Caltrain updates Burlingame on electrification

Residents show concerns about construction impacts
By Zachary Clark
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
As construction for Caltrain’s elec-
trification project continues, a meet-
ing in Burlingame Wednesday, July
18, to update residents on the project
status and its effects outlined some
nascent concerns over a small power
station north of Broadway and a possi-
ble increase in noise.
The $2 billion modernization pro-
gram is expected to replace 80 percent
of Caltrain’s current diesel fleet
— some locomotives date back to the
1980s — with electric trains traveling
between San Jose and San Francisco
by 2022.
While many are thrilled about the
prospect of improved service with qui-
eter, environmentally friendly loco-
motives, some Burlingame residents
living near the tracks are concerned
about the increase in train-horn noise
that more frequent service may bring.
Caltrain also announced at the meet-
ing a new location at the corner of
California Drive and Mills Avenue
north of Broadway for what’s called a
paralleling station, which Greg Parks,
a consultant who led the presentation,
described as a small power station.
Generally speaking, these stations
look like large utility boxes and range
in size. Parks said a separate meeting
devoted to that project will be held in
the coming months and a schematic
with the footprint for the structure will ZACHARY CLARK/DAILY JOURNAL
be shared then as well. Caltrain officials held a meeting in Burlingame Wednesday to
provide an update to residents on construction plans for the

The California Highway Patrol is investigating a red SUV found at the bottom of a rocky
embankment Thursday morning along Highway 1 just north of Pescadero State Beach in San
Mateo County. The vehicle appears to have rolled down the embankment, sustaining heavy
damage, and landed upside down. Officers said that they weren’t able to find any victims
involved in the crash, and no injuries have been reported.They’re not yet sure who was driving,
or what caused the vehicle to crash down the embankment.

Year in jail for torching girlfriend’s car Local brief

A Union City man was sentenced to a year
in jail and three years of probation for van-
dalizing his girlfriend’s car and setting it on
fire in July 2017, according to San Mateo
County prosecutors.
Vinay Patel, 53, allegedly went to his
girlfriend’s house in Redwood City after she
didn’t answer his calls on July 12, 2017. He
shot the car with a BB gun, poured some
kind of fuel in the car and on a carport then
lit the carport on fire.
The fire was extinguished before it could
spread to other properties and Patel denied
any involvement, but prosecutors say his
girlfriend identified him using grainy secu-
rity video.
Investigators found a BB gun in the trunk
of Patel’s car, and his fingerprints were
found on a sign that had been taped to the
victim’s car, presumably by the arsonist.
Patel was found guilty of felony arson and
felony vandalism after a six-day jury trial in
May, and has been out of custody on
$250,000 bail. He has until Sept. 22 to turn
himself in.
In addition to one year in county jail,
Patel was sentenced to three years of proba-
tion and must attend 104 hours of domestic
violence counseling. He’s also been ordered
to pay $211,200 in restitution.
Defense attorney Charles J. Smith III did
not immediately respond to a request for
comment on his client’s behalf.

Prosecutors: Water company
illegally dumped toxic waste
LOS ANGELES — The California
company that sells Crystal Geyser
bottled water has been charged with
illegally disposing of arsenic-taint-

The charges don’t allege that CG
Roxane LLC sold tainted water, but
that it illegally shipped and dis-
posed of the toxic waste filtered
from well water.
A 16-count indictment in Los
Angeles federal court alleged that
Crystal Geyser and two other com-
panies failed to properly disclose
the toxic material they shipped in
May 2015 and disposed of at a facil-
ity not permitted to treat hazardous

The tuition at the University of California for the next academic year will drop $60, a fraction of a percent of
the total base tuition. The decrease will bring tuition and fees for California residents to $12,570. Students
from outside the state pay more than triple that amount.

a small decrease in tuition
By Sophia Bollag
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SACRAMENTO — The tuition at
the University of California is
falling — ever so slightly — for
the first time in nearly two decades
and, ironically, it’s because the
system has nearly recouped losses
from past litigation over tuition
hikes.
Tuition for the next academic
year will drop $60, a fraction of a
percent of the total base tuition.
The decrease will bring tuition
and fees for California residents to
$12,570. Students from outside
the state pay more than triple that
amount.
The decrease represents the
elimination of a surcharge
imposed about a decade ago to
cover the costs of two class-action
lawsuits against the university
system over tuition increases.

“California’s future success
depends on affordable access to
our world-class universities and colleges.”
— State Senate President Pro Tem Toni Atkins
The university system lost both
cases, resulting in nearly $100
million in litigation costs. UC
will have recouped nearly all of
those costs by fall 2018, accord-
ing to the UC president’s office.
UC had planned earlier this year
to raise tuition by more than
$300, but university officials
scrapped that proposal in April.
The state budget that took effect
July 1 added millions of dollars in
funding for the state’s public uni-
versities, which allowed the UC
system to put off raising tuition,
UC president’s office spokes-
woman Dianne Klein said when

reduce tuition.

with child endangerment
After prosecutors determined
evidence did not show children of
a married couple from San Mateo

injury under their care, the felony
charges of child endangerment
filed against them were dismissed
and they were charged with mis-

Thursday, according to the San

Office.
Juan Manuel Hernandez, 33,
and Bianca Noemi Medina, 26,
are now facing county jail time
instead of state prison terms on
accusations they beat their three
children and were not properly
feeding them, according to prose-
cutors.
A neighbor concerned about
child abuse reported Hernandez
and Medina on Aug. 17, telling
investigators that they overheard
one person stating that the other
had hit a child too hard and
almost knocked him out.
When police arrived at their
apartment on the 400 block of
North San Mateo Drive, police
found three children living in
squalid conditions, including a 5-
year-old child with a 1-inch cut to
the face and a golf ball-sized
lump on the head.
Investigators determined that
the child had been beaten, and a
belt had been used. There was no
running water or edible food in
the apartment, which smelled
like urine and rotting food. The
children were removed by Child
Protective Services, prosecutors
said.
Though the couple previously
pleaded no contest to their felony
charges in November, they with-
drew their pleas in May after a
judge ruled the couple had not
received accurate advice about the
immigration consequences of
their pleas from their defense

Round 2 for Trump-Putin: Fall
invite amid summit mop-up
By Zeke Miller, Ken
Thomas and Lisa Mascaro
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Unbowed by
swirling criticism of his summit
encounter with Vladimir Putin,
President Donald Trump swiftly invit-
ed the Russian leader to the White
House this fall for a second get-togeth-
er. Cleanup from the first continued
with no letup Thursday, as Trump
belatedly decided Putin’s “incredible
offer” of shared U.S.-Russia investiga-
tions was no good after all.
A White House meeting would be a
dramatic extension of legitimacy to
the Russian leader, who has long been
isolated by the West for activities in
Ukraine, Syria and beyond and is
believed to have interfered in the 2016
presidential election that sent Trump
to the presidency. No Russian leader
has visited the White House in nearly a
decade.
Trump asked National Security
Adviser John Bolton to invite Putin,
and “those discussions are already

By Angela Charlton
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
MOSCOW — Having Donald Trump
in the White House is looking increas-
ingly like a liability for the Kremlin,
rather than an asset. But don’t expect
President Vladimir Putin to say that
out loud. Russia’s official assessment
of Trump’s high-stakes summit with
Putin is carefully upbeat. In his first
public comment on it, Putin on
Thursday declared it “successful.”
That stands in sharp contrast to the
rain of criticism the U.S. president has
faced at home. And as the days pass and
White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders speaks during a press briefing.
Monday’s summit, in which the two
leaders conferred on a range of issues
including terrorism, Israeli security,
nuclear proliferation and North
Korea.
“There are many answers, some easy
and some hard, to these problems ...
but they can ALL be solved!” Trump
tweeted.
There was no immediate reaction
from the Kremlin to the invitation.
Trump’s comments about Monday’s
summit become more and more contra-
dictory, Moscow appears to be quietly
losing hope for a thaw in Russian-U.S.
ties under Trump.
Putin doesn’t blame Trump for that.
He blames Trump’s opponents.
“Certain forces are trying to disavow
the results of the meeting in
Helsinki,” and hamper progress on
what they discussed, such as limiting
their nuclear arsenals or ending the war
in Syria, Putin said.

U.S. intel chief in the dark
about Trump-Putin talks
By Deb Riechmann
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ASPEN, Colo. — Even Donald Trump’s intelligence chief
doesn’t know what was said in the president’s one-on-one
meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin this week in
Helsinki. Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats was
also unaware that Putin was being invited to Washington.
Coats made those surprise admissions Thursday in his
first public comments since rebutting Trump’s questioning
of the U.S. intelligence assessment that Russia interfered in
the 2016 election.
Speaking at the Aspen Security Forum in Colorado, Coats
tiptoed around any potential conflict with his boss, but was
upfront about some of his misgivings, saying that he
wished Trump had made different statements Monday in
Helsinki after meeting Putin.
Coats, who is charged with overseeing the nation’s 17
intelligence agencies, also said that if he had been asked,
he would have advised Trump against meeting Putin alone,
with just interpreters.
“That’s not my role. That’s not my job. It is what it is,”
Coats said in a verbal shrug.
“I don’t know what happened in that meeting.”
Coats said he was just doing his job when he quickly
issued a statement Monday after the president appeared to
give credence to Russia’s denial of election interference. In
that statement, Coats restated the U.S. intelligence assess-
ment about Russian meddling and Moscow’s “ongoing, per-
vasive efforts to undermine our democracy.”
“I just felt, at this point in time, that what we had
assessed and re-assessed, and reassessed ... still stands and
that it was important to take that stand on behalf of the
intelligence community and behalf of the American peo-
ple,” Coats said.

