San Carlos seeks to shift homework policy

Elementary school officials consider granting students more autonomy
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

San Carlos school officials are slated to

implement a new homework policy
designed to recognize the old adage learning does not stop when a student leaves the
classroom.
The San Carlos Elementary School
District Board of Trustees will address a proposed policy shift during a meeting

Thursday, Sept. 22, granting students

greater authority to manage their own education during their time away from campus.
District officials proposed the amendment under the assumption a one-size-fitsall approach to homework assignments is
not in the best interest of local students,
according to a district report.
Research does not support the notion
that a specific amount of time spent doing
homework leads to higher academic

achievement or school performance. As

such, any specific amounts of time suggested for students that are included in school
handbooks shall serve only as a general
guide for students, parents and staff, and are
not to be viewed as prescriptive or
required, according to the proposed revised
policy.
The proposed policy shift comes after
months of deliberation by district officials
who expressed an interest in assuring stu-

dents develop a wide set of skills which will

serve them along their path in higher education and eventually the workplace.
We know from research that students are
most successful when they take ownership
of their learning and when they are encouraged to set goals for themselves, and as a
result are more self-motivated to research a
topic and follow through to completion of

Immigrants focus of summit

The San Mateo County Board of Supervisors rejected a

recommendation that an oversight committee be formed to
monitor the countys Private Defender Program.
The bar association contracts with the county for $19
million a year to provide criminal defense for defendants
who cannot afford their own attorneys.
In recent months, the county conducted an analysis of the
program that determined the lawyers who run it have failed

Man surrenders in Mexico on

Pacifica sex crime warrant
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT

A 36-year-old man wanted on an $8 million

warrant for allegedly sexually assaulting a
minor, surrendered to the U.S. Marshals
Service in Mexico Tuesday and will be transported to San Mateo County to stand trial,
according to Pacifica police.
Pedro Diaz Morales is facing 60 counts of
sexual abuse that he allegedly committed
against a girl who was under 14 years old over
the course of a year, according to police.
Obtaining an $8 million warrant is very
rare, so it just speaks to the importance of the
case and the egregious nature of the violation
and assault, said Pacifica police Capt. Joe
Spanheimer. The department began investigating Morales in June before Pacifica investigators took the case over due to its complexity. It was discovered that Morales had
sexually assaulted the minor victim, whom he
knew through one of her relatives,
Spanheimer said. The alleged assaults
occurred at a Pacifica residence roughly the
year prior to when the investigation began,
Spanheimer said. Police worked with the San

Mateo County District

Attorneys Office to
obtain the $8 million warrant for his arrest. But during the investigation,
detectives
discovered
Morales had fled the
United States and possibly returned to the state of
Chiapas, in his native
Pedro Morales country Mexico, according to police.
Investigators then began working with the
U.S. Marshals Service and Mexican law
enforcement to locate and apprehend
Morales, according to police. On Tuesday,
Sept. 20, Morales surrendered to law enforcement and was taken into custody on the
Tijuana, Mexico, border, according to police.
The Pacifica Police Department is working
to arrange Morales transportation back to
San Mateo County and Spanheimer said
police are hoping Morales will answer questions. The investigation is ongoing, however, police do not currently believe there are
any unidentified victims, he said.

Woman pleads
guilty to animal cruelty

Local briefs

A 65-year-old Burlingame dog sitter

pleaded guilty Wednesday to a misdemeanor
animal cruelty charge,
according to the San
Mateo County District
Attorneys Office.
Linda Joy Levac was
allegedly
seen
and
recorded on video by a
neighbor in the backyard
of her Burlingame home
Linda Levac grabbing a dog by its
collar, lifting it in the air
and slamming it to the ground multiple
times back in July 2015, prosecutors said.
When Levac lifted the dog, named Frisco,
it was apparently choking and when she
slammed it to the ground it yelped in pain,
according to prosecutors.
Peninsula Humane Society & SPCA investigators went to Levacs home on Aug. 5,
2015, and seized 10 dogs and also determined Levac was running an unlicensed dog
boarding business, prosecutors said.
Levac was admitted to two years of court

probation and ordered to serve five days in

jail. She may perform 40 hours of public
service work in lieu of jail time because of
her poor health, according to prosecutors.
She must pay $1,280 in restitution to the
Peninsula Humane Society, submit to search
and seizure and attend animal abuse counseling, of which she has already completed
three months, according to prosecutors.
The court permits PHS to monitor Levacs
own two dogs for two years. She may not
operate any business that involves the care
of animals, unless fully licensed by
Burlingame and San Mateo County, according to prosecutors.

A family was held at gunpoint by four suspects who took money and items from their
home early Wednesday morning in Pacifica,
police said.
Officers were dispatched at 1:21 a.m. to

of the robbery.
Officers discovered that four male suspects forced themselves into the home, held

Police said the suspects were in their 20s
and wearing masks and dark clothing. They
reportedly left the area in a dark-colored

Police say four men held at pot

farm in California, forced to work
By Krtistin J. Bender
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO Two women have

been arrested on charges of holding four
brothers captive at an illegal marijuana
farm in Northern California and forcing
them to work there for six months, police
said Wednesday.
The men told police they ran away in July
from the secluded pot-growing operation in
the small Sierra Nevada foothills town of
West Point after overhearing they would be
killed once all the marijuana was harvested,
Calaveras County Sheriffs Capt. Jim
Macedo said.
Two other men, including the brothers
nephew, are being sought by authorities
from the small, impoverished county undergoing a dramatic transformation because of
marijuana cultivation.
The traditionally politically conservative board of supervisors on May 10 made it
legal for farmers to grow commercial
amounts of medicinal marijuana. The legislation was seen as a way to help the county
recover from a devastating wildfire that
charred 26 square miles, killing two people
and destroying 860 homes in September
2015. The county itself raised $3 million
after receiving 700 applications for farming permits, which cost $5,000 each.
The cultivation law was passed over the
objection of the sheriff and district attorney, who said the remote county was
already overrun with too many illicit pot
farms and warned of an influx of unsavory

Guadalupe Arellano and Medarda Urbieta

outsiders.
Authorities said they destroyed 23,000
plants worth up to $60 million found on
July 28 at the forested compound where the
brothers worked. The two women were
arrested Sept. 14 in Modesto and charged
with human trafficking, kidnapping, battery with serious bodily injury, terrorist
threats and drug charges.
Weve seen an increase in violence, theft
and greed related to marijuana trafficking,
and this appears to be an organized, violent
group, Macedo said.
Neither Guadalupe Sierra Arellano, 43,
nor Medarda Urbieta, 44, entered pleas during a court appearance in San Andreas,
California. Macedo said the two women are
suspected of living in the United States
without proper documentation.
Macedo said investigators are looking
into whether suspects have ties to any
Mexican drug cartels. Authorities said they
found a religious shrine popular among
Mexican drug traffickers and cartels during a
search of a Modesto home in connection
with the case.

