Student concussions in focus

San Mateo County Civil Grand Jury asks how schools addressing athlete head trauma
By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

A report by the American

Academy of Pediatrics released in
early June reports concussions
have risen 200 percent among
teens aged 14 to 19 in the last
decade.
Other reports indicate one in
five high school athletes will sustain a concussion.

With questions being raised

about the safety of sports, how
have San Mateo County public
high schools fared in addressing
the issue of safety and head trauma?
According to a report from the
San Mateo County Civil Grand
Jury released June 29, schools
comprising the Peninsula Athletic
League are well aware of the dangers and are doing a relatively

good job of diagnosing and treating head injuries.

Our district was out in front of
it, said Steve Sell, Aragons
longtime football coach and athletic director.
The San Mateo Union High
School District has been the most
proactive in protecting studentathletes at their member schools,
having instituted districtwide preand post-injury neurocognitive

testing, as well as the hiring of

full-time certified athletic trainers
two of the recommendations
the grand jury concluded all districts should strive to reach.
The grand jurys third recommendation is each district establish a database of all head injuries.
That information would then be
turned over to the Peninsula
Athletic League for analysis.
SMUHSD utilizes the Immediate

Postconcussion Assessment and

Cognitive Thinking (ImPACT)
test to establish a baseline of all
athletes at the beginning of the
high school season. Following
any kind of head injuries, athletes
re-take the test and have the
results judged against the baseline
test. Until the athlete can equal or
surpass their baseline score, they

Officials laud new strict

student vaccination law
Opponents are saying
mandate is evidence of
government overreach
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

One of the nations strictest laws requiring children to be vaccinated before

enrolling in school, recently signed by
Gov. Jerry Brown, has drawn mixed reviews
from those on opposing sides of the contentious political issue.
Brown signed into law Senate Bill 277,
which requires almost all students in
California to be fully vaccinated prior to
enrolling in public or private school,
Wednesday, June 30.
Local health care and education officials
praised the new law, saying it enhances the
safety of children enrolled in San Mateo
County schools.
County Superintendent Anne Campbell,
in a prepared statement, expressed her support for the vaccination requirement.
Immunizations play a vital role in protecting our childrens health, she said. I
encourage all parents to ensure their childrens immunizations are up to date.
Christina Hildebrand, founder of A Voice
For Choice, which rallies support for the
right of parents to choose whether vaccination is correct for their children, expressed
her opposition of the legislation.
This bill is too much, too soon, she
said. It is government overreach.
Many fears regarding the potential health
hazards of vaccines, such as immunizations
potentially causing autism, are unfounded,
according to the statement from the San

Mateo County Office of Education.

As with all medicines, there are risks of
serious side effects, but those risks are
small compared to the benefits of being
vaccinated, according to the statement.
Robyn Thaw, spokeswoman for the San
Mateo County Health System, echoed those
sentiments in an email.
Its important that the decisions families
make about their childrens health and wellbeing, also include not endangering other
children, she said. Every effort made to
increase immunization against vaccine-preventable diseases, increases protection for
all children, including those who are too
young or too sick to get vaccinated.
Under the new law, beginning July 1,
2016, children without a valid medical
exemption must have all recommended
shots or they will not be able to enter
kindergarten.
Students who are not vaccinated must
enroll in home school or independent study.
Those with existing exemptions will be
allowed to continue in school until their
next vaccines check, which takes place in
kindergarten, seventh-grade and any time a
student changes school, according to a
report from the county Office of Education.
San Mateo County boasts a vaccination
rate higher than the state average, or many
neighboring counties, as 98 percent of
local children are immunized, according to
Thaw. But should the vaccination rate drop,
the chances that diseases might be spread
would increase, she said.
The support for the vaccination requirement spreads beyond county borders, as
state officials have also lauded Browns
decision.
State Superintendent Tom Torlakson celebrated the new law, in a prepared statement.

The bill protects the health of our children and our communities, he said. It will
help keep students healthy so they can
attend school, learn and succeed.
Such sentiment is not universal though,
as some locals who advocate for the choice
of parents to vaccinate their children are
upset by the reach of the law.
Hildebrand, a Palo Alto resident, said she
was disappointed Brown did not give credence to the beliefs of those who oppose
the law.
We wanted him to at least take both sides
into consideration, she said.
Support for the bill was driven by those
in the medical field, such as pharmaceutical
and insurance companies, which stand to
benefit from mandating increased amounts
of immunization, she said.
It is financially driven, she said.
But despite Browns decision to sign the
law, Hildebrand felt her group, which is
based in Mountain View, was successful in
contributing to what became a national
debate.
I feel like there was some success, she
said. This bill awoke an arising that is not
going away.
Once the law goes into effect, California
will join Mississippi and West Virginia as
the only states with such strict requirements.

Water rates rise as cities lose money in drought

By Fenit Nirappil
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ROSEVILLE Saving water

doesnt always mean saving
money in parched California.
Millions
of
Californians
expecting relief on their water
bills for taking conservation
measures instead are finding higher rates and drought surcharges.
Water departments are increasing rates and adding fees because
theyre losing money as their customers conserve. They say they
still have to pay for fixed costs
including repairing pipelines,
customer service and enforcing
water restrictions and those
costs arent decreasing.
The financial blow is only
expected to grow because Gov.
Jerry Browns administration has
ordered communities to slash their

water use anywhere between 8 and

36 percent compared to 2013 levels in response to the four-year
drought. Those cuts are expected
to leave agencies with a $1 billion
hole in revenue, and theyll likely
turn to customers to plug it,
according to state estimates.
Just because you use less water
does not mean you have lower
rates or a lower bill, said Lori
Dolqueist, a water attorney who
represents private utilities. All
of these agencies and private water
companies are being told to sell
less of what they do. Its a challenge financially.
While intensive conservation
reduces strains on local water supplies, it can spell trouble for government budgets.
Santa Barbara, for example,
expects to lose $5 million if residents hit the citys 20 percent

water use reduction target.

Residents are going above and
beyond and reached 37 percent in
May. Thats good for water supply
but bad for financial stability.
This month, water bills in Santa
Barbara rose between $13 and
$120, depending on water use, to
help the city recover lost revenue
and activate a desalination plant.
Our folks are coming in and
saying Hey, Im doing everything right, why do I need to pay
more? said Joshua Haggmark, the
citys water resources manager.
Its not clear precisely how
widespread drought-related rate
increases are because no government agency or association tracks
them.
But agencies across California
are reporting theyve taken steps
to tap customers to offset the losses of conservation. Residents in

the San Francisco Bay Area, for

example, are seeing higher bills
after the regions largest water
wholesaler increased the price of
water 28 percent to make up for
lagging sales.
Others are opting for a clearly
labeled temporary drought fee,
including the Sacramento suburb
of Roseville which raised $1 million in the last year with a 15 percent surcharge on water use.
That surcharge, plus the relatively low price of water, left
some residents disappointed by
their bills after buying low-flow
toilets and tearing out their lawns.
Travis Wills, 42, is still paying
about $30 a month even after
ditching a grassy front lawn for
black mulch with sego palms, jasmine and Agapanthus flowers and
collecting water from his shower
and sink in buckets for plants in

his backyard.
We havent noticed much of a
difference on the bill, said Wills,
who runs a home staging company. Thats troubling because they
want us to reduce water.
Roseville could double its surcharge if the dry spell deepens,
which Wills says he wouldnt
mind too much.
Maybe if they do that, people
will stop wasting so much.
Dwindling water supplies during
the drought have also driven up
bills as agencies turn to more
expensive resources. The East Bay
Municipal Utility District, serving 1.3 million customers east of
San Francisco, is charging the
average household an extra $12 a
month to pay for tapping water
dozens of miles away near
Sacramento and conservation programs.

Highlights: Californians
paying more for water
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SACRAMENTO Some California residents are finding

themselves in an ironic bind where they have to pay more
while using less water in the drought. Thats because water
agencies are losing revenue under strict conservation
regimes, but still have to pay for staff, maintaining
pipelines and other fixed costs.
LOS ANGELES
The city has had higher water shortage rates since 2009,
although they are designed so residents meeting conservation goals still save money. The Los Angeles Department
of Water and Power says its offsetting revenue losses by
refinancing bonds at lower rates and watching spending,
but it has the power to increase rates to recover money.
EAST BAY MUNICIPAL WATER DISTRICT
The agency serving 1.3 million customers east of San
Francisco has implemented a drought surcharge of up to 25
percent of water bills on top of rate increases. The surcharge
partially makes up for less revenue but is primarily for tapping a more expensive water supply.
SANTA BARBARA
The coastal community made headlines for hiking rates to
activate a dormant desalination plant, but the increase also
helps offset the costs of the citys 20 percent conservation
mandate. Residents are on track to exceed that goal and
potentially drain millions more from the water departments budget.
SAN FRANCISCO
Residents in the water-frugal city arent paying more for
conservation because the city is tapping reserves and cutting costs. But some surrounding communities that buy
water from the city are looking at increasing rates after the
San Francisco Public Utilities Commission increased the
wholesale price of water by nearly a third.
DUBLIN-SAN RAMON SERVICE DISTRICT
The agency east of San Francisco lost access to government reservoir water, but its tiered water rates increase during drought emergencies in a way designed to keep money
coming in at steady levels.

