Deal offers Seton new life


Savior willing to rescue threatened health care system
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Daughters of Charity Health System, the


historically cash-strapped foundation operating two county medical centers, has
selected a new party willing to inject substantial funding into its bare coffers and
keep care center doors open for patients.
The health systems Board of Directors,

which oversees Seton


hospitals in Daly City
and
Moss
Beach,
announced Friday, July
17, approval of a bid
from
BlueMountain
Capital
Management
offering to pay more than
$250 million and sponDavid Canepa sor Integrity Healthcare

to manage and operate all six of the systems hospitals and medical centers across
the state.
The selection of BlueMountain comes
after Prime Healthcare backed out of a $837
million deal to buy the six Daughters of
Charity Hospitals in March, due in part to
provisions placed on the deal by California
Attorney General Kamala Harris.
And though Harris must again consent to

the boards most recent decision, local officials lauded a deal being struck.
Daly City Councilman David Canepa celebrated the announcement, and said it works
to shore up a future for the local hospital
system, which had been murky under the
fallout of the previous deal failing.
This clears up any ambiguity, or any fear

The Redwood Shores resident sits in

San Mateo officials are moving to preemptively


approach voters and ask for a 30-year extension of a quartercent sales tax that could raise nearly $150 million to support a wide variety of infrastructure and service needs.
Originally approved in 2009, Measure L is slated to
expire in 2018 and was passed as a temporary means to help
support critical services as the recession rocked the citys
financial footing.
On Monday night, the City Council will consider placing
a 30-year extension of the tax that raises nearly $5 million

Man who caused fatal 2012 car crash sentenced


By Daniel Montes
BAY CITY NEWS SERVICE

A San Bruno man who suffered a seizure


while he was driving and caused a fatal car
accident in 2012 was sentenced Friday.
A San Mateo County Superior court judge
sentenced Rodney Corsiglia, 52, to 33
years and 8 months to life in prison, according to the district attorney.
In addition, Corsiglia must pay $1,000 to
the state fund for victims, $9,208 to the
family of one of the victims and $317,749
to the family of the second victim, District
Attorney Steve Wagstaffe said.
Following a 14-day trial, a jury convicted
Corsiglia of second-degree murder and
vehicular manslaughter on June 4, 2014.

Rodney Corsiglia, 51,


was driving on a suspended license and over the
speed limit on Sneath
Lane in San Bruno on
July 28, 2012, when he
suffered a seizure and
plowed into the back of a
car stopped at a red light,
according to prosecutors.
Rodney
The crash instantly
Corsiglia
killed two of the passengers in the rear-ended car and injured two
victims in a third car, according to prosecutors.
The victims who died were fathers of a
total of five children, prosecutors said.
Corsiglia knew he had a seizure disorder

and was taking medication for it.


Prosecutors said the seizures caused him to
be involved in seven car crashes between
2002 and 2011.
Corsiglia had originally been scheduled
to be sentenced on March 13, however, the
sentencing was postponed, as the defense
attorney argued Corsiglia suffered from
dementia and a childhood brain injury, rendering him disabled and incompetent, prosecutors said.
Criminal proceedings were suspended.
After court appointed doctors evaluated
Corsiglias competency, they determined he
was competent for the sentencing to continue, prosecutors said.
Corsiglias defense attorney was not
available for comment.

SAN FRANCISCO After a new law went


into effect in January, more than half of all
new drivers licenses issued in California
this year have gone to people who are in the
country illegally, the state said Friday.
The California Department of Motor
Vehicles reported it has issued roughly
397,000 licenses to people who live in the
country illegally. A total of 759,000 licenses were issued in the first six months of the
year.
The DMV issued 435,000 licenses in the
first six months of 2014.
The new law initially generated huge interest, with long lines at DMV offices in
January and February. The DMV expects to

see about one million more applicants over


the next three years who are covered under
the new law.
We hope that all of those people will be
able to pass the testing and have the necessary documents to obtain a license, said
DMV spokeswoman Jessica Gonzalez.
Supporters of the law say giving licenses
to people regardless of their immigration
status makes the roads safer for everyone.
New drivers say having a license means they
can travel more freely for work or pleasure.
Some people had been driving without a
license.
Its great that people are taking advantage of this new law, said Jackelin Aguilar,
community organizer for Placer People of
Faith Together, an Auburn, California-based
group that supports the new licenses.

State jobless rate drops to 6.3 percent in June


By Julia Horowitz
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SACRAMENTO Californias jobless


rate dropped back to 6.3 percent in June
after seeing a slight increase in May, the
state
Employment
Development
Department reported Friday.
The state added 22,900 nonfarm payroll
jobs in June, helping unemployment
return to April levels after creeping up to
6.4 percent.
The rate drop occurred even as the number of people entering the workforce grew.
It shows both growth in the labor force
and people finding work, department
spokesman Kevin Callori said.
A year ago, Californias jobless rate was
7.5 percent.
With the exception of May, the states
unemployment rate has steadily dropped
since February 2010.
The employment department said Mays

rise in unemployment was due to an influx
Job seekers work with recruiters at GRID Alternatives solar job fair in San Francisco.
of people entering Californias workforce
ahead of the summer employment season.
The state still reported adding a revised
46,200 jobs that month.
The numbers are based on federal and
state surveys of employers and households, but dont take into account people
who have stopped looking for work or

those who are working part-time but would


rather be working full-time.
Californias unemployment rate remains
higher than the national average. The U.S.
unemployment dropped to 5.3 percent in
June, the lowest its been since April
2008.
Callori says Californias rate represents
a more positive picture, however. Though
the national unemployment rate shows a
drop, this is only because there was a
small decrease in both the labor force and
in employment.
More than 1.1 million people remain
unemployed in California, though the
number is down by 18,000 in the month
and by 217,000 in the past year. Over
360, 000 people received regular unemployment insurance benefits in June.
Six sectors grew in June, including manufacturing; trade, transportation and utilities; financial activities; professional and
business services; educational and health
services.
Professional and business services led
the growth, posting 12,700 jobs.
Five sectors reported monthly declines,
including mining and logging; construction; information; leisure and hospitality;
and government. Leisure and hospitality
posted the largest monthly drop, down
5,800 jobs.

Democrats meet for first 16


face-off in Clintons shadow
By Lisa Lerer
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON With Democratic presidential candidates in Iowa for the first faceoff of the 2016 campaign, Hillary Rodham
Clinton promised to continue the work of
the man she hopes to succeed in the White
House.
The president does not get the credit he
deserves for saving us from a major crash,
Clinton told volunteers and campaign
staffers in Cedar Rapids on Friday. When
you see what works you ought to keep
doing what works.
All five Democratic primary candidates
were on the program later for a fundraiser in
Cedar Rapids sponsored by the state party,
creating an opportunity for her challengers
to confront her before more than 1,200
influential party activists in the crucial caucus state.
Three months into what seems like an allbut-inexorable march to the nomination,
Clinton has already built a vast campaign
infrastructure, run from a multistory headquarters in New York City, with hundreds of
staffers across the country.
On Friday, Clintons campaign said it
bought $7.7 million worth of television
advertising time in early voting states, its
first ad buy for the 2016 contest. In Iowa,
where caucus-goers cast the countrys first
ballots, the campaign paid $3.6 million for
time in all eight media markets that serve
the state. An additional $4.1 million of airtime was purchased in New Hampshire,
which holds the first primary.
Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, whos
mounting an insurgent campaign challenging Clinton, said he has no illusions
about her political clout.
We are going to be outspent in this cam-

paign, but I think people


all over this country are
responding to a very
simple message and that
is that it is not acceptable that the middle class
is continuing to disappear, he told an audience
of veterans in Cedar
Hillary Clinton Rapids.
Clintons first appearance with all her primary rivals comes during signs that she has yet to win over some
of her partys most passionate backers, the
activists and small-dollar donors who will
form the base of support in the general election if she should win the nomination.
Those Democrats have a far more favorable view of President Barack Obama than
of Clinton, whos spent decades in public
life.
According to an Associated Press-GfK
poll this week, roughly two-thirds of
Hispanics view Obama favorably, compared
with just over half of Hispanics who say the
same about Clinton. Among self-identified
liberals, Obamas favorability stands at 87
percent, to Clintons 72 percent. Half of
Americans under the age of 30 view Obama
favorably, compared with just 38 percent
for his former secretary of state.
Record-setting turnout by those groups
twice propelled Obama to the White House
and would be crucial to Clintons success.
I dont like seeing that, obviously,
Clinton said of the poll, speaking to
reporters on Thursday. But I think people
know that I will fight for them. Ill fight for
their jobs, Ill fight for their families, Ill
fight on behalf of better education and
health care.
She added: Im very pleased with the support I have.

