Firestorm coming to Millbrae school district

Teachers to take conflict resolution classes from independent firm to help resolve infighting
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Due to longstanding tension and strife

among colleagues, some teachers at Taylor
Middle School in Millbrae will be forced to
attend classes to learn how to better get
along, school district officials decided.
The Millbrae Elementary School District
Board of Trustees unanimously approved
hiring Firestorm, a conflict resolution firm,

during their board meeting Tuesday, June 16
to run the training sessions.
The company will be paid roughly
$40,000 to coordinate the lessons focused
on improving interpersonal relationships
in the teaching department that have worsened over the past decade, according to a
district report.
Its a training about how to help col-
leagues work together, and helping to

define a professional work environment,
said Superintendent Linda Luna.
Luna stressed the trainings, which will
begin over the summer, are not punishment
for the teachers, but are necessary to correct
a culture that has existed at the school for
too long.
Sometimes you have to get help to move
over this bump in the road, she said. I
think it is a positive thing.

School board President Lynn Ferrario
echoed those sentiments, and said she
hoped the training would ultimately help
the teachers serve the students in the best
possible manner.
We cant ignore giving help to the
school, she said. If we can better support

Officials
studying
toll lanes
Auxiliary, carpool lanes also
proposed for Highway 101
By Bill Silverfarb
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
SAMANTHA WEIGEL/DAILY JOURNAL
The heavy congestion and pitiful merges that mar

Highway 101 has spawned an idea to add toll lanes to solve
the problem although many local officials oppose it.
Bad traffic has prompted the City/County Association of
Governments to move forward with securing $16.5 million
in grants to study the feasibility of adding auxiliary, carpool and toll lanes to ease traffic on Highway 101.
The C/CAG board approved two resolutions Thursday,
June 11 to apply for Measure A highway funds to study

Beach bummer
San Mateos Marina Lagoon makes top 10 worst water quality list
By Samantha Weigel
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
For the third year in a row, San

Mateos Marina Lagoon has been
ranked one of the top 10 worst beaches
in the state for water quality while
Pillar Point Harbor, also a well-known
bacteria ridden locale, barely inched
off the statewide list.
Heal the Bay released its 25th annual
Beach Report Card Wednesday that
highlights a general improvement in
water quality throughout California; an
accomplishment that could be attrib-
uted to the drought. However, a few

local places are still marked by high
levels of bacteria prompting officials
to post signs warning swimmers to
stay dry.
San Mateos Marina Lagoon, specifically Aquatic and Lakeshore parks,
received a near year-round F making it the No. 4 spot on Heal the Bays
Top 10 Beach Bummers list.
We do [these report cards] because
we recognize the need to protect swimmer health and monitor a number of
locations throughout the West Coast
to prevent illness among swimmers,
surfers, all people who use the ocean

recreationally, said Heal the Bay
Spokesman Nick Colin.
Santa Cruzs Cowell Beach ranked
the worst in the state and San
Franciscos Candlestick Point came in
seventh, according to the report. Pillar
Point Harbor, which has long been
plagued by bacteria infested water,
showed improvement over the last
year by receiving only one F during
wet weather conditions, according to
the report.

thought was hilarious, he said. But
she did then say Yes and I had to tell
her this was the real Times crossword,
not something I had printed out

Hughes says she was dumbfounded

Woman pleads guilty to assaulting shopper

A woman who punched a fellow shopper at

the Colma Nordstrom Rack after she was told
to quiet her 2-year-old nephew pleaded guilty
Wednesday to felony assault and could avoid
jail time.
Terrie Vaiasaga Elzie, a 27-year-old San
Francisco resident, was facing up to seven
years in prison but opted to plea after being
caught on camera hitting Natalie Bree HajekRichardson in the malls parking lot Nov. 3,
according to prosecutors.
Elzie will return to court Aug. 4 for sentencing and her attorney William Johnston
said worst case, his client receives up to six
months in jail, which she may be able to
serve by participating in the Sheriffs
Offices work program.
She is a 27-year-old woman who has

never been in any kind of trouble ever before,
who overreacted to someone who was rude
and offensive, Johnston said. She
absolutely regrets the incident having
occurred.
The altercation started while the two
women were in Nordstrom Rack and Elzies
nephew began to cry because a toy was taken
away from him. Hajek-Richardson told Elzie
to quiet the child down, to which Elzie
responded she should mind her own business,
Hajek-Richardson then told her to go to
hell and after further exchange of angry
words, Elzie said shed meet her outside.
Elzie told authorities she simply wanted to
talk but decided she needed to do something after her nephew repeated what the
other woman said, according to prosecutors.

Once outside, Elzie asked Hajek-Richardson
where she should go. When the woman
allegedly replied again to hell, Elzie struck
in the face, knocking her to the ground where
she punched her once more, sat on her and
then left. Surveillance video caught the entire
fight, according to prosecutors.
Hajek-Richardson had blood fill her
mouth, suffered fractures of the bones at her
gum line and required several root canals,
Johnston said the victims injuries were
what contributed to the felony charge and as
part of the plea deal, the judge could consider
probation and possibly reducing the charge
to a misdemeanor at a later time.
Elzie remains out of custody on $50,000
bail.
Vigil planned for deacon Michael Murphy, who died hiking Mt. Shasta
Three off-duty Redding firefighters tried

desperately to clear the airway of San Carlos
resident Michael Murphy after he took a tragic fall while hiking Mt. Shasta, according to
KRCR Channel 7.
The three men saw Murphy, 57, slip and
tumble down the mountain nearly 2,000 feet
Thursday and performed an emergency tracheotomy on him with the assistance of two
doctors who were also hiking Mt. Shasta,
according to KRCR.
The group was able to keep Murphy alive
until a California Highway Patrol helicopter
arrived and airlifted him to Mercy Medical in
Redding, according to KRCR.
Murphy died, however, before he reached
the hospital.
The San Carlos resident
was 57. He is survived by

and mother Pat.

Educators celebrate more money for preschool

By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Early education advocates and local school

officials lauded the efforts of Gov. Jerry
Brown and lawmakers to increase spending to
expand access to preschool for children of
underprivileged families.
Brown and lawmakers struck a $115.4 billion budget deal Tuesday, which will offer billions more dollars to public schools throughout the state and increase spending on early
education.
The new budget deal, which is expected to
be officially approved prior to July 1,
includes $409 million more in spending on
early education programs, which will grant
greater access to preschool classes for nearly
15,000 students.
Jean-Marie Houston, director of early
learning support services at the San Mateo
County Office of Education, wrote in an email
the effort of lawmakers aligns with local
efforts to help as many young students as
possible attend preschool.
Armed men steal from

Taquerias patrons, cash register
Three men robbed a restaurant with guns
in unincorporated San Mateo County late
Tuesday night, sheriffs officials said.
Deputies responded at about 11:50 p.m.
to a report of an armed robbery in progress
at El Grullense II at 2940 Middlefield Road
in the North Fair Oaks neighborhood near
Redwood City, according to the sheriffs
office.
The three men wearing masks took the
property of three patrons and cash from the
register, sheriffs officials said.
The trio fled the restaurant west on
Berkshire Avenue toward Huntington
Avenue. At least two of the men had a gun,
according to the sheriffs office.
Deputies failed to find the suspects when
We are pleased that the legislature and

governor have strongly supported investments in early learning by expanding access
for families of low-income to quality preschool services, she said.
Roughly 5,000 more students would be
able to attend full-day preschool classes, and
more than 10,000 preschoolers would have
access to part-time programs, should the
budget be finalized, according to a report
from Early Edge California, an agency which
encourages expanding preschool services.
Deborah Kong, president of Early Edge,
celebrated the states effort to offer additional
money to children of families who need the
money most.
This budget proposal is a significant
investment that will go a long way toward
improving access to quality early childhood
education for our infants, toddlers and
preschoolers and supporting the caregivers
who educate and care for our children, Kong
wrote in a prepared statement.
Preschool is valuable to get young students
on track for academic and social success, and
those who have access to early education are

held back less and graduate at higher rates,
according to the organization.
Preschool can cost as much as $20,000
annually for some families, which can be cost
prohibitive for some low-income households
that are faced prioritizing a tight budget.
The fight for increased early education
access exists on a variety of fronts for different agencies.
Early Edge has also rallied support for the
Preschool For All act, authored by
Assemblyman
Kevin
McCarty,
DSacramento, which aimed to guarantee preschool for children from families who cannot
afford to pay for the programs.
And more than $4 million was granted to
four northern San Mateo County school districts to expand preschool opportunities for
young students through the Big Lift effort,
which is spearheaded by the county Office of
Education.
Houston said the grant program illustrates
the countys commitment to allowing as
many young students as possible to reap the
benefits of education opportunities.