Man needs rescue after canoe
capsizes near Oyster Point
The Coast Guard Sector San Francisco, along with members of the San Mateo and Alameda counties sheriffs
departments, rescued a man from the ocean Friday, after the
canoe he was in capsized.
At 4:34 p.m., Coast Guard officials received a report of a
person who went missing just three miles south of Oyster
Point, according to the Coast Guard.
The man was in a group of twelve people who were canoeing around the area, Coast Guard officials said.
Coordinating with Alameda and San Mateo Counties
Marine Units, a Coast Guard boat crew was able to locate the
man and rescue him from the water, Coast Guard officials
said.
The victim was not wearing a lifejacket, according to
Coast Guard officials.
The man had no signs of injury and he was taken back to
Oyster Point, according to the Coast Guard.
The Coast guard is advising people who boat or engage in
water sports to always wear life jackets.
Life jackets greatly increase the chance of survival during maritime accidents which can occur suddenly and without warning, Cmdr. Matthew Thompson said in a statement.

Slain womans parents focused on healing

By Olga R. Rodriguez
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO The parents of a woman killed at a San

Francisco pier say they are focused
on healing and not on the fact that
the man accused of shooting her
has been deported five times.
Kathryn Steinles father, Jim
Steinle, told reporters he hopes
justice reigns in the case against
Francisco Sanchez, 45.
Were not dwelling on that, he
said Friday, referring to the fact
that Sanchez could have been
deported months ago. Thats not
going to bring Kate back.
Kathryn Steinle was shot
Wednesday evening as she walked
with her father and a family friend
at Pier 14, one of the busiest
attractions in the city.

Police arrested
Sanchez
about an hour
after the seemingly random
slaying of the
32-year-old San
Francisco resident.
Kathryn Steinle Sanchez has
seven felony
convictions and has been deported
five times to his native Mexico,
most recently in 2009, federal
officials said.
Steinles mother, Liz Sullivan,
called her daughters death a terrible travesty.
It would have been so much
better, of course, if he (had been
deported),
Sullivan
told
reporters. Everybody is trying to
put the political spin on it. But it

happened, and there is no taking it

back.
U.S. Immigration and Customs
Enforcement (ICE) had turned
Sanchez over to authorities in San
Francisco on March 26 on an outstanding drug warrant.
The
Sheriffs
Department
released Sanchez on April 15 after
the San Francisco district attorneys office declined to prosecute
him for what authorities said was a
decade-old marijuana possession
case.
ICE spokeswoman Virginia Kice
said the agency had issued a
detainer for Sanchez, requesting
notification of his release and that
he stay in custody until immigration authorities could pick him up.
The detainer was not honored, she
said.
Freya Horne, counsel for the San

Francisco Sheriffs Department,

said Friday that federal detention
requests are not sufficient to hold
someone. Under the citys sanctuary ordinance, people in the country illegally arent handed over to
immigration officials unless
theres a warrant for their arrest.
Local officials checked and
found none. ICE could have issued
an active warrant if it wanted the
city to keep Sanchez jailed, Horne
said.
On Saturday, a bouquet of sunflowers and another of red roses
laid at a gate blocking access to
Pier 14, a popular place for people
who want to get a close-up view of
the San Francisco-Oakland Bay
Bridge. Tourists, most unaware of
the shooting, sat on nearby
benches and on an art installation
platform, soaking up the sun

while others in U.S. flag T-shirts

and hats walked by.
San Francisco resident Manuel
Gabriel, 50, was taking a stroll
with a friend when the pair
stopped to look at the pier after
hearing what happened on the
news. Its sad to hear someone so
young lost their life in an act of
insanity, said Gabriel, who said
he came to San Francisco from El
Salvador 25 years ago.
About the controversy surrounding the citys sanctuary ordinance,
Gabriel said its not a question of
documents but of mental health.
U.S. citizens also kill people,
Gabriel said. The issue shouldnt
be whether or not he has documents.
The question is why authorities
would release someone who is not
well mentally.

About 125 people left their homes in voluntary evacuations. Several homes were

A crew of at least 130 firefighters worked

Methlymercury limits set by the
EPA for safe eating are 0.3 milligram per kilogram. Data from
the 2007 state tests reveal bass

more than double the limit.
By comparison, testing of
rainbow trout from 2002 and
2006 shows safe levels between
0. 1 and 0. 2 milligram per kilogram. Brown trout, a commonly
eaten predatory fish typically
higher in mercury than rainbow

Runoff from sites once active

source of mercury in the lake. Gold
mining requires mercury, and there
are many shuttered mines around
the lake.
The widespread practice of gold
panning is most to blame for leftover mercury in streams that feed
into lake, said Jay Thompson of
the Shasta Historical Society.

Congress facing busy agenda, funding deadline

By Erica Werner
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Members of
Congress return from July Fourth
fireworks and parades Tuesday facing a daunting summer workload
and an impending deadline to fund
the government or risk a shutdown
in the fall.
The funding fight is shaping up
as a major partisan brawl against
the backdrop of an intensifying
campaign
season,
with
Republicans eager to avoid another Capitol Hill mess as they struggle to hang onto control of
Congress and take back the White
House next year. Already they are
deep into the blame game with
Democrats over who would be
responsible if a shutdown does
happen, with House Speaker John
Boehner denouncing Democrats
dangerously misguided strategy
and House Democratic leader
Nancy Pelosi accusing Boehner
and his Republicans of pursuing
manufactured crises.
The funding deadline does not
even arrive until Sept. 30, but lawmakers face more immediate tests,
too. Near the top of the list is
renewing highway funding before
the government loses authority
July 31 to send much-needed transportation money to the states
right in the middle of summer driving season.

Legislative maneuvering over

the highway bill may also create
an opening to renew the disputed
federal Export-Import Bank,
which makes and underwrites
loans to help foreign companies
buy U. S. products. The banks
charter expired June 30 due to congressional inaction, a defeat for
business and a victory for conservative activists who turned
killing the obscure agency into an
anti-government cause celebre.
Depending on the progress of
the Obama administrations
nuclear negotiations with Iran,
lawmakers could face debate on
that
issue,
too.
Leading
Republicans have made clear that
they are prepared to reject any deal
the administration comes up with.
Sen. Bob Corker, chairman of
the Foreign Relations Committee,
said Sunday, Well, we have gone
from dismantling their program to
managing proliferation. Thats
the biggest concern. Thats
already done.
Corker, R-Tenn., said on CBSs
Face the Nation that he has told
Secretary of State John Kerry,
Look, you create just as much of
a legacy walking away from a bad
deal as you do headlong rushing
into bad deal.
On a less partisan note, the
Senate opens its legislative session this week with consideration
of a major bipartisan education

overhaul bill
that rewrites
the
muchmaligned No
Child
Left
Behind law by
s h i f t i n g
responsibility
from the federal
Barack Obama government to
the states for
public school standards.
Were seven years overdue for
a rewrite, said Sen. Lamar
Alexander, R-Tenn, the bills chief
sponsor.
The House also is moving forward with its own, Republicanwritten education overhaul bill,
revived after leadership had to pull
it earlier this year when conservatives revolted.

Cybersecurity legislation
Even if both bills pass, though,
its uncertain whether Congress
will be able to agree on a combined version to send to President
Barack Obama. Indeed the
prospects for any major legislative accomplishments arriving on
Obamas desk in the remainder of
the year look slim, though theres
talk of the Senate following the
House and moving forward on
cybersecurity legislation.
That means that even though
Obama was so buoyed when

Congress sent him a major trade

bill last month that he declared
This is so much fun, we should do
it again, he may not get his wish.
But all issues are likely to be
overshadowed by the government
funding fight and suspense over
how or if a shutdown can be
avoided.
Democrats are pledging to
oppose the annual spending bills
to fund government agencies
unless Republicans sit down with
them to negotiate higher spending levels for domestic agencies.
Republicans, who want more
spending for the military but not
domestic agencies, have so far
refused. If theres no resolution by
Sept. 30, the government will
enter a partial shutdown.
Its an outcome all involved say
they want to avoid. Yet Democrats
who watched Republicans pay a
steep political price for forcing a
partial shutdown over Obamas
health care law in 2013 and
come within hours of partially
shutting down the Department of
Homeland Security this year
claim confidence they have the
upper hand in forcing negotiations.
Given that a Democratic president needs to sign anything and
you need Democratic votes in both
chambers, the writing is on the
wall here, said Pelosi spokesman
Drew Hammill.

Republicans insist Democrats

are running a risk by opposing
spending bills for priorities like
troop funding but are not yet
discussing how they will proceed
if Democrats dont back down.
As a result it looks likely current funding levels could be temporarily extended beyond Sept. 30
to allow more time to negotiate a
solution.

