Surf Air slows operations at
San Carlos airport to a halt
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
After some five years of operations at the
San Carlos Airport, the small-aircraft, mem-
bers-only airline Surf Air has not landed any
flights at the county-owned airport in more
than a month, according to airport officials.
The airport doesn’t have information on
whether the airline will continue operations,
airport spokesman Davi Howard said in an
email, who noted Surf Air does not corre-
spond with the airport about its operations.
Airport Manager Gretchen Kelly said pre-
viously the airline ramped up its service to
an average of 15 flights a day in early 2017
from some three a day when it first started
operations at the airport in 2013.
The downshift in flights this summer cor-
responds with the flaring of a legal dispute
between Surf Air and its former operator,
Encompass Aviation, which alleged it never
received some $3.1 million in overdue pay-
ments from Surf Air in a lawsuit filed with
the U.S. District Court in the Southern
District of New York in June. The airline
responded with a counterclaim filed with the
same court in July in which it called its for-
mer business partner a disgruntled vendor
whose leaders attempted to oust the airline’s
management and take over the company.
Noise from aircraft using the San Carlos
Airport has been a source of concern for res-
idents in San Mateo and Santa Clara counties
since 2013, when Surf Air began routing
flights through the general aviation airport
where pilots of small aircraft train and store
their aircraft.

County officials to
review flamethrower ban
As the record wildfires raging across Northern California
this summer begin to die down, county officials will con-
sider a ban on flamethrowers in an effort to curb the risk of
fire in San Mateo County.
Up for review at their Tuesday meeting, the proposed ban
on the sale, possession and use of flamethrowers — which
are defined as a device capable of emitting fire or com-
bustible liquid a distance of 22 inches or more — is aimed at

mitigating the unacceptable risk they pose in light of the
increased severity of wildfires across the state in recent
years, according to a staff report.
Supervisors Don Horsley and Warren Slocum sponsored
the proposed ban, which would not apply to most welding
devices, fireplace torches or devices used in agriculture,
which generally emit shorter flames. If approved, the ordi-
nance would not apply to fire districts or agencies involved
with fire prevention efforts, according to the report.
The report mentions companies have been selling the
flamethrowers and similar devices and promoting them as
entertainment despite the continued risk of fires. On its
website, Elon Musk’s The Boring Company reported sale of
20,000 “Not-A-Flamethrower” flamethrowers, which start-
ed shipping to customers in the spring.
Representatives of the Sheriff’s Office and county code
enforcement are slated to enforce the proposed ordinance
and violations will be considered infractions and a public
nuisance subject to possible citation, seizure and destruc-
tion of the device, according to the report.
Supervisors meet 9 a.m. Tuesday, Sept. 4, at 400 County
Center, Redwood City.
Man arrested after
trying to rob Daly City bank
A 43-year-old Rio Vista man was arrested after allegedly
trying to rob a bank in Daly City on Wednesday afternoon
while threatening that he had an explosive device, police
said.
THE DAILY JOURNAL
Daniel Mann was arrested following the report of a bank
robbery attempt at about 1:30 p.m. at the Bank of America
at 7395 Mission St., according to police.
Mann allegedly entered the bank and gave a note to a
teller saying that he had an explosive device and would use
it if he was not given money, police said.
The teller did not give any money to Mann, who fled the
bank and then allegedly tried to carjack a nearby motorist.
That attempt was unsuccessful and he ran away but was
located and arrested by officers several blocks away, accord-
ing to police.
Mann has been booked into San Mateo County Jail on
suspicion of bank robbery and other offenses, police said.
Air quality advisory issued
because of smoke expected in Bay
The Bay Area Air Quality Management District has issued
an air quality advisory for Friday through the Labor Day
holiday Monday because of smoke impacts expected in the
region from wildfires elsewhere in Northern California.
Offshore winds are expected to send smoke from the wild-
fires into the Bay Area on Friday and over the weekend,
according to the air district.
If residents smell smoke, they are advised to protect their
health by staying inside with windows and doors closed,
and to set air conditioning units and car vents to recirculate,
district officials said.
Elderly people, children, and people with respiratory
issues are particularly vulnerable to elevated air pollution
levels and should take extra precaution, according to the air
district.

WASHINGTON — U.S. consumer spending
rose a solid 0.4 percent in July, the sixth
straight month of healthy gains. At the same
time, a key gauge of inflation posted its
sharpest annual gain in six years, likely
keeping the Federal Reserve on track to keep
raising interest rates gradually.
The July spending gain, fueled by strong
job growth and tax cuts, followed a similar
0.4 percent rise in June, the government said
Thursday. Inflation, as measured by a barom-
eter closely watched by the Fed, rose 2.3 per-
cent for the 12 months that ended in July, the
fastest year-over-year increase since 2012.
Though the inflation figure exceeded the
Fed’s 2 percent target, its officials have said
they’re willing to tolerate slightly higher
inflation temporarily in light of a six-year
period when it fell short of the Fed’s 2 per-
cent goal. They are widely expected to keep
gradually raising their benchmark rate,
and called for their pay to be based on per-
formance and designed to recruit, retain and
reward “high-performing Federal employ-
ees and those with critical skill sets.”
At the same time, Trump planned during a
Friday appearance in Charlotte, North

Trump teases successor
to White House counsel
By Darlene Superville,
Ken Thomas and Zeke Miller
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — A day after announcing
the departure of his White House counsel,
President Donald Trump teased Thursday
that he’s excited about his choice for a
replacement but isn’t ready to share his
new lawyer’s name.
Trump said Wednesday on Twitter that
Don McGahn will leave in the fall. He has
been a consequential insider on Trump’s
legal team and a key figure in the adminis-
tration’s handling of the federal investiga-
tion into Russian election interference and
possible Trump campaign collusion.
“I am very excited about the person who
will be taking the place of Don McGahn as
White House Councel!” Trump tweeted
Thursday. He sent a later tweet that spelled
“counsel” correctly.
Trump also took a shot at reports that
McGahn had threatened to resign last year
if the president continued to press for the
removal of special counsel Robert Mueller
as head of the Russia investigation.
“I liked Don, but he was NOT responsible
for me not firing Bob Mueller or Jeff
Sessions. So much Fake Reporting and
Fake News!” Trump said, referring as well
to his attorney general, who recused him-
self from the investigation, much to the
president’s annoyance.
Trump said Thursday that the Russia
investigation was not a factor, “even a lit-
tle bit,” in his decision about McGahn’s
departure.
White House counselor Kellyanne
Conway said at the White House Thursday
that Trump will make the announcement
about McGahn’s successor. She offered no
timetable.
McGahn has done “a fantastic job as
White House counsel,” she said, mention-
ing his work on deregulation and the presi-
dent’s judicial nominees.
STATE/NATION
REUTERS
McGahn’s exit, which
has been expected for
some time, continues
the churn of top officials
as the administration
sets records for turnover
and the White House
struggles to fill key
vacancies.
Unlike some less-ami-
Don McGahn
able separations, how-
ever, Trump praised McGahn as “a really
good guy” who has done “an excellent
job.”
Trump said Wednesday that McGahn’s
departure had nothing to do with the
lawyer’s interviews with the special coun-
sel. Pressed by reporters, Trump said he had
approved the interviews and was uncon-
cerned about anything McGahn might tell
prosecutors.
“We do everything straight,” he said.
“We do everything by the book.”
The departure of Trump’s top lawyer will
hit one of the most critical — and yet least
visible — positions in the West Wing.
Besides dealing with Mueller’s investiga-
tion, McGahn has had important input on a
range of issues from policy to personnel to
national security.
He will remain at the White House until
after the expected Senate confirmation
vote for Supreme Court nominee Brett
Kavanaugh, Trump said
Emmet Flood, who joined Trump’s White
House in May as in-house counsel for the
Mueller probe, has been considered a lead-
ing candidate to replace him and has the
departing attorney’s support, two adminis-
tration officials said. They spoke on the
condition of anonymity to discuss person-
nel matters.
Asked about Flood on Wednesday, White
House press secretary Sarah Huckabee
Sanders said: “People like him. He’s super
well-respected around the building. But
there’s not a plan locked in place at this
point.”
Man charged with making death
threats over president editorials
By Alanna Durkin Richer
and Brian Melley
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES — A Los Angeles man upset
about The Boston Globe’s coordinated edito-
rial response to President Donald Trump’s
attacks on the news media was arrested
Thursday on charges he threatened to kill the
newspaper’s journalists, who he called an
“enemy of the people,” federal prosecutors
said.
Robert Chain’s phone calls to the Boston
newsroom started immediately after the
Globe appealed to newspapers across the
country to condemn what it called a “dirty war
against the free press,” prosecutors said. He
is accused of making 14 calls between Aug.
10 and Aug. 22.
On Aug. 16, the day scores of editorials
were published , Chain, 68, of the Encino
section of Los Angeles, told a Globe staffer
that he was going to shoot employees in the
head at 4 o’clock, according to court docu-
ments. That threat from a blocked phone
number prompted a police response and
increased security at the newspaper’s offices.
Chain said he would continue threatening
the Globe until it stops its “treasonous and
seditious” attacks on Trump, according to a
court complaint.
Several times, he called Globe employees
the “enemy of the people,” a characterization
of journalists that Trump has used repeatedly,
including in a tweet on Thursday before the

