County OKs Big Wave project

Development combines office park with housing for individuals with developmental disabilities
By Bill Silverfarb
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Nearly 15 years in the works,

the Big Wave project slated to be
built on the coast was approved
again by the San Mateo County
Board of Supervisors four years
after it first gained the boards
approval.
This time, the boards approval
should stick, said Supervisor Don
Horsley.

The project combines an office

park and housing for individuals
with developmental disabilities
just north of Half Moon Bay on
the coast.
Although the board approved
the project in 2011, it was delayed
due to challenges by environmentalists who argued the project did
not fit in with sensitive coastal
zones.
The boards decision was almost
immediately appealed to the

California Coastal Commission

which has the authority to tweak
the project or halt it altogether.
The groups who appealed included
the Committee for Green
Foothills, the Loma Prieta
Chapter of the Sierra Club, the
Surfrider Foundation, the San
Mateo County League for
Coastside Protection and the
Pillar
Ridge
Homeowners
Association.
The project, however, has been

scaled down significantly since

the 2011 proposal.
The boards decision could be
appealed again to the California
Coastal Commission but Horsley
said he feels confident the scaleddown project in Moss Beach will
pass muster with the commission.
Project founder Jeff Peck, a El
Granada resident with an adult
daughter who is developmentally
disabled, expects Big Wave to be
appealed again to the Coastal

Commission but expects a different outcome this time.

Coastal Commission staff has
reviewed the new project and
determined there are no significant issues, Peck said Wednesday.
The Big Wave Wellness Center
and Office Park is comprised of a
97, 500-square-foot residential
facility for up to 50 developmentally disabled adults and a business

Finding the right campus to educate high school students who

Oil spill spreads across 9 miles of Pacific

By Christopher Weber and Brian Melley
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

GOLETA An oil spill from a ruptured

onshore pipeline that fouled beaches and
threatened wildlife along a scenic stretch of
the California coast spread across 9 miles of
ocean Wednesday and officials said up to
105,000 gallons may have leaked out.
Up to a fifth of that amount 21,000
gallons reached the sea, according to
estimates.
Federal regulators were investigating the
leak as workers in protective suits raked and
shoveled stinky black goo off the beaches,
and boats towed booms into place to corral
the two slicks off the Santa Barbara coast.
The coastline was the scene of a much
larger spill in 1969 the largest in U.S.
waters at the time that is credited with
giving rise to the American environmental
movement.
Crude was flowing through the pipe at
84,000 gallons an hour when the leak was
detected Tuesday. It took three hours to shut
down, though company officials didnt say
how long it leaked before it was discovered
or discuss the rate at which oil escaped.

Federal regulators from the Department of

Transportation, which oversees oil pipeline
safety, investigated the leaks cause, the
pipes condition and the potential regulatory violations.
The 24-inch pipe built in 1991 had no
previous problems and was thoroughly
inspected in 2012, according to Plains All
American Pipeline LP, which owns the pipe.
The pipe underwent similar tests about two
weeks ago, though the results had not been
analyzed yet.
Plains is taking responsibility and paying for everything associated with this
spill, said Darren Palmer, a district manager with the company.
There was no estimate on the cost of the
cleanup or how long it might take.
A combination of soiled beaches and pungent stench of petroleum caused state parks
officials to close Refugio State Beach and El
Capitan State Beach, both popular campgrounds west of Santa Barbara, over the
Memorial Day weekend.
Still, tourists were drawn to pull off the
Pacific Coast Highway to eye the disaster
from overlooking bluffs.
It smells like what they use to pave the

roads, said Fan Yang, of Indianapolis, who

was hoping to find cleaner beaches in Santa
Barbara, about 20 miles away. Im sad for
the birds if they lose their habitat.
The toll on wildlife was not immediately
known, but biologists tallied dead fish and
crustaceans along sandy beaches and rocky
shores while rescuers were available to treat
oiled creatures.
The state Department of Fish and Wildlife
closed fishing and shellfish harvesting for a
mile east and west of Refugio beach and it
deployed booms to protect the nesting and
foraging habitat of the snowy plover and
the least tern, both endangered shore birds.
The coastal area is habitat for seals, sea
lions and whales, which are now migrating
north through the area.
Environmental groups used the spill as an
opportunity to take a shot at fossil fuels and
remind people of the areas notoriety with
oil spills.
Big Oil comes with big risks from
drilling to delivery, said Bob Deans,
spokesman for the Natural Resources
Defense Council. Santa Barbara learned
that lesson over 40 years ago when offshore
drilling led to disaster.

Guilty verdict in drunk driving deaths of Menlo Park couple

By Sara Gaiser
BAY CITY NEWS SERVICE

A Redwood City woman was convicted of

murder Wednesday morning in the 2013
deaths of a Menlo Park couple she struck
with her car while driving drunk, San Mateo
County District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe
said.
Marjorie Reitzell, 55, was convicted by a
jury Wednesday morning of two counts of
second-degree murder, two counts of gross
vehicular manslaughter and drunk driving
charges. The jury deliberated for less than a

day and a half, according to Wagstaffe.

With a prior DUI conviction from 2012,
Reitzell faces a potential sentence of 33
years to life in prison, Wagstaffe said.
Reitzell had been drinking heavily shortly before 7 p.m. on Oct. 24, 2013, when she
veered off of Chilco Street in Menlo Park
and struck Kamal Singh, 45, and Balbir
Singh, 50, from behind.
The husband and wife, who were walking
their dog alongside the road, were killed at
the scene and their dog was injured.
Reitzell then swerved across the center
divider, hit another car, causing minor
injuries to the occupants, and slammed into

a tree. She was hospitalized after the crash

and was found to have a blood-alcohol level
of .23, nearly three times the legal limit,
Wagstaffe said.
The Singhs left behind three teenage children.
Reitzell was ordered to return to court for
sentencing on June 26.

Farmers propose water cuts to avoid bigger pinch

By Fenit Nirappil and Scott Smith

Q&A on California
senior water rights

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SACRAMENTO A group of
California farmers, in a surprising
turnaround, is volunteering to give up
a fourth of its available water this year,
sharing a resource all but guaranteed to
them for more than a century.
A senior water official told the
Associated Press Wednesday that he
would decide whether to accept the
offer by Friday. The concession by
farmers in the Sacramento and San
Joaquin river delta could be one of the
most important yet forced by
Californias record four-year drought.
In exchange for taking 25 percent
less river water for irrigation or leaving a quarter of their fields unplanted,
the farmers want guarantees that the
state wont restrict the remaining 75
percent of the water theyve had rights
to for more than a century, even if the
drought deepens and other users go
dry.
The offer was made as these and other
senior water rights holders face an
imminent threat of being included in
the mandatory cutbacks that apply to
most other California water users.
Water Resources Control Board
Director Tom Howard told the AP
Wednesday that whatever he decides
will apply beyond the river delta to the
entire basin of the Sacramento River,
which supplies most of the surface
water in the food-producing Central
Valley and provides drinking water to
homeowners across California.
Should we make an offer like that
early, to give people clarity and regu-

Farmers and other landowners who staked the earliest

claims to Californias water are last to suffer cutbacks at times
of drought under the states water-rights system. Now the
dry spell has become so severe that even some of these
4,000 senior water rights holderscould be ordered to stop
pumping from rivers and streams. A brief primer:

WHO ARE THEY?

More than half are corporations, such as power companies
that use water for hydroelectric dams. Rural irrigation districts
in Modesto and the Sierra Foothills have claims, and water
departments in San Francisco and Los Angeles are among
the biggest users. A Carmel retirement community has these
rights, as does Star Trek actor and ranch owner William
Shatner.

latory certainty, or is there not enough
water to really make a difference?
Howard asked. Were just trying to
make sure if the offer makes sense.
The decision on the offer would
apply only to those who have rights to
water because their property runs
alongside a particular river or stream,
Howard said. However, it is unclear
whether a 25-percent cut to those
rights holders would be enough to protect waterways that are drying up
around much of the state, following a
winter of below-average rainfall and
record-low snows in the Sierra Nevada.
Should we make an offer like that
early, to give people clarity and regulatory certainty, or is there not enough
water to really make a difference?

Howard asked. Were just trying to

make sure if the offer makes sense.
Delta water managers say it could
become a model for farmers throughout
California who are facing curtailments. It also could have an eventual
impact on food prices, since
California farmers use 80 percent of
the water drawn from the land.
State officials had threatened to take
action as early as this week against
senior water rights, some dating to
claims made during the Gold Rush era,
long before industrialization in the
20th Century led to climate change.
The rights give nearly 4,000 landowners the strongest claims in California
to this precious and increasingly limited resource.

