Housing task force launches

Group to brainstorm solutions to gap between jobs and housing
By Bill Silverfarb
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
With the economy in boom, San Mateo

County has added tens of thousands of jobs in
the past few years but only a fraction of the
housing needed to accommodate them.
With rents up 50 percent in four years to an
average of more than $2,500 a month for a
one-bedroom apartment, many low-wage
earners can no longer afford to live in the
Don Horsley
county while a new glut of

high-tech workers and
other professionals can.
To address the gap in
housing to jobs, the San
Mateo County Board of
Supervisors convened a
task force to tackle the
housing crisis that met for
the first time Thursday
morning.
The
Closing
the
Jobs/Housing Gap Task
Force will work over the
next year to find ways to
preserve and increase
housing at all price levels
in the county.
It is comprised of elected officials, educators,
Warren Slocum nonprofit heads and business leaders.
The goal of the task force is to identify the

issues, strategize potential tools, solicit community input at a future date and create a
menu of options for participants to bring back
to their constituents and communities for consideration.
It is being co-chaired by supervisors Don
Horsley and Warren Slocum.
Horsley told the Daily Journal Thursday

San Mateo police found 26-year-old Tommy Ray Evans with syringes at the downtown Caltrain Station Thursday afternoon.
Police say Evans stole prescription drugs after allegedly holding a knife to a Walgreens pharmacists neck Tuesday.
Alleged pharmacy robber arrested

Florida man caught at San Mateo Caltrain station, charged with kidnapping
By Samantha Weigel
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Just two days after an armed man

allegedly held a knife to a pharmacists
neck while he stole prescription drugs
from a San Mateo Walgreens, police
arrested a 26-year-old Florida native
they believe is responsible.
Tommy Ray Evans was arrested at the
downtown Caltrain Station Thursday
around 2:40 p.m. after an alert San
Mateo police officer recognized him
from the stores surveillance video.

Evans was booked into county jail on
two felony counts of armed robbery, kidnapping and related enhancements.
Depending on what the district attorney
decides to charge, he could be looking at
decades in prison after making off with
prescription drugs and syringes, said San
Mateo police Sgt. Rick Decker.
This was a pretty desperate act,
Decker said, noting the rise in cases
related to opioid addiction. I cant think
of another pharmacy robbery in San
Mateo, but its definitely becoming more

and more of a trend in California.
Evans was allegedly caught on the
Walgreens surveillance cameras nonchalantly walking into the store on the 4000
block of South El Camino Real before
12:45 p.m. Hes then seen hopping over
the pharmacy counter wielding a large
knife. He grabbed the pharmacist around
the shoulders and held the knife near her
neck as he walked her to the back of the
pharmacy, according to police.

For now, South San Francisco residents can continue renting

their homes on short-term vacation websites without being
required to pay an additional fee, under a decision by the City
Council.
The South San Francisco City Council agreed Wednesday,
Sept. 23, to postpone imposing regulations on the short-term
vacation rentals, due to questions over whether the burgeoning
local market required oversight.
Officials had considered subjecting residents who wish to
temporarily rent their homes on Airbnb, VRBO, Homekey or
other similar websites to a $150 business license fee, as well
as additional taxes.

Dead whale found on San
Francisco Bay Area parkland
FREMONT Another dead whale
has washed ashore in the San Francisco
Bay Area.
The whale was discovered Tuesday
afternoon in a remote area about 150
yards south of the Alameda Creek on the
Don Edwards San Francisco Bay
National Wildlife Refuge in Fremont,
says East Bay Regional Park District
spokeswoman Carolyn Jones.
The whale is not in an area that is
readily accessible to the public, Jones
said. The juvenile whale is badly
decomposed. There are no plans to
remove it. A necropsy is planned.
Its not uncommon for dead whales to
wash ashore on beaches in nearby
Alameda, California.
The carcass is the latest of at least a
dozen dead whales, including grays, a
humpback and a sperm whale, that have
been documented in Northern California
since March. Biologists dont know
whats killing the whales.

Los Angeles beach closed

after waste washes ashore
LOS ANGELES A Los Angeles
beach remained closed Thursday after
hypodermic needles, condoms and other
waste washed ashore and excessive bacteria levels were found in the water.
County health officials announced the
closure of Dockweiler State Beach on
Wednesday after the waste was spotted
in sand along the 4-mile beach near Los
Angeles International Airport.
Health officials collected at least 200
pounds of waste, Los Angeles Sanitation
District spokeswoman Tonya Durrell
said. Officials believe it was discharged
from a pipeline belonging to the cityowned Hyperion Treatment Plant.
The mile-long pipeline had been dormant but was brought back online last
week as a heavy storm strained the regular 5-mile pipeline.
It may have been sitting there and as
a result, the heavy rain storm and first
flush of all of that may have pushed that
matter out into the bay, Durrell said.

Furry fun for the whole family

Pet Parade returns to Burlingame this weekend, with new attractions
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL
Members of the Burlingame community

will flock, walk, gallop and, in some cases
even, slither to the Pet Parade this weekend.
The annual event will take place Saturday,
Sept. 26, at 10 a.m. on Broadway, and feature
a variety of family-oriented fun and competitions recognizing best dressed pet, most original float and best pet trick, among many other
attractions.
New to the event this year is a best float
competition, which will be held between
members of the Burlingame school community, and the winner stands to receive $500
which will go toward benefiting educational
programming.
Karen Lyons, who is helping to spearhead
designing the Roosevelt Elementary School
float, said the school competition adds an
additional layer of intrigue to this years
event.
This is all in good fun, she said. We will
support our other schools as much as we can.
But she noted Broadway is the region which
feeds into enrollment at Roosevelt, so the
school feels a small desire to protect what it
considers its home territory.
Lyons said the students will build their float
around promoting the schools annual chili
cookoff, which benefits its parent-teacher
association.
She said nearly 30 students have contributed to helping decorate the float, and
there will be a students dad acting as a mascot dressed in a jalapeo costume to lead the
schools participation in the parade.
Community members who wish to walk
their pet in the parade are invited to register.
Most frequently people come with their dogs,
said Mayor Terry Nagel, but she said she has
seen a wide variety of pets at the event such as
mice, cats, birds or even more eclectic part-

was worried about her elderly parents trying to flee a massive
California wildfire on horseback.
A couple needing help evacuating
waited for deputies in a creek near
their home. A woman fretted that
her mother with Alzheimers wouldnt know to leave.
Those were just a few of the overwhelming number of calls the tiny
Lake County Sheriffs Department
received during the fast-moving
blaze that began Sept. 12 about 100
miles north of San Francisco.
Dispatch logs released Thursday
showed the small department was

that swept across the mountainous
county.
The response was as quick as we
could do it, Sheriff Brian Martin

said. In some cases it didnt reach
everybody.
The logs show worried relatives
calling often to request checks on
elderly and sick residents feared
trapped in their homes. Screams for
help were reported from residents
unable to get out of the fire zone,
while other callers pleaded for
deputies to rescue livestock and pets
left behind.
The 40 pages of logs involving
dispatchers and deputies told the
story of the unfolding disaster,
detailing the frantic scramble to
evacuate people and animals as the
fire ripped through miles of dry vegetation.
Deputies were asked to help
enforce mandatory evacuation
orders just 30 minutes after the fire
started.

Pope appeals to Congress, SAINT JUNIPERO SERRA

tells U.S. nuns I love you
By Nicole Winfield
and Erica Werner
NEW YORK Pope Francis plunged

into the melting pot of New York on
Thursday after reminding the country of
its immigrant origins in the first papal
speech before Congress. At an evening
prayer service in St. Patricks Cathedral,
he thanked American nuns for their
strength and courage in a deeply meaningful acknowledgement of their service
following a yearslong Vatican crackdown.
Over 40 hours in New York, the pope
will address world leaders at the United
Nations, participate in an interfaith service
at the Sept. 11 memorial and celebrate
Mass at Madison Square Garden. He will
visit a school in Harlem and take a drive
through Central Park, part of a whirlwind
tour of the Big Apple that got off to a
quintessential welcome with a high school
brass band serenading him with New
York, New York, on the airport tarmac.
The popular pontiff received raucous
cheers upon his arrival in Manhattan.
Thousands of people lined the streets
leading to St. Patricks to greet him, cheering, waving flags and adoringly chanting
his name as he gestured toward them from
his popemobile. On the steps of the

including Gov. Andrew Cuomo, Mayor
Bill de Blasio and U.S. Sen. Charles
Schumer welcomed him for an evening
vespers service.
Once inside, the pews full of U.S.
priests and sisters erupted in applause
when Francis told American nuns he
wanted to thank them for their strength,
spirit and courage and to tell you that I
love you very much.
It was the strongest expression yet of

his gratitude after the Vatican under his
predecessor ordered an overhaul of the
largest umbrella group of U.S. sisters,
accusing them of straying from church
teaching. The nuns denied the charge and
received an outpouring of support from
American Catholics, and the crackdown
ended this year, two years early, with no
major changes.
McConnell moves ahead with stopgap spending bill

Republican moved swiftly to avoid a
government shutdown in six days, pushing legislation that would keep agencies
operating without a contentious fight

The action of Majority Leader Mitch

Senate vote blocking a bill that would
have stripped Planned Parenthood of its
taxpayer funding while keeping the gov-
ernment
running
through Dec. 11.
The vote was 4752, falling short of a
majority and well
shy of the 60 votes
required to overcome
a filibuster led by
Democrats.

McConnell immediately offered a
bipartisan stopgap spending bill free of

the Planned Parenthood dispute thats
expected to easily clear the Senate next
week by a wide bipartisan margin. He
has for almost a year promised that
Republicans controlling Congress wont
repeat the government shutdown of two
years ago.
In the House, GOP leaders called a
meeting of their fractious rank and file
for Friday morning to discuss whether to
accept the Senates move or reject it at
the risk that continuing the fight over
Planned Parenthood would lead to a
government shutdown.

