Six vying for four Redwood City Council seats


Barbara Pierce being termed out of her seat after serving 16 years
By Bill Silverfarb
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

The Redwood City Council is guaranteed to


have at least one new member next year as
Barbara Pierce is being termed out of her seat
after filling it for 16 years.
There are four seats up for grabs on the
seven-seat council in the November election
with Alicia Aguirre, Ian Bain and Rosanne
Foust seeking re-election.
They are being challenged by Janet
Borgens, Shelly Masur and Tania Sol.

The Daily Journal sat down with all six candidates to discuss issues such as the citys
booming downtown, lack of affordable housing, development east of Highway 101 and
traffic.
Borgens is a current planning commissioner, Masur is a trustee on the Redwood City
School District board and Sol is the former
president of the residents association at
Docktown Marina, the citys floating community on the Bayshore.
With construction cranes dotting the citys
skyline, the candidates have good and bad

things to say about the Downtown Precise


Plan, the citys blueprint for future growth in
the area.
The plan has paved the way for downtowns
booming office construction, which has
already reached its cap.
Sol said the plan wasnt envisioned to be
realized for at least 20 years but has reached
its numbers in less than five years.
She proposes a moratorium on downtown
construction so the city can revisit the plan
since it was developed before the crippling
drought hit the state, she said.

FIRE SPARKS MORE DELAYS ON HIGHWAY

In retrospect, Foust said the council could


have placed a limit in the precise plan on how
much new construction can take place per
year in downtown.
The risk, however, is that changing market
conditions could jeopardize development in
the area, Foust said.
Bain said the plan is a good one overall but
that it has led to a jobs/housing imbalance. He
said the council may have set height limits too
high for new buildings and that more empha-

were likely to adjourn this years legislative session Friday
without completing major initiatives on transportation and
health care financing.
So far, Democratic proposals to add a $65 vehicle registration fee and raise the cigarette tax by $2 per pack have been
panned by Republicans, whose support they need to pass on a
two-thirds vote.

This Day in History


America faced an unprecedented day of
terror as 19 al-Qaida members hijacked
four passenger jetliners, sending two of
the planes smashing into New Yorks
World Trade Center, one into the
Pentagon and the fourth into a field in western Pennsylvania,
resulting in nearly 3,000 deaths.

On Thursday, the 60-year-old

draw public attention to increasing aquatic pollution.
And for peace and love, Strel added

his head for a moment of silence to
remember those who died in the complex

Since 2000, Strel has swum the entire
length of five rivers the piranhainfested Amazon, the Danube in Eastern

soon as he could.
Broyhill said he forgot about the tickets
until a conversation with a college friend
and realized that he hadnt made good on
his promise. He sent the $100 with a note
explaining what had happened to the colleges Parking and Transit Services,
where it landed on Director Dan
Carpenters desk.
I cant remember how many tickets I
had, or what I owed, so I got out my
checkbook and sent (the university)
$100, said Broyhill, who lives in South
Sioux City. I promised I would pay
them. It was the right thing to do.
Parking staff checked through files but
couldnt find Broyhills name. Carpenter
said the school doesnt have records of
paper tickets written back that far but that
Broyhills tickets likely were deemed
uncollectable sometime in the 1970s or
1980s.
The college sent the money back to
Broyhill, because the $100 was probably
more than what his tickets were worth,
and thanked him for his gesture.
We got a kick out of it, thats for
sure, Carpenter said.
Broyhill said trying to pay the fines
puts his mind at ease, even decades later.
We were busy at graduation, and all
this stuff was adding up, and it just kind
of slipped my mind, he said. But I paid

Donations help renovate, modernize Burlingame Library
By Austin Walsh

A suspect carrying a large snake entered a

before 11:20 a.m. Sunday, Sept. 6.

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

MILLBRAE
Due in part to the charity of local residents,
the Burlingame Library received a substantial
facelift, which library officials claim is necessary to better serve the current demands of a
changing, modern society.
The Burlingame Library Foundation raised
funds from residents in Burlingame and
Hillsborough and donated $1 million to a
recently completed $3.5 million renovation
project which aimed to modernize the services available at the citys main library at 480
Primrose Road.
Burlingame City Librarian Bradley
McCulley said the project, which also
received a $2.5 million contribution from the
city budget, will grant residents greater access
to technology and allow the library to offer
services more aligned with the needs of the
public.
The renovation, which took roughly six
months to complete, added a new computer
lab, study rooms, a conference center and
other technological advances such as automated book drop off and checkout stations,
among a variety of other improvements.
McCulley credited the graciousness of local
residents, and the hard work of the members
of the library foundation to raise the funds in
making the overhaul possible.
If it wasnt for the willingness of the foundation, this project would have never got off
the ground, he said.
The library, which last underwent a renovation when it was seismically retrofitted roughly two decades ago, serves nearly 1,000 people a day from Burlingame, Hillsborough and
other nearby communities, said McCulley.
As technology and the Internet has played a
more pronounced role in society, the contribution a library makes to its community has

Court blocks
pesticide use
on bee worry
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO A federal appeals


court Thursday blocked the use of a pesticide
over concerns about its effect on honey bees,
which have mysteriously disappeared across
the country in recent years.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
did not adequately study the pesticide sulfoxaflor before approving its use in 2013 on a
wide variety of crops, including citrus and
cotton, the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals
said.

REUTERS FILE PHOTO

As much as one-third of the nations bees have disappear each winter since 2006.
Initial studies showed sulfoxaflor was highly toxic to honey bees, and the EPA was
required to get further tests, Circuit Judge
Mary Schroeder said.
In this case, given the precariousness of bee
populations, leaving the EPAs registration of
sulfoxaflor in place risks more potential environmental harm than vacating it, she wrote.

An after-hours call to a spokeswoman for


the EPA was not immediately returned.
Sulfoxaflor is part of a group of insecticides
known as neonicotinoids, according to the 9th
Circuit ruling. Neonicotinoids are suspected of
being among several factors that have contributed to the collapse of honey bee colonies
throughout the U.S.

Foster City man, 93, to trial for wifes murder

A 93-year-old Foster City man on


Wednesday was ordered to stand trial for the
murder of his wife of 70 years, prosecutors
said Thursday.
Wayne Bair has been charged with murder
for allegedly stabbing his wife, 90-year-old
Helena Marie Bair, and then stabbing himself on June 13 in the Foster City home they
shared, according to the San Mateo County
District Attorneys Office.
Bair called 911 at 8:06 p.m. to report he

recovered at a hospital

Investigators are puzzled what the motive
for the stabbing might be. The couple was
apparently happily married for many years
and had no financial or health issues.

Bairs defense attorney, Charles Smith,


said Thursday that while Bair pleaded not
guilty to the murder charge, it is clear from
the evidence that he stabbed his wife and
then himself, but why that happened remains
a mystery.
Its really inexplicable. He is a quality
man who loved his wife and led an exemplary life and was very close to her, Smith
said.
Smith said he has mental health experts
working on the case to try and determine
what happened, but the couple had no history of mental health problems.
Bair remains in jail without bail as he
awaits trial.

Iran nuclear deal survives:


Dems block disapproval vote
By Erica Werner and Deb Riechman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Senate Democrats voted


to uphold the hard-fought nuclear accord with
Iran on Thursday, overcoming ferocious GOP
opposition and delivering President Barack
Obama a legacy-making victory on his top foreign policy priority.
A disapproval resolution for the agreement
fell two votes short of the 60 needed to move
forward as most Democratic and independent
senators banded together against it. Although
House Republicans continued to pursue
eleventh-hour strategies to derail the international accord and Senate Republicans promised a re-vote, Thursdays outcome all but
guaranteed that the disapproval legislation
would not reach Obamas desk.
As a result the nuclear deal will move forward unchecked by Congress, an improbable
win by Obama in the face of unanimous opposition from Republicans who control Capitol
Hill, GOP candidates seeking to replace him in
the Oval Office and the state of Israel and its
allied lobbyists in the U.S.
Beginning next week, Obama will be free to
start scaling back U.S. sanctions to implement
the agreement negotiated by Iran, the U.S. and
five other world powers. The accord aims to
constrain Irans nuclear ambitions in exchange
for hundreds of billions of dollars in relief
from international sanctions.
This vote is a victory for diplomacy, for
American national security and for the safety
and security of the world, the president said in
a statement. Going forward, we will turn to

the critical work of implementing and verifying this


deal so that Iran cannot
pursue a nuclear weapon.
Frustrated Republicans
railed against Democrats
for using a procedural vote
to block final passage of
the disapproval resolution,
and issued grim warnings
Barack Obama about a deal they contend
could serve only to enrich
Tehran and leave it closer to building a bomb
when constraints begin to ease in 10 or 15
years. They promised that Thursdays vote
would not be the Senates last word, and
moments after it was over Senate Majority
Leader Mitch McConnell set the stage for
another next week.
No amount of saying this issue is over
makes it over, McConnell declared, adding
that if a Republican wins the White House next
year, I say to Iranian observers of the debate,
(the deal) will be looked on anew.
But Democrats led by Minority Leader
Harry Reid of Nevada promised that any further votes would have the same outcome and
are just simply a waste of time.
People around the world should know
todays outcome was clear, decisive and final,
Reid said.
In the House, Republicans had not given up
on blocking the deal against all odds. After
backtracking on plans to vote on the disapproval resolution when it began to look short
of support in the Senate, House Republicans
lined up votes on several related measures.

