Renter protection talk exposes community rift


Landlord and tenant tensions flare over eviction regulation
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

A meeting intended to discuss potential


ways to relieve the burden on Burlingame
renters turned into a debate over the merits
of an ordinance guaranteeing eviction protections for tenants during a City Council
study session.
In an effort to combat a growing local

Terry Nagel

housing crisis, Mayor


Terry Nagel called a special meeting Monday,
July 13, which was
designed as an opportunity for officials to develop
strategies to aid residents
faced with an escalating
cost of living.
What ensued though

was a clash between property owners, apartment management representatives and


advocates for renters over whether the city
should consider instituting an ordinance
which would regulate the ability of
landowners to evict tenants.
In a memo authored by Nagel circulated
prior to the meeting, a tenant protection
ordinance was identified as a possible means
of defending renters against landlords.

The ordinance, commonly referred to as a


just cause eviction measure, could impose
such restrictions as forbidding land owners
from changing the terms of a lease more
than once a year, requiring landlords to give
renters more than 60 day notice before
evicting them, protecting extremely ill tenants from losing their homes and requiring

City encouraging in-law units


Half Moon Bay offers amnesty for illegally constructed dwellings
By Samantha Weigel
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

After nearly five years of working with


state environmental officials while trying to
promote more housing options, Half Moon
Bay officials have announced it is encouraging the construction of secondary units and
offering an amnesty period for certain illegally constructed dwellings.
Although the state Legislature has certain
regulations concerning secondary units, also
called in-law or granny units, cities can
implement local zoning codes that impact
what one can construct on their properties.
After working with the Coastal
Commission to update its zoning ordinances,
Half Moon Bay officials were pleased to publicize its now easier to construct second units
of up to 700 square feet on certain properties
at least 5,000 square feet or larger.
As a city with fewer rental options that others along the Peninsula, Mayor Marina Fraser
said tasteful secondary units that conform
with the existing main house help to broaden
Half Moon Bays housing stock.
Right now, with our inventory and just the
value placed on living on the coastside, its
getting more and more expensive and secondary units would help, Fraser said. We dont
have a lot of rentals, theres a couple of areas
where theres apartments or condos, but really, its mostly single-family residences. With

land being so valuable in the Bay Area and the
county and especially here on the coast, when
people are building, theyre trying to maximize what they can build.
Secondary units have also been viewed as a
vital source of more affordable housing
options, particularly for seniors or older
folks who may want to remain in their community but no longer need to live in a larger
home, Fraser said.
The amnesty period, which runs through
Jan. 8, 2016, is also an important component to the new rules as it allows property
owners to ensure their secondary units are
safe, up to code and can be fully insured,
Fraser said.
The secondary units must provide at least
one parking space on site, be no more than
two stories, have the owner living on the
property and blend with the main unit.
Half Moon Bay first sought to ease property owners ability to construct either attached
or detached units while updating its housing
element in 2010 a state-mandated document whereby a city must show it can accommodate future housing needs.
Because the city is located in the coastal

zone, it took several years before receiving


approval for the code amendments from the
California Coastal Commission, said the
citys Planning Manager Bruce Ambo.
Councilwoman Debbie Ruddock said she
supports the changes, but is concerned there
may have been a miscommunication about
whether secondary units are subject to the
citys Measure D requirements. Passed in
1999, Measure D was a citizens referendum
that limits population growth in Half Moon
Bay to 1 percent per year, Ruddock said.
Although state officials have indicated secondary units cannot be considered an increase
in density, the city has opted to require
Measure D permits for now. It can issue up to
74 of the approximately $141 permits that
cover residential developments however,
only about 25 requests were made last year,
Ambo said.
Ruddock agreed she didnt think the permits
would dissuade property owners from constructing the in-law units, as theres a surplus
in allocations.
Theres actually good reason to help facilitate second dwelling units, Ruddock said.
People are taking care of their parents, kids
are staying at home longer; I think theres
many good reasons to help people build
these.

Man charged in California


kidnapping had good resume
By Sudhin Thanawala
and Janie Har
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO Matthew


Muller had a resume built for success
a U.S. Marine veteran, Harvard Law
School graduate and member of the
California bar.
But his bright future began to unravel over the past several years, when he
was fired from his job as an immigration attorney, filed for bankruptcy and
lost his law license over allegations
that he took a $1,250 advance from a
client then failed to file a green card
application.
This week, federal authorities
charged Muller with kidnapping
Denise Huskins, whose report to police
about her abduction in March in Vallejo
was initially dismissed as a hoax.
Muller, 38, of Orangevale, a
Sacramento suburb, is also accused of

trying to rob two people while they


slept in June and assaulting one of
them. He had been suspected in another
robbery in 2009.
This is just a shock, said Bruce Day
of San Mateo, whose daughter, Erin, is
married to Mullers stepbrother.
Day recalled meeting Muller once
about four years ago at his daughters
house for Christmas and said he was
engaging and seemed like a very nice
young man.
Federal prosecutors charged Muller
with the kidnapping of Huskins after
authorities determined his arrest in the
attempted robbery
in
Dublin,
California, had similarities to the
abduction, the FBI said in an affidavit
unsealed Monday.
Mullers attorney, Thomas Johnson,
has said his client suffers from bipolar
disorder and will plead not guilty to the
kidnapping charge. He has already
entered that plea to the attempted rob-

bery and assault charges, according to


Johnson.
A July 1 search of a storage unit in
Vallejo linked to Muller by federal
authorities turned up several drones, a
4-channel wireless video camera and
pliers with black duct tape on the handle
The kidnapping charge came even
though Vallejo police initially discounted the account by Huskins and her
boyfriend, Aaron Quinn.
Quinn reported that kidnappers
broke into the couples home on March
23, abducted Huskins and demanded
$8,500. His lawyers have said he
awoke to a bright light in his face, and
that two kidnappers bound and drugged
him.
Huskins, 29, turned up safe two days
later in her hometown of Huntington
Beach, where she says she was dropped
off. She showed up hours before the
ransom was due.

South San Francisco police officers arrested a 21-yearold woman on suspicion of drunk driving early Sunday
morning, according to police.
South San Francisco resident Mariah Pearson, 21, was

Pearson was traveling north on Tipperary Avenue in
South San Francisco when she veered to the left, striking

Police determined Pearson to be driving under the influence of alcohol and booked her into the San Mateo

States gas prices


jump 36 cents in week
California s gas prices are the highest for a state in the
U.S., according to a report released Tuesday by the AAA.
The states average gas price is $3.80 per gallon, up 36
cents in one week and well above the national average of
$2.78, AAA officials said.
Gas prices in the Bay Area are currently estimated at an
average price of $3.52 per gallon, down one cent from
AAA s last report in June.
San Francisco has a cost of $3.62 per gallon of unleaded gasoline, while Oakland and San Jose are not far
behind at averages of $3.52 and $3.50 per gallon, respectively, according to the AAA. The recent surge in prices
statewide has drawn the attention of the California
Energy Commission, which is investigating the spike,
AAA officials said.
AAA officials speculated that potential causes of the
spike in gas prices could be higher-than-expected demand
for gasoline, resulting in significant decreases in supply,
and distribution systems being unable to keep up.
According to AAA, high gas prices are expected to continue in the state until supply issues are resolved.

Lawmakers reject bill to


disclose construction settlements
SACRAMENTO California lawmakers want to take
more time considering a proposal crafted in response to a
deadly balcony collapse in Berkeley.
The Assembly Business and Professions Committee on
Tuesday rejected a bill that would have required construction companies to disclose felony convictions and settlements to state regulators over construction defects.
SB465, authored by Democratic Sens. Jerry Hill of San
Mateo and Loni Hancock of Oakland, failed on a 7-3 vote.
It becomes a two-year bill, allowing backers more time to
refine their proposal.
Many committee members supported the bills intent.
Yet they worried about requiring a state agency to collect
settlement data without understanding how it would be
used in enforcement.
Six people were killed and seven others were hospitalized last month when the apartment balcony collapsed
during a birthday party.

Spacecraft achieves flyby, then calls home


By Marcia Dunn
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. NASAs New


Horizons spacecraft got humanitys first upclose look at Pluto on Tuesday, sending
word of its triumph across 3 billion miles to
scientists waiting breathlessly back home.
Confirmation of mission success came 13
hours after the actual flyby and, after a day
of both jubilation and tension, allowed the
New Horizons team to finally celebrate in
full force.
Early indications had been encouraging,
and a cheering, flag-waving celebration
swept over the mission operations center in
Maryland at the time of closest approach
Tuesday morning. But until New Horizons
phoned home Tuesday night, there was no
guarantee the spacecraft had buzzed the
small, icy, faraway but no longer
unknown world.
The unprecedented encounter was the last
stop on NASAs grand tour of the planets
over the past half-century. New Horizons
journey began 9 1/2 years ago, back when
Pluto was still considered a full-fledged
planet.
This is truly a hallmark in human history, said John Grunsfeld, NASAs science
mission chief. Its been an incredible voyage.
According to NASA, the spacecraft the
size of a baby grand piano swept to within
7,700 miles of Pluto at 31,000 mph. It was
programmed to then go past the dwarf planet and begin studying its far side.
To commemorate the moment of closest
approach, scientists released the best picture yet of Pluto, taken on the eve of the
flyby.
Even better images will start raining

Anti-Airbnb measure
qualifies for San Francisco ballot
SAN FRANCISCO A proposal to strictly curtail short-term home rentals in San
Francisco has qualified for the Nov. 3 ballot.
The ballot measure limits home-shares to
75 nights a year and requires hosting platforms, such as Airbnb, to list only units that
are registered with the city.
Airbnb is the biggest player in San
Francisco, with nearly 5,000 active listings
at the end of April.
Ballot proponents say unregulated homeshares take units off the market, adding to
the citys tight housing stock. Opponents
of the measure say people who rent to
tourists often need the extra money for
bills.
Current law, implemented in February,
caps entire-home rentals at 90 days a year.
Hosted rentals are unlimited. The law also
requires that hosts register with the city.

