Draper ready for prime time


Entrepreneurial boarding school set of reality TV Startup U
By Samantha Weigel
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

For anyone whos wandered through


downtown San Mateo and wondered
what goes on behind the doors of
Draper University of Heroes, tune in to
ABC Family Tuesday, Aug. 11, as the
entrepreneurial boarding school is
spotlighted with the premier of the
Startup U.
The seven-week long program for

burgeoning students seeking to


become seasoned entrepreneurs is the
brainchild of eccentric venture capitalist Tim Draper, who also stars in this
unscripted TV series.
Startup U tracks the escapades of
the universitys most recent class of
young go-getters seeking to turn their
ideas into success by competing during the finale known as Pitch Day.
Draper University is a unique setup
for this documentary series because we

are a very different school where students learn the fundamentals of launching a startup company under the mentorship of Americas business leaders,
said Draper University CEO Andy
Tang. At the end, they pitch their
ideas to a panel of venture capitalists
with the hope that they will get a lifechanging investment to launch their
business.

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

With a new classic and iconic


graphic produced by a legendary
Bay Area artist, the Downtown San
Mateo Association has a rebranding campaign that officials hope
will highlight what the vibrant
business district has to offer.
Graphic artist Michael Schwab,
best known for his Golden Gate
National Park series, developed
the DSMAs new logo thats meant
to capture the strength, integrity
and history of downtown.
Elected officials, city staff and
members of the DSMA gathered
with Schwab at the San Mateo
Main Library Monday to unveil
the new logo and announce the
organizations revamped website.

Odile Renery and Mike Doeltz, at
Pacific Skies Estates. A new
prefabricated home with a one-car
garage sits empty at the mobile
home park in Pacifica. Many older
trailers are being dismantled and
removed.

At least 22 notices of termination were sent to residents of


Pacific Skies Estates, a mobile
home park on the coast in
Pacifica, and the rest of the residents fear they too face eviction.
Susan Burwell, 69, received her
notice July 29.
Although about 15 of the prefabricated homes are owned by the
occupants who lease their spaces,
the remainder are renters including
Burwell.
Although her rent is only
$1,200 a month, Burwells income
from Social Security is only
$1,296 a month.
Burwell, who has lived there
seven years, has no idea where she
will live after she is forced to move
out Sept. 29.
Although management would
not confirm it, it appears the
unnamed owners intend to replace
every home, 93, with newer prefab
homes.

Reclamation for troubled school bond underway


South San Francisco school officials find funding for construction projects
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

A bond benefiting South San


Francisco schools derailed by a
botched spending plan is getting
back on track, and many of the
projects are again fully funded,
according to school officials.

Measure J, the $162 million


bond passed in 2010, fell into an
$11 million shortfall following a
variety of questionable decisions
and maneuvers by district officials
charged with managing the funds,
an independent audit found in
June.
But as the district nears comple-

Bronstein

tion of a current round of construction, and officials set their sights


on beginning a final phase, the
necessary funds have been secured
to deliver ongoing projects as initially promised, according to district spokesman Ryan Sebers.
All bond funds are accounted
for and all current projects are

fully funded, said Sebers in a prepared statement. Owing to unanticipated increased costs, the district has identified alternative
funding sources to complete all
bond projects as originally
planned.

Prolific photojournalist dies


Reginald McGovern started at Redwood City Tribune in 1945
By Bill Silverfarb
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Reginald McGovern, a former staff photographer for the Redwood City Tribune,
died Aug. 5 from complications from a fall.
He was 95.
McGovern had a 36-year career as a photojournalist, starting with the Tribune in
1945 as its staff photographer.
He collaborated in recent years with his
wife Janet to publish local history books
about Redwood City and Menlo Park. He
was an avid train lover and his photographs
appear in a book his wife wrote about
Caltrain.
He also started his own record company,
Fidelity Sound Recordings, as he had a profound love for band music.
The first of more than 200 record productions was of Stocktons College of Pacific
Band. Over the next five decades, McGovern
recorded many top college bands, as well as
foreign groups such as the New Zealand
Army Band, the National Band of New
Zealand, and H.M. Royal Marine Band. He
had a particularly close association with the
Ohio State University Marching Band and,
in 2005, its alumni club made him an honorary life member as a result of his nearly
two dozen recordings, according to Janet.
It was through music that McGovern
developed a deep bond with the Salvation
Army, traveling again and again to New
Zealand and Australia starting in the 1950s
to record their outstanding brass bands. He
recorded many Sallie-Ann bands and choruses in the United States, Canada and
England and regarded his Salvation Army
association and friendships among the most
important in his life, according to Janet.
Another close associate was George
Gananian, who first met McGovern in
1957. They saw each other every day until

Reginald McGovern
1975 as Gananian was in the picture engraving business and shared an office in the
same building.
The Tribunes sister papers included the
Palo Alto Times and Burlingame Advance.
Gananian was close with McGovern until
he died.
He took me under his wing. He was
always outgoing, funny, never taking anything too serious, Gananian said.
Born in Redwood City, McGovern was the
son of San Mateo County Sheriff Thomas
McGovern and his wife, Hilda, who became
the first woman state traffic officer in San
Mateo County in 1928 months after her
husbands death, according to Janet.
He resided almost his entire life in

graduate attended San Mateo Junior College
and then worked briefly for United Airlines
before joining the U.S. Coast Guard. He
served during World War II in the South
Pacific aboard the ammunition ship, the
U.S.S. Murzim, according to Janet.
McGovern developed a knack for photography serving in the Navy, Gananian said.
He covered the San Francisco 49ers for
years and shot the Beatles when the band
performed for the last time at Candlestick
Park in 1966, Gananian said.
He took the best candid shots, he said.
McGovern won numerous awards for news
and feature photos during his 36-year career.
One dramatic shot of a San Carlos chemical
company fire was the most honored news
photo of 1950, according to Janet. Curious
and outgoing, he had a natural nose for news
and an eye for unusual angles. An ardent animal lover, his favorite subjects were cats,
monkeys and goats, and he welcomed
assignments at Marine World-Africa USA or
the Peninsula Humane Society, according to
Janet.
In addition to his wife of 30 years,
McGovern is survived by his two sons,
Thomas of South San Francisco, and James
of Walnut Creek and his wife, Kim; two
grandchildren and four great-grandchildren.
Plans for a memorial service are being
made.

School bus crash leaves 12


children with minor injuries
BERKELEY The California
Highway Patrol says a crash
involving a school bus has left at
least 12 children with minor
injuries such as bruises and bloody
noses.
Officer Sean Wilkenfeld said the
bus was carrying about 50 between
the ages of 5 and 15 when the accident happened on Interstate 80 in
Berkeley on Monday morning.
Wilkenfeld says the children
were on their way from Berkeley to
a park in Oakland when the bus
rear-ended a car, setting off a chain
reaction of collisions with four
other vehicles.
Four adults on the bus and some
of the children were taken to a
local hospital for further evaluation while paramedics from the
Berkeley Fire Department treated
the least serious injuries on-site.
Wilkenfeld says CHP officers are
contacting parents to see if they
want to pick up their children.

Man arrested for


attempted murder
A Daly City man was taken into
custody Friday night in South San
Francisco on suspicion for an
attempted murder in the area of
Chestnut and Grand avenues the
previous afternoon, according to
police.
At about 2:30 p.m. Thursday,
police responded to a report of
gunshots in the area and, shortly
after, a 29-year-old mechanic from
San Mateo showed up at Seton
Medical Center in Daly City with a
non-fatal gunshot wound to his
head, according to police. Officers
determined that the victim was in a

Local briefs
vehicle driven by two suspected
San Bruno gangmembers and were
together because the mechanic was
going to inspect the vehicle for
repairs. While the three were driving in South San Francisco, a man
on foot near Chestnut and Oak
avenues fired at them.
At about 6:30 p.m. Friday, officers with the San Mateo County
Gang Task Force noticed a man
matching the description of the
victim walking in the area of
Willow Avenue and Marcie Circle
in South San Francisco, close to
where the shooting took place.
When officers attempted to speak
to him, he ran and discarded a
loaded firearm, according to
police.
The gun was determined to have
been the same used in the shooting
and the man, identified as Jose
Antonio Nava, 21, was arrested.
He previously lived in South San
Francisco and has affiliation with
a known criminal street gang,
according to police.

