Teacher housing study gets OK

High school district officials target Crestmoor, Mills for proposed project
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

An affordable housing project

proposed for teachers and other
faculty in the San Mateo Union
High School District plodded
ahead, under a green light granted
by officials to further explore the
initiative.

The district Board of Trustees

expressed the most interest in pursuing an opportunity to develop
workforce housing at Mills High
School in Millbrae and the
Crestmoor campus in San Bruno,
during a meeting Thursday, May
12.
Under the boards unanimous
direction, officials will return in

the fall with a more detailed plan

laying out the next steps and
financing methods necessary to
bring the vision of building
affordable faculty housing to
fruition.
Trustee Greg Land said he
believed the proposal had merit,
and that it could be a valuable
resource to the district in an effort

to attract and retain talented educators and workers.

Land, a principal in the Los
Altos School District, noted the
escalating cost of living throughout San Mateo County, and the difficulty that posed to school districts seeking qualified staffers.
There is a definite crisis on the
Peninsula to hire teachers. It is

getting harder and harder when the

economy is good to hire decent
teachers, and it is going to continue, he said.
Land said he supported a recommendation to spend the summer
months researching the feasibility of building a housing develop-

ll are invited to the old-fashioned

Memorial Day ceremonies at
Redwood Citys Union Cemetery, a
final resting place that dates back to 1859,
but be sure to watch out for flying anvils.
Flying what?
The fine art of anvil firing, which the fraternal group E Clampus Vitus demonstrates
every Memorial Day at the cemetery off
Woodside Road, was used as a primitive,
but very effective form of communications
during Californias Gold Rush days, according to the groups website. Some accounts
claim anvil firing goes all the way back to
Elizabethan England when it warned the
coastside about the approach of the Spanish
Armada. In the firing, one anvil is placed on
top of another, a small charge of black powder is inserted between them and ignited,
sending the upper anvil flying. This is followed by members of the group, usually clad
in the red shirts and black pants associated
with 49er prospectors, shouting their hallmark yell of Satisfactory.
Histories say the deafening sound echoed
through the remote mining camps that dotted hills and canyons, signaling a mine
cave-in, fire or other danger. It was also used
to summon miners to social events such as
weddings. Today, Redwood City is one of
the few places one can see and hear the firing of the anvil. For the timid, or those who
are afraid the event might set off car alarms,
which does happen sometimes, go to
YouTube where the Memorial Day ceremony
can be seen. Seriously, while the firing is
loud the area is cleared and safe.
The annual May 30 event at Union
Cemetery draws hundreds of spectators,
including many children who get free ice
cream. In addition, docents take visitors on
tours of the historic cemetery that was the
subject of Californias first cemetery legislation. Youngsters place flowers on the
graves of Union soldiers from the Civil War
who are buried in the Grand Army of the
Republic plot that is watched over by a statue of a solider standing at parade rest with a
rifle in his hands. The statue was destroyed

San Carlos officials mull open space purchase

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT

City settles with owner over zoning changes

A hillside parcel of land San

Carlos rezoned from residential to
open space in 2011 is being eyed
for purchase by the city to preserve as open space.
The city settled with property
owner Gail Cannis, a Menlo Park
resident, who sued the city over
changing the zoning without letting her know.
The Planning Commission will
decide whether to recommend to
the City Council that the city purchase the .7-acre parcel located to
the south of Crestview Drive and

in between La Mesa and Edmond

drives in the Palomar Park neighborhood at its May 16 meeting.
The
tentative
settlement
requires the city to deliver a marketable title for the lot in
exchange for a $150,000 payment
to Cannis, a trustee in the Cannis
Family Trust.
When Cannis and her husband
bought the property in 1977, it
was zoned as a buildable residential lot.
In 2013, Cannis intended to sell
the lot to a developer for

$950,000, according to the lawsuit she filed in 2014.

The sale fell through, however,
after Cannis learned from the city
that the lot was rezoned as open
space in 2011.
Rezoning the parcel deprived
plaintiff of all or substantially all
reasonable economic use of the
subject property, according to
the lawsuit.
Cannis had sought to have the
land rezoned residential but the
city denied the request, according
to the lawsuit.

Zoning until 2011 was residential and inconsistent with the

General Plan, according to the
city.
The lawsuit claimed that the
2010 General Plan amendment and
2011 rezoning were a mistake
and were changed without adequate
notice or explanation.
After settling with Cannis, the
city appraised the property, which
is worth $45,000 as open space
and $275,000 as a developable
parcel, according to a staff report
to the Planning Commission by
Principal Planner Lisa Porras.
The lot is also adjacent to a 2-

acre lot the city owns.

Given the sites proximity to
open space and a planned future
trail, acquisition of this site would
provide the flexibility in planning out precise trail location as
well as open space opportunity
adjacent to the future trail, Porras
wrote in the report.
The report does not reveal, however, what the fiscal impact to the
city might be.
The Planning Commission
meets 7 p.m., Monday, May 16,

Carlos.

How to help principals do a better job? Train their bosses

By Jackie Mader
THE HECHINGER REPORT

OAKLAND Its rare for

school district big-wigs to spend
time in a classroom. But Oakland
is one of a growing number of districts trying to get superintendents out of their offices and reconnected to the kids they serve to
help improve student performance
and close achievement gaps.
By observing lessons and
spending more time with students,
superintendents may be better
informed about challenges in
schools, and better equipped to
support a key figure in education:
school principals.
Aubrey Lane, a middle school
principal in east Oakland, said
having opportunities to brainstorm with Ron Smith the
superintendent with whom he
works has made a huge difference. Lanes schedule is jampacked: He can list more than 30
things hes responsible for on any
given day, from finding healthy
snacks for hungry students to dealing with attendance issues and
reviewing academic data.

So he was especially grateful for

Smiths help walking through the
complexities of the districts new
teacher evaluation system. That
process was really beneficial,
Lane said. I can lean on him in
terms of getting advice.
A strong principal is one of the
most influential factors in
increasing student achievement,
research shows, especially in lowachieving
or
high-poverty
schools. But half of all principals
quit during their third year, and
districts nationwide are trying to
figure out how to better support
them and improve effectiveness.
In Oakland, the district is focusing on training those who directly
supervise principals with the help
of New Leaders. District officials
say training and development for
those in high-level roles have traditionally been neglected
There has to be a focus on helping these folks get better, said
Allen Smith, chief of schools for
the Oakland Unified School
District, referring to his districts
superintendents, many of whom
are former principals. Not just
saying, Because they were really

good principals, they should be

able to lead. That doesnt equate
to results.
A recent visit to Bret Harte
Middle School, known as a learning walk, is a main feature of the
training Oaklands superintendents receive, and represents a level
of guidance and support that has
never before been offered to highlevel administrators in this
Northern California district.

One goal
Dressed in suits and armed with
pens, notebooks, and laptops, the
superintendents had one goal as
they fanned out across the classroom to talk to students: to look
for evidence a geometry lesson
was aligned to the new state math
standards.
They examined work and eavesdropped on kids, then filed out to
huddle in an empty hallway, where
it was their turn to answer questions.
All right. What were kids learning? asked Jaime Aquino, chief
program officer for the nonprofit
New Leaders, who directed the conversation, as the administrators

began poring through their notes.

After the school visits, Aquino
shepherded the superintendents
through a series of exercises.
First, they did pair shares,
teaming up with a partner to talk
about the biggest problems theyd
seen. Then, with the larger group,
they discussed problems they
identified from their classroom
visit.
Kids werent sure what they were
supposed to be doing during an
activity, There was little discussion among students. And the lessons were too general or didnt
reflect the academic standards.
Finally, they went back to their
partners to make a critical decision: How would they guide the
principal to help fix the problems
theyd witnessed?

Survey
A federal survey of principals
during the 2007-08 school year
found they are frequently left to
lead and learn in isolation as
early as their second or third year
on the job. But providing support
for principals can be essential to
improving schools, experts say.

A 2013 survey by the National

Center for Education Statistics
found that principals who receive
professional development are
more likely to remain at their
school and continue working as
principals than those who dont.

Other districts
Thats what first led Oakland
Unified to look at the role of principal supervisors and to partner
with New Leaders, which has
worked with 10 districts to develop principal supervisors, including Cleveland, Los Angeles, and
Bridgeport, Connecticut.
Chief of Schools Smith says the
districts superintendents didnt
initially welcome the training.
There was a little pushback,
Smith said. Why do we have to
do this? This is going to take a
large chunk of our time. We could
be in a school. And now, they
look forward to it.

Schools offer lessons on accommodating transgender students

By Lisa Leff
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO From locker rooms and sex education classes

to dress codes and overnight field
trips, many U.S. public schools
already are balancing the civil
rights of transgender students
with any concerns that classmates, parents and community
members might have.
The U. S. Department of
Education is drawing on those
practices to guide other schools as
they work to comply with the
Obama administrations directive
that transitioning children be
treated consistent with their gender identity.

