San Mateo closing in on grade separation

Plans relocate Caltrain Hillsdale station, create
new crossings at 25th, 28th and 31st avenues
By Samantha Weigel
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
With more trains slated to travel the

Peninsula corridor as Caltrain gets
electrified and high-speed rail plans to
share its tracks, the city of San Mateo
is looking toward upcoming grade separation projects as key components to
alleviating traffic impacts and improving safety.

tracks at 25th Avenue and officials are

seeking nearly $94 million from the
state as the city and Caltrain hope to
break ground next year.
The entire $180 million project also
includes relocating the Hillsdale
Caltrain station further north and creating new grade separated crossings at
31st as well as 28th avenues currently the roads dead-end at El Camino
Real and dont intersect the tracks.
Numerous communities along the 51
miles of future electric tracks between
San Francisco and San Jose are also

hoping to find the means to raise areas
of the popular rail line above street
traffic.
Brad Underwood, San Mateos director of Public Works, said the city is not
alone in seeking grade separations as
an increased number of trains will
carry more commuters through the
region.

San Carlos extends

ban on lot splitting
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
Residential property owners in San

Carlos must now work under pre-2011 zoning rules if they want to subdivide their
large parcels as the council extended an
urgency ordinance to ban lot splitting into
next year.
The council recently passed a 45-day
moratorium and extended it by 10 months
and 15 days at its Monday night meeting on
a 4-0 vote.
The council rolled back the rules because
residents started to complain about homes
being built too big on lot sizes that were
too small.
City staff will now prepare permanent
zoning changes related to development
standards addressing lot size, lot width and
flag lots in residential neighborhoods that
the council will consider as soon as January.
The urgency ordinance rolls back to
before 2011 and allows for the construction
of homes on minimum lot sizes of 10,000
square feet with a lot width of 65 feet.
The 2011 zoning changes to allow for the
construction of larger homes in San Carlos
and for large lots to be split to increase the
citys housing stock came under fire by city
residents in recent months.
The changes made in 2011 allowed for the
construction of homes on lots of 5,000
square feet with a minimum lot width of 45
feet.
The 2011 zoning changes allowed property owners to build on 50 percent of their
lots rather than 40 percent called maximum lot coverage.
The decision was made to allow property
owners of many of the citys smaller lots,
about 4, 000 square feet, to be able to

The city has approved six subdivisions
since the new rules went into effect nearly
five years ago.
Some residents complained about how
some property owners were able to subdivide their lots of 10,000 square feet or more,
demolish the existing home and build two
new ones.
Since 2011, the Planning Commission
approved six subdivisions including a
41,637-square-foot lot at 1336 Arroyo Ave.
that allowed for the construction of three
new homes. In total, the six split lots have
generated nine new homes in the city since
2011.
A 10,504-square-foot lot at 2115 White
Oak Way was split in two and generated one
of the new homes. Other subdivisions were
approved for Club Drive, Eaton and
Carmelita avenues.
Of the about 8,200 single-family lots in
the city, about 1,750 of them sit on lot sizes
of 10,000 square feet or more.
The San Mateo County Association of
Realtors opposed the urgency ordinance
claiming it constituted a taking of private
property rights.
The group argued that limiting new home
construction was unacceptable considering
the regions current housing crisis.

Hillsborough man
charged in deaths of workers
A Hillsborough man has been charged
with involuntary manslaughter and labor
code violations in connection with the
deaths of two workers at a Bernal Heights
granite company in 2014, San Francisco
District Attorney George Gascon announced
Thursday.
Meng Peng, 66, faces two counts of
involuntary manslaughter and three violations of labor codes due to the deaths of
Philip Marich, a 53-year-old South San
Francisco resident and Hector Vasquez, a 46year-old Oakland resident, on Feb. 17,
2014.
Marich and Vasquez were removing granite from a shipping container at Galaxy
Granite, Inc. at 1525 Cortland Ave. when
the heavy slabs fell on them at 10:16 a.m.,
fire officials said at the time.
Marich was pronounced dead at the scene,
while Vasquez was pronounced dead at San
Francisco General Hospital.
Peng, the companys owner, allegedly
violated workplace safety procedures by
failing to assess the hazards of moving the
granite slabs or properly train his employees.
Employers cannot simply send their
workers into hazardous work conditions
untrained and without the appropriate equipment, Gascon said in a statement.
California employers must vigilantly
assess employees conditions and work
methods when requiring their workers to
engage in dangerous tasks. Peng was
arrested on Monday and is currently out of
custody on $600,000 bail, with arraignment scheduled for Friday afternoon.

Caltrain replacing
Gallery cars with Bombardiers
On Monday, July 25, Caltrain will be
replacing some five-car Gallery train sets
with six-car Bombardier train sets.
Instead of five-car Gallery cars carrying
passengers on train numbers 134, 155, 217
and 268, those loads are now being taken
by six-car Bombardier trains. Train numbers 155 and 217 travel in the northbound
direction, with 217 originating in Gilroy.
Train numbers 134 and 268 travel in the
southbound direction, with 268 providing
service to Gilroy.
The train-swap will allow Caltrain to take
more passengers on those trips, as carrying
capacity will increase with the extra
Bombardier car, according to Caltrain.
The number of bikes will stay about the
same, as the Bombardier trains will feature
three bike cars, capable of carrying 72 twowheelers. The Gallery alignment allowed
Caltrain to carry 80 bikes. Gallery cars are
the more-traditional trains on the
Caltrain system, featuring two passenger
levels and a box design. The Bombardier
trains have a sleeker look to them, and contain three different passenger seating levels. The Bombardier trains also feature table
seating on the top level, according to
Caltrain.

Hantavirus risk in San Mateo County

Evidence of hantavirus infection in deer
mice collected during routine rodent-borne
disease surveillance has been found by officials with the San Mateo County Mosquito
and Vector Control District.
The most recent samples were collected
during May and June in the vicinity San
Bruno Mountain and Montara, according to
the district.
Since 1998, hantavirus has been detected
routinely throughout San Mateo County,
including at San Bruno Mountain, the
Crystal Springs Watershed and Wunderlich
Park, according to the district.
There has never been a human case of
hantavirus acquired in San Mateo County,
said District Manager Dr. Chindi Peavey,
but we do know that hantavirus circulates
at low levels in deer mouse populations in
our county.
Hantavirus is a viral disease carried by
wild rodents in California, by deer mice
in the genus Peromyscus and is transmitted when humans breathe in dust contaminated with the urine, saliva or droppings of
infected rodents. Rodents such as house
mice, roof rats or Norway rat do not carry
hantavirus, according to the district.
Symptoms of hantavirus infection usually develop between one and eight weeks following exposure. Early symptoms include
fatigue, fever and muscle aches, followed by
a severe respiratory infection that is often
fatal. There is no treatment, cure or vaccine,
according to the district.
For more information on rodent-proofing
structures or safely cleaning up rodent
infestations, or to request a rodent inspection for your property, contact San Mateo
County Mosquito and Vector Control
District at (650) 344-8592 or go to

Man arrested for alleged

hit-and-run, driving while impaired
A man was arrested in San Bruno Sunday
night in connection with a hit-and-run,
according to police.
Police said officers responded to the area
of San Anselmo Avenue South and Santa
Dominga Avenue at 10:26 p.m. on reports
of a reckless driver.
The driver allegedly lost control of his
vehicle and crashed into a parked car before
fleeing on foot.
An investigation identified the driver of
the vehicle as 19-year-old Rajneel Singh of
San Bruno.
Officers located Singh shortly after the
incident, where he appeared to have been
driving under the influence.
Singh was arrested on suspicion of a hitand-run and driving while impaired and
booked into the San Mateo County Jail.
City College reaches contract deal with
faculty union, averts strike
City College of San Francisco officials
Thursday announced a tentative contract
agreement with the faculty union that averts
a threatened strike and gives faculty their
first real pay increase since 2007.
The deal includes a mix of ongoing salary
increases and one-time raises that restore a
salary cut taken in 2011-12 and increase
salaries by at least 6.7 percent over a threeyear period, according to district officials.
That amount could be higher if the district
is successful in restoring enrollment after a
recent decline caused by problems in the
districts accreditation.

Ginsburg apologizes for
ill-advised criticism of Trump
WASHINGTON Conceding her outspoken criticism of
Donald Trump was ill advised, Supreme Court Justice
Ruth Bader Ginsburg apologized
Thursday in an effort to quiet mounting
complaints that she improperly crossed
a line into partisan politics.
Promising to be more discreet in the
future, the leader of the courts liberal
wing said in a statement that judges
should not comment on candidates for
any public office.
On reflection, my recent remarks in
Ruth Ginsburg
response to press inquiries were illadvised and I regret making them, the 83-year-old justice
said.
Ginsburg told the Associated Press last week that she did
not want to think about the prospect of the Republican
winning the presidency over Democrat Hillary Clinton.

hall meeting recorded to be broadcast

More time than Obama has left in
office, he readily conceded.
As 32-year-old Philando Castiles
funeral was underway in St. Paul,
Minnesota, Obama took a question
remotely from Diamond Reynolds,
Castiles girlfriend, who livestreamed
the aftermath of his shooting by
police on Facebook. She said shes
scared for her daughters future and
asked the president, What do we do?
Choosing his words carefully,
Obama said its key for officers to get
to know the community theyre protecting. Also critical, he said, was to
better train police to avoid implicit
biases.

