Open access
bill heading
to Assembly
By Samantha Weigel
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Legislation aimed at reopening
Martins Beach has traveled a
rocky path the last few months,
but it jumped another hurdle
Thursday after being taken out of
suspense and will now make its
way to the Assembly oor.
As coastal rights activists rose
against the wealthy property
owner closing the only access
road to the secluded crescent-
shaped beach just south of Half
Moon Bay, state Sen. Jerry Hill,
D-San Mateo, created Senate Bill
968 as a bargaining chip.
SB 968 would require billionaire
venture capitalist Vinod Khosla,
who purchased the property for
$32.5 million in 2008, to negoti-
ate with the State Lands
Commission, or SLC, to create
public access. The bill passed the
Legislation to reopen Martins Beach

A Redwood City mans rights
were not violated when a prosecu-
tor told jurors in his vehicular
manslaughter trial that he proved
himself guilty by not asking
about the welfare of the other cars
occupants, the California Supreme
Court ruled
Thursday in a
split decision
that restores his
conviction in
the 2007 crash.
In a 4-3 rul-
ing, the court
overturned the
First District
Court of Appeals 2012 ruling that
reversed Richard Toms convic-
tion in the death of 8-year-old
Sydney Ng. The lower court found
that prosecutor Shin-Mee Chang
violated Toms right against self-
incrimination by arguing his
silence after the collision was
substantive evidence of guilt.
But the state Supreme Court dis-
agreed, arguing that Tom never
specifically invoked his Fifth
Amendment right to remain
silent.
Tom was sentenced to seven
years for the February 2007 crash
that killed Ng and seriously
injured her sister and mother. He
was about halfway through when
his conviction was overturned and
has been out on $300,000 bail
pending the Supreme Court deci-
sion.
Toms appellate attorney Marc
Zilversmit called the ruling terri-
bly dangerous because it doesnt
clarify when a person has the right
not to speak with police.
Its not going to help prosecu-
Supreme Court restores fatal crash conviction

Simple, affordable and high-
quality jewelry will be on display
at the Burlingame on the Avenue
annual festival that celebrates the
near completion of the $16 mil-
lion streetscape project.
The jewelry is created by San
Carlos artist Wendy Shray, who
runs her own company called
Wendy Shray Designs on the
online marketplace Etsy. She
describes her work as everyday
wear thats inspired by the
Southwestern styles shown in
Sundance Catalog. These items
will be featured on the rst day of
the two-day event on Burlingame
Avenue.
What I love about it is theres
so much beauty
in the materials
themselves, so
when Im buy-
ing materials I
fall in love with
the materials,
she said.
Theres a lot of
satisfaction to
create some-
thing someone wears.
Shray, a mom of two and 23-year
resident of San Carlos, left her
work in the pharmaceutical and
biotech industry 10 years ago to
take care of her children and took
up jewelry making at that time. As
a teen, she had done sewing and
has always been crafty.
Other handcrafted fashions
offered by Shray include yoga jew-
elry, such as her om or lotus
charms, minimalist jewelry, bat
mitzvah jewelry necklaces and
bridesmaid wear. A typical item
from Shray is sterling silver or 14
karat gold-filled material wire
wrapped with gemstones for
bracelets, anklets and necklaces
with matching earrings. She also
uses freshwater pearls, crystals,
glass beads, feathers, stone, bone
and leather.
I started with making stuff for
myself and gifts for teachers, she
said. Just having a passion for
collecting the materials, so I real-
ized I needed to create something
from everything I collected.
Shray, who is from New Mexico
herself, likes to include Southwest

California women call
police over cats furry fury
CHULA VISTA Two San Diego
County women had to get help from
police after being trapped in a bedroom
by a family cat that a neighbor calls a
ball of fury.
Chula Vista police tell KGTV-TV a
woman and her adult daughter called
911 Tuesday to say they were stuck in
the bedroom because their cat Cuppy
was in a rage and wouldnt let them
leave.
Police say such matters are usually
left to animal control, but officers
decided to help out on a quiet night.
They say eventually the cat walked out
on its own.
Neighbor Karen Yarger says the cat
has been a family pet for years but is
unpredictable.
A Portland, Oregon, family went
through a similar ordeal, when their cat
Lux attacked a baby and boxed his own-
ers in a bedroom.
Lake Tahoe man accused
of attempted murder
SOUTH LAKE TAHOE A South
Lake Tahoe man accused of striking his
female roommate in the head with a rub-
ber mallet has been arrested for suspi-
cion of attempted murder.
South Lake Tahoe police say 47-year-
old Steven Post was booked into the
local jail where he was being held with-
out bail.
Sgt. Shannon Laney says a verbal
argument escalated Tuesday night
before Post grabbed a rubber mallet and
struck the woman several times in the
head and arm.
Laney says she was transported to
Barton Memorial Hospital and later
own to Renown Medical Center in
Reno where her condition was not
known.
Lake Tahoe News reports Post was
arrested in 2010 and 2011 on charges
of battering the same woman but was
not convicted either time. Post told
police the two have lived together for
18 years, but were not romantically
involved.
Woman shot by police in San Jose
SAN JOSE San Jose police say an
ofcer shot a woman after responding
to a report of someone with an Uzi
threatening to kill family members.
Ofcers were called to a home a little
after 10:30 a.m. Thursday. Police
spokesman Albert Morales says at
some point a woman emerged from the
residence, and an ofcer opened re.
It was not immediately clear what
prompted the shooting. The womans
condition also was not known.

Scientists say seven microscopic
particles collected by NASAs comet-
chasing spacecraft, Stardust, appear to
have originated outside our solar sys-
tem. If conrmed, this would be the
worlds rst sampling of contemporary
interstellar dust.
They are very precious particles,
the team leader, physicist Andrew
Westphal of the University of
California, Berkeley, said in a state-
ment Thursday.
The dust collectors were exposed to
what is believed to be the interstellar
dust stream in the early 2000s and
returned to Earth in 2006. Since then,
dozens of scientists worldwide led by
Westphal have examined scans of the
collection panels to zero in on the par-
ticles. The team was assisted by
30,000 citizen-scientists, dubbed
Dusters, who reviewed more than 1
million images in search of elusive
tracks made by incoming particles.
The findings were published
Thursday in the journal Science.
Westphal said the suspected inter-
stellar particles are surprisingly
diverse. Some are fluffy like
snowakes.
Afew particles splatted a little when
they hit the collection panels because
of their speed and the fact that some
ended up hitting the aluminum foils
between the softer aerogel tiles meant
to capture the grains. In fact, one par-
ticle believed to be following the ow
of interstellar wind was vaporized
because it was going so fast an esti-
mated 10 miles per second.

San Mateo County Supervisor Dave Pine
will pay an $800 fine by the Fair Political
Practices Commission to settle claims he
did not file two pre-election campaign
finance statements in a timely manner.
The commission will vote Aug. 21 as
part of its consent calendar to accept Pines
stipulation that he did violate Californias
Political Reform Act.
The four violations arose during Pines
campaign for his first full term after serv-
ing the remainder of a term he won in a spe-
cial election. He failed to file statements
with the county Elections Office for the
period Jan. 1, 2012, through May 19,
2012, by the March 22, 2012, and May 24,
2012, deadlines. He also failed to file two
semi-annual campaign statements for the
period July 1, 2011, through June 30,
2012, which were due Jan. 31, 2012, and
July 31, 2012.
Pines committee filed
the statements after
being notified of a pend-
ing Franchise Tax Board
audit, according to the
FPPC stipulation.
The statements are dis-
closures of a committee
or candidates fundrais-
ing and expenditures.
Pine said the filings should have been
made on time and missing them was an
oversight.
I will not miss a filing deadline in the
future, he wrote in an email to the Daily
Journal.
Pine represents District One which
includes Burlingame, Hillsborough,
Millbrae, San Bruno and South San
Francisco east of El Camino Real. He
joined the board in May 2011 and was re-
elected in June 2012. His current term
expires in January 2017.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SACRAMENTO The $7.5 billion water
package brokered by Gov. Jerry Brown and
legislative leaders signals a rare bipartisan
agreement on a thorny, politically divisive
issue that has bedeviled California governors
and lawmakers for decades.
To get sign-off from the dizzying array of
interests, Brown hunkered down with law-
makers from both parties behind closed doors
for the past few weeks, eventually giving
Republicans more of the funding for reser-
voirs and water storage they have long
sought.
The states crippling drought provided the
impetus to overcome longstanding divisions
and put a proposal before voters in November
that balances regional politics with the
states overall water needs. It is also a big win
for Brown as he campaigns for re-election.
The drought hits home in literally almost
every district in California, said Bill
Whalen, a research fellow at the Hoover
Institution at Stanford University, creating
urgency for a deal this year.
It also gives all parties a win to take home
as they campaign for
ofce this November.
Imagine your lawmaker
coming home from
Sacramento, he said.
Your voters know that
theres a drought, and they
ask, What are you doing
about it in Sacramento?
And you just shrug your
shoulders. How inept
would you look?
Brown has repeatedly bragged this year that
unlike politically gridlocked Washington,
D.C., California politicians are tackling seri-
ous problems and forging compromises.
Wednesdays nearly unanimous vote gave him
the proof.
With Democrats in control of both houses
of the Legislature, political compromise with
Republicans is rarely required. Wednesdays
vote gave the minority party a rare shot at rel-
evance, but Brown said he wanted their sup-
port anyway, to help sell the plan to voters.
The pitch now is youve got a unied
front, said Assembly Speaker Toni Atkins,
D-San Diego. You got Northern, Central,
South. You got Republicans. You got
Democrats ... and you got the governor.

