City to adopt ambitious budget


Redwood City adds to workforce; capital
improvements projects total $20 million
By Bill Silverfarb
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

The Redwood City Council is about to


adopt a $111.7 million General Fund budget
that includes adding new police officers and
other staff and more than $20 million in
major capital improvement projects.
The total proposed fiscal year 2016-17
budget tentatively shows the citys General
Fund revenue at $111. 9 million with
expenses being about $200, 000 less,
according to a report by Starla JeromeRobinson, the citys interim finance director.
The council will also approve $143.6 million in spending from enterprise funds (or
restricted) such as sewer, roads and parking.
The General Fund budget represents a 9.6
percent increase over last years budget
which amounts to about $9.8 million in
additional spending.
The city will add a new police officer at a
cost of $250,000; a police dispatcher at
$160,000; a senior engineering technician
at $157,000; and part-time firefighter at
$88,000.
Some temporary positions will also be
added to the citys workforce next year such
as two building inspectors at a cost of
$314,000; a city attorney at $157,000; and
housing secretary at $60,000.
No reserves were needed to balance the
budget.
Its our strong position to never use
reserves for ongoing expenses, Mayor
John Seybert said Thursday.
The citys entire budget is $255.3 million
which includes $32.3 million in capital
projects.
Major projects the city will undertake
next fiscal year, which begins July 1,

High school district shoots down charter


By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

The effort to launch a new charter school


in the Sequoia Union High School District
faced narrow defeat, under a decision by officials who felt the innovative and unconventional program is too risky and likely to
fail.
The district Board of Trustees voted 3-2,
with trustees Chris Thomsen and Carrie Du
Bois dissenting, in support a recommendation from district administrators to reject
the Oxford Day Academy charter application.
School founder Mallory Dwinal though
said she remains committed to the vision of
the school she has crafted to serve students
from East Palo Alto and plans to appeal the
boards decision to the San Mateo County
Office of Education.
Dwinals model focuses on students splitting time between a classroom and working
on service projects with neighborhood
organizations, in an effort to hone a passion for community activism.
Despite the unconventional design, she
said she believed in the merits of the program, and encouraged officials to buy into
her out-of-the-box thinking.
In the heart of Silicon Valley, if anywhere, we need to be open to the idea of taking an innovative leap, she said.
Especially when the alternative is more
dangerous for the students involved.

In the heart of Silicon Valley, if anywhere, we need


to be open to the idea of taking an innovative leap. ... Especially
when the alternative is more dangerous for the students involved.
Mallory Dwinal, Oxford Day Academy founder

Sarver though noted the district is open to


adopting creative educational initiatives,
citing the variety of district charters already
in operation, as well as the middle college
program started in collaboration with the
San Mateo County Community College
District and the small school focused on science, technology, engineering and mathematics curriculum set to open in Menlo Park
in coming years, among other programs.
The reticence of officials to approve the
charter stemmed not from a reluctance to
adopt new ideas, but the need to ensure all
programs under the district umbrella are
fully vetted and practical, said Sarver.
The concern of the board was not anything about the innovative nature of the
program or the idea of looking to tailor a
school along cutting research for the best
value of a particular population, he said.
It was that we felt there were substantial
areas of operation where it was going to
have significant difficulty meeting the
promises of the charter and staying afloat.
A murky strategy for adequately staffing
the school and uncertainties regarding the
accountability program to ensure students
were learning while out of the classroom

were among the primary concerns Sarver


identified.
Those issues, as well as questions regarding the schools budget, curriculum, facilities and more, were pinpointed by officials
in a district report recommending the board
deny the charter.
Sarver said ultimately a majority of board
members felt the program was unfit to operate.
It was not a risk that we were comfortable with, and that we felt was safe and
appropriate for children at this time, he
said.
Dwinal though said she plans to take her
fight forward in an appeal to the county
board, to which she can argue the merits of
her program in hopes officials are more
receptive to her vision. Should the county
agree with the high school district officials, she would be able to ultimately appeal
to a state board for a final decision.
She said she disagrees with many of the
comments from high school district officials regarding the impracticality of her
program, and attributed their opposition to
a misunderstanding of her vision.
In the days ahead of going before the

county board, she said she plans to work on


more clearly conveying the perceived value
of the program.
We have such a different model, Im still
not doing as good of a job as I need to as the
leader to help them fully understand what
the model is, she said. This is very different, and Im not there yet in terms of fully
helping people understand and see what it
is.
Sarver said the board acknowledged such a
concern, and offered Dwinal an opportunity
to return later with a more clearly defined
plan, but she indicated an unwillingness to
accept.
We did invite Oxford Day Academy to
withdraw their petition and return later and
come back with more details and clarity, but
the indication was they felt it was a completely adequate proposal as is, and should
be approved without change, Sarver said.
Ultimately, state education law is written
in favor of charter applications, so Dwinal
believes her school will receive the necessary approval.
Sarver acknowledged the favorable environment for charter applications too, but
said many district officials deemed the program too risky to approve in good conscience.
The sense of our board was that we would
be risking nothing in particular about the
school district, but instead the successful
outcomes of the students and we were
unwilling to do that, he said.

Bernie Sanders prepares to speak for a video to supporters at Polaris Mediaworks.

Sanders: I will work with


Clinton to transform party
By Ken Thomas
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BURLINGTON, Vt. Democratic


presidential candidate Bernie Sanders
said Thursday in an address to his supporters that he will work with Hillary
Clinton to transform the Democratic
Party, adding that his political revolution must continue and ensure the
defeat of Republican Donald Trump.
Sanders said in a capstone
livestream address to his political followers that the major task they face is
to make certain Trump is defeated.
The Vermont senator said he plans to
begin his role in that process in a
very short period of time.
But defeating Donald Trump cannot
be our only goal. We must continue
our grassroots efforts to create the
America that we know we can
become, Sanders said, pointing to
his 1,900 delegates at the upcoming
Democratic National Convention in
Philadelphia.
Sanders spoke from his Vermont
hometown a week after Clinton
secured enough pledged delegates and
superdelegates to become the presumptive nominee. He did not concede
the race, nor did he refer to Clinton as

the likely nominee,


instead offering a
lengthy list of policy proposals he
hopes
to
see
approved by the
party.
The two rivals
met Tuesday night
Hillary Clinton at a Washington,
D.C., hotel to discuss policy goals and future plans.
Sanders said that while it is no
secret that he and Clinton have
strong disagreements on some very
important issues, it was also true
that our views are quite close on others.
He said he looked forward to additional talks between the two campaigns to ensure that his supporters
voices are heard and the convention
adopts the most progressive platform in the partys history.
Sanders said he anticipated working
with Clinton to transform the
Democratic Party so that it becomes a
party of working people and young
people, and not just wealthy campaign contributors.
The speech which could be
Sanders final address before the sum-

mer convention was viewed by


more than 200,000 people, according
to the campaign. It sought to shape
his legacy as a one-time fringe candidate who generated a massive following through sprawling rallies and
threatened Clinton for the nomination.
Looking ahead to the convention,
Sanders said the party must support a
$15-an-hour federal minimum wage,
pay equity for women, a ban on the
sale and distribution of assault
weapons and a defeat of the TransPacific Partnership trade deal.
Sanders thanked his supporters for
providing more than $200 million in
donations, most in increments of
$27, and rattled off what they had
accomplished: 1. 5 million people
who attended his rallies and town
meetings and more than 75 million
phone calls from volunteers urging
their fellow citizens into action.
He encouraged his followers to consider running for political office up
and down the ballot as a way to prevent Republicans from controlling
state and local government. And he
made clear that he intends to leave his
imprint on the fall campaign and
beyond.

WASHINGTON The U.S. battle against the Islamic


State has not yet curbed the groups global reach and as
pressure mounts on the extremists in Iraq
and Syria, they are expected to plot more
attacks on the West and incite violence
by lone wolves, CIA Director John
Brennan told Congress on Thursday.
In a rare open hearing, Brennan gave
the Senate intelligence committee an
update on the threat from Islamic extremists and shared his views on a myriad of
John Brennan other topics, including encryption,
Russia and Syria.
Brennan said IS has worked to build an apparatus to direct
and inspire attacks against its foreign enemies, as in the
recent attacks in Paris and Brussels ones the CIA
believes were directed by the top IS leaders.
ISIL has a large cadre of Western fighters who could
potentially serve as operatives for attacks in the West,
Brennan said, using a different acronym for the group.
Furthermore, as we have seen in Orlando, San
Bernardino and elsewhere, ISIL is attempting to inspire
attacks by sympathizers who have no direct links to the
group.
Brennan said the CIA has not been able to uncover any
direct link between the Orlando shooter and a foreign terrorist organization.

Philadelphia is first
major American city with soda tax
PHILADELPHIA Philadelphia became the first major
American city with a soda tax on Thursday despite a multimillion-dollar campaign by the beverage industry to block
it.
The City Council gave final approval to a 1.5 cent-perounce tax on sugary and diet beverages. The tax is set to
take effect in the city, which markets itself as the place
where the first flavored carbonated beverage was sold, on
Jan. 1.
Only Berkeley, California, has a similar law. Soda tax proposals have failed in more than 30 cities and states, including twice in Philadelphia, in recent years. Such plans are
typically criticized as disproportionately affecting the poor,
who are more likely to consume sugary drinks.

Congress stalemated on guns despite shooting, filibuster


By Erica Werner
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON The slaughter in Florida


and an attention-grabbing filibuster in the
Senate did little to break the election-year
stalemate in Congress over guns Thursday,
with both sides unwilling to budge and
Republicans standing firm against any new
legislation opposed by the National Rifle
Association.
Democrats renewed their call to action
after Sen. Chris Murphy, D-Conn., held the
floor along with colleagues in a nearly 15hour filibuster that lasted into the early
hours Thursday.
We cant just wait, we have to make
something happen, said Sen. Cory
Booker, D-N.J., at an emotional news conference where Democrats joined family
members of people killed in recent mass
shootings. These are people bound by brutality, and their numbers are growing.
But Republicans were coolly dismissive
of Democrats demands. Majority Leader
Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., derided Murphys
filibuster as a campaign talk-a-thon that

did nothing but delay potential votes.


