Foster City budget bolstered by irregular developer fees
Council to consider revenue generating options following five-year financial forecast

If it werent for large develop-

lions of dollars to Foster City, the
Bayfront communitys general
fund could have faced a structural

paid a cumulative $59.6 billion on
employees wages and benefits.
San Mateo Countys top law
enforcement officials were some
of the highest paid elected offi-
of general fund surpluses and
deficits expected over the coming
years, the city has long had a
robust reserve policy and a
healthy cushion on which it could
fall.
The financial evaluation was
part of the citys recently
approved annual Fiscal Year 2017-
18 budget. Although total revenue
of $103.6 million surpassed its
plan to spend $97.7 million over
the coming year, its general fund
faced a $2. 7 million deficit,
according to the budget.

from Newhalen, a small Alaska village

Obama then walked up to her and
asked Who is this pretty girl?
They chatted about how fast children

wearing a straw hat with a white ribbon.
Obama told them he was headed home

hours to confirm that Obama had
stopped there.
When Giselles father approached,

was only five minutes but it was a
moment that will last forever, she said.

BARRE, Vt. Vermonts stock-car-

Republican Gov. Phil Scott won the
50-lap feature Thursday at Barres
Thunder Road, taking home a total of
$1,200.
Scott, a part-time racecar driver, is the
all-time winningest driver in the top

his 30th and his first since becoming
governor in January.
He can now add to his list of accom-
plishments that he is the first sitting
governor to win a Vermont stock car
race.
Scott easily won two preliminary
heats Thursday before starting the fea-
ture in the pole position at the head of
the pack. He led for the entire race.
Scott previously served three two-

wall vent for nearly 14 years.

of Low-Cost Heating and Air

Homeowner Jerry Lynn tells KDKA he
tied the battery-operated clock to a
string in September 2004 and lowered it
inside the wall so the beeping alarm
would pinpoint the spot he needed to
drill for a TV cable. But the clock fell off
the string and has been beeping at 6:50
p.m. or 7:50 p.m. each day, depending
on whether its Daylight Savings Time.

Principal puts finishing touches on career
Chef turned educator Paula Valerio retires from Burlingames McKinley Elementary School
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
When disability cut short her successful
culinary arts career, Paula Valerio was forced
to cook up another plan.
She figured returning to school in pursuit
of an education degree at 35 would be a key
ingredient to a fresh start, and instead was
served the opportunity of her lifetime.
Valerio retired at the end of the school
year as principal at McKinley Elementary
School in Burlingame, after 23 years of
working at the district, and 12 years in the
top administrative position.
As she puts the finishing touches on her
time at the school, Valerio said she found
education work most appealing.
Ive had many careers in my life, but this
has by far been the most rewarding, she
said.
Prior to her time at the school, Valerio
was forced to put her work as a professional
chef catering for elite social circles in San
Francisco on the back burner after being
diagnosed with carpal tunnel syndrome.
Unwilling to allow the setback to define
her, Valerio traded her knives for school
books and never looked back.
I was very successful but I became dis-
abled. But being disabled, Im not going to
sit at home, she said. So I asked, whats tricts that are thinking about developing an
my next purpose?
Valerio said she found her new mission
through blending a passion for education
and an interest in building social equity
through language enrichment, which culmi-
nated in the launch of a Spanish immersion
program at McKinley Elementary School.
The program working toward building
bilingual students through intensive lan-
guage lessons was Valerios brainchild and
it has grown in size and notability since she
was named principal in 2005.

School, it was one the districts smallest
and served only 260 students. In the past
dozen years, the schools enrollment has
floated over 500 and the immersion pro-
gram has 240 students.
As enrollment increased, so did the depth
of the immersion programs curriculum, said
Valerio and the result is a master plan that
continues to be an example to school dis-
pares to dash into the retired life, Valerio

Superintendent Maggie MacIsaac
expressed her appreciation for Valerios
contribution to the district.
Paula embodied the spirit at McKinley
School; fun loving and honoring rich tradi-
tions, she said in an email. She was the
principal that started the Spanish dual
immersion program in Burlingame and she
was a champion for the program.
Looking ahead, Valerio said she plans to
spend more time with her friends and family
who live locally.

Im looking forward to traveling many

said.
She said she will miss the friends, col-

has established at the district over the past
23 years.
There are so many people who have
touched my life greatly, she said. And Im
forever grateful to the Burlingame School
District.
One of her favorite elements of staying in
the school community for so long has been
ability to foster connections with so many
different students and families across multi-
ple generations, she said.
One of the greatest gifts I have had in my
career is being able to share a brief moment
in so many lives, she said.
Valerio said a key to her success is keep-
ing an open door and dedicating herself to
remaining accessible for all students, teach-
ers and members of the school community
a commitment which MacIsaac said has
paid great dividends.
Paula Valerio was an amazing administra-
tor. She knew all her students and their fam-

Thousands evacuate fires burning in the U.S., Canada
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

OROVILLE Wildfires barreled across

the baking landscape of the western U.S.
and Canada, destroying a smattering of
homes, forcing thousands to flee and tem-
porarily trapping children and counselors at
a California campground.
Heres a look at the wildfires blackening
the West.

CALIFORNIA
Two major wildfires in California have
sent nearly 8,000 people fleeing to safety.
About 4,000 people evacuated and anoth-
er 7,400 were told to prepare to leave their
homes as fire swept through grassy
foothills in the Sierra Nevada, about 60
miles north of Sacramento, the California
Department of Forestry and Fire Protection
said Sunday.
The fire burned nearly 8 square miles (20
sq. kilometers), destroyed at least 10 struc-
tures and damaged critical infrastructure,
leading Governor Jerry Brown to declare a
state of emergency to provide assistance to
local authorities.
Fire spokeswoman Mary Ann Aldrich said
additional homes were destroyed overnight.
An inspection team is trying to determine
the extent of the damage.
The area burning was about 10 miles (16
kilometers) south of Oroville, where spill-
ways in the nations tallest dam began
crumbling from heavy rains this winter and
led to temporary evacuation orders for REUTERS

Tillerson talks tough on Russia, vows U.S. support for Ukraine
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
KIEV, Ukraine U.S. Secretary of State
Rex Tillerson told Russia on Sunday that it
must take the first steps to reduce tensions
in eastern Ukraine and that American and
European sanctions would remain in place
until Moscow reversed course in the region.
In surprisingly blunt language just two
days after presidents Donald Trump and
Vladimir Putin met in Germany, Tillerson

and its unclear how leaders will find the
votes to avert a federal default.
The difficulties flow from Republican divi-
sions. Collectively, the problems are threat-
ening to sink top GOP priorities and under-
mine the partys ability to show it can gov-
ern effectively.
Lawmakers have three weeks of work
before an August recess. Some Republicans
are making noise about shortening that
respite, but doing so would be a step shy of
sacrilege on Capitol Hill.
HEALTH CARE NAIL-BITER II
It took the House several tries to pass its
bill aiming to annul much of Obamas health
care law. Now, Senate Majority Leader Mitch
McConnell is struggling to find GOP votes
for a similar package replacing that 2010
statute with one easing insurance coverage
requirements, cutting Medicaid, erasing
penalties on people not buying insurance
and repealing tax increases on the well-off.
McConnell, R-Ky., unexpectedly called off
a pre-recess vote on the measure which
hed written privately as it became clear it
would lose. With Democrats arrayed unani-
mously against him, McConnell needs at
least 50 of the 52 GOP senators to vote yes
or witness the mortifying crumpling of his
partys high-decibel pledge to uproot
Obamas law.
McConnell has been calibrating changes
that might win over worried Republicans, but
theres no sign hes made progress. Two GOP
senators, Bill Cassidy of Louisiana and John
McCain of Arizona, issued dire forecasts on
Sunday, saying the initial bill is probably
dead. Revisions under consideration would

A BUDGET MORASS
Republicans are stuck on a fiscal blueprint
for the coming budget year, with disputes
between conservatives and moderates over
how deeply to cut programs like food
stamps. None of the 12 annual spending
bills financing federal agencies is finished.
Disagreements have slowed work on a tax
overhaul. And no one knows what bargains
will be needed to assure autumn passage of a
bill extending government borrowing
authority and avoiding a crushing federal
default.
House Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wis., told
reporters Friday that hed prefer to pass the
budget in July, suggesting it might linger
until fall, adding to Congress late-year
mountain of work.
Some conservatives in Congress, mean-
while, want to include measures to cut spend-
ing as part of any extension of the govern-
ments borrowing authority.
But Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin
reiterated Sunday on ABCs This Week that sweeping policy bill that takes issue with
the administration prefers a straightforward
extension, without including contentious
agreements on spending cuts.
TAX REFORM
Mnuchin also knocked down a report last
week that Trump administration adviser
Steve Bannon has floated a tax increase on
the wealthiest households as a way to pay for
tax cuts for middle-income Americans.
Ive never heard Steve mention that,
Mnuchin said on This Week. He added that
the increase is not part of the administra-
tions tax plan.

