By Mary Clare Jalonick
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — House Democrats pressed the Justice
Department Monday to provide the full report from special
counsel Robert Mueller even as Republicans gleefully
called for them to “move on” from the Russia investigation.
President Donald Trump accused those responsible for
launching Mueller’s probe of “treasonous things against
our country” and said they “certainly will be looked into.”
Trump said the release of Mueller’s full report “wouldn’t
bother me at all,” and Democrats quickly put that statement
to the test, demanding that his administration hand over the
entire document and not just Sunday’s four-page summary
from Attorney General William Barr.

that his summary is “not sufficient” and asked to be given
Beach restored
By Zachary Clark
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
The Marine Science Institute, an educational nonprofit in
Redwood City, has restored a beach used for children’s pro-
grams and water sports after finally securing the required
permit from a regional Bay development oversight
agency— a process many have described as unnecessarily
complicated and time-consuming.
“I think [the Bay Conservation and Development
Commission] started feeling the heat and the pressure from
everyone asking about it — we had people from [U.S. Rep.]
Jackie Speier’s office and other political people plus the
media saying this is a little tiny project, what is the
holdup?” said Marilou Seiff, MSI’s executive director. 
Self said it took six years to secure all of the necessary
permits to restore the beach, a relatively simple project that

Impact of poultry disease spreads
Wildlife hospital not taking turkeys due to viral infection
STAFF AND WIRE REPORT
The Lindsay Wildlife Rehabilitation
Hospital in Walnut Creek is no longer
accepting turkeys after the discovery in San
Mateo County of a contagious respiratory
infection that is nearly always fatal to
birds.
Virulent Newcastle disease was confirmed
in a backyard chicken that lived in Alameda
County when the bird’s owner brought it to
a veterinary office in Redwood City, accord-
ing to a statement issued by the state
Department of Food and Agriculture March
15.
It’s not yet clear whether vND will spread
throughout Northern California, but
Lindsay Wildlife officials said Monday
they’re no longer able to treat injured or
baby wild turkeys, or most other non-
native, domestic or exotic birds that are rou-
tinely brought into the hospital by mis-
take.
They’re still treating injured and baby
quail, but newly implemented safety proce-
dures require that they be placed in quaran-
tine and treated off-site. The hospital is also
unable to accept donations of any products
or materials associated with poultry, like
egg cartons, because of the risk of contami-

Fire in detached
garage in Redwood City
A one-alarm fire was quickly extinguished
by firefighters at the detached garage of a
home in Redwood City early Monday morn-
ing, a battalion chief said.
The blaze was reported at 5:46 a.m. in the
LOCAL
tine area for vND in Southern California,
prohibiting poultry owners from moving
their livestock anywhere in Los Angeles
County as well as in portions of Riverside
and San Bernardino counties.
Birds typically die within a few days of
infection, and there is no cure, according to
the state. Humans who come into direct con-
tact with the infection may run a fever or
develop symptoms similar to conjunctivi-
tis, more commonly known as “pink eye.”
The March 14 positive test in Redwood
City appears to be the first reported case of
the disease in Northern California, causing
concern that the disease may have spread
north. But no other cases have been report-
ed so far.
Officials are also warning the owners of
small flocks to take precautions and keep an
eye on their birds.
“Do not transport any poultry, unless you
have confirmed it is not an area under quar-
antine,” San Mateo County officials said in
a news release.
The disease also prompted the San Mateo
County Fair to cancel its poultry show in its
Agricultural Livestock Department.
The Board of Directors will formally take
action on the Poultry Show suspension on
March 27 at its regularly scheduled board
meeting.

A 16-year-old San Francisco boy was arrested Monday

Officers received an anonymous tip just after 5:35 p.m.
Friday and began working with Serra High School staff to
determine the credibility and nature of the threat. They also
increased patrols in the vicinity of the campus, listed at 451
West 20th Ave., with both uniformed and plain-clothes offi-
cers.
They’ve also conducted a “threat assessment” with the
San Mateo County Board of Education Threat Assessment

Police say the threat has been contained, and that the
school and students who attend there are safe, but they urged
parents to discuss the consequences of threatening violence

SAN FRANCISCO — A federal appeals court today upheld

Kate Steinle, 32, was killed while walking on Pier 14 in
San Francisco on July 1, 2015, by a ricocheting bullet from
a gun held by Jose Ines Garcia Zarate.
Garcia Zarate, a Mexican citizen with a history of drug
convictions and deportations, was released from San
Francisco county jail two and a half months earlier. The jail
staff did not inform ICE about the release.
Garcia Zarate was acquitted in a San Francisco Superior
Court trial of Steinle's murder, but was convicted of being
an ex-felon in possession of a gun. He is appealing that
conviction.
The lawsuit by parents James Steinle and Elizabeth
Sullivan still contains an additional claim against the U.S.
Bureau of Land Management. The gun held by Garcia Zarate
was stolen four days earlier from a bureau ranger's car, and
the parents claim the ranger violated a duty to secure the
loaded handgun properly.

Questions about Mueller report left in Barr’s hands
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Special counsel Robert
Mueller had two key questions before him: Did
the Trump campaign collude with the Russian
government during the 2016 election, and did
President Donald Trump commit obstruction of
justice? On the collusion question, Mueller pro-
vided an unambiguous “no.” But on obstruc-
tion, he punted.
It’s a decision that’s puzzled some former
Justice Department officials who say prosecu-
tors at Mueller’s level typically make their own
charging recommendations rather than leave
them to higher-ups. By not acting, Mueller left
the politically charged obstruction question in
the hands of a Trump appointee, Attorney
General William Barr, who even before he took
office expressed skepticism about whether the
president’s action constituted a crime. On
Sunday, Barr said there was insufficient evidence
Trump obstructed justice by trying to interfere
with Mueller’s probe.
Barr’s decision to exonerate Trump on the
obstruction issue — when Mueller pointedly
didn’t — is being cited by Democrats as they
press for the release of Mueller’s entire report. It
is likely to revive scrutiny of the attorney gen-
Duke pays $112M to settle faked-research lawsuit
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
RALEIGH, N.C. — Duke University will
pay $112 million to settle a whistleblower
lawsuit after federal prosecutors said a
research technician’s fake data landed mil-
lions of dollars in federal grants, the school
and the government said Monday.
The private university in Durham submit-
ted claims for dozens of research grants that
contained falsified or fabricated information
that unjustly drained taxpayer money from
the National Institutes of Health, the
Environmental Protection Agency and other
federal agencies, the U.S. Justice Department
said. The school said it is repaying grant
money and related penalties.
“Taxpayers expect and deserve that federal
grant dollars will be used efficiently and hon-
estly,” local U.S. Attorney Matthew G.T.
Martin said in a statement. “May this serve
as a lesson that the use of false or fabricated
data in grant applications or reports is com-

