The Half Moon Bay City Council voted to replace the Main Street Bridge in 2013 based on a Caltrans report that
questioned the long-term viability and seismic safety of the structure.

Tests could determine fate of


contended Main Street Bridge
Engineers consider Half Moon Bay bridges safety, seismic reliability
By Samantha Weigel
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

A debate over a small structure


that divided the close-knit community of Half Moon Bay by sparking a citizens referendum last year,
will finally be put to the test as
engineers investigate the integrity of the Main Street Bridge.
The public and city officials are
now awaiting the results from last
weeks efforts to determine
whether a more-than-110-year-old
structure that serves as a key thoroughfare into downtown can be
repaired.

The City Council voted to


replace the bridge in 2013 based
on a Caltrans report that questioned the long-term viability and
seismic safety of the structure a
move that prompted an angered
group of citizens to pass Measure
F: the Main Street Bridge
Preservation act last year. Based
on the measure, the City Council
cannot tear down the bridge without first securing voter approval.
The Caltrans report and structural safety of the bridge was at the
heart of the debate and now, more
than a year later, experts could put
the quandary to rest after using a

variety of tests.
Depending on where you are,
you might have a lot of different
views on it. But at the end of the
day, its a roadway that people
have to use and its 110 years old,
said Mayor Marina Fraser. Its
been quite controversial, I understand that and I appreciate peoples feelings on it. But at some
point, that bridge needs to be
repaired or replaced and at what
point are we at? Maybe its not
this generation its the next generation, but we couldnt just ignore
it.

See BRIDGE, Page 19

Without a hint of dissent from


the public, the San Carlos City
Council unanimously approved
placing a $45 million bond measure on the November ballot to preserve Black Mountain as a public
park.
Only one of 12 public speakers,
Donna Fields, said she was undecided about her vote at Monday
nights council meeting.
Fields, in her 80s, questioned
whether people her age would be
able to use the park and also wondered what the fate of three homes

on the property would be.


A master plan for the nearly 25
acres of land off Alameda de las
Pulgas would only be formalized if
the bond measure passes, City
Manager Jeff Maltbie said.
One by one, every other speaker
at the meeting praised the purchase including Linda Teutschel,
the longtime organizer of
Hometown Days.
This is a no-brainer. You must
do this. Its the best thing for the
families of San Carlos, Teutschel
said.

Police: Cause of beach


boom may never be known
PROVIDENCE, R.I. Investigators
have found no physical evidence of an
explosion on the ground after a
woman on a Rhode Island beach was
thrown into an rock jetty, and officials
said Monday there may never be an
explanation as to what exactly happened.
It could be a lot of different things,
state police Col. Steven G. ODonnell
said. We may not have a definitive
answer.
Police and the states fire marshal are
investigating whether there was an aerial explosion or an explosion below
ground at Salty Brine beach in
Narragansett,
ODonnell
said.
Investigators are also looking into
rock shifts and seismic events, he said.
You could have an aerial explosion
that could create a boom. Anything on
ground, weve ruled that out,
ODonnell said.
Kathleen Danise, 60, of Waterbury,
Connecticut, was thrown 10 feet from
her beach chair into the rock jetty on
Saturday, according to Danises family
members. Witnesses told police they
heard a loud bang.
Danise suffered two fractured ribs and
bruising, her family said. She was
released from the hospital on Sunday.
Police never theorized that the event
was caused by a grenade or another
explosive device, ODonnell said.

San Bruno examines license plate readers


Technology would assist law enforcement efforts, police chief says
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

A police cruiser in San Bruno may soon be


equipped with a gadget that reads license
plates to upload and store the car identification information, under approval by the City
Council.
The proposal to accept one mobile license
plate reader, which will be mounted on a car in
the San Bruno Police Department fleet, will
be considered during the City Councils meeting Tuesday, July 14.
The recording device, which instantaneously scans and captures license plate data, is
necessary to enhance public safety, according
to a report written by Police Chief Ed
Barberini.
We believe it to be an asset that will help
us in what we do, he said.
Investigating residential burglaries or car
thefts, locating stolen or wanted vehicles,
arresting suspects, finding victims of a crime
and tracking down people who have gone
missing could all be made easier through aid
of the technology, according to the report.
The San Mateo County Office of Emergency
Service and Homeland Security has secured
grant funding which would be used to purchase the license plate reader, worth approximately $22,000, and offer it to the San Bruno
Police Department, according to the report.
Cities in San Mateo County such as San
Mateo, Daly City, Menlo Park and Redwood
City already have similar technology in
place.
San Bruno police have borrowed license
plate readers from other jurisdictions in the
past, and found them helpful in solving
crimes, said Barberini.
Over the past few years, weve experienced
some successes, not only in solving crimes,
but assisting other local agencies, he said.
Considering the citys placement near the

Comment on
or share this story at
www.smdailyjournal.com
intersection of Interstate 280 and Highway
101, the technology would be effective not
only in assisting investigations of police in
San Bruno, but law enforcement across San
Mateo County, said Barberini.
The report cites one incident in which the
technology was instrumental in the investigation of a homicide in Daly City, in which
the suspect alleged he was in San Jose at the
time of death and could not have committed
the crime, but license plate data contradicted
his story and showed he was nearby in San
Bruno.
It is believed that the deployment of [an
automated license plate reader] would not
only benefit the San Bruno Police
Department, but would also prove valuable to
law enforcement agencies throughout the
county and region, Barberini wrote in the
report.
Concerns regarding privacy have developed as license plate readers have become
more prevalent, as civil liberty groups worry
about the ability of law enforcement to locate
and track innocent residents.
Should the council approve accepting a
license plate reader, the technology would
feed into the Northern California Regional
Intelligence Center, a government agency
with jurisdiction from Monterey to Humboldt
counties.
The regional database had gathered more
than 46 million images of license plate readers in the last year, according to a Daily
Journal report published in April.
State Sen. Jerry Hill, D-San Mateo,
has proposed legislation which would
require agencies to provide hearing and a
p ub l i c co mmen t p eri o d b efo re i mp l e-

menting the technology.


Assistant City Manager Tami Yuki said she
has not received any feedback from residents
who may be hesitant about the implementation of the technology.
If there are people who have concerns, Im
assuming they will show up to the council
meeting, she said.
But, according to Barberinis report,
NCRIC policy protects against abuse and dissemination of sensitive information.
The secure storage of information garnered
by [automated license plate readers] is regulated and only accessible to law enforcement
agencies on a need to know basis, according to the report.
The regional agency purges its records of
all vehicles not involved in criminal investigations every year, according to the report.
As license plate readers become increasingly common for local police departments,
Barberini said the San Bruno Police
Department is constantly looking for opportunities to stay up to date with the most recent
technological advancements which could aid
law enforcement.
San Bruno faces the same challenges that
every city in our area faces, he said. And we
are always looking to take the same steps as
our partners regionally to make things safer
for our residents.
Yuki said should the technology help make
San Bruno more secure, she would support its
implementation.
If this is something that would assist our
police department and our residents, that
would be a good tool to have, she said.

Search suspended for missing
San Carlos hiker, 76, in state park
A search has been called off for a 76-year-old hiker missing
at a state park since last week, Monterey County sheriffs
officials said Monday.
Harold Drake, a San Carlos resident, was
reported missing by his friend at Pfeiffer
Big Sur State Park last Wednesday at 10
p.m., sheriffs officials said.
Drake had been with the friend and went
on a long hike by himself. He did not
return that afternoon and was scheduled to
leave the park last Friday.
Drake was last seen leaving a campsite
Harold Drake
and heading toward either Pine Ridge Trail
or Mount Manuel Trail, the two main pathways out of the
park, with only a gallon of water and small supply of snacks.
The 76-year-old is an avid hiker, in good shape and has not
been diagnosed with any medical conditions.
Deputies searched the two main paths and shorter, adjacent
trails with assistance from state park rangers, according to
the Sheriffs Office.
The search area expanded to Big Sur River gorge last
Thursday. Later in the week, additional assistance in the
search was provided through crews from Monterey, Marin,
Santa Cruz and Ventura counties, sheriffs officials said.
Helicopters from the Naval Air Station Lemoore in Fresno
County, state Air National Guard and California Highway
Patrol also helped look for the hiker, according to the
Sheriffs Office.
By Sunday, search crews had looked through 100 miles of
trail and river but were unable to find Drake, sheriffs officials
said.

Bill seeks disclosure of construction settlements


SACRAMENTO Construction companies will have to
disclose building defects such as those that could have contributed to a deadly balcony collapse in Berkeley under a state
legislative proposal that will be heard for the first time
Tuesday.
The bill by two Northern California state lawmakers would
require construction companies to disclose felony convictions and settlements to state regulators over construction
defects. Segue Construction, the company that built the
Berkeley apartment, has paid more than $26.5 million in the
past three years to settle lawsuits related to balcony failures.
The company did not immediately respond to requests for
comment.
Six people were killed and seven others were hospitalized
last month when the apartment balcony collapsed during a
birthday party.
Berkeley city officials concluded that the balconys wooden support beams were rotted by water damage, but they didnt determine how the damage occurred. An investigation is
pending.
A Folsom man was also killed this month when a staircase
that was scheduled for repairs collapsed in his apartment
building.
SB465, authored by Democratic Sens. Jerry Hill of San
Mateo and Loni Hancock of Oakland, would require firms to
disclose to regulators the results of criminal convictions and
civil suits in cases of construction defects, fraud, negligence
and incompetence.

