County park shuttle service to end Sunday
Declining ridership drives officials to end two-year program
By Anna Schuessler
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
After transporting hundreds of Peninsula
residents to Edgewood and Wunderlich parks,
the San Mateo County Parks Department will
wind down its weekend shuttle service
Sunday following a two-year run.
Launched in 2016 to reduce the barriers res-
idents in parts of East Palo Alto, the east side
of Menlo Park and unincorporated North Fair
Oaks were facing in accessing county parks,
the shuttle’s ridership declined to 434 in its
second year of service after reaching 830 in
its first year, explained county parks spokes-
woman Carla Schoof.
She said officials plan to continue explor-
ing ways to partner with community groups
and support trips to county parks from
neighborhoods where fewer residents own
cars, but they will no longer pursue grants to
fund the service and will discontinue it after
Aug. 26.
A study launched more than two years ago
to understand the barriers for county resi-
dents who weren’t visiting parks revealed
that nearly 20 percent of residents in areas
like Daly City, East Palo Alto, the Belle
Haven neighborhood of Menlo Park and
unincorporated North Fair Oaks don’t own
cars, said Schoof. Because Edgewood and
Wunderlich parks are several miles away
from those neighborhoods, the study
sparked interest among officials to find ways
to make the parks accessible to those who
hadn’t explored them as frequently.
“We want those folks to be there just as
COURTESY OF SAN MATEO COUNTY PARKS
After a two-year run, the San Mateo County
Parks weekend shuttle service’s last day will
be Sunday due to declining ridership on the
two routes running from Menlo Park and East
Palo Alto to Edgewood and Wunderlich parks,
with stops in Redwood City and
unincorporated North Fair Oaks.
much as the folks who already know about
the parks and use them,” she said.
Schoof said officials worked with commu-
nity groups such as the Siena Youth Center in
North Fair Oaks as well as the Ravenswood
Family Health Center and the East Palo Alto
Library to spread the word about the shuttle’s
two routes, which stem from East Palo Alto
and Menlo Park and made stops at the Fair
Oaks Community Center and downtown
Redwood City before arriving at the two
parks.
She said officials and the community
groups who supported the shuttle are hoping
to build on the success they had in introduc-
ing many new visitors to the parks and devel-
op other ways to support trips such as educa-
tional field trips or as part of a health and
nutrition program.
“We’re definitely looking at building upon
the relationships that we already have,” she
said.
Even with some $200,000 in funds from
the San Mateo County Transportation
Authority and additional funds from the San
Mateo County Parks Foundation and Measure
K to support the two-year program, Schoof
said the cost of operating the shuttle com-
bined with its declining ridership motivated
officials to stop offering the shuttle and
search for other ways of transporting resi-
dents to parks instead.
“It takes time to inspire people to do some-
thing different,” she said. “It takes a signifi-
cant amount of effort as well as time and you
typically don’t see that in two years.”
The last day of service for the San Mateo
County Park Shuttle will be Aug. 26. Visit

Man in BART stabbing eligible for death penalty
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
OAKLAND — Prosecutors on Wednesday
added charges that could qualify a man for
the death penalty if he’s convicted of stab-
bing 18-year-old Nia Wilson to death at a
train station in Oakland.
Alameda County prosecutors added the
special-circumstances enhancement of
“lying in wait” to the charges against John
Cowell, who didn’t enter a plea during a
court hearing.
Cowell, 27, is charged with murder in the
fatal stabbing of Wilson last month as she
Man charged with felonies for
beating 77-year-old at car wash
A Burlingame man accused of punching
and pushing a 77-year-old man at a Foster
City car wash Saturday has been charged
with felony elder abuse, assault and battery
charges, according to the San Mateo
County District Attorney’s Office.
Scott Wilson, 49, was allegedly driving a
Mercedes Benz in line behind another cus-
tomer at the Touchless Car Wash at 390
Foster City Blvd. around 5 p.m. Aug. 18
when he became angry at the 77-year-old
man driving the car in front of him for not
moving fast enough, according to prosecu-
tors.
The man in front of Wilson allegedly got
out of his car to tip an employee, causing
Wilson to honk several times and yell at the
man to move his car. Wilson then allegedly
got out of his car and punched the victim on
the left side of his face with a closed fist,
knocking the man’s glasses off and causing
him to lose his balance, according to pros-
ecutors.
Wilson allegedly pushed the man several
times, and surveillance footage shows the
victim was pushed against the rear of his
car. He then allegedly fled the scene and was
found at his home by police, according to

Wilson, who is in custody on $125,000

judge he plans to post bail and hire his own

Thursday with an attorney and enter a plea,
according to prosecutors.
Police seek video footage in
ride-hailing sex assault case
San Mateo police are seeking anyone
with video footage of State Route 92
between Highway 101 and Half Moon Bay
between 5:45 p.m. and 7 p.m. Aug. 14 in
their search for a man posing as a ride-hail-
ing driver who sexually assaulted a woman
at that time.
The video footage could be from dash
cams, helmet-mounted devices, outward-
facing cameras on vehicles and cellphones,
according to police.
The request stems from a case in which a
woman reported an assault on the 1400
block of Fashion Island Boulevard after she
was picked up near State Route 92 by a driv-
er claiming to be affiliated with a ride-hail-
ing company. She said she was taken to a
remote area and assaulted before she
appeared in court for the
first time that there has-
n’t been any evidence of a
hate crime but that such a
charge could be filed if
investigators find any
proof of that as a motive.

fled in a gray four-door

Police warn of three
recent home burglaries
San Mateo County sheriff’s officials said
Tuesday they are investigating at least three
home burglaries in the Portola Valley area
in the past few days.
The burglaries occurred on the 600 block
of Westridge Drive, 100 Degas Road and
100 Ash Lane, and two occurred in the
evening hours, according to the Sheriff’s
Office.
Investigators believe the suspects
knocked on the doors of the homes to con-
firm no one was home prior to breaking in.
Anyone with information about the bur-
glaries is encouraged to call Detective
Derespini at (650) 363-4055.

“I’m deeply concerned that they’re now
seeking death, possibly for someone that
has severe, severe mental illness,” Woods
said.
“What we have here is someone who was
released by a state hospital just 75 days
before this incident,” Woods added. “He suf-
fers from severe mental illness, and that’s
why we’re here today.”
Whether or not prosecutors decide to seek
the death penalty will occur after a hearing
in which a judge will determine if Cowell
should be held on his charges. A date for
that hearing has not yet been set.
Air quality poor, residents advised
to stay inside through weekend
Smoky air conditions are expected
through Sunday, according to the Bay Area
Air Quality Management District, and resi-
dents are encouraged to stay inside with the
windows closed and set air conditioners to
recirculate until the conditions subside.
Forecasters had expected the conditions
to subside, but that forecast changed
because the marine layer, a shallow cool
layer of air near the ground, has been deeper
than anticipated.
Smoky air at higher altitudes expanded to
the ground level due to that marine layer and
strong onshore winds, according to district
officials.
These conditions particularly impact
children, the elderly and anyone with respi-
ratory problems, so anyone in those groups
should take precautions to avoid exposure.
In general, smoky conditions can cause
irritation of the eyes, throat and sinuses.
Coughing and wheezing can also occur,
especially for anyone with asthma or
emphysema.
Real-time air quality readings from
throughout the Bay Area are available
online at https://go.usa.gov/xUwyz, cour-
tesy of the air district.

The new Salesforce Transit Center near the heart of downtown is expected to accommodate 100,000 passengers each weekday.
S.F’s $2.2B ‘Grand Central’ terminal open

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO — Spanning three
city blocks, San Francisco’s $2 billion
transit terminal is open after nearly a
decade under construction.
Coined the “Grand Central of the
West,” the new Salesforce Transit
Center near the heart of downtown is
expected to accommodate 100,000 pas-
sengers each weekday, and up to 45 mil-
lion people a year. It welcomed its first
passengers and visitors this month.
Enveloped in wavy white sheets of
metal veil, the five-level center
includes a bus deck, a towering sky-lit
central entrance hall and a rooftop park
with an outdoor amphitheater.
The complex faced delays in putting

bids were ultimately higher than
expected. The terminal’s cost rose from
$1.6 billion at its 2010 groundbreak-
ing to more than $2 billion in 2016
because of what one analyst called
“optimistic assumptions.”
The project, a commanding presence
in the city’s South of Market neighbor-
hood, is financed by land sales, federal
stimulus grants, district fees and taxes,
bridge tolls, and federal and state funds.
On a recent weekday, the rooftop park
was flooded with locals and tourists
who were enjoying the sunny weather
for picnics.
“I think it’ll be like the High Line in
New York,” said Lissa Gould, 65, who
likened the new park to New York’s 1.5

