Team devoted to people with mental illness


By Bill Silverfarb
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

To assist individuals with serious mental illness who have fallen


through the cracks, a Health
System team has been formed to
help improve their quality of life.
The Behavioral Health and

Recovery
Services Assisted
Outpatient Treatment (AOT) is
now operating and open to taking
referrals.
AOT is the local implementation of the Assisted Outpatient
Treatment Demonstration Project
Act of 2002, more commonly
referred to as Lauras Law. The San

Mateo
County
Board
of
Supervisors voted unanimously in
June 2015 to enact the law on a
one-year trial.
The team is being led by Terry
Wilcox-Rittgers, clinical services
manager
at
the
countys
Behavioral Health and Recovery
Services.

SERRA OPENER GOES SOUTH

The team just started accepting


referrals July 1, Wilcox-Rittgers
said.
The first week we didnt get any
calls, he said.
But since, the team has received
more than 40 calls and four individuals have been enrolled in the
program, he said.

Many of the other referrals,


although they did not meet Lauras
Law criteria, were linked to other
services in the county that may
benefit them, Wilcox-Rittgers
said.

School district eyes improvements


South San Francisco officials seek projects to fund with shared $1M
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

South San Francisco school


officials are attempting to identify
projects to finance with $1 million shared by city officials designated for benefiting local residents.
Patrick Lucy, president of the
South San Francisco Unified
School District Board of Trustees,
suggested the funds could be used
to improve athletic fields on
school property with the intent of
eventually making the facilities
available for community use.
Trustees discussed the issue dur-

ing a meeting Thursday, Aug. 18,


and though no decision was made,
Lucy said he would like the money
to serve as many South San
Francisco residents as possible.
We are going to look at all the
possibilities and whatever decision we make will benefit the
schools and the community, he
said.
The South San Francisco City
Council agreed in March to share
with the local school district
money available through a development agreement offered by
Sares Regis as part of an approval
to build 272 apartments and condominiums downtown.

City and school officials met in


the wake of the councils decision
to discuss targets for the funds set
aside for projects improving the
quality of life in South San
Francisco.
Beyond athletic fields, officials
also considered using the money
to contribute toward paying for
after-school programs, installing
lighting outside campuses, renovating the pool at Orange Park and
a variety of other initiatives.

Mussels disappearing from New


England waters, scientists say
PORTLAND, Maine New England
is running out of mussels.
The Gulf of Maines once strong
population of wild blue mussels is disappearing, scientists say. A study led
by marine ecologists at the University
of California at Irvine found the numbers along the gulf coastline have
declined by more than 60 percent over
the last 40 years.
Once covering as much as two-thirds
of the gulfs intertidal zone, mussels
now cover less than 15 percent.
It would be like losing a forest,
said biologist Cascade Sorte, who with
her colleagues at the university conducted the study and recently published
their findings in the Global Change
Biology journal.
The Gulf of Maine stretches from
Cape Cod to Canada and is a key
marine environment and important to
commercial fishing. Blue mussels are
used in seafood dishes and worth millions to the economy of some New
England states, but are also important
in moving bacteria and toxins out of
the water.
Its so disheartening to see it (the
loss) in our marine habitats. Were losing the habitats they create, she said.
Disheartening, and also sometimes a
smelly nuisance. Thousands of dead
mussels washed up last week on the
shores of Long Island, New York.

Money makes it easier to be green


Burlingame environmental groups seeking sustainability projects to fund
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

A recent award of green bills will help pay


for the greening of Burlingame.
The Citizens Environmental Council of
Burlingame received $16,000 for placing in
a state competition recognizing cities for
reducing their carbon footprint, and the
community organization is seeking suggestions for spending the money.
The environmental council will hold a
meeting next month designed to receive
suggestions from residents and local groups
interested in collaborating toward using a
portion of the money to improve the citys
sustainability.
Michael McCord, chair of the environmental council, said the organization is
open to hearing a wide variety of ideas
regarding potential uses of the funds awarded by the Cool California challenge.
We think the thing to do is open it up to
the community and see what kind of ideas
people have, he said.
Burlingame placed third in the competition organized by Energy Upgrade
California, which featured 22 cities tracking
and reporting various energy saving efforts
completed by residents and city officials.
The prize money was designated to finance a
sustainability initiative selected by the
city.
McCord said the $16,000 is likely inadequate to finance a large project, so organization members opted to seek partnership