Shooting stirs questions about arming military recruiters


By Lolita C. Baldor
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON As Navy Petty Officer


2nd Class Randall Smith fights for his life
after being shot at a military support center
in Tennessee, his grandmother wonders why
troops at recruiting and reserve offices
arent allowed to have guns.
Its a question many were asking Friday, a
day after the deadly shooting that killed four
Marines and injured three others in
Chattanooga. Military officials say the
Pentagon shouldnt rush to change the ban,
which is governed in part by century-old
law, because arming troops in those facilities could cause more problems than it
might solve.
Speaking by phone Friday, Linda Wallace
of Midlothian, Texas, said she was upset to
learn there was no security outside where the
shootings took place. A lot of people are
learning our bases arent guarded, she said.
Military officials said security at recruiting and reserve centers will be reviewed, but
the Armys top officer said its too early to
say whether the facilities should have security guards or other increased protection.
I think we have to be careful about overarming ourselves, and Im not talking about
where you end up attacking each other,

REUTERS

FBI agents continue their investigation at the Armed Forces Career Center in Chattanooga,Tenn.
Gen. Ray Odierno, chief of staff of the
Army, told reporters. Instead, he said, its
more about accidental discharges and
everything else that goes along with having weapons that are loaded that causes
injuries.

Defense Secretary Ash Carter late Friday


asked the military services to determine if
additional steps can be taken to ensure people are safe at military installations, and
said he wants a report back by the end of
next week.

The comments came as Navy officials


confirmed a separate incident outside
Atlanta, where a recruiter accidently shot
himself in the leg with his personal .45-caliber pistol while discussing the Tennessee
shootings with one of his recruits. Officials
said he showed the sailor the unloaded gun,
then reloaded it and inadvertently discharged it as he was putting it back in his
holster.
Tucked in strip malls in rural and suburban
communities and in high-traffic city spots
like New Yorks Times Square, military
recruiting and reserve stations are designed
to be open and welcoming to the public.
The troops inside arent allowed to carry
weapons.
The ban is largely due to legal issues,
such as the Posse Comitatus Act of 1878,
which prohibits the federal government
from using the military for domestic law
enforcement. U.S. forces dont routinely
carry guns when they are not in combat or
on military bases. And Pentagon officials
are sensitive to any appearance of armed
troops within the United States.
Were always going to be somewhat vulnerable to a lone wolf, or whatever you want
to call it, a surprise shooter, because we are
out there with the population and thats
where we have to be, said Odierno.

U.S. asked Mexico


to extradite drug
lord before escape
By Alicia A. Caldwell
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Just weeks before


Joaquin El Chapo Guzman sneaked out of a
maximum security prison in Mexico, the
U.S. government had requested formally that
the drug kingpin be sent to the United States
to stand trial on a variety of drug trafficking
and conspiracy charges, the Justice
Department said on Friday.
The office of Mexico Attorney General
Arely Gomez issued a statement late Thursday
saying she told a congressional committee in
that country that the extradition request was
sent June 25.
Guzman vanished from the prison through
a tunnel in the shower floor of his cell on July
11. Gomezs office said she issued instructions to review the request and submit it to
courts for consideration.
A variety of U.S. officials, including lawmakers and law enforcement officials, had
called for Guzmans transfer to the U.S. since
his arrest in February 2014. Mexican officials, however, said Guzman wouldnt be sent
to the U.S. until he had served time for all of

his crimes in Mexico.


That is one of the reasons we pushed for extradition, said Jack Riley,
the Drug Enforcement
Administrations
top
agent. We were afraid of
this. Not that (Mexican
authorities) werent capable of keeping him but
Joaquin
hed escaped before.
Guzman
Riley,
the
deputy
administrator, hasnt really slept since
Guzmans escape. The last week has been a
flurry of work speaking with his Mexican
counterparts and helping direct U.S. efforts to
capture one of the worlds most prolific and
violent drug lords for the third time since the
1990s.
This guy caused me one of the best days
and worst days of my life in a span of a year,
Riley said. We are doing everything we can
to track him down, much like we did a year or
so ago when we hooked him.
Before taking over as DEAs operations
chief in Washington last year, Riley spent
four years in Chicago tracking Guzman and

continuing to build a growing criminal case
against the drug lord. After Guzmans 2014
arrest, authorities in Chicago, including
Riley, called for his extradition to the United
States to face trial on a litany of drug trafficking and other charges.
Guzman vanished nearly a week ago
through a sophisticated tunnel that opened in
the floor of his cells shower. Two Mexican
lawmakers said Thursday that at least 18 min-

utes passed before anyone was alerted.


A surveillance video of Guzmans cell
shows him walking to the shower where
there was a blind spot in the security cameras
view crouching down and then vanishing.
According to internal DEA documents
obtained by the Associated Press, U.S. drug
agents learned Guzman and his associates
were plotting his escape almost immediately
after his arrest.

Frozen plains in Plutos heart House panel ask to interview


Planned Parenthood official

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. Vast


frozen plains exist next door to
Plutos big, rugged mountains

Friday, three days after humanitys
first-ever flyby of the dwarf planet.
The New Horizons spacecraft
team revealed close-up photos of
those plains, which theyre

away as beautiful eye candy.
Im still having to remind
myself to take deep breaths, added
Jeff Moore, head of the New
Horizons geology team at NASAs
Ames
Research
Center in
California. I mean, the landscape
is just astoundingly amazing.
Spanning hundreds of miles, the
plains are located in the promi-

nent, bright, heart-shaped area of


Pluto. Like the mountains unveiled
Wednesday, the plains look to be a
relatively young 100 million
years old at the most. Scientists
speculate internal heating perhaps from icy volcanoes or geysers might still be shaping these
crater-free regions.
This could be only a week old
for all we know, Moore said. He
stressed that scientists have no
hard evidence of erupting, geyserlike plumes on Pluto yet.
Another possibility could be
that the terrain, like frozen mud
cracks on Earth, formed as a result
of contraction of the surface.
The plains which include clusters of smooth hills and fields of
small pits are covered with
irregular-shaped, or polygon, sections that look to be separated by
troughs.

Multiple suicide bombs kill


64 in northeastern Nigeria
By Michelle Faul
and Adamu Adamu
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

DAMATURU, Nigeria Nigerias


Islamic extremists chose open-air praying grounds for suicide bombings
Friday, one of the holiest days of the
Muslim calendar. At least 15 people
died as they prepared to celebrate Eid alFitr in northeastern Damaturu, said
police.
Nigerians who usually turn out in
their finest robes to pray on the holiday
stayed home in fear in Damaturu and
Gombe town, where 50 people shopping for the holiday at the main market
died in two bomb blasts late Thursday
night, according to the National
Emergency Management Agency.
One of the bombers was a child who

looked about 10 years old and the other


was an elderly woman, said the military
in a statement. Nigerias homegrown
Boko Haram extremist group has used
many women and girl bombers in
recent weeks, raising fears the insurgents are turning some of their hundreds of captives into weapons. A military bomb disposal expert has told the
Associated Press that almost all the
female bombers are strapped with
explosives that are remotely detonated.
No amount of terrorist acts would
deter our resolve to stamp out terrorism
and insurgency in our fatherland, said a
statement from army spokesman Col.
Sani Kukasheka Usman.
But Nigerians are weary of the militarys promises to halt the 6-year-old
insurgency that has killed more than

13,000 people. Amnesty International


puts the toll at some 20,000 to include
8,000 people it charges have died in
military detention some shot, some
of untreated wounds from torture, others
just starving or asphyxiated to death in
overcrowded cells.
Our military keep making promises
and the bombs keep exploding. Im
tired, one Nigerian woman wrote on
Twitter.
The upsurge in violence comes after
the May 29 inauguration of President
Muhammadu Buhari, a Muslim whose
election pledge was to defeat the
extremists.
Buhari is flying to Washington D.C.
for a Monday meeting with President
Barack Obama that is expected to focus
on how the United States can help the
fight against Boko Haram.

Iraq: Suicide car bomb kills at least 80 in eastern province


By Qassem Abdul-Zahra
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BAGHDAD A suicide car bombing


in Iraqs eastern Diyala province killed
at least 80 people gathered at a marketplace to mark the end of the holy
month of Ramadan.
Iraqi police officials said at least 50
people were also wounded in the attack
in the town of Khan Beni Saad.
Hospital officials confirmed the death
tolls. The officials spoke on condition

of anonymity because they were not


authorized to talk to the press.
The Islamic State group has claimed
responsibility for the attacks, according to messages posted on Twitter. The
claim could not be independently verified but it was posted by accounts commonly associated with the group.
Security has been ramped up in areas
across Iraq since the start of Ramadan
amid fears that the Sunni militant
group would use the occasion to wage
an assault on civilians to destabilize
the Shiite-led government in Baghdad.

Parts of the predominantly-mixed


Diyala province were captured by the
Islamic State group last year. Iraqi
forces and Kurdish fighters have since
retaken those areas, but clashes
between the militants and security
forces continue. In August last year, at
least 64 people were killed in an attack
on a Sunni mosque in the volatile
province. The attack prompted Sunni
lawmakers to pull out of sensitive talks
last summer aimed at forming a new
government after Prime Minister Haider
al-Abadi was named premier-elect.

