Standoff with suspected thieves ends in arrests

By Zachary Clark
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
A standoff between San Mateo police offi-
cers and three suspected thieves left one of
them wounded by a beanbag shotgun round
and all three of them in custody, according
to police.
The men were suspected of stealing tools
from a business on the 1000 block of South
Railroad Avenue in San Mateo in the early
morning of Sept. 29.
Hector Alonzo Garcia, 27, Hugo Vasquez,
46, and Moises Vasquez, 25, all of San
Mateo, were booked into county jail for bur-
glary, conspiracy and obstructing/resisting
arrest, according to a press release.
Police officers responded to a commercial
burglary alarm at 2:20 a.m. and located an
occupied Chevrolet Trailblazer driving away
from the business in question. The driver,
later identified as Garcia, stopped and quick-
ly exited the vehicle a short distance away.
Officers identified themselves and ordered
Garcia to stop multiple times, but he instead
ran into another business on the 1100
block of South Railroad Avenue. As he fled,
he closed the gate to that business on the
hand of one of the officers in pursuit.  before firing three “less lethal beanbag
The other two men associated to Garcia
were also determined to be inside the busi-
nesses’ property, according to police.
Assisted by allied agencies, officers
established a perimeter when they saw the
three men jumping over fences into other
adjacent properties. Officers repeatedly
identified themselves and ordered the men to
surrender, but the suspects hid in various
locations. Two of them were found hiding
on the roof of a business on the 1100 block
of South Railroad Avenue. Because the men
refused to cooperate and might have been
armed, officers waited several minutes
shotgun rounds” at the suspect’s lower legs
to distract and immobilize them, said San
Mateo police Sgt. Amanda Von Glahn. She
described the rounds as small fabric pillows
consisting of pellets. 
Two of the three shots hit one of the men
in the lower part of his legs and the third
shot missed them. Von Glahn said the shots
didn’t seem to affect the men, but they even-
tually gave up and were arrested.
A San Mateo police K-9 found the third
man hiding under a wooden pallet on anoth-
er business’s property on the 1100 block of
Railroad Avenue. He was arrested after
briefly struggling with officers, according
to police.

Body found in beach parking lot
San Mateo County sheriff’s deputies are
investigating a possible homicide after they
got a call reporting a dead body in a parking
lot at Tunitas Creek Beach Tuesday morning.
Deputies got a call around 7 a.m. that a man
was down in the parking lot south of Half
Moon Bay. They arrived and found “obvious
signs of death,” Detective Rosemerry
Blankswade said.
Investigators also found signs of foul play,
which led them to believe it is a homicide.
Blankswade said no vehicle or weapon was
found at the scene.
The investigation is still ongoing and the
Sheriff’s Office is asking anyone with infor-
mation to call (650) 363-4051 or an anony-
mous tip line at (800) 547-2700.
A similar incident occurred in February
when a body was found further up the coast in
the parking lot of Gray Whale Cove State
Beach in Montara.
Shelter in place after

A shelter-in-place order was issued due to a
Wednesday • Oct 3, 2018 5
hazardous materials spill Tuesday morning
in Menlo Park, according to Menlo Park
Fire Protection District Chief Harold
Schapelhouman.
At 10:24 a. m. , emergency officials
responded to a medical call from a 41-year-
old UPS truck driver on Bohannon Drive
who was having trouble breathing.
He said there was a package inside the
truck that was leaking, which prompted a
call to the hazmat team. The spill was iden-
tified as benzonitrile, a dangerous chemical
that can irritate the eyes, skin and respirato-
ry tract through inhalation, Schapelhouman
said.
The driver was found leaning against the
truck in respiratory distress. He had picked
up the truck around 9:15 a.m. and had been
driving for an hour when he began to have
difficulty breathing. He was taken to a hos-
pital and did not suffer any life-threatening
injuries.
The hazmat team was still on scene early
Tuesday afternoon along with a private
company brought in by UPS to clean up the
spill.

Gascon announces he won’t
seek re-election in 2019
San Francisco District Attorney George
Gascon announced today he will not seek re-
election in November 2019, citing his elderly
mother’s failing health.
In a statement issued late Tuesday afternoon,
Gascon said the years he has served as district
attorney have been “the most professionally
rewarding years of my life.”
Gascon’s statement continued, “After two suc-
cessful elections, I began preparation for a third
full term. Knowing full well what is involved in
running a winning campaign, my mother’s
weakened health weighed heavily on my mind.
She is 90 years old and has much greater needs
than when I took office. I am her only child and
have the responsibility to be there for her.”
Gascon was first appointed as the city’s dis-
trict attorney in 2011, succeeding Kamala Harris
who was elected as the state’s attorney general
and is now a U.S. senator. Gascon is the first
Latino to be San Francisco’s district attorney.
Prior to becoming district attorney, Gascon
served as the city’s police chief. He has also
served as the police chief for Mesa, Arizona, and
as assistant chief in the Los Angeles Police
Department.
Suzy Loftus, former president of the city’s
Police Commission, has filed papers to run for
district attorney.
San Francisco Mayor Breed weighs
drug injection site, despite veto
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO — Driven in part by fami-
ly tragedy, San Francisco Mayor London Breed
has repeatedly pledged to open what could be
the first supervised drug injection site in the
country.
However, California
Gov. Jerry Brown made the
promise tougher to keep
when he vetoed legislation
over the weekend that
would have given San
Francisco some legal cover
to open a site under a pilot
London Breed program.
The veto leaves Breed,
who was elected in June, in
the position of going it
alone to deliver on a prom-
ise that she says will save
lives and taxpayer money,
as well as clean up streets
littered with used syringes
and slumped-over addicts.
“We’re not going to give
Jerry Brown up, but at the same time,
what’s most important is
there are other people who are involved,” she
said Tuesday. “I want to make sure I’m not put-
ting other folks at risk if I do this.”
The site would provide space for people to
inject drugs and a “chill” room where they could
recover. Medical care, counseling and treatment
services would also be available.
Before moving forward, Breed said, she
wants to make sure nonprofits and workers
operating such a facility would be protected
from federal prosecution. She declined to set a
deadline.
San Francisco has an estimated 22,000 intra-
venous drug users and in recent years has report-
ed about 200 overdose deaths a year, largely
from opioids.
Breed grew up around drug users and lost a
younger sister, other family and friends to drug
overdoses.
The idea of providing a place for addicts to
shoot up initially struck her as wrong, but over
the years she has come to believe current laws
aren’t helping the problem. She championed a
task force to study the issue last year.
Injection sites remain illegal under federal
law, and U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions
has vowed to sue any city that opens one.
Philadelphia and Seattle have also expressed
support for opening such sites.
Breed’s effort in San Francisco comes as the
nation is struggling with an opioid epidemic.
The painkiller fentanyl is cheap, strong and
sometimes mixed into street drugs without buy-
ers’ knowledge, leading to overdose deaths.