New Horizons contacted home.
It takes 4 1/2 hours for signals to travel
one-way between New Horizons and Earth.
The message went out late in the afternoon
during a brief break in the spacecrafts datagathering frenzy. The New Horizons team
kept up a confirmation countdown, noting
via Twitter when the signal should have
passed the halfway point, then Jupiters

Alabama, and a bell tolled.
In the hometown and residence of Harper
Lee, it was time to start a marathon and
occasionally painful reading of Go Set a
Watchman, the second book no one ever
thought they would see from the author of
To Kill a Mockingbird.
Lee fans worldwide stayed up late, awakened early and dashed off during meal breaks
to pick up a copy of the years most anticipated novel, Go Set a Watchman, which
came out Tuesday after months of the most
unusual pre-publication attention in memory.
From the moment publisher
HarperCollins announced Watchman in
early February, reactions of ecstatic disbelief have been shadowed by concerns about
the books quality, the 89-year-old Lees

property owners to pay for the cost of relocating tenants evicted without justification.
Joshua Howard, senior vice president of
the California Apartment Association, said
he opposed officials considering a just
cause measure, as it would likely have unintended consequences, and severely restrict
the rights of landlords and property owners
to evict tenants who adversely impact the
lives of others living near them.
He said such an ordinance often leads to
drawn-out legal battles between tenants and
landlords, which can be difficult for all parties.
The only winners in just cause evictions
tend to be lawyers, he said.
Ross Bruce, of AVR Realty in Burlingame,
echoed those sentiments.
Please allow me to protect my tenants,
he said. And just cause prevents that.

The report, Review of the County of San
Mateos Procurement of Goods, finds that
the countys Procurement Division lacks
experienced leadership and does not follow
best practices.
While the grand jury was unable to quantify the impact of the countys failure to
develop and adhere to best practices, such
impact is likely in the millions of dollars,
according to the report.
Released Monday, the report questions
whether a new effort to improve how the
county buys its goods will be meaningful

Lees legacy, Susan Scullin, a reading


teacher in New York City, said of
Watchman as she prepared to buy a copy
at the Barnes & Noble in Manhattans
Union Square.
It might damage Atticus Finchs legacy,
and that makes me a little nervous.
Booksellers
from
Cambridge,
Massachusetts, to Downers Grove, Illinois,
opened at midnight Tuesday, while Barnes
& Noble stores began selling copies at 7
a.m., two hours earlier than usual. Preorders have already made Go Set a
Watchman one of the years top books and
did not let up despite lukewarm reviews and
the unwelcome news that Finch, one of the
all-time literary heroes, was a bigot in
Watchman.
Amazon.com has called Watchman its
most popular pre-order since the last Harry
Potter book, which came out in 2007. At
Barnes & Noble, the comparisons were not
to a phenomenon like Potter, but to a follow up: Mary Amicucci, the superstore
chains vice president for adult trade and
childrens books, said that pre-orders were
the highest since the 2009 release of Dan

Browns The Lost Symbol, his first novel


after The Da Vinci Code and itself a million seller.
Sales for Mockingbird, already a consistent favorite, have doubled at Barnes &
Noble since Watchman was announced.
The books first printing exceeds 2 million
copies.
In slightly varying accounts, Lee attorney Tonja Carter has said she came upon the
Watchman manuscript last year while
looking through some of the authors
papers. Watchman was written before
Mockingbird, which won the Pulitzer
Prize in 1961. But it takes place 20 years
later, in the 1950s. Carter and literary agent
Andrew Nurnberg have also speculated that
Lee planned a trilogy of novels, although
HarperCollins in its Watchman press
notes cited scant reference to support this
theory.
Watchman finds a grown-up Scout, now
living in New York, visiting her native
Maycomb, Alabama, and observing a community terrified by the Supreme Courts
recent ruling that school segregation was
unconstitutional. Scout herself is shaken

when among those joining the racist mob is


the man who in Mockingbird stood
against it, her father, Atticus.
In Monroeville, which has long had an
ambivalent relationship with Lee, only
around 20 people were in attendance as volunteers took turns reading from
Watchman. Ann-Michael Winstead, 20,
endured reciting Atticus ugly warning to
Scout: Do you want your children going to
a school thats been dragged down to
accommodate Negro children?
Winstead wiped her eyes after the reading.
It was tough. You grow up with this book
(Mockingbird) ... You think of him as the
perfect gentleman, colorblind, she said as
she choked back tears.
At a reading Tuesday night in Manhattan,
the actress who played Scout in the 1962
film adaptation of Mockingbird praised
the new book. Mary Badham, now 62, said
she admired how Scout is still pushing buttons every chance she gets and added that
such recent tragedies as the church shooting
in Charleston, South Carolina, meant that
the racial themes in Watchman remained
relevant.

implementing the ordinance because it


would grant greater defenses for tenants.
Officials should favor protections for residents who are being unfairly evicted, said
Cornell.
The debate regarding the rights of tenants
takes place in the wake of a series of rent
hikes across the city, which have driven
some Burlingame residents from their
homes, and brought into focus a conversation regarding rent control, among other
issues.
Due to Measure T, which voters approved
in 1988, officials cannot enact any ordinance which would impact rental rates in
Burlingame.
Vice Mayor Ann Keighran expressed a
firm opposition against imposing a just
cause ordinance which would restrict the
rights of landlords to evict tenants, in part
because she felt many of the rent hikes
some renters have received are within the
legal discretion of property owners.
Commonly landlords will invest heavily
in purchasing or renovating a residential
development, then increase the rent to tenants, which should not be considered an
eviction, said Keighran, but rather a private

property owner exercising their rights.


Councilman Michael Brownrigg also
expressed reservations regarding whether
imposing a just cause ordinance would
address the issue of significant rent hikes
facing tenants.
I dont think our landlords are evicting
people unjustly, he said. I dont think this
solves a problem that exists. I find this to
be a really bitter battle over almost nothing.
San Mateo County Supervisor Dave Pine
and Bill Lowell, director of the San Mateo
County Department of Housing, were also
present at the meeting to give city officials
perspective on the countys efforts to
address similar concerns throughout the
region.
Burlingame officials agreed to wait for the
findings from a pending county report to
glean more information about the housing
crisis throughout the Peninsula, with intent
of developing a more definite strategy
regarding how to combat the issue.
This is a huge, huge problem, said
Councilman Ricardo Ortiz. It is a regional
problem.
Nagel said she would favor imposing a fee

on developers who are building office and


residential projects in Burlingame, which
could be spent to subsidize affordable housing.
Projections estimate 24 million square
feet of office and commercial space will be
built in San Mateo County over the next
four to five years, which Burlingame could
capitalize on to benefit the 52 percent of
city residents who rent their home, said
Nagel.
The council had also been asked by Nagel
to further consider the feasibility of such
renter protections as instituting a mediation service which would negotiate disputes
between renters and landlords, encouraging
the development of second units at existing
residences and establishing a best practices
guide for landlords.
Ultimately, the council opted to gather
more information before moving forward
toward any of the potential protections.
I dont think we have enough raw data to
know what to study, said Brownrigg.

since most of the recommendations made by


the civil grand jury in 2004 and county
Controllers Office in 2009 were never
implemented despite the Procurement
Division agreeing to do so.
The countys expenditures for goods and
services was $299.8 million for fiscal year
2013-14, according to the report.
Exactly how much was spent on goods,
however, came into question because the
county lacks an accounting system to clearly segregate amounts paid for services from
amounts paid for goods, according to the
report.
The Procurement Division buys goods
such as furniture, paper clips, computers and
other office equipment for all county departments.
The civil grand jury investigation also
found that the Procurement Division has

lost key personnel in recent years and that


there is no training for new buyers.
In January 2015, the County Managers
Office formed a Purchasing Compliance
Committee to begin to address the issues
related to the procurement of goods. This
effort coincides with a new review of the
Procurement Divisions purchases by the
Controllers Office that has yet to be completed, according to the report.
Whether either of these efforts will result
in substantive changes is questionable,
according to the report.
After investigating the countys procurement practices in 2003 and 2004, the civil
grand jury made nine recommendations. The
current report notes that only two of the recommendations were implemented, four partially implemented and three not implemented at all.
No matter how good the Controllers
Offices recommendations ... are, there must
be a process in place to ensure that they will

actually be implemented. Such a process


should include an implementation schedule
and close monitoring by the County
Manager, according to the report.
County officials were not ready to
respond to the report Tuesday.
The county appreciates the grand jurys
detailed evaluation of its Procurement
Division. As weve only just received the
report, we are still reviewing its findings
and feel it would be premature to comment at
this time. However, we will submit a complete written response as required, according to a written statement from the county.

Obama calls for shorter sentences for nonviolent convicts


By Josh Lederman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Calling it an issue


America cant afford to ignore, President
Barack Obama on Thursday laid out an expansive vision for fixing the criminal justice
system by focusing on communities, courtrooms and cellblocks. He announced a federal
review of the use of solitary confinement and
urged Congress to pass a sentencing reform
bill by years end.
In a speech to the NAACPs annual convention, Obama also called for voting rights to
be restored to felons who have served their
sentences, and said employers should ban
the box asking job candidates about their
past convictions. He said long mandatory
minimum sentences now in place should be
reduced or discarded entirely.
In far too many cases, the punishment
simply doesnt fit the crime, Obama told a
crowd of 3,300 in Philadelphia. Low-level
drug dealers, for example, owe a debt to society, but not a life sentence or 20-year prison
term, he said.
With his speech to the prominent African-

American advocacy group, Obama sought to


put a spotlight on the need for new legislation as he mounted a weeklong push on criminal justice reform. A day earlier, Obama commuted the sentences of 46 nonviolent drug
offenders the most commutations a president has issued on a single day in at least four
decades. Upon arriving Tuesday in
Philadelphia, Obama met with a number of
former prisoners to discuss their experience
re-entering society, the White House said.
And on Thursday, Obama planned to put a personal face on the nations mushrooming
prison population with a visit El Reno
Federal Correctional Institution outside of
Oklahoma City the first visit to a federal
prison by a sitting U.S. president.
The assertive moves reflected a president
eager to wield his executive power during his
waning years in office to reduce harsh sentences, cut costs and correct disparities he
said have disproportionally burdened minorities. Earlier in his presidency, as he spent his
political capital carefully on major domestic
priorities, Obama spoke cautiously and only
intermittently about the need for smarter sentencing and other justice changes.

Lawyers in theater
shooting trial make
final appeals to jury
By Sadie Gurman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CENTENNIAL, Colo. James


Holmes was legally sane when he
entered a packed movie theater
armed with an assault rifle, a shotgun and a pistol, intent on killing
as many people as he could, a
prosecutor told jurors Tuesday in
closing arguments at the gunmans
trial.
That guy was sane beyond a reasonable doubt, and he needs to be
held accountable for what he did,
District Attorney George Brauchler
said.
But defense lawyer Daniel King
countered that Holmes was controlled by his schizophrenia.
The mental illness caused this
to happen. Only the mental illness caused this, and nothing
else, King said.
Brauchler and King made their
final appeals to jurors Tuesday
before handing over the case.
Deliberations are scheduled to
begin Wednesday morning.
Holmes slipped into the packed
theater on July 20, 2012 almost
three years ago and opened fire.
Twelve people died and 70 were
injured.
Defense attorneys are asking for
a verdict of not guilty by reason of
insanity, which would send
Holmes to the state mental hospital for an indefinite commitment.
Prosecutors say Holmes should be
convicted of murder and executed.