eral’s own views on
obstruction and presiden-
tial power, which he shared
with the White House
before his nomination in
December.
“I find this to be very
unusual that there was this
question left open and pre-
Robert Mueller sented by the special coun-
sel,” said Tim Purdon, the
former United States attorney for North Dakota
during the Obama administration. “As U.S.
attorney, usually you have the last say. You’re
the decider, you decide what to do.”
“But of course,” Purdon added, “these are
unusual circumstances.”
Among those unusual circumstances: Justice
Department legal opinions say sitting presi-
dents cannot be indicted. Barr said he and his
deputy, Rod Rosenstein, did not consider that
fact in concluding that Trump didn’t obstruct
justice, but it’s not clear whether Mueller had.
Obstruction of justice also requires proof of
criminal intent, which may have been hard for
prosecutors to establish without an in-person
interview with Trump.

pletely unacceptable.”
The lawsuit was first filed in 2015 by
whistleblower and former Duke employee
Joseph Thomas. The Justice Department
took it over afterward. The suit claims the
faked research was conducted by former
research technician Erin Potts-Kant, who
was supervised by pulmonary medicine
researcher William Michael Foster. Foster’s
lab experimented with mice, seeking to
determine the effects of inhaling diesel
exhaust, among other tests. Several research
papers by Foster’s team were later retracted.
“We expect Duke researchers to adhere
always to the highest standards of integrity,
and virtually all of them do that with great
dedication,” university President Vincent
Price said in a statement. “When individuals
fail to uphold those standards, and those who
are aware of possible wrongdoing fail to
report it, as happened in this case, we must
accept responsibility, acknowledge that our
processes for identifying and preventing
said the evidence “was suffi-
ciently ambiguous on the
issue of criminal intent.”
Combining that with the
department’s policy
against prosecuting a sit-
ting president, Frenkel
noted that a more definitive
finding “may satisfy politi-
William Barr cal pundits and the public
but may not serve a true
Department of Justice interest” in determining
whether or not to pursue charges.
Mueller’s team told Barr and Rosenstein
about three weeks ago that it would not reach a
conclusion on obstruction, according to a
Justice Department official who said the deci-
sion was unexpected. The official, who spoke
on condition of anonymity Monday to discuss
private conversations, would not say whether
Mueller had asked or invited Barr to substitute
his own judgment. Rosenstein had been heavi-
ly involved in the investigation since appoint-
ing Mueller as special counsel in May 2017.
Barr’s decision to weigh in on the obstruction
issue is noteworthy because of an unsolicited
memo he sent in June to the Justice Department
and shared with White House lawyers, making
misconduct did not work, and take steps to
improve.”
The settlement was announced on the same
day that U.S. District Judge Catherine Eagles
had scheduled a hearing on why the deal sup-
posedly struck in November hadn’t been
finalized by the Justice Department.
The government alleged that between
2006 and 2018 Duke knowingly submitted
faked data to federal agencies in 30 grants.
The university had warning signs that some
of the research was fraudulent but didn’t act
until discovering in 2013 that Potts-Kant
had siphoned off money for spending on
clothes and other items, the lawsuit said.
Duke University said the technician plead-
ed guilty to two counts of forgery in state
court and paid the school restitution. Foster
retired in 2015, university spokesman
Michael Schoenfeld said.
Thomas, the whistleblower, will get

government said.

known his views on obstruction and presiden-
tial power.
He criticized the theory of obstruction that
Mueller appeared to be pursuing as “fatally mis-
conceived,” including scrutiny of the presi-
dent’s firing of former FBI director James
Comey. Barr argued that if Mueller concluded
actions the president is generally legally per-
mitted to do could constitute obstruction
because of a subjective determination that they
were done with corrupt intent, the decision
could be disastrous for the presidency and the
Justice Department.
Barr defended the memo during his confirma-
tion hearing in January, saying it was narrowly
focused on a single theory of obstruction that
media reports suggested Mueller might be con-
sidering. Responding to lawmakers’ questions,
Barr said he believed a president can commit
obstruction by destroying evidence or tamper-
ing with witnesses.
The obstruction question had long been cen-
tral to Mueller’s investigation. Prosecutors
examined a series of actions by the president,
including his firing of Comey and his drafting
of an incomplete explanation about his son’s
meeting with a Russian lawyer, to determine
whether Trump had tried to hamper the inquiry.
Duke is still dealing with a different
research scandal dating back more than a
decade. Duke medical professor Dr. Anil Potti
engaged in misconduct while researching
treatments in human cancer patients, U.S.
Health and Human Services Department
investigators said in 2015. Potti’s studies
were published in top medical journals
including the New England Journal of
Medicine and Lancet Oncology between
2006 and 2009.
In a settlement reached with the federal
health agency, Potti did not acknowledge lia-
bility but agreed to have all his research
supervised until 2020. Potti left Duke in
2010. Duke settled lawsuits brought by
patients and estates of patients who partici-
pated in those medical trials.
As a result of both cases, the National
Institutes of Health last year required Duke
University researchers to increase their
reporting of how federal grant money was
being spent.

