Property values hit record high
San Mateo Countys property assessment roll expands by $12.6 billion
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
Property values have hit a record high in
San Mateo County at $177. 5 billion,
County Assessor Mark Church announced
Thursday.
The countys property assessment roll
expanded by $12.6 billion over last year, a
7.64 percent increase.
Much of the extra property taxes generat-
ed from home values, about 45 percent, will
go toward school funding.
It is the fifth straight year the roll has
moved in a positive direction, Church wrote
in a statement.
The increase is fueled by a tripling of new
construction, high job growth and skyrocketing real estate prices, Church wrote.
As one of the strongest real estate markets in the state, San Mateo County has
experienced substantial increases in real
estate values throughout the county,
Church wrote.
The roll has expanded 26 percent since
2010.
Total assessed values increased in all 20
cities and unincorporated areas of the county.
The largest increase in assessed property
values was seen in Menlo Park at 11.36 per-
cent. Foster City is second at 9.84 percent;
Redwood City is third at 9.35 percent; San
Carlos is fourth at 9. 01 percent; and
Atherton ranks fifth at 8.97 percent.
The property assessment roll is the
assessed value of all properties as of Jan. 1
each year and reflects changes in ownership,

construction
and

electrification
Transit agency subject to California
environmental laws, will fight lawsuit
By Samantha Weigel
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Seeking support from a federal agency that could have
squashed a pending lawsuit, Caltrain was denied exemption
from state environmental laws governing its massive $1.5
billion electrification project.
Although it completed an environmental impact report,
Caltrain officials have long claimed their plans for electrification should be exempt from state laws requiring such
review and sought confirmation from the Surface
Transportation Board a federal agency that oversees
interstate commerce routes.
But the STB ruled Thursday that it did not have jurisdiction over the local agencys project as electrification is
specifically geared toward commuter service, not the freight
service that shares the Caltrain tracks.

Villas mother and stepfather filed a
lawsuit Wednesday against the university, school administrators and the fraternity, alleging negligence and hazing. The lawsuit, filed in Los Angeles
County Superior Court, seeks unspecified damages.
Were just looking for a little closure and justice, Villas mother, Betty
Serrato, told The Associated Press on
Wednesday. Theyve ruined a life and
broken a family.
The lawsuit alleges that fraternity
members forced pledges to go on the
dangerous hike without adequate supplies as a last ritual before they could
become full-fledged members. The lawsuit says the university had a duty to
oversee fraternity activities and should
have been aware of and stopped any
hazing that was happening.
The national fraternitys CEO, Mark
Timmes, declined to comment on the
lawsuit, except to reiterate that the
organization closed its chapter at the
school after Villas death.
Our thoughts and prayers remain
with Armandos family and all those
affected by his passing, Timmes said
in a statement.
The university declined to comment
on the litigation, but said in a statement that any claim that the school
was in any way responsible for the
tragic death of Armando Villa is
untrue.

BAY CITY NEWS SERVICE
Bay Area law enforcement agencies
have arrested the alleged leader and
three alleged co-conspirators of a
heroin distribution ring that sold the
drug in Sonoma County to people
addicted to prescription opiates, a
Santa Rosa police sergeant said.
The Santa Rosa police Department

about the heroin sales in Santa Rosa,
Guerneville and Sonoma County, Sgt.
Rich Celli said.
Over 10 months, detectives were
contacted by people who either had
been arrested for or were contacted
about possessing or being under the
influence of heroin, Celli said.
Gage Nichol Wynne, 22, of
Guerneville, was identified as the
alleged supplier of high-grade heroin
throughout Santa Rosa in late 2014
and 2015, Celli said.

The Fourth
comes alive
Parade, carnival, festival, fireworks
to fill the day in Redwood City
By Bill Silverfarb
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
When it comes to the Fourth of
July, Redwood City is the place to
be.
For decades, the county seat has
honored our nations independence with parades and fireworks
shows that have delighted thousands.
This year will be no exception.
The fun starts Saturday morning
with a pancake breakfast with
Redwood City firefighters at 7:30
a.m. with a 5K race to follow at
8:45 a.m.
The 77th Annual Fourth of July
Parade
by
the
Peninsula
Celebration Association kicks off
downtown at 10 a.m. and will feature about 200 floats, including
the Stanford Marching Band and
appearance by Miss California
Bree Morse, who will make her
first public appearance since
being crowned.
The fireworks extravaganza at
the Port of Redwood City starts at
9:30 p.m.
In between the parade and fireworks show, the annual Fourth of
July Carnival will be held in the
parking lot at Veterans Boulevard
and Winslow Street.
The 29th Annual Independence
Day Festival starts at 9 a.m. and
offers arts and crafts, food, beverages and activities for children
covering several city blocks.
At noon, Marshall Law Band
will perform at Courthouse Square
and later that night Livewire will
perform at 7 p.m. at the port leading up to the fireworks show
where food trucks will also be set
up.
The morning parade, with this
years theme being Our American
Heritage, The Fabulous 50s, is
being put on by the nonprofit
group Peninsula Celebration
Association, which started in
spirit in 1939.
Robert Anderson, past president
of the nonprofit, has been
involved in the parade for 40
years.
He helped build a float for the
bicentennial parade when he was 6
years old when his mother and
father participated.
His daughter Christina is the
third generation of Andersons to
volunteer.

Sanfilipo has been volunteering

It takes a small core of volunteers the entire year to plan the
parade with about 50 on hand the

Gov. Brown approves removing
lynching from California law
Lighting up the lagoon
Foster City hosts fireworks, all-day celebration

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Foster Citys all-day Fourth of July celebration will culminate with a spectacular
fireworks show officials hope will help
deter illegal behavior that could result in
fines of at least $1,000.
The Parks and Recreation Department is
pairing with the nonprofit Foster City
Lions Club to put on a range of festivities
kicking off with a pancake breakfast
before breaking into more family activities throughout the holiday.
Visitors can enjoy a pet parade, carnival
rides and live music throughout the day
before the fireworks begin at 9:30 p. m.
For nearly 50 years, the Lions Club has
helped organize the event with this years
celebration leading up to a thrilling fireworks show backdropped by the citys
lagoon, said Ray Rosenthal, chair of the
event.
Most of the communities have shut
down their fireworks event because of the
cost, but weve managed to stay doing it,
Rosenthal said. Were expecting at least
20,000 people to be coming out to celebrate with us. The weather is promising,
so its going to be a nice day with lots of
good music in the park.
The costly event is supported in part by
parking fees, a $5,000 donation from Gold
Medal Martial Arts and even volunteers
from the nonprofit Our Common Ground.
Councilman Herb Perez, owner of Gold
Medal Martial Arts, said the city has been
fortunate to continue on its unique fireworks show tradition.
We have one of the best views on the
Peninsula, we have one of the best amenities our lagoon, Perez said. A lot of
places dont have fireworks anymore, so
its a very small town day, but were doing
it in a very big town way.
The Lions Club is hosting an all-day barbecue intermingled with games, music and
bicycle decoration stations before the fireworks show.

SACRAMENTO California Gov. Jerry
Brown announced Thursday that he has
signed
legislation
removing
the word
lynching from the
states criminal code following the arrest of a
black activist at a Black
Lives Matter protest.
The Democratic governor signed the bill by
Jerry Brown Sen. Holly Mitchell
within days of receiving
it. He signed it without comment.
Mitchell, a Los Angeles Democrat, took
up the issue after 20-year-old Maile
Hampton was booked under a 1933 section
of the California penal code that applies the
word lynching to the crime of attempting
to seize someone from police custody.
The governors swift approval of my bill
speaks to its obvious truth, Mitchell said
in a statement. Its been said that strong
words should be reserved for strong concepts, and lynching has such a painful history for African Americans that the law
should only use it for what it is murder by
mob.
California lawmakers voted unanimously
to strike the word lynching from the
books last month, noting its racially
charged nature.
play will also help deter people from turning to illegal fireworks, which present an
imminent danger when paired with the
drought.
The police and fire departments of San
Mateo and Foster City are reminding celebrants all fireworks are illegal within city
limits and violators could face a minimum
$1,000 fine.
Every year we see that all fireworks are
a dangerous threat to our community and
more than ever during this drought, we
must do all that we can to preserve and protect our woodlands, our neighborhoods and
especially our children, San Mateo Police
Chief Susan Manheimer said in a press
release.
San Mateo is hosting a smaller celebratory gathering at Central Park near downtown that includes a family-friendly DJ and
games.

neighborhood at about 6:30 p. m. , San
Francisco police spokesman Sgt. Michael
Andraychak said.
Andraychak held a press conference
Thursday afternoon a few feet from the pier
where Steinle was shot.
Despite the homicide that occurred less
than 24 hours prior, tourists and joggers
once again populated the pier area Thursday.
Police have arrested a suspect, identified
as Francisco Sanchez, in connection with
the homicide. Andraychak said Sanchez is
45 or 46 years old and on probation out of
Texas, but he declined to say what part of
Texas Sanchez is from or what brought him
to San Francisco.
California delays plan to
replace statue of soon-to-be saint
SACRAMENTO A California lawmaker
announced Thursday that he is delaying a
plan to replace a statue of the missionary
Rev. Junipero Serra with a statue of astronaut Sally Ride in the U.S. Capitol, succumbing to criticism from Roman Catholics
ahead of Pope Francis planned visit to the
United States in September.
Sen. Ricardo Lara, D-Bell Gardens,
announced he would postpone his efforts
until after the popes visit, when he plans to
make the 18th century missionary a saint.
The California Catholic Conference welcomed his decision after pushing for a delay
until after the canonization.

