Shuttles aim to ease commute

Supervisors set to approve $2 million contract for county worker transportation
By Bill Silverfarb
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Many of San Mateo Countys

roughly 5, 000 employees will
now have the option to shuttle to
work on the countys dime,
depending on board approval.
Supervisors
will
consider
Tuesday whether to approve a $2.1
million contract with San

Francisco-based Transmetro, Inc.

to provide comprehensive commuter bus services starting July 12
and lasting through Aug. 31,
2017.
The shuttles will serve the
County Center in downtown
Redwood City, the San Mateo
Medical Center in San Mateo and
county offices on Alameda de las
Pulgas in San Mateo.

They will connect to regional

transportation hubs in Colma,
Milpitas and Hayward.
With increased congestion on
the highways, parking around the
County Center and hospital has
become increasingly difficult,
according to a staff report by Jim
Eggemeyer, director of the Office
of Sustainability.
The aim is to reduce traffic con-

gestion, reduce greenhouse gas

emissions and reduce the demand
for parking at core county facilities at the benefit of employees.
The idea was brought forward by
county employees at an innovation summit this year.
The agreement requires that
Transmetro conduct a Mystery
Rider Program to identify any
violations of county and company

policies. Once a month on each

bus route, a company employee
must ride the bus without the drivers knowledge and then report
back their findings.
Rider surveys are also required to
better understand concerns and to
solicit feedback to improve service
quality,

Town to expand outdoors head to college early
BILL SILVERFARB/DAILY JOUNRAL

Town in San Carlos is set to expand its outdoor dining area into three parking stalls on Laurel Street.

San Carlos restaurant to feature on-street dining

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT

Outdoor dining is coming to San

Carlos under a pilot program that
will start at Town on Laurel Street.
The Planning Commission
approved the request by Town
owner Greg St. Claire at its meeting last week.
Three parking spaces in front of
the restaurant at 716 Laurel St. will
be turned into a dining area with a
platform so that the sidewalk and
outdoor dining area will be at the
same level.
The City Council approved the

pilot program almost a year ago

that allows for up to two restaurants on the 600, 700 and 800
blocks of Laurel Street.
Two other restaurants on Laurel
Street also sought to expand outdoors but only Town will have al
fresco dining for now.
St. Claire also owns Nola in
Palo Alto and Milagros in
Redwood City.
Outdoor dining has helped to
revitalize downtown Redwood
City, St. Claire said Tuesday night
according to a video of the meeting.

Milagros has a large outdoor

patio and adds $3 million in sales
to the restaurant, he said.
Under the pilot program, Town
will also offer discounts to customers who take Uber or Lyft to
the restaurant. Town is almost
completely reservation based.
We want to get creative as possible to offer discounts for people
who dont drive to the restaurant,
he said. We want to do anything
we can do to prevent someone
from drinking and driving.

The takeaway is that for the students that middle college is right

Dumbarton Rail: A bridge to the past

ackers of plans to resurrect the

abandoned Dumbarton Rail Bridge
look forward to the day when commuters no longer clog freeways with cars
but get from one place to another by train.
Their high hopes are nothing compared to
those who hailed the opening of the span in
1910.
The distance from Oakland to San
Francisco by way of the bridge is 26 miles
less than by way of San Jose, Frona
Colburn wrote in a long column in the July
4, 1910, Redwood City Democrat. She was
more concerned about what the bridge, the
first on San Francisco Bay, would do for
freight trains than for passengers, who
seemed to be treated as an afterthought in
the article. Her attitude was not surprising
when one takes into account that at the time
most people worked near their homes. The
important contribution of the new bridge
was that it meant a great savings of time
and simplifies the handling of freight cars.
There would be no need for what were
referred to as trans-bay freight boats.
Freight trains dominated future business
on the Dumbarton Bridge, but from 1912 to
at least 1918, there was passenger service.

Aerial view of the existing alignment.

In addition, there were some trains made up
of both freight and passenger cars. There are
still some old Dumbarton passenger timetables around that show trains ran from
Newark to Redwood City where passengers
could transfer for San Francisco or San Jose.
The optimistic Colburn forecast that
electric trains would offer service every
10 minutes. Didnt happen. What Colburn
didnt, or couldnt, see was the future importance of the automobile. Cars and trucks, in
just 10 years, had a huge impact on railroads. In 1927, a two-lane vehicle bridge
opened adjacent to the rail bridge. In 1982,
a four-lane bridge took over. Two years

Kidnapping victim
missing even though
4 arrested in case
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

VALLEJO
Police in Northern
California are investigating the kidnapping
for ransom of a woman who remains missing even though four suspects have been
arrested in the case.
Elvira Babb, 57, was last seen June 29 by
a co-worker who dropped her off at a market
in Vallejo, Lt. Jeff Bassett said.
Her son, John Babb of San Francisco,
received a text message the next day
demanding money, described under six figures, and threatening his mothers life if he
did not comply or contacted to police. Babb
replied, but he didnt get a response, Bassett
said.
Babb went to his mothers home after
receiving the text and found her Chihuahua
dog dead. On July 1, Babb reported his
mothers kidnapping to Vallejo police.
A weeklong investigation, which
includes the FBI, the Sacramento and
Fairfield police departments, Solano
County Sheriffs Office and U.S. Marshals
Service, led authorities to Emmanuel
Espinoza, 26, of Stockton, who was arrested in the Sacramento area and is considered
the primary suspect, Bassett said.
Espinoza was an acquaintance of Elvira,
though the extent of their relationship was
unknown, police said.
Authorities also arrested Jalon Brown,
32, and Larry Young, 23, of Sacramento and
Lovely Rauzol, 27, of Vallejo.
The suspects are not cooperating with
police and have not divulged the location of
the missing victim. Investigators have no
leads as to where Babb may be or whether
she is alive, Bassett said.

Elvira Babb
We definitely have the primary suspects, he said. If there are others, the suspects arent cooperating with us.
The department waited until Saturday to
release the information for the safety of
the victim, he said.
The Vallejo Police Department came under
fire last year after describing the kidnapping of Denise Huskins from her Vallejo
home as a hoax. Federal prosecutors later
charged disbarred Harvard-educated lawyer
Matthew Muller with Huskins kidnapping.
In a lawsuit filed against the city in
March, Huskins and her boyfriend, Aaron
Quinn, accused Vallejo police of defamation
and infliction of emotional distress.

later, the center section of the 1927 bridge

was demolished in a controlled explosion.
The rail bridge is only five miles long and
has been out of service since the 1980s. On
Jan. 2, 1998, a fire hit the abandoned structure that had seen the last freight train roll
over its tracks in 1982. The blaze collapsed
the western approach, but the spans swinging section, which rotated to make way for
boats, still stands, left in the open position. In the bridges heyday, boaters would
signal the bridge operator who used a diesel
engine to twist the section so vessels could
pass.
Replacing or repairing and getting the
rail bridge in working order is only one part
of a massive plan called the Dumbarton Rail
Corridor project, which totals 20.5 miles.
The Bay Rail Alliance said that three new
passenger rail stations should be built.
Proposed service calls for six trains across
the bridge during the morning commute and
six during the evening. Morning trains
would originate at Union City, cross the
Bay and then three trains would travel north
to San Francisco and three south to San Jose
along Caltrain tracks. All trains would
reverse pattern and go back to Union City.
Other service patterns and frequency
would be possible in the future as the service
gains popularity, the alliance said on its
website. Hows that for optimism? Perhaps

Police may change tactics at protests after Dallas shooting

By Jeff Baenen
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MINNEAPOLIS

Demonstrators decrying police

killings of black men have faced a
wide array of police tactics, from
hugs to flash-bang grenades and
mass arrests. That raises the question of whether authorities might
abandon their recent shift toward a
less intimidating presence in
favor of strategies meant to protect police particularly after the
deaths of five officers at a Dallas
protest.
After days of peaceful protests
in St. Paul, officers in riot gear

met protesters who blocked

Interstate 94 late Saturday in the
biggest confrontation between
police and demonstrators since an
officer fatally shot a black man
during a suburban Twin Cities traffic stop last week. About 100 people were arrested half during the
highway standoff and the other
half early Sunday in another part
of St. Paul and 21 St. Paul
police officers and six state troopers were hurt. Police Chief Todd
Axtell called the pelting of officers with rocks, bottles, firecrackers and other objects a disgrace.
Police used smoke bombs to
clear the crowd of more than 200

people blocking the interstate. It

was a contrast to their approach at
protests outside the governors
mansion in the wake of motorist
Philando Castiles police shooting death Wednesday in the suburb
of Falcon Heights. Gov. Mark
Dayton, a Democrat, has praised
the calmer demonstrations outside
his home and said he wont try to
have people removed.
Protests have broken out
nationwide following the deaths
of 32-year-old Castile and 37year-old Alton Sterling in Baton
Rouge, Louisiana. In Dallas, five
police officers were killed and
seven wounded when a gunman

opened fire on a protest march

Thursday.
But most of the demonstrations
havent been as tense as the scene
in Dallas that night or the highway standoff in St. Paul.
In Oakland, California, police
ceded a highway to protesters
last week and did not stop them
from shutting it down. In
Philadelphia, plainclothes officers have mingled with protest
crowds. Even in Dallas before the
shooting, officers mingled and
posed for photos with people at
the demonstration.
I think officers are vigilant
every time they put the badge on

and the uniform on. I dont think

its going to stop the officer from
interacting with the men and
women who are out there at a
peaceful protest, said Sean
Gormley, executive director of
Law Enforcement Labor Services,
Minnesotas largest police union.
Craig Lally, president of the
union representing Los Angeles
police officers, said he suspects
changes will be made at departments across the country when it
comes to staffing protests and
similar events.
I think theyre going to have
to be much more aware of their surroundings, he said.