State eases crime penalties, boosts scrutiny of police
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SACRAMENTO — California is continuing
a years-long easing of criminal penalties even
as it increases public scrutiny of law enforce-
ment.
In his final action on legislation before
leaving office in January, Gov. Jerry Brown
this weekend stuck with his long-term goal of
reducing mass incarceration, rehabilitating
juvenile offenders, trimming lengthy prison
sentences and offering second chances to the
criminally convicted.
One new law will automatically erase or
reduce marijuana-related convictions now that
the drug is legal recreationally.
Clergy targeted in sex abuse suit
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES — A man who says he was
sexually abused decades ago by his parish priest
said Tuesday he is suing all Catholic bishops in
California and the Archdiocese of Chicago,
seeking to compel church officials to release
records on clergy abuse.
The filing Tuesday in Los Angeles by Thomas
Emens claims a civil conspiracy among church
officials to cover up clergy sexual assault and
move offending priests to other parishes.
Emens said at a news conference that he was

SAN FRANCISCO — Rain showers moved

months of extremely dry weather.

office tweeted.
STATE
Brown signed a bill redefining the state’s
felony murder rule that held accomplices to
the same standard as if they had personally
killed someone. Prosecutors warned that hun-
dreds of people can seek resentencing, some-
times forcing near re-trials of cases that may
be decades old or the product of plea bargains.
“California’s murder statute irrationally
treated people who did not commit murder the
same as those who did,” Democratic Sen.
Nancy Skinner of Berkeley, the bill’s author,
said in a statement. California is now “reserv-
ing the harshest punishment to those who
directly participate in the death.”
Brown also barred 14- and 15-year-olds
from being tried as adults.
abused for two years starting in 1978 when he
was 10 years old by Monsignor Thomas Joseph
Mohan. The priest, who is deceased, arrived at
St. Anthony Claret Catholic Church in Anaheim
in the early 1970s from Chicago, according to
the lawsuit.
“This lawsuit is to find justice — to get the
clerics at the top to come clean and tell the
truth,” Emens said.
Attorney Jeff Anderson said the goal of the so-
called nuisance lawsuit is to force the church to
reveal the names of all priests accused of child
molestation.
Showers were reported from the coast
inland to the state capital and the San
Joaquin Valley, but rainfall rates varied
greatly.
The 0.01 inch (0.25 millimeter) of rain-
fall received in Fresno by early afternoon
was enough to crow about.
“We’re concerned about public safety and
about the rights of victims in these cases,”
said Jennifer Jacobs, a spokeswoman for the
California District Attorneys Association,
which opposed both laws. “These are people
with violent criminal pasts who will be
allowed out of jail.”
Other bills in a package by Los Angeles-
area Democratic Sens. Ricardo Lara and Holly
Mitchell remove those 11 and younger from
juvenile court jurisdiction entirely unless they
are accused of murder or certain violent sex
crimes, and another gives judges discretion
over whether to impose what were mandatory
five-year additional prison sentences for
repeat serious offenders.

Sexual harassment claim
withdrawn in California House race
LOS ANGELES — A woman who accused a
Southern California Democratic congressional
candidate of sexual harassment has withdrawn
the claim, saying it was a misunderstanding.
The announcement by Gil Cisneros’ cam-
paign followed a barrage of Republican-backed
ads in the 39th District spotlighting the accusa-
tion.
Former state Assembly candidate Melissa
Fazli said in May that Cisneros made sexually
suggestive comments to her at a Democratic
state convention and during a later phone call.
After meeting this weekend, Fazli and
Cisneros said in a joint statement Monday that

The bills “make rehabilitation and commu-
nity recovery the focus of our criminal justice
system,” said Lara. “Thirty years of harsh sen-
tencing laws resulted in overcrowded prisons
without improving public safety.”
Other new laws allow prosecutors to ask
judges to shorten prison sentences and extend
an existing law that allows nonviolent
offenders between 18 and 21 to serve sen-
tences in juvenile facilities and eventually
have their charges dismissed.
He also made it easier for about 220,000

tions that already were eligible to be stricken

it was a misunderstanding.
Cisneros faces Republican Young Kim in a
November race widely considered a toss-up.
California sets record as voter
registration tops 19 million
SACRAMENTO — California’s voter regis-
tration has hit an all-time high ahead of the
November election, with more than 19 million
people on the voting rolls, Secretary of State
Alex Padilla reported Tuesday.
Nearly 76 percent of those eligible to vote
were registered as of Sept. 7, the largest share in
September since the 1996 presidential election,
which had 77 percent.
Californians are increasingly turning away
from political parties and registering as “no
party preference” voters, a trend that has gained
steam over the past two decades.

if Dems win Congress Kavanaugh investigation
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. — As the
fate of his Supreme Court pick hangs
in the balance, President Donald
Trump barnstormed for a Republican
Senate candidate in Tennessee, warn-
ing that Democrats will unleash
havoc if they gain control of
Congress and accusing them of try-
ing to sink his nominee.
“A Democratic takeover of
Congress will plunge our country
into gridlock and chaos and take
away all of the wealth that you’ve
earned over the last 20 months,”
Trump warned Monday night, claim-
ing without evidence that the stock
market would plummet, 401(k)s dis-
appear, taxes rise beyond “your
wildest imagination,” and crime go
through the roof.
It was a dire picture painted by a
president eager to convince his rau-
cous supporters of what’s at stake in
November as he headlined a high-
dollar, closed-door fundraiser and
appeared at a packed rally in Johnson
City to boost U.S. Rep. Marsha
Blackburn in her tight Senate race
against the state’s Democratic ex-
Gov. Phil Bredesen for the seat being
vacated by retiring Republican Sen.
Bob Corker.
Trump praised Blackburn as a “true
fighter” for the state, telling the
crowd, “She’s all about Tennessee
values.”
“A vote for Marsha is really a vote
for me,” he said.
Bredesen, like other Democratic
candidates across Trump country, has

Addiego, Gupta and Nagales for South City council The addictive system
P
lanning for the future while
maintaining character is the
delicate balance all Peninsula
cities are facing as we enter the next
decade after the Great Recession and
the economic expansion that took
many by surprise.
That economic expansion caused
the cost of living to rise, along with
the price of housing. One method to
ameliorate those rising costs has
been to increase the supply of hous-
ing, which South San Francisco has
employed in recent years. Another
recently employed method is to
require in-lieu fees and inclusionary
zoning requirements that will create
below-market rate units in any new
development.
But that new construction is also
sparking concern by many longtime
residents of the changing character of
the city and the risk that many of
them may be forced to leave because
the new economy is leaving them
behind. That is the balance the coun-
cil must face, and that is the primary
issue in the South San Francisco City
Council race.

sentative of those concerned about
the changing character. She is bright,

Nagales is there pushing for below-
market rate units as a way to keep the
working class and younger residents
here. He is data-driven and accommo-
dating to current residents as a native
of the city. It is important to bring
the younger generation to the table
and Nagales will be able to provide
that connection.
Addiego has been a rock-solid civil
servant for about 20 years with a
ready command of the city’s issues
from development and housing to its
finances and the can-do attitude that
will be needed to get its Civic Center
revamp done. While it is easy to com-
plain about the conditions created by
the economic boom, he is quick to
point out that it is far better than
high employment and severe worries
about finances. He knows the city’s
past, its challenges it has overcome
and is ready to proceed into the future
in a unique way that South City has
over the years.
Gupta too is a steady influence on
the council. He has a firm grip on
the city’s challenges and has
stepped up into the role of regional
leader on a number of issues. He rec-
ognizes the severe challenges South
City, along with all cities, face
when it comes to pension obliga-
tions, affordability, transportation

