Settlement reached for bakery sewage discharge


Pilgrim Kitchen, Rolling Pin donut, Classic 101 Burgers and Shakes owner agrees to pay $47,000
By Samantha Weigel
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

San Mateo County prosecutors


and environmental officials reached
a settlement with the owner of several food service establishments for
numerous heath code violations
including discharging thousands of
gallons of raw sewage into the Bay.
The San Mateo County District

Attorneys Office announced the


$47,000 agreement Thursday with
Steven Le, owner of Pilgrim
Kitchen Bakery in Belmont, Rolling
Pin Donuts in San Bruno, and
Classic 101 Burgers and Shakes in
Belmont.
Prosecutors filed the civil complaint after officials from Belmont
police and public works departments as well as the countys envi-

ronmental health department determined more than 18,000 gallons of


sewage, including human excrement and toilet paper from Pilgrim
Kitchen, were discharged into a
storm drain between March 1 and
May 21, 2014.
After closing down for several
months to conduct repairs last year,
the bakery has since reopened and
all of the food establishments are

back up to code, according to prosecutors. Thursdays agreement


came after months of negotiations
with Le ultimately agreeing to cease
from discharging any more sewage
and reimbursing the county for its
investigation, according to the complaint.
Over the course of nearly four
years, all three establishments were
also found in violation of numerous

health codes from failing to apply


for permits to food preparers not
washing their hands, according to
the complaint.
Our goal of civil enforcement is
obviously to punish for the conduct,
but its also to be a deterrent to other
restaurateurs and other people in the
business of someone like Mr. Le, so

SACRAMENTO Gov. Jerry


Browns administration is proposing
to spend $3.6 billion a year for
repairs to Californias crumbling
transportation infrastructure, with
some of the money to come from a
$65 annual fee on vehicle registrations and increases in diesel and gas
taxes tied to inflation.
The administration confirmed
Thursday that it was circulating the
plan to legislative leaders and transportation interest groups, which had
called for spending $6 billion a year.

The proposal
says the $65
annual charge
would generate
$2 billion a year,
while $500 million would come
from
fees
charged to polJerry Brown luters and $100
million from socalled efficiencies at Caltrans,
which the independent state legislative analyst has said is overstaffed.

Southern New Jersey man digs


up live cannonball in backyard

SEAL BEACH Eight people were


arrested Thursday in California in a
probe of gangmembers suspected of
shopping with counterfeit money at big
box retailers and returning the goods for
cash refunds.
The investigation began in December
after a store in the upscale city of Seal
Beach, California, reported receiving
fake $20 bills. Since then, local police
and federal secret service agents said
similar bills have been traced to members
of two violent Los Angeles gangs and
were used in more than 4,200 transactions totaling more than $100,000 nationwide.

CAPE MAY COURT HOUSE, N.J.


The Atlantic City bomb squad was
dispatched to a southern New Jersey
home over the weekend after a man dug
up a live cannonball in his backyard.
Police say the Lower Township man
was digging behind his West Bates
Avenue home when he discovered the
explosive Saturday.
Police say the brass-capped cannonball
was approximately 5 inches in circumference and was stamped 4k, 85mm.
Officials say the bomb squad took an
x-ray of the device and determined it was
fully functional. The cannonball was later
detonated in an unpopulated area.

The money was used to fund their

They were still investigating where the
phony bills were manufactured, he said.
Authorities from a series of California
law enforcement agencies and the Secret
Service carried out 15 search warrants in
Los Angeles County and retrieved computers, gift cards, receipts, weapons and
counterfeit bills.
The suspects would spend between
$500 and $1,000 at a big box retailer and
return the goods to another of the stores
locations, Stilinovich said. In April, suspects shopped at toy store in Cypress,
California, and returned the items for a

County not keen to diversion


By Bill Silverfarb
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Most of the San Mateo County Civil Grand


Jury recommendations related to the care of
individuals with mental health issues requires
further analysis, according to a report by
County Manager John Maltbie.
One recommendation is to develop a pre-plea
mental health diversion program to help keep
individuals in crisis out of jail.
Currently, up to 24 percent of inmates in
county jail are diagnosed with mental illness
and 70 percent are substance abusers. Many
inmates are diagnosed with both disorders.
District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe, however,
isnt a fan of diversion as proposed by the grand
jury, he said after the report was released. His
office implemented a deferred entry of judgment program June 1 for individuals with lowlevel misdemeanor offenses.
It requires the individual to plead no contest
to the crime they committed. The agreement
delays sentencing until the individual completes
a program. If they dont complete a program,

then they return to court for sentencing.


In a pre-plea jail diversion program, charges
are never filed which could be problematic for
the District Attorneys Office if the individual
does not complete a program.
The countys Behavioral Health and
Recovery Services department will also be
opening a crisis residential respite center that
will provide a potential option to incarceration,
according to Maltbies report.
The grand jury issued a report Treatment for
Adult Mental Illness in San Mateo County:
What Exists? What Should Exist in June that
finds it to be an extreme challenge for individuals when trying to access county-provided services.
The grand jury issued five recommendations,
two of which have already been implemented or
are about to be including the implementation of
Lauras Law and coordinating computerized
medical records across three county divisions
including at the San Mateo Medical Center,
Behavioral Health and Recovery Services and
the county jail, according to Maltbies report.
Lauras Law authorizes the courts to order

outpatient treatment for individuals with mental


illness.
Other recommendations such as designing a
more useful website for individuals who need
immediate help, however, will require more
analysis by the county before being implemented, according to Maltbies report to the Board of
Supervisors.
The board is required to respond to the civil
grand jury report although it is not required to
follow any of the recommendations.
The grand jury also recommended that the
county conduct a public education campaign
regarding mental health services including
which services are available to individuals with
private insurance.
BHRS does not have the means to address
public awareness across all private insurers. The
large private insurers in our region are responsible for increasing awareness among their members of the services they offer and how to access
them, Maltbie wrote in the report.
Most private insurers now offer mental health
services with the passage of the Affordable Care
Act, Maltbie wrote.

Personal debate held over


rules governing gays giving blood
SACRAMENTO A California lawmaker
drew from experience Thursday in an unusually personal debate over federal

Administration policies
prohibiting men who have
had sex with men from donating blood.
Sen. Mark Leno, D-San Francisco, who is
gay, recalled how years ago he was prepared to
give blood but was blocked by rules that grew
out of the AIDS crisis, when the virus was
believed in the 1980s to primarily be spread
among gay men. He noted that the rules allow
donations by heterosexual men who may
engage in risky sex, but they block donations
by men like himself who are HIV-free.

It released a report by the independent Office

Brown receives bill protecting


immigrant crime victims
SACRAMENTO California lawmakers
are sending Gov. Jerry Brown a bill to help
immigrant victims of crime avoid being
detained or deported.
The state Assembly voted unanimously 66-0
Thursday to approve the proposal by Senate
President Pro Tem Kevin de Leon and
Assembly Speaker Toni Atkins.
SB674 would allow immigrant victims of
crime to apply for the federal Victim of Crime
Visa, known as a U-Visa.
Atkins, a San Diego Democrat, says the bill
requires local law enforcement to sign certifications for immigrants who are victims and
have been helpful in investigating crimes like
human trafficking, rape and sexual assault.

Missing Burlingame hiker


found dead in Yosemite
By Keith Burbank
BAY CITY NEWS SERVICE

National Park Service rangers found the


body of a missing Bay Area hiker earlier this
week in Yosemite National Park, park officials
said Thursday morning.
Rangers found Burlingame resident James
Millet Jr., 39, on Tuesday in the area of North
Dome, one of the parks granite domes and the
southernmost summit of Indian Ridge,
according to park officials and the Mariposa
County coroners office.
As far as park officials know, the last known
contact anyone had with Millet was on Aug.
11, Yosemite National Park spokeswoman
Jodi Bailey said.
Bailey said it appears Millet was hiking
alone.
Rangers discovered Millets car Sunday at a
popular trailhead and began investigating

whether someone abandoned it or was on an


extended
backpacking
trip, park officials said.
His car had been at the
trailhead for a long time,
according to park officials.
Rangers determined neither was the case and
James Millet authorities began searching by air for Millet on
Monday in an area of rugged terrain leading to
Yosemite Falls, according to park officials.
Millet, an experienced traveler, left a note in
his car indicating he planned to hike to the
falls, Bailey said.
Authorities narrowed the aerial search on
Tuesday based on additional information and
found Millet, then airlifted his body out of the
area, according to park officials.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN JOSE Three Northern California


jail guards have been arrested after an
inmate under their watch was found dead of
multiple blunt trauma, authorities said
Thursday.
Santa Clara County sheriffs spokesman
Sgt. James Jensen said the deputies
Rafael Rodriguez, 27, Jereh Lubrin, 28, and
Matthew Farris, 27 remain in custody
without bail.

Medical Examiner Dr. Joseph OHara said


that Michael James Pipkin Tyree, 31, died of
multiple blunt force injuries, visceral lacerations and internal bleeding.
Santa Clara County Sheriff Laurie Smith,
her voice breaking and eyes tearing up, apologized Thursday to Tyrees family and said
the disappointment and disgust I feel cannot be overstated. She was flanked by 18
uniformed officers, and at least another
dozen members of her agency in plain
clothes attended a news conference.

Effort fails to block PG&E tax break for explosion fine


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SACRAMENTO An effort to block


Pacific Gas and Electric Co. from getting a tax
break on the $1.6 billion it was fined for the
deadly 2010 San Bruno gas explosion has fallen short.
State regulators imposed the record-setting
penalty in April on the states largest utility for

the explosion that killed eight and destroyed


more than three dozen homes in suburban San
Francisco.
A company spokesman says the costs are
tax deductible, but state regulators say the
deduction should not be allowed.
SB681 by Democratic Sen. Jerry Hill of San
Mateo would prevent the company from
claiming the $115 million tax break.

