By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Officials have selected Joan Rosas as a

will retire at the end of the school year.
She knows the people she will be working with and she has the network to take us
to the next level, Ng said.
During her previous tenure in the district,

Rosas founded Fiesta Gardens International

New Fire Chief John Healy stands with San Mateo Mayor Maureen Freschet and current Fire Chief Mike Keefe during a
ceremonial celebration of the change in command.

As the state grapples with an enduring drought and new


water conservation mandates, Redwood City is expanding a
recycled water program that is free for residents.
The city expanded the program last week and will provide
up to 300 gallons a day of recycled water, also called graywater, for residents seeking to water their lawns.
Participants of the program need to complete some training first and must keep the graywater out of city storm
drains. The program is currently free for residents.
The water is also available for commercial users at a
charge, said Sindy Mulyono-Danre, the citys water
resource management supervisor.
So far, the city has about 10 commercial customers
including the scrap metal yard operated by Sims Metals, she

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

After nearly three decades of dedicating his life to serving the community,
Fire Chief Mike Keefe is stepping
down as leader of the San Mateo,
Foster City and Belmont fire departments.
In his place, Deputy Fire Chief John
Healy will take charge of the administration that provides invaluable assistance to the three cities.
Keefes 29-year career is marked as
the only firefighter in the past 40

years who has filled every rank within


San Mateos department before rising
to chief.
Ive been just absolutely honored
to serve the department and this fire
service in our community. Its a job
like no other and its something Ive
wanted to do since I was a little boy,
Keefe said. You kind of reach this pinnacle and just being a firefighter in the
fire service is amazing. Our ability to
help others and serve, then one day to
step out of that, its hard to do. But its
time for other people to step up and
take the organization [forward].

The San Mateo County Board of Supervisors is set


Tuesday to form a veterans commission to better address
their unmet needs.
There are approximately 32,000 veterans residing in the
county and more than half of them are 65 or older.
Its an effort to better coordinate services for people who
served our country, said Supervisor Warren Slocum, who is
spearheading the commissions formation.

Police inundated
with calls from people
fearing space-based weapons
Richmond police have been inundated with calls for help from people who
feel under attack from space-based
weaponry because of a City Council resolution passed last month, according to
Mayor Tom Butt.
Councilwoman Jovanka Beckles
introduced the Richmond resolution in
support of a 2001 bill introduced by
then-U.S. Rep. Dennis Kucinich, DOhio, in an effort to ensure that
Richmond residents would not be targets of space-based weaponry.
It is imperative that Richmond adopt
this resolution in effort to stand in solidarity with residents who claim to be
under assault from space-based weapons
that should be outlawed by the Space
Preservation Act, Beckles said at the
May 19 City Council meeting, where
the resolution passed 5-2.
Kucinichs resolution never passed,
but versions of it referred to alleged
technologies including chemtrails, particle beams, electromagnetic radiation,
plasmas, extremely low-frequency or
ultra high-frequency energy radiation
and mind control technology.
Beckles said at the May 19 meeting
that the resolution was intended to
include all of the things people are
feeling the pressure of and feeling the
attacks of.

Butt and Councilman Vinay Pimpl
both voted against the resolution.
Vice Mayor Jael Myrick said in a
statement that he now regrets voting in
favor of the resolution.
It has become clear in the past two
weeks that this resolution is being used
by some to validate very dangerous
conspiracy theories that may be having
a real negative impact on the lives of
people with serious mental illness and
those around them, Myrick said.

Belmont teachers ready to accept raise


Elementary school district agrees to 4 percent pay hike, plus increased medical contributions
By Austin Walsh

www.smdailyjournal.com

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Continuing a recent trend of local school


districts offering pay hikes to teachers, educators in the Belmont-Redwood Shores
Elementary School District are set to accept
a 4 percent raise next year.
Teachers and school officials have reached
a tentative agreement, which would boost
salary and medical benefit payments from
the district, effective Jan. 1, 2016.
Should the deal ultimately be approved,
teachers in the elementary school district
would join others in nearby cities such as
San Bruno, South San Francisco, Millbrae,
Redwood City and San Mateo that have
recently received raises or have tentative
agreements as well.
Teachers in Belmont-Redwood Shores
voted to ratify the agreement Friday, May
29, and it will go before the district Board of
Trustees for ultimate approval on
Wednesday, June 10. The new contract is
intended to continue through the 2018
school year.
Angela Sveda, president of BelmontRedwood Shores Faculty Association,
praised the deal.
We are starting to make progress in our
district, which is really wonderful. Its great
for our community and our teachers, so it is
good news, she said.
The new deal allows for the district to
raise its maximum contribution toward
employee medical insurance premiums by
$600.

Superintendent Michael Milliken also


expressed support for the contract, in an
email.
Im very excited that we have this tentative agreement and a new three-year contract, he said.
This is the second consecutive contract
that teachers in Belmont-Redwood Shores
have received a raise, as they accepted a 5
percent pay hike in November, as well as a
spike in district contribution to medical
insurance.
The average salary of a teacher in the district last year was roughly $72,000 last
year, which is about $2,000 less per year
than the average of all public school districts across San Mateo County, according
to a report from the state Department of
Education.
In recent years, teachers in Belmont had
publicly rallied to receive pay raises, due in
large part to concern regarding the inability
of some educators to be able to afford living
locally.
According to a survey taken last year,
roughly 25 percent of teachers needed a second job to be able to keep up with the
increasing cost of living.
Sveda said in the past few years she has
seen a lot of turnover in teacher ranks, due
to teachers electing to take work in different, better paying, districts.

She said officials heading the district currently show a greater willingness to negotiate with teachers.
Over the past few years there has been a
change of perspective and a change of values where it is becoming important to
invest in our educators for the good of our
students, she said.
A joint statement between the district and
teachers showed that both parties found the
contract to be an amicable solution to negotiations.
Leadership for the district and the association agree that the settlement represents a
good balance between valuing the work of
employees and ensuring the long-term fiscal health of the district, according to the
statement. Both parties are hopeful that
agreeing to next years compensation in
advance signals a new approach to the
negotiations process which will benefit students, staff and the entire district community.
Under the terms of the new deal in
Belmont-Redwood Shores, the average
annual salary for teachers would creep close
to $75,000.
Sveda said she is hopeful the deal is a harbinger of future, successful negotiations
between the district and teachers.
It has been challenging at times, but its
been very rewarding as well, she said.
Milliken said he believed the agreement
works in the best interest of all district parties.
The agreement is good for the district,
good for staff and good for students, he
said.

Jenner completes transition


to Caitlyn in new Vanity Fair
By Leanne Iatalie
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK Bruce Jenners transition is complete.


Call me Caitlyn, declares a headline on the July cover of Vanity Fair,
with a photo of a long-haired Jenner
in a strapless corset, legs crossed,
sitting on a stool. The image was
shot by famed celeb photographer
Annie Leibovitz. Inside, more
images show Caitlyn in gold lame, a
black bustier and a cleavage-baring,
off-the-shoulder gown.
Caitlyn Jenner also debuted a new
Twitter account with: Im so happy
after such a long struggle to be living
my true self. Welcome to the world
Caitlyn. Cant wait for you to get to
know her/me.
The account broke a record for
fastest time to reach 1 million followers, besting President Barack
Obamas new (at)Potus handle with a
mark of four hours and three minutes,

according to Guinness World


Records.
Vanity Fair took to Twitter with the
cover Monday and said Jenner spoke
emotionally about her gender journey: If I was lying on my deathbed
and I had kept this secret and never
ever did anything about it, I would be
lying there saying, You just blew
your entire life.
The cover comes after Jenners twohour ABC interview with Diane
Sawyer in which Bruce Jenner confirmed the transition. The muchanticipated 20/20 interview on
April 24 was watched by more than
17.1 million viewers.
Prior to the unveiling of Caitlyn,
Jenner had said he preferred the pronoun he, but Vanity Fair contributing editor Buzz Bissinger, who wrote
the story, refers to she.
The Olympian who married and
divorced reality show momager
Kris Jenner has appeared for years on
Keeping Up with the Kardashians.

Justices boost workplace religious protections
WASHINGTON The Supreme Court strengthened civil
rights protections Monday for employees and job applicants who need special treatment in the workplace because
of their religious beliefs.
The justices sided with a Muslim woman who did not get
hired after she showed up to a job interview with clothing
retailer Abercrombie & Fitch wearing a black headscarf.
The headscarf, or hijab, violated the companys strict
dress code, since changed, for employees who work in its
retail stores.
Employers generally have to accommodate job applicants and employees with religious needs if the employer at
least has an idea that such accommodation is necessary,
Justice Antonin Scalia said in his opinion for the court.
Job applicant Samantha Elauf did not tell her interviewer
she was Muslim. But Scalia said that Abercrombie at least
suspected that Elauf wore a headscarf for religious reasons.
That is enough, Scalia said in an opinion for seven justices.
Federal civil rights law gives religious practices favored
treatment that forbids employers from firing or not hiring
people based on their observance of religion, Scalia said.
The federal civil rights law known as Title VII requires
employers to make accommodations for employees religious beliefs in most instances.

submitted plans Monday to the state
saying they intend to plant less
thirsty crops and leave some fields
unplanted to meet voluntary water conservation targets amid the relentless
California drought, officials said.
The farmers with the strongest
water rights in the state devised the
plans as part of a deal struck last

month that would spare them deeper


mandatory cuts by the state in the
future.
Under the agreement, they must submit plans for using 25 percent less
water, fallowing 25 percent of their
land, or other strategies to achieve the
necessary water savings. Officials
hope the deal can become a model for
other farmers around the state.
At least 120 farmers in the delta east
of San Francisco had filed plans and
more were expected to submit proposals before the midnight deadline, said

Michael George, delta watermaster for


the State Water Resources Control
Board.
Further details involving particular
crop changes were not immediately
disclosed.
These are serious well-conceived
plans that will result in some significant conservation, said George, who
is tasked with calculating how much
water the changes will save.
California grows nearly half of the
fruit, nuts and vegetables consumed in
the U.S.

