Officers killed by snipers

Officials: Five officers dead, six hurt in Dallas protest over recent fatal police shootings
By Terry Wallace
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

DALLAS Snipers opened fire

on police officers in the heart of
Dallas, killing five officers and
injuring six others during protests
over two recent fatal police shootings of black men, police said.
Three people are in custody and a
fourth suspect was exchanging

gunfire with authorities in a parking garage downtown, Dallas

Police Chief David Brown said
early Friday morning.
The suspect is not cooperating
and has told negotiators he
intends to hurt more law enforcement officials, the chief said.
The gunfire broke out around
8:45 p.m. Thursday while hundreds of people were gathered to

protest fatal police shootings this

week in Baton Rouge, Louisiana,
and suburban St. Paul, Minnesota.
Brown told reporters the snipers
fired ambush style upon the officers. Mayor Mike Rawlings said
one member of the public was
wounded in the gunfire.
Protests were also held in several other cities across the country

Schools hike builder fees

Developers must pay more to build in Burlingame
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

To offset the cost of new classrooms to

accommodate an expected influx of students
brought by new jobs and homes in
Burlingame, elementary school district officials again hiked fees charged to commercial
and residential developers.
The Burlingame Elementary School
District Board of Trustees unanimously
agreed during a meeting Wednesday, June 6,
to increase the development fee by 12 cents
to $3.48 per square foot of new home built,
and by 2 cents to 56 cents per square foot for
commercial or industrial building.
Though the rate hikes may seem marginal,
collectively the amount of money developers must pay the school district has jumped
by 39 cents per square foot for homes over
the past two years, and 9 cents per square
foot for commercial projects in that same
period of time. The decision brings the district in line with the neighboring Millbrae
Elementary School District, which also has
square footage fees of $3.48 for residential
and 56 cents for commercial.
Superintendent Maggie MacIsaac said she
believed the fees will help the district
address the cost of new students brought on
by development across the city in coming
years.
We are pursuing them to make sure we
have some funding available to help us in
terms of growth, she said.
School systems commonly charge development fees to builders in an attempt to offset the cost incurred by new students coming
to the district from families who move to a
new home or job.
Money collected by the district through
the fees typically pays toward construction
of new classrooms and school facilities
needed to house projected enrollment
growth.
The developer fees to be collected by the
Burlingame School District will be used for
the provision of additional and reconstructed school facilities, according to the
report. This will benefit the students to be
generated by new development by providing them with adequate educational facilities.
Per an agreement, the elementary school
district will keep 60 percent of the fees collected and the rest will be granted to the San
Mateo Union High School District.
In Burlingame, the school district expects
170 new homes will be built over the coming five years, according to the district
report, which is projected to boost enrollment by 44 students.
MacIsaac noted though the districts forecast of potential development will be profoundly influenced by whether city officials
decide to allow residential development
along Burlingames share of the Bayfront,

which has been addressed as part of ongoing
general plan update discussions.
The additional 35 elementary and nine
middle school students should boost total
enrollment to 3,393 students over the next
five years, according to the report.
Such a jump could make it difficult for the
district to accommodate all its students,
according to the report, as the existing campus capacity is 3,927 students, meaning
more classrooms and learning spaces will
be necessary.
Built into the capacity projections is the
expected opening of Hoover Elementary
School, said MacIsaac, which will reopen
when school starts again next month.
The district has identified a combined
$1.3 million worth of new school construction and modernization needed, especially
to serve older students, according to the
report, as there is projected to be nine middle schoolers more than the districts
expected capacity in coming years.
In an effort to address the expected influx
of students, the increased developer fees
will still not generate enough money for the
district to build the amounts of classrooms
soon needed, according to the report.
Historically, the average home size built
in Burlingame is 1,343 square feet, meaning
170 new homes would generate 228,310
square feet of residential space over the next
five years, according to the report.
To reach the $1.3 million needed to built
the necessary educational spaces, the district would need to charge $5.79 per square
feet of residential building, according to the
report.
The districts capacity challenge is compounded by the healthy economy in
Burlingame, according to the report which
shows the generation of new jobs leads to
new students as well.
The amount of students generated by construction of new workspace varies. For
example, office space typically leads to
more district students than does storage
space, and the report also cites the need for
commercial developers to increase contributions as well.
In all, considering the influx of new students expected to come from the new homes
and work buildings expected to be built in
the coming years, the district is justified in
attempting to offset the future cost incurred
by hiking the fees, according to the report.
It is found that a reasonable relationship
exists
between
residential,
commercial/industrial development and the
need for additional school facilities in the
Burlingame School District, according to
the report.

Two dead American crows

test positive for West Nile
By Keith Burbank
BAY CITY NEWS SERVICE

Two birds found in separate cities in San

Mateo County tested positive Wednesday for
the West Nile virus, San Mateo County
Mosquito and Vector Control District officials said Thursday.
The dead American crows were collected
from Atherton and Redwood City and are the
first indication of the virus in the county.
District officials will start collecting mosquitoes in the area where the birds were found
and have them tested for the virus. The results
will be available next week.
If the mosquitoes test positive, then the
district will spray to reduce the risk of transmission of the virus to residents, according
to Megan Caldwell, the districts public
health education and outreach officer.
People can get the virus by being bitten by
an infected mosquito but someone cannot
transmit the virus to another person.

Four other Bay Area counties Contra

Costa, Marin, Santa Clara and Solano as
well as Santa Cruz County have reported dead
birds that tested positive for the virus,
according to the states West Nile virus website at westnile.ca.gov.
San Mateo County vector control district
officials said the risk of residents getting the
disease is low, but they are encouraging residents to report any dead birds or dead squirrels
to the California West Nile virus hotline at
westnile.ca.gov or (877) WNV-BIRD (9682473). To reduce the risk of getting bitten by
a mosquito, district officials suggest draining all sources of standing water since mosquitoes lay their eggs in standing water.
They also suggest wearing clothing and
repellent when outside at dawn and dusk, the
times mosquitoes that transmit the virus are
most likely to bite, and to use repellent containing DEET, picaridin, oil of lemon eucalyptus or IR3535 to keep mosquitoes from
biting.

Trump courts,
jabs, anxious
Republicans
By Steve Peoples
and Erica Werner
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON A defiant
Donald Trump made it clear he
wont change his brash tone or
message as he courted anxious
Republican lawmakers Thursday,
blaming the media for stumbles
that continue to alarm GOP leaders
and energize Democrats with voting less than three months away.
The New York billionaire repeatedly called for unity in his second
Capitol Hill tour in three months,
but he also threatened would-be
party critics on a day that was
designed to rally anxious
Republicans
behind
him.
Deflecting questions about his
discipline in public comments,
Trump insisted his recent praise
for former Iraqi leader Saddam
Hussein was taken out of context
and ignored fresh concern about a
campaign tweet widely condemned
as anti-Semitic, according to
Republicans who attended closeddoor meetings.

Arizona Sen. Jeff Flake declined

to address reports that Trump
threatened to attack him politically during a testy exchange that
Sen. John McCain said everybody was talking about afterward.
Ill just leave it, Flake told
reporters. My position remains,
I want to support the nomination.
I really do. I just cant support him
given the things that hes said.
Sen. Mark Kirk of Illinois, who
wasnt in Thursdays meeting,
fired back at Trump, who reportedly called him a loser during the
private gathering.
We havent seen a personality
like his too much in the Midwest.
Eastern, privileged, wealthy
bully, said Kirk, who faces a
tough re-election contest and has
declined to endorse Trump.
There was a more cooperative
tone inside Trumps meeting with
House Republicans, even if skeptical lawmakers didnt necessarily
hear what they were hoping for.
There was no talk of pivoting.
There was no talk of changing his
style or anything like that, said

Trumps unwillingness to moderate his tone follows repeated
promises from campaign officials
that he would do just that as he
shifts toward the general election.

No double standard for Clinton, FBI director tells GOP

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Under an
onslaught of Republican criticism,
FBI Director James Comey vigorously defended the governments
decision not to prosecute Hillary
Clinton over her private email
setup, rejecting angry accusations
that the Democratic presidential
candidate was given special treatment.
To criminally charge Clinton
based on the facts his agencys
yearlong probe had found would
have been unwarranted and mere
celebrity hunting, Comey told a
congressional investigative committee Thursday.
In nearly five hours of testimony,
he sought to explain the Justice

De p a r t m e n t s
decision ending
an investigation
that has dogged
Clintons presidential
campaign and raised
fresh questions
among voters
James Comey about her trustworthiness.
Republicans hard, skeptical
questioning made it clear that settling the legal issue will not end the
matter as a political issue as
Clinton
campaigns
against
Republican Donald Trump, who
scornfully refers to her as Crooked
Hillary.
Republicans on the panel, voices
sometimes raised in apparent frus-

tration and irritation, said they

were mystified
by the decision
not to prosecute
because they felt
that Comey, in a
remarkably
detailed and critHillary Clinton ical public statement
on
Tuesday, had laid out a sufficient
basis for charges.
I totally get peoples questions, he said, but the FBI was
obliged to follow the law.
Comey said investigators found
no evidence that Clinton or her
aides intended to break the law,
even though they mishandled classified information.

Sailors medical
background questioned
after training death
SAN DIEGO The drowning of
a sailor who was repeatedly pushed
underwater by an instructor during
NavySEAL basic training raises a
host of questions, beginning perhaps with this: Why would a highly elite unit made up of some of the
toughest, fittest warriors ever to
wear a uniform take someone with
an enlarged heart and maybe asthma or allergies?
An enlarged heart would not have
shown up in the medical exams
that sailors are routinely subjected
to before they are accepted for
SEAL basic training, said Dr. Kirk
Parsley, a former SEAL who also
served as the Navy doctor for West
Coast SEALs until 2013.

Protests and calls for justice

after police shooting, video
By Kyle Potter
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

FALCON HEIGHTS, Minn. A

woman who watched as a police
officer fatally shot her boyfriend
during a traffic stop streamed the
gruesome aftermath of the slaying
live on Facebook, telling a worldwide audience that her companion
had been shot for no apparent reason while reaching for his wallet.
Within hours, the Minnesota
governor was pressing for the
Justice Department to open its second investigation of the week into
the death of a black man at the
hands of police.
Nobody should be shot and
killed in Minnesota for a tail light
being out of function, Democrat
Mark Dayton said. Would this
have happened if those passengers
would have been white? I dont
think it would have.
It was the second fatal police
shooting in as many days. A black
37-year-old man was killed
Tuesday by officers in Baton
Rouge,
Louisiana.
Alton
Sterlings death was caught on
video.
The latest death happened late
Wednesday in the St. Paul suburb
of Falcon Heights, a mostly white
community of 5,000 people that is
also home to Minnesotas annual
state fair and part of the massive
University of Minnesota campus.
In the video, Diamond Reynolds
describes being pulled over for a
busted tail light and says her
boyfriend had told the officer he
was carrying a gun for which he
was licensed.

