Sheryl Sandberg, officials welcome Redwood City charter school
By Austin Walsh

Redwood City students who stand to


be the innovators and world leaders of
the next generation had a brush with an
archetype of success when they were
addressed by technology heroine Sheryl
Sandberg.
Sandberg, the chief operating officer
of Facebook, spoke before a packed
gymnasium Thursday, Sept. 17, at John
F. Kennedy Middle School in Redwood

City during an event recognizing the


grand opening of KIPP Excelencia
Academy on the campus.
Students in the founding fourth-grade
class sat in the front row of the audience
while Sandberg, and a chorus of other
parents, school and elected officials,
espoused the values of the new charter
school.
We care so much that this community gets a good education, said
Sandberg.
Sandberg and her late husband Dave

Goldberg have been dedicated supporters of the charter academy, which celebrated its first opening along the
Peninsula with the Redwood City site.
KIPP Excelencia Academy, which will
focus on serving a predominately Latino
student population from the Fair Oaks
community, has been welcomed with

Saturday is Coastal Cleanup Day, groups seek to prepare for El Nio
By Samantha Weigel
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

An effort is underway to build a memorial recognizing the


suffering of those who were held captive in a Japanese internment camp at the Tanforan race track in San Bruno during
World War II, spearheaded by a local official who was a prisoner at the site.
A sculpture crafted in the image of a famous picture by photographer Dorothea Lange of two young girls held at the camp
is to be built in a plaza between the citys Bay Area Rapid
Transit station and the Shops at Tanforan in San Bruno to recognize the memory of the nearly 8,000 people forced to live in
the camps, said Foster City Councilman Steve Okamoto.
Okamoto, who was held with his parents and sister at the

ST. LOUIS For the second time in


two years, a captive snake in southeast
Missouri has given birth without any
interaction with a member of the opposite sex.
Officials at the Missouri Department
of Conservations Cape Girardeau
Conservation Nature Center say a
female yellow-bellied water snake
reproduced on her own in 2014 and
again this summer. The snake has been
living in captivity, without a male companion, for nearly eight years. An intern
who cares for the snake found the freshly laid membranes in July.
This years offspring didnt survive,
but the two born last summer are on display at the nature center, about 100
miles south of St. Louis.
Conservation Department herpetologist Jeff Briggler said virgin births are
rare but can occur in some species
through a process called parthenogene-

sis. It occurs in some insects, fish,


amphibians, birds and reptiles, including some snakes, but not mammals.
Parthenogenesis is a type of asexual
reproduction in which offspring develop
from unfertilized eggs, meaning there is
no genetic contribution by a male. Its
caused when cells known as polar bodies, which are produced with an animals egg and usually die, behave like
sperm and fuse with the egg, triggering
cell division.
The conservation department said
there are no other documented cases of
parthenogenesis by a yellow-bellied
water snake. Like other water snakes,
this species gives birth to live young
rather than eggs that hatch.
Robert Powell, a biology professor
and snake expert at Avila University in
Kansas City, said the Brahminy blind
snake a small burrowing animal
native to southeast Asia commonly
known as the flowerpot snake has
long been the only known snake that
routinely reproduces without a males
contribution.
In the Missouri case, its possible
but unlikely that momma snake simply stored sperm from her time in the
wild. But Michelle Randecker, a naturalist at the center, said eight years is too
long. Powell agreed, saying a female
snake usually cant store sperm for
longer than a year, although there are
accounts of successful storage as long as
three years.
Long-term storage is unusual. When

DA: Second alleged HOA


embezzler to surrender
A man accused of conspiring with the former manager of a San Mateo homeowners
association to embezzle nearly $2.8 million
is slated to turn himself in, prosecutors said
Thursday.
Michael Anthony Medeiros, a 58-year-old
Fremont resident, was wanted on a $1.6 million arrest warrant when, through his attorney, he agreed to appear in court Friday
morning, according to prosecutors.
The surrender comes two days after Susan
Marie Lambert, the former manager of the
Woodlake Homeowners Association, turned
herself in and pleaded not guilty to two
felonies with multiple enhancements, including aggravated white-collar crime. Lambert
and Medeiros allegedly conspired to embezzle millions of dollars from residents in the
990-unit condominium community.
Lambert, 64, was responsible for the associations finances, which included an

Local brief
approximate $5 million annual budget, while
she worked for the HOA for more than a
decade.
Medeiros, the owner of Professional
Painting Inc., conspired with Lambert who
issued nearly 150 fake invoices for work that
was never done, according to prosecutors.
Lambert would write checks to Medeiros
who would cash them in an account under his
control. The duo would then split the money,
prosecutors said.
The fraud was discovered by members of
the homeowners assocations board of directors, which then fired Lambert from her position in September 2013. After a two-year
investigation by San Mateo police and the
San Mateo County District Attorneys
Office, the duo could now face nearly six
years in prison, according to prosecutors.
Lambert was booked into county jail
Wednesday on $1 million bail.

Republican leaders seeking to avert


shutdown over Planned Parenthood
By Andrew Tayolr and Alan Fram
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON

House
Republican leaders scrambled Thursday
to head off a politically damaging government shutdown in two weeks over
rebellious conservatives demand that
any stopgap spending bill block federal
funds for Planned Parenthood.
Leadership sought an outlet for GOP
lawmakers outrage after this summers
release of videos secretly recorded by
abortion foes, who contend they show
that Planned Parenthood illegally profits
from selling tissue from aborted fetuses
to medical researchers.
Unclear is whether a vote Friday to
defund Planned Parenthood and other
steps will be enough to placate conservatives, emboldened by widespread
criticism of the organization at
Wednesdays GOP presidential debate.
Temporary funding legislation is

We want to make
sure we have equal money
for defense and non-defense.
Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev.

needed to give the chronically dysfunctional Congress more time to sort


through huge differences over a fullyear spending bill that could ease a
budget freeze facing the Pentagon and
domestic agencies. Top congressional
Democrats exiting a meeting with
President Barack Obama on Thursday
said any temporary funding measure
should have a short time-span and that
Democrats would demand increases for
domestic agencies.
We want to make sure we have equal
money for defense and non-defense,
said Senate Minority Leader Harry
Reid, D-Nev.

In the final months of the year, another possible shutdown looms over
Obamas demand that the GOP-led
Congress to increase the nations borrowing authority.
What is clear is that the once-routine
job of advancing a short-term spending
bill to keep the government open past an
Oct. 1 deadline remains a major
headache for House GOP leaders,
chiefly Speaker John Boehner. Some
hard-right lawmakers and tea partyers
are threatening to try to topple the Ohio
Republican, a fierce foe of abortion who
has held the speakership since January
2011.

Firefighters search for victims in the rubble of a home burnt by the Valley Fire in Middletown.

Death toll from fires jumps


as two more bodies found
By Brian Skoloff and Kristen J. Bender
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MIDDLETOWN Two more bodies were


found in the burned ruins of homes in
California, bringing the death toll to five from
two of the most destructive wildfires in the
state in recent memory.
Both fires continued burning Thursday, but
cooler weather and rain helped firefighters gain
ground on the blazes that have destroyed more
than 800 homes.
Official identifications have not yet been
made, but the sheriffs office said the two bodies found in Lake County were presumed to be
those of Bruce Beven Burns and former San
Jose Mercury News police reporter Leonard
Neft.
A woman was found dead Sunday in the
blaze burning about 100 miles north of San
Francisco.
Shirley Burns said her 65-year-old brotherin-law might have been sleeping in his trailer
and didnt realize the fire was speeding toward
him on Saturday.
It came in very fast, it was a monster, she
said from her home in Lodi.
She recalled Burns as a laid-back guy who
sold items at a Clear Lake flea market and lived
in a trailer at the familys metal recycling yard.
He reminded me of a big Teddy bear,
Shirley Burns said. He was a real kind and
gentle person. He had a beard and looked like a
mountain man.
Nefts wife and daughter were not immediately available for comment on Thursday.
He last spoke with his family on Saturday
before authorities found his burned-out car on a
route he would have used to escape.

His daughter Joselyn Neft previously said


Adela Neft repeatedly called her husband
Saturday to tell him to leave the house, but he
told her he didnt think the fire was coming
toward him.
Nefts house was in the same area where
Barbara McWilliams, 72, was found dead. She
told her caretaker she didnt want to leave her
home near Middletown and would be fine.
Cadaver dogs found the latest bodies on
Wednesday in the Hidden Valley and Anderson
Springs areas.
Two other bodies were found inside homes
destroyed in a separate wildfire about 170 miles
away in the Sierra Nevada foothills, Calaveras
County coroner Kevin Raggio said.
One was identified as Mark McCloud, 65,
who was found Tuesday in the Mountain Ranch
area.
Raggio wouldnt release the name of the
other victim because the family had not been
notified.
Firefighters gained ground on the massive
blazes after cooler weather and rain descended
on the area.
The fire in Lake County had charred 115
square miles and was 35 percent contained. An
estimated 585 homes and hundreds of other
structures have burned.
The fire in Amador and Calaveras counties
has burned 110 square miles. It was 49 percent
contained after destroying 252 homes.
California Attorney General Kamala Harris
warned of reports of price-gouging by hotels in
wildfire areas, saying her office is prepared to
investigate anyone looking to wrongly profit
from the destruction.
State law generally prohibits raising prices
by more than 10 percent after an emergency is
declared.

Obituary

Robert D. Field

January 9, 1931 - July 6, 2015


Robert D. Field, former mayor and long time resident of Foster City,
California died in his home on July 6, 2015 at the age of 84. Cancer
and its related complications were the cause of death.
He and his wife, June, had lived in Foster City, California for 50
year and he was elected to the city council in 1992 and served as
mayor 1994.
Bob Field was born in Pauls Valley, Oklahoma on January 9, 1931, the youngest of three sons
raised by Lee and Zora Field. He graduated from the University of Oklahoma with a degree
in Biology and did post-graduate work at Stanford University and the National Marine and
Oceanographic Institute at Monterey, California.
Bob Field taught science and coached football at Mills High School in Millbrae, California
for 30 years after a brief period as teacher and principal in Chickasha, Oklahoma and football
coach in Pampa, Texas.
He is survived by his brother and sister in-law, David and Sue, two daughters Robin and Jennifer,
and five grandchildren, Paul, David, Rick, Lauren and Kelly. To his family, he will always be
most fondly remembered as Poppy, a most extraordinary man who loved them unconditionally.
As mayor, Bob Field is warmly remembered for his untiring efforts to provide Foster City
with its outstanding recreational facilities, chief among them being the local golf course and
driving range, and the multi-use exercise paths around the city.