Groups push university to


adopt creed against anti-Semitism

Around the state

SAN DIEGO Jewish organizations are


upset that the University of California is considering adopting a creed against intolerance
that does not explicitly mention anti-Semitism,
which they say is a longstanding problem on
its campuses.
More than two dozen organizations signed a
letter sent to the UC board of regents on
Thursday expressing their outrage about the
proposed Statement of Principles Against
Intolerance to be discussed at their meeting
next week.
Jewish groups had been pushing the UC to
adopt the State Departments definition of antiSemitism, saying some campus debates over
the Israeli-Palestinian conflict were disintegrating into the harassment of Jewish students.
UC President Janet Napolitano said in a
radio interview in May that she personally
believes the UC should adopt the U.S. State
Departments definition, which says that denying Israels right to exist is anti-Semitic. That
would be a first for a public university system.
Napolitanos comments drew fire from advocates of free speech and those critical of
Israels policy toward Palestine, who said such
a definition could be used to silence them.
Jewish organizations say a rash of antiSemitism incidents last year including many
that made references to Israel underscore
the need for the UC system to take a strong
stance against anti-Semitism on its 10 campuses.

power outages and leaving some school kids in
overheated classrooms.
The sweltering, erratic weather was being
generated by a ridge of high pressure over the
state and the monsoonal flow of moisture from
Tropical Storm Linda, the weakening former
hurricane spinning in the Pacific about 400
miles southwest of San Diego.
The weeklong heat wave, which has produced triple-digit temperatures up and down
the state, was expected to start receding Friday.
Heat advisories extended from San Diego
north to San Francisco and beyond, although
fog that swaddled the Golden Gate and cooler
temperatures along the immediate Bay Area
coast presaged a gradual return to normal summer weather.
Cloud cover knocked a degree or two off
high temperatures, but the National Weather
Service said it would not be noticeable because
of the high humidity.
Demand for electricity, meanwhile, was high
as people turned to air conditioning for relief.
That proved a problem for the Los Angeles
Unified School District, the nations largest,
where aging infrastructure was being taxed
in a school year that now begins in mid-summer.

Obituary

Anne Bryant
Anne A. Bryant went to Heaven peacefully on August 21, 2015. Anna
Giaimo was born February 16, 1928, the middle child of Italian
parents, John and Emira Giaimo and sister of Guy and Rose. She was
born and raised in Boston, Massachusetts until the age of 16 when
she met the love of her life; a handsome sailor from Tennessee, Henry
Lee HankBryant. Anne and her family moved to San Mateo in 1944
and after a long distance courtship, Anne and Hank married in 1945.
After Hank was discharged from the Navy, he moved to San Mateo
and became a painting contractor. Anne helped him with the bookkeeping of his business. Hank
passed away October 2010 after 65 years of marriage.
Anne was a loving and devoted wife, mother and grandmother. Some of her passions included
music, sewing, drawing, dancing, playing cards and socializing with her huge Italian family and
many friends in the neighborhood. She was an excellent cook and shared her talent with everyone.
There was always room for a friend or stranger at her dinner table. She was a devout Christian and
practiced the Golden Rule with every person she met. She was a proud American and a strong
woman. Anne loved to laugh and play with her husband, children and grandchildren and she lived
each day with joy and positive enthusiasm.
Anne is survived by her six children; Carol, Steven, Susan, Jon, Marc and Mary and their spouses,
six grandchildren and five great-grandchildren.
A memorial service and reception will be held at Mid-Peninsula Vineyard Christian Church at
1566 Arroyo Avenue in San Carlos, Saturday October 3rd at 11:00 a.m. As Anne would say,Come
as you are!

Amid concerns, Clinton seeks to rally her loyalists


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

COLUMBUS, Ohio With poll


numbers declining and email questions
persisting, Hillary Rodham Clinton
labored Thursday to shore up support
among some of her strongest backers
and ease concerns about the trajectory of
her presidential campaign.
As Clinton worked in Ohio to marshal
female voters, a sturdy base of support
in a historically favorable state, top officials from her campaign updated loyal
allies in Congress on efforts to regain

her footing.
However, in the
early-voting states of
Iowa and New
Hampshire, there
was evident worry
that Vermont Sen.
Bernie Sanders was
making
inroads
despite
the
formidaHillary Clinton
ble machinery of the
former secretary of states campaign.
Sanders is calling, doing outreach to
a far wider base than Clinton, said

Sarah Swisher, of Iowa City, who in


2008 was a superdelegate for Clinton
at the partys national convention. He
has staff who call me all the time. And
he has the volunteer capacity to make
those contacts.
The flurry of Clinton activity this
week hints at the depth of concern about
her national campaign. On Thursday, the
modest-sized ballroom in downtown
Columbus was half empty for her event,
with supporters herded into a cordonedoff area to give the impression of a
packed crowd.

After insulting Fiorina, Trump tested by wave of criticism


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON A wave of criticism


from Republicans and Democrats alike
rose Thursday after GOP presidential
front-runner Donald Trump insulted the
physical appearance of Carly Fiorina, his
partys only female White House contender.
Its a new test for the candidacy of the

brash-talking Trump,
whose standing in
opinion polls has
surged despite a
series of comments
that might well have
doomed a traditional
politician.
Republican
Gov.
Donald Trump Louisiana

Bobby Jindal called Trump a madman,


while Democrat Hillary Rodham Clinton
said the billionaire real-estate mogul
seems to delight in insulting women
every chance he gets.
Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush dismissed Trumps latest comments as
small and inappropriate. And Fiorina,
the target of Trumps latest insult, suggested she was getting under his skin.

Justice Department seeks to ease


path for corporate prosecutions
By Eric Tucker
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

REUTERS

Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, right, testifies at a House Intelligence Committee hearing on
World Wide Cyber Threats on Capitol Hill.

Intelligence chief: Little


penalty for cyberattacks
By Ken Dilanian
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Cyberattacks
against American interests are likely
to continue and grow more damaging, in part because hackers face a
low risk of consequences, the director of national intelligence told
Congress Thursday.
James Clapper, the nations top
intelligence official, told the House
intelligence committee that a muted
response to most cyberattacks has
created a permissive environment in
which hacking can be used as a tool
short of war to benefit adversaries

and inflict damage on the United


States.
Until such time as we do create
both the substance and the mindset
of deterrence, this sort of thing is
going to continue, Clapper said,
speaking specifically about the
recently revealed hack of federal
personnel information linked to
China in which personal data on
some 22 million current and former
U.S. government employees, contractors, job applicants and relatives
was stolen. We will continue to see
this until we create both the substance and the psychology of deterrence.
The administration has yet to act

in response to the OPM hack.


Last May, the Justice Department
issued criminal indictments against
five Chinese military hackers it
accused of cyberespionage against
U.S. corporations for economic
advantage. FBI director James
Comey said at the time the spying
was to benefit Chinese companies,
but he neither named the companies
nor took formal action against them.
Clapper said Thursday he is
deeply worried that the data will be
used to expose or blackmail
American intelligence operatives,
but he said the U.S. has yet to see
any evidence of the data being used
in that way.

Last Market September 17. Thanks


for your support. See you next year!

WASHINGTON Despite the


many challenges in bringing such
cases, the Justice Department is
renewing its commitment to prosecuting corporate executives for
financial
misdeeds,
Deputy
Attorney General Sally Quillian
Yates said Thursday.
In a warning shot to Wall Street,
Yates unveiled new policies to guide
federal prosecutors in bringing more
criminal cases against individuals
even as she acknowledged that the
Justice Department has, at times,
struggled to hold executives
accountable for fraud that occurs at
their companies.
Crime is crime. And it is our

obligation at the Justice Department


to ensure that we are holding lawbreakers accountable regardless of
whether they commit their crimes
on the street corner or in the boardroom, Yates said at New York
Universitys law school.
Americans should never believe,
even incorrectly, that ones criminal
activity will go unpunished simply
because it was committed on behalf
of a corporation.
The new guidance comes amid
persistent criticism that the department, even while negotiating multibillion-dollar settlements with large
banks, has not been aggressive
enough in prosecuting individuals
for financial misconduct including after the mortgage crisis that
devastated the U.S. economy.

Saudi businessman gives $10M


for Islamic law center at Yale
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

A Saudi businessman has donated


$10 million to Yale Law School to
establish what school officials hope
will become the countrys top center
for the study of Islamic law.
Abdallah S. Kamel made the
award after meetings with university
representatives including Yale
President Peter Salovey. Kamel,
chief executive of the Dallah
Albaraka Group banking and real
estate enterprise in Saudi Arabia, has
sponsored a lecture series on Islamic
law for the last three years.
Yale officials say the Abdallah S.
Kamel Center for the Study of

Islamic Law and Civilization reflects


a growing interest at Yale and other
institutions in Islamic law, history
and culture.
The contemporary challenges of
Islamic law are broadly relevant to
political events throughout the entire
Islamic world and those are developments that are watched by a much
larger audience of people who in
many cases have not much knowledge at all of the history and traditions if Islamic law, said Professor
Anthony Kronman, a co-director of
the center who was first introduced
to Kamel by a Yale Law graduate
who works as an attorney for the
Saudi businessman.