Trump postpones VP pick,

citing attacks in France
By Julie Pace and Jill Colvin
WASHINGTON Donald Trump

abruptly postponed plans to announce
his vice presidential pick following a
day of rampant speculation, citing the
horrible attack in Nice, France, that
left scores dead.
Trump had planned to hold his first
event with his yet-to-be-named running mate Friday morning in New
York. He announced the change of
plans Thursday evening on Twitter.
The stunning announcement raised
questions about the status of Trumps
selection process. Indiana Gov. Mike
Pence had emerged as a late favorite for
the job, though Trump said he had not
finalized the pick and advisers cautioned he could change his mind.
I havent made my final, final decision, Trump said on Fox News
Channel. He said that while his running
mate selection would absolutely not
be changed by the France attack, he did
not feel it was appropriate to hold a
news conference in its aftermath.
Dozens of people were killed late
Thursday in the French resort city of
Nice when a truck drove onto a sidewalk and plowed through a crowd of
Bastille Day revelers whod gathered
to watch fireworks. Trump told Fox
News after the attack that if hes elected president he would ask Congress for
a declaration of war on the Islamic
State group.
In addition to Pence, Trumps vice

presidential shortlist included former
House Speaker Newt Gingrich and New
Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, according
to people familiar with the candidates
thinking.
After spending much of Thursday in
Indianapolis, Pence flew to New York
late in the day, according to a
Republican familiar with the process.
Indianapolis television station WTHR
posted a video showing Pence arriving
at a private airport outside New York
early Thursday evening.
Trump did not say when he planned
to announce his running mate. Hes up
against a clock: The Republican convention kicks off in Cleveland
Monday.
Poll: More people think life improves under Clinton

WASHINGTON Americans have

mixed feelings on which presidential
candidate will do better on health care,
trade, the economy, terrorism and
other important issues. But when they
simply consider whether they personally would be better off, they prefer
Democrat Hillary Clinton.
The latest Associated Press-GfK
poll shows that Americans are more
likely to think people like themselves would benefit more from a
Clinton White House than one run by
Republican Donald Trump, by 36 per-
cent to 29 percent.
They also are
much more likely to
think women, LGBT
people, Hispanics,
Muslims and blacks
would be better off
under Clinton, while
they largely think
Hillary Clinton men and whites
would be better off
under Trump.
Miles Kafka, 43, of Brooklyn, New
York, said his life would definitely
be better under Clinton because

supported Gov. John Kasich, R-Ohio,

Shell get the best done that she
can, Kafka said, adding that both
Trump and Clinton were too aggressive on foreign policy for his taste.
Sydney Sullivan, 21, a college student from Lynbrook, New York, echoed
those sentiments.
I definitely think shell support
women and minorities a lot better than
Trump would. I think she has a better
idea of the oppression that women and

Governors descend on Iowa

to focus on policy, not politics
By Ryan J. Foley
DES MOINES, Iowa For a change, governors will get

to see Iowa without campaigning for the White House.
Half the nations governors are expected in Des Moines
for the summer meeting of the National Governors
Association, which began Thursday and runs through the
weekend. The states top executives are expected to discuss
a range of policy challenges, including the opioid crisis,
international trade, relations between law enforcement and
minorities, and cybersecurity threats.
Still, presidential politics will be in the air as the two
leading candidates get closer to choosing a running mate.
Indiana Gov. Mike Pence had been expected to attend the
meeting, but it was unclear whether he would as he emerged
as one of the top candidates to be Donald Trumps vice presidential pick.
U.S. Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack, a former Iowa
governor who is scheduled to speak during the meeting
Saturday, is not denying speculation that he is being considered by Hillary Clinton.

Unable to stop Syrias war, U.S.

offers Russia new partnership T
By Bradley Klapper
MOSCOW The United States on

Thursday offered Russia a broad new military
partnership in Syria, hoping the attraction
of a unified campaign against the Islamic
State group and al-Qaida and a Russian
commitment to ground Syrias bombers
could end five years of civil war. If finalized,
the deal could dramatically alter Americas
role in the conflict.
U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry met
Russian President Vladimir Putin in the
Kremlin on Thursday to present him the new
ideas. The eight-page proposal, which The
Washington Post published on its website,
shows the U.S. offering intelligence and targeting sharing, and even joint bombing
operations. It is a pact Moscow long had
wanted, but the Obama administration resisted.
Hopefully well be able to make some
genuine progress that is measurable and
implementable and that can make a difference in the course of events in Syria, Kerry
said.
Putin said he was looking

for
tangible
results.
The proposal would
undercut months of U.S.
criticism of Russias military actions in Syria,
and put the United States
alongside
Syrian
President
Bashar
Assads
John Kerry
chief
international
backer, despite years of
American demands for
the to leave power.
Russia would get what
it has wanted since intervening in Syria on
Assads
behalf last
September: leadership of
an international anti-terVladimir Putin rorism alliance.
Much of Washington
is wary about working too closely with
Russia. A dissent cable signed by 51 State
Department officials last month showed a
sizable part of Americas diplomatic establishment believing a U.S. military response
against Assads forces was necessary.

Tax breaks to benefit struggling homeowners

Other voices
The Sacramento Bee
alifornia tax collectors should

stop rubbing salt in the wounds of
homeowners still trying to recover from the mortgage meltdown.
By tax collector we mean Gov. Jerry
Brown.
The issue involves the remnants of the
mortgage crisis, which struck hardest in
the Central Valley. People bought homes
they could not afford at inated prices.
When the market tumbled, their mortgages
were underwater.
Following state and federal dictates,
banks modify home loans, forgive some of
the debt, and allow for short sales. The difference between the loan amount and the
amount discounted by the lender could be
considered income and subject to taxes.
The amounts forgiven are in the tens of
thousands of dollars or more, although
homeowners never actually see any cash.
Its a paper transaction. Still, people struggling to get back on their feet could face
nasty ve-gure tax bills.
Congress has relieved taxpayers in such
circumstances of federal income taxes. Sen.
Cathleen Galgiani, D-Stockton, introduced
Senate Bill 907 to give people a break
from state income taxes. The bill passed
the Senate 39-0, and cleared its rst
Assembly committee without a no-vote.
A similar bill by Assemblyman Henry
Perea, a Fresno Democrat, passed both
houses unanimously in 2015. But frugal
Brown vetoed it along with several other
tax breaks, warning of coming nancial
uncertainties.
Tax credits, like new spending on programs, need to be considered comprehensively as part of the budget deliberations,
he wrote in his veto message.
We adhere to that view. But unlike many
APokelypse
tax breaks, the one created by Galgianis

bill would be of limited duration, and the
cost to the state would decline from $95
million in the rst year to $12 million in
the nal year, 2017-18.
Backers include Realtors, bankers, and
mortgage companies, and Attorney General
Kamala Harris, not bankers natural ally.
But Harris has a stake in the outcome, having helped negotiate settlements requiring
that mortgage lenders modify loans for
homeowners ensnared by the mortgage crisis.
For many Californians, particularly ones
who live in coastal areas, the mortgage crisis is a distant memory. Their home prices
have more than recovered. But thats not
the case in much of the Central Valley.
The Assembly should approve SB 907, as
it did Pereas bill. And Brown should reconsider his position. The governor has
looked for ways to help the Central Valley
out of its economic doldrums. By making
this narrow exception, he could give some
relief to folks who could use a break.
Letters to the editor

Burlingame construction rules
Editor,
Thank you for your recent article about
new construction hours for the city of
Burlingame (July 7).
With so many construction projects
going on all over town, there needs to be a
balance to provide neighbors with some
respite.
Just in my own immediate neighborhood,
there are ve major new home projects
going on within a range of 150 feet from
my house.
Construction starts at or before 7 a.m.
and continue till 7 p.m. or later almost
every day.
For those of us who live near the job
sites, the ceaseless noise can be unbearable
and the associated nuisance of truck deliveries that block streets is a nightmare.
I understand the need for families to
improve or expand their homes but most of
these families are living elsewhere while
their dream homes are being built.
Thank you Burlingame City Council for
voting to prohibit construction on
Sundays and holidays plus moving start
time to 8 a.m. weekdays.

The sheriff is not simply a paid government employee; the role of the sheriff is
not the same as that of a local citys police
chief. If one understands the history of the
sheriffs role, going all the way back to the
time of the Anglo Saxons and King Alfred
the Great, through the Magna Carta of
1215, and into the framers writing of the
U.S. Constitution in 1787, one would have
to appreciate the very important role the
sheriff plays in our republic. In Federalist
45, James Madison alluded to this role
when he wrote about the checks and balances designed not only into the three
branches of the federal government, but
also to be carried out by the state governments, on down to the local jurisdictions.
In a recent Supreme Court Case, Mack v.
U.S., (1994), the importance of the sheriffs role relative to the people was again
demonstrated and recognized. The paramount role of the sheriff is to act as an
elected representative of the people with
unique, and I would say superior powers, of
any other elected ofcial.
Were I Carlos Bolanos, given the gravity
of the ofce he will assume the duties of, I
would reject the actions of the Board of
Supervisors and insist that they put the
decision to the voters of San Mateo County
on the November ballot. There is still time
for such an action to take place.
Appointing the sheriff

Editor,
It was hugely disappointing to see that
the Board of Supervisors chose to appoint
Carlos Bolanos to the sheriffs position
rather than place the question on this
Novembers ballot for the people to decide
(Bolanos named sheriff in the July 13

Should be no longer than 600 words.
Illegibly handwritten letters and anonymous letters will not
(Letter: Second Amendment), except I

think he was trying to be serious.
The Bill of Rights, like the Bible, should
be read before being quoted. The First
Amendment, often referred to as the separation of church and state, clearly states,
Congress shall make no law respecting an
establishment of religion, or prohibiting
the free exercise thereof. So every one of
Mr. Fotis assertions about us having been
a Christian-based society are at-out
wrong. Its not the corporate elite behind
this it was the Founding Fathers and
authors of the Bill of Rights. We were
founded as a secular society to protect us
from religious fanaticism.
The current discussions about gun control
have nothing to do with the Second
Amendment regardless of how you interpret it. Making it harder for suspected terrorists or people with mental illness to
obtain weapons is not an infringement on
you God-fearing gun-toting pseudoChristians. You may go arm yourselves and
shoot each other all you want; nobody is
coming for your blessed guns other than an
attempt to get certain mass-murdering
weapons off the market.
As for Mr. Fotis statement, the corporate elite have now accomplished their goal
by causing the violence that we are experiencing now, thats delusional. Mr. Foti
should go back to ghting abortion; while
I disagree with him on that, at least there
are valid arguments on both sides of that
issue.