Brauch l er
again stressed
the heavy toll
on unsuspecting
victims who had
gone to see the
midnight premier of a Batman
movie,
The
Dark
Knight
James Holmes Rises.
They came in
hoping to see the story of a hero
dressed in black, someone who
would fight insurmountable odds
for justice, Brauchler said.
Instead, a different figure
appeared by the screen. ... He came
there with one thing in his heart
and his mind, and that was mass
murder.
Many of the victims and family
members in the courtroom wept as
Brauchler showed photos of the
dead and wounded and recounted
their stories. Josh Nowlan, who
was shot in the leg and walks with
a cane, pressed his hands into his
eyes and shook.
Jurors showed no emotion but
craned their heads toward the
gallery when Brauchler said one
badly wounded victim, Caleb
Medley, was seated there.
King urged the jurors to set
aside the deeply emotional
impact of the massacre and decide
based on the wording of the
statute. He repeatedly told them
the courtroom was the fortress of
the law.

A photographer exits a tunnel connected to the Altiplano Federal Penitentiary and used by drug lord Joaquin
El Chapo Guzman to escape, in Almoloya de Juarez, on the outskirts of Mexico City.

Mexican govt reticent to make


changes after El Chapo escape
By Mark Stevenson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MEXICO CITY For those


who remember Colombia in the
dark days of the 1990s, its all
too familiar: The worlds most
powerful drug lord slips out of
prison, the beneficiary of his
governments refusal to extradite
him and its inability to hold him.
When notorious Colombian
drug lord Pablo Escobar left his
luxury prison near Medellin in
1992, the ensuing scandal set in
motion changes: a renewal of
extraditions to the U.S. and the
hunting down and killing of

Escobar a year
later.
In Mexico,
however,
the
weekend escape
by Joaquin El
Chapo Guzman
appears to have
the governing
party consultJoaquin
ing its old
Guzman
playbook
of
denial and finger-pointing.
Rather than address the complicity and corruption that most
certainly allowed Guzman to slip
from his high-security cell and
out a mile-long tunnel rigged
with lights and a motorcycle,

Mexicos interior secretary


argued late Monday that the drug
lord would have escaped any maximum-security prison in the
world.
The Altiplano prison has the
same certification as a lot of ones
I could mention in the United
States, Miguel Osorio Chong
said.
For its part, the ruling
Institutional
Revolutionary
Party, which reclaimed power in
2012 after losing two presidential votes, cast blame on the previous administration of President
Felipe Calderon for launching an
aggressive and bloody war on
Mexicos cartels.

OPINION

THE DAILY JOURNAL

Creative ideas spurred by drought

y many predictions, this


winter will have heavy rain
because of El Nio which
should bring some large measure of
relief for our ongoing drought conditions. As with many El Nio years,
the rain will be welcome but will
likely not completely cure our overall status.
In the meantime, conservation
mandates are holding and most are
complying and there is serious
thought to looking at our states ageold water policies. Whether it be century-old water rights, our reservoir
policy or overall conservation
efforts, if the rain returns, there may
be an urge to put those measures on
the back burner and just enjoy the
rain. But that would be foolish.
With a growing population, it is as
important to continue exploring
ways we all can use our water more
wisely while also seeing if there are
more opportunities to supplement
our traditional supply. In the Bay
Area, that supply is largely Sierra
snowpack. In recent months, Cal
Water, the San Francisco Public

Editorial
Utilities Commission and the cities
of Daly City and San Bruno
announced a management plan in
which all parties would not draw from
the South Westside Groundwater
Basin in wet years, but use it in
times of drought. In return, the
SFPUC would supplement the others
water supply with free water from
Hetch Hetchy in wet years. The
SFPUC also recently completed a
$278 million upgrade of the Harry
Tracy Water Treatment Plant in San
Bruno that will supply water in the
case of an earthquake.
More recently, the California Water
Service Company announced its
intention to study the possibility of
drilling the Bay floor for brackish
water that could then be purified on
the Bayfront perhaps in San
Mateo for use by residents. Its a
good idea, and the company should
be commended for exploring a new
supplemental water supply in case

drought conditions continue and


return once El Nio drops more rain
on us and snow in the Sierras.
While water may be inherently
cheap, it is a valuable resource to
which we can all attest when it is no
longer abundant. While California
has wet and dry cycles, it is becoming increasingly more important to
do advance planning in times of both
drought and wet seasons. There has
been tremendous energy put into
solutions, though there has also
been a fair share of volatile fingerpointing whether it be at environmentalists, farmers or the need for
new housing. While the latter has
not been very productive, there are
bright spots that have emerged from
our current crisis. The Cal Water Bay
drilling project is one such bright
spot and illustrates the value of
thinking outside the box when the
situation calls for it. It has yet to
enter its study stage and it may not
yield success. However, it is worth
exploring and determining if there is
a way to supplement our water supply
in both wet years and dry.

Letters to the editor


Millbrae water rates
Editor,
I am a resident of Millbrae compelled to write about the injustice to
Millbrae water customers regarding
an increase to already high sewer
service charges to be imposed by the
city of Millbrae on its water customers effective Aug. 1. Existing
sewer charges will be raised every
year over the next five years. In
addition, they are adding a new
Sanitary Sewer Overflow Charge
costing $10.50 per month in the
first year and $23.90 per month
every year thereafter for 21 years.
This charge is the same for all water
classes residential and commercial.
By 2019, the average single-family resident will be paying a whopping $195.60 bi-monthly for service charges, not including the cost
of actual usage. Why is this service
charge the same for both residential
and commercial customers?
According to our Public Works director, to make billing simple. This
is completely unacceptable. How are
residents on fixed and tight incomes
supposed to survive paying such
high sewer service charges?
The deadline to protest these
increases is July 28. I urge all
Millbrae residents to attend the
hearing 7 p.m. July 28 at City Hall.

W

hat does it mean for us as a democratic


society that more than half of the foods
on supermarket shelves contain genetically modied ingredients, but their presence is not labeled.
Marion Nestle, Safe Food (2004).
Last week, I wrote about some good news in the nutrition realm. This week, alas, is some bad news that has the
potential to transcend and overwhelm any other progress
being made. It was really startling to see on the cover of
the May 29 Newsweek a bold proclamation: You are
totally wrong about genetically altered food. Also, an
article in the New York Times by Jane Brody (a nutrition
educator that I once admired) titled: Fears, not facts support GMO-free foods. If accurate, this would have read:
Facts, not ction, underlie
fear of GMO foods.
Ecology magazine coeditor, Zac Goldsmith
wrote: Monsanto has been
able, time and time again,
to bring about what is in
effect a de facto censorship. Their size and history
of aggression has repeatedly brought an end to what
is undeniably a legitimate
and very important debate.
They believe in information, but only that which
ensures a favorable public
response to their often dangerous products.
There are more facets to the GMO issue than meets the
eye. And as far as corporate interests are concerned, the
fewer we are aware of, the better. Obviously, they dont
care about us consumers and our progeny only about
their bottom line and their control over the food industry
and the products that we depend upon for health. And they
know that since most people are clueless, and easily
fooled about their aims, and also about their practices,
that they can get away with it.
They claim that they have the welfare of consumers and
the worlds hungry in mind as they audaciously alter the
composition of our crops and integrity of our food, not
only with their GMOs, but also their farming practices.
No doubt they are counting on the fact that whatever
changes their food nagling causes in the human body,
they will not be recognized as being caused by GMO
foods. As reported by Food and Water Watch: What we
do know about GMO crops is troubling: the vast majority
are designed with the sole purpose of withstanding large
quantities of toxic pesticides and herbicides that pollute
our environment and are linked with serious health problems. A process is being foisted upon us that could possibly change the physical and mental well-being of human
beings forever. And as far as theyre concerned, the less
we learn about it, the better.
Genetically modied foods are a regular part of the
United States diet. The regulations in the United States
are so lax, there [are] no required premarket safety tests.
There is no way to determine if these GM foods are creating serious health problems. People get sick all the time
without tracking their illness to food, or pesticides, or air
or water pollution. The causes remain well hidden. Is
there a connection to GM foods? We have no way of
knowing because no one has looked for one. Steven
Druker, Altered Genes, Twisted Truth.
Even more distressing: Genetically modied foods get
FDA pass. Monsanto and cohorts are doing everything
they can (including brainwashing the editors of Newsweek
and Jane Brody) to justify their practices and to convince
the naive and gullible that they absolutely have their best
interest at heart. As Druker wrote: It is clear that the venture to genetically engineer our foods has been chronically dependent upon systematic suppression of facts conjoined with the persistent spread of misinformation
and could not have survived without either.
If you read books written by scientists like Druker and
Jeffrey M. Smiths Seeds of Deception who havent
been bought out by Monsanto and who have studied the
situation thoroughly, youll read about Flavr Savr tomatoes, GE potatoes, engineered pigs and their unprecedented control of seeds, ad nauseam. And you will realize the
great extent of deception and subterfuge that Monsanto
and cohorts have resorted to in order to promote their
cause and how clueless consumers fail to appreciate the
seriousness of the situation.
This brings to mind the comics pages of the July 3
Chronicle. You may have seen Pearls before Swine by
Stephen Pastis. Two characters are talking. One asks, Do
you think that food that contains genetically modied
ingredients should be labeled as such? His companion
answers, Yes. The rst one asks, So how did you vote
on the ballot initiative requiring it? Answer, I voted
against it. Why? asks the rst. Because Im dumb. Im
far too stupid for democracy. I rest my case.