Fall deadline
And thats not the only consequential deadline this fall. The
governments borrowing limit
will also need to be raised sometime before the end of the year,
another issue thats ripe for
brinkmanship. Some popular
expiring tax breaks will need to be
extended, and the Federal Aviation
Administration must be renewed.
An industry-friendly FAA bill was
delayed in the House recently
although aides said that was unrelated to the Justice Departments
newly disclosed investigation of
airline pricing.
In the meantime, the presence of
several presidential candidates in
the Senate make action in that
chamber unpredictable, Congress
will be out for another recess during the month of August and in
September Pope Francis will visit
Capitol Hill for a first-ever papal
address to Congress.

Haley says church shooting will forever change her outlook

By Seanna Adcox
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

COLUMBIA, S.C. For five

years, Gov. Nikki Haley, South
Carolinas first minority governor, dismissed calls to remove the
Confederate battle flag from the
Statehouse lawn as a divisive issue
far from her agenda.
In her 2010 campaign, she said

Nikki Haley

the two-thirds
legislative
ap p ro v al
required
to
move the flag
from its 30foot perch was
too high a hurdle to allow for
real
debate.
When her re-

election opponent called last fall

for it to be removed, she branded it
a desperate stunt.
None of that mattered, she said,
after nine people were killed last
month at a black church in
Charleston, including its pastor,
State Sen. Clementa Pinckney, in
a crime she called pure hate.
When Haley arrived at the church,
she found strangers hugging and

weeping, and the grief was overwhelming.

At the June 19 bond hearing for
suspected shooter Dylann Roof,
the victims families offered him
forgiveness. That night, Haley
said, she made a decision.
That flag needed to come
down, she told The Associated
Press in an emotional interview
Wednesday. I could not look my

kids in the face and justify that

flag anymore.
The surfacing of a website showing Roof holding Confederate
flags alongside a racist manifesto
deepened her resolve, she said.
I could not have been more disgusted, she said. The flag didnt
kill those families, but lets honor

US-led coalition unleashes

wave of airstrikes on Raqqa
By Zeina Karam
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BEIRUT U. S. -led coalition aircraft

unleashed a wave of airstrikes targeting the
Islamic State groups stronghold of Raqqa
in eastern Syria in what the coalition said
Sunday was one of its most sustained aerial
operations carried out in Syria to date.
IS said at least 10 people were killed and
many others wounded in the attacks which
activists said triggered successive explosions that shook the city and created panic
among residents. The U.S.-led coalition
often targets IS-held towns and cities in
Syria, but the overnight strikes on Raqqa
were rare in their intensity.
In a statement, the coalition said it carried
out 18 airstrikes throughout Raqqa
province, destroying a number of IS vehicles and 16 bridges. An earlier statement
said the attacks also destroyed vital IS-controlled structures and transit routes in Syria.
The significant airstrikes tonight were
executed to deny Daesh the ability to move
military capabilities throughout Syria and
into Iraq, said coalition spokesman Lt.
Col. Thomas Gilleran, using the Arabic
acronym for the Islamic State group.
This was one of the largest deliberate
engagements we have conducted to date in
Syria, and it will have debilitating effects

on Daeshs ability to move from Raqqa, he

said.
Raqqa is the de facto capital of the socalled Islamic caliphate declared a year ago
by the Islamic State group in territories it
controls in Iraq and Syria. The sustained
airstrikes add pressure on the militants in
Raqqa, still reeling from last months loss
of the border town of Tal Abyad to Kurdish
fighters. The town on the Turkish border
was a major avenue for commerce and smuggling for the group.
A militant website said 10 people were
killed and dozens of others wounded. An ISaffiliated Facebook page said one civilian
was among those killed and 10 were wounded including women and children. It also
said the bombing destroyed several bridges.
The IS-affiliated Aamaq news agency
released a video of what it said was the
effects of shelling Saturday by a U.S. drone
on Raqqa.
It showed several wounded men on a
stretcher and at least three young boys
being treated for wounds at what appeared to
be a hospital.
A Raqqa-based anti-IS activist network
reported eight civilians were killed by the
coalition airstrikes, including a 10-year-old
child.
The casualty figures could not be independently confirmed.

John Kerry says Iran nuke

talks could go either way
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

VIENNA Nine days into marathon

nuclear talks, U.S. Secretary of State John
Kerry on Sunday said the diplomatic efforts
could go either way, cutting off all potential pathways for an Iranian atomic bomb or
ending without an agreement that American
officials have sometimes described as the
only alternative to war.
The EUs top foreign policy official,
Federica Mogherini, said agreement was
very close. But Kerry said there was still a
ways to go.
We are not yet where we need to be on
several of the most critical issues, Kerry
told reporters outside the 19th-century
Viennese palace that has hosted the negotiations.
World powers and Iran are hoping to
clinch a deal by Tuesday, setting a decade of
restrictions on Irans nuclear program and
granting Iran significant relief from international sanctions. Kerry met for 3 1/2

hours on Sunday with Iranian Foreign

Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif, as top
diplomats from the five other negotiating
countries planned to return to Austrias capital later in the evening.
It is now time to see whether or not we
are able to close an agreement, Kerry said,
after hobbling on crutches through 97degree heat to a podium set up in a city
square.
While genuine progress had been made
and the sides have never been closer, at
this point, this negotiation could go either
way. If the hard choices get made in the next
couple of days, and made quickly, we could
get an agreement this week, Kerry said.
But if they are not made, we will not.
The talks had appeared to be moving forward. On Saturday, diplomats reported tentative agreement on the speed and scope of
sanctions relief for Iran in the accord, even
as issues such as inspection guidelines and
limits on Irans nuclear research and development remained contentious.

Legislation compromises patient safety

By Luther Cobb, M.D.

hen we have a medical

problem, we want to make
sure our care is safe and
effective and provided by the highest
trained professional available. That is
why doctors are required to undergo
extensive, supervised training before
they are allowed to diagnose and treat
patients independently.
Two bills moving through the state
legislature this year would change
that, and put Californians health at
risk.
Senate Bill 323 and Senate Bill 622
would broadly expand the types of
procedures nurse practitioners and
optometrists, respectively, could perform without adequate training and
oversight. Last week, lawmakers
voted down SB 323, recognizing that
the bill failed to ensure patient safety.
But lawmakers must still vote on SB
622. When they do, they should keep
in mind that SB 622 presents many of
the same risks and shortcomings and
in fact, may be even risker.
Like SB 323, SB 622 fails to establish sufciently high clinical training
standards. Ophthalmologists are
physicians who undergo four years of
medical school followed by a year of
internship and three years of surgical
residency. During this time, they
complete around ten thousand hours

of clinical experience supervised by

highly procient
doctors.
In the case of eye
surgery, that experience is needed for
ophthalmologists
to correctly determine whether a
patient is a candidate for surgery, to
perform the procedure and do followup care, and to identify and manage
potential complications. SB 622,
however, would allow optometrists to
perform eyelid surgeries with a
scalpel and laser eye surgeries after
just 25 hours of additional coursework
and a handful of training cases for
each pathway, and in the end produce
surgeons in name only.
Second, SB 622 fails to implement
proper oversight mechanisms. The
Medical Board of California is the
only state entity set up to oversee surgical treatment decisions, and it
licenses all physicians in California.
By contrast, SB 622 would allow surgeries and other procedures conducted
by optometrists to be overseen by the
state Board of Optometry, whose
members have no experience with
these treatments and are therefore not
qualied to evaluate or regulate them.
Finally, many readers may recall the
events of several years ago when veterans at the Palo Alto Veterans Affairs

Health Care System were reported to

have suffered vision loss because
optometrists failed to refer glaucoma
patients to ophthalmologists who
were supposed to oversee glaucoma
cases as required by that VAs policy.
Those optometrists were supposedly
fully trained to be able to determine if
such vision loss was occurring, yet
they appear to have failed to detect
what was happening until it was too
late, suggesting their training was
inadequate. As a result, sadly some of
our veterans went blind. And speaking
of qualications, the VA nationally
just renewed a directive preventing
optometrists from doing the very
laser surgeries on veterans that
optometrists would be able to do on
California citizens.
At a steep cost to safety, together
SB 323 and SB 622 represent hasty
attempts to expand what can be done
by lesser-trained providers. SB 323
was rejected by a wide margin in a testament to its aws. SB 622s weak
training standards and oversight
mechanisms also greatly compromise
patient safety. Lawmakers should
make the right choice again and vote
against SB 622.
Luther Cobb, M.D., is the president of
the California Medical Association.

Editor,
As I was driving into downtown
Menlo Park July 2, I was greeted by a

Belmont at
the crossroads
By Michael ONeill

elmont has been thrust into a crucial crossroads.