“It’s great for the workers and people

Others herald the terminal as the
American West’s “Grand Central,” a ref-
erence to New York City’s world-famous
Grand Central Terminal opened in
1913. That train station accommodates
750,000 visitors daily and has been
featured in numerous well-known

plans for a three-platform train station

construction in California’s Central

pot convictions
By Paul Elias
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO — A bill requiring California prosecutors
to erase or reduce tens of thousands of marijuana criminal con-
victions was approved by the state
Legislature on Wednesday and now awaits
Gov. Jerry Brown’s signature.
When voters passed Proposition 64 in
2016 to allow adult use of marijuana, they
also eliminated several pot-related crimes.
The proposition also applied retroactively
to pot convictions, but provided no mech-
anism or guidance on how those eligible
Jerry Brown could erase their convictions or have
felonies reduced to misdemeanors.
The Senate passed a bill Wednesday that would make that
happen.
The bill orders the state Department of Justice to identify
eligible cases between 1975 and 2016 and send the results to
the appropriate prosecutor.
The state DOJ estimates that almost 220,000 cases are eli-
gible for erasure or reduction. The DOJ has until July 1, 2019,
to compile the list of eligible cases and forward it to the
appropriate district attorney’s office.
Prosecutors then have until Jul 1, 2020, to decide which
cases on the DOJ list they want to challenge.
Since passage of Proposition 64, most California district
attorneys have said they didn’t have the resources to review
their records to identify eligible cases.
Non-violent, felony convictions for possession or distri-
bution of less than an ounce of marijuana are eligible for
reductions to misdemeanors, though prosecutors can chal-
lenge applications based on the person’s criminal history.
Felons with serious convictions such as murder, rape and rob-
bery that are considered “strikes” under a California law requir-
ing stiff sentences for repeat offenders.
Some eligible people hired attorneys and petitioned courts
on their own and prosecutors in San Francisco and San Diego
counties reviewed past cases and took action on their own to
erase or reduces thousands of cases combined.

Three Confederate monuments

to stay at North Carolina Capitol
By Martha Waggoner
and Gary D. Robertson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

RALEIGH, N. C. — Three
Confederate monuments will
remain on the North Carolina
Capitol grounds, but with newly
added context about slavery and
civil rights. That’s the decision
from a state historical panel, two
days after protesters tore down
another rebel statue at the state’s
flagship university.
The state Historical
Commission was responding
Wednesday to Democratic Gov.
Roy Cooper’s request nearly a year
ago to move the monuments to a
nearby battlefield.
The commission voted 10-1 to
reinterpret the three monuments
with adjacent signs about “the
consequences of slavery” and the
“subsequent oppressive subjuga-
tion of African-American people.”
It urged construction of a memori-
al to black citizens, which has
been discussed for years, as soon
as possible. The group of academ-
ics, amateur historians and preser-
vationists also acknowledged that

U.S. Rep. Duncan D. Hunter speaks in San Diego.
Even under indictment,
congressman is favorite
By Michael R. Boold
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ALPINE — The indictment of
U.S. Rep. Duncan Hunter and his
wife that alleges they illegally
converted his campaign account
into a household checkbook
reorders his re-election contest,
giving Democrats a suddenly
stronger hand in a district that for
decades has embraced Republican
candidates.
But even with charges shadow-
ing him, it will be an upset if
Hunter loses.
Two months ago Hunter coasted
through the June primary despite
the ongoing FBI investigation
that produced the 60-count indict-
ment. His 30-point, first-place fin-
ish made him a strong favorite to
win a sixth term in November.
The 50th Congressional District

Republican in Southern

ly 15-point registration edge over
Democrats, and President Donald
Trump won the district by the same

name is some-
thing of a polit-
ical dynasty in
Margaret the area — his
Hunter father was elect-
ed to the seat in
1980 and held it until his son won
in 2008. Hunter’s Democratic
opponent, Ammar Campa-Najjar,
29, has never held elective office.
He won just over 17 percent of the
votes in June but that was good
enough for second place in the
state’s primary where the top-two
vote-getters advance to the general
election regardless of party.
A day after Hunter and his wife
were charged with looting his cam-
paign funds to finance family vaca-
tions, boozy restaurant binges and
shopping sprees, voters in
Hunter’s rural hometown of Alpine
were sharply divided on what it all
means.

Fed Chair Jerome Powell’s take on
economy is awaited as risks loom
By Martin Crutsinger
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Is financial turmoil in
Turkey and other emerging economies at risk
of spreading? Will America’s trade war with
China derail the U.S. economy? Does the
Federal Reserve have the means to fight the
next recession?
And: Is Chairman Jerome Powell troubled
by President Donald Trump’s public denunci-
ation of the Fed’s interest rate hikes?
When Powell gives the keynote address
Friday at an annual conference of central
bankers in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, the
world will be seeking any clues to his stance
on those questions — and how any of it
might affect the Fed’s rate policy.
If Powell sounds confident that the econo-
my won’t be unduly hurt by the Trump admin-
istration’s tariffs on imports or by a currency
crisis in developing markets, investors
would likely conclude that the Fed will keep
raising rates, albeit only gradually.
But if Powell sounds a message of concern,
it could be read as a sign that the Fed is con-
sidering slowing its hikes. A slower pace of
rate increases would be intended to encourage
continued borrowing and spending by com-
panies and individuals to drive economic
growth.
Amid the splendor of the Grant Teton
Mountains, the Fed chairman will speak to
his fellow central bankers — and the world
— beginning at 10 a.m. Eastern time. For

choice to lead the world’s most important
central bank, Jackson Hole will provide his
highest-profile platform to date — and his
first chance to respond publicly, if he wish-
es, to Trump’s recent criticism of the Fed’s
rate hikes.
This week, Trump complained in an inter-
view with Reuters that he was “not thrilled”
with Powell’s Fed for raising rates. It marked
the second time this summer that Trump had
publicly criticized the policymaking of the
four years under a false
name, said Dane Lang,
part of the family that
owns the dairy.
Yarrabee Farms did not
use the federal E-Verify
program, Lang said
Wednesday, correcting

company used the Social

ice. The family is now looking into adopt-

Fed, which by tradition has always func-
tioned independently of the White House and
free of political influence.
The Fed has been in the process of raising
its benchmark lending rate after keeping it at
a record low near zero for seven years to help
the economy recover from the Great
Recession. Having raised rates once in both
2015 and 2016, the Fed did so three times
last year and twice so far this year. In June,
its policymakers predicted a total of four rate

are required to reject documents that do not

increases this year, presumably one addi-
tional hike in September and one more in
December.
The series of modest rate hikes is intended
to prevent the economy from overheating
and inflation from accelerating. But higher
rates make borrowing costlier and can
depress stock prices. Some question whether
Trump’s trade war and the financial crises in
emerging nations might so endanger the
U.S. economy that the Fed would have to
slow or suspend its rate hikes — or even con-
sider cutting rates again.
“The Fed could be forced to act if incoming
economic data showed the U.S. economy was
hurting,” said Sung Won Sohn, chief econo-
mist at SS Economics, an economic consult-
ing firm. “There is a growing threat, and I
think it would be a mistake to believe the
problem will be limited to Turkey.”
Still, for now, Sohn and other analysts say
they think the Trump administration’s tit-
for-tat tariff battle and the turbulence abroad
remain benign threats occurring against the
backdrop of a robust U.S. economy. The U.S.
gross domestic product grew at a brisk 4.1
percent annual rate in the April-June quarter,
the fastest such pace since 2014.
Unemployment, at 3.9 percent, is near a 50-
year low.
“There will be a lot of talk on the sidelines
of the conference about trade and other
threats, but at the moment the U.S. economy
is going great and the Fed will keep raising
rates,” said Diane Swonk, chief economist at
Grant Thornton in Chicago.
those can be hard to catch.
E-Verify provides employers with photos
for passports and other federal documents
that they can compare with what an employ-
ee has given them, but not state-issued dri-
ver’s licenses or IDs. An employer in Iowa
presented with an unfamiliar out-of-state dri-
ver’s license may not be able to spot a fake.
“There is rampant fraud,” said Bill Riley, a
former U.S. Immigration and Customs
Enforcement agent who is now a senior
managing director at the consulting firm
Guidepost Solutions. “Even experts like
myself, we can say with fairly reasonable
certainty — but not 100 percent — whether
a document is fake or not.”

Two alleged agents of
Iran arrested for spying in U.S.
WASHINGTON — The U.S. has charged two alleged agents
of Iran, accusing them of conducting covert surveillance of
Israeli and Jewish facilities in the United States and collecting
intelligence on Americans linked to a political organization
that wants to see the current Iranian government overthrown.
Earlier this week, Ahmadreza Doostdar, 38, a dual U.S.-
Iranian citizen born in Long Beach, California, and Majid
Ghorbani, 59, who has lived and worked in Costa Mesa,
California, since he arrived in the United States in the mid-
1990s, were charged with acting as illegal agents for Tehran.
Ghorbani, who denies the charges, became a legal permanent
resident of the United States in 2015.
Their arrests come as the Trump administration ratchets up
pressure on Iran. The administration recently re-imposed
sanctions on Iran to deny Tehran the funds it needs to finance
terrorism, its missile program and forces in conflicts in
Yemen and Syria.

