Caltrain officials unanimously

approved moving ahead with a patchwork funding agreement that includes
significantly relying on the federal
government to support its nearly $2
billion electrification project a massive undertaking proponents say has
vital environmental and operational
benefits.
Caltrains Board of Directors is on a
tight schedule to secure funds if it wants
to stay on track to award design and
construction contracts in the comings
months that will enable its growing
commuter base to ride electric trains by
2020.
The board met Thursday morning to
approve an updated agreement with its
various local, regional, state and federal funding partners after staff realized
the project cost had grown considerably from just $1.5 billion a few years
ago.
While the cost increases are certainly challenging and disconcerting, its

scholarships, a community

and a laundry list of
capital improvements
are among the projects
likely soon to be
financed through the foundation charged with allocating
restitution funds paid in the wake of the San Bruno gas line
explosion.
The San Bruno Community Foundation, which manages
the roughly $70 million paid by Pacific Gas and Electric
after a pipeline explosion obliterated a portion of the
Crestmoor neighborhood in 2010, discussed future projects
during a monthly meeting Wednesday, May 4.
The foundation will soon take control of the lump sum of
money, currently held by the San Bruno City Council, and
begin meeting its obligation to spend the money in ways
that benefit the community.
The foundation has set aside roughly $1 million of the
$68.5 million paid by PG&E to finance an initial round of
community programs, while the board members discuss
larger projects which could be built with a bulk of the rest of
the money.

over lost Dr. Seuss library book
TECUMSEH, Mich. A Michigan
couple who faced jail after they borrowed a novel and a Dr. Seuss book

Cathy and Melvin Duren of
Tecumseh were charged with failure to
return rental property and a judge told
them in April that they faced up to 93

The charges arose because the

The shelter relies on donations and

according to the Ketchikan Visitors

visitors that year.

Chris Alvarado, the shelters services manager, said he sees why tourists
come to the shelter, which is open
from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. six days a week.
Sometimes some of the stores are
not open really early, (so) sometimes
people will come up here and get coffee
and just hang out, Alvarado said.

said. This door is open for anybody

Californias coming
tobacco, vaping laws
By Alison Noon
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SACRAMENTO Gov. Jerry Brown, a Democrat, has

buy tobacco from 18 to 21, regulate electronic cigarettes and
restrict tobacco use in various other ways.

FDA will require e-cigarettes

WASHINGTON The federal government announced sweeping new

rules Thursday for electronic cigarettes
that will for the first time require the
devices and their ingredients to be
reviewed, a mandate that could offer
protection for consumers and upend a
multibillion dollar industry that has
gone largely unregulated.
Before brands are allowed to stay in
the market, regulators will check the ecigarettes design and the liquid nicotine they contain. The fast-growing
devices have found a foothold with
teenagers.
Millions of kids are being introduced to nicotine every year, a new
generation hooked on a highly addictive chemical, Health and Human

Services Secretary Sylvia Burwell said.

We cannot let the enormous progress
weve made toward a tobacco-free generation be undermined by products that

The rules issued by the Food and
Drug Administration will also extend
long-standing restrictions on traditional cigarettes to a host of other
products, including e-cigarettes,
hookah tobacco, pipe tobacco and
nicotine gels. Minors would be banned
from buying the products.
Battery-powered e-cigarettes turn the
nicotine into an inhalable vapor. They
lack the chemicals and tars of burning
tobacco, but the cigarettes have not
been extensively studied, and theres

students report using e-cigarettes, up

more than 900 percent over the last
five years, according to federal figures.
Beginning in August, retailers will be
prohibited from selling tobacco products to anyone under 18, placing them
in vending machines or distributing
free samples. While nearly all states
already ban sales of e-cigarettes to
minors, federal officials said they will
be able to impose stiffer penalties and
deploy more resources for enforcement.
For now, e-cigarette users may not
see big changes. Companies have two
years to submit their information to
the FDA and another year while the
agency reviews it. The review process
applies to products introduced after
2007, which includes nearly all of
them. Government officials said the
reviews are critical to taming the wild
west marketplace.

Around the state

Alicia, 18, was shot and choked. Her
body was found under a mattress in an
alley in September 1988. It took a
long time. By the grace of God it happened. Its such a relief.
Prosecutors will seek the death
penalty during the second phase of
trial scheduled to start May 12.

The 21-to-buy restriction and rules limiting where people

can vape apply to everyone in the state of California except
military personnel with an identification card. The bill stalled
for six months while veterans organizations and Republican
lawmakers fought to include the exemption. The new laws
take effect on June 9.

NOT THE FIRST

In April, Hawaii became the first state in the nation to raise
the legal age to 21. More than 100 local jurisdictions around
the country also have made the change, including New York,
Chicago and San Francisco.

WHO OPPOSES IT?

Tobacco companies have fought for years to restrict sales,
which could result in millions of dollars in lost revenue, but
they have kept a low profile during the public debate this year.
Electronic cigarette companies, which have a growing market, also opposed the legislation. Some activists see e-cigarettes as a path to quit smoking traditional cigarettes and
oppose the states move to classify vapor paraphernalia as
tobacco products.

CAN IT BE BLOCKED?
Yes, though its unlikely. Tobacco companies and their
allies have considered a referendum campaign in which theyd
ask voters to overturn some or all of the laws. But they have
a narrow window until Aug 2 to file a petition with the state,
get it approved, gather 366,000 valid signatures and turn
them in to county clerks. If they get enough valid signatures,
voters would decide in November. It would also be costly.

ARE E-CIGS ILLEGAL?

No. Vaporizers, vape liquid and other electronic smoking
paraphernalia are now considered tobacco products under
California law. That means, like traditional tobacco products,
e-cigarettes will be prohibited in many spaces like workplaces, restaurants, bars and movie theaters.

Police seeking man suspected
of following children home
Police are seeking a man with messy, long white hair and
a mustache who may have been following a 17-year-old girl
and her 5-year-old brother Wednesday in South San
Francisco.
The girl and her brother were walking home at 3:30 p.m.
from the 500 block of Spruce Avenue when the man began
following them, according to police.
The suspect did not say anything to the two children, but
appeared to following them intentionally. When the children got home in the 400 block of Baden Avenue, the man
drove away, police said.
Police are describing the suspect as a Native American
man about 60 years old who has tan skin and blotches on
his cheeks.
Police are describing the vehicle as a white, two-door
Honda sedan with a hood with peeling paint and a broken
taillight.
Anyone with information about the case is asked to call
the South San Francisco Police Department at (650) 8778900 or via an anonymous tip line at (650) 952-2244.

Missing man found safe

An at-risk man who was reported missing in Half Moon
Bay on Wednesday morning was found safe, San Mateo
County Sheriffs Office said Thursday.
Jack Spencer, 67, was reported missing at about 9:30
a.m. and was considered at risk because of medical and
vision problems.
The Sheriffs Office announced Thursday morning that
Spencer had been found and was home safe.

Woman arrested on
suspicion of trying to set RV on fire
Police arrested a 31-year-old East Palo Alto woman on
suspicion of arson after a witness reported seeing her try to
set an unoccupied recreational vehicle on fire on Sunday in
Palo Alto.
Ursula Zavala was booked into the county jail on suspicion of arson, as well as a misdemeanor probation violation and two other misdemeanors, Palo Alto police said.
At 12:07 p.m. Sunday, a dispatcher received a call from a
person who reported seeing Zavala light a piece of paper
and place it in the wheel well of a 1985 Toyota motor home
located in the 700 block of El Camino Real.
After Zavala allegedly walked away from the motor home,
the witness extinguished the fire, which caused minor damage to the wheel well.
The witness followed Zavala at a distance and officers
arrested her at 95 University Ave. a short time later.
Police said they do not know whether Zavala knows the
owner of the RV.
Police are investigating whether Zavala also lit an unoccupied 1991 Honda Accord on fire at 10:34 a.m. that day in
the parking lot of Palo Alto High School at 50 Embarcadero
Road.
The fire damaged the hood and front windshield area of the
car, police said. Investigators are also checking to see
whether Zavala set fire to other vehicles in Palo Alto or surrounding cities recently.

House Speaker Ryan

refuses to back Trump
By Erica Werner
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON House Speaker

Paul Ryan is refusing to support
Donald Trump as the Republican nominee for president, insisting Thursday
that the businessman must do more to
unify the GOP.
The surprise declaration from Ryan
on CNNs The Lead amounted to a
stunning rebuke of Trump from the
Republican Partys highest-ranking
officeholder.
Im just not ready to do that at this
point. Im not there right now, the
Wisconsin Republican said. And I
hope to. And I want to, but I think
what is required is that we unify this

for the American
people,
Trump
said. They have
been treated so
Donald Trump badly for so long
that it is about time
for politicians to put them first!
Even in an election cycle thats
exposed extreme and very public divisions within the GOP, Ryans decision
to withhold his support from Trump
was remarkable, as the GOPs top
elected leader, second in line to the
presidency, turned his back on his
own partys presumptive nominee.
Ryan had maintained his silence
since Trump effectively clinched the
nomination with a commanding win
in Indiana on Tuesday that forced his

two remaining rivals from the race.

Other Republican leaders, including
Senate Majority Mitch McConnell,
offered their grudging support for
Trump, and Ryan had seemed likely to
eventually do the same.
Instead he balked, in comments that
could also reflect concern for his own
political future and potential run for
president in 2020.
We will need a standard-bearer that
can unify all Republicans, all conservatives, all wings of our party, and
then go to the country with an appealing agenda, Ryan said. And we have
work to do on this front, and I think
our nominee has to lead in that effort.
Ryans announcement sent shockwaves through the Republican establishment.
Republican
National
Committee Chairman Reince Priebus,
who is close with the speaker, got no
advance warning before Ryans comments were made public.

Stirred by Sanders, Dems

shift left on health care
By Ricardo Alonso-Zaldivar
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON

More
Democrats seem to be having
doubts about the federal health
care law, a contentious issue for
most of President Barack Obamas
tenure and one of the defining elements of his legacy.
With the administration counting down its final year, Sen.
Bernie Sanders call for Medicare
for all appears to have rekindled
aspirations for more ambitious
changes beyond Obamacare.
That poses a challenge for
Hillary Clinton, who has argued
that the health care law is working
and the nation should build on it,
not start over.
Two recent polls have shown an
uptick in negative ratings of the
Affordable Care Act, or ACA, and

Pentagon spokesman:
Deadly IS attack a surprise
WASHINGTON The Islamic
State attack on Kurdish forces in
northern Iraq that killed U.S. Navy
Petty Officer 1st Class Charles
Keating was a surprise that, if
anticipated, might have turned out
differently, a Pentagon spokesman
said Thursday.
Obviously, had we had the
forces there, been able to see this
attack coming, they would have
responded differently to it, Peter
Cook, the Pentagon press secretary, said.

the shift seems

to come from
Democrats and
De m o c r a t i c leaning independents. For
example, in the
latest installment of the
Bernie Sanders Kaiser Family
F o un da t i o n
health care poll, the share of
Democrats with unfavorable views
increased by 6 percentage points.
Underlying the unease seems to
be a growing conviction that the
law did not do enough. About 27
million people remain uninsured,
and many who gained coverage
find it costly. Kaiser found that for
the first time, a 51-percent majority of Democrats wants to expand
what the law does, a sharp increase
from the 36 percent who said so in
December.