opportunities with other community foundations to stretch the funds as far as possible.
We can do several projects up to a few
thousand dollars, he said. We would rather
do several smaller projects.
Helping install energy upgrades at the
home of a local nonprofit organization to
lower the buildings carbon footprint and
offer cost savings or helping plant a
drought-resistant garden at a Burlingame
church are a couple examples of the types of
projects the environmental council could
help finance, said McCord.
But ultimately, he said he hoped the community would come to the environmental
council with their own set of suggestions.
We are excited to consider some new
ideas and some new projects, he said.
The environmental council is a community organization dedicated to improving
Burlingames sustainability, hosting periodic public meetings and discussions
designed to implement a variety of green
initiatives, said McCord.
The organization has operated on a shoestring budget for years, and the money
awarded as a result of the challenge is the
largest influx of funds the environmental
council has ever received, McCord said.
He said it is refreshing for members of the
environmental council to be awarded
enough money to be able to invest it back
into the local community.
It changes our point of view, he said.
Plans exist to set aside a portion of the

money to address ongoing costs for the


environmental council, but much of it will
be paid out to worthy projects proposed by
the community, he said.
The biggest project currently funded by
the environmental council is a few thousand
dollars doled out in scholarships to graduates of Burlingame High School who have
done work in environmental sciences, said
McCord.
We intend to continue doing that, he
said, of the scholarship. We like doing
that.
Following the project proposal meeting
Saturday, Sept. 17, McCord said he expects
the environmental council will spend the
subsequent couple months considering their
pitches before likely allocating funds after
the new year.
But when possible, he said there is interest in offering the money to the community
immediately.
If we can start coming up with a budget
for some of these projects we like, well get
them underway as soon as possible, he
said.
Looking toward the discussion for use of
the funds, McCord said he hoped there would
be significant community interest in the
opportunity to use the money for creative
and sustainable projects.
We hope we get a few dozen people there
and a few interesting ideas, he said.
The Citizens Env ironmental Council of
Burlingame will meet 9:30 a.m., Saturday,
Sept. 17, in the Lane room of the library,
480 Primrose Road,

Visitor misbehavior abounds as parks agency turns 100


By Matthew Brown
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

YELLOWSTONE
NATIONAL
PARK, Wyo. Tourist John
Gleason crept through the grass,
four small children close behind,
inching toward a bull elk with
antlers like small trees at the edge
of a meadow in Yellowstone
National Park.
Theyre going to give me a heart
attack, said Gleasons mother-inlaw, Barbara Henry, as the group
came within about a dozen yards of
the massive animal.

Local briefs
Sheriffs Office investigates
mishandled sexual
misconduct case
The San Mateo County Sheriffs
Office has started a formal administrative investigation into the
mishandling of an incident
involving a Millbrae teacher and
student.
According to sheriffs officials,
two reports of an alleged sexual
relationship between a teacher and
an underage female student were
reported last year and not investigated as expected.
Sheriffs officials said the investigation was reviewed once in
October 2015 and once in
February of this year, however,
they determined it was not conducted in a timely manner.
San Mateo County Sheriff
Carlos Bolanos said in a statement, Im disappointed the
investigation was not completed
in a timely manner and it does not
reflect the level of service we rou-

harassment and other visitor misbehavior, according to the records


obtained through a Freedom of
Information Act request.
In July alone, law enforcement
rangers handled more than 11,000
incidents at the 10 most visited
national parks.
In Yellowstone, rangers are
recording more wildlife violations, more people treading on
sensitive thermal areas and more
camping in off-limit areas. The
rule-breaking puts visitors in
harms way and can damage
resources and displace wildlife,

officials said.
Often the incidents go unaddressed, such as when Gleason and
the children approached the bull
elk with no park personnel
around. Gleason said he was
maybe too close but felt comfortable in the situation as an
experienced hunter whos spent
lots of time outdoors.
These transgressions add to
rangers growing workload that
includes traffic violations, searches for missing hikers and pets run-