Bill would add parent box to birth certificates
SACRAMENTO The state Senate approved legislation
Thursday that would make California the latest state to mod-
ify birth certicates to accommodate same-sex couples who
become parents, but not before generating criticism from a
Republican lawmaker.
Under the bill, birth certicates in California will have
three check boxes for parents starting in January 2016:
mother, father and parent. Republican Sen. Jim Nielsen
voted against it, saying the change diminishes the tradi-
tional denition of parents.
It removes the dignity of the term husband and wife,
mother and father, said Nielsen, who represents a largely
agricultural region in Northern California. No one can
argue this bill does not diminish the signicance of those
terms in American society. I urge a no vote. Stand up for
mother; stand up for father.
In response, Democratic Sen. Mark Leno of San Francisco
said there is nothing offensive in the legislation and that it
seeks to treat all couples equally by including all three terms
as check-off boxes.
There is no disrespect in using gender-neutral terms ... so
everyone feels included, he said. I support mothers and
fathers; we can do both.
AB1951 by state Assemblyman Jimmy Gomez, D-Los
Angeles, passed on a 26-4 vote. It will return to the
Assembly for a nal vote on technical amendments before
going to the governor.
Bill conforms sentencing for use of cocaine, crack
SACRAMENTO Legislation intended to address racial
disparities in sentencing for cocaine offenses is close to
passing the Legislature.
The Assembly on Thursday approved SB1010 on a 49-14
vote, returning it to the Senate for a nal vote on amend-
ments.
The current punishment for possession for sale of powder
cocaine is two to four years, while the same offense for
crack cocaine is punishable by three to ve years. Bill sup-
porters say white drug users tend to snort cocaine while
black and Latino users tend to smoke crack.
The bill would make both punishable by two to four years,
ending what Assemblyman Steven Bradford of Gardena calls
blatant racism.
Officials weighing fix for Hetch Hetchy tunnel
SAN FRANCISCO San Francisco is hiring outside con-
sultants to help it decide whether it should repair or entirely
replace an 89-year-old tunnel that is a vital part of the Hetch
Hetchy water system supplying 2.6 million Bay Area
homes and businesses.
The 19-mile-long Mountain Tunnel was left out of the San
Francisco Public Utilities Commissions decade-long, $4.6
billion water-system overhaul. But San Francisco Public
Utilities Commission assistant general manager Steve
Ritchie said that more delay would increase the chances of a
catastrophic collapse of the tunnel, cutting water ow for
the region by 25 percent.

SAN DIEGO California home
sales declined in July compared to the
same time last year as buyers struggled
to nd something they could afford in
the tight market, a research rm said
Thursday.
Statewide 39,608 new and resale
houses and condos sold in July an
8.7 percent drop from July 2013,
CoreLogic DataQuick said.
The rate of rising year-over-year
prices also is no longer at double-digit
rates like last summer.
The more spectacular annual price
gains of a year ago over 20 percent
seem far back in the rearview mirror
now, said CoreLogic DataQuick ana-
lyst Andrew LePage. Looking ahead,
such double-digit price jumps seem
unlikely unless theres a burst of pent-
up demand, perhaps triggered by more
robust income growth, a loosening of
mortgage credit or a signicant move
in interest rates.
The sharpest drop in sales was in
Southern California.
About 20,000 new and resale hous-
es and condos sold last month in the
six-county Southern California
region, marking a 12.4 percent
decline from July 2013.
Atotal of about 8,474 new and resale
houses and condos sold last month In
the nine-county San Francisco Bay
Area. Thats down 9.3 percent from
July 2013 when 9,339 homes sold.
The numbers were based on transac-
tions that closed in escrow and were
reported by county recorder ofces.
Cash deals have also fallen, indicat-
ing that fewer investors are snapping
up bargains.
The median price for homes
statewide in July was $392,000, an 8
percent increase from the same time a
year ago, CoreLogic DataQuick said.

SAN FRANCISCO Astatewide sur-
vey released Thursday ranks Fresno
and other Central Valley communities
as the most disadvantaged areas in
California when it comes to chal-
lenges ranging from polluted water to
joblessness.
The ranking by the California
Environmental Protection Agency ear-
marks those and other areas hardest-hit
by environmental, economic and
health problems for a greater share of
the more than $800 million in funds
from the states cap-and-trade pro-
gram. The program penalizes compa-
nies and other entities that emit the
most climate-changing carbon.
The agency assessed 19 criteria such
as percentage of people with asthma,
quality of drinking water and air,
prevalence of pesticide contamina-
tion, and nearness to toxic-waste
cleanup sites.
Fresno neighborhoods dominated
the ranking, with Bakersfield, Los
Angeles El Monte, San Bernardino and
Ontario also making the top 20.
When people think of pollution
and other environmental and economic
challenges, they often think of inner-
city neighborhoods, said Sam
Delson, a spokesman for the state
environmental agency. What our data
has shown is that these challenges are
not limited to urban neighborhoods.
The states cap-and-trade program
mandates that 25 percent of its pro-
ceeds go to the states most-disadvan-
taged communities.

PM al-Maliki
relinquishing
post to rival
By Sameer N. Yacoub
and Qassim Abdul-Zahra
BAGHDAD Embattled Iraqi Prime
Minister Nouri al-Maliki announced late
Thursday that he was relinquishing his post
to his nominated replace-
ment, ending a political
deadlock that has plunged
the country into uncer-
tainty as it ghts a Sunni
militant insurgency.
Standing alongside
senior members of his
party, including rival
Haider al-Abadi, al-
Maliki said he was step-
ping aside in favor of his brother, in order
to facilitate the political process and gov-
ernment formation.
Al-Maliki had been struggling for weeks
to stay on for a third four-year term as prime
minister amid an attempt by opponents to
push him out, accusing him of monopoliz-
ing power and pursuing a ercely pro-Shiite
agenda that has alienated the Sunni minori-
t y. The United States, the U.N. and a broad
array of political factions in Iraq had backed
al-Abadi, saying only a new leader could
unify a country under siege from Sunni
extremists of the Islamic State group that
have captured large swathes of Iraqi territo-
ry.
Al-Maliki said his decision to throw his
support behind al-Abadi reected a desire to
safeguard the high interests of the coun-
try, adding that he would not be the cause of
any bloodshed. My position is your trust in
me, and no position is higher than your
trust, he declared in a televised address.
Al-Malikis refusal to give up his position
after eight years in power had provoked a
political crisis that escalated this week in
Baghdad, where armed guards patrolled most
major bridges, intersections and roadways.
Study blames humans
for most of melting glaciers
WASHINGTON More than two-thirds of
the recent rapid melting of the worlds gla-
ciers can be blamed on humans, a new study
nds.
Scientists looking at glacier melt since
1851 didnt see a human ngerprint until
about the middle of the 20th century. Even
then only one-quarter of the warming wasnt
from natural causes.
But since 1991, about 69 percent of the
rapidly increasing melt was man-made, said
Ben Marzeion, a climate scientist at the
University of Innsbruck in Austria.
Glaciers are really shrinking rapidly
now, he said. I think its fair to say most of
it is man-made.
Scientists fault global warming from the
burning of coal, oil and gas as well as
changes in land use near glaciers and soot
pollution. Glaciers in Alaska and the Alps in
general have more human-caused melting
than the global average, Marzeion said.
The study is published Thursday in the
journal Science. The research is the rst to
calculate just how much of the glacial melt-
ing can be attributed to people and the jump
from about a quarter to roughly 70 percent of
total glacier mass loss is signicant and con-
cerning, said University of Alaska
Fairbanks geophysicist Regine Hock, who
wasnt part of the study.
Sentencing panel to
weigh economic crime penalties
WASHINGTON The federal panel that
sets sentencing policy announced Thursday
that it plans in the coming year to consider
changes to sentencing guidelines for some
white-collar crimes.
The U.S. Sentencing Commission, which
earlier this year reduced guideline ranges for
drug crimes, unanimously approved its latest
set of priorities. The top priority will be con-
tinuing to work with Congress on reducing
the scope and severity of mandatory mini-
mum penalties, but another goal will be eval-
uating the fairness of sentences for econom-
ic crimes like fraud, the commission said.
The panel had been reviewing data for sev-
eral years, but plans to hear more from
judges, victims and others to decide whether
there are ways the economic crime guidelines
could work better, the commissions chair-
woman, Patti Saris, a federal judge in
Massachusetts, said in a statement.

WASHINGTON President Barack
Obama on Thursday promised to expand
U.S. humanitarian relief to Iraqis threatened
by the advancing army of the Islamic State
militants. He took credit for alleviating the
genocide threat to thousands trapped on a
mountaintop but said the situation remains
dire throughout the country.
Obama also said U.S. airstrikes would
continue to protect Americans and U.S.
facilities in Iraq, and he said Washington
has increased its delivery of military assis-
tance to Iraqi and Kurdish forces ghting the
Islamic State.
But he gave no indication he intends to
shift from the limited, defensive military
campaign he announced last week to one
designed to use American might to push
back and eventually defeat an emboldened
Islamic State army, which has made rapid
and broad advances across western and
northern Iraq since June.
Were going to be
working with our interna-
tional partners to provide
humanitarian assistance
to those who are suffering
in northern Iraq wherever
we have capabilities and
we can carry out effective
missions like the one we
carried out on Mount
Sinjar without commit-
ting combat troops on the ground, Obama
said in a statement.
His remarks highlighted the gap between
the administrations increasingly dire
assessment of the threat posed by the
Islamic State group and the limited air cam-
paign it has so far undertaken, which mili-
tary ofcials acknowledge has had only a
temporary, local effect and is not likely to
blunt the groups momentum or ambitions.
On Thursday, some of the most senior
U.S. intelligence experts on terrorism
briefed reporters in detail on the Islamic
State group.

WASHINGTON ADemocratic
congressman plans to introduce a
bill to restrict a Defense
Department program that provides
machine guns and other surplus
military equipment for free to
local law enforcement agencies
across the country.
Rep. Hank Johnson, D-Ga., said
Thursday that the death of an
unarmed teenager who was shot by
a police ofcer in a St. Louis sub-
urb highlights the need for the leg-
islation, which has been in the
works for months. The bill comes
as members of Congress have
called for the Justice Department
to investigate the shooting of a
black teen by a police ofcer in
Ferguson, Mo.
Police in riot gear and military
garb have clashed nightly with
protesters since Aug. 9 shooting
of Michael Brown and at times
have trained weapons on them
from armored trucks.
A spokesman for the Defense
Logistics Agency, the govern-
ments combat logistics support
agency, said the Ferguson Police
Department has been part of the
surplus equipment program. It
received two tactical vehicles
both Humvees as well as a gen-
erator and a trailer and may have
received other equipment, DLA
spokesman Joe Yoswa said.
Johnson said city streets should
be a place for businesses and fami-
lies, not tanks and M16s. He
said a Pentagon program that
transfers surplus military equip-
ment to state and local law
enforcement has led to police
agencies resembling paramilitary
forces.
Congressman wants to curb
military surplus program
By Alexander Roslyakov
KAMENSK-SHAKHTINSKY,
Russia Raising the stakes in
Ukraines conict, a Russian aid
convoy of more than 200 trucks
pushed up to the border on
Thursday but then stopped,
provocatively poised to cross into
rebel-held territory.
The Ukrainian government
threatened to use all means avail-
able to block the convoy if the
Red Cross was not allowed to
inspect the cargo. Such an inspec-
tion would ease concerns that
Russia could use the aid shipment
as cover for a military incursion in
support of the separatists, who
have come under growing pressure
from government troops.
The United States has warned
Russia that it needs to secure
Ukraines permission for the con-
voy to enter.
Weve made that very clear to
the Russians that they should not
move these trucks in, without tak-
ing all of the steps the Ukrainian
government has outlined, U.S.
State Department spokeswoman
Marie Harf said Thursday.
Amid the tensions surrounding
the convoy, European
Commission chief Jose Manuel
Barroso called Russian and
Ukrainian leaders to arrange three-
way consultations on ways to de-
escalate the crisis. Barrosos ofce
said that details will be worked out
through diplomatic channels.
Ukraine announced it was organ-
izing its own aid shipment to the
war-wracked separatist region of
Luhansk.
Complicating the dispute over
the dueling missions, Ukraine said
Thursday it has gained control
over a key town near Luhansk city,
thereby giving it the means to
block the presumed route that the
Russian convoy would take to the
city.
The town, Novosvitlivka, lies
about 40 kilometers (25 miles)
from the border, so if the Russian
trucks did enter the country, they
potentially could unload some-
where other than city itself.
The Russian convoy set out
Thursday morning from a military
depot in the southern Russian city
of Voronezh where it had been
parked since late Tuesday. Moscow
says the convoy has 262 vehicles,
including about 200 trucks carry-
ing aid.