Asian-Americans in Harvard case
WASHINGTON — The Justice Department
on Thursday sided with Asian-American stu-
dents suing Harvard University over the Ivy
League school’s consideration of race in its
admissions policy, the latest step in the
Trump administration’s effort to encourage
race-neutral admissions practices.
The Justice Department said in a court fil-
ing Thursday that the school has failed to
demonstrate that it does not discriminate on
the basis of race and cited what it described
as “substantial evidence that Harvard is
engaging in outright racial balancing.”
The department’s “statement of interest”

Newsrooms have
received threats for years
and rarely do they result
in charges. However, sen-
sitivity has been height-
ened since a gunman with
a long-running grudge
against the Capital
Robert Chain Gazette newspaper in
Annapolis, Maryland,
killed five employees there in June.
Federal officials pledged to continue to go
after anyone who puts others in fear of their
lives. “In a time of increasing political
polarization, and amid the increasing inci-
dence of mass shootings, members of the
public must police their own political rheto-
ric. Or we will,” Massachusetts U.S. Attorney
Andrew Lelling said.
Federal prosecutors asked that Chain be
detained because of the seriousness of the
threats combined with the fact that more than
20 guns and hundreds of rounds of ammunition
were seized from his house. Some guns were in
plain sight, such as a shotgun by the front
door, while others were hidden, Assistant U.S.
Attorney Matt Rosenbaum said.
Rosenbaum acknowledged there was no
evidence Chain, who is retired from the inter-
national sales and trade business, had
planned to go to Boston. A federal magistrate
rejected claims that Chain, who has no crim-
inal record, was a flight risk or a danger that
required him to be held behind bars.

was in a case filed in 2014 by Students For
Fair Admission, which argues that one of
the world’s most prestigious universities
discriminates against academically strong
Asian-American applicants. Harvard fired
back, saying that it does not discriminate
and will fight to defend its right to use race
as a factor in admissions.
The Supreme Court permits colleges and
universities to consider race in admissions
decisions, but says it must be done in a nar-
rowly tailored way to promote diversity and
should be limited in time. Universities also
bear the burden of showing why their con-
sideration of race is appropriate.

Friends call John McCain hero,maverick
An Honor Guard carries the casket of U.S. Sen. John McCain out of the Arizona State Capitol to a memorial service.
What’s lost when the president can’t show up?
By Julie Pace
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — What’s lost when
the president of the United States can’t
— or won’t — show up?
As the remembrances for the late
Sen. John McCain shift from Arizona
to Washington the rest of this week,
President Donald Trump will be glar-
ingly missing. The McCain family
asked him to stay away from the four-
day tribute to the storied Republican
lawmaker. And even if they hadn’t, it’s
unlikely Trump would have been eager
to eulogize one of his fiercest critics.
But Trump’s absence is about more
than just a personal feud between two
dramatically different politicians. His
inability to seize the ceremonial, sym-

times of sorrow and joy, threatens to

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
PHOENIX — A former vice president, an NFL star and
other friends remembered Sen. John McCain as a “true
American hero” — and a terrible driver with a wicked sense
of humor and love of a good battle — at a crowded church
service Thursday for the maverick politician that ended to
the tune of Frank Sinatra’s “My Way.”
Addressing an estimated 3,500 mourn-
ers, former Vice President Joe Biden
recalled “the sheer joy that crossed his
face when he knew he was about to take
the stage of the Senate floor and start a
fight.”
Biden, a Democrat who was among the
fast friends the Republican senator made
across the aisle, said he thought of John McCain
McCain as a brother, “with a lot of fami-
ly fights.”
The service for the statesman, former
prisoner of war and two-time presiden-
tial candidate unfolded at North Phoenix
Baptist Church after a motorcade bearing
McCain’s body made its way from the
state Capitol past Arizonans waving
American flags and campaign-style
McCain signs.
Family members watched in silence as Joe Biden
uniformed military members removed
the flag-draped casket from a black hearse and carried it into
the church. McCain died Saturday of brain cancer at age 81.
McCain’s longtime chief of staff Grant Woods, a former
Arizona attorney general, drew laughs with a eulogy in
which he talked about McCain’s “terribly bad driving” and
his sense of humor, which included calling the Leisure
World retirement community “Seizure World.”
Woods also recalled the way McCain would introduce him
to new staff members by saying, “You’ll have to fire half of
them.”
The church’s senior pastor, Noe Garcia, pronounced
McCain “a true American hero.”
The service brought to a close two days of mourning for
the six-term senator and 2008 GOP presidential nominee in
his home state.
A motorcade then took McCain’s body to the airport,
where it was put aboard a military plane that flew to Joint
Base Andrews, Maryland, outside Washington ahead of a
lying-in-state at the U.S. Capitol on Friday, a service at the
Washington National Cathedral on Saturday, and burial at
the U.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland, on
Sunday.
Twenty-four sitting U.S. senators and four former sena-
tors attended the church service, according to McCain’s
office.
Neither Biden nor other speakers uttered President Donald
Trump’s name, but Biden made what some saw as a veiled
reference to the president when he talked about McCain’s
character and how he parted company with those who
“lacked the basic values of decency and respect, knowing
this project is bigger than yourself.”
Biden said McCain “could not stand the abuse of power
wherever he saw it, in whatever form, in whatever country.”
Dabbing his eyes at times, Biden also referred to his own
son’s death from cancer, saying of the disease, “It’s brutal,
it’s relentless, it’s unforgiving.” And he spoke directly to
McCain’s widow, Cindy McCain, in the front row: “You
were his ballast.”
At the end of the nearly 90-minute ceremony, McCain’s
casket was wheeled out of the church to “My Way,” in trib-
ute to a politician known for following his own path based
on his personal principles.
McCain clashed openly with Trump, who mocked McCain
for getting captured during the Vietnam War. Two White
House officials said McCain’s family had asked that Trump
not attend the funeral services.

Marijuana impairment standards long overdue
Santa Cruz Sentinel
M
aybe California Controller
Betty Yee will have better
luck than law enforcement
and editorial writers on making the
case for setting standards for driving
under the influence of marijuana.
Yee has at least gained attention
after being hurt last month in a car
crash caused by a 25-year-old driver
suspected of being under the influence
of pot.
Yee, who is still suffering from
injuries suffered in the crash, told
reporters that California’s legal pot
industry needs to stop complaining
about taxes and state and local regula-
tions and do something about stoned
drivers. Pot growers and sellers, she
notes, have a long adversarial history
with law enforcement, which may
make them reluctant to start advocat-
ing for new laws and tests regarding
pot impairment — but, she says, “peo-
ple are getting hurt. So deal with it.”
We hate to say “told you so,” espe-
cially about something as serious as
people getting killed or injured, but,
more stoned drivers on the road is
exactly what police and this newspa-
per warned would happen once recre-
ational marijuana was legalized by
state voters in 2016.
The driver who rear-ended the car Yee
was riding in with her husband — a
California Highway Patrol officer was
driving — and then hit it again, was
arrested for driving while intoxicated
and subsequently bailed out of jail.
Yee opposed Proposition 64, the
2016 pot measure, because of just this
issue, and says the industry should
work with law enforcement to develop
a test for unsafe levels of marijuana
impairment for drivers.