The elks ears then pricked up,


and it eyed the children and
Washington state man before
leaping up a hillside. Other
tourists likewise ignoring rules
to keep 25 yards from wildlife
picked up the pursuit, snapping
pictures as they pressed forward
and forced the animal into headlong retreat.
Record visitor numbers at the
nations first national park have
transformed its annual summer
rush into a sometimes dangerous
frenzy, with selfie-taking tourists
routinely breaking park rules and

getting too close to Yellowstones


storied elk herds, grizzly bears,
wolves and bison.
Law
enforcement
records
obtained by The Associated Press
suggest such problems are on the
rise at the park, offering a stark
illustration of the pressures facing
some of Americas most treasured
lands as the National Park Service

Arriving officers tried to take
the suspect into custody but he
allegedly resisted, prompting officers to use a Taser, which had no
effect, Montiel said.
The suspect produced a knife,
held it overhead and charged at the
officer, who opened fire.
The suspect suffered life-threatening injuries and was transported

Montiel.
Only one officer was involved in
the shooting. No officers were

AMMAN, Jordan The U.S.


will reach its target this week of
taking in 10, 000 Syrian war
refugees in a year-old resettlement
program, the U.S. ambassador to
Jordan said Sunday, after meeting
families headed to California and
Virginia.
The resettlement program has
emerged as an issue in the U.S.
presidential campaign, with
Republican nominee Donald
Trump alleging displaced Syrians
pose a potential security threat.
Alice Wells, the U.S. ambassador to Jordan, said Sunday that
keeping Americans safe and taking in some of the worlds most

vulnerable people are not mutually


exclusive.
Refugees are the most thoroughly screened category of travelers to the United States, and
Syrian refugees are subject to even
greater scrutiny, she said.
Wells said the target of resettling 10,000 Syrian refugees in
the U.S. in the 2016 fiscal year
will be reached Monday, as several
hundred Syrians depart from
Jordan over 24 hours.
The Jouriyeh family, which
attended Sundays short ceremony,
is headed to San Diego,
California.
Nadim Fawzi Jouriyeh, 49, a former construction worker from the
war-ravaged Syrian city of Homs,
said he feels fear and joy, fear of
the unknown and our new lives,
but great joy for our childrens
lives and future.
Jouriyeh, who suffers from heart
problems, will be traveling with
his wife, Rajaa, 42, and their four
children. Their oldest son, 14-

See 100, Page 28

year-old Mohammed, said he is


eager to sign up for school in San
Diego and hopes to study medicine
one day.
The resettlement program focuses on the most vulnerable
refugees, including those who
were subjected to violence or torture or are sick.
Close to 5 million Syrians have
fled civil war since 2011. Most
struggle to survive in tough conditions in neighboring countries,
including Jordan, which hosts
close to 660,000 Syrian refugees.
Only a small percentage of
Syrian refugees have been resettled to third countries. Instead,
donor countries are trying to
invest more in job creation and
education for refugees in regional
host countries to encourage them
to stay there instead of moving
onward, including to Europe.
Wells said the U.S. has taken in
more refugees from around the
world over the years than all other
nations combined.

Scams loom as millions donated after Orlando


By Jeff Donn
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

The more than 430 fundraisers


posted on the GoFundMe website
after the mass shooting at a gay
nightclub in Orlando have
exposed weaknesses inherent in
these popular do-it-yourself charity campaigns: waste, questionable
intentions and little oversight.
The fundraisers an average of
more than four for each of the 49
killed and 53 wounded include
travelers asking for cash, a practitioner of ancient healing, a personal safety instructor who sells
quick loaders for assault rifles, and

even convicted identity impostors.