High-profile lawyers charged with extorting Nike

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Michael Avenatti, the pug-
nacious attorney best known for represent-
ing porn actress Stormy Daniels in lawsuits
against President Donald Trump, was arrested
Monday on charges that included trying to
shake down Nike for as much as $25 million
by threatening the company with bad public-
ity.
Avenatti, who was also accused of embez-
zling a client’s money to pay his own
expenses, was charged with extortion and
bank and wire fraud in separate cases in New
York and California. He was arrested at a New
York law firm where he had gone to meet
with Nike executives. It was just minutes
after he tweeted that he planned to hold a
news conference Tuesday to “disclose a
major high school/college basketball scan-
dal perpetrated by (at)Nike that we have
uncovered.”
“When lawyers use their law licenses as
weapons, as a guise to extort payments for
themselves, they are no longer acting as
attorneys. They are acting as criminals,”
said Geoffrey S. Berman, the U.S. attorney
in New York.
California investigators had been building
a case against Avenatti for more than a year,
but prosecutors in New York said their inves-
tigation began only last week and was com-
pleted in days.
In the California
case, Avenatti allegedly
misused a client’s
money to pay his debts
and those of his coffee
business and law firm.
Federal prosecutors
said he also defrauded a
Mississippi bank by
using phony tax returns
to obtain millions of
Michael dollars in loans.
Avenatti The allegations
“paint an ugly picture
of lawless conduct and greed,” said Nick
Hanna, the U.S. attorney in Los Angeles.
Avenatti describes himself on Twitter as an
attorney and advocate, but the accusations
describe “a corrupt lawyer who instead fights
for his own selfish interests.”
The arrest was a sharp reversal of fortune
for the 48-year-old lawyer, who, less than a
year ago, emerged as a leading figure in the
anti-Trump movement, with relentless cable
news appearances, a hard-punching style and
a knack for obtaining information about
others’ wrongdoing.
Avenatti appeared briefly in court Monday
evening and was ordered released on
$300,000 bond. He did not enter a plea, and
he did not respond to emails, phone calls or
text messages from the Associated Press.
Donald Trump Jr. gloated over the arrest
on Twitter.
“Good news for my
f r i e n d
(at)MichaelAvenatti, if
you plead fast enough,
you might just get to
share a cell with Michael
Cohen!” he wrote, refer-
ring to the former Trump
lawyer set to go to
prison next month for
Mark Geragos crimes that include
orchestrating hush-
money payments to Daniels.
Avenatti allegedly threatened to hold a
news conference last week on the eve of
Nike’s quarterly earnings call and the start of
the NCAA tournament to announce allega-
tions of misconduct by Nike employees. The
attorney and a co-conspirator demanded to be
paid $15 million to $25 million and an addi-
tional $1.5 million for an Avenatti client to
remain silent, the complaint said.
Two people familiar with the investiga-
tion confirmed that the unidentified co-con-
spirator was Mark Geragos, a Los Angeles
criminal defense lawyer known for his work
with celebrities. The people spoke on condi-
tion of anonymity because the information
was not made public by prosecutors.
Geragos, a CNN contributor, has a client
list that has included Michael Jackson,
Winona Ryder, Scott Peterson and most
recently Jussie Smollett, the actor accused of
fabricating a racist, anti-gay attack in
Chicago. Geragos did not respond to mes-
sages seeking comment. Within hours, CNN
cut ties with him.
The Avenatti client is a coach of an amateur
athletic union men’s basketball program in
California, according to the papers. The
AAU program coached by the client was
sponsored by Nike for $72,000 annually,
the complaint said.
Shortly before the charges came to light,
Avenatti tweeted that he planned to hold
another news conference regarding Nike on
Tuesday. Less than 45 minutes later, prosecu-
tors announced the extortion case and his
arrest.
While lawyers sometimes make demands
to seek out-of-court settlements, they can-
not threaten to go public with damaging
information to get something of value or
gain leverage in a civil dispute, attorney
Neama Rahmani said.
“The Department of Justice historically
has been very cautious when charging attor-
neys, so they likely have evidence that
Avenatti seriously crossed this line,” said
Rahmani, a former federal prosecutor.
Nike officials told investigators that
Avenatti claimed to know of rules violations
by an amateur basketball team sponsored by
Nike. Executives immediately reported the
threats to federal authorities.

Pentagon: missile defense test succeeds

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — In the first test of its
kind, the Pentagon on Monday carried out a
“salvo” intercept of an unarmed missile
soaring over the Pacific, using two inter-
ceptor missiles launched from underground
silos in southern California.
Both interceptors zeroed in on the target
— a re-entry vehicle that had been launched
4,000 miles away atop an intercontinten-

Some Americans cheer Mueller’s report, others feel let down
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
PHILADELPHIA — The first glimpse into
the special counsel’s investigation of
Russian interference in the 2016 election did
little to mend a gaping American political
divide.
The four-page summary of Robert
Mueller’s probe released by Attorney General
William Barr didn’t satisfy many who wanted
more details. But in a bitterly divided coun-
try, the little bit that was known stirred
cheers from many Republicans and scoffs
from many Democrats.

Melting Greenland glacier growing again
WASHINGTON — A major Greenland gla-

and snow masses on Earth is growing again,
a new NASA study finds.
The Jakobshavn (YA-cob-shawv-en) gla-
cier around 2012 was retreating about 1.8
miles (3 kilometers) and thinning nearly
130 feet (almost 40 meters) annually. But it
started growing again at about the same rate
in the past two years, according to a study in

and outside scientists think this is tempo-

else,” said Stephen Turner, an electrical engi-
neer from Belmont, North Carolina, who is
Republican and voted for Trump. “I wish it’d
just go away.”
Across the union, the split reaction to the
Mueller news repeated.
In West Palm Beach, Florida, along the
route Trump’s motorcade took before return-
ing to Washington on Air Force One, Mary
Jude Smith got a wave and a smile from the
chief executive. The 71-year-old retiree from
Hypoluxo, Florida, speaks about him with
passion and insists he has been exonerated.
She sees the investigation as Democrats’
pathetic attempt to impeach Trump.
“I think Mueller was a crook. He wasted
millions of our tax dollars for nothing,” she
got used to a runaway system, ” said
Geological Survey of Denmark and
Greenland ice and climate scientist Jason
Box.
Box, who wasn’t part of the study, said
Jakobshavn is “arguably the most impor-
tant Greenland glacier because it discharges
the most ice in the northern hemisphere.
For all of Greenland, it is king.”
A natural cyclical cooling of North
Atlantic waters likely caused the glacier to
reverse course, said study lead author Ala
Khazendar, a NASA glaciologist on the
Oceans Melting Greenland (OMG) project.
Khazendar and colleagues say this coincides
with a flip of the North Atlantic Oscillation
— a natural and temporary cooling and
warming of parts of the ocean that is like a
distant cousin to El Nino in the Pacific.
said, before offering her assessment of
Trump: “He’s as clean as the driven snow.”
In blue-state New York, 49-year-old film-
maker Dan Lee of Brooklyn Heights felt let
down by Mueller and left with more questions
than answers.
“It stings a little, because I trusted
Mueller,” said Lee, a Democrat. “There are
still so many questions and it seems incon-
ceivable that obstruction isn’t one of the
conclusions.”
In red-state West Virginia, 44-year-old
truck driver Michael Tucker of Bancroft,
declared the Russian investigation “a joke,
for the most part” and that Trump has been
treated unfairly.
“It’s one witch hunt after another,” said

