For 52 years, the Japanese Garden in
San Mateo’s Central Park has given
Peninsula residents a chance to step

Featuring carefully pruned ever-

around a pond with dozens of colorful
koi fish, the garden was designed in
partnership with San Mateo’s sister

manager David Fink.

Burlingame neighborhood traffic crackdown lauded
Officials praise enhanced mitigations, while recognizing room for improvement
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Burlingame officials are making inroads
in their push to improve traffic and parking
problems in the Lyon Hoag neighborhood,
but more work remains on the horizon to
ameliorate all residents’ concerns.
Officials detailed during the City Council
meeting, Monday, Oct. 1, the heightened
enforcement and mitigation measures
brought forward in the wake of frustrations
shared by members of the community on the
east side of Burlingame.
While most acknowledged the calming
measures have been generally effective,
some wishing to establish a neighborhood
parking permit program claim more effort is
required to build a consensus on the propos-
al.
City Manager Lisa Goldman laid out the
variety of programs which have been suc-
cessful in tamping down speeding drivers
cutting through the neighborhood, often in
an effort to gain quicker access to Highway
101.
“We’ve actually done quite a bit in the last
four months,” said Goldman, referencing
the increased police presence, new signs
and additional traffic calming measures
recently brought to the neighborhood.
Officials heightened their focus in the
area following an outcry from residents who
claim their quality of life has been harmed
by the uptick in traffic congestion and haz-
ardous driving.
Such concerns gave way to a talk at the
Recreation Center in May designed to pro-
vide a forum for residents and officials to
collaborate on possible solutions to the
neighborhood’s issues.
Establishing a permit program designed
to discourage nearby workers and travelers
from parking in the neighborhood and
implementing traffic calming measures

intended to reduce cut-through traffic were
among some of the fixes suggested by offi-
cials.
The traffic crackdown has been effective,
as Goldman said police officers have ramped
up their presence and ticketing to dissuade
scofflaws from frequenting the neighbor-
hood.
Police officers stopped 130 cars in the
neighborhood between June and August, a
jump of about 80 cars from the same period
last year. With that increase came more tick-
ets, as 58 drivers were cited over that same
period, up from 20 at the same time last
year, according to data from the police
department.
“We’ve really blanketed the neighbor-
hood, probably much to the chagrin of peo-
ple who were there wanting to do things
they shouldn’t be doing,” said Goldman.
Resident Jennifer Pfaff expressed her
appreciation for the commitment shown by
officials to the enforcement effort.
“We are grateful for the attention that is
being paid to us,” said Pfaff, also recogniz-
ing the additional investment set aside by
officials to continue studying potential
future mitigations, which is slated to
include infrastructure improvements.
Yet despite the progress, some claimed
more work needs to be done, especially in
regards to parking enforcement. Residents
fed up with their inability to find a spot near
their house claim a parking permit program
may be in order to stop non-residents from
stashing their cars for extended periods of
time.
According to reports in the area of aban-
doned vehicles, defined as those which have
been parked for 72 hours or more, 185 cars
were identified in the area between June and
August. Of those, 55 were from Burlingame
residents and 33 were from San Mateo. The
rest were registered to people living else-
where or out of state.
Officials and residents suggested the fre-
quency with which cars are left unattended
for extended periods of time indicates driv-
ers are leaving their cars in the neighbor-
hood then catching a short ride to depart
from San Francisco International Airport.
Neighborhood Laura Hesselgren shared in
plain terms the approach commonly adopt-
ed by many travelers.
“Everybody knows you can go to
Burlingame and park for 72 hours for free,”
she said.
In search of an antidote, some suggested
establishing a permit program would be a
useful initiative. Such an undertaking would
require a supermajority of neighborhood
residents signing off on the proposal.
Residents who favor the program detailed
the difficulties they have encountered in
building consensus, primarily due to obsta-
cles associated with contacting those living
in nearby apartment buildings.
Councilmembers acknowledged accessing
apartment buildings to collect signatures
can be difficult, as they know from their
time campaigning, and suggested working
with landlords or property managers to help
spread the word about the local interest in
parking enforcement.
But Councilwoman Emily Beach said it is

Man behind bars after
outburst at Belmont Library
A San Carlos man accused of driving dan-
gerously into the parking lot of the
Belmont Library, threatening to kill a man
who gave him a disapproving look and
exposing himself to bystanders Tuesday is
behind bars on felony and misdemeanor
charges, according to the San Mateo
County District Attorney’s Office.
At around 10 a.m. Tuesday, 34-year-old
Brent Bickle was seen driving his pickup
truck recklessly into the parking lot of the
Belmont Library at 1110 Alameda de las
Pulgas and pulling his car into a space at a
high speed, making screeching noises with
the truck’s wheels. A 69-year-old man saw
Bickle drive into the lot and stared at him as
he got out of his truck, according to prose-
cutors.
Angered by the man’s look, Bickle
allegedly charged at him, yelling that he

had weapons in his truck and would kill
him, later screaming at others gathered at
the library entrance. After a 29-year-old
woman told him to stop, he allegedly tried
to punch her but missed. He eventually
walked back to his truck and, before he got
back in, allegedly exposed himself, accord-
ing to prosecutors.
To get his license plate information, the
woman Bickle tried to hit followed him in
her car as he drove out of the parking lot.
After driving a short distance, Bickle
allegedly stopped, got out of his car and
kicked her car three times, causing an esti-
mated $1,000 in damage, according to pros-
ecutors.
When police arrived at the scene, Bickle
allegedly said he was having a bad day,
according to prosecutors.
When Bickle appeared in court Thursday,
he allegedly pleaded not guilty to his
charges, which include felony vandalism,
misdemeanor indecent exposure and misde-
meanor challenging another to fight. The
county’s private defender private was
appointed to his case, and he will next
appear in court Oct. 10 for Superior Court
review conference. He remains in custody
on $20,000 bail, according to prosecutors.
Shooting air rifle
at cars leads to arrest
An 18-year-old Belmont man was arrested
and four juveniles were briefly taken into
custody for brandishing replica airsoft rifles
and shooting plastic projectiles at passing
cars in Belmont and San Carlos, the San
Mateo County Sheriff’s Office announced
Thursday.
At about 3:45 p.m. Thursday, Belmont
police responded to a call near Alameda de
las Pulgas and Ralston Avenue in Belmont
where a motorist reported a silver BMW
with five occupants shooting at vehicles.
Police stopped the BMW a short time later
and discovered that the occupants, Noah
Biggs, 18, and four male teens ranging in
age from 15 to 17, had also shot replica air
rifles — used in airsoft sports, similar to
paintball — at cars and pedestrians along
Carlmont Drive and Chula Vista Drive in
Belmont in addition to Crestview Drive and
Club Drive in San Carlos.
Biggs was arrested and booked into
Maguire Correctional Facility in San Mateo
County for brandishing, throwing a projec-
tile at a vehicle and conspiracy. The juve-
niles were released to their parents’ custody
and the case will be forwarded to the District
Attorney’s Office for possible charges, the
Sheriff’s Office reported.
Police are encouraging any other victims
to report incidents by calling the Sheriff’s
Office at (650) 363-4911 or Belmont police

Two Republican senators, two
divergent paths on Kavanaugh
By Matthew Daly and Ken Thomas
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Alaska Sen. Lisa
Murkowski turned against Supreme Court
nominee Brett
Kavanaugh quietly, utter-
ing a single word: “No.”
Sen. Susan Collins of
Maine, her longtime
friend and fellow moder-
ate Republican, spoke on
the Senate floor for 45
minutes, explaining her
Susan Collins support for Kavanaugh in
detail.
Though they reached opposite conclu-
sions, both women had faced similar politi-
cal pressure heading into Friday’s key vote
on Kavanaugh’s high court nomination. As
moderates who support abortion rights,
their joint opposition could have been
enough to sink Kavanaugh, whose nomina-
tion was thrust into uncertainty following
sexual assault allegations.
Ultimately, it was Collins who put
Kavanaugh on the brink of a lifetime
appointment. Minutes after she finished
speaking, West Virginia Democratic Sen.
Joe Manchin said he, too, would back
Kavanaugh, ensuring at least 51 “yes” votes
in the Senate.
All three senators — along with Arizona
Republican Jeff Flake — had been publicly
undecided for weeks as they faced unrelent-
ing pressure from both sides.
In the end, Collins and Murkowski
diverged.
In a Senate speech that was disrupted by
protesters before it began and met with
applause from GOP senators when it
ended, Collins declared, “I will vote to
Judge: Trump administration can’t tie funding to immigration
By Sudhin Thanawala
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO — A U.S. judge in
California struck down an immigration law
Friday that the Trump administration has
used to go after cities and states that limit
cooperation with immigration officials.
The ruling by Judge William Orrick also
directed the U.S. Department of Justice to
give California $28 million that was with-
held over the state’s immigration policies.
It was at least the third decision by a U.S.

