Trump: There is no drought


Presidential candidate accuses California officials of denying water to Central Valley farmers
By Jill Colvin and
Ellen Knickmeyer
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

FRESNO

Presumptive
Republican presidential nominee
Donald Trump told California voters Friday that he can solve their
water crisis, declaring, There is
no drought.
Speaking at a rally in Fresno,
Calif., Trump accused state offi-

cials of denying water to Central


Valley farmers so they can send it
out to sea to protect a certain
kind of three-inch fish.
Were going to solve your
water problem. You have a water
problem that is so insane. It is so
ridiculous where theyre taking the
water and shoving it out to sea,
Trump said to cheers at a rally that

San Carlos sets priorities


DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT

The San Carlos City Council adopted a


sweeping set of goals and objectives that may
lead to the adoption of commercial linkage
fees to support the construction of affordable
housing and possible future ballot measures
for infrastructure improvement projects.
The council adopted a Strategic Plan
Monday night for 2016-17 that also sets the
councils goals and objectives related to public safety, transportation, parking and public
outreach.
When it comes to affordable housing, the
goal is to build more multi-family housing
along the Caltrain corridor and to take a more
active role regionally in encouraging and
developing affordable housing.
Linkage fees were adopted by the San Mateo
County Board of Supervisors Tuesday, May
24, and have been in place a few months now
in Redwood City.
Developers will be charged a fee per square
foot of the project to set aside into an affordable housing fund.

Colleen Eva McAvoy


Colleen Eva McAvoy passed away at her San Carlos home on
Saturday, May 21, surrounded by family and friends. She was
56 years old.

Nexus studies were conducted by all cities in


the county to connect the development of
commercial projects to the need to build
affordable housing.
Another goal is to possibly contribute to
regional funding sources such as the
Association of Bay Area Governments or
nonprofits to help fund the construction of
affordable housing projects in other cities.
The city is also looking to partner with HIP
Housing to explore an affordable housing
project on Cherry Street, according to a staff
report prepared by Assistant City Manager
Tara Peterson.
Whether the city will seek a ballot measure
for infrastructure improvement projects will
be decided by this fall, according to Petersons
report.
The city may implement improvement districts, assessment districts, community facilities districts or attempt to get a parcel tax or
bond measure passed to address the citys
infrastructure needs.
Another goal is to maximize the use of the
Youth and Adult Community centers and to

explore new uses for the community room at


the public library.
The Parks and Recreation Department will
also explore lights at Burton Park east and
Stadium fields, according to Petersons report.
The council is also planning for another
parking structure downtown and add a surface
parking lot on South Laurel Street. Electric
vehicle charging stations are also proposed in
the library garage and at Wheeler Plaza, the
soon-to-be-home to a mixed-use development
with housing and retail.
The city also plans to build and design a
new interchange at Highway 101 and Holly
Street that will also feature a pedestrian overcrossing and calm traffic on St. Francis Way.
Improvements are also planned for Beverly
Drive and San Carlos Avenue, according to
Petersons report.
Another goal is to enhance pedestrian and
bicycle accessibility throughout the city.
Many items on the strategic plan list, however, will need final City Council approval to
implement.

Friday to two additional felony charges and


could face life in prison after prosecutors were
able to consolidate the two cases, said District
Attorney Steve Wagstaffe.
Moreno was about to stand trial in February
on five felonies for allegedly molesting the
older child starting when she was 12 years old
from Jan. 1, 2008, to Dec. 31 2010. The girl
eventually told her mother and Moreno was
arrested around March 2015, Wagstaffe said.
The second victim came forward within the

last few months alleging she too had been


molested over the course of several years starting when she was about 8 years old in 2009,
Wagstaffe said.
His charges range from substantial sexual
conduct with a child under 14 to continued sexual abuse. He remains in custody on $500,000
bail. Moreno pleaded not guilty to all charges
and is scheduled for a pretrial conference July 20
and for jury trial Aug. 1, Wagstaffe said.

Parents of woman killed in San Francisco sues city, feds


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO The parents of a


woman killed on a San Francisco pier have sued
the city and two federal agencies, accusing
them of contributing to her death because the
man charged in the slaying was in the country
illegally.
Kate Steinles parents filed the wrongful
death lawsuit Friday, accusing the Sheriffs
Department of failing to notify federal immigration officials that it was releasing Juan
Francisco Lopez-Sanchez from jail.
They also are suing Immigration and

Local briefs
Man arrested for
shooting alleged accomplice
A Redwood City man was arrested for
attempted murder after he allegedly shot a
former accomplice with whom he reportedly
committed another crime just months earlier.
Edwin Elias Soto, an 18-year-old
Redwood City man, has been charged with
attempted murder for shooting Luis AlvarezTovilla around 1:40 p.m. Monday, May 23.
Alvarez-Tovilla, 27, had just finished help-

Customs Enforcement and the U.S. Bureau of


Land Management. A BLM ranger reported that
a gun was stolen from his car while it was
parked in downtown San Francisco.
Lopez-Sanchez says he found the gun and it
fired when he picked it up, striking Steinle, 32,
in the back. He has pleaded not guilty to a second-degree murder charge.
Steinles shooting death in July thrust San
Francisco into the national debate over immigration.
Lopez-Sanchez was transferred to the city jail
to face a marijuana sales charge after he completed a nearly four-year federal prison sentence

for illegal re-entry into the country in March.


The district attorney dropped charges and the
sheriffs department released Lopez-Sanchez,
ignoring an ICE request to keep him behind
bars.
San Franciscos so-called sanctuary policy, which was tweaked and re-affirmed last
week, bars city employees from cooperating
with federal immigration officials in deportation efforts. The law dates to 1989.
The sheriff at the time cited the law in defending the release of Lopez-Sanchez, a repeat drug
offender and habitual border crosser.
Advocates of sanctuary protections say a

clear division between local law enforcement


and federal immigration authorities is needed to
foster trust.
Calling the entire episode a tragic series of
events, the lawsuit seeks unspecified damages.
Steinles parents allege that the sheriff had
an obligation to alert immigration officials
that Lopez-Sanchez was being released, despite
the citys sanctuary policy. The lawsuit also
alleges that ICE knew Lopez-Sanchez was in
the San Francisco jail and that agents should
have taken him into their custody regardless of
the sheriffs actions.

in the leg in front of a home on the 400
block of Seventh Avenue in Redwood City,
said District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe.
A nearby business caught the shooting on
a surveillance camera, Wagstaffe said,
adding the motive was still unclear.
The two were arrested in mid-November
2015 for reportedly assaulting another man
with a metal pipe outside the Chavez Meat
Market in unincorporated Redwood City on
a Monday evening. The victim called the
Sheriff's Office a few days later when
Alvarez-Tovilla and Soto again confronted
and threatened him on the street. Deputies
responded and arrested the duo in the meat

market parking lot.


Alvarez-Tovilla was transported to a hospital after the shooting Monday afternoon
and is expected to make a full recovery,
Wagstaffe said.
Soto appeared in court Friday and was
assigned to the private defender program.
He is scheduled to enter a plea June 2,
Wagstaffe said. Soto remains in custody on
$2 million bail.

In an earlier burglary, a suspect entered a

VALLEJO, Authorities on Friday narrowed


their frantic search for a missing teenager to a
remote area about 65 miles from where she was
last seen being dragged by an armed acquaintance who later died in a gun battle with police.
The Solano County Sheriffs Office said
Friday that new information was prompting
investigators to focus their search for 15-yearold Pearl Pinson along a road that traverses
Sonoma Coast State Park near the town of
Jenner.
Sheriffs Deputy Christine Castillo did not
say what the nature of the new information was
but said it came out of the investigation into the
San Francisco Bay Area girls disappearance.
The search for the missing girl has been complicated by the death Thursday of the young
man suspected of abducting her Wednesday as
she walked to school.

slain student who was shot in the head and
stabbed on a hiking trail that borders a country club community.
The sheriffs office identified the slain boy
Friday as Edwin Josue Ramirez Guerra, 17, of
San Rafael.
Sheriffs officials arent naming the suspects because they are juveniles, Lt. Doug
Pittman said. They also havent revealed a
motive for the attack.
Investigators are looking for another
Novato High student who was seen leaving
the scene of Wednesdays violence and also is

Southern California after they spotted his car


and exchanged gunfire with him as they say he
attempted to get away.
This case spans from Northern to Southern
California, Solano County Sheriff spokeswoman Castillo said earlier Friday.
A witness saw Castro armed with a gun and
pulling a screaming Pinson across a freeway
overpass in the city of Vallejo, where they both
lived. The witness reported hearing a gunshot
while running for help.
The sheriffs department said Friday that surveillance cameras captured images of Castros
car traveling Thursday morning in Marin
County, about 25 miles from where Pinson was
taken and 300 miles away from where he was
shot and killed hours later. The gold Saturn
sedan was spotted on a freeway near San
Francisco Bay, and authorities also were searching the waters edge.
Authorities said the two teens knew each
other but emphasized that they believe Pinson

was taken unwillingly. Rose Pinson, the missing girls older sister, said she had heard
Castros name but had never met him and
described him as an acquaintance, according to
the Vallejo Times-Herald.
Everyone is looking for Pearl. We arent
doing so good, Rose Pinson said at a vigil
Thursday. Shes always happy, she loves to
laugh, loves to ride her long skateboard.
Blood and Pearl Pinsons cellphone were
found on the pedestrian overpass where she was
taken Wednesday. A day later and hundreds of
miles away, Southern California sheriffs
deputies spotted and pursued Castros car.
Castro abandoned the sedan about 45 miles
north of Santa Barbara and shot at deputies as he
ran into a mobile home park, the sheriff said.
He briefly barricaded himself there, but a
woman inside was able to escape safely.
He stole a gray pickup from the house and
opened fire at deputies again before they shot
and killed him, authorities said.