“T
hings that matter most should never be at the
mercy of things that matter least.” — Johann
Wolfgang von Goethe.
I’ll always remember the day when I polished the shoes
of the famous UCLA basketball coach, John Wooden. It
was many years ago when I was attending UCLA and we
had a gala event to raise money for the women’s athletic
program. I was stationed at the shoe shining booth and
he came to partake of my services. UCLA’s basketball had
been winning handily and he had been there for only a
couple of years and we all admired him. Wooden, to this
day, is remembered for a statement he made: “Sports do
not build character. They reveal it.” In more ways than
one. This leads to today’s column.
I recall the cover of a “Time” magazine that featured a
picture of a 16-year-old
boy who had died on the
football field. Shortly after
that we heard about three
high school players who
had succumbed as a result
of collisions It makes you
wonder how any parent
who heard of any of those
deaths could encourage, or
even allow, their sons to
play the game.
I won’t forget that in
2014, the San Mateo
County Times published a
study that the NFL released
that revealed that one third of its players “can expect to
suffer long-term cognitive problems, including dementia,
after retiring.” And that is not the usual retirement around
age 65 to which most people look forward. It’s retirement
from playing football. And yet the American obsession
with football and the resulting brain-rattling injuries
continue as we sacrifice our boys and young men at the
altar of this violent sport and athletic departments of edu-
cational institutions, along with corporate interests,
continue in their attempts to cover up their complicity
and try to protect against any potential liability.
George Orwell didn’t put it so mildly. “Serious sport
has nothing to do with fair play. It is bound up with
hatred, jealousy, boastfulness, disregard of all rules and
sadistic pleasure in witnessing violence.”
A very poignant article in “The Week” a year or so ago
comes to mind. It sadly described a serious problem with
some who are obsessed with the game. It was about a 6-
year-old boy whose life has been terribly changed forever
by his fanatical father who was trying to use his son to
fulfill his obsession for his son to become a star football
player. When the father found out about the extent of the
boy’s injuries caused by the game, it was reported: “The
boy’s football-obsessed father struggled to come to terms
with the idea that his son may never play again.” The
unfortunate boy, who may suffer the rest of his life from
his sojourn with tackle football, had been used by his
father to live vicariously and bolster his own ego. There
is no mention of a feeling of remorse for pressuring his
very young son to play a game that threatened brain dam-
age. It appears that it’s all Dad. “Mike wants his son to
be a football star — what would his own life be without
football.”
But not to worry! We then read about the “improve-
ments” that those involved in promoting the game are
planning. This includes regulating the amount of contact
during practice, banning full contact — like blocking and
tackling — in youth football during the off-season,
changing the head in a tackle, and having an athletic
trainer at all games and practices to evaluate the extent of
a player’s injuries (of course, after the fact). Really, does
anyone think that such changes can make much differ-
ence?
Every year during football season, all of the above
comes to mind. Shouldn’t this game be outlawed? Of
course, those who worship at the altar of the All-
American game want to preserve it. There’s too much at
stake. After all, it is an American icon and those with
vested interests want to preserve their jobs and continue
the monetary rewards connected with it. And when a few
more deaths and concussions occur while they’re trying
to figure out how to alter and save the game, well, that’s
the chance you have to take.
The above is a perfect example of what Anne Wilson
Schaef wrote in her insightful book, “When Society
Becomes an Addict.” She wrote: “The addictive system
invites us to compromise our morality at every turn.
Furthermore, it gives us all of the tools to do so. Self-
centeredness, the illusion of control, abnormal thinking
processes, denial, defensiveness, fear, frozen feelings
and each of the other characteristics of that system are
handed to us as ways to avoid being moral, responsible
persons. They silence the voice inside us that speaks the
truth.”

Retailers sink as Amazon raises pay, Dow at a record

By Marley Jay
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Retailers sank
Tuesday after Amazon said it will
raise hourly wages for U. S.
employees, and smaller compa-
nies continued to stumble. Several
big industrial companies rose,
pushing the Dow Jones Industrial
Average to a record high.
Amazon, one of the largest pri-
vate employers in the U.S., said it
will raise the minimum wage for
its U.S. workers to $15 an hour in
November. Amazon also said it
will advocate for an increase in the
federal minimum wage, which has
been $7.25 an hour since July
2009. Its stock fell, but other
retailers suffered bigger losses.
“The question is, do other com-
panies have to follow suit?” said
Quincy Krosby, chief market
strategist at Prudential Financial.
“This is the argument that what’s
good for Main Street is not neces-
sarily good for Wall Street.”
The bad news for retailers didn’t
end there. Stitch Fix, an online
clothing company, plunged 35.2
percent $28.94. Stitch Fix had
almost tripled since its IPO in
November.
Pepsi fell after it said the strong
dollar will take a bigger chunk out
of its annual profit. General
Motors and Ford both fell after
they reported their sales.

Business in brief
Poll: Half of young Americans
see better financial future
About half of young Americans expect to be financially bet-
ter off than their parents, according to a new poll, a sign that
the dream of upward mobility is alive but somewhat tempered.
The poll, by The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public
Affairs Research and MTV, found that half of 15- to 26-year-
olds think they eventually will be better off than their parents
in terms of household finances. About 29 percent expect to do
as well as their parents, and 20 percent expect to be worse off.
Parents were slightly more optimistic: 60 percent think their
children will do better than they did, a view that held true for
parents across all income groups. Overall, only 12 percent of
parents said that they felt their children might do worse.
It’s no longer a guarantee that children will achieve upward
income mobility. About half of the Americans born in 1984
earned more at age 30 than their parents, down from 92 percent
in 1940, according to the study by famed economist Raj Chetty
and others that was released in 2016.
Jennifer Narvaez, 23, is among those who anticipates her
financial future will be a bit brighter than that of her parents.
Narvaez said she expects to have more opportunities as a col-
lege graduate to get a job and own a home than her parents, who
grew up in Nicaragua and immigrated to the United States. The
Miami resident holds an undergraduate degree in biology and is
planning on attending medical school to become a cardiolo-
gist.
Can Tesla’s numbers be sustained?
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Tesla Motors accelerated production of its pivotal Model
3 sedan during the summer just as CEO Elon Musk prom-
ised, vindicating the electric car maker’s leader amid a back-
drop of baffling behavior that jeopardized his job.
The company announced Tuesday that it produced 80,142
vehicles in the third quarter, marking a 50 percent increase
over the previous quarter. Tesla also made
a major leap in the number of cars that
were delivered to customers who had pre-
ordered them.
The progress is essential to Tesla’s sur-
vival, not only to preserve customer
loyalty but to bring in the cash that the
company will need to repay $1.3 billion
in debt coming due within the next six
months. Producing more cars also
Elon Musk should help Tesla begin making money,
something it has been unable to do since
going public eight years ago.
“Today’s production announcement offers a bit of redemp-
tion to the Tesla faithful,” said Jeremy Acevedo, Edmunds
manager of industry analysis, in an email.
It also reverses a trend in which Tesla regularly missed its
production goals while amassing huge losses, fueling
doubts about its ability to expand from its niche of making
luxury sports cars powered by electricity to become a major
automaker. When the company hit its target for the first
time in the last week of June, some questioned whether the
feat was sustainable.
Musk worked nearly to exhaustion to keep that momen-
tum going during the past quarter. He has publicly said he
has been working as much as 120 hours per week and some-
times even slept on Tesla’s factory floor in Fremont,
California, to oversee the efforts to make more cars. The
company even built a heavy-duty tent to add space to pro-
duce Model 3s.
The past quarter’s accomplishments aren’t likely to keep
skeptics from wondering if Tesla will be able to crank out
enough of its cars to be profitable.
“Going forward, it doesn’t prove much, ” said Erik
Gordon, a professor at the University of Michigan Ross
School of Business. “They’re still producing in a tent,
they’re still producing the numbers by working crazy
hours, with crazy cheerleading by Musk...It’s sort of this
insane carnival.”
A total of 53,239 Model 3 vehicles rolled off Tesla’s
assembly line during the third quarter, hitting Musk’s target
of 50,000 to 55,000 for Tesla’s first electric car designed
for the mass market, and nearly doubling the second quar-
ter’s volume.
It produced 26,903 Model S and X vehicles. That’s slight-
ly better than its second-quarter performance and in line
with its full-year guidance. The company’s target of
100, 000 Model S and X deliveries in 2018 remains
unchanged.
“It’s refreshing to see the company making headlines for
producing cars, not controversies,”Acevedo said.
Indeed, the controversies abound for Tesla. Just last week,
Musk cleared a dark cloud hanging over the company when
he agreed to settle a Securities and Exchange Commission
case alleging he had misled investors by declaring he had
lined up the financing to take Tesla private. The SEC want-
ed to oust Musk as CEO as punishment. Musk is staying on
as CEO, but giving up his chairmanship. Musk and Tesla
will each pay $20 million to resolve the case.