A window
for DACA renewals
Editor,
In February, I held a special town
hall in Half Moon Bay called “DACA
Diaries” to highlight the extraordinary
young Bay Area immigrants who came
to the United States as children and
received protection through Deferred
Action for Childhood Arrivals. Their
stories exemplify an undeniable truth:
DACA recipients are Americans in
every way except on paper.
Yet, hundreds of thousands of these
young immigrants could lose the
chance to renew their deferred status if
they do not apply soon.
Since the Trump administration cru-
elly and unceremoniously canceled
DACA in September 2017, federal
courts in California, New York and

collisions has been rising in recent
years, and so have fatalities.
The problem is that while police
have a legally defined limit for alcohol
found in a driver’s bloodstream, there
is no such defined level for marijuana.
The CHP has estimated that if current
rates of arrests for DUI continue there
could be a 70 percent increase in DUI
under the influence of marijuana alone
by year’s end in our region of
California.
Cops are well acquainted with the
smell of pot coming from cars they
stop. Officers often put these
motorists through field sobriety tests,
which the driver often passes. But if it
were a suspected drunken driver, the
cop would use a breathalyzer test to
confirm they were legally impaired by
alcohol.
No such measuring device exists for
pot.
And so, absent a definitive standard,
police officers have to make a judg-
ment call to determine if someone is
driving high and the final decision on
whether an arrested driver was impaired
is subjective, resting with a judge or
jury.
California, like other states that
have legalized marijuana, is relying at
present on drug recognition experts —
officers trained to conduct cognitive
tests and notice other physical signs
of drug-related impairment during a
vehicle stop — to determine if a driver
is intoxicated.
Law enforcement officials said they
believe these experts are more than
capable of determining impairment,
even without an objective standard. In
addition to those experts, the
California Highway Patrol has trained
injunctions forcing the administration
to continue processing renewal appli-
cations. Together, these court orders
opened a window for the over 800,000

San Diego police have been using

A banner effort
W
hen my wife mentioned she was interested in
helping coach my daughter’s AYSO team, it
made a lot of sense. No one I know knows
more about soccer than her, except maybe Nate.
She is a great player who understands the game. When
we have gone to professional or collegiate games, I’ve
noticed multiple times people around us listening in on
our conversation as she breaks down defenses, the game
and where the team is excelling or falling short. Because
of her, I know the Earthquakes are no good, the U.S.
Men’s National Team is a mess aside from that new kid,
and the U.S. Women’s National Team has been in desper-
ate need of a more solid midfield for a while now. One
time, as we got up for the halftime break during a Stanford
women’s game, a woman behind us asked if we were
returning because she enjoyed my wife’s commentary so
much. She knows the game.
Under 8 girls’ AYSO is a bit
different. But I have complete
confidence she will imbue the
girls with a good amount of
soccer knowledge. She is also
organized, fair-minded, kind,
dedicated and a hard worker, so
it appears she has all the char-
acteristics needed for a youth
soccer coach.
What is getting us is making
the banner. Apparently, all
teams must have a banner for
their team but there is limited
information on what such a
banner entails. I originally
envisioned something plastic and printed on with the
team name and maybe a logo but how to go about that I
have no idea. My wife said something about felt and glue,
which immediately confused me. Arts and crafts tend to
have that effect on me. Then maybe it’s just marker on
butcher paper, glued to wood poles — doable but prone to
being temporary. I know the banner is for the parade, but
not sure how long it is supposed to last.
I don’t recall having a banner when I was in AYSO. But
then my basic recollection entails drinking a large can of
7UP after the game. I didn’t go far in soccer.
I’m sure my wife will figure something out and it will be
amazing, but if anyone has any suggestions as to a quick
and easy way to make that banner, please send it my way.

A simple solution for the Ampex sign situation.
Stanford should spend a little bit of money and put the let-
ters up in a lobby somewhere on their new Redwood City
campus with a sign outlining the history of the sign and
the company’s history.
To those of you who may have not been privy to the sit-
uation, the planned removal has caused a bit of stir by
those who believe the sign marks an important piece of
the Peninsula’s history. There has been a wide effort to
figure out some way to save he sign or honor its legacy,
and I predict that something will be announced soon.
***
The decision to shut down a county park shuttle service
because of low ridership was bound to happen. Launched
two years ago with the idea of bringing residents from
East Palo Alto, east Menlo Park and North Fair Oaks over
to Edgewood and Wunderlich parks, the idea was worth-
while but pie in the sky. Maybe some might try it a few
times, but it wouldn’t be a regular thing. A better idea
would be reduce or eliminate the entry fee to the county’s
parks. While it is true that those without cars could use a
shuttle, most people have access to a car for a trip to a
county park like Flood Park, and would use such a car for
items like coolers or chairs for an extended stay.
Eliminating that $6 entry fee would be a way to invite
people in, and get them used to the park, and want to
return — with or without a car. The reduced or eliminated
fee doesn’t have to be every weekend, but maybe certain
ones, or during a certain month.
***
In the argument over whether California should adopt
universal health care, the basic underlying principle is
often lost. The goal has been stated that everyone, regard-
less of income or immigration status, should have access
to health care. They do now. Anyone can access health
care through our county health systems regardless of their
ability to pay or immigration status. If that is the goal,
more should be done to bolster our county health care sys-
tems and affiliated health insurance systems like the
Health Plan of San Mateo. If that means getting nonprofit
medical systems to pony up, so be it.
That should be job one. Trying to remake the entire
state’s health care system and eliminating private insur-
ance is only getting in the way of that primary goal.
Solve that, then let’s move forward on something else
that still allows workers, particularly union ones, to keep
their hard-earned health care benefits that includes private
insurance options.

China tariff talk knocks stocks lower

By Marley Jay
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — U.S. stocks skid-
ded late Thursday following a
report that the Trump administra-
tion could put tariffs on $200 bil-
lion in Chinese goods as early as
next week.
After a weak start, stocks fell
further after Bloomberg News said
the U.S. government was getting
ready to ramp up its trade dispute
with China. It has been threaten-
ing to tax $200 billion in Chinese
imports for several months,
which would represent a major
escalation in the trade fight.
Major exporters including
chemical companies and machin-
ery makers took sharp losses.

Machines suggest Gmail replies

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Google is toeing the line
between helping you save time and creeping
you out as it turns to machines to suggest
email replies on your behalf.
The customized auto-responses come in
the latest version of Gmail on the web and
expand on a feature already available on
Android devices and iPhones. They’re just
one more example of how artificial intelli-
gence is seeping into everyday online life,
whether it’s to tailor product recommenda-
tions or correct spelling.
So far the new feature has been drawing
mixed responses from users.
The new feature, called Smart Reply,
offers three short responses, like “It was
great seeing you too,” or “I’ll look into it.”
Unlike standard auto-replies when on vaca-
tion, for instance, these are customized to
an individual email based on its context. If
you select one, you can either send it imme-
diately or edit it before sending.
The responses are automatically created
using Google’s artificial intelligence sys-
tems. Humans aren’t reading people’s
emails, but machines are scanning them.
Although Google stopped scanning email
to target advertising in 2017, it still scans
them to filter out junk mail, identify
phishing scams and, now, to create sug-
gested replies. (Yahoo and AOL, both
owned by Verizon, still scan email for
advertising.)

Buffett says stocks remain
attractive even at current highs
OMAHA, Neb. — Billionaire Warren
Buffett says U.S. stocks remain attractive
investments even at today’s high prices
when compared to bonds or real estate.
Buffett reiterated his view that stocks are
the best long-term investment during an
interview on CNBC Thursday.
“If you had your choice between buying
and holding a 30-year bond for 30 years or
holding a basket of American stocks,
there’s just no question you’re going to do
better owning stocks,” he said.
Buffett took some of his own advice and

Microsoft tells contractors:
Give new parents paid leave
By Matt O’Brien
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Microsoft will begin requiring its contrac-
tors to offer their U.S. employees paid leave
to care for a new child.
It’s common for tech firms to offer gener-
ous family leave benefits for their own soft-
ware engineers and other full-time staff, but
paid leave advocates say it’s still rare to
require similar benefits for contracted workers
such as janitors, landscapers, cafeteria crews
and software consultants.
“Given its size and its reach, this is a unique
and hopefully trailblazing offering,” said
Vicki Shabo, vice president at the National
Partnership for Women and Families.
The new policy affects businesses with at
least 50 U.S.-based employees that do sub-
stantial work with Microsoft that involves
access to its buildings or its computing net-
work. It doesn’t affect suppliers of goods.
Contractors would have to offer at least 12
weeks of leave to those working with the
Redmond, Washington-based software giant;
the policy wouldn’t affect the contractors’
arrangements with other companies. Leave-
takers would get 66 percent of regular pay, up
to $1,000 weekly.
The policy announced Thursday rolls out
over the next year as the company amends its
contracts with those vendors. That may mean
some of Microsoft’s costs will rise to cover
the new benefits, said Dev Stahlkopf, the
company’s corporate vice president and gen-
eral counsel.
“That’s just fine and we think it’s well
worth the price,” she said.
Microsoft doesn’t disclose how many con-
tracted workers it uses, but it’s in the thou-
sands.
The new policy expands on Microsoft’s
2015 policy requiring contractors to offer
paid sick days and vacation.
Other companies such as Facebook have
also committed to improve contractor bene-
fits amid unionization efforts by shuttle driv-
ers, security guards and other contract work-
ers trying to get by in expensive, tech-fueled
regions such as the San Francisco Bay Area
and around Washington’s Puget Sound.
Facebook doesn’t guarantee that contract
workers receive paid parental leave, but pro-
vides a $4,000 new child benefit for new par-
ents who don’t get leave. A much smaller
California tech company, SurveyMonkey,
announced a paid family leave plan for its
contract workers earlier this year.