Dallas suspect scrawled letters in blood

At parking garage
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

DALLAS The suspect in the deadly

attack on Dallas police officers scrawled
letters in his own blood on the walls of the
parking garage where officers cornered and
later killed him, the police chief said
Sunday.
Micah Johnson, a 25-year-old Army veteran, wrote the letters RB and other
markings, David Brown told CNNs State
of the Union.
Investigators are looking through evidence from Johnsons suburban Dallas
home to try to figure out what those letters
might mean, Brown said.
The chief defended the decision to kill
Johnson using a robot-delivered bomb,
saying negotiations went nowhere and
that officers could not approach him without putting themselves in danger.
During the roughly two-hour standoff in
the garage, Johnson lied to and taunted the
police negotiators, Brown said.
Johnson had practiced military-style
drills in his yard and trained at a private
self-defense school that teaches special
tactics, including shooting on the
move, a maneuver in which an attacker
fires and changes position before firing
again.
He received instruction at the Academy
of Combative Warrior Arts in the Dallas
suburb of Richardson about two years ago,
said the schools founder and chief instructor, Justin J. Everman.
Evermans statement was corroborated
by a police report from May 8, 2015, when
someone at a business a short distance
away called in a report of several suspicious people in a parked SUV.
The investigating officer closed the case

just minutes after arriving at a strip mall.
While there, the officer spoke to Johnson,
who said he had just gotten out of a class
at a nearby self-defense school.
Johnson told the officer he was waiting
for his dad to arrive and pick up his brother. No one else was apparently questioned.

Black Lives Matter

activist arrested at
Baton Rouge protest
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BATON ROUGE, La. A prominent

Black Lives Matter activist and 98 other
people were taken into custody, authorities
said Sunday, after protesters took to the
streets to call for justice and voice anger
over the fatal shooting of an AfricanAmerican man by two white police officers.
Spokeswoman Casey Rayborn Hicks of
the East Baton Rouge Sheriffs Office told
the Associated Press that nearly 100 people
were taken to the parish jail in connection
with the protests that began Saturday. The
vast majority of the people arrested were
from Louisiana, and they included two
reporters. A first wave of arrests took place
on Friday and early Saturday, with 30 people
taken into custody.
Tensions between black citizens and

police have risen palpably over the past

week or so amid police shootings of
African-American men in Minnesota and
Louisiana and the gunning down of five
white police officers by a black suspect in
Dallas in apparent retaliation.
Among those arrested was DeRay
Mckesson, according to an Associated Press
reporter who was at the scene. Mckesson is
a leading figure in the Black Lives Matter
movement that blossomed in the wake of
the 2014 killing of Michael Brown in
Ferguson, Missouri at the hands of police.
Authorities had just arrested a couple on a
motorcycle driving by on the street when
attention turned toward Mckesson. An officer could be heard pointing to a man with
loud shoes, and saying he would arrest
him if he could reach him. Mckesson was
wearing bright red shoes.

described Johnson as a mobile shooter

who had written manifestos on how to
shoot and move.
Authorities have said the gunman kept a
journal of combat tactics and had amassed a
personal arsenal at his home, including
bomb-making materials, rifles and ammunition.
The academy website refers to one of its
courses as a tactical applications program, or TAP.
Reality is highly dynamic, you will be
drawing your firearm, moving, shooting
on the move, fixing malfunctions, etc. all
under high levels of stress, the website
says. Most people never get to train these
skills as they are not typically allowed on

The TAP training includes shooting
from different positions, drawing under
stress and drawing from concealment.
Everman declined to specify which classes
Johnson took.
I dont know anything about Micah.
Im sorry. Hes gone. Hes old to us. I have
thousands of people, Everman told The
Associated Press on Saturday.
The two men, however, were friendly and
talked in Facebook conversations in
August 2014. Everman knew Johnson had
been out of the country. Army officials said
he had been deployed in Afghanistan
around that time.
Everman suggested that Johnson let me
know when you make it down this way.
Will be great to get you back in the
academy, Everman said, according to a
comment thread saved by the AP before
Johnsons Facebook profile was taken
down.
I concur! Johnson replied.
More recently, a neighbor reported to
investigators that Johnson had been seen
practicing some sort of military drill in his
backyard in the Dallas suburb of Mesquite,

said Clay Jenkins, the Dallas County

judge, the countys most senior elected
official.
Tensions were still high Saturday in
Dallas, where 20 square blocks of downtown remained cordoned off as a crime
scene. The police department tightened
security Saturday evening after receiving
an anonymous threat.
Johnson, who donned a protective vest
and used a military-style semi-automatic
rifle for the shootings, which marked the
deadliest day for U. S. law enforcement
since the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.
In all, 12 officers were shot just a few
blocks from where President John F.
Kennedy was slain in 1963.
Johnson was a private first class with a
specialty in carpentry and masonry. He
served in the Army Reserve for six years
starting in 2009 and did one tour in
Afghanistan from November 2013 to July
2014, the military said.
The attack began Thursday evening
while hundreds of people were gathered to
protest the police killings of Philando
Castile, who was fatally shot near St. Paul,
Minnesota, and Alton Sterling, who was
shot in Louisiana after being pinned to the
pavement by two white officers.
Video showed protesters marching along
a downtown street about half a mile from
City Hall when shots erupted and the crowd
scattered, seeking cover.
Marcus Carter, 33, was in the area when
people started running toward him, yelling
about gunshots.
Carter said the first shot sounded like a
firecracker. But then they proceeded in
quick succession, with brief pauses
between spurts of gunfire.
It was breaks in the fire, he said. It
was a single shot and then after that single
shot, it was a brief pause, followed by
many shots in quick succession.

Police on edge amid heightened threats

By Greg Schreier
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ATLANTA Police agencies

across the U.S. are on edge and on
guard after receiving threats and
calls for violence against them on
social media in the aftermath of
the killings of two black men and
the sniper attack that left five officers dead in Dallas. Some departments ordered officers to pair up or
more generally said they were
heightening security.
Authorities have said the Dallas
gunman, who also wounded seven
other officers and two civilians,
wanted to exterminate whites in
the aftermath of the killings of
Philando Castile in Minnesota
and Alton Sterling in Louisiana.
And a man who killed one person
and wounded three others
including an officer in
Tennessee apparently told investigators he was motivated by the
recent killings of black men by
police.
Since then, threats ranging from
generic promises of violence to
specific video postings have been
made, only heightening fears of
further attacks. In Dallas, authori-

ties received an anonymous threat
Saturday, prompting police to
tighten up security. Officers
swarmed the departments headquarters, searching for a reported
suspicious person in a garage
before finally issuing an all-clear.
While some threats have been
unspecific and not credible, other
promises of violence have been

more targeted. In Louisiana, a man

was accused of posting a video
online showing him in his vehicle
behind a police car, saying he
wanted to shoot and kill an officer.
Police say Kemonte Gilmore
flashes a handgun in the video and
talks about the slayings of Castile
and Sterling.
Police also say a Wisconsin

man posted calls on social media

for black men to gun down white
officers, and a woman in Illinois
is accused of threatening in an
online video to shoot and kill any
officer who pulled her over.
In Mississippi, Waveland
Police Chief David Allen told The
Sun Herald newspaper threats had
come via phone and social media
and involved possible gunfire
attacks over the weekend. Extra
police were to be on duty.
Mawuli Davis, an AfricanAmerican attorney and activist in
Atlanta, said whats happening is
a continuation of events in recent
years because there has been no
serious dialogue over issues of
race and police encounters with
black people.
Davis and his associates insist
on peaceful protests as a means to
an end, and indeed, most protests
across the U. S. have gone on
without a hint of violence. But
until that serious discussion happens, he said he fears were going
to continue to see this kind of
tragic incident like the Dallas
attack.
From an activist perspective,
youre seeing a level of frustration

and anger that very well may be at

a tipping point, he said.
Tensions between police and
African-Americans have been on
the rise in recent years amid the
high-profile deaths of several
black men at the hands of law
enforcement.
The deaths have fomented unrest
from Ferguson, Missouri, to
Baltimore and heightened calls for
greater accountability of police,
particularly in the urban, majority-black neighborhoods they
patrol.
While race has not necessarily
been a factor in every case, the
deaths have become a rallying cry
for groups such as Black Lives
Matter who are calling for solutions to problems that plague
African-American communities,
from poor educational opportunities to joblessness to high incarceration rates.
Organizations that monitor
hate groups condemned the
Dallas attack, with the Southern
Poverty Law Center calling it an
act of domestic terrorism. The
gunman, Micah Johnson, followed black militant groups on
social media.

Attacks on police: Inspired or directed by militant groups?

By Lisa Marie Pane
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

DALLAS Police shootings of

black men in Louisiana and
Minnesota were followed by calls
from black militant groups and
others to seek vengeance against
officers. Almost immediately,
several officers were attacked,
including the five slain by a
sniper in Dallas.
Now authorities are investigating whether the Dallas gunman
was directed by those groups or
merely emboldened by them.
I think its safe to say well
leave no stone unturned, Dallas

Deputy Police Chief Scott Walton

said.
Police have been tight-lipped
about exactly what theyre investigating and what theyve uncovered so far. Although Micah
Johnson was connected to several
militant groups on social media,
its unclear if he was merely a follower or a more active participant.
Similar questions have been
raised by international terrorist
organizations such as the Islamic
State group: How is the network
encouraging
and
directing
attacks? Is it a coordinated effort
or are the attacks simply a byproduct of hate speech espoused by the

groups on social media?