ATHENS, Greece Greeces proposed bailout cleared further key hurdles Friday after German lawmakers overwhelmingly gave their backing to another financial rescue and the
European Union said it would release a short-term loan to
ensure Athens avoids a debt default.
The developments, along with the Greek parliaments
approval early Thursday of creditor-demanded austerity
measures, contributed to a positive initial assessment from
Europes bailout fund. In a statement, the European
Stability Mechanism said it approved a decision to grant,
in principle, stability support to Greece in the form of a
loan program.
Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras, meanwhile, reshuffled his
cabinet after a rebellion earlier this week in his partys
ranks over the austerity measures, replacing two ministers
who voted against him and changing another eight ministers and deputy ministers.
Though the broad outlines of the Greek bailout were
agreed Monday by the eurozones 19 leaders, the ESMs
decision formally kick-starts the process by which Greece
begins negotiating the details.
The discussions, which are expected to last four weeks,
will include economic targets and reforms deemed necessary
in return for an anticipated 85 billion euros ($93 billion)
over three years.
This agreement offers a chance to put the Greek economy
back on track, said Jeroen Dijsselbloem, the eurozones
top official who also chairs the ESM board. Its not going
to be easy. We are certain to encounter problems in the
years to come. But I believe we will be able to resolve
them.

Around the world


Liberia says four remaining
Ebola patients have recovered
MONROVIA, Liberia The four remaining patients
infected during Liberias recent string of Ebola cases have
recovered, meaning there are currently no confirmed cases
in the country though more than 100 people are still under
surveillance, a health official said Friday.
There are no Ebola cases anywhere in Liberia as we
speak, Deputy Health Minister Tolbert Nyenswah told the
Associated Press.
In an interview earlier with state media, he said the four
patients had recovered and would be discharged in a ceremony on Monday.
It is still too early to say is it is over, Nyenswah cautioned in the interview, noting that 123 contacts were

NEW YORK A strong week fizzled


to a close on Friday as the stock market eked out a small gain. But a few
companies made big moves. Google
surged after reporting strong results,
pushing the Nasdaq to another record
high.
It was a quiet end to an eventful
week. Markets around the world rallied
on Monday after Greece and its creditors agreed to a broad framework for a
new loan program. Stronger quarterly
earnings reports from a range of big
U.S. companies, including Citigroup
and JPMorgan Chase, added more
encouragement.
It appears the sky is clearing, said
Linda Duessel, senior equity strategist
at Federated Investors.
Before this week, concerns about
Chinas plunging stock market and the
prospect of Greece leaving the euro
had been bogging us down, she said.
The Standard & Poors 500 index
edged up 2.35 points, or 0.1 percent,
to close at 2,126.64. The broad-market measure finished the week with a
gain of 2.4 percent, its best performance in four months.

percent, to 5,210.14, closing out its


best week in nine months. The Dow
Jones industrial average lost 33.80
points, or 0.2 percent, at 18,086.45.
Google jumped after reporting profits and sales that topped analysts forecasts late Thursday. The results ended
six consecutive quarters in which
Googles earnings fell short of analysts targets. Google rose $97.84, or
16 percent, to $699.62.
Earnings reports out this week have
looked better than Wall Street expected. Analysts forecast that second-quarter earnings will shrink 3.3 percent
compared with the prior year, according to S&P Capital IQ. Last week, the
prediction was for a drop of 4.4 percent.
Greeces deal cleared another hurdle
on Friday when German lawmakers
overwhelmingly backed it. The
European Union also said it would get
Athens enough money for it to keep
making its debt payments.
Europes major markets finished
mixed after rallying earlier this week.

Germanys DAX lost 0.4 percent while


Frances CAC edged up 0.1 percent.
Britains FTSE 100 slipped 0.3 percent.
Back in the U.S., Comerica reported
a drop in quarterly earnings, partially a
result of the Dallas-based bank setting
aside more money to cover losses on
loans to oil companies. The news
drove Comericas stock down $3.19,
or 6.3 percent, to $47.28.
Bond prices barely moved, leaving
the 10-year Treasury note at 2.35 percent. The dollar dropped to 124.06 yen
while rising to $1.0838 for every
euro.
In commodities trading, precious
and industrial metals sank. Gold fell
$12 to settle at $1,131.90 an ounce,
while silver sank 15 cents to $14.92
an ounce. Copper fell 3 cents to $2.50
a pound.
Benchmark U.S. crude oil fell two

New York. Brent crude, the international benchmark, rose 18 cents to
close at $57.10 a barrel in London.

Ludicrous Mode? Tesla adds power to already-fast Model S


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK Tesla Motors says its


adding a new Ludicrous Mode to highperformance versions of its Model S electric car.
CEO Elon Musk said Friday that the
upgrade will cost $10,000 for new buyers

of the Model S, whose base price is


$70,000. Current Model S owners will be
able to get the upgrade for $5,000 plus the
cost of installation in the next six months.
It will allow the car to go from zero to 60
miles per hour in 2.8 seconds. Tesla had
referred to a previous package as Insane
Mode.

Musk also said Tesla will upgrade the battery pack of the Model S to improve its
range, something it plans to do every year.
The upgrade will cost about $3,000, and it
will give the car a range of about 300 miles
on the highway on a single battery charge,
about 15 miles more than the current version.
The company also announced a rearwheel drive version of the Model S that will
cost about $5,000 less than the standard
model.
Earlier this month Tesla said its deliver-

ies grew 52 percent to more than 11,000 in


the second quarter.
Shares of the Palo Alto-based company
rose $7. 98, or 3 percent, to close at
$274.66 on Friday.
The name ludicrous mode comes from
Mel Brooks 1987 Star Wars spoof
Spaceballs, where a spaceship is able to
surpass light speed - traveling so fast it
turns plaid. Tesla said the next version of
its Roadster car will have a maximum
plaid speed, but that Roadster wont be
available for another four years.

Mattel shares fall as


Barbie sales, dollar cut earnings
NEW YORK Shares of Mattel Inc. fell
3.3 percent Friday after the company reported a second-quarter loss as another decline in
Barbie sales and a strong dollar cut into revenue.
After the market closed on Thursday, the
toy maker reported a loss of $11.4 million,
or 3 cents per share, after reporting a profit in
the same period a year earlier. Its adjusted
results of a profit of 1 cent per share beat Wall
Street expectations for a loss of 5 cents per
share.
But, revenue fell 7 percent to $988.2 million, missing forecasts of $999.9 million.
Worldwide sales of Barbie fell 11 percent
even after discounting currency swings. The
stronger U.S. dollar has been hurting retailers international business. Barbie is the
companys largest brand and sales have been
suffering for more than a year.
Overall, Girls & Boys Brands sales fell 13
percent globally to $601.8 million, while
Fisher-Price Brand sales rose 2 percent to
$336.8 million. American Girl Brands sales
rose 1 percent to $84.2 million.
Mattel stock fell 84 cents to close at

which Yahoo has touted as a tax-free transaction.


Federal authorities are reviewing their
policy on such deals.
CEO Marissa Mayer has said she doesnt
believe any policy change would affect the
spinoff.
The filing says Yahoo wont proceed without assurances the deal is tax-free for
investors, but Aabaco could be liable if
authorities ultimately determine that taxes
are owed.
Sunnyvale-based Yahoo expects the spinoff to close in the fourth quarter.

San Bruno rallies for win

Judge dismisses
concussion suit

The San Mateo White Sox, a U19


Palomino League baseball team, has twice
advanced to the Palomino Zone Tournament
which is essentially the state tournament
in 2009 and 2010.
White Sox manager Lenny Souza believes
this years squad has a chance to become the
third.
Its tough to do, said Souza, who also
manages the Aragon High School team.
The top four teams in our league can play

with any of the top teams in the state.


San Mateo begins its bid for a Zone
Tournament berth as the top seed in the
Region Tournament kicking off next week
at Santa Claras Washington Park. The
White Sox went 11-1 in regular-season play
in capturing the league title.
The top eight teams from the league
which stretches from San Mateo to
Monterey qualify for the Region
Tournament, with the top two advancing to
the Zone Tournament in Compton at the

For five innings, San Carlos starting pitcher Jordan Brandenburg had the San Bruno batting order befuddled in the semifinals of the
Peninsula Joe DiMaggio tournament Friday
evening at Tom Lara Field in San Bruno.
After throwing 18 pitches in the first
inning, he threw a total of 40 pitches over the
next four, limiting San Bruno to just five base
hits.
When Brandenburg walked San Brunos
Rory McDaid on four pitches to lead off the
sixth inning, Brandenburg was lifted with a 30 lead.
Thats when the San Bruno offense came
alive. It scored once in the sixth against
reliever Jordan Mann and then tied the game in
the bottom of the seventh on a McDaid tworun double to send the game into extra innings.
In the bottom of the eighth, San Bruno
walked off with the improbable 4-3 win when
Joe Katouts line drive to the left-center field
gap eluded the San Carlos centerfielder and fell
in for a base hit, driving in Antonio
Martinucci with the game-winning run.
I was looking for a ball up, Katout said.
Off the bat, I was thinking, I got this. But he
(the centerfielder) was covering ground.
San Bruno will now play the winner of
Burlingame-South City in the championship
game at 11 a.m. Sunday at Marchbanks Field.
Sundays winner will get the leagues wild card
to the Joe DiMaggio state tournament next
week in Napa.
Katouts base hit ended a dramatic at-bat. San
Bruno loaded the bases in the bottom of the
eighth, with Joe Galea leading off with a double, Martinucci drawing a walk and Dylan
Arsenault legging out a infield hit to bring up
Katout.
As San Carlos Mann went into his windup
for his first pitch to Katout, Galea broke from
third. Galea and the ball ended up at the plate at
nearly the same time and Kaout managed to
foul the pitch off.
I didnt realize [Galea] was so close to the
plate, Katout said.
Katout quickly fell behind 0-2, fouled off
four pitches before taking ball one.

