DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

A group of conservative voters

rejuvenated by the rare opportunity to influence the selection of
their partys next presidential
nominee joined together over the
weekend at an unusual and eventful
California Republican convention
in Burlingame.
The festivities began Friday,
April 29 with masses gathering to
protest the arrival of Donald
Trump, causing the front-runner to
chart a wayward path into his
address at the Hyatt Regency, and
culminated Sunday, May 1, with
an abbreviated agenda of sessions
and meetings.
The rest of the weekend featured
speeches by other presidential
hopefuls John Kasich and Ted
Cruz, as well as his running mate
Carly Fiorina, a variety of conferences and workshops and the collective empowerment of a voter
group typically marginalized by
their minority in a liberal leaning
state.
As the party continues to search
for its preferred presidential nominee to send forward against the
Democrats in Novembers general
election, Californias 172 delegates up for grabs in the Tuesday
June, 7 primary loom large.

As a parcel tax supporting the

San Mateo-Foster City Elementary
School District nears its sunset,
officials are eyeing a potential
timeline for bringing an extension proposal before voters in an
upcoming election.
The district Board of Trustees
discussed during a meeting last
week strategies for asking voters
to approve an extension for the
tax which generates roughly $7

million annually to support classroom services.

Though no decision was made
during the meeting Thursday, April
21, board President Ed Coady said
it is imperative district officials
move swiftly to preserve the funding source which he considered
vital to ensure students are offered
the best possible education.

Back to the future in a ferry boat

The
Eureka
still
afloat.

Police reports
Its for the baby!
Someone was seen stealing baby formula and probiotics on the 600 block
of Broadway in Millbrae before 4:09
p.m. Friday, April 22.

MILLBRAE

hatever the future holds for ferry

boat service on Bay waters, it
has a long way to go to match
the record of the past.
The San Francisco Bay Ferry system
recently noted that it carries 2.3 million
passengers a year from Alameda, Oakland,
San Francisco, South San Francisco and
Vallejo.
How about aiming for a ridership of 50
million, the peak annual passenger load of
the massive ferry fleet that once sailed San
Francisco Bay? That would have been in the
1930s when 50 or so boats operated from
major metropolitan ports.
The hub of the system was the Ferry
Building in San Francisco that was the destination of as many as 50,000 riders a day.
According to the website Bay Crossings,
ferries made 340 arrivals and departures
daily. Service was so frequent and dependable that streetcars pulled up to the Ferry
Building every 20 seconds until the openings of the Golden Gate and Bay bridges
marked the beginning of the end.
The Ferry Building and its distinctive
245-foot clock tower, which newspaper
columnist Herb Caen christened San
Franciscos most famous landmark, still
stands, having survived two major earthquakes relatively undamaged because of its
unusual, elongated construction.
Another remnant of the once dominant
travel system is the ferry boat Eureka, now a
tourist attraction at the National Park
Services Hyde Street Pier maritime park at

San Franciscos Fishermans Wharf. The

Eureka had a seating capacity of 2,300,
making it the largest passenger ferry in the
world, according to John Kembles San
Francisco Bay. The Eureka, at nearly 300
feet, is billed as the longest wooden hulled
vessel afloat. To the truly dedicated ferry
fan, the Eureka is famous for being the last
of the walking beam ferries. Her retirement
in 1956 ended the use of giant ferry boats on
San Francisco Bay.
In an article in the Journal of Local
History, the late Kathleen Wade of Redwood
City recounted her days sailing on the ferries during the 1920s and 1930s.
Ferry rides were a great time to relax, read
the news, or walk the decks and take in the
views, she wrote. Some of our family were
daily commuters.
Wades sister used her time aboard the
ferry to study for classes at the University of
California at Berkeley.
Wade wrote that one of the highlights of
the voyage was seeing the main engine in
motion and watching the big rocker arms
pumping up and down, a possible reference
to the aforementioned walking beam.
All of Wades trips werent so pleasant.
I still have a vivid memory of our ferry
collision in 1937 when structure, timber,
and broken glass went flying. The few sitting next to the windows had jumped away,
but still got cut by flying glass fragments
and needed emergency treatment. It was a

frightening experience, but on the

other hand, it could have been much worse.
In Wades telling, she was aboard the ferry
Vallejo that was struck by the Eureka.
However, the National Park Services Lynn
Cullivan said she has no record of such an
accident. However, she said the Eureka did
collide with the ferry Golden West on Sept.
19, 1936. The San Francisco Chronicle had
a front page story under the headline
Woman hurt. 100s shaken. The newspaper
account reads very much like Wades.
The most famous ferry boat crash took
place on a foggy November night in 1909
when the Sausalito and San Rafael collided,
killing three people. The accident inspired
the ferry boat collision depicted in the
opening stages of Jack Londons The Sea
Wolf.

Clifford appears in the Daily Journal every other

Convention a homecoming of sorts for Fiorina

By Nicholas Riccardi
and Michael R. Blood
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BURLINGAME When Carly

Fiorina spoke at the California
Republican Party convention at a
hotel outside San Francisco airport, it was a brief homecoming of
sorts for the newly minted vice
presidential candidate.
Fiorina grew up in the Bay Area
and became chief executive officer
of Hewlett Packard there before
plunging into politics with an
unsuccessful
run
against
Democratic Sen. Barbara Boxer in
2010. But this is no usual
Republican presidential primary,
and Fiorinas appearance wont
quite be the return of a favorite
daughter.
Shes running on a ticket with
Sen. Ted Cruz, whos mathematically eliminated from becoming
the GOP presidential nominee
unless the Republican National
Convention is contested. Fiorina
left California for Virginia shortly
after losing her Senate race and
didnt pay several California operatives for years, until she was run-

ning for president

herself
this winter.
E v e n
Fiorinas return
was basically a
toe-touch. She
flew in after a
day of stumpCarly Fiorina ing in mustwin Indiana,
gave a brief speech punctuated
with digs at Trump then rushed out
to fly back to Indiana. But she
brought the crowd to its feet
Saturday night after a series of
zingers aimed at the front-runner,
mocking his insistence the previous day that he essentially had the
nomination sewn up.
The 30-yard-line aint a touchdown. The 20-yard-line aint a
touchdown. The 5-yard-line aint a
touchdown. It aint a touchdown
until its a touchdown, Fiorina
said, adding: Im sorry, you cannot just throw an R on your jersey and say you believe what our
party stands for.
Fiorinas former home state is
assuming outsized importance
this primary season. Normally an

afterthought in the presidential

nominating contest, Californias
172 delegates that are up for grabs
on June 7 may decide whether
Donald Trump becomes the partys
nominee or if Cruz still has a shot
to take the title on a second ballot
at the Republican National
Convention in July. Vice presidential selections rarely move
votes in a general election, but
Trump opponents are hopeful
Fiorina can help Cruz in the
Golden States primary.
She campaigned in this state
very well, she won with these voters, said Rob Stutzman, a GOP
operative helping with efforts to
defeat Trump in the primary, referring to the base GOP voters who
backed Fiorina in 2010. She was
a good Republican candidate here.
Shes the perfect surrogate for
Cruz.
Fiorina won
a bruising
Republican primary in 2010, outflanking her opponents from the
right to become the partys nominee to take on Boxer, a liberal who
was viewed as vulnerable in the
2010 Republican wave. But
Fiorina was trounced in the gener-

