Feds help county expand addiction services

First waiver in state to use federal dollars for extended treatment of substance abuse
By Bill Silverfarb

San Mateo County is the first in

SAN FRANCISCO Migrating

humpback whales have been swimming into San Francisco Bay in
unprecedented numbers during the past
two weeks an onslaught that
experts say could be caused by an
unusual concentration of anchovies
near shore.
As many as four humpbacks at a time
have been spotted flapping their tails
and breaching in bay waters, apparently feeding on the anchovies and other
schooling fish during incoming tides.
Its normal for gray whales to wander
into the bay, but humpbacks generally
feed farther offshore and are not accustomed to navigating shallow water and
narrow straits such as those in San
Francisco Bay.
Mary Jane Schramm, a spokeswoman for the Greater Farallones
National Marine Sanctuary, said she
and other marine experts worry that
the whales could swamp boats while
breaching, get hit by a ship or
spooked by people who paddle or sail
out to see them.
Others are excited to see the whales.
I had never seen humpback whales
before, and it was awesome, said
Laurie Duke, 54, who volunteers at the
Marine Mammal Center and Golden
Gate Cetacean Research. They were
mostly coming partially out of the
water, showing their tails.

Voter registration
sees jump in April
Numbers not much different from November election
By Bill Silverfarb
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

An average of more than 100 people per

day have registered to vote in San Mateo
County since the end of March as the June 7
primary nears.
Voter registration has surged across the
state in recent months, leading to Gov.
Jerry Brown approving $16 million in extra
funds to elections clerks in 58 California
counties to handle the extra work.
That equates to about $320,000 for this
county, said Jim Irizarry, assistant assessorcounty clerk-recorder.
Since the beginning of April, 4,078 individuals registered to vote in the county.
The total number of registered voters in
the county now is 357,820. The number,
however, is only slightly higher than the
voter rolls showed in this past Novembers
election when 357,448 individuals were
registered to vote.
Thats because the county cleansed the
roll in February, taking individuals off the
list who moved out of the county or may
have died, Irizarry said.
In February, the number of registered voters in the county dropped to 350,775, he
said.
Since then, however, the numbers have
increased at a steady pace.
There was a spike in April but it appears
to be leveling off, Irizarry said.
Tuesday, Mark Church, the countys chief
elections officer and assessor-county clerk-

Comment on

www.smdailyjournal.com
recorder, announced that the Registration
and Elections Division will train and temporarily hire about 1,400 election officers
for the June 7 presidential primary election.
Election officers, also referred to as poll
workers, will manage 342 precincts on
Election Day.
Much of the surge statewide was attributed
to a hotly-contested GOP primary with
Donald Trump, Ted Cruz and John Kasich on
the ballot. Although Cruz and Kasich have
dropped out of the race, their names will
still appear on the primary ballot.
Elections offices have also been tasked
with verifying signatures for up to 20 ballot
initiatives trying to qualify for the
November election when voters will decide
whether to approve marijuana for recreational use and extend increases on income
and sales taxes.
Many counties have hired temporary
workers to help verify thousands of signatures.
The surge in voter registration across the
state is unusual not only in the amount of
registrations but in how early it began,
according to the California Association of
Clerks and Elections Officials. Clerks generally see a spike in registration in the days
and weeks leading up to the voter registration deadline, which this year is May 23.

Limo fire: Survivor recounts

desperate escape from flames
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

REDWOOD CITY A woman who was the

last to escape a burning limousine on a
California bridge three years ago testified in
a wrongful death trial how she couldnt see or
breathe through thick, black smoke and
thought she was going to die inside the limo
where five of her friends perished.
Amalia Loyola was the final passenger to
testify in the wrongful death suit against the
Ford Motor Company. The suit was brought
by a widower of one of the passengers who
died.
Loyola testified that after the limo
bounced on the freeway, carrying her and
eight friends over the bridge, thick, black,
acrid smoke started rising from the floor.
She couldnt breathe or see.
I couldnt see my friends, she told the
jury, speaking in short, halting sentences,
sometimes pausing to take a breath.
Breathing was so difficult in the fire she
couldnt speak. I couldnt open my mouth.
Two of the women managed to shimmy
through the small partition to the drivers
seat. Loyola waited her turn behind friend
Jasmin De Guia.
She got stuck on her hip, said Loyola,
51, who tried to push her friend through. A

San Francisco soda tax backers

say measure will be on ballot
By Janie Har
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO Backers of

a sugary drink tax say the issue
will be on San Franciscos
November ballot, despite missing
a key deadline by one day.
Campaign
organizers
had
announced Thursday morning that
they had collected nearly double
the number of signatures required
to qualify.
But elections director John
Arntz, whose office verifies the
signatures, said the campaign
missed the deadline to submit
those signatures.
The campaign called the mishap
a technical error, and vowed to
continue the fight against soda
companies whose products they
say contribute to obesity, diabetes and a host of other health
ills.
Supervisors can place a measure
on the ballot or soda tax support-

Were not just going to sit back while

our families suffer, while our parents suffer,
while children get manipulated by the big
soda industry and the community is destroyed.
San Francisco Supervisor Malia Cohen

ers can also choose to circulate

another petition and collect the
9,485 signatures needed by July
11.
Berkeley became the first city in
the country to approve a soda tax,
in 2014. That year, a San
Francisco campaign for a sugary
drink tax failed at the ballot, as it
did not get the two-thirds approval
needed for a dedicated tax.
This years proposal for a general tax of one cent per ounce needs
a simple majority to pass.
Were not just going to sit back
while our families suffer, while our
parents suffer, while children get
manipulated by the big soda indus-

try and the community is

destroyed, said San Francisco
Supervisor Malia Cohen earlier
Thursday, surrounded by advocates.
CalBev, the organization that
represents non-alcoholic beverage companies, said in a statement
that the tax would only hurt small
businesses and that it is unfair to
single out one product.
The signatures collected will not
be verified.
Also following in the footsteps
of Berkeley, Oakland officials
have placed a sugary sweetened
drink tax on the November ballot.

SAN FRANCISCO The

California state bar pays its executives more than the governor and
has failed to present a clear picture of its finances to the
Legislature, according to a state
audit released Thursday.
The audit is the latest blow to
the nations largest state bar,
which has also been accused of
failing to protect the public from
bad lawyers and experienced years
of infighting.
According to the audit, the bars
financial reports have contained
errors and lacked transparency in
recent years, making it difficult
for the Legislature to set appropriate attorney dues.
To practice law, attorneys must
be members of the bar, a public
corporation created by the
Legislature.
The bar collects yearly dues
from attorneys that largely fund
its operations.

The salary ranges for the state

bars 13 top executives exceed the
salary of the governor, according
to the audit. Gov. Jerry Brown
makes a little under $183,000 a
year.
The bar could save as much as
$428,000 annually if it capped
its executive staff salaries below
the level of chief operations officer at the highest level allowed
for similar state positions,
according to the audit.
The audit also says the bar is
millions of dollars short in funds
needed to pay victims of attorney
fraud, so it now takes about 36
months for victims to get paid, up
from 18 months.
State Bar Executive Director
Elizabeth Parker said the bars
new leadership team has made significant progress in addressing
the audits concerns. She cited a
plan to include state government
executive branch salaries in a
study and noted an effort to recover money owed by disciplined
attorneys.

California Senate suspends its

lobbyist fundraising restrictions
By Jonathan J. Cooper
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SACRAMENTO

The
California Senate on Thursday
reversed the fundraising blackout
it imposed after a series of ethical
violations led to the suspension
of three senators in 2014, a day
before senators would have been
forced to stop some fundraising
just ahead of the June primary.
The restrictions barred lawmakers from seeking or accepting
campaign contributions from lob-

byists during certain periods. One

such period begins after the governor releases his revised budget,
which is scheduled for Friday.
Senate President Pro Tem Kevin
de Leon, D-Los Angeles, said
incumbent senators shouldnt
have to unilaterally disarm in
the face of opponents who can
raise and spend millions to attack
them.
This is David vs. Goliath, and
we cannot take away the slingshot
from David, de Leon said after the
vote.