SAN FRANCISCO A federal judge in


California dismissed a lawsuit alleging US
Soccer and other organizations had not done
enough to reduce the risk of injury from concussions and repetitive heading of balls.
The seven soccer players named as plaintiffs
had no right to bring the suit, in part because
they had failed to show injuries or imminent
danger of injury, or that the defendants were to
blame, U.S. District Judge Phyllis Hamilton
ruled Thursday.
Among the defendants was Federation
Internationale de Football Association, or FIFA.
Hamilton said her court did not have jurisdiction over FIFA, noting it was a Swiss association.
She dismissed the suit against FIFA outright
and allowed the soccer players to amend their
suit against the other organizations, saying
they would have to provide additional evidence,
including specific facts supporting injury
claims and a causal link to the organizations
being sued.
Plaintiffs attorney Steve Berman said he will
appeal the decision regarding FIFA and amend
the complaint based on the judges instructions.
The epidemic of concussions in soccer - particularly in regards to youth players - is an issue
that FIFA and U.S. Soccer cannot dodge any
longer, he said.
FIFA said in a statement it welcomed the ruling.
The court concluded that FIFA cannot be held
responsible for football played throughout the
United States and, as such, all claims relating to
concussion and negligence against FIFA must
be dismissed, it said.
The plaintiffs four of whom were under 17
were members of soccer clubs in their communities, according to Hamiltons ruling.
The lawsuit filed last year demanded that the
soccer governing bodies alter rules regarding
player substitutions to ensure injured players
can be taken out of games and limit headers for
players 17 and younger, among other changes.
The NFL, NHL and U.S. college sports governing body the NCAA have all faced similar
concussion lawsuits.

Dustin Johnson still in control at St. Andrews


By Doug Ferguson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ST. ANDREWS, Scotland The grand


pursuit of Jordan Spieth, redemption for
Dustin Johnson, the mystery that has
become Tiger Woods. It all came to a
momentary halt Friday in the gloaming of
St. Andrews when Tom Watson said goodbye
to the British Open.
Watson, the most prolific winner of

golfs oldest championship in the last century, finished his 129th


round with lights from
the Royal & Ancient
clubhouse illuminating
the 18th green. The fivetime champion made
bogey. The score was
Dustin Johnson irrelevant.
There were no tears,
Watson said. This is a joyous occasion. I

have a lot of great, great memories. And


those memories filled me up.
Everything else about this wet and wild
second round remained unsettled.
A heavy downpour at dawn flooded the Old
Course and disrupted the start by more than
three hours. Johnson and Spieth teed off
shortly before 6 p.m. and were headed in different directions when it was too dark to
continue.
In swift, shifting weather umbrellas on
one hole, sunglasses on the next

Johnson made three birdies in four holes on


the front nine and built a two-shot lead
before he made his first bogey of the tournament. He three-putted on the par-3 11th in
wind so severe he had to back off a 4-foot
putt and wipe his eyes.
Johnson was at 10-under par.
Spieth three-putted for bogey three times
in 11 holes to offset three birdies and was
five shots behind Johnson, whom he beat

Twins silence Oakland Giants win marathon


By Janie McCauley
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

OAKLAND Sonny Gray rarely gives up


home runs, and this time he surrendered two,
one a grand slam. Oaklands All-Star ace rarely
needs long innings to get through opposing
batting orders. On Friday night he threw 38
pitches just to finish the sixth.
Trevor Plouffe hit a grand slam against Gray
in the sixth inning after
Brian Dozier led off the
game with his 20th home
run, and the Minnesota
Twins beat the Athletics 50 on Friday night.
It is a surprise when he
gives up a home run. It really came down to two pitches where they scored all
Sonny Gray
their runs, As manager
Bob Melvin said. He threw a lot of pitches in
the sixth, something he normally doesnt do.
After Aaron Hicks drew a one-out walk in the
second, Gray (10-4) retired 11 straight before
Dozier walked to get things going in the sixth.
Gray who won his only two previous starts
against the Twins, both in 2013 allowed five
runs and five hits in six innings with four
strikeouts and two walks. He was done after that
38-pitch sixth.
I made a few bad pitches and they took
advantage, Gray said. I hung an 0-2 pitch to
Plouffe, he put a good swing on it and got just
enough of it. Maybe my stuff just wasnt as
sharp.
Plouffe figured he had a sacrifice fly, calling
his second career grand slam a little windaided.
Ill take it, he said.
Ervin Santana received the game ball from
Joe Mauer after his first win with Minnesota,
and he waited months to finally earn it.
Santana worked out of a bases-loaded jam in
the third and won in his third start since returning from an 80-game suspension for performance-enhancing drugs.
The veteran right-hander allowed five hits to
improve to 15-6 with a 2.03 ERA in 27 starts
against the As.
I dont know (why) but I like it, he said,
grinning. Good numbers.
Minnesota (50-40) holds the second-best
record in the AL behind division-leading Kansas
City.
Gray surrendered just his sixth and seventh
homers of 2015. Dozier also hit No. 20 at
Oakland last season.

not easy to come off a break and feel great.

Penningtons throwing error allowed the
go-ahead run to score in the 12th inning and
San Francisco beat the Diamondbacks 6-5
on Friday night, the Giants fourth straight
victory.
With the bases loaded and one out,
Pennington who entered the game in the
11th inning elded Angel Pagans bouncer and threw home to try and get the forceout. But the throw bounced in front of the
plate and got past catcher Welington
Castillo.
Hunter Pence of the Giants had tied the
game with a two-run homer in the three-run
seventh and added a double and single. Joe
Panik and Matt Duffy also had three hits
apiece for the Giants.
Ryan Vogelson (7-6), the last of 10 pitchers used by the Giants, threw two scoreless
innings to get the victory. Vogelsong was
sent to the bullpen at the All-Star break to
make room for Mondays anticipated return
of Tim Hudson. It was Vogelsongs third
career win in relief, rst since Sept. 14,
2005.
Randall Delgado (4-3) gave up the
unearned run in two innings for the loss.
Chris Owings homered and David Peralta
had three hits, two of them triples, for
Arizona, which lost its fourth straight. The
Diamondbacks A.J. Pollock doubled twice
and scored both times and Paul Goldschmidt
had two sacrice ies.
Carl Crawford singled to start the 12th
and, with one out, Gregor Blanco walked.
Vogelsong put down a bunt that got past
Delgado for a single to load the bases and
bring up Pagan.
Arizona took a 5-2 lead into the seventh,
when the Giants rallied against reliever
Enrique Burgos. One-out singles by Panik
and Duffy put runners at rst and third and
Buster Posey brought a run home with a sacrice y. That brought up Pence, who sent

Sagan still cant win, Froome cruising to Tour title


By John Leicester
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

RODEZ, France Peter Sagan might be


the unluckiest rider at the Tour de France.
So close yet so far could be his nickname.
With a few more pumps on his pedals, a
few more ounces of speed and power, the
spunky Slovakian could have won four
stages by now.
Instead, he has four second places.
He blamed only himself for the latest addition Friday to his unwanted collection. In a
man-to-man duel on an uphill final sprint
against Greg van Avermaet, Sagan mistimed
his finish, easing up just a fraction too early
against the Belgian rider who pushed to the
very end.
My stupid mistake, said the TinkoffSaxo rider.
Chris Froome was faultless. Again.
Another stage down, another step closer to
sipping champagne on the Champs-Elysees
for the race leader.
Just happy to tick that day off. One day
closer to Paris now, he said.
For most of the flat-to-hilly Stage 13
from Muret deep in southern France, six
low-placed riders rode in a breakaway at the
front of the race. None were a threat for the
podium in Paris. The closest to Froome,
Cyril Gautier, was more than an hour behind
him in the overall standings. So Froome
and the main pack happily let the escape get
away, hoping instead for a breather on the
198-kilometer (123-mile) trek after three
grueling days of climbing in the Pyrenees
and under unrelenting sun that melted tarmac.
Riding past plantations of yellow sunflowers and golden fields of harvested
wheat, the riders worked on staying hydrated as temperatures soared into the mid-30s
Celsius (mid-90s Fahrenheit). A loss of concentration proved very painful for JeanChristophe Peraud. Last years runner-up

suffered a nasty spill at speed on the flat,
tearing strips of skin off his left leg and
arms as he hit the deck hard and rolled several times. The French leader of the AG2R La
Mondiale team gingerly picked himself up
and remounted, gritting his teeth. A Tour
doctor then patched him up on the move,
wrapping his wounds in bandages as Peraud
gripped the speeding medical car.
When its hot like that, you need a new
bottle of water every 10-15 minutes, said
Froome. It was tough.
And it got tougher.
As the finish in Rodez drew close, the
peloton woke from its slumber. Like mice
trying to escape a hunting cat, the escapees

rode furiously, eyeing the stage win in the


town of 26,000 people. Their speciality
dishes include aligot, a mix of melted
cheese and mashed potato, and tripe.
The cat had other plans.
Riders took turns at the front of the peloton to pile on speed. The gap melted like ice
cream. With 7 kilometers (4 miles) to ride,
it had shrunk from minutes to 40 seconds. It
was clear this would be agonizingly close.
The pack caught its prey inside the last
kilometer (half-mile), swallowing up the
last three escapees. That was when van
Avermaet and Sagan pounced, surging
ahead, two powerful riders competing for
one prize.