Sanders raises $15 million
after launching presidential bid
WASHINGTON Sen. Bernie Sanders presidential campaign said Thursday the Vermont Democrat has raised $15
million since joining the race in late
April, a strong total for his challenge
against front-runner Hillary Rodham
Clinton.
About 250, 000 donors have given
money, giving the senator a solid foundation from which to build an insurgent
campaign against Clinton and establishment Democrats.
Sanders has drawn large crowds, includBernie Sanders ing about 10, 000 in Madison,
Wisconsin, on Wednesday night, and the
fundraising amount will bolster his attempt to become a
liberal alternative to Clinton.
But Sanders trails by a wide margin in fundraising, with
Clintons campaign saying it has taken in $45 million
since mid-April.
I am more than aware that my opponents will be able to
outspend us, Sanders said in Wisconsin. They may have
the money but we have the people. And when the people
stand together, we can win.

Fewer residents admitted
to University of California
By Lisa Leff
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO
Fewer
California high school students have
been offered admission to University of
California campuses for the fall, officials reported Thursday, while the number accepted from outside the state and
abroad has again increased.
A total of 92,324 students 58 percent of those who applied were
accepted as freshmen to one of the public systems nine undergraduate campuses.
Californians account for more than
two-thirds of all the applicants given a
spot, but those 61,834 residents marked
a decrease of 1,039 from last year.
Only three campuses Merced,
Riverside and San Diego admitted
more California residents than a year
ago.
The number of non-residents accepted
grew to 30,490, or 3,453 more than for
fall 2014.
The university has been admitting a
greater share of out-of-state and international students in recent years to help
bring in more revenue. A nonresident
will pay a tuition surcharge of over
$24,000 this fall on top of the $12,804
in tuition and fees charged to
Californians.
Not all students who are admitted end
up enrolling, so it is still too early to
say what proportion of the freshman
class will be from outside California,
said Stephen Handel, the universitys
associate vice president for undergraduate admissions.
Out-of-state students, the international students, often have a great deal
many more choices, and the degree to
which we are able to predict the number
who ultimately decide to come is limited, Handel said.
Democratic leaders in the Legislature
have been pressuring the system to prioritize California residents in admissions decisions over higher-paying
nonresidents, who now account for
about 14 percent of all UC undergraduates.
Assembly Speaker Toni Atkins called
the figures released Thursday more indication that there has to be a culture shift
at UC so California students are more of
a priority.
Right now UC is failing to meet its
responsibility to California students
and their families, and failure should be
no more acceptable for the administration than it is for students, Atkins said.
The budget for the fiscal year that
started Wednesday included a $25 million incentive for the university system
if it enrolls 5,000 more in-state undergraduates during the 2016-17 academic
year. Handel said it was too soon to say
whether campuses could meet that target.
For the second year in a row, the university also admitted more Latino students than white students, a reflection of
the diverse racial makeup of California,
where Latino children are a majority of
students in public schools.

Obama draws sharp contrasts
with the mean Republicans
By Jim Kuhnhenn
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LA CROSSE, Wis. Wading into presidential politics, President Barack Obama on
Thursday promoted his brand of middleclass economics by drawing sharp contrasts
with mean Republicans in a state whose
GOP governor was preparing to enter the
vast 2016 presidential field.
Theyre good people, Obama said of
Republicans. Its just their ideas are bad.
Obama leveled some of his sharpest criticism of Republicans, who disagree with him
on most matters, on the issue of health care
exactly one week after the Supreme Court
upheld a key component of the law and
Obama declared it here to stay.
Republicans in Congress have cast
dozens of votes to repeal the law, and they
have vowed to keep trying.
Every single one of them is still
obsessed with repealing the Affordable Care
Act, despite the fact that by every measure
its working, Obama said. It just seems a
little mean to say that you dont want to
provide coverage to millions of people
whove gained it under the law and you got
REUTERS
Barack Obama winks at reporters watching as he returns to the White House.
nothing to replace it with.
Thats a bad idea, the president said.
Republicans countered that Obama was
resorting to attacks because hes the one
short on good ideas.
Its no surprise all President Obama has
left are partisan attacks after spending the
last six and a half years presiding over the
weakest economic recovery in modern history and a declining middle class,
Republican Party spokesman Michael Short
said.
How Obama reversed course on federal college ratings
By Josh Lederman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON President Barack
Obama dearly wanted to get the government
in the business of rating colleges and universities based on value and affordability,
promising a new system by 2015. Now that
goal is shriveling under the weight of a concerted opposition from universities, lawmakers and bureaucrats in Obamas own
administration.
Nearly two years after the president,
standing before a crowd of 7,000 at the
University at Buffalo, unveiled the bold
proposal as a way to curb soaring college
costs, his administration has quietly but
drastically scaled back the initiative. No
longer does the federal government intend
to use a formula to score schools based on
factors like price, average student debt and
graduation rates, as Obama had envisioned.
Instead, the new tool will allow prospective students to decide which factors are
important to them, then draw their own conclusions from the statistics. But officials
couldnt point to any new statistics the tool
will offer that arent already available
through existing government websites.
Abandoning the original plan marked the
latest in a series of stumbles for Obamas
education priorities. In his 2013 State of
the Union address, Obama called for expanding access to pre-kindergarten to all
American children, and in his 2015 address,
he pushed a $60 billion plan to offer two
years of free community college. Neither
proposal has gained any traction.
The Education Department said its still
determining what the revised college tool
will look like, but that its still on track to
roll it out by the start of the 2015-2016 academic year, roughly two months from now.
It is anything but a retreat, Education
Department Undersecretary Ted Mitchell
said in an interview. Its a retooling and,
we think, an advance on the original concept.
Around the nation
Obamas counterterrorism
policy facing mounting criticism
WASHINGTON At the CIAs
Counterterrorism Center, it was a cause for
celebration: Meticulous intelligence analysis backed by Hellfire missiles had paid off,
once again.
The CIA launched a drone strike last month
on a Yemeni beach at three men it determined
were al-Qaida militants. One of them turned
out to be Nasser al-Wahishi, about as important a figure as agency man-hunters could
hope to eliminate. He had been both alQaidas second in command and the leader of
the groups dangerous Yemeni affiliate.
American officials touted the death as a
big victory. But did the demise of another
senior extremist, the latest in a long line to
be taken off the battlefield, make the United
States and its allies any safer?
To many experts, including a growing
number of former Obama administration
national security advisers, that proposition
is less convincing by the day.
With al-Qaida and the Islamic State group
enjoying safe havens across parts of Yemen,
Syria and Iraq, and with terror attacks on the
rise worldwide, doubts are growing about the
effectiveness and sustainability of the
administrations light footprint strategy
against global extremist movements.
With social media tease,
Wisconsins Walker jumps into 2016
MADISON, Wis. Wisconsin Gov. Scott
Walker, a preachers son who withstood a
recall election spawned by his fight with
public employee unions, is joining the
crowded Republican presidential race, aides
said on Thursday.
Having spent the past several months
traveling the country, speaking to conservatives, courting voters and scoring well in
some early polls, Walker will officially
enter the race with a campaign announcement in the Milwaukee suburb of Waukesha
on July 13, the aides said.
They spoke on condition of anonymity
because they werent authorized to publicly
discuss the campaign launch.
Walker started a countdown of sorts to his
kickoff by posting a slice of his presidential
campaign logo on Instagram, with eight
more pieces to come in the days ahead. He
also tweeted an image of himself waving
next to an American flag with the message
It begins.

Days before referendum, Greek
voters perplexed and undecided
By Derek Gatopoulos

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ATHENS, Greece Costas
Christoforidis hasnt decided how
to vote in Sundays referendum on
a bailout deal for Greeces troubled
economy. The problem is, the 37year-old farmer isnt sure what hes
voting for.
If its saying No to austerity,
then its a No from me too. But if
we are rejecting Europe, I disagree
with that, he said a position
that many of Greeces perplexed
public find themselves in ahead of
one of the most important votes in
their countrys modern history.
As Greek banks and markets
remained closed Thursday for a
fourth day, rival campaigns scrambled to roll out their messages.
And a prediction from the
International Monetary Fund that
They are making a serious mistake. Because the
world will consider a No vote to be a withdrawal from
the heart of Europe the first step toward euro exit.

