Downtown office space dominates rental market


By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Commercial real estate remains tight and expensive

As the local economy keeps


booming, growing companies
continue snapping up lucrative
downtown office space across San
Mateo County, contributing to the
dearth of available commercial
square footage available throughout the Peninsula, according to
real estate experts.
Vacancy rates remain historical-

ly low, while prices creep higher,


further solidifying what has been
an extremely tight and expensive
market for businesses looking to
rent office space in San Mateo
County, according to a recent
report
from
Colliers
International.
The average price for a square
foot of office space in San Mateo
County is $4.40, up 4 percent

from last quarter, and roughly 20


percent last year, while overall
vacancy rate has decreased to
roughly 7 percent, which is the
most densely populated the region
has been in more than a decade,
according to the report.
Dan Matteucci, managing director with Newmark, Cornish &
Carey in San Mateo, said the current market is the hottest, most

lucrative environment he has witnessed in the seven years he has


been in the local commercial real
estate market.
It is very much a landlord-driven game, he said.
A trademark of the current market, said Matteucci, is the demand
by companies to occupy trendy,
expensive locations in downtowns throughout the county.

Many workers at the successful


technology companies driving
the local economy desire to work
in cities near the Caltrain line, and
enjoy the amenities of an urban
environment surrounding their
office, said Matteucci.
Much of technology industry is
anchored locally from the northern tip beginning in the south of
Market Street region in San

Residents of San Mateo apartment complexes affected by their


neighbors secondhand smoke
could soon see some reprieve as
the City Council considers enacting new regulations.
The council will meet Monday,
July 20, to discuss an ordinance to
ban smoking in all multifamily
dwellings and city parks, prohibit

marijuana smoking on any public


property and add electronic cigarettes and marijuana to the citys
definition of smoking.
Officials are considering joining the ranks of other cities
known for more stringent smoking bans, such as Belmont and
Foster City, as a response to concerns from residents with neighbors who smoke.

Business improvement district City making strides to reduce emissions


Foster City officials finalizing Climate Action Plan

In an attempt to revitalize the


economic viability of downtown
Millbrae, entrepreneurs, residents
and officials are rallying support
for the creation of business
improvement district.
Councilman Wayne Lee said he
is working with business and
property owners in the region
bounded by El Camino Real,
Broadway, Taylor Boulevard and
Victoria Avenue, to gauge interest

in getting the effort off the


ground.
As officials bandy a variety of
opportunities
which
could
improve the citys future economic
outlook, Lee said he hoped businesses and land owners would be
interested in collaborating on an
effort to capitalize.
Id like the merchants to work
together to plan a vibrant downtown, he said. So they can
access resources in a coherent

Solar panels and waste diversion


as well as city and residential energy audits are part of a large swath
of programs being explored by
Foster City officials to help meet
state mandates to reduce the citys
carbon footprint.
The Bayfront community is
finalizing its Climate Action Plan
to reduce greenhouse gas emissions; however, some argue a more
regional effort to address traffic is
whats truly needed to make an
impact.

The city is seeking public comment on a draft environmental


impact report covering the new
plan that highlights a range of
measures to reduce 2005 greenhouse gas levels by 15 percent by
2020.
The nearly 200-page plan proposes a range of options from
reducing energy as well as water
consumption,
transportation
measures, diverting waste from
landfills and educating the public.
I think it raises awareness for
the citizens and provides some

additional tools and incentives for


them to reduce greenhouse gas
emissions. And it helps the city
choose approaches that are going
to be the most efficient, said
Leslie Carmichael, a consulting
planner with the city.
Eventually, the state seeks to
reduce greenhouse gas emissions
80 percent by 2050 but, in the
interim, Foster City must reduce
16, 625 metric tons of carbon
dioxide, according to the plan.

about their families, their education

He seemed casual about his affairs,

County to study rotating homeless shelter


DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT

With a disproportionate number of the


countys homeless population living on the
coastside, San Mateo County officials are
looking to study whether a rotating church
shelter could meet their needs.
Since there are no shelter beds on the
coast, San Mateo County Supervisor Don
Horsley has requested $40,000 in Measure A
half-cent sales tax money to fund a feasability study by Home and Hope, which partners
with 34 churches in the county to provide
nightly shelter and meals for homeless individuals.
A one-day homeless count earlier this year
found that 169 of the 775 unsheltered homeless individuals in the county reside on the
coast, according to a staff report by Deputy

County Manager Reyna Farrales.


While Home and Hope was formed in
2009, it is based on the Interfaith
Hospitality Network model of congregations offering their facilities as shelter for
homeless people that started locally in
2001 at Transfiguration Episcopal Church
in San Mateo.
The $40,000 agreement with Home and
Hope will be a one-time expenditure not to
exceed $100,000 at the discretion of the
Human Services Agency director.
Home and Hope currently works with 34
congregations throughout San Mateo
County to provide nightly shelter, meals,
day center and social support to 15 to 25
individuals through the year.
A designated church provides shelter and
meals for one week at a time. The feasabili-

ty study will determine if this model can be


developed on the coast.
Key questions to be assessed include:
Will a core group of congregations commit to covering the shelter rotation for the
specified duration of service?
Will year-round or inclement weather
(October to May) shelter be the most appropriate for initial program build out? and
Can sufficient funds be identified for the
project to be sustained in the long term?
The feasibility study will be completed
within six months from the start of the
agreement, or mutually agreed upon date
between the county and Home and Hope,
according to the staff report by Farrales.
The San Mateo County Board of
Supervisors meets 9 a.m., Tuesday, July 21,
400 County Center, Redwood City.

Employee shuttle may get plug pulled


By Samantha Weigel
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Despite receiving a grant to kick off a new


mid-day shuttle service in a growing business district, the Foster City Council is
poised to postpone a plan aimed at keeping
employees out of their cars.
The city was awarded a grant by the San
Mateo County Transportation Authority
last year to implement a shuttle that would
provide afternoon service to local employees by taking them from the office to various shopping centers.
Several large companies such as Visa and
Gilead Sciences call the Bayfront city home

and as numerous employees are incentivized


to use public transit for their morning and
evening commutes, many dont have a way
to get around during their lunch break, said
Joanne Bohigian, president of the Foster
City Chamber of Commerce.
The Foster City Chamber of Commerce
worked with the city on the project and
played a significant role in coordinating
with local businesses and suggesting transit
routes.
However, disagreements over a viable
transit route and how to make the program
financially sustainable led city and chamber
staff to recommend the project be suspended.

While the year-long grant would have


funded 75 percent or about $143,000 for the
annual service, the city was left picking up
the remainder of the tab and the council
never agreed to continue the service once
the TA funds ran out.
Its not good policy to start an initiative
that youre not willing to commit to funding, Councilman Herb Perez said. I think
the council and the chamber have made a
good decision in not deciding to go forward
with it because the return on investment is
not really there. Its not going to accomplish the goal they thought it was going to

Door-to-door solicitors
required to carry permit
A recent increase in the number
of door-to-door solicitors operating in San Carlos has prompted
authorities to remind the public to
ask for a physical copy of their
solicitors permit, according to
the San Mateo County Sheriffs
Office.
Individuals and businesses that
wish to sell door to door are

required to obtain a solicitors permit from the city before contacting residents, and they have to
carry a physical copy of that permit with them while engaging in
door-to-door sales, according to
sheriffs deputies.
Solicitors routinely tell residents that their company does
have a permit but hasn't given
them a physical copy, according
to deputies.
Religious groups going door to
door are protected by the First
Amendment, however, and are not
subject to the same requirements,
according to deputies.
Deputies advise members of the
public to report unpermitted doorto-door solicitors by calling (650)

Health enrollment surpasses projections


By Judy Lin
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SACRAMENTO California
has enrolled 2.3 million people
under an optional expansion of
the states Medicaid program
nearly three times more than the
state had anticipated, according to
the state Department of Finance.
Beyond that, a record number of
people who already qualified for
the low-income health program
signed up, pushing overall enrollment in the states Medicaid program known as Medi-Cal past 12
million to roughly 1 in 3
Californians.
Medi-Cals rapid growth is now
putting financial pressure on a
state that was quick to embrace
President Barack Obamas health
care initiative. Five years ago, the
program accounted for 14 percent
of Californias general fund.
Today, Medi-Cal consumes 16 percent.
In that time, the overall cost of
the program has jumped to $115.4
billion from $91. 5 billion,
although much of the extra funding is supplied by the federal gov-

ernment.

officials say
the decision to
expand
has
injected billions of federal
dollars into the

say the state is

costs through long-term budgeting and better coordination with
other social programs.
California has been at the
national forefront of implementing the Affordable Care Act and
will continue to be, said Gov.
Jerry Browns finance spokesman,
H.D. Palmer.
Still, Republicans worry that
Democrats who control the
Capitol will look to raise taxes to
make up the funding.

health plan tax that no longer
complies with federal rules.
The governor wants lawmakers
to expand the so-called managed
care organization tax currently
levied on health plans that accept
Medi-Cal patients and include
most plans regulated by the
Department of Managed Health
Care. Doing so, the administration says, would allow California
to meet new federal requirements
for a broad-based tax and draw
matching funds. The proposal was
put into a bill by Assemblyman
Marc Levine, D-San Rafael, his
office announced Thursday.
Republicans, however, are criticizing Democrats for trying to tax
health plans that are already unaffordable for many Californians.
They say the majority party squandered the states budget surplus to
give salary increases to union
friends rather than investing in
health care. On Thursday, they
announced a measure to dedicate
any unanticipated tax revenues
toward boosting Medi-Cal and
developmentally disability services.

Medicaid enrollment
surges, stirs worry
about state budgets
By Christina Cassiday
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ATLANTA More than a


dozen states that opted to expand
Medicaid under the Affordable
Care Act have seen enrollments
surge way beyond projections,
raising concerns that the added
costs will strain their budgets
when federal aid is scaled back
starting in two years.
Some lawmakers warn the
price of expanding the health
care program for poor and lowerincome Americans could mean
less money available for other
state services, including education.
In Kentucky, for example,
enrollments during the 2014 fiscal year were more than double
the number projected, with

almost 311,000 newly eligible


residents signing up.
Thats greater than what was
initially predicted through
2021. As a result, the state
revised its Medicaid cost estimate from $33 million to $74
million for the 2017 fiscal year.
By 2021, those costs could
climb to a projected $363 million.
That is a monstrous hole that
we have got to figure out how to
plug, and we dont know how to
do it, said Kentucky state Sen.
Chris McDaniel, a Republican
who leads the Senate budget
committee and opposed expansion.
The two biggest things that
keep me up at night are state
pensions and the cost of expanded Medicaid.