As word of the shooting spread,

relatives of the man joined scores
of people who gathered at the
scene and outside the hospital
where he died. They identified him
as Philando Castile of St. Paul, a
well-liked 32-year-old cafeteria
supervisor at a Montessori school.
Reynolds said Thursday that he
was killed even though he complied with the officers instructions. She told reporters that
Castile did nothing but what the
police officer asked of us, which
was to put your hands in the air and
get your license and registration.
The Department of Justice
announced that it would monitor
the
investigation
by
the
Minnesota Bureau of Criminal
Apprehension. The governor said
he and other state officials would
seek more direct involvement.
Speaking to CNN, Castiles
mother said that she suspected she
would never learn the whole truth
about her sons death.
I think he was just black in the
wrong place, Valerie Castile said
Thursday, adding that she had
stressed to her children that they
must do what authorities tell them
to do to survive.
I always told them, whatever
you do when you get stopped by
police, comply, comply, comply.
Speaking at a vigil Thursday
evening outside the school where
Philando Castile worked, Valerie
Castile called her son an angel.
She said she never thought she
would lose him.
This has to cease. This has to
stop, right now, she told the
crowd.

Police shootings of black men

stir fears, anger among blacks
By Russell Contreras
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. One

black man is shot dead by police
while selling CDs outside of a
convenience store in Louisiana. A
day later, another is fatally shot
by an officer in Minnesota during
a traffic stop over a tail light. The
two killings captured on video
and broadcast across the world
have
left
many
AfricanAmericans seething and disconsolate, and wondering if they ever
will see an end to the drumbeat of
minority death at the hand of law
enforcement in the United States.

After shootings, Obama says police must root out bias

By Josh Lederman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON President Barack Obama

called on American law enforcement to root
out bias in its ranks and said all Americans
should be troubled by frequent police shootings of blacks and Hispanics, insisting that
fatal incidents in Minnesota and Louisiana
are not isolated.
Adding his voice to a growing public outcry, Obama said the shootings were symptoms of a broader set of racial disparities in
the justice system that arent being fixed
quickly enough.
He ticked through a list of statistics he said
showed concerns about bias are real: AfricanAmericans being shot by police or arrested at
more than twice the rate of white Americans.
When incidents like this occur, theres a
big chunk of our fellow citizenry that feels as
if its because of the color of their skin, they
are not being treated the same, Obama said.
And that hurts. And that should trouble all of
us.
Obamas diagnosis of the problem reflected
a growing sense of frustration and willingness to speak out publicly about police
killings despite the risk of making law
enforcement officers feel under attack.
The president spoke in a hastily arranged

two white officers outside a convenience

store in a predominantly black neighborhood. The shooting was caught on tape and
went viral online.
The next day in Minnesota, 32-year-old
Philando Castile was shot to death during a
traffic stop. His girlfriend posted video of the
aftermath live on Facebook, saying he had
been shot for no apparent reason while
reaching for his wallet, as an officer had
asked.
Though the White House has sought to
avoid commenting on specific cases before
all facts are known, in this case Obama
weighed in while both shootings are still
being investigated, including a civil rights
probe by the U.S. Justice Department into
the Louisiana incident.
Similar statements about other shootings
have stoked tensions with law enforcement,
including with FBI Director James Comey,
who has suggested the intense public focus
on police officers conduct, fueled by caughton-camera moments, may be inhibiting offiREUTERS
cers as they try to protect their communities.

Obama heads to Europe amid British referendums aftershocks

By Kathleen Hennessey
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON President Barack

Obama embarked Thursday on a five-day,
two-country mission to buck up a beleaguered Europe and brush back an aggressive Moscow on what is expected to be his
last presidential visit to the continent.
Obama departed mid-morning on his way
to a summit of NATO allies in Warsaw,
before moving on to Seville and Madrid for
his first presidential visit to Spain. In

both corners of the continent, hell be surrounded by leaders still reeling from
Britains decision to pull out of the
European Union and sorting through
uncertainty about the future of the decadesold experiment in international cooperation.
The White House says Obama will arrive
with words of reassurance that the departure whenever it occurs wont disrupt
the decades-old trans-Atlantic ties that
bind. Hell emphasize that Britains exit,
which does not affect its membership in

Weekly Camps Run through 8/29, Mon.-Fri.

NATO, only makes the 28-member military

alliance more essential and its cooperation
with the European Union more important.
And amid leaders anxiety about whether
his possible successor, Republican Donald
Trump, would retrench from Europe, Obama
will make the case for stronger alliances
and the benefits of globalization.
He feels like all leaders in Europe and in
the United States including himself
have a responsibility in the face of all
these challenges to the trans-Atlantic
order that weve built to make the case on

behalf of the values that the United States

and Europe have stood for and the benefits
to our countries, said Ben Rhodes,
Obamas deputy national security adviser.
The presidents arrival early Friday will
be his first chance to deliver that message
in person, both to the European leaders
tasked with smoothly navigating the
tricky divorce and British Prime Minister
David Cameron, whom Obama personally
tried but failed to save from the wave of
anti-European sentiment that fueled the
vote.

U.K. to get second female PM: May,

Leadsom in Conservative runoff
By Jill Lawless
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LONDON Britain is on course

to get its second female prime
minister, after Conservative lawmakers chose Home Secretary
Theresa May and Energy Minister
Andrea Leadsom on Thursday to
fight a runoff contest for leadership of the countrys governing
party.
The race pits a stalwart of the
center-right government May
against a rising star of the
partys right. The winner will
become the first woman to lead
Britain since Margaret Thatcher,
who governed from 1979 to 1990,
transforming the country with her
staunchly free-market policies.
May received 199 votes in a ballot of Conservative members of
Parliament,
while
Leadsom
received 84. Justice Secretary
Michael Gove got 46 votes and
was eliminated from the race.

The winner will replace Prime

May, the governments formidable interior minister, is the book-

Cuba: U.S. travelers to island up 84 pct in first half of 2016

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

HAVANA The number of

American travelers to Cuba rose 84
percent for the first half of the year
compared with the same JanuaryJune period in 2015, authorities
said Thursday.
Cuban state news agency Prensa
Latina reported that Tourism
Minister
Manuel
Marrero

announced the figure to members

of parliament, reflecting a continuing surge in U.S. interest in the
island amid a broader diplomatic
thaw between the Cold War foes
that began in late 2014.
The total number of U.S. visitors
was not made public, though for all
of last year, nearly 160,000 leisure
travelers flew to Cuba. The figures
do not include the hundreds of

thousands of Cuban-Americans
who travel to the island each year
on family visits.
As part of the push to normalize
relations, U.S. President Barack
Obama has loosened people-topeople cultural and educational
visits to Cuba, and Americans are
now able to plan their own trips
and self-certify that they comply
with U.S. regulations.

The legacy of Elie Wiesel

The Charleston Daily Mail

t was a harrowing tragedy that

words cant even begin to
describe.
Yet through Elie Wiesels writing
and advocacy, generations of readers
and historians have a better
though still incomplete understanding of the Holocaust.
Wiesel, who recounted the horrors
of the Holocaust in his acclaimed
memoir Night and went on to win
the Nobel Peace Prize, died Saturday
at age 87.
In the aftermath of the Germans
systematic massacre of Jews, no
voice had emerged to drive home the
enormity of what had happened and
how it had changed mankinds conception of itself and of God, reads
his New York Times obituary. For
almost two decades, the traumatized
survivors and American Jews,
guilt-ridden that they had not done
more to rescue their brethren

Other voices
seemed frozen in silence.
But by the sheer force of his personality and his gift for the haunting
phrase, Mr. Wiesel, who had been
liberated from Buchenwald as a 16year-old with the indelible tattoo A7713 on his arm, gradually exhumed
the Holocaust from the burial ground
of the history books.
At age 15, in 1944, Wiesel and his
family were sent to Auschwitz in
Poland. He was ultimately freed a
year later from Buchenwald.
If I survived, it must be for some
reason, Wiesel said in 1981. I must
do something with my life. It is too
serious to play games with anymore,
because in my place, someone else
could have been saved. And so I
speak for that person. On the other
hand, I know I cannot.
His advocacy wasnt limited to just

the Jewish people. Wiesel also stood

up for Soviet Jews, Nicaraguas
Miskito Indians, Ethiopian-born
Israeli youth, Argentinas
Disappeared, Cambodian refugees,
the Kurds, and victims of famine and
genocide in Africa, apartheid in
South Africa and war in the former
Yugoslavia, according to CNN.
Wiesel was a journalist and a professor. He used those platforms to
educate his audiences about the horrors of the Holocaust and the importance of speaking out.
Wiesel is a messenger to
mankind, the Nobel citation said.
His message is one of peace, atonement and human dignity. His belief
that the forces fighting evil in the
world can be victorious is a hard-won
belief.
Wiesel may have departed this
Earth, but he still has much to teach
us. The message and legacy he left
behind must carry on.

Lyft for seniors
Editor,
I am writing to express my appreciation for the excellent article written by Samantha Weigel on our
LYFT senior transportation pilot
project (Seniors now able to grab a
Lyft in the July 5 edition of the
Daily Journal).
I do want to point out that 100
percent of the participants have
been and will be Sequoia Healthcare
District residents. Ms. Weigel refers
to one of our board members as a
taxpayer advocate. I am proud that
all five of our board members are
taxpayer advocates and are equally
concerned about the tax dollars
being properly spent.

Millbrae City Council for finally
getting the hint to encourage the

clean up the streets and sidewalks,
for the summer months. What

that means Millbrae can go back to

the merchants that refuse to clean up

the sidewalks and their property?
Last year, residents were asked to
man the brooms and sweep up the
filth and what did that do? In all my
walks along Broadway, I have witnessed only one lady who sweeps
the front of the business. Merchants
were offered trash cans and ashtrays
to place near their doorways to deter
patrons from littering the sidewalks.
Trash cans are good but I guess the
councilmembers do not know there
is a state law forbidding smoking
within 25 feet of and open door or
window? Maybe the ashtrays should
be moved the proper distance so the
business employees who now smoke
in their doorways, wont be encouraged to violate the law. Maybe
Millbrae could have code enforcement start to enforce the litter and
smoking laws that are in place.
Thanks to whomever was responsible for the power washing of the
sidewalk in front of Starbucks. It
could have been done a lot better but
at least someone tried to make an
improvement.

Tanforan Memorial
Editor,
Why a memorial?
American citizens were denied
their civil rights and due process,
lost their homes and businesses,
were summarily relocated to horse
stalls at a local race track and subsequently interred in makeshift camps
in the California desert, Arizona and
Utah. The camps were hardly fit for
human habitation, all due to
Executive Order 9066 in February of
1942. When such civil rights are
denied, there is a need to be reminded that responsible citizens must
always speak out whenever the good
people around us are stereotyped,
marginalized and deprived of their
basic human dignity.

