New apartments offered in South San Francisco

Proposals for downtown would offer 83 residential units
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Another large housing project

may rise along the growing skyline of downtown South San
Francisco, as officials are set to
consider another new development that would bring 83 more
residential units to the city.
Members of the citys Planning
Commission will hear the proposal for constructing a seven-story
apartment building at 211 Airport
Blvd., located between Baden and

Grand avenues, at their meeting
Thursday, June 4.
The project is the next in line
among a slew of large-scale residential developments that have
come before the City Council or
Planning Commission for consideration this year, as South San
Francisco ramps up its effort to
offer more local housing options.
The 211 Airport Blvd. project
proposes to offer 83 apartments,
spread across five floors of hous-
ing that sits on top of two levels

of parking spaces.
A majority of the units in the
project are two-bedroom apartments, as there are only four onebedroom units and three three-bedroom units in the development.
The project will offer 134 parking spots, 10 more than are
required by city regulations,
which will supply one spot per
apartment and more for multi-

Burlingame workers quickly fix a broken water main on Acacia Drive Wednesday morning. City officials have
identified improvements to Burlingames 100-year-old pipes and are engaged in an ongoing effort to address them.
Quick fix to old pipe

Burlingame water mains showing their age, city committed to repair
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
An underground water main

break temporarily halted service
for Burlingame residents living on
Acacia Drive, which city officials
say is the type of issue that comes
with an aging infrastructure that is
being systematically fixed.
Residents living on the 700
block of Acacia Drive were without
water for about 40 minutes around
10 a.m. Wednesday, June 3, while

crews worked to fix the issue, said
Mike Heathcote, the citys water
operations supervisor.
Officials said the broken pipe is
a product of an infrastructure system that is roughly 100 years old,
and is being fixed through an
ongoing effort to address capital
improvement projects.
City Manager Lisa Goldman, in
an email, said officials have identified the need to improve under-
ground water pipes and allocated

significant resources to fix and
maintain the old system.
The City Council approved a
capital improvements program to
replace and upgrade the citys
aging and deteriorated drinking
water supply and distribution system, she said. Weve completed
approximately $38 million in
improvements and still have about
$88 million worth of work left to

San Mateo Countys budget will

Maltbie unveiled the recommended budget for the next two
fiscal years Wednesday that calls
for spending $278 million on
capital improvement projects
including completing construction of a new jail as well as constructing both a dispatch center
and animal control center.

The budget also includes a $12
million contribution toward completing a library in Half Moon
Bay.
Despite the countys unemployment rate being only 3.2 percent
and improving retail sales,
Maltbie notes in his budget message that more people residing in
the county are living in poverty

Villa then walked away back to his house.
The victim suffered a brain injury in the

A man celebrates after the Los Angeles City Council approved a proposal to increase the
minimum wage to $15 per hour in Los Angeles.
Los Angeles council votes to

raise minimum wage to $15
By Christopher Weber
LOS ANGELES The City Council voted

13-1 on Wednesday to raise the minimum
wage in Los Angeles to $15 an hour by
2020, but a second vote is required for final
approval because the tally was not unanimous.
Nonetheless, Council President Herb
Wesson stressed to the cheering crowd that
the outcome was all but certain. He told his
council colleagues before the vote that it
may be the most important one of their
political careers.
The winds in this country do blow from
the west to the east, and cities throughout
the United States will watch what we do and
they will do the same, he said. So the
action that were taking today will affect
millions.
The ordinance also has the endorsement of
Mayor Eric Garcetti.
The increases would begin with a wage of
$10.50 in July 2016, followed by annual
increases to $12, $13.25, $14.25 and then
$15. Small businesses and nonprofits would
be a year behind.
Before the vote, representatives of the
business community warned of harmful
effects from an increase while workers urged
passage of the ordinance.
Calls for raising the minimum wage have

grown as the nation struggles with fallout
from the recession, worsening income
inequality, persistent poverty and the challenges of immigration and the global economy.
Los Angeles would join Seattle and San
Francisco as some of the largest cities in the
nation with phased-in minimum wage laws
that eventually require annual pay of about
$31,200 for a full-time job.
Last year, Chicago passed a phased-in
minimum wage increase to $13 an hour.
Earlier this week, the California Senate
approved a plan to raise the statewide minimum wage again, lifting it to $13 an hour in
2017 and tying it to the rate of inflation
after that.
New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio has
said he also wants to boost his citys lowest
hourly pay to $15.
In Los Angeles, some business leaders had
expressed concern about potential amendments to the wage increase proposal that
have been suggested over the past several
weeks. The changes include an exemption
for companies with unionized workforces
and a mandate that companies give workers
as many as 12 paid days off a year.
The mayor has declined to say whether he
supported either amendment.
The final vote is set for June 10.
SACRAMENTO California lawmakers

on Wednesday pushed through an ambitious
climate change package to further reduce the
states carbon footprint and boost the use of
renewable energy to 50 percent in 15 years.
The state Senate passed proposals to enact
Gov. Jerry Browns call to curb greenhouse
gas emissions by setting what the administration calls the most aggressive benchmark in North America over the objection of
Republicans who characterized such regulation as coastal elitism that would kill working-class jobs.
California aims to boost statewide renewable electricity use to 50 percent, have drivers use half as much gasoline and make
buildings twice as efficient under the proposal by Senate President Pro Tem Kevin de
Leon, D-Los Angeles. His bill, SB350,
advanced to the Assembly on a 24-14 vote.
California has demonstrated our global
climate leadership over

the last decade, de Leon
said, adding, These policies will further cement
our leadership, further
strengthen our economy
while protect the health
of our communities.
Senate Democrats also
approved
an overarching
Kevin de Leon
proposal to further reduce
Californias greenhouse gas emissions to
40 percent below 1990 levels by 2030.
The goal is a mile marker on the way to
cutting emissions by 80 percent from 1990
levels by 2050 that was set by Browns
predecessor,
former
Gov.
Arnold
Schwarzenegger.
SB32 by Sen. Fran Pavley, D-Agoura
Hills, passed the Senate on a 22-15 vote.
It is a big number science-based number, however, Pavley said, what we have
to do without reaching the tipping point
regarding global climate change.

March 22, 1927 May 18, 2015
Gordon Alex Moore of Woodside, CA passed away on May 18, 2015

after a long illness.
Gordon was the long-time owner of Talbots Toyland in San Mateo.
Talbots Toyland is known and loved throughout the Peninsula by
generations of families.
He was born in Chico, CA on March 22, 1927, graduated from Grant Union High School
in North Sacramento, CA in 1944. He joined the U.S. Navy in 1945 and was discharged in
1946. Gordon graduated from UC Berkeley where he was a member of Sigma Phi. After
graduating, he married Joan Talbot on May 22, 1948 in Carmel, CA.
In 1953 Talbots Toyland opened in San Mateo. Joans parents, Wilburn Lank and
Betty Talbot, founded the store, later assisted by Gordon and Joan. Over the years
Talbots grew from a small corner shop to a premier destination toy, hobby and bicycle
shop for the San Francisco Bay Area. It remains one of the largest independent toy stores
in the country.
Enjoying the outdoors, shing and travel were important to Gordon and Joan and were
later reected in their home in the woods where they enjoyed forests, wildlife and views
of the Bay as well as forest gardening which required use of their tractor, wood chippers
and multiple chainsaws.
As avid skiers, golfers and shers Gordon and Joan traveled the West, Canada and
Alaska. They also toured much of Europe by foot with their European Walking Tours
group, a collection of friends from UC Berkeley who spent many summers together.
Gordon was preceded in death by his parents and older brother, Gail Moore Junior. He
is survived by his wife, Joan; sons Stephen T. (Shirley) Moore and Gary E. (Terri) Moore;
younger brother Gilbert L. (Susan) Moore, four grandchildren, nine great-grandchildren
and their sweet dog Tizzy.
At his request no services were held. The family suggests contributions to Warriors and
Quiet Waters. http://warriorsandquietwaters.org/

California anti-profiling bill requires data on police stops

By Fenit Nirappil

unprecedented data collection on police

It was one of dozens of bills considered
ahead of a Friday deadline to pass legislation out of one chamber of the Legislature.
The Senate also approved an ambitious climate change package that would boost the
use of renewable energy to 50 percent in 15
years and slash greenhouse gas emissions.