The administration is aiming to release its
full tax plan by September, Mnuchin said,
and hopes to pass it into law by the end of
the year. So far, the administration has issued
a one-page summary of broad principles for
tax reform, but few details.
The GOP congressional leadership and the
Trump administration have struggled with
the issue of how to offset the cost of tax cuts.
Mnuchin said the administrations plan
would pay for itself, if about $2 trillion in
increased revenue resulting from faster eco-
nomic growth is included.
Yet congressional budget scorekeepers
may not agree that tax cuts would produce
such growth.
Under congressional budget rules, tax cuts
can be passed by the Senate with a simple
majority, but only if they dont increase the
deficit after 10 years. That would allow
Republicans, who have 52 Senate seats, to
pass the bill without any Democratic votes.

posed 2018 military budget as insufficient.

leaders summit in Hamburg, Germany.
Trump an unpredictable
force among U.S. allies
By Julie Pace and Ken Thomas
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
HAMBURG, Germany On President
Donald Trumps second trip abroad, there
were fewer of the bull-in-a-diplomatic-
china-shop moments that had solidified
European leaders skepticism during his
maiden overseas tour. Less public berating
of allies, no pushing to the front of photo
opportunities.
But Trump still departed Europe on
Saturday in the same position as he started:
an unpredictable force on the world stage
and an outlier among longtime American
partners.
For the presidents backers, his posture
is the fulfillment of his campaign promise
to bring more opaqueness to American for-
eign policy and challenge long-standing
global agreements, even with the nations
closest allies. But his detractors say he
keeps sending the world dangerously
mixed messages.
Our partners and our allies are all look-
ing for meaning and intention in those
words and will read into it what they want
to, which may or may not be what Trump
meant, said Laura Rosenberger, a former
foreign policy adviser to Hillary Clinton
and a senior fellow with the German
Marshall Fund.

Trumps message on Russia remains the
most convoluted, despite his advisers
efforts to put to rest questions about his
views on Moscows election meddling. The
president refused to publicly give the kind
of condemnation that his staff said he
delivered to Russian President Vladimir
Putin during a private meeting Friday. He
let a challenge from Putin, who said Trump
accepted his denial of Russian involve-
ment in the 2016 election, go largely
unanswered, tweeting Sunday morning that
hed already given my opinion on the
matter.
Trumps posture toward Putin has left
allies both baffled and anxious, particular-
ly against the backdrop of the investiga-
tions into whether his campaign coordi-
nated with Russia during last years elec-
tion. But increasingly, its Trumps posi-
tions on climate and trade that have cata-
pulted to the top of their list of concerns.
The divide over climate was particularly
glaring as the Group of 20 summit in
Hamburg, Germany, drew to a close. The
U.S. was the only member country that did
not sign a statement reaffirming the
alliances support for international efforts
to fight global warming. The statement
called the Paris climate accord, which
Trump withdrew from last month, an irre-
versible global agreement.
Trump says U.S. must work with
Russia, move past election issues
By Jill Colvin
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON President Donald
Trump said Sunday that it is time to move
forward in working constructively with
Russia after his lengthy meeting with
Russian President Vladimir Putin in
Germany. But he is still avoiding the ques-
tion of whether he accepts Putins denial
that Russia was responsible for meddling in
the 2016 election.
Speaking in a series of tweets the morn-
ing after returning from a world leaders
summit in Germany, Trump said he strong-
ly pressed Putin twice over Russian med-
dling during their meeting Friday.
Trump said that Putin vehemently
denied the conclusions of American intel-
ligence agencies that Russian hackers and
propagandists tried to sway the election in
Trumps favor. But Trump would not say
whether he believed Putin, tweeting only
that hes already given my opinion.
Trump has said he thinks Russia probably
hacked the emails of the Democratic
National Committee and Hillary Clinton
staffers, but that other people and/or coun-
tries were likely involved as well. He said
ahead of the meeting that, Nobody knows
for sure.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov
first told reporters in Germany on Friday
that Trump had accepted Putins assurances
that Russia hadnt meddled an assertion
Putin repeated Saturday after the Group of
20 summit. Putin said he left the meeting
thinking that Trump had believed his in-
person denials.
He asked questions, I replied. It seemed
to me that he was satisfied with the
answers, Putin said.
Secretary of State Rex Tillerson did not
answer directly when asked Sunday if Trump
had accepted Putins denial, but told
Monday July 10, 2017 7
reporters in Ukraine that Trumps conversa-
tion with Putin on election interference
went about the way we expected.
Tillerson was the only other American offi-
cial in the room.
Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin also
declined to say whether Trump accepted
Putins denial. Why would President Trump
broadcast exactly what he said in the meet-
ing? Strategically that makes no sense,
Mnuchin said. Hes made it very clear how
he feels. Hes made it very clear that he
addressed it straight on.
But White House chief of staff Reince
Priebus took issue with Putins characteri-
zation.
The president absolutely didnt believe
the denial of President Putin, Priebus said.
He said Trump had spent a large part of the
meeting on the subject, but wanted to
move onto other subjects.
He and other administration officials said
Trump did not want Russian interference in
last years election to prevent him from
working with Putins government on other
issues, including the civil war in Syria.
You know, the past, I dont know if we
will ever come to an agreement, obviously
with our Russian counterparts on that. I
think the important thing is how do we
assure that this doesnt happen again,
Tillerson said.
Tillerson said that, In all candidness, we
did not expect an answer other than the one
we received from Russia.
Everybody knows that Russia meddled in
our elections, added Nikki Haley, the U.S.
ambassador to the United Nations. This is
Russia trying to save face.
But in a show of U.S.-Russian coopera-
tion, officials announced during the trip
that the two sides had brokered a cease-fire
in southern Syria that went into effect
Sunday. Trump tweeted that the deal will
save lives.

June 20, 2017, at a special luncheon
ceremony at the YouTube campus in

because the community votes for who

John Maltbie is an extraordinary county
manager, Pine said. When you look at a
county manager or general manager for a
transportation agency, you see theres com-
petition for the best talent and theres no
more important person than the person who
sits on top of an organization, Pine said.
He emphasized Maltbies compensation
spoke to his more than two decades of expe-
rience and added that pay scale wouldnt nec-
essarily transfer to a new county manager.
Maltbie served as manager from 1989 to
2008, then returned in late 2011. His current
contract is slated to expire in 2018 and Pine
noted the salary increase was to encourage
him to stay on board.
Don Horsley, president of the Board of
Supervisors, pointed to the regions astro-
nomical housing costs as a hindrance to
retaining a wide spectrum of employees from
park rangers to physicians.
We are one of the highest cost counties in
the state if not the nation. We are having a
harder time recruiting and retaining employ-
ees, Horsley said in an email. The average
cost of a [San Mateo County] home is around

Manager Kevin Miller said in an email.
Recognizing these irregular funds could
contribute to a mix of deficits and surpluses
going forward, staff will return to the coun-
cil in October to host a study session on

More than half of the citys general fund
this year is supported by property tax rev-
enue with Foster City parcels contributing
$24.5 million; the next most consistent
source is about $3.6 million in state vehicle
license fee contributions, $3. 4 million

$3 million in sales taxes, according to the
budget.
The city has long sought ways to bolster
revenue, with sales tax having been a chal-

