Two teens arrested for arson


Law enforcement officials believe suspicious blaze
in Millbrae may have been started accidentally
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Two teenaged boys suspected to be


responsible for starting the fire which
destroyed the Millbrae Community
Center were arrested for arson, according to county law enforcement officials who claim the blaze may have
been an accident.
The identities of the two Millbrae
residents, ages 16 and 17, were not
released due to their juvenile status,
according to the San Mateo County

Sheriffs Office, but they are being


held at the San Mateo County Youth
Services Center on suspicion of arson.
Detective Sal Zuno, spokesman for
the county sheriffs office which provides law enforcement services to
Millbrae, said information collected
leading to the arrest made Friday, July
22, indicated the two suspects may not
have intended to burn down the recreation center when they started the fire
outside the facility.
Information suggests that the incident was due to negligence and it was

not intentional, but the investigation


is still ongoing, said Zuno, during a
Monday press conference at Millbrae
City Hall.
Fire crews responded to the fouralarm fire at the Millbrae Community
Center, 477 Lincoln Circle, around 4
a.m. Thursday, July 21, to find the
facility engulfed in flames. Once the
fire reached the attic, firefighters
decided the building could not be saved
and it was ultimately destroyed.

Voters first approved Measure A in 2012 with a 10-year

Court warns of jury duty scam

used to defraud a public that simply wishes to
fulfill its important civic duty, Grandsaert

A CHP officer spotted Vuong driving
south on Highway 101 in Redwood City just

The officer followed him at low speed on
city streets and then onto the highway at
speeds of up to 90 mph. Vuong got off the
highway on Maple Street and drove onto a
San Mateo County jail facility there, prosecutors said.
He then got out of his car and tried to
climb the fence onto jail grounds. When
that didn't work, he got through a broken

He told officers he fled because it was fun,
prosecutors said. Investigators later determined he was under the influence of

New state law will require

Firefighters battle the so-called Sand Fire in the Angeles National Forest near Los Angeles.

L.A. wildfire burns buildings


as residents balk at leaving
By Christopher Weber
and Brian Melley
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SANTA CLARITA A raging wildfire that forced thousands from their


homes on the edge of Los Angeles continued to burn out of control Monday
as frustrated fire officials said residents
reluctant to heed evacuation orders
made conditions more dangerous and
destructive for their neighbors.
The smoky fire tore through
drought-ravaged brush that hadnt
burned in decades amid a sweltering
heat wave and exploded over the weekend. It burned more than 51 square
miles (132. 09 sq. kilometers) and
destroyed at least 18 residences.
Firefighters were unable to battle
some of the blaze because of evacuation holdouts they had to spend time
helping to safety instead of putting
out destructive flames, County Fire
Chief Daryl Osby said.
Some firefighters felt that they lost

additional structures because they had


to stop what they were doing to help
citizens evacuate, Osby said.
U. S. Forest Service spokesman
Justin Correll urged residents to leave
quickly when evacuation orders are
issued because their property
becomes secondary.
We dont want firemen to become
traffic directors, he said.
The fire was one of two destructive
California infernos that were sending
smoke wafting hundreds of miles
(kilometers) away to Las Vegas and
Reno, Nevada, where officials issued
air pollution warnings.
A blaze in the scenic Big Sur region
of the Central Coast by Monday had
destroyed 20 homes and threatened
1,650 others as it burned 23 square
miles (60 square kilometers).
In Santa Clarita, 30 miles (48 kilometers) northwest of downtown Los
Angeles, a fire broke out Friday near a
highway and quickly spread through
arid vegetation in rugged mountains

before making its way down into


canyons with sprawling subdivisions
of large homes.
By Monday, about 10 percent of
Santa Claritas 200,000 residents had
been ordered out of their homes as
erratic winds stoked the blaze.
The fire exploded Saturday like a
crazy storm, said Kara Franklin, who
said sand driven by heavy winds hit her
in the face as she tried to get a horse
and donkey into a trailer so she could
tow the animals away. From a ridgetop,
she saw flames engulf a neighborhood.
When the blaze appeared to die
down, she thought the worst was over
and returned. Then it flared up again,
and she and her son used a garden hose
to put out embers that ignited spot
fires on her property before fleeing.
The heat was so intense, Franklin
said Monday from a high school that
had been turned into an evacuation
center. It was an inferno that was
blazing . . . just coming over the
ridge.

SACRAMENTO California Gov. Jerry Brown signed


legislation Monday requiring that newly purchased vehicles display temporary license plates,
approving the bill despite objections
from social justice activists who say it
will lead to more fines and economic
hardships for poor people.
The bill aimed to stop toll-road cheats
and ensure law enforcement officers can
identify vehicles on the road. California
currently requires only a small notice of
sale, which cant be read or phoJerry Brown tographed from a distance, to be displayed on a vehicle while the owner is
waiting for permanent plates.
The bill (AB516) by Assemblyman
Kevin Mullin, a Democrat from South
San Francisco, will require car dealers to
put a temporary license plate on a vehicle when they sell it, beginning in 2019.
Altering the expiration date would be a
crime, with an option for prosecutors to
Kevin Mullin decide whether to charge as a misdemeanor or felony.
Mullin estimates that vehicles without license plates that
skip tolls on roads and bridges cost the state $15 million a
year.
Consumer and civil rights advocates worry it will significantly increase the number of people who receive fines for
paperwork violations, because it would be easier for police
to spot expired temporary plates. They also worry people
will be fined if their permanent license plates dont arrive
on time due to mistakes by dealers or the Department of
Motor Vehicles.
Critics warn that fines for registration violations could
subject low-income drivers who cant afford the fines to a
cascading series of court fines and late fees.
It is blatantly unjust, and a waste of state resources, to
penalize consumers by making it illegal for them to drive
their own cars, when they have not received their permanent license plates within the 90-day deadline due to circumstances beyond their control, Rosemary Shahan, president of the advocacy group Consumers for Auto Reliability
and Safety, wrote in a letter urging Brown to veto the bill.
That can happen, she said, when dealers dont submit
paperwork, go out of business, or sell vehicles with unpaid
liens or tickets.
The legislation protects people from fines if they can
prove theyve submitted registration paperwork to the
DMV, but Shahan and other critics say the protection isnt
strong enough.

Clinton, right? Trump told the crowd.
Maybe thats why, its too close.
Trump has repeatedly referred to Clinton
as Crooked Hillary.
The event was held in the home state of
Clintons new running mate, Sen. Tim
Kaine, whom Trump derided as a weird little
dude and a political hack. Trump argued
that Clinton made a mistake when she chose

Kaine, describing the well-liked former


governor and senator as the opposite of a
fiery liberal that supporters of Clintons
former rival Bernie Sanders may have been
drawn to.
Many of Sanders supporters remain
deeply committed to their candidate, holding demonstrations in Philadelphia and
booing mentions of Clinton on the convention floor.
But most of Trumps speech focused on
Clinton.
The billionaire businessman unleashed
a barrage of attacks against Clinton in
light of the latest scandal to overshadow
her run for office, accusing her of disloyalty for not protecting outgoing
Democratic
National
Committee
Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz
following the release of hacked emails
that suggest some DNC staffers favored
Clinton over Sanders.
Trump claims Wasserman Schultz worked
very hard to rig the system in Clintons
favor, and that Clinton responded by throwing her under the bus.

SACRAMENTO An online magazine


opinion piece attributed to Californias lieutenant governor contains at least one paragraph that largely initially appeared elsewhere, while several of the Democratic
politicians Twitter and Facebook posts
from the last month lack citations to their
original sources.
In an article criticizing Republican vicepresidential candidate Mike Pence for his
record on lesbian and gay issues, Democratic
Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom wrote about Pences
support for conversion therapy a discredited practice intended to retrain gay people.
One paragraph contains sentences nearly
identical to those on the website of the
National Center for Lesbian Rights, but it is
not attributed as such.
Kate Kendell, executive director of NCLR,
said she knew Newsom was writing the piece
and sent material to his team, likely including that specific link, which she encouraged
them to use.
If somebodys suggesting thats plagiarism, thats hilarious, she said. Its opensource material that anybody who googles
conversion therapy methods would get this
paragraph of methods that are used.
Several other posts on Newsoms Twitter

Defense Secretary Carter casts doubt


on military partnership with Russia
By Robert Burns
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Defense Secretary Ash


Carter on Monday cast doubt on prospects
for a military partnership with Russia to
combat the Islamic State inside Syria.
At a Pentagon news conference with Gen.
Joseph Dunford, chairman of the Joint
Chiefs of Staff, Carter was asked his view of
Secretary of State John Kerrys efforts to
establish military cooperation in Syria. He
said the problem is that Russia is focused
mainly on supporting the Syrian government, which he said has had the effect of
prolonging the civil war.
We had hoped that they would promote a
political solution and transition to put an
end to the civil war, which is the beginning
of all this violence in Syria, and then combat extremists rather than moderate opposition, which has to be part of that transition, Carter said. So theyre a long way
from doing that.
When a reporter told Carter that he sound-

sentenced a California man to 15 years in

of mental problems.
Orange County native Adam Dandach, 22,
was also ordered to undergo supervised
release for the rest of his life after he pleaded guilty last year to trying to provide material support to a terror group and lying on
his passport application.
The case against Dandach is one in a

mind in Russia. But thats what Secretary
Kerry is working toward.
Kerry has been talking to Russian officials about a proposal in which the U.S.
would share intelligence and targeting
information with the Russians. In exchange
Moscow would use its influence with the
Syrian regime to effectively ground the People gather at a site hit by airstrikes in Aleppo, Syria.