Democratic official: DNC

stopped hack attempt of voter file
CHICAGO — The Democratic National Committee says it
has thwarted an attempt to hack its database that houses infor-
mation on tens of millions of voters across the country.
A party official said DNC contractors notified the party
Tuesday of an apparent hacking attempt. The committee noti-
fied law enforcement. The official said no information was
compromised.
The party official said it’s not clear what third party was
attempting the hack.
Bob Lord is the DNC’s chief security officer. He briefed the
leaders of state parties on the matter at a party gathering this
morning in Chicago. The DNC distributes the voter file to
state parties for Democratic candidates to use the information.
Lord said in a statement afterward that the Trump adminis-
tration is not doing enough to protect American democracy.
Louisiana, Mississippi top
nation in illness from West Nile
NEW ORLEANS — Louisiana and Mississippi are leading
the nation in the number of people who have become serious-
ly ill from West Nile virus this year. State health departments
are warning residents to take precautions against mosquitoes,
which spread the virus.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says that as
of Aug. 21 , Louisiana had 18 cases of West Nile encephalitis
or meningitis, out of a national total of 133. Mississippi had
15 “neuroinvasive” cases, Texas 14 and California 12.
South Dakota had nine, Iowa seven, Nebraska six and
Alabama and Pennsylvania five each.
CDC figures lag behind state reports. Louisiana reports
there have been 31 residents with dangerous nervous system
infections and 13 cases of flu-like West Nile fever.
Mississippi has reported 25 total cases.

With no place to run, people in
Hawaii bracing for hurricane
By Jennifer Sinco Kelleher
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
HONOLULU — Hawaii residents emp-
tied store shelves Wednesday, claimed
the last sheets of plywood to board up
windows and drained gas pumps as
Hurricane Lane churned toward the state.
The category 4 storm could slam into
the islands Thursday with winds exceed-
ing 100 mph (161 kph), making it the
most powerful storm to hit Hawaii since
Hurricane Iniki in 1992.
Unlike Florida or Texas, where resi-
dents can get in their cars and drive hun-
dreds of miles to safety, people in
Hawaii are confined to the islands and
can’t outrun the powerful winds and driv-
ing rain.
Instead, they must stay put and make
sure they have enough supplies to out-
last prolonged power outages and other
potential emergencies.
“Everyone is starting to buckle down
at this point,” said Christyl Nagao of
Kauai. “Our families are here. We have
businesses and this and that. You just
have to man your fort and hold on
tight.”
Living in an isolated island state also
means the possibility that essential
goods can’t be shipped to Hawaii if the
storm shuts down ports.
“You’re stuck here and resources
might not get here in time,” Nagao said.
The National Weather Service said
Lane is expected to make a gradual turn
toward the northwest Wednesday, fol-
lowed by a more northward motion into
the islands on Thursday.
“The center of Lane will move very
close to or over the main Hawaiian
Islands from Thursday through
Saturday,” the weather service said.

Shelters were being readied to open on
Oahu, Maui, Molokai and Lanai.
Officials said they would open shelters
on other islands when needed. Officials
were also working to help Hawaii’s size-
able homeless population, many of
whom live near beaches and streams
that could flood.
Hawaii Emergency Management
Agency Administrator Tom Travis said
there’s not enough shelter space
statewide. He advised those who are not
in flood zones to stay home.
Many residents were trying to rein-
force older homes made with single-wall
construction.

Big oil asks government to protect it from climate change

By Will Weissert
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
PORT ARTHUR, Texas — As the
nation plans new defenses against the
more powerful storms and higher tides
expected from climate change, one
project stands out: an ambitious pro-
posal to build a nearly 60-mile “spine”
of concrete seawalls, earthen barriers,
floating gates and steel levees on the
Texas Gulf Coast.
Like other oceanfront projects, this
one would protect homes, delicate
ecosystems and vital infrastructure,
but it also has another priority — to
shield some of the crown jewels of the
petroleum industry, which is blamed
for contributing to global warming
and now wants the federal government
to build safeguards against the conse-
quences of it.
The plan is focused on a stretch of
coastline that runs from the Louisiana
border to industrial enclaves south of
Houston that are home to one of the
world’s largest concentrations of
petrochemical facilities, including
most of Texas’ 30 refineries, which
represent 30 percent of the nation’s
refining capacity.
Texas is seeking at least $12 billion
for the full coastal spine, with nearly
all of it coming from public funds. Last
month, the government fast-tracked an
initial $3.9 billion for three separate,
smaller storm barrier projects that
would specifically protect oil facilities.
That followed Hurricane Harvey,
which roared ashore last Aug. 25 and
swamped Houston and parts of the
coast, temporarily knocking out a
quarter of the area’s oil refining capac-
ity and causing average gasoline
prices to jump 28 cents a gallon
nationwide. Many Republicans argue
that the Texas oil projects belong at
the top of Washington’s spending list.

With the White House stung by Cohen
accusation, Donald Trump fires back
By Zeke Miller, Catherine
Lucey and Ken Thomas
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — President
Donald Trump accused his former
lawyer Michael Cohen of lying
under pressure of prosecution
Wednesday as his White House
grappled with allegations that the
president had orchestrated a cam-
paign cover-up to buy the silence
of two women who claimed he had
affairs with them.
Confronting mounting legal
and political threats, Trump took
to Twitter to accuse Cohen of mak-
ing up “stories in order to get a
‘deal”’ from federal prosecutors.
Cohen pleaded guilty Tuesday to
eight charges, including cam-
paign finance violations that he
said he carried out in coordination
with Trump. Behind closed doors,
Trump expressed worry and frustra-
tion that a man intimately familiar
with his political, personal and
business dealings for more than a
decade had turned on him.
Yet his White House signaled no
clear strategy for managing the
fallout. At a White House briefing,
press secretary Sarah Huckabee
Sanders insisted at least seven
times that Trump had done noth-
ing wrong and was not the subject
of criminal charges. She referred
substantive questions to the presi-
dent’s personal counsel Rudy
Giuliani, who was at a golf course
in Scotland. Outside allies of the
White House said they had
received little guidance on how to
respond to the events in their
appearances on cable news. And it
was not clear the West Wing was
assembling any kind of coordinat-
ed response.
Trump himself publicly denied
wrongdoing, sitting down with
his favored program “Fox &
Friends” for an interview set to air
Thursday. In the interview, he
argued, incorrectly, that the hush-
money payouts weren’t “even a
campaign violation” because he
subsequently reimbursed Cohen
for the payments personally
instead of with campaign funds.
Federal law restricts how much
individuals can donate to a cam-
paign, bars corporations from
making direct contributions and
requires the disclosure of transac-
tions.
Cohen had said Tuesday he
secretly used shell companies to
make payments used to silence
former Playboy model Karen
McDougal and adult-film actress
Stormy Daniels for the purpose of
influencing the 2016 election.
Trump has insisted that he only
found out about the payments after
they were made, despite the release

More dirt on the president?
Cohen’s lawyer suggests so
By Michael R. Sisak
and Jonathan Lemire
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — What other dirt
might Michael Cohen have on
Donald Trump?
Cohen’s lawyer says the presi-
dent’s former “fixer” has infor-
mation “on certain subjects that
should be of interest” to the spe-
cial prosecutor beyond his alle-
gations made while pleading
guilty Tuesday that Trump direct-
ed him to make hush-money
payments to fend off damage to
his White House bid.
His lawyer, Lanny Davis, on
Wednesday suggested that Cohen
could tell special counsel Robert
Mueller that Trump knew about
and encouraged Russian hacking
during the 2016 campaign
before it became publicly
known.
“What I’m suggesting is that
sation in which Trump and Cohen
can be heard discussing a deal to

rounding Trump — the guilty plea
by former lawyer Michael Cohen
and the fraud conviction of one-
time campaign chairman Paul

punch that left lawmakers strug-
gling for an appropriate response
ahead of the midterm campaigns.

echoed his “no collusion” retorts,
suggesting that, absent any evi-
dence that he worked with Russia to
influence the 2016 election, there

told CNN after having hedged
that point in earlier television

Cohen also has been said to be
willing to tell Mueller that
Trump knew in advance of a
2016 meeting at Trump Tower in
which the Republican candi-
date’s eldest son sought damag-
ing information from a Russian
lawyer about Hillary Clinton.
Cohen, who showed fierce loy-
alty as Trump’s personal lawyer,
said in court that Trump directed
him to arrange payments of
president had lied, with Sanders
calling the assertion “ridiculous.”
Yet she offered no explanation for
Trump’s shifting accounts.
As Trump vented his frustration,
White House aides sought to proj-
is just no high-crimes-and- misde-
meanors case for impeachment.
Democrats, meanwhile, are try-
ing to tamp down expectations
from their liberal base of taking
on the president for fear that
impeachment talk will cause GOP
voters to rally around Trump in
November.
The dynamic underscored the
political difficulty of impeach-
ment proceedings on Capitol Hill,
especially for Republicans who
have been reluctant to criticize the

alleged affairs before the elec-
tion. Trump denies the affairs.
Trump tweeted on Wednesday
that the campaign finance viola-
tions Cohen pleaded guilty to
“are not a crime.” He told “Fox &
Friends” that, because the pay-
ments came from him and not the
campaign, it’s “not even a cam-
paign violation.” Both claims
are wrong.
Nothing made public so far
from Cohen’s criminal case indi-
cates he has agreed to cooperate
with prosecutors, but Davis said
that was simply a “distinction