Expanding access and improving quality
in early learning programs is an absolute and
necessary commitment that we pursue for all
young children, she said.
The county Office of Education has been
engaged in an agreement with the California
Department of Education to deliver preschool programs to local 3- and 4-year-old
children from low-income families, which
serves close to 800 students, according to
Houston.
As the states economic footing continues
to get better, Kong said her organization is
hopeful officials will show a commitment
going forward to young students.
As the economy improves, nothing is
more important than investing in our future,
she said.
But the current investment in preschool
students from the state aligns with the efforts
of local educators, said Houston.
This budget reflects a strong message that
quality early childhood education is a top priority one that we share.

Victim duped into

buying what suspect
claimed were expensive jackets
South San Francisco police are investigating a scam in which a suspect duped a
64-year-old San Bruno man into buying
what he claimed were very expensive
leather jackets at a discounted rate.
The victim was approached in a parking
lot in the 400 block of South Airport
Boulevard on Monday by the suspect, who
claimed to be a salesman from Italy who did
not want to transport the jackets back to
Europe and offered to sell them for 10 percent of their retail cost, police said.
The suspect came across as believable
and trustworthy, but the victim later determined the jackets were not what he claimed
them to be, according to police.
No other information about the suspect
in Mondays case was immediately available, but police said the scam is a common
one being perpetrated across the country.
Anyone with information about the case,
or similar instances of people offering to
sell merchandise in a public space, are
encouraged to call South San Francisco
police at (650) 877-8900.

building balcony collapse in Berkeley.
Balcony collapse tied to

rotted wooden beams
By Lisa Leff and Martha Mendoza
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
BERKELEY The balcony collapse that

killed six college students appears to have
been caused by rotted wooden beams,
Berkeleys mayor said Wednesday as the victims heartbroken loved ones began arriving
in the U.S. from Ireland.
Mayor Tom Bates said investigators
believe the wood was not caulked and sealed
properly at the time of construction and was
damaged by moisture as a result.
The crowded fifth-floor balcony broke off
an apartment building during a 21st-birthday
party early Tuesday held by visiting Irish
college students, dumping 13 people 50 feet
onto the pavement. In addition to the six
killed, seven were seriously hurt.
More than likely it was caused by rain and
caused by water damage that was done to the
support beams, Bates said. He said it was
obviously a bad idea for 13 people to
crowd onto such a small balcony it was
about 40 square feet but added that he is
not blaming the victims.
Later in the day, however, the mayor said
the water-damage theory was speculation on
his part and not an official conclusion, and
that the investigation is still underway.
Building inspectors also determined
another balcony at the Library Gardens
apartment complex was structurally unsafe
and presented a collapse hazard. They
ordered it demolished.
Two other balconies were red-tagged, or
declared off-limits, at the apartments, which
were completed in 2007 and are popular

among visiting students and those at the
nearby University of California, Berkeley.
Segue Construction, the Library Gardens
general contractor, was involved in two San
Francisco Bay Area lawsuits in recent years
involving allegations of dry rot and substandard balconies at condo and apartment
projects in Millbrae and San Jose. Among
other things, Segue was accused of improperly waterproofing balconies.
Both cases were settled in 2013 with
Segue, developers and other parties agreeing
to pay millions of dollars.
Segue spokesman Sam Singer said such litigation is common on large projects and
has no bearing on the tragedy in Berkeley.
They are completely different projects.
They are completely different types of balconies, he said. Singer said of the balcony
collapse: Segue Construction has never had
an incident like this in its history.
Cassandra Bujarski, a spokeswoman for
the apartments property management firm,
Greystar, had no comment.
Across the Atlantic, flags flew at half-staff
around Ireland and the countrys parliament

mourned the dead: Ashley Donohoe, 22, of
Rohnert Park, California, and Olivia Burke,
Eoghan Culligan, Niccolai Schuster, Lorcan

from Ireland.
They were in the prime of their lives,

California commission says

Uber driver is an employee
By Barbara Ortutay
NEW YORK A ruling in the case of a single Uber driver could have much broader
implications for the popular ride-hailing
service and for companies like it that rely on
workers they see as independent contractors
for on-demand services.
The California Labor Commission has
ruled that an Uber driver should be considered
a company employee, not an independent
contractor.
The driver, Barbara Ann Berwick, filed a
claim last year saying Uber owed her unpaid
wages and other expenses. Uber has long
contended that it is a technological platform
used by independent drivers and their passengers to arrange and pay for rides.
The commission, however, found that
Uber acted like an employer, and the driver,
like a delivery person for a pizza parlor, was
an employee. It awarded Berwick $4,152.20
in expenses and interest.
For Uber, a privately held company valued
at $40 billion, the case is

clearly not about the
money involved but
about what it could mean
for its long-term business model and how it is
regulated.
While Uber holds itself
out as nothing more
than a neutral technologBarbara
ical platform, it is in
Berwick
fact involved in every
aspect of the operation, the commission
said in its June 3 ruling, which was filed on
Tuesday.
San Francisco-based Uber stressed that the
ruling is non-binding and only applies to
one driver. It is also appealing the decision.
(It) is contrary to a previous ruling by the
same commission, which concluded in 2012
that the driver performed services as an
independent contractor, and not as a bona
fide employee. Five other states have also
come to the same conclusion, Uber said in a
statement.

Judge: Woman in Silicon Valley

gender suit liable for $276K
SAN FRANCISCO A woman who lost a
high-profile gender discrimination lawsuit
against a Silicon Valley venture capital firm
is liable for about a quarter of the roughly $1
million in legal costs the company is seeking, a judge said Wednesday in a tentative
ruling.

attorneys for plaintiff Ellen Pao and Kleiner
Perkins Caufield & Byers are due in court.

A jury in March found

that Kleiner Perkins did

Kleiner Perkins is seeking more than
$970,000 in legal costs from Pao, much of
it for experts the company called to testify
at trial. Paos attorneys have called the
amount excessive.
Kahn said the company is entitled to
$276,000.
The fees Kleiner Perkins is seeking should
be scaled down to reflect Paos more limited
financial resources, the judge said.

Can Marriage Exist Between
Science And Religion?

By Paul Larson
MILLBRAE
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.

Delivery by drone in 30
minutes? Amazon says its coming
WASHINGTON Borrowing a pizza delivery motto, online retail giant Amazon told
Congress Wednesday it is developing the
technology to use drones to deliver packages
in 30 minutes or less, a broad expansion of
unmanned flight that is raising concerns
about safety, security and privacy.
Using commercial drones to quickly deliver packages is probably years away. But

quickly, said Paul E. Misener, vice president
of global public policy for Amazon.com.

Carter: Iraqi training goal

to fall way short of recruits
By Deb Riechmann
WASHINGTON The U.S. will fall way

short of meeting its goal of training 24,000
Iraqi forces to fight Islamic State militants
by this fall, Defense Secretary Ash Carter
said Wednesday on Capitol Hill where lawmakers are already skeptical of the Obama
administrations strategy to address threats
in the Mideast.
Carter told the House Armed Services
Committee that the U.S. has received only
enough recruits to train about 7,000 in
addition to about 2,000 counterterrorism
service personnel.
Our training efforts in Iraq have thus far
been slowed by a lack of trainees. We simply havent received enough recruits,
Carter said at a nearly three-hour hearing.
Carter said the train-and-equip mission in
Syria also lacks enough trainees to fill
existing training sites, primarily because
its difficult to make sure the recruits are
people who can be counted on and are not
aligned with groups like IS.
It turns out to be very hard to identify
people who meet both of those criteria,
Carter said.
Later in the day, the House rejected a resolution to force Congress to debate an
Authorization for the Use of Military Force
for U.S. military engagement against IS in
Iraq and Syria.
The measure, which was defeated 288139, would have directed that U.S. troops be
withdrawn from the fight within 30 days of
passage or by the end of the year if

Obama determines an immediate withdrawal
is not safe if Congress failed to approve
a new authorization.
Democratic Rep. Jim McGovern of
Massachusetts said the resolution was needed to force Congress to do its job and vote
on an authorization. Opponents called the
measure dangerous, saying it could lead the
U.S. to walk away from the region, leaving it more unsettled.
There are no U.S. troops in Syria and
about 3,500 in Iraq assisting the nations
security forces.
The Iraqi military, which was equipped and
trained by the United States, has struggled
to recover from its collapse a year ago when
IS militants captured the countrys second
largest city, Mosul, and swept over much of
northern and western Iraq. Iraqi commanders
fled, pleas for more ammunition went unanswered, and in some cases soldiers stripped
off their uniforms and ran.
The U.S. is again training Iraqi forces and
conducting airstrikes in both Iraq and Syria.
The White House announced last week that it
was sending up to 450 more U.S. troops to a
new base in the Anbar province of western
Iraq, mainly to advise the Iraqis on planning
and execution of a counteroffensive to
retake Ramadi, the provincial capital. More
such U.S. hubs could be opened elsewhere in
Iraq as the campaign advances.

that the current strategy is weak and that it
could be strengthened by deploying U.S.