A citizens group called the Committee to

concerns hundreds of permits that state officials gave oil companies to operate in
underground water reservoirs that were supposed to be off-limits under federal safedrinking water laws.

How do the justices

weigh loss of health
insurance for millions?
By Mark Sherman
WASHINGTON The Supreme

Court could wipe away health
insurance for millions of
Americans when it resolves the
latest fight over President Barack
Obamas health overhaul. But
would the court take away a benefit
from so many people? Should the
justices even consider such consequences?
By months end, the court is
expected to decide a challenge to
the way subsidies, in the form of
tax credits, are given to people
who get their insurance through
the Affordable Care Act. The legal
issue is whether Congress authorized payments regardless of where
people live, or only to residents
of states that established their
own insurance exchanges.

The distinction is potentially
momentous, since more than twothirds of the states did not set up
their own exchanges. In those
states, people rely on the federal
healthcare.gov site to sign up for
insurance. The financial benefits
are substantial, covering nearly
three-fourths of insurance premiums on average.
If the court rules that the subsidies cant be given to people who
enrolled on the federal site, 7 million to 9 million Americans would
quickly lose their insurance, said
Nicholas Bagley, a health law
expert at the University of
Michigan and a supporter of the
law known as Obamacare.
The consequences of a government defeat here are so extraordinary and sweeping, he said.
Since the New Deal, the Supreme
In many states, people rely on the federal healthcare.gov site to sign up for insurance. The financial benefits are
substantial, covering nearly three-fourths of insurance premiums on average.
Court has almost always upheld
major new government programs
and legislation as allowable under
the Constitution. That was the
case with Social Security in the
1930s, the civil rights legislation
of the 1960s and, most recently,
the health care law in 2012.
After Social Security gets
upheld in 1937 against various
constitutional challenges, it then

becomes an issue for the voters,
but not a second-round judicial
question for the court, said John
Q. Barrett, a law professor at St.
Johns University in New York.
But the health law is different. It
remains a bitter partisan fight,
continuing to play out in the
courts after efforts to replace
Obama in the White House and

repeal the law in Congress failed.
The current dispute turns not on
some great constitutional question but a matter of statutory interpretation or what the words of
the law mean. This case comes
down to the meaning of four words
established by the state in
a law of more than 900 pages.
Californias largest lake threatened by urban water transfer

By Elliot Spagat
SALTON CITY Once-bustling

marinas on shallow water in
Californias largest lake a few
years ago are bone-dry. Carcasses
of oxygen-starved tilapia lie on
desolate shores. Flocks of eared
grebes and shoreline birds bob up
and down to feast on marine life.

An air of decline and strange
beauty permeates the Salton Sea:
The lake is shrinking and on
the verge of getting much smaller
as more water goes to coastal
cities.
San Diego and other Southern
California water agencies will
stop replenishing the lake after
2017, raising concerns that dust
from exposed lakebed will exacerbate asthma and other respiratory illness in a region whose air
quality already fails federal standards. A smaller lake also threatens fish and habitat for more than
400 bird species on the Pacific
flyway.
Many of the more than 10,000
people who live in shoreline communities cherish the solitude but
now feel forgotten. The dying lake

must compete for water as
California reels from a four-year
drought that has brought sweeping, state-ordered consumption
cuts.
Julie Londo, who moved to
Salton City after visiting in 1986
from Washington state, hopes for
help for the periodic, rotten odor
from the lake that keep residents
inside on hot, fly-filled summer

nights. The stench in 2012 carried
more than 150 miles to Los
Angeles.
Unfortunately, thats the only
time anyone will listen because we
dont have a voice, Londo, 60,
said on her porch, one of the few
that still lies a stones throw from
water. You can scream all you
want. Nobody cares.

Can Marriage Exist Between
Science And Religion?

By Paul Larson
MILLBRAE
Some
say
that
science and religion
dont mix. Some
say that science is
the ultimate search
for God. Some say
religion supersedes
science, some say both have equal stature
and others say both are hogwash. Everyone
has their own personal assessment of the
correlation between science and religion.
The aspiration of religion along with the
aspiration of science is to explain the
universe and answer questions about life, in
addition to satisfying human psychological
needs when dealing with the realities of
death. Religion is based on faith, science is
based on observation, and both are based on
human curiosity and the need to find
answers. Whether a person is repetitively
reading religious scripture, or fascinated by
repeatable scientific experimentations, both
are searching for methods that answer
questions about the universe around us.
It can be debated that early humans
turned to religion as a way to alleviate their
fears and gain reassurance with the concept
of life after death. This helped to give them
a sense of order in a confusing world that
often seemed mysterious.
Eventually
scientific realization evolved along side
religion and the process of trial and error
established itself as a way to solve some of
these mysteries. Firethe wheelfarming.
The more humans observed the world they
lived in, the more they leaned how the
natural world worked and how they could
manipulate it to their advantage. Over the
centuries religious power came at odds with
scientific discovery, which led to a period of
scientific stagnation: The Dark Ages.

Later at the dawn of The Renaissance
science was again embraced leading to great
advances in art, architecture, medicine,
astronomy and other natural sciences. Over
the ages science and religion have been
evolving together on a roller coaster ride of
acceptance, denial and equilibrium.
We now appear to be at a crossroads
where religion is not only viewing science
with an evaluative broadmindedness, but is
exploring hand in hand with scientific
processes.
One prime example is the
Vaticans
Pontifical
Academy
of
Sciences. Quoting John Paul II: ...today
eminent scientists are members a visible
sign of the profound harmony that can
exist between the truths of science and the
truths of faith.... Gregor Mendel, the father
of Genetics, was an Augustinian Friar.
Georges Lemaitre, who developed much of
the Big Bang Theory, was a Belgian priest.
Recently, Pope Francis, who has a Masters
Degree in Chemistry, insisted that there is
no reason to believe that science and God
are incompatible.
With all this in mind, every human being
is unique as a fingerprint, and every human
brain has its own unique consciousness.
Whether you analyze with your religious cap
or your science cap, matrimony between the
two could be found by looking inward. So,
close your eyes, examine your deep
thoughts, and you may detect a rational
enlightenment finely attuned to both.

President says China putting out

feelers about joining trade pact
By Jim Kuhnhenn
and Charles Babington
WASHINGTON President Barack

Obama said China has made inquiries about
potentially joining a Trans-Pacific trade
agreement in the future, introducing a new
variable to an unfolding debate in Congress
over granting him the power to negotiate
such international deals.
In an interview Wednesday with American
Public Medias Marketplace radio show,
Obama offered assurances that the TransPacific negotiations among the U.S. and 11

FOIA backlog soaring despite

Obama pledge of transparency
By Stephen Ohlemacher
WASHINGTON Federal agencies are

struggling to keep up with the growing
number of requests for public information,
raising questions in Congress about the
Obama administrations dedication to transparency.
The backlog of unfulfilled requests for
documents has doubled since President
Barack Obama took office in 2009, according to a recent report by the Justice
Department. The number of requests also has
spiked.
The president has committed to creating
an unprecedented level of openness in government, said Rep. Jason Chaffetz, RUtah, chairman of the House Oversight and
Government Reform Committee. But thats
not the case in filling requests under the
Freedom of Information Act.
Chaffetz cited examples of people waiting
years for documents only to have their
requests denied. In other cases, federal agencies blacked out information that was public
elsewhere. One document produced by the
Federal Communications Commission
blacked out a news release already publicly
released, Chaffetz said.
Chaffetz committee wrapped up two days
of hearings on the FOIA Wednesday, with
some Republican members chastising federal officials responsible for disclosing public information.
Youre part of the problem, said Rep.

