fans, its preview time
A
t the beginning of the month, football players from
around the Peninsula descended on their respective high
school campuses to officially get ready for the 2017
campaign.
Three weeks later, most of those players and teams will strap it
up for real for season openers Friday.
This week begins the San Mateo Daily
Journals 17th annual football preview,
where we will spend each day focused on
one of three divisions in the Peninsula
Athletic League, kicking off with the Bay
Division today, followed by the Ocean and
Lake divisions Wednesday and Thursday,
respectively. It finishes up with Serra and

While there are interesting non-league
matches to keep an eye on, the race for
division championships should be as
competitive as its ever been in the PAL.
There doesnt appear to be one clear-cut favorite in either the Bay,

School district enters early tax talks

Belmont-Redwood Shores officials discuss potential parcel tax groundwork
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Belmont-Redwood Shores Elementary
School District officials are examining the
formative steps potentially building toward
pursuing a tax measure financing school
operations.
The district Board of Trustees during a
meeting Thursday, Aug. 17, received a pres-
entation from a couple of local consulting
firms offering services to districts and
cities often interested in pursuing tax meas-
ures.
District Superintendent Michael Milliken
said the discussion led by representatives
from Godbe Research and TBWB Strategies
could give way to further examination of a
future parcel tax.
The board is in the early stages of
exploring how we might grow our local rev-
enue given the broader state fiscal context
for public school funding, he said.
Talks with the two firms specializing
in gauging and building community sup-
port for revenue measures came in the
wake of officials discussing this summer
ways to improve the districts financial
footing, said Milliken.
He said fortifying the school systems
economic outlook is becoming increasing-
ly necessary as the districts financial obli-
gations are heightened through increased
student and personnel costs.
Enrollment continues to grow alongside
state mandated retirement contributions for
staff, said Milliken, which are outpacing
revenue contributions offered by the state
government.
We are seeing our expenditures growing
at a rate which in some ways is mismatched
with state funding, he said.
The districts funding gap is filled mostly
with local revenue streams generated by its
existing parcel tax, which voters approved
for 10 years in 2015, as well as donations
to the community foundation.
He added officials will consider cost con-
trols in the coming years in an effort to
assure the entire budget imbalance is not
addressed through local contributions.
The district has $10 million in recently-
approved bond money to spend for financ-
ing new school facility construction, which
officials have allocated over the past decade
to help build more classrooms accommodat-

ing enrollment growth, said Milliken.
While campus issues tied to growth have
been largely addressed for the time being,
Milliken said expenses from enrollment
nearly doubling in the past decade continue
to create issues for the district.
For the intermediate term we are keeping
up with the facilities side of things, but as
weve grown from 2,400 students in 2005
to somewhere around 4,325 this year, and
that enrollment growth is just putting pres-
sure on our district from a facilities stand-
point as well as a financial standpoint,
said Milliken.
In an effort to keep enrollment in check,
district officials have also discussed with
their colleagues at Belmont City Hall the
possibility of housing students at a poten-
tially rejuvenated Barrett Community
Center built near downtown.
Milliken though said momentum in those
talks has slowed recently, as the district for
the first time in years saw a reduced enroll-
ment growth rate, causing officials to mon-
itor more closely trends in the coming
years.
I think the board has an interest in con-
tinuing the conversation with the city, but
at this time, its too soon to tell what may
come of it, he said.
Milliken said he anticipated a similarly
measured approach would be taken as offi-
cials consider the potential parcel tax meas-
ure too.
No direction was given at the meeting to
further explore the tax feasibility, and
Milliken said officials will continue exam-
ining the possibility over the coming year.
The district is mandated to produce a budg-
et projecting over the coming three years,
so Milliken said the financial concerns
span to the end of that timeline. But as the
new school year kicks off, Milliken said he
expects officials to dive deeper into the dis-
cussions in the coming months.
At this point we are still in the early
stages, he said.

Why AI visionary Ng teaches
humans to teach computers
By Ryan Nakashima
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
PALO ALTO Andrew Ng has led teams
that have gone on to create self-learning
computer programs used by hundreds of mil-
lions of people, including email spam filters
and touch-screen keyboards that make typ-
ing easier by predicting what you might want
to say next.
As a way to get machines to learn without
supervision, he has trained them to recog-
nize cats in YouTube videos without being
told what cats were. And he revolutionized
this field, known as artificial intelligence,
by adopting graphics chips meant for video
games.
To push the boundaries of artificial intelli-
gence further, one of the worlds most
renowned researchers in the field says many
more humans need to get involved. So his
focus now is on teaching the next generation
of AI specialists to teach the machines.
Nearly 2 million people around the globe
have taken Ngs online course on machine
learning. In his videos, the lanky, 6-foot-1
Briton of Hong Kong and Singaporean
upbringing speaks with a difficult-to-place
accent. He often tries to get students com-
fortable with mind-boggling concepts by
acknowledging up front, in essence, that
hey, this stuff is tough.
Ng sees AI as a way to free humanity from
repetitive mental drudgery. He has said he
sees AI changing virtually every industry,
and any task that takes less than a second of
thought will eventually be done by
machines. He once said famously that the
only job that might not be changed is his
hairdressers to which a friend of his
responded that in fact, she could get a robot
to do his hair.
At the end of a 90-minute interview in his

partially behind his ambition.

top into view. Hes calculated in a Chrome
browser window how many days we have

days.
An upstart programmer by age 6, Ng
learned coding early from his father, a med-
ical doctor who tried to program a computer
to diagnose patients using data. At his urg-
ing, Ng says, he fiddled with these concepts
on his home computer. At age 16, he wrote a
program to calculate trigonometric functions
like sine and cosine using a neural network
the core computing engine of artificial
intelligence modeled on the human brain.
REUTERS FILE PHOTO
It seemed really amazing that you could
write a few lines of code and have it learn to
do interesting things, he said.
After graduating high school from
Singapores Raffles Institution, Ng made the
rounds of Carnegie Mellon, MIT and
Berkeley before taking up residence as a pro-
There, he taught robotic helicopters to do
aerial acrobatics after being trained by an
expert pilot. The work was inspiring and
exciting, recalls Pieter Abbeel, then one of
Ngs doctoral students and now a computer
scientist at Berkeley.
Abbeel says he once crashed a $10,000
helicopter drone, but Ng brushed it off.
Andrew was always like, If these things
are too simple, everybody else could do
them.

Plane registered to Menlo Park
man crashes in Oregon, one dead
A home-built plane registered to a Menlo
Park man crashed Saturday afternoon in an
Oregon canyon, federal aviation and central
Oregon emergency management officials
said.
The fixed-wing, single-engine Wheeler
Express crashed at about 2 p.m. in Willow
Creek Canyon in Madras, Oregon, where peo-
ple were gathering to watch todays solar
eclipse.
The amateur-built plane is registered to
Mark Rich, according to Federal Aviation
Administration records.
No one from the Jefferson County medical
examiners office was immediately available
to say who died in the crash. County emer-
gency officials said only one person was on
board.
FAA spokesman Keith Holloway said
Richs plane went down about 1.5 miles
south of Madras Municipal Airport. The plane
crashed on approach, Holloway said.
Flames engulfed the plane and it was com-
pletely destroyed, according to emergency
officials. The flames started a small fire that
was quickly extinguished.
The FAA and National Transportation
Safety Board will be investigating the crash.