There was a deluge, said Holly
Salmons, president of the Better
Business Bureau for Central
Florida. It was almost impossible for us or anyone else to be able
to vet.
The crowdfunding sites operate
outside traditional charitable circles and often beyond the reach of
government regulation. Appeals
can be created in minutes by
almost anyone and shared around
the world.
The
officially
sanctioned
Equality Florida campaign raised
more than $7 million via

GoFundMe, but another $1.3 million went to smaller appeals


mostly set up by people with little
or no charity experience.
The Associated Press examined
30 campaigns chosen from
throughout the lengthy list produced by a GoFundMe search for
Orlando shootings. Within a
month of the June 12 shootings,
they had raised more than
$265,000.
Half said donations would be
used for legitimate-sounding purposes: to cover funeral, medical
and other costs. Some campaign
organizers were relatives of the
dead or wounded. A high school

basketball coach raised $15,297


for the family of Akyra Murray, a
star player who had just graduated
before dying in the attack.
But most campaigns lacked key
details, such as exactly what the
donations would cover or even
who was asking for them. Only
nine of the 30 organizers agreed to
interviews.
One man wanted money for travel costs to Orlando to shoot independent news video. He hadnt
raised anything two months later.
Another organizer raised just $25
for travel money to hold a community healing ceremony inspired
by ancient shamanic rituals. She

dropped that plan in favor of sending painted rocks with an inspiring word of support.

Dallas police squelch critics, questions about sniper attack


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

DALLAS The day after five


Dallas officers were killed by a
sniper, the citys police chief
described the men as guardians
of democracy, praising them for
protecting the freedom to protest
at a large demonstration against
police brutality.
President Barack Obama later

eulogized the slain officers, saying they died while defending


essential constitutional rights.
But nearly two months after the
shootings, Dallas police have
moved to silence critics and
squelch lingering questions about
the attack. Officers in riot gear
have been told to ticket protesters
who block or disrupt traffic, and
Police Chief David Brown has

refused to meet with demonstrators unless they agree to end their


marches through downtown,
which he says pose a threat.
Authorities have also refused to
release even the most basic information about the slayings, including any details about the weapons
used, the autopsy findings and ballistics tests that could establish
whether any officers were hit by

friendly fire. Police have indicated


that such information could be
withheld almost indefinitely.
In addition, the police departments most vocal, visible critic
has been arrested multiple times in
the last month on warrants that
include unpaid traffic tickets and
attempts to revoke his probation
from a 2009 felony. On Friday,
Dominique Alexander was ordered

to prison.
Why all of a sudden are we the
target? asked Damon Crenshaw,
vice president of the Next
Generation Action Network,
which organized the July 7
protest. Were not protesting
because were mad at them. Were
protesting because the problems
still exist and they wont talk to
us.

Women fight for right


to go topless in public
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LOS ANGELES A group of about 50


women and men are walking topless in the
oceanside Los Angeles neighborhood of
Venice to demand that females get the same
legal right as males to walk bare-chested in
public.
The protesters participated Sunday in the
neighborhoods annual Go Topless march,
one of several pro-topless marches planned
for around the nation. The march in Venice
was organized by gotopless.org, a group
that calls for equal rights to go topless for

women and men.


The marchers walked behind a giant
inflatable pink breast that had the phrase
equal topless rights written on it. One
marcher carried a sign that said: My Body
Is Not A Crime.
Were working toward freeing womens
nipples and obtaining equal gender topless
rights that are enforced worldwide,
Beatrice Charles, a GoTopless spokeswoman said.
The protesters were countered at the start
of the march by a group against allowing
women to go topless in public.

Clinton invokes fathers memory to hit Trump


By Catherine Lucey
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WARREN, Mich. Hillary


Clinton has landed on a very personal counterpunch to what she
says is Donald Trumps checkered
business past: her dad.
As the Democratic presidential
nominee works to undercut
Trumps economic record and promote her plans for small businesses, she is invoking memories of
her late fathers Chicago drapery
business. Recalling Hugh Rodham
hard at work making and printing
curtains for hotels and office
buildings, Clinton argues that he
would have been stiffed in a deal
with the celebrity businessman.
He expected to be paid when he
showed up, Clinton said recently
during an event in Warren,
Michigan. He did the work. He
paid for the supplies and the labor
he often hired to help him on big
jobs. I cant imagine what would

have happened to my father and


his business if he had gotten a
contract from Trump.
Clinton hopes to remind voters
that despite her years in public life
that have left her a multimillionaire, she comes from a middleclass background and understands
the life of a small-business owner.
She also wants to contrast her
biography with that of Trump,
who was raised by a successful real
estate developer and has drawn
criticism for his treatment of
small businesses during his career.
Trump has promoted his business record as a key qualification
for the White House. But Trump
casinos failed on several occasions. When the Taj Mahal casino
in Atlantic City, New Jersey went
bankrupt in the early 1990s, some
contractors who worked on the
property went under because
Trumps company didnt pay what
they were owed, according to
interviews with the Associated