Amazon raises wages to $15

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Amazon, the business that upended the
retailing industry and transformed the way we shop for just
about everything, is jumping out ahead of the pack again,
announcing a minimum wage of $15 an hour for its U.S.
employees that could force other big companies to raise
their pay.
The online giant also said it will push Congress to
increase the federal minimum wage, now at $7.25.
Given Amazon’s size and clout, the move Tuesday is a
major victory for the $15-an-hour movement, which has
organized protests of fast-food, gas station and other low-
paid workers. Already, several states and cities have raised
their minimum wages above the federal one.
Amazon, whose value topped an awesome $1 trillion in
September, has been under political and economic pressure
to pay its employees more.
“We listened to our critics, thought hard about what we
wanted to do, and decided we want to lead,” said Jeff Bezos,
Amazon founder and CEO.
But Amazon may also be offering raises out of necessity:
With the economy booming and unemployment near rock
bottom, employers are having difficulty finding help.
Amazon, with about 100 warehouses around the country,
will soon need to hire more than 100,000
workers to pack and ship boxes during
the holiday season.
The wage increase takes effect next
month.
Amazon said the move will benefit
more than 350,000 workers, including
full-time, part-time, temporary and sea-
sonal positions. Employees at Whole
Jeff Bezos Foods, the upscale grocery chain
Amazon owns, will get the same raise.
Hourly employees who already make $15 per hour will also
see a wage increase, the Seattle company said. (Workers in
Britain will also get a raise.)
Current pay for warehouse workers at Amazon is at least
$12.25 an hour in Omaha, Nebraska, $13 in Baltimore and
$16.50 in New York, according to recent job postings.
The announcement was enough to soothe one of
Amazon’s fiercest critics: Sen. Bernie Sanders. The senator,
who frequently uses Twitter to point out the disparity
between Amazon’s hourly wages and Bezos’ vast fortune,
congratulated Bezos for “doing exactly the right thing” and
urged other companies to follow Amazon’s example.
Sanders described Amazon’s move as “a shot heard around
the world.”

M-A stays tied atop PAL Bay with 4-set win at Woodside
By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
The Lady Bears have struggled
to get their entire team on the
floor in recent weeks.
So it was a big deal when senior
defensive specialist Erica Fischer
jogged onto the court in the fourth
set Tuesday at Woodside. With the
addition of sophomore outside hit-
ter Emma Spindt — who had
missed two previous matches due
to injury — Fischer’s late arrival
from a conflicting band recital
marked the first time the Menlo-
Atherton volleyball team has been
at full force in quite some time.
But just to show how well
things have been going for M-A in
recent weeks despite this, Fischer
promptly stepped to the service
line and fired an ace on her first
play of the match. It was one of an
array of highlights in a perform-
ance that saw every Bears player
produce to start the second half of
the Peninsula Athletic League Bay
Division slate with a four-set vic-
tory 26-24, 25-17, 22-25, 25-15

Oakland is making its ninth play-

Pac-12 teams navigate the NCAA’s new redshirt rule
By Anne M. Peterson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Utah coach Kyle Whittingham
has one way of tracking the players
who might be impacted by the
NCAA’s new redshirt rule going for-
ward. He and his staff are keeping a
spreadsheet.
While the spreadsheet idea may
not be exactly novel, it’s a good
way of navigating the new rule that
governs how many games a player
can appear in while still preserving
a redshirt season. It used to be that
even one game could cost a player
an entire season of eligibility. Now
players can appear in up to four
games and still qualify for a redshirt
year.
Utah is among four Pac-12 teams
about to play a fifth game this
week, which means some decisions
loom.
Whittingham said there are just a
handful of Utes players who might
be impacted Saturday night when
Utah plays at Stanford and going
forward. Decisions have already
been made on many players with
redshirt eligibility.

Whittingham said. “But the over-

if you think they can help you win

answer is yes, we’re tracking it
closely and we’re getting to that
point now that we’ve accumulated

shorter workout some days if
that’s all the coaches deem the
Warriors need.
Or, those older players might
just grab some extra rest.
That slight adjustment to the
practice approach has made for
what Kerr considers the best camp
of his tenure as he enters his fifth
season running the show. Golden
State also didn’t have to travel like
the trip the Warriors made to China
last year that took a physical toll.
“The continuity that we have
with the group combined with a
really good crop of young guys,
both the guys we know will be on
our roster and the guys trying out,
and some of whom will end up in
some guys we’ve decided to go
ahead and redshirt,” MacIntyre
said.
For some programs, decisions
about individual players — espe-
cially when it comes to true fresh-
men — have been obvious. USC
freshman quarterback JT Daniels
has had growing pains but the
Trojans (3-2, 2-1) are still very
much at play in the Pac-12 South.
At Oregon State, the Beavers
have a gem in freshman running
back Jermar Jefferson, who leads
the Pac-12 and is third at the FBS
level with an average of 145.4
rushing yards per game. He tops
the Pac-12 with eight rushing
touchdowns.
Oregon saw one consequence of
the new rule last week when the
team confirmed that senior running
back Taj Griffin had left the pro-
gram after appearing in three
games this season. He’s among
nearly a dozen players nationwide
who announced transfers last week.
Following their fifth game, the
No. 18 Ducks had seven players
who were no longer eligible to red-
shirt this season, including run-
ning back Travis Dye, tackle Penei
Sewell and safety Jevon Holland.

he said. “I think we’ve figured
some things out as a coaching

DeMarco, recently promoted to
assistant coach and director of
player development, is leading the
young Warriors after the departures
of three key veterans in JaVale
McGee, David West and Zaza
Pachulia.
There’s a youth movement now,
and Golden State is determined to
sustain its recent success — three
titles in four years — even with
the challenges of keeping an All-
Star-studded roster together in free
agency next summer.
By having the younger players
do their work earlier, Kerr can run
more focused practices with fewer
breaks by going straight from one
drill to the next.

Like other league teams, Oregon
is also closely monitoring its quar-
terback situation. Freshman quar-
terback Tyler Slough has appeared
in two games this season.
Additionally, QB Justin Herbert’s
backup, sophomore Braxton
Burmeister, has not utilized a red-
shirt year.
Head coach Mario Cristobal is
going to see how it plays out.
“The use of that year can come in
so many different ways, you hate to
try to set something in stone when
it’s way too early and then just

Cristobal said on the Pac-12 coach-
es teleconference Tuesday. “It’s on

conscientious about it because we

in the case of left tackle Layth
Friekh, who was granted an extra
year of eligibility after playing in
just one game as a freshman — the
catch was that he was suspended the

Morgan McClellan notched a double-dou-

Coupled with Menlo-Atherton’s four-set

with 7-1 league records. Carlmont remains in
third place with a 5-3 mark in the Bay.

