Airbnb home sharing hijack?

County housing nonprofit concerned with San Francisco company commandeering longtime term
By Bill Silverfarb
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

The term home sharing is used by at

least 70 nonprofit agencies in the United
States that provide permanent housing
solutions for seniors and low-wage earners.
In San Mateo County, HIP Housing has
been using the term for at least 35 years in
its mission to provide legitimate affordable

housing options for the people who need

them most.
But now, San Francisco-based Airbnb is
using the term and HIP Housings Executive
Director Kate Comfort Harr is worried the
companys new marketing campaign will
only exacerbate the areas escalating housing crisis.
Rents have climbed in the county by 50
percent in the past four years.

The unintended consequences of Airbnbs

business practices are still being discovered, she said.
HIP has already lost one of its 350
providers to Airbnb and is about to lose
another, she said.
Just losing one does a disservice to the
community, Harr said.
While San Francisco has adopted rules to
regulate companies such as Airbnb, a

November ballot measure in the city is calling for even more restrictions against vacation rentals in private homes.
They include limiting the number of
overnight stays any resident may have to
75 nights a year. Airbnb is fighting the ballot measure which San Francisco Mayor Ed
Lee has also come out against. Companies

Outpatient center opens in San Mateo

HealthRight offers assistance for those with mental health, substance abuse issues
By Samantha Weigel
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Tears, cheers, gratitude and hope

marked the grand opening of San
Mateo Countys newest mental health
and substance abuse treatment center
that plans to accept all who need assistance getting their lives back on track.
HealthRight 360 celebrated its
newest outpatient center, 2015
Pioneer Court in San Mateo, that will
provide counseling, referrals, meals
and more to both adults and youth.
The nonprofit operates a range of
centers across nine counties includ-

ing five other sites within the county

and assisted 27,000 clients last
year alone, said HealthRight 360 CEO
Vitka Eisen.
Located near multiple forms of transit just a few blocks off El Camino
Real, Pioneer Court will fill a gap in
the countys current outpatient service
centers and help those transitioning
from more intensive care or looking to
get started, Eisen said.
Its important to have outpatient
for a number of reasons. The way care
is transitioning, and what good care
looks like, is that care for substance
abuse disorder and mental health is

were not just treating it at an acute
level in an intensive residential setting, but that we have an opportunity
for people to transition from that into
a longer-term relationship in an outpatient program, Eisen said. So really,
a thoughtful system of care.
The Pioneer Center, named after its
address, will be open for walk-ins to
attend orientation every weekday from
9 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. Although the center has offered mental health services
for the last month, it officially

began Wednesday into why a 75-yearold, 75-foot-tall pine tree fell on a

Southern California childrens museum, leaving a young boy and girl hospitalized with serious injuries, officials
said.
An independent arborist and another

two hours carefully examining the pine
to try to find what caused it to fall a day
earlier when there was a clear sky and
little wind.
Theyve inspected the soil, the
bark, the tree limbs, its been a pretty exhaustive inspection and probing of the tree, city spokesman

William Boyer said.

There was no immediate word on what
the investigation revealed.
Theyre still digesting all of the data
theyve collected, Boyer said.
Fire Department officials said earlier
that the tree had showed no signs of
stress, it looked healthy and it had been
routinely maintained.
The region is in a fourth year of
severe drought, but Pasadena was
soaked with record rainfall in July. Its
not yet clear if either played a role.
Eight children between ages 6 and 8
were injured as they tried to scramble to
safety when the tree fell Tuesday afternoon. Six had only minor injuries.
One young boy remained in critical
condition, while one young girls condition was upgraded from critical to
guarded at the pediatric trauma unit at
the Los Angeles County University of
Southern California Medical Center,
Pasadena Fire Department spokeswoman Lisa Derderian said.
The towering pine was located in
Pasadenas Brookside Park, just outside
the grounds of the Kidspace Childrens
Museum.
The other campers
returned
Wednesday to the museums weeklong

available to talk if they were needed.

Major Millbrae sewer rate hikes approved

By Austin Walsh

Comment on
or share this story at
www.smdailyjournal.com

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Sewer bills in Millbrae will rise precipitously to pay for infrastructure fixes required
under a lawsuit settlement, despite the wishes of residents who called on officials to
delay the decision and develop more creative financing solutions.
The City Council voted 4-1, with
Councilman Wayne Lee dissenting, to
approve establishing sewer rate hikes that
will escalate to nearly $50 more per month
in coming years, during a meeting Tuesday,
July 28.
In response to the requests of residents,
Councilman Reuben Holober and Lee had
tried to gather consensus among the council
to delay the decision, but were ultimately
unsuccessful.
Under the decision, the average residential sewer bill will jump from $71 to $86 per
month beginning Aug. 1, and will continue
rising annually until reaching a maximum
of $123 by July 1, 2019.
Also, as part of the hike, residents will
face an additional surcharge to aid generating revenue for nearly $30 million in infrastructure repairs required by a settlement
agreement reached in 2010 with the San
Francisco Baykeepers.
The monthly fee, which will begin at
$10.50 next year and then jump to $23.90
through 2020, will be equally imposed on
residents and commercial businesses
throughout the city.
Officials claim the rate hikes and new fees
are required to raise nearly $27 million
which will be spent to replace 11 miles of
underground pipe and nearly 1,400 sewer
laterals connecting to homes.
The required fixes were brought on as a
result of the Baykeepers lawsuit in 2009,
which claimed the citys infrastructure was
inadequate in preventing raw sewage from
flowing into the Bay.
Some residents who addressed the council

expressed their dissatisfaction with the proposed hikes, and pleaded with officials to
postpone the decision, claiming many others were not aware the higher rates were
being considered.
This is ridiculous, said resident Sheila
Sullivan. Im standing here and Im sickened.
Opposition of the new rates was not universal among residents though.
Resident Ming Lee said it is time for the
city to invest in fixing its aging infrastructure.
We dont want to have additional taxes,
but lets face reality, if we dont take care of
the system now, we are going to pay a lot
more in the future, he said. This is our
city, if we love this city, we need to upkeep
with all the problems we will face, whether
it is now, tomorrow or 10 years from now.
Delaying a decision would give more residents a greater opportunity to participate in
the discussion about the proposed new rate
structure, and allow city staff to develop different strategies in imposing the hikes, said
Lee.
Holober suggested the staff develop a rate
structure which is more dependent on use,
which could charge more to users who place
a higher demand on the sewer system, or
perhaps roll the hikes out gradually to make
the increases more palatable to residents.
But Assistant City Manager Chip Taylor
recommended officials approve the fees as
soon as possible, because the city is in the
process of negotiating with the Baykeepers
to extend the previously agreed upon deadline to address the repairs, and officials
postponing the decision could send the
wrong message.
It is important for the city to show it is

on board with raising the revenue, so

Baykeeper feels confidence in increasing
the time for compliance, he said.
In light of the time sensitivity to begin
generating the revenue, Mayor Robert
Gottschalk said he supported moving ahead
with implementing the rate hikes.
Its time to repair and replace as much of
the system as we can before it really starts
to crumble out from under us, he said.
Vice Mayor Anne Oliva echoed some of
those sentiments, and said none of the concerns expressed by residents during the
meeting dissuaded her from approving the
rate hikes.
I think it would be somewhat irresponsible to delay, she said.
Councilwoman Marge Colapietro favored
implementing the new rates as well, and
said the council could also create an outreach campaign to residents, further educating them on why the increases are necessary.
Holober voted in favor of the hikes, under
the condition the city staff re-examine the
rate increases next year and consider
whether it would be possible to charge residents less than what was agreed upon by the
council.
Gottschalk agreed, and said he favored
revisiting the new rates later as well.
Colapietro said she appreciated the frustration residents were feeling, but felt it was
the obligation of officials to adopt what
they believed was the most responsible fiscal approach.
I apologize we have to do this, she said.
Its part of our responsibility to look at the
big picture, not for the short term, but for
the long term.

Man gets four years in prison for

high-speed chase with kids in car
An East Palo Alto man was sentenced to
four years in prison Tuesday for leading
California Highway Patrol officers on a
high-speed chase through San Mateo
County in April while his two young children were in the car, prosecutors said.
John Bivins, 24, pleaded no contest to
evading police and child endangerment and
was sentenced by Judge Leland Davis to
four years in prison, according to the San
Mateo County District Attorneys Office.
He received a stiffer sentence because of a
prior strike on his record.
Bivins was spotted going 85 mph on
Interstate 280 near Bunker Hill Drive at
about 9:30 p.m. on April 29. A CHP officer
pulled him over but, when the officer got
out of his patrol car, Bivins sped off.

Eventually he got off the freeway at

speeding through city streets at 40 mph,

Bivins stopped at Bay Road and
Berkeley Avenue in Menlo Park and took
off running from the car. Police searched
the area and found him hiding behind
garbage cans in the area, prosecutors said.
Back in the car, officers found his two
children, ages 4 and 5, in the back seat of
the car with their mother. The children did
not have car seats, but Bivins defense
attorney Tom Kelley said at least one of
them was wearing a seatbelt.
He is remorseful and might not have
received such a stiff sentence, but because
he had a prior strike on his record for a burglary conviction, the judges hands were
tied, the attorney said.
Its a very unfortunate situation, youve

Kelley said. Hes aware of that.