$1.2 million. To afford that, you must have a
down payment of around $250,000 and earn
$250,000 annually. Rents are equally out of
sight.
While the county pays well for top posi-
tions, overall its average wages make it just
21st in the state with other Bay Area counties
like Santa Clara, Alameda, Napa, Contra
Costa and San Francisco all paying more,
according to the controller.
Several San Mateo County cities also
topped the list of highest average salaries
out of 471 cities that reported data. Atherton
came in fifth paying $92,918 on average,
Burlingame was 11th at $88,467,
Hillsborough was 13th with average salaries
around $85,116, then followed by East Palo
Alto clocking in at 22nd paying $76,562
all higher than their neighboring wealthy
Palo Alto, according to the controller.
San Mateo Countys top law enforcement
officials are some of the highest paid elected
officials in the state last year, with its sheriff
and district attorney making the top 10 list
of voter-approved officials who took home
the largest paychecks, according to the con-
troller.
In 2016, the county paid $334,290 in
wages for the sheriffs position, the fifth
highest for an elected official in 53
Bridgepointe and Hillsdale. The citys prop-
erty tax valuation appears strong this year,
but many residents have remained opposed
to further housing developments while an
influx of already approved projects are in
the works.
Even with an economic development plan
in hand, the city will further look at its
options later this year.
Our preliminary plans in October for rev-
enue generators will include transient occu-
pancy tax, evaluation of sales tax and re-
evaluating our capital improvement five-
year contributions. We will also discuss
how land use can impact revenues, Miller
said.
In the meantime, this years general fund
budget provides $1.9 million toward Foster
Citys capital improvement program and
earmarked accounts supporting buildings,
vehicles and information technology are
fully funded, he said.
In its total budget, it plans on spending
almost $20 million on capital improve-
ment projects next year. The largest capital
projects include its $119 million portion of
the wastewater treatment plant overhaul it
shares with San Mateo, an estimated $90
million upgrade of its levee, parks improve-
ments as well as street repairs, according to
the budget. The levee upgrades will be paid
for through a bond measure and the citys
share of the treatment plant overhaul will
come from sewer fees.

Sheriff Carlos Bolanos was serving as

Munks retired in the middle of last year.
When Bolanos was appointed as sheriff,
which is an elected position, he had to forgo
his unused vacation time. To account for that,
the board decided to allow him to cash out his
accrued time off and pay him a lump sum. The
sheriffs base salary is now about $245,000,
which is not on the high end for the state,
Pine said. The position that includes over-

These expenditures are an important

That quality of life and level of service
relies on city workers, who make up the
largest expense with $38 million going

also making a one-time transfer of $2 mil-
lion to establish an employee home loan

the city.
But like many others who are part of the

unfunded pension liabilities, said Hindi.
With new state regulations slated to
increase the citys contributions, Hindi said
hes hopeful future bargaining processes
will include a cost-sharing proposal where-

their retirement payments.
As you know about 78 percent of our

The case for Dumbarton Rail
By Warren Slocum
I
n early July, a poll of voters in
the nine Bay Area Counties was
released showing a solid majori-
ty would support up to a $3 increase
in bridge tolls to pay for signicant
upgrades to our transportation sys-
tem.
It is clear that voters frustration
with trafc has reached a breaking
point. With the passage of Senate
Bill 1 ($52 billion in state dollars),
the potential for Regional Measure 3
(the bridge toll increase), a potential
half-cent sales tax plan in San Mateo
County, along with federal dollars, we
have a once-in-a-generation opportu-
nity to create a transportation net-
work that will signicantly ease our
current trafc congestion and develop
a long-range vision for the future.
Historically, our task here in San
Mateo County was to gure out how
to move people to San Francisco,
which used to be the job center of the
Bay Area. But patterns have changed
over the last several decades and we
have grown to the point of having
close to 500,000 jobs on the

most important question of all. Soat
the end of the presentation, I did: If
you look at the block borderedby El
Camino Real, Fourth and Fifth
avenues and San Mateo Drive, the
retail there is already fairly dense,
there is not enough parking now and
the surrounding streets are already
choked with trafc most of the day.
You want to make the retail even more
dense, then add 80 apartments which
will bring at least 200 residents to
that one block, plus addproba-
bly150 additional cars to an already-
slow trafc ow. Now, why should
any of us think this is a good idea?
When the two Essex representatives
seemed at a loss for words, I added:

Sacramento to Silicon Valley in
one hour is the vision I would like to
promote. While this may be many
years away from reality, I am con-
vinced that with new technology and
faster speeds it will be possible at
some point. The reality today is that
we must embrace the concept of a
mega-region that includes the Bay
Area, Sacramento and San Joaquin
Valley. How do we connect these areas
by rail and enable people to nd more
affordable housing and be able to get
to work in a timely fashion?
The idea of Dumbarton Rail has
been around for decades. It gained
steam when SamTrans purchased the
Dumbarton right of way, from
Redwood City to the East Bay, an
11.5-mile stretch. This includes an
abandoned rail bridge that has deterio-
rated over the years. The sticking
point for rail has always been insuf-
cient riders to justify this project.

Millbraes housing
affordability crisis
Editor,
Millbrae is suffering from a hous-
ing affordability crisis and a leader-
ship crisis. Like the rest of the
Peninsula, many longtime residents
suffer from skyrocketing rent increas-
es because of a shortage of housing.
While some cities are doing their part
to create affordable housing, Millbrae
leaders have failed us miserably.
Longtime Councilwoman Gina Papan
is an extreme example of the failure
of leadership. She has been on the
council and served as mayor for 11
plus years, and produced nothing. Oh,

OPINION
Guest
perspective
Currently, however, SamTrans is
nalizing a study of the Dumbarton
highway and rail corridor, scheduled
to be released later this summer. I
anticipate that new ridership numbers
will begin to reect the enormous job
growth in the Peninsula and South
Bay and the value of potential con-
nections to BART, Capitol Corridor
and ACE rail. Taken together, these
connections could create the ground-
work for the emerging mega-region.
Under this scenario, Dumbarton rail
is the key missing link to seizing an
historic opportunity to address our
two most complex issues, trafc and
access to affordable housing. In the
months ahead, it is critical you stay
tuned to this debate and make your
voices heard. We need to get this
right.
Warren Slocum represents District 4 on
the San Mateo County Board of
Superv isors and is a member of the
Metropolitan Transportation
Commission.
Im exaggerating a bit Millbrae
has created exactly three housing
units for low income families during
the last eight year period for which
the regional agency collects data.
Thats about half a bedroom per year
while Papan was on the council.
Millbraes regionally assigned
quota during this period was 74
homes, and the city built only three
units. Thats 4 percent of its housing
goal. If I got a 4 percent score on a
test, Id expect to fail, and thats what
Papans done.
San Bruno met its goal, and Foster
City and even Hillsborough did far
better for low-income families. San
Mateo County as a whole at least
reached 25 percent of its housing
goal.
The housing crisis is real, forcing
people to the streets and exacerbating
inequality. This has real world conse-
quences that weve been seeing with
increasing desperation and even
homelessness.
Its time for Papan to either take
action on the City Council to create
housing, or step down in disgrace.