Residents must now decide what kind of living
environment we want, both for ourselves and for
future generations. In the face of big money and prodevelopment political pressure, we could easily discover
that our beautiful community has morphed into bulging
McMansions, crowded neighborhoods, impacted schools and
trafc gridlock that would dramatically diminish the experience of living here. This threat
isnt somewhere down the road.
It is right now.
The Belmont City Council
recently passed a bundle of 40
overreaching changes to our
single-family zoning and tree
protection ordinances. Taken
together, these changes could
forever alter the small-town
character that brought us all to
Belmont. And most residents did not even know this regulation change had happened.
In the face of these pro-development forces, a group of
Belmont residents myself included came together
with shared concerns over both the changes, and the
process by which they were enacted. We felt that there was
insufcient public outreach for such important issues to
be left to the ve-member council and a handful of their
supporters.
Some of these changes were reasonable and overdue, but
others seemed designed to primarily benet developer and
real estate interests. And, since the City Council bundled
all these sections together, there was no alternative legal
mechanism to stop the enactment of some without including the others.
Calling ourselves Ask Belmont Citizens, we set about
to delay the enactment of these changes through the referendum process. Our concerns about insufcient public outreach were veried when we started going door to door
with our petition and found the overwhelming majority of
our residents had not even heard of these changes. When
informed, the general reaction was one of shock and
anger.
Enough residents have now signed the petition to have
the City Council rescind these ordinances or put them on
the ballot.
These sweeping changes to our zoning and tree ordinances were passed with the assertion that they would
have no real environmental consequences. Really? More
building, more people, more cars and trafc, fewer trees
and no resulting environmental impact? And they expect
people to buy this?
Real progress means planning for the long-term health
of the entire community. Future generations are depending
on us to deal with runaway growth while maintaining a
good quality of living. They depend on us to be good
stewards of our environment. Belmont citizens have a history of progressive action; they passed the rst ever antismoking regulation, and they formed a Green Action
Committee to guide city policy.
Belmont has the potential to be a great model for other
communities. We can manage our future without sacricing our beautiful city, and we can show leadership in how
we protect and use resources. This is a vision of real
progress.
Unlike what we see in other neighboring communities,
its not too late for us.
To facilitate their pro-development agenda, the Belmont
City Council has rewritten campaign nance rules to give
a much greater voice and inuence to a minority of afuent
citizens, and now businesses and corporations. At the
same time, they have silenced and dismissed dissenting
voices on the Planning Commission by introducing a new

Greece enters uncharted territory

By Elena Becatoros
and Demetris Nellas
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ATHENS, Greece Greece

lurched into uncharted territory
and an uncertain future in Europes
common currency Sunday after
voters overwhelmingly rejected
demands by international creditors for more austerity measures in
exchange for a bailout of its bankrupt economy.
Results showed 61 percent voted
no, compared with 38 percent
for yes, with 93 percent of the
vote counted. The referendum
Greeces rst in more than four
decades came amid severe
restrictions on nancial transactions in the country, imposed last
week to stem a bank run that accelerated after the vote was called.
Thousands of jubilant government supporters celebrated in
Syntagma Square in front of
Parliament, waving Greek ags
and chanting No, no, no!
It was a decisive victory for
Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras,
who had gambled the future of his
5-month-old leftist government
and his country in an all-ornothing game of brinkmanship
with Greeces creditors from other
European countries that use the
euro currency, the International
Monetary Fund and the European

Central Bank.
Today we celebrate the victory
of democracy, Tsipras said in a
televised address from his ofce,
describing Sunday as a bright day
in the history of Europe.
We proved even in the most difcult circumstances that democracy wont be blackmailed, he said.

No vote
Tsipras called the referendum
last weekend, saying a no vote
would strengthen his hand to
negotiate a better deal for his
country. His government has said
it believes it would be possible to
conclude a deal with creditors
within 48 hours.
But European ofcials and most
of Greeces opposition parties
painted the referendum as one of
whether country kept using the
euro currency even though that
was not the convoluted question
asked on the ballot. Opinion polls
Friday showed that 74 percent or
more want their country to remain
in the euro.
Given the unfavorable conditions last week, you have made a
very brave choice, Tsipras told
Greeks in his address. But I am
aware that the mandate you gave
me is not a mandate for rupture.
He said he would seek to negotiate
a viable solution with the coun-

trys creditors.
How European ofcials react to
the referendum result will be critical for the country, and a eurozone
summit was called for Tuesday
evening to discuss the situation.
German Chancellor Angela
Merkel and French President
Francois Hollande spoke to each
other Sunday night and agreed
that the vote of the Greek people
must be respected, Merkels
ofce said.
Sigmar Gabriel, Germanys vice
chancellor and economic minister, told a German newspaper that
the Greek government was leading
its people onto a path of bitter
austerity and hopelessness.
Tsipras has torn down the last
bridges, across which Europe and
Greece could move toward a compromise, Gabriel told the daily
Tagesspiegel. By saying no to
the eurozones rules, as is reected
in the majority no vote, its difcult to imagine negotiations over
an aid package for billions.
Belgian Finance Minister Johan
Van Overtveldt said a no result
complicates matters, but he
insisted the door remained open to
resume talks within hours.
What we certainly dont want
to do is to take decisions that will
threaten the monetary union, he
told Belgiums VRT. Within that
framework we can start talks again

with the Greek government, literally, within hours.

Time has run out for Greece,
which is dealing with an economy
in a protracted recession, with
high unemployment and banks
dangerously low on capital.
The international bailout
under which it received nearly 240
billion euros in rescue loans
expired last week, on the same day
Greece defaulted on an IMF repayment, becoming the rst developed nation to do so.

Current lifeline
Of critical importance will be
whether the European Central
Bank decides to maintain its current lifeline to Greece in the form
of emergency liquidity assistance,
or ELA. The assistance, currently
at around 90 billion euros, has
been maintained but not increased
in past days, leaving the countrys
nancial system in a stranglehold.
Sundays vote was held after a
week of capital controls imposed
to halt a bank run, with Greeks
restricted to a daily cash withdrawal maximum of 60 euros ($67).
Long lines have formed at ATMs
across the country, while pensioners without bank cards have
thronged the few bank branches
opened to allow them access to a

maximum 120 euros for the week.

The ECB operates on rules
according to which it can only
continue ELA funding if Greece is
in a bailout.
Without an increase, it is
unclear how much longer people
will be allowed to withdraw 60
euros per day. Some analysts say
Greece is so starved of cash that it
could be forced to start issuing its
own currency.
No country has ever left the 19member eurozone, established in
1999. The margin of victory was
far wider than expected, and is
likely to strengthen the young
prime ministers deance toward
Europe. Tsipras was voted into
ofce in January on a promise to
repeal bailout austerity.
This victory for the no camp
will unfortunately embolden the
government, but is likely to do
little to convince the creditors
that Tsipras is a trustworthy negotiating partner who has any ability to implement a deal, said
Megan Greene, chief economist of
Manulife Asset Management.
Keep in mind that any deal for
Greece will involve a much larger
scal adjustment than the one on
which Greeks voted today. I dont
think that Germany in particular
will be willing to make any con-

Tax officials slam Blue Shield in audit Standoff over social

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SACRAMENTO A decision to
strip Blue Shield of California of
its tax-exempt status was justified
by an audit that outlines the nonprofit health insurers stockpiling
of $4 billion in surpluses, state
tax officials said in a report.
The California Franchise Tax
Board audit slammed Blue Shield
for its extraordinarily high surpluses and for failing to offer
more affordable coverage or other
public benefits, the Los Angeles
Times reported Sunday.
The insurers operations are
indistinguishable from those of
its for-profit health care competitors, auditors found.

Blue Shield is not operating

exclusively for the promotion of
civic betterment or social welfare, the key test for preserving
its exemption, tax board officials
Christie Maddox and Eddie
Murillo-Corona wrote to the insurer in a 16-page report sent June 3,
2014. Blue Shield is the states
third-largest health insurer with
3. 4 million customers, 5, 000
employees and $13.6 billion in
revenue last year. Its tax-exempt
status was revoked last August.
Since the Times made the revocation public in March, Blue
Shield has come under increasing
scrutiny from regulators, lawmakers and consumer groups over its
massive financial reserves and its

proposed purchase of a Medicaid

insurer for $1.2 billion.
The health insurer argued in
favor of its tax exemption, pointing to charitable giving of about
$30 million annually and its voluntary 2 percent cap on profits.
The auditors were not moved.
They also expressed concern that
job descriptions for top executives directed them to maximize
profitability.
These stated objectives, particularly those which stress profitability, are inconsistent with an
organization organized as a nonprofit which desires tax-exempt
status, officials wrote.
The company continues to
appeal the states revocation.

media passwords
breaks new ground
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

HOUSTON A Houston-area
man had used social media to promote his gun store, posting politically charged messages that criticized the president and promoted
Second Amendment rights.
But after Jeremy Alcede lost
ownership of his store in bankruptcy, a judge declared the businesss Facebook and Twitter
accounts property that belonged
to the new owner and ordered
Alcede to turn over the passwords.

Alcede, who argued the accounts

were personal, refused and spent
nearly seven weeks in federal custody until he complied with the
order in May.
The judges ruling charts new
legal territory in awarding property in bankruptcy proceedings and
points to the growing importance
of social media accounts as business assets. Legal experts say it
also provides a lesson for all business owners active in social media
about keeping separate accounts.