Jody Hice, R-Ga.
Officials from the Departments of State,
Justice, Homeland Security and Treasury testified, along with an official from the IRS.
Several Democrats came to their defense,
noting that budget cuts have left fewer workers to process information requests.
Logic tells you that when you have less
people and youve got more demand, youre
going to have problems, said Rep. Elijah
Cummings of Maryland, the committees
top Democrat.
Governmentwide, the backlog of requests
went from 77, 000 in 2009 to nearly
160,000 in 2014, according to the Justice
Department report.
The increase coincided with a jump in
requests. In 2009, the federal government
received almost 558,000 requests for information. In 2014, the number increased to
more than 714,000.
At the same time, the number of staff
working full time on information requests
dropped from a high of 4,400 in 2011 to
about 3,800 in 2014.
Melanie Ann Pustay, the director of the
departments office of information policy,
said the administration has improved training and made some progress.
First, the majority of agencies 72 out
of 100 were able to maintain low backlogs of fewer than 100 requests, Pustay
said. Notably, 59 of these agencies had a
backlog of less than 20 requests, including
29 that reported having no backlog at all.
Obama often has promoted the TransPacific deal as a way for the U.S. to gain
influence in Asian markets and to keep
China from writing the rules of the road. If
China were to join at some point, it would
have to agree with the agreements standards.
Even without China, Obama argued that if
other leading economies in the Asia-Pacific
region agree to enforceable labor and environmental standards, intellectual property
protections and reduced tariffs, then China
is going to have to at least take those international norms into account.
Obama wants negotiating authority that
would set rules for future trade deals, with
lawmakers retaining the right only to
approve or reject the final agreements, but
not change them. Republican leaders and a
majority of GOP lawmakers support
Obamas push. Most House Democrats are
stiffening their opposition, contending the
deals would be toothless and cost jobs.
Taiwan president candidate Tsai

seeks stable relations with China
By Matthew Pennington
WASHINGTON Taiwans opposition

presidential candidate said that if she comes
to power in January elections, her government would have a responsibility to contribute to peace and stability in relations
with mainland China.
Tsai Ing-wen also had a few complimentary words on Wednesday for Chinas leader,
Xi Jinping, but she deflected knotty questions on whether she accepts the principle
of there being only one China. Beijing has
claimed sovereignty over Taiwan since the
Chinese civil war of the 1940s.
Tsai reassured U.S. officials during a visit

to Washington that victory for her
Democratic Progressive Party wont revive
tensions across the Taiwan Strait. China
regards Tsais party with suspicion because
of its traditional pro-independence leanings.
The United States, which has legal commitments to help Taiwan maintain the ability to defend itself, has welcomed improved
relations in the democratic islands relations with the communist-governed
Chinese mainland. The current Taiwanese
government has promoted economic cooperation with Beijing, reducing the potential
for conflict in a regional hotspot.

NEW YORK Encouraging economic news pushed stocks higher

Wednesday, although a slump in energy companies and utilities kept broader gains in check.
Stocks climbed from the start of trading on news that U.S. exports rose in
April and that hiring picked up in May.
The buying followed a rise in overseas
markets on hopes of a breakthrough in
Greeces talks with its creditors.
By the end of the day, seven of 10
industry groups in the Standard and
Poors 500 index rose. Utility stocks
dropped 1.4 percent and energy companies fell 0.7 percent, along with the
price of oil.
The S&P 500 edged up 4.47 points,
or 0.2 percent, to 2,114.07. The Dow
Jones industrial average rose 64.33
points, or 0. 4 percent, to end at
18, 076. 27. The Nasdaq composite
climbed 22.71 points, or 0.5 percent,
to 5,099.23.
The Federal Reserve said that a survey of business conditions showed
that manufacturing held steady or
increased in most parts of the country. A separate report from the
Institute for Supply Management
showed U. S. service firms grew in
May at the slowest pace in a year. But
any reading over 50 indicates that
services firms are expanding.

Investors are anxious for signs that
U.S. growth is picking up, but not so
much that the Fed will feel compelled
to raise interest rates too fast and send
stocks down sharply.
Colleen S. Supran, principal at
investment firm Bingham, Osborn &
Scarborough, said Wednesdays reports
seemed to strike a sort of Goldilocks
balance of hot, but not too hot.
Its not so robust, that anyone can
come out and say, The Fed has got to
raise rates, she said. Everything is
just good enough.
Utility companies were driven down
by a sharp rise in bond yields.
Investors like utility stocks for their
fat dividends, but bonds are becoming
more attractive as a source of income.
The yield on the 10-year Treasury note
rose on Wednesday to 2.37 percent,
the highest since November.
Energy stocks fell as the price of
benchmark U.S. oil slid nearly 3 percent. The two biggest decliners in the
S&P 500, Chesapeake Energy and
Diamond Offshore Drilling, each fell
by more than 3 percent.
Among big gainers for the day was
clothing maker G-III Apparel Group,
which reported earnings and revenue
that came in well ahead of what Wall
Street analysts were looking for. Its
stock surged $7.06, or 12 percent, to
$67.15.
Investors were also keeping an eye

on Greece. The countrys prime minister is trying to persuade creditors to
accept a proposal that could unlock
much-delayed bailout loans, but hes
running out of time.
Greece has to make a payment of
over 300 million euros ($333 million)
to the International Monetary Fund
this Friday, then make a series of other
payments in the coming months. If it
fails to repay past loans and get new
ones, Greece may have to exit from the
euro, a development that could roil the
19-country eurozone.
The consensus is that theyll meet
the June 5th payment ... but the concern is theyll struggle mightily to
meet their July payment, said JJ
Kinahan, chief strategist at TD
Ameritrade. The market is taking one
payment at a time, but this continues
to loom as a major point of concern.
In the U.S. hiring report, payroll
processor ADP said that companies
added 201,000 jobs last month, up
from just 165,000 in April. That raised
hopes for more good news on Friday,
when the government releases its
broader survey of the job market.
Benchmark U.S. crude fell $1.62 to
close at $59.64 a barrel in New York.
Brent crude, a benchmark for international oil used by many U.S. refineries, fell $1.69 to close at $63.80 in
London.
Greek leader defends bailout plan in talks with creditors

By Elena Becatoros and Raf Casert
BRUSSELS Greeces prime minister

Alexis Tsipras said early Thursday he found a
constructive approach during a showdown
with creditors in Brussels and all sides insisted talks to unlock crucial bailout loans and
save the country from financial disaster
would continue within days.
Even though Greece is running out of cash
and faces more debt repayments as soon as
Friday, Tsipras still found a lifeline to keep
the momentum for more negotiations going.
I believe that, in any case, agreement is
in sight but we need to conclude the discussions with a realistic point of view, Tsipras
said.
French President Francois Hollande said
ahead of the Brussels talks that end around
midnight Wednesday that the negotiations
were at least heading in the right direction:
We are some days, not to say some hours
away from a possible agreement.
Greece has been negotiating for four
months with its creditors over what budget
reforms it should make to get the 7.2 billion
euros ($8.1 billion) in loans that are left
over in its bailout fund. Wednesdays meetings are part of a string of high-level diplo-
matic efforts to bring the negotiations to a

successful end.
Asked whether he would be able to make
the next repayment to the International
Monetary Fund next Friday, Tsipras said:
Dont worry about it.
After his dinner with EU Commission
chief Jean-Claude Juncker, Tsipras stressed
the positive.
The Commission showed a constructive
intention to reach common ground, he said.
Discussions will continue in coming days.
At the same time, Tsipras maintained he
would continue to defend the poor and needy
in the face of calls for more austerity reforms
Google founder defends accident

records of self-driving cars
MOUNTAIN VIEW Google cofounder Sergey Brin says the Internet
company isnt releasing the accident
reports involving its self-driving cars
to protect the privacy of the other
motorists in the crashes.
Brins explanation came in response
to a question posed Wednesday by a
company critic during Googles annual
shareholders meeting.
Even if names were censored from
the records, Brin says the documents
filed with California regulators
wouldnt reveal anything different
from what Google previously disclosed about the self-driving cars
collisions in a summary posted
to unlock bailout funds.

Tsipras said proposals such as cutting
supplementary payments to people with
very low pensions, or increasing VAT on
power bills by ten percentage points are proposals that, naturally, lack any basis for us
to discuss them.
Tsipras also spoke by teleconference with
Hollande and German Chancellor Angela
Merkel ahead of his meeting with Juncker, a
Greek government official said.
The three agreed on the need for Greece to
have lower primary surpluses the budget
balance without taking into account debt
servicing.
Business briefs
online three weeks ago.
Brin says the total number of accidents climbed to 12 within the past
week when another of Googles selfdriving cars was rear-ended at a traffic
signal. Google says its self-driving
cars were at fault in just one of the accidents.