Did Trump and Putin agree
to anything? Only they know
By Matthew Lee
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Donald Trump and
Vladimir Putin may have reached several
historic agreements at their summit in
Finland this week. Or, they may not have. It
depends on who you talk to. Three days later
no one was quite sure.
With no details emerging from the lead-
ers’ one-on-one discussion on Monday —
other than the vague outline they offered
themselves — officials, lawmakers and cit-
izens in the U.S. in particular are wondering
what, if anything, was actually agreed to.
Both Trump and Putin have declared the
meeting a grand success that is soon to reap
great rewards in numerous geopolitical
realms, yet even the most complete
accounting of the talks — one provided by
Putin — suggests that any outcomes are far
from certain.
And, the fact that a high-profile, high-
stakes summit between the commanders in
chief of the world’s two biggest nuclear
powers could be held without a solid
achievement or failure to point to has flum-
moxed many.
In the U.S., frustration with the lack of
information has raised already heightened
suspicions of Trump. Democratic lawmak-
ers have pushed to subpoena the notes of
the State Department interpreter who trans-
lated for Trump or compel her to testify.
Republicans have blocked the move.
Officials said Thursday the White House and
State Department were also likely to fight
such a move as a breach of executive author-
ity, making the appearance of the notes
unlikely until they are published in a his-
torical record decades from now.

worked in his landmark summit with North
Korean leader Kim Jong Un last month. But
this time there was no joint statement to
formalize the outcome of the talks — just a
meandering, 45-minute press conference
where Trump stoked controversy by appear-
ing to side with Putin over U.S. intelligence
agencies’ assessment that Russia meddled in
the 2016 election.
Russia’s ambassador to the U.S., Anatoly
Antonov, expressed hope Thursday that
“the verbal agreements between Putin and
Trump will be fulfilled” — though the sub-
stance of any such understandings remain
murky, not least because the main business
was conducted in the two hours of discus-
sions between the two leaders with only
translators joining them.
On Thursday, the Trump administration

Melania Trump listens to
students talk about online civility
WASHINGTON — Melania Trump spent part of Thursday
listening to more than a dozen teens talk about their best
practices for being civil online.
The first lady made the short trip to
Microsoft’s Innovation and Policy
Center in Washington as part of a nation-
wide child well-being campaign she
launched this year called “Be Best, ”
which includes teaching children and
youth to be good citizens online.

Melania Trump try participate in Microsoft’s Council
for Digital Good and provide ideas and
feedback for policy work the computer software maker does
on the issue of youth-centered online safety.
The first lady also took in art projects the students
designed to represent individual expressions of digital
civility, her office said.
Digital civility is one element of the first lady’s “Be
Best” campaign, though her husband is regularly criticized
for his own practices online and has weaponized his Twitter
account against his foes.
She thanked the students for sharing what she said was
impressive and encouraging work.
“To see students taking action and being positive leaders
in the digital world for youth is exactly what Be Best is
focused on,” the first lady said in a written statement after
the visit, which was not announced until she arrived at
Microsoft.
New York state launches
tax probe of Trump Foundation
ALBANY, N.Y. — New York tax officials are investigat-
ing the Trump Foundation to determine whether President
Donald Trump or his charity broke state
law.
The probe began about a month ago
and was confirmed Thursday by a state
official with knowledge of the investiga-
tion.
The official wasn’t authorized to speak
publicly about active investigations and
spoke to the Associated Press on condi-
tion of anonymity.
Donald Trump Asked about the investigation,
Democratic Gov. Andrew Cuomo said the “law is the law”
when it comes to any charity.
The matter could be referred to prosecutors, who could
seek the release of Trump’s tax returns.
The investigation, first reported by The New York Times,
follows Democratic Attorney General Barbara Underwood’s
lawsuit alleging Trump used foundation money to settle
business disputes and promote his presidential campaign.
Trump calls the lawsuit “ridiculous.”
Trump aims to end automatic
protections for some species
DENVER — The Trump administration on Thursday pro-
posed ending automatic protections for threatened animals
and plants and limiting habitat safeguards meant to shield
recovering species from harm.
Administration officials said the new rules would advance
conservation by simplifying and improving how the land-
mark Endangered Species Act is used.
“These rules will be very protective,” said U.S. Interior
Department Deputy Secretary David Bernhardt, adding that
the changes would reduce the “conflict and uncertainty”
associated with many protected species.
The proposals drew immediate condemnation from
Democrats and some wildlife advocates.
Critics said the moves would speed extinctions in the
name of furthering its anti-environment agenda. Species
currently under consideration for protections are considered
especially at risk, including the North American wolverine
and the monarch butterfly, they said.

Farmers fret and wait as U.S.
and China trade war escalates
By Steve Karnowski
and Blake Nicholson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
MINNEAPOLIS — Many anxious
American farmers are delaying pur-
chases and investment while hoping
for a truce in a U.S.-China trade war
that has left their crops at a competi-
tive disadvantage overseas.
The longer the Trump administra-
tion’s tariffs remain in place, the more
China’s retaliatory tariffs against
American exports stand to hurt U.S.
soybean and pork producers.
President Donald Trump’s adminis-
tration on July 6 carried out its threat
to impose 25 percent tariffs on $34
billion worth of Chinese products,
alleging that Beijing steals or pres-
sures U.S. companies to hand over
technology. China responded with
similar duties on the same amount of
U.S. imports — including soybeans
and pork. The administration July 10
announced a second possible round tar-
geting $200 billion worth of goods.
Beijing vowed “firm and forceful meas-
ures” in response.
“From a farmer’s perspective all you
can do is wait and hope, which aren’t
very good options, ” said Michael
Petefish, who grows soybeans and
corn near Claremont in southern
Minnesota. “If you can afford not to be
selling your beans now, just put them
in the bin and store them and wait for
better markets. That’s about all you
can do.”

Chuck Patsche, stand to be doubly
affected. They grow corn and soybeans

ern Minnesota. She said the main
Trump slams rate increases by Federal Reserve
By Zeke Miller,
Josh Boak and Ken Thomas
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — President Donald
Trump on Thursday cast aside concerns
about the Federal Reserve’s independ-
ence, saying he was “not happy” with
the Fed’s recent interest rate increases.
Trump told CNBC in an interview: “I
don’t like all of this work that we’re
putting into the economy and then I
see rates going up.”
Last month, the Fed raised its bench-
mark rate for a second time this year
and projected two more increases in
2018. Its rate hikes are meant to pre-
vent the economy from overheating
and igniting high inflation.
But rate increases also make borrow-
ing costlier for households and compa-
nies and can weaken the pace of
growth. In particular, the Fed’s most
recent rate hikes could dilute some of
the benefit of the tax cuts Trump signed

thing they and their neighbors have
done to cushion themselves is to delay
investment in their farming operation.
“There will be no equipment purchas-
es, no improvements, just holding our
own. Basically a holding pattern. And
hoping things are going to get worked
out fairly quickly,” she said.
Farmers often hedge against price
downturns by selling part of their crop
on the futures market, locking in an
early price for crops they’ll harvest in
the fall. Patsche said she and her hus-
band marketed a little of their 2018
crop, so they can count on a profit for
those bushels, but they’d take a loss if
they sold any more at current prices.
So they’re hoping the markets get
some good news that will send prices
back up.

his comments about

The Fed’s dual mandate is to maxi-

By maintaining its independence, the
central bank can make politically con-

crisis to help drive down long-term
rates to support the economy. That
policy drew rebukes from many

interview with the radio program
Marketplace that he didn’t expect to
face pressure from the White House.
“We have a long tradition here of
conducting policy in a particular way,
and that way is independent of all
political concerns,” Powell said. “We
do our work in a strictly nonpolitical
way, based on detailed analysis, which
we put on the record transparently.”
He added, “No one in the administra-
tion has said anything to me that real-
ly gives me concern on this front.”
The reaction to Trump’s remarks in
the financial markets was muted. The
U.S. dollar fell to 112.46 yen from
112. 84 yen earlier, and yields on
Treasurys dipped slightly.
After Trump’s interview with CNBC
was made public, Lindsay Walters, a
White House spokeswoman, said the
president “respects the independence
of the Fed.”

Letters to the editor
This letter is in response to the
article on the Managed Lanes traffic
initiative (“Lane effort building its
momentum”) that was published in
the July 16 edition of the Daily
Journal. It seems unreasonable to
provide an ultimatum between
express lanes or no project. Is this
just a way to force more taxes onto
residents?
Carpool lanes make much more
sense. They benefit everyone equally
and encourage people to carpool.
Carpool lanes provide a natural way
to ease traffic congestion while pro-
moting environmental protection.
They allow people to take personal
responsibility for the well-being of
our highways and environment.
Express lanes, on the other hand,
can leave a bad taste. They take con-
trol from people and force you to pay
for the privilege of a better com-
mute. It takes the pleasant feeling of
doing good for the environment and
your community and turns it into a
burden and creates yet another vehi-
cle for divisiveness.
While consultant Leo Scott sug-
gested tolls would average $1 per
mile, the toll is most certainly
going to rise following the current
rise in transit taxes. As the toll price
rises, so too would the divisiveness
between commuters. While $1 per
mile may not seem like much to
some, for minimum wage workers it
may well account for a good portion
of their hourly rate. It would be a
shame for this initiative to turn into
another mechanism for the affluent
to pay their way to a better and less
stressful life.