Press.
In a statement
to
the AP,
Clinton said her
fathers business gave her a
sense
of
res p o n s i b i l i ty, adding that
Hillary Clinton she was living
proof that a
successful small business is at the
core of the basic bargain in
America, that if you work hard and
do your part, you can make your
own dreams and those of your children a reality.
Clinton has been pitching her
plans to support small businesses
and to make it easier to start a
company. On a conference call
with small-business owners last
week, she proposed a new tax
deduction for small businesses and
offered federal incentives to
encourage state and local governments to streamline regulations.

While Clinton has spoken of her


father throughout the campaign,
the recent recollections have been
more detailed and intimate. Clinton
tends to speak sparingly about her
family while campaigning and
when she does, it is typically to
make a broader point. She has referenced her grandfathers work in a
factory in Scranton, Pennsylvania,
and her mothers troubled childhood. Clinton has also spoken of
her granddaughter as an example of
the future generation she is fighting for.
Mo Elleithee, who worked for
Clintons 2008 presidential bid,
said that reminiscing about her
familys business could put
Clinton in a different light with
voters. Elleithee, now executive
director of the Institute of Politics
and Public Service at Georgetown
University, noted that shes
never done a very good job of
talking about herself.

Trump stand-ins struggle to


speak for, defend nominee
By Laurie Kellman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Donald Trump isnt


making it easy for top supporters and advisers, from his running mate on down, to
defend him or explain some campaign positions.
Across the Sunday news shows, a parade
of Trump stand-ins, led by vice presidential
nominee Mike Pence, couldnt say whether
Trump was sticking with or changing a central promise to boot the roughly 11 million
people living in the U.S. illegally, with the
help of a deportation force. And they didnt bother defending his initial response
Saturday to the killing of a mother as she
walked her baby on a Chicago street.
Questioned on whether its a problem that
the GOP presidential nominee has left key
details on immigration policy unclear so
late in the election, Republican National
Committee Chairman Reince Priebus
demurred: I just dont speak for Donald
Trump.
It was a striking look at Trumps leadership of a team he had said would help drive
him to victory in the Nov. 8 election.
The very purpose of surrogates is to speak
for and back up their presidential nominee.
But Team Trump has struggled to do so even
as they stayed tightly together on the
details they know: Trump will issue more
details on the immigration plan soon, the
policy will be humane and despite his clear
wavering, hes been consistent on the
issue. Any discussion of inconsistencies or
potentially unpresidential tweeting, Pence
and others suggested, reflected media focus
on the wrong issue.
The right issue, they said, was whether
Democrat Hillary Clinton crossed ethical
lines during her tenure as secretary of state
by talking with people outside the government who had contributed to her familys
philanthropy foundation. Priebus counterpart at the Democratic National Committee,
Donna Brazile, said theres no evidence of
that. Clinton on Sunday was raising campaign money in the Hamptons, a vacation

spot for the wealthy on


Long Island.
Asked whether the
deportation force proposal Trump laid out in
November is still in
place, Pence replied:
Well, what you heard
him describe there, in his
plainspoken,
Donald Trump usual
American way, was a
mechanism, not a policy.
Added Trumps campaign manager,
Kellyanne Conway: The softening is more
approach than policy, adding that on
immigration, Trump wants to find a fair
and humane way.
He is not talking about a deportation
force, she observed.
The Indiana governor, Conway and other
surrogates said the main tenets of Trumps
immigration plan still will include building
a wall along the southern U.S. border and
making Mexico pay for it, no path to legalization or citizenship for people here illegally and stronger border enforcement.
Pence also did not answer whether the campaign believes, as Trump has said, that children born to people who are in the U.S. illegally are not U.S. citizens. That, he said,
is a subject for the future.
Native-born children of immigrants, even
those living illegally in the U.S., have
been automatically considered American
citizens since the adoption of the 14th
Amendment in 1868.
Trump has focused lately on deporting
people who are in the U.S. illegally and
who have committed crimes. But who Trump
considers a criminal remained unclear
Sunday.
Those are the things that Donald Trump
is going to answer, Priebus said.
Other Trump stand-ins, including New
Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, spoke similarly.
Recent polls indicate Clinton is ahead in
some of the most competitive and pivotal
states. The first presidential debate is set for
Sept. 26.