The relaxation follows a dress code
mandated last September that included
white or navy collared shirts with
khakis or black pants and a navy blue
vest. Wal-Mart is paying only for the
vest, igniting a flurry of complaints
from workers.

process not clean
By Terry Bernal
After a pair of blowout victories to start the
Joe DiMaggio baseball season, South City
was in need of some dramatics.
South City got precisely that with a 7-6
extra-inning victory over Burlingame
Wednesday night at Washington Park.
As the evening wore on, the wind started
picking up, as did the South City bats. And in
the top of the eighth inning, South Citys
Marvin Vargas delivered a two-run single that
proved the eventual game-winner.
[The wind] came from South City, South
City manager Brian Ghilarducci said. It came
down the Peninsula and helped us out a little
bit. Were kind of used to this weather.
South City (3-0) has now scored 37 runs
through three straight wins to start the season. Previously, South City defeated Daly
City 15-2 in last Wednesdays season opener,
then downed Millbrae 15-1 on Sunday.
Burlingame (3-1) had been on a roll as
well, entering play having won three straight
games to start the season. But South City prevailed in the battle of unbeatens while never
trailing in the game.
Theyre scrappy, Ghilarducci said of his
club. They keep fighting and dont give up.
South City led two times through the regulation seven innings. After a three-run rally
in the top of the first, Burlingame came back
to tie it in the third. Then in the fifth, both
teams put up two-run innings. The game
eventually went to extra innings deadlocked
at 5-5.
With South City right-hander Dante
Ordonez and Burlingame right-hander Gray
Goodman dueling through the late innings
though, Burlingames infield made a critical
error in the top of the eighth. And South City
pounced on the opportunity.
South City cleanup hitter Ramiro Gonzalez
led off the eighth with a four-pitch walk. But
after Goodman notched a three-pitch strikeout for the first out of the inning, the righthander was on the verge of escaping the jam
when he induced a tailor-made, double-play
grounder off the bat of Daniel Perez that went

South City cleanup hitter Ramiro Gonzalez was 2 for 3 with three RBIs and two runs scored
on his 18th birthday as his team topped Burlingame 7-6 in extra innings Wednesday.
The chairman of Football Federation

Australia says bidding for the 2022 World
Cup awarded to Qatar was not clean, explaining in an extraordinary open letter
Wednesday how he felt Australia never had a
chance to be given hosting rights.
The day after FIFA President Sepp Blatter
announced he was resigning his post and
would call a new election within nine
months, FFA chairman Frank Lowy said
world football might just be at the dawn of
a new era.
Australia went against the agreed position
of the Asian Football Confederation to support Blatter in last Fridays presidential
election and instead voted for Prince Ali Bin
Al-Hussein. The 79-year-old Blatter was
returned to a fifth term as president despite a
week dominated by arrests of top FIFA officials over corruption allegations.
And while the Asian
Football
Confederation was offering little comment
on Wednesday to Blatters surprise resignation, billionaire businessman Lowy, one of
Australias richest persons, was scathing in
his criticism of both FIFA and the bid
process for 2022.
Sepp Blatters resignation should open
the door to major reform. I say should
because FIFAs problems are deep-rooted and
tangled in a culture that has developed over
decades, Lowy said. It will take a united,
concerted effort by its football associations
to fix the mess.
Lowy said that since December, 2010
when Qatar was awarded the 2022 World Cup
and Australia received just one vote, I have
nursed a bitter grievance.

1974-75: A different The better team

Warriors team, a will win NBA title
different NBA era F
By John Horgan
DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT
Its been 40 long years since the Golden

State Warriors played for, and won, the NBA
title. They shockingly swept past the
Washington Bullets in four games in May of
1975.
The accomplishment, the teams only West
Coast crown, is regarded as one of the leagues
most stunning championship upsets. Now,
after a four-decade wait, they are back in the
Finals; they will face Cleveland in a best-ofseven series, beginning June 4 in Oakland.
The 2014-15 Golden State team is a genuine NBA power, sporting the best regular season record in the league at 67-15. Combined
with a post-season mark of 12-3, the Warriors
have an overall 79-18 record.
Having roared past New Orleans, Memphis
and Houston, they are favorites to capture the
NBA crown, in spite of LeBron James great-
ness and a Cavaliers roster that also features

Kyrie Irving, a gifted (but recently hobbled)
point guard who has been one of the leagues
best at that position.
Although there are some similarities with
this team and the Warriors of 40 seasons ago,
the differences are striking. For example:
With 18 teams in four divisions, split
between Eastern and Western conferences, the
1974-75 version of the NBA included playoffs
that had one best-of-three preliminary round
and three traditional best-of-seven rounds. So
most playoff teams automatically played in
conference seminals. The Warriors, who did
not make it into the playoffs the previous season with 44 wins, got past Seattle in the
semis, 4-2, then dispatched Chicago in a
memorable, hard-fought Western Conference
title matchup, 4-3. The deciding Game 7,
played in Oakland, was a dramatic, pulsepounding come-from-behind 83-79 Warrior
See WARRIORS, Page 16
ive or six weeks ago, I was at the dog

park to give Rolo his daily workout.
While there, one of the other dogpark regulars noticed I was wearing my
Golden State Warriors hat and proceeded to
tell me all the reasons he was worried about
the playoffs.
I told him then it was not the time to worry
about anything
other than injury. I
told him to simply
enjoy the rest of the
regular season as the
Warriors were putting
the nishing touches
on an epic, 67-win
campaign and a
Pacic Division
championship.
Now, however, is
the time to worry as
the Warriors prepare
to take on the Cleveland Cavaliers and
LeBron James in the NBA Finals.
As the regular-season wound down and the
playoffs loomed, I was worried about three

possible opponents: the San Antonio Spurs,
because they simply own the Warriors; the
Memphis Grizzlies and their twin towers and
Cleveland because of LeBron, knowing that
the only way Golden State would face the
Cavaliers was in the nals.
Now that scenario is upon us. Golden
States Steph Curry may be the reigning NBA
MVP, but I dont think you would get much
argument saying James is still the best player on the planet. James has already shown he
can carry a team to the nals, having done so
in 2007 when he and the Cavs lost to the
Spurs in the championship series.
Unlike 2007, the Cavaliers have a few
more pieces with whom to work specically point guard Kyrie Irving, who would be
the star of the team if not for King James.
The James-Irving combination is certainly
good enough to win the NBA championship.
But not this season. The 2014-15 season in
the Year of the Warriors and they will not
be derailed now.

Liriano deals as Pirates sweep Giants

By Janie McCauley
SAN FRANCISCO Jordy Mercer broke

a fifth-inning tie when he homered for the
second day in a row, Francisco Liriano
struck out six to win his second straight
decision and the Pittsburgh Pirates beat the
San Francisco Giants 5-2 on Wednesday for
a three-game sweep.
Liriano (3-4) allowed four hits while outdueling Tim Hudson (3-5), who also struck
out six over seven innings but lost his
fourth straight outing against the Pirates.
The two pitchers had the first hits of the
game after each retired the initial eight batters in order, Liriano with a single in the top
of the third and Hudson on a double in the
bottom half.
Pirates left fielder Jose Tabata fell backward after crashing hard into the wall trying
to catch Hudsons ball but stayed in the
game.
Four of Mercers 23 big league home runs
have come in 10 games at AT&T Park.
Jared Hughes pitched the eighth, then
pinch-hitter Jung Ho Kang hit a two-run
double in Pittsburghs three-run ninth.
Closer Mark Melancon finished for his
16th save after allowing Brandon
Crawfords RBI groundout.
Tabata hit a tying single in the fourth.
Mercer followed his home run with a ninthinning double, and Francisco Cervelli singled in a run.
Hudson, who has received 17 runs of support in 11 starts, took a ball off his right leg
on Mercers comebacker for the second out
of the third but stayed in the game.
The Giants lost their fifth straight game,
their longest skid since dropping eight

