Millbrae officials focus on tidying downtown


Councilman: Tighter regulations needed to keep streets clean
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Millbrae officials hopeful a clean


commercial district will be good for
downtown businesses approved tightening regulations on littering to
assure streets stay sanitary.
The Millbrae City Council passed an
amended city ordinance beefing up the
grounds for code enforcement officers
citing those who are caught dumping
trash downtown.
The councils action Tuesday, Oct.
25, simplified the existing prohibi-

tions on littering and granted city officials greater flexibility to establish


new rules and restrictions supplementing the current code.
Councilman Wayne Lee said he
believed the most recent decision was
indicative of officials commitment to
making downtown more vibrant.
It is one of the smaller steps that
needs to be done to show that were are
serious about improving our downtown, he said.
But for the amended ordinance to
make a significant difference, Lee said
a collaborative effort by merchants

and property owners is also required.


The issue wont improve until
property owners take responsibility
for their property, said Lee. Until
then, nothing is going to be solved.
Lee and fellow councilmembers are
in the process of rallying support to
establish a business improvement district, which he believes would build
community and collaboration among
Millbraes downtown restaurateurs,
shop owners, landlords and more.

South San Francisco teachers


dissatisfied with their salary are
frustrated with school district officials and fear the quality of education offered to students will falter
as colleagues seek jobs elsewhere.
Teachers turned out to a local
community town hall meeting and
expressed their discontent to the
South San Francisco Unified
School District Board of Trustees,
according to an audio recording of

the meeting Thursday, Oct. 20.


The money offered by the district is insufficient, said teachers
who claim many talented educators
are taking jobs in better paying
local districts in an effort to afford
the skyrocketing cost of living
locally.
I love this district, I dont want
to leave, but I have to do what is

Proposition 55 aims to tax wealthy for schools

Caada College receives


millions in federal support

By Justin Pritchard

By Austin Walsh

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LOS ANGELES California is a


state that both mints millionaires
and relies heavily on taxing them
to fund its education and provide
basic state government services.
Both of those Californias feature in Proposition 55, which asks
voters to extend higher income
tax rates they passed four years
ago on the wealthiest residents for
another 12 years. Most of the

money would fund public schools,


though the Medi-Cal insurance
program for the poor also would
benefit, as would the states financial emergency fund.
The propositions supporters,
unions that are far better funded
and organized than the opposition, say letting the increased
rates of up to 3 percent lapse is the
equivalent of cutting school funding by several billion dollars each
year.
Opponents argue that the state

cannot continue soaking its richest residents lest they move


away and that the real proposition should be a politically
unpalatable revamp of a tax code
in tatters.
If the arguments sound familiar,
they should.
In 2012, as the state reeled from
the lingering effects of the Great
Recession, voters increased
income taxes on residents who

A GOP convention that seems strangely familiar

Monday Oct. 31, 2016

Police reports
Tool time
A stolen box trailer was left and multiple tools worth approximately $950
were taken from inside near Laurel
Avenue and Ludeman Lane in Millbrae
before 6:45 a.m. Wednesday, Oct. 26.

BURLINGAME

he Cow Palace is in the midst of its


Diamond anniversary, celebrating a
75-year span in which the cavernous
Daly City landmark hosted just about every
kind of event imaginable, including a contentious Republican National Convention
dominated by conservatives. Sound familiar?
Built in 1941 just months before the
Japanese attacked the United States, the
Cow Palace gave jobs to thousands of workers who used concrete and steel to fashion a
building that resembles an airplane hangar
or, better yet, a huge barn.
The 6-acre site is best known as the home
of the annual Grand National Livestock
Expo, Horse Show and Rodeo, but its rich
history is varied and colorful. The Cow
Palace has hosted concerts by The Beatles
and Rolling Stones as well as sporting
events that included the Golden State
Warriors first NBA championship in 1975.
Its other offerings list the Golden Gate
Kennel Club Dog Show and the Ringling
Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus.
The greatest show, however, had to be the
1964 GOP convention where U.S. Sen.
Barry Goldwater of Arizona won the presidential nomination over rivals New York
governor Nelson Rockefeller and William
Scranton, governor of Pennsylvania. The
raucous gathering was the second
Republican presidential convention held at
the Cow Palace. In 1956, the party renominated President Dwight D. Eisenhower and
Vice President Richard Nixon, a ticket that
won handily over the Democrats Adlai
Stevenson and Estes Kefauver.
Goldwater voted against the Civil Rights
Act of 1964, a decision that was sure to draw
the ire of more liberal elements. It did. An
estimated 35,000 anti-Goldwater protesters
marched from the Ferry Building in San
Francisco to that citys Civic Center. Each
day there were demonstrations at the Cow
Palace, but, surprisingly, there were no
arrests made during the July event.
The restraint shown by law enforcement
drew the praise of both the Congress of
Racial Equality, which spearheaded the
protests, and the San Mateo County Board

Long waits in early voting


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LOS ANGELES Some voters


in Los Angeles County waited
more than two hours to cast their
ballots in long lines at weekend
early voting centers, an election
official said Sunday.
During peak times on Saturday,
people waited more than two hours
for their turn to vote at centers in
North Hollywood and Culver City,
said Mike Sanchez, a spokesman
for the Los Angeles County
Registrar-Recorder.
More than 3,200 people cast

their ballots Saturday at five such


centers across the county and nearly 2,000 had done so by early
Sunday afternoon, he said.
Were working as hard and as
quickly as we can to get people in
and out, Sanchez said. People
are eager to get their voices
heard.
Officials dont expect long lines
on Nov. 8 as voting is spread out
throughout the countys precincts.
There are more than 5 million
registered voters in Los Angeles
County.
It was the first time that the

county offered expanded early voting at these weekend centers.


Some reasons for the waits were
that poll workers had to pull different ballots for voters from different parts of the county and the
overall length of the ballot in
California, Sanchez said.
In neighboring Orange County,
people were waiting outside early
voting centers before they opened
on Saturday.
On Sunday, there was a steady
stream of voters at the sites but
wait times averaged about 10 minutes at midday, he said.

Bay Area city announced Sunday
that it is firing three more police

Officials previously said they
were seeking to fire one officer.

Clinton expected to cruise in California


So who will vote?
By Michael R. Blood
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LOS ANGELES Republicans


and Democrats in California are
struggling to keep voters motivated in advance of Election Day,
but for different reasons.
Donald Trump was a longshot
from the start in the strongly
Democratic state, which hasnt
backed a GOP candidate for the
White House since George H.W.
Bush in 1988. Despite boasting
he could win California, nonpartisan polling suggests Trump could
be headed for a historically poor
showing that could drag down
other endangered Republicans.
Hillary Clinton, meanwhile, is
fighting a growing sense of
inevitability that could dampen
turnout, while trying to sway
undecided voters who may see her
as uninspiring. Or worse.
Wavering voters could be chilled,
or Republicans energized, by the
disclosure last week that the FBI
will investigate whether there is
classified information in newly
discovered emails that appear to
be related to the agencys probe of
Clintons email practices.
Democrats are looking to lure
millions of newly registered,
younger
voters,
especially
Hispanics, who now outnumber
whites in California.
But that youthful bloc comes
with risk, said Democratic pollster Ben Tulchin, who worked for
Bernie Sanders in the Democratic
presidential primary. Those voters

often dont end


up casting ballots and, when
they do, many
ignore downticket races.
They are the
hardest vote,
all the way
down the bal- Hillary Clinton
lot, Tulchin
said.
An estimated 14 million people
will vote in California, more than
half by mail. Democrats are looking for an overwhelming victory
in their strongholds in coastal
areas and big cities, while
Republicans are desperate to just
hold their ground in places like
the Central Valley and Inland
Empire.
Polling released last week by
the nonpartisan Public Policy
Institute of California found
Clinton crushing Trump in the
state by 26 points, with the billionaire businessman favored by
just 28 percent of voters. That figure, should it hold on Election
Day, would represent the lowest
percentage of the vote for a
Republican presidential candidate
in California in a century.
In
the
1936
election,
Republican Alf Landon was
trounced by President Franklin D.
Roosevelt, winning just 32 percent of the vote. George H.W.
Bush, in a three-way race with Bill
Clinton and Ross Perot in 1992,
still managed 33 percent.
Trump, who has threatened to
deport millions of people who
entered the U.S. illegally and is

facing fallout from a 2005 video


in which he brags about groping
women, has mostly ignored
California and is focusing his
efforts in Florida, Ohio and other
battlegrounds.
With the retirement of U.S. Sen.
Barbara Boxer, Californias has
its first open Senate seat in nearly
a quarter-century, but Republicans
dont have a candidate to back.
The two on the ballot are
Democrats Attorney General
Kamala Harris and U. S. Rep.
Loretta Sanchez.

Stay home
Republicans fear that discouraged party members will stay
home, undercutting the chances
for their congressional and legislative candidates.
Trump will drive Hispanic
turnout, but not in the way he will
hope for, said Michael Schroeder,
a former state Republican Party
chair who helped lead Texas Sen.
Ted Cruzs primary campaign in
the state. A lot of Hispanics will
come to the polls just to make a
point of voting against him, and
while they are at it will probably
vote against our down-ticket
Republicans.
U. S. Reps. Darrell Issa and
Steve Knight are among a handful
of Republicans in tough fights,
while the party is hoping to keep
Democrats from gaining twothirds majorities in the state
Senate and Assembly that would
give them a free hand on tax
increases and other policies.
Vote-by-mail ballots turned in
through
last
week
show

Republicans accounting for 31


percent of the total, with
Democrats at 47 percent, according to nonpartisan research firm
Political Data Inc. Independents,
who typically vote more like
Democrats in California, make up
the rest.
Those numbers are running
behind the GOP tally in the 2012
presidential election, when Mitt
Romney eventually pulled in 37
percent of the vote in a 23-point
loss to President Barack Obama.
The GOPs last serious effort to
carry California in a presidential
campaign was in 2000, when
George W. Bush and Republicans
spent more than $15 million in
the state and lost to then-Vice
President Al Gore by 12 points.
Republican registration has been
withering in California for years,
and its dipped below 27 percent.
Tony Krvaric, who heads the
Republican Party in San Diego
County that is home to over 3 million people, said Trumps campaign has been largely invisible
there. He said it does not have a
local office, and he is unaware of
any volunteer deployments in his
area.
Sadly, the Trump campaign has
not provided any yard signs, doorhangers, bumper stickers, phones
or financial support to our county,
so we have had to raise money
locally to even just get Trump
door-hangers, he said in an
email.
In September, a Trump campaign email outlined plans to ship
California volunteer strike
teams to battleground Nevada, a

practice followed in earlier presidential campaigns.