The number of black separatist
groups nearly doubled in 2015,
mirroring a similar increase
among white hate groups that has
taken place as police killings
make frequent headlines, said
Ryan Lenz, online editor and senior writer at the Southern Poverty
Law Center.
Still, many people who become
radicalized do so without direct
ties to any groups. Instead, they
surf the web and grow their anger
in private, Lenz said.
In the last couple of years,
weve seen this violence become
an ever-present reality in our

lives, Lenz said. We are in a

polarized political climate right
now where the us-versus-them
mentality has started to reign
supreme.
Johnson followed black militant groups on Facebook, including the African American Defense
League, which posted a message
that referenced the police shooting of Alton Sterling in Baton
Rouge, Louisiana: You and I
know what we must do and I dont
mean marching, making a lot of
noise, or attending conventions.
We must Rally The Troops! It is
time to visit Louisiana and hold a
barbeque.

Other groups Johnson liked

included the New Black Panther
Party, the Nation of Islam and the
Black Riders Liberation Party. The
last two are described as hate
groups by the law center, which
monitors hate crimes and rightwing extremism.
Johnsons Facebook photo
showed him wearing a dashiki and
raising his fist over the words
Black Power. His cover shot carried the red, black and green PanAfrican flag.
Theres no evidence such groups
have directed violent events, but
their rhetoric has served as inspiration, Lenz said.

NAFTA a sore spot for some Democrats

By Thomas Beaumont
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MOUNT CLEMENS, Mich.

Michigan is trickier than it may
appear for Hillary Clinton, a
Democrat whose partys presidential nominees have carried the
struggling manufacturing hub for
decades.
Bernie Sanders beat her in the
states Democratic primary by
railing against the North
American Free Trade Agreement.
Republican Donald Trump is more
popular with Michigans workingclass white voters than past GOP
candidates, and has pledged to
back out of the treaty some blame
for the loss of countless Rust Belt
jobs.
While Clintons history of supporting free trade may not cost her
the state, it is costing campaign
staff and money to defend its 16
electoral votes.

Its an issue that Sanders used

to his advantage in the primary
and obviously was successful,
said Michigan Democratic organizer Amy Chapman, who was
Barack Obamas state director in
2008 and a senior adviser in 2012.
Obviously, its something they
need to figure out as they figure
out what it takes to win
Michigan.
Trump last week blasted the pact
signed by President Bill Clinton
and predicted that backing out
would restore millions of vanished factory jobs.
At stake is the white, workingclass vote, which Trump says he
can turn out in droves, thereby
putting upper Midwestern battlegrounds
long
carried
by
Democrats into competition in
his quest for the 270 electoral
votes needed to win the presidency.
Trump says his appeal to disaf-

fected workers
has taken hold,
and can put in

a
n
d
Pennsylvania,
states carried
by Democratic
p r e s i de n t i a l
Hillary Clinton c a n d i d a t e s
since
the
1980s.
Hillary Clinton supports renegotiating NAFTA, signed in 1992
and in effect since 1994, with
Canada and Mexico. She also has
said she opposes the Trans-Pacific
Partnership, an ambitious agreement with Asian nations.
But she also has demonstrated
that Trumps argument is worth her
time to rebut. Last week, Clinton
criticized Trumps business practices and sought the help of U.S.
Rep. Brenda Lawrence, D-Mich.,
to argue Trumps practice as a real

estate mogul contradicts his talk.

What happened in the Trump
Casino in Atlantic City was the
fact that he did not honor contracts, Lawrence told Michigan
reporters after Clinton spoke in
Atlantic City, New Jersey. He did
not pay for services.
Trumps trade position, a sharp
departure from Republican orthodoxy, has the appearance of moving to Clintons left on trade, and
sounds an alarm for her to address
the treaty in Michigan, say
Democratic activists in the state.
She has to admit that NAFTA
hurt people here tremendously,
said Ed Bruley, Democratic chairman in Macomb County, a largely
white, working-class suburban
area stretching northeast from
Detroit.

can

Islamic States Twitter traffic

plunges 45% amid US efforts
By Bradley Klapper
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON The Islamic State

groups Twitter traffic has plunged 45 percent in the past two years, the Obama
administration says, as the U.S. and its
allies have countered messages of jihadi
glorification with a flood of online images
and statements about suffering and enslavement at the hands of the extremist organization.
Among the images: A teddy bear with
Arabic writing and messages saying IS
slaughters childhood, kills innocence,
lashes purity or humiliates children. A
male hand covering a females mouth, saying IS deprives woman her voice. A
woman in a black niqab (veil), bloody tears
coming from a bruised eye, and the caption:
Women under ISIS. Enslaved. Battered.
Beaten. Humiliated. Flogged.
U.S. officials cite the drop in Twitter traffic as a sign of progress toward eliminating
propaganda they blame for inspiring
attacks around the world.
When the U.S. formed an international
coalition in September 2014 to fight IS, the
administration outlined multiple goals:
military action and cutting off foreign
fighters and finances, confronting the
groups extremist ideology and stemming

the militants growing popularity in the

Arab world and beyond.
The messaging element of the campaign
struggled early on. Much of the anti-IS content put online was in English, limiting its
effectiveness. At the time, social media networks were only getting started with new
technological approaches to the challenge
of disabling accounts that were recruiting
and radicalizing prospective IS members.
These shortcomings have been fixed,
American officials believe. Memes and
images depicting the groups treatment of
women, children and others are presented
almost entirely in Arabic. Whereas the U.S.
previously blasted the information out
itself, it disseminates messages now
through Muslim governments, religious
leaders, schools, youth leaders and advocacy groups with credibility in local communities. Data show the proliferation of IS
propaganda decreasing.
Were denying ISIL the ability to operate
uncontested online, and were seeing their
social media presence decline, said
Michael Lumpkin, head of the Global
Engagement Center, which coordinates the
U.S. governments approach to fighting
extremist messaging. Using an alternate
acronym for the group, he said anti-ISIL
audiences are increasingly vocal on social
media.

Police say third victim dies in

attacks on San Diego homeless
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN DIEGO A man injured during a

series of attacks on homeless men in San
Diego died at a hospital Sunday bringing
the death toll to three, police said.
Dionicio Derek Vahidy, 23, died four days
after he became the fourth and final victim
in the attacks, police said. Vahidy had been
in grave condition since Wednesday and had
not been expected to survive.
Vahidy was from San Diego and was
homeless, police said. He was attacked at an
apartment complex downtown, police said.
A witness pulled away a burning cloth that
the attacker put on him before fleeing.
In the days before the attack on Vahidy,
two other men were killed and a third was
severely injured. Three victims were sleeping alone, and two were set on fire.
On Thursday, Anthony Padgett, 36, was
arrested on suspicion of murder, attempted
murder and arson in the attacks.
He has not yet appeared in court, and its
not clear whether he has hired an attorney.
Attempts by The Associated Press to reach
family members have been unsuccessful.
Padgett was arrested about a block from a

trolley station in Chula Vista, the San

Diego suburb where he was born.
The violence began July 3, when police
found the badly burned remains of Angelo
De Nardo between Interstate 5 and train
tracks. The 53-year-old died before his body
was set on fire.
The next day, officers responding to a 911
call found Manuel Mason, 61, with lifethreatening injuries to his upper torso. A
few hours later, police discovered the body
of Shawn Longley, 41, who bled from the
upper torso and died.
Then on Wednesday came the attack on
Vahidy.
Padgett committed a nearly identical
crime six years ago, admitting to setting a
man on fire and leaving him badly burned in
a supermarket parking lot in the San Diego
suburb of National City.
He said in a note to a judge at the time that
he was drunk and high on drugs when he did
it and had only meant to scare the victim,
who he knew.
In the note, Padgett also called himself a
homeless citizen, asks Jesus to forgive
his sins and expresses remorse for the victim, saying, Ill never be so stupid again.

problem.
Although its not Michigans
only example, Macomb County
represents the heart of this voting
bloc.
The county northeast of Detroit
is a frayed series of suburbs epitomized by county seat Mount
Clemens. The once-thriving
automakers bedroom community
is marked by shuttered buildings,
including the 15-story former
courthouse, an art deco monument
to more prosperous days.
Less than 20 miles away, the
Mexican and Canadian flags fly
alongside the stars and stripes outside General Motors Technical
Center in Warren.
Michigan has lost a net of more
than 500,000 manufacturing jobs
since 2000, according to federal
labor statistics, a dive that steepened during the recession that
infected the rest of the nation in
2008.