Little Pluto larger than scientists


thought as flyby drawing closer
By Marcia Dunn
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. Little Pluto is a little bigger


than anyone imagined.
On the eve of NASAs historic flyby of Pluto, scientists
announced Monday the New Horizons spacecraft has nailed
the size of the faraway icy world.
Measurements by the spacecraft set to sweep past Pluto
on Tuesday indicate the diameter of the dwarf planet is
1,473 miles, plus or minus 12 miles. Thats about 50 miles
bigger than previous estimates in the low range.
Principal scientist Alan Stern said this means Pluto has a
lower density than thought, which could mean an icier and
less rocky interior.
New Horizons 3 billion-mile, 9 1/2-year journey from
Cape Canaveral, Florida, culminates Tuesday morning when
the spacecraft zooms within 7,767 miles of Pluto at 31,000
mph.
Mission managers said theres only one chance in 10,000
something could go wrong, like a debilitating debris strike,
this late in the game. But Stern cautioned: Were flying
into the unknown. This is the risk we take with all kinds of
exploration.
It sounds like science fiction, but its not, Stern said as
he opened a news conference at mission headquarters in
Maryland. Tomorrow morning a United States spacecraft
will fly by the Pluto system and make history.
Discovered in 1930, Pluto is the last planet in our solar
system to be explored. It was a full-fledged planet when
New Horizons rocketed away in 2006, only to become
demoted to dwarf status later that year.
New Horizons has already beamed back the best-ever
images of Pluto and big moon Charon on the far fringes of
the solar system.
The Pluto system is enchanting in its strangeness, its
alien beauty, said Stern, a planetary scientist at Southwest
Research Institute in Boulder, Colorado.

for attempted homicide after allegedly stabbing another person in San Mateo pleaded
not guilty to attempted murder Monday,
according to the District Attorneys Office.
Gregorio Roque, a 65-year-old San Mateo
man, was arrested after 11:25 p.m., July 1,
for stabbing a 23-year-old transient near
the corner of North Fremont Street and
Tilton Avenue, according to San Mateo
police.
The male victim was transported to the
hospital with a serious wound to his neck
but was in stable condition.
A witness who was with the victim said
they knew Roque who got into an argument
with the 23-year-old while they socialized
near the intersection, according to police.
Roque then allegedly brandished a

machete, attacked the victim and fled.


Roque as well as the machete were found a
short time later near the first block of North
Fremont Street, according to police.
He remains in custody on $500,000 bail
and is due back in court July 27 for a preliminary hearing.

Half Moon Bay man


arrested for attempted murder
A coastside man was arrested Friday for
allegedly attempting to murder his wife.
Robert Bettencourt, a 60-year-old Half
Moon Bay resident, was arrested at a home
on the 700 block of Johnston Street around
7:11 p.m., according to the San Mateo
County Sheriffs Office.
Bettencourt was apparently arguing with
his wife when he pulled out a revolver and
took one shot toward her, according to the
Sheriffs Office.
Deputies were called and found the wife in
front of the residence uninjured. The gun
was found indoors on a counter and the bullet was determined to have hit a speaker
before going into the wall, according to the
Sheriffs Office.
Bettencourt was arrested for attempted
murder and transported to county jail,
according to Sheriffs Office.

Hillary Clinton: Nation needs a


growth and fairness economy
By Ken Thomas and Jill Colvin
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK Laying out her agenda to


help American workers, Hillary Rodham
Clinton said Monday that if she is elected to
the White House she will seek to build a
growth and fairness economy that would
rejuvenate wages that have remained stagnant since the Great Recession.
In her first major economic speech of her
presidential campaign, Clinton vowed to
crack down on Wall Street excess and warned
that a large field of Republican White House
hopefuls would promote tax cuts and a return
to policies that would balloon the national
debt. She singled out three GOP candidates
by name, including former Florida Gov. Jeb
Bush, whom she accused of failing to underREUTERS stand the plight of workers.

commutes sentences for 46;
presses for justice changes
By Nancy Benac
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Calling America a


nation of second chances, President Barack
Obama cut the prison sentences of 46 nonviolent drug offenders on Monday in what
the White House hopes will be just one
prong of a broader push to make the criminal justice system fairer while saving the
government money.
Fourteen of those whose sentences were
commuted had been sentenced to life in
prison and the vast majority to at least 20
years, the president said in a video released
by the White House, adding that their punishments didnt fit the crime.
These men and women were not hardened
criminals, he said, promising to lay out
more ideas on criminal justice changes during a speech to the NAACP on Tuesday in
Philadelphia.
Since Congress enacted mandatory minimum sentences for drug crimes in the 1980s,
the federal prison population has grown
from 24,000 to more than 214,000, accord-

ing to Families Against Mandatory


Minimums, a group seeking sentencing
changes.
And the costs, said Obama, are over $80
billion a year to incarcerate people who
often have only been engaged in nonviolent drug offenses.
While Obama has spoken off and on during his presidency about the need for
smarter sentencing and other justice
reforms, prospects for significant structural
change have improved recently with growing interest among Republicans in
Congress.
Congress simply cant act fast enough,
said Julie Stewart, president and founder of
Families Against Mandatory Minimums.
She said that while Obamas executive
actions have picked off some of the most
egregious sentencing inequities, significant
legislative action is needed to stop the flow
of people going to prison year in and year
out, serving too much time.
Republican support in any such effort is
critical, Stewart said, likening it to a Nixongoes-to-China moment.

Clinton said at The New
School in New York, urging Bush to speak to

food workers. They

Hillary Clinton need a raise.
Bush, during an event
in Sioux City, Iowa, said Clinton believed
that it didnt matter that 6.5 million people
were only able to work part-time instead of
holding full-time jobs. Hillary Clinton
believes that 2 percent growth, apparently
the new normal, is acceptable, Bush said.
He told reporters that Clintons policies
are going to suppress wage growth. Her
policies are a continuation of the Obama
economics which has been a complete disaster.

Walker: I will win and fight for you


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WAUKESHA, Wis. Scott Walker vowed


Monday to fight for Americas interests
abroad and for his conservative policies in
Washington, launching a 2016 Republican
presidential bid by highlighting his clashes
with labor unions as his campaign taunted
his Democratic critics.
The 47-year-old second-term governor
embraced his fighter reputation as he formally declared his candidacy in an evening
speech, his family at his side, and protesters gathered just outside the convention
hall.
We are running to serve as your president
of the United States of America, Walker
declared.

Americans deserve a
president who will fight
and win for them, he
said. You see, it doesnt
matter if youre from a
big city, a suburb or a
small town, I will fight
and win for you. Healthy
or sick, born or unborn, I
Scott Walker will fight and win for
you.
He becomes the 15th high-profile
Republican to enter the GOP presidential
contest, yet claims to occupy a unique space
in the congested field. He not only fights
for conservative principles, he says, but he
also wins elections and policy debates in a
state that typically supports Democrats.

Son of Boston police captain


charged in terror bomb plot

Around the nation

BOSTON The son of a Boston police


captain has been arrested in an FBI sting and
accused of plotting to commit terrorist acts
in support of the Islamic State group, including the setting off of pressure-cooker bombs
at an unidentified university and the slaughter
of students live online.
Alexander Ciccolos own father alerted
authorities last fall that the younger man had
a long history of mental illness and was talking about joining the Islamic State, according to two law enforcement officials who
spoke on condition of anonymity because
they were not authorized to release details.
Ciccolo, 23, of Adams, was charged in a
criminal complaint unsealed Monday with
illegal possession of a firearm for receiving
four guns July 4 from a person cooperating
with the Western Massachusetts Joint
Terrorism Task Force. Because of a drunken
driving conviction, Ciccolo was barred from
having a gun.
Ciccolos father, Robert Ciccolo, is a 27year veteran of the Boston police force.
While we were saddened and disappointed
to learn or our sons intentions, we are grateful that authorities were able to prevent any
loss of life or harm to others, Ciccolos parents said in a statement.

California clears hurdle


for state-run retirement program
SACRAMENTO California can proceed
with setting up a state-run savings program
for private-sector workers who dont have
access to retirement plans at work, under a
rule change ordered by President Barack
Obama on Monday.
The president directed the U.S. Labor
Department to make administrative changes
by the end of the year that will allow states
like California to implement their own retirement programs. The agency will have to craft
an exemption enabling states to bypass the
federal pension law, called the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act.
Senate President Pro Tem Kevin de Leon
hailed the decision to help low-wage workers
facing financial hardship as they age.
Recognizing that states are leading the
way on retirement security, President
Obamas action removes the most signification barrier to state action across the country, de Leon said in a statement. California,
and states that follow our lead, will now be
able to ensure tens of millions of hard-working men and women will have a shot at retiring with dignity.

Pentagon announces
plan aimed at lifting
ban on transgenders
By Lolita C. Baldor
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON The Pentagons current


regulations banning transgender individuals
from serving in the military are outdated,
Defense Secretary Ash Carter said Monday,
ordering a six-month study aimed at formally
ending one of the last gender- or sexualitybased barriers to military service.
Carter said he is creating a working group
that will review the policies and determine if
lifting the ban would have any impact on the
militarys ability to be ready for battle. But
he said the group will begin with the presumption that transgender people should be
able to serve openly without adverse impact
on military effectiveness and readiness,
unless and except where objective, practical
impediments are identified.
The plan, which was first reported by the
Associated Press, gives the services time to
methodically work through the legal, medical
and administrative issues and develop training to ease any transition, and senior leaders
believed six months would be sufficient.
The Defense Departments current regulations regarding transgender service members
are outdated and are causing uncertainty that
distracts commanders from our core missions, Carter said in a statement released
Monday. At a time when our troops have
learned from experience that the most
important qualification for service members
should be whether theyre able and willing to
do their job, our officers and enlisted personnel are faced with certain rules that tell

them the opposite.


Carter asked his personnel undersecretary, Brad
Carson, to lead the working group of senior military and civilian leaders to
take an objective look at
the issue, including the
costs, and determine
whether it would create
Ash Carter
any insurmountable problems that could derail the plan. The group
would also develop uniform guidelines.
During the six months, transgender individuals would still not be able to join the military, but any decisions to force out those
already serving would be referred to Carson.
One senior official said the goal was to avoid
forcing any transgender service members to
leave during that time. That official was not
authorized to discuss the matter publicly and
spoke on condition of anonymity.
Some of the key concerns involved in the
repeal of the ban include whether the military
would conduct or pay for the medical costs of
surgeries and other treatment associated with
any gender transition, as well as which physical training or testing standards transgender
individuals would be required to meet during
different stages of their transition.
Officials said the military also wants time
to tackle questions about where transgender
troops would be housed, what uniforms they
would wear, what berthing they would have on
ships, which bathrooms they would use and
whether their presence would affect the ability of small units to work well together.