the conviction of former Trump
campaign chairman Paul Manafort
on financial charges.
Manafort faces trial on separate
charges in September in the
District of Columbia that include
acting as a foreign agent.
That Cohen was in trouble was
no surprise — federal prosecutors
raided his offices months ago —
but Trump and his allies were
caught off-guard when he also
pleaded guilty to campaign
finance crimes, which, for the
first time, took the swirling crim-
inal probes directly to the presi-
dent.
Both cases resulted, at least in
part, from the work of special
counsel Robert Mueller, who is
investigating Russia’s attempts to
sway voters in the 2016 election.
“The only thing that I have done
wrong, ” Trump tweeted late
Wednesday, “is to win an election
that was expected to be won by
Crooked Hillary Clinton and the
Democrats. The problem is, they
forgot to campaign in numerous
states!”
Meanwhile, Cohen’s lawyer,
Lanny Davis, said Wednesday that
Cohen has information “that
would be of interest” to the special
counsel.
“There are subjects that Michael
Cohen could address that would be
of interest to the special counsel,”
Davis said in a series of television
interviews. Davis also said Cohen
is not looking for a presidential
pardon.
Trump, in turn, praised Manafort
as “a brave man!” raising specula-
tion the former campaign opera-
tive could become the recipient of
a pardon.
Manafort, Trump wrote, had
“tremendous pressure on him and,
unlike Michael Cohen, he refused
to ‘break.”’ Sanders said the mat-
ter of a pardon for Manafort had
not been discussed.
Among Trump allies, the back-
to-back blows were a harbinger of
dark days to come for the presi-
dent. Democrats are eagerly antic-
ipating gaining subpoena power
over the White House — and many
are openly discussing the possi-
bility of impeaching Trump —
should they retake control of the
House in November’s midterm
elections. And even Trump loyal-
ists acknowledged the judicial
proceedings were a blow to the
GOP’s chances of retaining the
majority this year.
“They have survived the Russia
thing, but no one knows what’s
next,” said former campaign aide
Barry Bennett.

side the White House about next
steps and how damaging the legal
fallout was for the president.

S&P marks longest bull run

By Alex Veiga
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
The bull market in U.S. stocks
is now the longest on record.
The current bull run on Wall
Street became the longest in his-
tory on Wednesday at 3,453 days,
beating the bull market of the
1990s that ended in the dot-com
collapse in 2000.
That’s how long the benchmark
S&P 500 index of major U. S.
stocks has gone without a drop of
20 percent or more, the tradition-
al definition of a bear market.
Despite its long duration, this
bull market actually wasn’t as big
in terms of overall gains as the
1990s one.
The milestone arrived on a list-
less day of trading that left the
S&P 500 with a slight loss. Gains
by technology and energy compa-
nies outweighed losses in indus-
trial stocks, banks and other sec-
tors.

The S&P 500 index finished
with a loss of 1.14 points, or
0.04 percent, at 2,861.82. The
Dow Jones Industrial Average slid
88.69 points, or 0.3 percent, to
25,733.60. The Nasdaq compos-
ite gained 29.92 points, or 0.4
percent, to 7,889.10.
The Russell 2000 index of
smaller-company stocks picked
up 4.50 points, or 0.3 percent, to
1,722.54. The Russell marked its
second straight all-time high.

Can tech giants work together against their common enemies?

By Barbara Ortutay
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Facebook,
Twitter and Google routinely
squabble for users, engineers and
advertising money. Yet it makes
sense for these tech giants to work
together on security threats, elec-
tions meddling and other common
ills.
Such cooperation was evident
Tuesday when Facebook
announced that it had removed 652
suspicious pages, groups and
accounts linked to Russia and Iran.
This was followed by similar news
from Twitter. On Monday, mean-
while, Microsoft reported a new

Cooperation makes it easier for
tech companies to combat fraudu-
lent use of their services. It also
makes them look good in the eyes
of their users and regulators by
showing that they take the threats
seriously enough to set aside com-
petitive differences.
They have little other choice if
they want to avoid regulation and
stay ahead of — or just keep up
with — the malicious actors, who
are getting smarter and smarter at
evading the tech companies’ con-
trols.
Case in point: While Facebook
said there was no evidence that
Russian and Iranian actors cooper-
ated in the latest efforts to create
fake accounts to mislead users, the
company said their tactics were
similar. In other words, if the bad
guys are learning from each other,
the companies fighting them
would need to do the same.
Such efforts have helped other
industries stave off regulation.
For example, the movie industry
banded together to develop its
own ratings system in the 1960s
to ward off government censor-
ship.
The tech companies already
share information to fight terror-
ism, child pornography, malware
and spam. They are now adding
global political threats from
nation-states. In congressional
hearings earlier this year,
Facebook General Counsel Colin
Stretch said Facebook, Twitter and
Google have a “long history” of
working together on such threats.
He expressed hope that sharing
information becomes “industry
standard practice.”

Disney offers tuition for

hourly workers in tight job market
ORLANDO, Fla. — The Walt Disney Co. is
offering to pay full tuition for hourly work-
ers who want to earn a college degree, finish
a high school diploma or learn a new skill,
the entertainment giant said Wednesday.
As many as 80,000 hourly workers in the
United States could be eligible for the pro-
gram, which pays upfront tuition for
employees taking online classes starting
this fall.
Business brief
Disney initially will invest $50 million
into the “Disney Aspire” program and up to
$25 million a year after that, the company
said.
“We can’t wait to see what paths our cast
members take with Disney Aspire,” the com-
pany said in a blog post.
Disney joins other large corporations that
have begun paying tuition for workers in a
job market with historically low unemploy-
ment.
Is Santa real? Version of Alexa
skirts some questions from kids
By Joseph Pisani
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — A version of Alexa won’t
tell kids where babies come from or spill the
beans about Santa. It also won’t explain
some things kids might have heard on the
news — like what Stormy Daniels does for a
living.
Amazon updated its voice assistant with a
feature that can make Alexa more kid-friend-
ly. When the FreeTime feature is activated,
Alexa answers certain questions differently.
Asked where babies come from, for exam-
ple, the kid version tells youngsters to ask
a grown-up.
Amazon.com Inc. says it worked with
child psychologists for some of Alexa’s
answers, and that the voice assistant is
“always getting smarter” with updated
answers.
“Alexa isn’t intended to be a replacement
parent or caregiver,” the company said in a
statement. “So we believe it’s important we
treat these answers with empathy and point
the child to a trusted adult when applicable.”
FreeTime has other features, such as keep-
ing Alexa from playing songs with curse
words. Asked to play a Cardi B song, it
played a version of the rapper’s “Bodak
Yellow” with the explicit lyrics removed.
Parents can also set times for Alexa not to
answer when kids should be studying or
sleeping. “Sorry I can’t play right now, try
again later,” it says during down times. And
it also tries to encourage kids to yell out
questions and commands more politely,
thanking them if they include the word
“please.”
Still, the Campaign for a Commercial-
Free Childhood and other child development
advocates warned parents that the kid-
friendly voice assistant puts children’s pri-
vacy at risk and limits interactions with
people. Amazon says it takes privacy and
security seriously, and says parents and kids
can use the device together.
FreeTime, which can be turned on in the
Alexa app, is available on the Echo, Echo
Plus and Echo Dot devices. Amazon is also
selling an Echo Dot Kids Edition with a col-
orful case and a 2-year warranty that costs
$79, about $30 more than a regular Echo
Dot.

A tsunami of change in CSUS fill its AD

slot — for now
the PAL Ocean Division B
By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
As the middle tier in the three-division
format of the Peninsula Athletic League, the
makeup of the Ocean Division has tradition-
ally been in flux. This season, though, the
usual ripples of ingoing and outgoing teams
stand to build into some serious waves.
Moving down from the Bay Division is
Burlingame, a team that last fell to the Ocean
Division five years ago. It took the Panthers
just one season to move back up to the Bay
after running the table through five league
games in 2013, outscoring Ocean opponents
by a demoralizing differential of 216-48.
“I think our goal is always to play in the
Bay Division, ” Burlingame head coach
John Philipopoulos said. “I think that’s
where we prefer to be. That’s where our bread
is buttered, so to speak. … I think the play-
ers were disappointed (in moving to the
Ocean Division) but that’s a good thing. I
like that attitude.”
Speaking of attitude, San Mateo is mov-
ing up from the lower Lake Division. The
PAL’s decision to promote the Bearcats is a
head-scratcher, seeing as they finished in a
mere third-place tie in the Lake. Lake cham-
pion Jefferson lobbied to stay in the Lake
Division, despite having the largest roster
of players in the PAL and returning four all-
leaguers.
“It came down to a league vote,” Jefferson
head coach Will Maddux said. “They got
voted up and we got voted down. I told them
we would move up but [San Mateo] wanted
to do it.”
San Mateo head coach Jeff Scheller cited
the team’s competitive showing in Lake
games last year, despite a 2-3 record. The
Bearcats lost 31-27 to Jefferson; 21-14 to
second-place Carlmont; and 14-10 to co-
third-place Capuchino to close the year.
“It wasn’t like it was blowouts,” Scheller
said. “We made mistakes. We should have
won all of them.”

ill Whitmore will try to provide
some stability leading the
Crystal Springs Uplands School
athletics program.
For the next year, anyway.
It’s been quite a whirlwind for the
Hillsborough school’s athletic depart-
ment as Whitmore is the Gryphons’
fourth AD in about year. Former AD
Michael Flynn stepped down at the end of
the 2017 season and was replaced by Rob
Cannone, a longtime coach at the
school, as interim AD last year. A new AD
was introduced in the
spring, but didn’t
stick around long.
“He was here for
three weeks,”
Whitmore said, who
added he didn’t know
why his predecessor
left.
After all,
Whitmore has only
been on the job for
eight days and was
alerted to the job
about two weeks
ago.
“I was retired,” Whitmore said, who had
coached basketball, including the head
coach at University of Vermont and an
assistant at St. Bonaventure, and served
as an AD for a total of 43 years before
retiring from Bedford High School in
New Hampshire following the 2016-17
school year.
“Life was good,” Whitmore continued.
“I was consulting at schools for three or
four months, then coaching basketball. I
wasn’t bored. Not once. I wasn’t plan-
ning on doing this.”
An East Coast native, having spent the
last 43 years in the New England/Upstate
New York area, it seemed divine interven-

Hillsborough.

