Burlingame officials oppose rent control initiative


Citys ballot argument identifies concerns; advocates claim policy is sound
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

City officials oppose Measure


R, the ballot initiative attempting
to establish rent control in
Burlingame, due to concerns the
proposed policy is too far-reaching and rife with potential legislative pitfalls, according to the ballot argument.
The City Council released an
argument against the ballot initia-

flaws with the

Measure T, the
policy

variety of tenant protections. Alternatively,

advocates claim the initiative is


necessary to stabilize the
Burlingame housing market by
offering residents safeguards
against unjust rent hikes and tenant evictions.
The citys position, authored by
Councilman Michael Brownrigg,
was released weeks after the council authorized floating the rent
control initiative to voters on the

Get fired up for football


I
t wasnt too long ago that the Central
Coast Section mandated no football
games were to played in the month of
August. But with a revamped regular season
and playoff schedule implemented this season, not only is the season kicking off in
August its here this Friday.
There will be changes, as well, in the
annual Daily Journal football previews.
Instead of the usual Two-A-Days format
which featured two teams a day for two
weeks, this year we decided to break down
the previews by league and division. The
Peninsula Athletic Leagues Bay Division
is up first beginning today, followed by
the Ocean Division Wednesday and the
Lake Division Thursday. Well wrap up the
week with Serra and College of San Mateo
Friday, just in time
for Fridays kickoffs.
By waiting as
long as possible, we
believe the teams
will have a better
grasp on what kind
of players and season they will have
in 2016.
The PAL races the
last few years have
been exciting as each division title has
been decided in the last few weeks of the
regular season. Expect more of the same
this season. The Bay should be as good as
its been in several years, which is saying
a lot. Terra Nova and Aragon appear to
have reloaded, while Sacred Heart Prep and
Burlingame have some holes to fill.
Menlo-Atherton is generally regarded as
the team to beat this season, while
Hillsdale is out to prove it belongs with
the PALs heavyweights.
M-A, conceivably, could go 5-5 during
the regular season and still be a favorite to
win a CCS crown. The Bears have the most
brutal schedule of any PAL school and you
would be hard pressed to find any team with
a tougher non-league slate. The Bears open
the season with Bellarmine which won

League, before winning the CCS Division I

California court decision keeps

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO In a victory for teacher unions, a


divided California Supreme Court decided Monday to let the
states teacher tenure law stand.
The high court decided 4-3 not to review a lower court ruling that upheld tenure and other job protections for teachers. That ruling came in a lawsuit by a group of students who
claimed that incompetent teachers were almost impossible
to fire because of tenure laws and that schools in poor
neighborhoods were dumping grounds for bad teachers.
The case was closely watched around the country and

Cheers! First drink in 81
years sold in formerly dry town
BRIDGEWATER, Conn. A simple
plastic cup of beer has made history
by being the first alcoholic drink sold
in a small Connecticut town in 81
years.
The affluent bedroom community of
Bridgewater had been the last dry town
in the state until residents approved
alcohol sales in 2014.
The News-Times reports that the first
booze sold in town since 1935 was a
cup of beer purchased Friday at the
Bridgewater Country Fair.
Bridgewater native and volunteer
firefighter Jim Lillis took the first sip
before passing the cup to other firefighters and fair volunteers who gathered for the ceremonial sale.
Voters legalized alcohol sales two
years ago as developers proposed
restaurants in the western Connecticut
town of 1,700 residents on the condition that they could sell booze. No
restaurants have opened yet.

Ohio zoo gorilla shot and killed after a


3-year-old boy got into his enclosure
has taken on life after death.
The late 17-year-old great ape has
shown up in tongue-in-cheek petitions
to rename the hometown Cincinnati
Bengals, to add his face to Mount
Rushmore or the Lincoln Memorial,
and to put him on the dollar bill. He
has grown the angel wings and halo of
a deity in social media memorials.
Hes even been mock-nominated for
president.
The Harambe phenomenon is fed by
genuine sadness over his death, continued controversy over the circumstances that led to it, and the penchant
of many social media users for satire
which sometimes turns offensive.
There is a word we like to use in our
discipline, in pop culture studies, and
that is polysemic: has many meanings, said Jeremy Wallach, a professor of popular culture at Bowling
Green State University in Ohio.
Harambe definitely is that, a sign that
possesses many different interpretations.
Harambe remembrances began
soberly, with a legitimate Justice for
Harambe petition seeking to hold the
boys mother responsible in his May
28 death. The county prosecutor ruled
there was no cause for charges. The zoo
reopened its gorilla exhibit with a
higher, reinforced barrier and urged
support for gorilla conservation
efforts.

Affordable housing project takes shape


S.S.F. officials to address proposed downtown workforce development
By Austin Walsh

Comment on
or share this story at
www.smdailyjournal.com

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

South San Francisco officials are slated


to further define the vision of a proposed
downtown workforce housing project during an upcoming discussion expected to
address the size and cost of the project.
The South San Francisco City Council
will discuss during a meeting Wednesday,
Aug. 24, the proposal to collaborate with
MidPen Housing on an affordable housing
project at the corner of Maple and Miller
avenues, just steps from the commercial
district.
As the project moves forward, guidance
is needed from officials regarding the
range of affordability and layout of the 36
proposed units to be built on the small
piece of city property, according to a city
report.
The councils preference regarding such
details will ultimately have bearing on the
outside funding sources the city can seek
to help pay for the construction of the
project aiming to redevelop .3 acres of
property currently used as a parking lot,
according to the report.
There was initial hope the project would
reserve space for residents earning a wide
range of the areas median income, but the
report said a narrowed definition of who
may be eligible to live in the project
would make it more likely to receive outside funding.
The project would be most financially
feasible if it were built to serve those earning either 30 percent or 60 percent of the
annual median income, according to the
report, as developers would be eligible to
apply for the widest variety of external
financing sources and require the smallest
contribution of city funds. The 30 percent
to 60 percent level ranges from $25,830

income for one person up to $73, 800


income for a family of four.
Under such a design, the city could contribute up to $2.9 million in funds designated to support the construction of
affordable units and also apply for state,
federal and county tax credits to pay
toward the building cost, according to the
report.
Officials had wished some of the units
would be set aside for those earning a moderate income, as such a project would best
suit the needs of the largest amount of
South San Francisco residents.
But there are few outside funding sources
available to pay toward construction of
units serving those earning moderate
incomes, according to the report, making
it more difficult to finance.
Also affecting the cost of the project is
the size of the units, according to the
report, as more rooms typically require
more parking, making the project more
expensive and also less efficient for the
limited space available on the small lot.
Officials should focus on development
of studio and one-bedroom apartments,
according to the report, as it would reduce
the amount of required parking, maximize
the amount of units in the project, shrink
the building height and better fit the space
constraints of the parcel, among other
benefits.
A building with studio and one bedroom
units will maximize the number of units,
and therefore households served, while
minimizing the building height to fit in
with the surrounding neighborhood,

according to the report. Smaller units


also require fewer parking stalls, which
can be provided without requiring expensive subterranean parking or a taller building.
Smaller units would also better serve
young workers who would likely attempt
to save money to buy a home while benefiting from the reduced rents, according to
the report.
With the proposed unit mix, the project
would be well-suited to workers in the earlier stages of their career, allowing them
to save money while living in these units
and be in a better position to purchase a
home of their own in the future, according
to the report. Furthermore, the project
would complement other housing projects
in the downtown, which focus on larger,
one to three bedroom units.
Ultimately, feedback provided by the
council at the upcoming meeting will
shape the project as the proposal moves
forward, according to the report.
Using the councils input and direction,
staff will work closely with MidPen to further refine the project, analyze financial
feasibility, and return to the council with a
proposed agreement, according to the
report.

meets 6 p.m. Wednesday, Aug. 24, in the

California lawmakers
revive farmworker overtime bill
SACRAMENTO Californias state Senate on Monday
revived a bill that would make the state the first in the
United States to give farmworkers the same overtime pay as
people who work in other industries, a last-ditch effort to
reverse a nearly 80-year-old practice of exempting field
hands from wage rules.
The provision passed with only Democratic support after
a debate over whether it would help or hurt an estimated
829,000 people who work on California farms harvesting
fruit and vegetables, tending dairy cows and performing a
wide variety of other agricultural tasks.
Hourly workers in California are generally entitled to pay
at one-and-a-half times the hourly rate after they have
worked eight hours in a day or 40 hours in a week. But for
agricultural workers, the threshold required to get overtime
pay is 10 hours a day or 60 hours a week.
Its time that we do right by these men and women who
work these fields every single day to nourish our bodies,
said Senate President Pro Tem Kevin de Leon, D-Los
Angeles.

California firefighters stretched


thin as blazes sweep across state
By Don Thompson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SACRAMENTO Californias state


fire department is stretched thin just as
the bone-dry state enters the peak of its
wildfire season, with vacancy rates
exceeding 15 percent for some firefighters and supervisors. The vacancy
rate is more than 10 percent for some
fire engine drivers, according to statistics provided to the Associated Press.
A five-year drought and changing
weather patterns have transformed what
once was a largely summertime job into
an intense year-round firefight, said
California Department of Forestry and
Fire Protection spokeswoman Janet
Upton.
Its not the old days where we were a
seasonal department with a season that
lasted a few months, she said. Its an
increasingly challenging job, no
thanks to Mother Nature and climate
change.

The shortage means that the state


firefighting department is forced during
weather conditions fanning large
blazes to keep firefighters on duty for
long hours as they do backbreaking,
dangerous work trying to put out massive wildfires that have become bigger
and more frequent in recent years.
Nearly 25 percent of departing
employees over the last two years have
told officials they quit for better-paying
jobs with other firefighting agencies,
according to the statistics provided to
the AP by CalFire.
The union that represents the state
firefighters who fight fires outside
urban and suburban areas blamed low
pay, as more than 100 members, families and representatives of other unions
protested in Sacramento on Monday.
Union and department officials said
California has enough state firefighters to keep the public safe at the
expense of firefighting men and
women who frequently work for weeks

without days off without seeing their


families.
Were short-staffed, were stretched
thin, were in these epidemic fire conditions, said Patrick Walker, 40, a
CalFire captain in San Diego County.
He worked 47 straight days fighting
one large fire last year and said he
worked three weeks with no break this
year, most of it fighting a Monterey
County fire that has burned more than
134 square miles.
With the pay inequities, the shifts
we work and the turnover, were running
less and less people, Walker said.
There may be a concern where the public is at risk due to the long hours.
Union members are seeking a midcontract pay raise that would give compensation above the $60,000 a typical
firefighter is paid each year in salary
and overtime. Fire captains typically
make more than $85,000 and the
salaries of battalion chiefs exceed
$98,000.