SAN DIEGO Californias summer housing rally cooled in August, a research firm said
Thursday, as tight supplies kept a lid on sales
and more buyers found prices out of reach.
The median sales price for new and existing
houses and condominiums was $409,000,
down 1.4 percent from a 7 1/2-year high of
$415,000 in July but up 4.3 percent from
$392,000 in August 2014, according to
CoreLogic Inc. It was the 42nd straight month
of annual price gains.
There were an estimated 41,623 homes sold
in the state, up 8.8 percent from 38,242 homes
a year earlier, CoreLogic said.
The numbers represent a modest slowdown
from early summer, when prices surged and
sales were unusually robust. Sales typically
increase between July and August but fell 10
percent this year.
I hate to put too much emphasis on a monthto-month change, but what stood out most was
the sales slowdown from July to August, said
CoreLogic analyst Andrew LePage. Its most
likely worsening affordability and tight inventory.
The state had a 3.6-month supply of unsold
single-family homes in August, according to
the California Association of Realtors, well
below what is considered a normal supply of
five to seven months. In the San Francisco Bay

Muslim group doesnt


fault school, police for detention

Area, there was only a 2.3-month supply of


unsold homes.
David Silver-Westrick, operating partner of
Keller Williams OC Coastal Realty in southern
Orange County, said San Clemente, a city of
about 65,000 people, has about 280 homes on
the market, up from about 160 two years ago
but still well below a normal market of about
600 homes.
Silver-Westrick said about one-third of
homes for sale in San Clemente are listed above
$1 million but less than one-third of potential
buyers qualify for loans at that level.
Some viewed the slowdown as a sign of relative normalcy, free from bubble and burst.
Mark Goldman, a real estate lecturer at San
Diego State University, said the market was
supported by a growing sense of job security
among consumers and an economy that is
chugging along.
My view of whats happening now is slow,
steady and sustainable, Goldman said.
In Southern California, the median sales
price was $438,000 in August, unchanged from
July and up 4.3 percent from $420,000 in
August 2014, according to CoreLogic. Sales in
the six-county region totaled 21,352 homes, up
8 percent from 19,765 homes a year earlier.
In the San Francisco Bay Area, the median
sales price was $650,000, down 1.3 percent
from $658,500 in July but up 6.2 percent from
$612,000 in August 2014. Sales in the ninecounty region totaled 8,062 homes, up 4.5 percent from 7,718 homes a year earlier.

Around the nation

IRVING, Texas One of the largest Muslim


groups in Texas said Thursday that it does not
fault police and school officials who handcuffed and suspended a 14-year-old Muslim
boy after he brought a homemade clock to class
that they mistook for a possible bomb.
Instead, Khalid Hamideh of the Islamic
Association of North Texas blamed political
leaders for espousing inflammatory antiMuslim rhetoric and creating a climate of
fear. Were not pointing a finger at the school
district or the police department, Hamideh
said. Under the current climate that exists in
this country, you cant really blame them
because when they see something like that,
they have to react.
The association operates the mosque attended by the family of Ahmed Mohamed, the suburban Dallas student who became a sensation
on social media after word spread about his
clock and the way he was treated.

SAN ANTONIO The commanders of Sgt.
Bowe Bergdahls platoon, company and battalion testified Thursday that
his disappearance from his
post in Afghanistan six
years ago put a strain on
their forces and put his fellow soldiers in danger.
The testimony came during a hearing where an
attorney for Bergdahl, Lt.
Col. Franklin D. Rosenblatt,
Bowe Bergdahl said Bergdahl had been discharged from the U.S.
Coast Guard because of psychological problems
and an Army psychiatric board later concluded
he had a severe mental defect. Rosenblatts
comments about Bergdahls mental health history came as the lawyer questioned a witness
called by military prosecutors.

Obituary

Thomas Patrick Byrne

April 7th, 1936 - September 5th, 2015


On September 5th, 2015, the world lost a true gentleman. Thomas
Patrick Byrne, son of Theresa and Thomas Byrne, born April 7th, 1936,
died peacefully at home surrounded by his loving family.

Sharp-Shooter Eighth Army Rifle and Pistol Team.
Tom married the love of his life, Maureen McCue, on September 27th, 1958, and they settled
in Burlingame to start their family. He was a cherished father to Monica Truettner (William),
Michael (Mary Jane), Michelle Kozlowski (Carlos), Melisa Albrand, Mary Agnes Boals
(Stephen); a beloved grandfather to Cody Byrne, Callie Grieser (Josh), Michael Truettner, Ryan
Truettner (Meredith), Will Truettner, Natassia Kozlowski, Ian Kozlowski, Sofia Kozlowski,
Mathieu Albrand, Stephen Boals, Ryan Boals, and Caroline Boals; and uncle to many nieces
and nephews.

Hillary Clinton warns


GOP a federal shutdown
would imperil economy
By Ken Thomas and Lisa Lerer
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CONCORD, N.H. Hillary Rodham


Clinton warned congressional Republicans on
Thursday that they would be endangering the
economy if they shut down the federal government in an effort to block funding for
Planned Parenthood.
Less than a day after the Republican field
gathered for their second debate, Clinton
seized on promises by some of her would-be
rivals to defund the womens health organization even if the move results in a politically treacherous government shutdown.
I would hope that the Republicans, and
particularly the Republicans in the House lead
by Speaker Boehner, would not put our country and our economy in peril pursuing some
kind of emotionally, politically charged partisan attack, she said in an interview Thursday
with CNN. That would be a very, very unfortunate decision.
At a town hall meeting, Clinton said it was
heartbreaking to think one more time the
Republicans in Congress are thinking about
shutting our government down over funding
for Planned Parenthood.
Turning to the Republican debate, she said
the candidates at the three-hour forum ignored
domestic issues like college debt, equal pay
and stagnant wages in favor of partisan rhetoric and lots of bickering, lots of personal
insults.
It might be entertaining for some but its
not going to be good for America, Clinton
said at a Concord Boys and Girls Club.
She also reiterated her impatience with
ongoing deliberations by the Obama administration on whether to approve the Keystone
XL pipeline, which would carry oil from

Canada into the U.S.


Clinton has refrained
from offering her opinion
on
the
controversial
pipeline but said she could
not wait too much longer.
I am putting the White
House on notice. Im
going to tell you what I
Hillary Clinton think soon.
Republican leaders are
trying to avoid a politically damaging government shutdown as some conservative lawmakers demand to block federal spending on
Planned Parenthood.
The showdown over a stopgap bill needed
to keep the government open comes after the
summers release of videos secretly recorded
by abortion foes who say Planned Parenthood
illegally profited from selling tissue from
aborted fetuses to medical researchers.
Planned Parenthood officials deny the allegations.
Earlier, Clinton listened to the stories of
people recovering from drug addiction and
family members who lost loved ones to substance abuse. At a town hall meeting in
Laconia, she promoted a $10 billion presidential campaign initiative to address drug and
alcohol abuse, which has roiled many rural
towns in New Hampshire.
This is a disease. This is a chronic condition that has to be interrupted and treated and
prevented if possible, Clinton said. Left
untended, its only going to get worse. The
numbers are only going to get higher.
Clinton kicked off a three-day swing
through New Hampshire as polls show her
once-commanding lead over Vermont Sen.

Fiorina looks to turn debate


accolades into dollars, votes
By Julie Pace
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Propelled by her standout debate performance, Carly Fiorina sought


on Thursday to turn accolades for her crisp,
confident showing into actual support from
voters and donors. Its a quest that will determine whether her breakthrough moment is a
turning point in the Republican primary or
simply a footnote.
After a few hours of sleep, Fiorina blitzed
through six morning-show interviews, an onair victory lap of sorts. In early voting states,
her small staff fielded calls from local officials
eager to pledge their support.
After last night, Im with Carly Fiorina,
said Bryan Gould, a New Hampshire lawyer
who was among those reaching out to Fiorinas
team. Gould had also been considering Sens.
Marco Rubio of Florida and Ted Cruz of
Texas, or retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson, but
he said Fiorina displayed the maturity hes
been looking for in a candidate.
For Fiorina, this burst of attention will spur
fresh scrutiny of her business record while running the technology company HewlettPackard and a deeper examination of her policy positions.
Still, the debates immediate results were
overwhelmingly positive for Fiorina, the only
woman in the Republican field. That was all
the more remarkable given that her campaign

change the participation criteria just so she
could qualify for the event.
We feel like last night reset the race, said
Keith Appell, a senior adviser to CARLY for
America, a super PAC backing Fiorina.
At least in the short-term, Fiorinas strong
performance could jolt a Republican race that
has been dominated by the unexpected rise of
Donald Trump. Her sustainability will hinge
on her ability to raise money for a long campaign and build a broad enough coalition of
voters to have strong showings in early contests.
Appell said the super PAC, which has been
running the bulk of Fiorinas operations in key
states, will keep trying to generate attention
through free media and campaign appearances,
while holding off on paid advertisements for
now. The outside group is also looking to bolster its roster of community captains that can
help recruit volunteers and organize voter
turnout next year.
Even before Thursdays debate, Fiorina had
quietly garnered positive reviews from voters
in early voting Iowa, New Hampshire and
South Carolina. Shes been among the most
aggressive Republican candidate in taking on
Democratic front-runner Hillary Rodham
Clinton, arguing that if the GOP nominates a
woman, it would block Clinton from being
able to turn her campaign into a history-making quest to become the first female president.