That has been the policy since

2013 of the Arcadia Unified
School District in Southern
California. As part of a settlement
with the federal departments of
Justice and Education that became
the foundation for the national
mandate issued Friday, students
may use the bathroom, locker
room or wilderness cabin that corresponds with their recognized
gender
outside
school,
Superintendent David Vannasdall
said.
This is absolutely not about a
student on a day-to-day basis saying, Today Im a boy, tomorrow
Im a girl. That has never happened, Vannasdall said. By the
time these students are at a point

where they are asking for our help,

they are presenting in all areas of
their life as that gender.
The administration had warned
schools before Friday that denying transgender students access to
the correct facilities and activities
was illegal under its interpretation
of federal sex discrimination laws.
But the new guidance, for the first
time, offers advice for accommodating the privacy needs of nontransgender youngsters.
Citing guidelines adopted by
Washington, New York, the
District of Columbia and Atherton
High School in Louisville,
Kentucky,
President
Barack
Obamas Education Department
said schools could erect privacy

curtains in changing areas, permit

all students to make use of singlestall restrooms or work out other
case-by-case arrangements as
long as the burden doesnt rest
exclusively on transgender students.
The concerns for right to privacy and safety of children applies
to every single child, including
the transgender child, said
Athertons principal, Thomas
Aberli, who faced community
opposition when he first allowed a
transgender freshman to use the
girls restrooms two years ago.
Since that first student, about a
half-dozen more have come out as
transgender, Aberli said.
Asaf Orr, a lawyer who directs

the Transgender Youth Project

Staff at the National Center for
Lesbian Rights, said the guidance could help temper the transgender rights backlash that the
restroom issue has engendered in
states such as North Carolina by
showing that minority rights and
privacy rights can co-exist if
schools respect all students need
to be comfortable.
At least 13 states and the
District of Columbia prohibit discrimination on the basis of gender
identity in schools. Hundreds of
school districts, from Anchorage,
Alaska, and Tucson, Arizona, to
Fairfax County, Virginia and
Chicago, have adopted similar
protections.

Trump sounding like a Democrat?

By Jill Colvin
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK As he tries to

charm Republicans still skeptical
of his presidential candidacy,
Donald Trump has a challenge: On
several key issues, he sounds an
awful lot like a Democrat.
And on some points of policy,
such as trade and national defense,
the billionaire businessman could
even find himself running to the
left of Hillary Clinton, his likely
Democratic rival in the general
election.
Trump is a classic Republican in
many ways. He rails against environmental and corporate regulations, proposes dramatically

lower tax rates

and holds firm
on opposing
a b o r t i o n
rights. But the
p r e s um p t i v e
GOP nominee
doesnt fit neatly into a tradiDonald Trump tional ideological box.
I think Im running on common sense, he said in a recent
interview with The Associated
Press. I think Im running on
whats right. I dont think in terms
of labels.
Perhaps Trumps clearest break
with Republican orthodoxy is on
trade, which the partys 2012 plat-

form said was crucial for our

economy and a path to more
American jobs, higher wages, and
a better standard of living.
Trump says his views on trade
are not really different from the
rest of his partys, yet he pledges
to rip up existing deals negotiated
by stupid leaders who failed to
put American workers first. He
regularly slams the North
American Free Trade Agreement
involving the U.S, Mexico and
Canada, and opposes a pending
Asia-Pacific pact, positions
shared by Democratic candidate
Bernie Sanders.
The problem is the ideologues,
the very conservative group,
would say everything has to be

totally free trade, Trump said.

But you cant have free trade if
the deals are going to be bad. And
thats what we have.
Trump long has maintained that
he has no plans to scale back
Social Security benefits or raise
its qualifying retirement age. The
position puts him in line with
Clinton.
She has said she would defend
and expand Social Security, has
ruled out a higher retirement age
and opposes reductions in cost-ofliving adjustments or other benefits.
There is tremendous waste,
fraud and abuse, but Im leaving it
the way it is, Trump recently told
Fox Business Network.

Clinton campaigns in Kentucky

By Catherine Lucey
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LOUISVILLE, Ky. Hillary Clinton

is making a big final push in Kentucky
where rival Bernie Sanders hopes to
extend his winning streak and further
delay her clinching the Democratic
presidential nomination.
Big-name surrogates have been dispatched, television ads are playing and
Clinton is touring the state in advance
of Tuesdays voting. On Sunday, the
former secretary of state dropped in at
Louisville churches and had two getout-the-vote rallies on her schedule.
We need a president who will work
every single day to make life better for
American families, Clinton said at a
union training center in Louisville.
We want somebody who can protect
us and work with the rest of the world.
Not talk about building walls, but
building bridges.
While Clinton leads Sanders by
nearly 300 pledged delegates going
into Tuesdays primaries in Kentucky
and Oregon, the Vermont senator continues to win contests and has pledged
to stay in the race until the July con-

vention.
With
Donald Trump set as
the
presumptive
Republican nominee, Clintons team
would like to turn
their attention to
the general election
contest, but they
Hillary Clinton still cant fully
make that shift.
A win in at least one of the two
upcoming contests would give Clinton
momentum heading into the primaries
in California and New Jersey in early
June. Oregon is likely to go for
Sanders, but Clintons campaign
thinks the race is competitive in
Kentucky, where she planned to spend
Sunday and Monday courting voters.
It will be close, but either way, as
with all the contests this month, we
will gain additional delegates and
move that much closer to clinching
the nomination, Clinton spokesman
Brian Fallon said in an email.
Clinton easily won the Kentucky
primary over President Barack Obama
in 2008. But this time she has come
under criticism in parts of the state

after saying in March that were

going to put a lot of coal miners and
coal companies out of business.
Clinton later said she misspoke, but
the comment has drawn fire in mining
communities in West Virginia, Ohio
and Kentucky.
On Sunday in Louisville, Clinton
touted her plan for coal country. She
briefly mentioned Sanders, questioning his support for the auto industry
bailout, but focused most of her fire on
Trump, hitting him for reckless risky
talk and calling him a loose cannon.
High-profile advocates campaigning for Clinton in Kentucky include
Virginia Sen. Tim Kaine, former
Pennsylvania Gov. Ed Rendell and
Reps. James Clyburn of South
Carolina, G.K. Butterfield of North
Carolina, Sheila Jackson Lee of Texas
and Hakeem Jeffries and Joe Crowley
of New York.
Clinton is spending about $325,000
on Kentucky ads. Sanders, after seeing
her reserve airtime, followed behind
with $126,000 in ads, according to
advertising tracker Kantar Medias
CMAG.

Its a stance at odds with the

countrys top-ranked elected
Republican, House Speaker Paul
Ryan of Wisconsin, who has
advocated fundamental changes to
Social Security and other entitlement programs. But its also one
that Trump argues keeps him in
line with the wishes of most voters.
Remember the wheelchair
being pushed over the cliff when
you had Ryan chosen as your vice
president? Trump told South
Carolina voters this year, referring to then-vice presidential candidate Ryans budget plan. That
was the end of that campaign.
Ryan was Mitt Romneys running
mate in 2012.

Rebuking Trump,
Obama tells grads
walls wont work
By Josh Lederman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

PISCATAWAY, N.J. President Barack Obama on Sunday

urged college graduates to shun those who want to confront
a rapidly changing world by building walls around the
United States or by embracing ignorance, as he delivered a
sharp and barely concealed critique of Donald Trump.
Obama used his commencement speech at Rutgers
University to illustrate a world view antithetical to the
ideas espoused by the presumptive Republican presidential
nominee. Looking out at a sea of red and black gowns,
Obama told the roughly 12,000 graduating students that the
pace of change on the planet is accelerating, not subsiding,
and that recent history had proved that the toughest challenges cannot be solved in isolation.
A wall wont stop that, Obama said, bringing to mind
Trumps call for building a border wall between the U.S. and
Mexico. The point is, to help ourselves, weve got to help
others not pull up the drawbridge and try to keep the
world out.
The president never mentioned Trump by name, but his
intended target seemed clear. Repeatedly, Obama referred to
disparaging comments about Muslims and immigrants, and
opposition to free trade deals. But he appeared most
incensed by what he described as a rejection of facts, science and intellectualism that he said was pervading politics.
In politics and in life, ignorance is not a virtue, Obama
said. Its not cool to not know what youre talking about.
Thats not keeping it real or telling it like it is. Thats not
challenging political correctness. Thats just not knowing
what youre talking about, the president said.