Trump, Ryan pledge to work together, see end to GOP rift

By Erica Werner
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Straining to mend their

party after months of chaos, Donald Trump
and House Speaker Paul Ryan declared themselves totally committed to working
together after a fence-mending personal
meeting on Thursday. Ryan praised Trump
as very warm and genuine, and suggested
that after initial hesitance he may well end
up endorsing the GOP candidate for president.
We will have policy disputes. There is no
two ways about that. The question is, can we
unify on the common core principles that
make our party? Ryan said. And Im very
encouraged that the answer to that question
is yes.
Trump, who used the day to launch a
robust charm offensive with members of
Congress, broadcast his own enthusiasm,
on Twitter and on TV. I really think we had
a great meeting today, and I think we agree
on a lot of things and itll be a little process
but itll come along . Im pretty sure, he
said in an interview recorded for Fox News

capped a remarkable week that began with

and its 2012 vice presidential nominee,

Congress asking if D.C. government can spend its own money

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON House Republicans are

looking into whether the District of
Columbia government truly has the power
to spend local tax dollars without approval
by Congress.
Mayor Muriel Bowser, a Democrat, has
pledged not to submit this years local
budget to Congress after a judge ruled in

favor of the Districts budget autonomy

law, but House Speaker Paul Ryan and other
Republican leaders believe the city doesnt
have the authority to remove Congress
from the budget process. An oversight subcommittee chaired by Rep. Mark Meadows,
a North Carolina Republican, will examine
the issue at a hearing Thursday.
The D.C. governments actions attempt
to strip Congress of its Article 1 powers,

said AshLee Strong, a spokeswoman for

Ryan. The speaker supports Chairman
Meadows efforts to show the unlawfulness
of the D.C. Budget Autonomy Act.
The arcane issue of how and when the city
can spend its money is a big deal to advocates of home rule, who say the local government should not be treated like a federal
agency. The city government has been
forced to close during federal shutdowns,

even though it had the money to stay open.

Submitting the budget to Congress also
forces the city to follow the federal fiscal
year, which starts in October, complicating
school funding.
Congress granted home rule to the
District in 1973, allowing city residents to
elect their own mayor and council but maintaining the final say over the citys budget
and laws.

WASHINGTON In a setback for the Obama health care

law, a federal judge ruled Thursday that the administration is
unconstitutionally subsidizing medical
bills for millions of people while ignoring congressional power over government spending.
The ruling from U.S. District Judge
Rosemary Collyer was a win for House
Republicans who brought the politically
charged legal challenge in an effort to
undermine the law.
If the decision is upheld, it could roil
Rosemary
the health care laws insurance markets,
Collyer
which are still struggling for stability
after three years. Collyer said her ruling would be put on
hold while it is appealed. The White House expressed confidence it would be overturned.
At issue is the $175 billion the government is paying to
reimburse health insurers over a decade to reduce deductibles
and co-payments for lower-income people.
The House argues that Congress never specifically appropriated that money and has denied an administration request
for it. Collyer agreed that the administration is exceeding
its constitutional authority by spending the money anyway. She rejected the administrations argument that the law
authorizes the money automatically because the program is
considered an entitlement like Social Security and
Medicaid.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

DAMASCUS, Syria Al-Qaida fighters

and other ultraconservative Sunni insurgents seized a predominantly Alawite village in central Syria on Thursday, sparking
fears of sectarian violence as families from
the village were reported missing by
activists.
Syrian Prime Minister Wael al-Halqi said
terrorists were killing residents of the village of Zaara, previously controlled by the
government. Syrian state media said insurgents had looted and destroyed homes.
Clashes continued into the afternoon as
government or allied Russian aircraft
pounded rebel positions, the Britain-based
Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said,
adding that seven militants were killed. The
Local Coordination Committees, an
activist-run network, said the insurgents
killed over 30 pro-government fighters in
the clashes.
Ahrar al-Sham, an ultraconservative
Sunni militant group, led the assault on
Zaara, along with the Nusra Front, al-

Qaidas Syrian franchise, which often fights

alongside opposition factions. The
Observatory, which covers both sides of the
conflict through a network of local
activists, said families disappeared from
Zaara after the militants took over.
Syrias conflict began with peaceful
protests against President Bashar Assad but
escalated into a civil war after a brutal government crackdown and the rise of an armed
insurgency. It became increasingly sectarian with the rise of Sunni insurgent groups
and the arrival of Shiite militants from
across the region to fight alongside Assads
government.
Assad and his family are Alawites, an offshoot of Shiite Islam, while the majority of
Syrians are Sunni Muslims. Both the government and the opposition claim to represent the entire country with its various religious minorities, but armed groups on both
sides have carried out sectarian attacks.
The International Committee for the Red
Cross had to cancel a 24-truck aid convoy to
the town of al-Houla, near Zaara, citing
security concerns. The ICRC did not say
whether it was related to the clashes in
Zaara.

Stand together to promote equality

By Dave Pine and Stevie Stallmeyer

n important new coalition known

as Transform California was
recently launched in the Bay Area.
Transform California brings together individuals and groups who are committed to
transgender equality and eliminating violence and discrimination against the transgender community.
We are proud to be part of this important
movement dedicated to a future in which
people are treated fairly regardless of their
gender identication. A transgender person
is simply a person whose birth certicate
listed their sex as something different than
their authentic gender identity. Thats it
and nothing more.
But a lack of understanding often drives
suspicion, hate and even violence. In
2015, no less than 22 transgender people
were murdered in the United States. The
majority of the victims were transgender
women of color. In California, we know of
at least three women killed in 2015, and so
far in 2016 there have been two more.
These statistics are disturbing and unacceptable. Yet theyre not going to change
unless we as Californians stand

together and pledge to

take proactive measures
to educate our communities and promote equality and awareness.
To that end, the San
Mateo County Board of
Supervisors, at the
request of our countys
Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual,
Transgender and Queer
(LGBTQ) Commission,
recently adopted a resolution in support of
Assembly Bill 1732
authored by
Assemblyman Phil Ting,
D-San Francisco, that
would require all singleuser toilet facilities in
businesses, government buildings and
places of public accommodation to be identied as all-gender toilet facilities, and designated for use by no more than one occupant at a time or for family or assisted use.
This small step is one of many along the
path to provide dignity and respect to
everyone. The county has also sponsored a
Transgender Day of Remembrance, an
observance on Nov. 20, honoring the
memory of those whose lives were ended

Guest
perspective
by acts of anti-transgender violence.
If we fail to take this on, we will continue to see harmful and discriminatory policies divide our society and foment fear. Our
hope is that Transform California serves as
a catalyst in establishing greater acceptance and respect for the transgender community.
To help kick off this effort, Transform
California will hold a rally May 14 at 2:30
p.m. at San Jose City Hall, 200 E. Clara
St. featuring a range of speakers including
U.S. Rep. Mike Honda.

California, visit the coalition website at

pledge today.

Letters to the editor

Beware of Proposition 50
Editor,
Proposition 50 is not what it seems.The
state lawmakers voted virtually unanimously, with just two no votes, to put it on
the ballot.That should have been the red
ag for the voters.
In essence, Proposition 50 makes it
more difcult to discipline our lawmakers.
It would increase the threshold for taking
action against a renegade member from 50
percent to 67 percent which would allow
any lawmaker and their cronies to
stonewall any action being brought up by
the body.There is absolutely no reason for
raising the existing threshold for taking
action other than to protect the scalawags
who violated ethics or the law.The lawmakers have one thing going for them: 90
percent of the voters will never read the
voters pamphlet that was sent to every
household.

rents, understanding that these newcomers

can afford them on their salaries.
If Honda Civics are for sale, and the
sticker price is $30,000, then does it make
sense to sell them in more upscale communities like Beverly Hills for $45,000?
Hell, no. That means you are price gouging. Now, if I rented a car to a person for a
day, that car would have to be modern and
clean inside to justify what I am renting it
for, and not smelling like cigarette smoke
and be 15 years old.
The landlords are displacing people
because before these newcomers came, they
were still making a handsome living off of
what people were paying them to rent. This
problem is even more disturbing because
housing is a vital necessity. Cars and DVD
players, not so.

