City helps tenants stay put

Mobile home park residents to get relocation assistance
By Bill Silverfarb
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Residents at a mobile home park in

Pacifica who were given notices to vacate
can stay put for now as ownership is set to
also offer them relocation assistance, City
Manager Lorie Tinfow announced
Thursday.
The relocation assistance includes physical relocation within the park for some
and financial assistance and support services for others who decide to leave the
park, Tinfow wrote in a statement.
We appreciate that the notices have
been rescinded to relieve the pressure on
the tenants to move. In addition, we have
reviewed the relocation assistance and

believe the package being offered is
appropriate, Tinfow wrote in the statement.
The notices to vacate were rescinded
Monday, Aug. 17.
She negotiated with the attorney for
Pacific Skies Estates Carol McDermott to
reach the deal.
We will also be finalizing our rental
assistance program for residents in the
next couple of days and are hopeful with
the cooperation of residents that we can
find good housing accommodations for
the tenants who seek our assistance,
McDermott told the Daily Journal
Thursday.
Many of the tenants showed up to the

Pacifica City Council meeting Monday,
Aug. 10, to share their stories.
At least 22 notices of termination were
sent to residents of Pacific Skies Estates,
on the coast in Pacifica, and were told to
vacate by Oct. 1.
The owners are replacing older mobile
homes, 93, with newer pre-fabricated
homes.
Some tenants fear though that the rents
will nearly double and that they will no

Rehabilitation work has been proposed for San Mateos downtown post office,a landmark on the National Register of Historic Places.
The future is looking much brighter for local high school

students whose path to higher education was previously

biggest maritime disasters off Florida.

Now its turning out to be a treasure
trove.
In June, a family of treasurer hunters
found $1 million in gold coins in area
south of the latest discovery.
The latest group of treasure hunters to
find millions of dollars in gold coins from
the 1715 Fleet shipwrecks said they
believe magic has played a role in the
discoveries this summer, coming on the
300th anniversary of the sinking of
Spanish colonial galleons.
We all enjoy doing this and we all
know the odds when were out there are
finding nothing, Martinez said. To be
able to go and do that, and then succeed in
something like that, is more than any
treasure.
They expect more discoveries to come,
with $400 million in coins still undiscovered in a coastal area stretching from
Melbourne to Fort Pierce, known as
Floridas Treasure Coast.
Five years ago, before I got into this
business, I would have told you that
magic is in fairy tales, said Brent
Brisben, whose salvage company, Queens
Jewels, owns rights to the 1715 Fleet
shipwreck site.
I truly now believe that there is an
energy that pervades these shipwrecks,
that I cant quantify. I truly believe that
these shipwrecks wanted their story to
continue, that this magically happened on
this anniversary because this story still
needs to be told and its currently unfolding.

Bartlett had just started exploring a 300year-old shipwreck with a metal detector
late last month in the waters off Floridas
Atlantic Coast when he found his first
Spanish gold coin. Then one coin became
two and two became so many he had to
stuff them into his diving glove.
When he resurfaced, every fingertip
was stacked with gold coins, and we
knew then we were into something super
special, the captain of his boat, Jonah
Martinez, said Thursday.
Over the next two days, Martinez,
Bartlett and another treasure hunter, Dan
Beckingham, found 350 coins worth $4.5
million, the most valuable find from the
1715 shipwreck site in recent decades.
Eleven treasure-laden ships that made
up the 1715 Fleet were heading to Spain
from Havana on July 31, 1715, when they
encountered a hurricane off Floridas central coast. The winds and waves smashed
the ships onto reefs, claiming as many as

Community rallies behind

Worker Resource Center
San Mateos day labor site gets boost from commission, some raise concern
By Samantha Weigel
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
The fate of San Mateos worker resource

center that provides a safe haven for day
laborers and potential employers will make its
way to the City Council after the Community
Relations Commission opted to support the
nonprofit-managed site despite concerns from
some neighbors.
The commission gathered at a packed meeting Wednesday to discuss extending the citys
long-standing contract with Samaritan House,
which provides services for workers in an
effort to deter people from soliciting for jobs
on the street.
Creating the center was originally prompted
by neighborhood complaints over impacts
such as litter, public urination and safety hazards created by hundreds of day laborers gathering near downtown.
Instead, the city offered its site at the corner
of Fifth and Railroad avenues while partnering with the nonprofit to provide a place for
workers to connect with employers while providing other services such as food, job training and county-provided medical care.
The model we use is used all across
California and is considered successful when
you have at least half the workers off the
street, said Samaritan House CEO Bart
Charlow. These are people who are desperate, theyre poor and theyre working very
hard. And I tell you, no matter how hard they
work, their lives are very hard. And in any
way shape or form, closing the center will
make their lives harder.
The commission voted 4-0 to recommend
the City Council approve a two-year operating
agreement with Samaritan House while considering adding performance metrics to judge
the efficacy of the center.
Ultimately, the council will decide whether
to continue its contract while its site, purchased with redevelopment agency funds, is
likely slated for redevelopment in the coming
years, according to staff.
My main concern here is the fact that
although the population is trending down, my
concern is to close the center immediately, or
in a short period, that population would still
be going on the street, said Commissioner
California bill aims to warn

consumers about recording TVs
SACRAMENTO Readers who scanned
the user manual for a new Samsung smart TV
may have been surprised to learn their household conversations could be recorded without
their knowledge.
State Assemblyman Mike Gatto certainly
was.
The passage was almost word-for-word
comparable to a passage of the book 1984,
Gatto, D-Glendale, said, referring to a line in the
privacy policy that said conversations, including personal or sensitive information, could be
captured and transmitted to a third party if users
turned on wireless voice recognition.
After taking a lashing in the media and online,
the company changed its policy and the user
manuals in February. Samsung now says it will
only record voice commands if a user clicks an
activation button and talks into the remote or a
microphone.
Still, Orwellian anxieties have already taken
hold, and Gattos Committee on Privacy and
Consumer Protection is pushing a bill to rein in
spying TVs before the problem becomes worse.
His AB1116 is the first legislation of its kind
in the United States, according to the National
Conference of State Legislatures. After unanimous passage in the Assembly, the bill now
goes before the full Senate before the
Legislature finishes on Sept. 11.
It would require that users be explicitly
informed when their smart TVs are installed
that the devices could start collecting conversations.
It also forbids TV manufacturers and related
third parties from using or selling stored con-

Randy Torrijos. I agree we need to look for a
better option, but it seems to me thats going
to happen regardless.
A coalition of about 10 to 12 residents in the
Central neighborhood adamantly opposed the
city continuing to fund the center to the tune
of nearly $250,000 a year between operating
and police staffing costs, as attendance has
declined since it first opened in 2003.
The Worker Resource Center is failing, it
does not achieve its goals and is extraordinarily expensive, said Todd Murtha, a 12-year
resident who represented the Central neighborhood coalition.
Murtha said the citys data shows fewer
workers are using the center than ever before
and officials should begin phasing its closure
while allocating the money to other services
such as police. Acknowledging that having a
center may be the right thing to do, an ineffective center isnt worth the cost, Murtha
said.
If this were a business, wed say its a
death spiral, Murtha said during a
PowerPoint presentation he gave at the meeting. In terms of government spending, the
Worker Resource Center is really the classic
$30,000 toilet.
Yet other nearby residents recalled life
before the center, said helping people is about
more than dollars and cents, and noted it could
be difficult to relocate as it was challenging to
find a suitable location in the first place.
We worked really hard on finding the right
place for the center and I was very happy that
my city had a heart and cared about people
that are less fortunate, said Clare Bouquet,
who served on the committee that helped
organize the center. It would break my heart
if the city pulled the rug out from under
them.
Several residents, Samaritan House volunteers and employees spoke favorably about
the center, while noting they need volunteers
to help it reinstate its English language courses.
Carlos Chavez said hes volunteered at and

versations for advertising purposes, and would
allow manufacturers to reject law enforcement
efforts to use the feature to monitor conversations.
Samsung declined to answer questions from
The Associated Press but said in a written statement that it supports Gattos legislation.
Protecting our consumers privacy is one of
our top priorities. Our TVs are designed with
privacy in mind, the company said in a written
statement.
Community colleges could

require sexual assault disclosures
SACRAMENTO The California Senate
has approved legislation requiring community
college applicants to disclose if theyve been
previously expelled for sexual assault.
Transfer students would also need to share if
they were expelled for rape or sexual battery at
other schools or are currently undergoing an
expulsion review.
Local community college governing boards
would have hearings to decide whether to admit
those students.
The Senate approved AB969 by Democratic
Assemblyman Das Williams of Carpinteria
Thursday on a 35-0 vote, sending it to the governor.
The bill was amended so it no longer requires
students to disclose if they were suspended for
sexual assault at another school.
Democratic Senator Hannah Beth Jackson of
Santa Barbara says its important that the bill
applies to school disciplinary action and not
criminal action.
brought donations to the Worker Resource

Center. As an immigrant from El Salvador,
Chavez said the day laborers and the work
thats conducted at the center are vital components of what it means to be an American.
I think life is not just about statistics and
opinions, especially negative opinions. I think
this country is great because its a country of
diversity and we all have a beginning,
Chavez said. These are lives. Day laborers are part of the community.
Josh and Ianthina Hugg also recollected
what life was like before the center provided
people with a place to seek work. The couple
noted how crowded the streets near their
home and the entrance to downtown used to
be.
Just coming in to downtown, any outsider
would see that and be taken aback. I see the
Worker Resource Center as being successful
in that its really created a win-win in so many
ways. It also provides a place where people
can come and grow beyond their current situations, Josh Hugg said, adding he hopes the
city will continue to serve this vulnerable
community that lives within our community.
They are part of our community. Particularly
in these hard times, itd difficult to be poor in
San Mateo County. Let us continue to be a
ray of hope for those people.