U.N. calls for 48-hour


pause in Syrias Aleppo
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

UNITED NATIONS Weekly 48-hour


humanitarian pauses are urgently needed in
Syrias Aleppo city where fighting has left
over a quarter of a million people trapped and
in desperate need of aid, the U.N. humanitarian chief said Monday.
Stephen OBrien told the Security Council
that he could not stress enough how critical
the situation is in the eastern part of Aleppo,
which risks becoming the largest besieged
area in the country. Food supplies are expected to run out in mid-August and many medical
facilities continue to be attacked, he said.
This is medieval and shameful, OBrien
said. We must not allow this to happen. But
the clock is ticking.
Britains U.N. Ambassador Matthew
Rycroft said he received an email Monday
morning from a doctor at Aleppo Childrens
Hospital saying if nothing is done we are
surely facing death.
Eastern Aleppo City is now encircled by
the regime, said Rycroft. The Castello road,
a vital route for food, medicine and supplies,
is cut off. ... Yet another humanitarian catastrophe awaits.
Syrian government forces and their allies
cut the Castello road, the main link to rebelheld parts of the country, on July 17 laying
siege to opposition-held parts of Aleppo. The

countrys largest city and former commercial


center has been contested since July 2012 and
Aleppo residents have been reporting shortages of food in rebel-held parts of the city
because of the siege.
Russias U.N. Ambassador Vitaly Churkin
said the road was being used to deliver aid to
terrorists. U.S. Ambassador Samantha
power demanded that the road be reopened.
OBrien said his call for 48-hour pauses
must be backed by the Security Council, the
U.N.s most powerful body.
Japans U.N. Ambassador Koro Bessho, the
current council president, said there was
overwhelming support from the 15 members but wouldnt say whether a resolution is
planned.
The United Nations says there are nearly
half a million people in besieged areas in
Syria and an estimated 4.5 million Syrians are
in so-called hard-to-reach areas.
The Syrian military declared a unilateral,
three-day cease-fire for the entire country on
July 6, coinciding with the start of the
Muslim Eid al-Fitr holiday, but it didnt hold.
The previous high-profile cessation of hostilities brokered by the United States and
Russia and declared on Feb. 27, sharply
reduced violence in much of the country. But it
collapsed in April with a government offensive in the northern province of Aleppo
against a coalition of insurgent groups.

What I saw in Cleveland

Letters to the editor


A dangerous
pattern of similarities
Editor,
In analyzing the police shootings
of black men over the past two
years, including the most recent
police shooting incidents, there is a
dangerous pattern that is quite evident. In all of these shootings, the
black men were committing a crime,
or a series of crimes. These men
were endangering the lives of the
public, their own lives and the lives
of the police officers involved.
When the police arrived on the
scene, the suspects failed to cooperate with police as the police were
investigating the crime; they failed
to comply with the police commands and instructions; or, failed to
be allowed to be searched by police,
which are all crimes.
The suspects resisted arrest, which
is a crime, struggled with police by
fighting with the police, hitting the
police or even trying to kill the
police by taking an officers gun.
Some of the suspects used their size,
weight or strength to resist arrest or
to escape. And, more and more of the
suspects are carrying a gun or have a
toy gun that was altered and painted
to look like a real gun. All of these
types of circumstances are a dangerous threat to police officers.
In the recent Louisiana shooting,
why does the suspect have to illegally carry a gun, just to sell his
illegally recorded CDs? Why does he
have to brandish his gun to scare off
a homeless guy? In the Minnesota
case, why does an elementary school
district cafeteria employee have to
carry a gun?
These two incidents alone are a
dangerous pattern that is becoming
an all-too common dangerous threat
to police officers, who are just
doing their jobs.
Its not about race; it is about law
and order.

Is your Dad there?


Editor,
One thing Hillary Clinton would
be good to touch upon in her speech
this week would be American family
values, and the lack thereof. Many
people dont understand, that a
healthy society starts out with
healthy families. A child learns to
socialize first within its own family
between its brothers and sisters.
There are too many single mothers
handling the full load of raising
young children in America today. If
you really want to make America
great again then restore a mans role
in the lives of his children.

Our national religion


is secular humanism
Editor,
Congress shall make no law
respecting an establishment of religion or prohibiting the free exercise
thereof.
The Founding Fathers of our
Constitution established this law to
prevent an establishment of a
national religion and not to have
any jurisdiction in matters of religion. The First Amendment
absolutely did not apply to the federal government. It was meant to
give the individual state governments absolute jurisdiction over the
free exercise of religion.
The problem arose in 1940 and
again in 1947 when the Supreme
Court applied the First Amendment
to the states, which turned the First
Amendment on its head and completely distorted its true meaning.
Our Founding Fathers, who established the U.S. Constitution based
on biblical principles, were Godfearing men who believed that for a
country to stand that it must have a
solid foundation based on Christian
principles.
In June 1961, Torcase V. Watkins,
the U.S. Supreme Court stated,
among religions in this country
which do not teach the existence of
God are Buddhism, Taoism, ethical
culture, secular humanism and others. The removal of public prayer

Republican
Convention and Beyond
Editor,
I cringe at the thought of a president Donald Trump representing us
at home and abroad. I am registered
as an independent. While I am not a
big fan of Hillary Clinton, I will
vote for her in November. I figure a
vote for a third-party candidate or
not voting at all is really a vote for
Trump. By voting for Clinton, I am
really voting for the Democratic
platform, which is not perfect, but
is, as Representative Barbara
Lee(D-CA13)put it, the most progressive Democratic Party platform
in history unlike the republican
one that looks backward. The progressive nature of the platform is
due in large part to Bernie Sanders.
I am appalled at the negativity of
the Republican convention, long on
generalizations and platitudes but
short on specific plans. But that has
been true throughout Trumps campaign. I saw very little except
defend our freedoms and be faithful to the Constitution. Im not
sure which constitution they were
talking about; it certainly didnt
sound like ours.
I would have expected attacks on
Clinton but not so misogynistic.
Ted Cruzs refusal to support Trump
was the highlight of the convention
for me.
In sum, the Republican convention was just more of Trumpsdivisive style and embrace of white
resentment politics,a time when
discrimination and hate were not
only accepted but celebrated. Lets
look at the bigger picture, bite the
bullet and put Trump and Pence in
the dust bin of history.

leveland is a great American city; if you havent


been there, you should visit sometime. Situated
on the shores of Lake Erie, it offers balmy summer
weather and attractions like the Cleveland Museum of Art,
the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and, yes, LeBron James
and the Cleveland Cavaliers. It should be part of every
Americans Great Lakes tour.
However, I didnt learn any of this last week, as I wasnt
in Cleveland. Like many of you, I watched the Republican
National Convention on television. And what I saw
reminded me of the Cleveland of years gone by the Rust
Belt years, the decline years and the burning Cuyahoga
River years.
Promised an exciting convention with a stage full of winners, we got washed-up actors,
minor reality TV stars and a
parade of Trumps in competition
with the Kardashians. Promised
unity; we got a party at war with
itself. Promised new ideas, we
got a platform that embraces
Bernie Sanders 1930s redux
ideas on the economy, bends to
the authoritarian Vladimir Putin
on the Ukrainian crisis and,
remarkably, more anti-LGBT
John McDowell
than past platforms despite what
Donald Trump said in his acceptance speech.
In addition, we got a Republican Party that while critiquing the Obama years and tying Hillary Clinton to its
failures, itself failed to offer a positive and proactive
vision for the future. There was no shining city on a
hill, there was no morning in America, there was no
thousand points of light. Instead, we were treated to
chants of lock her up as the unifying principle.
That is the greatest failing of the convention and todays
Republican Party. There is no there, there. No great underlying values and principles unify Republicans. Rather than
a positive agenda, we are offered only a common enemy.
Absent the divisive and negative campaign of Hillary
Clinton (38 percent of Americans rate her favorably,
according to Real Clear Politics), Republicans would
immediately break into more warring camps than were seen
last week.
Even the defeated Never Trumpers are split. On one hand
are those clinging to a consistent conservative position
represented by U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz and, on the other, Wall
Street Journal types who follow the recommendations of
the RNCs Growth and Opportunity Project for comprehensive immigration reform.
For those supporting Trump, there are the true believers
and the establishment that has co-opted them, especially
here in California. Wanting to preserve its power, perks
and patronage, the California Republican Party establishment eagerly embraced Trump as soon as it was clear that
he would be the nominee, if they agreed with him or not.
As David Erlich, chair of the Alameda County
Republican Party, noted of a prominent establishment
GOP operative and strategist now a Trump delegate, Ive
watched him snarl at the sound of Donald Trumps name. If
youre going to be for somebody, be for somebody but
dont lie. It makes my stomach turn, he told the Mercury
News.
These two camps despise each other and will quickly face
off once the election is over. Throw in the few remaining
neo-cons, disaffected social conservatives and a rump
group of libertarians and the possibility of widespread factional strife intensies.
Donald Trump has his work cut out for him. Heading into
the general election, he needs to reach skeptical voters
(Real Clear Politics has his favorable rating at 34 percent)
while at the same time bridging the gaps in the Republican
base. Notably, bridging those gaps just got harder as he
announced that he will be funding super PACs to end the
careers of Ohio Gov. John Kasich and Sen. Cruz.
It remains to be seen whether antipathy toward Hillary
Clinton and saying she has committed terrible crimes
will work as an organizing principle. Can a thin agenda of
building a wall on the southern border, ripping up trade
agreements, personality and persona be enough or will
voters clamor for something more?
The Democrat National Convention next week in
Philadelphia will answer some of these questions. Few
Democrats appear to be passionate about Clinton, and her
carefully crafted, focus group approved statements portray
her as an inauthentic and manipulative politician. If she
cannot overcome her negatives, voters wont care much
about policy agendas and instead will focus on who they
dislike the most.
Like the rising city, the convention in Cleveland had a
chance to be positive and optimistic. Instead, it fell into
negativity, division and a gloomy view of the future. For
the sake of the Republican Party and America, I hope thats
not a portent of things to come.