Mueller’s full report by April 2. They also
want to begin receiving the underlying evi-
dence the same day. The information is
“urgently needed by our committees to per-
form their duties under the Constitution,”
they wrote, implying that the information
would be subpoenaed if it is not turned over
by the deadline.
Barr said in his letter to Congress that
Mueller did not find that Trump’s campaign
“conspired or coordinated” with the Russian
government to influence the 2016 presiden-
tial election — knocking down arguments
from Democrats who have long claimed there
was evidence of such collusion.
But he also said Mueller reached no conclu-
sion on whether Trump obstructed the federal
investigation, instead setting out “evidence
on both sides” of the question and stating
that “while this report does not conclude the
president committed a crime, it also does not
exonerate him.” Absent a recommendation
from Mueller, Barr stepped in and decided
there wasn’t sufficient evidence to establish
that the president obstructed justice.
Democrats said Barr’s judgment is not the
final word.
“All I’m interested in is them releasing the
full report, the full Mueller report,” said
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif.
Despite Mueller’s refusal to exonerate
Trump, his spokesmen and leading congres-
sional Republicans all claimed total vindica-
tion for the president anyway. Questioned by
reporters, Trump said he welcomed Mueller’s
results but complained he had been abused by
the investigation occurring at all and taking
too long.
THE DAILY JOURNAL
Tucker, who gave his vote to Trump in 2016
and likely will again next year. “If they could
have found anything, they would have.”
There were morsels in Barr’s letter both
sides could savor. For Republicans, it was
acknowledgement that there was no evidence
Trump or his campaign conspired with
Russia. For Democrats, it was the admission
that while Trump wasn’t charged with
obstruction, he also wasn’t exonerated.
Trump supporter Richard C. Osburn, 52, a
nurse from South Charleston, West Virginia,
said Mueller’s findings were proof the presi-
dent was “drug through the mud.” He knows
Democrats are “hell-bent” on destroying
Trump, but says it’s time for the president to
be given a break.
“We can never let this happen to another
president again,” he said. “There are a lot of
people out there that have done some very
evil things, very bad things, I would say
treasonous things against our country.”
“Those people will certainly be looked at.
I’ve been looking at them for a long time.
And I’m saying, why haven’t they been
looked at? They lied to Congress. Many of
them you know who they are.”
He didn’t name names, but Trump has spent
months railing against former Justice
Department officials, including former FBI
Director James Comey, accusing them of an
illegal witch hunt for the purpose of delegit-
imizing his presidency. He has also falsely
claimed that the investigation was based on
memos compiled by former British spy
Christopher Steele, and even blamed former
Sen. John McCain, who died last year, for
passing the memos to the FBI.
The investigation began months before
the FBI saw the dossier — and the FBI
already had a copy by the time McCain
turned it in.
On Monday, after a series of evening strat-
egy meetings, Democrats vowed to continue
their multiple investigations into Trump,
perhaps with shifted focus. House
Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam
Schiff, the California Democrat who has
become a focus of Republicans’ post-Mueller
ire, said he is “circumspect about how much
more we will be able to find on issues that he
thoroughly investigated,” but said Mueller’s
conclusion would not affect his own commit-
tee’s counterintelligence probes.
“There may be other corrupt meetings
between the Trump campaign and the
Russians, there may be other profound finan-
cial conflicts of interest that are not men-
tioned in the Mueller report, and there may
be unanswered questions even within what he
did examine,” Schiff said.

his may surprise anyone

an early summer night in

declining rapidly — and that’s not
good for anyone.
The first global review of reports of
insect population decline confirmed
what researchers have feared for a

regional, is in fact worldwide. Around
41 percent of all insect species have
seen a decline in the last 10 years, the

dying off at a rate of 2.5 percent per

OPINION
spread use of synthetic pesticides and
fertilizers, and increasingly inhos-
pitable temperatures in the tropics.
All of it is alarming — but scien-
tists are still quite in the dark when it
comes to the population collapse of
insects. To figure out just what is hap-
pening, why and what to do about it,
more information is needed. That's
where Maine is pitching in. The
Department of Inland Fisheries and
Wildlife is teaming with Maine
Audubon to study the decline here,
where there are anecdotal signs of
losses in butterflies, dragonflies, bee-
tles and other insects.
The department has put out calls to
entomologists and ecologists to see
what there is for data out there. Then
they'll start analyzing the data, with
the goal of conducting a long-term
survey of insect populations.
We should pay attention to the
results. There are many good reasons
for fighting climate change, and for
moving away from large-scale indus-
trial agriculture. Saving insects — the
building blocks of our ecosystems —
may not be the most popular, but it
may be one of the most important.
Making ends meet
Editor,
It is troubling to read that San
Mateo is unable to make ends meet.
We are enjoying an economic boom.
If they cannot balance their budget in
the good times, what will happen dur-
ing the bad?
How many tacky billboards can
they rent? How hard can they bite the
hands that feed them, by raising
taxes? Perhaps there are fundamental
fiscal problem that need addressing.
Meanwhile, lets hope we don’t have
an earthquake.