Gray mows down Detroit, As win 6-1

DETROIT No matter how badly things

are going for the Oakland Athletics, they
have a good feeling every fifth day.
Thats when Sonny Gray takes the mound,
and they usually have their best shot at a
win. After beating the Detroit Tigers 6-1 on
Wednesday night, the As are 7-5 when Gray
starts. While thats not fantastic, they are
15-28 when he doesnt.
We think weve got a good chance to win
when hes on the mound, and thats been
true since he got here, Oakland manager
Bob Melvin said. It says a lot to see the
kind of confidence he gives you when hes
out there.
Gray (7-2) had the Tigers beating the ball
into the ground all game, with Oaklands
outfielders only making one putout while
he was on the mound. He struck out seven
and allowed two singles and a walk.
I had a really good fastball tonight
both two-seam and four-seam and that
was getting a lot of weak contact, he said.
That was the goal against so many righthanded hitters get the sinker working
and get as many ground balls as I could.
Anibal Sanchez (3-7) allowed four runs,
five hits and four walks in seven innings.
After striking out 20 batters in his previous
two starts, he only had one against Oakland.
What can I say? I

thought it was a really
good game, he said.
Im going to give credit
to the other pitcher.
Sonny threw a really
good ball game and I just
missed a couple pitches.
In the second inning,
Oakland loaded the bases
Sonny Gray
on a double and two
walks, and Billy Burns took an inside pitch
the other way just inside the line for a threerun triple. Sanchez, though, wasnt going
to play what if about the balls landing
point.
I say thats baseball, he said. If I dont
give up two walks and a hit, it is a different
story.
The As made it 4-0 in the third on Josh
Reddicks eighth homer. Sanchez the
toughest starter to homer against in 201314 is on pace to allow 42 home runs this
season. That would tie Denny McLains
franchise record, set in 1966.
In the meantime, the Tigers couldnt get
anything going against Gray and showed
signs of frustration. After Anthony Gose
struck out to end the third, he threw a warmup ball into the ivy above the fence in center field. The ball fell back onto the field, so
Gose fired it out of the stadium and into an

right through the wickets of Burlingames
second baseman.
The error put runners at second and third.
And after a walk to Everardo Valdez to load the
bases, Vargas stepped to the plate. Hitting at
the bottom of the order, Vargas was 0 for 3 in
the game. But he was coming off a big performance in Sundays win over Millbrae in
which he went 2 for 2 with four RBIs, including a bases-loaded triple in the late innings.
Vargas delivered again Wednesday, shooting
a two-run single to center, scoring Gonzalez
and Perez to give South City the lead for good.
Weve got a great team here, Gonzalez

said. I think we can go really far if we keep
playing ball like this, keep persevering
through adversity. That team is a good team
and we beat them. We got some clutch hits
and everybody played well.
Gonzalez who celebrated his 18th birthday Wednesday came up big at the plate as
well, going 2 for 3 with three RBIs and two
runs scored.
The recent Sacred Heart Cathdral graduate
gave South City the lead in the first inning
with an RBI single to score Harley Torres.
Gonzalez later came around to score on the
second of two Burlingame errors in the
inning. Maligi Maluia then scored on a wild
pitch to make it 3-0.

came in the first inning on a straight steal of
home on an outstanding jump.
Then in the third inning with runners at the
corners, Keelean took advantage of a pickoff
throw to first base, immediately breaking for
the plate on the initial move to first base.
Alex Gumas later scored in the third on a
passed ball to tie it 3-3.
We try to be aggressive on the base paths
and see what happens, Burlingame manager
Rich Jauregui said. Kaleb does a good job
getting on base, bunting or swinging it. And
then hes aggressive on the base paths.
In the fifth, Gonzalez again gave South
City the lead. After a leadoff walk to Andrew
Pierotti and a one-out single by Jesus
Jimenez, Gonzalez scorched a two-run double
up the left-center gap to give his team a 5-3
advantage.
It was a curveball, the second curveball
they threw me in a row, Gonzalez said. He
left it a little up and I put a drive into it. It felt
pretty good.
Burlingame answered right back in the bottom of the frame though. Facing Ordonez,
Keelen sparked the rally with a one-out double. Gumas followed with a single to put runners at the corners. After Gumas stole second,
Goodman stroked a two-run single to left-center to tie it 5-5.
The team has been great, Jauregui said.
A good bunch of young kids wanting to
come out here and play the game and try to
play it the right way.
Burlingame produced a run in the bottom of
the eighth to make it interesting. Goodman
led off the frame with his third hit on the
night, a solid double to left-center. He
advanced to third on a wild pitch and score on
a sacrifice fly by Mitchel Swanson.
But Ordonez finished strong to close it out,
ultimately working five innings while allowing three runs on five hits and striking out
four to earn the win.

Lowy acknowledged Australia made mistakes
in its bid, including the hiring of Europeanbased consultants who ultimately proved less
than effective to say the least.
He also defended a $500,000 payment made
by Australia to the CONCACAF confederation
during the bidding process, ostensibly for funding of a feasibility study into a Centre of
Excellence in Trinidad and Tobago.
Lowy said subsequent inquiries found (CONCACAF president) Jack Warner had committed
fraud and misappropriated the funds and said
Australia only agreed to a smaller payment
rather than the $4 million that was requested.
We asked CONCACAF to give our money
back because it wasnt used for the purpose we
intended, and were advised by FIFA to wait until
the inquiries were complete, Lowy said. Those
inquiries are still ongoing.
We ran a clean bid and we are proud of that but
it wasnt a level playing field and therefore we
didnt win it. I will always be bitterly disappointed about the outcome.
Australias sports minister, Sussan Ley, said
in Canberra that Australia would not bid to host
the World Cup until the sports governing body
can be trusted with taxpayer funds.
Sport is ultimately about the participants,
fans and the love of the game, not individual
interests, and corruption of any form has no
place, Ley said. She would not comment on
whether Australia had any chance of recovering
the $40 million spent on its World Cup bid.
The AFC released a brief statement on
Wednesday about Blatters decision to stand
down, saying: The AFC is closely monitoring
the situation, and will discuss with its member
associations and sister confederations in order
to find the best way forward for both FIFA and
world football.

keep it to one, they had a chance.
We just got away from playing
smart defensive hockey and keeping pressure on them.
Both teams advanced to the
Final with Game 7 victories on the
road and welcomed having a short
break to get ready for the Final,
which finds the Blackhawks seeking a third NHL title in six years
and the Lightning trying to win
their first since 2004, second
overall.
Chicago has 19 players who
have made previous trips to the
Final, 14 of them from the team
that won the Cup two years ago.
That big-game experience is one
of the reasons many favor the
Blackhawks.
But the young Lightning didnt
show signs of jitters. They took
an early lead on Alex Killorns
eighth goal of the playoffs and
Bishop, who finished with 19
saves, made it stand until Tuevo
Teravainen and Antoine Vermette
scored for Chicago in 1:58 span in
the third period.
The Blackhawks have more
playoff wins than any team in the
NHL since the start of the 2009
postseason, so there was no reason to believe theyd get out of
character after failing to score
first. They patiently went about
their business, gradually applying
more pressure on Bishop.

win that vaulted them into the meeting with
Washington.
The Warriors, who had traded away one of
their standouts, center Nate Thurmond, to
Chicago six weeks prior to the start of the season, achieved the best record in the West; but
they had only the fourth-best regular-season
NBA mark that year, 48-34. Boston and
Washington both won 60 games in the Eastern
Conference; Buffalo, also in the East, won 49.
The general consensus was that the East was
signicantly stronger than the West. The
experts gave the Warriors, who routinely played
nine or 10 players per game, little chance
against the Eastern winner. The Bullets had
defeated the Warriors in three of four regular-season games.
The Oakland Arena was not available for the
rst two Finals games due to a scheduling conict with, of all things, the Ice Capades. So
LOUNGE
It wont be without adversity, however. By
no means do I see the Warriors winning this
series going away. No sweep is in the cards.
But there is not a more talented, deeper, better coached team than the Warriors were this
season.
It may not be the same next year but, for
this one magical year, the Warriors have
proven to be the best team in the NBA to
this point. To be considered among the best
single-season teams of all time, they need to
SPORTS
THE DAILY JOURNAL
Golden State had to play at the aging, drafty

Cow Palace in Daly City. In another oddity,
although the Bullets had home-court advantage,
the title series began with just a single game on
the East Coast. Games 2 and 3 were at the Cow
Palace. By the time the series headed back to
Washington, D.C., the Bullets were already
down 3-0. They could not recover. The June 4
game in Oakland will be the Warriors rst
Finals appearance on that oor ever.
The NBAs popularity wasnt close to what it
is today and it wasnt nearly the constant television presence it has become. There was no cable
and certainly no Internet. The average players salary was about $90,000. Today, fueled
mainly by television revenues, its close to $4
million.
A number of professional basketball stars
didnt play in the NBA 40 years ago; they were
part of the upstart, rival 10-team American
Basketball Association (ABA). People like
George Gervin, Julius Erving, Moses Malone,
George McGinnis, Dan Issel and others labored
in the younger and more obscure (and nancially-challenged) ABA. Its eventual merger with
the NBA (only four ABA teams joined the older
league) was still two years away.