The 30-year-old Belgian made the top 10


on five previous stages. Not bad, but no
cigar. As well as second places on Stages 2,
5 and 6, 25-year-old Sagan also placed third
twice. Both were ravenous to win.
Van Avermaet, it turned out, just a fraction
more so.
Sensing a rider he didnt know it was
Sagan on his wheel, he emptied his tank.
Sagan, sprinting behind, off his saddle, sat
back down just a tad too early.
Incredible, said van Avermaet, who
rides for the BMC team.
I was dead, really dead, he said. I
thought Id caught second. I pushed for the
line and was so happy he didnt overtake
me.
Sagan glowered at a reporter who asked
how it felt to be second again. He is the
most consistent sprinter of this Tour, wearing the green jersey awarded for that quality.
But he last won a stage in 2013. He won
three the year before that.
Im very angry and disappointed, Sagan
said. I sat down and all the pain comes.
Bad.
The cat-mouse chase killed Froomes
hopes for an uneventful day. The British
leader of the Sky team and his closest podium challengers threw themselves into the
final sprint because they didnt want to lose
time, even just a few seconds, to each other.
Mission accomplished. Froomes lead
remains unchanged, with Tejay van Garderen
of BMC still 2 minutes, 52 seconds back
and Nairo Quintana third, still 3:09 back.
What started off as quite an easy steady
stage turned crazy by the end, Froome said.
The guys started panicking that they
werent going to catch the breakaway.
He is bracing for more hostilities on the
short but very sharp uphill finish of
Saturdays Stage 14 at Mende.
Im in a great position, he said. But far
from over.

This is a Zone (Tournament) team in my
mind, Souza said. I think these guys really expect to go far. I just hope we keep [our
game] tight.

Five-time British Open champion Tom Watson waved to the fans from St. Andrews famous
Swilcan Bridge. It was Watsons final time playing in the British Open.

Continued from page 11
by one shot in the U.S. Open last month to capture the second leg of the Grand Slam.
Both were just short on the par-5 14th hole in
two shots when they chose to mark their golf
balls and return at 7 a.m. Saturday to resume the
round.
Im in a good spot, Johnson said.
Definitely got very tricky this afternoon, all
day. Even the front side, the wind was howling
and it was blowing straight left-to-right pretty
much. It played very tough all day.
Danny Willett of England had to cope with the
wind, too, and he had a 3-under 69 to walk off
the 18th green with his name atop the leaderboard at 9-under 135.
Yeah, I think its a childhood dream and
looking up there its still a little bit surreal, but
something Im going to have to get used to,
Willett said. Otherwise, no point in being up
there. Were going to try and rest up and then try
and go out for another good weekend and hopefully, we can be up there in two days time.
Watson wasnt the only player to bid farewell
to the Old Course.
Nick Faldo, the three-time Open champion
regarded as Britains greatest champion, came
out of the TV tower to play St. Andrews one last
time. He switched into a sweater that he wore for
his first Open title in 1987 at Muirfield, thrust
his arms in the air atop the Swilcan Bridge, and
saved par for a 71.
And then there was Woods, headed toward the
wrong kind of history. Barring a burst of birdies
when he returns Saturday morning the kind of
form he has not shown in two years he was
likely to miss the cut in the U.S. Open and the
British Open for the first time in the same year.
Woods was 5 over with seven holes to play.

So much attention has been on Spieth and


Jordan, the main characters from the drama that
played out at Chambers Bay last month.
Johnson had a 12-foot eagle putt on the final
hole to win the U.S. Open, and three-putted to
finish one shot behind golfs new golden child.
The wind was fierce, taxing shots with every
club in the bag down to the putter.
Johnson continued to hammer away with his
driver, setting up birdies, and he looked every
bit like the player to beat. Spieth got in enough
trouble off the tee that he often left long-range
putts that led to bogeys instead of birdies.
Behind them, a long list of players lined up to
take their shot on the weekend.
Jason Day, in contention at Chambers Bay
even though he battled symptoms of vertigo,
was at 8-under par through 11 holes. Paul
Lawrie, the 99 champion at Carnoustie, also
was at 8 under through 12 holes. Louis
Oosthuizen, who won the claret jug the last time
the Open came to St. Andrews, was at 7 under
through 11 holes.
Among those who managed to finish was
Adam Scott, a former Masters champion who is
starting to feel the void of giving away the
British Open at Royal Lytham & St. Annes in
2012 when he bogeyed the last four holes. Scott
was in control in blustery weather, flighting his
ball low and judging the bounce to perfect. He
made three birdies around the loop at the far end
of the course and closed with a birdie for a 67.
Scott was at 7-under 137, along with Zach
Johnson (71), Marc Warren (69) and Robert
Streb (71).
The last few years at the Open has been some
of my favorite golf, Scott said. Getting into
contention at this championship and having a
chance to lift the claret jug is what its all about.
This is a great position. Im excited for my
weekend.

Cuba: Four players to miss Gold Cup match against the U.S.
By Ronald Blum
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BALTIMORE When it comes to Cubas


soccer team, you cant even tell the players
with a scorecard.
Coach Raul Gonzalez said 19 of the 23 men
on his roster will be available for Saturdays
CONCACAF Gold Cup quarterfinal against
the United States.
I think its enough to play the game and
to play the tournament, he said at a news
conference Friday, speaking through a translator.
Cubas sports teams have a history of
defections, and Gonzalez avoided saying
which four players wont be suiting up.
The Associated Press previously reported

forward Keiler Garcia defected in Chicago


ahead of Cubas opener against Mexico and
backup goalkeeper Arael Arguellez disappeared before the team traveled to Arizona for
its second match, against Trinidad and
Tobago.
Midfielders Dario Suarez and Aricheel
Hernandez were listed as absent on
Wednesdays lineup sheet before the 1-0 win
over Guatemala in North Carolina, which
advanced the Cubans to the knockout stage
for the first time. Univision reported Friday
that midfielder Ariel Martinez was not with
the team.
Gonzalez said he wanted to focus on the
players he had.
Obviously, we know what theyre going
through on and off the field, so its huge

admiration with how they dealt with everything they went through, U.S. coach Jurgen
Klinsmann said.
The defending champion U.S. is 8-1-1
against Cuba with eight consecutive victories since 1947. The Americans won 5-0 in
the 2003 quarterfinals and 4-1 in the first
round two years ago,
Cuba, ranked 104th, has not qualified for
the World Cup since 1938. Like the U.S.,
Cuba is a nation where soccer is not the No.
1 sport.
Gonzalez said he sees more young players
at home competing in soccer these days.
I dont like baseball. I dont watch baseball, he said, shaking his head back and
forth for emphasis.
The 34th-ranked Americans lacked flow

during the group stage, when Clint Dempsey


scored three goals as they beat Honduras 2-1,
defeated Haiti 1-0 and tied Panama 1-1.
Defender John Brooks is suspended for yellow-card accumulation, forcing Klinsmann
to change his back line. He added left back
DaMarcus Beasley, midfielder Joe Corona
and forward Alan Gordon to his roster this
week in place of defender Greg Garza, midfielder Alfredo Morales and forward Jozy
Altidore, who didnt appear at full strength
following a hamstring injury in mid-May.
Beasley, 33, has 121 international appearances and is the only American to play in
four World Cups. If he starts at left back,
Fabian Johnson could move to right back,
where Johnson played during last years
World Cup, or up to the midfield.

JOE D
Continued from page 11
On the seventh pitch of the at-bat,
Galea again broke for home, but
Katout could not get the bat on it and
Galea was hung out to dry, getting
tagged out in rundown for the first
out of the inning.
On the eighth pitch, Katout delivered the game-winning blow.
The guys, late in the game, really
started paying attention (to their atbats), said San Bruno manager
Edgar Hernandez.
Having beaten San Carlos 10-0
earlier in the week, Hernandez
believed his team may have been
overconfident Friday.
It settled in (to our minds) that
San Carlos was not going to roll
over, Hernandez said.
It was almost too little, too late.
After threatening in the top of the
first inning, San Carlos got on the
board first in the top of the second.
Brandenburg led off the inning with
a solid single to left. Jonathan Kelly
came up and hit a routine single to
right that proceeded to bounce
over the rightfielders head,
enabling Brandenburg to score all
the way from first for a 1-0 San
Carlos lead.
San Carlos added two more runs in
the top of the third thanks to
another error in right field. Matt
Lopez, who reached base in all four

last years Japanese Grand Prix.