Monday’s San Mateo City Council
meeting had some apparent actors in
favor of developers, as concerning
Measure P. Three people came from
outside our city (Millbrae, Hayward
and Foster City) to voice their desire
for a maximum density building in

Another three or four people pref-

opinions are my own and not from
their organization or company.” Huh?
It was strange and interesting how
they all had almost the exact same
preface, word for word (perhaps a
lawyer prompted them?). One man
inferred that the Measure P petition
and the signers were racists, which
got a howl from the audience and then
a reprimand from the council. Was he
trying to incite a reaction to make the
petitioners look bad, or what?
One nice mom holding her baby
said more should be built for her
baby’s future, as she adoringly looked
down to her baby. Wow, I’m really
hoping she’s not acting and using her
baby as a prop. It truly seemed like
the developers and their ilk tried to
stack the speakers in their favor for
maximum density buildings with
unlimited heights.
It is amazing to see what outra-
geous lengths power and greed will
go to (this is not a question, just in
awe). At the beginning of the meet-
ing, a large majority of the crowd
stood when asked if they worked on
or signed the Measure P petition,
hopefully the City Council won’t for-
get that or the more than 7,000 citi-
zens that signed the petition, as all
these question will forever persist.

Lead by
example
M
y daughter and I are doing a reading program
together in which I am learning more instruc-
tive ways to read with her and she is getting
tips on how to understand our interesting language.
She is doing fine for her age but it always helps to get
pointers. I find the whole thing fascinating since I’m a
big fan of how letters work with each other to form
words as the building blocks of our language and then
how words work with others to form sentences, and so
on.
To me, words are inherently interesting and this class
allows me to think of things I haven’t before. For
instance, in the letter “said,” if “I” leave, it is “sad.” Fun
right? OK, maybe just for me. But my daughter seems to
get a kick out of the fact that
I’m getting such a kick out of
it so we have that going for
us.
The class is divided up into
two parts, with parent
involvement first. Come part
two, parents can leave or
stay. Some take off, some
stay, but the cellphones come
out pretty much right away.
And then it’s the zombie
scroll. You’ve seen it right?
Nothing in particular is catch-
ing attention, so it’s like a
never-ending slot machine of
images and words to fill time.
I notice it too in swimming class. The parents sit
along the deck, ostensibly watching their child’s lesson
but, more often than not, you will see the typical phone
hunch, and the “mm, hm, good job,” to the child when
they grab the parent’s attention.
I’m not necessarily poking at the parents who take
their children’s classes as an opportunity to catch up on
email or reading, or whatever else they find on their cell-
phone, but I do think there should be some sort of aware-
ness of learned behavior.
Just as children may have more of an interest in read-
ing books if a parent reads books, they might have an
interest in cellphones if their parent is always on their
cellphones. Same with video games. I have seen a dad
play some sort of shoot ‘em up video game during an
entire swim class, then have the child take an interest
once they are done. That’s normal behavior and it might
actually create a bond between the two over the video
game. I do think parents have a responsibility to lead by
example, however, and conduct themselves in a way that
they would like their children to emulate.
We hear too often that a certain young generation
spends all their time on their phones and doesn’t know
how to interact with others because of it. Yet this is
behavior that was learned. Parents can lead by example
and try to be present for their children’s activities and
lessons and offer encouragement or advice based on what
be reading too much into this and some parents who I see
on their phones may be passively paying attention or
able to multi-task in ways I cannot.
I also know that I am less than perfect as well. On a
recent weekend, I was at a museum learning about
Renaissance Spanish ceilings when a work matter needed
my attention and I spent a few minutes texting a co-
worker as my daughter waited for me to finish so she
could tell me what she learned. We lead busy lives and
technology has a way of barging in when it likes rather
than on our schedule. But that doesn’t mean we have to
be slaves to it. And if we want our children to be present
and to avoid an overreliance on technology, we too
should try our best to leave the phone out of our hands
when with them. Study after study has proven that the
technology found on our cellphones leads to our detri-
ment. For our own health, and that of our children, it
might be best to simply watch them learn and play and
maybe even learn a little about ourselves while not
latching onto a device to kill our time. Our time is pre-
cious, and not to be killed. We should cherish it and try
to be aware of own existence and that of our children’s as
much as possible without a distracting device. Who
knows what we may learn without it? Perhaps it is as
simple as said becoming sad without I. Or perhaps it
might be something altogether more meaningful, but we
won’t know unless we try.

Trade issues weigh on market

By Marley Jay
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Trade issues
again weighed on the market
Thursday as representatives of the
auto industry told Congress they
opposed tariffs on imported cars
and car parts being proposed by
the Trump administration. Banks
and other large U.S. stocks fell,
but smaller and more domestical-
ly-focused companies climbed.
Aluminum producers sank after
Alcoa said the U. S. tariffs on
imported aluminum are costing it
$12 million to $14 million a
month. The tariffs took effect June
1, and Alcoa is one of the first
companies to say how much its
business is being hurt by the
taxes.
The U.S. imported $335 billion
in autos and parts in 2017, so tar-
iffs on those items could dwarf the
taxes the administration has
placed on imported steel, alu-
minum, and goods from China,
although Trump has also threat-
ened to put tariffs on a much larger
portion of Chinese imports.
General Motors and Daimler
have both warned that tariffs could
have major effects on their busi-
nesses. Lindsey Bell, investment
strategist with CFRA, said most
consumers haven’t noticed the
effects of the tariffs yet, but that
will change if cars are taxed.
“It will significantly increase
the price of a car and the consumer
will definitely pull back” on
spending, she said, adding that
foreign automakers with factories
in the U.S. might move those jobs
overseas.
“There’s a lot of jobs that could
be lost if these tariffs go
through,” she said.
Companies that make and dis-
tribute drugs fell after the Trump
administration proposed changes
to government rules on drug price
rebates.
Major banks fell as interest
rates decreased. Weak second-quar-
ter results also weighed on
American Express and Bank of
New York Mellon. President

next week.

Report: Wells Fargo charged Business briefs

customers for hidden services
Wells Fargo & Co. is in the process of
refunding tens of millions of dollars to cus-
tomers for products such as pet insurance,
legal services and other add-on services that
were added to customers’ accounts without
their full understanding, a report says.
The Wall Street Journal, citing unnamed
sources, reported Thursday that the bank for
years charged monthly fees to hundreds of
thousands of customers for dozens of prod-
ucts they didn’t fully understand or know
how to use.
The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau
is looking into the matter, the newspaper
reports.
Wells Fargo said in a statement emailed to
the Associated Press that it is reviewing the
add-on products and is working with regula-
tors.
Loon’s first commercial
internet balloon deal is in Kenya
MOUNTAIN VIEW — Loon, the internet-
delivering-balloon unit of Google-parent
Alphabet, is announcing its first commer-
cial deal.
The company says it will work with part-
ner Telkom Kenya to deliver 4G/LTE cellular
access to Kenya in 2019.
The announcement comes just a week after
Loon graduated from Alphabet’s secretive
“moonshot factory” known as X. That
means it’s considered a full-fledged company
beside sister companies including Google
and self-driving car developer Waymo.
The balloons will be tested in central
Kenya, which has been difficult to service
due to mountainous or inaccessible terrain.
The high-altitude balloons have already
been deployed in emergencies in Peru and
Puerto Rico, where they helped regions dev-
astated by floods and hurricanes.
Exponent reports

MENLO PARK — Exponent Inc. on
Thursday reported second-quarter net income
of $18.4 million.
The Menlo Park, California-based compa-
ny said it had profit of 34 cents per share.
The engineering and scientific consulting
company posted revenue of $95.6 million in
the period.
Exponent shares have increased 42 per-
cent since the beginning of the year. In the
final minutes of trading on Thursday, shares
hit $50.43, an increase of 52 percent in the
last 12 months.
Skechers reports