Senator Lisa Murkowski talks to reporters about her ‘no’ vote after a procedural vote in the U.S.

confirm Judge Kavanaugh. ”
Collins told a rapt Senate that she does
not believe that sexual assault allegations
against Kavanaugh rise to a level to “fairly
prevent” him from serving on the high
court. Kavanaugh deserves a presumption of
innocence, Collins said, and allegations by
Christine Blasey Ford and other women did
not reach a threshold of certainty.
Murkowski chose the opposite path.
“I believe that Brett Kavanaugh is a good
man. It just may be that in my view he’s not
the right man for the court at this time,”
Murkowski told reporters after voting to
oppose Kavanaugh in a procedural vote
Friday morning.
district court judge in recent months declar-
ing the immigration law unconstitutional.
However, none of the three rulings imme-
diately invalidated enforcement of the law
nationwide. The law at issue forbids states
and cities from blocking officials from
reporting people’s immigration status to
U.S. authorities.
Orrick’s ruling Friday in lawsuits by
California and San Francisco may be the
most significant yet because it applies to
a major target of the administration’s
opposition to sanctuary jurisdictions.
REUTERS
While she respects her colleagues’ sup-
port for Kavanaugh, Murkowski said, “I
also that think we’re at a place where we
need to think about the credibility and
integrity of our institutions.”
Within minutes of their announcements,
potential political challengers to both
Collins and Murkowski emerged.
Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin insinuat-
ed she could run against Murkowski in a
Republican primary, tweeting, “Hey
(at)lisamurkowski — I can see 2022 from
my house.” The tweet was a reference to an
infamous “Saturday Night Live” skit in
which Tina Fey, portraying Palin, said she
could see Russia from her house.
Orrick forbid Attorney General Jeff
Sessions from enforcing the immigration
law against California or any of its cities
or counties.
DOJ spokesman Devin O’Malley declined
comment.
The Trump administration says sanctuary
cities and states allow dangerous criminals
back on the street.
San Francisco and other sanctuary cities
counter that turning local police into immi-
gration officers erodes the trust needed to
get people to report local crimes.

Study looks at San
Francisco quake vulnerability
SAN FRANCISCO — As two of San
Francisco’s most vaunted buildings sink or
crack, an earthquake study recommended re-
inspecting dozens of high-rises and beefing
up construction codes for the growing crop
of skyscrapers in the booming city.
The “Tall Buildings Safety Strategy”
released Thursday listed 156 buildings taller
than 240 feet, most of them in the north-
eastern area.
Some 70 of those buildings used a con-
struction material called welded steel
moment frames and should be re-inspected
to determine whether they were damaged dur-
ing the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake, study
authors said.
It was only after the 1994 Northridge
earthquake in Southern California that
those types of buildings were found to be
susceptible to fracture, the study said.
San Francisco is surrounded by major
earthquake faults, including the famous San
Andreas. A 1906 earthquake that destroyed
much of the city had an estimated magnitude
of 7.7 or higher. The Oct. 17, 1989, Loma
Prieta quake was measured as a magnitude
6.9. It killed more than 60 people and col-
lapsed part of the Bay Bridge.
“We must act before the next earthquake
strikes to ensure the safety of residents,
workers and visitors,” San Francisco City
Administrator Naomi Kelly said.
Rare death row slaying at
California’s San Quentin prison
SACRAMENTO — One condemned inmate
killed another Friday, the first slaying of a
death row inmate in California in more than
20 years, officials said.
Jonathan Fajardo, 30, was stabbed in the
chest and neck with an inmate-made weapon
in a recreational yard of the cell house that
holds the bulk of condemned inmates at San
Quentin State Prison, said corrections
department spokeswoman Terry Thornton.
Luis Rodriguez, 34, is considered the sus-
pect, she said. Investigators were trying to
determine a motive and how he obtained or
was able to make the weapon, she said.
Such slayings are common in California
prisons but rare on death row, where the last
one occurred in 1997.
“It’s very unusual,” said San Francisco
State University associate professor Amy
Smith, who studies capital punishment and
the psychological impacts of death row.
“It’s not supposed to happen, of course.”
There is high security on death row, were
every inmate is housed separately but most
are allowed to congregate in small groups in
the exercise yard where Fajardo was killed,
Thornton said.

Former school worker charged
for lewd texts gets trial date
A former school employee charged
with sending lewd texts to a 14-year-
old student and engaging in inappro-
priate behavior with her in 2017 re-
entered a plea of not guilty Friday in
San Mateo County Superior Court in
Redwood City.
Ian Thomas Whiteman, a 40-year-old
resident of Redwood City, had worked
in the technology department of the
Nueva School’s San Mateo campus for
about two years until he was put on
administrative leave in the summer of
2017 when the teen girl’s parents dis-
covered intimate text conversations
with Whiteman and reported them to
school officials, prosecutors said.
Whiteman entered a not guilty plea
at his original arraignment in January.
Since then, he has been free on
$150,000 bail.

Nobel Peace laureates demand end to sexual violence in war
By Jim Heintz,
Carley Petesch and Mark Lewis
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
OSLO, Norway — Raped after being
forced into sexual slavery by the Islamic
State group, Nadia Murad did not succumb to
shame or despair — the young Iraqi woman
spoke out. Surgeon Denis Mukwege treated
countless victims of sexual violence in war-
torn Congo and told the world of their suf-
fering. Together, they were awarded the
Nobel Peace Prize on Friday for their cam-
paigns to end rape and sexual abuse as
weapons of war.
The award “is partly to highlight the
awareness of sexual violence. But the fur-
ther purpose of this is that nations take
responsibility, that communities take
responsibility and that the international
community take responsibility,” said Berit

“Dear survivors from all over the world, I
would like to tell you that, through this
Nobel Prize, the world is listening to you
and refusing indifference,” Mukwege, 63,
told a news conference outside the hospital
he founded in Bukavu in eastern Congo,
where he has treated tens of thousands of
victims — among them “women, teenage
girls, small girls, babies,” he said Friday.
“The world refuses to remain idle with
arms crossed facing your suffering. We hope
that the world will not put off acting with
force and determination in your favor
because the survival of humanity depends
on you,” Mukwege said.
Murad, 25, was one of an estimated 3,000
girls and women from Iraq’s Yazidi minority
group who were kidnapped in 2014 by IS
militants and sold into sexual slavery. She
was raped, beaten and tortured before man-
aging to escape three months later. After
getting treatment in Germany, she chose to
speak to the world about the horrors faced
by Yazidi women, regardless of the stigma
in her culture surrounding rape.

Video games
By Vishu Prathikanti
W
hen I first moved to
California in 2011, I
would have described
myself as relatively unsocial. I was a
chubby and awkward kid who liked
reading more than playing tetherball
or four-square. Needless to say, I felt a
little bit out of touch from the rest of
my classmates. I would soon find out,
however, that an entire group felt the
same way I did.
It was in the sixth-grade, and I had
just failed to finish an English essay
by the end of my class period. The
technology specialist told me that I
could eat my lunch and come back to
the computer lab when lunch-recess
began (at my school we had lunch
first, then lunch-recess when the
library and computer lab opened up).
When I returned from eating, I found
a massive group of students stopped
at the stairs, blocking my path to the
lab. They gazed intently at the top
and waited, without talking, for the
last few seconds of lunch to end. And
when that bell rang to signal lunch-
recess, I witnessed one of the
strangest sights I had ever seen in
school. The group took off, and start-
ed sprinting up the stairs into the
computer lab. Curiously, I followed
suit and found myself in a meeting of
the Minecraft club.
Ever since then, video gaming has
had a special place in my life, and I
Letters to the editor
Not ‘quick to criticize’
Editor,
I was disappointed by the Daily
Journal’s decision to endorse my two
opponents for election to the
Millbrae City Council (“Holober and
Oliva for Millbrae council” in the
Oct. 5 edition of the Daily Journal).
The glowing review bestowed on my
opponents gives too much credit to a
dysfunctional council that has not
shown true leadership, and little
attention was provided to the multi-
ple failures in solving other chal-
lenges.
Thursday night, I shared my vision
for Millbrae at our candidate forum.
Difficult questions arose regarding
wasteful spending, lack of parking
and bullying on the City Council. My
opponents had difficulty explaining
many of the actions taken in the past
five years they’ve been in office,
including how building a $346,000
holiday ice rink would have been a
respectful use of taxpayer money,
why we waited almost a decade to

believe that was
the moment when I
became a part of
the “gamers” at my
school. 
Sports is an
example that many
tout as the best
team-building
experience in
school. Students find a team in which
they belong, and it is a way to make
friends with an array of diverse and
interesting people. I would argue that
video gaming often achieves the same
things, only in an environment for
non-athletic kids. In joining the
Minecraft club, I seriously learned
from that horde of 20 or so students
how to interact and connect with peo-
ple different from me. In running up
those stairs with my fellow gamers, I
found a place where I  belonged.
One thing I see many parents,
including my teachers, complain
about is how long their kids spend
video gaming. As a result, there are
many who believe that it is gaming
itself that is harmful to their children.
I myself have a 14-year-old brother
that I see spending excessive weekend
hours on his computer. It sometimes
even makes me sad when there will be
hours on end when I simply don’t see
him. 
But this isn’t a sad ending. There
have been — and will be — multiple
times when he talks to me about his
most recent session of gaming with
his friends, and I’m happy that there
begin formation of a business
improvement district, how we are
going to deal with soaring water bills
that are severely impacting residents
on fixed incomes, and whether it’s
appropriate to sell Schultz Park to
pay down the $20 million+ deficit for
the recreation center rebuild.
Throughout this campaign, I have
been amplifying the voices of hun-
dreds of residents who are not being
listened to. I have brought their con-
cerns front and center in this elec-
tion, so I strongly disagree that I am
“a little quick to criticize.” I was
shocked at our Daily Journal inter-
view when Anne Oliva referred to our
downtown as “already vibrant.”
Nothing could be further from the
truth. How can we start taking
Millbrae in the right direction when
our leaders can’t even identify major
issues?
I will continue to focus on what is
important, which is not compiling a
lengthy list of endorsements, but
rather, to spend time meeting with
residents and hearing their feedback

is something that the two of us can
share and discuss other than school.
The social aspect of video gaming
has gotten even bigger than before.
Today even, I see athletes and gamers
alike sharing an interest and under-
standing of video games, and it truly
brings me joy to see gaming culture
becoming more mainstream than it
was when I was in middle school.
I don’t regret the many days I spent
running up those steps to the comput-
er lab after lunch, and I truly think I
would have been worse off without the
Minecraft club. If a child is playing
video games all day long, I would cer-
tainly not condone that behavior. But
to write off video gaming as some-
thing entirely destructive is not the
correct response. As the Greek poet
Hesiod said, “observe due measure;
moderation is best in all things.” And
as I would say, don’t hate the player,
but don’t hate the game either.