The Warriors head coach, Al Attles, was not
on the bench as Game 4 versus Washington
unfolded. Early on, he was thrown out of the
contest by the referees because he had come
onto the court to challenge the Bullets Mike
Riordan who had hammered high-scoring
Warrior forward Rick Barry in an egregious act
that appeared to be an attempt to force a ght
and, perhaps, Barrys ejection. For most of the
game, Attles lone assistant, Joe Roberts,
coached the team. The series also highlighted
two African-American head coaches (K.C. Jones
of the Bullets was the other) facing each other
for the rst time for a championship in a major
U.S. professional sport.
The Warriors, brought to San Francisco in
1962 by media businessman Franklin Mieuli
and 31 other local investors for the princely
sum of $850,000, drew an average of 8,800 customers per game in 1974-75. For most of the
regular season, there were plenty of available
seats.
Sadly, four members of that storied Warriors
title team Steve Bracey, Derrek Dickey,
Charles Johnson (from Sequoia High School)
and Phil Smith have passed away; all of them

were in their 50s when they died.
The year after their unanticipated championship run, the Warriors produced what was,
until now, their best regular-season record: 5923. Their hopes of a title repeat were dashed in
the Western Conference Finals, 4-3, by an
underdog, 42-win Phoenix team.
NBA 1974-75 Finals scores: Warriors 101,
Bullets 95; Warriors 92, Bullets 91; Warriors
109, Bullets 101; Warriors 96, Bullets 95.
Golden States 1974-75 Finals roster: Rick
Barry, Keith Wilkes, Butch Beard, Charles
Johnson, Clifford Ray, Jeff Mullins, Phil
Smith, George Johnson, Derrek Dickey, Bill
Bridges, Charles Dudley, Steve Bracey.

seal the deal with a NBA title.

While Currys offense will factor heavily
into the Warriors success, Golden State will
win this series with defense. If they keep the
Cavaliers under 100 points, the Warriors win
the game. Its as simple as that to me.
Offensively, Golden State needs to avoid
the slow starts that have plagued it at times
during the playoffs. A return to All-Star form
by Klay Thompson will go a long way in
helping them get off to a hot start, but it
remains to be seen if he is fully functional
following his concussion suffered last week
in the series-clinching win over Houston.
If they come out and are ring on all cylinders from the beginning of the game, no one
is beating them.
Obviously the biggest question is how the

Warriors deal with James. He torched them
for 42 points, 11 rebounds and ve assists in
his only regular-season meeting against
Golden State Feb. 23, a 113-99 Cleveland
win.
The difference in that game, however, was
not LeBron going off. It was Irving going
for 24 and a now-injured Kevin Love chipping in 16. When the rest of the Cavaliers
are on their game, theyre a tough beat.
But if LeBron is dominating the ball offensively that means the rest of the team isnt
getting involved and Im pretty sure the
Warriors can beat James in a game of 5-on-1.
In other words, James cant beat the
Warriors, literally, by himself.
Obviously, Im being overly simplistic

with this breakdown. Just as silly as it is for
people to say the Warriors are just a one-man
team (Curry), its just as naive to say
Cleveland is just LeBron James. These are
two teams who have proven to be the best
this season and I dont expect either to go
down quietly. In the end, however, I believe
the Warriors are the better team and ultimately will be the ones holding the trophy at the
end. In seven games.

Coming up with a furniture plan that works

By Melissa Rayworth
Sometimes the way to improve a room isnt to buy new

furniture: Its to rearrange pieces you already own.
Interior designers can spend hours creating the best furniture plan for a room, balancing practical considerations and
creative risk-taking.
Changing up the placement of your furniture can make a
massive difference, says designer Brian Patrick Flynn,
founder of Flynnside Out Productions. Adding, subtracting
or relocating furniture, he says, affects how natural light
plays in the space and also how frequently the room gets
used. By simply adding a bench to a wall, a room can
become more of a hangout. Removing a few pieces to create more space can make it feel a bit more casual and informal.
How do professionals map out a furniture plan, choosing
the best location for each item? Flynn and two other interior designers Dan Faires, host of HGTVs DanMade, and
Betsy Burnham of the California-based design firm
Burnham Design share advice:
ANALYZE YOUR SPACE

Begin by deciding how the room will be used, Burnham
says. Is it a living room used mainly for TV watching or
socializing? Does the space have two roles, such as a home
office that doubles as a guest room? Or is it a playroom,
where the priority is open space and maximum storage?
In a new home, knowing the answer can take time. Its
important to live in a space for a few weeks or months
before assigning it a space plan so that you truly get a sense
for how youll use it, Flynn says. Then decide on your
seating capacity and find a way to maximize it without sacrificing visual balance.
Consider any quirks: Are there lots of windows or doors?
Unique architectural items such as a fireplace or beautiful
windows with a view? A particular piece of furniture or art
that you want visitors to notice?
Depending on the answers, Flynn likes to choose one
standout feature and then arrange furniture in a way that
highlights it.
Also, says Burnham, lighting can direct a furniture
plan. Is there a lot of natural light or will you need plenty
of lamps? Are there built-in sconces or a central chandelier?
Floating furniture in the middle of the room helps highlight architectural features and also aids in proper movement
throughout the space.

MEASURE AND DRAW

Even if youve got a general plan in mind, Faires suggests
measuring the space and creating a scaled drawing with
exact measurements of every piece youre planning to
include. (You can find a template on Burnhams website,
www.instantspacedesign.com .)
Dont skimp on empty space. I always allow a minimum
of 18 inches between sofas and coffee tables, Faires says,
and 3 to 5 feet for walk spaces. The flow and negative
space in a room is as important as the overall function and
the furniture because it makes the space feel more open,
uncluttered and inviting.
Consider the size and placement of rugs. I cannot imagine designing a living-room space with a rug any smaller

Heathcote said the citys response on

Acacia was exemplary, in the ability of the
crew to address the issue and correct it in a
prompt fashion.
We got the crews on it quick and got it
fixed quick, he said.
He said he was unsure of what caused the
pipe to burst.
Despite the age of the pipes, breaks are
not a very frequent incident in Burlingame,
said Heathcote.
It is not a common occurrence, he said.
But does it happen? Yes.
Art Morimoto, assistant public works
director,
praised the commitment
Burlingame has shown in allocating
resources to fixing its system maintenance.
Its an older city with older infrastructure but the city has been very proactive in
investing money to take care of that, he

said.
Nagel said the city will continue to spend
money on addressing its infrastructure
issues.
We will continue plugging away at fixing this very old system, she said.
The water main break on Acacia was the
second in recent weeks, as crews were dispatched to fix another issue that occurred
on the 700 block of Vernon Way
Wednesday, May 20.
Despite the existing issues involved
with aging infrastructure, Nagel said the
issues in Burlingame are not as severe as
they have been in the past.
I think weve come a long way, and
there are always more problems to solve,
she said.
Goldman said the city needs to continue
prioritizing the most pressing needs in the