Some
say
that
science and religion
dont mix. Some
say that science is
the ultimate search
for God. Some say
religion supersedes
science, some say both have equal stature
and others say both are hogwash. Everyone
has their own personal assessment of the
correlation between science and religion.
The aspiration of religion along with the
aspiration of science is to explain the
universe and answer questions about life, in
addition to satisfying human psychological
needs when dealing with the realities of
death. Religion is based on faith, science is
based on observation, and both are based on
human curiosity and the need to find
answers. Whether a person is repetitively
reading religious scripture, or fascinated by
repeatable scientific experimentations, both
are searching for methods that answer
questions about the universe around us.
It can be debated that early humans
turned to religion as a way to alleviate their
fears and gain reassurance with the concept
of life after death. This helped to give them
a sense of order in a confusing world that
often seemed mysterious.
Eventually
scientific realization evolved along side
religion and the process of trial and error
established itself as a way to solve some of
these mysteries. Firethe wheelfarming.
The more humans observed the world they
lived in, the more they leaned how the
natural world worked and how they could
manipulate it to their advantage. Over the
centuries religious power came at odds with
scientific discovery, which led to a period of

scientific stagnation: The Dark Ages.


Later at the dawn of The Renaissance
science was again embraced leading to great
advances in art, architecture, medicine,
astronomy and other natural sciences. Over
the ages science and religion have been
evolving together on a roller coaster ride of
acceptance, denial and equilibrium.
We now appear to be at a crossroads
where religion is not only viewing science
with an evaluative broadmindedness, but is
exploring hand in hand with scientific
processes.
One prime example is the
Vaticans
Pontifical
Academy
of
Sciences. Quoting John Paul II: ...today
eminent scientists are members a visible
sign of the profound harmony that can
exist between the truths of science and the
truths of faith.... Gregor Mendel, the father
of Genetics, was an Augustinian Friar.
Georges Lemaitre, who developed much of
the Big Bang Theory, was a Belgian priest.
Recently, Pope Francis, who has a Masters
Degree in Chemistry, insisted that there is
no reason to believe that science and God
are incompatible.
With all this in mind, every human being
is unique as a fingerprint, and every human
brain has its own unique consciousness.
Whether you analyze with your religious cap
or your science cap, matrimony between the
two could be found by looking inward. So,
close your eyes, examine your deep
thoughts, and you may detect a rational
enlightenment finely attuned to both.

funeral matters or want to make preplanning arrangements please feel free to

LOCAL/STATE
California Senate OKs
scaled-down travel disclosure bill
SACRAMENTO California state
senators on Monday advanced a scaleddown version of a political ethics bill
after the initial proposal was vetoed by
Gov. Jerry Brown, who said it would
complicate campaign disclosure rather
than reduce influence.
The Senate passed the bill, SB21 by
Sen. Jerry Hill, D-San Mateo, on a 36-1
vote. Hills modified proposal requires
nonprofit organizations that pay for
elected officials travel to disclose the
names of donors funding that travel. It
advances to the Assembly.
The new bill requiring disclosure of
travel gifts to elected officials is much
less restrictive than Hills initial bill,
SB831, which the Democratic governor
vetoed last session.
Hill initially sought to ban elected
officials from requesting payments on
their behalf from nonprofit organizations run by family members. It also
would have placed restrictions on lawmakers trying to spend campaign contributions on personal perks, such as
vacations, utility payments and gifts
for family members.
The measure was drafted in response to
corruption charges against former state
lawmakers. Agents say supporters lavished gifts and dinners on Democratic
senators Leland Yee of San Francisco
and Ron Calderon of Montebello to
curry favor.

Erin Joseph Lucien, born Jan. 28, 1955, of Redwood City,


died May 29, 2015, surrounded by his family and friends at
the age of 60 after a two-year battle with
kidney cancer.
Husband of Beverly Lucien for 39
years, father of three daughters, Christina
Marie Lucien, Michele Yvonne Lucien and
Danielle Monet (Steve) Thompson.
Grandfather to Ashley Lucien and Blake
Thompson, to be born in July. Brother of
Wayne, Alan and Lori. Family and friends
are invited to attend his memorial service

Presidents trade agenda faces


tough battle heading into House
By Jim Kuhnhenn
and Charles Babington
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON After several near-death


experiences in the Senate, the trade agenda
that President Barack Obama is pushing as a
second term capstone faces its biggest hurdle
yet in the more polarized House.
Anti-trade forces have struggled to ignite
public outrage over Obamas bid to enact new
free-trade agreements, but Democratic opposition in Congress remains widespread.
The outcome may turn on Republicans
willingness to hand the president a major win
in his final years in office. Underscoring the
difficulties, House leaders are looking at the
second or third week of June to schedule a
vote, even though House members return
from recess on Monday.
The business of bill-passing is a messy,
sausage-making process. It was in the Senate,
and it certainly will be in the House, White
House communications director Jen Psaki
said in an interview. There will be many
moments where there will be difficult issues.
We have our eyes wide open with that.
At issue is legislation that would give
Obama parameters for the trade deals he negotiates but also speed up congressional review
of the final agreements by giving lawmakers

the right to approve or reject deals, but not


change them.
Obama is seeking this fast track authority to complete a 12-nation Trans-Pacific
trade deal that spans the Pacific rim from
Chile to Vietnam. He and trade backers say it
will open huge markets to U.S. goods by
lowering tariffs and other trade barriers.
Critics, labor and environmental groups in
particular, argue that new trade agreements
will cost jobs and that past agreements have
not lived up to labor and environmental standards.
Supporters and opponents of fast track
count about 20 House Democrats in favor with
fewer than a dozen still on the fence.
Proponents of the bill say they need at least
25 Democrats and preferably closer to 30 to
counter the 40 to 50 Republicans who are
expected to vote against it in the GOP-controlled House.
The fast-track legislation squeezed through
the Senate, coupled with a package of federal
assistance for workers displaced by free trade
agreements that helped secure Democratic
votes. That aid measure, called Trade
Adjustment Assistance, has emerged as a particularly tricky component because its a priority for Democrats, but many Republicans
oppose it and insist on publicly voting
against it.

WASHINGTON However Congress


resolves its impasse over government surveillance, this much is clear: The National
Security Agency will ultimately be out of
the business of collecting and storing
Americans calling records.
Aiming for passage Tuesday afternoon,
the Senate on Monday prepared to make
modest changes to a House bill that would
end the collection while preserving other
surveillance authorities. But while
Congress debated, the law authorizing the
collection expired at midnight Sunday.
The NSA had stopped gathering the
records from phone companies hours
before the deadline. And other post-9/11
surveillance provisions considered more
effective than the phone-call collection
program also lapsed, leading intelligence
officials to warn of critical gaps.
The legislation now before the Senate,
known as the USA Freedom Act, would reauthorize the surveillance but would phase
out NSA phone records collection over
time. It passed the House overwhelmingly
and is backed by President Barack Obama.
Sen. Rand Paul, who doesnt believe it
goes far enough in restricting the government, objected anew on Monday, but he
cant stop a vote to end debate scheduled
for Tuesday morning.
If the bill becomes law over the next few
days, the NSA will resume gathering the
phone records but only for a transition
period of six months, in the House version, or a year in the Senate version.
If the bill fails amid congressional pol-

itics, the collection cannot resume, period.


The turn of events is a victory for Edward
Snowden, the former NSA contractor who
disclosed the phone records collection in
2013. Senators on the intelligence committee had been issuing veiled and vague
warnings about the program for years, saying if Americans only knew how the Patriot
Act was being interpreted they would be
outraged.
But it was Snowden who revealed the
details.
Because of Snowden, people have some
more insight into exactly how they are
being spied upon and how the law has been
twisted to authorize mass surveillance of
people who have no connection to a crime
or terrorism, said Harley Geiger, senior
counsel with the Center for Democracy and
Technology, an advocacy group that supports the USA Freedom Act.
Still, the current legislation would hardly
count as a defeat for the NSA, Snowdens
former employer. Agency officials, including former Director Keith Alexander, have
long said they had no problem with ending
their collection of phone records, as long
as they could continue to search the data
held by the phone companies, which the
legislation allows them to do.
The USA Freedom Act doesnt address the
vast majority of Snowden revelations,
which concern NSA mass surveillance of
global Internet traffic that often sweeps in
American communication.
If the legislation fails and the surveillance provisions expire, that would be a
blow to U.S. intelligence and law enforcement agencies.

American held in Yemen freed,


French hostage pleads for help
By Ahmed Al-Haj
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SANAA, Yemen A freelance journalist


who was among several Americans held by
Iranian-backed Shiite rebels in Yemen was
set free Monday as a French hostage abducted in Yemen by an unknown party appeared
in a video pleading for help.
State Department spokeswoman Marie
Harf said that freelance journalist Casey
Coombs, who was injured, has been released
and is in Oman.
The rebels, known as Houthis, seized
Yemens capital last year and have been the
target of a U.S.-backed and Saudi-led air
campaign since March 26. Neighboring
Oman mediated the deal to release Coombs,
a freelance reporter working for The
Intercept online news website and other
publications.
Emails to the Intercept seeking comment
were not immediately returned. Coombs
reported in the Intercept in early May that
he was having trouble leaving Yemen.
A video meanwhile surfaced showing
Frenchwoman Isabelle Prime, a World Bank
consultant who was kidnapped in February,
pleading for help. The Associated Press
viewed the video on Monday.
Prime was abducted in the rebel-held capital, Sanaa, along with her Yemeni transla-

tor, who was released shortly afterward.