Reduction of lanes on
Farm Hill is an outrage
Editor,
Firstly, your report (Farm Hill commute a disaster in the Sept. 9 edition
of the Daily Journal) is wrong; the number of lanes were reduced from four to
two, not three. The city calls it three
lanes, which you repeated, but it is actually two lanes. It is nice to know that
Mayor Jeff Gee is hopeful. However,
as an engineer, I know that infrastructure needs to be designed. Hope has
no place in the equation. Furthermore,
infrastructure needs to be designed efciently for maximum usage, like accommodating trafc during commute hours.
The Redwood City government is failing us, the city residents. I am hopeful
that they will recognize that being well
intentioned is not good enough. They
took something that was working and
broke it.

Vito Longo
Redwood City

Avenue neighborhood is a beautiful little


sanctuary in the middle of San Mateo
for people to live in. The dead end
ensures our tranquility.
Two weeks ago, the City Council sent
around a notice that they would be
repaving the road. The neighborhood is
currently served by a concrete road with
standard city curbs. There are seams that
meet the surface where cuts for pipe
repairs have been made and repaired. A
person would have to try very hard to
stumble on one of them.
Now the city wants to bring the backhoes and jack hammers to our sanctuary,
tear out all the curbs and driveway
aprons and lay down 2 inches of asphalt.
This project will seriously degrade the
quality of life in this San Mateo neighborhood for four months of chaos for
which we will receive no functional
improvements. The contractor will be
the only one that benets.Shame on the
citys Planning Division, shame on the
city ofcials squandering the tax payers
money like this. Shame on all of you for
destroying the historic character of this
neighborhood.

Just a reminder
during voting time
Editor,
I have written several letters regarding
the welfare of the citizens of Millbrae.
Some have been regarding the mistreatment of city ordinances by the City
Council and Planning Commission concerning the Tai-Wu Restaurant. One letter touched on the lthy sidewalks and
trash on the streets and alleys in
Millbrae on and east of Broadway.
Other residents have written regarding
their concerns that the members of both
the City Council and Planning
Commission do not listen and do whatever they want. Never once has any
member of either the council or commission responded to the letters, or for
that matter, proceeded to do what was
requested.
As time nears and candidates start to
campaign for these positions, I strongly
urge all Millbrae residents do not
vote for any incumbents. Vote for some
new blood. Maybe that will send a
message that the residents of Millbrae
mean business.

In support of Measure V
Editor,
Regarding San Carloss Measure V, an
important question needs to be asked of
every opponent.
If the city were given the land without
cost, would you support that? I know
its simplistic, but who would say
no?This comes down to cost of acquisition. All the added arguments against
Measure V are just sandbagging.
What is it worth to you as a propertyowning citizen of San Carlos to maintain a quality of life? Thats the
choice.Perhaps a major point thats
overlooked, parks add to the economic
welfare of our cities too.The American
Planning Association documents how
cities use parks for positive economic
impact in this brieng paper:
https://www.planning.org/cityparks/brief
ingpapers/economicdevelopment.htm.
As for the no plan argument,Mayor
Ron Collins correctly puts the visioning
of the potential Black Mountain park
into the hands of San Carlos
citizens.This was true of Burton Park
when it added amenities during both its
Phase I and Phase II improvements.
Dont the opponents trust that we, as a
community, can come up with a good
plan for this parks potential features?
Weve been doing it all along; with the
emphasis on we.
Do I like paying for a bond? No. But
it if means preserving our social and
economic well-being, Im in for the
investment being proposed. As a past

Improvements on
Sugarloaf will ruin nature
Editor,
After reading another article in the
Sept. 7 Daily Journal about prospective
improvements by building dedicated
trails and steps on Sugarloaf Mountain
(Trails sought for open space in the
Sept. 7 edition of the Daily Journal), I
was prompted to write.I, for one, do not
hail this project. If one walks along the
Bayside looking west, one can see the
hills and mountains which make up
the San Mateo and Belmont highlands.
All among them, save one, are heavily
built with residences, businesses and
schools. That one hillock is Sugarloaf. It
was set aside as open space.
The base of Sugarloaf has been developed into Laurelwood Park. In that are
two trails along the creek. The recently
rehabbed park is beautiful; not so much
as the creek, as the litter and trash from
thoughtless people degrade that watercourse.
One can imagine the litter that the
hands of men, women and children will
drop atop Sugarloaf once accessibility is
improved. As for concerns about erosion, wouldnt more feet tramping on
the mountain increase that concern?
Sure, the view is magnicent, but so
are many other magnicent views in and
about our Peninsula. But couldnt we,
who arent the only species on the planet, leave a little bit of open space for
other species? How could this place be
referred to as a sanctuary for plants
and animals if they are hardly eager to
have us see them?
Could we have some consideration for
the deer, the mountain lions, the frogs,
the coyotes, the bluebelly lizards and the
rattlesnakes who also reside there? Must
we be so self-centered?

More on my
editors note
I

received a call from a woman this Monday, Labor


Day, about a Sept. 4 letter we printed from San
Carlos Councilman Mark Olbert regarding bond
financing as it relates to Measure V in that city. Measure
V, of course, is a $45 million bond that would go toward
the purchase of about 25 acres in three parcels that were
the former home of the Black Mountain Spring Water site
located on Alameda de las Pulgas between Madera Avenue
and Melendy Drive. Its on the November ballot, which is
an all-mail ballot as part of a pilot program created
through legislation authored by Assemblyman Kevin
Mullin, D-South San
Francisco. That last part is a
little off topic, but related.
Anyway, the woman wanted
to call my attention to the fact
that weve been running an
editors note (thats from me!)
on the opinion page that says
we have identified some rules
on guest perspectives and letters during the election season.
She felt that we should not
have run Olberts letter since
he is running for re-election
and he wrote about an election
issue. She also said something
about our coverage of the issue, but Ill get to that later.
I wish she had left her name and phone number so I
could call her with some clarity. However, she did not. For
those who have not seen it, here is the text of the editors
note: During election season, the Daily Journal does not
accept guest perspective submissions from candidates for
office or on election-related topics such as local measures.
Letters to the editor of about 250 words on electionrelated topics or from candidates for office will be accepted.
So what I was trying to say in this editors note is that
we do not accept guest perspectives on election-related
topics or from candidates for local office until Election
Day. But we do accept letters to the editor. Olbert is up
for re-election but he is running, along with Mayor Ron
Collins, unopposed so there is not really an active campaign though there is still time for a write-in candidate
to throw their hat in the ring. But more to the point,
Olbert did write a letter to the editor, which is what we
printed, and what is allowed under the policy described in
the editors note. Its guest perspectives, those that are
around 600 words, that are not allowed right now from
those running for elected office or on election-related topics.
And since we are on the topic of clarity, you may be
wondering why there are restrictions on guest perspectives
until Election Day. Well, to put it simply, its a matter of
fairness and space. If we allow one, we have to allow
many, and we simply would not have the space for all. So
we limit such submissions, specifically guest perspectives
on election-related matters and from candidates for local
office, from the filing deadline in early August until
Election Day. However, we do have space for some back
and forth, so we allow letters to the editor. And thats why
there is the policy. Hope that helps that one woman, and
anyone else wondering what the intent is of that little editors note youll see from time to time on our opinion

NEW YORK Stocks in the U.S.


bucked a global market slump Thursday
as investors look ahead to a crucial
Federal Reserve meeting next week on
interest rates.
Investors pushed major U.S. indexes
lower in the morning following drops in
Asia and Europe, then reversed course
as oil prices rose. That helped send
shares of energy companies, which have
been battered in recent weeks, higher.
Traders remain focused on a two-day
meeting of Federal Reserve policymakers next week. They are trying to anticipate when and how quickly the central
bank will begin to raise interest rates
from their historically low levels. Those
low rates have been a key factor sending
stock prices higher over the past seven
years.
A report Thursday showing a decline
in applications for unemployment
claims was the latest bullish sign on the
job market, which could prompt the Fed
to tighten credit. Some say worries about
higher rates are overblown.
The U.S. economy is in significantly
better shape than in the past, said Mike