our populace becomes basically brain dead.
If one were to adhere to this belief, then
you cant but fear the recent popularity of
Pokemon Go, an enhanced reality game that
is becoming more and more popular since it
was released last week.
For me, the realization of this game was a
slow one. I am
accustomed to
spotting a variety of people
immersed in
their phone as
they wander the
streets. But they
are usually solo
and hold the
phone in one
hand while
doing the finger
scroll or tap.
This past weekend was different, in that there
were groups of
people and they were looking at their
phones as if it were some sort of portal. I
assumed perhaps it was some sort of scavenger hunt this weekend only. Upon checking Twitter, which I am prone to do sporadically during the weekend, I saw some mentions of people wandering about and that
seemed to add to my newfound theory.
Then on Sunday, at a beach picnic, I saw
more groups wandering about in the same
manner. One bunch I actually had concern
about since it appeared they might actually
walk into the ocean. Another was in a moving car with every one of the four occupants
holding up their phone in front of them.
That too seemed dangerous. So I did further
online exploration to see that this was in
fact this new Pokemon Go game and these
groups of people were seeking to, I think,
capture Pokemons or monsters or balls or
whatever.
So come Monday, I saw that this game
was all the rage and that there were some
warnings about people playing it injuring
themselves or otherwise getting into harms
way. There is also the matter of the privacy
policy, which I read meant having your
emails read and your locations tracked and
other things that could be sold to third parties. I guess thats common, but seems a bit
much to give up that much of your private
information to play a free game. Then
again, I now understand that the policy has
been scaled back and does not require so
much personal information.
Still, I will not be playing this game and
will actively urge people I care about from
playing as well, similar to how I urge a
friend not to pick up a heroin needle (not
that Ive done that, or have I been in that
situation, but you get the idea).
There are some who say there are positives about the game in that it gets people
outside interacting with the environment
and others, but the beauty of being a free
individual is that you dont need a phone or
a game to do that. You will need some shoes
and clothes, maybe a hat if its sunny, but
thats about it. Outside you go. The world
awaits. And you might actually notice some
of it rather than being plugged into a game.
But sometimes fun is just that, fun. So
whats the harm? It certainly doesnt harm
me to see random people walking around
with their phones extended. And who am I to
judge? Distractions take all forms. The
Super Bowl, television, SimCity,
Facebook, etc. Even books. It certainly is
not new to have crazes sweep our nation or
any other nation. It might be a distraction
to life itself but sometimes real life can be
pretty scary. Take the national events of last
week or the scores of dead in France just
yesterday, for instance. Or even the presidential election that will shape the direction
of our nation for the next four years.
In response, it seems, millions of people
become enraptured by an interactive video
game. Am I against it? I dont think so, but I
wont be playing. I worry my friend might
be right.

Stocks rise for a fifth day on solid earnings

By Bernard Condon
DOW JONES INDUSTRIALS
NEW YORK Solid earnings

reports Thursday drove the stock
market to another record high.
Stocks rose from the start of
trading after JPMorgan Chase
released results that were better
than
analysts
expected.
Companies are expected to report
earnings dropped again in the
April-June period, but a few big
ones that have released numbers
so far have beaten low expectations, encouraging investors.
The gains were broad, with nine
of the 10 industry sectors of the
Standard and Poors 500 index
showing gains. Banks rose the
most, 0.9 percent.
Its really early in earnings
season, but so far so good, said
Brad Sorensen, director of the
Schwab Center for Financial
Research. He added, Optimism is
starting to creep into the market.
Investors pulled money out of
conservative assets like gold and
Treasury bonds, sending yields on
the bonds sharply higher. They
also sold stocks of utility companies, considered a haven because

The Dow Jones industrial average rose 134.29 points, or 0.7

The Dow and S&P 500 remain at
record highs, but the Nasdaq is
barely positive for the year.
The U.S. gains followed rallies
in Germany, France and Japan,
with stock indexes in each of

those countries rising more than 1
percent.
British stocks initially rose,
then gave up the gains after the
Bank of England surprised
investors by holding off on cutting interest rates despite the hit
to the British economy from last
months vote to leave the
European Union. The British

Consumer Reports: Tesla should drop Autopilot name

DETROIT Consumer Reports

said Thursday that Tesla Motors is
misleading car owners by calling
its semi-autonomous driving system Autopilot, potentially giving them too much trust in their
cars ability to drive itself.
The influential magazine said
Tesla should drop the Autopilot
name and disconnect the automat-
ic steering system until its

updated to make sure a drivers
hands stay on the wheel at all
times. The system currently
warns drivers after a few minutes
of their hands being off the
wheel.
In an email, a Tesla spokeswoman said the company has no
plans to change the name, and
that data it collects show drivers
who use Autopilot are safer than
those who dont.

With its statement, Consumer
Reports joined a debate over
autonomous driving technology
that escalated after authorities
revealed that Joshua Brown, 40,
of Canton, Ohio, died in a May
crash in Florida with the
Autopilot on in his 2015 Model
S.
The system didnt detect a tractor-trailer that had turned in front
of the car in bright sunshine, and

Brown also failed to react.
The National Highway Traffic
Safety Administration is investigating the wreck and the functioning of the Autopilot system.
After the Brown crash, critics
accused Tesla of giving drivers
access to a system that wasnt
ready, while supporters contended
the company was improving
automotive safety.
Airlines boost on-time performance from last year

U.S. airlines posted a better ontime rate for May, and complaints
dropped compared with the same
month last year.
The
Department
of
Transportation said Thursday that
83.4 percent of domestic flights

arrived on time in May, up from
80. 5 percent a year earlier
although down from April.
Hawaiian Airlines and Alaska
Airlines had the best on-time ratings, with each posting a mark of
at least 90 percent. Spirit Airlines
had the worst on-time record, followed by Virgin America both

were under 77 percent.
The government counts a flight
as late if it arrives at least 15 minutes behind schedule. The figures
cover flights on the 12 largest airlines.
Those airlines canceled 0.5 percent of their domestic flights in

May.
That was the third-lowest rate on
record and was better than the 1.1
percent cancellation rate in May
2015 and 0.9 percent in April
2016.
Brad McMillan, chief investment

officer
at
the
Commonwealth
Financial
Network, said the recent scares
may have flushed out sellers, setting up the market for even bigger
gains.
Anyone inclined to sell did so
earlier, he said, and now the market is dominated by buyers.
Still, McMillan is worried that
prices may have gotten ahead of
fundamentals.
Corporate earnings are the
biggest driver of stock prices, and
theyre looking weak overall,
notwithstanding Thursdays batch
of solid reports. Per share earnings in the S&P 500 are expected
to fall 5.5 percent from the year
earlier period, the fourth quarter in
a row of drops, according to S&P
Global Market Intelligence.
Among companies making big
moves on Thursday, Japanese
messaging app Line surged 27 percent on its first day of trading, a
gain of $8.74 to $41.58. Line has
more users than Facebook or
Twitter in Japan.
KFC owner Yum Brands climbed
$2.53, or 3 percent, to $88.27
after reporting better-than-expected profit late Wednesday.

Bel-Mateo denied title

Woodland sweeps doubleheader of championship series
By Nathan Mollat
By Greg Beacham
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
When Adam Bever pitched a no-hitter in the

winners bracket final Tuesday, the Bel-Mateo
15U Babe Ruth All-Star team was sitting pretty.
By virtue of Bevers no-no and a dozen runs
in a 12-0 win over Vallejo, Bel-Mateo
advanced to the championship round of the
Babe Ruth Nor Cal State Tournament at the
Belmont Sports Complex Thursday, where it
would have to be beaten twice to be denied its
first state crown in more than 20 years.
Bel-Mateo had been dominant in three
games, beating Novato, Woodland and Vallejo
by a combined score of 28-6. Bel-Mateo had
already beaten fellow finalist Woodland in the
second round, 11-5.
But Woodland somehow managed to hold
back its two aces because the combination of
Deaven Reynolds and Brandon Murillo who
had pitched sparingly throughout the tournament locked down Bel-Mateos potent
offense. In the first game of the possible twogame set, Reynolds pitched a complete game,
allowing just two runs on five hits in a 5-2
Woodland victory.
In the winner-take-all finale, Murillo toed
the rubber and was just as dominant. In four
innings of work, Murillo allowed two runs on
four hits as Woodland posted a 9-3 victory to
claim the Nor Cal state championship.
Bel-Mateo did not trail in the tournament
until Thursdays games. It found itself trailing 2-0 after the first five Woodland batters of
the game. Bel-Mateo starting pitcher Ben Kurr
didnt help himself by walking the first two
batters, but his usually reliable defense had a
couple hiccups behind him and it put BelMateo in the hole 2-0 right off the bat.

The Cardinal were chosen as favorites on

Royals in limbo as second half begins

By Dave Skretta
KANSAS CITY, Mo. The World Series

champion Royals are stuck in no-mans
land, close enough to contention to keep
fighting yet far enough behind the race that
going all-in at the trade deadline would be a
fools gambit.
The Royals entered the All-Star break at
45-43, seven games out of first place in the
AL Central. They are also on the outside for
the final wild-card spot, leaving general
manager Dayton Moore and manager Ned
Yost in the unenviable position of deciding
what direction they should guide the franchise.
It hasnt been early for a while, Yost
said, dismissing the overused clichi of its
still early.
But again, you have to stay focused on
today, he said. You have to forget about
yesterday. Thats the hard part about this
game. But weve been doing it for so long,
thats how we approach it.
The Royals season so far has been one of
wild mood swings, soaring through a fivegame win streak, then scuffling through
eight straight losses, only to reel off five
more wins in quick succession.
The net result is their current position,
stuck squarely between contender and pretender, unsure whether to unload players in
the jumpstart of a rebuild or acquire the few
pieces lacking from a title team.
Things were much more defined a year
ago.
Kansas City was rolling through the hot
summer months to a comfortable lead in the
division, and it was apparent by mid-July
that a postseason run was approaching.
Moore began dealing away coveted
prospects to get pitcher Johnny Cueto, second baseman Ben Zobrist and other pieces
to round out his team.
Both those guys were crucial to Kansas
City beating the New York Mets to win the
World Series.
The Royals certainly have places that
need shoring up, starting with a pitching
rotation that has already seen Chris Young
shuttled off to the bullpen. The Royals likely need at least one front-of-the-rotation
starter if they plan to contend, even though
Yost is confident there are sufficient inhouse candidates.
Injuries have also left Kansas City depleted across the lineup.
Left fielder Alex Gordon missed a big
chunk of the season with a wrist injury and
has struggled since his return. Third baseman Mike Moustakas is done for the season
with an ACL injury. Center fielder Lorenzo

Cain is also on the disabled list after straining his hamstring trying to leg out a single.
Finding someone who could play multiple
positions Zobrist, anyone? would be
ideal.
Then again, the Royals have so far cobbled together a lineup with young call-ups
such as Whit Merrifield and Brett Eibner that
has allowed them to hang around. Merrifield
was hitting over .300 for much of the season while Eibner has flashed some of the
power that Kansas City has lacked for years.
I wouldnt say theres urgency, said
Merrifield, whose fine play at second base
allowed the Royals to jettison underperforming veteran Omar Infante. Theres a lot
of baseball left. A lot of stuff can happen
between now and September and October. A
lot of games to be played, a lot of ups and
downs.
The second half begins with three games
in Detroit, then comes a crucial nine-game
homestand against the Indians, Rangers and
Angels that will ultimately decide whether
the Royals will contend in August.
If they go into another prolonged slump,
the Royals could begin to replenish their
depleted farm system especially with
pitching prospects with an eye toward
contending in a couple more years.

