Top state educator recognizes local school

State superintendent touts Roosevelt elementary as model for excellence
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
State Superintendent Tom Torlakson

swung by Redwood City to honor the
success of a local elementary school
he believes could be a model throughout California for educating disadvantaged communities.
The states top education official
spoke Monday, Sept. 12, to students, teachers, administrators and
parents at Roosevelt Elementary
School during a ceremony recognizing the school recently winning an
academic excellence award.

The California Department of
Education
named
Roosevelt
Elementary School a Gold Ribbon
Schools award winner, as a testament
to the schools ability to improve its
academic performance.
Torlakson said he believed Principal
Patricia Girardi has done an exemplary
job of bettering the educational environment at the campus serving a
majority of Latino students.
Your school has turned around dramatically, said Torlakson, to a round
of applause from an auditorium full of
middle schoolers.
Before the event, Torlakson toured
the campus and classrooms with
Girardi and others to examine the keys
to success for improving the schools
performance.
An enhanced focus toward hands-on
learning opportunities was integral in
offering lessons in a fashion which
resonated with students who may otherwise struggle with a traditional curriculum, said Torlakson.

Workers at the Shoreway Environmental Center in San Carlos clean up after a four-alarm fire last Wednesday. A second,
smaller fire hit the facility Sunday night.
Second fire hits recycling plant
A Washington, D.C.-based nonprofit has come under fire

in California for sending out mailings to millions of voters
that indicate they may not be registered to vote.
The Voter Participation Center sent out 4.6 million letters to state residents, some who are actually already registered to vote at the address and others that are addressed to
non-existent residents or to variations of names associated
with the residence, according to Dean Logan, president of
the California Association of Clerks and Election Officials.
Registrars across the state have been inundated by calls
from residents concerned that they are not registered to vote

Damage insignificant but damage from last weeks four-alarm fire is extensive
By Bill Silverfarb
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
A second fire erupted at the Shoreway

Environmental Center in San Carlos
Sunday night just five days after a fouralarm fire caused extensive damage to
the recycling facility.
Sunday nights fire, however, was
quickly extinguished and caused no
significant damage, said Dwight
Herring, general manager of South Bay
Recycling.
Workers used a loader and pushed
smoldering material outside of the
facility at 222 Shoreway Road where
firefighters hosed it down until it went

out, Herring said.
The fire was reported at about 11:35
p.m. Sunday.
The recycling center, however, has
still not recovered from Wednesday
nights fire as workers were busy
Monday cleaning up extensive water
and smoke damage.
Wednesdays fire started at 8:45 p.m.
in a section of the facility that sorts
out newspaper from cardboard. It
caused extensive damage to the facilitys conveyance system that could
take up to six months to fix, Herring
said.
Our guys made every effort to extinguish it but there was too much smoke
and too much fire so we evacuated the
building, he said.
The fire grew quickly, he said.
It took 79 firefighters and 30 pieces
of equipment about three hours to
knock down the fire.
The facilitys sprinkler system kept
the fire contained to the area where it
started.
The fire started on the facilitys residential line and is shut down for now.

Two race for South City school board

By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Completing a school building plan with

limited resources available under an overspent construction bond remains a primary focus for the two candidates seeking
election to the South San Francisco
Unified School District Board of Trustees.
Appointed incumbent John Baker and
newcomer Scott Grindy entered the race for
a two-year seat on the five-member board,
filling the void left by former trustee Rick
Ochsenhirt, who died last year. Appointed
incumbent Daina Lujan, who filled the seat
left vacant when former trustee Maurice
Goodman was elected last year to the San
Mateo County Community College
District Board of Trustees, and Patricia
Murray will run unopposed to fill two
other open four-year seats left on the
South San Francisco school board.
Incumbent Judy Bush is not seeking reelection.
Baker, who has two children in the district, said if elected his focuses will
include enhancing special education services, improving the districts academic
reputation and assuring modern school
facilities are available to all students.
I want to show that public school is not
a second alternative, but it is the first
option, he said.
Grindy, whose wife works in the district,
said he is running on a platform of fiscal
accountability.
Im interested in having the financial
backing, making sure funding is handled
correctly and that there is transparency,
said Grindy.
Financial health has been a primary
focus for South San Francisco school officials since an independent audit showed
last year the districts Measure J construction bond fund was overdrawn by roughly
$11 million. Officials scrambled to backfill the void with money from the general
fund, but two school campuses remain
under construction after years of work and
no game plan has been devised for completing the final phase of promised renovation work at by Los Cerritos, Sunshine
Gardens and Martin elementary schools.
The previous bond director, superintendent and building company initially
responsible for overseeing the Measure J
construction work have all since left the
district, and officials are committed to
moving ahead with the work promised to
John Baker
voters, said Baker.

He acknowledged the
optics of the botched
bond are made worse
because it could appear
the underprivileged communities served by the
three
elementary
schools awaiting the
final phase of construction are not a priority
for officials.
It a real bad image to our community
saying these schools, all on the east side
of town, arent prioritized as the west side
schools were, he said.
Going forward, trustees will need to pay
closer attention to change orders submitted by builders for campus renovation
work to assure the bond funds are allocated
appropriately, said Baker.
Grindy, who has worked in vocational
education and managed facilities for a
community college system, said he has the
background to accurately track the money
paid to builders.
Somebody has to have their eyes on
every project with a magnifying glass,
he said.
For his part, Grindy said he deeply concerned the bond fund was overspent by
such a substantial margin.
They lost roughly $11 million in the
overrun, he said. That amount of money
blows my mind, for lack of a better way of
putting it. That amount could rebuild a better portion of the school, and that concerns me.
He said he has seen the residual impacts
of the school districts fiscal mismanagement spill over into the classroom, as
money from the general fund is being
diverted from educational services to the
construction fund.
Grindy resigned his from post with the
San Mateo County Harbor District as harbormaster last year. He has since filed a
harassment claim against his former
employer, alleging emotional distress
caused by one of the boards commissioners.
Baker, who works in improving broadband infrastructure for rural communities
in California, said he believes many concerns for district teachers would be
addressed by offering them pay competitive with other local districts and modern
amenities at each campus.
Such an effort could also help the district
work toward closing the

achievement
gap
between white students
and communities of
color.
We need to make sure
those students have the
same opportunities, he
said.
He also encouraged
Scott Grindy
the district to consider
innovative ways to improve opportunities
for students enrolled in special education
programs as a means of offering an equitable education.
Allowing general education students to
share classrooms with those from special
education could be beneficial, as some
may gain an opportunity for age-appropriate interaction with peers and others could
develop a greater sense of empathy, said
Baker.
Grindy said he would like the district to
preserve an opportunity to offer vocational education, amidst the focus on enhancing science, math, engineering and technology curriculum.
We need more tradespeople, he said.
Look at all the development in South San
Francisco. Who is building that? Those
skills are needed. And weve lost that in
the schools.
In all, Grindy said his commitment to
improving education in the local school
district will remain regardless of the elections outcome.
I may win or I may not win, but Im not
going to give up on the kids, he said.
While Baker said he would like an
opportunity to continue the good work the
board has accomplished since he was
appointed.
We need experienced people on the
board and I think I can offer that, he said.

Clinton feels good, says she didnt pass out

By Lisa Lerer
WHITE PLAINS, N.Y. Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton said

Monday that shes feeling better since
falling ill at a 9/11 memorial ceremony, but
she never lost consciousness and didnt
think her pneumonia diagnosis was significant enough to disclose beforehand.
I just didnt think it was going to be that
big a deal, she said of the pneumonia diagnosis she received Friday. She told CNNs
Anderson Cooper 360 that despite doctors orders to rest for five days, she thought
she could just keep going forward and
power through it and that didnt work out so
well.
Clinton abruptly left the ceremony and
appeared to stumble while she was waiting
for her motorcade. Asked whether she fainted, Clinton replied: No, I didnt. I felt dizzy
and I did lose my balance for a minute. But I

Trump stands up for backers

even as rally scuffle breaks out
By Jonathan Lemire
BALTIMORE Donald Trump stood up

for his supporters Monday against Hillary
Clintons remark that half of his supporters
belonged in a basket of deplorables,
denouncing the comment as an explicit
attack on the American voter and suggesting that it makes her unfit for the presidency.
But even as Trump defended his backers,
one lashed out at protesters in the hall by
appearing to punch and slap them. Trump
talked through the scuffle.
While my opponent calls you deplorable
and irredeemable, he said in Asheville,
North Carolina, I call you hard-working
American patriots who love their country
and want a better future for all our people.
But his rally was interrupted several times
by demonstrators and, at one moment, brief
violence. As several protesters were being
escorted out by security, a man in the crowd
grabbed a male protester around the neck
and then punched him. He then slapped at a
woman being led out. The Trump supporter
was not ejected by security.