Local control and
state legislation
ho remembers back in January of 2018 when
state Sen. Scott Wiener, D-San Francisco intro-
duced Senate Bill 827? Mr. Wiener’s bill pro-
posed to reduce local control of land near public transit
stations. His reasoning was that the state’s so-called
“housing crisis” was getting so out of hand, the state
needed to step in and take over wherever a major transit
stop was close by. A major transit stop was defined as a
place where a person could
catch a bus or a train; to be
close by meant to be within a
half mile radius or less of a
stop. Cities, according to the
state senator, were being too
provincial and allowing the
“not-in-my-backyard” crowd to
prevent housing from being
built. Cities were accused of
planning and planning but
never actually building.
Wiener’s bill was, of course,
opposed by local governments Matt Grocott
and their biggest lobbying
group in the state Capitol, the League of California
Cities, aided the most in voicing opposition. By April of
2018, the cities had prevailed and the bill suffered defeat
while still in committee. If you thought to yourself when
reading the opening question above, “I don’t remember,”
the bill’s early defeat is probably why. It only made the
press briefly and then dropped out of sight.
Usually when a bill is defeated “in committee” as SB
827 was, it either goes away for good or comes back in
parts and pieces as add-ons to other bills. However,
Wiener promised in October of 2018 that he would bring
his bill back in whole with the start of the 2019 legisla-
tive session. Here we are in 2019 and he has done exactly
that! Of course, it has a new name, and is now known as
Senate Bill 50.
In San Mateo County, residents have probably heard of
SB 50 because recently the county Board of Supervisors,
at the request of supervisors Don Horsley and David
Canepa, scheduled a resolution for their consideration
that, if approved, would have given support to Mr.
Wiener’s bill. However, at their first meeting in March,
with the resolution before them, they took a pass. The
resolution was set aside as Supervisor Horsley opined
about needing to first meet with some of the “stakehold-
ers” in the cities he represents. Mr. Horsley represents
District 3 which includes the cities of Atherton, Half
Moon Bay, Pacifica, Portola Valley, San Carlos and
Woodside. His district also includes parts of Belmont and
Menlo Park. While Portola Valley and Woodside may not
have any “stakeholder” concerns with SB 50, the rest of
the cities in his district definitely would. The same could
be said of all the cities in Mr. Canepa’s district which
include Daly City, Colma, Brisbane, parts of San Bruno
and South San Francisco.
At issue when one considers the rub of SB 50 is the den-
sity of a building that could be built right next to a residen-
tial neighborhood with single-family homes. If the waivers
offered in SB 50 were to be all taken advantage of by a
developer, four- to five-story structures with less than ade-
quate parking could show up where unsuspecting homeown-
ers would least expect it: right next door to their homes! Is
this how thousands of homeowners in the cities of San
Mateo County wish to have their neighborhoods treated if
they happen to be near the Caltrain-El Camino Real corri-
dor or even those on the coast living near Highway 1?
When I hear people talking about all the building that
has already happened along the Caltrain-El Camino Real
corridor, what I hear are voices of concern. They are con-
cerned about the character of their city being changed too
quickly, the El Camino Real becoming canyon like, park-
ing spilling into their neighborhoods and the amount of
traffic becoming an issue from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.
As cited above, Supervisor Horsley said he wished to
speak with the “stakeholders” in the cities he represents
before taking any action in support of SB 50. He has his
work cut out for him! I would suggest that the “stakehold-
ers” are all the individual homeowners who live within a
half mile of either side of the Caltrain-El Camino Real
corridor and all those who live near Highway 1 on the
coast. To borrow two phrases from Wiener’s legislation,
those corridors are “transit rich” and are in a “job-rich
area.” Not to dismiss the other supervisors, it is all five
who need to be talking to the true “stakeholders.” I cer-
tainly hope they do so and with the same gusto they gave
in canvassing those neighborhoods when they cam-
paigned for election. If they were to do so and then report
back what they heard to Mr. Wiener, perhaps he would
understand that city planning is best left to cities.

Stocks end choppy day mixed amid global growth jitters
By Alex Veiga
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
U.S. stocks capped a day of choppy trading
with an uneven finish Monday as investors
wrestled to make sense of newly pessimistic
outlooks for the global economy.
Traders also weighed another troubling drop
in long-term bond yields, which many see as
a warning sign of a possible recession.
Large-company stocks ended broadly lower,
led by drops in big technology companies.
Apple fell 1.2 percent after announcing sever-
al new services including streaming video and
news. Small-company stocks fared better.
The bout of volatile trading left the S&P
500 index slightly lower, extending the
benchmark index’s losses from a broad mar-
ket sell-off last week.
“Today’s moves are very reflective of very
different interpretations of the environment
and risks ahead,” said Luke Tilley, chief econ-
omist at Wilmington Trust. “Different
investors and different investment shops are
interpreting the data very differently.”
The S&P 500 dropped 2.35 points, or 0.1
percent, to 2,798.36.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose
14.51 points, or 0.1 percent, to 25,516.83. It
was down as much as 130 and up as much as
100 earlier in the day.
The Nasdaq composite lost 5.13 points, or
0.1 percent, to 7,637.54. The Russell 2000
index of smaller company stocks picked up
6.94 points, or 0.5 percent, to 1,512.86.
Major European stock indexes finished
lower as uncertainty over Brexit continued.
Despite the market’s recent slide, the S&P
500 index is still up more than 11 percent so
far in 2019, an unusually strong start to a
year.

ing between gains and losses as investors
Apple finally jumps into streaming TV
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CUPERTINO — Jumping belatedly into a
business dominated by Netflix and Amazon,
Apple announced its own TV and movie
streaming service Monday, enlisting such
superstars as Oprah Winfrey, Jennifer
Aniston and Steven Spielberg to try to over-
come its rivals’ head start.
Apple didn’t disclose the price or the
launch date except to say that Apple TV Plus
will be available this fall. It will feature
Apple’s original shows and movies .
The company also unveiled a news sub-
scription service that will give customers
access to roughly 300 magazines and a few
major newspapers for $10 a month. And it
announced a new branded credit card.
The video-streaming venture is fraught
with risk for a company scrambling to diver-
sify beyond its star product, the iPhone,
whose sales have started to decline . Netflix,
which started its streaming service in 2007,
has 139 million subscribers worldwide.
But Apple has lots of money, more than
900 million active iPhones, and a track
record for innovation that has enabled it to
overtake its rivals, even when it enters a
business late, as it did with smartphones,
tablets and smartwatches.
In the past, of course, Apple has mostly
jumped into relatively small and undevel-
oped markets. Streaming video, by contrast,

Citing a global slowdown and trade con-

That’s in sharp contrast to the Trump

remains unlikely any time soon.
Worried investors have shifted money into
bonds, sending yields lower. The yield on the
10-year Treasury slid to 2.40 percent from
2.45 percent late Friday. At one point, the

Business brief
Survey: Business economists see
slowdown in growth this year
WASHINGTON — The nation’s business
economists foresee a sharp slowdown in
U.S. economic growth over the next two
years, in sharp contrast to the Trump admin-
istration’s predictions that growth will
accelerate this year and next.
That finding comes from the latest survey
by the National Association for Business
Economics being released Monday. Its econ-
omists collectively project that growth, as
measured by the gross domestic product, will
reach a modest 2.4 this year and just 2 per-
cent in 2020. Among the key factors in their
dimmer assessment are a global slowdown
and the ongoing trade conflicts between the
Trump administration and several major trad-
ing partners.

Fly like an Eagle
By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Running the 100-meter dash in the 12-
second range is a regular occurrence for
Menlo-Atherton senior Jessica Eagle.
At least now it is.
There was a time, though, not too long
ago, when the former pole-vaulter never
dreamed of turning in such elite sprint times.
“I always wanted to be a sprinter,” Eagle
said. “I just didn’t have the natural ability.
… I was one of those people who was stuck
in the 14s, 13s; but it’s something I always
wanted to be good at. It’s something I really
love doing.”
Now, the Daily Journal Athlete of the
Week is a serious contender to crack the 11s.
The reigning Central Coast Section champi-
on in the girls’ 100, Eagle nearly did it with
that effort as a junior by turning in a person-
al record of 12.02 seconds. This season,
she’s working her way back toward that
mark — and looking to surpass it — having
logged her best time March 16 at St. Francis
with a time of 12.20.
In the meantime, she’s ruling not just the
girls’ 100 but the 200 as well. This comes
with a caveat as her teammate, senior
Maggie Hall — reigning CCS champ in the
200 — started to compete in the event just
last week with her return from the winter
arena of soccer season.
So, when Eagle won the girls’ 200 last
Wednesday in a dual meet at Mills, she
recorded the best time in the CCS this sea-
son at 25.44 seconds.
“Yeah, to be honest, most weeks are pret-
ty good for Jessica,” M-A head coach Alan
Perry said. “She’s a pretty talented athlete
and one of the hardest workers I’ve ever
coached. … There’s a natural talent there but
she works hard to maximize it.”
M-A has plenty of depth and knows how to
use it. Since Eagle joined the track team as a
freshman, M-A has gone on to three-peat as
Peninsula Athletic League champs. The team
even emerged as a serious competitor on the
CCS stage last year, placing second among
girls’ teams at the section championships.