“When we’re on, it’s something where

The Bears needed to be on their game to

record with a win over the Colts.
El Camino (0-8 PAL Bay) continues to get

The Scots solidified their hold on second
place in the PAL Bay Division with the win
over the Bearcats.
Woodside outside hitter Elena Campell
totaled 13 kills and six aces, and came out in
Game 1 showing off an array of attacks. The
touch on her roll shot kept M-A off balance
for most of the set, which saw the Wildcats
force set point at 24-23.
M-A responded with a mighty swing and a
fearless block though. A Woodside service
error tied it 24-24. Then Spindt produced her
sixth kill of the set to give the Bears set
point. Senior middle Sawyer Jones then
capped her standout Game 1 as she finished
off the win in extra-points with her third
block of the set.
Then in Game 2, M-A rallied for an early
9-2 lead and never looked back. It wasn’t
just that the Bears commanded the lead from
start to finish, it was the way they did it.
Five different M-A players contributed
points. And while Woodside committed just
three errors in the set — two service faults
and one field error — M-A went to town with
13 kills, six aces and three blocks.
“We played really strong in the second
set,” Campell said of Woodside’s perform-
ance. “I think we were really hyped to go
back and get that third set because we
weren’t going to lose in three.”
The Wildcats (4-4, 13-9) responded by
opening an early Game 3 lead behind back-
to-back aces from junior setter Molly
Buddie. Then a seesaw battle ensued, with
Carlmont’s No. 1 doubles team of Lily
Gittoes and Alyssa Nguyen needed three sets
to beat San Mateo’s Lian Ting and Alice
Chan, 6-4, 2-6, 6-2. Bella Reeves and
Saanika Joshi also needed three sets to win at
No. 2 doubles, beating Jeevika Adda and
Hannah Battat, 6-4, 1-6, 6-2.
San Mateo got its lone win at No. 2 sin-

to 16-10 — Campell totaled six kills and a
block in Game 3, while Strus produced four
of her eight match kills in the set — Letvin
later scored two more aces to close the lead
to 16-14.
M-A got at close at 18-17 on a left-side
bolt from Spindt, but Woodside held off the
charge to salvage one set, with Strus finish-
ing off the Game 3 win with a kill.
“I think we played well,” Campell said.
“People had momentum at some point. We
had it but we lost it.”
The Grover sisters sparred with Campell
from the service line in Game 4. Natalie
Grover scored three aces in the set, while
Mariah Grover had two. It was enough to
help open a 16-6 lead, so when Campell
went on a five-point service run, including
four aces, it was only enough to close the
deficit to 16-12.
Spindt, Letvin and Natalie Grover were
locked in from there though. And as if that
wasn’t enough, Mariah Grover scored late
on a dump shot for the setter’s only kill,
one that forced match point. Natalie Grover
finished off the victory with a kill off the
left side.

of 40.
“I think something that’s really special is
we vary our shots all the time,” Natalie

Letvin finished with seven kills, six aces,
10 digs and three blocks. Junior libero
Bella Shermis — filling in for Fischer —
totaled 14 digs and two aces. And junior
middle Marit Hoyem threw an array of looks
at Woodside, scoring twice with next-level
slide step attacks, and going on to total five
kills, four aces and a match-high five
blocks.
“The conditioning helps tremendously,”
Sierra said of M-A’s depth. “It helps the
girls last through long matches, especially
against a talented team like Woodside.”
The bottleneck through the middle of the
PAL Bay Division standings is going to
make for one interesting final month of the
regular season. After first-place M-A and
Aragon at 7-1 in league, Carlmont currently
sits alone in third place at 5-3. Only the top
three finishers in the Bay Division are guar-

Just one game back of Carlmont, though,
is Hillsdale, Woodside and Burlingame in a
three-way tie for fourth place at 4-4.
“I think this was our big rivalry match for
this league and we wanted to beat them,”
Campell said. “Now we just have to work
hard to end up where we want.”

Twins fire manager Paul Molitor A’S

HOFer was named ’17
AL Manager of the Year
By Dave Campbell
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
MINNEAPOLIS — Two years ago, the
Minnesota Twins made Derek Falvey their
chief baseball officer with the precondition
that Paul Molitor remain as manager.
Molitor presided over a playoff team and
won the American League Manager of the
Year award in 2017, but the Twins slipped
backward this season. Last week, Falvey and
general manager Thad Levine decided the
time was right to hire their own manager.
Citing pursuit of more productive devel-
opment by their younger players, Falvey
and Levine fired Molitor on Tuesday while
offering him an opportunity to remain with
the organization in an undefined position in
baseball operations.
“This wasn’t about our record this year.
This is about what we think is best as we
continue to grow a young team in the direc-
tion toward being a championship con-
tender,” Falvey said.
Falvey and other club executives
expressed confidence that Molitor would
stay with the Twins beyond the 20 years he
has already worked for them in various
roles, including the final three seasons of
his Hall of Fame playing career.
“I fully respect that decision,” Molitor
said in a statement distributed by the team.

history behind Tampa Bay’s 54 this year.
“There’s been a struggle between old-
school mentality and sabermetrics, and
this is a way to kind of incorporate saber-
metrics with effectiveness,” Oakland closer
Blake Treinen said. “You can’t say going a
starter for seven innings is the best way.
You can’t say that going an opener is the
best way. But this is what’s going to work
for us, and we’re going to ride it out, and we
have full faith in whoever makes the deci-
sions. I’m excited to see what this game
does because it’s kind of a first of its kind,
and I think we all fully embrace that.”
Yankees reliever Zach Britton, a two-time
All-Star reliever with Baltimore, said this
new method was unfathomable just five
years ago. Views started to change when the
Chicago Cubs and Cleveland Indians used
bullpens in a non-traditional manner in the
2016 postseason. Tampa Bay was 46-38
with regular starters this year and 44-34
when opening with relievers.
“I think the data shows that it’s an effec-
tive way, ” Britton said. “The hitters,
they’re not able to get comfortable off a
starter. There’s a new guy possibly every
time you come to the plate. So it’s a good
strategy, and you know why teams are start-
ing to do it, because it’s effective.”
Hendriks, a 29-year-old in his third sea-
son with Oakland, started for Minnesota
(2011-14) and Kansas City (2014) before
Toronto converted him to the bullpen in

After 21 appearances with Triple-A
Nashville, he was brought back on Sept. 1
when active rosters expanded to 40. As
Hendriks was checking into a hotel in
Oakland that day, he received a telephone
call from pitching coach Scott Emerson.
“‘By the way, you’re going to start
today,”’ Hendriks recalled Emerson telling
him. “I got to the field about an hour later,
and it was kind of, ‘Yep, we’re going to try
this opening thing, see how it goes.”’
Hendriks was removed with the score 0-0
after 30 pitches and five outs, and Danny
Coulombe allowed Ben Gamel’s two-run
double. The A’s tied a club record by using
nine pitchers in an 8-7 loss to Seattle. After
that, Hendriks pitched seven shutout
innings in his last seven starts, allowing
four hits.
His fastball velocity was 97 mph in