Local brief
Residential burglary interrupted in Millbrae
Sheriffs deputies are on the lookout for two men wanted for
breaking into a home on the 100 block of Minorca Way in
Millbrae early Thursday morning.
At approximately 5:54 a.m., deputies responded to the
report of a burglary after a home owner reported confronting
someone inside the residence. The man ran from inside with
the home owner following. He met up with another man waiting outside and both were last seen south on Minorca Way
toward Millbrae Avenue, according to the Sheriffs Office.
Miscellaneous items of jewelry were taken and the resident
was not harmed. The investigation is still ongoing, but there
did not appear to be a forced entry. The suspect may have
entered the residence as an automatic garage door was in the
process of closing, according to the Sheriffs Office.
The men were described as black, early 20s, tall and thin and
with gray hooded sweatshirts and dark pants, according to the
Sheriffs Office.

upsize it in conjunction with a nearby construction project, according the Estero
Municipal Improvement District.
The line is redundant and should not affect
any customers current level of service and
the district will minimize discoloration as
much as possible by conducting strategic
hydrant flushing and monitoring system
pressure, flow and operations. Customers
who notice cloudy or discolored water
should run the tap briefly until only clear
water comes out. It should take only a few
moments to remove any discolored water,
according to the district.
Construction will occur in Tidelands Park
adjacent to 400 Mariners Island Blvd. in San
Mateo and is not expected to impact traffic
in the area. The district serves Foster City
and a portion of San Mateo.
Anyone who notices any low water pressure or other significant change to water
service should contact the Estero Municipal
Improvement District at 286-8140. For
more information contact Associate Civil
Engineer Laura Galli at 286-3280.
One of two Oakland men who pleaded not

guilty in January to fleeing San Mateo police
and starting a lengthy SWAT standoff after
they were allegedly caught stealing from cars
was back in court Thursday after failing to
appear at a previous court date, according to
the San Mateo County District Attorneys
Office.
The second suspect, however, remains a
fugitive.
Walter Mitchell, 26, allegedly pointed a
handgun at a police officer before fleeing into
a large apartment complex and getting into a
standoff with a SWAT team for most of the
night.
Mitchell missed a previous court date but
was back in court and in custody Thursday
after a $250,000 bench warrant was issued
for his arrest because he missed a Sept. 4
court date, according to prosecutors.
The second suspect, Andre Dupree-Lafleur
Jr., 22, who was arrested shortly after the two
crashed while fleeing from officers in San
Mateo, remains a fugitive, according to prosecutors.
Mitchell and Dupree-Lafleur allegedly
broke into cars in the Central Parking Garage
at East Fourth and Ellsworth avenues at about
7:20 p.m. Jan. 7.
The suspects allegedly fled the area in a silver Acura and police spotted a car with that
description nearby on East Fourth Avenue.
They attempted to stop the car, but the
driver fled, lost control of the car and
crashed into another car, a tree and a pole,
according to prosecutors.
Both occupants ran from the crash scene
ry committees beginning in January.

Seats are available on the Audit
Committee, which meets 7 p.m. in April

and Mitchell allegedly pointed a handgun at a
police officer as he fled. Dupree-Lafleur was
found walking nearby, prosecutors said.
Mitchell allegedly fled into a large apartment complex at South Eldorado Street and
East Third Avenue. Police surrounded the
building and shut down streets with the assistance of a SWAT team and aid from several
other local police departments.
The standoff lasted until about 12:30 a.m.
the next day, when Mitchell came out of the
front door and surrendered, prosecutors said.
Mitchell was on parole for manslaughter,
according to prosecutors.
Pacifica post office closed

after vehicle crashes into it
The Pacifica main post office is closed for

Obamas personal ties with

Xi yield mixed policy results

Rescue workers carry bodies of Muslim pilgrims after a stampede at Mina, outside the holy Muslim city of Mecca.
Over 700 killed in crush of

hajj pilgrims in Saudi Arabia
By Aya Batrawy
MINA, Saudi Arabia Two giant

waves of Muslim pilgrims collided
at an intersection Thursday near a
holy site in Saudi Arabia, and more
than 700 people were crushed and
trampled to death in the worst disaster at the hajj in a quarter-century.
People were climbing over one
another just to breathe, said
Abdullah Lotfy of Egypt. It was
like a wave. You go forward and
suddenly you go back.
The hajj, which drew 2 million

people from over 180 countries this
year, is a huge logistical challenge
for Saudi Arabia. The kingdom has
spent billions of dollars to accommodate the growing number of pilgrims and maintain safety and security at Islams holy cities of Mecca
and Medina for the annual event.
Saudi authorities began an investigation, said Interior Ministry
spokesman Maj. Gen. Mansour alTurki, adding that initial reports
showed two crowds coming from
opposing directions converged at an
WASHINGTON President
Barack Obama has invested more
time building personal ties with
Chinese President Xi Jinping than
with most other world leaders. But as
Xi arrived in Washington late
Thursday for a grand state visit, its
clear that Obamas overtures have
produced decidedly mixed results.
During intimate walks and hours
of private discussion around the
world, Obama and Xi forged a historic breakthrough to combat climate
change and collaborated on efforts to
curb Irans nuclear program. But
theres been little progress on a pair
of vexing security issues that will be
at the forefront of their latest round
of discussions: Chinas cyberspying
in the U.S. and its disputed territorial

claims in the Asian Pacific.

The assumptions that many people had, that cooperation on transnational threats like climate change
would ameliorate problems in
geopolitical arenas were wrong,
said Michael Green, White House
Asian Affairs director under
President George W. Bush and current senior vice president at the
Center for Strategic and International
Studies.

intersection in Mina, on the outskirts

of Mecca, when the pushing and
shoving started.
Unfortunately, these incidents
happen in a moment, al-Turki said
at a news conference.
But four survivors questioned how
officials managing the flow of people could allow two big crowds
going in different directions to intersect on two streets packed with pilgrims.
What happened was more than
they were ready for, Lotfy, 44, told
the Associated Press.
WASHINGTON The government stored sensitive personal information on millions of health insurance customers in a computer system with basic security flaws,
according to an official audit that
uncovered slipshod practices.
The Obama administration said it
acted quickly to fix all the problems
identified by the Health and Human
Services inspector generals office.
But the episode raises questions
about the governments ability to
protect a vast new database at a time

when cyberattacks are becoming
bolder.
Known as MIDAS, the $110-million system is the central electronic
storehouse for information collected
under President Barack Obamas
health care law.
It doesnt handle medical records,
but it does include names, Social
Security numbers, birthdates,
addresses, phone numbers, passport
numbers, employment status and
financial accounts of customers on
HealthCare.gov and state insurance
marketplaces.

Diplomats jostle to lay out their

position on how to end Syria war A
By Lori Hinnant and Cara Anna
PARIS Europes top diplomats, the

United States and Russia jostled to lay out
their positions Thursday on how best to end
the civil war in Syria, which has sent millions
fleeing their homes and killed thousands.
A central issue at the U.N.s largest gathering of world leaders next week will be how
and whether to include Syrian President
Bashar Assad in any talks about the future of
the country.
In the U.S., envoys said the Obama administration refused to negotiate over a Russian
statement they feared would strengthen
Assads hand at the United Nations. But
efforts to stem the long-running crisis have
new urgency in Europe, which is divided over
how to deal with a new influx of refugees fleeing the war zone.
Russia, meanwhile, is bolstering military
support for Assad, while U.S. support for
rebels fighting the Syrian leader has
foundered. About 4 million people have fled
Syria during the conflict, which the U.N. says

has killed more than 250,000.
A Kremlin spokesman has said Russian
President Vladimir Putin will meet President
Barack Obama on Monday.
A draft of Russias council statement,
obtained by the Associated Press, urges countries to fight extremist groups in coordination
with the governments of the affected states.
Sheba Crocker, the assistant U.S. secretary
of state for international organization affairs,
confirmed that the U.S. told Russia it couldnt
back the proposed statement.
One Security Council diplomat, speaking on
condition of anonymity because the discussion was not a public one, said Russias new
military buildup in Syria was hindering any
hope for talks.
The diplomat noted the recent flurry of
diplomatic activity on Syria after the Iran
nuclear deal was announced, including a
meeting between U.S. Secretary of State John
Kerry and Russian counterpart Sergei Lavrov
in Qatar, but said that window slammed
shut with Russias new military buildup.

On Sunday, the Episcopal Church of St.
Matthew, located in San Mateo on the corner of El Camino Real and Baldwin
Avenue, celebrated its 150th anniversary.
In a service led by the Rt. Rev Mark
Handley Andrus, bishop of California,
they celebrated the churchs rst 150 years
as well as the completion a new addition to
the church and day school. The Rector, the
Rev. Eric Kimball Hinds and Associate

Rector, the Rev. Lindsay Hills, joined in
leading the worship service.
In 1865, San Mateo was a mere village of
150 people, with a few houses located near
the railroad depot. George H. Howard and
his wife, Agnes, donated 2 acres near the
corner of Baldwin and El Camino to build
the rst Episcopal House of Worship on
the Peninsulas Bayside. The rst church
building was replaced by the current structure after the 1906 earthquake. The chancel
wall and roof of the church were seriously
damaged, and the bell tower collapsed.
Although the entire church building was not
demolished, the vestry decided to rebuild
the church rather then repair. The Gothic
style church, after an enlargement in 1957,
is what stands today.

OPINION
THE DAILY JOURNAL
Yes on Measure S
oters in San Mateo are

faced with a choice this
election whether they
want to extend a quarter-cent sales
tax passed in 2009 as a temporary measure to ensure nancial
stability in the midst of the Great
Recession.
Though Measure S is ofcially
an extension, to call it such is not
necessarily true to its intent and its
essence. When passed in 2009,
Measure L was seen as necessary
to bridge a nancial gap created by
dropping property and sales taxes
and ensure the city would not have
to make drastic cuts to its workforce. While the city enacted worker concessions to ensure scal stability, more was needed and
Measure L was able to provide
approximately $5 million a year to
keep city services stable. As that
measure is set to expire in 2018, it
might seem natural to allow it to
end and save the money of residents and others who buy products
in San Mateo especially since
the city is enjoying an economic
recovery along with the rest of the
region. City nances are stronger,
and the threat of cuts has passed.
However, the city is also seeking
to rectify an ongoing issue with
ood control mandated by the
Federal Emergency Management
Agency. While signicant strides
have been made in meeting the federal requirements and many resi-
Editorial
dents have been able to be taken
off a FEMA map requiring costly
insurance, there are still many residents particularly in the North
Shoreview area who still must
pay exorbitant rates for ood insurance. City ofcials explored a number of mechanisms to right this
wrong, including forming an infrastructure nance district that has
been recently allowed by the state
and forming an assessment district,
neither would have the capability
to pay for the estimated $23.5 million in needed projects. Residents
in other areas of the city could say
that this might not affect them and
they shouldnt have to pay, but
water ows down and creates
issues from all origins in the city
on the Bayfront. Additionally, the
impact of severe ooding as theorized by FEMA would be costly to
the city overall, and thus to all its
residents. And there is the intrinsic
notion of ensuring that each and
every resident of this city deserve
support from all of its residents.
One of the rationales of having the
quarter-cent sales tax for 30 years
is that it is required for bonds that
would pay for the improvements.
Having a 30-year source of dedicated revenue would ensure the
city could borrow the money needed for the ood control improve-
ments at a decent interest rate.