70 years after WWII, Japanese


company apologizes to US vets
By Andrew Dalton
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LOS ANGELES A major


Japanese corporation gave an
unprecedented apology Sunday to
a 94-year-old U.S. prisoner of war
for using American POWs for
forced labor during World War II,
nearly 70 years after the war ended.
At the solemn ceremony hosted
by the Museum of Tolerance at the
Simon Wiesenthal Center in Los
Angeles, James Murphy, of Santa
Maria, accepted the apology from
executives
of
Mitsubishi
Materials in front of a projected
image of the U.S. and Japanese
flags.
Murphy, who was forced to work

in Mitsubishi copper mines under


harsh conditions, called the apology sincere and remorseful.
This is a glorious day, Murphy
said. For 70 years we wanted
this.
Rabbi Abraham Cooper, an
associate dean at the center whose
primary focus in the past has been
Holocaust education, said he
believes the move is unprecedented.
As far as I know, this is a
piece of history, Cooper told
the Associated Press recently.

made such a gesture. We hope
this will spur other companies
to join in and do the same.

Japans government issued a formal apology to American POWs in


2009 and again in 2010. But the
dwindling ranks of POWs used as
slaves at mines and industrial
plants have so far had little luck in
getting apologies from the corporations who used them, sometimes
under brutal conditions.

Family: Shooter was depressed


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. The


family of the gunman who killed
four Marines and a sailor in
Chattanooga says he had suffered
from depression for many years
and was not the son we knew and
loved.
It grieves us beyond belief to
know that his pain found its
expression in this heinous act of
violence,
the
family
of
Muhammad Youssef Abdulazeez
said in a statement issued Saturday
through a lawyer.
Law enforcement officials did
not return calls seeking comment
on the familys assertion that

Abdulazeez was
suffering from
depression.

Abdulazeez and delve into
his monthslong visit to Jordan last year,
looking for clues to who or what
might have influenced him and set
off the bloodshed Thursday.
The 24-year-old Kuwait-born
Abdulazeez opened fire at a mili-

tary recruiting office and a NavyMarine operations center a few


miles apart.
Family members said they are
cooperating with the investigation.
We understand there are many
legitimate questions that need to
be answered, they said. Having
said this, now is the time to reflect
on the victims and their families,
and we feel it would be inappropriate to say anything more other
than that we are truly sorry for
their loss.
A law enforcement official who
was not authorized to discuss the
investigation and spoke on condition of anonymity said FBI agents

were continuing to interview people Sunday and reaching out to a


broader circle of potential contacts and acquaintances.
The official said that investigators were especially interested in
Abdulazeezs trip to Jordan and
were trying to determine whom he
met with, what he did and whether
he might have gone or tried to go
anywhere else.
The president of the Islamic
Society of Greater Chattanooga
said Abdulazeezs father told him
he felt blindsided by the attack.
He told me that he had never
seen it coming, and did not see
any signs from his son that he
would be that way and do some-

thing like that, Bassam Issa said.


Meanwhile, governors in at
least a half-dozen states ordered
National Guardsmen to be armed,
and Florida Gov. Rick Scott
moved his states Guard recruiters
from storefronts in urban areas to
armories. In Tennessee, where the
shooting occurred, Gov. Bill
Haslam has called for a review of
security policies and procedures at
National Guard armories and other
military installations in the state.
We dont want to leave our
folks out there as targets when
weve had such a horrible event
happen just three days ago,
Haslam told NBCs Meet the

Black horse-trainers
death raises tensions

STONEWALL, Miss. Its a


tiny little memorial in the yard of
an aging mobile home in a downon-its-luck Mississippi mill
town. Poster boards with votive
candles form hearts, there are silk
flowers and red, white and blue balloons. Theres a sign demanding
Justice 4 Jonathan.
Here on Artesia Avenue is where
Jonathan Sanders died after 10
p.m. on July 8, following a physical encounter with a white police
officer for the town of Stonewall.
What happened that night when
Sanders a 39-year-old black
man riding in a two-wheel buggy
pulled by a horse crossed paths
with Kevin Herrington a 25year-old part-time officer is
intensely disputed.
Lawyers for the Sanders family
and witnesses who live in the
mobile home say Herrington
engaged in an unprovoked attack
on Sanders after the two saw each
other at a convenience store about
a mile across town. C.J. Lawrence,

CENTENNIAL, Colo. Each


morning for nearly three months,
Sandy Phillips would wake at
dawn, drive seven minutes to the
courthouse, down a cup of coffee
and wait an hour to listen to testimony about why her daughter was
shot to death in a Colorado movie
theater.
It was a painful, yet oddly comforting routine. Now that her
daughters killer has been convicted and his long trial is coming to a
close, she wonders how she will
cope without the proceedings that
gave structure and meaning to each
day.
The trial was a job that we did,
said Phillips, who sat in the courtroom for nearly nine hours every
day during the 11-week trial,
wrapped in her daughter Jessica
Ghawis emerald green scarf, with
her husband, Lonnie, by her side.
The hardest part for us is what do
we do next? And what does that
look like? We dont know yet.
Everyone who has been involved
in this, were going to have to
redefine ourselves emotionally.

Three years
after
James
Holmes opened
fire on a crowded
midnight
premiere of a
Batman movie,
relatives and
survivors face
unsettled
James Holmes an
future. A jury
last week convicted the gunman of
killing 12 people and wounding
dozens more on July 20, 2012.
With only Holmes sentencing
remaining, victims of the chilling
attack will soon pass out of the
national spotlight. Their families
wont be coming together in the
courtroom each day to share a
laugh or a hug between sobs. And
while the court case brought
answers that were helpful to some,
the trials looming end leaves others feeling empty.
I mean, look at all the
Columbine victims. Does anyone
even remember their names and
faces anymore? said Caren Teves,
whose 24-year-old son, Alex, had
just earned a masters degree in
counseling psychology and died
shielding his girlfriend from the

gunfire.
Teves and her husband, Tom,
will continue their effort to urge
news organizations to focus more
on the victims and less on gunmen
after mass shootings. Last week,
Tom jumped in front of a bank of
TV cameras holding a T-shirt with
all 12 victims faces, yelling,
Theyre going to be forgotten.
Right? Theyre going to be forgotten. Everybody in this world is
going to move on, except these 12
families.
Theyve also started a scholarship foundation in Alexs name.
But they understand that as the
spotlight fades on the criminal
case, so will it fade on their son.
Its eventually going to happen, Caren Teves said. And its
all just part of the heartbreak.
For 11 weeks, the families came
in separate cars from separate
homes to the courthouse, where
they would sit together and cry
together and occasionally share a
meal together.
During court, they passed tissues during wrenching testimony,
averted their eyes from gruesome
photographs and watched Holmes

though, said the officer found


Sanders with what appeared to be
illegal drugs. Sanders and
Herrington struggled in the grass
and Sanders grabbed Herringtons
gun from his holster, only to drop
it in the grass, attorney Bill Ready
Jr. said.
Trying to sort out the facts are
the Mississippi Bureau of
Investigation and the FBI.
Herrington is on unpaid leave and
left town on a family trip, Ready
said. Sanders survivors including a mother, sister and two children buried him Saturday.
Authorities are asking for calm
while they finish investigating.
But there were already two protests
last weekend attended by hundreds
in this town of 1,100.
Another protest is planned
Sunday, as attorneys for Sanders
family paint his death as part of a
larger nationwide struggle over
police brutality against black
men, and they see it as part of the
unfinished civil rights movement
in Stonewall.
Chokwe Antar Lumumba, the
Sanders family lawyer, said authorities told relatives that an autopsy
found he died from manual
asphyxiation strangulation.
He said the manner of death was
homicide, not accidental.

Congress to-do list grows


By Andrew Taylor
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Congress
midsummer to-do list may take
until Christmas to clear.
At the top are maintaining the
flow of highway funding, easing
automatic budget cuts to the
Pentagon and domestic agencies,
renewing tax breaks and raising
the debt limit. A misstep at any of
several points could trigger a partial government shutdown.
Were going to leave that fight
till
September,
October,
November, December, Senate
Majority Whip John Cornyn, RTexas, told reporters last week,
referring to spending issues and
raising the prospect of Christmas
in the Capitol.
Such a stack of unfinished business would be a time-consuming
challenge in a well-oiled capital.

But Washington has a case of


chronic dysfunction, meaning
theres little sense of urgency and
the real potential for policymakers to end up doing the bare minimum keeping the government
on autopilot and avoiding an
economy-rattling debt default.
We ought to be meeting right
now, said Rep. Steny Hoyer of
Maryland, the second-ranking
Democrat. Were not doing that.
There have been no discussions.
An eventual repeat of a government shutdown is a real possibility, though a short-term government-wide funding measure is
likely in September and would buy
time for negotiations. One of the
biggest challenges involves finding spending cuts acceptable to
Democrats and Republicans to pay
for increases demanded by
President Barack Obama for
domestic priorities such as educa-

tion and public works projects.


Otherwise, agency budgets will
largely be frozen by the return of
automatic spending curbs.
If talks do not pan out, the sides
may have no choice but to basically keep the government on autopilot, with spending frozen at current levels for another year, denying all but the most important
increases.
The administration says Obama
would veto such legislation, setting up a potential partial closing
of the government similar to the
16-day shutdown in 2013 that was
fueled by conservative activists
and Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, over
Obamas health care law. The president will not accept a bill that
locks in the automatic spending
limits, White House budget director Shaun Donovan said recently.

a sequel to a deal negotiated by

High-stakes lobbying on Iran


deal; pressure for Congress
By Deb Riechmann
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Israels ambassador to


the United States raced in and out of offices
on Capitol Hill, trying to persuade lawmakers that the nuclear deal with Iran is a historic mistake.
On the other side, liberal groups ramped
up the pressure, warning of political consequences for Democrats who undermine the
agreement and casting opposition as a vote
for war.
The lobbying fight is on over the pact
that the U.S. and other world powers just
signed with Iran. The State Department said
Sunday it had submitted the agreement to
Congress, kicking off a 60-day review period on Monday.
Multimillion-dollar ad campaigns are
underway by politically influential groups
in each camp. Some echo the views of
Israeli
Prime
Minister
Benjamin
Netanyahu, a staunch opponent of the
agreement with Iran, which has threatened
to annihilate his nation.
Vice President Joe Biden was on Capitol
Hill twice last week for arm-twisting sessions with Democrats. Secretary of State
John Kerry and Energy Secretary Ernest
Moniz key U.S. negotiators are set to
brief lawmakers this coming week, and they

blanketed the Sunday news shows. I hope


there are enough minds still open, ready to
consider this on its merits, that could be
persuaded, Kerry told Fox News Sunday.
President Barack Obama used his weekend
radio address to try to counter what he predicted would be a lot of overheated and
often dishonest arguments in the weeks
ahead about the agreement, and he sent
Defense Secretary Ash Carter to talk with
officials in Israel as well as Jordan and Saudi
Arabia, U.S. allies whose leaders also are
worried about the deals implications.
Think tanks are releasing reams of reports
and analyses. Experts on nuclear weapons
and foreign policy are testifying at committee hearings. Right-wing radio hosts are
using the airways to condemn Obama for
what they say was his caving in to a country
that supports terrorist groups. Peace groups
are shouting their support.
Sen. Chris Coons, D-Del. , ran into
Ambassador Ron Dermer three times.
He is a very informed and persuasive
advocate for the Israeli perspective and he is
a persistent and thorough critic of the context of these negotiations and he made some
very strong points, Coons said.
The White House knows that the vote to
approve or disapprove the deal, expected in
September, puts Democrats, especially
Jewish members of Congress, in a bind.