Poll: Hispanics lack confidence in nursing homes
By Daniel Trielli
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON Hispanics in the United
States have a longer life expectancy, but a
poll finds few older Latinos are confident
that nursing homes and assisted living
facilities can meet their needs.
The Associated Press-NORC Center for
Public Affairs Research survey also showed
that close to one-half of older Hispanics
have faced language or cultural barriers
interacting with health care providers.
Fewer than 2 in 10 Hispanics age 40 and
older say they are very or extremely confi-
dent that nursing homes and assisted living
facilities can accommodate their cultural
needs, according to the poll.
Experts cite two factors that might be
contributing to the lack of confidence:
social norms among Hispanic families that
discourage outside care of older relatives,
and a lack of high-quality providers.
Quality is not just meeting government
requirements. Its also having high engage-
ment and a sense of community, said
Jacqueline Angel, a sociology professor at
the University of Texas at Austin, who has
researched Hispanics and aging.
Jane Delgado, president of the National
Alliance for Hispanic Health, agreed. Most
Democrats push new bill to
change recall rules, save senator
SACRAMENTO California Democrats
are again pushing to change recall election
rules in an effort to protect one of their own
lawmakers after a court put an earlier
attempt to slow the recall process on hold.
The legislation introduced Monday would
help Sen. Josh Newman of Fullerton, who is
facing a recall attempt backed by

nursing homes have not been attuned to the
particular needs of Hispanics, she said.
Culture is not something that they are
interested in.
The poll found that about half of
Hispanics have had difficulty communicat-
ing with a health care provider because of a
cultural (47 percent) or language barrier (45
percent).
Angel said that may result in lower use of
long-term care facilities.
Hispanics accounted for 5.5 percent of all
nursing home residents in the U.S. in the
first quarter of 2016, according to govern-
ment data. Hispanics represented about 8
percent of the population 65 or older.
Research shows current nursing home
admission rates for Hispanics are far below
levels for other ethnic groups, Angel said.
That happens even when taking into
account that Hispanics tend to live longer.
Government statistics show that Hispanics
have a life expectancy of 82 years, longer

Election officials in three counties say
theyve verified enough signatures for the
recall to proceed. State law gives Secretary
of State Alex Padilla 10 days to certify
them.
The bill would allow people to remove
their name from a recall petition and require
the state to estimate the costs of holding a

than non-Hispanic white Americans (78.7
years) and non-Hispanic black Americans
(75.1 years). Hispanic women have a life
expectancy of 84.3 years.
The good news is that we live longer. But
that also means that we are going to need
more care as time goes by and as young peo-
ple move away from home, Delgado said.
To break down cultural barriers, experts
say that nursing homes and assisted living
facilities must invest in a more personal
experience for residents.
In places such as Palm Beach County,
Florida, where many people have Hispanic
origins, that is practically a requirement.
At the MorseLife group, a senior health
care and housing provider in West Palm
Beach, half the staff is bilingual. We have
therapists who can communicate directly
with the patient, not only understanding
the language, but also the cultural aspects of
what they are saying, said Dr. Ivan
Merkelj, one of the directors.

The AP-NORC poll showed that Hispanics
are more likely than older adults as a whole
to say that the typical home health aide
should provide services such as shopping
for groceries (75 percent to 62 percent),
transportation to a doctors appointment
(84 percent to 71 percent), and making sure
bills are paid (52 percent to 33 percent).
Angel said this may reflect a desire to repli-
cate the home environment.
Delgado suggested that communities
adopt day care programs such as PACE, or
Programs of All-Inclusive Care for the
Elderly. Adopted by 122 organizations, the
model establishes guidelines for senior day
care programs, with a focus on listening to
specific needs and demands from seniors.
Merkelj, originally from Peru, is the med-

have independence, but also eases them

Mayes has defended his vote, arguing it

Trump returnsto Arizona and
a chaotic political landscape
By Josh Hoffner
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
PHOENIX Donald Trump was just a few
weeks into his candidacy in 2015 when he
came to Phoenix for a speech that ended up
being a bigger moment in his campaign
than most people realized at the time.
Trump savaged his critics and the media,
vowed to fine Mexico $100,000 for each
immigrant entering the country illegally,
talked tough on trade, promised to return
America to its winning ways and borrowed a
line from Richard Nixon in declaring, The
silent majority is back.
The packed crowd ate it up the raucous
enthusiasm an early sign of the overwhelm-
ing support among Trumps base that would
help carry him to the presidency.
As Trump returns to Arizona on Tuesday in
need of another big moment, he will find a
place where his agenda and unconventional
leadership style have consumed the politi-
cal landscape and elevated the states status
in the national fight for control of power in
Washington in 2018.

Arizona senator, Jeff Flake, has become the
poster child for Republicans who buck the
presidents agenda and feel his wrath on
Twitter. The president is almost certain to
back a GOP challenger to Flake in 2018,
complicating Republican efforts to main-
tain control of the Senate.
Trump has also revived the immigration
debate and infuriated Latinos here with his
talk of pardoning former Sheriff Joe Arpaio
over his recent conviction for breaking the
law with his signature immigration patrols.
The controversy over Civil War monuments
has even spilled into Arizona, where the
governor has faced repeated calls to take
down a handful of Confederate memorials in
the state.
And an overlooked item in Trumps agen-
da, school choice, has made education a hot
campaign issue in Arizona. With the strong
support of Education Secretary Besty
DeVos, Arizona passed the nations most
ambitious expansion of vouchers this year,
and public school advocates recently sub-
mitted more than 100,000 signatures in a
petition drive to get the law wiped out on
the 2018 ballot.
Former attorneys general call
for strong response to hate
By Geoff Mulvihill
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
More than 60 former attorneys general
from U.S states and territories released a let-
ter Monday seeking to provide clarity on
how to respond to acts of hate.
The bipartisan group signed the open let-

General Bill Baxley for how he took on
racism decades ago. It was written after the
white nationalist rally in Charlottesville,
Virginia, which ended with a car plowing
into a group of counter-protesters, killing a
32-year-old woman and seriously wounding
others.
In 1976, Baxley, a Democrat who would
later become the states lieutenant gover-
nor, was pursuing the case against perpetra-
tors of a 1963 Birmingham church bomb-

Appeals court revives
suit over U.S. military base in Japan
SAN FRANCISCO A federal appeals court Monday
revived a lawsuit that seeks to block construction of a U.S.
military base in Okinawa, Japan over concerns about its
impact on the Okinawa dugong, an endangered marine mam-
mal that resembles a manatee.
The Center for Biological Diversity has authority to chal-
lenge the adequacy of the governments evaluation of the
effect on the Okinawa dugong, the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of
Appeals said. A three-judge panel of the court also said the
environmental groups request for an injunction blocking
the project did not raise political questions that were
beyond judicial review.
The ruling overturned a 2015 decision by U.S. District
Judge Edward Chen in San Francisco that dismissed the suit.
The 9th Circuit sent the case back to Chen for further pro-
ceedings.
The Department of Justice said in a statement it was
reviewing the ruling.
Peter Galvin, director of programs for the Center for
Biological Diversity, said the decision was a lifeline for
the Okinawa dugong.
The base plan as its currently conceived is incompatible
with the continued existence of the Okinawa dugong, he
said.

Institutional obstacles
and a widening gap
Editor,
The Aug. 18 article about the apartment
building in San Mateo where renters
received $1,000 increases while living
with pests and mold should nally put an
end to the California Apartment
Associations and San Mateo County
Association of Realtors lie that landlords
only take care of their property when there
is no rent stabilization. Only good land-
lords take care of their property come
rain or shine.
The owner of this building, a former
Foster City mayor and well-known attor-
ney, stated he has owned the property for
40 years. If this is true, he has beneted
from a 40-year-old property tax basis and
Proposition 13 tax relief for all of these
years, yet he is not passing that huge sav-
ings on to his tenants, and doesnt main-
tain his building with the prots. Indeed,
many other landlords have proted hand-
somely from that tax relief, and their chil-
dren and grandchildren as well, when prop-
erty is handed down in the family.
Renters have few paths open to them to
create and save wealth. They are subject to
wild increases and poor living conditions
because of the economic miracle that has
turned into a nightmare for many. They
dont have subsidies like mortgage interest
deductions or Proposition 13 tax relief.
They dont gain equity so they can send
their kids to college or raise their living
conditions. We need to take a long hard
look at these institutional obstacles that
are widening the gap between propertied
and non-propertied people.

Bayfront developments
Editor,
Decades ago, in the far distant 1950s and
60s, renowned architects and city planners
preached that Bayfront and beachfront
properties should be preserved for parks,
walkways, beaches and low-rise family
housing. Taller buildings like hotels, ofce
buildings and similar structures should be
located on higher ground. The views from
high rise buildings could be preserved and
even enhanced for the occupants of those
tall structures. At the same time lower resi-
dences would not block the views or access
from those on higher ground.
As Bayside developments continue to be
built, as announced in the Aug. 10 edition
of the Daily Journal (New 12-story hotel
proposed), a wall of view-blocking towers
will spoil the glamorous sights from the
neighborhoods behind. Many viewpoints
will be lost or at least minimized with a
row of towers along the waterfront
obstructing the vistas for the rest of us.
If only we had listened to some of those
visionaries, we would all now be enjoying
the advantages.