considered a suspect.
The surviving victim was shot in the chest
but managed to call 911 from the trail. He is in
stable condition, Pittman said.
Novato is about 29 miles north of San
Francisco and has increasingly served as a suburb for families priced out of the city or looking
for more space.
The high school enrolls about 1,300 students
in grades 9-12 and has a student population that
is 53 percent white, 34 percent Hispanic, 4 percent Asian and 3 percent African American.
Although the median household income in
Novato approaches $80,000, 35 percent of the
students at Novato High are considered socioeconomically disadvantaged.
Novato Police Capt. Jamie Knox told the San
Francisco
Chronicle
on
Friday
(http://bit.ly/1U1SNsa ) that investigators are
exploring whether the hiking trail attack may
be linked to a female students allegation that a
male classmate had sexually assaulted her near
campus on May 18.
The homicide occurred in the sheriff departments jurisdiction, Knox said. They are working with our detectives to try to put all the
pieces together.

SACRAMENTO California lawmakers


have adopted a controversial plan proposed
by Gov. Jerry Brown in response to the
states affordable housing crisis.
The legislation that passed the Assembly
Friday on a 46-7 vote would fast-track building permits and waive some environmental
reviews for high-density projects that
include affordable housing.
Browns proposal seeks to bypass local
politics and restrictions that have consistently blocked projects, contributing to the
worst housing shortage in the nation.
It was introduced by Assemblyman
Richard Bloom, a Democrat from Santa
Monica. It now moves to the Senate.
The legislation has faced strong opposition from some environmental groups and
local activists who see it as an effort to
weaken Californias notoriously rigorous
environmental quality law. In San
Francisco, civic leaders have responded
with their own alternate proposal.

GOP unites under Never Hillary banner


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Donald Trumps best ally


in winning over skeptical Republicans is
turning out to be Hillary Clinton.
Having overcome a multimillion-dollar
Never Trump campaign aimed at blocking
him from the Republican nomination, hes
now benefiting from a wave of GOP donors,
party leaders, voters and conservative groups
that are uniting under a new banner: Never
Hillary.
Nothing unites Republicans better than a
Clinton, says Scott Reed, a political strategist for the U.S. Chamber of Commerce who
has advised previous GOP campaigns. While
Reed says there remain many unknowns
about Trump, he adds that the knowns about
Hillary are very powerful motivators to
Republicans.
Thanks to Republicans deep disdain for the
likely Democratic nominee, Trump is piling

up those kinds of lukewarm GOP endorsements.


Florida Sen. Marco
Rubio, who called Trump a
dangerous con artist during his own failed presidential campaign, now
says hes willing to get
involved in the general
Hillary Clinton election to stop Clinton.
If you can live with a
Clinton presidency for 4 years, thats your
right, Rubio wrote on Twitter Friday. I cant
and will do what I can to prevent it.
Later in the day he reiterated on Twitter that
his assistance should not be viewed as proTrump. I said I would be honored to help
party beat Hillary, he wrote.
Never Hillary graced the subject line of a
new Republican National Committee fundraising email that had nary a mention of Trump.
Super PACs advised by Trump-skeptic Karl

Rove are using the hashtag NeverHillary on


Twitter to promote online videos about her
perceived scandals even as Rove says the
groups arent likely to spend money boosting
Trump.
Last week when the National Rifle
Association endorsed Trump, the announcement came without much of a sales pitch for
him. But it did include a blunt message for the
5 million members about Clinton.
Noting the heated GOP primary campaign,
Chris Cox, the NRAs chief lobbyist, said at
the organizations convention last week,
Were there differences between candidates for
the nomination? Of course. Are there valid
arguments in favor or some over others? Sure.
Will any of it matter if Hillary Clinton wins in
November? Not one bit.
For the NRA and other Republican-leaning
groups, Clinton has become a reason to look
past Trumps spotty record on conservative
issues.

Trump rebukes nations only Latina governor


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SANTA FE, N.M. It was a stunning rebuke


even by Donald Trumps standards aimed
at the nations only Latina governor at a political rally in her home state of New Mexico.
Trump chastised Republican Gov. Susana
Martinez for not doing her job when it came to
unemployment, federal food aid and even containing the Syrian refugee crisis while he
stumped at a raucous political rally this week in
the nations most Hispanic state. Martinez,
who has not endorsed the presumptive GOP
presidential nominee, skipped the event in
Albuquerque, citing a busy schedule.
The public spat dampened any lingering
speculation that Martinez might be picked as
vice president to attract more female and minority voters to the Republican ticket. It also
thrust the second-term governor into the com-

pany of other prominent Republicans who


have withstood attacks as Trump attempts to
consolidate support ahead of the final round of
primaries that includes New Mexico and
California.
Key politicians rushed to Martinezs defense,
including U.S. House Speaker Paul Ryan,
Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, former Florida
Gov. Jeb Bush and Florida Sen. Marco Rubio,
whom Martinez endorsed for the presidential
nomination in March as his campaign faltered.
Susana Martinez is a great governor, she
turned deficits into surpluses, she cut taxes,
Ryan told reporters this week.
Bush tweeted that Martinez is the future of
our party, and Walker said Martinez had driven
conservative reforms in a state that President
Barack Obama won twice.
At Tuesdays rally in Albuquerque, where protesters hurled burning T-shirts and overran barAdvertisement

ricades, Trump described New Mexico as a state


beset by unemployment and rising dependence
on federal food assistance, placing the blame
squarely on Martinez.
Your governor has got to do a better job,
Trump said. Shes not doing the job. Hey,
maybe Ill run for governor of New Mexico. Ill
get this place going.
Asked about Martinez at a news conference
Thursday, Trump acknowledged that she had
favored another Republican candidate but added,
I imagine shell come over to my side.
A Martinez spokesman said the governor
will not be bullied into supporting Trump,
describing the accusations as political pot
shots. The governors office fired back that the
billionaire businessman had used economic
data dating to 2000 to exaggerate trends while
overlooking Martinezs efforts to tie food benefits to work-related requirements.

Unprecedented excitement at

ORLANDO, Fla. The deep unpopularity

An employee at the Deupree House in

Heimlich says it made him appreciate how

Obama uses Hiroshima visit


to take stand against nukes
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

HIROSHIMA, Japan With an unflinching look back at a painful history, President


Barack Obama stood on the hallowed ground
of Hiroshima on Friday and declared it a fitting place to summon people everywhere to
embrace the vision of a world without nuclear
weapons.
As the first American president to visit the
city where the U.S. dropped the first atomic
bomb, Obama came to acknowledge but
not apologize for an act many Americans
see as a justified end to a brutal war that Japan
started with a sneak attack at Pearl Harbor.
Some 140,000 people died after a U.S. warplane targeted wartime Hiroshima on Aug. 6,
1945, and 70,000 more perished in
Nagasaki, where a second bomb was dropped
three days later. Japan soon surrendered.
Their souls speak to us, Obama said of
the dead. They ask us to look inward, to take
stock of who we are and who we might
become.
With a lofty speech and a warm embrace for
an elderly survivor, Obama renewed the call
for a nuclear-free future that he had first laid
out in a 2009 speech in Prague.
This time, Obama spoke as a far more
experienced president than the one who had
employed his upbeat Yes, we can campaign
slogan on the first go-round.
The president, who has made uneven
progress on his nuclear agenda over the past
seven years, spoke of the courage to escape
the logic of fear as he held out hope for diligent, incremental steps to reduce nuclear
stockpiles.
We may not realize this goal in my lifetime, but persistent effort can roll back the
possibility of catastrophe, he said.
Obama spent less than two hours in
Hiroshima but seemed to accomplish what he

came for. It was a choreographed performance meant to close old wounds without
inflaming new passions on a subject still
fraught after all these years.
In a solemn ceremony on a sunwashed
afternoon, Obama and Japanese Prime
Minister Shinzo Abe placed wreaths before
the cenotaph, a simple arched stone monument at Hiroshimas Peace Memorial Park.
Only the clicking of camera shutters intruded
on the moment as Obama closed his eyes and
briefly bowed his head.
Then, after each leader gave brief remark,
Obama approached two aging survivors of
the bombing who were seated in the front
row, standing in for the thousands still seared
by memories of that day.