MLB sued for

illegal hacking
By Ronald Blum
NEW YORK The owner of a training

and sports medicine clinic sued Major
League Baseball and several of its employees Thursday, claiming they caused the companys social media accounts to be illegally
hacked during the sports Biogenesis investigation.
Neiman Nix, a 29th-round draft pick of
the Cincinnati Reds in 1998, and his DNA
Sports Performance Lab, claimed an MLB
investigator misrepresented herself as law
enforcement and MLB intimidated the companys clients and hacked accounts on
YouTube, Facebook and PayPal. The allegations are similar to those filed in a suit two
years ago that was dismissed.
Vincent White, Nixs new lawyer, said former MLB investigator Ed Dominguez is
cooperating and will testify MLB employees illegally gained access to electronic
accounts of individuals they investigated
through various exploits and phishing
schemes. We believe these tactics may have
extended to players, team staff and ownership groups.
The suit admits Nix and his company used
Bioidentical Insulin like Growth Factor
(IGF-1), which is derived from elk antlers
and is on baseballs list of banned substances.
MLB called the suit frivolous.
Mr. Whites purported source for this
lawsuit is a disgruntled former MLB
employee who was terminated for cause, it
said in a statement. Mr. White has been
threatening to file this lawsuit for months
in an attempt to coerce MLB into paying
his client. MLB considers the allegations in
this lawsuit, including the allegations relating to the hacking of DNA Sport Labs
social media accounts, to be sanctionable
under New York law.
Nix and his lab sued MLB, Major League
Baseball Properties, Major League Baseball
Enterprises, then Commissioner Bud Selig

Public service for Summitt on Tennessee campus

By Steve Megargee
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. Pat Summitts

friends, relatives, rivals, fans and former
players gathered Thursday to honor the former Tennessee womens basketball coach in
the arena where she orchestrated some of her
greatest victories.
The ceremony at Thompson-Boling Arena
is giving the public a chance to pay tribute
to Summitt, who won eight national titles
and 1,098 games in her 38-year tenure. A
private funeral already was held in
Clarksville on June 30, two days after
Summitt died at the age of 64.
I think tonights going to touch on a lot
of emotions, said Michelle BrookeMarciniak, a guard on Tennessees 1996
national championship team and a member
of the Pat Summitt Foundations advisory
board. I think its going to be sad, touching
and emotional. Its going to be happy and
truly a remembrance, a ceremony of who was
this woman (who was) such a force in everyones life.
Scheduled speakers include recently retired
quarterback Peyton Manning, Good
Morning America host Robin Roberts,
WNBA star Tamika Catchings, current
Tennessee coach Holly Warlick and former
Lady Volunteers assistant

Mickie DeMoss as well
as Summitts son, Tyler
Summitt.
The Thompson-Boling
Arena
court
on
Tennessees campus was
named The Summitt in
March 2005 during a surPat Summitt prise ceremony after a
75-54 NCAA Tournament
triumph over Purdue that gave Summitt her
880th victory, allowing her to pass Dean
Smith for the most career wins of any mens
or womens college basketball coach.
Summitt remains the Division I mens or
womens leader in that category.
Its the right place to celebrate Pat the
place (where) she gave all of us so much,
former Tennessee womens athletic director
Joan Cronan said. To me, this celebration
is really a gift to the fans from Pat. They
need an opportunity to say thank you and to
celebrate her life.
Fans withstood an afternoon downpour as
they waited to enter the arena. The distance
traveled by many of them underscored the
way Summitt built Lady Vols basketball into
a national brand.
Patti Stephen drove more than 700 miles
from Teaneck, New Jersey, to pay her final
respects. She packed a lunch in her car and

arrived on campus more than seven hours
before the start of the ceremony to make sure
she got a seat in the arena.
Ive been a Lady Vol fan for a long time,
and it felt like I just needed to be here, said
Stephen, who wore a T-shirt, hat and a set of
bracelets bearing the message We Back
Pat. It wouldnt be the same on TV. ... The
second they said the service was going to be
held, I told my boss I was taking vacation
and heading down.
Patty Ivan of Chesapeake Beach,
Maryland, drove over 500 miles to the ceremony. Ivan said shed been following
Summitt since the 1970s and called the former Lady Vols coach her role model.
Im hoping people are happy and telling
good stories about Pat and not being somber
celebrating her life, Ivan said.
Summitt took over Tennessees program
in 1974 and remained in place until stepping
down in 2012, one year after announcing
she had early-onset dementia, Alzheimers
type.
Cronan expects Thursdays ceremony to
include plenty of stories about Summitts
life on and off the court. Cronan also expected much attention to be given to the work

Report: NBA best in hiring of minorities

By Terrance Harris
ORLANDO, Fla. The NBA remains the

best among its professional sports peers
when it comes diversity hiring.
According to the report released Thursday
by the Institute for Diversity and Ethics in
Sport, the NBA received an A-plus for the
second year in a row for racial hiring and
dropped to a B in gendering hiring practices. The leagues overall grade of A was its
eighth in row as the NBA scored higher than
other professional sports league in all three
categories.
Reports are also issued on the NFL, MLB,
MLS, WNBA and college sports.
The NBA has been the leaders in pretty
much both areas since weve been doing the
report card and they are still ahead of everybody even in gender, said Richard
Lapchick, who authors the Racial and
Gender Report Card released by the Institute
for Diversity and Ethics in Sport. The NFL
had a C-plus last year and MLB had a C-plus.
MLS is the only one close with a B but they
only had 80.1 points as opposed to the 83.7

the NBA has got. College sport was the
worst of all with 78.8 points with a C-plus.
Even in maintaining the best stands, the
NBA did some dips in diversity hiring practices with the biggest coming in gender hiring. The NBA went from a B-plus grade in
gendering hiring in 2015 to a B this year
with drops coming at the team levels and
senior leadership positions. In 2015, the
NBA scored 88 points but this year only
received 83.7 points on the report card.
Women comprised 39.6 percent of all professionals in the NBA league offices in this
past season, which was slightly down from
40.9 percent in 2015. But women continued
to hold just a small percentage of team vice
president positions, comprising just 21.5
percent of the team vice president titles.
Still, there were five women who served as
team presidents/CEO during the 2015-6 season, which is the highest of any mens professional sport.
The fact there was sort of slippage with
the NBA, not only was the grade low but
there was actually a decline in the grade is
definitely an area of concern, Lapchick said

of the overall dip in gendering hiring. I
think its particularly an area concern at the
team level and senior leadership positions.
The NBA, which is the first sports league
to have two minorities as majority owners,
also had small loses in the number of head
coaches and general managers of color this
year. The number of general managers went
from six in 2014-15 to just four this past
season. The head coaching ranks were comprised of 30 percent of men of color, as
opposed to 33.3 percent at the end of the
2014-15 season.
This past season began with nine head
coaches of color but while some minority
coaches lost their jobs during the season
that number remained at nine at the end of
the season.
The NBA has gotten it for a long time,
including the general manager position,
although this year they were down at the
general manager position, Lapchick said.
They have been far and away the leader of
all of the sports in those areas.

Tributes to Summitt were evident around

In the two weeks since her death, fans have
paid tribute to the former Lady Volunteers
coach by leaving flowers, cards, basketballs
and other gifts at the foot of a bronze statue
of Summitt, which is located in across the

continued bringing flowers to that area and
taking pictures of the statue Thursday.
At one of the schools most notable campus landmarks - a rock where people often
paint various messages - Tennessee student
Payton Miller painted a picture of Summitts
face with a basketball and a Tennessee logo
serving as a backdrop.
The flowers that were used for Summitts
memorial service will be repurposed into
300 bouquets and given to Alzheimers
patients in the east Tennessee area as part of
a partnership between Random Acts of
Flowers and Alzheimers Tennessee. School
officials said Tennessee students and alumni
would assist in making those deliveries

NBA brief
Draymond Green court hearing
to be held before Olympics
EAST LANSING, Mich. A judge has
agreed to move a hearing for Golden State
Warriors star Draymond Green in his misdemeanor assault and battery case before he
leaves next month for the Olympics.
The Lansing State Journal reports
(http://on.lsj.com/29G3Iha ) that a pre-trial
conference originally set for Aug. 4 will be
held next Thursday. The former Michigan
State basketball player is accused of striking
former Spartans football player Jermaine
Edmondson in the jaw during a weekend confrontation near the East Lansing campus.
Greens attorney says it would be difficult
for his client to communicate while hes out
of the country.
Green was arrested and taken to the East
Lansing jail where he had a blood-alcohol
level of 0.10, police said. According to a
police report, Green said he was sorry and
sought to make things right.
Michigan State says Edmondson has
received his release to transfer.

Broncos now offering $70M guaranteed to Miller

By Arnie Stapleton
ENGLEWOOD, Colo. The Denver

Broncos have upped their offer to Von Miller
by offering to guarantee the Super Bowl MVP
a record $70 million of the six-year deal, a
person with knowledge of the negotiations
told The Associated Press.
The person spoke to the AP on condition of
anonymity to share candid details of the
blockbuster offer that also was reported by
ESPN and the NFL Network.
The sides have until 4 p.m. EDT Friday to
get a signed deal into NFL headquarters.
Millers agent, Joby Branion, and the
Broncos agreed to the parameters of a sixyear, $114.5 million deal last month but
Millers camp held out for more guaranteed
money.
The June offer included

$38.5 million in guarantees over the first two
years, another $1.3 million in workout bonuses,
plus the chance to earn
another $19.5 million in
guaranteed money in
2018.
General manager John
Von Miller
Elway reignited talks last
week when he offered to move up guaranteed
money in Year 3 to next March.
This week, he upped the overall guaranteed
money.
Elways offer now far surpasses the $63
million in guarantees that Philadelphias
Fletcher Cox received last month and represents the most money ever offered a non-quarterback in the NFL.
The latest proposal checks off all the boxes

for Miller the biggest overall contract for
a non-QB in league history, most guaranteed
money for an NFL defensive player and a
benchmark deal that raises the bar for the next
superstar.
Franchise players have to sign long-term
deals by 4 p.m. EDT Friday. Without a signed
contract delivered to NFL headquarters by the
deadline, they would only be allowed to play
the 2016 season for their tender,
$14,129,000 in Millers case.
Thats something Miller has insisted he
wont do. Last month, he threatened to sit out
the season absent a blockbuster deal.
The star of Super Bowl 50 skipped the
Broncos offseason program, only joining
his teammates for their White House visit and
ring ceremony. But Miller stayed in tip-top
shape, in part by participating in Dancing
With The Stars.