Rockies knock out Cubs in epic 13-inning wild-card game
By Jay Cohen
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CHICAGO — Tony Wolters hit a tiebreak-
ing single with two outs in the 13th inning
and the Colorado Rockies beat the Chicago
Cubs 2-1 on Tuesday night in an epic NL
wild-card game.
In the longest win-or-go-home postsea-
son game in major league history, Wolters
entered as part of a double
switch in the bottom of
the 12th. The reserve
catcher came up with run-
ners at the corners and
drove in Trevor Story
with a liner back up the
middle off losing pitcher
Kyle Hendricks for his
Tony Wolters first hit since Sept. 10,
quieting the crowd of
40,151 on a crisp fall night.
After playing its third big game over three
days in three different cities, Colorado now
heads to Milwaukee to open a best-of-five
Division Series against the NL Central cham-
pion Brewers on Thursday at Miller Park.
Scott Oberg, the sixth Colorado pitcher,
fanned Kris Bryant for the final out of the
12th and then struck out the side in the 13th
to end the longest postseason game in
Wrigley Field history. Terrance Gore tried to
sell that he was hit by a pitch, but was sent
back to the plate after a replay review con-
firmed the initial call.
After Albert Almora Jr. struck out swing-
ing for the final out, Wolters ran out and
grabbed Oberg. They were soon joined by
the rest of the excited Rockies in a rollick-
ing purple mob near the mound.
It was Wolters’ playoff debut and just the
second postseason game for Oberg.

Chicago made it to the NLCS in each of the

looked quite comfortable in his first career
playoff appearance, helping his hometown
team bounce back from Monday’s NL West
tiebreaker loss to the Dodgers in Los
Angeles.
Lester helped Chicago stick around by
matching a career playoff high with nine
strikeouts in his 26th postseason appear-
ance. But he took a little while to settle into
the game, and the Rockies took advantage.
Charlie Blackmon led off with a five-pitch
walk. DJ LeMahieu followed with a ground-
rule double on a 3-2 pitch — with the ball
getting lost in the famed ivy in left-center
— and Arenado’s sacrifice fly drove in
Blackmon.
Lester then limited the damage by striking
out Trevor Story and Matt Holliday with
LeMahieu on third.
That one run looked as if it might hold up
as Freeland cruised into the seventh. After
Story robbed Daniel Murphy of a hit with a
diving grab at shortstop in the seventh,
manager Bud Black replaced Freeland with
Adam Ottavino.
Chicago loaded the bases with two outs,
getting some help when Drew Butera was
called for catcher’s interference, but
Ottavino struck out pinch-hitter Jason
Heyward to end the inning.
The Cubs got another chance when
Anthony Rizzo singled with two outs in the
eighth, and Maddon went for it. He ran for
his star first baseman with speedy Terrance
Gore, who promptly swiped second.
Ottavino had an 0-2 count on Baez when
his third pitch got too much of the plate. The
free-swinging slugger drove it into the gap
in left-center for a tying double, easily scor-
ing Gore from second and sending a charge
through the crowd.

Seattle expansion
bid moving forward
NEW YORK — The NHL is mov-
ing forward with plans to expand
to Seattle.
Commissioner Gary Bettman
said Tuesday the Board of
Governors’ executive committee
recommended proceeding with
Seattle’s expansion application,
with an eye on voting to approve
the league’s 32nd franchise in
December. The recommendation
came a few hours after key stake-
holders presented their case to the
committee and hit it off enough
that Seattle could be awarded a
team two months from now.
“The notion is have the board
vote on expansion, ” Bettman
said. “And assuming, as I think
everybody is, that it would be
approved — I don’t want to be pre-
sumptuous of the board’s preroga-
tive — but everything seems to be
on track.”
It was the best possible news
that could have come out of the
meetings for proponents of the

NHL in Seattle. Bettman agreed
with Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan
that the preference is for the team
to begin play in the 2020-21 sea-
son, and that’s still a very real
possibility as long as renovations
to KeyArena in downtown Seattle
proceed as scheduled.
“I’m very confident we’re going
to be able to move forward and get
what we need from the NHL and the
team and stick to the schedule so
we have hockey in 2020,” Durkan
said. “They know we want it in
2020 and (the league would) like to
have it in 2020, too, if we get the
team.”
When the board next meets Dec.
3-4, Bettman expects a full report
on Seattle expansion and said the
goal is to for the governors to
vote at that time, with 24 of 32
needed for approval. It’s conceiv-
able the board votes to give
Seattle the green light for 2020

option to push things back to

Robust grilled cheese sandwiches for adults, not just kids
BY AMERICA’S TEST KITCHEN
Grilled cheese has a kids’ menu reputation,
but just a few tweaks make it a sophisticated
dinner option.
To create a sandwich with more robust flavor
and personality without going overboard on
toppings and additions, we focused on the
cheese. Our recipe began by mixing flavorful
aged cheddar with a small amount of Brie and
some wine in a food processor. Those two
ingredients helped the cheddar melt evenly
without becoming greasy.
A little bit of shallot increased the sand-
wiches’ complexity without detracting from
the cheese, and a smear of mustard-butter on
the bread added a sharp bite. Look for a ched-
dar aged for about one year (avoid cheddar aged
for longer; it won’t melt well). To bring the
cheddar to room temperature quickly,
microwave the pieces until warm, about 30

“Redwood City is not in line for any grade

not in line now for any grade separations. The
studies that are going to be underway are
going to help us put Redwood City in line,”
said Councilman Jeff Gee.
A study in 2009 estimated the cost of a grade
separation at the Whipple Avenue crossing to
be between $150 and $300 million, while ele-
vating the railroad between Whipple Avenue
and Maple Street would cost about $500 mil-
lion. During the meeting, Assistant City
Manager Aaron Aknin said those numbers
have likely doubled by now.

It will cost $850,000 to study grade separa-
tion at Whipple Avenue and the city has
already secured $750,000 from the San Mateo
County Transportation Authority’s Measure A
Grade Separation Program. Redwood City has
committed $100,000, or 11.77 percent of
total costs, to the project, according to a staff
report. That money was approved in the budg-
et for fiscal year 2018-2019 and will come
from the Traffic Mitigation Fees Fund.
There are eight Caltrain crossings and so far
two of them have been grade separated:
Jefferson Avenue was constructed below the
tracks and Woodside Road over the tracks. The
remaining six at-grade crossings have been
identified as “signature projects” in
RWCmoves, the city’s recently adopted trans-
portation plan. A community survey found
that a Whipple Avenue grade separation proj-

City. The area is regularly congested during
commute times and as of August 2017, there
have been seven collisions at the crossing,
including one pedestrian injury and two driver
fatalities.
Gee also celebrated grade separation as the
only way to increase Caltrain service.
Grade separation can be done in a variety of
ways and councilmembers specifically agreed
to not pursue trench or tunnel options because
of the high cost of those methods. Whatever
method or scope of work is finally agreed
upon, the project is still far from becoming a
reality.
“Even the best-case scenario now given the
timeline, we’re not going to see construction
until 2030 or 2035 maybe if we get the fund-
ing in place,” Gee said. “My advice to the
council is don’t ever stop planning, because

best for Redwood City.”
In other business, the council received a
presentation on plans to offer a reduction in
health benefits for retired city workers hired
after September of this year.
If all of the city’s employee groups agree to
a second tier with fewer benefits for new hires,
the city could save $2.4 million over the life-
time of current active employees, according to
a staff report. Savings for all employee groups
for fiscal year 2018-19 are estimated to be
$262,000 and would increase over time.
Employees in the second tier will receive a
stipend that won’t exceed 90 percent of the
California Public Employees’ Retirement
System Bay Area Kaiser Premium for employ-
ee-only coverage, according to the report.
The city is currently in conversations with
all of its employee groups about the change,
and so far the Redwood City Police
Supervisors Association and Chief Officers
Association have agreed to them.