Mills VB resets for ’18

New coach, three freshmen join PAL Ocean Division perennial Vikings
By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Mills has long prided itself on being a
fundamental volleyball team.
Now, first-year head coach Mikey
Brogonia’s sqaud is looking for that spark.
The Vikings (1-1 overall) showed occa-
sional sparks Thursday in hosting a non-
league match with Moreau Catholic-
Hayward. But unlike last week’s season
opener — a four-set win over Galileo-SF —
Mills was overmatched by a Moreau Catholic
team that overloaded the front row with fire-
power in a 25-18, 25-17, 25-21 sweep.
“We’re very strong defensively and pass-
ing wise,” Brogonia said. “We’re working
very hard every day, trying to get a little
more physical at the net.”
Mills stands to learn a lot from Moreau
Catholic (1-1), a team that has advanced to
the North Coast Section playoffs for 12
straight years, and earned its first ticket to
the CIF state playoffs last season. The
Vikings have not seen the postseason since
2008.
More so, Moreau Catholic is certainly
physical at the net. And while the Vikings
took early leads in each of the final two
sets, they couldn’t contend with senior out-
side hitter Kendall Smith, who put on a clin-
ic from the left side with a career-high 17
kills.
“She did really well,” Mills junior oppo-
site Chloe Tam said. “She was able to place
them in spots where we weren’t and put them
away from my block, so I couldn’t get many
touches.”
Tam has a chance to be that front-row
spark. The 5-10 left-hander has a natural
power swing, and showed it off in small
doses Thursday. The junior totaled six kills,
sharing the team-high with senior outside
hitter Lexi Francisco.

Menlo grad enjoys big night for Niners
STAFF AND WIRE REPORT
SANTA CLARA — Roberto Aguayo
kicked a 26-yard field goal on the final
play of the exhibition season to lead
the Los Angeles Chargers to a 23-21
victory over the San Francisco 49ers
on Thursday night.
Aguayo is in a battle with Caleb
Sturgis to win the kicking job for the
Chargers (2-2) and got the opportunity
for the winner against San Francisco.
Coach Anthony Lynn had rotated his
kickers during the game, with both mak-
ing 36-yard field goals and extra points
before Aguayo got the final chance after
a 63-yard kick return by Detrez Newsome
set up the winning drive.
The kick spoiled a storybook night
for San Francisco’s Jack Heneghan.
Heneghan — a graduate of Menlo
School in 2014 — was signed as an
undrafted free agent out of Dartmouth
as a camp arm for the Niners (1-3),
joining the franchise his father, Lal,
used to work for as a lawyer.
Heneghan never got the chance to
take snaps in team drills in practice
this summer or in the three exhibition
games. But with most of the regulars
sitting out Thursday, coach Kyle
Shanahan gave him a chance and
Heneghan made the most of it. He went
8 for 9 for 58 yards and ran twice for 17
yards to lead the two TD drives.
Jeff Wilson scored on a 2-yard run and
Jeremy McNichols had a 6-yard TD with
2:58 to play.
Cardale Jones threw a 5-yard touch-
down pass to Andre Patton and Terrell
Watson scored on a 4-yard run on the
final play of the first half for the
Chargers.

Warriors’ West announces his retirement

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
OAKLAND — David West, a key big man
and snazzy passer who had a knack for pro-
viding a timely lift off the bench during the
Golden State Warriors’ past two champi-
onship seasons, retired Thursday.
West’s Twitter announcement — one day
after his 38th birthday — wasn’t a surprise as
he made it clear he would take some time after
the team’s latest title run to contemplate
calling it a career.
“I am humbled and thankful for the support
of my family, friends, coaches, teammates,
organizations, and fans throughout this
experience,” said West, the 18th overall draft
pick by the Hornets in 2003 out of Xavier.
He left the Spurs following the 2015-16
season for a chance to chase a championship
with the Warriors, and wound up winning his
first career title and then a second one this
past June.
“David was a consummate professional
throughout his entire career and was a huge

Sequoia holds a 4-3 advantage in the
last seven.
“You can’t ignore (the immensity
of this game),” said Sequoia head
coach Rob Poulos, who is in his 10th
season with the Cherokees. “But it
depends on where a kid in from. We
draw from San Carlos, Redwood City,
East Palo Alto. Some of those guys,
you ask them, it’s Carlmont. Other
kids will say its Woodside. Other say,
‘M-A. We want M-A again.’”
It’s been quite a start to 2018 for the
Cherokees. They opened their season
with their annual out-of-town road
trip, heading down to the Orange
County coast and dropping a 30-13
decision to Newport Harbor.
Now, they go on the road again for
a rivalry game.
“It’s a crazy start to the year,”
Poulos said.
The good news for Poulos this
week is he will know what to expect
from Woodside when the Cherokees
take the field. Poulos and his staff had
no idea what to expect from Newport
Harbor because it had a new coach that
the school plucked from the junior
college ranks and they could get no
information on what his style was.
“It was a weird game to play. …
Because the head coach came from a
JC, we didn’t have any film. I’ve
never scheduled a game and never
seen what a team does,” Poulos said.
“We found one of his JC games online
from the previous year. We just had to
decide what he would carry with him
to a new place. I did latch onto some
nuggets.”
Poulos passed that information to
his defense and while they did make
typical first-game mistakes, the
Cherokees’ defense played relatively
well. They came up with three inter-
ceptions and blocked a punt that
McKinley Desbrisay recovered in the
end zone. They also stopped the
Sailors on fourth down twice.
Now if Sequoia can just get it’s
offense going. Implementing a new
triple-option, it may take a while for
the offense to get comfortable. They
had a hard time doing much against
Newport Harbor as Jesse Carthy was
the team’s leading rusher with 34
yards and a touchdown on nine car-
ries.
“Offensively, we started off with
some good [plays] and they made
adjustments that really stymied what
we were trying to do,” Poulos said.
“Southern California football is big-
boy football.”
Woodside, on the other hand, is
coming off a huge win, 41-6 over
South City — it’s first since a 47-46
win over Warriors Oct. 21, 2016. Last
year, the Wildcats were 0-9 when it
forfeited its final game because of a
lack of players.
So far, this year is way different.
“We tried not to make such a big
deal (about snapping a 12-game los-
ing streak),” Andrews said. “We’re in
a much better situation talent-wise
and depth-wise. We played a great
game.”
Quarterback Brody Crowley was
nearly perfect for the Wildcats last
week, hitting on 4 of 5 passes for 111
yards and a touchdown. David Silk
returned a kickoff 88 yards for a score,
while Nathan Yoho led the ground
attack with 73 yards on just eight car-
ries.
“We were able to spread the ball
around really well. Five different
players scored a touchdown,”
Andrews said. “Defensively, we really
ran to the ball well. We didn’t give the
(South City) offense much space at
all.”

Rams are NFC West favorites
By Josh Dubow
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SANTA CLARA — The Los Angeles Rams have
gone from one of the NFL’s biggest surprises to one
of the top Super Bowl favorites in just one year.
The Rams didn’t rest after an impressive turnaround
campaign in coach Sean McVay’s
first season, bringing in an
impressive offseason haul led by
three former All-Pros on defense in
defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh
and cornerbacks Marcus Peters and
Aqib Talib, along with big-play
receiver Brandin Cooks.
It’s perhaps the most talent added
Sean McVay in one offseason since the San
Francisco 49ers brought in Deion
Sanders, Ken Norton Jr., Rickey Jackson and Richard
Dent 24 years ago and ended up as Super Bowl champs.
The newcomers join a roster that features a promis-
ing young quarterback in Jared Goff, an elite running
back in Todd Gurley, a stout offensive line led by left
tackle Andrew Whitworth — and perhaps Defensive
Player of the Year Aaron Donald, who held out for a
second straight training camp but could be back for
the start of the season.
The Rams figure to be challenged most in the NFC
West by a rejuvenated San Francisco team that won
the final five games last year after Jimmy Garoppolo
took over as quarterback.
Seattle still has Russell Wilson but few other key
pieces from the 2013 Super Bowl team, and Arizona
has three of the division’s top players in receiver
Larry Fitzgerald, cornerback Patrick Peterson and
running back David Johnson, who is coming back
from a wrist injury.
STABLE OFFENSE
For all the big changes on defense for the Rams,
they predictably kept things very stable on offense
after going from worst to first in the NFL in scoring
in the initial year under McVay.
Los Angeles brings back 10 of 11 starters on
offense, with the only change at receiver where
Cooks replaced Sammy Watkins. It’s a far cry from
last year when the Rams broke in two new offensive
linemen and a new receiver around Goff, who was get-
ting ready for his first full season as an NFL starter in
a brand new offense.
This team clearly has big-play potential. Cooks is
one of the league’s best deep threats and Gurley led
the NFL in yards from scrimmage (2,093) and TDs
(19) last season, earning him the rare big-money
contract as a running back.
JIMMY G
The 49ers fortunes changed almost immediately
after acquiring Garoppolo at last year’s trade deadline.
A team that started 2017 with nine straight losses fin-
ished with five straight wins after Garoppolo took
over as starter.
He completed 67.4 percent of his passes last sea-
son, averaging 8.8 yards per attempt with seven TDs,
five interceptions and a 96.2 rating to improve to 7-
0 in his career as a starter. His 308.4 yards passing
per game in his five starts also would have led the
league had he played a full season.
The Niners added Jerick McKinnon as a versatile
running back but have some questions on defense,
where they are hoping Richard Sherman can get back
to his pre-injury level as a shutdown cornerback, and
someone can provide an outside pass rush to comple-
ment defensive tackle stud DeForest Buckner.
QB SHUFFLE
There have been big changes in Arizona with quar-
terback Carson Palmer retired and coach Bruce Arians
moving from the sideline to the broadcast booth.
But the biggest deal for the Cardinals this year is the