Miller predicted peaceful contract negotiations 12 hours after spearheading Denvers
24-10 win over Carolina in the Super Bowl
when his two sack-strips of Cam Newton led
to both of Denvers touchdowns. But things
got thorny last month. After details of
Denvers June 7 offer became public, Miller
cropped Elway from a photo on his Instagram
account and then said there was no way hed
play this season on the franchise tag.
As negotiations reignited, Millers teammates expressed confidence things would
work out.
I think it will happen because me and
Elway went down to the wire last year, said
receiver Demaryius Thomas, who signed a
$70 million deadline deal (including $43.5
million guaranteed) in 2015 with only about
30 minutes to spare.
Golovkin to fight animal when he faces Brook in London

NEW YORK Gennady GGG Golovkin

is
already
boxings
rising
star.
Welterweight champ Kell Brook hopes that
jumping two weight classes will let him
prove hes just as talented.
I want to test myself with the best fighters out there and Triple G is the best fighter
out there, Brook said. I believe I am good
enough to beat this guy.
Golovkin, a middleweight champion
whos perhaps the most feared active boxer
BEL-MATEO
Continued from page 11
Kurr deserved better. With CJ Ponce on with a
leadoff walk, he took off for second with
Reynolds at the plate. Bel-Mateo catcher Omar
Barraza had Ponce dead to rights, but the BelMateo shortstop could not hold on to the ball as
he swept a tag on Ponce.
Later, a popup was mishandled to extend the
inning and Cooper Hjerpe followed with an RBI
single to drive in the second run of the day.
Despite a shaky start, Kurr righted the ship
and kept Woodland in check the rest of the way.
Kurr worked the first six innings, allowing
three runs only one earned on just four
hits.
Bel-Mateo struggled all day with Reynolds,
as a Taylor Douglis bloop single to left was its
because of his highlight knockouts, said

Brook presents the biggest test of his
career.
Hes the best in his division, but now
Im very excited. I understand the situation, Golovkin said.
Both fighters are undefeated Golovkin
is 35-0 while Brook is 36-0. The Sept. 10
fight in Londons O2 Arena has allures for
both fighters its Brooks hometown, but
a new stage for Golovkin, a 34-year-old
from Kazakhstan who has become a draw in
the United States while fighting out of Los
Angeles.
To be a great fighter, you have to do great

things, said Brook, who described himself
as an animal who has a leap and a step to
this fight.
Brook has been hunting for a major fight
since winning the IBF title, while Golovkin
has had trouble getting any fighters to challenge him. Golovkins last fight was a second-round knockout of Dominic Wade in
April.
Lineal middleweight champion Canelo
Alvarez, titleholder Billy Joe Saunders, and
middleweight contender Chris Eubank Jr. all
chose not to go through with a fight with
Golovkin, but Brook jumped at the

opportunity when the most recent negotiations with Eubank fell through last week.
When two fighters want to fight each
other it isnt hard to make a deal,
Golovkins promoter, Tom Loeffler said.
Eddie Hearn, Brooks promoter, said the
fight is crazy but is something Brook and
his team had been waiting a really long time
to make happen.
We offered fighters, champions, socalled champions, millions of dollars to
come fight Kell Brook and all we received
really was silence and bluster, Hearn said.
only hit through the first four innings.

Not that Bel-Mateo didnt have its chances
and a rare defensive play in the third summed up
its day. With Ryan Busser and Barraza both on
via the walk, Adam Cross came to the plate. On
the first pitch from Reynolds, Cross hit a soft,
dying line drive back to Reynolds, who made a
headlong dive to make the catch.
Busser, who couldnt see the play and couldnt
tell if it was caught, was halfway to third. As
Reynolds got to his feet and turned to look at
second, he saw a pitchers dream: Busser off second and Barraza pulling into the bag. Reynolds
threw to the shortstop Ponce, who stepped on
the second to force out Busser and then tagged
Barraza for a triple play.
Despite that momentum crushing development, Bel-Mateo battled back to tie the game
in the bottom of the fifth. Kurr singled to lead
off the inning and Jarret Nelson doubled. Ryan
Huskey came through with a one-out, RBI single and Busser hit a sacrifice fly to tie the
game at 2.
But Woodland went right back out in the top
of the sixth and retook the lead on RBI double
from Adrian Retana. Woodland would add a pair
of insurance runs in the top of the seventh.
Bel-Mateo had one last good chance to
change the complexion of the game when it
loaded the bases in the bottom of the sixth with
one out, but hit into a double play to end the
threat.
Game 2 was like deja vu, as far as Bel-Mateo
was concerned. For the second game in a row,
Bel-Mateo found itself trailing immediately as
Woodlands Ponce and Reynolds both reached
base to lead off the game to spark a three-run
rally. Woodlands top two batters combined to
go 3 for 7 with four runs scored in the second
game alone.
Bel-Mateo got one of the runs back in the second against Murillo, scratching out an unearned
run. Kurr reached on an error, made it to second
on another mistake, went to third on a Huskey
single and scored on a Douglis sacrifice fly.

This time, however, there would be no slowing down Woodlands offense. It increased its
with three more runs in the third and three more
in the sixth.
Bel-Mateo scored once again in the fourth and
had a chance to get more, but came up empty.
Kurr, who was 2 for 3 with an RBI and two runs
scored in the second game, singled to lead off
the inning. He went to second on a wild pitch as
Barraza and Douglis each drew a walk to load the
bases with one out. Kurr would score on a wild
pitch, but a strikeout and a groundout ended the
inning.
Bel-Mateo cut its deficit to 6-3 with another
run in the fifth. Max Lopez walked and Tony
Rinaldi was hit by a pitch. Following a flyout
and a strikeout, Kurr came up and hit and RBI
single to center to drive in the final run of the
game and the season for Bel-Mateo.

Foreign leaders slow to commit to Rio

RIO DE JANEIRO Many top foreign

leaders have been slow to commit to attending the opening ceremony of the Rio de
Janeiro Olympics amid Brazils political turmoil and a stream of bad news engulfing
South Americas first games.
Top politicians who do show up could face
a diplomatic quandary when the games open
in three weeks.
President Dilma Rousseff has been suspended and faces an impeachment trial,
which could conclude days after the
Olympics end. She has said she hopes to
attend, meaning she would join interim president Michel Temer as the main faces of the
host nation.
If you are a top world leader, whose hand
would you shake in the middle of such uncertainty? Maristella Basso, a professor of
international law at the University of Sao
Paulo, told the Associated Press. It is a
bizarre situation. The best that foreign leaders can do is to send a letter and stay home to
It is a bizarre situation. The best that foreign leaders can do is to

send a letter and stay home to avoid any embarrassment. It wont
be a party occasion for Brazil anyway, look at the mess.
Maristella Basso, professor of international law at University of Sao Paulo
avoid any embarrassment. It wont be a party

occasion for Brazil anyway, look at the
mess.
An early prediction that 100 heads of state
or government could be on hand at the Aug.
5 ceremony has not been repeated for weeks.
The Brazilian foreign ministry declined to
offer numbers, and said a list would be published just the before the games open.
Organizing committee spokesman Mario
Andrada said he did not know how many leaders would attend.
The Brazilian news website UOL puts the
number at 45 and lists United Nations
Secretary-General Ban-ki Moon as a confirmed guest.
France is an exception. Frances embassy
in Brasilia told AP that President Francois
Hollande will attend the opening ceremony.

Paris is a candidate to host the 2024 games.
Italys embassy also confirmed that Prime
Minister Matteo Renzi would attend. Rome
is another 2024 candidate.
The United States embassy did not say if
President Barack Obama would attend.
Brazilian media has reported that Secretary
of State John Kerry is the American official
most likely to be at Maracana Stadium. First
Lady Michelle Obama represented the U.S. at
Londons opening ceremony in 2012.
China, one of Brazils main trade partners,
did not reply to APs request for information.
Brazilian media say China will send Vice
Premier Liu Yandong, who is in charge of
education and sports. She ranks far below
President Xi Jinping and Premier Li Keqiang.
Beijing is host to the 2022 Winter

Olympics.
Even Argentina, Brazils main partner in
the region, has yet to confirm the presence
of President Mauricio Macri, although its
embassy in Brasilia says he is expected to
come.
Japan has also not confirmed its delegation. However, Japan would seem likely to
send a top-ranking representative with
Tokyo the next host of the Summer Games.
Britain, which held the last Summer
Olympics, has just changed its prime minister and its representative is in doubt.
Russia is another question mark. Many
Russian athletes have been caught up in a
giant doping scandal. A report due on
Monday may confirm allegations of statebacked doping by Russia. Already, the
Russian track and field team has been banned
from the games, pending an appeal.
Even many left-leaning Latin American
governments that supported Brazil as South
Americas first Olympic host have yet to
confirm.

motorbike carrying a TV camera, and Froome, who was
right behind his former teammate, also hit the pavement in
the final kilometer on the wind-shortened climb up legendary Mont Ventoux.
The crowd was just all on the road, and a motorbike
stopped right in front of us and we had nowhere to go,
Porte said. The next minute, I went straight over the top of
the motorbike. It was just a mess.
Last week, Froome punched the face of a spectator who
got too close to the race.
I agree that you come to the race, you have a good time,
but you dont need to be running beside the riders, you dont

The wind prevented organizers from erecting the usual
barriers at the end of most stages, Tour director Christian
Prudhomme explained.
We took an exceptional decision because of this exceptional situation, an incident that might have never happened before in 100 years, Prudhomme said. There will be

able to provide him with a suitable substitute.
All of Froomes main rivals crossed ahead of him, and
Froome shook his head in disbelief when he finally reached
the finish.
Its really unfortunate what happened in the last couple
of kilometers, Froome said, but ultimately common sense
has prevailed and the commissaires have come to the right
decision, so I would like to thank them for that.
As Froome ran through the crowds, he attempted to communicate with his team via radio but the crowds prevented
the Team Sky car from reaching him.
It was a nightmare, Sky sports director Nicolas Portal
said. It took up to two minutes for him to get a spare bike
but the pedals did not suit him. ... I cant understand how so
many people were allowed there. It was mayhem.
Before the crash, Froome dropped most of his rivals apart

The race jury eventually decided to give Froome and Porte
the same stage time as Mollema.
Still, Froome was booed and whistled at when he put the
yellow jersey back on during the podium ceremony.
Froome, who is seeking his third Tour title in four years,
increased his overall lead to 47 seconds ahead of fellow