Alibaba won and lost a


friend in Washington
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SHANGHAI In 2011, a respected anti-counterfeiting coalition in Washington escalated its fight against the Chinese ecommerce giant Alibaba, saying its websites served as a 24-hour
market for counterfeiters and pirates and should be blacklisted.
Fast forward to 2016. The same lobbying group, the
International Anti-Counterfeiting Coalition, reversed its position. Alibaba had become one of our strongest partners. The
group welcomed Alibaba as a member and
invited its celebrated founder, Jack Ma, to be
the keynote speaker at its spring conference
in Orlando, Florida.
This is the tale of how one of Chinas corporate giants won and ultimately lost
a friend in Washington, using legal methods
long deployed by corporate America: money
and influence. But those time-honored tools
werent enough to defuse the deep loathing
that has greeted one of communist Chinas
Jack Ma
greatest capitalist success stories.
Alibaba is at the forefront of Chinas rise on the global stage.
The anxiety and suspicion that have greeted the company abroad
are, to some extent, anxiety and suspicion about China itself. A
month after it became the first e-commerce company to join the
anti-counterfeiting coalition, Alibaba got kicked out.
An Associated Press analysis of public filings shows that the
coalitions public comments shifted from criticism to praise as
the personal and financial ties between Alibaba and the group
deepened, even as other industry associations and the U.S.
and Chinese governments continued to take a harder line. A
probe by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission into
Alibabas accounting practices and sales data, disclosed this
week, has raised further questions about how the company does
business.
How Alibaba fares in Washington could help shape the global
fight against counterfeiting and impact the expansion of one of
Chinas most prominent companies.

of fakes fear the company could lobby its way out of having to
make meaningful changes in the way it polices its platforms.
That, critics say, would be a boon for the multibillion-dollar
counterfeiting industry, which costs U.S. companies money, can
imperil consumers safety, and feeds an underground moneylaundering industry for criminal syndicates.
Alibaba was one of the first Chinese companies to play politics seriously inside the beltway, and may not have realized how
even the smallest misstep can backfire, said Sean Miner, China
program manager for the Peterson Institute for International
Economics.
Chinese firms are going to have a bigger spotlight on them,
he said. Miner said that as Alibaba tries to expand its global
reach, their reputation has preceded them. ... Some Americans
might think, Why dont you go home and fix the problems
first?
Alibaba began 17 years ago in the modest living room of a
gutsy man with a history of failure. Jack Ma struggled in school,
and even Kentucky Fried Chicken refused to hire him.
Today, Alibaba is a $15.7 billion e-commerce ecosystem that
supports the livelihoods of tens of millions of merchants. Some
423 million shoppers last fiscal year picked through the billion
listings that Alibabas platforms host on any given day.
Alibaba doesnt sell any merchandise. It merely facilitates
transactions, deriving much of its revenue from advertising.
Alibabas core is Taobao, a Chinese consumer-to-consumer platform much like eBay, only bigger. The company also operates
Tmall, which offers merchants, including Nike and Macys, official storefronts to consumers in China. Two export platforms,
Alibaba and AliExpress, connect businesses in China with buyers around the world.
Critics, among them some top brands and intellectual property lawyers, say Alibabas ecosystem has proven remarkably
conducive to counterfeiting. They feared Alibabas inclusion in
the anti-counterfeiting coalition would lend it undeserved credibility. In U.S. court filings, Gucci America and other brands
belonging to Frances Kering Group have accused Alibaba of
knowingly profiting from the sale of fakes a charge Alibaba
has dismissed as wasteful litigation.

Stocks wrap up strong week as banks move higher


By Marley Jay

DOW JONES INDUSTRIALS

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK Stocks rose


Friday to wrap up their strongest
week in almost three months.
Banks gained ground after Federal
Reserve Chair Janet Yellen said
the central bank intends to keep
raising interest rates provided the
economy continues to improve.
Stocks turned higher over the

Economy showing signs of life


By Martin Crutsinger
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON The U.S. economy is showing signs of more life


after a less-than-stellar start to the
year.
The government said Friday that
first-quarter growth, while disappointing, wasnt as bad as first
thought. And a number of more
recent indicators are showing
decent gains in key areas like consumer spending and housing.
All the signs point to an economy that has probably doubled its
momentum this quarter. But faster
growth also raises the prospect
that the Federal Reserve will want
to nudge interest rates higher.
Fed Chair Janet Yellen said exactly that at an appearance Friday at
Harvard University. She noted that
after weak growth in the fourth
quarter of last year and the first
three months of this year, it looks
to be picking up from the various

data that we monitor.


She said if the growth continues
and the labor market keeps improving, then probably in the coming
months, such a move (rate hike)
would be appropriate.
Yellen, who stressed that the
Feds plan is to raise rates gradually and cautiously, did not specify
when exactly a rate hike might
occur. But many economists
believe it could come as soon as the
Feds next meeting on June 14-15.
Expectations of a possible June
hike have been climbing since the
central bank surprised investors
last week with the release of the
minutes of the April meeting. The
minutes showed that Fed officials
were prepared to raise rates at the
June meeting if the economy kept
improving.
The Fed boosted rates by a quarter-point in December after leaving
them at a record low near zero for
seven years. At the time, it indicated that four more rate hikes could

occur this year. But it has so far put


further increases on hold in the
wake of financial market turbulence
in January and February triggered
by unexpected weakness in the
global economy.
Yellens remarks Friday came
after the Commerce Department
reported that the gross domestic
product, the broadest measure of
economic output, grew at an annual
rate of 0.8 percent in the first quarter.
That was slightly better than the
initial estimate of 0.5 percent but
still marked the second straight
quarter in which growth has
slowed. The GDP increased at a
modest 1.4 percent rate in the
fourth quarter.
Economists, however, are forecasting a rebound. Based on recent
better-than-expected reports, they
have been revising their secondquarter growth estimates higher, up
from less than 2 percent to around
2.5 percent.

Menlo eyes CCS crown

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

After the last game the Menlo Knights


lost falling 8-5 at Carlmont in the
Peninsula Athletic League baseball tournament semifinals they quickly shook
hands with the opposition, packed up their
gear and made a beeline for the parking lot.
It was the body language of a team on a
mission.
Since that day, the Knights have rolled to
three straight wins through the Central
Coast Section Division II playoff bracket.
Saturday, they hope to make it a clean
sweep, as No. 3 seeded Menlo takes on topseed Carmel in a championship showdown
at San Joses Municipal Stadium at 1 p.m.
Menlo boasts five all-time CCS crowns,
including one in 2004 when now secondyear manager Ryan Cavan was the starting
shortstop. After that he returned to
Municipal Stadium as a farmhand for the San
Francisco Giants, playing in the California
League playoffs for High-A San Jose in
2011 and 13.
This year, however, marks his first turn
managing in the postseason.
Ive had a lot of history in San Jose,
Cavan said. So its kind of like full circle
now that Im back out there.
Cavans Menlo squad has been on fire for
over a month now. Technically since PAL
tournament games dont count towards
teams records the Knights havent had a
recorded loss since April 21 against El
Camino. At that point Menlo was in a funk,
having lost four of five. Not counting the
PAL tourney, the Knights have recorded
eight straight wins since that day.
Senior infielder Jared Lucian has been a
catalyst for the Knights, surprisingly batting in the No. 9 spot. While Menlo hasnt
filed statistics at Maxpreps.com for the past
two seasons, in 2014 the last year the
program did file stats under former manager

League tournament. Since then, Menlo has won three straight Central Coast Section playoff
games and will play for the Division II championship Saturday in San Jose against Carmel.

Kerr said. Theyve loved every second of


it. They dont want it to end, and no matter
how you look at it, if youre not the last

there. We want to win the next two and get
back to the finals.
Rebounding has been the best indicator in
the series. In Oklahoma Citys three wins,

Cain exits with


injury as Giants
fall in Colorado
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

DENVER Matt Cains right hamstring


tightened on his 25th pitch of the game.
Same thing happened again on the next one.
He summoned the trainer to the mound and
was taken out by manager Bruce Bochy. By
acting so promptly, hes hoping the injury
wont be too serious.
The right-handers strained hamstring was
the primary concern after
the San Francisco Giants
had their 10-game winning streak against NL
West teams halted in a 5-2
loss to the Colorado
Rockies on Friday night.
Cain will undergo an
MRI on Saturday.
Hopefully, we caught it
Matt Cain
early enough where it
wont be a big deal, Cain said. Its discouraging, but you cant sit here and dwell on it.
Just try to get this thing right and get back out
there.
Cain went 1 2-3 innings before being
replaced by Albert Suarez (1-1), who gave up
three runs over five innings. Suarez also took
a grounder off his left leg in the third but
stayed in the game.
Two of the runs Suarez surrendered came in
the inning where he was hit on the leg by a
liner from Tony Wolters. The ball bounced off
Suarez and into right field for a leadoff double.
Suarez picked up his first big-league RBI on
a fielders choice in the third.
He did a nice job, Bochy said. We just
couldnt do anything offensively.
Tyler Chatwood (6-3) threw seven masterful
innings and allowed just one unearned run as
he continues to get stronger and stronger
from a second Tommy John surgery in July
2014.
The command of Chatwood (6-3) was stellar
in becoming the sixth Rockies pitcher to go
seven or more innings, allow no earned runs
and walk none at Coors Field. The last time

TORONTO LeBron James


scored 33 points, Kevin Love had
20 points and 12 rebounds and the
Cleveland Cavaliers advanced to
their second straight NBA Finals
by beating the Toronto Raptors
113-87 in Game 6 of the Eastern
Conference finals Friday night.
Its the third finals appearance in
team history for the Cavaliers.
Cleveland lost to Golden State in
six games last year and got swept
by San Antonio in 2007.
For James, its his sixth straight
trip to the finals, including four
with Miami. He broke the 30-point
barrier for the first time this postseason and finished with 11
rebounds and six assists.
I had to bring my game, he
said. I had to be in attack mode
from the beginning.
Kyrie Irving had 30 points and
J.R. Smith had 15 for the
Cavaliers, who will face the winner
of the Golden State-Oklahoma City
series on Thursday.
Cleveland would open at home
against the Thunder but would be
on the road against the 73-win
Warriors, who trail 3-2 against

Oklahoma City heading into


Saturdays Game 6.
The Cavs will be seeking to end
Clevelands 52-year championship drought, the longest by
any city with at least three professional teams. No Cleveland team
has won it all since the Browns
blanked Baltimore 27-0 to win the
NFL championship in 1964.
Kyle Lowry scored 35 points and
DeMar DeRozan had 20 as the
deepest playoff run in Raptors
team history ended, much to the
disappointment of a sellout crowd
of 20,605 dressed in red and white
T-shirts that formed a maple leaf
pattern on either side of the court.