IS attack leave 29 dead across Iraq

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BAGHDAD The Islamic State

group launched a coordinated
assault Sunday on a natural gas
plant north of Baghdad that killed
at least 14 people, while a string
of other bomb attacks in or close
to the capital killed 15 others,
Iraqi officials said.
The dawn attack on the gas plant
began with a suicide car bombing
at the facilitys main gate in the
town of Taji, about 20 kilometers
(12 miles) north of Baghdad.
Several suicide bombers and militants then broke into the plant and
clashed with security forces. The
dead included six civilians and
eight security forces; 27 troops
were wounded.
The IS-affiliated Aamaq news
agency credited a group of
caliphate soldiers for the attack.
Closed-circuit
television
images showed as an explosion
hit inside the facility. As flames

engulfed the facility and nearby

palm trees, pedestrians were seen
running for cover. A crowd gathered to watch as thick black smoke
rose above the plant, sections of
which were left in ruins. The top
of one of the gas-processing units
was blown off.
In a statement, Deputy Oil
Minister Hamid Younis said firefighters managed to control and
extinguish the fire. He said technicians were examining the damage.
Hours after the attack, passers-by
inspecting the damage posed for
cell phone photos in front of the
ruined complex.
Elsewhere, four separate bomb
attacks left another 15 people dead
and 46 wounded in the fifthstraight day of IS-claimed attacks
in and around the Iraqi capital.
Since Wednesday, more than 140
people have been killed in a spate
of bombings in Baghdad and elsewhere.
The wave of attacks comes as

Iraqi ground forces have achieved a

number of key territorial victories
against the extremist group.
Brett McGurk, the Obama
administrations diplomatic point
man in the international fight
against the Islamic State group,
told journalists in Jordan that the
tide was turning against extremists.
This perverse caliphate is
shrinking, said McGurk, a presidential envoy to the 66-member
anti-IS coalition.
In the past month, IS has lost a
swath of key territory along a supply route in Iraqs vast western
Anbar province that the extremists had used to ferry fighters and
supplies between Iraq and Syria.
But after losing territory along the
Euphrates River valley, that line
has been cut, according to Iraqi
and coalition officials.
As the Islamic State militants
are pushed back along front lines,
the group is increasingly turning

Nurse kept working

despite abuse claims
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

DENVER A woman who went to the

hospital with severe abdominal pain on
Christmas Eve 2013 remembered feeling
out of it after getting a dose of morphine.
But as she came to, she realized her hospital
gown was open and a male nurse was touching and kissing her.
The woman said she lay still, seemingly
frozen. She says when she was discharged,
her nurse, Thomas Mark Moore, told her
Ill find you Sweetie.
She told nobody, even when Moore sent
her a Facebook friend request days later. A
year and half after her discharge from Poudre
Valley Hospital, she reported Moore to
police in Fort Collins, an hour north of
Denver.
That report in August set off an investigation that turned up eight other women who
alleged that Moore, 43, had fondled, groped
or kissed them at hospitals in Colorado and
Nebraska over a two-year period, according
to court documents.
Moores case highlights how easy it can
be for nurses who are fired or forced out of
their jobs over alleged misconduct to find
work elsewhere, in part because some states
Colorado is among a handful dont
require hospitals to report nursing law violations to regulators. Colorados nursing
board also doesnt have the power to conduct criminal background checks for license
applicants.
The hospitals apparently knew about

some alleged misconduct by Moore. He was

terminated from three hospitals before he
was arrested and a Nebraska hospital reported an unspecified incident involving him in
2013 that never led to charges. But without
any prosecution pending, it doesnt seem
that they shared the information with other
facilities.
He also held nursing licenses in Alaska
and Wyoming.
Lawyers representing Moore, who is due
back in court Monday on some of the allegations, did not return telephone calls seeking comment.
Telephone numbers for his home and for
possible relatives have been disconnected,
and he did not respond to a letter sent to him
in jail.
The Associated Press generally does not
name victims of alleged sexual abuse.
Brie Akins, executive director of the
Colorado Coalition Against Sexual Assault,
said sex offenders often go undetected
because most victims dont go to authorities because they dont want to be subjected
to scrutiny and they may blame themselves
for what happened.
There is still a lot of shame around that,
she said.
In Moores case, Akins said, some of the
women also may have wondered whether
they would be believed since they were
under the influence of painkillers.
But even when the patients risked speaking out and authorities were notified, nothing happened.

to insurgency-style terrorist
attacks to detract from their losses, the officials said.
However, despite battlefield successes against IS, Iraqs political
leadership is in disarray as a deepening political crisis has gridlocked government. Parliament
has not met for more than two
weeks after supporters of influential Shiite cleric Muqtada al-Sadr
stormed Baghdads highly fortified Green Zone.
The breach followed repeated
delays to government reform legislation that lawmakers claimed
would fight Iraqs entrenched corruption.
Its possible that some of the
political unrest in Baghdad has led
(the Islamic State group) to think
that they can somehow stir up
more chaos than usual, said
Nathaniel Rabkin, managing editor of Inside Iraqi Politics, a political risk assessment newsletter.
ISIS hopes that somehow if

they just keep up the pressure, the

Iraqi government will at best collapse or at least become incapable
of pursuing a cohesive approach
to fighting the extremists ,
Rabkin said, using an alternative
acronym for IS.
While the U. S. -led coalition
acknowledges the planning phase
of Iraqi military operations
against the Islamic State group
has been slowed by political
unrest, Rabkin says there is no
evidence the IS terrorist attacks
have had a direct impact on the
military campaign against the
extremists.
Besides the assault on the gas
plant, Sundays attacks included a
car bomb at a shopping area in the
town of Latifiyah, about 20 miles
(30 kilometers) south of the capital, that killed seven people,
including two soldier, officials
said. Eighteen people were wounded in the attack, four of whom were
soldiers.

John Kerry in Saudi Arabia for

talks on Syria, Libya and Yemen
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

JEDDAH, Saudi Arabia (AP) U. S.

Secretary of State John Kerry met Sunday
with Saudi Arabias King Salman for talks
on the conflicts in Syria, Libya and Yemen
ahead of larger meetings on those crises in
Europe this week.
Kerry was also scheduled to meet Saudi
Arabias crown prince, deputy crown prince
and foreign minister. His visit comes at a
critical time in efforts to rein in fighting
and encourage political dialogue in all three
countries that have been wracked by violence for years.
Kerry is trying to shore up the shaky truce
in Syria, which has been fraught with violations on both sides. While the U.S. and its
partners accuse the government of the vast
majority of breaches, they have also

acknowledged violations by the opposition.

The situation has been further complicated by the intermingling of some western
and Arab-backed rebels with groups such as
the al-Qaida affiliate, known as the Nusra
Front, which the U.N. has designated a terrorist organization and therefore not covered by the truce. Saudi Arabia and the U.S.
have rejected attempts by Russia to get
those rebels placed on the U.N. terrorist
list.
Kerry travels later Sunday to Vienna where
he will co-host group talks on Libya with
Italys foreign minister and then on Syria
with his Russian counterpart.
He will then visit Brussels for a meeting
of NATO foreign ministers before flying on
to Asia to meet President Barack Obama in
Vietnam.

Brazils road ahead filled with challenges

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAO PAULO To say that

Michel Temer faces huge challenges would be an understatement.
Brazils 75-year-old acting president must fight the Zika virus,
which can cause birth defects and
has ravaged thousands of families
in poor northeastern states. He
must rescue Latin Americas
largest economy from its worst
recession since the 1930s, most
likely by making painful and
protest-invoking cuts to the
pension system and social welfare
spending.
He must win back the trust of a
populace that has come to believe
virtually all politicians, including
him, are lining their pockets with
taxpayer money.
And he must begin these gargantuan tasks with the Summer
Olympics just months away and
while his predecessor and formerally-turned
enemy,
Dilma
Rousseff, is living in the presidential residence and rallying supporters around assertions she was
the victim of a coup led by Temer.

This is going to be a real mess.

The combination of all these factors at once is unbelievable, said
Alexandre Barros, a Brasilia-based
consultant. Everybody is unhappy with the situation but nobody
knows what to do.
For the sake of the nations 200
million people, and for all the
South American nations whose
fortunes are tied to Brazils powerhouse economy, one hopes that
Temer does know what to do.
The career politician, who is
married to a 32-year-old former
beauty pageant contestant, took
office on Thursday just hours after
the Senate voted to impeach
Rousseff for allegedly using illegal accounting tricks to hide
deficits in the federal budget.
Rousseff insists she has done
nothing wrong, and vows to fight
as the Senate holds a trial, a
process that can take up to six
months.
If the Senate votes to remove
Rousseff, as is likely, Temer would
complete her term that goes
through 2018.
Temer is getting early kudos for
one Cabinet choice: Finance

M i n i s t e r
He n r i que
Meirelles
is
widely respected for serving
as
Central
Bank chief during the boom
years
from
Michel Temer 2003 to 2010.
Meirelles
quickly signaled that hell push to
revamp labor laws to increase productivity and reform a pension
system known for generous payouts and early retirement; many
public workers can retire between
their early and mid-50s.
Actually pulling that off will be
very difficult. Many lawmakers in
Congress rallied around the idea of
ousting Rousseff, but building
consensus around unpopular
reforms could prove elusive. Still,
the ongoing crisis combined with
the reality that there will be no
near-term rebound in the prices of
commodities, Brazils lifeblood,
could be strong incentives for
change.
Analysts also believe that
Temer, who has said he wont run

for president in 2018, will be

thinking about his legacy. This
could be Temers last stint in any
office: He was recently found
guilty of violating campaign
finance laws, a decision that
makes him ineligible to run for
office for eight years, pending
likely appeals.
If Temer gets the ball rolling
on major reforms, this would take
him to the level of statesman,
said Marcos Troyjo, a professor at
Columbia Universitys School of
International and Public Affairs.
Aside from Meirelles, however,
Temer is already coming under
sharp criticism for the rest of his
Cabinet, which is widely criticized as an example of vast
inequality in a nation that is predominantly non-white.
Temers entire Cabinet is made
up of white men, including some
with very thin resumes and others
who are under a cloud of corruption
allegations.
Rousseff, the nations first
female president, wasted no time
in making contrasts with her much
more diverse outgoing Cabinet.
I think gender questions are a

question of democracy in a country

where the majority, more than 50
percent, are women, she said
Friday, the first day of Temers
government.
Noting that her nation was the
last in the Americas to outlaw
slavery, in 1888, she added: Here
in Brazil, discrimination has a
face: Its black, woman and child.
One of Temers biggest challenges, if not a direct threat to his
presidency, is the so-called Car
Wash probe. Led by judge Sergio
Moro, investigators uncovered a
multi-billion dollar kickback
scheme centered on the state oil
company Petrobras that has
astonished even a populous long
inured to political graft. In two
years, dozens of the countrys
elites have been ensnared, from
top lawmakers to businessmen.
Former House Speaker Eduardo
Cunha, a member of Temers
Democratic Movement Party and
the architect of the impeachment
push against Rousseff, is facing
charges related to the probe. The
Supreme Federal Tribunal, the
countrys highest court, recently
removed Cunha from office.