Saudi-led group
hits Yemen rebels
near city of Marib
By Adam Schreck
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MARIB, Yemen The Saudi-led


coalition targeting Yemens Shiite
rebels pounded the insurgents positions Thursday with heavy artillery
fire on the outskirts of the central
city of Marib, part of their push to
retake the capital, Sanaa.
The heavy bombardment came
hours after the rebels, known as
Houthis, aired footage on their satellite television channel purporting to
show a Saudi soldier held as a prisoner of war. A top al-Qaida leader in
Yemen meanwhile praised the campaign against the Houthis and called
for Islamic rule in the Arab worlds
poorest country.
The dull thud of artillery fire rumbled across Marib but its residents,
many carrying Kalashnikov assault
rifles, appeared unperturbed by the
nearby fighting. Shops downtown
were open for business, and residents crowded a market to buy qat

leaves, a mild narcotic widely consumed in Yemen.


As you see, there are no clashes,
mostly just shelling ... from far
away, deputy governor Abdul Rab
Ali said Thursday.
Marib is the capital of the largely
desert province of the same name
east of the capital. Authorities say
the coalitions operations in the area
include targeting Houthi positions
near the Marib dam and the town of
Sirwah, about 40 kilometers (25
miles) west on the road to Sanaa.
The provincial capital is controlled by forces loyal to exiled
President Abed Rabbo Mansour
Hadi. Ali said 80 percent of the
province is controlled by pro-Hadi
forces, while the Houthis and their
allies control the rest.
Military vehicles used by forces
from the United Arab Emirates, a
central member of the coalition,
made their way Thursday along a
two-lane road between Marib and a
sprawling military base further east.

REUTERS

Tribesmen loyal to Yemens government aim their weapons at a Houthi position on the frontline in Marib.
The war in Yemen pits the Saudiled coalition against Iranian-backed
Houthis and troops loyal to former
President Ali Abdullah Saleh.
Others opposing the Houthis include
southern separatists, local and tribal
militias, Sunni Islamic militants and
troops loyal to Hadi.
Coalition troops and allied
Yemeni forces will have to traverse
rugged mountains as they push
westward toward Sanaa. It is an area
that Emirati Brig. Gen. Ali Saif alKaabi likened to parts of

Afghanistan, where Emirati troops


were deployed as part of the NATOled mission.
Coalition and pro-Hadi forces
also are advancing toward the capital from the south after retaking the
key port city of Aden over the summer.
In addition to rockets and mortar
rounds they lob at their opponents,
the Houthis and their allies have laid
land mines in the path of the advancing forces, military officials say.
Mine-resistant armored vehicles

and tanks the Emirates has deployed


east of the capital provide some protection, but the mine threat clearly
has commanders concerned. An
Emirati soldier was killed by a mine
on Monday the countrys 54th
loss this month.
Our people are running into difficulty because of the terrain, and
number two, because of the fearless
enemy who is ready to die, Sultan
Ali al-Aradeh, the governor of
Marib province, said in an interview
Monday.

administration is preparing a major
overhaul of its failed effort to train
thousands of moderate Syrian
rebels to fight the Islamic State
group, shifting from preparing
rebels for frontline combat to a plan
to embed them with established
Kurdish and Arab forces in north-

eastern Syria, U.S. officials said.


Instead of fighting the Islamic
State in small units, the U.S.-trained
rebels would be attached to larger
existing Kurdish and Arab forces.
They would be equipped with U.S.
communications gear and trained to
provide intelligence and to designate IS targets for airstrikes in coordination with U.S. troops outside of
Syria, the officials said.

There is no reason to evade
cooperation with the Syrian leadership, which confronts that terror
threat, Lavrov said. He added that
the Syrian president commands
the most capable ground force
fighting terrorism.
Rejecting such a possibility,
ignoring the capability of the
Syrian army as a partner and ally in
the fight against the IS means sacrificing security of the entire region
for political or geopolitical intentions and calculations, he said.

Croatia puts army on alert as it


reels from influx of migrants
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BATINA, Croatia Croatian leaders put


the army on alert after chaos erupted Thursday
on the border with Serbia, where thousands of
asylum-seekers poured into the country, some
trampling each other in a rush to get on the
few available buses and trains. Dozens were
injured in the mayhem.
The masses descended on Croatia after
Hungary erected a barbed wire-fence and took
other tough measures to stop them from using
it as a gateway into Western Europe.
As Hungarian officials hailed their success
in putting a halt to the influx and moved ahead
with plans to build more border fences, leaders in Croatia pleaded that their country was at
full capacity and unable to cope with waves of
people fleeing war and poverty in the Middle
East and Africa.
Croatian Interior Minister Ranko Ostojic
said he had a message for migrants: Dont try
to go to Western Europe through his country.
Dont come here anymore. Stay in refugee
centers in Serbia and Macedonia and Greece,
Ostojic told reporters. This is not the road to

Europe. Buses cant take you there. Its a lie.


Hungary sealed off its border with Serbia
this week with a razor-wire fence and began
arresting people who tried to cross. Police
used tear gas, batons and water cannons on
those who tried to push open a border gate on
Wednesday.
Croatia represents a longer and more difficult route into Europe, but those fleeing violence in their homelands had little choice.
By late Thursday a total of 9,200 people had
entered the country in just 48 hours, police
said, and other groups were trying to cross
into neighboring Slovenia and Hungary.
Slovenia, like Hungary, appeared unwilling
to take in the inflow, with Slovenian police
saying those arriving from Croatia would simply be sent back there, according to the countrys state news agency.
Croatian President Kolinda Grabar
Kitarovic called on the military to be on higher alert and to act if needed to protect the border from the migrants. Ostojic, the interior
minister, meanwhile, suggested Croatia might
close its borders if faced with thousands more
newcomers.

Aguirre, Bain, Foust and Masur for Redwood City Council

heres been a lot of change


in Redwood City the past
few years and its a direct
result of market timing. Members
of the City Council had no idea
that an ambitious plan that was
supposed to take 20 years would
manifest so quickly, but that is
exactly what happened with the
Downtown Precise Plan. The plan
was completed just as market conditions were ready. That seldom
happens when it comes to city
planning.
While the growing pains have
been acute, there is an argument
that it is better to have concentrated
development and construction
rather than having it drag out over
years. And while no one can say
that they predicted the quick
changes, nearly all can say the
result will forever change the landscape of downtown Redwood City.
So what now? While some could
say the heavy lifting is done, that is
far from the case. Managing the
changes downtown and ensuring
that development elsewhere in the
city stays focused on the benet to

facing the citys elected ofcials.
Despite concerns with unfunded
liabilities ubiquitous to all
California cities, the city has ample
reserves and managed its way out
of the Great Recession well.
Quality of life is the quest here,
with parks and recreation, senior
services, library services and the
arts at the forefront.
There are three incumbents,
Alicia Aguirre, Ian Bain and
Rosanne Foust, running for re-election, and all three have proven to
be responsive and responsible
when it comes to making decisions
and reecting the needs of the city.
Bain is a true example of responsiveness and often lls the role as
someone who asks questions and
challenges the status quo, but never
in a combative way. He is both
respectful and thorough. Foust
tends to have a business bent to her
decisions but also is thoughtful and
receptive in her approach. Aguirre
is focused on the citys infrastructure needs while also keeping the
citys low-income residents in mind

when it comes to services and


affordable housing. Put simply, the
three incumbents have much in
common when it comes to the
greater good, with their own focus
which creates a nice balance on
the council.
Of the challengers, Janet
Borgens, as member of the
Planning Commission, exhibits the
best nuts-and-bolts knowledge of
the development issues facing the
city. She knows her stuff and is a
valuable member of the Planning
Commission. A vote for her would
certainly not be wasted but Masur
would bring a new dynamic to the
council. As a longtime member of
the Redwood City Elementary
School District Board of Trustees,
she has experience in balancing a
budget, reaching consensus and
managing a tremendous amount of
change both within the district and
because of changing state policies.
Both Borgens and Masur are
known quantities in the community,
but Masur offers the perspective of

NEW YORK Stocks ended mostly


lower after a volatile day as traders tried
to figure out what was next for U.S.
interest rates.
The bumpy trading Thursday came
after the Federal Reserve decided to
keep interest rates low for now, citing
weakness in the global economy and
unsettled financial markets.
Investors did make significant bets on
U.S. Treasuries and, for a change, precious metals. The U.S. dollar weakened
against its major currency counterparts
as the threat of higher interest rates abated.
The Dow Jones industrial average lost
65.21 points, or 0.4 percent, to
16,674.74. The Standard & Poors 500
index fell 5.11 points, or 0.3 percent, to
1,990.20 and the Nasdaq composite
index rose 4.71 points, or 0.1 percent, to
4,893.95.
The Fed said that while the U.S. job
market is solid, there are reasons to be
concerned about global economic
growth. Fed Chair Janet Yellen said a
rate hike is still likely this year. The Fed
meets again in October and December.
The market got what it wanted, said
Alan Rechtschaffen, a portfolio manager
at UBS. The market had a rate rant
last month and that scared the Fed.

The market got what it wanted. ... The market

Alan Rechtschaffen, a portfolio manager at UBS

Interest rates have been near zero


since 2008, when the Fed drastically cut
rates in response to the financial crisis
and Great Recession. The last time the
central bank actually raised rates was
2006.
Ultra-low interest rates tend to help
the stock market because they make
bonds, CDs and other income-producing
investments less appealing by comparison. They also make it inexpensive for
companies to borrow money to buy back
their own shares, which also sends stock
prices higher.
On the other hand, the Fed has made it
abundantly clear that the current policy
of super-low rates is an unusual measure
intended to shore up the economy and
will eventually be dismantled. Keeping
it in place is a signal that the Fed
believes the economy isnt quite strong
enough to withstand higher rates. For
investors wondering when interest rate
policy will be normalized, that means
more waiting.
They just need a little more time. The
drumbeat is getting louder for them to
actually raise rates, said Tony Bedikian,
head of global markets at Citizens

Fed leaving key interest rate


unchanged, citing low inflation
By Martin Crutsinger
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON The Federal


Reserve ended weeks of speculation
Thursday by keeping U.S. interest rates at
record lows in the face of threats from a
weak global economy, persistently low
inflation and unstable financial markets.
But at a news conference after a Fed
policy meeting, Chair Janet Yellen said a
rate hike was still likely this year. A
majority of Fed officials on the committee that sets the federal funds rate
which controls the interest that banks
charge each other foresee higher rates
before next year. The Fed will next meet
in October and then in December.