Stern test for CCS champs


Game of the Week

By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

The Sacred Heart Prep football team can


thank Riordan for helping the Gators win the
Central Coast Section Open Division championship in 2014. It was the Crusaders who
offered the first real challenge of the season
last year for the Gators, who pulled out a 14-7
victory.
SHP coach Pete Lavorato is expecting pretty much the same when the Gators host the
Crusaders in the Daily Journals Game of the
Week at 3 p.m. Friday.
(Last year was a) very tough, tough game.
One of our more difficult games all year,
Lavorato said. Theyre the kind of team that
gives us problems. Theyre big, strong and
theyre fast, athletic.
Riordan won only one game last season and
finished last in the West Catholic Athletic
League. But the mere fact the Crusaders play in
the WCAL suggests they will be a handful for
any team outside of their league.
Its going to be a good measure of where we
are, especially in the second game of the
year, Lavorato said. Theyre a WCAL team.
The Crusaders have a new coach in Kevin
Fordon, who is from the De La Salle coaching
tree. Lavorato said he got a chance to see
Riordan scrimmage Burlingame before the
start of the season. While Lavorato said the
Crusaders defense is relatively unchanged,
the offense has undergone an overhaul and
moving to a more spread, read-option type of
system.
I think weve played enough zone-read
teams. Whether we can stop it, well see,
Lavorato said. They have a big offensive
line. Theyre going to try to run the ball
against us. Everybody tries to run the ball
against us. If we dont stop the run, its very
demoralizing.
Lavoratos concerns stems from the fact he
has nine new starters on a defense that allowed
less than 20 points per game last season.
Im concerned about our defense because of
our youth, Lavorato said. Im not concerned
about athletic ability or effort. All Im concerned about is our experience.
Im also concerned about [Riordans]
defense because its really tough.
Last year, the 14 points SHP scored against

Little League
to change ages
New cutoff date will
phase out 13-year-olds
By Pat Eaton-Robb
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

DAILY JOURNAL SPORTS FILE

SHP quarterback Mason Randall is a three-year varsity player who threw for 223 yards in last
weeks 47-7 win over Leland. But coach Pete Lavorato said Randall does not care about his
numbers will do whatever will help the team win.

Little League is getting younger.


The organization announced Thursday it is
changing its age requirement, phasing 13year-olds out of the division that plays in
the annual Little League World Series in
South Williamsport, Pennsylvania.
They are doing that by changing the
leagues age determination date to Aug.
31. That will prevent anyone who turns 13
during the baseball season from playing in
the major division of Little League baseball.
The change, which affects all divisions
from tee-ball up, fully takes effect beginning in 2018. The current birthdate cutoff of
April 30 will remain in effect in 2016 and
2017 for players born on or before Aug. 31,
2005.
Little League District Administrators had
voted in 2014 to move the age cutoff date to
Dec. 31. But Stephen D. Keener, the leagues
president and CEO, said they moved it again
after getting feedback from parents, coaches
and others.
The administrators felt the Aug. 31 date
would be more appropriate in meeting the
goal of making the Little League Baseball
Division truly a 12 and under program,
while also mitigating the impact to those
currently participating in the Little League
program, Keener said.
The move to Aug. 31 also will bring its
registration in line with most school districts, allowing more kids to play with their
classmates.
Many of the stars of the Little League
World Series have been 13-year-olds and 67
teenagers were among the 209 players who
competed in the just completed tournament
in South Williamsport, Pennsylvania.
Andrew Solomon, the coach of the
Pearland, Texas team that made it to this
years U.S. championship game, said the
older kids have had an advantage since teeball, when several months in age can make a
big developmental difference. They were

Aragon volleyball out to prove it belongs in Bay


By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Aragon volleyball is anticipating the heat


of its promotion to the Peninsula Athletic
League Bay Division. So, third-year head
coach Kelsey Stiles is getting her team acclimated to the heat literally.
The Dons open their 2015 season Friday in
sweltering San Luis Obispo in a statewide
tournament. With a weekend forecast touching 90 degrees in San Luis Obispo, Stiles had
the temperature cranked way high at Aragons
midweek practices. And the veteran Aragon

squad adapted seamlessly.


Its going to be a long weekend hot,
Stiles said.
High temperatures are only the tip of the
iceberg. The competition is going to be
stacked at the San Luis Obispo Mid-State
Tournament, with 44 teams mostly from
Southern California. Aragon is guaranteed
seven games over two days. Highlighting
Aragons four-team preliminary pool is
Louisville-Woodland Hills, which posted a
24-8 overall record last year, including an
undefeated 8-0 mark in winning the Sunshine
League championship.
There is going to be a lot of good competi-

tion, Stiles said. The So Cal teams are very


good so its going to be a lot of work.
But Aragon went undefeated in league last
season as well, cruising to a 14-0 record to
win the PAL Ocean Division title. Overall, the
Dons finished with a 30-5 mark, recording
win No. 30 in their opener of the Central
Coast Section Division III playoffs. They
were eliminated in the following round by
eventual CCS Division III champion Valley
Christian.
The recurring theme of the 2014 season in
the Dons ranks was the proverbial chip on
their shoulder over being demoted to the
Ocean Division. In Stiles first year at the var-

sity helm in 2013, the underclassman-heavy


team finished with a 2-10 record in Bay
Division play, good for seventh place,
prompting the demotion.
We dug ourselves into a hole (my) sophomore year, said Anna Joshi, a senior outside
hitter and fourth-year varsity player. So, we
knew last season was a season when we were
going to have to rise up.
Now, the Dons are out to prove they deserve
to stay in the Bay Division. With four returning starters, the recipe to persevere in the Aleague seems to be in place. But for those

Kap hopes QB work pays off with big season


By Janie McCauley
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SANTA CLARA Months ago in minicamp, Colin Kaepernick expressed the need
for him to carry a larger load given the
departure of so many stars during the offseason from a defensive unit that has long led
the San Francisco 49ers.
With the season opener quickly approaching, theres clearly a lot riding on
Kaepernicks big right arm, perhaps a newand-improved arm as he and everybody surrounding the team hope.
Kaepernick begins his third full year as
starter after spending much of his offseason
in Arizona working alongside Kurt Warner
and receiving guidance from other quarterback gurus, and now he will be under the
lights for the opener Monday night against
Minnesota eager to prove the extra work
made a difference and will lead to better production by an offense that struggled in most
phases last year.
Ive improved personally, I think this
teams improved, Kaepernick said
Thursday. Were a lot farther along than
where we started. This team has confidence
in what were doing and our ability to go out
and execute.
So far, such strides have only shown up in
practice those zippy passes with a little
more pepper, precision in his delivery and
decision-making. San Franciscos offense
failed to score a touchdown on eight preseason possessions.

Colin just needs to be Colin, coach Jim


Tomsula said. I dont know if you can meet
a more driven person. I dont know if youll
ever meet a more driven person than Colin
Kaepernick.
Kaepernick has been impressive in prime
time, going 4-0 playing on Monday night
with nine touchdown passes and no interceptions.
Not that hes keeping track.
I love playing under the lights, since
high school. It just kind of takes you back
to the old days of being under the lights, he
said. Its a different vibe than when youre
playing a day game. Everyone likes that
feeling.
Kaepernick completed 289 of 478 passes
for a career-best 3,369 yards and 19 touchdowns last season while throwing 10 interceptions and taking a career-high 52 sacks
second most in the NFL behind the 55 on
Jacksonvilles Blake Bortles.
Now, hes playing behind a largely new
offensive line already facing its share of
scrutiny after the Niners had repeated clock
problems last season. He has a fresh target
in Torrey Smith, though they only connected on one 5-yard completion during the
exhibition schedule.
Weve hit on a lot more as of late in practice, Smith said. Ive been catching them
for years, hes been throwing them for
years. Weve just got to make it happen at
the right time, during the game.
In Arizona with Warner, Kaepernick spent
one day a week in a classroom setting, and
applied those concepts from chalkboard

KYLE TERADA/USA TODAY SPORTS

Colin Kaepernick is hoping the work he did


with former NFL quarterback Kurt Warner
helps him become a better pocket passer.
study on the field as he worked on his mental approach.
Kaepernick has regularly been a dual
threat with his strong arm and speedy legs,
allowing him to break long gains in the
open field. Hed like to be that guy again.
Im really not worried about what people
say about me as a quarterback, he said. Im
worried about what my teammates think and
what my coaches think about me as a quar-

terback. Thats ultimately who I give that


ability to judge to.
Warner said he worked with Kaepernick on
becoming more comfortable in the pocket
so he sticks with his progressions to complete more short passes.
Youve got to be able to make the
layups, we say, the ones that you have to be
able to read it, and the easy throws, Warner
said. You just cant live in that outside-thebox type world where youre always trying
to create, because these guys are just too
good.
Second-year Vikings quarterback Teddy
Bridgewater also leaned on Warner for
advice after he finished his college career at
Louisville.
Warners message?
Be yourself, Bridgewater said. His
words meant a lot to me at that time.
Former 49ers coach and NFL Network analyst Steve Mariucci has seen enough of
Kaepernick to make comparisons with
some 49ers greats: Hall of Fame quarterbacks Joe Montana and Steve Young.
Colin Kaepernicks arm is the strongest
arm the 49er quarterbacks have ever had,
Mariucci said. Stronger than Joes and
Steves and Jeff Garcias. ... But I saw a better presence in the pocket. I saw a better
touch on some short passes, short, intermediate passes that required him taking some
velocity off. I saw a little bit of confidence.
Now its only one practice in training
camp, but I think adding a Torrey Smith and
with the new play callers, I think hes going
to have a heck of a year. I really do.