Feds providing $50M for Western water-saving projects

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LOS ANGELES The U.S. government will invest nearly $50 million in
water conservation and reuse projects
in 12 drought-stricken Western states,
Interior Secretary Sally Jewell
announced Wednesday.
It is absolutely critical that states
and the federal government leverage our
funding resources so that we can make
each drop count, Jewell said at a wastewater purification plant in Los Angeles.
The money will partially fund more
than 60 projects in Arizona, California,
Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Nebraska,

Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Texas,

Utah and Washington.
It will help pay for studies and projects to stretch water supplies by creating pipelines, eliminating leaky open
canals and upgrading existing reclamation and water treatment plants.
The idea is to conserve water in order
to replenish shrinking groundwater
supplies and ease the use of expensive
imported water.
California and Texas, with huge agricultural, industrial and residential
demands on water supply, have the
lions share of the projects.
About $5 million in federal funding

will go to help build more than 20

miles of recycled water pipeline, add a
pair of 2.75-million gallon storage
reservoirs and make other improvements to a program that provides recycled water throughout Santa Clara
County in Californias Silicon Valley.
Other projects include building a
wastewater collection and treatment
plant in Yucca Valley to replenish the
groundwater in the California high
desert area; building pipelines and
pumping stations to provide reclaimed
water for irrigation; and restoring salt
marsh and other habitat in Marin,
Sonoma and Napa counties.

HOW DID THEY GET WATER RIGHTS?

Establishing an early right to California water was as simple
as going ahead and diverting it. Paperwork came later. San
Francisco got the Sierra Nevada water that turned its sand
dunes into lush gardens by tacking a handwritten notice to
a tree in 1902. The state started requiring applications and
monitoring consumption after 1914, but exempted previous
claims.

WHO WATCHES THEM?

The State Water Resources Control Board oversees the water
rights system and decides when conditions are too dry to
meet demand. Every three years, it requires senior water
rights holders to report how much water they have diverted,
used and conserved. Since regulators lack widespread
remote sensors or meters, they depend largely on the honor
system to guard against illegal uses.

SO HOW MUCH DO THEY USE?

It amounts to trillions of gallons a year, but no one knows
exactly how much. An Associated Press investigation last
year found the data riddled with obvious errors. State water
officials concede they need better real-time monitoring of
flows and diversions. As it is, they generally enforce cutback
orders when someone complains.

WHY DO THEY HAVE SPECIAL STATUS?

Much of the parched American West was developed around
the principle that water goes to those who claimed the
limited resource first. Unused water may be sold or
transferred. But California is unusual among western states,
in that it doesnt monitor senior rights holders as closely as
it does junior rights holders.

Grass fire causes hazmat

scene near San Mateo Bridge
A small grassfire on the south side of
State Route 92 near Beach Park Boulevard
Tuesday afternoon was quickly extinguished
but caused a hose at the bottom of a 550gallon chemical tank on a construction
truck to leak, according to fire officials.
At about 2:25 p.m., firefighters from the
Foster City/San Mateo/Belmont Fire
Department responded to a report of grass
fire of about 150 feet long by 20 feet wide.
The fire was at a construction site for workers renovating the San Mateo Bridge. A road
surfacing truck was damaged on the rear passenger side and contained several chemicals, which prompted the hazardous material response, according to fire officials.
Firefighters discovered a dripping leak
from the bottom of the trucks tank and contained the leak to about 15 gallons. The area
was evacuated and a nearby school was told
to shelter in place, according to fire officials.
The cause of the fire is under investigation and the shelter in place was lifted when
the area was rendered safe, according to fire
officials.

with the potential to kill or injure patients
including three in the Bay Area and one in
Monterey County.
Seton Medical Center in Daly City,
California Pacific Medical Center in San
Francisco and Marin General Hospital in
Greenbrae were among the hospitals ordered
to pay fines for violations of licensing
requirements.
Seton was fined $50,000 in connection
with a July 2012 incident in which a patient
with cardiac issues and a history of falls fell
in a shower while hospitalized and suffered a
bump to her head, health department officials said in a report on the incident.
The hospital did not have a policy in
place for dealing with patient falls, as
required by state law, and nurses did not conduct a thorough check of the patient after
the fall, according to the report. The next
day she began to show signs of changes in
her gait, followed by mental and physical
deterioration. She was declared brain dead
just a few days later.
Penalties levied on hospitals vary
depending on the date on which the violation occurred and the number of violations a
hospital has had during a given time period,
health department officials said.
Hospitals can appeal an administrative
penalty by requesting a hearing.

Suspects in chase,
crash face new charges
The three men arrested after leading San
Mateo police on a highway chase May 4
before crashing into a guardrail pleaded not
guilty to an amended complaint that
includes gang allegations, according to the
San Mateo County District Attorneys
Office.
The suspects, 21-year-old Christian
Rivera, of South San Francisco, 22-year-old
Mario Alvarado, of Redwood City, and 20year-old Brian Esqueda, of Burlingame, also
had their cases consolidated into one,
according to prosecutors.

The three were allegedly trying to steal a

TV and other items from a residence on the
3600 block of Santiago Street in the San
Mateo Village neighborhood at about on
the evening of May 4, according to police.
At 6:20 p.m., officers responded to a
report of a suspicious male seen leaving a
home and attempting to put a TV inside a
waiting gray Nissan, police said.
Within minutes, officers arrived to the
area and located the Nissan as it was heading
north on Highway 101 at Hillsdale
Boulevard, according to police.
Police said officers initiated a traffic stop
on Highway 101 near State Route 92 and the
Nissan pulled over.
As officers attempted to conduct the traffic stop, police said the vehicle sped off and
officers, along with California Highway
Patrol, followed.
According to police, after about a mile the
Nissan attempted to exit the freeway at
Kehoe Avenue in the Shoreview neighborhood. Police said the driver lost control of
the vehicle, causing it to collide with a
guardrail on the exit ramp.
Police said they were able to recover
stolen property from the Santiago Street
residence inside the vehicle.
The suspects are due back in court June 19
for a preliminary hearing.

Bay Bridge tower rod is fractured

SAN FRANCISCO State officials say
one of the steel rods that anchors the Bay
Bridge eastern spans tower to its foundation is fractured.
Project chief engineer Brian Maroney
says officials do not yet know whether
stewing in the saltwater caused the rod to
corrode. He said tests would be needed to
determine why the rod fractured somewhere
above its base, the newspaper reported.
Maroney says he is hopeful that no other
rods have been damaged.
The rod was one of 424 installed at the
base of the tower to strengthen the $6.4 billion bridge against a massive earthquake.
The new span opened in September 2013.

Barack Obama speaks at the 134th Commencement Exercises of the United States Coast
Guard Academy.

President: Global
warming a threat
to national security
By Nancy Benac
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON President Barack

Obama is framing the challenges of climate
change as a matter of national security that
threatens to aggravate poverty and political
instability around the globe and jeopardize
the readiness of U.S. forces.
Make no mistake, it will impact how our
military defends our country, the president
says in excerpts of a commencement address
prepared for delivery Wednesday at the U.S.
Coast Guard Academy in New London,
Connecticut. And so we need to act and we
need to act now.
The president in recent months has
pressed for action on climate change as a
matter of health, as a matter of environmental protection and as a matter of international obligation. Hes even couched it as a family matter, linking it to the worry he felt
when one his daughters had an asthma attack
as a preschooler.
His speech to the cadets, by contrast, is
focused on what the Obama administration
says are immediate risks to national securi-

James D. De Hart
James D. De Hart, 61, of Redwood City,
died May 18, 2015, in Burlingame,
California.
Preceded in death by his parents Robert
and Margaret De Hart of South San
Francisco, California. Survived by his sister Janine De Hart of Albany, California;
Emily and Morgan McLoughlin, his niece
and nephew. He was a graduate of California
Polytechnic in the area of urban planning,
and he was an Eagle Scout and an employee

ty, including contributing to more natural

disasters that result in humanitarian crises
and potential new flows of refugees. Further,
the president sees climate change aggravating poverty and social tensions that can fuel
instability and foster terrorist activity and
other violence.
Obama said the cadets would be part of the
first generation of officers to begin their
service in a world where it is increasingly
clear that climate change will shape how
every one of our services plan, operate,
train, equip and protect their infrastructure.
His prepared remarks said climate change
is not just a problem for countries on the
coast or for certain regions of the world.
Climate change impacts every country on
the planet.
As for the impact in the U.S., Obama
pointed to streets in Miami and Charleston,
South Carolina, that flood at high tide and
to military bases around the country already
feeling negative effects.
Around Norfolk, high tides and storms
increasingly flood parts of our Navy base
and an air base, Obama said of military
facilities in Virginia.

WASHINGTON In Congress roiling

debate over trade, one senator calls his
efforts to protect the U.S. catfish industry a
matter of averting the dangers of exposure
to foreign agriculture drugs.
Another senator, trying to help
Michigans auto making industry, talks
chiefly about Japans alleged currency
manipulation.
Whenever trade laws are rewritten, protected industries fight to hold the line, while
others seek new advantages. They rarely
spell it out that plainly, lest they be accused
of seeking special protections.
But others are happy to do it for them.
Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., calls the catfish industrys position one of the most
brazen and reckless and protectionist programs that I have encountered. His effort to
end it is among several proposed trade amendments awaiting Senate action this week.

At issue is a long-delayed law intended to

shift catfish inspections from the Food and
Drug Administration to the Agriculture
Department.
Supporters,
including
Republican Sen. Thad Cochran of
Mississippi, say consumer safety is at
stake.
But McCain and other critics say the real
motive is to raise a new and higher hurdle to
catfish imports from other nations, mainly
Vietnam. The FDA is perfectly capable of
inspecting imported catfish, McCain says,
and theres no need to expand the federal
government to duplicate the job its done
for years.
Cochran said in a Senate speech that shifting catfish inspections to the USDA has
nothing to do with trade, and is only
about the health and safety of American
consumers.
But others note that Mississippi is the
nations top catfish producer, and Cochran
has a long history of promoting the industry.