Around the nation

Military reports fewer sex
assaults; more intervention
WASHINGTON The number of
sexual assaults reported by the
military dipped slightly in 2015
compared to the previous year,
spurring military leaders to look
for new ways to encourage troops
to intervene when they see a
potentially dangerous situation.
The Pentagon said Thursday
there were 6,083 reports of sexual
assault involving an active duty
service member in 2015, compared to 6,131 in 2014.

Warning against Trump, Clinton

urges Democrats to come together
By Ken Thomas
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LOS ANGELES Hillary

Clinton urged Democrats on
Thursday to unite around her candidacy as a way of fending off
Republican Donald Trump, telling
black community leaders that her
advantage over Bernie Sanders far
outpaces the deficit she faced in
the 2008 primaries.
Campaigning
ahead
of
Californias June 7 primary,
Clinton pointed to her lead of
more than 3 million votes and
nearly 300 pledged delegates over
Sanders. When she was running
against then-Sen. Barack Obama

in 2008, Clinton said, they were

neck and neck in the popular
vote but she eventually relented
and campaigned hard to elect him
president.
He was about 60 or so pledged
delegates ahead, a much, much
smaller margin than what we see in
this race. But I knew that he had
won because it matters how many
delegates you have, whether its
60 or 300, Clinton told supporters at the California African
American Museum.
Pointing to Trump as a loose
cannon we cannot afford, Clinton
said in 2008 she knew that whatever differences we might have had
in the campaign, they were noth-

ing compared to the differences

between us and the Republicans.
Now if that were true in 08, that is
true on steroids (today).
Clinton and her advisers have
avoided publicly urging the
Vermont senator to drop out of the
race, saying he has the right to
campaign until the end of the primaries as she did in 2008. But her
pointed comments in Los Angeles
were the closest she has come to
suggesting Sanders should move
on to allow Democrats to concentrate on Trump, who became the
presumptive GOP nominee this
week after Republicans Ted Cruz
and John Kasich ended their campaigns.

Global, local leaders vow hard

work against temperature rise
By Maria Danilova
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON International leaders

and local officials on Thursday pledged to
work hard to stem the rise of global temperatures by investing in public transportation
and electric cars, planting trees and switching to solar energy.
At a climate action summit, U. N.
Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon urged governments, businesses and civil society to
make good on the landmark climate agreement concluded late last year in Paris by
more than 170 countries. The deal aims to
keep the global temperature rise below 2
degrees Celsius (3.6 degrees Fahrenheit)
compared with preindustrial times.
Ban called on cities to reduce greenhouse
gas emissions and on companies to invest
in green technologies with the goal or cooling the planet and ensuring cleaner air and
better health.

We need action now,

Ban said. Temperatures
continue to rise. Arctic
sea ice is melting fast.
Droughts, storms and
floods are costing lives
and productivity.
World Bank President
Jim Yong Kim said govBan Ki-moon ernments and corporations should invest in
lower-carbon transport systems and switch
over from road to rail and water transport.
Inaction means we will not meet our targets set in Paris, and the global temperature
will soar above 2 degrees Celsius, Kim
said. That would spell disaster for us, for
our children, and for the planet.

GOP states benefiting from

shift to wind and solar energy
By Michael Biesecker
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON If theres a War on Coal,

its increasingly clear which side is winning.
Wind turbines and solar panels accounted
for more than two-thirds of all new electric
generation capacity added to the nations
grid in 2015, according to a recent analysis
by the U.S. Department of Energy. The
remaining third was largely new power
plants fueled by natural gas, which has
become cheap and plentiful as a result of

hydraulic fracturing.
It was the second straight year U. S.
investment in renewable energy projects
has outpaced that of fossil fuels. Robust
growth is once again predicted for this
year.
And while Republican lawmakers in
Washington have fought to protect coalfired power plants, opposing President
Barack Obamas efforts to curtail climatewarming carbon emissions, data show their
home states are often the ones benefiting
most from the nations accelerating shift to
renewable energy.

Canada evacuating 8,000

wildfire evacuees by air
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

FORT MCMURRAY, Alberta Canadian

officials began evacuating 8,000 people
from work camps north of devastated Fort
McMurray by air on Thursday and hoped to
move thousands more via a highway convoy Friday if it is safe from a massive wildfire raging in Alberta that has grown to
85,000 hectares (210,035 acres).
More than 80,000 people have emptied
Fort McMurray in the heart of Canadas oil
sands, authorities said.
The Alberta government, which declared a
state of emergency, said more than 1,100
firefighters, 145 helicopters, 138 pieces of
heavy equipment and 22 air tankers were
fighting a total of 49 wildfires, with seven
considered out of control. Chad Morrison
with AB Wildfire, manager of wildfire prevention, said the fire continued to grow but
is moving away from Fort McMurray and the
rate of its growth has slowed.
About 25,000 evacuees moved north in
the hours after Tuesdays mandatory evacuation, where oil sands work camps were converted to house people. But the bulk of the

more than 80,000 evacuees fled south to

Edmonton and elsewhere, and officials are
moving everyone south where they can get
better support services.
Officials had flown 4,000 evacuees to
Edmonton and Calgary by Thursday evening
and expected to fly 4,000 more by the end of
the day. They hoped the highway would
become safe enough on Friday to move the
remaining people out via the south. It wasnt safe Thursday. A helicopter will lead the
evacuation convoy on Friday morning to
make sure the highway is safe. It will pass
through Fort McMurray where the fire has
torched 1,600 homes and other buildings.
Alberta Premier Rachel Notley said the
first convoy will be 400 vehicles and officials would see how that goes.
There have been no injuries or death in the
province from the fires. Notley said financial support will be provided to Albertans
and that cash cards may be made available
for evacuated residents.
The Alberta government also declared a
province-wide fire ban in an effort to reduce
the risk of more blazes in a province that is
very hot and dry.

OPINION

THE DAILY JOURNAL

Friday May 6, 2016

Hard-working Hill obvious choice for re-election

n 25 years of elected ofce,

Jerry Hill has proven to be hardworking, dedicated, responsible
and responsive to the constituents he
has been elected to serve.
Hill started his career in public
service as a member of the San Mateo
City Council in 1991. He was elected
to the San Mateo County Board of
Supervisors in 1999 and served there
until 2008 when he was elected to the
state Assembly. For the past four
years, he has served District 13 in the
state Senate, which covers all but the
very northern part of San Mateo
County and a portion of Santa Clara
County. Hill is now seeking his last
term in the state Senate and we can
think of no other person on the
Peninsula who could do a better job
for the district in Sacramento.
The only knock on Hill is that perhaps he tries to do too much and
packs his legislative agenda with too
much material rather than focusing on
a select few items he can carry
through in their entirety. But that is
likely because he wants to do as much
as he can to right wrongs both in this
district and in the state.

Editorial
He has had the courage to take on
the California Public Utilities
Commission and its cozy relationship with Pacic Gas and Electric and
his doggedness on the impacts of that
know no end. He is also a nuts and
bolts legislator who carries bills with
a direct impact on the district and the
people and organizations within.
From pension xes for San Mateo
County and working on a reserve cap
required for local school districts to
red light ticket reform and new ignition lock requirements for DUI offenders, Hill has taken on issues both big
and small, with both nite and
statewide impacts.
His focus on policy over politics
yields positive results in Sacramento
and here in the district and he is
always open to hearing and understanding opposing points of view.
While obviously a political insider,
he still maintains an outsider perspective and welcomes input from constituents when both writing legisla-

tion but also enacting policy in

Sacramento.
There are a signicant amount of
issues facing both the state and the
district, most notably housing and
transportation. Hill is knee-deep in
those discussions and is ghting to
ensure not only the legislative solution is sufcient but also makes sense
for this district. This district is seen
by other areas of California as afuent
and immune to problems related to
poverty and the growing rift between
rich and poor. Hill makes sure to
explain to those in Sacramento that
we are not immune and actually could
be considered ground zero for those
issues.
Hills opponents in this race are not
serious candidates but rather using the
campaign to push their own points of
view, which is their right. However,
Hill is the obvious choice to continue
serving this district in Sacramento.
He knows the district, he knows its
issues and he has the courage, tenacity, political savvy and intelligence to
ght for it now and for the next four
years.

Look back to
save Belmont Iceland
Editor,
Palo Alto almost lost its ice rink and
historic Sea Scout building but saved
both with creative solutions. By
1983, the rink was falling apart with
age and the leaseholder wanted to retire
while the owner wanted condos. Rink
supporters found city land the rink
owner wanted for ofces.Voters
approved the swap and the city funded
some rink repairs.
The Sea Scouts also could not save
their building once the harbor was
allowed to silt up. The building sank
into the mud until the city leased it to
the nonprot Environmental
Volunteers (EV) for 40 years at a rate
of one dollar per year. EV raised
money to rehab it with a city promise
to pay at least $300,000 from the sale
of Transferable Development Rights
(TDR) allowing property owners larger
buildings than normally allowed in the
downtown. Last month, the TDR sale
produced $911,000 for rights to an
extra 2,500 square feet, more than
twice the proceeds as expected.
Consensus at a recent workshop on
updating the Belmont Master Plan
shows a community desire for a downtown with building heights limited to
two to three stories. Which properties
will be allowed those precious third
stories? Why not swap the Belmont
rink owner some park land at the
Belmont Sports Complex by the
Oracle headquarters and/or have the
city sell TDRs for some of those future

Rush hour trafc used to have a time

streets were not constructed to handle
constant heavy trafc, but it has to.
Streets in residential areas are becoming throughways. Housing concerns
seem to be dealt with, but what about
the streets that these new developments will need to use that are already
overloaded? Especially after all the
new high-rise business building are

are now ranked two and ve of the top

Last weeks GOP Convention

Editor,
The Republican vaudeville
showrolled into town last week. I didnt even bother to go and be a protester as the entire collection of performerswas so sad and lacked anything
resembling any reasonable message.What I can see is how someone
could be motivated by a sense of having their intelligence insulted. At least
the Hyatt Regency can make a few dollars off the moneybags who back this
dismal team.
As a Sanders supporter (even though
Im old), I guess I can live with Hillary
and be comforted in the fact that at
least a rational being will probably be
at the helm of this nation. Hopefully,
even if Bernie isnt the winner, hell
spark a more permanent movement for
the 99 percent to endure and continue
as a pressure group for progressive
causes.