BAY CITY NEWS SERVICE

The San

County
Coroners Office Monday identified an infant killed Thursday in
Redwood City, according to

Ferguson back
on edge after
latest shooting
By Jim Satler
and Alan Scher Zagier
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

FERGUSON, Mo. Ferguson


was a community on edge again
Monday, a day after a protest marking the anniversary of Michael
Browns death was punctuated with
gunshots and police critically
wounded a black 18-year-old
accused of opening fire on officers.
Police, protesters and people
who live and work in the St. Louis
suburb were bracing for what
another night of demonstrations
along West Florissant Avenue
might bring. The thoroughfare was
the site of massive protests and
rioting after Brown was fatally
shot last year in a confrontation
with a white Ferguson officer.
Of course Im worried, said
Sandy Sansevere, a retired health
care worker who volunteers at the
retail store operated by the nonprofit group I Love Ferguson,
which was formed after Browns
death to promote the community.
What scares me are the guns.
Several hundred people had gathered by 9 p.m. Monday, chanting
and holding signs. There were no
apparent signs of conflict.

Earlier in the day, the father of


the suspect who was shot called
the police version of events a
bunch of lies. He said two girls
who were with his son told him he
was unarmed and had been drawn
into a dispute involving two
groups of young people.
St. Louis County Executive
Steve Stenger declared a state of
emergency, which authorizes
county Police Chief Jon Belmar to
take control of police emergency
management in and around
Ferguson.
Protests spilled outside of
Ferguson. Almost 60 protesters
were arrested around midday
Monday for blocking the entrance
to the federal courthouse in downtown St. Louis. Authorities
planned to release them on a promise to appear later in court.
Protesters later briefly blocked
Interstate 70 during the late afternoon rush hour, with an additional
undetermined number of arrests
made.
Among those arrested at the
courthouse was scholar and civil
rights activist Cornel West.
That protest, like other commemoration events over the past
few days, was largely peaceful and
somber. But on Sunday, several

hundred people gathered in the
street on West Florissant, ignoring an officer on a bullhorn repeatedly warning them to get to the
sidewalk or face arrest. Eventually,
a few lobbed glass bottles and
rocks at officers. One officer was
hospitalized with cuts to the face
after being hit with a rock. Two
others had minor injuries after protesters sprayed them with pepper
spray.
As tensions escalated, several
gunshots suddenly rang out from
the area near a strip of stores,
including some that had been looted moments earlier. Belmar
believes the shots came from

about six different shooters. What


prompted the shooting was not
clear, but Belmar said two groups
had been feuding. The shots sent
protesters and reporters running
for cover.
The shooters included the suspect, Tyrone Harris Jr., whom
police had been watching out of
concern that he was armed, Belmar
said.
During the gunfire, the suspect
crossed the street and apparently
spotted plainclothes officers
arriving in an unmarked van with
distinctive red and blue police

New step in Trumps feud with


Fox News; Clinton weighs in
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON

Donald
Trumps turbulent relationship with
Fox News showed signs of
improvement Monday even as
Democrat Hillary Rodham Clinton
seized on the billionaire businessmans clash with the network to
cast his Republican rivals as being
bad for women.
Trump and Fox News, one of the
most
powerful
voices
in
Republican and conservative circles, have been in a bitter feud since
last weeks presidential debate.
While he leads recent polls, the former reality television star has
drawn heated criticism from many
in his own party for saying Fox
moderator Megyn Kelly had blood
coming out of her eyes, blood coming out of her wherever.
The networks chairman, Roger
Ailes, reached out to Trump directly
Monday, assuring him hell be
treated fairly by the station,
Trump tweeted Monday.
Roger Ailes just called. He is a

great guy &


assures me that
Trump will be
treated fairly on
(at )Fo x News .
His word is
always good!
wrote Trump,
whose unorthodox campaign is
Donald Trump dominating the
race and summertime polls.
In a statement Monday evening,
Ailes described the conversation as
blunt but cordial and said the air
had been cleared.
Donald Trump and I spoke today.
We discussed our concerns, and I
again expressed my confidence in
Megyn Kelly, Ailes said, describing Kelly as a brilliant journalist
whom he supports 100 percent.
Ailes added that he assured Trump
that we will continue to cover this
campaign with fairness & balance.
Kelly was expected to address the
spat during her show Monday
evening, a Fox News spokeswoman

said. Trump will


also appear on
two of the networks shows,
Fox & Friends
and Hannity,
Tuesday.
Speaking publicly for the first
time since the
Hillary Clinton debate, Clinton
on Monday said
Trumps comments about Kelly
should not overshadow the rest of
the GOP fields policies dealing
with women.
They brag about slashing
womens health care funding,
Clinton told reporters while campaigning in New Hampshire. They
say they would force women who
have been raped to carry their
rapists child, and we dont hear any
of them supporting raising the minimum wage, paid leave for new parents, access to quality child care,
equal pay for women or anything
else that will help to give women a
chance to get ahead.

Residents demand answers as mine spill fouls rivers


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ALBUQUERQUE, N. M.
Farmers, towns and tribes
slammed water-intake gates shut
as a sludge-laden plume from a
Colorado mine spill rolled down
principal rivers in the desert
Southwest on Monday, prompting
local officials and families to
demand answers about possible
long-term threats from heavy metals borne along by the spill.

Colorado and New Mexico


declared stretches of the Animas
and San Juan rivers to be disaster
areas as the orange-colored waste
stream estimated to be 100 miles
long churned downstream toward
Lake Powell in Utah after the spill
Wednesday at the abandoned Gold
King mine.
The Navajo Nation, which covers parts of New Mexico, Utah and
Arizona, also declared an emergency as it shut down water intake

systems and stopped diverting


water from the San Juan River.
Members of the tribal council
were frustrated during a special
meeting Monday and echoed the
sentiment of New Mexico officials
that the federal government needs
to be held accountable.
New Mexico Gov. Susana
Martinez, who toured the region
over the weekend, said she was
heartbroken and called the spill a
catastrophe.

Bernie Sanders speaks


with nurses in Bay Area
By Janie Har
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO A national


nurses union warmly welcomed
Democratic candidate Bernie
Sanders to Oakland on Monday,
along with his message of taxing
the wealthy, better health care for
all, and free college tuition for students.
In a short speech before hundreds
of nurses, Sanders railed against the
one percent who he says are gobbling up property at the expense of
everyone else. He said its crazy
that people go to jail for drugs
while Wall Street speculators have
faced zero punishment. And he said
that our paltry health care system is
a global embarrassment.
This land does belong to you and
me, it belongs to all of us and not a

handful, Sanders said to members


of National Nurses United who were
at the site and also listening by
phone and Web. Former U.S.
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is
considered the front runner for the
Democratic nomination in 2016.
But Sanders, a self-described democratic socialist, has gained a fervent
following among people energized
by his populist campaign and his
plain talk.
There were no issues involving
Black Lives Matter protesters, as
had been the case in Seattle Saturday
where protesters took over a microphone, forcing Sanders to abandon
an afternoon speech.
On Monday, a nurse asked
Sanders by phone how he would
address racism within the criminal
justice system. His answer was
prompt.

Washington Post reporter
could soon get verdict in Iran case
TEHRAN, Iran The Iranian-American
reporter for the Washington Post detained in
Tehran for more than a year on charges
including espionage spoke in his own
defense Monday during a final closed-door
hearing in a trial that has been criticized by
the paper and press freedom advocates.
A verdict in journalist Jason Rezaians
case could come as early as next week, said
his lawyer, Leila Ahsan. She told the
Associated Press she submitted a 20-page
defense brief at the start of Mondays session, gave an oral defense during the hearing, and provided the court with a separate
written statement at the end following
remarks from the prosecutor.
Ahsan confirmed that Rezaian also
addressed the court during the hearing,
which she said was the last in the case. She
declined to provide details, citing confidentiality rules surrounding the trial.
Rezaians mother, Mary, appeared at the
courthouse with her sons wife and fellow
journalist, Yeganeh Salehi, though they
were not allowed inside the courtroom as in
past hearings.

Violence in Turkey leaves at least nine dead


By Lefteris Pitarakis and Suzan Fraser
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ISTANBUL Two female assailants


opened fire at the U.S. Consulate in Istanbul
on Monday and at least six Turkish security
forces were killed elsewhere in a day of
heavy violence in Turkey, where a government crackdown has targeted Islamic State
militants, Kurdish rebels and far-left
extremists.
Turkey has seen a sharp spike in clashes
between security forces and rebels of the
Kurdistan Workers Party, or PKK, in the a
wake of its campaign against PKK targets in
Iraq in tandem with airstrikes against
Islamic State militants in Syria. Hundreds of
suspected militants have also been rounded
up at home.
No one was hurt in the attack on the U.S.
Consulate, which came just weeks after
Turkey agreed to take a more active role in
the U.S.-led campaign against the Islamic
State group and to allow the U.S.-led coalition to use its bases in the fight against IS.
On Sunday, the U.S. military announced that
a detachment of six F-16 fighter jets and
some 300 personnel had arrived at Turkeys
southern Incirlik Air Base.