Sen. Jerry Hill seeks to increase

State Sen. Jerry Hill, D-San Mateo, introduced legislation Thursday to raise the cap on

tricts to maintain ample
reserves by increasing the current cap from 6
percent to 17 percent.
Before last years last minute budget package addition, the average cap was 30 percent,
according to Hills office.
When the governor presented his budget in
January, he said that the school reserve cap
issue should be addressed, Hill said in a press
release. This bill represents the compromise
we could have achieved had there been an
opportunity for negotiation last year when the
school reserve cap language appeared on a
trailer bill.
The new proposal received bipartisan support with 16 legislators co-authoring the bill,
according to Hills office.

Wildfires wreak havoc in Washington

By Brian Skoloff

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
TWISP, Wash. The firefighters

members of a specially trained
unit that is sent into danger ahead of
everyone else to size up a wildfire
rushed up a narrow, winding gravel
road with steep hills on either side.
It proved to be a deathtrap.
Their vehicle crashed, and before
they could escape, flames rolled over
them, killing three firefighters inside
and injuring four others nearby, one
critically, authorities said.
The tragedy Wednesday night cast
a pall in Washington state and
brought to 13 the number of firefighters killed across the West this
year during one of the driest and
most explosive wildfire seasons on
record.
The blazes have burned a big
hole in our states heart, Gov. Jay
Inslee lamented Thursday, describing the outbreak as an unprecedented cataclysm.
These are three big heroes protecting small towns, the governor
said, urging residents to thank a
firefighter.
Fire officials with notebooks and
cameras walked the hills and banks
near Woods Canyon Road outside
Twisp, investigating how the disaster
happened. Authorities gave few

1,300 people in the outdoor-recreation communities of Twisp and
Winthrop to evacuate.
It was a nightmare, Okanogan
County Sheriff Frank Rogers said.
Everything was burning. He
added, We know it was a firestorm
in there.
All the dead were U.S. Forest
details, shedding no light, for example, on the crash, other than to say
that it was not the accident itself that
killed the victims, but the fire.
The deaths happened in the scenic
Methow River valley about 115
miles northeast of Seattle, where a
series of blazes covering close to 140
square miles had merged. The flames
burned an undetermined number of
Service firefighters. The agency

identified them as Tom Zbyszewski,
20; Andrew Zajac, 26; and Richard
Wheeler, 31. Their hometowns
werent immediately released.
Zbyszewski was a junior at
Whitman College in Walla Walla,
majoring in physics and active in the
schools theater department, the colleges president said in a statement.
Study sees dying wildlife, bigger fires if drought lasts

By Ellen Knickmeyer
SAN FRANCISCO The carcasses of salmon, trout and more

than a dozen other newly extinct
native species lie in dry streambeds
around California.
Exhausted firefighters in the
Sierra Nevada battle some of the
biggest wildfires theyve ever seen.
And in Central Valley farm towns,
more and more parents hear the

Court rejects Oakland lawsuit
over marijuana dispensary
SAN FRANCISCO The federal
governments decision to try to seize
the property of a large medical marijuana dispensary cannot be secondguessed by a court, a federal appeals
court ruled Thursday as it rejected a
lawsuit by a California city that
wants to keep the dispensary open.
The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of
Appeals said prosecutors have discretion to bring the type of civil forfeiture action they are pursuing
against Harborside Health Center in
Oakland, and a separate procedure
exists to challenge those decisions.
The court affirmed a lower court ruling dismissing the citys lawsuit
against the attorney general and U.S.
attorney for Northern California.
A representative of the city attorneys office did not immediately
comment. Harborside bills itself as
the nations largest medical marijuana dispensary.
U.S. Attorney Melinda Haag said
at the time she began the process to
seize Harborsides property in 2012
that Harborside violated federal law
by selling marijuana, even though
medical marijuana was legal in
California.

Group says Covered

California slow to fix
customer problems
By Judy Lin
SACRAMENTO Californias
health insurance exchange is still
sluggish when it comes to resolving
customer service problems, leaving
many people unable to access health
care or finalize their tax returns, a
consumer advocacy group said
Thursday.
Covered California has been slow
to fix enrollment mistakes entered
into its computer system, according
to the Health Consumer Alliance,
which is made up of legal aid
groups throughout the state.
Exchange staff has a limited ability to update a state computer program for determining whether people are eligible to enroll in Covered
California or in Medi-Cal, the
states low-income health program,
the group says.
Covered Californias executive

director, Peter Lee, responded
Thursday at the board meeting that
a very small percentage of customers file appeals when they are
rejected, and the exchange is committed to resolving problems quickly. Since March, the agency says it
has added staff to try to resolve disputes informally without having to
go through an administrative law
proceeding.
We still have work to do, Lee
said.
The agency will provide a
detailed report on the number of
appeals and their status at the next
board meeting in October, he said.
The alliance also claims Covered
California has failed to correct tax
subsidy forms in a timely manner,
preventing people from getting tax
credits or amending their taxes. For
example, advocates said a woman

from the Inland Empire has not
been able to correct her tax subsidy
form since Jan. 28.
We are concerned that public
support for the (Affordable Care
Act) will erode as more and more
consumers encounter these types of
tax problems and face exposure to
IRS debts and penalties, the group
wrote in a letter to exchange board
members this week.
Covered California said it is looking to troubleshoot information
technology problems so staff can

make changes directly rather than
having to file help desk tickets that
can take weeks to resolve.
Accenture won a $359 million contract in 2012 to build and maintain
the states online platform for health
insurance programs called the
California Healthcare Eligibility,
Enrollment, and Retention System,
or CalHEERS.
The challenges with big IT, it
does not necessarily mean nimble
IT, Lee said. Were working to

speed those up. But the issue of having effective and as prompt as possible resolution to appeals is something we take very seriously.
Jen Flory of the Western Center
on Law and Poverty, a member of
the alliance, said she was pleased to
hear the exchange set a goal of midSeptember to resolve tax forms but
worried two years remains too long
for some CalHEERS system fixes.

Poll: Majority in U.S. wants govt to curb prescription costs

By Ricardo Alonso-Zaldivar
WASHINGTON Move over,

Obamacare. A new poll finds
Americans worried about medication costs and broadly supporting
government action to curb drug
prescription prices.
Overall, 72 percent said the cost
of prescription medications is
unreasonable,
according
to
Thursdays poll from the nonpartisan Kaiser Family Foundation.
Regardless of party affiliation,
large majorities support requiring
pharmaceutical companies to disclose how they set prices (86 percent); allowing Medicare to negotiate drug prices on behalf of ben-
eficiaries (83 percent); limiting

what drug companies can charge
for medications to treat serious illnesses (76 percent); and allowing
consumers to get prescriptions
filled by pharmacies in Canada (72
percent).
The 2016 presidential candidates
continue to debate President
Barack Obamas 5-year-old law
expanding coverage for the uninsured, but the survey suggests the
public has other priorities.
The public is more focused on
consumer issues like the price of
drugs and out-of-pocket costs than
the continuing political battles
over the health care law, said
Drew Altman, president of the
foundation, a clearinghouse for
information on the health care system.

The Pharmaceutical Research
and Manufacturers of America
argues that government price controls would stifle an innovative
industry that is delivering cures for
life-threatening illnesses and
allowing many people with chronic
disease to lead productive lives.

Cheating website subscribers
included White House, Congress workers
WASHINGTON Hundreds of U.S. government employees including some with sensitive jobs in the White House,
Congress and law enforcement agencies used Internet connections in their federal offices to access and pay membership
fees to the cheating website Ashley Madison, the Associated
Press has learned.
The AP traced many of the accounts exposed by hackers
back to federal workers. They included at least two assistant
U.S. attorneys; an information technology administrator in the
Executive Office of the President; a division chief, an investigator and a trial attorney in the Justice Department; a government hacker at the Homeland Security Department and another DHS employee who indicated he worked on a U.S. counterterrorism response team.
Few actually paid for their services with their government
email accounts. But AP traced their government Internet connections logged by the website over five years and
reviewed their credit-card transactions to identify them. They
included workers at more than two dozen Obama administration agencies, including the departments of State, Defense,
Justice, Energy, Treasury, Transportation and Homeland
Security. Others came from House or Senate computer networks.
The AP is not naming the government subscribers it found
because they are not elected officials or accused of a crime.
Hackers this week released detailed records on millions of
people registered with the website one month after the breakin at Ashley Madisons parent company, Toronto-based Avid
Life Media Inc. The website whose slogan is, Life is short.
Have an affair is marketed to facilitate extramarital affairs.
Florida woman says she

secretly recorded Jared Fogle
INDIANAPOLIS A Florida woman says former Subway
pitchman Jared Fogle told her years ago about his interest in
having sex with minors and that she went to authorities who
told her to record the conversations.
Rochelle Herman-Walrond, a former journalist, told media
outlets she wore a wire to record conversations of Fogle, who
agreed Wednesday to plead guilty to allegations that he paid
for sex acts with girls as young as 16 and received child
pornography produced by the former director of his charitable
foundation.
It is unclear how Herman-Walrond knew Fogle. The
Associated Press could not reach her for comment. Authorities
in Indiana who handled the investigation into Fogle would not
confirm whether she was involved in their case, but they have
said their investigation began several months ago based on a
tip to Indiana State Police regarding Russell Taylor, the thenexecutive director of the Jared Foundation.
However, Fogles plea agreement does mention that witnesses in Florida, Georgia and Washington state provided
recordings and information it says show Fogle repeatedly discussed with them his interest in engaging in commercial sex
acts with minors or stated that he has done so in the past. It
says the recordings were produced beginning in or about
2007 and continuing thereafter.
The suburban Indianapolis man is expected to enter a formal
plea at a later date to one count each of traveling to engage in
illicit sexual conduct with a minor and distribution and receipt
of child pornography.
Feeling the heat: Earth in July