Pakistan arrests suspects in

attack that killed 47 Shiites
By Munir Ahmed
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ISLAMABAD Pakistans interior minister on Wednesday announced a breakthrough in the case of last weeks Karachi
bus attack that killed 47 minority Shiite
Muslims, saying police have arrested the
suspected mastermind and several gunmen
involved in the assault.
Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khans announcement
in Islamabad came just hours after the army
said it had killed 13 militants in airstrikes
in a tribal region bordering Afghanistan.
Khan said the arrests were the result of an
excellent coordination between police and
intelligence agencies in Sindh province,
of which Karachi is the capital. The minister
did not say when the arrests were made or
give any details on the affiliation of the

gunmen. He said some of those arrested confessed to taking part in the attack.
Both a Pakistani militant group linked to
the Islamic State, which is fighting in Iraq
and Syria, and a Pakistani Taliban splinter
group have claimed responsibility for the
May 13 assault during which gunmen
stormed a bus with members of the Ismaili
Shiite branch, forced them to bow their
heads, then shot and killed them.
Sindh provinces chief minister, Qaim Ali
Shah, said during a televised news conference Wednesday that the arrested men were
the same people who last month killed
Sabeen Mahmud, a womens rights activist
gunned down after she hosted a discussion
forum about nationalists in the countrys
Baluchistan region, which has been
engulfed in a low-level insurgency for years.
Mahmuds killing drew international condemnation.

Ukraine open to hosting

missile-defense system
By Peter Leonard

KIEV, Ukraine Ukraine is open to considering proposals to place a ballistic missile-defense system on its territory to ward
off the risk of attacks from Russia, a senior
Ukrainian defense official said Wednesday.
So far no one has offered.
Oleksandr Turchynov, the head of
Ukraines National Security Council, told
Ukrinform news agency in an interview that
Russia has become an increased threat since
annexing the Black Sea peninsula of Crimea

and increasing its military presence there.

Russian news agencies cited Kremlin
spokesman Dmitry Peskov as saying
Wednesday that the deployment of a missile-defense system in Ukraine would force
Russia to adopt countermeasures.
In Washington, State Department spokeswoman Marie Harf said Theres no offer or
plan to place U.S. or NATO ballistic missile
defense systems in Ukraine. I dont think
were exactly sure what theyre referring
to.
Ukraine has repeatedly raised alarms
about what it sees as Russias aggressive
military posture.

Hundreds saved from Boko

By Ibrahim Abdulaziz and Michelle Faul
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

YOLA, Nigeria All 275 women, girls

and children rescued from Boko Haram and
taken to the safety of a northeast Nigerian
refugee camp have been taken into military
custody amid suspicions that some are aiding the Islamic extremists, a camp official
and a Nigerian military intelligence officer
said Wednesday.
They said soldiers on Tuesday took the
group from Malkohi Camp to the airport at
Yola city, where a military plane flew them
to an unknown destination.
Spokesman Sani Datti of the National
Emergency Management Agency, which
manages the camp, said he was aware that
soldiers removed the group but said he had
no other information about an entirely
military affair.
The army spokesman for 23rd Armoured
Brigade in Yola could not be immediately
reached for comment.

An intelligence officer told the Associated

Press the move followed fears that some
women were communicating at night with
Boko Haram. The camp official said the suspicions were voiced during trauma counseling sessions. Both requested anonymity
because the affair is sensitive.
The group which includes 67 women
and girls and the rest young children was
brought to Malkohi on May 2.
They told the Associated Press heartrending stories of their captivity and the trauma
of their rescue from a Sambisa Forest camp,
where Boko Haram fighters stoned several
of them to death. Others were crushed accidentally by a military armored car and three
women died when a land mine exploded. All
the rescued children were badly malnourished.
One young woman, Binta Ibrahim, told
how at 16 she rescued three children aged
between 2 and 4, cared for them during a year
of captivity under Boko Haram and brought
them to the safety of the refugee camp.

IS seizes ancient
town of Palmyra
By Zaina Karam
and Sameer N. Yacoub
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BEIRUT Islamic State

extremists captured the ancient
Syrian town of Palmyra after government defense lines there collapsed Wednesday, a stunning triumph for the group only days
after it captured the strategic city
of Ramadi in Iraq.
It was unclear by nightfall how
close to Palmyras famed archaeological site the militants had
advanced, activists said, adding
that Syrian soldiers were seen
fleeing the area.
The ruins at Palmyra are one of
the worlds most renowned historic sites and there were fears the
extremists would destroy them as
they did major archaeological
sites in Iraq. The UNESCO world
heritage site is famous for its
2,000-year-old towering Romanera colonnades and other ruins
and priceless artifacts. Before the
war, thousands of tourists a year
visited the remote desert outpost,
a cherished landmark referred to
by Syrians as the Bride of the
Desert.
The fall of the town to the
Islamic State group after a week
of fighting was an enormous loss
to the government, not only
because of its cultural significance, but because it opens the
way for the extremists to advance
to key government-held areas,

including Damascus and the

Syrian coast to the south and
southwest, as well as the contested eastern city of Deir el-Zour to
the east.
Next to it are also important
gas and oil fields in the countrys
central region.
It was not immediately clear
how close the militants were to
the ruins, which are just southwest of the town.
I am terrified, said Maamoun
Abdulkarim, Syrias director-general of antiquities and museums.
This is a PR battle for Daesh,
and they will insist on scoring
victory against civilization by
destroying the ancient ruins, he
said, using the Arabic acronym
for the group.
The fall of Palmyra just days
after Islamic State fighters seized
the strategic Iraqi city of Ramadi
showed the extremists ability to
advance on multiple fronts at
opposite ends of a sprawling battlefield that spans the two countries and erased any sense that
recent IS losses in Tikrit and elsewhere had dealt a major blow to
the militants.
The Syrian Observatory for
human rights reported that government forces collapsed in the
face of IS attacks and withdrew
from the town late Wednesday.
Beibares Tellawi, an activist in
Homs province, also confirmed
IS was in control of the town.
He said the militants had

reached the notorious Tadmur
prison, where thousands of
Syrian dissidents have been
imprisoned and tortured over the
years. The fate of the prisoners,
believed to number around 1,000,
was not immediately known.
Syrian state TV acknowledged
that pro-government forces had
withdrawn from Palmyra, and the
IS-affiliated
Aaamaq
News
Agency reported the town was
under the complete control of
the Islamic State fighters. IS
fighters had also seized control of
the Jazl oil field in the Homs

countryside, the Aaamaq report

said.
Earlier Wednesday, Homs governor Talal Barazzi said Islamic
State militants had infiltrated
overnight into some districts in
the northern part of Palmyra and
were engaged in fierce gun battles
with government forces as
snipers roamed the streets. He
said at least 19 people had died by
early Wednesday, including seven
civilians and 12 from the progovernment militia known as the
National Defense Forces. It was
not immediately known how
many people died as fighting

continued throughout the day.

Abdulkarim said workers were
able to save hundreds of statues
and masterpieces from Palmyra
that were transported to safe
houses in Damascus. But how do
you save colonnades that weigh a
ton? How do you save temples
and cemeteries and, and, and? he
asked.
He appealed to the international community to declare a red
line around Palmyra and called
on the U.S.-led coalition to at
least prevent IS convoys from
reaching it.

MILLBRAE

Some
say
that
science and religion
dont mix. Some
say that science is
the ultimate search
for God. Some say
religion supersedes
science, some say both have equal stature
and others say both are hogwash. Everyone
has their own personal assessment of the
correlation between science and religion.
The aspiration of religion along with the
aspiration of science is to explain the
universe and answer questions about life, in
addition to satisfying human psychological
needs when dealing with the realities of
death. Religion is based on faith, science is
based on observation, and both are based on
human curiosity and the need to find
answers. Whether a person is repetitively
reading religious scripture, or fascinated by
repeatable scientific experimentations, both
are searching for methods that answer
questions about the universe around us.
It can be debated that early humans
turned to religion as a way to alleviate their
fears and gain reassurance with the concept
of life after death. This helped to give them
a sense of order in a confusing world that
often seemed mysterious.
Eventually
scientific realization evolved along side
religion and the process of trial and error
established itself as a way to solve some of
these mysteries. Firethe wheelfarming.
The more humans observed the world they
lived in, the more they leaned how the
natural world worked and how they could
manipulate it to their advantage. Over the
centuries religious power came at odds with
scientific discovery, which led to a period of

scientific stagnation: The Dark Ages.

Later at the dawn of The Renaissance
science was again embraced leading to great
advances in art, architecture, medicine,
astronomy and other natural sciences. Over
the ages science and religion have been
evolving together on a roller coaster ride of
acceptance, denial and equilibrium.
We now appear to be at a crossroads
where religion is not only viewing science
with an evaluative broadmindedness, but is
exploring hand in hand with scientific
processes.
One prime example is the
Vaticans
Pontifical
Academy
of
Sciences. Quoting John Paul II: ...today
eminent scientists are members a visible
sign of the profound harmony that can
exist between the truths of science and the
truths of faith.... Gregor Mendel, the father
of Genetics, was an Augustinian Friar.
Georges Lemaitre, who developed much of
the Big Bang Theory, was a Belgian priest.
Recently, Pope Francis, who has a Masters
Degree in Chemistry, insisted that there is
no reason to believe that science and God
are incompatible.
With all this in mind, every human being
is unique as a fingerprint, and every human
brain has its own unique consciousness.
Whether you analyze with your religious cap
or your science cap, matrimony between the
two could be found by looking inward. So,
close your eyes, examine your deep
thoughts, and you may detect a rational
enlightenment finely attuned to both.