There has been no word until now on her
fate.
The Houthis control the capital and much
of northern Yemen, but the country is also
home to a powerful local al-Qaida affiliate
that has carried out attacks in Sanaa and
abducted foreigners in the past to trade for
ransom or imprisoned militants.
In the video, Prime appeared sitting in the
desert dressed in a black robe and looking
frail and anguished. She addressed French
President Francois Hollande and Yemeni
President Abed Rabbo Mansour Hadi by
name, saying, Please bring me to France
fast because I am really, really tired.
French Foreign Ministry spokesman
Romain Nadal said his government has verified the authenticity of the video and that it
was filmed in April. Nadal said officials
from the ministry will meet with the Prime
family on Tuesday.
He told AP that the French government is
mobilized to obtain the release of Prime.
Word of four abducted Americans first surfaced on Friday when The Washington Post
reported that three held private sector jobs,
and that the fourth holds dual U.S.-Yemeni
citizenship. It said the Americans are
believed to be imprisoned in Sanaa. Harf
said the State Department was working to
win the release of several Americans
detained in Yemen.

What a difference a year makes


By Nicole Bergeron

t is Open House season at school; a


time to reect on the years accomplishments. At this time last year, I
was new to the job as a trustee in the San
Carlos Elementary School District and
teachers were leaetting against the board
as families walked into Open House. What
a difference a year makes.

Learning
Our Strategic Plan is well known
throughout the county as a model for 21stcentury learning, leading and building.
This year, everyone in San Carlos
Elementary School District has spent
tremendous energy developing and delivering innovative and engaging curriculum
and instruction. Our recent Celebration of
Innovation at Tierra Linda Middle School
highlighted project-based learning and a
whole variety of practices that align with
the Strategic Plan.
Last week, our students took the new
standardized tests associated with
Californias adoption of the Common Core
curriculum. By all accounts, these are a
more rigorous and tech-infused approach.
While the scores will look different than
under the old standards, were looking forward to seeing how our students perform on
these new assessments.
Our students are certainly learning innovative approaches throughout the curriculum. I recently went on a eld trip with
Central Middle School sixth-graders to
Stanford Universitys d.school and IDEO.
The students were already well-versed in
design thinking. With relish, they jumped
in to empathize, dene, ideate, prototype
and test their solutions to the design challenge they were given that day.

Leading
Recognizing that our teachers bring the
Strategic Plan to life, San Carlos is committed to ensuring that we provide support
betting 21st-century educators. Teachers

and the superintendent


are circulating an exciting draft of a Teacher
Evaluation Pilot for
2015-16. Two teachers
per school will volunteer
to participate in the
pilot, which is primarily
focused on teacher professional growth. This
process is meant to be meaningful to and
motivating for the leaders engaged, and tailored to the individual needs of the teacher
as he/she works to align instructional practices to Common Core and the Strategic
Plan. It encourages self-reection, goalsetting and risk-taking. It is immensely
gratifying to see teachers and administrators lead together on this long-sought
pilot.
By all accounts, this years labor negotiations are also more productive and collaborative. This is a huge improvement over
last years protracted, tense process lled
with concerns about trust and intent. Kudos
to the superintendent for participating personally in the negotiations and to the
teachers willing to lead their colleagues
through a re-set.
All these improvements take investments, and Im lled with gratitude for the
recent passage of Measure P. This parcel
tax measure increased our funding and simplied our multiple parcel taxes. Credit
goes to the community leaders that volunteered countless hours precinct walking,
phone banking and vouching for the need.
The other truly good news is the governors May Revise of his budget we are
now able to fund long-sought programs and
build our reserves.

Building
Providing learning environments that
reect, support and sustain 21st-century
learners is the third main component of our
Strategic Plan. We are reconguring our
entire district so that we have four preKthird-grade schools, two fourth-fth-grade
schools and two sixth-eighth-grade

Guest
perspective
schools. Not only does this require design
teams to align curriculum and pedagogy but
theres a whole lot of building going on.
Measure H bond monies are a necessary
(but not sufcient) source of funds for this
endeavor so thanks again San Carlos for
supporting our schools!
The most obvious construction project is
the new Central Middle School that opens
this fall for sixth-eighth-grade. It is built
to accommodate modern learning. In June,
most of the current Central will close to be
remodeled/built for the as yet unnamed
fourth-fth-grade school on the same parcel. Were all tickled to see the names that
students are contributing for this new
school, including Extreme Awesome
but rest assured there are excellent criteria
and a communitywide process so the name
has enduring appeal.
The nitty-gritty of building, remodeling,
site selection, state architect approval,
bidding and bond issuance has involved
considerable work and collaboration from a
team of professionals. Ive walked parcels
and playgrounds, scoured spreadsheets and
listened to impassioned pleas about where
to place schools. We are blessed to have so
many thoughtful, engaged parents, teachers, students and neighbors.
Ill close this review with my own plea
for folks to step up and run for the seat
being vacated by my colleague Seth
Rosenblatt. We are a community with so
much talent ... come join us on the school
board!

inning is a choice we make


long before the game
begins. That is the faithful
belief that my older brother and head coach
of the Hillsdale Knights has championed
throughout his coaching career.
You may be surprised to learn that the
Hillsdale Knights one of the many talented high school baseball teams of San
Mateo made history this year by clinching the division championship with a season-high record of 27 wins and 3 losses.
Twenty-three of
those wins were
consecutive a
rst-time
achievement
since the baseball programs
inception. Many
have attributed
the teams phenomenal success
to the head
coach, James
Madison, who I
am blessed to
Jonathan Madison
call my older
brother. However, few have had the benet
of knowing James the way I have over the
years.
James coached me through some of lifes
most critical lessons throughout my childhood and adult life, many of which were
learned through the trial and error process
in the game of baseball. At a very young
age, I quickly learned how to compete, win
and lose and most of the time, it was not
by choice. You see, James consistently and
effortlessly beat me in baseball.
We were often considered troublemakers
in our small neighborhood in Pacica
not because we caused any real harm, but
because we frequently played baseball long
after dark, startling our sleeping neighbors
with competitive chants and broken windows.
I am frequently reminded of the nights
my father was forced to stop us from playing after dark as my cries of defeat would
wake others in our neighborhood. I learned
with maturity that my brothers relentless
competitiveness with which he beat me in
baseball was much more reective of his
commitment to the game, rather than any
desire to beat his younger brother.
As my high school baseball coach, he
would often suggest that winning is a
choice we make long before each game.
Sometimes, my teammates would appear
doubtful of his statement. Perhaps I was the
only teammate who could fully understand
what he meant.
My brother and coach instilled in me that
failure was not an option, and that success
was mandatory. This went for every challenge I faced and it rings true to me today.
Whether it was a knockdown in judo, a bad
grade on a test, or yes, even a loss in baseball, he insisted continually to leave nothing on the eld that mental preparation
and condence are crucial components to
victory.
His track record as a coach speaks to his
fearless mindset. The Hillsdale Knights
were not the rst team he led to historic
victories. In Wisconsin, James led Western
Tech Community College to a record of 19
wins and 16 losses within one year as head
coach, while the team was previously in a
slump of eight wins and 34 losses.
James has only been head coach of the
Hillsdale Knights for two years, and yet
history has already been made. And while
the student athletes under his instruction
see the older, wiser coach he is today, I will
always remember the journey it took for
him to become that coach. I look forward
to seeing my older brother lead Hillsdale to
another history-making season next year.

NEW YORK Stocks rose on


Monday after the release of some
encouraging economic data and news
of a big acquisition in the semiconductor industry.
The gains were modest, but broad.
Eight of the 10 industry sectors in the
Standard and Poors 500 index ended
higher, led by industrial stocks with a
gain of 0.4 percent.
The biggest gainer in the S&P 500
was chip designer Altera, the target of
a $17 billion cash offer by giant chipmaker Intel. Altera jumped $2.83 to
$51.68, a 6 percent gain. Companies
have been combining at a rapid clip,
helping to boost stocks in the seventh
year of the bull market.
The S&P 500 rose 4.34 points, or
0.2 percent, to 2,111.73. The Dow
Jones industrial average rose 29.69
points, or 0.2 percent, to 18,040.37.
The Nasdaq composite climbed 12.90
points, or 0.3 percent, to 5,082.93.
In economic news, U.S. manufacturing growth accelerated in May for the
first time in six months, propelled by
more new orders and an increase in hiring, according to the Institute for
Supply Management, a trade group. A
separate report showed construction
spending climbed in April to the high-

est level in more than six years.


