Red Morton Park in Redwood

City will soon be home to one of
the most innovative and inclusive
playgrounds in all of the United
States.
The park will be designed to be
socially inclusive for children and
adults of varying physical and
cognitive abilities.
The concept aims to go beyond
typical playground designs, which
often inadvertently overlook the
growing autistic population, cog-

nitively challenged, visually and

hearing impaired, physically limited and the aging population.
The city is partnering with the
Magical Bridge Foundation to
bring the park to life. It built its
first park in Palo Alto in 2015.
The Redwood City park is
expected to open in late 2017 or
early 2018.
The City Council approved
spending $1.5 million toward the
parks construction and the foundation will raise the rest of the

Frat at University of
Richmond suspended
over inappropriate email
RICHMOND, Va. A University of
Richmond fraternity has been suspended over what the school called a grossly offensive email that described a
party as one that makes fathers afraid
to send their daughters away to
school.
The fraternitys suspension comes as
the school faces scrutiny over its handling of alleged sexual assaults after
two female students wrote highly critical essays about the university last
week on The Huffington Post.
The university has suspended operations, activities and events of
Richmonds Kappa Alpha chapter,
pending an investigation into the
email, which was sent to about 100 students, the school said in a statement.
The fraternitys national headquarters
said in a statement that it has also suspended the chapter due to actions that
are contrary to its value of gentlemanly conduct.
The email contained grossly offensive language and suggestions of
behavior inconsistent with our policies concerning Greek life and with the
caring nature of our campus community, the university said.

Converting offices to housing gets review Police reports

Foster City planners to determine what to study in conversion proposal
By Samantha Weigel
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Foster City planners and residents will

be asked what factors should be studied as
part of the proposal to construct townhomes on a large mixed-use parcel already
zoned for office space.
The Planning Commission will host a
study session Thursday on the 3.36-acre
site known as Pilgrim Triton Phase C,
where developer Sares Regis seeks to construct up to 68 residences, in place of more
than 172,000 square feet of office space
with 17 residential units and a large parking structure.
Sares Regis first proposed a rezoning of
its portion of the 20-acre Pilgrim Triton
project last year. However, it didnt complete its application before two new councilmembers were seated in the last election. Its now again winding through the
public planning process and environmental studies are expected to contrast its new
proposal against the sites current entitlements.
The council considered the preliminary
proposal last month with some members
noting theyd like more information contrasting the different options before forming opinions. Another opposed approving
new units a sentiment echoed by the
group Foster City Residents for
Responsible Development, which has
remained staunchly against any new housing projects until the impacts of already
approved developments are known.
Now, city staff is asking the commission and public to weigh in on what factors should be considered such as traffic
impacts or whether a hotel might be feasible instead.
The entire 20-acre Pilgrim Triton site
was approved for a mix of 730 residences,
296,000 square feet of commercial space,
parks and parking. City staff and officials
are also being asked to consider how
changing Phase C might affect the other
portions of the mixed-use development,
according to a staff report.
Phase C was slated to host the majority
of the office space as an attempt to ensure
there would be no net loss of commercial
space; currently an estimated 23 businesses are located at the site, according to the
report.
But Sares Regis has noted demand for
smaller office space has dwindled while
more housing is needed across the region.
Sares Regis has argued the proposed for-

sale townhomes, 20 percent of which are
required to be set aside as affordable, would
generate less traffic than a large office
complex. Representatives also contend
conditions have changed since the original Pilgrim Triton Master Plan was
approved.
This is a choice between a plan
approved 10 years ago and a new plan
which reduces impacts and provides benefits, Dave Hopkins, Sares Regis project
manager, previously wrote in an email.
We feel that the conversion of the office
use to townhomes is a better fit with the
community and helps to address the growing imbalance between newly created jobs
in Foster City and the Peninsula and
investment in our communitys housing
stock.
But concerned residents note the impacts
of already approved housing units have
yet to be felt in a city that suffers from
severe traffic congestion and school overcrowding issues.
Bob Cushman, a member of Foster City
Residents for Responsible Development,
said he hopes the city conducts a thorough
review of the environmental impacts associated with the proposal. He suggested a
full review, not just an amendment to the
existing report conducted during the master plan for the entire site, could be warranted. He also noted the city has previously approved statements of overriding
considerations meaning there are
unavoidable and significant impacts for
certain projects.
If I had to pick out one top concern, it
has to do with the way the [environmental
review] will be approached by the city,
Cushman wrote in an email. A staff recommendation that there be an amendment
may represent a short cut rather than a
more thorough exploration and review and
acknowledgment of all the accumulated
problems there, which we would prefer.
Some questions planning commissioners will be asked to consider is whether
other land uses, such as creating a hotel
instead of office space or housing, should
be considered. The city also plans to analyze whether commercial businesses existing or planned at other portions of the site
and around the park will be viable without

the support of office workers at Phase C

an issue staff describes as a synergy of
uses. The initial study will also consider
economic viability, such as what kind of
demand there is for smaller offices in
Foster City and what type of project will
have lasting benefits to the community,
according to the report.
Sares Regis conducted its own preliminary traffic review and contends the
impacts from 68 townhomes would be less
than the vehicle trips generated by office
space and a 600-space parking lot. Based
on data from the school district and its
demographer, city staff preliminarily estimates the new proposal could generate 21
students, instead of the five new students
from the 17 already approved units,
according to the report.
A traditional environmental review,
including a traffic study and a water supply
assessment, will also be conducted. The
public as well as commission will be able
to offer other suggestions for areas to be
considered at Thursdays meeting.
After the studies are prepared, the next
steps
include
another
Planning
Commission study session as well as public hearings by the commission as well as
by the City Council, which has the ultimate say as to whether it should approve

House GOP offer resolution to impeach IRS chief

By Alan Fram
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON

Two
Republican congressmen formally offered a campaign-season resolution Tuesday to impeach IRS
chief John Koskinen, setting the
House on course for showdown
votes over an effort that rouses
conservatives but has no chance
of ousting the commissioner from
office.
The proposal by conservative
Reps. John Fleming, R-La., and
Tim Huelskamp, R-Kan. , is
expected to face votes Thursday in

which its fate is

unclear. With
solid opposition
from
Democrats and
resistance from
m a n y
R e p ub l i c a n s
who consider it
John Koskinen excessive and
politically
damaging, the measure might end
up being killed and replaced by a
censure motion that would scold
Koskinen but leave him in his
job.
The House Oversight and
Government Reform Committee

voted along party lines in June to

censure Koskinen.
Censure
does
nothing,
Fleming, who is running for the
Senate, told reporters Tuesday.
Impeachment makes a much
stronger statement than censure.
It says in the opinion of the
House, John Koskinen should
lose his job.
Because the issue has so divided
Republicans, GOP lawmakers will
meet privately Thursday to discuss
how to handle it.
Even if the House musters a
majority to impeach Koskinen
the equivalent of indicting him
Republicans would have no

chance of winning the two-thirds

majority required to convict him
in the Senate. The GOP has just 54
of that chambers 100 seats.
In a formality, Fleming read the
four-page resolution on the House
floor, accusing him of committing
high crimes and misdemeanors,
the constitutional standard for
impeachment. The move is certain to draw attention to Fleming,
among 24 candidates running for
the Senate in his state.
House Minority Whip Steny
Hoyer, D-Md., called the impeachment drive totally unjustified
and said Democrats will oppose it
unanimously.

Sept. 11 memorial vandalized outside fire station

By Daniel Montes
BAY CITY NEWS SERVICE

A memorial set up outside an

East Palo Alto fire station for the
15th anniversary of Sept. 11,
2001, was vandalized, firefighters
discovered Sunday after returning
from an emergency call.
The memorial a tradition
within the Menlo Park Fire
Protection District since the first
anniversary of the terrorist
attacks in New York City,

Washington and Pennsylvania

had been set on fire in front of
Station 2 at 2290 University Ave.
in East Palo Alto, according to fire
officials.
The district provides emergency
services to East Palo Alto, Menlo
Park, Atherton and portions of
unincorporated
San
Mateo
County.
The memorial consisted of 343
small flags representing each firefighter who died while in the line
of duty on Sept. 11. The flags were
being held in a flag tray, which

was built and paid for by the firefighters themselves, fire officials
said.
Fortunately its minor. Given
the density of the flags on the pallet it could be much worse, it
looks like half a dozen flags were
burned with several others damaged, Battalion Chief Ben Marra,
a veteran of the response to the
World Trade Center in New York,
said in a statement.
The East Palo Alto Police
Department has been notified
about the incident and is currently

reviewing video from the scene,

according to fire officials.
I dont get angry easily, but
knowing that someone tried to
burn not only our flag memorial,
but a specific tribute to 343 heroic
fallen brothers, some of whom I
personally knew, worked with and
helped to look for at Ground Zero,
and that this occurred here on the
actual 15th anniversary date of
this event, its a despicable act of
disrespect and cowardice, Fire
Chief Harold Schapelhouman said
in a statement.