MANHATTAN BEACH — Skechers USA
Inc. on Thursday reported second-quarter
earnings of $45.3 million.
On a per-share basis, the Manhattan
Beach-based company said it had net income
of 29 cents.
The results did not meet Wall Street expec-
tations. The average estimate of five ana-
lysts surveyed by Zacks Investment
Research was for earnings of 40 cents per
share.
Comcast dropping Fox bid,
paves way for sale to Disney
By Mael Anderson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Comcast is dropping its
bid for Fox’s entertainment businesses,
paving the way for Disney to boost its
upcoming streaming service by buying the
studios behind “The Simpsons” and X-Men.
Comcast can now focus on its pursuit of
European pay-TV operator Sky, a deal that
would give the Philadelphia-based cable and
media company a larger presence outside the
U.S.
The moves come as the media landscape is
shifting dramatically. Cable and telecom
companies are buying content makers to
compete with popular streaming services
such as Netflix and Amazon. AT&T bought
Time Warner last month for $81 billion.
Comcast had been dueling with Disney
for Twenty-First Century Fox, but
Comcast said Thursday that it would not
raise its $66 billion offer for Fox. The
Walt Disney Co. had topped Comcast’s
Zuckerberg’s Holocaust comment
putting Facebook in the hot seat
By Barbara Ortutay
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Denying the Holocaust
happened is probably OK on Facebook.
Calling for a mob to kill Jews is not.
Mark Zuckerberg’s awkward and eyebrow-
raising attempt this week to explain where
Facebook draws the line illustrates the
complexities social media platforms face as
they take on the unwanted role of referee in
this age of online misinformation, manipu-
lation and hate speech.
Facebook, with 2.2 billion users, disal-
lows such things as nudity, the selling of
guns, credible threats of violence, and
direct attacks on people because of their
race, sex or sexual orientation.
Hours after the Facebook founder’s com-
ments about Holocaust deniers aired on
Wednesday, the company announced it will
bid by offering $71 billion.
The U. S. Department of Justice has
approved Disney’s bid as long as Disney,
which owns the national sports network
ESPN, sells Fox’s 22 regional sports net-
works. Fox shareholders are set to vote on
Disney’s offer July 27.
Disney CEO Bob Iger said he was
“extremely pleased” with Comcast’s
announcement.
“Our focus now is on completing the reg-
ulatory process and ultimately moving
toward integrating our businesses,” he said
in a statement.
If the deal closes, Disney would get a con-
trolling stake in streaming service Hulu and
Twentieth Century Fox film and TV studios.
Disney owns Marvel Studios, but some
characters including the X-Men had already
been licensed to Fox. A sale means the X-
Men and the Avengers could reunite in future
movies. With Fox, Disney would also have
a larger library of movies and shows for a
streaming service set to debut next year.
also start removing misinformation that
could lead to bloodshed.
The policy will begin in Sri Lanka and
expand to Myanmar, where Facebook users
have been accused of inciting anti-Muslim
violence.
But beyond those guidelines, there are
large gray areas. What, exactly, qualifies as
supporting terrorist groups versus merely
posting about them? Or mocking some-
one’s premature death — something that is
also prohibited?
If Facebook were to ban Holocaust denial,
it might also be called on to prohibit the
denial of other historical events, such as
the Armenian genocide or the massacre of
Native Americans by European colonizers.
This, Facebook might argue, could lead to a
slippery slope where the company finds
itself trying to verify the historical accura-
cy of users’ posts.

The journey continues

for Bethany Hamilton
By Bernie Wilson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN DIEGO — Surf’s up again for
Bethany Hamilton, who’s back to riding
waves four months after giving birth to her
second son.
Hamilton has earned a wild-card spot in
the first Surf Ranch Pro at the World Surf
League’s Surf Ranch in Lemoore,
California.
It’s a big step for Hamilton, 28, who has
forged a strong surfing career as well as sev-
eral off-the-water pursuits since losing her
left arm to a tiger shark 15 years ago.
“It’s been a beautiful time in my life but I
definitely love getting back in the ocean
and getting my surf game back on, except
this is going to be at the Surf Ranch,” she
said in a phone interview during a break
from a training session this week.
The Surf Ranch Pro, the eighth stop on
the Women’s Championship Tour, will be
Sept. 6-9 at the gigantic wave pool that is
the brainchild of Kelly Slater. It’s located in
California’s Central Valley, some 100 miles
from the Pacific Ocean.
Hamilton impressed WSL officials when
she recently rode the artificial waves at the WORLDSURFLEAGUE.COM
Surf Ranch. Her performance at the Fiji Bethany Hamilton, who lost her arm to a shark attack 15 years ago, has thrived in the sport.

The rich get richer

Golden State officially adds injured All Star DeMarcus Cousins
By Michael Wagaman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
OAKLAND — DeMarcus Cousins spent
his first eight seasons in the NBA chasing
two things — peace and the playoffs.
After signing with Golden State as a free
agent, the four-time All-Star center has no
doubts he’ll finally find both, and that
those will help dispel the notion that he’s a
bad teammate.
“Just a chance to play for a winning cul-
ture,” Cousins said Thursday. “I also have a
chance to play with some of the most tal-
ented players of this era. Those two things
alone, that pretty much sums it up.”
Looking relaxed while sitting on a stage
next to Warriors general manager Bob
Myers, Cousins was at ease during a news
conference at the team’s practice facility.
Golden State’s fiery big man seems con-
tent in his new surroundings and wants the
hardware to show for it.
“Every guy said let’s go get another
championship,” Cousins said. “They are a
well-established team and they could have
easily been like, ‘No, we don’t need him.’
But they were excited like a team that’s
never accomplished anything.”
While his signing in Golden State drew
mostly groans from around the NBA,
Cousins didn’t need much persuading to
join the two-time defending champions. He
has never played in the postseason, is com-
ing off Achilles surgery in January and did-
n’t attract much attention in free agency
until signing a $5.3 million, one-year con-
tract with Golden State.
From the Warriors’ side, it’s a case of the
rich getting richer. They’ve won the cham-
pionship three of the past four seasons with

Kisner leads
Open after

By Doug Ferguson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CARNOUSTIE, Scotland — The silver
claret jug was on the first tee Thursday morn-
ing at Carnoustie, a trophy that Kevin
Kisner knows all too well.
Kisner flew home from the British Open
last year with Jordan Spieth, a flight that
was delayed while waiting on Spieth to fin-
ish up his duties as the
champion golfer of the
year. Just last week,
Kisner was on the plane

see the Ryder Cup course,
and Spieth had to bring

Kevin Kisner arrived at this links
along the North Sea.
“And I’m staying with him this week, and
he no longer has it,” Kisner said. “He gave it
back Monday. It would be cool to return the
favor.”
Kisner played like he was serious about
that.
He made a long eagle putt on the par-5
sixth. He ran off three straight birdies on the
back nine. Kisner finished with a 5-under 66
before some 60 players had even started the
opening round, and nobody could catch him.
In what might be the easiest conditions of
the week, Kisner kept the ball in play and
made just about everything. He took only
22 putts and had a one-shot lead, giving him
little more than bragging rights in the

New format will up pressure at Rugby World Cup

American Perry Baker is the
reigning sevens Player of the Year.
By Foster Niumata
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
The path to the Rugby World Cup Sevens
title is the shortest ever.
Then again, the path out of contention is the
shortest ever, too.
A new format for the seventh championship
starting on Friday in San Francisco has dumped
pool play and gone straight to knockout
rounds, seemingly to appeal to a perceived
shorter attention span of American fans.
World Rugby has called the change exciting
and innovative. Others see the immediate pres-
sure as brutal.
“Talking to most coaches among the world
series teams (the format) is not a very popular
thing,” said Damian McGrath, the Canada and
former Samoa coach.
Australia coach Tim Walsh added: “If you’re
off your game, then see you later.”
For the men’s event, there’s preliminary and
last-16 games on Friday, quarterfinals on
Saturday, and semifinals and final on Sunday at
AT&T Park, the waterside home of baseball’s
San Francisco Giants. The women start from
the round of 16.
Walsh said the format makes the champi-
onships more mentally imposing than physi-
cally.
Neil Powell, coach of world series-winning
South Africa, agreed. He warned that after wait-
ing around all day Friday, his team and the

PBS film explores Williams’ hidden heritage
By Russel Contreras
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ALBQUERQUE, N.M. — Ted Williams is
the last major league baseball player to hit
over .400. The Boston Red Sox slugger cap-
tivated millions with his dazzling swing
and towering homers throughout the 1940s
and 1950s in competition with New York
Yankees hero Joe DiMaggio.
But beneath the smiles and happy trots
around the bases sat a man consumed with
rage. For years, the baseball legend would
shun his ethnic heritage and kept his fami-
ly’s past a secret. Only when he’d begin to
speak out on behalf of black players would
he begin to slowly reveal his connections
to his Mexican-American Southern
California family and the experiences that
shaped him.
A new PBS “American Masters” documen-
tary explores the life of Williams and his
volatile relationships with his family and
the press. The upcoming film uses rare
footage and family interviews to paint a
picture of an entangled figure who hid his
past while enjoying the admiration of ador-
ing fans. It includes unreleased color
footage of Williams’ final game that was
shot by a fan.

Red Sox and Yankees heading
for compelling AL East finish
By Jay Cohen
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CHICAGO — Mookie Betts and the major
league-leading Red Sox are on pace for 100-
plus wins. Same for Aaron Judge and the
Yankees, and the World Series champion
Astros, too.
The Orioles, White Sox and Royals are on
track to lose more than 100.
It’s the haves and the have-nots as base-
ball returns after the All-Star break.
“There’s a few good teams out there that
they’re going to make it interesting in the
second half,” Red Sox manager Alex Cora
said. “That’s why you got to show up every
day and keep playing. We had a great first
part of the season, but that doesn’t guaran-
tee us anything in October, going to
October.”
The Dodgers know all about October, and
they are a World Series contender once
again. Especially with the addition of
Manny Machado.
The NL West leaders got a head start on the
July 31 non-waiver trade deadline by send-
ing five prospects to Baltimore on
Wednesday for Machado, an All-Star short-
stop capable of powering Los Angeles to its
first title in 30 years.
“Any time you have a chance to add an

something you have to look at closely,”
Dodgers general manager Farhan Zaidi said.