7:30 p.m.
Outl o o k: Burlingame may be back in the
PAL Ocean Division for the first time since
2013, but its defense may still be a Bay
Division-caliber unit.
Burlingame Panthers
While the Panthers went 1-4 in the Bay
Division last season — prompting a demo-
tion — their defense only blew up once in
league play in a 39-15 loss to eventual
Northern California Division 3-A champion
Half Moon Bay.
Through Burlingame’s other four league
games, its defense surrendered no more than
17 points in any one game; and that came in
its only Bay Division win, 28-17 over
Sacred Heart Prep. Otherwise, the Panthers
held the Bay Division in check, including a
14-8 loss to second-place Aragon and a 14-
10 loss to third-place Menlo-Atherton.
Senior two-way starter Noah Lavulo is the
star power at defensive tackle, a 6-2, 215-
pound smashmouth extraordinaire. He
earned All-Bay Division honors as an offen-
sive lineman last season, but his impact is
felt both sides of the ball.
“Noah is an excellent football player,”
Burlingame head coach John Philipopoulos
said. “He plays with a great motor … he
plays with great passion. He is a true foot-
ball player in every sense of the word.”
The Panthers have outstanding returning
depth in the box. Curtis Lauti, a 5-11, 200-
pound senior, complements Lavulo at defen-
sive tackle. And both defensive ends return
as well in senior Youcef Benchohra and
Dylan Neeley, both of whom draw rave
reviews from Philipopoulos for not just
their ability to cover ground, but the chem-
istry with which they do so, highlighted by
a play last year against SHP in which Neeley
caused a fumble and Benchohra scooped it up
and punched it in to the end zone.
“They may be not only the best defensive
ends in the league,” Philipopoulos said,
“but in the entire county.”
Philipopoulos will continue to serve as
offensive coordinator for the surefire wing-
T, banking on the usual backfield depth. The
Panthers have surpassed the 2,000-yard
rushing plateau in at least each of the past
five seasons, including 3,301 ground yards
the last time they played in the Ocean
Division in 2013.
“We have probably three horses in the
backfield,” Philipopoulos said. “So we’re
very excited about our backfield trio.
They’re potentially the best three running
backs we’ve ever had. … So, we’re going to
try to run, and try to run downhill. That’s
what we do.”
That group is highlighted by returners
Benchohra and Lauti as first-year starters,
with newcomer Lucas Meredith adding depth.
Meredith’s older brother Alec graduated after
leading the team in rushing last season.
At quarterback, Burlingame has a platoon
slated for Friday’s season opener against
Sacred Heart Prep between sophomore Wyatt
McGovern and junior Jordan Malashus.
“They’re kind of in a week-to-week race to
the point where we’ve expressed we’re
going to go 50-50 with playing time in
Friday’s opener,” Philipopoulos said.

Outl o o k: Success is no longer an option
for Hillsdale football. What was once seen as
an aberration, winning is the new norm for
the Knights, who have posted winning
record four of the last five years and making
CCS appearances in 2013, 2015 and last sea-
son.
“These kids have had some success,” head
coach Mike Parodi said. “I have no problem
feeling confident about their skills and abil-
ity as long as they can back it up. They
expect to be at the level we’ve been at.”
Hillsdale Fighting Knights
There will, undoubtedly, be growing pains
as the Knights will be revamping their
offensive personnel. Senior J.P. Lyssenko
moves into the quarterback position, where
he got one start last season — in a semifinal
loss to eventual CCS Division 5 champion
Gilroy —  and appeared in a total of three
games.
“We’re young. We have a lot of newcomers
coming up,” Parodi said. “The key to us is
embracing our youth and athleticism.”
The running backs will also be carrying a
heavier load this season after seeing limited
touches last year. Senior Quincy Sherman,
who played mostly receiver last year, did get
some carries in the backfield. He has shown
enough burst and wiggle to make him a
threat any time he touches the ball.
Sharing the running back chores will be
junior Kasimili Tongamoa — who goes by
the moniker of “Baby,” because he is the
baby of his family.
But Tongamoa most certainly plays like a
man. Listed a running back and linebacker,
the 6-1, 230-pound Tongamoa could surprise
teams this season with his quickness.
“He’s quite nimble,” Parodi said. “His first
varsity touchdown against Sacred Heart Prep
was 27 yards and it was all zigs and zags.
Five cuts. He shook about two or three
guys.”
Nathan “Rabbit” Iskander will serve as
both a running back and receiver, assuming
the role Sherman had last season.
The offensive line appears to be young
with a number of players moving from the
JV ranks, but they appear to be more than
capable. Drew Aspillera, a junior, already has
plenty of varsity experience under his belt,
excelling as a designated hitter for the
Knights’ baseball team this past spring.
Joining him on the line is another junior,
Gio Braccini-Lopez. Dominic Savage, a sen-
ior, is one of the few returners, but he has cer-
tainly earned plenty of playing time season.
“He never missed a day of anything in his
life,” Parodi said. “He’s the first dude here,

BURLINGAME
No ah Lav ul o (Sr. , G/ DT): The
two-way standout earned All-PAL
Bay honors as a guard last season,
so he figures to be even more effec-
tive in the Ocean Division. And he
is surrounded by returners who held
league opponents to a surprisingly
low point total in 2017 considering
Burlingame’s 1-4 league record.
Yo ucef Bencho hra (Sr. ,
RB/ DE): Not only is the senior
part of a dynamic duo on defense,
along with defensive end Dylan
Neeley, but on offense he brings the
most rushing yards of any returning
player.
HILLSDALE
Qui ncy Sherman (Sr. ,
RB/ DB): The Knights have been
blessed with a number of outstand-
Players to watch
ing running backs over the last sev-
eral years. Sherman has a chance to
be the latest. He showed the ability
to make plays last season, finish-
ing with 731 yards of total offense.
Ty l e r De h o f f (So . ,
OL/ DL/ LB): Whenever a sopho-
more makes the varsity squad, big
things are expected of him. Coach
Mike Parodi will help make the
transition easier by having Dehoff
focus mostly on the defensive side
of the ball.
SAN MATEO
Matt Ang el (Sr. , MLB/ OT): A
shoulder injury in last years season
finale forced Angel to undergo sur-
gery in the offseason. It is still ques-
tionable what his status is to open
the year, but if and when he is cleared
to play, he is as aggressive of a tack-
ler as anyone in a Bearcats uniform.
Shadi Qo bti (So . , C/ DL): A
first-year sophomore, Qobti has
big shoes to fill, as his brother
George was an outstanding two-
way player at San Mateo. Head
coach Jeff Scheller is quick to
point out they are two different
people, but that Shadi Qobti pos-
sesses a unique spark.
SEQUOIA
Dav i d Tuak al au ( S r. ,
RB/ OLB): The Cherokees return
their three top rushers from last
year, with Tuakalau leading the
pack. He totaled 513 ground yards
as a junior in a balanced offensive
attack. And this year, Sequoia may
rely more on the run.
Adam Jo h n s t o n ( S r. ,
C/ LB ) : If the Cherokees’ run
game is going to succeed, they are
going to have to establish them-
selves between the tackles. With
two first-year starters manning the
guard positions, Johnston’s cen-
ter experience is key.
SOUTH CITY
De me t ri us Gut u ( S r. ,
TE/ DE): With a new coaching
staff installing a challenging veer
offense, Gutu still projects as a
leading passing target. He certain-
ly was last year when he was one
of just two non-seniors to earn
All-PAL Ocean Division honors
on offense. This is a resume