Noting that a few Democrats had skipped
a classified briefing on the Florida nightclub shooting to participate in the filibuster, McConnell chided: Its hard to
think of a clearer contrast for serious work
for solutions on the one hand, and endless
partisan campaigning on the other.
Democrats spoke of the need for new gun
legislation. Republicans cited the threat
posed by the Islamic State group, to which
Orlando gunman Omar Mateen swore allegiance while killing 49 people in a gay
nightclub early Sunday. But the two sides
mostly talked past each other, and efforts to
forge consensus quickly sputtered out. As a
result, the Senate faced the prospect of taking dueling votes beginning Monday on
Democratic and GOP bills, all of which
looked destined to fail.
The back-and-forth came as President
Barack Obama visited the victims families
in Orlando, and called on lawmakers to act.
Those who defend the easy accessibility
of assault weapons should meet these families and explain why that makes sense,
Obama said.

McCain: Obama directly


responsible for shooting
By Erica Werner
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

REUTERS

Barack Obama and Joe Biden depart a makeshift memorial after placing flowers in memory of shooting victims
of the massacre at a gay nightclub in Orlando, Fla.

WASHINGTON Republican
Sen. John McCain said Thursday
that President Barack Obama is
directly responsible for the
mass shooting in Orlando,
Florida, because of the rise of the
Islamic State group on the presidents watch. But he later issued a
statement saying that he misspoke.
I did not mean to imply that the
president was personally responsible. I was referring to President
Obamas national security decisions, not the president himself,
McCain said in his statement,
issued as his initial comments
were drawing heated criticism from
Democrats.
McCain, who lost to Obama in
the 2008 presidential election,
spoke to reporters in the Capitol
Thursday while Obama was in
Orlando visiting with the families
of those killed in Sundays attack
and some of the survivors.

B a r a c k
Obama is directly responsible
for it, because
when he pulled
everybody out
of Iraq, al-Qaida
went to Syria,
became ISIS,
John McCain and ISIS is what
it is today
thanks to Barack Obamas failures,
utter failures, by pulling everybody out of Iraq, a visibly angry
McCain said as the Senate debated
a spending bill.
So the responsibility for it lies
with President Barack Obama and
his failed policies, McCain said.
The gunman, Omar Mateen,
killed 49 people and injured more
than 50 in the attack at a gay
nightclub.
The
29-year-old
Muslim born in New York made
calls during the attack saying he
was a supporter of the Islamic
State. But he also spoke about an
affiliate
of
al-Qaida
and
Hezbollah, both of which are IS
enemies.

Obama embraces Orlando families,


appeals for tighter U.S. gun laws Lawmakers read Stanford rape
By Josh Lederman
and Kathleen Hennessey
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ORLANDO, Fla. Embracing


grieving Orlando families and
appealing anew for national
action, President Barack Obama
claimed a threat to all Americans
security Thursday as a strong reason to tighten U.S. gun laws.
Counterterror campaigns overseas,
he declared, can never prevent all
lone wolf attacks like the one
that killed 49 people in Orlando.
Speaking at a makeshift memorial to the victims, Obama said the
massacre at a gay nightclub was
evidence that different steps are
needed to limit the damage a
deranged person set on committing violence can do. He cheered
on Democrats push for new gun
control measures, including a new
ban on assault weapons and stricter

background checks.
Although he showed little hope
the measures would find much support among most opponents,
Obama seemed to be aiming for
other
lawmakers,
perhaps
Republican hawks eager to get
behind counterterror campaigns
but steadfastly opposed to gun
restrictions.
Obama arrived as Orlando began
the next stage of its grief funerals all over town. A visitation for
one victim, Javier Jorge-Reyes, on
Wednesday night turned out a
crowd of friends, family, drag
queens and motorcyclists to pay
their respects.
Were just here to spread love
and joy and try to put an end to all
the hate, said Ezekiel Davis or,
as hes known to some, Sister
Anesthesia Beaverhausen. Obama
could not miss other signs of a
community coming together in

tragedy. Hundreds of people gathered in 95-degree heat outside the


Amway Center stadium where he
met with families.
Brittany Woodrough came to
honor her close friend, 19-year-old
Jason Benjamin Josaphat.
I just pray for his family and I
cant believe this happened, she
said. Seeing President Obama
here makes it real.
Orlandos calls for solidarity
stood in contrast to the sharpedged political
debate
in
Washington and the presidential
campaign trail that continued during Obamas visit.
Arizona Sen. John McCain, a
Republican and frequent Obama
critic, accused the president of
being directly responsible for
the shooting because, he said,
Obama had allowed the growth of
the Islamic State group on his
watch.

victims letter to her attacker


By Andrew Taylor
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON A bipartisan
group of lawmakers read the
wrenching letter of a woman
whose attacker was given a sixmonth jail term after sexually
assaulting her behind a dumpster
on the Stanford University campus
last year while she was unconscious.
The victims emotional statement in open court to the defendant, former Stanford swimmer
Brock Turner, powerfully details
how the assault has devastated her
life. It was widely shared online and
drew national attention to the case.
The expression of solidarity
with the victim was led by U.S.
Rep. Jackie Speier, D-San Mateo,
who was joined by more than a

dozen others. It
took almost an
hour to read.
The case has
attracted widespread attention
and
outrage
after Turner, 20,
was given such
Jackie Speier a short sentence.
The sexual predator received a
paltry sentence of six months in
county jail, of which he will serve
only three, Speier said in her
introduction. We are not moved
by the judge, who said a longer
sentence would have a severe
impact on the offender. We are not
moved by the felons father, who
said that his son should not serve
jail time for 20 minutes of
action.

People react to tributes to Labour Party MP Jo Cox, who was shot dead in the street in England.

British Labour lawmaker


dies after shooting attack
By Jill Lawless and Gregory Katz
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LONDON A lawmaker who campaigned


for Britain to stay in the European Union was
killed Thursday by a gun- and knife-wielding
attacker in her small-town constituency, a
tragedy that brought the countrys fierce,
divisive referendum campaign to a shocked
standstill.
Jo Cox, a 41-year-old Labour Party legislator who praised the contribution of immigrants to Britain and championed the cause of
war-scarred Syrian refugees, was attacked outside a library in Birstall, northern England,
after a regular meeting with constituents.
Police would not speculate on the attackers motive, but Clarke Rothwell, who runs a
cafe near the scene of the slaying, told the
BBC and Britains Press Association that the
assailant shouted Britain first! several
times. Police did not confirm that account.
Witnesses described a man shooting Cox
several times and then stabbing her as she
lay on the pavement. Police said they had
arrested a 52-year-old man and were not looking for anyone else.

Our working presumption ... is that this is a


lone incident, said Dee
Collins, acting chief constable of West Yorkshire
Police.
British security officials said the shooting
didnt appear to be related
to international terrorJo Cox
ism, but domestic terrorism has not been ruled out.
Residents identified the suspect to the BBC
and other media as Birstall resident Tommy
Mair. Neighbors said Mair was a quiet man
who did gardening jobs for local people.
Violence against British politicians has
been rare since Northern Irelands late-1990s
peace agreement. Cox was the first serving
member of Parliament to be killed in a quarter-century, and figures from all parts of the
political spectrum expressed deep shock.
Both the Vote Leave and Britain Stronger
in Europe campaigns suspended activity
ahead of next weeks vote over whether
Britain should remain a part of the 28-member bloc.

Our justice system

Proposed 2013 sewer rate increase

Editor,
The anger and controversy shown toward
Santa Clara County Judge Aaron Persky for
the light sentence handed to the Stanford
rapist is totally justied. But the signals
being sent constantly by our justice system are denitely confusing and at times
disturbing.
Twenty-three-year-old Sonia Toor was
recently given six months in county jail
for killing 84-year-old Nina Falk Nov. 13,
2014, in the parking lot of the San Mateo
Walgreens store at Ellsworth and Third
avenues. OK, so she also got a few years of
probation, was ordered to undergo counseling and refrain from using alcohol or drugs.
Did I forget to mention she got a week credit?
Apparently she was under the inuence
of marijuana and possible other drugs. She
was facing a possible felony charge with
the consequential 10 years in jail.
I totally fail to understand or see any
logic here. Remorse does not seem to be
present. According to District Attorney
Steve Wagstaffe, she slammed the courtroom door after her sentencing.
We seniors should avoid that parking lot.

The Daily Journal receiv ed a copy of


this letter sent to the San Mateo City
Councilfor the June 20 public hearing
regarding the proposed 2013 sewer rate
increase.
From 2001 to 2014, we had 13 years in
a row ofan average eight percentsewer
rate increase per year every year. These
raises compounded each year effectively
raised the sewer rate by over 250 percent.
Thisis incredible,nowhere near any cost
of living increases.
Interestingly, the 2000-01 year increase
(the oldest figure I have) was only 2.1 percent. In 2015, the sewer rate increase was
raised even higher, 9.93 percent. Now for
2016, you are asked to approve an
increase of 12 percent.
Just think about this: Count the toilets in the old Kmart, the old bowling
alley, the old Dennys, the old police station, the old Bay Meadows race track, and
the other buildings in the Delaware gridlock corridor that have been torn down
and replaced. Compare that number to the
number of toilets in the new developments there now and the buildings currently being constructed. Dont forget the
additional showers, bathtubs, sinks, dishwashers and washing machines. And dont
forget all of the above devices in all new
development in other areas of the city.
It would seem that the impact fees on
sewer connections for new developments
are not sufficient to pay their way to
upgrade the capacity of our sewer treatment plant and sewer pipe upgrades needed. We should not be subsidizing costs
that developers should be paying.
Business as usual, and in this new proposal business costs over 50 percent
increase more than business as usual are
absolutelynot acceptable.
Please responsibly get this proposed
rate increase reduced to a reasonable
amount.