Investment in sustainability,
infrastructure and safety
By Joe Goethals

ecently, the San Mateo City Council passed the

largest two-year budget for any city in San
Mateo County history at just under $1 billion
more than $300 million operating expenses and
$670 million in capital improvement projects. The
budget restores funding to many departments that were
hard hit by the Great Recession. It strengthens the
Police Department to ensure the highest level of service
and professionalism and commits to proactive community policing to keep crime at record lows. The budget
includes once in a generation investment in our infrastructure newly
paved roads eliminating all our failed
streets, levees to protect us from sea
level rise and flooding and a state-ofthe-art wastewater treatment plant that
will serve a growing population. The
wastewater treatment plant will capture the biogas to be used as a fuel for
the citys fleet of vehicles providing
over 500 gallons of fuel per day, and generate 13 million gallons of clean water every day. All of this while
building our reserves for a rainy day to their largest levels ever.
In addition to the wastewater treatment plant, the city
of San Mateo is participating in sustainability projects
including the countywide effort to provide clean renewable electricity provided by the new agency Peninsula
Clean Energy, the greatest regional effort to reduce
greenhouse gases in local history. We are mandating
solar projects with all new buildings. We have an amazing new bike share program. Sustainability to address
climate change is the opportunity of our generation and
the city and county of San Mateo have seized the day. In
so doing, we are both creating efficiencies and reducing
greenhouse gas emissions but also creating local economic opportunities.
The San Mateo Department of Public Works recently
completed a series of a dozen neighborhood forums to
address traffic and will be reporting back possible solutions to the City Council later this year. As we are growing, we will continue to work to ensure that the character of our community is protected and that mobility
remains a focus. Regional efforts to support Caltrain
and SamTrans capacity and ridership are critical to the
health of our community and our economy.
We have spent much of the year debating tenant protections with little to show for it, but the housing crisis
requires increased supply for our workforce and for lowincome families. San Mateo is not waiting. We have the
opportunity to build workforce housing downtown on
two lots formerly owned by the Redevelopment Agency
and we are moving forward on an affordable housing
project in Bay Meadows. The council will vote on a
commercial linkage fee next month to help raise revenue for such critical housing investments.
As part of this overall effort to address affordability,
the city of San Mateo is leading the county to raise the
minimum wage and support a living wage for our
employees and prevailing wages for those working in
the trades. All of these efforts are focused on ensuring
that the San Mateo of the future will continue to be
vibrant and welcoming with modern and reliable infrastructure.
Change has been a constant for the Peninsula and that
has most often been a good thing. Those of us who grew
up in San Mateo that seems distant but familiar, know
that our hometown is now an international destination.
Many people want to live and work here in our city by
the Bay. We are the beneficiaries of past city councils
who invested in our downtown with the cinema and
restaurants that have helped to create a lively and
engaging environment. New investments in our Central
Park will benefit the next generation with new opportunities for recreation and access to green spaces as will
our new parks, bike trails and community garden in the
Bay Meadows development.
In addition, we live in a beautiful and safe city with
amazing opportunities to work for companies that are
changing the world in technology, biology and finance.
All of these changes and developments are outgrowths
of a robust economy and an attractive landscape for
investment. Our city and county leaders are working to
ensure that our communities benefit from this growth
and mitigate the challenges. There remains much work
to do but the city of San Mateo is well positioned to
leverage this moment to benefit our current residents
and to ensure that we have a vital, diverse and wellserved community for generations to come.
Joe Goethals is the may or of San Mateo.

Stocks end mixed as crude oil dives

By Marley Jay

DOW JONES INDUSTRIALS

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK U. S. stocks

swerved between gains and losses
Thursday and wound up with a muddled finish as the price of oil
plunged. Investors also sold utility and phone company stocks.
They have favored those companies all year, especially in the
wake of Britains vote to leave the
European Union last month.
Stocks started higher, building
on gains from the previous day.
But they fell after a government
report that showed oil stockpiles
did not shrink as much as
investors had hoped. Investors
sold government bonds after buying them at a rapid clip earlier this
week, and precious metals prices
also slid. Energy companies were
hammered as the price of oil
dropped almost 5 percent.
Nate Thooft, head of global
asset allocation for Manulife
Asset Management, noted that

U.S. gives tentative OK to flights to Cuba from 10 cities

By Joan Lowy
and Scott Mayerowitz
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON The U.S. government on Thursday tentatively

approved scheduled commercial
airline service to Havana from 10
American cities, further bridging
the gulf between countries as close
as an hour flight but long kept at a
greater distance by the Cold War.
The decision is another long
stride in President Barack Obamas
effort to normalize U.S.-Cuba relations.
Reopening travel relations

with Cuba is about more than just

restoring the freedom to travel
there for all Americans its about
opening Cuba to new ideas, new
values and improved human rights
that our 50-year-old policy of isolation could not achieve, said
Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Ill.
But Rep. Jeff Duncan, R-S.C.,
chairman of the House Committee
on Foreign Affairs Subcommittee
on the Western Hemisphere,
expressed doubts about the Cuban
governments ability to prevent
attacks by militants, saying the
Obama administration is in a mad
rush to sign agreements before

ensuring basic safeguards of security.

Eight U.S. airlines are expected
to begin round-trip service as early
as this fall between the U.S. and
the Cuban capital, Transportation
Secretary Anthony Foxx said.
The U.S. cities are Atlanta;
Charlotte,
North
Carolina;
Houston; Los Angeles; Newark,
New Jersey; New York; and four in
Florida Miami, Fort Lauderdale,
Orlando and Tampa. Of the 20 daily
nonstop flights allowed to
Havana, 14 are from Florida, home
to the largest population of
Cuban-Americans.

The airlines are Alaska,

American,
Delta,
Frontier,
JetBlue, Southwest, Spirit and
United.
A year and a half ago, Obama
announced with Cuba President
Raul Castro that it was time for the
longtime adversaries to begin a
new journey. Washington has
since reopened the U.S. Embassy
in Havana and taken other steps to
bolster ties.
Conservatives in Congress have
been unwilling to lift the trade
embargo of Cuba, which includes a
travel ban. That means most
Americans still cannot legally

visit Cuba. But the administration

has eased rules to the point where
travelers are now free to design
their own people-to-people cultural exchange tours with little
oversight. Cuban-Americans have
been able to travel to Cuba without
restriction since 2009.
Airlines still need to record
and keep for five years the official reason why someone travels to
Cuba, so reservation systems have
been revamped to allow passengers
to select one of the 12 permitted
categories. They include family
visits, official business and educational or religious activities.

Volkswagen agrees to pay

state $86M more in scandal
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO California would get

an additional $86 million from Volkswagen
in a deal over civil penalties stemming from
the companys emissions cheating scandal.

Volkswagen asked a judge Thursday to
approve the settlement. The money would
be on top of more than a billion dollars that

AAA auto club says

not all gasoline is the same
Many motorists are clogging their cars
engine by not using gasoline with enough
added detergents.
Thats the conclusion of a study released
Thursday by the AAA auto club.
Federal rules in place since 1996 require
all gasoline to have some engine-cleaning
additives, but many major brands have extra
detergents. AAA said tests it commissioned
from an independent lab found that lesser
gasolines left 19 times more deposits on
engine intake valves than so-called top-tier
fuels after the equivalent of 4,000 miles of

and
environmental
mitigation
in
California.
That figure was part of a $14.7 billion settlement announced last week that includes
compensation for the majority of affected
Volkswagen vehicle owners. Volkswagen is
still facing billions more in fines and penalties as well as possible criminal charges.
The automaker has acknowledged that
vehicles were programmed to turn on emissions controls during government lab tests
and turn them off while on the road.

Business brief
driving.
AAA said carbon deposits reduce a cars
mileage, increase emissions and hurt performance, especially on newer cars.
The auto club said gasolines with extra
detergents cost an average of 3 cents per
gallon more. And that could be their undoing.
Three-fourths of consumers surveyed by
AAA buy their gas based on price or the
service stations location. Only 1 in 8
picked a brand because it has extra detergents.

Fedronic to run in Olympics

The Carlmont and Stanford grad will run the 800 for France in Rio
By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

RUNA.ORG

Justine Fedronic, a 2009 Carlmont graduate,

will compete for France in the 800 in the Rio
Olympics next month.

There are two things that define Justine

Fedronic, the former Carlmont and Stanford
runner: speed and injuries.
The speed has always been there for the 800meter specialist and this year, for the first time
in a while, she has avoided the injury bug.
Combined, they helped Fedronic accomplish a
life-long dream: competing in the 2016 Rio
Olympics.
Im overjoyed I got to live this dream,
Fedronic said via FaceTime in Amsterdam. Its
still sinking in. I dont think Ive completely
understood it yet. Its something Ive been

working toward my entire career.

There is still work to be done. Im not
going just to go.
There is just one twist to this story.
Fedronic, 25, will be representing France
when she arrives in Brazil in just over a
month. Fedronic was born in Germany to a
French father and Hungarian mother. They
lived in Paris for a few years before the family
moved to Belmont while Fedronic was in elementary school, where she starred for the
Carlmont cross country and track teams before
graduating in 2009. Her abilities earned her a
scholarship to Stanford and, after graduation,
she has run professionally for the last two
years.

Fedronics decision to compete for France

was no statement against the United States.
The truth is, she held French and Hungarian citizenship before recently becoming a U.S. citizen so she can stay and train domestically. She
recently began training with Beast Track Club
in Seattle.
When I graduated from college, I was not an
American citizen. In fact, I did get my (U.S.)
citizenship this year so I could stay in the
country, Fedronic said. To be eligible for
national team selection in Europe, you run in a
club system. I knew I wanted to keep competing, so I got licensed (to train with a club).

the results of a test of Jones backup sample
later Thursday, although they have little
hope the result will change.
If the positive test is confirmed, Jones
could face a multiyear suspension. Jones

Hill, As bullpen shuts down Astros

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

HOUSTON Yonder Alonso doubled and

drove in two runs and Rich Hill tied a season-high with 10 strikeouts in six solid
innings to give the Oakland Athletics a 3-1
victory over the Houston Astros on
Thursday night.
Hill (9-3) allowed three hits and one run to
extend his winning streak to six games in
his second start since coming off the disabled list on Saturday. Ryan Madson pitched
a perfect ninth for his 17th save.
The Athletics trailed by one in the second
when Danny Valencia and Khris Davis singled before Stephen Vogt drew a walk to load
the bases with no outs. The Athletics tied it
when Marcus Semien grounded into a double
play that allowed Valencia to score.
Alonso followed with his double to put
Oakland up 2-1. He gave the Athletics an
insurance run with an ineld RBI single
with two outs in the ninth.
Houstons Doug Fister (8-6) yielded three

with a leadoff triple that
landed on Tals Hill in

took a 1-0 lead when he
scored on a groundout by

Marwin Gonzalez.
Luis Valbuena singled with one out in the
second before Hill settled in, retiring the
next 10. Houston didnt have another
baserunner until a single by Jake Marisnick
with two outs in the fth inning. Hill struck
out Jason Castro to end that inning before
striking out three with two walks in the
sixth to end his night.
Josh Reddick reached on an error by
shortstop Carlos Correa to start the ninth
before Houston intentionally walked Vogt

with two outs. Semien drew a walk after that

to load the bases before Alonsos y ball
dropped in front of Correa to allow Reddick
to score.
Coco Crisp was ejected after tossing his
bat in the direction of home plate umpire
D.J. Reyburn after striking out for the third
out of the fth inning. Crisp went 0 for 3 to
snap a 12-game hitting streak, which was
the longest active streak in the majors.