Additionally, the city suffers
from failing infrastructure including 19 miles of failed streets. The
revenue created by Measure S
would provide additional funding
for street repairs and rehabilitation
that has been lacking. One could
ask why these streets have been
allowed to get into disrepair but the
short answer is that the city did not
have a pavement management program until 2001. That program
inspects streets every two years to
better inform ofcials on what
repairs are needed and when.
Before the program, street repairs
were complaint driven and while it
is easy to ask why that was, it
doesnt matter in the present
because it just was at that time.
With 190 miles of streets in various
conditions, city ofcials have been
playing catchup since. This measure would allow for a quicker
catchup and a smoother ride for all.
The measure is still a general
tax and can be used for any city
service, and proponents point to
other needs like park maintenance
and public safety. While true that
the money can be used for any reason, $5 million a year goes relatively quick when contending with
ood control and street repair
needs. A citizens oversight commit-

tee will be established to guide the
City Council on its decisions for
the remainder of the money and
that will provide some exibility if
needs change.
It might be easy to say that the
city should not go back on its word
on a measure that was initially
envisioned as temporary, or that it
should live within its means and
nd the money needed for essential
repairs elsewhere. City ofcials,
however, looked far and wide at
various ways to fund these needs
and determined a tax that is already
being paid by residents and visitors
to the city when they shop was the
best way forward. We agree. Vote
yes on Measure S.

Millbrae Councilman Wayne
Lee contradicts himself
Dont give teachers

housing, give them raises
Editor,
In the story regarding red light
cameras (in the Aug. 13 edition of
the Daily Journal), Millbrae
Councilman Wayne Lee was quoted as saying, Im more concerned
about safety than someones pocketbook, insinuating that by issuing $500 tickets for not making a
complete stop while turning right
on red he was changing peoples
behaviors and making the city
safer.
In the Sept. 21 edition of the
Daily Journal, Councilman Lee
was quoted as saying, You cannot
social engineer people in regards
to issuing citations for littering
downtown.
Mr. Lee, youre talking from
both sides of your mouth.
Editor,
Buried in the San Mateo Union
High School District board agenda
for Sept. 24 is a staff recommendation to either lease or sell the
land that Peninsula High School
sits on to the city of San Bruno
(New home sought for high
school in the Sept. 19 edition of
the Daily Journal).
There is a suggestion to build
housing for teachers on this site
perhaps such as College Vista of
the San Mateo County Community
College District, something I
absolutely disagree with.
Why are we involving real
estate developers at all here? It
seems to me if the problem is that
teachers cannot afford to live here
that is time to give every
teacher in the SMUHSD a substantial raise.
Teachers, like the rest of us
want to be part of the middle class

Popes visit
The News & Observer
of Raleigh (North Carolina)
hose fortunate enough to

see Pope Francis on his
visit to the United States
will know it is a once-in-a-lifetime experience, one theyll share
with friends and family all their
lives. And that feeling will apply
to non-Catholics as well as members of the church.
For Pope Francis has captured
the worlds attention not just with
his position, but with a message
that embraces all people with love
and forgiveness and understanding that goes beyond doctrine.
Indeed, long-time church
observers thought from the
moment he appeared as pope and
asked people for their prayers that
his might well be a transformative
period in the churchs history.
Francis certainly is not a revolutionary, in that he adheres to
and advocates many of the
churchs traditional beliefs. But
he has cleared the way for the
church and its leaders to be more
forgiving and more understanding.
He has given priests the right to
absolve the Catholic sin of abortion. He has acted to make annulment easier.
And he has repeatedly emphasized the need for all to help the
poor and disadvantaged. He has
preached for humility, for tolerance of those who are different.
And of late, he has spoken of
the threat of climate change and
the need to better care for the
environment and tied that together
with the needs of the less fortunate. A gifted writer, the pope
wrote in his encyclical policy on
social justice and the environment, "It must integrate questions
of justice in debates on the environment, so as to hear both the
cry of the earth and the cry of the
poor."
The pope conveys his view of
the churchs obligation to involve
itself in social issues with his own
itinerary in the United States.
Yes, there will be parades and
masses. But he will be visiting a
school, a charity and a prison.
And as he always does, this pope
will greet his crowds with kisses
and handshakes. He seems particularly touched by children,
embracing them when possible,
blessing them, kissing them. He
makes a special effort with those
children who are sick or handicapped.
The popes humanity is what
has caused him to be admired and
even adored by non-Catholics. He
is a person without pretense, who
chooses to live in humble rooms
at the Vatican and not the more
well-appointed apartment of his
predecessors. By example, he is a
leader of all, and though hell
address Congress and the United
Nations, hell likely admonish
them to serve all the peoples of
the world. And they will sit up
straight when he does.
Pope Francis has attained
extraordinary attention since
assuming the papacy. Yes, thats
true of all new popes. But in this
case, the attention comes as much
because of his ideas and his forceful way of expressing them.

NEW YORK More evidence that

global economic growth is slowing
pushed the U.S. stock market down for a
third straight day on Thursday.
The market fell sharply at the open,
pushing stocks close to their lowest levels of the month, before rebounding during afternoon trading to close with only
slight losses.
Caterpillar, a bellwether for industrial
companies, fell sharply after cutting its
sales outlook for this year and announcing that it would eliminate as many as
10,000 jobs to cut costs.
Also, the government reported that
orders for long-lasting U.S. manufactured goods dropped in August. A key
category that tracks business investment
plans was especially weak.
Were looking for that good news and
were not getting any, said John
Toohey, vice president of equity investments at USAA.
The Standard & Poors 500 index fell
6.52 points, or 0.3 percent, to 1,932.24.
The Dow Jones industrial average lost
78.57 points, or 0.5 percent, to
16,201.32. The Nasdaq composite fell
18.27 points, or 0.4 percent, to 4,734.48.
The market has been in a funk for the
past month as investors worry that slow-
ing growth overseas, particularly in

China, will hurt U.S. companies. A decision by the Federal Reserve to hold its
benchmark interest rate close to zero last
week also made investors uneasy.
Policymakers held the Feds benchmark interest rate despite an improving
job market and a steady economy. Fed
Chair Janet Yellen told reporters after
the meeting that worries about China
and emerging markets were a factor in
their decision. Many economists expected that the central bank would instead
focus on the health of the U.S. economy.
Yellen said in a speech late Thursday
that she expects the Fed to begin raising
interest rates by the end of the year. She
also suggested that global economic
weakness will not be significant enough
to alter the central banks plan to raise its
key short-term rate from zero by
December. Her remarks came after the
market had closed.
On Thursday, Caterpillar was the
biggest decliner in the S&P 500.
The company slumped after cutting its
2015 revenue forecast by $1 billion to
about $48 billion. Caterpillar also said
sales would fall another 5 percent next
year. The company said it may eliminate
as many as 10,000 jobs between now
and 2018. The maker of mining and construction equipment is suffering as a
global slump in commodity prices hurts
mining companies. The stock dropped
$4.40, or 6.3 percent, to $65.80.

European
markets
also
fell.
Germanys DAX dropped 1.9 percent,
Britains FTSE 100 declined 1.2 percent
and Frances CAC 40 lost 1.9 percent.
Automakers in Europe are still suffering in the wake of Volkswagens emissions scandal. While VWs stock closed
flat on the day, fellow German carmaker
BMW fell 5.2 percent after a report said
one of its models had failed a test in
Europe. Fiat Chrysler fell 7.5 percent.
There was some strong earnings news
from Nike after the close of trading.
The sportswear company reported
earnings that surpassed analysts expectations as sales grew. Its stock climbed
$8.61, or 7.5 percent, to $123.35 in afterhours trading.
In commodities trading, benchmark
U.S. crude rose 43 cents to $44.91 a barrel on the New York Mercantile
Exchange. Brent crude, a benchmark for
many international oils imported by U.S.
refineries, rose 42 cents to $48.17 a barrel.
Bond prices rose, pushing the yield on
the 10-year Treasury note down to 2.12
percent from 2.15 percent a day earlier.
The dollar slipped to 120.06 yen. The
euro ticked higher to $1.1221.
The price of gold rose $22.30 to
$1,153.80 an ounce. Silver climbed 34
cents to $15.13 an ounce and copper
rose 0.7 cents to $2.30 a pound.
Yellen says she expects Fed to raise rates by years end

By Martin Crutsinger
WASHINGTON Chair Janet Yellen said

Thursday that she expects the Federal
Reserve to begin raising interest rates from
record lows by the end of the year.
In a lecture at the University of
Massachusetts at Amherst, Yellen said she
thought inflation would gradually move up
to the Feds target rate of 2 percent as unusually low oil prices and other factors prove
temporary. And she suggested that global
economic weakness wont likely be significant enough to dissuade the Fed from raising
its key short-term rate from zero by
December.
Yellens comments may help clarify doubts
about the Feds intentions that deepened last
week after its latest policy meeting ended.
The Fed chose not to raise

rates, citing global economic pressures and concern about excessively
low inflation.
That decision raised
worries that the Fed had
greater concerns about
economic problems in
Janet Yellen China and falling stock
markets than investors
had previously thought.
In her speech Thursday, Yellen said Fed
officials continue to monitor economic troubles abroad. But she said officials dont think
those challenges will significantly influence
the central banks interest-rate decisions.
At a news conference last week, Yellen had
avoided saying whether she herself still
thought a rate hike would be justified this
year. She said she preferred to convey the
collective view of the Feds policymaking

committee, which establishes the central
banks rate decisions. But on Thursday,
Yellen included herself, saying, Most of my
colleagues and I anticipate that it will likely
be appropriate to raise the target range for the
federal funds rate sometime later this year.
As she has before, Yellen stressed that
when the Fed does begin raising rates, it
expects the increases to be extremely gradual. The central bank has left its benchmark
rate at a record low since 2008. It last raised
rates in 2006.
She also emphasized that the Fed has made
no final decision about a rate hike. The decision still depends on further progress toward
the Feds dual mandates: Maximizing
employment and maintaining price stability,
which the Fed defines as inflation rising at a
modest annual pace of 2 percent.