Response to California is shrinking
Editor,
Sabrina Brennans perspective
(California is shrinking in the Aug. 14
edition of the Daily Journal) did a great
job of highlighting Californias vulnera-
bility to climate change and the cost of
adapting to sea level rise.
However, Im surprised she neglected to
mention the most obvious way to pay for
these costs: a carbon fee. Since carbon
dioxide and equivalent emissions are clear-
ly responsible for climate change and its
effects, polluters should be forced to pay
for the amount that they emit. California
already does this through the auction por-
tion of the cap-and-trade program, but the
bulk of the proceeds are currently spent on
carbon emissions reduction initiatives.
In the future, we should denitely see
more funding allocated for adaptation to
sea level rise. I think it would be even bet-
ter if the state replaced the cap-and-trade
program with a more straightforward car-
bon fee, where the price could be increased
over time.

Repeal the gas tax
I
will never forget my rst summer job,
where I served as a busboy at a restau-
rant in San Mateo County. While some
might suggest that the tasks and duties of a
busboy require very little skill or aptitude, I
will tell you that I truly put my heart into the
work. I took pride in arduously mopping
oors, cheerfully greeting customers and
striving to consistently maintain a smile
even when taking out the overowing
garbage. My rst service job not only
taught me the value of hard work, but also
the true value of reward for my efforts. I
learned the true value of a dollar. Allow me to
elaborate.
In my rst week
on the job, I was
well aware that
my minimum
wage earnings
would not amount
to much, but I did
not anticipate
that a quarter of
my earnings
would be withheld
from my pocket
for federal and
state taxes. What Jonathan Madison
a bummer.
For someone earning a minimum wage
salary, being taxed at such a rate often cre-
ates an extraordinary burden. It can make the
difference between having the economic
means to afford a well-balanced meal over a
cheap alternative. Or, having the economic
means to pay rent with ease rather than liv-
ing paycheck to paycheck.
I subsequently researched how the govern-
ment allocated and dispersed my tax dollars.
I quickly realized the importance of my par-
ticipation as an engaged citizen to hold the
government accountable. Too often, we are
quick to label those who call for fewer taxes
and less government expenditures as citizens
who are oblivious to the needs of the low-
and middle-class that are living paycheck to
paycheck. The fact of the matter is that the
tax burden in this state is real. In an age
when our federal and state governments are
spending more than ever before, many of us
do not see tangible results of our taxes bene-
ting our day-to-day lives. As such, we
should rightfully demand prudence by our
elected ofcials with regard to taxing our
hard-earned income.
I am mindful of the importance of holding
government accountable when I see the state
Legislature approve billions of dollars in
higher gasoline taxes. On April 28, Gov.
Jerry Brown signed into law a 12-cent-per-
gallon gas tax increase scheduled to begin in
November. California is among the highest
taxed states in the nation. It follows suit that
as of November, California will be among the
highest gasoline taxed states in the nation.
Proponents of the gas tax hike suggest
that funds from the tax will be used to fund a
$52 billion statewide project to repair roads,
bridges and transportation infrastructure.
Opponents of the legislation suggest that
this is another case of government increas-
ing taxes while providing fewer services.
Some suggest that the tax increases will
harm local businesses and individuals who
use automobiles as their primary means of
transportation. It is no secret that high sales
taxes can unduly burden an economy recov-
ering from an economic downturn. Perhaps
we should hold our politicians to the same
standard by which each of us meet our own
personal nancial challenges: Doing our
best to live within our means and spending
no more than we actually have.

would impact public transit and road mainte-

residents and citizens of our nation have an
obligation to hold our government account-

earned paychecks. We should not turn a blind
eye to a gas tax hike without question or

Indexes inch higher after two down weeks

By Stan Choe
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK U. S. stocks
inched higher Monday, as the
Standard & Poors 500 index
steadied following back-to-back
losses the last two weeks.
This week may be a calmer one
for the stock market, after an
uncharacteristically bumpy
stretch shook what had been an
incredibly smooth ride higher for
stocks this year. Few market-mov-
ing events are on the calendar this
week, and the highlight will like-
ly arrive when central bankers
from around the world gather in
Wyoming as the weekend
approaches.
The S&P 500 rose 2.82 points,
or 0.1 percent, to 2,428.37 after it
and other indexes flipped between
small gains and losses throughout
the day. The Dow Jones industrial
average gained 29.24, or 0.1 per-
cent, to 21, 703. 75, and the
Nasdaq composite slipped 3.40
points, or 0. 1 percent, to
6,213.13.
The modest moves were a return
to form for the market. Its had just
four days this year where the S&P
500 has dropped by more than 1
percent, which is well below the
typical number in recent decades.
But half those instances occurred
in the last two weeks, stoked by
worries about discord in
Washington and the potential for
war abroad.
One of the reasons the market
has held in and performed well

have been a much more difficult
period of time for the market.

reporting their results for the

Sempra Energy bids $9.45B for Oncor, topping Buffett offer

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN DIEGO Sempra Energy
is buying Texas power transmitter
Oncor for $9.45 billion in cash,
wresting it away from Warren
Buffetts Berkshire Hathaway.
Sempra said Monday that it
will also pick up $9. 35 billion
of the companys debt. To gain
possession of Oncor, Sempra
will acquire the reorganized
Energy Future Holdings Corp.
Energy Future entered bankrupt-
cy in 2014, saddled with more
than $40 billion in debt due to
cratering energy prices.
Berkshire Hathaway said last
month that it would buy Oncor for
$9 billion, and last week it stuck
to that bid. Hedge fund Elliott
Management, which owns a sig-
nificant portion of Oncors debt,
opposed Berkshires takeover bid,
saying it wasnt enough. But
Berkshire Hathaway stood firm on
its offer, saying last week that it
would not be increasing the bid.
Elliott spokesman Michael
OLooney said the hedge fund sup-
ports Sempras bid because it will
provide more to all of Oncor and
Energy Futures creditors.
Greg Abel, who leads Berkshire
Hathaway Energy, said hes disap-
pointed the Oncor deal was termi-
nated by Energy Future. But
Berkshire is entitled to receive a

Bay QBs have a lot of experience

By Nathan Mollat Bay Division preview
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

The Peninsula Athletic Leagues Bay

Division has proven over the last decade or so
that it is one of the best football divisions in
the Central Coast Section. Over the last decade,
the Bay Division has brought home 10 CCS
titles and four more teams appeared in the cham-
pionship game.
And with every team in the division bringing
experience back at quarterback, 2017 could be
one of the best races in years.
We said it last year, every team in our league
next year, even though we think well be a little
better, everyone is going to be better, said
Burlingame coach John Philipopoulos, whose
team returns Carlo Lopiccolo for his second
year under center. Theres a lot of starters com-
ing back on all those teams.
Philipopoulos, who is a run-first coach, is
not naive enough to think he can win a Bay
Division championship without throwing the
ball. While you shouldnt expect the Panthers
to suddenly start throwing the ball 30 times a
game, you can expect with a second-year quar-
terback that the passing game will be a little bit
better, as will the offense as a whole.
When a kid comes in as a junior [for his first
season as a starting varsity quarterback],
theyre just running some key reads, plays.
Its a process for these kids. You limit motions
and plays, Philipopoulos said. Now they
come back for their senior year, now youre
telling them the play, instead of explaining a
play. Its so different.
Aragons Gabe Campos and Terra Novas Nate
Gordon also return for their second year guiding
their respective teams, along with a host of
receivers to catch passes. Much like
Burlingame, dont expect Aragon to start sling-
ing the ball all over the field, but Campos has a
lot of athletic talent with which to work.
Aragon brings back three of their top four
receivers from last season and, with Campos
gun-slinger attitude, expect to see some big
plays from the Dons.
You have to have explosive plays for touch-
downs to score a lot of points [in the Bay
Division], said Aragon coach Steve Sell. But
at the same time, when you have guys like Brent
[Marin], Donaven [Robinson] and Davion
[Cox] at wide receiver, and Gabe, who is
extremely accurate. Were going to throw it. We
have to throw it.
Gordon, who threw for just shy of 2,000 yards
last season, could have a chance to come close
to doubling that this season after a year in coach DAILY JOURNAL SPORTS FILE