Court sides with U.S. Forest

Service over bottled water permit
SAN BERNARDINO A federal judge has
ruled against environmentalists who sued
the U.S. Forest Service claiming the agency
was letting Nestle pipe water out of the San
Bernardino National Forest on an expired
permit.
U. S. District Judge Jesus Bernal said
Tuesday that the permit by Nestle Waters
North America is still valid.
The Center for Biological Diversity and
others sued last year to halt the piping of
water on federal land unless a new permit is
obtained. The groups claimed the practice
and ongoing drought were affecting birds
and other wildlife.
Environmentalists say they are disappointed with the ruling.

California governor signs

Brown announced Wednesday hes signed

The legislation wont end the controversy
at Yosemite but is aimed at preventing a
similar dispute at state-run parks. The bill
would also disqualify future bids by a vendor

SACRAMENTO Janitors, food service

say on the CSUs governing board.
Gov. Jerry Brown announced Wednesday
that he vetoed legislation to require one of
the governors 16 appointments to the
California State University Board of Trustees
be a permanent non-faculty member.
Brown says hes not convinced its necessary to constrain the governors appointment process.
The Democratic governor instead suggests
in a veto message that board trustees and
CSU chancellor find ways to include nonfaculty members in policy discussions.

Betty Shelby, who shot dead Terence Crutcher, in Tulsa, Okla.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

TULSA, Okla. An unarmed

black man shot dead in the middle
of a street by a white Oklahoma
police officer had run-ins with the
law dating back to his teenage
years and recently served four
years in prison.
But those closest to Terence
Crutcher described him as a
church-going father who was starting to turn his life around. After
marking his 40th birthday with
his twin sister last month,
Crutcher sent her a text that read,
Im gonna show you, Im gonna
make you all proud.
Crutcher was due to start a
music appreciation class at a
local community college Friday,
the day Tulsa police officer Betty
Shelby fatally shot him outside

his abandoned SUV.

The shooting was captured by a
police helicopter and a cruiser dashcam, though its not clear from the
footage what led Shelby to draw her
gun or what orders officers gave
Crutcher. An attorney for Crutchers
family said Crutcher committed no
crime and gave officers no reason to
shoot. Shelby was put on paid
administrative leave.
Crutcher had been arrested in the
past. In 1995 in nearby Osage
County, officers said they saw him
fire a weapon out a vehicle window. Records show Crutcher was
ordered to exit the vehicle for a
pat-down search and began making a movement to his right ankle
before an officer managed to get
control of him. A .25-caliber pistol was found in his right sock,
according to an affidavit.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. Authorities in

Charlotte tried to quell public anger
Wednesday after a police officer shot a black
man, but a dusk prayer vigil turned into a
march that ended with a protester critically
wounded by gunfire and the governor declared
a state of emergency in the city.
The man was not shot by police who had
massed in riot gear to keep the marchers outside an upscale downtown hotel, Charlotte
officials announced on Twitter. City officials
originally announced the man was dead but
later reversed that statement and said he was
on life support.
The second night of violent protests added
Charlotte to the list of U.S. cities that have
erupted in violence over the death of a black
man at the hands of police.
With officials refusing to release any video
of the Tuesday shooting of 43-year-old Keith
Lamont Scott, anger built as two starkly different versions emerged: Police say Scott disregarded repeated demands to drop his gun,
while neighborhood residents say he was
holding a book, not a weapon, as he waited
for his son to get off the school bus.
The killing inflamed racial tensions in a
city that seemed to have steered clear of the
troubles that engulfed other places.

They shouted black lives matter and

Charlottes flashy and vibrant downtown. As
the protesters approached the Omni hotel,
officers in riot gear lined up outside arm in

Immediately after the shooting, police

Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe

its fifth nuclear test in defiance of repeated
Security Council resolutions intended to
constrain its weapons development.
Abe said North Korea this year fired three

unity in the Security Council to confront
the North Korean threat.
We must concentrate our strengths and

pulled from the water.
Egypts official news agency MENA said
the boat was carrying 600 people when it
sank near the coast, some 180 kilometers
(112 miles) north of the capital, Cairo.
Osman said the boat had likely come from

U.S., Russia abandon

diplomatic niceties
in testy Syria debate
By Bradley Klapper
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

UNITED NATIONS The United States and Russia abandoned diplomatic niceties Wednesday in a fractious public
debate over Syria, blaming each other for spoiling the
countrys cease-fire and offering only temporary patches to
stem the bloodshed. Secretary of State John Kerry called for
all warplanes to halt flights over aid routes, while Russias
chief diplomat spoke of a possible three-day pause in fighting.
In a U.N. Security Council session originally envisioned
to enshrine Syrias Sept. 9 truce, world powers rued the possibility of a darker phase in the conflict amid increased
attacks on humanitarian workers. The councils nations all
sought to revive the U.S.-Russian cease-fire deal, but once
again illustrated why theyve been unable for more than
five years to stop Syrias civil war.
Supposedly we all want the same goal. Ive heard that
again and again, a visibly angry Kerry told the council.
Everybody sits there and says we want a united Syria, secular, respecting the rights of all people, in which the people of Syria can choose their leadership. But we are proving
woefully inadequate in our ability to be able to get to the
table and have that conversation and make it happen.
While the U.S. and Russia have previously butted heads
over several proposed resolutions critical of the Syrian
government, Wednesdays agenda didnt even include a suggested course of action. Instead, the two-hour discussion
served as a warm-up act for a Thursday meeting blocks away
in New York that will include Kerry, Russian Foreign
Minister Sergey Lavrov and their counterparts from more
than a dozen European and Arab countries.
Kerry blamed Russia, lambasting what he portrayed as a
cynical response to an airstrike on a humanitarian aid convoy this week that killed 20 civilians and raised profound
doubt about Russia and Syrias willingness to abide by the
cease-fire. The U.S. believes with very high degree of confidence that a Russian-piloted aircraft carried out the strike,
said a senior American official, who wasnt authorized to
speak publicly on the matter and demanded anonymity.