Blazing a trail
for our seniors
By Natalya Alazraie

lazing a Trail is the theme for

celebrating May as Older
Americans Month this year.
The month of May will be used by the
Administration for Community Living as an
opportunity to raise awareness about many
important issues older
citizens face daily. As the
population of elder
Americans is expected to
double by the year of
2030, and to triple by the
year of 2050, there is a
need to blaze a trail of
better support, assistance, protection and
opportunities for seniors
in the United States. The Older Americans
Act reauthorization bill passed in the U.S.
Senate April 7 and was signed into law April
19. It has blazed a trail by giving seniors
hope for better care and support they
deserve.
Why is the reauthorization of the Older
Americans Act important? Studies have
shown almost half on the population of the
United States cares for a senior parent, or a
senior relative. It is especially difcult on
working adults who are the family members
taking care of their elders. To stabilize seniors in their homes and communities, it must
be a responsibility of our society to provide
and nance more programs for them and
their caregivers.
What do seniors need and how do they
deserve better assistance and quality programs? Seniors once were a productive part of
our society. They were just like the rest of us,
hardworking and engaged members of various communities. Many served in a military
protecting our country and its citizens, many
built homes and ofces we utilize day to day,
many are still teachers in schools our children attend. Unfortunately, many of these
seniors are below poverty level because of
the circumstances that took control over
their lives. In many cases, disease, loss of a
spouse, divorce, tragedies and disasters interfered with their well-being. This is when
these previously functional and capable, but
now vulnerable, members of our communities nd themselves in need of more support.
We all should be able to understand that
there is no future without the past and no
past without the future. What we are asking
today is to pay our seniors back with the
same respect we would wish to receive as we
all get older. Seniors deserve to live in dignity, to have access to quality food, to be
able to have a caregiver to help the with
basic tasks related to activities of daily living, to have government protection when
they get nancially or physically abused, to
have transportation services available to
take them to doctors appointments and to
have access to community agencies providing social support and mental services.
As we celebrate Older Americans Month, it
is our responsibility to advocate on behalf
of the older American citizens. It is important to promote activities and events in our
wonderful and supportive community to
show we care about our seniors and they are
included, not excluded from our daily lives. It
is a privilege to have an opportunity to
enjoy seniority; and it is up to all citizens to
do something to blaze the trail to promote
dignity of our seniors. It is each citizens
responsibility to show our seniors they are
worthy and deserve to be respected and honored. It is the responsibility of the government to prove to our seniors that they are
respected and protected, and have an opportunity to age successfully.
Natalya Alazraie is a senior services manager with MidPen Housing Corporation
working with low-income seniors at Half
Moon Village, a new independent living
community in Half Moon Bay. She provides
services and referrals to 193 seniors of the
community, and is working on her masters
in social work degree at the University of
Southern California.

poised itself for a trifecta. After sharing a West
Catholic Athletic League title with St. Francis
in the regular season, the Padres were keen to
set their sights on also capturing both the
WCAL tournament title and a Central Coast
Section championship.

Thursday night, backed

by a complete-game victory by senior right-hander Chris Apecechea, Serra
reached the second leg of
its postseason journey,
downing St. Francis 6-2
in the WCAL tournament
championship game at
Schott Stadium at Santa
Angelo
Clara University. The
Bortolin
tourney title marks the
Padres first since 2012.

The title is a vindication of sorts for the

Padres, who had the outright WCAL title within their reach before being stunned by St.
Francis on April 26, when the Lancers rallied
for three runs in the top of the seventh inning
to prevail in a 4-3 comeback win, ultimately
sealing the co-championship between the
archrivals.
We were tied (in the regular season) but we
won this one, Serra senior Angelo Bortolin
said. So we can always have that. We won
first place twice, I guess.
Bortolin was a beast at the plate through

Serras three tourney wins, going 7 for 10

with four doubles and six RBIs. With the
Padres trailing 2-0 in the fourth Thursday, it
was his big swing of the bat with a two-run
double that tied the game. He finished the
night going 2 for 3, his third multi-hit game
of the tourney.
If I had to pitch against him I would probably just put him on base, Serra manager
Craig Gianinno said. That explains that. I
would probably just say take your four pitches

The Giants finally get

over on Zack Greinke
Giants 4, D-backs 2

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

PHOENIX Johnny Cueto pitched seven

strong innings for San Francisco, Zack
Greinke had another rough outing at home for
Arizona and the Giants opened a four-game
series with a 4-2 victory over the
Diamondbacks on Thursday night.
Joe Panik hit a two-run homer off Greinke,
who fell to 1-3 in five home starts. Chris
Owings had an RBI triple for Arizona.
Cueto (5-1) allowed two runs and eight hits,
striking out nine and walking two in a
matchup of two of the highest-priced free
agent pitchers last offseason. Cueto signed a
six-year, $130 million contract, which was
dwarfed by Greinkes six-year, $206.5 million
deal.
Greinke (3-3) gave up four runs and eight
hits in six innings, raising his ERA to 5.26 in
eight starts. Greinke led the majors with a
1.66 ERA last season.
Arizona mounted a serious threat in the
ninth against closer Santiago Casilla when a
pinch-hit double by Phil Gosselin and single
by Jean Segura put runners at first and third
with one out. Casilla struck out Brandon
Drury, but walked Paul Goldschmidt to load the
bases. Left-hander Javier Lopez relieved
Casilla and got left-handed batting Jake Lamb
to ground out, earning his first save since
Sept. 19, 2013.
The Diamondbacks fell to 5-13 at home.
Greinke has allowed 24 runs in five home
starts. Last season, he gave up 19 runs in 17

starts at home for the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Greinke blanked the Giants on one hit
through three innings before consecutive singles by Matt Duffy, Buster Posey and Brandon
Belt tied it at 1. A fielders choice groundout by
Hunter Pence gave San Francisco a 2-1 lead.
Denard Span singled to start the fifth. Then,

Thunder beat the

Spurs in Game 6,
will face Warriors

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

OKLAHOMA CITY The Thunder flipped

the script, and now theyre heading to the
Western Conference finals.
Tim Duncan doesnt know yet where hes
headed as the San Antonio Spurs face an
uncertain future.
Kevin Durant scored 37 points, Russell
Westbrook added 28, and Oklahoma City
beat San Antonio 113-99 on Thursday night
to win the Western Conference semifinal
series 4-2.
Oklahoma City lost 124-92 in Game 1,
but first-year coach Billy Donovan led the
Thunder to victory in four of the next five.
Oklahoma City controlled Game 6, leading
by as many as 28 points.
Westbrook said the Thunder never lost
confidence.
We had that game, and we left it behind
us, he said. We came out after that and had
a different mindset. We knew what we had to
do to win the series. Theyre a great team.
Theyve been winning for 10-plus years,
same pace. Im just proud of our guys.
Steven Adams had 15 points and 11
rebounds, and Andre Roberson added 14

points for the Thunder. Oklahoma City now

will face defending NBA champion Golden
State, starting Monday in Oakland,
California.
Golden States a great team, Donovan
said. It will be a great challenge. Weve got
a little bit of time to prepare before we play,
but right now, for us, its just to enjoy the
opportunity to move on, get a chance to
continue to play and get as prepared as we
can going into Game 1.
The Spurs were trying to extend the winningest season in franchise history after
going 67-15. The 40-year-old Duncan struggled for much of the series before scoring 19
points as San Antonio tried to fight back in
the fourth quarter.
Duncan didnt clear anything up about his
future after the game. He has a player option
for next season.
Ill get to that after I get out of here and
figure life out, he said.
Kawhi Leonard scored 22 points and
LaMarcus Aldridge added 18 for the Spurs.
San Antonio lost just once at home during
the regular season, but the Thunder beat the
Spurs twice in San Antonio during the
series.

Day scorches TPC Sawgrass, leads Players

By Doug Ferguson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. One birdie

led to two more before Jason Day even hit his
stride, and his round kept getting better until
the worlds No. 1 player was in the record
book and in the lead Thursday at The Players
Championship.
He putted for birdie on every hole. His
longest putt for par was 30 inches.
Day was as flawless as the morning conditions summer heat, surprising calm. When
he blasted out of a tiny bunker within inches
of the cup on his final hole, he had a 9-under
63, a two-shot lead and a fresh memory of the
TPC Sawgrass.
His most recent round was an 81 last year
to miss the cut. This one tied the course
record.
It just kept on building and building, this
round, just one after another, Day said. It
just got better and better.
His opening day improved even more after
he finished. The Stadium Course was so vulnerable, mainly because of receptive greens
and no wind, that 29 players from the morning group shot in the 60s. A strong breeze
finally arrived after Day was done, making it

difficult for anyone to catch him.