Two-time runner-up Nairo Quintana was third, 54 seconds

Phil Mickelson watches his putt on No. 18 lip out for a

first-round 63 falling inches short of setting a new record
of lowest round in a major.
OPEN
played ... and yet I want to shed a tear right now, Mickelson
said. That putt on 18 was an opportunity to do something historical. I knew it, and with a foot to go I thought I had done it. I
saw that ball rolling right in the center. I went to go get it. I had
that surge of adrenaline that I had just shot 62, and then I had the
heartbreak that I didnt.
No tears were necessary at Royal Troon, not after a round of
63 that was brilliant even by Leftys standards, and certainly
not after building a three-shot lead over Patrick Reed and Martin
Kaymer on an ideal day by the Irish Sea.
Mickelson seized the moment with a birdie on the par-5 16th
from a bunker short of the green, and a 4-iron to 15 feet for
birdie on the par-3 17th to reach 8-under par. He knew no one
had ever shot 62 in a major. He also knew he most likely would
never get a chance like this.
That would have been really something special, he said.
So to have that putt lip out, thats going to sting for a while.
Even with such a close call, Mickelson is in good company.
Nicklaus missed a putt just inside 3 feet for a 62 in the 1980
U.S. Open at Baltusrol. Greg Norman had to only two-putt from
30 feet for a 62 at Turnberry in the 1986 British Open and took
three putts. Tiger Woods watched his 15-foot putt for 62 spin
270 degrees around the cup in the 2007 PGA Championship at
Southern Hills. Nick Prices birdie putt for a 62 in the 1986
Masters dipped in and out of the cup.
Asked why there had never been a 62 in the major, Mickelson
pointed to his putt.
Theres a curse, he said. Because that ball should have been
in.
It wasnt for a lack of effort. He went with a 6-iron to play a
baby cut back toward the hole, and it worked out perfectly. He
brought in his caddie and told him that I need your best read.
Ernie Els did his part, putting out of turn to turn the stage over
to Mickelson.
The pace was perfect. The putt looked perfect until it wasnt. By a fraction.
I saw that ball going in and I just had a good, clear vision of
what was going to happen, he said. What I didnt see was what
happened.
Of the seven previous players to open with a 63 in a major,
only Nicklaus at the 1980 U.S. Open and Raymond Floyd at the
1982 PGA Championship went on to win.

Dale Earnhardt Jr. scratched

with concussion symptoms
LOUDON,
N. H.
Dale
Earnhardt Jr. has dropped out of
the Sprint Cup race Sunday at New
Hampshire Motor Speedway
because of symptoms of a concussion.
Earnhardt was evaluated in
Charlotte, North Carolina, this
week and doctors did not clear him
to race. Hendrick Motorsports said
Thursday it had no timetable for
his return.
Alex Bowman will drive in his
place.
NASCARs most popular driver,
Earnhardt was involved in a 22-car
wreck in Daytona this month and
also wrecked last month at
Michigan International Speedway.
He says he was feeling fine last
week and thought the problem was
allergies. When that didnt help,
he met with a neurologist.
Earlier this year, Earnhardt
pledged his brain to researchers
looking into the connection
between concussions and traumatic brain injuries.
Im looking forward to treat-

the suit on the defendants and
failed to show up for scheduled
case management conferences.
Thornton wrote this courts
patience is at an end and then
added, referring to the time it took
for the case: TWO HUNDRED
SIXTY ONE (261) to perfect service in this case. At no times has a
summons in this case ever been
issued. He also said the plaintiffs
and their lawyers failed to show up
ment with the goal of getting back

in the race car when the doctors
say Im ready, Earnhardt said.
Earnhardt Jr. at least twice in his
career hid concussion symptoms
to avoid being removed from his
car. In 2012, he sought medical
attention several days after a crash
at Talladega because of symptoms
he knew were concussion-related.
During that examination, it was
determined hed suffered two concussions in six weeks and was
sidelined for two weeks of healing.
NASCAR required the next year
for drivers to submit a baseline
neurocognitive assessment. When
a driver in NASCAR cant return
his damaged car to the garage, a
trip to the care center is required,
and under a new three-step
process, if a driver shows any indication of a head injury they go
immediately to a hospital.
Concussed drivers must be cleared
by a neurologist or neurosurgeon
before they can get back in a race
car.
The 41-year-old Earnhardt is
winless this season and 13th in
the points standings. Because he

will not start every race, Earnhardt
will need a waiver from NASCAR
to compete in the Chase for the
Sprint Cup championship, if hes
meets other eligibility requirements.
Hendrick Motorsports will provide an update next week on
Earnhardts status for the July 24
race at Indianapolis Motor
Speedway.
Im proud of Dale for standing
up, team owner Rick Hendrick
said. The number-one priority is
his health, so were going to give
him all the time he needs. We completely support the decision by
the doctors and will be ready to go
win races when hes 100 percent.
In the meantime, we have full confidence in Greg (Ives) and the
team, and we know theyll do a
great job.
The 23-year-old Bowman has
not raced in the Cup series this
season and had no top-10 finishes
in 71 starts over the 2014-2015
seasons. He drives part-time in the
second-tier Xfinity Series for
Earnhardts JR Motorsports team.
for scheduled case management

conferences.
At that time the case wasnt
ripe, White said. Frankly, the
cooperation of the investigators
we have today makes or breaks
this matter.
The new suit, filed in U. S.
District Court in Manhattan,
claims tortious interference under
Florida and New York law and lists
MLB, Selig, new commissioner
Rob Manfred and Santana as defendants along with MLB vice president of information security Neil
Boland.
Mullin and Hannah were termi-
nated by MLB two years ago.

White did not identify others in
addition to Dominguez who were
cooperating.
Mr. Dominguez is the most outspoken but we expect other investigators, based on our communications with them, to also be testifying, he said.
White also represents former
Mets closer Jenrry Mejia, who was
banned for life in February following his third positive drug test.
The Biogenesis investigation
led to the suspensions of more
than a dozen players, including
Yankees star Alex Rodriguez.

Militant with U.S. bounty walks free in Pakistan

By Kathy Gannon
LAHORE, Pakistan The United

States has put a $10 million bounty on
his head, labeling him a terrorist. He is
one of the most wanted men in India.
Yet, Hafiz Saeed walks free in his home
country of Pakistan, denouncing
Washington and New Delhi in public
speeches.
Now the man identified by the U.S. as
a founding member of the Lashkar-eTaiba militant group is weighing in on
the flare-up of violence in Kashmir, the
mountainous region divided between
Pakistani and Indian control, where
dozens have died in clashes with protesters after Indian security forces killed
a top rebel leader.
In an interview with the Associated
Press, Saeed accused the U.S. of giving
India a free hand to crush the anti-India
protests in its Himalayan territory,
warning that will only lead to an escalation of violence.
America is supporting this oppression by India by saying it is an internal
matter, the 66year-old Saeed said

in the interview,
which took place
Wednesday at his
two-story
home
behind a steel barrier separating it from
the narrow streets of
Hafiz Saeed the eastern city of
Lahore.
This has given India encouragement, and because of this, the killings
and violence will continue, he said.
Washington has said it will not intervene. But U.S. State Department
spokeswoman Elizabeth Trudeau,
speaking to reporters Thursday, disagreed with the suggestion by Saeed
and others that the U.S. is aloof and
therefore partly responsible for the
crackdown. She said the U.S. has had
discussions with both India and
Pakistan about the violence in
Kashmir.
We are very concerned about the
deaths of the protesters, Trudeau said.
Thats of grave concern to us. We con-
tinue to be in touch with the government of India. Weve been in discussions with the government of Pakistan
as well.
Saeed said he will lead nationwide
demonstrations in Pakistan to force its
government to sever ties with the U.S.
if it cannot convince Washington to
intervene in the decades-old Kashmir
dispute. The two countries, which also
possess nuclear weapons, have fought
three wars, two of them over Kashmir.
Militants demand that Kashmir be
united either under Pakistani rule or as
an independent country. At least 31
people have been killed in Kashmir in
street protests after Indian troops last
week killed Burhan Wani, a charismatic
Kashmiri insurgent.
India declared the death of the 22year-old Wani to be a major victory
over the insurgency. But his killing has
galvanized young Indian Kashmiris to
stage daily protests. It has also sparked
massive demonstrations in Pakistan
and forced Pakistans government and
military to make daily statements in
support of demonstrating Kashmiris.

A tourist looks at Papyrus of King Khufu at the opening

exhibition of The Papyri of Khufu from Wadi al-Jarf.
Egypt unveils oldest papyrus,

details on pyramid-builders
By Ahmed Hatem
CAIRO The Egyptian Museum in Cairo on Thursday

began putting on display the countrys oldest papyruses,
which date back 4,500 years, detailing the daily life of the
pyramid-builders.
The items are from the 4th Dynasty of King Khufu, also
known as Cheops, for whom the Great Pyramid of Giza was
built as a tomb.
Egypts Antiquities Minister Khaled el-Anany told
reporters as the exhibition was unveiled that the papyruses
were discovered in 2013 by an Egyptian-French mission
inside caves in the port of Wadi el-Jarf. The ancient port is
located 119 kilometers (74 miles) from the city of Suez.
El-Anany said, the items display are the oldest papyruses in Egypt. Museum chief Tarek Tawfiq said the papyruses
depict the daily routine of the workers, who also transferred
building material from the Red Sea port to Giza.
On display are a total of six out of the 30 discovered
papyruses, according to Hussein Abdel-Bassir, another
ministry official. These show the administrative power
and the central nature of the state at the time of Khufu, he
said.
One of the papyruses belonged to a senior employee
named Marr who played a role in the building of the pyramid
and it covered a period of three months of his job, providing information about his duties including transporting
rocks through the River Nile and its canals, Abdel-Bassir
said.