Trump vows no third-party bid,


will back GOP primary winner
By Steve Peoples
NEW YORK Caving to intense
Republican lobbying, presidential candidate
Donald Trump ruled out the prospect of a
third-party White House bid on Thursday and
vowed to support whoever wins the partys
nomination a U-turn made easier by his
position at the front of the field.
The decision follows weeks of behind-thescenes efforts by GOP leaders, whove been
trying to avert the possibility of an independent
campaign by Trump ever since last months
opening debate, when he refused to promise to
back the partys eventual nominee. A thirdparty bid by Trump, or any prominent conservative, could doom Republican efforts in 2016.
I will be totally pledging my allegiance to
the Republican Party and the conservative
principles for which it stands, Trump said in
a news conference at Trump Tower, the goldhued skyscraper in midtown Manhattan
where he launched his surging campaign for
president.
The 69-year-old billionaire, who announced

his decision after meeting with Republican


National Committee Chairman Reince
Priebus, insisted he got absolutely nothing
for pledging his loyalty other than the assurance that Ill be treated fairly.
In a statement Thursday night, Priebus didnt mention Trump by name but declared his
pride in having all major GOP candidates
pledging to support the eventual nominee and
then took a swipe at the Democratic front-runner. We have the largest, most diverse field
in the history of either party, he said. Any
candidate would be a better president than
Hillary Clinton and offer the new direction
Americans want.
To the dismay of GOP leaders, Trump has
emerged as the overwhelming leader in a
crowded field, despite repeatedly insulting
key constituencies and offering few details
about his policies. The reality television star
has described Mexican immigrants as rapists,
questioned Sen. John McCains war hero status and insulted a popular Fox News host. His
refusal during the partys first debate to
pledge his support for the primary campaign
winner further roiled the GOP.

Clinton camp urged ex-State


Dept. employee to testify

Prosecutor: Church shooting


suspect to face death penalty

WASHINGTON Aides to presidential


candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton urged a
former State Department
employee who helped set
up her private email server to appear before a
House
investigative
panel, but the former
staffer has said he will
assert his constitutional
right not to testify.
Clinton,
the
Hillary Clinton
Democratic front-runner
for the 2016 nomination, has been dogged by
criticism about her use of a private email server for government business during her tenure
as secretary of state, and she has struggled to
explain her decision.
The response of Bryan Pagliano to a committee subpoena was unwelcome news to
Clinton aides who had pressed him to be
interviewed by the GOP-led panel investigating the deadly 2012 terrorist attack in
Benghazi, Libya.
The aides were not authorized to publicly
discuss private conversations and spoke only
on condition of anonymity.

CHARLESTON, S.C. The white man


accused of killing nine black churchgoers in
what authorities said was a racially motivated
crime during Bible study will face a death
penalty trial, even though not all the victims
families agree with capital punishment, a prosecutor said Thursday.
Solicitor Scarlett Wilson said Thursday that
some crimes are just so heinous they require
the most serious punishment the state can
give.
This was the ultimate crime, and justice
from our state calls for the ultimate punishment, Wilson said, reading a three-minute
statement outside her Charleston office. She
took no questions.
Wilson filed paperwork saying she would
seek the death penalty against 21-year-old
Dylann Roof a few hours before her statement.
Her reasons: more than two people were killed
and others lives were put at risk.

National Committee at Trump Tower in Manhattan, N.Y.

Around the nation


Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack said
Thursday.
The agency has spent all the money
Congress provided for fighting wildfires in the
12-month budget period, forcing it to borrow
money from forest restoration work designed
to reduce the risk of fires. Thats happened in
six of the past 10 years, Vilsack said.
Vilsack said further transfers are likely and
the agency expects to continue spending about
$200 million per week on fire suppression during the coming weeks.
The administration is pushing Congress to
change how the government pays for fighting
wildfires. It wants to treat some fires as federal disasters. The new disaster account would
cover the cost of fighting the most damaging
fires, which would reduce the pressure on
other parts of the Forest Service budget.

Democratic support piles up


for Iran nuclear deal in Senate
WASHINGTON Now a done deal, the
Iran nuclear agreement gained critical backing
from three more Democratic senators
Thursday, boosting White House hopes of
blocking a disapproval resolution in the Senate
so the president wont have to veto it.

Democratic Sens. Cory Booker of New


Jersey, Mark Warner of Virginia and Heidi
Heitkamp of North Dakota announced their
support in quick succession for the deal that
aims to curb Irans nuclear program in
exchange for wide relief from economic sanctions.
The announcement from Booker, in particular, was closely watched because he was under
immense pressure from segments of the
Jewish community in New Jersey to oppose
the deal, and New Jerseys other Democratic
senator, Bob Menendez, is an outspoken opponent.

SAT scores slip slightly;


more students take test
WASHINGTON Student performance on
the SAT college entrance exam is lagging,
continuing a mostly downward trend over the
last five years.
The College Board says in a report that a
record number of students took the exam.
The nonprofit organization, which administers the exam, said in a report released
Thursday that the mean score in reading was
495, down from 497 the previous year. For
math, it was 511, down from 513. Writing
scores dropped three points, to 484 from 487.
The top score in each category is 800.

Image of dead child on


S
beach frustrates world
By Tamara Lush
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

The photo of the dead 3-year-old Syrian boy


on a Turkish beach is haunting.
It captures everything we dont want to see
when we tap our phones or open our newspapers: a vicious civil war, a surge of refugees,
the death of an innocent.
The image of little Aylan Kurdi is hammering home the Syrian migrant crisis to the
world, largely through social media. Aylan
died along with his 5-year-old brother and
their mother when their small rubber boat capsized as it headed for Greece. The Associated
Press distributed the photos to its subscribers.
The photos were from the Turkish news
agency DHA.
It is a very painful picture to view, said
Peter Bouckaert, who as director of emergencies at Human Rights Watch has witnessed his
fair share of painful scenes. It had me in tears
when it first showed up on my mobile phone.
I had to think hard whether to share this.
But share, he did. Bouckaert, who is in
Hungary watching the crisis unfold, said people need to be pushed to look at the ghastly
spectacle so they can, in turn, prod governments to help the suffering Syrian people.
Still, will the disturbing image galvanize

girl fleeing a napalm attack in Vietnam, the
child in a firefighters arms after the

Or will it become just another of the many

Hungary opens door to trains


for migrants, but only to camps
By Shawn Pogatchnik
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BUDAPEST, Hungary Thousands of


people desperate to reach Western Europe
rushed into a Budapest train station Thursday
after police ended a two-day blockade, setting
off a wave of anger and confusion as hundreds
shoved their way onto a waiting train. But
when it tried to drop them off at a Hungarian
camp for asylum seekers, a bitter showdown
began.
One man threw his wife and infant son onto
the tracks, screaming in Arabic, We wont
move from here! Police surrounded the prone
family, pulled the husband away and handcuffed him as he wailed. His wife and diaper-

clad boy apparently uninjured despite their


stumbling descent onto the tracks were
freed and allowed to rejoin other migrants.
The scene of desperation was just one of
many that unfolded Thursday as tempers
flared in Hungarys war of wills with migrants
trying to evade asylum checks and reach
Western Europe, a showdown with consequences for the entire continent.
As Hungarys anti-immigrant prime minister warned European partners that he intends
to make his countrys borders an impassible
fortress for new arrivals, his government
struggled to coax thousands of unwanted visitors away from the Budapest transportation
hub that has been turned into a squalid refugee
camp.

Do not squander collaborative
efforts to address housing need
Editor,
I read with great concern the Sept. 2 Daily
Journal article entitled Ofcials differ over
affordable teacher housing. The story
describes the commendable actions of the
South San Francisco city manager and City
Council to reach out to South San Francisco
Unied School District Board of Trustees to
identify opportunities to collaborate to meet
the housing affordability needs of teachers
through the use of public land. The lack of
housing affordability is pervasive across San
Mateo County and has reached crisis proportions. It has led to massive displacement that
uproots longtime community members and
relegates many who work here to long commutes that saps their quality of life. Many
local teachers are among those profoundly
affected.
It was disappointing to hear the lack of
urgency from members of the Board of
Trustees present in the conversation had for
the immediate issues facing school staff the
same staff that our communities rely upon to
educate our children and prepare them for the
future. Across the region, stories have been
published about the problems schools are having hiring and retaining qualied teachers.
Many of those stories are from San Mateo
County. School districts have the ability to
help ll this gap with their public land assets
and providing livable wages. Local examples
like the staff/faculty housing our community
college district has created proves that.
To see such a tremendous opportunity for
local collaboration squandered would be tragic. Both the City Council and Board of
Trustees should redouble their efforts to meet
this critical need together.

not. So, we are going to now forward each

Gender discrimination
isnt causing unequal pay issues
Editor,
Our representative, Jackie Speier, tries to
make a case for passing an Equal Rights
Amendment for women in her guest perspective, Leveling the playing eld in the Aug.
26 edition of the Daily Journal.
Maybe the title of her piece should read
Level the paying eld, instead of playing.
Rep. Speier bemoans the unequal pay for
women in sports. What she does not address is
the unequal rate of prot generated by the
womens and mens sports. The reasons for
lower pay of female athletes are several
lower attendance, lesser popularity of certain
sports, smaller TV audiences, fewer endorsements by companies who do research before
committing their endorsement money. Prot is
prot.
Gender discrimination is hardly the main
reason for the discrepancies. The record viewership of the great victory of our womens
soccer team is not repeated often enough. Of
course, people should follow Rep. Speiers
advice to attend more events featuring female
athletes. More power to Serena Williams in
her quest for equal pay, but I would be more
convinced of her equality goal if she also
asked for extending the traditional length of
womens match to the length of a mens
match. I wonder if a woman gets paid less
for exactly the same work, why dont the
smart CEOs re expensive men and hire only
women?

Editor,
I chuckle when newspapers describe public
bonds by totaling the payments made over
their term. No doubt reporters think bigger
numbers catch more eyeballs.
For those who think this is a reasonable
approach, lets walk through a deal which is
anything but, based on current interest rates.

Assume Person A has a 3.75 percent, 30year, xed-rate, $1 million mortgage. Total
payments will be $1,667,216.13. Person B
offers to help Person A by taking over the
loan. All Person B asks for is a fee of
$1,125,000.
Person A, excited to save over $540,000,
takes the deal. Shes saving almost a third of
what shed otherwise pay!
Person B has no risk from this deal. The
mortgage payments will come from a risk-free
30-year Treasury bond, earning about 3 percent, bought with Person As fee. Person B
earns over $40,000 for his trouble.
This is a terrible deal for Person A. For one
thing, shes paying Person B more than the
outstanding balance of the loan.
By thinking in terms of total payments,
Person A ignored what nance professionals
call the time value of money. Cash in the
future simply isnt worth as much as cash you
have on hand today. Its better to repay the
loan with those less valuable dollars, even if
you spend more of them.
Thats why professionals dont think about
bonds in terms of total payments. It leads to
strange and expensive decisions. They focus
on the amount borrowed, instead.
We should follow their lead and do the
same.