Burlingame office building

Thank you Matt

Editor,
I am writing to express disagreement with the new retail-ofce building proposed for 225 California
Drive in Burlingame (Four-story
ofce project proposed in
Burlingame in the July 11 edition of
the Daily Journal). I am not against
development per sebut feel it should
be done with a broad view of the
needs of the community. The biggest
need of Burlingame right now, and in
thePeninsula as a whole, is new residential spaces. The City Council,
which seems favorably disposed
toward the new project,should at the
very least ask that it be mixed useand
include affordable apartments with
afavorable living environment (The
mechanical parking structure mentioned doesnot sound suitablefor
aresidential friendly building).
Furthermore, an ofcebuilding usually impliesa dead space at night.A
side benet to residential units isthat
a relatively dead Burlingame Avenue
nightlifewould get helpfrom a population infusion. Secondly, the design
of the buildingas presented in the
Daily Journal reminds one of a modernindustrial structure, whichis out
of sync with the more classic andelegantarchitectural style of the
Burlingame downtown as well as the
charmingSpanish style train station
across the street.We must not forget
that what is mostcharming about
Burlingame is precisely its
consistentclassic elegant lookthat
is lacking inany other downtown in
the Bay Area.

Editor,
In the July 10 edition of the Daily
Journal, Editor in Chief Jon Mays had
some kind words to say about San
Carlos Councilman Matt Grocott. As
Jon explained, Matt has been diagnosed with non-Hodgkins lymphoma. I had considered writing a letter about Matt but Jon beat me to it.
Matt has the courage to let folks know
what he is dealing with healthwise.
This can only raise awareness about
this type of cancer. Thank you Matt.
Years ago I got to know who Matt
was. Hurricane Katrina happened and
San Carlos adopted a town in
Mississippi called Pass Christian.
The Pass (as we called it) had pretty
much been wiped out by the tidal surge
created by Katrina. My wife (Chris),
myself and many people from San
Carlos traveled to Mississippi to help
out. Matt was quite involved and we
grew to know him and thus become
fond of him.
Matt has been active in San Carlos
politics for as long as I have known
him. I admire him for saying it like it
is and for sticking to his beliefs
whether they are popular or not. The
world could use more people like
Matt.
I am proud to call Matt a friend and
will always be there for him just like
he has always been there for those of
us whom are fortunate enough to live
in San Carlos. As Jon Mays mentioned in his well-written column, I
will be rooting for Matts team also.

Abandoned park
Editor,
For three quiet weeks in our little
San Mateo park I kept vigil on a baby
swing wrapped in yellow tape and
padlocked. Then came a hullabaloo
headline that Beresford Park is getting a complete and costly redesign
(City seeks funds for $2.2M playground in the July 7 edition of the
Daily Journal).
It seems as if Beresford, the jewel
in the crown westside park, is scheduled for a complete makeover, while
Concars tiny broken swing, one of
only two baby swings and two regular
ones, remains in yellow baby
bunting.
Has it been abandoned?

Engaging residents,
preparing for the future
Editor,
The headline on an article you ran in
the July 8 edition of the Daily Journal
is misleading. It reads, Burlingame
considers tax measure: Bond could pay
for new community center, Bayfront
park, other improvements. As the
article explains, our Burlingame City
Council heard a report from a nancial
consultant on different options for
paying for a variety of potential city
improvements, but we are nowhere
near deciding if and how to nance
any of them.
After more than a year of engagement with residents, our city has identied about $100 million in capital
improvement projects that include a
downtown parking garage, a new community center, upgrading the rest of
the downtown streetscape, City Hall
safety improvements and much more.
We realize we cant do all of these
things and we are committed to

Finding better ways to


do work without driving
Editor,
I want to agree with Jon Mays take
on toll lanes (in the June 26 edition
of the Daily Journal) and disagree with
Mr. Andrew Laurences take in his letter (in the July 3 edition of the Daily
Journal).
Although carpool lanes encourage
people to share rides, express lanes
and toll lanes do not, unless the other
lanes are so slow that they force people to consider carpooling. Other than
that, the toll lanes allow people who
are willing to pay to get in the carpool lanes even if they drive alone.
The issue here is not about the toll
lanes or the carpool lanes. It is about
how to get people to nd better ways
to do their work without getting on
the road in the rst place.
Everything has a limit, including
the roads and the amount of vehicles
on them. Think about it, if there are as
much people willing to pay and if
there are enough carpools to even not
allow the single payers to come in,
then what do you do? We may eventually get there.
It troubles me that you see all these
buses carrying workers to high-tech
companies on the road. Are we failing
to nd ways where work can be done
without needing them to travel that
distance?How about creating satellite
cities or workplaces where no one
needs to travel, or rail systems, mass
transits, hyperloops, etc. The pricing
on toll lanes goes up with congestion.Is this goal not limited, and who
does it serve in the short term?The
ones willing and/or able to pay.Is
this right?There have to be better
ways.

he law of impermanence is reflected everywhere: in the life cycle of a star or a planet, a physical body, a tree, a flower, in the
rise and fall of nations, political systems and civilizations. Eckhart Tolle. This particularly holds true for
the inevitable impermanence of political parties that
determine the fate of world nations.
Take, for example, the fact that our country alone has
witnessed more than 30 parties rise and fall over the
last two and a half centuries. The determining factors
have revealed themselves in many forms ranging
from swiftly changing demographics to corruption,
moral persuasion and, sometimes, a countrys collective desire for new representation. I would argue that
the linchpin at the core of a
nations political party system is a citizens desire to
hold their government
accountable.
We have seen the oppressive
manifestations of political
systems in which only one
dominant political party
exists. Communist nations
such as China, North Korea
and Cuba have each employed
single-party systems in which
other parties are outlawed. It
Jonathan Madison
comes as no coincidence that
the people of these nations have experienced an unfathomable amount of human rights violations and repressive policies policies that do not allow for the basic
freedoms you and I possess each day. One major factor
is that there is no party to challenge or compete with
the policies of the single and dominant party. Needless
to say, the political systems adopted in these countries
do not reflect the policies of our nation. Here is why I
mention it.
The California Legislature was governed by a
Democratic supermajority for years, leaving the
Republican party in a virtually irrelevant state. In
essence, the Democratic Partys dominance in
California allowed our states public policies to be governed by one party without any checks on its power.
This, of course, was a recipe for disaster. We witnessed
it culminate in the form of higher taxes, spikes in
property crimes and, most importantly, widespread corruption. In the last year alone, four elected members
or 15 percent of the Democratic-controlled state Senate
were arrested or charged with criminal activity.
Perhaps that is one of the reasons the citizens of our
great state decided to place a check on the Democratcontrolled Legislature and dismantled its supermajority
in November 2014. Today, Republicans control more
than one-third of the seats in the state Senate and
Assembly. Regardless of your political ideology or
affiliation, we can all agree that government functions
best when it does not have unfettered discretion and
unchecked power.
As loud and clear as voters were last year from the
ballot booths in November, it is quite clear that voters
are giving political parties another message: decline
to state. Thats right, independent voters currently
amount to 23. 1 percent of registered voters more
than any time in our states history. Here is why it matters.
As I mentioned earlier, citizens have decided to part
from political parties several times throughout the last
two and a half centuries. Often, they would flock to a
new party making heroic promises of a better day. Quite
frankly, people are just not buying it like they once
did. Take, for example, the lack of enthusiasm in the
upcoming presidential election cycle. Perhaps a number
of engaged citizens have had enough of the bickering
from both parties, and have decided to part from the ideological divide.
As many of my readers know, I am a Republican
because I believe in the power of individuals more than
in the power of a federal government. That being said,
there will likely come a day when the parties you and I
know no longer exist. Perhaps they will come in the
form of different names just as the spirit of the
Federalist and Anti-Federalist parties continues to flow
in part through our Democratic and Republican parties.
Or, perhaps we will decide to part ways with dominant
parties altogether at some point. In either case, the
most important factor ought to be holding our government accountable for our collective best interest.

NEW YORK A new agreement


between Greece and its lenders helped
lift the stock market on Monday,
extending the markets winning streak
to a third day. The deal for a new loan
package is aimed at keeping the country in the euro, but many hurdles
remain.
Major indexes headed higher at the
opening bell, following solid gains in
Europe, then kept climbing throughout
the afternoon. Nearly three stocks rose
for every one that fell on the New York
Stock Exchange, and every sector in
the S&P 500 finished with gains.
Nine hours after a self-imposed deadline passed, European officials
announced the breakthrough on Greece
early Monday. The tentative agreement
removed an immediate threat that the
country would default on its debts and
leave the euro. In exchange for a threeyear loan program, the deal requires
Greeces parliament to pass tax
increases and other key demands from
its lenders into law by Wednesday.
Our markets have reason to cheer,
said Tim Dreiling, senior portfolio
manager at the U.S. Banks Private
Client Reserve. Its a reprieve from

worry for a few days at least.


