Dreamers wait as Trump, lawmakers joust

GOP House members insist that there is no DACA agreement
By Erica Werner and Jill Colvin
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON The fate of
800,000 young immigrants hung
in the balance Thursday as top law-
makers, White House officials and
President Donald Trump himself
squabbled over whether an agree-
ment had been struck to protect
them and if so, exactly what it
was.
In the face of an intense back-
lash from conservatives inside the
Capitol and out, Speaker Paul
Ryan and other GOP House mem-
bers adamantly insisted that there
was no agreement to enshrine pro-

John Cornyn of Texas, the No. 2

There was a deal to make a deal.
Trump himself said he was fair-
ly close to an agreement that
could protect the young
Dreamers while also adding bor-
der security, as long as his long-
promised wall with Mexico was
also separately addressed.
Democratic leaders Nancy Pelosi
and Chuck Schumer whose din-
ner with Trump Wednesday night
was at the heart of the controversy
insisted there was discussion
and even agreement on legislation
that would offer eventual citizen-

Trial set for former
cop accused of rape
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
A former San Mateo police officer accused
of sexually assaulting five women had three
charges dismissed and five reinstated and
will face trial early next year, according to
the San Mateo County District Attorneys
Office.
Of the 22 charges originally filed against
Noah Winchester, 33, 19 remain. The three
charges that were dismissed are related to
one of two Sacramento victims, and four
charges remain in that case, said District
Attorney Steve Wagstaffe.
The five counts that were reinstated with

first notified police of the alleged crimes,
Wagstaffe said.
Winchester, of Stockton, could face life
behind bars if convicted of the 19 felonies
alleging he sexually assaulted five women
between July 2013 and October 2015,
according to prosecutors. Winchester was
employed by the San Mateo Police
Department when he allegedly raped three
female victims in San Mateo in 2015; and

whale-killing fishing gear

By Ellen Knickmeyer
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Fisherman Jake Bunch leans over the side
of the fishing boat Sadie K, spears his
catch, and reels it aboard: an abandoned crab
pot, dangling one limp lasagna noodle of
kelp and dozens of feet of rope, just the kind
of fishing gear that has been snaring an
increasing number of whales off U.S.
coasts.
Confirmed counts of humpbacks, blue and
other endangered or threatened species of
whale entangled by the ropes, buoys and
anchors of fishing gear hit a record 50 on
the East Coast last year, and tied the record
on the West Coast at 48, according to the
National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration. The accidental entangle-
ments can gouge whales flesh and mouth,
weaken the animals, drown them, or kill
them painfully, over months.
This year, Bunch is one of small number
of commercial fishermen out of Half Moon

The crab gear goes back to Bunchs port,
which charges the original owners $100 for
returning the lost gear a bargain, com-
pared to the $250 a new pot costs.
California fishermen and port officials
working with the Nature Conservancy envi-
ronmental group developed the program,
designed to be affordable and easy enough
for ports to manage on their own.
West Coast fishermen annually lose thou-
sands of pots for Dungeness crabs, which
are a staple of Thanksgiving dinners and
community crab feeds across California.
Dungeness bring in tens of millions of
dollars in revenue in a good year. But they
also are the single-largest identifiable
source of fishing gear entangling whales on
the West Coast. Crab pots and the lines can
get carried away by waves or by vessels that
accidentally snag them. Sometimes fisher-
men abandon their pots or lose them.
On the East Coast, meanwhile, lobster
traps and gillnets are among the culprits in
whale entanglements.

The California fishermen are part of a new

State bill would require pet
stores to sell rescue animals
By Kathleen Ronayne
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SACRAMENTO California could
become the first state to ban the sale
of animals from so-called puppy
mills or mass breeding operations
under legislation sent Thursday to
Gov. Jerry Brown by lawmakers.
Animal rights groups are cheering
the bill by Democratic Assemblyman
Patrick ODonnell to require pet
stores to work with animal shelters
or rescue operations if they want to
sell dogs, cats or rabbit.
Thirty-six cities in California,
including Sacramento, Los Angeles
and San Francisco already have simi-
lar bans in place, but no statewide
bans exist.
Weve actually seen a thriving pet
industry based on the model of get-
ting these from shelters, said
Democratic Assemblyman Matt
Dababneh of Encino.
Brown spokesman Brian Ferguson
declined to comment on whether the
governor plans to sign it.
Private breeders would still be
allowed to sell dogs, cats and rabbits
directly to individuals.
Supporters of the bill say its aimed
at encouraging families and individ-
ual buyers to work directly with
breeders or to adopt pets in shelters.
It also would ensure animals are bred
and sold healthily and humanely, sup-
porters said.
Few pet stores in California are
still selling animals and many
already team up with rescue organiza-
tions to facilitate adoptions, accord-
ing to ODonnells office.
Californians spend more than
$250 million a year to house and
euthanize animals in our shelters,
ODonnell said in a statement.

house a home is an effort that makes

came from and to
publicly display
Jerry Brown that information.
A violation of the
law would carry a $500 civil fine.
Meanwhile, a bill seeking to phase
out fossil fuels in Californias energy
grid was struggling in the Assembly.
Assemblyman Chris Holden, D-
Pasadena, said the bill lacks support
and wont come up for a vote in the
Utilities and Energy Committee that
he leads. SB100 was written by
Senate President Pro Tem Kevin de
Leon, D-Los Angeles, who is pressur-
ing the Assembly to approve the bill
by Friday.
Several celebrities, including actor
Leonardo DiCaprio, have tweeted
their support this week.
A bill to require presidential candi-
dates to share their tax returns to be
allowed on the California primary
ballot cleared the Assembly, putting
it one step closer to becoming law. It
now needs final approval from the
Senate before going to Brown. If he
signs it, California would be the first
state with such a requirement after a
flurry of bills in other states stalled
earlier this year.
Other legislation sent
to Brown Thursday would:

In other action:
California lawmakers voted to add
school sexual assault response
guidelines to state law after a Trump
administration official said it would
roll back the rules at the federal
level. U. S. Education Secretary Betsy
DeVos last week announced she
would change guidance given to
schools under the Obama administra-
tion that she says is unfair to those
accused of sexual assault. The
Obama-era rules, issued in 2011,
require schools to find the accused
student responsible in sexual assault
investigations if more than half of
evidence points to their guilt. They
also require that trained employees
handle the cases. The California bill,
SB169, adds the rules to state law to
pre-empt DeVos decision to walk
them back.
The California Legislature has
moved one step closer to requiring
presidential candidates to release
their tax returns to appear on the
California ballot. After clearing the
Assembly on Thursday, the measure
needs final approval from the Senate

he signs it, California would be the

Forest Service spends
record $2B battling forest fires
WASHINGTON The Forest Service has spent more than
$2 billion battling forest fires around the country a record
as wildfires blacken the American West in one of the
nations worst fire seasons.
Wildfires have ravaged the West this summer with 64 large
fires burning across 10 states as of Thursday, including 21
fires in Montana and 18 in Oregon. In all, 48,607 wildfires
have burned nearly 13,000 square miles (33,586 square kilo-
meters).
The fires have stretched firefighting resources, destroyed
more than 500 homes and triggered health alerts as choking
smoke drifted into major Western cities.
The Forest Service, part of the U.S. Department of
Agriculture, is the nations primary firefighting agency.
Agriculture Secretary Sonny Perdue said the severe fire sea-
son means officials end up having to hoard all of the money
that is intended for fire prevention, because were afraid
were going to need it to actually fight fires.
The emphasis on firefighting means that money for pre-
scribed burns, insect control and other prevention efforts is
diverted to putting out fires in what Perdue called a self-
defeating cycle. The end result is that small trees and vege-
tation remain in the forest for future fires to feed on.
Thats wrong, and thats no way to manage the Forest
Service, Perdue said.
The Agriculture Department has been asking Congress for
years to change the way firefighting is funded so the Forest
Service does not have to raid non-fire programs in bad years.
One soldier killed, seven
injured in Fort Bragg training
FORT BRAGG, N.C. A training exercise involving
demolitions killed one special operations soldier and
injured seven others at the Armys largest base Thursday, just
a day after 15 Marines were hurt in a fire while training in
California.
The soldiers were taken to several hospitals, including the
Womack Army Medical Center on base for treatment, said Lt.
Col. Rob Bockholt, a spokesman for the U.S. Armys
Special Operations Command, which is based at Fort Bragg
in North Carolina.
Staff Sgt. Alexander P. Dalida, 32, of Dunstable,
Massachusetts, was killed during the exercise, Bockholt
said. The cause of death is under investigation. Dalida, who
enlisted in 2006, was assigned to 1st Special Warfare
Training Group (Airborne).
Bockholt didnt know the extent of the other soldiers
Initial reports said the injuries happened in an explosion,
but Bockholt says he could not confirm that.
There was an incident that occurred on one of the ranges,
Bockholt said, adding that the command is investigating.
Were looking into exactly what happened.
The soldiers were students from the John F. Kennedy
Special Warfare Center and School and they were at a range
on base, the Army said.
California county calls for
state aid to combat pot farms
SAN FRANCISCO A California state senator has asked
Gov. Jerry Brown to help a rural county deal with a dramatic
proliferation of illegal marijuana farms by declaring a state
of emergency.
Siskiyou County supervisors earlier declared a local emer-
gency after the sheriff said his department is outmanned by
the illegal farmers, who some residents complain are wreck-
ing the environment and attracting violent crime.
Emergency declarations give government officials flexibil-
ity to quickly react to natural disasters and other catastro-
phes and can lead to grants and other financial help.
Republican state Sen. Ted Gaines, who represents the
county, said on Wednesday that he formally asked the gover-
nor for the emergency declaration to compel state officials
to help Sheriff Jon Lopey in cracking down on the illegal
farms. Gaines said that could include making the California
National Guard available to help.