Both assailants fled, and one was later
shot and taken into custody. The
Revolutionary Peoples Liberation ArmyFront, or DHKP-C identified her as 51-yearold Hatice Asik and said she was a member
of the group, which is considered a terrorist
organization by the U.S. and Turkey. The
other assailant was still at large.
In a statement on its website the group
described Asik as a revolutionary fighting
American oppression and vowed to main-

tain its struggle until Turkey is cleared of


all U.S. bases on its territory.
Turkeys Foreign Ministry condemned the
attack and said security at U.S. missions
around the country had been increased. It
said Turkey was determined to fight terrorism through cooperation and solidarity
with its NATO ally.
In Washington, State Department
Spokesman John Kirby said U.S. officials
were working with Turkish authorities to
investigate the incident.

Afghan president calls on Pakistan to rein in Taliban


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

KABUL, Afghanistan The Afghan president called on Pakistan on Monday to crack


down on the Taliban after a suicide car
bombing earlier in the day near Kabuls
international airport killed five people, the
latest in a wave of deadly attacks in the capital.
In a televised address, Ashraf Ghani also
blamed neighboring Pakistan for what he

described as Islamabads support to the


insurgents whose war against Kabul is now
nearing its 14th year, and said he was sending a delegation to Islamabad later this
week to demand a stop to this.
We know they have sanctuaries there, we
know they are active there, Ghani said,
referring to Taliban leaders living in
Pakistan. We need all those activities to be
stopped.
Since assuming office a year ago, Ghani
has pursued closer relations with Pakistan,

which wields influence over the insurgent


group, hoping that it could use that influence to bring the Taliban into peace negotiations.
Pakistan, which has in the past denied
supporting the Taliban, said it remains committed to maintaining good relations with
Kabul and that after losing tens of thousands of its own people to terrorist attacks,
it can feel the pain and anguish of the
brotherly people of Afghanistan over the
latest attacks there.

Millbrae red light cameras
Editor,
Alexander Xue and John Dillon,
representing thousands of drivers
who have received unfair tickets, are
right to condemn Millbraes red
light cameras (in response to Xues
letter in the Aug. 5 edition of the
Daily Journal and Dillons letter in
the Aug. 7 edition of the Daily
Journal).Those cameras are schemes
to generate revenue from people who
cant afford it, and have little to do
with safety. Theyve been removed
from almost every other local city.
John Dillon also suggested a great
idea:a boycott of Millbrae businesses until the cameras are
removed.I have been boycotting
Millbrae businesses ever since I got
a ticket for a perfectly safe righthand turn years ago.Now the only
time I will go to Millbrae is when I
need to take BART. And when I do, I
come to a complete stop, wait long
enough (I hope) to satisfy the cameras algorithms, and then, with elevated heartbeat, make my turn.

In response to letters to the editor

Mr. E. Picchi I take my hat off to
you both for your accurate description of the mess that Millbrae is in.
I am in all regards a Millbraeite.
Born, went to school and spent my
entire 72 years as a proud resident. I
live in the house my father built
back in 1929 but am ashamed and
embarrassed to say that I am from
Millbrae. Yes, there is a major problem with Deans Produce hogging up
three to four parking spaces when
unloading supplies until 10 a.m. Not
to mention delivery trucks, large
ones, double parking on Broadway. I
have on numerous occasions pointed
this problem out without any
results. Yes, the sidewalks are
shameful from Taylor Boulevard to
Millbrae Avenue. Yes, I agree with
Mr. Picchi that Councilman Lee has
no idea what Millbrae needs, not
another restaurant for sure. I can
remember the days that I would know
each and every merchant by their
first name. I can remember the days
when I knew each and every policeman by his first name. ... Sad to say
those days are gone. Millbrae needs
responsible leadership and people
who know what Millbrae needs. As
Mr. Picchi stated, Millbrae needs

Red light cameras


Editor,
The California Vehicle Code says
that a stop sign and a red light are
absolutes, meaning that motorists
in California are required to
absolutely stop at a stop sign and a
red light.It doesnt matter what time
of day or night it is, or, whether
there are any other vehicles at the
same intersection, all motorists are
required to stop. Motorists in
California are required to stop their
vehicles behind the limit line at
each intersection. Rolling stops, or
California stops, are illegal and
unsafe.
Mr. Alexander Xue, in his letter
Millbraes red light cameras, in
the Aug. 3 edition of the Daily
Journal, thinks its OK to roll
through stop signs and stop lights.
Mr. Xue clearly doesnt know
California law, nor is he a safe driver, if he doesnt care about the safety
of all motorists while driving on our
streets.
There is no suchstudy that says
rolling through the turn poses little risk to other users of the road.
Red light cameras are only there to
save lives and reduce accidents. It
has nothing to do with money
never has and never will. Apparently
Mr. Xue doesnt care about saving
lives. The only reason why people
complain about red light cameras is
when they are caught doing something wrong. They, like Mr. Xue, act
like spoiled babies, stomping their
feet because they are mad they got
caught. They never learn from their
mistakes and they never seem to
learn any valuable lesson.
Motorists like Mr. Xue should
remember that driving is a privilege
and not a right. He should also
remember that laws are in place to
protect the safety and well-being of
the (motoring) public.

Courage
Editor,
I would like to commend the
Republicans on their candidates profiles in courage. Other than Rand
Paul, they were obviously refraining
from any direct criticism of Mr.
Trump to his face, even pandering
by one.
As soon as they arrived at the red
state conservative forum gathering
where Mr. Trump was disinvited,
then all of a sudden they found their
intestinal fortitude and outrage and
the criticism was universal by
all.Some may say Mr. Trump is less
scary than ISIS, but this is the kind
of steely courage I am seeking in
commander in chief.

Modern look at the


First Amendment
T

wo of the most important amendments to the U.S.


Constitution are the 14th Amendment and First
Amendment. The 14th Amendment safeguards equal
protection under the law for every citizen. The First
Amendment, among other things, protects a persons right
to practice their own religion free from government interference. In recent years, the ideals behind these two amendments have become gridlocked.
In recent months, we have increasingly been confronted
with the question of whether a persons faith or religious
expression is inextricably
linked to discrimination against
another. That was the question
raised by my fellow California
Republican Party delegate last
week before the state partys
drafting committee the 60member elected body delegated
to redraft the state partys platform this year. This member was
urging the committee to consider a question that has increasingly impinged upon the moral
conscience of our nation: what
is left of the First Amendment
Jonathan Madison
right to freedom of religion?
Representing San Mateo County as an elected member of
the Drafting Committee, I was forced to grapple with this
difcult question myself. You see, I was raised to embody a
set of principles that represent my faith in God. That being
said, I am also a passionate advocate for every citizens
right to equal protection under the laws. I never could have
imagined a time in which these values would compete with
one another.
This question also resonates with my legal eld of study.
The vast concepts of the 14th Amendment equal protection
of the laws and First Amendment freedom of religious
expression began to buzz in my head vividly. Ironically,
law students are taught to think about the law in terms of
rules, not deeply rooted beliefs or emotions. Our professors
suggest that to do so would be too subjective and arbitrary
in terms of framing arguments.
Nevertheless, I am convinced that the competing rights
embedded in the 14th Amendment and the First Amendment
warrants a deviation from the cut-and-dry process of debating legal concepts. It requires a closer look at history.
One must rst beg the question of whether our Founding
Fathers anticipated a time in which ones freedom to practice their religion would be mounted against anothers equal
protection under the laws. History tells us more than anything that signicant change happens over a great deal of
time. Perhaps this is why the Founding Fathers included
language in the preamble to the Constitution addressing
the likelihood of changing times. The preamble reads: We
secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity. The language shows that the founders were wise enough
to predict changing times of this magnitude in future generations.
With that said, we cannot forget the solid foundations by
which our country was founded. World-renowned poet
Gordon B. Hinckley once famously stated: You cannot
build a great building on a weak foundation. You must have
a solid foundation if you are going to have a strong superstructure. Among other superstructures, faith has undeniably been one of the largest pillars upon which our country
was founded and preserved. Faith, in fact, has been the driving force of our nation.
Without faith, the rst militia of our once fragile 13
colonies would have never succeeded in bringing the
British superpower to its knees in the American
Revolution. Without faith, President Lincoln would never
have mustered the courage to sign the Emancipation
Proclamation which liberated slaves throughout our nation.
Faith has enabled several historic leaders to champion
the greatest demonstrations of freedom in our world. Most
importantly, faith has given these world changing leaders
and movements a light with which they could see a path to
freedom in a world of darkness. Perhaps this is what the
Apostle Paul meant in 2 Corinthians 5:7 when he said: We