All-Williams sister act at Mondays Wimbledon

By Chris Lehourites
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LONDON One five-time Wimbledon

champion is guaranteed to reach the quarterfinals. Another is assured of elimination.
Thats what will happen Monday when
Serena Williams plays older sister Venus
Williams for the sixth time at the grasscourt Grand Slam in southwest London.
Theyve been unbelievable for the sport.
Ive said that many times, said Roger
Federer, a seven-time Wimbledon champion
who will also be playing on Manic Monday.
Their head-to-heads, I dont know how

much that has to do with it. I think its more

their individual play.
Individually and together, the Williams
sisters have become two of the greatest
champions at the All England Club. They
have each won five singles titles, and have
teamed up to win five more in doubles.
Against each other on the grass at
Wimbledon, Serena leads 3-2, with all three
of her wins coming in finals. Venus won one
final, and also won a semifinal match
against her younger sibling in 2000 the
first time they met on court at the tournament.
Although Serena is still at the top of her

game and going for a true Grand Slam this

season, Venus has been struggling for the
past few years and was diagnosed with an
energy-sapping autoimmune disease in
2011, three years after her last Wimbledon
title. It was the previous year, in 2010,
when she last reached the quarterfinals at
Wimbledon.
But this year, Venus has been nearing her
past high standards, winning all three of her
matches in straight sets.
Shes playing so well, Serena said. Im
practicing next to her every day and Im in
awe of how shes doing. Its a little frustrating because I know I have to play her.

The Williams matchup is just one of the

16 fourth-round matches on the schedule for
Monday eight for the men and eight for
the women.
Here are some things to know about
Mondays matches:

Rogers record
Roger Federer is the only current player
with more Wimbledon singles titles than a
Williams, and the seven-time champion is
one away from a record-setting eighth.
Federer has had a relatively straightfor-

San Mateos underdog squad awaits opponent for Thursdays District 52 title round
By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

It was anticipated San Mateo would have

the team to fly through the winners bracket
of the District 52 Majors Tournament. It just
wasnt supposed to be San Mateo American.
After San Mateo National won the District
52 title for two straight years first in the
9-10-year-old bracket in 2013, then in the
10-11-year-old bracket last season
American has emerged as the team to beat in
this years Majors tourney.
Unbeaten American won its fourth straight
game Sunday with a 14-8 triumph over San
Carlos American at Middlefield Park. With
the win, American is just one victory away
from a District 52 title as they advance to
Thursdays championship round. They must
be beaten twice in order to be eliminated by
whichever of the five other remaining teams
Hillsborough, Belmont-Redwood Shores,
Half Moon Bay, San Carlos American and
crosstown rival San Mateo National survives the losers bracket.
For us, it was really important (to win
Sunday) because we know there are a lot of
good teams in the losers bracket,
Americans Petey Halpin said. So it gives us
a lot of cushion, knowing they have to beat
us twice.
Halpin was a force on the mound Sunday,
working four-plus innings to earn the win.
The right-hander was dialed in from the start.
Of the 12 pitches he threw in the first inning,
11 were for strikes. Not only did he strike out
the side in the first, the first nine outs he
recorded were all by way of the punch out.
In his second start of the tournament,
Halpin finished the day allowing three runs
on five hits while walking two and striking
out nine. In his previous start in Americans
14-0 victory over Belmont-Redwood Shores
to open the tournament, Halpin worked 3
2/3 innings to notch the win, yet struck out
just three.
It seems Halpin can flip the strikeout
switch as he sees fit. After missing bats with

Red Rock Volleyball put itself on the map at

this years junior nationals.
The Redwood City volleyball club, in its
third year of existence, saw its top-tier
team, Red Rock Black 18-1, qualify for the
18 Open Division at the USA Volleyball
Junior Nationals for the first time in the
clubs brief history.
Storming to an 11th place finish at last
weeks four-day event in
New Orleans, the Black
18-1 squad exceeded the
expectations of the
clubs founder, head
coach Dave Huan. But the
former Menlo-Atherton
coach Huan helmed
the varsity Bears in 2007
and 08 said his Red
Victoria Garrick Rock squad was disappointed they didnt do better.
They were a little disappointed, Huan
said. They had a great opportunity to do a little better but they had a great time. It was
the best season theyve ever had.
Red Rock Black features several local
standouts, including Sacred Heart Prep grads
Victoria Garrick and Ara Peterson; Menlos
Elisa Merten; and South Citys Sharon
Tacuaoga.
They breezed through the first eight games
of pool play, including a victory over eventual national champion T-Street of Irvine, to put
themselves in a position to make a run at the
Gold Bracket composed of the top eight
finishers and a shot at the overall title.
Going into the tournament, we didnt really have expectations because we were an
underdog team ... and we went pretty far,
Garrick said.

Zimmermann (7-5) has allowed one run

Brandon Crawford hit his 12th homer of the
season for the Giants, who lost manager
Bruce Bochy and starting pitcher Ryan
Vogelsong to ejections and finished 0-6 on
their road trip.
Reliever George Kontos (2-1) allowed

Ramos homer.
Bochy and Vogelsong were ejected by plate
umpire Phil Cuzzi in the fifth inning after
complaining about the strike zone.
The last time he faced the Giants,
Zimmermann held them scoreless for 8 2-3
innings in Game 2 of the 2014 NLDS before

charged with a run after Panik later scored to

18 innings.
Zimmermann allowed Crawfords homer in

the fourth inning Sunday, then retired 10 of

the last 11 batters he faced.

Froome, Contador out front in Tour de France

By Jerome Pugmire
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEELTJE JANS, Netherlands

In ferocious winds and thunderous
rain, Chris Froome and Alberto
Contador managed to use the conditions to their advantage on the
second stage of the Tour de France.
That gave them the early leg up
on main rivals Vincenzo Nibali
and Nairo Quintana.
While its too soon for anyone
to gain a decisive advantage in the
race, British rider Froome and the
Spaniard Contador are certainly on
the front foot in what is widely
touted as a four-way Tour battle.
Theyre more than a minute
ahead of defending champion
Nibali and Quintana after both
rivals fell behind when the peloton split up in the heavy winds.
We knew that in stages like
today there might be even more
differences made than in the mountains, said Contador, who is bidding for a third Tour title. I was
speaking to Froome and (Tejay)
Van Garderen and I told them that
these are the kind of opportunities
you have to take.
They certainly did.
Froome crossed the line in seventh place, 1 minute 28 seconds
ahead of Nibali and Quintana,
while Contador gained 1:24 on
those two after placing 13th.
The action-packed trek swept
along the spectacular Dutch coastline, with Andre Greipel winning a
sprint to clinch a seventh Tour

the pack during the 166-km second
stage of the Tour de France.
stage victory. The German rider
trumped an all-star cast featuring
three-time defending Tour sprint
champion Peter Sagan, four-time
world time trial Fabian Cancellara,
and 25-time Tour stage winner
Mark Cavendish.
The 34-year-old Cancellaras
smile beamed as brightly as the
sunshine that finally pierced
through the clouds late in the
afternoon as he pulled on the race
leaders yellow jersey 11 years
after wearing it for the first time.
But the day also belonged to
Froome, the 2013 Tour winner
who crashed out early in last
years race, and to Contador.
Froome, 10th overall, is now
1:21 ahead of Nibali and leads

Quintana by 1:39 in the standings.

With the exception of Van
Garderen the American rider is
four seconds ahead of Froome in
eighth overall none of the others in the top 10 is a threat for the
Tour victory.
This is a huge advantage for us
to be sitting in this position after
one flat day out on the road,
Froome said.
Contador, who is 12 seconds
behind Froome in 14th spot,
moved 1:09 ahead of Nibali and
1:27 clear of Quintana overall.
The stage finish in the heart of
the Zeeland Delta offered a spectacular backdrop.
Riders rode over a pier with
waves crashing beneath them, and
then snaked through treacherously
narrow streets packed with crowds.
Nearing the line, Cavendish
moved first but Greipel timed his
riposte perfectly.
Swiss veteran Cancellara, who
is riding in his last Tour, took the
race leaders jersey from overnight
leader Rohan Dennis after finishing third and picking up a time
bonus.
Sundays 166-kilometer (103mile) trek started out from the
Dutch city of Utrecht, where
Dennis had won Saturdays individual time trial. As the weather
conditions worsened, crashes
became inevitable.
The Tour swings into nearby
Belgium on Monday for stage
three: a 159. 5-kilometer (99mile) route from Anvers to Huy.

As offense a no-show against Ms rookie

By Michael Wagaman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

OAKLAND Athletics rookie Chris

Bassitt recorded two quick outs in the sixth
inning and was on the verge of heading back
to the dugout when he hit Robinson Cano of
the Mariners in the right foot with a 1-2
pitch.
Things quickly got out of hand after that.
Nelson Cruz followed with a double and
former Oakland outfielder Seth Smith drove
in both runners with a two-run single that
provided the difference in Seattles 2-1 win
over the As on Sunday.
It was a stupid pitch, Bassitt said. That
was me trying to overthrow it a little bit. I
tried to back foot him and instead I frontfoot him. It a slider in and I shanked it.

Making his second

start in place of ailing
Oakland ace Sonny Gray,
Bassitt (0-2) allowed five
hits with three strikeouts
and one walk in 5 2-3
innings.
As
manager
Bob
Melvin praised his young
pitcher, who is likely to
Mike
Montgomery be sent back down to the
minors now that Gray is
back with the ballclub.
He pitched great, Melvin said. He
threw the ball over the plate, he threw
strikes. When you give up two runs youre
in a good position.
Except that Oaklands struggling offense
managed just one run Sam Fulds home

Monday July 6, 2015

run in the third.