Every (Fed) meeting is a live meeting, Yellen said. October, it remains a


possibility.
In maintaining its policy, the Fed is
keeping its benchmark short-term rate
near zero, where its been since the depths
of the 2008 financial crisis. A higher Fed
rate would eventually send rates up on
many consumer and business loans.
The ultra-low loan rates the Fed engineered were intended to help the economy recover from the Great Recession.
Since then, the economy has nearly fully
recovered even as pressures from abroad
appear to have grown.
In a statement it issued after its meeting
ended, the Fed that while the U.S. job
market is solid, global pressures may

restrain economic activity and further


slow inflation.
Signs of a sharp slowdown in China,
the worlds second-largest economy, and
other emerging economies have intensified fear about the U.S. and global economy. And low oil prices and a high-priced
dollar have kept inflation undesirably
low.
Were focused particularly on China
and emerging markets, Yellen said at her
news conference. Weve long expected,
as most analysts have, to see some slowing in Chinese growth over time as they
rebalance their economy. The question is
whether or not there might be a risk of a
more abrupt slowdown than most analysts expect.

GM will pay $900 million over ignition switch scandal


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK General Motors has


agreed to pay $900 million to resolve
criminal charges for concealing a defective ignition switch linked to at least 169
deaths, federal prosecutors said Thursday.
The agreement calls for two charges
wire fraud and scheming to conceal information from government regulators to
be dropped after three years if the

automaker cooperates fully.


However, U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara
did not rule out the possibility employees
could still face charges.
They let the public down. Its as simple as that, Bharara said. To sum it up,
they didnt tell the truth in the best way
that they should have to the regulators,
to the public about this serious safety
issue that risked life and limb.
Also Thursday, GM announced it that it

will spend $575 million to settle the bulk


of the civil lawsuits filed over the scandal.
The twin agreements bring to more
than $5.3 billion the amount GM has
spent on a problem prosecutors say could
have been dealt with at a cost of less than
a dollar per car. Those expenses include
government fines, compensation for victims and the recall and repair of the millions of affected vehicles.

Financial Group.
With interest rates not changing soon
and inflation in check, investors bought
up bonds. The yield on the U.S. 10-year
Treasury note dropped to 2.19 percent
from 2.30 percent the day before, a large
move. The two-year Treasury note,
which would be more heavily impacted
by higher short-term interest rates, had
even an even more dramatic move, dropping to 0.68 percent from 0.80 percent.
In precious metals markets, gold and
silver saw significant buying in afterhours trading after the Fed released its
statement. Gold fell $2 to settle at
$1,117 an ounce in regular trading but
was up $12.80 to $1,131.80 an ounce
later. Silver added 10 cents to settle at
$14.98 an ounce, and gained another 25
cents to $15.13 in extended trading.
Copper finished unchanged at $2.45 a
pound in regular trading. It was up a
penny in after-hours trading.
Oil finished slightly lower after the
Feds comments. U.S. crude fell 25 cents
to $46.90 a barrel. Brent crude, a benchmark for many international oils imported by U.S. refineries, fell 67 cents to
$49.08 a barrel.

Business briefs
Amazon dangles $50 tablet
computer to hook more consumers
SAN FRANCISCO Amazon is dangling a $50 tablet
computer in its latest attempt to lure consumers who cant
afford or dont want the more expensive Internet-connected
devices made by Apple and other rivals.
The 7-inch Fire tablet unveiled Thursday marks Amazons
most aggressive attempt yet to undercut Apple, which has been
the market leader since its first iPad went on sale five years
ago. The least expensive iPad Mini, which has an 8-inch
screen, currently sells for $270.
Amazon.com Inc. isnt trying to persuade anyone that its
cheap tablet matches the quality of its own sleeker, higherpriced Fire HD alternatives, let alone the top-selling iPad line.
But the Seattle company is counting on the new tablets low
price to encourage more people to buy a device that will hook
them on watching video, reading books, playing games and
shopping on a computer thats easy to carry wherever they go.

Court blocks U.S. sales of old


Samsung phones in Apple battle
WASHINGTON A federal appeals court is blocking
Samsung Electronics from selling some of its older smartphones in the U.S. in the latest twist to a long-running legal
battle over how much of the devices technology was copied
from Apples iPhone.
The ruling issued Thursday by the U.S. Federal Circuit
Court of Appeals in Washington vindicates Apple, but might
not hurt Samsung too much. Thats because it applies to
phones that are no longer popular.
The most recent phone affected by the injunction, the
Galaxy S3, was released in 2012 long enough ago to be
eclipsed by slicker smartphones in the rapidly evolving market
for mobile technology.

Adobe 3Q results rise, but stock falls aftermarket


SAN JOSE Software maker Adobes net income and revenue climbed in its fiscal third quarter as its subscription revenue kept growing, but the company gave a disappointing
fourth-quarter outlook and said the head of its largest business
is leaving.
The company reported Thursday a bigger profit and more
revenue than Wall Street expected.

Ready to Rumble
By Terry Bernal

Game of the Week

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

This years Redwood City Rumble


promises to be quite a shootout.
The annual rivalry game between the
Woodside Wildcats and the Sequoia
Cherokees has proven a hit since it was
reinstituted in 2011. Over the previous four
seasons, the cross-town rivals have won
two games apiece. Even the cumulative
score is neck and neck, with the Cherokees
having outscored the Wildcats 127-117.
The fanfare has been electric as well, with
last years meeting at Woodside a standing-room only turnout with people spilling
out of the seams, according to Woodside
head coach Justin Andrews being the
Wildcats best draw of the year by far.
This year, with Sequoia hosting, both
teams bring hyper-intensive, no-huddle
spread offenses to the field, hence the promise of a shootout. Andrews said the same was
anticipated last year. However, it didnt turn
out that way.
I think it has all the makings of [a
shootout] based on the styles of offense,
Andrews said. But you can say the same
thing about last year and it just didnt happen that way.
Both Andrews and Sequoia head coach
Robert Poulos attributed last years slower
tempo to scheduling. Sequoia was coming off
a travel week in which they played at Valley
Center High School in Southern California.
Woodside was coming off an early-season
bye week. The result was quite the upset, a
42-15 blowout in favor of Woodside.
It was kind of a perfect-storm game,
Poulos said. I think we came in a little
overconfident.
This year, both teams are coming off
Week 2 victories. Sequoia (1-1) pounded
struggling Harbor-Santa Cruz 52-3 for its
first win of the year. Woodside (2-0) cruised
past Carlmont 32-18 for its second win of
the season.

SHP halts red-hot Sequoia


By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

TERRY BERNAL/DAILY JOURNAL

Senior setter Lilika Teu had a season-high 44


assists in SHPs four-set win Thursday.

Sacred Heart Prep volleyball has a not-sosecret weapon in outside hitter Cate Desler.
The 6-foot sophomore has been menacing opposing teams to the tune of 4.4 kills
per set this season. In Thursdays matchup
at Sequoia, the Cherokees were able to minimize Deslers offensive output. What they
didnt count on, however, is the burgeoning
Sacred Heart Prep stars defense.
The Gators (8-2) rolled to a four-set victory Thursday at Sequoia 26-24, 25-16, 1625, 25-16, handing the Cherokees (9-2)
just their second loss of the year.

This is a pretty big win, Desler said.


Sequoia is a pretty good team. We pulled it
together as a team and pulled out a great
win.
Desler managed to fire a match-high 13
kills, but registered one of her season lows
at 3.3 kills per set. However, she totaled a
career-high seven blocks, fronting a commanding defensive effort at net. SHPs middle blockers also had a field day, as junior
Natalie Zimits totaled six blocks and freshman Alexa Bartlett had four both career
highs for the first-year varsity duo.
This is definitely one of [Bartletts] better games, Zimits said. Its not a one-time
thing, but she played really well today.

Granted, Sequoia is still without its best


offensive weapons in junior outside hitter
Leanne Robinson, who is still at least two
weeks away from returning due to an ankle
injury. In the meantime, the scrappy
Cherokees have been nearly unstoppable,
and certainly gave the Gators a run for their
money.
Sequoia libero Olivia Stubblefield keyed
on Desler throughout, totaling a matchhigh 44 digs. The juniors stellar back-row
defense made for plenty of raucous rallies
and some darn entertaining counter play by
SHPs front row.