D-backs a major disappointment heading into break

He is 2-9 with a 7.14 ERA. Miller went on
the disabled list and worked in the minors to
find his form. After some progress, Miller had
another rough night Wednesday in a 13-6
home loss to San Diego. After blanking the
Padres for three innings, he gave up five runs
in the fourth when Arizona had a 4-0 lead.
This is an organizational question, Hale
said after the game. How are we going to get
him better.
Besides Greinke, the entire rotation has
been underwhelming.
Patrick Corbin, expected to be a standout
No. 3 pitcher, is 4-6 with a 4.90 ERA.
Archie Bradley, taking the place of injured
starter Rubby De La Rosa, is 3-4 with a 4.81
ERA.
Robbie Ray is 4-7 with a 3.78 ERA.
Injuries to outfielders A.J. Pollock and
David Peralta have hurt, but La Russa said
every team has to deal with injuries.
You play with what you have, he said. We
have good depth on this team and thats one
reason were disappointed our record isnt better, especially at home.

Mets Harvey might need surgery

for thoracic outlet syndrome
NEW YORK Matt Harvey has symptoms
consistent with thoracic outlet syndrome, and
the struggling New York Mets star could be facing season-ending surgery to treat a serious
condition that has jeopardized the career of
other major league pitchers.
General manager Sandy Alderson announced
the diagnosis Thursday after Harvey was examined in St. Louis by a specialist, Dr. Robert
Thompson. Alderson said a decision on surgery
is likely to come in the next few days before the
All-Star break.
Thoracic outlet syndrome is a condition
caused by the compression of nerves, blood
vessels or both in the area between the neck and
armpit. After his start Monday, the 27-year-old
Harvey complained of some common symptoms, which include numbness in fingers and
shoulder discomfort.
The former ace was placed on the 15-day disabled list Wednesday, retroactive to Tuesday.
Another temporary treatment option is a
nerve block that might help Harvey return to
the mound fairly quickly, but surgery is probably inevitable at some point and the operation
usually requires a four-month recovery period.

PHOENIX The Arizona Diamondbacks

will enter the All-Star break a major disappointment.
A team that many picked to contend in the
NL West is mired in a tie with San Diego for
last place in the division. At 38-49, the
Diamondbacks are 16 games behind firstplace San Francisco.
Most puzzling is the discrepancy between
Arizonas record on the road (23-17) and its
dismal performance at home (15-32). In the
National League, only Atlanta has a worse
home record.
Nobody in the organization seems to have a
reason for the home woes.
If we had the answer, manager Chip Hale
said, it wouldnt be happening.
The players are stumped. too
Weve all been trying to figure it out,
reliever Tyler Clippard said. I was asking
some of the guys that have been here in the
past Whats the deal with playing here or
being here? and nobody really knows. Its

very much a coincidental-type situation. It is

what it is. I dont know.
Despite the record, the person in charge of
the team chief baseball officer Tony La
Russa remains supportive of Hale and his
coaching staff.
Theyre a competent, talented group, La
Russa said.
He feels the same about the roster.
No matter what the record is, La Russa
said, we like our potential, we like our talent.
The Diamondbacks surprised the baseball
world by signing Zack Greinke to a six-year,
$206.5 million contract. And they traded outfielder Ender Inciarte and two of their top
prospects to Atlanta for Shelby Miller, penciling him in as the No. 2 starter.
After a shaky start, Greinke has been the
pitcher he was supposed to be, winning seven
consecutive starts with a 1.98 ERA in that
span. Hes 10-3 with a 3.62 ERA overall but
goes into the All-Star break on the 15-day disabled list with a strained left oblique.
Miller, though, has been a disaster.

Greizmann leads France into Euro 2016 final

By James Ellingworth
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MARSEILLE, France France is heading

back to soccers elite, and Antoine
Griezmann is the man leading the way.
Griezmann scored both goals to give
France a 2-0 win over world champion
Germany on Thursday and a place in the
European Championship final against
Portugal.
It was a victory built as much on German
errors as it was on Griezmanns skill, with a
handball in the box and a poor defensive
pass paving the way for his goals.
But that didnt matter to the fans who
made Marseilles Stade Velodrome ring with
the sound of the Marseillaise, Frances
national anthem. Their team won this tournament in 2000, two years after lifting the
World Cup, but it hasnt had a trophy since
then.
Developed as a player in Spain,
Griezmann has been the star of the show for
France, leading a high-scoring team with
six goals, twice as many as any other player in the tournament.
I think theres a lot of happiness around
France tonight, said coach Didier
Deschamps, whose team faces Cristiano
Ronaldos Portugal on Sunday at the Stade
de France.
This team has everything it needs to be
loved, Im very proud... Its fabulous to be
in the final.
Griezmann, who could have completed a
hat trick in the 86th minute but shot

straight at goalkeeper Manuel Neuer, was

already looking ahead.
Were very happy, he said. We have to
keep our feet on the ground. We still have a
match to go.
For Germany, defeat cost it the chance to
add the European title to the World Cup it
won in 2014.
It had gone 50 years unbeaten against
host nations at major tournaments, dating
back to its loss to England in the 1966
World Cup final and encompassing a famous
7-1 humbling of Brazil in the 2014 World
Cup semifinals.
While a repeat of the Brazil rout was never
on the cards, Germany could have scored
more than once as it dominated the first
half. But it was denied by poor shooting
from Thomas Mueller, who ended his tournament scoreless, and a save by Hugo Lloris
to block Emre Cans bouncing shot.
France took the lead from the penalty
spot in first half stoppage time after
Bastian Schweinsteiger handled the ball in
an aerial challenge with Patrice Evra.
Griezmann stepped up to score, striking
the penalty hard to Neuers right.
I really wanted to take a penalty in a big
match like that. I was very composed, I didnt think twice, Griezmann said.
It was the second time in as many games
that Germany had given away a spot-kick
for handball. Jerome Boateng blocked the
ball with an arm above his head in the quarterfinal against Italy.
Its just bad luck, just an unlucky
action, Germany coach Joachim Loew said

of the penalty. In a challenge, when youre
jumping, there are movements that you
cant really control.
Trailing in a match for the first time in the
tournament, Germany could not recover its
previous dominance after halftime. It then
had to cope with losing key defender
Boateng, who picked up an ankle injury
after an hour.
The German defense had not conceded
from open play all tournament, but it fell

apart for Griezmanns second goal in the

72nd minute. A sluggish pass by Benedikt
Hoewedes to right back Joshua Kimmich
was cut out by Paul Pogba and Neuer could
only palm away the midfielders cross to
Griezmann, who finished with ease.
Germany responded well and could have
pulled one back when Kimmich hit the post,
before Julian Draxler sent a free-kick narrowly wide and Hoewedes headed over.
We had chances to come back, Neuer
said. We played a good European
Championship and its very bitter to go
out.
Loew insisted his team had played better
than France but had been denied by bad
luck, including the injuries and suspensions that hit four key players - Boateng, as
well as defender Mats Hummels, midfielder
Sami Khedira and forward Mario Gomez,
with the latter three missing the game.
Loew, who is under contract until the
2018 World Cup, said he was not sure of his
future.
France, while not always reassuring in
defense, came through victorious in its first
game of the tournament against genuinely
top-class opposition.
After the final whistle, Frances jubilant
players celebrated with the fans by performing the Huh chant made famous at the
tournament by Iceland.
Across France and in the French team, the
attention was firmly on the diminutive
Griezmann after another decisive performance. Hes our little man that gives us that
bit extra, teammate Olivier Giroud said.

Kerber prevents all-Williams Wimbledon final

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LONDON Instead of the ninth allWilliams final at a Grand Slam tournament,

there will be a rematch of another sort to
determine the title at Wimbledon.
And so as Serena Williams again stands
one victory from her record-tying 22nd

who already stopped her once this year in

thats what makes me different. Thats what
makes me Serena.
Yes, she is one of a kind.
When a reporter asked what she makes of
it when others talk about her as one of historys greatest female athletes, this was the
reply: I prefer the word, one of the greatest
athletes of all time.
Hard to argue.
And the case will be even stronger if she
can do what she couldnt in Melbourne:
solve Kerbers left-handed game.
I know, Kerber said, she will go out and
try everything to beat me right now.
That Australian Open victory gave Kerber
her first Grand Slam title in her first Grand
Slam final.
She insisted Thursday shes more relaxed
and more confident on court thanks to that
big moment.

Didnt necessarily look that way at the

outset against Venus, who at 36 was the oldest major semifinalist since Martina
Navratilova was 37 at the All England Club
in 1994.
Venus is a five-time Wimbledon champion
but hadnt been to the semifinals since she
was the runner-up to Serena seven years ago.
Steps away from making it to the end,
Venus said. Thats the position I want to be
in, is playing in the semifinals, playing for
a space in the final.
But against Kerber, Venus was broken the
first four times she served.
She never recovered.
A very shaky match from her. She was
fighting hard, but she was frustrated. I could
tell, said Venus coach, David Witt. Her
concentration was up-and-down. The focus
was up-and-down. That made her game upand-down.

Track chief asks for more athletes to ID dopers

By Raf Casert
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

AMSTERDAM IAAF chief Sebastian Coe

says Russian doping whistleblower Yulia
Stepanova has set an example for other athletes to follow and come forward with testimony.
Its a golden opportunity, that is not necessarily going to present itself again, for our
sport to grab this moment. This is a historic
moment, Coe said on Thursday in an interview.
Theyre there, at the side of the track,
theyre in the training groups. They know the
coaches not doing it with integrity. They can
help us and thats really important.
More than a year ago, Stepanova helped to
blow the Russian doping scandal wide open as
she and her husband, a former Russian antidoping official, gathered a trove of evidence

FEDRONIC
Continued from page 11
And before you brush off Fedronics
accomplishments as someone who couldnt
cut it against American competition, picture
this: Fedronics personal record of 1:59.86,
which was set last month in Atlanta, is the
21st-fastest time in the world this season. It
was her first sub-2 minute race.
There is also the matter of qualifying for
the Olympics. Fedronic said in the U.S.,
athletes have to match or better a qualifying
mark and then finish in top three at the U.S.
Olympic trials. In the case of the 800, an
American runner would have to post a time
of 2:01.5 to even qualify to compete in the
trials.
In France, they changed the standard. Our
qualifying mark is 2 (minutes). We then just
have to compete well at the French championships, Fedronic said. If you hit 2,
youre top-20 in the world. The hard part is
hitting the standard.
Fedronic placed second in the French
championships, finishing behind Renelle
Lamote, whose time of 1:58. 04 is the
fourth-fastest in the world this year.
I have been really happy with my
choice, Fedronic said. Ive been competing for France for three years now. We have
some really great athletes competing.

on how doping has

worked in Russia.
On Wednesday, she
competed in the European
Championships as a neutral athlete, a breakthrough for athletes who
might have information
on doping but fear going
Sebastian Coe public because of professional consequences.
Unfortunately, she tore a ligament in her
right foot during her 800-meter heat, further
complicating her participation in the Rio de
Janeiro Games next month.
First of all, I would like to say that I dont
want this just to be the end of the story, Coe
said.
And I make this offer to all athletes. If you
think you can help us get through this pathology quicker, if you can help us understand the
nature of the challenge that were dealing

with, grab it with both hands and come forward.