Big movers
Stocks that moved substantially or traded heavily Monday on the New
York Stock Exchange and the Nasdaq Stock Market:
NYSE

NEW YORK A resurgent energy sector and another big acquisition by


Warren Buffett propelled the stock market to its best day in three months on
Monday.
Energy stocks jumped, following the
price of oil higher. Crude rebounded
after dropping to its lowest level of the
year in early trading. Industrial stocks
also climbed sharply after Buffetts
Berkshire Hathaway agreed to buy
Precision Castparts, a maker of industrial components, for $32 billion.
The pace of corporate deal making has
been surging this year as borrowing
costs have stayed low, making it easier
for companies to fund acquisitions. That
tends to push up stock prices because
buyers typically pay a premium to make
the deal attractive to shareholders.
Any time you have mergers and
acquisitions, especially of this size,
thats a good sign because corporate
America is feeling good about the economic prospects, said Peter Cardillo,
chief market economist at Rockwell
Global Capital.
The Standard & Poors 500 index rose
26.61 points, or 1.3 percent, to
2,104.18. It was the biggest gain for
the index since May 8.
The Dow Jones industrial average rose

241.79 points, or 1.4 percent, to


17,615.17. The Nasdaq composite
climbed 58.25 points, or 1.2 percent, to
5,101.80.
The gains also ended a seven-day losing streak for the Dow Jones industrial
average, its longest run of losses in four
years. Some mixed earnings reports and
the slump in oil have weighed on the
30-member index in the past three
weeks.
Some investors are also anticipating
that the Federal Reserve may raise interest rates next month. Thats unnerving
for them because rates close to zero have
been a major factor in driving a bullmarket in stocks that has lasted for more
than six years.
Precision Castparts was the biggest
gainer in the S&P 500. The stock
jumped $37.04, or 19 percent, to
$230.92. Berkshire will pay $235 per
share in cash for Precision Castparts
outstanding stock. The deal is valued at
about $37.2 billion including debt.
Energy stocks were also among the
biggest gainers as oil rose, rebounding
from heavy losses last week. The sector
jumped 3 percent as companies including Exxon Mobil and Chevron
climbed.
The price of oil posted a strong gain
after briefly dipping below its lowest
close for the year. U.S. crude climbed
$1.09 to close at $44.96 a barrel in New

York. Early Monday oil dipped a penny


below its $43.46 March 17 close, its
lowest in six years. Brent crude, a
benchmark for international oils used
by many U.S. refineries, rose $1.80 to
close at $50.41 in London.
Despite Mondays rebound, oil is still
down almost 60 percent from its peak
last year.
About 90 percent of the companies in
the S&P 500 have reported their secondquarter results, and average earnings for
companies in the index are flat for the
period. However, thats masking a big
slump in energy company earnings. If
the energy sector is excluded, profits
rose 7.7 percent, according to S&P
Capital IQ data.
Thats a good sign for some
investors.
Once you start digging into the numbers the only sector that is really messing things up is energy, said Brad
McMillan, Chief Investment Officer for
Commonwealth Financial Network.
Everything else is doing pretty well.
Twitter was another beaten-up stock
that had a good day on Monday.
The social media company got a lift
after the company signed a two-year
content and advertising deal with the
National Football League. Also, interim
CEO and co-founder Jack Dorsey
increased his stake in the embattled
social media company.

Google to be part of new holding company, Alphabet

SAN FRANCISCO One of techs


biggest names, Google, is reorganizing

The deal announced Monday to acquire

NEW YORK Gap Inc. is still struggling.
The San Francisco-based retailer issued a

The results were also dragged down by West

The earnings outlook, announced late

operates Old Navy and Banana Republic, saw
a sales shortfall in the quarter. It also posted

Ex-Panthers hurler Grotz settling into pro bullpen


By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Former Burlingame baseball standout Zac


Grotz was greeted fairly rudely by New YorkPenn League hitters.
After dazzling in his professional debut in
the Rookie-class Appalachian League, the
28th round draft pick out of Embry-Riddle
University by the Houston Astros was promoted to Low-A Tri-City. In his second outing
with the ValleyCats July 6 against the Red Sox
affiliate Lowell Spinners, Grotz got tagged for

three runs in two innings.


As the right-hander
walked off the mound after
a rocky seventh inning,
he resolved to get back on
track.
I had a bad outing
and that's not what I do,
Grotz said. So I wanted to
get back to what I do.
Zac Grotz
Since that subpar performance, Grotz has had just one other outing
go south. Otherwise, he has posted eight

shutout appearances. Over two levels of minor


league ball this season, he owns a 3-1 record
and four saves through just 13 appearances
and also boasts a 2.70 ERA while holding
opponents to a .172 batting average.
Through 3 2/3 over three outings in August,
Grotz has yet to allow a base runner, and has
held opponents hitless through his last four
appearances.
I do a little game with myself to see how
long I can go out there and throw up zeroes and
help the team get some wins as well, Grotz
said.

Seems like Grotz is in the right town to be


posting hitless outings. Last Thursday, TriCity recorded its first no-hitter in nine years
in a 5-0 win over the Aberdeen Ironbirds.
Three pitchers combined on the no-no - starting pitcher Kevin McCanna, right-hander
Ralph Garza and left-hander Zac Person.
Grotz didn't pitch in the game, and had
mixed emotions about wanting to, having not
thrown for four days.
I did and I didn't, Grotz said. I hadn't

Well, the San Francisco 49ers
knocked embattled Tom Brady and

with the latest arrest and subsequent release

Once again, the
49ers are making
headlines for all the
wrong reasons
which is par for the

six months.
I have to believe
the reaction 49ers
and NFL fans had
when they woke up
to the news that
Smith had, for the
fifth time, been
arrested for his third driving under the
influence charge.
Ahhh, maannn.
Within hours, the 49ers made the decision to cut their obviously-troubled star,
which came days after the media reported
general manager Trent Baalke was interested in re-signing Smith to a long-term deal.
Smith had matured, Baalke said. He had
turned the corner. He had changed his life.
Two days later, Smiths life came crashing down around him. It is the third DUI
charge he has faced since joining the
49ers as a rookie out of Missouri in
2011. About the only way it could have
been worse is if Smith had committed the
ultimate sin and killed somebody with
his drinking and driving. Unfortunately,
unless he gets serious help with an obvious drinking problem, that still remains
an all-to-real possibility.
And while the 49ers are being raked
over the coals for their handling of
Smiths various arrests, lets not lose the
fact that this is all Smiths fault. His and

KAZAN, Russia Katie Ledecky is ready


to enjoy a week off. Shes certainly earned it.
With five gold medals and three records at
the world swimming championships,
Ledecky stamped herself as a huge favorite
heading into next years Olympics.
She swept the 200, 400, 800 and 1,500meter freestyles in Kazan, in addition to
anchoring the victorious 4x200 free relay.
The 18-year-old American is 9-0 in finals at

two world records in 2013 at Barcelona.


After Barcelona, I set my goals for these
last couple years, and I have a little ways to

those goals, and this is a really great steppingstone toward Olympic trials.
That meet next July will decide the U.S.
team for the Rio de Janeiro Games. The 1,500
is not an Olympic event, so Ledecky may
look to add the 100 free to her busy schedule

Locals on the mend after Northwoods season


By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Injuries derailed a promising week for a


local trio as the Madison Mallards of the
Northwoods League opened postseason play
Monday.
Vince Arobio, Mikey Diekroeger and
Collin Theroux all contributed to the twotime defending Northwoods League champion Mallards 23-13 regular-season finish,
good for second place in
the South Division and a
postseason berth.
None of the San Mateo
County-native trio will
play in the postseason
though. Arobio a former Burlingame star
entering his junior season
at University of the
Mikey
Pacific chose to shut
Diekroeger
down his summer season
early due to arm fatigue.
Diekroeger a Menlo grad entering his
sophomore season at Stanford saw his
summer season end when he injured his shoulder sliding into first base on a pickoff play.
And Theroux a one-time Serra great who is
transferring to Oklahoma State after two seasons at San Joaquin Delta College suffered a
freak injury while playing basketball, colliding with another player last week resulting in
Therouxs taking eight staples to his head.