Bianchi, 25, had been in a coma
since the Oct. 5 accident, in which
he collided at high speed with a
mobile crane which was being used
to pick up another crashed car.
Bianchi competed in 34 races
over the 2013 and 2014 seasons.
of his plate appearances, led off the
inning with a single and went to
third on a Mann double. Julian
Billot followed and singled to right
through a drawn-in San Bruno
infield. Lopez scored easily and
when the ball rolled under the rightfielders glove, Mann also scored for
a 3-0 San Carlos advantage.
San Carlos, however, would garner only one more hit the rest of the
game a Mike Michellini single in
the fourth.
San Bruno, meanwhile, was struggling with Brandenburg.
Most of our guys were trying to
hit the ball too hard, Katout said.
[Brandenburg] shoved it right to us.
He had a lot of movement. We had a
hard time picking it up.
San Bruno was relieved then when
Brandenburg finally exited the game
in the sixth inning. Following
McDaids walk, he stole second,
went to third on a Kevin Uniacke fly
ball to center and scored on a Ryan
Cuddy groundout to cut San Carlos
lead to 3-1.
San Bruno completed the comeback in the seventh. Brendan
Downes led off the rally with a walk
on a full count and Katout followed
with a single. A Cole Galli sacrifice
bunt moved both runners into scoring position and McDaid drove them
both in with a double to tie the score
at 3.
Thats the blue-collar Bruno in
us, Katout said of his teams neversay-die attitude. We never gave up.

nity programs, a recent capital needs
assessment highlighted millions of dollars
worth of unfunded projects.
Since 1990, the state has taken $50 million from San Mateo to address its own
budget deficit. At the same time, San Mateo
has prudently managed its operating budget
within the revenues generated by Measure L,
and has been able to restore some of the
services previously reduced, Mayor
Maureen Freschet wrote in an email.
However, like many cities in California,
San Mateo has more than $360 million in
unfunded needs, some of which were deferred
due to the recession. Our community
should be given the opportunity to consider
whether they want a reliable source of locally-controlled funding to address these
essential long-term investments in our
structural integrity, safety and quality of
life.

of a hospital being closed, he said. This
is a relief to our community.
He also urged Harris to give the deal a
green light.
The attorney general should approve this
buyer as soon as possible, he said.
Under the terms previously imposed by
Harris on the agreement with Prime, the
buyer had been required to run Daughters of
Charity facilities for 10 years, but the
health care company offered only five
years, among a variety of other conditions.
The agreement with BlueMountain, which
is worth approximately $21 billion, allows
the investment firm to purchase the health
system after three years, according to a
report from the health system.
Daughters of Charity had been losing
about $10 million per month, prior to striking a deal with BlueMountain, which is
headquartered in New York.

LOCAL

THE DAILY JOURNAL

While Measure L was touted as a temporary increase, Councilman David Lim and
Deputy Mayor Jack Matthews noted the
citys needs have changed.
To me, I dont see this as an extension of
the original intent of why we had Measure
L. Weve been getting complaints from people about our infrastructure since Ive been
on the council, and mainly its regarding
peoples streets, Lim said. Its something
thats already existing, weve had six years
of paying this tax and it hasnt shown itself
to be a burden on people. I think of this
(measure) as a repositioning to something
thats very necessary.
Only requiring a majority threshold to
pass, the revenue would go into the citys
general fund and could support fire and
police services, parks, street repairs, flood
control improvements as well as a range of
programs from serving seniors to recreation amenities, according to a staff report.
Matthews said the city proved to be a
good steward of the funds and kept its promises concerning how funds would be spent
from Measure L, as well as an increase in the
citys transient occupancy tax, or hotel tax.

When it was originally passed, it was an


emergency measure to help the city through
some very difficult economic times in terms
of providing police and fire services and
other critical services, while we were in a
deep recession, Matthews said. Weve
done what we said we would do for the voters; but theres other things that are out
there, that are long-term issues, that we still
have to deal with.
Due to the city having to postpone some
repairs, its now faced with more than a
dozen miles of streets in need of replacement, Matthews said.
Councilman Joe Goethals noted waiting
any longer could lead to more costly repairs
in the future.
I think its a really unique opportunity to
improve our infrastructure and make sure we
have service levels matching our population size. We really, over a long period of
time, allowed our infrastructure to fall into a
state where we really need to make this critical investment now, Goethals said.
The council made sure to do its homework
before considering the ballot measure by

hiring the consulting firm Godbe Research


to conduct a poll determining the efficacy of
placing the sales tax extension before voters.
Originally, the council was strongly considering a half-cent sales tax over a 20-year
period. However, with the San Mateo-Foster
City Elementary School District also contemplating placing a bond measure on the
coming ballot, Godbe found there is more
support for the quarter-cent sales tax extension, according to the report.
To proceed, the council must introduce an
ordinance and adopt a resolution to submit
the tax measure for the coming election.
The council must then adopt the ordinance
at its Aug. 3 meeting to make the countys
Elections Office deadline.

Officials from the health care system


expressed a similar appreciation for the
deal, as it will likely enable all hospitals
and medical centers to keep the current level
of service intact, according to a prepared
statement.
The transaction represents an extremely
attractive opportunity for [Daughters of
Charity Heath System], allowing it to continue its operations and mission as a nonprofit system with the support and backing
of strong and well-qualified partner organizations, said Robert Issai, president and
chief executive officer of the health system.
We are extremely excited by todays
announcement.
The deal guarantees all existing pension
and retirement plans will remain in place as
well, according to the report.
The Daughters of Charity registered nurses said they will closely monitor the transition, according to a prepared statement from
the California Nurses Association, which
represents some of the 1,800 registered
nurses as the system hospitals.
San Mateo County Supervisor Adrienne

Tissier, who represents District 5 which


includes Daly City, also expressed support
for the deal.
Im very pleased, she said. The one
thing that the Daughters of Charity had
needed was an infusion of cash, so this
should help them.
Seton Medical Center offers invaluable
service to north county residents, and keeping it in operation is a necessity, said
Tissier.
It would be a real disservice for residents
to go great distances to get health care, she
said.
Supervisors recently approved granting
nearly $5 million to Seton Medical Center
for providing safety net services for clients
of the Health Plan of San Mateo, as well as
subsidizing monthly payments worth $1.2
million.
San Mateo County voiced its appreciation
for the deal too, according to county
spokeswoman Michelle Durand.
The health of the countys most vulnerable and low-income residents is an utmost
priority and we are pleased to see the

Daughters of Charity Health System moving forward to ensure its hospital chain,
including Seton and Seton Coastside, can
continue providing essential services, she
said in an email.
Canepa said the deal with BlueMountain
relieves any financial uncertainty which the
health system had suffered in the past.
This provides the clear path which north
San Mateo County so desperately needed,
he said.
Seton is the largest job provider in Daly
City, responsible for 1, 200 workers.
Daughters of Charity operates other hospitals in San Jose, Gilroy, Lynwood and Los
Angeles.
Canepa expressed his excitement and
appreciation for the deal which guarantees
the hospital would remain able to offer valuable health care services to local patients.
We are delighted the Daughters of
Charity found that buyer, he said. Relief

From Holocaust
survivor to Medal
of Honor recipient
By Jerry Harkavy
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Irrational Man falls short of late-career


home runs like Midnight in Paris and
Blue Jasmine, it also feels more fully
realized than last years visually gorgeous but otherwise uneven period piece,
Magic in the Moonlight.
As always, the casting is something any
director would kill for. Here, we have
Joaquin Phoenix (grizzled, slightly potbellied) as an existentially challenged phi-

After surviving the Holocaust and a year


in a notorious Nazi concentration camp,
Tibor Rubin fought as a U.S. Army infantryman in Korea, displaying the kind of raw
courage associated with Hollywood war
movies and going on to spend more than
two years as a prisoner of war.
The bravery
displayed by
the Hungarianborn Jew in
singlehandedly repelling an
assault by hundreds of North
Korean troops
and capturing
scores
of
enemy soldiers
in a subsequent
encounter went
un reco g n i zed
for more than
50 years. His
c o m m a n di n g
officers recommended Rubin for the Medal
of Honor, but his sergeant a virulent antiSemite refused to send in the papers. The
commanders were killed in combat and
Rubins acts of courage were forgotten.
That wrong was finally corrected in 2005
when a decades-long campaign involving
soldiers who fought alongside Rubin and
were with him in a Chinese-run POW camp
came to fruition as President George W.
Bush presented the 76-year-old veteran with
the nations highest award for valor.
Single Handed is a story of endurance,
bravery and determination that rivals that of
Louis Zamperini, the hero of Laura
Hillenbrands Unbroken, the best-seller
about a World War II aviator who survived 47
days on a life raft in the Pacific before being
held captive and tortured in a Japanese
prison.

Allens film a meditation


on meaning and murder
By Jocelyn Noveck
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Woody Allen has always been interested


in mans search for meaning in life a
search he clearly sees as futile. Who can
forget the young woman in Play it Again,
Sam, staring at a Jackson Pollock painting and seeing the hideous lonely emptiness of existence, nothingness, the
predicament of man forced to live in a barren, godless eternity? Thats not even the

whole quote but it could be Allens


mantra.
The director has also mined the themes of
crime and punishment, including murder
think Crimes and Misdemeanors and
Match Point. All these threads plus, of
course, love and seduction come together
in his 45th feature, Irrational Man, which
may not be his very best recent work, but is
by far not his worst, either.