After her freshman campaign as a pole-

among the likes of Hall and an array of other

ground running for her senior season at M-
A. Through the indoor club season, she
competed independently, registering as
unattached to any team, and endured her first
go running on indoor wood floors.
Eagle is running toward something — a
top-flight Division I program. She has
interest from some Division I programs,
she said, but is still weighing her options.
Much of her drive comes from hoping to add
to that list of options.
“For the schools I would like to run for, I
have a little more work to do,” Eagle said.
As for the immediate future, Eagle is look-
shares with Hall on the track. The two ran
their first 4x100 relay together Saturday —
along with seniors Autriyana Hardy and
Lauren Collinsworth — to top the podium
with a time of 49.57.
Perry said the natural foot speed is there
for the 4x100 team to contend for a CCS
title this year — last season Eagle and com-
pany took third place at the section meet —
though the baton work with Hall rejoining
the lineup is going to be the determinant as
to their taking it to the next level.
“They have every reason to be confident
if they get their handoff down,” Perry said.
“They can run with a lot of really fast teams
and they’re one of the teams that can be one
they all know there’s a lot of improvements
they can make … and they’re working hard
on doing that every day.”
For Eagle, though, Hall’s return is certain-
ly a welcome one. Sure, that means Hall will
likely rule the CCS leaderboard in the 200.
But that’s all right. Eagle’s time to shine is
in the 100. And she knows one of the
secrets to her success is her longtime train-
ing partner.
“She really has pushed me all these four
years,” Eagle said. “If she wasn’t on this
team, I always say I wouldn’t know where I’d
be. … I’m really lucky to have someone
with her speed to keep up my intensity in

Woods to open Match Play
Red Wings 3, Sharks 2
Sharks can’t catch Wings against Tour rookie of year
By Gideon Rubin
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN JOSE — The Sharks are in a
freefall at most inopportune time.
Dylan Larkin scored in the first
minute, Jonathan Bernier had 38
saves and the Detroit Red Wings
beat the Sharks 3-2 Monday night.
The Red Wings have won four of
their last five games after going 1-
9-3 over their previous 13.
The Sharks lost their season-high
sixth (0-5-1) straight game. It’s
their longest skid since going 0-6-0
in March 2017.
Larkin scored his 28th goal on a
breakaway 38 seconds into the first
period , faking a forehand shot before
slipping a backhander past Martin
Jones, who finished with 20 saves.
“It was the first shift of the game
they scored, and it seems like
that’s been happening too often
lately, ” Sharks center Logan
Couture said. “We’re falling
behind 1-0 early, and then you’re
fighting to get back in it. We got
to figure out a way to get leads.”
San Jose is in second place in the
Pacific Division, six points behind
Calgary, which lost to Los Angeles
3-0. The Sharks maintained a five-
point lead over third-place Vegas,
which lost to St. Louis, 3-1.
San Jose has just six regular-sea-
son games remaining. The Sharks
have already clinched a playoff
spot.

Straus back in cage after motorcycle crash
By Greg Beacham
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Daniel Straus knows he isn’t
stepping into the Bellator cage on
Friday night in ideal fighting con-
dition.
Just 15 months ago, he was tem-
porarily paralyzed in a motorcycle
crash. While he has re-learned how
to walk, run and train, his recovery
is far from finished.
But no 34-year-old mixed martial
artist survives 32 pro bouts without
scars and injuries. Straus already
had his share before he slid his bike
under that guardrail on a Florida
freeway in December 2017.
“I don’t want people to think that
I’ve just magically healed,” he said.
“I still have an issue with my neck.
I’m just able to move forward in my
career before I eventually have to
have the surgery done.”
And while he doesn’t recall
details about the late-night crash,
he is still hard-wired with the work
ethic and steady determination that
propelled a former high school
wrestler out of a Florida prison and
into two stints as Bellator’s feath-
erweight champion.
Straus is determined to get it all
back.

JAYNE KAMIN-ONCEA/USA TODAY SPORTS
Daniel Straus returns to the MMA ring Friday at Bellator 219 after missing
15 months due to being temporarily paralyzed in a motorcycle crash.
“This is what I love doing, and
this is my life,” Straus said. “I don’t
have much, so I can’t give this up
that easily. I don’t have a college
degree. I don’t have a high school
diploma. I don’t have a resume or a
work history from the past 10 years.
All I have is fighting. So if you
think I’m just going to walk away
from something I put my whole life
into that easily, you’re just wrong.”
Straus (24-8) returns against
Shane Kruchten at Bellator 219 at
the Pechanga Resort and Casino in
State, Oregon and UCLA. This is
the fourth straight year at least
four Pac-12 teams made it to
regional semifinals.
The Cardinal pulled away using a
16-0 run in the third quarter as
scrappy BYU (26-7) missed 10
straight shots during that decisive
stretch. The Cougars went ahead

with 7:50 left in the quarter before

SPORTS
Temecula, California.
Straus is refreshingly honest
about his career and his recovery —
a rarity in a dangerous sport that
demands indefatigable optimism.
He was a successful high school
wrestler in his native Cincinnati,
but academic troubles kept him
away from a collegiate career.
He realizes that wrestling was “a
little bit easier for me. I was one of
those gifted athletes that just had a
lot of natural talent. So yeah, I was
determined to win, of course, but I

didn’t have to do much. But now
I’m in a position where there’s
other guys that are just as talented,
if not more. Just as crafty, if not
more. Just as hungry, if not more.
So now, more than ever, I have to
have that determination. I have to
have that will, and be able to dig
deep and push myself.”
He spent three years in prison for
robbery in Florida shortly after high
school, but picked up MMA in
Cincinnati after his release. He made
his pro debut in February 2009 —
and after 14 fights in 14 months, he
joined Bellator. He has been in the
promotion ever since, winning and
losing the 145-pound belt twice.
Straus had neck problems long
before the crash, which bruised his
spinal cord severely enough to
cause paralysis. If he hadn’t been a
veteran fighter with an extra-thick
neck, the injuries could have been
much more dangerous.
He managed to talk his doctors
out of a procedure to fuse his verte-
brae immediately afterward, but he
knows he’ll need neck surgery
eventually.
He had an even bigger need for
competition — and for money after
15 months without a fight pay-
check.