An idea for the GOP


Editor,
In the June 14 edition of the Daily
Journal, columnist John McDowell
bemoans the state of the California
Republican Party and encourages all who
value limited government control over
your life ... not to give up.
The reason that many California women
have given up on the Republican Party is
precisely because of its persistent intrusion into the private realm of womens
health. Women do not need or want the
government to make personal, reproductive decisions for them.
If the Republican Party wants to get back
into the game,the concept of limited government control over your life must be
applied to women as well as to men.

his weekend is Fathers Day and, for


many, it is a chance to reconnect
with their father or express appreciation for the role he has in their lives.
For the young, it perhaps means a drawing
and a card, or a gift bought by Mom. Ties
come to mind. Its a Hallmark holiday, but
one that is meaningful for fathers, though
for some more than others.
It is also a day when those who have lost
their fathers can remember his impact on
their lives and for new fathers to appreciate
the gifts provided to them by their own.
Others have
problematic
relationships
with their
fathers and are
conicted by the
day. Still others
have fathers
who are absent
or hurtful. It is
important to
note, and to be
soothed by, the
impact made by
fathers on their
children. It
doesnt always
have to be positive and lessons can be learned from all.
In the idealized version of life, a father is
there to comfort and cajole, to enliven and
imbue their wisdom. That idealized picture
can be anything. On a soccer eld after a
tough loss. At the kitchen table comforting
a child after a letdown. On the deck grilling
burgers while sharing life stories and providing advice. All idyllic, and not necessarily
real.
We may have our moments like this to
which we can point. I do. But there are others. When we felt let down or ignored. Or
disappointed and alone. Feeling lost without
the guidance we so wanted. Latching on to
those other moments is part of life, but it
can also be painful and not very productive.
For those who do latch onto the latter, you
are missing the point of the day, and of
fatherhood in general. For those who are disappointed, you should know that the father
also knows this as well and perhaps didnt
have the capacity to change or be exactly
what you needed at all times.
Because in reality, no one is perfect, not
even you. But we all have the capacity to
take what we have and cherish it as best we
can. For those who have a loving father, and
that includes most of us, that is really all we
need. Someone who supports us and believes
in us and wants us to be better, perhaps better than they are. For those who have lost a
father, and that includes me, we can cherish
the strength and the vigor and the passion
and the life that was. We dont have to carry
the weakness, because that is a choice we
can make. Instead, we can and should carry
the strength and the love and the good memories. Because that is the point of Fathers
Day.
I once wrote a letter to my father expressing gratitude for what he taught me. The
importance of an ironed shirt, how to marinate a steak and when not to, the value of
looking people in the eye, working hard,
taking care of others and trying to do whats
right. I dont know why I wrote that letter,
but felt compelled at the time. I didnt know
if it meant anything to him.
Years later, he asked me to get me something out of his briefcase for him and I saw
the letter tucked into an inside pocket next
to his legal pads and other work papers
etched with his recognizable yet nearly
illegible scrawl. I was surprised he kept it
and that he kept it with him at all times. It
did mean something, and knowing that
meant more than anything.
Everyone has a father and some are better
than others. But there is no judge who
decides that for sure. It is up to each and
every one of us to make that decision for
ourselves. I had a very good father for what
he taught me, how he loved me and who he
was. And for that I am grateful.
That is what I will think about this
Fathers Day.

NEW YORK Stocks in the


U.S. staged a late afternoon rally
to close moderately higher on

streak.
The Dow Jones industrial average rose 92.93 points, or 0.5 percent, to 17,733.10. It had been

Nasdaq composite rose 9. 98
points, or 0. 2 percent, to

Britain would remain a member of
the European Union. Overseas,
Japanese stocks plunged 3 percent
after the Bank of Japan decided not
to increase its economic stimulus
efforts.
Traders are bracing for a tight

That fell just short of Wall Street expectations. The average estimate of 15 analysts

The software maker posted revenue of
$10.59 billion in the period, topping Street

Zacks expected $10.46 billion.
A year ago, Oracle earned $2.76 billion,

Board OKs tax credit for third


California electric car company
By Juliet Williams
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SACRAMENTO A state board on


Thursday approved $10 million in tax credits for NextEV USA, the latest electric vehicle company to establish its U.S. headquarters in California.
The company with Chinese financing
based in San Jose, California, is the third in
the hyper-competitive electric car market to
receive a multimillion-dollar tax credit from
California Competes, a board that hands out
credits to promote job creation.
NextEV is promising to create more than
900 research and development jobs in
California by 2020 in exchange for the tax
credits, which were among nearly $47 million approved Thursday.
The companys first commercial vehicles
are slated to go to market in China next
year, NextEV attorney Paula Brown told the
board, but the brains and the heart of that
car is Silicon Valley.
NextEV has not decided where to conduct
its manufacturing, but is considering
California, Brown said. The jobs being
added will be primarily in research, engineering and design, and could include a San
Francisco design center, she said.
2019 will be a global vehicle, which

means it has to be much higher safety standards than the vehicle that were planning
for China, Brown said.
Gov. Jerry Browns administration previously awarded $15 million for Tesla for
4,400 jobs. Tesla opted last year to build its
new battery plant in neighboring Nevada.
The administration also approved $12.7
million for Glendale-based Faraday Future,
which has promised to create nearly 2,000
jobs at facilities in Gardena, Rancho
Dominguez, San Jose and Redwood City by
2020. The Chinese-owned company also
has broken ground on a Nevada manufacturing facility.

Other credits approved Thursday:


$6 million to OWB Packers Inc. to create
605 jobs in Brawley, in the Imperial Valley
near the Mexican border.
$3 million to Pabst Brewing Company
to create 328 jobs in northern or central
California.
$3 million to GreenPower Motor
Company Inc., an electric bus manufacturing company, to create 190 jobs in
Porterville.
$1.6 million to Qico Inc., a cremation
equipment manufacturer, to create 80 jobs in
San Diego.

Volkswagen to launch more


electric cars after scandal
By David McHugh
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

FRANKFURT, Germany German


automaker Volkswagen plans to ramp up its
offerings of electric vehicles as it fights to
bounce back from a scandal over diesel cars
rigged to cheat on emissions tests.
The electric campaign is part of a wideranging review of the companys strategy
that also includes increasing profitability,
investing in new ways of getting around
that dont necessarily involve owning a car,
and making the companys management
more open and trustworthy.
CEO Matthias Mueller said Thursday the
company plans to introduce more than 30
electric-powered vehicles by 2025, and to
sell 2 to 3 million of them a year. To support
that ambitious plan, the company wants to

increase its in-house expertise in battery


technology. Improving battery range is
expected to be a key factor in getting more
people to buy electric cars.
Mueller made the announcement as he
unveiled the results of a top-to-bottom
review triggered by the scandal that erupted
in September 2015 and dubbed Together Strategy 2025. The new plan includes a
focus on digital mobility, which could
include things like ride-sharing or car-sharing based on smartphone apps, for instance.
The company also set as a goal increasing
the profitability and controlling costs. That
was particularly true of the core Volkswagen
brand, which is barely making money; most
of the companys profits in the first quarter
came from its luxury brands Audi and
Porsche, which tend to have much higher
profit margins.

Game 6 implosion
By Tim Reynolds
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CLEVELAND Ayesha Curry was angry


about getting into Game 6 of the NBA Finals
later than she planned. Stephen Curry was
steaming when he left the game earlier than
he wanted.
A tough night for the Curry family.
A tougher night for the Golden State
Warriors.
Stephen Curry, the leagues two-time
reigning MVP, was in foul trouble most of
the way and thought most of the calls were in
error especially the one when he fouled
out and got ejected for good measure for a
combination of throwing his mouthpiece
and berating referee Jason Phillips. It was an
inglorious end to a troubling Thursday
night, one where the Warriors lost to the
Cleveland Cavaliers 115-101 in Game 6 to
knot the title series at 3-3.
Ive never been ejected before. It was a
weird feeling, Curry said. It was just frustration and kind of hilarious the way that the
last two fouls and me blowing up kind of
unfolded, some of the things that were said
out there.
He was laughing a bit then, but this is no
joke: The legacy of this season for the
Warriors hinges entirely on the Game 7 that
awaits on Sunday night.
The Warriors havent lost three straight all
season. No team in NBA Finals history has
ever blown a 3-1 lead . And Golden State better hope both of those things still ring true
after the 1,316th and final game of the season, or else their record-setting 73-win regular season will be overshadowed by the
memory of not being able to take home the
biggest prize.
Let me be clear: We did not lose because
of the officiating, Warriors coach Steve
Kerr said. They totally outplayed us and
Cleveland deserved to win. But three of the
six fouls (called on Curry) were incredibly
inappropriate calls for anybody, much less
the MVP of the league.
Draymond Green was a nonfactor,
Harrison Barnes couldnt make a shot and
Andre Iguodalas back was so balky that he

Texas Lewis limits Oakland to just two hits


Rangers 5, As 1

By Josh Dubow
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

OAKLAND Colby Lewis lost his no-hit


bid for Texas in the ninth inning when Max
Muncy opened with a double that glanced off
right fielder Nomar Mazaras glove Thursday
in the Rangers 5-1 victory over the Oakland
Athletics.
Lewis was perfect until walking Yonder
Alonso with two outs in the eighth.
Muncy led off the ninth with a drive to deep
right field. Mazara, a rookie who made a nice
running catch to rob Muncy in the third, ran
hard as he angled back to the corner. Mazara
tracked down this ball but couldnt hold onto
it as he crashed into the padded wall.
Mazara looked at his glove as he retrieved
the ball. Official scorer David Feldman immediately called the play a double, ending
Lewis quest for Texas first no-hitter in 22
years.
Two batters later, Lewis (6-0) lost his

shutout when left fielder


Ryan Rua couldnt make a
diving catch on a blooper
by Coco Crisp that went
for an RBI double.
Lewis walked one and
struck out four, matching
the low-hit complete
game of his career with
Colby Lewis his third two-hitter.
Last September, the 36year-old Lewis also took a perfect game into
the eighth against the As. Danny Valencia
broke that up with a leadoff double.
Lewis was aiming for Texas first no-hitter
since Kenny Rogers threw a perfect game in
1994 and the second in the majors this season after Jake Arrieta did it for the Chicago
Cubs against Cincinnati on April 21.
The As havent been no-hit since four
Baltimore pitchers combined to do it in

1991. Thats the longest stretch any big


league team has gone without being held hitless.
Lewis was barely threatened the first eight
innings as he got the As to swing early in
counts and only got to three balls three times
in the first seven innings. He needed just 16
pitches through the fifth and sixth innings,
retiring Muncy on a bunt attempt in the
sixth.
His bid for perfection ended in the eighth
when he walked Alonso on four straight
pitches with two outs in the eighth. Rua then
made a jumping catch on the warning track to
get Lewis out of that inning.
Lewis flirted with a no-hitter late last season at home against the As, finishing with
one of his three career two-hitters.
Daniel Mengden (0-2) allowed two runs
one earned and four hits in 6 1-3 innings of
his second career start.
Mengden had retired 15 straight batters
before Ian Desmond homered to right leading
off the seventh to give Lewis a 1-0 lead. The

Rangers added another run that inning and


then broke it open with three in the eighth,
including Adrian Beltres two-run double off
Fernando Rodriguez.

Trainers room
As : Oakland still hasnt named a starter
for Saturdays game against the Angels to
replace LHP Sean Manaea, whos on the DL
with a strained left forearm. RHP Henderson
Alvarez, who underwent shoulder surgery last
July and is scheduled to throw a 70-pich rehab
game on Saturday, was an option for
Saturdays game, but manager Bob Melvin
said trainers advised against it.