Prosecutors charge teen with

murder in death of 8-year-old
By Janie Har and Martha Mendoza
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SANTA CRUZ Prosecutors charged a

15-year-old boy with murder, kidnapping
and rape Wednesday in the death of an 8year-old girl in an artists complex in a
California beach town.
Police say Adrian Jerry Gonzalez lured
Madyson Middleton into his familys
apartment from a courtyard where she had
been riding her scooter over the weekend.
Once inside, he tied her up, sexually
assaulted and killed her, according a charging document.
Gonzalez remains in custody at the Santa

He said Gonzalez will be charged as an

adult and added that in

his two decades in Santa

suing the estate of a San Mateo man who
died after officials say he drove head-on into
a bus last year.
SamTrans filed the civil lawsuit in San
Mateo County Superior Court Tuesday
against the estate of Joseph Paul Stivala,
the 84-year-old driver who crashed into a
bus on South El Camino Real near Central
Park in September.
Joseph Stivalas wife, 79-year-old Anna
Stivala, was a passenger in the van and died
at the scene.
SamTrans officials are now suing to be
reimbursed for workers compensation benefits paid to its employee Daniel Rodriguez,
the driver of the bus who was injured in the
crash, according to the complaint.
Since the accident, SamTrans has, and
continues, to pay benefits to Rodriquez who
required medical treatment and time off work
as a result of the crash, according to the lawsuit.
SamTrans
spokeswoman
Jayme
Ackemann said she could not comment on
pending litigation or the extent of
Rodriguezs injuries. SamTrans, which

investigated the crash, was also advised not

to release its findings due to the status of the
case, Ackemann said.
What is known is that Rodriguez was driving in the far right northbound lane of South
El Camino Real near 12th Avenue when the
Stivalas van veered into oncoming traffic
around 12:45 p.m. Its unknown exactly
why Joseph Stivala, who was heading
southbound, ended up crossing into oncoming traffic or whether the couple were wearing seatbelts.
Five passengers on the bus were taken to a
hospital with injuries not considered lifethreatening, according to SamTrans.
Joseph Stivala was taken to a hospital in
critical condition where he succumbed to his
injuries a short time later, according to
SamTrans.
Craig Stivala, the couples son and executor of his fathers estate, is also named in
the suit.
Walt Shjeflo, an attorney managing
Joseph Stivalas estate, said the entire incident has been hard on Craig Stivala.
Hes very broken up about it, Walt
Shjeflo said. Anything that reminds him of
the death of his parents, they were very
close, is a blow.

Hydrogen refueling stations get $2.2M

By Keith Burbank
BAY CITY NEWS SERVICE

The Bay Area Air Quality Management

District has approved $2.2 million to complete 12 hydrogen refueling stations in the
Bay Area, BAAQMD officials said
Wednesday.
The air district expects the stations to be
operable early next year. The Bay Area
already has three stations.
The 12 stations to be completed will be
located in Berkeley, Campbell, Foster City,
Hayward, Los Altos, Mill Valley, Mountain
View, Oakland, Redwood City, North First
and North Fourth streets in San Jose, San
Ramon, Saratoga, South San Francisco and
Woodside.
BAAQMD officials expect hydrogen technology to reduce Bay Area greenhouse gas
emissions. Air district spokesman Tom
Flannigan said vehicles are the largest
source of particulate matter or smog in the
Bay Area.
Air district officials have set a goal of
reducing Bay Area greenhouse gas emissions to 80 percent of 1990 levels by 2050,
according to a 2013 resolution.
This is one of the efforts were taking on

to accomplish that, Flannigan said.

He said the $2.2 million is supplementing
the cost of the stations, which are mostly
being paid for with $50 million from the
California Energy Commission and money
from three project sponsors.
Flannigan said only about a dozen hydrogen fuel cell vehicles are in use in the Bay
Area now.
Two vehicle models are currently available for lease in California, according to
www.fueleconomy.gov.
The website says the 2014 Honda FCX
Clarity midsize sedan has a range of 231
miles and the 2016 Hyundai Tucson Fuel
Cell has a range of 265 miles.
The Clarity has a combined city and highway fuel efficiency of 59 miles per kilogram
of hydrogen and the Tuscon has a combined
fuel efficiency 50 miles per kilogram,
according to www.fueleconomy.gov.
One kilogram of hydrogen is roughly
equivalent to one gallon of gasoline,
according to the site.
Toyota said its hydrogen fuel cell car, the
Mirai, will be available later this year,
according to the carmakers website.
Flannigan said Mercedes is also preparing
to lease a hydrogen fuel cell car.

percent of Latinos are most likely to say the
effects have already begun, followed by 63
percent of blacks, 60 percent of Asians and
58 percent of whites.
Democrats were more likely than independents and Republicans to call the threat
very serious.
The threat of global warming to the
states future is a shared belief among inland
and coastal residents and Californians
across racial and ethnic groups, said PPIC
President and CEO Mark Baldassare. But
there are persistent partisan divisions on
climate change.

Brown, a Democrat, recently returned

from a climate summit at the Vatican where
he said the world may have reached a tipping point on global warming and that
humanity must reverse course or face
extinction. Brown, a onetime Jesuit seminarian, has made climate change a central
theme of his tenure in his second stint as
California governor.
A solid majority of Californians, including 63 percent of likely voters, said they
favor AB32, a landmark state law that
requires California to reduce greenhouse gas
emissions to 1990 levels by 2020. Polls
conducted since the law passed in 2006 have

shown that most Californians favor it.

Nearly 70 percent of Californians said
they favor stricter limits under a new bill,
SB32, which would aim to bring greenhouse gas emissions to 80 percent of 1990
levels by 2050.
The Legislature is also considering
Browns plan to set what the administration calls the most aggressive carbon
reduction benchmark in North America. The
proposal, SB350, would increase statewide
renewable electricity use to 50 percent,
have drivers use half as much gasoline, and
make buildings twice as efficient as they
are now.

Converse was actually a fill-in to perform
Monday nights prayer and is not on the
regular rotation of clergy to lead the
prayers.
He suspects he wont be asked back by the
council to pray again, he said.
He considers the citys act to suspend the
invocations, however, as a bit of an overreaction but said he respects the decision.
The city has led its council meetings with
invocations for decades without incident,
Interim City Manager Aaron Aknin wrote in
a statement Wednesday.
Aknin advised the council to suspend the
invocations pending further review.
Redwood City invocations are coordinated by the Redwood City Clergy Network.
Advice on decorum is given to all invocators on how to present a respectful invoca-

tion at City Council meetings. The clergy

are considered volunteers with the police
department.
Aknin and officers in the Police
Department will be sitting down with the
Redwood City Clergy Network to review
guidelines for the selection of police volunteers, according to a press release.
The city of Redwood City is proud of our
diversity
and
strong
community.
Invocations are not the forum to promote or
discourage any particular religious or other
belief. Invocators are invited as guests of
the mayor and City Council and community
as a whole to share peaceful and respectful
insights. Suspending the invocation
process until further discussion with the
mayor and council will ensure that invocations support our communitys diversity
and values, Aknin wrote in a statement.

Gee said he had always considered the

invocations to be uplifting before Monday
night.
The pastors prayer has certainly given
us reason to pause and think about this,
Gee said.
During the prayer, Converse said: We
pray for the leaders of this country and its
leaders who have clearly turned from your
ways, oh God. We live in a society where
murder of human life in the womb has
become commonplace and our country is
being terrorized not by people from foreign
lands but by the very people who are
responsible to protect it, according to a

House votes 385-34 to provide

money for highways, transit
By Joan Lowy
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON The House voted overwhelmingly on Wednesday to shore up federal highway aid and veterans health care
before heading out of town for its August
recess, leaving unresolved an array of sticky
issues that are sure to complicate an autumn
agenda already groaning under the weight of
indecision.
In one of their last decisions before
adjourning for a month, the House backed a
bill that would extend spending authority for
transportation programs through Oct. 29,
and replenish the federal Highway Trust Fund
with $8 billion. Thats enough money to
keep highway and transit aid flowing to
states through mid-December.
The vote was 385-34.
The Senate plans to take up the House bill
before a midnight Friday deadline, when
authority for the Transportation Department
to process aid payments to states will expire.
Lawmakers said they were loath to take up
yet another short-term transportation funding extension this will be the 34th extension since 2009. But Republicans and
Democrats dont want to see transportation
aid cut off, and they are eager to pass an
amendment attached to the extension bill
that fills a $3.4 billion hole in the
Department of Veterans Affairs budget. The
money gap threatens to force the closure of

hospitals and clinics nationwide.

The three-month patch puts off House
action on a long-term transportation bill,
adding one more messy fight to a fall agenda
already crammed with difficult, must-pass legislation. Twelve annual spending bills face a
Sept. 30 deadline but are being held up by a
clash over the Confederate flag. Congress
must also decide whether to approve or disapprove President Barack Obamas Iran deal, and
whether to pass a contentious defense policy
bill that faces a veto threat from the White
House. Another fight is certain over raising
the nations borrowing authority.
Spending authority for the Federal
Aviation Administration expires Sept. 30.
Since long-term bills to set aviation policy
have yet to be introduced in either the House
or the Senate, lawmakers acknowledge they
will have to pass a short-term extension
there as well.
I think it will be an extremely active fall
with the potential for either terrific accomplishment or a train wreck, said Rep. Tom
Cole of Oklahoma, a member of House
Republican leadership.
A $350 billion, long-term Senate transportation bill cleared a procedural hurdle
Wednesday by a vote of 65 to 35. Senate passage is likely Thursday. The bill would make
changes to highway, transit, railroad and
auto safety programs, but only provides
enough funds for the first three years of the
six years covered by the bill.

Average vehicle age hits record 11.5 years

By Dee-Ann Durbin
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

DETROIT In the age of Apples

CarPlay, a lot of cars on the road still
have tape decks.
The average vehicle in the U.S. is
now a record 11.5 years old, according
to consulting firm IHS Automotive, a
sign of the increased reliability of
todays vehicles and the lingering
impact of the sharp drop in new car
sales during the recession.
Drivers behind the wheel of older
cars arent enjoying some of the latest
advanced safety features or infotainment systems that effectively turn cars
into cellphones on wheels. Then
again, they dont have to worry about
hackers finding their way in to the
cars computer network through the
cassette or CD player.
IHS said U.S. registrations grew to a
record 257.9 million cars and trucks
this year, up 2 percent from a year earlier.
The average age of vehicles has

been climbing steadily since IHS

began tracking the number in 2002.
As quality and reliability have
improved, people have been holding
on to their cars and trucks for longer.
The average length of ownership for a
new vehicle is now almost 6.5 years,
IHS said. For a used vehicle, its five
years.
Cars and trucks now have the same
average age, says Mark Seng, IHS
Automotives global aftermarket practice leader. For many years, cars had
shorter lifespans than trucks, but their
quality has now caught up.
Experts say theres no rule for how
long to hold on to an old car or truck.
A car with good reliability can go for
200,000 miles or more, which can easily last a decade for some motorists,
says Doug Love, a spokesman for
Consumer Reports.
The magazine doesnt recommend
driving older cars without two key
safety features introduced more than a
decade ago: electronic stability control and side curtain air bags.