Republican activists who supported Cruz are volunteering in
competitive congressional and
legislative races, hoping to avert
a blowout that has implications
for control of Congress and the
Legislature.
Meantime, the Clinton campaign appears to be taking nothing for granted. Her website provides a glimpse of the campaigns
activity, with scores of phone
banks calling voters across the
state.

Infavorable
She has long faced an enthusiasm gap, which was obvious in
the primary when Sanders frequently packed rallies with adoring young voters. Clintons
events tended to be subdued by
comparison, and polls have long
showed many Americans view her
unfavorably, as with Trump.
Clinton has a victory in
California in sight, but Democrats
are worried about sustaining voter
interest down a long, complicated
ballot that also includes proposals to legalize pot and end the
death penalty.
A strong Democratic turnout
would favor such proposals as
extending an income tax on the
wealthy, taxing tobacco and freeing marijuana users to light up.
If Clinton drives a strong
turnout that means progressive
ballot measures ... have a better
chance of passing, Tulchin said.
Can we maximize the vote as far
down the ticket as possible?

Money pours in for anti-pipeline protest, but will it last?


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CANNON BALL, N.D. The crowdsourcing goal was modest: $5,000, enough to
help a few dozen people camping in North
Dakota to protest the nearby construction
of the four-state Dakota Access oil pipeline.
The fund has since topped a staggering $1
million.
The fund is among several cash streams
that have provided at least $3 million to
help with legal costs, food and other supplies to those opposing the nearly 1,200mile pipeline. It may also give protesters
the ability to prolong their months-long
encampments that have attracted thousands
of supporters, as the Standing Rock Sioux
Tribe pursues the fight in court.

And as the number of protest-related


arrests increased this week, so did contributions the funds raked in more than
$200, 000 between Thursday and Friday
alone.
But demonstrators are quick to note that
the amount of money raised and what they
have left isnt the same.
It still feels unreal sometimes because it
is such an astronomical figure to me, said
Ho Waste Wakiya Wicasa, the protester who
set up the GoFundMe account that has raised
more than $1 million mostly for operating
expenses at the camp, which took root in
April.
The money goes as quickly as it comes,
but without it having been as much as it is,
we certainly wouldnt have been able to be

States to weigh tougher gun control


By Ryan J. Foley
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

The last time voters in Maine


were asked about gun rights, they
easily passed a constitutional
amendment creating a right to own
firearms that shall never be questioned.
Three decades later, the state
known for its hunting tradition
will vote on whether to tighten
restrictions on gun sales and
transfers.
Maine is one of four states,
along with California, Nevada and
Washington, where voters will
decide Nov. 8 whether to enact
tougher firearms laws. In a change
from past elections, there are no
statewide initiatives seeking to
expand gun rights anywhere in the
U.S.
The presence of so many ballot
questions in the same year reflects
the strategy, growing power and
deep pockets of gun-control sup-

porters, who are outspending


opponents in all four states. They
hope passage of the proposals
shows widening support for more
measures designed to keep
firearms away from dangerous
people.
In Maine and Nevada, a group
founded by former New York City
Mayor Michael Bloomberg has
spent millions advocating for
background checks on nearly all
gun
sales
and
transfers.
Supporters want to close gaps in
the federal system that allow ineligible felons, domestic abusers
and the mentally ill to buy
firearms from private sellers at
gun shows and online without a
background check.
I do call it a movement. People
are really getting fed up with all
the
violence,
said
Judi
Richardson, 57, of South
Portland, Maine, who gathered
signatures to help place the initiative on the ballot.

Her 25-year-old daughter,


Darien, was fatally shot in 2010
during a home invasion that
remains unsolved. The investigation hit a dead-end because the
handgun used to kill her was
bought without a background
check from a seller who told
police he did not know the buyers
name. Richardson said the Maine
initiative would help reduce gun
violence by making firearms harder to access and easier to trace.
In Washington state, advocates
who successfully campaigned for a
background check law in 2014 are
now seeking passage of a measure
that would allow judges to issue
orders temporarily seizing guns
from people who are deemed a
threat. For instance, concerned
families could seek the removal of
guns from relatives threatening to
harm themselves or others.
Californias Democratic lieutenant governor, Gavin Newsom,
is leading the campaign for a first-

of-its-kind law
that
would
require anyone
buying ammunition to pass a
b a c k g r o un d
check
and
obtain a state
permit.
Gun - s a f e t y Gavin Newsom
groups say a
Democratic sweep that includes a
White House victory and party
gains in Congress would put pressure on federal lawmakers to
strengthen the national background-check system.
Congress has blocked attempts
to create universal background
checks, even after the fatal shooting of 20 elementary school students in Newtown, Connecticut,
in December 2012. That prompted
groups such as Bloombergs
Everytown for Gun Safety to focus
on a state-by-state strategy often
compared to the strategy used to

spread gay marriage.


The history of gun-related ballot
initiatives shows how the tide of
public opinion may be turning.
During the last 40 years, states
have approved 15 out of 18 ballot
initiatives to expand gun rights
and six of nine to restrict them,
according to Ballotpedia, which
tracks the initiatives.
Supporters organized the initiatives in Maine and Nevada after
the states Republican governors
in 2013 vetoed background check
bills approved by their legislatures.
Everytown is the largest spender
in those states, assembling coalitions that include concerned parents, families of gun violence victims and law enforcement officials. The movement has also
been financed by entrepreneurs
such as Nicolas Hanauer of Seattle,
who has donated more than $1

Pot-legalization movement seeks foothold in Northeast


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BOSTON Having proven they


can win in the West, advocates for
recreational marijuana hope the
Nov. 8 election brings their first
significant electoral victories in
the densely populated Northeast,
where voters in Massachusetts and
Maine will consider making pot
legal for all adults.
Supporters believe yes votes
in New England would add geographical diversity to the legalization map, encourage other East
Coast states to move in the same
direction and perhaps build
momentum toward ending federal
prohibitions on the drug.
We have to get to a point where
we can win legalization voter initiatives in other parts of the coun-

try, said Keith Stroup, founder of


the National Organization for the
Reform of Marijuana Laws, or
NORML, a leading group in the
legalization movement.
Three other states California,
Arizona and Nevada are also
voting on recreational pot. If the
California initiative passes, marijuana will be legal along the entire
West Coast. Washington, Oregon,
Colorado and Alaska have already
voted to permit it. The District of
Columbia also passed a legalization measure in 2014, but it has
no regulatory framework for retail
sales and possession remains illegal on federal property.
Several Eastern states are among
the 25 that already allow some
form of medicinal marijuana, but
none in the region has approved

recreational pot.
Big money is at stake, which
helps explain why marijuana supporters have raised more than $6
million in Massachusetts and
about $1. 3 million in Maine,
most from outside those states.
Analysts from Cowen and Co.
issued a report last month forecasting a $50 billion legal
cannabis market in the U.S. by
2026, a nearly tenfold increase
over today. But such growth would
be predicated on federal legalization. Passage of the November
state referendums would be a key
catalyst toward that end, analysts
wrote.
Higher marijuana usage in the
West may help explain why the
region has been a more fertile
ground for legalization, said Matt

Simon, New England director for


the Marijuana Policy Project,
another major pro-legalization
group.
More people have direct experience with marijuana or know
someone who has, and that leads
to it being demystified, Simon
said.
Recent polls on the New
England ballot questions, which
propose significantly lower tax
rates than those in Colorado and
Washington, indicate the yes
sides trending ahead in both
states. Still, passage is far from
guaranteed.
In Massachusetts, a socially liberal state, voters previously
decriminalized small amounts of
marijuana and approved it for
medicinal use. This years initia-

tive has met formidable opposition from politicians, business


leaders, clergy and even billionaire casino magnate Sheldon
Adelson, who recently donated $1
million to opposing groups.
The states popular Republican
Gov. Charlie Baker and Bostons
Democratic Mayor Marty Walsh
are among many elected officials
fighting the idea. Their arguments
include concerns that edible pot
products resembling candy or
other treats could fall into the
hands of children, and that marijuana can be a gateway to far
more dangerous drugs.
The availability of marijuana
for adolescent users already constitutes an environmental factor

Weiner rocks race for president with sexting scandal


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK Once a hardcharging young congressman,


Anthony Weiner lost his career
and his marriage to a habit of trading sexually explicit messages
that he couldnt shake a lurid
tale of personal self-destruction
thats suddenly found its way into
the race for president.
Weiner is separated from Huma
Abedin, the vice chairwoman of
Hillary Clintons campaign and
one of the Democratic nominees
closest aides. Its the federal
investigation into his sexting
habits that is the unrelated case
that led the FBI to a new batch of
emails, which agency director
James Comey told Congress on
Friday may be pertinent to our
investigation into Clintons use
of a private email server as secretary of state.
And that has once again cast a
spotlight on Weiner, one-time rising Democratic Party star whose
very name has become a punchline.
Weiner was forced to resign his
seat in Congress in 2011, after
accidentally posting a picture of
himself in his underwear a private message intended for a
woman who was not his wife to
his Twitter account.
Abedin stood by him, and he had
the audacity to ask for the voters
forgiveness and run for mayor two
years later. He spent time atop the

polls,
until
fresh evidence
emerged that he
hadnt given up
his
sexting
habit
and
destroyed his
campaign.
When Weiner
was
caught
Anthony
again
sending
Weiner
racy messages
last summer, Abedin left him.
Federal investigators started a
probe in September into whether
he had sexted with a 15-year-old
girl.
I am filled with regret and
heartbroken for those I have hurt,
Weiner said after he and Abedin
separated, lamenting what he
called his terrible judgment.
The former congressman did not
respond to repeated requests for
comment Saturday, as the impact
of his sexting extended far beyond
his household.

Clinton lashes out


Clinton, who has referred to
Abedin as a second daughter,
lashed out Saturday at the FBIs
handling of a new email review
that arrived as unexpectedly as did
the revelation that Weiner was
involved.
The development led to a chorus
of Democratic leaders decrying the
bureaus actions, which came with
a little less than two weeks
remaining before Election Day.