Russian track and field athletes are banned
by the IAAF from competing globally, including in the Rio Olympics, because of systematic doping, but Coe said 136 Russians have
applied for clearances. Coe refused to address
any individual cases.
He said that after meeting with Olympic and
track officials over the past weeks, we all
coalesced around the concept of creating a
level playing field for competitors, and this is
a really important moment, not just for my
sport but sport more broadly.
Even though the IAAF and European
Championships organizers have allowed her
to compete, Stepanovas hopes of running in
Rio are still in doubt. The IOC is holding to
the principle that athletes have to compete
under their national flag, and Stepanova said
she would not be welcome on the Russia team
after her doping admission and accusations.

On Thusday, the IOC changed its position

when it opened the door to the possibility of
her participation as a neutral athlete. The
Olympic movement said it was asking its
ethics commission for advice on the issue
and will then decide whether Stepanovas participation merits an exception to the rules of
the Olympic Charter.
Stepanova is the only Russian at the
Europeans, running under a special neutral
flag exemption.
Coe wants others to take her lead.
I dont mind athletes showing passion and
being outspoken about this, but they also
have a responsibility to help us and position
themselves as part of the solution rather than
just sitting there and saying Well I didnt get
a medal because.
They do need to be in a position where
theyre really prepared to stick their heads
above the parapet.

Overcoming injury again paying off

poorest athletes of all pro athletes. Its very

difficult to make a living as a track athlete,
especially in the U.S. I know plenty of
people who have to work on the side. Last
year was difficult. You only make money
when you race.
Thats why the Olympics are so important. Sure, there is the glory and adoration
that goes with accomplishing a life-long
dream. But a good performance could lead to
a better living.
The Olympics are huge for our careers,
Fedronic said. It can change the course of
our careers.

by mosquitoes and can lead to birth defects.

But when you dont know if youll ever
get back to this level, Fedronic is not going
to let this opportunity to pass.
I think all of us have internal concerns,
but it hasnt dissuaded any of us from wanting to go, Fedronic said. Four years is a
very long time. Its really hard to know
where youll be in four years. I cant imagine turning down this opportunity.

Last year, there was no way Fedronic could

have hit that qualifying time, mainly
because she wasnt competing. After enduring a slew of injuries during her high school
and college careers, she spent six months of
her first year as a professional runner on
crutches.
Ive had nine stress injuries (during my
career). Last year, my first year running professionally, I tore my hamstring and couldnt run for six months, Fedronic said. My
record of health up until this year was four
months of consecutive training, which is a
pathetic number. The most important thing
for any athlete is staying healthy.
Patience is a big part of it, too.
Now finally healthy for one of the
longest periods of her career, Fedronic is
seeing all her hard work pay off not only
on the track, but in her pocketbook as well.
As a professional runner, which includes a
shoe deal with Nike, Fedronic is getting
paid to do what she loves. The other side of
it, however, is she has to put up results or
face consequences from her sponsors.
If you think Fedronic is jet-setting around
the world and popping bottles in the club
every night, think again. She is not an NBA
or NFL player. She is a runner and only the
creamiest of the cream-of-the-crop get paid
big money.
We make minimum wage, basically,
Fedronic said. (Runners) are probably the

Not an easy way to make a living

Even if she were getting paid gobs of
money, she still wouldnt be living the high
life. The life of an Olympic runner is a spartan one. She makes a living with her legs
and she does everything in her power to
take care of her body.
Running is extremely taxing on your
body, Fedronic said. Basically, were like
Ferraris very highly-tuned machines.
Every input and output is extremely important.
Realizing her dream, however, comes
with some concerns. As has been widely
reported, there are plenty of problems
affecting Brazil in the leadup to the
Olympics: recession, filth and violence are
but a few of the issues facing the city of Rio.
There are also the health concerns associated with the Zika virus, which is transmitted

Racing is the focus

Fedronic will fly back to Seattle next
week for a couple more weeks of training
before heading to Sao Paulo, Brazil for a
week of training with the French team
before heading to Rio.
This is no pleasure trip for Fedronic. She
said she will not get the opportunity to
walk with the French team for the opening
ceremonies and will leave Brazil shortly
after she is done racing, meaning she will
miss the closing ceremonies as well.
But when your life is running, Fedronic is
looking forward to the actual racing more
than the pomp and circumstance that comes
with the Olympics.
Im definitely excited. Its been a really
good year, but its also been a surprising
year for me. It was always a goal to qualify
for this Olympics, but I really didnt know if
I could get there, Fedronic said. Its just
crazy. [The Olympics are] a representation
of so much hard work and 10 years of training and really investing in the lifestyle.

MONTAUBAN, France British sprinter

Mark Cavendish used his great tactical
sense and impressive burst of speed to win
the sixth stage of the Tour de France in a

Wade finally heeds Chicagos call

By Tim Reynolds
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MIAMI Dwyane Wade never really

planned for this to happen. He wore shirts
that called Miami My City and referred to
AmericanAirlines Arena as My House. He
knew where the three boys that hes raising
would go to high school. He had plans for
what he wanted to do in
South Florida whenever
his basketball days were
complete.
He called himself a
(hash)HeatLifer.
It was his plan. Its no
longer his reality.
In a decision that
essentially started what
Dwyane Wade will become a massive
shake-up of the franchise, Wade decided Wednesday night that
he will leave the Miami Heat after 13 seasons. He agreed to terms on a two-year contract with the Chicago Bulls and will earn
about $47 million, instantly making him
the highest-paid player on his new team
a distinction he never had in Miami.
Miami had become home. Chicago was
his first home, and is now his next home.
This was not an easy decision, but I feel
I have made the right choice for myself and
my family, Wade wrote in a letter to
Miami, released to the Associated Press.
On Thursday, while guest-hosting the
popular morning television talk show
Live with Kelly alongside Kelly Ripa in
New York, Wade paid tribute to Heat fans
again and thanked them for their support.
He also made clear that hes long dreamed of
hearing his name called out and cheered in

NBA brief
Ayesha Curry regrets
calling NBA rigged
Ayesha Curry says she didnt think about the
ramifications when she called the NBA rigged
on Twitter after husband Stephen Currys
Golden State Warriors lost to the Cleveland
Cavaliers in Game 6 of the NBA finals.
Curry tells People magazine she regrets the
ways she voiced how hurt she was and didnt
mean to offend anyone. She says what she
wrote isnt what she thinks about what her husband does for a living.
Stephen Curry tells the magazine he knows
where his wife was coming from and adds that
hes advised her to ignore what people say,
because youre not going to win any battles on
Twitter.

Chicago, the city where he grew up.

I just want to thank all my fans, Wade
said on-air, before a studio audience that
included at least one person who waved his
now-former Heat jersey. We call it Heat
Nation ... and we did some special things
together.
Also, in what seems coincidental, the LiNing shoe line that bears Wades name
released a new two-pair pack Wednesday.
The packs title? Miami and Chicago.
One pair is orange in a nod to Wades
beloved Chicago Bears, and the other is
aqua to pay tribute to the Miami Dolphins
and the water of the South Florida coastline.
By nightfall, Miami and Chicago were
linked again in Wades world, and no one
was thinking about sneaker colors.
His name already hangs from the rafters at
what is now his former home arena, commemorating his Olympic success while
with the Heat. Eventually, his No. 3 will be
hoisted as well. And regardless of how long
hes with the Bulls or any other club, on the
night he goes into the Basketball Hall of
Fame, the tribute videos will be dominated
by what he did in a Heat uniform.
Wade is Miamis career leader in games,
minutes, field goals, field goal attempts,
free throws, free throw attempts, assists,
steals and points. Hes even second in
blocked shots, perhaps the most impressive stat of all considering Wade is listed at
6-foot-4 which is generous, probably by
about an inch.
He played for all three Heat title teams. He
was the Finals MVP in 2006. He was a 12time All-Star. He was beloved like only a
handful were in Miami, reaching a stratosphere perhaps only seen by the likes of
Dan Marino, Alonzo Mourning and Jason

Taylor. And Wade won more rings than all of

them, combined.
Thank you (at)DwyaneWade for a great
13 yrs! Heat managing general partner
Micky Arison wrote on Twitter. Youve had
a tremendous impact on our community and
our organization. We wish you all the best.
Everything that followed Wades decision, which was first reported by Yahoo
Sports, reflected all sides putting their best
foot forward. Wades letter showed how difficult the decision was to leave; Arisons
tweet was a far cry from how Cleveland
owner Dan Gilbert infamously reacted in
2010 when LeBron James left the Cavaliers
for a four-year, four-Finals run in Miami.
In actuality, there were hurt feelings on
both sides, and understandably.
A year ago, Wade and the Heat nearly parted ways before settling on a $20 million,
one-year deal. Miami offered more of the
same this summer $40 million for two
years, the second year at Wades option.
And when factoring in tax ramifications,
that offer wasnt too far off from what the
Bulls will pay Wade in the next two seasons.
It was simply time for a change. Maybe
even more simply, it was time for Wade to
go home.
Watching the Bulls growing up inspired
me at an early age to pursue my dream of
becoming a basketball player, Wade wrote
in the letter. My most treasured memories
were watching my dad play basketball on
the courts of Fermi Elementary School and
developing my game at the Blue Island
Recreation Center. I have never forgotten
where I came from and I am thankful to have
an opportunity to play for the team that
first fueled my love of the game.