The celebrity businessman talked through
the scuffle but cracked

Drizzle to result in wet
roads, drivers cautioned
Drivers throughout the Bay Area are
being cautioned to drive carefully
because moderate to heavy drizzle forecast through Tuesday morning may
result in wet roads, according to the
National Weather Service.
Because there has been little to no
rain in recent months in the region,
slick roads could create hazardous driving conditions, according to the
weather service.
While rainfall is expected to remain
low, locations that receive heavy drizzle can expect between 0.05 and 0.10
inches by Tuesday morning, weather
service officials said.
Heavy to moderate drizzle is expected along the Peninsula, the Santa Cruz
Mountains and the Big Sur area. The
coastal areas of the North Bay, as well
as San Francisco and the East Bay, will
receive patchy drizzle, according to
the weather service.
Inland areas located away from the
coast and the Bay will likely remain
dry, weather service officials said.
Drivers are urged to travel with extra
caution, especially during commute
times.
By late Tuesday morning, the drizzle
is expected to clear up, resulting in
sunny skies by early afternoon,
according to the weather service.
Demand drives Bay

Area gas price increase
Bay Area gas prices climbed to an
average of $2.77 per gallon over the
past month as refineries failed to keep
pace with strong demand, AAA officials announced Monday.
The regions average cost for unleaded gas grew by $0.08 per gallon since
last month as statewide prices
remained the second-highest in the
country, due partly to refinery
issues, AAA spokeswoman Cynthia
Harris said.
Statewide, drivers paid an average of
$2.73 for a gallon, up $0.07 since the
organization issued its last report on
Aug. 9.
Strong demand in the West Coast
region is currently pressing on limited
supplies, Harris said in a statement.
The drop in supplies can likely be
attributed to issues at two California
refineries earlier this month. The
region also currently has the highest
wholesale price for gasoline, which
translates to higher prices for drivers.
The highest Bay Area increase was
$0. 13 per gallon in Oakland, San

Francisco, Pleasanton and Fremont.
The highest average price per gallon
in the region was San Franciscos
$2.96. In San Mateo, motorists could

The one bright spots in the region
was San Jose, where people paid an

was a decrease of 4 cents over the past

Correctional officer
pleads no contest to
possessing drugs in jail
A correctional officer with the San
Mateo County Sheriffs Office who
was arrested for allegedly possessing
and selling prescription
drugs
such as Xanax, oxycodone and morphine pleaded no
contest Monday to
knowingly bringing drugs into jail,
according to the
Jason Jurow District Attorneys
Office.
Jason Jurow, 32, was admitted to
three years of supervised probation
and ordered to serve 90 days in county
jail. The jail term is modifiable to a
residential drug treatment program,
according to prosecutors.
Jurow allegedly showed up to work
May 20, 2015, appearing to be under
the influence of a controlled substance, according to prosecutors.
He was found to be in possession of
Xanax without a prescription based on
an initial Sheriffs Office investigation. The District Attorneys Office
then took over the investigation and
discovered he was in possession of
thousands of pills including oxycodone and morphine, according to
prosecutors.

Obama, McConnell strike hopeful tone on budget, Zika

By Erica Werner and Nancy Benac
WASHINGTON Striking a conciliatory

tone after an Oval Office sitdown, President
Barack Obama and the top Senate Republican
declared themselves hopeful Monday that an
agreement can be reached to keep the government running and to provide money to
take care of the worsening Zika crisis.
I was encouraged by some of the constructive work thats being done right now,
Obama said after his meeting with the top
four congressional leaders, two from each
party.
Long-sought provisions to provide
money to deal with Zika look likely to be
added to a must-pass spending bill to fund the
government through Dec. 9.
Entering the Capitol after the meeting,
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell
told reporters that the group talked about
wrapping up the funding issue and I think
were all in a very good place to do that on a
bipartisan basis pretty quickly.
Obama, for his part, said his hope is that
by the time Congress adjourns, before the
election, that we will have an agreement in
place to fund the government and that Zika funding will be taken care of.
His remarks in the Oval
Office, with congressional leaders looking on,
represented a marked
shift in tone from a preview of the meeting provided by his spokesman
Mitch
just hours earlier.
McConnell
White
House
spokesman Josh Earnest had said reasonable
people could probably figure out a solution
to the issues in a couple of hours, but added
that unfortunately, theyre stuck with Mitch
McConnell and Paul Ryan being responsible
for this, referring to the Republican leaders
in the Senate and House.
Conservative opposition to the emerging
deal remains, but negotiators worked
through the weekend on the details. The Zika
money has stalled since Obama first requested $1.9 billion in February, but congressional Republican leaders seem likely to jettison
provisions opposed by Democrats restricting any of the money from going to affiliates of Planned Parenthood in Puerto Rico.
California turns to civilians as

inmate firefighters dwindle
By Don Thompson
SACRAMENTO Faced with a shrinking

pool of inmates to help fight major wildfires, California is increasingly turning for
new recruits to its state Conservation
Corps, a program with roots in the Great
Depression and a motto that promises hard
work, low pay, miserable conditions ... and
more!
Prisoners last year made up about 20 per-
cent of California fire crews on several

major blazes, where they used chain saws
and hand tools to chew through tinder-dry
brush and trees to stop the flames.
But the number of available inmates is
declining because counties now oversee
most lower-level felons under a law aimed at
easing prison overcrowding. In addition,
there are fewer incentives for inmates to risk
their lives since a federal court broadened an
early release program for firefighters to
include other inmates.

France to bid adieu to plastic

dishes with controversial ban
By Samuel Petrequin
PARIS Frances latest efforts to reduce

pollution will also affect nature lovers hitting the countryside for an outdoor meal:
Under a controversial new ban, picnickers
wont be able to buy plastic goblets to drink
their beloved wine, or plastic knives to
make ham and butter baguette sandwiches.
Life in the office will be different, too, as
coffee machines will no longer cough out
plastic cups, as part of the countrys plans
to be more environmentally friendly.
The new measure, which took effect last
month, gives producers until 2020 to ensure
that all disposable dishes sold in France are
made of biologically sourced materials and
can be composted. It follows a ban on plastic bags, in place since July.
While several other countries and some
U.S. states have also banned plastic bags,
France appears to be the first country to
introduce a blanket ban on plastic dishware.
It comes after Paris hosted a landmark conference last year on fighting global warming, and as the Socialist government tries to
push France toward the forefront of environmental progress.
While ecologists organizations lauded
the French law and hope it sets an example
for other countries, opponents argue that
product bans hurt consumers, and that the
French measures violate European Union
rules on free movement of goods.
Worried that the French ban could extend
to other countries, Pack2Go Europe, a
Brussels-based organization representing
European packaging manufacturers, says it
will keep fighting it.
We are urging the European Commission
to do the right thing and to take legal action
against France for infringing European
We are urging the European

Commission to do the right thing

law, Pack2Go Europe Secretary General

Eamonn Bates told the Associated Press. If
they dont, we will.
The ban was initially proposed by the
Europe Ecologie-Greens Party and was
adopted by French lawmakers with the aim
of reducing the energy consumed and waste
produced by the plastic processing industry,
as well as the pollution caused by plastic litter.
The ecologists wanted the ban to be introduced as soon as 2017 but it was postponed
until 2020 because of Environment
Minister Segolene Royals initial opposition to the law. Royal deemed it an antisocial measure, arguing that families struggling financially make regular use of disposable tableware.
The measures will ban sales of single-use
plastic cups, plates and glasses unless they
are made of bio-sourced materials that can be
composted in a domestic composting unit.
Bates argues that there is no proof that
bio-sourced disposable cutlery is more environmentally beneficial, and that no products made from bio-sourced plastics will
degrade in a domestic composting unit.
He also said the ban will be understood
by consumers to mean that it is OK to leave
this packaging behind in the countryside
after use because its easily bio-degradable
in nature. Thats nonsense! It may even
make the litter problem worse.