Clinton called it unprecedented


and deeply troubling, and her
campaign
chairman,
John
Podesta, said there was no indication this is even about Hillary.
The brash, liberal, ambitious
and media-savvy Weiner spent
seven terms in the House, building
a profile as a Democrat who
fights an amateur hockey player always ready for a face-off with
Republicans.
Some critics saw him as heavy
on self-promotion and light on
legislative accomplishments. But
liberal supporters cheered his
willingness to confront the GOP
on such issues as public radio
funding, Planned Parenthood,
health benefits for 9/11 first
responders and President Barack
Obamas health care plan.

Drinking game
Wise-cracking and scrappy,
Weiner once suggested C-SPAN
viewers start a drinking game in
which theyd down a shot for
every Republican misstatement
during a debate on the health care
plan please assign a designated driver, he quipped.
As Twitter became popular, he
proved a natural at delivering
provocations, 140 characters at a
time. And then it proved to be his
undoing.
In May 2011, a photo of a mans
bulging underpants appeared on
Weiners Twitter account. By then
married and expecting a baby with

Abedin, Weiner initially claimed


his Twitter account had been
hacked.
But after more racy messages
and photos emerged, Weiner
acknowledged engaging in inappropriate exchanges with several
women. He said he was getting
treatment and resigned at a chaotic
news conference, compete with
hecklers shouting such comments
as, Bye-bye, pervert!
Weiner, however, wasnt out of
the public eye for long.
In 2013, he belatedly jumped
into the race for mayor of the
nations biggest city, a prize hed
eyed since a strong primary run in
2005. I think that its up to New
Yorkers to decide whether I get a
second chance or not, and I hope
the answers yes, he told the
Associated Press.
While some voters were aghast,
Weiner topped polls of the primary field for several weeks until a
woman went public with smutty
messages and photos she said the
candidate had sent to her, using
the alias Carlos Danger.
He acknowledged hed found new
sexting partners after his resignation from Congress, saying hed
since stopped. But his mayoral bid
disintegrated
into
angry
exchanges with voters and ended
with a middle-finger farewell to
reporters after he lost the
Democratic primary.
Still, Weiner didnt entirely
leave the public stage. Over time,

Supreme Court to rule in transgender case


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON The Supreme


Court will take up transgender rights
for the first time in the case of a
Virginia school board that wants to
prevent a transgender teenager from
using the boys bathroom at his high
school.
The justices said Friday they will hear
the appeal from the Gloucester County
school board sometime next year. The
high courts order means that student
Gavin Grimm will not be able to use the
boys bathroom in the meantime.
The court could use the case to resolve
similar disputes across the country, said
Shannon Minter, legal director of the

National Center for Lesbian Rights.


Obviously, for transgender people, the
stakes of this case are incredibly high.
Whatever the court rules in Grimm may
ensure that transgender people are accepted and included as equal members of our
society, or it may relegate them to outsiders for decades to come, Minter said.
A lower court had ordered the school
board to accommodate Grimm, but the
justices in August put that order on
hold while they considered whether to
hear the appeal.
Grimm, a 17-year-old high school
senior, was born female but identifies
as male. He was allowed to use the
boys restroom at his high school for
several weeks in 2014. But after some

parents complained, the school board


adopted a policy requiring students to
use either the restroom that corresponds with their biological gender or
a private, single-stall restroom.
Grimm is backed by the Obama administration in his argument that the policy violates Title IX, a federal law that
bars sex discrimination in schools.
I never thought that my restroom
use would ever turn into any kind of
national debate, Grimm said. The
only thing I ever asked for was the
right to be treated like everyone else.
While Im disappointed that I will
have to spend my final school year
being singled out and treated differently from every other guy.

Powerful quake shakes Italy


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NORCIA, Italy Another powerful earthquake shook Italy on


Sunday, sending panicked people
running into piazzas, raining
boulders onto highways and toppling a Benedictine cathedral and
other historic edifices that had
withstood several recent quakes.
There were no immediate reports
of deaths.
With a preliminary magnitude of
6.6, it was the strongest earthquake to strike the country in nearly 36 years. People throughout the
mountainous region northeast of
Rome were still on edge after a
pair of jolts last week and an
August quake that killed nearly
300.
That there were no reports of
fatalities was largely due to the
fact that thousands had left their
homes for shelters and hotels after
the earlier temblors, and that large

swaths of inhabited areas had been


closed for safety reasons.
Despite the new collapses, the
head of the civil protection
agency, Fabrizio Curcio, said
there was no indication that anyone was missing or buried under
rubble. Earlier, three people were
extracted
from
rubble
in
Tolentino.
These earthquakes are bringing
all of central Italy to its knees,
Tolentino
Mayor
Giuseppe
Pezzanesi said.
Premier Matteo Renzi pledged
that wrecked homes, churches and
businesses would rise again, saying they were part of Italys
national identity. The government
last week earmarked 40 million
euros for rebuilding.
We will rebuild everything,
Renzi said. We are dealing with
marvelous territories, territories
of beauty.
Residents already rattled by a

constant trembling of the earth


rushed into the streets after being
roused from bed by the 7:40 a.m.
quake. It was felt as far north as
Salzburg, Austria, and all the way
down the Italian peninsula to the
Puglia region, the heel of the
boot.
It is since 1980 that we have
had to deal with an earthquake of
this magnitude, Curcio said,
referring to a 6.9-magnitude quake
near Naples that killed some
3,000 people in November 1980.
Some 20 people suffered minor
injuries. Authorities responded
with helicopters to help the
injured and monitor collapses, as
many roads were blocked by landslides.
Some 3,600 people had already
been relocated, many to the coast,
following last weeks quake, and
Curcio said more would follow.
People who stayed behind were
mostly sleeping in campers or

other vehicles, out of harms way.


Closest to the epicenter was the
ancient city of Norcia, famed for
its Benedictine monastery and for
the birthplace of St. Benedict, the
father of Western monasticism.
Witnesses said the 14th century
St. Benedict Cathedral collapsed
in the quake, with only the facade
still standing.
Its as if the whole city fell
down, Norcia City Assessor
Giuseppina Perla told the ANSA
news agency. The citys ancient
walls sustained damage, as did
another famous Norcia church, St.
Mary Argentea, known for its
15th century frescoes.
Television images showed nuns
rushing into the main piazza as
the bell tower appeared on the
verge of collapse. Later, nuns and
monks knelt in prayer in the main
piazza. A firefighter appealed to a
priest to help keep residents calm
in an effort to prevent them from

looking for loved ones.


The towns deputy mayor,
Pierluigi Altavilla, said his house
remained standing, but everything
inside had been toppled.
It seemed like a bomb exploded
inside the house, he told Sky
TG24.
The quake came during a long
holiday weekend in Italy ahead of
Tuesdays All Saints Day, when
Catholics remember the dead. The
head of the church in Umbria,
Cardinal Gualtiero Bassetti, urged
priests not to hold Masses inside
churches but in open spaces for
fear of further collapses, ANSA
reported.
Mayors in some towns, including Castelsantangelo sul Nera,
said coffins had been pushed out of
their resting place inside cemeteries, which in Italy are typically
walled structures.
The scene is indescribable,
Mayor Mauro Falcucci said.

Iraqs Shiite militias join Mosul push


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

IRBIL, Iraq Thousands of fighters


flocked to join Iraqs state-sanctioned, Iranbacked Shiite militias on Sunday, advancing to cut off Islamic State extremists holed
up near Mosul in northern Iraq while
bombers killed at least 17 people in Shiite
neighborhoods of Baghdad.
Militia spokesmen said that some 5,000
fighters had joined their push to encircle
from the west the countrys second-largest
city of Mosul, the IS militants last bastion
in Iraq, which is linked by road to territory
it holds in Syria.
Karim al-Nuri of the militias umbrella

group, known as the Popular Mobilization


Units, and Jaafar al-Husseini, a spokesman
for unit member the Hezbollah Brigades,
said that a total of some 15,000 Shiite
fighters were now participating in the battle.
The Iraqi military confirmed the figures,
which, including army units, militarized
police, special forces and Kurdish fighters
would bring the total number of anti-IS
forces in the offensive to over 40,000.
The two-week-old offensive to drive IS
from Mosul had been long-anticipated,
since the Sunni extremists stormed into the
city in 2014 and drove out a much larger
Iraqi force.

Letters to the editor


Time to say yes on I for Belmont
Editor,
For decades leading up to 2013, the
Belmont City Council was controlled by
folks who said no quite a bit. They said
no to a downtown, no to reasonable
home additions and remodels, no to
Oracle (bye, tax revenue), no to youth
sports (remember the plan to raze the
sports complex?) and, devastatingly, no
to properly maintaining our aging infrastructure.
From 2003 to 2013, Belmonts Road
Pavement Condition Index (PCI) dropped
from 64 to 55. During the same period,
thoughtful leaders in San Mateo raised its
PCI from 58 to 73. Menlo Park went from
61 to 76 and Burlingame from 68 to 75.
The County average PCI rose from 64 to
70. (See vitalsigns.mtc.ca.gov/streetpavement-condition) Roads with a PCI of
70 cost $2 to $4 per square foot to maintain. Roads with a PCI of 50 cost $20 per
square foot to repair, and cost even more
below a PCI of 50.Many of Belmonts
roads are already below 50.
For years, prior councils kicked the can
down the (rather bumpy) road. Im sure
they were doing what they thought was
best, but the consequences have been dire.
Im proud to serve on a council that has
made it a priority to address our infrastructure crisis head on. Measure I is the culmination of two years of stakeholder outreach, education and community input. The
new council has changed the culture of
no.
Join your councilmembers, the
Metropolitan Transportation Commission,
the San Mateo County Economic
Development Association, state Sen. Jerry
Hill, Assemblyman Kevin Mullin, supervisors Warren Slocum, Don Horsley and Dave
Pine, your friends and neighbors in saying
yes on Measure I.

No on Measure K
Editor,
County ofcials would have us believe
that somehow the extension of the
Measure A half-cent sales tax passed in
2012will be used to improve the quality of
life in San Mateo County and would be
spent on police, re, emergency, and services, among others. They are lately claiming the revenue will be used to help fund
our current hot-button issue: affordable
housing.
In keeping the state law, this local sales
tax revenue will go to the general fund as
sales tax measures cannot be earmarked for
specic projects. Conservatives should
reject this out of hand because its an additional tax that will hurt local retailers and
business owners, large and small. Liberals
should reject this out of hand because sales
tax measures are a disproportionate burden

on those least able to afford it. Progressive


voters know that the Measure A decit was
created by the $60 million approval on the
new jail and everybody should reject this
out of hand based on the dishonesty.
The county budget is over $2 billion and
the fact that the poor are being stripped
away of nickels and dimes for problems
created by rich, out-of-town investors and
developers is further evidence that we live
in an oligarchy rather than a democracy.