attacks on James Comey
By Eric Tucker
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON The Republican attacks that accompanied
the firing of FBI Director James Comey have sharply intensi-
fied in the last two weeks, with broadsides
delivered on Twitter, public statements and
even from the White House podium.
Comey, who in June said President
Donald Trump and the White House had
lied about him and the law enforcement
agency he led, has been repeatedly accused
of delivering false testimony, of prema-
turely exonerating Hillary Clinton for her
James Comey use of a private email server and of
improperly leaking details about his pri-
vate conversations with the president.
The attacks, which come as Congress and federal investiga-
tors probe the circumstances of his dismissal, appear clearly
designed to undercut the credibility of a veteran lawman
whose testimony and vivid first-person accounts loom as cen-
tral to special counsel Robert Muellers investigation.
Though Trumps lawyers over the summer had been mulling
ways to undermine the legitimacy of Muellers investigation,
the stepped-up salvos suggest White House officials and
Trumps legal team see Comey who, despite enjoying
broad support from within the FBI, also received bipartisan
criticism for his handling of the Clinton probe as a more
vulnerable target for attack.
Jay Sekulow, one of Trumps lawyers, told the Associated
Press this week that he did not consider Comey to be a credi-
ble witness and that there were multiple reasons for Comeys
firing.
Im not looking at this as a legal strategy. Im just dis- criticism that the president has failed

WASHINGTON President Donald

condemning white supremacists and

assertion that there were bad dudes
among the people who assembled to
oppose a white nationalist protest in
Charlottesville, Virginia, last month.

with Schumer and Pelosi Chuck and

the fate of nearly 800,000 people

The resolution, passed by Congress
earlier this week, condemns the vio-
lence and domestic terrorist attack that
took place in Charlottesville as well
as white supremacists, neo-Nazis and
other hate groups.
It also urges the president and his
administration to speak out against
hate groups that espouse racism,
extremism, xenophobia, anti-
Semitism and white supremacy, and
calls on the Justice Department and
other federal agencies to use all
resources available to address the
growing prevalence of those groups.

At a crossroads
By Tim Hilborn
I
t seems as though our country is again
at an ideological crossroads in regard
to racism, hate and intolerance.
As a towheaded California boy I spent
my summers in Columbia, Missouri, north
of the Mason-Dixon line living with my
grandma. It was a different world and expe-
rience to say the least. My grandma used
the N word naturally and freely in her
conversations with me. I remember the rst
time she did this I looked at my mom horri-
ed and she just gave me the dont make
waves look.
It wasnt long after that I had to call both
my mom and grandma out on the use of that
word. I was a little kid who had to step up
to these role models of mine. I was taught
in school this language was not OK. My
Grandma begrudgingly obliged and altered
her vocabulary.
As I grew older and began paying atten-
tion to the local paper it became evident
that this little college town had a not so
nice alter ego. After blistering hot
evenings, the folks on the other side of
town, as the local paper explained, would
be out late into the night opening re
hydrants and causing trouble for the police
and remen. Those people and the
blacks were the trouble of the town. Stay
away from that part of town especially at
night the paper advised. As I read the
paper day after day it was clear that it,
along with the police department and a lot
of the locals, had no qualms about placing
stereotypical blame on a single racial
group. This was in the mid-80s. The paper
failed to mention that the trouble never
started until the police showed up or that

The three hottest years ever recorded were

of climate change will cost each of us in

and in lost work for asthma, allergy, heat-

the re hydrants were
magically shut off before
the local re department
had to come out. The
views of that community
were truly backwards in
so many ways. Im sure
this was a small sam-
pling of what was, and
still goes on in some
communities throughout this country.
Although we are not born with hate, fear
and misunderstanding of others, it can
quickly be learned and indoctrinated into
culture, our society and ourselves. The
events in Charlottesville, locally in San
Francisco and Berkeley, and other places
around our nation are an extension of this
ideological development. The groups of
counter-protesters are trying to send a clear
message that this way of thinking and act-
ing will not be tolerated. And although
both groups are allowed to voice their
opinions, violence will sometimes domi-
nate the narrative.
I would appeal to these counter-protesters
and their respective groups to look at com-
bining their efforts into a larger collective
movement that could have the potential as
a stronger and more effective sociopoliti-
cal inuence. Groups like Black Lives
Matter, Equality Foundation, Human Rights
Campaign, Interaction, Islamic Society of
America and other interested stakeholders
in the future of our nation should come
together to share their commonality mov-
ing forward.
By establishing an umbrella organiza-
tion that focuses on collective human
rights, these groups could have a much
more cohesive and focused movement that
would inherently bring a much larger polit-

This is not to say that each group should

collectively there could be potential for a
much greater movement toward human

elimination of these hate groups that have
begun to make a comeback. A political
extension of these groups could ultimately

a case in point. The University of Cape
Town statue of Cecil Rhodes, the hated
British arch-imperialist, was pulled down

Mugabe of Zimbabwe (formerly Rhodesia)
was consulted about tearing down Rhodes
statue in his country. Mugabe, arguably
one of the most corrupt and racist presi-

do it, telling his countrymen that history
cannot be washed away.
Indeed, history is to be learned from, not

is something to be proud of. Education, not

The Blind Pool
a timely thriller
P aul McHugh is certainly on the move
these days.
The Redwood City author is on the road to
talk about his latest book, The Blind Pool,
released last month on ElkHeart Books.
After a reading at the Palo Alto Books, Inc.
on Friday, McHugh headed up to Mendocino
for a reading and is planning to go to
Washington, D.C., to connect with segments
of the press corps there. McHugh is also
planning to go to Florida and even interna-
tionally to talk about the book, which makes
sense since its setting is international and
also in Florida, in the very Keys that were
just hit hard by Hurricane Irma.
The book itself is cinematic in its intensi-
ty and its ability
to sway back
and forth
between four
protagonists
constantly in
peril and con-
nected in a mul-
titude of ways.
Though
movielike, it is
imbued with a
sense of reality,
in that its vio-
lence has conse-
quences and
even its heroes
are not immune
to post-traumatic stress disorder. While it
isnt surprising that McHugh said a couple of
studios have expressed interest, the work is
primarily literary with realistic action that
moves quickly but shaded by a sense of real-
ism only a writing craftsman can portray.
It deals primarily with Russian oligarchs
and connections deep into the U.S. govern-
ment and even private prison system, out of
which an organized crime ring operates.
While the book is not political, there are
shades of ripped from the headlines in that
much of our nations attention is on possible
Russian interference into our political sys-
tem.
McHugh said he nished a draft of the book
in 2015 and also wrote what could be consid-
ered now as a prequel. Though his themes
were speculative back then, reality took
over.
As though a chrome ball on the roulette
wheel bounced straight into the slot that I
happened to bet on, he said.
Id like to call it a taut thriller by former
anchorman Dan Rather beat me to the punch
in his description, A taut thriller by a terric
storyteller. The political headlines of today
make it timely as hell, Rather said.
While thrillers typically dont land on my
nightstand, the book keeps the reader going
back and forth between scenes and characters
diving further into the underbelly of the
international crime organization. While
there is humor in the book, it is completely
natural and compelling and serves to break up
the rising and falling tension and, quite
frankly, horrible circumstances and the pro-
tagonists struggle to survive and beat the
bad guys.
The book comes on the heels of
Deadlines, also a thriller yet set in San
Mateo County that incorporated McHughs
multiple decades of work as an outdoor writer
for the San Francisco Chronicle. This book,
however, draws not from his journalism
career, but rather his journalistic instinct in
getting to the bottom of a story and reveal-
ing it in a meaningful and veriable way.
There are no zombies in this thriller, it
delves into realistic societal issues by
exploring kleptocratic oligarchies and their
impact. Those who become immersed in that
impact try to stop it from within regardless
of the short-term risk and long-term effects.
While thrillers are known to be simple, this
story is complex as complex as the char-
acters and situations described adeptly in this
book.
While McHugh calls Redwood City home,
he is certainly on the move to talk about his
work and share his insights with others. And
we can only hope that he keeps moving on
his literary journey.