Raising the
tobacco tax
The Sacramento Bee

here are lots of good reasons to


raise Californias tax on tobacco,
not the least of which is that when
cigarettes are more expensive, fewer kids
smoke.
Californias existing tobacco tax hasnt
been raised since a voter-approved initiative
in 1998.
California is a high-tax state. But because
of the influence of the tobacco industry, our
tobacco tax is among Americas lowest, at
87 cents per pack.
That places it 35th among the states, and
below the national average of $1.60.
According to a new Field Poll, 67 percent
of Californians think its high time we
changed that.
Sen. Richard Pan, D-Sacramento, introduced legislation last week to raise the
tobacco tax by $2 per pack, which would
place the states tobacco tax rate at No. 8.
The increase would require a two-thirds
vote to pass, which means bipartisan support will be needed.
But two other good reasons for passing it
are that it would increase the states antitobacco efforts and perhaps free up more
money to deliver more health care to
Californias poor.
Although they are averse to taxes,
Republicans should make an exception in
the interest of public health, and follow the
lead of Nevada Gov. Brian Sandoval, a
Republican. He signed legislation earlier
this year raising Nevadas tobacco tax by $1
to $1.80 per pack.
Less than 12 percent of Californians now
smoke, thanks to the states ongoing public
health efforts.
Indeed, at least a half-dozen new antismoking initiatives will be considered in the
final two weeks of the legislative session.
The current tax doesnt deal at all with ecigarettes, the one segment of the nicotine
delivery market thats booming. More than
470 brands of electronic cigarettes now
crowd the market in more than 7,700 flavors from Captain Crunch to Atomic
Fireball to cotton candy.
With names like that, its not hard to
guess the target demographic. According to
the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention, e-cigarette use among middle
and high school students tripled between
2013 and 2014.
While researchers are still determining the
health impact of inhaling nicotine vapor,
taxing one nicotine delivery system and not
another creates an effective discount that
makes vaping even more attractive to adolescents.
To the extent that e-cigarettes are acting
as a gateway drug to carcinogenic, conventional smoking, thats just bad policy.
So the tax needs updating, and in a hurry.
Medi-Cal is consuming tens of billions of
dollars a year and its costs are rising, with
too few doctors serving too many Medi-Cal
patients.
Its a serious problem, and strategically
targeted tobacco tax revenue would help.
The tobacco industry has pulled out all
the stops to protect its investment in the ecig market and to prevent the law from
treating e-cigarettes like other tobacco products.
As the tobacco tax proceeds, there surely
will be pressure to leave e-cigarettes
untaxed or to dial back on other proposals
to address them.
Lawmakers should resist the temptation to
cut such a deal. And they should pass this
tax increase themselves, thoughtfully, rather
than let its supporters put it on the 2016 ballot.
Tobacco industry money has beaten back
too many well-meaning initiatives in
California. Public health should take precedence.

How the market fared Thursday


U.S. stocks moved slightly higher Thursday after investors were
encouraged by comments from European Central Bank policymakers,
who said they were willing to provide more stimulus to the regions
economy, if needed.
For the day:
The Dow rose 23.38 points, or 0.1 percent, to 16,374.76.
The Standard & Poors 500 index added 2.27 points, or 0.1 percent, to

The Nasdaq is down 2.56 points, or 0.1 percent.

NEW YORK U.S. stocks moved


slightly higher Thursday as markets
calmed after a recent bout of turmoil.
Investors were encouraged by comments
from European Central Bank policymakers, who said they were willing to provide more stimulus to the regions economy, if needed.
Investors now turn to Friday, when a
key jobs report will be released that
could help determine whether or not the
Federal Reserve raises interest rates this
month.
Theres a lot of trepidation in the market over what the Fed will do, and its
only getting worse as we get closer to the
meeting, said Kristina Hooper, head of
investment strategies at Allianz Global
Investors. The Feds two-day meeting
begins Sept. 16.
The Dow Jones industrial average
added 23.38 points, or 0.1 percent, to
16,374.76. The Standard & Poors 500
index rose 2.27 points, or 0.1 percent, to

1,951.13 and the Nasdaq composite fell


16.48 points, or 0.4 percent, to 4,733.50.
Stocks started the day solidly higher,
but momentum waned as the day
dragged on. Major indexes dipped
briefly into the red by mid-afternoon
before ending mostly higher.
Investors were initially encouraged by
news out of the European Central Bank,
where President Mario Draghi said the
bank is ready to give the eurozone a bigger dose of stimulus should inflation
across the 19-country bloc fail to pick up.
Along with keeping interest rates low,
the ECB is pumping 60 billion euros a
month into the regions economy through
purchases of government and corporate
bonds. The program is slated to run at
least through September 2016.
Draghi said in 2012 he would do
whatever it takes to grow the eurozone
economy and hes holding to that promise, said Quincy Krosby, a market
strategist at Prudential Financial.
European markets jumped on the
news. Germanys DAX closed up 2.7
percent, Frances CAC-40 rose 2.2 per-

cent and U.K.s FTSE 100 rose 1.8 percent.


At the same time the ECB is stimulating Europes economy, the Federal
Reserve could raise U.S. interest rates for
the first time since the financial crisis.
While chances of a September interest
rate increase have diminished because of
signs of weakening global growth and a
sell-off in Chinese stocks, many believe
the growing U.S. economy may be ready
to withstand higher interest rates.
Fridays jobs report for August, a key
gauge of how the U.S. economy is doing,
could play a big role in guiding that decision by the Fed. Economists are forecasting that employers created 220,000 jobs
last month and that the unemployment
rate fell to 5.2 percent.
The price of oil followed the stock
market higher. U.S. crude rose 50 cents
to close at $46.75 a barrel in New York.
Brent crude, a benchmark for international oils used by many U.S. refineries,
rose 18 cents to close at $50.68 a barrel
in London.

Why Fridays jobs report could affect Americans finances


By Christopher S. Rugaber
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON With the Federal


Reserve edging into the spotlight, Fridays
jobs report for August could trigger eventual
changes in Americans financial lives.
Thats because a healthy job gain would
provide one of the final pieces of evidence the
Fed needs to start raising interest rates from
record lows on Sept. 17, which many economists expect it to do. It would also send a
reassuring signal that global stock-market turmoil and Chinas slowdown have yet to seriously jar the U.S. economy.
Analysts have forecast that employers produced a healthy increase of 220,000 jobs last

month, according to data provider FactSet.


Such a gain would extend a hiring streak that
has added an average of 243,000 jobs a month
for the past 12 months. Economists have predicted that the unemployment rate dipped to
5.2 percent from 5.3 percent in July.
That rate is within the range that Fed officials have said is consistent with a healthy
economy. Combined with another solid job
increase, a further drop in unemployment
would raise the probability that the Fed will
increase rates for the first time in nine years.
Many economists have long predicted that
the Fed would lift rates in September. But the
turbulence in global stock markets, a U.S.
inflation rate persistently below the Feds target level and a sharp economic slowdown in

China have scrambled their assumptions. Most


economists say the Fed will at least want markets to stabilize before they raise rates.
Still, after three years of solid job growth
that has put nearly 8 million Americans back
to work, Fed officials are probably satisfied
with the job markets progress.
Eric Rosengren, president of the Federal
Reserve Bank of Boston, said Tuesday that
the Feds desire to see further improvement in
hiring has largely been met.
Likewise, David Joy, chief market strategist
at Ameriprise, said, I think they feel pretty
good about where the job market is.
Once the Fed begins raising borrowing
rates, higher rates are likely to eventually ripple through the economy. Americans could

Labor Day drivers to enjoy lowest gas prices since 2004


By Jonathan Fahey
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK It has been more


than a decade since U.S. drivers paid so
little to fuel up for that last road trip of
summer.
The national average price of gasoline this Labor Day weekend will be its
lowest at this time of year since 2004, a
result of low oil prices and a quiet hurricane season that has allowed refineries to churn out gasoline and diesel.
The year of cheap fuel continues,
said Tom Kloza, chief oil analyst at the
Oil Price Information Service.
The national average price of gasoline fell to $2.44 Thursday, nearly $1 a

gallon cheaper than last year.


That means drivers will save about
$15 on a typical fill-up. For the four big
driving days of the weekend, Friday
through Monday, Americans will spend
$1.6 billion less than last year, according to an analysis by Klozas OPIS.
They are expected to drive more miles,
encouraged by low fuel prices, but not
enough to burn up their savings.
Gasoline prices often rise toward the
end of the summer driving season as
supplies dwindle and rough weather
disrupts production along the Gulf
Coast, where much of the nations fuel
is made.
But crude oil prices have plunged
because producers in the U.S. and

around the world have been furiously


pumping oil while at the same time economic weakness in China, Japan and
Europe raises concerns that future
demand growth will slow. At around
$47, oil is down 23 percent from its
June 10 high and around half the price
it was last year at this time.
The low crude prices and humming
refineries have helped the national
average price of gasoline fall 17 days in
a row, according to AAA. Refinery production has remained high because
refiners raw material costs are have
fallen faster than the price they get for
their products. U.S. supplies of gasoline
are above where they were at this time
last year.

face higher costs for mortgages and other


loans, though the increases could be modest
and gradual.
But Joy thinks the Fed may still hold off on
a rate rise at its next meeting because of
Chinas weakening economy, which has
weakened growth in countries that supply it
with raw materials, such as Brazil and
Australia.
A stumbling global economy and stronger
dollar, which makes U.S. exports costlier
overseas, could slow growth for the next 12
months, according to Goldman Sachs. In part,
thats why Joy thinks a disappointing jobs
report could lead the Fed to delay a rate hike,
particularly if stock prices plummeted in
response.