Spotlight shined on the


school-to-prison pipeline
By Judy Richter
DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT

Playwright-actor-teacher Anna Deavere


Smith has created and presented several
one-woman shows dealing with important
social issues or events.
Her latest is Notes From the Field: Doing
Time in Education, the California Chapter,
presented by Berkeley Repertory Theatre.
As she has done in her previous shows,
she bases this work on hundreds of hours of
interviews with people who have varying
experience with, in this case, education and
the criminal justice system.
She then re-creates these people using

their exact words and manner of speaking.


She focuses on the school-to-prison
pipeline, in which students failed by the
schools are likely to land up in jail.
Many of them are people of color whose
needs arent served by their schools and
community. Many are treated unfairly by
the police, who are subject to frequent criticism in this show.
This aspect of the show is punctuated by
videos of police mistreating young black
people. One is a 14-year-old girl in her
bathing suit who is thrown to the ground
and handcuffed with her hands behind her

Spike Lee talks drafting story for NBA 2K16 video game
By Derrik J. Lang
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LOS ANGELES NBA 2K16 will be a Spike Lee joint.


2K Games announced Thursday that it recruited the
acclaimed filmmaker and die-hard New York Knicks fan
to write and direct the single-player campaign for the interactive basketball franchises next edition.
What did it take for the creator of such landmark films as
Do the Right Thing and He Got Game to sign on to produce a video game?
They asked me, Lee matter-of-factly noted during a
recent phone interview from Chicago, where hes in production on his next project, Chiraq.
Lee said the games story centers on a basketball player
named Frequency Vibrations, whose personal exploits off
the court are just as chaotic as the game on it.
Its about the trials and tribulations of life on a big stage
with the money, fame, temptations, family members, the
press, fans, all that stuff, said Lee.
While the game is a basketball simulation at its heart,
NBA 2K developer Visual Concepts has integrated cinematic elements into the single-player mode over the past
five years. For the latest round, the gamemakers passed that
task to Lee in hopes of achieving a slam dunk with gamers.
It wasnt a hard sell, said Jeff Thomas, vice president of
sports development at Visual Concepts. Spike was really
receptive when I first met with him. He actually said to us,
Its about time I worked with 2K. He loves basketball, and
this is a new frontier for him.
The Malcom X and She Hate Me filmmaker focused on
drawing out realistic performances from actors, whose voices and movements were all digitally recorded. Lee, whose
teenage son Jackson is an avid gamer, said he actually felt
liberated working on a motion-capture stage for the first
time in his career.
I didnt really realize how quick it was going to be, said
Lee. We didnt have to do costumes, makeup or hair. We didnt have to move props around. We didnt have to move from
location to location. Everything was just there.
Despite the writer-directors penchant for gritty storytelling, NBA 2K16 wont only be aimed at adults. Lee
worked within creative parameters set forth by the NBA and
2K Games.
We make an E-rated game, said Thomas. Its an NBA
licensed project and obviously the NBA cares a lot about
their brand and makes sure we stick within those boundaries.
Spike understood that from the get-go, but he didnt take his
foot off the gas because of that. He still brought the drama.
The series previous installment, NBA 2K15, has sold
more than 5.5 million copies since its release last October,
according to 2K Games parent company, Take-Two
Interactive Software Inc.
NBA 2K16 will feature Stephen Curry, James Harden and
Anthony Davis on three separate covers. It isnt the first
time 2K Games has sunk such star power into the successful
sports series.

While the game is a basketball simulation at its heart,NBA 2K developer Visual Concepts has integrated cinematic elements
into the single-player mode over the past five years. For the latest round, the gamemakers passed that task to Spike Lee in
hopes of achieving a slam dunk with gamers.

losophy professor, Emma Stone (utterly effervescent) as his bright-eyed student, and Parker
Posey (warmly kooky) as the sex-starved academic who forms the third side of this odd triangle.
The setting is Newport, Rhode Island, and
that wind-swept, seaside town looks beautiful
no surprise, given the pedigree of cinematographer Darius Khondji. Its summer session at a small college, and Abe Lucas
(Phoenix) arrives to teach philosophy.
Accomplished and brilliant, hes also known
for having affairs with students and swigging
often from a flask in his pocket. That should
put some Viagra into the philosophy department, an observer says of his arrival.
Abe is precisely the sort of disgruntled,
unattainable intellectual that young women
cant stay away from. Thats what happens to
Jill (Stone), whos beautiful, brilliant, kind
and also an accomplished pianist (that last part
may be overkill, but its certainly not the
films most outlandish plot point). Bored with
her clean-cut boyfriend, she finds herself
drawn to her bad-boy professor, whos so
darned interesting and different.
Meanwhile, frustrated wife Rita (Posey) has
been dreaming of bedding Abe since before
his arrival, and will NOT be denied. Yet Abes
long stretch of depression has left him with
some issues in the sack.
Whats more, hes exhibiting disturbing
nihilistic tendencies. At a party, he gets hold of
the family gun and plays a game of real
Russian Roulette, hoping to teach some sort of

metaphysical lesson.
Everything changes, though, when Abe and
Jill overhear a conversation in a diner. A
beleaguered mother is facing a court case that
may cost her custody of her children; the
judge is corrupt. If the bad judge were out of
the picture, Abe reasons, wouldnt the world
be so much better? He immediately begins
plotting a solution, and this dark quest fills
him with a new zest for life.
Yes, its a leap but Allens films are
famous for such leaps (Time travel, anyone?
People coming out of movie screens?) You
either go with it or you dont.
The same goes for Allens breezy mix of
light and dark tones. The subject may seem
too dark for comedy, the treatment (and jazzy
score) too light for tragedy. But the director
balances it in his own way, and as always, we
can take it or leave it.
To sell the films escalating implausibility,
of course, Allen needs strong and appealing
performances. Luckily he has them: Phoenix
and Posey are pitch-perfect, and as for Stone,
shes more watchable than ever. If life is
indeed a barren godless eternity, one could
do worse than spend it with this beguiling
actress.

Schumer, Hader shine


in bawdy Trainwreck
By Lindsey Bahr
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

In Trainwreck, Amy Schumer wades into movies for the first time. Her arrival in Hollywood, like
many of her punchlines, is well timed.

Schumer walks into Hollywood,


and leaves armed with material
By Jake Coyle
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK A recurring feeling has


accompanied Amy Schumers rapid ascent in
show business.
Its always: I walk in a room thinking
maybe I belong in here, she says over a
plate of meatballs at a Greenwich Village
cafe. And then I get reminded quickly that I
dont. But then no one really does. And Im
going to do it again.
Its getting hard to find a room too big or
too prestigious for the 34-year-old Schumer.
In her rise to becoming one of the pre-eminent stand-ups in the country, Schumer has
emerged as one of the sharpest, wittiest
commentators on gender in America. Her
humor satirical, raunchy, absurdist is
built on a fresh and on-point feminism, alert
to both the injustices of sexism and the
helpless farce of the sexes.
Shes turned her Peabody-winning
Comedy Central show, Inside Amy
Schumer, into a spinning collider of gender
roles, firing out weekly, instantly viral parodies of men and women, in bed and on
screens.
In Trainwreck, a comedy she wrote and
stars in, Schumer wades into movies for the
first time. Her arrival in Hollywood, like
many of her punchlines, is well timed. Her
voice feels particularly valuable to a movie
industry wrestling with gender equality.
Its a conversation Schumer has already
joined, most notably in a sketch about the
expiration date of sexual attractiveness for
women in Hollywood. In it, Tina Fey and
Patricia Arquette toasted Julia LouisDreyfus final day.
Schumers introduction to the superficiality of Hollywood, she reckons, has already
given her 20 minutes of new material. The
jokes have included her expectation a more
attractive actress, a Kate (like Kate Upton
or Kate Middleton), would be cast in her
place, and her insistence that her Los
Angeles experience has proven shell never
be a movie star.
Definitely not, she confirmed in a
recent interview. Im not doing it. I dont
like anything that comes along with it. I
dont like it so much that I dont know if I
would ever do it again. I left the press junket
like, Stand-ups cool.
Yet Trainwreck, directed by Judd
Apatow, has already won glowing reviews
for its crude humor and sweet authenticity. It
flips the usual conventions of a romantic
comedy. Schumer plays a serial dater and the
men (Bill Hader, flanked by his protective
friend, Lebron James) are the ones yearning
for a second date.
It wasnt a conscious inversion, she says,
but is simply true to her experience. One of
her most famous sketches, a full-episode
version of 12 Angry Men in which jurors
weigh whether Schumer is hot enough for
TV, also came from a bloggers comments.
Im trying to do my part, just so people
can feel comfortable in their own skin, she
says. I dont think we should throw out all