Pentagon chief Carter not


offering arms deal to Israel
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON In the face of Israeli


outrage over the Iran nuclear accord, the
Pentagon is moving quickly to reinforce
arguably the strongest part of the U.S.Israeli relationship: military cooperation.
But officials say Washington has no
plans to offer new weaponry as compensation for the Iran deal.
Defense Secretary Ash Carter left for Tel
Aviv on Sunday to push ahead with talks on
ways the U.S. can further improve Israels
security not just with Iranian threats in
mind, but an array of other challenges,
including cyberdefense and maritime security.
Israel also has expressed concern that
U.S. sales of advanced weaponry to Gulf
Arab states has the potential of offsetting,
to some degree, Israels qualitative military
edge.
Aides said in advance of the trip that
although Carter strongly supports the Iran
deal, he had no intention of trying to

reverse Israeli opposition to it. Israeli


Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has
denounced the deal as a mistake of historic
proportion.
Carter is scheduled to meet with
Netanyahu and Israeli Defense Minister
Moshe Yaalon, as well as with Israeli generals, and visit troops in northern Israel. He
plans to stop in Jordan and Saudi Arabia,
U.S. allies whose leaders also are worried
about implications of the nuclear deal.
On the day the Iran accord was announced,
Carter issued a statement saying the U.S. is
prepared and postured to help Israel
improve its security, although he offered no
specifics. He added that the U.S. would use
the military option if necessary to protect
its allies, to check Iranian malign influence and to ensure freedom of navigation
in the Gulf.
The U.S.-Israel defense relationship has
deepened in recent years, even as tensions
between the two over how to contain Irans
nuclear program has grown.

Rep.
Paul
Ryan, R-Wis.,
and Sen. Patty
Murray,
DWash. ,
that
traded longerterm
budget
savings
and
user fees for
two years of
Ted Cruz
relief from the
automatic agency cuts.
The most recent public posture
from the White House is that
Democrats
and Republicans
should take the lead in sorting it
out. Republicans, however, are in
no hurry for negotiations and say
its up to the White House to offer
concrete spending cuts known as
offsets to finance relief for agency
budgets. What Obama wants most
is a break for domestic agencies
that, on average, face a freeze in
their day-to-day operating budg-

ets. What Republicans want most


is comparable help for the
Pentagon. But agreeing on how to
cut elsewhere in the long-term
budget to pay for new spending
now is a huge challenge, especially because a 2013 agreement vacuumed up many of the easier budget
savings and new fees.
Its harder than it was. RyanMurray used up most of the lowhanging fruit, said Ed Lorenzen, a
budget expert and former House
Democratic aide. Theres a little
bit left but it gets difficult to come
up with big numbers.
Both Lorenzen and GOP aides
noted that freezing spending at
current levels would give
Republicans some of the relief
they are looking for the Pentagon
anyway because it would provide
about $14 billion in higher war
spending than the administration
requested for the coming year.

Shiite rebel shelling in Yemen kills 45


By Ahmed al-Haj
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SANAA, Yemen Shiite rebels


and their allies in Yemen randomly
shelled a town Sunday outside of
Aden after losing control of some
the port citys neighborhoods,
killing at least 45 people and
wounding 120, officials said.
The violence highlighted the
bloody chaos of the civil war gripping the Arab worlds poorest
country, which also has been the
target of Saudi-led, U.S.-backed
airstrikes since late March.
A leader with the Shiite rebels,
known as Houthis, denied
shelling Dar Saad, a town just
north of Aden and long home to
fighters resisting their advances.
But Yemeni medical officials and a
doctor with an international aid
organization said the shelling
clearly came from the north and
east of Dar Saad areas under
rebel control.

wars fiercest ground battles, saw
Saudi-backed troops and fighters

neighborhoods and its interna-

shelling in Dar Saad appeared to
be a way to both punish those
resisting the Houthis, as well as
halt the advance of their opponents.
Yemeni medical and military

officials said hundreds of residents


fled Dar Saad amid the shelling as
ambulance rushed through the
streets, sirens wailing. They said
the shelling killed at least 45 people and wounded 120, all believed
to be civilians.

The officials spoke on condition of anonymity as they werent


authorized to brief journalists.
Abdu Mohammed Madrabi, 65,
said he was in line outside the post
office to collect his pension when
the shells hit, causing chaos.
Madrabi, who was wounded in the
neck, back and leg, said many private cars carried the wounded to
hospitals because there werent
enough ambulances.
The shelling was intense in the
neighborhood of Sharqiya, hundreds of meters from the post
office.
Its been one shell after the
other since the morning, said
Arwa Mohammed, a resident of
Sharqiya locked up in one room
with her seven-member family for
safety. We are feeling the house
is going to collapse over our
head.
Anis Othman, a neighbor of
Mohammed, also described a
scene of pandemonium.
Balls of fire are falling over our
heads amid the screams of children
and women, he said. Why all
that shelling? There are no
weapons or fighters here. They

(the rebels) want to terrorize us


and drive us out. This is only rancor and hate.
Zeifullah al-Shami, a Houthi
leader, denied targeting civilians
in the shelling, saying his forces
were engaging the rivals on the
front lines.
This is part of the media deception, he said. We didnt kill
civilians.
However, the rebels had vowed
to retaliate after losing ground in
Aden.
The rebels now are largely
based in Adens western neighborhood of Tawahi, as well as
bases east of Aden and in Lahj
province, north of the city.
Saudi-backed fighters also are
advancing on a military air base
in Lahj province.
Sunday night, anti-Houthi
forces linked up in Tawahi from
the north and south at the state television building, a Yemeni military official said.
He claimed anti-Houthi forces
fully controlled the area and said
they were searching residences for
rebels, some of whom had fled to
nearby mountains.

US-led airdrops shower leaflets US, Cuba set to reboot relations


over territories in Islamic State more than 5 decades after split
By Bassem Mroue

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BEIRUT A U.S.-led coalition dropped new leaflets over


the de facto capital of the Islamic
State group in Syria, promising
those below that freedom will
come to the region, activists
said Sunday.
An anti-Islamic State group
called Raqqa is Being Silently
Slaughtered and the Britain-based
Syrian Observatory for Human
Rights said the leaflets had drawings showing dead extremists and
their flag turned upside down.
Four fighters with the main
Kurdish militia, the Peoples
Protection Units, or YPG, walked
down a street in the picture, with
two words in Arabic below trans-

lated as Freedom will come.


The latest leaflet drop comes as
YPG fighters have been advancing
in northern Syria as close as 30
miles north of Raqqa.
Coalition
warplanes
have
dropped such leaflets in the past. A
previous one had a cartoon showing masked Islamic State extremists at a hiring office feeding
people into a meat grinder.
Also Sunday, the extremists
gave Internet cafes in Raqaa four
days to stop offering wireless
Internet connections to nearby
homes, the Observatory and Raqqa
is Being Silently Slaughtered said.
The move comes two weeks after
extremists released a video purporting to show the killing of two
Syrian men in Raqqa, allegedly for
spying.

HAVANA Cubas blue, red and

first time since the countries severed ties in 1961.
While no formal ceremony is
planned Monday for the U. S.
Interests Section in Havana, it too
will become a full-fledged
embassy just after midnight as the
Cold War foes formally enter a new
era of engagement despite what
remains a deep ideological gulf.
Its a historic moment, said
longtime Cuban diplomat and analyst Carlos Alzugaray, adding that
now the truly hard work begins:
Resolving thorny disputes such as

mutual claims for economic reparations, Havanas insistence on


the end of the 53-year-old trade
embargo and U.S. calls for Cuba to
improve on human rights and
democracy.
The significance of opening
the embassies is that trust and
respect that you can see, both
sides treating the other with trust
and respect, Alzugaray added.
That doesnt mean there arent
going to be conflicts there are
bound to be conflicts but the
way that you treat the conflict has
completely changed.
Cuba plans a solemn morning
ceremony at its stately mission in
Washington with some 500
guests, including a 30-member
delegation of diplomatic, cultural
and other leaders from the

Caribbean nation, headed by


Foreign
Minister
Bruno
Rodriguez.
The U.S. government will be
represented by Assistant Secretary
of State for Western Hemisphere
Affairs Roberta Jacobson, who led
U.S. negotiators in six months of
talks leading to the July 1
announcement that embassies
would reopen, and Jeffrey
DeLaurentis, the U. S. Interests
Section chief in Havana.
Rodriguez is scheduled to meet
later in the day with U.S. Secretary
of State John Kerry.
Officials say the U.S. Interests
Section in Havana will not immediately raise the stars and stripes,
instead waiting for a formal ceremony expected to be presided over
by Kerry in August.

Boycott San Francisco


Editor,
If anyone in San Mateo County is
disgusted as I am in the senseless
assassination of a beautiful woman in
San Francisco in the arms of her
father, please consider boycotting
San Francisco. Before you quickly go
on to the next letter, please allow me
to explain myself. After this senseless tragic incident, San Francisco
supervisors have been very quiet and
somewhat deant in taking responsibility for their sanctuary policies
which were directly responsible for
Ms. Steinles death. I agree with the
victims brother that Mr. Sanchez
looked for the most beautiful and happiest person that day and ended her
life.My heart goes out to the Steinle
family and the worst part of it is it
could have been easily avoided.
We all love going to the city, but
until there is pressure economically,
the supervisors will continue to defy
federal law and allow illegal felons to
murder our sisters and daughters in
cold blood. This could easily be
someone in our own family next
time. I look forward to federal legislation that will penalize local municipalities that ignore existing federal
law. Hit the city where it hurts the
most, in their wallet. This isnt about
immigrants or race; this is about convicted felons who remain in our country illegally.
Pretty soon, this lovely woman
will fade from our memories as the
tragedy of the Bologna family has.
How many more of our loved ones
need to be gunned down by people in
our country illegally? Take a stand;
consider boycotting San Francisco.

scratch my head and wonder just who
is running our city. They want you to
think they are building low-income
housing; one example the units at
620-640 Veterans Blvd. charge rent
from $3,000-$5,800 per month.
Something is seriously wrong with
this whole process and it needs everyones attention right now before we
ruin this wonderful city.
Whether this bothers you or not the
city of Redwood City wants to thanks
you for conserving water, they need it
for all their developments.
Cities all over California have made
the mistake of overbuilding and now
they are wondering where their water
is going to come from. Lets not
make that mistake.

Cap and trade taxes


Editor,
So, as expected, this cap and trade
tax is just another fancy way of
adding taxes to the general funds.
No matter what state Sen. Jerry Hill
says and how it gets explained, it
should not be used for Caltrain's electrication plans (Hill seeks more
cap and trade funds for transit in the
July 17 edition of the Daily Journal).
Taxes have already been paid by all
of us and every business have to live
within their means, Caltrain is one of
them. This is just another proof that
all these fancy names for taxation
mean nothing once the money has

Editor,
In an ideal world the Republicans
suggesting that Donald Trump tone
down his talks on immigration would
be doing so because they think his
hot air would be contributing to global warming. Unfortunately we know
that they dont believe in science so
that option is eliminated. A more
practical reason is based on their philosophy of do as I say, not as I do.
Tightening immigration laws and
deporting millions would reduce their
pool of cheap labor for both their
corporations and personal uses resulting in fewer almighty dollars in their
pocket.