Affordable Housing Week

event in San Mateo County
By Evelyn Stivers

he coming week is Affordable Housing Week here

in San Mateo County an annual event that celebrates the work of housing advocates, elected ofcials, local government staff, the business community,
the faith community, civic groups, educators and labor
unions to create housing options in San Mateo County for
the most vulnerable.
Housing is a critical issue in our
region. In the last few years, San Mateo
County has added 55,000 jobs and only
about 2,100 homes. This imbalance in
development is causing a large and
growing shortage of teachers and other
professionals like emergency medical
staff. Our workforce, unable to nd
housing options in the county, are
forced to commute long distances, which causes terrible
trafc and makes it difcult for local businesses to attract
and maintain qualied employees. Low-income families
are being hit the hardest. Those who work at grocery
stores, preschools and restaurants are forced to double-up
and choose between food, medication and housing if they
try to stay in the county. The rising rents in San Mateo
are creating tidal waves of displacement throughout the
Bay Area.
The Housing Leadership Council is strategically engaging in policy work to increase funding for affordable
housing and access to great sites. We have been able to
pass policies and programs that enable the construction
of over 750 affordable homes. But we need more.
We are working with communities and their leaders to
pass housing and commercial impact fees. These policies
could raise $100 million in affordable housing funds each
year, enough funding to double our affordable housing
production in the county.
We are working in partnership with San Mateo Union
Community Alliance to ensure publicly owned sites are
used for public good and that every jurisdiction at a minimum complies with the Surplus Land Act, which requires a
rst right of refusal to affordable housing developers and
15 percent of all housing approved on public land be
affordable if an affordable housing developer is not chosen.
We are working with Faith in Action and Community
Legal Services in East Palo Alto to prevent homelessness
by contacting residents that live in apartment buildings
that are for sale or have recently been sold to connect
them to existing services and networks.
Last but not least, we are working with an MIT student
on a research project to nd out if an increase in bus service in specic communities would make affordable housing sites more competitive for state and federal funding
and nancing.
In light of all this, HLC and our regional partners across
the Bay Area are taking a moment to raise awareness
around the advocacy and solutions that exist right here at
home with Affordable Housing Week 2016. The week
gives us a chance to discuss hurdles and identify strategies
to solve the affordable housing crisis in San Mateo
County.
As part of San Mateo Countys Affordable Housing
Week, HLC is hosting a number of events to involve more
people in innovative and meaningful solutions to our
housing crises. On May 13, HLC is hosting a policy
luncheon featuring California Assembly Speaker pro
Tempore Kevin Mullin, along with a panel of experts, to
discuss how communities can leverage technology to
improve community engagement. On May 14, HLC is
also hosting our annual Housing Resource Fair, bringing
together local affordable housing nonprot organizations, legal aid, homebuyer programs and energy-efciency organizations, to offer housing and sustainability
resources to community members in the county. Other
events taking place throughout the week include a hardhat tour of an affordable housing development underway
in Daly City and a tour of a newly-completed affordable
housing development in Menlo Park.
The need for affordable housing is growing. To learn
about the steps the affordable housing community is taking to address the housing crisis, we hope you join us for
San Mateo Countys Affordable Housing Week 2016, and
check out the other events happening this month across
the region, as an opportunity to plug in, get informed and
learn about the extensive advocacy and real solutions that
exist right here in our Bay Area. Please visit
hlcsmc.org/events/affordable-housing-week for more
information.
Ev ely n Stiv ers is the ex ecutiv e director of the Housing
Leadership Council of San Mateo County.

NEW YORK Stocks closed

mostly unchanged on Thursday,

the markets focus is turning to
the U.S. jobs report for April due
out Friday. Investors will be
watching closely to see if it could

Foreign investors in fizzled development are at wits end

By Lisa Rathke
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MONTPELIER,
Vt.

Foreigners who had been banking

on their investments in a biomedical research facility and a hotel
and rental cottage project in
Vermont to get green cards are
scrambling to find a backup now
that the projects developers are
accused of misusing hundreds of

millions of dollars in what investigators called a massive eightyear fraud scheme.

Wei Wang and his wife, who are
from Beijing and living in
Houston after graduate school, had
hoped their investment of more
than a half-million dollars would
lead them down the road to starting
a restaurant.
We were doing our business
plans for the restaurant when this

Wang said he recently contacted

about 30 other Chinese investors,
of the 166 foreigners who chipped
in a total of about $83 million in
the biomedical research project, to
see if they might be able to work
together to protect their immigration status and money.

Despite what turned out to be a

relatively modest rise in oil
prices, energy companies were

Music and the Brain What Music Does for You and Your Children

Bronstein Music

Weve been following some of the recent research

about music and the brain and wanted to share that
information with you. Current scientific studies have
shown that listening to music causes brain wave
activity that is far greater than doing tasks such as
reading and math. Playing an instrument causes even
more activity.
How do the neuroscientists know these things about
the brain and music? It turns out that theyve made
enormous breakthroughs using bigger and better
machines for monitoring the brain in real time, namely
functional MRI (fMRI) and PET scanners. The results
show that many more areas of the brain become active
simultaneously when people listen to music while they
are connected to these scanners.
But when people are scanned while playing musical
instruments (specially-designed ones that dont
interfere with the scanners operation), the results are

amazing virtually every area of the brain becomes

active. Whats very interesting is that the neural fibers
that connect the left hemisphere of the brain to the
right hemisphere are also very active, meaning that the
logical side of the brain is strongly in touch with the
creative side.
The implications are profound, especially in the
education field. There have been many studies about
the positive correlation between music education and
brain development in children and adults. We know
that music training can improve motor and reasoning
skills. We know that learning music facilitates learning
other subjects and enhances skills that children
inevitably use in other areas, such as language development, math, and the sciences. Research has also found
a causal link between music and spatial intelligence.
Studies have also shown that music students scored
higher on standardized tests.

Those of us who are lucky enough to play music also

know that music is a form of communication.
According to English Magazine, Even today, music is
one of the few ways in which people can connect with
each other without language, it is one way in which
cultures can not only identify themselves but also
communicate with each other and find common
ground.This goes a long way to explain why every
culture has some form of music.

drums, voice, strings, brass, and woodwinds. See our

One of the great brains of all time, Albert Einstein,

I would probably be a musician. I often think in music.
I live my daydreams in music. I see my life in terms of
music.

Heartbreaker in three OTs

By Teresa M. Walker
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NASHVILLE, Tenn. Mike Fisher

scored his second goal at 11:12 of the third
overtime, and the Nashville Predators beat
the San Jose Sharks 4-3 early Friday morning in the longest game in franchise history.
With the victory, the Predators won their
first overtime game on home ice. More
importantly, they tied this second-round,
best-of-seven series at 2-2.
James Neal scored with 4:21 left in the
third period tying it up at 3-3, and the teams
went scoreless during the first two overtimes and headed to a third extra period
the first in the NHL playoffs this year.
The Predators killed off six penalties,
including one shortly before Fishers win-

ning goal at 1:03 a.m. Goalie Pekka Rinne

made 44 saves.
He was unbelievable all game for us,
Fisher said of Rinne. Shoot as much as you
can, and you never know.
This was the longest game for the Sharks
since a four-overtime game in Dallas in
2008. Now the Sharks, the NHLs best road
team during the regular season, have lost
two straight away from San Jose for the first
time since Dec. 18 and 20.
Game 5 is Saturday night in San Jose.
Most of Nashvilles fans stuck around for
the finish and had just given the Predators a
standing ovation a couple minutes before
Fishers game-winning goal gave them a
reason to celebrate.
Sharks goalie Martin Jones, who made 41
saves himself including a great stop on a
backhander off Colin Wilsons breakaway

earlier in the period, was at the edge of the

crease. Fisher scored into the net behind
Jones and was so tired he almost forgot how
he scored.
That was a good play to get (Mattias)
Ekholm free in the middle there, Fisher
said. He got a shot through, and I just kind
of go in there and got the rebound and (got)
it home.
Fisher started the scoring for Nashville at
9:50 of the first period. Colin Wilson also
scored.
Brent Burns scored twice, and Joonas
Donskoi also had a goal for San Jose.
In the first overtime, each team had plenty of chances. Predators center Ryan
Johansen hit the far post at 5:00, while the
Sharks nearly scored twice and thought they
had scored on a third try. Joel Ward couldnt

It was definitely a special day for the

Woodside baseball team Thursday.
Before the Wildcats hosted visiting El
Camino, Woodside recognized the seniors
on the team had a BBQ scheduled after the
game.
Between Senior Day and grilling, the
Wildcats had a chance to clinch at least a
share of the Peninsula Athletic Leagues
Ocean Division title and earn an automatic
bid into the Central Coast Section playoffs.
The Colts, however, were looking to play
spoilers and after three innings, held a 2-0
lead.
But a five-run fourth gave Woodside what
they needed to beat El Camino, 5-2.
They dont panic at all, said Woodside
co-manager Tim Faulkner of his squad. Its
a fun team.
Woodside (10-3 PAL Ocean, 14-10-1
overall) wasnt having too much fun
against El Camino starting pitcher Jesser
Hernandez, who kept the Wildcats in check
through the first three innings.
In the bottom of the fourth, however,
Hernandez lost his command and Woodside
took advantage.
Hes a good little pitcher, Faulkner
said. We just kept at it, kept swinging at
strikes. It was good.
And it was a rookie who came up with the
big hit for the Wildcats. Designated hitter
Scudder Stockwell may be a senior, but this
year is his first season of high school baseball. His two-run double in the fourth drove
in the first two runs for the Wildcats and was
the key hit in the inning.
The guys we have in the dugout, were a
real tight group, Stockwell said. To come
through on Senior [Day], it means the world
to me.
Stockwell, however, did not face Jesser
Hernandez. Instead, he faced Hernandezs

Chloe Stogner scores the go-ahead run in

Notre Dame-Belmonts 6-4 win over Mitty.

As Notre Dame-Belmont celebrated with

its Senior Day pregame festivities
Thursday, the Tigers knew they faced a
daunting task with the game to follow.
The entirety of NDBs roster was in grade
school the last time the Tigers defeated
Mitty, in 2008. But the current NDB generation that has improved steadily season
by season since fourth-year head coach Tara
Straube took over in 2013 capped the
2016 West Catholic Athletic League schedule by finally slaying the beast.

NDB (9-3 WCAL, 18-7-1 overall) rallied

for a 6-4 victory over the first-place
Monarchs, finishing off the best regularseason league record of Straubes career.
With the win, the Tigers secured a tie for
second place with Valley Christian in the
WCAL standings.
Weve been playing strong all season,
Straube said. It just shows how strong of a
team we are, and how strong of a team weve
become, that we can continue to keep it
going once the WCAL tournament comes;
and in playoffs we can compete with anyone.
NDBs Magnani sisters starred in the

long-awaited victory. Senior starting pitcher Sofia Magnani worked 6 1/3 innings to
earn the win, while sophomore Bianca
Magnani drove home the go-ahead run with
an RBI single in the bottom of first inning.
It was sophomore right-hander Madi
Earnshaw that closed it out though, taking
to the circle with the tying run on base and
one out in the seventh to face the heart of
the Monarchs batting order. Earnshaw rose
to the challenge with a dynamo drop ball to
induce consecutive groundouts to Sofia
Magnani after the senior took over as the

Hillsdales McCoy commits to St. Marys

By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

DAILY JOURNAL SPORTS FILE

A four-year varsity starter, McCoy has

compiled a pitching record of 57-17 and has
helped the Knights to an overall record of
77-33 over the last four seasons.

Local roundup

After weighing college options spanning

from the community college ranks to
Division II, Hillsdale pitcher Eryn McCoy
landed a scholarship to play Division-I ball
at St. Mary's College-Moraga.
A fourth-year varsity pitcher, McCoy has
etched one of the great careers in Knights
history. The San Mateo native has posted a
57-17 career record, tabbing double-figure
wins in each of her four varsity seasons.
Hillsdale has been one of the best experiences, McCoy said. Being able to play
with the girls Ive grown up with has
been the best thing I could have asked for.
Prior to being contacted by St. Marys in
January, McCoy was considering following
the local pipeline from Hillsdale to the
community college powerhouse up the hill
at College of San Mateo.
There are two former Knights in the starting lineup on this years No. 1 Northern
California playoff seed CSM team in sisters
Riley and Meagan Wells. Two current
Hillsdale seniors, Lauren Quirke and
MacKenzie Driscoll, plan to play at CSM
next year.
But when McCoy began getting attention
from four-year schools starting with the
Division-II program at Cal State San
Marcos it soon became clear she wouldnt be playing college ball in her hometown.