was hottest month on record
By Seth Borenstein
WASHINGTON Earth just keeps

getting hotter. July was the planets
warmest month on record, smashing old
marks, U.S. weather officials said.
And its almost a dead certain lock
that this year will beat last year as the
warmest year on record, they said.
Julys average temperature was 61.86
degrees Fahrenheit, beating the previous
global mark set in 1998 and 2010 by
about one-seventh of a degree, according to figures released Thursday by the
National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration.
Thats a large margin for weather
records, with previous monthly heat
records broken by a 20th of a degree or
less.
It just reaffirms what we already
know: that the Earth is warming, said
NOAA climate scientist Jake Crouch.
The warming is accelerating and were
really seeing it this year.
NOAA records go back to 1880.
Separate calculations by NASA and the
Japanese weather agency also found
July 2015 to be a record.
The first seven months of 2015 were
the hottest January-to-July span on
record, according to NOAA. The sevenmonth average temperature of 58.43
degrees is 1.53 degrees warmer than the
REUTERS
People crowd on a beach to escape the heat in Dalian, Liaoning province, China.
20th-century average and a sixth of a
degree warmer than the old record set in
2010.
Given that the temperatures have
already been so high already especially the oceans, which are slow to cool
NOAA climate scientist Jessica
Blunden said she is 99 percent certain
that 2015 will be the hottest on record
for the globe. The oceans would have to
cool dramatically to prevent it, and they
are trending warmer, not cooler, she
said.

Obama Iran deal gains Dems

backing heading toward vote
By Erica Werner
WASHINGTON President
Barack Obamas nuclear deal with
Iran is picking up crucial support
from swing-state Senate Democrats
despite Republican opposition
heightened by revelations of a secret
side-agreement between Iran and
the U.N. agency that inspects
nuclear facilities.
On Thursday, Sen. Claire
McCaskill, D-Mo., became the latest to declare her backing, saying in
a statement: This deal isnt perfect
and no one trusts Iran, but it has
become clear to me that the world is
united behind this agreement with
the exception of the government of
Israel.
McCaskills
announcement
followed a similar declaration a
day earlier from
Sen.
Joe
Donnelly,
DInd., who said:
I am willing to
Barack Obama give this agreement the opportunity to succeed.
Their support brings to 26 the
number of Senate Democrats
whove come out in favor of the
agreement aimed at dismantling
Irans nuclear program in exchange
for billions in sanctions relief.
Supporters now include 10 of the 12
members on the Democratic side of

Committee.

against its indispensable backer.

Republic, their

dont like Irans
ability to delay
inspections in
some locations;
the speed with

Israeli army: Four rockets from Syria hit Israel

By Ian Deitch
JERUSALEM Militants in Syria fired several rockets

into northern Israel on Thursday afternoon, prompting Israeli
retaliatory fire, the military said the first time since the
1973 Mideast war that rockets from Syrian territory have
slammed into Israel.
A total of four rockets exploded in an open field in northern
Galilee, where sirens warned residents of the incoming projectiles. The rockets sparked small fires but caused no injuries.
The Israeli military said it responded to the attack by targeting 14 Syrian military posts in the Golan Heights, the strategic
plateau that Israel captured from Syria in the 1967 Mideast
war. Despite constant hostility between the two countries,
Syrias leaders have been careful to keep the border mostly
quiet since the 1973 war, though Syrias conflict has renewed
tensions in the Golan Heights.
Israels military said the rockets were fired by the Iranbacked Islamic Jihad group. There was no immediate claim of
responsibility for the attack.
Israel also said it holds the Syrian government responsible
for attacks emanating from Syria. Sporadic mortar shells and
gunfire have hit Israel on several occasions since the Syrian
conflict broke out in 2011, but this was the first time rockets
were used.
In southern Syria, an opposition activist said Israeli tanks
fired at least four shells at Syrian army and pro-government
positions. The activist, who goes by the name of Abu Omar alGolani, said the shells hit near the Syrian town of Baath and
the village of Khan Arnabeh.
Syrias state run news agency SANA later said that an Israeli
helicopter fired several missiles inside Syria, targeting the
governorate building in Quneitra but that the strikes caused
only material damage.
Israel and Syria are bitter enemies, and Israel has avoided
taking sides in the Syrian civil war, which pits President
Bashar Assads government against an array of militants,
including the brutal Islamic State group, which has imposed a
violent interpretation of Islamic law, or Shariah, on the parts of
Syria and Iraq it now controls.
Still, Israel provides free medical treatment at Israeli hospitals for Syrians wounded in the fighting that reach its frontier.
Israel has responded occasionally to attacks from Syria. It
says some of the attacks have been accidental spillover from
the conflict next door while others have been intentionally
aimed at Israeli civilians and soldiers.
Later Thursday, an Israeli military official speaking anonymously in line with protocol said that an Iranian military commander orchestrated the attack.
The attack was a clearly intentional one, he said.
For us this is a clear act of aggression meant by the Iranians
to use the chaos in Syria to escalate tensions in the region, he
said.
Tensions rise in
Korea as shells
fired over DMZ
By Eric Talmadge
PYONGYANG, North Korea South Korea fired dozens

of shells Thursday at rival North Korea after the North lobbed
several rounds across the worlds most heavily armed border
and threatened to take further action unless Seoul ends its
loudspeaker broadcasts. The North denied it fired any shots
and warned of retaliation for what it called a serious provocation.
Officials in Seoul said the North fired across the
Demilitarized Zone to back up an earlier threat to attack South
Korean border loudspeakers that, after a lull of 11 years, have
started broadcasting anti-Pyongyang propaganda. But the
Supreme Headquarters of the Korean Peoples Army issued a
statement later Thursday denying it had launched any shots at
the South.
Using the pretext that our forces fired one shell to the
south, which is not true, it made reckless moves by firing 36
shells at our military posts, said the statement, published in
Korean by the Norths state media. It said the shells landed
near four military posts, but caused no injuries.
This reckless shelling incident is a serious military provocation to our sacred territory and military posts which is intolerable, it said.
The broadcasts began after South Korea accused the North
of planting land mines that maimed two South Korean soldiers
earlier this month.
North Korea first fired a single round believed to be from an
anti- aircraft gun, which landed at a South Korean border town
on Thursday afternoon. About 20 minutes later, several more
artillery shells fell on the southern side of the Demilitarized
Zone dividing the two Koreas.
South Korea responded with dozens of 155-milimeter
artillery rounds, according to South Korean defense officials.

NEW YORK The U.S. stock market endured its worst performance in 18
months on Thursday, driven lower by
another slump in Chinese shares and
heavy selling by technical traders.
The global rout started in China,
where sharp declines in energy and
property stocks pushed the Shanghai
Composite down more than 3 percent.
That selling soon spread to European
and U.S. markets, where the Standard &
Poors 500 index moved further below a
closely watched trading level.
Investors, facing screens full of red,
retreated to their usual places of safety:
bonds, gold and cash.
The emerging markets really got
slammed overnight and that quickly
spread to the rest of the world, said J.J.
Kinahan, chief strategist at TD
Ameritrade.
The Dow Jones industrial average
plunged 358.04 points, or 2.1 percent, to
16,990.69. The S&P 500 dropped 43.88
points, or 2.1 percent, to 2,035.73 and
the Nasdaq composite lost 141.56
points, or 2.8 percent, to 4,877.49.
It was the biggest percentage decline
for the Dow and S&P 500 since
February 2014. The blue chip index is
now at its lowest level since October
2014.
Buyers of stocks were few and far

between. Selling outweighed buying by
a ratio of more than eight to one in heavy
trading. Still, even with the sell-off, the
S&P 500 was down just 4.5 percent from
its record close of 2,130.82 on May 21.
As the selling picked up Thursday,
investors moved money to traditional
havens in times of uncertainty.
Gold rose $25.30, or 2.2 percent, to
$1,153.20 an ounce, the metals best day
since April. Demand for ultra-safe U.S.
government bonds rose, pulling down
the yield on the benchmark 10-year
Treasury note to 2.07 percent from 2.13
late Wednesday. The 10-years yield
stood at 2.19 percent only two days
before, and its decline since then represents a major decline.
Worries over China, the worlds second-largest
economy,
spurred
Thursdays losses. The Shanghai
Composite Index dropped 3.4 percent.
Chinese shares have had a wild ride this
week and that has raised questions about
Beijings ability to stabilize the market
and the devaluation of that nations currency.
The move has caused other countries
to devalue their own currencies, notably
oil-rich Kazakhstan and the manufacturing hub of Vietnam.
Strategists and traders, noting the lack
of major U.S. economic news on
Thursday, said the drop in stocks was
HP revenue and profit slide,

stock falls on weak forecast
By Brandon Bailey
SAN FRANCISCO HewlettPackard Co. reported sales and profit fell

in the last quarter, and its stock slipped
further in late trading Thursday after the
giant computer-maker issued a forecast
for the October quarter that was lower
than Wall Street expected.
The results showed HP is still struggling with a host of challenges as it prepares to split into two companies later this
year.
HP reported net income of $854 million
for its fiscal third quarter, down 13 percent
from a year earlier, as sales fell 8 percent
to $25.35 billion. The company has seen
year-over-year revenue declines in all but

one quarter for the last four years.
Earnings for the quarter, which ended
July 31, were slightly better than Wall
Street estimates. HP said its earnings
amounted to 47 cents per diluted share, or
88 cents per diluted share after adjusting
for one-time gains and costs. The average
estimate of 13 analysts surveyed by Zacks
Investment Research was for adjusted
earnings of 85 cents per share.
Revenue fell short of analysts expectations, however. Eleven analysts surveyed
by Zacks expected $25.64 billion.
HP, based in Palo Alto is one of the
worlds leading sellers of personal computers, printers, commercial data center
hardware and tech services. But after sev-
eral years of weak performance, the company is spending billions of dollars on

restructuring as it prepares to split into
two separate corporations one focused
on PCs and printers, and the other selling
commercial tech products.
CEO Meg Whitman contends the split
will leave each spinoff in better position to
compete in their respective markets.
HP has been shaken by several years of
management turnover and major shifts in
the tech market. Consumers are buying
fewer PCs and printers, while business
customers are shifting to a cloud computing model that lowers the cost of software and reduces the need for massive, inhouse computer centers to run their operations.
Netflix facing protests over DVD-less baby benefit policy