Man pleads no contest to hitting rival with car

BAY CITY NEWS SERVICE

A 25-year-old man pleaded no

contest to assault and child endangerment charges Monday in connection with an intentional crash
in which he struck a man after the
two fought during a soccer match in
Daly City last year, prosecutors
said.
Daly City resident Sergio Merino
pleaded no contest to felony
assault with an enhancement for

inflicting great bodily injury and

felony child endangerment, San
Mateo District Attorney Steve
Wagstaffe said.
Merino faces a state prison sentence of up to six years for the incident on Dec. 3, 2015, according to
Wagstaffe.
Merino and the victim, a 44year-old man, were playing in a
soccer match at the Church of
Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints at
1399 Brunswick St., prosecutors
said.

During the match, the two had

and neither was injured, according
to the District Attorneys Office.
Minutes later after the match
ended, Merino got into his Toyota
truck, which was parked in the
churchs parking lot. Inside the
truck, Merino was carrying a 4year-old child, prosecutors said.
When Merino spotted the victim
walking across the parking lot, he
accelerated his truck and struck the

victim. The victim tried to jump

out of the way, but was sent flying
into the air. The victim suffered a
laceration to his head, which
required at least seven staples,
prosecutors said.
Merino then fled the scene and
attempted to conceal his identity
by deleting his Facebook profile
the next day, but was eventually
arrested.
Hes scheduled to return to court
for sentencing on Oct. 25, according to Wagstaffe.

considering traffic control
measures on Lombard Street
San Francisco city officials are
considering options for managing
the flow of traffic on the famous
crooked section of Lombard
Street including a toll or reservation
system.
The crush of visitors to the popular tourist spot, which draws more
visitors than Muir Woods, has
caused crowded sidewalks, traffic
snarls, safety hazards and problems
for residents trying to access their
homes, according to the San
Francisco County Transportation
Authority. The agency is studying
options for managing traffic in the
area that could include requiring
reservations or a fee to drive down
the street or even closing the street
to vehicles or to non-resident
pedestrians and vehicles.
Other options include increased
parking control officers to direct
traffic and monitor parking,
increased education efforts and
incentives for visitors to take the
cable car.
The agency presented the results
of its study at a community open
house at Yick Wo Elementary
School at 2245 Jones St. near

Tuesday that he had vetoed would have
added up to $300 million a year, he
said.
Jerry Brown
As I said last year, tax breaks are the
same as new spending they both
cost the General Fund money. As such, they must be considered during budget deliberations so that all spending
proposals are weighed against each other at the same
time, Brown said in a news release accompanying his
announcement. This is even more important when the
states budget remains precariously balanced.
Women lawmakers had hoped to make California the
latest state to scrap the so-called tampon tax, which
they argue is an unfair burden on a necessary hygiene
product that is not a luxury. At least five other states and
some countries have already enacted laws ending such
taxes as part of an international movement to depict them
as discriminatory. Brown also rejected legislation that
would have eliminated sales taxes on diapers.
The bills author, Assemblywoman Cristina Garcia, DBell Gardens, accused the governor of mansplaining in
a Twitter post.
It is time to end this out of date practice and support
gender equity in the State of Californias tax code, Garcia
said in an email statement. Today Governor Brown sent
a clear message to all women in California. He told us
periods are a luxury for women. ... Men purchase Viagra
and they dont get taxed.

California governor signs

bill banning SeaWorld orca shows
SACRAMENTO California Gov. Jerry Brown is
approving legislation requiring SeaWorld to follow
through on its plan to end killer whale breeding and entertainment shows.
The Democratic governor said Tuesday hes signed a
budget bill codifying SeaWorlds plans in state law.
A provision if SB839 makes it a crime for an individual
or corporation to breed orcas in captivity, punishable by
a fine of up to $100,000.
SeaWorld announced in March that it was no longer
breeding orcas and would stop making whales do tricks at
its amusement parks. The company plans to focus instead
on the educational opportunities with its existing
whales.
The new orca displays will begin next year at
SeaWorlds San Diego park, before expanding to its other
two parks by 2019.

Barack Obama speaks during a campaign event in support of Hillary Clinton in Philadelphia, Penn.

Obama says Clinton steady and

Trump not fit in any way to lead
By Kathleen Hennessey
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

PHILADELPHIA

Accusing
Republicans of fanning hate, President
Barack Obama on Tuesday stepped in
to defend a bruised and temporarily
benched Hillary Clinton, hoping to
reassure Democrats nervous both about
their presidential candidates health
and her handling of fresh trouble on
her campaign.
Speaking at an outdoor rally in a
Democratic
stronghold,
Obama
praised Clinton as the most qualified
candidate ever to seek the office and
mocked her opponent Donald Trump as
not fit in any way to lead. He suggested Clinton was again the victim of
unfair treatment and a scandal machine
that has dogged her throughout her
long political career.
What sets Hillary apart is that
through it all she just keeps on going
and she doesnt stop caring and she

doesnt stop trying

and she never stops
fighting for us even
if we havent always
appreciated
it,
Obama said. I understand, were a young
country, we are a
restless country. We
Hillary Clinton always like the new
shiny thing. I benefited from that when I was a candidate,
and we take for granted sometimes what
is steady and true. And Hillary Clinton is
steady and she is true.
The remarks were the closest Obama
came to mentioning Clintons rough
weekend, during which she disparaged
half of Trump supporters and then
backtracked somewhat on her remarks.
She also was forced to abruptly leave
an event because of an illness she had
not disclosed. Clinton was caught on
video struggling to stay on her feet.
Her campaign later said she been diag-

Feds: Plan addresses impact

of ocean noise on marine mammals

By Steve Peoples and Jill Colvin

PORTLAND, Maine The federal government says a

new strategy to address the issue of noise in the ocean
will better protect the safety of marine mammals.
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
released its Ocean Noise Strategy Roadmap on Tuesday.
The agency says the roadmap will guide it in managing
ocean noise and its effects on ocean life through the next
10 years.
The roadmap lays out roles for federal government
agencies, researchers, industries and environmental
advocates to play in managing noise in the ocean. NOAA
crafted the plan using more than 85,000 public comment
responses.
Sound plays a key role in the survival of marine animals and can be caused either by human actions or the
oceans natural ecosystem. Whales and dolphins, for
example, use sound to navigate and find food.

Americans got a
raise last year for
first time since 07
By Christopher S. Rugaber
and Jesse J. Holland
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON In a long-awaited sign

that middle-class Americans are finally seeing real economic gains, U.S. households
got a raise last year after seven years of stagnant incomes. Rising pay also lifted the
poorest households, cutting poverty by the
sharpest amount in nearly a half-century.
Higher minimum wages in many states and
tougher competition among businesses to
fill jobs pushed up pay, while low inflation
made those paychecks stretch further. The
figures show that the growing economy is
finally benefiting a greater share of
American households.
The median U.S. households income rose
5.2 percent in 2015 to an inflation-adjusted
level of $56,516, the Census Bureau said
Tuesday. That is the largest one-year gain on
data stretching back to 1967. It is up 7.3
percent from 2012, when incomes fell to a
17-year low.
Still, median incomes remain 1.6 below
the $57,423 reached in 2007. The median is
the point where half of households fall
below and half are above.
The report was superb in almost every
dimension, Larry Mishel, president of the
liberal Economic Policy Institute, said on a
conference call with reporters. This one
year almost single-handedly got us out of the
hole.
Even so, it follows years of tepid pay
gains that contributed to widespread political turmoil, driving insurgent presidential
candidacies from GOP nominee Donald
Trump and Sen. Bernie Sanders. Median
household income remains 2.4 percent
below the peak it reached in 1999.

This one year

almost single-handedly
got us out of the hole.
Larry Mishel, president
of the liberal Economic Policy Institute

The solid gain will likely impact the presidential campaign. Incomes are now higher
than in 2009 when President Obama took
office.
The Census report shows that the increase
was driven by the poorest Americans, who
saw the largest increase. Half of the states
and Washington, D.C., have increased their
minimum wages since 2014, according to
the EPI.
Greater competition for low-wage jobs has
also pushed up wages. The unemployment
rate fell from 6.2 percent to 5.3 percent last
year, and 2.4 million Americans found fulltime, year-round jobs. Thats forced restaurants and retail employers to lift pay to
attract workers.
WalMart, TJX Cos., which owns T.J.
Maxx, and the Gap have all announced pay
increases in the past two years. Starbucks
said in July it would boost pay for all its
employees by 5 percent later this year.
Income for the poorest 10 percent of
households jumped 7.9 percent last year,
while for the wealthiest 10 percent, incomes
rose just 2.9 percent. That narrowed the gap
between the two groups by the largest
amount on record.
The proportion of Americans in poverty
also fell sharply last year, to 13.5 percent
from nearly 14.8 percent. That is the biggest
decline in poverty since 1968. There were
43.1 million people in poverty last year,
3.5 million fewer than in 2014.

Report: Hawaii average

home prices highest in nation

Around the nation

HONOLULU A new report shows Hawaii

has the nations highest average home
prices as the cost of housing in the state has
soared over the last year.
The 2016 Coldwell Banker Home Listing
Report ranked states based on their average
price for a home with four bedrooms and two
bathrooms. Hawaii took the top spot with
average home prices at nearly $905,000.
Thats about $325,000 more than homes in
the second-priciest state, Massachusetts.
The figures represent an increase from the
real estate companys analysis last year,
which found the average price of a four-bedroom home in Hawaii was about $655,000,
Hawaii News Now reported.
Honolulu had the states highest average
home prices this year at $1.2 million. The
city ranked 14th among the nations municipalities, up from 17th in 2015.
The average price of a four-bedroom in
Kapolei was listed at $708,000, up from
$569,000 last year. In Ewa Beach, the average price is $653, 000, compared to
$597,000 last year.