Oculus takes aim at mainstream

with inexpensive gear, video
LOS ANGELES Virtual reality is
taking a few steps closer to the mainstream with Samsung unveiling a headset
that brings the technology to its latest
smartphones at half the price of its previous model, Facebook launching support
for 360-degree video, and online video
services like Netflix and Hulu jumping
into the format.
The announcements at a developers
conference in Los Angeles for virtual
reality technology company Oculus represent attempts to push the platform
beyond a video-gamer-focused niche.
Facebook Inc. CEO Mark Zuckerberg,
who cut a deal to buy Oculus for $2 billion last year, told some 1,500 conference attendees Thursday that virtual reality is the next logical step in online
sharing after text, photos and video.
In just a few years, VR has gone from
being this science fiction dream to an
awesome reality, he said. And now we
all here have a chance to change the way
we play, communicate and collaborate.
Zuckerberg showed off a promo for the
upcoming Star Wars movie showing a
speeding vehicle zooming over the desert
landscape of fictional planet Jakku.
Users can look around in any direction
using their mouse as the video is playing.
Samsung said its new virtual reality
headset will be 22 percent lighter and
reached a seven-year low of 5.1 percent,

essentially achieving the Feds job goal. But
inflation has been running below the Feds
target for more than three years and recently
has fallen even farther from the 2 percent
goal. Ultra-low inflation has resulted in part
from a plunge in energy prices over the past
year and a higher-valued dollar, which has
made imports cheaper.
Yellen said Fed officials still think the
depressive effects of the dollar and energy
prices will fade, allowing inflation to return
to the 2 percent level. She noted that the Fed
expects low unemployment to eventually
accelerate wage gains.
Yellens comments came in a 23-page
speech that was accompanied by numerous
charts, economic formulas and footnotes,
which provided an extensive review of the
Feds views on factors that influence inflation.

Tigers outlast Gators in clash

of volleyball powerhouses
By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
With two of San Mateo Countys best volleyball players going head-to-head, the clash
between Notre Dame-Belmont and Sacred
Heart Prep turned out to be not merely a display of superstars. It was an exhibition of
depth of two high-caliber teams that figure to
potentially collide again on the Central
Coast Section Division IV playoff stage.
It isnt that Notre Dame-Belmont junior
Katie Smoot wasnt a spectacle as the Tigers
(11-5) won in straight sets 25-18, 25-17, 2523 in non-league action Tuesday at Sacred
Heart Prep (11-5). The outside hitter, who
made her 2015 debut just last week after returning from an ankle injury, continued to make
up for lost time, firing a match-high 17 kills.
And as advertised, Gators sophomore Cate
Desler also showcased some elite play with a
team-high 12 kills.
With a SHP front-row blocking attack that
is going to give teams in the West Bay
Athletic League fits this season, it was the
Tigers terrific back-row play that won the
day. Smoot and fellow junior outside hitter
Tammy Byrne known more for their ferocious kill velocity up front teamed with
senior libero Katarina Warburton and sophomore defensive specialist Kat Ho to count-
er a surging Gators team

in Game 3 and ultimately
ensure the sweep.
Theyre great players
and in high-pressure
games they always step up
and do a good job, Notre

Division IV title last seaWarburton

out to do it again.
Its just another step on our journey,
Warburton said. We want to do something
special again. We want to make it to state
again and go even further. All these games
count towards that. Were not taking anything for granted.
Leading by two games, Notre Dame could
have easily backed off in Game 3 as SHP
mounted a comeback. After a back-and-forth
battle in the early going, the Gators took a
17-12 lead behind a stellar early scoring spree
by Desler, who totaled five kills in the set.

A wonderful life: Berras

family, Yanks honor Yogi
By Ben Walker
NEW YORK Bill Spahr tapped the

bronze Yogi Berra plaque in Monument Park
with his hand, nodded his head in tribute and
recalled the day he once talked to the
Yankees great for 15 minutes at an airport.
It was easily the greatest experience Ive
ever had, Spahr said.
From the makeshift memorial outside the
main gate at Yankee Stadium to the extended
moment of silence before New York hosted
the Chicago White Sox, it was a time to
remember the beloved Berra with smiles and
tears Thursday night.
We all looked up to Yogi, Yankees manager Joe Girardi said. The champion he
was. A ring for every finger. I think wed all
like to have that.
White Sox manager Robin Ventura echoed
the sentiment, treasuring the days when he

played for the Yankees and Berra would wander into the clubhouse.
When he came in, there wasnt a guy who
didnt want to talk to him, Ventura said.
Berra died Tuesday at 90. In 2009, the Hall
of Famer threw out the ceremonial first ball
before the first regular-season game at the
new Yankee Stadium.
This pregame ceremony lasted 10 minutes, fitting for someone who played on a
record 10 World Series champions.
As both teams lined up outside their
dugouts, Girardi put a wreath of blue and
white flowers in the shape of Berras No. 8
in the catchers box. A Navy bugler played

Stanford big

CORVALLIS, Ore. Even if Stanford

doesnt have Kevin Hogan, Oregon State
still faces a considerable challenge in the
No. 21 Cardinal on Friday night.
Hogan injured his left ankle in Stanfords
upset victory over USC last weekend and hes
likely a game-time decision against the Beavers.
He shouldnt be counted
out. Hurt in the second half
against the Trojans, he gritted out the win. The senior
quarterback completed 18
of 23 passes for 279 yards
and a pair of touchdowns,
Kevin Hogan earning Pac-12 offensive
player of the week honors.
Oregon State coach Gary Andersen
admired Hogans toughness in the victory,
adding that he fully expects him to play on
Friday night.
Hes a well-rounded, experienced guy
with some very talented kids around him.
Hes in tremendous command of that
offense, also, Andersen said. Theres not a
lot of things he hasnt seen and theres not a
lot of offense thats gonna be called where
hes not going to be very comfortable,
obviously, producing.
Hogan is now tied for fourth in school
history at 53 career touchdown passes, joining some illustrious company. Andrew Luck
is the Cardinal all-time leader with 82,
breaking John Elways mark of 77.
The Beavers, in the first season under
Andersen, have freshman Seth Collins at
quarterback.
Collins threw for 135 yards and a score in
Oregon States 35-21 victory over San Jose
State last weekend. But he did the most damage with his feet, running for 114 yards and
two touchdowns. Collins is the sixthranked rusher in the Pac-12 with an average
of 98 yards a game.

Roberts makes mark with game-winning TD
We still holler at each other right now,

Roberts said. He hit me up after the game.
He said its a blessing to see us doing our
thing.
Roberts signed with the Raiders as an
undrafted free agent last year and did enough
to earn a spot on the practice squad, where
he was able to learn the NFL game and add
needed strength.
Talk about a guy that the first day we
threw routes on there, it didnt look too
pretty, Carr said. Back in rookie minicamp days and just to watch him work,
watch him get better at his craft, to make the
team after being on practice squad and to

make the game-winning catch and he
deserves all the credit.
Roberts put together a strong preseason
with 15 catches for 243 yards and a touchdown to make the 53-man roster this year as
part of a deeper receiving group that made
high-profile additions with Michael
Crabtree and Amari Cooper.
He improved enough over the past year to
beat out several receivers with NFL experience.
We felt like the guys that were returning
would have a chance to develop and we just
wanted them to compete and compete on
special teams, compete for roles on
offense, coach Jack Del Rio said. Seth has
just taken that opportunity and run with it.
Roberts had a shaky debut performance
when he caught three passes for 12 yards
and dropped two others in a loss to
Cincinnati. But the Raiders traded a former
drafted receiver, Brice Butler, to Dallas during the week and kept Roberts active last
Sunday ahead of Rod Streater, who led the
team in receiving in 2013.
Roberts played 49 snaps in his second
game. For the first 48, he was an afterthought as either a blocker on a run play or
decoy in the passing game.
But with the game on the line, Carr went
to Roberts for the winning score on a slant
over the middle.
I kept my head in the game and stayed
focused, he said. I read the coverage and I
slipped inside, found a crease and got
open.
The Raiders hope that will be the first of
many such plays.
question on the board, too, and the answer,

no surprise, was Berra.
Out in Monument Park, flowers honored
Berra. His plaque notes his three AL MVP
awards and famous It Aint Over Til Its
Over saying and praises him as a legendary Yankee.
Fans posed for pictures with the plaque
and told stories about Berra. Spahr, 58 and a
lifelong Yankees fan, still plays softball
with Berras son, Larry.
Yogi was the best, Spahr said.
Flowers arranged in the figure of an 8 were
outside the stadium in a fan memorial, along
with candles, drawings and a picture of Berra
with Derek Jeter. A young girl asked her dad
what made Berra so special.

He had some of the most famous quotes
in the world, he told his daughter, and he
won 10 championships.
Earlier in the day, at a news conference at
the Yogi Berra Museum and Learning Center
on the campus of Montclair State
University in Little Falls, New Jersey, sons
Dale, Tim and Larry and granddaughter
Lindsay spoke about him.
He was such a normal, regular guy to the
people he met, Dale Berra said. I think
because he grew up with immigrant parents
during the Depression and had to go to work
when he was in eighth grade, I think that
made him humble.