al election, losing by 1 million

votes after being hammered for her
stewardship of Hewlett Packard
and role in outsourcing jobs overseas.
Still, she won more votes in
this overwhelmingly Democratic
state than other Republican candidates for statewide office that year
and displayed a hard-charging
campaign style that endeared her
to many Republicans.
State party chairman Jim Brulte
said Fiorina was the first presidential candidate to respond to his
invitation to appear at the state
party convention that he issued to
the entire presidential field in
January, when she was still a contender for the top office. Thats
probably because I sent it to her
personal email account, he said.
Cruz spoke to the convention
Saturday afternoon and highlighted his running mate, saying shed
be the first Californian on a
national ticket since Reagan,
although she lives in Virginia,
home to many national political
aspirants. Still, his references
drew cheers and when he asked
attendees if they knew why he

picked Fiorina, one shouted,

Because shes good!
Still, Fiorina disappointed
some Republicans in California.
GOP strategist Matt Rexroad was
leaning toward Cruz but said the
selection of Fiorina makes him
question whether hell support the
Texan senator.
Rexroad allowed that Fiorina
will be popular among the party
faithful at the convention. But
that group is a tiny minority of
Republicans wholl vote on June
7. That isnt necessarily reflective of the electorate, he said.
Even the Fiorina faithful may
not be won over to Cruzs side by
her selection. Phyllis Stout, 75,
from San Luis Obispo in Central
California, was thrilled that
Fiorina was speaking to the convention.
I loved her, she said of
Fiorinas 2010 Senate bid. She
knew her stuff. She was a very
intelligent lady.
But shes not going to vote for
Cruz theres just something
about the Texas senator that Stout
doesnt like. Instead, shes leaning toward Trump.

May Day marchers take to streets in heated election year

By Christopher Weber
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LOS ANGELES Hundreds of

May Day marchers chanting slogans and carrying signs and at
least one Donald Trump piata
took to the streets of Los Angeles
on Sunday calling for immigrant
and worker rights and decrying
what they see as hateful presidential campaign rhetoric.
Its one of several events in
cities nationwide to call for better
wages for workers, an end to
deportations and support for an
Obama administration plan to
give work permits to immigrants

in the country illegally whose

children are American citizens.
We want them to hear our voices, to know that we are here and
that we want a better life, with
jobs, said Norberto Guiterrez, a
46-year-old immigrant from
Mexico who joined families,
union members and students who
marched through downtown.
Demonstrators repeatedly called
out Trump for his remarks about
immigrants, workers and women.
The leading Republican presidential contender has called for a wall
on the border with Mexico and
chided Democratic hopeful Hillary
Clinton for playing the so-called

woman card.
In addition to fighting for
workers rights, we are fighting
for our dignity this time around,
our self-respect, said JorgeMario Cabrera, a spokesman for
the Coalition for Humane
Immigrant Rights of Los Angeles.
We can certainly encourage
folks to look at what theyre watching, what theyre hearing and have
them represent themselves and
their families whether they can
vote or not and say, We are not
the rapists. We are not the criminals
you are talking about. And we are
quite good for this country,
Cabrera said.

Home Care with a Personal Touch

Trump says he is not racist or

anti-immigrant; he simply wants
the U.S. to stop illegal immigration and control its borders.
Around the world, union members have traditionally marched
on May 1 for workers rights. In
the United States, the annual
events have become a rallying
point for immigrants and their
supporters since massive demonstrations in 2006 against a proposed immigration enforcement
bill.
In recent years, the marches
have waned in size in U.S. cities,
but the tradition has continued.
Large marches are planned

virtually uncontrollable. Roberts
said perhaps the court should
strike at the root of the problem
and declare unconstitutional a key

Bodies found in melting glacier

LOS ANGELES The bodies of
a renowned mountain climber and
expedition cameraman who were
buried in a Himalayan avalanche
16 years ago have been found.
The widow of Alex Lowe said in
a statement Friday that two
climbers attempting to ascend the
26, 291-foot Shishapangma in
Tibet discovered the remains of
two people partially melting out
of a glacier.
The climbers described the
clothing and backpacks seen on
the bodies to Conrad Anker, who
was climbing with Lowe and cameraman David Bridges at the time

of the October 1999 avalanche and

survived. Anker concluded that the
two were Bridges and Lowe, the
statement said.
Alex and David vanished, were
captured and frozen in time.
Sixteen years of life has been lived
and now they are found. We are
thankful, Jenni Lowe-Anker said.
She married Anker, her husbands friend and fellow elite
climber, in 2001. They live in
Bozeman, Montana, and run the
Alex Lowe Charitable Foundation
together.
Anker said the discovery has
brought closure and relief to him.
He told Outside magazine that
although he hasnt seen photos of

the remains, hes convinced they

are those of Lowe and Bridges.
They were close to each other.
Blue and red North Face backpacks. Yellow Koflach boots. It
was all that gear from that time
period. They were pretty much the
only two climbers who were
there, Anker said.
Lowe, Anker, Bridges and several others were on an expedition to
climb Shishapangma, the 14th
highest mountain in the world,
then ski down it. They were scouting out routes at about 19,000 feet
when they saw a slab of snow
break free 6,000 feet above them.
Lowe was regarded as the worlds
greatest mountain climber.

Scalias vote, but his distinctive

voice as well. The biggest difference at the court since Scalias
death has been the way the justices
relate to each other during arguments that once were filled with
Scalias pointed barbs and wry
wit.
In some arguments, Justice
Sonia Sotomayor has adopted a
more aggressive tone, even challenging Roberts or interrupting
his line of questioning. During
arguments last month over the
Obama health care laws contraception mandate, Roberts suggested that women who work at
faith-based groups that object to
birth control coverage could
instead apply for it through the
federal insurance exchanges.
Thats
a
falsehood,
Sotomayor said before Solicitor
General Donald Verrilli Jr. could
respond.
In a second case involving
Puerto Ricos financial plight,
Sotomayor essentially answered a
question Roberts had asked lawyer
Chris Landau.

If corruption prosecutions are
one area in which ideology seems
less important, concern about digital-age privacy is another. Two
years ago, the court unanimously
ruled for a suspected gang member
after police searched his smartphone without a warrant.
On both topics, the fear of
unbridled government power worries liberals and conservatives
alike.
In two more cases, the court
unanimously
turned
away
Republican- and conservative-led
voting rights challenges in
Arizona and Texas. Both cases
still might have come out the

losing had Scalia been on the

Scalias death, perhaps to avoid
division.

Palm Dr

WASHINGTON Two months,

31 arguments and 18 decisions
decisions since the death of
Justice Antonin Scalia, is the
Supreme Court hopelessly deadlocked or coping as a party of
eight?
The answer varies with the
issue, but arguments last week in
the corruption case of former
Virginia Gov. Bob McDonnell
show there are high-profile cases
on which justices from the left and
the right agree more often than
they dont.
There also is some indication,
hazy though it may be, that the
court is trying to avoid division in
an era of stark political partisanship and during a rollicking presidential campaign.
The court prides itself appropriately as being an institution
that works, said Washington
lawyer Andy Pincus, who argues
regularly at the Supreme Court.
If the court can demonstrate an
ability to get its work done, that

could reinforce

At the same time, the court has
split 4-4 in two cases and part of a
third, and the justices could end up
similarly divided over immigration, birth control and a couple of
other issues. Scalias death has
deprived the courts conservatives
of a fifth, majority-making vote
on some high-profile issues.
In McDonnells appeal of his
corruption convictions, however,
liberal and conservative justices
seemed to share a deep skepticism
of the governments case. They
strongly suggested that the court
eventually will set aside his criminal conviction.