Republicans call tech

experts to testify on Clintons server
WASHINGTON House Republicans are
continuing their attacks on Hillary
Clintons emails by calling for testimony
from the tech expert who set up her private
server and organizing appearances by representatives of the company that maintained
the system.
Bryan Pagliano, a former State
Department computer specialist, is scheduled to testify Tuesday before the Oversight
and Government Reform Committee.
Pagliano refused to answer questions last
year when he appeared before a House panel
investigating the deadly 2012 attacks in
Benghazi, Libya. His lawyers said at the
time that Pagliano did not want to relinquish
his rights under the U.S. Constitutions
Fifth Amendment against self-incrimination.
Republicans last month issued a subpoena
to Platte River Networks, the Denver technology company that maintained the server
after Clinton stepped down as secretary of
state in 2013.

Pyeongtaek, South Korea.

U.S. flies bombers over South Korea

in show of force against North Korea
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

OSAN AIR BASE, South Korea The United States on

Tuesday sent two supersonic bombers streaking over ally
South Korea in a show of force meant to cow North Korea after
its recent nuclear test, and also to settle rattled nerves in the
South.
The B-1B bombers, escorted by U.S. and South Korean jets,
were seen by an Associated Press photographer as they flew
over Osan Air Base, which is 120 kilometers (75 miles) from
the border with North Korea, the worlds most heavily armed.
The bombers were likely to return to Andersen Air Force Base
in Guam without landing in South Korea.
Such flyovers are fairly common when animosity rises on
the Korean Peninsula, which is technically in a state of war
because there has never been a peace treaty to officially end
the 1950-53 Korean War.
South Korea does not have nuclear weapons and relies on
the U.S. nuclear umbrella as a deterrent to North Korea.
Washington also stations more than 28,000 troops in the
South, and tens of thousands more in Japan.
The B-1B doesnt currently carry nuclear weapons under a
disarmament treaty. U.S. Forces Korea wouldnt comment on
the bombers capabilities, but South Korean military officials
and analysts said that they could carry nuclear weapons if
reconfigured.
Hans Kristensen, a nuclear weapons expert with the
Federation of American Scientists, wrote in a blog posted
Tuesday that the last B-1B was stripped of all nuclear equipment in 2011 and he does not consider them nuclear capable
in their current configuration.

BEIRUT With much of Syria calm

for the past 24 hours, a powerful alQaida-linked group
sharply criticized
the U. S. -Russianbrokered cease-fire,
saying Tuesday its
real aim was to keep
President
Bashar
Assad in power.
The
extremist
Bashar Assad group was in talks
with other rebel factions for a possible merger, a move
that could dash Washington and
Moscows hopes of distancing it from
the wider insurgency and sabotage the
truce.
The denunciation of the deal came as
activists and state media said the truce,
which took effect at sunset Monday,
was holding despite some violations.
The Syrian army said it would abide by
the cease-fire until midnight Sunday,
while maintaining its right to defend
itself against any violations.
The truce excludes al-Qaidas affiliate, known as Jabhat Fatah al-Sham,
and the more powerful Islamic State
group, which are both designated terrorist organizations by the United
Nations. The first week will be crucial:
During that time, all fighting between

Cease-fire deal rife with legal questions

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON The deal crafted

by the U.S. and Russia to halt the
Syrian civil war and focus efforts on
rooting out extremists in the country
is rife with legal and liability questions that are fueling Pentagon skepticism about military cooperation
between the two powers, senior U.S.
officials said.
The first hurdle is that Congress
has enacted a law prohibiting any
military cooperation with Moscow
in the wake of Russias annexation
of the Crimea region of Ukraine.
That means the deal that Secretary of
State John Kerry and Russian
Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov
agreed to last week in Geneva first
needs a waiver from a skeptical
Defense Secretary Ash Carter to be
Assads forces and the rebels is to
stop, although Assads forces can continue airstrikes against IS and alQaida-linked militants.
If the calm holds for seven days, the
U.S. and Russian militaries would then
set up a new center to coordinate
strikes against IS and the al-Qaida
affiliate, previously known as the
Nusra Front.

legal.
Another nagging
question
revolves around
whether America
could be held
responsible if a
Russian airstrike
approved by
the U.S. as part of
Ash Carter
the
military
cooperation that is at the heart of
the deal kills civilians. Military
and defense leaders question whether
Russia will be able to force the
Syrian government to uphold the
cease-fire. And they worry that
Moscows lack of precision targeting could result in civilian casualties, even if Russia is attempting to
strike Islamic State militants in
Syria.
The Jabhat Fatah al-Sham statement
came a day after Syrias largest insurgent groups expressed misgivings
over the deal for excluding the alQaida-linked militants, who have been
fighting alongside the rebels against
Assads forces.
A truce in February that lasted several weeks also excluded IS and al-Qaidalinked groups.

Israel denies aircraft harmed after raid in Syria

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

JERUSALEM The Israeli military

struck artillery positions in Syria on
Tuesday after a projectile from that
countrys civil war hit the Israeli-controlled part of the Golan Heights, but
denied a Syrian claim that Syrian
forces shot down two Israeli aircraft.
The incident was the fifth case since
last week in which fighting in Syria

has spilled over into Israel, and the

first since a U.S.-Russia brokered truce
went into effect at sunset on Monday
to try and end the civil war, now in its
sixth year.
Israel has largely remained on the
sidelines of the fighting, but has carried out reprisals on Syrian positions
when errant fire previously landed in
Israel.

Shortly after the air raid, Syrias

armed forces claimed to have shot
down an Israeli warplane and an
unmanned drone along the frontier.
The Israeli military quickly denied
the report, saying that a pair of surface-to-air missiles were fired at its aircraft but missed. At no point was the
safety of IDF (Israel Defense Forces)
aircraft compromised, it said.

That is in part due to the deliberate

There has also been new life to the

The issues are varied, whether it be

Editorial
takes the best path forward to success.
The board also recently lost two of
its members, one to death, one to election to the San Mateo County
Community College District. It is also
losing one of its longtime members,
Judy Bush, to retirement. Running for
two open four-year seats are Daina
Lujan, who was appointed to ll the
late Rick Ochsenhirts seat earlier this
year, and Patricia Murray, who ran
unsuccessfully in 2014. Running for
one two-year seat is Baker, who was
appointed to ll Maurice Goodmans
seat earlier this year, and Scott Grindy,
a former harbormaster for the San
Mateo County Harbor District, whose
wife works for the district.
Both Baker and Grindy are good candidates with a strong grip on the districts circumstances. Either would be a
solid member of the Board of Trustees.

However, we see no reason to take the

reins out of Bakers hands at this
point. He has a temperate and moderate
attitude and a willingness to explore
details and hash out differences of
opinion in an amicable way. When he
ran for a seat on the board in 2014, we
endorsed him as part of a new generation of leadership for the district along
with Murray and current board president Patrick Lucy, and he has proven to
be a quality member of the team. He
asks questions, particularly about dedication of resources, and has a strong
sense of equity and justice without
being disagreeable. This temperament
will only serve the district and its leaders, administrators, teachers, staff,
parents and students well now and into
the future.
Grindy also has the skills to be on
the board with his history of infrastructure and education, and we hope he
will stay involved and run again.
However, Baker is a better choice in
this race, at this time.

Yes on Q

No to rent control

Editor,
Im 32 years old, single and work
for a nonprot. I sincerely hope to
buy a home in San Mateo, but thats
far outside the realm of possibility for
my near future. Measure Q can signicantly ensure my ability, and that of
many fellow San Mateans who rent, to
be able to continue to live in this
beautiful place.
If you are a homeowner, would you
be able to afford to buy your current
home today? Do you remember what is
was like years before you bought,
when you were probably a renter? Im
sure you were working hard, pennypinching and dreaming of your rst
home. The market was probably a lot
different when you bought than what it
is today. Its increasingly impossible
to rent here, let alone buy.
Last year, my rent increased by 22
percent. That hurt. A main benet of
home ownership is that it protects you
from unexpected price hikes. Doesnt
everyone deserve that?
As a renter, I signicantly contribute to my community by serving
on multiple local commissions and
civic organizations. Many of the people that advance our city such as teachers, police ofcers and reghters are
renters, who increasingly cant afford
to be here. Our city needs to have
these benecial citizens live here.
Please vote yes on Measure Q to
keep San Mateo a beautiful place
where all of its citizens can afford to
live with housing equality. We need
this now. I dont know if I can survive
another double-digit rent hike.