The respective injuries


ended the summer seasons
of all three. Diekroeger,
who underwent surgery on
his left shoulder last
month, endured the most
serious.
Its doing a lot better,
Diekroeger said. Its getCollin Theroux ting better.
The left-handed hitting
infielder was off to a fine start playing in his
first summer collegiate league. Starting the
season as the Mallards regular shortstop,
Diekroeger hit .308 (12 for 39) through 11
games. In his absence, the Mallards turned to
Tony Butler set to transfer from a
Wisconsin community college to the
University of Indiana in 2016 who hit
.242 through 54 games.
[Diekroeger] played well in those games,
Theroux said. It was too bad he went down.
Theroux encountered the strangest injury,
though it could have been worse, he said.
Im fine, Theroux said. I dont have a
concussion or anything. I just got eight staples in my head.
After leading all Northern California community college hitters with eight home runs
to help Delta to the state final four in the
spring, Theroux continued his power barrage
in Madison. It took him just 26 games and 86
at-bats to tie for third on the team with seven
home runs.
Cameron Frost, who also has seven homers
for the Mallards, reached the
total in 242 at-bats. Jean
Ramirez hit eight homers in
228 at-bats. Team-leader
Anthony Gonsolin hit 11
homers in 247 at-bats.
Theroux is putting his early
leave to good use though. He
is driving from California to
his new school in Oklahoma,

but is making a couple of


stops along the way.
First Theroux is paying
a visit to his sister Nicole
at Fresno State. A 2015
graduate of Hillsdale, she
will be beginning her collegiate soccer career with
the Bulldogs as a freshVince Arobio man goalkeeper this season. She did not play at
Hillsdale last season, but honed her skills
playing club soccer.
Then Theroux is swinging through
Glendale, Arizona and the Arizona League to
pay a visit to his former Serra teammate
Jordan Paroubeck. Paroubeck who was
traded by the Atlanta Braves to the Los
Angeles Dodgers July 2 hit his first home
run of the year last Monday. He is batting
.231 (9 for 39) through 10 games.
Arobio didnt suffer an injury, but said he
wanted to rest his arm after a taxing sophomore year. Between college and summer ball,
he totaled 60 1/3 innings of relief, a vast
majority of which was quality work. At
Pacific, the right-handed closer recorded
eight saves. He tabbed three more saves
through 22 games for the Mallards.
It was like 60 innings with no break,
Arobio said. I just thought maybe my arms
getting tired. Lets shut it down so I can rest
for two weeks.
Arobio also noted he wants to be fresh for
fall ball to make a good impression on new
Pacific manager Mike Neu, who takes over for
the Tigers after serving as the pitching coach
at Cal since 2012. Neu will replace Ed
Sprague, who resigned following the 2015
season after 11 years at the helm.
Especially with the new coach they
know what I can do, but I dont want to have
to ask for time off, Arobio said.

Port St. Lucie

PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. New York Mets


star David Wright got a hit and scored a run
Monday night in his first minor league rehabilitation game since going on the disabled
list in mid-April.
The 32-year-old third baseman went 1 for 3
and drew a walk as the designated hitter for Class A
St. Lucie. He hadnt
played since being diagnosed with spinal stenosis, a narrowing of the
spinal column.
Wright ran from first to
third on a single and
David Wright scored on a groundout. His
outs were routine a fly
to center and a pop to second in an 8-4 loss
to Fort Myers in the Florida State League.
Physically, I felt pretty good, Wright
said. Now its just getting my timing and
going out to play the field.
Wright plans to play third base for five
innings on Tuesday for St. Lucie. A rest day
is planned for Wednesday.
The Mets captain hasnt played in the
majors since getting two hits against
Philadelphia on April 14.
Wright was originally put on the disabled
list with a strained right hamstring. But
before he could come back, he was diagnosed with the back issue.
This was his first minor league game since
2011, when he had a six-game, 27 at-bat
rehab stint with St. Lucie.
In his absence, the Mets have used several third basemen, including Eric Campbell,

and Juan Uribe.

class Greenville. Facing a lot of younger


competition, the 22-year-old allowed
just one hit through five shutout innings
over three outings before being promoted.
It was kind of easy because it's a lot of
younger guys so they're not used to us
guys who are that accurate, Grotz said.
They're just used to guys who can throw
as hard as they can.
Now with Tri-City, Grotz has joined a
blue-collar pitching staff. The highest
drafted pitcher on the ValleyCats' roster
is Trent Thornton, this year's fifth-round
pick out of UNC-Chapel Hill.
Meanwhile, they are facing some bluechip talent. Tuesday night, in going up

against the Spinners, the ValleyCats


faced the 2015 Golden Spikes winner in
Boston Red Sox first-round draft out
pick Andrew Benintendi.
The place I'm at now is more relevant
for me, Grotz said. It's crazy because
our highest draft pick here is probably a
fourth rounder and we're going
against a lot of first-round guys.
Grotz said he expects to be used exclusively in relief going forward. That's
fine by him. He is currently tied with
Jacob Dorris for the team lead with three
saves. Two other pitchers on staff have
two apiece.

Some U.S. rowers fall ill at 2016 Olympics test event


By Stephen Wade
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

RIO DE JANEIRO Thirteen rowers on the


40-member U.S. team came down with stomach illness at the World Junior Rowing
Championships a trial run for next summers Olympics and the team doctor said
she suspected it was due to pollution in the
lake where the competition took place.
The event took place amid rising concerns
about the water quality at venues for the Rio de
Janeiro Olympics, now less than a year away.
The Americans were by far the hardest hit at
the regatta that concluded over the weekend,
with reports of vomiting and diarrhea. Other
teams in the competition reported some illnesses, according to World Rowing, the
sports governing body, but those were about
as expected at an event that featured more
than 500 young rowers.
On July 30, The Associated Press published
an independent analysis of water quality that
showed high levels of viruses and, in some
cases, bacteria from human sewage in all of
Rios Olympic and Paralympic water venues,
including the Rodrigo de Freitas Lagoon,
where the rowing competition took place.
U.S. coach Susan Francia, a two-time
Olympic gold-medal rower, said in an interview with the AP that 13 athletes and four
staff members including herself suffered
various gastrointestinal symptoms during
the teams two weeks of training in Rio.
Dr. Kathryn Ackerman, the U.S. team
physician, said athletes from several other
countries stayed in the same hotel as the
Americans, but did not seem to get as sick as
her rowers.
I dont know if it was the water bottles in
the boats, or hygiene precautions that some
athletes are really good about and others
werent, she said.
Officials did not rule out that the Americans
could have gotten ill from food or drinking
water.

REUTERS FILE PHOTO

Rowing athletes attend a training session at the World Rowing Junior Championships last
Wednesday in Rodrigo de Freitas Lagoon in Rio de Janeiro.
Were not really sure. My personal feeling
is, I think its from the lake, Ackerman said.
Francia said she lacked the data and information to directly blame the illness on the venue,
but added: It just doesnt seem normal.
She warned athletes coming for the
Olympics that you should know when youre
coming next year that you have to be smart
about how you are preparing.
Francia said the U.S. team had taken precautions about competing in the polluted lake
beneath Rios picturesque Christ the
Redeemer statue, but maybe we were not as
strict in enforcing them as we should have
been from the beginning.
As soon as kids started going down, we
were bleaching oar handles, we were immediately washing hands after coming off the
water, she said. Other countries didnt allow
water bottles at all. Other countries had water
bottles in zip-locked bags.
US Rowing, which oversees the sport in

the United States, said it is investigating


what sickened the athletes, who range in age
from 16-19. None are likely to be Olympians
next year.
Rowing officials will debrief the athletes
when they return to the U.S., likely through
the rest of the week. They will talk to the athletes, review protocols for cleanliness.
Ackerman said she became worried when
one U.S. boat tipped over in the lake,
although the athlete who got thrown into the
water was not among those who became ill.
Obviously we were all concerned because
we know the waters polluted, she added.
A spokesman for the Rio organizing committee on Monday attributed American team
illnesses to class travel symptoms and said
an event doctor treated eight Americans, three
Britons and three Australians for symptoms