Up next
As : RHP Kendall Graveman is 0-1 with a
2.12 ERA in three starts against the Los
Angeles Angels. Hes 1-1 with a 4.44 ERA
over his last five starts. Hes pitched less
than five innings in each of his last two starts
and three of his last four starts.

Led by As draftees, Florida has pitching to win NCAA title


By Mark Long
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

GAINESVILLE, Fla. Floridas pitching


staff is widely considered the best in the country, potentially in college baseball history.
The Gators had five pitchers selected in the
top 108 picks of the Major League Baseball
draft last week plenty of talent and depth to
make another deep run in the College World
Series and possibly win the programs first
national championship.
Florida has been close before in Omaha,
Nebraska. But this time the top-seeded Gators
(52-14) feel like that elusive title is realistically within reach. For coach Kevin OSullivans
group, its essentially 60 feet, 6 inches away.
Theres quite a few guys on this pitching
staff that have a chance to pitch for a long
time, OSullivan said. Its not easy to kind of
get all these arms together. First, the recruiting
process and getting them through the draft. And
then getting them to campus and then helping
them get better. And then them actually performing at the highest level.

Theres a lot of things


that go into it.
Florida enters the CWS
having not allowed a run in
22 consecutive innings
and with a 1.50 ERA in the
NCAA Tournament. The
Gators shut out rival
Florida State twice in as
many nights to win the
A.J. Puk
super regional and land a
spot in Omaha for the fifth time in the last
seven years. They will begin CWS play Sunday
against Coastal Carolina (49-16), which leads
the nation in home runs (94).
The best pitching staff in the country
against the team with the most home runs,
Florida ace Logan Shore said. It will be a good
game No. 1.
The Gators, who rank sixth nationally with a
2.93 ERA, could have the advantage considering TD Ameritrade Park has yielded just 40
home runs during the CWS during in the five
years that its been open.
Its a pretty big park and typically the ball

by Oakland (47th overall) and is coming off his
best outing of the season. He gave up two hits
and struck out nine in eight scoreless innings
against FSU.

ace next season and could develop into a top-10


pick. He has a team-high 124 strikeouts and
just 21 walks this season. He will start
Floridas second game in Omaha.
A. J. Puk (2 -3 , 3 . 0 5 ): A 6-foot-7 lefty
who throws in the mid-to-upper 90s, Puk was
the sixth overall pick in the draft. Also chosen
by the Athletics, Puk was less than impressive
in his two starts in the NCAA Tournament.
Puks last victory came April 14, and hes lasted less than five innings in four of his last six
outings.
Dane Dunni ng (6 -3 , 2 . 4 0 ): The righthanded reliever was the 29th pick in the draft.
Hes carried the bulk of the load in the bullpen,
making 31 appearances and pitching 75
innings, and has the stuff to be a starter at the
next level.
Shaun Anders o n (3 -0 , 1 . 0 0 ): He developed into one of best closers in college this
season. His 13 saves tied the schools singleseason record held by Danny Wheeler (1994)
and Josh Fogg (1998). The junior was the 88th
overall pick in the draft, going to Boston in
hopes of becoming a starter.

NorCal Blitz off to hot start with title at Gumball tourney


By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Losing isnt part of the equation for the


NorCal Blitz.
The travel softball team based out of
Carlmont High School ran the table at its
first tournament of the season over the
weekend, posting a 6-0 record to win the 18and-under championship at the Gumball
Fastpitch Tournament in Hayward.
We pretty much expect to win every tournament we enter, Blitz coach Brian Ching
said. Its the way it was when we won the
Triple Crown last year in Reno out of 100something teams. These girls are good.
After outscoring three teams 28-6 through
pool play Saturday, the Blitz nearly let one
get away in Sundays elimination-round
opener. With the Blitz leading the Scotts
Valley Trouble 5-4 in the final inning, the
Trouble loaded the bases with no outs.
Then Ching turned to ace right-hander
Kaitlyn Grech.
Grech who recently wrapped up her junior season at Woodside hadnt pitched in
the tournament to that point. But she mowed
down Scotts Valley to earn the most valiant
save of the tournament, inducing a groundball to third baseman Michelle Larose, who
threw home to get the out at the plate; then
Grech notched back-to-back strikeouts to
end the game.
What was impressive is there were a cou-

ple times they had loaded


the bases and no outs and
we shut them out, Ching
said.
The Blitz then rode the
hot hand all the way to
the tourney title, as
Grech fired consecutive
complete games, going
Kaitlyn Grech the distance in a 14-5 win
over the Bombers and an
8-1 win over the Burlingame Titans. Grech
also proved heroic at the plate, totaling four
hits and eight RBIs over the final day of the
tournament.
Through the last year of her pitching
career, Grech has been reinventing her
approach in the circle. Notorious for featuring an unorthodox sidearm pitching
motion, Grech has worked to develop a more
customary fluid motion. The result is she
isnt throwing the ball by hitters like she
used to.
As a sophomore at Woodside in 2015,
Grech struck out 64 through 82 2/3 innings.
This season, she totaled 63 punch-outs in
111 2/3 innings. Through her two starts
Sunday, she struck out just two batters.
Shes retooling her delivery which is
changing her breaking ball and speed,
Ching said. But whats impressive is she
battles through it.
Last fall, Grech sought the help of College
of San Mateo head coach Nicole Borg, who

worked with Grech in the fall to help deconstruct the unorthodox pitching mechanics in
an effort to encourage the tall right-hander
to take a standard long-arm approach.
Its actually something we tried to correct
in the three- to four-month span we were
together and actually made some pretty good
headway in getting that arm straightened
out, Borg said.
Grech is not the only Blitz player with
CSM ties, as three players currently on roster for the travel squad plan to play for the
Lady Bulldogs next season Lauren Quirke
(Hillsdale), Allie Stines (Capuchino) and
Gabriella Zucchiatti (Mills).
Each of the CSM-bound trio had offers to
play at four-year colleges, according to
Ching. But he encouraged them to continue
playing as a group, and CSM a program
that has appeared in four consecutive state
championship tournaments proved the
beneficiary.
They got colleges where they didnt want
to go, so I said do it this way and they
agreed, Ching said. So theyre going this
route.
The core of Blitz players figures to be the
gateway to an intriguing rivalry with the Cal
Nuggets, another Northern California-based
travel team run by former Carlmont assistant
coach Haley Woods. And the rivalry wont be
confined just the travel-ball ranks.
Until recently, the Nuggets were based out
of Carlmont. But with Woods having recent-

ly taken the head-coaching job at Foothill


College to start a new team there, the former
Burlingame High School star has relocated
her travel team to Foothill.
Borg said she welcomes the competition
of the forthcoming rivalry between Foothill
and CSM, especially in the sense it should
improve the quality of CSMs regular-season
conference schedule. But with CSM previously enjoying a veritable monopoly on
recruiting from the San Mateo County area,
Foothill now figures to be another player on
the local scene, considering Woods local
ties.
Obviously theyre going to be recruiting
a lot of other San Mateo players and Haley
Woods has a great name out there and has a
great background, Borg said. So, I look at
it from the perspective if players dont
want to come to our program, thats their
choice. We have a proven record of success
and we keep telling players what theyre
going to get if they come to our program to
play.
Quirke and Stines each enjoyed strong
showings in Sundays elimination round.
Stines totaled five hits over the three games,
with Stines and Quirke pacing the team with
six RBIs apiece. Larose led the Blitz with
six hits through the three games, and added a
steal of home plate in the 5-4 win over
Scotts Valley; she waited for the catcher to
throw the ball back to the pitcher and plated
on a quick dash for home.

Fired coach Art Briles
lambastes Baylor
AUSTIN, Texas Fired Baylor
coach Art Briles is ripping his former employer, accusing the school
of wrongful termination and indicating he has no interest in settling a federal lawsuit filed against
him and the university by a woman
who was raped by a football player.
In a motion filed Thursday as
part of the lawsuit. Briles said he
wants a judge to assign him new
counsel and his personal attorney
Ernest Cannon, said the school
was using the coach as a scapegoat
for its failings in handling allegations of sexual assault.
The conclusion is inescapable
that the motive of Baylor and the
Board of Regents was to use its
head football coach and the Baylor
athletic department as a camouflage to disguise and distract from
its own institutional failure to
comply with federal civil rights
protections, Cannon wrote to
Baylors attorneys in the latest
development in a scandal that has
gripped the worlds largest Baptist
university for months.
He also demanded that Baylor
immediately turn over to me the

including information given to

investigated Baylors mishandling of sexual assault cases in

Colombia that she fell in love
with the sport.
When [I] walked out to a stadium with 15,000 people it was

Short compares the womens futsal program to the early years of
the U.S. Womens National Soccer

style to grow the womens game
going so far as selling tickets

Storms soften Oakmont and stop U.S. Open


By Doug Ferguson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

OAKMONT, Pa. Storms that


took plenty of bite out of
Oakmont wound up shutting down
the U.S. Open on Thursday.
The first round was suspended
for the third and final time just as
28-year-old qualifier Andrew
Landry was finishing up a dream
round in his debut at golfs toughest test.
Coming off two straight
bogeys, Landry hit his approach
into about 10 feet on the ninth
hole for a birdie attempt when the
horn sounded as a violent storm
approached. He was at 3-under par.
That wasnt the only memorable
U. S.
Open
debut.
Scottie
Scheffler, who just finished his
sophomore year at Texas, can at
least say he was the leader for the
day. Scheffler, one of only nine
players to finish, opened with a
69.
Seven of the 78 player who teed
off in the morning were under par,
so Oakmont still presented its
typical share of problems, mostly
on the greens.
Defending champion Jordan
Spieth was irritated by a few mistakes, though he was 1 over
through 12 holes. Spieth was
mainly disgusted on the 17th hole

when his wedge landed behind the


pin, spun back on the rain-softened green and kept trickling until
it went down the slope and into a
bunker.
You got to be KIDDING me!
How is that in the bunker? Spieth
said from the fairway before slinging his club toward his bag. Even
more irritating to Spieth and others was that after the initial delay
of 1 hour, 19 minutes, players
were sent back to the course without having a chance to warm up.
It could have been worse.