CLEVELAND Kneeling and bowing
their heads, the Cleveland Browns bonded
over something bigger than football.
More than a dozen players huddled togeth-
er on the teams bench Monday night to
protest during the national anthem.
The group, which included veterans, rook-
ies, starters and backups, gathered in front of
some water coolers and behind their team-
mates who stood on the sideline shortly
before the Browns hosted the New York
Giants.
Linebackers Jamie Collins and Christian

receivers Kenny Britt and Ricardo Louis and
defensive back Calvin Pryor dropped to one
knee in a circle. Rookie quarterback DeShone

teammates by putting their hands on their

group, also placed a hand over his heart.

out of six offensive linemen coming back, there
is a hint of excitement among the Dons this sea-
son.
We have high expectations with this group,
said Aragon coach Steve Sell. I think they are
capable of being one of the best teams weve
had in the last decade. Its just a matter of them
seizing the opportunity.
Quarterback Gabe Campos returns for his sec-
ond season under center and will have a
plethora of weapons to whom to get the ball.
The backfield will feature Paul Lautaimi,
Cameron Grant and Francisco Sanchez-Bor-
rero.
(Lautaimi) ran for over 200 yards against
Burlingame, showed flashes of being a domi-
nant back last year. Hes a great one, Sell said.
Tasked with opening holes on the offensive
line is one of the Dons best units. Ian
Tapueluelu, Liam Laughlin, Michael Muller and
Marvin West all return and will be joined by
Mario Cruz, who got injured and lost his start-
last year. Add to the mix a depth of safeties, and
Panthers head coach John Philipopoulos is brim-
ming with confidence the number of INTs will
increase this season.
Were pretty set, Philipopoulos aid.Were really have a cumulative 450-plus yards returning in the
excited about our secondary.
Just as much cause for excitement is returning mid-
dle linebacker John Dryden. While Burlingame
graduated all three of its first-team All-Bay Division
defenders from last season, it was actually Dryden,
as a junior, who led the Panthers with 78 total tack-
les, including 40 solo takedowns.
The importance of Burlingames D is simple. The
tale of the tape from 2016 shows when the defense
produces, the Panthers win. In three Bay Division
victories last year, Burlingame surrendered 30 cu-
mulative points.In the two league games they lost,
opponents combined to score 68.
Much of that discrepancy has to do with time of
possession. And, as always, Burlingames offense is
equipped to eat up big chunks of time,thanks to ex-
traordinary depth in the backfield.
Players to watch
both sides of the ball, Brown is at his most
dangerous as a cornerback in man coverage.
Hes a lockdown corner, Burlingame head
coach John Philipopoulos said.Hes physical,
hes fast and hes a very good football player.
John Dryden (Sr., MLB/G): At 5-11, 180
pounds, Dryden plays much bigger than his
is as the centerpiece of Burlingames defense.
Last season as a junior, he proved it, leading
the team with 78 tackles, including 40 solo
takedowns. Hes bigger, hes faster, hes
stronger, Philipopoulos said. Hes ready to
go. So were really excited about [Dryden] as
well.
ing spot last year as a sophomore, but will be
back in the mix this season.
When the Dons need to go to the air, they have a
trio of targets from whom to choose. Cox and
Robinson are their two big home run hitters, while
Marin serves as a possession-type receiver who can
break the big one any time he touches the ball.
Those three will also anchor the defensive sec-
ondary and should give the Dons the personnel
needed to match up with a bevy of opposing wide
receivers.
The Dons defensive front seven will also remain
mostly intact, returning six of seven starters while
adding Capuchino transfer Moses Olive, whose
family moved into Aragons enrollment area.
All in all, Sell believes as long as his team takes care
of the ball, it has the horses to make a run for a PAL
Bay Division title and beyond.
Were cautiously optimistic. We left two wins on
the table last year. We had games that were way
closer than they should have been, Sell said.Our
focus this year is no unforced errors.
Last season, fullback Alec Meredith helped front
the multipronged attack.As a junior in 2016,Mered-
ith rambled for 853 rushing yards, ranking a close
second among the team leaders.And the Panthers
trio of Brown, Curtis Lauti and Jake Scigliano.
And while quarterback Carlo Lopiccolo isnt con-
sidered a running threat, he brings a cannon arm
with a lot of experience,having started all 11 games
last season, including Burlingames 41-0 loss to Val-
ley Christian in the CCS Division III playoff opener.
While Lopiccolo was hampered by a low pass per-
centage he completed just 48.7 percent of his
throws for 1,138 yards in 2016 he brings a nec-
essary breadth of experience to helming the
Panthers patented wing-T offense.
Thankfully he was our starter last year and has that
foundation, Philipopoulos said. So hes able to
jump back in and pick up where he left off last year.
So were feeling pretty good about that.

Aragon, Half Moon Bay and Terra Nova appear
loaded at the skills positions. Menlo-Atherton
will be looking to reload after winning CCS and
Nor Cal titles and advancing to a state champi-

You could make a case for anybody in the Bay
winning it, said M-Acoach Adhir Ravipati,
whose team is the defending division champion.
The Ocean Division continues to be one of the
best B leagues in the section as five of the six
teams last season finished with .500 or better
records and three teams qualified for the CCS
playoffs. The only change to the division this
season is the subtraction of Half Moon Bay,
which moved up to the Bay, and the return of
Hillsdale, after a one-year hiatus in the PALs top
division. The Ocean Division usually features
high-flying offenses that put up points like a
basketball team. The winner of the division,
however, will be the team that can somehow
slow down or stop the opposition.
The Lake Division, over the last several years,
has become the least predictable, with seven
teams having won a division title over the last
nine years including a three-way tie in 2011.
San Mateo, which won the division title last sea-
son, decided to stay in the Lake after seeing most
of its key players graduate.

that proved the old adage: its not how you start,
but how you finish.
With the advent of the state bowl champi-
onship series, its no longer a must that a team
goes 10-0 during the regular season to make it to
the top. Win the right games at the right time and
a spot in a state bowl game is within reach.
Last year, Serra was buried in three of its non-
league games, only to rebound and finish in a
three-way tie for the West Catholic Athletic
League crown. The Padres went on to capture the
CCS Open Division championship, before
adding a Nor Cal crown and their first-ever
appearance in a state football championship
game.
Serra, along with the top dogs in the WCAL,
will have no breaks over their 10-week schedules
as every team in the league tries to load up their
early schedule with quality teams to better prepare
them for the rigors of WCAL play. Its almost
pointless trying to handicap the league before a
game has even been played. Expect to see the
same suspects at the top of the division, but
things can change dramatically from Aug. 25
until the first league games the first week of
October.