Gryphons right-hander Joey Blundell
showed up with his A game Thursday, firing his first career shutout to down the
Grizzlies at Sea Cloud Park.
Blundell earned his third complete game
of the season, limiting Jefferson to four
hits while striking out five against two
walks, improving his record t o 4-1.
Blundell also provided the game-winning
RBI with run-scoring single in the first
inning. The Gryphons added an insurance
run in the sixth inning on an RBI single by
Ben Leonard.
With the win, Crystal Springs (10-4 in
PAL Lake, 15-4 overall) moves into a second-place tie with Jeff in the PAL Lake

The Knight scored seven runs on 10 hits

but South City tied the game with three runs
in the bottom of the second.
The Knights retook the lead with a run in
the fourth and iced the game with two more
in the sixth and one more in the seventh.
Michael Shames tripled and drove in three
runs for Menlo, which also got a home run
from Griff McGarry.

Shes a hell of a competitor, Hillsdale

head coach Randy Metheany said. Shes
pitched pretty much every big game the last
four years. Weve gone to the (Central Coast
Section) playoffs and shes pitched in the
semifinals all three years. We wouldnt be
where we are now if it wasnt for Eryn.
Metheany has seen some stellar pitching
talent come through Hillsdale. In 1990,
when the Knights were the No. 1-ranked
team in the state, Maureen Brady who
posted a state-record 116 wins in her high
school career fronted the rotation with a
32-1 record.
While McCoys 57 career wins fall far
short on Bradys school record, teams of the
current era are constrained by being allowed
to play a maximum of 27 games per season.
Also, McCoy shared time in each of her first
three seasons with the Knights. It wasnt
until the end of her junior season she
became the exclusive starting pitcher.
Shes just a competitor, Hillsdale assistant coach Michelle Zalba said. Shes one
of those kids that when you put her on the
field she gives you everything shes got.
Most recently playing club softball with
the San Jose Lady Sharks, McCoy has
played above her age level since her 14year-old club season. The result a phenomenon that carried over to her time at
Hillsdale is the star hurler always had to
compete for playing time.
I think I was always able to play my
game, McCoy said. Ive been blessed with
coaches that allowed me to do well and

put us out on the field confident that we were

able to play with older girls.
McCoy said she expects the same kind of
competitive environment at St. Marys.
While the Gaels are graduating one of their
rotation anchors in current senior Lujane
Mussadi, junior right-hander Katie Moss
St. Marys leader in innings pitched is
slated to return in 2017.
Its a huge class coming in this year,
McCoy said. Im going in willing to work
every day and want to earn my spot on the
field.
McCoy officially committed to St.
Marys last Wednesday. Her scholarship is
strictly academic, meaning the St. Marys
softball team will be able to use its athletic
scholarship money for other players.
Im just excited for her, Zalba said.
Shes a great ballplayer and a great kid. Im
just happy that she found somewhere that
makes her happy.
The day before McCoy made her college
decision, the right-hander endured her worst
loss of the season as Hillsdale fell to rival
Carlmont. Since then, she has earned three
straight wins, including Tuesdays 8-7
extra-inning win over Capuchino to move
into a first-place tie in the PAL Bay
Division with Half Moon Bay.
I think [the winning streak] was more
from picking a school and feeling like shes
had a place, Zalba said. All our seniors
felt that way. The pressure they feel these
days is a lot.

Curry likely to
sit out Game 3
By Janie McCauley
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

OAKLAND Stephen Curry is unlikely

to play Saturday for Golden State in Game 3
of the Western Conference semifinals at
Portland since he still hasnt practiced on
his sprained right knee.
Curry did work on the side while the
Warriors practiced Thursday but couldnt yet
do any of the scrimmaging that the medical
staff and coaches want to see before he is
cleared to return.
Its tough to see him playing Saturday,
coach Steve Kerr said. Hes gotten better
and better each day.
In fact, Kerr said probably not when
asked about Curry playing Saturday. Game 4 on
Monday is still a conceivable option if Curry
keeps making good
progress.
Everything has gone
very smoothly. He hasnt had any setbacks,
Steph Curry Kerr said. Hes ramping
up things in the weight
room.
The Warriors will practice again in
Oakland on Friday before flying to Portland
in the afternoon. Kerr said that even on a
game day when his teammates only have
shootaround, Curry could get some two-ontwo work with coaches Luke Walton, Jarron
Collins and Theo Robertson.
Defending champion Golden State leads
the best-of-seven series against Portland 20. The Warriors had Wednesday off from
practice after winning Game 2 on Tuesday
night at Oracle Arena.
Curry returned from an ankle injury only
to injure his knee April 24 when he slipped
on a wet spot just before halftime of a Game
4 win at Houston in the first round of the
playoffs.
The Warriors would probably want to see
how Curry comes out of his first practice
then have him participate in another before
he is game-ready, Kerr said.
Thats what we did in Houston with the
ankle. He wanted to play but he hadnt practiced, Kerr said. We gave him two straight
days of three-on-three, five-on-five, and he
felt pretty good. So thats why he started out
Game 4. We probably need to get through
that process. We need to see him in rhythm,
cutting, moving and see how he responds
the next day as well.

TORONTO DeMarre Carroll scored 21

points, Jonas Valanciunas had 15 points and
12 rebounds, and the Toronto Raptors beat
the Miami Heat 96-92 in overtime on
Thursday night to even the Eastern
Conference semifinals at one game apiece.
Valanciunas had 11 points and seven
rebounds in the fourth quarter and overtime as
the Raptors avoided losing consecutive
games for the first time this postseason.
DeMar DeRozan scored 20 points, Kyle
Lowry had 18 and Terrence Ross 10 for
Toronto, which battled back late in the
fourth quarter to force the second overtime of
the series, then shut the Heat down to start it.
Goran Dragic scored 20, and Dwyane Wade
and Joe Johnson each had 17 for the Heat.
Hassan Whiteside had 13 points and 13
rebounds, while Luol Deng had 12 points.
Game 3 is Saturday afternoon in Miami.
The Heat led 77-70 midway through the
fourth, but back-to-back baskets by
Valanciunas shaved the gap to 80-78 with
3:18 remaining. Ross tied it with a jumper at

Lowry, whose halfcourt shot sent Game 1
to overtime, got the last attempt for the
Raptors but couldnt hit the rim with a long
3-point attempt.
The Heat went cold in overtime, missing
their first five field goal attempts, including

three misses by Johnson. DeRozan and

Valanciunas connected and Carroll made a

Embarrassed Hawks look for answers

By Paul Newberry
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ATLANTA Thoroughly embarrassed by

Clevelands record-setting performance, the
Atlanta Hawks spent part of Thursday watching film from their Game 2 debacle.
Not the whole game, mind you.
No need to relive that nightmare.
We watched parts of the tape, coach Mike
Budenholzer said Thursday, still sounding a
bit shell-shocked. To watch all of it was
probably not needed.
The Hawks had already gotten a firsthand
look at the Cavaliers pouring in a staggering
25 3-pointers an NBA record for either the
regular season or playoffs in a 123-98
blowout Wednesday night, pushing
Cleveland to a commanding 2-0 lead in the
best-of-seven series.
Even with the next two games at home,
beginning with Game 3 Friday night, the
Hawks seem to have little hope of slowing a
clicking-on-all-cylinders team that has beaten them nine straight times going back to a
sweep of last years Eastern Conference final.
Were frustrated but looking forward,
Budenholzer said. I think we all know we
have more to give coming back for Game 3 in
Atlanta. Theres probably not a lot that can

last night.
If the Hawks were upset by the Cavaliers
relentless long-range shooting, they kept it
mostly to themselves.
Cleveland continued putting up 3s, even
after building a 36-point halftime lead.
Clearly chasing the record book, Dahntay
Jones sank his teams 24th 3 with 2 1-2 minutes left, and Mo Williams poured salt in
Atlantas wounds by knocking down another.

in that position, you want to break the
record. Youd think they would start missing,
but everybody they played ... kept making
them. When you see one go in, your confidence goes way up and everybody wants to
join in.
Cleveland coach Tyronn Lue shrugged off
any suggestion that his team tried to embarrass the Hawks.
The players felt like it was within their
grasp, they wanted to go for it, Lue said
Thursday. I dont see anything wrong with
it. We didnt do anything malicious. We were
up 40 points and we got our starters out with
4 minutes to go in the third quarter.
Budenholzer said hes got more important
things to worry about than Clevelands barrage of 3s long after the game was decided.
I am more focused on what were doing,
what we need to do going forward, the Hawks
coach said. Thats kind of just somewhat
unimportant to us. I know some things have
been said. But at the end of the day, I dont
think I need to make any comments.
Indeed, there are plenty of other things to
occupy the Hawks attention.

Dallas ties St. Louis series with overtime win

By R.B. Fallstrom

Stars 3, Blues 2 OT

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ST. LOUIS In short order, the Dallas Stars

went from embarrassed to triumphant.
Cody Eakin scored at 2:58 of overtime and
the Stars beat the St. Louis Blues 3-2 on
Thursday night, bouncing back smartly from a
blowout loss two days earlier to tie the secondround series at two games apiece.
I said, Its time for us to man up, and I
thought we did, coach Lindy Ruff said. I
thought our leaders were our leaders.
Patrick Sharp set up the winner and also
scored for the Stars, coming off a 6-1 loss in
Game 3. Rookie Radek Faksa had the other
goal, his third of the postseason.
I know it was ugly for a lot of the guys and
the team in general for Game 3, Sharp said.
Credit to the team, we were able to put it

behind us.
Vladimir Tarasenko scored his sixth goal of
the playoffs on a first-period breakaway and
added an assist for St. Louis, giving him five
points in the last two games. Paul Stastny had
his first of the postseason off a deflection from
Tarasenko.
The Stars, who finished first overall in the
Western Conference, regained home-ice advantage heading into Game 5 on Saturday in Dallas.
It doesnt matter if were in Dallas, if were in
St. Louis, if were in the middle of nowhere,
Blues captain David Backes said. Weve got to
play our same style of game, put it out there and
when we do that the chips fall on our side of the
table more often than not.
Eakin has a goal and seven assists in the
line at 7:34, but officials immediately ruled
no goal for goaltender interference. They
upheld that ruling after review for Pavelski

Both teams had plenty of chances in the

second overtime. Rinne kept them playing
with save after save, including one off a
point-blank try by Tomas Hertl late.
Nashville captain Shea Weber, with 45 minutes, 16 seconds of ice time, went to the box
with 2:03 left in the overtime period for

postseason and hustled to get into position on

the deciding score. He beat Brian Elliott on a 3on-2 break after getting a stick on Jori Lehteras
shot in tight on the other end against Kari
Lehtonen.
Thats the nice thing about finishing first,

of fun.
The Stars are 1-2 in overtime in the playoffs

Dallas is 5-1 with Lehtonen, who made 24
saves, in the playoffs. Ruff also has used Antti
Niemi extensively, and joked about the daily
controversy.
Now, weve got a decision to make next
game with these two goalies, Ruff said.
Elliott stopped 25 shots for St. Louis and
thought he was in good position on the winner.
It almost looks like it goes on the outside of

the net and in, thats how close it was, Elliott

said. Just regroup and go take a game from their
barn.
Tarasenkos goal was an exception to the rule
in a tight-checking first period. Somehow he
found the defense napping and scored his 16th
career goal in 24 playoff games, beating
Lehtonen between the pads.
The Stars looked worse on the play given
they had six men on the ice, an infraction that
went undetected.
We still couldnt defend Tarasenko, which is
kind of ironic, Ruff said. But that was my mistake.That was on me.