The Standard & Poors 500 index
gained 22.98 points, or 1.1 percent, to
2,099.60.
The Dow Jones industrial average
climbed 217.27, or 1.2 percent, to
17,977.68, while the Nasdaq gained
73.82, or 1.5 percent, to 5,071.51.
Major markets in Europe rallied on
the news. Germanys DAX climbed 1.5
percent and Frances CAC 40 surged 1.9
percent. Britains FTSE 100 finished
with a gain of 1 percent.
Worries over Greece and China have
buffeted markets in recent weeks.
Barring any worrying news out of
either country, investors will likely
shift their attention to earnings reports
as a parade of major corporations turn
in second-quarter results.
JPMorgan Chase, Johnson &

China accuses trading firms of manipulating stocks


By Joe McDonald
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BEIJING Authorities accused securities


firms of manipulating stock prices during
Chinas market plunge and launched a crackdown Monday against unlicensed companies that financed speculative trading.
The moves appeared to be aimed at
deflecting blame from the ruling
Communist Party for trillions of dollars in
investor losses as Chinas market benchmark plummeted 30 percent over the past
month.
They came as drastic official efforts over
the past two weeks including a ban on sales
by executives and big shareholders
appeared to at least temporarily stop the
decline that wiped out $3. 8 trillion in
investor wealth.

Electrical engineer seeks


govt probe of Lexus acceleration
DETROIT An electrical engineer with a
doctorate degree from Stanford University
has asked U.S. safety regulators to investigate low-speed unintended acceleration in
Toyota and Lexus automobiles.
Gopal Raghavan of Thousand Oaks,
California, filed a petition with the National
Highway Traffic Safety Administration alleging that his 2009 Lexus ES350 luxury sedan
surged suddenly in a parking lot, crashing
into some bushes and smashing the front of
the car. The agency says in documents posted Monday that it will review the petition
and decide whether to open an investigation.
Its the latest in a string of claims that

On Monday, the benchmark Shanghai


Composite Index closed up 2.4 percent for
its third straight daily gain but still was 23
percent below its June 12 peak.
Investigators have found evidence to
suspect that individual trading companies
are illegally manipulating securities and
futures exchanges, the police ministry said
late Sunday. Its one-sentence statement said
a criminal investigation was underway but
gave no details of which firms were targeted.
On Monday, the securities regulator
ordered brokerages to sever ties with unlicensed companies that lend money to
finance trading.

The stock market boom began last year
after the state press said shares were cheap,
which led investors to believe Beijing
would intervene to prop up prices if needed.
The collapse came after changes in banking
regulations made investors suspect Beijing
might withdraw its support. Regulators also
tightened controls on lending to finance
trading.
Novice investors who rushed into the
market near the peak have suffered heavy
losses, souring sentiment toward stock
investment.
The price collapse could frustrate
Communist Party plans to encourage the
public to buy stocks and to raise money for
state companies to pay off debts and
become more competitive.
More than 1,000 of the 2,802 companies

traded on the mainlands exchanges in


Shanghai and Shenzhen also have suspended trading in their shares following the
plunge in prices. That has left small
investors locked into shares that some are
under pressure to sell to repay loans.
It remains to be seen how the market
holds up once all the artificial impediments
to selling are withdrawn, said Carl B.
Weinberg of High Frequency Economics in
a report.
Official media have blamed the market
slide on short-selling, rumors and misconduct, possibly by foreign investors.
On Monday, the securities regulator
ordered brokerages to sever ties with unlicensed companies it said were providing
loans to finance trading and were given
access to customers in violation of regulations.

It was the way kids draw it up


in the backyard when dreaming
of that championship moment.
The Burlingame Dragons FC
closed their regular season Sunday
at Burlingame High School with a
dazzling finish, when forward
Khalid Arramdani scored in the
86th minute to give the green-

and-black the USL PDL Southwest Division championship


with a 1-0 win over the San Antonio Misioneros.
It was relief, adulation, everything, Dragons head
coach Dana Taylor said.
Entering into play, Burlingame trailed the Ventura County
Fusion in the Southwest standings. Had the Dragons tied
San Antonio, they would have finished deadlocked atop the
division with Ventura. In that scenario, however, Ventura
would have won the division title after winning the season
series with Burlingame.
We keep stressing on the guys, as we have all year, its the
body of work, Taylor said. If wed tied the game and hadnt won

the division crown, as long as we did everything in our power


and gave our best effort, thats all we can ask of the game.
With the win, the Dragons will host Saturdays playoff
opener against Ventura. Through three regular-season
games, the Dragons posted a 0-1-2 record against the
Fusion, who tabbed a May 29 victory by a score of 3-0,
marking the highest single-game scoring output against
the Dragons this season.

new title. Todd Frazier Little League
World Series star, Frank Sinatra aficionado
is baseballs new King of Swing.
The Jersey boy who never seems to get
rattled waited until his very last swing
three times, no less to win the All-Star
Home Run Derby in his home ballpark on
Monday night.
Pressure? Sure didnt show it.
The Reds third baseman became only the
second player to win the long-ball competition on his home field Monday night, topping Dodgers rookie Joc Pederson 15-14
with another late surge and one last perfectly timed swing.
No pressure here with these fans, he
said, after accepting the crossed-bats trophy
to one more standing ovation at Great
American Ball Park.
Frazier joined the Cubs Ryne Sandberg for
home-field homer titles the Hall of Fame
second baseman did it at Wrigley Field in
1990. After finishing second last year in
Minneapolis, this one was as sweet as that
winning swing.
That pushed me a lot, Frazier said. I
wanted to get back here. Id been working in
the offseason a little bit. Im just glad it was
in Cincinnati and they could enjoy it with
me.
Pederson was trying to become the first
rookie since Wally Joyner in 1986 to win or
share the title. He reached the final round by
knocking off Albert Pujols, who provided a
blast after making the All-Star team for the
first time in five years.
Im happy for Todd, especially being
able to do it in front of his fans, Pujols
said. Its his night. He deserves it. I just
hope the fans were pleased and happy with
the performance every single guy did. The
right guy won, too.

f you have followed the game of


baseball for any length of time,
youve seen how the game has
transformed from a game of talent evaluation to a game of numbers. Longtime
scouts are being replaced by math and
economic majors in front ofces around
Major League Baseball, introducing new
numbers, new acronyms and algorithms
into a game that was, for so long, based
on a scouts discerning eye.
Despite the proliferation of WAR

replacement), FIP
(elding independent of pitching) and
WPA (win probability added), the
math geeks have
yet to develop an
algorithm that can
measure a players
tenacity and his
competitiveness. Its those attributes
that set apart a good player from an AllStar player.
Oakland As pitcher Sonny Gray is one
of those pitchers. In addition to having
superb numbers, he also has the mentality to want to dominate when he is on the
mound. I have to admit, my Gray knowledge is limited, but Sunday morning, as I
drove home from visiting my mom in the

Djokovic closing in on rivals Federer, Nadal


By Howard Fendrich
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LONDON A day after winning Wimbledon


for a ninth Grand Slam title, moving within
five of Rafael Nadals total and putting him
more than halfway to Roger Federers record of
17, Novak Djokovic was asked about the possibility of catching his two rivals.
He exhaled.
I dont want to say its too early to talk
about it, Djokovic began, then interrupted
himself with a laugh. I mean, its probably
the right time to talk about it.

It sure is.
The No. 1-ranked Djokovic has firmly
established his bona fides as one of the greats
of the game by just about any measure, including his three championships at Wimbledon,
five at the Australian Open, and one at the U.S.
Open. By getting to Grand Slam title No. 9, he
pushed ahead of quite a group of guys with
eight: Andre Agassi, Jimmy Connors, Ivan
Lendl, Fred Perry, Ken Rosewall. Plus,
Djokovic is 28, and by all accounts only getting better.
As for chasing the numbers put up by contemporaries Federer and Nadal?

Im still far, far away from that. Its still a


long way ahead, Djokovic said Monday at the
All England Club, about 18 hours after earning
his third Wimbledon championship, and second in a row, with a 7-6 (1), 6-7 (10), 6-4, 6-3
victory over second-ranked Federer. Winning
one Grand Slam, I know what it takes. Its a lot
of effort. A lot of things have to come together. So to reach these two guys would be something incredible. But honestly, Im not thinking about it now.
Instead, Djokovic said, he derives motivation from his passion and love for the sport,
and just the joy that I find in playing tennis,

along with a sense of responsibility he feels


to keep going and bring joy to myself and to
those closest to him, including his wife and
their 8-month-old son, Stefan.
Djokovic also said he feels like I have
many years in front of me.
Thats probably true, although it will not
be easy to maintain the pace he established
recently. Over the past 20 Grand Slam tournaments, Djokovic has reached 15 finals
a Federeresque rate and won eight. And

U.S., Panama play to 1-1 draw in CONCACAF Gold Cup match


By Dave Skretta
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

PETER G. AIKEN/USA TODAY SPORTS

USA goal keeper Jaime Penedo makes a


diving save against Panama Monday night.

KANSAS CITY, Kan. Michael Bradley


scored the equalizer early in the second half,
helping the United States to a 1-1 draw with
Panama on Monday night and wrapping up a
sluggish but unbeaten trip through group
play in the CONCACAF Gold Cup.
Blas Perez scored in the 34th minute to
give Panama (0-1-2) the lead on a hot, humid
night in the Midwest, and for a while it
looked as if that would be enough.
But after second-half substitutions Clint
Dempsey and DeAndre Yedlin energized the
Americans (2-0-1), the U.S. finally began to
attack. Alejandro Bedoyas perfect cross
wound up on the right foot of Bradley, who
poked the equalizer into the net in the 55th
minute for his 14th international goal.
Already assured of first place in Group A,
the U.S. improved to 30-1-3 in Gold Cup
group play. But none of the Americans three
matches in this years Gold Cup, including a

2-1 victory over Honduras and a 1-0 win over


Haiti, left coach Jurgen Klinsmann brimming
with confidence as they head into their quarterfinal Saturday in Baltimore.
Panama must await the outcome of the
remaining group matches this week to know
whether a pair of draws will be enough to
advance.
If not, the U.S. will once again crippled
Panamas hopes.
Two years ago, the Americans beat Los
Canaleros 1-0 in the Gold Cup final. Three
months later, Graham Zusi and Aron
Johannsson scored in second-half stoppage
time to deny Panama a spot in the World Cup
in Brazil a berth that wound up going to
Mexico.
For a while, it appeared that Panama might
finally get some payback.
Needing a win to assure advancement,
Panama pressed the attack early against the
weary, sluggish Americans. Luis Tejada was
called offside in the opening minutes after
putting a shot in the back of the net, and

goalkeeper Brad Guzan had to make a spectacular save of a corner kick that nearly turned
into an own goal off Chris Wondolowski.
Panama finally broke through when Tejada
slipped past Ventura Alvarado and crossed to
Perez running between the center backs. The
FC Dallas striker chipped it in for his 38th
international goal, silencing a sellout crowd
of 18,467 at Sporting Park.
It left the U.S. playing from behind for the
first time this tournament.
In need of a spark, Klinsmann substituted
in Yedlin and Dempsey who had scored all
three American goals in their first two victories at the start of the second half.
Right away, their speed and creativity made
a difference.
In the 55th minute, Dempsey took a pass
from Gyasi Zardes while falling with his
back to the goal, and poked it wide to
Bedoya. He sent a perfect cross to Bradley,
running from his spot in the midfield, and
the captain knocked it for his second career
Gold Cup goal.