2 0 1 8 o pener: Friday at El Camino,
7:30 p.m.
Outl o o k: High turnover and finishing
in third place in the Peninsula Athletic
League Lake Division didn’t stop San
Mateo from jumping at the chance to move
up to the Ocean Division in 2017.
With neither Lake Division champion
Jefferson nor second-place Carlmont
wanting to move up to a more competitive
division, San Mateo head coach Jeff
Scheller was keen to challenge his roster
of 35 players. And what a challenge it will
be with a majority non-senior roster.
Just to make things interesting, San
Mateo converts its offense from pro-style
to the triple-read option, relying on first-
year varsity quarterback Luke Bergstrom
— a 5-11, 160-pound junior — to lead the
transition.
“We have a quarterback that can read
well,” Scheller said. “He’s going to be
challenged. But we feel with the personnel
we have, it’s going to be solid.”
As the Bearcats’ offensive coordinator,
Scheller didn’t take the transition lightly.
He consulted with a former teammate from
College of San Mateo in Half Moon Bay
head coach Keith Holden. No one in the
county has had as much success with the
read-option package as Holden, who uti-
lized the improvisational smashmouth
ballet approach to see HMB to the state
championship stage last season.
San Mateo has some experience in its
backfield in senior William Bradford.
While the 6-foot, 200-pounder is a first-
year starter, he was the first man off the
Just to make things interesting,

bench last year while taking 53 carries for
220 yards.
Where the Bearcats have a chance to turn
heads, though, is up front. All of the start-
ing experience on offense is on the line,
yet the buzz around first-year center Shadi
Qobti is irresistible. It has been two years
since graduated George Qobti patrolled the
o-line and middle linebacker with stun-
ning results, but his younger brother fig-
ures to be even more exciting.
“He’s a little bit bigger than George,”
Scheller said. “Obviously, he plays center
but he’s very similar. I think Shadi has a
little bit more of a spark. George was a lit-
tle more business like. But Shadi is going
to be a really good player.”
Three returning linemen are slated to
start Friday’s opener: senior tackle Manny
Burgueno, 6-3, 270-pound guard Jason
Ammari and 5-11, 270-pound Sam
Kolokohakaufisi. Senior tackle Matt
Angel is questionable for Friday’s game
due to the lingering effects of offseason
shoulder surgery, but could give San Mateo
even greater breadth of experience.
Angel’s presence figures to be more cru-
cial on the other side of the ball though.
As a middle linebacker in the 4-2-5 base
defense, everything defensive coordinator
Brian Bold does is central to the middle
backer spot, which also sees first-year jun-
ior Kevin Pelaez join the fray.
“Our defensive guys are really coached
up well,” Scheller said. “They are tena-
cious. So I think, you talk about all 11, I
don’t know if there’s one strength.
They’re flying around out there … but I
would say the core is the front seven.”

2 0 1 8 o pener: at Newport Harbor-
Newport Beach
Outl o o k: Road trip!
Tenth-year head coach Robert Poulos is
the king of the non-league travel schedule
in San Mateo County. In recent years, the
Cherokees have taken their annual road
trip to out-of-state venues in Oregon,
Utah and Idaho.
The trips usually land at the end of the
non-league slate. But not this year, as
Sequoia opens the season in Newport
Beach Friday night to take on Newport
Harbor, 15 miles from where Sequoia
played its travel game last season in Week
4 at Orange High School.
“The only week we could make it work
was this first week,” Poulos said. “So, it’s
a little weird.”
The ground attack should help normal-
ize the weirdness factor though. While
Sequoia ran a well-balanced attack in the
wing-T offense last season — 1,969 total
yards of offense, 1,538 passing, 1,431
rushing —  the emphasis will be on an
experienced backfield with the team’s top
three gainers returning in David Tuakalau
(513 yards), Jesse Carthy (493) and
Robert Marticorena (269).
“I think we’re going to be more run-
heavy this year,” Poulos said.
That should extend to the quarterback
position as well, where Sequoia is three
players deep. Senior returner Sione Tuaki
takes the helm this year as the slated
starter, with newcomers Lio Lauese and
Emiliano Anaya in the mix. All three
should see significant time in the defen-
sive secondary as well.
“It’s his first year ever in pads
and he took the job from the
other (returning) kid.”
— Robert Poulos, Sequoia head coach on
Daniel Martinez winning a starting spot
Up front, senior center Adam Johnston
will anchor the line. His experience will
loom large as he is bookended by two
first-year guards, Raul Ramirez and Daniel
Martinez, though the rookie-factor is not
out of necessity; one of the guard spots
was earmarked for a returning lineman
until Martinez impressed and wrestled the
starting job.
“It’s his first year ever in pads,” Poulos
said, “and he took the job from the other
(returning) kid.”
Senior receiver Jordan Barnes will deter-
mine much of the aerial depth. Last year,
now-graduated Duncan Stewart earned PAL
Ocean Division Utility Player of the Year
honors while hauling in a team-best 50
catches for 936 yards. Barnes ranked sec-
ond on the team with 16 for 268, and has
made strides this year.
“He’s really blossomed this offseason,”
Poulos said.
Sequoia’s 4-2-5 defense will see a major-
ity of its starting 11 playing both ways.
Inside linebacker Johnston and
Marticorena are the heart of the defense,
and are both fully healthy coming off a
2017 season in which each battled
through injuries. They still logged 50 and
46 tackles, respectively. Marticorena
turned in one of the defensive plays of the
year in the season-finale win over Menlo
with a strip and score.
“Last year we didn’t have our starters;
they got banged up,” Poulos said. “Now,
this year we’re returning both starters and
we have solid backups behind them.”
Sequoia enters Friday’s opener with 37
players on its active roster, and possibly
nine more on the way in the coming
weeks.
“We’ve had bigger numbers before,”
Poulos said. “But this is one of our
biggest years for depth.”

Kyler Murray has been picked as Oklahoma’s starting

The seventh-ranked Sooners said Wednesday that Murray
will start the season-opener Sept. 1 against Florida

The Oakland A’s took Murray with the ninth pick in the
Major League Baseball draft this summer, but he chose to
return to school for a year. He was the backup to Heisman

a 66-yard dash on the first play of the game against West
Virginia.
Murray and Austin Kendall battled throughout the spring

Kendall was the backup two years ago. He connected on

Teen arrested and another

PHILADELPHIA — Police say one teenager has been

Philadelphia homicide Lt. Norman Davenport says a 15-
year-old was arrested and officers are looking for a 16-year-

2 0 1 8 o pener: vs. Woodside, Fri., 7:30
p.m.
Outl o o k: When first-year head coach
Jerome Lee arrived at South City, he imme-
diately took notice of the impressive ath-
leticism of his varsity roster.
Unfortunately for Lee, the depth of that
roster isn’t nearly as impressive.
The Warriors may carry as many as 30
players this season — eventually. Heading
into Friday’s season opener against
Woodside, however, the number is a scant
22, forcing Lee to call up bodies from the
junior-varsity squad just to fill out the ros-
South City Warriors
ter.
“That’s our weakness right now,” Lee
said. “We’re lacking depth.”
One of the players the Warriors will be
without for Week 1 is senior Demetrius
Gutu, a 6-3, 230-pound two-way player
who earned All-PAL Ocean Division honors
last year as a tight end, a player who Lee
said is “definitely on the radar” of Division
I colleges.
Coming from Independence High
School-San Jose, where he served as defen-
sive coordinator last season, Lee brought
with him offensive coordinator Darvale
Jackson, who installed an innovative new
veer offense — a mainstay of juggernaut De
La Salle-Concord — while mixing in “a lit-
tle pistol.”
“The personnel is taking to it quite
well,” Lee said.
Senior quarterback Frank House will be
relied upon to run the offensive show, so
much so that while the 6-foot, 165-pound
senior also lists as a defensive back, he
will be used exclusively on offense, despite
depleted South City’s need to utilize all the
personnel it can.
“He’s the captain of our team, a real
leader … and he’s done everything we ask,”
“That’s our weakness right now. We’re lacking depth.”
Lee said. “He’s been the perfect role model.
… I can’t afford to have him on defense this
year.”
Senior wide receiver Joseph Nazzal is a
bolt-from-the-blue talent that, while under-
sized at 5-10, 130 pounds, is slated as
House’s No. 1 target, at least until Gutu
returns. As a junior last season, perhaps in
part to his size, Nazzal played junior-varsi-
ty.
“Which I couldn’t believe,” Lee said.
Offensive tackle Solomon Lopez is in a
similar boat, though he last played JV two
years ago, opting not to play at all last sea-
son. The first-year varsity senior is now
tabbed as a two-way starter. At 6-1, 345
pounds, Lopez will play defense at nose
tackle.
Complementing Lopez at tackle is
another sizable force in second-year starter
Antonio Penate, a 6-2, 265-pound senior.
At center, 5-6, 190-pound Marco Pena
shouldn’t be underestimated.
“I think we’re going to be strong up
front,” said Lee, who is banking on South
City keeping with tradition in being able
to run the ball. This year’s backfield cast
— Jerome Lee
includes senior Lance Sanz —  also the
defensive captain at strong safety — junior
Dominic Cayabyab and junior Josh
Joachin.
Serving as the defensive coordinator, Lee
has dismantled the 30 stack to install the
4-2-5, with yet another first-year senior,
Braulio Prado patrolling linebacker. Logan
Taylor, a 6-2, 285-pound junior two-way
lineman at guard and defensive tackle, also
returns to the football program after not
playing last year.
“A few of the guys, they are first-time
starters on varsity,” Lee said. “But I’m also
the defensive coordinator on varsity, so
we’ve developed quite a chemistry. …
They’ve been pretty good about picking up
the defense. And we’re going to run with
it.”
Prior to his one year at Independence,
Lee served as Woodside’s junior-varsity
coach for two seasons. It just so happens
South City opens play Friday against
Woodside, which Lee said is entirely a
coincidence.