ALAMEDA When Seth Roberts

watched his old college teammate from
Division II West Alabama make the play
that decided the Super Bowl earlier this year,
it gave him the confidence that maybe he
too could succeed in the NFL despite his
small-school pedigree.
Two games into his NFL career, Roberts
has a game-winning play of his own to
match Malcolm Butlers interception in the
Super Bowl for New England even if it did
come on a much smaller stage.
Roberts caught the go-ahead touchdown
pass from Derek Carr with 26 seconds
remaining last Sunday to give the Oakland
Raiders their first win of the season, 37-33
over the Baltimore Ravens.
That one play turned Roberts from a mostly anonymous former practice squader into
an NFL contributor.
I heard from a lot of people, he said. I
had to turn my phone off. I just want to be
the old Seth and just chill.
Roberts has come a long way from the
player who had no scholarship offers out of
high school then spent two years in junior
college in Mississippi at Pearl River
Community College and then played two
more years at West Alabama.
He had 62 catches for 1,169 yards and 13
touchdowns in two years for a runningbased team but also had the opportunity to
go up against Butler each day in practice.

he held his own against Butler the next and

Carlmont (1-2) at Menlo School (3-0), 3:15 p.m.
The Scots got off the schneid last week,
beating Yerba Buena 20-0. The Knights
knocked out Soquel, 42-16. Carlmonts
offense has gotten better week by week.
After getting shutout in its opener, it scored
18 in a loss to Woodside in Week 2 before
last weeks breakthrough. After scoring
28 points in each of its first two games,
Menlo broke out offensively last week by
nearly doubling its previous output. The
Knights rolled up 545 yards of offense last
week. The Menlo defense is also doing a
good job, having kept its last two opponents under the 20-point mark.

Woodside (3-0) at Fremont-Sunnyvale (21), 7 p.m.
The Wildcats survived a wild 33-32 overtime win over city rival Sequoia last week.
The Firebirds were fried 60-28 by Pacific
Grove. Sequoia became the first team to
crack the 20-point barrier against Woodside
this season. The Wildcats offense was
held to under 300 yards last week, with
Marcelous Chester-Riley accounting for a
majority of those. He finished with 161
yards rushing on just 13 carries.
Woodside hasnt been 3-0 since its CCS
championship year in 2004, when the
Wildcats were a perfect 13-0. Fremont
went 9-2 overall last season, capturing the
Santa Clara Valley Athletic Leagues El
Camino Division title the equivalent of
winning the PALs Ocean Division.
Despite getting beat by more than 30
points, Fremont still managed more than
300 yards of offense last week. The
Firebirds had allowed a total of 26 points in
their first two games combined.
Terra Nova (1-2) at Homestead (2-1), 7 p.m.

grammar, elementary and junior high schools

Its a really interesting dynamic between
Aragon and San Mateo, Scheller said. I
asked this week, How many of you know
someone on the Aragon football team? One
hundred percent (of the San Mateo players)
raised their hand.
From the (San Mateo) kids standpoint,
[Aragon] is probably a bigger rivalry than
Burlingame because its a neighborhood
rivalry.
The Aragon-San Mateo matchup is similar
to the Battle of the Fleas in another regard:
Aragon domination. Before the Dons lost to
the Hillsdale at the end of the 2014 regular
season, Aragon hadnt lost to the Knights
since 1991. Aragons streak against San
Mateo isnt nearly as long the Bearcats
last won in 2010, 27-15 but the dominance dates back more than a few years.
Aragon and San Mateo have met 16 times
since 1996 Aragon has won 15 of them.
But Sell is under no illusions his team will
automatically add to that domination this
season.
You never know what youre going to
get, Sell said. The PAL, on balance, has a
lot of good teams. The gap between the Bay
and Lake is so small now.

The Cherokees came up short against
Woodside in overtime last week, 33-32.
The Irish are coming off a 20-0 win over St.
Thomas More. This game represents
Sequoias annual intra- or inter-state contest. Since coach Rob Poulos second season with the Cherokees, hes taken the program to games in South California, Utah,
Oregon and Idaho. The Cherokees trailed
26-0 at halftime last week, but rallied to
force overtime. Sequoia had two players

Critics will say a Bay Division team
(Aragon) should not be playing a Lake
Division (San Mateo) team because of the
supposed superiority the Bay has over Lake
division teams. But when it comes to a rivalry game, logic goes out the window.
Its definitely a fair fight. We dont even
talk about what [division] theyre in. Its kind
of irrelevant. Its Aragon-San Mateo game,
which means its one of the most important
games of the year, Sell said.
Last season, Aragon took a 14-0 lead, but
San Mateo was poised to cut the lead in half
when, at the Dons 1-yard line, the Bearcats
committed a personal foul, moving them
back 15 yards. Not only did San Mateo come
up empty, Aragon scored on the ensuing possession for a 21-0 lead.
San Mateo rallied to tie the game at 21 in
the third quarter before Aragon ultimately
pulled out a 35-27 victory.
Scheller said, however, that he hasnt
dwelled on that result this season.
I think last year is last year, Scheller
said. I think our guys believe that if we execute, we can beat anybody. They know anything can happen.
San Mateo spent the first half of last weeks
27-14 loss to Mountain View not executing.
The Bearcats managed only 36 yards of
offense as they fell behind 20-0 at halftime.
San Mateo turned things around in the second
half, using long, methodical drives to score a
pair of touchdown to close to 20-14, but
could not finish the comeback.
If last week showed anything, its that San
Mateo is not dependent on the big play to get
combined 19 points against three very

tough teams. The nine points last week
was a season high for the Bears. If
nothing else, the Bears have been balanced offensively this season. They are
averaging 76. 7 yards passing per game
and 73. 7 yards rushing.
Lowell (0-2) at Jefferson (2-1), 7 p.m.

The Cardinals were clipped by TennysonHayward last week, 48-0. The Grizzlies
succumbed to Monta Vista-Cupertino 3534. Jefferson rolled to a 43-23 win over
Lowell last season. Lowell is struggling
to start the season, having been outscored
96-6 in two games. Jefferson could easily be 3-0, if not for a failed two-point conversion in the final minute of last weeks
loss. David Benjamin Jr. had a big game
for the Grizzlies last week. He rushed for
121 yards and a TD on 12 carries. He also
threw a 20-yard touchdown pass.
Jefferson racked up 417 yards of offense last
week 217 passing, 200 rushing.
109. Each scored two touchdowns.
Vancouver College was 5-2 in 2014. In a

back into games. The Bearcats simply dont

have the personnel to consistently hit a
home run.
Its got to be more of a coach-driven
thing, Scheller said. But thats who we are.
Were grinding it out because thats who
we are.
The Bearcats certainly have the horses to
grind out yards on the ground. Josh Fakava is
an elite running back when healthy. He
suffered a leg contusion early in the game
against Mountain View and was limited to
just seven carries.
Luckily for San Mateo, Anderson Perdomo
was there to pick up the slack, rushing for a
team high 68 yards on 17 carries.
I think we can get to a point where we can
be effective against them, Scheller said.
But keeping the ball out of the (Aragon)
offenses hands is going to be our best
defense.
Because the Dons have proven so far this
year that its not a problem for them to find
the end zone when they do have the ball.
Through three games, Aragon is averaging 43
points and are coming off a 42-14 win over
Lincoln-SJ.
And it may surprise you the way they are
going about it. While Aragon still employs a
featured back in VA Wilson, Sell is much more
apt to throw the ball this season.
We throw the ball for more yards than we
run the ball. Thats got to be an all-time first.
And I truly dont see that changing, Sell
said. Its an athletic team. If you took our
skill guys, theyd be a formidable 4x100
relay team.
Sell attributes the rise of senior quarterback

Tanner Nguyen for his change in strategy.
Nguyen transferred from Texas before the
start of last season and despite seeing flashes
of what Nguyen could do, determined he wasnt quite ready for the rigors of the varsity
game, so he backed up Billy Mason last season.
This season, Sell said Nguyen has grown
into his body.
When he first got to us, he had a good arm,
but he wasnt physically strong enough. In
the last year, he lifted all year, played basketball. You could see him getting stronger,
Sell said. He threw a pretty ball last year.
Now he throws an impressive ball.
With burners on the outside in Devin Grant
and Davion Cox, Nguyen certain has the
weapons around him to be successful.
The key to success in this game, however,
is the same for success in any game: control
the ball, dont turn it over and consistently
execute on each play.
As long as we are capable of doing the
things we know we can do, we should be in
the game, Scheller said.
Sell echoed similar sentiments: The way
weve been playing, if we dont hurt ourselves, we can move the football. Weve only
stopped ourselves in the first three weeks by
making silly mistakes. If youre only
playing against one team, you have a pretty
good chance of winning. I dont care who
anyone is playing, if you dont beat yourself,
you can be in every game.
Even one with as much emotion as this
game.

Coach accused of ordering referee hit resigns

By Paul J. Weber
ROUND ROCK, Texas A Texas high

school football coach accused of ordering
players to knock down a referee who allegedly hurled racial insults at the team has
resigned, and state officials warned Thursday
that punishments to others may be coming.
Former bosses for Mack Breed, who was an
assistant coach at John Jay High in San
Antonio, told a governing board they
believe he ordered at least one player to retaliate against referee Robert Watts during the
waning moments of a game on Sept. 4.
Video from the game shows two players
lining up behind Watts, who was the umpire,
and then blindsiding him from behind after
the snap.
Breed did not attend the hearing near
Austin of the University Interscholastic
League, which oversees high school sports
in Texas. His attorney released a lengthy
statement that does not admit to telling the
players to strike Watts but acknowledges
that Breed made some regrettable comments, without listing them.
His attorney said witnesses have offered

conflicting stories about what Breed said and
that the account from one of the players who
hit the referee has changed over time.
In hindsight, Mack feels he could have
handled the situation better, attorney James
Reeves said. Mack never intended for the
kids to hit or hurt the referee, but the result
was the same. While Mack is moving forward, others have yet to accept responsibility for their roles.
Watts did not attend the hearing but submitted a five-page written account of the
game through his attorney, who also gave
the board two family photos. One shows
Watts at his wedding with his best man, who
is black, and another is of Watts grandmother, who is from Mexico.
Attorney Jay Downs denied again to the
board Thursday that Watts used racial slurs.
He said one of the false accusations being
floated is that Watts said speak English,
this is America while John Jay players were
talking to each other.
With Breed not in attendance, Gutierrez
took most of the heat from the board, which
could bring down hard sanctions against the
coach and school. But partly because Breed,

Watts and the players all did not attended the
hearing, the board abstained from taking
action and tentatively scheduled another
meeting for October.
The board publicly warned Gutierrez, however, that he could be disciplined with probation and questioned the culture in his program.
This is a big, big incident, and you own it
as the head coach, board member Gil Garza.
Watts said he has post-concussion syndrome and anxiety disorder. One John Jay
player told him after the hit, Youre in the
way and laughed, according to his written
statement.
Earlier in the game, Watts said, another
John Jay player had smirked at him after
pushing him for no apparent reason. That
player was later ejected, before Watts was hit.
Watts said he wound up with turf burn on
his forehead, a cut next to his eye and a large
red bruise on his arm.
The two suspended students, Michael
Moreno and Victor Rojas, appeared
Wednesday at separate disciplinary hearings,
which were closed to the public.