Beyond that, the As couldnt get much
going against Seattle rookie Mike
Montgomery and three relievers.
Coming off two straight shutouts,
Montgomery (4-2) gave up one run and six
hits in 5 2/3 innings. He walked one and
struck out two.
Montgomery was trying to join Randy
Johnson as the only players in franchise
history to pitch three consecutive shutouts.
Fernando Rodney pitched the ninth for
his 16th save.
The Mariners announced before the game
that manager Lloyd McClendon will miss
Seattles upcoming series against Detroit to
attend the funeral for his younger sister in
Indiana.
Montgomery extended his scoreless
streak to 20 innings before Fuld homered
with one out in the third. It was Fulds first
homer since last Sept. 14, when he also
connected against the Mariners.
Oakland hit into double plays in three
consecutive innings.

made it 4-0 with an audacious 54-yard, rightfooted shot from midfield that sailed over
goalkeeper Ayumi Kaihori.
Japan closed on Yuki Ogimis goal in the
27th and an own goal by Julie Johnston in
the 52nd. Tobin Heath scored two minutes
later for the Americans, who had struggled in
the World Cup since winning the inaugural
tournament in 1991 and then again at the
Rose Bowl eight years later.
Christie Rampone, the only holdover
from the 1999 team, lifted the trophy with
Wambach, the 35-year-old former FIFA
Player of the Year who lost her regular starting job with age. Wambach was among the
most vocal opponents of FIFAs decision to
play the tournament on artificial turf.
With FIFA President Sepp Blatter staying
away during a U.S. criminal investigation of
soccer officials, the trophy was presented by
FIFA Senior Vice President Issa Hayatou of
Cameroon, the head of African soccers governing body.
Hope Solo won the Golden Glove as top
goalkeeper of the tournament. She played

Federation to drop her after she initially

violence from a June 2014 altercation at her

became the first American since Michelle

Akers in 1991 to score multiple goals in a
World Cup final. The only other hat trick in
a World Cup final was when Englands Geoff
Hurst scored three times against Germany in
the mens 1966 final at Wembley.
Lloyd scored six goals in seven matches
during the monthlong tournament, raising
her international total to 69.
Holiday added her goal in the 16th minute,
volleying a header by a Japanese defender.
Ogimis goal in the 27th minute was the
first Solo had allowed after five straight
shutouts. The only other goal scored against
her came in the first half of the tournament
opener against Australia.
The United States went 540 minutes without conceding a goal, the longest streak in
the World Cup since Germany went 679

years ago its first World Cup title and it came
just months after the massive earthquake and

20,000 people and touching off the worst
nuclear catastrophe since Chernobyl in

The United States has a 25-1-6 record
against Japan, and a 3-1 advantage in World
Cup meetings. The tournament was been
played while FIFA, soccers international
governing body, has been rocked by a
widening American corruption probe that

than $150 million involving high-ranking
FIFA officials over a 24-year span.

The title also vindicated the U.S. Soccer
Federation for its decision in April 2014 to
fire coach Tom Sermanni, who had replaced
Pia Sundhage the previous year, and replace
him with Ellis, the British-born American
who had been an assistant on the coaching
staff.
Japan returned eight starters from the
2011 final, when it beat the U.S. on penalty
kicks. The Americans, turning their roster
over more, started just four of the 11 players
who opened that game in Germany.

Lloyd, a 32-year-old midfielder, had come

up big before, scoring the winning goals in
the 2008 and 2012 Olympic finals.
She put the U.S. ahead in the third minute
off a corner kick from Megan Rapinoe, then
made it 2-0 when she poked the ball between

goes over (the fence), good.

San Carlos kept it close until the bottom of
the third when American rallied for a fivespot in the bottom of the frame. Loville and
Robert Vaihola started the inning with backto-back singles and Ronien Barbiera was hit
by a pitch to load the bases. Coco Affrunti
drew an RBI walk. Jack Fitzgerald got hit by
a pitch to force home pinch runner Matthew
Haverty. Barbiera scored on a wild pitch and
Affrunti plated on an RBI groundout by
Daniel Geller. Fitzgerald then scored on a
wild pitch to give American a 9-2 lead.
After American scored in the fourth on
Lovilles solo homer, they nearly walked off
with a mercy-rule win by putting runners at
second and third. But San Carlos pitcher
Shane Douglas was able to escape the jam by
striking out Gellar to end the inning.
Gellar responded with some superb defense
at the hot corner. Americans third baseman
made two nice plays in the top of the fifth.
With runners on first and second, he nearly
turned a double play on a sharp grounder, but
settled for the lead out at third. Then on a
high hopper, Geller ranged back and quickly
fired to second to get the second out of the
inning.
According to American manager P.J.

Jeremiah, Geller had never played third base

prior to this season. He was a shortstop and
pitched in the regular season. And he plays
outfield for his club team.

I would think so, Halpin said. Knowing
the results of this, I would like to strike out

on three pitches, that felt better. So, it

Red Rock fell shy of the Gold Bracket, however, with a loss in the playoff qualifier to
Mid-American Volleyball of Kansas in a grueling three-set battle. MAVS rallied for a 2515, 18-25, 16-14 win after Red Rock led 1311 in the final set.
[MAVS] just played the best defense weve
ever seen, Huan said. They won some tough
points and were ultimately able to win the
match.
The loss knocked Red Rock into the Silver
Bracket playoffs, where the best they could
hope to finish was ninth place. Matching up
with eventual Silver Bracket champs Five
Starz of Davis, Red Rock took the first set but
ultimately fell 21-25, 25-20, 15-9.
The two teams had matched three times previously this season. Red Rock dropped the
first meeting during the preseason in San
Jose, but went on to win the next two, first in
a national qualifier in Reno and then the
Regional Championships in San Mateo on
May 10.
But Five Starz evened the score when it
counted in New Orleans.
Both teams played a little flat because the
night before both teams were eliminated from
the Gold Bracket, Huan said. So, even

He impressed me with some good hands at

shortstop, Jeremiah said. Most of the
plays he made were quick. So I figured he
could play third.
San Carlos cashed in, however, when
Douglas crushed a three-run home run to
close Americans lead to 10-5. After
American tallied four runs in the bottom of
the frame, including a two-run single by
Loville, San Carlos produced another threerun jack in the top of the sixth by Jackson
Cook.
The point-differential makes for the closest game American has played in the tournament, as theyve won by double-digits in
each of their first three contests.
It keeps us down to Earth a little bit,
Jeremiah said. You have to play a game like
this to keep you down to Earth sometimes.
With the loss, San Carlos falls to the losers bracket to play the survivor of the
remaining pack of four Wednesday at
Middlefield Park.

Red Rock got some payback of its own,

though, with its win over T-Street last
Tuesday. The teams had met once earlier this
season, with T-Street scoring a convincing
victory. Red Rock returned the favor in New
Orleans with a 25-13, 25-23 win.
That was a great game, Garrick said. And
theyre a great team.
Garrick said the matchup was one of Red
Rocks most relaxed of the tournament. After
winning two of three matches last Monday in
the first day of competition, Red Rock won
its first two games last Tuesday. So, in finishing out the day against T-Street, Red Rock felt
like it had nothing to lose.
We went out there with no nerves ... and it
was a big upset, Garrick said.
Vision 18 Gold of Los Gatos took 14th
place overall after falling to the Bronze
Bracket.
The club volleyball powerhouse featuring recent M-A graduate Devin Joos, along
with Mitty star and San Mateo resident Alexa
Dreyer dropped three of its first four matches of the tourney. Vision went on to win its
last four matches in pool play, then won the
Bronze Bracket opener 25-19, 25-22 over
Orlando Volleyball Academy. Vision fell in
the Bronze Bracket finals to Dallas Skyline
25-22, 25-22.

The DRT Method is a 5 Step S.P.I.N.E. approach to healing & restoring

Who is a Candidate for Disc Restoration Therapy

Disc Restoration Therapy has been found to relieve the pain associated with disc

two matches in straight sets and
his third in four. His next opponent is 20th-seeded Roberto

playing at Wimbledon for the third

But for Federer, the pursuit of

Willie Renshaw doesnt seem to be
the only thing spurring him on.
This is more something like

Maria Sharapova and Victoria

Terminator, Magic Mike fizzle

By Jake Coyle
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ats! Someone passed along a

copy of The Home Mag one of
our free, local publications
and noted that the cover is all wrong. The
publication for anything and everything
for your home, features a full-color cover
which essentially serves as an ad for a
local pest control company. A curious
beagle is looking up to a kitchen counter
where three rats are scampering. The rats
appear to have made some kind of ramp to
get into a jar and theyve pilfered two
doughnuts. Several things wrong with
this photo. First, the rats pictured are
domestic rats; whoever created the ad
blew it. People, youve got to know your
rats. These are not the sewer or roof rats
most home owners hope not to encounter.
And, domestic rats (or wild rats for that
matter) cant make ramps and cant lift
doughnuts out of a tall upright jar.
Raccoons, on the other paw, can do amazing things; its like they carry small tool
belts with them! We get it the cover ad
was meant to be cute. Were not going to
make a mountain out of a mole hill. But,
if youre looking for cute, consider adopting a domestic rat. They make wonderful
pets; in fact, even better matches than
rabbits for many families with younger
children. Domestic rats are very social;
theyre snugglers and will gladly spoon
with your cuff or collar and they tolerate
being held by smaller, less steady hands.
They are quite intelligent and regularly
clean themselves, though occasionally
may need their owners help with
hygiene. Childrens shampoo or a mild
oatmeal shampoo work just ne. Id like
to say we have several rats awaiting adoption right now, but as of today, weve
already rehomed the ones we had in our
care. Of course, that could change tomorrow. However, we have two guinea pigs
Larry and Rowena available for
adoption, and they are equally cute.