Still, what made the difference was the
Bearcats’ desire to move up.
The decision took guts. San Mateo last
played in the Ocean Division in 2014 and
suffered an abysmal 0-5 league record. But
the Bearcats had the most intriguing feeder
system of any team to play in the Lake last
year. San Mateo’s junior-varsity squad has
been dominant in recent years, and posted
an undefeated record in 2017. So there’s a
talent on the way.
“We felt right there,” Scheller said. “We
had a decent JV coming up. And then we
have three or four on-campus coaches. We
just felt like with all those factors … we
should push the kids. We should challenge
the kids to play up.”
Scheller’s assessment is the antithesis of
Carlmont’s outlook after a second-place
Lake finish in 2017.
“I really wanted to go up,” Carlmont head
coach Jake Messina said. “I thought our varsi-
ty would have had no problem going up. But
our JVs were so bad last year, they lost a lot of
close games, but they ultimately went 0-10.
We felt if we went up and didn’t have success,
it would really set our program back.”
So, the Ocean Division is moving forward

Division to the Bay. Woodside dropped from
the Ocean to the Lake.
TKA and South City are also programs in
flux. Head coach at TKA, former Sacred Heart
Prep coach Pete Lavorato, is in his second
year with the small private-school program in
a new head coach in Jerome Lee, just the sixth-
ever head coach in the program’s history.
For South City, the addition of Burlingame
to the Ocean draws the Warriors closer to the
rest of the division in terms of geography.
South City is still the northernmost team in
the Ocean Division by far. Last year, however,
the closest Ocean team was Hillsdale. After
that, the Warriors were looking southbound to
Redwood City, Woodside, Atherton and
Sunnyvale.
Jefferson, in Daly City, of course could have
redrawn the Ocean Division map. And that
may be an inevitability in the not-too-distant
future as Jefferson starts the season with 47
players on its roster, over twice as many as
South City, which is starting the year with
approximately 22.
Lee said he inherited an eligibility crisis in
his arrival at South City, a crisis he is com-
batting with mandatory study halls between
the school day’s final bell and the opening
whistle of daily practice.
In terms of filling out the roster, Lee is not
shying away from reaching into the under-
classman ranks. South City currently has
eight sophomores on roster. That is as many
underclassmen as Burlingame, TKA, San
Mateo and Sequoia have combined.
“These guys are going to stay,” Lee said.
“They can play varsity football, definitely.
We’re going to be young. But we’re going to
be young an tough.”

Lavorato admitted there were some grow-
ing pains last season as the Knights went 3-
2 in Ocean play, but just 4-6 overall. But with
a year together under their collective belts,
Lavorato believes the team is lot more famil-
iar with him and his coaching style.
“Things are more comfortable, for the kids
and the coaches,” Lavorato said. “The kids

On offense, that means the fly formation,
that puts a potential ball carrier in the slot
and sends him in motion behind the quarter-
back and across the back of the offensive line
before every snap. Not only can it be deceiv-
ing to opposing defenses, it can be a difficult
offense to grasp. So even though the Knights

decision. Athletic director Gene Smith —
who is not related to Zach or Courtney Smith
— was also suspended from Aug. 31 through
Sept. 16. Both the athletic director and
Meyer apologized and said they accepted the
punishments.
“I should have done more and I am sorry for
that,” Meyer said.
Meyer will miss Ohio State’s first three
games against Oregon State, Rutgers and No.
16 TCU.
The investigation prompted Meyer to
insist he followed proper protocols after
learning of the 2015 accusations. But he also
acknowledged lying to reporters a week earli-

dent until shortly before he fired Zach Smith.
The probe directly centered on the question

“[Sielski] is very competitive. Very intelli-
gent. … Kevin is a great athlete.”
The Knights’ defense will be anchored by a
pair of seniors — linebacker Preston Auger
and safety Steven Aslan —  but it’s sopho-
more linebacker Noah Short Lavorato is
most high on.
“One of the best sophomore athletes I’ve
ever coached,” Lavorato said of the 6-0, 175
Short. “He might be the best defensive play-
er we have on the field. He’s one of those
instinctual players.”
Also joining the defense are juniors David
Cho and Zach Lewman, a cornerback and
safety, respectively.
“I think we’ll be competitive, but it’s hard
to say. … We have a core group of kids com-
ing back and then a bunch of young guys
coming up who are good athletes,” Lavorato
said. “One of things I would say is we have
some speed. … I think this team has the abil-

of what Meyer knew and when. Meyer said in
his tweet that he always elevated issues
through the proper channels, and did so with
the Smith situation in 2015. That contradict-
ed what he told reporters at Big Ten media day
a week earlier: “I was never told about any-
thing and nothing ever came to light. I’ve
never had a conversation about it. I know
nothing about it.”
Speaking after the investigation was
announced, Zach Smith said he spoke with
Meyer at the time and that Smith also knew
about the allegations.
Zach Smith said Meyer told him he would
be fired if the head coach found out Smith had
hit his wife.
Zach Smith — the grandson of late Ohio
State coach and Meyer mentor Earle Bruce —
has never been criminally charged or con-
victed of abuse. He has a charge of criminal
trespass pending, and the Smiths are due in

Protect birds by
reining in cats
By Katherine Roth
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Although some cat owners still let their
pets roam free, the felines are a leading
cause of bird mortality, and bird and cat pro-
ponents agree that both species are safer if
cats are reined in.
The good news is that cat owners are,
increasingly, keeping their felines
enclosed.
“The cat realm is catching up to the dog
realm in this,” says Danielle Bays, commu-
nity cats program manager for The Humane
Society of the United States. The number of
cats kept indoors has increased dramatically
in recent years, she says.
Cats kill an estimated 2.4 billion birds in
the United States and Canada every year,
according to researchers from the
Smithsonian and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service. Worldwide, they’ve contributed to
the extinction of dozens of species of birds,
researchers say. Besides birds, cats also are
a serious threat to many small mammals and
other wildlife.
“The single best way to protect birds from
cats is to keep cats indoors. This is safe for
birds and other wildlife as well as safer for
the cats. Indoor cats are less susceptible to
disease, vehicle collisions or attack from a
larger predator,” says John Rowden, direc-
tor of community conservation for the
National Audubon Society.
Bays says the Humane Society doesn’t see
it as a cat-vs.-bird debate, but as a win for
both groups.
“We promote keeping cats indoors, on a
leash or in an enclosure. We find more and
more people opting for walking cats on a
leash, or putting in a catio,” says Bays.
Catios are screened-in outdoor enclosures,
often featuring shelves or ramps, intended
as safe outdoor areas for pet cats. Catios
vary widely in size and style, and some even
have room for people, too. There are catio
kits and building designs available online.
Bays says catios are a good option for
cats who dash out the door at every opportu-
nity.
They don’t have to be fancy. “Even a win-
dow-box catio can be helpful,” she says.
“There are also portable, pop-up catios, and
SUBURBAN LIVING Thursday • Aug 23, 2018 17
catios for apartment balconies.”
When Bays and her co-workers built a
catio in her backyard, she says, the neigh-
bors were fascinated and joined in to help.
“There are still some people who insist
their cats should roam free. But it’s impor-
tant to remember that people also used to let
their dogs roam free. It’s no longer common
for pet dogs, and cat owners are also coming
around to that,” Bays explains.
“We don’t allow dogs to be feral, and that
goes for cats as well,” adds Grant Sizemore,
director of invasive species programs at the
American Bird Conservancy, a nonprofit
organization devoted to conserving native
birds and their habitats.
The organization’s national Happy Cats
Happy Birds initiative is one of a number of
national resources designed to benefit both
populations. The initiative focuses on out- THISISBOSSI ON VISUALHUNT
reach, education and advocacy to keep cats Cats kill an estimated 2.4 billion birds in the United States and Canada every year, according
contained. to researchers from the Smithsonian and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
The Humane Society’s Community Cats
Program also works to reduce the number of
cats roaming wild. The program is designed
to “humanely trap, neuter and return” stray
cats to the area where they were picked up.
The cats are given an ear clip — a visual
identifier that they’ve been spayed or
neutered and vaccinated.
“The idea is that over time, the population
will be reduced humanely, protecting
wildlife as well as cats,” Bays says. “When
we get people in a community involved in
monitoring the situation, we can spot kit-
tens and new cats as soon as they show up.”
She urges anyone who spots stray cats to
contact a shelter or the Community Cats
Program.
In addition to keeping cats from roaming,
Rowden says people can help native bird
populations by planting native plant
species and keeping outdoor lighting to a
minimum, especially during seasonal
migrations.
“Audubon’s Plants for Birds database is a
tremendously helpful resource for anyone
who wants to help birds. Simply by putting
in their ZIP code, users can get a list of
plants native to that region, along with the
birds they’ll attract and shelter, as well as
local Audubon resources to help with any
questions or plant sourcing,” he explains.