Campaign rumbles into Indiana; underdogs struggling

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

TERRE HAUTE, Ind. The

2016 presidential campaign rumbled through Indiana Sunday
focused on Tuesdays critical primary, even as front-runners
Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump
itched to fully engage in the oneon-one battle they cast as
inevitable.
But the underdogs in both parties made clear they had no plans
to exit the race, at least until the
Indiana results come in and perhaps longer.
Were going the distance,
Trump rival Ted Cruz said on
ABCs This Week, arguing that
Trump wont be able to get the
majority of delegates required to
clinch the nomination. Were
going into Cleveland, and it will
be a contested convention.
On the Democratic side, Bernie
Sanders insisted that his path to
the nomination depends on the

unlikely prospect of ipping

superdelegates who are now committed to Clinton. Superdelegates
can vote for either candidate. The
former secretary of state is still 91
percent of the way to the nomination, according to The Associated
Press. She is 218 delegates away
from winning the 2,383 need to
clinch the nomination.
We have an uphill climb, no
question about it, he said, before
hopping a plane to Indiana to continue the contest.
And so the stalemate between
the front-runners and their struggling rivals continued.
The frustration was dramatic on
the
Republican
side.
Campaigning in Terre Haute,
Indiana, Trump again reiterated
that he believes the GOP race is
over, something hes been saying
for days even though he hasnt
secured the 1, 237 delegates
required to win the nomination. He
groused that Cruz and Ohio Gov.

John Kasich

Bernie Sanders

John Kasich should still get out

because they are forcing him into
wasting time that he could otherwise spend raising money for
the Senate races.
That overt offer of fundraising is
new for Trump, incentive for
Republican leaders to help push
Cruz and Kasich out of the race.
Senior adviser Paul Manafort further telegraphed the message
Sunday on CBS Face the
Nation, saying that Trump is
looking to strengthen ties to
leaders of the Republican Party
and various committees to help

raise money for them.

Clinton, in Indianapolis, did
not bother mentioning Sanders
name. Instead, she criticized
Trump for embracing GOP economic policies that have left
everyday workers behind. And she
took aim at both Trump and Cruz
for wanting to slash taxes on the
wealthy and for using dangerous rhetoric about Muslims.
Cruz wasnt surrendering to the
delegate math, even after a tough
week in which former House
Speaker John Boehner called him
Lucifer in the esh and a miserable son of a bitch. Cruz pointed
out on several political talk shows
that Indiana Gov. Mike Pence and
former California Gov. Pete
Wilson have endorsed him and
that Trump cant get a majority of
Republicans to back him.
The Cruz campaign has put an
emphasis on Indiana and a loss
here could be perceived as crippling to his campaign, which is

perhaps why the candidate himself

has shifted to talking about competing in next months California
primary and beyond.
Trump dominated the talk show
conversation Sunday. On ABC,
the rst question posed to former
CIA director and defense secretary
Robert Gates was about what a
Trump candidacy would mean for
the nations national security.
I think based on the speech,
youd have somebody who doesnt
understand the difference between
a business negotiation and a negotiation with sovereign powers,
Gates, who has worked for both
Republican and Democratic presidents, replied. He doesnt understand that theres a give-and-take
in international relations that is
different than in the business community.
On CBS, Sen. Lindsey Graham,
said Trumps foreign policy
amounts to isolationism. It will
lead to another 9/11.

Calm returns to much of Syria

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BEIRUT Syrias military

extended a unilateral cease-fire
around the capital for another 24
hours on Sunday, as relative calm
set in across much of the country
after days of heavy fighting concentrated in the northern city of
Aleppo.
Aleppo, the countrys largest
city and a key battleground in the
civil war, was not covered by the
cease-fire but saw less fighting on
Sunday. More than 250 people
have died in shelling and
airstrikes in the northern city over
the last nine days, according to
the
Britain-based
Syrian
Observatory for Human Rights.
The government declared its
own cease-fire around Damascus
and the coastal Latakia region
Friday following two weeks of
escalating unrest. But more than
three dozen rebel factions said
Saturday they would not respect

MANILA Abu Sayyaf militants freed 10

Indonesian crewmen who were seized at sea
in March in the first of three attacks on tugboats that have sparked a regional maritime
security alarm, officials said.
The Indonesians appeared to be in good
health when they were dropped off Sunday
afternoon in front of the house of Sulu
provinces governor in the town of Jolo,
said the towns police chief, Junpikar Sitin.
The 10 men were then brought to a

Philippine military camp and arrangements

were underway to turn them over to
Indonesian officials.

shows the sunburned men in fresh shirts eating rice and chicken with Sulus governor
on a veranda beside a Japanese-style garden
in his house. In another photo, some of the
men are puffing cigarettes and enjoying coffee while resting on chairs.
Jolos mayor, Hussin Amin, welcomed the
release of the Indonesians, but said he did
not know whether a ransom had been paid.

that Moscows forces were negotiating a cease-fire for the Aleppo
province.
The Observatory said 859 civilians, including 143 children, died
in Syrias conflict in April,
despite a partial cease-fire brokered by the U.S. and Russia in
late February. That cease-fire disintegrated in recent weeks, largely
over the fighting in and around
Aleppo.
In Aleppo, as in the rest of the
country, pro-government forces
were responsible for most of the
civilian causalities, according to
the Observatory, which relies on a
network of opposition activists
inside Syria.
At the Vatican on Sunday, Pope
Francis decried the violence and
desperate humanitarian situation in Syria, and especially
Aleppo.
He made special note of an

airstrike against a hospital in the

rebel-held section of the contested
city that is believed to have been
carried out by Syrian government
or Russian aircraft.
The international humanitarian
agency Doctors Without Borders
(MSF) said at least 50 people,
including six medical personnel,
died in the attack on Al-Quds hospital, which was supported by
MSF and the International
Committee of the Red Cross.
In his traditional Sunday
remarks to the faithful in St.
Peters Square, Francis lamented
the spiral of violence that was
reaping innocent victims, even
among children, the sick and
those who with great sacrifice are
committed to helping their neighbors.
The pope said he was exhorting
all sides involved in the conflict
to respect the cessation of hostilities and reinforce ongoing dialogue.

Watchdog tries to stop new

threats of chemical weapons
By Mike Corder
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

THE HAGUE, Netherlands With about

92 percent of the worlds declared chemical
weapons stockpiles destroyed, the watchdog agency overseeing the elimination of
poison gas and nerve agents is looking now
to counter emerging threats from extremist
groups while still dealing with unfinished
business in Syria.
The Organization for the Prohibition of
Chemical Weapons is marking the April 29,
1997, entry into force of the Chemical
Weapons Convention with a three-day conference starting Monday focusing on chemical safety and security.
It appears, in the future, extremists and
criminals seem more likely than nations to
launch chemical attacks.
We want to capture the current security
threats in regard to chemical weapons, especially from non-state actors, OPCW
Director-General Ahmet Uzumcu told The
Associated Press at the organizations headquarters in The Hague.
There have been repeated reports of chem-

ical attacks in Syrias devastating civil war

and a U.N.-mandated investigation is underway aimed at apportioning blame for nine
cases in 2014 and 2015. A final report is
expected shortly before the teams mandate
ends in September.
In some of the cases, its believed that
chlorine was used in the attacks. The widely
available substance is sold the world over
for legitimate purposes such as water purification, but chlorine gas also was used in the
first large-scale chemical weapons attack by
German forces in World War I.
The challenge will remain to prevent the
use of toxic substances as a weapon, said
Uzumcu, whose organization won the 2013
Nobel Peace Prize for its disarmament
efforts.
The issue is not new, the OPCW has been
considering it since the 9/11 attacks in the
United States, but it has been brought into
sharper focus by the attacks in Syria.
At the conference starting Monday,
experts will discuss how to use the existing
chemical weapons convention to tackle the
problem and whether the OCPW needs to
adapt to the new reality.