there, later realizing the only thing he could
possibly teach is entrepreneurship. He admit-
ted there were times he grew frustrated with the
long planning process for the university but
later appreciated how big a change the school
was for prime downtown spot, especially now
that the school has welcomed hundreds of stu-
dents from dozens of countries and launched
more than 350 companies since it was founded
in 2012.
For five weeks in the summer and four weeks
in the fall, budding entrepreneurs develop their
mission as “heroes” and do whatever it takes to
be successful, said Draper. And though word
about Draper University has spread — becom-
ing part of the curriculum of colleges like
Arizona State University offering a “Semester
in Silicon Valley” program — he said the syn-
ergy between the startups spawned by the uni-
versity, his venture fund Draper Associates and
the accelerator Boost VC his son Adam Draper
manages has flourished over the years. He said
Draper University students and the network
projects and startups the incubator and acceler-
ator can consider funding.
Draper admitted it’s easy to think about the
ways things turned out from hindsight and see
a clear plan to create a school that would
become the birthplace of startups aimed at
developing technology capable of detecting
cancer or improving dairy delivery services in
China. And though the project has come a long
way since he first conceived of starting a resi-
dential school of entrepreneurship, the 60-
year-old has a lot more in mind for the city.
“We just try to improve it one step at a
time,” he said. “It’s like you’re building some-
thing just one brick every day, and it just keeps
getting better.”
Draper has pegged mid- to late-October for
the launch of a virtual reality arcade at 37 E.
Fourth Ave. Dubbed Hero Hangout, the space
has served as a lounge where Draper University
students could relax or play video games, but
will be transformed into a showcase of the lat-
est virtual reality technology, explained
Daniel Wiegand, a program director for
Draper’s foundation The Hero Institute.
By providing visitors with a pay-to-play
experience of virtual reality stations allowing
them to use flight, racing and roller-coaster
is aimed at providing the general public a
chance to test very expensive technologies
and better understand their potential, said
Wiegand.
Having recently acquired the Peninsula
Beauty Supply building at 980 S. Amphlett
Blvd. for his foundation, Draper is also just
beginning to form plans for new maker space
allowing patrons to rent space and equipment
like lathes, laser cutters and 3D printers.
“We just want people to be able to create
these amazing things,” he said. “We think that
that’s going to be another really great addition
in San Mateo.”
Ever since his time on the California State
Board of Education, Draper said he began
thinking about how he could help solve issues
he saw percolating throughout the state, a
government he felt was delivering low-quality
education and crumbling infrastructure. After
he unsuccessfully advocated for a statewide ini-
tiative he believed would have given parents
vouchers for private schools and more choices
to pull their children out of failing schools in
2000, Draper turned his attention to an initia-
tive to split California into six states, a move-
ment he felt could give the state a fresh start.
Draper believes the state has fostered a heav-
ily-regulated business climate pushing grow-
created, out of the state. By creating new states
and making way for new leadership, govern-
ments would have to compete with each other
for talent, he said. Though his plan to split the
state into six pieces didn’t qualify for past bal-
lots, Draper was successful this year in gather-
ing the hundreds of thousands of signatures
required to qualify an effort to split California
into three states.
With polls showing more and more residents
lending support to the “Three Californias” ini-
tiative, Draper was determined to see where the
growing momentum behind the “Three
Californias” initiative would go. But he said
the state Supreme Court’s July ruling in favor
of a lawsuit filed against the initiative and
backed by unions proved his point that unions
are in control of the state government.
“What kind of democracy do we live in?” he
said. “We didn’t get to vote.”
But with 50 to 60 buses making stops at
Draper University as they bring tourists to
Silicon Valley landmarks and several projects
he’s started closer to home, Draper has plenty
to focus on in San Mateo.
“It’s like they go to the Google campus,
they go to Stanford … then they come here,”
he said. “It’s a thing.”

tingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or es-
tate, or both, of Alexander Leon Guerrero
Borja. A Petition for Probate has been
filed by Dinah Borja in the Superior
Court of California, County of San Mateo.
The Petition for Probate requests that
Dinah Borja be appointed as personal
representative to administer the estate of
the decedent.
The petition requests authority to admin-
ister the estate under the Independent
Administration of Estates Act. (This au-
thority will allow the personal representa-
tive to take many actions without obtain-
ing court approval. Before taking certain
very important actions, however, the per-
sonal representative will be required to
give notice to interested persons unless
they have waived notice or consented to
the proposed action.) The independent
administration authority will be granted
unless an interested person files an ob-
jection to the petition and shows good
cause why the court should not grant au-
thority.
A hearing on the petition will be held in
this court as follows: OCT. 29 2018 at
9:00 a.m., Dept. 28, Superior Court of
California, County of San Mateo, 400
County Center, Redwood City, CA
94063.
If you object to the granting of the peti-
tion, you should appear at the hearing
and state your objections or file written
objections with the court before the hear-
ing. Your appearance may be in person
or by your attorney.
If you are a creditor or a contingent cred-
itor 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 representa-
tive, as defined in section 58(b) of the
California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days
from the date of mailing or personal de-
livery to you of a notice under sectioin
9052 of the California Probate Code.Oth-
er California statutes and legal authority
may affect your rights as a creditor. You
may want to consult with an attorney
knowledgeable 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 DE-
154) of the filing of an inventory and ap-
praisal of estate assets or of any petition
or account as provided in Probate Code
section 1250. A Request for Special No-

THE DAILY JOURNAL
Lawmakers buying into ‘Goblin’ found
school security companies at the edge of
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Security companies spent years pushing
schools to buy more products — from “bal-
listic attack-resistant” doors to smoke can-
nons that spew haze from ceilings to con-
fuse a shooter. But sales were slow, and
industry’s campaign to free up taxpayer
money for upgrades had stalled.
That changed last February, when a former
student shot and killed 17 people at a
Florida high school. Publicly, the rampage
reignited the U. S. gun-control debate.
Privately, it propelled industry efforts to
sell school fortification as the answer to the
mass killing of American kids.
Since that attack, security firms and non-
profit groups linked to the industry have
persuaded lawmakers to elevate the often-
costly “hardening” of schools over other
measures that researchers and educators say
are proven to reduce violence, an Associated
Press investigation shows.
The industry helped Congress draft a law
that committed $350 million to equipment
and other school security over the next
decade. Nearly 20 states have come up with
another $450 million, and local school dis-
tricts are reworking budgets to find more
money.
Most everyone agrees that schools can be
more secure with layers of protection, such
as perimeter fencing, limited entrances and
hiding spaces inside classrooms.
But there’s no independent research sup-
Four arrested in connection
with violent Virginia rally
CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. — Four mem-
bers of a militant white supremacist group
from California have been arrested on
charges they traveled to Virginia last year to
incite a riot and attack counterprotesters at
a white nationalist rally that turned deadly,
court documents unsealed Tuesday say.
The defendants — Benjamin Drake Daley,
Michael Paul Miselis, Thomas Walter
Gillen and Cole Evan White — are part of
the Rise Above Movement, which espouses
anti-Semitic views and meets regularly in
public parks to train in boxing and other
fighting techniques, according to an affi-
davit.
The affidavit alleges the four men were
“among the most violent individuals pres-
ent in Charlottesville” on Aug. 11 and 12 of