Banks fined more than $5B, to plead guilty to market rigging

By Ken Sweet and Eric Tucker
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Four of the worlds

biggest banks agreed Wednesday to pay more
than $5 billion in penalties and plead guilty
to rigging the currency markets a rare
instance in which federal prosecutors have
wrung an admission of criminal wrongdoing
from a major financial institution.
Traders at JPMorgan Chase, Citigroups
banking unit Citicorp, Barclays and the
Royal Bank of Scotland were accused of
working together to manipulate rates on the
foreign exchange market, where hundreds of
billions of dollars and euros change hands
back and forth.
The penalties are a victory for the government and reflect a broader effort by the

Justice Department, long criticized as reluctant to prosecute big banks, to tackle financial misconduct.
In the past 18 months, prosecutors have
brought criminal cases against banks
accused of tax evasion and sanctions violations, and have reached multibillion-dollar
settlements with several others for their
roles in the 2008 financial meltdown.
Still, the punishment announced
Wednesday may have limited practical consequences.
The four banks will be able to continue to
do business in the currency markets. No
executives were charged, though that part of
the investigation continues. And the fines,
while large, are a fraction of what the institutions have made through currency trading
over the past decade.
Prosecutors said traders shared customer

orders through chat rooms and used that

information to profit at their clients
expenses. The traders called themselves The
Cartel, and in one of those chat rooms, a
Barclays employee wrote: if you aint cheating, you aint trying, investigators said.
The banks will pay a combined $2.5 billion in criminal penalties for manipulation
of currency rates between 2007 and 2013.
The Federal Reserve is slapping them with
an additional $1.6 billion in fines. Finally,
Britains Barclays is paying an additional
$1.3 billion to British and U.S. regulators.
A fifth bank, Switzerlands UBS which
was scrutinized years earlier in a similar
scheme has agreed to plead guilty to
manipulating key interest rates and will pay
a separate criminal penalty of $203 million.

Despite growth uptick, full recovery still far for Europe

By David McHugh
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

FRANKFURT, Germany Europes

economy has been down so long, even
a bit of growth looks like recovery.
Markets were cheered, to be sure, by
last weeks figure showing an improvement in the eurozones growth to 0.4
percent in the first three months of the
year. Cheap oil helped, as has the
launch of a 1.1 trillion monetary stimulus by the European Central Bank.
But that cant mask the currency
unions long-term sluggishness.
The fact remains:
The 19-country eurozone economy
is still smaller than it was before the

global financial crisis that started in

2007-2008.
The eurozone lags almost four years
behind the United States, which recovered the output lost during the global
financial crisis in late 2011.
It could take another year before
Europe regains pre-crisis levels.
Thats a good eight years after the crisis.
Gross domestic output all the
spending on goods and services in the
economy was 2.434 trillion euros
($2. 72 trillion) in the first three
months of the year. Thats below the
2.472 trillion euros from the first quarter of 2008, by about 1.5 percent, once
adjusted for inflation.

Mark Zandi, chief economist at

Moodys Analytics, thinks it will be
the first quarter of 2016 before the
2008 level is breached. Reducing the
current unemployment rate of 11.3
percent will take even longer and
reaching full employment could take
another four or five years.
By that measure, it will truly be
more than a lost decade a decade and
some, said Zandi. Very disappointing.
Unemployment will be one of the
themes of an elite conference the ECB
will hold Thursday through Saturday.
Here are some of the reasons why
Europes recovery has been so slow in
coming.

House panel votes to repeal country-origin meat labeling law

By Mary Clare Jalonick
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON A House committee has voted to get rid of labels on

packages of meat that say where the
animals were born, raised and slaughtered.
The House Agriculture Committee
voted 38-6 to repeal a country-of-origin labeling law for beef, pork and
poultry Wednesday just two days
after the World Trade Organization

ruled against parts of the law. The

labels tell consumers what countries
the meat is from: for example, born in
Canada, raised and slaughtered in the
United States or born, raised and
slaughtered in the United States.
The WTO ruled Monday that the U.S.
labels put Canadian and Mexican livestock at a disadvantage, rejecting a
U.S. appeal after a similar WTO decision last year.
The Obama administration had
already revised the labels once to try to

comply with previous WTO rulings.

Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack has
said its now up to Congress to change
the law to avoid retaliation such as
extra tariffs from the two neighbor
countries.
The law was initially written at the
behest of northern U.S. ranchers who
compete with the Canadian cattle
industry. It also was backed by some
consumer advocates who say it helps
shoppers know where their food comes
from.

parent level by a major financial institution,

is not something that they enter into lightly, nor is it something they enter into with
any great joy in their hearts, Attorney
General Loretta Lynch said.
All told, including an agreement
announced last year, the group of banks will
pay nearly $9 billion in fines for manipulating the $5.3 trillion currency market.
Still, JPMorgan Chase had $4.1 billion in
revenue from its fixed income and currencies
business in the first quarter of this year
alone, while Citi had $3.48 billion.
It is rare to see a bank plead guilty to
wrongdoing. Even in the aftermath of the
meltdown, most financial companies
reached non-prosecution agreements or
deferred prosecution agreements with regulators, agreeing to pay tens of billions in
fines but not admitting any guilt.

Business briefs
Settlement reached with
Transocean in 2010 oil spill
NEW ORLEANS A committee of lawyers representing
businesses and individuals who claim damages from the
2010 Gulf of Mexico oil spill announced a $211 million
settlement Wednesday with Transocean Ltd., owner of the
ill-fated Deepwater Horizon drilling rig.
BP leased the rig from Transocean. The April 2010 explosion of the rig killed 11 workers and sent oil spewing into
the Gulf of Mexico for 87 days.
Court rulings have put the brunt of responsibility for the
disaster on BP. But Transocean and Houston-based cement
contractor Halliburton also were found to have some
responsibility.
Halliburton reached a $1 billion settlement with plaintiffs last year.
Notice of the preliminary settlement agreement has not
yet been filed in federal court in New Orleans, where U.S.
District Judge Carl Barbier presides over the oil spill cases.
A release from the Plaintiffs Steering Committee said the
settlement is worth nearly $211.8 million.

Target beating Wal-Mart in race for turnaround

NEW YORK Target is beating Wal-Mart in the race to
beef up sales.
Target Corp. on Wednesday reported a nearly 52 percent
surge in its first-quarter profit on strong sales of more profitable items like fashion and baby products, evidence that
its efforts to turn around its business are paying off.
The results handily beat Wall Street expectations on all
fronts, and the Minneapolis-based retailer boosted the bottom end of its annual profit outlook.
Thats in contrast with rival Wal-Mart, which missed Wall
Street estimates with its earnings report a day earlier.

SHP scratches out run in bottom of 11th to win CCS opener

By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Sacred Heart Prep left-hander Will

Johnston pitched the game of his life, but it
all would have been for naught if not for the
kamikaze base running of Mitch Martella.
The No. 4-seed Gators persevered in an 11inning pitching duel to score a 1-0 victory
over No. 13 Palma in Wednesdays opening
round of the Central Coast Section Division
II playoffs. Johnston pitched 10 of those
innings to take a no-decision, despite open-

ing the game with 7 2/3

no-hit frames.
Hes a great pitcher to
watch, SHP manager
Anthony Granato said.
Hes such a competitor.
He goes after guys.
Every time he goes out
there he gives us a chance
Mitch Martella to win. Thats really what
you want.
An inning after Johnston departed, SHP
(18-12) scored the walk-off win when

Michael York singled home Martella with

the winning run. But in a game of extraordinary pitching and defense, there was nothing ordinary about the decisive play.
Yorks sinking liner was almost caught on
a diving attempt by Palma right fielder Matt
Smith. With Martella midway between second and third, Smith initially looked to
glove the ball, causing Martella to start back
towards second. But when it became apparent Smith didnt make the catch as the ball
rolled away, Martella took off for third base.