Obama urges greater respect after shootings

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MADRID President Barack

Obama on Sunday urged respect
and restraint from Americans
angered by the killing of black
men by police, saying anything
less does a disservice to the
cause of ridding the criminal justice system of racial bias.
He also urged law enforcement
to treat seriously complaints that
they are heavy-handed and intolerant, particularly toward minorities.
Id like all sides to listen to
each other, Obama said in
response to a reporters question
after he met with Spains acting
prime minister, Mariano Rajoy,
during an abbreviated first visit to
Spain as president.
Obamas appeal for greater
understanding from opposing
sides of the emotionally charged
debate over police practices followed the weekend arrests of
scores of people in Louisiana and
Minnesota who protested the

s h o o t i n g
deaths
by
police of black
men in both
states
last
week.
Those deaths
were followed
by a stunning
sniper attack Barack Obama
last Thursday in
Dallas that killed five police officers and wounded seven others as
they watched over a peaceful
protest of the weeks earlier
shootings.
Among those arrested in
Louisiana was an activist prominent in the Black Lives Matter
movement, which gained national
prominence following earlier
deaths of mostly unarmed black
men at the hands of police across
the U.S.
Obama, in his remarks, urged
protesters to recognize that police
officers have a difficult job.
Whenever those of us who are
concerned about failures of the

criminal justice system attack

police, you are doing a disservice
to the cause, Obama said, the
fourth straight day that he has
commented on the distressing
chain of events at home.
The presidents remarks on the
issue likely foreshadowed the
message he will deliver Tuesday in
Dallas, when he addresses an interfaith memorial service for the
slain officers. He was invited to
speak by Mayor Mike Rawlings,
the White House said.
Obama repeated Sunday that
most U.S. police officers do a
good job, and said rhetoric portraying them as doing otherwise
does little to build support for
eliminating racial bias from the
criminal justice system.
Maintaining a truthful and serious and respectful tone is going to
help mobilize American society to
bring about real change, Obama
said.
The president also called for balance from law enforcement. I
would hope that police organiza-

Japans ruling coalition wins election

By Yuri Kageyama
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

TOKYO Japans ruling coalition was a clear winner in Sundays

parliamentary elections, preliminary results and Japanese media
exit polls indicated, paving the
way for Prime Minister Shinzo
Abe to push ahead with his economic revival policies, but also
possibly changing the nations
postwar pacifist constitution.
Half of the seats of the less powerful upper house were up for
grabs. There had been no possibility for a change of power because
the ruling coalition, headed by
Abes Liberal Democratic Party,
already controls the more powerful
lower house, but the balloting was
a key gauge of how much support
Abes coalition has among the
public. The opposition had called
on voters to show their rejection
of Abes position to have a more
assertive military role for Japan.
According to the exit polls, the
Liberal Democrats won 57 to 59

seats among the 121 that were

contested. Its coalition partner
Komeito won about 14 seats.
Combined with other conservative politicians, the coalition may
win a two-thirds majority in the
upper house, which would be critical to propose a referendum needed
to change the constitution.
Japanese broadcaster NHK reported that the Liberal Democrats may
clinch the majority on their own.
Final results of the balloting
arent expected until early
Monday.
Abe showed up before TV cameras at party headquarters, all
smiles, to pin red flowers, indicating confirmed wins, next to his
candidates names written on a big
board.
I am honestly so relieved, he
told NHK, promising new government spending to help wrest the
economy out of the doldrums in a
total and aggressive way.
He declined to give the amount
for the spending. He also said discussions should start on changing

the constitution to work out

details.
With their pro-business policies, the Liberal Democrats have
ruled Japan almost continuously
since World War II, and until
recently enjoyed solid support
from rural areas. The few years the
opposition held power coincided
with the 2011 earthquake, tsunami
and nuclear disasters that devastated northeastern Japan. The opposition, however, fell out of favor
after being heavily criticized for
its reconstruction efforts.
Robert Dujarric, professor and
director of the Institute of
Contemporary Asian Studies at
Temple University Japan in
Tokyo, said the win reflected voters disenchantment with the
opposition, rather than their
excitement about Abes policies.
The public is old. It doesnt
want change, he said. It doesnt
want what Japan really needs
more structural reform, less money
for the old and more funding for
families and children.

tions are also respectful of the

frustrations that people in these
communities feel and not just dismiss these protests and these complaints as political correctness,
he said.
It is in the interest of police
officers that their communities
trust them, Obama said.
Some of Obamas critics have
accused him of helping create an
environment for attacks on law
enforcement by blaming their
conduct in previous incidents and
sympathizing with Black Lives
Matter and other groups that complain about racial unfairness in the
justice system.
The president traveled to Spain
after attending a NATO summit in
Poland, but the sheer horror over
the killings overshadowed most
of his public appearances in both
countries. Spain, nevertheless,
was thrilled to welcome the first
U.S. president to visit in more
than a decade. Tourists and curiosity seekers lined some streets in
hopes of catching a glimpse of

Obama, and local TV aired wall-towall coverage of his movements.

Obama was supposed to spend
two days in Spain but cut the visit
to about a day because of the
shootings.
Weve had a difficult week in
the United States, he told King
Felipe VI before they met privately at the Royal Palace.
Obama also expressed gratitude
for Spains military contributions
as a fellow NATO ally, and for
hosting U.S. sailors and guided
missile destroyers at a naval base
on the southern coast. Obama visited the base and met with troops
stationed there before the flight
back to Washington.
It took the White House more
than seven years to lock in Spain
on Obamas foreign travel schedule. But the shootings and the
depth of the response to them
forced Obama into a more hurried
visit instead.
I was hoping for a longer stay,
Obama said. He pledged to return
as an ex-president some day.

Leader in Australia
claims election win,
but questions remain
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SYDNEY Eight days after

Australias general election ended
in uncertainty, the prime minister
finally claimed victory Sunday for
his conservative coalition, bringing an end to the countrys political paralysis at least for the
moment.
Though the question of who won
the July 2 election was answered,
the question of exactly how the
conservatives will rule the fractured Parliament was not.
With official results still days
or even weeks away, it was
unclear whether Prime Minister
Malcolm Turnbulls Liberal
Party-led coalition had won
enough votes to govern in its
own right, or whether it would
need the support of independent
and minor party lawmakers to

form a minority government.

Either way, Turnbull faces a
rough road ahead with a divided
party, a splintered Senate and a
politically weary public that has
endured five changes of prime
minister in as many years.
Though millions of votes still
need to be counted, there was no
way for the opposition center-left
Labor Party to win a majority of
seats
in
the
House
of
Representatives, where parties
form governments. That prompted
opposition leader Bill Shorten to
formally concede the race on
Sunday, which in turn triggered
Turnbull to announce that the
coalition had won a second threeyear term.
We have resolved this election
and done so peacefully, Turnbull
told reporters.

Too many people in the
San Francisco Bay Area
Editor,
We have more than a housing problem. We have a people problem. We
have more trafc, parked cars,
clogged roads and freeways, congested living quarters than the environment can handle.
Huge apartment houses are replacing residential homes. We are overtaxing the environment we call the
Bay Area. More jobs, building projects and trafc lanes are not making it
any better. I have lived here for all
my 76 years and seen so called
progress that developers, realtors and
politicians boast about. There comes
a time when the environment can take
so much. We are running out of room,
water, sewage dispersal, electricity,
trees and open space.
There will be a time when we will
have a major earthquake in the Bay
Area. When that happens, we will be
in major trouble with no way to get
out or get help. All the roads in and
out of the Bay Area will be blocked
by collapsed overpasses and bumper
to bumper trafc.
The only time we had some relief
from rising house prices and reduced
freeway trafc was during the Silicon
Valley bust. The American dream of
owning your own home is rapidly disappearing. If you still believe in the
American dream, you are asleep.

Rules
Editor,
In the movie Grease, John
Travolta uttered these words: The
rules are ... there aint no rules! It
appears that this is true in government. If you are the right person, you
can commit crimes and not be
charged. James Comey laid out a case
for prosecution against Hillary
Clinton and then said he didnt see
malicious intent. If lack of malicious
intent is the criteria, we need to
release Chelsea Manning and quit
chasing Julian Assange and Edward
Snowden.

ark Money by Jane Mayer is the hidden history

of the billionaires behind the rise of the radical
right. We all knew Charles and David Koch were
bad news. But this book exposes how far they have gone to
protect their business interests primarily coal from
government regulations. They have with other powerful modern-day robber barons usurped the political system by forming nonprots to advocate an ultra libertarian agenda and to
disguise the millions of dollars used to support, defeat and
frighten candidates for political ofce.
When libertarian ideas
proved decidedly unpopular
with voters, the Koch brothers and their allies chose
another path. If they pooled
their vast resources, they
could fund an interlocking
array of organizations that
could work in tandem to
inuence and ultimately control academic institutions,
think tanks, the courts,
statehouses, Congress and
they hoped the presidency
(the Kochs are sitting out the
race for president and instead
pouring money into Senate
and House races). They were responsible for the rise and
spread of the Tea Party, which was not, as we were led to
believe, a grass roots uprising. Defeating the Affordable Care
Act was not on the Kochs original agenda. President Obama
had made a deal with the insurance and drug companies to get
it passed. Defeat or attempts to strangle the law was not in
their interests. Instead if was left to Kochs colleagues, a
group of billionaires who met regularly, to make this a top
priority of the Tea Party and Republicans. Meanwhile, people
died or became critically ill because Koch industries ignored
environmental regulations. Their companies were willing to
pay the nes and go on their merry way. The Koch legacy
began with their father, a member of the John Birch Society,
the group that labeled President and General Dwight D.
Eisenhower a Communist. Koch senior made his fortune by
building oil reneries in Stalins Russia and Hitlers
Germany.
Mayer documents why there is such profound income
inequality; why despite the desperate need to address climate
change even modest environmental efforts have been defeated. A tax on carbon emissions, considered the most effective,
is considered dead in the water. Why protections for workers
have been decimated. Why hedge-fund billionaires pay a far
lower tax rate than middle-class workers.