Housing task force solutions deserve attention

By Rhovy Lyn Antonio

he cost of housing is a major

issue facing the city of San
Mateo. Failing to focus on
long-term solutions jeopardizes the
diversity of the community. If addressing our regions housing challenge is a
priority, we need everyone at the table
working collaboratively on solutions.
The San Mateo City Council took
action and established a housing task
force composed of diverse stakeholders
representing business, labor, rental
owners, renters, developers, the faithbased community, educators and local
residents. The task force was challenged to put all options on the table
and make recommendations to the City
Council.
Taking its assignment seriously, the
task force assembled a slate of wideranging solutions to build more housing, fund housing needs and develop
new programs to resolve disputes
between renters and rental owners. But
in early April, instead of vetting this
proposal as scheduled, the conversation was dominated by one issue
rent control. Six months of work was
overshadowed by blustering demands
for a faulty policy the task force did not
endorse.
The City Council and community
should circle back and seriously consider the broad recommendations in the
San Mateo Housing Task Force report,
which contains more than 30 initiatives where the task force reached consensus.
The task force took a new approach
to secondary dwelling units and recommended junior units independent
homes with an external entrance
attached to the main house. Under this
concept, one can creatively recongure
the houses layout using the existing
square footage to add a new unit.
This concept for naturally affordable

housing units
gained unanimous
support from task
force members as a
solid option for single workers, daycare
providers, in-laws
and senior citizens
who dont want to
move but have no
need to occupy an entire house. Its
cost-effective, doesnt trigger new
parking requirements and doesnt burden our city services.
The task force also endorsed developing broad and equitable funding mechanisms to create or preserve affordable
housing to replace the citys loss of
redevelopment agency funds. These
include impact fees, a housing bond
and partnering with outside agencies
such as employers, faith-based groups
and other governmental agencies.
Recognizing the challenges both
renters and rental owners have with the
Section 8 program, the group recommended that the city work to encourage
use of the Section 8 Housing Choice
Voucher Program by providing
enhanced security deposits, move-out
assistance, expedited inspections and
by working with the county to overcome impediments to the use of
Section 8 vouchers.
Other recommendations included
overhauling the permitting process for
housing, a community discussion on
the benets of high-density housing
along transit corridors, using cityowned land for housing units, working
with schools and employers to build
workforce housing following the success of the College of San Mateo had
with this model, and exploring whether
the citys decades-old building-height
limitation prevents new homes from
being built.
Housing providers offered numerous
solutions to provide relief for renters

who feel vulnerable. The California

Apartment Association suggested the
task force recommend offering minimum lease terms modeled after the city
of Mountain View, mediation programs
to resolve disagreements and reasonable, targeted relocation assistance
when a rental unit is taken off the market. These policies and programs offer
reliability, predictability, and stability
especially when one faces unforeseen situations.
Surprisingly, tenant advocates ercely rejected these proposals. They only
supported the same failed policy that
has led to higher housing costs in
every city thats adopted it: rent control. There was no willingness to compromise.
This was proven true by the ling of
tenant advocates petition to place rent
control on the November ballot less
than 24 hours after the City Council
rejected rent control at its April 4 meeting.
Lets not be distracted or divided by
rent control. Lets pursue the positive,
productive policies recommended by
the task force.
The City Council would be well
served by focusing on the 28 pages of
reasonable solutions to our communitys housing challenges. These are recommendations that add housing, build
bridges in our community and serve to
provide a long-term solution to this
vexing issue.
Rhovy Lyn Antonio is the government
affairs director for the California
Apartment Association, Tri-County
Division a membership-based trade
association which serves the rental
housing industry in San Mateo, Santa
Clara and Santa Cruz counties. She was a
member of the San Mateo Housing Task
Force.

Two birds with one stone
Editor,
SPI Holdings has offered $4 million
to the city to convert the
Bridgepointe ice rink. This not only
seems like a fair deal, but is the best
the city is going to get. I nd it hard
to believe that if ice skating were as
popular as advocates say, that
Bridgepointe would want to close the
rink. This is not Minnesota,
Michigan or Wisconsin. The money
could be used to redevelop the Poplar
Creek golf course into a revenue-generating facility that would not require
a subsidy.

Golfs popularity has been in

decline for some time; the game takes
too long. It is still perceived as a
sport for white males. Lessons and
equipment are quite expensive compared to other sports. The Poplar
Creek course has an annual decit of
$400,000 and it looks like the city
will have to subsidize it for some
time to come.
A good solution would be to convert Poplar Creek into a nine-hole
course and use the remaining land for
a revenue-generating sports complex.
I dont know what form this complex
would take. The city should conduct a

All 20 cities
in county
on board
I

n an amazing show of unity and concern for the environment all 20 cities in San Mateo County have
joined the Peninsula Clean Energy Authority.
Beginning this October, Peninsula residents who have
chosen to purchase their
energy through the authority will still have their heat
and electricity transmitted
by Pacic Gas and Electric
and will still be billed by
the utility but most of that
energy will come from
clean energy sources.
Those who dont want to
be part of this plan can opt
out. If residents and business do not, they will automatically be enrolled.
According to San Mateo
County Supervisor Dave
Pine, who co-chairs the
authority with Supervisor
Carole Groom, San Mateo
is the fth county in the state to join a community renewable energy program. Marin, Sonoma, Lancaster and San
Francisco already have similar programs. Every city will
have a representative on the authority.
***
Another ambitious program, this one involving all Bay
Area counties, seeks to restore tidal wetlands and in doing
so increase natural ood protection as we face the threat of
sea level rise. It will be the rst nine-county tax measure
a $12 parcel tax expected to raise $25 million a year
over its 20-year term. To succeed, it requires a two-thirds
vote in each county.
Pine, also chair of the San Francisco Bay Restoration
Authority, created by the Legislature in 2008, points out
that San Mateo County is the most vulnerable to sea level
rise as measured by property values. But each of the nine
counties has property and infrastructure at risk. Too often,
development did not leave any tidal wetlands. This is
especially true east of Highway 101. Also vulnerable on
Federal Emergency Management Agency maps in case of
100-year storm levels are San Francisquito Creek, Bay
canals, mobile parks, Belmont slough and San Bruno and
Colma creeks.
According to Save The Bay, the measure will invest
$500 million over 20 years to enhance the Bay and protect the shoreline for future generations. It will restore
thousands of acres of tidal marsh; make the Bay healthier
for sh, birds, seals and other threatened marine life;
accelerate projects that protect shoreline communities and
infrastructure; improve Bay water quality; and improve
public access including trails and recreation.
It may be a tough sell in some counties but it does have
the support of the local press including the Daily Journal
and the San Francisco Chronicle; and business groups
such as the Bay Area Council and the Silicon Valley
Leadership Group.
All are recommending a yes vote on Measure AA on the
June 7 ballot.
***
San Mateos jewel, downtown Central Park, is especially lovely this time of year. The roses are out in full
bloom. Its fun to stroll around the gazebo, marvel at the
different varieties and colors and see how they are named.
One pink is passionate kiss, one of the red rose bushes
is called Fame, the orange-yellow combination is
bronze star yellow, the pure yellow, sunshine day
dream, the white, fragrant wave, one of the orange yellow bushes, About Face, and the well-named yellow
species Good as Gold.
The San Mateo Arboretum Society is responsible for
this beautiful display and also sells a wide selection of
well-priced plants. You know its a labor of love when you
see the many garden-gloved volunteers planting, picking
and arranging.
The Japanese Tea Garden is always crowded on weekends, especially with kids wanting to see and feed the
carp. Best to go during the week when you can enjoy its
peace and beauty. All this for free (except for the taxes you
pay to support it).
As for Measure AA, $12 a year is a small price to pay for
keeping us safe from overowing creeks and the rising
Bay. We all enjoy the benet of San Francisco Bay. Lets
protect it!