Well, that didnt last long.
After four quarters of meager
growth, the fragile economic
recovery in the 18-country euro-
zone creaked to a halt in the sec-
ond quarter.
Growth was zero. After only
0.2 percent in the rst quarter.
Now who will get out and push?
The European Central Bank, with
a further monetary stimulus? Or
governments in France and Italy,
which have dragged their heels in
making their economies more
business-friendly?
Either or both could help.
Especially if the Ukraine crisis
mushrooms with a Russian inva-
sion that would scare off business
investment even more and
extend one bad quarter into an
outright recession.
Few economists think the
eurozone will slip back into its
third recession in six years.
Most expect only a slow recov-
ery as Europe continues to work
down its debts and thats not
ideal for a global economy thats
a long way short of ring on all
cylinders.
In short, the eurozone remains
a potential drag on the rest of the
world.
I dont think todays numbers
make that picture any worse,
said Tom Rogers, senior econom-
ic adviser to the EY eurozone
forecast. Its still going to be a
slow recovery for the eurozone
and it will be a slow recovery for
eurozone markets for imports
from the rest of the world.

WASHINGTON More people
applied for U.S. unemployment bene-
ts last week, although jobless claims
continue to be close to pre-recession
levels.
Weekly applications for unemploy-
ment aid climbed 21,000 to a seasonal-
ly adjusted 311,000, the Labor
Department said Thursday. The prior
weeks was revised up slightly to
290,000.
The four-week average, a less
volatile measure, rose 2,000 to
295,750. That continues to be close to
averages that predate the beginning of
the Great Recession in late 2007.
Stepping back from the weekly
volatility, said Jennifer Lee, senior
economist at BMO Capital Markets,
the trend is still very encouraging and
points to continued job growth.
Applications are a proxy for layoffs.
When fewer employers shed workers, it
suggests potentially rising incomes,
increased hiring activity and confi-
dence that the economy is improving.
Employers are searching for more
workers.
In June, they advertised the most
monthly job openings in more than 13
years, the government reported
Tuesday. Employers posted 4.67 mil-
lion jobs that month, up 2.1 percent
from Mays total of 4.58 million,
according to the Labor Department.
The number of advertised openings was
the highest since February 2001, sug-
gesting that hiring should continue to
be solid in the coming months.
Still, the openings report showed
that the hiring rate has not risen over
the past year as quickly as the number
of positions being advertised.
Job openings have increased 17.6
percent during the past 12 months,
while hiring has risen 9.3 percent dur-
ing the same period.
Yet the monthly net job gains have
been solid in the past six months.
Employers added 209,000 jobs in
July, the sixth straight month of job
gains above 200,000. The economy
has now produced an average 244,000
jobs a month since February.
The recent spurt of hiring has
encouraged more people to start look-
ing for work, causing the unemploy-
ment rate to inch up to 6.2 percent
from 6.1 percent. The government
only counts people searching for jobs
as unemployed.
Hiring has yet to boost wages by
much. Wage growth has slightly out-
paced inflation since the recession
ended more than ve years ago.
But the greater the number of people
with jobs, the greater the total number
of paychecks, which could drive con-
sumer spending and growth.

CSM parking blues
Editor,
Sigh. So it begins again. No room
for students. College of San Mateo stu-
dents received emails this week saying
there will be no parking in the huge
lots on the north end of campus, nor
can CSM students park in lots belong-
ing to private businesses, i.e.
SolarCity and GoPro. Taxpayers have
spent millions of bond dollars (suppos-
edly) to support students, not to pro-
vide corporate parking. Cant nd a
place to park? Too bad. Students will
either be ticketed or towed.
And the college district is asking for
another one-third of a billion dollars to
support students? Please.

The issue of private property
Editor,
Aneighbors child walks through an
open gate and drowns in your pool. Do
you get sued? You bet. Achild walks
through an open gate onto private
property at Martins beach and gets
injured or drowns. Does the owner get
sued? Maybe, but he shouldnt have to
go to court because the government
forced him to keep the gate open.
I havent seen anything in state Sen.
Jerry Hills comments where the gov-
ernment will indemnify the owner
against any lawsuit stemming from an
injury or will reimburse the owner from
any damage done to the property by a
member of the public. If he felt that
public access was so important, per-
haps he should have used taxpayers
money to buy the beach when it was for
sale.
The Legislature has certainly wasted
more money than this in the past on
less important ventures. Private proper-
ty is just that its private. It is up to
the owner to grant access. The idea that
the current owner has to provide access
because previous owners did so borders
on the ludicrous. The current owner
shouldnt be penalized because he is
rich and previous owners generously
allowed others to cross their land.
If we do not want the government
telling us that we have to leave the gate
to our backyard open to allow the pub-
lic to enjoy our patio and pool then we
should not require that of others, regard-
less of the history of the property.

Honey bees cant wait
Editor,
In honor of Honey Bee Day on Aug.
16, we should honor pollinators criti-
cal to our food system by urging
President Obama and his agencies to
create the best protections possible for
the nations bees.
In the next few months, a joint task
force led by Obamas EPAand USDA
will release a plan of action for address-
ing bee declines. And one of the most
critical steps they can take is to restrict
the use of pesticides called neonicoti-
noids, a driving force in bee declines.
Bayer, Syngenta, Monsanto and the
rest of the pesticide industry will con-
tinue to try and confuse the science and
the discussion about what needs to be
done, but the reality is that we cant
afford to wait around while these pesti-
cides further contaminate our air, water
and soil and contribute to an untenable
burden for bees, beekeepers and our
agricultural economy.

Orange County Register
T
wo new reports were out this
week that, taken together,
provide a pretty good picture
of how the U.S. labor force has fared
since the economic recovery began in
June 2009.
On Monday, the U.S. Conference of
Mayors released a report, prepared by
IHS Global Insight, noting that U.S.
payroll employment reached an all-
time high this spring, nally surpass-
ing the prerecession peak of 138.4
million jobs, reached in the rst quar-
ter of 2008.
Then, the Labor Department report-
ed Tuesday that there were 4.7 million
job openings on the last business day
in June, not only a slight uptick from
May, but also the highest number of
openings in 13 years.
If the reports stopped there, it
would be cause for celebration, from
Orange County, California, to Orange
County, Florida. But, as a wise man
famously advised, all that glitters is
not gold.
Indeed, the Conference of Mayors
report laments that jobs gained during
the economic recovery pay an average
23 percent less than jobs lost during
the so-called Great Recession.
The annual wage was $61,637 in
sectors where jobs were lost in the
economic downturn, which began in
December 2007, while the average
wage of new jobs gained through the
second quarter of this year was only
$47,171. This wage gap, said the
report, represents $93 billion in lost
wages.
As to the Labor Departments
monthly report on Job Openings and
Labor Turnover known as JOLTS
it has been held out by Federal
Reserve chief Janet Yellen as an
important barometer of the state of
the nations job market.
Continued strength in the next sev-
eral JOLTS reports could portend a
move by the Fed to ratchet up short-
term interest rates, which would be
most welcomed by ination hawks,
who complain that the nations cen-
tral bank has kept short-term rates
too low for too long.
But Ms. Yellen and the Feds board
of governors are not strictly looking
at job openings. They also are look-
ing at the number of workers who vol-
untarily quit jobs and the number of
workers hired.
Indeed, when workers voluntarily
leave their employers, it usually
means they have found better usu-
ally higher-paying jobs. Thats a
sign of a dynamic labor market.
Similarly, when that nations
employers are competing with each
other to hire workers to ll job open-
ings, its a sign of robust economic
growth.
In June, some 2.53 million workers
quit a job, the most since June 2008.
Meanwhile, some 4.8 million
Americans were hired in June.
Regrettably, that quit rate was a
mere 1.8 percent in June, which is
trending somewhat upward, but
remains at a historically low level.
And, while monthly hires are trending
in the right direction, they have yet
to return to prerecession levels.
So, American workers are to be for-
given if they are not especially bull-
ish about the nations labor market.
After ve years of putative economic
recovery, they almost certainly
expected more.
More jobs available, but for less pay
This crisis did
not go to waste
N
ever let a good crisis go to waste was British
Prime Minister Winston Churchills famous
adage adopted by Rahm Emanuel when dis-
cussing the financial crisis that met the Obama White
House when he was chief of staff.
Emanuels theory was that a crisis can solve long-
standing issues and allow the gathering of ideas so
everyone gets a little something out of a larger deal.
And that is the case with the states most recent water
bond measure passed by both houses of the California
Legislature and signed by the governor Wednesday
night.
The legislation places a $7.5 billion water plan
before voters in November and replaces an existing
$11.1 billion bond
previously
approved by the
Legislature that was
considered too cost-
ly and filled with
pork.
Gov. Jerry Brown,
the ultimate Zen
politician, stripped
down his proposal
last week to about
$6 billion sans the
water storage com-
ponent touted by
Republican leader-
ship. His ostensible
rationale is that a
lower amount would
be more fiscally
prudent. However,
adding the water storage component to gain Republican
votes would add money and he could place the blame for
the escalating cost squarely on the traditionally fiscal-
ly conservative GOP, thus negating the argument that
the plan is too costly when presented to voters.
And the end result is that the cost is contained and
projects will have to compete for the limited revenue,
with the rationale that the best projects will win out.
So its survival of the fittest another concept that
will surely limit debate.
The end package does indeed have something for
everyone. It invests in the states water infrastructure
and builds reservoirs. It cleans up groundwater and will
promote new technology that will save water. It only
had two no votes in the Assembly and unanimously
passed the state Senate. Even legislation pronouncing
that kittens are cute wouldnt get that kind of support.
And so it goes onto the ballot as Proposition 1, with
the full support of the governor, the Legislature and all
the special interests corralled in Sacramento for much
of this week hammering out a deal.
The essence of this deal is that we are in a drought cri-
sis and something needs to be done. If Sacramento can-
not agree on at least some initial steps to ensure our
water quality and supply into the future, then there is
not much point in having elected officials spend so
much time in the Capitol right? The writing was on the
wall, and after several stops and starts for such a water
bond proposal, it was evident this was the time for put-
ting everything on the table and eliminating special
projects to keep costs down.
The statewide water shortage has brought up all sorts
of unique ideas such as new regulations for well water
on which so many farmers depend and reignited the
long-standing fight between Northern California and
Southern California over which way the water flows and
which is more important, the farming industry or the
fishing industry. It was starting to get ugly and, if
Sacramento hadnt acted, we were to be faced with a
water bond that was probably more expensive than it
needed to be and less popular than what was passed this
week.
We have now a scaled-back version of a bond with
something for everyone to like and something for
everyone not to like. But there is more in it to like and
it is a plan that shows our representatives in
Sacramento do know we must plan well and come
together for the future of our state. Churchill would be
proud. Maybe even Emanuel too.