I dont know what the guys were doing out
there this morning, but I dont think we saw
the same golf course this afternoon, Rory
McIlroy said after a 72. It was a little firmer,
the wind got up a little bit and those guys
made the course look awfully easy this morning.
Jordan Spieth couldnt say the same. He
played with Day and couldnt keep up.
In his first tournament since losing a fiveshot lead at the Masters, Spieth dropped three
shots over his last five holes and labored to a
72. He ended with a double bogey on the par5 ninth when it took him five shots to get
down from a bunker behind the green.
I hit two fantastic shots, Spieth said,
and then not really sure after that.
Masters champion Danny Willett, rusty
from a month of being home with a newborn
son and a green jacket, opened with a 70.
There were 40 rounds in the 60s and 82
rounds under par, the most at The Players
since 1993. Even so, Day was eight shots
better than the average score of the
strongest and deepest field in golf.
Tee to green was pretty decent was
actually really good and then once I got
on the green, I felt like I could hole every-

Jason Day shot a 9-under 63 to set a new

record at TPC Sawgrass and take the
first-round lead at the Players Championship.
thing, he said.
Shane Lowry became the first player to
shoot 29 on the back nine. He was in the
group at 65 that included Justin Rose and Bill
Haas. Ernie Els, who just last month started
the Masters with a six-putt quintuple bogey,
ran off six birdies and an eagle to lead the
group at 66.
Rose looked at the pin positions and had a

good feeling, especially on the island-green

17th. It was at the front, with a ridge serving
as a backboard. By mid-afternoon, only four
shots found the water. And with hardly any
wind and greens still moderately soft, good
scores were available.
If there was a day to get the course, today
was it, Rose said.
Day wasted no time.
He knocked in a 30-foot putt on his first
hole, caught a good break on the par-5 11th
by having a clear gap out of the pine trees
that set up a birdie from the bunker, and made
it three straight birdies with a wedge into 6
feet on the 12th.
He felt tired. But there was no stress.
Day only got into what looked like trouble
on two occasions. He had a stick behind his
ball from the pine straw on the par-5 second
hole and sent that shot well out to the right.
But he hit a perfect pitch that just landed on
the green and rolled down to a foot for a
birdie.
On the seventh, Days drive hit the back
end of a bunker and kicked forward down a
slope and just inside the red hazard line of a
pond, about a yard from the water. He worried
about his wedge going long, but it settled 15
feet away for a birdie.

Pop Warner bans kickoffs in three age groups

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LANGHORNE, Pa. Pop Warner said

Thursday it is eliminating kickoffs in its
three youngest football divisions, another
safety-focused rules change sure to be
noticed and discussed at higher levels of the
game.
The ban will begin this fall. Instead of
kickoffs, the ball will be placed at the 35yard line to start each half and following
scores in the Tiny Mite (ages 5-7), Mitey
Mite (7-9) and Junior Pee Wee (8-10) divisions.
The organization, which began in 1929
and has 225,000 athletes enrolled in football ages 5-15, said it will review the results
of the rules change after next season as it
considers implementing the same ban in
older age divisions.
Pop Warner also announced a further
reduction in contact time during practice,
meaning the players will not be hitting,
blocking or tackling each other as much.
The 33 percent rule that was implemented in
2012 is being lowered, to 25 percent, for all
divisions.

We are constantly working to make the game safer and better for
our young athletes, and we think this move is an important step in
that direction. Eliminating kickoffs at this level adds another layer of
safety without changing the nature of this great game.
Jon Butler, Pop Warner executive director

We are constantly working to make the

game safer and better for our young athletes,
and we think this move is an important step
in that direction, said Jon Butler, Pop
Warners executive director. Eliminating
kickoffs at this level adds another layer of
safety without changing the nature of this
great game.
The NFL has wrestled with kickoffs as
well in hopes of reducing high-speed collisions by players that can lead to injuries. In
2011, kickoffs were moved from the 30 to
the 35-yard line, dramatically increasing
the number of touchbacks, where the ball
was not returned by the receiving team.
Earlier this year, the NFL approved a oneyear trial in which the ball will be placed at
the 25-yard line after touchbacks on kick-

offs instead of at the 20, added incentive for

the receiving team.
The Pop Warner moves come about a
month after the organization settled a lawsuit brought by a Wisconsin woman who
alleged her 25-year-old sons suicide in
2012 resulted from brain injuries he suffered
while playing youth football. Debra Pyka
was seeking at least $5 million from the
Langhorne, Pennsylvania-based Pop
Warner Little Scholars, the Pop Warner
Foundation and their insurance company.
The federal lawsuit alleged Joseph
Chernach suffered from a degenerative brain
disease known as chronic traumatic
encephalopathy, or CTE, and also had postconcussion syndrome. The suit alleged the
conditions were caused by playing in a Pop

Warner league from 1997-2000, beginning

when he was 11.
Earlier this week, 18-year-old Donnovan
Hill died at a California hospital of complications from surgery related to management
of his injury, a family attorney said. Hill
was largely paralyzed from an injury he suffered during a 2011 Pop Warner game when
he was 13. He and his mother reached a
seven-figure settlement with the organization after filing a lawsuit claiming the
league had promoted a dangerous headfirst
tackling technique.
In 2010, Pop Warner implemented a youth
sport concussion policy that said any player removed from a practice or game due to a
head injury may not return until evaluated
and cleared by a licensed medical professional. Two years later, Pop Warner banned
full-speed, head-on blocking and tackling
drills in which players are lined up more
than three yards apart.
The organization has a total enrollment
of 325,000 including football cheer and
dance, and its enrollment number of
225,000 in football has been flat since
2012.

ONeill eyes Preakness rerun with Nyquist

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BALTIMORE The last time trainer Doug

ONeill brought a Kentucky Derby winner to
Baltimore he did much more than merely prepare Ill Have Another for the Preakness.
ONeill was a guest at the Baltimore Ravens
rookie camp, threw out the ceremonial first
pitch at an Orioles game and capped the visit
with a victory in the second leg of the Triple
Crown.
Baltimore is just a great city, ONeill said

and well deal with the rest later and live by
that. But you saw the performance he put on
tonight. He showed the opposite-field power
that he has, the pull-side power that he has;
its just such a fear and presence in the box.
Other than Bortolins loud contact, the contest was defined by doink singles and infield
hits. But the difference in the game resulted in
a tale of two popups; Serra had a key popup
fall in, while one hit by St. Francis didnt.
Serra took the lead on the thang of all
thangs amid a five-run comeback rally in the
bottom of the fourth. After Bortolins two-run
double, Thomas McCarthy reached on a
groundball fielders choice, with Bortolin getting thrown out at third for the second out of
the inning. But Nick Kncecht followed with a
walk. Then with runners on first and second,
junior Jack Mori hit a towering Texas Leaguer

It never gets easier, Pavelski said.
These teams are all good right now, good
goalies. It feels good, but we understand this
was a second step. It feels good, but we have
to keep going.
The Predators most successful season
ended in bitter disappointment as they were
unable to repeat their Game 7 road win in the
first round against Anaheim to make the conference final for the first time.
Defensive miscues by Nashvilles two top
defensemen, captain Shea Weber and Roman
Josi, led to early San Jose goals as Pekka

The Predators had just eight shots on goal
in the first two periods and Rinne left after

Thursday. We got to experience so many

cool things. Its just amazing the people you
get to meet because of a great race horse.

Every race, you pinch yourself and realize

how privileged you are to be around and to be
part of such a great horse, ONeill said.

Now, as he readies Nyquist for the

Preakness, ONeill looks to complete another memorable visit to Pimlico Race Course.

Besides his voice, the only sounds within

earshot were birds chirping and water splashing off a horse being given a bath outside the
Stakes Barn.

This is great. We love being early to settle

in and have the track to ourselves, pretty
much it seems like, ONeill said. Not having a lot of traffic, you can kind of pick your
own lane.

That is exactly how ONeill likes it. He

brought Ill Have Another to Baltimore soon
after the Kentucky Derby and well before the
other contenders arrived. The strategy paid

in back of third base. The ball seemed destined

to slice foul, but with both the shortstop and
third baseman in pursuit, the ball curled fair at
the last second to fall for an RBI single, scoring McCarthy from second with the go-ahead
run.
After Serra extended its lead to 5-2, St.
Francis looked to mount a comeback in the
top of the fifth. But Serra second baseman
Kyle Roux seized any and all momentum with
a spellbinding catch on a towering popup in
back of first base.
St. Francis set the table when cleanup hitter
Johnny Mendoza got hit by a pitch with one
out. And when Andrew Martinez followed with
the popup back of first, St. Francis had
notions of bringing the potential tying run to
the plate. But Roux would have none of that,
streaking across the outfield grass to make a
highlight-reel diving catch as he tumbled into
foul territory.
Rouxs catch is huge, Apecechea said.
Its dark here tonight. And the ball is going
up in the dark and all of a sudden it pops up in
the lights. Its really hard to see. So just him

trusting himself giving all his effort is huge.