Hyde spins right onto the map in first NFL start

Regardless of rankings on those highlight-reel turns, Hyde has instantly shown

I havent seen anything quite like that

Hyde moved from Cincinnati to Naples,
Florida, after his first year in high school
to live with his grandparents and get on a
better path. He gave his grandmother the
game ball from his first career touchdown
last year.
The soft-spoken Hyde credits his time
around Gore for how he now takes better
care of his body. Hyde dealt with a calf
injury during the teams offseason program.
After I hurt my calf I was like, Yeah, Im
doing whatever I have to do to make sure my
legs are always fresh, he said. I had to do
that. I wasnt always serious about taking
care of my body. Frank is like a big brother
to me. He looked after me, just showed me
the ropes. Taking care of your body, that
was one thing I paid attention to. Frank
took really good care of his body.
It gets tougher from here for Hyde now
that opposing defenses have film to study
of his breakout performance Monday. He
will look to build off that Sunday at
Pittsburghs Heinz Field.
Ive been waiting for him to get the
opportunity to run the ball that much,
49ers linebacker Michael Wilhoite said. I
think Carlos will be a really good player in
this league for a long time. He got to learn
from the best for a whole year last year.
When you learn from a guy like Frank Gore
like I learned from Pat (Willis) and (NaVorro

Raiders focused on their


run game against Ravens
By Michael Wagaman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BERKELEY For all the concern over


the injury to the throwing hand of Raiders
quarterback Derek Carr, the teams inability
to run the ball in its season-opening loss to
Cincinnati has to be even more troubling.
After spending the offseason retooling
the offense to revolve around the running
game, offensive coordinator Bill Musgrave
barely broke it out against the Bengals.
Oaklands 16 rushing attempts were tied
with Detroit and Philadelphia for the fewest
in the NFL in Week 1.
When they did try to run it, the Raiders
didnt have much luck and finished with just
63 yards on the ground, tied for second
fewest in the NFL.
Musgrave expects that to change this
week against Baltimore.
I think thatd be one of the areas that
wed want to get better at, Musgrave said
Thursday. There are a number of things in
that game that we want to improve upon.
More runs, more touches for everybody
would be included in that.
The Raiders had seven drives when they
ran the ball just once, including four in the
first half before the score got out of hand.
Latavius Murray, who led Oakland with 44
yards on 11 carries, was stopped for 2 yards
or fewer five times. Backup Taiwan Jones
had three runs that netted 5 yards.
Reserve fullback Jamize Olawale appeared
to provide a boost of the bench with his 60yard run in the second quarter, but the play
was negated when right tackle Austin
Howard was flagged for holding.
That put added pressure on a passing game
already suffering after Carr injured his hand,
and left Oakland as an easy target for
Cincinnatis defense.
Carr, who returned to practice this week
and is expected to start Sunday, said its too

KIRBY LEE/USA TODAY SPORTS

Jamize Olawale broke a 60-yard run Sunday in


the Raiders loss to the Bengals.
easy to blame the running game for
Oaklands struggles moving the ball.
It works hand in hand, the second-year quarterback said. If were throwing it well, thats
going to help Latavius. If Latavius is running
well, thats going to help us on the perimeter.
Its a team game. It works both ways.
We have to be more efficient first and
second down, myself included. I have to be
more efficient in where to throw the football, what coverages are and whats the best
option to help us do that. As long as we can
do that, well be just fine.
Raiders coach Jack Del Rio said the lack
of rushing attempts against Cincinnati was
a result of the overall ineffectiveness of the
offense.
Yeah, Id like to see (the attempts) go up,
but we have to earn that, Del Rio said.
Convert some on third downs, have more
possessions. I dont feel like we totally
abandoned it, but I dont feel like we effectively did what we set out to do.

Curry returns to Charlotte with NBA trophy


By Steve Reed
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

DAVIDSON, N.C. Stephen Curry isnt


one to forget his roots.
The NBAs Most Valuable Player returned
to his alma mater Davidson College on
Thursday to show off the Larry OBrien NBA
championship trophy with the small
schools close-knit community.
Curry worked out with Davidson players,
participated in a question-and-answer period
with college students and banked in a 25-foot
jumper in the first shot ever attempted at the
schools new practice facility, which is set to
open in the coming weeks. He signed numerous autographs for students and even ate
some chicken curry in the school cafeteria.
This is where the whole story started and I
know how much the Davidson alumni and
community supports me, so this is very special, Curry told The Associated Press.
Longtime Davidson mens basketball
coach Bob McKillop said Curry, who led the
underdog Wildcats to the Final Eight in
2008, never ceases to amaze him with his
humility.
McKillop said Curry told him he wanted to
return to campus to celebrate this past seasons success with the student body.
For him to come back and say, I want you
to be a part of this, because you are a part of
this, to me that is just outstanding,
Mckillop said. He makes everyone so proud
that hes a Davidson guy.
Davidson athletic director Jim Murphy
said the event was impromptu and that Curry
wanted to keep it quiet and mostly within the
community.
The event wasnt made public to the media.
But word began leaking out on Thursday
that the Golden State Warriors star was back
in town and the campus started to come alive.
Several hundred students crowded in the
schools athletic center on campus to hear
Curry speak about his time at Davidson and
life in the NBA.
The welcome he got when he walked on

HOUSTON Milo Hamilton, a Hall of


Fame broadcaster whose radio calls over six
decades included 11 no-hitters and Hank
Aarons historic 715th home run in 1974,
died on Thursday. He was 88.
The Houston Astros announced the death
of their longtime play-by-play man, well
known for using the
phrase Holy Toledo. A
cause of death was not
immediately released for
Hamilton, who worked
for seven teams.
Hamilton spent 60 years
broadcasting major league
games, and was working
for WSB radio in Atlanta
Milo Hamilton when Aaron became the
all-time home run leader on April 8, 1974.
Hamilton later said he didnt rehearse the call,
but it went off without a hitch.
Theres a drive into left-center field, he
said as the Braves slugger started running the
bases. That ball is going to be ... out of here!
Its gone! Its 715! Theres a new home run
champion of all-time! And its Henry Aaron!
As Aaron crossed home plate and was
greeted by jubilant teammates, Hamilton
continued with: Henry Aaron, the home run
king of all time.
Hammerin Hank joined Hamilton at his
retirement party in 2012 and discussed his
famous call, which the broadcaster considered the highlight of his career.
Your voice goes with me all over the
world, he told Hamilton. Everywhere I go
when people start talking about that home
run, your voice comes back, and I want to
say how much I appreciate that.
Hamilton and Aaron were forever linked
because of that call.

LAKE FOREST, Ill. Only the weather
could stop Jason Day at the BMW
Championship on Thursday.
Day began his latest quest to reach No. 1 by
holing out from a fairway bunker for eagle
and powering his way to 10-under par
through 17 holes. He hit a 346-yard drive
with the wind at his back, and had 44 yards to
the ninth green when play was stopped
because of approaching storms. Day needed
an eagle on his last hole for a 59.
He was four shots ahead of Daniel Berger,
who had a 65.
Jordan Spieth, coming off consecutive

The reasons for Sequoias success are easy
to pinpoint. The Cherokees gained 403
yards of total offense, including 243 rushing yards. Junior running back Alberto
Vasquez paced the team with 101 rushing
yards on 16 carries with two touchdowns.
Junior quarterback Nick DeMarco was quite
efficient completing 6 of 11 passes for 130
yards and two touchdowns.
It was a much-needed win after a tough
Week 1 opponent in Palo Alto, as the
Vikings marched to a 54-28 victory over the
Cherokees. Still, Poulos said it was a moral
victory that Sequoia was able to score 28
points against a powerhouse with DeMarco
making his varsity debut.
I think Paly is a pretty dang good team,
so putting 28 points on them felt pretty
good, Poulos said. And even looking at
the film, it was like wow, we missed some
stuff. And against Harbor, theyre struggling. So I liked the fact every kid made
some contributions.
Through his first two games, DeMarco
showed signs of being a varsity force sooner rather than later. Although he threw at
just a 38.7-percent clip against Paly, he
totaled 239 passing yards. More importantly, he made quick decisions on his feet, opting for three impromptu throwaways
instead of forcing the ball downfield,
Poulos said.
And DeMarco is quickly making the
quick-strike Sequoia offense his own.
Hes got the tempo, Poulos said. So,
Im giving him more decision making
and hes adapting fast.
The Wildcats, on the other hand, have
won two straight despite lacking a breakout
offensive performance thus far. While
Sequoia gained 403 total yards last week

Ali gets award in his hometown of Louisville


By Bruce Schreiner
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LOUISVILLE, Ky. Boxing great


Muhammad Ali once again heard a crowd
chanting his name Thursday and had a medal
draped around his neck in his Kentucky
hometown.
The three-time world heavyweight champion basked in the attention in Louisville,
where he received an award from the
University of Louisville. School President
James Ramsey presented Ali with the medal
as the first-ever Grawemeyer Spirit Award
winner for his role in inspiring others.
Grawemeyer Awards are presented each
year for music composition, education, religion, psychology and improving world
order.
After a series of tributes recounting his
triumphs as a boxer and his humanitarian
efforts outside the ring, the 73-year-old Ali
appeared on stage at a downtown theater.
Ali, who is battling Parkinsons disease,
stayed seated but raised his right hand
briefly to acknowledge the crowd, which
chanted Ali! Ali!

In accepting this
award, we are reminded
that Muhammads life
continues to inspire generations of people to discover and cultivate their
own path to greatness
and to use their talents
and successes to empowMuhammad Ali er others in communities
all over the world, said
Alis wife, Lonnie.
Ali heard his name shouted loud again
Thursday night when he was recognized
before the second quarter of Louisvilles
college football game against No. 11
Clemson.
Public appearances by the self-proclaimed Greatest of All Time have diminished in recent years. Ali is scheduled to
attend this years ceremony Saturday for
winners of humanitarian awards named after
Ali. Singer and activist Harry Belafonte and
Academy Award-winning actress Geena
Davis are among the latest winners of
Muhammad Ali Humanitarian Awards.
The ceremony Thursday took place near

Carlmont, he posted his best career varsity


performance, completing 14 of 23 passes
for 212 yards and two touchdowns. He has
totaled 283 yards this season, already
bypassing his season total as a junior backup last season.

Still, Andrews is looking for the backfield

Whats interesting is although we
havent had the production, I think were
capable of it, Andrews said. I still consider us a rushing team. We have a new offensive line were breaking in for the most
part. Now that theyve seen a couple
games and see the adjustments we have to
make, I think were poised for a pretty good
performance.

as a 12-year-old, when he wanted to whip
whoever had stolen his bicycle. Ali became
a regular at the gym, launching a career that
made him an Olympic gold medalist, heavyweight champ and one of the worlds most
recognizable figures.
Ali has focused on humanitarian causes,
promoting racial and religious tolerance,
since retiring from the ring. The Muhammad
Ali Center in Louisville is dedicated to Alis
humanitarian efforts and showcases his
boxing career.
Ali has homes in multiple states, and now
spends much of his time in Arizona.
The event came a day after anti-Islamic
messages were found spray-painted on the

During Thursdays ceremony, the Rev.

said. I think they know we have the makings of a pretty good team and pretty competitive team. We had a good team last year,
we just didnt close [the season]. But they
know we have the pieces.
While Woodside plays in the B-league
Peninsula Athletic League Ocean Division,
and Sequoia plays in the A-league Bay
Division, Poulos said the Woodside matchup
is still a challenging one. Poulos noted
every league game the Cherokees played last
year was against an eventual playoff team,
including two Central Coast Section champions in Sacred Heart Prep and Terra Nova.
Woodside is a step in that direction,
Poulos said. I think they are right on the
cusp of making the playoffs themselves. So,
if we want to make the playoffs, were going
to have to be able to beat teams like that.