NFL brief
NFL gets consent for use of drones
NEW YORK The NFLs sky-high popularity will now include drones.
The league has received permission from
the Federal Aviation Administration for limited use of drones.
NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy said in an
email to The Associated Press that the drones
will not be used on the day of games; the
league prohibits the use of drones on game
day in stadiums and in parking lots.
McCarthy said NFL Films will be allowed
to use drones and teams may film their own
practices if they comply with local, state and
federal guidelines.
NFL Films will use the unique visual images
captured by drones to enhance their filmmaking and storytelling, McCarthy said.
Drone crashes two days apart, at the U.S.
Open in New York and before a Kentucky
football game, made news earlier this month.
But over the past two years, more than 50

middle Jess Beering and an ace by
junior opposite Mele Fakatene
made it 17-15 before back-toback Smoot kills tied it 19-19. The
match hung in the balance with the
game still deadlocked at 23-23, but
thats when the three amigas of
Smoot, Byrne and Warburton made
some magic in the back row.
To break the tie, Warburton produced a skillful dig off a crisp SHP
attempt. Her quick lateral lurch didnt allow her to steer the ball, but
Byrne tracked it down to bump a
back-row set into position. Smoot
capitalized from deep in the defensive zone, buzzing a long shot to
the Gators back row that had so
much velocity behind it, even the
far-traveled shot was too much to
handle for the SHP defender, giving
the Tigers game point at 24-23.

tough to prepare for. He does so

Some other things to know
when the Cardinal (2-1) visit the
Beavers (2-1) at Reser Stadium:
Hi s to ry : Stanford leads the alltime series 53-25-3 and has won the
last five straight and six of the last
seven. On a side note, Hogan made
his first-ever start for Stanford
against the Beavers in 2012, passing for 254 yards and three touchdowns in a 27-23 comeback win.
The backups : Waiting in the
wings at quarterback for Stanford are
Ryan Burns and Keller Chryst, the
son of San Francisco 49ers offensive
coordinator Geep Chryst. Burns
appeared in two games last year and
completed his only pass attempt,
while Chryst played in one game and
completed a pass for 20 yards.
THE DAILY JOURNAL
The Gators sixth unforced error of

the set ended it on the next rally.
They committed 23 errors on the
evening to Notre Dames 15. Nearly
half the Tigers errors came in the
early going of the first set, but they
were able to make adjustments with
their passing in a hurry.
Game 1 was a tight back-and-forth
battle as well until Notre Dame
broke a 16-16 tie. Desler looked to
give the advantage to the Gators
with a crosscourt shot, but Smoot
had the wherewithal to let it go; the
attempt hit just beyond the sideline
to give the Tigers the point. Byrne
ultimately ended the set with her
first of seven match kills.
Game 2 was also deadlocked early,
until Fakatene stepped to the service
line for Notre Dame and reeled off
five straight points, including an
ace to give the Tigers the lead for
good at 7-6. Notre Dame led by as
much as 21-11, when Smoot fired
one of her two match kills.
In Game 3, SHP refused to back
down. Desler had produced a block
early in the second set that, at the
time, created a spark of energy for the

Gators. In the final set, though, they
showed their defensive depth up front
even with setter Lilika Teu rotating
through the front row. Teu and middle
blocker Natalie Zimits paired up for
several key denials with Smoot firing from the left side. Zimits totaled
two blocks in the set and Teu had one,
giving the Gators the early lead.
Any time you stuff a block, especially against a profound hitter, its
going to inspire a lot of momentum,
SHP head coach Ali Magner said.
One of SHPs offensive sparkplugs
in Game 3 was senior middle Maata
Makoni, who totaled three kills in
the set. Makoni is a three-sport athlete who also plays basketball and
runs track. Notre Dames Beering is a
mirror image of Makoni, as Beering
is also a three-sport standout, only
playing volleyball during high
school volleyball season.
Beering finished with six kills
and a block. For SHP, senior libero
Jorden Schreeder had a team-high 10
digs. Teu totaled 25 assists.

A loving resurrection of
the Twin Towers in Walk
By Jake Coyle
NEW YORK In the months and years

after Sept. 11, the World Trade Center was
swept out of the movies. The Towers were
removed from such films as Zoolander and
Serendipity that were shot before the
tragedy. Since then, the skyline where the
Towers once formed the H in the poster for
Woody Allens Manhattan has seldom been
more than glimpsed on the big screen.
But when Robert Zemeckis The Walk
opens the 53rd New York Film Festival on
Saturday, New York will see the Twin Towers
cinematically resurrected unlike theyve been

before. The film, which opens in theaters Oct.
2, is about high-wire artist Phillippe Petits
(Joseph Gordon-Levitt) cabled walk between
the Towers in 1974.
Petit considered his stunt a love letter to the
World Trade Center, which was then just
being finished. And though The Walk never
directly references Sept. 11, the film derives
significant poignancy from the very large
presence of Petits monolithic co-stars.
We should never forget. And when we
remember, its very important that we remember the tragedy, Zemeckis, the Back to the
Feature and Forrest Gump director, said in
a recent interview. But I think its also

important that we remember beautiful things
that happened during their existence as well.
The Walk captures the World Trade
Center not merely as a background cameo,
but casts them front-and-center in a leading role and in 3-D. To recreate the skyscrapers, Zemeckis, production designer Naomi
Shohan and visual effects supervisor Kevin
Baillie spent months on the digital effects,
models and sets that would double for the
Towers.
Zemeckis had long wanted to make the film
about Petit, whose exploits were memorably
the subject of James Marshs 2009 Oscar-win-
ning documentary Man on Wire.

He always spoke of the Towers as if they
were these living, breathing accomplices of
his, Zemeckis says of the Frenchman. The
idea that he did this kind of spiritual thing
where he united them and put a human face
on them, I thought, was a nice way, a kind of
emotional way, to remember the Towers
through this audacious but very beautiful and
human act.

pre-9/11 Lower Manhattan. But Stones docu-

THE DAILY JOURNAL
Sweeney Todd gets operatic treatment in San Francisco

By Judy Richter
DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT
Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of

Fleet Street is widely regarded as one of
Stephen Sondheims greatest accomplishments.
With his rich score and inventive lyrics,
along with the book by Hugh Wheeler, this is
musical theater with operatic qualities. Its no
surprise to find it at the San Francisco Opera.
The title character, played by baritone Brian
Mulligan, has returned to London in the
1860s, 15 years after being sent to Australia
by a corrupt judge who desired his wife, Lucy.
Upon his return, he learns that Lucy had
taken poison and that their infant daughter has
become the judges ward.
He opens his barber shop above a pie shop
owned by Mrs. Lovett (mezzo-soprano
Stephanie Blythe), and vows to find his
daughter and exact revenge on the judge.
After he kills a man who recognizes him, he
and Mrs. Lovett devise an ingenious way to
dispose of the body. It will go into her meat
pies.
As Sweeney becomes more vengeful, more

victims become pie filling.
In the meantime, his sailing companion,
Anthony (baritone Elliot Madore), sees
Sweeneys daughter, Johanna (soprano Heidi
Stober), at the home of Judge Turpin (bassbaritone Wayne Tigges), and vows to rescue
her.
By the end of the show, which runs about
two hours and 50 minutes with one intermission, most of the principals are dead. The only
survivors are Anthony, Johanna and Tobias
(tenor Matthew Grills), Mrs. Lovetts assistant.
The musical and dramatic elements are
mostly present, but this production doesnt do
them justice. Director Lee Blakeley spreads
the action across the vast stage designed by
Tanya McCallin, losing much of the dramas
immediacy.
Likewise, Blakeley doesnt handle the big
choral scenes well. Conducted by Patrick
Summers, the orchestra does full justice to
Sondheims powerful score.

THIS IS OUR YOUTH: THE
CUSTOM MADE THEATRE
CO. STARTS ITS NEW SEASON, AT ITS NEW THEATER,
WITH A HIT. It seemed like a good
idea at the time. 19-year-old screwup Warren, who has been kicked out
of the family home by his fed-up
father, steals $15,000 of his dads
cash on the way out the door, and
seeks refuge at the apartment of his
drug dealing buddy Dennis. Dennis,
initially reluctant to harbor Warren,
relents as he sees possibilities of
leveraging the cash into a major
drug deal and warms Warren to the
idea by promising him romance in
the person of Jessica, the girl Warren
pines for. And so the action starts.
Playwright Kenneth Lonergans
This is Our Youth follows 48 hours
in the things-are-really-getting-outof-control lives of three very lost