Hot air or cheap labor

Editor,
The thought process of elected leaders amuses me. How can you blatantly
disregard the safety of all citizens at
the hands of illegal immigrants? You
(the politicians and bleeding hearts)
assume that these people are all goodnatured loving working people. Guess
what? You are wrong. It takes only
one instance and you have been discredited. Well, it has happened not
just once but many times. How is that
acceptable? People have been murdered, robbed, raped and beaten by
illegal immigrants in this country. It
should not ever happen to any legal
American citizen. That is what our
border is for. We need to protect it
guard it and secure it so no one can
get here unless we know who they
are. Sanctuary city? What a joke and
disgrace to U.S. citizens. This is truly
a no-brainer, so simple. Deport every
illegal, they have zero rights here.
Enforce the border. Build a wall and
remind Mexico and South America
you may come here but you need to do
it the right way, not your way.

Should every high


school grad attend a
four-year college?

nly about half the students, if that, in my high


school and maybe yours, went to a four-year college. Attending a four-year college was not for
everyone. My parents, even though well educated, never
went. Nor did the parents of most of my friends. That all
changed after the second world war with the GI Bill which
enabled returning veterans, most of whom never contemplated attending college, the nancial ability to do so.
By the 1960s, the hope was that most American high
school graduates would pursue at least four more years of
education. By the 1980s, vocational courses at public
high schools were eased out or reduced to accommodate
college prep offerings. In 1967, the California Legislature
created the states community college system, which
now consists of 112 districts serving more than
2.4 million students, and
is the largest system of
higher education in the
world. But way before that,
authorities saw a benet to
society in education
beyond high school but
realized the load could not
be lled by existing colleges. In 1907, the
Legislature authorized the
states high schools to create junior colleges to offer
postgraduate courses similar to what is offered in the
rst two years of college. And so community colleges
became part of the California Master Plan for Education
along with universities and state colleges.
***
Dr. Elizabeth Stone, Ph.D. in education, UC Berkeley, a
San Mateo native (her dad, Dan was the vice principal of
San Mateo High School and her mother Ann a member of
the city librarys board) invited me to a panel discussion,
following a showing of a documentary the Ivory Tower
at Aragon High School. I wasnt able to attend, but Stone
loaned me the DVD. It raised many questions about higher
education and didnt provide many answers. But it was
provocative and inspired me to write this column and
maybe a few others. As for the question should everyone
attend a four year college, the answer may be it all
depends. Its a timely question because of the awesome
burden of student debt, the high cost of a college degree,
the inability of many to nish four-year college because
of academic and nancial challenges. Add to the mix that
our states underfunded system means students cant enroll
in the courses they need to graduate in a four-year time
frame so its no longer a four-year, but a ve- or six-year
experience which makes it even more expensive.
***
Stone is the executive director of Campanile college
admissions counseling and also runs a nonprot to help
students who cant afford pay courses to prep for the SATs.
When I popped the question, she said if the student had the
skills, the student should denitely attend a four-year college or university. She pointed out it is difcult to transfer
from a community college. Students will be transferring
as juniors, which means they need to choose a major and
take the prerequisites for that major. Not many community
college students are able to do this. Also, its easier to earn
scholarship money for the rst year of college, much
harder for the third and fourth year. Still many students
follow this route because they dont have the grades or
scores for a four-year and most likely because they dont
have the money.
The good news is that UC plans to streamline the transfer path from community college and make it less confusing. Ofcials hope the new system will help admit at least
2,000 more transfer students one for every two freshmen. The new system will have uniform requirements for
those who plan to major in anthropology, bio-chemistry,
biology, cell biology, chemistry, economics, math,
molecular biology, physics and sociology. Other majors
will follow suit. There is a website, assist.org, which tells
users which community college courses satisfy requirements at each of the UC systems four-year colleges.
***
President Obama, Gov. Jerry Brown and many educators
are now encouraging students to opt for two-year colleges
which provide the job skills they need. In fact, most students attend college today to prepare for a career rather
than to improve their minds. For some elds, a community college education is the right ticket. What employers
are looking for are students with a post high school education. And for too many, a four-year university degree may
not t their needs (Future column: why is college so
expensive? Even a community college education is no
longer free).

Change seems likely for e-cigarettes


By Julia Horowitz
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SACRAMENTO The Vapor


Spot doesnt immediately conjure
images of the Wild West. Theres a
curved, neon-backed bar and fulllength windows at the downtown
Sacramento shop. The high
exposed ceilings are decked with
orbed light fixtures to give the
expansive space a warm glow.
Patrons gather in the vape shop
to smoke electronic cigarettes,
inhaling nicotine through a flavored vapor solution, known as
juice.
It may appear laid back. But
there is real muscle beneath the
specialty e-cigarette retailers
trendy skin: a booming billiondollar industry that has operated
largely free of government regulations, ruled almost entirely by
small business vigilantes who are
making hefty profits.
If its not a Wild West, its close.
But with anti-smoking groups
demanding change, government
regulations are all but imminent.
One California state lawmaker
backs legislation that would regulate e-cigarettes as tobacco.
In 2014, there were roughly

25,000 e-cigarette retailers in the


U. S. , the Stanford Prevention
Research Center estimated. But
with 1, 400 vape shops in
California alone, proponents consider it the epicenter of the movement.
Over the past five years youve
seen my business grow from zero
to hero, said John JJ Jenkins,
who left his job as an animator to
open The Vapor Spot in Los
Angeles in 2010. He now owns
four locations.
With a Wells Fargo analysis
forecasting the industry will top
$10 billion annually by 2017, and
big tobacco companies angling to
take three-quarters of the market,
calls for regulation are growing
louder.

Big tobacco
R. J. Reynolds announced in
February that its Vuse e-cigarette
is sold at 100, 000 retailers
nationwide, and Altria is pushing
its MarkTen e-cigarettes while
spending millions to buy vapor
companies. Altria announced
Thursday that it will be working
with Philip Morris International
to research and develop e-cigarette
products.

Anti-smoking groups are outraged that e-cigarettes skirt virtually all oversight.
The industry says e-cigarettes
are a new technology that differs
from traditional cigarettes and
shouldnt be forced to follow
tobacco laws or pay tobacco
taxes. E-cigarettes are batterypowered devices that heat liquid
nicotine into an inhalable vapor.
The U. S. Food and Drug
Administration is weighing regulations that would subject e-cigarette products to federal review and
require health warnings on packages.
Irrespective of the fact that
there are small independent players, Big Tobacco is buying up this
industry faster than I am speaking, said California Sen. Mark
Leno, D-San Francisco. Leno is
pushing legislation that calls for
e-cigarettes and its paraphernalia
to be regulated as a tobacco product.
Leno said the coveted market for
the industry is young people and
he points to vapor solutions in
flavors like bubblegum that target
them. The California Department
of Public Health says people 18 to
29 are three times as likely to use

e-cigarettes as those 30 and older;


the Centers for Disease Control
says e-cigarette use tripled among
middle and high school students
from 2013 to 2014.
Californias only state law regulating e-cigarettes forbids selling
them to minors.
Proprietors say they do not target minors, instead focusing on
claims that vaping helps smokers
quit traditional cigarettes.
James Uy, 30, who manages
Planet of the Vapes in Sacramento,
said vaping has helped him reduce
his nicotine use after having
smoked a pack a day since childhood.
Vaping gave me a little hope,
he said, standing near a display
touting peanut butter crunch juice
as the flavor of the day.

Testimonials
Blogs are filled with testimonials from longtime smokers who
say theyve kicked the habit.
Adherents also tout the social
environment of vapor bars, which
serve as informal support groups.
Some even use e-cigarettes in
place of marijuana.
Instead of always smoking
weed I needed to have some flavor

in my life, so I decided, OK, Ill hit


up vapes, said Fallon Ferguson,
18, who said she has been vaping
for about a year.
The industry offers a textbook
case for studying the effects of
government regulation.

Unfettered innovation
On one hand, vaping is seeing
unfettered innovation without the
burden of bureaucracy.
New products hit stores almost
weekly.
Proponents say vaping is experiencing a technology boom,
and is much more Silicon Valley
than hippy Haight-Ashbury.
Products that we had two years
ago are pretty much considered
dinosaurs compared to whats out
right now, said Scot Taylor, 26,
who manages The Vapor Spots
Sacramento location.
But self-regulation only goes so
far. Supporters pride themselves
on vigilante justice that calls out
shady operators on message
boards but acknowledge the
rumors about unclean products
made in bathtubs and garages.
I wouldnt be mad if theyre
going to regulate the juices, Uy
said.

Shrinking Kodak takes on IOUs for RIPs:


Greeces cash
new role: startup landlord crunch hurting
By Carolyn Thompson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ROCHESTER, N.Y. The chemical know-how and machines that


spooled out countless miles of
film are being eyed for medical
marijuana and solar cells, while
the private rail line now carries
tomatoes alongside coal as photography pioneer Kodak, its bankruptcy behind it, embraces a new
role: startup landlord.
The 127-year-old company had
buildings and infrastructure to
rival a small city when digital
photography bumped its familiar
yellow boxes from tourists camera bags and took over much of
Hollywood.
But rather than selling off its
sprawling, 2-square-mile Kodak
Park campus, the company has
become landlord to 58 diverse
companies and counting that
have been courted with the promise of plentiful utilities, its own
railroad and unique access to
Kodaks specialty technical and
industrial capabilities.

Theres tremendous value in


being able to repurpose the assets
that exist here, said Michael Alt,
the retiring director of the renamed
Eastman Business Park.
For example, tenant Natcore
Technology Inc. can tap Kodaks
film-coating capability in its
development of solar cells, and
LiDestri Food & Beverage uses
Kodaks short-line railroad, which
brings coal to the on-site power
plant, to haul the tomatoes it
processes into pasta sauces and
salsa.
Two medical marijuana companies want to put pharmaceuticalgrade dispensaries in vacant buildings on the site if New York awards
them licenses later this summer.
No one expects the site to again
reach its 30,000-worker peak, but
estimates for 10,000 to 11,000
employees in a few years are seen
as realistic. About 6,000 people
now work there, roughly 1,200 of
them Kodak employees.
Alt pitches the sites 125megawatt power plant capacity
enough to serve the equivalent of

100,000 homes its own water


purification plant, waste water
treatment facility, fire department
and chemical and testing labs as
amenities that let startup companies target investment toward
their specific needs and get to market more quickly. With the 20month Chapter 11 bankruptcy
nearly two years in its past, companies scared off by Kodaks
uncertain future have found reassurance, he and others said.
One of the things that appealed
to us was that Kodak had roll-toroll equipment that they used in
making photo film that they dont
use any more because of digital
cameras, said David Rutkin,
spokesman for Natcore, which is
relocating its corporate headquarters from Red Bank, New Jersey, to
Rochester. One of the things on
our radar are flexible solar cells ...
and they would be made using the
same equipment.
New York state has so far committed $100 million to efforts to
re-invent the park to a multi-tenant, multi-use site.

funeral industry
By Anna Psaroudakis
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ATHENS, Greece Greeces


cash crisis has disrupted all
aspects of daily life death
included.
Greek funeral homes are struggling to cope with banking
restrictions that limit customers
to taking out only 60 euros ($65) a
day in cash. Even a modest funeral
service in Greece costs more than
15 times that, in a country that traditionally carries out funerals
shortly after death and pays for
them almost entirely in cash.
With the capital controls at the
banks, no matter who we asked
money from, we couldnt even
recover our costs, said Eustratios
Voulamandis, who runs a funeral
home in a blue-collar neighborhood west of Athens.
In a back room of the funeral

home, work has carried on in the


last few weeks. Employees
removed shrink wrap from coffins
and used a staple gun to fasten
ornamental fabric around the caskets. But Voulamandis business
relies on lump sum payments made
by survivors that start at 800 euros
($866) and are currently impossible to collect.
To get started on a funeral service, we need 800-1,000 euros but
people are giving us 50, 70, even
20 euros and telling us its all they
have, he said.
Funeral homes demand that
much money upfront because of
fears they wont get paid by cashstrapped Greeks after the ceremony.
And its almost always cash.
Credit cards and especially checks
are rarely used for such transactions in Greece, which remains a
cash-based economy.