Donald Trump vs.
Frank Underwood
T
he fth series of House of Cards is as chilling as
earlier episodes which premiered several years ago
on Netix. But watching this year is not as surreal
as in the past. Thats because the real news of Trump world
is as surreal as the streaming world of Frank Underwood.
Sometimes I am not sure what is more real, the episode I
watched last night or this
mornings news.
In a match between Trump
and Underwood, theres no
contest even though there
are similarities. Both
become president under
unusual circumstances.
Trump insults his rivals and
uses social media to demean
them. He uses shock and
awe to attract and entertain
unhappy voters. And, it
still has not been conrmed
how big a factor Russian
manipulation of news and
election data was in his
election. Underwood is ruth-
less in his march to the top, ensnaring an existing vice
president and president to clear the rungs of the political
ladder. Not to mention killing off a few who know too
much. Both Trump and Underwood promise that their rst
priority will be to create jobs. Both get deeply involved
with the Russians. Both use the threat of a foreign terror-
ist group to achieve their goals. In Trumps case, its to
appeal to his base. For Underwood, its a way to tamper
with the vote. And both have beautiful wives. And, of
course, both are under investigation. But the similarities
end there.
***
Donald Trump would be no match for Frank Underwood
who, as a former U.S. senator from South Carolina, knows
his way around Washington. And knows how to manipu-
late power and the people who hold it. Underwoods wife
Claire is not a Slovenian model but a U.S. born and bred
Lady Macbeth. Underwoods chief of staff, who will do
anything for his boss including murder and covering up
his bosss numerous crimes, is no Reince Priebus. Both
chiefs of staff get kicked around by their boss but Doug
Stamper plays a major role in Underwoods reign while
Priebus is second or third tier.
***
Frank Underwood is smart and conniving. His number
one interest is power and staying in power as president.
He is not interested in money per se but understands the
role it plays in politics. He comes from a poor southern
family and marries a woman from a wealthier and more
substantial background. He may be considered a mad man
in his quest for power but mad in a cunning way.
Donald Trump, on the other hand, is interested in
money, lots of money, his money and his business. While
Underwood tries to hide his political maneuvers, Trump
tries to hide his tax returns, seedy business practices and
his commercial ties to foreign countries. But business is
second to his major and most consuming interest. And
thats himself. He is an egotist of the most frightening
sort, especially for the so-called leader of the free world.
He can dish it out but he cant take it. Any criticism is
answered with a tweet and a barrage of lies. People need to
be careful around him and careful about what they say, just
as they are for North Koreas Kim Jong Un or other
tyrants like Hitler and Stalin. Some fear Trumps love
affair with himself borders on paranoia.
We know what happens to Frank Underwood at the end
of Season Five. We are still waiting to see what happens
to Donald Trump; and I guess, what happens to us as a
result.
***
Last week, I watched a television documentary prepared
by Robert Redford in 2013 on revisiting Watergate. An
older looking Redford sits down with the two Washington
Post reporters who broke the story: a much older Bob
Woodward (played by a young Redford in the original
movie) and a much older Carl Bernstein (played by Dustin
Hoffman in the same movie). The documentary brings
back memories of the Watergate hearings: Republican
Sen. Howard Bakers What did the president know and
when did he know it?; John Deans cancer on the presi-
dency, and Alexander Butterelds admission of secret
tapes. The screen shows an old and graying Mark Felt
acknowledging he was Deep Throat. We see a desperate
president re his attorney general, and then the assistant
attorney general when they refuse to re the special prose-
cutor. This was all very real. Not a Netix serial. And all
very relevant, especially today.

Getting VW owners their share
By Tom Krisher
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
DETROIT About a year ago,
Volkswagen agreed to spend up to $15.3
billion to settle consumer lawsuits and
government allegations that its diesel
vehicles cheated on U.S. emissions tests.
Included was up to $10 billion for owners
of about 450,000 VWs and Audis to either
buy back or repair vehicles with 2-liter
engines.
Owners would get $5,100 to $10,000 in
addition to buybacks or fixes. As of late
June, VW had paid $6.3 billion to 2-liter
owners. About 62 percent of the cars, or
300, 000, have been purchased by VW,
modified or scrapped. Owners have until
September of 2018 to apply.
Elizabeth Cabraser, a San Francisco
attorney who led negotiations for people
suing the company, says the payments are
substantial because VW admitted guilt. Her
interview has been edited for length and
clarity.
Q: Co ns umers appeared to be bet-
ter co mpens ated here than i n mo s t
cl as s -acti o n s ui ts . Ho w di d y o u man-
ag e that?
A: Consumer class actions sometimes
get a bum rap, I think. This case was differ-
ent. Its about cars. Thats a major invest-
ment for people, particularly because they
bought these cars for very specific reasons.
Tesla provides first look at cheaper Model 3 sedan
By Christopher S. Rugaber
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON Electric automaker
Tesla has produced its first Model 3 sedan, a
highly anticipated car because it carries a
relatively low sticker price.
CEO Elon Musk late Saturday tweeted pic-
tures of the car, which will cost $35,000 and
can travel 215 miles on a single electric
charge. A $7,500 federal tax credit for elec-
tric vehicles would lower the cost to
$27,500.
The new model comes after a bad week for

VW spent a lot of time and money ramping
up the program to have it ready. Theres a
limited infrastructure there, limited by the
number of dealers. We did such a good job
in the financial features of the settlement
that everybody showed up early to get their
buybacks. That put a tremendous stress on
the system. In order to make this work for
people, more resources had to be put into
the system.

A: The government has strong allega-
tions, as do we. Its too early to project.
The fact remains that emissions controls
were evaded. (The company says it did not
install software with the intent to cheat on
tests and says it will defend itself in court)
The number of vehicles is smaller.
(104,000) That means this is a less-expen-
sive problem to solve. If repairing the cars
is less complicated, either from a software
reflashing or a mechanical standpoint, that
saves money. But also we still have the
challenge of sufficiently incentivizing
owners to have modifications made.
Owners are not going to do that if they are
to significantly affect the mileage or per-
formance of these vehicles.

Hillsborough 10-11s Fish power
glide to section finals past Giants
By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
With one mighty swing of the bat by
Whitaker Tollmann, Hillsborough powered
its way into the championship game of the
Section 3 Little League 10-11s All-Star
Tournament.
A prototypical leadoff hitter who has bat-
ted in the No. 9 spot through All-Star play,
Tollmann entered play Sunday having not
hit a home run in an official game in over a
year. But that streak ended in Hillsboroughs
5-2 victory over Union City in the winners
bracket semifinals at Hillsborough Majors
Field.
Tollmann admits the power game is not
his specialty. He totaled zero home runs dur-
ing the Hillsborough Little League regular
season. He didnt go deep in last years
District 52 9-10s tournament. Instead
Tollmann stays true to the on-base virtues.
Easy base hits, line drives and beat out
some groundballs, Tollmann said of his
specialties at the plate.
Stepping to the plate in the third inning
amid a 1-1 tie with the bases loaded against
Union City though, Tollmann connected
with a high fastball and sent a booming
opposite-field drive well over the right-cen-
ter field fence for a grand slam home run
the first grand slam he has ever hit in a com-
petitive baseball game.
I was like, Oh yeah! I hit a home run for
my team, Tollmann said. And it was a
grand slam. So I was like, Lets go!
The 5-1 lead was more than enough for
Hillsborough reliever Tyler Spitzer-Wu to
work with. The right-hander entered in the
top of the third in relief of starting pitcher
Dylan Kall, working deep into the sixth and
final inning to earn the in through three
innings.

Robbins has his pitching staff lined up

Marlins cap sweep

SAN FRANCISCO With two more
home runs to pad his already impressive
total in the first half, Miamis Giancarlo
Stanton sure looks ready to make a strong
defense of his Home Run Derby title during
the All-Star break.
A sweep of the Giants to complete their
long road trip also has
the Marlins feeling opti-
mistic about their own
situation.
Stanton homered twice,
the second coming after
A.J. Ellis tiebreaking
two-run shot in the 11th
inning, and Miami held on
to beat San Francisco 10-
Giancarlo 8 on Sunday to complete
Stanton
the three-game sweep.
If we want to stick together, if we want to
have a chance to not have a wasted year, this
is huge, Stanton said. We have to jump in
the second half the same way and see what
happens.
Miami blew a 7-4 lead when the Giants
scored three runs off Kyle Barraclough in the
eighth before Ellis and Stanton lifted the
Marlins in extra innings.
J. T. Realmuto reached on shortstop
Brandon Crawfords throwing error leading
off the 11th. After JT Riddle flew out, Ellis
hit a tiebreaking two-run home run. It was

Dragons cruise past O.C. 3-1 in season home finale

By Curtis Driscoll
DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT
The Burlingame Dragons swept aside last
place Orange County SC 3-1 to end their
final regular-season home game with a win.
Three goals in the first half were enough
to ensure fans went home happy.
Burlingame Dragons head coach Joe
Cannon was pleased with the overall result
and the performance the team put in.
I thought we played very well and good
enough on the day to get us the win,
Cannon said.
The Dragons were
aggressive from the
opening whistle despite
being out of playoff con-
tention. Burlingame had
multiple chances to
score within the first 10
minutes. Burlingame
Matt players Arda Bulut and
Wiesenfarth Jamael Cox both got
into the penalty box
with opportunities to score, but neither
could find the final touch. In the 15th
minute, Burlingame striker Matt
Wiesenfarth was denied after hustling to
knock the ball out of the Orange County
goalkeepers hand on a 50-50 ball in the air.
Wiesenfarth was able to collect the ball and
shoot, but it was blocked.
Orange County was only able to hold the
attacking onslaught from Burlingame for
28 minutes before letting in a goal. An
Orange County turnover in their half led to a
wide-open cross for Burlingame midfielder
Gabe Silveira, who laid a smooth ball into
the box for Wiesenfarth to tap in.
Wiesenfarth credited his teammates and the
teams 4-4-2 formation with providing him
the great opportunities to score.
[Bulut] did a really good job of checking
back to the ball which brought their defend-
ers with them and gave space for me to run
in behind, Wiesenfarth said. I think thats
why we exposed them a little bit in the first
half.