Federer beats heat, Paire Old is new in AFC West
to advance in U.S. Open
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Roger Federer says his
favorite drinks are cold water and a sparkling
glass of champagne. Both could be on tap at
the U.S. Open: Federer needed a few swigs of
water on another steamy
day at the Open and he
played like a former cham-
pion set to uncork a cele-
bratory bottle of bubbly.
“I don’t like warm
drinks, let’s put it that
way,” Federer said, laugh-
ing.
Federer’s coolness on
Roger Federer the court belied another
day where players needed
cooling towels as much as their rackets.
Federer, a five-time U.S. Open champion, had
steeled himself for the heat by changing up
his routine — he made an early trip to New
York to prep his game in the sweltering sun.
“I felt like it’s maybe one of these years
where it could be hot,” Federer said Thursday.
“I had the plan to go to Dubai first, where it’s
extremely hot. I didn’t want to be away from
the family. I changed plans and said, ‘Let’s go

The case hinges on whether owners
worked together rather than decided individ-
ually to not sign Kaepernick.
A similar grievance is still pending by
unsigned safety Eric Reid, who played with
Kaepernick in San Francisco and joined in
the protests.

early to America and prepare over here in the
conditions that I’m actually going to see dur-
ing the Open.”’
Federer was crisp in a 7-5, 6-4, 6-4 win over
Benoit Paire in and made it 18 of 18 lifetime in
the second round of the U.S. Open. Up next,
Federer plays No. 30 seed Nick Kyrgios on
Saturday.
“Not a bad performance by any means by
me,” Federer said.
He may have skipped humility in the humid-
ity but it was tough argue against the No. 2
seed. Federer, who was forced to clarify a joke
about retirement, isn’t going away with a
sixth title in sight.
Federer has eased up on his schedule, saying
he no longer wanted to just “play, play, play.”
But when he does, there are still few better on
the hard court. And his plan to pass on Dubai
— where temps this week hit 110 degrees —
for the breezy 90s in New York could be a fac-
tor in how far he goes.
“If you train in the cold all the time, all of a
sudden it hits you, the humidity and heat,” he
said. “You’re just not ready. I don’t care how fit
you are, what you’re used to, the humidity can
really get to you. I think that was a good
choice.”
Meanwhile, the league and players union
still haven’t resolved whether players will
be punished this season if they choose to
kneel or demonstrate during the national
anthem.
Owners approved a policy requiring play-
ers to stand if they are on the sideline during
the national anthem, allowing them to stay
off the field if they wish.
But the league and union put that on hold
after the Miami Dolphins faced backlash for
classifying the protests as conduct poten-
tially detrimental to the team — putting
players at risk of fines or suspensions.

whose 2017 season ended with an injury in
the opener. Johnson is healthy again, and if
he can get back to the form with which he
ranked second in the NFL with 2,118 yards

plenty of pressure off the quarterback.
Oft-injured Sam Bradford begins the year
as starter, but he has only played 80 games
in eight seasons. He has torn the anterior
cruciate ligament in his left knee twice, and
another left knee injury wiped out nearly all
of his 2017 season in Minnesota.
But Bradford is likely only a stopgap. The

defense. The Chiefs have Dee Ford and Justin
Houston to cover warts on their defense.
Oakland has Bruce Irvin and — maybe — Khalil
Mack, who wants a long-term contract.
LACK OF MACK
When Gruden gave up his TV gig to return
to the sideline for the first time in a decade,
he quickly jettisoned punter Marquette King
in a surprising move. King wasted no time
in signing with Denver, fueled in part by the
revenge factor.
King said he never had a chance to speak
with Gruden before getting jettisoned in
Oakland.
“I just saw him on car commercials and
stuff,” King said. “I get to see him two times
a year.”
Gruden didn’t just give the silent treat-
ment to King but also to his star pass rusher
as Mack held out for a long-term contract.
Mack skipped the Raiders’ offseason pro-
gram, all of training camp and the entire
exhibition season. Whether he reports
before the start of the regular season
remains to be seen.
“I don’t want to put any timetable on it,”
Gruden said. “This has obviously been a
long a process that has been grueling for
both parties and fans and me personally.
We’re just hoping we can get him in here.”
Pete Carroll the past few years. Seattle has
posted six straight seasons of top two fin-
ishes in the division and winning records,
missing the playoff only last year. But
much of the core of the team that went to
back-to-back Super Bowls in the 2013 and
‘14 seasons is gone.
Defensive end Michael Bennett was trad-
ed, cornerback Richard Sherman was cut and
wound up with the archrival 49ers, tight end
Jimmy Graham left as a free agent and defen-
sive stars Cliff Avril and Kam Chancellor
have had career-ending injuries. Even safety
Earl Thomas’ status is in doubt as he has
held out all offseason in hopes of getting a
new contract.
While star power remains led by Wilson,
receiver Doug Baldwin and linebacker
Bobby Wagner, the rest of the roster likely
has too many holes for the Seahawks to be
able to challenge the top teams in the NFC.

And while local officials who fought for
years against the amendment claim their
authority on the matter is limited, John
Darmanin is one of the residents who ques-
tioned their commitment to opposing
FEMA.
“They want to make it look like they are
championing the residents of San Bruno’s
best interests, but they are not, ” said
Darmanin, who was one of the dozens of
residents who attended the meeting.
Darmanin maintained reservations about
the extent to which city and regional offi-
cials went in their joint effort to block the
decision by FEMA to include much of the
Belle Air neighborhood in the federal flood
hazard zone.
“I just didn’t like how they tried to placate
everyone,” said Darmanin.
Jimmy Tan, San Bruno Public Works
director, said he can relate to the frustra-
tions raised by Darmanin and a handful of
other like-minded residents.
“I can totally understand. I’m upset too in
a way, because this is something I’ve been

LOCAL
working on. And it is unfortunate that this
is the situation,” he said.
The discussion comes after years of fight-
ing against the maps as city officials have
worked since 2014 to propose alternatives
to the alignments offered by the federal
agency. The boundaries are determined by
revisions from FEMA initiated in 2012,
according to coastal hazard analyses.
Tan has said officials even hired a consult-
ant who arrived at different findings than
FEMA as it relates to potential flood
threats, and continuously appealed rejec-
tions issued by the federal agency.
Ultimately though, the appeals process
ran its course and officials completed the
entire slate of options available to contest
the government’s decision. Following a
final appeal being overruled earlier this
year, San Bruno resigned from the fight,
clearing the way for establishment of the
federal maps.
San Mateo County Supervisor Dave Pine,
whose district includes San Bruno, agreed
that nothing else could be done to prevent
the seemingly inevitable.
“The advocacy was very vigilant on
behalf of the neighbors and it was an out-
come that none of us hoped for,” said Pine,
who attended the Monday meeting as well.
Local governments in the Bay Area are
frequently at the mercy of the federal agency
Rain or Shine
that outlines flood maps and aims to
increase insurance coverage for those who
might be at risk of an extreme storm.
To that end, in San Mateo, officials have
moved toward flood protections such as
improvements to the city’s levee and two
water pumps in an effort to address the con-
cerns of those on the city’s Bayfront saddled
with hefty insurance premiums following
FEMA redrawing flood maps.
Foster City residents also recently passed
a $90 million tax measure designed to
enhance flood protections following the
federal agency determining that the city’s
existing levees were inadequate to protect
residents. Meanwhile, South San Francisco
officials recently adopted revised maps.
San Bruno is unique in its placement
amidst the flood map conversation, as San
Francisco International Airport consumes
the entire nearby shoreline. As a result, the
city is exempt from considering establish-
ing a special district financing protections.
For his part, Darmanin suggested officials
should continue the fight by filing a lawsuit
to protect residents. Tan though said such an
effort would need to be launched by the San
Bruno City Council, while Pine said he
believes the fight is lost.
“I think we are at the end of the road for
any appeal process or effort to change
FEMA’s mind,” he said.