Report: South Sudan

leaders amass wealth
as the country burns
By Rodney Muhumuza
KAMPALA, Uganda South Sudans leaders have amassed wealth abroad amid a conflict in which tens of thousands have been
killed, a U.S.-based watchdog group said
Monday, charging that the civil war is being
fueled by competition among rivals over
national resources such as oil.
South Sudan President Salva Kiir, former
deputy Riek Machar and those close to both
men have looted the country in accumulating wealth that includes mansions, luxury
cars and stakes in a number of businesses
abroad, according to the report by The
Sentry.
The report says it has obtained images of
officials family members jet-setting and
partying in five-star hotels, as well as documentation of their properties abroad.
Officials in South Sudan who earn modest
salaries have been able to amass fortunes
with help from arms dealers, bankers,
lawyers and others abroad, it said.
The key catalyst of South Sudans civil
war has been competition for the grand prize
control over state assets and the countrys abundant natural resources between
rival kleptocratic networks led by President
Kiir and (former) Vice President Machar,
the report says.
The leaders of South Sudans warring par-
ties manipulate and exploit ethnic divisions

in order to drum up support for a conflict
that serves the interests only of the top
leaders of these two kleptocratic networks
and, ultimately, the international facilitators whose services the networks utilize and
on which they rely.
South Sudan, which gained independence
from Sudan in 2011, plunged into conflict
soon after Kiir fired Machar from his post as
vice president in 2013. A peace deal reached
a year ago under international pressure has
been violated repeatedly by fighting, and
Machar fled the country in recent weeks.
The report by The Sentry, which was
cofounded by actor George Clooney, says
that in 2015 it began to follow the money
that has been and continues to be amassed
by networks loyal to either Kiir or Machar.
The report says the countrys leaders,
including some military generals, have
much of their wealth in the form of high-end
properties in neighboring countries such as
Uganda and Kenya. Gen. Paul Malong, the
chief of military staff, owns two villas in
Uganda in addition to a $2 million mansion
in a gated community in Kenyas capital,
Nairobi, according to the report, which
cites his annual salary as roughly $45,000.
Documents show that several children of
the president, including his 12-year-old
son, have held stakes in a number of business ventures, the new report says.

the district to stop construction and
fulll their legal obligations under

It was not until this newspaper published its rst article last month that

it has to cover all costs itself.
The new building should feature
advanced conservation xtures such
as 1-gallon ush toilets, waterless

etc.
It should also showcase onsite
water sourcing such as rainwater collection and graywater ltration for
irrigation, toilet ushing and ltration for vehicle wash-down. San
Francisco already requires these features in new large developments.
The building can also feature recycle-ready plumbing and earthquake

The Sierra Nevada watershed, from
which our citys water comes to us via

No on Measure Q
Editor,
I hope residents of San Mateo read
the actual language for Measure Q
before they send in their ballots this
November. A detailed review of
Measure Q reveals protections for bad
tenants with eviction prevention
clauses. The measure makes it more
difcult for rental property owners to
evict a tenant who is involved in
criminal activity. Under Measure Qs
language, a landlord cannot begin to
initiate eviction proceedings for
criminal activity unless the landlord
issues a written warning to the tenant
rst (11.06(4)). For example, if a
violent tenant assaults another tenant
in the building or commits some
other serious public safety offense,
the landlord would be required to issue
a written notice to cease before any
eviction proceedings could begin.
This added delay would only increase
fear and tension for the neighbors.
During my career as a police ofcer,
I have witnessed too many times how
one bad tenant can ruin the quality of

How much money will be

spent to defeat Measure R?
Editor,
Patty, Gene, Ralph and Marie all
in their 80s and 90s people I knew
personally. Served with eviction
notices or egregious rent increases,
they all died shortly afterwards. I
rmly believe the trauma of eviction
hastened their deaths.
In our groups work increasing
awareness of the rental crisis, we met
innumerable people being displaced.
They lived among us on Douglas,
California, Floribunda, Bellevue,
Bayswater, Highland, Carolans,
Peninsula, Oak Grove, Paloma,
Lincoln, Sanchez, El Camino,
Sequoia, Ogden, Marco Polo. People
in their 60s, 70s and 80s, young families with children and couples trying
to build a future.
Our hospital, Mollie Stones, Il
Piccolo, Peets, Starbucks, Big Joes
and all the other places we love, have
lost employees. Some of them are
still here, but now commute from
Hayward and beyond. Burlingame is a
relatively small town. It is impossible to ignore the drastic changes.
Burlingame is paralyzed by a 30year-old law designed to dispose of
people for prot. Our council ignored
repeated requests to put eviction protections on the agenda. There has
been no formal acknowledgment of
the crisis, or the devastating impacts
on over half of the residents.
The embarrassing piles of money
being spent against Measure R by
those proting from this crisis
should be enough to give voters
pause. Measure R is in fact well-written, cogent and responsible legislation. Lets stop the bleeding in
Burlingame; then we can make meaningful long-range plans for housing.
Our city has absolutely no plan to do
so right now.

Social capital in
education reform
efore our nal exhale, the vast majority of us want

more than anything to nd comfort in knowing
that we have successfully secured a better life and
future for our children. Of the many ways we can work to
accomplish that, ensuring that our children have access to
quality education appears most reliable. More than money,
an education will equip them with the tools to develop a
skill set for a protable profession, a general understanding
of the world in which they inhabit and an opportunity to
continue tradition in leading a better life for the next generation. It is no wonder that education is often the nal linchpin in determining ones success or failure in life.
Mindful of this, for decades,
lawmakers have passed policies
targeted at addressing the education disparity within the nation.
The problem is that education
reform bills always appear to
address the widening educational
achievement gap in one of two
ways: an increase in education
funding or a new form of standardized testing. These proposals
are often necessary, but alone fail
to address the real problem: a
lack of social capital in K-12
schools.
Jonathan Madison
I was only 11 when one of the
nations most sweeping education-reform laws passed in
2001 The No Child Left Behind Act. The purpose behind
the law was to expand the federal role in public education by
regulating teacher performance, scholastic achievement levels of all students and fundamentally changing the school
funding formula. My generation was the guinea pig for the
laws impact on K-12 students.
As I matured through grade school, I witnessed rsthand
many of my classmates fall behind in academics, while others dropped out of school altogether. In retrospect, it
appeared that many of them fell behind because of what the
legislation failed to adequately address: a lack of quality
teachers, community engagement, ample classroom time
and quality educational standards.
Many suggest today that a mere increase in federal education funding will solve the educational achievement gap.
However, history tells a different story. Since 1941, federal
education funding has increased by 9,000 percent, according
to the 2010 documentary Waiting for Superman. All the
while reading and math levels have consistently declined to
unprecedented levels.
Our Golden States education rankings tell a similar story.
According to Californias Department of Education, public
school funding receives nearly half of the states budget,
which far exceeds the amount spent on any other program.
Unfortunately, our Golden State ranks near the bottom of the
50 states in reading and math.
The logical question then becomes why education levels
have advanced inconsistent with funding levels. Robert
Putnam, Harvard University professor of public policy, suggests in his book, Our Kids: The American Dream in
Crisis, that a lack of social capital is to blame for the educational disparities among children. Putnam blames singleparent households, a lack of community engagement, less
involvement in sports and extracurricular activities and low
church attendance for producing a generation lacking
scrupulous values necessary for success and character building. Putnams insight challenges our beliefs about why students of the last six decades academically outperformed students today. The trend tells us what we already know.
Success is most frequently a product of hard work. Hard work
is a product of scrupulous values. Scrupulous values are a
product of many factors, including close relationships, a
loving parent or guardian and character building i.e.,
social capital.
The next logical question is how we can increase social
capital in our communities. Hoover Institution Fellow
Michael J. Petrilli, a critic of Putnams work, suggests we
can build social capital by inviting poor children into better
schools that can spare social capital, build on social capital
that already exists in socioeconomically deprived communities and by creating new charter schools.
There are many ways of building social capital in our
poorest communities. The fact is it will take much more
than any nancial resource to build the missing community
engagement needed to improve our communities of poverty.
The real solution is a much more difcult and unpopular one
for us to grapple with we must each break cynical chains
of thought and work together to build social capital.
We can mentor a young adult around us in need of direction
and guidance. We can volunteer at a local food shelter or
soup kitchen. We can tutor a student in need of academic
assistance. The bottom line is that our opportunities to
build social capital in our local community are endless and
not limited to the federal governments purse.

Stocks leap as investors hope for steady interest rate

By Marley Jay
DOW JONES INDUSTRIALS
NEW YORK U. S. stocks

surged Monday after a Federal
Reserve official said the central
bank shouldnt raise interest rates
too soon, which came as a big
relief to investors. After a market
nosedive on Friday, investors
bought safe investments like
household goods makers and
phone companies. Technology
companies also jumped.
Stocks started the day lower following Fridays drop, but they
soon rallied. Investors were
pleased when Lael Brainard, a
member of the Federal Reserve
board, said the Fed shouldnt raise
interest rates quickly because that
could hurt the economy. The
biggest gains went to safe investments that pay big dividends, as
they are more enticing to
investors when interest rates and
bond yields are low.
Stocks had plunged Friday following remarks from another Fed
official that suggested interest
rates could go up next week.
David Kelly, chief global strategist for JPMorgan Funds, said he

thinks Federal Reserve policymakers seem noncommittal and

arent sure if they should raise
interest rates now or not. In his
opinion, the Feds cautious attitude toward raising interest rates
even a little is causing strong market reactions.
The more cautious they are, the
more sensitive the market
becomes, he said. Whats one
quarter of one percent? Its nothing.