Raiders unproven cornerbacks in for test in opener


By Josh Dubow
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ALAMEDA The offseason decision by


the Oakland Raiders to trust their young cornerbacks rather than bring in veteran reinforcements faces an early test.
If TJ Carrie, DJ Hayden and crew can neutralize A.J. Green and the Cincinnati Bengals
passing game in the season opener on Sunday
it will be a form of validation for the players
and franchise.
If, on the other hand, Green lights it up at
the Coliseum, the questions about that decision will only grow louder.
Its a burden that Carrie and the other young
cornerbacks understand well.
They entrusted a lot of belief in us as a
younger group, Carrie said. Well have to
prove ourselves every week. We have to show

teams we may be young, but were still capable of playing in this league.
There is little evidence up to this point to
show thats true.
The five cornerbacks on the roster have
combined for just 15 career starts, led by
Haydens 10 over the past two years. Carrie
made four starts as a rookie and Keith McGill
started just one game. Neiko Thorpe has only
played in a reserve role and Dexter McDonald
is a rookie.
But despite the lack of a track record, the
Raiders passed on the chance to sign veteran
cornerbacks in free agency, as they had done
in general manager Reggie McKenzies first
three seasons, to focus on the young players.
If you look at all the options available on
our approach, in our estimation, developing
our guys was the best approach, coach Jack
Del Rio said. Weve had a good camp with

our guys. Were prepared for the regular season and were looking forward to seeing what
they have for us.
They should find out quickly against the
Bengals.
Green is one of the most accomplished
receivers in the league with his 329 catches
ranking third all-time for players in their first
four seasons. Throw in Mohamed Sanu and a
healthy Marvin Jones and the Raiders know
they will be in for quite a test on Sunday.
People around the league are doubting us
and looking down at us, Hayden said.
Theyre going to come after us. We just have
to do our thing and make plays.
This group has struggled to do that so far in
their careers. Carrie was one of the few bright
spots last season as a seventh-round rookie,
allowing only one touchdown pass all season.

Hayden, a first-round pick in 2013, hasnt

Pro Football Focus.
McGill and Thorpe will be the first two
options in substitution packages but both
have little experience. McGill played mostly
special teams as a rookie, while Thorpe has
played only 87 defensive plays in two seasons with Oakland and Kansas City.
One of those players will need to match up
this week against Green.

postponed from Sunday to Monday from
2008-12.
As part of a broader, $500 million-plus
renovation plan for the tournament site, the
U.S. Tennis Association has been constructing a retractable roof over the main court,
Arthur Ashe Stadium, that is planned for
next years U.S. Open.
For now, a framework of more than 6,500
tons of steel sits atop that stadium, but the
work to install the retractable panels will
resume after this years tournament ends.
Williams vs. Vinci was supposed to be the
rst womens seminal Thursday night, followed by the other.
Now Halep-Pennetta will begin at 11 a.m.
Friday, when the forecast is much more
promising. After that, Williams will play
Vinci, against whom she is 4-0.
Williams also has enjoyed plenty of success against the women she could meet in
the nal, should she beat Vinci: 6-1 against
Halep, 7-0 against Pennetta.
The mens seminals will be played afterward, beginning no sooner than 5 p.m.,
instead of the originally scheduled 3 p.m.
First will be Djokovic-Cilic, then FedererWawrinka.
It all makes for a lineup similar to the
U.S. Opens old Super Saturday schedule,

off that smaller field.
But league spokesman Brian McClintock
said the change had nothing to do with the
number of hits, home runs or no-hitters
being recorded by 13-year-olds. He said the
league doesnt even track those numbers.
It comes after a 2011 internal research
study, which among other things, found
parents and players wanted more opportunities to play with their classmates and more
opportunities for younger participants, he

Footballs best bets


Friday

The Scots were scuttled by Aragon, 33-0
last week. The Wildcats recorded a 20-9
victory over Mountain View. This will be
the eighth meeting between these two teams
since 2001, but only the first since 2012
when Woodside posted a 27-6 victory.
The last time Carlmont beat the Wildcats
was in 2002, 41-9, the second of back-toback wins over Woodside. The Wildcats
managed only 149 yards of offense last
week, but held Mountain View to just 169
defensively.

pummeled Capuchino 30-13. These
teams faced off last season, with

always-tough Blossom Valley Athletic
Leagues Mt. Hamilton Division. Last
season, Leland averaged just under 30
points per game. Burlingame rolled up
more than 300 yards of offense last week,
with quarterback Cameron Kelaita throwing
for 118 yards and a pair of scores in his first
varsity start, while running back Joevani

El Camino (0-0) at Aragon (1-0), 7 p.m.


The Colts saw Washington-SF forfeit the
day before last Saturdays season opener.

posted a 34-26 victory.

Harbor (0-1) at Sequoia (0-1), 7 p.m.

The rest
Friday
San Mateo (1-0) at Lynbrook (0-1), 7 p.m.

averaged 8.2 yards on 34 carries in last
weeks win. Josh Fakava led the way with
101 yards on just eight carries. San
Mateo QB Austin Salvail didnt throw a lot
last week, but he was efficient when he did.
He completed 5 of 8 attempts for 81 yards
and a touchdown. Lynbrook has lost 11
straight games after going 0-10 last season. In 2013, the Panthers went 7-3.

Half Moon Bay (1-0) at

Saratoga last week, 22-7. The Mustangs
were tamed by Irvington-Fremont, 43-20.

between these two teams. Lincoln won 4119 in 2012, but Hillsdale has won the last
two matchups: 27-14 in 2013 and 27-6 last
year. The Knights struggled on both
sides of the ball against Saratoga. They

was nearly as good, running for 105 yards
on eight carries.
The Tigers were taken down by Sacred
Heart Cathedral last week, 28-13. The
Hornets hammered Newark Memorial, 42-7.
Terra Nova was handcuffed by the fact it
was without leading rusher Reggie Auelea,
who is out the first four weeks because of
grades. Saini Saini picked up the slack in
Aueleas absence as the junior ran for 101
yards on 12 carries. The Tigers were limited to 270 yards of offense last week, with

yards with a touchdown and a pick.

Continued from page 11
Riordan was their lowest output of the season
until the CCS championship game, when it
also scored 14 points. This year, however, the
Gators offense may be one of the best in
Lavoratos tenure.
Simply because of quarterback Mason
Randall. Entering his third season as starting
varsity signal caller, Mason has all the tools to
be an elite passer in CCS. He threw for more
than 2,000 yards last season and is rapidly
closing in on the 4,000-yard mark for his
career.
I can say this, hes the best high school
quarterback Ive ever coached. I think he can
play college quarterback. He has all the intangibles, Lavorato said.
In the Gators 47-7 win over Leland in last
weeks season opener, Randall completed 11 of
15 passes for 223 yards and four touchdowns
against one interception.
But Randall is just but one cog in the welloiled machine that is the SHP offense. Despite
having a quarterback who could be an elite

passer, Lavorato continues with his run-first


philosophy. Its hard to argue against that. The
Gators rushed for 265 yards last week, led by
Lapitu Mahoni, who finished with 124 yards
on 15 carries. Last year, the Gators averaged
242 yard rushing per game.
Were not a passing team. Were a run-first
with balance, Lavorato said. But I can say
[Randall] is the kind of kid now I am absolutely not fearful of throwing the ball with on first
down. Mason is all about winning football
games. If he knows we can run the ball on other
teams, he says, Hey coach, lets run the ball.
SHP goes into Fridays game riding a 14game winning streak. A win or loss probably
wont make or break the Gators season,
because while Lavorato said he would love to
go undefeated, his main goal is simply to make
the playoffs and play one more game.
A win over Riordan Friday may go a long
way in determining into which playoff slot the
Gators may ultimately fall.
We havent lost a lot of games the last three
years. If we lose a game, it doesnt mean youre
not a good football team, Lavorato said. Our
goal is to make the playoffs. My ultimate goal
is to just play another game of football. If we
make the playoffs, we have one more game.