Redwood City budget
Editor,
The Redwood City Council is cut-
ting public services and employee
health benefits, and proposing a sales
tax increase to fund future pension
costs (“Redwood City considering
health benefits reduction” in the Sept.
29-30 edition). Yet, as reported in
your paper, the council is also con-
sidering a grade separation at
Whipple Avenue, with a potential
cost of $150 million to $500 mil-
lion. If revenue is really unable to
meet current expenses, does it make
sense to take on massively expensive
new projects?

Community building
I
read all the real estate fliers that come to my house;
like many in the Bay Area I find the behavior of our
real estate markets fascinating. From time to time I
fantasize about selling our place — we could probably get
an absurd amount of money for it — but my wife always
brings me down to earth by asking “where would we go?”
As usual, she’s right. There are plenty of places where we
could go, but all would require that we start over making
friends and establishing ourselves in the community.
Some people seem willing to make that trade, but not me.
I really like my circle of friends, and I really like the com-
munity in which I live.
On Saturday my wife and I walked downtown for our flu
shots. On the way we walked through the crowds attending
the Salsa Festival. The weekend before, we had also
walked downtown, and had observed (but not attended,
alas — we didn’t have tickets) Redwood City’s annual
Oktoberfest celebration. That got me thinking about all
of the great community-building events that Redwood
City hosts each year.
Redwood City is by no means
unique in holding such events,
of course. For instance, I’ve
attended some of the concerts
that San Carlos hosts in Burton
Park, and on a handful of occa-
sions I’ve enjoyed their farm-
ers’ market as well. I’m sure that
all around the Bay Area cities
and towns hold similar events.
But as a resident of Redwood
City, I’m amazed at the number
and variety of events that Greg Wilson
Redwood City (or affiliated
organizations such as the Redwood City Improvement
Association, Redwood City PAL and Redwood City
Kiwanis) put on throughout the year.
Although not every event will appeal to everyone, the
sheer variety of civic events held in Redwood City means
that nearly every resident should be able to find at least
one that speaks to them. If Oktoberfest isn’t your thing,
for instance, perhaps the Salsa Festival is. Do you like
boats? Consider attending PortFest. If you enjoy movies,
check out Movies on the Square. Are your tastes a bit more
highbrow? We’ve got Shakespeare in the Park and the
Classical Music Series in Courthouse Square. Got chil-
dren? Keep an eye out for the Zoppe Italian Family Circus
(now through Nov. 4), Halloween Spooktakular (Oct. 20),
and Hometown Holidays (the first Saturday in December).
And then there is ART on the Square, which should appeal
to nearly everyone.
The events are great, but there is a not-so-hidden motive
behind them: they are intended to bring people together,
with the aim of establishing and strengthening bonds
among the citizenry. As an example, take Redwood City’s
Music in the Park, something my wife and I have been
attending since its inception. At the start, we brought
along our kids and a few close friends, but soon our little
group became a magnet for attracting new people: friends
brought friends, who often ended up becoming friends of
ours. Because people are creatures of habit and tend to sit
in the same places from week to week (and season to sea-
son), we’ve also gotten acquainted with people in nearby
groups, people we likely wouldn’t have met otherwise.
Finally, we haven’t just made new friends: Often we’ve run
into old friends or acquaintances with whom we’ve lost
touch, giving us an opportunity to re-establish former
bonds.
I may not always love the particular music being played
on a given week, but it’s the being with other people that
make the weekly summer concerts truly special. Our group
intentionally sits well back from the concert stage,
enabling us to comfortably chat over shared food and
drink while listening to the music in the background. On
weeks when the music is particularly good we chat a little
less and listen a little more, but always our park get-
togethers are ultimately about solidifying existing friend-
ships and knitting together new ones, all of which serve
to tie my wife and myself more firmly to the community.
These days, with so much animosity and division, we
need to take every opportunity to get to know our fellow
citizens. By putting on events like these, Redwood City
is providing a great number of opportunities to do just
that. It is up to us to take advantage of those opportuni-
ties and make the most of them, by getting to know other
people and perhaps even discussing issues that are impor-
tant to you. Soon you too may discover that Redwood
City is more than just tall buildings and heavy traffic: It is
a community of interesting, caring people. People are
what make Redwood City a truly special place, one that I
can’t envision ever moving away from — no matter how
high home prices get.

Stocks sink as job gains send bond yields higher
By Marley Jay
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — U.S. stock and
bond prices fell again Friday after
the Labor Department said the
economy continues to add jobs at
a strong pace, and investors wor-
ried about a three-day surge in
yields.
The Department of Labor said
employers added significantly
more jobs in July and August than
it previously thought, which made
up for a slightly disappointing
gain in September. That was
another sign economic growth is
likely to continue.
While that’s usually good news
for stocks, the market stumbled
this week as investors sold gov-
ernment bonds at a rapid pace.
That pushed yields to their highest
levels in more than seven years, a
sign that investors are unsure how
high and fast interest rates will
rise.
Kate Nixon, the chief invest-
ment strategist for Northern Trust
Wealth Management, said the
decline in stock and bond prices
started with comments by Federal
Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell
on Wednesday.
In a moderated discussion,
Powell expressed confidence in
the economy and said rising inter-

Down 17-0, Menlo rallies

to beat Half Moon Bay
By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
For a quarter and a half, it
appeared as if the Half Moon Bay
football team was going to waltz
to a win over Menlo School in a
rare afternoon game in Atherton
Friday.
The Cougars scored on their first
three possessions of the game to
take a 17-0 lead with 5:53 left in
the first half.
But Menlo, which appeared con-
fused both offensively and defen-
sively in the opening 15 minutes,
suddenly clicked on both sides of
the ball. The Knights scored a pair
of touchdowns before halftime on
their way to 44 unanswered points
in a 44-25 victory in the Peninsula
Athletic League Bay Division
opener for both teams.
“We came out really slow and
really sluggish, ” said Menlo
coach Josh Bowie. “The end of the
first half is when we started play-
ing Menlo football.”
“Menlo football” means a quick-
strike offense and a tenacious
defense. Menlo quarterback Kevin
Alarcon finally found a rhythm as
he guided the Knights on a six-
play, 54-yard drive, culminating
with a 28-scoring strike to wide
receiver Kevin Chen.
HMB (0-1 PAL Bay, 3-3 overall)
took the ensuing kickoff and
promptly drove to the Menlo 13-
yard line when the momentum
swung to the Knights’ sideline.
On second-and-3, HMB quarter-
back Tristan Hofmann was inter-
cepted by Menlo’s Mafi Latu to
give the Knights one last posses-
sion with under a minute to play in
the half.
Alarcon needed just four plays to
find pay dirt as he hit Chen again
for a 42-yard score. A two-point
conversion cut the HMB lead to
17-14 at halftime.
“[That interception] changes the
momentum, 100 percent,” Bowie
said. “That was the catalyst for the

Second-half explosion Game of the Week

M-A scored four
TDs after halftime
to rout Terra Nova
By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

After a first-half sack-a-thon, the Menlo-

Atherton Bears caught fire in the second
half.
Starting with a 75-yard rushing touch-
down by senior quarterback Jaeden Barker
out the wildcat formation, M-A ran away
with a 30-8 victory over Terra Nova. And in
winning the battle of league unbeaten, the
Bears may just be in a position to run away
with the Peninsula Athletic League Bay
Division.
“It was a sloppy game,” M-A head coach
Adhir Ravipati said. “But any time you win
30-8, you’ll take it. But I didn’t think we
played particularly well.”
Neither side could get anything going in
the way of offense during a defensively
dominated opening half. Terra Nova racked
up four sacks in the first half. M-A countered
with seven, and went on to total nine in the
game.
The only score for either team in the first
half came when Terra Nova botched a snap
on a punt play, forcing punter Giovanni
Borzoni to dive on the loose ball in the end
zone, resulting in a safety with four minutes
remaining in the half to send M-A into the
locker room leading 2-0.
“We thought we had it,” Terra Nova senior
Layne Couri said of his team’s attitude at the
break. “We just thought we were shooting
ourselves in the foot.”
M-A (2-0 in PAL Bay, 4-2 overall) started
the second half with a bang though, cour-
tesy of “Big Play” Barker. The senior was
filling in for the Bears’ injured starting quar-
terback Justin Anderson, but the natural run-
ning back did what he did best on the second
play from scrimmage.
With M-A’s front five spreading the Terra
Nova defensive line, Barker didn’t hesitate
taking the shotgun snap out of the wildcat,
shooting through the A-gap and high-step-
ping through one potential tackle, hitting