California lawmakers move


to allow photos of marked ballots
SACRAMENTO California lawmakers have passed a
bill to repeal a 125-year-old law barring voters from showing people their marked ballots, though it would take effect
after the November election.
AB1494 would allow California voters to waive their
right to a secret ballot and share polling-booth selfies or
other photos of their ballots.
The Assembly voted 57-11 Monday to send the proposal
to Democratic Gov. Jerry Brown. It would take effect Jan. 1.
Legislative analysts say state law has prohibited revealing ballots since 1891. The bills author, Democratic
Assemblyman Marc Levine of San Rafael, says the law is
rarely enforced.
Federal courts in New Hampshire and Indiana last year
threw out laws in those states that prohibited photos of
marked ballots, saying they violated free speech rights.

California high court upholds


ban on dredges to extract gold
SAN FRANCISCO Californias ban on the use of suction dredges to extract gold from rivers is legal and not
overridden by a 19th century federal law that allows mining
on federal land, the California Supreme Court ruled Monday.
The courts unanimous decision was a victory for environmentalists and a blow to miners, who argued that the ban
essentially stopped gold mining because doing it by hand
is labor intensive and makes the enterprise unprofitable.
Environmentalists say suction dredge mining risks
killing fish and stirring up toxic mercury.

Redwood City man dies abalone diving
The Sonoma County Coroners Office has identified a
man who died while abalone diving in Jenner on Sunday
afternoon as Dean Seki, 66, of Redwood City.
Witnesses said Seki was swimming around 1:30 p.m. at
Gerstle Cove in Salt Point State Park and was surprised by
an abnormally large wave, sheriffs Sgt. Spencer Crum said.
The exact cause of Sekis death had not been determined.
Lifeguards had pulled him from the water and he was pronounced dead on the beach. A Sonoma County sheriffs helicopter assisted Cal Fire and state park personnel in the

Suspect arrested after robbing victim with knife


A San Francisco man was arrested Saturday on suspicion
of robbery, assault with a deadly weapon and false imprisonment because allegedly he used a knife to rob another
person and hold him against his will, police said.
Officers responded at 12:27 a.m. to the 900 block of El
Camino Real on a report of a robbery. Police allege that
Renette Gasio, 26, threatened another person with a knife
in order to rob him of money after that person agreed to
meet a prostitute at a hotel.
Gasio was booked into the San Mateo County Jail. The
victim was not injured, according to police.

Back in Washington, Obamas


vacation glow may fade quickly
By Darlene Superville
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON After two weeks of


sunshine and 10 rounds of golf,
President Barack Obama is preparing
for the busy fall awaiting him.
The glow from his vacation on the
Massachusetts island of Marthas
Vineyard may fade sooner than expected, though. Obama gets back on the
road Tuesday to comfort residents of
Baton Rouge, Louisiana, a city hardhit in recent weeks by natural and manmade tragedies.
Heavy flooding this month killed at
least 13 people and displaced thousands more after murky water engulfed
their homes.
In July, the fatal police shooting of
a black man outside of a convenience
store sparked protests and mass
arrests. Police say the death of 37year-old Alton Sterling apparently led
a gunman to train his weapon on law
enforcement officers, killing three.
Obama was criticized for not visiting Baton Rouge after Sterlings death
or the killings of two Baton Rouge
police officers and a sheriffs deputy.
He went instead to Dallas to eulogize

five police officers who were killed by


a gunman who similarly targeted law
enforcement.
But the flooding is drawing Obama
in, although the visit will come later
than some would have liked. Some
Louisianans and others, including The
Advocate newspaper in Baton Rouge,
called on Obama to break from vacation to console flood victims.
Gov. John Bel Edwards has defended
Obamas decision to not visit before
this week, saying an earlier trip by the
president would have interfered with
the response effort.
While Obama resisted the public
pressure, Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump filled the void. He
visited the flood-ravaged area Friday
with his running mate, Indiana Gov.
Mike Pence, and briefly helped unload
a supply truck.
With Congress still on a seven-week
break, Obama and aides will likely
spend time this week trying to figure
out what they want from lawmakers
before they shift focus on campaigning for re-election.
Congress returns after Labor Day,
and the House and Senate will have just
a month to pass a catch-all spending
bill by the end of the federal budget

year on Sept. 30 to keep the government operating. Lawmakers plan to


leave Washington in October and
return after the Nov. 8 elections.
The White House will continue to
press for money to help keep the mosquito-borne Zika virus from spreading
and develop a vaccine. The issue took
on a new sense of urgency after Florida
last week identified the popular Miami
tourist haven of South Beach as the
second site of Zika transmission on
the U. S. mainland. A section of
Miamis Wynwood arts district was the
first.
In turn, incensed lawmakers have
promised to keep the heat on the
administration by holding hearings on
the $400 million it delivered to Iran in
January. Republicans say the money
was ransom to win freedom for four
Americans held in Iran. Obama denied
that, saying earlier this month that
we do not pay ransom. We didnt here.
And we ... wont in the future.
But administration officials also
said it made little sense not to retain
maximum leverage, as
State
Department spokesman John Kirby
put it last week, for the money long
owed to Iran, to ensure the U.S. citizens release.

As Clinton asks for


cash, campaign pitch
remains a mystery
By Lisa Lerer
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

PROVINCETOWN, Mass. It was a very


busy, very lucrative weekend for Hillary
Clinton in the summer playground of the
East Coasts moneyed elite.
She brunched with wealthy backers at a
seaside estate in Nantucket, snacking on
shrimp dumplings and crabcakes. A few
hours later, she and her husband dined with
an intimate party of thirty at a secluded
Marthas Vineyard estate. And on Sunday
afternoon, she joined the singer Cher at a
LGBT summer celebration on the far
reaches of Cape Cod.
By Sunday evening, Clinton had spoken
to more than 2,200 campaign donors. But
what she told the crowds remains a mystery.
Clinton has refused to open her fundraisers to journalists, reversing nearly a decade
of greater transparency in presidential campaigns and leaving the public guessing at

what shes saying to some of her most powerful supporters.


Its an approach that differs from the
Democratic president she hopes to succeed.
Since his 2008 campaign, President Barack
Obama has allowed reporters traveling with
him into the backyards and homes of
wealthy donors to witness some of his
remarks.
While reporters are escorted out of
Obamas events before the start of the juicier Q&A, the presidents approach offers at
least a limited measure of accountability
that some fear may disappear when Clinton
or Republican nominee Donald Trump
moves into the White House.
Unfortunately these things have a tendency to ratchet down, said Larry Noble,
the general counsel of the nonprofit
Campaign Legal Center. As the bar gets
lower, its hard to raise it again.
Clintons campaign does release limited
details about her events, naming the hosts,

Republicans to question firms that


ran Hillary Clintons private server
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Republicans stepped up


their attacks Monday on former Secretary of
State Hillary Clintons use of a private
email server and pointed to newly released
messages to allege that foreign donors to
the Democratic presidential nominees family charity got preferential treatment from
her department.
Congressional Republicans issued subpoenas to three technology companies that
either made or serviced the server located in
the basement of Clintons New York home.
The subpoenas were issued Monday by
House Science, Space and Technology
Chairman Lamar Smith of Texas with the
support of Senate Homeland Security

Chairman Ron Johnson of Wisconsin.


In a joint statement, Smith and Johnson
said the move was necessary after the three
companies Platte River Networks, Datto
Inc. and SECNAP Network Security Corp.
declined to voluntarily answer questions to
determine whether Clintons private server
met government standards for record-keeping and security.
The subpoenas were among several developments Monday that showed a new GOP
emphasis on Clintons emails after the FBI
recently closed its yearlong probe into
whether she and her aides mishandled sensitive government information that flowed
through her server. The FBI recommended
against criminal charges.

Judge in Texas temporarily


blocks Obamas transgender rules
AUSTIN, Texas A federal judge in Texas
has blocked the Obama administrations
order that requires public schools to let
transgender students use the bathrooms and
locker rooms consistent with their chosen
gender identity.
In a temporary injunction signed Sunday,
U.S. District Judge Reed OConnor ruled
that the federal education law known as Title
IX is not ambiguous about sex being
defined as the biological and anatomical
differences between male and female stu-

several news conferences.


Clinton refuses to release the transcripts
of dozens of closed-door speeches she delivered to companies and business associations
after leaving the State Department in 2013,
despite significant bipartisan criticism.
And since announcing her presidential bid
in April 2015, Clinton has held around 300
fundraising events. Only around five have
been open to any news coverage.
It does feed this rap about being secretive
and being suspicious, said GOP strategist
Whit Ayers.

The judge said the order would apply

such directives are issued.

balancing the protection of students rights
and that of personal privacy ... while ensuring that no student is unnecessarily marginalized while attending school, he wrote.

Trump says hes not flip-flopping on immigration


By Erica Werner
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Republican Donald


Trump insists that hes not flip-flopping
when it comes to his proposal to deport
the estimated 11 million people living in
the United States illegally even though
his new campaign manager now says his
stance is to be determined.
Trump said in an interview with Fox &
Friends on Monday that hes not flipflopping, but wants to come up with a
really fair, but firm solution.
Trump had previously proposed using a
deportation force to remove the 11 million people living in the United States
illegally a proposal that excited many
of his core supporters, but alienated
Hispanic voters who could be pivotal in
key states. Republican leaders fear that
Trump cant win and could drag down
GOP congressional candidates if he
doesnt increase his support beyond his
white, male base.
Trump met Saturday with Hispanic supporters, representatives of a community
that has been wary of the billionaire businessmans deportation proposals and his
plans to build a giant wall on the U.S.Mexico border. Questioned on whether

Trump still intends to deploy the deportation force, campaign manager Kellyanne
Conway said Sunday: To be determined.
Trumps comments come as Republican
officials insist the GOP nominee is finally
hitting his stride and will catch up with
Democrat Hillary Clinton by early
September, following a major shake-up to

his campaign. Polls now mostly show


Trump lagging Clinton by 5 percentage
points or more nationally.
Donald Trump has been disciplined and
mature. And I think hes going to get this
thing back on track, Reince Priebus, the
Republican National Committee chairman, said Sunday.