Yes on Measure K
Editor,
Passage of Measure K will provide the
stability necessary to build upon the
progress we have made to strengthen our
communities and address the critical challenges facing San Mateo County to remain
a place where all residents can live and
thrive.
San Mateo County is a great place to live
and we enjoy a high standard of living. In
2012, voters approved local funding to
make investments to protect critical county services that have dramatically
improved our quality of life, particularly
for our most vulnerable populations. I am
voting yes on Measure K to extend this
local funding for an additional 20 years.
Here at Peninsula Family Service, this
funding has improved the quality of early
learning for children from low income families, helping ensure that a childs zip code
does not determine their future. It has also
supported the Fair Oaks Adult Activity
Center where aging adults can maintain
health and social connections.
Measure K can protect our most vulnerable populations by providing affordable
housing for seniors, veterans, people with
disabilities and working families. Measure
K funding can also continue to ght human
trafcking and sexual exploitation of children and expand preschool opportunities
to more families.
With Measure K, we can continue vital
county services and address new challenges
facing the Peninsula, all without raising
taxes by a single penny. By mail or on
Nov. 8, vote yes on K.

Measure K extends essential services


and ensures fiscal accountability
Editor,
In 2012, an overwhelming majority (65
percent) of San Mateo County voters
approved Measure A, a signicant investment in our quality of life. The subsequent
sales tax revenue received as a result of
Measure A allowed the county to preserve
and enhance critical programs and services
and launch innovative new initiatives like
the Big Lift, a $15 million county investment in childhood literacy.
Our sales tax contributions also funded a
variety of essential services including a
new public safety dispatch center, farmworker housing, summer reading programs, paratransit rides and library and
park renovations. Measure A included strict
scal accountability provisions to ensure
that all funds were spent as promised.
Measure K simply extends the term of
this critical revenue source to continue the
good work and programs that support our
quality of life. Measure K includes the same
scal accountability measures as Measure
A, giving San Mateo County residents
local control over local funds for local
needs.
An independent oversight committee and
annual audits will continue to ensure all
Measure K funds are accounted for. Finally,
by law, Measure K funds cannot be taken or
redirected by the state.
We need the services that Measure K revenues will provide, and we need its stringent accounting safeguards. Im condent
Measure K is a smart choice for San Mateo
County.
Vote yes on K, a scally responsible
solution to promote affordability and protect quality of life in San Mateo County
without increasing taxes.

demand. The only way this can happen is


to have more land development, such as
constructing taller buildings and making it
easier to add mother-in-law units on single-family lots. As a result, trafc will
increase on our already overcrowded roads.
Parking will be like that in San Francisco.
So much for maintaining our quality of
life. Measure K props up property values
and will keep rental costs high. This is
good deal for investors but it is at the
expense of low-income families.
The San Mateo County Comprehensive
Financial Annual Report (CAFR), ending

Electric-car maker Tesla


plans to sell solar roof tiles
By Dee-Ann Durbin
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Further broadening its reach


beyond electric cars, Tesla Motors
says its going to sell solar roof
tiles that are customizable and
meant to look like a traditional
roof. The energy-generating tiles
would be a joint product with
SolarCity, although the two companies have yet to complete a proposed merger.
The glass tiles, which come in
four styles (for example, Tuscan
Glass Tile), contain photovoltaic
cells that Tesla says are invisible
from the street. Theyre meant to
power a home when integrated
with Teslas Powerwall, energy
storage units for homes that are
mounted on the wall or kept on the

ground. The new version of


Powerwall costs $5,500 but there
was no price announced for the
tiles at an unveiling Friday night .
Tesla Chairman and CEO Elon
Musk reasons that many of the
people who want to drive electric
vehicles have an inherent interest
in setting up cleaner energy systems in their homes and offices.
He has estimated that one-fourth
of Tesla owners currently have
solar energy panels.
The whole purpose of Tesla is
to accelerate the advent of sustainable energy, Musk said at the
event. He said the future he wants
consists of the solar roof, energy
storage and electric cars. Its an
obvious three-part solution.
In June, Tesla proposed buying
SolarCity, the largest home solar-

panel installer in the U.S., in an


all-stock deal worth around $2.45
billion. Shareholders are expected
to vote on the deal on Nov. 17.
The merger is controversial.
Musk is also chairman of
SolarCity, which is run by his
cousins. Neither company has
achieved sustained profitability,
and both are operating in markets
where demand is uncertain. Plugin electric vehicles make up less
than 1 percent of U.S. sales, and
less than 1 percent of U.S. electricity generation comes from
solar power, according to government data.
Earlier this month, Goldman
Sachs downgraded Palo Alto,
California-based Teslas shares
from buy to neutral and lowered its price target, saying the

potential merger could delay the


release of Teslas next vehicle, the
Model 3.
The $35,000 car, which is critical for Tesla if it wants to become
a mass-market car maker, is due
out at the end of next year.
Some shareholders have even
sued, claiming that the merger is
an attempt by Musk to use one
company to bail out another.
Musk owns 26.5 percent of Tesla
and 22 percent of SolarCity.
But Musk has called the deal a
no brainer. He says SolarCitys
installation network and Teslas
global stores could provide customers with a one-stop shop for
sustainable energy and transportation. If the deal goes through, San
Mateo,
California-based
SolarCity will adopt Teslas name

and sell its solar panels alongside


Teslas power-storing batteries,
which it has been marketing to
homes and businesses since last
year.
Earlier this week, during a conference call to discuss Teslas
third-quarter earnings, Musk said
hes confident SolarCity would be
cash-neutral or even a cash contributor in the fourth quarter if the
companies merge.
Tesla reported a $22 million
profit in the third quarter; it was
the companys first quarterly profit in three years. SolarCity lost
$250 million in the second quarter. It reports third-quarter earnings in November. Tesla is scheduled to provide additional financial details about the merger on
Nov. 1.

Small-time Airbnb hosts say NY law unfairly targets them


By Deepti Hajela
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK Jordan Reeves


works for a nonprofit and his partner is a puppeteer. They say
theres not a lot of spare income
floating around their Brooklyn
apartment. Thats why they sometimes rent the place through
Airbnb for extra cash when theyre
not there.
But a new law that carries fines
of up to $7,500 for certain kinds
of short-term listings is causing
headaches for many Airbnb hosts,
including Reeves, who say they
are getting unfairly swept up in a
measure thats more aimed at commercial operators who turn multiple apartments into, essentially,
illegal hotels.
Nobody wants illegal hotels ...
It seems as though were in the
same bucket as the people who are

taking advantage of the situation, Reeves said, as he and a


group of other hosts gathered
across the street from Gov. Andrew
Cuomos office last week to
protest the law.
Signed by Cuomo, a Democrat,
on Oct. 21, the law is one of the
toughest in the country against
Airbnb and other home-sharing
platforms. It levies hefty fines
against owners or tenants who
offer to let others rent out their
entire living space for less than
30 days, something thats been
illegal in New York for several
years but didnt previously carry
such penalties.
Under the new law, people can
still rent out portions of their living spaces, like a single bedroom
or a couch, for less than 30 days. It
also doesnt apply to some
dwellings, like single-family
homes or row houses.

Airbnb protested the law, saying New York was rewarding the
hotel industry at the expense of
New Yorkers, and has filed a lawsuit against it.
Supporters of the law said it was
necessary, that some property
owners take apartments that could
be homes for city residents out of
circulation to make them shortterm visitor rentals, hurting both
the citys hotels and its housing
market.
State Attorney General Eric
Schneidermans office conducted
an investigation of Airbnb rentals
from 2010 to 2014.
It found that 72 percent of the
units listed in New York City were
illegal, and that 36 percent of
rentals came from commercial
operators who made up only 6 percent of hosts.
Eileen Guo, a Queens resident
who has used Airbnb to rent out

her studio apartment, said that


while the industry needed to be
regulated, there needs to be a distinction, people that live in our
homes and also use it for side
income and people who are doing
it purely for profit. She said the
law would limit her already occasional use of the platform, to
times when she knew she would be
able to offer it for more than 30
days.
Jenny Douglas went the other
way changing the wording on
her listing to make it clear of anyone looking that her Brooklyn
apartment, on the garden level of
her single-family home, wasnt
covered by the law and available
for short stays.
Oh my gosh, I was a little panicked, she said, before she did
some digging and realized the law
didnt apply to her. But she was
concerned potential renters, hear-

Cal i f o rn i a, a San

announced that Kev i n
Cho y will join the residential
development
team as assistant develKevin Choy
opment project manager.
Kevin will work primarily on The Plaza in

ing about the law, would be reluctant to look at New York City listings, so she made the change.
I wouldnt want them to feel
anxious that they might come here
and the door might be padlocked,
she said.
While Douglas said she hoped
the law Cuomo signed wouldnt be
the last word on the subject, she
did think it was an issue that needs
to be figured out. It feels like this
probably needed to happen in
order for us to look at what were
dealing with.
Michaela Hall, who used Airbnb
to find a last-minute place to stay
when she came to New York City
last month, said she was concerned about the impact of the law
on prices. She prefers to rent out
entire apartments with the residents gone, as opposed to sharing
a portion of a home with the tenant there.

CSM takes control of first place in Bay 6
By Terry Bernal

While the College of San Mateo


Bulldogs were battered and
bruised, they were not beaten
against reigning state champion
City College of San Francisco in
arguably the most important Bay
6 Conference matchup of the season to date.
Sophomore running back Keenan
Smith broke a 36-yard touchdown
run with 4:01 remaining in regulation to give the Bulldogs the lead,
and freshman linebacker Colt
Doughty capped an exceptional
performance totaling a game-

No. 6-ranked
CCSFs final

Heights Stadium.
It was do or die for us, CSM
sophomore Joey Wood said. We

its whos going to win out and
make a run at conference.

With the win, CSM (3-0 Bay 6,


5-3 overall) takes over sole possession of first place in the Bay 6
Conference with two games to
play. The Bulldogs travel to No. 7
Santa Rosa Junior College next
week in a battle for outright command of the division standings.