ST. ANDREWS, Scotland


Laura Davies was inducted
into the World Golf Hall of
Fame on Monday, even
though she wasnt around to

A four-hour flight delay
out of Philadelphia forced
her to miss the induction.
In a rush to the University

when her pre-recorded video
came on, the signal went out
and she missed her speech
and that of Mark OMeara.
She finally made it to the
reception, a surprise to hundreds of guests who thought
she had abandoned efforts to
get there.
Not her place in the Hall

with four major titles, more
than 70 wins around the

All-Star face-off between Greinke, Keuchel


forfeit a minimum $71
million over the next
three years and become a
free agent again.
Given his season, he
figures to receive lucrative
offers.
These numbers hes
putting up are really,
Dallas Keuchel really unbelievable, NL
manager Bruce Bochy
said Monday.
Keuchel, 27, is 11-4 with a 2.23 ERA. Since
starting his big league career 9-18 in 2012 and
13, he is 23-13.
He becomes Houstons fourth All-Star starting pitcher after J.R. Richard (1980), Mike
Scott (1987) and Roger Clemens (2004).

The AL will open the game with an all


right-handed-hitting lineup for the first
time; the only previous team to do that was
the NL for the first of two games in 1962.
This is the first time the AL starting lineup
did not have at least one player from
Boston or the New York Yankees.
Bochy said having the decision to have the
winning All-Star teams league gain homefield advantage in the World Series has
increased the intensity of the game. Bochys
Giants opened at home in 2010 and 12 and
went on to four game sweeps, then started at
Kansas City last year and became the first visitor to win a Game 7 since 1979.
Your priority is not to get everybody in
as much as it used to be, he said. There is
a lot at stake.

from Los Angeles to Great American Ball Park.
My wife is less than three weeks until having a kid, he said of Emily. She found a way
to get out here even though she probably
shouldnt have. That just shows how excited
the family is.
A 31-year-old Dodgers right-hander with
a big league-best 1.39 ERA, Greinke starts

faced his biggest test. Pederson went first


and matched the highest total of the night
with 14 homers. Frazier needed a late surge
to pull even, tying him with 11 seconds
left in his round.
Hed hit enough long homers to earn an
extra 30 seconds, giving him a chance to
take a few deep breaths, regroup and refocus.
On the first pitch from brother Charlie in
extra time, Frazier puffed his cheeks and
exhaled as he hit one solidly, then mouthed
the words Thats gone as the ball headed
for the left field stands. The ballpark was
full of fans with arms raised even before the
ball landed.
Hows that?
It was a great environment, Pederson
said. It was extremely humbling being out
there with Prince Fielder, Albert Pujols and
Josh Donaldson.
And, of course, it ended with a little more
Sinatra.
Frazier uses Fly Me To The Moon as his
music when he walks to the batters box
during games, and it greeted each of his
rounds on Monday. When hed clinched the
title, the ballpark rocked with I Did It My
Way.
I had no clue they were going to do
that, Frazier said. That was pretty nice.
With that, Frazier made it an AllCincinnati All-Star event so far. Cubs
catcher Kyle Schwarber, a Reds fan who
grew up in nearby Middletown, Ohio, was
the MVP of the Futures Game on Sunday
with a two-run triple.

CINCINNATI Darren ODay can count


his career saves on the fingers of both hands
only 10 digits needed to sum up his eight
years of relief work in the majors. Kelvin
Herrera needs only one hand to tally his
saves total.
No matter. Managers know the value of
having a bullpen full of dependable setup
men and specialists who can hold a lead long
enough to bring in the big-name closer, and
thats reflected in these All-Star Game rosters.
People are noticing that its similar to
being a closer, said ODay, the sidearming
righty who usually pitches the seventh or
eighth inning for the Baltimore Orioles.
You go out there and get three outs, four
outs. Sometimes you might even have a
harder job than a closer.
I wouldnt say we do the same thing, but
its similar.
And in many ways, just as valuable. An
All-Star closer is of little use if he rarely gets
to pitch with a lead because the rest of the
bullpen is leaky.
You have to have those guys, Cardinals
closer Trevor Rosenthal said. Theyre
invaluable.
Some of those guys might get to show off
at Great American Ball Park on Tuesday
night, well before any save situations develop.
In the last six years, there have been 17
relievers picked as All-Stars who had fewer
than five saves at midseason, according to
STATS. By comparison, there were only 10
such players chosen from 2001-09, and only

NICK TURCHIARO/USA TODAY SPORTS

Darren ODay was named an AL All-Star,


despite earning just two saves this season.
six such players from 1971-2000.
Especially on an All-Star team, you want
to highlight closers, American League manager Ned Yost of Kansas City said. But I
think setup men have become more prominent in the game, this year and last year, too.
We did take a couple of premier setup men.
There were four relievers with fewer than
five saves in the All-Star game last year: Pat
Neshek, Tyler Clippard, Dellin Betances and
Tony Watson. ODay and Herrera fit the profile this year.
Betances has seven saves this year after
filling in as the Yankees closer when
Andrew Miller was injured, but he still qualifies in the way hes used.
Nobody questions the value of those setup
guys in Cincinnati. The Reds had a blueprint
for bullpen success in 1990, when they won

the World Series behind the Nasty Boys trio


of Norm Charlton, Rob Dibble and Randy
Myers.
This year, theyve got one of the most
electric closers in the game with All-Star
Aroldis Chapman, who throws 103 mph and
has blown only one save chance. But the
lack of a dependable setup man has left him
with only 19 such chances.
The Cardinals have invested in their
bullpen over the years, helping to define
how its used nowadays. Manager Mike
Matheny emphasized the setup role on his
All-Star team last year.
I think everyone understands the importance of bullpen roles beyond the closer in
todays game, and I was happy to reward
some of those pitchers last season,
Matheny said. If youre one of the best at
what you do at your position, you deserve to
be an All-Star.
Yosts Royals are a good example of how
having a deep, dependable bullpen can take a
team far.
Its effective if youve got three guys who
are lockdown guys, ODay said. You can
dominate. I keep complimenting the
Royals, but what they did during the playoffs last year was shorten the game to six
innings.
Even though theyre getting more attention in All-Star selections, those setup guys
are still hoping that they can someday move
into a ninth-inning role.
Yeah, Id love to do it, ODay said. Its
a rush. I did it in college and all throughout
the minors. Ive done it filling in for guys
when they need a day off. Its a lot of fun,
except when its extra innings on the road
and youre going to warm up seven times.

Rough play is riskier than


heading in youth soccer
CHICAGO Heading takes the
heat in youth soccer, but a study
says limiting rough play might be
a better way to prevent concussions and other injuries.
The nine-year look at U.S. high
school games found that over 1 in 4
concussions occurred when players
used their head to hit the ball. But
more than half of these headingrelated concussions were caused by
collisions with another player
rather than with the ball. These
included head-to-head, elbow-tohead and shoulder-to-head contact.
Dawn Comstock is a University
of Colorado public health
researcher who led the study. She
says soccer rules prohibit most
player-to-player contact and notes
that rough play has become more
common at all levels of the game.
The study was published Monday
in the journal JAMA Pediatrics.

player for the Dragons all year.
Listed as a defender, he has
emerged more as an attacker. His
second-half goal in the 68th
minute Saturday was a dazzling
solo effort, in which he waggled
around the outside through a double team with great agility before
darting toward the mark to convert
a cross-goal score.
Hes so strong on the ball and
hes so fast, Razo said. With that
combination, there are not too

many defenders that can hold him


off. Hes so dangerous.
Uche and Razo have developed a
strong on-field chemistry that
Taylor said was immediate from the
start of training camp in January.
The duo showed off the chemistry
earlier in the half Saturday after
Taylor addressed the need for better
offensive distribution in the halftime locker room.
The tandem obliged their coach in
the 62nd minute, as Razo battled for