Greece will need piles of additional cash from eurozone countries
and others over the next three
years put even more pressure on
the government.
Our efforts are focused on overcoming the crisis as fast as possible with a solution that preserves the dignity and sovereignty
of our people, Prime Minister
Alexis Tsipras said.
The popular 40-year-old prime
minister is gambling his government on a call to voters to reject
austerity measures demanded by
bailout lenders, despite coming
close to a deal last week.
A strong No vote, he argued,
would help Greece win a new deal
with the eurozones rescue mechanism that would include terms to
make the countrys 320 billion
euro national debt sustainable.
Opponents say he is risking the
countrys future asking voters
to weigh in on a bailout offer that
expired at midnight on Tuesday.
They are making a serious mistake. Because the world will consider a No vote to be a withdrawal from the heart of Europe the
first step toward euro exit, former

Boko Haram guns down 97 in Nigerian mosques
By Haruna Umar
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
MAIDUGURI, Nigeria Boko
Haram extremists gunned down
nearly 100 Muslims praying in
mosques in a northeast Nigerian
town during the holy month of
Ramadan, a government official
and a self-defense fighter said
Thursday.
The attack Wednesday night on
the town of Kukawa came the day
after the Islamic extremist group
attacked a village 35 kilometers
(22 miles) away and killed another
48 men and boys, according to
witnesses who counted the dead.
The people of Kukawa were in
several mosques, praying ahead of
breaking their daylong fast, when
the extremists attacked. They
killed 97 people, mainly men,
said self-defense spokesman
Abbas Gava and a senior government official who spoke on condition of anonymity because he is
not authorized to give information
to reporters.
Gava said his groups fighters in
Kukawa said some militants also
broke into peoples homes,
killing women and children as
they prepared the evening meal.
Kukawa is 180 kilometers (110
miles) northeast of Maiduguri, the
biggest city in northeast Nigeria
and the birthplace of Boko Haram.
Nigerias homegrown extremist
group often defiles mosques where
it believes clerics espouse too
moderate a form of Islam.
Wednesdays attack follows a
directive from the Islamic State
group for fighters to increase
attacks during Ramadan. Boko
Haram this year became the IS
groups West African franchise.

Strong leadership at the San Mateo Union High School District 800 years, and a
By Marc Friedman
his week, the San Mateo Union
High School District is transitioning from Scott Laurence as superintendent to Kevin Skelly. This leadership
transition is taking place as the school district is thriving both educationally and
nancially. The successes of the school
district are due to the combined efforts of
our superintendent, school board, district
administration, teachers, support staff, dedicated parents and volunteers, and supportive local communities. Everyone is working together to provide our community a
high school district that is making our
community a desirable place to live and
work.
Educationally, the district has never been
in a better place. Two of our comprehensive
high schools were recently named Gold
Ribbon Schools (the successor program to
the Distinguished Schools Program) by the
California Department of Education. As
well, a recent rating of school districts in
the San Francisco-Oakland metropolitan
area rated SMUHSD in the top ve school
districts in the metropolitan area and we
were the highest rated district in the county. In addition, almost every one of the districts comprehensive high schools were
ranked in the top 100 high schools in all
of California out of a total of approximately 10,800 public and private high schools
throughout the state. Graduation rates at
our high schools have improved. We have
supported the successful launch of an innovative charter high school, Design Tech
(d.tech). Unlike other charters throughout
the state, this school was conceptualized
by our own SMUHSD employees and provides a curriculum that is unique and offers
an option for students looking for a less
traditional high school experience. I
believe d.tech is the sort
of program the
Legislature had in mind
when legislators passed
the law authorizing charter schools.
Financially, we are
strong. We have solid
reserves that have been
achieved through careful
management of our operating expenditures.
We are in the nal stages of a 10-plus-year
capital improvement program funded generously by three bond measures passed by
our residents. In the next year, we will have
completed renovation and expansion of our
six comprehensive high school campuses.
These beautiful campuses with state-of-theart classrooms are prepared to handle the
growth in student enrollment currently
working its way through our local elementary school districts. We have opened completely remodeled standalone performing
arts centers in San Mateo and San Bruno
that serve both our schools and the broader
communities. We have saved taxpayers
millions in interest expenses (over what
was projected in the bond measures) by
locking into bonds during the last few
years of record low interest rates.
We are currently working on new facilities for our alternative high school and district administration two projects under
voter-approved Measure O. The board is
making sure we spend our nal money
wisely in ways that best serve our students.
Recently, the SMUHSD team worked hard
to nd a new solution for our maintenance
facility that will potentially save taxpayers millions over the facility originally
proposed.
We are not a district to rest on our laurels. We have a culture of continuous
improvement. We are always looking for
ways to improve, doing things better so
the SMUHSD can achieve stronger educa-
Guest
perspective
tional results. When Scott Laurence told
the board he was leaving, board members
set our goal on hiring the best superintendent possible. We received interest from
candidates all over the state as well as
those who had been superintendents in
other states. We were very excited to be
able to hire Kevin Skelly, an accomplished
superintendent who has worked throughout
the state and has proven to be a strong education leader and student advocate with a
passion for working with surrounding communities.
As president of the SMUHSD Board of
Trustees, I am proud of this districts successes. However, these successes would not
be possible without the dedication and contributions from our accomplished worldclass teachers, our strong team of administrators, our support staff and the hard work
of my fellow board members.
As we wish Scott Laurence a leader
who is a strong advocate for all students
and put the district on the path for our
recent accomplishments a successful
next chapter in his professional journey,
we welcome Kevin Skelly and know that we
have created a strong foundation upon
which to continue to build. We hope you
share our passion for serving our students,
and join the SMUHSD in our mission to
provide the best possible education to our
communitys youth.
Marc Friedman is the president of the San
Mateo Union High School District Board of
Trustees.

The benefits of toll, carpool lanes
Editor,
I must respectfully take issue with some
of the statements Jon Mays made in his
June 26 column The trouble with toll, carpool lanes.
Carpool lanes are designed to encourage
people to carpool, and they do. I live in
Alameda and work in Foster City. My companion and I breeze through the carpool
lanes on Interstate 880 and State Route 92
while the rest of the trafc is standing still.
We can get to or from work in 40 minutes
most days, where it takes solo drivers 6090 minutes. By alternating driving, we cut
our travel expenses in half and our tolls by
75 percent. Were also doing good for the
environment. Because carpoolers are in the
carpool lanes, non-carpool lanes move
faster than they otherwise would.
Toll lanes are also a good idea, for the
same reason. They keep drivers willing and
able to pay the toll out of the regular lanes,

beneting everyone. If you can afford to
operate a car, you can probably also afford
the toll. We already live in a country where
life is smoother and more convenient for
people with money, and I dont see that
changing any time soon. Nor should it. I
want to improve the lives of the poor, but
not by making my own life as difcult as
theirs. There is no inherent conict
between carpool lanes and public transportation. I have had a car for most of my
adult life and a driving license since age
16, but I take public transportation when I
can, because its far less expensive and
stressful than driving and parking, and the
people-watching opportunities are
unmatched.
As for the $16.5 million cost for the
study, that comes to less than $3 per Bay
Area resident. I doubt many of us will miss
it.

1776, was not the actual date for the
birth of our nation in that the states had
formed constitutions months before and
it was declared July 2, and signed a
month later, the Continental Congress
adopted the Declaration of Independence
on what is now known as our
Independence Day. And we celebrate it as
our second president, John Adams,
described, with pomp and parade, with
shows, games, sports, guns, bells, bonfires and illuminations, from one end of
this continent
to the other,
from this time
forward forever
more.
Yet the roots
of our democracy reach further than these
239 years, and
can be directly
traced the
signing of the
Magna Carta,
800 years ago
in June. For
many, this
document is a relic, yet it established a
new order for the English Empire and was
the first notion of removing the divine
right of kings. Before it was signed by
King John to placate a group of unsatisfied barons at the top of the feudal system, it was well accepted that kings were
the vessel of God and what they said was
directly delivered from a deity. Today, the
notion, of course, is absurd, though some
might argue that certain presidents seem
to act as if they are the king. However,
before 1215, even suggesting a negative
word about a ruler was deemed to be reason for imprisonment or even death.
Times have changed.
It was in that document, the Magna
Carta, that English Common Law was
established which essentially created
due process and eliminated the arbitrary
nature of the kings previous rule. The
Magna Carta was applied sporadically
throughout the years and came into new
prominence in the 17th centuries during
the enlightenment. As the land now
known as the United States was colonialized at that time, it was done so for religious and personal freedom but also to
provide resources for the English
Empire. Exploration for, and wars over,
resources is certainly nothing new. In
the establishment of the 13 colonies,
there too established a new spirit of
independence that led to its citizens dissatisfaction with royal rule, and ultimately the Declaration of Independence,
the formation of a new government and
the drafting and adoption of the
Constitution creating our current governmental framework March 4, 1789.
So while we celebrate the birth of our
nation tomorrow, we should also keep in
mind the documents and growing philosophy that led to it and the document of
our Constitution, our Bill of Rights and
the other 17 amendments, the last being
adopted in 1992. Two-hundred-and-thirtynine years may seem like a long time,
and 800 years even longer, yet is a mere
blip in time in the larger arc of human
and government existence. While a quick
look at headlines may make it seem like
we have a long way to go, weve come
quite far in these eight centuries since the
Magna Carta was first established. And
that, indeed, is something to commemorate and celebrate.