Maoists still a force 50 years after the Cultural Revolution

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LUOYANG, China Fifty years after

Mao Zedong unleashed the decade-long
Cultural Revolution to reassert his authority and revive his radical communist agenda,
the spirit of modern Chinas founder still
exerts a powerful pull.
Millions of people were persecuted, publicly humiliated, beaten or killed during the

upheaval, as zealous factionalism metastasized countrywide, tearing apart Chinese

society at a most basic level.
Student groups tortured their own teachers, and children were made to watch mobs
beat their own parents condemned as counter-revolutionaries. Gangs engaging in
armed struggle killed at least a half million people while countless more committed suicide, unable to cope with relentless
Advertisement

persecution. It was only in 1981 five

years after Maos death that Chinas government officially pronounced the Cultural
Revolution a catastrophe.
But in the ancient city of Luoyang, the
old, the poor and the marginalized gather
daily in the main public square to profess
nostalgia for the political movement,
downplaying that periods violent excesses. In the marble halls of power in Beijing,
Cultural Revolution-era song-and-dance
performances are being revived. Chinas
liberals see ominous signs of a society
tugged backward by ideological currents.
Either its because people have forgotten
the Cultural Revolution or are increasingly
dissatisfied with social conditions, but
since the mid-1990s these kinds of ideas

have been gaining currency, said Xu

Youyu, a former Chinese Academy of Social
Sciences researcher.
Maoists long for China to reverse its path
toward market capitalism and return to
Maos radical vision of a classless society
steered by a powerful and ideologically pure
leader. They have largely embraced
President Xi Jinping as one of their own,
though he has never endorsed their views
outright, and the nuances of his personal
ideology especially on economic matters remain a cipher. Many see encouraging echoes of Maos political style in Xis
crusade against corrupt party bureaucrats,
and in his staunchly populist rhetoric,
nationalistic bent and repeated demands for
ideological conformity.

Obamas upcoming visit to Hiroshima

Other voices

The New York Times

resident Obama added a couple

of rsts to his list of achievements when he became the
rst sitting president to visit
Myanmar in 2012 and to visit Cuba in
modern times. He will add another at
the end of this month when he visits
Hiroshima in conjunction with the
Group of 7 leaders meeting in Japan.
Though the White House is playing
down expectations, the visit gives
him a signicant opportunity to offer
some tangible new initiatives to
advance his vision of a nuclear-free
world a major goal at the outset of
his administration that has since
faded against a host of other foreign
policy challenges.
Although American ambassadors,
John Roos and Caroline Kennedy,
have visited Hiroshima in recent
years, and Secretary of State John
Kerry did so last month, senior
American ofcials have largely avoided the war memorial for the 200,000
people who lost their lives in the two
nuclear attacks on Hiroshima and
Nagasaki that ended the war in the
Pacic. Given the 70-year alliance
between Japan and the United States
that has ourished since the end of the
war, Mr. Obamas decision to visit the
memorial seems well overdue.

Yet it was arrived at only after an

intense monthslong debate within the
administration. Some ofcials were
concerned that such an appearance
would be interpreted as an apology for
Americas wartime actions and further
iname this years presidential election. During Mr. Obamas rst year in
ofce, his critics unfairly accused him
of making an apology tour when he
traveled to the Middle East and Europe
in an effort to reset relationships that
had deteriorated during the Bush
administration.
News reports have said that most
Japanese are not looking for an apology, and Mr. Obama is not planning
to offer any. Instead, according to one
senior ofcial, he will offer a forward-looking vision focused on our
shared future.
Japan and the United States have
much to celebrate. The alliance constructed from the ashes of devastation
and war has helped keep the peace in
Asia. The two countries continue to
work together on development and
security projects in other parts of the
world as well.
Though he has fallen well short of
his lofty aim of a world without
nuclear weapons announced in 2009,
Mr. Obama can justly claim important

achievements. Among these are the

2015 nuclear deal that seeks to prevent Iran from developing a nuclear
weapon, and the 2010 New Start
Treaty mandating cuts in the number
of strategic warheads deployed by the
United States and Russia to 1,550
warheads each.
One big obstacle to further progress
has been Russias increasingly
aggressive president, Vladimir Putin,
who has opposed more arms reduction. Other impediments include a
Senate that refuses to ratify the
Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty, and
Pakistan, which has blocked negotiations on a treaty to halt production of
ssile material.
Mr. Obamas missteps have made
his goal harder to achieve. Nothing is
more at odds with his vision than his
befuddling support for a $1 trillion
program to rebuild the American arsenal over the next 30 years. But there
are still opportunities to improve his
credibility small steps like canceling the new air-launched, nucleararmed cruise missile and persuading
the United Nations Security Council
to endorse the nuclear test moratorium
that all countries but North Korea
observe. Perhaps, too, in his visit to
Hiroshima, a strong speech and even
a new initiative.

Proposed changes to parking
requirements for remodels
Editor,
Parking in some Belmont neighborhoods, with narrow, winding
streets, is already a challenge and
often dangerous for pedestrians, bicyclists and cars; but it could get a
whole lot worse if the proposed relaxations of parking requirements are
approved by the City Council.
Yet, there are solutions to the current remodeling restrictions for
homes with a one-car garage or no
garage at all that do not sacrice public safety and neighborhood character. They include eliminating one of
the restrictions altogether, changing
the width of a driveway and allowing
parking pads in front of homes. More

Trumps lack of
respect for women
Editor,
Republican presidential nominee
Donald Trump has yuuge respect for
women so much respect that he has
married no less than three of them. So
far.
On the other hand, he is critical of
Hillary Clinton for having such low
respect for other women because she
has stuck it out with only a single
husband. Will Republican family values change if Trump, heaven forbid,
should out-campaign the already outdivorced Hillary?

Editor,
To avoid catastrophic climate
change, we need to put a stop to all
new fossil fuel development and
accelerate a just transition to a clean
energy economy. The only way to
achieve this is to keep coal, oil and
gas in the ground. President Obama
has executive authority to direct federal agencies to stop leasing public
fossil fuels, and he should dene his
climate legacy by doing just that.

Dumbarton
rail revived
T

hanks to Facebook, Dumbarton rail is back on life

support. Its tragic it has taken this long. Facebooks
new digs in Menlo Park sit at the edge of the
Dumbarton Bridge where automobile trafc is getting worse
as the number of employees and other commuters grows.
There has been an excellent alternative too long dormant and
now Mark Zuckerberg has provided $1 million for a new feasibility study.
Heres a link for more information:
samtrans.com/Planning/Planning_and_Research/Dumbarton
TransportationCorridorStudy.html.
***
The 20.5-mile Dumbarton
Rail Corridor, or DRC, was
in active rail service since
the turn of the century. Only
a relatively short ve-mile
segment across the San
Francisco Bay has been out
of service since the mid1980s. In 1994, realizing its
potential as the region
began to signicantly grow,
the San Mateo County
Transit District, or
SamTrans, purchased the
right-of-way between
Redwood and Newark junctions from Union Pacic as
an investment for future rail
commuter service.
Dumbarton Rail Service was included as a project in the
Metropolitan Transportation Commissions Blueprint for the
21st century. The DRC project was almost fully funded in
MTCs Transportation 2030 plan which was adopted in
February 2005.
In 2004, voters in Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, San
Francisco, Santa Clara and San Mateo counties passed the
Regional Trafc Relief Plan (Regional Measure 2) which
increased tolls by $1 on the By Areas seven bridges and
raised $125 million annually. The measure was the result of
an earlier MTC-sponsored Bay Crossing study which looked
at the feasibility of adding another bridge across the Bay.
Instead, the study recommended a series of more cost-effective
solutions. One of the top priorities was a new rail system utilizing the old Dumbarton rail bridge, which would connect
the Peninsula to the East Bay without adding automobile trafc to Highway 101 or the Nimitz Freeway.
What happened? Why did Dumbarton Rail disappear as a
top priority? Why were funds earmarked for this project taken
away and placed in another?
***
Competition for transportation funds is intense at the
national, state and regional levels. A project must go through
a series of feasibility studies, environmental impact reviews
and community input. But what a project needs more than
anything is an advocate and that advocate must be a transit
operator backed by public ofcials.
Unfortunately, Dumbarton Rail lost its transit advocate
when Howard Goode retired from a long career at SamTrans,
Caltrain, and the San Mateo County Transportation
Authority. Goode had worked at BART at one time and knew
all the major players at MTC and in the region. By default,
Caltrain had become the projects sponsor but Caltrain had
other more pressing problems. It does not have a permanent
funding source. It is not funded by an ongoing tax. Inside it
relies on the generosity of its three parent agencies, San
Francisco, Santa Clara and San Mateo counties. San
Francisco has other priorities, mainly maintaining Muni bus
service. Santa Clara has shifted its focus to BART to San
Jose. And San Mateo Countys contribution, which came
from SamTrans, was in jeopardy because the bus service was
losing money and because SamTrans had to pay for BARTs
extension to SFO, which was a big money loser in its initial
years.
Money to construct and operate the passenger rail service
was taken away from DRC to help pay for BARTs extension
to Warm Springs in 2014 by MTC. As part of the agreement,
Alameda County agreed to pay back Dumbarton Rail. They
never did. And they never will. Because that agreement was
negated when MTC agreed to help pay for Caltrain electrication. Without a source of funding, EIRs could not go forward
and, without staff and elected ofcial support, Dumbarton rail
remained an unfullled dream. However, some of the toll
money set aside for the project were directed to an AC Transit
express bus service.
***
The new study will examine bike lanes and bus service as
well as rail over the reconstructed bridge. But other than the
Facebook contribution, there are no funds set aside for design
or construction. What a pity.
I hope someone in authority will insist that all of the toll
money commuters pay to drive over the Dumbarton Bridge
(except that necessary for maintenance) will be used to mitigate trafc on that bridge by supporting implementation of
the new study. That was the intent of Regional Measure 2.