Congressional GOP plans to

WASHINGTON House Republican leaders are laying out a plan to temporarily continue health care subsidies for millions of

The approach would allow states to obtain
block grants to continue the aid. If states turn
down the grants, individuals could receive tax
subsidies directly as they do now.
The money would be used to shop for
health insurance in a reordered marketplace

carry insurance and most employers to offer

mounting rescue effort on trade

and top Republicans in Congress joined

Muslims worldwide to mark the

start of Ramadan on Thursday
By Abdullah Al-Shihri
and Aya Batrawy
RIYADH, Saudi Arabia Muslims

around the world will mark the start of
Ramadan on Thursday, a month of
intense prayer, dawn-to-dusk fasting
and nightly feasts.
Muslims follow a lunar calendar and
a moon-sighting methodology that
can lead to different countries declaring the start of Ramadan a day or two
apart. However, this year religious
authorities in Saudi Arabia, Egypt,
Iran, Indonesia and most other parts of
the world announced based on their
sightings of the moon that daily fasting would begin Thursday.
Authorities in Pakistan have yet to
announce the sighting of the moon.
During
Ramadan,
observant
Muslims abstain from eating and
drinking from sunrise to sunset for the
entire month. A single sip of water or a
puff of a cigarette is considered enough
to invalidate the fast.
The fast is intended to bring the
faithful closer to God and to remind
them of the suffering of those less fortunate. Muslims often give to charities
during the month, and mosques and aid
organizations organize free meals for
the public every night.
Fasting also is seen as a way to
physically and spiritually detoxify
through exercising self-restraint.
Sexual intercourse between spouses
also is off-limits during the day, while
Muslims also are encouraged to be
mindful of their behavior and to avoid
gossiping, cursing and quarreling.
This year, Ramadan falls during the

summer, which means long and hot
days of fasting. Mainstream scholars
advise Muslims in northern European
countries with 16 hours or more of daylight to follow the cycle of fasting of
the nearest Muslim majority nation to
them to avoid impossibly long hours
without food or water.
Chairwoman Pia Jardi at the Finnish
Muslim Union in Helsinki said
Muslims there will be fasting for 21
hours and have just three hours or
even less for eating, drinking and
prayer before the sun rises again.
The good thing is that youll eat
with moderation and that youll stick
very much into the true, simple spirit
of Ramadan, Jardi said. Long fasting
time means you rarely want to eat
heavily.

further complicate the ongoing
conflict in Yemen that pits Shiite
rebels known as Houthis and
breakaway army units against an
array of often rival forces, including local tribesmen, loyalists to
the exiled President Abed Rabbo
Mansour and al-Qaida militants.
The bombings came on the eve of
the holy month of Ramadan, when
radical Sunni militants around the
region often escalate their attacks
against Shiites, whom they view
as heretics.
Meanwhile
Wednesday,
airstrikes by a Saudi-led coalition
backing Hadi struck a convoy of
civilian vehicles in the southern
city of Aden, killing at least 31
people, authorities said.
In Sanaa, ambulances rushed
through the streets in northern and
central parts of the capital where
the offices of the rebels, known as
Houthis, are located. Pictures
posted online from the area show
huge orange flames rising from
the areas, which also are home to
Shiite mosques.
Security officials earlier said
two suicide attackers drove car
bombs into the gates of two buildings before detonating them.
They said a third attack targeted a
gathering of Houthis in Sanaas
Green Dome district.

Al-Qaida kills two alleged spies after Yemen leader killed

By Ahmed Al-Haj
SANAA, Yemen Al-Qaida

militants in Yemen killed two
men accused of spying for the
U.S. and hung their bodies off a
bridge on Wednesday, a day after
the jihadi group announced the
death of its leader in an
American drone strike.
Witnesses said al-Qaida gunmen in the southern city of

Mukalla read out charges before
shooting the two men, one of
whom was accused of guiding
the drone that killed commander
Nasr al-Ansi and a media liaison
known as Muhannad Ghalab in
April.
Al-Qaida supporters posted
pictures online that showed the
two men blindfolded on a sandy
beach, said to be the site of a

previous drone strike.
An o t h er p i ct ure s h o wed a
body in bloody clothes lashed
t o a p o l e, dan g l i n g o ff a
bridge.
The killings came a day after
al-Qaida
in
the Arabian
Peninsula, as the Yemeni affiliate is known, said its leader,
Nasir al-Wahishi, was killed in a
U.S. drone strike last week.
The Health Ministry said preliminary reports indicate the
blasts killed four people and

wounded 60.
The online statement claiming

Yemens Islamic State affiliate car-
ried out the attack said its militants set off four car bombs outside two Shiite mosques, including in the Green Dome district,
which is close to a security office
used by the Houthis. The third car
bomb hit the Houthis main political office and a fourth targeted the
home of a Houthi politician on the
same street, it said.
The Islamic State group, which
now controls a third of both Iraq
and Syria in its self-declared
caliphate, has had its Yemen affiliate claim attacks in the country
before. In March, just before the
Saudi-led coalition began its
airstrike campaign, the affiliate,
which refers to itself as the Sanaa
province, claimed responsibility
for a series of suicide bombings in
Sanaa targeting Shiites that killed
at least 137 people and wounded
345. American officials initially
expressed skepticism that affiliate
existed, as Yemen is also home to
the worlds most dangerous alQaida offshoot.
The al-Qaida branch, whose
leader was killed in a U.S. drone
strike last week, has targeted the
Houthis in dozens of deadly
attacks and its militants are
engaged in near-daily attacks in
central Yemen.
U.N.-brokered talks between the
rival factions in Yemens civil war
are underway in Geneva, aimed at
ending the violence and addressing the humanitarian crisis in the
Arab worlds poorest country.
Mediators hope for a humanitarian
truce during Ramadan, which
starts Thursday, but neither side
has shown any desire to compromise.

Stocks edged higher Wednesday

after the Federal Reserve reassured
investors it was in no rush to raise
interest rates from historically low
levels.
The central bank said that the economy is strengthening, but not enough
for policymakers to signal an imminent rate hike. The Feds benchmark
rate has remained near zero for more
than six years in an effort to bolster
the economy and encourage borrowing, lending and investment.
Surging stocks and ultra-low rates
have gone hand-in-hand over the last
six years, pushing the market to alltime highs.
This makes the market feel more
confident, said Alan Rechtschaffen,
financial advisor at UBS Wealth
Management Americas.
As the economy has recovered
investors have been trying to gauge
not only when the Fed will begin raising rates, but also how aggressively it
will move. Investors worry that if
rates climb too quickly, the economy
will slump.
The Dow Jones industrial average
gained 31.26 points, or 0.2 percent,
to 17,935.74. The Standard & Poors
500 index rose 4.15 points, or 0.2
percent, to 2, 100. 44. The Nasdaq

composite rose 9.33 points, or 0.2
percent, to 5,064.88.
Bond prices also rose after the Fed
released its statement at 2 p. m.
Eastern time. The yield on the 10-year
Treasury note fell to 2.31 percent from
2.38 percent just before the statement
was released.
Fed Chair Janet Yellen told reporters
after a two-day policy meeting that the
central bank needs to see more gains
in employment and stronger signs of
inflation before raising rates. She didnt provide a timetable for an increase,
but most economists expect the Fed to
move later this year.
Utilities gained the most of the 10
sectors in the S&P 500.
Investors buy the dividend-rich
stocks to provide them with an
income. Low rates make them look
attractive compared to bonds.
The major stock indexes remain
close to their record highs set in May,
but have sagged in the past month as
investors have focused on the outlook
for rates.
The Dow is still up 0.6 percent this
year despite dropping 2 percent from
its last record close on May 19. The
S&P 500 is up 2 percent for the year
and off 1.4 percent from its high on
May 21.