Half Moon Bay
Cougars
Head coach: Keith
Holden, 7th year
2016 record: 4-1 PAL
Ocean, 11-2 overall
Key returners: Gavin
Tomberlin (Sr., QB/P); Chase Hoffmann (Sr., RB/SS);
Hayden Von Almen (Sr.,WR/FS); Jake Quosig (Sr.,
RB/S); Arron Baird (Sr., OLB/OT); Sean Fitzgerald
(Sr., CB/WR); Dom Padua (Sr. slot/CB); Kellan Royce
(Jr., G/LB); Joe Weinberger (Sr., DE); Juan Vazquez
(Sr., DT); Ricky Camacho (Sr., LT)
Key newcomers: Dylan Williams (Sr., K/WR); Zach
Henry (Sr., C/LB); Tristan Hoffmann (Fr., slot/DB)
2017 opener: Fri. at Saratoga, 7 p.m.
Outlook: Poor, little Half Moon Bay the small-
est public school in the Peninsula Athletic League
has managed just a 22-4 combined record
over the past two seasons, while capturing back-
to-back Central Coast Section Division IV
championships.
Its a wonder why the rest of the PAL doesnt feel
sorry for them.
This year, the PAL voted to promote HMB from
the B-league Ocean Division to the A-league Division I recruits in the Bears defensive front
Bay Division. This is quite a leap, considering
Cougars head coach Keith Holden said his team,
through its previous four seasons in the Ocean
Division, was still playing above its pay grade.
Were a (C-league) Lake Division team that over-
achieves, Holden said.But its kind of ridiculous
if you look at the school size,the roster size and just
go down the list.
Still, the Cougars tout what is probably the most
intriguing returning skill player in all of the PAL in
senior Chase Hoffmann.The most potent of HMBs
many weapons out of the triple-option offense,
Hoffmann produced 2,339 total yards in 2016, in-
cluding a remarkable 2,070 yards rushing.
And, despite these eye-popping numbers, Hoff-
mann may be a more dominant player on the
defensive side of the ball as a strong safety. Last
season he ranked second on the team with 42
tackles. And in last Fridays four-way scrimmage
against Mountain View, Homestead and Bel-
larmine, he picked up right where he left off.
Joining Hoffmann in the secondary will be his
brother, freshman Tristan Hoffmann, a significant
addition as it marks the first freshman to make
the opening-day varsity roster for a HMB team in
over a generation, according to Holden.
Weve brought freshmen up for playoffs, or for
practice but Ive been at Half Moon Bay for [16
years], I was born and raised in Half Moon Bay,
and Ive never even heard of a freshman playing
varsity at Half Moon Bay, Holden said.
Left-handed quarterback Gavin Tomberlin returns
on offense to bring plenty of miles to the drivers
seat of the triple-read option.The way HMB runs
it, at times it looks more like a rugby approach,
with wide receiver Hayden Von Almen, slot Dom
Padua and running back Jake Quosig all three
are seniors providing plenty of tactical options.
SPORTS
Players to watch
Half Moon Bay
Chase Hoffmann (Sr., RB/SS): Hoffmann did-
nt receive PAL Ocean Division Offensive Player
of the Year honors last season, but he very well
could have. Prior to Half Moon Bays promo-
tion to the Bay Division this year, he gained
2,339 total yards as a junior including 2,070
yards rushing, leading the Cougars to their
second straight CCS Division IV championship.
This while hardly ever leaving the field, he also
serves as HMBs best defender from the strong
safety position.
Hayden Von Almen (Sr., WR/FS): Von Almen
is another outstanding defender, though it
stands to reason as his father Brian serves as
the Cougars defensive coordinator. It was on
offense where he earned first-team All-Ocean
Division honors as a wide receiver though,
pacing HMB with 29 receptions, 617 yards and
six touchdown receptions.
Menlo-Atherton
Noa Ngalu (Sr., LG/DT): Ngalu is one of five
seven, and on paper is the most impactful. A
returning all-league defensive tackle, he
ranked third on the team in total tackles last
season with 104 throughout his sophomore
this year after totaling 13 1/2 tackles for a loss
year.
BAY
Continued from page 11
after combining for 1,408 yards receiving last
season.
Menlo-Atherton has a unique situation with
Myles Conrad, who, after missing the first sev-
eral games because of injury, moved back into
the starting role and helped lead the Bears to a
share of the Bay Division title in 2015.
Conrad was supplanted by Aajon Johnson
last season, but he did appear in nine games and
threw for 165 yards as the Bears won a CCS and
Nor Cal title and appeared in a state champi-
onship game. He gives M-As coach Adhir
Ravipati a nice security blanket.
It really helps and it gives us a guy to lean on
offensively, especially in the backfield, said
Ravipati, referring to Johnson and running
back Jordan Mims. It helps that Myles has a
whole season under his belt, he won a league
title.
Like Conrad, Sacred Heart Preps Brad Yaffe,
who appears slated to start under center this sea-
son, served mainly as the backup to Thomas
Wine last season. But Yaffe saw plenty of
action, completing 48 of 84 pass attempts for
Half Moon Bays Chase Hoffmann.
itive team weve had since Ive been here, M-A
Daniel Heimuli (Jr., MLB/RB): Last season,
M-As Christian Wiseman and Stavro Papadakis
were the most dominant linebacker duo in
the county. Heimuli takes over in the middle
in 2016, ranking fifth on the team despite play-
ing in just seven of M-As 15 games.
684 yards as he played in all 12 games for the
Gators in 2016.
Half Moon Bay senior Gavin Tomberlin is
the gray beard of the Bay Division quarterback-
ing fraternity as he enters his third season as the
Cougars top signal caller. Half Moon Bay
coach Keith Holden expects he will have to
open up the passing game a little more this sea-
son to better compete with the stiffer competi-
tion in the Bay Division. At least hell have a
quarterback who knows the Cougars offense
inside and out.
Its huge [to have a three-year starting quar-
terback], Holden said. We still want to run the
ball, but we may have to throw it a little more,
stay a little more balanced.
Like several other offenses in the Bay
Division, Tomberlin and the Cougars dont
throw the ball more than 10, 15 times a game,
but his completion percentage is phenomenal.
In the first two games of the CCS playoffs,
Tomberlin completed 11 of 16 passes for 184
yards.
But there are only two numbers that concern
Holden 4 and 2.
I dont think his stats are super impressive,
but as a two-year varsity starter, he is 22-4 and
has two section championships, Holden said.
To me, thats a pretty impressive stat for a kid.

2017 opener: Fri. vs. Bellarmine, 7:30 p.m.
Outlook: Advancing to the Division 3-AA state
championship game, Menlo-Atherton was led by
a Division I-bound running back in Jordan Mims
and the Peninsula Athletic League Bay Division
Offensive Player of the Year in multi-faceted quar-
terback Aajon Johnson.
This year, the Bears will be relying on much more
brute force to get the job done. And the reigning
two-time Bay Division champs have plenty of it.
This is probably the most physical and compet-
head coach Adhir Ravipati said.
A majority of last seasons offensive line that
cleared the way for Mims to run his way to Fresno
State is returning, with senior quarterback Myles
Conrad resuming the starting role in which he
passed for 702 yards as a sophomore in 2015 be-
fore serving as backup to Johnson last season.
Where M-As physicality really translates, though,
is on defense. Not only do the Bears return an All-
PAL Bay Division first-team defensive tackle in
junior Noa Ngalu, they benefit from the addition
of senior linebacker Kilifi Leaaetoa, a senior trans-
fer who earned All-PAL Ocean Division first-team
honors as a linebacker last season at the Kings
Academy.
Ngalu and Leaaetoa are among five defenders in
M-As seven-man front who are currently fielding
Division I college offers, along with senior defen-
sive tackles Ben Makoni and Dimitri Sakalia, and
junior linebacker Daniel Heimuli. Add to that
group senior nose tackle Moala Tautuaa, who
started at Palo Alto through two underclassmen
seasons before moving to Tonga last year, and
points should be at a premium for M-A oppo-
nents this season.
M-A is jumping right into the fire of a competi-
tive non-league schedule, opening Friday against
Bellarmine.The Bears and the Bells sparked quite
the competitive rivalry last season,with M-A falling
to the West Catholic Athletic League power 34-
20 in last years season opener.When the two met
again in the Central Coast Section Open Division
semifinals, M-A redeemed itself with a 21-0 win
en route to a CCS title.
Were going to go out and schedule the best
competition we can find, Ravipati said.Its been
really good for our program and its fun how
the kids have come to embrace that.