NEWYORK Better corporate earn-
ings helped nudge the stock market up
on Thursday in one of the quietest ses-
sions this year.
Health-care companies led the major
indexes to slight gains, while
Berkshire Hathaway crossed another
milestone, trading above $200,000 a
share for the rst time.
With many who work in the markets
on vacation, trading volume on the New
York Stock Exchange thinned out: just
2.6 billion shares on Thursday. An
average day this year is nearly 1 billion
higher.
Stronger prots for Perrigo, a drug-
maker, drove its stock up 7 percent, the
biggest gain in the Standard & Poors
500 index. Perrigo jumped $10.14 to
end at $149.29. Another drugmaker,
Merck, gained 93 cents, or 2 percent,
to $58.78 following news that it won
federal approval for a new sleeping
pill.
The S&P500 climbed up 8.46 points,
or 0.4 percent, to close at 1,955.18.
Health care companies led nine of the
10 industry groups in the S&P 500 up.
The Dow Jones industrial average
rose 61.78 points, or 0.4 percent, to
16,713.58 while the Nasdaq compos-
ite climbed 18.88 points, or 0.4 per-
cent, to 4,453.00.
Markets often slip into a summertime
lull in August. Trading desks remain
short-staffed until people return from
vacation after the Labor Day holiday.
Without any major developments, trad-
ing volume usually dries up and stock
indexes turn sleepy, as if stuck in their
beach chairs.
The S&P 500 is still hovering near
record highs, leading some analysts to
fret that the market looks too expen-
sive. Lawrence Creatura, a fund manager
at Federated Investors, argued that the
solid second-quarter earnings season,
which is nearly wrapped up, should put
investors worries about high prices to
rest.
The S&P 500, for instance, has
gained nearly 6 percent this year.
Thats an interesting number: 6 per-
cent just happens to be the average
earnings growth rate over the very long
term, he said.
In Thursday trading, the Class A
shares of Warren Buffetts Berkshire
Hathaway conglomerate crossed the
$200,000 mark, making the highest-
priced U.S. stock even more expensive.
Buffett has never split Berkshires A
shares to make them cheaper, although
Berkshire created more affordable
Class B shares, which closed
Thursday at $135.30 Berkshires
Class Ashares rose $3,241, or 2 per-
cent, to end at $202,850.
Kohls, a department-store chain,
turned in quarterly prots that were
slightly better than analysts expecta-
tions. Sales slipped but the company
cut costs. Kohls surged $1.80, or 3 per-
cent, to $56.91.
After the market closed Wednesday,
Cisco Systems reported falling quarter-
ly sales and prots. The technology
company also announced plans to lay
off 6,000 workers, roughly 8 percent of
its workforce. Ciscos stock dropped 66
cents, or 3 percent, to $24.54.
In Europe, more reports showed the
regions economic recovery has stalled.
Germanys economy shrank 0.2 per-
cent from April to June, while the
French economy stagnated. But both
Frances CAC 40 and Germanys DAX
closed with gains of 0.3 percent.
Britains FTSE 100 rose 0.4 percent.
Investors appear to be betting that
the continued raft of disappointing eco-
nomic data could compel the European
Central Bank to take further steps to
help try and boost economic activity
before the end of the year, said Michael
Hewson, chief market analyst at CMC
Markets.
In the market for U.S. government
bonds, the yield on the 10-year
Treasury note fell to 2.40 percent.
Earlier, it touched 2.38 percent, its low-
est level this year.

SACRAMENTO Abill that gener-
ated spirited debate over the leverage
corporations such as McDonalds and
Subway can hold over their franchise
owners narrowly passed the Assembly
on Thursday.
SB610 would make it harder for cor-
porations to cancel franchise agree-
ments and would add requirements that
must be met when a franchisees busi-
ness is sold. The debate spilling across
party lines is fueled by intense lobby-
ing from two sides: unions teaming up
with franchisees, and business groups
that say restricting corporate control
could lead to lower food standards, dirty
bathrooms and closed stores.
The legislation strikes at the balance
of power between franchisees that prof-
it from the reputation of major brands
that in turn mandate how businesses are
operated. It heads to the Senate after
passing on a 41-27 vote, the minimum
needed.
The bill authored by Sen. Hannah-
Beth Jackson, D-Santa Barbara, was
inspired by stories of small-business
owners who say they had their liveli-
hoods taken away.
Franchise agreements are so one-
sided, Kathryn Carter, who runs a
McDonalds restaurant in Daly City,
said in a statement. Franchisees have
virtually no say in the businesses
weve risked our life savings and dedi-
cated years of our lives to build.
The bill creates a higher standard for
canceling a franchise agreement early,
which supporters say gives them the
same rights during contract disputes as
other businesses in California. At least
eight other states, including
Connecticut and Nebraska, have a sim-
ilar standard in place, according to
Jacksons ofce.
Other provisions would protect fran-
chisees from having their business
sold or transferred with little notice.
Opponents of the bill say the state
shouldnt meddle in private contracts,
arguing that the existing system works
to protect internationally recognized
brands from rogue business owners.
They go into that eld as a fran-
chisee with their eyes open, said
Assemblyman Donald Wagner, R-
Irvine. We are not talking here about
contracts that are convoluted and writ-
ten in lots of legalese that they cant
understand.
The International Franchise
Association says it will continue its
fight against the bill, which has
included Web videos saying the bill
undermines Californias economic
recovery.

Coca-Cola bets on
energy drinks with Monster stake
ATLANTA Coca-Cola is buying a 16.7 percent stake
in Monster Beverage for $2.15 billion, with the worlds
biggest soda maker hoping to benet from the surging
popularity of energy drinks.
The Atlanta-based company said Thursday it will also
place two directors on Monsters board as part of the
deal.
Analysts had suggested for some time that Coca-Cola
might acquire Monster at a time when its agship soda
business is agging in developed markets such as the
United States.

David Tufo, right, was hired by Menlo College head coach Jake McKinley to be his No. 1
assistant for the 2014-15 season. Tufo, a 2005 Burlingame graduate, got into the coaching
ranks soon after his playing days ended.This is his second stint at Menlo, having served as an
assistant from 2011 to 2013.
By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
David Tufo, a 2005 Burlingame graduate,
was the starting second baseman for the
2004 Burlingame baseball Central Coast
Section championship team. Like a lot of
players from that years Panthers squad,
Tufo went on to play college baseball, nd-
ing a spot at Willamette University in
Salem, Oregon, graduating in 2009.
When Tufo was done playing, however, he
wasnt nished with the game. While many
players will simply hang up their spikes,
Tufo kept his and has embarked on a journey
he hopes will lead to a
college head coaching
position.
Ideally, (I would be
running a program) in the
next three to ve years,
said Tufo, who will turn
28 in December.
Im ready to keep put-
ting in the hours.
It was Tufos dedication
and drive at being the best coach he can be
that drew Menlo College manager Jake
McKinley to him. McKinley hired Tufo to be
his No. 1 assistant with Menlo this coming
season. McKinley, who wrapped up his rst
season this past spring, led the Oaks to a
record of 29-28 overall, 13-15 in CalPac
Conference play.
David Tufo is an exceptional hire for us,
McKinley said in a press release. Not only
is he very familiar with Menlo, he is a great
ineld guy who has a great knowledge base
of offensive production. I think he is one of
the top up-and-coming coaches in college
baseball.
McKinley also promoted second-year
assistant Jason Ochart to the role of hitting
coach for the Oaks during the 2014-15 year.
This will be Tufos second go-around with
the Menlo baseball program. He was an
assistant for three seasons, 2011 to 2013,
before taking a position with Santa Clara

Win or lose, youngsters from Chicago will
leave a lasting impression on the Little League
World Series.
The Jackie Robinson West team is com-
prised of all African-American players. On
Thursday, their league will make its rst
appearance in 31 years in South Williamsport,
Pennsylvania the latest indicator that base-
ball is making small strides in an effort to lure
young African-Americans back to the game.
The number of African-Americans in the
major leagues has dwindled steadily since the
mid-1980s, when they comprised about 19
percent of rosters; the number stood at 8.1 per-
cent on opening day this year.
Jackie Robinson West, representing the
Great Lakes, got off to a good start. It beat
Northwest champion Lynnwood Pacic 12-2
in its rst game Thursday.
Still, No one is ready to proclaim the sport is
back in talent-rich inner city neighborhoods
because of Jackie Robinson Wests success.
However, programs such as the Little League
Urban Initiative, Major League Baseballs RBI
(Reviving Baseball In Inner Cities) and Urban
Youth Academy clearly are making a difference.
David James, senior director of MLBs RBI
program is familiar with the teams history and
is delighted to see it back on Little Leagues
biggest stage.
All of us at MLB is talking about that
team, said James, a native of Williamsport
and a former head of the Little League Urban
Initiative. Its really good for the game.
The RBI program has grown over the years
and now has a presence in 200 cities with
about 230,000 participants.
Jackie Robinson West, which bears the
name of the rst black player in the major
leagues, has a storied history. Joseph Haley
founded the league thats grown to include 28
teams. Haleys son, Bill, runs the program and
it is one of the Urban Initiative success stories.
Its the rst all-black team from Chicago to