2). Wall Street Thugs. Cotchett describes the last days of

The rst sentence of Jean Edward Smiths biography of
George W. Bush, reads: Rarely in the history of the United
States has the nation been so ill-served as during the presidency of George W. Bush. Smith, a military historian, ends
by suggesting that over time Bush may be considered the
worst president ever.
Its not the presidents domestic agenda which takes the hit
but his taking the United States into an unnecessary war with
devastating consequences for the world. Up to 9/11, Bush
never attended meetings of the National Security Council and
left things to his National Security Advisor Condoleezza
Rice. In Smiths view, the military and moral calamities
began right after the attack. Before 9/11, Bush felt no particular alarm when an Aug. 6 CIA brieng indicated that Osama
bin Laden was up to at least something. But within days of
the attacks, the president had acquired a boundless condence that put the country on a permanent war footing and the
White House into a hothouse climate of the presidents certitude. The author believes that the invasion of Iraq will likely
go down in history as the worst foreign policy decision ever
made by an American president. True, but Bush was not an
evil man, just unwise.

Can drugmakers be shamed

into preventing price spikes?
By Jonathan J. Cooper
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SACRAMENTO Frustrated by
the rising cost of prescription
drugs, California health advocates
hope sunlight and a dose of shame
will discourage drugmakers from
raising their prices too quickly or
introducing new medications at
prices that break the bank.
Theyre promoting legislation
that would require drugmakers to
provide advance notice before
making big price increases.
Pharmaceutical companies have
come out in force against the
measure, warning it would lead to
dangerous drug shortages.
Attention to prescription drug
pricing has mounted since Turing
Pharmaceuticals bought an old
drug commonly used with HIV
patients and raised the price from
$13.50 per pill to $750. The companys combative chief executive,
Martin Shkreli, was widely castigated for the price hike.
Yes, they should make a profit,
but not so much they gouge the
public at the expense of the consumer and the taxpayer, Sen. Ed

Hernandez, a Democrat from Azusa

who wrote the legislation, said of
drug companies. There needs to
be a balance.
Vermont passed the nations
first drug price transparency legislation earlier this year, and similar
measures were introduced in at
least five other states, including
California.
California voters also will
decide in November on a ballot
measure that would prohibit the
state which covers millions of
poor people, inmates and government retirees from paying more
than
the
U. S.
Veterans
Administration for drugs. The VAs
massive negotiating power allows
it to secure some of the lowest
rates for drugs.
Both presumptive presidential
nominees have cited drug prices in
their campaigns. Republican
Donald Trump suggested ending a
restriction on Medicares ability
to negotiate drug prices. Democrat
Hillary Clinton has slammed drug
pricing she labels predatory.
Drug costs represent about 10
percent of overall health care
spending and about 19 percent of

costs for employer-sponsored

health plans, according to the
Kaiser Family Foundation. After
several years of modest growth in
drug spending, which even
decreased in 2010 and 2012, pharmaceutical spending spiked 11.4
percent in 2014, according to the
Kaisers analysis of data from the
Centers for Medicare and Medicaid
Services. Estimates for 2015 suggest prices rose 6.8 percent.
Experts attribute the recent rise
in drug spending to the proliferation of new specialty drugs, many
of them used to treat cancer, and
fewer patent expirations that
allow for generic competition.
Sovaldi, which can cure
Hepatitis C without the excruciating side effects of earlier treatments, debuted in 2014, at a
shocking cost of more than
$80,000 per course of treatment.
The price has since come down.
Californias SB1010 would
require pharmaceutical companies
to provide advance notice to drug
purchasers before increasing the
price of a drug by 10 percent or
$10,000 a year.
For generics, the threshold is

$100 a month or 25 percent.

Insurance companies would be
required to report data on drug
prices to state regulators, including the portion of premiums
attributable to pharmaceuticals.
Proponents hope the advance
notice will give governments,
insurers and pharmacy benefit
managers a chance to negotiate.
But drugmakers warn it could
create regional shortages of some
drugs if large pharmacy chains or
distributors horde medications to
beat the price increase.
That would create an environment for speculators to drive
prices up, not down.
Drug manufacturing is a highly
regulated industry with complex
supply chains that relies on predictable demand, said Brett
Johnson, director of state and
local policy for the California Life
Sciences Association, an industry
group.
This isnt an industry where
they can really react quickly to
surges in demand, Johnson said.
So that creates complications
when were talking about things
like price signaling.

Drugmakers also say the transparency requirements would create

a distorted view of drug pricing,
failing to account for negotiated
discounts or price decreases.
The bills supporters dispute the
risk of shortage, noting many of
the specialty drugs that would trigger the notification have a short
shelf life and require careful handling, making it difficult to stockpile them.
The measure has cleared the
Senate and is moving through the
Assembly, which tends to take a
much more skeptical view of business regulations.
The measure barely survived a
hearing in the Assembly Health
Committee last month and faces
an even tougher test in the
Appropriations Committee when
lawmakers return to the Capitol
following a July break.
These medications are not like
other products, said Anthony
Wright, executive director of
Health Access, one of the advocacy groups sponsoring the measure. People and patients and
insurers are often cases not in a
position to say no.

Women more likely than men to face poverty during retirement

By Adam Allington
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CHICAGO During their working years, women tend to earn less

than men, and when they retire,
theyre more likely to live in
poverty.
These are women who raised
children and cared for sick and elderly family members, often taking
what savings and income they do
have and spending it on things
besides their own retirement security.
The National Institute on
Retirement Security, a nonprofit
research center, reports that
women are 80 percent more likely
than men to be impoverished at

age 65 and older. Women age 75 to

79 are three times more likely.
While experts cite a pay gap as a
major cause for retirement insecurity, other factors play a role,
from single parenthood and
divorce to the fact that women
typically live longer than men.
For Marsha Hall, 60, the
process of trying to save for
retirement has been nearly impossible.
Ive had jobs that included a
401(k) and I was able to put some
money aside, every month, she
says. But then I would get laid off
and have to cash out the 401(k) to
have money to live on.
Born and raised in Detroit, Hall
is divorced and doesnt have any

children. She works part time as a

file clerk. She and her siblings
pitch in to care for their 75-year
old mother. Hall says she tries not
to think about what her situation
will be like at that age.
My bills are current, I have
food, she says, but Im still living paycheck to paycheck, if it
wasnt for Section 8 (a housing
subsidy), I dont know where Id
be living.
Joan Entmacher, vice president
for family economic security at
the National Womens Law Center,
says the solution to the retirement (funding) crisis starts with
the earnings and wage gap.
That gap narrowed between the
1970s and 1990s, but stopped

shrinking in 2001. Women earn

about 76 cents to 79 cents on the
dollar, compared with men.
Women are more likely to report
that Social Security is the biggest
source of income 50 percent to
38 percent for men, according to a
recent poll by the Associated
Press-NORC Center for Public
Affairs Research. Women are 14
percentage points less likely to
say they will receive a pension.
Entmacher says women are more
likely to take on caregiving
responsibilities, which increases
the likelihood they will end up
working part-time jobs, often for
lower wages, and without benefits
such as pensions, sick leave and
health care.

The bulk of stay-at-home

moms are not these high income,
well-educated women that you read
about, she says.
Over a 40-year career, the pay
gap between men and women adds
up to an average of $430,480,
accordion to the Census Bureau.
For minorities and women of
color, the number is much higher.
If we are talking about a 65year-old black woman, she was
born before desegregation, says
Karen Lincoln, a professor at the
University of Southern California
and director of a center for geriatric social work.
Lincoln points to other census
data showing black women are
paid 64 percent that of white men.

LONDON Andy Murrays first

Wimbledon championship was for his

This one was for Andy Murray.

The Hillsborough District 52 All-Stars fell

to the losers bracket of the 9-10-year-old
tournament by virtue of last weeks tight 109 loss to Half Moon Bay.
Now, the sweet swinging Hillsborough
squad has earned a rematch.
Hillsborough advanced through the losers
bracket Sunday at Highlands Park with a 122 mercy-rule victory over Belmont-Redwood
Shores. With the win, Hillsborough
advances to Mondays semifinal round to
take on Half Moon Bay, slated for Highlands
Park at 5:30 p.m. The winner will play
Tuesday in the championship round against
Pacifica American.
Were potent up and down the lineup,
Hillsborough manager Chad Forrest said.
Up and down the lineup, they can hit.
No team in the bracket has scored more
runs than Hillsborough. Through five
games, the squad has totaled 55 runs and has
celebrated back-to-back mercy-rule wins
through the losers bracket.
Sundays triumph saw Hillsborough win it
in walk-off fashion. Entering into the bottom of the fifth inning leading 10-2,
Hillsborough socked its way to the gamewinning rally, capped by an RBI double off
the bat of Kyle Forrest to end it. It was the
teams sixth extra-base hit of the contest.
We usually score a lot of runs in our games
because were a great hitting team, said
Dean Moss, Hillsboroughs No. 3 hitter.
Moss looked like a young Rafael Palmeiro
at the plate Sunday, peppering the ball all
over the yard to notch a 3-for-4, three-RBI
performance. After BRS jumped out to a 1-0
lead in the top of the first, the left-handed
swinging Moss tied it up in the bottom of
the frame by roasting an RBI single to right
to score Dean Dollosso. Cleanup hitter
Conrad Wilbur followed with a single and
later scored the go-ahead run on a basesloaded walk to Dylan Kall.

yet he has a couple teams interested, but
nothing imminent in the way of a formal

special in a couple years.