2017 opener: Fri. vs. Gunderson-San Jose, 7 p.m.
Outlook: Growing pains marred Terra Novas
chances in the PAL Bay Division last season. Now, it
would seem the Tigers are all grown up.
While former Terra Nova star quarterback Anthony
Gordon is serving as backup to Luke Falk at Wash-
SPORTS
year, a 46-26 upset of previously undefeated Carmel
in the opening round of the Central Coast Section
Division V playoffs.
It was the crowning achievement for last years of-
fensive coordinator,Mark Grieb,as his offense gained
411 total yards while scoring its biggest single-game
point tally of the season.
This year, with former head coach Pete Lavorato
having resigned to take over the varsity football
program at the Kings Academy,Grieb takes the reins
at SHP with much of the same offense in tact, in-
cluding senior quarterback Brad Yaffe.
Yaffe was an interesting case last season.Platooning
with then-senior Thomas Wine, the 6-2, 190-pound
Yaffe was the Gators best marksman, completing
57.1 percent of his passes. This he did while split-
ting time both sides of the ball, doubling as SHPs
starting defensive end.
This year,Yaffe is slated to concentrate all his energy
on running SHPs fly offense, as Grieb insists his sen-
ington State this season, his younger brother Nate
Gordon settles into his second year as the Tigers
starting QB, after throwing for 1,917 yards in 2016.
And with four offensive starting offensive linemen
returning to front the spread option attack this year,
head coach Tim Adams is confident Terra Nova
after finishing with a sub-.500 record the past two
seasons will turn things around.
Quite frankly, Nate, he took a beating last year,
Adams said.The upside to that is he got to see a
lot of different looks and he got to play all 10 games
and didnt hold anything back.
Nate Gordons most prolific target will be senior re-
ceiver Rich Walls, who totaled 48 catches for 758
yards last season en route to All-PAL Bay Division
first-team honors. But Terra Nova will look to wreak
havoc with a tandem of slot receivers in sure-handed
Mario Fare and speedy Scotty Tomei.
Along with second tier of passing targets led by jun-
ior Jackson Kubal, who helped the junior-varsity
squad to a 10-0 record last year while averaging 45
ior QB will play exclusively offense.
Yaffes absence on defense figures to take a big bite
out of an inexperienced line.But Grieb said he hopes
a depth of linebackers will fortify the defense until
the front-line personnel gets hashed out.
Seniors Jack Donnelly and Garrett Gavello each re-
turn to outside backer after showing flashes of
greatness in 2016. Donnelly ranked third on the
team with 8.1 tackles per game, while Gavello was
SHPs sack leader with five.
Add to the middle linebacker spot junior Tavita
Moimoi a CCS playoff call-up last season, and
younger brother of the teams leading rusher Isoa
Moimoi along with John Willard, and the Gators
have a defensive foundation that can legitimately
compete with the heavy hitters of the PAL Bay Di-
vision.
We have a good group of linebackers, Grieb said.
Theyre flying around making plays. When they
play well, well play well.
points per game,Terra Nova could rekindle the 2014
aerial bonanza of the elder Gordons heyday.
Terra Nova demonstrated its potential through sev-
eral offseason passing league tournaments, posting
a 22-1 record with wins over a trio of West Catholic
Athletic League opponents,and another over archri-
val Half Moon Bay.
The experience carries over to the defensive side of
the ball as well, where Terra Nova boasts seven re-
turning starters that could literally have opposing
offenses seeing double, with a tandem of senior de-
fensive ends in twin brothers Chris and Nicholas
Rigling.
A core of newcomers will look to fortify the defense,
a group that could have helped the varsity squad last
year, but Adams said he opted to preserve the con-
tinuity of the junior-varsity success. Adams is most
excited about cornerback Giovani Fabrini, who he
called an all-league corner in the making.

Players to watch
Sacred Heart Prep
Brad Yaffe (Sr., QB): Originally starting his
varsity career as a defensive end, Yaffe
steadily earned more playing time at quar-
terback last season, finishing the year as the
Gators starting helmsman. In the first non-
platoon outing of his career in the Central
Coast Section Division V opener, Yaffe was
9 of 12 for 159 yards and two TDs in a 46-26
upset of Carmel.
Garrett Gavello (Sr., OLB/TE): If the Gators
are going to climb back into contention in
the PAL Bay Division after settling for fourth
place last season, it all has to start with the
linebackers corps, the most experienced
unit on SHPs defense. Gavello had the
biggest impact last season, leading the
team with seven tackles for losses, includ-
ing five sacks.
Terra Nova
Nate Gordon (Sr., QB): The younger
brother of Terra Novas all-time leading
passer Anthony Gordon, Nate Gordon
brings a year of starting experience and a
dynamic arm to the quarterback position.
He didnt get a lot of protection last season,
but with four returning linemen should get
the chance to prove his mettle in 2017.
Rich Walls (Sr., WR/CB): Terra Nova returns
most of Gordons favorite targets from last
season. None were more productive than
Walls though, as he totaled 48 catches for

ECLIPSE
Continued from page 11
Other teams hosting events included the
Salem-Keizer Volcanoes in Oregon, the
Idaho Falls Chukars, the Bowling Green
Hot Rods in Kentucky, Tennessees
Nashville Sounds and the Greenville Drive,
Columbia Fireflies and Charleston
RiverDogs, all in South Carolina.
The Volcanoes game against the
Hillsboro Hops started late because the
Hops got stuck in traffic. The game
stopped briefly in the first inning as fans
and players paused to watch the eclipse.
Many players donned disposable protec-
tive glasses and sat in the grass in front of
each dugout. At one point, the sellout
crowd chanted, Lets go science!
In Nebraska, the Saltdogs sold game
tickets to buyers from as far away as the
United Kingdom and Germany, team
spokesman Michael Shively said.
One of the Germans was Theo Kleinfeld,
65, who flew to Lincoln last week so he
could photograph the eclipse at the
Saltdogs game against the Gary
Southshore Railcats.
Kleinfeld said he watched the 1999
eclipse that crossed Germany and traveled
to Shanghai for another in 2009. But in
Shanghai, he said, the sky was overcast.
This is a good opportunity, Kleinfeld
said as he set up his camera outside
Saltdogs Stadium. If it doesnt work
today, Ill just have to come back in
2024, when the next total solar eclipse in
the U.S. will occur.
Paul Kobs, 38, of Minneapolis, took a
day off work and drove to Lincoln with his
girlfriend. The couple started planning the
trip three months ago and picked Lincoln
because it was one of the places closest to
their home to see the eclipse.
Kobs said they initially planned to drive
down to Beatrice, Nebraska, where eclipse
viewers gathered at the Homestead
SPORTS
National Monument, but the cloudy fore-
cast for that area persuaded him to stay in
Lincoln.
This was really the easiest place to get
to that was in the path of the totality, he
said as he walked into the Lincoln stadium.
Its a once-in-a-lifetime event that
minute and a half of experiencing some-
thing out of this world.
Jordan Wilson and his wife, Nicole,
brought their 5-year-old son, Izayah, to
the game to see the eclipse. On the way
down from their home in Omaha, the fami-
ly sat through bumper-to-bumper traffic on
Interstate 80.
Its probably the last full eclipse well
see in our lifetimes, he said.
In South Carolina, the Columbia
Fireflies celebrated a Total Eclipse of the
Park event as they hosted the Rome
Braves. The Fireflies wore special glow-in-
the-dark jerseys that were scheduled to be
auctioned after the game, with proceeds
benefiting local science, technology,
math and engineering programs.
No Major League Baseball games coin-
cided with the event, but some players
checked out the eclipse as their teams
warmed up to play hours later. And the cos-
mic spectacle caught the interest of teams
from other sports preparing for their sea-
son openers.
Tennessee Titans coach Mike Mularkey
scheduled practice to end in time so that the
team could watch the eclipse on the prac-
tice field.
It was pretty cool to be out there with
the rest of the team, looking like 9 o clock
at night at 1:30, linebacker Derrick
Morgan said.
As the Titans gathered to watch the
eclipse, Bruce Springsteens Blinded By
The Light and Dancing In The Dark and
Corey Harts Sunglasses At Night played
over the loudspeaker.
Ohio State defensive tackle Tracy
Sprinkle said he and his teammates were all
excited to see the eclipse. Weve been
talking about it in the locker room, he
said.