NEW YORK Stocks climbed


broadly on Tuesday as investors who
had been fretting over the Greek debt
crisis and plunging Chinese stocks
turned their attention back to the U.S.
economy and corporate earnings
reports.
JPMorgan Chase and Johnson &
Johnson reported second-quarter profits that were stronger than expected. A
government report showed that
Americans cut back on spending at
retailers last month, but some
investors interpreted that as good for
stocks since it may make the Federal
Reserve more cautious when it starts
raising rates for the first time in nine
years.
Its back to the mindset that bad
news is good news, said James Abate,
chief investment officer of Centre
Funds. We think (the Fed) will raise
rates in September, but we dont think
it will be an aggressive tightening
cycle.
The gains were modest but widespread. Among the 10 industry sectors
of the Standard and Poors 500 index,
only utilities fell. It was the fourth
straight gain in a row for the broader
index.
The S&P 500 increased 9.35 points,
or 0.5 percent, to 2,108.95. The Dow

Jones industrial average gained 75.90


points, or 0.4 percent, to 18,053.58.
The Nasdaq composite climbed 33.38
points, or 0.7 percent, to 5,104.89.
The Commerce Department said
retail sales slipped 0.3 percent in June,
the weakest showing since February.
That followed a robust 1 percent jump
in May. A separate report from National
Federation of Independent Business
showed an index of small business
optimism fell in June.
Investors were also keeping an eye
on Greece after the country struck a preliminary deal with its creditors. Prime
Minister Alexis Tsipras has to convince lawmakers to approve tax hikes
and spending cuts by Wednesday to
receive emergency money and re-open
the countrys banks, but he faced dissent even within his left-wing party.
Peter Cardillo, chief economist at
Rockwell Global, a brokerage firm,
thinks the Greek crisis may still spook
the stock market. He said investors
seemed to be more focused Tuesday on
earnings, and hoping some decent
reports so far will continue and buck
the currently low expectations
investors have.
The earnings announcements are
probably going to be the real driving
force of the markets over the next few
weeks, Cardillo said.

Revolt over Greece austerity deal grows


By Derek Gatopoulos
and Elena Becatoros
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ATHENS, Greece Greeces leftwing government launched a frantic


24-hour effort late Tuesday to push
more austerity measures through
Parliament and meet demands from
European creditors as it faced down
mounting anger at home.
The belt-tightening measures, which
include pension cuts and higher sales
tax rates on everything from condoms
to racehorses, were agreed upon with
eurozone leaders to prevent the Greek
economy from collapsing, and as part
of a planned third bailout worth 85 billion euros ($94 billion).
The new measures mean economically-battered Greeks will pay more for

most goods and services by the end of


the week.
Hard-liners in Prime Minister Alexis
Tsipras own Syriza party were in open
revolt, and unions and trade associations
representing civil servants, municipal
workers, pharmacy owners and others
called or extended strikes to coincide
with Wednesdays Parliament vote.
Energy
Minister
Panagiotis
Lafazanis said lead eurozone lender
Germany and its allies had acted like
financial assassins by forcing the
deal on Athens, and urged Tsipras to
reject it.
The deal is unacceptable,
Lafazanis said in a statement. It may
pass through Parliament ... but the
people will never accept it and will be
united in their fight against it.
In an interview on state TV, Tsipras

said he would not step down, despite


the open dissent within his own
Cabinet and party. I will not run away
from my responsibilities, he said.
He also criticized the deal, but said it
was the best Greece could get.
The policies imposed on us were
irrational, Tsipras said. We faced a
tough and punitive position from our
partners ... But the (agreement) does
offer a way out of the crisis.
Pro-European opposition parties
have pledged support for the bailout
bills, but Tsipras could effectively lose
his majority in Parliament, weakening
his ability to push through measures
that he had himself vehemently
opposed until a few weeks ago.
Tsipras coalition partner, Defense
Minister Panos Kammenos, also bitterly denounced the new deal.

Retail sales fall in June as consumers remain cautious


By Christopher S. Rugaber
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Americans cut


back their spending at stores and
restaurants last month, a sign that
they remain cautious despite robust
job growth in the past year.
Retail sales fell 0.3 percent in June,
the Commerce Department said
Tuesday, the weakest showing since

Februarys harsh winter weather kept


shoppers indoors. That followed a
robust 1 percent jump in May, though
that was revised down from a previous
estimate of 1.2 percent.
Economists had expected that consumers would rein in their spending
after Mays large gain. But the reversal
was much sharper than projected.
It certainly is a case of two steps
forward, one step back for the U.S.

Companies reporting in the coming
days include Delta Air Lines and Netflix

Among stocks making big moves,
loan servicing company Navient cut its
earnings forecast because of weakened
credit trends on some student loans and
a drop in loans that are coming out of
deferment compared with previous
years. Its stock plunged $1.94, or 10.6
percent, to $16.42.
Micron Technology jumped 11 percent on reports that a Chinese company is preparing a $23 billion bid for
the chip maker in what would be
Chinas largest takeover of a U.S. company. Some media reports said that
Tsinghua Unigroup Ltd. would bid $21
per Micron share, and that an offer
could come this week. Micron gained
$2 to $19.61.
Twitter briefly spiked 8.5 percent
after a fake story said the company
received a $31 billion buyout offer. The
story appeared on a website made to
look like Bloombergs business news
page. A Bloomberg spokesman said the
story was bogus. Twitter closed up 94

Wells Fargo profit edges lower in second quarter
NEW YORK Wells Fargo, the nations biggest mortgage lender, says its second-quarter earnings edged lower as
a key measure of its profitability shrank.
Net income fell to $5.36 billion from $5.42 billion a
year earlier, the San Francisco-based bank said Tuesday.
Thats after taking out dividends for preferred stock. On a
per-share basis, earnings rose to $1.03 from $1.01.
Revenue rose 1 percent, to $21.3 billion, from $21.07

The earnings were in line with Wall Streets expectations,
according to data provider FactSet. Revenue came in slightly lower than forecast. Analysts at FactSet had expected revenue of $21.6 billion.
The banks net interest margin, a measure of how much
profit it makes on money it loans out, shrank to 2.97 percent in the second quarter from 3.15 percent a year earlier.
The measure is closely watched by financial analysts.

Honda settles discrimination


claims with Justice Department
LOS ANGELES Honda has reached a settlement to
resolve allegations that the company discriminated against
minority car buyers by marking up interest rates on loans.
Hondas settlement with the U.S. Department of Justice,
which is subject to court approval, was filed Tuesday in federal court in Los Angeles. Honda is based in nearby
Torrance, California.
The Justice Department and the Consumer Financial
Protection Bureau said that Honda dealers charged higher
interest rates to thousands of black, Hispanic, Asian and
Pacific Islander customers than white car buyers.
Honda says in a statement that it strongly opposes any
form of discrimination and firmly believes its lending
practices have been fair.
Under the settlement, Honda is agreeing to pay $24 million to past victims of discriminatory lending and cap the
interest rates dealers can charge.

NEW YORK JPMorgan Chase & Co.s second-quarter


profit rose 4 percent as the bank made up for lower revenue
by cutting expenses.
The largest U.S. bank by assets said Tuesday that it earned
$5.78 billion, or $1.54 a share, in the latest quarter, up
from $5.57 billion, or $1.46 a share, a year earlier. Net revenue totaled $23.81 billion, down from $24.68 billion.
Revenue at three of the four JPMorgan businesses fell or
was flat. The only business where it grew was asset management.
But as revenues declined, JPMorgan was able to compensate by cutting expenses, reducing headcount, and through
a $330 million gain as its corporate tax rate fell.

Tuivailala back to bigs after PCL All-Star nod


The major league squad is obviously the
focus for any professional franchise, but
certainly is the case of the Cardinals. They
entered into the All-Star break with the best
record in the Major Leagues at 56-33. But
right on the Cards heels are the Pittsburgh
Pirates, three games out of first place in the
National League Central Division, with the
NLs second best record.
Tuivailala arrived in big leagues Saturday
just in time to throw against those Pirates.
And while the Cards dropped the final two
games of the first half to the Bucs, Tuivailala
posted the best back-to-back games of his
brief big-league career thus far, firing three

perfect innings over the two days.


This marks the fourth big-league stint for
Tuivailala, who was originally called up in
September of last season. He saw just two
appearances in 2014, yielding four runs on
five hits to produce an inflated 36.00 ERA.
This season, however, Tuivailala set out
to evolve his secondary repertoire in spring
training. Cardinals pitching coach Derek
Lilliquist approached him during the
spring, Tuivailala said, and advised him to
begin throwing a cut fastball.
Tuivailalas arsenal was suited for the cutter.

Sam Tuivailala wont be playing in his


first All-Star game since Little League after

with that.
A former Aragon standout, Tuivailala was
named to the Pacific Coast League All-Star
team last week after an exceptional first half
with St. Louis Cardinals Triple-A affiliate
Memphis. The Redbirds closer notched a 30 record with a 1.78 ERA while converting a

On July 11, however,


just four days prior to the
Triple-A All-Star Game at
Werner Park in Omaha,
Nebraska, Tuivailala was
recalled to the big-league
club to replace injured
reliever Mitch Harris.
Yeah, its obviously a

Once Steve Sagasty got going, it was a


waltz to the North Peninsula League championship for Pacifica Joe DiMaggio.
In its regular season finale, Pacifica (154) cruised to a 6-0 victory over San Carlos
Tuesday evening at Burton Park to clinch
the North title. Sagasty led the way, working out of trouble in several innings to hurl
an eight-hit shutout.
As a freshman at City College of San
Francisco in the spring, Sagasty was used
exclusively in relief. So, the right-hander relished the starting call in Pacificas most
important game of the season to date.
Being able to be on the mound in a game
that clinches us state (playoffs), its awesome, Sagasty said.
The league title gives Pacifica a bye into
the Joe DiMaggio World Series, beginning
July 23 in Napa at Justin Siena High School.
Half Moon Bay also earned a bye by clinching the South Peninsula League crown.
Pacifica entered into game tied atop the
North Peninsula League standings with San
Bruno. Because Pacifica won the season
series from San Bruno, Tuesdays win
clinched the league crown regardless of San
Brunos 7-6 win over Foster City Tuesday.
After staking Sagasty to an early lead
scoring one run in the first, three in the
third and two in the fifth Pacifica had
plenty of fun with the pivotal win as the
night wound down.
Amid some hijinks, left-handed throwing
Bret Berghammer played the final inning at
shortstop. Berghammer asked Pacifica manager Bryan Powers at the beginning of the
season if he could get some reps at short.
Powers promised the standout center fielder
he would give him one inning of playing
time at short at some point of the season.
That chance came in the seventh inning
Tuesday. And as fate would have it, Sagastys
shutout came down to a groundout to shortstop, with two San Carlos runners in scoring
position, to end the game.
I was kind of sweating it when he took

At the beginning of the year, Assembly


Bill 2127 was implemented. It is a new law
that limits the amount of full contact high
school football players can participate in
during a week of practice. The bill is just the
latest attempt to try and protect high school
athletes while they play football.
The bill limits high school practices to a
total of 90 minutes of full contact, two times
per week.
The California Scholastic Federation, the
ruling body for high school sports in the
state, took it a step further and banned all full
contact during the summer.
Some coaches and fans bemoaned the
change, saying it would ruin the game or
make the product on the field less enticing.
Most, however, believe it is a necessary
step.
If we dont change the way we do things
the way we play the game, were not going to
have a game to coach, said Pete Lavorato,
Sacred Heart Prep football coach, who led the
Gators to the Small School State
Championship game in 2014 and went a perfect 13-0 in winning the Central Coast
Section Open Division title.
Lavorato also spent 10 years playing in
the Canadian Football League.
Back in the day, I remember when I started
coaching, you would hit almost every day,
Lavorato continued. Look at how many
more opportunities you have to get kids hurt.
Now you take that out of the equation. Youll
have less injuries. That just makes sense.
Aragon coach Steve Sell, who started as an
assistant at his alma mater in 1999, is in the
same camp as Lavorato.
Theyre trying to save the game, not ruin
it, Sell said. If you do not convince the
moms of this country football is safe, this
sport is going to be drastically different.