Raptors! Lets go, Raptors!
throughout most of the final three
minutes.
Toronto prolonged the series
with back-to-back home wins in
Games 3 and 4 but never mounted
much of a challenge to the conference champions in Game 6, falling
behind by 21 in the third quarter.
The Cavaliers came in 0-4 at Air
Canada Centre counting the regular
season and playoffs, but looked
much more like the team that handed the Raptors a trio of lopsided
losses in Cleveland this series.

Armon Plummer saved his best for


last at the Central Coast Section
Track and Field Championships
Friday at Gilroy High School.
Serras star senior qualified for
the state finals in four events, but
it was his anchor leg in the boys
4x400 meter relay that stole the
show as the Padres claimed the
gold medal for the third consecutive year, finishing with a time of
3 minutes, 19.45 seconds the
top time in CCS all season.
As Plummer took the baton on
the humid night in Gilroy, Serra
found itself in third place. But the
first three legs of Noriega Moffett,
Jeremiah
Testa
and Scott
Fitzpatrick kept the Padres within
striking distance so Plummer could
blow past the field.
We knew if we were close that he
had a chance to win it just because
we know his 400 time is one of the
best in the section, Serra head
coach Jim Marheineke said.
Heading into the final straightaway, Plummer trailed Bellarmine
but used his closing speed to be
the first to touch the tape. The

dynamic finish
came in his
fourth event,
no less. He also

with a time of

Hes tired, Marheineke said
following the meet. He ran a heck
of a race. All three of those races
were brutal races. They were all
closely contested. And the
4x400, it was a battle. He ran a
phenomenal anchor leg.
Serra finished in third place in
the boys team competition
behind first-place Bellarmine and
second-place Los Gatos.
The Padres also won gold in the
boys pole vault as senior Talon
Galvez-Bennett topped the field with
a vault of 14 feet, 6 inches.
Burlingame junior Jimmy Escobar

took fourth place at 13 feet, 6 inches.


In the boys long jump, Obodozie
took bronze for Serra with a jump of

Semanu Attiogbe took eighth at 20

In the boys shot put, Mills senior Ngahe Mapa made Throws

had been hampered by injury since

offense was stymied and suffered
yet another disappointing loss.
Manaea pitched six solid innings
and Jed Lowrie tripled in a run in the
ninth but Oakland fell to the
Detroit Tigers 4-1 on Friday night.
My slider was non-existent my
first couple of games and now its
coming around, Manaea said. The
change has been huge for me and
the fastball has always been there.
My slider is pretty effective when
Im throwing it where I want to, and
just going inside and not letting
them get their hands extended.
Nick Castellanos hit a home run
and Cameron Maybin extended his
hitting streak, giving rookie
Michael Fulmer more than enough
support in the Tigers win.
It was a slider I left up to
Castellanos, Manaea said. That
was just lack of execution.
Manaea (1-3) gave up three runs
on nine hits in six-plus innings.
He walked two and struck out four.
The As have lost seven of eight,
though they avoided being shut out
for the second time.
James McCann and J.D.
Martinez also drove in runs for the
Tigers, who have won nine of 11
overall. Ian Kinsler was a home run
shy of the cycle.
Fulmer (4-1) retired 14 of the

first 15 batters
he faced, with a
single by Khris
Davis with two
outs in the second inning, the
only smudge of
an
otherwise
dominating perSean Manaea formance.
He
was
throwing hard, number one and he
has a short little slider thats tough
to pick up, As manager Bob
Melvin said. He threw well his
last time out but that was probably
his best outing since hes been
up.
Fulmer, making his sixth career
start, did not allow another
baserunner until he walked Chris
Coghlan in the sixth and hit Jed
Lowrie with a pitch in the seventh.
He did not allow a runner past first
through seven innings.
Coghlan singled with two outs
in the eighth and Coco Crisp hit a
ground rule double, chasing
Fulmer. Justin Wilson came on to
face pinch-hitter Billy Butler,
striking him out to preserve the
shutout.

Nine-time French Open champ Nadal out with injury


By Howard Fendrich
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

PARIS For a decade, Rafael Nadal ruled


Roland Garros the way no other man has
dominated any Grand Slam site.
On Friday, his powerful left wrist wrapped
in a blue brace, Nadal delivered the surprising
news he was withdrawing before his thirdround match at the French Open because of an
injury that would prevent him from delivering
the whiplike, spin-heavy forehand that carried him to a record nine championships and
a 72-2 record on the tournaments red clay.
To win the tournament, I need five more
matches, Nadal said, his face expressionless,
his arms crossed in front of him, and the doctor says thats 100 percent impossible.
His announcement, at what he called one
of the toughest press conferences in my
career, overshadowed everything else going
on around the grounds on Day 6 of the French
Open, from the straight-set victories by
defending champion Stan Wawrinka and No.
2-seeded Andy Murray, to the out-of-nowhere
6-0, 6-7 (3), 6-0 upset of two-time
Wimbledon champion Petra Kvitova by
108th-ranked Shelby Rogers, a 23-year-old
American.
No. 15 John Isner, the last U.S. man in the
field, found out about Nadals abrupt departure about 15 minutes after winning a fivesetter to set up a showdown with Murray for a
berth in the quarterfinals.
It was a shock, Isner said. I had no
idea.
It robbed the event of more star power,
coming a week after 17-time major champion Roger Federer pulled because of lingering
back problems.
It cleared one potential obstacle from the
path of No. 1 Novak Djokovic, who is

attempting to win a fourth consecutive major
title and his first in Paris and could have
faced Nadal in the semifinals.
And it raised more questions about how
long Nadal, who turns 30 in a week, can continue to ply his intensely physical brand of
tennis and remain among the sports best. In
the past, he has dealt with problems to both
knees and to his right wrist; this is the first
time his left wrist has been an issue.
I mean, its a bummer for the tournament,
Isner said. I think a lot of people had him
playing Novak in the semis on that side of
the draw. Its a shame.

Croatia gets 2-match World Cup


stadium ban after fascist chant
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ZURICH Croatia has been ordered to


play two World Cup qualifying matches in
empty stadiums for repeated cases of fans
chanting fascist slogans.
FIFA fined the Croatian soccer federation
150,000 Swiss francs ($151,000), and
ordered the stadium bans to take effect when
Croatia hosts Turkey on Sept. 5 and Finland
on Oct. 9.
Chile was also ordered to play one World
Cup qualifier away from its national stadium
over fans chanting anti-gay insults, FIFA
said in disciplinary rulings announced
Friday. FIFA also fined five Latin American
soccer federations for discriminatory and
unsporting conduct by fans, including antigay insults, at World Cup qualifiers.
Croatia fans were guilty of discriminatory
chants at friendlies against Israel and
Hungary in March, FIFA said.

Croatia had already been sanctioned for


similar incidents by FIFA and UEFA in previous seasons, the world soccer body said.
Before the 2014 World Cup, FIFA banned
Croatia defender Josip Simunic for 10 matches for leading fans in a World War II-era chant
used by the countrys then-puppet regime.
After incidents of anti-gay chants at the
last World Cup in Brazil, FIFA has cracked
down on insults aimed by Latin American
fans at players on rival teams.
Chile cannot use its national stadium when
it hosts Bolivia on Sept. 6 and must pay a
fine of 30,000 Swiss francs ($30,250). A
second stadium-ban sanction was deferred for
a two-year probationary period.
In other sanctions for soccer federations,
FIFA fined Honduras 40,000 Swiss francs
($40,300), Mexico and El Salvador 35,000
Swiss francs ($35,275) each, Paraguay
20,000 Swiss francs ($20,150), and Peru
15,000 Swiss francs ($15,115).

for him against Murray, a two-time major


champion who has won all five of their previous matchups. Other fourth-rounders established Friday included No. 3 Wawrinka
against No. 22 Viktor Troicki, No. 5 Kei
Nishikori against No. 9 Richard Gasquet, and
No. 8 Milos Raonic against unseeded Albert
Ramos-Vinolas.
Womens fourth-round matches will be
Rogers against No. 25 Irina-Camelia Begu,
No. 2 Agnieszka Radwanska against unseeded Tsvetana Pironkova, No. 4 Garbine
Muguruza against No. 13 Svetlana
Kuznetsova, and No. 6 Simona Halep against
No. 21 Sam Stosur.