Wimbledon champion.
It was pointed out to Djokovic
that he is the only player who has
beaten seven-time Wimbledon
champion Federer on the grass of
the All England Club, as well as
nine-time French Open champion
Nadal on the red clay of Roland
Garros.
And Djokovic happened to do it
in the span of a little more than a
month.
That is a great achievement,
now that you mention it,
Djokovic said, leaning back in his
chair. I didnt think about it, but it
feels pretty good. Its probably an
ultimate challenge to win against
those two guys on their most preferred surfaces.
Terrific as Djokovic is owner
of the best return in tennis; a
genius along the baseline, thanks
in part to a speedy, sliding, bodycontorting style that lets him get
to nearly every ball he is intent
on improving.
Thats why he brought aboard
Boris Becker as a second coach, for
example, to help his mental toughness and serve, among other
things.
Djokovics serve is more of an
possession deep in BYU territory.
With a defender crawling up his
back, Razo stonewalled him and
managed to find Uche upfield. Uche
immediately found an outlet to Cox,
who just missed, firing a shot just
over the crossbar from 25 yards out.
This whole season, weve gone
through tons and tons of players
until weve finally got it down to
this small group of guys, Uche
said. And were really starting to
build chemistry and were figuring
out how to build the finishing
touches.
Razo agreed about the Dragons
strong chemistry up front.
Definitely, Razo said. With all
our forwards, we have a lot of chemistry with them. From practice, we
just merge that into the game.
Razo got the Dragons on the
board in the first half Saturday on
a well-timed pass from Josh
Morton, a Cal product. Morton
navigated the sideline from midfield and turned a corner to thread
the needle into the box to a sprinting Razo, who punched it into the
middle of the goal.
Were probably one of the fastest
teams in the country right now,

asset than ever he saved six of
seven break points Sunday and
now he has designs on getting to
the net more often.
There is always something I
can work on, Djokovic said, and
I know I can get my game to a
higher level.
Razo said. We were able to capitalize on the speed that we have. We
were able to put teams under pressure. Thats what we do.
It is by design the Dragons are
showing such speed and timing
heading into the playoffs. Training
camp opened with some grueling
weeks back in January, according to
Razo. But the payoff came Sunday
night when the front row commanded that fairy-tale game-winner to
clinch the division crown.
Im not going to lie, the first two
or three weeks were pretty hard, getting used to the running, Razo said.
The first two or three weeks were
awful. I think once the summer came
along we were able to adjust to the
game. I feel fine now.
The USL PDL playoffs open
Saturday, with Burlingame hosting
Ventura at Burlingame High School
at 2 p.m. Win or lose, it will mark
the final home game of the year for
the Dragons. Saturdays winner
advances to the Elite 8 the following Saturday.
Burlingame closes the regular season with a 10-1-3 record, accruing
33 points. Seven of Burlingames
victories came by way of shutout.

Gray was among the American League leaders in nearly every pitching category. His
ERA of 2.04 is rst in the AL, his 10 wins
puts him in a tie for third, one win behind
the leaders. His 108 strikeouts is good for
10th in the league and his record of 10-3
gives him the fourth-best win-loss percentage in the junior circuit.
Not bad for a guy one national talking
head believed was no better than a middleof-the-rotation pitcher. When Gray was
called up early in the 2013 season and got
off to a good start, ESPNs Keith Law went
on one of the local radio stations to talk
about Gray. At the time, Law who is in
the new school camp of sabermetrics
said Gray could be a nice little player, but no
better than a No. 2 or No. 3 starter.
What Laws numbers fail to take into
account is Grays will to win. This guy has

Lin looking for stability with Hornets

Tuesday July 14, 2015

By Steve Reed
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CHARLOTTE, N.C. Point guard


Jeremy Lin is in search of some stability with the Charlotte Hornets.
Lin said he has no regrets about
leaving the New York Knicks after
the 2012 season to sign with the
Houston Rockets during his introductory press conference Monday.
But the 26-year-old, one-year sensation made it pretty clear hes
eager to find the right fit.
Three teams removed from
Linsanity fame, Lin believes he
may have found it with the Hornets.
Lin said he walked away excited
after an in-depth conversation with
Hornets coach Steve Clifford about
how the team plans to use him
talks that the five-year NBA veteran said were few and far between
with previous organizations.

ninth inning Sunday but so does having


a tenacious mindset. The greats dont like to
be beaten on a day, in game or on a
pitch.
Gray still has a long way to go to be
great, but he is certainly on the right path.
It also looks like he could be a mainstay
atop the Oakland rotation for years to come.
In an era where pitching wins have been
pooh-poohed and winning an offensive
Triple Crown is downplayed, its nice to see
that the numbers dont tell the entire story.
***
While I may not be an expert in every
sport, I do believe I have seen enough during my lifetime to make more than informed
opinion on nearly any sports-related topic.
Such as this one: With her win of the
Wimbledon championship Saturday, Serena
Williams is arguably the greatest female
tennis player of all time. Granted, I dont go
back to the pre-Open days, when the major
tennis championships were only lled with
amateur players.
But I did come up during the Martina
Navratilova and Chris Evert era, which transitioned into the Stef Graf-Monica Seles
rivalry and now on to Williams. Saturday,
Williams, at the age of 33, won her fourth
straight major championship she won
the 2014 U.S. Open and has since added the
2015 Australian, French and now
Wimbledon titles to give her the Serena
Slam the term coined for holding all
four titles over a two-year period.
But a win at the U.S. Open in late Augustearly September would give Williams the
actual Grand Slam winning all four major
titles in one calendar year. Graf was the last

Just having that open line of communication early and being proactive
about it was very big for me, said
Lin, who signed a two-year, $4.37
million contract last week.
The 6-foot-3 Lin said he
believes Clifford will give him an
opportunity to do the things he
did in the second half of the 201112 season with the New York
Knicks, where he turned from a
waiver-wire pickup to a late season phenomenon with a knack for
big shots and solid production,
averaging 14.4 points per game.
Lin left New York to sign a threeyear, $25 million with Houston
after that season, but his playing
time and production decreased during his two seasons with the
Rockets and was later traded to the
Los Angeles Lakers.
He never quite fit in there, either.
I want to get back to what

to do it in 1988. A win at the U.S. Open


would also pull Williams into a tie with Graf
for most career major titles and only two
behind the legendary Margaret Court.
Right now, when most players are thinking retirement, Williams is at the top of her
game. Her power in unmatched. She simply
bludgeons opponents into submission.
I remember when Venus Williams,
Serenas older sister, was rocketing up the
tennis ladder. After winning one of her early
major titles, a reporter asked her father,
Richard, about his eldest daughter.
Richard Williams went on to say, essentially, wait until Serena gets rolling, shell
be better than Venus and just about every
other player.
Turns out father knows best.

makes me what I am as a player,


which is being aggressive, being
on the attack and always charging
toward the rim, Lin said. I think
that will help create easier shots
for this team.
Thats what Clifford is counting
on.
The Hornets were last in the NBA
in 3-point shooting in 2014-15 and
the team has made three pre-draft
trades with that in mind.
Lin also fills that need.
One, Jeremy has the ability to
make the 3, but two, he is a playmaker and has the ability to create
offense for himself and his teammates, Clifford said.
Lin is also excited about the idea
of playing for the Hornets and living in Charlotte, one of his favorite
NBA cities and one he refers to as
the East Coast version of his hometown Palo Alto, California.

vents county jails from holding criminals
for extra time just so they can be deported.
Ammianos law coupled with a federal
magistrate judges ruling in Oregon last
year that keeping individuals in custody
based solely on a federal immigration
detainer was a violation of the Fourth
Amendment caused the San Mateo County
Sheriffs Office to change its policy related
to illegal immigrants in May 2014.
Prior to that, the county would honor
ICEs request to keep a suspect jailed an
additional 48 hours after they should have
been released, Munks said.
It wasnt clear at the time, however,
whether the detainers were mandatory.
We were trying to clarify what the rules
were and it was hard to get an answer,
Munks said about sheriffs officials across
the state trying to understand Homeland
Security policies.
At one time, about 10 percent of San
Mateo Countys jail population had federal
detainers.
A new Homeland Security policy called
the Priority Enforcement Program is currently being rolled out.
Under the program, sheriffs officials will
be notified of who ICE wants to detain and
will be told when the suspect is due to be
released from jail.
It will be up to the feds to come and grab

them, Munks said.
When the state Legislature passed
Ammianos bill it declared: State and local
law enforcement agencies are not reimbursed by the federal government for the full
cost of responding to a detainer, which can
include, but is not limited to, extended
detention time and the administrative costs
of tracking and responding to detainers.
The detainers had no requirement for a
warrant and no established standard of
proof, such as reasonable suspicion or
probable cause, according to the state
Legislature.
If an individual has a federal deportation
warrant, they will be booked into jail
accordingly, Manheimer said.
But the feds dont want to go the warrant
route, Munks said, because it means
approval from a judge must be obtained in
every single case.
The murder of Kathryn Steinle in San
Francisco by Lopez-Sanchez has challenged
the San Franciscos sanctuary policy as federal officials have denounced the Sheriffs
Department for not honoring its request to
detain him, a felon from Mexico, for deportation.
Lopez-Sanchez, 45, confessed to killing
Steinle as she walked with her father along
the Embarcadero waterfront. He was deported five times back to Mexico over a 20-year
period for a variety of crimes including an
arrest in San Francisco in 1995 for buying
$20 worth of marijuana. He failed to show
up to court, though, and was issued a bench
warrant.
He was released back to San Francisco
properly maintained.
Maltbie said it was likely only a vote of
the people that could change the parks status and that he had full confidence city staff
could properly maintain the park.
Bob Black, a 50-year San Carlos resident,
said the potential purchase represents the
last, best chance to find a balance between
development and open space in the city.
The bond measure needed four of the five
councilmembers to approve it.
Councilman Matt Grocott said last week

THE DAILY JOURNAL

March 26 on the 1995 drug charge after


serving the prior four years in prison for an
arrest in Texas.
The case against him was dropped by the
San Francisco District Attorneys Office
March 27, however, because it was an old,
minor offense.
ICE issued a detainer on Lopez-Sanchez
the same day. He was released April 15 by
the San Francisco Sheriffs Department
without a notification to ICE and allegedly
killed Steinle July 1.
San Franciscos sanctuary policy has
been criticized by one of its own, U.S. Sen.
Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., for ignoring
the federal request to detain Lopez-Sanchez.
I strongly believe that an undocumented
individual, convicted of multiple felonies
he was still weighing the merits of the purchase and whether the land might benefit
the city more if developed because of the
extra property taxes it would reap.
Monday night, however, he voted yes on
a resolution to purchase the land and an
ordinance to put it on the November ballot.
The council voted 5-0 without any discussion after closing the public hearing.
It is currently estimated that property
owners would pay an average of just under
$20 per $100,000 of assessed value per year
for the 30-year period during which the
bonds would be outstanding. At a cost of
$20 per $100,000 of assessed value, the
average San Carlos residential property
owner would pay an additional $118 in
annual property taxes if the bond measure is
passed, according to a staff report by Elaine
Costello and Kristen Elderson, the projects
special director and analyst.
According to Godbe Research, 65 percent
of likely voters support a potential bond
measure, 9 percent are undecided and 26 percent are opposed.
The measure will need 66.7 percent support to pass.

and with a detainer request from ICE, should


not have been released. We should focus on
deporting convicted criminals, not setting
them loose on our streets, Feinstein wrote
in a letter to San Francisco Mayor Ed Lee.
But it was Feinstein that signed legislation in 1985 making San Francisco a sanctuary for immigrant refugees from Central
America.
The law was expanded in 1989, when the
city passed the City and County of Refuge
ordinance, also known as the Sanctuary
ordinance, which prohibits city employees
from helping ICE with immigration investigations or arrests unless such help is
required by federal or state law or a warrant.
While San Francisco officials may be taking a fresh look at its sanctuary policies,
there will be little change in San Mateo
County in relation to immigration status.
Steinles murder is having an impact on
cities and counties that adopted sanctuary
policies but not on San Mateo County,
Munks said.
They must find a way to balance public
safety versus the political positions they
have adopted, Munks said about cities with
sanctuary policies.
For Munks, its all about public safety.
We have a bright line in the community.
We dont work with ICE to round up families. We dont want to create a situation
where people are afraid to call 911 to report
a crime, Munks said.