Hall of Famer regularly
clashed with critical jour-

wives. The slugger also lost prime years
because of service in World War II and the
Korean War — something that angered him.
“We wanted to know...who was this man,
who had such an effect on so many people?”
director Nick Davis said. “He was so com-
plicated and so full of contradictions and
rages. Where did it all come from?”
The San Diego-born Williams played 19
years as a left fielder for the Boston Red Sox
where he won two American League Most
Valuable Player Awards and twice took the
Triple Crown. He finished his career with a
.344 batting average and 521 home runs,
both of which rank among the top in base-

While many of Williams’ professional
accomplishments and personal clashes were
widely known, Davis said few knew about

Machado might be the biggest star to
switch teams this month, but there will be
plenty of players on the move.

“The Kid: The Immortal Life of Ted
Williams.”
Davis said Williams kept his Mexican-
American heritage a secret at a time when no
black players were allowed in the major
leagues and the Red Sox were owned by Tom
Yawkey, a controversial figure who was the
last owner to integrate a major league base-
ball team.
Williams was born to Samuel Stuart
Williams, a white photographer and pickle
salesman, and May Venzor, a Mexican-
American Salvation Army devotee who
often volunteered in Tijuana, Mexico, leav-
ing Williams and his brother to fend for
themselves with their alcoholic father,
Bradlee said. His Mexican family ended up
in San Diego as tension simmered before
the Mexican Revolution began in 1910.
It’s a past Williams concealed until near
the end of his life, said Bradlee. “He was
ashamed.”
After his sensational 1939 rookie year,
Williams returned to San Diego to find
around 20 of his Mexican-Americans rela-
tives waiting for him at the train station.
Williams took one look at them and fled.
Bradlee, who was among those inter-
viewed for the film and who found some of
Williams’ cousins, said the family remained
— Alex Cora, Boston Red Sox manager
for much of the first half, and the NL East
looks like a three-team race.
Washington was supposed to be one of
the haves this year, but it hasn’t worked out
so far. The Nationals hit the break with a
.500 record, looking up at the surprising
Phillies and Braves.
But ace right-hander Stephen Strasburg,
first baseman Ryan Zimmerman and closer
Sean Doolittle are set to return from
injuries, and it looked as if Bryce Harper
regained some of his swagger with his win
in the All-Star Home Run Derby in his home
ballpark.
“We’ve got to battle,” Harper said. “I
think the Braves are really good, the
Phillies are good and those are two teams
that are probably going to make some
moves as well. Looking forward to the sec-
ond half. Looking forward to do what we
need to do.”
While the NL features three tight division
races, there is nothing like the duel in the
AL East, or the crowded AL West for that
matter.

proud of his on-the-field achievements.
“But you can see they were a little bit hurt
that he had shunned them,” Bradlee said.
In the film, daughter Claudia Williams
said she would sometimes ask her father
about his mother. But he refused to talk
about her, or his past, she said.
Williams was inducted into the Baseball
Hall of Fame as soon as he became eligible.
Williams wanted to use his speech to call for
the Hall of Fame to recognize players of the
Negro Leagues who had been excluded sole-
ly based on their skin color. Friends would
say Williams, despite his own ambivalence
about his own background, remembered the
discrimination Mexican Americans faced in
California.
But baseball officials wanted Williams to
drop the reference. “You don’t tell Ted
Williams what he can and cannot do, ”
Claudia Williams said in the film.
Williams gave his Hall of Fame speech
his way, and soon after, players of the
Negro Leagues were inducted into the Hall of
Fame.

A’s release reliever Santiago Casilla
OAKLAND — The Oakland Athletics have
released veteran reliever Santiago Casilla,
five days after he was designated for assign-
ment.
The A’s made the move Thursday.
Casilla is 42-31 with 144 career saves in 15
seasons, but has been up and down with the A’s
this year while having control issues. Used
primarily in middle relief, the right-hander
has a 3.16 ERA despite 20 walks and four hit
batters in 31 1/3 innings. He turns 38 next

Casilla made his major league debut in 2004
and spent his first six seasons with the A’s
before signing with San Francisco in 2010.
He returned to Oakland last year and had 16
saves.
Angels’ Ohtani cleared to
begin throwing progression
ANAHEIM — The Los Angeles Angels say
two-way star Shohei Ohtani’s elbow ligament
is continuing to heal and he has been medical-
ly cleared to begin a throwing progression.
The team said Ohtani was given a six-week
evaluation Thursday by Dr. Steve Yoon at the
Kerlan Jobe Institute. The Angels said they
would release specifics about his progress and
rehabilitation schedule at another time.
Ohtani was placed on the disabled list with
an ulnar collateral ligament sprain on June 8
after complaining about tightness in his right
elbow following a June 6 start against Kansas
City. The Japanese sensation has since
returned to the roster as a designated hitter, but
his prospects to pitch remain unclear.
He is hitting .283 with seven home runs and
22 RBIs. On the mound, Ohtani won four of
his first five decisions before getting injured.

Miami anthem punishment includes suspensions
By Rob Maaddi
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Miami Dolphins players who protest on the
field during the national anthem could be sus-
pended for up to four games under a team poli-
cy issued this week.
The “Proper Anthem Conduct” section is
just one sentence in a nine-page discipline
document provided to the Associated Press by
a person familiar with the policy who insisted
on anonymity because the document is not
public. It classifies anthem protests under a
large list of “conduct detrimental to the club,”
all of which could lead to a paid or unpaid sus-
pension, a fine or both.
The Dolphins said in a statement: “The NFL
required each team to submit their rules regard-
ing the anthem before their players reported
to training camp. We will address this issue
once the season starts. All options are still
open.”
Miami can choose not to issue any suspen-
sions nor fine any player who protests the
anthem. Some of the other “violations” listed
under “conduct detrimental to the club” include
drug use or possession, gambling, breaking
curfew and riding motorcycles as a driver or
passenger from the start of camp until the last
game of the season.
The team’s rookies reported on Wednesday.
University of New Mexico cuts some teams
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — The Board of
Regents at New Mexico’s flagship university
voted Thursday to eliminate four sports teams
and make other changes to its troubled athlet-
ic department to address persistent budget
problems and failures to meet federal gender
equity requirements under Title IX.
University President Garnett S. Stokes and
athletic director Eddie Nunez presented recom-
mendations to cut men’s soccer, along with
the men’s and women’s skiing and beach vol-
leyball programs, during a special meeting.
The unanimous vote came after the board
heard hours of testimony from coaches, play-
ers, alumni and community members about the
importance of the programs. Some in the
crowd responded with boos and heckles.
“This is a very difficult day,” Stokes told
reporters after the meeting. “We would not be
here if we did not believe this was absolutely
essential for us to do.”
She and the regents acknowledged that not

athletic department or finding ways to come
SPORTS
“The NFL required each team to submit their rules regarding the
anthem before their players reported to training camp. We will
address this issue once the season starts. All options are still open.”
Dolphins veteran receiver Kenny Stills
took a knee with a hand on his heart during the
anthem throughout last season. Defensive
tackle Jordan Phillips put his arm around
Stills before one game. Two other players who
knelt — safety Michael Thomas and tight end
Julius Thomas — are no longer with the team.
Defensive end Robert Quinn, who raised his
fist during the anthem while with the Rams, is
now with the Dolphins.
Miami’s anthem policy comes after the NFL
decided in May that teams would be fined if
players didn’t stand during “The Star-Spangled
Banner” while on the field. The league left it
up to teams on how to punish players. None of
the team policies have been made public.
Jets acting owner Christopher Johnson said
shortly after the league announced its policy
that he will not punish his players for any
peaceful protests — and would pay any poten-
tial fines incurred by the team as a result of his
players’ actions.
The NFL rule forbids players from sitting or
taking a knee if they are on the field or side-
into compliance with Title IX requirements
would end up being more costly for the univer-
sity and could potentially lead to more federal
intervention.
Many options were reviewed, but Stokes
said every potential opportunity for maintain-
ing the teams would have meant finding sig-
nificantly more recurring funding or exponen-
tially increasing student fees.
“You’re talking about huge amounts of
money,” she said.
Men’s soccer has perhaps the highest pro-
file nationally of Lobos men’s sports, having
twice reached the Final Four and the champi-
onship game once.
Head coach Jeremy Fishbein, who has been
quite vocal in support of the athletic depart-
ment and his program, warned regents the uni-
versity could become a laughingstock if his
team and the other programs were eliminated.
He touted the academic success of student-ath-
letes, their contributions to the community
and the effects they will have on the world as
young leaders.
“How do you put a price on that?” Fishbein
asked.