capital improvement schedule, due to limited resources, and an inability to afford
addressing all the fixes simultaneously.
Although we do not have sufficient
funding to tackle all of the infrastructure
needs at once, we are systematically
addressing the issues with the monies that
we have, she said.
And as the aging pipes and projects are
fixed, Nagel said many residents are not
aware of the problems that are prevented
by the ongoing effort to correct existing
issues.
What people dont see are the problems
that dont occur because of the improvements that have been made, she said.
middle class residents have remained stagnant and that more people are living in
overcrowded conditions or leaving the
county altogether because of the housing
crisis, which has seen rents rise in the county by 46 percent in the past four years to
$2,700 a month for a two-bedroom apartment.
The budget for next year calls for spending $11 million on affordable housing with
an emphasis on supporting the homeless,
mentally ill, disabled, foster youth and

those in recovery.
This budget, based on board direction,
invests in the future of our county and in so
doing envisages a community that is safer,
healthier and more prosperous for everyone, Maltbie wrote in a statement. By
investing in affordable housing, foster care
and child care, we can make this a better
community and keep the American Dream
alive in San Mateo County.
The county works in two-year budget
cycles. The FY 2014-15 budget, which ends
this month, was at $2.2 billion.
The budget for FY 2016-17 is currently
estimated at $2.3 billion.
Negotiated increases to salaries and bene-
fits account for $70 million of the budget.

The county is committing $19.5 million
a year toward paying down pension obligations. The budget also calls for spending $8
million toward improving the about 315
miles of road the county oversees.
Spending for the countys two biggest
divisions, criminal and health, will be
about the same over the next two years.
The budget includes $789 million in
spending over the next two years for criminal justice departments representing a 9.5
percent increase over the prior budget.
Criminal justice includes the Sheriffs
Office.
The Health System budget over the same
period will be approximately $787 million.
The countys workforce is approximately

5,400.
Near the end of Maltbies budget message,
he writes: If the promise of the American
Dream cant be realized in San Mateo
County one of the wealthiest counties in
the country, during an unprecedented economic boom, with people known for their
innovation and entrepreneur skills where
can it be realized?
FURNITURE
ally separating each zone, use area rugs in

coordinating colors with slightly different
textures and patterns, Flynn says.
KNOW THE RULES, THEN

CONSIDER BREAKING THEM
lamps, it instantly becomes more inviting

and less closed off.
Also, while some symmetry is important
to ground a furniture plan, Burnham says,
mixing in a little asymmetry makes for a
much more interesting room.
If she flanks a sofa with matching end
tables and table lamps, we may balance the
grouping with mismatched chairs and a
standing lamp.
Remember, you dont have to place furniture along walls.
Floating furniture in the middle of the
room helps highlight architectural features
and also aids in proper movement throughout the space, Flynn says.
Placing furniture away from the walls also
works well in spaces that have lots of
doors, or soaring windows that shouldnt be

obstructed.
And not every living room needs a sofa.
Burnham suggests trying an unusual layout, like a living room with four lounge
chairs around a center coffee table instead of
the expected sofa.
Use unexpected pieces, like a library
table stacked with books in a wide hallway,
or two area rugs instead of one to define
spaces within a bedroom, she says.
And remember: Youre not obligated to
use everything youve got.
Curate and edit down your existing
pieces, Faires says, keeping the items

complete.
The need for water pipe maintenance runs
concurrent to other required projects, such
as streets and sidewalk fixes, improvements to city parks and buildings, addressing the sanitary sewer system and a variety
of other services, said Goldman.
These are the problems that come with a
very old infrastructure, said Mayor Terry
Nagel.
The city has addressed problem areas as
they present themselves, and prioritized

than an 8-by-10, Faires says. The rug is

meant to unify the entire space and connect
furniture pieces together, so a good rule of
thumb is that at least the front legs of any
sofas or chairs in the living room should be
on the rug. For a larger area rug, allow at
least 18 inches from the edge of the rug to
the wall.
In very large rooms or loft spaces, rugs

Some rules are important, says Flynn. For

instance, leave at least 36 inches of open
space between the back of a dining chair and
a nearby sideboard to allow for proper traffic flow.
But plenty of other rules can be broken or
modernized.
For example, its not ideal to enter a living room and be staring at the back of a
sofa, Flynn says. But if you flank the

Helping pollinators, one city flowerpot at a time

By Dean Fosdick
nets. Bees seem to like bright whites and

yellows, while butterflies appear drawn to
reds and purples.
Even a little effort a potted plant, say,

on an apartment balcony can mean a lot
when trying to help restore declining pollinator populations like bees, bats, and butterflies.
Every contribution is worthwhile, said
Victoria Wojcik, research director for the
Pollinator Partnership in Toronto, Ontario.
Youre making a better environment for
pollinators, no matter how small.
Butterflies and other pollinators dont
need large areas for foraging but they do
need a flower, she said.
A planter on a balcony, even on the 30th
floor they will find it and visit it, she
said. If people do this all over the city, it
will definitely help.
Pollination is needed by at least 80 percent of the worlds crop species. Wind does
the job for numerous plants, notably grasses, while many others are served by a variety of animal pollinators.
Both sides benefit. Wildlife feed on the
pollen and flower syrup while helping their
plant partners reproduce.
But changing land use, viruses and pesticides are being blamed for massive pollinator losses especially among the 4,000
native bee species in the United States and
the thousands of managed stocks of nonnative honeybees.
Enter pollinator planting.
Native plants attract native pollinator
species, said Kari Houle, an extension educator with the University of Illinois.
Know which are suitable for your growing
zone. Find a beneficial fit.
More tips for

attracting pollinators to pots:
Certain flower colors are pollinator magnets. Bees seem to like bright whites and yellows,
while butterflies appear drawn to reds and purples.
She suggests a number of pollinatorfriendly annuals for container use: alyssum,
cleome, flax, lantana, snapdragon and zinnia, among them.
Select different flower sizes and shapes to
match pollinator-feeding habits.
Butterflies like places to sit, Wojcik

said. Hummingbirds like bugle-shaped
plants. Fragrant, sweet-smelling flowers
attract night-flying creatures like bats and
moths.
Certain flower colors are pollinator mag-
Use succession planting to provide

pollen and nectar from early spring to late
fall. Spring is an important season especially for overwintering honeybees
because their food stocks of honey are low,
and spring-blooming flowers are harder to
find. That could mean tolerating dandelions, a favorite pollen source.
Place containers in full sun and shelter
them from high winds. Include water in the
menu by adding a birdbath or dripping
faucet.
Provide host plants like milkweed that
are popular with Monarch butterfly larvae.
Stop using pesticides. You may see a
little damage to some of your plants, but
eliminating chemicals will greatly benefit
pollinators, Wojcik said.
Choose double-duty plants, like colorful
edibles. Herbs are a big one, especially
rosemary and chives, Wojcik said.
Fruit trees can be grown in patio
planters but their production is limited. Get
them into the ground before they become
root-bound.
Blueberries and raspberries deliver sizable crops in containers but need protection
from killing frosts in winter.
Vegetables do extremely well in pots,
particularly cucumbers and tomatoes,
Wojcik said. Bumblebees love (gathering
pollen from) tomatoes. Theyre uniquely
adapted to that.