NEW YORK July 4th went off like a

dud at the box office. Anticipated new
releases Magic Mike XXL and
Terminator Genisys fizzled, leaving the
popular holdovers Jurassic World and
Inside Out to top the holiday weekend.
Despite the brawny enticements of
Channing
Tatum
and
Arnold
Schwarzenegger, the four-week rule of
Universals dinosaur sensation Jurassic
World continued with an estimated $30.9
million, according to studio estimates
Sunday.
Pixars acclaimed Inside Out nearly
caught up to the runaway dinos, taking in
$30. 1 million in its third weekend of
release.
The strength of those June hits and the
unfortunate timing of July 4th this year
coming on a Saturday (rather than stretching out a long weekend) meant the sequels
Terminator Genisys and Magic Mike
XXL both failed to match previous installments.
Paramounts Terminator Genisys, the
fifth film in the series which also marks
Schwarzeneggers return to his most iconic
character, took in $28.7 million over the
weekend and $44.2 million since opening
Wednesday.
Warner Bros. also tried to expand the
weekend, opening Tatums male-stripper
romp Magic Mike XXL on Wednesday.
But after a strong start, the film managed
just $12 million over the weekend. Over
five days it made $27.1 million.
The openings were disappointing for the
new releases, but each has a different makeup. Terminator Genisys, an attempted
reboot in the 31-year-old, James Cameroncreated franchise, was made for $155 million. Magic Mike XXL, a road-trip sequel
to Steven Soderberghs 2012 hit original,
was made for just under $15 million.
Megan Colligan, head of worldwide distribution for Paramount, said the weekend
simply didnt play like a holiday weekend.
The weekend got off to a very sluggish
start because people didnt have off until
Friday, said Colligan. Our start was just
not where it needed to be. Some of that does
have to do with it is pretty severe competition. Jurassic is still such a powerhouse in
the marketplace and it was hard to anticipate
that that wouldnt have burned off a little
more by now.
Genisys failed to come close to the previous
Terminator
film,
the
Schwarzenegger-less Salvation, which

Terminator: Genisys finished third at the weekend box office.

had a five-day debut of $65.3 million over
Memorial Day weekend in 2009.
Genisys, which critics have slammed, is
finding better business abroad. It made $74
million international over the weekend.
Magic Mike XXL, however, had the
benefit of largely positive reviews and
tracking numbers that suggested a possible
No. 1 opening of more than $40 million.
The original debuted with $39.1 million.
But Magic Mike XXL failed to expand
its audience. Whereas moviegoers for the
first film were 73 percent female, Magic
Mike XXL was a staggering 96 percent
female, Warner Bros. said.
Dan Fellman, head of domestic distribution for Warner Bros., said the film performed worse than expected
in the South, Midwest and in
Canada. Such a girls-nightout release, he said, didnt
materialize over the holiday
weekend.
Our audience wasnt

available to us, said Fellman. We might

be down but were not out. Im in the wait
and see mode.
Hollywoods summer has been inching
close to equaling its record 2013 season,
thanks partly to the unexpected success of
Jurassic World. (Now with $558.2 million domestically, its already the fourthbest showing of all time in North America.)
The biggest potholes this summer have
been holiday weekends, noted Paul
Dergarabedian, senior media analyst for
box-office firm Rentrak.
Those weekends usually are the tent poles
to Hollywoods summer spectacle, but the
lagging Independence Day weekend follows
a lackluster Memorial Day, when Disneys
Tomorrowland flopped.
These are the weekends everyones
going, Wow, what happened? said
Dergarabedian. Part of it was the calendar.
Part of it, too, was you have two movies out
there Jurassic World and Inside Out
that are just dominating the marketplace.
Both those movies have appealed to every
audience segment imaginable.
This weekend was still up 6.9 percent
over last year, when Melissa McCarthys
Tammy and the sci-fi adventure Earth to
Echo made for Hollywoods worst July 4 in
decades.
Universals animated off-shoot sequel
Minions will debut next weekend after a
strong international performance. The film,
which gives the pipsqueak henchmen of the
Despicable Me movies the spotlight, has
already grossed $124.2 million abroad,
including $54.3 million this weekend.

Randolph said Haley had little

They said witnesses reported seeing
a group of young men shoot fireworks

said Sunday.
Devon Staples and his friends had been drinking and setting off fireworks Saturday night in the backyard of a
friends home in eastern Maine, said Stephen McCausland,
a spokesman for the state Department of Public Safety.
Staples, 22, of Calais, a small city on the Canadian border, placed a reloadable fireworks mortar tube on his head
and told his friends he was going to light it, McCausland
said. But his friends urged him to stop.
Apparently, he thought that was a great idea,
McCausland said. His friends they thought dissuaded him
from doing it, and the next thing they knew, he ignited the
fireworks and he was killed instantly.

Lewis Gossett, president of the state

speaking with his board members
about pushing to bring the flag down
following a memorial to the victims
but didnt notify Haley about it until
after her announcement.
The governor got out in front. Im
glad she did, he said. She helped
define the issue in our terms and not
somebody elses.
The next day, the Legislature agreed,
by the required two-thirds majority, to
add the issue to its special session. The

The
Manufacturers Alliance and state
Chamber of Commerce have been
encouraging legislators to remove the
flag quickly.
Haley has spent much of the last
week surrounded by grief as she attended funerals for all nine of the church
shooting victims.
These were good, honest, hardworking, God-fearing people who died
because of hate, she said.
She was struck, she said, by Cynthia
Hurds life motto: Be kinder than necessary. She said she wakes up thinking
of Ethel Lances favorite song, One
Day at a Time, Sweet Jesus.
She took each funeral program home
to tell her two children about each victim, she said.
These people are forever ingrained
in my soul what they went
through, she said amid tears. It will

forever change the way I live my life.

... Every parent needs to understand we
have a responsibility to show our children, because hate is not born. Hate is
taught.
Haley, the daughter of Indian immigrants, grew up in the tiny town of
Bamberg in the Sikh faith. She didnt
look like her classmates and went
through hardships because of it, she
said, but her parents wouldnt let her
complain.
They always put the responsibility
on me: You have to show how youre
similar. Dont let people define you as
different, said Haley, who later converted to Christianity.
During her 2010 campaign, she
eschewed questions about the historic
nature of her candidacy. In the wake of
the church shootings, she seems ready
to discuss racial reconciliation in the
state. She says she plans to visit
schools to talk to children about the
Emanuel nine and why the flag had to
come down.
Since taking office, Haley said, a
goal has been to change how people
outside the state view South Carolina.
There is nothing I could ever do as
governor that did what those families
did, she said. They have totally
changed the perception by how they
responded to this through the love
and care and forgiveness theyve
shown. That gives us hope. That gives
us something to build on.

LOCAL/NATION

To rename or not? Institutions

reconsider honors for racists
By Susan Haigh
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

HARTFORD, Conn. The massacre

at a predominantly black South
Carolina church has institutions from
Alaska to Connecticut evaluating
whether they should continue enshrining the names of historical figures
linked to slavery and the Confederacy.
The June 17 slaying of nine black
worshippers led to calls to curb displays of the Confederate flag after
photos emerged showing the suspect
posing with one and burning the U.S.
flag. But it also has added urgency to
discussions on whether it is time to do
away with names given to schools,
colleges and streets that have come to
be seen in a new light in places far outside the South.
A petition is calling for Yale
University in Connecticut to change
the name of its residential Calhoun
College, which honors 1804 alumnus
John C. Calhoun, a prominent advocate of the slave plantation system
who became a vice president and U.S.
senator from South Carolina. The petition says the name, in place since the
1930s, represents an indifference to
centuries of pain and suffering among
the black population.
Yale spokeswoman Karen Peart said
the university welcomes the discussion. The tragedy in Charleston, on
top of countless preceding tragedies in
our countrys history, has elevated
public opinion and discourse on difficult subjects that have too long been
avoided, she said.
Other campaigns around the country
include efforts to change the names of
Lake Calhoun in Minneapolis and New
York Citys General Lee Avenue in
Brooklyn, named after Confederate