The aging car population could mean

that Americans will be slow to adapt
safety and semi-autonomous features
that have car company executives and
experts heralding a new age of the
automobile. Adaptive cruise control
arrived in the U.S. market in 2006, for
example, but nine years later only 6
percent of all cars have it, according to
a recent report from Boston
Consulting Group. It will also take
longer for much-hyped advances like
CarPlay which gives drivers access
to their apps through the dashboard
to become commonplace.
But Seng says the auto industry
should take heart. Even though the
average vehicle age shows no sign of
reversing, it is starting to plateau,
since buyers have returned to the car
market in big numbers. Sales of new
cars rose from 12.7 million in 2011 to
16.5 million last year and are expected
to reach or exceed 17 million this year.
IHS thinks the average vehicle age
will hit 11.6 years in 2016 but wont
climb to 11.7 years until 2018.

Dentist rarely discussed

hunting with his patients
By Brian Bakst and Farai Mutska
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ST. PAUL, Minn. A Minnesota

dentist who has become the target of
worldwide outrage for hunting and
killing a protected lion in Zimbabwe
advised patients Wednesday to seek
care elsewhere and said he rarely discussed his big-game hunting because it
can be a divisive and emotionally
charged topic.
Walter James Palmer remained
secluded in the face of protests at his
suburban Minneapolis clinic and
intense condemnation online. He has
not appeared in public since being
identified Tuesday as a party to the
lions death.
Palmer, whose practice offers general
and cosmetic dentistry, is an active
big-game hunter, with many kills to
his name, some of them registered with
hunting clubs.
The North Dakota native enjoys all
outdoor activities, according to the
biography page on his now-dark clinic

website. Anything
allowing him to stay
active and observe
and
photograph
wildlife is where you
will find Dr. Palmer
when he not in the
office.
In Zimbabwe, a
hunting guide and a
Walter
farm owner appeared
Palmer
in court on allegations they helped Palmer kill the lion
named Cecil. And the head of
Zimbabwes safari association said the
big cat with the black mane was lured
into the kill zone and denied a chance
of a fair chase.
The Zimbabwean men were accused of
aiding Palmer, who reportedly paid
$50,000 to track and kill a lion.
Zimbabwe police have said they are
looking for Palmer, whose exact
whereabouts were unknown.
Palmer, 55, referenced the situation
in a note to his patients. I understand
and respect that not everyone shares

the same views on hunting, he wrote

in the letter, which was obtained by the
local Fox television affiliate, KMSP.
The married father of two was the
subject of a 2009 New York Times article about big-game hunting in which
he said he learned to shoot at age 5. The
article said Palmer had a reputation for
being capable of skewering a playing
card from 100 yards with a compound
bow and having a purists reputation
for his disinclination to carry firearms
as backup.
During the nighttime hunt, the
Zimbabwean men tied a dead animal to
their car to draw the lion out of a
national park, said Johnny Rodrigues,
chairman
of
the
Zimbabwe
Conservation Task Force.
The American is believed to have
shot the lion with a crossbow. The
wounded cat was then tracked for 40
hours before Palmer fatally shot him
with a gun, Rodrigues said.
A professional hunter named Theo
Bronkhorst was accused of failing to
prevent an unlawful hunt.

U.S. official: Debris in photo belongs to Boeing 777

WASHINGTON Air safety investigators have a high
degree of confidence that a photo of aircraft debris found in

Boeing 777, the same model as the Malaysia Airlines plane
that disappeared last year, according to a U.S. official said
Wednesday.
Air safety investigators one of them a Boeing investigator have identified the component as a flaperon from
the trailing edge of a 777 wing, the U.S. official said.
A French official close to an investigation of the debris
confirmed Wednesday that French law enforcement is on site
to examine a piece of airplane wing found on the French
island of Reunion, in the western Indian Ocean. A French television network was airing video from its Reunion affiliate
of the debris.
The U.S. and French officials spoke on condition that
they not be named because they arent authorized to speak
publicly.

Russia vetoes Security

Council proposal on MH17 tribunal
UNITED NATIONS Russia on Wednesday vetoed a U.N.
Security Council resolution that would set up an international criminal court to prosecute those responsible for
shooting down a Malaysia Airlines plane over Ukraine a
year ago.
The foreign ministers of the Netherlands, Australia and
Ukraine attended a meeting over the downing that killed all
298 people on board Flight MH17. The countries are among
the five nations investigating the incident, along with
Malaysia and Belgium.
Ukraine and the West suspect the plane, traveling from
Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur, was hit by a surface-to-air missile fired by Russian soldiers or Russia-backed separatist
rebels on July 17, 2014. Russia denies that, and state media
have alleged the plane was shot down by a Ukrainian missile
or warplane.

index rose 15.32 points, or 0.7 percent, to 2,108.57 and the Nasdaq composite rose 22.53 points, or 0.4 percent, to 5,111.73.
The Fed said the U.S. economy continues to improve in numerous
aspects, but signaled that it wants to
see further economic gains and higher
inflation before raising rates. Many
investors expect the Fed will still lift
rates in September or December, but its
statement gave no timing for the raise.
Low interest rates have been good
for stock investors, helping fuel a bull
market that has lasted more than six
years.
Yeah, the economy is improving,
but they are not really saying that the
economy is taking off here, said Tom
di Galoma, head of rates trading at
ED&F Man Capital. If the Fed doesnt
raise rates in September, I think were
looking at some time mid next year.

September, I think were looking at some time mid next year.
Tom di Galoma, head of rates trading at ED&F Man Capital

There are several reasons why the

Fed could stand pat on interest rates,
from the recent distress in Chinas
stock market to the falling prices of
commodities this year, which will
help keep a lid on inflation.
Bond investors seemed to agree with
the idea that the Fed was in no rush to
raise rates. Bonds rose, pushing the
benchmark 10-year Treasury note traded at a yield of 2.27 compared with the
nearly 2.30 percent before the Fed
statement.
Investors had a second day of relative calm in the Chinese stock market.
Chinas Shanghai Composite Index
rebounded 3. 4 percent to close at
3,969.40 after flitting between gains
and losses for most of the day. Alarm
over the sharp fall in Chinese shares
has abated somewhat as the Shanghai
index
has
steadied following
Mondays 8.5 percent dive.
A strong batch of corporate earnings
also helped lift the market. Gilead
Sciences rose $2.64, or 2.3 percent, to
$115. 71. The companys profits

jumped 23 percent from a year ago,

helped by its new blockbuster hepatitis C medicine Harvoni. The company
also raised its 2015 forecasts.
Northrop Grumman led defense companies higher after it posted a
stronger-than-expected profit in the
second quarter and raised its outlook
for the year. Northrops stock jumped
$10.10, or 6.2 percent, to $173.44,
its biggest one-day gain in at least five
years.
In other markets, the price of U.S.
crude rose Wednesday after the government reported a surprise drop in oil
inventories and oil production.
Benchmark U.S. crude rose 81 cents to
close at $48.79 a barrel in New York.
Brent crude, a benchmark for international oils used by many U.S. refineries, rose 8 cents to close at $53.38 in
London.
In other futures trading on the
NYMEX, wholesale gasoline rose 1.9
cents to close at $1.822 a gallon.
Heating oil fell 0.6 cent to close at
$1.598 a gallon.

Fed holds steady on rates, seeks further economic gains

By Martin Crutsinger
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON The Federal Reserve

appears on track to raise interest rates later
this year but signaled Wednesday that it
wants to see further economic gains and
higher inflation before doing so.
A statement from the Fed after its latest
policy meeting provided no timetable.
Many analysts foresee the first hike in

September, though Fed Chair Janet Yellen

has stressed that any increase will be driven
by the latest economic data.
The statement noted that the job market,
housing and consumer spending have all
improved. The Fed still expects inflation to
rise gradually toward its 2 percent target.
Wednesdays statement made only slight
changes in the wording of the previous
statement in June. The few modifications
suggested a healthier economy.

Describing the job market, the Fed for the

first time pointed to solid job gains and
declining unemployment. The unemployment rate has reached a seven-year low of
5.3 percent.
In addition, the Fed said it needs to see
only some further improvement in hiring, rather than the further improvement
it said last time a hint that the job market
is nearing full health.
Michael Hanson, an economist at Bank

of America Merrill Lynch, said the Feds

more upbeat language about the job market
suggests that policymakers are nearing the
point where they will raise rates. He expects
that to occur in September.
They havent made up their minds, but ...
were getting that much closer to satisfying
their criteria for a rate hike, Hanson said.
Yellen has stressed that when the Fed
begins to raise rates, it will do so only gradually.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK Facebook surpassed

Even so, its stock price slid after the

Tesla offers first incentive

in owner referral program
DETROIT Electric car maker Telsa
Motors Inc. is offering its first incentive, $1,000 to new-car buyers who are
referred by current Tesla owners.
Owners who make a referral also will
get $1,000 in their Tesla account that
can be spent on a car purchase, service
or accessories.
CEO Elon Musk said the $2,000 is
about equal to what it costs to sell a car
through a company store and hes passing it on to customers. The Tesla Model
S is the only current model and it starts
at $70,000.
New car orders must be placed by
Sept. 30 to get the deal. Musk also says
the plan is a guerrilla tactic to counter
states that have auto dealer franchise
laws that dont allow his company
owned stores.
The first Tesla owner to persuade 10
friends to buy a car gets a free Model X

SUV, which is due out later this year.