Study says cancer in


moms a rare result
from prenatal tests
By Lindsey Tanner
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CHICAGO For pregnant


women, abnormal results from
certain prenatal tests may signal
that something is wrong with
the moms-to-be, not the fetus, a
preliminary study suggests.
Very rarely, these results may
indicate cancer in the women when
follow-up testing shows the fetus
is healthy.
The noninvasive tests are
increasingly being used to detect
fetal chromosome abnormalities,
including Down syndrome. They
test pregnant womens blood,
which contain small amounts of
fetal DNA. But cancer is among
conditions that can cause results
that mistakenly indicate an abnormality in the fetus, the researchers
say. The results are not definitive,
although smaller studies have had
similar findings.
Some highlights from the
research,
published
online
Monday in the Journal of the
American Medical Association.

THE DETAILS
The study involved blood tests
from more than 100,000 women,
processed over nearly three years
by a Redwood City laboratory.
Nearly 4,000 women, or about 3

percent, had results suggesting


fetal chromosome abnormalities.
In 10 cases, the babies turned out
to be healthy but the women were
later diagnosed with cancer,
including lymphoma, leukemia
and colon cancer.
The study focused on eight of
these women, who were diagnosed
within weeks to several months of
the test.
Most had prenatal tests suggesting more than one chromosome
abnormality in the baby. In three
women, cancer was diagnosed during a medical work-up prompted
by the prenatal test results. Other
cancers were discovered after
women developed symptoms. Two
women had advanced cases.

Justice Dept.: Companies risk prosecution for outbreaks


By Mary Clare Jalonick
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Following a deadly listeria outbreak in ice cream, the Justice


Department is warning food companies that
they could face criminal and civil penalties if
they poison their customers.
We have made a priority holding individuals and companies responsible when they
fail to live up to their obligations that they
have to protect the safety of the food that all
of us eat, Associate Attorney General Stuart
Delery said in an interview with the
Associated Press.
After years of relative inactivity, the
administration has stepped up criminal
enforcement on safety cases. In the most
high-profile case, a federal court in Georgia
last year found an executive for the Peanut

obstruction of justice, wire fraud and other

Delery, the No. 3 official at the Justice
Department, wouldnt say whether the government plans to pursue charges against
Texas-based Blue Bell Creameries, which
recalled all its products and shut down production earlier this year after listeria in the
companys ice cream was linked to illnesses
and three deaths. A Food and Drug
Administration investigation found that Blue
Bell knew that it had listeria in one of its
plants for almost two years before the recall.
I will say we are following the reports and
working with our agency partners, obviously, as they conduct their reviews and investigations, Delery said of the Blue Bell investigation and other recent outbreaks, including deaths linked to listeria in caramel
apples. What I can say is were committed to
staying on top of outbreaks and evaluating
potential cases as the evidence warrants.

Other recent actions prompted


by the Justice Department during
the Obama administration:
A 2013 guilty plea from Colorado brothers who grew and sold listeria-tainted cantaloupe that killed more than 30 people in
2011.

A 2014 plea deal, resulting in prison


time and millions of dollars in fines,
between the government and an Iowa egg
company and its executives. An outbreak
of salmonella linked to the eggs sickened
almost 2,000 people in 2010.
A May 2015 settlement with ConAgra
Foods for $11.2 million after the company
shipped Peter Pan peanut butter tainted
with salmonella from a plant in Georgia,
sickening more than 600 people in 2006.
That sum includes the highest criminal
fine in a U.S. food safety case.
Bill Marler, a food safety lawyer who has
represented victims in many of those
cases, says Justices recent activity is
especially notable because in many of the
cases, company executives didnt know
they were shipping out tainted food, but
they were hit with criminal charges anyway.
Its been very much of a sea change,
Marler said. Once you start down this road
you have to decide whether you are going
to do it all the time or selectively.
Delery notes the department has gone
after some of these companies with laws
that arent directly related to food safety,
such as those prohibiting wire or mail
fraud.
In his effort to put food companies on
warning, Delery spoke to food manufacturers at a safety meeting in Dallas last
month. He said the majority of American
food is safe, but even a tiny minority
can cause harm.
The criminal prosecutions we bring
should stand as a stark reminder of the
potential consequences of disregarding
danger to ones customers in the name of
getting a shipment out on time of sacrificing what is right for what is expedient,
he told the food companies.
The food industry says it is on board
with regulation and enforcement.
Product safety is the foundation of consumer trust, and our industry devotes enormous resources to ensure that our products
are safe, said Pamela G. Bailey, president
and CEO of the Grocery Manufacturers
Association, the leading trade group for
the industry.

the site as a possible location to build
a fourth elementary school in Foster
City, which would offer more classrooms to accommodate projected
enrollment growth.
Talks between school officials and
the management company are only
preliminary at this point, and it is too
early to tell whether the discussions
are indicative of a pending agreement
to purchase the site, according to
Sunny Tong, managing director at
Westlake Realty.
This is just an open dialogue to
look at every opportunity, he said.
Should the school district continue
to consider purchasing and redeveloping the property, the board would rely
on revenue generated from a bond
measure, which officials are considering putting on the fall ballot, according to board President Audrey Ng.
Officials are considering moving
forward with a bond that will tax homeowners $19 per $100,000 of assessed
home value, which, should it be
approved by voters, would generate
between $145 million and $150 million for the school district, said Ng.
The district stands to accept more
money from a potential bond measure
than had been initially anticipated, due
to recent increases in local assessed
home values, said Ng.
If the bond is floated to voters, and

BRIDGE
Continued from page 1
The results of the nearly $235,000
tests will be revealed in about six weeks
after consultants from the firm
Atkinson-Noland & Associates finalize
their findings and recommendations.
The non-destructive methods used
last week included boring out samples
of concrete and wood, taking groundpenetrating radar scans as well as stress
testing that involved driving a large
truck carrying varied weights over the
bridge, said Deputy City Manager Alex
Khojikian.
Well have a better understanding of
what needs to be done in the future,
said Councilman John Muller. We
hope to have accurate information,
theres a lot of misinformation out
there and this will give us some accurate
data to go on.
Councilwoman Debbie Ruddock said
shes pleased the city will have firm
data on which to base a decision. The
Main Street Bridge debacle prompted
Ruddock, a former mayor, to return to
city politics last November.

approved, the school district would


likely aim to purchase the entire
Charter Square site with intent to build
a 600-student school which could
house students from both San Mateo
and Foster City, said Ng.
The district had initially considered
purchasing only a portion of the site,
but Ng said officials would rather opt
to pursue the whole property, because
that would allow increased capacity to
build a school which could house students from both communities.
The board felt it was very important
to have enough available space in
Foster City for students from San
Mateo, she said.
The board directed staff to draft a recommendation regarding how to best
accommodate expected growth in the
student population. Projections show
the current enrollment of about
11,800 students could increase by an
additional 600 students in the next
four years.
Ng said she expects the board to
make a final decision regarding
whether to move forward with a pursuit
of the bond, and receive recommendation from staff on ways to accommodate enrollment growth, in early
August.
Amidst the districts continued interest in the Charter Square site, Ng said
officials are also considering creative
ways to possibly finance the purchase
of the site, in concurrence with potential revenue from the bond measure.
The Foster City Council recently
met to discuss a collaborative effort

with the school district to potentially


purchase Charter Square, but Ng said
those considerations have recently
fallen through.
But the school district remains interested in partnering with other agencies
or companies that may share a common interest in purchasing and developing the site, said Ng.
We want to explore other avenues
available to the board to build a school
there, she said.
Tong though said he wonders
whether redeveloping Charter Square
into a school would be the best outcome for the property.
I still believe, as we have been saying all along, a mixed-use housing
development is an ideal long-term use
for that site, he said.
During the lead-up to the failed
Measure P bond campaign in 2013, the
school district had expressed interest
in purchasing Charter Square, but representatives from Westlake Realty
expressed a reluctance to sell the site.
Currently though, both Tong and Ng
said the relationship between the real
estate company and the school district
has improved.
Yet still, despite the growth in relations between the two agencies, there
are still a lot of talks that will take
place in coming months which will
shape the future of Charter Square, said
Tong.
I dont have a clear picture as to
how this will pan out, he said. All we
have now is honest, good-faith discussions.