will
meet
Wednesday to discuss whether anything should be done with a downtown
memorial to fallen Confederate soldiers. The foundation was built in
1916 by the Daughters of the
Confederacy.
The Charleston shooting took place
during Bible study at Emanuel African
Methodist Episcopal Church, and the
man charged in the attack, Dylann
Roof, posted photos online showing
him holding a Confederate flag, along
with writings laying out hatred of
minorities.
David Glassberg, a University of
Massachusetts professor who has
researched public memorials, said the
naming or renaming of buildings,
monuments and even fundraising dinners is always political. And at the
time when many were named, AfricanAmericans did not have political
power.
For sure, African-Americans knew
that these people were who they were,
but they were really powerless to do
anything, he said. These traditions
represent the traditions of past people.
In Connecticut, the revisionist sentiment has extended in some quarters
to non-Confederate figures. The state
Democratic Party will decide this
month whether to strip the names of
two slave-owning U. S. presidents,
Thomas Jefferson and Andrew
Jackson, from the moniker of its 67year-old annual fundraising dinner.
The partys chairman, Nick Balletto,
said the shooting made him think
about how the party has changed and
history has not been kind to
Jefferson and Jackson.
If we want to be the party of the
people, we need to reflect what our

community is and we should step up

and make a change, he said.
For some, changing the name would
be too easy an answer.
Temple
University
professor
Christopher Rabb, a black 1992 Yale
graduate who lived in Calhoun College
when it still had a stained glass window
depicting Calhoun standing over an
enslaved black man, said he would rather
see a deeper reckoning with issues of race
and the role of white supremacists in
building American institutions, such as
Yale and other schools.
Removing a name, removing a
symbol is easy and we can say, problem solved, Rabb said. But were
dealing with a symbol and were not
dealing with the root cause. And the
root cause is systemic racism.
He contends that if Yale was serious
about addressing institutional racism
and white supremacy, it would make
sure every student knows about that
part of the schools history.
Yale has the ability to transform
itself, but it first has to be honest
about its roots, just like America has
to be honest about its roots, Rabb
said. Yale has not commented on the
matter beyond its recent statement,
but in 2001, in response to a report by
several doctoral candidates about Yale
and slavery, the school noted that
few, if any institutions or individuals
from the period before Emancipation
remained untainted by slavery.
Meanwhile, in Alaska, Gov. Bill
Walker has informed the U.S. Census
Bureau he plans to change the name of
a census district named for Confederate
military leader Wade Hampton.
The onetime slave owner rose to the
rank of lieutenant general while fighting for the Confederacy during the
Civil War.

records books dating through 1976
and in vital records dating through

Phase one of the multi-phase project

The board will vote on whether to
authorize an agreement with Kofile

an initial cost of $596,708 for a threeyear contract.

TRAUMA
Continued from page 1
are held out of competition.
According to the grand jury report,
SMUHSD and the Sequoia Union High
School District are the only two in the county that are doing neurocognitive testing.
SUHSD conducts its testing through a grant
from Sequoia Hospital, while the San Mateo
district pays for testing through its general
fund. Half Moon Bay High School did use
ImPACT testing for football for the 2012 season, but budget constraints have forced the
school to shutter the program the last two
years.
The Cabrillo Unified, Jefferson High and
South San Francisco Unified school districts
do not perform any kind of neurocognitive
testing, citing budget constraints, according
to the report.
Jeff Cosico, El Camino High School athletic director, said he has not heard from
SSFUSD about implementing neurocognitive
testing, but he and South San Francisco High
School athletic director Matt Schaukowitch
have been talking about implementing a test
on their own.
We want to do it where were both consistent, Cosico said.
One of our assistant trainers was kind of
pushing (for baseline testing). I said I wanted
the district to make the decision. But he
showed me a test and I said this is something
we could do on our own, Cosico continued.
Player safety is the number one concern. We
have the CIF baseline cognitive test, but it
wasnt district mandated.
Sell cautions, however, that the testing is
only one of the protocol used in determining
a concussion and when it is safe to return.
[Baseline testing is] part of the evaluation. Its not the biggest part. Its not going
to replace a doctor, Sell said. Its just
another tool.
In addition to testing, the state of
California and California Interscholastic
Federation (CIF), the governing body of high
school athletics in the state, have enacted
legislation to further protect athletes. A couple years ago, CIF passed a law that says any
athletes who suffer a head injury can only
return after clearance from a doctor. There
have also been new rules passed limiting the
amount of live hitting football players can do
during the year.
There have been some rules changes from

CIF and CCS about what you can and cant

do, said John Philipopoulos, Burlingames
football coach and athletic director.
Assembly Bill 2127, which took effect
Jan. 1, forces players who suffer a head injury
to sit out a minimum seven days after having
been evaluated and diagnosed by a physician.
All the testing and laws cant replace making an early diagnosis and taken the first initial steps in treating a possible head injury.
Matt Smith, head trainer at Burlingame High
School, said nothing is better than seeing
firsthand how an injury occurred.
And thats where things can get a bit
muddy. While football games are required to
have a trainer present before the start of all
games, other sports dont have that mandate.
So during the basketball and soccer seasons,
Smith, who has served as the schools trainer
for the last 10 years, finds himself have to
split time between two different venues,
which he said can have an impact on care.
It can be a bit [hectic], going back and
forth, Smith said. When things like that are
going on and there is a head injury, it can
make it a little harder because I may not have
seen
it.
Regardless, Smith will go through the protocol and always err on the side of caution.
Sell said its important to have a trainer
who is more concerned with the health of a
player than the result on the scoreboard.
You need, as best as you can, an uninterested third party making the determination,
Sell said. Its good to have someone there
who says I dont care if we win or lose, this
kid is not going back in.
The coaches, in this district, put the kids
first, but its nice to have someone who has
not prepared all week to win a game.
While the grand jury report focused mainly
on the safety of football, it did indicate that
football is far from the only sport that places
athletes in danger. Girls soccer and lacrosse
have seen a spike in head injuries over the
last several years.
The pace of the game has really sped up.
The skill level has gotten better in the last
decade, said Jose Navarrete, Woodsides
girls soccer coach and longtime youth
coach.
They do things in a higher gear than a
decade ago.
That has also contributed to more head trauma and its coming at an earlier age. There is
a growing movement to ban the youngest age
groups from heading the ball and Navarrete is
among the group.
I know there has been a lot of education
done, Navarrete said. I think at the younger

DAILY JOURNAL SPORTS FILE

Improving the player safety on the football

field may come down to changing the way
one of the fundamentals of the game is currently performed. Most defenders are taught
to get their head across the ball carrier, top,
but leaving the players susepitble to taking
knees and thighs to the head.The rugby style
tackle, bottom, stresses wrapping up the ball
carrier and tackling with the shoulder, with
the head on the outside of the ball carrier.
age groups, head gear should be mandatory.
Theyre still not in control of their bodies.
I dont think the element of skill will go
away if 8- and 9-year-olds arent heading the
ball.
Therein lies the greatest way to counter
possible injuries education. Sell believes
the way the game is taught needs to change,
especially in football.
No matter what sport, people coach the
way they were coached, Sell said. People
who are coaching now were taught to get your
head across the ball.
Now coaching staffs are realizing that puts
defensive players especially in harms way as
it becomes very easy to take a knee to the
head by a running back.

Now Sell and the Menlo School coaching

staff are utilizing the rugby tackle, which
stresses keeping a players head from crossing the body of the attacking the player.
Its a shoulder tackle, Sell said. Its a
tackle you should be able to make without a
helmet on.
Sell, who played football at Aragon and
rugby at St. Marys, said he was a better rugby
tackler than football tackler and, after looking at the safety ramifications, said he is a
convert.
I think [the rugby tackle] is easier. If
you can hug and twist, you can make the tackle, Sell said. Id rather give up an extra yard
if it means for sure [the ball carrier] will go to
the ground and the tackler wont get injured
and miss two weeks.
Sometimes the biggest battle is simply
protecting the player from himself. Even at
the high school level, an athlete is willing to
look past any potential injury to get back on
the field. Its up to trainers like Smith to
make sure that doesnt happen.
I cant base my decision on how the kids
says he feels, Smith said.
If there is a head injury, its almost assured
the player in done for the rest of that game
and will be required to see his or her doctor.
But Smith has also devised his own cognitive
testing to make a quick evaluation on a players condition.
I started doing baseline testing about five
years ago, before the district brought it into
play, Smith said. I do my own paper-pencil
test. It takes about seven or eight minutes. I
can add up the scores and compare them to
[the baseline scores]. Just the idea of having something tangible to go against when
player comes out of a game. Instead of just
going on what the kid was saying, now I say
something that is a repeatable test. Its not
hard and fast, but it gives us info.
Smith said he prefers his test over the
ImPACT test, simply because of the time
restraints necessary to take the district test.
Its time consuming, Sell said.
Smith said the post-injury ImPACT test can
not be taken for 24 to 48 hours after a diagnosis by a doctor. Because the test is so
involved, Smith said it take up to 25 minutes,
it could possibly worsen symptoms if taken
too soon after the injury.
I would prefer (my test), in my opinion,
than the ImPACT test. It can be given quickly
and gives you basic info to see if something
is there, Smith said. With my test, if they
get an injury, I can take them right in, readminister the test and look at the baseline
test. I dont have to wait 24, 48 hours.