Will robot cars drive traffic congestion off a cliff?

By Joan Lowy
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Self-driving
cars are expected to usher in a new
era of mobility, safety and convenience. The problem, say transportation researchers, is that people will use them too much.
Experts foresee robot cars chauffeuring children to school, dance
class and baseball practice. The
disabled and elderly will have new
mobility. Commuters will be able
to work, sleep, eat or watch
movies on the way to the office.
People may stay home more
because they can send their cars to
do things like pick up groceries
theyve ordered online.
Researchers believe the number
of miles driven will skyrocket.
Its less certain whether that will
mean a corresponding surge in
traffic congestion, but its a clear
possibility.
Gary Silberg, an auto industry
expert at accounting firm KPMG,
compares it to the introduction of
smartphones. It will be indispensable to your life, he said. It will
be all sorts of things we cant
even think of today.
Cars that can drive themselves
under limited conditions are
expected to be available within
five to 10 years. Versions able to
navigate under most conditions
may take 10 to 20 years.

Based on focus groups in

Atlanta, Denver and Chicago,
KPMG predicts autonomous
mobility-on-demand services
think Uber and Lyft without a driver will result in double-digit
increases in travel by people in
two age groups: those over 65,
and those 16 to 24.
Vehicles traveled a record 3.1
trillion miles in the U.S. last year.
Increased trips in autonomous cars
by those two age groups would
boost miles traveled by an additional 2 trillion miles annually by
2050, KPMG calculated. If selfdriving cars without passengers
start running errands, the increase
could be double that.
And if people in their middle
years, when driving is at its peak,
also increase their travel, that
yearly total could reach 8 trillion
miles.
This could be massive,
Silberg said.
Driverless cars are expected to
make travel both safer and cheaper. With human error responsible
for 90 percent of traffic accidents,
theyre expected to sharply reduce
accidents, driving down the cost
of insurance and repairs.
But the biggest cost of car travel is drivers time, said Don
MacKenzie, a University of
Washington
transportation
researcher. That cost comes down
dramatically when people can use

their travel time productively on

other tasks.
A study by MacKenzie and other
researchers published in the journal Transportation Research: Part
A estimates that the vehicles can
cut the cost of travel by as much as
80 percent. That in turn drives up
miles traveled by 60 percent.
You are talking about a technology that promises to make
travel safer, cheaper, more convenient. And when you do that,
youd better expect people are
going to do more of it,
MacKenzie said.

Utopia or nightmare
Theres a fork ahead in this driverless road, says a report by
Lauren Isaac, manager of sustainable
transportation
at
WSP/Parsons Brinckerhoff, that
envisions either utopia or a nightmare.
In the best case, congestion is
reduced because driverless cars and
trucks are safer and can travel
faster with reduced space between
them. Highway lanes can be narrower because vehicles wont need
as much margin for error. There
will be fewer accidents to tie up
traffic. But those advantages will
be limited as long as driverless
cars share roads with conventional cars, likely for decades.
But that scenario depends on a
societal shift from private vehicle

ownership to commercial fleets of

driverless cars that can be quickly
summoned with a phone app.
Driverless fleets would have to
become super-efficient carpools,
picking up and dropping off multiple passengers traveling in the
same direction.

Share with strangers

The congestion nightmare
would result if a large share of people cant be persuaded to effectively share robot cars with strangers
and to continue using mass transit, Isaac said.
A study last year by the
International Transport Forum, a
transportation policy think tank,
simulated the impact on traffic in
Lisbon, Portugal, if conventional
cars were replaced with driverless
cars that take either a single passenger at a time or several passengers together.
It found that as long as half of
travel is still carried out by conventional cars, total vehicle miles
traveled will increase from 30 to
90 percent, suggesting that even
widespread sharing of driverless
cars would mean greater congestion for a long time.
Airlines also may face new competition as people choose to travel by car at speeds well over 100
mph between cities a few hundred
miles apart instead of flying.
Transit agencies will need to

rethink their services in order to

stay competitive, especially
because the elimination of a driver
would make car-sharing services
cheaper.
To make the shared-vehicle
model work, government would
have to impose congestion pricing on highways, restrict parking
in urban centers, add more highoccupancy vehicle lanes and take
other measures to discourage people from traveling alone in their
self-driving cars.
Land-use policies may need to
be adjusted to prevent sprawl, or
people will move beyond the
fringes of metropolitan areas for
low-cost housing because they
can work while commuting at high
speeds. Taxes based on the number
of miles a personal vehicle travels
are another way to discourage car
travel.

Difficult to achieve
All these policy changes would
be controversial and difficult to
achieve.
While there are loads of likely
positive impacts for society associated with driverless technology, people are right to worry
about potential for huge increases
in congestion, Issac said.
Without any government influence, she said, human nature is
to get into that single occupancy
vehicle.

Leading local news coverage on the Peninsula

By Don Thompson

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ROCKLIN, Calif. Perry Lutz says his

struggle to survive as a small businessman
became a lot harder after California voters
reduced theft penalties 1 1/2 years ago.
About a half-dozen times this year,
shoplifters have stolen expensive drones or
another of the remote-controlled toys he
sells in HobbyTown USA, a small shop in
Rocklin, northeast of Sacramento. Its just
pretty much open season, Lutz said.
Theyll pick the $800 unit and just grab it
and run out the door.
Anything below $950 keeps the crime a
misdemeanor and likely means the
thieves face no pursuit and no punishment,
say retailers and law enforcement officials.
Large retailers including Safeway, Target,
Rite Aid and CVS pharmacies say shoplifting increased at least 15 percent, and in
some cases, doubled since voters approved
Proposition 47 and ended the possibility of
charging shoplifting as a felony with the
potential for a prison sentence.
Shoplifting reports to the Los Angeles
Police Department jumped by a quarter in
the first year, according to statistics the
department compiled for the Associated
Press. The ballot measure also lowered

penalties for forgery, fraud, petty theft and

drug possession.
Public Policy Institute of California
researcher Magnus Lofstrom noted a troubling increase in property crime in
Californias largest cities in the first halfyear after Proposition 47 took effect.
Preliminary FBI crime reports show a 12
percent jump in larceny-theft, which
includes shoplifting, but he said it is too
early to determine what, if any, increase is
due to the ballot measure.
The increase in shoplifting reports set up
a debate over how much criminals pay attention to penalties, and whether law enforcement is doing enough to adapt to the legal
change.
Prosecutors, police and retailers, including California Retailers Association
President Bill Dombrowski and CVS Health
spokesman Mike DeAngelis, say the problem is organized retail theft rings whose
members are well aware of the reduced penalties.
The law didnt account for that, said
Capt. John Romero, commander of the
LAPDs commercial crimes division. It did
not give an exception for organized retail
theft, so were seeing these offenders benefiting and the retailers are paying the
price.

after her second-inning home run in CSMs 6-4 win over Sierra.
Last season, the Bulldogs advanced

further than any team in program history, coming within one game of a
state title, falling in the title game to
state-champ Palomar. This year, CSM
head coach Nicole Borg is looking to
take her team one step further at the
state tourney beginning Friday at
Bakersfield College to bring the
programs first-ever state crown.
I think the good thing for this program and this coaching staff is its not
our first rodeo, Borg said. This is our
fourth year in a row. So, weve learned
from our mistakes as coaches and hope-

fully we make the small adjustments we

need to to get over the hump.
Sophomore Christy Peterson was a

all aspects of the game. Through
three wins including a 21-0 triumph over Cabrillo in Fridays opener; and a grueling 4-3 walk-off win in