Conway echoed Priebus optimism, contending that the candidate just had the best
week of his campaign, mostly because
hes able to be himself, the authentic
Donald Trump.
Conway was named to her post last week
in a shake-up in which the campaign
chairman, Paul Manafort, resigned and
conservative media firebrand Stephen
Bannon, who led Breitbart News, took
over as campaign chief executive.
A new style was immediately evident as
Trump, in a first, offered regrets for any
remarks that had caused offense, stuck
with his teleprompter at a series of events,
and paid a visit to flood-ravaged
Louisiana. Trump also announced his first
ad buys of the campaign, more evidence of
an acceptance of the traditional campaign
elements most experts believe he will
need in order to have a shot at winning. He
made a direct appeal to African-American
voters, insisting he wants the Republican
Party to become their political home.
Clintons campaign manager, Robby
Mook, disputed claims of a turnaround in
Trumps candidacy. Were not seeing a
pivot. Donald Trump himself said this was
not a pivot. He wants to double down on
letting Donald Trump be Donald Trump,
Mook said.

Israel takes steps toward new settlement in volatile city


By Josef Federman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

JERUSALEM Israeli authorities on


Monday confirmed that they have begun
the process of expanding an Israeli settlement in Hebron, a West Bank city that has
been the focus of nearly a year of violence.

The Palestinians swiftly condemned the


move, saying they would seek international pressure to halt the plan from going forward.
The Palestinians, along with the international community, oppose all settlement
construction in the West Bank and east
Jerusalem, territories they seek for a future
independent state. Israel captured both areas

in the 1967 Mideast war.


Construction in Hebron, the West Banks
largest city, is especially contentious.
About 1,000 Jewish settlers live in heavily
fortified enclaves in the city, surrounded by
some 200,000 Palestinians. The city is
holy to both Jews and Muslims. There is
frequent friction between the sides, and the
city has been a flashpoint of violence during nearly a year of fighting.
Since last September, Palestinians have

killed 34 Israelis in shootings, stabbings


and vehicular attacks. At least 206
Palestinians have died by Israeli fire in the
same period. Israel says most of the dead
were attackers, though the Palestinians
have challenged many of the Israeli
accounts.
The site in question is next to Beit
Romano, one of the settler enclaves inside
Hebron. Most recently, it has been used by
the Israeli military.

Developers worsen drought
Editor,
Someone please explain to me what
is wrong with the thinking of
California and the Bay Area cities. I
just drove by the San Luis Reservoir
and it is now 10 percent full; not
empty but 10 percent full. As I drive
down Interstate 5 to the south, all the
farmers are crying about no water, but
what do I see but thousand of new trees
being planted. Isnt anyone watching?
Here in the Bay Area, the signs saying severe drought are up again, and
the weather people and scientists are
saying we are in for another dry year,
but the cities keep adding people to
the water trough. Someone explain to
me why I have to cut down on my
water so developers can come into the
area and build whatever they want. Im
a simple man, but even I can add up
one and one. When is it going to
stop?

Facts and relevance


Editor,
This is a response to Mr. Pijmas
response about Mr. Okamotos letter
about who, and why, he intends to
vote for, or not vote for (Japanese
ancestry in modern-day politics in
the Aug. 17 edition of the Daily
Journal).
Mr. Pijma seemed to me, in his
response to Mr. Okamoto, to have a
problem with facts and relevance.
What party was responsible for the
internment is not the issue, and Mr.
Okamoto did not bring that up. His
point is that the generalization, for
whatever reason, of an entire ethnic
group is wrong; its that simple.
The second part of his argument is
that there are those, Trump in particular, advocating that very thing again,
apparently unaware that the country
now realizes that doing it the rst time
was a mistake, and doing it again will
be an even bigger mistake because we
now have a precedent. Mr. Pijmas reference to his being put behind barbed
wire is not relevant, we were at war
with Japan, not Japanese-Americans.
Republicans should be criticizing
Trumps statements about Muslims,
not nding a way to defend him.

than making strenuous efforts to

government?
Instead, out of the blue, City
Manager Greg Scoles recommends
perpetuating the restrictive protocols that were discussed by the 2012
council but not approved.
The City Council should instead
increase the citys transparency by
including in the citysprotocol the
following: Preparation ofcomplete

of highly abbreviated action minutes, timelyonline postingof draft

The nation is so split that we are
preparing to elevate one of the two

like they say they do, they should
both step aside and allow the constituency a welcomed breath of fresh
air.

Obama deserves highest honor


Editor,
Thanks to President Obama, today,
Americans are enjoying life and have
money in their pockets and in their
investment portfolios. Like the
mythological phoenix, our economy
has risen from the ashes of the 2009
Great Recession, despite the unrelenting drive of the Republican party,
fueled by the anger of its tea party
members, to ensure his failure.
From day one in 2009, when
President Obama took ofce, conservative political operatives began
hatching their plot to bring him
down. It was their plan not only to
cause his entire political agenda to
fail, but also to destroy him personally.
From the very beginning of the
Obama administration, Senate
Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and
the then House minority leader John
Boehner made it clear they had a different agenda: they would automatically
oppose anything President Obama put
forward. McConnell famously vowed
to make Obama a one-term president.
The personal attacks on President
Obama have been relentless and uglier
than those against other presidents in
the history of America.
If President Obama was a foot soldier, and had he been subjected to the
equivalent withering, sustained bombardment over a long period from the
enemy and yet succeeded in saving his
company from annihilation, he would
have received the highest possible
award, the Congressional Medal of
Honor.

Biden. Both angry sides would love


to have that alternative.

The politics
of November
M
y rst legislative assignment on Capitol Hill
came within months after I was hired to the
House Financial Services Committees
Subcommittee on Housing and Insurance. The subcommittee
was tasked with drafting a bill that would effectively reduce
the homeless population among at-risk youth: H.R. 32
The Homeless Children and Youth Act.
After several months of working tirelessly on nights and
weekends, we managed to draft and garner bipartisan support
for the bill before it was brought before the committee for a
vote. Awaiting the vote with a hopeful grin, I proudly stood
behind the members of Congress with talking points in
hand as they debated the ne points of the bill. To my surprise, rather than collaboratively working to ne-tune the
bill, many of the members focused on political differences
rather than nding consensus on policy for the greater
good.
Discouraged by the bills
defeat, I solemnly returned to my
desk, trashed my talking points
and loosened the stiff knot on my
suit tie. Puzzled that neither of
my colleagues appeared surprised
by the bills fate, I approached
one of them and questioned why
the bill failed to pass. She reluctantly laughed, nodding her head.
Bipartisan support is a rare
thing in a presidential election
year, she said. The closer the
election, the more difcult it is to Jonathan Madison
achieve real reform.
My colleagues sentiment was a difcult truth for me to
bear. The fact is that the closer an election, campaigning
and re-election become the focal point for members of
Congress. This often makes a congressional representatives need to appear right before their constituents more
important than actually advancing true reform. This is the
same logic that culminated in the congressional gridlock
that shut down the federal government in 2013, costing our
government nearly $19 billion. Here is why it matters.
Concurrent with this shift, the media and nation follow
suit in three ways. First, rather than focusing on collectively nding solutions to the nations challenges, a number of
politicians merely politicize crisis to their advantage in
efforts to secure re-election. Second, the media coverage
shifts from the nations most pressing issues to the political discourse and gimmicks of presidential candidates. Third,
and most important, the nations focus shifts from what is
right to the idea of who is right, thus preventing any real
policy solutions from being brought forth until after the
election.
With regard to the media, the closer we draw to November,
the more we witness an evident shift in coverage. Rather
than highlighting the nations most pressing issues, the
media chooses to cover divisive politics of the left and
right. Consider the fact that on Aug. 14, an unprecedented
rainstorm submerged much of southern Louisiana. The storm
displaced thousands of families from their homes and caused
the death of 11. According to the Red Cross, this was the
single worst U.S. disaster since Superstorm Sandy in 2012.
However, much of the nation remained unaware of this
travesty due to the dearth of media coverage. Rather, the
media chose to continue to highlight divisive political theatrics of the presidential election. As a result, the national
media has been widely criticized for its lack of coverage on
such a travesty.
Concurrent with the medias narrow focus on political discourse and competitive appetite, much of the nations focus
has shifted from the humane principle of what is right to
the illusory trap of who is right. This logic prevents the
possibility of any real policy solutions until after the election because many are more concerned with their preference
of candidate or ideology than for what is in the best interest
of the nation. Indeed, this is the most dangerous logic in
any system of governance because ideals about how to solve
the plight of our nation are rooted in ideology rather than
common sense. Believe it or not, we all fall victim to the
same logic, particularly in a presidential election year.
This election cycle, let us refuse to be blinded by political
theatrics. Let us reject the temptation to use a crisis as motivation to further an ideological cause. Let us urge our elected
ofcials to continue working to represent each of us as we
move closer to November, rather than using the next three
months of their term as nothing more than a re-election
platform. Together, let us look for real solutions and
embrace all ideas that can truly solve our nations greatest
challenges. Finally, if we are to be motivated behind a crisis, let us be independently motivated to rst look to what
is right, rather than who is right.