Five referrals that result in purchases

Twitter stock tumbles

as user growth stalls
NEW YORK Tepid user growth and
ongoing uncertainty about its leadership dragged Twitters stock to its lowest level in over a year Wednesday, even
though the short-messaging service
reported sharply quarterly higher revenue.
Twitter is not satisfied with its user
growth, co-founder Jack Dorsey, who
replaced Dick Costolo as CEO earlier
this month, said Tuesday after the earnings report. But thats unlikely to
change any time soon.
Twitter doesnt expect to see sustained, meaningful growth of its number of users until it reaches the mass
market, said Chief Financial Officer
Anthony Noto. This, he said, will take
considerable time.
While the company is planning to
boost its marketing efforts to lure in
new users, Noto also acknowledged that
the site remains too difficult to use for
many people.

Skylines Franco heading to Azusa Pacific

By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

As a top-of-the-order hitter, Michael

Franco is a throwback akin to the glory
days of Brett Butler.
Franco who announced earlier this
week he is transferring from Skyline
College to the Division-II program at Azusa
Pacifica University has plenty in common with the former Giants great. Like
Butler, Franco is a dynamic center fielder.
He is also a reliable on-base-percentage

presence at the top of the

batting order.
But perhaps Francos
characteristic that most
evokes memories of
Butler is his bunting
ability, a tactic Franco
has often used to reach
base since his days as an
Michael Franco All-Peninsula Athletic
League outfielder at
Burlingame. That is why it seemed odd to
see Franco hitting in the No. 9 spot of the

batting order on opening day of his sophomore season at Skyline.

In the beginning of the year, starting off
ninth the dynamic of the lineup was
setup where you have speed throughout the
order, Franco said. Batting ninth at the
beginning of the year, I saw a lot of fastballs. Traditionally they throw a lot of fastballs to you at the bottom of the order. So I
got a lot of them.
Franco made the most of batting at the
bottom of the order. Through Skylines first
16 games, he tabbed 10 multi-hit perform-

Blitz snag tourney title

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

ances, during which time he batted .431 (25

for 58). By the midway point of the season,
he found himself hitting in the No. 2 spot in
the order. He went on to bat .338 as the
Trojans took fourth place in the Coast
Pacific Conference and qualified for their
first postseason since 2010.
I thought [the season] went great,
Franco said. I think overall, as a team, we
made it back to the playoffs, which was fantastic.

Beane up to
his old tricks
M

The NorCal Blitz knocked it out of the park

at the 18-and-under Triple Crown World
Series in Reno, Nevada.
The Blitz a fastpitch softball travel team
consisting predominantly of players from
San Mateo County marched through the
tourney with 10 straight wins at Golden
Eagle Regional Park, closing out the championship last Saturday with a 3-1 win over
the Nevada Lightning.
After opening the tournament among the
73-team field last Tuesday, the Blitz
outscored its opponents 58-22. But it was
the defense anchored by second baseman
Kelsey Ching (Carlmont) and third baseman
Miki Solarzano (Capuchino) that served as
the cornerstone of the teams solid play.
It was the consistency of our players
defense, Blitz manager Brian Ching said. I
would say out of 10 games, we had, at the
most, four errors throughout the 10 games.
The pitching was consistent and it was
just stellar play.
Kaitlyn Grech starred in the circle in the
championship game, firing her fourth complete game in four outings. Having recently
completed her sophomore season at
Woodside, Grech is one of just three underclassman players on the Blitz 18U roster,
along with Leila Rofii (Capuchino) and Jolie
Kemp (Castilleja).
She held the team at bay, Brian Ching
said. Eighty percent first strikes. And she
hit the ball all tournament. She was actually
a superstar.
It was a tall order for the Lightning, who
advanced through the losers bracket, to face
the Blitz. While the Blitz only played two
games, including the title game, on championship Saturday, the finale was the
Lightnings sixth game of the day.
To be fair to them, it was a pretty tough
situation to overcome, Brian Ching said.
The Blitz overcame their share of tough
assignments early in the tournament though.
Through six games of pool play, NorCal
cruised to wins over the Colorado Loveland
Rage, the KaosFP, the California Yard Sharks

up to his reputation as a wheeler-dealer as

Once again, Beane

Now Beane is

with the thought of
having these newly
acquired youngsters Major League-ready in a
couple years, which would coincide with a
new stadium for the As.
Ill believe that when I see it.
I feel sorry for As fans, I really do. Its
nearly impossible to develop any kind of
affinity for a team when there is a revolving
door to the clubhouse. And what makes any
As fan believe anything will change when
and if a new stadium is built? The As ownership continues to cry poor despite getting
millions in revenue sharing now, which
they simply pocket.
Pitcher Sonny Gray currently is the face
of the franchise only until its contract
time for him at which point he, too, will be
dealt.
While the As may not draw a lot of fans,
the ones who do show up game in and game
out are some of the best in baseball. Its
time Oakland management starts showing
some respect to these fans by seriously trying to build a contender. As someone said
on Twitter the other day: Can the As be
considered rebuilding if they are always
rebuilding?

Goldstein takes over Bearcats baseball program

By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

San Mateo High School announced the

hiring of Neal Goldstein as its new baseball
manager.
Goldstein, who spent this past season as
Hillsdales junior varsity manager, replaces
Nick Sanzeri, who left the post after two
years and is now Hillsdales varsity pitching coach.
Ive always been about trying to teach
kids the right way to play the game,

Goldstein said. Im probably older than

most coaches in the area, Im 52. (But)
the game hasnt passed me by.
Despite being a bit older, Goldstein doesnt believe he will have a hard time connecting with the San Mateo players.
It can be tough relating to kids that age,
but I have a son who graduated high school
two years ago, Goldstein said. I know
how to deal with kids that age.
This is Goldsteins first varsity head
coaching job. A Foster City native, he
moved to Pleasanton after getting married

and spent five years as the JV head coach at

Amador Valley-Pleasanton, from 2007 to
2011, before stepping down to watch his
son play high school ball at the Dons
rival, Foothill High School.
I think I would have pursued [a varsity
head coach job] earlier if I didnt have my
son playing in high school, Goldstein
said.
After his son graduated, Goldstein got
back into the coaching ranks last season
with Hillsdale, his alma mater.
One of the things that Goldstein would

like to do is establish some continuity.

Goldstein is the schools fourth baseball
coach in as many seasons and, during that
time, the Bearcats have compiled a
Peninsula Athletic League record of 16-22
and an overall mark of 26-27. This past season, San Mateo went just 1-11 in PAL Ocean
Division play and 7-17 overall.
The biggest challenge is to start a culture
of not only winning, but a culture of doing
things properly, Goldstein said. Treating

Pence leads Giants with bat, arm

By Michael Wagaman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO A day after making a

wild throw from the outfield, Hunter Pence
certainly wasnt surprised to see the
Milwaukee Brewers try to
test his arm again.
This time the San
Francisco Giants outfielder made the Brewers pay
with one of the two
sparkling defensive plays
he made.
Pence also came up big
at the plate, proving why
Hunter Pence keeping him healthy and
in the lineup is so critical
to San Franciscos push for the postseason.
Pence doubled in Matt Duffy to break a
scoreless tie in the seventh inning and the
Giants held on for a 5-0 victory Wednesday.
Hunters a shot in the arm any time hes
on the field, offensively and defensively,
Giants starter Jake Peavy said. We owe a lot
to Hunter Pence, thats for sure.

Pences big day helped the Giants bounce

back from their only loss on this six-game
homestand and they beat the Brewers for the
fifth time in six games this season.
Ehire Adrianza added a two-run single and
Brandon Crawford had a sacrifice fly for the
defending World Series champs, who scored
all of their runs in the fourth inning.
San Francisco has won 10 of 12 games
since the All-Star break.
Hunter Strickland (1-1) retired three batters
for the win, his first since Sept. 27, 2014.
Gerardo Parra extended his hitting streak to
13 games, matching his career high, but the
Brewers were shut out for the 12th time this
season.
San Franciscos defense played a big part
in that.
Pence chased down Hernan Perezs deep fly
ball to the gap in right-center for the first out
in the third, then doubled up Jonathan Lucroy
trying to tag up from second base on Ryan
Brauns fly out in the fourth.
If you looked at my throw last night, I
would have challenged myself, Pence said.
With the wind, I really didnt even get

49ers brief
49ers remove RB Hyde from
active/non-football injury list
SANTA CLARA Second-year 49ers running back
Carlos Hyde has been elevated to the active roster less
than 24 hours after the team announced he was on the
active/non-football injury list.
Hyde will be counted upon to carry the load following
franchise rushing leader Frank Gores departure. He had
been placed on the active/non-football injury list four
days ahead of the start of training camp.
The team announced Wednesday that Hyde is now
active. The only known injury for him during the offseason program was a muscle pull not his hamstring
that coach Jim Tomsula didnt discuss in further detail.
Veterans report Friday to Santa Clara headquarters with
the first practice Saturday night at Levis Stadium.

behind the ball too great. I just threw up kind

of a prayer up there and Duffy made an excellent tag.
Left fielder Nori Aoki followed Pences
gem with a tumbling catch near the foul line
to end the inning.
Neither team did much until the Giants sent
10 men to the plate in the fourth.
Pence hit his tiebreaking double off
Milwaukee starter Mike Fiers (5-9), who
struck out five and gave up two runs in sixplus innings.
San Francisco scored three runs off reliever
Will Smith to break it open.
The one inning got away from us, Fiers
said. Peavy pitched well. With our lineup,
you expect to get runs, but he battled.
Peavy gave up four hits and had three
strikeouts over six innings but left without
the decision. Peavy reached on a single in
the third San Franciscos first hit of the
game.
He had really good stuff, Giants manager
Bruce Bochy said. He kept it down, hit his
spots. Hes been throwing the ball very well
since hes come back.