Business brief
Big settlement in tech wage
case harks back to different era
SAN FRANCISCO A federal judge has approved a $415
million settlement that ends a lengthy legal saga revolving
around allegations that Apple, Google and several other
Silicon Valley companies illegally conspired to prevent their
workers from getting better job offers.
The case focused on a no-poaching pact prohibiting
Apple, Google and other major employers from recruiting
each others workers.
Lawyers for the employees argued the secret agreement illegally suppressed the wages of the affected workers.
Things have changed dramatically since the class-action
lawsuit was filed in 2011. Silicon Valley employers now regularly raid each others workforces in search of talented engineers who might help them come up with new ideas and build
technologys next hot product.

Key to success for CSM reinvents itself


Serra is up front
By Terry Bernal

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

The goals for the Serra football team


havent changed this year, just the number
of goals to attain.
Serra serves the first year of a two-year
playoff ban as punishment for the fallout
from last seasons Central Coast Section
Open Division Consolation forfeiture.
Winning a CCS title is always coach
Patrick Walshs third goal of the season. It
is not available for the Padres in 2015. The
programs other two goals? Easily within
reach.
No. 1, every single year, is to create
(responsible) men. Thats never going to
change. How do we make better citizens for

San Mateo County. First and foremost. That


precedes everything, Walsh said. No. 2,
win WCAL (the league title).
Achieving goal No. 2 might be harder
than goal No. 1. The West Catholic Athletic
League remains one of the premiere leagues
in the state and winning a WCAL title carries a lot of cache. Walsh has guided the
Padres to five league titles in his first 14
years including last season. While the
Padres certainly have the athletes at the
skill positions necessary to beat WCALcaliber competition this season, their success will hinge as all offenses do on
the play of the offensive line.
This year, Walsh who in addition to
being the head coach is also the teams

See SERRA, Page 16

Experience on both sides of the line. New


blood to its core at the skill positions.
Thats the composition of the 2015 College
of San Mateo Bulldogs football roster.
The Bulldogs are in the thick of the
California Community College Football
Coaches Association preseason rankings,
tabbed No. 6 in the state. Seems like a high
slot, right? Well, that depends. CSM garnered the second highest ranking from the
Bay 6 Conference; City College of San
Francisco is ranked No. 2. And No. 4 ranked
American River is also on the Bulldogs
schedule this year.
Much like last season, when CSM
dropped just two games amid a strong 9-2
season. The two teams to which the
Bulldogs lost? American River and CCSF.
And CSM head coach Bret Pollack said he
talked with his team about the reasons for
the 24-14 loss to American River, CSMs
rst of the year, just days prior to CSMs

2015 season opener Saturday at College of


the Siskiyous.
[American River] outplayed us, Pollack
said. They played longer, better and
smarter than us. We just didnt play as well
against them in all areas. You just cant do
that against good teams.
The Bulldogs look destined for another
strong season though, if for no other reason
that theyve never had a bad one under
Pollack. In his career, hes posted a 50-14
record with his worst season coming in
2012 with a 7-4 nish.
Reinventing the skill positions is what
the Bulldogs do. Last season, they rolled
with two freshmen quarterbacks. Both are
gone this season, with a new trio in the
mix, and still competing for the starting
spot. Pollack wouldnt name a starting quarterback for Saturday, citing secrecy going
into the always-enigmatic season opener.
Let them nd out snap one, Pollack
said.

Judge overturns Brady suspension


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK Tom Brady learned


Thursday he will start the season on the
field after a judge lifted the leagues fourgame suspension of the
star quarterback for a
scandal over deflated
footballs, saying he was
treated unfairly by NFL
Commissioner
Roger
Goodell. The league
quickly appealed.
U. S. District Judge
Richard M. Berman criticized Goodell for disRichard
pensing his own brand
Berman
of industrial justice as
he found multiple reasons to reject the suspension one week before New Englands
Sept. 10 opener against the Pittsburgh
Steelers.
The Super Bowl MVP has insisted he
played no role in a conspiracy to deflate
footballs below the allowable limit at last
seasons AFC championship game, a 45-7
rout of the Indianapolis Colts.
The judge cited several significant legal
deficiencies in the leagues handling of the

controversy, including
no advance notice of
potential penalties, a
refusal to produce a key
witness and the apparent
first-ever discipline of a
player based on a finding
of general awareness of
someone elses wrongdoing.
Tom Brady
Because there was no
notice of a four-game suspension in the circumstances presented here, Commissioner
Goodell may be said to have dispensed his
own brand of industrial justice, Berman
wrote, partially citing wording from a previous case.
He said a players right to know what constitutes violations and what penalties are
was at the heart of the collective bargaining agreement and, for that matter, of our
criminal and civil justice systems.
The court finds that Brady had no notice
that he could receive a four-game suspension for general awareness of ball deflation
by others, the judge wrote.
Goodell said it was necessary to appeal
to uphold the collectively bargained

responsibility to protect
the integrity of the
game.
He called the need to
secure the games competitive fairness a paramount principle.
Hours after Goodell
issued his statement, the
Roger Goodell league appealed to the
2nd U.S. Circuit Court of
Appeals in Manhattan with a one-page
notice from NFL attorney Daniel Nash.
NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy said the
league would not seek an emergency stay,
freeing Brady to play while the case is
appealed. It could be months before the
court considers the case, since the league
would have to show it would suffer irreparable harm to speed up the timetable.
Goodell will also skip the SteelersPatriots opener next week, opting instead
to watch the game on TV and attend another
opener over the weekend, McCarthy said.
McCarthy said Goodell wants the focus to
be on the game itself and New Englands celebration of its Super Bowl win.

DENVER Carlos Gonzalez homered


twice for the second straight night, Chris
Rusin pitched a complete game and the
Colorado Rockies routed the reeling San
Francisco Giants 11-3 on Thursday night.
Gonzalez hit a pair of two-run homers to
take the NL lead with a career-high 35. He
finished with four hits and drove in four runs
to lead Colorados season-high 19-hit effort.
Nolan Arenado homered for the fourth consecutive game.
Gonzalezs big night helped extend San
Franciscos losing streak to six. The Giants
are now seven games back in the NL West
and the Wild Card chase.
San Francisco was swept by the Dodgers in
three one-run games heading into Thursday,
but there was no drama against the Rockies.
Gonzalez, who hit a grand slam and a tworun homer in his last two at-bats against
Arizona on Wednesday, went deep in the first
off Ryan Vogelsong in Colorados four-run
first. The outfielder greeted reliever George
Kontos with a shot down the right-field line

in the fourth to give Colorado a 9-2 lead. He


has 11 RBIs in his last two games.
Gonzalez has 16 career multi-homer games
in his career, including six this season
which have all come since July 24. He doubled in the second and singled in the ninth
ahead of Arenados 34th homer of the season.
Vogelsong (9-11) allowed eight runs
seven earned on 11 hits in three-plus
innings or the struggling Giants.
Rusin (5-7) bounced back from a rough
road trip to pitch go the distance. He wasnt
as sharp as he was on Aug. 16 when he
pitched a shutout against San Diego but he
allowed three runs on six hits and struck out
five.
Rusin has a 1.50 ERA in his last two home
starts. He is the first Rockies pitcher to
throw two complete games at Coors Field
since Aaron Cook did it in 2008.

Smith, said in a statement the ruling proves


the contract with the NFL doesnt grant
Goodell the authority to be unfair, arbitrary and misleading.
Patriots owner Robert Kraft called Brady a
classy person of the highest integrity and
the penalty against him unwarranted and
unprecedented discipline. He said the ruling was thoughtful.
Berman said the league was wrong to discipline Brady as if a deflating ball accusation was equal to using performance enhancing drugs.
Brady was also denied equal access to
investigative files, including witness interview notes, and wasnt permitted to question one of two lead investigators, the judge
said.
The Patriots, who were fined $1 million
and stripped of two draft picks, posted a celebratory photo on Twitter of Brady pumping
his fist and screaming at the Super Bowl last
season.
The ruling was a surprise to some legal
experts who believed Berman was merely
pressuring the league to settle at two hearings when he criticized its handling of the
investigation over the last eight months.

Gators sweep opener behind mighty sophomore


By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Will the graduation of Victoria Garrick


sink Sacred Heart Prep volleyball? Not if
Cate Desler has anything to say about it.
The Gators opened their 2015 season at
home Thursday cruising to a 25-17, 25-15,
25-14 win over Half Moon Bay. Desler made
certain to fill any void left by Garrick
SHPs lone All-West Bay Athletic League
first-team selection of a year ago.
A quiet 6-footer, Deslers unassuming
presence proved explosive in the clutch.
She totaled a match-high 13 kills, over half
of which came in Game 1. While the sophomore is the centerpiece of SHPs front row,
she has plenty of support.
I think its going to be a great team this
year, Desler said. All the girls are really
good team players. So, I think were going
to do well.
Winning in straight sets, the Gators didnt have a lot of time to showcase their
depth. Junior middle Natalie Zimits stepped
up with seven kills and freshman Alexa
Bartlett had five. Each were making their
varsity debuts, after helping the junior-varsity squad win the WBAL Foothill J.V.
championship last year.
But Thursdays opener was Deslers show.
Shes amazing, Zimits said. Shes an
incredible teammate.
Not that youd know it when Desler is off
the ball. Shes a quiet presence until she
explodes vertically. Second-year head coach
Ali Magner believed in Deslers prowess
last year, starting the then-freshman in
almost every game.
(Desler has) the ability to play at a high
level under pressure, and she definitely had
that last year, Magner said.
Desler emerged as the team's third-leading
scorer with 2.8 kills per set.
Cate is just calm, cool and collected,

action. Sarah Sinatra, at No. 2, won 6-2, 63. Lindsey Schloetter won her No. 3 singles
match, 6-3, 6-2.
The Panthers No. 2 doubles squad of
Monica Millet and Eleni Rally lost in three
sets. Millet and Rally won the first set, 7-5,
but the Irish duo of Natalie McMyn and
Madeline Plant won the final two sets 6-3,

toughness not to let the ball hit the


ground.
One of the premier hitters in the
Peninsula Athletic League Ocean Division
last year, Merkes was thundering attempts
Thursday and finished with 10 kills. But
SHP was ultimately able to key on the
Cougars one-woman show.
[Merkes] doesnt know when to turn the
brakes on, Half Moon Bay head coach
Ryan Havice said. Shes happy to do it.
SHP senior setter Lilika Teu added 32
assists. Senior libero Jorden Schreeder had
12 digs. Half Moon Bay was paced with 16
assists by junior Bailey Steger and 11 digs
by senior Kimmie Odasz.
Odasz is one of just three seniors on roster for HMB, which is one of the few teams
in the PAL Ocean Division with a threetiered system. Havice is optimistic about
guiding the burgeoning volleyball program
into the future, having coached many of the
third-year freshman team on the club volleyball circuit with Breakwater 14U.
By the time they are juniors and seniors,
theyre going to be a major factor, I think,
Havice said.