trolls were decidedly the least of anyones
worries.
As producer Ivan Reitman puts it: The
movie is the only answer to the question, Is
the movie good, or not?
In the long and twisty development
process, the big question internally was never
about gender. It was about whether to reboot
or pass the torch.
Reitman, who directed the original
Ghostbusters, had been working on a third
film, a pure sequel to Ghostbusters II, which
would have focused on the now-grown son of
Bill Murray and Sigourney Weavers characters. The film was greenlit and a script was in
the works which, by the way, featured a
mixed gender cast but it wasnt going all
that smoothly.
Murray wasnt enthusiastic about a sequel in
general and demanded that his character be
killed off after five minutes. And then Harold
Ramis, the beloved co-star and co-writer of

the films secret weapon.
His Ghostbusters makes some winks to
the uproar that preceded his gender-swapping
film, but it mostly steers straight ahead, too
busy being funny to worry much about
misogynist detractors. It does, however, pay
a lot too much attention to placating
Ghostbusters fans with the familiar showdowns and iconography of the original two
films.
I was proudly raised on Bill Murray comedies, but the preciousness many have over a
Ghostbusters remake is nevertheless mystifying. This isnt Stripes were talking

the original, got very sick with vasculitis and

died in February 2014 at the age of 69.
It just broke all of our hearts, Reitman
said. There was no way to do that movie without him and with a reluctant Bill. I decided I
would give up the directing and negotiated a
deal to make it possible for the studio to continue this thing that we started.
Shortly after, Bridesmaids director Paul
Feig entered the picture, through then-Sony
Pictures chief Amy Pascal, with interest from
comedy superstars Melissa McCarthy and
Kristen Wiig. Feig brought on Katie Dippold,
who wrote The Heat, to co-write the screenplay, and they were off holding on for dear
life amid the turmoil caused by the breach of
Sonys computer system.
Feig added up-and-coming Saturday Night
Live cast members Leslie Jones and Kate
McKinnon to round out the four Ghostbusters.
When Paul told me the four people who
were on it, I was like, Oh hes going for a
beast fest. All of us are comedic beasts, said
Jones, whose worries about how the four personalities would mesh in an ensemble were
quickly assuaged.
Feig prides himself on his ability to assemble great comedic energies, and Reitman was
on board too, deciding to give Feig space to

make the film he wanted.
I knew very early that we were in very good
shape when I saw the four of them together,
said Reitman. Theres this remarkable instep quality that really good improvisers can
do with each other. You believe the truth of
them having been together forever, even if
they havent.
Reitman had a simple rule: he didnt want
this film to be an insult to the first, a spoof,
send up, or silly version.
And its not. The story is its own creation
about the formation of the Ghostbusters, set
in the present day where the 1984
Ghostbusters dont exist and only a few eccentric scientists believe in the paranormal.
For Wiig, it was an easy yes. She took
comfort in knowing that they also had the
support and participation of the original cast,
including Murray, Dan Aykroyd (also a producer), Ernie Hudson and Sigourney Weaver.
It really felt like we were being blessed in
such a way that we were all part of this thing
together. Its kind of what the spirit of the
movie is, Wiig said.
Ramis also gets a little tribute, which eagleeyed viewers will surely spot. His family vis-
ited the set that day, which Wiig said was an

emotional day, and his son, Daniel Ramis, has
a bit role too at a heavy metal show.
But beyond the cameos, rock star cast and
bona fides of the creative team,
Ghostbusters has been overshadowed by a
passionate group of naysayers critical of
the cast, the trailer, women, and deeply defensive of their childhood favorite.
Heres the problem with the internet: Its
that small, small minority who scream the
loudest and the media covers them, but its not
reflective of the vast, vast majority of people, Feig said.
The cast has a similarly removed and
bemused view of the hate.
You just cant give that much credence to
somebody whos like Im predicting the
future about this thing thats not been made,
McCarthy said.
Plus, the finished film gets a few digs in.
I think aint no bitches gonna hunt no
ghosts that was definitely a little bit of
volleying it back, Wiig said of a line in the
film where the women read an internet comment about their ghost hunting business. But
we tried not to think too much about that
stuff.
and Costello Meet Frankenstein was

good, all right, but it wasnt some sanctified
ground never to be trod on again. It already
spawned a mediocre sequel, after all.
Here, the iconic ambulance has been traded
for a borrowed hearse and cameos from original stars (excepting Harold Ramis, who died
in 2014) have been awkwardly forced in. The
team, once assembled, is astonished at the
sky-high rent required for the originals firehouse and instead relocates to a Chinatown
office above a takeout joint. (The films New
York overall is refreshingly authentic.)
After an early ghost sighting (featuring an
excellent Zach Woods) and the familiar
synths of Ray Parker Jr.s theme, screenwriters Feig and Katie Dippold bring the foursome together.
Wiig is a physics professor trying to make
tenure at Columbia but shes disgraced by her
latent belief in the paranormal. Her old
friend, Abby (McCarthy, reliably solid if
somewhat restrained), has stayed on the case,
though, with her eccentric gizmo-making

sidekick, Jillian (McKinnon). The bug-eyed,
fizzy-haired McKinnon is like a blow torch
of steampunk fire to the movie.
Jones, who plays a subway worker, might
have been expected to be the broadest performer of the bunch, given the knockout
punch of her SNL appearances, but her
character is impressively grounded. Shes the
best of the quartet, though Feig doesnt give
her enough to do later in the film.
Murray, Ramis, et al excelled at finding
laughs when nothing was happening, without seeming to be trying at all. Feigs film
never has that anything-can-happen feeling,
and it suffers for it. I wish he had let his talented cast truly loose.
Big-budget special effects are the enemy of
comedy: they suck the air out. In a sense, this
Ghostbusters, which swells to a bloated
CGI finale in Times Square, has overpowered
one Hollywood specter sexism only to
be stifled by another: the all-powerful force
of franchise-making.
Still, the freewheeling and funny solidarity
of the four leads win out in the end, even if
Feig shows more timidity than he did in
Bridesmaids, The Heat or Spy. Chris
Hemsworth, playing a ditzy secretary, is one
of the most clever stereotype reversals: Hes
the office eye candy.
It feels a little like this Ghostbusters was
a cultural test that we (not the movie) have
already failed. Feigs film may be a feminist
milestone: a big ol popcorn movie taken
over by women (something that should have
happened long ago and engendered far less
vitriol). But its also simply a breezy good
time, one that just happens to culminate with
four very funny ladies shooting a monster in
the balls.

action and some crude humor. Running

FASHION IN FLIGHT: A HISTORY

OF AIRLINE UNIFORM DESIGN, AT
THE SAN FRANCISCO AIRPORT
MUSEUM. The airline uniform occupies a
unique place in the history of womens wear.
For more than 85 years, the airlines passenger-service and safety professionals variably called stewardess, hostess and flight
attendant have been dressed in outfits
designed to signify a distinct role in the
workplace, project the identity of their
employer, and reflect prevailing fashions of
the times. These often conflicting demands
of singularity, diversity and conformity
have created a distinct garment type, one
that has penetrated deeply into the social
conscience of popular culture while providing fashion designers with remarkable challenges and creative opportunities.
Fashion In Flight: A History of Airline
Uniform Design, an exhibit at the
International Terminal of San Francisco
Airport, presents 70 female airline uniform
ensembles and additional accessories that
date from 1930 to the present. It traces the
development of uniform design from the
anonymous, in-house origins of the pre-war
and utility era, through the period of engagement with renowned couturiers and fashion
houses that produced extraordinary collections for airline clientele during the 1950s,
60s and 70s, to todays select designers
who are keeping airlines at fashions forefront. The styles and trends include nurseinspired attire, periods of military influence
and austerity, the influences of Paris, New
York and Hollywood in the era of cosmopolitan glamour and the jet-set chic of the space
age. The later pluralism of casual elegance
with the self-expression of mix-and-match,
power-dressing and retro looks of traditionalism during the nostalgia movement are
also explored. The exhibition concludes with
contemporary styles of today.
Over 30 designers and fashion houses are
represented in the exhibition. These include
Adolfo, Cristbal Balenciaga, Pierre
Balmain, Bill Blass, Marc Bohan, Pierre
Cardin, Oleg Cassini, Andr Courrges,
Christian Dior, Halston, Edith Head, Stan
Herman, Macario Jimnez, Christian
Lacroix, Papou Lahoud, Ralph Lauren, Don
Loper, Jean Louis, Hanae Mori, Jean Patou,
Emilio Pucci, Ben Reig, Yves Saint Laurent,
Angelo Tarlazzi, William Travilla and
Vivienne Westwood. Uniforms in the exhibition were selected from the permanent collection of the San Francisco Airport Museum or
were made available by lenders including
Aeromxico, Air France, American Airlines
C.R. Smith Museum, Delta Flight Museum,
Flight Path Learning Center & Museum,
LAX, Frontiers of Flight Museum, Love

Consider rotisserie chicken a culinary blank slate

By J.M. Hirsch
Once again, the rotisserie chicken

rescues the weeknight cook.
And Im fairly confident Ive never
actually eaten a rotisserie chicken as
one would a traditional roasted chicken
as in, slabs or chunks of meat
hacked from the bird.
FETTUCCINI WITH PARMESAN,

CHICKEN AND ASPARAGUS
Start to finish: 25 minutes
Servings: 4
1 pound asparagus, trimmed, cut into
1-inch pieces
12-ounce package fresh fettuccini
3 cups shredded cooked chicken
1/2 cup chicken broth
Pinch red pepper flakes
1 cup grated Parmesan
2 tablespoons butter, cut into small
pieces
Salt and ground black pepper, to
taste
Bring a large saucepan of salted
water to a boil. Add the asparagus and
blanch for 2 minutes, or until bright
green and just barely tender. Use a slotted spoon and remove to a plate.
Return the water to a boil.
Add the pasta to the water and cook
according to package directions. Drain
and set aside.
Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan
over medium-low, combine the cooked
chicken, broth and red pepper flakes.
Heat until warmed through.
In a large bowl, combine the asparagus, pasta and chicken with broth. Add
the butter and Parmesan, then toss well
until melted and creamy. Season with
salt and pepper.