BALTIMORE Rob Manfred was elected
baseballs 10th commissioner Thursday and
will succeed Bud Selig in January.
Alabor lawyer who has worked for Major
League Baseball since 1998, Manfred beat
out Boston Red Sox Chairman Tom Werner
in the rst contested vote for a new commis-
sioner in 46 years. The third candidate,
MLB Executive Vice President of Business
Tim Brosnan, dropped out just before the
start of voting.
I am tremendously honored by the con-
dence owners showed in me today, Manfred
said. I have very big shoes to ll.
The 55-year-old Manfred, who grew up in
Rome, New York about an hours drive
from the Hall of Fame in Cooperstown
must address issues that include decreased
interest in baseball among younger people
and longer games. He has served as MLBs
chief operating ofcer for the past year.
There is no doubt in my mind he has the
temperament, the training, the experience,
Selig said.
Selig turned 80 last month and has ruled
baseball since September
1992, when he was
among the owners who
forced Commissioner Fay
Vincents resignation. He
said he intends to retire in
January.
Manfred fell one vote
shy of the 23 out of 30
owners needed in the rst
ballot earlier Thursday.
On the second ballot, he
won unanimously, sever-
al owners conrmed.
Each candidate spoke to
owners for about an hour
Wednesday and met in
sessions Thursday morn-
ing with groups of 10
teams.
Werner was supported
by Chicago White Sox
owner Jerry Reinsdorf and Los Angeles
Angels owner Arte Moreno. Other teams
have said Reinsdorf wanted a commissioner
who would take a harsher stance in labor
negotiations.

OAKLAND Two days of practice in
front of boisterous Raiders supporters gave
Oaklands newcomers a taste of the passion
of the fan base.
They will get to see more of that Friday
night when the Raiders play their rst home
exhibition game of the season against the
Detroit Lions.
The atmosphere in the Coliseum doesnt
gure to be quite as intense as it was in
Oxnard this week when fans were packed
around the two practice elds to watch the
Raiders work with the Dallas Cowboys.
The Raiders fans greatly outnumbered
Dallas supporters and provided the sound-
track for the practice with loud cheers and
derogatory chants toward the Cowboys. One
fan even got involved in a brawl, swinging
a helmet at a Cowboys defender.
These are some of the best fans I have
ever laid my eyes on, new defensive tackle
Antonio Smith said. They get down with
you.
One Raiders newcomer needs little intro-
duction to the teams nation of supporters.
Running back Maurice Jones-Drew is a
longtime Raiders fan who grew up in the
Bay Area and went to games at the Coliseum
as a child.
Jones-Drew got hurt the past two years as
a visitor in Oakland but is looking forward
to his rst home game in front of his home-
town fans.
Its going to be exciting to have every-
one there, people that I grew up with that are
Raider fans, season-ticket holders, he said.
Its going to be exciting. I just want to go
out there, try and play a perfect game, strive
to be perfect, and well see how it goes.
The Raiders were far from perfect in their
exhibition opener, a 10-6 loss at
Minnesota. There were 13 penalties, numer-
ous dropped passes, missed tackles and
blown coverages as the rst-team offense
led by new quarterback Matt Schaub generat-
ed just one rst down on three drives and the
starting defense struggled to get off the
eld.
Coach Dennis Allen said he expects to see
a far different team Friday following two
intense practices against the Cowboys.
Im hoping to see improvement, Allen
said. Weve got to clean up the penalties.

University of Texas hires ex-QB
Vince Young for community relations
AUSTIN, Texas Former Texas quarterback Vince Young
has been hired by the school for community relations and
fundraising.
UT spokeswoman Leslie Blair said Thursday that Young
will earn $100,000 annually.
Young led the Longhorns to the 2005 national champi-
onship before turning pro. He hasnt played in an NFL reg-
ular-season NFL game since 2011.
Young spent ve seasons with Tennessee. He started three
games for the Eagles in 2011. He spent part of two presea-
sons with Buffalo and Green Bay. Young was signed May 1
by Cleveland, but released after the Browns drafted Texas
A&Ms Johnny Manziel, who as a freshman won the
Heisman Trophy.
Young, who in 2013 earned a bachelors degree from UTi n
applied learning and development, will work in programs
supporting rst-generation college students and students
from low-income backgrounds.
Browns starting Hoyer,
not Manziel versus Redskins
CLEVELAND Browns coach Mike Pettine will start
quarterback Brian Hoyer ahead of rookie Johnny Manziel in
Clevelands second exhibition game.
Pettine said Thursday that Hoyer will begin Monday
nights game in Washington against the Redskins. Pettine
says the team is comfortable with Hoyer starting and that
its little overblown as to who the starter is going to be.
Hoyer and Manziel will both get snaps with Clevelands
starting offense. The two quarterbacks have been competing
for the starting job since training camp opened last month.
Hoyer started the preseason opener at Detroit and
Manziel, the popular rst-round pick from Texas A&M,
only played with the second-stringers.
Pettine wants to name his starter for the Sept. 7 season
opener at Pittsburgh before the Browns third preseason
game on Aug. 23.

Marijuana is casting an ever-thicken-
ing haze across NFL locker rooms, and
its not simply because more players
are using it.
As attitudes toward the drug soften,
and science slowly teases out marijua-
nas possible benets for concussions
and other injuries, the NFL is reaching
a critical point in navigating its tenu-
ous relationship with what is recog-
nized as the analgesic of choice for
many of its players.
Its not, lets go smoke a joint,
retired NFL defensive lineman Marvin
Washington said. Its, what if you
could take something that helps you
heal faster from a concussion, that pre-
vents your equilibrium from being off
for two weeks and your eyesight for
being off for four weeks?
One challenge the NFL faces is how
to bring marijuana into the game as a
pain reliever without condoning its use
as a recreational drug. And facing a law-
suit led on behalf of hundreds of for-
mer players complaining about the
effects of prescription painkillers they
say were pushed on them by team train-
ers and doctors, the NFL is looking for
other ways to help players deal with the
pain from a violent game.
AGallup poll last year found 58 per-
cent of Americans believe marijuana
should be legalized. Thats already hap-
pened in Colorado and Washington
the states that are home of last seasons
Super Bowl teams.
The World Anti-Doping Agency has
said it does not need to catch out-of-
competition marijuana users. And at
least one high-prole coach, Pete
Carroll of the champion Seahawks,
publicly said hed like to see the NFL
study whether marijuana can help play-
ers.
There are no hard numbers on how
many NFLplayers are using marijuana,
but anecdotal evidence, including the
arrest or league discipline of no fewer
than a dozen players for pot over the
past 18 months, suggests use is
becoming more common.
Washington Redskins defensive
back Ryan Clark didnt want to pin-
point the number of current NFL play-
ers who smoke pot but said, I know a
lot of guys who dont regularly smoke
marijuana who would use it during the
season.
Washington wouldnt put a specic
number on it but said he, too, knew his
share of players who werent shy about
lighting up when he was in the league,
including one guy who just hated the
pain pills they were giving out at the
time. Another longtime defensive
lineman, Marcellus Wiley, estimates
half the players in the average NFL
locker room were using it by the time
he shut down his career in 2006.
They are leaning on it to cope with
the pain, said Wiley, who played
defensive line in the league for 10 sea-
sons. They are leaning on it to cope
with the anxiety of the game.
The NFL is ghting lawsuits on two
fronts concussions and painkillers
both of which, some argue, could be
positively inuenced if marijuana were
better tolerated by the league.
The science, however, is slow-mov-
ing and expensive and might not ever
be conclusive, says behavioral psy-
chologist Ryan Vandrey, who studies
marijuana use at John Hopkins.
Marijuana may work better for some
people, while narcotics and other
painkillers might be better for others.
Different medicines work differently
from person to person, Vandrey said.
Theres pretty good science that
shows marijuana does have pain reliev-
ing properties. Whether its a better
pain reliever than the other things
available has never been evaluated.
NFL seeks right answer for pot use
TURIN, N.Y. They came to grieve
and share stories about Kevin Ward
Jr., who was born into a racing family
and buried with racing ags in his cas-
ket.
A high school auditorium over-
owed with friends, family and racing
enthusiasts Thursday in tribute to the
20-year-old driver, who was hit on a
dirt track by a car driven by NASCAR
champion Tony Stewart.
With Ward in an open casket piled
with orange flowers, his familys
team colors, mourners wept and
laughed at favorite stories about the
boy who began racing not long after
he began walking. The 90-minute
service was held at
the South Lewis
Senior High
School to accom-
modate crowds
from this tight rac-
ing community in
central New York.
Even if he had
rough day, he
always had a
smile, a tearful Dylan Swiernick said
of his best friend and car-obsessed
buddy. We were just two small-town
boys trying to make it in the big
world. He was always working on
something. It was unbelievable how
smart he was. He never got down on
himself when things werent going
his way.
Ward, a 2012 South Lewis graduate,
was buried in his nearby hometown of
Port Leyden, 55 miles from Syracuse.
He was an amazing sprint car driv-
er and had a family like no other,
cousin Amanda Ward said in a eulogy.
We used to tell him before every race,
Drive it like you stole it. He never
let us down.
Sister Kayla Herring said the orange
and white lapel ribbons worn by fam-
ily and friends were to signify that the
team colors would remain bright,
even in the darkest times.
A recording of the Dixie Chicks
singing Godspeed (Sweet Dreams)
was played at the request of Wards

reach the World Series since 1983 and the
rst Urban Initiative afliate to earn a berth
since Harlem in 2002.
While the Urban Initiative helps provide
resources essential to running successful
leagues, its director Demiko Ervin is
reluctant to take credit for Jackie Robinson
Wests success, noting that the program has
been around since 1971.
Everybody wants to talk about the Urban
Initiative League and how weve helped
Jackie Robinson West, Ervin said.
Theyve beneted from the program, but
Ive got to give so much credit to the folks
in that league and folks in that community.
It doesnt work if you dont have the
coaches and the volunteers that come out,
support them and do the things that it takes
to run a league, Ervin added. Theyre one
of the better Urban Initiative Leagues in the
country.
The players parents got an assist from
some major leaguers.
Atlanta Braves outelders Justin and B.J.
Upton were among those contacted by
Colorado Rockies pitcher LaTroy Hawkins
about chipping in to pay the travel costs to
Pennsylvania.
I know when I was a kid, I wanted my
family to be there to support me and see me
play, Justin Upton said. I thought it would
be cool for them to see the experience with
the kids.
Its good to see young African-American
kids playing and having a team full of
young kids enjoying the game. Hopefully,
it can be something that makes them think
Id like to play on that stage, so maybe I
should pursue baseball.
Detroits Torii Hunter said he got texts
about helping out from Hawkins, and former
major leaguers Jacque Jones and Junior
Spivey, all the boys I kind of grew up in
this game with.
Its inner city, so its what I love to do,
give those guys the life experiences more
than anything, Hunter said. Their fami-
lies, the kids, get a chance to travel and go
somewhere and see something different. I
think if you give more inner-city kids those
life experiences, it changes everything.
Jackie Robinson West is one of nearly
200 Urban Initiative Leagues in about 100
cities across the country, although no
records are available on how many young
African-Americans are involved because
most registration forms dont request infor-
mation on nationality or race.
We dont keep those kinds of statistics,
Ervin said.
A lot of people think it has to do with
leagues having a predominate number of
African-Americans, and thats not it. Its
more of a need-based program, Ervin added.
We want to make sure all of our leagues, all
communities, all neighborhoods, from the
affluent to the disadvantaged have the
opportunity to play Little League. Thats
what it about.