Editor,
Your vote is simple. If you didnt
read the full Burlingame/San Mateo
rent control ballot measures, and
you dont know what the proposed
rent control ordinances will actually
do, then you must vote No. Out-oftown special interest groups propose
an unaccountable commission with
ultimate control over private landowners property. Rent Control creates
not a single, solitary new rental unit.
Instead, it results in unkempt rental
units and low-income Section 8 housing zones where illegal drugs, gangs
and crime ourish.
In San Mateo County, only East
Palo Alto has rent control, and in
direct correlation, it was labeled
Murder Captial of the World in the
1990s. Then-interim city manager
Mike Bedwell said: People just drive
into our city, pick up their drugs and
drive out, and you get your murders
along the way. Requiring rich developers and city councils to build 50
percent to 75 percent on-site employee housing for every new
commercial/retail development accomplishes something, but rent control
does not.

Achievement gaps
Y

ou cant expect to solve the problems of a

school without taking into account whats
happening in the community. How
Children Succeed, Paul Tough.
An interesting Meyer political cartoon in the Sept. 2 San
Francisco Chronicle gives the impression that there is no
road to success for kids from poor schools. I was not
sure what was meant about poor schools.
This brought to mind the recent feature in newspapers
about the huge gap in achievement test scores from
California schools. It was lamented that: Students in every
grade and in every ethnic group improved over last school
year, and yet African-American, Latino and economically
disadvantaged children lagged well behind their white,
Asian-American and wealthier peers.
The scores this year on
the California Assessment
of Student Performance and
Progress: 23 percent of economically disadvantaged
students met or exceeded
standards in math, compared
with 56 percent of those
who are not economically
disadvantaged. The scores in
English, though a bit higher, show similar disparity.
Matt Haney, president of the
San Francisco Unied
School District board, said
that the numbers reect damaging forces outside schools, including violence, segregation and disparities in health.
This suggests one important factor that didnt receive
much attention. It was clearly described in an Aug. 26
Chronicle letter to the editor. Jean-Louis Cook of San
Francisco emphasized one important factor not mentioned
family values. Students who come from families where
education is valued, teachers are respected and parents or
guardians are involved in their learning fare signicantly
better than those who do not, he wrote.
Mr. Tough would add: The effect of good parenting is not
just emotional or psychological, the neuroscientists say: it
is biochemical.
Weve all seen the presentations on TV from First 5
California about the importance of talking, reading and
singing to young children and how it develops their brains.
We are told that a childs brain is 80 percent developed by
age 3. Many authors of books about the general welfare of
children agree that nurturant parental involvement in their
childrens lives is essential if the children are to prosper. As
David Walsh, Ph.D. wrote in Selling out Americas
Children: Researchers looking for factors that correlated
with children doing well in life found that parent involvement in school activities, consistent and appropriate discipline, the amount of time parents spend at home with their
children and parental monitoring of childrens activities to
be the most important.
Consider children who come from homes where the caretakers do not have the education, ability or will to do what
is necessary to give their children the kind of upbringing
they need to do well in school and, by the way, to do well in
life. These children are often those whose parents do not
take the responsibility of parenting seriously, often distracted by their own problems while their children are
pathetically neglected. No school can make up for it.
The biggest obstacle to academic success that poor children, especially very poor children, often face: a home and a
community that create high levels of stress, and the absence
of a caregiver that would allow a child to manage that
stress. Tough.
At the end of her wonderful book, Teach Your Children
Well, Madeline Levine, Ph.D. concludes: They need to be
unconditionally loved, allowed to have a creative and curious childhood, encouraged to challenge themselves, disciplined when necessary and valued for the unique set of
skills, interests and capacities they bring into this world.
Parents may be unemployed, often uneducated, possibly
on drugs or alcoholic, unable or unwilling to supply adequate nourishment, nurturing and concern that their children,
to do well in school, require. A child who comes to school
lacking enough sleep, undernourished, unappreciated,
ignored and maybe physically abused will not be able to
learn as well as his peers who are lucky enough to come
from homes where their caretakers value them.
Our schools are not to blame. Schools are dealing with
the results of America selling out its children. This is not to
say that there arent problems in our schools or there arent
things we need to change. ... The fact is that children are
going to school already wounded by a society that undermines positive values. Teachers cant teach as effectively
because their hands are full dealing with students social and
emotional problems that hinder learning. Walsh.
We clearly should invest more in our educational system.
Schools can and should do more to prepare youngsters for
productive employment, but they will continue to fall short
of the mark unless we support parents and give them the
time and resources to do a better job by their children. Our
educational system cannot compensate for the tasks that
overburdened parents can no longer perform. Sylvia

Stocks tumble on worries about the Fed

By Marley Jay

DOW JONES INDUSTRIALS

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK U. S. stocks

abruptly changed course again
Tuesday and took large losses.
Investors worried about the possibility of a weaker global economy
and tried to anticipate the Federal
Reserves plans for interest rates.
Energy companies fell with the
price of oil after a leading industry
group said demand for oil is down
more than it previously thought.
Stocks sank over the first few
hours of trading and never
regained their footing. The price
of oil fell 3 percent after the
International Energy Agencys
remarks about oil demand. The
group expects weaker growth
because of a more pronounced
slowdown in the global economy.
Bond yields jumped and phone
company dropped. Apple was one
of the few bright spots after TMobile said preorders for Apples
newest iPhones are strong.
After two months of unusual
calm on the markets, stocks have
whipsawed over the last few days.

Wells Fargo cutting sales goals in wake of $185M fine

By Ken Sweet
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK Wells Fargo will

cut its aggressive product sales
goals for retail bankers, as it faces
$185 million in fines and a damaged reputation after allegations
that it opened millions of unauthorized accounts to meet those
targets.
The sales goals will be eliminated by Jan. 1, the San Franciscobased bank announced Tuesday.
That doesnt end the matter,
though, as Wells Fargos chief
executive has been called to
appear before the Senate Banking
Committee next week to answer

By Stephen Whyno

Sharks was given the leadership role for the
Americans at the World Cup, which begins
Saturday in Toronto. Its not a distinction
he takes lightly even if hes not quite sure
why coaches and players chose him over the
likes of 2014 Olympic captain Zach Parise,

New York Rangers captain Ryan McDonagh

and others.
Ive got a lot of respect for all these
guys, and a lot of guys could do the job,
Pavelski said Tuesday. Our performance
last year mightve helped and the success we
had leading (San Jose deep) in the playoffs.

Those little things might help.

Everyone else knows, and the answer is
simple. Pavelski plays the game the way
the U.S. wants to play it. Committed, gritty
hockey, with skill and a straightforward
style for coach John Tortorella and his staff.
Theres not a lot of fluff to him,
Tortorella said. He just plays. Hes not on
the outside (of the rink). Hes skilled. Hes
in the blue (crease). He is a complete player,
and thats probably one of the best compliments you can give a guy is the word complete and he is that.

Scots take down Dons

By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Scott Howard may only be in his rst season as Carlmonts girls tennis coach, but
he knew how important Tuesdays Peninsula
Athletic League Bay Division match against
host Aragon was.
Its no secret were in a battle with three
or four other teams (for a spot in the PAL
tournament), said Howard, who had spent
the previous 12 years coaching in the college ranks, most recently at Holy Names
University in Oakland.
The Carlmont-Aragon tennis rivalry
both the girls and boys is arguably
the most intense in the PAL. It seems every
year the two teams are jockeying for one of
the three Bay Division spots in the PAL
tournament which determines the
leagues second automatic bid to the Central
Coast Section tournament. The fourth spot
in the PAL tournament goes to the Ocean
Division champion.
There was no let down in the intensity
department Tuesday. With players for each
team enthusiastically cheering for their
teammates, the match evolved into one of
attrition.
But in the end, it was the Scots who prevailed, 5-2.
We knew it be just like this, Howard
said. We have some girls who grind.
In the end, it was the Scots No. 3 doubles
team of Pauline Sy and Jessica Ma that
earned the winning point, needing three sets
to get past Aragons Yasmina Alouf and
Anouk Seibalescu 3-6, 6-1, 7-5.
Before the third set, I heard we had three
(team) points, said Sy, acknowledging that
it there was a bit of pressure to clinch the
match for her team.
There was a little pressure, but I thought
it might be more annoying to them (the
Aragon duo across the net).
Then, when the players from each team
crowded around the No. 3 doubles court and
started cheering each point, all four players
knew what was on the line.

Iraqi-American As rally in eighth, beat K.C.

finishes journey
at Paralympics
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

By Anna Pitingolo
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

RIO DE JANEIRO Its been

quite a couple of weeks for Ahmed
Shak, the lone U.S. powerlifter at
the Rio Paralympics.
His wife delivered the couples
second son early, shortly before the
games
began
last Wednesday,
and Shak, an
Iraqi immigrant,
competed in his
second and he
says nal
Paralympics.
Despite a seventh-place nAhmed Shafik ish in the 80kilogram (176pound) weight class on Monday,
lifting 172 kilograms (379
pounds), Rio was a satisfying end to
a long journey for Shak.
It was overwhelming for me
because everybody was watching me
and expecting good results and its a
big weight on my back to be the
only lifter from the United States,
Shak said.
Born in Baghdad, Shak contracted polio as a baby, which weakened
his legs. Despite the disability, he
can walk normally and do many
other activities.
Still, he qualied for the
Paralympics in powerlifting, the
games single weightlifting discipline, in which competitors lie on a
bench and raise hundreds of pounds
just with their upper bodies.
Shak was inspired to rst start
weightlifting when growing up and
watching his father, Abdul, compete
and set records for the Iraqi national
team.
Shak followed in his fathers
footsteps and qualied for the
national team that competed in the
1998 IPC World Championships.