Scots overcome
loss of QB Netane
By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
With Friday night’s Capuchino-Carlmont
showdown delayed a half hour due to a bus
debacle, Cap didn’t arrive in Belmont until
approximately 7:15 p.m.
Once the game was underway at 8 p.m.,
the Carlmont Scots were licking their
chops.
Carlmont (2-0- PAL Lake, 4-2 overall)
scored on each of its first two possessions,
then held Cap to just 221 offensive yards as
the Scots rolled to a 28-16 victory.
It was a costly one for the Scots though as
sophomore quarterback Siupeli Netane,
after sustaining a concussion while playing
defense, left the game late in the first half.
His status is uncertain going forward.
“He’s concussed,” Carlmont head coach
Jake Messina said. “So he is going to miss
at least a week. So, it made things a lot
tougher than it had to be.”
Fortunately for the Scots, they have a
variety of weapons out of the backfield.
Messina rode three running backs to victo-
ry, with senior Julian Morin leading the

NAPA — Brandt Snedeker birdied
the final two holes for a 7-under 65
and a three-stroke lead over Phil
Mickelson and two others Friday in
the PGA Tour’s season-opening
Safeway Open.
Playing alongside Hall of Famer
Fred Couples, Snedeker had eight
birdies and a bogey on the North
Course at Silverado Resort and Spa.
The leader won the Wyndham
Championship in August, opening
with a 59 en route to his ninth PGA
Tour title.
“I played really solid golf all the
way around,” Snedeker said. “I only
played two bad shots all day. My
speed has been great for two days.
These green can get away from you
if you’re not paying attention.”
Snedeker had a 13-under 131
total.
Mickelson followed his opening
65 with a 69 to join Michael
Thompson (65) and Ryan Moore
(67) at 10 under.
“I’m cautiously optimistic,”
Mickelson said. “It’s certainly
turning from pessimistic because I
didn’t think that I was going to be
here on the weekend and the next
thing you know I’m up on top of
the leaderboard.”

MENLO
Continued from page 11
Menlo (1-0, 3-2) received the second-half kickoff and pro-
ceeded to score on its third straight drive when Alarcon
found Dillon Grady on a crossing pattern. Grady then
weaved his way to the right sideline before tip-toeing the
line and into the end zone from 34 yards out to give Menlo
a 20-14 lead, one it would not relinquish.
Alarcon completed his first eight passes and finished the
day 10 for 16 for 227 yards and four touchdowns. Chen was
the main recipient, finishing with five catches for 101
yards and two scores. Jaden Richardson caught two passes,
the second of which he turned into a 76-yard touchdown.
Grady caught a pair of passes, including his 31-yard score.
“We know what Menlo can do and they did it well,” said
HMB head coach Keith Holden.
HMB misfired on a field goal attempt on its first drive of
the third quarter and Alarcon was picked off on the Knights’
next possession, but the Menlo defense forced the Cougars
to turn the ball over on downs.
The Knights needed only two plays to find the end zone
on their next drive. After a wide-open Chen dropped a pass
that would have been another score, Alarcon found
Richardson on a crossing pattern. He caught it in stride and

ran away from the HMB defense for a 76-yard score and a 28-
17 Menlo lead with 4:18 left in the third quarter.
“At the beginning (of the game), we were working come-
back routes,” Bowie said. “In the second half, we noticed
more openings in the middle, saw more inside-opening
routes.”
Holden said it took a while for Menlo to figured out the
Cougars’ coverage, which saw them double-teaming Chen.
But Holden’s reason for Menlo suddenly coming alive was
a lot more simple.
“They figured out we don’t cover the pass well,” Holden
said.
From there, the Menlo defense got into the scoring act.
After exchanging possession to start the fourth quarter,
HMB took over at its own 35. Hofmann, who rushed for 206
yards on 34 carries, gained five yards before having the ball
stripped. Grady was Johnny On The Spot, scooped up the
loose ball and sprinted 30 yards for a score and a 36-17 lead.
On the Cougars next possession, Richardson picked off a
Hofmann pass and returned it 55 yards for the Knights’ final
score. Grady added a second interception on the Cougars
next drive.
Cade Duncan finally ended the scoring drought for the
Cougars when he plowed in from a yard out with 3:48 to
play.
While Menlo finished strong, it was HMB that started
quickly. Hofmann was a workhorse as the sophomore

accounted for 403 of the Cougars’ 480 yards of offense. In
addition to his 206 yards rushing, he also completed 12 of
25 passes for 197 yards. Hofmann had a hand in 10 of the
Cougars’ first 12 plays as he guided them to a Oz Monroy
15-yard field goal.
But failing to score a touchdown inside the Menlo 10-yard
line was an omen.
“Lot of empty red-zone trips,” Holden said.
The HMB defense was swarming early on as well as it
forced a Menlo punt on its first possession of the game. The
Cougars took over at their own 28 and needed six plays to
take a 10-0 lead. The big play was a 52-yard completion
from Hofmann to freshman Quinn McCauley, and Hofmann
capped the drive with a 1-yard run.
The Cougars got the ball again early in the second quarter
and embarked on the longest drive of the game. Starting
from their own 31, the Cougars used 12 plays to cover the
distance, with Hofmann scoring from four yards out on a
toss sweep to put the Cougars up 17-0.
“We can score pretty quickly, but we weren’t playing the
type of football we expect,” Bowie said. “Once we rectified
that, we were good. [We] came out and executed (in the sec-
ond half).”

Cardinals rookie QB return to Seattle
By Josh Dubow

SANTA CLARA — San Francisco coach
Kyle Shanahan took only a cursory look at
Josh Rosen in his draft preparation last
spring because the 49ers already had fran-
chise quarterback Jimmy
Garoppolo in place.
Shanahan studied
Rosen a lot more closely
this week after the rookie
made his first career start
in the NFL. Now he has
to face him when the
Arizona Cardinals (0-4)
visit the 49ers (1-3).
Josh Rosen Shanahan came away
impressed, even though
Rosen threw for only 180 yards and one
touchdown in a 20-17 loss to Seattle.
“He’s a very good thrower. He made some
very good throws in that game,” Shanahan
said. “They definitely, I believe, should
have won that game. They had two big ones
that were dropped, I think two touchdowns.
It was impressive. So, as similar to college,
we know we’re going against a good player.
He definitely helps them.”
Arizona needs plenty of help as the NFL’s
only winless team. The Cardinals have lost
their first four games for the first time since
1986 — two years before they moved from
St. Louis to the desert.
The Cardinals’ 37 points are their fewest
after four games since 1945 and the fewest
in league since Jacksonville had 31 in

“There’s not a lot of backs that can say

Jon Gruden said about Lynch. “This guy
likes the physical grind and I think he feeds
off of it.”

games since the expansion Texans had 774
in 2002.
The lack of early success hasn’t shaken
the confidence Rosen gained in college at
UCLA when he played well enough to
become the 10th overall pick in this year’s
draft.
“I’m a very confident person,” he said.
“Even if I have no reason to, I’ll find a way
to fool myself into going out there with full
confidence that we’re going to win every
single game we play. Every time I step on
the field, I expect to throw a touchdown or
hand off a touchdown or lead the team to the
end zone in some way. In my head, if I don’t,
it’s a surprise and something’s wrong and
we’ve got to fix it so that we do next time.”
Here are some other things to watch:
HARD HITS
Niners QB C.J. Beathard took a beating
once again last week in his first start after
Garoppolo went down with a season-ending
injury. Beathard was sacked once and took
nine hits in a loss at the Chargers behind a
makeshift offensive line hurt by knee
injuries to tackles Joe Staley and Mike
McGlinchey. Center Weston Richburg is
also nursing a knee injury this week, leav-
ing major questions for the 49ers. Beathard
took 19 sacks and 57 hits in five-plus
games as a rookie last year.
“He played in a number of games last year
where the O-Line was pretty beat up. That
happened to him a couple days ago, also,”
Shanahan said. “I think he’s gotten better
knowing where people are, faster with it.
That happens the more you play in a sys-
tem.”
Whisenhunt said. “I think he has been driv-
en to get his game to another level, and I
think we’re seeing the benefit to that. He’s
worked hard. He’s studied it.”
Both teams are looking for a win to avoid
falling to 0-2 in division games.
Quarterback Philip Rivers said the Chargers
need to start stringing together wins to
avoid falling further behind unbeaten Kansas
City.
“I think we’re just playing a little better
all the way around. A little more complemen-
tary all the way around,” Rivers said. “But
certainly, you know, this is no time to keep
going win-loss, win-loss, win-loss. So it’s
an opportunity for us to get our second win
in a row and get above .500 and keep
going.”
Here are some other things to watch as the
Chargers look for their third straight victory
over the Raiders:
CARR VS. RIVERS
Oakland’s Derek Carr and Rivers have
split their first eight meetings. Both are
coming into the game with momentum.
Carr is looking for his third straight 300-
yard game, which would be the first time
that has happened in his five-year career.
Rivers has thrown 11 touchdowns, tying for
the most he has thrown in the first four
games.
PASS RUSH HELP
The Chargers are hoping defensive tackle
Corey Liuget’s return from a four-game sus-
pension for violating the league’s policy
on performance enhancers helps improve a
pass rush that has struggled.
Los Angeles has only eight sacks as
Melvin Ingram has been frequently been
double-teamed. Defensive end Joey Bosa
will miss his fifth straight game due to a
foot injury.