Garrick off and running at USC


After leading SHP in scoring (5.2 kills per
set) and defense (4.9 digs per set) last year,
Garrick is making a Division-I impact with
USC this season.
The freshman has played in all but one set
for the Trojans, who are off to a 3-0 start. A
defensive specialist, Garrick currently
ranks second on the team with 3.56 digs per
set.
Her killer drive is above and beyond anyone youll ever meet, Magner said.

Menlo sweeps Like Oak


The defending WBAL Foothill Division
co-champs Menlo Knights started their sea-

son with a sweep of Live Oak Thursday 2515, 25-15, 25-12.


Sophomore Ashley Dreyer was nearly
unstoppable, totaling a .909 hitting percentage while notching 10 kills. Senior
Maddie Stewart returned to action with nine
kills after missing the entire 2014 season
due to injury. Freshman Selina Xu debuted
with a match-high 24 assists. The sister act
of Jessica Houghton and Suanna Houghton
had 11 digs and seven digs, respectively.

Sequoia goes the distance


The Cherokees are biding their time until
star outside hitter Leanne Robinson returns
from injury. They flashed quite the ace up
their sleeve in Thursdays opener in junior
opposite Julia Carlson.
With Sequoia claiming third place in the
Peninsula Athletic League Bay Division last
season, Carlson was a bright spot by leading the Bay in blocks at the midway point
of the season. Her outstanding sophomore
campaign was cut short on Oct. 21, however, when she suffered a season-ending ankle
injury against Burlingame.
Thursday, It took Sequoia five sets to
overcome Washington 25-14, 25-27, 2518, 13-25, 15-12. While Cherokees head
coach Dustyn Woropay was testing various
lineups through the middle sets, Carlson
started and finished strong.
She put us on her back tonight,
Woropay said.
The 5-11 junior had 19 kills and six
blocks, working like clockwork with setter
Emma Cheatham, who tabbed 31 assists.
Senior middle Kara Herbert had nine blocks.
In other action, Carlmont Scots dropped
their season opener Wednesday to St.
Ignatius 27-25, 17-25, 25-20, 14-15, 15-11.

CSM
Continued from page 11
The one local among the three 6foot, 195-pound Dru Brown is a true
freshman out of Los Gatos. Last year,
he helmed the Wildcats into the
Central Coast Section Open Division
semifinals, eliminating Serra in the
quarterfinals along the way. Brown had
a breakout year last season as a high
school senior, totaling 2,301 passing
yards with an outstanding .674 completion percentage.
Browns offensive counterpart at
Los Gatos, running back Joey Wood,
is also in the mix at CSM. A 5-11,
225-pound freshman, Wood led the
Wildcats with 967 rushing yards with
14 touchdowns. It was his worst varsity season. In three years, Wood fell
just short of the 4,000-yard career
milestone, totaling 3,946 career rushing yards. The highlight was his junior season in 2013, when he ran for
1,964 yards.
The other two quarterbacks on roster
are Grant Dickerson and Bobby
Calmeyn. Dickserson is a 6-2, 210pound transfer sophomore out of
Davis High School. As a high school
junior in 2011 he was one of Davis
leading wide receivers before converting to quarterback as a senior.
Calmeyn is a 6-1, 195-pound freshman out of St.Viator-Illinois, where he
threw for 2,215 yards as a senior in
2013.
CSM also has to reinvent a receiver
corps that was a staple of the 2014 pro
style offense. The Bulldogs boasted
three sophomores with triple-digit
receiving yards last year, led by
University of South Alabama transfer
Kevin Kutchera, who grabbed 43
catches for 841 yards and seven touchdowns.
It's not very complex out there so
they should be able to hop right in,
Pollack said. It just becomes a physical thing, how mentally and physically tough they are.
This years new receiving crew features an array of intriguing local talent, headlined by 6-1, 215-pound
sophomore Johnny Niupalau, a 2009

graduate from San Mateo High School


who has a legendary place in Bearcats
lore. The 2009 season marks the last
time San Mateo won The Paw in its
annual rivalry game with Burlingame.
And Niupalau had the game-winning
touchdown catch in the 25-20 win.
San Mateo head coach Jeff Scheller
raved about the toughness of
Niupalau, who has missed the last two
years of his collegiate career while
carrying out a Mormon mission.
His work ethic hasnt changed, I
know that, Scheller said. When he
was a freshman, he wasnt very big he
was really emotional. He always wanted to do really well.
Just under Niupalau on CSM\s
alphabetical roster is Chikwado
Nzerem, a 6-foot, 175-pound freshman out of South City High School.
Nzerem never played a varsity down at
South City due to not making grades.
But his athleticism was never in
doubt, according to Warriors head
coach Jay Oca, who said Nzerem profiled as a wide receiver/defensive back
but also could have played quarterback.
He was an explosive receiver, Oca
said. Fast, quick, great route running.
This was a guy who was a great athlete
he just had all the skills.
The Bulldogs also have a full docket
of slot receivers with a tad of experience in sophomore Miles Willis, the
only returning player to have logged
any receptions last year. He had just
two, but they were both for touchdowns. He also had 19 carries for 154
yards. San Mateo High School graduate David Rango is also a returning
sophomore who logged three rushes
for 16 yards in 2014. True freshman
Manase Palu out of Burlingame is also
on roster.
At running back, the Bulldogs featured an array of weapons last season.
The lone returner, sophomore Michael
Allen out of Jefferson, logged 49 carries for 271 yards. He will be complimented by 5-7, 185-pound freshman
Isaiah Williams out of Luther BurbankSacramento; Karris Johnson, a 6-foot,
225-pound freshman out of CaliforniaSan Ramon; and Wood.
A vast majority of CSMs returning
experience is both sides of the line.
On offensive, the Bulldogs run a two-

49ers top
Chargers
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SANTA CLARA Colin Kaepernick donned a red cap and


sneakers, offered a quick side hug to third-string quarterback
Dylan Thompson, then took his spot on the sideline for the
San Francisco 49ers 14-12 win against San Diego on
Thursday night.
The 49ers will go into the regular season with signicant
questions about their offense after Kaepernick and the rst
team unit failed to score a touchdown on eight preseason
possessions, and they didnt play in this one. Their next test
will be in the season opener Sept. 14 against Minnesota.
Bruce Ellington showed he appears back to full strength
following a hamstring injury, while former Australian rugby
league star Jarryd Hayne made his case for a spot on the 53man roster.
Ellington caught a 70-yard touchdown pass on the third
snap of the game when he ran about 65 yards following a
quick slant. The Niners then converted a 2-point conversion
to Quinton Patton.
Hayne carried 10 times for 58 yards, caught a pair of passes for 17 yards, and returned three punts for 43 yards.
Tyrell Williams caught a 63-yard touchdown pass from
Brad Sorensen in the fourth quarter, but the Chargers missed
the 2-point conversion to tie the game.
San Diegos Richard Crawford had a 29-yard interception
return for a touchdown in the second quarter. He picked off a
pass by Thompson by jumping in front of DeAndrew White,
while Cordarro Law came untouched at Thompson through
the second-team Niners offensive line.
Ellington had a punt return of approximately 60 yards
called back for a penalty.
Hayne made a pretty cutback on a 19-yard run late in the
third quarter. On a 12-yard catch a few plays later, Hayne didnt budge when Lowell Rose tried to make a tackle on the
sideline. Hayne just lowered his shoulder as the defender went
down. That had his mother and sisters in smiles as they
watched from the stands at Levis Stadium.
Hayne also had a tackle on Javontee Herndon when he beat
a double-team on return coverage. Late in the game, Hayne
had his rst fair catch so far.
Coach Jim Tomsula said Sunday on the heels of a loss at
Denver that he had seen everything he needed to evaluate
Hayne, who emerged through a strong training camp as a
contender to make the 53-man roster, which will be
announced Saturday.
White took a punishing hit from Adrian Phillips returning
a punt 34 yards late in the second quarter.
Chargers backup quarterback Kellen Clemens was 10 of 17
for 64 yards.

American Pharaoh to
race in Breeders Cup
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK Triple Crown winner American Pharaoh will get


another chance to race before being retired, with the goal the $5
million Breeders Cup Classic next month.
Owner Ahmed Zayat said Thursday that racings 12th Triple
Crown winner and first in 37 years remains in top form after his
loss to Keen Ice in the Travers following eight straight victories.
The champ deserves another chance! Zayat tweeted.
After the Travers, an emotional Zayat was leaning against running again. He said his gut feeling was retirement.
But after a four-hour meeting with trainer Bob Baffert, assistant
Jimmy Barnes, jockey Victor Espinoza and his son and racing
manager Justin Zayat, the owner decided to move forward.
I have discussed all aspects of American Pharoahs race last
Saturday in the Travers and his condition since the race with
our whole team, Zayat said in a statement. He is now pointing to
the Breeders Cup Classic.
After the Travers, which drew a sellout crowd of 50,000 to
Saratoga Race Course, plus 15,000 to watch a morning gallop,
American Pharaoh traveled back to his home base at Del Mar
Racetrack in California.
He is scheduled to be paraded for the fans at the track this weekend, and then move to Santa Anita to resume training. Theres also
a chance he could travel to Churchill Downs in Louisville,
Kentucky for training in the weeks leading to the Classic at nearby Keeneland in Lexington, Kentucky.
Theres also a chance for a race before the Classic, but the call
would be up to Baffert.
I am very confident that this is the right decision for American
Pharoah. He loves to race. He has provided my family, racing fans,
and general sports fans with great thrills this year, Zayat said.