Cubs win Game 5 for


Wrigley to stay alive
By Ronald Blum
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CHICAGO Theyve waited


108 years for a championship. So
with this World Series on the
verge of slipping away, the
Chicago Cubs could not wait any
longer.
Manager Joe Maddon summoned
closer Aroldis Chapman from the
bullpen in the seventh inning for
the first eight-out save of his big
league career, needing to hold off
the Cleveland Indians in Game 5.
As nervous fans fretted at
Wrigley Field, Chapman fired his
100 mph heat and preserved the
Cubs 3-2 win Sunday night, cutting Clevelands lead to 3-2.
The Cubs won a Series game at
Wrigley for the first time since
Game 6 in 1945.
High anxiety, first baseman
Anthony Rizzo said. A lot of deep
breaths. Every pitch gets bigger
and bigger as the game goes on.

Menlo School boys water polo


coach Jack Bowen believes sophomore Sam Untrecht will one day
be one of the schools all-time
greats.
And yet, Untrecht was held
scoreless against Menlo-Atherton
in the Peninsula Athletic League
tournament championship match
Saturday.
It tells me M-A was prepared,
Bowen said. Do not let that guy
(Untrecht) score.

No matter because the Knights


exemplify the concept of team.
With the Bears making a conscious decision to shut down
Untrecht, the rest of his teammates picked up the slack as the
Knights ran away with a 10-4 win
to claim the PAL title, their 20th
in 22 years.
That was one of our best
games, Bowen said. This is a
team. What has been amazing is,
its a team of very good players
and they understand what it means
to be a team.
They proved they are not just a

one-man gang. Niko Bhatia led


Menlo with four goals. Jayden
Kunwar and Scott Little added two
goals apiece, while Ben Wagner
and Miller Geschke each scored
once. Add in another stellar performance from goaltender Tiago
Bonchristiano, who finished with
16 stops including several from
point-blank range and it added
up to a dominating win over the
rival Bears.
[The win] shows were really
well rounded, said Bhatia. It
shows how much trust we have in

With the win, the Bears (5-0 PAL Bay, 72 overall) closed out an undefeated record in

Hillsdale (1-3, 4-5) falls to fifth place.

Buccaneers on Sunday.
That builds confidence, Del Rio added of

yards passing and four
touchdowns, and well continue to grow as
a football team.
The Raiders (6-2) improved to 5-0 on the
road for the first time since 1977. But
whats more surprising is they did it by
overcoming a NFL-record 23 penalties for
200 yards.
Sebastian Janikowski missed a 50-yard
field goal that would have won it on the
final play of regulation, then misfired from
52 yards for the potential lead in OT.
They tried to give us the game two
missed field goals and all those penalties,
Tampa Bay tackle Demar Dotson said. We
didnt take it.
Carr broke the Raiders 52-year-old record
for yards passing in a game, joining Y.A.
Tittle and Ben Roethlisberger as the only
players in league history to throw for 500plus yards, four or more touchdowns and no
interceptions.
The third-year pro said he got so emotional that he nearly broke into tears when he
learned he replaced Cotton Davidson (427
yards, 1964) in the record book.

Thats our motto this

that workload,
Fuenzalida said.
Against Burlingame,
however, the Dons
who gave up 48 points
the previous week in a
loss to rst-place MenloEnzo
Atherton were more
Guenzalida
concerned with
Tongamoa and Grant
anchoring the defensive

They took one for the
team because they know
we desperately needed
defense, Aragon head
coach Steve Sell said.
Thus the reliance on
James Kilcullen the 5-10, 175-pound
sophomore Lautaimi to
carry the ball a staggering 33 times.
Paul is one of my
favorite running backs to
watch, Fuenzalida said.
He looks like hes 160
pounds soaking wet but
the way he runs and the
Ian Tapueluela way he cuts is amazing.
We use him as much as
we can because hes a good athlete,
Tapueluelu said. Hes got speed, hes got

strength and he has a willingness to run


through holes.
While Lautaimi scored the rst and the last
of Aragons four touchdowns on the day, the
crowning achievement came at the end of the
rst half on a play-action give to Tongamoa.
The senior carried eight times for 74 yards,
with 34 of them coming on the statue-of-liberty option to stun Burlingame going into
halftime.
With the Dons leading 14-0, they turned
the ball over on downs at the Burlingame
26-yard line after a fourth-down Campos
pass was broken up by Panthers defensive
back Savaun Brown. Burlingame took over
possession with 1:07 remaining in the half.
But two plays later, the Pathers fumbled it

to the statue-of-liberty play right out of the
gate.
Weve been pushing for [Sell] to run that
play for a long time and he nally did,
Fuenzalida said. It was awesome that it
worked.
The deception of the offensive line was
key to selling the fake pass while Tongamoa
darted through a left-side hole. And perhaps
the brilliance of that deception was that
Kilcullen actually thought it was a pass play.
Our line really sold out on that it was a

Rejiggering the run offense was a must

the graduation of 6-4 quarterback Tanner

Durant leads Warriors past pesky Suns


By Bob Baum
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

PHOENIX The Warriors with Kevin


Durant are still an early season work in
progress, as evidenced by a close call
against the Suns in Phoenix.
Durant scored 37 points, Stephen Curry
added 28 and the Warriors held off the pesky
Suns 106-100 on Sunday.
We are not clicking and everybody can
see that, Golden State coach Steve Kerr
said. It will come but the main thing while
we are going through this process is to
continue to compete and try to pick up
wins.
The Warriors didnt seal the victory until
Currys two free throws with 12.9 seconds
to play. Durant added a pair of free throws
with seven seconds left to provide the final
margin.
Durant was 15 of 16 at the line.
I was just taking what the defense was
giving me, he said. If you play me
straight up, I like my chances. I try to get
there (the foul line) as much as possible.
My guys were setting great screens for me
and I was able to get downhill some.
T.J. Warren scored 26 points and Eric
Bledsoe had 21 for the winless Suns, who
took the Thunder into overtime in
Oklahoma City on Friday night. Tyson
Chandler grabbed 18 rebounds for Phoenix.
Game 3 with a young squad, have a
chance to beat OKC on the road, have a
chance to beat Golden State at home,
Phoenix coach Earl Watson said. I think
were right where we need to be.
Warren was coming off a career-high 30
points against the Thunder.
Unbelievable, Bledsoe said. I mean,

Warriors 106, Suns 100

Suns run
Phoenix scored 16 straight points in what
became a 22-2 run to lead 30-17 when Alex
Len sank a pair of free throws with 38.4 seconds left in the first quarter. Six Suns scored
in the run.

hes Tony Buckets. He does what his name
says, he gets buckets.
The Suns led by as many as 13 in the first
half. The Warriors finally took somewhat
shaky control midway through the final
quarter.
The game looked well in hand for the
reigning Western Conference champs when
Durant took a lob pass from Andre Iguodala,
dunked and was fouled. The three-point play

put the Warriors up 102-94 their biggest


lead of the day with 1:19 to play.
But Phoenix got consecutive driving
layups from Bledsoe, Warren and Jared
Dudley to cut it to 102-100 with 14.8 seconds remaining. The Suns had to foul Curry,
and arguably the best free throw shooter in
the game made them both to put away
Golden States second victory after a loss in
its home opener.

The Suns Devin Booker, playing despite a


toe injury, had a rough day on the court on his
20th birthday, but he did some serious damage
in the NBA as a teenager.
Booker scored 1,078 points in 78 games as
a teen. The only teens to score more are
LeBron James, Kobe Bryant, Carmello
Anthony, Durant and Dwight Howard. Booker
had six 30-point games as a teenager, one
fewer than Durant.
He missed six of his first seven shots
Sunday and wound up 3-for-12 for seven
points.
Devins tough, Watson said. If you
watch him, hes limping around a lot. He has
no excuses or anything. He goes out there and
plays.
Booker said that the toe injury restricted
him some but insisted it was not affecting his
shooting.
Ive cant make no excuses. Im just missing shots, Booker said. Im going to catch
my rhythm. ... Im kind of anxious on some
of my shots. Ive just got to let the game
come to me and Ill be fine.

Big-time stop

CSM

So, on fourth down, McCullers dropped


back looking to make something happen.
The versatile sophomore quarterback had
kept CSM off balance all day, completing 6of-18 passes for 90 yards with a touchdown
and two interceptions, but also rushing nine
times for 59 yards.
We stick to what we do and get used to
it, Doughty said. Thats what we do we
adapt.
As McCullers rolled out of the pocket
looking downfield, he attempted to get to
the edge looking to get the 2 yards himself.
But sophomore defensive end Hamilton
Too marked McCullers and stayed with him
on a tight parallel pursuit all the way to the
sideline. Then as McCullers tried to redirect
left, Doughty dashed in to sack him for a 3yard loss, forcing a turnover on downs and
sealing the win.
City is a big turning point in our season, Doughty said. We started slow
(going 2-3 in non-conference play). So to
do this, were getting better, were playing
well. And its starting to pay off.

Continued from page 11


Ryan Brand got drilled at the start of the second
quarter and left the game with an injury to his
non-throwing left shoulder. Then in the second
half, safety Josh Clarke and defensive tackle
Jelani Brown departed on consecutive plays.
CCSF (2-1, 5-3) dominated in nearly
every offensive category. The Rams outgained CSM 392-213 in total offense and
dominated in time of possession 34:59 to
25:01.
The defensive battle, though, was much to
the Bulldogs liking.
I love it, Doughty said. Being a defensive guy, I love it when were flying around
making plays.

Dogs win the day


Where the Bulldogs defense won the day
is in never letting CCSF get into the end
zone for a lead. The Rams tabbed two offensive scores, one to tie the game 7-7 in the
first quarter, and another to close a CSM lead
to 17-14 early in the fourth.
The defense did a great job, CSM head
coach Larry Owens said. They played their
butts off. But we practiced that way all week.
And they played well.
The play that saw CCSF take its first lead
of the day was a crazy forced fumble.
Two minutes into the fourth quarter, the
Bulldogs had totaled just three first downs
in the second half, with two of them coming
on the halfs first possession on which
CSM upped its lead to 17-7 on a 27-yard
field goal by Cesar Silva.
But CCSF started the fourth quarter by
marching 56 yards on eight plays to close
the lead to 17-14 on a 3-yard quarterback
keeper by Lavell McCullers.
Then on the first play of CSMs following
possession, the Rams seized the lead when
CCSF sophomore defensive end Tre Randle
ripped the ball away from Smith at the end
of a short sweep play and dashed 40 yards
for the touchdown for a 21-17 lead with
9:50 to go.
But Smith and the CSM offense saved the
best for last.