Seattle puts Marshawn Lynch on retired list

By Tim Booth
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

RENTON, Wash. Beast Mode is in

retirement mode.
The Seattle Seahawks placed running back
Marshawn
Lynch
on
the
NFLs
reserve/retired list Thursday, making official
what was implied in February when Lynch
indicated he was ready to end his football
career.
The star running back was placed on the
list Thursday. It was a procedural step, but
one that needed to be taken to make Lynchs
intended retirement official.
Lynch stole attention from the fourth quarter of the Super Bowl in February when he
posted a picture on Twitter with a pair of
green football cleats hanging from a telephone or electrical wire. His agent confirmed a day later that Lynch intended to
retire.
Seattle made a series of moves this offseason that indicated the running back who led
the Seahawks to their first Super Bowl title
was ready to step away, including picking
three running backs in the NFL draft last

week. Lynch would have

been an $11.5 million
cap hit if he remained on
Seattles roster for the
2016
season.
The
Seahawks will save $6.5
million with Lynchs
retirement.
Lynch has spent the
offseason promoting his
Marshawn
clothing line, traveling
Lynch
to Egypt to participant
in a football camp and ride camels, and
doing relief work in Haiti. Basically doing
everything but get ready for the upcoming
NFL season.
When Lynch was brought to Seattle early
in the 2010 season, he was acquired because
the Seahawks desperately needed a running
back. What he ended up providing was an
attitude and style that became the foundation
for bringing that first Super Bowl title to the
franchise.
And for that, Lynch will forever hold a
special place with the Seahawks. He may
have been more of a headache off the field
than anyone let on during his time in

Seattle, but hell ultimately be lauded as the

running back that got the Seahawks to a
place they had never been.
Lynch will step aside after nine seasons in
the league. Six of those came in Seattle,
where he played in the postseason five
times. Hes second all-time in Seattle history for rushing touchdowns and fourth in
yards rushing. He tied for the NFL lead in
rushing touchdowns in 2013 and 2014 and is
No. 8 all-time in total yards rushing during
the postseason. He was an All-Pro, a Pro
Bowl selection, and perhaps the most
revered Seahawks player in the opinion of
their fans.
Lynch concluded his career with 9,112
yards rushing and 74 touchdowns in the regular season, and another nine touchdowns in
the postseason. He caused seismic activity
with his tackle-shedding run against New
Orleans in the 2010 playoffs and was rarely
brought down by just one defender.
Since Ive been here hes been the heart
and soul, the engine of our offense. A vocal
leader. A great influence and one of the best
teammates Ive ever had, Seattle wide
receiver Doug Baldwin said last month of

Lynch. I cant say enough about him.

Along with what Lynch provided on the
field came his peculiarities when he wasnt
carrying the ball. His contract disputes. His
avoidance of the media. His memorable performances during two Super Bowl weeks that
became as much a topic as the game itself:
Im just here so I wont get fined. And during his injury-filled final season, ruling
himself out of Seattles NFC wild-card game
at Minnesota just minutes before the team
left for the airport.
There was almost certainly going to be a
separation between Lynch and the Seahawks
after the 2015 season for financial and evolutionary reasons. Seattle was always going
to become Russell Wilsons team moving
forward the nature of a quarterback with a
long-term contract agreement and
Wilsons performance last season showed
the evolution was in process.
But Lynchs will always be responsible for
setting the foundation for what coach Pete
Carroll wanted to create with the Seahawks.
Hes a dog. His whole demeanor, Seattle
safety Earl Thomas said before Super Bowl
49. Hes a man (among) boys out there.

Wheatcroft, Loupe share Wells Fargo lead

By Steve Reed
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CHARLOTTE, N.C. Steve Wheatcroft

and Andrew Loupe each shot 7-under 65 on
Thursday in rain and steady wind to share the
first-round lead in the Wells Fargo
Championship, while Rory McIlroy and
Rickie Fowler dodged a thrown golf ball
with an earplug attached to it.
As if battling a lengthy and saturated
course wasnt enough, playing partners
McIlroy and Fowler endured a bizarre event
on the sixth tee box when a spectator hurled
the dressed-up golf ball their way as Fowler
was preparing to hit.
So random, Fowler said. The guy tried
to say it was a gift. I dont know why you
would give a gift of a golf ball with an
earplug attached to it.
The fan was escorted from the property by
police.
It was one of those things, McIlroy
said. It was a golf ball with an ear plug
stuck on it, so it was sort of strange.

Fowler, the 2012 winner, finished with a

71, leaving him six shots behind
Wheatcroft and Loupe, who were also paired
together. McIlroy, the only two-time winner
of the tournament, shot a 73 after a bogeyplagued start to his title defense. He won by
seven shots last year, finishing at 21 under.
Indias Anibarn Lahiri was a shot back
after a 66.
Phil Mickelson, who has finished in the
top five six times in 12 starts at the Wells
Fargo Championship but never won, opened
with a 69.
I have been able to play well here over
the years, but just havent been able to
breakthrough and get a victory, Mickelson
said. But I will keep knocking on the door
and hopefully keep giving myself a
chance.
But the talk of the tournament came after
McIlroy hit his tee shot on the green on the
250-yard, par-3 sixth hole. When Fowler
stepped up to the tee he saw something fly
by his left side, startling him for a moment.
He didnt know what it was until it stopped

rolling.
McIlroy wound up with a birdie, while
Fowler and the other member of their threesome, Hideki Matsuyama, carded 3s.
The 27-year-old Loupe, who has three top10 finishes this season, shot 31 on the
front nine. Wheatcroft did his work on the
four par 5s, playing them in 6 under with
two eagles and two birdies.
Kind of felt like I was trying to keep up
the whole time with Steve, Loupe said. We
both had it rolling early. Just solid golf for
the most part, just looking to keep that
momentum going.
McIlroy has some work to do to get into
contention if he hopes to become the first
three-time winner.
He called his first competitive round since
the Masters a tale of two nines.
The worlds No. 3-ranked player shot a 4over 40 while starting on the back side,
then got things headed in the right direction
with four birdies on the front.
I was sort of still in range mode on the
front nine, McIlroy said. I didnt really

have my scoring head on.

McIlroy, who turned 27 on Wednesday,
wasnt pleased with how he played in the
soggy conditions but said the strong finish
gave him something strong to build on for
Friday.
I need to go out and shoot a good round,
something in the 60s, and get myself back
into the tournament going into the weekend, said McIlroy, who has spent the last
three weeks working to fix his swing.
Jim Furyk shot a 73 in his return from an
eight-month layoff because of a wrist injury.
Furyk had no pain, no apprehension,
but said he wasnt planning to hit many
practice balls after the round which didnt
exactly upset him.
I dont enjoy hitting balls, so actually
its kind of fun, Furyk said. Im not really
allowed to or cant, so Im enjoying that
part of it.
Top-ranked Jason Day and No. 2 Jordan
Spieth did not enter the event, and No. 8
Dustin Johnson withdrew earlier in the week
because of unspecified reasons.

Sports brief
Chastain, McMillan, Garber make Hall of Fame
CHICAGO World Cup champions Brandi Chastain and
Shannon MacMillan, and MLS Commissioner Don Garber
have been elected to the National Soccer Hall of Fame.
Chastain, who scored the winning goal in the 1999 World
Cup final shootout against China, was selected on the player ballot. MacMillan, her teammate on that squad, was voted
in on the veteran ballot. Garber was chosen on the builder
ballot.
Chastain played 12 seasons of international soccer, scoring 30 goals in 192 matches. She also won a World Cup in
1991, and earned Olympic gold in 1996 and 2004. She was
the first U.S. player to score five goals in one match, in
1991 World Cup qualifying as a forward. She later became a
mainstay on defense.
To be inducted into the Hall of Fame and have my name
read in the same sentence with our countrys best is truly
humbling, Chastain said Thursday. The opportunity to
play the game was given to me by my parents; my competitiveness and enthusiasm was fostered by every coach who I
was blessed to be taught by; and my passion was shared and
heightened by all of my teammates over my career. It is not
enough to say how grateful I am with words, and therefore, I
continue to share the game with anyone and everyone.
MacMillan also was on the 1996 Olympic team. She
scored 60 goals in 12 international seasons and was the
2002 U.S. Soccer Female Player of the Year.

Rocky NASCAR season for Bowyer

By Dave Skretta
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

KANSAS CITY, Kan. Clint

Bowyer will be a busy man this weekend at Kansas Speedway.
Hell start off by jumping into a
truck for the first time in a couple years
on Friday night, a one-off ride with
GMS Racing. Then hell slip into his
regular ride with HScott Motorsports
in the Sprint Cup
race on Saturday
before giving fans
who purchased a car
from his dealership
ride-alongs
on
Sunday.
In other words,
Bowyer will be too
busy to ruminate on
Clint Bowyer how rocky this season has been.
In what was supposed to be a bridge
year between the folding of Michael
Waltrip Racing and taking over Tony
Stewarts ride next year, Bowyer has
twice blown up at his team on the
radio, labored to get his No. 15 car
anywhere near contention and even
brought his own considerable ability
into question.
I think everybody knows me,
whether Im frustrated or happy or
whatever, that ventilation whether
its a celebratory ventilation or a
pissed off the wick is pretty short.
It burns out in about 5 minutes,
Bowyer said Thursday. The next thing
out of my mouth is, All right, what are
we going to do to fix it?
I dont really care about yesterday

or what happened in a practice or race,

this sport is all about what are you
going to do tomorrow? he said.
Thats what you have to instill in
yourself.
Bowyer is accustomed to being in
the best equipment, whether it was the
past few years with Waltrip or his early
years with Richard Childress Racing.
And Bowyer knew there would be plenty of growing pains when he joined up
with Harry Scotts smaller operation
for this season.
He admits now that he wasnt quite
prepared for the enormity of the challenge.
When youre down, most of the
time theres a reason youre down,
especially when youre as far down as
we are down, Bowyer said. (But)
weve got some good things coming
that Im excited about.
Its not as if this season has been a
total throwaway. He finished eighth a
few weeks ago at Bristol, and last week
survived the wrecked-filled race at
Talladega to finish seventh.
Its just that in between was a 33rd at
Richmond, when Bowyer exploded at
his ill-prepared team in a profanitylaced tirade. And before that lousy runs
at Daytona, Atlanta and elsewhere.
At times its hard to believe that this
is the same driver who won the Xfinity
Series championship in 2008, or
reached victory lane eight times in the
Cup Series. And its just as hard to
believe that its been four years since
Bowyers last victory at Charlotte.
Ive been doing this for 10 years.
Theres nothing that surprises you in
this sport, he said. Its the same ol

song and dance: When youre running

good, its easy. When youre running
bad, its the hardest thing youve done
in your life. ... Its a hard business and
its very competitive.
Bowyer insists hes still having fun,
even if hes spending so much time riding around at the back, and hes looking forward to a few opportunities to
drive for others the remainder of the
season.
Hell be in a truck this weekend for
the first time since August 2014, a
fourth-place finish at Pocono, and at
Kansas Speedway for the first time
since his Truck Series victory there on
June 4, 2011. On Thursday, JR
Motorsports announced that Bowyer
would jump into their Xfinity car for
the Sept. 17 race at Chicagoland. It
will be Bowyers first time in that
series since 2012.
Ultimately though, those are pleasant diversion from what has been a trying season in NASCARs top series.
I know Im going to a championship-caliber team for three years
after this one. Youll see me back,
Bowyer said. By no means do I consider myself (done). I feel like you get
the race cars underneath you and you
compete exactly the way youve
always competed the history is
there. The consistency is there. That
lends itself to competing for championships.