Wall Street powerhouse Goldman Sachs

now poised to loan money to Main Street
By Ken Sweet
NEW YORK Wall Streets most

iconic investment bank has decided to
open its doors to Main Street.
Goldman Sachs plans to start lending money directly to consumers and
small businesses, according to an
internal memo released to the
Associated Press. It would be the first
time in its history that the firm has
done business with ordinary borrowers.
Goldmans move comes as new regulations have weighed on the firms
other businesses, such as trading.
Also, the online lending industry

growing at sometimes double or triple
its levels from a year ago could
provide healthier returns without the
need for Goldman to build bank
branches.
The Goldman name may be well
known to Americans, but not its services, which have focused on raising
money for larger businesses and providing financial advice to wealthy
individuals. Unlike other household
names, such as Bank of America or
Wells Fargo, Goldman Sachs doesnt
run a network of retail banks.
But a shift is underway at the
investment bank. Goldman hired an
executive from credit card company

Discover Financial in May to lead the
firms entry into consumer and personal lending, according to the
memo, which was circulated to
employees last month.
Goldman did not lay out a timetable
for when it would start lending.
The investment bank is likely to
enter the consumer lending business
by making unsecured, personal loans
to borrowers with excellent credit,
according to a person familiar with
Goldmans plans. He spoke on condition of anonymity because details of
the plans are private. The firm may
expand its offerings in the future.
AT&T hit with $100M fine, company vows to fight

By Anne Flaherty
WASHINGTON AT&T Mobility

LLC has been slapped with a record
$100 million fine for offering consumers unlimited data, but then
slowing their Internet speeds after
they reached a certain amount. The
company says it will fight the
charges.
The
Federal
Communications
Commission said Wednesday that the
company misled consumers into buying plans they believed would give
them unlimited ability to send and
receive data, including Web browsing,
GPS navigation and streaming videos.
But once the consumer hit a certain
level, the data on unlimited plans
would be slowed down significantly, at
speeds lower than advertised, the FCC
said.
AT&T said it would vigorously dispute the fine, which was the largest
proposed in FCC history. If AT&T can
provide evidence that the FCC allegations are wrong, the fine could be
reduced. Otherwise, if AT&T refuses to
pay, its possible the two sides will
wind up in court.
The FCC has specifically identified
this practice as a legitimate and reasonable way to manage network
resources for the benefit of all customers, and has known for years that
all of the major carriers use it, the
company said in a statement released
to reporters.
also keeping an eye on negotiation

between Greece and its lenders.
Greece remains deadlocked in talks
with its creditors Wednesday and there
was little sign of a breakthrough a day
ahead of a meeting of the 19 finance
ministers from countries that use the
euro. Greece needs to get more loans
before the end of the month, when its
bailout program expires and it is
scheduled to make a big payment to
the International Monetary Fund.
European markets have slumped in
the last month as the talks have failed
to produce an agreement. Greek markets are suffering the most. The
nations benchmark index sank 3 percent Wednesday and is down 18 percent this year.
Yields on Greek government bonds
have surged as investors confidence
in the countrys ability to pay its debt
has waned. The yield on the Greek 10year government bond has climbed to
13 percent from 6 percent a year ago.
Back in the U.S., investors welcomed the latest round of corporate
deals.
Kythera Biopharmaceuticals surged
22.1 percent to $74.11 after Botox
maker Allergan agreed to buy the drugmaker for about $2.1 billion. The deal
would add a product that reduces double
chins to Allergans portfolio.
Allergan added 77 cents to $298.79.

Googles Nest targeting
thoughtful homes with new products
SAN FRANCISCO Googles Nest Labs is releasing new
versions of its surveillance-video camera and talking
smoke detector as part of its attempt to turn homes into yet
another thing that can be controlled and tracked over the
Internet.
The gadgets unveiled Wednesday are Nests most significant product updates since Google bought the Palo Alto,
California, company last year for about $2.75 billion. A
few months later, Google bought surveillance-camera
maker Dropcam for $517 million to help Nest realize its
ambition of creating thoughtful homes.
Like several other technology companies, Google is
implanting its own products and services into homes as
more appliances and other gadgets feed into an Internetconnected matrix. Nest, which is led by former Apple engineer and iPod designer Tony Fadell, is playing a central role
in Googles expansion into homes.
Google also is building an operating system called Brillo
to enable all the Internet-connected home devices to communicate with each other. Brillo will compete against a
similar system called HomeKit offered by Apple.
IPO of fitness tracker maker

Fitbit prices at $20 per share
SAN FRANCISCO Fitness-tracking device maker
Fitbit on Wednesday priced its initial public offering of
stock at $20 per share, slightly more than anticipated.
The pricing marks the final step before Fitbits stock
begins trading Thursday on the New York Stock Exchange
under the ticker symbol FIT. The San Francisco company
will debut with a market value of about $4 billion.
Fitbit sold 22.4 million shares, raising $448 million.
Fitbits stockholders sold another 14.2 million shares,
worth about $284 million.
Fitbit makes devices that can be worn on the wrist or
clipped to clothing to monitor daily steps, calories burned,
and grab other data.
The company said it sold 10.9 million devices last year to
nearly triple its annual revenue to $745 million.
Oracle skids as 4Q results

fall short of analyst estimates
REDWOOD CITY Shares of Oracle are slumping aftermarket trading after the software makers fourth-quarter
results fell short of Wall Street estimates.
Oracle said the stronger U.S. dollar continued to hurt its
results. The companys net income fell 24 percent to $2.76
billion, or 62 cents per share. Oracle said it earned 78 cents
per share if one-time items are excluded. Its revenue fell 5
percent to $10.71 billion.
Analysts expected a bigger profit of 87 cents per share
and $10. 91 billion in revenue, according to Zacks
Investment Research.
Oracle shares lost $3.37, or 7.5 percent, to $41.54 in
aftermarket trading.

Trevithick a force for Mills

By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
What a force Caroline Trevithick was for

the Mills girls track and field team this season.
The Lady Vikings captured their first
Peninsula Athletic League team title in modern history May 16 at Westmoors Powell
Stadium, topping the field with 110 points.
Second-place Menlo-Atherton had 109.
While the championship came down to a
spectacular final by distance runner Sarah
Gayer the sophomore won gold in the
3,200-meter race in the days penultimate
event before anchoring the 4x400 relay
team for a third-place finish to clinch the
title it was Trevithick who put Mills within striking distance.
The Daily Journal Girls Track Athlete of

the Year, Trevithick accrued 32 points over
four events, including gold medals in the
triple jump and long jump. She also took
silver in the 100 hurdles and fourth in the
300 hurdles.
How good was Trevithicks point total? If
she were the only competitor on the team,
she would have placed sixth in the 15-team
field.
By herself, she beat a number of teams,
Mills head coach Tim Tuff said.
Trevithick left quite the legacy at Mills.
The only girls athlete who ranks better in
those field events is the great Leslie Maxie
from the 1980s, who in 1984 set the national high school record in the 300 hurdles.
Trevithick recorded the second-best long
jump in program history with a distance of
16 feet, 9 1/2 inches. She recorded the second-best triple jump with a leap of 35-6. She
also ranks fourth all-time in both hurdles
events, with a personal record of 16.16 seconds in the 100 hurdles and a time of 48.49
in the 300 hurdles.
It's always nice to be remembered for
something and have a positive impact on
people, Trevithick said.
The events were just four of many at which
Trevithick could have excelled. As a junior,
she was the teams top performer in the pole
vault during the regular season. The threeyear varsity athlete also had the makings of
a quality sprinter early in her career.
With competitors having to limit themselves to four events per meet, however,

Giants shut down by Seattle A last look
at the finals
By Josh Liebeskind
SEATTLE Felix Hernandez pitched

eight innings of four-hit ball, Austin
Jackson delivered a go-ahead RBI triple in
the sixth, and the Seattle Mariners beat the
San Francisco Giants 2-0 Wednesday night.
Hernandez (10-4) allowed four hits, struck
out ve and walked two to rebound from the
worst outing of his career. The Mariners ace
allowed a runner to reach scoring position
twice, but both times he quickly retired the
side by inducing a groundout.
Charlie Furbush retired the rst two batters of the ninth and Carson Smith struck
out Matt Duffy for his fourth save in ve
chances.
Jackson tripled home Mike Zunino with
one out in the sixth off San Francisco starter
Madison Bumgarner (7-4). Robinson Cano
followed with an RBI double.
Bumgarner, who lost a perfect-game bid in
the fth, also gave up four hits in eight
innings, striking out nine and issuing one
intentional walk.
Hernandez allowed eight runs in one-third
of an inning at Houston on June 12, matching his shortest career outing. The only
other time he lasted just one out was due to
an injury in a 2007 start against Minnesota.
Bumgarners perfect game was broken up
by a ground ball that took a large hop in
front of shortstop Brandon Crawford and
bounced off his chest. Crawford picked up
the ball and threw high to rst. The play was
ruled a hit for Mark Trumbo. An error was
given to Crawford after his throw allowed
Trumbo to reach second.
The Mariners got their rst clean base hit

ust some final musings on the

Golden State Warriors first NBA
championship in 40 years.
More so than the San Francisco Giants,
the Warriors winning the title came, more
or less, out of the blue. At least the Giants
had been to a couple World Series before
finally breaking through in 2010.
The Warriors? There was essentially
nothing for 40 years. The odd playoff
appearance here and
there, but for the
most part, Golden
State was where free
agents went when
they had no other
choice.
Now Oakland is a
prime destination.