STANFORD A.J. Tarpley heard all off-
season how Stanford would need to replace
the production and locker room leadership
linebackers Shayne Skov and Trent Murphy
provided on defense.
He heard how the departures of defensive
coordinator Derek Mason and inside line-
backers coach David Kotulski to Vanderbilt
could complicate the Cardinals transition.
And he heard how the linebackers left behind,
most notably himself, could be set up for a
major setback this season.
Tarpleys response? He has heard this all
before.
Look at Coach Shaw. When everyone said,
Coach Harbaughs leaving, how are you
going to replace his excitement, his determi-
nation for the game? He just said hes David
Shaw. He has his way of doing things,
Tarpley said. To me, thats worked out pretty
well.
Tarpley is at the forefront of Stanfords lat-
est leadership shift.
With Skov and Murphy in NFL training
camps, the fth-year senior middle line-
backer is the most experienced and decorated
player on defense. He has led the team with
216 tackles over the last three seasons,
though his success has often been overlooked
because of those playing next to him.
I think Shaynes personality and Shaynes
big plays that he made maybe put A.J. in the
shadow a little bit, Shaw said. But when
you go back and watch the lm, A.J. was
extremely productive. And thats what youre
looking for, a guy that makes the plays hes
supposed to make and that maybe makes the
plays hes not supposed to make.
Tarpley is expected to become a more
proactive leader and public face of Stanfords
defense this season, especially with the
Mohawk-sporting, eye-black wearing Skov
ghting for a spot on the San Francisco 49ers
now. Tarpley said hes ready to take on what-
ever role is needed to help the two-time
defending Pac-12 champions to another title.
But he wont be somebody that hes not.
Instead, Tarpley intends to lead teammates
by the way he plays and the way he works. He
admits there are roles that will have to be
lled, such as leading the breakdowns after
practices and games, but he believes thats
just part of the natural evolution of any
Stanford player.
You become a leader through your whole
career here, Tarpley said. Its not some-
thing that youre automatically respected
when youre a senior. Youre respected
because of what youve done, how youve car-
ried yourself through the years.
Tarpley began to emerge after Skovs sea-
son-ending knee injury in 2011 wearing a
liberal display of eye black to honor his
injured teammate and has remained a con-
stant contributor since. He nished that sea-
son with 57 tackles, had 66 in 2012 and 93
last season.
Shaw said Tarpley started to make an
impression on the coaching staff in his red-
shirt freshman season in 2010 during the
teams scrimmages. But there were All-
Americans and all-conference performers in
front of him, so the former Minnesota
Gatorade Football Player of the Year would
have to wait his turn to shine on Saturdays.
It is not surprising at all to see A.J.
Tarpley be successful on the eld. That dude
works just as hard as anybody on this team, if
not harder, senior safety Jordan Richards
said. Hes kind of been outshined by some
guys that have a little more media personali-
t y, but thats a darn good football player.
Tarpley came through in some of the
biggest moments for Stanford last year.
He had four solo tackles, one sack, one
forced fumble and one pass breakup to help
Stanford beat North Division rival Oregon.
He nished with seven tackles against
Arizona State in the Pac-12 title game, and he
had a crucial interception in the win over
Washington.
With rigorous road games at Oregon,
UCLA, Arizona State and Notre Dame this
season, Stanford might tap Tarpleys talents
more than it ever has before. Just dont expect
him to embrace the cameras the way Skov so
often did.
A.J. Tarpleys time in Stanford spotlight arrives

University to work in baseball operations
during the 2014 season.
But McKinley lured Tufo away and its
another upward step in Tufos plan. The two
first met during a recruiting stop in
Sacramento Tufo scouting for the Oaks
and McKinley for Sacramento State. They
hit it off and stayed in contact with one
another over the last couple of years.
Back to Menlo
When McKinley had a spot open up on his
bench, he put the call in to Tufo.
Dave wants to be a head coach, thats
what drew me to him, McKinley said in a
telephone interview. Hes super dependable
and super knowledgeable. During the inter-
view process, he was far more prepared (than
the other candidates). Not only with what he
teaches but why he teaches it.
Tufo will handle the Oaks offensive game
and work with the inelders, while at the
same time serving as sounding board to
manager McKinley.
Hes been an assistant for all these years,
but hes never been the right-hand man,
McKinley said. Hes truly going to get his
rst crack at being a top assistant.
Preparing for the future
Whether he knew it or not at the time,
Tufo said his playing days in high school
and college prepared him to be a coach. Tufo
was an undersized, but scrappy, inelder, but
what he may have lacked in physical abili-
t y, he more than made up for with his mental
game.
I wasnt the greatest player, so I had to
use tools that werent necessarily physical
tools. I felt if I was blessed with more ath-
leticism, maybe I wouldnt have set up this
(coaching) path, Tufo said. I dont regret
not having those (physical) abilities. I just
had to nd a way to beat my competition by
being one step ahead mentally.
Tufo credits his high school coach, Rich
Sciutto, for helping him look at the game
from a coachs point of view. Tufo said dur-
ing his high school years, he and Sciutto
would sit around and talk about the nuances
of the game.
Hes been a big inuence. I believe he
was a big help for me becoming the type of
player that led me here, Tufo said. We
would talk strategy why he would send
the runner, or why he had me bunting here.
We still talk to this day. We talk a lot
about the game, the coaching aspect.
Starting a coaching career
When Tufos playing days came to end fol-
lowing the summer of his senior year, he
gured he might as well do something with
his degree in economics. However, after
only a couple months in the real world,
Tufo decided to he needed to get back in the
game. He started volunteering at Stanford
and other baseball camps before being hired
as an assistant at Menlo.
The summer following his rst year at
Menlo, Tufo got the opportunity to coach in
the Coastal Plains League and has returned
for the last four summers. Tufo credits that
move as crucial to his development because
this season we was tabbed to serve as head
coach for the Forest City Owls in 2013 and
the Fayetteville (North Carolina)
SwampDogs in 2014, leading the
SwampDogs to a 25-29 record this summer.
I was hesitant because I was two
months into coaching college baseball. I
didnt know if I could coach at that level,
Tufo said. What Ive been able to learn just
from coaching school ball to going out to
summer league the last years (is immeasura-
ble). It gave me a much bigger understand-
ing of the game.
On the right path
Add to that education the time spent at
Santa Clara last season, dealing with the
administrative side of running a college
program, and Tufo is poised to capitalize on
his next opportunity but realizing he
still can learn plenty working with
McKinley and the Menlo program.
I feel for where Im at right now, Im on a
good track. I know there is still a lot of work
to be done. Having this opportunity is
going to allow me to solidify me efforts and
my beliefs of who I am as a coach, Tufo
said. There are a lot of pieces that need to
come together to really feel condent that
this is what you want to be doing.
McKinley is just hoping that as Tufo
grows as a coach, the Menlo program grows
along with him.
I think he gets it. He gets the whole
process of being a head coach, McKinley
said. Not only be a guy who can get our
guys better, but he can get better, too.
SPORTS 14
Thats obviously been a big point of
emphasis. Im looking for us to go out and
make some plays both offensively and
defensively. Our guys have worked extreme-
ly hard and I think these couple of days
against the Cowboys will help us in getting
ready for that.
The Lions didnt get to see much at all
from their offense in their exhibition open-
ing 13-12 win over the Cleveland Browns.
Quarterback Matthew Stafford played just
one series, going 2 for 4 for 18 yards and
leading Detroit to a eld goal.
Star receiver Calvin Johnson was a
healthy scratch as the Lions are being extra
careful with their top player after offseason
surgeries on his nger and knees.
Coach Jim Caldwell hasnt said how much
time, if any, those two stars will get against
the Raiders.
But the Lions hope that just making this
cross-country trip will be benecial prepa-
ration for the season when they will have to
make a couple of long ights.
Going out there is good for us, running
back Reggie Bush said. Were going to
play at Arizona this season and theres
London, so its good to get out of the time
zone. Its nice to have that in a preseason
game.
RAIDERS
Selig is the second-longest-serving head
of baseball behind Kenesaw Mountain
Landis (1920-44). The trio of candidates
was picked by a seven-man succession com-
mittee chaired by St. Louis Cardinals chair-
man Bill DeWitt Jr.
Manfred has been involved in baseball
since 1987, starting as a lawyer with
Morgan, Lewis & Bockius who assisted in
collective bargaining. He became MLBs
executive vice president for labor relations
and human resources in 1998, received an
expanded role of executive vice president of
economics and league affairs in 2012 and
last September was promoted to chief oper-
ating ofcer. He helped lead negotiations
for baseballs last three labor contracts with
players and the joint drug agreement that
was instituted in 2002 and has been repeat-
edly strengthened.
Werner, 64, was the controlling owner of
the San Diego Padres from 1990-94, trig-
gering fan criticism for the payroll-paring
departures of Fred McGriff, Gary Shefeld,
Tony Fernandez, Randy Myers and Benito
Santiago. He has been part of the Red Sox
ownership group since 2002, a period that
included three World Series titles. While
working at ABC, he helped develop Robin
Williams Mork & Mindy and later was
executive producer of The Cosby Show
and Roseanne at The Carsey-Werner Co.
MLBs last contested election for com-
missioner was after Spike Eckert was red in
December 1968. With the requirement then a
three-quarters majority in both the
American and National leagues, teams split
between San Francisco Giants vice presi-
dent Chub Feeney and Yankees president
Michael Burke and failed to elect anyone
during 19 ballots.
Bowie Kuhn, counsel to baseballs Player
Relations Committee, was elected commis-
sioner pro-tem on Feb. 4, 1969, with a one-
year term. He was voted a seven-year term
that August and remained in ofce until
October 1984, when he was replaced by Los
Angeles Olympics head Peter Ueberroth.
Former Yale President A. Bartlett Giamatti
took over from Ueberroth in April 1989,
died later that September and was replaced
by his deputy commissioner, Fay Vincent.
Selig, then the Milwaukee Brewers owner,
teamed with Reinsdorf to head the group
that pressured for Vincents forced resigna-
tion in September 1992.
Selig led baseball as head of the executive
council for nearly six years, including the 7
1/2-month strike in 1994-95 that canceled
the World Series. He repeatedly said he
wouldnt take the job fulltime before he for-
mally was voted commissioner in July
1998.
Ueberroth, Giamatti, Vincent and Selig
were elected unanimously.