Pacifica PONY 13s back on top

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

TERRY BERNAL/DAILY JOURNAL

Pacificas Jerico Nojadera legs out a bunt


during a two-run rally in the sixth inning of a
5-4 win over Rocklin to advance to the PONY
13U West Zone Tournament.

CAMPBELL Remember last years


Pacica team that came within one game of
advancing to the Little League World Series?
Well, theyre still ballin.
The Pacica 13-and-under PONY squad
led by nine players who helped last years
Pacica American Majors Little League
team to the West Regional Playoffs has
done it again.
P-Town swept through four games in the
PONY 13U Super Regional at John D.

Morgan Park, capped by a 5-4 victory over


Rocklin in Saturdays championship game.
With the win, Pacica advances to the
PONY 13U West Zone Playoffs, starting
Friday in Whittier, for a chance to qualify
for the PONY-13 World Series.
Were really excited, Pacica manager
Dave Shaw said. In terms of the level of
play, its similar to what we did with the
Little League group so the level of play
got really interesting when we got down to
the last four teams. It got a lot better.
The competition culminated in a matchup
with Rocklin, an old rival that has slugged

it out with Pacica in two previous seasons.


Last year, Pacica defeated the same
Rocklin squad then known as Woodcreek
in the Division 2 Section championship
game to advance to the West Regional tournament. And in 2012, after Pacica
advanced through the Little League 10-andunder Division 2 winners bracket,
Woodcreek pulled off an upset with two
straight wins to end Pacicas season.
Pacicas Chris Rodriguez made certain

SSF is World Series bound

Giants sweep
Peninsula League playoff win sends SSF to Joe DiMaggio World Series throughZona
By Jose M. Romero

By Terry Bernal

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

What a moment to come up with the catch


of a lifetime.
South San Francisco left fielder Daniel
Perez snatched a Joe DiMaggio World Series
berth from San Bruno in Sundays Peninsula
League playoff finals at Marchbank Park.
Amid a tie ballgame in the bottom of the seventh, San Bruno had runners on the corners
and two outs when Kyle Patterson drilled a
long fly ball to left field.
The shot looked destined to give San Bruno
a walk-off victory. Perez, however, was having none of that.
At first I was just saying, hit it to me,
because I knew I wanted it, Perez said. And as
soon as he hit it I knew I going to lay out.
Perez sprinted back to track down the long
liner with a tumbling dive to end the San
Bruno threat, forcing extra innings. Then
cleanup hitter Maligi Maluia promptly
homered in the top of the eighth to give SSF
a 3-2 victory to claim the lone wild-card berth
out of the Peninsula League this season.
With the win, SSF (14-7) joins North
Peninsula champion Pacifica and South
Peninsula champ Half Moon Bay by advancing to the Joe D. World Series beginning
Friday in Napa at Justin Siena High School.
Weve had a lot of close ballgames, SSF
interim manager Paul Cormican said. But its
good to come out on top of this one here.
For Cormican, filling in for regular manager Brian Ghilarducci, the playoff win marked
his first all-time managerial win. Two years
ago, he was a player for the SSF squad,
though he has never advanced to the Joe D.
World Series. The first-year coach has that in
common with Maligi, whose big swing of
the bat in the eighth gave SSF the lead.
Maligi had his back up against the wall in
the at-ball. With two outs and a 0-2 count,
San Bruno reliever Rory McDaid challenged
Maligi with a high-and-away fastball. But the
powerful cleanup hitter squared it up and

eighth-inning home run to give his team a 3-2 win over San Bruno in the Joe DiMaggio
Peninsula League playoff finals Sunday at Marchbank Park.

PHOENIX Even with his bullpen overworked the previous two days, Giants manager Bruce Bochy decided that there was no
point in pushing ace Madison Bumgarner
beyond five innings and 93 pitches on
Sunday.
Bumgarner got by without his best stuff
and combined with four relievers to scatter
nine hits, and Justin Maxwell homered to
help San Francisco beat
the Diamondbacks 2-1.
Bumgarner
(10-5)
allowed a run and four
hits with three strikeouts
and a walk in his first
start since July 10.
That was far enough.
Thats a lot of work,
said
of
Justin Maxwell Bochy
Bumgarner. When you
get that many pitches. he did his job.
Theres no point in pushing him the way we
pushed him last year.
The Giants won their sixth straight game
and swept their second straight three-game
series.
Bumgarner praised the relievers as George
Kontos, Javier Lopez, Hunter Strickland and
Santiago Casilla kept the lead.
Weve got guys in the bullpen that are
obviously capable of coming in and shutting the door, which they did, Bumgarner
said. It worked out great for us. Theyve
been unbelievable.
San Francisco relievers combined for 13
2/3 innings in the series.
The Diamondbacks have lost six straight.
Maxwells seventh home run of the season
gave the Giants a 1-0 lead off Arizona starter
Patrick Corbin in the second inning.
Corbins hustle then helped even the score
in the bottom of the inning when he beat the
throw from second base on a double-play
attempt.
With the bases loaded and one out, Corbin
grounded to Brandon Crawford at shortstop,
who got one out at second. Joe Paniks

Spieth, amateur Dunne eyeing history at St. Andrews


By Doug Ferguson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ST. ANDREWS, Scotland For a place


dripping with centuries of history, St.
Andrews got more than it could have wanted
Sunday.
Jordan Spieth punched his golf bag in
frustration after a careless bogey, perhaps
sensing the British Open was slipping
away. Just like that, and because this is what
Spieth does in big moments, he salvaged
his bid for a Grand Slam. He made three

straight birdies. He took 10 putts on the


inward nine. And when he walked off the
18th green, he had a 6-under 66 and was one
shot behind with one round left.
Im going to play to win, Spieth said.
Im not playing for a place. I dont want to
place third tomorrow. I want to win.
But if there is history in the making at the
home of golf, it no longer has to come from
just Spieth.
Fans who filled the two-story grandstand
and watched from the tops of buildings on
Golf Place witnessed a moment not seen at

St. Andrews in 88 years an amateur in the


lead going into the final round of the
British Open.
Paul Dunne, the 22-year-old from Ireland,
rolled in putts like this was the prestigious
St. Andrews Links Trophy for amateurs
instead of the oldest championship in golf.
He played bogey-free for a 66 and shared the
lead with former Open champion Louis
Oosthuizen and Jason Day.
Bobby Jones is the last amateur to win the
British Open in 1930 when he came from
one shot behind in the final round. He was

the last amateur to lead after 54 holes three


years earlier at St. Andrews, and he won the
claret jug that year, too.
Can it happen again?
Its surreal Im leading the Open, but I
can easily believe that I shot the three
scores that I shot, Dunne said. If we were
playing an amateur event here, I wouldnt be
too surprised by the scores I shot. Its just
lucky that it happens to be in the biggest
event in the world.

Mexico advances
to Gold Cup semis

P-TOWN

Guardados last-minute PK
gives Mexico dramatic win

advancing through the losers bracket, didnt pull off another upset.
Rodriguez was a force in every facet of the
game. As Pacicas starting pitcher, the
right-hander worked ve-plus innings to
earn the win. At the plate he went 3 for 3 with
an RBI and two runs scored. He even made a
sensational defensive play to facilitate an
unlikely double play in the third inning.
He was out of his mind, Shaw said of
Rodriguezs pitching performance. With the
hot weather, I wasnt expecting him to go
ve or six innings but he was dynamite on
the hill. He was keeping people off balance
all day.
Rodriguez worked in and out of trouble
throughout, as Rocklin had runners in scoring position in each of the six innings he
started. After the right-hander yielded one run
in the rst inning to give Rocklin an early 10 lead, however, Rodriguez didnt surrender
another run.
Pacica tied it in the top of the third.
Rodriguez walloped a one-out double into the
left-center gap. Then after a single by Will
Mauer to put runners at the corners, Justice
Turner produced a sacrice y to tie it 1-1.
Rodriguezs highlight-reel play in the bottom of the inning kept the score deadlocked.
Rocklin had runners at the corners with one
out when cleanup hitter James Courshon hit a
grounder to rst. Pacica rst baseman
Andrew Harkness froze the runner Garret
Forrester at third and threw to second, but
shortstop Christian Falks throw back to
rst to attempt the twin killing sailed wide of
Harkness.
With Rodriguez having dispatched towards
rst base in case he had to take the return
throw, however, he instead backed up the
play. And his being in the right place at the
right time was shades of Derek Jeters iconic
play from the 2001 American League
Division Series against the Oakland As.

Chris Rodriguez went 3 for 3 at the plate in


addition to firing five innings to earn the win
Saturday in the PONY 13U Super Regioinal
championship game.
Rodriguez gathered the ball as it careened
off the dugout fence and upon hearing
Rocklins rst base coach shout to the runner at third to go turned and red home
with catcher Jeremy Keller slapping the tag
on Forrester to complete the unorthodox
double play.
It pumped me up, Rodriguez said. It denitely gave me a lot more energy to go deeper in the game.
With the game still tied in the fourth,
Rodriguez battled out of another jam with
runners at the corners and one out, recording
back-to-back strikeouts to retire the side.
Rodriguez recorded four punch-outs in the
game.
In the fth, Pacica jumped on top.
Rodriguez and Mauer led off with back-to-back
singles, then Turner shot an RBI single to
center to give Pacica the lead. With runners
at the corners, Falk grounded into a double
play, but scoring Mauer to put Pacica up 3-1.