Continued from page 11
We want to be better. You cant do any better
than adding KD to the current crew.
Kerr wont change his teams style with the
addition of KD, whom the coach will count
on as a brilliant passer and someone who
can cut and do it all.
Weve got as many or more playmakers
on the floor as anybody, said Kerr, already
planning his training camp strategy on the
court and how to prepare his players for even
further scrutiny.
Durant might be able to match his coachs
wit, too.
When asked about Thompson being part of
the pitch meeting, Durant quipped about
receiving a text message from him: I didnt
know he had a phone.
Of Warriors assistant coach and former
member of the Thunder staff Ron Adams, he
said, Ron Adams was the only reason I
came. They shared a big hug before
Thursdays festivities.
Durant announced his decision Monday in
a story on The Players Tribune, then
Thursday marked the first day free agents
could sign their deals. He joins the NBA runner-up Warriors who rallied from a 3-1
deficit to beat Durants former Oklahoma
City Thunder in a thrilling seven-game
Western Conference Finals before losing the
finals in seven games to Cleveland on a
two-year contract worth more than $54 million. There is a player option after the first
year.
Not that Durant plans to skip town after
one season. Hes here to win a championship.
You never expect to get this much better,
general manager Bob Myers said. Ive
admired Kevin as a basketball fan. ... Im just
excited to watch you play. Im honored
youre here, Im honored you chose us. Its a
wonderful feeling.
Durant even spoke to Hall of Famer Jerry
West along the way to help him weigh his

choice.
I know its Jerry West and I know hes the
Logo, and youre expecting a sexier conversation, but it was more so about the team
and how I could fit in and how great the
coaching staff was, Durant said.
Still, Durant went to bed Sunday torn and
still uncertain about his choice, and he told
his father and representatives he needed a
night to sleep on it. Then he woke up first
thing Monday with more clarity.
He knew it would have been easy to go
back to something youre comfortable
with.
This, he said, is the harder route It was
time for me to try something new, try a new
challenge. No better place to do it than
here.
Former teammate Russell Westbrook took
it hard.
That call to Oklahoma City was the hardest thing Ive had to do in my life. Tears were
shed. I trusted my gut, he said. We live in
this superhero comic book world where
either youre a villain or youre a superhero if
youre in this position, and I know that, and
I know I havent changed as a person. I dont
treat people any differently because I made
the decision to play basketball in another
city. I understand the fans in Oklahoma City
and basketball fans around the world are, I
guess, upset. But like I said, I made the decision based upon what I wanted to do and how
I felt, and its the best decision for me, so I
cant really control how you feel.
Ultimately for Durant, having fun for however many years he has left playing basketball is the plan.
I just want to enjoy every single day of
it.

LAS VEGAS After Jon Jones failed doping

test threw UFC 200 into turmoil, Conor
McGregor realized the UFC needed a last-minute
opponent for light heavyweight champion
Daniel Cormier.
McGregor might be a featherweight fighting

knows no poundage.
Im here, and Im in shape, McGregor said
Thursday. All they have to do is ask.

after his 15-fight winning streak ended with a
stunning loss to Nate Diaz in March. The fighters traded their usual trash talk and posturing

has no idea why he failed last months test
after passing seven doping tests this year.
Although Jones had endured numerous public embarrassments over his apparent use of
recreational drugs, he has been a vocal
opponent of performance-enhancing substances in MMA.
You can say whatever you want about Jon
over the years, Kawa said. For the last
year, hes done nothing but try his best to
live his life right, to eat right, to do the
right things, and obviously not to be in this
type of predicament. ... He didnt cheat at
all.
USADA spokesman Ryan Madden confirmed the potential violation stemmed
from an out-of-competition test on June 16.
Mr. Jones B-sample is currently being
analyzed by the independent WADA-accredited laboratory in Salt Lake City, Utah,
Madden said. We have requested that the
laboratory report those results to us as soon
as possible.
No matter the results of the second test,
Brock Lesnars heavyweight bout with
knockout artist Mark Hunt is UFC 200s
new main event. While fans arrived at TMobile Arena to watch open workouts for
Hunt and Lesnar, workers tore down oversized posters of Jones and Cormier on the
facade.
Lesnar, the popular professional wrestler
returning from a 4 1/2-year UFC absence,
also was the headliner at UFC 100 in 2009,
with Jones fighting on the undercard.
I feel a little bad for (Cormier), Lesnar
said. Guys go hard. They go through training camps and put lots of time in, and thats
where D.C. really gets the short end of the
stick. Its really unprofessional of anybody

when they made their first

joint appearance to promote their rematch at UFC
202 on Aug. 20 at Las
Vegas new T-Mobile Arena.
McGregor (19-3) only
jokingly volunteered to
fight at UFC 200, but made
it clear hes serious about
avenging his loss to Diaz
Conor
(19-10) and reasserting his
McGregor
position atop the promotions hierarchy. McGregor even referred to the
widespread rumors of the UFCs impending sale
to an investment conglomerate by claiming he
was the main reason behind it all.
The reason theres a $4.2 billion price tag on
this company is because of me, McGregor said.
The Chinese estimate my net worth at $4.2 billion.
of this caliber when something like that
happens.
Jones (22-1) briefly left the stage at his
news conference after being overcome with
emotion. Several minutes later, he broke
down when asked what he would say to
Cormier, his longtime rival and frequent
verbal sparring partner.
I know this fight meant a lot to him,
Jones said. The fight meant a lot to me. ...
I know some good will come from this, but
right now its hard to see it.
Jones talent is indisputable after winning
the 205-pound title in 2011 and defending it
eight times. But he has endured numerous
troubles of his own making in recent years.
He has failed drug tests around two of his
last three fights. He tested positive for
cocaine use shortly before beating Cormier
in their first meeting in January 2015, but
was allowed to fight because the detected
metabolite was not banned for out-of-competition use by the Nevada Athletic
Commission.
A few months later, Jones was suspended
by the UFC and had his title stripped due to
his involvement in a hit-and-run accident in
Albuquerque, New Mexico, where he lives
and trains.
Cormier won the 205-pound title during
Jones UFC suspension, which was lifted in
October 2015. After Cormier pulled out of
their scheduled April rematch with a foot
injury, Jones returned with a victory over
Ovince Saint Preux.
Jones, who turns 29 later this month,
realizes he could have another extended
absence from his sport. He has fought just
three times since September 2013.
If I do have to sit out for two years, Ill
definitely be back, Jones said. Im already
thinking about the good that can happen. I
try to stay optimistic. At the end of the day,
Im a fighter, and even though I may seem
broken up here, Im not broken. Im just
really upset.

her stroke for stroke with players
standing 3-under through their
first 11 holes. But Lee birdied five
of her final seven holes, while
Kerr had three birdies and a bogey
down the stretch as a gap opened
between the two.
Despite that, Kerr was quite
pleased with how her round went
considering the way she has
played most of this year. The 2007
U.S. Open winner has not finished
higher than 10th all season and
missed two cuts in her three tournaments leading into this week.
But with a new shaft on her driver, Kerr found her game in the
opening round.
When youre struggling to hit
fairways, it makes the game a lot
harder, Kerr said. And then the
mental game gets off of it, its a
whole process like that. But I
knew when I found the driver this
week that it just felt so much like
my old driver and we found the
right combination and even if I
missed a little bit I could feel what
I did wrong, I could feel the difference.

FONG
Continued from page 1
long investigation initially sparked by the
San Mateo Police Department. The local
agency was conducting an undercover operation at the Metropolitan Apartment complex
on the 300 block of South Fremont Street
when they first realized something deeper
was about to unravel, said San Mateo police
Lt. Todd Mefford.
Years of conducting numerous stings in
conjunction with federal officials as well as
other law enforcement agencies revealed an
extensive prostitution network headquartered
in San Mateo County, Mefford said.
There is no community thats immune to
this, because its such a lucrative business.
And it really has a lasting impact on the victims, Mefford said. In reacting to Fongs
plea, Mefford said, We will let the federal
authorities determine his sentence, but his
reign in San Mateo and the Bay Area is over.
Fong has been described as the head of
racketeering enterprise that supervised the
recruitment of prostitutes from Asian countries, rented apartments to use as brothels,
transported prostitutes and arranged online
advertising the latter is how police first
caught on. A 2014 grand jury indictment said
the enterprise operated 40 brothels in the
Peninsula, South Bay and East Bay cities

MacIsaac.
Burlingame is in a bubble of neighboring
communities on the Peninsula which are
expecting a student enrollment increase in
coming years, along with elementary
school districts serving San Mateo, Foster
City, Belmont and San Carlos.
The affordability crisis has wreaked havoc
on school enrollment patterns throughout
the county, and MacIsaac said it has taken
hold in Burlingame, as the district continues growing, but at a decelerated rate from
years prior.
We are not growing as much as we grew
five years ago, she said. But we are still
growing.
She said school officials have also identified the opportunity for more students to
come from new housing built along the

LOCAL

THE DAILY JOURNAL

between 2002 and 2014.

The cities included San Mateo, where 14
brothels were located, Redwood City,
Belmont, San Bruno, Colma, Foster City,
South San Francisco, Santa Clara, Sunnyvale
and Pinole, according to Bay City News
Service.
Mefford said the case first began to unfold
in 2009 when San Mateo police conducted a
sting after coming across a prostitution add
online via sites like Craigslist and
MyRedBook.com. Investigators quickly
realized the case was related to human trafficking and contacted officials with the U.S.
offices of Homeland Security and
Immigration and Customs Enforcement,
Mefford said.
When we come across something that signals a potential human trafficking case, we
look at that first contact as the tip of the iceberg before we start digging and we investigate every avenue possible, Mefford said.
Jointly, they went on to work with other
law enforcement agencies to conduct numerous other stings that pointed to Fong a
married San Mateo resident with a daughter
who was working at an Alameda Safeway
as the leader, Mefford said.
Fong would arrange the rental of apartments, primarily at larger complexes, where
women who were brought from a variety of
primarily Asian countries would come for
about three months at a time. In San Mateo,
the brothels were located in various neighborhoods such as Los Prados, Laurie

Meadows, Lakeshore Landing and more,

Mefford said.
The neighborhoods are not immune to
this type of activity coming in, Mefford
said, adding the only thing predictable about
the Johns was that they came around the
clock. There was a mix from day laborer
types, to attorneys on their lunch.
Because the main nexus was Fong, who was
based in San Mateo, the local department
remained committed to being an integral part
of the investigation, Mefford said. He recalled
how the first sting at the Metropolitan apartment was part of the departments neighborhood response team and urged people to report
suspicious behavior.
In the Fong case, indicators would have
been seeing woman with suitcases staying
for short periods of time, Johns coming at
all hours of the day and only staying an hour
or less, and shorter-term leases most frequently at larger apartment complexes,
Mefford said.
Fong was convicted of 32 counts that
include conspiracy to racketeer, conspiracy
to use foreign and interstate commerce to further prostitution, money laundering and conspiracy to launder money. Other counts
include conspiring to transport foreign funds
to the United States for an illegal purpose,
transporting foreign funds and conspiring to
transport an undocumented immigrant to the
United States for the purpose of prostitution,
according to Bay City News.
Several of the counts carry sentences of up

to 20 years in prison.
Fong was the only person out of the 10
linked to the case to be charged on all 32
counts. Fongs brother, Waylen Fong, 72,
previously pleaded guilty to one count of
racketeering conspiracy and was sentenced
to probation Tuesday. The indictment said
Waylen Fongs role was to rent two of the
apartments, according to Bay City News.
Kevin Hartig, a Daly City man, also faces
charges. The cases remain pending for the
other eight defendants, some of whom are
foreign citizens from Thailand, Singapore
and Taiwan.
Mefford noted many of the victims,
although technically considered to be here
willingly, were offered assistance as well as
services; however, many returned to their
home countries.
Looking back, Mefford noted the investigation began as a neighborhood service but
branched out to uncovering a sophisticated
prostitution sting. While police had been
proactive in this case and agencies do conduct undercover operations, he also urged the
community to assist.
We want to make sure were doing everything possible to reduce the number of victims and put perpetrators away, Mefford
said. So if you see something, say something. Because we need [the publics] eyes
and ears in the community.