SHP sophomore Cate Desler had 13 kills and seven blocks Thursday.

We geared our whole defense


around trying to stop Cate
Desler, Sequoia head coach
Dustyn Woropay said. I think we
did a good job and forced her to hit
it at [Stubblefield].
The Cherokees took Game 1 to
the wire. With the set tied at 21-21
and 24-24. But the Gators took
advantage of rotating Desler into
the front row to put it away 26-24.
In Game 2, the lead changed hands
five times early. But after Desler
gave the Gators the lead for good at
10-9, she produced one of the most
athletic kills of the day to lengthen
the lead to 13-9. Sequoia seemed to
have won the point as SHP struggled to control the ball. As it
careened across the sideline near
net, Desler somehow angled herself
around the post and spun a shot with
enough English to bend it around

By Noah Trister
DETROIT After adding three
more goals to her remarkable
2015 tally, Carli Lloyd was just
happy this game was played.
Lloyds hat trick Thursday night
lifted the United States to another
rout on its Womens World Cup
victory tour, 5-0 over Haiti. The
match was supposed to be against
Australia, but the Aussies canceled
their tour of the U.S. amid a labor
dispute. Haiti agreed to replace
Australia for this game and
Sundays
in
Birmingham,
Alabama.
It would have been very interesting if we didnt have an opponent. I wouldnt want to think
about that, because we might have
had to play in November. Thats
our time off, Lloyd said. We
wish Australia all the best. We
know that theyre fighting the
good cause.
Crystal Dunn added a goal and
two assists, the 23-year-olds first
points for the national team, and
Christen Press also scored for the
Americans. The U.S. extended its
home unbeaten streak to 99
games.
The U. S. is 5-0 against the
Haitians and has outscored them
34-0, but this equaled the smallest
margin of victory in the series.
We have to keep it in perspective,
Haiti
coach
Shek
Borkowski said. These are world
champions, reigning Olympic
champions, arguably the best
team in womens football ever.
Borkowski said Haiti was supposed to play a scrimmage against
Australia in the Detroit area, and

after that was


canceled, the
team agreed to
come to the
U. S.
anyway
and play the
Americans.
The U.S. has
won
eight
straight overall
Carli Lloyd
since a 0-0 tie
against Sweden in the group stage
of the World Cup and are unbeaten in
19 matches (16-0-3) since an exhibition loss at France in February.
Lloyd opened the scoring
Thursday, heading home a cross
from Dunn in the sixth minute.
Dunn added another assist in the
33rd minute when her pass found
Press at the near post.
Dunn was among the final players cut from the World Cup team,
but she led the NWSL with 15
goals for the Washington Spirit.
Everyone asked me what it was
like when I didnt make the team,
but I think it ended up being the
best thing for me, Dunn said. I
was able to take my game back to
the basics and I have a lot more
confidence in myself than I did
four months ago. The NWSL gave
me a huge platform to grow as a
player this summer and let me be a
lot more aggressive.
Lloyd made it 3-0 with a penalty
kick in the 37th.
The Americans began their victory tour by beating Costa Rica
twice by a combined 15-2 last
month. Although the games have
taken on a Globetrotters-versusWashington Generals quality so
far, the U.S. will likely be tested
more in October, when there are a
couple matches against Brazil.

the antenna for the point. She went


on to record six kills in the set.
Sequoia bounced back in Game 3,
jumping out to an early 6-4 lead
with back-to-back kills from junior
opposite Julia Carlson. She tied for
the team-lead with nine kills in the
match with sophomore Gaby LunaVictoria. After Sequoia got back-toback aces from Stubblefield,
Carlson got back into the front row
late in the set to up Sequoias lead to
22-10. She ended with four kills in
the set.
She was the key for us, keeping
us in the game, Woropay said.
In the decisive Game 4, the lead
seesawed until setter Lilika Teu
stepped to the line for SHP. Not
only did the senior team captain
record a season-high 44 assists running the offense. With the set tied
10-10, she went on a five-point
service run, including two aces.
Teus opposite number, Sequoia
setter Emma Cheatham recorded 33
assists.
I think we prepared really good,
Cheatham said. We all play togeth-

er really well. It was an outstanding game and it was a fun one to


play in.
SHP still has plenty of secret
weapons. One proved to be outside
hitter Rachel Cheung who, despite
recording just two kills in the
match, kept the Sequoia defense on
its toes with a flurry of powerful
attempts from the left side. The junior served primarily as a defensive
specialist last year, but began playing as a six-rotation player this
year. And her surprisingly powerful
swing is going to prove valuable to
the middle attack, especially when
Desler also a six-rotation player
anchors the back row.
We have a lot of depth, Magner
said. Literally 15 kids who can
play anywhere at anytime. I think
thats what is really special about
this team.
And the Gators are of the mind the
best is yet to come.
I think were just getting started, Zimits said. Its so much fun. I
cant wait for the rest of the season.

RAIDERS

Its always about numbers,


Musgrave said. You can only
dress 46 guys, and so as a team, we
need to make those decisions and
go forward.

Expert ensemble
in Black Mass
By Jocelyn Noveck
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Shakespeare had his tortured Hamlet, his ambitious Macbeth, his malevolent Iago, his warring
Montagues and Capulets.
But what would the Bard have done with the tale
of James Whitey Bulger, and all the supporting
players around him? There was Whitey himself, at
first a minor criminal who became one of the most
feared crime bosses in history, ruling his turf for
two decades and evading capture for nearly two
more. There was his brother, Billy, who grew up in
the same home in the Southie section of Boston
but became one of the states most powerful politicians. There were the feuding Boston mob and
Bulgers Winter Hill gang. Then the FBI agent
whose efforts to gain Bulgers cooperation led to
his own undoing.
And the FBI itself, which ended up protecting
Bulger for years and facilitating his murderous
rise.
Yes, Shakespeare would have had a field day.
And so does Hollywood, namely director Scott
Cooper and a top-flight ensemble led by Johnny
Depp in a performance that reminds us, after a
string of uninspiring movies, why hes one of our
most compelling actors. Yes, Depp is excellent. But

the star attraction here? Thats the stunning


story itself.
Black Mass, with a taut and effective
screenplay by Mark Mallouk and Jez
Butterworth, is based on the book by
Boston Globe reporters Dick Lehr and
Gerard ONeil (they make a brief appearance here). It begins with police interviews
of Bulgers aging henchmen, then quickly
flashes back to 1975. We meet Bulger as
hes asserting control of the Winter Hill gang,
which is engaged in a bitter turf war with the
Angiulo family.
Luckily for Bulger, a childhood friend has
arrived back in town John Connolly, an ambitious FBI agent. Connolly (a terrific Joel Edgerton
and this Aussie nails the Boston accent, too)
figures the way to make headway quickly is to
bring his old pal into the fold as an informant. He
first goes to Billy, a state senator (a fine Benedict
Cumberbatch), who coldly rebuffs him. Then he
goes directly to Jimmy. You know what I do to
rats, John? Bulger says at first. Connolly
replies: It aint rattin, Jimmy. Its an
alliance. When Jimmy agrees, he rationalizes it thusly: They protect us, and we do

Johnny Depp on
his comeback as
Whitey Bulger
By Jake Coyle
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

TORONTO Theres no surer way to make


Johnny Depp chuckle than to cite those who call
his icy performance as the Boston gangster
Whitey Bulger in Black Mass a return to
form for the actor.
My comeback! Depp wryly
exclaims, his eyes lighting up behind
blue-tinted glasses.
For an actor who has always delighted in head-to-toe transformation, playing
the part of the rebounding superstar is not
one that appeals. It doesnt suit him much,
anyway; his stardom has always been predicated on the wild abandon of his metamorphoses.
I dont watch movies, so I dont
know what other people are doing
because I dont care what other people
are doing, he says. I want to do
what I want to do, and if it works,
great, and if it doesnt, f--- it, I can
pump gas again.
Scott Coopers Black Mass,
which opens Friday, is an expansive look at the bonds of oldneighborhood loyalties that
fostered the FBIs disastrous
shielding of Bulgers

Winter Hill Gang, which eradicated Bostons
Italian mafia only to replace it with a murderous Irish-Catholic fiefdom.
Based on the book by Boston Globe
reporters Dick Lehr and Gerard ONeill, its
the first fact-based movie about the notorious
crime boss and FBI informant (memorably the
inspiration to Jack Nicholsons gangster in
The Departed) since the long-vanished
Bulger was arrested in California in 2011. He
was later sentenced to two life terms for,
among other things, his involvement in 11
murders.
Black Mass is a richly populated ensemble, including Joel Edgerton, Benedict
Cumberbatch and Julianne Nicholson. But
Depps Bulger is the centerpiece of the film,
and it has prompted predictions of an Oscar
nomination for Depp. In a joint interview with
Cooper, the director of Crazy Heart and
Out of the Furnace, the two discussed the
challenges of portraying a folk-hero criminal
who has, as Cooper said, left a real emotional scar on the city of Boston.

whatever the (expletive) we want.
Which is, basically, what happens, as
Connollys plan spirals into a catastrophe for

with impunity. Heres where its absolutely

head of dramatically receding hair, the actor

WEEKEND JOURNAL

THE DAILY JOURNAL

No disrespect to any victims or families of


victims, but there was some element for me
that was kind of glad that he got away, says
Depp. For 16 years he was on the lam and he
wasnt causing any trouble. He was living his
life. Good on him.
With blond hair slicked back and pale freckled skin, Depps Bulger is harrowing in its
sleazy ruthlessness and cold-blooded intimidation, bearing none of the whimsy that has
accompanied some of the 52-year-old actors
recent films like The Lone Ranger and
Mortdecai. But Depp, who sympathetically
played John Dillinger in Michael Manns
Public Enemies, says he sought to find
Bulgers humanity.
You cant approach him as a gangster. You
cant approach him as just innately evil
because no one wakes up and shaves and
goes, `Im an evil mother f------, says Depp.
Hes a Catholic boy and kind of in a weird
way a pillar of the community, very sensitive
in a lot of ways.
Depp calls the first time he emerged from
make-up during the Boston shoot and walked
to set as a frozen moment. Cooper, too,
recalls vividly the chilled reactions by
Bostonians, some of whom knew Bulger and
perhaps werent eager to see him resurrected
on South Boston streets.