By Michael Liedtke
SAN FRANCISCO Netflix is getting jeered for excluding the employees in

its DVD-by-mail service from a recently
introduced benefit that gives up to a year
of paid leave to most of its workers after
the birth or adoption of a baby.
At least three online petitions posted by
activist groups are urging Netflix to
extend the baby benefit beyond the rough-
ly 2,000 workers in the Internet video

service that generates most of its revenue.
Netflix has about 450 temporary, partand full-time employees in its steadily
shrinking but still profitable DVD division.
The protesting groups contend Netflix
is unfairly favoring the mostly high-paid
computer programmers and other technology specialists working in its Internet
video service over the lower-paid employees who sort through discs and stuff
envelopes in the distribution centers that

receive and send DVDs.
Many of the DVD workers are paid by
the hour and make a fraction of the sixfigure salaries doled out to many of the
Internet video service employees. Netflix
pay varies widely, ranging from $15 per
hour for customer-service representatives
to more than $200,000 annually for software engineers, according to information
shared by company workers on employer
review website Glassdoor.com.
also likely tied to programmed selling,

which came after the S&P 500 moved
below one of its most closely watched
indicators, a 200-day moving average.
While many investors buy and sell
stocks based on a companys business
outlook, there is a different class of trader who relies on such technical indicators to make investment decisions.
I see this drop as likely because we
crossed the 200-day moving average,
and thats causing us to have further selling, said Scott Wren, chief global equity strategist at the Wells Fargo
Investment Institute.
Media stocks were hit particularly
hard. Walt Disney shares fell $6.43, or 6
percent, to $100.02. Analysts are concerned that viewers are moving away
from cable, which could hurt lucrative
Disney properties such as ESPN.
Viacom, owner of CBS, fell 6 percent
as well while Twenty-First Century Fox
slipped 4 percent.
The years biggest winners also were
hit hard, possibly a sign that investors
feel the seven-year bull market for
stocks might be slowing down. Netflix,
which is up about 130 percent since
January, fell 8 percent. Gilead Sciences
dipped 3 percent and Google declined 2
percent.
The price of benchmark U.S. oil rose
slightly but remains near its low point of
March 2009.
Business briefs
Gap maintains forecast as 2Q profit falls
NEW YORK Gap is keeping its fiscal-year profit forecast
unchanged after further struggles in the second quarter marked
by weakness at its namesake and Banana Republic stores that
offset rising sales at Old Navy.
The San Francisco company also said Thursday its plan to
close 175 Gap stores in North America, as well as some locations in Europe, will cost a bit less than it expected.
During the quarter, the company said it would close some
Gap locations as it tries to strengthen the brand, with most of
the closures coming by the end of January. It closed 26 of those
stores over the three months that ended on Aug. 1 and opened
six more. The company will also eliminate 250 positions at its
headquarters. Gap now expects $130 million to $140 million in
charges connected to those moves, down from an estimate of
$140 million to $160 million.
Gap Inc. said it expects to earn between $2.75 and $2.80 per
share for the year. Analysts expect $2.74 per share on average,
according to FactSet.
The stock slipped 3 cents to $33.63 in extended trading following the release of the earnings report.
Twitters stock falls below

IPO price on user growth worries
NEW YORK Twitters battered shares dipped below their
IPO price on Thursday as investors worry about the companys
ability to grow its user base.
Shares of the San Francisco-based short messaging service
fell 5.8 percent to close at $26, after trading as low as $25.92
during the day amid a broader market decline.
Twitter went public in November 2013 at an initial public
offering price of $26 per share.
The stock is down 29 percent since Twitters July 28 earnings
report, when it warned that boosting its user growth rate will
take a long time.
The challenge for Twitter is broadening the appeal of its service to the mass market amid fierce competition from Facebook
as well as messaging apps like WhatsApp or Snapchat.

Byrd shores up outfield

acquired outfielder Marlon Byrd and cash
Thursday from the Cincinnati Reds to boost
their injury-plagued outfield for the stretch
run.
A day after losing out on second baseman
Chase Utley, whom the Philadelphia Phillies
traded to the NL West-leading Los Angeles
Dodgers, the defending World Series champions made their own move to replenish an
outfield that has dealt with injuries to all
three starters.
San Francisco trailed the Dodgers by two
games at the start of the day.
Center fielder Angel Pagan is on the 15day disabled list with an injured right knee.
Left fielder Nori Aoki came off the sevenday concussion list Thursday ahead of the
series opener at Pittsburgh but right fielder
Hunter Pence went on the DL with a strained

left oblique.
Im excited, Giants manager Bruce
Bochy said. Marlon is a real pro who
knows how to play the game and, most
importantly, gives us a much-needed bat.

49ers Hayne continues to make NFL strides

By Janie McCauley
SANTA CLARA Jarryd

Hayne certainly had no intention
of inducing a collective laugh
when it came to his thoughts on the
fair catch in football.
You stick your hand in the air
and they cant touch you, he said,
straight-faced.
The former Australian rugby
league star is coolly making his
way through an impressive first
training camp with the San
Francisco 49ers, showing that just
maybe he can prove everybody
wrong and earn a spot on the 53man roster.
With a little unintentional humor
mixed in to boot.
The 27-year-old rookie is saying
all the right things, too: Hes far
from polished, is still learning
every day and wants to improve
each week. No bold predictions
about his standing, either.
Haynes next chance in a game
situation Sunday against the Dallas
Cowboys will be another opportunity to build off quite a preseason
debut last weekend at Houston. He
had a 53-yard run early in the second quarter of a 23-10 loss
Saturday night to the Texans and
five carries for 63 yards in all. In
addition, there was his 33-yard
kickoff return and a pair of punt
returns totaling 24 yards.
I felt comfortable out there, and
I think it showed, Hayne said
Thursday. I was always confi-

joy in it.
dent. For me, I didnt need a play

to have that confidence. Its one of
those things, with good or bad, I
knew that I always was going to
have to work on something.
Hayne has never doubted he
could make the daunting switch
from rugby to football, even given
the increased contact involved for
a man who just pulled pads on for
the first time earlier this month to
take his first training camp hit.
While Hayne knows he might
have to fair catch at some point, he
trusts his instincts and ability to
catch the ball and get away.
I had opportunities to do it, but
I backed my ability, he said. I
felt comfortable being able to
catch the ball and get out of the
way.
49ers special teams coordinator
Thomas McGaughey Jr. loves that
fearless nature. He and coach
Jim Tomsula saw glimpses of that
in watching hours of rugby game
film to scout Hayne.
Weve got to find out what we
have and if we take a knee well
never find out, McGaughey said
of Haynes returns. You obviously want to make smart decisions,
but Jarryd is fearless. Thats one of
the characteristics that it takes to
be a great punt returner. Its fun
when you see a guy that can make
that first guy miss and hes not
scared because hes very, very
comfortable fielding the ball and
when you have that fearlessness it
definitely gives you an edge on
your opponent.
Hayne spent the past nine years

from 2006-14 with the
Parramatta Eels of the Australian
National Rugby League before
deciding to make this move. He is

a big deal back home, everyone

Darren Sanders was acquitted of

second-degree assault and a fourthdegree sex offense stemming from
accusations that he inappropriately
touched a woman who works for a
cleaning crew contracted with M&T
Bank Stadium after a game in
December.
The woman told jurors that Sanders
appeared drunk and touched her buttocks multiple times despite her repeat-
ed requests that he stop. The

Associated Press generally doesnt
identify alleged victims of sexual
assault.
Sanders denied the allegations and
told jurors the worker approached him
and asked for his phone number, but he
rebuffed her advances. Sanders said he
never touched the woman.
Its a shame Mr. Sanders had to go
through all this, said Andy Alperstein,
Sanders attorney. It was a very difficult time for him and his family, and
were very pleased the right thing happened.
During closing arguments Thursday,
prosecutor Gavin Patashnick told
jurors that the trial revolved primarily
around power, and that Sanders, a man
in an important position for a high-profile corporation, leveraged his influence to exploit a hard-working woman
who was vulnerable.

But Alperstein told jurors that
Sanders didnt do a darn thing and
has nothing to hide.
When people make things up, they
make it up for a reason, Alperstein
said. This woman thinks shes found
her lottery ticket.
The trial lasted three days, with the
fourth day dedicated to closing arguments and jury deliberation.
Whether others will follow his

path, Hayne isnt sure. Nor does he
have time at the moment to reflect
much on his previous life.
If they can play like Jarryd,
McGaughey said, they might
have a shot.