what Yahoo has accomplished: This


transaction is about unleashing
Yahoos full potential, AOL CEO
Tim Armstrong said in a statement.
Despite Yahoos travails, its
operations are a prize for Verizon,
which wants to capitalize on the
growing number of people living
their digital lives on smartphones.
The company already profits from
the data plans that connect more
than 100 million people and their
devices to the internet. Now its
making plans to control more of
the advertising on those devices.
Most analysts expect the deal to
end the four-year reign of Yahoos
Mayer, who flopped in her muchwatched attempt to turn around the
company that was once a titan valued at $130 billion.
However, Mayer told employees

Monday in an email that she


intends to stay to see Yahoo into
its next chapter without specifying for how long. In a later interview with the Associated Press, she
said its too early to know whether
there will still be a desirable role
for her after Yahoo and AOL are
combined.
It would be premature and presumptive of me to discuss what
Verizon may or may not want to do.
I will be open-minded, said Mayer,
who could receive a severance package valued at $55 million If she
leaves following the sale.
In its announcement, Verizon did
not discuss Mayers future or its
long-term plans for Yahoo.
Shareholders fed up with a steep
downturn in the companys revenue
over the past eight years pressured

Yahoo Inc. to part with its email


service and still-popular websites
devoted to news, finance and
sports, in addition to its advertising tools.
The slump deepened even as
advertisers poured torrents of cash
into what is now a $160 billion
market for digital advertising,
according to research firm
eMarketer.
But most of that money has
flowed to Google and Facebook,
two companies that eclipsed Yahoo
during its long slide from a sensation to a dysfunctional also-ran.
The sale could result in thousands
of layoffs as Verizon eliminates
overlapping jobs and services in
Yahoo and AOL. Mayer has already
jettisoned 1,900 Yahoo workers
since last September.

The U.S. economy is in better
shape than other advanced
economies, but expectations are
that the Fed will hold interest rates
steady and look to raise interest
rates later this year. Securities that
bet on which way the Fed will
move interest rates show only a 10
percent chance of a rate increase
this week. The Feds two-day meeting starts Tuesday.
Technology companies will
dominate quarterly earnings news
this week, including results from

Aroldis Chapman, who earned his 20th save of the year for the Yankees last Friday against the Giants, was traded to the Chicago Cubs Monday
in exchange for four players, including former Oakland As minor league outfielder Billy McKinney.

Cubs land Chapman


Team with NLs best record gets better with flamethrowing closer
By Jay Cohen
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CHICAGO The Chicago Cubs acquired


hard-throwing reliever Aroldis Chapman in
a trade with the New York Yankees on
Monday, giving the NL Central leaders a
boost as they try for their first World Series
title in more than a century.
The Cubs paid a steep price, parting with
top shortstop prospect Gleyber Torres and
versatile pitcher Adam Warren in the fourplayer package going to the Yankees.

Chapman also faced a domestic violence


allegation in the offseason that cost him a
29-game suspension, and the left-hander is
eligible for free agency after this year.
But there is no doubting the talent of the
28-year-old Chapman, who went 3-0 with a
2.01 ERA and 20 saves in 31 games with
New York. He threw a 105.1 mph fastball to
Baltimores J.J. Hardy last Monday night,
matching the fastest since Major League
Baseball began tracking speeds in 2008.
With lefty-batting sluggers Bryce Harper
of Washington and Brandon Belt of San

Francisco possibly looming in the playoffs, the addition of Chapman gives manager Joe Maddon one of the majors top assets
when in need of a late strikeout.
Obviously, we are aware of the circumstances surrounding Aroldis Chapmans suspension earlier this season, Cubs
Chairman Tom Ricketts said. I shared with
him the high expectations we set for our
players and staff both on and off the field.
Aroldis indicated he is comfortable with

emember how everyone was


fawning over the San Francisco
Giants and their rst-half performance? How, despite a slew of injuries
and a shaky bullpen, they found themselves with the best record in baseball at
the All-Star break?
Well, the law of averages has caught
up. They are coming off a 1-7 road trip
heading into Mondays game against
Cincinnati, and looked horrible in doing
so. A starting rotation that went from one
of the best to one of the worst nearly
overnight, and an offense that is struggling mightily to score runs.
The good news is, the Giants still have
a decent lead over the second-place
Dodgers, and still
have time to right
the ship.
***
What the heck is
wrong with MLB
schedule makers? It
gives the Giants
two days off last
week one as
they travelled to
Boston from San
Diego, and the second to make that
agonizingly long trip from Boston to
New York.
Uh, maybe it should have saved that
second day off for tonight. After wrapping up three-game set in New York, the
Giants ew back across the country
Sunday night to start a home stand
Monday.
A 1-7 road trip, followed by a crosscountry trip for a game Monday night?
Expect to see San Franciscos post AllStar break record to fall to 1-8.

Meanwhile, the Oakland As are doing
what they do best: nally playing good
baseball after all but losing the season in
the rst half.
The As are 7-3 since the end of the AllStar break and are doing it in exciting
fashion: winning a number of games with
walk-offs.

OT Anthony Davis files


to return to NFL after
one-year retirement

SANTA CLARA Offensive tackle


Anthony Davis says he plans to return to
the NFL after announcing his retirement a
little more than a year ago.
Davis said Monday on Twitter that he has
sent his reinstatement

San Francisco 49ers. He
announced his retirement
at age 25 in June 2015
following a head injury
but left open the possibility of a comeback after

Davis was the 11th
overall pick by San Francisco in the 2010

and appeared in eight playoff games with
the 49ers.
The 49ers retain his rights and will have
to clear a spot on the roster once he is officially reinstated by the league.

Seven Russian swimmers to miss Rio


By James Ellingworth
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MOSCOW Seven Russian swimmers


have been barred from the Rio de Janeiro
Olympics, including three linked to recent
allegations of a major doping cover-up by
Russian authorities, world swimmings governing body FINA said Monday.
Reigning world 100-meter breaststroke
champion Yulia Efimova is among four
Russian swimmers withdrawn by the
Russian swimming federation because they
previously served doping bans, FINA said.
The others are Natalya Lovtsova, Anastasia
Krapivina and Mikhail Dovgalyuk.
The International Olympic Committee on
Sunday said Russian athletes with previous
doping bans would be banned from the Rio
Games. That followed the IOCs decision not
to ban the entire Russian team over allegations of state-sponsored doping.
FINA said three more swimmers were identified by World Anti-Doping Agency investigator Richard McLaren when he examined
evidence that Russian government officials
ordered the cover-up of hundreds of doping
tests.
They are 2008 Olympic silver and 2012
bronze medalist Nikita Lobintsev, bronze
medalist Vladimir Morozov and world junior
record holder Daria Ustinova.
Russias top Olympic official, Alexander
Zhukov, told Russian agency R-Sport that
he now believed a total of 13 Russians would
be ineligible due to previous doping bans.
They would be withdrawn from the team, he
added.
The 13 are likely to include athletes in
swimming,
cycling,
weightlifting,
wrestling and rowing.
On Sunday, the IOCs executive board
asked individual global sports federations to
decide on the entry of Russian athletes, and
announced new eligibility criteria.
The rules prohibit Russia from sending to
the Rio Games any athletes who have previously served doping bans. Sports federations can also reject Russian entries if they
have not undergone enough international
drug testing. Results of Russian tests will