In the sixth, Pacica added a pair of insurance runs. Harkness led off with a walk. Then
Jerico Nojadera laid down a perfect sacrice
bunt and reached on an error by the Rocklin
pitcher. With ducks on the pond, Rodriguez
delivered again, driving a two-run double
into the left-eld corner to give Pacica a 51 lead.
Hes been doing good the whole tournament, Falk said. Hes been hitting the crap
out of the ball.
In the bottom of the frame, the rst two
Rocklin batters reached before Pacica went
to the bullpen. Shaw summoned Falk, who
issued a walk to Riley Regan to load the
bases. But then the right-hander settled
down. He notched his rst of three strikeouts
for the rst out of the inning. Then he
induced a one-hopper to the third-base bag
that Noah Noa gloved, stepped on the base,
and red to rst to complete an inning-ending double play.
Things got interesting in the bottom of
the seventh though. After Falk recorded
back-to-back strikeouts to start the inning,
Blatnick reached on a walk. Courshon then
reached on an ineld error. Alec Gums followed with an RBI double and J.T. Bauser
reached on an ineld throwing error to score
Courshon and Gums, closing Pacicas lead
to 5-4.
Falk buckled down though to induce a
grounder to second with Mauer throwing to
rst for the nal out of the tournament.
When we missed the groundball I had a
little more adrenaline, Falk said. But I was
still just trying to hit my spots.
The West Zone Regional playoffs begin
Friday at York Field in Whittier, with eight
teams contending in the double-elimination
tournament. The eld includes teams from
Scottsdale,
Arizona;
South
Sound,
Washington; Southeast Valley, Utah; Hilo,
Hawaii; and two teams from Southern
California.
The West Zone Regional winner advances
to the PONY-13 World Series, also held at
York Field in Whittier, beginning July 31.
The World Series eld is comprised of eight
teams, four teams from the U.S., and four
international teams.

As score 14 to blast Twins


By Janie McCauley
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

OAKLAND Jake Smolinski has made a


big impression with his bat in less than 24
hours of his first home games for Oakland.
Smolinski homered twice for four RBIs a
day after driving in the tying run in the ninth
as a pinch hitter, Josh Reddick hit a grand
slam and the Athletics slugged past the Twins
14-1 on Sunday.
Just about everybody got involved in this
rare rout to support hard-luck starter Jesse
Chavez.
Billy Butler and Josh Phegley hit two-run
homers for the As, who cleared the fences a
season-high five times to boost their 2015
total to 80.
Smolinski hit a three-run homer in the
eighth and an earlier solo shot for his first
career multihomer game. The outfielder was
promoted from Triple-A on July 7.
Chavez (5-9) struck out nine in six innings
for his second highest total of the year. He
snapped a three-start losing streak with his
first victory since June 23 at Texas, escaping
a bases-loaded jam in the fourth.

Milone saw the end of his streak of four

Greinke extends
scoreless streak
By David Elfin
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Zack Greinke extended


his scoreless streak to 43 2/3 innings, striking a season-high 11
through the eighth and
leading the Dodgers over
the Nationals 5-0 Sunday.
Greinkes string is the
longest in the majors
since Orel Hershiser set
the major league record of
59 shutout innings in
Zack Greinke 1988 with the Dodgers.
Last Tuesday night,
Greinke started the All-Star Game and gave up
a leadoff homer to Mike Trout, but that run
doesnt count in the regular-season statistics.
Only Hershisher and Hall of Famers Don
Drysdale (58) and Bob Gibson (47) have had
longer scoreless spans than Greinke during
the post-1960 expansion era.

The Giants placed backup C Andrew Susac on the
15-day disabled list with a

Susac was injured in

Andrew Susac Relief pitcher Jeremy

strain) threw his second rehab assignment for
Triple-A Sacramento on Saturday and will join
the Giants in San Diego this week, Bochy

he feels, Bochy said.

Sports brief
Trainer: California Chrome
to return to racing in 2016
DEL MAR Trainer Art Sherman says
California Chrome, winner of the 2014
Kentucky Derby and Horse of the Year, will
return to racing next year.
The 4-year-old colt is currently recovering from a bone bruise injury at Taylor Made
Farm in Kentucky, which triggered speculation that his racing career might be over.
Sherman says California Chrome will
likely need three months of recovery, and
then the colt will return to his base at Los
Alamitos Race Course in Southern
California. The trainer says California
Chrome will be pointed toward next years
Pacific Classic at Del Mar.
Sherman spoke Sunday at Del Mar, saying
hes elated to eventually have the horse
back in his care.
Last week, Taylor Made purchased the
minority ownership share of Steve Coburn,
leaving Perry Martin as the majority owner
of California Chrome.
The colt won the Preakness last year, but
his Triple Crown bid was derailed with a
fourth-place finish in the Belmont.

tom of the eighth. The right-hander entered


with one out in the seventh and set down all
five batters he faced, including an out on the
remarkable catch by Perez. San Bruno also
squared up two offerings in the eighth
inning, but line drives by each McDaid and
Joe Galea found their way right into the
glove of center fielder Harley Torres.
We hit the ball hard all day, just right at
guys, San Bruno manager Edgar Hernandez
said. Thats been the story of our season.
San Brunos hard-luck loud contact started
in the first inning against SSF starting
pitcher Michael Espino. Cole Galli led off
the first with a single to center. But after a
sacrifice bunt by Patterson, McDaid hit a
screaming liner directly at Perez in left, who
caught it and fired behind Galli at second for
a double play.
[San Bruno] came out from the first pitch
of the game and hit the ball hard, and our
guys made plays, Cormican said.
San Bruno got on the board in the second
inning when, with runners at first and third
and one out, Antonio Martinucci delivered an
RBI groundout. But SSF avoided a further
threat when first baseman Nico Delgado
gunned down Ryan Cuddys attempt to
advance to third.
SSF jumped out front in the fourth. Ramiro
Gonzales opened the inning with a walk and
Maluia followed with a single to left. Jesus
Jimenez bunted both runners over. Delgado

then tied it with an RBI groundout. Thomas


Cronin followed with an RBI single give SSF
a 2-1 lead.
San Bruno (16-5) nearly tied it in the bottom of the fourth when Kevin Uniacke led off
the frame with a towering shot that bounced
high off the wall left-center. Uniacke was
stranded on second, but San Bruno was able
to tie it up in the following inning on an RBI
single by Patterson to score Joe Katout.
Otherwise, starting pitchers Espino and
Galea locked up for a fine pitching duel.
Galea lasted six innings while Espino
worked six-plus. Both took no-decisions.
No one wants to lose, Hernandez said. I
think ultimately, were the best team. Our
record shows it. But they played good today
and they deserve it.
SSFs good play was exemplified by Perez,
who has played a corner outfield spot all
summer, and mostly patrolled left for as a
senior at South City in the spring. And his
superb diving catch in the seventh saved
SSFs season.
I didnt think he had a chance to get it,
Hernandez said. It was hit too hard. But he
made a great play.
SSF opens play in the Joe D. World Series
Friday against Tri-Valley. Pacifica will take
on the San Francisco Irish in a rematch of the
Fourth of July Tournament championship
game earlier this season. Pacifica won that
matchup 2-1 in eight innings.

Tour de France leader Froome on defensive against skeptics


By John Leicester
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

VALENCE, France Despite his comfortable lead in the Tour de France, Chris
Froome heads into the Alps the last big
hurdle between him and victory in Paris
on the defensive.
Not against other contenders for the podium. They are long gone in the British riders
rear-view mirror. But against skeptics created by the cheating of Lance Armstrong and
other dopers, and against the legions of
fans they betrayed.
For many of those cycling fans, Froomes
performances are so good that they must be
too good to be true. The leader of Team Sky
said one spectator even hurled a cup of urine
at him this weekend, shouting Doper!
In short, Froome finds himself in the
impossible position of being damned by
his own success. No matter how many times
he insists that he is clean, the words fall on
deaf ears. As they would: After all,
Armstrong used to say that, too.
Froome understands that. He knows that
the yellow jersey he wears has been so
soiled by the deceit of those who wore it
before him that some of that dirt, deservedly or not, is going to rub off on him, too.
Being doubted, being hauled over of the
coals of suspicion day-in, day-out, is the

bill that must be paid now for winning a
post-Armstrong Tour, especially when
youre crushing rivals with apparent ease
like the American did on the seven Tour victories that were later stripped from him.
Two weeks in, the skepticism is getting
under Froomes very thick skin. Its hard to
find a more mild-mannered chap in the pelo-

ton than the gangly, sometimes awkward,


Kenya-born Briton. But as he prepares for
the Alps, the ultimate test at this Tour, a
hardening in his attitude and tone is unmistakable.
He blames very irresponsible media for
turning public opinion against him. He
started on that theme Saturday after the urine

incident and developed it Sunday after safely negotiating Stage 15 that ended with a
bunch sprint won by Andre Greipel. It was
the Germans third victory at this Tour, and
it left Froomes large lead intact.
If people are led to believe that these
performances are not legitimate, thats
whats going to push them to start booing,
and to start punching and spitting and
throwing urine on riders, Froome said.
And for those who will still listen, he
again repeated that times have changed
from the Armstrong era.
This isnt the wild west that it was 10 or
15 years ago, he said. Of course, there are
still going to be riders who take risks in
this day and age, but they are the minority.
It was the other way around 10 or 15
years ago. There is no reason in this day and
age for that level of suspicion to continue.
Theres absolutely no reason.
Still, French police took no chances.
Following the urine assault, they posted
half a dozen officers around Team Skys bus
at the start of Sundays 183-kilometer (114mile) stage from Mende to Valence.
Because of its flat finish, Stage 15 represented the last opportunity for heavy, muscular sprinters to shine before light but
strong climbers like Froome take back the
spotlight in the Alps in the last week, after
a rest day on Tuesday.

3-time world champ fights shark


during South Africa competition
By Lynsey Chutel
JOHANNESBURG Knocked off
his board by an attacking shark,
three-time world champion Mick
Fanning punched the creature before
escaping unharmed during the televised finals of a world surfing competition in South Africa on Sunday.
The Australian surfer was struck
by the shark from behind and
knocked into the water as he sat on
his board waiting his turn during the
JBay Open in Jeffreys Bay in the
Eastern Cape Province.
As he scans the water, two fins
appear and with a splash he disappears under the surface. He is next
seen furiously trying to swim to
safety before a rescuer pulls him out
of the water.

I felt something grab, get


stuck in my leg
rope
and
instantly jump
away. And it just
kept coming at
my
board,
Fanning said,
Mick Fanning once safe on the
rescue boat.
Fanning said at first he swam
away but then decided to defend himself and turned to punch the shark in
the back.
I saw it taking my board away
and I just started cracking it, he told
a crowd that gathered around him
once he was back on shore, referring
to how he struck the shark.
Im totally fine. Ive got nothing wrong with me, Fanning said

in an interview. Theres a small


depression in my board and my leg
wrap (was) bitten. Im just totally
tripping out. To walk away from
that, Im just so stoked. Oh man.
The World Surf League cancelled
the remainder of the event.
Fanning will split the prize
money with fellow Australian surfer
Julian Wilson, who was also in the
water when the attack happened.
The two will share second place.
We are incredibly grateful that no
one was seriously injured today,
the league said in a statement.
Micks composure and quick acting
in the face of a terrifying situation
was nothing short of heroic.
Commentator Ross Williams said
there are occasionally shark sightings in and around events but an
actual attack was very unusual.

Jordan Spieth of the U.S. hits his tee shot on the 18th hole during the third
round of the British Open golf championship Sunday in Scotland.