Willett, Rory McIlroy and Rickie
Fowler played in the same group
and were a combined 14-over par
through 13 holes. Fowler had
missed the cut in three of his last
five events.
Oakmont received more than an
inch of rain overnight, and it was
evident immediately how much it
affected the course reputed to be
the toughest in America. Denny
McCarthy, the first to hit a shot in
the 116th U.S. Open, struck what
he thought was a good approach
to No. 1. The fairway slopes
sharply downhill to a green that
runs away from players, and the
typical play is to land it some 25
yards short and let it run onto the
green and, hopefully, have it stay
there.

a third suspension because of the weather.
His shot stopped short of the
green.
But while the greens were soft,
they still were quick as ever.
Starting on No. 10, Bryon

was some 35 feet beyond the hole.
Two holes later, Spieth hit a
wedge that checked up about 10
feet short of the hole and then
trickled a few inches toward the
cup. And it didnt stop. Turn by

Carr, Cooper banking on building


chemistry in second year together
By Josh Dubow
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ALAMEDA Derek Carr and Amari


Cooper had plenty of success their first year
together with the Oakland Raiders even as
they were still learning each others tendencies.
With an entire offseason to work on finding the exact spot to throw a pass, knowing
the perfect spot to break off a pattern, and
making slight adjustments at the line of
scrimmage to optimize plays, Oaklands
talented young duo expects to be even more
productive this season.
Im able to throw the ball a lot earlier,
Carr said Wednesday. Im able to trust
where hes going to be at. Im used to seeing his routes run a certain way. Those are
things that take time. Its always going to
take time getting that chemistry down.
But, its nice to see all of the hard work in
practice that weve had together paying off
out here in practice and hopefully come
August, September and through the season.
While it is still only minicamp in June,
Carr and Cooper are showing signs of how
that improved chemistry can lead to more
big plays when the season starts for real in
September.
Carr and Cooper are constantly communicating on the practice field as they try to
learn the best way to run passes and place
passes before the grind of the season starts
and much of the focus will be on game plans
and specific opponents.
Its comfort, Cooper said. I know with
every route that I run, I know where Derek
wants to go with the ball. I know how he
wants to throw it.
The two didnt have much time together
last offseason when Carr was nursing a finger injury on his throwing hand. Carr said
the work this offseason has been invaluable.
It was nice to have hundreds more reps
of certain plays, Carr said. That kind of
stuff, theres no price on that. You have to
get out there and do it. To see where were
at and to be able to come out here and do it,
it helps us go another step closer to what
we want.
Cooper and Carr had an impressive first
season together in Oakland when they

gave the Raiders their


most lethal quarterbackreceiver combination
since Rich Gannon was
throwing to Hall of
Famers Tim Brown and
Jerry Rice more than a
decade ago.
Since those three stars
all
retired, the Raiders
Derek Carr
have had no success as
they struggled to find a
franchise quarterback
and
game-breaking
receiver. In the 25-yearold Carr and 21-year-old
Cooper, Oakland has
pieces to build around
for years to come.
Carr won the job as a
Amari Cooper rookie in 2014 and had
an up-and-down debut
season that saw him throw for 21 touchdowns and 3,270 yards but win only three
games and struggle to generate big plays
consistently with an offense that sorely
lacked a game-breaking receiver.
Then along came Cooper, who was taken
fourth overall in the 2015 draft and immediately made an impact with Carr. Cooper had
72 catches for 1,070 yards and six touchdowns as a rookie, showing the ability to
get deep as well as turn short passes into
big gains.
With Cooper and veteran Michael
Crabtree on the outside, Carr had the
options in the passing game that he lacked
as a rookie and it led to a significant jump
in production.
Carr threw for 32 touchdowns and 3,987
yards last season, while helping the
Raiders post a 7-9 record that was their
best since 2011. With another year together in the same offense, Carr and Cooper are
looking to take another jump that will
help Oakland make the playoffs for the
first time since 2002.
Its awesome to see, coach Jack Del Rio
said. Its a big part of what we want to be
about is developing our players. Now its
their second year together. I think you see a
comfort and understanding of where each
other is going to be. What they can count
on from each other. We want to continue to
develop that, push hard for that.

rolled in it.
Its nice to know if I miss it,
Im chipping, Spieth said walking off the green.
There was still enough excitement, with Lee Westwood holing
out with a wedge on the 14th hole,
Danny Lee holing out from the
fairway on No. 6 and McCarthy
getting it on the act with a holeout from the 11th fairway.
Lee was at 2 under through 13
holes, along with Bubba Watson,
who made only two pars in his
opening holes. Watson has never
played the U.S. Open very well,

except at Oakmont. He tied for


fifth in 2007.
Westwood, Kevin Streelman and
Harris English were at 1 under on
various parts of the course.
DeChambeau, who won the U.S.
Amateur last year and had to qualify for the Open because he turned
pro, was among the early leaders
until two holes set him back.
His shot out of deep rough in
the 18th fairway squirted low and
left and into a bunker, and his
third shot banged off the grandstand, leading to double bogey.
On his next shot at No. 1, he
pushed right and into the bushes.
Then, he hit a provisional shot
into deep rough on the left.
DeChambeau was spared by finding his ball. It was unplayable, so
he was allowed to go back to the
tee. He hit the fairway and limited
the damage to a double bogey.
Players were sent back onto the
course to play no more than two
holes before another band of
storms arrived, and play was halted the second time for 2 hours, 26
minutes.
The longest day of all belonged
to the likes of Jason Day, Phil
Mickelson and the other half of
the field that didnt even play. And
they faced an even longer day on
Friday that for some could mean
36 holes at Oakmont.

Craig Sager interviews LeBron James after


Game 6 of the NBA Finals.

LeBron has heartfelt


exchange with Sager
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CLEVELAND After taking down one of


the best teams in NBA history, LeBron
James had a heartfelt moment with one of
the games most popular sideline reporters.
James was interviewed by Craig Sager
after Game 6. It was Sagers first NBA Finals
in 34 years on the job. His employer, TNT,
worked out a deal with ABC, the network that
broadcast the game, to get Sager on the air.
Sager was diagnosed with leukemia in
2014 and has been in a fight for his life over
the last two years. After asking James several questions about the game and his 41-point
performance, Sager congratulated him on
the victory.
First of all, let me ask you a question,
James said with a wide grin. How in the hell
do you go 30-plus years without getting a
finals game? That dont make no sense.
Decked out in one of his trademark colorful suits, Sager beamed as James continued
his salute.
Im happy to see you, man, James said.
Much love and respect. Im happy I was
able to witness it in front of these fans. We
really appreciate you.

A chippy game was costly for the U.S.
American midfielder Jermaine Jones was
shown a red card during a 52nd-minute confrontation that also saw Ecuador winger
Antonio Valencia sent off after a second yellow card for a harsh tackle on Alejando
Bedoya along the sideline .
U.S. players immediately rushed in to the
scrum after Valencias tackle, and Jones
raised an arm at Arroyo. Colombian referee
Wilmar Roldan immediately showed a red
card to Jones.
Jones will be suspended for the semifinal

often winced when he moved and needed


treatment multiple times during the game.
They were battered, they were beaten, and
they were livid afterward.
Kerr will surely get fined for criticizing
officials; his comments on Curry and how
Phillips fell for what the Warriors thought
was a LeBron James flop will cost the coach
of the year $25,000 money well spent if
the Warriors win Game 7.
Curry will also likely face a fine for
throwing the mouthpiece that struck a fan
sitting courtside if league precedent in
such matters holds. Curry immediately
apologized to the fan and it appeared that he
and Cavaliers coach Tyronn Lue were sharing a laugh about the incident in the immediate moments that followed.
Ive thrown my mouthpiece before,
Curry said. I usually aim at the scorers
table. I was off-aim. . . . But the last two
fouls I had, I didnt think I fouled either
Kyrie (Irving) or LeBron. Thats my perception of the plays and I had a reaction
to it.
Golden State never led, faced their largest
end-of-first-quarter deficit of the entire season and now will have an unimaginable
amount of pressure when Sunday nights
winner-take-all game rolls gets played at
Oracle Arena.
No, were fine, Green said. Its a new
game. Game 7 at home. If you ask any player and coach in the league, if they have
Game 7 at home for the NBA championship
theyll take it.
Curry led the Warriors with 30 points, and
Klay Thompson finished with 25 yet neither
ever seemed to get totally on track. The other
three Golden State starters Green (8),
Iguodala (5) and Barnes (0 for 8 from the

field, 0 points) combined for 13 points.


Golden State trailed 31-9 late in the first
quarter before getting within eight points
later in the half, then trailed by 24 in the
third quarter and eventually cut that deficit
down to 86-79 early in the fourth, albeit in
vain.
Just didnt go our way, Curry said.
James was unstoppable, dominating play
at both ends and finishing with 41 points
for the second consecutive game. Tristan
Thompson made all six of his shots and finished with 15 points and 16 rebounds for
Cleveland which outrebounded the
Warriors 45-35.

Ayesha Curry got to her seat just before


tipoff, tweeting out that the bus carrying
her and other Warriors family members
wasnt getting into the arena very quickly.
So the start of the night set her off, and
the way it ended was worse.
Ive lost all respect sorry this is
absolutely rigged for money... Or ratings in
not sure which, Ayesha Curry tweeted just
before the final buzzer, a post she deleted
after a few minutes and around 80, 000
retweets. I wont be silent . Just saw it live
sry.
Shell see another game live on Sunday
night. Itll decide the season.

along with U.S. midfielder Alejandro Bedoya


and Bobby Wood, who both got their second
yellow cards of the tournament.
Ecuador coach Gustavo Quinteros also
appeared to be sent off late in the match.
The only previous knockout win for the
U.S. over a non-CONCACAF team was
against Spain in the 2009 Confederations
Cup semifinal. The only other U.S. appearance in the Copa semifinals was in 1995,
when it advanced to the final four by beating
Mexico, then was eliminated by Brazil.
Dempsey appeared energized playing in
the home stadium of his Seattle Sounders,
and his header provided the U.S. a chance to
relax after a tense opening. Wood was
tremendous all night getting behind the
defense and holding the ball up to provide
chances on the attack and did so for both

American goals.
On the first goal, Dempsey played the ball
ahead to Wood, who dribbled and then passed
to Jones. He crossed into the penalty area,
where Dempsey had completed his run from
midfield and beat Juan Paredes to the ball,
directing it to the corner of the net past goalkeeper Alexander Dominguez from 8 yards.
The second goal was also a result of Wood
playing the ball back. Brooks played a long
ball to Wood, and his pass to Matt Besler
was crossed to Gyasi Zardes in the area. His
headed pass found Dempsey, who was able to
slide a pass across the mouth of the goal for
Zardes to poke in.
After that, the Americans tired and Ecuador
turned up the pressure. Arroyos goal came
off Walter Ayovis free kick from a flank.
Enner Valencia had two great chances in the

76th and 77th minutes, and Brooks nearly


had an own goal in the first minute of stoppage time, only to see the ball deflected wide
by goalkeeper Guzan.

in Game 6 of the NBA Finals. The Cavs outrebounded the Warriors 45-35.