Dodgers overcome As
in late-inning slugfest
By Greg Beacham
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LOS ANGELES Pinch-hitter

Kike Hernandez delivered the goahead, two-run double during the
Dodgers five-run seventh inning,
and Los Angeles rallied from a threerun deficit for a wild 10-7 victory
over the Oakland Athletics on
Wednesday night.
Yasiel Puig hit a two-run homer on
his bobblehead night for the Dodgers
(57-45), who snapped their threegame losing streak and avoided
falling out of first place for the first
time in two months.
Puig added an RBI single in the
seventh, capping the Dodgers
comeback after the last-place As
scored four runs in the top half of the
seventh to take a 6-3 lead.
Brett Lawrie had a ninth-inning
homer among his career-high four hits
and four RBIs for Oakland, which has
lost five of six.
Lawrie and Eric Sogard drove in two
runs apiece for the As in the seventh,

but the Dodgers replied with a gritty

two-out rally.
Adrian Gonzalez and Yasmani
Grandal delivered run-scoring hits off
Drew Pomeranz (4-4) before
Hernandez drilled a double to the leftcenter gap in his first plate appearance
since last Friday.
Howie Kendrick added a two-run single in the eighth for Los Angeles,
which has been in first place since
May 29 and for all but one day since
April 16. The Dodgers, who lead San
Francisco by a half-game, are the only
team in the majors without a fourgame skid this season.
Pedro Baez (3-2) got two outs in the
seventh.
Pomeranz gave up three hits and
three runs without recording an out in
the seventh.
Mike Bolsinger yielded eight hits
and three walks over five innings as a
late replacement for Clayton Kershaw,
who was scratched earlier in the day
with hip soreness.
Jesse Chavez gave up five hits and
three runs in five innings for Oakland.

Brady files lawsuit to stop suspension

By Jimmy Golen
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. Tom Brady

took the fight over his Deflategate suspension to social media and federal court on
Wednesday, and New England Patriots owner
Robert Kraft backed the three-time Super
Bowl MVP, saying I was wrong to put my
faith in the league.
One day after NFL Commissioner Roger
Goodell rejected Bradys appeal, the star
quarterback posted a 507-word statement on
Facebook with his firmest denial yet, writing: I did nothing wrong. Kraft followed
with an unscheduled address to the media
gathered at Gillette Stadium for the opening
of training camp and the teams defense of
its fourth Super Bowl championship.
It is completely incomprehensible to me
that the league continues to take steps to
disparage one of its all-time great players,
and a man for whom I have the utmost
respect, the Patriots owner said. I have
come to the conclusion that this was never
about doing what was fair and just.
Just before the courts closed in
Minnesota, the NFL Players Association
asked the court to overturn Bradys fourgame suspension or at least put it on hold
until the case can be heard. The union asked
the court to throw out the suspension before
Sept. 4; that would keep Brady from missing any practices before the Patriots Sept.
10 season-opener against the Pittsburgh
Steelers.

Sports briefs
Steve Kerr announces Warriors
coaching staff for next season
OAKLAND Coach Steve Kerr of the reigning NBA champion Golden State Warriors is
bringing back his entire coaching staff except
for departedAlvin Gentry, new coach of the New
Orleans Pelicans.
The Warriors announced Wednesday that Luke
Walton would fill Gentrys spot on the bench as

We need to free him up

for that first week,
union attorney Jeffrey
Kessler
told
the
Associated Press. We
dont believe this discipline can ever be sustained.
The lawsuit argues that
the NFL made up its rules
Tom Brady
as it went along and misapplied the ones that were already on the
books. In an interview with the AP, Kessler
called it offensive that the league accused
Brady of destroying his cellphone to
obstruct the investigation, a claim NFL
Commissioner Roger Goodell made in
upholding the suspension on Tuesday.
We believe they highlighted this issue
solely to inflame the public, to suggest
there is some secret information being
withheld, and thats wrong, Kessler told
the AP. Its an unfair character assassination of a player who has done nothing but
be a model citizen for this league.
Brady defended the cellphone swap on
Facebook.
To suggest that I destroyed a phone to
avoid giving the NFL information it
requested is completely wrong, he said.
There is no smoking gun and this controversy is manufactured to distract from the
fact they have zero evidence of wrongdoing.
Brady was suspended four games and the
Patriots were docked $1 million and two

draft picks in May for what the league found

was a scheme to provide improperly inflated footballs for the AFC championship
game against the Indianapolis Colts.
Investigator Ted Wells zeroed in on two
equipment managers one who called himself The Deflator and said Brady was at
least generally aware of the illegal deflation scheme.
Kraft said the Patriots did nothing wrong,
but the team fired the two equipment managers. He said he didnt fight the teams
penalty because he thought the league would
go easy on the star quarterback.
Now, he said, he regrets his decision.
I truly believe that what I did in May ...
would make it much easier for the league to
exonerate Tom Brady. Unfortunately, I was
wrong, Kraft said, apologizing to the
teams fans and to Brady. Six months
removed from the AFC championship game,
the league still has no hard evidence of anybody doing anything to tamper with the PSI
levels of footballs.
Kraft said the team turned over every cellphone not belonging to a player including the one belonging to coach Bill
Belichick. The powerful owner, who had
been one of Goodells most loyal allies,
said the leagues claim that Brady trashed
his phone to obstruct the investigation was
just the latest in a series of statements and
leaks that intentionally implied nefarious
behavior where there was none.
Tom Brady is a person of great integrity
and is a great ambassador of the game, both

on and off the field, Kraft said.

Brady, who had earlier denied cheating
accusations with the tepid I dont think
so, more forcefully defended himself in the
Facebook post, claiming he cooperated
with the investigation except where doing
so would have set a bad precedent for his
union brethren.
Brady said he replaced his broken phone
only after his lawyers told league investigators they couldnt have it. Most importantly, I have never written, texted, emailed to
anybody at any time, anything related to
football air pressure before this issue was
raised at the AFC Championship game in
January, he wrote.
The post was liked by 51,000 people
including his wife, supermodel Gisele
Bundchen in the first 30 minutes after it
was posted on Facebook. By the time the
lawsuit was filed at 6 p.m. Boston time, the
number was 250,000.
Patriots special teams captain Matthew
Slater Bradys teammates support him.
The guys in this locker room, we feel we
are part of a family, he said. Good or bad
things happen in life, you stick with your
family.
Belichick had been scheduled to speak to
the media first on Wednesday morning, but
Kraft took the podium instead. The coach,
as is his practice, declined to comment on
the scandal.
Nothing really to talk about there, he
said. Were going to take it day to day, just
like we always do.

Phillies agree to trade Cole Hamels to Texas

Journeyman Mike Hessman

ties MiLB career home run mark

By Rob Maaddi

Mike Hessman became the real-life Crash

Davis Monday when he hit his 432nd career
minor league home run, tying a the career
U.S. minor league record.
The journeyman minor leaguer hit his historic shot for the Toledo
Mudhens, the Detroit
Tigers Triple-A affiliate.
The home run came in the
third inning against
Rochester Red Wings
pitcher Michael Bowden.
Toledo went on to win the
game 9-3.
Hessman is currently
Mike Hessman in his 20th season of
professional baseball. He was originally
drafted in 1996 as a 15th round pick of the
Atlanta Braves out of Mater Dei High
School in Santa Ana. He has hit 30-plus
home runs three times in his minor league
career, including in 2007 when he was
named the International League Most
Valuable Player.
He has played in five different organizations the Braves, Tigers, Mets, Astros
and Reds with homers in each. He has
played parts of five seasons in the Major
Leagues, batting .188 with 14 home runs
and 33 RBIs in 223 career at-bats. This season with the Mudhens, the 37-year-old is
batting .218 with 14 homers and 42 RBIs.
The record of 432 homers, originally set
by Buzz Arlett in 1936, has stood for nearly
80 years. Arlett hit the final home run of his
minor league career with the Minneapolis
Millers, a former Cleveland Indians affiliate. He hit a majority of his home runs playing for the Oakland Oaks of the Pacific
Coast League.
The North American minor league record
for home runs is held by Hector Espino,
who hit 484 in the between the Mexican
Center League and the Mexican League
from 1960-84.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

PHILADELPHIA After years of trade

speculation, Cole Hamels time in
Philadelphia is ending.
Two people familiar with the deal say the
Phillies have agreed to trade the ace left-hander to the Texas Rangers for a package of
prospects.
Both people spoke to The Associated Press
late Wednesday night on condition of
anonymity because the trade had not been
finalized. Hamels has a limited no-trade
clause but does not have to approve a deal to
the Rangers.
Hamels would become the first pitcher in
major league history traded during a season
immediately after throwing a no-hitter he
no-hit the Chicago Cubs on Saturday at
Wrigley Field.
The 2008 World Series MVP was an integral

Cole Hamels looks to be headed to Texas after spending his entire career with the Phillies.
38-64, traded All-Star closer Jonathan
Papelbon to Washington on Tuesday. Both
players made it clear they wanted to play for
contenders.
Texas is seven games behind AL West-leading Houston and four games behind
Minnesota for the ALs second wild-card spot.

Hamels was 114-90 with a 3.30 ERA in 10

seasons in Philadelphia. He went 7-4 with a
3.09 ERA in 13 postseason starts and also
earned MVP honors in the 08 NLCS.
Hamels has three years remaining in a $144
million, six-year contract, a deal that
includes a club option for 2019. Hes owed

chance to play for the tournament title.

In last Fridays preliminary games, the
Blitz advanced through the winners bracket
with a 5-2 win over the San Antonio Hitt
Gold and an 8-6 win over the OBS Monarchs.
Then in last Saturdays semifinal, the Blitz
edged the California Grapettes 7-6.
We played tight games all the way
through, Brian Ching said.
The Blitz are set to compete in one more
tournament this summer, starting play
Thursday in the Western Nationals at the
Alden E. Oliver Sports Park in Union City.
However, the Triple Crown title was the
highlight of the season, Brian Ching said.
I would say (the Western Nationals is)
not that big of a deal for us, he said.
Theres only 21 teams. Its going to be
good competition though.