“I’ve come to terms with the fact
that I am who I am,” Straus said. “I
feel how I feel. I’m a great fighter,
and I’ve mostly flown under the
radar my whole career. The money
fight, that might not (happen). But
one thing I want is definitely to get
my belt back. That’s always been
the goal. Ever since I started this
journey, my coaches back home in
Cincinnati would tell me, ‘You can
be and you will be a champion.’
Every time I even think about fight-
ing, that’s all I think about. I know
I can be on top. There’s nobody that
can tell me different. You’re a fool if
you think that I can’t.”

Rolled joints for aching joints: More seniors using cannabis
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LAGUNA WOODS — The group of white-
haired folks — some pushing walkers, oth-
ers using canes — arrive right on time at the
gates of Laguna Woods Village, an upscale
retirement community in the picturesque
hills that frame this Southern California
suburb a few miles from Disneyland.
There they board a bus for a quick trip to a
building that, save for the green Red Cross-
style sign in the window, resembles a trendy
coffee bar. The people, mostly in their 70s
and 80s, pass the next several hours enjoy-
ing a light lunch, playing a few games of
bingo and selecting their next month’s sup-
ply of cannabis-infused products.
“It’s like the ultimate senior experience,”
laughs 76-year-old retired beauty products
distributor Ron Atkin as he sits down to
watch the bingo at the back of the Bud and
Bloom marijuana dispensary in Santa Ana.
Most states now have legal medical mari-
juana, and 10 of them, including California,
allow anyone 21 or older to use pot recre-
ationally. The federal government still out-
laws the drug even as acceptance increases.
The 2018 General Social Survey, an annual
sampling of Americans’ views, found a
record 61 percent back legalization, and

those 65 and older are increasingly support-
ive.
Indeed, many industry officials say the
fastest-growing segment of their customer
base is people like Atkin — aging baby
boomers or even those a little older who are
seeking to treat the aches and sleeplessness
and other maladies of old age with the same
herb that many of them once passed around
at parties.
“I would say the average age of our cus-
tomers is around 60, maybe even a little
older,” said Kelty Richardson, a registered
nurse with the Halos Health clinic in
Boulder, Colorado, which provides medical
examinations and sells physician-recom-
mended cannabis through its online store.
Its medical director, Dr. Joseph Cohen,
conducts “Cannabis 101” seminars at the
nearby Balfour Senior Living community
for residents who want to know which
strains are best for easing arthritic pain or
improving sleep.
Relatively little scientific study has veri-
fied the benefits of marijuana for specific
problems. There’s evidence pot can relieve
chronic pain in adults, according to a 2017
report from the National Academies of
Sciences, Engineering and Medicine, but
the study also concluded that the lack of sci-
ify for the program. The state health secre-
tary then makes a final determination.
Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham is among
those who support adding opioid addiction
to the list.
Patients currently must meet at least one
of 21 conditions to qualify for a medical
marijuana card.
Of the nearly 70,000 enrolled patients in
New Mexico, slightly more than half list
post-traumatic stress disorder as a condi-
tion. Other conditions include severe
chronic pain and cancer.

Marijuana ER visits
climb in Denver study
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Five years after Colorado first legalized
marijuana, a new study shows pot’s bad
effects are sending more people to the emer-
gency room.
Inhaled marijuana caused the most severe
problems at one large Denver hospital.
Marijuana-infused foods and candies, called
edibles, also led to trouble. Patients came to
the ER with symptoms such as repeated
vomiting, racing hearts and psychotic
episodes.
The study, published Monday in Annals of
Internal Medicine, stemmed from tales of
tourists needing emergency care after gob-
bling too many marijuana gummies.
“It was hard to know if these were just
anecdotes or if there was a true phenome-
non,” said lead author Dr. Andrew Monte of
University of Colorado Health Emergency
Department in Denver.
Three deaths in Colorado tied to edible
products also prompted the study.
Emergency room records from Monte’s

prescription opiates he had been taking quit
working.
It was “desperation” that brought him
here, he said, adding that his doctors didn’t
suggest he try medical marijuana. But they
didn’t discourage him either.
The dispensary is filled with the 50 peo-
ple from the bus as they peruse counters and
coolers containing everything from gel
caps to drops to cannabis-infused drinks,
not to mention plenty of old-fashioned
weed.
Adele Frascella, leaning on her cane, pur-
chases a package of gummy candies she
says helps keep her arthritic pain at bay.
“I don’t like to take an opioid,” said
Frascella, 70.
Fashionably dressed with sparkling sil-
ver earrings, Frascella confirms with a
smile that she was a pot smoker in her
younger days.
“I used to do it when I was like 18, 19,
20,” she said. “And then I had a baby, got
married and stopped.”
She took it up again a few years ago, even
investing in a “volcano,” a pricey, high-
tech version of the old-fashioned bong that
Gizmodo calls “the ultimate stoner gadget.”
But these days, like many other seniors, she
prefers edibles to smoking.
hospital show a three-fold increase in mari-
juana cases since the state became the first
to allow sales of recreational marijuana in
January 2014. Nearly a third of patients
were admitted to the hospital, evidence of
severe symptoms, Monte said.
In 2012, the ER saw an average of one
patient every other day with a marijuana-
caused problem. By 2016, the count was
two to three per day.
That’s not enough to swamp the emer-
gency department, Monte said, but it stress-
es an already burdened system.
Most people can use marijuana safely,
Monte said, but with its increased availabil-
ity and higher THC concentrations, “we
may be seeing more adverse drug reactions,”
he said.
THC is the part of marijuana that gets peo-
ple high.
A growing cannabis industry promotes
the drug as a cure-all while downplaying
dangers, said Dr. Erik Messamore, a psychi-
atrist at Northeast Ohio Medical University
who wasn’t involved in the research. More