Up against it
Things were looking grim when the
Bulldogs went three and out on their following possession, including two sacks of

PATRICK NGUYEN

CSM running back Keenan Smith breaks loose for a game-winning 36-yard run Saturday.
CSM quarterback Bobby Calmeyn. But the
CSM defense bottled up Rams running back
Namane Modise to force a quick CCSF punt.
Modise rushed 29 times for 178 yards but
got held to two short gains before Daniel
Lavulo and Tukua Ahoia got in for a thirddown sack of McCullers deep in CCSF territory to force a punt.
Then the Bulldogs offense went on the
attack. Starting at their won 47, the
Bulldogs electrified the College Heights
crowd on the second play of the drive when
Calmeyn aired it out into traffic, with freshman receiver Line Latu making an incredible
diving catch for an apparent 43-yard pickup; but the play was called back for an illegal-man-downfield penalty.
Like our coach says, forget about the last
play and get on to the next, Smith said. It
was just a bump in the road. And weve had a
lot of bumps in the road this season.
On second-and-17, sophomore slot
receiver Ramiah Marshall bit off 9 yards on
an end around. Then on third down,
Calmeyn went back to air, looking down-

field and drawing a yellow flag for pass


interference, giving CSM a first down in
Rams territory at the 36-yard line.

Smith breaks loose


Then time stood still as CSM left tackle
George Moore opened a big hole and Smith
dashed through and beyond for a game-winning score.
Right when I saw that hole open, I just
hit it, Smith said. When I saw it, it was
like time stopped.
After I hit the block, I just felt [Smith]
off my right side, Moore said. It was like
a burst of wind flew past me.
CCSF got the ball back with 3:53 remaining and advanced for two quick first downs.
Modise opened with a 16-yard run. Then
McCullers hit sophomore receiver Easop
Winston for an 11-yard gain into Bulldogs
territory.
On first-and-10 from the CSM 45-yard
line, CCSF went back to Modise for a sweep
play that Maka covered to hold to a 5-yard
pickup. On second down, Maka met Modise
at the line of scrimmage to hold a draw play
to 1 yard. Then on third-and-4, Modise took
the ball off left tackle, but Doughty read it
well and stuffed the play 2 yards shy of the
first-down marker; Modise also departed
after the play with a knee injury.

Doughty a Los Gatos High School


graduate wasnt the only former Wildcat
to enjoy a clutch performance. Sophomore
fullback Joey Wood set the tone for the
Bulldogs emotional performance. CSMs
first possession of the day went three and
out, with a wobbly punt to follow. Wood,
though, turned in a superb special teams
effort by sprinting downfield and stick the
punt return for no gain.
I like to preach to my teammates no matter where you are, as long as youre on the
field, you can make a difference, Wood
said.
CSM got the ball back quickly and Wood
was rewarded for his effort. The Bulldogs
marched 53 yards on eight plays, with Wood
getting his team on the scoreboard with a 3yard draw play, the sophomores fourth
rushing TD of the year, tying for the team
lead with Brand and freshman running back
Rashaan Fontenette.
Calmeyn 10-of-14 passing for 110
yards added a 5-yard touchdown throw to
sophomore Tasi Teu, giving CSM a 14-7
lead with 28 seconds remaining in the first
half.
Smith was held to his second lowest rushing total of the year with 62 yards on 12 carries, while the Bulldogs totaled just 79
ground yards overall. Over half of Smiths
yards came on the 34-yard, game-winner.
Despite the stingy CCSF defense, Owens
said he was not surprised by Smiths heroics.
Weve got three big-play backs, Owens
said. Im not surprised about anything
those guys accomplish.

Johnson wins Martinsville to gain spot in NASCARs finale


By Jenna Fryer
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MARTINSVILLE, Va. There was a time


this summer when a seventh championship
seemed out of reach for Jimmie Johnson.
Hendrick Motorsports was struggling and
Johnson wasnt at the top of many lists to
contend for the title.
Then the Hendrick organization flipped a
switch, built better, faster cars, and
Johnson turned it up a notch. Now, that slot
in NASCARs record books is absolutely
within reach.
Johnson earned one of four spots in next
months title-deciding season finale Sunday
with his ninth career victory at Martinsville
Speedway . The six-time NASCAR champion will race for his seventh championship,
which would tie him for the record with Hall
of Famers Richard Petty and the late Dale
Earnhardt.
Ive been trying to ignore this conversation about seven, and now I cant, said
Johnson, who doesnt particularly want to
start thinking about the stakes just yet.

Chapman hadnt pitched in the seventh
inning since 2012. He threw 42 pitches, 15
of them at least 100 mph.
The lefty struck out four and fanned Jose
Ramirez, who had homered earlier, with 101
mph heat to end it.
With the crowd at the Friendly Confines
desperate for a win, Kris Bryant homered to
start a three-run burst in the fourth off
Trevor Bauer.
That gave Jon Lester a 3-1 lead. The
Indians nicked him for a run in the sixth,
and Carl Edwards Jr. took over to begin the
seventh with a 3-2 edge.
Chapman came in with a runner on second
and one out. He stranded the potential tying
run at second base in the seventh and at third
in the eighth, then pitched a 1-2-3 ninth.
Lester, the Game 1 loser, improved to 4-1
in Series play by allowing two runs and six
hits.
Ramirez homered in the second to put the
Indians ahead. Cleveland closed within a run
in the sixth when Rajai Davis singled, stole

Francisco Lindor.

think about it at all. But

inevitable.
Fortunately, I dont have

weeks. But were going
to enjoy this and savor
it. Were going to get our
ducks in a row for
Homestead.
Jimmie
The victory blocked
Johnson
Joe Gibbs Racing from
placing all four of Toyota drivers in the
final round of the Chase for the Sprint Cup
title . There are only three spots still open
in the Nov. 20 finale at Homestead-Miami
Speedway, and JGRs hope of sweeping the
final four ended Sunday.
Most likely to miss the final? Carl
Edwards, who had a tire problem and finished 36th at Martinsville lowest of the
eight Chase drivers. Also in trouble:
Stewart-Haas Racing teammates Kevin
Harvick and Kurt Busch, who finished 20th
and 22nd.
Brad Keselowski, eliminated from the
Chase last week , finished second and was

irritated by a lengthy caution earlier in the


race when NASCAR struggled to figure out
the running order. Had those laps not been
wasted under yellow, Keselowski absolutely
believed he could have beat Johnson.
We dont need to run 100 laps under yellow with the field, not trying to figure out
where theyre at, and it probably cost us the
race, Keselowski said.
The caution took 29 laps, and left some
grumbling the order still wasnt correct
when the race restarted.
I think the stakes are so high, I really
wish we would have red flagged the race,
gone, reviewed it and gotten it right, said
third-place finisher Denny Hamlin. Theres
a 100 percent chance it was not right at the
end. It changed the running order.
Hopefully, that doesnt change what
happens going into Homestead. I know that
NASCAR is doing everything they can with
the scoring they have and things like that.
But you have to get it right. It definitely was
not right.
JGR finished third, fourth and fifth as
Hamlin, Matt Kenseth and Kyle Busch are
inside the top-four as the series heads to

Texas Motor Speedway. But all was not well


in the Gibbs camp after the race.
Busch felt Hamlin finished the highest
by holding up Kenseth and Busch in the
waning laps. Although the teammates
worked well together on restarts, Busch felt
that Hamlin not getting out of the way
allowed Johnson to win and Keselowski to
finish second.
We work so good together that we just
gave the win to (Johnson). So, JGR all the
way, Busch said. At the end, you had the
slowest Gibbs car holding up the rest of the
line, and all we did was let somebody else
from another organization pass us and go up
there and chase down (Johnson).
Hamlin disputed Buschs view.
I may have held those guys up for a little
bit of that final run, but definitely dont
think I was holding anyone up at the end,
for sure, Hamlin said.
Jeff Gordon finished sixth in his final
scheduled race as the replacement driver for
Dale Earnhardt Jr. It is presumably the final
race of Gordons career. He retired last season, but was pressed into eight races when
Earnhardt suffered a concussion.

Mike Napoli singled against Edwards


leading off the seventh and took second on
a passed ball by rookie catcher Willson
Contreras, who had just replaced David
Ross.
Carlos Santana flied out, and Chapman
came in to strike out Ramirez with a 100
mph pitch. He hit Brandon Guyer on the left
leg and retired Roberto Perez on a groundout
as fans screamed in relief.
Then in the eighth, Davis singled with
one out on a hard grounder down the line
that Rizzo stopped with a dive Chapman
took a few seconds before heading to cover
first, leaving Rizzo with no one to throw
to. Davis stole second, and after Jason
Kipnis fouled out, swiped third standing up.
Lindor, Clevelands hottest hitter, took a
101 mph pitch at the knees for a called third
strike, then stood in the batters box for
nearly 20 seconds in anger and frustration.
Bauer, his pinkie seemingly healed from a
cut sustained while playing with a toy drone
during the AL Championship Series,
dropped to 0-2 in the Series, giving up three
runs and six hits in four innings.
After a pair of relatively balmy autumn
nights on the North Side, the temperature
dropped to 50 degrees at game time and a 10
mph win added chill. Maddon wore a ski hat
with a blue pompom rather than a baseball
cap.
Bryant, in a 1-for-15 slide, led off the
fourth with a drive into the left-field bleachers, where a fan in the first row dropped it.

Rizzo sent the next pitch off the ivy on


the right-field wall for a double, admiring
its flight before hustling, took third on Ben
Zobrists single and came home with the goahead run when Addison Russell reached out
and topped a pitch down the third-base line
for an infield single.
Jason Heyward took a called third strike,
slumping Javier Baez dropped a bunt down
the third-base line for a single that loaded
the bases and Ross, a 39-year-old making
perhaps his final big league start, hit a sacrifice fly for a 3-1 lead.

then gloved it. It was similar to Game 6 in


1980, when Philadelphia first baseman Pete
Rose grabbed Frank Whites foul pop after it
nicked off catcher Bob Boone.

Carbon copy
Ross allowed Santanas second-inning
foul pop to glance off his glove and Rizzo
batted the ball in the air with his bare hand,

Web gem
Cubs right fielder Heyward climbed the
brick wall in the right-field corner, then
reached back to catch Bauers wind-blown
foul fly.