Rather than pursue a legal battle, Pine
said those in San Bruno would be better
served turning their attention to collaborat-
ing with airport and other local officials to
mitigate existing flood risks.
FEMA claims South San Francisco’s
Navigable Slough also contributes to a por-
tion of the risk as the tributary to Colma
Creek which flows under Highway 101 and
South Airport Boulevard could flood too.
“The FEMA process does certainly spring
us into urgency to make changes needed to
remove residents from the flood zone,” Pine
said. If all the flood hazards are removed,
Tan said officials can petition federal offi-
cials to revise and remove residents from
the map.
Pine also added concerned residents
should purchase flood insurance at reduced
rates while available before the new maps
are approved in October, which will result
in premiums becoming even more expen-
sive.
For Darmanin though, he noted the sig-
nificant burden likely placed on the neigh-
borhood residents through the mandated
insurance purchase.
“The reality is that these people are
absolutely going to be facing unexpected
flood insurance premiums and when you are
on a fixed income, that means a lot,” he
said.

Krasinski tackles terror,
career shift in ‘Jack Ryan’
By Lynn Elber
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES — John
Krasinski comes across in
conversation as a disarming
match to his screen image, the
sort of easy-going, decent guy
he played on TV’s “The
Office” and in the romantic
comedy “Away We Go.”
Make that his former image.
In a burst of creative versatil-
ity, he’s fashioned himself
into an acclaimed film direc-
tor with “A Quiet Place” (in
which he plays opposite wife
Emily Blunt) and muscular
heroes in the movie “13
Hours: The Secret Soldiers of
Benghazi” and the new
Amazon Prime Video series
“Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan,”
debuting Friday.
In low-key style, Krasinski
is proving that expectations
are to be ignored. Who could
have predicted that gangly,
deskbound Jim of “The
Office” would be hunting
Middle Eastern terrorists as
fledgling CIA analyst Ryan,
or that the latest iteration of
Clancy’s big-canvas work
would arrive — cinematically
intact — on the small screen?
Such boundary-busting can
be traced back to Krasinski’s
2005-13 “Office” days, in the
sitcom that he considered
“the best thing out there,
movie or television.”
“I felt so proud to be a part

You will find that the purple cabbage, carrots, sweet peppers and onion are the perfect base
for a veggie slaw that is dressed with barbecue flavors and a hint of smoky Pancetta and
sweetness from white raisins.
Brightly colored coleslaw
that can stand up to ribs
By Elizabeth Karmel
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
When hosting a backyard barbecue, it is
easy to decide to make ribs because everyone
loves them. They are one of those universal
foods. If you eat meat, chances are you love
pork ribs.
But it is a little harder to decide on the
sides. Coleslaw and potato salad are the two
most common barbecue sides with coleslaw
being more prevalent. But how many of us
leave that coleslaw untouched? I know I
have. Even though I am firmly entrenched in
the coleslaw camp, so many versions are
lackluster. I love a classic coleslaw with
fried chicken or a vinegar-dressed slaw with
my pulled pork, but ribs beg for something a
little more complex, colorful and assertive.
Last week, I smoked ribs for some of my
very good “food” friends and I wanted to
make a side dish that they hadn’t had this
summer. I asked my sister, Mary Pat, what
she thought would go well with my menu of
saucy barbecue ribs, cheddar-jalapeno corn-
bread, and my apple-cider dressed cucumber
salad. She reminded me of this brightly col-
ored veggie coleslaw. I used to make it all the
time, but somehow it fell out of rotation. I
am so glad to be re-acquainted with this old
friend.
I originally created this Confetti Coleslaw
to go with a meaty chili, but it is the perfect
side dish for ribs. It is vibrant and pleasing
to the eye, it is chock full of veggies, and the
dressing is spiced with cumin, paprika and
cilantro which are perfect companions to rib
spice-rub that almost always includes cumin
and paprika.
It takes a fair amount of chopping so leave
yourself enough time to put it together. You
will find that the purple cabbage, carrots,
sweet peppers and onion are the perfect base
for a veggie slaw that is dressed with barbe-
cue flavors and a hint of smoky Pancetta and
sweetness from white raisins. I love how the
hearty slaw echoes the smoky sweet flavors
WEEKEND JOURNAL
of my barbecue-sauced ribs. If you don’t feel
like making ribs, it is equally delicious with
chicken, grilled salmon, a burger or chili.
It’s the perfect side to celebrate the end of
summer and ring in the fall!
CONFETTI COLESLAW
Servings: 10-12
Start to finish: 4 hours (20 minutes active)
4 ounces diced pancetta or bacon
1 red cabbage (about 3 pounds) cored and
shredded into 1/8-inch wide strips
4 medium-large carrots, peeled and shred-
ded
1 small yellow bell pepper, diced
1 small red bell pepper, diced
1 small-to-medium Vidalia onion, diced
2/3cup golden raisins
1/2cup good quality mayonnaise
1/2 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 generous teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon paprika
1/3cup minced fresh cilantro
1 teaspoon fine grain sea salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
Cook pancetta in a heavy skillet until
crisp. Drain and reserve cooked bacon.
Reserve a few tablespoons of the pancetta
drippings.
In a large mixing bowl, combine cabbage,
carrots, peppers, onions and raisins; toss
well.
In a small bowl, mix reserved pancetta
drippings together with mayonnaise and
sour cream until smooth. Whisk in mustard,
cumin, paprika and cilantro. Season dress-
ing with salt and pepper. Add more to taste.
Pour dressing over slaw mixture, tossing
well to coat evenly. Reserve the cooked
pancetta to mix in just before serving.
Transfer to a serving bowl. Refrigerate for at
least 4 hours or overnight to let the flavors
marry.
Before serving, re-mix coleslaw, and
sprinkle with the pancetta. Serve chilled or
slightly above room temperature.
Shrimp go wild with garlic,
jalapenos, cumin, cayenne
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Jolts of grill flavor and spicy heat can
enhance the delicately sweet and briny fla-
vor of shrimp, but it’s easy to overdo it.
Most recipes overcook the shrimp and fin-
ish them in a bath of mouth-numbing sauce;
we wanted juicy shrimp with a smoky crust
and chili flavor that was more than just
superficial.
To achieve this, we sprinkled one side of
the shrimp with sugar to promote browning
and grilled this side for a few minutes. Then
we flipped the skewers to finish gently
cooking on the cooler side of the grill.
We created a flavorful marinade with
pureed jalapenos, garlic, cumin, and
cayenne to give our shrimp skewers a spicy,
assertive kick, and then set some aside to
double as a sauce. Butterflying the shrimp
before marinating and grilling them opened
up more shrimp flesh for the marinade and
finishing sauce to flavor. We also packed
the shrimp very tightly onto the skewers so
they would cook more slowly.

You will need four 14-inch metal skewers

1 teaspoon grated lime zest plus 5 table-

per pound), peeled and deveined
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1 tablespoon minced fresh cilantro
Process all ingredients in food processor
until smooth, about 15 seconds. Reserve 2
tablespoons marinade; transfer remaining
marinade to medium bowl.
Pat shrimp dry with paper towels. To but-
terfly shrimp, use paring knife to make
shallow cut down outside curve of shrimp.
Add shrimp to bowl with marinade and toss
to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30
minutes or up to 1 hour.
• For a charcoal grill: Open bottom vent
completely. Light large chimney starter
filled with charcoal briquettes (6 quarts).
When top coals are partially covered with
ash, pour evenly over half of grill. Set
cooking grate in place, cover, and open lid
vent completely. Heat grill until hot, about
5 minutes.
• For a gas grill: Turn all burners to high,
cover, and heat grill until hot, about 15
minutes. Leave all burners on high.
Thread marinated shrimp onto four 14-
inch metal skewers. (Alternate direction of
each shrimp as you pack them tightly on
skewer to allow about a dozen shrimp to fit
snugly on each skewer.) Sprinkle 1 side of
skewered shrimp with sugar. Place shrimp
skewers sugared side down on hotter side of
grill (covered if using gas) and cook until
lightly charred, 3 to 4 minutes.
Flip skewers and move to cooler side of
grill (if using charcoal) or turn all burners
off (if using gas) and cook, covered, until
other side of shrimp is no longer translu-
cent, 1 to 2 minutes. Using tongs, slide
shrimp into clean medium bowl and toss
with reserved marinade. Sprinkle with
cilantro and serve.