Reigning world champion in the 100-meter breaststroke Yulia Efimova is one of seven Russians who will not compete in Rio due to serving previous doping bans.
not be accepted following allegations of
routine cover-ups at Moscows anti-doping
laboratory.
It remains unclear whether there could be
legal challenges to the IOC criteria. A similar
IOC measure, known as the Osaka Rule,
which would have prohibited any athletes
who had received doping bans from competing in the subsequent Olympics, was declared
invalid by the Court of Arbitration for Sport.
Zhukov said the IOCs latest criteria violated the principle of equality because they
only applied to Russia, although he has previously ruled out legal action.
However, Russian Swimming Federation
president Vladimir Salnikov told the state
Tass agency that the four swimmers cut from
its team have the chance to appeal to CAS.
Efimovas agent, Andrei Mitkov, told
Russias Sportbox website that she intended
to file an appeal if she was not allowed to
compete.
Russias track and field athletes remain
barred from the games by the IAAF, a decision upheld last week by CAS and accepted
by the IOC.
Now, with the Aug. 5 opening ceremony
approaching, it is up to the remaining 27
international sports federations to vet
Russian athletes on an individual basis.
The
International
Weightlifting
Federation said Monday it was seeking further clarification from the IOC and WADA
before making a decision on which Russian

athletes can be cleared to compete at Rio.


The Budapest-based IWF said some
points might lead to confusion regarding
the IOC ruling giving individual sports federations the responsibility of deciding who
can compete in Rio.
The IWF said no Russian weightlifter
sanctioned for doping will be allowed to
compete even if they had already served
their suspension and that it was waiting
for evidence from the Russian athletes
entered for Rio before making its decision.
The archery federation said Monday it had
approved the entry of three Russian archers
after determining they have no links to doping.
World Archery said it was satisfied that the
three female Russian archers nominated for
the games had been tested extensively and
have never been sanctioned for doping.
They were listed as Tuiana Dashidorzhieva,
Ksenia Perova and Inna Stepanova.
Archery was not implicated in the World
Anti-Doping Agency report released last
week by Canadian lawyer Richard McLaren,
which accused Russia of covering up doping
in 20 summer Olympic sports.
Russian archers have been targeted for
additional testing, both in and out of competition, since the report was released, the federation said.
No Russian archery athlete has received
an adverse analytical finding, it said,
adding that it would submit its findings to
the IOC.

to a 24-9 win Monday in Larkspur.

P-Town strikes
back for big W
By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Pacifica American bounced back with a big


win Monday in the Northern California 9-10
State Championship Tournament, trouncing
Susanville 24-9 in an elimination game at Joe
Wagner Field in Larkspur.
Sending 10 batters to the plate in the first
inning, P-Town rallied for six runs and kept
adding on. Cleanup hitter Mason Mini got his
team on the board with a two-run double in the
first. Mini went on to a 4-for-5 day with four
RBIs and four runs scored.
Pacifica totaling 25 hits on the afternoon
led the entire way and went on to score in
all but one inning. Because the green-andgold held a nine-run differential at 18-9 after
five innings of play, the mercy rule was not
invoked. It gave Pacifica a chance to send 10
more batters to the plate in the sixth.
Mini who had started every game behind
the plate prior to Monday also got the job
done on the mound, working 2 2/3 innings as
Pacificas starter to earn the win. The righthander faced the minimum through two
innings, but ran into some trouble as
Susanville scored five times in the third. The
Pacifica bullpen of Anthony Wierzba and J.T.
Snead worked the final 3 1/3 innings to close
out the victory.
Snead added four hits on the day, while
Dylan Uter and Evann Smith totaled three hits
apiece. Benny Hatch launched his first home
run of the tournament, a two-run shot to cap
the first-inning rally.
With the win, Pacifica advances through the
losers bracket to play Wednesday at 5 p.m.

ARLINGTON, Texas Adrian Beltre got


the fastball he wanted.
Beltres second home run of the game
was a two-run shot on the first pitch from
Ryan Madson with two outs in the ninth
inning, and it rallied the Texas Rangers

night for their third
straight win.
Hes a really good
pitcher, really good
changeup, Beltre said.
I was hoping that he
would throw me something over the plate that
Ryan Madson I could drive, and thats
exactly what he did.
Madson was feeling good after converting
all four save opportunities since the AllStar break, while Oakland was winning
seven of 10 games.
A good fastball-hitting guy, sitting fastball, Madson said. Maybe I was being a
little bullheaded, trying to beat him instead
of putting it in a good place.
The heater I had for the last whole week,
I was confident in it. It just happened to end
up middle-middle to a fastball-hitting guy.
Madson had his sixth blown save in 27
opportunities.
Ian Desmond homered early for the
Rangers. They increased their AL West lead
for the first time since June 26, to 3 1/2

New concussion TRADE


protocol for NFL
Continued from page 11

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK The NFL and the players


association have announced a new policy
regarding game-day concussion protocol
and discipline for clubs that violate the
procedure.
Under the new policy jointly announced
Monday, the NFL and
NFLPA will follow a
strict and fair process to
investigate incidents and
determine appropriate discipline, including club
fines and possible forfeiture of draft picks.
The league and the players
union will each desigRoger Goodell
nate a representative to
monitor the implementation of the protocol
and investigate potential violations. The
probe wont reach medical conclusions; it
will only determine if the protocol was followed. An arbitrator will handle cases where
the league and union disagree and report to
the commissioner.
Commissioner Roger Goodell retains sole
discretion in determining penalties for violations of the game-day concussion protocol.
A first breach will require club employees
or medical team members involved to attend
remedial education and/or result in a maximum $150,000 fine against the team. Clubs
will be fined a minimum $100,000 for subsequent violations.
There are additional penalties if the violation involves aggravating circumstances,
and the commissioner may impose more
severe financial penalties and require clubs to
forfeit draft picks if its determined that a
clubs medical team ignored protocol for
competitive reasons.

meeting those expectations.


New York had won six of eight heading
into Monday nights game at Houston, but
it still faces long odds of getting to the
playoffs. All-Stars Andrew Miller and
Dellin Betances are still at the back of the
bullpen, allowing the Yankees to trade
Chapman now and still consider trying for
the postseason depending on how they fare
ahead of the Aug. 1 non-waiver trade deadline.
The Yankees made the decision to trade
Chapman after his agents said he would not
agree to a new contract that would start in
2017, a person familiar with the talks said.
The person spoke on condition of
anonymity because no public statement on
those talks was authorized.
If New York slips back any further, it
could engage in a rare sell-off for the franchise. Miller, who is signed through 2018,

also could be traded. Outfielder Carlos


Beltran, first baseman Mark Teixeira and
pitcher Ivan Nova are eligible for free
agency after the season and could be sought
by contenders.
I think when the right buy or sell circumstance presents itself, this department
will be making a recommendation to ownership and they will tell us what they want,
Cashman said.
Chapman quickly turned into one of baseballs most dominant relievers when he
broke into the majors in 2010 with
Cincinnati. He threw the 62 fastest pitches
in the major leagues last season, ranging
from 103.92 to 102.36 mph.
Chapman saved 146 games with a 2.17
ERA in six years with the Reds before he
was traded to New York last December after a
deal with the Los Angeles Dodgers fell
through when it was learned Florida police
investigated an accusation of domestic violence involving the Cuban pitcher.
Prosecutors declined to file charges, citing conflicting accounts, and Chapman was
suspended for the first 29 games of the season,
losing
$1, 856, 557
of his
$11,325,000 salary. He was the first player

penalized a finite number of games under


Major League Baseballs domestic violence
policy.
I regret that I did not exercise better
judgment and for that I am truly sorry,
Chapman said in a team statement Monday.
Looking back, I feel I have learned from
this matter and have grown as a person. My
girlfriend and I have worked hard to
strengthen our relationship, to raise our
daughter together, and would appreciate the
opportunity to move forward without revisiting an event we consider part of our past.
Chapman and Cubs first baseman
Anthony Rizzo also got into a heated argument in the ninth inning of a July 2014
game, but Rizzo said last month he was fine
with the idea of acquiring the reliever as
Chicago tries to reach the World Series,
which it hasnt won since 1908.
The Yankees also received minor league
outfielders Billy McKinney and Rashad
Crawford in the trade for Chapman.
McKinney, a first-round pick in the 2013
draft, was acquired along with All-Star
shortstop Addison Russell in the 2014 deal
that sent pitchers Jeff Samardzija and Jason
Hammel to Oakland.