Moving on
This was the last game with the bullpens
in foul territory at Wrigley, where new
bullpens under the bleachers are to open
next season. Zobrist had to climb the
mound to catch Kipnis seventh-inning fly.

It became apparent in the third period that
it was going to be Menlos day when Bhatia
scored a highlight-reel goal with his team
leading by two. M-A had just cut its deficit in
half, 4-2, when Nik Caryotakis took a pass
from Hugo McMillan and scored on a power
play with 5:31 to play in the third period.
A minute later, Menlo got the goal back.
After Menlo turned the ball over in the
offensive zone, an M-A player attempted a
backpass to goaltender Noah Smith. Bhatia,
who had not yet started swimming the other
way, intercepted the pass at its apex and
quickly flipped it past a stunned Smith to
give the Knights a 5-2 lead.
Bowen, however, could not appreciate it.
He admitted he didnt see the goal because he
turned away in disgust after he saw the ball
was turned over. Despite the best-case scenario, Bowen was unhappy with the
process.
That was one of the rare mistakes we

Bowen, however, was not surprised Bhatia

broke the seal on the scoreboard with just

half with a minute and a half left in the second quarter.
The Bears finally got on the scoreboard on
a McMillan strike, off an assist from Chris
Lobdell, with about 30 seconds left in the
opening half.
That late goal appeared to send the
momentum to the Bears, as Caryotakis goal
early in the third period got M-A back into
the game.
But then Bhatias surprise goal swung the
momentum back to the Knights, who would
go on to score four of the next five goals to
take a commanding 8-3 lead into the fourth
quarter. Wagner and Geschke scored the final
two goals for the Knights in the fourth period, while Caryotakis tallied one for the

Not so keen on Halloween

Ken WHITE

Bah Humbug may not be a perfect t for Halloween, but you get
the drift. All holidays create some
risks for our animals, and
Halloween is no exception.
The original concept of All
Hallows Eve was about remembering the dead, but today its for
ringing doorbells and gathering
enough sugar to produce screaming, sleepless children. This modern version means our dogs and
cats, who would otherwise be nodding beside us on the couch come

ers, a 12-year-best, and Saturday


nights Game Four was watched by
15.1 million.)
But the unexpectedly poor performance of Inferno was yet
another example of an anxious
trend in the movie business: More
of the same isnt working.
Poorly reviewed and coming
seven years after the last Robert
Langdon
thriller,
Inferno
arrived long after the Dan Brown
craze. Angels & Demons opened
with $46. 1 million in 2009.
Efforts to adapt the third book in
Browns series, The Lost
Symbol, were scuttled in favor of
Browns fourth installment,
Inferno.
Inferno joins the long list of
sequels that didnt measure up to
their predecessors this year and
in particular this summer when

evening, are dealing with an overused doorbell and elaborately


attired small strangers yelling
trick or treat!
First risk, then, is animals darting either out through that open
door (or even a window) or, terried, into the farthest corners of our
homes. Second risk, dogs (and
sometimes cats) attacking the
loud, excited goblins and princesses they dont recognize. Consider
physically separating your pet
from the door and all it invites; in
a multi-adult house, maybe one of
you is in the bedroom, door closed,

only three of the 14 sequels


released outperformed their
immediate predecessors at the
box
office,
said
Paul
Dergarabedian, senior media analyst for comScore.
Hanks has still notched the
falls
biggest
hit,
Clint
Eastwoods Sully. Its been an
especially star-studded season,
with Tom Cruise in Jack Reacher:
Never Go Back ($9.6 million in
its second week) and Ben Affleck
in The Accountant ($8.5 million
in its third week).
But Perrys long-running character has fared better than each, at
least in North America. The
Halloween-themed
Boo,
released by Lionsgate, has made
$52 million in 10 days, making it
Perrys biggest hit since 2009s

watching a horror movie.


In a curious example of our time,
last checked there were 83,014
items under pet costumes on
Amazon (Im not making that up).
Nothing wrong with dolling up the
doggy, but thats something you
and your pup want to work on
weeks in advance. Shoving a
dachshund into his new hot dog
costume may be fun for you, but
not likely for him. Introduce your
pet to her new drag slowly, and be
very cautious about doodads and
frills which can be ingested or
catch around a leg.

EMERGENCY DRILL

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY

GARLAND DAY

More than 180 Burlingame residents participated in the fourth annual Citywide Emergency Drill on Saturday, Oct. 22, and learned how
to help their neighbors following a major disaster. During the 90minute exercise, groups canvassed 10 neighborhoods, looking for
emergency "incidents" such as fires or gas leaks that were attached
to small flags on lawns. The drill was coordinated by the Burlingame
Neighborhood Network with support from the Central County Fire Department, the Burlingame Police Department, Burlingame CERTs and
local HAM radio operators.

Richard and Agnes Duarte celebrated their 70th wedding anniversary


with two parties in Redwood City and Belmont. Family came from California, Hawaii, Washington and Florida to celebrate this milestone, which
few couples reach, with them. They currently reside at Brookdale Woodside Assisted Living.

Volunteers Andrea Cohn (on ladder) and


Mary Ann Bierbrauer take a moment to
admire their work during Garland Day
at Filoli in Woodside. For more go to

about issues that would make downtown
vibrant, he said.
The proposed business improvement district has been on the table for more than one
year and Lee said is hopeful the initiative
will begin to gain momentum.
The merchants seem enthusiastic about
it, but unless you get them to sit down and
talk to each other, you wont get a cohesive
plan, he said.
There is no timeline to establish the business improvement district, said Lee, who
believes the additional investment is necessary to ensure they will remain committed
to cleaning up.
An ordinance will not social engineer
anyone. We need to have this, he said of
the business improvement district, which
would require an additional tax supported by
a majority of downtown merchants to

Backers led by Gov. Jerry Brown pushed
Proposition 30 as a temporary, necessary
way to reinvest in schools whose budgets
had been hammered.
The cash infusion has boosted schools,
raising more than $31 billion since 2012.
If approved in November, Proposition 55
would extend the higher income tax rates
through 2030, though in a nod to the states
stabilized finances it would not re-up sales
tax increases that Proposition 30 included.
The nonpartisan state Legislative Analysts
Office concluded that continuing the income

finance efforts such as cleaning streets, capital improvements, marketing and a variety
of other measures.
Beyond the amended ordinance and proposed business improvement district, the
city has been pursuing a variety of other
efforts to ensure downtown streets stay
clean.
Officials have approved installing new
trash cans with more storage capacity than
the previous models at street corners
throughout the core commercial district,
and have also handed out new waste bins and
cigarette receptacles to business owners
who wish to keep their storefronts clean.
Councilmembers themselves have been
active participants in the cleanliness effort
too, as officials hosted the Operation:
Clean Sweep initiative held earlier this year
to brush up downtown streets with brooms.
Code enforcement has also been a vital
component of the focus on cleanliness,
according to a city report showing more
downtown cleanup issues were addressed
recently than years prior.
A series of data sweeps were conducted to

locate hot spots of accumulated litter and


debris, visual blight, nuisances, health and
sanitation issues and building maintenance
conditions, according to the report.
Ongoing coordination between the
Community Development Department and
Public Works Department removed dozens
of unpermitted news racks and removed illegal dumping from the alleyways. The result
of this coordination confirmed that, by
percentage, more code enforcement cases
were close in the downtown than citywide
this year.
But such efforts are insufficient in
addressing the root of the issues, said Lee,
who added more collaboration is necessary
among merchants, residents and city officials to ensure downtown gets, and stays,
clean.
We have to show the city will invest if
they invest. We can raise money, get grant
money and create a unified theme for downtown, he said. But when you have hundreds of different business owners who
arent talking to each other, we cant agree
on anything.

A coalition backed by teachers unions


and hospitals is spending big to ensure that
Californians dont go back to the lower
tax rates.
Without maintaining these taxes, we
know were going to face cuts, said
Jennifer Wonnacott, a spokeswoman for the
Yes on 55 campaign. We are making
progress in our schools, but there is still a
lot of progress to go.
Polling conducted in mid-September by
the Public Policy Institute of California
showed that 54 percent of likely voters said
they would vote for Proposition 55.
As of late September, Yes on 55 reported
raising $49 million, according to campaign
finance reports . The California Hospitals
Association contributed $25 million and
the California Teachers Association $19
million.
Influential business associations and
wealthy Republican donors who fought the
tax in 2012 have kept their distance this

year, at least financially.


The only opposition was organized in
July by David Kersten, an independent
researcher tapped by state and local officials
for his fiscal expertise. Kersten, a former
lobbyist, said he decided to rally after realizing no one else was stepping up.
This moneys not being used well, based
on what I know about the union side of the
street, Kersten said. He doesnt want to
give the education bureaucracy blank
checks before teachers and administrators
show they can spend money more efficiently.
Other criticisms of Proposition 55
include that it would prolong Californias
over-reliance on capital gains taxes that the
wealthy pay as they get wealthier but do
not pay when the stock market slumps. The
top 1 percent of earners provide roughly
half of the states income tax revenue in
recent years, according to state statistics.
Proposition 55 would affect the top 1.5 per-

The citys police department said in a

Police say Beck was able to ride back to

cent of taxpayers.
A 2015 analysis by Forbes concluded
that, powered by Silicon Valley and
Hollywood, California alone has more billionaires than any country but the United
States and China.
One concern Proposition 55 opponents
float is that wealthy Californians will get
fed up and relocate, prompting a downward
spiral in state finances.
The argument that wealthy people leave
the state due to tax rates is a political argument. It doesnt have facts behind it, said
Chris Hoene, executive director the independent California Budget & Policy Center,
a left-of-center think tank.
He cited a 2016 study led by a Stanford
University professor which analyzed 45
million tax records to find out whether the
transitory millionaires theory was real.
That study concluded it was uncommon for
the wealthy to move due to taxes, and that a

RAISE
Continued from page 1
Trustees were unable to discuss the
matter publicly during the meeting
because contract negotiations are
underway, but district officials later
said they must balance the requests for
more money against an obligation to
maintain the districts economic
health.
While we understand our employees
desire for higher compensation, our
Board of Trustees must be fiscally prudent in keeping our district solvent,
district spokesman said Ryan Sebers
in an email.
Officials have shown a recent willingness to offer pay increases, said
Sebers, as administrators and the
teaching union agreed to a 10 percent
raise last year split evenly over two
years. Health benefit contributions
were increased by 33 percent as well.
But teacher Leslee Cottrell said the
pay offered is lower than surrounding
school districts which frequently
poach the best teachers from South
San Francisco, resulting in frequent
teacher turnover. She said the district