Now that hes the

MVP and has won
the franchises first
championship in
40 years, can Steph Curry finally start
getting the star treatment?
I have never seen a superstar in the NBA
get the lack of respect from officials as
much as Curry does. He was put on his
backside numerous times during the finals
and really, all season long yet only
received a handful of calls.
I know there will be a cry of, If its a

Warriors fans celebrate NBA title with street party

OAKLAND Warriors fans

honked their horns and danced in
streets throughout the San
Francisco Bay Area to celebrate
their teams first NBA title in 40
years.
The party began as soon as the
Golden State Warriors beat the
Cleveland Cavaliers to claim the
title in six games Tuesday night.
A rowdy crowd gathered in an
Oakland intersection and some
were running through the streets of
San Franciscos Mission District
waving the teams blue and gold
flags. There were no immediate
reports of any violence, vandalism

or arrests.
Is this real? Is this real?
said 40-year-old Peter
Boyd, a fourth-generation
Oakland resident who was
practically a newborn when
the team won its last title. On
Tuesday night he celebrated in
the streets outside an Oakland
sports bar.
I sat through decades of awful
garbage, Boyd told the Los
Angeles Times. This is
for Oakland.
The game was more
than 2,000 miles away in
Cleveland, but it made little differ-

San Francisco Bay Area
fans have been able to take to
the streets to celebrate multiple Super Bowl and World
Series winners, but for the

they can throw a party for
basketball. The Warriors
last won a title in 1975,
before many of their

were born.
In San Francisco, the city
hall building was lit blue and gold.
The San Francisco Bay Area is

The San Francisco Chronicle
reported that revelers packed
Mission Street around 24th Street

police looked warily on and
then around midnight, officers had
to sweep in to quell a bottle-tossing contingent. Two people were
arrested.
The paper said that the celebrations in Oakland and San Francisco
appeared to have petered out by
about 1 a.m. There were no immediate reports of serious problems.
Oakland announced a parade and
rally for the Warriors at 10 a.m.

Hillsdale tabs Sanzeri Chavez fans 11 in As

16-2 win over Padres
as new pitching coach
By Michael Wagaman
By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Nick Sanzeri is moving across town.

After not renewing his application to
manage the San Mateo varsity baseball
team, Sanzeri has been hired to take over as
pitching coach of Hillsdales varsity squad.
Sanzeri served as San Mateos manager
for two years. When he stepped down in
early June, he cited wanting to pursue a post
as a collegiate coach as the reason. That all
changed when Hillsdale manager James
Madison reached out.
I had thought that I was going to go to
the college level and had my sights set on
that right away, Sanzeri said. And when
James called, I was just elated.
San Mateo had a rough season under
Sanzeri. The Bearcats finished in the cellar
of the Peninsula Athletic League Ocean
Division and will fall to the Lake Division
next season. Hillsdale, however, is headed
in the other direction after winning the
Ocean Division title. The Knights will
move up to the Bay Division next season.
Thats what drew me in, was getting to
coach in that upper division, Sanzeri said.
The position will be the first as an assistant
coach of Sanzeris career. San Mateo was the
first team he ever coached, though he has
worked as a private baseball instructor with his
Core Savvy baseball program at Seacloud Park.
Two pitchers set to debut with Hillsdales
varsity squad James Toh and Matt Averill
are students at Core Savvy. And while the
Knights featured two dominant arms in 2015
in Ro Mahanty and Adam Schembri, the loss
of both graduating seniors figures to leave
big shoes to fill in the starting rotation.
Madison said the addition of Sanzeri is a
case of the right guy at the right time.
Thats the one thing thats been missing
from the program, the one missing piece, is
that one good pitching coach, Madison said.
So hes the guy, no doubt about it.
Sanzeri said he plans to meet with the pitch-
ing staff sooner rather

than later as to have a
game plan when the team
reconvenes in September
for fall-ball practice.
Im excited to work
with this group, Sanzeri
said. What they did last
year was awesome and
Nick Sanzeri well just build on it.
The fit also works for
the 24-year-old Sanzeri, with Madison having started coaching at a young age himself.
Now 31, Madison started his coaching career
at Voice of Pentecost Academy in San
Francisco when he was 18. He served there
for six years while transitioning to a coaching position at Western Technical College in
Wisconsin before returning home to the Bay
Area to take over at Hillsdale in 2014.
Theres going to be growing pains,
Madison said. I went through them myself
but it doesnt mean youre not qualified to have
success in a leadership position, especially in
Nicks case. The guy is smart. Hes dialed in.
Madison and Sanzeri met at a California
Interscholastic Federation coaching clinic
when they were hired at Hillsdale and San
Mateo, respectively, two years ago.
Right off the bat we just hit it off in
terms of talking baseball, Sanzeri said. I
could tell right away we were thinking the
same way, which was really cool.
Through three meetings between Hillsdale
and San Mateo over the past two years,
Hillsdale has posted a 2-1 record.
Two years of playing (against) him, what
stood out to me the most was what he was
working with, the pitch selection, the way he
kept guys off balance, Madison said. And
when you look at the schedule, he played a lot
of the toughest teams going back to last year.
Sanzeri posted a 20-30 record at San
Mateo. In his rookie season, he led the
Bearcats to a second-place finish in the PAL
Lake Division, prompting their promotion
to the Ocean Division in 2015.
OAKLAND Jesse Chavez struck out a

career-high 11 in seven innings to win for
only the second time in his last eight starts,
Billy Butler had four hits including a threerun home run and the Oakland Athletics beat
the San Diego Padres 16-2 on Wednesday
night.
Chavez (3-6) went into the game with the
eighth-lowest ERA in the AL and was dominant while allowing three hits over seven
innings. He fanned seven of the rst 11 batters, walked one and didnt allow a runner
past rst base until Alexi Amarista homered
on the rst pitch leading off the sixth.
Ben Zobrist drove in three runs and fell a
home run shy of hitting for the cycle for the
As. Stephen Vogt added two RBIs.
Will Middlebrooks homered for the
Padres, who lost their third straight since
ring manager Bud Black on Monday.
Oakland, which went into the game with
the worst record in the AL, set season highs
for runs and hits (20) while extending its
winning streak to four.
It got so bad for San Diego that interim
manager Pat Murphy used Amarista the
Padres starting shortstop to pitch and
get the nal out of the ninth. Amarista needed two pitches to retire Billy Burns on a y
out.
Chavez hadnt gotten much run support
this season but the As staked him to a 4-0
lead in the rst inning capped by Butlers
fth home run of the season.
The former Kansas City slugger, who
signed with Oakland in the offseason, had
been mired in an 8-for-42 funk before homering off San Diego starter Odrisamer
Despaigne (3-5). Butler also singled three
times.
Zobrist had an RBI single in the rst,
tripled in the third and added a two-run double in the seventh.
Sam Fuld and Brett Lawrie drove in two
runs apiece during Oaklands six-run eighth.
Despaigne struggled in his rst career
start against the As. He gave up six runs and
eight hits in six innings with two strikeouts and one walk.
Former Oakland All-Star catcher Derek
Norris went 0-for-4 in his rst game back at
the Coliseum since being traded to San
Diego in December.

Chambers Bay looks like a links course, but its not

By Tim Booth
JOHN DAVID MERCER/USA TODAY SPORTS
ing, for those of our brethren across the pond,

said Chambers Bay course designer Robert
Trent Jones Jr. For them, a links has to be near
or on the sea, near an estuary, sandy landscape
with fescue grasses and no trees.
While the one tree sitting on the Chambers
Bay property never comes into play towering next to the 16th tee its other features,
while unique to golf in the United States, keep it
from holding that links definition.
It can be perplexing. So before the first round
tees off on Thursday, heres a breakdown of why
Chambers Bay is getting that label and why its
not exactly accurate.
Why its being called links:
GRASS: Chambers Bay was built entirely
with fine fescue, on the tee boxes, the fairways
and most notably, the putting surfaces. The
grass is most prevalent in maritime climates
and while it goes dormant for segments of the
year, the grass rarely dies.
Chambers Bay is the first U.S. Open to be
played with fine fescue as the primary grass on
the putting surfaces, rather than the typical bent
General view of the 15th hole during practice rounds on Monday at Chambers Bay. While
described as links course, it is not by strict definition.
See U.S. OPEN, Page 23
UNIVERSITY PLACE, Wash. When

Chambers Bay first opened, one of promotional tags for the course was the opportunity to
play, Pure Links Golf.
It made perfect sense.
The course sat on the edge of a large body of
water, was made entirely of fescue grass and had
just one tree on the property.
Lumping Chambers Bay into the category of
a links golf course has become common leading
up to the U.S. Open. Even the No. 1 player in
the world, Rory McIlroy, said this week that
Chambers Bay plays more like a links course
than some links courses. It was a catchy statement that was later backed up by a similar opinion from 2010 U.S. Open champion Graeme
McDowell.
Theres just one problem. While its an easy
label for Chambers Bay, its technically not
true.
Yes, its got links properties, but it is a modern take on the traditional definition.
The word links has a very, very strict mean-
TREVITHICK
Trevithicks coaches decided the long legs of
her 5-8 frame would best be suited to hurdles.
So, Mills hurdles coach Larry Cappel helped
Trevithick hone her focus on the events in
which she was destined to compete.
It was all about focus, Tuff said. She
wanted to do everything and she was good at
everything. It was all about getting her to
find what events she was best and get her to
focus on those.
For Trevithick, the challenge was realizing she didnt have to compete in team
relays to still benefit the team.
At first, for my first three years, it was
mostly for the team, Trevithick said. I did
a lot of the relays. I was almost always on
a relay team. But then I was put into the
jumps because, when I started doing that,
they realized I was good at that too. And it
was good for the team too, because I could
get more points in the jumps.
By the finish of her junior year, Trevithick
anchored three events for Mills. She totaled
27 points at the PAL Championships,
including gold medals in the 100 hurdles and
the long jump. She took silver in the 300
hurdles. As a team, however, Mills got left in
the dust by a deep Menlo-Atherton team that
won its second straight PAL title.