Mills earns special win

Vikings win first CCS
game since 1990, are
first PAL Ocean team to
move to second round
By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

As the Mills softball team gathered for its

post-game meeting Wednesday, one of the
girls exclaimed, We have fans! The team
then came over near its dugout and thanked the
fans for showing their support.
The Vikings certainly put on a show.
Playing in only their second Central Coast
Section playoff game since 1999, Mills won
their first playoff game since 1990 and
became the first Peninsula Athletic League
Ocean Division champion to win a first-round
CCS softball game an 11-0, five-inning
win over visiting Pinewood.
Im excited, said Mills third baseman Lusi
Stanley, the only starting senior on the team.
Especially to be the first Ocean team to win a
CCS game.
The fourth-seeded Vikings will play No. 4
Notre Dame-Belmont (18-12) in a quarterfinal
game Saturday at a time and place to be determined. The Tigers crushed No. 13 Castilleja,
15-0 in their first-round game Wednesday.
Mills (19-4 overall) got off to a quick start,
scoring three runs in the bottom of the first.
After being retired in order in the second, the
Vikings exploded for eight runs on seven hits
and three Pinewood errors, as they sent 14 batters to the plate in the third inning.
That was more than enough offensive support for Mills starting pitcher Sara Cisneros,
who threw a complete-game, one-hitter while
striking out eight including seven of the
first nine batters she faced.
I felt OK. I was a little sick out there, said
Cisneros, adding shes been sick since the
beginning of the week.
My riseball was working. Usually I go to
the curve, but it wasnt working as well
today.

fielder who had seven outfield assists during

the regular season quickly gathered the
ball, causing third-base coach Granato to
give Martella the stop sign. The senior ran
right through it and looked to be dead to
rights until Smiths throw to the plate
clipped off the cutoff mans glove. The
throw still got to Palma catcher Danny
Carnazzo, but Martella had just enough time
to slide around the tag for the dramatic gamewinner.

ccording to a search in the Daily

Journals online archives, the
first story I ever wrote for this
newspaper had the headline of: Rugby
club continues to excel despite financial
struggles.
It was apparently written May 25,
2001. Ill have to take the Internets
word on it. I didnt save a copy and that
is way too long ago to remember clearly.
I dont even know what the story was
about. There was
only the first sentence of the story
online. The rest has
been lost to technology.
But the timing
sounds about right.
That same Internet
search points out my
name is mentioned
in the archive 4,267
times. Lets round
down to 4,200 (not all were articles I had
written. My name has been mentioned in
a number of Letters to the Editor, both
good and bad). That works out to about
323 stories written per year.
This week marks my 14th anniversary
with the San Mateo Daily Journal. It was
my first full-time writing gig after spending several years working full time at a
day job and moonlighting at night as a

Rugby, cricket, wrestling and squash.
Skateboarding and surfing. Ive been to

Currys daughter steals post-game interview

By Antonio Gonzalez
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

OAKLAND Stephen Curry

knows he may no longer be the
biggest star in his family. At least
for one day, that title belonged to
his 2-year-old daughter, Riley.
She stole the spotlight from the
Golden State Warriors guard and
NBA MVP during his news conference after Tuesday nights 110-106
victory over the Houston Rockets

in Game 1 of the Western

Conference finals.
Photos and videos of the moment
began to trend on social media as
fans let out a collective awwww.
But some on national television
talk shows and Twitter debated if she
was an unnecessary distraction as
Curry took reporters questions.
Curry didnt understand that, and
described it as a spur-of-the-moment
decision between dad and daughter.
I didnt know how she was going

to act because thats the first time

Ive ever brought her up there,
Curry said Wednesday, a practice day
for both teams. Once she started
laughing after the first question
when she heard my voice in the
microphone, I knew it was going to
be downhill from there.
Riley waved to the cameras and
interrupted Curry a couple of times
while sitting on his lap. At one
point, she muttered a few words and
Curry asked her to hold on a sec-

ond, OK? She replied, Be quiet,

drawing laughs from the room.
Later, Riley crawled under the
table, lifted up the skirt and waved to
reporters. Curry tried to grab her
from underneath the table before she
walked around the room.
Curry admitted he was a little
nervous as she began to take over
while he tried to keep his composure
and answer questions about his big
performance 34 points, six

Astros Keuchel shuts down As Giants shut out Dodgers again

By Kristie Rieken

By Janie McCauley

Astros 6, Athletics 1

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

HOUSTON Expectations were high for

the Oakland Athletics this year after three
straight postseason appearances.
But injuries and inconsistent play have
left the As with the worst record in the
major leagues at 14-28.
Evan Gattis hit a two-run homer to help
Dallas Keuchel win his eighth straight decision, and the Houston Astros kept rolling
with a 6-1 victory over the Athletics on
Wednesday.
The As have lost six of their past seven
and 12 of 14 games, falling to 14 games
under .500 for the rst time since nishing
the 2011 season 74-88.
Theres a lot of frustration that builds up
when we dont win and thats where we are as
a team right now, manager Bob Melvin
said. Were going to have to play our way
out of it.
Oakland is focused on staying positive
with about 75 percent of the season remaining.
The Astros improved to an American
League-best 27-14, giving them the best
start through 41 games in franchise history.
Sitting atop the AL West, this is the latest
the Astros have led their division since May
22, 2004.
Keuchel (6-0) allowed six hits and no
earned runs in seven innings to lower his
ERA to 1.67.
The game was tied in the sixth inning
when Gattis sent his soaring homer into left
eld to make it 3-1. George Springer, who
nished with two hits, singled with two
outs to set up the go-ahead shot by Gattis.
Oakland starter Jesse Hahn (1-3) allowed
three runs and ve hits in six innings for his
third consecutive loss.
Colby Rasmus drove in a run with a basesloaded sacrice y in the eighth and Chris
Carter tacked on a pair with a single to shallow center in that inning.

THE SAN MATEO COUNTY SPORTS HALL OF FAME

SAN FRANCISCO Buster Posey hit a

two-run homer in the seventh inning
through a thick mist hovering above the
field, Tim Lincecum won his third straight
decision, and the San Francisco Giants beat
the Los Angeles Dodgers 4-0 on Wednesday
night for their fifth straight victory.
Brandon Crawford had an RBI single
among his three hits and
Angel Pagan backed
Lincecum with his glove
by stealing an extra-base
hit from Yasmani Grandal
with a great catch at the
wall in center field in the
seventh. San Francisco
matched its season-high
Tim Lincecum winning streak and
pulled within 2 1/2
games of NL West-leading Los Angeles.
Lincecum (4-2) won a fourth straight
home start for the first time since July 4Aug. 1, 2009. He struck out four over seven
innings to pass Hall of Famer Carl Hubbell
for fourth place on the franchise all-time list
with 1,680 Ks.
Brett Anderson (2-2) struck out seven in 6
1-3 innings but received no support to lose
for the first time in five starts. The Dodgers
dropped to 0-5 at AT&T Park this season,
marking San Franciscos longest home winning streak in the rivalry in 12 years
since winning five straight from
April 10-June 24, 2003.
The Dodgers have scored only two runs in
39 innings and were shut out for the second
straight night. Los Angeles had its streak of
seven straight unbeaten series snapped.
Posey playing first base to give him a
break from catching duties greeted reliever Justin Turner by sending an 0-1 pitch into
the seats in left-center for his seventh home
run. He made a great catch over the railing in
front of the Dodgers dugout in the eighth,

SHP
Continued from page 11
Im a fast guy out there, and I just wanted
to end it, Martella said. It was too long of
a game.
With the win, the Gators advance to
Saturdays CCS Division II quarterfinals
where they will face No. 12 Burlingame. It
marks the second time in four years SHP has
eliminated Palma. The Gators scored an
upset as the No. 16 seed defeating top-seed
Palma in 2012.
Palma (14-14) did its best to return the
favor Wednesday, keeping the SHP offense
in check through 10 innings. Stellar as
Johnstons performance was, Palma righthander Cam Crone fired eight shutout
innings. Crone threw 131 pitches and
worked from the stretch in all but one inning

MILLS
Continued from page 11
first inning, sandwiched around Cisneros
second and third strikeouts, was the only hit
she allowed on the day to Pinewood, which
was making its first CCS appearance since
1998. Njissan wound up at third following
an error on the relay back to the infield, but
Cisneros stranded her there as she finished
striking out the side on the next batter.
That first inning was a statement (by
Cisneros), said Mills coach Dana
Ynostroza. Shes smart. She knows how to
work the count, work the hitters. She has a

as the Gators stranded 10 base runners.

And he was on cruise control, Palma
manager Johnny Ramirez said. He never
overthrew. I talked to him a few times, and he
was like, No coach, let me go.
Meanwhile, Johnston was the picture of
efficiency. He threw just 104 pitches
through 10 innings. In fact, Granato said if
not for a CCS rule limiting pitchers to 10
innings per week, he would have let
Johnston pitch the 11th inning.
My coach and I and my pitching coach
just work on hitting corners and keeping the
ball low, Johnston said. I was able to do
that today and just be efficient.
Johnston set down the first 15 batters of
the game before issuing a walk to Anthony
DeSantos to start the sixth. The southpaw
issued another walk in the seventh, but the
Gators middle infield turned a double play to
end the inning. Then with one out in the
eighth, Nico DeSantos attempted a drag bunt
up the first-base line that would have gone

for the Chieftains first hit if not for a nice

play by Johnston to chase it down and throw
him out. But Anthony DeSantos followed
with a clean single to left field to break up
the no-hitter.
As dazzling as Johnstons pitching performance was, the defense of third baseman
Andrew Daschbach nearly managed to
upstage his pitcher. It was Daschbachs first
game at the hot corner in nearly a month. He
last played the position April 25 in a nonleague victory over Woodside. But the junior
didnt miss a beat.
In the seventh inning, Daschbach ran
down a popup in foul territory to make a
catch while banging off the fence. In the
10th he made the play of the game with an
all-out dive to his left, gloving the ball
while he was completely airborne before
popping to his feet and gunning to first for
the out. Then in the 11th, he ranged left for a
backhand as he crossed into foul territory
and made a tremendous windmill-motion of a

throw to fire a strike to first.