Flavorful, creamy
soup with no dairy
By Sara Moulton
This time of year, with the

weather getting colder, I love to
serve soup for supper. Its an easy
sell at my house, where The
Husband is a soup-aholic. But with
a soup this good, I firmly believe
you can sell anyone on it. The trick
is to amp up the flavor, vary the
texture, and make it substantial.
Here I started by roasting not
boiling the cauliflower.
Roasting eliminates excess water,
brings the natural sugars to the
fore, and concentrates the flavors
(adding some nuttiness in the
process). Next, I make sure not to
obscure the cauliflowers flavor
with too many other ingredients.
Yes, there is onion and garlic, but
they play only supporting roles.
Likewise, the stock, diluted with
water, is designed not to overwhelm. The greens because
theyre not pureed, and not added
until the very end pack a satisfying little punch of their own
without compromising the cauliflower taste.
You may notice that theres no
dairy in this recipe. While its true
that dairy adds luxuriousness to a
soups texture, it also tends to blot
out flavor, particularly delicate
vegetable flavors. Thats why I
almost always leave it out.
Similarly, theres no flour or
cornstarch here. This soup owes its
rich thickness to the pureeing of
some of the cauliflower, onion and
garlic in the company of a lone
Yukon Gold potato (for silkiness).
Id always rather thicken a soup by
pureeing some of its ingredients
than by adding flour or another
starch. Starchy thickeners are distracting.
The right tool for pureeing a
soup is a blender. Neither a food

processor nor an immersion
blender will make it quite as
smooth. Just take care not to pack
the blender with too much hot soup
at a time. Fill it no more than a
third full for each batch, otherwise
you may end up wearing it (and
that can burn!).
At the end of the recipe, to provide some crunchy contrast to the
creamy base, I added roasted cauliflower florets. Finally, there are
those garlicky cheese rye toasts
Yum! which contribute yet more
crunch as well as big flavor,
whether you tear them up and toss
the pieces into the soup or happily
munch them on the side.
The finished product is a tasty,
hearty, healthy and affordable soup
for supper. And if you use vegetable broth, its vegetarian, too.
Either way, its fully capable of
standing on its own, or with just a
small salad.
ROASTED CAULIFLOWER
AND GREENS SOUP WITH
CHEESY RYE TOASTS
Start to finish: 1 hour (35 minutes active)
Servings: 4
1 head cauliflower (about 2 1/2
pounds)
3 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons
extra-virgin olive oil, divided
Kosher salt
1 cup sliced yellow onion
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 medium Yukon Gold potato
(about 3 to 4 ounces), thinly sliced
3 cups low-sodium chicken or
vegetable broth
2 cups water
5 ounces baby greens (such as
kale, spinach, arugula, mustard or a
mix)
1 tablespoon lemon juice
While its true that dairy adds luxuriousness to a soups texture, it also tends to blot out flavor, particularly delicate
vegetable flavors.
Ground black pepper
4 slices rye bread
1 ounce grated Parmesan cheese
Heat the oven to 450 F.
Cut off and discard the tough
bottom of the cauliflower stem.
Separate 3 cups of small cauliflower florets (each about 1/2 inch
in diameter) and set aside. Cut the
rest of the cauliflower into 1-inch
pieces, then mound them on a
rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle with
1 tablespoon of the olive oil and
sprinkle with about 1/2 teaspoon of
salt. Toss well to coat, then spread
in an even layer. Roast on the
ovens middle shelf, stirring once
or twice, until it is golden brown at
the edges, 20 to 25 minutes.
In a large saucepan over medium, heat 1 tablespoon of the
remaining oil. Add the onion and
cook, stirring occasionally, until
softened, about 5 minutes. Add the
garlic and cook, stirring, for 1
minute. Add the potato, the roasted
cauliflower, the broth and water.

Simmer the mixture until the potato is tender, about 15 minutes.
While the soup is simmering, on
the rimmed sheet pan, toss the
reserved florets with 2 teaspoons
of oil and about 1/4 teaspoon of
salt. Roast until they are golden
brown and tender, about 20 minutes.
Transfer the hot soup in small
batches to a blender and blend until
smooth. Return the soup to the
saucepan, stir in the greens and
simmer until they are wilted and
tender, about 5 minutes. Add the
roasted florets and cook for 1
minute. Add the lemon juice, then
season
with salt
and pepp e r .
Adjust the
consistency,
as
desired,
with an additional splash or two of

water.
Brush the rye bread with the
remaining tablespoon of oil and
toast on the ovens middle shelf
until golden, about 5 minutes.
Sprinkle the cheese evenly over the
toasts and return to the oven and
bake for another 2 minutes. Ladle
the soup into serving bowls and
serve each portion with a toast.

SEAFOOD
lic is encouraged to swing over to Half Moon
Bay for the first Fish and Fleet Festival this
Sunday.
The commercial industry at Pillar Point
Harbor will be on display with friendly fishermen seeking to share tales, and food trucks
serving culinary delights made from locallycaught seafood. There will also be live music,
craft beer, childrens activities and professional surfers from Titans of Mavericks.
Nicole David, a marine biologist and vice
president of the Harbor Districts Board of
Commissioners, organized the educational
event to empower consumers. After hearing
presentations from a research scientist with the
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, conservation experts and local fishermen, attendees can ask questions about where their food
originates.
I think we need to do more to bring a better
balance to the disconnect that is there between
the locally caught fish and the imported fish,
David said. Over 90 percent of the seafood,
not just fish but shellfish, that Americans consume is imported. While at the same time,
more than two-thirds of the local catch is
shipped overseas for consumption and processing. The seafood we import is less expensive, but it also comes at a trade-off. Its potentially at a lower quality and farmed, when we
have really healthy sustainably caught seafood
right off our coast.
Pillar Point Harbor is home to dozens of
PLAY
Murky lighting by Rick Fisher sometimes
leaves principals in the dark, and miking by
sound designer Tod Nixon can be inconsistent. Lorena Randis choreography works best
commercial fishermen who brave the seas to

pull in a variety of seafood like crab, salmon,
squid and more, said Lisa Damrosch, executive director of the Half Moon Bay Seafood
Marketing Association.
Commercial fishing is alive and well. Its a
great time to celebrate it and its great to have
the San Mateo County Harbor District that
also wants to celebrate, Damrosch said.
People will be able to chat with the fishermen
and talk about sustainable seafood and learn
about our industry. Learn about where your
food comes from.
Sustainable fisheries
Commercial and sport fishermen in San
Mateo County have been extremely active
over the years in efforts to promote sustainable
fisheries particularly looking out for the
drought-afflicted salmon.
Local commercial fishermen sit on state
boards that oversee the salmon stamp program
a permit regulating how many fish can be
caught to prevent depletion of the fishery.
Sports fishermen also contribute through a netpen program, which trucks and releases hundreds of thousands of juvenile salmon from
upstream hatcheries out to the ocean.
With seasonal opportunities for the public to
buy locally-caught seafood directly from fishermen selling off their boats at Pillar Point
Harbor, David said consumers have an opportunity to promote a more sustainable industry.
The majority of our fish goes to Asia for
processing and often, it comes back frozen or
canned. So that comes at a huge carbon footprint, David said adding she hopes Saturdays
seminar will encourage attendees to ask more
questions. And to make sure they know they
in Poor Thing, when Mrs. Lovett tells what
happened to Lucy.
Vocally, the production is generally fine,
especially with Mulligans menacing
Sweeney and Blythes clever Mrs. Lovett.

A Little Priest, when they evaluate the culinary possibilities of various professions.

have a choice every time they go to the market

or the store or a restaurant. They could ask for
locally and sustainably caught fish. Because
its the consumer that drives change in the
market.
Oftentimes, fish that comes from overseas or
raised in overly dense farms are subject to
increased risk of viruses or is treated with
antibiotics, David said. Just like farmers markets and labeling products organic, David said
shed like to promote a more conscientious
mindset for seafood consumers.
A lot of people dont mind paying a little
bit more for organic produce just knowing that
it doesnt come with chemicals and its good
for the environment. I think we can also make
that same step with seafood, David said.
Eventually, David said shed like to see
some type of labeling system that could indicate when fish is locally caught and help consumers make wise choices.
Fish and Fleet Festival

Sundays event will serve as a great opportunity for consumers to learn how to prepare
fish, pick up a few recipes and discuss sustainable efforts currently employed by local fishermen, David and Damrosch said.
The Fish and Fleet Festival will provide a
fun environment to meet the passionate individuals driving the local industry, said Harbor
District Commissioner Sabrina Brennan.
These fishermen are small businesses,
theyre fishing sustainably when you compare
it to some of the larger vessels out at sea catching a lot of fish and just boxing it up, Brennan
said. Here, its very small scale and when
youre buying fish at Pillar Point Harbor,
youre supporting small businesses and help-

ing the local economy.

Damrosch said the Seafood Marketing
Association, which is hosting the event, is
excited to present the fishermen who will be
clad in orange shirts and full of tales.
Its a great opportunity for us as an industry
to interact with our community, Damrosch
said. Its good for people to recognize fish
doesnt come in a package. Someone went out
and got that and worked hard and in some
cases, risked their lives to do it. That connection has been the goal, the connection between
these guys that have worked so hard and the
people that enjoy what they do.

The best singing comes from Grills with

Other major roles are filled by soprano

Although this production doesnt measure
up to most of the others seen locally since the

original touring production with Angela

CSI ends its 15-season

run with reunion finale
By Frazier Moore
NEW YORK There was scant evidence suggesting it would be a hit.

CSI: Crime Scene Investigation
was a last-minute pickup by CBS,
plugged into a Friday lineup whose
widely forecast surefire hit would be a
reboot of The Fugitive, not a quirky
little drama dwelling on hair fibers and
blood spatter.
I thought it was never going to succeed, says Jorja Fox. At the time she
had a recurring role on The West
Wing as a Secret Service agent, but I
thought, How fun would it be just to
take this ride for a little while! By
Christmas, I figured I would be back on
The West Wing.
I figured there would be an audience
for it, says William Petersen
PET
company, she said.
Irene Motoviloff, who is leading the
effort to design the Franklin Elementary
School float, said her family is excited to
participate for the first time since moving to Burlingame.
Franklin Elementary School is hosting
an annual fundraiser the same day as the
Pet Parade, so the float will be inspired
by the medieval theme of the schools
carnival, said Motoviloff.
Motoviloff said her son will walk in
the parade with the familys dog Elvis, a
Great Dane dressed in a costume as the
king, and their neighbors dog will be
the partner as a princess.
ARREST
Evans allegedly demanded prescription drugs from another employee who
complied and gave him Dilaudid an
opioid, Decker said.
Evans also stole a box of syringes,
which was in his possession when he
was found Wednesday, Decker said.
Although officers didnt immediately
find the Dilaudid on Evans, there was
evidence of drugs in the used syringes,
Decker said.
Evans appears to have only been in
California a few weeks and may be a
among those people who do crossword

puzzles. I never thought the audience
would also be everyone whos NEVER
done a crossword puzzle!
Though set in Las Vegas, CSI occupies the world of forensic investigators
who solve criminal cases not in the
streets or an interrogation room, but in
the lab, where the truth reveals itself in
the evidence they probe.
Premiering in October 2000, CSI
was an out-of-nowhere smash. (The
Fugitive flopped.) But that was just for
starters. It would spawn two long-running spin-offs, set in Miami and New
York, and recently gave birth to a third,
CSI: Cyber, which now will survive it
as the 15-season run of the original
CSI comes to an end Sunday at 9 p.m.
EDT.
The two-hour farewell brings back
bygone
stars
including
Marg
Helgenberger (who played exoticdancer-turned-investigator Catherine

Willows until departing three seasons
ago) and Petersen (who headlined for
eight-plus seasons as lab boss Gil
Grissom).
Petersen recalled that in 2000 he was
looking for a TV series, but I didnt
want to play a lawyer, a cop or a
divorced dad. CSI was something different, and while we didnt know what it
was going to be, we wanted a chance to
figure it out.
He got his chance and loved the experience, he says, then moved on in 2008
to pursue theater work. (Now he is joining another series, WGN Americas
Manhattan, for its second season
starting Oct. 13.)
Being back on the CSI set for the
finale was like no time had passed, he
says. It felt like yesterday.
She said her family might even bring

their two guinea pigs, Angel and Lou
Seal, to the event as well.
Initially, Motoviloff said she feared
that she would be solely responsible for
putting together the schools float, but
found recently students and her children
have been motivated to get involved.
I thought I was going to have to do it
all, she said. But they have helped out
a lot, so that is nice.
As a transplant to the city, Motoviloff
said she is excited to participate in an
event which brings the Burlingame community together.
Ive never heard of this in any other
city, she said. Its great.
Nagel said she is proud of the
growth of the event, from its initial
year in 2004 when almost no one
attended, to a large celebration which
draws more than 1,000 people.