SEATTLE — Kevin Durant got off the bus
inside the loading dock of KeyArena about
two hours before tipoff and made a quick
glance toward the court, visible through the
tunnel.
He was back where his NBA career began
more than a decade ago.
“When I woke up from my pregame nap I
was nervous,” Durant said. “I never felt that
way coming into a game, especially a pre-

was set up for that moment I guess it was a

Durant was back in Seattle on Friday night

back grinded for 158 rushing yards on 19
carries and a touchdown.
But it was junior fly back Jonaven Kuhn
— despite being credited for just four carries
for 17 yards — who put on the show. Yes,
one of Kuhn’s runs was a 7-yard score to
open the fourth quarter, helping ice the
game for Carlmont with a 21-7 lead.
On Carlmont’s next possession, though,
Kuhn showed off his wheels with not one,
but two epic sprints to the house —  only
both were called back for penalties. His
first, a 58-yard dash to the end zone, was
called back for a chop block at the line of
scrimmage.
“I’m like, ‘I just scored!’” Jonaven Kuhn
said. “And now it’s like, I have to do it all
over again.”
So, he did, this time rambling 71 yards to
the end zone. This time, his effort was nulli-
fied by a holding penalty. The possession
zone that cost Carlmont two points on a
safety to cut the lead to 21-9 with 5:27 to
go.
But, oh the Capuchino turnovers were a
death knell.
The Mustangs (0-1, 3-3) turned over the
ball six times, including fumbles on each of
their first two possessions. Then, three
plays after getting the ball back following
the fourth-quarter safety, Cap quarterback
Brandon Malaingi was picked off by senior
Ralphie Holmes. Malaingi threw one more
INT with two minutes remaining that senior
linebacker Jayden Kuhn ran back 15 yards
for a pick-6.
“Our defense was making plays when we
needed to make plays,” Capuchino head
coach Jay Oca said. “We gave up too much
early and those turnovers just killed us.”
So did Carlmont’s opening two posses-
sions of the game.
After recovering a game-opening onside
kick by Cap, Carlmont marched down the
field. Morin opened with a carry of 9 yards
to advance across midfield. The senior added
runs of 11 and 24 yards, the latter being a
shoved his was across the goal line to give
the Scots a 7-0 lead less than three minutes
into the game.
Carlmont’s defense was only on the field
for two plays before Morin and company
marched back on the field, as the Mustangs
coughed up the ball at their own 18 with Si’i
Tengei recovering. It took the Scots six
plays before they went to the air, and when
they did, they hit pay dirt as Netane rolled
out right and found a wide-open Jake Parker
on a tight end out-route in the end zone to up
the Carlmont lead to 14-0.
Turnovers plagued Cap again, this time
with five minutes left in the half. The
Mustangs were driving, advancing the ball
just inside the Carlmont 10. But on second-
and-goal, Malaingi got flushed out of the
pocket and was under pressure as he looked
to make a desperation throw down the side-
line. The left-handed quarterback, throwing
against his body, was drilled as he released
the ball, causing the ball to careen into the
open field and right to senior linebacker
Darian Dennler for the interception.
“There’s no secrets in our league,” Oca
going to run the football. We were able to
move the ball when we wanted to. We just
made a lot of mistakes.”
Cap’s silver lining on offense was senior
running back Brett Butterfield.
The Scots did a good job of containing the
mutil-dimensional Malaingi, who totaled
just 49 yards of offense. Butterfield rose to
the challenge, though, carrying 21 times
for 94 rushing yards.
“Butters came out and did a great job run-
ning the football,” Oca said. “Full speed. …
He’s just like a bowling bowl.”
Malaingi did have one play to add to his
highlight reel, though. Following Jayden
Kuhn’s pick-6 in the closing minutes,
Malaingi took the ensuing kickoff 88 yards
for a touchdown to cap the night’s scoring.
Still, the Carlmont defense held Cap in
check all night. This will loom large in the
coming weeks with Netane’s status in
doubt.
“Our defense is pretty good,” Messina
said. “So we’ll have to lean on them a little
bit.”

M T Kershaw allows 2 hits, Dodgers

Opening Soon!! blank Braves 3-0 for 2-0 lead

LOS ANGELES — Clayton Kershaw tossed eight innings of
two-hit ball in the Dodgers’ second straight playoff shutout, and
Manny Machado slugged a two-run homer as Los Angeles beat the
Atlanta Braves 3-0 on Friday night for a 2-0 lead in their NL
Division Series.
The Dodgers used a nearly identical formula to win 6-0 in Game
1 behind Hyun-Jin Ryu, who allowed only four two-out singles
over seven innings, and home runs by Joc Pederson, Max Muncy
and Enrique Hernandez.
Kershaw was even better. The left-hander struck out three and
walked none in remaining unbeaten against Atlanta throughout
his illustrious career.
Los Angeles can sweep the best-of-five series in Game 3 on
Sunday in Atlanta, where the Baby Braves will be looking to
score for the first time this postseason.
Kershaw got bypassed as the Game 1 starter in favor of Ryu after
the three-time NL Cy Young Award winner had started eight of the
Dodgers’ past 10 postseason openers. Manager Dave Roberts
said it was done to give both Ryu and Kershaw five days of rest
between starts.
One more victory would put Los Angeles in the NL
Championship Series for the third straight year. The Dodgers beat
the Cubs in the NLCS last season and lost to them in that round in
2016.
Kershaw ran out to the mound as though he was going to pitch
the ninth, bringing cheers from the sellout crowd of 54,452. But
when Roberts went out to pull Kershaw after 85 pitches, fans
booed.
Kenley Jansen gave up a one-out single to Ronald Acuna Jr.
before earning the save.
Machado hit a two-run shot on a 3-0 pitch from Anibal Sanchez
with two outs in the first. Joc Pederson doubled leading off.

Red Sox beat Yankees 5-4 in ALDS
BOSTON — Chris Sale struck out eight for
his first career postseason win, J.D. Martinez
hit a three-run homer and the Boston Red Sox
sweated out their shaky bullpen to beat the
New York Yankees 5-4 on Friday night in
Game 1 of the AL Division Series.
One year after he was pounded by Houston
in his playoff debut, Sale took a four-hit
shutout into the sixth inning. The Yankees
loaded the bases in the sixth and again in the
seventh, cutting the deficit to 5-3. Aaron
Judge homered off Craig Kimbrel to lead off
the ninth before the Red Sox closer retired the
next three batters, striking out Giancarlo
Stanton and Luke Voit for the save.
Game 2 is Saturday night, with Boston

David Price is 0-8 in his career as a starter in

In the first playoff matchup between the

Sox took a 5-0 lead against Yankees starter
J.A. Happ and then white-knuckled it after
Sale left with two on and one out in the sixth.

MILWAUKEE — It turns out there is way

Christian Yelich.
The rest of this Brew Crew can play, too.
Especially those guys in that loaded
bullpen.
Jhoulys Chacin pitched five sparkling
innings before turning over things to the
relievers, Mike Moustakas contributed two
more big hits and the Brewers blanked the
Colorado Rockies 4-0 Friday to take a 2-0
lead in their NL Division Series.
While the sweet-swinging Yelich had a
quiet day by his lofty standards, the NL
Central champions showed off their sup-
porting cast on the way to their 10th
straight win going back to an impressive
finish to the regular season.
Erik Kratz had two hits and two RBIs,
Hernan Perez hit two ground-rule doubles
and Milwaukee’s bullpen closed the door
after Chacin delivered in his playoff debut.
Game 3 is Sunday at Coors Field.