offensive line coach has to replace all five
starters from last season.
[The offensive line is] the big question
mark of the year. How are we going to get a
group of high school juniors and seniors,
many who have never played a (varsity)
game, ready? Walsh said. Were going to
have to grow up quickly.
Walsh said seniors Jack Muncy and PJ
Rossi each saw a bit of action on the line last
season, as did Kenny Meitz at tight end, so
there is some familiarity up front.
Its not like its going to be five JV guys,
Walsh said. We have some size, we have
some athleticism, we have no (significant)
experience.
If the offensive line can jell, the Padres
offense suddenly looks a lot more dangerous.
Leki Nunn, who started as a sophomore quarterback before moving to running back in
2014, will be back under center this season.
Hunter Bishop, who took over the quarterbacking duties from Nunn last year, moves out
to wide receiver.
Nunn accounted for more than 1,000 yards
of offense passing for 528 and rushing for
590. Walsh said he will need more of that type
of dual-threat danger for the Padres to have
success.
Were always going to be moving the
pocket. Were always going to run the double
wing. The combination of all of it is what
were seeking, Walsh said.
With the likes of Bishop, Brandon Monroe
and Rory Uniacke at receiver, Walsh believes
he has the weapons on the perimeter to make
plays. Its up to Nunn to get them the ball at
the right time.
We have up to five receivers who can really catch the ball, Walsh said. Leki has to get
the ball out there. He has to complete passes,
especially if we can throw a two-yard pass and
get a 15-yard gain.
The biggest move on the Serra offense sees
Kelepi Lataimua moving from being primarily a defensive back to primarily a running
back. Lataimua did rush for 354 yards, averaging 5.4 yards a carry and scored nine touchdowns, but appeared in only eight games in
2014 before breaking his collarbone. Itll
will be interesting to see what kind of numbers he puts up as primarily an offensive player.
While the offensive line may be in flux,
Walsh is much more confident in their defensive counterparts. Billy Tuitavake, who will
also see time at fullback, Kwami Jones and
Fabian Tufono all are returning starters.
[Tuitavake] is our spiritual leader, Walsh
said.
Walsh is also excited to see what Antonio

HOME GAMES IN CAPS

Mafi, a sophomore defensive lineman, brings


to the table at 6-1, 340.
I think the skys the limit for him, Walsh
said. Hes got a lot to learn. At his size, his
athleticism, Im happy we have him for the
next three years.
The Padres have to find a pair of reliable
linebackers for their 4-2-5 system, but the
defensive backfield should have the ability to
pick up some of the slack. Lataimua will
undoubtedly see some time at one of the cornerback spots, as will Jovan Johnson, who
filled in last year once Lataimua went down
with injury.
But the real leader of the back end of the
defense is safety TC Lavulo. Ladislao
Rodriguez also returns and saw some time in
the Padres three-safety rotation last season.
The Padres wont have a lot of time to make
all the pieces fit and still reach their goal of
winning a WCAL title. Their preseason will
certainly answer a lot of questions about their
ability to compete for a league title as they
open the season tonight against De La Salle
before hosting Notre Dame-Sherman Oaks
next week a pair of state powers.
They also open the season knowing exactly when the 2015 season ends Nov. 14
against Valley Christian.
Were all in a unique situation. We have
to deal with it. We dont have the luxury of just
hoping to improve and maybe sneak into the
playoffs through the backdoor. We know
Nov. 14 is our last game, Walsh said. But if
there is a WCAL (championship) banner
hanging from the gym, thats one of the best
seasons weve ever had.

Raiders competitive
in loss to Seahawks
By Tim Booth
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SEATTLE If there was such an award,


Seattle Seahawks rookie Tyler Lockett
would be the clear MVP of the preseason.
Fellow Seattle rookie Frank Clark would
be right behind him.
Lockett scored his third touchdown of the
preseason on a 63-yard reception from
Russell Wilson, Clark had a sack and forced
fumble on Oakland QB Matt McGloin that
Jordan Hill recovered for a touchdown, and
the Seahawks closed out the preseason with
a 31-21 win over the Raiders.
After returning a kickoff 103 yards for a
touchdown and a punt 67 yards for another
score earlier in the preseason, Lockett
flashed his straight-ahead speed as a wide
receiver. On Seattles second offensive play,
Lockett gave Oakland cornerback Keith
McGill a brief hesitation, then sprinted
free, catching the only pass thrown by
Wilson and outrunning the defense for the
early touchdown. Lockett was drafted by
Seattle for his ability as a returner on special teams, but will likely be in the wide
receiver rotation when the season begins.
Kasen Williams added a 15-yard touch-

down reception from wide receiver/quarterback B. J. Daniels in the third quarter,


Thomas Rawls had a 6-yard TD run and
Steven Hauschka added a 55-yard field goal
after his game-winning 60-yarder last
Saturday against San Diego.
McGloin recovered from the fumble to
throw a pair of touchdowns and at least raise
the question if he is the better backup
option over Christian Ponder. McGloin was
16 of 24 for 186 yards and threw TD passes
of 6 yards to Seth Roberts and 28 yards to
Rod Streater.
In limited action, Ponder was 7 of 11 for
99 yards, returning late in the fourth quarter.
Wilson was the only significant star on
either team to see the playing field.
Marshawn Lynch, Jimmy Graham, Richard
Sherman, Cliff Avril, Michael Bennett and
Bobby Wagner spent the night chewing
sunflower seeds on the Seattle sideline.
Derek Carr, Amari Cooper, Michael Crabtree
and Khalil Mack were all spectators on
Oaklands side.
Seattle did go with its starting offensive
line for the first series and Dion Bailey
the starter at strong safety with Kam
Chancellor holding out also played in the
first quarter.

Murray rallies for Open win


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK Before they stepped on


court, there was nothing to suggest Andy
Murray would have any trouble against
Adrian Mannarino in the U.S. Opens second round.
Murray, after all, is seeded No. 3, owns
two major championships including at
Flushing Meadows in 2012, and had reached
at least the quarternals at the last 18 Grand
Slam tournaments hed entered. Mannarino,
meanwhile, is ranked 35th, has never won a
tour-level title, and only three times in his
career has even managed to win more than
one match at a major.
So it certainly came as a surprise when, in
Thursdays very rst game in Arthur Ashe
Stadium, Mannarino broke Murray. About
an hour later, Mannarino slammed an overhead winner to grab the rst set. And 45
minutes after that, a serve-and-volley winner gave the Frenchman the second set, too.

Murray is nothing if not resilient,


though. Despite looking as if he might be
ready to wilt on another steamy day at
Flushing Meadows two more mid-match
retirements, including by 28th-seeded Jack
Sock of the United States, raised the total to
12 in the mens draw so far Murray put
together his eighth career comeback from a
two-set decit and beat Mannarino 5-7, 4-6,
6-1, 6-3, 6-1.
It gave Murray his 35th consecutive victory in a second-round Grand Slam match.
Mannarino, a lefty, delivered 12 of the
matchs rst 14 forehand winners and
repeatedly found success with drop shots.
But his play eventually dipped, while
Murray really cleaned up his own act after
the rough start: He went from making 21
unforced errors in the rst two sets to only
14 the rest of the way.

NEW YORK The nearly three year wait


since Steven Spielbergs last movie (2012s
Lincoln) comes to an end this October with
the spy thriller Bridge of Spies.
Good news for moviegoers: There wont be
another gap like that for a while. Having just
locked Bridge of Spies, Spielberg is already
editing his next film, Roald Dahls The
BFG, and is in pre-production on Ready
Player One, a sci-fi adventure from Ernest
Clines best-seller.
Its a pace that Spielberg, 68, says he plans
to continue.
Im doing a long stretch of directing over
the next several years, Spielberg says. We
put our last child into college. Number seven
went to college last week and (wife Kate

Capshaw) and I are enjoying the empty nest. It gives


her a chance to get more

A season strong in LGBT dramas


By Jake Coyle
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK Ellen Page was


first approached about the true-life
gay rights drama Freeheld when
she was 21, just coming off her
breakthrough in Juno. It was seven
years before the Supreme Court
ruled that same-sex marriage is a
right, and six before Page, herself,
came out.
It really did align with an internal
process I was going through with my
own identity, with my own struggles
of being closeted, says Page of
Freeheld. Its lovely to be part of
a film thats reflecting upon why we
need the Supreme Court ruling and
why we need to continue to strive to
equality. I think the film is reflecting
a time when that change is happening.
As much as change is in the air in
2015, its also on the screen. Though
Hollywoods track record when it
comes to telling the stories of LGBT
lives is far from gleaming, this fall
season boasts one of the richest and
most varied batch of films yet to
dramatize the struggles of gay and
transgendered people.
Freeheld (in theaters Oct. 2) is
about Laurel Hester (Julianne
Moore) and her domestic partner,
Stacie Andree (Page). When Hester,
an Ocean County, N.J. police officer,
began dying of terminal lung cancer
in 2005, she appealed to the county
Board of Freeholders to allow her
pension to go to Andree. Though it
would have been automatic for a
married couple, the board initially
refused.
Eight years after a documentary
short on Hester won an Oscar,
screenwriter
Ron
Nyswaner

Julianne Moore and Ellen Page star in Freeheld, which will be in theaters Oct. 2.
(Philadelphia) has penned the
dramatization, directed by Peter
Sollett and co-starring Steve Carell
and Michael Shannon.
Todd Haynes Carol (out Nov.
20), based on Patricia Highsmiths
novel, is about the illicit love affair
between two women (Cate
Blanchett, Rooney Mara) in the conservative 1950s. A lushly detailed
period film, thick with an atmosphere of socially enforced repression, the film rides a wave of praise
from the Cannes Film Festival,
where Mara shared in the best
actress award.
Blanchett, in an interview at

Cannes, said that while love between


two lesbians is of course central to
Carol, its ultimately about love,
regardless of gender.
Theres something Romeo and
Juliet-esque about it, Blanchett
said. Theres a universality to the
love story that moves it out of the
niche. Its about the perspective or
the feeling of being in love for the
first time. And, yes, its not immaterial that there are two women at the
center of it. But at certain moments,
it kind of is.
Also in November is The Danish
Girl, directed by Tom Hooper (The
Kings Speech). Based on the 1920s

Copenhagen novel by David


Ebershoff and starring Eddie
Redmayne, its a fictionalized
account of Lili Elbe, among the first
to undergo sex reassignment surgery.
While that trio of films is expected
to play major roles in awards season,
there are others in the mix, too.
Roland Emmerich, taking a break
from the disaster spectacles like
White House Down and The Day
After Tomorrow, depicts one of the
most pivotal moments in the gay
rights movement in Stonewall
(Sept. 25), a drama set around the
1969 Stonewall Inn riots in New
Yorks Greenwich Village.