Uber expands Spanish-speaking service to New Mexico


By Russel Contreras
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. Uber


on Monday extended its option for
customers to request a Spanishspeaking driver to New Mexico
the nations most Hispanic state
by percentage of population.
The ride-hailing company said
the launch of uberESPAQOL would
help expand service and help
Spanish-speaking residents and
tourists move more freely in the
state.
This new feature is available to
customers
in
Santa
Fe,
Albuquerque, and Las Cruces who
use the Uber app on a smartphone.
The San Francisco-based company will only have a handful of
Spanish-speaking drivers in New

Mexico at first but will add more as


word gets out, Steve Thompson,
general manager for Uber in New
Mexico, said during a news conference at the National Hispanic
Cultural Center in Albuquerque.
We have hundreds of drivers in
New Mexico now so I dont think
there will be a problem,
Thompson said.
New Mexico has the highest percentage of Hispanic residents
48 percent of any state in the
nation.
New Mexico is the sixth state to
get the Spanish service after
California, Illinois, Arizona,
Texas and Nevada. Arizona is the
companys oldest uberESPAQOL
location, with service in six
cities, Thompson said.
Last week, lawmakers passed a

bill allowing services like Lyft


and Uber to operate legally in New
Mexico.
Rep. Monica Youngblood, RAlbuquerque, who successfully
pushed the bill, said she hoped the
launch of uberESPAQOL leads to
further expansion of the ride-hailing services in the state.
For example, Uber and Lyft offer
services to Rio Rancho, the states
third-largest city, but it is hard to
get service in New Mexicos thirdlargest city.
We need residents in Rio
Rancho to open their apps to let
Uber know it is necessary out
there, she said.
Thompson said Uber hopes to

Google rolling
out latest Android
system to Nexus phones
SAN FRANCISCO Google is
ready to start sending out the latest
version of its Android operating
system to a handful of devices.
The release announced Monday
means
many
Nexus-branded
devices should receive a free
upgrade to Android 7.0, nicknamed
Nougat, during the next few
weeks.
The first models in line include
the Nexus 6, Nexus 5X, Nexus 6P,

Other smartphones coming out
this fall will be sold with Nougat
already installed.
The new version of Android has
been in a testing phase since
March as Google polished the sys-

Oil prices fell sharply. U. S.
benchmark crude lost $1.47 to
close at $47.05 a barrel and Brent
crude, used to price oil internationally, declined $1.72 to close
at $49.16 a barrel. The drop in
energy prices dragged down energy stocks, which lost roughly 1
percent, more than the rest of the

Since the 2001 season, champions of the


Peninsula Athletic Leagues Bay Division
have come in waves. Aragon won ve of six
division titles from 2001 to 2006. MenloAtherton had a two-year run of excellence,
winning crowns in 06 and 07. Terra Nova
won three in a row from 2009 to 2011,
shared the 2012 crown with Sacred Heart
Prep and won it again outright in 2013.
There was a changing of the guard in 2014
with SHP winning its rst Bay Division
championship and last season saw a threeway tie for the title between Burlingame, MA and SHP.
Needless to say, winning the Bay
Division is tough task for any team.
In my objective opinion, there is not a
(public) school league in the section that is
deeper than ours [the Bay Division], said
Aragon coach Steve Sell, who will enter his
17th season as the Dons head man.
Its a competitive, tough league. I
wouldnt be surprised if any of the six teams
won it.
The PALs Bay Division is one of ve A
leagues in the Central Coast Section, meaning it plays against the best the section has
to offer when it comes playoff time.
As such, nearly every coach in the Bay
Division looks at the league schedule as the
perfect way to prepare for the postseason.
The Bay Division, the schedule is grueling, said Burlingame coach John
Philipopoulos. When you look at other
leagues, they are top heavy. In the Bay
Division, every week is a grind.
Said M-A coach Adhir Ravipati: Its very
rare you nd six-team leagues with ve playoff teams.
So what does it take to compete in one of
the toughest leagues in CCS? Its more than
just talent. Every coach interviewed for this
story said the real challenge is developing a
program, from top to bottom, that has continuity from freshman to senior year.
To compete in the Bay, you denitely
have to put your time in year round, said
Terra Nova coach Tim Adams. Its a grind.
Youre not going to do two weeks in the

The PALs Bay Division is one of the toughest public school leagues in the Central
Coast Section and winning the Bay title is no easy task. The Terra Nova defense, top, is
expected to be much improved; Isaiah Cozzolino, above left, and his Hillsdale teammates are
the PALs top division for the first time, while M-A Jordan Mims, above right, is one
of the PALs top college recruits for arguably the team to beat in the Bay Division.

Less than 24 hours after the close of the Rio


Olympics, Ryan Lochte took a major financial hit Monday for a drunken incident he initially tried to pass off as an armed robbery.
In quick succession, four sponsors
announced they were dumping the swimmer,
who has since apologized and conceded that
he embellished what happened during a nowinfamous stop at a Rio gas station.
Swimsuit company Speedo USA, clothing
giant Ralph Lauren and
skin-care firm SyneronCandela issued statements
less than three hours
apart, all with the same
message: Lochte is out.
Before the day was done,
Japanese mattress maker
airweave followed suit,
essentially wiping out
Ryan Lochte Lochtes income away
from the pool.
In addition, Speedo USA said $50,000 that
wouldve gone to the 12-time Olympic
medalist was being donated to Save The
Children to benefit needy youngsters in
Brazil.
While we have enjoyed a winning relationship with Ryan for over a decade and he
has been an important member of the Speedo
team, we cannot condone behavior that is
counter to the values this brand has long
stood for, the prominent swimsuit company
said. We appreciate his many achievements
and hope he moves forward and learns from
this experience.
Ralph Lauren, which provided the Polobranded attire worn by the U.S. team at the
opening and closing ceremonies, said it
would not be renewing the contract that provided Lochte with financial support leading
up to Rio. The statement from airweave said it
had a similar arrangement with the swimmer.
Both stressed they would continue their support of the U.S. Olympic and Paralympic
teams.
Syneron-Candela offers a line of skin-treatment products that deal with issues such as
wrinkle reduction.
We hold our employees to high standards,
and we expect the same of our business partners, the company said.

As fine Butler, Valencia following clubhouse fight

Butler and Danny Valencia on Monday after
they were involved in a clubhouse fight last
week that led to Butler being placed on the

There was an altercation in the clubhouse, were aware of it, both players have

Butler was seen by As medical staff over
the weekend but was not in the clubhouse
when Oakland began a three-game homestand with the Indians on Monday.
Valencia did not start but was available off
the bench.

2015 record: 1-4 PAL Bay, 5-6 overall
Key returners:Enzo Fuenzalida (sr.,
OL/DL); Tomislav Medan (sr., OL/DL);
James Kilcullen (sr., OL/DL); Ian Tapeueluelu (jr., OL/DL); Davion

Key newcomers: Simon Mapa (so., OL/DL); Liam Laughlin (so.,
OL/DL); Paul Lautaimi (so., RB/LB); Fafita Alusa (sr., LB/RB).
2016 opener: Fri. vs. Carlmont, 7 p.m.
Outlook: This could be the year the Dons again challenge for
one of the top spots in the Bay Division. If not this season, then
maybe next year, or the year after.
When we played Palma (in the CCS playoffs last season),I looked
up and there were more freshmen and sophomores on the
field than juniors and seniors, said Aragon coach Steve Sell.
So while the Dons may be young, they are experienced. Athletically, this may be one of the best editions of the Dons in
several seasons. With a stable of big, bruising backs and a new
quarterback in Gabe Campos, who gives Aragon a legitimate
dual threat under center, and an offensive line that returns four
starters, opposing teams may have a hard time keeping track
of where the Dons are attacking.
Aragons ability to move the ball has never been in question,
which cant be said of the defense the last few seasons. The
Dons allowed 27 points per game last season overall, and that
number jumped to 34 in Bay Division play.
With more experience on that side of the ball, Sell is hoping to
see that number drop this year.
Like all coaches before the first game, Sell is excited about his
teams prospects. A lot of times, its simply coach speak, but one
gets the feeling he really means it this season.
This is a great chance (to do something special), Sell said.If
were going to end up with only 38, 40 guys (on the roster),
theres going to be 38, 40 football players.

(sr.,TE/DE); Oscar Bashaw (sr., OL/LB); Arman Dizadji (sr., OL/DL);
Lucas Flygare (sr., OL/DL).
Key newcomers: Carlo Lopiccolo (jr., QB); Savaun Brown (jr.,
RB/DB); Gray Goodman (sr., WR/DB).
2016 opener: Fri. at Mt. Pleasant-San Jose, 7 p.m.
Outlook: On paper, the Panthers appear to be in rebuild
mode.
Correction.
Reload mode.
This is not a rebuilding year,said coach John Philipopoulos.
You do not rebuild in the Bay. You do that in other places.
Whatever term you use, the fact remains Philipopoulos has to
replace 10 offensive starters.While a larger number than usual,
it has never prevented the Panthers from fielding a competitive team year in and year out.
If you run a solid program and do all the right things, when
you do lose a lot of kids (to graduation), the program will carry
you through, Philipopoulos said.
So expect the Panthers, once again, to feature an undersized,
but tenacious and disciplined, offensive line to open holes
for the usual crop of Burlingame running backs.
Those running back are untested, however. Cole Friedlander
is expected to be a key contributor out of the backfield, but
he carried the ball only two times last season, while Savaun
Brown was on the JV squad a year ago.
We probably have six kids we feel pretty good playing running back for us, Philipopoulos said.
The Panthers will be on their third quarterback in three years
with junior Carlo Lopiccolo moving up from the JV squad
where he led the Panthers to the league title. The hope is he
can be the guy for the next two seasons.
Carlo is very talented. Hes going to be a real special player for
us, Philipopoulos said.
a three-year stint in the Bay, finds itself back in the Ocean.
Menlo School is always on the cusp of winning an Ocean title,
South City and Woodside are always two physical programs that
can give anyone in the PAL fits, while Kings Academy presents
a young, talented squad.
The Lake Division doesnt get a lot of love, but there has
been no more closely contested division title than this one over
the years. Co- and tri-champions have been commonplace,
which always makes for interesting playoffs discussions.
Capuchino has won nine of its last 10 Lake Division games
and is the reigning, unbeaten division champ. Jefferson, which
was runner-up last season, will have to replace some key,
dynamic players, while San Mateo looks to take another step
toward the top after a 3-2 mark last season. Carlmont and Mills
will be breaking in new head coaches and El Camino will look
to get back on the winning track following a one-win season in
2015.

Hillsdale
Knights
Head coach: Mike Parodi, 8th year
2015 record: 1-4 in PAL Ocean, 5-6 overall
Key returners: Isaiah Cozzolino (sr.,
WR/DB); Matthew Roloff (sr., OL/DL); Nate Rosas (sr., RB/DB)
Rafael Lugo-Fuentes (sr., RB/LB); Marcel White (Sr., OL/DL); Nate
Shani (sr., WR/DB); Ben Carrithers (sr., WR/S); Ben Frame (sr.,
QB/WR)
Key newcomers: Mark Wheeler (jr., WR/S); Jeremy Teteak (jr.,
QB); Noah Fitzhugh (jr., OL/DL).
2016 opener: Fri. vs. Riordan, 7 p.m.
Outlook: Coming off a 2015 season that was one of the greatest in Hillsdale history, culminating with its first Central Coast
Section championship game appearance since 1991, the
Knights find themselves in the Bay Division for the first time
in school history, ready or not.
The Knights will be tasked with replacing a number of key
players, but coach Mike Parodi is hoping he has developed a
program that can plug those kind of holes with talent.
Youre never ready (to take the next step), but at some point
you have to take the leap and know that what you are doing
is supporting the steps youre taking (as a program), Parodi
said.
Ben Frame, who mostly saw time at wide receiver last season
while also serving as backup quarterback, has the inside track
to the starting job this season.
Hell have a major security blanket in 6-5 receiver Isaiah Cozzolino, who averaged 20 yards a catch on 40 receptions and
scored 12 touchdowns last season.
Nate Rosas and Nick Hulman are the top two returning running backs, combining for nearly 800 yards rushing last year.
The lines are anchored by Matthew Roloff, a three-year starter
on defense and two-year starter on offense. Marcel White is
another second-year starter on the line.
Were not going to change anything we do, Parodi said.
Now we have to do it against teams we havent played before, understanding theyre going to have more playmakers.
As usual, the West Catholic Athletic League promises to be
one of the toughest races to win and expect Serra to be right in
that mix.
The Padres have one of the best players in the CCS in Leki
Nunn, the presumptive starting quarterback for the Padres. But
he is also one of the teams best running back, receiver and
defensive back, so finding the right spot in Patrick Walshs system may be the biggest key for the Padres. They are coming off
their probation following the 2014 playoff fiasco, so look for
Serra to want to make a statement this year.
CSM has a new head coach and its the same as the old head
coach. Larry Owens, who guided the Bulldogs for 19 years
before stepping down in 2008 and assuming an assistants role
for health reason, is back and as good as new. He will be taking
over head coaching duties from Bret Pollack and Tim Tulloch,
who shared the duties for seven years. Both remain as the
Bulldogs offensive and defensive coordinators, respectively.
So here we go. Only 83 days since the state track meet on
June 4 and the 2016-17 high school sports year is already upon
us.