Investors are anxious about U.S.
growth following a series of weak
data, capped by news Friday that the
economy shrank in the first three
months of the year. Theyll have a better sense of the growth outlook later
this week after several other economic
reports are released, culminating
Friday with one on hiring in May.
The market is looking at the data
and saying, this is good, said Mizuho
Securities chief economist Steven
Ricchiuto, referring to Mondays construction and factory reports. It supports the idea that GDP will rebound in
the second quarter.
Ricchiuto cautioned that he doesnt
think economic growth will be fast
enough to result in big corporate profit gains that will push stock prices
higher. Earnings for companies in the
S&P 500 are expected to rise just 0.6
percent for the full year, according to
the S&P Capital IQ, a research firm.
Investors are also anxious about
when the Federal Reserve will raise
short-term interest rates. It has held
them near zero since for more than six
years to encourage borrowing and
spending.
The Altera deal follows several other
blockbuster corporate deals recently,
including a $55 billion acquisition by
Charter Communications for rival

Time Warner Cable last week. So far


this year, more than $700 billion in
deals have been announced, a 43 percent jump from the same period a year
ago, according to S&P Capital IQ.
Intel fell 55 cents to $33.91, a loss
of 1.6 percent, the biggest drop in the
Dow index.
Among other stocks making big
moves, the solid construction data
helped push up homebuilders. D.R.
Horton rose 32 cents, or 1.2 percent,
to $26. 44. Toll Brothers rose 38
cents, or 1.2 percent, to $36.55.
In Europe, tensions remain high as
Greece inches closer to a Friday deadline to make a debt payment to the
International Monetary Fund. Greece
is struggling to convince the IMF and
creditors in Europe that it has a reform
strategy in place so it can get access to
more bailout cash.
Concerns about Greece continue to
hold investors back from taking on
too much risk, said Fawad Razaqzada,
an analyst at Forex.com.
Germanys DAX rose 0.2 percent
while the CAC-40 in France gained 0.4
percent. Britains FTSE 100 fell 0.4
percent.
In Asia, the Shanghai Composite
jumped 4.7 percent following a steep
plunge last week triggered partly by a
pullback on lending to investors at
brokerages.

Google tries to demystify privacy controls with new approach


Google still struggles
to diversify beyond
white and Asian men
By Michael Liedtke
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO Google isnt making much headway diversifying its workforce beyond white and Asian
men, even though the Internet company hired women to
fill one out of every five of its openings for computer programmers and other high-paying technology jobs last
year.
The imbalanced picture emerged in a demographic breakdown that Google released Monday. The report underscored
the challenges that Google and most other major technology companies face as they try to add more women, blacks
and Hispanics to their payrolls after many years of primarily relying on the technical skills of white and Asian men.
Early indications show promise, but we know that with
an organization our size, year-on-year growth and meaningful change is going to take time, said Nancy Lee,
Googles vice president of people operations.
Just 18 percent of Googles worldwide technology jobs
were held by women entering 2015, up a percentage point
from the previous year. Whites held 59 percent of Googles
tech jobs in the U.S., while Asians filled 35 percent of the
positions, according to the report.
The slight uptick in women stemmed from a concerted
effort to bring the numbers up. Google said 21 percent of
the workers that it hired for technology jobs last year were
women.

Intel buys into chips powering


cloud computing, smarter cars
By Bree Fowler
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK Intel is buying chip


designer Altera for about $16.7 billion
in cash to expand its reach into new
chip markets that are powering the wireless revolution, smarter cars and more.
The deal is the biggest in Intel Corp.s
47-year history. It is the latest in an
industry that is looking to acquisitions
to boost lackluster sales and cut costs.
Sales are falling for personal computers
because people are increasingly turning
to smartphones and tablets.
While Intel already works with Altera
on the manufacturing of certain kinds of

high-end chips, Intel CEO Brian


Krzanich said that owning the company
will allow Intel to fully integrate that
manufacturing and put in place design
and production improvements, ultimately lowering costs and improving
the products.
Altera is known for making chips
used in phone networks and cars, markets in which Intel has been looking to
expand.
Their PC chip business is going
downhill, and so heres a way to bolster
their earnings by getting into a different
type of business, says Tony Cherin,
finance professor emeritus at San Diego
State University.

where they are, what theyre doing


and what theyre thinking.
A recently released survey by the
Pew Research Center found 93 percent
of adults in the U.S. consider being in
control of their personal information
to be important. Yet only 9 percent of
the respondents felt they had a lot of
control over their information and 50
percent said they had little or no control over their data.
Since its 1998 inception, Google
has built a stable of popular products
that funnel valuable and sensitive
information about the people
using them. Besides its dominant
search engine, the Mountain View
company also runs the YouTube video
site, the Chrome browser, Gmail,
Google Maps and the Android operating system for mobile devices.

Hollywood dipping toes

Virtual reality is creeping into our
world. Once seen as a tool for alienblasting gamers, movie studios, television producers and artists are now
adopting the technology, which
immerses people in faraway realms
using bulky goggles, house-sized
domes and smartphones. Entering a
virtual world means that users who
look left, right, up or behind experience an alternate environment, even
when theyre sitting in a theater or on a

Cole mows down Giants as Pirates win 4-3


By Janie McCauley
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO Out of nowhere came


the fan, a large man in an old-school Barry
Bonds Pirates jersey entering Gregory
Polancos space at the right-field wall.
The fan and the outfielder both reached,
and neither came up with the ball.
Pittsburgh manager Clint Hurdle requested a

replay review and, after 2 minutes, 17 seconds, Polanco was credited with the putout
in the eighth inning of a 4-3 victory
against the San Francisco Giants on
Monday night.
He hit me all over, Polanco said, gesturing to his hand and the left side of his face.
He said, Im very sorry. I said, Its OK,
man. Hes trying to catch the ball, too. He
wants the ball. It was strange. He was right

there and I didnt see him before.


Gerrit Cole struck out nine in seven
innings to win his third straight start and
take a share of the majors wins lead, while
Neil Walker hit a tiebreaking two-run double
in the fifth after two called strikeouts.
Andrew McCutchen had two likely hits
stolen by great plays in the outfield as he
settled instead for sacrifice flies against
Ryan Vogelsong (4-3).

Cole (8-2) struck out the side in order in


the fourth, then worked a 1-2-3 fifth before
loading the bases with no outs in the sixth.
He got out of it with a strikeout of Brandon
Belt and inducing Brandon Crawfords

Athletes of the Week

With Sacred Heart Preps enrollment registering just under 300 boys, multi-sport athletes are a necessity in order for the small
Atherton private schools athletics to thrive.
Thrive they have, as Saturdays Central
Coast Section Division II championship
game victory marked the third CCS title for a

SHP boys team this school year. Lady Gators


teams added two more.
Insofar as the baseball team is concerned,
the championship was the programs first
title ever. This on the heels of the SHP football team scoring a program first as well.
While the gridiron Gators earned their third
consecutive CCS title, and the programs
fourth all-time, they punctuated their undefeated season with their first ever Open

Division championship.
Seven multi-sport athletes played for both
the football and baseball teams. And all seven
were quintessential components to the success of both teams. For their efforts, the San
Mateo Daily Journal has named as Athletes of

aseball and softball, at their


most basic level, is the same.
Its all about throwing the ball,
catching the ball and hitting the ball.
Its the nuances of each game, however,
that is difference between the two. Smallball rules softball and when it comes to,
ahem, bending the rules, softball is completely different than baseball.
During the Hillsdale softball teams 111 loss to Mitty in the seminals of the
Central Coast Section Division II tournament, I couldnt help but notice a couple
Mitty baserunners on second base,
unabashedly signaling location to the
batter: the arm extended in front for pitches inside to a right-handed hitter and an
arm extended behind for pitches outside.
I was stunned to
see baserunners so
blatantly relaying
signals. I wondered
why Hillsdale pitcher Eryn McCoy didnt stick a pitch in
someones ribs. At
the highest levels
of baseball, stealing signs and tipping pitches and
location are part of
the game.
But if an offending team gets caught, it
will pay.
In softball, however, its part of the
game.
[Softball] is completely different than
baseball, said Bill Smith. Your experience is watching pitchers brushing back
batters (when seeking retaliation). Its
not illegal. In baseball its not illegal,
but its going to cost you. Its routine
(in softball) to see runners at second base
with an arm out. Ive had [arguments]
with umps about it. Im not going to
debate if its bush (league) or not. Its
wrong.
Smith, the longtime Burlingame High
School tennis coach, has also spent as
long coaching and training softball players. His daughter, Allison, was one of the
best players on the Peninsula during her
time with the Panthers. Coach Smith
trained his daughter and coached summer
ball at the highest levels, most notably
the West Bay now Cal Nuggets.

Close to being cleared, Klay returns to practice

just waiting on final clearance from doctors
under the NBAs concussion protocol to play
in Game 1 against the Cleveland Cavaliers

Team doctors initially cleared Thompson to
return to the game. He ended up not playing,
and the team said he started developing
symptoms after the game.
Thompsons father, former NBA player
Mychal Thompson, had to drive his son
home because he was feeling ill including
vomiting a couple of times. He also needed

stitches on his right ear after the hit caused


blood to spill down the side of his head.
It looked much worse than it was,
Thompson said. Honestly, I only had one
tough night, and that was the night of the
game. I just had a headache until I went to
sleep. But I woke up the next morning feeling all right. I got a good breakfast and I felt
great, honestly. It was just that night of the
game that my head was just a little shook.

The senior closed out his Cal career with a
three-pitch outing, inducing a double-play
grounder to retire the side.
But A&M reliever Kyle Simonds closed
out the game with his second hitless inning,
sending the Aggies to the Super Regional.