Portugal stuns France

to hoist first Euro cup
By Rob Harris
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAINT-DENIS, France Portugals players crowded around Cristiano Ronaldo as he

sat on the turf, but their tearful captain couldnt withstand the pain of his injury any
longer.
The Portuguese had to win their first major
trophy the hard way on Sunday, stunning
France 1-0 after extra time in the European
Championship final - having played without
Ronaldo from the 25th minute.
Two hours after being carried off on a
stretcher, the three-time world player of the
year returned a champion for the first time
with his country.
I had bad luck because I had a small injury
in the beginning of the game, but my colleagues did their part they run, they
fight, said Ronaldo, who has already won
every major club honor. Nobody believed in
Portugal but we won.
An unlikely scorer secured the pre-tourna-

ment outsiders a title at last.

It could be an uncomfortable few months
ahead for Eder, the unheralded striker who
will return shortly to French club Lille after
breaking French hearts with his 109thminute goal.
The ugly duckling became beautiful,
Portugal coach Fernando Santos said.
A second-half substitute, Eder scored only
his fourth goal in 29 appearances for
Portugal with a low shot from 25 meters
(yards) past goalkeeper Hugo Lloris.
Cristiano told me I would be scoring the
winning goal, Eder said. He gave me
strength and positive energy.
In doing so, Portugal denied the French a
third final victory on home soil to add to
Euro 84 and the 1998 World Cup.
Football can be very cruel, said Lloris,
Frances captain. The overriding emotion is
a lot of sadness.

postseason Tuesday, July 19 in the singleelimination format, looking to surpass the
Western Conference semifinals, the round
in which they were eliminated last year.
I think they all remember last year and
thought it ended too soon, Dragons head
coach Eric Bucchere said.
In his first year as Burlingames head
coach, Bucchere was an assistant last year
when he added to his wealth of postseason
experience. While he has only one postseason to his credit as a head coach a oneand-done in the NAIA playoffs at the helm
of Menlo College in 2014 he has seen
plenty of playoff games as an assistant and
as a player. Foremost, he advanced to the
Division III national championship game
as a player at UC Santa Cruz in 2004.
Buccheres most consistent weapon this
season in getting back to the playoffs has
been Cox, who tallied Burlingames first
goal Sunday.
Big-time quality play, reliable leadership, Bucchere said of Cox, who has made
all but two starts over the past two seasons.
Just a great example of what we want players to be here for the Dragons.

goals from Corey Baird in the 11th minute;
a breakaway goal from Khalid Arramdani on
an assist from Josh Smith in the 71st
minute; and a close-range strike from Luis
Hernandez in the 81st minute.
Coxs goal in the seventh minute was a
product of being in the right place at the
right time. Striker Danny Musovski did the
busy work, taking a pass weaved beautifully

from the sideline and exacting a shot high

on goal that Mobsters goalkeeper Alex
Cleuis had to leave his feet with full extension to deflect. The rebound found Cox, who
tapped it in for the easy score on the empty
net.
I just ran to the far post to see if I could
get a rebound and it just happened to fall to
my feet, Cox said.

and we had all our hopes pinned on him

because hes a player who can score a goal at
any minute, Portugal defender Pepe said.
When he said he couldnt go on, I tried to
tell my teammates that we have to win it for
him. That we were going to fight for him.
Bucchere attributed the score to Coxs
instinct to the ball, which put him in perfect position to earn the rebound.
Id say he was hungry to get himself in
the box and get himself into position to
sniff a goal, Bucchere said.
It is just this feel for the pitch that
allowed Musovski to step into the striker
role without a hitch this season. The
Dragons team leader in goals this season,
Musovski is in his first season with a
Burlingame, a late addition after joining the
PDL following his season at UNLV, about
20 minutes from where the Mobsters play
their home games.
Musovski made his home debut June 4 for
the Dragons and found instant chemistry
with Cox, with the duo scoring two goals
apiece in the 5-2 win over the Los Angeles
Laguna.
I knew at that point we were going to be
a good duo, Musovski said. Were both
unselfish. So, I knew it was going to be a
good situation.
Cox shares a similar perspective to his
standout teammate.
Danny is a great player, Cox said. We
hooked up pretty quick without knowing
each other and it clicked pretty quickly.
Including that win, the duo has powered
the Dragons to a 4-1-1 record, after winning
just two in their previous six matches.
I feel I was pretty fortunate to click with
this team as soon as I came on the field
especially with Jamael, Musovski said.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

By Anne M. Peterson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Carli Lloyds path to coach James Galanis

started with a humble plea from her dad:
My daughter needs you.
It was 2003 and Lloyd was having what
could best be described as a career crisis. A
talented midfielder who had excelled since
she was 5, shed been cut from the under-21
U.S. national team. She
decided to play out her
senior year at Rutgers and
then move on from soccer.
Then she met Galanis.
In the 13 years since, hes
been her coach, mentor
and even psychologist as
shes risen to the top of
Carli Lloyd
the game.
So after Lloyd scored
her hat trick to lead the
United States to victory
last summer in the
Womens World Cup
final,
she
thanked
Galanis. When she was
named FIFA World Player
of the Year in January, she
James Galanis thanked Galanis.
Its his demeanor and
his knowledge, and the way he says things.
It was just this kind of instant respect that I
had for him. He said to me: This has to
become the No. 1 thing in your life, and I
was willing to do it, Lloyd said. And from
that point on, from the minute we started
together, everything that hes asked of me, I
would do it every single day and Im still
doing it today.
Galanis is brutally honest about what he
found when he first started working with
Lloyd: a gifted player who had been coddled
by coaches and who wasnt willing to put in
the work to be great.
She was just cruising by on her talent,
he said. She was so much better than everyone else, but I knew that someday she was
going to meet up with the rest of the Carli

player who stunned Djokovic in the third
round, Sam Querrey.
Those wins helped Raonic become the first
man representing Canada to reach a major
final.
He did it, primarily, by averaging 25 1/2
aces through six matches. But on a breezy
afternoon, at a Centre Court filled with nearly 15,000 partisan fans, Murray shut down
that integral part of Raonics game.
This ones going to sting, Raonic said.
Its been a rough few weeks for Britain,
what with its vote to leave the European
Union, the drop of the pounds value, and the
resignation of Prime Minister David
Cameron, who was seated in the front row of

from Prince William and his wife, Kate.

joked: Playing in a Wimbledon finals

But her son has dealt with that and thrived,
thanks to a counter-punching game and sublime returns of serve.
It took Raonic 36 minutes and five service
games to record his first ace, and he wound up
with only eight. Over and over, Murray managed to get the ball back, even one that came
in at 147 mph.
And while Murray only broke Raonic once,
to lead 4-3 in the opening set, that was all it
took, because the tiebreakers were surprisingly one-way traffic.
Murray also took 50 of 65 points he
served across the first two sets, not only
never facing so much as a break point in
that span but also being pushed to deuce
merely once.
Finally, at 2-all in the third, Raonic got to
15-40 for his first and, it turned out, only
break points, thanks to a forehand return
winner off an 82 mph second serve.
Potentially turning points, said Carlos
Moya, one of a trio of coaches for Raonic,
including John McEnroe. If he got that
break, who knows what could happen?
But Murray stood tall, taking the next four
points to hold, then wheeled toward his box,
pumping his right fist and yelling.
According to the official statistics, Murray
made only 12 unforced errors, two in the second set. While thats a subjective accounting, anyone watching and listening could
plainly tell that he was striking the ball
cleanly and confidently, a crisp thwack resonating as racket strings hit ball, much more
often than not putting shots right where
intended.
Really good stuff, Murray said.

Games in 2008, she scored in overtime for a
1-0 victory against Brazil.
Her biggest moment came on the games
biggest stage. She scored three goals in the
first 16 minutes last summer in the World
Cup final against Japan in Vancouver. Vice
President Joe Biden was among the U.S.
fans in attendance.
One person who wasnt there was
Galanis, who was vacationing with his family in Greece. Lloyds family stays home
during big tournaments so she can focus,
and likewise Galanis doesnt attend all of
them, instead encouraging her from afar
with texts and emails. Lloyd called him
afterward and he asked what she was doing.
Winning World Cups, he recalled her
saying nonchalantly.
Galanis has worked with other national
team players, including goalkeeper Hope
Solo and former defender Heather Mitts.
More recently he has worked with Yoreli
Rincon, a promising 22-year-old midfielder
who plays for the Colombia national team.
But none has been a full-time job, except
Lloyd.
After a pair of exhibition matches this
month, Lloyd and the rest of the U.S.
national team heads team to Brazil for the
Olympics, opening with a game against
New Zealand on Aug. 3.
The United States has the last three gold
medals in the sport. No team has won a
World Cup then the Olympics in consecutive years.
After the Rio Games, Lloyd will marry her
high school sweetheart, Brian Hollins. And
her book, When Nobody Was Watching:
My Hard-Fought Journey to the Top of the
Soccer World, which details her relationship with Galanis, is set for release at the
end of September.

and her lack of fitness she was in for rejection at some point.
Galanis was a player himself back home
in Australia. He came to the United States in
1997 and saw potential in training highlevel soccer players for professional
careers. In 2000, he founded the Universal
Soccer Academy in Lumberton, New Jersey.
James told my dad, Look, Im going to
train your daughter for free. Im going to get
her on the national team. And all I ask in
return is that she be as dedicated as she can
be, Lloyd said. That was it.
Galanis employs what he calls the Five
Pillars: physical power, mental toughness,
character, technical skills and tactical
awareness.
Both Lloyd and Galanis acknowledge the
mental piece was one of the biggest obstacles, but she dutifully attacked the tasks he
gave her.
She sees that Im there for her. She sees
that Im always working to make her better, Galanis said. And I see that shes fully
dedicated and shes all in 110 percent with
this. We both respect each other and support each other. So, yes, we know its special. And we knew it was special right from
the beginning.
Lloyds success wasnt magic; it was both
a process and hard work, Galanis said. There
were also setbacks: Lloyd was benched
before the 2012 London Games by thencoach Pia Sundhage, who liked the combination of Shannon Boxx and Lauren
Holiday in the central midfielder position.
The demotion didnt last long, however,
because Boxx was injured in the opener.