And months after the celebrated


transformation of Caitlyn Jenner,
About Ray (Sept. 18) is about a
teenagers (Elle Fanning) transition
from female to male, and how her
family reacts.
It can be overly optimistic to take
any seasonal trend as a sign of wider
industry progress. Studies have confirmed that Hollywood continues to
lag in representing the diversity of its
audiences. Researchers at the
University of Southern Californias
Annenberg school recently found
that among the 4,610 speaking characters in the 100 top-grossing films
in 2014, only 19 were lesbian, gay or
bisexual. None were transgender.
Many of these films also struggled
to make it to the big screen. It took
Carol almost two decades to finally get made; screenwriter Phyllis
Nagy wrote her first draft in 1996.
Equality for LGBT people also, of
course, continues to be a divisive
issue for some across the country.
Page recently confronted presidential candidate Sen. Ted Cruz at the
Iowa State Fair on his views on gay
rights.
But in a year marked by significant
advancement for gay rights, many,
like Page, are buoyed by the upswing
in this falls films a crop of
movies that add more lesbian and
transgender stories to the indelible,
but
largely
male
movies
(Philadelphia,
Milk,
Brokeback Mountain) that have
come before.
I wish there were more gay stories and I do think that thats happening, she says. That does seem like
something thats getting a lot
stronger, thankfully a voice thats
getting stronger, a community thats
getting stronger.

Continued from page 17
be there to tell this story, not to be a fanboy.
Thanks to those fanboys and girls (many of
whom are now men and women), theres no
more anticipated movie this fall than The
Force Awakens (due out Dec. 18). The rollout
began months ago, whetting the rabid appetites
of Star Wars fans with an IV drip of footage,
still pictures and trailers.
Enthusiasm, which might have waned after
the disappointment of the last trilogy, is again
reaching lightspeed, thanks to promising new
elements (like the rolling droid BB-8), the
return of original cast members and Abrams,
himself, already the trusted hero of another
galaxy: Star Trek.
Abrams is the New Hope of a franchise (now
a Walt Disney Co. property) already preparing
to fire out a meteor storm of sequels and spinoffs. Billions are at stake, but the Force, they
say, is strong. Star Wars Episode Seven is
expected to surpass $500 million worldwide in
its opening weekend alone.
It almost wasnt to be. Intending to focus on

WEEKEND JOURNAL
original material, Abrams initially balked at
inheriting Star Wars, but was persuaded by
producer Kathleen Kennedy, president of
Lucasfilm.
She and I were talking about what this world
would be, this universe, nearly 40 years after
Episode Six and the idea that these characters
would have lived on. And yet there would have
been this new generation that may not know at
all who these characters were, or had heard of
them but not necessarily believed that they were
real, says Abrams. It felt like such fertile
ground.
That means a mix of familiar, if now older,
faces (Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher, Mark
Hamill, Peter Mayhew as Chewbacca) and new
ones (among them Oscar Isaac, Adam Driver,
Max von Sydow) that will tether The Force
Awakens to the original films.
It was made with extreme secrecy, always
under the threat of leaks, and under the watchful eyes of Star Wars devotees. Fans have dissected every frame, analyzing everything from
the physics of a briefly glimpsed lightsaber to
the interior design of a TIE fighter.
Working in the midst of that extreme passion,
Abrams says, was more incentive than pressure
cooker.
It is on the one hand incredibly and understandably stressful because youve got the

anticipation and expectation that comes with


this world that George created, he says. And
on the other hand, its something that I would
never complain about or look at as a negative
because it is excitement and anticipation and
passion for this world that got me excited not
just to be involved with this movie but be
involved with moviemaking.
The Force is a mystical, invisible power, but
the stuff of Star Wars the matter of its
galaxy is tactile: the melancholy horizon of
Tatooine; the lush forest of the Ewok planet
Endor; the spilled innards of a Tauntuan. These
are the tangible qualities that lent Lucas films
an exotic, hand-crafted realism.
Realizing this, Abrams endeavored to marry
modern CGI tools with old-school effects and
real sets. That strategy, he says, paid off in capturing the spirit of Star Wars.
I cant think of something that we did that
doesnt look and feel more authentic that I wish
we had done differently, says Abrams.
Wherever possible, whenever possible, we
tried to do things as much in camera as we
could. And that meant that a lot of artists on that
side of things were building things not with pixels but with wood and paint and foam and actually constructing sets that we could have done
in post. It gave the actors the actual location, the
actual sunlight or stage light something to

THE DAILY JOURNAL


bounce off of, and the movie a feeling of being
in an actual location and not an artificial one.
Though that meant some hot days in the Abu
Dhabi sun and the occasional studio set difficulties (production was shut down when a
hydraulic door fell on Ford, fracturing his leg),
it was worth it to Abrams.
It was really nice to not have to also worry
about: Will that ship look good on camera?
Because we actually had it. We were actually
filming it, he says.
Such an approach was a way to keep the fantasy grounded, and it typifies the entire production: a melding of new and old, fantastical and
authentic.
Yet as much as Abrams tried to keep his inner
fanboy at bay, he did grant one marvel: seeing Fisher, Hamill and Ford slide back into their
iconic characters.
What was incredible from my point of view
was how apparently easily they flipped back
into these roles, says Abrams. I knew for a
fact, for example, that Harrison Ford was going
to be in this movie, but I couldnt be certain that
Han Solo would be. Meaning, I hadnt seen Han
Solo return after nearly 40 years, either. And it
wasnt until we got on set that I got my answer.
It was a remarkable thing to see how effortlessly Harrison Ford became Han Solo again.

Disney unveils Star Wars toys amid marketing blitz


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK The release of the new Star


Wars movie may still be months off, but
Disney is unleashing its full marketing
Force behind the launch of hundreds of toys
and other items related to the film.
The massive marketing blitz, which Disney
has named Force Friday, spans all kinds of
media and included an 18-hour global unboxing streamed live on YouTube. Meanwhile,
major toy retailers planned to be open and
hold special events when the toys first became
available just after midnight Friday.

SPIELBERG
Continued from page 18
for superhero movies.
AP: What attracted you to Bridge of
Spies?
Spielberg: Ive always wanted to make a
spy movie. This is not James Bond. Only
James Bond can be James Bond. Ive always
been fascinated with the entertainment value
of the James Bond spy series of movies, as
well as the serious John le Carre spy novels,
especially the Martin Ritt movie The Spy
Who Came in From the Cold. Also spy pictures like The Quiller Memorandum and
The Ipcress File, and Torn Curtain by
Hitchcock in the 60s.
AP: Were you interested in making a film
set during the Cold War?
Spielberg: I lived through the Cold War
and I was very aware of the possibility of
walking down the street and seeing a white
flash and being atomized. I was very, very

The marketing push behind Star Wars:


Episode VII - The Force Awakens, is unique
because its so far ahead of the movies U.S.
release, 116 days to be exact. But analysts say
it can work because Star Wars is such a popular franchise.
Leaked images of action figures of characters that have not even hit the big screen
like Sarco Plank, some kind of alien desert
nomad that has only been glimpsed in a
Vanity Fair on-set shoot are only likely to
fuel consumer demand, says Steve Pasierb,
CEO of the Toy Industry Association.
Its pretty rare, but in the age of social

media, you can get those characters out and


create buzz around these things in ways that
you couldnt in the past, Pasierb says.
Theres something easy to tap into, which is
the Star Wars mystique which is some 30
years old.
Industry analysts at PiperJaffrey say they
expect some $3 billion worth of Star Wars
merchandise will be sold this year and that
sales next year could be even larger.
Even in a non-movie year, Star Wars merchandise has consistently sold well $2 billion annually around the world, according to
Pasierb. So its not so far-fetched that Disney

will exceed that in the publicity-blitz filled


weeks ahead of premiere of the first Star Wars
movie since Episode III in 2005.
Walt Disney Co. is fanning the flames of its
Lucasfilm unit by making special use of the
network of YouTube talent that it acquired
when it bought Maker Studios for upwards of
$500 million last year. It arranged for 14
Maker stars around the globe to open new
merchandise in live Web videos starting
Wednesday afternoon. The event included a
splashy special appearance Thursday morning
on Good Morning America, the variety
news program of Disney-owned ABC.

aware of what a tentative and insecure time it


was, especially for young people. Its something that made a big impression on me as a
kid. We were shown instructional 16mm films
of what to do in the event of the air raid sirens
going off or seeing the flash and ducking and
covering under your desk and holding, hopefully, a very large book over your head.
AP: Do you see a connection between
that time and today?
Spielberg: Theres so much relevance
between the late 50s and today. We fly drones
today; they flew U2 spy planes over Soviet
Russia in the 50s. Our story is also about the
shooting down of Gary Powers U2 and the
apprehension of a Soviet spy working in this
country for over a decade: Rudolph Abel. And
the negotiator a fish-out-of-water an
insurance attorney who used to be the associate prosecutor at the Nuremberg war-crime
trials who was called upon to defend an
alleged Soviet spy, and the kind of charged
atmosphere he was willing to endure to see
justice served. Its a story about a very righteous, principled individual and for Tom
Hanks, its right up his alley.

AP: This is your fourth film with him.


Spielberg: Every collaboration is better
than the one before. Were having a great time
together.
AP: You caused a stir two years ago when
you predicted Hollywood was headed
toward an implosion because of the overabundance of mega-budget movies. Do you
still feel that way?
Spielberg: I do. I still feel that way. We
were around when the Western died and there
will be a time when the superhero movie goes
the way of the Western. It doesnt mean there
wont be another occasion where the Western
comes back and the superhero movie someday
returns. Of course, right now the superhero
movie is alive and thriving. Im only saying
that these cycles have a finite time in popular
culture. There will come a day when the
mythological stories are supplanted by some
other genre that possibly some young filmmaker is just thinking about discovering for
all of us.
AP: Were you surprised by the success of
Jurassic World, on which you were an
executive producer?