HOUSTON — George Springer and the
Houston Astros picked up right where they
left off last postseason, hitting four home
runs to power past the Cleveland Indians 7-
2 Friday in Game 1 of the AL Division
Series.
Alex Bregman, Jose Altuve and Martin
Maldonado also connected for the Astros,
who hit a World Series-record 15 homers
last year in winning their first champi-
onship.
Much was made about the pitching
prowess these teams possess in the days
leading up to this game. But it was a bunch
of longballs to put the Astros ahead in this

the accelerator and sprinting right up the
heart of the field for a 75-yard touchdown.
“That was great,” M-A senior lineman Noa
Ngalu said. “That started building the
momentum and everyone started going off.”
The Bears went on to score three touch-
downs in the third quarter to break it open.
The M-A defense, still in shutdown mode,
forced a three-and-out. And with the Bears
getting the ball back at their own 47, it took
just two more plays to get in the end zone
again, this time on a 50-yard pass from
Barker to sophomore receiver Troy
Franklin, who nabbed a bubble screen near
the line of scrimmage and bolted up the left
sideline for the score.
Franklin was involved in two more scores,
but both came from the defensive side.
quarter, Terra Nova (1-1, 5-1) advanced to the
M-A 27-yard line. But on third-and-2,
Franklin picked off a Jared Julian pass in the
end zone. Three plays later from the Bears’
20, Barker turned in his third big play of the
quarter, hitting senior Malik Johnson 10
yards up field, and Johnson did the rest, get-
ting inside the cornerback in a 1-on-1
matchup and flying up the middle of the field
to pay dirt for an 80-yard touchdown score.
Franklin pushed the score to 30-0 midway
through the fourth quarter, picking off a
Julian pass. With Terra Nova trying to force
the ball in the end zone from M-A’s 17,
Julian’s pass over the middle got tipped up
and into the arms of Franklin, who nabbed
the ball at the Bears’ 4 and returned it 96
yards for a pick-6.
“You have to remember, he’s still just a
sophomore,” Ravipati said. “I think Troy
Franklin is going to be playing football for
as long as he wants to.”
Barker finished the game with 265 total
one touchdown, while going 7 for 11 pass-
ing for 171 yards and two more scores. He
ran for over 100 forward yards, but got hit
for negative yards on three of his last four
carries to knock him down to 94 rushing
yards.
“I thought that we kept our heads in the
game,” Couri said. “All of their touchdowns
were on big plays. So it was just the little
things that hurt us.”
Julian finally drove his offense downfield
on Terra Nova’s last possession to break up
the shutout. After moving the ball to the
Tigers’ 41, Julian completed consecutive
passes of 18 and 17 yards.
He then nearly through another pick-6
when junior cornerback J.D. Carson flew
toward the sideline to get between the ball
and the receiver. Carson had nothing but
daylight for the length of the field as the ball
hit him in the hands, but he couldn’t hold
on, giving Terra Nova another chance.
This time, Julian converted, connecting
touchdown; Julian then completed a 2-point
conversion pass to Bendo to finish the day’s
scoring.
Julian took a beating all game long, con-
sistently getting racked by hard hits from
the M-A defense. The 6-3, 210-pound senior
just kept bouncing back to his feet though.
All told, he gained 284 total yards, going
14-of-27 passing for 230 yards, while rush-
ing 23 times for 54 yards.
“He’s a player,” Couri said. “He’s a real
competitor. I love Jared. He gets emotional,
but it’s for the better. He always does what’s
best for us.”
With the win, M-A is technically tied for
first place with two other teams; Sacred
Heart Prep and Menlo School, both opening
league play Friday, are each 1-0. The Bears
remain the top-ranked team in the PAL,
entering the day No. 17 in the San Francisco
Chronicle Metro rankings.

Therapy dogs can spread superbugs to kids, hospital finds

By Mike Stobbe
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Therapy dogs can bring
more than joy and comfort to hospitalized
kids. They can also bring stubborn germs.
Doctors at Johns Hopkins Hospital in
Baltimore were suspicious that the dogs
might pose an infection risk to patients
with weakened immune systems. So they
conducted some tests when Pippi, Poppy,
Badger and Winnie visited 45 children get-
ting cancer treatment.
They discovered that kids who spent
more time with the dogs had a 6 times
greater chance of coming away with super-
bug bacteria than kids who spent less time
with the animals. But the study also found
that washing the dogs before visits and
using special wipes while they’re in the
hospital took away the risk of spreading
that bacteria.
The results of the unpublished study were
released Friday at a scientific meeting in
San Francisco.
One U.S. health official said the findings
add to the growing understanding that
while interactions with pets and therapy
animals can be beneficial, they can also
carry risk.
“Whether covered in fur, feathers or
scales, animals have the potential to carry
germs that make people sick,” said Casey
Barton Behravesh of the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention.
Pet therapy can help people recover from
a range of health problems. Past studies
have shown dogs or other animals can ease
anxiety and sadness, lower blood pressure
and even reduce the amount of medications
some patients need.
But there have been episodes of the
superbug MRSA riding around on healthy-
looking therapy dogs.
MRSA, or methicillin-resistant
Staphylococcus aureus bacteria, often live
on the skin without causing symptoms.
But they can become more dangerous if
they enter the bloodstream, destroying
heart valves or causing other damage.
Health officials have tied MRSA to as many
as 11,000 U.S. deaths a year.

The ultra-low jobless rate — the best in
nearly 49 years — reflects a healthy econo-
my driven by strong consumer and business
spending. In fact, hiring is so strong that
employers are having trouble filling open-
ings and some are being forced to offer
higher pay.
Despite the similar unemployment rates,
today’s economy is vastly different from
that of 1969. Back then, one-third of
Americans worked in manufacturing; now it
is barely 9 percent. Strong economic
growth back then was propelled by huge
government spending on the Vietnam War
and newly created Great Society social pro-
grams. And women were much less likely to
work.
figures, the government revised sharply
upward its estimate of hiring for July and
August. So far this year, monthly job
growth has averaged 208,000, compared
with 182,000 last year.
“The acceleration in job gains this year is
extraordinary in an environment where
firms are having great difficulty finding
qualified candidates,” said Stephen Stanley,
chief economist at Amherst Pierpont
Securities.
Most analysts blamed the slower pace of
hiring last month on Florence, which struck
North and South Carolina and closed thou-
sands of businesses.
The category that includes restaurants,
hotels and casinos lost jobs for the first
time since September 2017, when Hurricane
Harvey hit the Houston area, and retailers
last month shed 20,000 jobs. Many of
those jobs are likely to bounce back in the
coming months.
Pay gains remain modest but are showing
September rose 2.8 percent from a year ear-
lier.
With unemployment so low, companies
are facing intense pressure to raise pay to
land workers. Amazon this week raised its
minimum wage to $15 an hour.
Paul Millman, chief executive of Chroma
Technology, has struggled to find enough
machine operators and engineers for his
135-person company, based in Bellows
Falls, Vermont. It makes filters for handheld
medical equipment, food safety test sys-
tems, and virtual reality headsets.
The company is doubling the size of one
of its plants and increasingly automating
its assembly process because it is so hard-
pressed to find employees. It has also start-
ed calling back people who previously

resulted in two new hires.

might have on the economy and the stock
market.
Friday’s jobs report will probably keep
the Federal Reserve on track to raise short-
term interest rates, economists said, with
another increase expected in December.
The economy does show some weak
spots. Sales of existing homes have fallen
over the past year, held back in part by
higher mortgage rates. Auto sales have also
slumped.

on foreign markets than other industries,
added 18,000 jobs last month, a sign that
President Donald Trump’s trade fight with
China and other countries is having little
effect on hiring.
Still, should the tariffs remain fully in
effect a year from now, roughly 300,000
jobs could be lost by then, according to
Mark Zandi, chief economist at Moody’s
Analytics.

Marin Theatre stages Tony-winning ‘Oslo’

By Judy Richter
DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT
Hopes for Middle East peace
brightened considerably in 1993
when the Oslo Accords between
Israel and the Palestine Liberation
Organization were signed.
“Oslo,” the 2017 Tony-winning
drama by J.T. Rogers, tells how
this historic agreement came
about. It’s being given its West
Coast premiere by Marin Theatre
Company.
It focuses on the top-secret
negotiations brokered by Terje
Rød-Larsen (Mark Anderson
Phillips), founder of a research
organization that studies interna-
tional politics; and his wife,
Mona Juul (Erica Sullivan), a
Norwegian diplomat.
They brought together two rep-
resentatives each from Israel and
the PLO in a Norwegian country
mansion and sent them into a pri-
vate room to talk.
Although the two sides were
openly hostile at first, they gradu-
ally established some rapport and
began agreeing on points of con-
tention.
As these talks continued in fits
and starts over several months,
others from each side became
involved.
MTC artistic director Jasson
Minadakis skillfully guides his
superb 14-member cast through
the play’s changing moods, char-
acter clashes and character devel-
opment.
Among the actors, Phillips and
Sullivan are especially notewor-
thy as the persistent brokers.
Most of the other actors play only
one character, while Marcia Pizzo,
Charles Shaw Robinson and Ryan
Tasker display their versatility in
several roles.
The cast also includes Ashkon
Davaran, Aaron Davidman, Joe
Estlack, Corey Fischer, Brian
Herndon, Peter James Meyers, J.
Paul Nicholas, Adam Niemann and
Paris Hunter Paul.
Although the Oslo Accords
raised hopes for an end to hostili-
ties, the play’s epilogue makes
clear that peace quickly became
elusive and still is today, 25 years
later.
Running about two hours and 40
minutes with an intermission,
“Oslo” is a powerful, riveting
drama. It will continue through
Oct. 21 at Marin Theatre
Company, 397 Miller Ave., Mill
Valley. KEVIN BERNE

Blood flows freely in ‘The Lieutenant of Inishmore’

By Judy Richter
DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT
Never was so much blood spilled
on account of one cat until “The
Lieutenant of Inishmore,” penned
by Irish playwright Martin
McDonagh and presented by San
Jose Stage Company.
Set on the Irish island of
Inishmore in 1993, this absurdist
PHOTO COURTESY drama begins when young Davey
OF SAN JOSE STAGE COMPANY (Trevor March) finds a dead black
‘The Lieutenant of Inishmore’ is not cat in the road and takes it to
for the squeamish. Donny (Randall King).
The cat, named Wee Thomas, is
the only friend of Donny’s son,
Mad Padraic (Rob August), who
has been kicked out of the IRA
because he’s too violent.
Donny calls his son and says
the cat is doing poorly, so Padraic
heads for home. In the meantime,
Davey finds a light-colored cat and
covers it with black shoe polish
in hopes of passing it off as Wee
Thomas.
Padraic discovers the deception
and plans to kill both Davey and
Donny, but he’s interrupted when
three men involved with an IRA
splinter group arrive with plans to
kill him.
They’re foiled by Davey’s 16-
year-old sister, Mairead (Carley
Herlihy), who wants to join up
with Padraic.
There are few survivors by the
end, which follows some ironic
twists and one of the most grue-
some scenes ever staged.
As directed by Joshua Marx, the
eight-member cast does well,
especially the principals.
Tunuviel Luv deserves credit for
the props and blood designs.
The play is billed as “satirical
comedy (that) jabs at the absurdity
of terrorist mentality,” according
to press materials. While that may
be, it’s not for the squeamish.
Running about 95 minutes with-
out intermission, “The Lieutenant
of Inishmore” will continue
through Oct. 21 at San Jose Stage
Company, 490 S. First St., San
Jose.