BYU, Ohio State to play for NCAA mens volleyball title

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. Brenden

Sander had 14 kills and no errors on 24
swings and top-ranked BYU beat Long
Beach State 25-21, 23-25, 25-19, 2518 on Thursday night in the NCAA
volleyball semifinals.
Ben Patch added 13 kills for the
Cougars (27-3). They will face secondranked Ohio State in the final Saturday
night. The Buckeyes outlasted UCLA
22-25, 25-22, 25-21, 20-25, 18-16 in
the second semifinal.
I just want to say hats off to Long
Beach State, BYU coach Shawn
Olmstead said. I anticipated a great

match and it was. Theyre a wellcoached team. They pushed our players. It was a fun match to be a part of. I
was happy with our boys composure
after losing that second set and going
into the third. We made some really
good decisions from there.
The Cougars won titles in 1999,
2001 and 2004.
TJ DeFalco led Long Beach State
(25-8) with 23 kills and had eight digs
and three blocks.
We are incredibly proud to have
been here, 49ers coach Alan Knipe
said. This is exactly where we wanted
to be and we like where were going.
We would have liked to have played

better tonight, but unfortunately that

didnt happen. We werent able to keep
(BYU) out of system long enough, or
stay in system long enough ourselves.
Miles Johnson had 20 kills for Ohio
State (30-3), and national player of the
year Nicolas Szerszen added 15. The
Buckeyes have won 22 straight matches. They won their lone title in 2011.
Jake Arnitz led UCLA (25-7) with 18
kills. The Bruins won the last of their
record 19 titles in 2006.

Rockies rout Giants with 13-run fifth inning

By Rick Eymer
SAN FRANCISCO Nolan
Arenado and Trevor Story each
homered and drove in three runs,
and the Colorado Rockies set a franchise record with a 13-run fifth
inning in a 17-7 victory over the
Giants on Thursday night.
Gerardo Parra had two hits and

three RBIs in the fifth, when

Colorado sent 17 batters to the plate.
Its the most runs scored in an
inning by any team since Arizona
scored 13 in the fourth against
Pittsburgh on April 11, 2010.
Every Rockies hitter either scored
or drove in a run in the inning,
including starting pitcher Chris
Rusin, who singled home a pair of
runs. Seven of the nine did both.

Matt Cain (0-4) lost his first four

decisions in a season for the first
time in his career. He allowed eight
runs on 10 hits in four-plus innings
and did not walk a batter or strike
out anyone. Reliever Vin Mazzaro
yielded nine runs on six hits while
recording just one out.
D.J. LeMahieu collected three
hits and drove in a run, Tony
Wolters drove in two runs and the

Rockies won their fifth in seven

games following a season-worst,
five-game losing streak. Mark
Reynolds also had a pair of RBIs.
Rusin had a 14 2/3 innings scoreless streak come to an end, though
Colorados big fifth made it a moot
point.
Rusin gave up seven runs on 13
hits in his 4 1/3 innings. He walked
two and struck out four. Despite

Sports brief
Will Smiths widow accepts his
posthumous degree in Miami
NEW ORLEANS The widow of former New
Orleans Saints defensive end Will Smith
accepted his degree from the University of
Miami on Thursday, nearly a month after he
was shot and killed.
A publicist for the Smith family, Lauren
Renschler, said Racquel Smith accepted the
degree during a graduation ceremony in Miami.
She was extremely proud of Will, she said.
A photo showed Smith, sitting in a wheelchair, smiling as she held the diploma. Racquel
Smith was shot twice in the legs during the
April 9 altercation in New Orleans that killed
her husband.
The beloved Saints player was studying at
the schools executive MBA program for
artists and athletes when he died.
In a video, the crowd can be heard clapping
and cheering as an announcer says that Racquel
Smith is accepting the award on behalf of her
husband.
Smith was heralded as a leader on the Saints
team that rebounded with the hurricane-stricken city and won the Super Bowl after the 2009
season. He stayed in the area after his 2012
retirement and was active with various charities in his adopted city.

I think I was nervous, Earnshaw said.
But I was trying to tell myself I wasnt

At the outset of the game, it looked like it
might be a long afternoon for Sofia
Magnani as she got tagged for two unearned
runs in the top of the first. After a single and
an error at third base, Mitty junior Julia
Lucas smoked a two-run double to center
field to give Mitty a 2-0 lead.
But the Tigers answered right back in the
bottom of the frame, rallying for a go-ahead
four-spot. The Monarchs (10-2, 17-4)
opened the door with three errors in the
frame, and Bianca Magnani cashed in with
the game tied 2-2 by lashing an RBI single
to center to score Chloe Stogner with the
go-ahead run.
I was angry because I made an error, so I
knew I needed to get this for myself and for
my team, and for the seniors, Bianca
Magnani said. And I did. It was a good feeling.
NDB added one more run in the frame when

cousin, Bismark Hernandez, who relieved

Jesser after two walks and an error loaded the
bases.
So was Stockwell, who was 0 for 1 against
Jesser, looking for anything in particular
from Bismark?
This is my first year playing high school
baseball. I go up there looking to hack,
Stockwell said.
After taking a ball on the first pitch,
Stockwell rifled the next one into the rightcenter field gap, plating Matt Hennefarth and
Evan Yedinak to tie the game at 2.
Stockwell got animated as he pulled safely
into second, pumping his fist and even striking a Draymond Green-esque bicep flex.
We all have our celebrations. I was feeling
it, Stockwell said with a laugh. The guys
count on me to bring energy. To come through
in a big moment, to clinch a CCS spot, it
means a lot to me.
But the Wildcats werent done in the inning.
Brenden Shah followed with a walk to re-load
the bases. Woodside then took the lead for

THE DAILY JOURNAL

Bianca Magnani scored on Mittys third

error of the inning. Then Sofia Magnani
buckled down, following with three scoreless innings to preserve the lead.
Ive never started against Mitty before,
Sofia Magnani said. I know a lot of the
players so I kind of knew what to expect,
but I was excited to pitch so I was just
trying to stay within myself and do the best
I could.
Mitty drew closer in the fifth inning with
a single run to make it 4-3. But the Tigers
thanks to Straubes daring third-base coaching scored two key insurance runs in the
bottom of the fifth.
Sofia Magnani led off the inning with a
single and advanced to second on an outfield
error. Senior Olivia Geronimo followed
with a sharp single to center field that
seemed to be hit too hard to score the runner
from second. Even with no outs and the
cleanup hitter due up, Straube opted to send
the runner anyway; and despite the throw
arriving at the plate first, Sofia Magnani
managed to slide under the tag to score the
run, with Geronimo advancing to second
base on the throw.
Then with two outs, Bianca Magnani singled to center, and Straube gambled again.
Geronimo looked dead to rights at the plate,
but the throw from the outfield shorthopped the catcher and squibbed away, giv-

ing NDB a 6-3 lead.

I took the risk but I wanted to stay
aggressive, Straube said. It was either
they were going to make outs or we were
going to get some more runs to help us out.
I wanted to stay aggressive. I didnt want to
slow us down at all.
The two runs proved the difference in the
game.
With Mitty leading off the seventh with
its No. 9 hitter, Sofia Magnani surrendered
four straight singles. Geronimo in center
field saved the day though, stealing the
momentum from McKinsey Thorpes RBI
single by gunning down a runner at third
base for the first out of the inning. Mitty
senior Lindsey Goubeaux who is bound
for Oregon State followed with a single
to knock Sofia Magnani out of the game.
I definitely would have liked to see her
finish it, but I knew Madi had her back,
Straube said. We wanted to get her the win.
That was the most important thing. Im
really proud of her. I knew she was going to
have a great game today. She came out
strong.

Friday with a road non-leauge game against

advantage in the first round.

good on an Evan McDonough sacrifice fly to

center that drove in Anthony Kastelic. That
brought up leadoff hitter Joe Arsan, who on an
0-1 pitch, hammered a ball into the left-center
field gap to drive in Stockwell and Shah to put
the Wildcats up 5-2.
After that, it was Jake Booths game to finish. The Woodside starter, other than a rocky
second and third inning, was in complete control on the mound. Looking like a young
Johnnie LeMaster including the bad mustache the lanky, funky-delivery righty
threw an 85-pitch complete game, scattering
six hits.
He just throws strikes, gets ahead of hitters, Faulkner said.
After retiring El Camino (4-10, 7-18) in
order on just seven pitches in the first inning,
the Colts hit Booth hard in the second, scoring twice. On an 0-2 offering, El Camino
cleanup hitter Omar Valdez crushed a double to
the fence in left field to lead off the second
inning. He went to third on a groundout and
scored when Bismark Hernandez blooped a
ball into shallow left field and hustled his way
into an RBI double. Nelson Perez followed
with the Colts third straight hit, an RBI single to center to put El Camino up 2-0.
The Colts had a chance to add on in third
when they loaded the bases with one out. But

Booth got a flyout to left field and got a strikeout to end the threat.
He had a little hiccup, but overall it was a
good game, Faulkner said of Booths performance.
The win was the eighth in a row for
Woodside and the Wildcats fifth straight
Ocean Division victory. If things broke right
around the rest of the Ocean Division
Thursday, Woodside had a chance to win the
championship outright with Thursdays win
over El Camino.
But Menlo Schools 7-3 win over South
City and Kings Academys 7-0 victory over
Half Moon Bay means Woodside will need to
beat Kings Academy Saturday in Sunnyvale to
win the Ocean Division championship outright. A Kings Academy win would mean
Kings, Menlo and Woodside would all finish
Ocean Division play with 10-4 records and all
three would finish as tri-champs.
In that case, Kings Academy would get the
first automatic CCS spot based on a tiebreaker. Woodside would be next and Menlo would
be the third selection out of the Ocean
Division.
Faulkner, however, doesnt want to even
worry about any that.
Were trying to win this frickin game
Saturday, Faulkner said.