Federal officials speech lowers

expectations for hike next week
WASHINGTON Investors, at
least, suddenly seem more confident about what the Federal Reserve
will announce when it meets next
week:
Nothing.
Stocks soared Monday after an
influential Fed policymaker indicated she was in no hurry to raise
interest rates despite intensified
speculation that the Fed is poised to
tighten U.S. borrowing rates.
After the speech by Lael Brainard,
investors pegged the chance of a
rate hike next week at just 15 percent, down from 24 percent before
her remarks, according to figures
from the CME Group.
In her speech in Chicago,
Brainard suggested that the risk that
18,358.69

18,325.07
+239.62
higher rates might damage a fragile

economy exceeds the risk that
lower rates might ignite inflation.
As a governor on the Feds board
in Washington and a close ally of
Chair Janet Yellen, Brainard is seen
as a key figure at the central bank.
No governor has been on the losing
side of a Fed vote since 2005.
Presidents of the Feds regional
banks are far more likely to cast dissenting votes.
The Dow Jones industrial average
soared 240 points nearly 1.5
percent Monday. About half the
gain came after Brainards speech.
Financial markets had been on
edge after several Fed officials in
recent days had signaled a willingness to resume raising rates when
they meet next week. Low rates
have fueled a steady rise in stock
prices. Until the recent comments,

investors had expected the Fed to
delay a rate hike until December or
later.
Brainard is among the Feds top
doves officials who tend to
think the central bank should be
cautious about raising rates out of
concern that higher rates could stifle borrowing, spending and
growth.
Had she signaled a change of
heart, it might have convinced
investors that a hike was coming
next week, especially after another
perceived dove, Eric Rosengren of
the Federal Reserve Bank of
Boston, signaled a willingness to
raise rates as soon as this month.
Rosengrens comments and anxiety about what Brainard might say
had sent stocks tumbling Friday.

AT&T gained $1, or 2.5 percent,

49ers 28, Rams 0
By Josh Dubow
SANTA CLARA Carlos Hyde ran for 88 yards and two touchdowns and the 49ers posted their first season-opening shutout in
franchise history to spoil the Rams first game since moving
back to Los Angeles with a 28-0 victory Monday night.
Shaun Draughn also ran for a score and Blaine Gabbert threw
a touchdown pass to Vance McDonald to help the 49ers win
their first game under coach Chip Kelly in convincing fashion.
After Los Angeles football fans waited more than 21 years to
once again be able to call a team their own, they need to wait at
least another week to see that team score.

Case Keenum threw for just 130 yards with two interceptions,
star running back Todd Gurley was held to 47 yards on 17 carries
and the Rams barely even threatened the Niners as they made
only 10 first downs all game.
San Francisco wasnt much better offensively but managed to
run the ball fairly effectively early, leading to the two first-half
touchdowns by Hyde and Draughn.

Football storylines
coming into focus
Moore making moves T

By Terry Bernal
Athlete of the Week
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
The Aragon volleyball team wanted to see a

lot more of Melanie Moore. So, Dons head
coach Kelsey Stiles made some big changes
this season to make that happen.
Having played middle hitter for three years,
Moore started her fourth varsity season by
transitioning to outside hitter. To look at her
skill set, the change makes sense. Shes 5-10
with a powerful arm, and touches 9 feet, 10
1/2 inches with her vertical leap.
Ive always wanted to play outside,
Moore said. It was something different and
was good for the team.
Aragons lineup never necessitated the
change until this year though, with the graduation not only of its top two outside attackers
Kaelah Velisano and Anna Joshi, but also of
star libero Maddy Lee. The cure-all for the Dons
was to rely on Moore as a six-rotation player, a
role she hasnt played since middle school.
Shes just the best player of the court, so
you dont want to take her out, Stiles said.
Moore proved she was up to the task over
the weekend at the San Luis Obispo
Tournament. While the Dons had to go it without senior setter Regan Castillo who had to
stay home due to her commitment to taking a
standardized test the team faltered in their
second year playing in the statewide tourney
with a 1-3 record. Yet Moore impressed by
never leaving the court through all four
matches.
It was her performance in last Wednesdays
five-set thriller against Sacred Heart Prep
though the Dons first win of the season
that has earned Moore the title of Daily
Journal Athlete of the Week.
The sharpshooting senior demonstrated her
back-row attacking skills against a red-hot
SHP team, carrying the Aragon offense with a
team-high 16 kills, including terminating the
match-winning shot to cap a 25-14, 25-21,
18-25, 20-25, 16-14 victory to snap a mini
two-match losing streak to start the season.
I think we needed something like that
that we can beat good teams and compete at
that level, Stiles said.

he 2016 high school football

season is already a third of the
way through and while were still
a couple weeks from the start of league
play, there already are some interesting
trends and storylines developing.
There are six teams from the Peninsula
Athletic League that are a perfect 3-0,
while three others two PAL squads and a
surprise are still looking for their rst
wins.
Aragon is the only undefeated team in
the Bay Division and the Dons have been
arguably the most impressive squad so far.
Theyre averaging 43 points per game and
have given up a total of 37. But the combined record of their rst three opponents
in 2-7, including
wins over a pair of
Lake Division
teams (Carlmont
and San Mateo) and
the Ocean
Divisions South
City which is
one of those 0-3
teams.
Woodside leads a
contingent of
Ocean Division
squads that are a
combined 11-0. The Wildcats, along with
Half Moon Bay and a 2-0 Kings Academy
(which had a bye last week) have yet to
taste defeat this year.
Woodside may be the most surprising of
that quartet, given their upset win over
Hillsdale. I only put that in quotes because
these teams are not nearly as far apart as
their division standing may have you
believe. Half Moon Bay has looked downright dominant, following up a big win
over Burlingame two weeks ago with a
methodical 32-3 win over Capuchino.
Mills is the only Lake Division team
that is perfect thus far and, as theyve done
in recent history, the Vikings are feasting
on their non-league schedule. Since 2013,
the Vikings are 12-2 against non-league
opposition, including this season.
The biggest surprise this season is the
combined 0-6 records of two Central Coast

Sanchez haunts old team as Pads blank Giants

By Michael Wagaman
SAN FRANCISCO Hector Sanchez is

getting a lot more comfortable with his
swing and his role on the Padres since coming off the disabled list almost two weeks
ago.
Hitting a home run against his former ballclub provided a lift, too.
Sanchez homered and singled twice in his
return to AT&T Park, and six San Diego
pitchers combined on a five-hit shutout as
the Padres beat the San Francisco Giants 4-0
Padres 4, Giants 0
Monday night.
Its amazing to play in
this ballpark, Sanchez
said. Great fans, beautiful field. Sometimes in
baseball you have to turn
the page. I spent a lot of
Hector Sanchez time with the Giants, had
great memories. But
when you come back here you have to turn
the page and do the best you can do.
Sanchez spent his first five seasons in San
Francisco as a backup behind four-time AllStar catcher Buster Posey and had homered
only twice previously at AT&T Park before
hitting a 2-2 pitch from starter Jeff
Samardzija (11-10) into the stands above the
brick wall in right field with one out in the
sixth.
Its Sanchezs first three-hit game since
May 17, 2014.
That was crazy. I didnt expect the ball to
go out, Sanchez said. I guess I put a good
swing on it and lucky for me it went out.
Yangervis Solarte drove in two runs and

Luis Sardinas added two hits while helping
the Padres to their fourth consecutive win
over the Giants.
It was a bitter loss for San Francisco,
which dropped four games behind the firstplace Los Angeles Dodgers in the NL West
after trimming two games off the lead last
weekend.
With 19 games left, however, the Giants
still lead the race for the leagues top wild
card.

CSM settles for fourth place at Delta tourney

By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
The bubble had to burst eventually for the

College of San Mateo womens volleyball
team.
After winning its first six matches of the
season, CSM dropped two straight Saturday at
the San Joaquin Delta Classic, including a
showdown against reigning Central Valley
Conference champion Fresno City College in
the tourney semifinals 25-19, 25-7, 25-13.
The Lady Bulldogs went on to fall in the
third-place match later in the day against
American River College 25-13, 25-16, 2325, 25-22 to settle for fourth place in the
tournament. CSM advanced to the semis with
wins Friday over Foothill College a state
final-four team from a year ago 25-21, 2519, 25-18 and to host Delta College 25-21,
11-25, 25-16, 25-18.
t was great competition against established programs - just good volleyball, CSM
head coach Katie Goldhahn said. Having four
games coming into it it was just a different
caliber of competition. And we really rose to
it on Friday.
With CSM volleyball in its first year of
existence, Goldhahn hasnt had long to cultivate the chemistry of her mostly freshman
squad. The team only started practicing at the
start of the summer and got three walk-ons the
first day of fall classes.
After cruising to six straight victories to
start the year the Bulldogs dropped just one
set through the winning streak the adversity of back-to-back losses was actually a
positive in helping the team take its chemistry to the next level, according to
Goldhahn.
I think we needed those two losses,
Goldhahn said. We needed to experience losses.