Felix finishes 4th, no chance for Olympic double

THE DAILY JOURNAL

By Eddie Pells
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

EUGENE, Ore. Allyson Felix had the star

power to change the Olympic schedule.
Now, its her schedule that needs adjusting.
Felixs run at the 200-400 Olympic double,
made possible after Olympics officials honored her request for a chance to run both races,
came to an earlier-than-expected end Sunday.
She finished fourth in the 200-meter final,
one spot away from Rio, in a .01-second loss
to a sprawling Jenna Prandini at U.S. Track
and Field Trials.
Honestly, disappointed, said Felix, who
will not get a chance to defend her Olympic
title in her signature event. The whole year,
that has been what I was working for. When I
look back and see everything that happened, I
still think its quite amazing I was able to
make the team.
She did make the 400-meter lineup, and that
is, indeed, quite an accomplishment considering the injury she suffered this spring. After
landing awkwardly on an exercise ball while
doing core work, she rolled her right ankle.
The injury was so severe she avoided running around the track in the correct, counterclockwise direction until just before trials, for
fear she would put too much outside pressure
on her injured ankle.

While Biles has been a lock for months,
the path to the Olympics was far murkier for
Douglas. A revelation in London four years
ago, the 20-year-old has struggled with her
form in recent weeks and fell off balance
beam for a second straight night while finishing seventh behind Biles.
But she finished third on uneven bars
behind Kocian and Locklear, and national
team coordinator Martha Karolyi has long
believed in Douglas ability to turn it up
when the pressure is on.
Biles, who hasnt lost in more than three
years, posted a two-day total of 123.250.
The trials put an end to three-plus years of
anticipation for the electrifying 19-year-old,
who has rapidly developed from bouncy
prodigy to arguably the greatest gymnast of
all-time.
The only thing missing on a resume that
includes 14 world championship medals and
four national titles is Olympic gold. She will
head to Rio as the heavy favorite to become
the fourth straight American to stand atop the
podium at the end of the all-around finals on

In track parlance, a
sprinter doesnt necessarily have to be fast to succeed in the 400 a full
lap around the track in

important than pure
speed. But in the 200, it
takes a more aggressive
lean into the curve at the
Allyson Felix opening of the race just
the sort of speed work Felix didnt get
enough of during her slow comeback.
I could only do what I could with the
ankle, she said.
And so, she started slow, never made up
ground against winner Tori Bowie or secondplace Deajah Stevens and could not hold off
Prandini, the former University of Oregon star
who had to wait about 30 seconds to see the
result for third place go up on the board.
Afterward, she was scraped-up but smiling.
I dont know what happened, said
Prandini, who finished in 22.53 seconds. But
it got the job done.
One of Felixs biggest fans made news earlier in the day: According to USA Track and
Field, 16-year-old Sydney McLaughlin will be
the youngest member to compete for the U.S.
Olympic track team since 1972 after finishing
third in the 400-meter hurdles.
Aug. 11, the brightest star on a squad that is
very much the gymnastics equivalent of the
Michael Jordan-led Dream Team that overwhelmed the 1992 Games.
Yet the moment Biles has spent her entire
career training for didnt quite go as planned.
Sure, she was spectacular at times particularly on vault where her score of 16.2 included
a 9.9 mark for execution. She also stepped out
of bounds during her floor exercise and
hopped off the beam following a rare mistake.
While her lead was never in danger and
really, it hasnt been since the summer of
2013 theres little doubt the missteps will
linger with Biles as she prepares for Brazil.
The Americans havent lost a major international competition in six years, the gap
between themselves and the rest of the world
hardening along the way. Anything less than
sending Karolyi into retirement with gold
would be a Miracle On Ice-level upset.
The only real drama heading into the final
night of trials centered on who would join
Biles. The precocious 16-year-old Hernandez
who admits shes too naive to know any
better continued her rapid ascension to
perhaps the best threat to Biles long run at
the top. Her best event is the balance beam,
a 45-second test of nerves that she treats like
a workout on the beach. Her score of 15.7 is
gold-medal worthy if she can repeat it in Rio.

confirmed at the Scottish Open that
he will join him in Rio.
Now its up to Jordan Spieth.
With one day before the deadline
to submit the American team for
Rio, Spieth still has not made up his
mind whether the threat of Zika and
other security concerns are enough
to keep him out of the Olympics.
Ty Votaw, the vice president of the

the deadline to commit for the
American team is 5 p.m. at USOC
headquarters in Colorado Springs,

Colorado. That would be midnight at

Royal Troon, where Spieth is playing the British Open.
Two-time Masters champion
Bubba Watson already has said he

Fowler played at St. Andrews upon
his arrival in Scotland before coming over to Troon. Golfweek magazine reported that Peter Dawson, the

Old Course.
Looking forward to wearing

Its big for us mentally, Chad
Forrest said of the quick comeback. We like to take the lead
early and hold onto it.
Moss and Wilbur powered
Hillsborough to add on in a hurry.
The team scored in every inning,
including a five-run rally in the
second. In the top of the second,
Hillsborough starting pitcher
Tyler Spitzer-Wu got his team back
in the dugout with an efficient sixpitch inning. Then Spitzer-Wu
the teams No. 9 hitter sparked
the big rally in the bottom of the
frame with a leadoff single.
Spitzer-Wus knock was the first
of five batters to reach base in the
inning. Whit Tollmann followed
with a long RBI double to center.
Dollosso then walked, forcing
BRS to go to its bullpen. Moss
greeted the relief corps with a
booming two-run double to leftcenter, an impressive swing of the
bat in that it came in a two-strike
count, but was Moss most authoritative contact of the day.
Usually its the same swing I
always take, said Moss, who grew
up learning to hit in the homemade
batting cage in his backyard.
Sometimes (with two strikes) I
like to shorten up and spray the
gaps.
Then Wilbur strode to the plate
in the midst of a 3-for-4, three-RBI
performance of his own and produced the pinnacle of his day,
crushing a two-run home run to
left-center.
As good as Wilbur was at the
plate though, his defense behind
the dish was just as spectacular.
Hillsborough added a run in the
bottom of the third when Dollosso

earned a hit on a two-out blooper

to left field to score Spitzer-Wu.
But in the top of the fourth, BRS
continued to apply pressure at the
plate, only to be denied after getting runners on base for the third
time in four innings.
In its two previous rallies, BRS
had thoughts of going large. In the
first, Tyler Cary had a one-out RBI
single to drive home Tyler Wong,
giving his team a 1-0 lead at the
time. Then in the third, BRS loaded
the
bases,
only
to
see
Hillsborough reliever Kevin Macy
enter to end the threat with an
inning-ending strikeout on a 3-2
changeup.
In the fourth, BRS got its leadoff
batter on when Anthony Ganim
walked. But Wilburs cannon arm
made sure thats where the threat
stopped when, three pitches later,
Macy threw one to the backstop;
but as Ganim tried to advance,
Wilbur turned only to have the ball
ricochet right to him. He promptly
wheeled and fired to throw out
Ganim at second.
To hear Wilbur tell it, there was
nothing exceptional about the
play, though in reality there certainly was. For the lifelong catcher though, executing the long
throw was all about mechanics.
It hit [the backstop], I took the
mask off, it came back to me and I
was able to throw him out, Wilbur
said.
Hillsborough continued to add to
its lead in the bottom of the fourth.
Wilbur and Josh Hanson led off
with back-to-back singles. Then
three BRS errors allowed both base
runners to score. BRS has played
strong defense throughout the
tournament, according to manager
Andrew Cary. But the fact
Hillsborough was peppering the
ball all over the diamond Sunday
ultimately created problems.
I think what carried us in the
tournament is really good

defense, Andrew Cary said. But

[Hillsborough] came out and were
hitting the ball all over the field.

Music and the Brain What Music Does for You and Your Children

by Bryce Martens
Bronstein Music

Weve been following some of the recent research

about music and the brain and wanted to share that
information with you. Current scientific studies have
shown that listening to music causes brain wave
activity that is far greater than doing tasks such as
reading and math. Playing an instrument causes even
more activity.
How do the neuroscientists know these things about
the brain and music? It turns out that theyve made
enormous breakthroughs using bigger and better
machines for monitoring the brain in real time, namely
functional MRI (fMRI) and PET scanners. The results
show that many more areas of the brain become active
simultaneously when people listen to music while they
are connected to these scanners.
But when people are scanned while playing musical
instruments (specially-designed ones that dont
interfere with the scanners operation), the results are

amazing virtually every area of the brain becomes

active. Whats very interesting is that the neural fibers
that connect the left hemisphere of the brain to the
right hemisphere are also very active, meaning that the
logical side of the brain is strongly in touch with the
creative side.
The implications are profound, especially in the
education field. There have been many studies about
the positive correlation between music education and
brain development in children and adults. We know
that music training can improve motor and reasoning
skills. We know that learning music facilitates learning
other subjects and enhances skills that children
inevitably use in other areas, such as language development, math, and the sciences. Research has also found
a causal link between music and spatial intelligence.
Studies have also shown that music students scored
higher on standardized tests.