To be honest, I think having multiplesport

playing a sport in between or at all.
Football head coach Pete Lavorato, who

never seen a single school year with the
depth as this years class.
Our football team, I think it was our best

what a turnaround, but I wasnt surprised. Two
reasons: one, those kids are just great kids,
and Anthony Granato is just a neat guy.
The baseball team didnt look as sharp early

through six innings of work. Martella played a

The other five led the comeback rally in

had four of its seven advance. The Pac-12,
which had six teams make the tournament,
wont be represented in super regionals for
the first time in the 17 years of the current
tournament format.
Winners of the best-of-three super regionals go to the College World Series in
Omaha, starting June 13.
Matchups Friday through Sunday: Florida
State (44-19) at Florida (47-16), Virginia
Commonwealth (40-23) at Miami (47-15),
Missouri State (48-10) at Arkansas (38-22)
and Maryland (42-22) at Virginia (37-22).
Series Saturday through Monday:
Louisiana-Lafayette (42-21) at LSU (51-10),
defending national champion Vanderbilt
(45-19) at Illinois (50-8-1), Cal State
Fullerton (37-22) at Louisville (46-16) and
Texas A&M (49-12) at TCU (47-12).
National seeds typically are assured of
being on their home field for super regionals, but Missouri State must play at
Arkansas because of a scheduling conflict
with the minor league team that shares the
stadium with the Bears in Springfield,
Missouri.
Only three No. 1 national seeds have
failed to get out of regionals: Vanderbilt in
2007, Oregon State in 2014 and now UCLA.
The surprise team so far is Virginia
Commonwealth, which became the fifth No.
4 regional seed to reach super regionals
since the tournament went to its current format in 1999. The Rams lost seven of their
first 10 games and finished fourth in the
Atlantic 10.
Virginia, the 2014 national runner-up,
along with Maryland and LouisianaLafayette reached super regionals for the
second straight year, this time as No. 3
regional seeds.

OKLAHOMA CITY Lauren Haeger had a


home run and three RBIs against Michigan,
but what she didnt do Monday night could
play a more important role in Floridas championship hopes.
Haeger, the national player of the year, is
also her teams ace pitcher. After winning three
games at the Womens College World Series,
she got a break from the mound Monday, and
her teammates handled Michigan anyway.
Freshman Aleshia Ocasio and sophomore
Delanie Gourley combined to beat the
Wolverines 3-2 and put the Gators within one
win of a repeat national title.
Haeger threw 160 pitches against Auburn on
Sunday, so coach Tim Walton didnt want to use
her. He didnt need to. Ocasio went six innings
and gave up two runs to earn the win, and
Gourley got the save for the Gators (59-6).
First of all, Im just so proud of them,
Haeger said. They work so hard, just like I do.

GIANTS
Continued from page 11
was a very impressive performance from
start to finish, Hurdle said.
Belts two-run, two-out double in the first
put San Francisco ahead early in a rematch
of the NL one-game wild card won 8-0 by the
eventual champion Giants last October at
PNC Park.
The Pirates-clad fan was removed from the
stands after he leaned over the low fence and
prevented Polanco from catching Buster
Poseys ball.
How about the irony that the game has
and the guy had a Pirate jersey on. I dont
know if he thought he could make the catch
and hand it to Gregory or maybe help
Gregory, Hurdle said. It was the right call.
... Theres some depth to that guy out
there.
Hurdle tweaked his lineup to use lefty hitters high in the order with Polanco batting
second and Walker cleanup. Walker came in
7 for 16 against Vogelsong and delivered in
the fifth, leading Pittsburgh to its ninth win
in 11 games.
Center fielder Angel Pagan made a running, diving backhanded catch on
McCutchens third-inning drive. Pagan
hopped up and quickly released the throw.
Right fielder Hunter Pence robbed
McCutchen in the fifth, prompting the
slugger to raise his hands in a signal of disbelief.

They deserve what they did


tonight. Aleshia is amazing, Delanie is amazing,
and Ive told them the
whole time that Im going
to need them to have my
back this whole entire
tournament.
The teams will meet
again
Tuesday night in
Lauren Haeger
Game 2 of the best-ofthree championship series, and the
Wolverines likely will have to deal with a rested Haeger.
Michigan expected to see her Monday.
We prepared for her, Michigan coach Carol
Hutchins said. It was in the back of my mind
I knew it was possible they wouldnt start
her, but I dont coach their team. So we just had
to prepare, and ultimately, regardless of who is
pitching, we just need to have good at-bats and
see the ball. I thought we gave away a lot of atbats. We swung at a lot of their pitches.
Michigan (59-7) saw its 28-game win streak

snapped. The Wolverines hadnt lost since


April 3.
Haeger opened the scoring with a two-run
homer in the bottom of the first inning, her
third home run of the World Series. In her next
at-bat, she doubled in a run to give Florida a 30 lead in the third inning.
Michigans Abby Ramirez singled in the
sixth to score Olivia Richvalsky and Kelsey
Susalla and cut Floridas lead to 3-2.
Michigan had runners at first and third with
no outs in the seventh against Gourley, but did
not score. Sierra Romero, who walked to start
the inning, advanced to second on a passed
ball and reached third on Kelly Christners single. Susalla hit a ball hard to shortstop, and
Romero hesitated because she was unsure if the
fielder would try to throw her out at home.
Instead, Florida went for the double play, making it a missed opportunity for Michigan.
Gourley then struck out Lauren Sweet and
got Lindsey Montemarano to ground out to
end the game. It was Gourleys fifth save of
the season.

You kind of get used to seeing it. Pagan


made an unbelievable play, Pence made an
unbelievable play, Vogelsong said.
Cole, making his first career start in San
Francisco, allowed five hits and no earned
runs to improve to 3-0 against the Giants.
The right-hander is 12-2 with 120 strikeouts in 16 starts since Sept. 7 the most
wins in the majors in that stretch.
Nori Aoki scored on Pences groundout in
the eighth, then Mark Melancon finished
for his 14th save.
The Giants, coming off a 21-9 May, have
their first three-game losing streak since
dropping a season-high eight straight from
April 10-17.
Vogelsong lost for the first time in six
starts since a defeat to Los Angeles on April
29 at Dodger Stadium, and the Giants had
won each of the right-handers last five and
six of seven.
He went 4-0 with a 1.14 ERA in five May
starts.
Pittsburgh took two of three games in
both series the teams played in 2014. The
Giants have lost 11 of 16 overall to the
Pirates.

Williams tops Stephens; Sharapova out at French Open


By Howard Fendrich
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

PARIS For the third match in a


row at the French Open, Serena
Williams was oddly out of sorts at
the outset and dropped the opening
set.
And for the third match in a row,
almost as though this was the plan
all along, Williams righted herself
to pull out a victory.
In a riveting, two-hour showdown between the last two
American women in the draw, the
No. 1-ranked and No. 1-seeded
Williams was a game away from
defeat Monday, then came back to
beat Sloane Stephens 1-6, 7-5, 63.
Williams reached the quarterfinals and avoided joining defending
champion Maria Sharapova on the
way out of Roland Garros.
Its not how you start, I guess.
Its how you finish, Williams
said. Thats kind of how Im looking at it.
Close as it was, thanks in large

Ex-head of South American


soccer under house arrest
ASUNCION, Paraguay A judge
in Paraguay on Monday ordered
house arrest for the former president of the South American
Football Confederation amid a farreaching corruption scandal at
FIFA that has tarnished the image
of world soccers governing body.
Judge Humberto Otazu also said
that 86-year-old Nicolas Leoz is
expected to be released later in the
day from a hospital in the
Paraguayan capital where he is
being treated for high blood pressure. Leoz, who was president of
the federation, known as CONMEBOL, from 1986 to 2013, is
one of several former and current
top soccer officials named in a
FIFA corruption investigation.
In accordance with the seriousness of the case ... its prudent and

Thats because she is 10-0 in

Williams is 29-1 overall in 2015
and owns an 18-match Grand Slam
winning streak, including championships at the U.S. Open and
Australian Open that gave her 19
major singles trophies.
The 1999 U.S. Open, when she
collected her first major title, is the
only other time Williams came
back to win three straight matches
after losing the first set, according
to the WTA.

Stephens, defeated in the French

FIFA brief
Otazu told reporters outside the
hospital, adding that Leoz was not
sent to prison because under
Paraguayan law defendants over 70
years of age cannot be jailed pending a trial.
Last week, seven soccer officials were arrested in dawn raids at
a luxury Zurich hotel. The U.S.
Justice Department indicted 14
people on charges of bribery,
racketeering, money-laundering
and other charges. Among those in
custody was Leozs successor at
CONMEBOL and FIFA vice president and executive committee
member, Eugenio Figueredo of
Uruguay.
The Paraguayan foreign ministry has received a note from the
United States Embassy requesting
Leozs arrest and seeking his
extradition.

Opens fourth round for the fourth


consecutive year, why shes the
No. 1 player in the world.
Either Williams, in 2013, or
Sharapova, in 2012 and 2014, has
won the French Open the past three
years. Only Williams has a chance
to do it again on Saturday because
the second-seeded Sharapova was
outplayed throughout a 7-6 (3), 6-4
loss to 13th-seeded Lucie Safarova.
My opponent had a different
gear than I did, Sharapova said
after her earliest exit at Roland
Garros since 2010.
Sharapova did not use the cold
shes been dealing with as an
excuse, saying: I dont like to
talk about it, and I dont think it
really makes a difference.
In her first French Open quarterfinal, Safarova will face No. 21
Garbine Muguruza of Spain, who
beat No. 28 Flavia Pennetta of
Italy 6-3, 6-4.
On a day full of tennis biggest
names, the Big 4 of the mens
game Roger Federer, Novak
Djokovic, Rafael Nadal and Andy

Murray all won. The top-seeded


Djokovic and nine-time French
Open champion Nadal will play in
the quarterfinals Wednesday, a
rematch of last years final.
Nadal eliminated the last U.S.
man, Jack Sock, 6-3, 6-1, 5-7, 62, while Djokovic had no trouble
in a 6-1, 6-2, 6-3 win over Richard
Gasquet.
Federer needed about an hour to
finish his 6-3, 4-6, 6-4, 6-1 victory over Gael Monfils in a match
suspended because of darkness
after the second set Sunday. Federer
next faces Swiss Davis Cup teammate Stan Wawrinka, and Murray
will play 2013 French Open runner-up David Ferrer.