Ponder expects boos in his return to Minnesota

By Josh Dubow
terback everyone expected him to be when he

came here, but with that being said, there isnt
a better professional out there than Christian,
said Vikings tight end Kyle Rudolph, one of
Ponders closest friends on the team. He goes
about his business, he takes care of his work
and he prepares each and every day as if hes
the starter on Sunday. Christian will be around
this league for a long time because of that, and
hell have plenty of opportunities to be on his
teams because of his work ethic and the way
he prepares himself.
NAPA Christian Ponder is under no illusions about what kind of reaction hell get
when he returns to Minnesota.
I would expect some boos probably,
Ponder said.
Ponder even joked that he might even
respond to the expected harsh treatment with
a bow when he takes on the Vikings in an
exhibition game for the Oakland Raiders on
Friday night.
The game comes just over four years after
the Vikings selected Ponder 12th overall,
three years after he helped take Minnesota to
the playoffs and two years after he lost his
starting job.
Its been a rapid fall for Ponder from potential quarterback of the future in Minnesota to
likely clipboard holder in Oakland as the
backup to Derek Carr. Ponder accepts the
blame for his struggles.
I just didnt play well, he said. I didnt
play as well as I should have. (Matt) Cassel
did well when he stepped in when I got hurt
and they had a different plan going forward.
Its unfortunate it didnt work out. I missed
that opportunity but thats in the past. Im taking advantage of my chance here.
Ponder has fared well so far, running with
the first team for much of the offseason program while Carr dealt with an injury and
throwing a touchdown pass in the exhibition
opener for Oakland last week against the St.
Louis Rams.
Ponder also serves as a valuable sounding
board for a second-year player in Carr, having
gone through many of the same experiences
that Carr will face this season.
Ponder became a free agent after the season

and knew he needed to find a new home. He
quickly ended up in Oakland, where he was
reunited with offensive coordinator Bill
Musgrave, who had that same position for
Ponders first three years with the Vikings.
KIRBY LEE/USA TODAY SPORTS
Christian Ponder spent his first four years with the Minnesota Vikings, spending two years as
a starter. He signed with the Raiders as a free agent.
Hes been here to help and here to compete
every day, Carr said. I think weve played
30 to 40 games of ping pong, competing
against each other. Those are good things. Its
not like were going to go our separate ways
and not help each other. During the games,
hes there to ask questions, if I ask him about
a cornerback, hell say, Yeah, he did this. Its
very easy for us to have a conversation. We
get along great and I love having him.

arriving with such promise after his college
career at Florida State. He started the final 10

Cards draw on deep reservoir of talent to lead baseball

By R.B. Fallstrom
ST. LOUIS Building the best record in

the major leagues is hard work.
The St. Louis Cardinals have overcome

them close and plugging gaps with youngsters who have risen to the moment.
Stephen Piscotty is a case in point.
The 24-year-old rookie leads the team
with a .333 average since making his major
league debut July 21. On Wednesday night,
he hit his second home run in a 4-3 victory
over the San Francisco Giants after being
robbed of a long ball by center fielder Juan

Cardinals are 77-43 overall and 46-19 at
home, both tops in the majors. Instead, he
steers the conversation back to the daily
bites.
The Cardinals have advanced to the NL
Championship Series four straight seasons,
a franchise best. Matheny acknowledges a
perception outside the organization that the
franchise has grown arrogant.
I dont think were a real popular club for
whatever reason and some of it is selfinduced with Weve got the Cardinal Way,
which was never intended that way,
Matheny said. We just try to stay the course
with what we think is right.
Before taking two of three from the
Giants, Matheny said there was no extra
motivation in facing the World Series champions. San Francisco knocked the Cardinals
out in the NLCS last fall.

home runs and 42 RBIs in 96 games with the
Reds. The Giants become his seventh team
since 2012.
Byrd wasnt available for comment before
the trade was announced in Cincinnati. Byrd
is scheduled to join the Giants on Friday in
Pittsburgh.
Pence has been limited to 52 games after
beginning the season on the disabled list
with a broken left arm, which prevented him
joining the lineup until May 16. He is hitting
.275 with nine homers.
The Giants discussed a deal for Byrd last
month before the non-waiver trading deadline, Reds general manager Walt Jocketty
said. The talks resumed the past three days
with San Francisco dealing with so many
injuries.
Giants general manager Bobby Evans said
the team had been looking at a number of
outfield options help and the injury to Pence
sped up the process.
Evans said the Giants would prefer to
keep Aoki in left field and play Byrd in right
field. The GM said well see how it plays
out as far as if Byrd would be able to cover
the spacious right field at AT&T Park.
This was another opportunity to give one
of our veteran players a chance to go to a
contending club and help them get to the
postseason, Jocketty said. (Giants) have
had a lot of injuries in the outfield. ... So
hell get plenty of playing time there, and as
we transition to playing more younger players.
The Giants sent minor league reliever
Stephen Johnson to the Reds. The 24-yearold right-hander was 3-0 with a 3.41 ERA in
44 games with Double-A Richmond.
The Reds acquired Byrd from the Phillies
last Dec. 31 to fill a void in left field, but
now the team is out of contention and Byrd
is a pricey piece. He is earning $8 million
this year and has an $8 million club option
for 2016 that becomes guaranteed if he has
509 at-bats this year. He currently has 359
at-bats. He missed time with a broken left
wrist after being hit by a pitch.
The Reds got cash from the Phillies to
cover part of Byrds salary last December.
They sent some of the money to the Giants
as part of the deal.

Tiger has best round in two years at Wyndham

By Joedy McCreary
GREENSBORO, N.C. Tiger Woods kept

saying his game was getting better, even
though his results didnt show it.
On his first day at the Wyndham
Championship, his score finally did.
Woods had his best round in more than two
years Thursday, shooting a 6-under 64.
Two-time heart transplant recipient Erik
Compton, William McGirt and Tom Hoge
shared the first-round lead at 62.
Morgan Hoffman, Jim Herman and Derek
Ernst followed at 63, and Martin Kaymer,
Davis Love III and Carl Pettersson joined
Woods at 64.
It was Woods lowest score on the PGA
Tour since a 61 in the second round of the
WGC-Bridgestone Invitational in 2013.
He and the others took advantage of a lowscoring day at what he called a tricky
Donald Ross-designed course at Sedgefield
Country Club that gave up bunches of birdies
after morning showers softened the fairways
and greens.
When its like this, Woods said, youve
got to throw darts and go low.
And while Compton and McGirt threatened
Tiger Woods
the tournament record, the

clear story of the day was
Woods.
That low score couldnt
have come at a better time
for the biggest name in the
sport.
He set the tone by holing
a 54-foot chip shot on his
first hole, the par-4 10th,
for the first of his seven
birdies.
Finally, he said, I got something out of
my round.
Woods arrived insisting he was playing better than his recent results might indicate.
He had missed the cut in three straight
majors and had not finished better than a tie
for 17th at the Masters. Hes at No. 187 on the
FedEx Cup points list and probably needs a
win to move into the top 125 and earn a playoff spot.
Yet he said after last weeks early exit from
the PGA Championship that those results
belied the improvement he was making in his
game.
I know its crazy to say, but I wasnt playing that poorly at PGA, Woods said. Any
borderline shot (at Whistling Straits) I never
got away with it, and thats the way it goes. I
felt like I was hitting the ball good enough and

just kept progressing, and today was just a
continuation of it.
Especially on that first hole.
His shot from the left side of the green landed about 8 feet from the cup and rolled in.
I went for the shot, and instead of playing
something more conservative, the greens were
hard and fast, and I wanted to play something
long, Woods said. I got aggressive with it,
and I went for it, and I pulled it off. ... I could
see it going in.
Hoge, playing in the days final grouping,
made a late charge up the leaderboard, closing
his round with a 5-foot birdie putt on the 18th.
Compton, who started on the back nine, finished with a 29 on the front nine with seven
birdies in that span.
Any time you can break 30 in nine holes,
youre obviously doing something really
cool, Compton said.
Its the latest positive for a 35-year-old who
earned his tour card in 2012 four years
after his second heart transplant.
Hes chasing his first victory, and so is
McGirt, who finished in a tie for eighth here
last year. At No. 86 on the points list, McGirt
is in virtually no danger of missing the playoffs.
Compton whos closer to the cutoff at
No. 114 is just trying not to lose any

ground.
Meanwhile, for the others closer to the postseason bubble, things are a little more stressful.
Ernst, whos at No. 178 and is playing in the
final tournament of the 2-year exemption he
earned for his lone victory at the Wells
Fargo Championship in 2013 shot the best
round of his four-year career.
But perhaps nobodys dealing with more
than Billy Hurley III.
Hurleys first round came two days after he
attended the funeral of his father, who died
last week of a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
The 33-year-old Hurley is at No. 131 on the
points list and is only here this week because
hes trying to secure his PGA Tour card for
next year.
It wasnt really a hard decision to play,
Hurley said, but its certainly hard to do.
He said he nearly felt overwhelmed on the
putting green, almost didnt know what I was
doing in some ways during his first handful
of holes, then scrambled my way around the
back nine.
By the end of his 69, Hurley said he felt
like almost a golfer again.
Golovkin title unification fight is close to sellout

By Greg Beacham
LOS ANGELES Three years ago,

Gennady Golovkin was largely unknown outside hard-core boxing circles. In two months,
hell take on David Lemieux in an HBO payper-view fight for their four combined middleweight title belts at a sold-out Madison
Square Garden.
Although the Kazakh stars charisma and his
Canadian counterparts passionate fans played
roles, Golovkins reputation for violent knockouts is the biggest reason these fighters have
already sold more than 15,000 tickets. Only the
cheap seats are left in New Yorks famed arena
for the Oct. 17 fight.
Golovkin (33-0, 30 KOs) said he wont allow
his soaring stardom to distract him from the
goal of unifying every middleweight championship.

He already holds the WBA
160-pound title, the WBC
interim title and the IBO
belt, while Lemieux (34-2,
31 KOs) is the IBF champion.
Right now is an interesting
time for me, Golovkin
Gennady
said before a packed news
Golovkin
conference in downtown
Los Angeles, his adopted hometown. I dont
lose motivation. My goal is all the middleweight championships. This is a big year for
me, and next year will be even bigger.
Its tough to get much bigger than a title unification fight at Madison Square Garden,
where Golovkin will try for his 21st consecu-
tive stoppage victory. Golovkins promoter,

Tom Loeffler, deliberately set the ticket prices
slightly lower than other high-profile New
York fights to entice fans and they responded even more aggressively than he expected,
guaranteeing an eventual sellout.
Golovkin and Lemieux also will make their
debuts as HBO pay-per-view headliners on a
card featuring vaunted Nicaraguan flyweight
champion Roman Chocolatito Gonzalez
against Brian Viloria.
The pay-per-view decision rankled some
Golovkin fans who have tracked his rise
from relative obscurity in Germany to major
bouts in New York and Los Angeles in the
past two years. Yet Golovkins camp made a
major financial offer to entice Lemieux into
the ring after years of getting turned down
by champions and well-known stars wary of
Golovkins power and skill.