Trout stars in ALs victory in MLB All-Star Game


By Ronald Blum
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CINCINNATI Mike Trout flashed the skill


that puts him at the front of baseballs new
generation, just moments after four of the alltime greats had just walked off the field.
Trout became the first player in 38 years
to homer leading off an All-Star Game, then
became the first player to take home the
Midsummer Classics MVP award two years
in row.

A new-look All-Star
Game finished with the
same old result. The AL
beat the NL 6-3 Tuesday
night and will open the
World Series at home for
the 10th time in 13 years.
After Trout completed a
career All-Star cycle in
just his fifth big league
Mike Trout
season. Prince Fielder
drove in two runs, sending Trout blazing

home with the run off Clayton Kershaw that


put the AL ahead for good.
In an age of dominant pitching, Felix
Hernandez, winner David Price, Zach Britton,
Dellin Betances and Wade Davis took scoreless turns in the ALs third win a row.
A season after the retirement of Derek Jeter
dropped the curtain on the turn-of-century
greats, the 23-year-old Trout was among six
starting position players under 25 the most
since 1965. He was the MVP of last years
game in Minneapolis, when he hit a tiebreak-

ing triple and later a go-ahead double.


This time Trout sent Zack Greinkes fourth
pitch, a 94 mph fastball on the outer half of
the plate, over the wall in right next to the
visiting bullpen for an opposite-field homer.
Winner of his first season AL MVP award
last year, the Los Angeles Angels outfielder
joined Willie Mays, Steve Garvey, Gary
Carter and Cal Ripken, Jr. as the only twotime All-Star MVPs.

Changes to U.S. roster for rest of Gold Cup


By Dave Skretta
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

KANSAS CITY, Kan. Jurgen Klinsmann


spouted optimism after the United States
played Panama to a 1-1 draw to wrap up the
group stage of the Gold Cup, reasoning that
despite a trio of sluggish performances the
Americans had still survived unbeaten.
That didnt stop Klinsmann from shaking
up his roster less than 24 hours later.
The coach chose to add DaMarcus Beasley,
Joe Corona and Alan Gordon for the knockout rounds, which begin with the quarterfinals Saturday in Baltimore. Taking a seat are
Greg Garza, Alfredo Morales and Jozy
Altidore, who has been hampered by an ailing hamstring.
Teams could make up to six roster changes
using their 35-player preliminary list.
Altidore started the first two games in the
group stage but was substituted out of both.
He was left on the bench against Panama on
Monday night.
We believe that Jozys just not there yet.
Jozy never really got into this tournament
and never really picked up the rhythm,
Klinsmann said in announcing the changes
Tuesday. Hes just simply not in the shape

right now to help us.


Klinsmann said he
knew that Altidore might
not be match fit when he
selected him for the Gold
Cup, and thats why
Gordon was on standby
from the beginning. The
Los Angeles Galaxy
Alan Gordon striker made his only
national team appearance
in a 2012 World Cup qualifier against
Antigua and Barbuda; while he was on the
Gold Cup roster two years ago, he didnt get
into a match.
Klinsmann said that the addition of the
33-year-old Beasley will provide leadership
and experience. The four-time World Cup
veteran captained the U.S. to the Gold Cup
title two years ago but had announced his
retirement from international competition.
Having DaMarcus come into the team is
huge, because of his character, his giving
nature, the spirit he brings, but also the
high quality he brings, Klinsmann said.
He brings a lot of experience into this
group, and hes hungry. Hes still as hungry
as Day 1 in his career.
Corona, who scored twice in the Gold Cup

two years ago, was added for his experience


against teams from the Caribbean and
Central America. He also is proficient at
maintaining possession, something the
Americans have struggled to do.
In the tournament now we need to produce
results and get things done. With Joe, we
have that option to bring him in now,
Klinsmann said. With his great technique,
with his one-touch passing, he makes
things very easy and simple. I think its a
great opportunity to have Joe back, even if
it hurts a little bit for Alfredo, but thats just
part of the game.
The U.S. finished 2-0-1 atop Group A,
though the unblemished run wasnt without
stress. The Americans scuffled to a 2-1 victory over Honduras and needed a big play
from Clint Dempsey for a 1-0 victory over
Haiti.
Still, Klinsmann chose to highlight the
quality of the group rather than his own
teams shortcomings and insisted the U.S. is
trending upward heading into the quarterfinals.
We can improve still a lot, absolutely,
Klinsmann said. You can take the game
apart and see that we didnt have the passing
rhythm we needed. We made mistakes. But

we know were growing game to game and


thats what this is all about.
Not everyone shared such robust optimism, though.
Were not going to kid ourselves. We
need to put together a 90-minute performance, said goalkeeper Brad Guzan. Now
going forward its about wins. Its about
grinding, find a way.
Dempsey, who has scored three of the
Americans four goals, had a rather simple
explanation for the string of lackluster performances: Teams just play hard against
us.
Were trying to get everyone together,
Dempsey explained. I think the most
important thing is to be hitting your stride
now, when it starts to matter.
By that, he means the knockout stage, in
which the Americans are still the heavy
favorites to win the tournament.
Theres no real preparation for the Gold
Cup, so its difficult to be in a flow,
Klinsmann said. Now being together for
more than two weeks, hopefully we can get
more and more into that phase where we
combine better, were shifting better and
doing certain things better that only come
with time.

MLB hopes Rays, As can get new parks in current markets Shorter schedule
By Ronald Blum
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CINCINNATI Major League Baseball


remains hopeful the Tampa Bay Rays and
Oakland Athletics will be able to obtain new
ballparks without relocating yet will examine other markets in case a team needs to
move or the sport decides to expand.
Tampa Bay is last in the major leagues in
average home attendance at 14,731 and
Oakland is 26th at 22,369. Twenty-two of
the 30 clubs have opened new stadiums
since 1990, and the Rays and As are the
only teams currently seeking new homes.
Oakland owner Lew Wolff hoped for a new
ballpark in San Jose, California, but was
thwarted by the San Francisco Giants,
whose territory includes Santa Clara
County. The 9th U. S. Circuit Court of
Appeals ruled against San Jose in its
antitrust suit against MLB, and the city has
asked the U.S. Supreme Court to hear the
case.
Manfred has been speaking with Libby
Schaaf, who became Oaklands mayor in
January, and representatives of Alameda
County, where the city is located.
I am encouraged by the attitude of the
mayor, Manfred said Tuesday during a meeting of the Baseball Writers Association of
America. I am hopeful that the process is
moving toward giving the As a concrete
alternative for a new stadium in Oakland.
The As are based in the Oakland
Coliseum, which opened in 1966 and is the
only venue still shared by MLB and NFL
teams. The Rays play in St. Petersburgs
Tropicana Field, which opened in 1990.
While the club has been in Pinellas
County since starting play in 1998 and the
clubs lease expires in 2027, Rays owner

I am encouraged by the attitude of the mayor. I am hopeful


that the process is moving toward giving the As a
concrete alternative for a new stadium in Oakland.
Rob Manfred, Major League Baseball commissioner

Stu Sternberg would like to explore other


sites in the area.
The St. Petersburg City Council in
December rejected an agreement reached by
Mayor Rick Kriseman that would have
allowed to Rays to evaluate sites on the east
side of the bay in Hillsborough County,
where Tampa is located.
We have an issue in Tampa. They put a
great product on the field. The attendance is
not what we would like to see, and we
believe it is facility related. Its that simple, Manfred said.
I find encouraging the fact that it seems
that politicians in the area broadly defined
are interested in getting something done
and keeping the Rays in St. PetersburgTampa, or Tampa-St. Petersburg, whichever
way you want to say it.
Manfred added we will not get to the
point of exploring relocation unless and
until Mr. Sternburg and I in consultation or
together reach the conclusion that its not
possible to get something done in the market where he exists now. Were not at that
stage.
Montreal Mayor Denis Coderre met with
Manfred in May and hopes to regain a club
for his city. The Expos joined the National
League as an expansion team for the 1969
season and remained in the big leagues
through 2004 before moving to
Washington and becoming the Nationals.
While the Expos failed to draw 1 million
spectators to Olympic Stadium in any of

their final seven seasons, a total of 96,350


fans attended a pair of March 2014 exhibitions between the New York Mets and
Toronto, and 96,545 went to a pair of games
between the Blue Jays and Cincinnati this
year.
Its a long way from two exhibition
games to 81 home games in a facility that is
consistent with major league standards,
Manfred said.
MLB has not expanded since adding the
Rays and Arizona Diamondbacks for the
1998 season, which raised the leagues total
to 30 teams.
I think we are a growth business, broadly defined. And I think growth businesses
over an extended period of time look to get
bigger. So, yeah, Im open to the idea that
there will be a point in time where expansion may be possible, Manfred said.
Earlier this year, he said Portland,
Oregon, and Charlotte, North Carolina,
have all checked in recently regarding
potential expansion.
Because of the nagging threat of a need
to relocate and because of expansion, or the
possibility of expansion, I think its really
important for us to look at markets that are
out there that are interested in baseball,
Manfred said.
The sport intends to examine their viability, think about what we can do to make
them more viable, so that we have business
alternatives that are available to us.

could be tied to
playoff changes
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CINCINNATI Cutting the length of Major


League Baseballs regular-season schedule
could be tied to reconfiguring the postseason.
Baseball players are increasingly complaining of the toll of playing 162 games in 183
days. The schedule was 154 games before the
AL added eight games when it expanded in
1961, and the National League adopted the new
format when it added two teams for the 1962
season.
A shortened schedule is a major, major economic issue, Commissioner Rob Manfred
told the Baseball Writers Association of
America on Tuesday.
We sell out in a lot of markets in terms of
gates. The gates are really valuable to us. We
have television commitments. Each local contract varies, but there are game guarantees that
could be affected by a shortened season.
Baseballs national television contracts
with Fox, ESPN and Turner run through the
2021 season and are based on the current format. The 30 teams have local broadcast deals
that would be impacted by a schedule change.
Usually when you have a big economic
issue where youre giving up revenue, you got
to figure out something that is offsetting in
the other direction, Manfred said, and the
one obvious possibility is you make a change
in terms of playoff format. Im not suggesting
that were anywhere on either of those topics,
but I do think if you shorten the season, there
would be pressure to look at the postseason, as
well.