But he ed the country after the Iraqi

Olympic authorities, led by Saddam
Husseins son, Uday, imprisoned
and abused Shak and his teammates
for unsatisfactory performances.
He then went to Jordan before
making his way to the United States
in 2001, where he was given refugee
status. He didnt start powerlifting
again until 2007.
I wanted to have fun, thats
always my main motivation, I
always try and have fun while Im
competing and representing the
United States, Shak said. And I
think this games were much better
than London because I got good
results this time and it meant a lot
for me.
A U.S. Army veteran and mechanical engineer, Shak is now settled
in Tucson, Ariz. His wife was due to
deliver their second son during the
Paralympics. But the baby arrived
early, and Shak was able to be at
the birth.
Ive been seeing him every day
through video chat and everythings
good, he said.
After his nal lift, the 43-year-old
Shak tugged on his singlet and
pointed to the American ag while
the mostly Brazilian crowd cheered,
as they do for most competitors.
Moments later, Shak said these
games were his last competition,
and he would be retiring from powerlifting. But he intends to stay close
to the sport and work alongside
coaches to help teach the next generation of lifters.
Hopefully by 2020 we get more
lifters on the team because one lifter
in this Paralympics from the greatest country in the world, in my opinion, isnt enough, he said.
But before all that, Shak is excited to get back home to his newly
expanded family and relish all the
support he has received over the
past couple of days.

Giants gut-punched again

By Janie McCauley

SAN FRANCISCO Ryan

Schimpf hit a go-ahead three-run
homer with two outs in the ninth
inning, and the San Francisco
Giants bullpen gave up a lead and
chance to gain ground on the division-leading Dodgers in a 6-4 loss
to the San Diego Padres on
Tuesday night.
Hunter Strickland (3-3) started
the ninth and allowed two runs,
three singles and a bases-loaded
walk to Wil Myers, then Steven
Okert entered to try to get the final
out. Schimpf clobbered the fourth
offering and sent it into the centerfield bleachers for his 19th homer.
Jake Smith (1-0) pitched the
eighth for his first career victory

Padres 6, Giants 4
after San Diego claimed him from
the Giants in July, then Kevin
Quackenbush finished for his second save as some Giants fans
booed.
Angel Pagan homered leading
off the fifth and Gorkys Hernandez
also homered for the Giants, who
stayed four games back of NL
West-leading Los Angeles after the
Dodgers lost earlier at the New
York Yankees. San Francisco
remained percentage points ahead
of the Mets for the top NL wildcard spot.
Hunter Pence hit a run-scoring
double and Brandon Crawford had
an RBI single for San Francisco,
which will host St. Louis for a
four-game weekend set and still

must play six with the Dodgers

among the final 18 games of the
season.
Suarez, who has bounced
between the rotation and bullpen,
had been in position to win for the
first time since June 23 at
Pittsburgh a span of six starts
and 10 outings. The right-hander
gave up one run and six hits,
struck out one and walked two in
five innings.
Shut out on five hits a night earlier, the Giants got a unique lineup
from manager Bruce Bochy and
not all by design, either.
The Giants lost their fifth

which they had been outscored 2614 after winning the initial nine
matchups of 2016.

49ers defense shuts down struggling Rams

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

and San Francisco outgained the Rams 320

yards to 185.

SANTA CLARA A Chip Kelly-coached

team is usually synonymous with a fastpaced and prolific offense.
But in his first game as San Franciscos
coach on Monday night, Kellys defense
pitched its first opening week shutout in
franchise history as the 49ers got a 28-0
win over the Los Angeles Rams.
We felt good about our defense going
into this game, but you never know until
you get a chance to go out there, Kelly
said. To hold (Todd) Gurley, who I think is
one of the top backs in the league, to under
50 yards, I think thats a good day for us
defensively.
The game plan was to limit Gurley and
force quarterback Case Keenum to beat the
49ers through the air. Gurley finished with
47 yards rushing on 17 carries while
Keenum completed just 49 percent of his
passes for 130 yards.
If you cant stop the run in this league,
you struggle to stop anything, defensive
coordinator Jim ONeil said. Again, the
guys up front did a great job. We played
good team defense. Guys executed.
Los Angeles had as many punts (10) as
first downs. Keenum was intercepted twice

NaVorro Bowman registered an interception, leaping to snag a deflection by defensive lineman Quinton Dial in the second
quarter. The turnover led to the 49ers second touchdown of the game.
We went out expecting the Rams to play
better than they did, Bowman said,
expecting the Rams to get the ball in their
playmakers hands. And the coaches did a
great job with preparing us for this week. ...
We did everything that we were supposed to
do.
The 49ers say their strengths defensively
are depth and versatility. They rotated
Gerald Hodges and Ray-Ram Armstrong at
inside linebacker Monday in the heart of
their 3-4 defense next to Bowman. They
also tried three-safety formations, allowing
second-year standout Jaquiski Tartt to play
16 snaps in a specialized role roving the
middle of the field.
It helps when youre trying to match up,
and its a match-up league, Kelly said.
People want to go big, we have the big personnel to go up against you. If youre going
to go little, I think we can match up with
you when you go little.

Raiders cornerback understands being benched

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ALAMEDA Deciding to go for a gamewinning two-point conversion in the final

minute might not have been the boldest
move Raiders coach Jack Del Rio made in
Sundays season-opening win over the New
Orleans Saints.
Benching $38 million cornerback Sean
Smith midway through the third quarter and
sitting him for the remainder of the afternoon clearly stood out and raised eyebrows
in Oaklands locker room as well as around
the NFL.
Smith was one of the marquee offseason
additions made by general manager Reggie
McKenzie yet Del Rio didnt hesitate to pull
Smith after he failed to get a hand on Saints
wideout Brandin Cooks and was beaten for a
98-yard touchdown.
Its a move Smith agreed with, even if it
came at his expense, and he said he was not
surprised when it happened.
Not at all, Smith said Tuesday. I was
getting killed, Im not going to lie to you.
It was getting bad out there. I was costing
our team points. Coach did what he had to
do. Obviously I would have loved to stay in

Woman pins sexual battery

on North Carolina football player
RALEIGH, N. C. A magistrate has
issued an arrest warrant for a North Carolina
football player accused of sexual battery and
assault on a female in February.
The warrant issued Tuesday accuses Allen
Artis, a 21-year-old junior linebacker from
Marietta, Georgia, of two misdemeanors
against UNC-Chapel Hill sophomore
Delaney Robinson. The warrant says he had
sex with her while she was mentally inca-

pacitated and physically helpless.

The Associated Press typically doesnt
identify alleged victims of sexual assault,
but Robinson held a news conference, saying she filed for the misdemeanor charges
after police and prosecutors indicated there
wasnt enough evidence to pursue felony
charges. Her lawyer says campus police
botched questioning and the handling of a
rape test.
Orange County District Attorney Jim
Woodall says the case is still pending.

USC bans Masina, Hill from

team activities amid investigation
LOS ANGELES Southern California has
suspended sophomore linebackers Osa
Masina and Don Hill from team activities
while the players are under investigation for
sexual assault.
USC coach Clay Helton made the
announcement during his weekly conference call Tuesday.
Masina and Hill already had been barred
from games, but allowed to participate in
practices and team meetings.
Masina initially was suspended before the
Trojans season opener against Alabama in
Texas. Hill made the trip to Texas with the
team, but was sent home a day later for an
undisclosed violation of team rules.

million signing bonus to lure Smith away
from Kansas City.
Smith got off to a decent enough start in
New Orleans but struggled as the game went
on, allowing a 49-yard completion before
the Saints franchise-record 98-yarder from
quarterback Drew Brees to Cooks.
Thats when Del Rio made the decision to
bench Smith in favor of former first-round
draft pick DJ Hayden. Hayden was flagged
for two pass interference penalties that
helped sustain touchdown drives by the
Saints after Smith was pulled from the
game.
I have to make those kinds of calls and
guys have to trust my judgement, Del Rio
said. Im going to always do what I think is
best for the football team and thats what it
was.
Smith, who had 41 pass breakups and five
interceptions during his three years in
Kansas City, had no qualms with the decision.
Just a bad day overall, bad technique,
Smith said. Thats pretty much what it was,
bad technique. You want to go out there with
a game plan and execute and thats something that I didnt do.
Masina and Hill are under investigation
for an alleged assault July 14 at an off-campus apartment, court documents say. Masina
also is under investigation for an alleged
assault on the same woman July 26 in Utah,
his home state.

Clemson coach would not

discipline player for anthem protest
CLEMSON, S.C. Dabo Swinney says
he would not discipline a Clemson player
for protesting the national anthem because
just like San Francisco 49ers Colin
Kaepernick, they have that right.
But Swinney said Tuesday he disagrees
with Kaepernicks actions because it creates
divisiveness among people and muddies the
message. After Swinney was asked if he
would discipline one of the players on the
fifth-ranked Tigers for an anthem protest he
said Kapernick should have found another
way to express his opinion without the
polarizing gesture.
The coach noted that too often things get
painted with a broad brush and people take
sides and bar potential dialogue about
issues. The coach says he hates to see what
is going on with our country.
Kapernick has protested what because of
the oppression of black people and people
of color in the U.S.