Thompson, Lee lead LPGAs Evian


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

EVIAN-LES-BAINS, France
Lexi
Thompson played a four-hole stretch in 5 under
and finished with a 5-under 66 on Thursday in
the Evian Championship for a share of the lead
with Mi Hyang Lee.
The 20-year-old Thompson began her run
with a birdie on the par-4 12th, hit a 7-iron to
20 feet to set up an eagle on the par-5 13th, and
added birdies on the par-3 14th and par-5 15th.
She parred the final 12 holes in her bogey-free
morning round in the major championship.
It feels great to have a stretch of holes like
that, Thompson said. But you just have to
take one shot at a time and not get ahead of yourself because, I mean, shots can get away from
you out here. If you hit it in the rough, the
roughs pretty thick.
Thompson won the Kraft Nabisco last year
for her first major title, and took the Meijer
Classic in July for her fifth career title. She has
three top-10 finishes in her last five starts, and
will play in the Solheim Cup matches next week
in Germany against Europe.
Obviously, Solheim Cup was my No. 1 goal

Brady throws four TDs in


28-21 win over Steelers
By Barry Wilner
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

FOXBOROUGH, Mass.
Whether sprinting out of the tunnel
for warmups, watching former
teammates and the Patriots owner
carrying Lombardi Trophies, or
tearing apart the Steelers, Tom
Brady relished every moment of this
NFL season opener.
It was a pretty special night,
said Brady, who threw for four
touchdowns, three to favorite target
Rob Gronkowski, in a 28-21 victory
Thursday night over undermanned
and generally ineffective Pittsburgh.
I was excited, our whole team was
excited. We havent had one of these
games in a long time.
It was as if he never was away. Of
course, he never really was, and
with Deflategate behind him, the
star quarterback was back to his
unstoppable self, going 25 of 32 for
288 yards.
Its always fun being out there
and getting an opportunity to go
play, added Brady, whose 161 victories are tops for a starting quarterback with one franchise in NFL history. He set a team-record with 19
straight completions; and he had his
23rd game with four or more touchdown passes, third all-time along
with Brett Favre.
We took advantage of it. It was a
good win.

week ago, the three-time Super
Bowl MVP was in midseason or

Anytime they dont cover Gronk,
he usually gets it, Brady noted with
a smile.
Gronkowski insisted this night
was all about Brady.
Everything hes been going
through all offseason, he just came
out and he was on fire,
Gronkowski said. I dont know his
stats or anything, but he was hitting
all of the open guys, reading the
defense well, calling the right plays.
Hes just unreal.
Showing some love for his other
tight end, newcomer Scott Chandler,
Brady hit him for a 1-yard score to
cap an 80-yard march with the second-half kickoff.
The outcome added to a festive
mood at Gillette Stadium, despite
persistent showers that didnt bother
the home team. Before kickoff, the
Patriots unveiled their fourth championship banner as owner Robert
Kraft and former players Troy
Brown, Willie McGinest and Ty
Law carried out New Englands four

The former Carolina player was

Commissioner Roger Goodell for

reduced the suspension on appeal.
Hardy missed all but one game with
Carolina last year while on the commissioners exempt list, but
received his $13 million salary.
Hardys decision comes after a
federal judge threw out Tom
Bradys four-game suspension in the
Deflategate scandal.

Obama honors arts luminaries including Sally Field


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON President Barack


Obama honored 21 individuals and organizations on Thursday for works that he says have
helped Americans connect and understand
each other a little better through the arts and
humanities.
The honorees included actress Sally Field,
author Stephen King and chef Alice Waters.
And to paraphrase one of Fields most famous
lines, when she accepted her second Oscar for
best actress, the president told the group: We
like you. We really like you.
Field, of Los Angeles, received the 2014

National Medal of Arts for showing dignity,


empathy and fearlessness in performances that
have touched audiences worldwide, as well as
for showing those same qualities in her offscreen advocacy for women, LGBT rights and
public health.

and health.
The National Endowment for the Arts and

the National Endowment for the Humanities

New federal food safety rules issued after deadly outbreaks


By Mary Clare Jalonick

The food safety problems we face


have one thing in common they are largely preventable.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Food manufacturers


must be more vigilant about keeping their
operations clean under new government safety
rules released Thursday in the wake of deadly
foodborne illness outbreaks linked to ice
cream, caramel apples, cantaloupes and
peanuts.
The rules, once promoted as an Obama
administration priority, ran into long delays
and came out under a court-ordered deadline
after advocacy groups had sued. Even then,
the Food and Drug Administration allowed the
Aug. 30 deadline to pass without releasing the
rules to the public.
The new rules will require food manufacturers to submit food safety plans to the government to show they are keeping their operations
clean. Once the rules go into effect later this

year, companies will have to prepare detailed


plans that lay out how they handle the food,
how they process it, how they clean their facilities and how they keep food at the right temperatures, among other safety measures.
The idea is to put more focus on prevention
in a system that for decades has been primarily reactive to outbreaks after they sicken or
even kill people. The majority of farmers and
food manufacturers already follow good food
safety practices, and the law would aim to
ensure that all do.
Michael Taylor, the FDAs deputy commissioner for foods, said the rules will create a
level playing field. He added: The food

safety problems we face have one thing in


common they are largely preventable.
The Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention estimate that 48 million people
or 1 in 6 people in the United States get sick
annually from foodborne diseases. An estimated 3,000 people die.
FDA investigators have often found dirty
equipment in food processing facilities after
deadly outbreaks. Agency reports issued after
the outbreaks linked to ice cream, caramel
apple and peanuts, among others, detailed processing facilities that were badly designed for
cleaning or not maintained in sanitary conditions.

Since then, Pablo has worked with


some of San Francisco's top restaurants
including, Campton Place, Restaurant
LuLu, Palio d'Asti, Red Herring, St. Regis
Hotel, Luce at Intercontinental Hotel
and Rose Pistola. Pablo spent time with
prominent culinary luminaries at Reed
Hearon and Laurent Manrique and was
even awarded a Michelin Star four years
in a row while at Luce. His palate and
sensibilities have been further refined by
traveling to Europe and the Americas.
In February, 2014, Pablo left Rose

In the Blue Bell ice cream outbreak this


year, FDA inspectors found many violations at
a company plant, including dirty equipment,
inadequate food storage, food held at improper temperatures and employees not washing
hands appropriately. Three listeria deaths were
linked to ice cream produced by the company.
A 2011 listeria outbreak linked to Colorado
cantaloupe killed 30 people. The FDA said
old, hard to clean equipment and improper
cooling were partly to blame for the illnesses.
The outbreak of salmonella linked to a
Georgia peanut company in 2009 killed nine
and sickened more than 700 people in 43
states. It was that outbreak, early in President
Barack Obamas first term, that prompted the
government to move forward on strengthening
the food safety system. An executive from that
company was recently convicted of selling salmonella-tainted food and could face life in
prison.

family and groups of friends, Peluso said. Also, when the film
came so close to beating Compton, there was a concerted
effort by AFFIRM and religious leaders to encourage supporters to turn out and help make it No. 1.
Its just a great story of a film that really filled a void in the
marketplace, with a message that the audience could really get
behind, said Paul Dergarabedian, senior media analyst for
box office tracker Rentrak.
There is a huge contingency of the American population
who do not go to movies. They have been burned too many
times, Stephen Kendrick said. Christians love good movies,
but too often their faith is ridiculed or mocked... Alex and I are
trying to make the kind of movies that we want to go see.
The perception that successful faith-based films seem to
come out of nowhere is born out of the reality that they are
very difficult to track accurately. Days before a films release,
most studios have a solid idea of exactly how its film will perform opening weekend. Faith-based audiences prove more
elusive to traditional metrics.
Tracking does a really good job of looking at frequent
movie goers and what their interests are. With faith-based
films, were bringing infrequent customers into the theaters,
Peluso said.
To generate buzz about War Room, all parties relied on the
traditional grassroots marketing techniques that have proved

WEEKEND JOURNAL
successful for other Christian films, including longstanding
relationships with religious leaders nationwide. One effort
involved organizing a free date night for pastors and their
wives to see the film in its entirety, so that they could choose
whether or not to endorse.
Both Peluso and Kendrick partially attribute the wild success to prayer, too.
We have learned that if you pray first the outcome is so
much better, said Kendrick, an ordained minister and member
of Sherwood Baptist Church in Albany, Georgia, where he and
his brother create videos to support ministry needs. This
entire movie has been prayed over from beginning to end.
Were seeing it now with what is happening there are no
Hollywood stars in the film, Alex and I are unknowns. We
dont live in Hollywood. We havent been to film school. But
we have prayed and prayed that God will use this film to
inspire people to begin to pray.
War Room also boasts a primarily African-American cast,
which isnt the norm for Christian films.
(The African-American community) so embraced it
because it was just an American family, period. There were no
race issues. It just was a great opportunity to engage in a beautiful story, Peluso said.
Their strategy now is to keep the buzz going while the movie
enters more markets. War Room will add more than 115
screens this weekend and will likely continue expanding.
Internationally, the film is boasting record numbers in Mexico,
Australia, and New Zealand, and soon itll be released in
Canada and South Africa. Plans also include more mainstream
marketing, securing Christian radio play for the films song
Warrior and capitalizing on the fan testimonials that now

THE DAILY JOURNAL


populate the films social media pages.
But while the financial success shines a spotlight on the film
and spreads awareness to a broader audience, for Kendrick,
money isnt the point.
We dont make movies to win awards and, actually, making
money is not the priority either, he said. We are ministers
and our goal is to inspire people with a message of faith, hope,
and love that will hopefully draw them into a better relationship with God.