HOUSING
the Bayfront, and innovative spaces to
work and live on portions of Rollins
Road.
He indicated he felt the initiative was
overdue, as both areas are ripe for
investment.
Its almost as if these areas have
been poisoned, whether through policy or economics, he said. So much of
that area seems to have potential.
Terrones, who works as an architect
in Burlingame, said he has heard from
associates a desire to develop portions
of the Bayfront but existing policy
restrictions have diverted their interest.
Commission Chair Will Loftis said
he too favored reinvigorating and
injecting vibrancy into the community, and suggested the proposed land use
could serve as a means of accomplishing such objectives.
These are significant opportunities, Loftis said.
In a proposal drafted after receiving
feedback from the community, as well
as an advisory committee, housing
has been proposed south of the
Broadway interchange, east of
Highway 101 and near the border of
San Mateo.
North of the potential residential
development could be an area preserved for parks and recreation space
just south of the highway interchange,
and north along the water to Millbrae
could be shared between commercial
buildings as well as mixed-use devel-

ratic equations or cite the elements on
the periodic table. They cant tell you
who Harvey Milk was or the significance of the Stonewall Riots, Chiu
said.
The changes satisfy legislation
passed five years ago that added LGBT
Americans and people with disabilities
to the list of social and ethnic groups
whose contributions schools are supposed to teach and must appear in K-8
textbooks.
The law also prohibited classroom
materials that reflect adversely on gays
or particular religions. Conservative
opponents argued that it should be up
to parents to decide how and at what age
to broach sexual orientation with their
children and made two unsuccessful
efforts to repeal the law.
The approved framework weaves references to gay Americans and events
throughout the history and social sci-
23
opments allowing for shared living

and work space.
Proposed policy changes allowing
joint living and work space could also
be implemented on Rollins Road,
while leaving adequate space to not
infringe on the successful industrial
businesses occupying portions of the
area.
Building housing in areas not
designed to accommodate such development could present a unique set of
issues though, as was recognized by
officials, residents and consultants
hired by the city to oversee the general plan update.
Should the city move ahead with
building more homes, specifically on
the Bayfront where there is substantial
room to grow, Michael Barber, former
member of the Burlingame Elementary
School District Board of Trustees, suggested an influx of new residents and
families could lead to school overcrowding.
If this was built out, you would have
to find some place to build another
school, he said. Our schools are at
maximum capacity.
School district officials last week
authorized floating a bond measure to
voters in the fall election which will
pay toward construction of new classrooms to house the rise in new students
who have enrolled in recent years.
Barber, a legislative aide to county
Supervisor Dave Pine, added sea level
rise should also be considered when
discussing development near the
Bayfront.
Adding to concerns regarding existing infrastructure, Commissioner
Richard Sargent recognized much of
the Bayfront is isolated, specifically
the southern portion, and said building

new homes in the area could create difficulty in connecting to the rest of the
city.
If we put a lot of residents over
there, it will be completely out of character for the rest of our community, he
said.
No decision was made at the meeting, and the issue will be further considered before being brought for discussion before the City Council in
September. The general plan update is
expected to take a couple years to complete.
For Rollins Road, the commission
supported building new homes along
the northern stretch, due in part to the
areas proximity to the Millbrae Bay
Area Rapid Transit station.
Commissioners also expressed
interest in making California Drive a
more dynamic section of the city,
specifically in the middle of the
stretch connecting Burlingame Avenue
to Broadway.
Attractive amenities exist on the
bookends of the street near the intersection with the shopping districts,
said Commissioner Michael Gaul, but
he would like to see more commercial
investment along the entirety of the
street to engage residents.
Allowing housing on second floors
on California Drive has also been suggested as an opportunity to revitalize
the area.
Ultimately, as the variety of initiatives are being discussed, officials felt
the opportunity to build more homes
and commercial spaces is worth greater
examination.
We need it to be studied further,
said Terrones.
ence curriculum, starting in secondgrade through discussions about

diverse families and again in fourthgrade with lessons on Californias
place in the gay rights movement.
The guidelines also touch on the topics in fifth and eighth-grade looking
at gender roles in the 18th and 19th
centuries and examples of individuals
who flouted them and throughout
high school.
A capstone of sorts would come in
U.S. government courses, where seniors would learn about the 2015
Supreme Court ruling that legalized
same-sex marriage nationwide and
recent court cases involving bathroom
access for transgender students.
Californias law took effect in
January 2012, but its implementation
was slowed by attempts to overturn it,
competing educational priorities and
budget cuts that stalled work on drafting recommendations for the school
board and textbook purchases.
Opponents remain concerned that
the guidelines de-emphasize important
historical figures and events to make
room for LGBT icons of lesser or dis-
puted note, said Pacific Justice Institute

senior staff attorney Matthew
McReynolds, whose Sacramento legal
defense organization was involved in
the repeal efforts.
Certainly some families will be
concerned about their second-graders
learning about two-mom families, but I
think parents would be much more
alarmed if they knew that LGBT
History Month, in the last few years,
has promoted the notion that America
the Beautiful is a source of lesbian
pride, McReynolds said.
Katharine Lee Bates, a Wellesley
College professor who wrote the song
in 1893, lived with a fellow faculty
member at the womens school for a
quarter-century, and contemporary
scholars speculate that the relationship was romantic. Supporters say the
changes recognize that LGBT history
is part of American history.
You cannot understand where we are
now collectively as Americans without
understanding something of the LGBT
past, said Don Romesburg, chairman
of womens studies at Sonoma State
University.

have grade separations, Underwood said.
The gate downtimes, obviously thats
going to affect traffic and anything we can
do to get this done in advance of highspeed rail is beneficial.
The entire collaborative project in many
ways can be viewed as a model for how communities must be proactive and willing
to contribute financially if they want
their own grade separations to come to
fruition. San Mateos improvements are
jointly funded by the city, county and state
although the last portion has yet to be
awarded from voter-approved high-speed
rail bonds.
One of the things that high-speed rail
has said, even at public meetings, is
theyre kind of using the San Mateo 25th
Avenue grade separation as kind of their
poster child, or role model, on how grade
separations should be funded. Obviously
they have limited funding too, even if billions of dollars seems like a lot, it goes
fast, Underwood said. When you can
bring local money in to play, its going to
be beneficial.
The city is expected to contribute $12
million, $74 million will come from the
countys Measure A transportation tax, the
California Public Utilities Commission is
expected to offer $10 million and about
$84 million in voter-approved high-speed
rail bonds is needed to fund construction.
High-speed rail hasnt fully tapped in to
the $10 billion in voter-approved
Proposition 1A bonds and has yet to secure
the estimated $64 billion itll cost to create
FRANCE
that he saw a truck drive into the crowd.
There was carnage on the road, he said.
Bodies everywhere. He said the driver
emerged with a gun and started shooting.
Frances Interior Minister Bernard
Cazeneuve said 80 people were killed,
including children, and 18 were in critical
condition, and the Paris prosecutors office
announced an investigation for murder,
attempted murder in an organized group
linked to a terrorist enterprise.
We are in a war with terrorists who want
to strike us at any price and in a very violent
way, Cazeneuve said.
The ranking politician of the AlpesMaritime department that includes Nice said
the truck plowed into the crowd over a dis-

A rendering of the proposed grade separation at 25th Avenue in San Mateo.

the states first bullet train.
But electrification and San Mateos grade
separations are proceeding as the agencies
hope high-speed rails support will arrive
soon.
The High-Speed Rail Authority has earmarked funds for San Mateos project in its
business plan and the city is working on a
formal funding agreement to assure the
money is accessible ideally in time for
construction to start next year, Underwood
said.
The new crossings will offer critical
access as the massive transit-oriented Bay
Meadows redevelopment welcomes thousands of new residents and employees to
the completely transformed site of the former horse race track.
This stretch of tracks could also serve as
a critical component of the future Caltrain
and high-speed rail blended system, as the

area is considered a possible locale for
passing tracks extra tracks where the
proposed bullet train could potentially pass
the regional commuter line that will make
more frequent stops. Having the area
already grade separated will provide both
operational benefits to the rail agencies
and to the general community traversing
across the tracks, said Liria Larano, deputy
chief of Caltrain Modernization and Capital
programs.
Its important that we work together so
that we address the needs of all the stakeholders. [Caltrain] is a stakeholder, highspeed rail is a stakeholder, the city is a
stakeholder and riders are stakeholders,
Larano said. So when we do a design, we
account for everyones needs if were able.
Raising the tracks up to 20 feet in some
tance of 1.2 miles. Many of those on the

ground were in shorts and other summer
clothing.
Eric Ciotti said on BFM TV that police
killed the driver apparently after an
exchange of gunfire.
The president of the Provence Alpes Ctte
dAzur regional council, which includes
Nice, said the truck was loaded with arms and
grenades. Christian Estrosi told BFM TV
that the driver fired on the crowd, according
to the police who killed him.
Images being broadcast across French
media showed revelers running for their
lives down Nices palm tree-lined
Promenade des Anglais, the famous seaside
boulevard named for the English aristocrats
who proposed its construction in the 19th
century.
Video footage showed men and women
one or two pushing strollers racing to get
away from the scenes. And, in what appeared
to be evidence of a gun battle, photos
showed a truck with at least half a dozen bullet holes punched through its windshield.
It was not immediately clear who would
have been behind an attack, but France has
recently seen a spate of dramatic assaults by
jihadist groups, including the Islamic State
group which straddles Iraq and Syria.
President Francois Hollande said in a televised statement that all of France was under
an Islamist terrorist threat and extended by
three months a state of emergency that has
been in place since the November attacks
that killed 130 in Paris was to end July 26.
The decision needs parliamentary approval.
The terrorist character (of the attack) cannot be denied, he said.
Hollande said he was calling a defense
council meeting Friday that brings together
defense, interior and other key ministers,
then heading to Nice. He listed several measures to bolster security in France after two
waves of attacks last year that killed 147
people. Besides continuation of the state of
places, while also lowering some portions

of the street, will have safety benefits as
vehicles will not intersect with the railroad
and sidewalks running through the underpass will provide pedestrian routes, Larano
said.
Some right-of-way acquisition will be
required, with about $4 million set aside as
part of the project costs. No residential
properties will be affected, although some
commercially-used surface parking lots
may be needed to create crossings at 28th
and 31st avenues, as well as for the new station, Larano said.
The project necessitates the Hillsdale
Caltrain Station be raised and relocated further north toward 28th Avenue. The proposed new station will be centered between
the two tracks and provide similar amenities as the existing station such as benches, shelters and ticket machines, Larano
said.
With the final design wrapping up this
fall and plans for the project to go to bid
soon after, Caltrain and the city hope to
start construction in 2017 with it wrapping
up in 2020.
The plan is to coordinate the grade separation project alongside electrification
which involves installing an overhead contact system beginning in 2017. But keeping the project on track means support
from the states high-speed rail must arrive
in time to hire contractors next year, said
Underwood and Larano.
The City Council will receiv e an update
on the project and prov ide direction to staff
about feasible funding sources at its
Monday, July 18, meeting. The meeting is
7 p.m. at City Hall, 330 W. 20th Av e. Visit

emergency and the Sentinel operation with
10,000 soldiers on patrol, he said he was
calling up operational reserves, those
who have served in the past and will be
brought in to help police, particularly at
French borders.
President Barack Obama condemned what
he said appears to be a horrific terrorist
attack.
European Council president Donald Tusk
said it was a tragic paradox that the victims of the attack in Nice were celebrating
liberty, equality and fraternity Frances
motto on the countrys national day.
Writing online, Nice Matin journalist
Damien Allemand who was at the waterside
said the fireworks display had finished and
the crowd had got up to leave when they
heard a noise and cries.
A fraction of a second later, an enormous
white truck came along at a crazy speed,
turning the wheel to mow down the maximum number of people, he said.