The U.S. made two changes to the lineup it


used for the first three games of the tournament due to the red card picked up by right
back DeAndre Yedlin in the final group game
against Paraguay that caused the speedy
youngster to miss a chance to play back in
his hometown. U.S. coach Jurgen
Klinsmann inserted Besler into the lineup at
left back and flopped Fabian Johnson to fill
Yedlins spot on the right side.

Northern Ireland 2,
Ukraine 0
LYON, France Northern Ireland
secured its first victory in a major
competition in 34 years when it beat
Ukraine 2-0 at the European
Championship on Thursday.
Building on a strong finish to the
first half, center back Gareth
McAuley headed in a free kick from
Oliver Norwood in the 49th minute.
Substitute Niall McGinn added a second deep in stoppage time when
Ukraine was chasing an equalizer.
The victory, Northern Irelands
first since beating host Spain in the
1982 World Cup, means the team has
a real chance of qualifying for the
knockout stages of Euro 2016.
Following its opening 1-0 defeat
to Poland it now has three points,
alongside Germany and Poland, who
also meet Thursday. Northern
Irelands next Group C game is
against world champion Germany on
Tuesday at the Parc des Princes in
Paris.
Northern Ireland grew in confidence through the first half and was
rewarded with its first goal in an
international competition since the
1986 World Cup when McAuley
headed in a free kick from Oliver
Norwood at the far post.

England 2, Wales 1
LENS, France Halftime substitute Daniel Sturridge scored an injurytime winner to give England a 2-1
come-from-behind victory over
Wales
at
the
European
Championship.
England had fallen behind after

Euro 2016 roundup


Gareth Bale scored from a long-distance free kick in the 42nd minute.
But England coach Roy Hodgson
brought on Jamie Vardy and Sturridge
at halftime in an aggressive move to
get more finishing power up front.
Vardy scored the equalizer, pouncing on a misdirected defensive clearance in the 56th minute with just his
third touch. Sturridge muscled his
way into the box to score the winning goal in the first minute of stoppage time.
From looking in a weak position
in Group B, the English now find
themselves in first place and cannot
finish lower than third, likely earning a spot in the last 16.
Wales has three points.

Germany 0, Poland 0
SAINT-DENIS, France Germany
and Poland played out the first goalless draw of the European
Championship on Thursday in a dour
match at the Stade de France.
A glaring miss was fittingly the
key moment of a Group C match that
led to Ukraine becoming the first
team to be eliminated from Euro
2016.
Arkadiusz Milik, who scored
Polands winner against Northern
Ireland on Sunday, miscued a header
as he fell to his knees in Germanys
goalmouth and the ball bounced just
wide of Manuel Neuers right-hand
post.
Neither team could sustain any
attacking pressure, and a point suits
both after their opening wins.

Palo Alto Chamber Orchestra


celebrates anniversary in style
By David Bratman
DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT

The Palo Alto Chamber Orchestra is not


a single group, but five separate student
string orchestras at different levels of
experience. All five of them, with as many
conductors, got together last Saturday at
Palo Altos First United Methodist Church
to honor the 50th anniversary of the organizations founding by the late William
Whitson. It was a sparkling celebratory
occasion.
PACOs current longtime music director,
and regular conductor of the senior orchestra, Benjamin Simon, hosted the occasion.
Guest speakers, going all the way back to
members of the first ensemble in 1966,
appeared between the program items.
Board president Bill Harris and current senior orchestra concertmaster Shawna Chen
both made the point that PACO is a cooperative environment, not a competitive
one. Thats something that the stressful
experience of growing up in Palo Alto
sorely needs.
From listening to the five ensembles,
its clear that even the most junior of them
have sufficient skill at ensemble playing
and group intonation to make them pleasant to hear, while the older groups are better than that, adding some skill at effects
and interpretive character to their playing.
All the ensembles are at their best in opening sections of works, having a little more
struggle later on.
The PACO repertoire is widespread. The
senior orchestra has taken recently to
commissioning new works, to give its
players practice in contemporary music.
One such work began the concert, a 50th
Anniversary Overture by Camden Boyle, a
PACO alumnus now studying at Juilliard. It
had the vigor and style of 20th-century
British string orchestra music, and was
well-gauged for the students abilities.
The program was particularly strong on
music that quotes other music in pastiche.
The senior orchestra will be taking on tour
Peter Heidrichs Happy Birthday
Variations, which cleverly inserts that
tune into accompaniments stolen from
famous composers, like Dvoraks
American Quartet. The Preparatory
Orchestra, one of the junior ensembles,
played a similar mashup with bits of various other famous tunes, like Auld Lang
Syne, inserted into the first movement of

Mozarts Eine Kleine


Nachtmusik.
Lastly, the senior
orchestra played a movement
from
Astor
Piazzollas
Four
Seasons of Buenos
Aires to which the
arranger had inserted
Benjamin
quotes from Antonio
Vivaldis original Four
Simon
Seasons. The violin
soloist was Robin Sharp, another PACO
alumna, now concertmaster of Simons
professional ensemble, the San Francisco
Chamber Orchestra.
At the other end of soloist experience, a
movement from Vivaldis Spring season
from the senior orchestra had for solo violin Sophie Au, 10, a member of
SuperStrings, the most junior ensemble.
This was, I suspect, her first solo performance, and she benefited from some nudging
from conductor Michel Taddei as to when
to bow and when to shake hands with the
concertmaster. The vigor and energy she
brought to her playing were admirable.
The concert also featured the Debut
Orchestra, the number three group, conducted by Eugene Sor in the Jig from
Holsts St. Paul Suite, SuperStrings led by
Kris Yenney in a collection of
Scandinavian folk tunes, and the Sinfonia
Orchestra, the number two group, under
Jory Funkuchen, in an arrangement of the
Britney Spears song Toxic with some
notable uses of slide playing.
For a big finale, all the orchestras at
once, plus as many alumni as wanted to
join in, crowded up for a conductorless but
admirably coherent version of Bachs
Brandenburg Concerto No. 3. Bach left a
blank spot in the manuscript for players to
insert their own slow movement. Here that
part was filled by the Preparatory
Orchestra with a touching rendition of Jay
Ungars Ashokan Farewell, the music
from Ken Burns Civil War documentary.
For the Bach itself, the work of some 150
string players at once was the biggest,
Bachiest sound ever. Even Leopold
Stokowski would have been impressed,

Lots of laughs in Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike


By Judy Richter
DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT

Laughter fills the theater as Palo Alto


Players stages Vanya and Sonia and Masha
and Spike by Christopher Durang.
Winner of the 2013 Tony Award for Best
Play, this dark comedy blends references to
plays by Anton Chekhov through characters names and other details.
Its set in the present in a farmhouse in
Bucks County, Pennsylvania, occupied by
the first two title characters. Both in their
50s, Vanya (Walter M. Mayes), who is gay,
and Sonia (Patricia Tyler), who was adopted,
are siblings who have lived there virtually
all of their lives. They cared for their parents through the trials of old age.
Neither has been married or held a job.
They seem content to continue with their
humdrum lives.
Their routine is interrupted by an infrequent visit by their glamorous movie-star
sister Masha (Judith Miller). Currently
unmarried after the failure of her fifth marriage, shes accompanied by her handsome
but clueless boy-toy, Spike (Jimmy
Mason), who has a penchant for strutting
around in his underwear and shouting.
Masha, who has been paying all of the
household expenses, has decided to sell the

Although the play can easily lapse into


sitcom, director Linda Piccone keeps a tight
rein on the antics, allowing the humor to
come through without going overboard.
All six actors are well cast. Erhart as Nina
embodies the characters sincerity and
naivete, a pleasing blend. Even though
Spike is hard to take, Mason fills the role
ably.
Mayes excels in Vanyas tirade against
modern technology versus the simpler days
of things like rotary phones, typewriters
and mailed letters.
Tylers Sonia blossoms because of the
party. Her telephone conversation the
morning after holds the audience rapt.
Like her siblings, Millers Masha does
some growing, overcoming some of her
narcissism and becoming more self-aware.
Finally, Divito is a hoot as Cassandra with
her extravagant behavior and often accurate
predictions.

A not-so-sinful take on deviled eggs


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Deviled eggs are a classic accompaniment to summer picnics and barbecue.


But they generally are loaded with fat
and calories from the egg yolks and
mayonnaise.
We set out to remake the filling to be
flavorful, yet pack significantly less
guilt. Egg yolks do have great nutritional value; the majority of an eggs
vitamins and minerals are actually
found in the yolk. But along with those
nutrients are plenty of fat and cholesterol.
To lower the fat and cholesterol but
keep the luscious flavor, we opted to use
just some of the yolks. For the creaminess associated with mayonnaise, we
use a combination of low-fat mayonnaise and pureed low-fat cottage cheese.
The cottage cheese may sound a little

off-putting, but its a great trick for


when you need thick, creamy and lowfat.

NOT-SO-SINFUL DEVILED EGGS


Start to finish: 45 minutes
Makes 24 halves
12 large eggs
Ice
1/2 cup low-fat cottage cheese
3 tablespoons low-fat mayonnaise
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 teaspoons cider vinegar
1 tablespoon prepared horseradish
1 tablespoon sweet pickle relish
Salt and ground black pepper, to taste
Fresh chives, to garnish
Smoked paprika, to garnish
Place the eggs in a large saucepan and
fill with cool water. Cover the pan and
bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
Remove the pan from the heat and let

sit for 15 minutes. Drain the hot water,


leaving the eggs in the pan. Fill the
pan with cold water and a cup of ice.
Allow the eggs to cool completely.
Meanwhile, in a food processor combine the cottage cheese, mayonnaise,
mustard, vinegar and horseradish. Puree
until smooth. Set aside.
Peel the eggs but keep them intact.
Slice the eggs in half lengthwise.
Retain the egg whites. Discard half of
the yolks.
In a medium bowl, mash the remaining yolks. Add the pureed dressing mixture and the relish. Stir to combine,
then season with salt and black pepper.
Using a pastry bag or a zip-close bag
with the corner cut off, or using a
spoon, refill the wells in the egg
whites. Garnish the tops with a little
sprinkle of smoked paprika and some
chopped chives.

Cottage cheese can be combined with other ingredients, such


as fresh herbs, to be used in place of mayonnaise.