Airstrike hits medics in Syria

as U.N. moves to resume aid
By Philip Issa
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BEIRUT An airstrike in northern

Syria killed four medics responding to
an earlier bombing raid, a relief group
said Wednesday, as the U. N.
announced it would resume aid deliveries suspended after an attack on a convoy two days ago that killed 20 people.
The escalation of violence against
humanitarian workers has all but
destroyed a cease-fire that took effect
on September 12, and has stoked tensions between the truces architects,
the U.S. and Russia, which have traded blame for running it into the
ground.
The U.N said convoys to priority

areas would be resumed, with deliveries planned as early as Thursday. Our

obligation to civilians on all sides is
to go where and when we can with
relief, said Jan Egeland, a senior
U.N. humanitarian official focused on
Syria. We hope to resume convoys
tomorrow and Friday, but still work on
security guarantees.
But air raids continued in other parts
of Syria, with activists reporting at
least 23 civilians killed in the
besieged parts of Aleppo city and the
nearby rebel-held Idlib province.
The attack that killed the medics
took place shortly after they arrived at
the scene of an airstrike in the rebelheld town of Khan Touman on Tuesday.
As the medics deployed, planes circled
around and struck the area again, Dr.

Oubaida Al Moufti, vice president of

the International Union of Medical
Care and Relief Organizations, said.
Al-Moufti initially said that five
medics were killed. The group later
said two nurses and two ambulance
drivers were killed, while a third nurse
remains in critical condition.
Syrian government forces have
been accused of carrying out double
tap attacks throughout the 5-1/2 year
war, placing paramedics and rescue
workers in peril.
The
Britain-based
Syrian
Observatory for Human Rights said
nine militants, some of them belonging to the Fatah al-Sham Front, an alQaida-linked group previously known
as the Nusra Front, were also killed in
the double tap attack.

Stocks jump after Fed leaves interest rates alone

By Marley Jay

DOW JONES INDUSTRIALS

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK U. S. stocks

climbed Wednesday as investors
were relieved that the Federal
Reserve once again left interest
rates unchanged. That sent dividend-paying stocks higher, while
energy companies jumped with
the price of oil.
Stocks made a big gain after the
Feds decision, which ended about
weeks of confusion for investors.
With the central bank confirming
that it will raise interest rates
slowly, bond yields dropped and
utility and phone companies rose.
The price of oil rose after the U.S.
government said energy stockpiles shrank last week.
In the last two weeks, a few Fed
leaders gave differing opinions on
whether the central bank should
raise interest rates now. That surprised investors, and stocks gyrated for a few days before settling
down to tiny moves this week.

Oil prices jumped as fuel stockpiles shrank and investors hoped
that supply gluts are easing,
which would allow prices to rise.

The
Energy
Information
Administration said oil inventories dropped by 6.2 million barrels and gasoline inventories
decreased by 2.5 million barrels
last week.
S&P Global Platts says analysts
expected oil inventories to grow
and gasoline stockpiles to shrink

by a smaller amount.
Benchmark U. S. crude added
$1.29, or 2.9 percent, to $45.34 a

used to price international oils,
rose 95 cents, or 2.1 percent, to
$46.83 a barrel in London. That
helped energy companies, and
Anadarko Petroleum rose $2.78,
or 4.8 percent, to $61.06 while
Chevron added $1.93, or 2 percent, to $99.63.
The Federal Reserve said the
economy has gotten a bit stronger
after some shaky results in the
spring, and that the argument for
raising interest rates has also gotten stronger. However the central
bank said it wants to see more
improvement in the job market
before raising rates.
The Fed raised interest rates in
December and hasnt made another
move since. The benchmark interest rate was cut to zero in late 2008
and at its current pace it will take
many years for rates to get back to
pre-financial crisis levels.

Fed keeps key rate unchanged but hints of coming hike

By Martin Crutsinger
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON The Federal

Reserve is keeping its key interest rate unchanged but signaling
that it will likely raise rates
before years end.
The Fed said in a statement ending its latest policy meeting
Wednesday that the U.S. job market has continued to strengthen

and economic activity has picked

up. But it noted that business
investment remains soft and
inflation too low and that it
wants to see further improvement
in the job market.
The central bank characterized
the near-term risks to its economic outlook as roughly balanced.
It was the first time it has used
that wording since late last year,
when it most recently raised
rates. Most analysts have said

Yelp wants the Supreme Court to overturn
the ruling, saying that if its allowed to
stand, it will open the door for businesses to
force the company to remove critical
reviews.
Dawn Hassell, the law firms managing

is exaggerating the stakes of her legal
effort. She says it aims only to remove from
Yelp lies by a former client that a judge

Your TV may use more energy
than you think, group charges
SAN FRANCISCO An environmental
group accused three major television manufacturers Wednesday of misleading consumers and regulators about how much
energy their high-definition screens
devour by designing them to draw less
power during government testing than in
ordinary use.
The Natural Resources Defense Council
concluded that the TVs made by Samsung,
LG Electronics and Vizio saddle households
with an extra $120 million in electricity
bills each year and generate tons of additional pollution.
The added expense works out to about
$10 to $20 per household annually over
the anticipated decade-long life of the typical widescreen TV.
Both Samsung and LG Electronics disputed the findings.

Zuckerberg, Chan pledge

$3 billion to end disease
By Barbara Ortutay
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO Facebook CEO Mark

Zuckerberg has a goal thats even more
ambitious than connecting the entire world
to the internet: He and his wife want to help
eradicate all disease by the end of this century.
Zuckerberg and Priscilla Chan are committing $3 billion over the next 10 years to
accelerate basic scientific research. That
includes creating research tools from
software to hardware to yet-undiscovered
techniques they hope will ultimately lead
to scientific breakthroughs, the way the
microscope and DNA sequencing have in
generations past.
The goal is to cure, prevent or manage all
disease in the next 80 or so years, a timeframe the 30-something couple are unlikely
to live to see. They acknowledge that this
might sound crazy, but point to how far med-

icine and science have come in the last century with vaccines, statins for heart disease, chemotherapy, and so on following
millennia with little progress.
At current rates of progress, Zuckerberg
reckons, it will be possible to solve most of
these problems by the end of this century.
Zuckerberg and Chan have spent the past
two years speaking to scientists and other
experts to plan the endeavor. In an interview, Zuckerberg emphasized that this
isnt something where we just read a book
and decided were going to do.
Through their philanthropic organization, the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative, the
commitment includes $600 million to fund
a new research center in San Francisco where
scientific and medical researchers will work
alongside engineers on projects spanning
years or even decades. The goal is not to
focus narrowly on specific ailments, such as
bone cancer or Parkinsons disease, but
rather to do basic research.

persuade customers to open more accounts
not for any bonuses, but simply to keep
their jobs.
Even in an industry known for performance
demands, the sales goals were unprecedented.
Employees described a near-obsessive focus
from managers on a daily or even hourly
basis about whether they were meeting the
targets. The selling pressure was even put on
tellers at the lowest employment levels of

the bank, employees said.