NEW YORK Stocks ended a tumultuous trading week with slight losses
Thursday as investors sought safety
ahead of an extended holiday weekend.
Investors bought at the opening of
trading after a Labor Department report
on job creation suggested the economy was improving, though not so fast
as to raise the specter of inflation and
higher interest rates. But the gains
vanished after a downbeat report from
the International Monetary Fund on
Greeces finances as the country heads
toward a vote on the countrys financial bailout this weekend.
It was a quiet close to an eventful
week. Stocks plunged around the world
Monday over worries that a Greek
default could spread losses throughout
the global financial system. A continued drop in Chinese stocks added to the
fears, as well as a statement from
Puerto Ricos governor that the commonwealth would not be able to pay
back its large public debt.
Stocks rose a bit over the next two
days, but by Thursdays close the
Standard and Poors 500 index was
still down 1.2 percent for the week, its
biggest weekly loss in three months.
U.S. markets will be closed Friday in
observance of the Independence Day
holiday.
There is no wage pressure and therefore
no inflationary pressure. The Fed should just let
the economy run. ... Maybe instead of hiking rates in

The S&P 500 slipped 0.64 points,
less than 0.1 percent, to 2,076.78.
The Dow Jones industrial average fell
27. 80 points, or 0. 2 percent, to
17,730.11. The Nasdaq composite fell
3.91 points, less than 0.1 percent, to
5,009.21.
Weve got Greece, weve got China
and Puerto Rico, said Sean Lynch, cohead of global equity strategy for
Wells Fargo Investment Institute.
Investors want to take some risk off
the table.
The jobs report showed payrolls
rose by 223,000 in June and the unemployment rate fell to a seven-year low
of 5.3 percent. But the rate declined
mostly because many people abandoned their job hunts and were no
longer counted as unemployed.
The report also said average hourly
earnings rose 2 percent, slightly lower
than consensus.
Investors bought bonds in anticipation that inflation, and interest rates,
will remain low. The price of the
benchmark 10-year Treasury note rose,
pushing down its yield to 2.38 percent
from 2.45 percent just before the jobs
report came out.
There is no wage pressure and therefore no inflationary pressure. The Fed
should just let the economy run, said
Steven Ricchiuto, chief economist at

The report from the IMF said Greece
needs 50 billion euros ($56 billion) in
new financing from October through
2018, and more debt relief. The analysis was made before Greece closed its
banks and defaulted on IMF loans earlier this week. The outlook is worse
now.
Greeces government plans to put

Can Marriage Exist Between
Science And Religion?
By Paul Larson
MILLBRAE
Some
say
that
science and religion
dont mix. Some
say that science is
the ultimate search
for God. Some say
religion supersedes
science, some say both have equal stature
and others say both are hogwash. Everyone
has their own personal assessment of the
correlation between science and religion.
The aspiration of religion along with the
aspiration of science is to explain the
universe and answer questions about life, in
addition to satisfying human psychological
needs when dealing with the realities of
death. Religion is based on faith, science is
based on observation, and both are based on
human curiosity and the need to find
answers. Whether a person is repetitively
reading religious scripture, or fascinated by
repeatable scientific experimentations, both
are searching for methods that answer
questions about the universe around us.
It can be debated that early humans
turned to religion as a way to alleviate their
fears and gain reassurance with the concept
of life after death. This helped to give them
a sense of order in a confusing world that
often seemed mysterious.
Eventually
scientific realization evolved along side
religion and the process of trial and error
established itself as a way to solve some of
these mysteries. Firethe wheelfarming.
The more humans observed the world they
lived in, the more they leaned how the
natural world worked and how they could
manipulate it to their advantage. Over the
centuries religious power came at odds with
scientific discovery, which led to a period of
scientific stagnation: The Dark Ages.
Later at the dawn of The Renaissance
science was again embraced leading to great
advances in art, architecture, medicine,
astronomy and other natural sciences. Over
the ages science and religion have been
evolving together on a roller coaster ride of
acceptance, denial and equilibrium.
We now appear to be at a crossroads
where religion is not only viewing science
with an evaluative broadmindedness, but is
exploring hand in hand with scientific
processes.
One prime example is the
Vaticans
Pontifical
Academy
of
Sciences. Quoting John Paul II: ...today
eminent scientists are members a visible
sign of the profound harmony that can
exist between the truths of science and the
truths of faith.... Gregor Mendel, the father
of Genetics, was an Augustinian Friar.
Georges Lemaitre, who developed much of
the Big Bang Theory, was a Belgian priest.
Recently, Pope Francis, who has a Masters
Degree in Chemistry, insisted that there is
no reason to believe that science and God
are incompatible.
With all this in mind, every human being
is unique as a fingerprint, and every human
brain has its own unique consciousness.
Whether you analyze with your religious cap
or your science cap, matrimony between the
two could be found by looking inward. So,
close your eyes, examine your deep
thoughts, and you may detect a rational
enlightenment finely attuned to both.

Medicare Advantage program, which has
seen its overall enrollment triple over the
past decade.
The health care overhaul is expanding
Medicaid coverage to millions as it seeks
to provide health insurance for more people. This comes as more states are turning
to insurers to help them manage their
Medicaid populations.
Centene said the Health Net deal will
strengthen its presence in the nations
largest Medicaid market, California, and
create a combined company with about 6
million Medicaid members, making it one
of the largest in the country.
Both Centene and Health Net recognize
that scale and diversification are becoming
increasingly

Centene
Chairman and CEO Michael Neidorff told
analysts after the deal was announced.
The acquisition also will build Centenes
Medicare business in several western
states. As the baby boom generation ages,
insurers are seeking to offer more Medicare
prescription drug coverage and Medicare
Advantage plans, which are privately run
versions of the federally-funded program
for people over age 65 and the disabled.
About 16.8 million people were enrolled
in Medicare Advantage plans as of March,
according to the nonprofit Kaiser Family
Foundation, which studies health care
issues. That figure grew by more than 1
million from last year.
Whole Foods apologizes for pricing problems
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK Whole Foods Market is
apologizing to its shoppers for incorrect
pricing, a week after a New York investigation found that the natural food grocer routinely overcharged for prepackaged fruits,
vegetables and deli meats.
Straight up, we made some mistakes,
said co-CEO Walter Robb, as he stood beside
co-CEO John Mackey in a YouTube video
posted Wednesday. We want to own that.
Robb and Mackey said that the pricing
mistakes were unintentional and that the
company will increase its training at stores

Tesla tops 11,000 vehicles
delivered in second quarter
PALO ALTO Electric car maker Teslas
second-quarter deliveries surged 52 percent
to set a company record exceeding 11,000
vehicles.
The Palo Alto company had surpassed
10,000 vehicles for the first time in the first
three months of the year and on Thursday
said it had broken that record, delivering
11,507 vehicles. Tesla makes only one car,
the Model S sedan, but CEO Elon Musk said
last month he expects to begin deliveries of
an SUV, the Model X, in three or four
months. Tesla began 2015 with 20,000
reservations for the Model X.
Shares of Tesla Motors Inc. climbed 4 percent, or $10.87, to close at $280.02 on
Thursday. The stock is up 22 percent over
the past year.
Foods will give items away for free if customers discover they were overcharged. We
apologize to our customers for any discrepancies that may have occurred, the company said in blog post.
Last week, New Yorks Department of
Consumer Affairs said it was expanding its
investigation after finding that Whole
Foods stores in the city regularly ripped customers off, including overcharging $14.84
for a package of coconut shrimp and $4.85
for eight chicken tenders. The department
tested 80 types of prepackaged items and
found all of them had mislabeled weights.
The investigation focused on eight stores in
the city.

Womens World Cup: The haves and have-nots
By Anne M. Peterson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
VANCOUVER, British Columbia One
of the benefits of an expanded field of 24
teams at the Womens World Cup this year
was that there were lots of fresh faces playing in Canada, teams like Ivory Coast,
Ecuador and Cameroon.
While that was good for the womens
game globally, the expansion showed the
stark contrast between the haves and havenots. Case in point was Ivory Coast, which
arrived in Canada and 72 hours later opened
the tournament with a 10-0 loss to topranked Germany.
Ivory Coast went on to lose to Thailand
and Norway before exiting the tournament.
Afterward, coach Clementine Toure made an
impassioned plea.
I want to make an appeal to not only our
federation, but to all of Africa, that womens
football has arrived. We believe in our
women. We have a good team, she said
through a translator following the teams
final group match. The Ivory Coast
showed it deserves a place in the World Cup.
But we also deserved to be better prepared.
We didnt deserve to be humiliated.
The monthlong tournament has been
played across six Canadian cities. It concludes this weekend with the third-place
match between Germany and England on
Saturday in Edmonton, and the title game
between the United States and Japan on
Sunday at Vancouvers BC Place.
The global attention on the World Cup
could give national federations incentive to
invest more in the womens game. There is
evidence its already happening, said
Tatjana Haenni, FIFAs head of womens
football.
We know that Thailand really tried to
prepare for the tournament the best they
could. They put a really good program in