This years Blitz 18U team is the first squad

to graduate through the travel-clubs system
that was founded in 2011. At present, eight
players are slated to play at the collegiate
level next season.
Solorzano is committed to Long Beach
State; Michelle LaRose (St. Ignatius) is committed to Regis University; Sidney Davis
(Everest) is committed to San Francisco
State; Sophia Fanucci (Woodside) is committed to San Diego State; Courtney Ching
(Aragon) is committed to UC Santa Cruz;
Jessica Flohr (Crystal Springs Uplands) is

Kelly James (Woodside) is committed to
Missouri Valley College; and Melissa
Lalisan (Merced) intends to play at West

Chiefs safety Eric Berry back

at practice after cancer fight
By Dave Skretta
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ST. JOSEPH, Mo. There was a

moment in the early stages of
chemotherapy when Eric Berry was
having breakfast with his father, and
the enormity of what faced him was
so great that he broke down and cried.
For 30 minutes, one of the toughest players on the Kansas City
Chiefs wept.
Then, he resolved to beat cancer.
Eight months later, Berry walked
triumphantly onto the practice fields
at
Missouri
Western
State
University, joining rookies and
select veterans Wednesday for the
start of training camp.
Six merciless rounds of draining,
debilitating drugs had rid his body of
Hodgkins lymphoma, but they had
also stoked the passion that Berry
still harbors for the game.
Its been a roller coaster, he said,
but I wouldnt change it for the
world.
Flanked by his father, James, and
his mother, Carol, Berry spoke publicly for the first time since he was
diagnosed with cancer last December.
He recalled the terror that gripped
him when the mass was first found in
his chest, and the dark days that
immediately followed.
The days he didnt want to get out
of bed. The days he struggled to
choke down food, all of it tasteless.
The seemingly endless trips to the
hospital for each round of treatment.
In the beginning it was hard, it
really was, James Berry said.

Those possibilities go through

your mind
What if he cant
play again? You
think of those
types of things,
but then you
kick those to the
side. And when
Eric Berry
you looked at
Eric you said, This guy is a fighter.
Such a fighter that he chose to
receive treatment through an IV
rather than a PICC line, a semi-permanent catheter that would have prevented him from training.
Between each round of chemo,
Berry would squeeze in 10 to 12
workouts, sometimes struggling just
to do five push-ups. But he never lost
sight of an audacious goal: Be back
with the Chiefs by the time their season opens Sept. 13 in Houston.
Everybody wants you to be
strong in this situation, Berry said,
but you cant be strong every day. If
you want to be mad today, be mad. If
you want to be sad, be sad. But the
thing is, dont stay that way. Get it
out of your system and go back to
work.
Berry passed a battery of tests
before he was cleared to practice late
Tuesday, but it remains unclear when
hell fully participate in practice.
Chiefs trainer Rick Burkholder said
Berry will be monitored constantly,
especially during the early portion of
camp.
Veterans report Friday. The first
full-squad workout is Saturday.

One of the things Eric and I talked

about was just being honest with us
about how youre feeling out here,
coach Andy Reid said, and sometimes thats hard for a player to do,
especially with his makeup. Hes
been great with that up to this point
and I think that will continue
through.
After all, hes in a much better
place than he was eight months ago.
The three-time Pro Bowler first
knew something was amiss in
November, when he felt oddly out of
breath after a couple of games.
When things got worse during a
game against Oakland, Berry was put
through a series of tests that revealed
a mass in his chest. The diagnosis
was Hodgkins lymphoma, a treatable form of cancer that affects about
9,000 people in the U.S. each year.
His treatment began Dec. 10 at
Emory Universitys Winship Cancer
Institute, near his home in Atlanta.
And it wasnt easy: It literally
feels like youre dying, Berry
recalled, but youre not really battling chemo, youre battling yourself the whole time. It was me versus
me.
The final round of treatment was
May 13, followed by a month of
recovery.
He tolerated chemotherapy
extremely
well,
said
Dr.
Christopher R. Flowers, who directs
the cancer institutes lymphoma program. He achieved a complete
response to treatment.
On June 22, a follow-up PET scan
showed Berry was cancer-free.

As Franco transfers to Azusa next season,
he will be on the opposite end of the same

it is likely Franco will be competing for a

One of the centerpieces of the collection is

Cougars were drafted in 2015, including the
highest drafted player in program history in
Josh Staumont, who was selected in the second round by the Kansas City Royals.
Since our head coach took over those
are his recruits, Venegas said. I would
attribute that all to him. He does a great job
of developing players.
Franco is one of six players to transfer
from Skylines 2015 team thus far.
Division-I transfers include infielder Phil
Caulfield, Loyola Marymount University;

and second baseman Nobu Suzuki, Western

Carolina University. Other transfers include
right-hander Aldo Severson, Sonoma State
University; Ismael Orozco, Rogers State
University;
and right-hander Jake
Mellenthin, Vanguard University.

cheap, but it is legal.

Would the uproar be the same if this man
had taken a warthog that came off the preserve? Probably not. Warthogs arent nearly as majestic and cute as a lion.
Secondly, these hunters are not setting
these hunts up themselves. Its not like
this hunter was wandering around the bush
and stumbled across a lion. When you go
to Zimbabwe, you hire a professional
hunter, one who is familiar with the land
that will be hunted and who knows where
the animals will be. They basically put the
paying hunter in position to get his shot. I
guarantee this dentist had no idea the land
he was hunting on was butted up against a
game preserve. Thats the professional
hunters job to know and clearly he didnt
care.
Thirdly, the carcass did not go to waste.

All the meat from any animals taken on a

safari hunt go to the local tribes in the
area. Finally, many believe that because
someone named this lion, it was friendly.
There is no such thing as a friendly lion.
If people want to get upset about this
lions death, blame the country of
Zimbabwe for allowing these kind of
hunts. Blame the professional hunter for
knowingly luring a target off a protected
game preserve. But dont blame someone
for something that is completely legal
when the proper permits and rules are
followed. He had the permits, the professional hunter didnt follow the rules and
now a mans livelihood is ruined.
Heres a better suggestion for big-game
hunters: dont put pictures on social media.

Rethinking gardens
in a time of drought
By Dean Fosdick
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LANGLEY, Wash. Severe

drought is parching large sections of America, but that doesnt
mean giving up on gardening.
Plants can be coaxed through the
hot summer months despite
severe water restrictions.
Looking ahead, we expect dry
or erratic conditions for plants,
said Weston Miller, a horticulturist with Oregon State University
Extension. Planning landscapes
now for minimal watering is the
smart way to go.
Its safe to allow lawns to go
brown (dormant) in summer and
then bring them back in winter,
he said.
Maintain the smallest lawn
possible, especially if youre
going to irrigate, Miller said.
If there are some old roses or
other plants in your garden that
arent serving their purpose or
died because they werent getting
enough water, then replant them
with plants known to be droughtresistant.
Drought-tolerant plants pose
challenges of their own, however.

Odds are theyll die if not

watered well that first year, before
they become established, Miller
said. Plant things in the fall
when its cooler and watering
isnt needed. Then the winter
rains (or snow) will come along
and provide some help.
Add plants that thrive in dry
summers and wet winters. That
would include lavender and sage
(herbs), bougainvillea and vitis
californica (vines), lobelia and
common myrtle (shrubs), buffalo
grass and Bermudagrass (turf),
among many others.
Use soaker hoses or drip systems that deliver water more efficiently and cut down on evaporation.
Water in the morning, Miller
said. Dont water in the middle
of the day, as it will speed evaporation and can burn foliage on
particularly hot days.
Be proactive about watering
plants in containers, he said.
Once the soil has dried out in
pots, its difficult to get it rehydrated. You lose a fair amount of
nutrients in that soil, too.
Some Irrigation Association
tips for using less water while
gardening:

A recent survey of landscaping and garden trends by the homes website Houzz.com found that many new
home buyers already are reducing the size of their lawns or removing them entirely.
Mulch around plants and
shrubs. That reduces evaporation,
limits weed growth and moderates
soil temperatures.
Water often and for shorter
periods. Setting your irrigation
system to run for three, fiveminute intervals lets soil absorb
more water than watering for 15
minutes at one time.
Hydro-Zone your yard. Group
plants with similar moisture

needs in the same area, making it

easier to ensure they get the water
they need without overwatering.
Separate plants from grassy
areas, which have different watering requirements.
A recent survey of landscaping
and garden trends by the homes
website Houzz. com found that
many new home buyers already
are reducing the size of their
lawns or removing them entirely.

Its surprising how many are

putting in synthetic lawns. In
California, its 1 in 5. Im seeing
a lot of them, said Nino
Sitchinava, the principal economist at Houzz, who lives in Palo
Alto.
Even more people are going
back to mulch, which is a traditional approach, she said.
Other ground covers are becoming more popular than turf grass.

Mike Holmes: Buy a home using intelligence, not illusion

By Alicia Rancilio
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK Mike Holmes,

famous for calling out bad plumbing, woodworking and electrical
work on the HGTV show Holmes
on Homes, says there are steps
homebuyers can take to avoid
many of those problems.
Holmes has a new show on Fox
called Home Free (airing
Wednesdays at 9 p.m. EDT.) Its a
competition show on which nine
couples are challenged each week
to restore a run-down home in
Atlanta. They must live on the
job site and follow Holmes nononsense instruction. Couples
whose work isnt up to code are

gradually eliminated, and the

last remaining
couple wins a
home.
Here, Holmes
offers
some
advice for people looking to
Mike Holmes buy a home.
The answers
have been edited for clarity and
brevity.
As s o ci ated Pres s : Whats
the bi g g es t mi s take peo pl e
make when l o o ki ng to buy a
ho me?
Ho l me s : We buy based on
illusion. We dont buy with intelligence. We trust a real estate

agent that we dont even know.