Its no surprise that Wells executives
called each location a store rather than a
bank branch.
Every single day the first question out of
my manager was, how many appointments
did I have today? How am I going to meet my
goals? said Mikey McGinn, who worked
for Wells Fargo as a teller and a banker from
2007 until July of this year.
Wells Fargos operations are under scrutiny since it agreed to pay $185 million to
federal and local authorities to settle allegations that bankers striving to meet the targets opened credit card and bank accounts,
moved money between them and even created fake email addresses to sign people up for
online banking all without customer
authorization.

be a wild ride

If you want to know who will win

the Peninsula Athletic Leagues Bay
Division boys water polo title,
check to see who won the Menlo
School-Menlo-Atherton match.
After dominating the PAL by winning 19 straight league titles, Menlo
Schools aura was broken by M-A in
2012. Since then, the two teams have
traded PAL crowns, with the winner of
their annual meeting determining the
leagues champ.
Thursday, the two teams met at
Spieker Aquatic Center on the M-A
campus and Menlo, the defending
Bay Division champion, proved its
still the team to beat after downing
the Bears 9-5.
Our focus wasnt to win this game.
Our goal is to be the absolute best
we can be, said Menlo coach Jack
Bowen.
So far, so good for the Knights,
who remained unbeaten on the season, improving to 2-0 in PAL Bay
Division play and 11-0 overall.
Thursdays match seemed to have a
entire games worth of action in each
quarter. The opening seven minutes
was a defensive battle. The second
period belonged to the Knights,
while M-A dominated the third. In the
fourth, Menlo simply tried to milk
the clock as much as possible as the
Bears tried to get back into the game.
I thought we played pretty well,
said M-A coach Brandon Johnson.
[Menlo has] a lot of guys who put
the ball away.
In the opening seven minutes,
however, neither team managed to put
the ball away with any consistency as
the defenses and especially the
goaltenders made it difcult for
either team to get clean looks at the
cage.

he Peninsula Athletic League tennis season is only three weeks old

and the PAL singles tournament is
still about six weeks away, but has the
depth of top players been any deeper?
Probably not, said Burlingame coach
Bill Smith, the longest tenured tennis
coach in the PAL. The kids at the No. 1
spots are all playing
(junior USTA tennis
tournaments).
It seems five of the
eight teams in the
Bay Division have a
top-level No. 1 singles player, who, if
they decide to play
in the singles tournament, have a good
shot at capturing the
PAL title and even
making noise in the
Central Coast
Section tournament.
Menlo-Atherton, the cream of the PAL
crop, has a pair of players who are contenders for the crown. No. 1 singles player Lanie Van Linge, a junior and the
defending PAL champ, is favored to
repeat. If not for Van Linge, her teammate
and the Bears No. 2 singles player, Julia
Marks, would be a favorite. Marks, also a
junior, teamed with Yvette Leung to take
the leagues doubles crown last season.
Burlingame junior Halle Martinucci,
the Panthers No. 1, lost to Van Linge in
the 2015 final and, according to her
coach, has gotten better this season. San
Mateos Ksenia Vasilyev, who sat out the
first month of the 2015 campaign after
transferring from Burlingame, has
emerged to become the player with the
best shot of knocking off Van Linge.
Aragons Diana Gong, yet another junior,
definitely has the game to beat anyone in
the PAL on any given day. Carlmonts

Fresher Murray helps run Struggling Seahawks

game get off to fast start not being taken lightly

By Josh Dubow

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ALAMEDA Even though Latavius

Murray is getting the ball less for the
Oakland Raiders, hes doing much more
when he has it.
With the Raiders finally giving him needed support in the backfield with rookies Jalen
Richard and DeAndre
Washington and fortifying the line with Kelechi
Osemele, Murray is off to
a fast start this season.
Im not in there as
much, so it definitely is
less taxing on my body. I
Latavius Murry feel a little fresher, he
said. Regardless of
when I go in there and how many times I go
in there I just have to do what I have to do.
While Murray has seen his playing time
drop a bit this season, his production has
been stellar. He is averaging 5.3 yards per
carry with two touchdowns and has gained
86.5 yards from scrimmage per game.
That has helped fuel a productive running

game with Richard adding a 75-yard touchdown run in the opener and Washington
added 46 yards on six carries last week. In
all, the Raiders have rushed for 322 yards in
two games and are averaging 6.3 yards per
carry.
I love handing that ball off and all of the
sudden you just see them going, quarterback Derek Carr said. I remember, my rookie year for whatever reason, that wasnt the
case. Its gotten a little better and then this
year its taken off here in the first two
games.
While Murray had some success last year
when he ran for 1,066 yards and made the
Pro Bowl as an alternate, he appeared to tire
as games and the season went on with
Oakland having no capable backup tailbacks.
Murray averaged just 2.2 yards per carry in
the fourth quarter and his production plummeted after the first half of the season. He
averaged 4.8 yards per carry the first eight
games, compared to 3.3 the final eight.
I told him when we had all of these running backs start to play well in training