place, they traveled to Europe to play some
games, they organized a camp, and they got
some consultants to help the team and the
staff to reach their best performance possible, she said.
While some lopsided results were expected, Haenni said bringing more teams in will
help the game as a whole.
That these teams realized what the level
(of play) is at a FIFA World Cup, and that
there is a gap between the top teams and
where they are, they need to make sure they
have better leagues, better player development, better national team plans with more
games and programs in place to close that
gap, she told The Associated Press.
While FIFA has been criticized at times
for its treatment of the womens game in
general from President Sepp Blatters
infamous suggestion in 2004 that the
women could wear tighter shorts, to the
cries of gender discrimination over the artificial turf surface at this years tournament
soccers international governing body
has taken positive steps over the last decade
to grow the sport.
There were 12 teams in the first Womens
World Cup in 1991, expanding to 16 in
1999 before jumping to 24 this year. FIFA
added an under-20 Womens World Cup in
2002, and an under-17 tournament in 2008.
Since 2004, FIFA has decreed that a percentage of its Financial Assistance Program
funds it provides to member nations go to
development on the womens side. FIFA
says the 15 percent mandate is a starting
point and many member nations invest far
more, with the average at 22 percent in
2014. Member nations can also secure additional funds through the international governing bodys numerous development programs.
Last year, the FIFA Congress adopted a
comprehensive list of principles for developing the womens game. During this
years tournament, the organization
announced programs to develop women for
leadership positions, as well as a scholarship program to train female coaches.
We feel theres a huge momentum now
for womens football, and women in football, Haenni said. I think the world is
open to embrace the sport. We have already
seen tremendous success from a television
viewership point of view, to social media
and overall media coverage.
Still, work remains. An example of the
lack of support at the local level was evident last year at the regional CONCACAF
championship, a tournament which served
as qualifying for the World Cup.
Trinidad and Tobagos national team
arrived in the United States for the event
with just $500 collectively and no equipment. Volunteer coach Randy Waldrum, also
coach of the NWSLs Houston Dash, sent
out an urgent plea for help via Twitter.
Money came pouring in.
Already Cameroon is benefiting in one
way from the exposure that nation received
at the World Cup.
Ranked No. 53 in the world, Cameroon
made its World Cup debut in Canada and
pushed through to the round of 16. While
the federation support may not be there,
coach Enow Ngachu said theres increased
interest a direct result of the teams success.
We have the talented players. The problem African nations face is preparation, he
said, adding that hes hopeful: The day we
are prepared well an African nation will be
able to win the World Cup.
Bradley assumes captains role for Gold Cup
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CHICAGO Michael Bradley will be the
U.S. captain for the CONCACAF Gold Cup
rather than Clint Dempsey.
Dempsey took over as the American captain from Carlos Bocanegra two years ago.
He was suspended for three games by Major
League Soccer for a confrontation with a referee June 16 in Seattles fourth-round loss to
Portland in the U.S. Open Cup, when he
grabbed a notebook from the official and
tore it after a teammate was given a red card.
He also was suspended for six U.S. Open
Cup matches.
Its important to have Clint be in his
best condition for us, U.S. coach Jurgen
Klinsmann said Thursday. Clint is exceptional, an absolutely exceptional player.
Hes proven that year in and year out. Hes
proving that now in MLS, like Jozy
(Altidore) does as well. We need him. We
need him on board. We need him in a good
mood. We need him to be
enthusiastic about the
next couple of weeks.
And we need him to
score.
Klinsmann thinks it is
too early to tell whether
the switch could become
permanent.
Well see after the
Michael
Gold
Cup how things are

going, he said.
The Americans play
Guatemala in an exhibition on Friday at
Nashville, Tennessee,

their Gold Cup title
against Honduras on

when Bradley could
Clint Dempsey make his 100th international appearance. If the
Americans win the Gold Cup, they would
earn a berth in the 2017 Confederations Cup
in Russia. If another nation wins the Gold
Cup, it would play the U.S. in a playoff for
the Confederations Cup berth.
Bradley called the captaincy a huge
honor, a big responsibility, certainly one
that Im very excited about, but it doesnt
change who I am.
Were lucky on this team we have a number of guys with big personalities who
come in ready to push each other, ready to
compete, ready to lead, Bradley said.
Thats always been the strength of this
team. I know that guys like Brad Guzan,
Clint and Jozy will be right there with me.
Theres a feeling amongst us and others that
were all in this together.
In other news, defender Greg Garza was
added to the Americans 23-man Gold Cup
roster in place of Brad Davis, who injured a
knee.
The U.S. Soccer Federation also said for-
ward Jordan Morris, who was on the 35-man
preliminary Gold Cup roster, has a stress
fracture in a leg. Morris posted a photo on
Instagram of himself prior to surgery. He is
expected to be ready to play for the fall season at Stanford, where he will be a junior.
Jordan Morris was a guy on our radar for
the final knockout stage, Klinsmann said.
He would have come in already training
with the team for the first portion, but with
the injury that he got we felt that it was safer
to deal with it right now immediately, so
hes going to be out for four to six weeks.
Its a bummer for him, because hes done
extremely well over the last year. Hes one
of our most promising talents coming
through the ranks, but those setbacks happen and maybe we see him toward the end of
the tournament joining the group just for
the fun of it. Its just sad for him because he
was in very good shape.

Quintana back at Tour de France as a contender
By Jorge Sainz
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
UTRECHT, The Netherlands Nairo
Quintana comes back to the Tour de France
unwilling to settle for second place.
The Colombian climbing specialist made
himself a contender at his first and only Tour
in 2013 by finishing runner-up to Chris
Froome. The following year, his Movistar
team made the surprising decision to sit their
new star out of the 2014 Tour in a long-term
plan to build up Quintanas mental toughness
to tackle cyclings grandest tour.
Now, at 25, Quintana feels he is ready to
become Latin Americas first Tour winner in
its 102nd edition.
When I arrived at the Tour two years ago, I
came with a different mentality. I was much
calmer, more relaxed, Quintana told The
Associated Press in an interview on Thursday.
Alejandro (Valverde) carried the major part
of the responsibility. And, well, now the
responsibility is on me, and I have to carry it
all myself. I have been
preparing very hard and
preparing myself for this
moment. Now that it has
arrived, we hope things
go well.

2013, Quintana has hit

Nairo Quintana up to the hype by winning the 2014 Giro
dItalia before watching Valverde lead
Movistar with a fourth-place finish at the
Tour. Well rested, he entered the Spanish
Vuelta as the favorite, only for his shot at a
grand tour double to be dashed by a broken
shoulder.
He has since worked back to full fitness,
and won Italys week-long Tirreno-Adriatico
in March.
The wait to see if he can improve on his runner-up finish two years ago has been worth it.
Quintana said hes ready to lead the team.

in various roles with the Milwaukee Bucks, including as general manager from 2003 to 2008.
Penfold will oversee the Warriors training, strength and
conditioning programs in a newly created role. He most recently served as head of physical preparation for the Australian
Mens Sevens Rugby Union squad. He also has worked in a
variety of sports the past 20 years, including with athletes in
five Olympics.
Cardinals fire scouting director
Correa amid hacking scandal
ST. LOUIS The St. Louis Cardinals said Thursday they
have fired scouting director Chris Correa, the first known fallout from the hacking scandal that has resulted in a federal
investigation into whether the team illegally got inside the
player personnel database of the Houston Astros.
The Cardinals declined to say why Correa was fired but con-
I have done a very good job. The sensations
are very positive, and the important thing is
that I have a strong team to accompany me,
he said.
We wanted me to have more experience to
face the Tour as a solid leader, and thats why I
needed to compete in another type of similar
races, and to know how to handle a team, and
handle myself, so I could mature. And I have
the experience now, and this is the moment to
race the Tour.
The three-week Tour culminating in Paris
starts on Saturday with an individual time trial
around Utrecht. Quintana said he feels at home
in this Dutch city with, fittingly enough,
more bicycles than cars on its streets.
He doesnt shy from accepting the tag as
one of the favorites. He likes the route, which
favors climbers, with seven mountain stages,
including five summit finishes in the Alps
and the Pyrenees.
Given the quality of the field, which
includes previous winners Froome, Alberto
Contador, and Vincenzo Nibali, Quintana
firmed hed been let go a day earlier after a team-imposed leave
of absence. The team is investigating the alleged hacking, as
is the FBI.
Jim Martin, an attorney hired by the team in February,
declined to say how long Correa had been on leave. Correa,
who was promoted to director of amateur scouting during the
offseason, shepherded some of the teams top draft picks this
season to interviews at Busch Stadium just a few weeks ago.
Martin said no other employees had been terminated and the
investigation wasnt done.
I cant give you an end-point, Martin said. But our internal review is still ongoing.
An attorney for Correa, Nicholas Williams, said in a statement that Correa denies any illegal conduct and instead
pointed at the Astros.
AP Source: Wade chooses to stay with Heat
MIAMI Dwyane Wade is staying with the Miami Heat.
Wade informed the Heat on Thursday that he will accept their
one-year offer to re-sign for $20 million for next season, said
a person familiar with the negotiations. The person spoke to
The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because no
NBA deals can be finalized this summer until July 9.
The decision ends a weeks-long, sometimes-contentious
saga between the Heat and their franchise player. Wade was
open to the idea of leaving Miami over a contract dispute,
moreso than ever before.
But in the end, the three-time champion and the only team
for whom hes played worked out a deal that conceivably could
mean he will finish his career in Miami.
pointed to the penultimate stage at Alpe
dHuez, with its 21 curves to the summit, as
decisive.
The Alpe dHuez draws my attention for the
greats who have won there, he said. The last
week in the Alps will make the difference and
determine the podium. Nibali and Contador
will be the most dangerous, they are in great
shape. And Froome also. Those three are very
important.
Born in the town of Combita at an altitude
of 3,000 meters (9,800 feet), Quintana biked
16 kilometers (10 miles) every day to school.
Little did he know that he was training to be
the best rider of a gifted group of Colombian
cyclists who are rekindling the sport in his
mountainous country.
It was something that was going to happen with time, and this new generation and
people who are coming behind us, he said.
There is good cycling in Colombia now. Its
a challenge for Colombians, and for me personally.