Thompson has been concussed. He


said his first concussion came during his freshman year of high
school.
I knew it wouldnt take me more
than a few days to get back to normal, Thompson said. The last
one I got was worse than the one I
got last week. To me, I think it was
mild. It wasnt real severe. But its
perfect timing having a week off
to get fully healthy.
Thompson missed practices
Friday and Saturday and the team
was off Sunday, when he sat in the
stands at the Coliseum watching
the Oakland Athletics beat the
New York Yankees 3-0. He had
done some running and shooting
before going through every part of
Mondays practice, including a
five-on-five scrimmage.
Teammates said he looked great,
and they didnt miss a chance to
tease Thompson for his always
stoic demeanor.
Hard to tell, Warriors center
Andrew Bogut joked, Pre- and
post-concussion symptoms, hes
the same.
Warriors coach Steve Kerr reiterated he believes Thompson will
start in Game 1. He had said
Saturday that he had not even been

Thompson said he passed initial
concussion tests and felt fine,
including during his interview on
the ESPN broadcast. He said doctors told him it was common for
symptoms to show up later after
another test confirmed the concussion.
It might have been because of
my adrenaline. I was so excited
because we played so well, he
said. Honestly, I felt great
through the celebration and everything. And then a couple hours
after the game I just had a little
headache and felt a little woozy.
He said Ariza told him after the
game the hit wasnt intentionally
and Thompson didnt think it
was, either. He said he has watched
the play a few times.
I was trying to get a shot fake
up and then trying to go by him.
Its just unfortunate when I was

having defeated her in the 2013
Australian Open quarterfinals.
Before taking the court Monday,
Stephens shared a moment in the
hallway with her coach, Nick
Saviano. They bumped fists, and
he patted her on the right shoulder.
When play began, Stephens won
the first two games without the

Williams kept right on missing,

Soccer beats out baseball in game of U.S.-Cuban detente Bulls to introduce


Hoiberg as coach
By Anne-Marie Garcia
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

HAVANA In a landmark act of sports


diplomacy, soccers New York Cosmos on
Tuesday will become the first U.S. professional team to play in Cuba since Presidents
Raul Castro and Barack Obama announced
their countries would re-establish diplomatic relations.
Soccers popularity is growing in both
baseball-crazy nations and Cuban officials
said the friendly match against the countrys national team would be an important
step in the normalization of the relationship between the U.S. and Cuba.
In this new era that our two countries are
living, this game is another link that will
help establish the relations announced by
the two presidents, said Antonio Garces,
vice president of the Cuban Soccer
Association.
While the two governments have yet to
reopen embassies following the December
announcement of detente, Havana has been
flooded by a surge of U.S. tourists as well as
delegations of lawmakers, business executives and athletes.
A group of retired NBA stars held a training camp for Cuban players in April, and
Cuban officials have said a U.S. professional baseball exhibition game is planned for

NEWARK, N.J. New Jersey general
manager Ray Shero has reached into his ties

Devils next head coach, John Hynes, a person with knowledge of the hiring told The
Associated Press on Monday night.
Shero has chosen the WilkesBarre/Scranton coach to run the once-proud
team that has failed to make the playoffs the
past three seasons.
The person spoke on condition of
anonymity because the team did not confirm
the hiring. The team plans to introduce the

officials have said no
plans have been made.
The Cosmos, who are
leading the standings in
the second-tier North
American Soccer League,
arrived Sunday night and
trained Monday afterWalter
noon ahead of the next
Restrepo
days match at 30,000seat Pedro Marrera stadium, which is to be
televised nationally in Cuba.
Im happy that we came here to play soccer and unite two countries, Cosmos midfielder Walter Restrepo said. The people
have really welcomed us, with high expectations for the game.
Garnering much attention in Cuba were
former Real Madrid star and current Cosmos
player Raul Gonzalez and the teams honorary president Pele, the legendary
Brazilian star who played for the original
Cosmos franchise as his career was ending.
I never imagined that Cuba against the
Cosmos would happen. And to think Raul
and Pele would come to Cuba, nobody
thought that, fan Yosbani Fuentes said.
Asked about the bribery scandal that
exploded last week in soccers global governing body, Pele declined to criticize FIFA

or its head, Sepp Blatter.


We are players and we want to provide
joy to the public and people. What happens
with executives doesnt interest me, Pele
said. Hes a man who has been there 25
years. You have to respect him.
While Cuba is far from a soccer powerhouse, the sport hasnt been spared the
waves of departures that have robbed its
teams of many top-ranked athletes. Forward
Maykel Galindo left in 2005 and went on to
play for several U.S. teams. Midfielder
Osvaldo Alonso abandoned Cuba two years
later and now plays in Seattle.
Cubas relatively weak international soccer performance hasnt stopped the sport
from spreading on the island, with growing
numbers watching professional games on
television and playing on dusty fields and
neighborhood streets.
Soccer is a peoples sport thats gained a
lot of popularity in recent years, in Cuba
and the United States, and without a doubt
itll help tear down barriers and open
doors, Garces said.
The last professional U.S. soccer team to
visit Cuba was the now-defunct Chicago
Sting, which played in 1978 after President
Jimmy Carter sought to improve relations
with Cuba and opened the interests section

CHICAGO The Mayor is moving to


Chicago.
The Bulls plan to introduce Iowa States
Fred Hoiberg as their new coach on Tuesday,
a person familiar with the situation told The
Associated Press.
Hoiberg had long been rumored as the
replacement for Tom
Thibodeau, who was fired
last week after five seasons in Chicago. The
person spoke to the AP
on Monday night on
condition of anonymity
because the contract had
not been finalized.
The Bulls said in a
Fred Hoiberg
release they would make
a major announcement on Tuesday.
Hoiberg went 115-56 with the Cyclones,
including four straight NCAA Tournament
appearances and back-to-back Big 12 tournament titles. He had open-heart surgery in April.
Before flying to Chicago to speak with
the Bulls, Hoiberg acknowledged that several NBA teams had approached him about
their vacancies in recent years.
When this opportunity came about, this
was something that interested me greatly,
Hoiberg said. One of my life goals is to
coach in that league.
Hoiberg grew up in Ames and earned the
nickname The Mayor while starring for
the Cyclones in the 1990s.
Hoiberg joins a team that entered last season
with championship aspirations with Derrick
Rose back from his latest knee injury and Pau
Gasol in the lineup after signing last summer,
only to come up short. The Bulls struggled
through injuries to win 50 games and got

Burlingame baseball manager
Shawn Scott was surprised to hear
that location tipping in softball
was so blatant. Scott, who reached
the Triple A level in the Toronto

level, a batter would get plunked

He said he never teaches that to

High school pitchers dont hit
their spots enough to pitch

Instead, Scott said, he will
appeal to an opposing coachs

a few years ago he quietly confronted an opposing manager
when he suspected the opponent of
tipping pitches. Scott essentially
shamed the opposing manager

from a mentality of knowing there

Its just not the players. Tipping
pitches is so commonplace and
accepted, you can hear it from the

read: parents will yell out to a
batter where the catcher is setting
up. And like the players, they relay
this information with no discretion.
From the stands, there is a
nomenclature (that goes with the
game of softball), smith said.
[When you hear] Go with it,
means the catcher is setting up outside. Turn on it, means the ball is
inside.
Smith said about the only way to
combat it is to switch up the signals the pitcher and catcher use. He
said a common practice is to
essentially ip the location. So
when a catcher calls for an outside
pitch and sets up out there, she will
at the last second reposition herself for an inside pitch.
It behooves the battery or even
the coach to discreetly inform the
home-plate umpire of their plan,
so he or she is not surprised by a
pitchs placement.
In the end, Smith said teams
simply arent upset by the practice.
Mostly, Smith said, coaches
should at least try to teach their
players to keep their signals on
the down low.
A lot of them are just trying to

Government cancer study will test precision medicine


By Marilynn Marchione
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CHICAGO The federal government is


launching a very different kind of cancer
study that will assign patients drugs based
on what genes drive their tumors rather than
the type.
The National Cancer Institutes NCIMATCH trial will be a massive precision
medicine experiment at more than 2,400
sites around the country.
Starting in July, about 3,000 patients
will have their tumor genes sequenced to see
what mutations or pathways fuel their disease. About 1,000 patients whose tumor
characteristics most closely match one of
the 20 or so gene-targeting drugs offered in
the study will be put into groups of about 30
patients to get that drug.
The goal is really to try to get the information faster, so when we see responses we
can expand rapidly and offer the drug more
widely, said Dr. Douglas Lowy, the Cancer
Institutes acting director.
Details of the study were revealed Monday
at an American Society of Clinical

Oncology conference in Chicago.