HOIST
commercial fishing activity, as well as
manages Oyster Point Marina/Park in
South San Francisco. The district and
its Board of Commissioners were the
focus of a scathing civil grand jury
report and were recently reviewed by
the
Local
Agency
Formation
Commission which recommended it be
dissolved and its duties on the coast
absorbed by the county.
As one of three leaseholders who
operate hoists at the harbor, Fortado
alone has two lifts and secured a prime
spot with the harbormasters approval
in April 2014. But complaints from
competitors and local fishermen who
questioned why they werent consulted
or offered a similar advantage drew
concerns from district officials,
specifically Commissioner Sabrina
Brennan.
Brennan contacted the California
Coastal Commission to inquire
whether Fortado received permits
before installing the hoist and indicated fishermen where upset and raising
safety concerns, according to the lawsuit.
Fortado questions whether a permit
was ever required as no one has been
able to authenticate one for the other
three hoists that have long been located on the pier, but nonetheless applied
to the Coastal Commission which
granted him a waiver, according to the
lawsuit.
But further dispute from opposition
PROJECT
room units.
The developer, Edwin Law with
Pinefino, has agreed to set six units
aside to be available at below market
rates for tenants who meet the threshold for very low income, low income
and moderate income.
The proposed location of the development is in line with the citys
vision of building transit-oriented
housing, as it currently lies less than a
mile from the Caltrain station, and
will be even closer when the stations
relocation project is completed to
bring it to the other side of Highway
101.
The effort to develop more than
1,000 dense, centrally located, transitoriented residential units is part of the
citys recently adopted downtown specific plan, which aims at redesigning
the region on and around Grand
Avenue, near the new Caltrain station.
The outward architectural design of
ultimately
led
the
Coastal
Commission to withdraw its approval
and district officials narrowly voted
Fortado remove it by July 2, according
to the lawsuit.
The [Coastal Commission] was prepared to issue Three Captains a waiver
on two separate occasions and would
have done so but for Brennans and the
commissions interference, according
to the lawsuit.
Brennan disagrees, arguing representatives of a local fishing association expressed concerns to the Coastal
Commission.
In a letter to the Coastal
Commission, the Half Moon Bay
Seafood Marketing Association,
which represents a group of fishermen,
opposed the installation of the hoist
they worry is inconveniently located
and negatively impacts operations.
We believe that changes to this
infrastructure without adequate study
could be economically damaging,
according to the associations letter.
Specifically, the installation of a new
hoist in a location that has not previously supported offloading activity
will have an indisputable impact on
traffic patterns on the pier and could
delay offloads for vessels.
Coastal Commission staff met with
the fishermen before they decided to
remove the waiver from the agenda of
an upcoming meeting, Brennan said.
When I arrived for my meeting in
the afternoon, I was informed by
Coastal Commission staff that a decision had already been made, Brennan
wrote in an email. I made it clear that
I was not representing the views of the
Harbor Commission in my communi-
cations with Coastal Commission

staff.
Fortado believes otherwise and
alleges that Brennan used her position as a commission member to convince the [Coastal Commission] to
rescind its waiver, according to the
lawsuit.
The districts attorney said he could
not comment on pending litigation
and attorneys representing Fortado
did not respond to requests for comment.
Commissioner Robert Bernardo said
he voted against forcing Fortado to
move the hoist because he felt the district is bound by the terms of their
lease with the local fishmonger.
The commercial fishing industry is
extremely competitive and unfortunately, Bernardo said hes not surprised the matter has led to litigation.
Bernardo, who made a motion for a
mid-year reorganization that led to
Brennan to stepping down as board
president, said he fears the suit is
another unfortunate example of inappropriate meddling.
Once again, its a hit against the
whole district and it affects all of us
and this is going to cost us, our legal
bills are already skyrocketing,
Bernardo said. Were all trying to put
this district back on track and its just
getting derailed left and right. And Im
at my wits end here. Were doing
everything we can to make everything
right and these legacy remnants of
mistakes keep coming back.
the modern-looking building at 211

Airport Blvd., proposes to use traditional materials such as stucco and siding in a contemporary fashion, which
has drawn criticism from some city officials who have reviewed the project.
City staff has worked with the applicant to develop a more traditional
looking project too, which does not
feature such pronounced character elements, and more simple mix of colors
and materials, according to a city
report.
Further criticism has come from residents living in the neighborhood near
the project who have expressed concerns that the building is too tall, but
members of the city staff who are recommending
the
Planning
Commission approve the project say
the height of the development is
allowable under city regulations,
according to the report.
The project joins the more than 100
apartments, townhomes and condominiums that have come before the
City Council or Planning Commission
for approval since the beginning of
the year.
Last month, planning commission-
ers approved 80 residential units to be

built at two separate buildings located
downtown within a mile of each other
at 255 Cypress Ave. and 488 Linden
Ave.
In February, the City Council
approved building a 35-unit housing
project at 1256 Mission Road, on 1.7
acres of land near the BART station,
which will offer a mixture of condominiums and single-family homes for
purchase.
And in April, the Sares Regis Group
purchased 2.2 acres of land on Airport
Boulevard near the Caltrain station
which is intended to be used to build
262 housing units in high-rise buildings.
Later during the June 4 meeting,
commissioners will hear a proposal to
move ahead with the construction of
the second leg of the Centennial
Towers project, which could house
roughly more than 300 high-end condominiums near the foot of San Bruno
Mountain.
The Planning Commission meets
Thursday, June 4, in the Municipal
Services Building, 33 Arroyo Drive.
The meeting begins at 7 p.m.

U.S. official: Airstrikes

killed 10K IS fighters
By Bassem Mroue
BEIRUT A U.S. official said

Wednesday that more than 10,000
Islamic State fighters have been
killed by American-led airstrikes in
Iraq and Syria in nine months, offering a body count for a campaign that
has yet to blunt their advance.
Deputy Secretary of State Tony
Blinkens figure came after a Paris
conference on how to stop the
extremists ended without any new
strategy to halt their campaign. It
also comes months after the
Pentagon dismissed such counts as
simply not a relevant figure in
the fight against the Islamic State
group.
Meanwhile, the Islamic State
group launched a major attack on
the predominantly Kurdish city of
Hassakeh in northeastern Syria,
according to activists and Syrian
state media.
Speaking Wednesday to France
Inter Radio a day after the Paris con-
ference, Blinken said the airstrikes

have been effective.
We have seen enormous losses
for Daesh, Blinken said, using an
Arabic acronym for the group.
More than 10,000 since the
beginning of this campaign. That
will end up having an effect.
Blinken did not offer any figure
for civilian casualties.
In September, the CIA said that
Islamic State group has up to
31,500 fighters, meaning that
could represent a loss of a third of
its forces. Despite that, the extremists continue to attract more recruits
from around the world who come to
fight with the group to expand its
self-declared caliphate in Syria and
Iraq.
Its not clear why Blinken
offered the figure, as the U.S. military in conflicts since the
Vietnam War has been either hesitant or discounted such figures as
indicators of success. Adm. John
Kirby, a Pentagon spokesman,
declined to offer them in January
REUTERS FILE PHOTO
Smoke rises after airstrikes in Erbeen in the eastern Damascus suburb of Ghouta, Syria.
when asked by a reporter.
The less of these guys that are
out there, certainly thats the better,
but the goal is to degrade and
destroy their capabilities, Kirby
said at the time. He added: Its simply not a relevant figure.
White House spokesman Josh
Earnest, later asked about Blinkens
figure, said he had no reason to

believe the number was inaccurate,
saying 1,000 Islamic State fighters
were killed in the fight for the
Syrian border town of Kobani
alone.
Meanwhile Wednesday, the
Islamic State group targeted
Hassakeh in an apparent attempt to
reverse some of the advances made

recently by Kurdish fighters in the
northeastern Syrian province.
Kurdish fighters have captured
dozens of towns and villages there
with the help of U.S.-led airstrikes
and are getting close to Tel Abyad, a
major Islamic State-held border
town near Turkey.
Ukraine battle tests cease-fire to breaking point

By Peter Leonard
KIEV, Ukraine A major battle

erupted Wednesday on the western
edge of the main separatist rebel
stronghold in eastern Ukraine,
leaving more than a dozen dead
and threatening to tip the country
back into full-blown war.
Rebels in the city of Donetsk
reported 15 dead between civilians

and combatants in territory under
their control.
The Ukrainian Interior Ministry
said at least one person was killed
in Marinka, the government-held
town where fighting was centered.
Ukrainian presidential adviser
Yury Biryukov cited the General
Staff as saying three Ukrainian
soldiers died in combat and that
another 30 were wounded.

Each side is blaming the other
for sparking this round of unrest.
Ukraines General Staff said in a
statement that rebels deployed
around 1,000 fighters and dozens
of tanks and self-propelled
artillery systems in a major offensive that started before dawn.
The statement said the attack
was a flagrant violation of a
February cease-fire agreement.

The head of the separatist armed
forces, Vladimir Kononov, said
his fighters had engaged only in
defense measures after an all-out
assault by the Ukrainian army.
At around 03:45 a. m. , the
Ukrainian side carried out a provocation by shelling our positions
practically along our entire