Aurora flies into


new season with
Mud Blue Sky
By Judy Richter
DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT

Once upon a time, airline stewardess was considered a glamour


job for a young woman. Now not so
much.
Playwright Marisa Wegrzyn takes
that modern view in Mud Blue
Sky, presented by Aurora Theatre
Company to open its 24th season.
Three middle-aged stewardesses,
now called flight attendants, have a
reunion of sorts during a layover in
a hotel near Chicagos OHare.
Beth (Jamie Jones) and Sam
(Rebecca Dines) work flights
together. Their friend Angie (Laura
Jane Bailey), who lives nearby, was
fired by the airline because she had
gained too much weight.
Things begin to get dicey after
Beth connects with her 17-year-old
pot supplier, Jonathan (Devin S.
OBrien).
During the evening, the charac-

ters reflect on the past and ponder


the future.
Although the play has its serious
moments, it also can feel like a sitcom. The greatest pleasure comes
from watching these four talented
actors under the direction of artistic
director Tom Ross.
Dines displays her considerable
comic abilities as Sam, the most
daring of the four. Jones makes a
credible Beth, whos coping with a
painful back injury, trying to decide
what to do after retirement and
becoming a mother figure to
Jonathan.
Wearing a tuxedo after his prom
date ditched him that night.
OBriens clean-cut Jonathan, as
might be expected of a high school
senior, is wavering between boyhood and adulthood.
Baileys Angie is the least developed character, yet she has one of
the most poignant scenes as she
talks about her encounter with a

wheelchair.
Aided by Kurt Landismans lighting, the set by Kate Boyd easily
transitions between the hotel room
and an area outside. Chris Houstons
sound design is notable for the occa-

sional roar of jets overhead.


Wegrzyn packs a lot of information and many funny moments into
the plays 95 minutes (no intermission). While not entirely satisfactory, its nevertheless quite entertaining because of her script and

because of the care bestowed on it


by director Ross and the actors.

sis on aesthetics should have been part of the
plan.
Most of us didnt think we would reach the
office cap so quickly, Bain said about the
council.
Neither Bain nor Foust said they want to see
any more new offices built downtown beyond
what the precise plan allows.
Aguirre, too, said height limits and the timing
of development could have been given more
consideration in the plan, although, she noted it
took years to develop with a lot of community
input.
The market controls the growth, she said.
Masur said construction downtown should
have been more measured rather than so quickly. She said some of the buildings are maybe
too tall and that a lot of the citys newer residents were not able to provide their input into
the plan.
The new buildings, too, will strain the citys
already aging infrastructure, Masur said.
Borgens wants to push the pause button on
the precise plan also.
The plan could have better controlled the
pace of construction, she said.
We lost control of our plan, Borgens said.

Development east of Highway 101


When it comes to development east of
Highway 101, Borgens wants to see marsh land
in place where the current salt ponds are at
Cargill.
It provides more protection against sea level
rise, she said.
She would like to see more recreational uses
east of 101 but not so much housing.
She does, however, like the idea of exploring
the possibility of having more liveaboards on
the water such as Docktown.
I love the idea of a floating community, she
said.
Aguirre also doesnt like the idea of putting
more housing east of 101 especially considering
the threat of sea level rise.
She would like to see more recreational uses
provided near the Bayshore, especially near the

Port of Redwood City.


The port is such a great
asset, its prime for more
trails, she said.
Masur would also like to
see land east of the highway
remain open space. She is
also keen on bringing ferry
service to the port.
Sol doesnt want to see
Alicia Aguirre any more construction east
of 101 but does think the
city should support sustainable communities such as
Docktown, which would be
ideal on the Bayshore when
sea level rise hits.
Bain has reservations
about building east and
wants to keep the floating
homes in place perhaps at
Janet Borgens Ferrari Pond in the future.
He anticipates that
Cargill will come back to the council to build a
new smaller project on its salt ponds after
pulling its plans to build 12,000 homes on 1,400
acres three years ago.
Its not a good location for housing, Bain
said.
For Foust, Cargill was an ugly, divisive issue.
I would prefer that it doesnt come back,
she said about Cargills plans.
She does tout the completion of the Inner
Harbor plan later this year which will guide
future development decisions from Docktown
Marina north to the former Malibu Grand Prix
Raceway.
The plan looks to accommodate a mix of
habitat, recreational, educational, residential
and commercial uses in the Inner Harbor.

Affordable housing
The citys toughest issue, said Bain, is the
citys lack of affordable housing.
When the citys redevelopment agency was
still intact, Redwood City led the region in
building affordable housing, Bain said.
He does not favor rent control, however.
We need a mechanism at the state level to
restore our ability to build affordable housing,
he said.
The city has suffered too much displacement
with the areas skyrocketing rents, he said.

The city has engaged in


some innovative ways to
preserve affordable housing
by offering property owners
of aging buildings forgivable loans if they voluntarily install sprinkler systems.
Two big fires destroyed
hundreds of units of affordable housing on Woodside
Ian Bain
Road in recent years.
Foust is looking forward
to the countys formation of
Closing the Gap, the San
Mateo County Affordable
Housing Task Force that
will meet for the first time
Sept. 24.
The housing problem is a
regional issue, she said.
She opposes rent control
Shelly Masur but said some greedy,
nasty landlords have taken
advantage of the market.
Foust is hoping that developers will provide
community benefits to support the construction
of affordable housing in the future after the
completion of a nexus study that links the
development of new commercial buildings to
the need for affordable housing.
Sol too does not think rent control is the
solution.
She wants the city to pursue more alternative
housing such as floating or tiny homes or other
accessory dwelling units.
Aguirre too is looking for developers to provide community benefits in exchange for building in the city.
Hopefully, developers will realize they need
to give back to the community, Aguirre said.
Masur said the citys community benefits
plan should have been in place before all the
new construction was undertaken.
She thinks the council should consider using
city-owned land to build housing for teachers or
city employees.
Borgens said too that the lack of affordable
housing is a regional issue.
We need to bring all stakeholders to the table
and determine the problem but we cannot tell
property owners what they can make or not
make on their investments, Borgens said.
If the city had a one-time $5 million surplus,

THE DAILY JOURNAL


Borgens would spend it on
housing, infrastructure such
as rehabilitating storm
drains and bringing recycled water west of El
Camino Real.
The city, however, has set
aside enough money for
capital improvement projects, Aguirre said.
Rosanne Foust
She would spend the $5
million on affordable housing.
Masur would spend the
money on creating more
parks, open space and
upgrading city facilities.
Foust would spend a portion of the surplus on paying
down the citys pension and
health liabilities but said the
citys strongest need is
Tania Sol
affordable housing.
Sol would spend it on housing and Bain
would spend it on more community policing
services and paying down pension liabilities.

Differing opinions
of council decisions
When it comes to bad decisions the council
has made in recent years, Bain said the decision
to restripe Farm Hill Boulevard may have been
the wrong one.
The projections from staff and traffic experts
on the impact of restriping was a glowy one,
Bain said.
Sol said the worst decision has been to allow
for the construction of all the new offices which
has created a jobs/housing imbalance in the city.
Foust agreed that residents may not have seen
a thoughtful approach to the citys decision to
restripe Farm Hill Boulevard and Jefferson
Avenue.
Aguirre too is rethinking the Farm Hill decision.
She said the pilot program to make the thoroughfare safer was done in a way that hit residents by surprise, which it should not have
done.
Masur said the city should have had a plan in
place to collect impact fees from developers

week a long-term funding solution for
fixing and maintaining Californias
roads and highways next decade.
The announcement, which came late.
Instead, Atkins said the Legislature will
form a special committee this fall to
figure out how to pay for an estimated
$59 billion backlog in state repairs over
the
Wednesday, was disappointing to a
broad coalition of business, labor and
local governments pushing for bipartisan compromise.
We would like to see a solution as
soon as possible, but we want to see the
right solution, said Rob Lapsley, president of the California Business
Roundtable, which represents private
employers.
Lawmakers of both parties agree that
the states transportation tax structure is
out of date, leaving Californias roads
and bridges crumbling. They say they
cant keep relying on a gas tax that hasnt risen in 20 years as more fuel-effi-

exists at the site bordered by San
Carlos Avenue to the north and Laurel
Street to the west another idea
includes using the SamTrans garage
across the street.
Valet parking is assumed for both
plans.
The existing Wheeler Plaza parking
lot has a total of 187 parking spaces,
with 142 public spaces, four accessible
spaces and 41 permit spaces. During
construction of the proposed residential
development, the lot will be closed and
the project developer is required to alleviate the loss of public parking spaces on
the Wheeler Plaza lot, according to a city
document.