Dow ekes out record, other indexes struggle

By Marley Jay
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK It was a split
decision on Wall Street on
Thursday as gains in a handful of
industrial and health care compa-
nies largely outweighed sluggish-
ness elsewhere in the market,
including the technology sector.
Sizable gains by Boeing and
United Technology were enough
to push the Dow Jones industrial
average to another record, but
other major indexes fell.
Retailers were also weak after
the government said prices paid
by consumers jumped in August.

Equifax victims may face another hassle in buying an iPhone

By Ken Sweet
and Michael Liedtke
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK Apple fans who
froze their credit after the Equifax
data breach may end up with anoth-
er hassle on their hands if they try
to get one of the new iPhones that
can cost more than $1,000. People
who rushed to lock down their cred-
it and want to make any other big
purchases may find the same incon-
veniences.
Since Equifax disclosed that 143
million Americans had their Social
Security numbers and other person-
al data hacked, experts have encour-
aged people who may affected to put
in place whats known as a credit
freeze. That locks down a persons
credit from being stolen by identity
thieves but could also mean
delays and more fees for Equifax vic-
tims who want to finance a new
phone. You can unfreeze your credit
before a big purchase and freeze it
again afterward. How long it will
take and how much it costs vary
state by state. Experts say generally
its best to give the major credit
bureaus TransUnion, Experian
and Equifax notice of several
hours or even a few days before you
apply for financing. And people
just getting used to the idea of freez-
ing their credit could pay $3 to $10
for each action at each of the three
bureaus.
Payment plans are a growing
business for the major wireless car-
riers, many of which no longer sub-
sidize a customers purchase,
because a monthly payment makes
an expensive smartphone more
affordable. And Apple and the wire-
less carriers often need access to
your credit report in order to
approve the sale of a new phone
under a monthly plan.
But if you are someone who has
frozen their credit record, you may
suddenly discover that you cant
afford an iPhone X, after all, said
Patrick Moorhead, an industry ana-
lyst with Moor & Insights.
Providence, Rhode Island-based
Citizens Financial Group, which
runs the Apple financing program,
said any new or existing customer
who has a credit freeze on their
information will be declined financ-
ing. So they would have to unfreeze
their credit, at least temporarily.
Sprint, Verizon, T-Mobile and AT&T
run credit checks with the agencies
for new customers. Policies vary for
existing customers.
Analysts say two-year financing
plans have become essential to sell-
ing high-end smartphones.
International Data Corp. analyst
Ramon Llamas called them criti-
cal. Moorhead expects virtually
everyone interested in the new
iPhone X, which rolls out later this
year, to use an installment plan.
Apple rolled out its program two
years ago that lets customers
upgrade to a new phone each year
and divides the cost of the phone
into a monthly payment. The com-
pany doesnt share details on how
many customers finance their
phones through Citizens/Apple
instead of their carriers, and
declined to disclose how many of its
iPhones are financed.
For other carriers, its clearly big
business. AT&T sold 3.58 million
smartphones to customers under
payment plans last quarter, accord-
ing to its most recent filing.
Verizon customers financed $14.51
billion in smartphones under the
companys payment plan in the
first six months of 2017, and
roughly half its customers who pay
a cellphone bill at the end of each
month are on a payment plan.

Google hit with class Business briefs

action lawsuit over gender pay
MENLO PARK Google faces a new law-
suit accusing it of gender-based pay dis-
crimination. A lawyer representing three
female former Google employees is seek-
ing class action status for the claim.
The suit, filed Thursday in San Francisco
Superior Court, follows a federal labor
investigation that made a preliminary find-
ing of systemic pay discrimination among
the 21,000 employees at Googles head-
quarters in Mountain View. The initial
stages of the review found women earned
less than men in nearly every job classifi-
cation.
Google disputes those findings and says
its analysis shows no gender pay gap.
The suit, led by lawyer James Finberg of
Altshuler Berzon LLP, is on behalf of three
women Kelly Ellis, Holly Pease and
Kelli Wisuri who all quit after being put
on career tracks that they claimed would pay
them less than their male counterparts. The
suit aims to represent thousands of Google
employees in California and seeks lost
wages and a slice of Googles profits.
I have come forward to correct a perva-
sive problem of gender bias at Google,
Ellis said in a statement. She says she quit
Google in 2014 after male engineers with
similar experience were hired to higher-
paying job levels and she was denied a pro-
motion despite excellent performance
reviews. It is time to stop ignoring these
issues in tech.
Google spokeswoman Gina Scigliano
said the company will review the suit in
detail, but we disagree with the central
allegations.
Job levels and promotions are deter-
mined through rigorous hiring and promo-
tion committees, and must pass multiple
levels of review, including checks to make
sure there is no gender bias in these deci-
sions, she said.
Nestle buys into high-end
coffee buzz with Blue Bottle

Donald Trump jokingly pretends to take a bite from a sandwich as he, First Lady Melania Trump, second right, and Vice
President Mike Pence, left, distribute food to Hurricane Irma victims in Naples, Fla.
Trump dispenses hoagies and
handshakes in hurricane zone
By Catherine Lucey
and Ken Thomas
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NAPLES, Fla. President Donald
Trump doled out hoagies and hand-
shakes in the sweltering Florida heat
on Thursday as he took a firsthand tour
of Irmas devastation and liberally dis-
pensed congratulatory words about the
federal and state recovery effort.
Trump, who was in and out of the
state in about three hours, got an aerial
view of the water-deluged homes along
Floridas southwestern coast from his
helicopter, then drove in his motorcade
along streets lined with felled trees,
darkened traffic lights and shuttered
stores on his way to a mobile home
community hit hard by the storm.
Walking along a street in Naples
Estates with his wife, Melania, the
president encountered piles of broken
siding and soggy furniture sitting on a
front porch, and residents and volun-
teers who were happy to get a presiden-
tial visit.

U.S. extends Iran sanctions relief
By Matthew Lee
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON The Trump admin-
istration on Thursday extended sanc-
tions relief to Iran, avoiding imminent
action that could implode the landmark
2015 nuclear deal, even as President
Donald Trump and Secretary of State
Rex Tillerson accused Tehran of not
respecting the entire agreement.
The extensions of the waivers on
nuclear sanctions, first issued by the
Obama administration, were accompa-
nied by new penalties imposed against
11 Iranian people and companies
accused of supporting Irans ballistic
missile program or involvement in
cyber-attacks against the U.S. finan-
cial system.
The combination of steps known
internally as waive and slap came
as the administration nears comple-
tion of a monthslong review of its Iran
policy that is expected next month,

As he left the state, Trump told
reporters on Air Force One that he
planned another hurricane-related trip,
to Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin
Islands, which were both badly hit by
Irma.
I spoke to both governors. Weve
got it very well covered, Trump said.
Virgin Islands was really hit. They
were hit about as hard as Ive ever
seen.
The president brushed off a question
about whether the recent hurricanes had
made him rethink his views on climate
change, which he has previously dis-
missed as a hoax. He said: If you go
back into the 1930s and the 1940s, and
you take a look, weve had storms over
the years that have been bigger than
this.
Trump earlier met with federal and
state leaders in Fort Myers, where he
was brimming with enthusiasm for the
state and federal response effort, call-
ing it a team like very few people have
seen.

October 15 when
Trump must inform

In comments to reporters aboard Air
Force One, Trump repeated his cam-
paign pronouncement that the deal is
bad and again said he believes Iran is
violating its terms and spirit.
The Iran deal is one of the worst
deals Ive ever seen, he said. Not a
fair deal to this country. Its a deal that
should have never ever been made.