including diarrhea.
The Americans experience is almost certain to raise more concerns for the Olympics.
About 10,500 athletes will attend the
Summer Games, and 1,400 will participate in
rowing, sailing, triathlon, canoeing and distance swimming in the waters around Rio.
You dont want to see athletes in the boatpark vomiting, Francia said, recounting that
the competitor she saw get sick was not an
American. One of the U.S. rowers did faint in
a dining area, she added.
The AP analysis of water began in March and
was performed by noted Brazilian virologist
Fernando Spilki, coordinator of the environmental quality program at Feevale University
in southern Brazil. It showed dangerously high
levels of viruses from sewage in all Olympic
venues. The samples were checked for three
types of human adenovirus, as well as
rotavirus, enterovirus and fecal coliforms.
These are viruses that are known to cause
digestive and respiratory illnesses, including
explosive diarrhea and vomiting, but can also
in rarer cases lead to more serious heart, brain
and other diseases, such as hepatitis A.
The AP testing, which will continue
through the Olympics, also checked for bacterial fecal coliforms which at times during
the study peaked at the Olympic lake to 10
times the acceptable limit for secondary contact per Brazilian regulations.
In two separate emailed statements following the AP study, the World Health
Organization affirmed it was advising the
International Olympic Committee to widen
the scientific base of indicators to include
viruses. The WHO underscored that its actually up to the local Olympic organizing committee in Rio to order that viral testing be done.
However, in an emailed statement Monday,
the organization reversed course and said that
WHO has not and will not issue an official
recommendation on viral testing.

some men in this sport continuing to


swim that fast, said Frank Busch, U.S.
national team director. Shes doing
things that are unprecedented in our
sport.
Such utter domination has sent expectations soaring for the recent high
school graduate from suburban
Washington, D.C., who has yet to even
get a drivers license. Ledecky remains
oblivious to it all.
Her support system was in Kazan,
with her parents, brother and uncle
cheering in the stands.
At the daily U.S. womens team meeting, coaches congratulated anyone who
swam a personal-best time and the team
showered that person with applause.
Ledecky received the most cheers; of
course, her best times just happened to
be jaw-dropping world records.
Whenever she swims she just has this
ability to lift the entire team spirit, said
Missy Franklin, Ledeckys teammate
who won five medals in Kazan. Thats
so, so special. Its just been amazing
watching her this whole time and I think
all of us know theres only brighter
things to come in her future.
A typical training day for Ledecky
involves morning and afternoon practices

Nick Symmons
T h e
defending world runner-up
at 800 meters refused to
sign a contract that USA
Track and Field requires all
athletes to sign to be
named to the team. When
the official list came out

Monday, Symmonds wasnt on it despite his win at


U. S. championships in
June.
For Symmonds, the issue
is Nikes standing as
USATFs official uniform
sponsor. Anyone going to
China later this month on
the U.S. team is required to
wear Nike gear at team
functions. Symmonds is
sponsored by a rival shoe
company, Brooks, and
wanted it clearly spelled
out what constitutes a team
function.
On his Twitter account,
Symmonds recently posted: Proud to have stood
my ground and fought
another battle for athletes
rights.

his alone. There are various ways this
could have been avoided and everyone
has heard them ad infinitum: call a cab,
call Uber, hire a driver.
He didnt and now hes paying the
price by losing his job.
But in a case like this, where it is
obvious someone needs serious help to
literally save a persons life, what role
does any employer including the
NFL have in helping someone with
an obvious problem? Seems to me, the
worst thing the 49ers or any other
employer could do would be to cut a
man loose as he approaches the depths
of despair. It would seem now is the
most critical time a person like Smith
would need the support of an employer.
San Francisco head coach Jim
Tomsula said all the right things at the
press conference, indicating the organization would help Smith through his
tribulations. But it makes me wonder

three days a week. She mixes in dry land


training that focuses on strength, flexibility and injury prevention three times a
week. She usually swims up to 6,000
meters in the morning. A hard training
session would add another 2,000 meters.
Gemmell has instilled in Ledecky the
belief that relaxed swimming results in
optimal performances. In the water, she
focuses on keeping her stroke, rhythm
and tempo the same throughout the
longer races.
Shes driven to get better, shes not
afraid to challenge herself, Gemmell
said. Shes not afraid of failure, but failure is not an option. Thats sort of a
combination shes put together to work
pretty well for her.
She viewed the 200 as a challenge, so
the 100 might be even more enticing.
Rarely does a distance swimmer in their
prime dip into the sprint ranks. Ledecky
practices other strokes in training, but
the competition is so strong in those
events that she has no plans to swim
anything but freestyle for now.
Theres still a lot of fast swimmers in
that 200 free, she said. I know I have
my work cut for me.
Ledecky is taking a cache of gold out
of Russia, but leaving money behind.
Her medals and world records were worth
a total of $175,000 from FINA, the
sports world governing body. However,
she couldnt accept any of it because she
plans to remain an amateur and compete
for Stanford starting in the fall of 2016.
what role the 49ers had in Smiths
recovery in the past? Following his second DUI arrest in 2013, he sat out five
weeks as he went through the rehabilitation process and then was suspended for
the first nine games last year as punishment.
Obviously those five weeks did no
good for Smith. But did the 49ers, as an
organization, have a support system in
place? Does the NFL, in general, have
any guidelines when it comes to getting
the players help when there is substance
abuse involved?
What about Smiths friends, his
teammates? Were they keeping an eye
on Smith, reminding him of his past
troubles and helping him stay out of
trouble?
These are the questions that need to
be asked. Was this a breakdown in various systems built to give the necessary
support to a person who needed them
most or is this simply a case of an alcoholic bottoming out, that no one saw
coming?
These are only questions Smith himself can answer. But the first question
Smith needs to ask himself is: do I want

Pac-12 loaded with talent and on the rise nationally


By Greg Beacham
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LOS ANGELES When Gary Andersen left


Big Ten powerhouse Wisconsin for Oregon
State and the Pac-12 last December, the veteran coach made a move that would have been
unthinkable or at least a bit illogical
just a few seasons ago.
Andersen knew exactly where he was going
and what he was doing.
Its not because the Big Ten is declining, he
said. The Pac-12 is on the rise, and it just
might be the peak of college football this fall.
I absolutely have felt a huge swing in the
last two years, and thats me being in the
Midwest for two years, that the Pac-12 has
gained a ton of respect nationally, said
Andersen, the leagues only new coach this
year. The Pac-12 has gotten better and better and better.
Indeed, the West Coasts premier conference
is stacked with elite talent in wealthy programs committed to contending for national
championships as it celebrates the 100-year
anniversary of its official formation this fall.
Andersen couldnt resist the chance to move

back out West, even though hell have to compete with the archrival Oregon Ducks, who
reached the national title game last season
behind Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback
Marcus Mariota.
But almost nobody gets an easy ride these
days in the Pac-12, which has a wealth of
amazing players and no clear-cut
title favorite. While comparisons among leagues are
inexact at best, every
coach is publicly confident the Pac-12 is the
equal of the SEC and anybody else.
A lot of the talent thats been
out West that maybe had left the western part of the country, going somewhere
else, is now staying out here, Arizona
coach Rich Rodriguez said. Were one of
them, but the other schools in our division
and in our league are doing it. So I think the
Pac-12 South is probably going to be better
this year than its ever been. The Pac-12
will be better than its ever been, and I think
its going to stay that way into the future.

Fear the south


The Pac-12 South might be the most
loaded division in college football, with
Southern California, UCLA, Arizona State,
Utah and defending champion Arizona all
harboring title contention hopes and
College Football Playoff dreams.
USC is favored in its first year
free of NCAA sanctions,
but the Trojans must contend with the crosstown
Bruins, who have beaten them three straight
times, along with two
loaded rivals from the Grand
Canyon State and the Utes, who
have 18 returning starters.

After Mariota
Oregon has its usual stacked roster, but a big
hole in the middle after falling short in the
title game against Ohio State. Coach Mark
Helfrich wants his Ducks to simultaneously
learn from and flush the end of (last season).
Mariotas successor could be Eastern
Washington transfer Vernon Adams, but he

cant officially join the team until later this


week. The Ducks have work to do, but theyve
handled it before.

So much speed
The Pac-12 has a reputation for highoctane, trailblazing offensive football, and
thats likely to continue this year. The biggest
difference between this league and the rest,
according to coaches, is the speed. This seasons top burners include USC two-way star
Adoree Jackson, Stanford receiver Isaiah
Brandt-Sims, Cal running back Khalfani
Muhammad, Oregon receiver Devon Allen and
Arizona receiver Tyrell Johnson. This league
has what we like to call juice, Andersen said.
It is fast. There are a lot of guys that make
one mistake, and youre going to pay the
price quickly.