Neuer, Ronaldo, Robben
vie for European honors
NYON, Switzerland World Cup-win-
ning goalkeeper Manuel Neuer, Champions
League-winning forward Cristiano Ronaldo
and Dutch star Arjen Robben are vying for
honors as the best player in Europe.
The shortlist was announced Thursday by
European soccers governing body. The
three topped a poll of journalists from 54
member countries. Those voters selected the
original 10-candidate list. The winner will
be announced Aug. 28 at the Champions
League draw in Monaco.
Neuer, of Germany and Bayern Munich,
was honored as outstanding goalkeeper at
the World Cup. Ronaldos 17 Champions
League goals for Real Madrid was a competi-
tion record. Robben helped the Netherlands
and Bayern reach the semifinals of the
Champions League and World Cup.
Lionel Messi, Andres Iniesta and Franck
Ribery previously won the award.
Suarezs 4-month playing ban upheld
The Court of Arbitration for Sport upheld
Luis Suarezs four-month ban for biting an
opponent at the World Cup, but cleared him
Thursday to train with Barcelona.
CAS said FIFAs sanctions against Suarez
are generally proportionate to the offence
committed.
Suarez cannot play for Barcelona until
Oct. 26, and he remains banned for
Uruguays next eight competitive matches.
Suarez has admitted to biting Italy defend-
er Giorgio Chiellinis shoulder during
Uruguays 1-0 win at the World Cup.
The sanctions imposed on the player by
FIFA have been generally conrmed, the
court said in a statement.

NFL PRESEASON GLANCE
KANSAS CITY, Mo. Nori Aoki
and Billy Butler each drove in two
runs in a ve-run seventh and the
surging Kansas City Royals rallied to
defeat the Oakland Athletics 7-3
Thursday.
The Royals have won 18 of 22 to
move 12 games above .500 for the
rst time since July 20, 2003.
The Royals took the season series,
winning ve of seven against the
Athletics, who have the best record in
the majors.
Aokis two-run triple put the
Royals ahead 5-3. Butlers single
scored Aoki and Alcides Escobar.
Jarrod Dyson fouled off four consecu-
tive pitches before hitting an RBI
single to right for the rst run of the
inning.
Right-hander Jeff Samardzija (3-2)
took the loss, giving up four runs,
three earned, and eight hits in 6 2-3
innings.
He left with a 3-2 lead, but Ryan
Cook failed to hold it, facing three
batters and all scored. Cooks streak
of 21 consecutive scoreless innings
ended.
Aaron Crow (6-1), the third of six
Kansas City pitchers, picked up the
victory, retiring the only batter he
faced.
Starter James Shields gave up three
runs and seven hits in six innings and
has a 1.94 ERA in his past eight
starts. Greg Holland earned the nal
two outs for his 36th save in 38
opportunities.
The As scored two runs in the sixth
when Dyson lost Josh Reddicks high
y in the sun for a triple, which scored
Stephen Vogt.
Alberto Callaspo drove in two
Oakland runs with a single and a sac-
rice y.
On deck
Athletics: RHP Jason Hammel

Chip Saran watched the others
before him break down the barri-
ers, athletes like Jason Collins
and Michael Sam who let the world
know they were gay.
The Arizona State offensive
lineman had already told his team-
mates and coaches long before,
without causing so much as a rip-
ple.
But when Saran nally took his
turn to pass through the door, he
was a little surprised to nd what
was on the other side.
I was a little nervous when it
came to my attention what a big
inuence this was having, Saran
said Thursday. I did not intend for
it to get to the magnitude that it
did.
Saran became the rst active
openly-gay Division I football
player when he talked to Compete,
a Tempe-based magazine for gay
sports, about his sexual orienta-
tion for a story in its August issue.
The fth-year senior follows in
the footsteps of Sam, the St. Louis
Rams linebacker who came out
after his playing days at Missouri
were over. Sam became the rst
openly-gay player to be drafted in
the NFL and is competing for a
roster spot with the Rams.
Collins set the original prece-
dent, becoming the rst openly-
gay athlete in the four major U.S.
sports when he came out to Sports
Illustrated in April 2013. He
broke another barrier when he
played for the Brooklyn Nets late
last season.
Numerous other athletes have
come out since then, including
Massachusetts sophomore Derrick
Gordon, the rst active openly-
gay player in Division I basket-
ball.
With so many precedent-setters
before him, Sarafin figured his
announcement would be treated
with little more than a shrug.

In its third incarnation, The
Expendables has become, well,
expendable.
Despite some ruthless new tac-
tics, theres no saving The
Expendables 3, the overpopulat-
ed third outing of Sylvester
Stallones all-star action ensem-
ble.
Perhaps recognizing its own
mortality, Expendables 3 goes
for a kitchen-sink approach.
Theres the injection of AARP-
eligible action stars like Wesley
Snipes, Mel Gibson and Harrison
Ford into the already bursting-at-
the-seams cast, as well the addi-
tion of some junior Expendables.
Those extra bodies dont add any
oomph to the stiff dialogue or
predictable plot.
After liberating a long-lost
Expendables comrade (Snipes)
and watching another (Terry
Crews) go down in a battle with
Gibsons maniacal arms dealer,
the third installment nds team
leader Barney (a more puffy yet
still personable Stallone) booting
his pals (Jason Statham, Dolph
Lundgren, Randy Couture) in
favor of younger, prettier models.

Stallone may come across as the

Stallone said ahead of the world

They go, `Whos that? Im

SENIOR CORRESPONDENT
HANDCRAFTED WORK BYJEN-
NIFER CRUPI AT THE MUSEUM
OF CRAFT AND DESIGN IN SAN
FRANCISCO. Jennifer Crupi: A
Display of Gestures, organized by the
Museum of Craft and Design, is the rst
presentation of this conceptual-metal-
smith artists work on the West Coast.
This exhibition includes 13 handcrafted
works of art made from sterling silver
and aluminum that address ways we com-
municate with each other through body
language and specic movements.
Crupis wearable, articulated and interac-
tive objects become instruments for
gestural behavior, often taking a humor-
ous approach to pointing out actions we
make to express concealed frustration or
anxiety. By exploring gesture as orna-
ment, Crupi creates a physical prompt
akin to choreography that can be
observed and even traced. By scripting
gestures for the wearer, Crupi blurs the
distinction between object maker and
theatrical/performance director. Crupi is
a Full Professor at Kean University,
Union, New Jersey, where she has
taught since 1999. Her work is in the
permanent collection of the
Smithsonian American Art Museum,
Washington, D.C. Jennifer Crupi: A
Display of Gestures may be seen
through Oct. 5.
The Museum of Craft and Design is
located in the American Industrial
Center at 2569 Third St. at 22nd in the
historic Dogpatch neighborhood of San
Francisco. MCD offers a variety of pro-
gramming for adults, ranging from
workshops to artist lectures to commu-
nity events. On Saturday, Sept. 6 from 2
p.m. to 5 p.m. there will be an Adult
Class in Making Terrariums. In this
hands-on workshop, you can learn how
to design with and care for succulents
and how to build a terrarium. Pick out
your succulents and make your very own
glass orb terrarium, with plenty of
design advice along the way. Tickets are
$50 for the general public or $45 for
museum members. Instructor Brandi
Chalker is the founder of Sunshine &
Succulents. Her terrariums have been
featured on ABC7 and she has taught
workshops for the San Francisco
Conservatory of Flowers. For informa-

Expendables 2.0: an angst-filled soldier

The unmemorable Millennials are kid-

duced. Obviously, its up to the old-timers to
save the day. It doesnt really matter how or
why they do it though. Ultimately, it feels
like every one other than series shepherd
Stallone is merely here to be another face on
the crowded 16-person poster, not to actual-
ly play any sort of character.
Arnold Schwarzenegger and Antonio
Banderas provide the lms comic relief.
Banderas does so intentionally as a motor-
mouthed, out-of-work assassin who really
wants to be on the team, while
Schwarzeneggers return as Expendables
associate Trench is just laughably bad. Of
course, acting isnt why anyone goes to one
of these Expendables movies.
Its the explosions, ghts and chases fea-
turing the likes of Terminator and Rambo!
Yes, the shoot-em-up action from director

Menzies Jr. is as tight as a Call of Duty
match-up, especially the brainless, bloodless

years of aviation, airplane technology
advanced in leaps and bounds yet airport
development lagged behind. Into this void
came the seaplane, an aircraft able to y with-
out need of runways to any destination near an
ocean or lake. By the 1930s seaplanes held
absolute speed records and inaugurated air
travel between the continents. Just a decade
later, however, a boom in airport construc-
tion during World War II had rendered most
obsolete. Today, seaplanes y primarily for
recreation a unique intersection of the
romance of boating and excitement of gener-
al aviation.
Inside the Museum, in the new centerpiece
exhibit, is a Grumman HU-16 Albatross, the
last and largest of the famed Grumman
amphibians. The Museums aircraft, N44RD,
participated in an around-the-world ight fol-
lowing the path originally own by Amelia
Earhart in 1937. The Museums Albatross was
graciously donated by local businessman and
philanthropist Mr. Reid Dennis. At the end of
the day, the Museum will bid farewell to many
of the Grumman, Republic and Lake amphib-
ians as they depart for their home airports.
The Seaplane event is included in Museum