SANTA CLARA The 49ers havent won a

game at CenturyLink Field since 2011.
A lot has happened in the five seasons
since. San Francisco (1-1) has gone through a
pair of coaches and three starting quarterbacks, while the Seahawks (1-1) have
remained stable as one of the premier teams in
the NFC and played in two straight Super
Bowls before last season.
However, Pete Carrolls team is coming off
a 9-3 loss to the Los Angeles Rams, compounding a poor offensive showing in the
season-opening win against the Dolphins,
which required a last-minute touchdown to
secure the victory.
Seattles offense scored 15 points over its
first two games, the second-fewest in the NFL.
On Sunday, the underdog 49ers hope to take
advantage of those early struggles.
We havent been up to the standards that
weve set, Carroll said of his offense in a conference call. We expected to pick up where we
left off and we didnt get off to a very good
start in those two games. So we know where
were going with it, we know what we want to

do, we just got to make it

happen.
With star running back
Marshawn Lynch retired,
quarterback
Russell
Wilson dealing with an
ankle injury and a bangedup offensive line, the
Seahawks have struggled
Pete Carroll to replicate their success
from the second half of
2015 when they averaged 32 points per game.
On the other hand, San Franciscos struggling passing attack faces a Seattle defense
that hasnt allowed more than 17 points to
their division foe in the regular season since
2010.
That was before cornerback Richard
Sherman and safeties Kam Chancellor and Earl
Thomas formed one of the best defensive trios
in the NFL. The defense is tops in both
yardage and scoring
I think the Seahawks secondary is probably the best in the league right now, 49ers
coach Chip Kelly said. They try to dictate to

who was known as, The Wall. Bonchristiano was nearly as
unbeatable, stopping ve of six M-A shots on frame. He nished
with 14 saves for the match.
M-A goaltender Noah Smith was equal to the task. He also
allowed only one goal on nine Knights shots. Smith ended the
game with 15 stops.
Both teams were scoreless until there were less than two minutes left in the opening period, when Menlo nally broke the seal
on Scott Littles goal off a Ben Wagner assist with 1:53 left to
play in the rst period.
M-A, however, went into the second quarter tied at 1 following
Ilia Dzotsenidze goal from the hole set off an assist from Cooper
Gran with 17 seconds left in the opening quarter.
In addition to the stellar goalkeeping, Bowen chalked up a lot
of the offensive struggles to the Bears presenting an offense the
Knights were not prepared for.
M-A did some thing I havent seen in a while, Bowen said.
We needed the quarter break to say theyre doing this and this on
defense. Our team was able to react.
The Knights went out and dominated the second period, scoring
four unanswered goals to lead 5-1 at halftime. Menlo took the lead
for good less than a minute into stanza, when Niko Bhatia drove
to the goal and received a perfect pass from Little and buried his
shot to put the Knights up 2-1.
The hookup between Little and Bhatia showcased the Knights
passing prowess that was on display all match long. Nearly every
pass was right where it needed to be, in a position that found the
receiver of the pass in an attacking position.
Last week we won the CCS-NCS tournament and I gave
them a B on passing, Bowen said. We spent a lot of time
working [on our passing].
Menlo went up 3-1 on a Wagner strike off a pass from Bhatia,
before getting goals from Sam Untrecht and Bhatia over the nal
two minutes of the second period.
In the third, however, M-A ipped the script. Suddenly, it was
the Bears who were smothering the Knights defensively, while
on offense, M-A scored on its rst three shots of the quarter.
We got a little lost defensively (in the second quarter),
Johnson said.
The Bears started getting passes into the hole set and that
opened up the rest of their offense. The Bears scored on a manadvantage from Dzotsenidze to cut M-As decit to 5-2, but Menlo
responded with a Untrechts second goal of the game.
The Knights increased their lead to four, 7-3, on a Wagner goal
off an assist from Untrecht, but M-A got it back less than 20 seconds later on a Hugo McMillan strike.
Untrecht scored his third goal of the match to put the Knights
up 8-4, but a goal from M-As Nikolas Caryotakis pulled the Bears
to 8-5 going into the nal quarter.
Unfortunately for M-A, it would get no closer. Menlo got an
insurance goal from Bhatia, off an assist from Untrecht, as the
Knights clamped down defensively on the Bears for the nal
seven minutes.

Astros 6, As 5

By Gideon Rubin
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

OAKLAND Daniel Mengden threw the pitch exactly

where he wanted. Where it wound up not what the Oakland
rookie wanted.
Evan Gattis homered twice, catcher Jason Castro threw out
a runner to end the game and the contending Houston Astros
beat the Athletics 6-5 Wednesday to finish off a sweep.
The Astros began the day two games behind Baltimore for
the second AL wild-card spot.
Gattis reached 30 homers. He hit a two-run drive in the
sixth off Mengden (2-8) for a 4-1 lead and connected again
in the eighth.
Gattis tagged a 1-2 curveball at his knees on the outer part
of the plate, highlighting a three-run inning that gave the
Astros a 4-1 lead.
I thought I made a pretty good pitch but he made a pretty
good swing and it went out, Mengden said.
Gattis first homer on the day followed Carlos Correas
run-scoring double.
I think the one bad pitch (Mengden) made was the twostrike pitch to Correa, As manager Bob Melvin said. The
pitch to Gattis was a good pitch, it was almost on the
ground. You have to give Gattis credit there.
Oakland scored on second baseman Jose Altuves fielding
error with two outs in the ninth inning to pull within 6-5.
Castro then threw out pinch runner Arismendy Alcantara trying to steal second, and the call was upheld on a replay

review.
That replay on the stolen base was a tough one, Melvin
said. (Astros reliever Luke Gregerson) is a pretty easy guy
to steal on for the most part. I dont think (Arismendy) got
his best jump on that one but thats what hes in there for and
Castro made a good throw.
There are a lot of plays in this game that were just a couple of inches one way or the other and if we get them were
probably talking about a different game right now, but we
didnt and they won the game, he said.
Collin McHugh (12-10) won his fifth straight decision,
allowing two runs and six hits over 5 2-3 innings. Five
relievers combined to record the final 10 outs, with
Gregerson retiring three batters for his 15th save.
Carlos Correa had two hits, including an RBI double, and
Altuve singled twice and scored a run. Gattis homered for
third time in three days to complete the three-game sweep.
The Astros scored their first run without a hit in the fifth
inning and added three more in the sixth.
Altuve, the ALs leading hitter, had a one-out single and
scored the go-ahead run on Correas double. Gattis followed
with a home run.
Gattis homer in the eighth was a towering shot that hit off
the fagade underneath the luxury suites in center field.
Danny Valencia singled and scored twice for the As.
Oakland has lost the first three games on its final homestand
after an impressive 6-1 road trip.