still happy to be on the field.
After the loss to Canada on Sunday,

Jury awards record $417M in
talcum powder-cancer suit
By Michael Balsamo
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES A Los Angeles jury on
Monday ordered Johnson & Johnson to
pay a record $417 million to a hospitalized
woman who claimed in a lawsuit that the
talc in the companys iconic baby powder
causes ovarian cancer when applied regu-
larly for feminine hygiene.
The verdict in the lawsuit brought by the
California woman, Eva Echeverria, marks
the largest sum awarded in a series of tal-
cum powder lawsuit verdicts against
Johnson & Johnson in courts around the
U.S.
Echeverria alleged Johnson & Johnson
failed to adequately warn consumers about
talcum powders potential cancer risks. She
used the companys baby powder on a daily
basis beginning in the 1950s until 2016
and was diagnosed with ovarian cancer in
2007, according to court papers.
Echeverria developed ovarian cancer as a
proximate result of the unreasonably dan-
gerous and defective nature of talcum pow-
der, she said in her lawsuit.
Echeverrias attorney, Mark Robinson,
said his client is undergoing cancer treat-
ment while hospitalized and told him she
hoped the verdict would lead Johnson &
Johnson to put additional warnings on its
products.
Mrs. Echeverria is dying from this ovar-
ian cancer and she said to me all she wanted

and 30 years, Robinson said.
She really didnt want sympathy, he
added. She just wanted to get a message
out to help these other women.
Johnson & Johnson spokeswoman Carol
Goodrich said in a statement that the com-
pany will appeal the jurys decision. She
says while the company sympathizes with
women suffering from ovarian cancer that
scientific evidence supports the safety of
Johnsons baby powder.
The verdict came after a St. Louis,
Missouri jury in May awarded $110.5 mil-
lion to a Virginia woman who was diag-
nosed with ovarian cancer in 2012.
She had blamed her illness on her use of
the companys talcum powder-containing
products for more than 40 years.
Besides that case, three other trials in St.
Louis had similar outcomes last year A Los Angeles jury has ordered Johnson & Johnson to pay $417 million in a case to a woman

Two similar cases in New Jersey were
thrown out by a judge who said the plain-

Julie Vigeland, of Portland, Oregon, said
after she was moved to tears by the sight of
the sun reduced to a silvery ring of light in
Salem.
It took 90 minutes for the shadow of the
moon to travel across the country. Along
that path, the moon blotted out the midday
sun for about two wondrous minutes at any
one place, eliciting oohs, aahs, whoops
and shouts from people gathered in stadi-
ums, parks and backyards.
It was, by all accounts, the most-
observed and most-photographed eclipse
in history, documented by satellites and
high-altitude balloons and watched on
Earth through telescopes, cameras and card-
board-frame protective eyeglasses.
In Boise, Idaho, where the sun was more
than 99 percent blocked, the street lights
flicked on briefly, while in Nashville,
Tennessee, people craned their necks at the
sky and knocked back longneck beers at
Nudies Honky Tonk bar.
Passengers aboard a cruise ship in the
Caribbean watched it unfold as Bonnie
Tyler sang her 1983 hit Total Eclipse of
the Heart.
Several minor-league baseball teams
one of them, the Columbia Fireflies, outfit-
ted for the day in glow-in-the-dark jerseys
briefly suspended play.
At the White House, despite all the warn-
ings from experts about the risk of eye
damage, President Donald Trump took off
the sun.
The path of totality, where the sun was
100 percent obscured by the moon, was just
60 to 70 miles (96 to 113 kilometers) wide.
But the rest of North America was treated to
a partial eclipse, as were Central America
and the upper reaches of South America.
Skies were clear along most of the route,
to the relief of those who feared cloud cover
would spoil the moment.
Oh, God, oh, that was amazing, said
Joe Dellinger, a Houston man who set up a
telescope on the Capitol lawn in Jefferson
City, Missouri. That was better than any
photo.
For the youngest observers, it seemed
like magic.
Its really, really, really, really awe-
some, said 9-year-old Cami Smith as she
gazed at the fully eclipsed sun in Beverly
Beach, Oregon.
NASA reported 4.4 million people were
watching its TV coverage midway through
the eclipse, the biggest livestream event in
the space agencys history.
It can be religious. It makes you feel
insignificant, like youre just a speck in
the whole scheme of things, said veteran
eclipse-watcher Mike OLeary of San
Diego, who set up his camera along with
among hundreds of other amateur
astronomers in Casper, Wyoming.
John Hays drove up from Bishop,
California, for the total eclipse in Salem,
Oregon, and said the experience will stay
with him forever.
That silvery ring is so hypnotic and
mesmerizing, it does remind you of wiz-
ardry or like magic, he said.
teenagers actually look up from their cell-
phones.
Patrick Schueck, a construction company
president from Little Rock, Arkansas,
brought his 10-year-old twin daughters Ava
and Hayden to Bald Knob Cross of Peace in
Alto Pass, Illinois, a more than 100-foot
cross atop a mountain. Schueck said at first
his girls werent very interested in the
eclipse. One sat looking at her iPhone.
Quickly that changed, he said. It went
from them being aloof to being in total
amazement. Schueck called it a chance to
do something with my daughters that
theyll remember for the rest of their
lives.
Astronomers, too, were giddy with
excitement.
NASA solar physicist Alex Young said the
last time earthlings had a connection like
this to the heavens was during mans first
flight to the moon, on Apollo 8 in 1968.
The first, famous Earthrise photo came
from that mission and, like this eclipse,
showed us we are part of something big-
ger.
NASAs acting administrator, Robert
Lightfoot, watched with delight from a
plane flying over the Oregon coast and
joked about the space-agency official next
to him, Im about to fight this man for a
window seat.
Hoping to learn more about the suns
composition and the mysterious solar
wind, NASA and other scientists watched
and analyzed it all from the ground and the
sky, including aboard the International
Space Station.
Citizen scientists monitored animal and
About 7, 000 people streamed into the
Nashville Zoo just to see the animals reac-
tion and noticed how they got noisier at it

The giraffes started running around crazi-
ly in circles when darkness fell, and the
flamingos huddled together, though
zookeepers aid it wasnt clear whether it
was the eclipse or the noisy, cheering
crowd that spooked them.
I didnt expect to get so emotionally
caught up with it. I literally had chill
bumps, said zoo volunteer Stephan Foust.
In Charleston, South Carolina, the
eclipses last stop in the U.S., college jun-
ior Allie Stern, 20, said: It was amazing. It
looked like a banana peel, like a glowing
banana peel which is kind of hard to
describe and imagine but it was super cool.
After the celestial spectacle, eclipse-
watchers heading home in Tennessee and
Wyoming spent hours stuck in traffic jams.
In Kentucky, two women watching the
eclipse while standing on a sidewalk were
struck by a car, and one has died, authorities
said.
The Earth, moon and sun line up perfectly
every one to three years, briefly turning
day into night for a sliver of the planet. But
these sights normally are in no mans land,
like the vast Pacific or Earths poles. This
is the first eclipse of the social media era to
pass through such a heavily populated area.
The last coast-to-coast total eclipse in
the U. S. was in 1918, when Woodrow
Wilson was president. The last total solar
eclipse in the U.S. was in 1979, but only
five states in the Northwest experienced
total darkness.

40 years. My personal aim is to bring
science awareness to my community
and astronomy is the best use for that .
I love it.
Janatpour split his time over the
hours leading toward the suns fullest
coverage fielding questions from
novices, sharing his expertise from a
station highlighting sunspots and
offering brief megaphone alerts to the
swarming crowd.
His announcements ranged from
reminders to not look directly at the
eclipse without the proper eyewear, to
updates on when the event would be at
its fullest around 10:15 a.m.
Looking out along the craned-neck
crowd, Janatpour struggled to recall
the last time so many people came to
the campus to enjoy a solar event.
Dan Priven-Troncoso, one of the stu-
dents from Janatpours department,
shared the educators appreciation for
the rare chance to seize broad interest
in science.
Its absolutely wonderful and great
and exciting, said Priven-Troncoso,
who offered guidance to the crowd from
one of the school telescopes.
The student who is hoping to eventu-
ally work as an educator said he
believes fervor for the eclipse could be
parlayed into growing general interest
in science.
Astronomy is the gateway drug for
science, because it is so inherently
fascinating that even people who have
no interest in science otherwise think
astronomy is compelling, he said.
So once they learn astronomy is
interesting, some choose to go into
astronomy or physics or chemistry or
whatever. But astronomy is what
brings people in.
He added the ability of large groups
to collectively enjoy rare events
together magnifies the appeal of
astronomy a point which resonated

with San Mateo resident Saskia Chan,
who also attended the CSM event.
Its great to see everyone out, said
Chan, while sitting in the lawn with
her son Jake as they watched the sun
gradually darken.
Jake Chan, who will enter the third-
grade at the International School of
the Peninsula next week, got a kick out
of the unique vision in the sky.
When I look at the sun, it kind of
reminds me of a yellow moon, he
said.
Eric Williamson, who recently grad-
uated from CSM, said the opportunity
to enjoy the eclipse with a large crowd
was also his inspiration for returning
to his former campus.
Its awesome to see everyone come
out here and enjoy it, he said.
Ernesto Valladares, who started his
first semester at the college when
classes went into session last week,
agreed.
Its pretty cool event. I like how
people are gathered for it, he said.