Assembly Appropriations Committee 12-5
and will head to the oor for a vote next
week. If it passes the Assembly, it will
return to the Senate oor for a concurrence
vote as it was amended.
I love the coast of California from one
end to the other. It is beautiful and unique,
every inch is different and its something
that does belong to everyone, Hill said.
Because of its beauty and recreational
potential and the fact that the state law
requires that the public have access to it, I
dont want a part of San Mateo County to be
deprived, residents of California to be
deprived of that beautiful beach.
Hill said he was pleasantly surprised to
receive full Democratic support in the
Appropriations Committee as Khosla hired
lobbyists who have vigorously worked
against SB 968.
California Strategies Rusty Areias, a for-
mer coastal commissioner, and Ted Harris
were hired by Khosla and are lobbying
against the bill. Areias and Harris argue that
Martins Beach is private property, that
opening it to the public would force Khosla
to run it as a business, impose nancial
commitments and that enacting legislation
in a complicated case hinders negotiations.
The bill, which easily passed the state
Senate in May, had a setback and was strick-
en of its most forceful language in the
Assembly Committee on Natural Resources
in June, Hill said, due to misinformation
Areias spread. The bill originally instructed
the SLC to use eminent domain if a compro-
mise with Khosla cannot be met by Jan. 1,
2015.
As amended, the bill now encourages,
instead of requires, the SLC to take an ease-
ment in the interests of public beach access.
Although specic language was removed
from the bill, the semantics remain the same
as the SLC already retains the authority to
use eminent domain and could still acquire a
right-of way access through condemnation.
However, the SLC has never used condem-
nation.
What the bill says today, is it gives the
state a year to negotiate with him over some
resolution to access, Hill said. Because
its tied so closely to the State Lands
Commission, which has the authority to
condemn the property if they felt that there
was a need in order to gain access, thats
why the ght is so hard.
Fairy tale
There are two pending civil lawsuits that
seek to reopen Martins Beach and the
California Coastal Commission has a sur-
vey asking the public to provide testimony
to afrm the land was treated as though it
were public for at least ve years. Martins
Beach was previously accessible to the pub-
lic for nearly 100 years.
Areias said the media has created an inac-
curate fairy tale and, when the previous own-
ers decided to sell the property, California
State Parks, the Midpeninsula Regional
Open Space District and the Nature
Conservancy turned it down.
Harris and Areias said the legal and geo-
graphical issues at Martins Beach have
been oversimplied. Last year, San Mateo
County Superior Court Judge Gerald
Buchwald found the beach was subject to the
Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, so it originat-
ed from a Mexican land grant that was con-
firmed by a federal patent and the U.S.
Supreme Court. Unlike most beaches where
public land begins at the tide lines, due to a
century of erosion, the private property line
ends a few hundred feet into the ocean,
Areias said.
I cant think of a worse case to apply
condemnation than Martins Beach because
youre applying it to a beach that has clear-
ly has unique property rights as a rancho
with a patent through the Supreme Court and
it almost certainly would increase the tem-
perature, fuel the media circus, lead to addi-
tional litigation and hinder a genuine solu-
tion, Harris said.
Opening the gate
Areias and Harris said Khosla was willing
to open the gate through the end of the year
but hasnt because it would be a media fren-
zy and there are concerns over trespassing.
Hill said opening the gate through the end
of the year was not a compromise and wants
an agreement to keep it open in perpetuity.
An appeal is currently pending in the
Buchwald case and a lawsuit led by the
Surfrider Foundation, which alleges Khosla
violated the California Coastal Act by fail-
ing to garner mandated permits before clos-
ing the gate, is awaiting a ruling.
It doesnt have to be 24/7
Hill said Areias has lobbied hard against a
bill that simply seeks to negotiate a reason-
able and fair settlement and also acknowl-
edges Khoslas property rights but, more
importantly, empowers the public to have
access to a beloved piece of coast.
All he has to do is come to the table and
seriously negotiate a settlement on perma-
nent access to the beach. That is the goal. It
doesnt have to be 24/7, it doesnt have to
be every day of the year, but he needs to do
something thats permanent, Hill said. He
feels that hes holding all the cards and that
whatever he negotiates would be out of his
generosity and magnanimous of him. He
will not out of his generosity, I dont
believe, open the beach in any permanent
form. So the legislative and legal process is
moving forward to put the public in a bet-
ter position to negotiate a fair settlement.
SB 968 will be taken up on the Assembly
oor and likely voted on either Tuesday or
Wednesday. Should it pass, it would return to
the Senate for a concurrence vote as it was
amended in the Assembly.

LOS ANGELES Robin Williams was in
the early stages of Parkinsons disease at
the time of his death, his wife said Thursday.
In a statement, Susan Schneider said that
Williams, 63, was struggling with depres-
sion, anxiety and the Parkinsons diagnosis
when he died Monday in his Northern
California home. Authorities said he com-
mitted suicide.
Robins sobriety was intact and he was
brave as he struggled with his own battles of
depression, anxiety as well as early stages
of Parkinsons disease, which he was not
yet ready to share publicly, Schneider said.
Schneider did not offer details on when the
actor comedian had been diagnosed or his
symptoms.
The Marin County Sheriffs Department,
which said Williams hanged himself, is con-
ducting toxicology tests and interviews
before issuing a nal ruling. Lt. Keith Boyd
of the Marin County Sheriffs Department
did not return phone calls and email mes-
sages from the Associated Press seeking
comment on Schneiders statement.
Williams death shocked fans and friends
alike, despite his candor about decades of
struggle with substance abuse and mental
health. With Parkinsons, Williams faced
shouldering yet another challenge.
Parkinsons disease is an incurable nerv-
ous system disorder that involves a loss of
brain cells controlling movement. Tremors,
sometimes starting out in just one hand, are
among the early symptoms.
It can also cause rigid, halting walking,
slowed speech and sometimes dementia.
Symptoms worsen over time and can often
be treated with drugs.

return for no prison time. They were
immediately sentenced to a year in
jail with credit of 24 days followed
by three years supervised probation.
The five others arrested in the bust
are Mario Gonzalez, 36, Juan
Hernandez, 39, Juan Valdez Lopez,
50, and Phin Vo Vorn, 33. On
Thursday, Gonzalezs defense asked
to continue the scheduled preliminary
hearing but the other defendants
objected. Judge Craig Parsons refused
to split the cases and continued the
hearing for all until Aug. 27.
Authorities have not said which
defendants were in the van and which
came in the panga boat holding the
180 bales of marijuana. Some are res-
idents of Sinaloa, Mexico, and the
others San Diego and San Jose.
The Department of Homeland
Security alerted the San Mateo
County Narcotics Task Force that
marijuana boats might be landing off
the county coast and, at 10:15 p.m.
Aug. 1, agents spotted the vans
entering the beach to meet the boat
landing on the beach. Bales of mari-
juana were moved from the boat to the
vans and agents stopped them as they
drove onto
Highway 101.
On the beach,
agents reported
finding an inflat-
able raft, rain
gear and cell-
phones. A local
fisherman spot-
ted the
unmanned panga
boat which was recovered by the U.S.
Coast Guard.
The case has similarities to another
maritime smuggling incident in
Pescadero. More than 1,000 pounds
of marijuana were discovered at
Pescadero State Beach after the
Sheriffs Office responded to reports
a boat was spotted along the coast
and a SUV stuck in the sand. Southern
California has also had incidents of
drug smuggling using boats to carry
the product from Mexico.

tors know what to do or the police,
Zilversmit said. Its really a night-
mare for ordinary citizens.
Zilversmit said he is weighing
whether to ask the state Supreme Court
to reconsider or appealing to the U.S.
Supreme Court. In the meantime, a San
Mateo County Superior Court judge
will re-examine whether Tom invoked
his Fifth Amendment right in any fash-
ion. If the judge agrees, the judgment
is afrmed and Tom will face a return to
prison.
Tom, 52, was halfway through serv-
ing a seven-year sentence for the crash
that killed Ng and severely injured her
sister when an appellate court in 2012
overturned conviction. Tom was
released on $300,000 bail after its rul-
ing.
Tom was obviously disappointed
in yesterdays decision, Zilversmit
said.
Prosecutors said Tom, who had been
drinking with a friend at home before
leaving for his sons house, broad-
sided the Ng familys Nissan Maxima
with his Mercedes Benz as it made its
way across Woodside Road.
Hours after the crash, Toms alcohol
level measured .04 percent. Using sci-
entic rates of alcohol processing, the
prosecution contended Tom was actual-
ly at 0.98 at the time of the crash.
However, jurors acquitted Tom of alco-
hol-related charges.
During closing arguments, Chang
told the jury Tom never inquired about
the other cars occupants.
Im not saying that he has to say
sorry as an expression of his guilt or
as some kind of confession but simply
as an expression of his regret, Chang
told jurors.
Justice Goodwin Liu, in a dissenting
opinion, said that seems a bit much
to expect from a suspect taken into
custody at an accident scene described
by an ofcer as fairly chaotic. Liu also
questioned what a suspect must exactly
say to invoke his or her right to
remain silent.
Justice Kathryn Werdegar, also dis-
sented but on a more technical point.
She wrote in her opinion that Toms
defense never objected during trial to
the use of his silence which left the
California Supreme Court unable to
review the issue.
San Mateo County District Attorney
Steve Wagstaffe said he was pleased
with the courts reversal and the state
Attorney Generals Offices willing-
ness to appeal the lower courts deci-
sion.
It is vindication for prosecutor
Chang, he said.

themes in her art like silver and
turquoise gemstones. She has made
more than 500 items in the last few
years and enjoys using Etsy to sell her
$30-$100 items.
Theyre fairly low priced, but made
with good materials, she said. Youre
a salesperson running your own web-
site through Etsy. It gives me so
much exibility for being an individ-
ual business owner.
Etsy became her online venue to sell
since the site started becoming more
popular and is in the realm of peoples
awareness.
So I tried it and found it was easy to
use and its such a great community
because they have a lot of educational
materials and they have community
forums, she said. Its very well set up
for the individual craftsperson to have
an online presence.
Shray also sells at craft fairs along
the Peninsula. This is her rst time at
the annual Burlingame festival.
I jumped at the chance because its
such a great location, she said. I love
jewelry. I love to wear jewelry
all the time. Luckily, I dont
have to buy any jewelry now.
The free event, formerly
named Burlingame ArtzFest,
runs 10 a.m.-6 p.m. Saturday,
Aug. 16 and Sunday, Aug. 17
and includes musical entertain-
ment, with more than 150
artists, a home, garden and
green venue spread throughout
the event, gourmet food and a
childrens area. The festival is
produced by the Burlingame

junction with California