MILLS
Continued from page 11
opener at Mills.
Mills, historically, has been shorter, Chiu
said. But I try to run them faster in that
respect.
Chiu takes over for longtime coach Polly
Wiard this season, and has plenty of experience
to draw on when it comes to Vikings volleyball.
A graduate of Mills in 2011, who played setter
for Wiard, Chiu herself stands 5-feet tall. But her
ability to cover the floor has become a staple of
the Mills program. And her team this season is
no different.
What is changing with Chiu at the helm is the
instillation of a more intricate system, with
Mills actually running a playbook this season,
something the team never did under Wiard.
I show them a few examples, push my setters
to be creative, and push as many hitters as I can
to get involved in the offense, Chiu said. I try
to utilize as many players as a I can both offensively and defensively.
The array of attackers showed up on Tuesday.
Vivian Deng totaled a team-high 10 kills, but
right behind her was Lexine Francisco with nine
kills, Kellie Fong with eight and Taina Livai
with seven. Perhaps more importantly, setter
Justine Sun was feeding off the group having
fun while distributing the ball.
We actually didnt run a lot of plays last year,
but (this year) we adjusted really quickly, Deng

roaring back to win the match. Alouf and
Seibalescu won the rst set rather easily, but
Sy and Ma ipped it in the second. In the
third, the Aragon duo jumped out to a 3-0 lead
and were up 5-3 before Carlmont began its
comeback and won four straight games to
take the match.
Ma, however, did not feel condent until

said. Its actually really fun running them.

Sun added three dump kills, but where the senior shined was from the service line. The
Vikings totaled 28 match aces, with Sun scoring a match-high 10. She set the tone by opening the match with four straight aces to open an
early lead in Game 1.
Thats how they run off, Chiu said. Thats
how they get energy.
While South City (0-1, 0-3) started slow,
first-year head coach Anthony Bongs team didnt go down without a fight. The Warriors were
in disarray early, especially with the absence of
regular setter Makella Kamelamela. Once setters
Carla Ventura and Emily Kwong got the
Warriors 6-2 offense turned around though,
they quickly rallied back.
Im really proud of them, Bong said. With
the primary setter being out, everybody just
stepped up.
The Warriors tied it at 5-5 on a block by
Nevaeh Miller then pushed the tie to 13-13. But
Mills went on a 12-3 run to close out the win in
the opening set, relying on dominant service
looks. Francisco totaled three aces in the set,
Deng had two and Fong one. South City totaled
just three team kills in the set.
In Game 2, South City got creative with its
attack to even the match up at 1-1. Tied 18-18,
junior outside hitter Lafu Malepeai put the
Warriors in front with a flat-footed kill off the
left side. Nevaeh Miller followed with a twohanded drop shot of the right side. Then clinging to a 20-19 lead, South City junior Jerlene
Miller produced a reverse bump that fell for a
point.
she and Sy were one game away from victory.
I felt momentum was on our side at 6-5,
Ma said. 5-5 was still nerve-wracking.
The win at No. 3 doubles, along with
Snehal Pandis three-set victory over
Sagrika Jawadi, gave the Scots their fourth
and fth points.
Only a win from Aragons Diana Gong at
No. 1 singles prevented the nal team score
from being completely one sided. The junior
faced Carlmont freshman Annika Lin who
appears to be the heir apparent to the top
singles spot in the PAL.

At one point, I was down three match
points, Gong said. I just thought about

relied on some of my power and my serve.
My serve helped as well.
Despite the loss, everyone was impressed
with Lins game. When Aragon coach Dave
Owdom told his players Lin was a only a
freshman, they gasped.
[Lin is] the real deal, Howard said. That
was a high-quality match. [Gong] earned
it.

Nguyen was nearly as good, winning 6-1, 61.

But after those two Carlmont victories, the
momentum appeared to swing in Aragons
favor.
We were down in the other ve matches,
Howard said. It was tough. We werent playing very well at doubles.
The tenor of the match really turned at No.
1 doubles, where the Aragon tandem of Nora
Liu and Jaime Wang held a 4-3 lead in the rst

But following a controversial point, the
Aragon duo appeared to lose their focus and
Carlmonts Bambot and Gittoes pounced.
They went on to win the next three games to
take the set 6-4 and then blitzed their opponents in the second, posting a 6-0 victory.
The mental part (at No. 1 doubles), thats
something they need to work on, Owdom
said. This was a match I thought we could
win. Weve got to get better.

Packers sign Bakhtiari to contract extension

2009 Serra grad reportedly inks four-year deal, worth up to $51.67 million
By Genaro C. Armas
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MILWAUKEE Packers left tackle David Bakhtiari has

signed a contract extension to stay in Green Bay, and a person familiar with the talks said it is a four-year deal worth up
to $51.67 million.
The person spoke to the Associated Press on condition of
anonymity on Tuesday because details of the extension
have not been announced.
General manager Ted Thompson announced the signing
on Tuesday without releasing terms. NFL.com first reported
the extension for the lineman who protects quarterback
Aaron Rodgers blind side.
Bakhtiari has been a starter up front since his rookie season after being drafted in the fourth round in 2013 out of
Colorado.
The signing comes less than two weeks after the Packers
cut veteran left guard Josh Sitton , who signed with

PAVELSKI
Continued from page 1
Dont confuse complete with Pavelski making up for a
lack of production with intangibles. Few players produce quite
like him.
Only Alex Ovechkin has more NHL goals over the past three
seasons than Pavelskis 116. Now 32, Pavelski is perhaps no
longer one of the most underappreciated players in hockey. As
Tortorella puts it, Pavelski is not a flashy guy, but he does
everything in the game: offensively, defensively. He does
everything really well.
Complete is the kind of word Pavelski wants to hear about
himself because it means hes doing his job well, all of his
jobs. He will be a top-six center for the U.S. but should also be
relied on as a key piece of the power play and the penalty kill.
Thats how he wants it.
You want to play in all the zones. I like taking faceoffs, I
like blocking a shot, forechecking, Pavelski said. And at the

In announcing Sittons release on

wasnt easy but done with a focus on
what is best for the team and the growth
of the offensive line.
The 2016 season was the final year of
David Bakhtiari Bakhtiaris rookie deal.
The Packers also have financial decisions to make up front with right guard T.J. Lang and center
JC Tretter after this season. Tretter took over as the starter
in training camp following a hamstring injury to Corey
Linsley.
Lane Taylor replaced Sitton at left guard.
The revamped line played relatively well in the seasonopening, 27-23 win over Jacksonville. A Week 2 matchup

tougher test.

trying to help your team.
No player had more ice time or goals in last seasons playoffs than Pavelski, who averaged 20:46 per game and scored
14 times while leading the Sharks to the Stanley Cup Final.
And being captain in San Jose came with its own challenges as
beloved veteran Joe Thornton was demoted to an alternate but
remained a big voice in the locker room.
That experience showcased Pavelskis leadership, but hes
no stranger to international hockey. He also played for the
U.S. at the 2010 and 2014 Olympics.
Former St. Louis Blues captain David Backes called Pavelski
an awesome choice to fill the captains role.
Hes experienced, calm, level-headed, not afraid to say
something when it needs to be said, Backes said. He knows
his position in the league and on this team and hes certain of
that and you see that confidence in him. ... Hes going to be the
guy with the C on his sweater and lead us on the ice, off the
ice with his speech, with his example what he does every single shift. From that, we expect to follow and have great success.

January, chances are slim the Republicans will act. GOP legislative leaders, who have veto-proof majorities in both
chambers, are committed to costly court ghts over the law
and contend passing it was the right thing to do.
GOP House Speaker Tim Moore didnt respond to messages seeking comment, and the ofce of Republican Senate
leader Phil Berger said he was traveling and unavailable.
McCrory, who is locked in a tight race for re-election,
issued a statement decrying the NCAA decision and saying
the legal system will ultimately decide the issue.

Hop growers look to new parts of U.S. to slake thirst for crop
By Patrick Whittle
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

GORHAM, Maine Geoff Keating

grows a prized plant at the northeastern
edge of the country, some 3,000 miles
away from the region of America most
associated with his crop hops.
Americans growing thirst for bitter, flavor-packed styles of beer has brought an
unprecedented demand for hops, so growers
are looking to new places to harvest its
flowers.
Hops are used to provide bitterness,
aroma and flavor to beer. It the U.S., the
vast majority are grown in Washington
state, with significant numbers grown in
Oregon and Idaho. But hop growers in
states like Michigan, New York and Maine,
where Geoff Keating runs the Hop Yard farm
in Gorham and Fort Fairfield, are starting to
ramp up production.
The growth dovetails with craft beers
growth, and its passion for using local

ingredients. As far as Maine-grown hops,

anything done at good quality thats coming out of Maine is being used by brewers, Keating said. We have limited supply.
The demand for hops is high, in part,
because of Americas obsession with
India pale ales, which use large
amounts of hops to create flavors and aromas that recall
fruit and pine. Total U.S.
hop acreage grew by
almost 20 percent to
more than 53,000 acres
this year, according to
the Hop Growers of
America. And brewers
still often gripe about
shortages of some hop
varieties.
In the U.S., the amount of
acreage outside of the Pacific Northwest
states grew from less than 900 in 2014 to
more than 1,200 last year to nearly 2,100

this year, the growers association

noted. Michigans acreage doubled to
650 this year, and Wisconsins grew
by nearly 75 percent to almost 300
acres.
We are certainly getting a lot of calls
from people saying they would like to
be hop growers, said Jaki Brophy,
spokeswoman for the growers association. There has been an interest
in growing outside of the Pacific
Northwest.
Prices for hops have also
been high in recent years,
even as the total amount of
hop acreage and pounds of
hops produced hits record
highs. The price of hops
can vary widely based on
the variety there are
hundreds, some of which
are proprietary but the
average price of U.S. hops
rose from $3.67 to $4.38 per

pound last year.