More than anything, we buy by
what we see. Oh my god, its got
new paint. Look at the curb
appeal. Im trying to impress on
people that you need to do as
much homework as possible. Its
you that gets caught holding the
bag. Education is the key to
everything. Once you buy that
house, it is yours. Nobody elses.
AP: Take me thro ug h a ty pi c al s c e n ari o o f s o me o n e

Ho l mes : Take a couple well
call Mary and Joe. They decide to
buy a house and they get excited,
so all of a sudden their emotions
change. Mary and Joe start looking on the Internet, they start

driving around and picking a

property, and then they look for a
real estate agent. And when they
pick the house they want, then
they start looking for a home
inspector. If you plan on buying
a property, you should look for a
real estate agent first. Find the
best real estate agent on the market. Before you start looking at a
house, find the best home inspector there is.
AP: Ho w do y o u fi nd the
ri g ht real es tate ag ent o r
ho me i ns pecto r?
Ho l mes : Ask, How long have
you been in the business? What
areas have you worked in? How
many houses have you sold? In
other words, you start by asking a

ton of questions, and you want

answers. Do you have a list of
references? Call the references
and ask, Were they good? Were
they courteous? Did you get
(taken advantage of) in any way?
To a home inspector, ask, How
long have you been in the business? Did you do construction
before you did inspection?
AP: Wh at s t h e b i g g e s t
pro bl em i n ho me co ns tructi o n to day ?
Ho l mes : Mold is the No. 1
problem everywhere. You cant
see it, and if you cant see it, you
dont know what youre breathing
in, and I believe its the reason
for the rise of asthma and allergies.

Decorating with
West Coast vibe
By Kim Cook
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Theres no single definition of

California style: The states design
sensibilities are as varied and interesting as its geography and climate.
You can get a Cali vibe going in
lots of different directions.
For instance, moody colors and a
connection with the temperate,
coniferous forests of Northern
California
characterize
that
regions look. Think weathered
woods, leathers and boreal forest
and coastal hues like indigo, dark
green and stone.
Southern Californias a mix of
surf-culture casual and movie-studio glamour. Channel the sun and
sand with beachy, retro-modern
hues (deep aqua, coral, sand) and
reclaimed materials. Spacy midcentury modern furnishings in hot
orange, white, turquoise and fireball red add punch.
For
me,
quintessential
California Style is laidback, hip
and happy. Our gorgeous natural
light is the star, and we support it
with breezy fabrics, natural textures and a relaxed vibe, says Kim
Myles, Los Angeles-based winner
of HGTVs Design Star.
Her tips for aspiring Cali-cool
decorators: The key is to keep it

casual. California style is the

opposite of uptight, so step away
from high-maintenance fabrics and
fussy finishes. Simplicity is your
friend. One large statement a
single wall of color or a beautifully
patterned rug supported by lowkey furnishings is more Cali than a
room full of fussy clutter.
For that statement hue, consider
Farrow & Balls Yellowcake, St.
Giles Blue, Arsenic and
Charlottes Locks, as well as
Benjamin Moores China White
and Fresno.

Wicker and rattan are great materials for taking advantage of or
just evoking the indoor/outdoor
lifestyle. CB2s Nest coffee table
and Fray pendant fixture bring natural
textures
home.

One of Myles favorite sources
is Black Hill Design, a furniture

crafted coolness. Jake Scott,
Black Hills founder, thinks its

attracts Californians.
The West Coast has that easy
sensibility about it. Many
Californians are inherently connected with nature because of the
topography of the state, he says.
I think my pieces reflect some of
that. ... Simple, strong materials
with adherence toward a single
form. (www.blackhilldesign.com)

Pan-Pacific elements are part of
Californias design DNA. As
Menlo Park designer Rise Krag
puts it, Were on a coast that
shares tides with Asia, and theres

always been a fusion of Eastern

design elements and philosophy.
Krags mother used to buy Asian

Provocations:The Architecture and Design of Heatherwick Studio is now at the Cooper Hewitt,
Smithsonian Design Museum in New York through Jan. 3.

Exhibit explores the

range, imagination of
Heatherwick design
By Katherine Roth
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK The imaginative and wideranging work of Britains Heatherwick

Studio may still be little-known in America,
but a traveling exhibition aims to change
that.
Provocations: The Architecture and
Design of Heatherwick Studio is now at the
Cooper Hewitt, Smithsonian Design
Museum in New York through Jan. 3. The
major mid-career survey was organized by
the Nasher Sculpture Center in Dallas, and
has also already been on view at the Hammer
Museum in Los Angeles.
It
explores
designer
Thomas
Heatherwicks joyful takes on everything
from furniture to architecture, holiday cards
to arty air vents. His range of interests led
his mentor, designer Terence Conran, to call
him the Leonardo da Vinci of our times.
Heatherwick is more prominent in
London, where his projects have included
the mechanical cauldron used in the 2012
Olympics; it consisted of dozens of small
petal-shaped torches one for each nation
that dramatically rose and joined together forming a single flame.
In the United States, his only major completed work is the interior remodel of the
Longchamp store in Manhattan, which features an unusual, ribbon-like staircase and a
clear, slumped, glass handrail.
But more is on the way. Heatherwick is
behind the dramatic design for Pier55 in
Manhattan, featuring an undulating park
landscape, outdoor theater and performance
spaces, all built on enormous concrete
piles. Its slated for completion in 2018.
And the studio is designing a new Google
campus, in collaboration with BIG (Bjarke
Ingels Group), in Mountain View,
California.
Hes poised to break through in North
America, said Brooke Hodge, deputy director of the Cooper Hewitt, who curated the
show here.
The exhibit looks at 43 projects through
prototypes, presentation and sketch models, full-scale mock-ups, objects, photos
and video footage.
Born in 1970, Heatherwick studied design
before establishing his own studio in 1994.
He was inspired by the traditional concept
of a master builder, who combined the roles
and skills of builder, craftsman, engineer
and designer.
His studio consists of over 160 people

with backgrounds in engineering, architecture, product design, landscape architecture,

project management, sculpture, photography, theater design, craft and making,
Heatherwick wrote in the recently revised
and reissued edition of his mammoth book,
Making (written with Maisie Rowe and
published by Monacelli Press).
Each project is approached as the search
for an answer to a single guiding question.
For the Olympics cauldron: How can every
country in the Olympic Games take part in
making and lighting the cauldron?
They tackle everything from furniture
and handbags to really major architecture
projects with this unique approach to problem solving, Hodge explained. There is
no one signature style, and every solution is
unique.
The studio combines novel engineering
with new materials and technology. Its
approach first gained international recognition with the 2004 hydraulic Rolling
Bridge near Londons Paddington Station.
Designed to be as beautiful when raised as it
is when spanning a small channel, the
bridge rolls into a geometric snail-like form
when not in use. A large working model of it
is on view in the show.
Heatherwicks striking new design of the
classic London double-decker bus recently
took to the streets of the British capital.
The show features a pair of seats (with
Heatherwick-designed fabric) and a fullscale mock-up of the new bus rear section
(the studios answer to Can a London bus be
better and use 40 percent less fuel?).
A number of Heatherwicks furniture
designs are also on display. Plank
Furniture, on sale in the museum shop,
resembles a plank of wood, albeit a posh
one. It can be folded in several ways to
become a bench or table, or remain inconspicuously plank-like.
Also in the exhibit is the rotation-molded
2011 Spun chair. Recently acquired for the
museums permanent collection, it resembles an enormous toy top, and has been
designed for both sitting still and spinning.
Heatherwick buildings are no less imaginative. The Bombay Sapphire Distillery in
Laverstoke, England, features two enormous
greenhouses that appear to be poured from
two high windows of a former paper mill.
His ideas do not come easily, Heatherwick
explains, but are an intense mixture of certainty and doubt, breakthroughs and dead
ends, tension and hilarity, frustration and
progress.

Along with the sunscreen, book, toys and

snacks we haul to our waterside of choice this
summer, we need a beach towel or two.
The big canvas of a beach towel lends
itself to big ideas, with room to let designs
and colors romp.
For instance, the Los Angeles-based, highend textile house Fresco has a collection of
beach towels reminiscent of antique
Southwest-inspired rugs. They have a fauxfaded quality thats enhanced by the luminous
plushness of the Turkish cotton weave. The
Golden Eagle features a dramatic bird image,
and Mesa Diamond is another evocation of
Native American textile art. www.frescotowels.com
Anthropologies carrying a luxe line of
beach towels crafted in collaboration with
Brazilian fine artist Monica Nador. Her
Cocovado towel designs speak to her work
with acrylic paints and stencils in the poorer
neighborhoods on the edge of Sao Paolo.
Vibrant aqua meets hot red in rich motifs on
one towel; sapphire and green hues tint a
mosaic pattern; a drum motif is rendered in
azure or hot pink. www.anthropologie.com
Online retailer One Kings Lane has partnered with a number of well-known designers
on a beach towel collection that rolls out
through the summer. Proceeds support the
designers preferred charities, including
Alpha Workshops, which helps HIV-AIDS
victims, and Baby2Baby, which assists Los
Angeles families in need. Celerie Kemble,
Tracy Reese, Nanette Lepore, Rebecca
Minkoff, Steven Alan and Robert Verdi are
among the designers. Reeses was one of the
debut collections, with wave and tropicalplant motifs in Popsicle hues. www.onekingslane.com
Target has some photo-printed beach towels with appeal to both kids and adults: A gen-

tle golden retriever holds a newspaper on one;

goldfish swim across the expanse of another.
A Ferris wheel, that icon of summer joy,
adorns a third.
Find here too Nate Berkus collection of
Newport-worthy preppy beach towels with
designs like labyrinths, diagonal stripes and
other geometrics rendered in navy, sunny yellow, aqua and red. For the kids, check out
Targets whimsical array of beach towel
capes, part of a superhero collection of summer toys and accessories. Theres a Batmanstyle cape with hood and ears, a bright red
Captain America-esque cape with lightning
bolt crest, and a snazzy Wonder Woman-style
towel for the fearless little swim gals.
www.target.com
For older kids, Pottery Barn Teen has towels
with surfer-cool designs like hibiscus flowers, Tiki prints and tie-dye patterns in summery hues, as well as sporty towels for baseball fans, with team logos. www.pbteen.com
If youre the creative type, check out
www.marthastewart.com for ideas on how to
embellish a towel with a tic tac toe grid to
play at the beach, or make a tote bag out of a
towel, or add pockets or ripstop nylon to
expand the use of a beach towel.
Finally, crafters Sandra Vogt and Jo Dotson
of Lexington, Ky., came up with the clever
notion of sewing a bunch of towels together
to make a true beach blanket.
Necessity was definitely our inspiration,
says Vogt. After many trips to the beach
with towels that werent big enough, we came
up with the idea to sew them together to make
a giant one. Its worked marvelously well
since then and weve used the blankets dozens
of times.
Using six large towels, you end up with a
towel large enough for the whole gang.
Lining the back of it with an old shower curtain or vinyl picnic tablecloth provides additional protection on wet pool decks or soggy
sand.