It is based on the growing realization that
many cancers share the same gene mutations or pathways to grow. So a drug that
targets one of these for a specific cancer,
such as breast, may work against other
types, such as lung.
Were getting to the lowest common
denominator of a cancer, said Dr. Otis
Brawley, chief medical officer of the
American Cancer Society, which has no role
in the study but praised the effort. You
might end up with 30 people, all with different kinds of cancer, getting the same
drug.
Those eligible for the study will be adults
with tumors or lymphomas worsened or
spread despite at least one standard treatment. Fresh biopsies will be taken and sent
to the University of Texas MD Anderson
Cancer Center in Houston for quality
checks, then sent to one of four labs around
the country that will sequence the DNA.

Cancer treatments gentler, yet kids survival improved


By Marilynn Marchione
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CHICAGO The move to make


cancer treatments gentler for children
has paid a double dividend: More kids
are surviving than ever before, and
without the long-term complications
that doomed many of their peers a generation ago, new research shows.
Radiation and chemotherapy have
saved countless children from
leukemia and other types of cancer,
but some of these treatments can damage the heart or other organs, problems that prove fatal years later.
In the 1990s, a push began to try to
prevent these late effects by giving
smaller, more targeted doses of radiation, avoiding certain drugs and
changing the way chemo is given. But

doctors worried: Would gentler treatments hurt a childs survival odds?


The new study, which tracked more
than 34, 000 childhood cancer survivors over several decades, gives a
happy answer: No.
Survival continued to improve,
even with scaled-back treatments. And
fewer kids died from second cancers or
heart or lung problems 15 years after
their initial treatment ended.
The field needs good news and this
study gives it, said Dr. Greg
Armstrong of St. Jude Childrens
Research Hospital in Memphis,
Tennessee. He leads the Childhood
Cancer Survivor Study, funded by the
National Cancer Institute.
We have actually reduced treatment,
reduced therapy, and yet improved
survival, he said.

Results were discussed Sunday at an


American Society of Clinical
Oncology conference in Chicago.
Treating childhood cancer is one of
the miracles of modern medicine,
Armstrong said. Fifty years ago less
than 30 percent of kids would survive
childhood cancer but now we know
that over 80 percent will.
That high success rate allowed doctors in the 1990s to scale back certain
treatments for certain types of
patients to try to spare them late
effects. The study compared survival
odds before and after that change.
Researchers found that the death
rate 15 years after treatment ended
kept declining, from about 12 percent
for those treated from 1970-74 to 6
percent for those treated from 199094.

three years as chief and is credited with


merging the Belmont, Foster City and San
Mateo fire departments. Healy started in
1983 as a volunteer firefighter with Foster
City and has served the town of
Hillsborough as well as Union City before
being appointed as San Mateos deputy fire
chief in 2008.
The men share a sense of civic duty, passion for their jobs as well as families, and
have participated in national and regional
emergency response teams.
San Mateos City Manager Larry
Patterson and Mayor Maureen Freschet
joked about the fire chiefs responsibilities
since the three departments opted to share
administrative staff and truck services.
Were so grateful for your dedication,
your hard work and your many contribu-

tions to the citizens of San Mateo as well as


Foster City and Belmont. We all know
youve had the very difficult task of reporting to three bosses and overseeing three
departments. A job that requires a great deal
of patience, collaboration, fortitude and
most certainly, a great sense of humor,
Freschet said to Keefe before recollecting
having known Healy as a child.
In John I see the strong values, respect
for others and commitment to his service
instilled by his parents. Im delighted that
John has been appointed as our new fire
chief and even more delighted that he lives
in San Mateo County, Freschet said. His
deep roots in our community will benefit
the fire department and citizens of San
Mateo, Belmont and Foster City. Theres
no doubt we are in good, capable hands.

Keefe, whos worked aside Healy for


years, agreed adding, I just know were in
great shape. We have great leaders in the
organization at every rank. So itll be great
for me to look back and watch what happens as the organization continues to grow
itself.
Being sure to acknowledge the sacrifices
their families have made, Healy and Keefe
thanked their wives and children for allowing them to dedicate their lives to the job.
With Thursday marking his last official
day, Keefe said hes looking forward to
retirement for one main reason.
Mostly, spending time with my family.
Probably the downside, if any, of the fire
service is that we miss a lot of birthdays
and holidays and time with family, Keefe
said. So Im thrilled just to go home.

dust control, Mulyono-Danre said.


We heavily encourage commercial users
to use recycled water, she said.
Residential users will have to get the
recycled water from a tank at the corporation yard at Broadway and Chestnut
Street.
Regina Kipp was one of the first residents
to take the training and her husband was the
very first to get free water last week.
Kipp said filling up big containers is the
way to go.
The problem is, if you come with a 5-gallon container it will take you forever, Kipp
said about accessing the 300 gallons each
resident can use a day.
Shes graduated to 55-gallon drums and is

even looking to buy a 275-gallon container.


She uses the water for her plants.
Kipp, who helps put on the citys annual
Fourth of July celebration, has encouraged
city officials to set up a booth at this summers event to promote the program.
I think the program is really fantastic
and other cities should do it, Kipp said.
Redwood City Councilman Ian Bain said
the city could expand the program even
more and that selling recycled water to nearby cities is also feasible.
He has also installed large rain barrels in
his yard and encourages others to do the
same.
The city has invested in the infrastructure

to provide graywater for landscaping and


Bain hopes it will expand west toward
Emerald Hills and the golf course.
We need to start with the biggest water
users first, Bain said about expanding the
program.
Many of the new buildings downtown will
be dual plumbed so recycled water can be
used for window washing or other purposes
if the state approves the use.

Were hoping that a substantial minority of the patients that are tested will actually have rare or uncommon cancers so more
can be learned about what genes fuel them,
Lowy said.
The study will be headed by Dr. Keith
Flaherty at Massachusetts General
Hospital.
Dr. Richard Pazdur, cancer drugs chief at
the Food and Drug Administration, warned
that although everyone hopes that target-

ing drugs to gene mutations will improve


survival, this may be far more complex
than we realize.
The FDA has never approved a drug that
was not aimed at a specific tumor type such
as breast cancer, but if a drug shows promise for a particular pathway involved in
many tumor types, it could be approved for
that use, he said.
Also on Monday, the oncology society
discussed details of a study it will launch for

patients with advanced cancers who lack


treatment options now. It will offer
patients off label access to various drugs
already used for other tumor types or purposes, and collect information on how they
fare.
So far, AstraZeneca, Bristol-Myers
Squibb, Eli Lilly and Company, Genentech
and Pfizer have agreed to provide at least 13
drugs, which will be free to study participants.

Study: Cancer patients may be spared brain radiation


By Marilynn Machione
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CHICAGO A major study could


change care for many of the hundreds of thousands of people each
year who have cancer that spreads
to the brain from other sites.
Contrary to conventional wisdom,
radiation therapy to the whole
brain did not improve survival, and
it harmed memory, speech and
thinking skills, doctors found.
This is the classic question:
Which is worse, the disease or the
treatment? said one study leader,
Dr. Jan Buckner of the Mayo
Clinic. Radiation helped control
the cancer, but at the cost of cognitive decline.
For patients, the study is not
necessarily the bad news it may
seem. It shows that in this case,
quality of life is better with less
treatment, and many people can be
spared the expense and side effects
of futile care.
It was one of three studies discussed Sunday at an American
Society of Clinical Oncology conference in Chicago that question
longstanding ways that patients
are treated. A study found that
removing lymph nodes when oral
cancers are first diagnosed not
routinely done now dramatically
improves survival. Another found
the opposite was true for people
with the skin cancer melanoma that
had spread to a few lymph nodes.
The first study affects the most
patients by far. An estimated
400,000 patients in the United
States alone each year have cancer
that spreads to the brain, usually
from the lungs, breast or other
sites.
That is different from tumors that
start in the brain, like the one that
just killed Joseph R. Beau Biden
III, the vice presidents son.
Cancer that spreads to the brain

Cancer that spreads to the brain is usually treated with radiosurgery highly focused radiation with a tool such
as the Gamma Knife, followed by less intense radiation to the whole brain. The latter treatment can cause hair
loss, dry mouth, fatigue and thinking problems.
is usually treated with radiosurgery
highly focused radiation with a
tool such as the Gamma Knife, followed by less intense radiation to
the whole brain. The latter treatment can cause hair loss, dry
mouth, fatigue and thinking problems.
Dr. Paul Brown of the University
of Texas MD Anderson Cancer in
Houston led a study of 213
patients with one to three tumors
in the brain to see whether the
risks of whole brain radiation were

worth its help in controlling cancer.