This is the first time anybody would agree
to step in the ring with Gennady when they had
something to lose, said Loeffler. I figured it
would sell out (Madison Square Garden), but
the response now, that exceeds whatever we
thought. With every fight, he grows.
Lemieux said he didnt hesitate to take the
biggest test of his career, and he could land
legions of new fans with his brawling, relentless style. He claimed the vacant IBF title in
June by knocking down Hassan NDam four
times in a decision win.
Whats a better time than now? Lemieux
asked. Hes at his best. Im at my best. Im
confident in my abilities. Im not scared of
him. Hes a smart guy. He knows what hes
in against, but hell be surprised by my
power.

Decision on Pistorius release
may take up to four months
JOHANNESBURG A spokesman for South Africas
justice ministry says a review board has up to four months
to decide whether Oscar Pistorius will be released from
prison into house arrest.
Justice ministry spokesman Mthunzi Mhaga put Pistorius
early release scheduled for Friday on hold, saying it
was approved too soon. The justice ministry said it was
approved eight months into his five-year prison sentence,
when he should have served 10 months before even being
considered for release.
Pistorius was convicted last year of manslaughter for
killing his girlfriend, Reeva Steenkamp, in 2013.

Some NFL coaches speak out

to curb training camp fights
By Steve Reed
to his team before scrimmages with the Chicago Bears.
SPARTANBURG, S.C. Carolina Panthers coach Ron Rivera

offered this edict to his players before the start of this weeks joint
practices with the Miami Dolphins: You fight, youre out.
We told our guys if you get thrown off the field, Im going to treat
you like you got thrown out of a game, Rivera said Thursday.
So players wouldnt return to practice.
Dolphins coach Joe Philbin agreed with the approach, and it has
worked.
Skirmishes at camps are not new, and to some extent even condoned. But Rivera and Philbin are among a group of coaches around
the league who have spoken out to curb the fighting that has garnered
training camps headlines in an effort to set the tone for workouts.
And when coaches speak out, their voices are being heard.
Arizona Cardinals coach Bruce Arians said he has no patience for
fighting in training camp, issuing a zero tolerance policy. If players
fight, they run.
Its not tolerated here, Arians said. Coaches that believe in it,
they need to get new jobs.
The Dolphins and Panthers completed two days of fight-free work
on Thursday, aside from one very minor scuffle between Panthers
offensive lineman Michael Oher and Dolphins defensive end Olivier
Vernon on Wednesday.
We talked to our players about making sure we took advantage of
the opportunity, Rivera said. We didnt come here to be disruptive
and fight, we came here to get better as a football team.
Philbin said he and Rivera took measures before practices to make
sure players were getting the message, calling them together in a
group near midfield. And once practice started, the Rivera and
Philbin split up and went to different fields, each with authority to
discipline the opposing teams players.
I told our team were not coming here to have a bar room brawl
and If we want to do that, we can stay down in Florida, Philbin
said. We came down here to compete and to get tougher and to get
a little more physical against a really good football team.
Indianapolis Colts coach Chuck Pagano issued a similar statement
CARDINALS
celebrate and its not you just like completely erase that,
Matheny said. But its a new year.
The injury list is long. Adam Wainwright, Matt Holliday,
Matt Adams, Jon Jay, Jordan Walden and now Randal Grichuk
have all missed significant time.
The Cardinals keep coming up with replacements.
It all hinges on a pitching staff thats posted a 2.61 ERA that
would be the best in the majors since the 1972 Orioles if the
season ended like this. All without Wainwright.
Michael Wacha has blossomed at age 24, ranking among the
league leaders with 14 wins. Carlos Martinez, 23, is 12-5 with
Pagano didnt want a repeat of the sideline-clearing brawl that happened earlier this summer between the Washington Redskins and
Houston Texans, or even the fights that marred a joint practice
between the Dallas Cowboys and St. Louis Rams earlier this week.
If guys fight, if you do it in the game, theyre going to throw you
out and youre hurting the team. So you cant do it, Pagano said.
... Treat them like we treat ourselves. Its not about the chirping and
the jaw jacking and taking cheap shots. Its about getting better.
Baltimore Ravens coach John Harbaugh emphasized to his team
before their practices with the Philadelphia Eagles that when you
practice together, you have to function as one team and he felt like
the two teams did a good job of that in their first joint workout with
coach Chip Kellys squad.
The New England Patriots and New Orleans Saints have had incident-free workouts.
Saints coach Sean Payton emphasized fighting is not necessary.
For as much as we are harping about avoiding it, the (NFL) network puts it on 11 times, Payton said. ... We are both trying to do
the same thing at this period of training camp and that is unfortunate
when you see it happen with other teams. Clearly when you put a
team on television like Hard Knocks and then practice with someone
else, weve seen that formula two years in a row so that is nothing
new.
Although several NFL coaches have praised what theyve gotten
out of joint practices, some coaches avoid it for competitive reasons.
Had a lot of opportunities to do it, Chiefs coach Andy Reid said,
but probably from a selfish standpoint, in todays world, with technology, theres not a lot of secrets. You have your coaching points,
teaching points you try to teach on the field and I really dont
want anyone hearing that.
a 2.59 ERA in his first year in the rotation. Veterans John
Lackey (10-7, 2.87) and Lance Lynn (9-8, 2.94) have been
innings eaters, and Jaime Garcia (5-4, 1.79) has been a revelation in his return from shoulder surgery.
Lefty Kevin Siegrist has returned to form after a sub-par
2014, and has become a key setup man ahead of closer Trevor
Rosenthal, who has 38 saves and a 1.44 ERA, in the nearly seasonlong absence of Walden.
Though there are three regular outfielders on the disabled list
and first base has been a largely unproductive revolving door,
theres been just enough offense.
Before Piscottys emergence, Grichuk posted numbers worthy of NL rookie of the year consideration as the stand-in
starter for Holliday.
Anybody trying to be a second-rate version of somebody
else is just a bad plan, I dont care who it is, Matheny said.
They just need to be themselves.

Stoners paranoia come to life

American Ultra is a violent pot-fueled action-comedy
By Jake Coyle
The likably awkward chemistry of Kristen Stewart and

Jesse Eisenberg remains intact
in American Ultra, a violent
stoner action-comedy thats
half Pineapple Express, half
The Bourne Identity, and

not as good as either.
Stewart and Eisenberg, who
starred together in the splendidly low-key summer comedy Adventureland, again
come together as an appealing, mutually mop-headed
tandem
that
matches
Eisenbergs stuttering unease

with Stewarts deadpan cool.
They play a flannel-wearing
West Virginia couple, Mike
and Phoebe, happy together
despite Mikes weed habit,
perpetual apologizing and
panic attacks from just about
anything that upsets his seem-
ingly innate inertia. Looking

at a car thats crashed into a
tree, he wonders to Phoebe,
placating and devoted, if hes
the tree and shes the car.
The small-town, low-stakes
drama of American Ultra is

Broadway By the
Bay keeps West
Side Story fresh
By Judy Richter
DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT
The story of Romeo and Juliet finds its 20th century counterpart in West Side Story, presented by Broadway By the
Bay.
With music by Leonard Bernstein, lyrics by Stephen
Sondheim and book by Arthur Laurents, Shakespeares battling Capulets and Montagues in 16th-century Italy become
the Sharks and Jets, street gangs in New Yorks Upper West
Side in the mid-50s
In the BBB production, the star-crossed lovers are played by
Nikita Burshteyn as Tony, a member of the white Jets, and
Samantha Cardenas as Maria, part of the Puerto Rican Sharks.
Both are noteworthy in songs like Maria, Tonight and
One Hand, One Heart. As the two gangs vie for turf, Tony
and Maria become its victims.
Theyre well supported by Taylor Iman Jones as Marias
friend Anita and others in the 40-member cast, ably directed
by Amanda Folena.
The 1957 Broadway smash was originally directed and choreographed by Jerome Robbins. Nicole Helfer recreates some
of that original choreography and adds some of her own with
dynamic results. The outstanding orchestra is conducted by
musical director Sean Kana.
Kelly James Tighes set of scaffolding, with lighting by Joe
D'Emilio, evokes the neighborhoods grittiness, as does the
sound design by Jon Hayward. The 50s costumes are by
Margaret Toomey.
This is Folenas final show after four years as the companys
artistic director. She will be pursuing a teaching opportunity,
she says in the program. The company will celebrate its 50th
anniversary on Oct. 4 at LV Mar restaurant in downtown
Redwood City.
Although West Side Story is based on an old story updated to the 50s, its still timely today as gangs, sects and nations
throughout the world fight over territory and innocent people
suffer.
It will continue at the Fox Theatre, 2215 Broadway,
Redwood City, through Aug. 30. It will then move to the
Golden State Theatre, Monterey, Sept. 4-12.