received approval to begin operating
substance abuse treatment services
Wednesday.
The nonprofit has a long-standing
history of providing a range of medical services and is even marked by
being the nations first free clinic having opened its original site in San
Francisco during the late 1960s,
according to HealthRight.
San Mateo Mayor Maureen Freschet
said shes proud the organization has
opened a site in the centrally located
city and believes its motto of treating
the whole person will serve the community well.
People with mental health issues or
substance abuse are often unfairly stigmatized, misunderstood, so they need a
safe place where they can go. Where
they can get the treatment they need,
but feel that theyre in good hands with
people that are compassionate and
truly understand the challenges theyre
facing, Freschet said.
During an emotional speech, Khloe,
a recent graduate from HealthRights
Womens Recovery Association program, touched on the value of having
resources to restore her path.
Today, Im able to show up for life.
I have a full-time job and friends that I
cherish. Before the program, my
life was like the size of a marshmal-

such as Airbnb, however, are not
restricted in San Mateo County but
Harr thinks they should be.
There is good reason to be pre-emptive. They should operate under the
same standards hotels do. The sooner
these policies are in place, the better
off we are, Harr said.
So far in this county, only the San
Mateo City Council has looked into
taxing individuals whove turned their
homes into short-term vacation
rentals.
The council took up the issue in
March and discussed ways to capture
the lost tax revenue and whether other
regulations are needed related to safety
and parking.
Earlier this month, the San Mateo
County Board of Supervisors approved
a $300,000 expenditure to support HIP
Housings home-sharing program.
The money for HIP Housing, which
matches those who have space in their
homes with those who need an affordable place to live, will go toward hiring a community outreach specialist

low, and now, my world has no limits,

Khloe said. With the opening of this
program, it will give people like
myself, in the same predicament, to
find the help that they need and hopefully, better their lives and realize
change is possible.
Steve Kaplan, director of the countys Behavioral Health and Recovery
Services, said it is clients and supportive staff that make centers a success.
Im looking forward to the stories
that come out of the work thats done
here, about peoples recovery and the
restoration of their lives and the
reclaiming of their family life and
their place in the community. Because
thats whats going to happen here and
thats, at the end of the day, the most
important thing, Kaplan said.
Eisen said San Mateo County officials have been forward thinking in
how to care and provide for those who
have mental health or substance abuse
issues, particularly in planning for the
expansion of the Affordable Care Act.
The Pioneer Center began as a county initiative and after it gets going,
will be primarily funded through MediCal, Eisen said.
Many local residential treatment
centers are still awaiting a waiver to
the ACA that would allow them to
charge for the substance abuse portion
of their care a delay thats caused
nonprofits like Project 90, Our
Common Ground and the Latino
Commission to consider closing some
of their live-in facilities.
Eisen said shes pleased to be con-

tributing to the countys full spectrum

of offerings that includes detox, inpatient and outpatient resources.
Kaplan noted the countys challenges
and is
confident
in
HealthRights ability to add to an
accessible system for those in need of
substance abuse and mental health
treatment.
One of our biggest challenges as we
continue to look at the delivery of
services in San Mateo County is
matching up the demand thats out
there with accessing services that are
helpful and relevant, culturally linguistic, gender, etc., and adding this
resource to our community and our list
of providers is just a terrific move forward, Kaplan said. Its a big challenge and we want to make sure people
get the right care at the right place and
the right time in the right way when
they need it. And the more we can
bring online services of high quality,
the better were doing in the progress
were making.

and the funding of a marketing campaign.

More than 90 percent of individuals
using HIPs home-sharing program
qualify as low- to- extremely-low
income and 60 percent of the providers
are seniors aging in place.
HIP provides housing through the
program to 350 people a year.
Without the countys contribution,
HIP Housing could not compete in any
way with Airbnb, Harr said.
The company is now valued at more
than $25 billion.
Founded in 2008, Airbnb has been
used by 25 million people in more
than 34,000 cities spread across 190
countries.
Home sharing is an economic lifeline for thousands of Bay Area families
who depend on the extra income to
stay in their homes. We are proud of
the impact our communitys contribution to the Bay Area, driving almost
$470 million in economic activity
over the last year alone in the city of
San Francisco, Airbnb spokesman
Christopher Nulty wrote the Daily
Journal in an email.
The company contends it helps people make ends meet who need the flexibility of a short-term visitor versus

long-term tenant.
The company also has safety mechanisms to protect both the host and
guest.
HIP, however, conducts criminal
background checks, quarterly checkins and looks for signs of elder abuse.
Airbnb is not bad by nature. Its
just so debilitating here where we have
so little housing, Harr said.
Most of HIPs housing providers are
seniors, about 60 percent, who are
cash poor and housing rich, she said.
Airbnbs claim that it is helping
seniors age in place is the same one
HIP and home-sharing providers all
over the country have made for
decades.
Airbnb creates a challenge in San
Mateo County because of all the jobs
being created here without the creation
of new housing, according to HIP.
The nonprofit is hoping that Airbnb
would stop convoluting the term
home sharing and that it be recognized what a disservice is being done
to the community whenever a room,
unit or guest quarters that could be permanent housing for someone who
already lives, works or goes to school

Turkish attacks on Kurds muddle Obamas IS fight

By Josh Lederman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

REUTERS

Smoke rises after what Kurdish Peoples Protection Units fighters say was shelling by them at locations controlled by Islamic
State fighters in Ghwayran neighborhood in Syria.

ANKARA, Turkey President Barack Obamas steppedup partnership with Turkey in fighting the Islamic State
may come at the cost of alienating
another key group hes counting on for
help in the same conflict: the Kurds.
To Obamas relief, Turkey has finally
started bombing Islamic State targets in
neighboring Syria, and agreed to let the
U.S. military launch airstrikes from key
air bases inside Turkey in a deal
announced last week. But in an unexpected twist, Turkey simultaneously started
Barack Obama shelling Kurdish rebels in Iraq, where
Kurds have proven unusually capable of wresting back territory from the Islamic State militants with the help of air
support from the U.S.-led coalition.
The White House has publicly sided with Turkey, endorsing the NATO allys right to defend itself against recent
deadly attacks in Turkey by the Kurdistan Workers Party, or
PKK. But Iraqs prime minister says the Turkish strikes violate Iraqs sovereignty, and U.S. officials have quietly signaled theyre urging Turkey to lay off.
Its a dizzying array of alliances that illustrates Obamas
paucity of good options for partners in his campaign
against the Islamic State, an extremist Sunni militant group
known in Arabic as Daesh. The U.S. considers the PKK,
which has waged a long insurgency in Turkey, to be a terrorist group, but is supporting and equipping other Kurdish
forces in Iraq and Syria that share the PKKs goal of defeating the Islamic State.
Knowingly or not, the U.S. is going to end up having to
choose between the Turks and the Kurds, said Blaise
Misztal, national security director at the Washington-based
Bipartisan Policy Center.
While defending Turkey publicly, the U.S. has been urging Turkey to be judicious in its retaliation against the
PKK, senior U.S. officials said. But Turkeys air campaign
shows few signs of letting up.
Turkish jets hit Kurdish rebel targets in northern Iraq
overnight and the government said strikes would continue
until the rebels lay down their arms. White House
spokesman Eric Schultz called Wednesday for a return to
the peaceful solution process, but Turkeys prime minister
shot down that prospect until the PKK withdraws its armed
fighters from Turkey.
Despite the strikes against the PKK, the U.S. is pledging
to work with Turkey to create a 68-mile Islamic State-free
zone along its border with Syria.
But the White House has rejected claims that Obama
agreed to look the other way to secure Turkeys help against
IS. Although Turkey began shelling Islamic State and
Kurdish targets on the same day, the administration insists
theres no connection.

Afghanistan: Taliban
leader Mullah Omar
dead for over two years
By Lynne ODonnell
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

KABUL, Afghanistan Afghanistan asserted Wednesday

that the Talibans reclusive leader, Mullah Mohammad
Omar, died more than two years ago in a
Pakistani hospital an announcement
that injects new uncertainty into the
countrys fragile peace process.
If confirmed, the surprising news of
the death of Mullah Omar would remove a
unifying figure for the insurgents, who
are believed to be split on whether to
continue the war or negotiate with the
government of President Ashraf Ghani.
Mullah Omar
In Washington, the U.S. government
said they considered the report of the
Taliban leaders death credible, though it was not confirmed
by the Taliban or Pakistan.
The Afghan governments announcement came just two
days before a second round of peace talks between the government and negotiators claiming to speak for the Taliban
leadership. It also raises questions about the authority of
Taliban representatives who attended a first round of talks
in Pakistan on July 7, as well as earlier informal meetings
in Qatar and Norway.
Abdul Hassib Sediqi, the spokesman for Afghanistans
National Directorate of Security, said Mullah Omar died at a
hospital in the Pakistani city of Karachi in April 2013.
We confirm officially that he is dead, Sediqi told the
Associated Press. He was very sick in a Karachi hospital
and died suspiciously there, he said, without elaborating.
A statement later Wednesday from the office of the president said it had confirmed the death based on what it called
accurate information and insisted that Mullah Omars
demise would benefit peace efforts.