Annual Millbrae Lions Club

Crab Cioppino and Marinated Crab Feed Events
The Millbrae Lions have become famous for hosting 2 delicious annual crab dinner dance
events: The Millbrae Lions Club Crab Cioppino Dinner & Dance chaired by Lion Ron
Frediani, and the Millbrae Lions Club Marinated Crab Feed & Dance chaired by Lion PP
Don Beyer. Each popular event starts off with cocktails having their own unique menu, raffle
and entertainment, and both are packed with crowds of well over 300 people. These sold out
events take place early in the year during crab season, with the Crab Cioppino in January
and the Crab Feed in February or March, both at Saint Dunstans Parish Center in Millbrae.
For tickets to these enjoyable events contact either Lion Don Beyer at (650) 583-2139 or Lion
Ron Frediani at (650) 583-9071 (new chairman in the works...info to follow). Remember to
get your tickets early because they go quickly.
On January 31, 2015 Millbrae Lions cooked & Millbrae Leos served throngs of Crab Cioppino fanatics, roughly 300
of them who, following a delicious dinner with salad, garlic bread and hearty caldrons of crab, crab, crab danced
up a storm late into the evening. Thanks to all the Lions, spouses and friends who help to make this annual event,
along with the Marinated Crab Feed event, a great success!
Monster March Mesmerizes Millbrae
On October 25, 2015 Millbrae Lions & Leos put together a

mesmerizing annual costumed celebration. Children watch in
awe as the attending clown keeps them in amazement.
Keeping in mind the wonderful Halloween spirit, I wanted

share with you the pictures from our Saturday, October 25, 2014
Millbrae Lions Monster March and Family Fun Day. Thanks
to Lion PP John Muniz for taking some of the pictures.
Thanks to Lion Co-Chairs Bart Speccia and Rich Stein
for planning, organizing and executing this wonderful event.
Special acknowledgement goes to Lion PP Ron Frediani (for
mentoring our co-chairs) and co-chairs assistants (new Lions
Anne Schneider, Shirley Chow and Sherilyn Escoto) for helping
with the planning and execution. Of course, Thanks to Lion
Anthony Caccia for transporting our mobile kitchen.
Kudos goes to our excellent Millbrae Leos for providing
the fun games and face painting (Thanks Leo Advisor Jan
Rao for working with our wonderful Leos!)
Collaboration / Support From Our Friends

We also want to acknowledge our dear friends who provided us with the following:
Tom Dawdy from the Rotary Club of Millbrae - lending
us a few of their games (btw...they also had an outstanding
event the following day at Rotary Park....congrats!)

San Carlos Lions Club - donating over 300 bags of
potato chips
Combining two important projects in one day

This year and we expect to continue this in future years,
we combined both the White Cane Days and Halloween
Monster March in one day. The result:
White Cane Funds - raised 49% increase over last (actual
dollar figures to come shortly). Enhanced visibility to our
Millbrae Community of what White Cane Days means and
how we use the funds to support our MLC Visually Impaired
Program (chaired by Lion PP John Muniz). Congratulations
to White Cane Chair Lion PP Dan Quigg!
The collaboration/support from our friends supports
our goal #3 and Combining two important projects in one
day supports our goal #2 (see highlighted blue below under
2014-15 MLC Goals).
Its a great day to be a Millbrae Lion and have wonderful
friends in our Millbrae Community!!
Cheers from Lion President Calvin!

grass or poa annua. The only way to tell the difference between fairways and greens will be
white dots delineating where the greens start.
SAND: Before it was a golf course, the property was a sand and gravel quarry that eventually
became a giant sandbox for course designers.
There could not have been a better subsurface to
construct a links-style golf course that used fine
fescue grass. Many of the sandy blowout areas
still contain some of the original gravel mined
from the site when it was a working quarry.
LOCATION: Links courses, by nature, are
generally situated where the water meets the
land.
And heres why Chambers Bay doesnt meet
the definition of a links course:
ELEVATION: This factor distinctly separates Chambers Bay. Links courses are built on
flatter dunes with mounding in places, but no
major elevation changes. Chambers Bay is full
of ups-and-downs, including elevated tee shots
on Nos. 5, 9 and 14, and the uphill, rising shots
needed to play holes Nos. 4, 7, 12 and 13. From
the top tee on the par 3 ninth, the drop from tee
to green is more than 100 feet.
Theres more elevation change than any
Open weve seen, USGA executive director
Mike Davis said.
LAND: Chambers Bay was not simply
placed upon the sandy property. The dunes and
mounds which define the routing of the holes
were man-made with bulldozers during construction.
THE TREE: OK, so this might be nitpicking since the one tree on the course at Chambers
Bay doesnt even come into play.
But as Jones noted, the purist of links golf
would not approve of that one towering tree.
That tree has been a witness to everything
thats gone on here, Jones said. Somehow it
survived the miners. It was struggling all of its
life. Then it survived basically us.
NBA, where the stars get preferential treatment by the referees and the rest get called
for a foul every time one of them touches
one of the leagues stars.
Take LeBron James, for example. For all
his transcendent ability, the referees certainly help him out a whole lot. I swear, in
the game Tuesday, I saw him get touched
touched! by a Warriors defender and a foul
was called. Meanwhile, James spent the
entire series giving defenders shoulder
checks and forearm shivers while backing
down and nary a whistle. There was even an
out-of-bounds play for the Cavaliers late in
the game Tuesday where James simply
shoved his defender to the floor to receive a
pass.
Refs swallowed their whistles.
A few years ago, an NBA referee was found
guilty of trying to fix games with his calls.
As much as the NBA tries to distance itself
from that so-called rouge official, officiating hasnt gotten much better and still
constantly lends itself to raised eyebrows.
***
The NBA and its broadcasting partner,
ABC (or ESPN or Disney or whatever corporation owns it) really needs to rethink its
broadcasting teams. Play-by-play man
Mike Breen is one of the best in the business, but analysts Mark Jackson and Jeff
Van Gundy, especially, came off sounding
like complete clowns the entire series.
First there is Jackson, who had a massive
conflict of interest analyzing the finals,
considering he was ousted by the Warriors
after last season. He could barely contain
his contempt for center Andrew Bogut, with
whom he allegedly had issues with last season. While Jackson kept it mostly professional, he should have been the bigger man
and stepped aside once the Warriors made it

the finals.
Then theres Van Gundy. I dont even
know where to start with this guy. At best,
hes simply a contrarian one who will
just the say opposite of whatever theory is
posited to him. At worst, he was simply a
shrill for the Cleveland Cavaliers, as he
worshipped at the feet of LeBron James.
The NBA (or whoever is in charge of the
broadcast) should maybe think about doing
what college football did for its national
championship game this year, which was to
offer several channels with different feeds.
There was the national channel that gave
you the national broadcast call, but then it
also offered feeds of the teams local broadcasters, which conceivably have better
insight into their own teams than the
national guys would have.
That way, we wouldnt be subjected to analysts who simply dont have the depth of
knowledge of every team in the league to
competently call games.
***
The best part of the Warriors winning the
NBA championship? They are truly the Bay
Areas team.
There are no divided loyalties when it
comes to Golden State. Youre either a
Warriors fan or youre not. There is no
49ers-Raiders debate, or Giants-As. You can
like any NBA basketball team, but if you
live in the Bay Area and youre looking for
a local rooting interest, Golden State is
your only choice.
So whether the Warriors stay in Oakland
(which seems more and more unlikely) or
eventually move the San Francisco (which
they are desperately trying to do), they will
remain the Bay Areas team.
***
Its common practice for professional
sports teams in the same market to congratulate a squad that wins a title. It was no
exception Monday night and into Tuesday,
23
as the Giants, As, Raiders and 49ers all congratulated Golden State for winning its first
title in 40 years.
And then I saw on Facebook the San Jose
Sharks congratulating the Warriors. I knew
what was coming next. Of the dozens of
comments below the post, most were simply crushing the Sharks for having one of
the best teams in the NHL for years and not
winning a championship.
It was pointed out time and again
that every professional franchise in the Bay
Area has won a championship in the last 30
years, including the San Jose Sabercats in
the Arena Football League and the San Jose
Earthquakes soccer club.
I can only imagine Sharks brass smiling
through their teeth as they grind away their
molars as the only franchise in the Bay Area
without a title. What started as a simple
congratulation to the Warriors, denigrated
into a piling on session of the Sharks.
***
For all the turmoil and bad attention the
city of Oakland has received over the last
couple years remember the Occupy
protests? Monday night was apparently
a good night for Warriors fans.
When I got home from work and saw my
wife wasnt watching the news, I asked her,
Dont you want to see if Oakland is burning
down?
According to most reports, the fans were
well behaved. Credit fans who celebrated
the right way which doesnt include rioting in the streets, confrontations with
police, structure fires and looting, all of
which has happened in other championship-winning cities in recent years. Way
to put Oakland in a positive light.