Clearly, they were having a bad day. So
Froome decided to make it even worse.
Reprising the formula that carried him to

than last years champion, Vincenzo Nibali.
Sweat beading off his chin, the Sicilian was
cooked. The biggest high-profile loser of
Stage 10 shed more than 4 minutes to Froome,
all but ending his Tour defense.
Next, Alberto Contador dropped from the
by-now shriveled group of the Tours hardiest,
most pain-resistant climbers. The 2007 and
2009 champion zigzagged across the steep tarmac as Froomes trusty lieutenant Richie Porte
applied yet more speed. That doomed the
Spaniards chances of adding the 2015 Tour to

the Giro dItalia title he won in May.


Two down, one major rival to go. Froome
took down Nairo Quintana himself. Rising
from his saddle with six kilometers (four
miles) still to climb to the La Pierre-SaintMartin ski resort, Froome accelerated away,
head down, legs pumping. The bill for
Quintana, who rode in third behind Froome and
Porte at the top, was very costly: 1 minute and
10 seconds lost overall to the British race
leader, who is now firmly in control of
cyclings showcase race.
When we got up onto that last climb and we
heard the big names that were struggling and
getting dropped ... I turned to the guys who
were still with me at that point it was Wouter
Poels, Richie Porte and Geraint Thomas and
just said, Guys, come on lets on push on here.
Weve got them in trouble, Froome said.
I couldnt have asked for it to go any better.
For his rivals, it couldnt have been much
worse.
Closest to Froome is still Tejay van
Garderen, the American leader of the BMC
team. But hes 2 minutes, 52 seconds behind
overall. Quintana, runner-up to Froome in
2013, trails by 3:09, in third. Contador
slipped back to sixth overall, 4:04 behind.

Indian cricket teams banned two years


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW DELHI Indian Premier League teams


Chennai Super Kings and Rajasthan Royals
were suspended for two years and two officials
banned for life by a Supreme Court-appointed
committee on Tuesday following a corruption
scandal.
The committee of three judges, headed by
former chief justice Rajendra Lodha, made
the sanctions binding on the Board of
Control for Cricket in India, though they

can be appealed in court.


The committee noted Chennai team principal Gurunath Meiyappan and Rajasthan coowner Raj Kundra bet on IPL games or were in
contact with illegal gamblers, bringing the
game, BCCI, and IPL into disrepute. It also
said the teams had to be responsible for their
officials.
Meiyappan is the son-in-law of
International Cricket Council chairman
Narainaswamy Srinivasan, who was earlier
restricted by the court from running for anoth-

er term as president of the BCCI owing to a


conflict of interest. His company, India
Cements, held a stake in the Chennai franchise.
Justice Lodha predicted the decisions of his
committee would stand.
The committee said Meiyappan regularly
bet on IPL matches.
The fact that Gurunath was an integral part
of CSK, and most people saw him as the face
of the team, he ought not to have indulged in
betting practices, the committee said.

On Kundra, who is married to Indian film


actress Shilpa Shetty, the committee said:
That the allegation of match-fixing against
Kundra was not finally established does not
matter because his status as owner has brought
disrepute.
According to IPL rules, a team can be suspended if its officials bring the tournament
into disrepute.
The argument that these acts were personal
and the franchise cannot be responsible cannot be accepted, Justice Lodha said.

Sagasty notched just two strikeouts,
relying on his infield throughout. Catcher
Dylan McDonald bailed his starter out of
trouble in the first when, with two on and
one out, the relatively young backstop
fired to first baseman Ray Falk, behind a
San Carlos runner, for an impressive backdoor pickoff.
Hes probably done that a few times (this
season), Powers said. Thats between him
and Ray. Thats the communication. So we
give them the green light to do it.
In the second inning, San Carlos Max
Michelini led off with a single. But the
Pacifica infield wiped the slate clean with a
groundball double play started by second
baseman Mills Notmeyer, to shortstop Nate
Gordon to Falk.
Later in the game, Berghammer turned in a
nice running catch in the outfield to record
the first out of the sixth inning amid
Sagastys string of retiring nine straight batters.
At the plate, Pacifica banged out eight
hits, including RBI doubles from
Berghammer and McDonald in the third
inning. Berghammer has been a staple in
the middle of the Pacifica batting order for
several years now. But McDonald is the new
kid in the mix.
For the past two seasons, Joey Pledger
has manned the backstop position for
Pacifica. Although Pledger recently completed his junior year at Terra Nova, he did
not play Joe DiMaggio ball this summer,
creating an opportunity for McDonald to
split time behind the plate with Mills
Notmeyer.
Despite McDonald receiving plenty of
playing time after starting 21 of 25 games

team in 2015 he said he was disappointed

slider. With the cutter, he grips it the same as


the slider, but doesnt have to turn over his
wrist, which is less taxing on his arm.
The [cutter] has really helped me to elevate
my game, Tuivailala said. And Im really
trying to figure out how to keep that going.
It has been a work in progress for the 22year-old right-hander, though, who has
been recalled to the big leagues three times
this season.
Cardinals farm director Gary LaRocque was
quick to point out, however, that Tuivailala
has only been pitching professionally since
2012, after being drafted in the third round
out of Aragon as an infielder in 10.
The biggest thing is, hes still learning the
importance of fastball command, LaRocque
said. But hes really working at it. And its a
credit to him how far hes come so quickly.
After a fast start in Memphis, during which
time he yielded no earned runs in his first
eight appearances in April, he joined St.
Louis for one outing against the Pirates, tabbing two innings until getting knocked out
by a Pedro Alvarez home run in an eventual 32 Cardinals victory.
Tuivailala spent the rest of May bouncing
back-and-forth between St. Louis and
Memphis, while getting a little tattered at both
levels in the process. Since being optioned a
second time late in May, he has found his footing, surrendering just three earned runs in 17
2/3 minor league innings. He said the reason
was his confidence in the cutter.
I was really focusing on using my fastballchangeup, Tuivailala said. After I got sent
back down they talked to me and said if you
want to be up here, we think the cutter will

SAFETY
Continued from page 11
To do things the way we used to is idiotic.
There can be some confusion as to what the
term full contact means. Sell said the definition of full contact is a drill in which a ball
carrier is taken to the ground or the outcome
is not predetermined. If there is any battle to
get to a ball carrier or to prevent the ball carrier from being tackled, it is considered full
contact, even if the runner does not go to the
ground. Its a drill Sell calls Thud which
is common practice used in football.
If, on the other hand, a drill is used with a
predetermined winner one in which the
offense of defense is expected to win
that is not considered full contact.
It would not surprise me at all if some people have a hard time grasping the concept
that thud is full contact. They dont want to
believe, Sell said.
There is an old-school train of thought with
the belief that to have a team tough enough
for game days, hitting during practice is a
necessary evil.
Hogwash, Lavorato said.
When you play football, youre a tough
guy. You dont have to prove to anybody
youre tough. Youre tough because you

ordered the NCAA to pay $1.5 million in


costs and expenses. OBannons side wanted about $50.8 million.
NCAA spokeswoman Stacey Osburn said
the governing body would have no comment on the ruling in the Northern District
of California.

down a landmark decision against the NCAA
by ruling in favor of OBannon. He had
argued college athletes should be paid for

Wilkens decision has been appealed.
actually really help you. It kind of stuck with
me just because my stuff did belong here, so I
needed to make an adjustment. And I needed
something help out the fastball.
Tuivailala said he felt the cutter was still a
work in progress upon his most recent promotion. When he took the ball Sunday, however, amid a 3-3 tie in the ninth inning,
catcher Yadier Molina kept putting the fingers down for the cutter. The result was his
setting down the side in order on 10 pitches,
including retiring the side on a pop out by the
pinch-hitting Alvarez.
They made me throw it in a game and
it was day and night for me, Tuivailala said.
It really shocked me as far as how it played
out for me.
In lieu of being ineligible to participate in
the Triple-A All-Star Game, Tuivailala is
spending the All-Star break in St. Louis,
where the Cardinals open the second half of
the season hosting the New York Mets. Still,
he said earning his first professional All-Star
nod was an honor.
It was cool to see that my hard word paid off
and everyone else is seeing that Ive been performing pretty good, Tuivailala said. Its
always good to hear that youre an All-Star.

All-Star Duvall finishes first half big


The lone selection to the PCLAll-Star squad
from Giants affiliate Sacramento is infielder
Adam Duvall, who wound down the first half
of the season in style.
Duvall bulled into the home run lead in the
PCL with a 3-for-4, three-home run day in
Saturday's 7-3 loss to Fresno. Duvall is batting .270 with 20 home runs and 60 RBIs
through his second season in Triple-A.
Other notable Triple-A All-Star selections
this season include an International League
tandem of Chicago White Sox farmhands in
former Cal right-hander Erik Johnson, as
well as outfielder Trayce Thompson,

guard Klay Thompson.
play, Lavorato said.
Added Sell: In our heyday (at Aragon), we
had some of the most physical teams around
and we did not beat our kids up at practice. You
dont have to hit in practice to be physical.
Lavoratos program is proof a team doesnt
have to bang heads all week to be successful
on the weekend. Lavorato said his team
spends an inordinate amount of time on form
tackling early in the season. They also stress
repetition as the road to success, more so
than trying to out-muscle every opponent.
Sell said its that repetition that turns kids
into better players. When a player constantly
drills the same routine over and over again,
the amount of confidence a player has in himself grows, which is turn leads to a more sure
tackler.
As you teach, as kids learn, as they get
more confident in their ability to tackle
youre confident when you come in contact
with the ball, Sell said. Theyll be more
physical because theyre secure in what
theyre doing.
There is no way to legislate all risk out of
sports, especially one like football. But
there are ways to make sure the game is as safe
as it can be.
You cant hide from what is happening,
Sell said. I have a hard time criticizing anything that keeps this game safer.
There are certainly some people who will
be dragged into the 21st century.