Ole Miss self-imposes scholarship cuts


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

OXFORD, Miss. Mississippi has selfimposed scholarship reductions in football


because of NCAA violations and is still
investigating more allegations involving
first-round NFL draft pick Laremy Tunsil.
The university released its 154-page
response Friday to the notice of allegations
received in January. The NCAAs long-running investigation began in 2012 after a
university probe discovered academic and
recruiting misconduct involving the
womens basketball program. Ole Miss
later acknowledged the investigation had
spread to the football and track and field
programs.

Kuznetsova won the tournament in 2009;


Halep and Stosur have both been runner-up.
Nadal won the French Open four times in a
row from 2005-08, then another five straight
from 2010-14. His only losses came against
Robin Soderling in 2009, snapping a 31match winning streak at Roland Garros, and
against Djokovic last year, ending a 39match run.
Nadal, owner of 14 Grand Slam titles overall, said the wrist pain first developed during
a match on clay in Madrid this month, then
subsided, before growing worse this week.
Nadal got a painkilling injection before his
second-round victory Thursday, but by the
time he awoke Friday, he couldnt move his
wrist and went for an MRI exam.
He did not practice this morning, so I figured there was a problem, tournament director Guy Forget said.
When Forget got a phone call from a member of Nadals entourage, he knew for certain
something was wrong. Nadals exit means
the man who was supposed to be his next
opponent, Marcel Granollers of Spain, gets a
walkover into the fourth round; win that, and
Granollers will reach his first quarterfinal in
35 appearances at majors.
Unfortunately, it is happening right now
and it is impacting the tournament. Its
impacting you and me, Forget said. I think
were all conscious that he is one of our best
ambassadors. Unfortunately, what counts
now is health.
Nadal said the injury involves an inflamed
tendon and might not require surgery if he
rests the wrist. But he cant practice for the
time being and is not sure what his status will
be for Wimbledon, where play begins in one
month.
Now is a tough moment, Nadal said, but
(it) is not the end.

mosquitoes that spread Zika, infections in

Several public health academics have previously warned that having hundreds of thou-

sands of people head to the Aug. 5-21 games


in Brazil will inevitably lead to the births of
more brain-damaged babies and speed up the
virus global spread. Most people infected
by Zika suffer only minor symptoms including fever, a rash and muscle or joint pain.
WHO declared the Zika epidemic to be a

season, need to take advantage of
their size and depth.
There have been some games in
this series where weve done a really good job, and there are some
games we need to do a better job,
Thunder coach Billy Donovan.
Ive said this during the course of
the season youve got to be
intentional about what youre
doing. Well have to go back and
start over and understand that thats

a rationale not to do anything about the


Olympics, said Amir Attaran, a professor at
the University of Ottawa and one of the letters authors. It is not the time now to throw
more gasoline onto the fire.
WHO has already advised pregnant women
not to go to Rio and says other travelers
should avoid poor and overcrowded parts of
the city. The U.N. agency also predicted the
Zika risk in August would drop since it will
be the south American winter and there
should be fewer mosquitoes.
Zika can also be spread via sex in some
cases; WHO recommends that pregnant
women abstain or practice safe sex with partners returning from Zika-affected areas.
WHO Director-General Dr. Margaret Chan
said earlier this month that the U.N. health
agency is increasingly worried about Zika
but stopped short of recommending the Rio
Olympics be moved or postponed. Chan,
who is not of child-bearing age, noted that
she herself would be attending the games.
Among the letters signatories are experts
from more than two dozen countries in fields
including public health, bioethics and pediatrics. The letter also noted a potential conflict of interest, highlighting the decadeslong collaboration between WHO and the
International Olympic Committee.
The authors said the overly close rela-

really and has always been in


this series a very, very important
ingredient for both teams.
Golden State got a more typical
effort from Curry on Thursday night
after two subpar games in Oklahoma
City. He scored 31 points on 9-for20 shooting to fuel the victory. The
Warriors believe they have figured
out at least part of their problem.
We play better when were having fun, Curry said. We played
like we were really stressed in
OKC, and it showed. Got to bottle
up that joy and take it with us on
the plane to OKC and be ready on
Saturday. Its going to be an electric atmosphere, and I think were
ready for the challenge.

tionship was last affirmed in 2010 at an


event where the Director-General of WHO and
president of the IOC signed a memorandum of
understanding, which is secret because neither has disclosed it.
They also pointed to a group that WHO
established to help cities not only with
health advice, but to potentially help them
bid for major events including the Olympics.
WHO cannot credibly assess the public
health risks of Zika and the Olympics when
it sets neutrality aside, the letter stated.
WHO did not immediately respond to a
request for comment Friday.
In an email to the AP, the IOC said it would
always consult the WHO for guidance and
advice on health matters.
Concerns over Zika have prompted USA
Swimming to move its pre-Olympic training
camp from Puerto Rico to Atlanta and Major
League Baseball also scrapped a series of
games that were going to be held in San Juan.
No Olympic Games have ever been moved
from their host city due to medical concerns,
but in 2003, FIFA decided to switch the
Womens World Cup soccer tournament from
China to the United States on short notice
due to the threat posed by the respiratory
virus SARS.

however, he and the rest of the Knights are
receiving some bona fide professional-grade
coaching not just from Cavan, but from second-year assistant coach Gary Davenport.
Gary Davenport the son of former San
Francisco Giants great Jim Davenport, who
died Feb. 18 of heart failure at the age of 82
was the hitting coach for the San Jose
Giants the first year Cavan played there in
2011. Gary Davenport is currently serving
as a roving minor league hitting instructor
for the Giants. He has also been a presence at
the Menlo School baseball diamond for two
seasons, and threw batting practice to the
team as recently as Monday, the day prior to
the Knights semifinal win over Cap.
Having him help me coach is so valuable,
Cavan said. Hes such a great coach. He

kind of coaching at the junior-varsity and
varsity level is a luxury, Cavan said.

gained a son, as his daughter Alexis and


Cavan were married. The Cavans now reside
in Atherton, near the Menlo School campus.
Settling down was one of the reasons Cavan
cited when he announced his retirement from
professional baseball last June.
However, Cavans retirement was shortlived. A week before the transaction deadline
in the American Association of Independent
Baseball, Cavan signed a deal with the St.
Paul Saints. He was 9 for 24 (.375 batting
average) through six games over the final
week of the season.
According to the Saints, Cavan is due to
join the team for the 2016 season in the
middle of June.
Cavan said he cant confirm he will reunite
with the Saints until he has officially signed
a contract.
I would love to continue to play but I
dont have a current contract right now,
Cavan said. Once things are in contract
written thats when I say yeah, Im going.

The current business at hand is Cavans quest


to earn his first managerial championship.
Carmel figures to be a tough customer though.
The Padres won the Mission Trail Athletic
League championship this season with a
balance of good pitching (2.49 staff ERA)
and a mighty offense (.362 team batting
average). Carmels three heaviest hitters are
all seniors. Carter Hayes won the MTAL batting crown this season with a .505 batting
average, while John Stivers batted .455.
Teammate Lennie Rodriguez captured the
league home run crown with four homers.
On the mound, however, both teams threw
their respective aces in the semifinals. Junior
left-hander Elliot Bouc five innings Tuesday in
Carmels 3-2 win over Monterey. Menlo righthander Chander Yu threw five-plus innings
against Cap to earn his 10th win of the year.

to be part of the show, and every driver
wants to win this race.
Marco Andretti has been preparing for
Sunday for an entire year.
His family suffers from the notorious
Andretti curse that has produced just one
victory Mario Andretti in 1969
despite numerous chances to win. Michael
Andretti returned from retirement in 2006
to race against his son, an Indy 500 rookie,
and the curse struck again. Michael Andretti
held a late lead, only to be passed by his
son and then Sam Hornish Jr. went roaring
by and passed Marco at the finish line.
Another Andretti defeat.
Andretti is like the 32 other drivers in the
field in their desire to become the 100th
face on the famed Borg-Warner trophy.
Among those eyeing the winners bottle
of milk Sunday is Graham Rahal, who is
trying to win his first Indy 500 on the 30th
anniversary of the race won by his father,

Bobby.
More than anything, Rahal is striving to
help IndyCar and its cornerstone event use
the 100th running to strengthen the series
and ensure that the Indy 500 remains a fixture in American sports.
Although a pair of Americans Josef
Newgarden and 2014 winner Ryan HunterReay will start on the front row Sunday,
a Canadian will lead the field to the green
flag. James Hinchcliffe was the feel-good
pole winner for the 500, a year after he
nearly died in a crash during a practice session the day after qualifying. His crash
caused a part to break off his car and it
skewered one of his thighs, causing
Hinchcliffe to nearly bleed to death as
IndyCars safety team raced him to emergency surgery.
He watched the 500 from his hospital bed
and remembers very little of last May as he
was heavily medicated while hospitalized.
I remember the finish, that battle at the

end, that was very fun to watch, he said of


Juan Pablo Montoyas showdown with
teammate Will Power. Montoya went on to
win his second Indy 500.
Montoya would like to repeat this year
and give team owner Roger Penske a 17th
Indy 500 win. Team Penske is celebrating
its 50th anniversary this year, and all four
of his drivers want to give the boss the centennial victory.
If Penske gets a win from Helio
Castroneves, the Brazilian would become
just the fourth driver in history to win Indy
four times.
If there was a favorite for this race, it
would likely be another Penske driver:
Simon Pagenaud has been on a tear this
year, his second driving for The Captain.
He opened the year with a pair of secondplace finishes, then reeled off three wins in

in five races this year.