Outlook: The buzz on the street is that the Bears are loaded.
With a handful of players who have garnered Division I scholarship offers, most of the 4x100 and 4x400 sprint relay teams,
and nearly 20 returning starters, its hard not to pick M-A.

Outlook: The Gators may have graduated a number ofname


players, but a deeper look at this years squad shows things
may not be as dire as some may believe.

Opponents can also expect to see a lot of what Terra Nova


has become known for: spreading out defenses and scoring
points in bunches.

My gut feeling is, well be OK, said SHP coach Pete Lavorato.

This year we have a young talented group of athletes. It reminds me of our 2010 CCS (championship) team, said Terra
Nova coach Tim Adams.

As could be expected, however, M-A coach Adhir Ravipati is not


ordering a championship banner just yet.
Theres a lot to be excited about, but we have to put it together, Ravipati said.
The Bears will feature one of the best 1-2 punches in league
coming out of the backfield in seniors Jordan Mims and Stavro
Papadakis, who combined for more than 1,500 yards rushing
last season. Ravipati said Mims already has four Division I scholarship offers. Papadakis is entering his third year as a varsity
starter and Ravipati said he might be the best two-way player
in the Central Coast Section.
Ravipati is expecting a breakout year for senior offensive lineman Epeli Mataele, entering his third year on varsity and an
all-league player last year. Noa Ngala could be the next bigname lineman to come out of the Peninsula if the sophomore
lives up to his potential. Ngala was bench pressing 350 pounds
last year as a freshman and the fact he is also a rugby player
means hes nimble afoot.
You dont find that many kids with (that kind of) power and
athleticism, Ravipati said.

Each side of the ball has a number of players returning from


last season, giving SHP a solid core around which to build.
Thomas Wine (whinny) is tasked with replacing graduated
quarterback Mason Randall, but Wine is hardly new to the
position or the varsity level. He started all last season as strong
safety on defense and was Randalls backup.
He knows the system, Lavorato said.Hes got varsity experience. Hes played with the big boys.
Hell have a nice security blanket in returning running back
Iosa Moimoi, who rushed for more than 1,100 yards and ran
for 15 scores in 2015. Hell be helped by flyback Alex Harper.
Defensively, Brendan Simien returns, albeit at a different position, moving from defensive end to linebacker.
He became one of our top three or four defensive players
(last year), Lavorato said.Hes a good athlete and can make
more plays at linebacker.
Expect the Gators to make more plays this season than some
might envision.

Outlook: With 16 returners players, look for the Tigers to be


back in the mix for the Bay title.

Nate Gordon, younger brother of 2014 starter Anthony Gordon, will get the start under center. Gordon, a junior, is a
combined 17-3 as the starter for the freshmen and JV teams
the last two seasons and, like in previous years, hell have
plenty of throwing targets. Adams is expecting big things out
of junior receiver Richard Walls, who the coach believes could
catch 70 to 80 balls this season.
High expectations are also on running back Saini Saini, who
rushed for nearly 1,000 yards splitting time last season. Hes
expected to be the featured back this season and Adams believes the skys the limit.
I think he will be a 1,500-, 1600-yard rusher,Adams said.Hes
really elusive.
The line will be anchored by center Michael Matau and Angelo Pera, both returners. Adams thinks Ed Hunt can be
all-league defensive end and junior newcomer Chris Rigling
can be a force on the d-line as well.
Were so much improved (defensively), Adams said.

Bay players to watch


ARAGON
Sosiua Tongamoa (sr., RB/LB): The younger
brother of former Aragon standout Bubba
Tongamoa, Aragon coach Steve Sell expects
a lot from Sosiua, who finished fifth in the
100-meter sprint at the PAL championships
this past spring.
He can run away from guys, Sell said.
Anthony Sandoval (sr., WR/DB): Sandoval
may be the best athlete at Aragon. Not only
is he a standout on the football field, but he
excels on the soccer pitch and on the track, as
well.
Hes just such great player on both sides of
the ball, Sell said.
BURLINGAME
Carlo Lopiccolo (jr., QB): Lopiccolo led the
JV squad to the league title last season, so

the next step? coach Mike Parodi said.
Matthew Roloff (sr., OL/DL): A three-year
varsity player, Roloff is the unquestioned
leader of the Knights offensive and defensive
lines. A big season from him would bode well
for the Knights in Bay Division play this season.

We think hes going to have a monster year,
said M-A coach Adhir Ravipati.
Stavro Papadakis (Sr., RB/LB): A three-year

Stavro is one of the best two-way players in

Iosa Moimoi (sr., RB/LB): Moimoi is entering

Hes certainly stronger, said SHP coach Pete

last year, probably more.


Thomas Wine (sr., QB): Pronouncedwhinny,

Hes a really good athlete, Lavorato said.

Nate Gordon (jr., QB): Looking to follow in the
footsteps of older brother Anthony, who recently transferred to Washington State,Gordon
has been nothing but successful at the lower

was a combined 17-3.
Richard Walls (jr., WR/DB): Moving up with
Gordon is arguably his favorite target. Tigers
coach Tim Adams expect big things from the
first-year varsity player.
Hes going to be a guy to catch 70, 80 passes
this year, Adams said.

touchdown throw in two preseason games. He
played three series against both Houston and
Denver.
In addition to Kaepernicks absence, the
49ers lost quarterback Thaddeus Lewis for the
season when he tore an anterior cruciate ligament during the preseason opener. They
signed former Vikings first-round pick
Christian Ponder on Aug. 16 and he made his
San Francisco debut four days later against the
defending Super Bowl champions.
Ponder led two late scoring drives, running
for a 22-yard touchdown and finding receiver
Dres Anderson on a 30-yard touchdown pass
with 6:27 to go, which was the games decisive score. Ponder completed seven of eight
throws for 86 yards.

In addition, a program needs continuity at


the highest level, meaning the head coach. If
there is one characteristic that is common
with nearly every head coach in the Bay is
their longevity. Sell is in his 17th year.
Philipopoulos in entering his 15th. SHP
coach Pete Lavorato has been with the program since its inception and is entering his
15th season. They know what it takes to be
successful at the highest levels, having gone
through the trial and error of building a program.
You look at the league, and every team is
really well coached, said M-A coach Adhir
Ravipati, who is the most junior of Bay
Division coaches, entering just his second
season with the Bears. He was, however, a
longtime assistant and was very familiar with
the culture before he took over the program.
Its a league where every week you have to
show up and prepare all week and perform at a
high level.
Mike Parodi is entering his seventh season
with Hillsdale and for the rst time since the
inception of the two-tiered, and now threetiered, PAL in 1996, he has guided the Knights
to the Bay this season.
This will be his rst go around with the
PALs big boys, so he doesnt quite know what
to expect. One thing he does know, however,
is that his team will have to be better than
they were last year if they want to stay in the
leagues highest division.
Basically, what [we] did last year, thats
not good enough for the Bay. If youre trying
to compete for a Bay championship, we need
to improve in all facets of our program,
Parodi said. Your program has to be legitimately strong, top to bottom. You have to
have developmental systems in place.
Having great kids who are also great athletes is probably the most important aspect.
There was a time when the Bay Division
was lightly regarded by many teams in CCS.
But since 2001, Bay Division squads have
combined to win nine CCS titles with
Sacred Heart Prep having won ve straight
coming into 2016.
(The Bay Division is) good football.
When I started coaching in 1992, Aragon beat
M-A for the CCS North championship. Then
we joined the regular CCS and they said, Can
those North schools play here? Sell said. I
think weve shown we can play.

Pfizer spends $14B on Medivation in cancer fight


By Tom Murphy
and Linda A. Johnson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Pfizer will pay about $14 billion to


buy
cancer
drug
developer
Medivation in a cash deal aimed at
fortifying its hold in one of the
hottest and most lucrative areas of
medicine.
The New York drugmaker said
Monday that the acquisition will
stock its product portfolio with leading treatments for the most common
cancers in men and women by adding
Medivations pricey prostate cancer
treatment Xtandi to a lineup that
already includes the breast cancer
drug Ibrance.
Pfizer CEO Ian Read called the
acquisition a rare opportunity to
add an established treatment and a
pipeline of drugs under development.
Medivation presents an attractive
target as a specialty drugmaker
focused on developing medicines for
cancer and serious diseases with few
treatment options. Earlier this year,
it rejected a $9.3 billion offer from
the French drugmaker Sanofi.
Pfizer, best known for mass-market
drugs such as impotence pill Viagra
and cholesterol fighter Lipitor,
began pursuing cancer drugs well
after most industry leaders. It has
been furiously playing catch up,
mainly through partnerships with
university researchers and other drugmakers.
Last year, Medivation brought in
$943 million in revenue, mainly
through Xtandi, which it sells in
partnership with the Japanese drugmaker Astellas Pharma.
Xtandi has drawn attention from the

public interest group Knowledge


Economy International, which has
protested the $129, 000-a year list
price for the treatment. The U.S. government covers much of the cost for
Xtandi prescriptions filled under federal health programs such as
Medicare, Medicaid and the Veterans
Administration.
Aside from Xtandi, Pfizer Inc. said
Medivation also has a promising
pipeline of cancer drugs in late-stage
clinical development. That includes
the potential breast cancer treatment
talazoparib and a potential lymphoma drug. Researchers also are
studying Xtandi as a possible treatment for earlier-stage prostate cancers.
Pfizer said Monday that it will pay
$81.50 per Medivation share. Thats
a 21 percent premium to the San
Francisco biotechs Friday closing
price of $67.19.
The boards of both companies have
approved the deal, which is targeted
to close in the third or fourth quarter.
The Pfizer-Medivation deal is much
smaller than Pfizers proposed,
$160-billion combination with
Irelands Allergan, a plan the drugmakers scrapped after the Treasury
Department issued new rules this
spring aimed specially at blocking
that deal. It was structured as a tax
inversion, which means Pfizers
headquarters would move, on paper
only, from New York to reduce the
drugmakers U.S. tax bill.
There has been a push from Wall
Street for the drugmaker to break
itself up into smaller companies so
that it can grow faster. While hesitant, Pfizer has promised to decide
the issue by the end of this year.