It is a lot of fun, said Nagel. Its my
favorite day of the year. I think it is just
hysterically funny.
The Burlingame High School Band
and Los Trancos Woods Community
Marching Band will play musical
arrangements during the parade, and the
San Mateo Elks Concert band will play
afterward.
Those who wish to participate should
report by 9:30 a.m. to the parking lot
near Broadway and Chula Vista Avenue.
The award ceremony will be held after
the parade.

or call 342-2073 for more information.
transient with a last known address in

Tampa, Decker said. Evans may have
spent quite a bit time riding Caltrain and
police are unaware of where hes been
staying since he arrived in San Mateo,
Decker said.
San Mateo cops were called to the
downtown station on an unrelated matter
when one of the departments newer
detectives recognized Evans distinctive
tattoos, which included a red triangle
near the corner of his eye. He also
appeared to be wearing the same clothes
as the suspect in the video, Decker said.
No one was injured during the crime
and two witnesses from the pharmacy
positively identified Evans as the armed
robber, Decker said.
Prescription drug addiction is a trend-
ing and regulating the industry has been

somewhat difficult for medical professionals and law enforcement as abusers
often go to multiple doctors or even
order substances online, Decker said.
With reports estimating pharmacy
robberies have increased 56 percent in
California between 2013 and 2014,
Decker said its important to crack
down on prescription abuse-related
crimes.
In the last five years, more and more
you see prescription drug abuse versus
illegal drugs, Decker said. Thats why
the big push now is enforcement of
impaired driving and not just drunk driving. Because the people that are abusing
stuff like Vicodin and opiates, they drive
just as bad as anyone drinking.

NOTICE OF PETITION TO ADMINISTER ESTATE OF:
HENRY JAMES SCOTT AKA HENRY J.
SCOTT
CASE NO. 125993
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the WILL or
estate, or both of HENRY JAMES
SCOTT AKA HENRY J. SCOTT.
A PETITION FOR PROBATE has been
filed by SHIRLEY A. SCOTT in the Superior Court of California, County of SAN
MATEO.
THE PETITION FOR PROBATE requests that SHIRLEY A. SCOTT be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of the decedent.
THE PETITION requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent Administration of Estates Act with
limited authority. (This authority will allow
the personal representative to take many
actions without obtaining court approval.
Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have
waived notice or consented to the proposed action.) The independent administration authority will be granted unless an
interested person files an objection to the
petition and shows good cause why the
court should not grant the authority.
A HEARING on the petition will be held
in this court as follows: 10/13/15 at
9:00AM in Dept. 28 located at 400
COUNTY CENTER, REDWOOD CITY,
CA 94063
IF YOU OBJECT to the granting of the
petition, you should appear at the hearing and state your objections or file written objections with the court before the
hearing. Your appearance may be in person or by your attorney.
IF YOU ARE A CREDITOR or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must
file your claim with the court and mail a
copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within the later of either (1) four months from the date of first
issuance of letters to a general personal
representative, as defined in section
58(b) of the California Probate Code, or
(2) 60 days from the date of mailing or
personal delivery to you of a notice under
section 9052 of the California Probate
Code.
Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in California law.
YOU MAY EXAMINE the file kept by the
court. If you are a person interested in
the estate, you may file with the court a
Request for Special Notice (form DE154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any petition
or account as provided in Probate Code
section 1250. A Request for Special Notice form is available from the court clerk.

THE DAILY JOURNAL
TASK FORCE
that its unlikely the state or federal government will provide any assistance to solve one
of the richest county in Californias housing
crisis.
We have to help ourselves, Horsley said.
Assemblyman Rich Gordon, D-Menlo Park,
opened up the task forces first meeting by
acknowledging that the county has run out of
land on which to build.
The only way to build more housing is to
change density and that cannot be accomplished without a good transportation system,
Gordon said.
Transit-oriented development along El
Camino Real, the countys major transportation corridor, will be part of the discussion,
Gordon said.
He said, however, that the state should partner with the county to help solve the housing
crisis. Theres a bill on Gov. Jerry Browns
desk now that would provide additional tax
credits for the creation of affordable housing.
RENTALS
information illustrating the demand for shortterm rentals in South San Francisco, due to
skepticism over whether the industry bears
monitoring.
The bottom line is Im not convinced, at this
point in time, with the information I have, we
have such a big volume of these activities that
we need to regulate, said Councilman Pradeep
Gupta.
Those sentiments were echoed by Vice
Mayor Mark Addiego.
This is not registering as a problem yet, he
said.
35
With the loss of redevelopment agencies, a

dedicated source of funding at the state level
should be in place to build housing, Gordon
said.
Horsley said that making better use of
underutilized properties along El Camino
Real should be part of the solution. That will
mean that buildings along the corridor will
have to be taller than they are now.
One of the big obstacles is trying to get the
community to support the effort to build more
housing, Slocum said.
More housing means more traffic but the
public needs to know that without more housing and skyrocketing rents, many low-wage
earners will have to travel great distances to
do the jobs they do here.
Gordon said that for every tech job created,
another four service level jobs are created that
pay lower salaries.
Those are the people that if we cannot
house them here will clog up our roads,
Gordon said. You cant talk about housing
without talking about transportation.
Thursdays meeting was essentially an
opportunity for the task force members to
meet each other. No policy discussions took
place.
Daly City Councilman David Canepa is on

the task force and said its time for the county
to think big when it comes to solving the
housing crisis.
Currently, cities are exploring ways to
charge developers impact fees and commercial linkage fees to construct affordable housing based on nexus studies that link new
office construction to the need to build additional housing.
Canepa thinks the fees could make a difference but will urge other members of the task
force to consider floating a bond to build more
housing.
In San Francisco, voters will decide in
November the fate of a $300 million affordable housing bond that Canepa and housing
advocates in the area will keep a close eye on.
If it passes, it could be the impetus for starting the conversation in San Mateo County,
said Canepa, who supports putting a $500
million bond on the ballot in the future to
build affordable housing.
We have a housing crisis that is unparalleled, Canepa said.
Canepa was pleased with how the first
meeting of the task force went.
Its tremendous to get people from the

north and south county together, he said. It
was a great starting point.
Beginning with Thursdays kickoff, the task
force will meet for eight meetings over nine
months. A public input process is anticipated
for spring 2016.
The task forces members, appointed by the
Board of Supervisors, will include two county supervisors, city councilmembers, planning
commissioners, both profit and nonprofit
housing developers and members of the
Housing Leadership Council of San Mateo,
the Housing Endowment and Regional Trust,
HIP Housing, San Mateo County Board of
Realtors,
the
California
Apartment
Association, chambers of commerce, League
of Women Voters and the San Mateo County
Economic Development Association.
The task force next meets Oct. 22.
There are a handful of listings offering rooms

or homes in South San Francisco, ranging from
about $60 to $250 per night, on various shortterm vacation rental websites.
City staff forwarded the effort to regulate the
rentals in advance of a potential influx of visitors to the Bay Area coming to attend the Super
Bowl in Santa Clara.
Those renting residences in South San
Francisco could contribute to existing parking
and traffic congestion issues in neighborhoods,
as well as potentially pose public safety threats
which would have an adverse effect of the
quality of life to local residents, among a variety of other concerns, according to a city staff
report.
But ensuring those renting their homes
through websites are properly permitted would
largely be based on complaints by neighbors,
which would be an inefficient method of

enforcement, said Councilwoman Karyl
Matsumoto.
She said imposing the regulations could
cause a bureaucratic nightmare, and questioned how effective the proposed policy might
be in meeting its goal.
Mayor Richard Garbarino though said he felt
those who rented their rooms or home for profit were essentially operating businesses, and
should be subject to the same oversight as other
local companies.
Under the recommendation, listings on vacation rental websites would have also been subject to the citys transient occupancy tax, or
hotel tax, which takes 10 percent of the gross
rent paid by guests. The citys conference center tax would take an additional $2.50 per occupied room per night, as well.
The regulation would have gone into effect
as a pilot program, lasting one year, which
would have given officials an opportunity to
gauge the effectiveness of the policy against
the cost of operating permitting and enforcement.
Also, under the proposed policy, renters
would not be able to stay longer than 90 days
in a home where the host is not present, but

hosted renters would not be regulated in terms
of length of stay.
Addiego said he appreciated the opportunity
for residents to rent out space in their home,
while being a good host to visitors to South San
Francisco, and making a little additional
income in the process.
Unless it becomes a neighborhood problem,
I dont think it needs to be regulated, he said.
Councilwoman Liza Normandy said as other
local communities, such as San Mateo and
Belmont, consider similar regulations on the
short-term rental market, South San Francisco
officials should examine the policies being discussed.
She expressed a willingness to eventually
regulate the industry, but would need more
information before making a decision.
Garbarino echoed those sentiments.
For the moment, this could probably be put
back on the shelf until when it becomes necessary, he said.