Sharks sign defender, three forwards
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN JOSE The San Jose Sharks signed
former Harvard defenseman Patrick McNally to
a two-year contract Thursday and forwards John
McCarthy, Bryan Lerg and Micheal Haley to
one-year deals.
The Sharks also signed minor league defenseman Mark Cundari to a one-year deal as they
stocked up the depth in their organization.
San Jose began filling out Peter DeBoers
new coaching staff by hiring assistant Bob
Boughner and goaltending coach Johan
Hedberg.
In other news, executive Wayne Thomas
retired after 22 years with the organization.
McNally was originally a fourth-round pick
by Vancouver in 2010 but went to college
instead of signing with the Canucks. The
Sharks acquired his rights for a seventh-round
pick at this years draft.
McNally had six goals and 15 assists in 21
games at Harvard this season.
Patrick is a player we have had our eye on for
some time now, general manager Doug
Wilson said. He has been a very productive
collegiate defenseman and head coach Ted
Donato and the Harvard staff have done a

varied, risky and entertaining brand of tennis, a mix of old-school serve-and-volleying, drop shots, drop volleys and go-for-it
returns.
I had nothing to lose. If I lose 6-1, 6-2,
6-3, everyone says Bravo, Rafa, Brown
said.
The 30-year-old Brown was born in
Germany to a Jamaican father whose face
is tattooed on Browns stomach and
German mother. They moved to Jamaica
when he was 12 and returned to Europe about
a decade ago. Around that time, his parents
bought him an RV so he could drive from
tournament to tournament.
Who could have imagined this sort of triumph back then? Or, frankly, even now?
After all, Brown is ranked 102nd, entered
Thursday with a 6-11 record in 2015 and has
never been past the third round at a major.
Nadal, meanwhile, is a former No. 1 and
the owner of 14 major titles, tied with Pete
Sampras for second-most behind Roger
Federers 17.
Federer joined Andy Murray and Petra
Kvitova as past Wimbledon champions
NFL
Continued from page 11
In my 12 years in the NFL, I have taken
tremendous pride in upholding the integrity of
the NFL shield and all that it entails, Gates
said.
In an effort to recover from a long season
and although I was unaware at the time, I regret
to confirm that I tested positive for a substance that is currently on the NFL banned
tremendous job preparing him to take the next
step. Were excited for him to continue his
development with our organization.
McCarthy, 28, has played 87 career games
with San Jose with three goals and three
assists.
Lerg, 29, had 13 goals and 28 assists for
Worcester of the AHL last year and scored in his
NHL debut on April 9 at Edmonton.
Haley, 29, had 18 goals and 13 assists at
Worcester last season.
Cundari, 25, had seven goals and 22 assists
in 50 games last season for Adirondack of the
AHL.
Boughner spent the past four seasons as head
coach of Windsor in the OHL. He spent one
year as an assistant in the NHL with Columbus
in 2010-11. Boughner played in 630 NHL
games as a defenseman with Colorado,
Carolina, Calgary, Pittsburgh, Nashville and
Buffalo.
Hedberg served most recently as the goaltending coach for New Jerseys AHL affiliate
and had also been a special assignment scout in
the organization when DeBoer was the Devils
head coach. Hedberg played in 373 career NHL
games with Pittsburgh, Vancouver, Dallas,
Atlanta and New Jersey.
Thomas, 67, spent 45 years in hockey as a
player, coach, scout and executive. He played
goalie for nine years in the NHL for Montreal,
Toronto and the New York Rangers. The
Canadiens won the Stanley Cup his rookie year
in 1972-73.
Thomas worked closely with the goalies in
San Jose and had various other duties.
picking up straightforward, straight-set victories Thursday. Federers 6-4, 6-2, 6-2 win
over Sam Querrey of the U.S. included one
particularly memorable moment an onthe-run, between-the-legs lob.
You want to go over and give him a highfive sometimes, Querrey said, but you
cant do that.
Nadal used to leave opponents feeling
that way, too. Not lately. He missed time
last season with a right wrist injury, then
needed appendix surgery, and has spoken
about confidence issues.
After his run of five consecutive French
Open titles ended last month with a quarterfinal loss to Novak Djokovic, Nadals ranking dropped to 10th, his worst in 10 years.
Now he has failed to win any of his past
four major tournaments, not even reaching
the semifinals. Its the 29-year-old
Spaniards longest drought since the first
five Slams of his career.
Consider, too, Nadals history at
Wimbledon. He lost to Federer in the 2006
and 2007 finals, then beat him 9-7 in the
fifth set of the epic 2008 final. After missing the 2009 tournament because of injury,
Nadal collected another trophy in 2010,
then lost to Djokovic in the 2011 final.
I dont know if I will be back to (that)
level, Nadal acknowledged.
In 2012, he lost to No. 100 Lukas Rosol
in the second round. In 2013, he lost to No.
135 Steve Darcis in the first. And last year,
he lost to No. 144 Nick Kyrgios in the
fourth.
Like those guys, Brown played wonderfully. His back-length dreadlocks jumping
around as he raced to the net, Brown serveand-volleyed on 99 of 114 service points,
winning 71 of those. He hit serves at up to
133 mph (215 kph).
Whatever I do is to take him out of his
comfort zone, Brown said.
Most importantly, he never let up.
Im very happy that I held it together for
the whole match, said Brown, who also
beat Nadal on grass in Germany last year.
This match turned for good at 2-all in the
third set, when Nadals pair of double-faults
handed over a break point that Brown converted with a drop-volley winner. Brown
looked up at his guest box, where folks were
jumping and yelling and fist-pumping wildly.
At least Nadal, who never earned a break
chance over the last two sets, was able to
joke afterward.
When a reporter asked whether he would
stick around at his rented place before heading home, Nadal replied: I dont have more
work here in London, so if you want to use
the house, (its) going to be free tomorrow.
substance list.
The 35-year-old Gates, who is fourth all
time in receptions (788) and yards (10,014)
for tight ends, said he should have made sure
he was taking something that met NFL guidelines.
I have always believed that ignorance is no
excuse when it comes to these issues, and I
take full responsibility for my actions, Gates
said.
Richardson was the AP Defensive Rookie of
the Year in 2013 and expected to be a major
part of new coach Todd Bowles defense. He
has 11 1/2 sacks in two seasons.
This is something that can only be
addressed by how I handle myself from this
point on, the 24-year-old Richardson said. I
dont want this to take away from what the
team is trying to accomplish.
Caps get Sochi shootout star
Oshie from Blues for Brouwer
ARLINGTON, Va. T.J. Oshie is looking
forward to joining Alex Ovechkin and Nicklas
Backstrom with the Washington Capitals,
who acquired the Sochi Olympics shootout
star from the St. Louis Blues on Thursday for
Troy Brouwer.
As part of the swap of right wings,
Washington also will send AHL goalie
Pheonix Copley and a third-round pick in next
years NHL draft to St. Louis.
Oshie had 19 goals and 36 assists in 72
games last season, his seventh in the NHL, all
with St. Louis. He is best known for scoring
four times during a shootout to lead the United
States to a victory against Russia at the 2014
Olympics.
McClains suspension means the Cowboys

Continued from page 11
Its unbelievable the energy he will bring
to the starting rotation, relievers, the whole
team, defense, offense, Blanco said. Its
good to have him back.
The Giants get another boost Friday when
Jake Peavy, out since April 17 with a strained
back, is scheduled to start at Washington. The
return of two starters took a little sting out of
the sweep, the first in a series of at least three
games for Miami at home against the Giants
since 1999.
The crowd of 32,598 roared with every
strike from Fernandez. Thanks to a giveaway
promotion, Marlins fans were armed with
masks of their aces face.
The first two batters to face Fernandez
scored, but he soon found the form that made
him the 2013 NL Rookie of the Year.
I would have loved to have pitched a little
better, he said. But its exciting I got the
first one out of the way and we got a win.
Blanco homered against Fernandez (1-0),
and Buster Posey also homered for the Giants.
Fernandez topped out at 99 mph, and his
final pitch was clocked at 97. His command
was excellent, too six strikeouts, no walks
and 68 of 89 pitches for strikes.
He had his normal stuff, it looked like,
Bochy said. You dont expect to score a lot of
runs off him. He looks healthy.
Roster moves
Gi ants : As expected, RHP Tim Lincecum
was placed on the disabled list retroactive to
Sunday, allowing for Cain to be activated.
Lincecum bruised his right forearm when hit
by a line drive Saturday.
Trainers room
Gi ants : Posey was back in the lineup after
leaving Wednesdays game when a foul tip
jarred his facemask. Posey started at 1B but
was available as a backup C. ... OF Angel
Pagan, who has been bothered by a swollen
knee, was held out of the starting lineup on his
34th birthday. He pinch-hit in the eighth and

Tiger Woods finds old
stroke, fires 4-under 66
By John Raby
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS,
W. Va. For a change, Tiger
Woods got off to a good start.
Woods rebounded from a dismal
U.S. Open with a 4-under-par 66 in
Thursdays opening round of The
Green b ri er
Classic,
four
shots behind
leader
Scott
Langley.
Helped by a
morning rain
that softened
the Old White
TPC course in
Tiger Woods West Virginia,
Woods posted
his lowest score of the season and
matched his best in relation to par.
It was only the fourth time he
shot in the 60s in 21 rounds. None
on the rst day of a tournament.
Overall I cant really say I hit
any great shots, but I hit a lot of
good ones, Woods said. I hit the
ball better than what my score
indicates.
Two weeks ago at the U.S. Open,
Woods had the highest 36-hole
score of his pro career 156.
Woods came to Greenbrier
ranked No. 220 in the world and
faced with the prospect of missing
cuts in consecutive tournaments
for the rst time since 1994, when
he had not yet turned pro.
For one round, at least, his solid
game returned.
Overall, if you drive the ball
well here, youre going to probably have at least seven shots with
9-iron or below into the greens,
and youre going to have to capitalize on that, Woods said. So far
Im one of those guys who did.
Woods started on the back nine
Thursday and birdied three of his
rst seven holes. He made bogey
on the par-5 17th after his drive
went into a hazard to the right, and
a double bogey from a greenside
bunker on the sixth hole left him
at 1 under on his round.
Woods said he adjusted his aim
later in the round after noticing
that playing partners Steve
Stricker and David Lingmerth were
missing putts on the high side of
the hole.
I lowered my line just a touch,
maybe half a ball here and there,
and it seemed to pay off, he said.
Woods nished with three
straight birdies, making bending
putts of 18 and 19 feet on the nal
two holes.
Just trying to get back to 3
(under), and we just happened to
pull off a hat trick coming home,
he said.