REUTERS

A man walks past Pfizer's world headquarters in New York.


In the meantime, the company has
focused on a series of partnerships
and deals showing the company can
grow as a whole. And company shares
have begun to climb after years in the
doldrums.
Shares are up 8 percent this year,
outpacing all major U. S. trading
indexes.
BernsteinResearch analyst Dr. Tim
Anderson, who has pushed repeatedly
for a breakup, wrote that paying more
than $80 per share for a stock that
was trading in the $30s just a few
months ago feels pricey at first
glance.
Shares of Medivation Inc. soared
nearly 20 percent, or $13. 33, to
$80.49 early Monday, while Pfizer
climbed 22 cents to $35.20.

BELMONT
Continued from page 1
The City Council meets Tuesday, April 23,
for a study session on the Belmont Village
Specific Plan a zoning and policy document that will cover a range of issues such
as transportation, pedestrian-friendly
streetscapes, housing density, parking,
open space and more.
Belmont has long wanted for a walkable,
economically-viable downtown and is crafting the planning document in an effort to
provide property owners with a clear path
toward preferred types of redevelopment.
The plan will be a central component of the
citys overall General Plan update and a draft
of the downtown village document is anticipated in September.
I think the finalization of the Belmont
Village Specific Plan and the General Plan is
the spark thats needed in order to get this
going, said Mayor Eric Reed, who noted
the citys outdated 1982 General Plan would
be replaced by a forward-thinking document
he hopes the public will weigh in on. As a
resident, you can get involved, you can help
shape the future of your city and thats not a
cliche, you really can help. These plans
about what Belmont is going to develop
into over the next couple decades and they
rely heavily on citizen input.
The entire plan covers an area clustered
around the El Camino Real and Ralston

DEBATE
Continued from page 1
enough signatures to be placed on the ballot, the San Mateo City Council opted not
to place arguments on behalf of the city as a
whole. The council was divided as to
whether it should publicly argue on Measure
Q the San Mateo Community
Preservation and Fair Rent Charter
Amendment.
The proposal would tie rents to the consumer price index between 1 percent and 4
percent, prevent unjust evictions and create
an independent housing commission to
oversee implementation of the rules. It
exempts new developments, single-family
homes and owner-occupied duplexes, and
rent control would only apply to multi-family buildings constructed before Feb. 1,
1995.
Various segments of the community
remain at odds over the proposal with two
councilwomen signing on to the opposition argument, a planning commissioner
supporting the measure, and two key repre-

Avenue intersection. Its roughly bordered


by Hiller Street to the east, Harbor
Boulevard to the south, Twin Pines Park to
the west and Middle Road to the north.
Various public workshops, stakeholder
interviews, neighborhood as well as council and Planning Commission study sessions have informed the seven-part document, according to a staff report.
Community Development Director Carlos
de Melo said Tuesdays overview is a great
opportunity for people to learn about the
document and staff hopes to receive further
direction from the council before finalizing
the draft.
While the comprehensive plan covers
design guidelines, zoning and priorities,
the overarching guidance does not actually
build anything, de Melo pointed out.
We need collaboration between property
owners, developers and other stakeholders
to make the downtown vision become a
reality, de Melo said, adding a good economy is another primary driver. We hope
people look at this document and say, you
know, I think I want to be a part of it.
The plan is broken into various zoning
segments with the village core to the west
of El Camino Real, the station core northeast of the Caltrain station, the village
corridor mixed use surrounding Old County
Road and the eastern portion of Ralston
Avenue, and smaller pockets of village
high density residential near Masonic Way
and Elmer Street.
Reed and Councilman Doug Kim cited

housing as one of the prime segments


theyre looking forward to learning more
about.
Kim, a planner with SamTrans, said he
also wants to focus on circulation and transportation downtown as a way to offset
impacts of future growth.
Many people want more stores and
shops in downtown Belmont. But those
things come with a ton of benefits and traffic. No one likes traffic, so weve got to find
kind of that sweet spot. So my priorities
have always been managing traffic and
increasing our housing stock, Kim said.
The plan could set density caps for new
residential developments, identifies affordable housing priority sites and outlines
street improvements to enhance pedestrian
and bicycle mobility.

sentatives with the citys homeowners


association differing in their opinions.
Opponents who submitted a ballot argument by last Fridays deadline include
Maureen Freschet and Diane Papan, councilwomen who publicly spoke against the
measure last week; Cheryl Angeles, CEO of
the San Mateo Chamber of Commerce; Anna
Kuhre, president emeritus of the San Mateo
United Homeowners Association; and former mayor Claire Mack.
Supporters arguing in favor include the
Rev. Penny Nixon, a resident and faith
leader; John Ebneter, a San Mateo planning
commissioner; Ben Toy, president of the
San
Mateo
United
Homeowners
Association; Jennifer Martinez, executive
director of Faith in Action, the organization
that sponsored the ballot initiative; community activist Rich Hedges; and political
consultant Mitchell Oster.
Proponents call Measure Q a common
sense, fair solution that will protect the
citys future. They also cite exceptions
allowing for rents to be increased to cover
maintenance costs, exempting mom-andpop landlords by not applying to owneroccupied duplexes or in-law units, and

rolling back base rents for applicable properties to September 2015.


They argue the council has been unable to
find a meaningful solution while the citys
high rents affect everyone by making it difficult to retain teachers, nurses, restaurant
workers and essential public safety personnel.
Measure Q makes housing costs predictable and stable, freeing San Mateo residents from constant fear of losing their
homes. Rents have skyrocketed in recent
years. Wages have not kept pace, putting
profound stress on our community. As we
lose our family and community members,
we lose San Mateos quality of life, according to the argument in favor.
Similar to concerns Freschet and Papan
raised during last weeks council meeting
and as in Burlingames opposition argument, opponents cite the impact to the city
government and finances as concerns, and
contend it would not solve the affordability
crisis. They note the housing commission
would not be not accountable to the council
or an elected body, and it could need a $2.5
million annual budget while requiring 10
full-time employees. They also contend rent

The document also touches on design
guidelines, public infrastructure, environmental sustainability, parks and recreation,
noise, air quality and public safety.
De Melo said the standalone document,
while eventually incorporated into the
General Plan, will provide guidance and
could streamline developments that comply
with the village plan zoning regulations.
Reed said hes looking forward to learning
about the status of the downtown plan,
while noting some key facets that will be
further laid out in the citywide General Plan.
Preserving Belmonts beloved parks and
open space, providing homeowners flexibility with remodel rules and preserving
neighborhoods unique charm are a few priorities, Reed said.
While the process of drafting planning
documents may not be thrilling to most in
the community, city officials urged people
to get involved in designing the future of
Belmont.
The whole goal of this is a 20-year forecast, Kim said. We just want to make sure
that 20 years from now, we feel like downtown is real and people can look back at
what were doing now and say they saw
how this part of town could go from being
good, to being great.

control would mandate privately-funded
subsidies to tenants that arent actually in
need.
Dont be fooled into believing that
Measure Q will solve the housing crisis or
that there will be no cost to the city and taxpayers. Measure Q will drive up rents and
make housing unaffordable. The unlimited
power given to this unaccountable commission is dangerous and will have untended
consequences, damaging to our city and all
residents, according to the argument
against.
Neither the San Mateo County
Association of Realtors, which is soliciting donations to fight the San Mateo and
Burlingame campaigns, nor the California
Apartment Association signed on to the
ballot opposition. However, both are
expected to campaign against it.
Rebuttal arguments, as well as an expected impartial analysis prepared by the city
attorney, are due Monday, Aug. 29, and will
be included in the San Mateo voters elections materials.

Zika researchers seek volunteers willing to be infected


By Lauran Neergaard
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Wanted:
Volunteers willing to be infected
with the Zika virus for science.
It may sound bizarre, but
researchers are planning just such
a study this winter, when mosquitoes arent biting to help
speed development of much-needed Zika vaccines.
The quest for a vaccine began
less than a year ago as Brazils
massive outbreak revealed that
Zika, once dismissed as a nuisance
virus, can harm a fetus brain if a
woman is infected during pregnancy.
Now, researchers in the United
States have begun safety testing
of two vaccine candidates, and
more experimental shots are
poised to enter that preliminary
testing soon. Any that seem
promising will have to be tested
in thousands of people in parts of
Latin America and the Caribbean
that are hard-hit by the mosquitoborne virus the only way to
prove if an experimental vaccine
really protects.
Even if all goes well, a vaccine
wouldnt be available for general
use any time soon.
But a different kind of research
also can offer clues for vaccine
development. Its called a human
challenge study, when healthy
and nonpregnant people agree
to be injected deliberately with a
virus, mimicking natural infection while scientists track how
their bodies react.
The first question is even more
basic: How much of the virus does
it take to infect someone?
If government regulators agree,
researchers could find out by
injecting paid volunteers with different amounts of lab-grown Zika
virus as early as December in a
Baltimore hospital. That information will help the researchers
later, when theyre ready to test an
experimental Zika vaccine.
Were looking at these human
challenge protocols not only as
an important step in vaccine
development but as a means to
learn more about Zika, said Dr.
Anna Durbin of Johns Hopkins

REUTERS

Aedes aegypti mosquitoes are seen inside Oxitec laboratory.