Tiger not buried and done


By Doug Ferguson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ST. ANDREWS, Scotland


Winless in nearly two years, Tiger
Woods at least has experience on
his side at St. Andrews.
It has been 20 years since he
first played the Old Course as a 19year-old amateur and heard the
secret was to hit it hard and hit it
left. After playing the British
Open four times at St. Andrews,
and winning twice, he realized that
wasnt the case. There are bunkers
to avoid and angles to create, and
it can change with the slightest
shift in direction of the notorious
wind.
Whether thats enough to carry
him this week depends more on
his golf, which he says is not as
hopeless as it might appear.
Im still young. Im not 40
yet, said Woods, who has five
months left in his 30s. I know
some of you guys think Im buried
and done, but Im still right here
in front of you. Yeah, I love playing. I love competing, and I love
playing these events.
He just doesnt win them his
last major was the 2008 U.S. Open
and its rare he even contends
since he chose last year to change
his swing about the same time he
was trying to recover from another round of injuries.
Hope comes from more than just
his affection for St. Andrews.
Woods said the way he struck the
ball in his last tournament round
a 67 at The Greenbrier Classic
to tie for 32nd was as good as
he has in two years.

That
was
awfully nice to
be able to do
coming
into
this week, he
said. Ive hit
the ball just as
well in my practice rounds.
If thats the
Tiger Woods
case,
that
would make this an important
week because it would be the first
time since his last victory
August 2013 at Firestone that
he goes into a major with good
health and a reasonable idea what
to expect.
Consider his last four majors:
He was out three months
because of back surgery, missed
the cut in his return at
Congressional, and then had his
worst 72-hole finish in a major at
the British Open.
He withdrew in the final round
at Firestone after jarring his lower
back, showed up late for the PGA
Championship and missed the cut.
He took two months off to fix
a short game in disarray and
returned at the Masters, where he
tied for 17th. Woods said he had a
chance to win at Augusta
National, but he was 10 shots
behind going into the final round
and ended up 13 shots behind
Jordan Spieth
He shot the worst score of his
career (85) at the Memorial, and
then posted his highest 36-hole
score (156) to miss the cut at the
U.S. Open.
Obviously,
the
previous
majors were a little bit more diffi-

ALL-STAR
Continued from page 11
Fielder and Lorenzo Cain had run-scoring
hits in the fifth against Kershaw, the reigning
NL MVP, that put the AL ahead 3-1.
Manny Machado, at 23 another of the
sports fresh faces, hit a double off the rightfield wall against Francisco Rodriguez in the
seventh and scored on Fielders sacrifice fly.
And Brian Dozier, the last player added to the
game as an injury replacement, hit a solo home
run off Mark Melancon in the eighth.
Stars old and young gathered in one of baseballs most traditional towns. The Reds
became baseballs first professional team in
1869, and players wore caps with horizontal
stripes in an attempt at a 19th century feel.
Pete Rose, Cincinnatis hometown hero and
baseballs banned career hits leader, was given
an 80-second ovation when he walked onto the
field before the game to join Johnny Bench,
Joe Morgan and Barry Larkin, elected by fans
as the Reds greatest players. Wearing a red
jacket and tie and walking stiffly, the now 74year-old Charlie Hustle was applauded as soon
as his image appeared on the video boards,
even before he emerged from the AL dugout.
And in the first All-Star Game at Great
American Ballpark, which opened in 2003,
fans got to see some great ballplayers.
Bench, changed into a blue jacket, returned
with Hank Aaron, Mays and Sandy Koufax,
voted baseballs great living players by fans
as part of the promotion. In a sentimental yet
stunning reminder of generational change,
Aaron, 81, and Morgan, 71, needed canes to
reach the infield, and Mays, 84, was aided on
and off the field by an assistant.
Above the field, new Commissioner Rob
Manfred watched from a luxury suite, the first
All-Star Game not presided over by Bud Selig
since 1992.
Many players of the new generation love
bling in a manner that puzzles Hall of Famers:
Posey wore a gold-colored helmet behind the
plate, looking a bit like the Great Gazoo or a
Praetorian Guard, accessorizing with a chest

cult, Woods said. Last year,


coming off surgery on my back
and trying to get back and trying
to get my feels back, meanwhile
trying to making a swing change
all at the same time was very difficult. I had some pretty apparent
flaws in my technique.
He called The Greenbrier, where
he finished six shots out of the
lead, a very, very good sign.
Experience should not be dismissed at the home of golf. Tony
Lema in 1964 was the last player
to win a British Open at St.
Andrews without ever having competed on the Old Course. Louis
Oosthuizen (2010 winner) and
John Daly (1995) previously
played the Dunhill Cup.
Thats one obstacle facing
Spieth, who is trying to become
the first player to capture the
Masters, U.S. Open and British
Open in the same year. He did play
a practice round on his way to the
Walker Cup in 2011. And he
played 18 holes upon his arrival
Monday from his playoff win at
the John Deere Classic.
Still, the betting favorite is a
21-year-old Old Course rookie.
You need to learn it. The course
changes so much with different
wind directions, said Justin Rose,
who won the St. Andrews Links
Trophy as an amateur and is a regular at the Dunhill Links on the
European Tour. You get a better
idea of where the better angles are,
where the better layups are with
certain winds, and the pin placement can change so much when
you have greens that are 60 to 100
yards wide or long.

protector, shin guards and cleats all with goldcolored trim. Baltimores Adam Jones was
shod in bright orange cleats, and Kansas
Citys Lorenzo Cain and Washingtons Bryce
Harper donned golden spikes.
Trout, a Generation Y star with a baby
boomer work ethic, completed a unique cycle
on a clear evening that followed a heavy afternoon downpour. He singled in his All-Star
debut in 2012, doubled to open 2013 game and
tripled in the first inning last year. He was just
the ninth player to hit for an All-Star cycle in
his entire career, joining an illustrious list that
includes Hall of Famers Ted Williams, Roberto
Clemente, Ernie Banks, George Brett, Mike
Schmidt and Mays. Fielder later became the
10th.
No one had homered leading off an All-Star
Game since 1977 at old Yankee Stadium, when
Morgan connected off Jim Palmer. Greinke,
coming off five scoreless outings, had not
allowed a run since June 13.
Its not easy, Greinke said of pitching to
Trout. Youve got like a 2-inch window up in
the zone. If you throw it higher than that, he
takes it. If you throw it lower he does what he
did.
Dallas Keuchel, the AL starter with the long,
bushy beard, gave up the tying run in the second after Paul Goldschmidt led off with a
bouncer to third, reaching on an infield single
and taking second as Josh Donaldson threw
wildly. Goldschmidt crossed on Poseys
groundout and Jhonny Peralta, an All-Star
again after serving a 50-game drug suspension
two years ago, dumped a two-out single into
right field.
It was the most amped up Ive ever been,
the Houston star said. It was just the atmosphere the greatest players ever, Pete Rose,
Hank Aaron, Willie Mays.
The AL went back on top in the fifth against
Kershaw, the first NL pitcher voted the leagues
MVP since 1968. Fielder lined an oppositefield single to left that scored Trout, who raced
home from second to slide in ahead of Joc
Pedersons throw, and Cain pulled the next
pitch down the left-field line for an RBI double.
Andrew McCutchen homered off Chris
Archer in the sixth, cutting the gap to 3-2.

Iran deal: Fine new chapter or historic mistake?


By Julie Pace, Matthew Lee and George Jahn
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

REUTERS

British Foreign Secretary Philip Hammond, second right, Secretary of State John Kerry, right, and European Union High
Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Federica Mogherini, left, talk to Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad
Javad Zarif as they wait for Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov (not pictured) for a group picture in Vienna, Austria.

VIENNA Overcoming decades of hostility, Iran, the


United States, and five other world powers struck a historic
accord Tuesday to check Tehrans nuclear efforts short of
building a bomb. The agreement could give Iran access to
billions in frozen assets and oil revenue, stave off more
U.S. military action in the Middle East and reshape the
tumultuous region.
The deal sets in motion a years-long test of Irans willingness to keep its promises to the world and the ability
of international inspectors to monitor compliance. It also
sets the White House up for a contentious fight with a wary
Congress and more rocky relations with Israel, whose leaders furiously opposed the agreement.
Appealing to skeptics, President Barack Obama declared
that the accord offers an opportunity to move in a new
direction. We should seize it.
Under terms of the deal, the culmination of 20 months of
arduous diplomacy, Iran must dismantle much of its nuclear
program in order to secure relief from biting sanctions that
have battered its economy. International inspectors can
now press for visits to Irans military facilities, though
access is not guaranteed. Centrifuges will keep spinning,
though in lesser quantities, and uranium can still be
enriched, though at lower levels.
In a key compromise, Iran agreed to continuation of the
U.N.s arms embargo on the country for up to five more
years and ballistic missile restrictions for up to eight years.
Washington had sought to keep the arms ban in place,
while Russia and China joined Iran in pushing for an immediate suspension.
On the streets of Tehran, Iranians honked their horns and
celebrated in the citys main square. President Hassan
Rouhani said a new chapter had begun in his nations relations with the world, even as he denied Iran had ever pursued
a nuclear weapon.
While the U.S. partnered in the talks with Britain,
France, Germany, Russia and China, the decades of tensions
between the U.S. and Iran put the two countries at the forefront of the negotiations.
Whether the nuclear rapprochement will spark a broader
thaw is unclear. Nearly 40 years after Irans Islamic revolution and the hostage-taking at the U.S. Embassy in Tehran,
the countrys hardliners remain hostile toward Washington.
The U.S. and its allies also have deep concerns about Irans
support for terrorism in the Middle East and its detention of
several American citizens.
With key restrictions on Irans nuclear program required
for only a decade, opponents of the deal say it simply
delays Tehrans pursuit of the bomb. Critics also say Iran
will use new wealth from sanctions relief to double-down
other destabilizing activities in the region.