MUSEUM GOTTA SEE UM
By Susan Cohn
DAILY JOURNAL
SENIOR CORRESPONDENT
ARTIST CORINNE WHITAKER
CHOS EN FOR CALIFORNIA
CONTEMPORARY ART SHOW IN
S ACRAMENTO. The Peninsula
Museum of Art invites the public to
see the work of Corinne Whitaker,
who was recently chosen to represent
District 13 in the California
Contemporary
Art
Show
in
Sacramento. State Sen. Jerry Hill, DSan Mateo, who represents most of
San Mateo County and northern Santa
Clara County, made the selection.
Whitaker, whose studio is in Foster
City, has worked in digital imaging
for over 34 years. In 1994 she set up
the Digital Giraffe, a monthly online
art journal which she edits, publishes,
programs and designs. Her works,
which have been exhibited all over the
world, in more than 300 group and
solo shows, range from digital painting on aluminum to 3-D printed sculp-
ture in high-tech polymer hand-painted in 22 karat gold leaf. Whitakers
work is on view at the Peninsula
Museum of Art, 1777 California Drive,
Burlingame, through Aug. 23. For
more information call 692-2101 or

AB OUT THE CALIFORNIA
CONTEMPORARY ART SHOW. In
1997, the California State Senate initiated a program to celebrate contemporary California art. Every two years,
state senators are asked to select an
artist whom they feel best represents
their district. The result is a snapshot
of the artwork being produced across
the state by people of all ages and
backgrounds, and reflects an important collaborative effort between senators and California artists. The artists
and their works reveal Californias
rich diversity and culture, and its spectacular natural beauty. The pieces in
this years collection run the gamut in
substance and style from oil, acrylic
and watercolor, to bronze and cast and
carved glass, to glitter and resin and
digital lenticular images. The 2015-16
show is displayed in the two
Legislative Caucus rooms behind the
Senate Chamber, and will remain up
through September 2016. The exhibit
is open to the public by appointment.

Everyone loves paper airplanes. We
turn into test pilots just by folding

how fast they will go or how far they
will fly, and we even try to do aerobatics with them. One of the top paper

GENISYS
Continued from page 16
are curiously stuck between their pre-digital
1980s origins and a dystopian vision of
machines rule over the planet.
However many Terminators are unveiled,
the mechanical heart and soul of the series
will always be Arnold Schwarzeneggers T800. Hes the android version of earlier,
cast-aside operating systems: a Game Boy
with a gun. Im old, not obsolete, he says
in Genisys.
And that, surprisingly, is the case.
Schwarzeneggers return to his most iconic
role (he was absent in the forgettable 2009
entry Terminator Salvation while governor) provides much of the appeal of this
otherwise purposeless redo.
Not only does his leather jacket-clad hulk
continually best newer, better Terminators,
in Genisys the 67-year-old successfully
wrestles a synthetic version of his younger,
body-building self. Aging is a hard fact of
life, even for the machines sent from the
future to kill us.
Five films in, Genisys works very hard
to explain its existence. Screenwriters Laeta
Kalogridis and Patrick Lussier begin in
2029, long after Skynet robots destroyed
most of humanity in Judgment Day. John
Conner (Jason Clarke) is leading a promising if grim revolution when the fight begins
hopping through time.
To rescue Johns mother, Sarah Conner,
John sends his loyal soldier Kyle Reese (Jai
Courtney) to 1984. But the machines are
aware of the plot, and after Reese lands with
a thud in a Los Angeles back alley, the
familiar T-1000 of Terminator 2 (he of liquid metal, played here by Byung-hun Lee) is
just around the corner.
Sarah (Emilia Clarke) is more the one
doing the rescuing, though. With
Schwarzeneggers Terminator in tow
(Pops she calls her longtime cyborg protector), she informs Reese of a very different
mission than the one he was expecting.
WEEKEND JOURNAL
An alternate timeline, caused by the crisscrossing time travel, is offered up for why
many of the events of previous
Terminator films often in the same
locations, with the same catch phrases
are repeated. It makes for a cautionary tale:
Hand reboot-crazy Hollywood a plot device
like a time machine and the most advisable
course of action is to run for cover.
The movies may be acquiring another
potentially dangerous tool: the means to
clone. Terminator Genisys may well be
most remembered for the digital cameo of a
young Schwarzenegger. Granted, monosyllabic blocks of wood are likely easier to
photocopy than other actors. But the digital
rendering is nevertheless impressive.
Sarah, Reese and the T-800 travel ahead to
2017 to prevent Judgment Day, postponed
(through a great deal of illogical, belabored
description) from its original 1997 date.
The film tries to claw its way into the present, and, hopefully, into a future trilogy.
Linda Hamilton devotees will likely never
accept another in the role. But Clarke, the
ascendant dragon mother of Game of
Thrones, gives the film enough grit and a
touch of depth.
But as Taylor leads the movie from set
piece to set piece, the time-traveling thread
of Terminator begins to unravel and its
welcome playful tone (Genisys is often
enjoyably ludicrous) bleeds into ill-advised
self-parody.
The Terminator films are about a ceaseless, impossible quest to close the
Pandoras box of technology before it ruins
us. But Genisys is too busy remixing franchise favorites and setting up further sequels
to devote much attention to the sci-fi anxieties that spurred it in the first place. As
Alex Garlands recent Ex Machina
showed, those are questions worth rebooting.
Terminator Genisys, a Paramount
Pictures release, is rated PG-13 by the
Motion Picture Association of America for
intense sequences of sci-fi violence and
gunplay throughout, partial nudity and brief
strong language. Running time: 125 minutes. Two stars out of four.
CLARKE
Continued from page 16
was seemingly plucked out of the ether to
star as Daenerys Targaryen on HBOs wildly
popular Game of Thrones. Just a few years
later, she was chosen to make the leap to a
summer blockbuster as Sarah Connor, one of
actions most iconic heroines, in
Terminator Genisys, out Wednesday.
The ebullient Clarke, who nearly jumped
out of her seat to answer questions in a recent
interview, is the first to stress that shes
lucky to have reached these heights by age
28. But her path to playing some of the big
and small screens most powerful women
wasnt exactly laid out before her.
Though Clarke is not from a royal
Hollywood bloodline, she likes to say that
she grew up backstage at the theaters of
London, where her father was a sound designer. Clarke has also said she wanted to act
since she was 3 years old, although that
makes her laugh now.
It was one of the first interviews Id ever
done and it was like, pick a number, any
number, and I was like, Lets go with 3.
Sure. Why not? Basically I just wanted to
say from very young. I just cant even think
of a time in my life where I didnt want to be
an actor, she said.
After hearing her prattle on for years about
acting ambitions, her parents trotted her out
to look at a drama school when she was 11.
Clarke was terrified.
She saw the other kids in the school,
hyper serious and driven, and decided she
wanted to stay with her regular studies, work
hard and get good grades, just in case.
If she still wanted to be a part of that world
when she turned 18, she would go to drama
school.
It turns out, she did. After a couple of terrible tries, she got on a waiting list at the
Drama School of London. When someone
dropped out, she got in. But even upon graduation, there were only waitressing and
other non-acting jobs available things
she swears she was really, genuinely awful
at.
After scoring a few minor television roles
the year after graduating, Clarke got Game

THE DAILY JOURNAL
of Thrones in 2010 and instantly became a
fan favorite as the Mother of Dragons. Shes
now one of only a handful of original cast
members whose characters are still alive on
the show.
Then in late 2013, Alan Taylor, who had
directed Clarke in Game of Thrones, cast
her as Sarah in Genisys, the fifth film in
the James Cameron-created series.
She could barely wait to get started, and
dragged co-star Jai Courtney to some acting
classes far before production began so that
they could begin to workshop their characters. On set, when she wasnt working to
keep up with her burly male co-stars, including Arnold Schwarzenegger, she was in
weapons training, stunt training, or just
working out.
Theres such authority in this young
woman coupled with this tremendous vulnerability, said Taylor. You look at those eyes
and you kind of want to take care of her at the
same time that shes barking orders at you
and scaring you.
This Sarah Connor is a different take on
the character Linda Hamilton originated 31
years ago. Shes a warrior from the start, living out a predetermined destiny to give birth
to the leader of an eventual revolution. But
shes dismayed by the lack of choices in her
life which is not dissimilar to Clarkes
Game of Thrones queen, or even her own
experiences.
Clarke has seen how the trajectory of fame
can easily get out of hand. While there are
wonderful plusses, she said, there are also
the day-to-day realities and pressures and
the fact that the choices that you make may
reverberate with a 13-year-old girl reading a
magazine about your life.
It also helps when you can exist somewhat
under the radar in your daily life. Without her
long, blonde Game of Thrones wig, Clarke
gets to have it both ways.
Ive been incredibly lucky in that Im
unrecognizable without my wig, said the
actress, who lives in London. People dont
clock me at all. On one level on a day-to-day
basis its brilliant because I live a ridiculously boring, normal life when Im not filming.
Up next, Clarke is about to start work on
an adaptation of JoJo Moyes book Me
Before You and will be back for a sixth season of Thrones in no time.