Expires 9/30/16

father moved to Chicago after


graduating from college. There he
worked as a traveling salesman
before enlisting in the Navy during World War II, Clinton writes in
Living History. When he
returned from the war, he set up a
drapery fabric business in
Chicago, called Rodrik Fabrics,
and later started a print plant on
the citys north side.
Rodham largely worked alone,
but Clinton writes that she and her
brothers helped when they were
old enough. The business did well
enough for Rodham to buy a house
in the leafy suburb of Park Ridge,
where he and wife, Dorothy, raised
Clinton and her two brothers.
By all accounts, Rodham was a
stern man, but he is also credited
with instilling his daughters
powerful work ethic and encouraging her ambition. Clintons childhood friend Betsy Ebeling said
Rodham could be gruff but he
could be very loving.

Turkish president vows to destroy terrorists


Turkey has sent tanks across the Syrian border following weeks of deadly attacks
By Dusan Stojanovic
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ISTANBUL Turkeys president vowed on Sunday to destroy


terrorists after months of deadly
attacks throughout the country
and reiterated his claim that a child
suicide bomber was responsible
for last weekends explosion that
claimed at least 54 lives in the
southeast.
Speaking at a rally in Gaziantep
where the suicide bombing took
place at a Kurdish wedding,
President Recep Tayyip Erdogan
said the terrorists are being
picked up one by one by
Turkeys security forces.
They will all be cleansed out
like a cancer cell, he told a roaring crowd of his supporters. We
will nd them and punish them.
Last week, Erdogan said a 12- to

1 4 -y ear-o l d
child was the
suicide bomber,
but
Prime
Minister Binali
Yildirim said
later that the
bomber
was
still unidentiRecep Tayyip ed and investigations conErdogan
tinued.
On
Sunday, Erdogan reiterated the
claim without saying whether its
a result of the investigation.
Terror has used a 14-year-old
child as a suicide bomber and shed
blood, killed people, he said. In
this attack, our 54 citizens,
including 34 children, died.
Authorities have blamed the
Islamic State group for the
Gaziantep attack, but neither IS
nor any other militant groups

have claimed responsibility.


Erdogan repeated that the countrys parliament will decide
whether to reintroduce a death
penalty in the wake of a failed
coup on July 15 that claimed at
least 270 lives. That has triggered
an outcry by rights groups in
Turkey and the West.
My nation wants the death
penalty, he said. That is the
decision of the Grand National
Assembly of Turkey.
Turkey has sent tanks across the
Syrian border following weeks of
deadly attacks by the Kurdistan
Workers Party, or the PKK, and
IS. The move aims to both ght IS
and halt the advance of Syrian
Kurdish groups.
On Sunday, two separate blasts
in the Turkeys Kurdish-dominated
southeast killed one Turkish soldier and wounded eight others, and

Kurdish militants launched a rocket-propelled grenade at a civilian


airport, ofcials and the state-run
news agency said.
One soldier was killed and three
were wounded after a roadside
bomb was triggered remotely by
rebels linked to the PKK in the
Hakkari province, the state-run
Anadolu Agency said. In the ensuing reght that included army
helicopters, 10 militants were
killed, the private Dogan news
agency said. The report couldnt
be independently veried.
In another attack, ve civilian
village guards were wounded in
Siirt province after their van hit
an improvised explosive device
on a road, Anadolu said, blaming
PKK for the blast.
Earlier, Kurdish rebels, apparently targeting a police checkpoint at Diyarbakir Airport, red a