New Champ?
For all of its parity and league-wide growth,
the Pac-12 has had only two champions since
2008. Oregon won its fourth title in six years

Sports brief
Los Angeles proposes $4.1B
budget if Olympic candidate
LOS ANGELES If the city of
Los Angeles becomes the U.S.
candidate for the 2024 Olympics
after Bostons recent drop from
contention, the organizers proposed budget for the Summer
Games would be $4.1 billion plus
a $400 million contingency, a
senior adviser to Mayor Eric
Garcetti said Monday.
The sum includes $200 million
to cover city expenses, Jeff
Millman said.
The citys projection anticipates revenues far in excess of
$4. 5 billion and a significant
profit, Millman said.
The budget would not come from
city funding, but would instead
come to the Los Angeles organizing committee from such sources
as broadcast revenue, sponsorships and tickets.

PAC-12

last fall, ending the two-year reign
of Stanford, which slipped to 8-5
last season. USC hasnt won the
league since Pete Carrolls penultimate season, while half of the conferences 12 schools havent even
shared the title in the 21st century.

Leachs time?
Mike Leach has won 12 games in
his first three seasons at
Washington State, and some
observers see little reason to expect
a breakthrough this fall on the
Palouse. Yet the famously unconventional coach is increasingly
confident about the future after the
school opened its 75,000-squarefoot Cougar Football Complex in
June. Leachs charisma and smarts
make him an important national
figure, but hes eager to back up that
reputation.

Continued from page 14
Except for the exclusion of
Symmonds, there were no real surprises. There are five defending
world champions on the U.S. squad,
including
Ashton
Eaton
(decathlon), LaShawn Merritt (400
meters), David Oliver (hurdles),
Brittney Reese (long jump) and
Brianna Rollins (hurdles). Big
names such as Justin Gatlin, Tyson
Gay and Allyson Felix are also on
the team.
Taking the place of Symmonds in
the 800 is Clayton Murphy, who
finished fourth at nationals. The
top three in each event earn a spot
to worlds.
The 31-year-old Symmonds is
known for taking a stance on social
and business issues that surround
what he believes is a widely corrupt
world of track and field. He indicated
he couldnt sit idly by on this topic,
believing that giving Nike so much
power on what athletes can and cant
wear at events such as worlds and the
Olympics may hinder sponsorship
deals down the road.
We have to wear Team USA kit at
all official Team USA functions,
which is fine. Im fine with it,
Symmonds said in a phone conversation Sunday night. The problem
is they never define what a Team
USA function is. They do that
almost on purpose so they can call
anything a Team USA function.
USATF issued a statement

HAROLD
Continued from page 11
the position that has been bolstered
by Harold can help compensate for
the loss of Smiths talent, which
produced 42 sacks in his first 43
games.
A guy like Aldon, its not a guy
that you just can replace, Mangini
said. Hes got a unique skill set.
But one of the things we focus on
defensively is building flexibility
in terms of what we can play and
whos going to play there.

decision not to represent the United
States at the IAAF World
Championships. The statement of
conditions is part of USATFs governance documents, and its requirements are common in professional,
Olympic and National Team sports,
both domestically and internationally.
We look forward to continuing
to expand our programs for athletes, and we hope to see Nick on
future National Teams.
Symmonds was a Nike-sponsored
athlete for around seven years
before switching over to Brooks on
Jan. 1, 2014. He did so because, I
needed a company that could work
with me and match my personality a
little bit better, Symmonds said.
He won the 800 at the national
championships in June, finishing
in a time of 1 minute, 44.53 seconds. Symonds decided to skip
lucrative competitions in Europe to
concentrate on his training in
Seattle, in order to be in prime
shape for Beijing. He felt like he
was possibly even in better condition than when he earned silver at
the 2013 world championships in
Moscow.
I want to apologize to the fans
who want to see me run,
Symmonds said. I just feel that I
cant go out there and put on that
Team USA jersey and feel good
about it, while all the athletes are

threatened by USATF at the same
time.

When I was younger, I could ignore

Diet Pepsi removes


aspartame, but will
customers return?
By Candice Choi
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK A revamped Diet


Pepsi without aspartame is popping up on store shelves. So will
people start flocking back to the
soda?
PepsiCo says its new Diet
Pepsi should be available nationally this week. In response to
customer feedback, the company
said earlier this year that it would
replace the aspartame in the
drink with another artificial
sweetener that has less baggage.
The rollout will test the theory
that the sweetener is to blame for
fleeing customers, or if other
issues might be at play. Other
diet sodas that still have aspartame include Diet Coke, Diet Dr
Pepper and Fanta Zero.
Sales of traditional diet sodas
have been falling. Industry executives blaming the freefall on
unfounded concerns people have

about aspartame. Two years ago,


Coca-Cola even tested ads in
select newspapers defending the
safety of the sweetener.
Its the No. 1 thing that our
customers have been calling
about, said Seth Kaufman, a senior vice president at PepsiCo.
At least in the short term, Diet
Pepsi sales are likely to see bump
from the marketing push around
the new formula, which will
include in-store sampling and
discounting in coming weeks.
In terms of taste, Kaufman said
its not identical but that the
drink should still be familiar to
fans of Diet Pepsi.
Its not the first attempt by
PepsiCo Inc. to lift flagging
sales of Diet Pepsi. In 2012, the
company tried improving the
drink by combining aspartame
with acesulfame potassium, often
called ace-K, another artificial
sweetener that helps prevent the
taste from degrading over time.

In response to customer feedback, PepsiCo said earlier this year that it would replace the aspartame in the drink
with another artificial sweetener that has less baggage.
The latest version of Diet Pepsi
will also have ace-K in addition
to sucralose, best known by the
brand name Splenda.
Cans and bottles of the new
Diet Pepsi have been making

Sequoia Blodgett, a Draper University graduate now serving as the schools entrepreneur
in residence, recalled her time competing for
funding last year and how she uses her experience to enhance the students time on the
show.
Whats interesting is when I was going
through the program, I was like this is a reality show. Why has no one picked this up? Its
like Real World meets Survivor meets
Apprentice. Its all these reality shows combined and its really interesting and youll see
as the season unfolds, why I say that,
Blodgett said.
Housed in the old Benjamin Franklin Hotel
on Third Avenue in downtown San Mateo,
Tang and Blodgett said viewers across the
country will get a unique look into the pas-

sion driving Silicon Valley and the entrepreneurial spirit.


Unless youre in the tech bubble, and I
think thats why this show is going to put
a magnifying glass on Silicon Valley, you
really dont know whats happening. And
its crazy because theres so much innovation thats happening here, Blodgett said.
Its very interesting because you dont
necessarily know unless youre immersed
in it, and once you see that and people get
the bigger picture as to how it will change
the world, I think people will be very much
glued to the TV.
With nearly 450 students from across the
globe having attended in the three years since
the school was founded, graduates have raised
nearly $22 million in funding from a variety
of angel investors and even Draper who
guarantees funding to the winner of the Pitch

Day competition, Tang said.


While audiences will have to tune in to see
whose ideas are chosen supreme, and may
even witness some university romance, Tang
said students have more than business proposals at stake.
In that short seven weeks, I think we are
dealing with people learning and transforming and youll find that not everyone leaves
Draper University with a business. Because
were more than just a business incubator,
were here to truly promote the entrepreneurial spirit, Tang said. Its really a way of
looking at your career, looking at your life
and what kind of person you want to be. So
you can expect to see some very transformative character building in the show.

Air controller study shows chronic fatigue


By Joan Lowy
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Air traffic controllers work schedules often lead to


chronic fatigue, making them less
alert and endangering the safety of the
national air traffic system, according
to a study the government has kept
secret for nearly four years.
Federal Aviation Administration
officials have declined to furnish a
copy of the report despite repeated
requests and a Freedom of Information
Act request by the Associated Press.
However, the AP was able to obtain a
draft of the final report dated Dec. 1,
2011.
The impetus for the study was a recommendation by the National
Transportation Safety Board to the
FAA and the National Air Traffic
Controllers Association to revise controller schedules to provide rest periods that are long enough to obtain
sufficient restorative sleep.
The study found that nearly 2 in 10
controllers had committed significant
errors in the previous year such as
bringing planes too close together
and over half attributed the errors to
fatigue. A third of controllers said they
perceived fatigue to be a high or
extreme safety risk. Greater than 6
in 10 controllers indicated that in the
previous year they had fallen asleep or
experienced a lapse of attention while
driving to or from midnight shifts,
which typically begin about 10 p.m.
and end around 6 a.m.
Overall, controllers reported they
were averaging 5.8 hours of sleep per
day over the course of a work week.
They averaged only 3.25 hours before
some shifts.
The most tiring schedules required
controllers to work five straight midnight shifts, or to work six days a
week several weeks in a row, often
with at least one midnight shift per
week. The human bodys circadian
rhythms make sleeping during daylight hours before a midnight shift
especially difficult.