BOSEMAN
Continued from page 19
His breakthrough role was as Jackie Robinson in the 2013
biopic, 42. The following year, he became James Brown in
Get On Up. So stepping into a third super-powered part as
Black Panther is nothing really new for the 39-year-old actor.
Yeah, I would say that, said Boseman with an easy laugh
that belies the sincerity and conviction with which he
approaches his craft.
To play TChalla, Black Panthers alter-ego and heir to the
throne of the fictional African nation of Wakanda, the actor
did more than read every Panther comic he could find. He also
made several trips to the real continent of Africa, and even
took a role in a small film so he could play a South African
character.
You know how comedians, before they do their big HBO
standup show, they do the Comedy Store or a smaller venue?
Boseman asked. To me, this was an independent film, so it
was a chance to play a character from the continent of Africa
before doing Black Panther.
Boseman first discovered the Black Panther comic books
while a student at Howard University, and he wanted to play
the character before any film project was announced.
That worked out perfectly for Marvel. Studio chief Kevin
Feige said Boseman was their first choice for the role.
He is an incredibly talented actor who possesses all of the
qualities that we wanted to inject into the character, Feige
said. Weve been seeding the notion of the Black Panther
and the nation of Wakanda all the way back to Iron Man 2,
so it really felt like the time was right to bring in a character

that had his own agenda.

In Captain America: Civil War, TChalla/Black Panther
stands apart from the other Avengers as they argue over
whether to accept government oversight. He cant be distracted or dissuaded from his own personal mission.
Marvels first black superhero was introduced
in comic books in 1966, but Captain
America: Civil War marks his cinematic
debut. Black Panther will headline his
own Marvel movie in 2018, but the cat
has Bosemans tongue when it comes
to spilling details about it.
He wont say if the script will be
based on the new Black Panther
comic-book series by celebrated
journalist and author Ta-Nehisi
Coates, which debuted last
month. Creed and Fruitvale
Station writer-director Ryan
Coogler is confirmed to direct
the film.
Boseman is willing to
share what he put into creating the character for the
screen in Civil War, from
working with two dialect
coaches on TChallas
Wakandan accent to studying various martial arts for
Panthers stealthy, catlike
fighting style.
He embraces the physicality of the role as a means of understanding it.
The physical part is what makes it fun for me and helps me

get inside the characters, he said.

The spirit of the character is
going to begin to come out.
Boseman trained on the
baseball field to play
Jackie Robinson and
danced eight hours a day to
portray James Brown. For the
Panther role, he practiced capoeira,
karate, kung-Fu and jiu-jitsu.
Part of it with Panther is theres an
unpredictability, he said.
Bosemans next job is decidedly less
physical but no less demanding hes
playing Thurgood Marshall in an upcoming
biopic of the first black Supreme Court
justice. Still, Boseman plans to use
his body. Hell lose 25 Panther
pounds to play the legal superhero, and exercise
his powers of
speech.
Theres just
as much gymnastics, just as
much spectacle
in the spoken word as
there is in the physical body. The tongue is a muscle, too,
Boseman said. It really doesnt matter whether Im running
or doing capoeira or Im speaking long speeches, its an
exercise regardless.

As our interest waned in the prospect of yet another

supervillain threatening to destroy an entire city or planet,
Marvel smartly pivoted and turned the conflict inward. With
the near inevitability of a civilian death toll any time the
Avengers are involved in an incident, the UN steps in with
an accord proposing regulation and oversight. Essentially
now, the Avengers need permission before they jump into
action.
Tony Stark/Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.) is for it. Steve
Rogers/Captain America (Chris Evans) is against it. And
the rest of the Avengers must decide where they side, leading
to some interesting alliances like Black Widow (Scarlett
Johansson) going against her pal Cap, Hawkeye (Jeremy
Renner) positioning against his friend Black Widow, and so
on.
Some of it is rather silly, especially the villain Zemo,
whose somewhat nonsense plan leaves a lot to chance and
coincidence. Daniel Brhl, as always, is great in the role,
but still little more than a plot device as though the
screenwriters thought that it would be too dark for the good
guys to fracture without a push from a manipulative outsider.
The good news is that this Avengers movie in disguise
keeps everything rather intimate for a superhero movie.
There are only so many times these films can get away with
scenes of massive destruction the thrill (and horror) of
the spectacle starts to dull. In Civil War the combat is
mostly hand-to-hand, the stakes are personal, and the set
pieces small. The showdown of the superhero teams is confined to an airport runway, for instance.
That airport sequence, by the way, is exceptionally entertaining. Its both witty and visually engaging and worth the

price of admission. Cap, Falcon (Anthony Mackie), Scarlet

Witch (Elizabeth Olsen), Hawkeye, Ant-Man (Paul Rudd)
and the Winter Soldier (Sebastian Stan) face off against Iron
Man, Black Widow, War Machine (Don Cheadle), Vision
(Paul Bettany) and the two newbies, Spider-Man (Tom
Holland) and Black Panther (Chadwick Boseman).
Its also hard not to be a little cynical about the obvious
corporate machinations of Civil War, like the introduction of Spider-Man and Black Panther two characters who
we already know are getting their own movies. Every
moment with them feels like a trailer, and like the best trailers, we see only the finest stuff. Civil War dares you to not
be won over by Hollands youthful comedic charm and
Bosemans depth as the stoic prince in the killer suit.
We also can conjecture, for instance, that Spider-Man
doesnt ultimately have much of an impact on the plot
because the actual Spider-Man movie will eventually come
from Sony, not Disney. Does any of this really matter if the
movies are good? No, of course not. We just know too much
about the roadmap to make any of it seem spontaneous, surprising and organic. Characters cant just break out from the
pack on their own merits. If they could, Marvel probably
would have resurrected the idea for a Black Widow movie by
now.
The thing is, Marvel makes it funny, and that charm and
care is what has and will keep audiences coming back over
and over again.
Captain America: Civil War, a Walt Disney Studios
release, is rated PG-13 by the Motion Picture Association of
America for extended sequences of violence, action and
mayhem. Running time: 147 minutes. Three stars out of
four.

MENLO S CHOOL MOCK TRIAL

WINNERS HONORED BY SAN MATEO
COUNTY BAR ASSOCIATION AT LAW
DAY CELEBRATION. Law Day 2016 was
celebrated April 29 at the Crowne Plaza
Hotel in Burlingame with a luncheon at
which Appellate Justice Therese Stewart was
the speaker. Law Day, designated as May 1,
is a national day set aside to celebrate the
rule of law and underscore how law and the
legal process contribute to the freedoms
that all Americans share. The San Mateo
County Bar Association event featured the
recognition of county high school students
who took part in the 2015 State of
California Mock Trial Competition. The
San Mateo County champion mock trial
team is from Menlo School in Atherton.
CREATING COURTROOM WARRIORS: THE COACHES BEHIND THE
WINNING TEAM. As with all competitive activities, coaching is an essential part
of the mock trial experience and this years
winning Menlo School team enjoyed seasoned and enthusiastic guidance. Menlo
teacher and longtime team coach Dan Devitt
said: Mock Trial is one of the rare moments
as a teacher where one gets to observe true
engagement and intellectual passion practiced as a sport outside the classroom. It has
been a privilege to be teacher adviser to the
students of Menlo these past 16 years.
Being an adviser to Menlo Mock Trial has
been one of the single most rewarding experiences I have had as a teacher. Watching our
head coaches, Thom Scher and Chris Lagod,
turn shy, introverted students into polished,
confident courtroom warriors has become
an annual tradition that has made Menlo one
of the best programs in the country. The
countless hours our volunteer coaches and

dedicated students have put into perfecting

their craft is apparent not just by Menlos
record (60-0 County record and top 10 state
finishes the past six years) but by the polish and composure the students demonstrate
inside and outside the courtroom.
ABOUT THE MOCK TRIAL PROGRAM. Each year, the Constitutional
Rights Foundation creates and produces a
new set of mock trial materials based on an
important issue facing Americas youth.
The materials include a hypothetical criminal case, including summaries of case law,
witness statements, official exhibits and
simplified rules of evidence; lesson plans
on the central issues in the case; and competition rules and guidelines. With the
assistance of teacher-sponsors and attorney
coaches, CRFs Mock Trial program
engages over 8,000 student-participants
across California. Students actively experience the excitement of working in teams,
exchanging ideas, setting goals, and examining issues, while interacting with positive role models from their communities.
Each year thousands of members from
Californias bar and bench volunteer their
time to make the mock trial an educational
and exciting experience for students.
Attorneys serve in a variety of roles, acting

Questions arise on California

doctors response to Prince
By Carla K. Johnson
THE ASSOCITED PRESS

Was a California doctor acting legally

when he sent his son to Princes home with
a drug often used to treat people addicted to
opiates such as prescription painkillers?
Dr. Howard Kornfeld may have been trying to help, but he was not licensed to practice medicine in Minnesota and was not registered to care for patients there via
telemedicine, as the state requires. His son,
Andrew Kornfeld, who has been described as
a pre-med student, was not a licensed prescriber.
The pair may need to rely on loopholes
and broad, generous readings of federal and
state laws to justify why the younger
Kornfeld carried buprenorphine to
Minnesota on an April 20 redeye flight.
Attorneys and physicians have described
the action as unusual and even absurd.

Dozens of doctors are

authorized to prescribe
buprenorphine
in
Minnesota,
so
its
unclear why Kornfeld felt
he needed to send his son
with the drug, which is
used to ease withdrawal
and cravings.
The Kornfelds did not
Prince
respond to several messages this week from the Associated Press.
No one has suggested that Prince took the
buprenorphine provided by them.
Their attorney, William Mauzy, has said
that he believes Andrew Kornfeld who
placed the 911 call when Prince was found
unresponsive at his home is protected
from any charges by a Minnesota law that
generally shields anyone seeking medical
assistance for a person overdosing on
drugs.

FUNDS
Continued from page 1
The smaller, more manageable initiatives expected soon to be funded
include a college scholarship for local
students, a community enhancement
grant program and a variety of other
benefits
including
streetscape
improvements downtown and the construction of a neighborhood park,
among other efforts.
Foundation members expressed
enthusiasm for the opportunity to
begin spending some of the money in
the community, nearly four years after
it was paid by the utility company.
This is the foundations first output
of investment out into the community, said foundation President Nancy
Kraus. This is very, very, very exciting.
The scholarship application deadline has passed and the foundation
plans to announce the seven winners
who will split the $100,000 pot during a ceremony Friday, June 1.
Of the 45 applicants, 40 sought to
enroll from high school in a community college or four-year university
and five intended to transfer from a
community college.
A panel of 11 anonymous volunteers
reviewed the applications and will
select the winners.

BUDGET
Continued from page 1
Projected revenues for fiscal year
2017-18 are about $37. 1 million
fueled by an expected $1 million more
in hotel taxes than it generated this
year as the city just broke ground on a
hotel project on Industrial Road.
The city spent $10.1 million on
salary and benefits this year and is
expected to spend $11.7 million for
fiscal year 2016-17, which begins
July 1, and $12.3 million the year
after, according to Mendenhalls report
to the council.
The council is expected to approve a
final budget June 13.
Although the citys expenditures are

The foundation has also earmarked

$200, 000 to finance a grant fund
which will pay toward community
enhancement programs.
Programs which focus on areas in
San Bruno such as sports and recreation, open space, education, youth
activity, public spaces, human and
social services, economic vitality,
transit, housing and a variety of other
issues would be able to apply for the
grant funding.
The foundation expects the deadline
for applications to land in the fall,
with hopes of beginning to allocate
some of the funds before the end of the
year, according to a report.
Foundation board member Patricia
Bohm, who helps oversee formation
of the grant program, said she was
ready for the initiative to get off the
ground.
Were really excited for this to
launch, she said.
Eight grants worth $25,000 will
ultimately be distributed, and interested parties can apply online through
the foundations website.
Foundation members see a natural
transition in focus from the scholarship program, which began in January
and will end in June, with the intent of
shifting into development of the
grant program in the second half of
the year, according to the report.
The city and foundation also plan to
pool resources and collaboratively
work on a variety of efforts.