On brutal Tour day that culls 12 riders, Froome still on top
By John Leicester and Andrew Dampf
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CHAMBERY, France The Tour de France
threw the kitchen sink at Chris Froome:
steep mountain ascents followed by dare-
devil descents at speeds exceeding 70 kilo-
meters (45 miles) per hour that wiped out
other riders, the loss of his top teammate in
a crash, a breakdown on his bike, and rivals
who tried to make him crack with bursts of
acceleration.
But the most grueling, drama-filled day so
far of this 104th Tour finished, yet again,
with Froome still wearing the race leaders
yellow jersey. By surviving Stage 9 that put
12 riders out of the race, and left others
bloodied and bandaged, the three-time
champion took a big step toward a fourth
victory in Paris on July 23.
With seven ascents that together amount-
ed to 4,600 meters (15,000 feet) of climb-
ing more than half the height of Everest
this was the monster stage that Froome
had predicted it would be. It separated gen-
uine contenders for victory from simple pre-
tenders. At the start Sunday, eight riders had
been within a minute of Froome in the over-
all standings. Now, just three are.
Among top names gone completely:
Richie Porte and Froomes teammate
Geraint Thomas, who led the Tour for its
first four days. Both crashed out.
Porte, who had been fifth overall, was
zooming downhill in pursuit of Froome
when he missed a left-hand bend, cart-
wheeled across the road and bowled over
another rider, Dan Martin, before slamming
into a stony, vine-covered bank.
Medics first treated the Australian on the
tarmac and then took him to a hospital
where he was diagnosed with a fractured
pelvis and collarbone.
Fabio Baldato, one of the directors of
Portes BMC team, said the rider had shoul-
der pain but was always conscious. He
knew what happened and was asking for his

helmet and his glasses.
Thomas broke his collarbone.
The crashes took some of the shine off
what otherwise was an impressive show of
resilience from Froome. He placed third in
the stage, narrowly beaten in a final sprint
by Colombian Rigoberto Uran at the finish
in Chambery, in the Alps. French rider
Warren Barguil was just millimeters behind
in second place so close that he burst
into tears thinking he had won, only to dis-
cover moments later that he hadnt.
For his third place, Froome was awarded
four bonus seconds that allowed him to con-
solidate his overall lead. With Thomas, who
had been in second place, now out, Italian
Fabio Aru climbed to second spot in the race
rankings 18 seconds behind Froome
overall. French rider Romain Bardet, runner-

up to Froome last year, is third overall, 51
seconds behind Froome. The only other
rider within a minute of Froome is Uran,
who jumped from 11th to fourth overall, 55
seconds behind the leader.
Uran thought Barguil had beaten him to
the line. It was a moment of confusion aptly
fitting for a day of racing so chaotic that it
was difficult at times to keep track of all the
drama, as riders scattered like leaves over the
181.5-kilometer (112-mile) stage seven
of them falling so far back that they missed
the time cut and are now out of the Tour.

Paly-Woodside Palomino on a roll
By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
The Peninsula Blues are finally hitting
their stride.
But Saturday, in running a recent winning
streak to 11 games, hardly anyone else was
able to hit them.
The Blues formerly the Redwood City
American Legion Post 105 team that bailed
for the Palomino League last season swept
a doubleheader Saturday against the Peninsula
Rays-Sunnyvale, allowing just one hit over
both games at Palo Alto High School.
In the opener, starting pitcher Justin Hull
and reliever Evan McDonough fronted a 5-0
victory by combining on a no-hitter. In the
nightcap, a 10-0 five-inning, mercy-rule win,
the Blues took a no-hitter into the fifth
inning before the Zach Rosner lined a two-
strike, two-out single to right field for the
Rays only hit of the day.
Hull the 2016 Santa Clara Valley
Athletic League De Anza Division MVP out of
Palo Alto High School worked six innings
to earn the win in the no-hitter. The right-
hander faced one over the minimum, totaling
an efficient 62 pitches. McDonough, a recent
Woodside graduate, closed it out in the sev-
enth, closing out the no-no with a strikeout.
[Hull] threw strikes for six innings,
Blues manager Tim Goode said. He pitches.
He never went over 14 pitches in an inning.
He struck out six guys, didnt walk anybody.
The tall right-hander is coming off his
freshman season at the Division III program
at Claremont McKenna College, where he
posted a 1-3 record through 12 appearances
including three starts. Saturday, he hooked up

THE DAILY JOURNAL
with other top contenders.
As Froome was frantically signaling to
members of his team following in a car that
he was in trouble, Aru choose that exact
moment to accelerate away, followed by
other top challengers, including Porte.
For a few moments, Froomes Tour seemed
to be hanging by a thread.
But Aru and the others then slowed rather
than press home their advantage appar-
ently adhering to the Tours unwritten rule
that challengers shouldnt attack the race
leader when hes in difficulty not of his own
making.
With a replacement bike and teammates
who waited for him, Froome ground his way
back into the pack. Higher up the climb, he
appeared to swerve across the road and
nudge Aru with his right shoulder.
But the Briton said that was purely acci-
dental, a bit of a wobble, not an attempt
to reprimand the Italian for his earlier
attack.
It was in no way a swipe at Aru, Froome
said.
I want to say thank you to the other rid-
ers for not attacking, Froome said. They
waited until I had changed bikes. Thats
sporting and pleasing to see.
Aru was riding right behind Froome when
the Tour leader raised his hand to show that
he was in trouble. Still, the Italian insisted
that he hadnt seen Froomes hand signal,
and that it had always been his intention to
attack at that spot on the climb, with about
six kilometers (4 miles) left to ascend on
the Mont du Chat.
Then I heard on the radio that Froome had
stopped, Aru said. When I heard it on the
radio then I stopped.
Of the days seven notable ascents, three

classification) rating on cyclings sliding

climbs into the same stage.

run fifth. Riley Schobben

gle, and Evan Yedinak and

In the second game, for-
mer Woodside right-han-
der Jamie Kruger made his

first pitching appearance
of the summer in style, facing the minimum
through three innings of work. Kruger did hit
one batter, but that got erased on a double play,
setting up reliever Brandon Collins to take
over in the fourth inning facing the top of the
Rays batting order. Collins allowed four base
runners, but after the two-out single in the fifth
he kept the shutout in tact. The game conclud-
ed on a groundout to shortstop Tony Masetti.
Schobben had two hits in the game while
McDonough added a two-run double.
Goode attributed the current 11-game win-
ning streak to getting a consistent core of
players to fill out the summer-league roster.
This wasnt necessarily the case toward the
start of the win streak, as three games in the
Blues pulled off a miracle win in Santa Cruz.
With only nine players making the trip,
and pulling into town late to take on the
Santa Cruz Seals the scheduled 5 p.m. start
got underway 20 minutes late the Blues
still managed to take a 4-2 lead into the sev-
enth inning, but saw the Seals tie it up to
force extra frames.
The Blues ultimately rallied in the 14th
inning for a 6-4 victory in a game that ended
at approximately 11 p.m.
Despite the excruciating late-night road
trip, the outcome was a catalyst for the teams
recent winning ways, according to Goode.
It was a memorable game but also, some-
thing in our minds, it solidified we could com-
pete at a higher level than we had been,
Goode said.