Those of us who are lucky enough to play music also

know that music is a form of communication.
According to English Magazine, Even today, music is
one of the few ways in which people can connect with
each other without language, it is one way in which
cultures can not only identify themselves but also
communicate with each other and find common
ground.This goes a long way to explain why every
culture has some form of music.

drums, voice, strings, brass, and woodwinds. See our
web site at www.bronsteinmusic.com, or give us a call
at (650) 588-2502 for more information on our classes
and programs.

One of the great brains of all time, Albert Einstein,

had this to say about music: If I were not a physicist,
I would probably be a musician. I often think in music.
I live my daydreams in music. I see my life in terms of
music.

Go Nuts!

Really, do we still have to talk

about spaying and neutering?
Apparently.
I just hung up on someone who
called me cruel, stupid and several
more colorful names for insisting
that every dog, cat and rabbit
adopted from PHS/SPCA is surgically sterilized. Even if that wasnt
the law for Californias animal
shelters, of course wed insist on
spaying and neutering.
Spaying (ovariohysterectomy of
females) and neutering (castration
of males) signicantly reduces the

risks of fatal cancers and other diseases. Perhaps even more importantly, these surgeries make it
impossible for their patients to
produce puppies and kittens, thereby reducing the overpopulation crisis which has long led to euthanasia of millions of animals across
the United States.
PHS/SPCA and this community
have much to be proud of in this
regard. We were the rst humane
organization in the country to offer
low-cost public clinics, something
weve done (now along with our
no-cost mobile clinics) without
interruption since 1970 through

Monday July 11, 2016

the generosity of our members. As
a result, weve reduced euthanasia
here by over 97 percent, making
San Mateo County about the best
place for dogs and cats in the country.
The, ahem, gentleman I just
spoke with wanted a big dog from
us and wanted that big dog to
remain, in his words, far more a
man than the humane societys
president. Methinks the fellow
has a problem or two with issues of
masculine identity. After listening
to his anger for 15 minutes I probably didnt help matters when I told

Secret Life of Pets fetches $103 million

By Lindsey Bahr
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LOS ANGELES Its a good time for animated animals at

the box office. The Secret Life of Pets follows Zootopia
and Finding Dory as the latest success this year, opening
to a massive $103.2 million according to studio estimates
Sunday.
The Illumination Entertainment and Universal Pictures
film cost only $75 million to produce, and it features the
voices of comedians like Louis C.K. and Kevin Hart. Pets
has been warmly received by critics and audiences, who
gave the film a promising A- CinemaScore.
Going into the weekend, analysts predicted it would earn
only around $70 million, which would still have been a big
success.
Not adjusting for inflation, Pets earned the title of best
opening ever for an original animated property. The previous record-holder was Disney and Pixars Inside Out,
which opened to $90.4 million last year.
Its a big moment for Illumination Entertainment the
shop behind the hugely successful Despicable Me series
and Minions. The company is not quite Pixar yet, but its
working toward that sort of recognition.
Illumination has been building a consistency of vision,
and now they have become what every studio covets a
draw, said Paul Dergarabedian, senior media analyst for
box office tracker comScore. Theyre building that brand
reputation with every movie.
The main draw, though, was likely in the simple and
appealing premise: What do your pets do when youre not
around?
I think this movie resonates among all people, said
Nick Carpou, Universals president of domestic distribution. Its a very charming way in for everyone to have fun
with the concept of imagining their pets that way.
Pets effectively unseated Finding Dory from its threeweek run in first place. The little blue fish actually fell to
third place with $20.4 million, behind The Legend of
Tarzan which took in $20.6 million in its second weekend
in theaters.
Even with the drop, Dory this weekend surpassed
Captain America: Civil War to become the top film of

There were also a fair number of adults looking for something new to see this weekend without the kids, helping the

Chaka Khan, sister

enter rehab over
prescription drugs
By Nekesa Mumbi Moody
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK Chaka Khan and her sister have entered a

drug rehabilitation program to battle their addictions to
prescription drugs, and Khan says the death of her good
friend Prince helped hasten her decision to get help.
In a statement released to The Associated Press Sunday,
the 63-year-old Grammy-winning singer said she has been
battling an addiction to the same medication that led to
Princes death. Prince was found dead at his Minnesota
home April 21. An autopsy found he died of an overdose of
fentanyl, a powerful opioid painkiller.
Unfortunately, I will miss concert appearances over the
summer, she said. However, its vital that I put my health
and well-being first. I know that I am disappointing some
of my fans, but I also know they would want me to recover
and be well and healthy.
Khan has entered an intensive rehabilitation and aftercare
program with sister, Yvonne Stevens, also known as Taka
Boom.
Khan said the pair agreed we would take this journey
together and support each other through the recovery.
The tragic death of Prince has had us both rethinking and
reevaluating our lives and priorities. We knew it was time to
take action to save our lives. My sister and I would like to
thank everyone for their support, love and prayers.
Khan covered Princes song I Feel For You, which
became one of her biggest hits. The two were longtime
friends.

A proposed physical improvement
is to expand the bike rack behind the

All community college district campuses host middle college programs,
said Blackwood, which allow high
school students to complete their graduation requirements while also working toward finishing college.
To accommodate the increase in
demand, Blackwood said Skyline
College in San Bruno will double the
amount of students the program serves
in the coming year, while Caada
College in Redwood City and College
of San Mateo have programs enrolling
roughly 250 students annually.
The increase in dual enrollment programs is facilitated by Assembly Bill
288, which went into effect at the
beginning of the year, and encourages
collaboration between community
college districts and local feeder districts.
In middle college, students must take
some classes adhering to their high
school curriculum, and can round out
their schedule with a few college courses as well. Under the law, students can
take as many as 15 community college
units at no charge. Counseling is a
major component of the program as
well, as students are encouraged to take
internships and gather work experience.

nered with him on Proposition 57.

Its bad public policy, Wagstaffe
said Wednesday. It takes us back into
the dark ages.
The initiative, if passed, would
allow for the California Department of
Corrections to give non-violent criminals credit for time served at their
whim and allow them out of prison
without the victims knowledge,
Wagstaffe said.
Proposition 57 also gives judges the
power to decide whether a juvenile
should be tried as an adult rather than
prosecutors.
The proposition is another in a long
string of measures California has
enacted to reduce the states prison
population.
The states prison population has
dropped since the passage of
Proposition 47 and state realignment
of non-violent offenders from
175, 000 to 128, 000 currently,
Wagstaffe said.
Realignment has worked well, he
said.
Weve cut down on over-incarceration without harming the public, he
said.
But Proposition 47, which reduced
penalties for some non-violent
crimes, was not an initiative Wagstaffe

supported.
We dont know the results yet, he
said about the proposition and whether
property crimes have increased since
its passage.
Once it passed, however, and became
law, Wagstaffe has enforced the law.
Wagstaffe believes Proposition 57
will lead to more victims and more
crimes.
I wish Brown would have sat down
with us, Wagstaffe said about the
proposition.
Defeating Proposition 57 will not
likely be easy, though, considering
the limited resources the CDAA has
along with Browns political savvy
and Budnicks money.
We live in a sound bite world and
they will have the most money to
spend on 15-second clips, Wagstaffe
said about the opposition.
There are a number of criminal justice initiatives on the November ballot including the legalization of marijuana for recreational use.
The CDAA opposes the measure
because there is no sound way now to
determine whether someone is driving
under the influence of the drug, he said.
It will be a fascinating November,
he said about the upcoming presidential election.

Blackwood said the new law in tandem with the increased interest in middle college works to jump-start the
academic career of students, as studies
show those who earn college credit
early are likelier to succeed in high
school and transition into higher education.
Jim Lianides, superintendent of the
Sequoia Union High School District,
said in an email he believes the middle
college program has been asset for students in his district.
It is a very popular program for our
students, he said, noting 100 students
are enrolled and a waitlist has formed
to participate.
He noted the program offers additional benefits, such as allowing students exposure to higher education,
while still maintaining their status as
high schoolers, which allows them to
participate on sports teams and other
extracurricular activities.
Students can gain a substantial
advantage in their pursuit of a degree
by participating in the program, said
Lianides.
Most middle college students graduate from high school with one year of
college credit and there is always one
or two that also graduate having completed all requirements for an [associates] degree as well, he said.
The middle college program is not
the only type of unconventional educational program at local community
college campuses, said Blackwood,

noting the district launching an initiative at Skyline College offering baccalaureate degrees in respiratory care.
The pilot program is one of only 15
in the state in which community college students can graduate with a fouryear degree in specific trades.
Blackwood said ultimately she expects
the offering to draw more students to
enroll in the district.
For now though, Blackwood said the
districts enrollment has essentially
held steady with the ebbs and flows of
previous years and mirrors the health
of the economy.
Traditionally, when the local job
market is thriving, district students
take fewer units, said Blackwood, and
classrooms fill up when work is harder
to find.
Students are taking fewer courses
because they are working more, said
Blackwood. When unemployment
goes down, so does enrollment.
District officials backfill the loss of
revenue when enrollment dips by
recruiting more international students,
said Blackwood.
The result is a more diverse campus,
filled with working community college students, those from overseas and
others in middle college, which
Blackwood said she believed is a
model example of creative and innovative offerings that meets the demands
of students.
Its a great program, she said.