Up to $300,000 may be granted by

the foundation to the city for a comprehensive study of the capital projects and infrastructure fixes which
need to be addressed.
Residents have identified a variety
of large projects, such as construction
of a new community center, library or
community pool, among other ideas,
as developments they would like
financed with the fund, but the foundation has not yet developed a timeline
or budget for such initiatives.
An additional $170,000 could be
spent in conjunction with the city to
improve pedestrian safety along
Cherry and San Bruno avenues downtown.
Development of a city-owned property along Florida Avenue into a community park could be a target of nearly
$200,000 in contribution from the
foundation as well.
The foundation is also seeking to
spend $30,000 to host a community
celebration, which could be folded
into the citys annual summer Posy
Parade.
The City Council has discussed the
variety of collaborative projects, and
officials have expressed an appetite
for pursuing them, according to the
report.
The restitution money managed by
the foundation is separate from the
$50 million trust agreement paid by
PG&E to the Crestmoor neighborhood.

slightly more than expected revenue

the next two years, the operating
budget becomes balanced as cash is
returned to the general fund from other
funds such as the sewer fund.
When it comes to mending the citys
infrastructure, the city expects to
spend $7.5 million over the next two
years on rehabilitating the citys
sewer system. Its expected to spend
another $10.5 million on the system
the two years after, according to
Mendenhalls report.
Street resurfacing costs are expected
to be $1. 4 million next year,
$750, 000 the next two years and
$700,000 the year after.
Replacing restrooms at city parks is
expected to cost $1.6 million.
A new project proposed for next year
is to bring traffic calming to St.

Francis Way at a cost of $500,000.

Storm drainage improvements are
expected to cost $1.75 million over
the next two years.
Another new project next year will
be the Highlands Park Playground
replacement
expected to
cost
$750,000. Improvements at Laureola
Park are expected to cost $600,000.
In the five year plan, the city intends
to spend $3 million to fund the
replacement of Fire Station 16 on
Alameda de las Pulgas.
In total, however, the city has $169
million in capital improvement projects it wants to complete that are
unfunded.
The City Council meets in a special
study session 9 a.m., Friday, May 6,
City Hall, 600 Elm St., San Carlos.

REPORT TO COMMUNITY
May 6, 2016
Contact Person: Matthew Zito, Chief Facilities Officer
The Citizens Bond Oversight Committee has issued its first report for calendar year 2015 on the

Members of the Citizens Bond Oversight Committee are pleased to report to the community the bond funds are being spent in accordance with the bond language approved by voters. Complete financial information is available on the District website www.seq.org/construction.
Sequoia Union High School District contracted with Chavan and Associates to perform the required Proposition 39/Measure A audit report. The audit covered fiscal year ending June 30,
2015 which was reviewed by the Citizens Bond Oversight Committee on December 15, 2015.
The audit examined internal control over financial reporting, compliance and other matters to include verifying that the bond proceeds were deposited in the Districts name and invested in accordance with applicable legal requirements; tested payments made to the architectural services;
and tested approximately 82% of the 2014-15 expenditures to ensure they were valid, allowable
and accurate. The audit determined that the District complied, in all material respects, with the
compliance requirements that could have a direct and material effect on the Proposition
39/Measure A bond program for the fiscal year ending, June 30, 2015.
Construction and renovations projects currently underway are:
-Carlmont New Classroom Building (10 classrooms)
-Menlo-Atherton New Classroom Buildings (21 classrooms)
-Sequoia New Classroom Building (10 classrooms)
-Sequoia New Culinary Arts and Multi-Use classrooms
-East Palo Alto Academy, New Gymnasium
Construction and renovation projects planned are:
-Carlmont Weight Room Addition, Kitchen and MPR upgrades, and New Modular Building
-Menlo-Atherton New STEM Classroom and Food Services Building, and Guidance Office Renovation
-Sequoia Electrical and HVAC Upgrades, Music Building Renovation, Practice Field Renovation
w/Lights
-Woodside New Classroom Building (10 classrooms)
-Redwood New Classroom Building and gymnasium /Culinary Arts Classroom/Student Union
-New Small High School at 150 Jefferson Drive, Menlo-Park (15 classrooms)
The $265M is being issued in conformance with the districts timeline for construction projects.
The first bond proceeds were received October 22, 2014. The District plans to sell a second series of bond in 2017; the amount is yet to be determined. The remaining bond authority is
$153,000,000.

Union High School Districts, Board of Trustees on May 11, 2016 regarding the committees proceeding and activities from December 2014 through December 2015. That report is available at

Continued from page 1
really encouraging to see the bids coming
in and a package of funding being put
together to get this long-awaited project
underway, said Adina Levin, co-founder of
the nonprofit Friends of Caltrain. Its
exciting to see and it will be so beneficial
to this region and corridor.
The board members didnt comment publicly during the meeting on the increased
expense or discuss the projects reliance
on $713 million from high-speed rail and
$647 million in not-yet-awarded federal
grant money.
Board member Adrienne Tissier, a San
Mateo County supervisor, said shes
pleased the important transportation project is proceeding adding, I want to thank
all the partners for really coming together.
In a press release sent after the meeting,
Caltrain Executive Director Jim Hartnett
stressed the regional as well as state significance of electrifying the corridor.
Our region, along with our federal and
state partners, has demonstrated a deep
commitment to this project, Hartnett
wrote in a press release. The Caltrain
Modernization Program is the most transformative project this corridor has ever
undertaken. It offers unique economic,
environmental and mobility benefits to

trade-offs to accommodating differing
needs as it plans to spend $618 million on
customized electric trains that will greatly
reduce diesel emissions.
After conducting surveys and hosting
public meetings on the design of the new
trains over the last few years with more
to come officials noted public priorities
centered around increasing capacity by
offering more seating and standing space.
Providing restrooms and space for bicycles
were also top priorities, but would result in
compromises, according to staff.
One of the potential biggest changes
officials are considering is whether to keep
restrooms in cars, which has cost and space
challenges, or to invest in adding facilities
at stations.
The discussion generally is centered
around how to strike the balance between
seats and standees, and bathrooms and general competition for onboard space in light

the region and it is a key link in a highspeed rail network that will transform the
way we think about transportation in
California.
Approval is still needed by the governing boards of a variety of transportation
agencies in Santa Clara and San Francisco
counties, the Metropolitan Transportation
Commission and the California HighSpeed Rail Authority. Staff anticipates lining up enough funds to proceed with hiring
a contractor in July, but will have to wait
until the end of the year before finding out
whether it is awarded $647 million from
the Federal Transit Administrations Core
Capacity Grant program.
April Chan, chief of planning and grants
for the San Mateo County Transportation
Authority, said the revised funding agreement shows a consistent level of financial
contributions from the varied sources as
was originally agreed upon several years
ago. Having worked with staff from the
various transit agencies, she was optimistic the seven-party agreement would be
approved by the partner entities.
This basically reflects those many
months of discussions, Chan said.
The entire Modernization Program,
which includes a new federally-mandated
control system, electrifying the tracks and
purchasing new trains, is now an estimated $2.2 billion undertaking. According to
the agreement, the project needs $264
million in local funds, $59 million from
regional agencies, $863 million from the
of the growth weve experienced,
Bouchard said, later noting one bathroom
in essence equals 12 seats or 24 standees.
And thats quite significant if you look at it
per car.
Preliminary estimates show maintaining
one restroom per train would cost about
$2.8 million for the entire fleet, not including regular maintenance costs, Bouchard
said.
In contrast, creating a basic restroom
facility at a station would start around
$134,000; however, other complications
such as working with cities for water connections and safety concerns are factors as
well, Bouchard said.
Those who might be most affected by not
having onboard restrooms include riders
with long commutes, fans attending events
such as Giants or San Jose Sharks games,
as well as customers unexpectedly stuck on
the train when fatalities occur on the
tracks.
Belmont resident George Kranen said
having just one restroom on the electric
trains would be grossly inadequate and
raised concerns about those who are stuck
for hours on the train while transit police

state and $1 billion in federal funds.

Caltrain electrification has long been
tied to the states controversial highspeed rail project since the two decided to
share the tracks running along the
Peninsula. Electrifying 52 miles of tracks
between San Jose and San Francisco would
not only have environmental benefits and
support increased ridership, it could pave
the way for the states bullet train to carry
riders further north.
But since the High-Speed Rail Authority
has yet to sell billions of dollars in voterapproved bonds while several lawsuits
were pending, the $600 million it is supposed to contribute to Caltrain electrification has yet to arrive. As part of the new
funding agreement, locals are now seeking
investigate fatal trespassing incidents.
I can imagine a lot of people shedding
yellow tears on those trains with only one
bathroom, Kranen said.
Others noted having a single restroom
could be acceptable if it meant increasing
capacity for riders to have more standing or
seating space.
Another group to consider is those seeking to take bikes aboard Caltrain. Even on
its newly added diesel-fleet cars, advocates
have urged officials to set aside more room
for bicyclists who are often bumped from
their scheduled trains due to space constraints.
Adina Levin with Friends of Caltrain said
she hopes there will be space for people to
bring bikes aboard the new electric trains,
but was also supportive of adding parking
or wayside facilities at the station.
Ultimately, the board should conduct more

Friday May 6, 2016

an additional $113 million from highspeed rail, which could potentially be

sourced from the authoritys allocation of
cap-and-trade funds.
During Thursdays meeting, some members of the public expressed skepticism
whether relying on high-speed rail was
wise.
Theres a $600 million hole in this
budget currently, said San Jose resident
Roland Lebrun, noting high-speed rails
legal troubles. Its blocked in the court,
its not going anywhere.
Lebrun also questioned why the cost
estimates had risen nearly $500 million
over the last few years.
Other public speakers urged Caltrain to
forge ahead noting the economy has
changed over the yearslong planning
process.
Even though this project has risen in
cost, I still believe that we dont have any
other choice but to push it forward, said
Redwood City resident Andy Chow, who
noted the increased ridership. When you
have a project that got delayed so long, as
we all know in the transit planning business, the further you get things rolling,
the more costs that add to it and with inflation. The ridership is bursting at the
seams, at the doors, its so crowded. So
this is the right thing to do and if we keep
pushing it further, it only makes things
worse.

public outreach as many bicyclists are
skeptical whether wayside facilities would
happen, Levin said.
Bouchard said Caltrain received a lot of
requests from the community to weigh in
on how onboard bike space will be configured and staff will outline a public input
process in the near future.
As part of its bicycle parking management plan, Caltrain has committed $3 million toward station improvements and will
have an implementation approach by early
next year, Bouchard said.
Staff will continue outreach in the coming weeks and the board is expected to
make a decision about the restrooms in
June before awarding a contract in July. If
its funding plan is confirmed, the new
trains would begin to roll out in 2020 with
more deliveries in 2021.