The biggest downside
of CSMs first loss to
Fresno City was an injury
to
libero Alexandra
Legaspi in Game 3. The
freshman was scrapping
for a ball and collided with
Katie Goldhahn one of her teammates,
causing an injury to her
ribcage. Legaspi did not play in the thirdplace game against American River.
Goldhahn said the injury does not appear to
be long-term.
Legaspi currently ranks 10th in Northern
California in digs with 112. Filling the void
for the Bulldogs best defender in Saturdays
nightcap was Veronica Edhdami, one of the
three walk-ons who joined the team last
month.
Edhdami had a solid showing in her first
start, totaling 10 digs. Six-rotation outside
hitters Jade Tu (20) and Kaelah Velisano (12)
also totaled double-digit digs.
It has been the emergence of Malia
Koloamatangi at middle net that has been
making waves on the community college
volleyball circuit though. The 5-8 freshman
is a two-sport athlete, sharing time with the
CSM womens basketball team. That makes
sense since she has proven to have some of
the best ups in the state, currently leading all
California volleyballers with 1.91 blocks
per set.
Middle blocker is a position of strength for
the Bulldogs, who rank fourth in the state as a
team with 3.06 blocks per set. Freshman
opposite Janine Francisco ranks second on
the team with 0.77 blocks per set, while middle Brittany Travis at middle blocker ranks
third with 0.64. Fourth on the team is sophomore setter Samantha Johnson with 0.58.
Its hard to get great middles and its hard
to find great setters, Goldhahn said. Having
a middle attack as a big part of our game is
big.
Strength at middle is a must-have playing
in the Coast Conference North. Chabot
College and defending state-champion
Cabrillo College currently rank No. 6 and 7
respectively in the state among team blocking leaders.
Goldhahn, though, continues to preach the
fundamentals of strong serving and passing,
she said. Contending with a relatively young
team in the Coast North will rely on it, going
up against a team like Cabrillo with nine
returning sophomores.
According to Goldhahn, the Bulldogs fast
start has been a product of making up for their
lack of experience with good, old-fashioned
hustle.
Im happy I have this squad as my first
team, Goldhahn said. Theyre really making a statement. They really hustle.
Now CSM will play the waiting game. The
teams next scheduled match isnt for two
weeks in hosting Mission College 6:30 p.m.
Sept. 28. The schedule gap is due to San Jose
City College recently dropping its volleyball program. The Bulldogs initially had
three scheduled matches against San Jose
City, including two conference matches and a
non-conference warm-up originally tabbed
for Sept. 19.
With CSM allowed to play 22 overall
matches this season, its current slate is down
to 18. Goldhahn said she will look to schedule matches in hopes of playing before the
Coast Conference crossover match against
Mission.

BROOMFIELD, Colo. It was a somber

start to homecoming week Monday at a suburban Denver high school after a bus carrying football players and coaches crashed at
the airport, killing the driver and injuring
18 passengers, some critically.
The bus driver was speeding as she veered
off a roadway and slammed into a concrete
pillar Sunday afternoon at Denver
International Airport after picking up members of the Legacy High School football
squad.
The students were returning from a football game in California, and the vehicle was
circling back to the airport for an unknown
reason when it crashed.

Detectives spent hours interviewing witnesses, including those aboard the bus, but
no one could explain why the driver headed
back toward the terminal before driving
directly into the pillar, Denver police Sgt.
Mike Farr said.
Theres a big mystery there, he said.
The driver was traveling 30 to 40 mph (48
to 64 kmh), too fast for that stretch of roadway, Farr said. Tire tracks show she made no
attempt to avoid the pillar.
Police were investigating the possibility
she suffered a medical condition. They were
also inspecting the bus for mechanical
problems.
Theres no evidence the driver crashed
intentionally, Farr said, but certainly its
one of the things we have to be open to.

The bus carried 28 students and four
adults, airport spokeswoman Heath
Montgomery said.
Fifteen students were taken to hospitals
with minor injuries as a precaution, school
officials said. Three coaches remained hospitalized Monday with serious injuries.
Authorities identified the driver as 43year-old Kari Chopper.
Two victims at Denver Health Medical
Center were in critical condition, two in
serious condition and one in fair condition.
The crash stunned students at the school
in Broomfield, north of Denver. A crisis
team was there to help.
Junior Kevin Segura was relieved to learn
that his friend, a football player, was OK.

Suspension for
player who hit
JC football ref
By Robert Jablon
LOS ANGELES A Southern California

community college football player was suspended for five years on Monday after knocking out a referee during a game, but his school
said the punch was accidental and the penalty
will be appealed.
I knew I wasnt going to play the next
game. ... I didnt think it
would be years, Bernard
Schirmer of Mount San
Antonio College said after
learning of the suspension.
However, the 19-yearold man said in a telephone interview that he
takes full responsibility
for his actions and accepts
Bernard
whatever punishment he
Schirmer
ultimately will receive.
The commissioner of the Southern
California Football Association suspended
Schirmer for what was termed a Level 1
Decorum Infraction, which carries a minimum 60-month suspension.
A letter from football association
Commissioner Jim Sartoris to the college
says an officials game report stated that
Schirmer was disqualified during the third quarter of Saturday nights game in Ventura for an
unsportsmanlike act punching a referee
and knocking him out cold.
The decision to suspend the player was made
after viewing video of the incident and reviewing a report provided by the head referee,
Sartoris said.
Video streaming live from the game showed
the line judge falling to the ground.
I talked to him yesterday. Hes a little sore
from going down so hard, but he said he had no
headache or anything else, Rich Kollen,
director of football operations for the
Southern California Football Association,
said Monday.
Schirmer was arrested on suspicion of battery after the incident, booked at Ventura
Countys jail and released on bail. The district
attorneys office will decide whether to file
criminal charges.
Schirmer, who stands 6-foot-6 (2 meters)
and weighs 275 pounds (122 kilograms), said
he was having words with a defensive end who
had pushed him.
Schirmer said when he becomes frustrated or
angry on the football field, he hits his helmet
to refocus once even giving himself a mild
concussion.

Del Rio says 2-point try was all about believing

By Michael Wagaman
ALAMEDA The most daring gambler

on the NFLs first weekend turns out not to
be much of a betting man at all.
Raiders coach Jack Del Rio isnt a big fan
of horse racing and probably wont be seen
at a poker or craps table any time soon.
Im not a gambler, but I do believe in
having the courage to do what I think is
best for this football team, Del Rio said
Monday, one day after the Raiders scored on
a two-point conversion with 47 seconds
left and held on to beat the New Orleans
Saints 35-34.
Good or bad, Im willing to do that when
Im doing what in my gut I believe is the
right thing. Part of that was showing the
belief in our football team showing the
belief in Derek Carr, showing the belief in
Michael Crabtree. Showing the belief in our
group to go down and do the things we needed to do to win that game.
The Raiders trailed 24-10 early in the second half before scoring 22 points over the
last 12 minutes of the fourth quarter, including the final two on Oaklands gutsy twopoint conversion with the game on the line.
Carr had just thrown his only touchdown

of the game, a 10-yarder to Seth Roberts,
when Carr immediately signaled for the
two-point try. In a stroke of confidence and
pre-planning, Del Rio had informed his
third-year quarterback the team would be
going for the win rather than having
extra push to Gabbert following a scramble.

As players on both teams started jawing,
Donald pushed a 49ers player and then made
contact with an official. Donald was called for
two personal fouls on the play and ejected.
Rams defensive lineman Aaron Donald was

ejected in the fourth quarter when he made
contact with an official. The infraction came
after Rams linebacker Alec Ogletree gave an

on the opening drive, the Rams came up
empty the next 10 times they faced a third
down. They finally broke that drought when
Keenum completed a 5-yard pass to Tavon

extra point.
Following a quick timeout to discuss
things, Carr found Crabtree with a perfectly
placed fade pass that Crabtree caught
despite tight coverage from Saints cornerback Ken Crawley. Crawley, an undrafted
rookie, was in the game because starter
Delvin Breaux was out with a broken leg
suffered in the third quarter.
The Raiders had also successfully gone for
two earlier in the game after whiffing on
their first try.
Del Rio wouldnt say what went into the
decision to do it with the game on the line,
only that it was not an off-the-cuff move.
I prefer to keep strategy inside, inhouse, Del Rio said. A lot of factors went
into it. At the end of the day, you have to go
with what you believe is right for your football team. I believed that we would come
back and win that game. I believed that
going for it was the right thing to do.
Del Rio also stood by his decision to
bench starting cornerback Sean Smith midway through the third quarter after the
eighth-year veteran was repeatedly beaten
by the Saints receivers, most notably on a
98-yard touchdown pass from quarterback
Drew Brees to Brandin Cooks that was the
longest in franchise history.