Half of the patients had the usual
radiosurgery and the rest had that
followed by whole brain radiation.
Three months later, 92 percent of
patients who got both treatments
had cognitive decline versus 64
percent of those given just radiosurgery.
The negative effects far outweigh any benefits of the combo
treatment, Brown said.
Doctors probably will use the

combo less frequently because of


this study, but certain patients still
may benefit from it, said Dr.
Andrew Lassman of Columbia
University and New YorkPresbyterian Hospital. The work
should spur research on different
ways to give radiation that may not
harm thinking skills as much.
The other two studies involved
when to remove lymph nodes, a
place where cancer often spreads.
Nodes help drain fluid throughout
the body, and removing them

t1IBSNBDJTUTPO%VUZ

 


leaves patients vulnerable to a host


of complications,
including
painfully swollen limbs, infections and nerve damage.
Dr. A.K. DCruz of Tata Memorial
Hospital in Mumbai, India, led a
study of 500 patients with oral cancer, usually tumors of the lips,
tongue or mouth. Theyre very
common in the United States as
well as India and other countries
where alcohol and tobacco use is
high.
Half of the patients in the study
had neck lymph nodes removed at
the same time they had surgery to
remove the oral cancer. The rest had
the cancer removed but not their
nodes. Nine months later on average, researchers saw that removing
the nodes cut the risk of death during the study by 36 percent and the
risk of having cancer come back by
55 percent.
For every eight patients whose
nodes were removed, two cancer
recurrences and one death were prevented.
This one-and-done approach to
surgery should be done for all
patients, said Dr. Jyoti Patel, a
spokeswoman for the oncology
society.
In the melanoma study, about
500 people in Germany with skin
cancers on the legs, arms or trunk
that had spread minimally to nearby lymph nodes were either given
additional surgery to remove
lymph nodes or just observed.
Survival rates were comparable
three years later, meaning the additional surgery was not worth the
risk of its side effects.
Some doctors predicted the study
would change care; others said they
would wait to see if a second study
underway now reaches the same
conclusion. In any case, its worth
a discussion between patients considering the operation, doctors
said.

schools, as well as regional occupation and special education programs.
Ng said Rosas experience running
such programs could be considered the
equivalent to managing a small school
district, which gave members of the
board confidence she would be able to
handle the responsibility of directing
the elementary school district.
Rosas also has experience developing innovative education programs
which will serve her well as the elementary school district looks to
expand some of its creative curriculum,
said Ng.
One of the greatest, and most immediate, challenges Rosas will face as
head of the district, should her
appointment be finalized, will be navigating the difficulties presented by
the districts increasing enrollment
and shifting demographics, said Ng.
During the same meeting her selection is to be made official, trustees will
receive a presentation from the group
charged with deciding how to shuffle
district classrooms and properties to
accommodate a student body expected
to grow in coming years.
The board ultimately will need to

VETERANS
Continued from page 1
Slocum is the only veteran on the
five-person board. He joined the Army
in 1966 and served in Vietnam.
The commission will put a spotlight
on vets and their various needs including housing, mental health and basic
health care, Slocum said.
The board is expected to adopt a resolution Tuesday to form the commission. The county also has formed commissions on aging and disabilities
that focus on policy and issues related
to those populations.
The county conducted a study last
year to identify and address the needs
of local veterans.
The study showed that many veterans have stable employment, housing
and social support while others need
additional support to access benefits
and safety net services, mental and
behavioral health services and affordable housing.
The studys findings include:

decide whether to pursue a bond measure, which could be used to purchase


property to build more elementary
school classrooms in Foster City, as
well as adding additional space for students to existing middle school and
elementary campuses in both communities.
Should the board elect to move forward with floating a bond measure to
voters in the fall election, they would
need to approve it prior to an August
deadline.
Amidst the process of finding additional classrooms, the officials must
also consider the size and scope of a
neighborhood elementary school that
would serve the North Central community in San Mateo.
It is expected that the district will
build a school to serve roughly 250
More than half of the veterans in
the county are age 65 or older. This
demographic reported the need for
assistance in accessing civilian and
veterans benefits;
While 95 percent of veterans are
male, a higher percentage of younger
veterans are female close to 20 percent of veterans ages 18-34 and close
to 10 percent of veterans ages 35-54 in
the county. Women veterans reported
the need for additional services targeted to them and increased awareness by
all veteran-serving agencies of the
issues specifically confronting them;
Veterans are overrepresented in the
countys homeless population, comprising approximately 12 percent of
its homeless population, while comprising only 6 percent of its overall
adult population; and
With San Mateo County being one
of the least affordable housing markets
in the state, access to affordable housing was commonly identified as a need
by veterans who were consulted for the
study.
The veterans commission would
promote programs and policies that

Mandarin immersion program.
Officials are not likely to consider
relocating the Mandarin immersion
program, as many parents of students
at the successful and popular school
had expressed disdain for the proposal
to move the program to the currently
vacant Knolls Elementary School.
Ng said Rosas has been present in
the community outreach process leading up to the board deciding the vision
of district facilities, and said many of
the capacity concerns existed during
her previous tenure.
We have all these things in play
right now, and she will be able to hit
the ground running, said Ng.
Details of the contract for Rosas are
still in negotiation, and are expected
to be announced should her selection
be confirmed.
Ng said she believes due to the
extensive experience Rosas has, that
she will be the right person to lead the
district going forward.
She is the real deal, the total package, said Ng. She will be a great

address the unmet needs of veterans
and put a focus on expanding outreach
to veterans who are seniors so they
have better access to benefits and services. Another priority of the commission would be to bring greater recognition and visibility to issues that disproportionately impact women veterans, such as military sexual trauma and
the lack of services addressing their
needs. It would develop policy recommendations to help increase access to
affordable housing for veterans and
recommend initiatives to provide
emergency or transitional shelter and
services for homeless vets.
The commission is expected to have
nine members that will be appointed
by the Board of Supervisors to serve
three-year terms.

NOTICE OF PETITION TO
ADMINISTER ESTATE OF
Donald Allan Banks
Case Number: 125704
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or estate, or both, of: Donald Allan Banks. A
Petition for Probate has been filed by
Steven James Banks in the Superior
Court of California, County of San Mateo.
The Petition for Probate requests that
Steven James Banks be appointed as
personal representative to administer the
estate of the decedent.
The petition requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent
Administration of Estates Act. (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval. Before taking certain
very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to
give notice to interested persons unless
they have waived notice or consented to
the proposed action.) The independent
administration authority will be granted
unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good
cause why the court should not grant the
authority.
A hearing on the petition will be held in
this court as follows: June 24, 2015 at
9:00 a.m., Superior Court of California,
County of San Mateo, 400 County Center, Redwood City, CA 94063.
If you object to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing
and state your objections or file written
objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person
or by your attorney.
If you are a creditor or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your
claim with the court and mail a copy to
the personal representative appointed by
the court within the later of either (1) four
months from the date of first issuance of
letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the
California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days
from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under section

IS fighters revamp
recruitment, with
savvy broadcasts
By Lori Hinnant
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

PARIS The announcer with an


American accent offers an upbeat
roundup of the days main headlines: Islamic State fighters
seized control of a crucial Syrian
city, extremists repelled Kurdish
fighters
despite
coalition
airstrikes, and two suicide
bombers successfully carried out
their missions.
The tone is National Public
Radio in the United States. But
this is Al-Bayan, the Islamic State
radio targeting European recruits
by touting recent triumphs in the
campaign to carve out a Caliphate,
and it represents a major headache
for Western powers trying to curtail the IS influence.
All news is good news for AlBayans
soldiers
of
the

Caliphate. In this narrative, the


enemy always flees in disgrace or
is killed. The broadcasts end with
a swell of music and a gentle
English message: We thank our
listeners for tuning in.
The tension between the
smooth, Western-style production
and the extremist content shows
how far the hardcore Islamic propaganda machine has come since
2012, when an aging Frenchman
posed in front of a jihadi flag and
threatened France in the name of
al-Qaida in the Islamic Maghreb.
The footage was grainy, with minimal production values, and
released on a relatively obscure
website. By contrast, Al-Bayan
reaches thousands of listeners
every day via links shared on
social networks, helping to swell
the ranks of Westerners projected this year to reach up to

REUTERS

A policeman carries out an inspection after a car exploded near a mosque in Saudi Arabias Dammam.
10,000 fighting for the Islamic
State group in Syria and Iraq.
In the time it took to bring the
Frenchman Gilles Le Guen to trial,
his European successors in violent jihad have overturned the
recruitment script in ways that
might impress a New York PR
agency.
Islamic State videos come with
thrumming beats, handsome clear-

eyed young men and editing techniques that call to mind tourism
commercials. A typical week of
recruitment now includes multiple
newscasts in three languages,
except the good news is about
suicide attacks instead of traffic
reports and baseball scores. A polished video directed at French
recruits shows trainees leaping
through burning hoops and

swinging across monkey bars


over flames. And a metastasizing
network of tweets spills forth
from the smartphones of armchair
cheerleaders.
Cameramen themselves are
heroes in this information war:
Media, an unnamed fighter says in
a video dedicated to these PR
muhajedeen, is half of the battle,
if not its majority.

Solar Impulse plane lands in Japan to wait out bad weather


By Mari Yamaguchi
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

TOKYO A solar-powered plane


attempting to circle the globe
without a drop of fuel made an
unscheduled landing late Monday
in Japan to wait out bad weather.
Swiss pilot Andri Borschberg
took off from Nanjing, China, on
Sunday on what was to be the

longest leg of the journey, a sixday, 5,079-mile flight to Hawaii.


Instead, the Solar Impulse 2 made
an unscheduled visit in central
Japan, and landed safely at the
Nagoya Airport.
Japanese Transport Ministry and
Nagoya airport officials said earlier
that they were arranging for the
landing to occur after the airports
usual closing hours to accommo-

date the plane with a wide


wingspan.
Live Internet feed on the organizers website showed crewmembers
in the control room applauding and
cheering
at
the
landing.
Borschberg, who emerged from the
cockpit with a full smile, was
mobbed by the projects ground
staff welcoming his safe arrival.
Bertrand Piccard, Initiator,

Chairman and Co-Pilot of Solar


Impulse 2, told the organizers live
feed, Solar Impulse TV that it was
unfortunate the weather turned bad
when the flight was going very
well. He said the plane will continue its journey to Hawaii when the
weather improves.
You know, its one of these
strange moments of life between
elation and disappointment, he

said. The team has achieved the


longest flight ever of a solar plane
going through the night, but the
front is too dangerous to cross ...
Its just the weather doesnt fit.
Everything we could do has been
done and was successful. What we
cannot control is the weather. So
we land in Nagoya, we wait for better conditions, and we continue,
he said.