— Statement from Miami Dolphins
lines during the national anthem, but allows
them to stay in the locker room if they wish.
The new league rules were challenged this
month in a grievance by the players union.
The NFL declined to comment.
“Players who are on the field during the
Anthem performance must stand and show
respect for the flag and the Anthem,” says the
16th and final bullet point on Miami’s list of
conduct considered detrimental, below dis-
paraging teammates, coaches or officials
including NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell.
The NFLPA said earlier this month that the
NFL policy, which the league imposed with-
out consultation with the players union, is
inconsistent with the collective bargaining
agreement and infringes on player rights. The
filing will be heard by an independent arbitra-
tor, an NFLPA spokesman said.
When the league announced the policy,
Goodell called it a compromise aimed at put-
ting the focus back on football after a tumul-
tuous year in which television ratings dipped
nearly 10 percent.
With the vote, the programs will be discon-
tinued as of July 1, 2019. University officials
say they will honor the scholarships of the
affected student athletes through their gradua-
tion.
The athletic department overestimated rev-
enues and overspent its budget nine of the past
11 years, resulting in a deficit of nearly $5
million. While it was tasked with reducing its
annual spending by nearly $2 million by
2020, officials are still predicting a recurring
deficit of $2.3 million in 2019.
Some in the audience criticized the athletic
department for its history of fiscal misman-
agement and questionable spending by the
previous administration, saying it was unfair
to cut the teams.
They called for more scrutiny to be placed on
the budgets of more costly programs like foot-
ball and basketball.
In April, regents approved a plan calling for
reducing the number of sports to help close the
spending gap and cut future expenses. With 22
sports, New Mexico supports the most pro-
grams in the Mountain West Conference. The
national average is 16 to 18.
Friday • July 20, 2018 13
The NFL started requiring players to be on
the field for the anthem in 2009 — the year it
signed a marketing deal with the military.
The union said when it filed the grievance
that it proposed having its executive commit-
tee talk to the NFL instead of litigating. The
union said the NFL agreed to those discus-
sions.
In 2016, then-49ers quarterback Colin
Kaepernick began protesting police brutality,
social injustice and racial inequality by kneel-
ing during the national anthem and the
demonstration spread to other players and
teams. It became one of the most controver-
sial and sensitive issues in sports.
Critics led by President Donald Trump called
the players unpatriotic and even said NFL
owners should fire any player who refused to
stand during the anthem. Some players coun-
tered that their actions were being miscon-
strued and that they are seeking social change
rather than protesting the anthem itself.
Trump’s criticism led more than 200 players
to protest during one weekend, and some kept
it up throughout the season.
“We want people to be respectful of the
national anthem. We want people to stand,”
Goodell said at the May meetings, when he
dismissed concerns about the lack of union
involvement by contending the league met
with countless players over the past year.
Stokes and Nunez said other changes will be
needed to balance the books, such as moving
some functions from the athletic department
to the main campus and that the university has
to look at boosting its own support of athlet-
ics.
An analysis of the university’s sports pro-
grams found that over the past decade, expens-
es have continued to increase, revenues have
decreased and the operating budgets for each
sports program have been incrementally
reduced.
Cutting soccer and the other teams along
with the roster modifications will save an esti-
mated $1.148 million annually, according to
the report.
As for the Title IX requirements, a report
issued in May by an independent firm showed
there were 317 men participating in sports
compared with 247 women, resulting in
inequity when considering the percentage of
men and women who make up the university’s
overall enrollment of full-time undergraduates.
The disparity is greater when viewed in
terms of athletic scholarships, with men
receiving a larger percentage of financial aid.

OKC to trade ’Melo, will likely become free agent

By Cliff Brunt
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
OKLAHOMA CITY — Carmelo Anthony is
done in Oklahoma City.
A person with knowledge of the details told
the Associated Press the Thunder are sending
Anthony and a 2022 protected first-round pick
to Atlanta in exchange for Hawks guard
Dennis Schroder and Mike Muscala. Anthony
will be waived by the Hawks, clearing the way
for him to sign as a free agent elsewhere. The
person spoke Thursday on the condition of
anonymity because he was not authorized to
discuss the situation publicly.
ESPN, which first reported the trade, said
the Thunder will send Muscala to the
Philadelphia 76ers for Timothe Luwawu-
Cabarrot, and Philadelphia’s Justin Anderson
will be sent to Atlanta.
Schroder, a speedy 6-
foot-1 guard, averaged a
career-high 19.4 points
last season for the Hawks
in 67 games, all starts.
Anthony’s lone season
in Oklahoma City was
largely a bust. He averaged
16.2 points and struggled
Carmelo at times in his new role
alongside Russell
Anthony
Westbrook and Paul
George. The 10-time All-Star posted career
lows in scoring average and field goal per-
centage, and the Thunder were ousted in the
first round of the playoffs by Utah.
The 34-year-old Anthony had been the head-
liner his entire career — he’s 19th in NBA his-
tory with 25,417 points — but he was more of
a catch-and-shoot scorer last season instead of
the isolation specialist he had always been.
His playing time dwindled in the playoffs. In
Game 6 of the first-round series against Utah
that ended Oklahoma City’s season, he played
fewer minutes than reserve Jerami Grant. After
the season, he said he prefers to play with the
ball in his hands more and said coming off the
bench is “out of the question.”
Anthony opted in earlier this summer to
accept the $28 million he was due next sea-
son. The Thunder re-signed Grant, then it was
reported that Anthony and the Thunder would
eventually part ways, though it was unclear
how it would happen.
Schroder will likely fill a role for the
Thunder similar to that of James Harden and
Reggie Jackson in the past — explosive play-
er who thrives as a lead scorer with the second
unit. The Thunder are poised to be one of the
best teams in the West after re-signing Paul
George and Grant, adding center Nerlens Noel
and Schroder and getting defensive stopper
Andre Roberson back from a ruptured left
patellar tendon that cost him the last three
months of the season.
Schroder comes with some baggage. He was
arrested in September following a fight at a
hookah bar, an issue that has not been
resolved. He was benched for most of the sec-
ond half in a game during the 2016-17 season
when he began arguing with Dwight Howard
on the court, didn’t guard his man and gave up
an easy basket. He was suspended for one
game in 2017 when he returned late from the
All-Star break. The Hawks at one point con-
sidered Schroder their future cornerstone, but
they switched directions and drafted
Oklahoma’s Trae Young in the first round of
this year. The Hawks also added Brooklyn’s
Jeremy Lin.

WARRIORS

an attack heavy on perimeter shooting and
defense. In the 6-foot-7-inch, 270-pound
Cousins, they now have a dominant pres-
ence on the low block as well.
“It’s a different dimension,” Myers said.
“It’s not something that we’ve ever had as
far as a low-post threat since I’ve been here.
I’m excited. I hope he’s excited.”
Cousins averaged 25.2 points and career
highs in rebounds (12.9), assists (5.4) and
minutes (36.2) with New Orleans before get-
ting hurt. He has been frustrated by the
tediousness of rehab but is being cautious in
his approach.
“I’m progressing weekly, which is a pos-
itive,” Cousins said. “As far as a timetable .
to be determined. I have to be smart about it.
I’m in a unique situation as well where I’m
not needed right away. Time is kind of on
my side so I have a chance to get to 100 per-
cent.
“Making it to the playoffs won’t be an
issue for this team obviously. Once the bas-
ketball part comes, everything else will
take care of itself.”
A throng of media attended the news con-
ference, flanked by 150 young fans who
were taking part in a basketball camp held
by Warriors. Cousins answered questions
from two of the youngsters who were eager
to know who his favorite players were
growing up.
The 27-year-old with a quick temper and a
history of piling up technical fouls at a
rapid rate showed a playful side when he
joked about the possibility of fighting with
new teammates Kevin Durant and Draymond
Green, two players with whom he’s had on-
court issues in the past.
“Might as well,” Cousins said as the
crowd laughed.
Cousins turned serious at one point when
asked about reports that he had been offered
a new contract by New Orleans before sign-
ing with Golden State.
“Only me and (Pelicans general manager)
Dale Demps know what was said on the
phone that night,” Cousins said. “We both
know the truth and I’ll leave it at that.”
As for his new team, Cousins has assimi-
lated quickly. He played with several mem-
bers of the Warriors while winning a gold
medal as part of Team USA during the 2016
Summer Olympics.
“Me and Draymond clicked right away,”
Cousins said. “We’re two goofballs that like
to joke around a lot. Same with KD and same
thing with Steph (Curry). It’s a great group.
I think we’ll mesh well.”
Until he is medically cleared to play,
Cousins will continue to rehab and learn
coach Steve Kerr’s system. He’ll also reach
out to the Oakland community, something
he made a quiet habit of while in Sacramento
playing for the Kings.
“I get out in the ‘hoods,” Cousins said. “I
want to go to the worst, the grimiest places.
That’s where I want to be. Those are usually
the kids or the communities that kind of get
left behind or forgotten about. I feel like I
was in that situation at one point. That’s
where my mindset is and that’s what I stand
for.”

SURF
Continued from page 11
Women’s Pro were some of the best by any
wild card in recent years, earning a semifi-
nal appearance in 2016 and eliminating
eventual WSL Champion Tyler Wright.
Hamilton, who lives in Hawaii with hus-
band Adam and their two boys, said she has-
n’t been in a contest since May 2017,
before she got pregnant.
She surfed the Surf Ranch for the first time
when she was three months pregnant and
then again about a month ago.
“I asked the WSL if I could do a postpar-
tum surf trip, please, and I came up here. It’s
so incredible and super fun,” she said.
Hamilton said she’s not quite where she
wants to be heading into the competition,
but has time to focus on getting her legs
stronger, which will be critical at the Surf
Ranch.
“There are just so many variables in the
ocean,” she said. “Not every wave is alike.
Sometimes the No. 1 surfer is the one who
catches the best waves. With this, every girl
competes on the same wave, a 45-second-
long wave. Most waves in the ocean aver-
age 10 seconds, I guess. So having really fit
leg strength and body strength is important
so you surf through the wave strong. You get
to the end of the wave and your legs drop out
from under you. It’s definitely a fitness sort
of wave.”
The public got its first look at the Surf
Ranch in May during the Founder’s Cup of
Surfing.
“One thing that’s really special about this
event is the public can come front and cen-
ter and watch us surf live,” Hamilton said.
“It’s pretty unique and special as far as being
able to watch your hero surf on a wave right
in front of you.”
Hamilton said competing isn’t necessari-
ly her No. 1 focus. She spent the last four
years working on a surfing documentary,
“Unstoppable, ” that premiered at the
Tribeca Film Festival in April. She hopes to
release it next year. She also wrote a coffee-
table book and does motivational speak-
ing. Her husband wrote a children’s book.
“I’m really thankful for the life I have,”
she said. “So much of life is in your head. So
much of it is mental. I’m thankful for the
amazing family that supports me.”