Bloomberg School of Public
Health, who is leading the work.
We can look at things that you
just cant do in someone whos
naturally infected.
Some questions and answers
about the development of Zika
vaccines:
Q: Whi ch po tenti al v acci nes are fi rs t i n l i ne?
A: Two so-called DNA vaccines
have begun preliminary safety
testing, one made by the National
Institutes of Health and the other
by Pennsylvania-based Inovio
Pharmaceuticals.
They mark a new kind of technology. Traditionally, vaccines
are made using a dead or weakened
virus to train the bodys immune
system to recognize that infection
and fight it off. DNA vaccines may
be easier to make. Scientists used
a circular piece of DNA, called a
plasmid, to carry genes that
prompt the body itself to produce
certain Zika virus proteins, alerting the immune system.

That piece of trickery worked in


animals. The phase 1 studies in
dozens of people will check for
safety, and whether the vaccinations rev up human immunity
enough to justify further tests.
Q: Wh at e l s e i s i n t h e
pi pel i ne?
A: We are right now in a race of
time to get the best vaccine, said
Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of
NIHs National Institute of
Allergy and Infectious Diseases.
Multiple candidates are important as theres no way to predict
which kind will work best. The
DNA vaccines simply were ready
for human testing first.
In October, safety tests are set to
begin using the more traditional
killed-virus vaccine, developed by
the Walter Reed Army Institute of
Research.
The NIH also is developing a
vaccine using live-but-weakened
virus, the type thought to trigger
particularly long-lasting immune
protection. Thats the kind used to

protect against rubella, which


back in the 1960s caused an epidemic of birth defects.
Q: If the fi rs t candi dates
are s afe, what happens nex t?
A: Fauci expects to open nextstep studies in January, enrolling
2,400 to 5,000 people in areas
where Zika still is spreading widely to test if the vaccinated are less
likely than the unvaccinated to
become infected.
Q: Are v acci nes ai med at
preg nant wo men?
A: Not at this point. Its hard to
test new products during pregnancy. Plus, a fetus can be vulnerable
to Zika even before a woman realizes shes pregnant.
The goal instead is to vaccinate
women of childbearing age and
their sexual partners - because
Zika also can be transmitted
through sex - well before pregnancy ever occurs.
Q: Wh e re do t h e h uman
chal l eng e s tudi es co me i n?
A: Jabbing someone with Zika

is faster than waiting around for a


mosquito to bite them to see if an
experimental vaccine provides
protection. But first Durbin must
find what dose of Zika causes
infection, to be sure shes giving
a vaccine enough of a challenge.
Thats what the study planned
for December would do. Volunteers
given different amounts of Zika
would be kept in a Hopkins hospital unit for 12 days, to be sure the
virus had cleared the bloodstream,
and would have to agree to use
condoms for a while afterward to
avoid any possibility of sexual
transmission. Because Zika usually causes few if any symptoms,
those infected might expect a rash
or low fever.
The second round of the research
would recruit volunteers whod
received an experimental vaccine,
trying to infect them with Zika six
months after their shot.
The extra benefit: Tracking people from the moment theyre
exposed to Zika also could shed
important new light on how the
virus affects the body such as
how long its infectious in blood,
semen and other bodily fluids, and
just how the immune system
fights it off.
Q: Has t h i s b e e n do n e
befo re?
A: Human challenge studies are
rare because theyre difficult to
perform and expensive. But
Durbin recently did just such
research to test a potential vaccine
against dengue, a dangerous
cousin of Zika, and doesnt expect
difficulty recruiting volunteers for
the Zika study once regulators are
satisfied it can be conducted safely.
Q: What abo ut the fi g ht
o v e r f e de ral f un di n g f o r
Zi ka?
A: In February, the Obama
administration requested $1.9 billion for the nations fight against
Zika, including vaccine development, but Congress hasnt
approved any of it. With existing
money running out, federal health
officials are taking funds meant
for other diseases to get by until
the end of the year but Fauci
said NIH alone will need $196 million more in 2017 to avoid delays
in the vaccine research.

RENT
Continued from page 1
upcoming fall presidential election
ballot Tuesday, Nov. 8.
The proposed policy is too broad,
overregulatory and threatens to harm
the citys bottom line, among a variety of other deficiencies, according to
the citys argument.
Measure R is a deeply flawed,
ambiguous ordinance with no legal or
financial accountability to residents,
according to the argument. We urge
you to vote no on Measure R.
Prior to agreeing to put the initiative
to voters during a meeting Monday,
Aug. 1, the council agreed it would
form a unified front in opposition of
the proposal and each councilmember
subsequently signed the argument
against Measure R.
Backers of the ballot initiative
though claimed in their supporting
argument the policies are necessary to
steady the rental market in
Burlingame.
Measure R makes housing costs
predictable and stable, freeing
Burlingame residents from constant
fear of losing their homes, according
to the supporting argument authored
by Cynthia Cornell, president of the
Burlingame Advocates for Renter
Protections. Rents have skyrocketed
in recent years. Wages have not kept
pace, putting profound stress on our
community. As we lose our family and
community members, we lose

TENURE
Continued from page 1
highlighted tensions between teacher
unions, school leaders, lawmakers and
well-funded education reform groups
over whether policies like tenure and firing teachers with the least seniority
keep ineffective instructors in the classroom.
Dozens of states have moved in recent
years to get rid of such protections or
raise the standards for obtaining them.
Associate Justice Goodwin Liu voted
for the California Supreme Court to take
up the case, saying it affected millions
of students statewide and presented a
significant legal issue that the lower
court likely got wrong.
As the states highest court, we owe
the plaintiffs in this case, as well as
schoolchildren throughout California,
our transparent and reasoned judgment
on whether the challenged statutes
deprive a significant subset of students
of their fundamental right to education
and violate the constitutional guarantee
of equal protection of the laws, he said.
Associate
Justice
MarianoFlorentino Cuellar echoed those con-

Burlingames quality of life.


The proposal aims to do away with
Measure T, approved by voters in 1987
stripping the council of the power to
establish policy regulating the citys
rental market. Measure R, if approved
by voters, would fill that void with a
variety of renter-friendly policies such
as guaranteeing just cause eviction
protections, rent stabilization, relocation assistance requirements for those
displaced and more.
A primary target of officials is an
effort in the ordinance to establish an
independent rental housing commission, which according to the opposition argument could result in a variety
of harmful unintended consequences.
Under the proposal, the council
would appoint all five rental commission members, two of who would be
allowed to be landlords or developers
and the remaining three would be
required to be tenants. The commission would be charged with setting
rents at levels considered to be fair
and equitable, and could have the
power to authorize rate adjustments,
establish penalties for noncompliance
with its regulations, pursue lawsuits
when commissioners see fit and a variety of other administrative duties.
To finance its operations, the commission would draw from a rental housing fee charged to landlords and may
also be able to request and receive
funds when and if necessary from any
available source for its reasonable and
necessary expenses, according to the
ballot language.
Cornell in her argument claimed the
rental commission would be a useful

asset in monitoring the Burlingame


rental market and enforcing the
statutes of Measure R without burdening the city staff, while Brownrigg
offered a contrasting opinion.
Measure R mandates a rental housing commission; an unaccountable
body with the power to asses fees, hire
countless staff and lawyers, and sue at
will virtually a blank check,
according to the argument. The power
of taxation should not reside in an
unelected body. Moreover, appeals
would go directly into San Mateo
Countys overburdened courts.
Beyond the establishment of the
commission, Brownriggs argument
also takes issue with the potential for
the policy to regulate the citys hotel
industry, shrink the rental market and
in the process harm the local tax base
along with placing undue burden on
landlords and property owners.
Burlingame would be poorly served
by Measure R, with its unaccountable,
expensive rental housing commission
and the ensuing legal environment,
according to the argument.
Cornell though argued the new policy is necessary to guarantee a place is
preserved in Burlingame for all members of the community.
Burlingames high rents affect
everyone. Were losing teachers.
Restaurants cant find workers.
Property values are directly related to
the quality of our schools and availability of essential service personnel, according to the ballot argument.
Together, we can sustain a vibrant and
livable Burlingame.

cerns in a separate dissent.


A Los Angeles Superior Court judge
sided with the students in a 2014 ruling
that threatened to shake up the states
public school system, which teaches
more than 6 million students from
kindergarten through 12th-grade.
In striking down several laws regarding tenure, seniority and other protections, Superior Court Judge Rolf Treu
said the harm inflicted on students by
incompetent teachers shocks the conscience.
Gov. Jerry Brown, a
Democrat, appealed the ruling, and an
appeals court overturned that decision
in April, saying the students had failed
to show Californias hiring and firing
rules were unconstitutional.
Justice Roger Boren, who presided
over the 2nd District Court of Appeal,
wrote in the 3-0 opinion that some principals get rid of highly ineffective
teachers by sending them to lowincome schools, but those decisions
have nothing to do with the teacher
tenure law.
Teachers have long argued that tenure
protects them from being fired on a
whim, preserves academic freedom and
helps attract talented people to a profession that doesnt pay well.
I hope this decision closes the book
on the flawed and divisive argument that

links educators workplace protections


with student disadvantage, American
Federation of Teachers President Randi
Weingarten said in a statement. It is
now well past time that we move beyond
damaging lawsuits like Vergara that
demonize educators and begin to work
with teachers to address the real issues
caused by the massive underinvestment
in public education in this country.
The Vergara v. State of California lawsuit, including Beatriz Vergara among
the public school student plaintiffs, was
backed by Students Matter, a nonprofit
group founded by Silicon Valley entrepreneur David Welch. Welch assembled a
high-profile legal team including
Theodore Boutrous, who successfully
fought to overturn Californias gaymarriage ban.
Boutrous said additional lawsuits in
state and federal court challenging the
teacher tenure law were possible. Welch
said he was hopeful the legislature would
take up the issue.
While we are disappointed in the
Supreme Courts decision to not grant
review, we are grateful to the courts for
shining a much-needed spotlight on
these shameful laws and the enormous
harm they inflict on thousands of children every year, Welch said in a statement.