GOLF
Continued from page 11
The way the weather-delayed
Open ended on Sunday, expect just
about anything.
Oosthuizen, the last player to lift
the claret jug at St. Andrews in 2010
and a runner-up at the U.S. Open last
month, birdied three of his last five
holes for a 67. Day is just as big of
a threat. He shot 67 and shared the
lead for the second straight major,
and he has challenged in four of
them since 2011.
They were at 12-under 214, one
shot ahead of Spieth with plenty of
others that cannot be dismissed
Fourteen players were separated by
three shots. Half of them were
major champions, and there was yet
another amateur among them 21year-old Jordan Niebrugge of
Oklahoma State.
Such an opportunity might not
come around again for Spieth. Only
three other players won the first two
legs of the Grand Slam since the modern version began in 1960. Arnold
Palmer, Jack Nicklaus and Tiger
Woods only got one shot at it, and
none ever started the final round of
the British Open so close to the lead.
And so it was Spieth, a 21-yearold Texan with an uncanny sense of
occasion, who brought the gray, old
town to life in a mixture of sunshine
and rain. He rolled in birdie putts on
the 10th, 11th and 12th holes to
share the lead. He saved par from the
high grass on the 13th, stuffed his

approach to 4 feet for birdie on the


15th and made another tough par
save on the Road Hole at the 17th.
A victory would send him to the
PGA Championship with a shot at
the Grand Slam, and at worse put
him in elite company. Ben Hogan
in 1953 is the only other player to
capture the Masters, U.S. Open and
British Open in the same year.
Only one person has ever done it
before. That opportunity very
rarely comes around, Spieth said.
And Id like to have a chance to do
something nobody has ever done.
... To be able to go into the last
major and accomplish something
thats never been done in our sport
is something that only comes
around to a couple people ever. And
Id like to be one of those people to
have that happen.
One day after raging wind off the
Eden Estuary caused a 10-hour delay
and forced a Monday finish, the
flags were soaked from passing
showers and limp from no wind.
The leaderboards were loaded with
birdies, and seven players had at
least a share of the lead at some
point in the third round.
Thats what made Dustin
Johnsons collapse so shocking.
With a one-shot lead after powering
his way around St. Andrews for 36
holes, he was the last player in the
field to make a birdie Sunday, and
that wasnt until the 15th hole. He
followed with three straight bogeys
for a 75 to fall five shots behind.
Spieth, the youngest professional in the field, seemed calm despite
the historic moment in front of
him.

Ant-Man debuts with $58M;


Trainwreck hits $30.2M mark
By Jake Coyle
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK Marvels Ant-Man


punched above its weight at the weekend
box office, debuting with an estimated $58
million,
while
Amy
Schumers
Trainwreck also opened strongly with
$30.2 million.
The result for Ant-Man didnt match
some of Marvels better known and
brawnier properties. But Ant-Man a
relatively inexpensive superhero movie
with a $130 million budget still dominated North American multiplexes, edging
out the little yellow guys of Universals
Minions, which took in $50.2 million in
its second week.
Ant-Man, starring Paul Rudd as a slightly more irreverent and distinctly smaller
superhero, came in a little below earlier
stand-alone Marvel films like Thor
($65. 7 million in 2011) and Captain
America: The First Avenger ($65.1 million
in 2011).
Dave Hollis, head of distribution at
Disney, credited Marvel for successfully
expanding its universe both in tone and
audience makeup. The movie, a more humorous heist film, appealed more to women (42
percent of the audience) and families (28
percent) than most Marvel releases.
Most encouragingly in this one, the exit
scores were seeing from women their
likelihood to recommend and how much
they enjoyed the film was higher here
than almost any film weve had, Hollis
said. Its a great sign for what word of
mouth should be for the run, but, two, what
it means for how women think about these
movies being for them as much as men
might.
The next question will be whether the
result was strong enough to kick start an
Ant-Man 2. Though Ant-Man had a
rocky path to the screen, with director
Peyton Reed replacing Edgar Wright shortly
before
shooting
commenced,
its
CinemaScore from audiences is an A. It took

Paul Rudd stars in Ant-Man which topped the box office over the weekend.

Top 10 movies
1.Ant-Man, $58 million
($56.4 million international).
2.Minions, $50.2 million
($66.2 million international).
3.Trainwreck, $30.2 million.
4.Inside Out, $11.7 million
($21. 3 million international).
5.Jurassic World, $11.4 million
($12.3 million international).
6.Terminator Genisys, $5.4 million
($22.2 million international).
7.Magic Mike XXL, $4.5 million
($5.8 million international).
8.Gallows, $4 million
($2.1 million international).
9.Ted 2, $2.7 million
($7.5 million international).
10.Mr. Holmes, $2.5 million.

Store Closing

in $56.4 million abroad.


The opening was closest to 2008s The
Incredible Hulk ($55 million), the poorly
received Edward Norton edition that didnt
spawn further installments. Rudd is already
to appear as Ant-Man in Captain America:
Civil War.
I say this was a success, said Paul
Dergarabedian, Rentraks senior media analyst. This was never predestined to open
with $80 (million) or $100 million. Marvel
continues to evolve and surprised the audience. This was about a perfectly solid result
for a brand new property.
The $30.2 million opening for Schumers
big-screen debut, Trainwreck, which the
comedian also wrote, earned an estimated
$30. 2 million, making the R-rated
Universal release one of the biggest comedy successes this summer. Its also the second best opening for Judd Apatow as a director following Knocked Up.

experienced a very scary incident in


the car last week: a freeway collision.
Fortunately, contact was on the passengers side and I had no passenger there.
Murray, my sidekick who comes to work
with me, was on the oorboard in the back
seat, which is the safest spot he could have
had. I have a dog seat belt, an 18-inch strap
which clips between his collar and the seat
belt holder, and keep it in the front seat. If
he makes his way to the front, I buckle
him. This, I learned, is not the best idea
unless I disable the air bag and I denitely
dont want to be in the habit of enabling
and disabling that air bag every time I go
between a human and canine passenger.
The force from the passengers side air bag
could kill a dog seated there. For this reason, dogs should be belted in the back seat.
Or, placed securely in a crate. Both options
are innitely safer than allowing a dog to
surf the seats or perch at the windows
with two paws actually outside the vehicle.
While that is clear, this isnt: the same dog
who might snap at you for blowing in his
face will happily stick his entire head out
the window of a moving car. Experts have
their theories. First, not all dogs enjoy
sticking their head out of a car window. We
just see the ones who do. Many dogs are
terried and cower when the window is
cracked open just an inch. In those cases,
its often the outside sounds causing the
fear. Some dogs who react to having a person blow in their face do so because the
action is unexpected. Also, the person
blowing is at the dogs eye level and this
can feel threatening. Dogs who like the
wind in their face and fur might enjoy it for
the sensation or the smells.

BAN
Continued from page 1
Carole Setzer, a 35-year resident of the
990-condominium complex Woodlake
Association, said shes pleased San Mateo
officials are working to support those who
want a smoke-free home.
Setzer said smoke from nearly five neighbors frequently drifts into her condominium
and some may not even be aware theyre
being exposed as the smell dissipates.
Its been scientifically proven that you
cannot contain smoke in your condominium,
it gets out through all these cracks, through
plumbing, through electrical fixtures,
through vents, Setzer said. Scientists have
gone in to condominiums and asked people
are they bothered by smoke, and they say
no. But then later, they take measurements
and these people have an alarming amount of
smoke in their [homes].
Councilman David Lim said he was moved
by the experiences of residents like Setzer
and having lived in an apartment building
recently, came to understand the impacts of
secondhand smoke.
I am very excited about taking up this
ordinance, I actually think its long overdue
and the council has been a little remiss in
addressing this issue I think mainly because
everyone on the council lives in a singlefamily house and it wasnt until I rented an
apartment about two years ago when we were
doing a home remodel that this impact really
hit home, said Lim, who noted he frequently smelled smoke from a neighbor. Its a
health hazard, its a nuisance. You feel horrible as a parent, it affects the ability for you
to enjoy the quality of your life.
While city officials appear to be supportive of changes to San Mateos smoking ordinance, which was most recently amended in
2003, some remain concerned about how to
enforce such rules.
Police and park rangers would be responsible for enforcing the rules on public property; however, some are concerned about how
to respond to private property calls, according to a staff report.
Its one of those unknowns, we could get
everybody calling on their neighbor smoking, or we could get no calls. The challenge

of course would be staffing. If everybody


decided they wanted to call on their neighbor
it would create some staffing issues for us,
said police Lt. Rick Passanisi.
The City Council may consider having private property enforcement by landlords,
neighbors or homeowners associations a
method Foster City employed by specifying
in its ordinance that an aggravated person
may bring a civil action to compel compliance, according to the report.
I like the idea of having a dual layer of
enforcement, which will empower police and
code enforcement, but also give a remedy for
a private individual, Lim said. I think
theres a benefit to having the city enforce
the laws we create, Im not saying I want to
punt to citizens, but at least give them that
[option].
Lim noted he wants to consider going further to protect youth and the public by possibly considering means to deter more e-cigarette sellers from popping up in the city.
Recently hes noticed e-cigarette stores near
25th Avenue advertising through bright-colored street signs, which is particularly concerning as Hillsdale High School is nearby.
Setzer said with so many resources for people seeking to quit, she hopes a more restrictive ordinance will encourage people to stop
and, at a minimum, protect those who are
being conscientious about their health.
While a common argument against such
ordinances is that property owners should be
able to do what they want in the privacy of
their home, Setzer said ones financial
means shouldnt become an undue burden.
Furthermore, with the countys competitive
and pricey housing market, Setzer said its
not always feasible for one to relocate.
Just because someone can afford to own,
because that person has more money than
those who are renting, should a person who
has more money own the right to harm their
neighbors? To take away what is very necessary, health, for their frivolous habit of
smoking? Setzer said. Then because someone wants to protect their health, should that
person be punished by having to leave
because someone else is not protecting their
health or their neighbors health?
The City Council meets 7 p.m. Monday,
July 20 at City Hall, 330 W. 20th Av e., San
Mateo.