Fiji’s first match could be against Japan, which includes four
Fijian-born players. If all goes to seedings, Fiji might face
New Zealand in the semifinals, and perhaps South Africa,
England or the United States in the final.
The Americans, despite a mediocre world series, will be for-
midable on home turf. They won the series leg in Las Vegas in
March.
New Zealand is the only team with a chance to become the
first to successfully defend the title. The Kiwis aren’t the force
of old but can’t be underestimated either; they beat England and
Fiji to win the Commonwealth Games in April.
The New Zealand women are a better bet to retain their title.
They won the Commonwealth Games and the last three legs of
the five-leg women’s world series, though finished runner-up to
archrival Australia.
The Australians say they’re back to full strength with the
return from injuries of Olympic champions Alicia Quirk, Ellia
Green, and Sharni Williams.
A women’s final without New Zealand and Australia would be
a major surprise.

Watchdog urges EPA to
bolster oversight after Flint crisis
WASHINGTON — A federal watchdog is
calling on the Environmental Protection
Agency to strengthen its oversight of
state drinking water systems in the wake
of the lead crisis in Flint, Michigan.
The EPA’s Office of Inspector General
says in a report that the agency must take
steps now to be able to react more quickly
in times of public health emergencies.
Flint’s tap water became contaminated

residents complained that older homes have
been demolished or remodeled in such a way
that the historic integrity of the building
was compromised.
According to Redwood City Voice, the
city’s blog, rising property values will also
put “increased pressure to tear down exist-
ing homes.” So officials have identified a
three-step process moving forward, accord-
ing to the blog post.
First, any proposal that entails the demo-
lition of a home in the Mt. Carmel neigh-
borhood or any pre-World War II home in
Redwood City must be reviewed by the
Historic Resource Advisory Committee.
Applicants have been required to submit a
historic report for significant additions or
teardowns, but city staff will now handle
that report. Second, the city would hire a
consultant to conduct a historic district
review of Mt. Carmel, including extensive
community outreach, which could take one

with lead in 2014 after officials switched
from the Detroit system to the Flint River
to save money.
Afterward, some children were found to
have elevated lead levels in their blood.
A whistleblower in the EPA’s Chicago
office warned colleagues about the crisis
in early 2015 but the agency didn’t act
until months later.
The EPA says it agrees with the recom-
to two years. And third, a citywide residen-
tial design guidelines process could take
two to three years to complete.
Whether those plans actually move for-
ward is up to the council.
Historic districts are areas with a concen-
tration of buildings that are at least 50 years
old typically and protected by special
design guidelines and subject to public
review.
Historic districts also typically align
with a theme, said Jim Gernand, chair of the
Historic Resources Advisory Committee.
The city is currently home to three his-
toric districts, including Main Street,
Mezesville and Stambaugh-Heller, but no
neighborhood west of El Camino Real has
been surveyed for historic designation,
only individual properties. Mt. Carmel is
immediately west of downtown with
Sequoia High School at its eastern border.
Gernand said some initial work was done
around 2010 to see if Mt. Carmel would
qualify as a historic district, but the project
was shelved because of limited funding.
Rachel Holt, a Mt. Carmel resident, chair
of Mt. Carmel’s neighborhood association
and former planning commissioner has
mendations and is adopting them.

Political spending in the U.S. is about
to become even more secretive.

one who contributes at least $5,000.

Mt. Carmel Historic District and establish-
ing stricter guidelines for future develop-
ment. She is proposing borders for the his-
toric district from El Camino Real to Myrtle
Street and from Whipple Avenue to
Jefferson Avenue.
“There are some truly amazing and beauti-
ful historic homes in this neighborhood. A
lot of them are getting bulldozed and the
new ones being built are inconsistent with
the surrounding character,” she said, refer-
encing a number of homes built in the teens
and 1920s in a variety of styles, including
Spanish colonial revival, Tudor revival and
craftsman. “Generally people don’t notice
until it’s gone and too late.”
After a teardown, the new home construct-
ed is often much larger, and while size is a
concern of some neighbors calling for his-
toric designation for Mt. Carmel, Holt said
that’s not the issue for her. She said she
remodeled her home and nearly doubled its
size, but in a way that’s “entirely consis-
tent” with the original house.

Election watchdogs who already are con-
cerned about opaque political funding say
the lack of transparency could get worse

losing it,” she said.
Gernand said additions have been made to
many historic homes in Redwood City over
the years.
“The single biggest restriction is it
makes it an issue if you want to tear down
the current home and build a completely new
home, then it comes into play, but as far as
additions and second stories we’ve had
those types of projects successfully done on
historic properties,” he said. “The guide-
lines generally refer to changes to exteriors
and don’t restrict the remodeling of interi-
ors.”
And historic district status won’t be able
to prevent teardowns completely, according
to the city’s blog post.
Gernand also said evidence shows proper-
ty values generally increase with historic
designation and, in some cases, owners of
historic homes are eligible for property tax
breaks.

Looming over the litigation is a prelimi-

dences. Dubbed the Passage at San Mateo,
the mixed-use transit-oriented development
is expected to take advantage of the site’s

Denzel kills in ‘Equalizer 2’
By Mark Kennedy
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
You won’t usually find
Denzel Washington in a
movie sequel. He just doesn’t
do them. Something about not
wanting to repeat himself. So
there must be something spe-
cial indeed for him to break
his own rule for “The
Equalizer 2.”
Fans of the first film will
instantly know why
Washington is drawn to the
character of Robert McCall, a
quiet middle-aged retired spe-
cial-ops agent who fiercely
believes in justice, likes to
help others and dispenses the
occasional lethal judgement
for those deserving.
“We all have to pay for our
sins,” he tells a group of very
bad guys in the new, highly
satisfying edition, before
vowing to hunt each one
dead. His only regret? He can
kill them only once.

“ON THE ROAD IN NOVA SCOTIA”:
PAINTINGS BY JERRY PETERS AT
THE PORTOLA ART GALLERY IN
MENLO PARK. The Portola Art Gallery
presents “On the Road in Nova Scotia” —
paintings by Palo Alto artist Jerry Peters.
The primary paintings in this new show are
done from photos taken on a three-month
road trip around the U.S. and Canada in
2005. Peters’ love of painting began after
he retired from the fire service in 1996. He
spent 30 years as a firefighter, the last 10 as
a Battalion Chief in the Menlo Park Fire
Protection District. His career drove his
early work in acrylics, which featured fire
engines, fire helmets and fire scenes. Now,
Peters often paints from photographs taken
during his travels. His work includes scenes
from France, Italy, Germany, Belgium,
Egypt, Greece, England and Turkey, as well
as from across the U.S. and Canada. “On the
Road in Nova Scotia” — Paintings by Jerry
Peters will be on view from Aug. 1-31 at
Portola Art Gallery at Allied Arts Guild, 75
Arbor Road, Menlo Park. The public is
invited to a reception for the artist 1 p.m.-4

Meaty English-style short ribs are preferred in this recipe to thinner-cut flanken-style ribs. Make sure to choose ribs that are
4 to 6 inches in length and have at least 1 inch of meat on top of the bone.
Flavorful, marbled short
ribs with a crunchy crust
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Flavorful, well-marbled short ribs
seem like the perfect candidate for
grilling, but getting the texture just
right can be a challenge. We wanted
meltingly tender meat with the nicely
browned exterior that the grill pro-
vides — without having to constantly
fiddle with the fire.
We started with a flavorful spice rub
and a sweet-tart glaze. Ground fennel
and cumin added more complex layers
to the rub. For the glaze, we came up
with several options using tangy,
bright flavors to help temper the rich-
ness of the meat.
Short ribs are full of collagen, which
converts to gelatin during cooking and
produces a tender texture. We went with
bone-in ribs to make sure they would-
n’t overcook before the collagen had
enough time to break down.
Even a carefully monitored grill
inevitably produces hot and cold
spots, and the spotty heat was causing
our short ribs to cook unevenly.
Starting the ribs in the more even-heat

environment of the oven was the opti-
mal solution. When the ribs reached
165 F, we moved them to the grill to

GRILL-ROASTED BEEF SHORT RIBS
Servings: 4-6
Start to finish: 2 hours
Meaty English-style short ribs are
preferred in this recipe to thinner-cut
flanken-style ribs. Make sure to
choose ribs that are 4 to 6 inches in
length and have at least 1 inch of meat
on top of the bone.
Spice Rub:
2 tablespoons kosher salt
1 tablespoon packed brown sugar
2 teaspoons pepper
2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 1/4 teaspoons paprika
3/4 teaspoon ground fennel
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Short ribS:
5 pounds bone-in English-style beef
short ribs, trimmed
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 recipe glaze (recipes follow)
For the spice rub Combine all ingre-
dients in bowl. Measure out 1 tea-
spoon rub and set aside for glaze.
For the short ribs Adjust oven rack
to middle position and heat oven to
300 F. Pat ribs dry. Sprinkle ribs with
spice rub, pressing into all sides of
ribs. Arrange ribs bone side down in
13 by 9-inch baking dish, placing
thicker ribs around perimeter of bak-
ing dish and thinner ribs in center.
Sprinkle vinegar evenly over ribs.
Cover baking dish tightly with alu-
minum foil. Cook until thickest ribs
register 165 F to 170 F, 1 1/2 to 2
hours.
• For a charcoal grill: Open bottom
vent halfway. Arrange 2 quarts unlit
charcoal briquettes into steeply
banked pile against side of grill. Light
large chimney starter half filled with
charcoal briquettes (3 quarts). When
top coals are partially covered with
ash, pour on top of unlit charcoal to
cover one-third of grill with coals
steeply banked against side of grill.