Conservatory Theater begins its 2018-19
season with Lynn Nottage’s 2017 Pulitzer
Prize-winning play “Sweat.” In Reading,
Pennsylvania — the blue-collar heart of
America’s steel industry — a tight-knit
group of factory workers has gathered in the
local bar for generations to share laughs,
hopes and cold beers. But in 2000, reces-
sion looms, and a lock-out turns an assem-
bly line into a picket line, forcing workers
to decide where to take a stand. “Sweat”
addresses conflicted American dreams in a
system where economic “creative destruc-
tion” can send both blue collar and tech
jobs overseas. Directed by Loretta Greco.
Two hours and 40 minutes, including one
intermission. Please note: This production
includes moments of violence, smoking
and strong language. Through Oct. 21 at
A.C.T.’s Geary Theater 415 Geary Street,
San Francisco. Tickets at A.C.T. box office

LOVE, LUST AND MURDER: GIA-
COMO PUCCINI’S “TOSCA” BRINGS
CORY WEAVER/SAN FRANCISCO OPERA
HIGH EMOTIONS TO SAN FRANCIS-
CO OPERA. All of Rome trembled before
him. Except her. Corruption permeates
every corner of Rome under Scarpia, the
chief of police. When the fiery diva Tosca
finds herself the target of his lust, she takes
a stand in the name of all she holds sacred —
art, freedom and a boundless commitment to
love. “Tosca,” one of opera’s most popular
and frequently performed works, follows the
patriotic artist Mario Cavaradossi and his
beloved Floria Tosca as they attempt to
evade the corrupt authorities in Napoleonic-
era Rome. The opera’s themes of love, lust
and murder inspired Puccini to compose
some of his most memorable and dramatic
music. Approximately two hours 46 min-
utes including two intermissions.

big-scale cinematic delight that will have
the masses singing, swooning and sobbing
along with it.
It’s quite a feat from Bradley Cooper, who
directed, co-wrote, produced and stars in the
film. Cooper plays Jackson Maine, a mas-
sively popular singer-songwriter whose
path intersects with an unknown and over-
looked talent named Ally (a magnificent
Lady Gaga) and the two become entangled as
his star fades and hers rises.
When the film starts, Jackson is at the
height of his fame, the type of fame where
grocery store cashiers take photos of you
without asking, where you can send a pri-
vate jet to usher a girl you just met to your
concert and where you can be an alcoholic
teetering on the edge because you’re talent-

eyed about it. “I knew that was plutonium.”
The next day, Cooper went to Gaga’s
home in Malibu to confirm that what he had
seen the night before was real. He arrived
hungry. Gaga — whose friends call her by
her real name, Stefani — fed him some left-
over spaghetti, and the two East Coast,
Italian American-raised performers (Cooper
is from Philadelphia, Gaga New York) felt
an immediate, natural connection.
“Instantly,” says Gaga. “When I saw his
eyes, when I opened the door.”
Within minutes, they were singing by
Gaga’s piano and “A Star Is Born” was, well,
born.
“And when I heard him sing! My God! I
stopped playing the piano and I was like,
‘Bradley you can sing!’” said Gaga, sitting
next to her co-star and director. “And he was

ed and charismatic and you make too many
people too much money and, besides,
you’re basically functioning aside from the
tinnitus.
Cooper puts the viewer right with
Jackson as he takes the stage at a big festi-
val. His routine, you imagine, doesn’t alter
that much: Pop the pills. Drink the drink.
Take the hat off. Play. Sing. Exit stage left
to drink some more. Only this night, he
ends up somewhere a little off his regular
path, at a drag bar where Ally, in full Edith
Piaf costume, wakes him out of his ambling
stupor with “La Vie En Rose.” And with a
star-making close-up of Ally, Jackson, and
the audience, falls in love.
Cooper and Gaga have incredible chem-
istry, the kind that makes you believe that
two strangers would know in a night that
they’re made for each other. Before you
know it, he’s asking her to come up on
stage with him to sing her song, “Shallow,”
which someone films, puts on YouTube and
creates a viral sensation.
like, ‘Really?’ And then he said, ‘Let’s film
it.’ He started filming it on his phone.”
Cooper shakes his head. “It was nuts.”
It can be hard to separate the already
mythologized transformations — Cooper
directs! Gaga acts! — that fueled “A Star Is
Born” from the fictional fable of fame,
itself. In both the movie’s creation and in
the finished product are lessons of bold
chances and artistic integrity, of personal
frailty and popular success. “A Star Is Born”
is a movie mirrored by its making.
“A Star Is Born” is the fourth version of
the story (or fifth, depending on how you
count). First was George Cukor’s “What
Price Hollywood?” in 1932, followed by
William Wellman’s 1937 remake. Later
came one with Judy Garland and James
Mason in 1954 and one in 1973 with Barbra
Streisand and Kris Kristofferson.
A new “A Star Is Born” has been in devel-
opment for about two decades at Warner
Bros. , with various incarnations once
planned around Will Smith and Whitney
Houston, or Beyonce and Leonardo
The first hour of “A Star Is Born” is down-
right electrifying — funny, exciting, sexy
and wholly lived-in. Characters you just met
feel like old friends, from the drag queens at
the club to Ally’s father (Andrew Dice Clay)
and his fellow drivers. Sam Elliott, as
Jackson’s brother, might only have 15 min-
utes of screen time, but it’s enough to break
your heart (and probably earn him some
awards love too). “A Star Is Born” is that
rare film that makes you actually feel part of
a world, and not just like an observer on the
other side of a screen.
But like all good things, the engine of
that first hour only gets the film so far, and
the second half has its shortcomings.
Cooper rushes through an enormous amount
of story to wrap things up in a reasonable
runtime. While he does accomplish this, it
comes at the expense of Ally as a character
who goes from earthy singer-songwriter to
a Katy Perry-like pop diva in an instant
without much inquiry.
This film wears its thesis on its sleeve and
DiCaprio with Clint Eastwood directing.
Cooper, who starred in Eastwood’s
“American Sniper,” first discussed acting in
the film for Eastwood before deciding to
direct, too. For encouragement, Eastwood
visited the set on the first day of shooting.
“I remember he said he liked my boots,”
says Gaga. “I turned bright red.”
Cooper, though, put his own imprint on
“A Star Is Born,” retailoring the story and
— he hopes — launching himself as a writer
and director. With meticulous preparation,
Cooper — ever the student — threw himself
into the new role. Often, he could be found
under a table in a scene with a monitor so as
to be as close as possible to the actors. “He
was tireless,” says Sam Elliott, who plays
Cooper’s brother in the film. “He never quit
on it, from beginning to end. It probably
drove the studio nuts at some point that he
wouldn’t quit on it.”
“Being 39 when I started this journey, I
just realize: Time is the biggest currency. If
I don’t do what I keep feeling inside, con-
stantly seeing shots in my head,” Cooper
THE DAILY JOURNAL
is trying to make a point about being an
artist with “something to say” and making
use of the time when people are listening.
Jackson values authenticity above all else,
but we never get to learn what Ally wants
out of her career — all we know is that
Jackson, and presumably Cooper, disap-
prove of the artifice.
But the actors and the filmmaking hold up
“A Star Is Born” where the story cannot.
Gaga is a gifted actress, natural, vulnerable
and strong as she goes toe-to-toe with
Cooper in what might be his best perform-
ance — the man truly disappears into
Jackson Maine. And as a director, well, he
is the real deal and, with this sort of intro-
duction, definitely far from the shallow
now.
“A Star Is Born,” a Warner Bros. release,
is rated R by the Motion Picture Association
of America for “language throughout, some
sexuality/nudity and substance abuse. ”
Running time: 135 minutes. Three and a
half stars out of four.
says, trailing off. “I always knew that at
some point I had to stop critiquing other
movies and just make one.”
Cooper stars as Jackson Maine, a hard-
drinking, country-rock ‘n’ roll star in the
vein of Gregg Allman. (Maine’s band is
played by Lukas Nelson & Promise of the
Real, Neil Young’s regular backing band.)
When Jackson ducks into a drag bar for a
drink, he’s blown away by Ally (Gaga),
who’s there singing — what else — “La Vie
en Rose.”
A naturally talented singer who has essen-
tially given up on her music dreams, Ally
has always been told her look (and her nose)
isn’t quite right. She and Jackson quickly
fall in love, even as Jackson’s drinking
problem worsens, but not before they can
together forge something honest and beau-
tiful through music, catapulting Ally to
stardom.
“When I’m watching it back, I see myself
as a much younger girl, more like when I
was 15 writing songs at the piano,” says
Gaga.

en bridges on the same side through

forced with cement, Fink said the

Time of Completion will be twenty (20) days after issuance of the Notice to Proceed. Liquidated
damages for failure to complete the work within the specified time are specified in the Contract
Documents.