All-Star Game heads to Miami
Felix returns to
with sport struggling in Florida form,blanks As
By Steven Wine
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
MIAMI A Miami Marlins fan walks into
a bar, and this is no joke: He wants to watch
his team play, but all 10 televisions are tuned
to other games in other time zones.
The bar, located near Marlins Park, broad-
casts the lack of allegiance for the home team
loud and clear.
Its a common occurrence in South Florida,
and where else would such a thing happen?
Not Boston or St. Louis or San Francisco or
most major league locales.
Tampa Bay? Maybe. Like the Marlins, the
Rays are last in their league in attendance and
battling the kind of chronic fan apathy that
has plagued both franchises since they were
founded in the 1990s.
The Marlins are in their 25th season and
about to host the All-Star Game when it comes
to the state for the first time. But does Major
League Baseball belong in Florida?
Perhaps not, given the failure of the Rays
and Marlins to develop a robust fan base.
I dont know what the disconnect is, said
NL All-Star manager Joe Maddon, who spent
nine seasons as Tampa Bays manager.
Spring training has been here for 100 years.
You would think this would be a strong area for
baseball.
Instead, its a strong area for foul-ball col-
lectors, because they face little competition.
The Rays have finished last in the majors in
attendance every year since 2011, when they
were next to last. The Marlins have finished
last in the NL 11 of the past 12 seasons.
Many spectators who do show up care more
about the visitors even if that means boo-
ing them. Orioles starter Ubaldo Jimenez
heard jeers from Baltimore fans recently as he
left the mound after a poor performance at
Tampa Bay.
Marlins supporters were badly outnumbered
in June against the visiting Cubs and Mets.
Its not a great situation, said Miami man-
ager Don Mattingly, accustomed to a more
favorable home atmosphere when he played
for the Yankees. It would be nice to have a
packed house with Marlins fans, so Cub fans
or Met fans cant get tickets. But thats not the
case. What are you going to do?
Both Florida teams tried changing their
name; that didnt help. It turned out calling
them the Tampa Bay Devil Rays and Florida
Marlins wasnt the issue.
So what is? Theories might outnumber
empty seats.
SPORTS
Marlins Park will play host to the 2017 Major League Baseball All-Star Game Tuesday night.
There are a bunch of problems, said Rays
first baseman Logan Morrison, who also
played for the Marlins.
One issue is the transient nature of the state,
which makes it different from markets where
fan support goes back generations.
A lot of people who live in Florida arent
from Florida, Morrison said. The organiza-
tions are relatively new, so you dont have
fans with deep roots. A lot of people who go
to games in the Florida markets are fans of
other teams.
Another issue is lack of competitiveness.
Floridas teams have reached the playoffs six
times in their 43 combined seasons. The
Marlins havent been to the postseason since
2003, the longest current drought in the NL.
I dont think its a market we should give
up on just yet, said South Florida native Mike
Lowell, who played for the Marlins 2003
World Series champions. You need teams to
make another playoff run.
In 2003, that last month was so exciting.
It snowballed, and in the postseason we had a
unique home-field advantage, because all of a
sudden were drawing 60,000-plus. It shows
that if you build a winner, Miami will rally
around it.
That championship team was soon disman-
tled in one of the Marlins many payroll
purges, and support plummeted.
For both the Marlins and Rays, modest pay-
rolls have made it tough to keep popular
and expensive players. Constant roster

turnover has alienated fans, especially in
Miami, where unpopular owner Jeffrey Lorias
team is for sale.
The All-Star Game will showcase the
Marlins 5-year-old ballpark, which received
rave reviews but hasnt helped attendance. The
Rays, by contrast, play in 27-year-old
Tropicana Field, widely regarded among the
worst facilities in professional sports.
Neither ballpark is centrally located in its
region, making for long drives at rush hour for
many potential spectators.
There are a lot of Marlins fans, said
Marlins executive Jeff Conine, a former All-
Star Game MVP nicknamed Mr. Marlin. I get
recognized wherever I go. People like the
Marlins. They just dont come to games.

Mariners 4, As 0
By Tim Booth
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SEATTLE The best of Felix Hernandez
doesnt mean what it did in the past. Hes not
going to blow away hitters with his fastball
the way he did earlier in his career. What he
showed Sunday is his best at this stage of his
career is still capable of being dominant.
Hernandez allowed two hits over six
innings and Nelson Cruz hit his 17th home
run of the season to give
the Mariners a 4-0 win
over the As.
Making his fourth start
since coming off the dis-
abled list late last month,
Hernandez (4-3) struck
out a season-high eight,
allowing only a third-
inning double to Matt
Felix Hernandez Joyce and a two-out sin-
gle to Jaycob Brugman in the fifth.
Oakland starter Daniel Gossett (1-4) was
pulled after 4 1/3 innings, giving up three
runs and five hits. He had pitched at least six
innings in two of his previous three starts.
Oakland manager Bob Melvin said the situ-
ation more than the way Gossett was pitch-
ing dictated making the move.
At that point with four days off and a
loaded bullpen I just couldnt give up anoth-
er run with lefties coming up, Oakland
manager Bob Melvin said. Third time
through the middle of the order I just
thought it was time for him to come out. But
I thought he threw the ball pretty well.
The As were shut out for the fifth time this
season and at 39-50 has the ninth-worst
record in club history since moving to
Oakland. They are 21 games behind in the
division.

Afterward, while many of his teammates
were headed in different directions to enjoy
time off during the break, Stanton packed
for Miami where hell take part in Mondays
Home Run Derby.
Gonna get in at 4 a.m. or 5 a.m. but as
ready as you can be, Stanton said.
Christian Yelich added two doubles and
scored twice, Justin Bour had two hits and
two RBIs while Miguel Ozuna doubled in a
run to tie a franchise record for most RBIs on
a road trip as the Marlins head into the break
having won five of six.
Nick Wittgren (2-1) retired six batters for
the win and A.J. Ramos pitched the ninth for
his 17th save.
Not a game the way we really want to
play it but it ended up the way you want it to
go, Miami manager Don Mattingly said.
A lot of crazy things out there but at the end
of the day we do enough to win.
Brandon Crawford and Nick Hundley
homered for San Francisco. The Giants, los-
ers of four straight and 26 games out of first
place in the NL West, enter the break with
the second-worst record in baseball.
Its been a tough first half, San
Francisco manager Bruce Bochy said. You
try to fix a hole in the dike and another
Ozuna doubled in Yelich in the third, giv-
ing him 16 RBIs on Miamis road trip. That
ties the club record for the most on a trip of
10 games or longer shared by Gary Sheffield
(1995) and Cody Ross (2008).
Cain to the bullpen?
Matt Cain, who was penciled in to start
before Bochy opted to go with Cueto, retired
one batter, walked two and threw a wild
pitch in his first relief appearance of the
season. Speculation is that Cain will be in
the bullpen regularly once ace Madison
Bumgarner returns from the disabled list.
Trade talk
The Giants struggles this season have led
to speculation that the team might be sellers
before the trade deadline. One of the players
who could end up with another team is
Cueto, though he downplayed any trade talk
following his latest rough outing. Im not
thinking about that right now, Cueto said.
For me, I want to stay here but they could
decide to trade me.

By Steven Wine
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
MIAMI Tampa Bay Rays prospect Brent
Honeywell was the only pitcher to throw more
than one inning in the All-Star Futures Game,
striking out four in two scoreless innings
Sunday to help a well-balanced United States
side past the World team 7-6 at Marlins Park.
Honeywell was the first of 10 pitchers for
the United States, and the group combined for
11 strikeouts. As prospect
A.J. Puk got the final out
for a save as the U.S. won
for the seventh time in the
past eight years.
By the fourth inning
the U.S. team had nine
hits, one by every
starter. The World team
had only one baserunner
Brent until the fifth, and by
Honeywell then the score was 7-0.
Josh Naylor of the Padres drove in the World
teams first run with a single in the fifth.
With the major league trade deadline
approaching, plenty of scouts were on hand for
the showcase of top minor league prospects,
which included 16 first-round picks.
You dont really realize how big this
game is until you look down, Rockies sec-
ond base prospect Brendan Rodgers said.
Its the first time Ive played with USA
across my chest. Being able to do that is a
lot of fun.
U. S. right-hander Michael Kopech
struck out Yoan Moncada on a 100.7-mph
fastball to end the third inning. Both are
in the White Sox organization. Brazilian
right-hander Thyago Vieira also surpassed