Johnny takes risks as an actor that most


movie stars wont even take because theyre
too fearful that theyll lose their audience, that
theyll lose their status as a movie star, says
Cooper, the director of the gritty blue-collar
dramas Crazy Heart and Out of the
Furnace. The emotional and psychological
transformation that I saw in the man who is
sweet and gentle and kind and thoughtful into
that? I dont even know where that comes
from.
I think they call it schizophrenia, retorts
Depp.
Cooper and Depp both reached out to
Bulger, now 86 and incarcerated in a Florida
penitentiary, in hopes of sitting down with
him, if only to soak up his personality and
mannerisms. Depp says Bulger, not a fan of
the book the film is based on, wrote a kind
note declining.
In an email, Bulgers attorney, J.W. Carney,
said: Mr. Bulger considers the book `Black
Mass to be largely a work of fiction, with
made-up incidents and conversations that
have little connection to the actual events.
But Cooper says the most important accuracy for him in a tale so tangled in perspective
was in the larger meanings of Bulgers story.
People dont come to narrative movies for
the facts, he says. They come to movies like

this for psychological truth, for emotion and


humanity. We did our best job telling our version of the story. But only these men know the
truth.
The notion that Black Mass is any sort of
comeback for Depp particularly riles
Cooper. But Depp, whose recent string of
box-office disappointments has been much
chronicled, is merely bemused.
The Mad Hatter is the Mad Hatter. What
am I going to do, play him like Lee Majors?
Depp says. Am I going to go in and play
Tonto as the Native American with no humor
or pride or war paint? Am I going to play
Mordecai straight? No, Im going to have fun
with it. If I have fun with, I believe the people
will have fun with it. All of these films were
s----canned for hopefully none of my doing.
But after a run of fantasy, science-fiction
and comedy, Depps Bulger is grimly grounded in reality, and a welcome reminder that
Depps talents of transformation work just as
well in darkness as in light.
Whatever theyve done in their life
good, bad theyre still human at the end of
the day, and you still have a responsibility. Its
their life, and you have to pay great attention
to that, Depp says. Hopefully if (Bulger) is
at all taken with the portrayal, hell come out
of nowhere and maybe send a letter.

somewhat resembles Jack Nicholson in The


Departed but deftly avoids caricature as he
grows more sinister with every murder.
These include putting a bullet into the head
of an associate who addresses him inappropriately; strangling a disloyal henchman with
chains, and choking to death the young stepdaughter (Juno Temple) of a colleague (her
last gasps are a sound you wont soon forget.)
He becomes so menacing, you truly fear for
the one person seemingly unafraid to talk
back to him: the mother of his young child
(an affecting, but underused Dakota
Johnson).

Then theres a frightening dinner table


scene where Bulger asks for a recipe. Without
revealing too much, lets just say that his sinister, is-he-kidding-or-isnt-he demeanor
immediately recalls Joe Pesci in Goodfellas
in that Im funny, how? scene. Depps
Jimmy isnt manic like Pescis Tommy, but
hes mercurial, and hes scary.
The supporting cast also includes Kevin
Bacon as a skeptical FBI boss, Peter
Sarsgaard as a jittery gang associate, and an
excellent Julianne Nicholson as Connollys
wife.
If you havent read the detailed news

accounts of Bulgers years on the run and


eventual capture, nows not the time in
other words, see the movie first. And marvel
again at how real life really does provide the
best material.

MUSEUM GOTTA SEE UM


By Susan Cohn
DAILY JOURNAL SENIOR CORRESPONDENT

IKU NAGAI PRINTS AND PAINTINGS, AT THE PENINSULA MUSEUM


OF ART IN BURLINGAME. Iku Nagai
Prints and Paintings, a solo exhibition of the
artists works, may be seen in the Peninsula
Museum of Arts Decker and South Galleries
through Dec. 20. The exhibition features
works created since Nagais 1999 retrospective show at the Triton Museum of Art in
Santa Clara, plus two previous enormous canvases. Born in Kyoto, Japan, Nagai was
trained in traditional Japanese painting under
the tutelage of master artists. As a member of
the Imagination Fine Art Association, she
adopted cubism and other Western abstract
techniques as a means of self-expression, producing her iconic Prelude to Vernation
(mixed media with dry mineral pigments and
silver leaf on panel-mounted paper. 83 x 60
inch). Seeking to blend realist and abstract
influences, she later joined the Inten Fine
Art Association and exhibited her paintings,
notably Chairs, at Tokyos National Fine
Art Museum. In 1975, Nagai moved to San
Mateo to further her education. After earning
her Master of Fine Arts at San Jose State
University, she established herself in the Bay
Area art scene, exhibiting her paintings in
local galleries and at the Triton Art Museum
in Santa Clara. Always evolving, Nagai created her own synthesis of historic Japanese aesthetics and contemporary genres. Nagai said:
I have always tried to encourage and adopt
the influence of Western Art. Most established
Japanese painters depict art as symbolic stagelike settings and allegorical scenes, expressively arranged in traditional format. My goal
was to explore the technical innovation and
modernization of Japanese art, and to amalgamate the influence of conventional Japanese
teaching. Through this approach, I worked to

Ag secretary announces goal to cut food waste CHICAGO

By Karen Matthews

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK Agriculture Secretary


Tom Vilsack announced a goal
Wednesday to cut the amount of food
that Americans waste by 50 percent by
2030.
The United States enjoys

the most productive and abundant food


supply on Earth, so too much of this
food goes to waste, Vilsack said in New
York City, where he was joined by foodindustry representatives and officials
from the Environmental Protection
Agency.
Vilsack likened the effort to reduce
food waste to the anti-littering campaigns of the
1960s and 70s
that shamed
Americans
for tossing trash
out car
w i n dows.
This
is the
logical
extension, he
said. This
is the next litter
campaign.
The U.S. Department

of Agriculture estimates that Americans


waste 133 billion pounds of food every
year, or 31 percent of their overall food
supply.
Vilsack said other nations waste similar amounts and the U.S. must lead a
global effort to use food more efficiently. This is an opportunity for us to make
a statement and provide leadership, he
said.
EPA officials said the massive waste is
a problem not just because the food
could feed the hungry but also because it
ends up in landfills and affects the environment.
Twenty-one percent of all the waste
in landfills is food, EPA Deputy
Administrator Stan Meiburg said. Once
its there, it produces methane, which is
a greenhouse gas.
Leslie Sarasin, president and CEO of
the Food Marketing Institute, a food
retailers trade association, said the
industry supports cutting food waste
because it operates on a razor-thin
margin of 1 or 2 percent.

(Mohamed Ismail, who also serves as the MC), reporters
swarm onto her story, dismaying her potential rival, Velma
Kelly (Janelle LaSalle).
All this sets the stage for a series of memorable songs,
such as Cell Block Tango, sung by Velma and the
womens chorus; and When Youre Good to Mama, sung
by Jennifer Taylor Daniels as jail matron Mama Morton.
Others are Razzle Dazzle, sung by Michael Monagle as
Billy Flynn, a fast-talking lawyer; the sweetly poignant Mr.
Cellophane, sung by Joey McDaniel as Amos Hart, Roxies
clueless but loyal husband; and A Little Bit of Good, sung
by N. Sanchez as sob-sister reporter Mary Sunshine.
Santana as Roxie and LaSalle as Velma blend seamlessly
in My Own Best Friend and others.
These are just some of the highlights in this high-energy
production so inventively directed and choreographed by
Janie Scott with musical direction by Katie Coleman, who
conducts the onstage orchestra while playing a mean piano.
The 20s era costumes are by Jeffrey Hamby, but keeping
the mens chorus mostly in their underwear seems like an
odd choice.
All of these elements from performers to artistic staff add
up to one terrific, dont-miss-it show.
Running more than two hours with one intermission,
Chicago will continue at the Lucie Stern Theater, 1395
Middlefield Road, Palo Alto, through Sept. 27. For tickets
and information, call (650) 329-0891 or visit www.paplayers.org.

MEMORIAL
Continued from page 1
will sponsor the creation and installation
of the memorial.
Local officials such as U.S. Rep.
Jackie Speier, D-San Mateo, and state
Sen. Jerry Hill, D-San Mateo, are slated
to attend the event, said Okamoto, along
with
former
journalist
Wendy
Hanamura, who produced a film about
her familys time spent in the camp.
Speier said the harm done to those
interned in San Bruno should be memorialized, so as to never be forgotten.
This is a location people see as a very
large shopping mall, but there was a time
when it was a race track and a time when
people were interned there in horse stables, she said. They were Americans
and their lives were destroyed. In many
cases, they lost their jobs and their
homes. This violated every constitutional
right we espouse, and it is important we
remember it.
Okamoto was one of those who spent
roughly six months with his family living
in a single stall in a horse stable, which
held overflow prisoners who could not fit
in the hastily built barracks set up on the
infield of the former race track.
Though Okamoto was only weeks old
when living at the camp, he said his
mother conveyed to him memories of the
overwhelming stench of horse manure
that prevailed throughout their time as
prisoners.
After the months spent in San Bruno,
Okamoto said he and his family were
sent with thousands of others to Topaz,
Utah, where they were kept captive with
roughly 20,000 others for nearly three
years before their release in 1945.
The memorial, which will be built by
RHAA Architecture, will include a
reconstruction of the door to the horse
stable, in which the 7,800 prisoners who
were interned at the camp will have their
name inscribed, said Okamoto.
San Bruno Mayor Jim Ruane said
he supported the initiative to build