The president couldnt resist inject-
ing a political flavor into his visit,
telling reporters in Fort Myers that he
was hopeful that Florida Gov. Rick

Trumps visit offered him the chance
to see how people are coping with
Irmas aftermath and how the Federal
Emergency Management Agency is
responding. Many Florida residents
remain swamped and without electrici-
ty. Nearly 2.7 million homes and busi-
nesses, about 1 in 4 Florida customers,
were still without power Thursday.

suggested, politics wasnt far from the
surface in Florida, the largest and most
pivotal state in recent presidential
elections. Trump defeated Democrat

ments but they have also violated the
spirit of that deal.
Speaking in London at a joint news
conference with British Foreign
Secretary Boris Johnson., Tillerson
told reporters the administrations
approach to Iran could not be deter-
mined on the basis of the nuclear
accord alone.
We must take into account the total-
ity of Iranian threats, not just its
nuclear capabilities, he said, citing
obligations to uphold regional and
international security.
Iran is clearly in defiance of these
obligations, Tillerson said, pointing
to its support of Syrian President
Bashar Assads government, cyber
activity and testing of ballistic mis-
siles.
The White House did not issue a
statement announcing the extension
of the sanctions waivers and left it to
the State Department to make the

Seniors fight heat with
Popsicles, compresses
By Terry Spencer and Jay Reeves
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
HOLLYWOOD, Fla. Florida seniors were ushered out of
stifling assisted-living centers Thursday while caregivers
fought a lack of air conditioning with Popsicles and cool
compresses after eight people died at a nursing home in the
post-hurricane heat.
Dozens of the states senior centers still lacked electrici-
ty in the aftermath of Hurricane Irma, and several facilities
were forced to evacuate. While detectives sought clues to
the deaths, emergency workers went door to door to look for
anyone else who was at risk.
Fifty-seven residents were moved from a suburban Fort
Lauderdale assisted-living facility without power to two
nearby homes where power had been restored. Owner Ralph
Marrinson said all five of his Florida facilities lost electric-
ity after Irma. Workers scrambled to keep patients cool with
emergency stocks of ice and Popsicles.
FPL has got to have a better plan for power, he said,
referring to the states largest utility, Florida Power &
Light. Were supposed to be on a priority list, and it does-
nt come and it doesnt come, and frankly its very scary.
Stepped-up safety checks were conducted around the state
after eight deaths at the Rehabilitation Center at Hollywood
Hills, which shocked Floridas top leaders as they surveyed
destruction from the punishing storm.
Older people can be more susceptible to heat because
their bodies do not adjust to temperatures as well as those of
younger people. They do not sweat as much and are more
likely to have medical conditions that change how the body
responds to heat. They are also more likely to take medica-
tion that affects body temperature.
Most people who die from high body temperature, known
as hyperthermia, are over 50, according to the National
Institutes of Health.

House backs bill targeting
gangmembers for deportation
WASHINGTON The House on Thursday backed legisla-
tion that would make membership in a criminal gang
grounds for deportation as Republicans warned of the dan-
gers of the violent street gang MS-13.
The measure passed on a largely party-line vote of 233-
Gang Member Removal Act, but it faces uncertain
prospects in the Senate.
MS-13 has been blamed for 21 deaths in the suburbs east
of New York City in the past 21 months. The killings,
many of which have involved teenagers, have caught the
attention of both President Donald Trump and Attorney
General Jeff Sessions, both of whom have visited Long
Island in recent months to promise federal action to stem
the violence.
Proponents of the House measure described it as a critical
tool for law enforcement as the bill gives the Department
of Homeland Security the power to designate a group of
five or more people as a criminal gang. Those immigrants
determined to have participated in the gang or have fur-
thered its illegal activity can be detained and deported.
MS-13 has turned my district into killing fields. In the
last year-and-a-half, 17 innocent young people have been
slaughtered with machetes and knives by MS-13, said
Rep. Peter King, R-N.Y. This is the immigrant communi-
ty that is being turned into a chamber of horrors by MS-
13.
For Red Cross, hurricanes
bring both donations and criticism
NEW YORK Confronted with back-to-back major hur-
ricanes, the American Red Cross has received a huge out-
pouring of financial support and a simultaneous barrage
of criticism based on its struggles to respond to several
past disasters.
To date, combined donations to the Red Cross for hurri-
canes Harvey and Irma have topped $300 million. Former
President Barack Obama tweeted a link to a Red Cross
fundraising site. Many pro sports teams, celebrities and
major corporations have announced large donations.
Yet even in the early stages of the response to Harvey in
Texas, a NoRedCross hashtag circulated widely on Twitter.
Some prominent journalists wrote articles suggesting that
people should not donate to the organization. The New
York Times, in an editorial, urged prospective donors to be
skeptical.
Its record on large-scale operations is spotty, said the
editorial, asserting that there has been less accountabili-
ty than Americans might expect emanating from its grand
marble headquarters in Washington.
The criticism has been stinging to Red Cross volunteers,
many of whom have taken to social media to rebut the neg-
ative commentary.

North Korea fires missile over Japan in longest-ever flight
By Kim Tong-Hyung and Foster Klug
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SEOUL, South Korea North Korea
fired an intermediate-range missile over
Japan into the northern Pacific Ocean on
Friday, U.S. and South Korean militaries
said, its longest-ever such flight and a
clear message of defiance to its rivals.
Since President Donald Trump threatened
the North with fire and fury in August,
Pyongyang has conducted its most power-
ful nuclear test and launched two missiles
of increasing range over U.S. ally Japan. It
tested its first-ever intercontinental ballis-
tic missiles in July.
The growing frequency, power and confi-
dence displayed by these tests seems to
DACA
Continued from page 1
We agreed it would be the DREAM Act,
Schumer told reporters, referring to a bipar-
tisan bill that would allow immigrants
brought here as children and now in the U.S.
illegally to work their way to citizenship in
as little as five years if they meet certain
requirements.
But one person familiar with the meeting
said the president had agreed not to the
DREAM Act, but to narrower legislation
that would make permanent the protections
offered by President Barack Obamas
Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals pro-
gram.
What was clear was that the outcome for
the Dreamers themselves was still unre-
solved and subject to much further debate
and negotiation and that the politics of
immigration, which has defeated Congress
for years, remained as tricky and explosive
as ever. After winning the White House on a
campaign that was remarkably harsh toward
immigrants and revolved around construc-
tion of an enormous wall along the entire
border with Mexico, Trumps sudden pivot
infuriated some of his closest allies, and
seemed to contain more potential to alien-
ate his base than any of his other uncon-
ventional moves.
He was so explicit during the campaign
NATION/WORLD
confirm what governments and outside
experts have long feared: North Korea is
closer than ever to its goal of building a
military arsenal that can viably target both
U.S. troops in Asia and the U.S. homeland.
This, in turn, is meant to allow North
Korea greater military freedom in the
region by raising doubts in Seoul and
Tokyo that Washington would risk the
annihilation of a U.S. city to protect its
Asian allies.
South Koreas Joint Chiefs of Staff said
the missile traveled about 3,700 kilome-
ters (2,300 miles) and reached a maximum
height of 770 kilometers (478 miles).
North Korea has repeatedly vowed to
continue these tests amid what it calls U.S.
hostility by which it means the pres-
on the issue of the border wall and border
security that if he were to backtrack on that
promise I dont think hed have a single
friend left in the country. Democrats arent
going to support him and he would lose the
entire Republican base, said GOP Rep. Tom
McClintock of California. This was a core
explicit and graphically clear promise he
made to the American people.
At this point, who DOESNT want Trump
impeached? conservative commentator
Ann Coulter remarked over Twitter.
Administration officials quickly recog-
nized the danger in the backlash, and the
White House shifted into damage control
mode, with press secretary Sarah Huckabee
Sanders denying a deal had been struck or
the wall excluded from it. Some also won-
dered aloud on Thursday whether the presi-
dent was aware of the minutiae of the
DREAM Act legislation discussed on
Wednesday, including the fact that it
includes an eventual path to citizenship.
Were not looking at citizenship, were
not looking at amnesty. Were looking at
allowing people to stay here, Trump told
reporters as he traveled to view hurricane
damage in Florida.
But very importantly, what we want: We
have to have a wall, Trump said. If we
dont have a wall, were doing nothing.
Despite Trumps denial, two people
briefed on Wednesday nights proceedings
said that citizenship was explicitly men-
tioned when Democrats raised the DREAM
ence of tens of thousands of U.S. troops in
Japan and South Korea. Robust diplomacy
on the issue has been stalled for years, and
theres little sign that senior officials from
Pyongyang and Washington might sit
down to discuss ways to slow the Norths
determined march toward inclusion among
the worlds nuclear weapons powers.
Fridays missile, which triggered sirens
and warning messages in northern Japan
but caused no apparent damage to aircraft
or ships, was the second fired over Japan
in less than a month. North Korea conduct-
ed its sixth and most powerful nuclear test
on Sept. 3.
The missile was launched from Sunan,
Pyongyangs international airport and the
origin of the earlier missile that flew over
Act. Budget Director Mick Mulvaney, who
was among the group dining on Chinese
food (a Schumer favorite) in the White
House Blue Room, spoke up to say that the
bill does include a pathway to citizenship,
according to the people briefed, who spoke
on condition of anonymity to disclose the
private proceedings.
Another person familiar with the meeting
said that as the president and Schumer were
going back and forth, hashing out the con-
fines of the agreement, the president kept
referencing DACA, while Schumer kept
talking about the DREAM Act. After
Mulvaney piped in to make clear the dis-
tinction, the president signaled he under-
stood the difference and was talking about
DACA, the person said.
Exactly what Trump and Schumer agreed to
is unclear. But the posture struck by Ryan
and others on Capitol Hill seemed designed
to protect the president from a backlash
from his conservative base. Ryan energeti-
cally disputed the idea that any deal had
been struck, though his argument seemed to
turn largely on semantic distinctions.
These were discussions not negotia-
tions, there isnt an agreement, Ryan said.
The president wasnt negotiating a deal
last night. The president was talking with
Democratic leaders to get their perspective.
I think the president understands that hes
going to have to work with the congres-
sional majorities to get any kind of legisla-
tive solution.
THE DAILY JOURNAL
Japan. Analysts have speculated the new
test was of the same intermediate-range
missile launched in that earlier flight, the
Hwasong-12.
That missile is linked to North Koreas
declaration that it means to contain the
U. S. Pacific island territory of Guam,
which is the home of important U.S. mili-
tary assets and appears well within the
Hwasong-12s range.
Fridays missile test was met with the
usual outrage. Japanese Prime Minister
Shinzo Abe and U.S. Defense Secretary Jim
Mattis both called the launch a reckless
act. The U.N. Security Council scheduled
an emergency closed-door meeting to be
held Friday afternoon in New York. Trump
has not commented.
For their part, immigrant advocates and
Latino lawmakers reacted cautiously, with
several saying that any celebration would
be premature. Many immigrants have been
consumed by worry since Trump announced
last week that he was ending DACA, which
has granted temporary work permits and
deportation relief to hundreds of thousands
of immigrants brought here as minors.
In New York, Martin Batalla Vidal, who
came to the U.S. with his parents when he
was 7, said hes taken college classes, does
meaningful nursing home work and pays
taxes. He spoke at a rally by civil rights
groups.
Trump gave Congress six months to come
up with a solution before the protections
would end, although what he would actually
do absent congressional action is uncer-
tain. Despite promising to end DACA on
Day One of his administration, Trump has
struggled openly with the question of what
to do about this sympathetic group of
young immigrants.
Trump has appeared to enjoy his new-
found luster as a bipartisan dealmaker since
a disaster-and-debt deal he struck with
Pelosi and Schumer last week stunned
Washington and garnered a stack of positive
headlines. Schumer, too, clearly relishes
the dealmaking; he was caught on a live
microphone on the Senate floor Thursday
gleefully telling Majority Leader Mitch
McConnell, R-Ky.: He likes us! He likes
me, anyway.