Embattled Israeli leader faces


tough task fighting nuke deal
By Josef Federman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

JERUSALEM The U.S.-led nuclear deal with Iran on


Tuesday dealt a heavy personal blow to Israels prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, leaving him
at odds with the international community and with few options for scuttling an
agreement he has spent years trying to
prevent.
Netanyahu condemned the deal as a
stunning historic mistake, saying it
would not prevent Iran from gaining
nuclear weapons capability. It also did
nothing to address the Islamic
Benjamin
Republics support for hostile militant
Netanyahu
groups, he said.
Addressing reporters in English, a grim-faced Netanyahu
said he was not bound by the deal, which eases sanctions in
exchange for curbs on the suspect Iranian nuclear program,
and strongly hinted that military action remains an option.
Israel is not bound by this deal with Iran because Iran
continues to seek our destruction, he said. We will always
defend ourselves.
While Netanyahus opposition to the deal was shared by
his political rivals, translating that sentiment into action
wont be easy. A planned lobbying blitz in the U.S.
Congress appears to have slim odds of success, and the military option would carry grave risks and plunge Israel into
deep isolation.
For Netanyahu, the deal represented perhaps one of the
greatest defeats of his three-decade-long political career.
Netanyahu has spent years lecturing audiences about the
dangers of a nuclear-armed Iran, often describing his battle
against Iran as the mission of his lifetime. He has railed
against Iran in high-profile speeches at the United Nations,
and last March, voiced his opposition to the emerging deal
in a speech to the U.S. Congress that enraged the White
House.

DIY granola lets you have it your way any time of day
By Alison Ladman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

The best part of homemade granola isnt


that its cheaper. Or even that you can make
it with healthier ingredients.
The best part of homemade granola is that
you can customize it to be exactly the way
you like it. Do you prefer it with gobs of
peanuts and chocolate chips, but your store
brand never has enough? Dump them in.
Same goes for dried fruits, sweeteners, nuts,
pretzel chunks, whatever you crave. DIY
granola is the ultimate have-it-your-way
food.
It also happens to be an excellent choice
for when the kids head back to school. Its
great at breakfast with yogurt or applesauce, packs easily into lunches, and even
can be sprinkled over ice cream for dessert
(or a particularly indulgent afterschool
snack).
Our granola recipe is a great starting
point, but customize it as you see fit.
Combinations to consider include: coconut-

almond-chocolate; lemon zest and sunflower seeds with dried pineapple and
mango; and pistachio-cherry-white chocolate.

CINNAMON-CITRUS GRANOLA
WITH PEPITAS AND CASHEWS
If you decide to customize this recipe,
note that chocolate, peanuts, pretzels and
dried fruit should be stirred in after the rest
of the granola has baked and cooled.

Salad for kids who refuse to


eat any of those icky greens
By Alison Ladman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

You dont understand it. Your child


used to devour any vegetable. Any
color. Any taste. You were so proud.
Then reality struck and suddenly
your darling little omnivore hated
HATED, I say! anything that even
resembled a vegetable.
Anything leafy and green or broccoli-like became particularly suspect. Well, welcome to the real world
of parenting.
We are told that eventually the kids
will outgrow this frustrating stage.
We are told that when they are 30 they
wont still wail when presented with
salad at dinner.
And we cling to those assurances
for comfort.
In the meantime, we created this
child-friendly (OK, maybe just friendlier) salad with no greens (except
some celery, which is easily left out

foolhardy) attempt to help you get
something healthy into your delightful offspring.
If your kid prefers finger food, feel
free to leave everything in bigger
chunks so they can pick and eat each
item one at a time.

Start to finish: 45 minutes (15 minutes active)


Servings: 6
1 medium cucumber, peeled
1 pint grape tomatoes, quartered
1 small summer squash, diced
Kosher salt
1/3 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon honey
Ground black pepper
3 stalks celery, diced
1 yellow or orange bell pepper,
cored and diced

Slice the cucumber in half lengthwise, then use a spoon to scrape out
and discard the seeds from each half.
Cut each half in half lengthwise
again, then chop the lengths into
1/4-inch-thick chunks.
In a large colander set over the sink
or a bowl, mix together the cucumber,
tomatoes and squash. Sprinkle liberally with salt, then toss again so the
salt is evenly distributed. Set aside
for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes, pat
the vegetable mixture dry, spreading
it out on paper towels.
In a medium bowl, combine the
mayonnaise with the vinegar, honey
and a hefty pinch of pepper. Add the
vegetables, along with the celery and
bell pepper. Stir well.

Dinner in a bag that isnt takeout


By M elissa DArabian
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Life is busy. We dont always have the


luxury of thumbing through our favorite
cookbooks, marking appealing recipes
with sticky notes for dinners sometime
off in the future when we will somehow
have time to salt-cure a cod or dry-age a
side of beef in our garage fridge.
Sometimes, we just need to get dinner
on the table. It doesnt have to be fancy,
but it should still be tasty and nutritious.
Enter the chicken leg and thigh!
Often overlooked by the healthy cook
due to its higher fat content, dark chicken meat is underappreciated. Yes, the
dark meat has a few more grams of fat
than the white meat of the breasts (a 3
1/2-ounce serving of breast meat has
about 4 grams of fat, while the same
amount of dark meat has just under 6
grams). And the higher cholesterol of
the dark meat means the breast probably
still should be in your rotation.
But chicken legs and thighs are luscious in texture and full of flavor and
protein (about 28 grams per serving).
They also are much lower in saturated fat
than most cuts of red meat, and they
offer more iron per serving than chicken
breasts. Perhaps most important of all
for the busy weeknight cook is that
bone-in dark meat chicken is very forgiving in terms of cooking time. Which
is to say, it is very hard to overcook
dark chicken meat.
So on weeknights when my husband
and I both have to work and one daughter has dance and the other three have
soccer, lacrosse and more soccer, I totally appreciate the forgiveness offered by
the dark meat.
One of my favorite weeknight chicken leg and thigh strategies is to load
them up in a large plastic bag in the
morning, dump in some veggies and a
quick marinade, then just toss the
whole thing into the refrigerator to sit
all day. After work, I dump the contents
of the bag into a baking dish and pop it
into the oven while I change into
something more comfortable (by

which I mean sweats). Dinner, done!

WEEKNIGHT LEMON
CHICKEN DINNER-IN-A-BAG
Start to Finish: 1 hour, plus marinating
Servings: 4
8 bone-in chicken drumsticks or
thighs, or a mix
1/4 cup lemon juice
1/4 cup olive oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 teaspoons dried thyme
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
(optional)
Kosher salt and ground black pepper
1 large red or yellow onion, cut into 8
wedges
4 medium red potatoes, halved
Using a paper towel in each hand to
help grip the chicken pieces, remove

and discard the skin by pulling it off.


In a 2-gallon zip-close plastic bag,
mix together the lemon juice, olive oil,
garlic, thyme, red pepper flakes (if
using), and a hefty pinch each of salt
and pepper. Add the chicken, onion and
potatoes, seal the bag and gently turn
over several times to evenly coat the
contents with the marinade. Refrigerate
for at least 30 minutes or up to 12 hours,
turning the bag once or twice if convenient.
When ready to cook, heat the oven to
375 F. Coat a rimmed baking sheet with
cooking spray. Dump the contents of
the bag onto the pan, spread into an
even layer, then bake uncovered until
the chicken registers 175 F at the thickest parts, about 40 minutes. If the potatoes and onions brown too quickly on
one side, turn them for more even cooking.

OFFICE
Continued from page 1
1,750 square feet of retail businesses
on a roughly one-half acre property
at the intersection of Highland
Avenue and California Drive, near the
Burlingame Caltrain station.
Many of the comments reflected
concerns regarding the size, scope
and design of the 55-foot building,
which also features a roof deck and
additional design elements such as a
canopy, which would raise the height
of the structure to roughly 65 feet.
Commissioner Richard Terrones,
according to video of the meeting,
noted the contrast in heights between
the proposed design of the new building, which would be constructed at
the site of the former Fine Consign
furniture store, and other nearby businesses.
I just want to make sure that the
project can fit in and doesnt stand
out like a 6-foot-10 person in a sea of
5-foot-tall people, he said.
Many commissioners commended
the look and design of the proposed
building, but most questioned
whether it fell in line with the other
architectural styles that currently
exist in Burlingame.
Commissioner Michael Gaul said it
looked more like a development that
would match the character of downtown San Francisco, and doubted
whether that was the correct approach
for its surroundings.
Its a handsome building but I
think the architecture should fit the
town of Burlingame more, he said.
Linda Field, a Burlingame resident,
echoed those sentiments.
It is far and away too tall, she
said. It will stick out like a sore
thumb.
Joan Endo, who owns nearby Sakae
Sushi, said she fears for how the proj-

ect will impact her business, should


it be approved for construction.
Commissioners made no formal
decision during the meeting, and
only provided feedback on initial
proposed design and potential environmental impact of the development.
Andres Grechi, a representative
with MBH Architects who designed
the project, defended the layout of the
proposed building and said the height
was necessary to make the project
appear cohesive.
He said he believed the project
could be a landmark for the region.
It can set a precedent for this
area, he said.
The Dewey Land Company, a San
Mateo-based development firm, proposed the project. The company also
redeveloped the site that currently
houses City National Bank, 1450
Chapin Ave.
Other issues plaguing the development are related to parking and traffic
flow, especially cars exiting the
building, according to opinions
expressed during the meeting.
Drivers leaving the three-floor
parking structure proposed to be built
below ground who are trying to
access nearby Howard Avenue would
be directed down Hatch Lane to the
west, according a city report.
that Syufy owns.
Century 12 closed in 2003 and plans
to redevelop it over the years never
materialized.
In 2004, a project called Bayside
Gardens was proposed for the property
that included 600 rental apartments
with a retail component.
The land is zoned currently for office
park uses.
The new concept includes a mention
of office and retail uses for the housing
component of the project with no

THE DAILY JOURNAL

But commissioners questioned the


capacity of Hatch Lane to accommodate the demand of cars that would
visit the offices and shops, and noted
the citys potential interest in converting the thoroughfare into a commercial space connecting Burlingame
and Howard avenues, rather than turn
it into a driveway for the office building.
Per city regulations, according to
the proposed size of the project, the
site would need 149 parking spaces,
so the developer is requesting an
exception allowing fewer available
spots.
Each floor of underground parking
would offer 31 spots, along with six
tandem spaces, and 22 spaces would
be accessible through a puzzle parking stacking mechanism, which
would use a lift to shuffle cars in an
independent structure.
Gaul though was not satisfied with
the amount of space set aside for cars
in the proposal.
I think the parking is a huge problem here, he said.
The proposed project is within
minutes of walking distance from the
downtown Burlingame Caltrain station, and city officials recently
selected a developer to build public
parking garages on city-owned parking lots south of Howard Avenue.
Despite the variety of other concerns expressed during the meeting,
the prevailing sentiment was the
project as proposed did not blend
with its surrounding.
I like this building, said
Commissioner Will Loftis. I dont
think it fits in, unfortunately.
The project will come back to the
commission in the future for further
review of design and environmental
impact.