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

AUSTIN, Texas Apple has created more

than 2,000 new jobs in Austin since 2012
and is on track to meet the area hiring goals
it promised in exchange for millions of dollars in public incentives, according to documents filed with the city.
The technology giant is set to receive
$35 million in tax incentives over the next
several years from the city of Austin, Travis
County and the state of Texas for an expansion of its operations in central Texas, the
Austin American-Statesman reported.
Under the terms of the incentives package, which was signed in March 2012,
Apple Inc. agreed to create more than 3,600
new full-time jobs in Austin in 10 years
while retaining at least 3,100 existing fulltime jobs year over year.
According to the agreement, the average

Uber, blind riders reach settlement over service animals

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO Uber and

advocates for the blind have
reached a lawsuit settlement in
which the ride-hailing company
agrees to require that existing and
new drivers confirm they understand their legal obligations to
transport riders with guide dogs or
other service animals, an advocacy group announced Saturday.

The National Federation of the

Blind said Saturday that Uber will
also remove a driver from the platform after a single complaint if it
determines the driver knowingly
denied a person with a disability a
ride because the person was traveling with a service animal.
The settlement resolves a lawsuit filed in 2014 in federal court
that alleges Uber discriminates
against passengers with service

dogs. The lawsuit said Uber drivers

refused to take passengers with
dogs and in one case locked the
passengers service dog in the
trunk.
Federal law requires taxis and
other private transportation services to carry a disabled passengers service animal.

Caada sneaks into JC baseball playoffs

By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Despite the dreadful outcome of their regular-season finale, the Caada Colts qualified
for the California Community College baseball playoffs as the last seed in the Northern
California bracket.
After falling 21-4 to Chabot at home
Saturday, the Colts seemed destined to miss
the postseason as the loss dropped their
overall record below .500 to 17-18. By
virtue of their second-place finish in the
Coast Pacific Conference, however, the

Colts earned the No. 18

seed, with third-place

years. The winner advances to the best-ofthree opening playoff round, starting Friday.
Were excited about the opportunity,
Caada manager Tony Lucca said. We had a
rough week this past week but were not a
bad ball club. And when you catch us on the
right day were pretty tough to beat.
Hopefully we show up and compete on
Tuesday to give us a chance to continue our
season.
As the Colts left the field Saturday, the
mood was one of a team that had just seen
their season finished. The somber club had

just taken a shellacking from visiting

Chabot (13-7 in Coast Golden Gate, 23-13
overall), as the Gladiators were powered by a
three-home run day by freshman third baseman Steven Nice.
A make-up game from a rainout earlier in
the year, the loss capped a stretch of four
games in five days for the Colts. Because it
was a conference crossover game with a

Forget winners, losers; think NFL draft trends

By Barry Wilner
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Figuring out who won or lost in

an NFL draft takes years, not
hours. Finding trends is a whole
lot easier.
Some were obvious, such as the
love given Ohio State, and the disdain for 2015 bowl teams Tennessee,
Duke and North Carolina.
The desire to find quarterbacks
lasted from the first two picks
through No. 223. The search for
running backs was virtually an
afterthought for three rounds, with
only four going in the first 100.
A look at what NFL teams were
thinking and doing in the 253pick marathon.

Quarterback search
Consider that the top two overall selections were Jared Goff of
Cal and Carson
Wentz of North
Dakota State.
Quarterbacks.
Now consider
that last year,
Jameis Winston
and
Marcus
Mariota went 12. Quarterbacks.
Jared Goff
The huge difference is that Winston and
Mariota widely were viewed as
cant-miss prospects. Goff and
Wentz probably wouldnt have
gone in the top half of the first

round in 2015, even though both

are solid players with big upsides.
Finding a franchise quarterback
has become paramount for NFL
clubs, so much so that the Rams
and Eagles mortgaged much of
their draft stock to get to the top
of this grab bag.
One player can change your
team, and for us, we know how
important that is, that position,
and so investing in that position
was a no-brainer, said Eagles vice
president of football operations
Howie Roseman.
There is more to the QB story,
though.
In all, 15 passers were drafted;

Three-home run games are

Last season on Sept. 26, 2015, in
just his 15th game as a big leaguer
with the San

Giants, the lefthanded hitting

Jarrett Parker

Triple-A affiliate Sacramento,
Parker replicated the feat Sunday in
the River Cats 16-6 win at Angels
affiliate Salt Lake.
The win marked the second
straight offensive explosion for the
River Cats. They triumphed 14-1 in
Salt Lake on Saturday, totaling 24
hits. Parker, however, did not play
in that game. He made up for it
Sunday though, going deep in the
fourth, sixth and eighth innings,
totaling six RBIs on the day.
The output skyrocketed Parker
into the team lead for home runs
with five on the season. He had

performance and is currently hitting
.203 on the year with a Pacific
Coast League leading 31 strikeouts.
Former Serra and Skyline
College pitcher Julian Merryweather
had his scoreless-innings streak to
start the year snapped at 18 1/3
innings last Tuesday for Indians
High-A affiliate Lynchburg, yielding a first-inning home run to
Winston-Salem third baseman
Gerson Montilla. Merryweather still
worked six innings to earn his fourth
straight victory. Sunday, however,
Merryweather was victimized by four
unearned runs to take his first loss in
a 5-4 loss to Carolina, dropping his
record to 4-1. Through five appearances this year, the right-hander
owns a 0.60 ERA, ranking first
among all Carolina League pitchers.
As minor league outfielder
James Harris had his 17-game hitting streak snapped last Tuesday
for Oakland High-A affiliate
Stockton, taking an 0-for-4 at
Municipal Stadium against the
San Jose Giants. The Ports leadoff hitter continued his hot streak

games. Harris is currently batting

Lucca said he was informed last
Thursday the game had to be
played.
Its too much for anybody to ask
to play four games in five days at
this level, Lucca said. You just
dont have the pitching to do it. Its
just a fact of life. Its something we
had to do.
With its cache of regular starting
pitching spent through the previous three games a 10-1 win over
Skyline; a 19-7 loss at Ohlone; and
a 4-1 win over Monterey Peninsula
the Colts turned to sophomore
swingman Chris Hau to make his
fourth start of the season.
He has been a little bit better
starting than he has been relieving
for us, Lucca said. Everyone was
really taxed over the last couple
days and he was the freshest guy
that we had available.
Hau worked just one inning in
taking the loss, dropping his
record to 0-3. But the right-hander
was within one strike of retiring
the side in order in the first inning
before the outing went south. With
two outs, he jumped ahead of

with two quick strikes, but then

Miller will change positions in

the pros. Not all were selected
with the idea they will be longterm starters.
Just as Dallas learned last season when Tony Romo was healthy
for all of two games and the
Cowboys fell apart, developing a
dependable (or better) secondstringer is a must. Its fair to say
that outside of Goff, Wentz and
Paxton Lynch in the first round,
none of the QBs chosen this year
will be expected to compete, let
alone win, a starting spot.
Not in 2016 and maybe not at
all.
But if the likes of Connor Cook
(Oakland),
Cody
Kessler
(Cleveland)
and
Christian

Hackenberg (Jets) develop into

reliable backups, its a positive
step for those teams.
Despite a totally inconsistent

being a five-star recruit and to his
measurables, not to his on-field
performances in Happy Valley.

the netting in right field for a double.