Tunsil was only identified as Student-Athlete


I in the response. Another athlete kept a
loaner vehicle for more than a month after his
own was repaired.
The car dealer also allowed Tunsil to postpone his $3,000 down payment on a 2010
Dodge Challenger for three or four months.
The university also has asked to delay a
hearing before the Committee on Infractions
while it looks into draft-night allegations
involving Tunsil, who was picked by the
Miami Dolphins. Tunsil was the story of the
NFL draft after a bizarre 30-second video of
him smoking from a gas mask-bong contraption was posted on his Twitter account just
before the selections began. There was also a
post on Tunsils Instagram account showing
an alleged text conversation with a football
staff member about arranging payment for
bills.
Tunsil said both accounts were hacked, but
acknowledged following the draft that he
accepted money from a coach while he was at

Ole Miss.
In a letter attached to the universitys
response, Chancellor Jeffrey Vitter and athletic director Ross Bjork said Ole Miss and
the NCAA started reviewing the cases for
potential violations that night, and we hope
this review will be concluded soon.
To ensure fairness to all parties and pursuant to COI procedure, we have asked the
COI to remove the hearing from this summers docket until this review can be completed and closed, the university officials
wrote.
Before the arrival of current football coach
Hugh Freeze, the university said former staff
member David Saunders allegedly arranged
for fraudulent ACT scores for three prospects
and that Saunders and ex-assistant committed
unethical conduct during the investigation
and after they left the school.
The university said it barred current assistants Chris Kiffin and Maurice Harris from
off-campus recruiting contact for a month and

three weeks, respectively, for recruiting violations. It also cut the staffs off-campus
recruiting days in each of the past two spring
evaluation periods.

the failures that colored peoples perceptions of them, none more than blowing a 30 series lead to Los Angeles in 2014 in a collapse that ultimately led to Thornton being
stripped of the captaincy.
Weve been through a lot here, teammate Logan Couture said. Ive only been
here seven years but those guys have been
here longer than I have and they deserve
this. Theyve been through a lot, Patty especially.
Marleau played 165 playoff games before
reaching his first final, the most of any
player. He lost his first three trips to the
conference final and needed 16 trips to the
playoffs to reach the final round.
Thornton was next on that list with 150
games, including two conference final loss-

es before making it to the Cup in his 15th


postseason.
The fact they will be there in Sharks uniforms only makes it more special. There was
talk they could be traded the summer after the
2014 playoff collapse, Thornton had a public feud with general manager Doug Wilson
last season and there were reports that
Marleau was seeking a trade earlier this season.
Nothing ever materialized and the two are
still in San Jose to the delight of all sides.
Thornton is playing perhaps the best twoway hockey of his career, posting three
goals and 15 assists through the first three
rounds and dominating possession against
the other teams top players.
After spending much of the year as a third-

line center, Marleau moved back to his more


familiar spot of a second-line wing alongside Couture. He has four goals and eight
assists so far, including two helpers in the
third period of the conference final clincher
against St. Louis.

Carrying a year

y the time winter break ended and


this semester started, 50 percent of
me was more than ready for summer. And in the months that have passed
since then, that percentage has slowly but
(very) surely increased. Yet, it didnt occur
to me just how quickly the school year was
ending until just last week when I received
my yearbook.
The yearbook, with its candid (and sometimes too candid) photos and its carefully
(and sometimes hastily) scrawled autographs, is an unmistakable reminder that my
time as a junior is rapidly drawing to a close.
And at just over four
pounds, its a rather conspicuous and heavy,
in more ways than one
reminder. Its a bit
frightening to see that
Cindy Zhang three years of high
school, three years of
middle school and five years of elementary
school have passed so quickly and perhaps
even more frightening to think that in less
than a year, for better or for worse, I will
be entering adulthood.
School, at least for me, always ends with
a mixture of anticipation and trepidation.
Theres something joyous about knowing
that you wont have to wake up at 6:20 in
the morning five days a week, that you
wont have to spend seven or eight hours
of your day sitting behind a desk, that you
wont have to bubble in 60 questions in 60
minutes (using a No. 2 pencil, of course).
And while you may argue (and it would be a
valid point) that nobody was locked up or
really confined during the school year,
there is a sort of freedom that goes hand in
hand with summer break.
Yet, the end of the school year doesnt

NEW YORK If you doubt that Maya


Rudolph and Martin Short are funny together indeed, a match made in heaven just
recall their memorable number on the 40th

Rudolph revived her uncanny impersonation of Beyonce, resplendent in her lace
bodysuit, her tresses billowing from a wind
machine that threatened to blow Short offstage. Their duet was one of the highlights
of the broadcast.
Now these multitalented stars of TV and
film have partnered for a six-week NBC run

that promises to whip up the same level of


hilarity.

after the two-hour season premiere of
Americas Got Talent, Maya & Marty is
a variety show whose first outing will welcome guests Miley Cyrus, Larry David,
Jimmy Fallon and Tom Hanks as well as
series regular Kenan Thompson.
A day before that first show would be
taped one floor down in Studio 6A, the two
hosts greeted a reporter in the conference
room of their 30 Rockefeller Plaza offices
as Rudolph, casual in jeans and an oxfordcloth shirt, pulled on a sweater against the
overwrought air conditioning.
Rudolph: Sometimes, you gotta layer!

Freyberg said, While images of war-torn
Syria fill the media, many people are unfamiliar with the rich cultural heritage and beautiful

Country music takes over


Baton Rouge this weekend
By Chevel Johnson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW ORLEANS Country music fans


descend on Baton Rouge, Louisiana, for the
Memorial Day weekend to hear some of the
hottest performers in the genre including Luke
Bryan, Jason Aldean and Eric Church as part of
the 2016 Bayou County Superfest.
The star-studded three-day festival in its
seventh year annually draws thousands to
Louisiana State Universitys Tiger Stadium. A
free fan fest is planned before the stadium gates
open for the ticketed concerts.
Performing Friday, on the festivals opening
night with Bryan, are Lady Antebellum, Little
Big Town and the Randy Rogers Band. On
Saturday, Brothers Osborne, Frankie Ballard,
Cole Swindell and Darius Rucker take the stage
ahead of Church. Fans can see A Thousand
Horses, Dustin Lynch, Thomas Rhett, Dierks
Bentley and Aldean, who will close the festivals final night.
It is a hot ticket, and were going to have a
lot of fun, Baton Rouge Mayor-President Kip
Holden said. This event generates a lot of
enthusiasm. We get people from all over the
country coming in; some even use that weekend
for family reunions or class reunions. Its given
us a special stake in the U.S. festival market.
Festival Productions Inc.s Quint Davis, the
festivals producer, agreed. He said walking
through the stadium parking lot and seeing all
the different license plates always makes him
smile.

year, but I think we could still do pretty good,

He said one reason so many people are drawn
to Superfest is the diverse selection of talent.
To be able, at the end of the day, to have this
kind of talent all on the same weekend is just an
incredible get, he said.
Holden said that after seven years, the festival
has grown into a tremendous boon for the city
and parish.
Fans come in and spend a lot of money and
have a great time, he said. Its a win-win situation for everyone.
At the fan fest, people can dance to the tunes
of Corey Ledet & His Zydeco Band, Derek

Saturday, and High Ground Drifters Bluegrass

Full House property for sale

SAN FRANCISCO The San Francisco
Victorian that served as the exterior of the

The San Francisco Chronicle reported
Friday that 1708 Broderick in the wealthy
Pacific Heights neighborhood is on the market.
The 1883 home appears in Full House

as the home of Danny Tanner and his fictional family.
Real estate agents are stressing the

THE DAILY JOURNAL

April, the conservative watchdog Media


Research Center found that CNN spent 730
minutes on the Republican race and 214 on
the Democrats. Trump had 331 minutes of
coverage and Clinton had 110, the MRC said.
CNN has drawn particular attention because
its ratings have risen faster than its rivals and,
unlike Fox News Channel and MSNBC, both
parties are more likely to work with the network.
Some CNN employees have expressed concern, through internal channels, about
Trumps airtime. Yet it fits the playbook of
CNN chief executive Jeff Zucker, who believes
in lavishing attention on big stories, be they
missing planes or politics. Zucker, who
declined an interview request, has vigorously
defended CNNs coverage and said neither the
network nor Trump should be punished for his
accessibility.
Now that the primaries are ending, the sort
of free-for-all season is over, said Frank
Sesno, a journalism professor at George

Washington University and former CNN


Washington bureau chief.
All news organizations have an obligation
to get serious and sober about how they are
going to cover this, about the equity with
which they cover it, Sesno said.
These discussions are already taking place
informally and each days coverage is planned
with fairness in mind, said one television
news producer, who spoke on condition of
anonymity because of the issues sensitivity.
The producer predicted the party nominees
would get equal time or close to it.
Youre going to see more coverage than
you can handle of both of them, the producer
said.
History shows how coverage changes with
a campaigns focus. During the first four
months of 2008, the novel candidacy of
Democrat Barack Obama received 243 minutes
of coverage on the broadcast evening newscasts compared with Republican John
McCains 138 minutes, Tyndall said.