nicely for championship play beginning
Tuesday at Hillsborough Majors Field at
5:30 p.m. Kall, having thrown 51 pitches
Sunday, is the only Hillsborough pitcher
unavailable to throw Tuesday.
This is where, obviously, you want to be,
Doug Robbins said of advancing to the title
game through the winners bracket, meaning
Hillsborough needs just one more win to
claim the title, but must be defeated twice.
But we still have to win one more game.
While Hillsboroughs power came from
an unlikely source Sunday, the team has
been powering the ball plenty. In Saturdays
10-3 win over San Ramon in the Section 3
tourney opener, Kall went yard twice, run-
ning his total between District 52 and sec-
tion play to seven home runs.
Kalls first homer Saturday was a boom-
ing two-run shot amid a strong
Hillsborough statement to open the tour-
ney, with the first five hitters in the lineup
logging hits. Jumping out to a 5-0 lead in
the first, starting pitcher Thomas Egbert
took advantage of the early cushion, work-
ing 2 2/3 innings to earn the win.
Youve still got to get 18 outs but its
much more comfortable when youre up
early, Doug Robbins said.
Sundays matchup was much more tense
through the early going.
Union City jumped on top in the top of
the first, totaling three hits in the frame,
including an RBI single by Iomar Jimenez
to take a 1-0 lead.
Hillsborough answered back in the bot-
tom of the inning though. After Kall
slashed a one-out single to left, Conrad
Wilbur switched places with him on a field-
ers choice. Then with two outs, cleanup
hitter Kevin Macy drilled an RBI double to
right-center; Union City center fielder
Calen Morgan nearly
made an all-out running
catch but had the ball
clip off the webbing of
his glove, allowing
Wilbur to score all the
way from first to tie it 1-
1.
On the mound, Kall
Dylan Kall went on to strike out four
through 2 2/3 innings.
Spitzer-Wu struck out three, yielding one
unearned run in the fifth. In the sixth, he
was one pitch away from closing out the
game, but a two-out, two-strike hit batsman
caused Dough Robbins to go to reliever
Nathan Balch for the final out of the game.
Doug Robbins was keen to highlight
Hillsboroughs two-out hitting in the game.
All five of the teams runs scored with two
outs. The first-year All-Star manager also
made a point of saying he wasnt surprised by
Tollmanns show of power in the third inning,
something he showed on the defensive side of
the ball in the District 52 tournament.
In the second game of the tourney,
Tollmann produced an outfield assist for the
final out of the game June 25 in a con-
tentious 6-5 win of San Mateo National.
With the tying run looking to score from
second base on a sharp one-hop single to
center, Tollmann showed off his hammer
arm with a throw received by catcher
William Robbins on the fly. The throw got
to the plate so quickly the runner stopped
midway between third base and home with
William Robbins running him down for the
games final out.
The point we try to make is [Tollmann]
is a strong kid, Doug Robbins said. Hes a
mighty mite.

Hillsborough will play for the section
title Tuesday at Ashland LL Field at 6 p.m.,

P-Town Majors back in win column
After falling in the opener of the Section
3 Little League Majors All-Star Tournament
Saturday 8-5 to Canyon Creek of San
Ramon, Pacifica American bounced back in
the elimination bracket Sunday with a 7-5
win over Warm Springs of Fremont at Hall
Ranch/Veterans Park in Union City.
Pacifica rallied back from three runs down
with a power show in the fourth. Garrett
Carlson tied it with a two-run home run. Two
batters later, Henry White hit a solo shot to
give his team a 6-5 lead.
Right-hander Luca Dickinson entered in
relief in the first inning to turn in his finest
outing of the summer. He worked 5 2/3
innings, striking out 10 while totaling 69
pitches to earn the win.
Pacifica must win one more game through
the elimination bracket, Monday at 6 p.m.,
to advance to Tuesdays championship
round. To win the title, Pacifica would have
to defeat Canyon Creek twice in the champi-

Record-breaking Rahm wins Irish Open by 6 shots

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
PORTSTEWART, Northern Ireland Jon
Rahm enhanced his burgeoning reputation by
winning the Irish Open by six strokes and a
record tournament score on Sunday, shooting
a 7-under 65 in a final round marked by two
eagles and rules controversy.
The 22-year-old Rahm, one of the hottest
young players in world golf, holed out from
150 yards for eagle on No. 4 and strung
together four straight birdies from No. 7 to
turn what promised to be a tight final day into
a procession at Portstewart Golf Club.
The 11th-ranked Spaniard added a second
eagle with a long putt on the par-5 14th to put
more distance to his chasers, led by David
Drysdale following his course-record 63 early
Sunday.
Rahm finished on 24-under 264 overall
breaking the record to par by three shots
for a second victory of 2017, and in little
more than a year as a professional.
To actually play my best golf that I can
remember and shoot 24 under on this golf
course and win it by six, that is not something
I would have believed I was capable of, Rahm

said. I learned a lot about myself and its a
really, really special day.
His resounding victory on the links made
him believe his first major title could come in
two weeks time at the British Open at Royal
Birkdale.
PAUL CHILDS/REUTERS
It proves to me I can perform properly on a
links golf course and thats what Ive got to
take to The Open, Rahm said. I know now
that I have what it takes.
I know I can read the putts right, I know I
can interpret the wind and I can hit the shots
and I can manage myself around the golf
course properly enough to have a chance to
win The Open.
Rahm avoided being handed a two-shot
penalty for replacing his ball incorrectly on
the 6th green, following emails and calls from
TV viewers. Andy McFee, chief referee of the
European Tour, said Rahm made a reasonable
judgment after having moved his marker one
putter length to the side to get it off the line of
playing partner Daniel Im.
I know its a little suspicious sometimes
but I knowingly did it, Rahm said. I moved
my marker so it was not in the way of Daniels
and put it back, and when I replaced my ball I
thought it was in the same exact spot.
When told by McFee on the 13th hole that
there had been complaints, Rahm said: I told
him, Listen, if its a penalty stroke, let me
know now, Ill accept it.
Richie Ramsay (65) and Matthew Southgate
(66) were tied for second on 18 under, with
Drysdale tied for fourth alongside Justin Rose,
Ryan Fox and overnight joint-leader Im.
Ramsay, Fox and Drysdale qualified for the
British Open at Royal Birkdale, which starts

Nunes cites sinusitis for skipping 213 fight, Shevchenko said.

UFC bantamweight champion Amanda
Nunes blamed chronic sinusitis for her deci-
sion to drop out of her title defense at UFC
213 with just a few hours notice.
Nunes revealed her condition in postings
Sunday on Twitter and Instagram. Nunes made
a trip to the hospital on Saturday and decided
not to fight later that night, infuriating the
UFC and opponent Valentina Shevchenko.
Nunes, who beat Ronda Rousey in her last
bout, said she felt out of
breath during her weight
cut. She also felt off bal-
ance from the pressure in
my sinuses. I was not feel-
ing well enough to risk
getting punched in the

all my fans that came out to see me. Ill make
it up to you the next time I step in the cage.
UFC President Dana White and Shevchenko
sharply criticized Nunes for her decision,
which forced the promotion to scrap the main
event of its pay-per-view show. Shevchenko
ripped Nunes for attempting a drastic weight
cut, making her more susceptible to illness
and many other health problems.
You cant just say, I dont want to UFC 214 in Anaheim on July 29.

dleweight title with an entertaining unani-
mous decision over Yoel Romero in the new

ness to fight despite having no major injury

IOC balks at helping Rio with $35-40 million Olympic debt

RIO DE JANEIRO The IOC has

For Spider-Man: Homecoming, Sony Pictures returned to Spider-Mans teenage roots, casting Tom Holland in the part.
Spider-Man slings $117M debut

NEW YORK Spider-Man:
Homecoming swung past expecta-

million in North America and giving a
Sony Pictures a much needed hit.
Homecoming was one of the
biggest tests yet for the notion that
domestic moviegoers are growing
weary of sequels and reboots and suffer-