Bayfront, which has been addressed during

ongoing discussions by city officials.
All this is up in the air when you talk
about a city that is OKing development,
she said.
MacIsaac also noted the increased cost of
living in Burlingame has forced residents to
move into smaller and less traditional forms
of housing than they had considered in previous years, making it even more difficult
for school officials to project enrollment
growth.
In areas we may not consider families
wanting to live in, they are living in, she
said.
Beyond housing more students, many of
the districts campuses are aging and in dire
need of improvement, according to the
release.
The money would pay for fixing leaky
roofs, asbestos removal, seismic renovations, as well as redesigning some of the
school entrances which currently lead into
hallways, rather than administrative

offices, among other efforts.

Because so many of the districts schools
are so old, many need improvements to
accommodate students under the Americans
with Disabilities Act, added MacIsaac and
the proposed bond would pay toward such
work.
Science classrooms converted from previous uses would be rebuilt to better serve the
moderns needs of students, among similar
technological updates and modernizations,
added MacIsaac.
The district most recently received voter
support in 2012 for Measure D, a $56 million bond which paid toward addressing
classroom overcrowding, and renovating
Hoover Elementary School, which is set to
reopen next month, among other projects.
Kay Coskey, president of the Board of
Trustees, said in a prepared statement she
believed the proposed bond is necessary to
continue offering Burlingame students the
best education possible.
We are grateful to live in a community

that is so supportive of its local schools.

Voter-approved local funding has helped
strengthen our academic programs and
improve our school facilities to support student success, she said. However, if we
wish to build upon this success, the fact
remains that our aging schools are in need
of repair.
MacIsaac agreed, and said in a prepared
statement the additional money generated
by the bond would help the district offset
the cost of construction, in lieu of receiving
inadequate funding for building from the
state Legislature.
Every penny from this measure would
benefit our local schools right here in
Burlingame, MacIsaac said. Because the
state is no longer funding school facilities
improvements, we needed to seek out a local
solution. I am confident this measure is a
solid plan to address identified needs in our
schools so that we can continue to focus on
educating our children for successful
futures.

CLASSIC TOY MUSEUM IN

BURLINGAME
CELEBRATES
THE 1 0 0 TH ANNIVERSARY OF
THE RAY GUN. The phrase ray gun
first appeared almost 100 years ago, in
the 1917 book The Messiah of the
Cylinder. The first ray gun toy, a Buck
Rogers Rocket Pistol, sold in 1934.
Now, The Classic Toy Museum in
Burlingame celebrates the 100th
Anniversary of the ray gun with an
exhibit that includes the Hubley
Atomic Blaster made in 1954 and the
Nu-Age Smoke Ring Ray Gun, also
made in 1954. The Classic Toy Museum
is part of the Burlingame Museum of
PEZ Memorabilia, which opened in
1995. Over the past 20 years, Gary
Doss, its owner and curator, has added
classic toys including the first Lego
sets and the first Mr. Potato Head. Five
years ago banned toys were added,
including Yard Darts and the 1951
Atomic Energy Laboratory. Ray guns
are the latest exhibit. Doss said: I
have always loved looking at pictures
of what the future might look like. Jet
packs, robots, flying cars. Growing up
in the 1960s, I always watched Star
Trek, Lost in Space, the Jetsons and
an afternoon kids show called
Captain Satellite. Shown on San
Franciscos KTVU, it featured real kids
on a set that looked like the inside of a
space ship. As curator of the Classic
Toy Museum, I wanted to create a new
exhibit that featured toys of a possible
future. In my mind, one toy fit perfectly the ray gun. For more information about the exhibit, including photographs, visit www.classictoymuseum.com/rayguns. The museum gift

Try making baked

BBQ zucchini chips
By Melisa dArabian
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

It all started with the kale chip.

I fell in love the texture of the
thick, green leaf made thin and so
delicately crisp by baking that it
felt almost flaky, with just enough
thickness to impart a satisfying
little crunch before nearly dissolving into salty-grassy goodness on
the tongue.
And I wasnt alone: healthy-conscious eaters crowned the kale chip
its unofficial sweetheart and suddenly they were available not just
in health-food stores, but in minimarts, airports and gas stations.
Which led me to ask: What else
might we chip-up in a dehydrator
or oven? And what other flavors
might we add? My daughters alltime favorite potato chip is BBQ
flavored, so that became my mission a baked veggie chip that
mimicked the BBQ potato chip flavor, with all natural ingredients.
In mixing up various spice rubs,
we were surprised by how much
brown sugar we needed to emulate
that characteristic flavor. And then
we struck gold: what if we used a
naturally sweet vegetable, which
would allow us to reduce the added
sugar down to nearly nothing?
And thus, the baked BBQ zucchi-

ni chip was born! It was a huge hit

with the BBQ-potato-chip-lovers
in my house. And heres the really
good news: You dont need any
special equipment to make this
happen.
If you have a dehydrator, great
you probably already have a
strong veggie-chip game going.
For the rest of us: your oven on
low will work great for this recipe.
And, you dont even need a mandoline for slicing. I have one, but
almost never use it ever since nipping off a bit of finger years ago
on an episode of Ten Dollar
Dinners.
Use a knife and slice relatively
thin, and thats fine. In fact, the
slices are better and sturdier when
they arent too thin anyway. I do

young River Phoenix), Vespyr (Annalise
Basso), Kielyr (Samantha Isler) and Bo have

day and all.
The casting director should win an award
for finding these truly excellent young performers, who shine alongside the always
wonderful Mortensen.
But the cracks are starting to show in this
little family unit, and not just because normal hormones and attitudes are emerging.
Im not a Trotskyist any more. Im a

Continued from page 19
and comic exploration about whether our
hyper-digital, cacophonous lives have
strayed from more elemental things.
It feels like one of those movies that has
connected with something related to U.S.
society right now, Mortensen said while
smoking a cigarette on a rooftop patio after
the film played at the Cannes Film Festival
in May. People get bewildered and think: I
cant do that. Im not going to skin a f---ing
deer. But there are other things you can do.
The film is the second directing feature for
Matt Ross, a veteran actor known to many
as Gavin Belson on HBOs Silicon Valley.
In Captain Fantastic, the idyll of the familys off-the-grid existence is challenged

THE DAILY JOURNAL

Maoist! Bo says in an angsty teenage huff

at one point.
No, there is something more serious festering. Their mother, Leslie (Trin Miller),
has been away for three months, hospitalized with severe depression. The kids miss
her dearly, and her absence is becoming an
issue. But we never get the chance to really
meet her. Ben finds out early in the film that
shes killed herself.
He tells the kids this fact very frankly.
Ben never lies to his children. He trusts that
they can handle the truth, whether its the
circumstances of their mothers death and
mental illness or the littlest one asking
what rape is.
The death forces the family out of their little paradise and into the real world to attend
her funeral in Arizona even though
Leslies grieving father Jack (Frank
Langella) has threatened to arrest Ben if he
shows up. But, cmon. Its their mother. Of

course theyre going to go.

Grandpa cant oppress us! the youngest
exclaims.
So, they pack up their rickety green
school bus and venture down from their
ivory tower to go south, into the depths of
the America that Ben hates. The younger
ones have been so sheltered that theyve
never heard of Coke or Nike, or seen an
obese person. Things get especially tense
when they meet Bens sister (Kathryn Hahn)
and her family and disrupt their suburban
normalcy.
While the kids seem happy, all outsiders
are pretty much in agreement that Ben is
unfit to parent. Unlike Harrison Fords
unsympathetic Mosquito Coast protagonist, however, Ben clearly loves his family
deeply and genuinely thinks that his way is
the best way. This struggle between the
individual parent and societys expectations
is one without an easy resolution. Both are

right and wrong.

The film veers into cloying sentimentality a little too often, and, some might tire of
Bens philosophies. But, that also just
means that theres room for his character to
grow too.
Captain Fantastic is the second feature
from writer-director Matt Ross (his first was
the affair drama 28 Rooms), who is currently best known for his acting. In addition to
over two decades in the movies, Ross plays
the tech titan Gavin Belson on HBOs
Silicon Valley. I imagine a film of the caliber of Captain Fantastic is bound to
change that this is no flash in the pan
success. Its a single, beautifully realized
vision with edge and a true heart.
Captain Fantastic, a Bleecker Street
release, is rated R by the Motion Picture
Association of America for language and
brief graphic nudity. Running time: 118
minutes. Three and a half stars out of four.

when their mother dies. A bus trip to her

New Mexico parents (long critics of their
lifestyle choices) confronts the kids with
consumerist American life and teases out
questions about their highly educated but
socially removed upbringing. Should 8year-olds really be climbing rock faces?
Ross acknowledges there are some autobiographical aspects to the tale. His mother,
he says, was a seeker and he grew up partly in alternative living communities.
(They were hippie communes but they
werent really hippie communes because it
was the 80s, he jokes.) He has lived in a
teepee in the summer and does, like his fictional family, celebrate Noam Chomsky
Day. (Hes my hero, he says.)
But the film, which opens Friday , mostly
came out of Rosss own parenting. He and
his wife, who live in Berkeley, California,
have a 13-year-old daughter and 9-year-old
son.

I had a lot of questions about being a

father and a parent, and I wanted to contextualize it or dramatize it, says Ross. And I
was sort of butting up against our culture
and who we are as a country.
For the shoot in Washington, Ross had
his cast come out two weeks early to help
build the familys home.
There were many things on some scale I
had to learn for this, says Mortensen. Im
not that kind of parent. I dont have his way
of reasoning. But I do connect to certain
things and approve of other things. I was
very happy to be in the woods.
Its the kind of preparation that
Mortensen relishes. For The Lord of the
Rings, he slept outside with his sword. For
David Cronenbergs Eastern Promises
(Mortensens lone Oscar nomination), he
briefly lived in Russia and suggested his
characters extensive Russian mafia tattoos. On Captain Fantastic, he built a gar-

den and learned to play the bagpipes.