Del Rio said that Smith, one of Oaklands
top free agent acquisitions this offseason
after signing a four-year contract worth
nearly $40 million, will start again this
week in the Raiders home opener against
Atlanta.
The Raiders coach also emphasized that
he expects much more from Smith and told
him so after the game.
I said, Hey, youve got to own up to
that, Del Rio said. That certainly wasnt
anywhere near where it needed to be and I
know youll bounce back. Be ready to face
the music because theyre going to be coming at you. Hes a big boy. Hell bounce
back. Hes going to be a good player for us.
It was not what we need and he knows that.
Del Rio also praised Oaklands running
game after the Raiders rushed for 167 yards,
including a 75-yard touchdown by undrafted
rookie Jalen Richard.
Oakland also scored on two short touchdown runs, something Del Rio hinted might
have factored into the decision to go for the
game-winning two-point conversion.
Its going to create almost mandatory
one-on-one situations, Del Rio said. And
a guy like Michael one-on-one is a pretty
good bet there.
Austin on third-and-4 late in the third quarter to get to the San Francisco 27. Two
plays later, Keenum negated that good play
by throwing his second interception of the
game .The 49ers opened the Kelly era in a
similar fashion to the way they opened last
year under first-year coach Jim Tomsula.
San Francisco dominated Minnesota 20-3
in the late Monday night opener but won
only four other games all season, leading to
Tomsulas firing.
San Franciscos Colin Kaepernick and Eric
Reid once again kneeled during the national
anthem , while a few other players protested
by raising their fists. Rams defensive lineman Robert Quinn and receiver Kenny Britt
and Niners linebacker Eli Harold and safety
Antoine Bethea all held up their fists in
protest. Kaepernick came on late with the
game out of hand.

Newton tabbed to
play against 49ers
15
As 16, Royals 3
By Steve Reed
As bang out 17 hits to rout K.C.
By Dave Skretta
CHARLOTTE, N.C. Panthers coach

Ron Rivera said he fully expects Cam
Newton to play this Sunday against the San
Francisco 49ers despite taking at least four
helmet-to-helmet hits in a Week 1 loss to
the Denver Broncos.
Rivera said that while Newtons body is
sore, his head is fine.
Hes tough, hes resilient and hes moving around pretty good, Rivera said
Monday, reiterating that his QB has passed
a number of concussion tests.
Newton made a brief appearance in the
locker room, but did not answer questions.
Hes expected to address the media on
Wednesday.
The NFL and the Players Association are
both looking into whether more should
have been done when Newton took a shot to
the head in the final minute of the game
from Denver safety Darian Stewart.
The NFL released a statement last Friday
saying there was communication between
medical personnel on the Carolina sideline,
including the unaffiliated neurotrauma consultant, and the two independent certified
athletic trainer spotters in the booth. They
ultimately concluded there were no indications of a concussion that would require
Newton to be removed from the game.
Center Ryan Kalil said Monday that
Newton did not seem dazed after taking the

terrible outing but one that quickly went

final blow to the head with 36 seconds left in
the game.
If he had any problems I didnt see it,
Kalil said. We were talking about one the
protections and he reminded me about something we talked about earlier in the week (in
practice), so I thought he was fine.
Rivera said he has full confidence that the
Panthers medical staff handled the situation
properly and understands the concussion
protocol. Rivera pointed out that the
Panthers held out their top defensive player,
middle linebacker Luke Kuechly, for three
games last season because of a concussion.
tle bit up in the zone and (Sanchez) was able
to put a barrel on the ball.
Padres starter Paul Clemens (3-5) fought
through flu symptoms earlier in the week and
vomited between innings but still pitched
five gritty innings to end San Franciscos
three-game winning streak. The right-hander
allowed three hits, walked one and struck out
two.
Hunter Pence had two hits for the Giants.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. The As looked

like a team battling for a playoff spot
Monday night, and the Kansas City Royals
looked like a team checked out and ready for
the offseason.
It was supposed to be the other way
around.
Khris Davis and Marcus Semien hit threerun homers, the lowly Athletics matched a
season high with 17 hits while drawing 10
walks, and they trounced the Royals 16-3 in
their series opener.
Its great to have a game like that, As
manager Bob Melvin said. For a team that
struggles to score runs, its nice to have a
positive mood in the dugout.
In the opposite dugout, the reigning World
Series champions could only rue another
game slipping away. The Royals (74-69)
began the day four back of the final wild-card
spot with 20 games to go, and hoped an
eight-game stand against Oakland and the
White Sox would allow them to gain ground.
But with five teams standing in their way,
time is running out.
These games are easy to turn the page, a
lot tougher is losing a one-run game,
Royals manager Ned Yost said. We just got
beat. We didnt play good, we didnt pitch
good and we got beat.
Daniel Coulombe (3-1) earned the win in
relief of Ross Detwiler, though it was the
Oakland offense that led the way. The As
scored their most runs this season for their
largest margin of victory.
Royals starter Dillon Gee (6-8) was battered for five runs on five hits and four walks
in 3 1/3 innings, though he wasnt the only
pitcher to melt down. He was followed by
three relievers in a span of four batters in
the fourth inning, when the As marched
nine to the plate and scored three times.
When youre out there

trying to find something
in a big league game
against big league hitters, it makes it real
tough, Gee said. They
scored a lot of runs, but
its just one game.
By the end, everybody
in
the As starting lineup
Khris Davis
had a hit. Stephen Vogt
was 3 for 3 with two walks and two RBIs,
while Joey Wendle, Arismendy Alcantara
and Ryon Healy drove also drove in two
apiece.
We were swinging at a lot of good pitches, said the As Brett Eibner, who began the
season with Kansas City. We swung at
pitches we want to hit and when you do that,
the runs seem to pile up.
Davis delivered the first big blow in the
third inning when he splashed his 36th
homer into the fountains in left field, a shot
estimated at 447 feet.
When the Royals matched him with three
runs in the bottom half, the As bounced
right back to score three more: Bruce
Maxwell and Eibner opened the fourth with
back-to-back singles, Wendle hit a sacrifice
fly, and the As churned out four hits and two
walks in taking a 6-3 lead.
It was 8-3 when Semien went deep in the
sixth, and Oakland merely piled on from
there.
Theres not much to say, Yost said. Just
one of those nights.
Big league debuts

Royals OF Hunter Dozier and As INF
Renato Nunez and OF/INF Matt Olson made
their major league debuts. Nunez and Olson
were brought up from Triple-A Nashville
prior to the game, with Olson taking the
spot of departed DH Billy Butler on the 40man roster.

The Padres schedule does not get
much easier from here on out. After
a bye this week, they open WCAL
play against Valley Christian. Serra
will need to win ve of its seven
league games to get to the .500
mark and have a shot at making the
playoffs.
SHPs chances, however, seem
much more favorable. In all likelihood, the Gators need to just go 3-2
in PAL Bay Division play to secure
one of the divisions four automatic
playoff bids.
SHP, however, needs to up its
offensive output, while Serras
defense needs to get better in a
hurry.

Big Foods biggest trend? Crusading against Big Food

The blurring of marketing and advocacy
has popped up among packaged food makers,
too. Kind, which makes snack and meal bars
out of fruit and nuts, recently launched a
group for dietitians who want to discuss
nutrition topics. The company also sees it as
an opportunity to boost sales by offering the
dietitians tips for incorporating its bars into
peoples diets.
Chipotle remains an adept practitioner of
the strategy, even as it employs some loopholes. It announced last year that it rid its
menu of genetically modified ingredients,
but serves Coca-Cola sodas made with highfructose corn syrup. It describes its meat as
responsibly raised, an unregulated term
that lets animals eat GMO feed.
The company says most customers simply
like its food. But while its touting of quality
ingredients and ethical sourcing practices
may have helped sales, that positioning may
also partly explain its lagging sales since an
E. coli outbreak last year: Staking its reputation to the superior quality of its ingredients
can make any missteps more devastating.
McDonalds sold off its stake in Chipotle
in 2006, and the burrito maker now has more
than 2,000 outlets and raked in more than
$4.5 billion in sales last year but still
defines itself as an outsider. A billboard at the

practice of applying separate labor rules to
agricultural laborers.
In the state where Cesar Chavez successfully rallied farmworkers to demand union
rights and more dignified working conditions, the legislation, AB1066, will gradually lower the number of hours that ranch
hands and people who tend crops must work
before accruing additional compensation.
Farmworkers will be entitled to time-anda-half pay after eight hours in a day or 40
hours in a week, up from 10 hours a day or
60 a week. The new rules will take full effect
in 2022 for most businesses and in 2025 for