Sharks sunk in Game 1

By R.B. Fallstrom

ST. LOUIS Once again, Brian Elliott was

the star of the show. His latest performance
gave his St. Louis Blues teammates plenty of
comfort knowing he had their back.
When your goalie is your best player, it
gives you a great chance of winning, and that
was the case, captain David Backes said after
the Blues opened their first Western
Conference final in 15 years with a tense 2-1
victory over the San Jose Sharks on Sunday
night.
It was that way for the first two rounds,
Backes added, and nothings changed in
Game 1 of the third round.
Backes opened the scoring and Jori Lehtera

had the go-ahead goal in the second period on

a spinning shot that Martin Jones could not
handle.
I just got the puck and closed my eyes and
shot it, thats about it, Lehtera said. Just
keep it simple.
Said Jones: Not much to it, just found a
hole. Ill make that save next time.
Tomas Hertl scored on a first-period deflection for the Sharks, who outshot St. Louis 3223 but couldnt quite solve Elliott.
Among those he frustrated was captain Joe
Pavelski, who had seven shots and had perhaps the best chance in the third period on a
one-timer near the midway mark. Pavelski
and Elliott were roommates at Wisconsin.
Im going to blame that one on the stick,
Pavelski said. No, I have to find a way to put

I thought we did a great job. We kept it in

you kidding me? We couldnt get it out.
The Sharks were the best road team in the
NHL in the regular season at 28-10-3, but have
dropped four in a row on the road in these playoffs, including all three in the second round
against Nashville. They had seven goals in
three road losses to the Predators and were 0

OAKLAND Stephen Currys near halfcourt shot to win it in overtime at

Oklahoma City in late February became one
of the defining moments in his record-shattering MVP season.
Now, with four more victories against
Kevin Durant and the Thunder in the Western
Conference finals, Curry and Co. will move
one step closer to the Warriors ultimate
goal: A repeat championship.

It was a deep shot, and

it was a huge shot it
was something Ive

recalled. But it wasnt
like it was a shot that

Golden State won all three regular-season

Mills boys chase down PAL title

Vikings boysteam three-peats; M-A regains girls crown
By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Last season, it was the Mills girls team that won it dramatic fashion on the last race at the Peninsula Athletic
League Track and Field Championships.
This year, it was the boys turn.
The Mills boys have achieved something of a modern PAL
dynasty. In winning the PAL title Saturday at MenloAtherton, the they are now three-peat champions.
No matter what happened, it was a really great day, Mills
head coach Tim Tuff said. We had so many athletes win, or
place, or have personal best marks; it would have been a
good day no matter what. But its really great to come in and
finish what we started in March and close it out.
This years competition was by far the most heated of the
three straight titles.
Mills ultimately topped second-place Menlo-Atherton 9088, but going into the final race of the day the boys
4x400 meter relay M-A was the team holding a 2-point
lead. The point differential meant Mills needed to win the
event to clinch at least a tie, and had to count on some help
to knock M-A to third place in order to claim the outright
title.
Thats precisely what happened. And not only did Sequoia
give Mills the help it needed the Cherokees took second
place in the event, topping third-place M-A by less than
three seconds the Vikings ran the race of their lives, topping their personal record by five seconds with a time of 3
minutes, 27.61 seconds.
This group of seniors, theyve won every dual meet their

whole career, Tuff said. They won the championship last

year and the team (championship) the year before that. So, it
was important to them.
The Vikings relay team of seniors Alex Habash, Kirk
Barill, Shayan Lavasani and junior Takahiro Mollenkamp
executed explosive lap after explosive lap. Taking the lead
immediately, it was Barill who widened the lead to an all but
insurmountable distance.
It was a busy day for Barill, who also captured gold in both
his individual sprints the 100-meter and 200-meter dash.
And while he admitted to being exhausted following the
4x400 relay finale, it certainly didnt show while he was running.
Since I was pumped up from winning the [100 and 200]
today, I wanted another medal and win the whole meet,
Barill said. Because last year we were champions, so I wanted to make our throne keep going.
The lone junior on the Mills relay team, Mollenkamp, was
running to redeem a disappointment earlier in the day.
Mollenkamp took second place in the boys 800 meter in
1:59.76, being edged by Burlingame senior Ben Williams
with a winning time of 1:59.17. Mollenkamp, though, led
for the first 700 meters, only to get outkicked by Williams
on the final lap.
So, while Mollenkamp took the baton in the 4x400 with
a great lead, he still ran with a fire allowing Mills to smash
its personal record.
For the seniors, this was the last championship meet, so
I ran for them, Mollenkamp said. Also it was for myself
because I was second place in the 800. So, I wanted to make
up for that. I pushed myself.

M-A regains girls title

It was the Menlo-Atherton girls team that suffered the
upset to Mills last season, when the Lady Bears got knocked
to second place on the final race of the day. This year, M-A
wasnt messing around, topping second-place Mills 15290.
I knew we could do it, M-A senior Annalisa Crowe said.
I think as a team it just really worked out.
A four-year varsity standout, Crowe has been battling the
flu for the past two weeks. It didnt stop her from topping the
podium in her signature event, the girls 800, as she triumphed by over eight seconds with a 2:18.62.
After missing the state championships by one spot in the
event by virtue of a fourth-place finish at the Central Coast
Section finals, Crowe has been driven all season by the goal
of getting to the state meet. But now, all of a sudden, the
immediate goal is to get back to full health for the CCS
meet, with trials beginning May 21 at San Jose Community
College and the finals the following week on May 27.
Its really important to me, Crowe said. Ive been working so hard all year. Im really hoping it all falls into place
because its a lot of years of hard work.
M-A freshman sprinter Maggie Hall was the hit of the meet
in the girls sprints, as was to be expected. In her first year
on a track team of any kind, Hall recorded the best time in the
PAL in three events this season, the 100, 200 and 400.
Ive always been told I was fast so I wanted to try track,
Hall said. Its been fun and I think Ive gotten better over

In being limited to the 100 and 200 on Saturday, she won
both, missing her personal record by hundreds of a second in
each. She took first in the 100 with a 12.47, two one-hundredths of a second off her 12.45 from the St. Francis
Invitational. Her first-place time in the 200 of 25.37 was
even a slimmer margin, as her season-best at the Serra Top 7
Invitational was 25.36.
Hall also helped the M-A relay team to gold in both the

Gayer upsets Crowe in 1,600

While Crowe wasnt in peak condition Saturday, it might
not have mattered in the 1,600 with the way Mills junior
Sarah Gayer was running.
Gayer took gold with a time of 5:02.79, not only breaking
her personal record by seven seconds, but overtaking Crowe
for the top time in the PAL this season. Gayers time also
ranks eighth on the CCS leaderboard for the year.
It was great for Sarah to have someone right there to race
against, Tuff said. She really just executed it perfectly. It
was the best race Ive seen her run.
Even Gayer recognized she was the underdog entering the
race.
Shes very fast so I thought she was going to beat me,
Gayer said.

and unprecedented Peninsula sports era is ending. He is retiring from coaching after 41 years
of continuous softball service on the Carlmont
campus. During that time, his teams have won
more than 1,000 games, a California prep
record. No state softball coach, past or present, is even close to that figure.

Liggett, now in his

mid-70s,
built
the
Carlmont program from
the ground up, starting in
1976, to the point where
it is regarded as one of
Northern California's signature prep softball powerhouses. It has few peers,
whether public or private.
Jim Liggett
Liggett, whose two top
assistants, Ron Perris and Walt McElroy, have
been with him for a generation, is a master of
detail and preparation, not to mention ingame adjustments.
We won't see anything like this again,
said Terry Stogner, a former Carlmont athletic
director and now commissioner of the
Peninsula Athletic League, of which Carlmont
is a member. And he did it the right way.