porting claims that much of the high-tech
hardware and gadgets schools are buying
will save lives, according to two 2016
reports prepared for the U. S. Justice
Department. As with high-profile shoot-
ings in the past, that has not stopped indus-
try representatives from rushing in, some
misusing statistics on school violence to
stoke fears that “soft target” schools could
be victims of terrorist attacks or negligence
lawsuits.
“School safety is the Wild, Wild West,”
said Mason Wooldridge, a security consult-
ant who helps school districts assess their
vulnerabilities. “Any company can claim
anything they want.”
Wooldridge knows from experience.
Several years ago, he helped outfit an
Indiana high school with a $500,000 secu-
rity system that includes smoke cannons.
Now out of sales, he says a school that
wanted a system with the same level of secu-
rity could get it for about $100,000, using
less expensive but equally effective equip-
ment.
Many proponents of hardening a school
like an airport or police station have back-
grounds in law enforcement or the military.
Some have little experience or qualifica-
tion. The Ohio man dubbed “Joe the
Plumber” during the 2008 presidential cam-
paign has been appearing on school safety
conference panels to hawk a cheaper lock-
down alternative.
Around the nation
last year. It says photos and video footage
shows they attacked counterprotesters,
“which in some cases resulted in serious
injuries.”
The men have also taken part in “acts of
violence” at political rallies in Huntington
Beach and Berkeley, California, and other
places, the affidavit alleges.
“These guys came to Charlottesville in
order to commit violent acts, and it wasn’t
the first time they’d done it,” U.S. Attorney
Thomas Cullen said at a news conference
held to announce the charges.
The four have been arrested and are await-
ing their initial hearings, according to
another court filing in the case. It wasn’t
immediately clear if they have attorneys
who could comment on their behalf.

in San Francisco
Educators worry that hardening will
siphon focus and money from programs
that prevent bullying and counsel at-risk
kids. Students have reported in government
surveys that visible security measures like
metal detectors and armed officers make
them feel less safe.
Industry representatives say they support
other solutions to preventing school gun
deaths, but insist hardening hasn’t gotten
the chance it deserves.
“There really needs to be a change in
thinking that recognizes security is a pri-
mary need in schools,” said Jake Parker,
director of government relations for the
Security Industry Association, which has
been central to the hardening effort. Also,
he acknowledged, “The more schools pro-
tect themselves, the better it is for indus-
try.”
Revenue for school security companies
would grow even more than analysts project
if the industry succeeds in plans to craft
state legislation that would set minimum
standards for campus equipment purchases.
There are no widely accepted, independent
standards for school building security, as
there are for the plumbing, fire protection
systems and even athletic bleachers on
campus. To fill that void, security compa-
nies have promoted their own takes on what
“best practices” for school security should
be. At least one state has turned such stan-
dards into law.
Police: Boy brings gun to
Florida school; threatens others
LAUDERHILL, Fla. — Authorities say a 9-
year-old boy brought a loaded gun to his
Florida school and aimed it at three class-
mates.
News outlets report the boy was arrested
Tuesday at Lauderhill Paul Turner Elementary
School, near Fort Lauderdale.
Police say the boy made threatening com-
ments to his classmates, and one of the stu-
dents told school officials. A school resource
officer responded and took the handgun.
Police were trying to determine where the
boy found the gun and what prompted him to
bring it to school.
The boy was taken to the county’s juvenile
detention facility. He faces charges of posses-
sion of a firearm on school property and three
counts of aggravated assault.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. — A scrawny dwarf
planet nicknamed the Goblin has been discov-
ered well beyond Pluto.
A round frozen world just 186 miles (300
kilometers) across, the Goblin was spotted by
astronomers in 2015 around Halloween, thus its
spooky name. But it wasn’t publicly unveiled
until Tuesday following further observations
with ground telescopes.
Scott Sheppard of the Carnegie Institution for
Science, one of the astronomers who made the
discovery, said the Goblin is on the small end
for a dwarf planet. It is officially known as 2015
TG387 by the International Astronomical
Union’s Minor Planet Center.
This is the third dwarf planet recently found to
be orbiting on the frigid fringes of our solar
system.
Goblin’s orbit is extremely elongated — so
stretched out, in fact, that it takes 40,000 years
for it to circle the sun.
At its most distant, the Goblin is 2,300 times
farther from the sun than Earth. That’s 2,300
astronomical units, or AU. One AU is the dis-
tance from Earth to the sun, or roughly 93 mil-
lion miles (150 million kilometers).
At its closest, the Goblin is 65 times farther
from the sun than Earth, or 65 AU. Pluto, by
comparison, is approximately between 30 and
50 AU.
Sheppard, along with Northern Arizona
University’s Chad Trujillo and the University of
Hawaii’s David Tholen, spotted the Goblin in
October 2015 when it was relatively nearby —
around 80 AU.
The two other dwarf planets are Sedna, dis-
covered in 2003, which is about 620 miles
(1,000 kilometers) across, and 2012 VP113,
about 310 miles (500 kilometers). They were
found by some of the same astronomers.
Thousands — even a million — more such
objects could be way out there orbiting in the
so-called Inner Oort Cloud, according to the
researchers. They’re in hot pursuit of them, as
well as a potentially bigger-than-Earth planet
known as Planet 9, or Planet X, believed by
some scientists to be orbiting at a distance of
hundreds of AU.
“These objects are on elongated orbits, and
we can only detect them when they are closest

Desperation, death toll grow from Indo quake
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
PALU, Indonesia — Trucks carry-
ing food for desperate survivors of
the earthquake on Indonesia’s
Sulawesi island rolled in with a
police escort Tuesday to guard
against looters, while the death
toll from the disaster soared past
1,200.
Four days after the magnitude 7.5
earthquake and tsunami struck,
supplies of food, water, fuel and
medicine had yet to reach the hard-
est-hit areas outside Palu, the
largest city that was heavily dam-
aged. Many roads in the earthquake
zone are blocked and communica-
tions lines are down.
“We feel like we are stepchildren
here because all the help is going
to Palu,” said Mohamad Taufik, 38,
from the town of Donggala, where
five of his relatives are still miss-
ing. “There are many young chil-
Scientists from US, France, Canada win Nobel for laser
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
STOCKHOLM — Three scientists
from the United States, Canada and
France won the Nobel Prize in
physics Tuesday for work with lasers
described as revolutionary and
bringing science fiction into reality.
The American, Arthur Ashkin,
entered the record books of the
Nobel Prizes by becoming the oldest
laureate at age 96. Donna Strickland,
of the University of Waterloo in
Canada, became the first woman to
win a Nobel in three years and is
only the third to have won the prize
for physics.

The death toll reached 1,234,
national disaster agency
spokesman Sutopo Purwo Nugroho
said in Jakarta, the capital.
Hundreds of other people were
injured, and scores of uncounted
bodies could still be buried in col-
lapsed buildings in Sigi and
Balaroa under quicksand-like mud
caused by Friday’s quake.
The U.N. humanitarian office
reported that “needs are vast,” with
people urgently requiring shelter,
clean water, food, fuel and emer-
gency medical care.
Water is the main issue because
most of the supply infrastructure
has been damaged, U.N. deputy
spokesman Farhan Haq told
reporters at U.N. headquarters in
New York.

on the way with police escorts to
guard against looters. Many gas
stations were inoperable either
because of quake damage or from
people stealing fuel, Nugroho
said.
The frustration of waiting for
days without help has angered
some survivors.