Everybody wants a safe bridge. We


felt the city hadnt done the homework
necessary, the actual testing of the
bridge, that would justify the expense
and the inconvenience to downtown
businesses of replacing it, Ruddock
said. I think we would have saved a lot
of money and time if we had tested the
bridge right out of the gate.
Others on the council at the time
argued the Caltrans, which technically
owns the narrow bridge on the northern
side of downtown, had long issued
reports concluding it needed work.
When the council voted to replace the
bridge in 2013, Caltrans released a
report giving it a 24 out of 100, as it
was structurally deficient and functionally obsolete, Fraser said.
City officials also argued there were
grants that would pay for the bridge to
be replaced while repairs had no identified funding source.
In addition, the contended downtown
structure isnt the only bridge the city
is currently trying to repair. Currently,
there are about three footbridges along
portions of the California Coastal Trail
that are either closed or must soon be
addressed.
The Pilarcitos Creek Bridge, which is
owned by State Parks, will likely

remain defunct and closed until next


year as issues have arisen with securing
environmental permits. The Seymour
Bridge, just south of Poplar Avenue,
must be moved further inland as cliff
erosion is compromising the structure.
A third structure locally called the
Sweetwater Bridge that crosses
Frenchmans Creek just north of
Pilarcitos Creek, is also nearing the end
of its life span and officials must start
to consider fixing it as well, Muller
said.
With Measure F having stymied the
City Councils ability to replace the
bridge without first securing voter
approval during a subsequent election,
future decisions concerning how the
city can proceed must be based on the
results of the recent tests.
It would be great if it was just rehabilitation, Fraser said. Do you have a
structure that will last a few more generations or something that just lasts a
while and somewhere in the near future
it needs to be replaced? Whether its
this decade or the next decade, youre
going to have to answer to it.

Diplomats: Iran nuclear agreement likely Tuesday
VIENNA An Iran nuclear agreement appeared likely
within hours, diplomats said late Monday after a day in
which American and Iranian negotiators appeared to be
struggling to clear final obstacles and looking like theyd
miss their fourth deadline in less than two weeks.
Three diplomats familiar with the talks said the
announcement could come early Tuesday, possibly during
pre-dawn hours in Vienna. One said some of the top officials involved in the negotiation needed to leave Austrias
capital in the morning, thus hastening the declaration.
The diplomats werent authorized to speak publicly on
the status of the negotiations and demanded anonymity.
Their reports of a breakthrough capped a seesaw day of
developments that started with high hopes for an accord.
The mood soured as vexing questions including the future of
a U.N. arms embargo on Iran proved troublesome.
As a midnight target for a deal approached in Vienna,
diplomats said the nuts and bolts of the written nuclear
accord had been settled days ago.

Greece strikes preliminary deal with


its creditors, avoids chaotic euro exit
By John-Thor Dahlburg
and Pan Pylas
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BRUSSELS After grueling, often


angry negotiations that tested the limits of European unity, Greece struck a
preliminary rescue deal with its creditors Monday that should avert an
imminent financial catastrophe but
also guarantees years more hardship
and sacrifice for its people.
Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras flew
home to sell the bailout plan to skeptical lawmakers and political allies,
some of whom accused him of selling
Greece out. Panos Kammenos, leader
of the junior partner in Tsipras coalition government, denounced the deal
as a German-led coup.
This deal introduced many new
issues ... we cannot agree with it, he

said after meeting with Tsipras.


Other Greeks rallied Monday night
before Parliament in Athens, urging
lawmakers to reject the new demands.
To close the deal with his partners in
the euro currency, Tsipras had to consent to a raft of austerity measures,
including sales tax hikes and pension
and labor reforms measures he had
campaigned vociferously against over
the last five years of Greeces financial
crisis.
Since his election in January, the
youthful Tsipras has faced intense
pressure to backpedal on many of his
promises to Greeces exhausted electorate. Finally, faced Sunday by the
leaders of the 18 other nations that
share the euro and the knowledge that
Greek banks were just days from running out of money, the moment came
when he couldnt resist any more.
A series of supposed red lines van-

ished, including objections to tight


international oversight of Greeces
economy, continued involvement by
the International Monetary Fund in
Greeces bailout program and cuts to
pensions.
The result of marathon negotiations
emerged Monday: about 85 billion
euros ($95.1 billion) in loans and
financial support for Greece over three
years that will preserve its membership in the euro, shore up its banks and
allow a modicum of stability to return
to the battered Greek economy.
Creditors have also dangled the carrot of a possible future debt restructuring in the event of a smooth bailout.
We managed to avoid the most
extreme measures, Tsipras said.
But in many cases, ordinary Greeks
now face tougher measures than those
they voted down in a nationwide referendum a little over a week ago.

BUCHAREST, Romania Romanian prosecutors indicted Prime Minister Victor Ponta on Monday as part of a wideranging corruption investigation and
seized his assets, increasing pressure on
him to resign.
Prosecutors said Ponta has been indicted on charges including tax evasion,
money laundering, conflict of interest
and making false statements while he
was working as a lawyer in 2007 and
2008. At the time, Ponta was a lawmaker.
Victor Ponta He denies wrongdoing.
Prosecutors also said in a statement
Monday that they temporarily froze Pontas personal assets
which include shares in a house, an apartment and several
bank accounts. He sold two apartments in May for 150,000
euros ($170,000) and also sold a car.
Ponta, who took office in 2012, is the first sitting
Romania prime minister to be indicted and have his assets
seized.

Yemen officials: Saudi-led


coalition strike kills 25 people
SANAA, Yemen An airstrike by the Saudi-led coalition
targeting Yemens Shiite rebels and their allies struck a
poor residential area in the capital of Sanaa on Monday,
killing 25 civilians and wounding at least 50, according to
the rebels and medical officials.
The strike hit the slums of the Sawan neighborhood in
eastern Sanaa early in the morning, said the rebels, known
as Houthis.
Smoke billowed from the struck area in Sawan, which is
located just hundreds of meters (yards) from a military camp
used by the rebels. Hospital officials said there were women
and children among the casualties.

THE DAILY JOURNAL

Mexico drug lord


escape tunnel too
elaborate to miss
By Christopher Sherman
and Elliot Spagat
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ALMOLOYA, Mexico The digging


would have caused noise. The planners
would have needed blueprints and maps. The
escape was made from the one place beyond
the view of security cameras at Mexicos
toughest prison.
As authorities hunted Monday for any
sign of Mexicos most powerful drug lord,
security experts said its clear that Joaquin
El Chapo Guzmans escape through an
elaborately designed tunnel must have
involved help on a grand scale.
How did Chapo escape? In one word: corruption, wrote Alejandro Hope, a former
member of Mexicos domestic intelligence
service, in his blog El Daily Post.
He escaped through a mile-long tunnel,
wide enough to hold a motorcycle, and ending in one of the few blind spots in
Mexicos most-secure prison. How do you
do that without some high-level corruption?
U. S. authorities believe the tunnel

through which Guzman


made his audacious exit
Saturday evening must
have been in the works
for at least a year, nearly
as long as the head of the
notorious Sinaloa Cartel
had been at the Altiplano
prison 55 miles (90 kilometers) west of Mexico
Joaquin
City.

A tunnel of such
sophistication with lights, air venting,
and a customized motorcycle rigged up on a
rail line would have taken 18 months to
two years to complete, said Jim Dinkins,
former head of Immigration and Customs
Enforcements
Homeland
Security
Investigations.
When its for the boss, you probably put
that on high speed, he said.
If anyone was capable of pulling off such
a feat, it was Guzman, who is believed to
have at least a quarter-century of experience
in building large, sophisticated tunnels to
deliver contraband under the U.S.-Mexico
border and to escape from hideouts as

Altiplano Federal Penitentiary and used by drug lord Joaquin El Chapo Guzman to escape,
was located in Almoloya de Juarez, on the outskirts of Mexico City.
authorities closed in.
One of his first tunnels was found in 1990
between Douglas, Arizona, and Agua Prieta,
Mexico.
Officials estimated the 200-foot passage
would have cost $2 million to build at the
time. It featured electric lights, pumps to
keep it clear of water and elaborate
entrances.
Joe Garcia, who retired this year as inter-

im special agent in charge of U. S.


Homeland Security Investigations in San
Diego, has extensive experience in tunnel
investigations. He said the tunnel at
Altiplano was longer than any passage ever
found on the U.S.-Mexico border.
Guzman must have had cooperation from
government officials given the passages
length and sophistication, and the time
required to build it, Garcia said.

Iraq begins operation to oust Islamic State group from Anbar


By Sinan Salaheddin
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BAGHDAD The Iraqi government


began a long-awaited, large-scale military

operation on Monday to dislodge Islamic


State militants from the countrys sprawling western Anbar province, a military
spokesman announced.

Command, Brig. Gen. Yahya Rasool, said


in a televised statement that the operation
started at dawn and that government forces
were being backed by Shiite and Sunni progovernment fighters. Rasool did not say
whether the U.S.-led international coalition was taking part.
This is not the first time the Iraqi government has announced an operation to
retake Anbar where several key towns,
including the provincial capital, Ramadi,
remain under Islamic State control. In
May, authorities announced an operation
to retake Ramadi, but there has not been
any major progress on the ground since
then.
In a brief statement, Iraqi Prime Minister
Haider al-Abadi vowed to take revenge
from Daesh criminals on the battlefield ...
and their cowardly crimes against unarmed
civilians will only increase our determina-

tion to chase them and to expel them from


the land of Iraq.
The Islamic State group, also known by
the Arabic acronym Daesh, seized large
parts of Anbar in early 2014 and captured
Ramadi in May. Iraqi forces, which had
been making steady progress against the
extremists in recent months with the help
of the air campaign, scored a major victory
in recapturing Saddam Husseins hometown of Tikrit in April.
During the past few weeks, the troops
have been moving to cut the militants
supply routes and to surround and isolate
Ramadi and Fallujah.
Rasool didnt provide any further details
on the ongoing operations. By noon, the
countrys state TV reported government
forces recapturing villages and areas
around Fallujah, which is located half way
between Baghdad and Ramadi.