THE DAILY JOURNAL
Lorena Gonzalez, D-San Diego, the bills

author, said in a statement. They will finally be treated equally under the law.
The measure passed after a strong push by
the politically powerful United Farm
Workers. Farming groups warned it will
cause severe hardships for one of
Californias largest industries.
Farm work, marked by crushing workloads during specific periods, has long been
exempted from some of the labor standards
enacted by the federal government beginning in the 1930s, including overtime pay.
Beginning in the 1960s, Chavez brought
laborers together and formed the United
Farm Workers in Californias Central
Valley, making California the epicenter of
their struggle. He used the rallying cry si
se puede, or yes we can, and became a celebrated civil rights leader, particularly
among Latinos.
Brown, a Democrat, signed the historic
bill granting farmworkers the right to
unionize when he was governor in 1975. He
has declined to comment on the overtime

legislation all year and declined again
Monday through spokeswoman Deborah
Hoffman.
California was the first state to give farmworkers collective bargaining rights, workers compensation and unemployment service. The state also requires that employers
provide rest breaks and access to water and
shade.
However, farmworkers were again
exempted when the state guaranteed overtime pay after eight hours in a day, not just
40 hours in a week, in 1999.
Opponents argued the seasonal nature of
farm labor, with long hours crucial to sow
and harvest during specific weather and
growing periods, does not lend itself to
overtime.
They said the legislation would raise
costs for farmers and make it more difficult
for them to compete with rivals in other
states and countries.
The obligation to care for animals does-
nt always adhere to an eight-hour day, 40hour work week, said Justin Oldfield, vice
president of government relations for the
California Cattlemens Association.
Producers cant afford to pay workers
overtime for 60-hour weeks and stay competitive, he said.
They are likely to hire more employees
rather than pay overtime, he said, resulting
in a pay cut for existing employees.
Assemblyman Devon Mathis, R-Visalia,
called the new law a slap in the face that
will deprive farmworkers of needed income.
Sometimes, the best intentions can have
the worst consequences, Mathis said.
Brown also announced Monday that he
had signed SB1015 by Sen. Connie Leyva,
D-Chino, permanently extending what had
been a temporary 2013 law requiring
employers to pay domestic workers such as
nannies, caregivers and housekeepers timeand-a-half if they work more than nine
hours in a day or more than 45 hours in a
week.
pre-filled voter registration form that has

incorrect or outdated information or information for people who do not live at the
address, according to Padillas office.
It is important that organizations conducting voter registration drives through
the mail ensure that their voter data is up to
date and accurate, Padilla wrote in a statement.
Causing confusion right before an election is wrong, Padilla wrote.
The San Mateo County Elections Office
has also gotten calls from voters about the
mailings.
We received many inquiries both by
phone and in person by voters who received
mailings from the Voter Participation
Center.We are handling those inquiries and
informing voters to disregard the letter if
the individual is already registered or ineligible to vote, Jim Irizarry, assistant assessor-county clerk-recorder wrote in a email to
the Daily Journal.
Padilla suggested to check directly with
county elections offices if an individual is

concerned whether they are registered to
vote.
While some of the letters may have been
sent to eligible, but not-registered citizens,
the surge in calls to registrars has indicated
clear discrepancies in the data causing confusion and concern, Logan wrote.
Registrars begin mailing sample ballots
for the election early next month. Any voter
receiving a sample ballot can be assured
that they are listed as active on the voter
file. Only voters who have a change in
address or name need reregister prior to the
Oct. 24 voter registration deadline, Logan
wrote.
The Voter Participation Center, VPC, is a
non-partisan organization dedicated to
increasing the participation of historically
underrepresented Americans. Since its
founding, it has helped 3 million Americans
register to vote.
Currently, 8.1 million voting-eligible
African-Americans, Latinos, millennials
and unmarried women are not registered to

vote in California, according to the
agency.
Unfortunately, no state makes available
a list of individuals who are unregistered to
vote. As a result, VPC must use commercially available residential databases and match
them to the states voter file to determine
who is unregistered and otherwise eligible,
according to a statement by Page Gardner,
founder of Voter Participation Center.
The agency works hard to ensure its lists
are accurate and that letters are sent only to
unregistered, eligible voters, Gardner wrote
in the statement.
Despite our best efforts, sometimes mail
goes to the wrong recipient. When that happens, VPC moves quickly to correct it,
Gardner wrote.
The deadline to register for the November
election is Oct. 24.

Surge in ER visits for injuries, concussions from soccer

By Lindsey Tanner
CHICAGO Soccer injuries are

sending soaring numbers of U.S. kids
to emergency rooms, a trend driven in
part by young players with concussions seeking urgent medical care, a
study has found.
The findings, based on 25 years of
data, partly reflect soccers growing
popularity. But the researchers and
sports medicine experts believe the
trend also is a result of greater awareness about concussions and their
potential risks. Coaches and parents
are likely seeking emergency treatment
for symptoms that in previous years
might have been downplayed or overlooked.
Nearly 3 million players aged 7
through 17 received ER treatment for
soccer-related injuries in the 20002014 study. The overall rate of injuries,
which takes into account soccers rising popularity, more than doubled to
220 per 10,000 players in 2013, from
106 per 10,000 players in 1990.
Researchers did not have enough data to
calculate 2014 rates.
More than 200,000 concussions or
head injuries were treated in emergency
rooms, or 7 percent of injuries. The rate
jumped to almost 30 per 10,000 people

in 2013 from just under 2 per 10,000
players in 1990.
That trend underscores a need for better safety education and injury prevention in youth soccer, said Dr. Huiyun
Xiang, the lead author and a researcher
at the Center for Injury Research and
Policy at Nationwide Childrens
Hospital in Columbus, Ohio.
Concussions can have significant
consequences in terms of cognitive
function and brain development,
Xiang said.
His study is an analysis of data from a
national injury surveillance system and
was published Monday in Pediatrics.
According to U.S. Youth Soccer, there
were more than 3 million registered
soccer players younger than 19 in
2014, almost twice as many as in 1990.
The rate of injuries from playing soccer has ranked second behind football
in other studies on youth sports, including an analysis of 2015-2016 data from
Reporting Information Online, an
internet-based injury surveillance system for high school sports.
For boys, football-related concussions result in more ER visits than
other sports, according to previous
research. For girls, its soccer, according to an analysis of 2001-2012 data
by the federal Centers for Disease

Control and Prevention. The current
study lacks information on gender-specific soccer injury rates.
Sprains and fractures were the most
common injuries; most players were
not hospitalized. Falling and getting
hit by another player or the ball were
among leading causes of injury but
theres no data in the study on whether
many injuries were from heading the
ball.
Concern about kids injuries from
heading led to the U.S. Soccer
Federations recent restrictions including a ban for kids aged 10 and younger
and limits on heading for those aged
11-13.
Many concussions in soccer occur
when heads collide as two players jump
up to head the ball, said Dr. Cynthia
LaBella, a sport medicine specialist at
Chicagos Ann & Robert H. Lurie
Childrens Hospital. She said learning
proper technique including tensing
neck muscles can help kids avoid injury
while heading the ball.
Labella noted that soccer has become
so popular that it attracts kids with a
wide range of athletic ability, and that
many injuries she treats are in kids who
lack adequate strength and conditioning
for their soccer level.