Dodgers hammer Giants

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LOS ANGELES Yasiel Puigs three-run homer highlighted a five-run first inning and the Los Angeles Dodgers routed the San Francisco Giants 9-3 on Wednesday night,
extending their NL West lead to six games with 10 remaining.
The Dodgers pounded out 12 hits in taking two of three
from the rival Giants, who remained tied in the NL wild-card
race after both the Mets and Cardinals lost earlier. The
Dodgers conclude the regular season with three games at
San Francisco next week.
Kenta Maeda (16-9) allowed two runs and three hits in
five innings while improving to 4-0 against the Giants
this season. The right-hander struck out six and walked one
in making his 30th start of the season for just the second
time in his career. Maeda is one win from tying Rick
Sutcliffes record by a rookie set in 1979.
Matt Moore (11-12) gave up six runs and seven hits in
one inning, walked one and struck out none in a messy outing for the left-hander who had pitched exceptionally well
at Dodger Stadium.
He was one out away from throwing his first career nohitter on Aug. 25 in Los Angeles when Corey Seager broke
it up with a single. Moore previously held the Dodgers to
just one unearned run in 15 1/3 innings.
After winning Mondays opener 2-1 in the ninth inning,

Dodgers 9, Giants 3
the Dodgers lost Tuesdays game 2-0.
This one wasnt close after the first.
The Dodgers took a 5-1 lead in the bottom of that inning
on Puigs 11th homer and RBI singles by Adrian Gonzalez
and Maeda.
They made it 6-2 in the second on Justin Turners sacrifice
fly. Howie Kendrick doubled in two more runs with two outs
in the third. The Dodgers added another run on pinch-hitter
Andrew Toles RBI double in the sixth.
The Giants runs came on Angel Pagans RBI single in the
first, Ehire Adrianzas homer in the second and Brandon
Belts RBI single in the sixth.

Visiting Vin
Bochy visited retiring Dodgers broadcaster Vin Scully
before the game, joining a long list of opposing managers
and players whove done so this season. They chatted in
Scullys fifth-floor booth, where Bochy said he could see
where he does his magic.
I was telling him all the memories that go through my
head, the manager said. Ive been coming to the ballpark
for 21 years; hes been here 67 years. Hes an incredible
man who has done so much for the game.

Sports brief
Ivy proposes clamping down
on early recruiting of athletes
The Ivy League has proposed tightening
NCAA rules to prevent coaches from recruiting high school athletes before their junior
years.
The NCAA already has rules against coaches making early contact with prospective
athletes pre-junior year, but holes in the regulations have accelerated the recruiting
process and led to nonbinding scholarship
offers, contact during camps and unofficial
campus visits.
Under the Ivys proposal, coaches would
not be allowed to make verbal offers of
financial aid or provide support in the
admission process before the prospective
athletes junior year. Coaches would be prohibited from initiating or receiving telephone calls, planning unofficial visits and
having recruiting conversations at camps
and clinics before the start of a high school
athletes junior year.
The proposal will be considered for legislation by NCAA membership in January.

High school brief

Survey: Participation in prep
football increases in 2015-16
High school football participation slightly increased during the
previous school year.
According to the National
Federation of State High School
Associations , the total number of
athletes taking part in 11-player
football in 2015-16 increased by
80 to 1,085,272. The increase can
be attributed to more girls participating. This past year, a record
1,964 played football, which was
up from 1,565 the year before.
Thirty-two states had girls participating in football. California
had the most with 333 followed by
Ohio (245), Texas (178), Arizona
(115) and Colorado (109).
There were 24 states that reported increased boys participation.
From 2013 to 2014, there was a
decline of nearly 10,000 boys who
played football.
NFHS Executive Director Bob
Gardner said he was encouraged
over the slight increase and credited the adoption of state laws and
protocols for concussion management.
Flag football is booming, with
an 18 percent increase to 12,093.
The sport has been extremely popular with girls but there were 69
schools that had offered the sport
to boys last year, which was more
than double the 32 one year earlier.
Overall participation in high
school sports reached an all-time
high of 7,868,900, an increase of
61,853 from the previous year.
Girls participation increased for
the 27th straight year and set an
all-time high of 3,324,326.

Laettner and some partners helped develop Durhams West Village, a mix of apartments and commercial space, and it was sold

Sherman: Protests message getting lost

By Tim Booth

together to make people

aware that this is not
right. Its not right for
people to get killed in
the street.
Sherman did not take
questions during his
media
availability.
Instead, he walked to the
podium, said a few words
Richard
about this weeks oppoSherman
nent San Francisco and
then gave a two-minute statement about
what players have wanted to accomplish.
Shermans message came after a pair of
police shootings this week, one in
Charlotte, North Carolina, another in
Tulsa, Oklahoma.
I do a lot of community service. I go out
there and try to help kids and try to encour-

age them to be better and to aspire to more,

he said. And when you tell a kid, When
youre dealing with police, just put your
hands up and comply with everything, and
theres still a chance of them getting shot
and no repercussions for anyone, thats an
unfortunate time to be living. Thats an
unfortunate place to be in.
Shermans statement came as the
Seahawks are preparing to face San
Francisco on Sunday. Teammate Doug
Baldwin told reporters in the Bay Area that
members of the Seahawks have had extensive conversations with Colin Kaepernick,
who started the conversation with his decision to first sit and then kneel during the
national anthem.
Its not just the NFL landscape. Its
across the country right now, Baldwin
said. Obviously, we wouldnt be having

this conversation if it wasnt for him bringing it to light. He stood on the table and
shouted and got everybodys attention. And
now we have to work on the follow through
collectively.
While Kapenerick and other players have
chosen to kneel or raise fists during the
anthem, the Seahawks have stood with
coaches and players interlocking arms for
the first two weeks of the season. Seattle
defensive back Jeremy Lane sat during the
final preseason game in Oakland but has
stood with his teammates the past two
weeks.
When a guy takes a knee, you can ignore
it. You can say hes not being patriotic, hes
not honoring the flag, Sherman said. Im
doing none of those things. Im saying it
straight up. This is wrong and we need to do
something.

percent broken tackle rate far exceeds his

mark a year ago when he did it just 12.7 percent of the time.
One of those came in the opener when
Murray bulled over New Orleans James
Laurinaitis for a touchdown run that prompted Carr to call him Angry Tay. That has
been part of a concerted effort Murray has
made to be more physical in hopes of turning negative plays into positive gainers.
This year Im just making sure I use my
size to my advantage, breaking tackles trying to run through guys, he said. When
that ball is in my hands, whoever is on the
other side of the ball becomes the victim of
angry Tay.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