Lima, who found Arramdani inside the


penalty box for a quick look. Arramdanis
first attempt nailed the upright but he was
able to track down the rebound for a second
life, which he did not miss.
It was a timing run and [Lima] crossed
it, Arramdani said. It hit the post but I was
able to put it back in.
Still trailing by a goal, the Dragons kept
pushing the action. But it was a miscue by
Tucsons goalkeeper, paired with a tenacious defensive effort by forward Christian
Thierjung, that allowed Burlingame to tie it
in the 75th minute.
Thierjung was tightly marking Tucsons
defender, who sent the ball back to the goalkeeper in the far corner of the penalty box.
The keeper, however, attempted a sloppy
pass back to the same defender, only to have
Thierjung intercept it while staring downfield at an empty net, allowing Thierjung to
loft a shot into the far corner to tie it 2-2.

was more about character than any change in
strategy.
We knew we werent playing to the top of
our ability (in the first half) and we wanted
to turn that around, Bucchere said. These
guys, I wish they had more of an opportunity to go deeper (in the postseason) because
they were playing really well.
It was a dramatic finish that did in
Burlingame.
Tucsons game-winning score came after a
corner kick that initially looked like it was
going to get killed by Corti. The Dragons
keeper got both hands around a close header,

but the ball spun out of his control and back


to the Tucson point at the top of the penalty
box. Then a backward touch allowed Ramos
to sprint to the ball and shoot in stride to
score the dagger.
Burlingame finishes the season with a
record of 8-6-2. Arramdani and midfielder
Jamael Cox are both expected to get tryouts
with United Soccer League teams.
I think the next few months will be about
getting an opportunity and making the
most out of those abilities and seeing where
their ability and character can take them,
Bucchere said. I think both of those guys
are quality guys and the USL would be wise
to take a chance on them.
Like Arramdani and Cox, Bucchere was in
his second year with the Dragons. He was an
assistant coach under Dana Taylor in 2015
before being promoted to head coach in
2016.
To me, it was an honor and pleasure to
represent the Earthquakes and the Dragons
and Im looking forward to advancing the
group in the future, Bucchere said.
Also the head coach for the Menlo
College mens soccer team, Bucchere got
back to work quickly, holding the first practice for the Oaks on Monday. It is an earlier
practice opener for Menlo than previous
years, as the team prepares for a four-game
tour of Costa Rica.
Then, the Oaks open at home Aug. 16
against Cal State Stanislaus in non-league
action, a team coached by former Dragons
coach Taylor.

N.Y. inspector general faults state boxing commission


By Michael Virtanen
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ALBANY, N. Y. An investigation
launched by New Yorks inspector general
after a pro fighter suffered nearly fatal
injuries concluded the state boxing commission was plagued by deficient practices,
limited oversight and conflicts of interest.
Inspector General Catherine Leahy Scott
said her offices probe into the New York
State Athletic Commission was prompted
by the severe brain injuries and poor postfight treatment suffered by heavyweight
Magomed Abdusalamov in 2013 at
Madison Square Garden.
Investigators said the fighter walked out-

MANNING
Continued from page 11
Denvers 24-10 win over Carolina in Super
Bowl 50, welcomed the probe.
In December, Al-Jazeera reported that an
intern at an Indianapolis anti-aging clinic
was secretly recorded suggesting that
Mannings wife received deliveries of HGH
in 2011 while the quarterback was recovering from neck fusion surgery. The intern,
Charles Sly, recanted his statements, which
were recorded without his knowledge. He
said they were fabricated in an attempt to
impress a potential business partner.
Manning angrily denounced the report,
calling it completely fabricated, complete
trash, garbage, and insisting he never
took shortcuts in his return to football after
missing 2011 with neck problems.

side afterward, vomited, then was taken by


his handlers in a 15-minute taxi ride to
Roosevelt Hospital, though there were
ambulances available at the arena. He had
emergency surgery for bleeding in his brain.
The commissions lack of appropriate
emergency medical protocols and oversight
procedures, as well as clear conflicts of interest among senior staff, reflect a systemic
breakdown of its most basic operations,
Scott said Monday. With the commission
poised to regulate mixed martial arts in addition to pro boxing, she said reforms are
imperative.
She recommended standard pre-fight and
post-fight physical and neurological examinations, giving communications devices

to all staff, having a tactical emergency


plan to address medical issues at any time
and ethics training.
New Yorks Department of State, which
oversees the commission, said it has taken
steps to implement many of Scotts recommendations. Commission Chairman Tom
Hoovers resignation was accepted, the department said.
Hoover was criticized in the report for
permitting friends and relatives to obtain
credentials allowing them to attend pro
boxing matches for free.
Abdusalamov, a former Russian amateur
champion, was an unbeaten professional until
his 10-round loss to Mike Perez that night. He
remains disabled.

At the time the allegations were levied,


both the Broncos and the Colts, whom
Manning played for from 1998-2011,
issued statements in support of the fivetime MVP.
Manning said he sought holistic treatments such as hyperbaric oxygen and nutrient therapy at the Guyer Institute of
Molecular Medicine with knowledge and
consent of the Colts training and medical
staff following his four neck surgeries. He
insisted he never used performance-enhancing substances and never took anything
sent to his wife.
HGH is banned by professional sports
leagues and is only legal to prescribe in a
few specific medical conditions.
The NFL and players union added human
growth hormone testing to the collective
bargaining agreement signed in 2011, but
the sides didnt agree to testing terms until
2014. Nobody has tested positive, which
would trigger a four-game suspension.

The Al-Jazeera report alleged other highprofile athletes obtained PEDs, including
baseball stars Ryan Howard of the
Philadelphia Phillies and Ryan Zimmerman
of the Washington Nationals.
The report also named four other prominent NFL players: Clay Matthews and Julius
Peppers of the Green Bay Packers, James
Harrison of the Pittsburgh Steelers and free
agent Mike Neal.
Unlike Manning, those four players dont
want to talk to NFL investigators.
The NFLPA released a statement Monday
saying: As a former player, Peyton
Manning is free to do whatever he believes
is in his best interest. The Union knows
that he understands the rights of players
under the Collective Bargaining Agreement
and would never do anything to hurt or
undermine active players in support of
those rights.

Trailblazers guard CJ McCollum signed a


four-year, $106 million extension Monday.

McCollum agrees
to 4-year extension
By Anne M. Peterson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

PORTLAND, Ore. CJ McCollum agreed


to a four-year, $106 million contract extension with the Portland Trail Blazers, a person familiar with the deal said.
The person spoke to The Associated Press
on condition of anonymity Monday because
the deal hadnt been announced. It was first
reported by Yahoo Sports.
McCollum was voted the NBAs Most
Improved Player after averaging 20. 8
points, 3.2 rebounds and 4.3 assists during
the regular season. He raised his scoring
average by more than 14 points over the
previous season.
As the 10th overall draft pick in 2013,
McCollum bided his time on the bench his
first two seasons. The 24-year-old guard
became a starter in the backcourt with
Damian Lillard last season after four of the
teams starters left in the offseason.

said. But I feel as though I would
be going back to football versus
moving forward.
Jennings also spent two seasons
with the Minnesota Vikings. But
hes best known for his seven years
with the Green Bay Packers.
Jennings caught two touchdowns
from quarterback Aaron Rodgers in
the Packers 31-25 win over the
Pittsburgh Steelers in Super Bowl

XLV on Feb. 6, 2011.


I think great memories for his
time here, particularly in (the Super
Bowl.) Made some huge plays in
the football game, Packers coach
Mike McCarthy said at Lambeau
Field, where players were reporting
for training camp on Monday.
Greg could light up a room with
a smile. Played a lot of really good
football for us, McCarthy said.
Jennings caught 53 touchdowns

in Green Bay before the Packers let


him go as a free agent after the
2012 season. Green Bay drafted
Jennings in the second round of the
2006 draft.
Jennings thanked fans for their
support, and said he had so many
things going on, planning to
share plans in the future.
Im done. But Im just getting
started, a smiling Jennings said,
clapping his hands.

LOUNGE

his power to get traded out of ChiTown.


His latest bid, however, may
backre on him because after his
recent incident, teams may back
away from a guy who may have a
screw loose.
Apparently, Sale was so unenamored with Chicagos throwback
uniform, he went the civil disobedience route, slashing and cutting
the uniforms so they could not be
used.
Sale, subsequently, was suspended for ve days.
For those that go back that far,
I dont blame Sale. Have you seen
the 1970s White Sox uniforms?
You thought those 1980s, multicolored unis were hideous? They
were a vast improvement over the
previous incarnation, which featured disco-era collars and Im
not kidding shorts. Many compared them to adult-league softball uniforms, but I never saw
softball uniforms as bad as those
used by Chicago.
***
I wonder how much Russia
bribed the International Olympic
Committee to keep some of its
athletes in the Olympics?
Days after a ruling was upheld
to ban Russias entire track and
field team because of institutionalized doping, the IOC gracious-

ly allowed the possibility of


inclusion of other Russian athletes in other sports. All those
Russian athletes who wish to
compete have to prove they are
clean, which will essentially
include the following conversation:
Russian federation to Russian
athlete: Are you doping?
Russian athlete: Nope.
Russian federation: OK, youre
good to go.
Other than maybe soccers
international governing body,
FIFA, the IOC is the most corrupt,
tone-deaf, out-of-touch organization in the world. The IOC has
bankrupted at least one country
(Greece) because of the Olympics,
and another, Brazil, is on its way
as well.
Not that Russia is the only
country with athletes who use
PEDs. It does appear, however,
that it is one of the few that
allows their athletes to dope with
implicit consent from the national government which, of
course, it has denied.