Menlo has done some reinventing of its
own on offense. But the anchor of the

This D-line is by far the best that Ive

Tevis has picked up right where he left off

CLEVELAND The Cleveland Indians added
a walk-off win to a streak that has had every-
thing.
Jay Bruce hit an RBI double in the 10th
inning as the Indians rallied for their 22nd
straight win to extend their AL record, beating
the Kansas City Royals 3-2
on Thursday night to move
within four wins of match-
ing the 1916 New York
Giants for the longest
streak in major league his-
tory.
After blowouts, shutouts
and oh-so-easy wins, the
Jay Bruce Indians, who tied it in the
ninth on Francisco
Lindors two-out, two-strike RBI double, went
into extras for the first time to keep the longest
streak in 101 years intact.
Ramirez led off the 10th with a hard hit into
right-center off Brandon Maurer (2-2) that he
turned into a double with a head-first slide. After
Edwin Encarnacion walked, Bruce, the recent
arrival who hit a three-run homer in win No. 21
on Wednesday, ripped a 2-0 pitch into the right-
field corner.
As Progressive Field shook like it usually
does in October, Bruce reached second base and
was quickly mobbed his teammates, who doused
him with ice water and talcum powder while tear-
ing the front of his jersey.
These Indians arent stopping for anything.
Down to their last strike in the ninth, the
Indians rallied to tie it at 2 off closer Kelvin
Herrera, with Lindor delivering his clutch shot
off the left field wall, just above the leap of four-
time Gold Glove winner Alex Gordon, to score
pinch-runner Erik Gonzalez from first.
As Lindors ball caromed off the wall and
rolled slowly across the grass in left field,
30,874 fans who have watched the Indians over-
power teams for the last three weeks, soon saw
the AL Central leaders pull off their most dramat-
ic win this season.

Lincoln-SF (2-0) at
Carlmont (3-0), 7:30 p.m. Friday
The Lincoln Mustangs beat Santa Cruz 21-
10 last week. The Scots struck for a 30-10
win over Mountain View. Lincoln finished
second in the Academic Athletic Association
last season behind Mission, but beat the
Bears in the AAA championship game to
advance to a Nor Cal title game. The
Mustangs have scored 21 points in each of
its first two games. Lincoln is averaging
just 19 yards passing per game. Its offense is
led by RB Desean Crawford, who is averaging
127 yards rushing per game. Carlmont is
rushing for more than 300 yards per game.
The combination of Demarii Blanks and
Julian Morin are proving to be unstoppable.
The two combine to average more than 300
yards rushing per game. Through three
games, Carlmont is averaging 44 points
while allowing 15.
Yerba Buena (0-2) at Mills (1-2), 7:30 p.m.
The Yerba Buena Aztec Warriors were buried
by San Lorenzo Valley last week, 46-0.
The Vikings snapped a five-game losing
streak dating to last season with a 41-6 win
over Lynbrook. This is the fourth straight
year these teams have met. Mills owns a 2-1
record, posting wins of 51-13 last season and
35-17 in 2014. Yerba Buena won the 2015
matchup, 38-18. Through two games,
Yerba Buena is averaging about 250 yards of
offense per game. QB Paul Heng
Phravixay leads the Aztec Warriors offense.
He has rushed for 205 yards in two games,
averaging nearly 14 yards a carry, but he is
only 5 for 27 for 100 yards with a TD and
seven interceptions throwing the ball.
The 41 points scored was a season high for
Mills and the most points the Vikings have
scored since Week 4 last year when they
beat Yerba Buena. The six points allowed
was the fewest the Vikings have allowed
since a 2016 Week 3 shutout of Andrew Hill,
33-0.
San Mateo (3-0) vs. Mission (1-1) at
Kezar Stadium, 7:15 p.m. Friday
The Mission Bears are coming off a 28-18
Footballs best bets
loss to Oakland Tech last week. The
Bearcats stayed undefeated in 2017 with a
dominant 34-0 win over Los Altos. San
Mateo posted a 28-25 win over Mission last
season. Mission captured the AAA league
title last season, falling in the AAA champi-
onship game. The Bears are almost an aux-
iliary member of the PAL, having scheduled
several PAL teams during preseason over the
last number of years. San Mateo is averag-
ing less than 300 yards offense per game so
far this season, but the Bearcats are efficient.
QB Jose Ontiveros has thrown seven touch-
downs without an interception. Ontiveros
may have to step up his game, along with the
rest of the San Mateo offense if DeHay Allen
cant go. He suffered an injury in last weeks
win. Defensively, the Bearcats have been
nails. Theyve allowed a total of 22 points
through three games and have picked off
eight passes.
South City (0-3) at
Burlingame (3-0), 7:30 p.m. Friday
The Warriors were whipped by Aragon last
week, 35-0. The Panthers plastered
Alvarez, 49-0. South City took
Burlingame by surprise in 2016, topping the
Panthers 49-40. Last week was the first
game in which South City was outclassed.
The Warriors had a lead going into the fourth
quarter of their season opener against San
Mateo, but gave up the ghost. Two weeks
ago, the Warriors were nipped by Capuchino,
37-36. Burlingame has scored 54, 48 and

Defensively, the Panthers defense has already
tossed a pair of shutouts. Burlingame is
averaging 283 yards rushing per game.

Capuchino posted a 40-30 win as the

title. Capuchinos feel-good 2-0 start was
given a reality check by HMB last week.
The shutout was the first suffered by the
Mustangs since opening the 2016 season
with a 19-0 loss to Woodside. This is the
first time Hillsdale has been 3-0 to start a sea-

Judge: Convicted
rapist can play
football, for now
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio A judge has decid-
ed a man convicted of rape as a teen in a high-
ly publicized Ohio case will be temporarily
reinstated on the Youngstown State University
football team after he filed suit against the
school in federal court.
U.S. District Judge Benita Pearson granted
Malik Richmond, of Steubenville, a tempo-
rary restraining order against the university in
a hearing on Thursday, allowing him to play
football again for the next 14 days. She has
scheduled a preliminary hearing for an injunc-
tion on Sept. 28.
Richmond filed a federal lawsuit against the
university Wednesday after the school allowed
him to join the football team as a walk-on and
then told him he couldnt play this season.
Hes seeking reinstatement to the teams
active roster along with attorney fees and an
unspecified amount of damages.
One of Richmonds attorneys, Susan Stone,
said in the lawsuit that the university had
become infected with an anti-male bias due to
Richmonds rape conviction.
Stone argued Thursday that the university
was contractually obliged to allow Richmond
to play so long as he followed university
rules. She said the university hurt Richmonds
football career prospects by curtailing his
exposure to professional scouts at the peak of
his abilities, and that the restraining order was
necessary to prevent Richmond from losing
any more playing time.
An attorney representing the university,
Christina Corl, countered that the university
didnt violate any contractual obligations to
Richmond because he didnt take advantage of
a school grievance procedure before filing
suit.