Chabot went on to load the bases
for Nice, who hit a towering grand
slam to left-center for his first
home run of the day.
The Caada offense answered
right back with three runs in the
bottom of the frame. The Colts had
an opportunity to go large, loading
the bases with no outs against
Chabot starting pitcher Adam
Kimmel. Cleanup hitter Isaac
Feldstein followed with a long
looping single down the right-field
line; but with the forward runners
holding up to see if the ball would
drop in, Feldstein was halfway to
second base before realizing the
forward base was occupied and
Chabot threw behind him for the
first out of the inning.
The Colts scored twice more in
the inning on an RBI single by
Dom Giuliani and a squeeze bunt by
Chris Edwards. But when Robbie
Galvan followed with a sharp single to right field, Giuliani got
thrown out at home plate to end the
inning with Caada trailing 4-3.
At the start we felt like we were
in it and they just hit the ball hard,
Colts center fielder Jacob Martinez
said. You cant do much about it.
And then we just got flat. Being out
in the field for so long, coming
into the dugout, we got flat.
Chabot greeted the Colts
bullpen with two runs in the second, then added seven runs in the
fifth including Nices second
home run of the day and six more
in the sixth, including Nices third

homer. The freshman finished the

day with eight RBIs.
Nice who said the last multihome run game he had was in Little
League came within a few feet of
hitting his fourth home run of the
day in the ninth inning on a fly out
to the wall in left-center.
I hit it well, Nice said. I just
hit it to the wrong part of the yard.
Thats how it goes.
Caada pitchers got into hot
water in the fifth inning by hitting
four consecutive Chabot batters,
running the total of hit batsmen to
seven on the day. Relief pitcher
Nick Moisant, who hit the first
three batters, was warned by the
home-plate umpire following the
second hit-by-pitch of the inning.
On the following pitch, he drilled
sophomore Dan Burschinger with a
fastball, causing Moisant to be
ejected from the game.
Sophomore right-hander Elijah
Saunders entered and hit Nice with
his first pitch of the afternoon.
Lucca said he would have preferred
not to use Saunders, who pitched a
complete game three days previous
against Skyline.
Hes probably the guy whos
going to get the ball (in Tuesdays
playoff opener), Lucca said. So,
we didnt want to have to use him
but, the way the game was going,
we had to run him out there to stop
the bleeding a little bit.

Curry resumes

OAKLAND Stephen Curry has resumed

light shooting without movement on his
injured right knee with the hopes he can get
into scrimmages by later next week, perhaps
in time to be ready for Game 3 of the Warriors
Western Conference semifinals at Portland.
Coach Steve Kerr said before Sundays
Game 1 against the Trail
Blazers that its pretty
slim the reigning MVP
would be ready for Game
2 on Tuesday night at
Oracle Arena.
It just depends how
his week goes, Kerr said
of Currys status for
Steph Curry Saturdays Game 3.
Well just monitor him
and see how it goes and hopefully get him
back at some point. . Its nice to have that
long break between 2 and 3.
Curry sprained the MCL in his knee when
he slipped on a wet spot just before halftime
of a Game 4 win at Houston in the first round
last Sunday. He said Friday he hoped to do
some shooting within a day or two, and that
happened Saturday. He still will have to test
the knee by putting pressure on it and planting on it when he shoots, then in some 5on-5 scrimmages.

some shooting within a day or two, and that
happened Saturday. He still will have to test
the knee by putting pressure on it and
planting on it when he shoots, then in
some 5-on-5 scrimmages.
The Warriors had 38 and 30 assists their previous two games including six quarters
without Curry by generating the kind of
snappy ball movement coach Steve Kerr
called for without Currys playmaking. Then
27 more assists Sunday.
They are an elite team either way, and they
showed that tonight, said Lillard, his voice
hoarse because of a chest cold. Weve just got
to understand theyre a good first-quarter team.
Weve got to be better from the start of the
game.
Curry, dressed in a dark blue blazer and
black shirt, emerged on the bench midway
through the second quarter and received big
cheers during a timeout. He was far less animated this time after picking up teammate
Ian Clark during Wednesdays elimination
of the Houston Rockets. His knee told him
that was a bad idea, but he did resume light

shooting Saturday in hopes of playing

Game 3.
We just got into a good groove Games 4
and 5 against Houston and that carried over,
Kerr said. Our guys have an understanding of
what we are trying to accomplish, how we
have to play without Steph.

Negri and Pew win at Laguna Seca

IMSA brief

Curran gave up first place for his final pit

stop in the No. 31 Action Express Racing
Corvette DP with slightly more than 40
minutes remaining.

MONTEREY Ozz Negri and John Pew

put Michael Shank Racing back into Victory
Lane for the first time since the 2012 Rolex

Westbrook gave the Ford GT team fielded by
Chip Ganassi Racing its first victory Sunday
in the two-hour IMSA WeatherTech
SportsCar Championship race at Mazda

Raceway Laguna Seca.

Negri took the lead in the No. 60 HondaLigier JS P2 shortly after a restart 48 minutes into the race. He pulled away from the
field until his final pit stop of the race with
slightly less than 50 minutes remaining
dropped him briefly back to third in the running order. He retook the lead when Eric

all three in Los Angeles in the first round.

Rinne had helped keep Nashville in the
game long enough to get the equalizer midway through the third. With San Jose leading 1-0, Rinne robbed Nick Spaling with a
pad save on a 2-on-1 with San Jose shorthanded.
A few minutes later, Ekholm got the equalizer when his shot from the high slot got
past a screened Jones to make it 1-1.
The Sharks scored first following an odd
penalty late in the second period. Nashville
defenseman Roman Josi tried to rush off the
ice after a bad line change to avoid a too
many men penalty, but jumped into the
Sharks bench because he couldnt reach his
own in time.
I was trying to change, right when I was
changing, the puck came up to our bench and
came up to me, Josi said. I tried to get off,
but it was too late.
That move shocked the San Jose players
but didnt avoid the penalty and the Sharks
made Nashville pay for the mistake. Early
on the ensuing power play, Brent Burns fired
a point shot on net that Rinne stopped with

his pads. But Couture jumped on the rebound

and knocked it in with 1:24 left for his third
goal of the series.
Burns and the rest of the Sharks had struggled to get shots on net before that with
Nashville blocking five shots by Burns
before he finally got one to Rinne off a
deflection by Pavelski.
Even when they did manage to get shots
through the defense, Rinne was there to stop
them. His best sequence came early in the
second period when Joonas Donskoi slid a
pass to Couture, whose shot from the slot
was stopped by Rinne. Donskoi got the
rebound and appeared to have an empty net
to shoot at but Rinne slid over to make
another save.
The power-play goal by Couture was San
Joses third in its first five chances with the