Homecoming kicks off the third
Spider-Man iteration in the last 15
years, and the second reboot since
2014s The Amazing Spider-Man,
with Andrew Garfield.
But Sony has kept Spider-Man air-
borne. For Homecoming, the studio
returned to Spider-Mans teenage roots,
casting Tom Holland in the part. Critics
and audiences responded, with many
calling Jon Watts iteration one of the
best Spider-Man films.
Sony also, for the first time, part-
nered with Kevin Feige and Marvel
Studios to produce the film and rope
Homecoming into Marvels wider ing and distribution. Its an incredible
cinematic universe. Robert Downey
Jr.s Tony Stark/Iron Man appears as

moviegoers, pushed Homecoming to

FEES
Continued from page 1
The council voted 4-1 last month to
amend its ordinance and provide a 50
percent fee discount for five projects
that initiated the planning process
prior to the rule going into effect last
year. The projects include the mixed-
use Essex at Central Park residential
building, Windy Hill Property
Ventures mixed-use commercial and
micro-apartment project at 405 E.
Fourth Ave., a Hampton Inn hotel pro-
posed at 2940 S. Norfolk St., a recent-
ly approved remodel of a commercial
property at 333 S. B St., and Franklin
Templeton Investments campus
extension.
Developers often cite the Bay Areas
extremely high cost of building and
note additional fees could be prohibi-
tive to ensuring a project pencils out.
City staff said they reached out to
each of the developers when the fees
were first proposed, but none respond-
ed with comments at the time.
Eventually, at least one of the develop-
ers complained.
The councils decision to provide a
discount came after the city was
approached by Franklin Templeton, a
global investment firm in the midst of
planning to construct the second
phase of its headquarters campus at
Bay Meadows. With certain entitle-
ments already in hand, Franklin
Templeton was surprised to find out
nearly $6 million in new linkage fees
would indeed apply to their expansion.
For months, the council met in
closed session to discuss what some
feared could turn into litigation. Lim
noted representatives from Franklin
Templeton lobbied each of the coun-
cilmembers and eventually the majori-
ty of the council opted to give a pass
to five developers.
Councilman Joe Goethals defended
the action noting the original ordi-
nance was silent on projects already in
the pipeline. Even with the recent
changes providing a 50 percent dis-
count, the city will still receive sup-
port for vital housing needs, he said.
Those are all projects that had their
applications in before we approved
and in some cases long before we ever
started talking about the commercial
linkage fees. Each of them is paying a
significant amount of money, mil-
lions of dollars into an affordable
housing fund, Goethals said. It was
really about fairness to our partners in
the community.
Goethals noted Franklin Templeton
has supported a range of local non-
profits and it could still contribute up
to $3 million in affordable housing
linkage fees, or less if it opts to pay
prevailing wages during construction,
according to the city.
A Franklin Templeton spokesman
noted the company has a long-stand-
ing presence in the community and its
simply finishing its campus project
that has been in the works for nearly
two decades.
As a result of the councils recent
decision, the company will be paying
millions of dollars in fees that will
support the affordable housing initia-
tive. We have also been a longtime
supporter of the San Mateo
Community in many other ways,
including Police Activities League,
Samaritan House and the Main Library
to name a few, the company said in an
email.
But Lim argued the developers had
the opportunity to weigh in early on,
with city staff going so far as to con-
tact them each directly. Lim said pro-
viding discounts sets a bad precedent,
particularly as he doubts a typical
homeowner would be provided the
same exemptions.
Councilwoman Maureen Freschet
noted Lim was absent during a compre-
hensive study session during which
the remaining councilmembers exam-
ined the history and complexity of
this issue. Although they could have
granted a full exemption, they decided
it would be fair and equitable just to
provide the discount.
It is common practice to exempt
applicants from fees resulting from
legislation passed after their projects
were already in the pipeline, Freschet
said in an email. This decision serves
the interests of the projects that were
already budgeted and in the works,
DATEBOOK
while recognizing how critically
important our new commercial linkage
fees are to generate revenue for afford-
able housing in our community.
The fees were one of the few areas on
which the council found unanimous
common ground over how to address
the regional housing crisis. The issue
peaked after the council disputed over
whether to implement tenant protec-
tions following the formation of a
housing task force. Ultimately, the
council agreed on linkage fees, which
developers pay as a way to offset their
impacts on affordable housing needs.
San Mateos fees per square foot of net
new development include $5 for retail
space, $10 for hotels and $25 for
offices.
When the council stalled on tenant
protection measures, a heated battle
ensued over a citizen-initiated ballot
measure to institute rent control. It
resulted in a divisive election wherein
Measure Q ultimately failed. The coun-
cil has since steered clear of taking fur-
ther action over any type of tenant
protections.
Lim said his colleagues decision to
now essentially refund the fees was
hypocritical as many hailed the ordi-
nance as an agreeable way to support
those facing displacement.
Compared to many neighboring
jurisdictions, San Mateo has been pro-
gressive in looking for means to
address the affordability crisis. It
approved new housing developments,
partnered with nonprofits to develop
city-owned lots into low-income hous-
ing, and has inclusionary zoning ordi-
nances requiring below-market-rate
units be incorporated into new proj-
ects.
But like many others trying to bal-
ance the impacts of growth along the
Peninsula, San Mateo has been under
tougher public scrutiny. The city has
had no shortage of housing proposals
and residents frequently rise in opposi-
tion citing fears new developments
will exacerbate parking and traffic
woes.
Lim, is not running for re-election
this November, said he fears the coun-
cils recent action doesnt bode well.
This is just the latest and most
shocking example of how weve basi-
cally just given in to developers and
without thought for whats best for the
community, Lim said. As a citizen, I
want to feel that my council is scruti-
nizing every decision and holding
developers not to a higher standard,
but the same standard weve held to our
community.

Iraqi leader congratulates troops in Mosul; fight goes on

By Susannah George
and Sinan Salaheddin
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
MOSUL, Iraq Prime Minister Haider al-
Abadi congratulated Iraqi troops Sunday in
the streets of Mosul for driving Islamic
State militants out of most of the city. But
airstrikes and sniper fire continued amid the
revelry, and the extremists stubbornly held
small patches of ground west of the Tigris
River.
Over the nearly nine-month campaign,
Iraqi forces backed by airstrikes from the
U.S.-led coalition reduced the IS hold on
Iraqs second-largest city to less than a
square kilometer (less than a mile) of terri-
tory.
Still, al-Abadi and Iraqi commanders
stopped short Sunday of declaring an out-
right victory against the extremists, who
have occupied Mosul for three years.
Losing Mosul would be a major defeat for
the Islamic State, which has suffered major
setbacks in the past year.
We are glad to see normal life return
for the citizens, al-Abadi said, accord-
ing to a statement from his office. This
is the result of the sacrifices of the (coun-
on the edge of Mosuls Old City to plant an
Iraqi flag on the western bank of the Tigris,
marking weeks of hard-fought gains in the
heart of the congested district.
Suddenly, two shots from an IS sniper
rang out, sending the men scrambling for
cover. The flag was retrieved and planted
farther upriver behind a wall that protected
it from a cluster of IS-held buildings nearby.
Weve been fighting this terrorist group
for 3 1/2 years now, said Lt. Gen. Abdul
Wahab al-Saadi of the special forces. Now
we are in Mosul, the east part was liberated,
and theres only a small part left in the
west.
Al-Saadi emphasized that despite the flag-
raising, the operation to clear Mosul of the
militants was ongoing. Behind him, a
group of soldiers and local journalists
recording the scene sang a traditional Iraqi
victory ballad.
Lt. Gen. Jassim Nizal of the armys 9th
Division said his forces achieved victory

Israeli list of unrecognized U.S. rabbis points to rift

By Ilan Ben Zion
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
JERUSALEM Israels Chief Rabbinate
has compiled a list of overseas rabbis
whose authority they refused to recognize
when it comes to certifying the Jewishness
of someone who wants to get married in
Israel.
The list, obtained by The Associated
Press, includes a number of prominent
Orthodox rabbis in North America. Among
them are a New York social activist who has
advocated for greater rights for women, a
Canadian rabbi who is friendly with Prime
Minister Justin Trudeau and a colleague of
the rabbi who converted Ivanka Trump.
The rabbinate, which oversees religious
rituals for Israeli Jews, such as weddings,
births and burials, would not say why it had
rejected the overseas rabbis credentials or
provide the criteria for securing their recog-
nition. But it insisted its decision would not
prevent them from re-applying in the future.
The list, which includes 160 rabbis from
24 countries, threatened to deepen a rift
between overseas Jewish communities and
Israeli religious authorities.
One of Israels chief rabbis, David Lau,
reacted angrily to the publication of the
list, saying it had been compiled by a low-
ranking bureaucrat without his knowledge.
How can it happen that a list is publi-
cized without notifying the rabbi, not about
the list or about its publication? a top aide
to Lau wrote in a letter to the rabbinates
director general.
He said it cannot be that a clerk decides
which rabbis are authorized. He also said the
list would cause severe ramifications and
harm to certain rabbis, and mainly to the
Chief Rabbinate of Israel.
The letter said Lau would deal with the
issue with utmost severity and expected
an explanation this week.
Tensions have already been mounting
between the worlds two largest Jewish
communities since the Israeli government
last month froze plans to create an expand-
ed egalitarian prayer section at Jerusalems
Western Wall, the holiest place where Jews
can pray.