Unfortunately, it probably
wont be enough to prevent Billy
Beane from having his annual re
sale. (I know David Forst is, technically, Oaklands general manager, but you think hes pulling the
trigger on trades?)
The one thing that could prevent the usual sell off is the fact
that some of the As best trade
chips pitchers Sonny Gray and
Rich Hill, and outelder Josh
Reddick dont have a lot of
value right now. Gray has suddenly become an iffy No. 3 starter,
just as ESPNs Keith Law said several years ago. Hill has struggled
with blisters the last several
weeks and Reddick was hurt for a
signicant part of the season.
That still may not be enough to
prevent Oakland from selling off
its best players because if there
is one thing that epitomizes the

Behavior changes offer clues that dementia could be brewing


By Lauran Neergaard
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Memory loss may


not always be the first warning sign
that dementia is brewing changes in
behavior or personality might be an
early clue.
Researchers on Sunday outlined a
syndrome called mild behavioral
impairment that may be a harbinger
of Alzheimers or other dementias, and
proposed a checklist of symptoms to
alert doctors and families.
Losing interest in favorite activities? Getting unusually anxious,
aggressive or suspicious? Suddenly
making crude comments in public?
Historically those symptoms have
been written off as a psychiatric issue,
or as just part of aging, said Dr.
Zahinoor Ismail of the University of
Calgary, who presented the checklist
at the Alzheimers Association
International Conference in Toronto.
Now, when it comes to early detection, memory symptoms dont have
the corner on the market anymore, he
said.
Alzheimers, the most common form
of dementia, affects more than 5 million people in the U.S., a number
growing as the population ages. It
gradually strips people of their memory and the ability to think and reason.
But it creeps up, quietly ravaging the
brain a decade or two before the first
symptoms become noticeable. Early
memory problems called mild cognitive impairment, or MCI, can raise
the risk of later developing dementia,

and worsening memory often is the


trigger for potential patients or their
loved ones to seek medical help.
Its not uncommon for people with
dementia to experience neuropsychiatric symptoms, too problems such
as depression or sundowning, agitation that occurs at the end of the day
as the degeneration spreads into brain
regions responsible for more than
memory. And previous studies have
found that people with mild cognitive
impairment are at greater risk of
decline if they also suffer more subtle
behavioral symptoms.
Whats new: The concept of predementia mild behavioral impairment, or MBI, a term that describes
specific changes in someones prior
behavior that might signal degeneration is starting in brain regions not as
crucial for memory, he said.
Ismail is part of an Alzheimers
Association committee tapped to draft
a checklist of the symptoms that qualify new problems that linger at least
six months, not temporary symptoms
or ones explained by a clear mental
health diagnosis or other issues such
as bereavement, he stressed. They
include apathy, anxiety about once
routine events, loss of impulse control, flaunting social norms, loss of
interest in food. He even cites extreme
cases, like a 68-year-old who started
using cocaine before anyone noticed
her memory trouble.
If validated, the checklist could help
doctors better identify people at risk
of brewing Alzheimers and study
changes over time.

Alzheimers, the most common form of dementia, affects more than 5 million people in the U.S., a
number growing as the population ages. It gradually strips people of their memory and the ability to
think and reason.
Its important for us to recognize
that not everythings forgetfulness,
said Dr. Ron Petersen, the Mayo
Clinics Alzheimers research chief. He
wasnt involved in developing the
behavior checklist but said it could
raise awareness of the neuropsychiatric link with dementia.

Normally patient, he began snapping at

The ballot measure proposes the extension of the existing Measure A general sales
tax and lists several possible uses of the
general tax revenues, such as the possible
use of a portion of the revenue to further

affordable housing crisis, the supervisors
wrote in the report.
The county conducted polling on both a
potential bond measure and extending the
sales tax.
About 1,200 county voters were polled
and support for a bond was just short of the
two-thirds required for passage.

people may help the brain build resilience
against dementia, whats called cognitive
reserve, University of Wisconsin
researchers reported.
The team tested 284 adults in late middleage whose brain scans showed changes that
have been linked to an increased risk of
Alzheimers. Comparing their cognitive
ability and their careers, the researchers
found those who worked primarily with people, rather than objects or data, functioned
better even if brain scans showed more of
that quiet damage.
Preliminary results from a study of
brain training suggested one type might
help delay cognitive impairment.
Researchers examined records from 2,785
older adults whod participated in a previous
trial that compared three cognitive training
strategies to improve memory, reasoning
or reaction times with no intervention. A
decade later, that reaction-time training suggested benefit: 12 percent of people whod
completed up to 10 hours had evidence of
cognitive decline or dementia compared
with 14 percent in the control
need 50 percent plus one vote to pass in
November.
The deadline to file the ballot measure is
Aug. 12 to qualify for the November ballot.
Extending the sales tax another 20 years
could give the county the ability to bond
against the future funds to support the construction of affordable housing. The funds
could also be used to purchase existing
properties to dedicate toward affordable
housing.
Affordable housing advocates praised the
board for its effort to solve the housing crisis as property values and rents continue to
soar.
The average one-bedroom in the county
now rents for $2, 590, a 37. 6 percent
increase in four years, according to the
Housing Authority.

gering tensions between Clinton and
Sanders supporters.
I want someone with the proven strength
to persevere, someone who knows this job
and takes it seriously, someone who understands the issues a president faces are not
black and white, Mrs. Obama said.
Referring to Trumps penchant for tweeting,
she said of the presidency: It cannot be
boiled down to 140 characters.
While Sanders had endorsed Clinton previously, his remarks Monday marked his
most vigorous and detailed praise of her
qualifications for the presidency. It came at
a crucial moment for Clintons campaign,
on the heels of leaked emails suggesting the
party had favored the former secretary of
state through the primaries despite a vow of
neutrality.
Sanders scored the resignation of party
chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz, a nemesis
in the primaries, but that wasnt enough to
quell the anger of supporters. As the convention opened, they still erupted in chants
of Bernie and booed Clinton the first several times her name was mentioned. Outside
the convention hall, several hundred
marched down Philadelphias sweltering
streets with signs carrying messages such
as Never Hillary.
By the time Sanders took the stage for the
nights closing address, much of the anger
had been overshadowed by speeches promoting party unity. Sanders did his part,
imploring his supporters to consider a
country under Trumps leadership.
If you dont believe this election is
important, if you think you can sit it out,
take a moment to think about the Supreme
Court justices that Donald Trump would
nominate and what that would mean to civil
liberties, equal rights and the future of our
country, he said.
Sanders spoke just after Massachusetts.
Sen. Elizabeth Warren, a favorite of liberals
who has emerged as one of the Democrats
toughest critics of Trump.
Donald Trump has no real plans for jobs,
for college kids, for seniors, she said in the
keynote address. No plans to make anything great for anyone except rich guys like
Donald Trump.
Mrs. Obama was one of the nights standouts. While she has often avoided overt politics during her nearly eight years in the
White House, her frustration with Trumps
rise was evident. She warned that the White
House couldnt be in the hands of someone
with a thin skin or a tendency to lash out
or someone who tells voters the country can
be great again.

This right now, is the greatest country on


earth, she said.
Clintons campaign hoped the nighttime
line-up would overshadow a tumultuous start
to the four-day convention. The hacked DNC
emails fed the suspicion of Sanders supporters and sapped Clintons campaign of
some of its energy following a well-received
rollout Saturday of her running mate,
Virginia Sen. Tim Kaine.
Campaigning in North Carolina, Trump
seemed to revel in the Democrats commotion, telling supporters that Clinton made a
mistake by not choosing a more liberal running mate to appease Sanders base. Crazy
Bernies going crazy right now, he said.
But in Philadelphia, Delegates waved
Love Trumps Hate signs and cheered as
immigration supporters, gay rights advocates, and labor leaders took the stage.
Comedian-turned-Sen. Al Franken, a
Clinton supporter, and actress Sarah
Silverman, a Sanders supporter, made a joint
appearance to promote party unity.
I am proud to be part of Bernies movement, Silverman said as the crowd roared.
And a vital part of that movement is making absolutely sure Hillary Clinton is our
next president of the United States.
Trump was a frequent target throughout the
night, though the jabs were often more
mocking than mean. The tone was a sharp
contrast to the Republican convention,
where the attacks against Clinton was bitingly personal, including chants of Lock
her up.
Wasserman Schultz had planned to be
among those taking the stage, despite the
email hacking controversy. But she stepped
aside, bowing to pressure from Democrats
who feared the mere sight of her on stage
would prompt strong opposition.
The outgoing chairwoman did watch the
gathering from a private suite at the arena.
Discussions between the Clinton and
Sanders camps prompted him to send emails
and text messages to supporters asking
them not to protest.
Our credibility as a movement will be
damaged by booing, turning of backs, walking out or other similar displays, Sanders
wrote.