Keselowski wins
at wild Talladega
By Jenna Fryer
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

TALLADEGA, Ala. Two cars went airborne, 35 were involved in an accident of

some kind, and Danica Patrick had the wind
knocked out of her in a vicious crash into
the wall.
Just another demolition derby at Talladega
Superspeedway.
Brad Keselowski won the crash-fest Sunday
that was dominated by
multiple wrecks that
caused millions of dollars
in damage to race teams. It
was Keselowskis fourth
career win at Talladega and
second victory of the season, and ended Joe Gibbs
Racings streak of four
consecutive victories.
Brad Keselowski Chris Bueschers car
flipped three times in an early crash, and Matt
Kenseth was turned upside down in the waning
laps. In Kenseths accident, Patrick hit hard
into an energy-absorbing wall that that seemed
to buckle upon impact. She appeared shaken
after the hit and hustled out of her burning car.
There were 21- and 12-car accidents in the
final 28 laps. And, as Keselowski crossed
the finish line, another wreck in the back of
the pack punctuated the sloppy day.
NASCARs box score showed 35 of the 40
cars were involved in some sort of accident.
Only 21 of the 40 cars finished on the lead
lap, and 12 cars were ruled out of the race.
Second-place finisher Kyle Busch said he
looked in his rearview mirror at one point and
only saw four cars without some sort of damage
Austin Dillon finished third and said he
enjoyed the race, even though it was nerveracking. Dillon was in his own horrific
crash at Daytona last July and said the style
of racing at restrictor-plate tracks creates an
atmosphere of danger.

could come back before the board sometime
in May for further consideration.
Its pretty urgent we address this, because
there is a lot of planning that needs to be
done for a big measure, he said.
Measure A, the districts existing $180
per parcel tax passed by voters in 2010, is
set to expire June 2017.
Should officials wish to put the extension
on the upcoming fall election ballot, the
board would need to grant approval to go to
voters in August.

Brian Godbe during the board meeting last
week, perks can be associated with putting

into laws that then make other people support those causes, Webster said.
Hill, a longtime politician who formerly
served on the San Mateo City Council,
county Board of Supervisors and in the
Assembly, said he remains committed to
representing his constituents and prefers to
focus on policy not politics.
Im accessible, I work hard, I listen and I
think what I have is a sense of the district,
Hill said. I try to represent [constituents]
views in Sacramento and frankly, Ive
always considered myself an average guy.
So I look at the issues like an average person and I take on these issues and personalize them.

Housing costs
Webster said hes concerned government
is taking away the sovereignty of the individual. If anything, officials should alleviate restrictions on things like maximum
occupancy to allow more people to live in a
single home where they can share expenses.
When asked what kind of solutions there
might be, he suggested getting government out of the way. I think basically
that your free market is actually going to try
to adapt. For example, basically you have a

presidential election, such as enhanced

voter turnout and granting an adequate buffer
before the revenue stream expires to pursue
the measure again on a subsequent ballot,
should the initial attempt to gather support
prove unsuccessful.
Godbe identified other elections in
February and May next year which the board
should consider appealing, but dates in
March and June next year are less desirable,
as voter turnout should be low, according to
Godbes presentation.
The board would need to approve putting
the tax on the ballot three months before
the selected election.
The district has had a parcel tax in place
since 1991, and voters agreed to hike the
value of Measure A by $96 from its previous
amount when it was approved six years
ago.
Coady said there has been no discussion
regarding whether the board would be

interested in hiking the existing parcel

tax amount again when pursuing the
extension.
He added though the districts parcel tax
rate is relatively low, compared to many of
the other nearby districts which lean more
heavily on their community for funding.
As I look around the other districts on
the Peninsula, the high-achieving districts
that we want to emulate have much higher
parcel taxes in there community, he said.
A communitys willingness to financially
support the local school district is integral
in its success, which ultimately can pay
dividends in boosting local property values, he added.
There is correlation between communities willing to contribute and support their
school districts and their consequential
higher performance, the breadth of programs and the overall value they give to
their communities, she said.

The district has periodically struggled in

recent years to rally voter support for tax
measures, as Measure A just barely passed
the threshold required for approval. Voters
approved Measure X, a facilities bond, in
the most recent election after shooting
down Measure P in 2013.
Parcel taxes support classroom programming, and the revenue can be used to pay
educators and support staff while bonds may
only pay toward improving infrastructure.
Coady said he considered the parcel tax
essential, as the measure finances a variety
of integral services the district would not be
able to afford from its limited budget, which
is still recovering to state funding levels
enjoyed previous to the Great Recession.
In order for us to maintain some of the
programs and frankly be able to afford to
pay our educators and administrators, we
have to have a parcel tax that supports us,
he said.

housing.
In contrast, Hill said a main problem is
that the state hasnt equipped local governments with a replacement for redevelopment agencies. Hes in favor of a legislative
proposal to allocate state funding for affordable housing needs and a main challenge for
his district is others arent as sympathetic
to the local needs due to the amount of
wealth in the region.
The
conversation
is
spreading
statewide, Hill said with some optimism.
The housing problem and the lack of a
solution is probably the biggest concern I
hear more than anything in the area.

But when it comes to the Legislature making progress on the $80 billion comprehensive transportation funding package thats
been debated for more than a year, Hill said
hes not sure it can muster the two-thirds
vote needed to pass.
Thats the political reality. The will is
there, the numbers are there, the solutions
are there; its getting the votes thats the
problem, Hill said.
Webster said he didnt have any strong
thoughts on local transportation issues in
the county. But in an email regarding highspeed rail, he emphasized his views against
government overstepping.
When the free market takes on something it only does it if there is a profit
incentive. When government does something it is at a loss and will subsidize it long
into the future, Webster wrote.

accept the title of victim, then the courts

shouldnt proceed with a criminal case.
He also noted that the state has a conflict
of interest in being involved with schools
and how theyre funded. That, he said,
allows it to indoctrinate students into
believing government is needed in more
aspects of society than it actually is.
As a Libertarian activist, really actually
knowing how the free market is supposed to
work and how government is interfering,
thats the different approach that I look at,
Webster said.
Hill said hes not afraid to take on a robust
package of legislation every year and is
often inspired to create new laws based on
conversations with constituents. He admitted to becoming angry over inequality or
corruption, such as with the California
Public Utilities Commissions lack of oversight of Pacific Gas and Electric.
He listed a variety of legislation inspired
by constituents from trying to reduce fines
for drivers who make a right turn on a red
light, to ensuring patients are notified if a
doctor is on probation.
We take on some tough issues, Hill
said, adding he strives to keep a level and
balanced approach. And to balance the different interests we have on the Peninsula, as
well as in Sacramento.

Transportation
Hill said hes committed to seeing
Caltrain electrification through and advocated for regulations requiring high-speed
rail to contribute to the local project. If
need be, Hill suggested the state should consider allocating cap-and-trade revenue to fill
its current funding gap or in case theres a
delay in receiving funds from high-speed
rail. He also noted the importance of grade
separations as a critical aspect to the success of electrification and high-speed rail.
For drivers relying on state infrastructure,
Hill said the devastating cuts to the states
gas tax revenue which is an estimated
$754 million over the next five years
must be addressed. He would support either
restoring the tax formula to before it was cut
or increasing gas taxes. He also supports an
annual fee for electric vehicles and possibly
increasing vehicle registration fees.