DORY
Continued from page 18
clownfish with a weak fin, to Dory, the blue
tang with short term memory loss or as
the baby Dory seen early in the film says,
remembery loss.
The adventures of both Dory and Nemo
are born out of straying too far from anxious parents. The gulf of separation stretches wider and longer in Finding Dory, but
its covered the same way: by pluckily
overcoming genetic handicaps and trusting
in the Pacific-sized love of family. In the
Pixar brood, the sweetly sentimental

Continued from page 18
years ago, when she first voiced the happy
little fish with short-term memory issues.
DeGeneres had publicly come out as gay a
few years earlier, and had the title character
on her namesake sitcom do the same.
It was a cultural flash point; then the show
was cancelled. About the same time,
DeGeneres three-year relationship with
Anne Heche suffered a painful ending.
For a while, I didnt imagine that I would
have anything again, DeGeneres said in a
recent interview, her blue eyes bright and
direct. So then I just kept swimming. She
returned to the standup circuit and started
over. Soon, DeGeneres was launching her
daytime talk show .
Just keep swimming is Dorys motto.
The little fish may not always know where
she is or what shes doing there, but she can

voiced by Ellen DeGeneres) to protagonist.


But its not a simple switch in perspective:
In seeing through her forgetful fisheyes,
you realize how terrifyingly disorienting it
is to be Dory. Finding Dory is
Memento under the sea, with a much more
chipper lead forever at pains to remember
why and where shes going.
The film, directed by Andrew Stanton,
picks up six months after Finding Nemo.
Dory is living with Nemo (Hayden
Rolence, replacing Alexander Gould) and
Marlin (Albert Brooks), but shes nagged
by flickers of memory of her family.
A flashback of Dorys childhood follows.
Though it doesnt reach the gentle poetry
of the famous montage in Up, it movingly reveals Dorys origins: a challenged fish
whose parents (Eugene Levy and Diane
Keaton) teach her mantras for coping (Just
keep swimming) but are helpless when a
current sucks her away. Dory grows up a
lost and confused orphan.
Energized by clues of remembrance,
Dory, Nemo and a reluctant Marlin travel

from Australia to California, where her


search leads to the Marine Life Institute.
So much of the dazzle of Finding Nemo
was the colorful richness of its aquatic life:
sharks in recovery, pelicans interested in
dentistry, Willem Dafoes battle-scarred
striped fish. So why, with oceans to
explore, does Finding Dory cling so
closely to the shore?
The trip across the Pacific goes in a flash.
The action takes place almost entirely
jumping between tanks at the institute
(subbed in by Pixar for an originally
planned SeaWorld-like location) and in a
number of less exotic (and less creative)
scampers on land.
The sidekick here is a sullen sevenlegged octopus named Hank (Ed ONeill),
who helps Dory navigate the complex to
facilitate his own escape. But the movies
high point unquestionably belongs to the
pair of British sea lions (Idris Elba and
Dominic West, Wire veterans reunited)
who bark at any creature that dares
approach their sunning rock.

Finding Dory, bright and clever like


most all Pixar releases, has the animation
studios familiar blend of wit, heart and
visual detail. But its missing its own
magic. Like Dorys questions, it feels a bit
like a repeat. Its certainly no Cars 2
(Pixars low point) but neither does it
approach the glory of Toy Story 2.
Pleasant as it is, if Finding Dory feels a
little disappointing, its partly because the
appetizer upstages the main course.
Piper, Alan Barillaros six-minute short
that precedes the film, is about a baby sandpiper learning to feed, scampering in an out
of the surf. The photorealistic imagery may
be the best yet for Pixar. In the 13 years
from Finding Nemo to last years clunky
but gorgeously animated The Good
Dinosaur, Pixar all the while making us
tear up has effectively mastered water.
Finding Dory, a Walt Disney Pictures
release, is rated PG by the Motion Picture
Association of America for mild thematic
elements. Running time: 97 minutes.
Three stars out of four.

keep moving forward.


It was weird that (writer-director Andrew
Stanton) was writing that at the same time
that I was really wondering what was going
to happen to me, DeGeneres said.
Now her Emmy-winning show is in its
13th season. Shes a CoverGirl spokeswoman; she hosted the Oscars, Emmys and
Grammys twice each; and introduced her
own lifestyle brand, ED, last year. Everyone
knows what happened to DeGeneres: she
became an A-list star.
She had been lobbying on her talk show
for a sequel to Nemo for years, but she was
still shocked when the call came in especially when Stanton said Dory was the main
character.
Thats a day Ill never forget, DeGeneres
said.
Finding Dory introduces the blue tang
fish as a baby, long before she meets her
clownfish pals Marlin and Nemo. Little
Dorys doting parents are helping their
daughter develop skills for dealing with her
memory troubles when an undertow whisks

her out to sea. Dory quickly forgets why


shes in the open ocean, and just keeps
swimming until she makes new friends.
Along the way, she discovers that what
she thought were liabilities are actually
strengths. Her spontaneous way of
approaching challenges inspires her fish
friends to ask themselves, What would
Dory do?
The role represents DeGeneres first major
acting gig since Nemo. She spent three
years recording bits of Dorys vocals alone
in a sound booth the same one where
Nemo taped a decade earlier.
She walked in and we picked up exactly
where we had left off, Stanton said.
Like when she agreed to host the Oscars a
second time, DeGeneres was ready for a
challenge when Stanton called. Could she
move audiences with nothing more than her
voice?
This is, to me, harder than acting with
your body and our facial expressions, she
said. Its challenging to act with only your
voice.

In a scene where Dory cries, DeGeneres


says she shed real tears.
I love being able to express myself in
different ways and be emotional and not
just be funny all the time, she said.
The 58-year-old entertainer is also
expressing herself through her latest passion, her ED brand of clothing, accessories and home decor. On this day, she is
sporting yet-to-be-released sneakers from
the collection that say love on the
sides. Her black-and-white floral blouse is
from ED, too. Shes expanding the line to
include jeans, menswear, furniture and pet
items.
All of these things the talk show, the
brand, Finding Dory seemed impossible when the Ellen sitcom was cancelled
in 1998.
To launch my talk show at the same
time Nemo was coming out, and then to
end up where the sequel is now about Dory
Ive got so many good things going
on, said DeGeneres, who married actress
Portia Di Rossi in 2008.

FAIR
Continued from page 1
for Maggie Holmes as the 18-year-old
recently graduated from Sequoia High
School. She was awarded grand champion for Chevy, one of the two roughly 150-pound Hampshire Suffolk
lambs she raised.
While she knows few Redwood City
residents, let alone any of her high
school classmates, whove had much
experience raising livestock, Holmes
said she couldnt imagine a more sincere lesson on the food chain.
Its a great deal of responsibility to
raise something that somebody else is
going to eat. Thats a big deal and a
thing that a lot of people dont have
an opportunity to do. I think its definitely made me more aware, Holmes
said, noting she hopes her grand
champ lamb will go for a decent price.
Theres a difference between the meat
you buy at Safeway and this kind of
meat. Theyve definitely had the best
life they could have.
Holmes, whose older sister as well
as her mother had also participated in
4-H as youths, agreed raising livestock for 4-H was a family affair she
would miss.
My mom did it when she was growing up, so that was a big influence.
And we have family friends that are
really into it and I came to the fair and
just fell in love with it and wanted to
do it too, Holmes said, recalling how
she first began by raising show rabbits in fourth-grade before advancing
to lambs with a brief stint in raising
swine.
She also spent the last four years on
the junior fair board, through which
she engaged in youth outreach and
gave tours for local school groups that
visit the annual 4-H livestock arena.
This season, she also served as a team
leader for her Caada 4-H chapters
lamb project.
Its fun to teach younger kids
something that youre passionate
about, Holmes said.

TRIAL
Continued from page 1
killing eight people and destroying 38
homes in San Bruno. During the investigation that followed, prosecutors say
the San Francisco-based utility misled
federal officials about how it was identifying high-risk pipelines.
The standard the company used violated safety regulations and led to a failure
to classify the San Bruno pipeline and
other similar pipelines as high risk and
properly assess them, prosecutors said
in a 2014 indictment. The company
also faces charges that it violated pipeline safety laws by
ignoring shoddy record-keeping and failing to identify
threats to its larger natural
gas pipelines.
PG&E has pleaded not
guilty and said its employees
did not intentionally violate
pipeline safety laws or
obstruct an investigation.
The company faces a $562
million fine if convicted.
Regardless of the next
legal steps, we want our customers to know we are focused
on the future and on re-earning their trust by leading in
safety, reliability, affordability and clean energy, the
company said in a statement.
Weve made unprecedented
progress, and were committed to maintaining this
focus.
Investigators have blamed
the September 2010 blast in
part on poor PG&E recordkeeping that was based on

SAMANTHA WEIGEL/DAILY JOURNAL

Laurel Nelson, left, works with chickens after brothers Nils and Colin Nehrenheim,
right, competed during market poultry judging at the fair.
On Thursday, younger participants
sought out Holmes for assistance and
her older sister Emma, who graduated
last year, remained involved by helping with judging during the market
poultry and turkey day.
Hanno Nehrenheim, a San Carlos
father, watched as his kids participated
in showing off the chickens they
raised. Unlike the Holmeses,
Nehrenheim said his family only
recently got involved with 4-H when
his eldest son started to show an interest in animals.
We had to try and find a way that he
could get involved with animals,
Nehrenheim said, noting neither he
nor his wife had been involved with 4H before. But it teaches them responsibility, commitment, its a commitment.
Now, 11-year-old Colin, 9-year-old
Nils and 7-year-old Annika are all
involved in raising chickens at the
familys San Carlos home. Even dad
was excited to participate and recently
taught his first woodworking class for
their local 4-H chapter.
Its a neat, fun thing we can all get
into, Nehrenheim said. 4-H is about
much more than just animals.
incomplete and inaccurate pipeline
information. Company records, for
example, indicated the pipe that ran
through the city was seamless. But a
laboratory examination later showed
the pipe was constructed with seamwelds that failed during the accident, the
National Transportation Safety Board
determined.
California regulators fined the company $1.6 billion for the blast last year.
PG&Es attorneys fought to block
any reference to the San Bruno blast at
trial. Henderson did not grant that
request, although he barred prosecutors
from showing jurors the segment of the
pipeline that exploded or saying how

Holmes agreed, suggesting anyone


interested in getting involved should
check out their local chapters website
to see what programs are offered.
For her, she plans to transfer the
leadership, public speaking and teaching skills she acquired during her 9year tenure with 4-H to a career in
nursing as she begins college next
year, Holmes said.
Early on, she knew raising farm animals was a responsibility worth the
commitment. Over the last few
months, twice a day Holmes would go
to a family friends Woodside property
to feed her two sheep, exercise them
and train them. This year, her hard
work paid off and proved a poignant
end to not only her direct competitive
livestock raising experience, but that
of her family as well.
It was my first year winning grand
champion. So it was really exciting
and Im glad I won it my last year. Its
a big deal for me, Holmes said. My
mom was like, Its the last year! She
cried when I won.
The San Mateo County Fair runs
through Sunday, June 19. Visit sanmateocountyfair.com for more information.

many people died and how many homes


were destroyed.
Henderson also excluded the NTSBs
conclusions about the blast, saying
jurors might wrongly substitute the
agencys findings about regulatory violations for their own.