Offense wins games, defense wins championships, Daschbach said. Thats something my dad has been preaching to me since
I was a young kid. You cant always rely on
your bat to produce. But you always have to
rely on your defense. I put a lot of work in,
field a lot of groundballs. It was nice to be
able to make a few plays today.
Daschbach was also quick on his feet to
get to the heart of the celebration in the middle of the infield after Yorks walk-off
knock. But he wasnt quite as quick as
Granato, as the first-year manager was the
first person to swarm York as the team converged.
Im excited for my guys, Granato said.
When youre in a game like that, its a nailbiter with two good teams battling against
each other, theyre giving it everything and
theyre playing their hearts out, thats exciting. Thats what you play for. So, Im excited for them.

big heart. She is just going to fight.

After that, the Mills offense took over
and it started with leadoff hitter Makana
Pember. The Vikings first baseman ran the
count full before fouling off five straight
pitches before drawing a walk.
[Pembers at-bat] set more than a tone. It
made a statement that were tough,
Ynostroza said. She came to play and
demonstrated that with that at-bat.
Pember would end up moving to second
on a wild pitch and, following a strikeout,
Cisneros drove in Pember with a single to
right. Stanley followed with a RBI single to
center and Gabriella Zucchiatti capped the
scoring with a RBI single to center as well
to put Mills up 3-0 after one.
Cisneros would finish the day going 3 for

3 from the plate, scoring twice and driving

in a pair of runs. Stanley was 2 for 3 with a
triple, two RBIs and two runs scored.
Zucchiatti reached base in all three of her atbats, raking a single and drawing two
walks.
Cisneros continued her strong start, striking out two more Pinewood batters in the
second inning and two more in the third.
In the bottom of the third, the Vikings
broke the game open. With one out,
Cisneros singled and scored on a Stanley
triple to right. She would score on a wild
pitch. Zucchiatti walked, stole second, went
to third on a wild pitch and scored on a Yoon
Lee single to center. Sandy Lawson followed with a bunt single, Jen Lee put down
a perfect sacrifice bunt and Caitlin Ung, the

Vikings No. 9 hitter, drove in a run with an

infield hit. Aubrie Businger later drove in a
run, as did Cisneros who had two hits in
the inning.
Mills proceeded to load the bases and were
looking for a knockout when Yoon Lee hit a
line drive to center that was caught for the
final out of the inning.
The only question left to be answered was
if the Panthers could extend the game past
the five-inning, 10-run mercy rule.
They could not as Cisneros, along with
some help from her defense, retired the final
13 batters she faced after giving up that
first-inning double.
I love being part of this team, Cisneros
said. Mills softball has always been like a
family.

Sports briefs
Warriors Curry fined $5,000
for flop in Game 1 vs Rockets
OAKLAND Golden State Warriors guard
Stephen Curry said he disagreed with the NBAs
decision to fine him $5,000 for violating the
leagues anti-flopping rules against the
Houston Rockets in Game 1 of the Western
Conference finals.
The league said Wednesday that the NBA
MVP exaggerated contact after his 3-pointer
with 3:07 remaining in the fourth quarter of the
Warriors 110-106 victory on Tuesday night.
Curry made the shot and fell to the court after
getting bumped by defender Terrence Jones.
The shot gave Golden State a 106-97 lead.
Curry said he has never personally been
warned about flopping and nobody with the
league spoke to him about the play before he
was informed of the fine.
Warriors coach Steve Kerr stuck up for his
star player, saying he was morally outraged
by the fine.

amazing individual performances, as well

help restore some sense of humanity in
this very often messed up world.
Ive covered one generation of athletes
on the Peninsula and am working through a
second. It blew my mind the first time I
realized that a kid I covered as a 9-10-yearold Little Leaguer was now the star of his
high school team.
People often ask me how I like my job. I
love it. I dont feel like Im trudging into
work, just watching the clock until I get to
leave. Ive had that job before. It wasnt
fun. My dad would periodically ask me if I
thought about finding another job, one
that paid more. And I always told him no.
Im a big proponent of the old adage: If you
love what you do, you wont work a single
day in your life. Money isnt everything
(but lets be real: it certainly does help,
especially here in the Bay Area).
I head up the stairs into the Daily Journal
office every day, wondering what the day
has in store for me. The best part of what
makes my job great is also one of its drawbacks: Starting with a blank page means it
has to get filled. Every day. Without fail.
There is no pushing it off until tomorrow.
No in and out box. I dont have to worry
about bringing work home with me, or
staying overtime to catch up. I dont
leave until the job is done or I know it will
get done and if it means staying until midnight, 1 a.m., so be it. Thats what the job
calls for.
I have been working on the Peninsula for
so long now, I know more about the inner
workings of the various police departments, city councils, school boards and

once she started going underneath the table,
Curry said. Im trying to answer questions to
feel around to make sure shes kind of within
arms reach. My family was in the family
room down the corner, and they were just
watching the whole thing dying laughing.
Curry said he decided to bring Riley with
him as he left the locker room and saw her and
his pregnant wife, Ayesha, on the way to the
news conference.
I said hello to them after the game and I told
them I had to do media so Ill be right back,
and I think (Ayesha) had asked Riley if she
wanted to go with me, Curry said. Riley had
told her yes before I even got around the corner, and Im like, No, Ill just go do it real
quick. And Riley gave me the look like, Im
going with you. She wasnt taking no for an
answer at that point.
Curry said his daughter enjoyed the spotlight, even though she played it cool.
When we got home, I asked her if she had
fun. She said no, so I guess she was keeping up

Everybody does it, so all of a sudden

just randomly to fine Steph just seems kind
of strange, he said. Are we just choosing
one time to do this? You can pick out flops
every single game from half the guys out
on the floor, so it just seems sort of random.

Raiders sign cornerback Chekwa

ALAMEDA The Oakland Raiders have
signed cornerback Chimdi Chekwa.
The team announced the move Wednesday to
bring back Chekwa following a brief stint in
New England.
Chekwa spent four seasons with the Raiders
from 2011-14. He played 32 games, recording
35 defensive tackles and six passes defensed.
Chekwa played 10 games for Oakland last season.
Chekwa signed with New England in March,
but was released on Monday.
Also Wednesday, the Raiders signed fifthround pick Ben Heeney. The linebacker had 127
tackles last season for Kansas and was selected
to the all-Big 12 team.

I know the Bay Area freeway system
almost like the back of my hand. I have
driven on as many as nine different freeways, interstates and connectors in one
day, criss-crossing the Bay Area for a
marathon Saturday of Central Coast
Section playoff games. I have traveled
from San Francisco to San Bernardino and
numerous stops between.
My car, which I bought in 2006, just
eclipsed the 274,000-mile mark and still
seems to be going strong.
Ive gone through some amazing life
changes during my time with the Daily
Journal as well, many of which I have
shared in this space over the years. My
wife and I bought a house, we had a child
(who is now 12 years old and finishing up
sixth-grade), my parents moved out of my
childhood home and eight months later,
my father passed away.
We are on our third dog, down to two cats
(from a high of three or four), but have
added a pair of guinea pigs (it was three
when we started down that road) and a
canary (courtesy of my in-laws). And my
aquarium hobby has morphed from one 29gallon, blue-and-yellow gravel hodgepodge of fish, to a pair of 90-gallon, habitat-specific tanks (South American and
African cichlids).
Wow. Fourteen years is a long time.
Weve weathered some storms as a newspaper, have seen colleagues come and go. But
I take immense pride in the fact that the
Daily Journal has become part of the fabric
of the community it serves. Its been my
pleasure to be part of the ride.

the act, he said.

Its hardly the first time an athlete has
brought their child to an on-camera interview.
In the NBA alone, there have been several
memorable moments, such as when Chris
Pauls son, also named Chris, tried to impersonate Blake Griffins facial expressions
while the Clippers duo sat together.
And its not like Curry was trying to shield
himself in a difficult moment. He had just rallied the Warriors from 16 points down for a
series-opening win.
Curry said hes unsure if hell bring Riley
back to a postgame news conference anytime
soon. But he said it was a fun moment and
reminded him of his days following around his

Its special for sure, Curry said. When
youre a kid, you go to school and all your
friends are asking you what its like.
...I didnt take it for granted even when I
was a kid. My dad did a good job of making
sure I kept it in my perspective of that its a

Muggsy Bogues and have him pick you up and
fly you around like an airplane, go talk to

How to garden with pets in mind

By Dean Fosdick
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Veterinarians are beginning to

preach the gospel of gardening primarily how organic fruits and vegetables can be used to improve the health
of family pets.
Everything from carrots to leafy
vegetables and fruit can be added to the
cat or dog dish. That saves money on
pet food, too.
Im seeing things like broccoli,
cucumbers, apples and pears showing
up in animal diets, said Dr. Eric
Patrin, owner of the South Whidbey
Animal
Clinic
in
Clinton,
Washington. Many pet owners are
using them as treats. Ten years ago, no
way dogs would be getting that.
The No. 1 nutritional problem for
pets today is that theyre eating way
too much, which leads to obesity, diabetes and arthritis, said Dr. Johnny
Clark, who operates the Blue
Mountain Animal Clinic in Luray,
Virginia.
You cant exercise your way off a
bad diet, Clark said. Go with smaller
portions. And try introducing green
beans. Theyre rich in fiber and dont
have any unnecessary calories. They
make a good filler and thats just the
ticket for animals needing to lose
weight.
Carrots, leafy greens, blueberries
and blackberries also are great pet food
additions and can be served up raw,
steamed or sautied. Peppermint, catnip
and rosemary are standard pet-garden
plants, although many mints
including catnip can be invasive
unless contained.
Beware introducing amaryllis, rhododendron, chrysanthemum, dieffenbachia and lilies to your property.