49ers defensive coordinator prepares to face former team
By Josh Dubow
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SANTA CLARA Robert Saleh had been in
the NFL for six seasons with Houston by the
time he arrived as an assistant coach in Seattle
in 2011. He immediately realized what the
Seahawks were building with players like Earl
Thomas, Richard Sherman and Kam
Chancellor.
We had decent defenses, but you recognize,
it was like right when we
got there. Like, Man
these guys are a lot differ-
ent than what we had in
Houston, at that time,
Saleh said Thursday. To
see those guys just taste a
little bit of success and to
see Earl, Richard, Kam.
Bobby Wagner was a
Robert Saleh rookie, KJ Wright. Then
once Michael Bennett and Cliff Avril came in
it was like they just took that thing complete-
ly over.
The Seahawks went to the playoffs in
Salehs second season as a defensive quality
control assistant and won the Super Bowl the
following year. He parlayed that success into a
better job in Jacksonville. Saleh followed for-
mer Seahawks coordinator Gus Bradley and
spent the past three seasons as Bradleys line-
backers coach on the Jaguars.
Saleh is now building his own defense as
coordinator in San Francisco, and has the
opportunity to take the lessons he learned
with the Seahawks to boost one of their rivals
in the NFC West.

Saleh said he absorbed all sorts of knowl-
edge, from scheme and philosophy to how
learning to prepare, from Bradley, and getting
a players perspective from fellow assistant
and former NFL linebacker Ken Norton Jr.
He also saw how head coach Pete Carroll
always stayed true to himself and is trying to
do the same in his own career.
The biggest influence I took from coach
Carroll is from a philosophy standpoint,
Saleh said. Understanding who you are as a
person. Understanding whats important to
you as a person. And, how to apply it to the
message that youre trying to deliver.
Understanding that everybody has a style and

that every style is the right style provided you
apply it in the right way. So, just from a phi-
losophy standpoint, speaking to people,
handling people is where I have my greatest
growth from coach Carroll.
Carroll said Saleh has added his own wrin-
kles to the defense and expects him to have
great success in his first job as an NFL coordi-
nator, even though the Niners may lack the
talent defensively that was in Seattle when
Saleh arrived six years ago.
Im not surprised at all that he has arrived
here as a coordinator in the league, Carroll
said. Great worker, brilliant guy, good com-
municator. He gets it. Great demeanor about
Friday Sept. 15, 2017 17
him and a lot of energy. Im not surprised at
all.
Having coached against the Seattle style of
defense over the years and having served as
offensive coordinator for another former
Seahawks defensive coordinator, Dan Quinn,
first-year 49ers coach Kyle Shanahan wanted
to find a disciple of that defense to run his unit
in San Francisco.
The 49ers tried to hire Bradley, but he went
to the Chargers instead. So Shanahan hired
Saleh and tasked him with trying to build a
defense like the one in Seattle that has tor-
mented San Francisco teams so often in recent
years.
They make you work for everything and
its something that you dont have to reinvent
the wheel every week, Shanahan said. Its
something that if you just do over and over
and over again, its hard not to get better at
it.
The Niners showed moderate progress in
their first game under Saleh despite losing 23-
3 to Carolina. The run defense was vastly
improved over a year ago and four of the five
scores allowed came on short fields after
turnovers or fourth-down stops.
But they also failed to get much pressure on
Cam Newton, generating no sacks and only
nine QB pressures, according to SportRadar.
San Francisco knows that must change
against Russell Wilson and Seattles patch-
work offensive line.
We have to win our one on ones, defen-
sive lineman DeForest Buckner said. When
we had opportunities to rush Cam last week, I
didnt beat my guy on a one on one. We have
to do a better job this week.

American
Assassin is
full of action
By Sandy Cohen
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Mitch Rapp is an action hero in the vein of Jack Ryan or John McClane:
an impossibly tough and determined everyday guy out to save the world.
Dylan OBrien brings a youthful freshness to that archetype in American
Assassin, his first leading-man role and the first big-screen adaptation of
Vince Flynns series of Rapp novels. The character is scrappy and outspo-
ken, rebellious and single-minded, and a skilled wielder of all manner of
weapons.
But Rapp is first seen onscreen as a starry-eyed lover in Ibiza about to
propose to his girlfriend. Their idyllic moment is ruined when terror-
ists storm the beach and Rapps fiance ends up among the dead.
Flash forward 18 months and Rapp is a bearded recluse in Rhode
Island, where hes been studying Arabic, mastering firearms and
practicing martial arts. He plans to take out the terror
kingpin responsible for the Ibiza attack. But his clan-
destine training catches the eye of a CIA recruiter
(Sanaa Lathan), who brings Rapp in as a countert-
errorism operative.
From there, the story jumps around multi-
ple international destinations as Rapp
undergoes advanced training with the
humorless Stan Hurley (Michael
Keaton) and onto a mission to recover a
heap of stolen plutonium. Iranian forces

NOT FLAT: PENINSULA SCULP-
TORS GUILD EXHIBITS AT PENIN-
SULA MUSEUM OF ARTS STUDIOS
GALLERY IN B URLINGAME. The
Peninsula Sculptors Guild comprised of
Bay Area sculptors who have achieved pro-
fessional status presents its members
exhibition Not Flat at the Museum
Studios Gallery in the Peninsula Museum of
Art in Burlingame. Not Flat runs through
Oct. 15 with a reception for the artists
scheduled 2 p.m.-4 p.m. Sept. 17.
METHODS OF CREATING. Not Flat
includes works created using both subtrac-
tive (removing material) and additive
(adding material) processes. BJ Stevenson
and Ruth Waters remove stone (Stevenson)
or wood (Waters) to create their finished
pieces. Winnie van der Rijn, Nancy Woods
and Michael Kesselman upcycle found
objects. Van der Rijn is an urban scavenger,
working with the imperfect and the discard-
ed. Woods restores and paints usable objects
furniture mostly thereby reinventing the
objects and creating art, which keeps them
out of the landfill. Kesselman edits his com-
mon objects and junk, then puts seemingly
disparate elements together into a unified
whole. Two members work with wire:
Patricia Jones draws with copper wire,
exploring the female form; Barbara M. Berk
weaves and makes lace with stainless steel
and bronze wire, creating abstract forms.
Dylan Jones works primarily with clay,
altering slabs and throwing forms to create
landscapes. Patricia Keefe and Paul Rubas
each take a broader approach, essentially
asking, How can I make this happen?
Each then uses any medium and process
needed to accomplish the desired effect.
A SUNDAY SPECIAL. At a Sunday
Special on Sept. 24 from 2 p.m.-3 p.m.,
three Peninsula Sculptors Guild members
present demonstrations. BJ Stevenson will
demonstrate her direct carving process on
stone. Ruth Waters will demonstrate her
carving process on wood. Barbara M. Berk
will demonstrate her weaving and lacemak-
ing techniques with wire. The public is
invited to try their hand at carving stone
and weaving during the demonstrations. A
light reception will follow the demonstra-
tions.
ABOUT THE PENINSULA SCULP-

TORS GUILD. The Peninsula Sculptors
Guild was founded in 1979 by professional
artists George Duggar, Patricia Keefe,
Robert Wait and Ruth Waters. The Guilds
mission is to bring sculpture to the commu-
nity and to provide a support system and
resource-sharing for its members. PSG has
organized many shows, some for members
only and some juried exhibitions. Jurors
have included Dr. Peter Selz, UC Berkeley

PENINS ULA MUS EUM OF ART
PARTICULARS. The Peninsula Museum
of Art is a visual arts complex housing five
museum exhibit galleries, a childrens art
program, a library resource center and a gift
shop. Its focus is art created by living
artists with a Greater Bay Area connection.
All exhibits are free and open to the public.
PMA is open 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Wednesday
through Sunday. A department of the
Peninsula Museum of Art, the Museum
Studios includes 30 working studios for pro-
fessional-level artists. Disciplines include
painting, sculpture, prints, mixed media,
photography, jewelry and fiber art.
Including artists studios as a department of
the museum is a deliberate effort to bridge
the gap between professional-level artists
and the community at large. The Studios
Gallery is a 500-square-foot exhibition
space featuring the work of studio and guest
artists. The Peninsula Museum of Art and the
Museum Studios and Gallery are located at