Make delicious Boston baked
beans slowly — very slowly
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
The deep flavor and creamy texture of Boston baked
beans is the product of simple, yet judiciously chosen
ingredients and slow — very slow — cooking. It seemed a
natural recipe to adapt to the slow cooker and, given our
location, we were under pressure to get this recipe just
right.
We wanted our slow-cooker “baked” beans to have all
the flavor and texture of the real deal and began by deter-
mining the correct ratio of water to beans. Once we had
evenly tender beans throughout we focused on building
flavor with traditional ingredients — salt pork, onion,
molasses, brown sugar and bay leaves went into the slow
cooker.
The flavor was decent but not deep enough and the tex-
ture of the salt pork was not appealing. We decided it was
necessary to pull out a skillet to render the fat from the
salt pork and soften the onion first, which made the salt
pork palatable and greatly intensified the flavors of the
dish.
To brighten things up at the end of cooking, spicy mus-
tard and a splash of cider vinegar went in, along with a
touch more molasses to round out the acidity. Don’t use
dark or blackstrap molasses, which will become bitter
tasting in the slow cooker. Be sure to let the beans sit and
finish thickening for 10 minutes before serving.
BOSTON BAKED BEANS
Servings: 6
Start to finish: 8 to 9 hours on high
Slow cooker size: 4 to 7 quarts
1 onion, chopped fine
6 ounces salt pork, rind removed, cut into 1/2-inch
pieces
Salt and pepper
6 cups water, plus extra as needed
1 pound dried navy beans (2 1/2 cups), picked over and
rinsed
1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon molasses
1/4 cup packed dark brown sugar
2 bay leaves
1 tablespoon soy sauce
4 teaspoons cider vinegar
2 teaspoons dry mustard
Microwave onion, salt pork, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in
bowl, stirring occasionally, until onion is softened, about
5 minutes; transfer to slow cooker. Stir in water, beans, 2
tablespoons molasses, 2 tablespoons sugar, and bay
leaves. Cover and cook until beans are tender, 8 to 9 hours
on high.
Discard bay leaves. Drain beans, reserving 3/4 cup
cooking liquid. Return beans to now-empty slow cooker.
Stir in reserved cooking liquid, soy sauce, vinegar, mus-
tard, remaining 3 tablespoon molasses, and remaining 2
tablespoons sugar. Cover and cook on high until beans are
thickened slightly, about 10 minutes. Season with salt
and pepper to taste. Serve.

Southwestern black bean and corn salad
By Katie Workman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
This is one of those salads that just saves
the day over and over again.
Here are the reasons I love this salad: It’s
fast, it’s really easy, it’s inexpensive, it’s
crowd-pleasing, it’s vegetarian, it’s sub-
stantial, it’s colorful, it’s protein-filled,
it’s a meal in itself, it looks great on a buf-
fet, it’s super portable, it’s season-less, it’s
make-ahead, it’s flexible, it can be doubled
or tripled (or halved, but that’s not so much
the point of this big-batch salad).
I could keep going, but if you’re not con-
vinced by now, I think you probably aren’t
going to be.

prompted, his vision suddenly becomes
hyper-clear and he meticulously pre-plans
every step in taking down a room of thugs,
often without a gun. He’s like Monk
crossed with Sherlock Holmes.
In the first film, a hooker with a heart of
gold pulls McCall out of retirement when
she is badly beaten by her pimp. By the
end, McCall has blown up most of
Boston’s waterfront, exposed a nest of cor-
rupt local cops and systematically executed
every member of a Russian gang, even
going to Moscow to finish the job.
The second film takes place sometime
later, with McCall now a Lyft driver, selec-
tively helping people he encounters. He’s

drug dealing and toward art school. Few
people could pull off this cheesy sainthood
like Washington, oozing charisma and
self-assured masculinity.
When a group of smarmy, cocky Wall
Street types abuse an intern during a coke-
fueled party, Washington drives her to the
hospital and then returns to wreak
vengeance, slicing one dude with his own
luxury credit card and then taunting his
bleeding victims with “I expect a five-star
rating.” It takes him a scant 29 seconds to
destroy the room full of rich snobs; he

The film somewhat confusingly toggles

McCall’s murky past is murdered in

government apples. The film thus strays
far from its roots as a vehicle for McCall to

himself in the crime scene like an episode

little over the top if we’re being honest.
Fuqua is a lyrical director who directed
Washington to an Oscar in “Training Day.”
He’s not afraid to spend time in the still

small moody elements, like rain hitting the

sequence in which McCall fights off a pas-

obvious relish. (It’s only somewhat marred

1 cup crumbled feta cheese

In a large bowl, combine the beans, corn,

Sprinkle the scallions and/or the feta over

If you want to serve it right away, gently
mix in the avocado. If you have time, this

refrigerate it, and then just add the avocado

While he said that particular proj-

phase, some residents expressed con-
cerns about the eyesore and its prox-
imity to homes and anticipate a
growing backlash.
“It’s perhaps unfortunate where it
landed, but we exhausted our
options,” said Lin Guan, an engineer
with SamTrans. “We don’t expect it to
be a popular decision by any means.
With a project of this size, there are
going to be tough decisions and this
was certainly one of them, but it’s the
best answer we can come up with at
this point.”
Parks said they had to relocate the
paralleling station to its new home
so it wouldn’t affect the Broadway
grade separation project, adding that
the station will be mostly unmanned
and make “minimal noise.” And Guan
said it couldn’t be located east of the
tracks because there would be insuffi-
cient access there for construction
and maintenance.
The new location was decided on
about a month ago and the station
will be set back from the curb as far as

Covered California customers who

But the higher prices will be felt by
the more than 1 million Californians

“Because they’re gong to be newer

an opportunity to standardize the

Israeli parliament passes contentious Jewish nation bill
By Ilan Ben Zion
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
JERUSALEM — Israel’s parliament
approved a controversial piece of legisla-
tion on Thursday that defines the country as
the nation-state of the Jewish people but
which critics warn sidelines minorities.
The government says the bill, passed in
the early morning hours, will merely
enshrine into law Israel’s existing charac-
ter. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu
called its passage a “historic moment in the
history of Zionism and the history of the
state of Israel.”
“Israel is the nation state of the Jewish
people, which honors the individual rights
of all its citizens,” he said. “I repeat this is
our state. The Jewish state.”
“Lately, there are people who are trying to
destabilize this and therefore destabilize the
foundations of our existence and our
rights,” he added. “So today we have made a
law in stone. This is our country. This is our
language. This is our anthem and this is our
flag. Long live the state of Israel.”
Israel’s 1948 declaration of independence
defined its nature as a Jewish and democratic
state, a delicate balance the country has
grappled to maintain for 70 years.
Opponents of the new bill say it margin-
WORLD Friday • July 20, 2018 31
alizes the country’s Arab minority of around
20 percent and also downgrades Arabic lan-
guage from official to “special” standing.
The law passed with a 62-55 backing,
with two members of the Knesset abstain-
ing. The legislation, defined as a “basic
law,” granting it quasi-constitutional sta-
tus, will likely face a challenge at the
Supreme Court.
Lawmakers took turns to passionately
express their views in a rowdy, hours-long
debate in parliament overnight.
Ayman Odeh, the head of the Arab Joint
List, pulled out a black flag and waved it dur-
ing his speech, warning of the implications
of the law.
“This is an evil law,” he told lawmakers,
adding that “a black flag hovers over it.”
“Today, I will have to tell my children,
along with all the children of Palestinian
Arab towns ... that the state has declared
that it does not want us here,” Odeh said in a
statement later. “It has passed a law of
Jewish supremacy and told us that we will REUTERS
always be second-class citizens.” Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu attends a joint statment with Hungarian Prime
Benny Begin, son of former Israeli Prime Minister Viktor Orban (not seen) at the prime minister’s office in Jerusalem.
Minister Menachem Begin, the founder of
Netanyahu’s ruling Likud party, abstained
from voting, warning of the party’s grow-
ing disconnect from human rights.
“This is not a decision I expected from the
Likud leadership,” he said.