First baby with Zika-linked


microcephaly born in Spain
MADRID Health officials in Barcelona
say a woman has given birth to a baby boy
with microcephaly associated with the Zika
virus the first detected case in Spain.
The defect was detected last May, and the
Vall dHebron University Hospital
announced Monday that both the mother
and the infant are in stable condition.
The mother, who was not identified, had
travelled earlier this year to South America
where she contracted Zika. The mosquitoborne virus can cause microcephaly, in
which babies are born with abnormally
small heads and brain damage. The phenomenon was first detected in Brazil.

Medicare safeguard
overwhelmed by
pricey medications
By Ricardo Alonso-Zaldivar

High cost drugs

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON A safeguard for Medicare


beneficiaries has become a way for drugmakers to get paid billions of dollars for
pricey medications at taxpayer expense,
government numbers show.
The cost of Medicares catastrophic prescription coverage jumped by 85 percent in
three years, from $27.7 billion in 2013 to
$51.3 billion in 2015, according to the programs number-crunching Office of the
Actuary.
Out of some 2, 750 drugs covered by
Medicares Part D benefit, two pills for hepatitis C infection Harvoni and Sovaldi
accounted for nearly $7.5 billion in catastrophic drug costs in 2015.
The pharmaceutical industry questions the
numbers, saying they overstate costs
because they dont factor in manufacturer
rebates. However, rebates are not publicly
disclosed. Sen. Charles Grassley, R-Iowa, is
calling the rise in spending alarming.
Medicares catastrophic coverage was
originally designed to protect seniors with
multiple chronic conditions from the cumulatively high costs of taking many different
pills. Beneficiaries pay 5 percent after they
have spent $4,850 of their own money.
With some drugs now costing more than
$1, 000 per pill, that threshold can be

Catastrophic spending for Harvoni and Sovaldi two


hepatitis C pills from Gilead Sciences more than doubled
in two years, from about $3.5 billion in 2014 to nearly $7.5
billion in 2015. Harvoni topped the list of Medicares highcost drugs last year; Sovaldi was first in 2014.
The FDA approved Sovaldi in Dec., 2013, and its $1,000-perpill price quickly made headlines. A congressional
investigation last year found that Gilead was focused on
maximizing revenue, even as a company analysis showed
that a lower price would allow more patients to be treated.
Revlimid, a cancer drug derived from 1950s thalidomide,
surpassed $1.7 billion in catastrophic costs in 2015, coming
in second among high-cost drugs. Spending on the
medication from biotech company Celgene increased by 50
percent in three years.
Gleevec, a breakthrough drug introduced in 2001 to treat
leukemia, was ensconced as 5th among the top ten pricey
medications, with more than $1 billion spent in 2015. That
was a 54-percent increase from 2013. Drugmaker Novartis
has been criticized for repeatedly hiking the price of Gleevec.
Catastrophic spending accounts for a fast-growing share
of Medicares drug costs, which totaled nearly $137 billion in
2015. The catastrophic share was 37 percent, yet only about
9 percent of beneficiaries reached the threshold for such
costs. For those patients, average spending jumped by 46
percent, from $9,666 in 2013 to $14,100 in 2015.

Doctors urged to check pregnant


women for Zika at each visit
NEW YORK U.S. health officials are
strongly urging doctors to ask all pregnant
women about a possible Zika infection at
every checkup.
So far, there have been no confirmed cases
of a Zika infection from a mosquito bite in
the United States, although officials expect
mosquitoes will start spreading it in
Southern states.
All U.S. illnesses have been connected to
travel to areas with Zika outbreaks.
The advice came Monday as the Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention finetuned its guidance. It urged doctors to at
least ask pregnant women if they or their
sex partner were in an outbreak area, and
suggested expanded use of a sophisticated
blood test.

Tuesday July 26, 2016

Health briefs
The Zika virus is mainly spread by mosquito bites, but also through sex. Infection
during pregnancy can result in birth defects.

Up there: Netherlands, Latvia


lead world for peoples height
NEW YORK If you want to see a tall
population of men, go to the Netherlands.
Tall women? Latvia.
And in the United States, which lags
behind dozens of other countries in height,
the average for adults stopped increasing
about 20 years ago.
Thats the word from researchers who analyzed a centurys worth of height data from
200 countries. Results were released
Monday in the journal eLife.
National height averages are useful as an
indicator of nutrition, health care, environment and general health that people have
experienced from the womb through adolescence, said Majid Ezzati of Imperial College
London, who led the research. Genes also
influence height.
The researchers calculated average height
for 18 year olds, roughly the age when people stop growing. They drew on more than
1,400 studies that covered more than 18.6
million adults who reached that age between
1914 and 2014.
Experts said the results generally agree
with what others have reported before.
The tallest men in the new analysis were
Dutch, with an average height of about 6
feet (182.5 centimeters). The next nine
tallest countries in order for men were
Belgium, Estonia, Latvia, Denmark,
Bosnia-Herzegovina, Croatia, Serbia,
Iceland and the Czech Republic.
Latvia topped the list for women, with an
average height of 5-foot-6 (170 centimeters).

crossed quickly.
Lawmakers who created Part D in 2003
also hoped added protection would entice
insurers to participate in the program.
Medicare pays 80 percent of the cost of
drugs above a catastrophic threshold that
combines spending by the beneficiary and
the insurer. That means taxpayers, not
insurers, bear the exposure for the most
expensive patients.

COURT
Continued from page 1
court Monday but his attorney for now,
Michael Rains, requested a continuance and it was granted.
Rains is a criminal defense attorney
known for representing police accused
of misconduct, including former Bay
Area Rapid Transit officer Johannes
Mehserle who was found guilty of
killing Oscar Grant in 2009.
Rains also represented Barry Bonds
in the BALCO case.
He told the Daily Journal Monday
that Winchesters family is in turmoil since Fridays arrest.
Winchester, 31, was arrested outside
the home he shares with his wife and
two children in Stockton after he was
put on indefinite leave by the San
Mateo Police Department in October
on suspicions he raped a woman at
Coyote Point.
Winchesters young son, 13, was in
the car at the time of the arrest, Rains
said. The suspect was about to take his
son to a sports practice when police
stopped him with guns drawn, Rains
said.
Its a tough time for his family. His
young son was horrified, Rains said
of the arrest.
Winchester, since being put on
leave, had mostly cared for his children while his wife worked to support
the family, Rains said.
Rains is not sure, however, whether
he or his firm will continue to repre-

ARRESTS
Continued from page 1
The investigation showed the fire
began outside the building in a nearby
courtyard, which led to fire and law
enforcement officials announcing they
believed the source was suspicious and
possibly arson, though no suspects
had been immediately identified.
Zuno declined to share details regarding evidence collected during the
investigation which led to the arrests,
but suggested social media postings
could have contributed to identifying
the suspects who ultimately admitted
to starting the fire.
He would not offer more information
illustrating what the teens may have
been doing in front of the recreation
center in the early morning hours prior
to the fire, but said neither had a criminal history.
There is no evidence linking the suspects to the small arsons which were
started recently at Taylor Middle
School, said Zuno, but investigators
are still looking into potential links.

sent the former cop with three alleged


victims in San Mateo and two others
from 2013 from the Sacramento area.
Winchesters defense may be paid for
by a statewide union fund for police
officers, Rains said.
Winchester was an officer with the
Los Rios Community College District
before being hired by the SMPD early
last year.
Since the District Attorneys office
took over the criminal investigation
of the case after allegations of misconduct first arose in October, four other
victims were discovered.
Some of these allegations go back
years. You have to question why now?
Rains said.
Rains suspects that the DA investigation of Winchester was so thorough,
however, that no other victims are
likely to come forward.
No stone was left unturned, he said
about the investigation.
Winchester faces 22 felonies including rape, kidnapping, sexual battery,
criminal threats and forcible sex
offenses, according to San Mateo
County District Attorney Steve
Wagstaffe.
Wagstaffe told the Daily Journal
Thursday that Winchesters case is the
worst active-duty police misconduct he
has ever seen.
One of the victims filed a police
report in 2013 claiming Winchester
sexually assaulted her on a campus of
the Los Rios Community College
District, which serves the Sacramento
area.
Charges were never filed, however,
and the claim against Winchester did

not surface before he was hired to be a


patrol officer in San Mateo in January
2015.
The District Attorneys investigation discovered two other local victims who claim Winchester sexually
assaulted them in separate incidents in
September 2015.
Winchester is accused of sexually
battery of a woman at the Hillsdale
Shopping Center on Sept. 15. A week
later, Winchester allegedly attempted
to rape a woman at a San Mateo motel,
according to prosecutors.
Winchester was an evening patrol
officer in San Mateo and was only
employed for 10 months before being
put on leave.
He resigned from the San Mateo
Police Department in February.
The 2013 incidents in Sacramento
involve a woman who claims
Winchester raped her on campus in
July and a 17-year-old woman who
claims Winchester assaulted her in a
campus parking lot in August.
District Attorneys investigators
found one of the Sacramento victims
by searching Facebook and social
media, Wagstaffe said.
Winchester was employed briefly by
the Sacramento Police Department
before joining the Los Rios
Community College District police
force in 2009. The district is comprised of four campuses including
American River College, Cosumnes
River College, Folsom Lake College
and Sacramento City College.
He is due back in court Aug. 2 for
arraignment and remains in custody on
$3.1 million bail.