The availability of hops can be a concern
for brewers, especially those who trade in
hoppy beer, and local growing can help
make a difference, said Tim Adams, brewmaster of Oxbow Beer, in Portland, Maine.
The collective palate of the world is way
into very hoppy beers IPAs and double
IPA, Adams said. Its a naturally limited
resource and demand seems to be increasing
at a rate that is much greater than supply.
The production outside of the Pacific
Northwest hasnt yet reached the level
where it can make a dramatic impact on the
national hop trade. And big brewers like
Anheuser-Busch, which are the rival of
craft beer and take up much more of the U.S.
beer market, are potentially less impacted
by fluctuations in the availability of hops.
Anheuser-Busch also operates its own
hop farms, in the U. S. , Germany and
Argentina. The growth of hops in places
like Michigan and Maine is unlikely to
affect the company or other beer giants.

Though some expressed reservations
regarding components of the innovative
building design, as well as the potential to
create traffic congestion along the region
spanning east of Highway 101, many
seemed generally amenable to the transformative project. No decision was made at
the meeting, and the project will return
later for further review by city officials.
I have some concerns about the architecture but at the same time Im very excited about this potentially very bold statement, said Commissioner Richard
Terrones.
Architect Noberto Nardi and developer
Agustin Maxemi proposed to erect neighboring eight- and nine-story buildings to
house a collective 238,162 square feet of

A handful of residents spoke out about

capacity.
I think it is very exciting to see some
development on the Bayfront, he said.
Former councilman John Root expressed
a similar sentiment, in his advocacy for
the project.
We have got a real opportunity and this
is really something special, he said,
while also acknowledging the potential for
the project to cause traffic congestion.
Bobbi Benson, a Burlingame resident,
said she too supported the project, but
advocated for the developer to invest in
improvements to the Bayfront trail to
enhance connectivity for bikers and pedestrians.
This fabulous, unique, undeniably wonderful project will be a great draw for
Burlingame, she said. But how do we get
to it? We want that Bay Trail finished. We

Then there is the orange paint.

The city has also dispatched Public
Works inspectors to spray gobs of bright
orange paint on sidewalks in White Oaks
to denote the so-called hazards, prompting
outrage from the entire neighborhood,
Castle said.
Public Works Director Jay Walter said
most of the complaints from a lone individual on the citys website using Inform
San Carlos were from May to July.
There were 230 requests to inspect sidewalks, Walter said.
The city responded to every one of them
and they were all determined to need
repairs, Walter said.
We wouldnt mark them if we didnt feel
the feel there was a need to make the
repairs, Walter said.

The city could be liable if someone trips

and falls, he said.
Castle supports Olberts idea and wants
city officials to pay less attention to the
cyberbully.
Castle wants the city to eliminate the
anonymous aspect of Inform San Carlos
and even demanded that the city apologize
to residents who have been bullied by the
online troll.
Olbert proposed last year the city set
aside about $60,000 annually to pay for
half the cost of a residents sidewalk
repairs.
At $4,000 a fix, Castle guesses the city
has sent out approximately $1 million
worth of repair notices so far.
Some cities do share the cost of repairs
but technically state law says the burden to

fix is on the property owner.

The Magical Bridge Playground at
Mitchell Park in Palo Alto is designed to

wrote.
When given the chance to play side by
side inclusively, children with disabilities
enjoy a lifetime of greater acceptance by
their peers, balanced and satisfying relationships and show marked progress

It also helps individuals with disabilities to improve social skills, motor

wrote.
The park in Redwood City will have several zones to play in including the
Innovation Zone that will have interactive

space to serve as an amenity for residents
or nature lovers.
But not everyone heaped praise on the
project, as commission Chair Will Loftis
said he did not support the design.
Im just not sold on the architecture, he
said.
Alternatively,
Commissioner
Jeff
DeMartini credited the applicants for taking a comprehensive approach to collecting community feedback on the project,
suggesting nearly 500 residents and city
officials have been invited to discuss the
development.
So much thinking has gone into this, I
dont know I could say the same thing
about any other project in town, he said.
DeMartini said initially he was skeptical
of the modern design, as he believed it
resembled a project potentially suited to be
the new home of the Golden State Warriors
basketball team, but has since come around
to the modern architecture.
After spending perhaps the last year
with the general plan update and a ton of
time with the Bayshore and thinking about
the Bayshore, it slowly grew on me, he
said. Its an interesting, iconic design.

Highway from the Hyatt Regency hotel.
All buildings on the site would be demolished to make way for the new facility.
So as to not detract from the beauty of
the natural surrounding environment, the
applicant expressed interest in erecting the
project into an rounded shell shape with a
glass wall looking onto the Bay and a view
corridor for pedestrians.
The applicant proposed to offer 948
parking spaces spread throughout the heart
of the buildings, raising concerns for
Terrones who said he wished the innards of
the building would be used for a purpose
other than vehicle storage.
This project as bold and dramatic of
an experience as it is it is three and four
stories of parking, he said.
He noted the creativity of the architect is
limited in some regard, because a project
attracting so many employees will require
a considerable amount of parking spaces.
In all though, Terrones lauded the ambition of the architect to rejuvenate a portion
of the city many residents have complained is not being used to its highest

But court decisions have left some room

for interpretation, prompting Olbert to
propose cost sharing.
Olbert said $60,000 is a drop in the
bucket for a city that routinely runs multimillion surpluses.
Offloading the entire cost of these often
costly repairs onto property owners is
unfair, Olbert wrote on the petition.
One San Carlos resident, Karen Kline,
responded to Olberts petition by saying
she got a bill for more than $6,000 to fix
sidewalk cracks that were there since

Lemon squares can be stored at room temperature for a day or in the refrigerator for several days, in a tightly covered
container with a piece of wax or parchment paper between each layer.

Lemon bar fans, you know who you are

By Katie Workman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

There are certain baked goods that

elicit a fierce loyalty among fans.
They bring out strong feelings about
how they should be prepared (often the
same way they were prepared in said
fans childhoods). And someone elses
failure to appreciate them can be met
with shock and confusion.
Lemon tarts, or lemon bars as they
are also known, are such a baked good.
People who love them, love them. I
once spent a long time making my
grandfather a chocolate cake from a
famous recipe, and after he finished his
slice, he said to me, You know what I
like?
What? I said (expecting a compliment on the rich filling, the moist
cake, something like that).
Lemon, he said wistfully.
The filling in these squares, or bars,
is a bit tart I dont see the point of
too-sweet lemon squares but not
confrontational. Adding a couple
tablespoons of heavy cream offers a
silkier texture to the filling, and a
smoother
citrus
experience.
Sometimes lemon zest is added to the
filling, and while I love the extra burst
of citrus, Im more in love with a super
smooth filling, so I skip it. But you
can add a teaspoon or so of zest if you
like.
If you want to gild the lily, serve

these with some sweetened whipped

cream on the side.
These lemon squares can be stored at
room temperature for a day or in the
refrigerator for several days, in a tightly covered container with a piece of
wax or parchment paper between each
layer. Dont dust them with confectioners sugar until just before serving.

LEMON SQUARES
Start to finish time:
Servings: Makes 15 large squares
Crust
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon kosher or coarse salt
3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons (1 3/4
sticks) cold unsalted butter, cut into
small pieces
Filling
5 large eggs
2 1/2 cups granulated sugar
1 cup fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons heavy cream
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup confectioners sugar for dusting
Preheat the oven to 325 F. Butter a 9by-13-inch pan or spray it with nonstick cooking spray, and line the bottom with a piece of parchment paper
cut to fit cleanly on the bottom of the
pan but hang over the two long sides
(you will use this to lift out the squares
once they are baked and cooled).
In a food processor, combine the

flour, confectioners sugar and salt.