have two World Cup titles, finished
atop Group D with a 1-0 victory over
Nigeria on Monday night.
Colombia, ranked No. 28 in the
world, was the third-place finisher in
Group F behind France and England.
But Las Cafeteras already pulled off one
of the tournaments biggest upsets
with a 2-0 group-stage victory over
No. 3 France.
In its group finale on Wednesday,
Colombia fell 2-1 to England in
Montreal. Sixteen teams in the expanded field of 24 advanced to the knockout
round.
Colombia will face the United States
on Monday night at Commonwealth
Stadium in Edmonton, Alberta.

Book explores innovations of

modern Japanese home design
By Katherine Roth
Challenged to build homes that create a

feeling of light, space and tranquility in
some of the worlds most densely populated
areas, Japanese architects have had no
choice but to think outside the box.
Literally.
Basic elements like walls, windows and
floors are reinvented to solve design conundrums, such as homes built on footprints
the size of studio apartments or surrounded
on all sides by other buildings. Frequently,
the materials of choice are a combination of
reinforced concrete, wood and glass.
With interest in micro-housing growing
worldwide, such innovations have made
Japanese architecture a leading force in contemporary home design. A new book, The
Japanese House Reinvented (Monacelli
Press) by Philip Jodidio, surveys over 50
contemporary homes, by both emerging
and established firms.
Faced with the constraints of very dense
urban areas and a lifestyle that has long
taken into account small spaces, Japanese
architects and their clients have shown a
surprising willingness to experiment,
writes Jodidio, who has written more than
100 books on contemporary architecture,
including monographs on architects Tadao
Ando and Shigeru Ban.
The elegant houses in the book seem
almost miraculously livable and show a way
forward for challenging architectural puzzles.
But they are not for the timid.
In a Yokohama house designed by Takeshi
Hosaka Architects, the basement level of a
980-square-foot house features a hardwood
floor that slopes sharply upward at one end
toward the street-level window above,
resembling a sleek sort of skateboard ramp.
There is no defining line between floor and
wall. The ceiling, in turn, slopes steeply
upward, allowing for an enormous, almost
story-high window.
The unusual design creates an urban basement with plenty of natural light and privacy all at the same time, and gives the
diminutive two-story building the outward
appearance of being three stories tall.
An even tinier home in Tokyo, this one
designed by Koji Tsutsui and Associates,
features powerfully angled bent boxes of
With interest in micro-housing growing worldwide, such innovations have made Japanese
architecture a leading force in contemporary home design.
reinforced concrete, which manage to hide
views of neighboring houses while allowing in sunlight through a partially sheltered
balcony. Theres space on the balcony for a
few plants and small trees.
For a house this small, surrounded on all
four sides, we had be really creative about
light, and the space had to be very multi-
purpose, said Satoshi Ohkami, an associate at the firm, adding that many Japanese
design solutions could be applied elsewhere
in the world.
In a similarly small Tokyo house by
Hiroyuki Shinozaki Architects, a movable
staircase separated from the structure allows
for different shelf-like floor levels at irreg-
ular heights, and rooms that can be easily

reconfigured for changing needs.
Not all the houses are diminutive, however.
Like many Americans, Japanese tend to
prefer houses over apartments, and roughly
60 percent of Japanese dwellings are single-family homes, Jodidio writes. Many of
them are in dense urban areas.
See-through flooring, reflective ceilings,
plentiful balconies, mezzanines and inner
courtyards, and windows and walls at surprising angles are more the rule than the
exception among homes by these Japanese
architects. Windows come in all shapes and
sizes, frequently appearing at unexpected
angles. And light-drenched inner courtyards
are juxtaposed by frequently closed-looking
exteriors, some of which even conceal
entries.
The architect Go Hasegawa designed one
Tokyo house with a louvered floor, consisting of wood flooring with generous slivers
of open space between the floorboards, giving the illusion of space and allowing sunlight from a big upper window to reach the
ground floor.
It is truly open. Air, sound, smell and the
everyday life of the family come up and
down through this louvered floor,
Hasegawa said.
Now is the moment we can innovate the
house and help create a new way of living.
Not only architects, but I feel clients, also,
are engaged in that quest, he said.
Much as sliding, rice-paper screens traditionally made indoor areas more flexible in
Japan, intermediate floor levels and inner
open spaces add a feeling of space.
And the grandeur of nature is evident in
simple yet dramatic touches, such as a single tree in a minuscule inner courtyard or
balcony, or a sliver of visible sky at the top
of a wall.
We design minimalist and clean design
to get rid of clutter, said Ohkami, speaking
from Mill Valley, California, where his firm
has a studio (Tsutsui is currently a visiting
professor at the University of California in
Berkeley). We focus on details and materials within the space to create the character,
and the materials become very important.
Concrete is a lot more common in Japan in
the United States. People are hesitant here
to use concrete. I dont know why exactly.
Architecture has to be flexible.

Plant so the garden

can move with you
By Dean Fosdick
People on the move often spurn gardening as a hobby because they have to leave
their plants behind. But new innovations
and creative ideas are making planters
portable and easy to transfer from one
location to another.
They store easily and work well for tight
spaces, too. Adaptable and flexible
planters with wheels, handles or other
movable parts fit these needs, as do lightweight, durable products, said Susan
McCoy, founded of Garden Media Group in
Kennett Square, Pennsylvania. Or think
modular containers that fit together and
come apart like LEGOs.
Theyre extremely versatile and can be
used indoors or outdoors, individually or
in multiples, on tabletops or hanging on a

wall, and can be expanded as enthusiasm
for gardening grows, McCoy said.
The new products are aimed at those
who prize freedom over home ownership,
she said, including retirees and empty
nesters as well as young people who
havent settled down.
They can barely commit to a single
place, let alone a permanent plot of land,
McCoy said. Portable gardening gives
everyone a chance to grow something, no
matter where you live. And its fun to see
gardens pop up in the most unexpected
places.
Movable planters are excellent for
raised beds, which make gardening more
accessible, particularly for those who
dont like bending over or have physical
limitations.
Movable planters are excellent for raised beds, which make gardening more accessible,
particularly for those who dont like bending over or have physical limitations.
We push grow bags as great for apartment living, as they store well and you
can take them with you if youre not in
permanent housing, said Maree Gaetani,
a spokeswoman for Gardeners Supply Co.
in Burlington, Vermont.
Millennials in particular (those age 18
to 35) are showing interest in portable
gardening, including on a roof, deck or
patio, Gaetani said.
Many kinds of containers can be converted into portable planters, from wheelbarrows to milk cans to bushel baskets.
Other examples? Hard-sided suitcases, little red wagons, coalscuttles, recycled
shopping carts, discarded tricycles and
bicycles. All can be moved cross-country,
across town or simply shifted from one

side of the patio to another to follow the
sun.
Keep your eyes open and creative juices
flowing when shopping for inexpensive
items at craft shops, antique stores and
yard sales.
Portable home gardens also can be carried indoors when the season turns cold or
when threatening weather is forecast.
Were finding that across ages and
incomes, people want to grow their own,
even if they only have a small space and
may be at a transient point in their lives,
Gaetani said. This is where aging baby
boomers and younger gardeners intersect.