Babys best interests uncertain in Luna Gale

By Judy Richter
DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT
The infant at the center of Rebecca
Gilmans Luna Gale is the daughter of
meth-addled teenagers who love her but
dont properly care for her.
In the Bay Area premiere presented by
Aurora Theatre Company, she comes to the
attention of a social worker when shes so
ill that her parents take her to the emer-
gency room in their hometown of Cedar
Rapids, Iowa.
As they wait, the mother, Karlie (Alix
Cuadra) is uptight and fidgety, scarfing
Skittles, while the father, Peter (Devin S.
OBrien) is almost comatose. Thats when
the social worker, Caroline (Jamie Jones),
meets them.
Karlies divorced mother, Cindy (Laura
Jane Bailey), a nursing assistant, wants to
care for Luna and seems like a logical
choice.
However, Caroline is besieged by
doubts when Cindy implies that she wants
to adopt and indoctrinate the baby in her
evangelical Christian beliefs.
Karlie and Peter work toward getting off
drugs, but they adamantly oppose Cindys
effort to take away their parental rights

does Carolines bureaucratic young boss,
Cliff (Joshua Marx).
Caroline does her best to act in Luna
Gales best interests, but shes influenced
by her own biases and hampered by an
overwhelming work load worsened by
budget cuts.
Playwright Gilman leavens the first act
with some humorous lines, but the second
act has some harrowing scenes as more is
learned about Carolines past and the
event that caused Karlie to go astray and
despise her mother starting when she was
15.
A subplot involves one of Carolines
clients, Lourdes (Jennifer Vega), who has
aged out of the foster care system at age 18
and goes to college. Things dont turn out
well for her.
Theres more hope for Luna Gale as the
play ends.
Director Tom Ross ably steers the actors
through their characters emotional mine
fields, resulting in an absorbing, riveting
drama. Jones is especially noteworthy as
Caroline reacts to events and revelations
that make her job more burdensome.
Running about two hours with one inter-
mission, the well written Luna Gale will

Gomez undergoes kidney transplant due to lupus

By Patrick Mairs
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Selena Gomez recently received a kid-
ney transplant from television actress
Francia Raisa due to her struggle with
lupus, the actress-singer revealed
Thursday.
Gomez disclosed in an Instagram post
confirmed by her publicist that she has
been somewhat out of the spotlight this
summer because she was recovering from
the procedure. The 25-year-old calls the
transplant what I needed to do for my
overall health.
The post didnt reveal Gomezs current
condition or say where or when the proce-
dure took place. Gomezs publicist
declined to release more information.
Gomez wrote there arent words to
describe how she can thank Raisa, who
she says gave the ultimate gift and sacri-
fice by donating her kidney.
I am incredibly
blessed, she added.
The Instagram post
includes a picture of
Gomez and Raisa hold-
ing hands while lying
side-by-side in hospi-
tal beds and another
photo of a scar on
Selena Gomez Gomezs abdomen. The
29-year-old Raisa is
best known for her role on the ABC
Family series The Secret Life of the
American Teenager. Raisas former pub-
licist said she forwarded a request for com-
ment to Raisa on Thursday; it was not
immediately returned.
Gomez revealed her lupus diagnosis in
2015 and took a break from her career last
year to deal with anxiety, panic attacks
and depression stemming from her battle
with the disease.
Lupus is an autoimmune disease, where
the body mistakenly attacks its own tis-
sues, sometimes including the kidneys.
One healthy kidney is all the body needs,
so a single kidney transplant can resolve
the problem, said Dr. David Klassen,
chief medical officer for the United
Network for Organ Sharing, which runs
the nations transplant system.
Lupus tends to be a disease of younger
women, and younger people tend to do
better with transplants than older
patients, so the expectation is she would
do quite well, he said of Gomez.
Lupus also tends not to come back after
the operation the drugs that prevent
kidney rejection are also very good for
treating lupus, the underlying disease,
Klassen said.
The causes of lupus are unknown.
Symptoms can include bloody or foamy
urine, unexplained weight gain, high
blood pressure or swelling in the legs,
ankles or around the eyes.
Only about 3 percent of kidney trans-
plants are for lupus most are due to dia-
betes or chronic damage from high blood
pressure.
There were about 19, 000 kidney trans-
plants in the U. S. last year.
Gomez, whose hits include Good for
You, Same Old Love and Come & Get
It, has been in the spotlight since she
was a child. She appeared on Barney and
Friends before breaking through as a
teen star on the Disney Channels
Wizards of Waverly Place. She has a
massive following on social media. Her
126 million followers on Instagram are
the most on the platform.
She is due to star in an upcoming Woody
Allen movie due out next year.
Gomez, who has been dating the singer
The Weeknd for several months, also has
had success behind the scenes as the exec-
utive producer of Netflixs 13 Reasons
Why, the controversial young adult
series that became a summer sensation
this year.

intend to make a nuclear weapon to attack Israel. But an

American mercenary and former student of Hurleys known
as Ghost (Taylor Kitsch) is also involved, and he has his
own ideas about how the plutonium should be used.
Further complicating the story are the various double-
agents involved and an apparently complex yet unex-
plained history between Ghost and Hurley. But no matter:
OBrien is wonderful to watch, a convincing action star
with perfectly tousled hair. He brings a sensitivity to Rapp
that balances his brutality, making him easy to root for,
even if he doesnt always follow the rules.
Keatons Hurley is practically forgettable until a stagger-
ing scene near the films end that shows just how crazy his
character is.
As often happens with these international thrillers, plot
holes are compensated for with action and spectacular set-
tings. American Assassin takes viewers to Italy,
Romania, Poland, Libya and Turkey, along with various
locations in the U.S.
But Rapp is an interesting guy, and American Assassin
is his origin story. Unfortunately, in setting up for a sequel,
the films ending goes too far, essentially trading Rapps
newly established gravitas for superhero shtick.
American Assassin, a CBS Film release, is rated R for
strong violence throughout, some torture, language and
brief nudity. Running time: 111 minutes. Two and a half
stars out of four.

deliveries to residences could unfold.
When councilmembers discussed at a
March meeting how the citys rules
might intersect with a new state law
legalizing recreational use of marijua-
na, they favored a cautious approach.
In doing so, officials agreed not to
explore commercial marijuana opera-
tions and to largely allow state laws
and existing city rules to define per-
sonal use and cultivation.
Belmont is one of many jurisdic-
tions across the state making sense of
what options are available to cities to
further regulate use, cultivation and
sales of marijuana under Proposition
64, the voter-approved state law legal-
izing recreational use of marijuana.
But when they revisited the topic
Tuesday, councilmembers expressed
interest in exploring pot deliveries to
homes, an activity in which residents
had expressed interest, said Mayor
Charles Stone. Councilmembers voted
3-1 to include language allowing pot
deliveries to homes in a draft ordi-
nance, slated for Planning
Commission review at a future meet-
ing. Vice Mayor Doug Kim voted
against the inclusion and Councilman
Eric Reed was absent from the discus-
sion.
Though City Attorney Scott Rennie
mentioned ambiguity around how pay-
ments for delivered products would be
processed and the possibility of peo-
ple stealing packages as potential
effects of allowing cannabis product
deliveries to homes, he acknowledged
BUDGET
Continued from page 1
sion is part of the districts financial
planning, and officials will seek per-
spective from teachers, parents and
school community members on the mat-
ter in coming months.
The school district will begin its
budget planning process this fall.
RCSD will engage staff, parents and
community members to seek their input
and feedback as part of the process, he
said.
The decision marks the third time in
as many years district officials have pur-
sued such an exemption. Following the
boards action, the issue will go to the
San Mateo County Office of Education
for confirmation.
Quintana said representatives from
the Redwood City Teachers Association
were not consulted before the initiative
was proposed. Representatives from the
association did not respond to a request
for comment on this article.
Board members approved
the proposal as officials
examine a significant budget
shortfall for the current
school year and those in the
immediate future.
The proposed budget for the
2017-18 school year shows
spending outpacing revenue
to the tune of $5.6 million,
requiring officials to pull
from reserves to balance the
budget.
By the 2019-20 school
year, the budget struggles are
expected to become so severe
that officials will need to
examine nearly $6 million in
cuts to staff and programs.
Quintana said the requested
exemption is sought by many
school districts, due to tech-
nicalities surrounding expen-
diture limitations attached to
some money issued by the
state. He also indicated the 3
percent gap left by the
exemption could be filled 1>66;4XbPcaPST\PaZ^U7PbQa^8]R ( $ &

the difficulty of predicting how any of
the measures would play out in the
city.
I think there are probably scenarios
that are hard to contemplate at this
point, he said. I think its one of
those things where I think you have to
realize that whatever your decisions
are today, youll probably be reconsid-
ering them in the relatively near
future.
Because some of the reasons why he
was hesitant to allow retail cannabis
businesses in the city did not seem
salient to home deliveries, Stone said
he was open to allowing them. He cited
smartphone apps already being used to
coordinate medical marijuana deliver-
ies in the state and preventing retail
stores from setting up shop in the city
as opportunities to curtail the possi-
bility of cash transactions and thefts
related to marijuana.
Kim expressed concerns about
cannabis products being left outside
homes if the purchaser isnt present to
receive packages when they are deliv-
ered, and wondered how a rule requiring
in-person deliveries could be enforced.
Belmont Police Chief Daniel
DeSmidt said predicting how officers
would enforce rules around marijuana
deliveries would be tough since the
app- and web-based platforms current-
ly used to coordinate deliveries are
constantly evolving.
Its going to look different than I
think any of us are envisioning it, he
said.
Kim acknowledged that he hadnt
considered how cannabis deliveries
would factor in when the council last
discussed the topic, but he thought
banning deliveries would align with
the desire councilmembers expressed
The exemption is sought as part of the
districts requirement to have its budget
approved by the county Office of
Education due to ongoing financial
hardship.
In the offices review of the districts
financial plan, it finds much of the
school systems financial struggles are
tied to loss of enrollment generated by
students choosing charter options over
comprehensive campuses or families
leaving the area due to unaffordability.
As a result, the district is receiving
$3.7 million less from the state this
year than last, as enrollment dipped by
nearly 500 students down to 7,455 in
the current school year, according to a
district report.
The districts budget was trimmed in
accordance with its funding limitations,
as fewer teachers are needed to educate a
dwindling amount of students.
This is primarily due to the reduction
in classroom teachers and other support
staff positions consequent to the antici-
pated decline in student enrollment,
according to the county assessment of
the districts finances.
Though charter schools have tradi-