CSM

And in the circle, Peterson tabbed 3 1/3
innings of relief, including a gutsy performance Sunday to close out starting pitcher
Morgan Jones 20th win of the season.
Shes a competitor, Borg said. Shes one
of the greatest competitors on this team.
Shes a true Bulldog. Shell come right at
you.
While CSM has relied on a tandem of freshman starting pitchers this season in Jones
and Samantha Dean, Petersons sophomore
presence has loomed large, especially down
the stretch. And the Carlmont graduate
emerged for the biggest stop job of her collegiate career when called upon in the sixth
inning Sunday.
With the Bulldogs clinging to a 6-3 lead,
Peterson entered in relief of Dean. Jones had
gone five solid innings, allowing one run on
four hits; but Dean took over to start the sixth
and ran into a heap of trouble. And after Dean
walked home a run, Peterson was summoned
with the bases loaded and the potential goahead run at the plate.
Peterson was greeted by a sharp one-hopper
back to the mound. The sophomore knocked
it down then used her wily infielder instincts
to corral the ball and fire to first base for the
final out of the inning.
It was the most important play of the
game, I think, Peterson said. It was a big
play. Because after giving up a run, youve
got to come back and work hard for that one.
The CSM offense the No. 1 offense in
Northern California with a .394 batting average gave its pitching staff plenty of
breathing room early on, rallying for five
runs in the second inning.
The big swing of the bat came from sophomore catcher Harlee Donovan. With CSM

leading 3-0, Donovan scorched a laser beam
over the left-field fence for a two-run home
run, her 17th of the season.
After leading the state with 20 homers last
season, Donovans blast moved her into a tie
for the state lead with 17. And this while she
has been subjected to the Barry Bonds treatment all season. She also leads the state with
37 walks, including seven through the threegame Super Regional.
Harlee went through a lot of challenges
this year, Borg said. The fact that we put her
in the 1-spot to get her better pitches. The
fact that people didnt pitch to her, that was
hard for her to accept. But the truth of the matter is shes a true team player and she understands how much of an asset she is when shes
on the bases. So regardless of how she gets
there shes on. And having her behind the
dish is awesome. Shes a very coachable player and, yeah, of course were going to miss
her. I wish we were a four-year when we have

Tori Nyberg, a dominating pitcher and the

most-honored softball player in Carlmont
history (she holds the all-time softball pitching state record with 113 wins), echoed those
thoughts and stated that she and the other
Scots who played for Liggett through the
decades, ... can never thank you enough.
She added that Liggett, whose demanding
standards became legendary at the school and
throughout the PAL and CCS, was tough but
devoted to his players. And, she said, We
never wanted to let you (Liggett) down.
Since its inception, not long after the landmark Title IX mandate became the federal law
of the land and ordered equal athletic opportunities for both male and female students,
Scots softball teams, under Liggett and his
staff, have captured 28 league championships
and eight CCS crowns.
Randy Metheany, Hillsdale High School's

softball coach, said coaching against a

Liggett team was always a challenge.
Metheany got his first taste of that experience
some 35 years ago when his Hillsdale team
unit faced Carlmont for the first time.
Right away, recalled Metheany, Liggett
who also coached football and baseball at
Carlmont protested the legality of the
Hillsdale pitcher's (fireballing Karen
Athanacio) delivery. An argument ensued, the
umpires conferred at length and an accommodation was reached.
And that was the start of a long and spirited
rivalry between the two PAL softball heavyweights. Including the 2016 PAL campaign,
Hillsdale has nine league championships for
its trophy case.

players like that.

CSM added an insurance run in the fourth
when sophomore Kaitlin Chang belted a solo
home run to left-center to put the Bulldogs up
6-0. But Donovan, for one, wasnt expecting
a rout like CSM enjoyed in the Super
Regional opener.
I think we knew it was going to be a fight
to the finish, Donovan said. I think every
playoff game Ive ever played in, when you
get ahead big like that at the beginning of the
game, they always come back to bite you. So
we knew going into it that we were going to
have to fight until the last out was made.
And No. 5-seed Sierra did battle back. In the
fifth, the Wolverines got on the board with a
solo home run by Karisa Cobey. Then in the
sixth, Sierra manufactured two runs against
Dean before the bases-loaded walk to pinch
hitter Amanda Modder forced CSM to turn to
Peterson.
Petersons defensive reflexes that got CSM
out of the bind are no fluke. A top-flight second baseman, she previously turned in the
defensive gem of the afternoon in the fourth
inning, diving with full extension to snag
with a backhand a sharp grounder off the bat
of Rylie Carlier, then pop to her feet and gun
across her body for the out.
I think shes just awesome, Donovan
said. Shes a fielder, so she brings a little bit
of a different outlook into the circle rather
than the pitchers outlook. So, I think she
definitely brought a little more fire (to the circle) just because she knew what the job that
had to be done.
CSM opens play at the double-elimination
state tournament Friday as one of two teams
looking for its first-ever state title. Southern
Californias Santiago Canyon has also never
won the crown. Four-time state champion
Sacramento City and eight-time champ
Cypress round out the four-team field.

College of San Mateo baseball suffered backto-back losses, each by the same score of 8-4,
Saturday and Sunday at Cosumnes River
College to be eliminated in the Northern
California baseball regional playoffs.
The Bulldogs opened the best-of-three series
with a 6-4 win Friday, but led only briefly
Saturday with a first-inning run before
Cosumnes River took charge with a four-run
rally in the third. From there, the Hawks never
again trailed in the series.
Facing CSM freshman Tommy Watanabe in
Sundays finale, Cosumnes River jumped out to
a 2-0 lead by virtue of two unearned runs.
In the fifth, the Bulldogs rallied to tie it; after
loading the bases, Juan Gonzalez produced an
RBI single and Daniel Page later scored on an
infield error to draw even at 2-2. But in the bottom of the frame, the Hawks loaded the bases to
knock Watanabe out of the game. Then facing
Bulldogs reliever Daniel Slominski, Hawks
cleanup hitter Brian Morley produced a sacrifice
fly to score Daniel Enes. Jordan Yu then scored
on a wild pitch to give Cosumnes a 4-2 lead.
The Bulldogs rallied for a run in the sixth on
an RBI double by Dominic Smith. But the
Hawks broken it open in the bottom of the
inning with a four-run rally.
Freshman leadoff hitter Brandon Hernandez
was 6 for 15 in the series, upping his team-best
batting average to .345. CSM finishes the year
with a 26-15 overall record. It is the seventh
straight year the Bulldogs have reached the

49ers rugby convert Hayne retires GIANTS

SAN FRANCISCO Australian

rugby league star Jarryd Haynes
NFL experiment is over, as he
announced his retirement Sunday
from the San Francisco 49ers in
order to push for selection in the
Fiji Rugby Sevens team for the
Rio Olympics.
I simply could not pass that
chance up, Hayne said. The
Olympics has been something I
have admired since I was a little
boy, and it is an opportunity I feel
very similar to me joining the
NFL.
A 6-foot-2, 220-pound running
back and special teams player, the
28-year-old Hayne was a surprise
to make the initial 53-man roster
out of training camp as a rookie

He joined San Francisco as an
undrafted free agent on March 3,
2015, then made the cut under former coach Jim Tomsula making
good on his goal nearly a year
after leaving his old sport to chase
a new NFL dream across the world.
His journey captivated his home
country nearly 7,000 miles away,
with Australian media closely following his quest.
He left the National Rugby
League in 2014, then signed a
three-year contract with San
Francisco the next March in a deal
he said included $100,000 in guaranteed money. Hayne spent the
previous nine years - from 200614 - with the Parramatta Eels in
the NRL and also represented
Australia and played for New South

theyre just 4-4 at the Scottrade

but got the lone goal when Lehtera

And while Gayer said she was disappointed with many of her split times,
she accelerated into an exciting closing lap that saw her fly by Crowe

gold in the girls 50 free with a time of 22.79.
Swimming the anchor leg of the girls 400

After struggling for much of the playoffs,
Lowry and DeRozan were in top form for Game
7. Lowry made 11 of 20 shots, including five
of seven from 3-point range, and DeRozan
connected on 12 of 29 attempts. Lowry had
nine assists and seven rebounds, DeRozan had
eight rebounds.
And now he draws Westbrook in another
daunting defensive assignment.
Yet Thompson spent Thursdays day off at
a dog park so, yes, his legs are still plenty fresh, thank you.
Its been a lot of fun, Thompson said.
My energy on both offense and defense
never really withered. I was locked in for five
straight games. I shot the ball well. That
helps. ... Its nice to have home court.
Youve got to set yourself up mentally each
series, youve got to reset. Guarding James
and guarding Damian, and hopefully now up
for the challenge of Westbrook and Durant,
youve got to get your rest but mentally prepare yourself for no rest, really.

Crash the boards

The Thunder were the NBAs top rebounding team, by a long shot. While sending
Durant, center Steven Adams, power forward
Serge Ibaka and others to the glass at every
chance, Oklahoma City outrebounded opponents by 8.4 twice that of any other team.
Even Westbrook crashes the offensive
boards as well as anybody from the point
guard position.
Its a different type of series, were
absolutely going to have to play better,
Kerr said. This is a much bigger team.
Rebounding will be key.
That means the Golden State guards doing
their part.
We got outrebounded by like 30 in OKC
and we won. Ive never heard of a team doing
that, Curry said.

two Game 7s in one postseason. Toronto beat
Indiana in the first round.
Now the Raptors get ready for the Cavaliers,
who swept Detroit in the first round and have
been resting since May 8, when they capped a

I think this group is hungry, Casey said

Casey declined to say whether center Jonas
Valanciunas, who sprained his right ankle in
Game 3 against the Heat, would be available
against Cleveland.
We know weve got a tough task ahead,
Lowry said. Its always a challenge going
against those guys.
Dwyane Wade and Goran Dragic each scored
16 points for the Heat. Miami was denied the
opportunity to renew acquaintances with former teammate James in the conference finals.
Miami hadnt lost a Game 7 since the first

ask for is to give yourself a swing at the plate

kick-off, ComScore Senior Media Analyst Paul
Dergarabedian said.
Traditionally this second weekend in May is not an enviable weekend to be releasing on, but it can be a land of
opportunity for films that fill a particular niche, or bring in
an audience who might not be interested in these big blockbusters, Dergarabedian said. Its not competing with all
the noise.
The summer movie slate only gets more crowded from
here on out. Next weekend sees the opening of The Angry
Birds Movie, The Nice Guys, and Neighbors 2: Sorority
Rising, before the big Memorial Day release of Alice
Through the Looking Glass and X-Men: Apocalypse.
It was a big weekend, but not the most exciting weekend, Dergarabedian said. Its mostly business as usual.