HORNS
Continued from page 1
grade street crossings and when a conductor
sees a trespasser on the tracks. Because San
Mateo has nine at-grade crossings, which
means the street is level with the railroad
tracks, and several at-grade and underpass
street crossings clustered around downtown,
there are stretches where the horns are being
sounded almost continually down a stretch
of track as a train passes through the city,
said Tom.
In response to a 2009 request from city
officials that rail operators reduce train horn
volumes in San Mateo, Caltrain relocated
horns to the underside of its train to reduce
the range of the sound, but the Union
Pacific Railroad couldn’t make the same
change because the company’s trains oper-
ate in other regions, he said.
And though a 2013 assessment by a city
consultant found the noise was within the
Federal Railroad Administration’s require-
ments, officials have set their sights on
meeting the agency’s requirements for
establishing a “quiet zone” to restrict the
sounding of train horns at at-grade street
crossings.
LOCAL
Though Deputy Mayor Diane Papan
acknowledged Caltrain’s efforts to mitigate
the noise for residents living near the city’s
stretch of tracks, she noted Caltrain horns
are still audible even in the day with ambi-
ent noise. But she urged officials to take
whatever steps they can to mitigate the
noise from freight trains operating at night.
“I’m not so concerned about Caltrain in
the middle of the day,” she said, according
to a video of the meeting. “But it will still
be very quiet in the middle of the night, and
those trains and their horns will still be
really loud.”
To mitigate the uptick in risk associated
with not sounding the train horns at cross-
ings, the Federal Railroad Administration,
or FRA, requires cities requesting quiet
zones to implement safety improvements at
the crossings, said Tom. Among the meas-
ures Tom said could be taken to reduce the
risk of crossings are four-quadrant gate sys-
tems, which block both directions of traffic
on both sides of the track, installing medi-
ans to prevent drivers from crossing the
tracks when the gates are down, converting
two-way streets into one-way streets and
separating the tracks from the street level
by building an underpass, or a grade separa-
tion project.
But those measures will be costly, Tom
explained, with the least expensive option
— to install four-quadrant gates at Second,
East Fourth and East Bellevue avenues — to
cost at least $9 million.
Tom looked to an ongoing grade separa-
tion project to raise the tracks and lower the
road at East 25th Avenue and complete east-
west connections at 28th and 31st avenues
to reduce train noise for residents in the
southern portion of the city. Councilman
Joe Goethals pegged grade separation proj-
ects for downtown crossings as a long-term
strategy for making the corridor less disrup-
tive for residents at night.
“I think that in February at our next goal
setting session, it’s going to be important
for us to state that now is the time to start
talking about grade separations in our
downtown,” he said. “I know that we’re not
going to do this fast enough … for most of
us.”
Noting the lengthy timeline for design-
ing and funding grade separation projects,
Papan advocated for focusing on safety
improvement projects for a few of the
crossings so officials could move forward
with seeking approval for quiet zones
while funding is assembled for grade sepa-
ration projects. She added that once the
crossing improvements are scoped, offi-
cials can begin exploring the possibility
of federal grants and private funds to sup-
port them.
Mayor Rick Bonilla also suggested offi-
cials consider extending Third and East
Fourth avenues as one-way streets from
Highway 101 to B Street, as a strategy for
improving safety at the crossings where

a

those streets intersect with the railroad
tracks. Currently, the two streets are one-
way streets between Highway 101 and South
Delaware Street.
Councilwoman Maureen Freschet voiced
support for considering the extension of
Third and East Fourth avenues as one-way
streets, as well as a strategy to take small
steps toward safety improvements to see if
quiet zones can be established sooner rather
than later.
“I know our preference down the road is a
grade separation but I agree it’s going to be
a long time before we get the funding for
that,” she said. “So in the interim if we had
to spend $9 million or maybe we could even
get it for less than that, that to me is a
worthwhile investment to the community.”
In other business, the council approved a
proposal to build a 182-room Hampton Inn
& Suites in the lot behind the Marina Plaza
Center. The new hotel is slated to replace
the 116-room Los Prados Hotel on the 2.28-
acre lot near the Highway 101/Hillsdale
Boulevard interchange.
Councilmembers also approved changes
to the city code aimed at establishing spe-
cific hours when garbage cans will be
allowed on downtown streets in response to
concerns from merchants and downtown
visitors who noticed trash containers were
left on sidewalks for long periods of time.
Though they reviewed a proposed ordinance
to restrict the number of hours trash cans
can be left on residential streets, officials
opted to revisit the issue at a later meeting
after staff conducted additional outreach to
neighborhood associations.

sion was met with sadness by cus-
tomers like San Mateo resident Sharon
Cassidy, who came to the Foster City
Orchard Hardware Supply store at 1010
Metro Center Blvd. after hearing the
news to see when the store might
close. Cassidy said she spoke with a
friend that morning about the first
Orchard Supply Hardware that opened
in San Jose decades ago. Though she
acknowledged she increasingly turns

she can’t find items she needs in
stores, Cassidy said she prefers com-

where staff are available to help with
questions.
“I like this store much better,” she
said. “It’s much cleaner, there’s always
people here to help you.”
The manager of the store declined to
comment for this story, but said spe-

Penrose and Rarback felt it was an
overreach to restrict people from
smoking in their own homes, though
they conceded that smoke can certain-

comfort and health of others.  
“I hate secondhand smoke and want
to protect people’s health,” Rarback
said. “But I think it’s unfair to distin-
guish between multifamily and single-
family residents. Someone living in a
condo or apartment should not be
penalized because he or she can’t afford
to live in a single-family house.”
Rarback instead favored a ban on all
outdoor smoking, including back-
yards.
The ban on smoking in individual
units in multifamily residences was
recommended by the San Mateo
County Health Department, and it
applies to both renter and owner-occu-

generation bears a heavier responsibility
for paying for their own retirement, as pen-
sions go extinct and Social Security’s
finances weaken.
Few analysts are predicting an imminent
downturn for the S&P 500, which finished
Tuesday within 0.8 percent of its record, but
they’re much less confident about 2019 or
beyond due to rising interest rates and other
market challenges. The fear is that inexperi-
enced investors will panic at their first taste
of a bear market and sell their stocks, which
would lock in their losses.
For young investors with decades to go
before retirement, conventional wisdom
says the best bet is to ride through and wait
for a recovery. The average bear market
brings a loss of nearly 40 percent for the
S&P 500, but it typically lasts less than two
years, according to S&P Dow Jones Indices.
Many experts say today’s young investors
are generally taking the right approach. For
instance, many are invested in the stock
market through specialized kinds of mutual
funds in their 401(k) accounts called target-
from making rash moves.
Some younger investors also say the
experience of their parents in the wrenching
financial crisis of 2008-09, when the S&P
500 lost more than half its value, has pre-
pared them for the next downturn. They
know the stock market more than made up
all those losses, eventually.
They’re investors like Marcus Harris, a
34-year-old physician in the Houston area
who started investing about five years ago.
“It’s going to sound terrible, but I’m actu-
ally looking forward to the next downturn,”
he said of the opportunity to buy stocks at a
lower price. “I know it’s an overbought
position right now, and I’m just sitting on
my hands saying, ‘I can’t wait.’ Hopefully it
will go to half the price, and I can gobble up
a lot of it.”
He’s somewhat of an anomaly among his
peers in that he owns stocks at all. Only 4 in
10 households led by someone under 35
owned stocks in 2016, according to the
most recent data from the Federal Reserve.
Stubbornly low wages and high debt are
keeping many younger workers out of the
stock market.
Still, the ownership rate among younger
households, at 41 percent, has been on the
upswing and is much higher than the 23 per-
young investors were much more likely to
own stocks was around the dot-com bubble.
“All the ones I know, they do want to get
involved,” said Kimelah Taylor, a 36-year-
old accounting adviser in Houston who
began investing with a financial adviser
about 4 1/2 years ago. “There is that delay in
when they get involved because they’re pay-
ing off student loans and other things.”
Some younger investors may also be in
the market without even realizing it. More
employers are automatically enrolling their
workers into 401(k) accounts, and many of
those have a target-date retirement fund as
the default investment.
These funds automatically change over
time and create a portfolio that’s appropriate
for an investor’s age. When the target retire-
ment year is decades away, they’re virtually
entirely in stocks. As retirement approach-
es, they shed some stocks for bonds and
other safer investments.
Young people are much more likely to
have their entire 401(k) in target-date funds
than older savers, and the hope is that when
the next downturn hits, young investors will
continue to leave the investment decisions
in their hands.
“Inertia in this case is working for them,”
said Jeanne Thompson, senior vice presi-
cases, that inertia will help when there is a
market downturn, and they’ll probably leave
their assets and stay the course.”
In some ways, they’re more fortunate than
older generations, who didn’t have target-
date funds to take care of the decisions and
often gave into the urge to sell stocks during
a downturn.
“The main reason young people are not
running away from stocks is they aren’t fig-
uring it out for themselves,” said Jean
Young, senior research associate for the
Vanguard Center for Investor Research.
And even though younger investors
haven’t faced a full-blown bear market yet,
they have had a few mini-tests, with two
drops of 10 percent since early 2016.
Through them, younger investors made
more calls than usual to T. Rowe Price, but
they usually stopped short of selling their
stocks, said Roger Young, senior financial
planner at T. Rowe Price.
If anything, market dips have only
emboldened some, said Charles Adi, finan-
cial adviser at Blueprint 360 in Houston.
During a tumble earlier this year, for exam-
ple, he was balancing calls from older
clients looking for reassurance with
younger clients hungry to buy more shares
of stock.