RENT
Continued from page 1
upcoming fall presidential election
ballot Tuesday, Nov. 8.
The proposed policy is too broad,
overregulatory and threatens to harm
the citys bottom line, among a variety of other deficiencies, according to
the citys argument.
Measure R is a deeply flawed,
ambiguous ordinance with no legal or
financial accountability to residents,
according to the argument. We urge
you to vote no on Measure R.
Prior to agreeing to put the initiative
to voters during a meeting Monday,
Aug. 1, the council agreed it would
form a unified front in opposition of
the proposal and each councilmember
subsequently signed the argument
against Measure R.
Backers of the ballot initiative
though claimed in their supporting
argument the policies are necessary to
steady the rental market in
Burlingame.
Measure R makes housing costs
predictable and stable, freeing
Burlingame residents from constant
fear of losing their homes, according
to the supporting argument authored
by Cynthia Cornell, president of the
Burlingame Advocates for Renter
Protections. Rents have skyrocketed
in recent years. Wages have not kept
pace, putting profound stress on our
community. As we lose our family and
community members, we lose

TENURE
Continued from page 1
highlighted tensions between teacher
unions, school leaders, lawmakers and
well-funded education reform groups
over whether policies like tenure and firing teachers with the least seniority
keep ineffective instructors in the classroom.
Dozens of states have moved in recent
years to get rid of such protections or
raise the standards for obtaining them.
Associate Justice Goodwin Liu voted
for the California Supreme Court to take
up the case, saying it affected millions
of students statewide and presented a
significant legal issue that the lower
court likely got wrong.
As the states highest court, we owe
the plaintiffs in this case, as well as
schoolchildren throughout California,
our transparent and reasoned judgment
on whether the challenged statutes
deprive a significant subset of students
of their fundamental right to education
and violate the constitutional guarantee
of equal protection of the laws, he said.
Associate
Justice
MarianoFlorentino Cuellar echoed those con-

Burlingames quality of life.


The proposal aims to do away with
Measure T, approved by voters in 1987
stripping the council of the power to
establish policy regulating the citys
rental market. Measure R, if approved
by voters, would fill that void with a
variety of renter-friendly policies such
as guaranteeing just cause eviction
protections, rent stabilization, relocation assistance requirements for those
displaced and more.
A primary target of officials is an
effort in the ordinance to establish an
independent rental housing commission, which according to the opposition argument could result in a variety
of harmful unintended consequences.
Under the proposal, the council
would appoint all five rental commission members, two of who would be
allowed to be landlords or developers
and the remaining three would be
required to be tenants. The commission would be charged with setting
rents at levels considered to be fair
and equitable, and could have the
power to authorize rate adjustments,
establish penalties for noncompliance
with its regulations, pursue lawsuits
when commissioners see fit and a variety of other administrative duties.
To finance its operations, the commission would draw from a rental housing fee charged to landlords and may
also be able to request and receive
funds when and if necessary from any
available source for its reasonable and
necessary expenses, according to the
ballot language.
Cornell in her argument claimed the
rental commission would be a useful

asset in monitoring the Burlingame


rental market and enforcing the
statutes of Measure R without burdening the city staff, while Brownrigg
offered a contrasting opinion.
Measure R mandates a rental housing commission; an unaccountable
body with the power to asses fees, hire
countless staff and lawyers, and sue at
will virtually a blank check,
according to the argument. The power
of taxation should not reside in an
unelected body. Moreover, appeals
would go directly into San Mateo
Countys overburdened courts.
Beyond the establishment of the
commission, Brownriggs argument
also takes issue with the potential for
the policy to regulate the citys hotel
industry, shrink the rental market and
in the process harm the local tax base
along with placing undue burden on
landlords and property owners.
Burlingame would be poorly served
by Measure R, with its unaccountable,
expensive rental housing commission
and the ensuing legal environment,
according to the argument.
Cornell though argued the new policy is necessary to guarantee a place is
preserved in Burlingame for all members of the community.
Burlingames high rents affect
everyone. Were losing teachers.
Restaurants cant find workers.
Property values are directly related to
the quality of our schools and availability of essential service personnel, according to the ballot argument.
Together, we can sustain a vibrant and
livable Burlingame.

cerns in a separate dissent.


A Los Angeles Superior Court judge
sided with the students in a 2014 ruling
that threatened to shake up the states
public school system, which teaches
more than 6 million students from
kindergarten through 12th-grade.
In striking down several laws regarding tenure, seniority and other protections, Superior Court Judge Rolf Treu
said the harm inflicted on students by
incompetent teachers shocks the conscience.
Gov. Jerry Brown, a
Democrat, appealed the ruling, and an
appeals court overturned that decision
in April, saying the students had failed
to show Californias hiring and firing
rules were unconstitutional.
Justice Roger Boren, who presided
over the 2nd District Court of Appeal,
wrote in the 3-0 opinion that some principals get rid of highly ineffective
teachers by sending them to lowincome schools, but those decisions
have nothing to do with the teacher
tenure law.
Teachers have long argued that tenure
protects them from being fired on a
whim, preserves academic freedom and
helps attract talented people to a profession that doesnt pay well.
I hope this decision closes the book
on the flawed and divisive argument that

links educators workplace protections


with student disadvantage, American
Federation of Teachers President Randi
Weingarten said in a statement. It is
now well past time that we move beyond
damaging lawsuits like Vergara that
demonize educators and begin to work
with teachers to address the real issues
caused by the massive underinvestment
in public education in this country.
The Vergara v. State of California lawsuit, including Beatriz Vergara among
the public school student plaintiffs, was
backed by Students Matter, a nonprofit
group founded by Silicon Valley entrepreneur David Welch. Welch assembled a
high-profile legal team including
Theodore Boutrous, who successfully
fought to overturn Californias gaymarriage ban.
Boutrous said additional lawsuits in
state and federal court challenging the
teacher tenure law were possible. Welch
said he was hopeful the legislature would
take up the issue.
While we are disappointed in the
Supreme Courts decision to not grant
review, we are grateful to the courts for
shining a much-needed spotlight on
these shameful laws and the enormous
harm they inflict on thousands of children every year, Welch said in a statement.

objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person
or by your attorney.
If you are a creditor or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your
claim with the court and mail a copy to
the personal representative appointed by
the court within the later of either (1) four
months from the date of first issuance of
letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the
Calilfornia Probate Code, or (2) 60 days
from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under sectioin
9052 of the Callifornia Probate
Code.Other California statutes and legal
authority may affect your rights as a
creditor. You may want to consult with an
attorney knowledgable in California law.
You may examine the file kept by the
court. If you are a person interested in
the estate, you may file with the court a
Request for Special Notice (form DE154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any petition
or account as provided in Probate Code
section 1250. A Request for Special Notice form is available from the court clerk.

airstrikes on Syria for the time being, Irans
Foreign Ministry spokesman said Monday,
just hours after the Iranian defense minister
criticized Moscow for having kind of
show-off and ungentlemanly attitude by
publicizing their actions.
Moscow, which had used the Shahid Nojeh
Air Base to refuel its bombers striking Syria
at least three times last week, confirmed that
all Russian warplanes that were based in Iran
have returned to Russia.
A statement issued by the Russian Defense
Ministry said Monday that as long as Iran
agreed, Russia could use the Iranian air base
again, depending on the situation in
Syria. Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman
Bahram Ghasemi told reporters in Tehran
that the Russian airstrikes on militants in
Syria were temporary, based on a Russian
request.
It is finished, for now, Ghasemi said,
without elaborating.

Pakistani protesters
attack TV stations, one killed
KARACHI, Pakistan Pakistani protesters attacked TV stations and clashed with
police in the southern city of Karachi on
Monday, leaving one person dead and eight
others wounded, including three media
workers, officials said.
Supporters of the Muttahida Qaumi
Movement, known as the MQM, accuse the
media of failing to cover a six-day hunger
strike protesting the recent arrest of party
members. After a speech Monday broadcast
from London by the partys self-exiled
leader, Altaf Hussain, protesters marched on
two TV stations and torched three vehicles.

Last week, Russia announced it used the


airfield, located some 50 kilometers (31
miles) north of the Iranian city of Hamedan.
Iranian officials only confirmed Russias
presence a day later.
Earlier Monday, state TV quoted Irans
defense minister as saying that Russia will
use the base for a very short and fixed span.
The comments by Gen. Hossein Dehghan
came after he chastised parliament this
weekend for asking questions about Russia
using the base.
Responding to a question about why Iran
didnt initially announce Russias presence
at the airfield, Dehghan appeared prickly on
the state TV broadcast.
Russians are interested to show they are a
superpower to guarantee their share in political future of Syria and, of course, there has
been a kind of show-off and ungentlemanly
(attitude) in this field, he said.
Dehghans remarks also suggest Russia
and Iran initially agreed to keep Moscows
use of the air base quiet. Its announcement
likely worried Irans Sunni-ruled Mideast
neighbors, which host American military
personnel.

Senior police officer Saqib Ismail said
police fired tear gas and arrested 12 people.
Dr Seemi Jamali at Jinnah Hospital said
one person was killed and eight others were
wounded, two by gunshots.
The MQM has a history of violent
protests and clashes with police and rival
political parties in Karachi.
The Rangers, a paramilitary force that
polices Karachi, later raided the partys
offices and arrested a number of leaders and
lawmakers after the army chief, Gen. Raheel
Sharif, ordered stern measures against those
behind the violence.

Turkey vows to cleanse border of


Islamic State after deadly attack

ANKARA, Turkey Turkey vowed


Monday to fight Islamic State militants at
home and to cleanse the group from its
borders after a weekend suicide bombing at a
Kurdish wedding, an attack that came amid
recent gains by Syrian Kurdish militia
forces against the extremists in neighboring Syria.
The bombing Saturday in the southern city
of Gaziantep, near the border with Syria,
killed at least 54 people many of them
children. Nearly 70 others were wounded in
the attack, the deadliest in Turkey this year.
There was no immediate claim of responsibility, but officials said it appeared to be the
work of the Islamic State group. Authorities
were trying to identify the attacker, who
President Recep Tayyip Erdogan initially
said was a child. However, Prime Minister
Binali Yildirim said Monday that it was
unclear whether the bomber was a child or a
grown-up.
A clue has not yet been found concerning
the perpetrator, Yildirim told reporters fol-

lowing a weekly Cabinet meeting. He said


the earlier assertion that the attacker was
child was a guess based on witness
accounts.
At least 22 of those killed were children
younger than 14, according to a Turkish official who spoke on condition of anonymity
in line with Turkish government rules.
The attack came after the Syria Democratic
Forces, a coalition led by the main Kurdish
militia groups in Syria, captured the former
IS stronghold of Manbij in northern Syria
under the cover of airstrikes by the U.S.-led
coalition.
It appears to be an act to punish the
PYD, said Nihat Ali Ozcan a security and terrorism expert at the Ankara-based Economic
Policy Research Foundation of Turkey, referring to a Syrian Kurdish group whose militia
is fighting IS. Its the cross-border settlement of scores by two actors fighting in
Syria.
Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu told
reporters Monday that Turkey would press
ahead with its fight against the Islamic State
group inside Turkey and support efforts to
remove IS fighters from its borders.