CALTRAIN
Continued from page 1
Now unable to claim exemption
from the California Environmental
Quality Act, Caltrain must continue to
litigate against opponents such as the
city of Atherton that filed a lawsuit
claiming the agencys environmental
impact report was incomplete.
Atherton,
the
Transportation
Solutions Defense and Education Fund
along with the Community Coalition
on High-Speed Rail lodged the complaint against Caltrain in San Mateo
County Superior Court in February.
The suit asks the court to order the
Peninsula Corridor Joint Powers
Board, which runs Caltrain, to revise
its environmental impact report that
was finalized and certified in January.
The report covers Caltrains
Modernization Program, a nearly $1.5
billion system overhaul aimed at
accounting for increasing ridership,
improving air quality and electrifying
the tracks that could be shared with
high-speed rail. Opponents argue the
local project aimed at being 75 percent
complete by 2020 is inextricably
linked to the states controversial
high-speed rail project, particularly as
the costly project is slated to receive
about $600 million from the
California High-Speed Rail Authority.
The groups allege Caltrains environmental review is inadequate, as it
does not consider the potential
impacts high-speed rail would bring to
the Peninsula.
The biggest single thing is the tie
with high-speed rail and the fact that
Caltrain just refused to address whats
going to be the cumulative impact,
said Stuart Flashman, an attorney representing the groups in their suit
against the JPB. They need to disclose what it is going to do when you
have both high-speed rail and Caltrain
KELLEY
Continued from page 1
to court Aug. 21, according to prosecutors.
Kelley decided he did not want to
proceed with trial after Judge Jonathan
Karesh ruled Wednesday that a confession he made would be admissible in
court.
Neither Kelley nor his attorney Lisa
Maguire stated his reasons for deciding
to forgo trial, according to prosecutors.
running down the Peninsula. Whats it
going to mean?
Caltrain spokeswoman Jayme
Ackemann said the federal decision
does not have a significant impact
other than allowing the lawsuit to proceed. As the agency underwent a thorough environmental review and electrifying the tracks has benefits to
increasing capacity regardless of
whether high-speed rail is in the picture, Caltrain is prepared to defend its
project in court, Ackemann said.
We have a certified EIR document
which includes mitigation to which we
remain committed to fulfilling,
Ackemann said. We will defend ourselves in the litigation ... because we
feel we have a complete and fully compliant environmental document and we
believe well be successful in the outcome of that.
If the STB decided it had jurisdiction
over Caltrains project, it would have
provided an extra layer of protection
for the transit agency, Ackemann said.
The lawsuit also alleges Caltrains
environmental report didnt adequately
study the projects impact on traffic,
station configurations, tree removal
and electricity demands.
Gary Patton, an attorney working
with the Community Coalition on
High-Speed Rail, said the STBs decision affirmed the commuter system is
Sheriffs investigators arrested
Kelly in August 2012 after the county
crime lab reran DNA from fluids recovered from the crime scene and hit on

who had lived in Oregon and

the time of Thurs death and, nearly a
decade later, in 1995, was convicted of
rape in Humboldt County.

subject to state regulations. While
many of the groups do not inherently
disagree with the concept of highspeed rail, they worry its trying to circumvent procedures intended to support the environment and communities
through which it runs.
Having the STB very promptly say
look, youre part of the state system
here, youre part of the state laws, its
just very happy news, Patton said.
This makes a difference in the environmental review. Because if this is a
project that is part of a larger project
(high-speed rail, ) the California
Environmental Quality Act is very
clear and the technical term is piecemeal, you cant break a project up into
bite-size pieces and say there arent as
many environmental impacts.
Furthermore, if high-speed rail were
to share the blended track system
between San Jose and San Francisco,
Patton said he fears it could disrupt
local service.
Ackemann contends high-speed rail
will have its own, separate environmental review process and the litigation is a detriment to Caltrains plans
to expand its highly-demanded service
for local commuters.
Were a public agency and any
defense of litigation that we have to do
is paid for by taxpayer dollars which
means there are impacts to everything
from our operations to our maintenance budgets when we have to go
through an expensive litigation battle, Ackemann said. In addition,
anything that could potentially delay
the electrification project presents real
challenges for riders because we are
already operating at capacity and we
have to implement electrification if
were going to be able to accommodate

Lindblom, a San Bruno native, said she
takes pride in being a vendor, because she
remembers going to local block parties on
Independence Day as a child where fireworks
shows were prominently featured.
Its a lot of fun, she said. Its a lot of
hard work, but it pays off.
She said she is working close to 12 hours
a day at the stand over the week leading up
to the Fourth of July.
In San Bruno, only safe and sane fireworks are allowed to be lit between noon
and 10 p.m. until Friday, July 3, and from
noon until midnight on Saturday, July 4.
All fireworks are prohibited in San Bruno
parks and on school property.
Last year, the city earned about $57,000
in fireworks sales. Each booth has to pay a

The shared property tax funding base is
approximately 1 percent of the countys
property assessment roll and will thus
increase to $1.77 billion.
Approximately 45 percent of revenue is
allocated to schools within the county; 22
percent to the county; 17 percent to cities;
9 percent to special districts; and 7 percent
to former redevelopment agencies.
The countys share will be approximate-

fee to cover the citys expenses during the
season, which goes to covering the costs of
workers in the police and fire departments,
as well as public works, according to
Bonner.
Lindblom said her stand has had to mark
up each pack of fireworks by a few dollars to
cover the additional fee, which she feared
might drive away customers initially, but it
has had little impact on sales.
In Pacifica, legal fireworks are allowed at
Linda Mar Beach, north of the Taco Bell,
and in the parking lot at South Rockaway
Beach.
Those who sell fireworks without authorization or are caught lighting them outside
of allowed hours or possessing dangerous
fireworks face a $1,000 fine, according to
city resolutions in Pacifica and San Bruno.
Revelers who enjoy celebrating their holiday with fireworks should be especially
careful, according to a statement by the San
Mateo County Sheriffs Office, considering
the dangerous mix of explosives and arid
conditions.
Due to our current drought, there is an
increase in dry vegetation, sheriffs
Deputy Salvador Zuno said in the statement.
The risk of starting fires and damaging
property is very high.
Law enforcement will be on especially
high alert because of fireworks, according
to the statement.
Illegal fireworks and unsafe discharge of
firearms are dangerous and illegal in San
Mateo County, said Zuno. The Sheriffs
Office will be deploying resources to specifically target and enforce these violations.
Residents should keep a watchful eye on
their pets during the holiday weekend,
because fireworks can frighten animals and
potentially cause them to try to run away,
according to the Sheriffs Office.
Pets should be kept inside to reduce the
risk of them getting injured or running
loose, according to the report.
Fire officials stressed the importance of
ensuring those who celebrate with fireworks should be as safe as possible, even
when lighting the legal variety, which are
typically considered more safe.
So many people dont realize the dangers
associated with fireworks, said Luis Da
Silva, South San Francisco fire marshal, in
a prepared statement. Not only do thousands of people get injured every year, but
also fires happen.
Safe and sane fireworks are considered
fountains, sparklers, wheels, smoke and
snake items, strobes, ground spinners,
novelty fireworks that do not travel, snappers and caps, among others.
Adults must supervise children using fireworks, according to the San Bruno city ordinance.
San Bruno had considered a ballot measure
to stop selling fireworks in 2005, but it was
shot down by voters.
To report those in San Bruno illegally
using fireworks over the Fourth of July
weekend call 616-7100.
ly $389 million, Church wrote.
The property assessment roll is composed
of two sections, the secured roll and the
unsecured roll. When combined, the two
sections are referred to as the combined roll.
The secured roll represents nearly 95 percent of the total assessment roll and
includes 220,642 commercial and residential real properties.
This year, the secured roll increased by
$12.1 billion, or 7.8 percent over 2014-15,
reflecting a vibrant economic environment,
Church wrote.
The growth in the secured roll is primarily due to increased values in real estate; new
construction; and declining foreclosures
among other factors.
Our surging local economy, strong job
market and the lowest unemployment rate in
the state at 3.3 percent, have produced
increased demand for housing and commercial space. This coupled with a low inventory, has driven sales prices and rental rates
upwards. In short, real estate is a precious
commodity in San Mateo County, Church
wrote.
The number of homeowners in property
tax relief programs have also dropped.
The number of residential properties qualifying for the Proposition 8/Decline in
Value Program has dropped significantly
from 34,700 properties in FY 2011-12 to
7,960 properties in FY 2015-16. On the
commercial side, only 260 properties
remain in the program from a high of 604
properties in 2012, Church wrote.
Major projects in the county, those
greater than 80,000 square feet, account for
at least 7.5 million square feet of new
improvements which will come to market in
2015. Demand for offices and apartments
and condominiums appear to be key drivers
of new development, Church wrote.
In 2014, Google acquired a campus in
Redwood City for $585 million and is anticipating a major expansion. Facebook
expanded its recent acquisition in Menlo
Park and Gilead is building a biopharmaceutical campus in Foster City. Genentech continues the expansion of its campus in South
San Francisco, Church wrote.