The catch put the wind in the sails of
Apecechea to go the distance. No St. Francis
batters reached base from there as the senior
set down the last eight batters he faced. He
worked seven innings to earn the win, allowing just four hits.
Its just an outstanding performance by a
great baseball team tonight, Gianinno said,
who showed a lot of resilience, led by No. 10
on the mound, Chris Apecechea. We started
way back in September talking about our
goals ... and the group of seniors that have led
this whole team throughout the year has been
a special group with a ton of belief in each
other. But it was a result of the work put into
this thing and continued to grind day in and
day out. So, its a special night for these
guys.
The only offense St. Francis mustered came
in the third inning. No. 9 hitter Kyle Joye and
Jeremy Ydens led off the frame with back-toback singles, each on the first pitch of the atbat. Then Ricky Martinez moved them both
over with a picture-perfect sacrifice bunt. With

two outs, Apecechea loaded the bases with two

outs. And he nearly escaped, but St. Francis
caught a break when a sharp shot off the bat of
Andrew Martinez ate up Bortolin at third base
and skipped through to the outfield, scoring
two runs to give the Lancers a 2-0 lead.

early in the third period. The frustration

boiled over as he slammed his stick against
the post and tossed it aside after Marleaus
goal made it 5-0. Carter Hutton replaced
Rinne in goal and made one save.
That was childish and not the way you
want to end the season, Rinne said. I wish
I hadnt have done that. Yeah, it was frustration. Thats the end of that stick.
Nashville remains one of three franchises,
along with Columbus and the current
Winnipeg franchise, to never make it to a
conference final.
The Sharks got there in 2004, 2010 and
2011 only to lose each time as a long run
of regular-season success behind stars such
as Thornton and Marleau has not yet led to
the ultimate postseason goal.
The 2014 collapse set the franchise back
and led to Thornton losing his captaincy
amid several other changes the past two
years. But with only 10 players remaining

from that disappointment and a new coach in

Peter DeBoer, the Sharks believed this team
was different and are showing that through
two rounds of the playoffs.
The core guys are still the same, but the
core guys here are great, DeBoer said. They
have great habits, theyve been well coached
for a decade by the previous staff that was
here. Theyre not the problem. It was filling
in behind them. Weve got those type of people here now, and I think the guys at the top
feel that and are feeding off it.
The Sharks came out fast from the drop and
completely dominated the opening period,
outshooting Nashville 17-3 to take a 2-0
lead.
San Joses potent top power-play unit
made Nashville pay for a delay of game
penalty on Game 6 overtime hero Viktor
Arvidsson when Marleau set up Pavelski with
a pass from behind the net for a one-timer to
open the scoring. It was Pavelskis ninth

goal this postseason, tying the franchise

record he and Marleau already held.
The Predators came close to scoring on one
flurry in front of Jones net, but the Sharks
ended up adding to the lead when Josi misplayed a puck at the blue line, sending Ward
in on a breakaway that made it 2-0.
The break between periods did little to
slow the Sharks as they scored in the opening minute of the second period when Weber
turned a puck over right to Couture in the
defensive zone. Couture skated in and beat
Rinne to make it 3-0 and the rout was on.
They were the better team tonight, Weber
said. We couldnt get anything going. It was
tough. They deserved it.
NOTES: Josi and Weber were on the ice for
all five San Jose goals. ... Coutures 11
points in the series breaks the franchise
record of 10 set by Igor Larionov in San
Joses first series ever in 1994 against
Detroit.

Derby this month and a hat announcing the

after tending to his undefeated Kentucky
Derby winner.

off, and ONeill sees no reason to do anything

differently.

The error weighed on Bortolin only briefly

though, as he redeemed himself at the plate the
following inning.
That was pretty bad so I had to make it up
later, Bortolin said. But I thought the team
picked me up and we got the win.
Apecechea is no stranger to big stages.
Thursdays game marks the second time he has
pitched at Schott Stadium. He also threw there
in the WCAL tourney last year. He even took
the mound at USF two weeks ago when Serra
played there against Sacred Heart Cathedral.
But neither of those games came against
archrival St. Francis.
This is just a surreal feeling against our
rivals, Apecechea said. Everyones here. So,
its just a great feeling for us.

Olympic visitors advised

to stay away from certain
areas to avoid Zika virus

Olympics should avoid poor and

be spread sexually, pregnant
women should abstain from sex or
practice safe sex with anyone who
has recently returned from areas
with outbreaks.
WHO declared the explosive
spread of Zika in the Americas to
be a global emergency in February

to cause a range of severe birth

supervises games.

Its good to see that WHO has

broken its silence on this question, said Suerie Moon, a
research director at Harvard
Universitys School of Public
Health. She said the recommendations would carry more weight had
WHO convened its independent
group of experts to consider the
issue of whether the Olympics
should be moved or postponed.
WHO spokesman Christian
Lindmeier said it was possible the
agency might hold a meeting of
its Zika experts in the coming
weeks, but such a gathering would
probably not specifically address
the Olympics.
Lindmeier said WHOs advice
might evolve if there is new information to consider.
WHO said that because the
Olympics will take place during
Brazils winter, there will be fewer
mosquitoes and the risk of being
bitten will be lower.
Attaran pointed out that cases of
dengue spread by the same mosquitoes that spread Zika have
jumped sixfold this year despite
Brazils aggressive efforts to wipe
out the insects, adding there is no
evidence Zika transmission will
disappear by the time the games
start in August.
The 21-year-old part-time referee
and waiter said Thursday he feels he
has no support from the local soccer
organization that pays him.
Rafael Jimenez, a spokesman for
the Andalusian Football Federation,
said they fully support Tomillero
and want him to keep refereeing, but
Tomillero says nobody from the
association has contacted him.

Baseball pioneer gets
long-overdue gravestone
NEW YORK A baseball pioneer who has rested in an unmarked
grave since he died in 1899 will
finally get the recognition he
craved when a cemetery unveils his
gravestone.
The home-plate-shaped monument honoring James Whyte
Davis will be unveiled at GreenWood Cemetery in Brooklyn on
Saturday.
Davis started playing baseball
in the 1840s at the dawn of the
game and was president of the
Knickerbocker Base Ball Club of
New York City, one of the earliest
baseball teams, from 1858 to
1860.
According to the Society for
American Baseball Research, he
played a role in some of the most
seminal moments in baseball history, serving as a delegate to the
1867 convention of the National
Association of Amateur Base Ball
Players.
In 1892, Davis put out a request
for every active baseball player to
chip in 10 cents for his grave
marker, historians said.
That did not go anywhere
because it was already almost 50
years since his start with the
Knickerbockers, Green-Wood
historian Jeff Richman said.
But thanks to the Society for
American Baseball Research and
Major League Baseball, Davis is
finally getting the gravestone he

wanted, complete with the epitaph

he wrote.
The epitaph refers to Davis as
Too Late, a nickname he apparently earned because he often was late
to his own games.

CAP
Continued from page 11
Heart Prep 4 p.m. at Half Moon Bay.
The Gators beat second-seeded
Carlmont 4-3 in the other semifinal
game.
Both teams got off to quick starts,
with each team scoring in the first
inning. Katout gave up a leadoff double to Woodsides Joe Arsan to start
the game, walked Tim Goode and then
gave up an RBI single to Jamie
Kruger.
After that, Katout and the
Capuchino defense took over.
Katout did not allow another hit
until an Arsan single to lead off the
top of the sixth. Between those hits,
the Mustangs turned three double
plays and Katout struck out five and
allowed only two other base runners:
Evan McDonough, who walked to
lead off the top of the third, and
Scudder Stockwell, who reached on an
error in the fifth.
[Katout] always has that one (bad)
inning, Wilson said. But hes a
tough kid and he has the willpower to
fight through.
Katouts counterpart, McDonough,
was nearly as effective. Although he
gave up three runs and six hits in the
first three innings, he allowed only
one more hit and an unearned run over
his final three innings of work.
[McDonough] pitched great, said
Woodside manager Tim Faulkner. He
clinched it (the Ocean Division title)
on Saturday and he comes back today
and pitches like this. I couldnt be
happier with the way he threw.

It appeared the Wildcats would

make it a short outing for Katout as
Woodside already had a 1-0 lead three
batters into the game.
But a strikeout and a 1-6-3 double
play got Katout out of the jam.
And the Mustangs deficit was
short-lived as they came back with a
two-spot in the bottom of the inning
and never trailed again.
With two outs, Ramon Enriquez
singled to center and stole second. He
came around to score on Jacob
Uriartes double to the fence in left
field. With Matt OMahony at the
plate, Uriarte moved to third on a wild
pitch. OMahony would end up drawing a walk, but ball four got past the
catcher and Uriarte scored on the wild
pitch to give Capuchino a 2-1 lead.
Its always big to get runs in the
beginning. It sets the tone, Wilson
said. And they did it all with two
outs.
The Mustangs increased their lead
to 3-1 with a run in the bottom of the
third. Enriquez led off the inning with
a booming double to the base of the
fence in left field. Following a
groundout, OMahony singled, with
Enriquez moving and holding at third.
Dylan Arsenault followed and sliced a
single down the left-field line that
landed just fair and plated Enriquez.
In the fifth, the Mustangs tacked on
what turned out to be the game-winning run. Trey Zahursky led off the
inning with a single to center and
stole second. He went to third on
Uriartes groundout but, after
Zahursky made a wide turn at third, the
Woodside first baseman fired the ball
across the diamond, hoping to backdoor Zahursky.