RENTON, Wash. Seattle Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman said Wednesday

the public isnt listening to the message
NFL players are trying to send with their
actions during the national anthem.
While some fans are obsessing about
whether players take a knee, raise a fist or
lock arms during the national anthem
before games, Sherman said they should be
talking about the reasons why players are
protesting.
More videos have come out of guys getting killed, and I think people are still
missing the point, Sherman said. The reason these guys are kneeling, the reason
were locking arms is to bring people

your offensive on how youre going to play

based upon how they play. Theyve got a great
scheme that those guys have been in for a long
time. They are very comfortable in that
scheme.
Kelly indicated this week that the 49ers arent
quite comfortable in his new offense.
Quarterback Blaine Gabbert completed 47 percent of his passes with two fourth-quarter interceptions in a 46-27 loss to Carolina last week.
San Francisco had a stretch of six posses-

Theres a lot thats involved in all of that and

I think being good in the passing game on the
offensive side of the ball takes all 11 guys,
Kelly said. It doesnt just take a quarterback
thats an accurate guy because if you cant protect him hes not going to be very accurate. Or,
if your receivers and the quarterback arent on
the same page, youre not going to be very
accurate.

camp wed sit back there and watch and I

said, Man, thats the best thing that ever
happened for you, Carr said. He would just
laugh because as a competitor he wants
every rep. But I said, Man, just remember
thats the best thing that happened to you.
Because every ball he gets hes going to be
100 percent fresh.
Murray has broken nine tackles already
this season on his 29 offensive touches,

Rome mayor nixes 2024 Olympic bid: This city is unlivable

By Andrew Dampf
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

REUTERS

Romes new mayor Virginia Raggi talks during a news conference in Rome Italy.

ROME Irresponsible, unsustainable

and unaffordable.
Refusing to put up with more debt in a
city besieged by corruption and poor public services, Mayor Virginia Raggi rejected
Romes bid for the 2024 Olympics on
Wednesday, effectively dooming the capitals candidacy for the second time in four
years.
This city is unlivable, Raggi said in a
news conference at city hall atop ancient
Capitoline Hill. We need to focus on that.
We have a much more ambitious project
for Rome than the one for the 2024
Games, Raggi added. We want to upgrade
the services, give back to citizens a city
that is as worthy as any other European
capital.
If approved by Romes city assembly,
Raggis motion to withdraw the bid would
leave only Los Angeles, Paris and
Budapest, Hungary, in the running for the

Weve lost all credibility, if we pull
out, Italian Olympic Committee president
Giovanni Malago said, ruling out an eventual bid for the 2028 Games, even from

people in Italy are not serious.
Raggi said it would be financially irresponsible to pursue the bid any further
given the city is barely able to get its trash
picked up. She highlighted the debts that
previous Olympic host cities have incurred
and the unfinished infrastructure already
blighting Rome from previous sporting
bids as reasons to justify the withdrawal.

Indoor plant displays: Built-ins, wall pockets and more

By Solvej Schou
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Imagine stepping into a bathtub, and

instead of bathroom tiles lining the wall
next to you, theres a fresh vertical garden,
lush with bright green ferns, lavender,
babys tears, mint and other fragrant plants.
San Francisco-based design studio Siol
created just that a few years ago for one
home.
Unusual ways to display indoor plants run
the gamut, from built-in shelves and containers in and along walls, countertops or
tables, to wall pockets and terrariums.
Decorating with plants is still one of the
easiest ways to make a home feel lived in
and relaxed, said James Augustus Baggett,
editor of Country Gardens magazine. There
are so many different ways that people can
incorporate plants into a homes design.
For that living green bathroom wall,
grow lights and a self-circulating drip water
system were built into the 10-by-10-foot
wall to promote indoor growth, said Siol
co-owner and principal Jessica Weigley,
38. Lavender plants added a spa-like dash of
aromatic beauty.
We were joking that you could pick the
lavender and put it into the bath with you,
Weigley said. Bringing nature indoors is
huge. It still requires care and attention, like
any other garden. Its just on your wall.
Of course, a full green wall is also incredibly pricy it can cost customers at least
$10,000, at about $100 to $200 per square
foot, Weigley said, because of its embedded
lighting and watering system.
A much cheaper indoor-garden alternative is pockets made of various materials
i n cl udi n g cerami c, g l as s , p l as t i c,
wood, metal and even macrame that
can hang directly on a wall and be filled
with plants, said Baggett. They can run

about $20 to $100 each.

Easy-to-care-for indoor plants include
snake plants also known as sansevierias
with long, pointy green leaves that reach
upward; dark green, cast iron plants; wallcrawling ivy; dangling spider plants; succulents, and foxtail ferns. Snake plants and
cast iron plants, especially, require little
light and watering. Bonsai trees, bay laurel
trees and small fig trees can also be displayed indoors in both planters and partitioned floor areas padded with soil and
rocks.
Those living in smaller homes can get
creative: Vertical gardening is the hottest
trend for not a lot of space, said Baggett.
Theres the floating shelf a shelf thats
just sticking out of the wall and the half
wall, a waist-high wall, with plants on top
of it. Recessed wall niches are also popular.
Miniature gardens, from terrariums
landscapes in glass containers to fairy
gardens, have caught on for both spaceconscious adults and fun-loving kids, he
said.
What are fairy gardens? Theyre small,
whimsical sceneries decorated with itsybitsy figurines, houses, moss, milkweed
pods, pine cones and tiny plants.
Kokedama, a Japanese plant art that
means moss ball in English, involves
forming a moss-covered ball of soil around
the roots of a plant and wrapping it with
twine. Suspending these moss balls as
hanging plants is also a trend, Baggett
added.
Those with a retro aesthetic can display
succulents and cacti in vintage tins and decorative pottery. Molded fiberglass bullet
planters, popular in the 1950s, have also
been making a comeback. The size of an ice
bucket, the planter is held aloft on a threepronged stand.