Add the butter and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse cornmeal (or you
can cut the butter into the flour mixture
in a bowl using two knives, a pastry
cutter or your fingers). Transfer the
mixture to the pan and press it evenly
into the bottom. Bake 15 to 18 minutes until golden and a bit firm to the
touch.
Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine the eggs and granulated sugar, and
whisk or beat with an electric mixer
until smooth. Beat in the lemon juice
and cream, and then beat in the flour,
until very smooth. When the crust is
golden and set, pour in the filling,
return the pan to the oven and bake for
25 to 35 minutes, until it doesnt jiggle at all when you gently shake the
pan. Let cool completely on a wire
rack to room temperature.
Run a knife around the edge of the
pan, and cut the bars into 15 (or more)
squares. Remove the bars with a spatula, or carefully use the overhanging
edges of the parchment to smoothly
lift out the lemon bars.
Place the 1/4 cup confectioners
sugar into a small sieve and dust it over
the lemon bars just before serving.

BRATTLEBORO, Vt. The town has struck out in its

attempt to bring home the bacon Kevin Bacon, that is.
Brattleboro wanted the actor to visit
for its third annual Baconfest, a celebration of all things related to the fatty
cured pork strips.
But he tweeted his regrets on Monday,
saying in a video that he wont be able to
make it to Baconfest because hes filming in Vancouver. He said he appreciated
the hilarious effort that went into trying to get him there.
Kevin Bacon
The Brattleboro Area Chamber of
Commerce launched a social media blitz
last month inviting Bacon to Saturdays event. Residents
have been photographed with a life-size cardboard cutout of
him called Flat Bacon as part of the campaign.
Flat Bacon even appeared with Democratic U.S. Sen.
Patrick Leahy and Democratic Gov. Peter Shumlin, who
recorded a video urging the actor to show up.
Kevin, Vermont has the coolest little town in America
called Brattleboro. I was born there. I still love it,
Shumlin said. Theyre going to have a bacon festival. It
will be the best bacon and the best little town in America,
and we need you.
When asked about the likelihood of the real Bacon attending, the chambers executive director, Kate OConnor, told
WCAX-TV: Pretty much zero, but we thought its worth a
try and its sort of kooky enough that perhaps theres a
chance.

Young chocolate entrepreneurs

emerge in worlds cocoa leader
ABIDJAN, Ivory Coast The smell of chocolate wafts
from the door of an artisanal shop that would not be out of
place in Brooklyn. Founder Dana Mroueh takes in the sun
while riding her stationary bicycle-turned-cocoa grinder on
an ambitious journey that began just four months ago.
She wants to introduce Ivory Coast, the worlds leading
cocoa producer, to the taste of processed cocoa beans, in the
form of chocolate bars that she says are 100 percent local.
The 27-year-old Mroueh is among an emerging group of
chocolate makers who are trying to show this steamy West
African country that it can take more control over its cocoa
industry, from bean to bar, and win over the local market.
I think its criminal for the planters and for the Ivorians
who dont know the taste of chocolate, said Mroueh, an
Ivorian of Lebanese descent who grew up watching her
grandfather, a former pastry shop owner, have a difficult
time selling his chocolate. We need to emphasize the value
of the Ivorian territory.
Her MonChoco Chocolate bars are priced for upper-class
consumers, with prices of around $5 apiece and experimental flavors including chili and sea salt.
Fellow chocolate maker Axel Emmanuel is aiming at the
other end of the market. The 32-year-old says he wants to
dispel the myth that chocolate is exclusively for the rich.
Weve decided to officially make the most inexpensive
chocolate bar on the African continent, said Emmanuel,
who was recognized by the countrys president as the 2015
Young Entrepreneur of the Year. His Instant Chocolate bars
go for about 30 cents apiece.

TRUMP
Continued from page 1
the biggest expenses many American
families face, surpassing the cost of
college and even housing in many
states.
We need working mothers to be
fairly compensated for their work, and
to have access to affordable, quality
child care for their kids, Trump said in
Aston, Pennsylvania. These solutions must update laws passed more
than half a century ago when most
women were still not in the labor
force.
Trump proposed guaranteeing six
weeks of paid maternity leave to
employees whose employers dont
offer leave already. The campaign says
the payments would be provided
through existing unemployment
insurance though it has yet to spell
out how the system would cover those
costs.
Trumps Democratic opponent,
Hillary Clinton, has called for 12
weeks parental leave for both mothers
and fathers paid for by taxes on the
wealthy.
Trump previously proposed reducing
child care costs by allowing parents to
fully deduct the average cost of child
care from their taxes. On Tuesday, he
expanded that proposal to allow families with a stay-at-home parent to qualify for the deduction and to include
costs associated with caring for elderly
dependent relatives.

CLINTON
Continued from page 1
blood clot behind her right knee,
prompting the White House doctor to
recommend hospitalization and a week
of bed rest.
Determined to stay on the campaign
trail, Clinton settled on an alternative:
A nurse would travel with her to administer the medicine needed to monitor
her health. She kept her condition a
secret from nearly everyone but her
Secret Service detail, alerted only
because an injury could have been lifethreatening.
Very few people knew about it at the
time, recalled Dr. Connie Mariano in
her autobiography. Her staff thought
she had pulled a muscle exercising.
Nearly two decades later, Clintons
desire to work through illness and
penchant for keeping her health secret
has helped cause the most damaging
48-hour period in her presidential campaign and given fresh ammunition to
GOP rival Donald Trump. The incident
has also stoked long-simmering con-

The deduction would apply only to

individuals earning $250,000 or less,
or $500,000 or less if filing jointly.
But because Trumps proposal is a tax
deduction rather than credit, its greatest benefits would go to affluent
households. More than 40 percent of
U. S. taxpayers dont make enough
money to owe taxes to the federal government, meaning they would not benefit from a deduction. Lower-income
earners would receive child-care spending rebates through expanding the
existing Earned Income Tax Credit, the
campaign said.
Trump also proposed incentives for
employers to provide child-care
options at work. But some of his proposals to prod businesses and communities into providing child care and
other services are anathema to conservative orthodoxy.
At one point, Trump was interrupted
briefly by a crying baby but, unlike
at a rally in August, he did not suggest
he wanted the child ejected.
The timing, location and subject
matter are no coincidence. Democratic
presidential candidates have won
Pennsylvania since 1992, but Trump
hopes to flip the battleground to win
the White House in November. And
Trump has been trying to soften his
image among college-educated women
who have been reluctant to support a
candidate who has made many derogatory remarks toward women.
Ivanka Trump introduced Trump in
Pennsylvania and, earlier in the day in
Iowa, the candidate credited his daughter for his action on the issue. She is
servative conspiracy theories about
her health and questions about her commitment to openness.
Video of her staggering and stumbling at a 9/11 ceremony on Sunday
and her controversial comments about
Trumps supporters at a Friday fundraiser both occurred while she suffered from
lingering pneumonia.
At least part of the blame goes to a
simple cause: Clintons stubborn
unwillingness to follow the advice of
doctors, family and friends.
This is just who she is. She is a
workhorse. No matter who tells her,
her husband can tell her. It doesnt matter. Chelsea can tell her, said Virginia
Gov. Terry McAuliffe, a Democrat who
served as chairman of her 2008 presidential campaign. Youre not going to
change her at this point in her life.
After her Friday pneumonia diagnosis, Clinton was determined to power
through, she told CNN late Monday.
The public and most in her campaign
were kept in the dark. Her running
mate, Virginia Sen. Tim Kaine, and her
campaign manager, Robby Mook,
declined to say when they first learned
about her condition.
The decision to keep going was one

the one who has been pushing for it so

hard: Daddy, Daddy we have to do
this. Shes very smart, and shes
right, the candidate said.
The timing raised some eyebrows
among skeptics.
Carmel Martin at the liberal Center
for American Progress said the new
savings accounts would create a potential tax shelter for wealthy people and
that Trumps proposals remain tilted to
the rich because the low-income childcare rebates top out at $1,200.
It would definitely work for Ivanka,
but not for most American families,
Martin said.
Trump laid out plans to create
Dependent Care Savings Accounts
that would allow families to set aside
money to look after children or elderly
parents. The accounts would allow taxdeductible contributions and tax-free
appreciation and could be used to pay
for child care, after-school programs
and school tuition. To help lowerincome parents, the government would
match half of the first $1,000 deposited per year.
For elderly dependents, the accounts
could be used to help pay for services
including in-home nursing and longterm care.
Currently, families can set aside up
to $5000 annually for child care
expenses or elder care but not for
school tuition and cannot carry over
the amount in the account.
Trump did not lay out how much the
proposals would cost, but insisted the
extra spending would be offset by economic growth and other cuts.
that Clinton, who suffers seasonal
allergies that can become a vicious
cough, came to regret. The Democrat is
now taking a few days off the campaign
trail, forced to the sidelines at a critical
point in the fall election.
Campaign spokesman Nick Merrill
said the Democratic nominee spent
Tuesday reading briefing material, calling aides and watching President
Barack Obama campaign on her behalf
in Philadelphia. She will resume campaign travel on Thursday, he said.
Facing criticism about her lack of
disclosure, shes agreed to release more
health information soon.
I probably would have been better
off if Id just pulled down my schedule
on Friday, Clinton said on CNN,
adding: I just didnt think it was going
to be that big a deal.
Her supporters now are trying to turn
the episode into a badge of honor
and a credential for the White House.
This is a woman who works 20
hours a day and comes into contact
with tens of thousands of people and
you pick up germs and viruses and
things like that and you get exhausted, said Democratic Gov. Dannel
Malloy of Connecticut.