The throw to third was high, however, enabling Zahursky to trot home
with the fourth run of the game for the
Mustangs.
Turns out, they needed it. In the top
of the sixth, Woodside finally found
some
offense.
Arsan singled to lead off the inning
and Goode walked. Kruger came up
and hit a high pop fly that fell
between the shortstop, left and center
fielder for what appeared to be a windblown bloop single.
The runners were forced to hold and,
when the ball landed, Arsan hustled
toward third. The throw was in the dirt
and got away from the third baseman
and went out of play, enabling Arsan
to score and Goode to move to third.
Kruger, who was standing on second, was suddenly called out because
the umpire said the infield-fly rule was
in effect.
Matt Hennefarth followed and hit a
routine popup into shallow right field
that was dropped, which allowed
Goode to score.
That ended the day for Katout and
Wilson went to the side-arm throwing
Uriarte to snuff out the threat.
Three pitches later, Uriarte induced
a 5-4-3 double play to get out of the
jam. He then pitched a 1-2-3 inning
to earn the save.
Despite seeing his teams 12-game
winning streak come to an end,
Faulkner likes his teams chances
going forward into the Central Coast
Section tournament.
Wed have liked to play (in the
PAL championship game), but I feel
great about where we are going into
next week, he said. Im very happy
with how were playing.

the serious crisis in
which we find ourselves.
The Senate voted 5522 to impeach Rousseff
over allegations her
government broke fiscal
Michel Temer laws in managing the
federal budget. Rousseff
insisted the accusations are baseless, since
such financial maneuvers have been common practice by other Brazilian presidents
without repercussions.
She was immediately suspended for 180
days pending a trial in the Senate. If she is
found by two-thirds of the Senate to have
committed crimes, Temer will serve out the
remainder of her term, which ends in
December 2018.
Rousseff maintained the action against
her amounts to a coup cooked up by
power-hungry opponents bent on rolling
back the clock on government social programs that wrenched an estimated 35 million Brazilians out of poverty during the 13
years in power by her left-leaning Workers
Party.

Navy officer fired over
Irans detention of 10 sailors
WASHINGTON The Navy has fired the
commander of the 10 American sailors who
wandered into Iranian territorial waters in
the Persian Gulf and were captured and held
by Iran for about 15 hours.
In a statement Thursday, the Navy said it
had lost confidence in Cmdr. Eric Rasch,
who was the executive officer of the
squadron that included the 10 sailors at the
time of the January incident. He was responsible for the training and readiness of the
more than 400 sailors in the unit.
A Navy official said Rasch failed to provide effective leadership, leading to a lack
of oversight, complacency and failure to
maintain standards in the unit. The official
was not authorized to discuss the details
publicly so spoke on condition of
anonymity.

Though no final decision is set to be
made at the upcoming meeting, councilmembers will discuss the merits of the
final two overpass alignments one in
which the rail tracks are raised and a road is
slightly lowered so traffic could pass below
the bridge, and an inverse positioning.
As part of the substantial public outreach
process leading toward selecting favored
alignment, residents and officials agreed
four of the six projects initially proposed
were not feasible.
Officials had previously expressed the

lowering the road, as that is the most common arrangement of other grade separations spanning the Peninsula.

a clear recognition by the rail authorities
that this at-grade crossing is in need of a
grade separation, said the report.
Traffic is worsened by the gates dropping
along the railroad crossing, which has also
been the cause of a variety of car and train
crashes, according to the report.
Delays can last as long as five minutes
during peak traffic hours and, without a
grade separation, waits could grow to being
nearly 30 minutes or longer, according to
the report.
Beyond the need to improve traffic flow,
the project is necessary to make
Burlingame a safer community, according
to the report.
The traffic congestion and delays today
already pose an emergency response challenge and would result in impossible conditions in the future for first responders,
emergency services and for the general public if the problem is not addressed, said the
report.

vate deeply enough to accommodate a railway is limited by the elevation of the water
table.
At a recent town hall meeting addressing
the issue, an overwhelming majority of
the feedback provided by residents had
identified the raised track alignment as the
ideal project as well, according to a city
report.
During the Monday meeting, councilmembers will review the two final proposals and offer city officials perspective
which will ultimately influence a selection.
Selecting a preferred alignment will put
the officials in a stronger bargaining position when seeking grant funding to finance
the project, according to a city report.
A funding source for the project has yet to
be identified, and though city officials are
typically responsible for taking the lead on
financing grade separations, a variety of
local, state and federal funding sources are
available as well.
The San Mateo County Transportation
Authority is an agency which Burlingame
officials may look to for assistance in
financing the project, Caltrain spokeswoman Tasha Bartholomew said, but the

regional agency maintains a relatively

small pool of resources to offer and a variety of other communities along the
Peninsula are vying for the funding too.
The Transportation Authority has granted
$1 million to Burlingame in 2013 for study
of the project.
Congestion at the Broadway intersection
is some of the worst in the city and region,
according to the report, as more than
70,000 vehicles pass daily through the
area.
The Safety and Enforcement Division of
the California Public Utilities Commission
Office of Rail Safety identified the
Broadway project as the second most necessary grade separations of 10,000 candidates
throughout California. It was also named
the top priority in Northern California.
The confirmed ranking of the Broadway
railroad crossing as the second highest priority in the state demonstrates that there is

employment records.
The colleges newspaper, the American
Current, profiled Winchester in 2014 noting he previously spent time with the U.S.
Marine Corps before joining the Los Rios
Police Department. He reportedly made
more than $88,200 in benefits and pay
while employed by the college district in
2014, according to state records.
Burlingame police reportedly notified

Recreation Area, sparking an investigat i o n t h at h as l ed t o p o t en t i al l y fo ur
other victims on the Peninsula and in
Sacramento County.
Wagstaffe said police quickly contacted
his office as soon as they were notified.
We agreed to conduct the lengthy investigation for criminal conduct while on

duty, involving women, Wagstaffe said,

noting it is ongoing and expected his
office wouldnt decide whether to file
charges until June.
Neither police nor Wagstaffe would
release many details, noting the investigation was made public before a determination had been made about the allegations or whether criminal charges would
be filed.
No one could immediately confirm where
Winchester is currently residing, though
online records show he previously lived in
Sacramento.
San Mateo police are fully cooperating
with the investigation and has begun an
internal, parallel personnel investigation, according to Manheimer, who
expressed concerned about retaining the
publics trust in her department.
If these allegations are proven true,
these acts will tarnish the community
partnerships that our officers have worked

so hard and long to build and preserve,

she wrote.
Manheimer wrote the letter to the community and, in another statement, noted
the department refrained from going public with the case so as to preserve the
investigation, but that the allegations had
been leaked to the media and cautions the
public to wait for the district attorneys
announcement of the findings.
Although the DAs criminal investigation is not yet completed, we as an organization recognize that the thought of
someone committing criminal acts while
wearing an SMPD uniform is deeply troubling and repulsive to this department and
its members, Manheimer wrote. This
alleged conduct in no way reflects the core
values of this department, our personnel,
or our profession as a whole. The alleged
conduct, if true, is deeply troubling and
more importantly, a disturbing breach of
the public trust.

improves, so does the quality of life for

those the program will serve, Kaplan said.
On Tuesday, the San Mateo County Board
of Supervisors approved $5 million in
loans to five nonprofit agencies the county
contracts with to provide drug and alcohol
treatment.
The emergency loans were given due to
spiraling real estate costs.
Under the terms of the loans, the organizations will pay no interest and no debt

service as long as they continue to provide

treatment services, with the loans forgiven
in 30 years.
The countys largest contract for substance abuse treatment currently is with
Project Ninety at $2.7 million. The agency
has contracted with the county for more
than 30 years to provide services to adult
men who may be homeless, straight from
prison or jail, unemployed or have limited

Lobster skewers marriage

By Jake Coyle

Farrell explores relationship

dystopia in his new movie
By Lindsey Bahr
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LOS ANGELES In the world of The

Lobster, being single is not only looked
down on, its forbidden by law.
Our entry into this dystopian setting is
David (Colin Farrell). His wife has just left
him and he must sequester himself in
strange hotel filled with other single people in hopes of finding a suitable mate. If

he doesnt pair up with someone in 45 days,

though, hell be turned into an animal.
Its already happened to his brother, who
arrives at the hotel with David in the form
of a dog. David, however, doesnt want to
be mans best friend. Hes decided that hed
rather be a lobster, which the hotel manager (Olivia Colman) says is an excellent
choice.