The State of California has adopted a schedule of the general prevailing rates of per diem wages

ments, a copy of which may be obtained from the Department of Industrial Relations, Division of
Apprenticeship Standards, or can be download at their website at www.dir.ca.gov.

No bidder may withdraw his/her bid for a period of ninety (90) days after the date set for the
opening thereof. All bids shall remain valid for that period of time.

tract. Such substitution of securities in lieu of retention shall be at the contractor’s request and at

THE DAILY JOURNAL NATION Weekend • Oct 6-7, 2018 31

Those passions were on full display this of Collins and pivoted his seat around to Kavanaugh is nothing short of monstrous,”

BRETT
Continued from page 1
the conservative jurist to the nation’s high-
est court on Saturday.
The announcements by Republican Susan
Collins of Maine and Democrat Joe
Manchin of West Virginia ended most of the
suspense over a political battle that has
transfixed the nation — though die-hard
Democrats insisted on arguing through the
night to a mostly empty Senate chamber.
Some of them continued raising concerns
that Kavanaugh would push the court further
to the right, including with possible sym-
pathetic rulings for President Donald
Trump, the man who nominated him. But
the case against Kavanaugh had long since
been taken over by allegations that he sex-
ually abused women decades ago — accusa-
tions he emphatically denied.
In the pivotal moment Friday, Collins,
perhaps the chamber’s most moderate
Republican, proclaimed her support for
Kavanaugh at the end of a Senate floor
speech that lasted nearly 45 minutes. While
she was among a handful of Republicans
who helped sink Trump’s quest to obliterate
President Barack Obama’s health care law
last year, this time she proved instrumental
in delivering a triumph to Trump.
Collins told fellow senators that
Christine Blasey Ford’s dramatic testimony
last week describing Kavanaugh’s alleged
1982 assault was “sincere, painful and com-
pelling.” But she said the FBI had found no
corroborating evidence from witnesses
whose names Ford had provided.
“We will be ill-served in the long run if we
abandon the presumption of innocence and
fairness, tempting though it may be,” she
said. “We must always remember that it is
when passions are most inflamed that fair-
ness is most in jeopardy.”
week in a fight that could energize both par-
ties’ voters in elections for control of
Congress just five weeks away. The show-
down drew raucous demonstrators — largely
anti-Kavanaugh — to the Capitol, where
they raised tensions by repeatedly con-
fronting lawmakers despite an intensified
police presence. Another 101 protesters
were arrested Friday, the U.S. Capitol Police
said.
It’s all expected to conclude Saturday
afternoon with a final roll call almost solid-
ly along party lines. That would mark an
anti-climactic finale to a clash fought
against the backdrop of the (hash)MeToo
movement and Trump’s unyielding support
of the nominee, opposing forces that left
Kavanaugh’s fate in doubt for weeks.
Manchin, the only remaining undeclared
lawmaker, used an emailed statement to
announce his support for Kavanaugh
moments after Collins finished talking,
making him the only Democrat supporting
the nominee. Manchin faces a competitive
re-election race next month in a state Trump
carried in 2016 by 42 percentage points.
“My heart goes out to anyone who has
experienced any type of sexual assault in
their life,” Manchin said. But he added that
based on the FBI report, “I have found Judge
Kavanaugh to be a qualified jurist who will
follow the Constitution and determine cases
based on the legal findings before him.”
Protesters chanted “Shame” at Manchin
later when he talked to reporters outside his
office.
Republicans control the Senate by a mea-
ger 51-49 margin. Support from Collins and
Manchin would give Kavanaugh at least 51
votes.
Three female GOP senators — Jodi Ernst
of Iowa, Shelley Moore Capito of West
Virginia and Cindy Hyde-Smith of
Mississippi, sat directly behind Collins as
she spoke. Majority Leader Mitch
McConnell of Kentucky sat directly in front
face her. A few Democrats sat stone-faced
nearby.
When she finished, Collins received
applause from the roughly two dozen GOP
senators present.
Republican Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, a
fellow moderate and friend of Collins,
became the only Republican to say she
opposed Kavanaugh. She said on the Senate
floor Friday evening that Kavanaugh is “a
good man” but his “appearance of impropri-
ety has become unavoidable.”
She added that with Supreme Court
appointments lasting a lifetime, “Those
who seek these seats must meet the highest
standards in all respects, at all times. And
that is hard.”
In a twist, Murkowski said she will state
her opposition but vote “present” as a cour-
tesy to Kavanaugh supporter Sen. Steve
Daines, R-Mont., who is attending his
daughter’s wedding in Montana. Murkowski
said she’d use an obscure procedure that lets
one senator offset the absence of another
without affecting the outcome. That would
let Kavanaugh win by the same two-vote
margin he’d have received had both senators
voted.
Sen. Jeff Flake, R-Ariz., who has repeat-
edly battled Trump and will retire in January,
said he’d vote for Kavanaugh’s confirma-
tion “unless something big changes.”
Vice President Mike Pence planned to be
available Saturday in case his tie-breaking
vote was needed, which now seems unlike-
ly.
In a procedural vote that handed
Republicans an initial victory, senators
voted 51-49 Friday to limit debate and keep
the nomination alive, defeating Democratic
efforts to scuttle it with endless delays.
The debate sparked smoldering resent-
ment by partisans on both sides, on and off
the Senate floor.
“What left wing groups and their
Democratic allies have done to Judge
Republican Judiciary Committee Chairman
Chuck Grassley of Iowa declared before the
vote. He accused Democrats of emboldening
protesters: “They have encouraged mob
rule.”
On the other side, Senate Democratic
leader Chuck Schumer of New York called
the fight “a sorry epilogue to the brazen
theft of Justice Scalia’s seat.” That reflected
Democrats’ lasting umbrage over
Republicans’ 2016 refusal to even consider
Merrick Garland, President Obama’s nomi-
nee to replace the late Antonin Scalia.
When Trump nominated Kavanaugh in
July, Democrats leapt to oppose him, say-
ing that past statements and opinions
showed he’d be a threat to the Roe v. Wade
case that assured the right to abortion. They
said he also seemed ready to rule for Trump if
federal authorities probing his 2016 cam-
paign’s alleged connections to Russia try to
pursue him in court.
Yet Kavanaugh’s pathway to confirmation
seemed unfettered until Ford accused him of
drunkenly sexually assaulting her in a
locked bedroom at a 1982 high school gath-
ering. Two other women later emerged with
sexual misconduct allegations from the
1980s.
Kavanaugh foes cast him as a product of a
hard-drinking, male-dominated, private
school culture in Washington’s upscale
Maryland suburb of Bethesda. He and his
defenders asserted that his high school and
college focus was on academics, sports and
church.
Democrats also challenged Kavanaugh’s
honesty, temperament and ability to be
nonpartisan after he fumed at last week’s
Judiciary hearing that Democrats had
launched a “search and destroy mission”
against him fueled by their hatred of Trump.
Kavanaugh would replace the retired
Justice Anthony Kennedy, who was a swing
vote on issues including abortion, cam-
paign finance and same-sex marriage.

Melania Trump loses footing with elephant, but not kids
Melania Trump holds a child at The Nest Children’s Home in Nairobi, Kenya.
NATION/WORLD
By Darlene Superville
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NAIROBI, Kenya — Melania Trump
briefly lost her footing when a baby ele-
phant startled her with a sudden move, but
the first lady was anything but out of step
when children at an orphanage welcomed
her to their home with African song and
dance.
It didn’t take long for the typically
reserved U.S. first lady to dive fully into the
moment.
Mrs. Trump arrived at The Nest orphanage
on Friday after helping feed baby ele-
phants, still clad in the riding pants and tall
brown boots she had worn on a safari. A
group of children who live at the orphanage
and had been waiting for their American vis-
itor broke into song and dance.
With a child’s hand clasped in each of
REUTERS hers, Mrs. Trump led the group up a walk-
way toward the home for orphaned infants,

Weekend • Oct 6-7, 2018
sashaying to the music as she approached a
bank of waiting news cameras.
The first lady was similarly immersed in
the moment earlier at Nairobi National
Park, where she had gone early Friday to
highlight elephant conservation.
Mrs. Trump seemed reticent at first but
she eventually stepped down from the plat-
form she was standing on to take a large
milk bottle with a big red nipple and feed
some of the orphaned elephants being
raised at the park a few miles outside of
downtown Nairobi.
Soon she was petting and stroking the
elephants, smiling and laughing and hav-
ing a good time.
Her focus on saving elephants seemed at
odds with policies put forth by her husband,
President Donald Trump.
The Trump administration recently decid-
ed to again allow Americans to import the
body parts of African elephants shot for
sport.