COUNCIL

through a community benefits program
as it approved the Downtown Precise
Plan.
Borgens said the council was close to
making a decision earlier that year and it
would have modified the precise plan
negatively.
They were going to increase the cap
on office and I was hugely against it,
Borgens said.
Borgens calls herself a listener and said
residents want to have simple conversations about the issues they care about.

cient and electric vehicles share the


road.
The coalition proposed last month
raising at least $6 billion a year by
increasing gasoline and vehicle taxes,
tapping revenue from the states capand-trade fund and adopting state efficiencies and reforms.
Gov. Jerry Brown offered a scaleddown $3.6 billion-a-year spending
plan, with some of the money to come
from a $65 annual fee on vehicle registrations and increases in diesel and gas
taxes tied to inflation. His plan included concessions sought by Republicans
such as streamlining environmental
reviews for infrastructure repairs and
extending public-private partnerships.
That plan didnt receive adequate
support, but the Democratic governor
said there is time.
The roads are going to get fixed,
Brown said during a press conference.
Its just a question of when.
Lawmakers also are continuing to
negotiate funding for Medi-Cal, the
states medical insurance program for
the poor that has grown to cover roughly one in three Californians.
The governor has asked lawmakers to
expand a tax now levied on health plans

that contract with Medi-Cal to include


most insurers regulated by the
Department of Managed Health Care to
generate at least $1.1 billion a year.
Lawmakers also want to find ways to
increase funding to support the developmentally disabled.
Sen. Ed Hernandez, D-La Puente,
chairman of the Senates health care
special session committee, led a hearing Thursday on his proposal to raise
tobacco taxes and change how the state
taxes health plans.
I am very optimistic that we will
hopefully, hopefully get something
done by Friday, Hernandez said.
But Senate Minority Leader Jean
Fuller, R-Bakersfield, said theres no
need to tax California families.
The 2015 cycle has already been
marked by setbacks for Democrats who
control both houses of Californias
Legislature.
The majority party was forced to
drop a mandate to cut oil use from their
climate change proposal amid fierce
opposition from business groups and
oil companies. A scaled-down version
of the bill, SB350, to increase renewable energy use to 50 percent has yet to
be voted on.

The project includes 109 condominiums for sale, a new public parking structure and about 10,000 square feet of new
retail space in the heart of downtown.
Businesses in city-owned property on
San Carlos Avenue have already been
vacated to make way for demolition.
With the two parking strategies implemented, there would still be a parking
shortfall of approximately 16 parking
spaces. Currently, there are 41 permit
parking spaces in the Wheeler Plaza lot.
All or a portion of these could be moved
to the Caltrain station lot, pending confirmation from a parking count to determine if excess capacity is available,
according to the city document.
Wheeler Plaza, along with the Transit
Village project on nearby El Camino
Real, represents a $200 million investment by the private sector in the city.
The current plans for Wheeler Plaza
by Silverstone Communities first came

to the council back in 2009.


The project includes the parking lot
behind Laurel Street and San Carlos
Avenue, fronting Walnut Street and several city-owned buildings along San
Carlos Avenue and Laurel Street. One is
a six-unit rental housing building and
another the former Foodville Market.
The entire space is approximately 2.65
acres, sitting roughly 300 feet southwest
of the Caltrain station, two blocks from
City Hall and straddling areas of both
retail and multi-family housing.
The Foodville building, however, is
not a part of the condominium project
and will be developed later after
Wheeler Plaza is completed. Part of that
lot is expected to become a public plaza.

that, Borgens said. Its not about me.


Its about the decisions I make that affect
the city.
She would like to see councilmembers
assigned districts so that they have direct
contact with the neighborhoods.
Masur said her experience on the
school board will make her a good councilmember. She wants to build on bringing more collaboration between the city
and its schools. She would make pedestrian and bicycle safety a priority if elected.
Aguirre wants to connect residents in
every way we can to create a better
sense of community.
Bain admits he is often the lone voice
of dissent on the seven-seat council but
said his approach is always evidencedbased and that he does so with respect for

the other councilmembers.


Sol said the council needs a completely new face.
Most candidates either first sit on the
Planning Commission or school board
before running for office, she said.
They have been indoctrinated and I
have not been indoctrinated, Sol said.
Foust said shes proud of the 12 years
she has been on the council to revitalize
downtown and protect the neighborhoods.
She touts the Redwood Shores Library,
restoration of Bair Island and Courthouse
Square as some of the major accomplishments the city has had while she has
served.
This years election is a first for the
county as it will be conducted primarily
by mail. Election Day is Nov. 3.

NOTICE OF PETITION TO
ADMINISTER ESTATE OF
Edward S. Suen aka Edward Shaw-Lee
Suen and Edward Suen
Case Number: 126043
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or estate, or both, of: Edward S. Suen aka Edward Shaw-Lee Suen and Edward Suen.
A Petition for Probate has been filed by
Lawrence Barbetta in the Superior Court
of California, County of San Mateo. The
Petition for Probate requests that Lawrence Barbetta be appointed as personal
representative to administer the estate of
the decedent.
The petition requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent
Administration of Estates Act. (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval. Before taking certain
very important actions, however, the personal 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 objection 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: Oct 5, 2015 at 9:00
a.m., Dept. 28, Superior Court of California, County of San Mateo, 400 County
Center, Redwood City, CA 94063.
If you object to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing
and state your objections or file written
objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person
or by your attorney.
If you are a creditor or a contingent creditor 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 representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the
California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days

Migrants long and winding road


to Europe turns cold and muddy
By Shawn Pogatchnik
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BUDAPEST, Hungary Soaked to


the bone and ankle deep in mud, thousands of people seeking refuge in
Europe are finding that their path to a
new life is growing harder by the hour.
Torrential rains poured as an
unprecedented 7,000 trekkers crossed
the Greek border into Macedonia on
Thursday past rows of camouflagejacketed police. Children stumbled
into mud-filled potholes and had to
be pulled back out, bawling, into
their mothers arms. People struggled
to find anything plastic sheets,
garbage bags, even a beach umbrella
to shield themselves from an unre-

lenting deluge.
And yet nothing could dampen their
hopes of reaching the heart of Europe,
where asylum and border security systems are already in danger of being
overwhelmed in the migration crisis.
Im not going to be afraid of anything, said Waseem Absi, a 30-year-old
from Ariha in northern Syria, as he held
a disassembled pup tent over his head
and trudged up a muddy slope alongside
four friends. He said he hopes to reunite
with relatives in the Netherlands.
The sudden onset of autumn has taken
tens of thousands by surprise all along
the Balkans route from Greece to
Hungary, the main gateway to Western
Europe for more than 160,000 asylum
seekers already this year.

LIBRARY
Continued from page 3
umbrella of community learning.
Anixter echoed those sentiments.
Libraries are more of a community center
for learning, she said. We are enhancing the
space for todays needs to keep the library relevant for the 21st century.
McCulley said the multimedia study rooms,
which are secluded areas for large teams to
work together on group projects, have been
one of the most popular new features.
The services offered in the study rooms
have especially resonated with teens and

As recently as last week, those making the epic journey, much of it on foot,
were baking in a region-wide heat wave
and free to sleep under the stars. Now
theyre without shelter and struggling to
keep campfires burning, highlighting
the inadequate support provided by several European governments at each border crossing.
Conditions also rapidly deteriorated
on Hungarys southern border with
Serbia, where an estimated 3,000
crossed at an approved rail site or illegally by ducking under the razor-wire
marking that frontier. Garbage-strewn
fields turned to mud, trapping relief
agency trucks whose wheels spun and
flecked passing migrants with sodden
earth.

young adults who appreciate having space set


aside where groups can work together on
homework or class projects while accessing
the wealth of resources offered by the library,
said McCulley.
We have made it very comfortable and
beautiful for them, said Amy Gettle, the circulation supervisor at the library, of the study
rooms for teens.
And to see the popularity of the new services with a younger audience serves as confirmation the librarys updated vision hit its
marks, she said.
Its very satisfying, she said. We did the
right thing.
But despite the variety of technological
advances offered through the renovation,

U.N. chief says will repatriate
peacekeepers over sex abuse
UNITED NATIONS The U.N. chief is taking aim at sexual abuse by peacekeepers, one of my greatest disappointments, saying he will repatriate the troops of countries that
dont act on allegations and has already started to suspend payments to countries when allegations are credible.
Ban Ki-moons statements are in response to the first comprehensive assessment of peacekeeping in 15 years and largely agree with a high-level panels suggestions for a major
overhaul. The U.N. has more than 105,000 troops and police
in 16 missions in some of the worlds most dangerous places.
Member states contribute the personnel and receive monthly
payments in return.
The report with Bans response intended for public release
Friday, but the Associated Press found it on a U.N. website
Thursday.
The changes come as President Barack Obama prepares to
host a major U.N. meeting later this month aimed at drawing
European and other developed countries back to peacekeeping
with their funding and skills in intelligence-gathering, engineering, air support and medical care.

Gettle said there is still an emphasis on the


value of books.
Computers have really changed our lives.
The Internet has changed our lives, she said.
But books are still important, especially in
the early years.
And in an effort to keep an eye toward preserving the traditional services offered by the
library, Gettle said it was important to officials overseeing the renovation that the building maintain much of its original design character.
We didnt want to lose that same feel of the
Burlingame Library, she said.
McCulley said striking a balance between
meeting the traditional service model of the
library against the modern demands of users

can be challenging.
We were trying to find that right equilibrium, he said.
Ultimately though, McCulley said he is
proud the entire new, improved library is
finally open to the public after months of
being able to offer only a portion of its services due to construction.
Its been great, he said. Were open and
finally able to offer all of these services.
Anixter credited the charitable donations of
local residents for making the renovation project possible.
We would not have been able to do this
without the generosity of our donors, she
said. Donors from Burlingame and
Hillsborough really stepped up.