The study is composed of a survey of


3,268 controllers about their work
schedules and sleep habits, and a field
study that monitored the sleep and the
mental alertness of more than 200
controllers at 30 air traffic facilities.
NASA produced the study at the
FAAs request.
J. D.
Harrington,
a
NASA
spokesman, also declined to release
the study, saying in an email that since
the FAA requested it, they own the
rights to decide its release. NASA
gave the scientists who conducted the
study an award for the projects excellence in 2013.
In the field study, researchers concentrated on controllers who worked a
schedule known as the rattler in
which controllers squeeze five eighthour shifts into four 24-hour periods
by cutting the turnaround time between
shifts to as little as eight hours. Some
controllers like the schedule because it
gives them a 3-day weekend.
Controllers participating in the
study wore a wrist device that recorded
when they were asleep. They also kept
logs of their sleep, and were administered alertness tests several times per
work shift.
Schedules worked by 76 percent of
controllers in the field study led to
chronic fatigue, creating pressure to
fall asleep. Even with 8 to 10 hours of
recovery sleep, alertness may not
recover to the full rested baseline
level, but may be reset at a lower level
of function, the report said.
Chronic fatigue may be considered
to pose a significant risk to controller
alertness, and hence to the safety of
the ATC (air traffic control) system,
the study concluded, especially when
combined with little stimulation during periods of low air traffic and the
human bodys natural pressure to sleep
during certain times of the day.
The 270-page study makes 17 recommendations to the FAA, including
that the agency discontinue mandatory
six-day schedules as soon as possible. At the time, about 4 percent of
controllers were being assigned a six-

day constant schedule, the study said,
but the share of controllers who had
actually worked a six-day schedule in
their previous work week was 15 percent.
More than 30 percent of controllers
who worked the six-day schedules said
they had committed a significant error
in the previous year. Three years later,
controllers at several air traffic facilities told the AP that six-day work
weeks are still common.
FAA officials didnt reply to questions from the AP about steps the
agency has taken to reduce controller
fatigue and the prevalence of six-day
work weeks.
FAA officials also refused to share
the report with researchers from the
National Academies, which advises
Congress on science issues.

EVICTED
Continued from page 1
A new model home, with a one-car
garage, has been erected on the property
as many of the older homes are being
dismantled and removed from the property.
Amenities such as the club house and
swimming pool are currently closed and
the dumpsters on the property are filled
with debris from the homes being dismantled.
Some tenants have been told they can
reapply to live in the park after the new
homes are erected.
The asking price will allegedly range
from $2,500 to $4,000 a month, about
double what current tenants are being
charged.
The park is subject to a rent stabilization ordinance crafted in 1991, but the
tenants who live there now are not sure
whether it actually protects them.
Many of the tenants showed up to the
Pacifica City Council meeting Monday,
Aug. 10, to share their stories.
Pacifica Vice Mayor Sue Digre said the
tenants are under extreme stress from
the eviction notices.
We all know that there are not 22
housing units that are available for
them, not only in this city, but on this
side of the Bay, Digre said about those
who have already received the termination of tenancy notices.
Many of the mobile home parks

of San Mateo, are facing a real opportunity at this time with all of the economic growth and the changes that are happening in the Bay Area. Theres a lot of
challenges that come with that, but
theres also opportunities. So the city is
trying to embrace those opportunities
and part of that is for the downtown to
raise its profile and get a more recognizable identity out there in our own city
and beyond, said DSMA Executive
Director Ann Fienman. To have this
new, recognizable and iconic design, we
think is really a valuable step forward
for us.
Schwab said he too grew up in a small
town and working with the DSMA on
the project was a pleasure. Taking inspiration from the surrounding architecture
and nature, Schwab said he hopes the
image is one the city can be proud of for
years to come.
Im from a small town, so it was
very comfortable, I felt like I understood the project and I really kind of
fell in love with San Mateo, which I
didnt know that much about,
Schwab said. It felt like I was work-

als with disabilities.


How can I stand by silently? I cannot. And I have no doubt that Pacificans
will rally to help. This must qualify as
an inhumane situation. There are veterans among these residents. All stepped
forward to risk harms way for the dignity of human beings. The rest of us can
step forward to claim that dignity for our
fellow residents, Digre wrote in an
email.
Some of the tenants have met with
housing advocates including officials
with the Housing Leadership Council
and Legal Aid Society of San Mateo
County.
The tenants are not sure yet what their
legal avenues are yet, said tenant Mike
Doeltz, who has lived there three years.
Another tenant, 69-year-old Odile
Renery, just lost her husband and is living off of his Social Security benefits.
She moved in her sister and brother inlaw to help survive.
Renery, although she hasnt been
evicted yet, has no idea where she will
live if she does get the notice. Most of
her income is going toward paying the
rent, she said.
There are no comparable rents to
what we pay anywhere, said resident
Thomas Erpelding.
Barbara Garrett pays $1,750 a month
to rent her trailer. Shes had the same
rent for five years and makes a decent
wage but is deciding now whether to flee
the area altogether due to the housing
crisis.
The average rent for a one-bedroom
apartment in the county is now $2,516,

a 50.2 percent increase in four years,


according to a housing indicators report
released in July by the countys Housing
Authority.
We make a good living but wont be
able to afford to live here if the rent doubles, said Lisa Sanchez, who has lived
at the park for three years. Most of us
will have to leave but we dont have the
money to leave.
The owners previously applied to
raise the rents for the parks 15 homeowners by up to 170 percent to pay for
needed repairs such as reinforcing the
seawall. The park is right on the coast
with steep cliffs leading to the ocean
below.
They were denied the increase, however.
The rent control ordinance for the
mobile home park limits any increases
to 75 percent of the Consumer Price
Index. The Legal Aid Society represented the tenants and will likely represent
some of the current tenants if the owners
seek a court order to have them removed.
From the coast to Redwood City, San
Mateo and San Carlos, rents have been
climbing through the roof.
Our housing crisis has reached historic proportions where we are losing
the basic building blocks of our community. A determined effort is needed by all
of our cities to ensure we preserve the
housing thats affordable to average
people today and create more for those
who join our communities in the future,
Josh Hugg, program manager at the
Housing Leadership Council of San
Mateo County, wrote in an email.

ing for my own hometown.


Ryen Motzek, vice president of the
DSMA Board of Directors and owner of
Atlas skate shop, helped commission
Schwab who he calls the Bay Areas
Andy Warhol.
Hes a Bay Area icon and I think of
San Mateo as a very important city in
the Bay Area. So why not have Michael
do the work? It seemed like the right
fit, Motzek said.
While the DSMA has had its fair share
of challenges after its former executive
director was caught embezzling from the
organization, officials are hopeful this
rebranding campaign will set the stage
to continue promoting a prospering and
vibrant downtown.
Its a new fresh start, I think out of
any time, nows the opportunity for San
Mateo to shine, Motzek said.
San Mateo like many others along the
Peninsula, is faced with challenges and
efforts to prepare for the future are underway as part of the citys update of the
Downtown Area Plan. Fienman said the
DSMA is working in tandem with the
city to ensure the business community
is adequately represented while brainstorming how to utilize downtown to
address a lack of affordable housing,
population increases and transportation
issues.

Downtown gives us a vehicle for


addressing some of that. The DSMA is
going to be working closely with the
city as theyre embarking in the downtown planning process to really take
advantage of the assets that we have
downtown and how to leverage those
going forward to manage and absorb
some of the growth thats coming here,
while still maintaining the overall quality of life. So we dont have just haphazard development, you have a plan,
Fienman said.
Assistant City Manager Matt
Bronson agreed, noting the DSMA has
been heavily involved in events like the
Future Forum Series which gathered
members of the community to discuss a
range of issues like parking, transit-oriented development, creating gathering
spaces and more.
The city has an excellent relationship with the DSMA; they are our true
partners in having a better downtown
community, Bronson said. The
rebranding is important because it helps
to reposition the DSMA and more
importantly downtown San Mateo, as a
very vibrant, modern, yet classic destination.