at their March meeting to restrict com-
mercial cannabis activity in the city.
Its a tough issue, but I want to be
consistent with my belief that we
should limit commercial activity, he
said.
Councilman Warren Lieberman also
supported allowing deliveries to resi-
dences, guessing that prohibiting
deliveries may elicit concerns from
others with a variety of circumstances
the council couldnt yet foresee.
By allowing home deliveries, the
council could see what some of the
effects of having deliveries are and
could adjust the rules once they are
identified, said Lieberman. Among the
other regulations councilmembers
approved for Planning Commission
review are requiring odors from per-
sonal marijuana cultivation be not
detectable from public places and
ensuring personal cultivation does not
violate state housing standards, dis-
place parking and is a secondary use in
a private residence.
Lieberman also advocated for city
officials to keep a close eye on how
the citys rules are affecting residents.
It is a ball of yarn thats going to
unwind, he said. Were going to
learn more as time goes on and well
react as necessary.
In other business, the council unani-
mously approved an S-shaped bench
in Twin Pines Park as a veterans
memorial to honor members of all
service branches. Councilmembers
also approved a 25 percent reduction
in the citys housing impact fee, an in-
lieu sum housing developers pay when
they do not offer affordable units on-
site, for developers opting to pay
wages considered to be average for
workers in a specific area.
tionally been blamed for a portion of
the districts budget struggles, the coun-
ty report suggests the alternative
schools may be facing financial issues
as well.
The Rocketship charter elementary
school is suffering a nearly $300,000
deficit, according to the county report,
generating fears about the schools eco-
nomic viability.
The County Office is concerned
about the financial status of
Rocketship, according to the countys
letter, encouraging district officials to
assure the charter school does not end up
insolvent. If the charters financial
struggles begin to affect the district, the
officials are encouraged in the letter to
seek intervention from the county
office.
Looking ahead, the county called for
Redwood City officials to do as much as
possible to right the district from fol-
lowing into deeper economic difficul-
ties.
The district is strongly encouraged
to take immediate action to resolve the
structural deficit to avoid the risk of
insolvency, according to the report.

NOTIcE OF PETITION TO
ADMINISTER ESTATE OF
Kazuo Nakai
Case Number: 17PRO00928
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, con-
tingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or es-
tate, or both, of Kazuo Nakai. A Petition
for Probate has been filed by Susy Nakai
in the Superior Court of California,
County of San Mateo. The Petition for
Probate requests that Susy Nakai be ap-
pointed as personal representative to ad-
minister the estate of the decedent.
The petition requests authority to admin-
ister the estate under the Independent
Administration of Estates Act. (This au-
thority will allow the personal representa-
tive to take many actions without obtain-
ing court approval. Before taking certain
very important actions, however, the per-
sonal representative will be required to
give notice to interested persons unless
they have waived notice or consented to
the proposed action.) The independent
administration authority will be granted
unless an interested person files an ob-
jection to the petition and shows good
cause why the court should not grant au-
thority.
A hearing on the petition will be held in
this court as follows: OCT. 06, 2017 at
9:00 a.m., Superior Court of California,
County of San Mateo, 400 County Cen-
ter, Redwood City, CA 94063.
If you object to the granting of the peti-
tion, you should appear at the hearing
and state your objections or file written
objections with the court before the hear-
ing. Your appearance may be in person
or by your attorney.
If you are a creditor or a contingent cred-
itor of the decedent, you must file your
claim with the court and mail a copy to
the personal representative appointed by
the court within the later of either (1) four
months from the date of first issuance of
letters to a general personal representa-
tive, as defined in section 58(b) of the
California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days
from the date of mailing or personal de-
livery to you of a notice under sectioin
9052 of the California Probate Code.Oth-
er California statutes and legal authority
may affect your rights as a creditor. You
may want to consult with an attorney
knowledgable in California law.
You may examine the file kept by the
court. If you are a person interested in
the estate, you may file with the court a
Request for Special Notice (form DE-
154) of the filing of an inventory and ap-
praisal of estate assets or of any petition
or account as provided in Probate Code
section 1250. A Request for Special No-
tice form is available from the court clerk.

THE DAILY JOURNAL
ASHFORD
Continued from page 1
course of days for some projects as she
strives to hear their stories.
Theres a trust, youre developing a
trust with people, she said. They have to
know me, too. They have to know what
my intentions are.
Having completed several projects
highlighting the lives of Redwood City
residents and artists, it might seem like
Ashfords sense for the city comes from
many years of living there. But she only
moved to the city from Seattle three years
ago when her wife Dr. Lindsey
Zimmerman accepted an offer to be an
implementation scientist at the National
Center for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder
in Menlo Park.
Having previously worked as a freelance
photographer in San Francisco and Atlanta
and at a corporate photography company
in Seattle, Ashford was hesitant to start
over again in a city where she didnt know
anyone. But she took it upon herself to
change that, attending as many meetings
and events as she could to understand what
motivated residents, city leaders and any-
one passing through the city.
I went literally business to business
and introduced myself, she said, adding
that she attended countless City Council
meetings, Chamber of Commerce meet-
ings and gatherings of creative profes-
sionals to learn everything she could
about the city. I just kind of checked
everything out.
It wasnt long before Ashford estab-
lished a professional practice in the city,
opening a studio on the first floor of 201
Marshall St. and fielding requests for pro-
fessional head shots and wedding and

event photography. Her curiosity about
local artists and city art projects such as
artist David Hans stainless steel statue of
a native great blue heron at the Port of
Redwood City, which she also pho-
tographed, expanded her exploration of
the city even further.
When any artist comes to town, espe-
cially someone whos flown in, Im
there, she said. I want to know why
theyre there.
Fostering relationships with artists and
staying connected with past and current
clients has helped Ashford explore themes
and issues from a documentarians per-
spective. In 2016, Ashford accompanied
the Redwood City Council on a trip to sis-
ter city Zhuhai, China, to compile a photo
essay on the importance of sister cities.
JIM KIRKLAND
Ashford is currently working on a proj-
ect capturing the lives of Docktown
Marina residents as they await relocation
of their floating homes, located just east
of Highway 101 along Redwood Creek.
The community is set to disperse next year
in response to a lawsuit settled last year
with an attorney and Docktown neighbor
that found the floating community to be a
violation of the public trust.
Ashford hopes the experience of being
photographed lets Docktown residents
know they are being seen, even as their
homes are disappearing and, in the com-
ing months, many will have to move far
away from a city theyve called home for
years.
Ive given over 75 pictures to people,
she said. And just shared that experience
Friday Sept. 15, 2017 31
with them, and listen[ed] to their stories.
Ashford also plans to post weatherproof
photos of Docktown families on a chain-
link fence outside the community to
ensure those who live there are seen and
remembered by passersby.
The 40-year-old photographer is not
new to documenting the stories she feels
are compelling, having learned much from
those shes photographed in major cities.
Shes even traveled the world to follow
them, accompanying female street artists
to Tijuana and Miami to track their art for
one project. But shes also ready to capture
moments emblematic of local issues, cap-
turing moments from Bay Area protests
and the lives of human trafficking vic-
tims.
Though she initially viewed portraits
and event photography to be separate
from her documentary work, she has seen
the two become intertwined over the
years. Ashford said creative projects have
stemmed from a variety of leads, from
clients to people she meets in daily life.
In turn, creative projects have given her
inspiration for new ways to help clients
represent themselves through photos and
film. She said she recently helped a client
create a video she can use to spread the
word about her work as an executive pres-
entation coach for the first time.
It honestly starts so basic, people are
curious about what Im working on, she
said. Then they associate me with being
able to tell peoples stories, or basically
just get rooted in things. That Im there,
that Im present.
But no matter how many individuals
shes photographed and how varied her
projects are, finding the stories of those
shes working with is one aspect all of
Ashfords projects share.
Youre doing it for them, and thats one
thing thats so important about my work,
she said. I always come back to that.