grenade that exploded near the airports VIP passenger entrance,


shattering windows, the local
governors ofce said. No injuries
were reported. Passengers were
taken to safety after the attack and
ights resumed after a brief pause
during the police investigation.
Violence between the PKK and
security forces resumed last year,
after the collapse of a two-year
peace process in July. Since then,
more than 600 Turkish security personnel and thousands of PKK militants have been killed, according to
Anadolu. Rights groups say hundreds of civilians have also been
killed in the clashes.
On Friday, a Kurdish suicide
bomber rammed an explosivesladen truck into a checkpoint near
a police station in the southeast,
killing at least 11 Turkish police
ofcers and wounding 78.

Grief erupts in Italy as nation


honors and buries quake dead
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ASCOLI PICENO, Italy Mourners in


Italy prayed, hugged, wept and even
applauded as coffins carrying victims of the
countrys devastating earthquake passed by
at a state funeral Saturday, grieving as one
nation after three desperate days of trying to
save as many people as possible.
In the central town of Ascoli Piceno, they
gathered to bid farewell to 35 of the 291
people confirmed dead so far after the quake
that struck a swath of countryside early
Wednesday at the foothills of the central
Apennine mountains.
The caskets of 35 people had been
brought to a community gym one of the
few structures in the area still intact and
large enough to hold hundreds of mourners.
The local bishop, Giovanni DErcole, celebrated Mass beneath a crucifix he had
retrieved from one of the damaged churches
in the picturesque area of medieval stone
towns and hamlets.
Emotions that had been dammed up for
days broke in a crescendo of grief. One
young man wept over a little girls white
coffin. Another woman gently stroked
another small casket. Many mourners were
recovering from injuries themselves, some
wrapped in bandages. Everywhere people
knelt at coffins, tears running down their
cheeks, their arms around loved ones.
It is a great tragedy. There are no words to
describe it, said Gina Razzetti, a resident at
the funeral. Each one of us has our pain
inside. We are thinking about the families
who lost relatives, who lost their homes,
who lost everything.
As all of Italy observed a day of national
mourning, with flags at half-staff, Bishop
DErcole urged residents to rebuild their
communities.
Dont be afraid to cry out your suffering
I have seen a lot of this but please do
not lose courage, DErcole said in his hom-

Rebels set permanent cease-fire
under Colombia peace deal
HAVANA The commander of
Colombias biggest rebel movement said
Sunday its fighters will permanently cease
hostilities with the government beginning
with the first minute of Monday, as a result
of their peace accord ending one of the
worlds longest-running conflicts.
Rodrigo Londono, leader of the
Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia,
made the announcement in Havana, where
the two sides negotiated for four years

ily. Only together can we rebuild our houses and our churches. Together, above all, we
will be able to restore life to our communities.
President Sergio Mattarella and Premier
Matteo Renzi joined grieving family members, stopping to speak to some of them.
When the caskets were brought out of the
gym, the mourners applauded, a traditional
Italian way of honoring people who die in
tragedy.
The bishop recalled the heartbreaking
story of 9-year-old Giulia Rinaldo, whose
embrace apparently allowed her younger
sister Giorgia to survive.
He said 15 hours after the quake struck
Wednesday, he returned to the church in
Pescara Del Tronto to recover its crucifix.
Close by, firefighters were using their
hands to dig out the two sisters.
The older one, Giulia, was sprawled over
the smaller one, Giorgia. Giulia, dead,
Giorgia, alive. They were in an embrace,
DErcole said.
Giulia was among those buried Saturday,
while her younger sister had her fourth
birthday at a hospital, trying to recover
from the traumatizing ordeal.
The melancholy grabs on to your heart.
You feel a sense of weakness, of depression, said Fiore Ciotto, a resident of
Ascoli Piceno who attended the funeral. An
event like this weakens you physically and
mentally.
Across the area, a cool retreat for those
seeking to escape Italys hot summers,
many of the dead were children and elderly
people, some of them visiting grandparents
before school resumed.
The magnitude 6.2 quake struck at 3:36
a.m. Wednesday and was felt across a broad
swath of central Italy, killing at least 291
people and injuring nearly 400. Nobody has
been found alive in the ruins since
Wednesday, and hopes have nearly vanished
of finding any more survivors.
before announcing the peace deal
Wednesday.
Never again will parents be burying their
sons and daughters killed in the war, said
Londono, who also known as Timoshenko.
All rivalries and grudges will remain in the
past.
Colombian President Juan Manuel Santos
announced on Friday that his military would
cease attacks on the FARC beginning
Monday.
Colombia is expected to hold a national
referendum Oct. 2 to give voters the chance
to approve the deal for ending a half-century of political violence that has claimed
more than 220,000 lives and driven more
than 5 million people from their homes.