KIPP
Continued from page 1
A primary concern by school officials
has regarded the drain of students from
the district enrollment, brought forth by
the increasing popularity of charter
schools.
KIPP Excelencia Academy and fellow
charter school Rocketship Education both
opened in the Redwood City Elementary
School District this year, joining Connect
Community Charter School, located on
the Fair Oaks Elementary School campus.
In all, the district expects more than 800
students to flee traditional district schools
in favor of charters, yet state law precludes districts from being able
to deny charter applications on
the grounds of causing financial strife.
Amidst a round of bleak
budget negotiations last year,
district officials were forced to
lay off more than 27 full-time
teaching positions, due to the
projected enrollment dip.
Many of the teachers were
eventually hired back under as
the district gained improved
financial footing.
Despite the previous points
of contention, Kyle Shaffer,
principal at KIPP Excelencia
Academy, thanked district officials for their hospitality and
graciousness in allowing the
charter to open its doors.
He credited the will of local
parents who supported the
charter schools desire to open
as one of the driving forces
behind the charters successful
launch.
I am in awe of the power
and commitment of this community, he said.
Isabel Ocampo, mother of a

Bruno.
the memorial.
I think it is important to recognize
what has gone on in the past, he said.
City officials have participated in previous events acknowledging those who
were interned at the site, said Ruane, but
he favored building a larger and more
substantial structure.
This will be more permanent, he
said. I think it is good.
A small plaque is currently posted outside the Shops at Tanforan memorializing the internment camp, but Okamoto
said the larger effort will pay a greater
tribute and bring more recognition to the
memory of the camp.
We are trying to create a memorial
that will honor all 7,800 people, he
said.
The idea to build a memorial came out
of a photo gallery memorializing the
internment camp which was installed at
the BART station, due to the hard work
of local residents Richard Oba and Doug
Yamamoto, which then grew to a more
substantive effort, said Okamoto.
The
willingness
of
RHAA
Architecture to contribute to the construction of the memorial stemmed from
two members of the firm being held at
the camp as well, said Okamoto.

He said it is becoming more important


to build the memorial as soon as possible, because increasingly fewer of those
who were held prisoner at the camp are
alive to see its installation.
Also, the memorial stands to serve a
value in the Japanese culture of honoring
ones predecessors, said Okamoto.
We felt this was a significant and
visual way that we can say to our ancestors we have not forgot about you,
said Okamoto.
He noted the additional importance of
building the memorial to inform current
and future generations of the suffering
caused by the internment camp, as an
effort to try to prevent such a tragedy
from being repeated.
We understand what happened and
we do not want it to happen again, said
Okamoto.
Speier echoed those sentiments.
It is one of those dark moments we
are appropriately embarrassed by and do
not want to repeat, she said.
An event commencing the fundraising
campaign for the Tanforan Assembly
Center Memorial will be 11 a.m.
Saturday, Oct. 31. Due to limited seating, email Steve Okamoto, at
steveokamoto1@gmail.com, to RSVP.

student at the school, expressed tearful


appreciation for the opportunities the
school provides her daughter.
Ocampo had been previously dissatisfied with local education options, but said
KIPP Excelencia Academy changed her
perspective.
For the first time in a long time, I feel
like she is part of a community, Ocampo
said.
Ocampo said she believes her daughter
will receive the education that will set her
on the path to becoming a future leader.
She will grow to believe in herself, and
she will grow to change the world,
Ocampo said.
Redwood City Councilwoman Alicia
Aguirre, who was one of Ocampos former professors at Caada College,
expressed appreciation for the charter
schools opening as well.

To see this happen today is amazing,


she said. Sandberg, who previous to joining Facebook was an executive at Google,
said she believed the education students
will receive at KIPP Excelencia Academy
will lay the groundwork for success.
Roughly 44 percent of students in the
KIPP family of schools, which exist
across the nation, go on to graduate college, according to Sandberg, who said she
expects that figure to increase in coming
years.
The best-selling author and Menlo Park
resident said she supports the collaboration of the school staff, parents and students to work toward the improvement of
the local education community, and
efforts to build the potential leaders of
tomorrow.
We are in this together, she said. We
have to invest in the future.

CLEANUP
Continued from page 1
ways. Its very damaging to our economy, it
costs us close to half a billion dollars every
year to deal with the types of debris that enters
our oceans. Its aesthetically miserable,
nobody likes to go to a dirty beach. And its
incredibly damaging to marine wildlife. Were
losing hundreds of thousands of marine animals and millions of sea birds every year
because of the impacts of debris. This stuff is
deadly once it gets into the ocean and we need
to stop it, said Eben Schwartz, organizer of
the Coastal Commissions event. The
cleanup is so important, its our one chance a
year to get people in every corner of
California out to their local beaches or waterways to clear the trash before the rains start.
Wherever you live, theres an opportunity to
display some environmental stewardship with
more than 30 cleanup locations across San
Mateo County.
Last year, more than 4,200 volunteers collected over 19,000 pounds of trash and recyclables across the county.
Across the state, nearly 67,000 volunteers
collected 1.2 million pounds of trash and

speech advocates contended would amount to
censorship.
Jewish organizations concerned about a
series of incidents on campuses including
swastikas and Hitler graffiti asked the UC
system in March to take a stronger stand and
adopt the U.S. State Departments definition
of anti-Semitism, which includes demonizing
Israel or denying its right to exist.
What UC officials drafted was a statement
that did not include an explicit mention of
anti-Semitism or Israel. The proposed principles aim to protect any individual or group, by

recyclables with the majority comprised of the


ever-deadly cigarette butt, Schwartz said.
This year, officials are hoping to keep the
momentum going and stress the urgency of
preparing for long-awaited rain.
With El Nio coming up after five years of
drought, what were looking at is a situation
where we have a lot of historic trash in creek
beds, riverbeds and lakebeds that were covered. And once the rain starts, all of that will
flow out to the ocean. So if we can stop the
trash where it starts, we have a much better
chance at keeping our oceans clean,
Schwartz said.
The fun and educational event includes volunteers recording what they collect which
provides information that helps inform future
legislative efforts and highlights the efficacy
of existing laws, said Jo Chamberlin, president of the Coastside Land Trust in Half
Moon Bay.
In prior years, plastic bags were a frequent
find during cleanup days but, since the county banned them, Chamberlin said shes
thrilled to report theyre found less frequently.
This is more of a scientific and methodical
cleanup day. The Coastal Commission set it
up this way and it helps us to understand what
types of trash are ending up on the bluff tops
and therefore in the ocean. So potential legislation in the future could help curtail that. And

just the value of public education; people


dont realize that putting a cigarette butt on
the sidewalk is going to end up in the ocean.
So its public education and consciousness
building, Chamberlin said.
The cleanup also has an amusing twist as
the Coastal Commission wants to hear about
wacky items in categories like funniest, heaviest/largest, most unusual, most valuable and
reusable.
Schwartz recalled a memorable find out of
Monterey when a high school student uncovered a book with two tickets to the 1921 inaugural party for President Warren G. Harding.
The rare discovery made the local news and
an elderly woman in a nursing home realized
the book had belonged to her. Her family had
fallen on hard times and was forced to sell
most of their belongings. Ultimately, the elderly woman was reunited with the decades-old
book, Schwartz said.
Last year, some unique local items included
a fire extinguisher from 1973, a whole set of
womens undergarments and a giant penguin
bean bag, said Julia Au, Coastal Cleanup Day
coordinator with the San Mateo County
Environmental Health Division.
From 9 a.m. to noon, volunteers and youth
interested in learning firsthand about environmental stewardship are urged to join at one of
the more than 30 locales across the county.

Its great to show support for our natural


resources and show that our environment is
very fragile. All of this stuff comes from us,
its litter, its cigarette butts, its plastic wrappers; we generate it, Au said. People have
probably spent all summer playing in and
around our waterways and we should give
back by just spending a couple hours cleaning
up.
While all noted the importance of being
mindful about daily habits and picking up
trash year-round, this Saturday provides an
important opportunity for Californians to
shift gears, give back and create lifelong
habits.
We want Coastal Cleanup Day to be the
doorway to a year of coastal stewardship for
the folks who participate and the folks who
read about it. Its just a three-hour event, but
when the volunteers are out there, its very
easy to make the connection between the stuff
they pick up and what they use in their daily
lives, Schwartz said. Eighty percent of what
we pick up every year is single-use disposable
plastics; much of which is replaceable with a
reusable product.

calling for its 10 campuses to be free from


acts and expressions of intolerance. It would
prohibit depicting or articulating a view of
ethnic or racial groups as less ambitious, less
hardworking or talented, or more threatening
than other groups, among other things.

ty to consider adopting such a set of principles


against intolerance.
To not recognize why this subject is even
being brought up is to do a disservice to those
who brought it up in the first place, he said.
His comments were echoed by other regents
and welcomed by Jewish students and groups.
They said they hope a new statement will
address a rash of anti-Semitic incidents.
They want to examine the issue and for
that were grateful, said Tammi RossmanBenjamin, executive director of the AMCHA
Initiative, which fights to end anti-Semitism
on campuses. There is a difference between
taking a position against a government and
calling for its elimination.
Jewish groups say campus debates over the
Israeli-Palestinian conflict were disintegrating

into the harassment of Jewish students. The


State Departments definition of antiSemitism clearly identifies the different forms
of anti-Semitism that exist, they say.
UC President Janet Napolitano in a May
radio interview had expressed support for
adopting the State Departments definition.
Critics of Israel said it was too soon to tell
what a revamped statement would look like,
or mean.
As a Jewish student, obviously I have
every interest in combatting anti-Semitism
where it does exist on campus, said David
McCleary, a statewide executive board trustee
for the UC student workers union. That
said, we cant be conflating legitimate criticism of a political ideology and the actions of
a government with anti-Semitism.

Groups critical of Israels treatment of


Palestinians applauded the omission of the
State Departments definition in the statement, saying they feared it could be used to
silence them. But Jewish groups said they felt
the university was ignoring a problem that
needed to be addressed.
On Thursday, Regent Norman Pattiz urged
the body to take a real stand against the antiSemitic incidents described by students and
said that was the intent behind making such a
declaration. UC is the first statewide universi-