Salazar in the Superior Court of California, County of San Mateo. The Petition
for Probate requests that Diego Salazar

very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to
give notice to interested persons unless
they have waived notice or consented to
the proposed action.) The independent
administration authority will be granted
unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good
cause why the court should not grant the
authority.

Court of California, County of San Mateo,

and state your objections or file written
objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person
or by your attorney.
If you are a creditor or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your
claim with the court and mail a copy to
the personal representative appointed by
the court within the later of either (1) four
months from the date of first issuance of
letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the
Calilfornia Probate Code, or (2) 60 days
from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under sectioin
9052 of the Callifornia Probate
Code.Other California statutes and legal
authority may affect your rights as a
creditor. You may want to consult with an
attorney knowledgable in California law.
You may examine the file kept by the
court. If you are a person interested in
the estate, you may file with the court a
Request for Special Notice (form DE154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any petition
or account as provided in Probate Code

A NEGATIVE DECLARATION
Notice is hereby given that the City of San Bruno has completed an Initial Study and intends to adopt a Negative Declaration
for the proposed San Bruno Walk n Bike Plan in accordance
with the California Environmental Quality Act.
The Walk n Bike Plan is the Citys first citywide planning effort
devoted exclusively to non-motorized transportation. Its broad
goals are to increase the amount of walking and bicycling in
San Bruno and to improve walking and biking safety throughout the city. The Walk n Bike Plan includes a set of proposed
or recommended improvements to achieve those goals. The
improvements consist of physical projects, programmatic activities and changes to City policies and practices. The draft
Walk
n
Bike
Plan
document
is
available
at
sanbruno.ca.gov/walkbikeplan.
The Initial Study prepared by the Citys consultant under the
direction of the City was undertaken for the purpose of determining whether the project might have a significant effect on
the environment. On the basis of the Initial Study, City staff
has concluded that the project will not have a significant effect
on the environment and, therefore, has prepared a Draft Negative Declaration.
COMMENT PERIOD:
The comment period will commence on Friday June 17,
2016 and will close on Friday July 8, 2016 at 5 pm. Written
comments regarding the Walk n Bike Plan Negative Declaration must be received by the Planning Division not later than Friday July 8, 2016 at 5pm. The draft Initial
Study/Negative Declaration is available for review at the Community Development Department, San Bruno City Hall (567 El

750 Dartmouth Avenue
San Carlos, California
Project location:
The school campus is located at 750 Dartmouth Avenue in San Carlos, California. The approximately 20-acre campus is currently occupied by the Tierra Linda Middle School and Charter
Learning Center which consists of multiple single story buildings, sports fields, landscaping, and
paved parking areas. The San Carlos School District plans to modernize a portion of the existing campus to include new classrooms and administration buildings. Development plans for the
portion of the project that is subject to this PEA will include: demolition of an existing gym and
construction of a new multi-use building at Tierra Linda Middle School; construction of a hardscape play area for a new 4/5 Upper Elementary School; construction of a new multi-use building and four, two-story classroom buildings at the Charter Learning Center, and other modernization improvements. The entire campus will have capacity for 1,400 students and 96 faculty
and staff. The campus is owned by the San Carlos School District.
Description of Assessment:
Soil sampling performed at the site as part of this PEA investigation did not reveal concentrations of lead, organochlorine pesticides, polychlorinated biphenyls, or naturally occurring asbestos that exceed the unrestricted land use environmental screening criteria used by DTSC.
Based on the analytical data, the site does not pose a significant risk to human health and the
environment and appears suitable to accommodate San Carlos School Districts school development plans. The PEA report recommends DTSC consider a No Further Action determination
for the site.
The PEA and Supporting Documents are Available for Review at:
San Carlos School District, 1200 Industrial Road, Unit 9, San Carlos, California 94070 and
City of San Carlos Public Library, 610 Elm Street, San Carlos, California 94070.
Public Comment Period:
A public comment period for the PEA Report begins on 06/20/2016 through 07/20/2016. Written
comments on the PEA Report will be accepted during this public comment period. Comments
should be directed to: Mr. Robert Porter, San Carlos School District, 1200 Industrial Road, Unit
9, San Carlos, 94070, 650-508-7333, rporter@scsdk8.org.

The Project will be included as a Public Hearing item on the agenda for the San Carlos School
District board meeting on 06/23/2016. The meeting will start at 6:30 PM in the District Board

BUDGET
Continued from page 1
enue, according to Finance Director Thomas
Fil.
Our city operations have improved quite
remarkably. However, our infrastructure is
in a crisis and as a result of that, it threatens
our operations, Fil said, according to a live
video of the meeting. We are now in a very
stable situation. ... We can weather a single
storm, our problem is we cant weather two
storms.
With reserves up and this years revenue
expected to hit $72.3 million, the city has
done fairly well recovering from the economic crisis. Its five-year capital improvement program outlines spending $42.9 million, $11.1 million of which will be allocated this coming year, according to a staff
report.
But Belmonts streets, storm drains, public facilities as well as recreational sites are
still in need of a steady funding source; one
city officials may look to the community to
secure.
Fil said the state, in seeking to balance its
own budget, has taken nearly $16 million
from Belmont alone over the last 20 years.
After conducting a survey of over 2,000 res-

ART
Continued from page 1
Cultural Element to recognize public art as
a means of promoting vibrancy, according
to a staff report by Christopher Beth, director of Parks, Recreation and Community
Services.
The citys commitment will be about
$80,000 a year based on a 1 percent contribution from the citys Capital Outlay Fund.
Developers of office or retail projects of
more than 50, 000 square feet will be

idents, officials noted the community is


also committed to maintaining emergency
response services, fixing the citys streets
which are ranked some of the worst in the
Bay Area, improving the citys 50-year-old
storm drain system, and fortifying a revenue
stream that cannot be tapped by the state,
according to the city.
One possibility not yet thoroughly vetted, is to ask Belmont voters if theyd
approve a locally-controlled tax.
In the meantime, staff outlined a $135
million need broken down into deferred capital maintenance with about $57 million for
storm drains, $42 million for streets, $27
million for facilities and $8.5 million for
parks. The citys $44. 7 million sewer
improvements are funded through the rates
residents pay for service, according to the
city.
One piece of evidence of such need is the
sinkholes that have marked Belmonts
streets, Fil said.
In the coming year, the budget would allocate $1 million to replenish an emergency
repairs reserve, $1 million toward a general
facilities fund, another $1 million toward
street maintenance and shoring up a nearly
$1 million deficit in Belmonts storm
drainage fund, Fil said. In total, next years
$11 million capital improvement plan
includes spending $6.6 million on its sewer
and storm system, $2.6 million on streets,

$1 million on parks as well as open space,


and more, according to the budget.
But some residents have questioned
whether the outstanding $135 million is an
inflated estimate or if the infrastructure is
truly in need of repairs. Mayor Eric Reed
noted at the meeting he wanted to learn
more about why nearly 28 percent of the
costs of certain projects go toward management and design expenses.
I lack comfort because I dont understand
the data, he said, while noting there may
be rationale for such costs not associated
with actual construction.
With the budget not slated for approval
until June 28, staff offered to meet with
councilmembers individually to discuss further details as a packed agenda led the budget review to begin late in the evening.
Vice Mayor Charles Stone agreed the city
must plan for future infrastructure needs, but
added he would still like to see funds dedicated to parks and recreation.
The message is very clear, we are doing
well operationally, but we are in big trouble
when it comes to capital improvement projects. Most glaringly on our storm drain and
road infrastructure. But I also want to make
sure we dont lose sight of things like turfing sports fields, Stone said Thursday.
Where we can try to make a difference without breaking the bank, I think we should try
to.

Like many cities throughout the state,


Belmont can also expect to make increasing
contributions toward its employees pensions as part of California Public
Employees Retirement Systems, or
CalPERS requirements for governments to
fully fund costs by ramping up rates over
the next five years. The city has about 132
full-time employees, as well as 23 personnel its responsible for through the fire
department services it shares with San
Mateo and Foster City, according to the
budget.
The largest draw from the citys general
fund goes toward employees with 62 percent
of its expected $17.9 million in expenditures to support public safety, another 27
percent going toward general government
and 10 percent allocated to culture and recreation, according to a staff report.
The citys general fund is expected to end
with $9.7 million, which meets its target
reserves. The $21.9 million in general fund
revenue includes 71 percent sourced from
taxes, another 20 percent from service
charges and the remainder comes from
licenses and other sources, according to the
report.

art on site or pay an in-lieu fee equal in


value to at least 1 percent of the projects
construction valuation, according to Beths
report.
Our city has a lot of reasons to come to
it and public art will be one more reason
people will want to visit here, Mayor
John Seybert said Thursday. People gravitate to cities with great public art.
Many individuals in the community have
worked hard for years to bring more public
art to Redwood City and they should be
commended, he said.
Even utility boxes in the city are being
transformed into art, he said.
A General Plan goal is that Redwood
City is the place on the Peninsula to expe-

rience and enjoy visual, performing arts,


and cultural events by 2030.
The plan also states that culture and the
arts inspire civic pride, provide opportunities for expression and sharing and serve as
a catalytic component of the downtown
economy, according to Beths report.
The purpose of the Public Art Master Plan
serves as a guide when considering aspects
of public art such as:
Criteria for the selection and prioritization of potential sites for both public and
private art projects;
Procedures for the review and selection
of art; and
New strategies for the funding of public
art.

The council will consider an ordinance at


its June 27 meeting to establish the fund. If
it passes, it will go into effect 30 days
later.
A survey conducted in 2015 about extracting community benefits out of developers
indicated residents want them to fund
affordable housing and public art, according to Beths report.
The council already approved an
Affordable Housing Impact Fee ordinance
in December.
Certain projects will be exempt from
funding public art including buildings
financed with public funds, child care centers, schools and housing for the elderly
among other projects.

The council will meet to consider adopting the fiscal y ear 2017 budget June 28 at
City Hall, 1 Twin Pines Road, Belmont.