the hot people. But people are actually OK


with looking at people other than models.
They actually kind of like it.
That underlying message of self-acceptance has made Schumer a kind of comic
everywoman candidly baring her anxieties
and embarrassments and triumphs over
them for an understanding audience.
Its you saying, Yeah, isnt it ridiculous
I had to go through this? And their laughter
is saying, Yes, that sounds horrible! she
says.
Schumer has given moving, personal
speeches (I say if Im beautiful. I say if Im
strong, at the Gloria Awards) and hysterically unapologetic ones.
I am really in it to talk to the women in
the crowd, if Im being totally honest, she
says. But what Ive found is that the men
want to hear it, too. Theyre interested, and
they want to empower the women in their
lives. And women are just as much to blame
as men for why were not able to understand
each other.
Her talent has lured not just Apatow but
Chris Rock (director of her upcoming HBO
special) and Madonna, whom Schumer will
open for in September. In Manhattan, where
the Long Island-native lives, shes now
constantly recognized by passionate followers. Its not like Youre the funny girl.
Its like, I love you, she says.
Im always impressed with people that
find a way to do this work, which is so difficult, and have a blast, says Apatow, who
contacted Schumer after hearing her on
Howard Stern. She has a great team supporting her and I think shes found a way to
be a great leader at that show.
Jessi Klein, the head writer of Inside Amy
Schumer, describes Schumer as an unusually dedicated comic who will spend a day
shooting and then rush to perform a set or
two at night. Klein said the writers room
(where Schumers sister, Kim, also works) is
humming with a sense of limitless material
rife for parody.
I dont think a lot of shows have tackled
these issues yet in a way thats funny and
real, says Stein. Amy, obviously, is a
really distractive voice, and it feels like
were talking about stuff that people havent
really talked about so far, and that hopefully
they will now.
More attention also means more scrutiny.
A recent column in the Guardian, citing a
sketch from the shows first season, claimed
Schumer has a blind spot around race.
Schumer posted online that the sketch had
been misinterpreted and that she wouldnt
start joking about safe material a
response she now regrets.
I talked to Louie (C. K. ) and Lena
(Dunham) and Chris Rock and they were
like, Yeah, you cant respond, said
Schumer. But the resulting headlines crystalized the new challenges coming for
Schumer.
The pressure is that there are more eyes
on me, says Schumer, a cousin of New York
Senator Chuck Schumer. It is strange to be
treated like a politician all of a sudden.

Women can be jerks, too. Everyone knows


that.
And yet in the movies, the female schmuck
is generally relegated to side characters. Shes
a friend. Shes a villain. Shes never the heroine.
In the outdated rulebook of who we get to
see on the big screen, leading ladies need to
be likable that tiresome, comedy-killing
characteristic.
Thank goodness, then for Amy Schumer,
the paradigm-busting, enfant terrible whos
there to snap us out of our malaise with one
rowdy gal: Amy.
Her vehicle, Trainwreck, written by and
starring Schumer, luxuriates in the idea of
selfishness while shifting our antiquated
ideas of what we want from a female lead,
because, most importantly, its very funny.
Bawdy, brash and beaming with confidence
in every mistake, Amy does not suffer fools
gladly or suitors at all.
As a young girl, her good time Charlie
father (Colin Quinn) instills in her the idea
that monogamy is impossible. Or,
monogamy isnt realistic as he makes Amy
and her even younger sister recite over and
over after a conversation comparing partners
to dolls.
It becomes her mantra. We meet up with her
23 years later, boozing and sleeping her way
through Manhattan. Well, not sleeping. She
never sleeps over at a mans place or lets them
stay at hers.
Amy is pro-pleasure, anti-romance, and just

a modern chick who does what she wants in


gold lam miniskirts. Shes a self-satisfied
mess.
Her sister Kim (Brie Larson) has chosen a
different route, marrying a sweet, dorky guy
(Mike Birbiglia) with a sweet dorky son
(Evan Brinkman). Amy pokes fun at them
with caustic abandon.
Were it not for the great performances from
Larson and Birbiglia, the ongoing fingerpointing at Kims boring life might just come
across as mean. Instead, they just accept Amy
(with an eye roll).
Amy is a true jerk. Shes selfish. Shes rude.
And she knows it. Its an interesting line that
the movie skirts for the duration and a testament to Schumer that this mostly unlikable
character remains enjoyable to watch.
Shes is fun, but shes not nice or thoughtful. Nor does she want to be.
All this makes it particularly odd that for
about 75 percent of the movie this freewheeling character is not only in a relationship,
but shes in a relationship with a really, truly
nice guy.
Amys editor (an excellent, unrecognizable
Tilda Swinton) assigns her to profile a successful sports doctor Aaron Conners (Bill
Hader) for Snuff, a mens magazine with
Vice bite.
They meet, click, and get down to business
after a drunken night out.
Pretty soon, and without much of a fight,
theyre subway kissing, Brooklyn Bridgegazing, Central Park carriage-riding, and
engaging in other cheesy rom-com tropes
that are overlaid with a snarky, self-conscious
voiceover from Amy.

WEEKEND JOURNAL

RAMADAN
Continued from page 1
forgetfulness amidst conversation or
pangs of hunger brought on by extended periods without food or water,
Kedkad is thankful for the lessons he
absorbs during the Islamic holiday.
It makes you a better person. It
steers you away from anything that is
not good for you, he said. Fasting is
really a blessing.
Kedkad, 59, is a former president of
the Yaseen Foundation, which is a
Muslim community centered around a
mosque in Belmont, 621 Masonic
Way, and the recently purchased center,
1722 Gilbreth Road along the
Bayshore in Burlingame.
The foundation serves a broad community of Muslims across the
Peninsula, through its nearly 500
members, but between 2, 000 and
3,000 participate in rituals surrounding the holidays, said Kedkad.
Hundreds showed up every day to the
community center in Burlingame for
prayer ceremonies and meals breaking
the day-long fasting period of
Ramadan, which lasts between sunrise
and sunset spanning Wednesday, June
16, through Friday, July 17.
Ramadan is observed annually by
Muslims internationally by fasting to
commemorate the first revelation of
the Quran to Muhammad.
The dates of the holiday change
according to the revolution of the
lunar calendar, and this year landed

to an estimated 46,095 homes despite
unusually tight supplies. It marked an
increase of 10.8 percent from 41,612
sales in May and 16.8 percent from
39,460 sales a year earlier.
The economy is clearly in a much
better place than it was a year ago,
said Stuart Gabriel, director of the
UCLA Ziman Center for Real Estate.
The (economic) fundamentals clearly
support what were seeing in the housing market.
Buyers may also be trying to get
ahead of an anticipated increase in
interest rates by the Federal Reserve,
Gabriel said.
The San Francisco Bay Area notched

when days are longest in the heart of


the summer, which extends the period
of time between meals.
Dean Abualhasan, a Foster City resident, said though the days are long,
and balancing personal and professional obligations on an empty stomach is not always ideal, he still finds
tremendous value in fasting.
He said the ability to abstain from
what the body needs to operate educates practitioners about the ease of
not falling victim to the temptation of
other activities that can be harmful.
It teaches you discipline, he said.
If you can control what is allowed,
then you can control your bad habits.
Kedkad concurred, and added fasting
can breed compassion for others who
suffer from hunger and malnutrition.
Whether you are rich or poor, it
gets us all on the same level, he said.
The last full day of fasting was
Thursday, July 16, and Friday, July 17,
marked Eid-al-Fitr, which was an interits highest sales tally since August
2006, while the median sales price
neared its peak during the boom in the
previous decade.
The median price in the city of San
Francisco topped $1.1 million.
The median price in the nine-county
Bay Area hit $660,000, up 6.8 percent
from $618, 000 a year earlier,
CoreLogic said. It peaked during the
last cycle at $665,000 in the summer
of 2007.
Sales were particularly strong in
suburbs, climbing 27 percent from a
year earlier in Contra Costa County
and 30 percent in Solano County.
Those areas are starting to attract
more commuters as prices reach unaffordable levels, said Jeffrey Michael,
director of the Center for Business
Policy and Research at University of
the Pacific in Stockton. The economy

national day of celebration and prayer


for Muslims.
Members of the Yaseen Foundation
rented the San Mateo County Event
Center to observe the holiday, which
featured food, social activities and
games for children, among a variety of
other attractions.
Despite the hardships of going long
hours without a meal, Abualhasan said
the enjoyment he draws from the
social and communal elements far outweighs any side effects of fasting.
Its really just a big celebration,
he said. We get to see a lot of friends
that we havent seen in a long time.
Kedkad echoed those sentiments.
It ends up being a very festive
month, he said. It is a great chance
to get everyone together.
Kedkad noted the influence the holiday has on his family, as he offered his
8-year-old son an opportunity to fast
only a portion of the day during
Ramadan.
But his son has committed to full day
of fasting, which Kedkad said had little
impact on the young boys desire to
play and enjoy his summer to the
fullest extent.
He said his son is learning, just as he
did, the virtue of commitment to discipline, and the variety of other lessons
taught during Ramadan.
Its tough, but you get used to it,
he said. The will of God gives us the
perseverance.

is strong and the jobs are there.
Mike Fracisco, a Bay Area broker in
Alameda and Contra Costa counties,
said his buyers are increasingly highpaid employees at San Francisco technology companies.
Its surprising to see the income
levels of these homeowners coming
in, much higher than what weve seen
during the last seven years, said
Fracisco, who had multiple offers
within days on each of three homes he
listed the first week of July between
$500,000 and $800,000.
Gains extended throughout the state.
Southern California also posted its
highest monthly sales since August
2006, according to CoreLogic. The
median sales price in the six-county
region was $442,000, up 5.7 percent
from $418,000 a year earlier.