Detailed 18th century drawings of Greek ruins are on display in Piranesis Paestum: Master Drawings Uncovered, at the Cantor Arts Center at Stanford University through January 2016.
MUSEUM GOTTA SEE UM

By Susan Cohn
DAILY JOURNAL SENIOR CORRESPONDENT
PIRANESIS PAESTUM: MASTER

DRAWINGS UNCOVERED, AT THE
CANTOR ARTS CENTER AT STANFORD UNIVERSITY. A major exhibition of
Giovanni Battista Piranesis last master works
15 exquisitely rendered drawings made in
1777 of three ancient Greek temples in
Paestum, Italy, is on view at the Cantor
Arts Center on the Stanford University campus. Piranesis Paestum: Master Drawings
Uncovered, which also includes prints and
rare books of the period, sheds new light on
this celebrated 18th-century artists working
method and on the considerable impact of his
oeuvre on 18th- and 19th-century architectural taste.
While Piranesi (1720-1778) is primarily
known as the creator of such famous print
series as the Vedute di Roma and especially
the Carceri dInvenzione, this exhibition
focuses on some of his rare drawings. The
Paestum drawings are Piranesis most extensive body of work devoted to a single topographical site. Made in preparation for his
Diffrentes Vues de Pesto a book finished by his son, Francesco, and published
posthumously in 1778-79 the drawings
depict views of the three great Doric temples
in the former Greek colony of Poseidonia,

which in the third century B.C. was conquered
by the Romans and renamed Paestum.
Well-known British architect and collector
Sir John Soane, whose own oeuvre was
deeply inspired by classical architecture,
acquired these drawings at an auction in 1817.
Since then the works have been held in the
collection of a museum that Soane established
in his own house after becoming a professor
of architecture at the Royal Academy.
The Cantor has augmented Piranesis drawings with prints that include a portrait of
Piranesi by the Italian artist Francesco
(Felice) Polanzani (c. 1700 to after 1783),
and rare books by British and French architects who explore the importance of early
Greek architecture both in Greece and in the
Magna Graecia region (Southern Italy and
Sicily).
Wim de Wit, the Cantors adjunct curator of
architecture and design, said: These drawings are unique works of art created by one of
the most ingenious artists of late-18th-century
Italy, and they have never been displayed anywhere outside Sir John Soanes Museum in
London until this exhibition tour.
MUSEUM PARTICULARS. The Cantor
Arts Center is open six days a week, 11 a.m.
to 5 p.m. Wednesday to Monday and until 8
p.m. Thursday; closed Tuesday. The Cantor is
located on the Stanford campus, off Palm

Drive at Museum Way. Parking is free after 4
p.m. weekdays and all day on weekends and
major holidays. The Cantor is the only WestCoast venue for this exhibition, which originated at Sir John Soanes Museum, London.

Stanford showcases songs by Nol Coward

By Judy Richter
DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT
Nol Coward was a man of many

talents. Besides writing witty plays
like Private Lives and Blithe
Spirit, he was a prolific songwriter.
Cowardy Custard, presented by
Stanford Repertory Theater, provides a tasty sampling of those
songs, performed by four engaging
singers.
In this show devised by Alan
Strachan, Gerald Frow and Wendy
Toye, the 20 songs are narrative or
satirical. Directed by Brendon
Martin, it starts on a snappy note
with the foursome marching in
singing Has Anybody Seen Our
Ship?
Among the highlights are Mad
Dogs and Englishmen, sung by
student Andre Amarotico and recent
graduate Dante Belletti, and Dont
Put Your Daughter on the Stage,
Mrs. Worthington, sung by student
Samantha Rose Williams.
She and student Ellen Woods are
featured in Mad About You.
Belletti returns in Mad About the
Boy as Amarotico seems indifferent. This song could refer to
Cowards closeted homosexuality,
but this production steers away

from that as the two women join in.
Other highlights are Someday
Ill Find You, followed by the con-
cluding Ill See You Again, featuring all four.

Woods is a sweet-voiced soprano,
while Williams has a more operatic

voice with a wide range. Local
audiences may recall her as Eliza
Doolittle in Broadway by the Bays

My Fair Lady. Both men sing
well, too.
All four are multi-talented, executing choreography by Jamie
Yuen-Shore.
Theyre accompanied by three
fine young musicians: Wyatt
Smitherman, on violin; Christopher
Davis, on bass; and music director
Makulumy Alexander-Hills, on
piano.
The show is presented in the
Nitery Theater in Old Union. Its an
intimate space with four rows of
theater seats on risers plus round
tables, mostly for four, dispersed
through the rest of the space.
The only drawback is that it isnt
air-conditioned, so it can become
quite warm even though SRT provides a bottle of water at each seat.
Running about 75 minutes with
no
intermission,

Police: Caitlyn Jenner could face manslaughter in crash

By Tami Abdollah
LOS ANGELES Caitlyn Jenner could

face a vehicular manslaughter charge after
sheriffs investigators found she was driving
unsafely when she caused a chain-reaction
crash that killed a woman last February,
officials said Thursday.
Investigators found that Jenner was driving unsafe for the prevailing road conditions when her SUV rear-ended a Lexus,
Los Angeles County Sheriffs Department
spokeswoman Nicole Nishida said.
Their investigation found that speed was a
factor, considering the existing traffic conditions, Nishida said. Daniel W. Vomhof, an
accident reconstructionist, said the additional weight from towing a loaded trailed
makes it more difficult to stop a vehicle
quickly and can surprise people.
Jenner was hauling an off-road vehicle on
ULTRA
convincing in the beginning, thanks to the two
stars. But its a setup.
Unbeknownst to Mike, a convenience store
clerk, hes an elite killing machine trained by
the CIA, a decommissioned government
experiment. Few in the movies would be a
more unlikely secret agent than Eisenberg.
Did the program include Michael Cera? Was
Woody Allen in charge?
Switching to Langley, the film, directed by
a trailer behind her

Cadillac Escalade on Feb.
7 when she steered to
avoid cars slowing for a
traffic light in front of her
on the Pacific Coast
Highway in Malibu.
Jenner was unable to
stop in time and her SUV
Caitlyn Jenner rear-ended two cars,
pushing the Lexus into
oncoming traffic and also hitting a Toyota
Prius. The Lexus driver, 69-year-old Kim
Howe, was killed when her car was struck
head-on by a Hummer.
The case will be presented to prosecutors
for final review by the end of August,
Nishida said. The district attorneys office
will determine what charges Jenner ultimately faces.
If convicted of such a charge, Jenner
could face up to one year in county jail.
Jenners attorney Blair Berk declined comment.

Because Jenner has no prior record, its
unlikely she would face any jail time if prosecutors charge her with vehicular
manslaughter and shes convicted, said
Daniel W. Vomhof, an accident reconstructionist whos testified in 3,500 cases.
He said Jenner would more likely face a
fine or probation or even an ultimately
lesser charge such as driving too fast for
conditions.
Vomhof said Jenners experience towing a
loaded trailer may come into play in determining whats ultimately charged, as well as
how detailed the police investigation was in
recording speeds and distances at the accident scene.
The fatal crash occurred months before
Caitlyn Jenners transition. She was formerly known as Bruce Jenner, the 1976
Olympic decathlon champion and Kim
Kardashians stepfather.
Howes stepchildren have filed suit

against Jenner claiming theyve suffered
enormous damages.
The lawsuit by Dana Redmond and
William Howe does not specify how much
they are seeking. They claim Jenner was
negligent when she collided with their stepmothers car, causing them and other relatives great losses.
Attorneys for Howes step-children, Dana
Redmond and William Howe, did not immediately return email messages seeking comment.
Another woman, Jessica Steindorff, who
was driving the Prius, also filed suit seeking
unspecified damages. A phone message for
Steindorffs attorney, Brad Simon, was not
immediately returned on Thursday.
Jenners transition has played out in public over the past several months. Shes
vowed to use her to celebrity platform to
urge acceptance for others who are transgender.
Nima Nourizadeh (Project X) and written

by Max Landis (Chronicle), fills in the

BILL
future hung in limbo after the exit exam
was canceled.
The California Department of
Education elected to not renew a contract with the company which administered the exams, in part because the content did not mesh with the new standards
taught under Common Core curriculum.
Students who had previously qualified
for graduation by completing all other
requirements, except for passing the test,
faced uncertainty with regards to
whether they would be able to gain
acceptance to colleges or military academies without a diploma.
But the new bill by state Sen. Loni
Hancock, D-Oakland, attempts to allow
the students to move forward in their
academic career, while officials work to
develop a better exit exam system.
It is really important because it corrects a problem that is hurting students
through no fault of their own, said
Larry Levin, spokesman for Hancock.
He said, considering the overwhelming support the bill received in the
Assembly, he expects the bill to fly
through the Senate in similar fashion and
ultimately receive the blessing of Gov.
HISTORY
repainting the exterior wrought iron elements will be undertaken in accordance
with rules governing historic buildings,
according to the U.S. Postal Service.
Fashioned in the Mission Revival
style of architecture, the government
building maintains historic murals
painted under the auspices of the
Treasury Relief Art Project in 1937 a
federal program that aided Depressionstricken artists funded by the Works
Progress Administration, according to
U.S. Post Offices registry application.
Entitled Life in Early California,
artist Tom Lamans murals as well as a
carved wooden sculpture produced by
WPA-sponsored
artist
Zygmund
Sazevich that hangs above the front
door, will remain preserved for the public to appreciate.
I am thrilled at the prospect of our
beautiful St. Matthew Post Office being
refurbished and restored to its original
grandeur when it first graced our downtown, Mayor Maureen Freschet wrote
in an email. This building represents a
significant part of our architectural her-
23
Jerry Brown as soon as next week.