Dogs and cats are grazers, frequently nibbling on grass to soothe what ails them. The problem with that, however, is that many lawns are loaded
with herbicides and pesticides.
They are among the most toxic flora
known for canines and felines.
Dogs and cats are grazers, frequently

I always thought lawns were supposed to be a family refuge, said John
Harrison, sales and marketing manager
for the Espoma Co. , which makes
organic fertilizers for the retail lawn
and garden industry. You can grow
good lawns without using chemicals.
The company has a Safe Paws campaign that emphasizes natural gardening solutions.
Organic weed and insect control
extends well beyond lawns, he said.
Look at the totality of the garden or

landscape, Harrison said. There are a

number of situations that can be
changed to make yards more hospitable to pets.

Those include:
Keeping compost in closed containers. Garden wastes can make your
pets sick if eaten while decomposing.
Mowing grass frequently to keep
flea and tick numbers down.
Avoiding standing water that might
contain bacteria, parasites, worms and
mosquitoes.
Storing hazardous materials in a
safe place.
Washing your pets paws with water
after taking wintertime walks. Salt
from melted ice can sicken them when
ingested.

SCHOOL
Continued from page 1
in traditional school settings.
If we build something and invest $30
million, which is what the proposal was,
were talking about a facility for the next 30
years or more, and Im against that, said
Trustee Peter Hanley. The site hasnt
worked well for students.
A majority of the students who attend the
alternative school come from San Mateo
High School, about half of those enrolled at
the school are eligible for free or reduced
meal programs, many have a history of truancy, and the average grade point average is
roughly 1.4, according to a district report.
Hanley said, in light of the profile of
those who attend Peninsula, it does not
make sense to send them to a school far
away from the rest of the district.
The school location doesnt work well,
said Hanley. We need a different location
for that school than Crestmoor.
Hanley suggested officials look into
moving Peninsula on to the campus of San
Mateo High School, which would bring it
closer to the homes of most of the students
enrolled in the alternative high school.
Some members of San Mateo High School
community and law enforcement have
expressed concern in the past regarding
potentially sending students back to the

campus where many have struggled, and the

impact that might have on the culture of the
comprehensive school.
The San Mateo High School campus is
currently home to the comprehensive high
school, the districts adult education program, the district offices and the transportation department.
Realigning services on the San Mateo
High School campus, including some of the
adult education program classrooms, might
offer the district space necessary to house
Peninsula, said Hanley.
Larry Teshara, director of the adult school,
said he believed there is no room for another school on the campus as it is currently
constructed, but moving the transportation
services elsewhere might provide relief to
the cramped site.
I cant see [Peninsula] being here as the
property now exists, he said. Could it be
reconfigured? Sure.
Part of the recommendation from
McManus includes relocating the maintenance department from Crestmoor, and
moving it to the San Mateo High School
district campus with the transportation
department.
By having both vehicle maintenance and
transportation on that location provides
more synergy, she said.
Trustee Linda Lees Dwyer said she concurs
with much of McManus recommendation,
including keeping Peninsula on the
Crestmoor campus.

Lees Dwyer said she disagrees with those

who claim there are issues related to getting
students to the site.
I love our location now, she said.
Lees Dwyer advocated for the district to
act quickly in renovating the classrooms
and offices on Crestmoor, to give students
an opportunity to enjoy the modern learning opportunities that those enrolled in
other district schools enjoy as soon as possible.
Peninsula students are sitting up there,
they are not in the same quality of facilities
as the rest of students, she said. I think
its
wrong
to
wait.
The district has been mulling a solution for
Peninsula for years, and outgoing
Superintendent Scott Laurence said it was
his goal before the end of the school year to
resolve how best to manage its properties
and campuses.
Officials are currently engaged in negotiations for a piece of property on Mahler
Road in Burlingame, which could serve as
the future home of district offices.
But Lees Dwyer said the Crown Building,
located near the Bayshore on the east side of
Highway 101, is not an appropriate solution to the search for a new district office,
and instead favored renovating the current
office space.
She said spending money to address the
necessary renovations to the property in
Burlingame would be an inefficient use of
district funds.

The sub-par building on the other side of

the freeway ... if that goes away, Ill be
very, very happy, she said.
Putting the district office at the Mahler
site is expected to cost roughly $35 million, nearly $10 million more than what it
is projected to cost renovating the current
location, according to a district report.
McManus said considering the landscape
of the commercial real estate market in San
Mateo County, the district does not have the
resources to purchase one piece of property
that will address the needs to serve all its
various programs.
This has been a very difficult topic
because the goal was to house everything at
one location for synergy, productivity and
efficiency, she said. Weve tried very hard
to make this happen, but its almost impossible doing this in a built-out area.
Hanley echoed those sentiments, and said
it was important for officials and residents
to consider how to channel district
resources and spend money in the best interest of students.
It requires a lot of dialogue, and a lot of
thought, said Hanley. But it also requires
the community to really think about how do
we best serve students who need help, and
that we want to provide the best possible
educational outcomes for.
The San Mateo Union High School
District Board of Trustees will meet 7 p.m.
Thursday, May 21, at 789 E. Poplar Ave. in
San Mateo.

mer Redevelopment Agency purchased in

2007 for about $630,000.
Although identified as a historic resource
by the Downtown Precise Plan, the home on
Wilson Street wasnt historic enough to
keep it in place.
Built in the early 1900s, the 1, 600square-foot home will now be moved to
Heller Street at a cost of
$84, 180 with Monday
nights
City
Council
approval.
Total cost to move the
home could reach up to
$300,000.
It had been for sale for $1
on the condition the purchaser move the home but no
interested buyer was able to
secure it, according to a staff
report
by
Community
Development Director Aaron
Aknin.
Moving
the
home
achieves two objectives,

said Councilman Ian Bain, including preserving the historic resource and creating
another unit of affordable housing in the
city.
This was a creative solution that meets
our needs, Bain said.
Bain had proposed that the city purchase
the home to spare it from development back
in October.
Preserving and moving the home will
keep one more family in our community,
he said.
There are not many homes left in
Redwood City that can be considered a historic resource, he said.
These homes are disappearing one at a
time, Bain said.
Some of the homes have been lost
because the homeowners took remodels
too far, he said.
The property on Heller Street was purchased by the city to alleviate years of
blight and criminal and known gang activity (including stabbings and murder), Aknin
wrote in the report.

Aknin also warns in the report that the

approval of this contract does not necessarily mean that the home will be moved to the
proposed location, as city staff will need to
further investigate other potential costs to
determine whether the project is feasible.
Both the Wilson Street home and Heller
Street property have been vacant for years.
The council awarded the contract to move
the home, construct a new foundation on the
Heller Street property, attach the home to
the foundation and hook up the utilities.
The city intends to partner with a nonprofit to improve it and turn it into a affordable housing unit, according to Aknins
report. The city will also likely partner with
a nonprofit to manage it.
The house, which is in need of repairs, is
considered historic but not significant
enough that it warrants special protection
by the city.

Backyard sheds reimagined as pubs, studios, getaways

By Melissa Kossler Dutton
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

When Morgaine Ford-Workman and Wren

Workman bought a house with a backyard
shed, they saw the potential for something
more than storing garden tools.
The couple transformed the 10-by-12foot building into a bar to use during outdoor parties at their house in Morrisville,
Pennsylvania.
Were involved in community theatre
and we like to throw a lot of parties, FordWorkman said. Its an extra place to hang
out.
People looking to get more use out of
their backyards are building or converting
sheds for a variety of purposes. There are
backyard pubs. She sheds, when theyre
built by women. Home offices. Art or yoga
studios. TV rooms.
As we continue to explore other ways we
can utilize our backyard space, we will continue to see trends like this, said Stacy
Nelson, who owns a backyard-design consulting firm, Backyard Mamma, in Weston,
West Virginia. We want to be in nature and
unwind.
The do-it-yourself element and the sheds
visual impact have made them popular on
social media sites, Nelson said.
Its gaining in popularity. Its all over
the board what people are using them for,
she said.
The sheds range from stylized structures
with sliding glass doors to buildings made
from repurposed materials.
Ford-Workman and her husband spent
about $300 fixing up their structure, which
friends have dubbed Barshed. They fur-

nished it with cast-off furniture from
friends.
Our Barshed is nothing to put in a homedesign magazine by any stretch of the imagination, but all our friends rave about its

existence, she said.