See FARRELL, Page 23

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Does anything break through the glum

satire and unremitting deadpan that cover
The Lobster like the gray Irish skies that
hover over it?
Greek director Yorgos Lanthimos first
English-language film begins with a distraught woman driving through the rain.
She gets out on a remote plain, walks up to
a donkey and shoots it right in the face. Its
a brutal announcement of the absurdity to
come. This is a film for neither lovers nor
animal lovers.
In The Lobster, a Saturday Night Live
sketch carried out with the severity of
Antonioni, singlehood is outlawed. The

lonely and divorced are rounded up in white

vans and brought to a country resort where
they have 45 days to meet a mate or they
will then be turned into an animal of their
choosing.
The questions at check-in go like this:
Have you ever been on your own before?
Are you allergic to any foods? Rules
include that volleyball and tennis courts are
reserved for couples only, and that crossbreeding species a wolf and a penguin, a
camel and a hippo isnt allowed. That
would be absurd, says the hotel manager
(Olivia Colman).
The style here is at once gleefully
bonkers and grimly banal. Though The

When the Rain Stops Falling

challenges Dragon audiences
By Judy Richter
DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT

Trying to figure out whats happening in When the Rain Stops Falling
is a bit like trying to put a jigsaw puzzle together when theres no picture to
guide you.
Presented by Dragon Theatre, this
2008 drama by Andrew Bovell spans
four generations from 1959 to 2039
and shifts between London and
Australia.
The seven-member cast is skillfully
directed by Kimberly Mohne Hill.
Some characters are seen as their
younger and older selves. Two actors
portray two characters.
Act 1 is especially difficult to track,
but by Act 2, things come into focus.
One can see how events in the past
affect later ones.
In some scenes, mainly in Act 2,
KIMBERLEE WITTLIEB older characters observe their younger
Felix Abidor stars as Gabriel Law in When the Rain Stops selves in pivotal, usually painful
events.
Falling.

The ensemble cast features Felix

Abidor as Gabriel, a young man who
goes to Australia to discover what happened to his long-gone father. Maria
Giere
Marquis
plays
Younger
Gabrielle, the Australian woman with
whom he falls in love, while Sheila
Ellam plays Older Gabrielle.
John Baldwin plays Joe Ryan, who
becomes Gabrielles husband. Judith
Miller plays Older Elizabeth, mother
of Gabriel, while Lauren Hayes plays
Younger Elizabeth.
Evan Sokol plays Henry Law,
Gabriels father, as well as Gabriel
York, Gabriels son with an adult son
of his own.
See its complicated. A family tree
in the program sheds some light, as
does the directors note. In a general
sense, this is the story of sons seeking
to know more about their fathers.
The title refers to a prediction by
Henry Law in 1959. He said that fish
will fall from the sky, heralding a great
flood which will end life on Earth as we
know it, according to a press release.

Thus the play opens with a red fish

falling to the feet of Gabriel York, so
he decides to make fish soup for a
lunch with his long-estranged son.
Fish soup seems to be the main
course for the preceding generations,
including those who occupy what
appears to be the same dingy London
flat over the years. There are other
common threads, too, such as abandonment and death.
The single set by Daniel Stahlnecker
keeps things simple. Scenic projections of the location and date help,
too.
Its not easy to take it all in on first
viewing. Seeing it a second time
might provide more clarity. In the
meantime, the play and this production command ones attention. It runs
abut two hours with one intermission.
When the Rain Stops Falling will
run through May 28 at Dragon Theatre,
2120 Broadway, Redwood City. For
tickets and information call (650)

Questions linger about Princes choice of local doctor

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MINNEAPOLIS If Prince was

seeking help for a problem with prescription drugs, it would make sense
for him to turn to a California addiction specialist known for new ideas on
treatment. Less clear is why he sought
care from a local family care physician
with an unassuming resume who met
with Prince twice in the weeks before
his death and prescribed him unknown
medications.

The day Prince

died, he was scheduled to meet with the
son of Dr. Howard
Kornfeld,
the
California specialist in addiction
treatment and pain
management. But in
the weeks before
Prince
Princes April 21
death, he met twice with Dr. Michael
Todd Schulenberg, who worked at a

Minnetonka clinic a few miles from

Princes Paisley Park studio and home,
according to search warrant documents
released Tuesday.
Princes cause of death is still
unknown, as the autopsy results
havent been released. But a law
enforcement official has told the
Associated Press that investigators are
looking into whether he died from an
overdose and whether a doctor was prescribing him drugs in the weeks before
his death.

FARRELL
Continued from page 19
The Lobster, out Friday, is the first
English-language film from Greek director Yorgos Lanthimos, best known for
the dark satire Dogtooth. That breakout, which earned a best foreign language Oscar nomination in 2011, made
Lanthimos somewhat of a cult figure
among cinephiles and actors alike. Its
why stars like Farrell, Rachel Weisz and
John C. Reilly were so eager to get on
board with his absurdist, deadpan vision
for The Lobster.
Reilly said Lanthimos stylish blend
of formality and stillness with an underlying wicked, cruel humor is the closest
hes ever seen to a Stanley Kubrick.
Farrell, too, recalls how Dogtooth
stayed with him long after he saw the
film.
I was so provoked and agitated by it
and kind of sickened by it and moved by
it, Farrell said. (Yorgos) has a very
specific eye and a very specific perspective on life and love and family and
community and grief and all these big
things that we have been using art and
theater and song to try to uncover hidden meaning in.
Farrell even packed on some weight
for the film to more fully disappear into
the character and world.
(Colin) was a little bit too good
looking and seemed like the winner in a
film, Lanthimos explained. The two
agreed that David was probably a bit of
an eater who had grown soft in the
coziness of marriage.
The hotel that David finds himself living in is both a resort and a prison.

LOBSTER
Continued from page 19
Lobster has been called a dystopia,
there are no fantastical elements
besides its extreme conceit, a savage
parody of our coupling obsession.
At the hotel, people pair off based
on only the most superficial commonalities like robotic Tinder users. John
C. Reilly is identified only as the
Lisping Man; Ben Wishaw as the
Limping Man. They seek others with
the same characteristic. When the
Limping Man meets a woman who suffers from nosebleeds, he takes to
smacking his head against tables.
Successful couples speak of vacations together the ultimate prize for
a happy couple with awe-inspiring pride. In between awkward
courtships and punitive tactics (masturbation is punished by putting the
perpetrators hand in a toaster) are
hunting excursions into the woods to
shoot loners.

Friday May 13, 2016

23

There are pools and hot tubs and idyllic

views, but also strict rules and mandatory activities that can be as innocuous as
a dance, or as violent as a hunt. And
theyre not just hunting animals;
theyre hunting loners a group of singles who have voluntarily exiled themselves from society.
The quest for a mate in this environment is similarly askew and comically
specific. Each resident is looking for
another person who shares a defining trait with them, like a limp
(Ben Whishaw), a lisp (Reilly),
or even chronic nosebleeds
(Jessica Barden).
It speaks to a certain kind of
superficiality in how we judge
how and when were able to
approach someone in trying to
start some kind of relationship,
Lanthimos said. Weve made this
world that has very strict and particular
rules in order to create something that
feels very much like our world but is
slightly removed from it at the same
time so we can reveal a lot of the
absurdities of our everyday
lives.
The absurdities only
escalate as we delve
deeper into the realm
outside of the hotel,
where we encounter
the loners and their
deathly serious leader
(La Seydoux), who
has gone to extremes
to deter any romantic
relationships at all
among her followers.
The film is cynical
and dark shockingly so at times

but all agree that Lanthimos doesnt,

ultimately, try to force a specific point
of view. Theres even some possible
hope that can be gleaned from Davids
encounters with Weiszs character,
Short Sighted Woman.
People should recognize themselves in it. Its about our behaviors
and how much compromise we do in
order to fit somewhere or to feel like
we belong to something
somewhere,
says
Ariane Labed, who
plays The Maid, and
is also married to
Lanthimos.
I think it says a
lot about the way
you see love or
how much you
believe in it. The
end is quite open.
You can make
whatever
you
want out of
it

David (Colin Farrell) is brought to

the hotel after his wife leaves him.
Lanthimos has drained away almost all
of Farrells charisma (hes here a little
heavier, with glasses and a mustache)
leaving just his fragility. Should he
fail, he chooses a lobster, he explains,
because they will live over 100 years,
are blue-blooded like aristocrats and
stay fertile all their lives. I also like
the sea very much, he says.
If all of this didnt yet sound strange
enough, theres also an arch, literary
narration (Rachel Weisz, who turns up
later) and heavy jabs of Beethoven and
Shostakovich throughout. When
David finds a band of rebel loners hiding out in the woods, they turn out to
be no less militaristic.
In The Lobster, Lanthimos brings
his unique blend of macabre and satire
to love and marriage, just as he did to
family in the Oscar-nominated
Dogtooth and to death in Alps. In
the latter, a business employees
impersonate the dead to aid mourners
in their grief.
His commitment to his high-concept tragicomedies is extraordinary. A

large part of the entertainment of The

Lobster comes from marveling at a
director having the audacity to stretch
such absurdity so far until, well,
theres Colin Farrell kicking a child.
The ideas are built into the impersonal
filmmaking, too; the characters are
intentionally detached and speak
monotonously automatons in a
rigid system of courtship.
There is, though, a feeling of a thesis being laid out, a joke (albeit an
astute and meaningful one) stretched
too long, with no deeper level to be
found, just a series of heavy-handed
shocks. The final scene scratches at
something that these characters are
capable of love but theyre too trapped
in its social conventions to find it.
Still, perhaps Chris Rock said it better and more succinctly: You can be
married and bored or single and lonely.
Aint no happiness nowhere.
The Lobster, an A24 release, is
rated R by the Motion Picture
Association of America for sexual
content including dialogue, and some
violence. Running time: 118 minutes. Two and a half stars out of four.