Mussels and fennel combine to make a winning pasta dish
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Don’t be intimidated by mussels; they’re
easier to prepare than you think and they
make a great weeknight option. The mus-
sels here are cooked in a flavorful broth that
becomes a light sauce for the pasta.
The addition of fresh tarragon underscores
the anise flavor of the sauteed fennel in the
sauce. When cleaning the mussels, throw
out any that won’t close or have broken
shells. You can substitute 1 pound of
spaghetti or bucatini for the linguine, if
desired.

ever to find on TV with the explosion of

The specific attraction of “Jack Ryan,”
his first series since “The Office,” was both
its form and content.
With the debut season’s eight episodes
(filming on season two is already under-
way), it’s possible to reimagine and delve
into the title role in ways not possible in a
time-constrained movie, Krasinski said.
And then there’s the character himself,

imagine becoming Ryan, a man who “used
his brain and his instincts and was able to
do extraordinary things.”
Casting the part was critical, said series
creators and executive producers Carlton
Cuse (“Lost”) and Graham Roland (“Mile
22”).
“Carlton told me, ‘We could write the best
show either of us have ever written, but if
don’t have the right guy playing Jack Ryan
the show is just not going to work, ’”
Roland recalled. A winning “everyman qual-
ity” needed for Ryan came across in
Krasinski’s work in “The Office,” they said,
but it was “13 Hours” that cinched the deal.
“We felt, wow, this is the guy who not
only has (Ryan’s) charm and intelligence ...
but he also had the physicality to be an
action hero,” Roland said.
The Amazon series rolls the videotape
back to Ryan’s early days with the CIA in an
original story by Cuse and Roland. Viewers
meet him butting heads with new boss
James Greer (Wendell Pierce), a vice admiral
and top-ranking CIA official in the late
guarding shared, public spaces,” SFMTA’s
Director of Transportation Ed Reiskin said
in a statement.
The permits come after the city’s Board of
Supervisors unanimously passed legisla-
tion in April, requiring all companies oper-
ating powered scooters in the city to seek
permits. The legislation was in response to
a handful of scooter companies that had
deployed hundreds of dockless scooters
throughout San Francisco in late March.
One of those companies, Lime, formerly
called LimeBike, issued a statement
Thursday upon learning its application had
not been selected for the one-year pilot per-
mit program.
over medium heat until shimmering. Add
pepper flakes, fennel, and onion and cook
until softened, about 5 minutes. Add toma-
toes with their juice and wine, bring to
simmer, and cook until sauce reduces
slightly, about 10 minutes.
While sauce cooks, add pasta and 1
tablespoon salt to boiling water and cook,
stirring often, until al dente. Reserve 1/2
cup cooking water, then drain pasta and
return it to pot.
When sauce is reduced slightly, stir mus-
sels into sauce, cover, and steam until
fully open, 6 to 7 minutes. Using slotted
spoon, transfer mussels to bowl, discard-
ing any that do not open; cover to keep
warm.
Turn off heat, add pasta to sauce, along
Clancy’s works but in career-rebuilding
mode here.
“Jack Ryan” also stars Abbie Cornish as
Cathy Mueller, Ryan’s future wife but for
now an epidemiologist who catches his eye
at a party; Ali Suliman as Suleiman, a terror-
ist with a tragic family history, and Dina
Shihabi as his wife, Hanin.
Whatever changes have been introduced
don’t clash with Ryan’s steadfastness, said
Roland, describing it at odds with the “age
of the anti-hero” such as Claire Danes’ trou-
bled character in “Homeland.”
“It felt really novel in a weird way to come
back to a classic hero, a hero whose morali-
ty is his strength,” he said. It’s not just
Ryan who’s the good guy: The CIA also
wears a white hat, unlike other dramas
depicting the agency as what Roland called
a “cabal” filled with back-stabbers.
“We did an extensive amount of research,
spent a lot of time with military people,
with former and current members of the
intelligence community, and we witnessed
such a high level of professionalism,” Cuse
said. “We had a great appreciation for the
role that these people play in keeping us
“Today’s decision is disappointing. San
Franciscans deserve an equitable and trans-
parent process when it comes to transporta-
tion and mobility. Instead, the SFMTA has
selected inexperienced scooter operators
that plan to learn on the job, at the expense
of the public good,” the statement said.
Lime, which already operates in 10 other
Bay Area cities, also in the statement
accused the SFMTA’s permit process of
being faulty.
“The SFMTA’s handling of the dockless
bike and scooter share programs has lacked
transparency from the beginning. We call
on the Mayor’s Office and Board of
Supervisors to hold the SFMTA accountable
for the
flawed per-
mi t t i n g
process.

That said, the producers reject the possi-
bility that the show might be seen as a
rebuke to President Donald Trump’s criti-
cism of U.S. intelligence agencies and his
public war of words with some former
chiefs.
“Our intention was to entertain people
and to give Clancy fans the portrayal of the
military and the CIA that they remember
from the books and from the early movies,”
Roland said.
Krasinski, a Massachusetts native whose
extended family has a deep record of mili-
tary service, salutes the approach. His said
his research for the series gave him a new-
found respect for the CIA and those in it.
“I remember somebody there saying, ‘You
know, politics come and go, but it’s the
soul of America that we’re on the front line
for,’” he said. “I’m certainly one of those
people that grew up with incredible parents
who reminded us to be very, very proud of

this decision and will look for new ways to
serve the people of San Francisco.”
Earlier this month, Mayor London Breed
echoed similar sentiments when, in a letter
to Reiskin, she said she was “seriously con-
cerned about the lack of . . . an opaque
process to select scooter pilot permit recip-
ients.”
The SFMTA, however, has maintained
that its permit process was a fair one and, to
prove that, has made available information
about the process and its applicants at
sfmta.com/sharedscooters.
Under the one-year pilot program, the
SFMTA will allow no more than 625 scoot-
ers per company within the first six
months. After that, the companies can
increase each of their fleets to as many as
2,500 scooters.
During the pilot period, SFMTA officials
said they would be evaluating results and
make adjustments accordingly.

FIRE
Continued from page 1
destroyed over 2,000 structures and
killed 12 people, including six first
responders.
As of mid-August, 12,500 firefight-
ers from all over the country and as far
away as Australia and New Zealand were
battling 11 wildfires across the state.
San Mateo County fire departments
sent three strike teams — each com-
prised of five engines manned by four
firefighters — plus 80 additional first
responders in overhead positions,
mostly to the Carr and Mendocino
Complex fires.
One of those strike teams was led by
Emil Picchi, battalion chief of the
Woodside Fire Protection District. He
and his crew arrived in Redding the day
after the Carr Fire started.
“These were relatively new subdivi-
sions and well-manicured houses like
any Bay Area community and this fire
came through and picked and chose
what it wanted and eliminated more
than it kept,” he said. “It was as if you
just removed one neighborhood in
Foster City.”
As the fire approached one neigh-
borhood, Picchi’s team searched each
home to see if it was inhabited. An
emergency evacuation means people
can’t come back to their homes while
the fire is burning, but it doesn’t force
them to leave.
A placard is placed on each property
outlining conditions, access points or
water sources, such as a pool, to
inform other firefighters who might be
assigned to defend that home once the
fire hits.
The most important thing is to clear
out any vegetation or debris from the
perimeter of a structure, he said.
“The fire was starting to creep over
the ridges as we were preparing homes
and it did hit that following morning,”
he said. After it hit, all that was left on
many properties was a foundation with
a pile of ash on top. “You couldn’t
even imagine what the house looked
like prior.”
Brutal conditions
Picchi saw conditions while fight-
ing the Carr Fire he’d never seen before
in his 26 years of being deployed to
fight wildfires throughout the state.
“Rarely have I seen trees in a wildfire
uprooted and thrown the way they were
thrown,” he said. “You’ll see trees burn
down through the core and topple over,
but there were huge trees completely
uprooted and swung across the road.”
Steve Stanovcak, a captain in
Picchi’s strike team, said it wasn’t just
the fire wreaking havoc on Redding
neighborhoods.
“We’re in neighborhoods and [street]
light poles are down, trees snapped
wind damage,” he said. “I think the
wind was created by the fire. It was
storm damage, I’d never seen that
before.”
After the fire hit a neighborhood,
Picchi’s team searched through the
remains to extinguish smoldering hot
spots. The work entails a lot of hik-
ing, digging and hard, physical labor
in brutal conditions. They’re covered
in multiple layers, carrying some 20
pounds of gear and nearly a gallon of
water, plus hand tools and chain saws.
It was 112 degrees during the day, 98
degrees at night and the sky was
almost always filled with smoke.
Stanovcak said there was about a
quarter mile of visibility in Redding
and he barely saw blue skies or the sun
in his nine days there.
Even back at camp, only the air con-
ditioned-trailers where firefighters
slept offered reprieve from the smoke.
Those trailers have three levels and
can accommodate 45 people.
Stanovcak said it’s like sleeping on a
submarine, which is a big upgrade
from sleeping outside in the smoke
and heat as they often have fighting
wildfires in past years.
Salvage work
Firefighters also spent much of their
time helping homeowners salvage
whatever they could.
“Everything was significant to
them. Because they’ve lost so much
they’re happy to find the smallest
things,” Stanovcak said.
One elderly man, a Vietnam veteran,
lost everything but a collection of
river rocks he wanted to save.
Stanovcak and Picchi along with their
entire strike team spent some 20 min-
utes helping load the rocks into a
truck.
“He and his wife were trying to haul
the river rocks by themselves and
there was a couple of tons of it. He
saved up for over three years to buy
those rocks and he wanted them for
when he’d rebuild the house,” Picchi
said. “This man was sitting there cry-
ing because we stopped to offer some
help. We’re here to help, it doesn’t
matter what the job is. If we can make
it a little better out of a lousy situa-
tion, OK let’s do it.”
The Carr Fire is now almost entirely
contained, as is the Mendocino
Complex fire, which was officially the
largest in California history.
Kirk Steers, a San Mateo-based fire-
fighter, was deployed for 16 days to
first fight the Cranston Fire in
Southern California before relocating
to the Mendocino Complex.
“That was exciting for us,” Steers
said. “Obviously the devastation isn’t
the exciting part, but we’re trained to
do this. We’ve dedicated our lives and
careers to fighting fires and it’s excit-
ing when you get a chance to perform
and do what you’re trained to do.”