Israel strikes Gaza targets
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
JERUSALEM — Israeli forces on Monday struck targets
across the Gaza Strip, including the offices of Hamas’ supreme
leader, in response to a surprise rocket attack from the
Palestinian territory, as the military bolstered its troops and
rocket-defense systems in anticipation of a
new round of heavy fighting with the
Islamic militant group.
Israel opened public bomb shelters in
most major cities and civil defense authori-
ties canceled sports events and public trans-
portation in southern Israel. The Israeli
army said at least 30 rockets had been fired
CARLOS BARRIA/REUTERS
Donald Trump holds a proclamation recognizing Israel's into Israel, as air raid sirens wailed across
southern Israel late Monday night. The

Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Bejamin army said nearly all of the rockets were

“Israel will not tolerate this. I will not
rocket fire could be heard in Gaza, setting off air-raid sirens in
southern Israel.
Ahead of the Israeli airstrikes, Hamas’ leadership went into
hiding.
Several airstrikes rocked Gaza, including an explosion that
destroyed the office of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh. The Israeli
military confirmed the bombing, saying the building had
“served as an office for many military meetings.” An earlier
blast destroyed a multistory building in Gaza City that Israel
said had served as a Hamas military intelligence headquarters.
There were no immediate reports of casualties. In both blasts,
Israel fired warning shots to evacuate the buildings. But the
airstrike on the multistory building was so powerful it sent
debris flying onto the roof of The Associated Press bureau,
located on the 11th floor of a nearby high-rise.
The sudden conflagration came at a time when both
Netanyahu and his Hamas foes are in desperate situations.
Netanyahu is in a tight race for re-election, and just two weeks

Trump reverses tolerate this,” Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared

during a White House meeting with President Donald Trump.
“Israel is responding forcefully to this wanton aggression,”
he said. “We will do whatever we must do to defend our people
before the April 9 vote, faces tough criticism from challengers
who accuse him of being too soft on Hamas.
In Washington to celebrate the U.S. recognition of Israel’s
control of the Golan Heights, Netanyahu instead was forced to

Late Monday, Hamas announced that a cease-fire had been
brokered by Egyptian mediators. But shortly after, renewed
cut short his trip under heavy pressure to strike back at Hamas.
Later Monday, Netanyahu remained in Washington past his
scheduled departure time, huddled in conference calls with secu-
rity officials, Israeli media said.

Golan Heights
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump signed a

proclamation on Monday recognizing Israel’s sovereignty
over the Golan Heights, reversing more than a half-century
of U.S. policy in the Middle East.
Standing alongside Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin
Netanyahu at the White House, Trump made formal a move
he announced in a surprise tweet last week.
The president said it was time for the U.S. to take the step
after 52 years of Israeli control of the strategic highlands
on the border with Syria. The U.S. is the first country to rec-
ognize Israel’s sovereignty over the Golan, which the rest
of the international community regards as Israeli-occupied.
Syria and neighboring Lebanon denounced the move, and
at least two NATO members, Canada and Turkey, said they
would not follow suit.
Trump said his decision would cement the Jewish state’s
ability to defend itself from regional threats should a broad
Arab-Israeli peace deal ever be reached. Trump’s action also
likely gives Netanyahu a political boost ahead of what’s
expected to be a close Israeli election.
Israel has long argued that the strategically important
area has, for all practical purposes, been fully integrated
into Israel since it was captured from Syria in the 1967
Mideast war and that control of the strategic plateau is need-
ed as protection from Iran and its allies in Syria.
“Today, aggressive acts by Iran and terrorist groups,
including Hezbollah, in southern Syria continue to make
the Golan Heights a potential launching ground for attacks
on Israel,” Trump said in the proclamation.

Perilous times for kids hit by cyclone Russia expects

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BEIRA, Mozambique — Her name is Chuva, which in

Portuguese means rain. For four days that was all she saw as she
clung to her rooftop in the cyclone’s aftermath and prayed to
be saved.
Maria Chuva clasped her 5-year-old daughter, Amiel, to her
tightly as she recounted the panic of opening her front door to
water that came up to her neck, and scrambling with her fami-
ly to the roof.
Now, after elbowing her way onto a rescue boat for a bewil-
dering journey with her two girls to the inundated port city of
Beira, she paused in the din of a displacement camp to reflect
on losing everything but her children — and the splintered
families now around her. The orphans are especially hard for
her to bear.
“It hurts me so bad,” she said.
An estimated 900,000 children have been orphaned or sepa-
rated from their families, made homeless or otherwise affected
by Cyclone Idai, half of the 1.8 million people impacted over-
all, according to Mozambican government figures.
The children crowd displacement camps, sleeping rough on
plastic tarps on bare brick floors, or on the wooden benches of
crowded schools.
They slide down wooden bannisters, teeter on rain-slickened
tile stairs near open cooking fires on the concrete floor. They
play checkers with bottle caps. They squat around a metal pot
as big as themselves, scraping its sides with their bare hands
for the last remaining kernels of rice.
No one yet knows how many are orphaned, just as no one
knows how many people in the cyclone-hit countries of
Mozambique, Zimbabwe and Malawi are dead or missing.
Families were separated in the chaos. Many children lost a
mother or father, or both.
“We have quite a few orphans,” Henrietta Fore, executive
director of the U.N. organization for children, UNICEF, told a
press conference at U.N. headquarters in New York on Monday.
“We have calls out to their families. When they don’t respond
for two or three days we have to fear the worst. So it is a very
difficult situation for them.”
Initial assessments in Beira indicate that more than 2,600
classrooms have been destroyed and 39 health centers impact-
ed. At least 11,000 houses have been totally destroyed. “This
will have serious consequences on children’s education, access
to health services, and mental well-being,” Fore said after her
visit to Beira.
tensions to stay
despite report
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
MOSCOW — Russia savored an “I told you so” moment
Monday after special counsel Robert Mueller found no col-
lusion between President Donald Trump’s campaign and
Moscow. Government officials also dismissed the exten-
sive evidence uncovered by Mueller of
Russian cyber-meddling in the 2016
presidential election.
“It’s hard to find a black cat in a dark
room, especially if it isn’t there, ”
President Vladimir Putin’s spokesman
Dmitry Peskov told reporters, insisting
that Russia has never interfered in elec-
tions in the U.S. or any other countries.
While Mueller found no evidence
Vladimir Putin Trump’s campaign “conspired or coordi-
nated” with Moscow to sway the election
in his favor, he uncovered multi-pronged Russian meddling
and indicted 25 Russians on charges of hacking Democratic
email accounts and spreading disinformation on social
media.
The Russian Foreign Ministry rejected those charges as
“ridiculous” and “politically motivated” and denounced
Mueller’s investigation as a waste of taxpayer money stem-
ming from the Democrats’ effort to discredit Trump.
“Colossal efforts and significant taxpayers’ funds have
been spent to refute a clear fake,” it said.