GRANT
Continued from page 1
Jamillah Moore praised the award as a
means of improving educational
opportunities for students who need
additional assistance.
This grant will provide Caada
College with funds to implement innovative tools to support our students in
achieving their STEM educational
goals, she said. The jobs of the
future depend on a STEM-educated
workforce and we look forward to helping to shape the next generation of
STEM students.
STEM is an acronym for science,
technology, engineering and mathematics and the curriculum has become
increasingly popular recently among
schools seeking to meet the needs of
students pursuing careers in the tech
sector.
The money will also build a program
making STEM careers and educational
paths more available to students who
may not have otherwise been interested in the fields, according to the
report.
The schools pitch for the money
addressed local fields of need such as

lost 75 teachers, due largely to the


affordability crisis or staff leaving for
more pay offered by another school
system.
We are important and the district
should value our importance, she
said.
The quality of education for local students is diminished as so many teachers pursue jobs elsewhere, said teacher
David Yanover.
It is ridiculous for you guys to be
sitting on a big pile of money when
teachers are fleeing, he said to the
trustees.
Officials have about $4.7 million in
undesignated reserves but Michael
Krause, assistant superintendent and
chief business executive, said trustees
should be wary about spending the
money set aside to offset the inequity
between revenue and expenditures.
Facing deficit spending in the coming years, Krause said reserves can be a
valuable asset to protecting the districts economic health.
Officials have recently cited declining student enrollment as a primary
source of financial concern, and plans
are underway to establish a budget
advisory committee to address future
economic issues.
Despite the reticence to spend down

the districts rainy day fund, Sebers


said officials are looking into all
opportunities to boost spending on
teachers.
To be fiscally responsible, our
board is examining our reserves and
identifying one-time expenditure
items such as textbooks, technology,
educational materials and facility
needs, he said.
Parents and students came to the
most recent meeting and also sided
with teachers seeking more pay.
We strongly support the teachers
and we love our teachers and we want to
see them paid a fair wage comparable
to other schools in the area, said district parent Lauren Kitchen.
Despite the variety of hurdles facing
the district, Sebers said officials recognize the calls from teachers as well
as the community and are interested in
working toward a collaborative solution.
We want our staff to feel valued and
therefore, we are committed to continuing to explore opportunities to value
and recognize our employees because
we know that there is a high cost of
living and there is demand for educational staff from districts in the Bay
Area, he said.

poor achievement in math, need for


more professional development
among teachers in STEM fields and a
lack of awareness regarding modern
and innovative educational and career
opportunities.
A portion of the funds, doled out
over the next five years, will pay
toward building relationships between
the Redwood City campus and other
four-year universities with an eye
toward establishing research opportunities for students and job training for
teachers.
The funds will be allocated through
the Generating Access to Navigate and
Achieve in STEM initiative recently
started at the school.
The federal organization offers more
than $90 million to colleges serving
Latinos across the nation, approximately $36 million of which will be
given to California schools.
The STEM grant marks the second
sizable award Caada College has
recently received from the U. S.
Department of Education, as it took in
$3.2 million to support the Expanding
Student Opportunity Adelante Project
as well.
The money is designed to improve
college transfer and completion rates
of Hispanic and other high-needs stu-

dents, according to a school report.


Collaborative initiatives and partnerships will be built between Caada
College and San Francisco State
University to help students transfer
and stay engaged in their pursuit of a
degree from a four-year university.
The money will finance establishing
support and peer mentorship programs
designed to prepare incoming students
academically as well and keep them on
the path toward success, even after
transferring to another campus.
Funds will also pay toward professional development opportunities for
teachers to establish a program available at both campuses supporting students who move from Caada College
to San Francisco State University.
We are committed to ensuring that all
our students start strong with their educational journey, get connected to pathways to transfer, stay strong on that
road to success and finish strong
through their transfer to four-year institutions, Moore said in a prepared statement receiving the Expanding Student
Opportunity Adelante Project grant.
The U.S. Department of Education
also granted the school $750, 000
recently through the Minority Science
and
Engineering
Improvement
Program.

ing. Your appearance may be in person

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.

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

The future of local news content is actually right here in


the present, as it has been for centuries The local community
newspaper. We ignore the naysayers and shun the "experts" when it
comes to the "demise" of the newspaper industry.

10/31/16

The leading local daily news resource for the SF Peninsula seeks an entreprenuerial
Advertising Account Exec to sell advertising and marketing solutions to local
businesses. We are looking for a special person to join our team for an immediate
opening.
You must be community-minded, action-oriented, customer-focused, and without fail,
a self starter. You will be responsible for sales and account management activities
associated with either a territory or vertical category.
You will be offering a wide variety of marketing solutions including print advertising,
inserts, graphic design, niche publications, online advertising, event marketing, social
media and whatever else we come up with if as the industry continues its evolution and
our paper continues its upward trajectory.
Experience with print advertising and online marketing a plus. But we will consider a
candidate with little or no sales experience as long as you have these traits:

million total to the Washington, Maine and
Nevada campaigns.
My guess is they will be successful, and
you will see voters in different geographies
and backgrounds who are willing to stand up
for stronger gun laws, said Zach Silk, a
Hanauer aide who is helping lead the
Washington campaign.

PROTEST
Continued from page 5
400 people have been arrested including
more than 140 on Thursday when officers
evicted protesters camping on private land
recently acquired by Energy Transfer
Partners.
But running a camp and readying it for
North Dakotas brutal winter isnt cheap.
The account Wicasa set up has only about
$100,000 left as of Friday night, according
to LaDonna Brave Bull Allard, a tribal historian and preservation employee. She provided family land for use in the original
camp, Sacred Stone, in April and still houses demonstrators.

NEWS

THE DAILY JOURNAL

nents dismissed the ad as a smear-and-fear


tactic.
There is a puritanical streak that runs
through New Englanders, said NORMLs
Stroup, a onetime Boston resident.
The Puritans lost their influence centuries
ago, and the phrase banned in Boston is
an anachronism. Yet uneasiness persists
when it comes to issues that would have
once
been
considered
sinful.
Massachusetts, for example, only recently
authorized casino gambling and did so in a
limited and highly regulated form.
In Maine, critics worry about disrupting

the states well-established medical marijuana program.


We want to make sure patients dont lose
access and that small growers will still be
able to flourish, said Catherine Lewis,
director of education for Medical Marijuana
Caregivers of Maine.
Portland, the states largest city, legalized possession of up to 2.5 ounces of marijuana in 2013, but the statewide prohibition still makes buying and selling the drug
illegal.
Marijuana companies that have focused
largely on Western states are watching

developments closely, sensing new regional opportunities for investment and growth.
The Northeast specifically is going to
be a very powerful market because of the
population density, said Derek Peterson,
chief executive of Terra Tech Corp., which
operates cannabis cultivation, production
and retail facilities.
Marc Harvill, client services and training
manager for Denver-based Medicine Man
Technologies, said the firm has already
fielded inquires for consulting services from
potential retail operators in New England
should the ballot questions pass.

If the Maine and Nevada initiatives pass,


half of Americans would live in the 20
states that require universal background
check laws on gun sales, Everytown
President John Feinblatt said.
Opponents say the measures will not stop
criminals and go too far by banning the routine sale and transfer of guns between lawabiding citizens, who would have to drive to
a firearms dealer and pay for a background
check that can cost $30.
Its a restriction on the freedom of the
good guys, said 75-year-old Charles
Rumsey III of Bangor, Maine, secretary of

the Penobscot County Conservation


Association, which is opposing the initiative in that state.
The retired Defense Department employee
recently borrowed a rifle from a longtime
acquaintance after his malfunctioned so he
could compete in a shooting event. He worries that such a transfer would be illegal
without a background check.
The Maine and Nevada initiatives would
require anyone buying or receiving a gun to
pass a background check at a federally
licensed dealer, with limited exceptions for
hunting and transfers of guns between fami-

ly members. Anyone who has a felony or


disqualifying domestic abuse conviction
would be denied, as required by federal law.
Rumsey said the possible effects are not
well understood and that questions are getting drowned out by the safety message of
supporters.
The National Rifle Association is financing opposition efforts in Nevada and Maine
but has spent far less than supporters. NRA
spokeswoman Jennifer Baker said the states
were carefully selected because they were
electorally advantageous for gun-control
supporters.

The money has been used for grocery


store trips every two days that cost about
$2, 000 each, 20 yurts purchased for
$160, 000, and around $7, 000 for bail
money. It has also paid for a storage area,
composting toilets, tiny houses, tepees, a
medical area and generators powered by
solar panels and wind.
A bookkeeper and an accountant now
keep track of the crowd-sourced money.
I got people to take care of, Brave Bull
Allard said. I got to provide homes for people and blankets, thermal wear, socks, hats
and gloves, and food. Right now, we are
feeding 670 people.
One online legal defense fund has raised
more than $655,000 for the legal defense
of warriors protecting land, water and
human rights.
Meanwhile, much of the money the tribe

is using for the legal fight is from at least


$1.3 million in direct donations, tribal
chairman Dave Archambault recently told
The Associated Press. He declined to say
how much tribal officials have spent so far,
saying that could give their opponents an
advantage in the legal case.
Energy Transfer Partners also has declined
to provide an estimate of its legal expenses.
The tribe is pursuing appeals after losing in
lower courts.
The Standing Rock Sioux didnt solicit
money, Archambault said, but asked other
tribes for letters of support or formal resolutions.
He said it was only after other tribes,
including the Red Lake Nation and the
Shakopee Mdewakanton Sioux Community
in Minnesota, inquired about financial contributions that leaders decided to accept

money for legal costs. And as the protests


continued, the tribe decided to also use part
of the money for waste-management services for protesters, he said.
I know the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe is
not alone; we have overwhelming support,
Archambault said, adding that his tribe
would in return help other tribes in their
fight against corporations.
Among the donors to online fundraisers
is southern New Hampshire resident Carol
DiPirro. She gave $30, motivated in part
because of a fight her community waged
against a natural gas pipeline.
They are saying the same thing: This is
our water supply. You run a pipeline through
it and it leaks, you are poisoning us. Thats
exactly what I spent two years of my life
saying, DiPirro said. This really, really
struck a chord with me.