PLAN
Continued from page 1
The city has already implemented several reduction measures, such as installing
solar panels on city properties, but it still
needs to reduce about 7,615 metric tons
over the next five years and another
13,267 metric tons by 2025 to achieve a
20 percent reduction, according to the
plan.
Some new measures outlined in the plan
include encouraging personal energy audits
and efficiency upgrades, adopting an ordinance ensuring commercial buildings are
constructed by green standards, encouraging
a more robust urban tree canopy, incentivizing car or bicycle sharing, and more.
According to studies, residential energy
use accounts for about 16 percent of the
citys greenhouse gas emissions and commercial building energy contributes about
23 percent, according to studies cited in
the plan.
But similar to other municipalities in
the area, Foster Citys largest greenhouse
gas contributor comes from vehicles. State
highway transportation makes up 35 percent of its total emissions and local roads
making up another 21 percent, according
to the plan.
While in the midst of developing ways
to enhance roads for bicyclists and pedestrians, some officials feel theres only so
much the city can do as its directly
impacted by regional traffic.
Bordered by State Route 92 and Highway
101, the citys traffic problems are well
known by those who drive through Foster
City during peak commute hours.
Councilmen Herb Perez and Charlie
Bronitsky suggest creating a public transit
route, similar to Bay Area Rapid Transit,
from Hayward to San Mateo County would
be a significant improvement.
Still, such a system would be extremely
costly while taking decades to plan and
construct. Instead, the citys Climate
Action Plan should be viewed as a step in
the right direction, Perez said.
There is no one thing in that plan thats
going to have a marked impact on this.
And thats OK, because its just small
pieces of a bigger puzzle, Perez said. The

her. I think Andrea is a liar, and I know shes a liar because


I was there, he said under oath.
Cosby testified that in the 1970s, he received about
seven prescriptions for quaaludes from a Los Angeles doctor
who has since died. He acknowledged he obtained them with
the intention of giving them to young women he wanted to
have sex with.
He denied giving women the powerful sedatives without
their knowledge. He said he used quaaludes the same as a
person would say, Have a drink.
Constands lawyer, Dolores Troianai, asked Cosby about
his wifes knowledge of his affairs.
He said his wife, Camille, to whom he has been married
since 1964, learned about the Constand case and others in
which he was accused of wrongdoing. But he said he hid
cases from her, funneling hush money to women through
accounts that Mrs. Cosby would not see.
Bruce Castor, the suburban Philadelphia prosecutor who
declined to bring charges in the Constand case a decade ago,
told the AP earlier this month that if he is elected again he
will review the unsealed court documents to see if Cosby
committed perjury.
The AP generally does not identify people who say they
have been sexually assaulted unless they agree to have their
names published, as Constand has done.

accomplish.
Bohigian said she grew concerned
when the first shuttle route proposed
was 40 minutes in each direction
too inconvenient for a local employee
looking to grab a quick lunch or take a
trip to the park. Eventually, city staff
asked the chamber to create a new
route, which Bohigian said they were
able to narrow down to about 20 minutes one-way. Now, city staff is working with the TA to see if they can
extend the grant through June 2016,
according to a staff report.
Still, Bohigian said shes concerned
about having the chamber be responsible for marketing the proposal to local
businesses, as the city has not agreed

reality is, all of this can be done, but it


takes a conscious effort to remember what
youre doing. It takes a conscious effort by
builders to follow [Leadership in Energy
and Environmental Design] standards, it
takes stuff like solar panels on your roof.
Its really just a question of being environmentally responsible.
Community Development Director
Curtis Banks agreed regional agencies are
seeking to address traffic concerns over
which the city doesnt have control.
Instead, the Climate Action Plan provides
a navigable way for locals to contribute to
reducing emissions.
Its really focusing more on what Foster
City can control more internally so,
what can residents and the business community do, Banks said.
One of the most influential measures the
city is planning on implementing is energy efficiency audits. The city spent $1.4
million toward energy efficiency upgrades
ranging from installing solar panels to
replacing old fixtures with LED light
bulbs, Banks said.
Under the audit program, an outside
provider would visit property owners and
create a personalized climate action plan
based on an individuals needs and energy
uses, according to the plan that noted
implementing this measure could reduce
1,132 metric tons of emissions a year.
Bronitsky hopes the city will continue
to take its own measures by installing
solar panels on properties and is even taking the lead on the Peninsula Sunshares
Program a multi-city effort leveraging
economies of scales to assist residents
who want to go solar.
Bronitsky served as the council representative on a citizens group called the
Environmental Sustainability Task Force
an organization that promoted a variety
of efforts, many of which are included in
the Climate Action Plan, Banks said.
The public comment period for the draft
environmental impact report covering the
Climate Action Plan runs through Aug. 31
and will be heard by the Planning
Commission Aug. 20. Staff anticipates the
City Council will also review and host a
public hearing in September, Banks said.

to continue the service once the grant


expires.
There was no long-term commitment by the policy makers and most of
that quite frankly, was I think because
they thought the process was disjointed, Bohigian said.
Councilman Gary Pollard said it
appears the city, chamber and TA were
never fully on the same page when it
came to visions for how the shuttle
would work. Pollard and Perez said
theyd hoped to see local businesses
buy-in to the program, as it would benefit their employees.
With Illumina Inc. having a built-tosuit campus designed in Foster City
and many employers opting to provide
amenities on site to incentivize
employees staying at work, Pollard
wondered if the shuttle was truly feasible.
Bohigian said with companies like

successful mid-day shuttle program


needs to be well thought out.
This is disappointing to us because
really, what we wanted was to show
that the city had a commitment to the
initiative. By showing leadership
that the city was using grant money,
we believed in the long term the ability to engage businesses in sharing the
costs of those services, Bohigian
said. The chamber is going to move
forward with pulling employers
together to better understand their
needs and how we, the Chamber of
Commerce, can support their efforts in
the coming months. So were just
moving to plan B.
The Foster City Council will consider suspending the shuttle at its meeting beginning 6:30 p.m. Monday,

Francisco spanning down to the Palo
Alto, and many municipalities
between are attempting to capitalize
on a centrally located Caltrain station
and thriving downtown to woo companies looking to set up shop, said
Matteucci.
What is really driving the market is
downtown corridors around Caltrain,
he said. Companies are locating
themselves in and around downtown
areas.
He cited San Mateo and Redwood
City as local cities which have effectively leveraged their location and
assets to their advantage.
An average square foot of office
space in San Mateo costs $4.54, up 18
cents since the last quarter, with a
vacancy rate of roughly 6 percent,
according to the report.
In Redwood City, office space is less
expensive, as the average square foot
costs $4.17, but room is harder to
come by as there is roughly a 4 percent

way.
Improvement districts work to better
a citys commercial vitality through
an additional tax, to which a majority
of businesses in the boundaries must
agree, used to finance efforts such as
cleaning streets, capital improvements, marketing and a variety of
other measures.
The city is growing ripe for commercial investment, as officials begin to
examine the possibility for mixed-use
developments near the Millbrae
Caltrain and Bay Area Rapid Transit
stations, combined with preparing for
the influx of tourists who will flow to
the region for the Super Bowl when it
is played in Santa Clara in early 2016,
said Lee.
Due to the citys proximity to San
Francisco International Airport, and
the hub of connection between two
major rail lines connecting the Bay
Area, Lee said Millbrae is in position
to benefit greatly from the those visiting to watch the football championship game.
It will bring a lot of attention to
Millbrae, and a lot of foot traffic, he
said.

vacancy rate, according to the report.


Companies which have substantial
enough assets to rent or acquire the
limited office space downtown along
the Peninsula are prone to engaging in
unconventional methods to retain
their prime locations, said Matteucci.
Typically, as successful companies
grow beyond the limited square
footage available downtown, they will
look to relocate to larger, more spacious suburban office parks in remote
regions, he said.
But due to the increased emphasis on
maintaining a stake in a location easily accessible by public transportation,
some companies are showing a willingness to forgo the traditional
growth pattern, and instead splinter
their workforce into multiple separate,
smaller offices spread across downtowns, said Matteucci.
This phenomenon can lead to a
higher concentration of successful
businesses snapping up the most
lucrative properties, and leaving limited options left over for smaller
upstarts, he said.
As space in established regions
becomes increasingly harder to come

by, Matteucci said, some companies


are looking to branch out to new cities
in hopes of finding more available and
affordable rental units.
He cited Burlingame as one city
which is receiving more interest from
companies not able to set up shop in
some of the more expensive and tight
nearby markets, such as Foster City,
Redwood Shores, San Mateo and
Redwood City.
There are limited, prime commercial
real estate options in Burlingame, as
there are only eight buildings offering
roughly 100,000 square feet of available space, but the average rental price
of $3.15 per class A square foot is relatively affordable compared to the rest
of the county, according to the report.
Matteucci said he has enjoyed the
recent stretch of prosperity and sees
little opportunity that the market
might slow down in the near future.
Are we in this for a lot longer? I
sure hope so, he said. If we get
another 24 to 36 months, that is
great.

He noted city officials do not have


interest in running the business
improvement district, but fully support of the notion of its establishment
and would like to help it grow in
momentum.
Currently, the vision is only merely
in its initial planning stages, said Lee.
This is still really in the amorphous phase, and we are still just
exploring the avenues and possibilities to see how much support we can
gain, he said.
Local business and property owners
will continue to meet in coming days
and weeks as officials and advocates
look to drum up support for the district, said Lee.
Lee said the district is one of the
goals he has imagined for years, and
cited Burlingame, San Mateo and
Mountain View as local cities which
have similar, successful models.
Former mayor Gina Papan said she
too is in favor of gauging the interest
of the business community in perhaps
establishing the district, which
requires increased communication
between local business and property
owners.
We want to encourage more interaction between everyone for the overall
improvement of the business atmosphere in Millbrae, she said.
Papan said officials and local business owners have received presenta-

tions from members of an improvement district in Burlingame to glean a


deeper understanding of the merits of
the collective.
The path toward establishing the
district is not without hurdles though,
said Lee.
Some owners of businesses and
properties may be hesitant to support
the district, due to already feeling
overtaxed and general skepticism of
joining larger, umbrella organizations, said Lee.
It is very controversial, he said.
Everyone has to give money.
To begin an improvement district, a
consensus of local businesses must
support its establishment, which
would then require all businesses in the
region to pay toward the common
fund.
But despite the additional investment some may need to take on to get
the district off the ground, Lee said
there can be a great benefit to many
residents and businesses across
Millbrae.
This would bond our community
tighter, as well as create a positive
environment that would help stabilize
our bottom line, he said.

Is Surgery the Answer?


It is true that surgery may be the answer for certain types of back injuries.
When considering your options, ask yourself this question ...If there is a
solution to back pain that doesnt require surgery, is it worth exploring?

Before you consider surgery consider these points

The Solution: The DRT Method, (Disc Restoration Therapy)


The DRT Method is a 5 Step S.P.I.N.E. approach to healing & restoring
function to bulging and degenerative discs.
Spinal Decompression, Physiotherapy, Inter-Segmental Mobilization, Nutritional
Support, Exercise Rehabilitation.
The DRT Method allows for a much higher success rate by increasing hydration
and restoring health to your discs. This results in a more effective and lasting
solution to your pain. There are no side effects and no recovery time is required.
This gentle and relaxing treatment has proven to be effective... even when drugs,
epidurals, traditional chiropractic, physical therapy and surgery have failed....
Disc Restoration Therapy has shown dramatic results.

Who is a Candidate for Disc Restoration Therapy


Disc Restoration Therapy has been found to relieve the pain associated with disc
degeneration, herniated and bulging disc, facet syndrome and sciatica. It is our
opinion that patients should exhaust all non surgical/non-invasive treatments rst
before considering surgery.

Why Bay Area Disc Centers?


Dr. Thomas Ferrigno, DC and his team have vast experience in treating
patients suffering from moderate to severe disc disease.
Dr. Thomas Ferrigno, DC is Certied by and is also part of the Disc
Centers of America Team who are a national group of doctors that

Honorary Chairman, former Harvard professor, and probably the most
published doctor in the world on spinal decompression therapy.