California.

Reptilian tail? Solar eclipse.
Taylor Swift teases her fans
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Who can eclipse an eclipse? Why,
Taylor Swift.
Just days after going dark on social
media, the pop star put out another
clue Monday leading to a possible
song drop on the same day as the big
solar eclipse. And if the lyric-sharing
site Genius was to be believed, the
tune is titled Timeless. The title was
teased there but taken down later
Monday.
As for the video clip that appears to

time-based approach, instead link-
ing its assistance to results and to
cooperation from the beleaguered
Afghan government, Pakistan and oth-
ers. He insisted it would be a region-
al strategy that addressed the role
played by other South Asian nations
especially Pakistan and its toler-
ance of the Taliban.
America will work with the Afghan
government as long as we see determi-
nation and progress, Trump said.
However, our commitment is not
unlimited, and our support is not a
blank check.
Still, Trump neither offered details
about how progress would be meas-
ured. Nor did he explain how his
approach would differ substantively
from what two presidents before him
tried unsuccessfully over the past 16
years.
Although Trump insisted he would
not talk about numbers of troops or
telegraph military moves in advance,
he hinted that hed embraced the
Pentagons proposal to boost troop
numbers by nearly 4,000, augmenting
the roughly 8,400 Americans there
now.
We will ask our NATO allies and
global partners to support our new
strategy, with additional troop and
funding increases in line with our own.
We are confident they will, Trump
said. His comments were echoed by
Defense Secretary Jim Mattis, who
said in a statement that several of
those allies had joined the U.S. in
committing to boost troop levels.
While Trump stressed his strategy
was about more than just the military,
he was vague on other aspects. He
offered no specifics on ensuring
Afghanistans economic development
or on securing a new diplomatic part-

be a twitchy reptil-
ian tail, well, were
not sure how that
might play into
Swifts anticipated
sixth studio album
that all of her
social media
shenanigans seem
Taylor Swift to be leading up to,
possibly in
October to coincide with the anniver-
sary of the release of her 1989.
The tail may or may not have some-
nership in the region.
Yet on one point the definition of
victory Trump was unequivocal. He
said American troops would fight to
win by attacking enemies, crushing
al-Qaida, preventing terror attacks
against Americans and obliterating
the Islamic State group, whose affili-
ate has gained a foothold in
Afghanistan as the U.S. squeezes the
extremists in Syria and Iraq.
Trumps definition of a win notably
did not include defeating the Taliban,
the group whose harboring of al-Qaida
led the U.S. to war in Afghanistan in
the days after the 9/11 attacks. Like
President Barack Obama before him,
Trump conceded that any solution that
brings peace to Afghanistan may well
involve the Talibans participation.
Someday, after an effective military
effort, perhaps it will be possible to
have a political settlement that
includes elements of the Taliban in
Afghanistan, Trump said.
Trump said his original instinct was
to pull out, alluding to his long-
expressed view before becoming pres-
ident that Afghanistan was an unsolv-
able quagmire requiring a fast U.S.
withdrawal. Since taking office, Trump
said, hed determined that approach
could create a vacuum that terrorists
including al-Qaida and the Islamic
State could instantly fill.
At its peak, the U.S. had roughly
100, 000 there, under the Obama
administration in 2010-2011. Trump
said the American people are weary of
war without victory.
I share the America peoples frustra-
tion, Trump said at the Armys Joint
Base Myer-Henderson Hall, in
Arlington, Virginia, across the
Potomac River from the White House.
Still, he insisted that in the end, we
will win.
Trumps speech concluded a months-
long internal debate within his admin-
istration over whether to pull back
from the Afghanistan conflict, as he

and a few advisers were inclined to do,
or to embroil the U.S. further in a war
that has eluded American solutions for
the past 16 years. Several times, offi-
cials predicted he was nearing a deci-
sion to adopt his commanders recom-
mendations, only to see the final judg-
ment delayed.
The Pentagon has argued the U.S.
must stay engaged to ensure terrorists
cant again use the territory to threaten
America. Afghan military commanders
have agreed, making clear they want
and expect continued U.S. military
help. But elected officials in the U.S.
have been mixed, with many advocat-
ing against sending more troops.
As a candidate, Trump criticized the
war and said the U.S. should quickly
pull out, but he also campaigned on a
vow to start winning wars. Exiting
now, with the Taliban resurgent, would
be impossible to sell as victory.
I think theres a relative certainty
that the Afghan government would
eventually fall, said Mark Jacobson,
an Army veteran and NATOs former
deputy representative in Kabul.
And while Trump has pledged to put
America First, keeping U.S. inter-
ests above any others, his national
security advisers have warned that the
Afghan forces are still far too weak to
succeed without help. That is especial-
ly important as the Taliban advance
and a squeezed Islamic State group
looks for new havens beyond Syria
and Iraq. Even now, Afghans govern-
ment controls just half the country.
As officers advocated for the troop
increase, the Pentagon did not claim it
would end the conflict. But military
officials maintained it could help sta-
bilize the Afghan government and
break a stalemate with the Taliban.
The setting for Monday nights
speech, Joint Base Myer-Henderson
Hall, sits alongside Arlington
National Cemetery, the final resting

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ROME An earthquake rattled the Italian
resort island of Ischia at the peak of tourist
season Monday night, killing at least one
person and trapping a half dozen others,
including children, under collapsed homes.
Police said all but one of the people
known to be trapped were responding to res-
cuers and were expected to be extracted alive.
One person, however, wasnt responding,
raising worries the death toll could increase,
said Giovanni Salerno of the financial
police.
Italys national volcanology institute
said the temblor struck a few minutes before
9 p.m., just as many people were having
dinner. The hardest-hit area was
Casamicciola, on the northern part of the
island.
There was great discrepancy in the magni-
tude reported: Italys national vulcanology
agency put the initial magnitude at 3.6,
though it revised it to a 4.0 sustained mag-
nitude with a shallow depth of 5 kilometers
was spotted outside a train station west of
Barcelona on Monday afternoon. A second
witness told police she was certain she had
seen the man whose photo has gone around
the world as part of an international man-
hunt.
Two officers found him hiding in a near-
by vineyard and asked for his identifica-
tion, according to the head of the Catalan
police. He was shot to death when he
opened his shirt to reveal what looked to
be explosives and cried out Allah is great
in Arabic, regional police chief Josep Luis
Trapero said.
A bomb disposal robot was dispatched to
THE DAILY JOURNAL
(3 miles) in the waters just off the island.
The U.S. Geological Survey and the
European-Mediterranean Seismological
Center gave it a 4.3 magnitude, with a depth
of 10 kilometers (6 miles).
While such discrepancies and revisions
are common, Italian officials complained
that the Italian agencys initial low 3.6-
magnitude greatly underestimated the power
of the temblor.
At least one hotel and parts of a hospital
were evacuated. A doctor at the Rizzoli hos-
pital, Roberto Allocca, told Sky TG24 that
some 26 people were being treated for minor
injuries at a makeshift emergency room set
up on the hospital grounds. He said the situ-
ation was calm and under control.
Salerno confirmed one woman was killed
by falling masonry. At least three people
were extracted from the rubble, the civil pro-
tection said.
Civil protection crews, already on the
island in force to fight the forest fires that
have been ravaging southern Italy, were
checking the status of the buildings that suf-
fered damage.
examine the downed suspect before police
determined the bomb belt was not real,
Trapero said. A bag full of knives was
found with his body, police said.
A police photo of the body seen by the
Associated Press showed his bloodied
face, bearing several days stubble on the
chin.
With Abouyaaqoubs death, the group
responsible for last weeks fatal van
attacks has now been broken, Trapero said.
The arrest of this person was the priori-
ty for the police because it closed the
detention and dismantling of the group
that we had identified, he said.