Between Labor Day and Election Day,


McCain had 212 minutes of coverage and
Obama 185, Tyndall said. During the last three
presidential elections featuring no incumbent
(2008, 2000 and 1988), the eventual loser had
more coverage time, although it was virtually
even in 2000 like the election itself. Thats
probably because the underdog takes more
chances toward the end, said news consultant
Andrew Tyndall.
Trumps accessibility and media consciousness he recently called the CNN newsroom
to point out an interview done on Fox News
is a complicating factor.
The problem for the networks is you have
one candidate who is far more wary of the
media than she ought to be and you have
another candidate who is far more eager to be
in the media than the media ought to allow,
Jamieson said.
Sesno said Clinton needs to rip off the
Bubble Wrap and engage the media far more
than shes probably comfortable with.

teaming up for a weekly TV show. Then, last


summer, Short invited Rudolph and her husband, director Paul Thomas Anderson
(There Will Be Blood), and their four children up to his cottage in Canada, along with
some writers, to brainstorm.
Sho rt: We just sat on the dock and drank
Rum-and-Ting and talked about what the

Rudo l ph: Nothings better than Rumand-Ting.
Sho rt: Part of the creative process!
Rudo l ph: And what we came away with

Sho rt: On our show, there will be
singing and dancing and sketches and characters.
Rudo l ph: Were entertainers! Or, as
some like to call it: ham-bones!
Two years ago, Rudolph headlined a variety special on NBC, which allowed her to
get her feet wet with what was a dream project.
Rudo l ph: I did it to show myself I could
do it. I knew it was the next direction I want-

ed to go in.
Since then, shes been waiting for the
moment she could jump in all the way. But
then, as now with Maya & Marty, a bit of
skepticism has greeted what she aims to do.
Thats because of the term applied to it,
variety, which many observers think of
fondly (thanks to bygone classics like The
Ed Sullivan Show and The Carol Burnett
Show), but others may consider passe (supporting this view: the Neil Patrick Harris
Best Time Ever variety show, which survived just one cycle last fall.)
Rudo l ph: Other people are more concerned about the idea of variety than we are.
For some reason, theres an expectation that
our show is meant to be something weve all
seen before. But were NEVER gonna see
what we saw before again. Were gonna see
what were seeing today: Marty and my show
today!
Sho rt: Were not trying to bring back a
form, because I dont think the variety form
ever went away: Americas Got Talent and
The Voice are variety shows. (Tonight
Show host) Jimmy Fallon does a full-

fledged variety show every night.


AP: Yes, but can a variety show stand on
its own without an element of competition,
or a talk-shows couch and sofa?
Sho rt: Its like when the sitcom was
considered dead. Then Bill Cosby created a
hit show (his legendary The Cosby Show
in 1984) that was a sitcom and, by the
way, was really well-written and (well)acted. Suddenly: We were wrong! The sitcom
is BACK!
AP: Thats true. Every faded program
genre is just one hit away from a comeback.
Sho rt: I think our show has a good shot.
But I never assume when I start something
that, Oh, I bet Im gonna be on for eight
years. Or, I bet this is gonna win the
Oscarrrrrr! If our show is a success, fantastic! And if not, well do just six shows. And
well be fine.
Rudo l ph: But do you think there is a
possibility that we might win an Oscar from
this?

Another momentous step toward ensuring
future generations of children continue to be
educated at Coyote Point came Tuesday as
county supervisors approved a 30-year lease
that will begin just before construction. The
county, which owns the property, also provided an option for two consecutive 15-year lease
extensions.

of living area, and due to the fact that most


parents have to work and we dont want our
children out on the streets after school, we
need something and we are going to do our
best to help them, Lucy said.
Programs for both before and after school
are currently offered at Buri Buri, Ponderosa,
Los Cerritos, Martin, Monte Verde, Spruce,
Junipero Serra, Skyline and Sunshine
Garden elementary schools, in a combination of services organized by the district,
the citys Park and Recreation Department,
as well as the Boys and Girls Club.
The district has 238 children enrolled in
its program, while the city serves 450 children and the Boys and Girls Club serves
about 261 others, according to a district
report.
The average wait list to join a program is
16 children, but some programs have no
waiting, while others have as many as 65
hoping for an opening, according to the
report.
The needs of the community are greater
than we can offer at this juncture, said
Lucy.

Trustee John Baker earlier this month


tweeted a video taken before 6 a.m. of families in tents who had camped overnight in
front of city offices to be the first in line to
sign up for after-school programs.
As officials consider offering more
vibrant services, a variety of hurdles stand
in their way, noted Lucy, such as campus
facilities and operating budget.
Officials could consider adding modular
classrooms to campuses housing child care
services, but an eye must be kept to ensuring the additional facilities do not interfere
with educating students, said Lucy.
Its going to take some serious conversations in regards to do we have space? Do
we have the financing? What can we do to
make this work? How is this going to affect
our students, our staff and our schools? said
Lucy.
Principals throughout the district have
expressed concerns regarding the potential
establishment of modular buildings which
could be used to house child care services,
according the report, as many campuses are
already cramped and do not have adequate

space to accommodate additional structures.


Despite the desire of the community for
enhanced services, Lucy said he was uncertain regarding the feasibility of the initiative for the district.
We are going to try to look at every
aspect of this to make it work, but it is not
a guarantee, he said.
He said school officials are willing and
interested in collaborating with other
organizations in South San Francisco to
develop a program clearly needed and valued
by local residents.
All the partners need to come together
and we all need to discuss it and find a way to
make it happen because we are a community, he said.
But as school officials consider the programs, they must maintain their focus on
the primary obligation to serve those
enrolled in the district too, said Lucy.
We are going to do our best to help, but
we only have so much money we can
spend, he said. Our main priority is educating students, and we are not going to forsake our responsibility.

Its really fantastic because it demonstrates


a continued partnership. Weve been partners
with the county since 1954, when the original
San Mateo County Junior Museum was in
Coyote Point Park, Meyer said, noting
money will exchange hands for the first time
as CuriOdyssey is anticipated to pay about
$20,000 a year under the terms of the lease. I
think what they really see is we provide mission-compatible programs with private dollars and recognize they have this partner
thats doing work that is so valuable to the
community and county parks.
The renovation was designed to keep within

the existing footprint of the current facility.


But reorganizing and taking over a mostlyvacant ballroom offered for event rentals, will
allow CuriOdyssey to meet increasing demand
for its award-winning programs. It could double its classroom space allowing it to grow its
summer camp program, and triple its space for
interactive and custom-made exhibits. An
architecturally prominent observation deck
will provide keen vantage points of the park
and a large renovated outdoor play area will
draw on the natural world.
The goal of the renovation is to create a
state-of-the-art facility to support the work
that we do. And we believe in science and
environment education, that theres nothing
more important and that by starting young,
youre helping to build childrens intuition,
Meyer said.
After rebranding in 2011, CuriOdyssey has
continued to expand with 170,000 annual visitors as well as a steady increase in membership. The local group wants to remain in a
cozy facility that encourages visitors to
explore and interact with exhibits as well as
animals, Meyer said.
We are a science center that serves children
and our primary audience is during the first
decade of a childs life. We provide opportunities for children to observe the natural world,
natural phenomenon, as a basis to understand
the science process, Meyer said. We want to
be a size and a scale where children can feel
comfortable and really own their experience
here.
The locale, while popular amongst families, is also home to dozens of wildlife that
have been deemed unfit for release. The

Association of Zoos and Aquariums-accredited


site hosts nearly 100 native California
species including otters, bobcats, foxes, falcons and more.
Because the facility will remain within its
own footprint and continue existing operations, county officials moved to waive an
environmental review process for the project
Tuesday.
The nonprofit anticipates $24 million will
go toward expanding and modernizing the site
while another $11 million will fund education
programs, exhibit development and other
programs.
TomKat has now donated nearly $7 million
and one of its founders has been visiting the
Coyote Point museum since she was a child,
Meyer said.
Some of CuriOdysseys largest supporters
include the Lucile Packard, the Gordon and
Betty Moore, the Hewlett and the Goldman
foundations. They also received two $1 million anonymous donations, Meyer said.
At 62 percent of its total fundraising goal,
Meyer noted the group doesnt have a firm
timeline as to when theyll start construction
but is hopeful the community will continue to
support creativity and curiosity at
CuriOdyssey.
Were pushing hard. Well be very excited
to break ground and have our serious science
playground become a reality, Meyer said.
No donation is too small, but we would hope
that people recognize the value and really
help to make it a reality.

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.

teachers offer lessons on piano, guitar and bass,


drums, voice, strings, brass, and woodwinds. See our
web site at www.bronsteinmusic.com, or give us a call
at (650) 588-2502 for more information on our classes
and programs.

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


had this to say about music: If I were not a physicist,
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.