I like to bring objects, ideas. And I like
to work with directors who arent threatened
by that. Its just my process and it helps
me, says Mortensen, who also writes poetry, composes classical music and founded
his own publishing company. I just want
to make the most of each moment were
filming, in terms of preparing it and doing
it, but also as a human being. This is part of
my life. Its not just a fiction.
While Captain Fantastic is proudly liberal, its conclusion rests on compromise
with the fathers conservative in-laws. But
both Ross and Mortensen, who waved
Bernie Sanders flags in Cannes, are troubled
by the countrys direction. That its a country of immigrants has magically disappeared in some peoples minds,
Mortensen, who grew up in Argentina,
upstate New York and Denmark, says, shaking his head.

RAIL
Continued from page 1
system as part of a $2.2 billion modernization program.
The boards unanimous vote highlighted its optimism in Caltrains
ability to secure the remainder of its
necessary funding as it seeks to
improve the backbone of the
Peninsulas transportation system,
which stretches through one of the
most economically productive areas in
the state.
The
Caltrain
Modernization
Program is the most transformative
project this corridor has ever undertaken, Caltrain Executive Director Jim
Hartnett said in press release. It offers
unique economic, environmental and
mobility benefits to the region and it
is a key link in a high-speed rail network that will transform the way we
think about transportation in
California.
However, the regional local transit
agency doesnt yet have $1.3 billion
in necessary funding the gap
includes contributions from highspeed rail as well as a federal grant it
applied for last year that staff hopes to
hear about by the years end.
The recently approved design-build
contracts include hiring Balfour Beatty
Infrastructure to electrify the tracks,
and manufacturer Stradler US to provide 16 new electric trains.

Seeking to avoid delays

The agreements include provisions
for both engineering firms to begin
designing their projects with only a
portion of funding, with acknowledgment they must wait until Caltrain
secures the remainder before actually
commencing construction.
In this way, Caltrain can in essence
lock in a general price for the projects
instead of postponing while construction costs rise. Staff noted they hoped
to proceed with building possibly as
early as spring of 2017 and, if all goes
according to plan, commuters could be
riding electric trains as early as the end
of 2020.
But opponents remained concerned
Caltrain cannot guarantee its funding
will align, and contend the project is
too heavily reliant on high-speed rail
the states bullet train slated to
share the Peninsula tracks as part of
the blended system.
Jeff Gee, a Caltrain board member
and Redwood City councilman, noted
previous decisions to not expand the
Peninsulas transit options such as
extending Bay Area Rapid Transit further south or creating another bridge
across the Bay has resulted in unfortunate consequences.
While we complain about traffic

and congestion and housing today,

from my perspective, its the result of
saying no decades ago, Gee said,
adding electrification would help preserve the opportunity for future generations to be able to live and move in
the region.
He noted that in large capital
improvement projects, rarely is all the
funding committed on day one; furthermore, governments often prefer to
extend resources over a period of time
instead of all up front, Gee said.
Caltrains plans to electrify 51 miles
of track between San Francisco and
San Jose depends on support from
local, regional, state and federal funding. The costs have ballooned as the
project dragged on from $1.5 billion a
few years ago to now nearly $2.2 billion.
Numerous public speakers noted further delays would only add to the costs.
Greg Greenway, a member of the
Redwood City-San Mateo County
Chamber of Commerce Board, said the
business community is thrilled to see
the project proceed.
Theres an urgent need for this project obviously, and now is the time to
make this investment. It will only be
more expensive in the future,
Greenway said.
Other representatives from economic development groups, unions and
even Facebook agreed the improvements are vital to those who live or
work along a corridor where congestion has become increasingly problematic.
Immediately following approval of
the contracts, the board went on to
enter into an agreement with the
California High-Speed Rail Authority
for the state to provide a total of $713
million toward electrifying the corridor they may share.
Caught up in prior litigation, the
authority has been unable to tap into
the majority of its $10 billion in
voter-approved Proposition 1A bonds,
meaning Caltrain has yet to see money
in hand.
Thursdays contract included provisions for the states controversial rail
project to provide interim funding if
its unable to access the voterapproved bonds that come with certain
restrictions.
Assemblyman Kevin Mullin, DSouth San Francisco, has also proposed a bill to clarify earlier legislation that funds may be used on projects
such as Caltrain electrification.

Concerns, holdups remain

Opponents, some who have filed a
lawsuit against Caltrain claiming its
environmental review isnt adequate,
spoke during the meeting as they urged
the board to hold off.
David Schonbrunn, president of the
Transportation Solutions Defense and
Education Fund, contends Caltrain is

Friday July 8, 2016

23

legally prohibited from accessing the

voter-approved funds that can only be
spent on projects that lead to a highspeed rail ready segment. TRANSDEF
is one of the entities suing alongside
the city of Atherton, which alleges the
environmental review of electrification is lacking and the impacts of
bringing high-speed rail to the corridor would be overly burdensome.
Were transit advocates doing our
best to steer you away from the cliff
you are rushing towards, Schonbrunn
told the board. The bond measure was
approved by the voters so it is their
will that counts. Amending a voterapproved measure is unconstitutional
unless the Legislature goes back to the
voters. Without the high-speed rail
funds, this entire project is a fantasy
and this approval ceremony today is
mere theater.
Caltrain anticipates hearing whether
its application for a $647 federal grant
is approved later this year. As part of
its agreement with high-speed rail,
which must be approved by the authority in August, the state would help
Caltrain evaluate next steps if it fails
to receive the grant, according to staff.
The authority would also agree to provide cash-flow funding which
could come from funds such as cap-andtrade or state budgetary allocations
if its unable to release the bond funds
in time.
The High-Speed Rail Authority
recently started its own environmental
review of the segment running through
the Peninsula since it opted to shift
initial operations further north. The
entire project has been stunted by skyrocketing costs with estimates now at
about $64 billion, several lawsuits and
communities questioning whether the
state would fund vital grade separation
projects.
Adrienne Tissier, Caltrain board
member and a county supervisor, noted
while people may have differing opinions, it took bold moves in years past
to get the local transportation agency
to a point where its ridership is up
nearly 240 percent.
It took risks and change for those
things to happen, Tissier said.
Today is another one of those days to
make that change, make that shift so
we can increase our ridership, increase
our revenue and make for a much
smoother rail.
The entire Caltrain Modernization
Program includes electrifying the
tracks, installing a new federally-mandated control system and purchasing
new trains. Officials hope to be 75 percent electric by late 2020. By 2040,
the new system is expected to reduce
176,000 metric tons of greenhouse
gas emissions a year by hosting nearly 111,0000 daily commuters nearly double its current ridership.

DALLAS
the pavement by two white officers. That,
too, was captured on a cellphone video.
Video footage from the Dallas scene
showed protesters were marching along a
street in downtown, about half a mile from
City Hall, when the shots erupted and the
crowd scattered, seeking cover.
Brown said that it appeared the shooters
planned to injure and kill as many officers
as they could.
The search for the shooters stretched
throughout downtown, an area of hotels,
restaurants, businesses and some residential apartments. The scene was chaotic,
with helicopters hovering overhead and
officers with automatic rifles on the street
corners.
Everyone just started running, Devante
Odom, 21, told The Dallas Morning News.
We lost touch with two of our friends just
trying to get out of there.
One woman was taken into custody in the
same parking garage where the standoff was
ongoing, Brown said. Two others were
taken into custody during a traffic stop.
Brown said police dont have a motivation for the attacks or any information on
the suspects. He said they triangulated in
the downtown area where the protesters
were marching and had some knowledge of
the route they would take. He said authori-

Police were not certain early Friday that
all suspects have been located, Brown said.
Rawlings said at the news conference that
authorities will likely ask some people to
stay away from downtown Dallas on Friday.
This is still an active crime scene. Were

decisions that will determine Californias
next course of action to combat climate
change, she said in a written statement.

pollution credits were sold in a May auction, leaving the state billions short in projected revenues.
A state appeals court is also considering a
challenge to the program by the California
Chamber of Commerce, which argues that
the program is an illegal tax, not a fee.
A spokeswoman for Brown, Deborah
Hoffman, did not respond to a question on
the talks, but said in a statement that the
cap-and-trade program must be extended
and we will work hard to get that done.
We will not meet our world-leading clean

air and emission reduction targets unless we

solidify and redouble our commitment to the
states cap and trade program and climate
goals beyond 2020, she said in a written
statement.
She said extending the program would
ensure funding for clean energy programs in
vulnerable communities.
A quarter of the cap-and-trade revenue is
currently earmarked for Browns high-speed
rail project, with the rest funding a wide
variety of programs aimed at reducing emissions or mitigating the damage from climate change.

BAY CITY NEWS SERVICE

The California Highway Patrol issued a

Sig-alert for Interstate 880 in Oakland
Thursday night after a large group of protesters demonstrating against police violence shut down the road in both directions.
A large protest gathered at Frank Ogawa
Plaza around 7 p.m. in response to the
fatal police shootings of Alton Sterling in
Louisiana and Philando Castile in
Minnesota.
An unspecified number of demonstrators
moved north on Broadway around 7:25
p.m., according to police. By 8:38 p.m.
they had gathered on Interstate 880 near

The Los Angeles Times first reported on

the talks.
The current cap-and-trade program only
has authority to operate until 2020.
Browns administration plans next week to
release a blueprint for extending the program until 2030, and there is legislation
pending that would authorize it to continue.
Still, only about a tenth of the available

the Broadway exit.

The CHP issued a Sig-alert for both
directions of Interstate 880 around 9:10
p. m. , asking drivers to use alternate
routes. Big-rigs were given permission
to use Interstate 580 on a temporary
basis.
Protesters at the scene described the
police presence at Thursdays demonstration as minimal, but a group of officers
had massed outside the police station
around 10:10 p.m. in response to a damaged door.
At 10:55 p.m., Oakland police said the
crowd had dwindled to roughly 500 people, and that CHP officers were managing
the incident on the freeway.

Peete said she saw a woman trip and nearly get trampled.
She was able to push one boy in between
cars to shield him and lost sight of the others, Williams said.
He was covered in his moms blood,
Williams said of her nephew.
Late Thursday, Dallas police in uniform
and in plainclothes were standing behind a
police line at the entrance to the emergency
room at Baylor Medical Center in Dallas. It
was unclear how many injured officers were
taken there. The hospital spokeswoman,
Julie Smith, had no immediate comment.
Three of the officers who were killed were
with the Dallas Police Department. One was
a Dallas Area Rapid Transit officer.
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott released a statement saying he has directed the Texas
Department of Public Safety director to
offer whatever assistance the City of
Dallas needs at this time.
In times like this we must remember
and emphasize the importance of uniting
as Americans, Abbott said.
Other protests across the U. S. on
Thursday were peaceful. In midtown
Manhattan, protesters first gathered in
Union Square Park where they chanted The
people united, never be divided! and What
do we want? Justice. When do we want it?
Now! In Minnesota, where Castile was
shot, hundreds of protesters marched in the
rain from a vigil to the governors official
residence. Protesters also marched in
Atlanta, Chicago and Philadelphia.