Housing
Kiesel said the Legislature failed
to come up with alternatives to
redevelopment agencies or means
to equip locals with tools to fund
affordable housing needs. He
noted the jobs-to-housing imbalance and suggested California
Environmental Quality Act regulations and Proposition 13 property
tax laws need some tweaking. He
also emphasized the need for better east-west public transit
options for commuters who are
looking to buy more reasonablypriced homes further inland.
Weve created 55,000, 56,000
jobs and weve got right around
somewhere around 3,000 [housing] units built. I tell people you
do the math, Kiesel said. We
need to get the proactive stuff,
because we should know by now, it
takes longer to build housing,
longer to build infrastructure,
longer to build wastewater treatment plants.
Mullin agreed CEQA and
Proposition 13 need to be
reworked and remained frustrated
Gov. Jerry Brown hasnt support-

Transportation
Mullin said more is needed to
cope with the effects of a robust
economy. He supports Caltrain
electrification, the funding for
which is tied to high-speed rail, as
well as grade separations and commuter lanes along Highway 101.
He said he works to build relationships with Republican colleagues, particularly as it will take
a two-thirds vote to address the
states failing funding formulas
and to approve a multi-billion dollar transportation package, which
will require new revenue sources.
He would support increasing the
gas tax and vehicle license fees as
well as creating a surcharge for
electric vehicles.
I think we have to do something that depoliticizes this whole
issue. We should be holding
hands and jumping together. This
is how crucial this is in terms of
maintaining our economy,
Mullin said. The needs are great
and you cant really talk about
housing without talking about
transportation and vice versa, so
these two issues are the most critical facing the state right now. But
its metastasizing in my district.
Gilham said hes concerned
existing infrastructure such as
roads, dams and electrical grids

arent keeping up with the population influx. He also raised concerns about proposals to reduce
highway or traffic lanes to provide
for bikes. Hes against raising
taxes and noted the unfortunate
repercussions of high housing
costs is for commuters to either
allow themselves more time to get
to work or take public transit.
Im focusing on whats important to me in my county, as to the
rest of the counties, theyre going
to have to get in line. Its my
county thats a priority, Gilham
said. Were being squeezed and
were growing too much.
Kiesel said hes concerned not
enough is being done in
Sacramento to address transportation, which affects residents and
businesses alike. He supports
Caltrain electrification and grade
separations,
but
questioned
whether high-speed rail is a viable
alternative in either the short or
long term.
He noted the county cannot
overcome these regional issues on
its own and needs more guidance.
He supports prioritizing the State
Route 92 and Highway 101 corridors as they help drive one of the
nations
most
significant
economies.
Weve got roads in bad shape.
If everybodys suffering, OK, I
get that. But if theres funds and
someones doing something, well
this is a real bottleneck and its a
global bottleneck. It affects the
global economy as well, Kiesel
said. But we need a more collaborative, concerted effort amongst
counties to deal with larger
issues.

deterring most public employees
from receiving lofty state pensions while chipping away at the
current obligations, and promoting more local control.
Keep the government off your
back, keep them off your property,
keep them out of your bedroom,
Gilham said. The more we have
the right to self govern, the better
off I think were going to be.
Art Kiesel is making his first bid
for a state office. He served eight
years on the Foster City Council,
seven years with the League of
California Cities and has a background in finance working for a

Republican said he hopes to
encourage a less reactive, more
bipartisanship approach to the
Legislature and wants to address
issues like water sustainability
and funding transportation projects.
I would love to see the state be
more proactive. We wait for someone to get killed at the intersection before we put up a sign,
Kiesel said. Thats one of the
things, the faults Ive found with
government in general.
Mullin, a former South San
Francisco councilman, is seeking
his third term in Sacramento and
said hes committed to finding
solutions to acute challenges facing his district. Mullin said hes

proposed legislation to re-equip
cities with inclusionary zoning
laws as well as providing seniors
with more flexibility in transferring lower property tax rates.
He supports the proposal to

one glaring local challenge is

because it is considered wealthy.

We need to do more when it

also need to be sensitive to those
who are worried about overdevelopment.
Gilham said its not just
Californias economic success
that has contributed to the housing shortage, noting low federal
interest rates are a significant
problem. He questioned whether
the region was perhaps overgrowing and would support tax reforms.
He also raised concerns about

issue more thoroughly.

A
presentation
primarily
authored
by
Assistant
Superintendent
Liz McManus
detailed a variety of opportunities
to build projects at the campuses of
Mills, Crestmoor, Capuchino and
San Mateo high schools.
The projects, which span in
expected cost between $40 million
and $60 million to construct, all
suffer from a unique set of challenges, such as incompatibility
with the surrounding neighborhood, disrupting the campus character and restricting the opportunity for future classroom expansion,
among other issues.
Trustees agreed though, at first
blush, the Mills High School and
Crestmoor proposals seemed the
most realistic sites to build, as each
campus has adequate space to
accommodate a development in the
neighborhood of 100 units, or
more.
Theres really only two viable

options Crestmoor and Mills,

said Trustee Marc Friedman. The
others hit me as not looking too
good. If the administration wanted
to focus on those two, Id have no
problem with that.
Three proposals to build between
126 and 149 units on the Mills
High School campus could cost
from $44 million to $53 million,
according to the report.
Building 150 units on the
Crestmoor campus, which is currently
home to
Peninsula
Alternative High School, could
cost an estimated $42 million,
according to the report.
Concurrent with the opportunity
to develop housing at the site,
McManus noted officials need to
decide whether the alternative
school will remain on the San
Bruno campus or if it should be
relocated further south and closer to
the homes of most students.
Officials had suggested moving
Peninsula Alternative High School

to property leased from the San

Mateo County Office of Education
on Rollins Road in Burlingame
once it becomes available after
Design Tech High School, the districts only charter school, relocates from the site to its new home
on the Oracle Corporation campus
in Redwood Shores.
Amidst discussions for the
Crestmoor
campus,
trustees
acknowledged building a dense
housing development on the
secluded campus may not fit well
with the surrounding neighborhood. San Bruno resident Judith
Puccini said she did not support the
plan for development of the
Crestmoor campus, especially in
regards to the congestion and traffic
that housing may bring.
Im not against teacher housing,
but your current plan for Crestmoor
is not a good one, she said.
Trustee Linda Lees Dwyer suggested as a compromise constructing a small portion of the homes,

perhaps 50 units, at Crestmoor and

building more densely on the Mills
campus.
Superintendent Kevin Skelly
though said initial indications from
developers suggest building fewer
than 100 units at a time becomes
tough to finance, especially if the
district plans to offer reduced rates
to residents.
As we look at this, there is certainly more work to be done,
Skelly said.
Officials will spend the interim
months dedicated toward identifying a variety of financing methods
which could pay for the project,
under direction from the board.
Friedman said he favored considering all financing opportunities,
because the affordable housing
project could be a tremendous asset
to the district.
Something like this gives us a
competitive advantage to make sure
we can always get the very best
teachers, he said.

Were trying to grow a community for these innovators who most
of them are heads down, theyre
mostly caring about where their
next funding dollar is coming
from, Petrakis said. Part of
Innovation week is to not just recognize these innovators and recognize the innovation thats going on

all collaborations with the local
school district fall, is a multifaceted
effort design to inspire South San
Francisco students to pursue a
career in science, math, engineering or technology.
Students from the South San
Francisco Unified School District
go on to attend four-year universities at a disproportionately lower
rate then neighboring communities, according to a Genentech
memo, which has compelled the
internationally recognized company to ramp up its investment in
local schools.
In conjunction with Helix Cup,
Genentech also launched the Gene
Academy which pairs elementary
students with mentors from the
company to inspire a passion in

young learners for science.

South San Francisco High School
is also set to be the future home of
the Science Garage, a state-of-theart lab built by Genentech which
will grant students a unique learning environment. Ground is set to
be broken on the project this summer, with the expectation of it to
open in the fall.
The company also hosts frequent
field trips for local students to its
campus, and offers professional
development opportunities for district teachers, among other contributions. Reed Campbell said the
variety of programs illustrate the
commitment of Genentech to
improve opportunities in the community where the company is headquartered.
We really want to bring some-

district, were also recently awarded
scholarships from Genentech
worth up to $50,000 per year to pay
toward tuition at a four-year university to pursue a degree which may
put them on the path toward a career

Though the scholarship and
Futurelab programs are still in their
relative infancy, as both were only
installed last year, Campbell Reed

said Genentech intends to monitor

the success of the initiatives with
an eye to modifying and improving
them in future years.
Shawnterra Moore, superintendent of the South San Francisco
Unified School District, said she
appreciated the collaborative relationship formed between the two
agencies.
Its a tremendous honor to have
this partnership, she said.
Looking at the field of competition working hard toward their
deadline in the Helix Cup, Moore
beamed with pride.
The opportunity to be exposed
to something like this that they
wouldnt otherwise is tremendous,
she said. Many other districts
dont have this, so it is just so
exciting.