Studio Shed in Louisville, Colorado, sells
prefabricated structures to people who want
more living space or to enhance their backyard, said Jeremy Horgan-Kobelski, the

companys creative director. The buildings,

which range in price from $7, 500 to
$20, 000, offer flexibility and are less
expensive than adding a room to the house,
he said.
Jennifer and Eric Antonow added a shed to
their Palo Alto, California, property
because they cant afford a bigger house.
It made so much economic sense, she
said.
They use their shed as a home office and
recording studio. It sits next to their hot
tub, so sometimes they use it as a changing
room. She also anticipates serving drinks
there while entertaining outside.
The Antonows needed a permit to install
the shed, which rests on a concrete slab.
City and county rules vary, so check with
the local zoning department before adding a
structure, said Jim Ayers, a contributor to
hometalk.com, an online home and garden
forum for do-it-yourselfers.
He did not need a permit to build the gardening shed that he later converted into a
tiki bar at his Nashville, Tennessee, home.
The building, which sits on concrete
blocks, is not a permanent structure, he
said.
He transformed the shed into a party spot
at the urging of his wife, Monika. It didnt
take much for me to go her way, he said.
He estimates he spent about $500 on the
project. He already had some of the lumber.
Many of the items are repurposed.
The Ayers spend a lot of time in their
backyard, and love to invite friends.
If were not at somebody elses place or
away on a trip, were out there, he said.
My wife loves it. In her younger years, she
was a bartender.

WHALE
Continued from page 1
help of the National Marine Fisheries
Service.
The 38-foot gray whale washed
ashore Tuesday just as crews in Pacifica
were burying two others that stranded
there in April and May. A 48-foot sperm
whale was discovered April 14 near
Mori Point and a 42-foot adult female
humpback was found May 5.
Researchers were unable to conduct a
necropsy of the gray whale in Half
Moon Bay as it was shifting in the surf,
but took photos of its markings to
determine whether the whale has been
documented in the past, said Haley
Bowling, spokeswoman with the
California Academy of Sciences.
Scientists determined Pacificas
sperm whale was somewhat emaciated
and the humpback whale had trauma that
may have been caused by a ship strike,
although researchers are awaiting lab
results for confirmation, said Justin
Viezbicke,
California
stranding
response coordinator with the National
Marine Fisheries Services.
While the number of whales washed
ashore during an unusually short period
of time, wildlife officials believe
theres a natural explanation.
We know that we have a number of
animals that die off the coast yearly. We
have a large population of whales that
live off the coast here and each one
weve looked at had different things
going on, Viezbicke said. What I
think is playing into it right now, is
the winds and the current are pushing
them to shore.
Officials from the Marine Mammal
Center, which have also responded to
help conduct necropsies, agreed the
time of year is likely playing a part.
Its migration season for humpbacks
and gray whales, so this is actually not
unusual at all. We do usually see spikes
in strandings in the spring months
April, May and June. So there is [no]
sudden increase. The only difference
this year is that the strandings have all
been on public beaches in highly populated areas, so theyre receiving more
attention, Marine Mammal Center

park with 155, 000 square feet of
offices in five two-story buildings.
The Wellness Center will consist of
three buildings with 57 bedrooms to
accommodate both residents and about
20 staff members.
The project intends to provide
employment to residents who will
maintain the office park grounds and
work in a delicatessen on site.

spokeswoman Laura Sherr wrote in an

email.
Although wildlife officials prefer to
let nature take its course and, when possible, have the whales decompose
where they land, disposal efforts are
underway due to the recent whales close
proximity to residences and popular
beaches.
Ideally we like to leave the animal
on the beach because its a natural
process thats been going on a long
time, Viezbicke said. The challenge
that we have is a lot of times people
dont like it because of the byproducts
of the smell.
The three standard disposal options
are to drag it out to sea where its either
left or sunk, bury it near where it lands
or dump it in a landfill, assuming
theres one close by, Viezbicke said.
Half Moon Bay is likely to contribute
at least $10,000 toward the National
Fisheries Services efforts to tow the
gray whale out to sea, said Assistant
City Manager Alex Khojikian.
To ensure the carcass doesnt make its
way back to shore, the Fisheries
Service will analyze wind, tide and current conditions, Khojikian said.
Crews finalized burying the two
Pacifica whales Wednesday afternoon
into five holes approximately 12 to 15
feet deep, said Connie Chan, spokeswoman for the San Francisco Parks and
Recreation Department, which has
jurisdiction over the beach. The agencies split the approximately $40,000 it
cost to bury the whales, Chan said.
Although the San Francisco Parks
and Recreation Department preferred to
let the whales decompose naturally,
officials worked with Pacifica officials
to bury them, said Pacifica police Capt.
Dan Steidle.
Due to the horrific smell, it became a
quality of life issue for some of our residents, Steidle said.
Scientists believe it seems to be a
freak accident that the two whales
washed ashore in such close proximity
and the city opted to bury both, as the
first one was too decomposed to drag
out to sea, Steidle said.
Yet some worry the recent landings
could be a signal that previous efforts
undertaken by the shipping industry
and wildlife experts are losing effectiveness under a changing climate.

Due to the unusually warm winter

brought on by the drought, the ocean
conditions and whale migration patterns may have changed, said marine
biologist Nicole David, a San Mateo
County Harbor District Commissioner
who works with the San Francisco
Estuary Institute.
After the U.S. Coast Guard published
a report entitled Port Access Route
Study: Off San Francisco, the shipping
industry and environmentalists worked
out new routes to help avoid collisions
in 2013.
If whales migration patterns are
changing due to the climate, the altered
shipping paths may not be helping as
much, David said.
Scientists, conservationists, policy
makers and the shipping industry have
actually worked together in the past to
minimize the intersection of whales
and ship traffic. The shipping lanes
were moved and redesigned two years
ago in an attempt to avoid the collision
with whales, David wrote in an email.
I think one problem is enforcement of
shipping lanes but also that warming
oceans and different patterns of colder
upwelling will make the whales alter
their usual routes.
Bowling said its important to have
an extensive network of scientists who
respond to landings and conduct
necropsies, critical to informing future
policies.
When it comes to human impacts,
ship strikes are a leading cause of mortality along with entanglement in fishing gear. In California, ship strikes of
gray whales are the most commonly
reported. Many ships are unaware when
a strike has occurred. So ship strikes
can be really underreported unless the
whale beaches and were able to determine a cause of death, Bowling said.
But with the varied species and causes
of deaths among the handful of whales
that have washed ashore along the
countys coast recently, its likely natural causes to blame.
Animals die at sea for a variety of
reasons. Theyre subject to the currents
and weather. This season we are seeing
a lot but, in terms of frequency, its not
uncommon, Bowling said. They all
had different likely causes of death so
were really seeing that its more coincidental.

The project also consists of 554 private parking spaces on the north parcel and boat storage and 92 coastal
access public parking spaces on the
south parcel.
Some wetlands will also be restored
as part of the project, Horsley said.
Its a good compromise from the
original proposal, he said.
The county lacks facilities for adults
with developmental disabilities and
the office park is helping to subsidize
the housing component of the project,
Horsley said.
The lack of housing and jobs for
adults with developmental disabilities

in the county is a real crucial problem, Peck said.

Big Wave is just a small step toward
providing housing and jobs for the
12,500 people in the county who are
disabled, Peck said.
The offices could also provide some
traffic relief to the coast if more people
are able to work closer to where they
live, Horsley said.
The project also includes a path for
bicyclists and pedestrians along
Airport Street to Highway 1.
The Board of Supervisors unanimously approved the project at its
Tuesday meeting.

ANSWERS

THURSDAY, MAY 21, 2015

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Communicating
with a distant friend or relative will remind you of
your earlier goals. Revisit those ideas and start
researching ways to get yourself back on track.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) It may be attering
to be the object of attention, but a charismatic con
artist may be leading you on. Rumors and gossip can
fuel resentment and jealousy.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Proceed slowly and
carefully. You are likely to miss an important detail
or opportunity if you are in too much of a hurry.
Double-check your work to ensure accuracy.

WEDNESDAYS PUZZLE SOLVED

Each row and each column must contain the

numbers 1 through 6 without repeating.
The numbers within the heavily outlined boxes,
called cages, must combine using the given operation
(in any order) to produce the target numbers in the
top-left corners.
Freebies: Fill in single-box cages with the number in
the top-left corner.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Dont let the

negativity of others prevent you from getting where
you want to go. You will stifle opposition if you
move ahead with determination. Your success will
be proof that you are right.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) Make plans for a
solitary day. Trying to get along with others or
convincing them to follow your lead will be dif cult.
You can get more done on your own.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) You can make great
progress by staying focused. Dont get caught up in
what others are saying or doing. If you stick to your
game plan, you will come out on top.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) The benefits
of assisting others will be satisfying. Your

generous spirit will inspire others, and your

popularity will grow. You will gain the attention of
an important mentor.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Someone will try
to set you up for a fall. Be honest and own up to
any error you make. Blaming others will make you
seem untrustworthy.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) Romance is in the
air. If you are single, this is the perfect time to meet
someone special. If you are not, show how devoted
you are to your loved one.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) You have control
over your future. Educate yourself and make social
and business connections that will give you an edge
over the competition. Take charge and excel.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) Limit your

spending. Pay down any charges that are
incurring interest. Your hard work will be wasted
if you cant stick to a realistic budget. Excess and
indulgence are your enemies.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) An entertaining day
with family and friends will cheer you up. A game
or challenge will shake up your usual routine and
provide you with a pleasant and humorous diversion.