Court says Yelp not liable for

negative rating stars on site
By Sudhin Thanawala
SAN FRANCISCO Online review

site Yelps star rating system does not
make it responsible for negative
reviews of businesses because it is
based on user input, a federal appeals
court ruled on Monday, dismissing a
libel lawsuit filed against Yelp by a
Washington state locksmith company
owner.
The 9th U. S. Circuit Court of
Appeals said the star rating system
that Yelp features is not content created by the company that helps guide
people to everything from restaurants
to plumbers. Under federal law, the
decision said, Yelp is not liable for
content its users post.
The ruling focused on the libel lawsuit filed by Douglas Kimzey, a locksmith business owner in Redmond,
Washington. The court said Kimzeys
business received a negative review on
Yelp in 2011. The review by a person
identified in court documents only as
Sarah K gave Kimzeys company

to respond to a car lockout and then

was moved to tears when discussing
the award.
Im very proud that Roosevelt has
received this recognition, she said.
For many years, Roosevelt was
looked down on. Now parents recognize its a good place to bring their
children.
Torlakson expressed a similar sentiment.
They have overcome many obstacles and this is now a place where all
students thrive, he said.
Clifford, Hoover, Roy Cloud and
Taft elementary schools in Redwood
City also received recognition as
Go l d Ri b b o n Sch o o l s wh en t h e
award winners were announced in
April. The award was created to fill
t h e v o i d o f t h e Cal i fo rn i a
Distinguished School award, which
was suspended while the state developed a new accountability system,
Kimzey said he plans to appeal the

decision to a larger panel of the
appeals court. He claimed the negative
review was actually about another
business, and said Yelp attached it to
his company in an attempt to extort
him to pay to advertise with Yelp.
The appeals court called Kimzeys
allegations threadbare and said there
was no evidence presented that Yelp
fabricated content under a third partys
identity.
We fail to see how Yelps rating
system, which is based on rating
inputs from third parties and which
reduces this information into a single,
aggregate metric is anything other
than user-generated data, said Circuit
Judge M. Margaret McKeown, writing
for a unanimous three-judge panel decision.
The appeals court has ruled previously that the 1996 Communications
Decency Act lets websites provide
neutral tools to post material online
and that they cannot be held liable for
libelous or potentially libelous material posted by third parties. The issue
has come up in a closely watched
California case in which a state court
ordered Yelp to take down defamatory
statements about a law firm.
An appeals court upheld the decision, and Yelp is now asking the state
Supreme Court to review it. Critics
argue that the ruling is a broad assault
on protections Internet companies
have long enjoyed under the
Communications Decency Act and
could threaten the free exchange of
ideas online.
Mondays ruling affirmed a lower
federal court decision that also dismissed Kimzeys claim that Yelp
should be held liable for distributing
reviews to search engines.
The appeals court said distributing
the content does not make Yelp the creator or developer of the content.
The appeals court rightly confirmed
Yelps ability to provide a forum for
millions of consumers to share their
experiences with local businesses,
said Aaron Schur, Yelps senior director
of litigation.
Kimzey said he lost 95 percent of his
business after getting one star.
If you have a one-star rating, people wont go near it, said Kimzey,

adopted last week by state officials.

Following the speech to students,
Torlakson said he planned to have a
private lunch with Girardi and others
who contributed to the turnaround at
Roosevelt Elementary School, in an
attempt to identify successful strategies to employ at the state level.
Though the most recent round of
state standardized test scores showed
improvement from the year prior,
Torlakson told the Daily Journal he
remained concerned over the achievement gap existing between the successes of students from privileged
communities and the hurdles faced by
those less fortunate.
Better understanding the approach of
educators in Redwood City could eventually lead to development of a database of strategies designed to help students from Latino communities that
may need additional assistance, especially while developing reading and
writing skills, said Torlakson.
Such a resource would be helpful for
state education officials when considering allocating resources to school
districts in need of additional money
or educational aid, said Torlakson.

We want other districts to understand what they did, he said.
Parents, teachers, administrators,
students and community members
believing the school was capable of
improving its academic track record
was integral to the recent success,
Girardi said.
Torlakson agreed establishing high
expectations at Roosevelt Elementary
School, and others like it, is often a
first step toward improving a school
which had previously struggled.
He said he looked forward to working
with Redwood City Elementary School
District officials in developing strategies which could benefit all state students.
We want to impart to other districts
what are the pathways they identified,
he said.
In speaking to students, Torlakson
encouraged all members of the
Roosevelt Elementary School community to continue the hard work leading
toward the schools recognition.
Congratulations, he said. Lets
keep doing it.

Syria cease-fire enters into effect, rebels dont commit

By Philip Issa
and Bassem Mroue
BEIRUT A cease-fire came

into effect in Syria at sunset
Monday in the latest attempt led
by the United States and Russia to
bring some quiet in the 5 1/2-year
civil war.
Residents and observers reported quiet in most of the country
hours after the truce came into
effect, though activists said
airstrikes took place on contested
areas around the northern city of
Aleppo.
But the most powerful rebel
groups have shown deep misgivings over the cease-fire deal,
which was crafted without their
input last weekend in Geneva
between the top U.S. and Russian
diplomats. Hours after it came into
force, a coalition of rebel factions
put out a statement that stopped
short of committing to the ceasefire, a reflection of their distrust of
the government.
The first week of the truce will
be crucial. During that time, all
fighting between the military of
President Bashar Assad and rebels
is to stop. But, Assads forces can
continue air strikes against the
Islamic State group and al-Qaidalinked insurgents from the group
once known as the Nusra Front.
However, the al-Qaida linked
insurgents are closely allied to
many rebel factions and are a powerful force in the defense of
Aleppo in particular. That raises
the danger that continued
airstrikes will draw rebels into
retaliation, eventually leading to
the cease-fires collapse, much as
previous attempts earlier this year
fell apart.
Compounding the situation, a
group of 21 rebel factions issued a
statement Friday in which they
warned against targeting al-Qaidalinked militants. The statement
was non-committal about whether
the groups would abide by the
cease-fire.
After a week, however, the conflict would potentially enter a dramatically different stage. A new
U.S.-Russia coalition will step in
to target former Nusra Front mili-

Confusion over cease-fire as U.S. walks back Kerry comments

By Bradley Klapper
WASHINGTON Confusion
reigned Monday over Syrias new
cease-fire as Secretary of State
John Kerry said the United States
and Russia could permit President
Bashar Assads government to
launch new airstrikes against alQaida-linked militants. The State
Department quickly reversed
itself.
Spokesman John Kirby said
later there were no provisions
under the nationwide truce for
U. S. -Russian authorization of
bombing missions by Assads
forces. This is not something
we could ever envision doing,
he said.
Kerrys comments at a news
conference were the closest any
American official had come to
suggesting indirect U.S. cooper-
ation
with
Assad since
the civil war
started
in

than five years
ago; the U.S.
blames the Syrian leader for a war
that has killed perhaps a halfmillion people.
While Kirby called his boss
remarks incorrect, Kerrys
statement reflected the general
murkiness of an agreement that
hasnt been presented publicly in
written form. The deal came after
a marathon negotiation between
Kerry and Russian Foreign
Minister Sergey Lavrov last
Friday; descriptions by the two
diplomats represent the only
public explanation of what was

agreed to.
Under the truce that went into
effect at sundown Monday,
Assads forces are no longer supposed to bomb Syrias opposition, Kerry said.
If calm holds for seven days,
the U.S. and Russia would then
cooperate on how to jointly combat the al-Qaida-linked group formerly called the Nusra Front and
now known as Jabhat Fatah alSham. But the two powers also
could approve Syrian combat
missions against the group, he
said.
Assad is not supposed to be
bombing
the
opposition,
because there is a cease-fire,
Kerry told journalists at the State
Department. Now he is allowed
... to target Nusra. But that will
be on strikes that are agreed upon
with Russia and the United States
in order to go after them.
tants, and Assads forces will no

longer be permitted to. That will
effectively remove Assads pretext
for war on opposition areas,
which he calls a war on terror.
Government forces will be
allowed to fight defensively, tar-
get the Islamic State group and, in

some designated areas, go after
Nusra forces.
The deals architects hope that
would pave the way for an extended period of restraint that can
serve as the foundation for peace
talks between the wars many

sides.
As the cease-fire came into
effect, U. S. Secretary of State
John Kerry said Monday that rebel
factions must distance themselves
from the al-Qaida-linked mili-
tants, whose group recently

changed its name from Nusra to
Jabhat Fatah al-Sham, or Levant
Conquest Front.
He also said the Syrian government must allow deliveries of
humanitarian aid into besieged
areas, including the rebel-held districts of Aleppo.
Russias
Deputy
Foreign
Minister Mikhail Bogdanov said
peace talks between opposition
groups and the government could
resume as early as next month.
Multiple rounds earlier this year
in Geneva failed to make progress.
Ultimately, talks have run into the
question that neither side is willing to budge on the fate of
Assad and his government. As a
result, the war has continued the
grinding violence that has so far
killed more than 250,000 people
and driven some 11 million people, half of Syrias population,
from their homes since 2011.
That same roadblock makes
prospects for a peace dim even if
the cease-fire does hold, said Syria
analyst Aron Lund.
Opposition
groups
have
demanded Assads departure as a
condition to lasting peace, which
has so far been a non-starter for
government negotiations.
Its an existential question for
the regime as it currently stands.
Its about the regime or not, said
Lund.
In a letter to rebels disseminated
last weekend, U.S. Special Envoy
for Syria Michael Ratney promised them that, our priority
remains calming the situation to
allow the launch of a credible
political operation that leads to a
true political transition that
Syrians want most determinedly, a
new Syria without Bashar Assad.
A copy of the letter was given to
the Associated Press by an opposition official.
Earlier Monday, a main opposition group linked to several small,
moderate rebel factions said they
will deal positively with the
truce brokered by the U.S. and
Russia. The Syrian National
Coalition said that any effort that
aims to end the suffering of the
people is a step in the right direction and we will deal with it positively.