Agents from the Bureau of Alcohol,


Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives
contributed to the investigation, as
the loss of the facility amounted to
more than $1 million. The building
was insured, and city officials are
working with agents to discuss cost
recovery.
Law enforcement officials are thankful to have apprehended the suspects
believed to be responsible for the fire
which gutted a central hub of the
Millbrae community, said Zuno.
We are relieved because the community center was a significant landmark
for the city of Millbrae, he said. This
fire affected a lot of residents, as well
as law enforcement that participated in
the programs in that building.
Zuno said law enforcement officials
wanted to dispel any notion circulating through the community that the
recreation center fire was the work of
people believed to have started other
fires in Millbrae.
Millbrae Mayor Anne Oliva
expressed a similar sentiment.
We are relieved we dont have serial
arsonists in our community, she said.
Looking forward, Oliva said the
focus of city officials has become find-

ing a home for the variety of programs


formerly housed at the center which
have been displaced by the fire.
The events for students which were
held at the community center have
been moved to Taylor Middle School
and last weekends Relay For Life
event was relocated at the last minutes
to Spring Valley Elementary School.
Now officials are working overtime
with community partners to find space
for many of the other programs, said
City Manager Marcia Raines.
There are ongoing day to day needs
and we are matching that up with volunteers for the space that we have
received, she said.
A fund has been set up through the
Millbrae Community Foundation
which will pay toward making sure all
local programs find a home, said
Oliva. A community meeting is scheduled Monday, Aug. 8, to further discuss
next steps for recovering from the loss
of the center.
But in the wake of the fire, and the
subsequent arrest, Oliva said she is certain the Millbrae community will
rebound.
We are going to get through this,
she said.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) Gauge what others
do before you decide to make a move. Look for a
unique way to make your domestic situation more
accommodating. Dont let emotions stand in the way
of progress.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) Adventure may
tempt you but caution should take precedence. Too
little planning and not enough attention paid to detail
will result in regret. Stick to what you know and the
people you trust.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Youll have to count
on yourself when it comes to legal, nancial or health
concerns. A positive change at home will do wonders
for your attitude.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) You should put


together a proposal about the possibility of turning
a hobby into something marketable. There is money
to be made if you are willing to make a change.
Partnerships look promising.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) Older individuals are
likely to pose a problem. Stick close to home, where
you can make the most out of your time. An unusual
encounter is heading your way.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) Discipline and hard
work will lead to a better position. Your tenacity will
grab the attention of someone willing to take a chance
on you. Romance will lead to a stronger commitment.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Dont get into an
argument. The downside will be too great, and

whatever gain you do make will be too small. Aim


for peace through compromise and hammering out
viable solutions.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) A little charm mixed
in with imaginative suggestions will turn heads. A
partnership will gain greater stability through carefree
banter. Show how much you care.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) Take the time to
appreciate whats going on around you. Dont feel the
need to jump because someone else is quick to act or
is being unpredictable.

German refugee policy


comes under fire after
a week of bloodshed
By Kirseten Grieshaber and Vanessa Gera
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BERLIN Four attacks in a week three of them carried


out by asylum seekers have left Germany on edge and
Chancellor Angela Merkels policies of
welcoming refugees under renewed criticism.
Anxiety over Germanys ability to
cope with last years flood of more than
1 million registered asylum seekers first
surged following a series of sexual
assaults and robberies in Cologne during New Year celebrations.
But in the last seven days, the vioAngela Merkel
lence has become even more deadly.
The unprecedented bloodshed began July 18, when a 17year-old from Afghanistan wielding an ax attacked people
on a train near Wuerzburg, wounding five people before he
was shot to death by police. The Islamic State group
claimed responsibility.
On Sunday, a 21-year-old Syrian used a machete to kill a
45-year-old Polish woman in the southern city of
Reutlingen. Authorities said assailant and victim knew
each other from working in the same restaurant, and the
incident was not related to terrorism.
Also Sunday, a 27-year-old Syrian who was denied asylum detonated a backpack of explosives and shrapnel at the
entrance to an outdoor music festival in Ansbach, killing
himself and wounding 15 people. The Islamic State group
claimed responsibility, and German security officials said a
video on the attackers phone shows him pledging allegiance to the extremists.
The deadliest attack came Friday night in Munich. The
German-born, 18-year-old son of Iranian asylum seekers
went on a shooting spree and killed nine people. The youth
had obsessively researched mass shootings, and authorities said the attack does not appear to be linked to Islamic
extremists.
The violence followed an attack in the French Riviera by
a Tunisian truck driver who plowed his vehicle into a
Bastille Day crowd, killing 84 people in Nice.
Experts say the attacks are likely to inflame anti-foreigner sentiment in Germany, creating a challenge for
Merkels government.
Merkel could now face increased calls for tighter border
security and greater vetting of arrivals, even though the
flow of migrants and asylum seekers has slowed drastically, said Florian Otto, an analyst with the risk consultants
Verisk Maplecrof. The influx diminished after the European
Union and Turkey agreed on a deal aimed at stopping people from reaching the continent by sea.
Although its too soon to say whether these attacks
would threaten Merkels chances of staying in power after
federal elections next year, she will face more pressure and
scrutiny for her immigration policies, Otto said.

Police officers and rescue workers are seen in a facility for the disabled in Sagamihara, Kanagawa prefecture, Japan.

At least 19 killed and dozens


injured in knifing near Tokyo
By Mari Yamaguchi
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAGAMIHARA, Japan At least


19 people were killed and about 20
wounded in a knife attack Tuesday at a
facility for the handicapped in a city
just outside Tokyo in the worst mass
killing in generations in Japan.
Police said they responded to a call
at about 2:30 a.m. from an employee
saying something horrible was happening at the facility in the city of
Sagamihara, 50 kilometers (30 miles)
west of Tokyo.
A man turned himself in at a police

station about two hours later, police


in Sagamihara said. He left the knife
in his car when he entered the station.
He has been arrested on suspicion of
attempted murder and trespassing.
Police said there were several casualties but did not provide any numbers.
The Sagamihara City fire department says that 19 people were confirmed dead in the attack. The fire
department said doctors at the scene
confirmed the deaths.
A woman who lives across from the
facility told Japanese broadcaster
NHK that she saw police cars enter the
facility around 3:30 a.m.

I was told by a policeman to stay


inside my house, as it could be dangerous, she said. Then ambulances
began arriving, and blood-covered
people were taken away.
NHK reported the suspect, 26, is a
former employee at the Tsukui
Yamayuri-en facility. Another broadcaster, NTV, said he broke into the
facility by smashing a window with a
hammer, and that he was upset because
he had been fired, but that could not be
independently confirmed.
Television footage showed a number
of ambulances parked outside the
facility, with medical and other rescue
workers running in and out.

Brazil police arrest last suspect in Olympics terror case


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

RIO DE JANEIRO Police arrested


the last suspect sought in the case of a
group of Islamic State sympathizers
who allegedly discussed attacking the
Olympics in Rio de Janeiro.
The Federal Police said in a statement late Sunday that the man was
caught in the city of Comodoro, in the
central west region of Brazil.
Police said he was taken to a federal
prison but didnt reveal his name, citing security reasons.

The anti-terror probe was announced


by authorities on Thursday when 10
Brazilians were arrested in different
states of Brazil. Another man turned
himself in on Friday.
Justice Minister Alexandre de
Moraes said some of the men had
pledged allegiance to the IS without
having any personal contact with
members of the terrorism group. The
suspects also didnt know each other
and only communicated via WhatsApp
and Telegram.
Moraes said the group was amateur

and ill-prepared. The closest it got to


planning an attack was an alleged
attempt via email to buy an AK-47
assault rifle in a store in Paraguay.
The suspects hadnt traveled to the
groups stronghold in Syria or Iraq or
received
any
training.
Its unclear whether they practiced any
religion.
Federal judge Marcos Josegrei da
Silva, who oversees the case, told O
Globo newspaper over the weekend
that there could be more people
involved with the group.