Priorities and objectives

Webster said one of his first pieces of legislation would be to require those who the
courts automatically label as victims
such as minors or those whove been
involved in human trafficking to first
identify themselves as such. For example,
he referenced a 14-year-old male student
who has a relationship with a female
teacher. If the juvenile student doesnt

GOP
Continued from page 1
The uncommon chance to sway the elections outcome permeated many discussions
throughout the convention, as voters,
donors, delegates, undecideds and others
relished their newfound relevancy.
Its really a special time, said Greg
Conlon, an Atherton resident and candidate
seeking to supplant U. S. Sen. Barbara
Boxer, who is set to retire at the end of her
term.
Conlon said he believed the most recent
convention is the first time since 1964,
when Barry Goldwater defeated Norman
Rockwell, that California has mattered in
the national conservative conversation.
Buck Johns, a resident of Orange County
and veteran of numerous Republican conventions, echoed those sentiments.
Its exciting, he said. We are making
national news.
A portion of the focus and attention was
likely generated by the states atypical pertinence in the Republican race, another

CRUZ
Continued from page 1
ventional nature of Trumps visit to
San Mateo County, which featured several hundred protesters raging against
the real estate mogul and front-runner
for Republican nomination, throngs
of committed fans enthusiastically
received Cruz during his nearly 30
minute speech.
Following an introduction, and
endorsement, from former California
governor Pete Wilson, Cruz spent a
majority of his time attempting to
position himself as the candidate who
most closely identifies with the core
values of the Republican party.
The need for economic deregulation,
immigration policy reform, enhanced
national security and unification of
party support behind Cruz were among
the issues addressed before a crowd of
conservatives unfamiliar with the
opportunity to shape the future of their
party.
California is going to decide this
Republican primary. Who wouldve
thunk it? asked Cruz rhetorically to a
reception of laughter and applause
from the lunchtime diners in the hotel
banquet room.
The states mass of treasured delegates have been equally coveted by all
Republican presidential candidates, in
the weeks leading up to Californias
primary election Tuesday, June 7.
Cruzs connection to the state, and

could be attributed to the presence of Trump,

the turgid former reality television star currently holding a firm grasp on the lead
toward nomination.
Trumps appearance to kick off the event
was waylaid by several hundred protesters
trying to fend off his arrival by blocking
nearby roadways, which led to a clash with
the sizable law enforcement team comprised
of Burlingame police, and officers of other
departments from across San Mateo County.
Some protesters chanted, waved flags,
hoisted signs, threw eggs while hurling
insults at police, Trump and his Republican
cohorts, among other efforts, but were ultimately unsuccessful in preventing the presidential hopeful from addressing his audience.
Trump was inconvenienced though, as he
was forced to traverse around a traffic barrier
on nearby Highway 101, where his motorcade parked, through a dusty and grassy narrow walkway onto the hotel property and
into a backdoor building entrance.
The bizarre scene, broadcast live by camera crews posted in helicopters hovering
overhead, set a peculiar tone which presided
over much of Trumps brief trip to San
Mateo County.

specifically Silicon Valley, was bolstered just days before the convention
began when he selected Carly Fiorina,
former CEO of Palo Altos HewlettPackard, as his running mate.
In one of his more pointed moments,
Cruz expressed certainty that his selection of Fiorina as vice president would
intimidate the opponent he is likely to
face during the fall general election,
should he overcome Trumps sizable
lead and serve as the partys presidential nominee.
Carly terrifies Hillary Clinton,
said Cruz.
Fiorina, who in February dropped
her own quest to seek nomination as
the Republican presidential candidate,
wrapped up the conventions headlining addresses Saturday night with a
dinner speech in favor of Cruzs campaign.
Though Cruz spared a few words
snarling in the general direction of his
opponents on either ticket, much of
his time was dedicated toward trying to
situate himself as a principled conservative and the candidate best suited to
carry on the legacy of Republican idol
Ronald Reagan.
As Barack Obama prepares to leave
the Oval Office, the country is reeling
in the same way it was when Jimmy
Carter was president, according to Cruz
who said he is prepared to be this generations version of Reagan the
staunch right-winger ready to lead the
countrys recovery.
But echoing a desire expressed frequently by all the presidential candidates throughout the convention week-

THE DAILY JOURNAL

Red, white and blue cowboy hats adorned

with blinking holiday lights, a powder blue
suit matched with a red Make America Great
Again cap and a homemade shirt declaring
Latinos for the wall were only a few of the
distinct apparel choices present in the audience during Trumps speech.
Its a circus, said Conlon, in the
moments leading up to Trumps speech,
which started nearly 45 minutes later than
expected.
Despite all the Trump-centric fanfare on
the conventions opening day, material
promoting his campaign was nearly absent
from the rest of the convention, notable to
some considering his sizable lead in the
race for nomination.
Stickers, signs and shirts promoting Cruz
were plastered throughout the hotels common areas, and volunteers supporting the
Texas senator were quick to attempt to spark
a conversation espousing the virtue of their
candidates campaign.
Colleen Waugh, a resident of Butte
County and volunteer for the Trump campaign, said she found the conventions prevailing promotional decor unbalanced and
off-putting.
Its overwhelming. You cannot walk five

end, Cruz called for the unified support

of the Republican party to bless his bid.
If we unite we will win this primary,
we will win the general, we will beat
Hillary Clinton and we will turn this
country around, he said, in preparation to leave the stage to a standing
ovation from an audience which featured some members wearing stark red
shirts or stickers declaring their support for Cruz.
Following the speech, in a hotel
lobby plastered with Cruz campaign
signs, those who enjoyed the speech
expressed giddy enthusiasm.
Cruz gave a clear and precise
vision, said Marsha Maffia, of Scotts
Valley.
Maffia, who previously had considered herself a Trump supporter, said
following the Cruz address she was
prepared to switch her allegiance.
Noting the vitality of the coordinated effort throughout the convention to
support Cruz, Maffia said she was
impressed by the senators qualities as
a leader.
If he can organize a campaign like
this, what could he do for our country?
This guy is good, she said.
Nikita Kostyuk, 21, described the
opportunity to see Cruz speak in person for the first time as surreal.
Kostyuk said he considers Cruz the
most trustworthy of all the candidates,
and best served to follow through with
the promises made on the campaign
trail.
I appreciate that he has solid principles, said Kostyuk. I can count on
him to do what he says.

feet without a Cruz volunteer wanting to

talk to you, she said. Its overkill.
But as California Republicans continue to
come to grips with their unfamiliar placement at the center of their partys focus,
some are optimistic this potentially pivotal time will serve as a catalyst to draw in
more supporters.
Luke Bauman, a Cruz supporter, said he
believed his preferred candidate has the
broad appeal needed to mobilize a younger
generation of voters, who could grow to
become active in the party.
I hope it spreads from this, said
Bauman, 21. It will be interesting to see
how it goes.
Whether the party is able to parlay the
moment into a movement remains to be
seen, but as the convention rolled through
town, others simply took the opportunity
to sit back and enjoy the spectacle of it all.
Simon Watson, a political science major
enrolled at Shasta College in Redding, was
one of those would could not pass on spending a weekend enjoying the unique event.
If you are interested in politics, or if you
want to go down a political path, or if you
just enjoy it, you have kind of got to go,
he said.