ANSWERS

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Dont let your emotions
cause problems. An impulsive move will result in
regret, especially if it has to do with making a personal
change. Make romance a priority.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Listen to what others
are saying, assess their words and refrain from
sharing personal information. A false sense of
security will take you in a precarious direction.
Avoid temptation and excess. Keep the peace, but
dont fold under pressure.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) Let your intuition guide
you. An unusual position will have more to offer than

you realize. Consider making a change based on the

information that someone trustworthy offers.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You may yearn for change,
but consider who will be affected by the choices you
make. Get approval from those you love rst. Sharing
your plan will alleviate doubt.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Dont let domestic
problems cloud your vision. Look at the end result, not
at what it takes to get there, and base your next move
on whats best for you. Romance is highlighted.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) Personal investments
are favored. Draw up agreements and get any
documentation in place. Preparation will make the
difference when you are ready to take action.

involved in group efforts or doing things with friends, a
loved one or children will encourage positive change.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) Stick close to
home and avoid people who propose unrealistic
schemes. Problems while traveling or dealing with
institutions will be costly. Learn from past mistakes
and focus on your best interest.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Take the initiative
and get your plans up and running. Share your
thoughts and let the people you care about know how
you feel. Romance will improve your life.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) Dont be too quick to
agree to something that doesnt suit your needs. You
may have to go it alone in order to get what you want.

Dont fold under pressure.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) Take another look at
old ideas and plans that you never developed. Refuse
to let the demands of others stop you from doing what
you need to do. Follow your heart.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) Its up to you to bring
about change. Dont wait for others to make the rst
move. Getting involved in the action and showing what
you have to offer will turn heads.

Pope willing to study whether women can be deacons

By Nicole Winfield
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

VATICAN CITY Pope Francis said

Thursday he is willing to create a commission to study whether women can be deacons in the Catholic Church, signaling
openness to letting women serve in
ordained ministry currently reserved to
men.
Francis agreed to a proposal to create an
official study commission during a closeddoor meeting with some 900 superiors of
womens religious orders in Rome for their
triennial assembly.
Deacons are ordained ministers but are
not priests, though they can perform many
of the same functions as priests: preside at
weddings, baptisms and funerals, and
preach. They cannot, however, celebrate
Mass.
Currently, married men who are also
mostly excluded from the Roman Catholic
priesthood can serve as deacons.
Women cannot, though historians say
women served as deacons in the early
Church.
The pope in no way signaled during a 75minute conversation with the sisters that
the churchs longstanding prohibition on
women priests will change. But asked if he
would be willing to create a commission to
study whether women could serve as deacons, Francis said he was open to the idea,
according to the National Catholic
Reporter and Catholic News Service,
which had reporters in the audience hall.
The publications quoted Francis as say-

night to get an update on a draft of the
Inner Harbor Specific Plan and environmental documents related to the
plan.
The council also got an update on a
1. 2-million-square-foot office complex called Harbor View Place at the
sites of the former Malibu Grand Prix
and Lyngso properties.
Watt Communities, however, will
have to resubmit its plans since it
has been notified that the nearby
Maple Street Shelter for women will
remain at its current location near
the new county jail east of Highway
101.
The
controversial
Docktown
Marina, which technically is in violation of the states public trust,
should not impact the developers
plans, according to a report by
Planning Manager Steven Turner.
The city and Docktown residents
are working on a legislative solution
that should keep the marina in place

ing: I accept. It would be useful for the
church to clarify this question. I agree.
Vatican Radio also reported on the
popes comments.
Francis noted that the deaconesses of the
early church werent ordained as they are
today. But he said he would ask the
Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith
to report back on studies that have been
done on the issue, Catholic News Service
said.

for another 15 years.

The Jay Paul Company proposes to
build four nine-story buildings and
three parking structures with more
than 4,000 parking spaces within the
specific plan area that technically
does not conform with the plan as
written now.
The City Council would have to
amend the plan or have staff modify it
before it is approved to accommodate
the office project proposal.
Building heights in the area could
reach up to 131 feet.
Within the plan area, there are three
private property parcels where new
construction could take place including the Docktown property and east
of the new county jail where Malibu
Grand Prix previously existed.
The third site is the Ferrari property near the Graniterock facility,
which is considered the best spot for
a floating home community in the
future, according to Turners report.
Up to eight units of housing per
acre is allowed at the Ferrari property
at a maximum of 30 feet tall.
The citys plans for the 100 acres
of land east of Highway 101 call for
adding 1. 2 million square feet of

Francis also said he would ask another

Vatican office that is in charge of the liturgy to explain more fully why women arent
allowed to give a homily at Mass. Women
can only preach at services where people
do not receive communion.
The Womens Ordination Conference,
which advocates for women priests,
praised Francis willingness to create a
study commission as a great step for the
Vatican in recognizing its own history.

offices and 4,880 new jobs at Harbor

View Place.
The plan calls for adding 1,211 residents in 550 new housing units.
The plan also includes improved
connections in and out of the harbor
area.
The guiding principles for the specific plan include that the Inner
Harbor accommodate a mix of habitat, recreational, educational, residential and commercial uses.
Developers will also be required to
provide community benefits such as
affordable housing, docks and trails
on site or within the Inner Harbor,
according to the specific plans guiding principles.
Many residents of Docktown sat on
the Inner Harbor Task Force that
helped develop the specific plan.
The area is accessed by Maple and
Blomquist streets.
The Inner Harbor was and to a
lesser extent, still is dominated by
industrial businesses. Vacancies left
by the closing of Malibu and the relocation of both Hayward Lumber and
Lyngso Garden Materials, however,
leaves a good deal of the area open
and ripe for development.

Biblical evidence names several women

deacons, working alongside men in the
early Church including: Phoebe, St.
Olympias, Dionysia, St. Radegund and St.
Macrina, the group said in a statement.
The Rev. James Martin, a Jesuit author,
said reviving women deacons would benefit the whole church.
The female diaconate is not only an idea
whose time has come, but a reality recovered from history, he said in an email.
This is news of immense joy for the
church.
From the start of his pontificate, Francis
has insisted that women must have a
greater decision-making role in the life of
the church, while reaffirming that they
cannot be priests. He has said repeatedly
that he values the feminine genius, that
theres no reason why a woman couldnt
head certain Vatican offices and that the
church hierarchy would do well to hear
more from women because they simply see
things differently to men.
But historys first Latin American pope
has also hit a few sour notes with women,
calling Europe an infertile grandmother,
urging nuns not to be old maids and once
terming new female members of the
worlds leading theological commission as
strawberries on the cake.
On Thursday, he drew round after round of
applause as he spoke freely with the sisters, asking them to challenge him and
lamenting how so often nuns find themselves working as servants for priests,
bishops and cardinals in ways that undervalue their dignity.

Around the world

French prosecutors probe
$2 million tied to 2020 Tokyo Games
PARIS A shell company in Singapore is increasingly
emerging at the heart of what French prosecutors believe
was an organized web of corruption in sports, with their suspicions now extending to Tokyos winning bid for the 2020
Olympics.
In the months immediately before and after the 2013
Olympic vote, 2.8 million Singapore dollars ($2 million) is
thought to have been transferred in two segments from a
bank in Japan to the account in Singapore of a company
called Black Tidings, French prosecutors said Thursday. The
transactions were marked Tokyo 2020 Olympic Game Bid.
Black Tidings is quickly earning a dubious reputation. Its
account also was used to transfer funds in the cover-up of a
Russian doping case, according to a World Anti-Doping
Agency investigation. And the sports marketing consultant
identified by WADA as the account holder has been closely
tied to the family that ruled track and field for 16 years via
the now-disgraced Lamine Diack.