Department. Its been kind of a personal and professional
goal to improve the water quality and get off that list and
weve taken some pretty extensive measures to get there.
Efforts include spending $250,000 a year on a specialist
to manage nuisance algae and plant growth, hiring someone
to clean up pesky goose droppings, repairing storm and
sewer drains, hosting a community clean-up program and
conducting more public outreach, Scheidt said.
Heal the Bays annual Beach Report Card was released
Thursday and highlights the states most polluted, bacteriaridden locales with a spot near Pillar Point Harbor making
the list this year and in 2014.
San Mateos Marina Lagoon was not only bumped off the
list on which its been the three years prior, county health
officials who conduct weekly water-quality tests have for
several months in a row declared it safe to swim.
It hasnt always been that way. Over the last year, 82 percent of San Mateo County beaches scored an A grade, but the
Pillar Point and Aquatic Park at Marina Lagoon sites two
semi-enclosed bodies of water received far lower scores,
according to the report. Both sites received a year-round F
during wet-weather periods.
Some of the countys best scoring and cleanest spots
include Sharp Park and Rockaway beaches, along with
Montara, Dunes, Francis and Bean Hollow state beaches.
San Mateos Coyote Point scored the highest of the
Bayfront beaches tested in the county, according to Heal the
Bay.
San Mateo County had a high number of sewage spills the
last year, with six beaches having to be closed and a total of
nearly 425,307 gallons of sewage spilled, according to
Heal the Bay.
The nonprofit compiles data from the countys health system and bases grades on concentrations of E. coli and enterococcus bacteria that can cause gastrointestinal and respiratory illnesses that could range from minor infections to
fatalities.
County health officials post warning signs deterring people from swimming when the water quality is poor. The
county tests local bays, beaches and creeks for these indicator bacteria, which signal the possible presence of diseasecausing organisms originating from animal and human
waste, according to county Environmental Health Director
Heather Forshey.
Forshey urged swimmers to avoid coastal waters during or
immediately after heavy rains as well as within 300 feet of
any flowing storm drain.

that flow captured and diverted to them. The three-inch Delta
smelt is a native California fish on the brink of extinction.
The smelt has become an emblem in the states battles over
environmental laws and water distribution.
Politically influential rural water districts and well-off
corporate farmers in and around Californias Central Valley
have been pushing back against longstanding federal laws
protecting endangered fish and other species, saying federal efforts to make sure endangered native fish have enough
water is short-changing farmers of the water they want and
need for crops.
Water authorities say they cant do it because of the water
rights of those upstream of the farmers, and because of the
minimum-water allowances needed by endangered species in

DATEBOOK
Its been kind of a personal and professional
goal to improve the water quality and get off
that list and weve taken some pretty
extensive measures to get there.
Sarah Scheidt, San Mateos Public Works Department

There are many beautiful beaches and bays in San Mateo


County. We recommend people choose a beach that does not
have an active posting, Forshey wrote in an email, adding
people should use their judgment if an area appears polluted
while always rinsing off after swimming.
Cowell Beach near the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk was
marked as the states most polluted site for the third year in
a row. But the vast majority of state beaches scored exceedingly well this year, one of the rare silver linings of the
drought as less runoff has improved water quality, according
to Heal the Bay.
Scheidt noted the San Mateos lagoon collects runoff from
a large portion of the city and while officials are striving to
repair storm drain leaks and engaging in a multi-million
dollar Clean Water Program; she urged the community to
stay involved.
One thing weve done is implement this Team up to
Cleanup, a program where we partner with different departments throughout the city and even different residential
groups to do litter and trash cleanup around the city and in
our waterways. Weve also had several events at Marina
Lagoon, Scheidt said.
The city has also begun firmer enforcement for ensuring
only stormwater enters the system, with a focus on commercial businesses such as ensuring restaurants arent
dumping grease down the drain, she said.
As much of the pollution originates from upstream and is
caused by human activities, Scheidt urged everyone to be
conscientious and do their part to keep their local beaches
clean and safe for summer.
I would encourage people to not litter, keep anything out
of the storm drain other than rain water, pick up your pet
waste and come out and help us do cleanup events. Also
report when they see problems so we can deal with them, we
really love community support in improving overall water
quality, Scheidt said. And enjoy the summer!

Fallujah residents brace for long fight


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BAGHDAD Five days into an Iraqi military operation to push Islamic State fighters
out of Fallujah, residents still inside the city are
preparing for a long battle, with some saying
they fear being trapped between two forces
they dont fully trust.
More than 50,000 people remain in the center of the Sunni majority city, which has been
under control of the extremist group for more
than two years. Those who want to leave
describe deteriorating humanitarian conditions, but they also say they are wary of the
Iraqi government forces who have pledged to
liberate them.
Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi announced
the start of the offensive late Sunday night.
Backed by airstrikes from a U.S.-led coalition,
Iraqi forces are tightening their grip around
Fallujah and dislodging IS militants from key
areas.
The airstrikes are almost constant, one
man told The Associated Press by phone from

inside the city Thursday.


The resident, who spoke
on condition of anonymity out of concerns for his
safety, said that after living for weeks on rice,
canned food and processed
cheese, those stocks were
beginning to run low.
Haider al-Abadi While many in Fallujah
welcomed the takeover of
the city by the Sunni-led Islamic State group as
an alternative to what they considered their
marginalization at the hands of Iraqs leaders,
humanitarian conditions in the city have deteriorated under the extremists.
Located 40 miles (65 kilometers) west of
Baghdad, the city has a history of anti-government sentiment in post 2003 Iraq.
After the U.S.-led invasion in 2003 toppled
Saddam Hussein, the citys 250,000 residents
initially supported a Sunni insurgency that
rose up against U.S. forces and the Shiite-dominated government in Baghdad. Militants from

al-Qaida in Iraq fought two bloody battles with


U.S. troops in Fallujah in 2004 that killed
more than 100 Americans and wounded more
than 1,000.
In 2012, Fallujah was the heart of an antigovernment protest movement that mobilized
tens of thousands across Sunni areas. The
demonstrations were sparked by then-Prime
Minister Nouri al-Malikis increasingly sectarian rule that many Sunnis felt had left them
without a voice. Clashes between Iraqi security
forces and protesters killed dozens in Fallujah,
with thousands of young men arrested.
Shortly after a bloody raid on a Fallujah
protest camp in early 2014, Islamic State militants moved in and took over the town. IS later
captured the second-largest city of Mosul and
then swept toward Baghdad in a blitz that seized
nearly a third of Iraq territory.
As Iraqi government troops surrounded
Fallujah in summer 2015, residents began
reporting increased cases of malnutrition, with
the siege preventing food and medicine from
entering the city.

Around the world


Putin blasts West on first
trip to EU country this year
ATHENS, Greece On his first trip to a
European Union country this year, Russian
President Vladimir Putin on Friday sharply criticized western policy toward Moscow, describing a newly-expanded U.S.
missile defense system as a
threat to his countrys security.
Putin arrived in Athens
on a two-day visit and
emerged from talks with the
Greek government to lash
the United States and NATO
allies, also accusing them
Vladimir Putin of stifling trade and energy
cooperation with Russia.
Earlier this month, the U.S. program was
declared operation at a site in Romania, drawing
an angry reaction from Russia. NATO says the
system is purely defensive and a response to a
growing capability of ballistic missiles globally.
We keep hearing that its not a threat against
Russia, that its not aimed at Russia, Putin said
late Friday.
Of course its a threat to us. It can easily be
modified to have an aggressive capability ... We
are obliged to take action in response to guarantee our security, he said, without elaborating.

This week, as the fighting intensified, food


and water are becoming even harder to find, residents told the AP by phone and the internet.
The Iraqi forces dont want the militants to
escape the city, and coalition officials estimated earlier this week that 500-700 IS fighters
remain in Fallujah, nestled among the civilian
population.
Iraqi military officials insist that safe corridors will be established to allow civilians to
flee, but residents say IS-controlled checkpoints along the citys main roads have made
that nearly impossible. The United Nations
said nearly 800 people have fled in the past
week, but most were from the outskirts where IS
control is weaker.
A 21-year-old former resident, who identified
himself only as Ahmed out of concern for his
familys safety, said he fled Fallujah more than
a year ago but even then, the militants tight
grip on the city made it nearly impossible to
get out. He said he had to walk for hours
through farmland and dirt roads to make it to
Baghdad.

Egypt says search for crashed


EgyptAir plane narrows
CAIRO The search for the EgyptAir plane
which crashed last week killing all 66 people on
board has narrowed to a 5-kilometer-wide area in
the Mediterranean Sea, based on signals from
the crafts emergency beacon, Egypts chief
investigator said.
The chief investigator, Ayman al-Moqadem,
said late Thursday that Airbus had given
Egyptian authorities information on the
Emergency Locator Transmitter, or ELT, from
the doomed aircraft.
An official from the Egyptian investigation
team on Friday clarified that the beacon information was from the day of the crash, May 19,
and that no new signal had been found. An
Airbus official said he was unaware of any ELT
received or given to the Egyptians.
Both officials spoke to The Associated Press
on condition of anonymity because they were
not authorized to talk to the press.
The ELTs signal is too weak to transmit
information from underwater, unlike the locator
pings emitted by the flight data and cockpit
voice recorders, known as the black box. AlMoqadem stressed that the black boxes have not
been found, which he said requires highly
sophisticated technology. But he said the search
was now being conducted in a 5-kilometer (3miles) area. He did not clarify how long the
search has been narrowed to that area.