This was Steers’ 15th deployment.
“I volunteer to go every time,” he
said. “I enjoy the hiking, firefighting,
the different locations and everything
about wildland firefighting.”
Defending a ranch
Steers’ crew arrived three days after
the area began burning, and he said
many people didn’t want to leave their
homes.
“It’s more common than you’d
think. People are determined to protect
their property at all costs,” he said.
Steers was assigned to defend one
property with three houses on it. A
family with a mother, father, grand-
mother and three sons refused to leave.
The fire came ripping through the
area so quickly and intensely that
Steers’ crew had to relocate for a short
while, but still the family stayed.
The fire fortunately went around
them, but it consumed every other
home in the area.
“I don’t think people realize how
real the threat is and by the time they
see it, it’s too late. That’s how people
die,” Steers said.
That was Steer’s first day in
Mendocino. Days later, his team spent
an entire night defending a ranch com-
pletely surrounded by flames and ended
up saving the home, barns and horses.
The fire crept up within 10 feet of the
barns while the owner watched from a
safer location not far away. By morn-
ing, the entire surrounding valley was
black.
Steers said the smoke is the hardest
part about fighting wildfires as
responders often only wear a handker-
chief to protect themselves; firefight-
ers don’t use the self-contained breath-
ing apparatus that they use when fight-
ing structure fires because it’s too
bulky and only provides oxygen for
about 30 minutes.
On their way out of town, Steers’
team stopped in Ukiah for breakfast
and happened to run into the owners of
another home they were able to save.
“They hadn’t heard about their house
and we were able to let them know it
was OK and showed them pictures,” he
said. “That never happens. You rarely
get to see the people whose home you
protected.”

nOtICE Of pEtItIOn tO
ADMInIStEr EStAtE Of
David S. Newman
Case Number: 18PRO00862
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, con-
tingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or es-
tate, or both, of David S. Newman. A Pe-
tition for Probate has been filed by Mari-
lyn Y. Newman in the Superior Court of
California, County of San Mateo. The
Petition for Probate requests that Marilyn
Y. Newman be appointed as personal
representative to administer the estate of
the decedent.
The petition requests authority to admin-
ister the estate under the Independent
Administration of Estates Act. (This au-
thority will allow the personal representa-
tive to take many actions without obtain-
ing court approval. Before taking certain
very important actions, however, the per-
sonal representative will be required to
give notice to interested persons unless
they have waived notice or consented to
the proposed action.) The independent
administration authority will be granted
unless an interested person files an ob-
jection to the petition and shows good
cause why the court should not grant the
authority.
A hearing on the petition will be held in
this court as follows: SEP 18, 2018 at
9:00 a.m., Department 28, Superior
Court of California, County of San Mateo,
400 County Center, Redwood City, CA
94063.
If you object to the granting of the peti-
tion, you should appear at the hearing
and state your objections or file written
objections with the court before the hear-
ing. Your appearance may be in person
or by your attorney.
If you are a creditor or a contingent cred-
itor of the decedent, you must file your
claim with the court and mail a copy to
the personal representative appointed by
the court within the later of either (1) four
months from the date of first issuance of
letters to a general personal representa-
tive, as defined in section 58(b) of the
Calilfornia Probate Code, or (2) 60 days
from the date of mailing or personal de-
livery to you of a notice under sectioin
9052 of the Callifornia Probate
Code.Other California statutes and legal
authority may affect your rights as a
creditor. You may want to consult with an
attorney knowledgable in California law.
You may examine the file kept by the
court. If you are a person interested in
the estate, you may file with the court a
Request for Special Notice (form DE-
154) of the filing of an inventory and ap-
praisal of estate assets or of any petition
or account as provided in Probate Code
section 1250. A Request for Special No-
tice form is available from the court clerk.

ward to continuing the discussion of policies
he felt could be helpful for renters as they
face a scarcity of available and affordable
housing units. He said he has been encour-
aged by the partnership between housing and
tenant advocates to scope solutions to the
housing crisis.
“There just aren’t enough places for people
to live who have jobs on the Peninsula and
for that reason the cost is going up and up
and up,” he said.
A prepared statement from the California
Apartment Association affirmed the group’s
commitment to partnering with the city
since 2016 to discuss many of the ideas put
forward by the housing task force.
“[California Apartment Association] Tri-
County remains committed to working with
the city of San Mateo to identify reasonable
programs and policies to address the housing
LOCAL
challenges facing the city’s residents,”
according to the association’s statement.
“We look forward to a productive, collabora-
tive discussion on real solutions to address
our housing challenges.”
In a Jan. 19 letter addressed to coun-
cilmembers, the association reminded offi-
cials it has led the effort to promote policies
that ensured reliability, security and pre-
dictability for both renters and housing
providers and has supported minimum lease
terms, increased notification requirements, a
framework to allow greater communication
between landlords and tenants to settle dis-
putes, and a reasonable, targeted relocation
assistance for properties permanently
removed from the market or units that must
be vacated for extensive renovations.
Because the city has a policy to award ten-
ants three months in rent payments when a
residential building is demolished, it may
consider extending that ordinance to include
tenants displaced by extensive renovations
requiring them to vacate the building during
construction, according to a staff report.
Officials may also consider requiring land-
lords to pay for tenant relocation when units
are deemed unsafe for occupancy by code
enforcement or when renters cannot afford
large rent increases to mitigate the impact of
large cost jumps or several increases in a
year, according to the report.
Councilmembers received several emails
from residents and landlords in San Mateo
outlining concerns about some of the meas-
ures and how they might present hardships
for mom-and-pop property owners who may
depend on the income from their rental prop-
erties and may not be able to afford to pay
relocation assistance.
For Evelyn Stivers, executive director of
the county’s Housing Leadership Council,
the broad range of ideas included among the
measures councilmembers will consider was
encouraging. Given the challenges renters
— especially larger families, seniors and
those with disabilities — face with housing
stability, Stivers said she views the policies
up for review as strategies for preventing
homelessness.
“The county has a rise in homelessness,
especially with seniors, and providing a way
Friday • Aug 31, 2018 31
for people to establish a new home when
they lose their home is critical to preventing
homelessness,” she said.
Councilman Eric Rodriguez said he’s look-
ing forward to carefully listening to the
options up for review Tuesday and also being
mindful of the potential unintended conse-
quences of any protections officials could put
in place. He added officials could also
explore similar efforts in other cities to
gauge how the measures could take shape in
San Mateo.
Noting his mother has seen her rent in San
Mateo increase by more than 50 percent in
recent years, Rodriguez expressed hope offi-
cials could help renters weather an expensive
housing market while also ensuring they are
fair to mom-and-pop landlords.
“Renters have it really tough right now in
this environment,” he said, noting the mar-
ket has also put pressure on landlords. “We’re
in the middle of a housing crisis and I don’t
think it’s necessarily fair to put an unfair bur-
den on them. So how do we balance this?”