It would be hard to imagine him not
signing this, said Levin.
Local education officials praised the
intent of the bill, which was pulled
together in short order as a response to
the growing outcry for students who
found their educational career on hold.
This is good news all around, said
Larry Teshara, principal of the San
Mateo Adult School.
The adult school serves more than
10,000 students from all high schools in
the San Mateo Union High School
District, as well as adults continuing
their education.
Students who are unable to meet graduation requirements at their home high
school depend on resources available at
the adult school to move on to higher
education.
Some of the students caught in limbo
are still on hold from difficulties with
the exit exam last year, said Teshara, and
he hopes their path will be cleared by the
new legislation as well.
Teshara said in recent weeks he has
been inundated with calls from parents
of students who had previously failed
the exam, and were concerned about
when they would have another opportunity to take it.
He said many of the students who
attend the adult school move on to community colleges, and can begin their
course work without a diploma, but they

have no access to financial aid if they
have not formally graduated.
It is relatively rare a student can meet
all graduation requirements but struggle
with the exit exam, said Teshara, but students who do not speak English as their
primary language may struggle with the
exam, yet be proficient in the classroom.
District spokeswoman Sheri CostaBatis also expressed hope local students
would soon have greater clarity to their
path beyond high school.
The district team is very pleased with
the Legislatures expedient response to
address the issue and we anticipate that
by next week with the states final signing, that the lives of those who did not
previously pass [the exit exam] can proceed with their life plans in employment,
college and military opportunities,
Costa-Batis wrote in an email.
Levin said universities and military
academies will soon need to see the writing on the wall and admit the students
who were caught in limbo under the
bureaucratic process.
This is going to change, and its
changing as soon as possible, he said.
This seemed like such an injustice to
students.
itage and an important contributor to the

character of our downtown which
should be preserved for future generations.
The U.S. Postal Service is awaiting
approval from the State Historic
Preservation Office in Sacramento
before it can begin the improvements
while being assured its property will
remain a historic landmark. Because the
project keeps with historic preservation
zoning codes and is considered maintenance without a change in design,
appearance or materials, it does not
require a city planning application,
according to San Mateos Zoning
Administrator Darcy Forsell.
While these newly proposed improvements are mostly external, Freschet
noted the Saint Matthews Station
received a significant refurbishment in
the early 1990s with the help of then
U.S. Rep. Tom Lantos and former
Postmaster Carol Conroy.
Mitch Postel, executive director of the
San
Mateo
County
Historical
Association, said hes hopeful the landmark will continue to bolster the charm
of downtown.
It certainly says something about the
character of San Mateo in the 1930s with
this beautiful Mission Revival architec-
ture and the interior that sticks with that

mission revival kind of theme, Postel
said.
San Mateo began gaining traction with
the arrival of the railroad in the 1860s
and could be considered one of the oldest cities on the Peninsula, according to
U.S. Post Offices registry application.
Although budget cuts and many turning to email instead of heading down to
their local post office have impacted the
extent to which governments can splurge
on structures, Postel said buildings such
as the Saint Matthews Station provide a
glimpse into San Mateos past and pride.
Public buildings used to be important
and now, theyre rather pedestrian in the
way that they appear. But the older the
public building, of course the more care
that went into them, Postel said. And it
had a lot to do with pride of community.
And its really kind of too bad that modern government buildings that are conceived, have to keep the expense
account in mind. Its the idea that the
government is important and that these
buildings represent the governments
presence in a community.

IS Cairo car bomb underlines focus on state targets

By Brian Rohan
CAIRO A massive pre-dawn car bomb

by Islamic State extremists blasted the facade
off a police headquarters Thursday and rattled windows across Cairo wounding 29
but causing no deaths.
The attack reflected a strategy of the
groups branch in Egypt, which has targeted
authorities but avoided spectacularly bloody
civilian casualties at least for now.
Two years of violence in a militant campaign has left hundreds dead in Egypt, mainly police and soldiers, and a string of attacks
in the capital have undermined President
Abdel-Fattah el-Sissis claim to bring order
to the country.
The main, Sinai-based militant organization, which swore allegiance to the Islamic
State group last year, has shown worrying
signs of the Iraq- and Syria-based extremists
notorious brutality most notably, the
beheading this month of a Croatian captive.
But its strategy also shows differences with
the Islamic State core, which has ruthlessly
slaughtered civilians in Iraq, Syria and
PACIFIC
July 29.
Although her rent is only $1,200 a month,
Burwells income from Social Security is
only $1,296 a month.
When the work is completed at the park,
rents are expected to be from $2,500 to
$4,000 a month, about double what many
current tenants are being charged.
Our hearts go out to the tenants. Moving is
very stressful under the best of circumstances.
Being forced to move, especially in todays
housing market, is extremely upsetting,
Mayor Karen Ervin wrote in a statement.
DIAZ
been the interim city manager since June.
Redwood City demands a strong leader to
support an engaged and progressive community. Melissa Stevenson Diaz is the right person to lead the long-term success of the organization. Melissa is a seasoned veteran with
over 24 years of experience working with
diverse communities within Northern
The style of the attacks are a little different than what weve come
to expect from the IS group, as there is an absence of mass casualties
when it comes to urban areas. ...That may be attributed to its recruitment
strategies, but we cant assume that it wont change tactics going forward.
H.A. Hellyer, a security expert at the Brookings Institute think tank
Yemen, including in suicide bombings in

markets and mosques.
Thursdays attack in the Egyptian capital
was the third time the group has carried out a
large bombing at an hour when most people
are asleep or off the streets an apparent
attempt to limit public outrage against the
branch.
Its past similar attacks all led to few
casualties or deaths, mostly among police.
These include the dawn bombing of the
Italian Embassy in Cairo last month,
which killed one person; a huge truck
bomb in January 2014 targeting Cairos
security headquarters, which killed four
policemen; and a car bomb a month earlier that tore through a security headquarters in the Nile Delta city of Mansoura,
killing 16 people, nearly all policemen.

The first two of those attacks were claimed
by Ansar Beit al-Maqdis, as the affiliate was
called when it began targeting the government following the militarys ouster of an
Islamist president in 2013 and before it
pledged allegiance to the IS group last year.
The style of the attacks are a little different than what weve come to expect from the
IS group, as there is an absence of mass casualties when it comes to urban areas, said
H.A. Hellyer, a security expert at the
Brookings Institute think tank in Washington.
That may be attributed to its recruitment
strategies, but we cant assume that it wont
change tactics going forward.
The differences are likely rooted in two
factors. Egypt is overwhelmingly Sunni
Many of the mobile home parks tenants

are veterans or individuals with disabilities.
Resident Barbara Garrett, who feared she
would get an eviction notice soon, said the
deal is good for the residents in the short
term.
They said they will work one on one with
residents to help them relocate. Were interested to hear what the relocation assistance
will be. It will be helpful considering the
housing crisis we are in, Garrett said
Thursday.
The average rent for a one-bedroom apartment in the county is now $2,516, a 50.2 percent increase in four years, according to a
housing indicators report released in July by
the countys Housing Authority.
The tenants were also assisted by the Legal
Aid Society of San Mateo County.
Of the 93 homes in the park, 15 are owned

by residents who lease the space from the
park while Pacific Skies owns the remaining
78 homes on the property.
The owners previously applied to raise the
rents for the parks 15 homeowners by up to
170 percent to pay for needed repairs such as
reinforcing the seawall. The park is right on
the coast with steep cliffs leading to the ocean
below.
They were denied the increase, however.
The rent control ordinance for the mobile
home park limits any increases to 75 percent
of the Consumer Price Index but only applies
to the owners and not the renters.
This park is a stunning example of the difference basic rent and eviction protections
can make in a community. The homeowner
residents, who are protected by Pacificas
mobile home rent control ordinance, were

given a chance to fight for their homes and
maintain housing stability through the hearings we conducted last year. But the tenant
residents, who are not protected by the ordinance, are given these abrupt termination
notices with no explanation and very little
legal recourse, Legal Aid Society attorney
Shirley Gibson wrote in a statement. Here
we have people living side by side with dramatically different legal rights. Everyone
deserves stable housing and I am hopeful that
people will see by this example and others
around the county that basic protections for
tenants need to be implemented now.
California. Her experience will be of tremendous value to the city of Redwood City as we
look to the future and continue to build on our
successes, Mayor Jeff Gee wrote in a statement.
Her annual salary will be $248,000.
The appointment and consideration of an
employment contract are scheduled for the
City Council at its next meeting Monday,
Aug. 24.
Diaz has also served as interim city manager in Mountain View.
Before joining Mountain View, Diaz held
various leadership roles in Fremont and
Morgan Hill and was responsible for functions such as human resources, finance and
budget, policy analysis, redevelopment and
economic development, information technology management, community engagement
and communications, according to a statement
from the city Thursday.
Redwood Citys success and positive momentum, Diaz wrote in a statement.

City Manager Bob Bell announced his
retirement at the end of February and a formal
recruitment process was launched in April to
search for his replacement.
Bell retired in June and the City Council
appointed Aaron Aknin as interim city manager. Aknin will continue as interim until
October. At which time, Aknin will return as
assistant city manager and continue to retain
the position of community development
director.
Diaz will start as city manager on Oct. 12.

Muslim with a Christian minority of around

10 percent, and has virtually no population of
Shiite Muslims, the community that IS mainly targets in its worst mass attacks elsewhere.
Also, the Egyptian branch is a homegrown
group whose original name, Ansar Beit alMaqdis, means Champions of Jerusalem. It
stepped up its insurgency in revenge for a
police crackdown on Islamists following the
militarys 2013 ouster of Islamist President
Mohammed Morsi. Its homegrown status
likely makes it more attentive to local sentiment.
Thursdays blast, which went off just
before 2 a.m., fits the groups pattern of
attacks. It demolished a wall in front of the
security building, bringing down watch towers and leaving gaping holes exposing its
offices. Of those hurt, 11 were police and soldiers.
Authorities said high-powered explosives
were used in the blast, which was heard and
felt across the city, damaging nearby schools
and court buildings. It also shattered colored
glass windows and cracked the walls of a
nearby palace built by Muhammad Ali, an
early 19th-century ruler of Egypt.
Redwood City has thoughtfully crafted a

highly-desirable community for residents and
businesses alike. I have long admired the
citys commitment to community engagement, inclusion, collaboration and innovation.
It would be an honor to work with the City
Council, staff and community to further