Garden out of control? Simplify

By Dean Fosdick
Too many plants, too little time? A lot of

unnecessary effort can be weeded out with
some time- and energy-saving shortcuts,
from plant selection to better tools.
I realized one day that I was becoming a
slave to my plants, said Kerry Ann Mendez
of Kennebunk, Maine, author of The
Right-Size Flower Garden (St. Lynns
Press, 2015). I was working harder for
them than they were working for me. So I
re-evaluated and started being more responsible about the plants I was putting into my
garden.
Mendez said she made some hard decisions.
I had some hydrangeas that had been
constant bloomers but they were water
hogs, she said. Im using different
hydrangeas now that require less than half
the amount of water the old ones did.
As for annuals, she found varieties that
dont need deadheading, consume less water
and thrive in the shade.
They give me more pizazz and provide
lots of pollen, Mendez said. Thats better
planting for the planet, and Ive been able
to recover 50 percent more of my (gardening) time just by simplifying.
Plants are not your children or pets, she
said. If theyre not performing up to your
standards if they take too much time and
effort dont make any excuses for them.
Tear them out. Take them away.
Other ways to garden smarter:

Use native plants. Not necessarily
Woody plants require much less maintenance than perennials. You can put just one woody
shrub in an area that initially supported five to seven perennials.
exclusively, Mendez said. I believe in a
mix of plants if the others (non-natives) are
well behaved. But with natives, you dont
need to water and theres no fertilizing.
Little or no hand-holding is required, and
theyre important for bio needs, like

attracting pollinators.
Mulch. People are doing more with
mulch, Mendez said, especially multi-purposing, nutrient-rich mulches that can ener-

gize plants while reducing water evaporation from the soil. Ground covers also help
by discouraging weeds and providing a tapestry of foliage and flowers.
Plant shrubs and ornamental trees.
Woody plants require much less maintenance than perennials, Mendez said. I can
put just one woody shrub in an area that initially supported five to seven perennials.
Downsize. Eliminate some of that
mowing and weeding, said Brooke
Edmunds, an Oregon State University
extension horticulturist. Plant using lawn
mixes that work even if theyre not as frequently mowed. Use perennials more than
annuals. Use things that dont grow as
quickly and wind up becoming just another
chore.
Emphasize safety. Avoid acute and
chronic repetitive strain injuries, said
Anne Lindsay, an associate professor and
exercise physiologist with University of
Nevada-Reno Cooperative Extension. If its
the end of the day and theres just one tree
left to prune, dont feel compelled to do it.
Your body is tired but you want to finish
it, said Lindsay. Thats when injuries happen, or the repetitive strain.
Choose better tools. Bring your raised
beds up to a comfortable working height,
Lindsay said. Get tools with larger handles
that discourage strong gripping and ease
pain.
Less effort can deliver more results with
simplified but thoughtful yard work,
Mendez said.
Ive done a lot of rethinking about how
to garden, she said. Im getting beautiful
color with less work, and I feel better about
it.

TOLL LANES
adding auxiliary lanes from Oyster
Point in South San Francisco north to
San Francisco and carpool/toll lanes
from Whipple Avenue in Redwood City
to the Interstate 380 interchange.
Many C/CAG board members, however, dont think charging drivers to
access a dedicated lane will do much to
ease traffic while others say its about
time transportation funds are spent in
north county.
101 needs help but Im not convinced HOV lanes are the answer,
Foster City Mayor Art Kiesel said
about adding high-occupancy vehicle
lanes. The problem, he said, is solving
the east-west commute to and from the
East Bay as the San Mateo/Hayward
Bridge can be a nightmare to navigate.
The big bulk of traffic is 92, he
said.
In South San Francisco, however, the
auxiliary lane proposal could go a long
way toward easing commutes out of the
citys biotech hub at Oyster Point,
Councilwoman Karyl Matsumoto said.
She said that north San Mateo
County is often ignored when it comes
to highway project funding.
I feel like were a stepchild for
C/CAG projects, she said.
Ultimately, the problem could be
solved with expanded public transportation services, Matsumoto said.
BEACH
On Wednesday, warning signs were
posted to deter swimmers at the Marina
Lagoon and at the ocean-side beaches
of Pillar Point as well as Fitzgerald
Marine Reserve, according to the San
Mateo County Health System.
The closures and poor grades are
based on concentrations of E. coli and
enterococcus bacteria that can cause
gastrointestinal and respiratory illnesses that could range from minor
infections to fatalities, Colin said.
Despite the warning signs, children
still swam at San Mateos Aquatic Park
where city officials are working to
address the water thats exacerbated by
poor circulation. The city spends nearly $200,000 annually on specialists
to manage nuisance plant growth and
has recently begun to clean up animal
droppings, said Deputy Public Works
Director Gary DeJesus. Based on recent
tests, the water quality is improving as
the city tries a more multi-faceted
approach to dealing with the marina
that gathers stormwater runoff,
DeJesus said.
Auxiliary lanes can reduce accidents

and help with moving traffic, said Daly
City Councilman David Canepa.
Canepa supports carpool lanes but
not toll lanes.
Im not supportive of charging a
toll, Canepa said.
It would equate to a tax on the poor
and middle class, he said.
Carpool lanes disappear traveling
north on Highway 101 at Whipple and
San Carlos Councilman Mark Olbert
supports bringing them deeper into the
county.
Hes heard the rhetoric that toll lanes
can improve traffic but remains skeptical as to whether they will work here.
I favor carpool lanes but not necessarily a toll lane, Olbert said.
Belmont Mayor David Braunstein
pointed out that the region suffers lost
productivity when workers are stuck in
traffic.
The solution may be to find more
ways to get commuters out of their
cars, he said.
Theres a limit to what can be done
on 101. The issue is how do we get the
biggest bang for our buck, Braunstein
said about investing in traffic-calming
solutions.
Braunstein,
Canepa,
Matsumoto, Olbert and Kiesel are all
on the C/CAG board.
Traffic is so bad on Highway 101,
that Assemblyman Kevin Mullin, DSouth San Francisco, introduced legislation in February to develop a strategy
to tame traffic as the rebounding economy has led to slower commutes.
Mullins Assembly Bill 378 makes
congestion relief on the 48-mile

stretch of highway between San
Francisco and San Jose a priority.
The bill declares that the corridor is
the most economically productive and
important stretch of highway in the
state and that its transportation capacity is grossly insufficient to serve the
growing number of commuters.
It also declares that bad traffic on 101
has led to serious overcrowding on
Caltrain.
The bill seeks to provide a framework for addressing major congestion
through San Mateo County by bringing together the business community,
transportation experts and city officials to engage the commuting public
on ways to alleviate the congestion.
The bill calls for regional transportation agencies to take swift and decisive
action to relieve commuter congestion.
Mullin cautions, however, that
developing the strategy could be a
multi-year process.
C/CAG is seeking the $16.5 million
to study the projects from the San
Mateo
County
Transportation
Authority, which has $125 million
available for projects that reduce congestion in commute corridors. The
work will also be done in partnership
with Caltrans.
Seeking the grants is the preliminary
step and it could take up to two years
before the studies are complete, said
C/CAGs Jean Higaki.
Future phases of work will include
design and construction.
The reason its improving is

because weve developed for the first
time a Marina Lagoon Management
Plan that includes aquatic vegetation
control as well as clean up of the water
foul droppings, DeJesus said. Were
committed to maintaining the highest
water quality feasibly possible.
The city also uses pumps to help circulate the water and changing tides
contribute as well, DeJesus said.
The lagoon is impacted by stormwater runoff, of which there has been little since the drought. Although residents throughout the state are struggling with the unusually dry conditions, it appears it may be having a
positive impact on water quality at certain beaches.
Our extended drought is a doubleedge sword. Obviously were dying of
thirst, but the upside, if you can call it
that, is improved water quality due to a
lack of pollutants and toxins reaching
these water bodies, Colin said.
Various beaches in and around Pillar
Point Harbor on the coastside are contaminated by high bacteria levels frequently attributed to stormwater
runoff, particularly during the winter.
The harbor ranked eighth worst in the
state last year, but has since dropped
off the list.
Its good news that [Pillar Point

Harbor] did not make the top 10 list of
the most polluted beaches this year,
Nicole David, vice president of the San
Mateo County Harbor District Board of
Commissioners, wrote in an email.
Many beaches have seen some water
quality improvements because they
have received less runoff due to the
drought conditions. However, the
water quality data collected by San
Mateo County on a weekly basis still
show regular exceedances for indicator
bacteria at beaches around the harbor.
David, a marine biologist, said its
important the Harbor District continue
to work with those monitoring the
water quality of the harbor such as
county health officials, the Surfrider
Foundation and the countys Resource
Conservation District to determine
possible sources of the bacteria.
While the annual report is meant to
highlight poor conditions and educate
the public, Colin said the nonprofit
also seeks to help determine ways to
deter dangerous bacteria.
Heal the Bay is not interested in
just pointing the finger and saying
clean this up. Colin said. Were
actively engaged with these communities to find solutions to these problems.

NOTICE OF PETITION TO
ADMINISTER ESTATE OF
Raymond Louis Cleary aka Raymond
L. Cleary
Case Number: 125745
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or estate, or both, of: Raymond Louis Cleary
aka Raymond L. Cleary. A Petition for
Probate has been filed by Anne B.
Cleary aka Anne Bryan Cleary in the Superior Court of California, County of San
Mateo. The Petition for Probate requests
that Anne B. Cleary aka Anne Bryan
Cleary 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: July 7, 2015 at 9:00
a.m., Department 28, Superior Court of
California, County of San Mateo, 400
County Center, Redwood City, CA
94063.
If you object to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing
and state your objections or file written
objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person