Spielberg: Im back in the dinosaur business, it appears. We promised them more teeth
and they rewarded us for it. I would have been
ecstatic if we had done what the town was
expecting, which was a $100 million threeday weekend. That would have just made my
whole year. But the fact that it did over twice
what the prognosticators were predicting, it
just blew me away.
AP: Bridge of Spies is the first film in
years youve made without John Williams
composing the score.
Spielberg: Johnny Williams will be back to
do The BFG. Weve only not worked
together twice in 42 years. The first one was
The Color Purple in 1985 and the second
time was because Johnny had a small medical
procedure that precluded him from writing
and scoring my movie in the window that he
was going to do it. Hes fine, hes 100 percent
back to work on Star Wars, but it sadly precluded him from working on Bridge of
Spies. I was able to work with Thomas
Newman, who Im a huge fan of. This is just
a blip and were both sad about it, but were
excited to get back together for BFG now.

of the concerns identified as priorities by
the candidates, as they compete on an allmail ballot due Election Day, Nov. 3.
The big issue is just staying funded,
and looking at the future, said Salazar,
who has lived in the city for nearly 15
years. We do need to think strategically
about how we continue to be successful.
The city has enjoyed financial growth
over recent years, due to increased sales
and property tax which hit record highs
last year.
Yet still, Salazar said he would like to
diversify the citys portfolio of assets,
which would make its financial health
less susceptible to fluctuations in the
economy.
Things are better now, but we are
never completely out of the woods, he
said.
OConnell and Medina though felt the
ability of the San Brunos pipes, sewer
lines, streets and other infrastructure to
handle the demand of a city which has
grown precipitously since its incorporation nearly a century ago is a foremost
concern to residents and officials.
Its time to upgrade our system, said
Medina, who used to work in the citys
Public Works Department. But we dont
have the money to do that right now.
Medina advocated to update the way
officials think about addressing infrastructure concerns, and focus on broadening the skill sets of city employees to do
a variety of maintenance tasks, rather
than outsourcing the work to other companies.
He said it is not sustainable for the city
to continue raising utility rates to fix the
citys pipes, sewer and streets, which is
why a comprehensive review of the way
the system is addressed is in order.
We have to think about how to do
things differently, he said.
OConnell, a San Bruno native, agreed

said though
Marty Medina sheShe
felt the recently

increase
structure
was done by the
council in a thoughtful fashion, and an
opportunity remains
for officials to reconsider the rates hikes
in the future if they
Irene OConnell are considered too
aggressive.
Salazar though said
he opposed the new
rate structure when
the council considered the issue, and
wishes he would have
advocated more passionately for his
beliefs.
Michael Salazar Looking back, we
could have been
more conservative, he said.
He noted though the rate hikes, to his
knowledge, have not forced many residents to move out of San Bruno due to
unaffordability, as many have feared
when they were approved.
But some residents are struggling to
afford the general cost of living in San
Bruno, said Medina, as families throughout San Mateo County are struggling to
cope with the expense of housing.
Its a huge problem, not just in San
Bruno, said Medina.
Medina said he is unsure though that
the city can move swiftly enough to
address the needs of residents struggling
to pay market rates for housing.
OConnell agreed, and said Gov. Jerry
Browns decision to dissolve redevelop-

ment agencies has stripped cities of a


valuable asset officials had in addressing
issues such as affordable housing at a
local level.
Salazar agreed it is hard for city government to affect what is a regional issue,
but noted there are smaller policy steps
city officials can take, such as loosening
restrictions on residents building second
units on their property which could create
additional space in a tight housing market.
The city is still relatively affordable
though, as compared to some neighboring
communities, said Salazar.
But San Bruno has become a target
investment location for large corporations
recently, noted Medina, who identified
the recent purchase of the YouTube headquarters and the Shops at Tanforan as an
indicator of the citys potential economic
viability.
As the citys real estate becomes more
lucrative, Medina said he took issue with
the councils decision to offer what some
have called a sweetheart deal to a developer who has promised to build a hotel
near the intersection of El Camino Real
and Interstate 380.
Salazar said he opposed the council
spearheading the effort to develop a hotel
at the site, because he did not feel officials had the requisite knowledge for real
estate investment.
I didnt think the city had expertise,
he said.
OConnell though defended the councils decision to offer what is the equivalent of an estimated $4 million worth of
incentives to OTO Development to build
a 152-room hotel on 1.5 acres of vacant
property near Jacks Restaurant.
She said officials strived to find
builders who were interested in the site,
and the subsidies were required to make
the deal possible.
She also noted the council has not
given final approval to the project.

City Hall Park, which was not on the


original list of choices.
Neighbors near Arguello, however,
expressed strong opposition against the
idea of closing off part of the park for
dogs.
Moving the dogs from the athletic
fields to their own dedicated setting has
been a long time coming. The shared situation was not ideal, Parks and
Recreation Director Christine Boland
said Thursday about dogs running free at
Burton and Highlands parks.
The park at City Hall will also have a
walking path to the library and picnic
tables and benches for those to use who
do not have dogs, Boland said.
Dogs will now have two places to
roam free in the city as a former childrens playground area at Heather
School on Melendy Drive allows dogs
off leash.

The area is currently underutilized for


its intended purpose due to its isolated
location, lack of amenities and maintenance, however. The school has also
decided to lock the park in the mornings
which is out of the citys control, Boland
said.
The citys municipal code gives it the
authority to allow dogs to roam free in
parks without a public hearing or council approval.
The council approved spending up to
$80,000 to enclose about 75 percent of
City Hall Park for a temporary off-leash
program, although some on the council
said they hoped the park may become a
permanent playground for the citys
thousands of dogs.

BROWN
Continued from page 1
said in an email that the proposal was offered
after numerous meetings with Democrats and
Republicans.
It includes sensible reforms and sufficient
revenue to improve our roads, bridges, public
transit and trade corridors all vital to boosting quality-of-life and economic competitiveness, Lacey said.
The Democratic governor called a special
session on transportation funding in June but
until Thursday there was little indication of a
concrete proposal backed by the administration for how to pay for an estimated $59 billion backlog in repairs.

SEWAGE
Continued from page 1
that this doesnt happen again, that they do
take this conduct seriously, said Deputy
District Attorney Megan Wilkins, who noted
prosecutors worked to resolve the case instead
of taking it to trial.
Les attorney Sanaz Nikaein said her client
was extremely cooperative and regrettably,
unknowingly hired an unlicensed contractor
who performed faulty repairs to the sewer
pipe.
This was one of those very unfortunate situations where I think a language barrier

Browns plan includes concessions sought


by Republicans such as requiring regular
updates on progress toward highway
improvements, streamlined environmental
reviews for infrastructure repairs and extending public-private partnerships for construction. Still, he did not appear to yet have support needed from a two-thirds majority in
each house of the state Legislature.
Assembly Minority Leader Kristin Olsen,
R-Riverbank, said in a statement that she is
happy the proposal embraces strategies for
quickly building better roads.
Unfortunately, the administrations ideas
call for more than doubling the vehicle registration fees and raising the price of fuel on all
Californians we disagree and think
Californians have paid enough, she said.
Lawmakers in both parties believe the
states transportation tax structure is out of

date. They also agree the state cant keep relying on a gas tax that hasnt been increased in
20 years and lets thousands of electric car
drivers off the hook for maintaining the roads
they drive on.
The current gas tax rises and falls each year
based on state projections. Browns proposal
would set it at a fixed rate based on a 5-year
average then add index increases to the consumer price index. It also calls for an 11-centper-gallon increase on diesel fuel.
Transportation, business and transit advocacy groups responded enthusiastically to the
proposal, urging lawmakers to reach a compromise before the Legislature is set to leave
Sacramento on Sept. 11. Matt Cate, executive
director of the California State Association of
Counties, called it a balanced approach that
incorporates ideas from many groups.
It is a solid framework that should serve as

the basis of a negotiated compromise, he said


in a statement.
Some fellow Democrats remained skeptical. Sen. Jim Beall, D-San Jose, who introduced his own transportation funding package
earlier this year, called Browns plan a discussion being floated, rather than a proposal, and
said it is being reviewed to determine its fiscal competence.
It would create additional revenue but not
enough, he said.
Browns outline also includes:
$1.6 billion annually for state highway
improvements;
$1.15 billion annually for local streets and
roads, including $100 million for environmentally friendly improvements such as bike
lanes and sidewalks; and
$400 million a year in grants to local governments for transit.

played a role, Nikaein said, adding her client


had standing to litigate against many of the
claims. However, she said, he wanted to take
responsibility especially for dumping in the
Bay and he just wanted to do his part and
resolve the case as quickly as possible.
Nikaein noted Le had only leased the
Pilgrim building since about 2010 and couldnt comment on whether they would go after
the illegal contractor who Le knew as a
customer who had a van and would always
arrive in uniform.
According to the complaint, inspectors were
first tipped when someone complained of a
sewage odor and Belmont city officials traced
it to black plastic pipe that was partially covered by newly poured concrete. During
inspection, county environmental health offi-

cials sampled the brown substance and determined it was human feces and toilet paper
leaking into a storm drain that discharged into
the Bay. Le stated he paid a man named
Luis $200 to fix the pipe, according to the
complaint.
Belmont officials reported the leak to the
state Water Resources Control Board, however, neither the city, prosecutors nor Nikaein
have apparently heard back.
Regarding the sewage, obviously our concern is to protect the environment. That storm
drain was entering into the San Francisco Bay
so our concern is obviously water quality and
fish and wildlife that are in the water. So we
take it seriously, Wilkins said.
Le agreed to pay $25,000 for the leak and
$2,500 for each code violation.

Many of the code violations, Nikaein


argued, were minor such as failing to properly display permits.
Still, in one January 2013 instance, inspectors noted vermin droppings and a dead
mouse at Pilgrim Kitchen, Wilkins said.
Nikaein said that was an isolated incident
and Le is committed to making improvements.
Mr. Le took appropriate steps to basically
ensure there would be no such thing again,
Nikaein said. He still has people that come in
and he pays for them once or twice a month to
make sure there are no rodents in the facility.