Nut trees deserve another look for gardens

By Dean Fosdick
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Nut trees make great additions to yards

and gardens. They provide multi-purpose
crops, have attractive blooms and can protect as wind buffers.
Yet fruit trees overshadow them in popularity.
What gives?
Perhaps this is due to fruits like apples,
cherries and pears being eaten more than
nuts, and more often, said Leonard Perry,
horticulture professor emeritus at the
University of Vermont. Perhaps this is
because most nut trees are large when
mature, not suited for the smaller landscapes now around many homes. Perhaps
this is because nuts dropping in the fall are
deemed messy and not suited to manicured
landscapes.
Yet if these arent homeowner concerns,
then nut trees provide excellent summer

shade, are generally low-maintenance and

provide food for wildlife, he said.
While there are scores of versatile nut
trees, the most commonly grown include
almonds, walnuts, pistachios, hazelnuts,
chest nuts, pecans, butternuts, macadamia
and hickory nuts.
Space is a major consideration when
planting nut trees. Give them plenty of
room to collect light and to avoid crowding
as they grow. That will boost the size of
your crop.
While some nut trees, like hazelnuts, can
be pruned to develop as shrubs, walnuts are
capable of attaining heights of 70 feet or
more.
In most cases, though, nut trees are easier
to manage than fruit and citrus trees, said
David Lockwood, a University of Tennessee
Extension specialist.
As a generalization, fewer insect and disease problems exist with nut trees, he said.
If proper attention is paid to selecting the

site and the right type and variety of tree,

relatively few pests exist that require pesticide applications.
Fruit trees, on the other hand, usually are
sprayed to produce attractive and vigorous
harvests.
Other things to consider concerning nut
trees:

CLIMATE
Some like it hot. That includes almonds,
macadamia and pistachio. Almond trees
bloom early and can lose their crops to
killing frosts in late spring.

SETTING
Most nut trees require well-drained soil
and full sun, although hazelnuts (also called
filberts) can tolerate shade. Disease-resistant chestnuts and many other nut-tree varieties develop well on side hills and rocky
meadows.

HARVEST AND STORAGE

Nuts can be stored longer than fruit. Some
nuts, like walnuts and chestnuts, are mature
when they fall to the ground. Gather them
up before they become moldy or rot. Others,
like hazelnuts, must be dried before eating.
Butternuts and walnuts require processing to
remove the outer hull.

VALUE-ADDED VERSATILITY
Nut trees can produce everything from
snacks to desserts, emergency food to furniture oils, textile dyes to timber.
They have a reputation for slow growth,
but production can be hastened by using
grafted trees rather than seedlings, said
Jerry Henkin, vice president of the New
York Nut Growers Association.
A seedling black walnut tree will bear in
12 years, as opposed to five years with a
grafted tree, he said.

POLICY

offered adequate guidance in best developing their own work schedule.

Throughout the approval process,
officials have made it clear that the district is not doing away with homework, but rather attempting to redefine
the meaning of learning away from the
classroom. Students will still be
expected to read daily in the evening
and math work may be assigned for
those who need additional work to
keep pace with their classmates.
Officials have said the amended policy is partially a response to the
increased access to resources such as
computers, smartphones and tablets
students can use to supplement classroom lessons, as well as develop a passion for learning in fields of their own
interest.
Generally officials would like to
encourage students to take the lead on
delving deeper into their own fascina-

tions, with the expectation such an

effort will help build an interest in a
wider field of subjects.
Students will also be encouraged to
spend out of school learning time on
activities that build character, knowledge and skills that may or may not be
addressed during school hours,
according to the policy. Examples
include practicing an instrument,
exploring different types of careers,
serving the community or participating in organized sports.
Baker has said he hopes the amended
policy will help emphasize the value
of students taking the necessary initiative to get the most our of their learning, rather than breeding a dependence
on teacher assignments.
Should a student begin to fall behind
though, room in the policy remains
for a teacher to assign additional lessons designed to help them keep pace
with the rest of their grade level.
In all, Baker said he believed the
policy will be helpful in meeting the
unique educational needs of each student.
Since we know that not all students
learn in the same way, at the same
pace, or even through the same kind of
learning environment, it is critical
that students receive assignments that
are tailored to their specific needs and
learning styles, he said.
The San Carlos Elementary School
District Board of Trustees meets 6:30
p.m. Thursday, Sept. 22, in the district
office, 1200 Industrial Road.

of time the county and bar association

need to give to terminate the contract
the recommendation was 12 months
and the board approved 24 months
notice, Farrales wrote in the email.
Supervisor Don Horsley told the
Daily Journal that the program should
remain independent.
We dont pick judges or the district
attorney and we shouldnt pick the
chief defender, Horsley said.
The lawyers who run the Private
Defender Program are good advocates
for the criminal defendants who rely
on the service, Horsley said.
Supervisors heard testimony in support of the PDP from Stanford Law
School professors Ronald Tyler and
Suzanne Luban. Others submitted letters of support for the PDP including
former judge Quentin Kopp and the
local branch of the National
Association for the Advancement of
Colored People, according to Eric
Liberman, managing attorney with the
private defender program.
Supervisors did approve a wide range
of recommendations from the

Controllers Office to bring greater

accountability to the program including:
Address the controllers findings of
poor internal controls, lack of documented financial policies and procedures and non-compliance with fee
schedules that led to incorrect payments;
Develop a PDP performance report
to prioritize goals and monitor results;
Make the list of PDP attorneys and
application process available to the
public and include client feedback in
attorney evaluations;
Develop an independent process
for client issues with their assigned
PDP attorney;
Leave administrative staffing as is
and place a 10 percent expenditure
limit on future contracts; and
Maintain the roles of the chief
defender, assistant defender and managing attorneys.
The changes will give the county
better and more reliable information to
effectively manage the SMCBA contract, Farrales wrote in the email.

Continued from page 1

any learning task, Superintendent
Craig Baker said in an email. The districts homework policy is meant to
support this sort of learning, thus best
preparing students for success in the
21st century.
Rather than assume a standardized
position to assigning homework, the
policy instead encourages students and
teachers to develop independent work
programs supporting their classroom
learning.
As students get older, they are granted greater autonomy to manage their
homework lessons, in the interest of
building time management skills
among young learners.
Middle school students shall be
encouraged to create personalized, athome, learning goals that complement, expand and deepen lessons and
work taking place during the school
day, according to the policy. These
learning goals shall include developing and practicing a variety of timemanagement strategies that will allow
students to successfully complete
long-term project that are assigned
over a period of weeks or months.
A similar set of expectations is set
for younger students as well, according
to the policy, but there is a greater
focus on collaboration with parents
and families to assure the students are

supporting its independence, Reyna
Farrales, deputy county manager for
Performance Management, wrote the
Daily Journal in an email.
Farrales and the county Controllers
Office conducted reviews of the program that determined the bar association has provided untimely and incomplete independent audit reports and
that it provides inaccurate and deficient reporting.
The County Managers Office recommended an oversight committee be
formed that would then pick the programs chief defender.
The bar association urged the board
not to adopt the recommendation,
however, stating that an oversight
committee would give the county an
opportunity to take over global control of every aspect of the program.
The board also extended the amount