The Wisnom family


and San Mateo history

Letters to the editor


Reasonable renter protection
Editor,
The Burlingame City Council has
gone where the far more enlightened
San Mateo City Council has decided
not to go. They have gone on record
as opposing the resolution that the
citizens have placed on the ballot for
November regarding installing a rent
stabilization board and establishing
just cause for eviction as well as reasonable compensation for moving
expenses for those asked to leave
through no fault of their own- hardly
radical desires on the part of the
renter protection folks.
What they are attempting to install
are reasonable protections for renters
as opposed to having a monopoly of
power in the hands of landlords as is
presently the case. When has it ever
been considered a positive condition
in this country to have monopolies
as the norm and a balance of interests
as less desirable? The American experience has shown us to be far more
fair-minded than that. The situation
that exists on the Peninsula with
housing and populations in such an
imbalance can in no way be built out
of existence. The needs for some semblance of housing security for present
residents or renters should be uppermost in the minds of those placed in
charge of our decision-making, not
the untrammeled monopoly that continues under our present situation. An
even-handed response to the citizen
process that weve seen in the measures placed on Novembers ballot
should be far more respected.
Cornering the market in blueberries
is quite different from monopolizing
the market in human habitation with
all that it involves.

Please dont lie for Trump


Editor,
In Joe OConnors letter
Conservative views in the Aug. 16
edition of the Daily Journal, he
attempts to rewrite history and put
words in Donald Trumps mouth. It
was perfectly clear to the average person, that when Trump said, I dont
know, maybe the Second Amendment
people could do something, the
National Rie Association was never
mentioned by Trump in this comment. He was referring to some form
of violence against Hillary Clinton.
The phrase Second Amendment
people is referring to American citizens who mistakenly believe they
have the right to carry their guns on
them, anytime and anywhere. So,
when Trump refers to people who
carry their guns with them all the
time, its easy to infer that he means
that maybe these people can do some-

Twisting Trumps words


Editor,
An irate letter writersaw Trumps
speech and he was clearly referring
to the organizations political power
and funding not anything even
remotely connected to violence
(Conservative views letter to the
editor in the Aug. 16 edition of the
Daily Journal).
My goodness, how much of a Trump
apologist do you have to be to misunderstand his words: Hillary wants to
abolish, essentially abolish the
Second Amendment. If she gets to
pick her judges, nothing you can do,
folks. Although the Second
Amendment people, maybe there is. I
dont know, adding, But that would
be a horrible day.
Besides blatantly lying about
Hillarys plan for the Second
Amendment, the last sentence should
remove any doubt about what Trump
really meant. He certainly didnt
mean it would bea horrible day
ifhis opponentwere prevented from
picking SCOTUS judges because she
didnt win. Even Trump seemed to
admit it would be a horrible day if
another politician were gunned down,
or did he just add that to sound more
reasonable? Every Southerner, black
and white, knows exactly what Trump
was suggesting when he said the
Second Amendment people know
what to do if Clinton is elected.
Trumps methods line up with the historic pattern of white hate groups
who wait for politicians to use code
words to call them to arms.
Just recently, a federal court overturned North Carolinas voter-suppression law. Trump knows that
justmade itharder for him to win this
swing state. No surprise he would
sink low enough to tap the repressed
hatred of angry white voters.
But I am surprised that someone
feels so obligated todefend a sinking
Trump that he tries to misinterpret
what he actually said, with entirely
illogical linguistic acrobatics.

Americas political problem


Editor,
Its easy to see what we do wrong in
this country in terms of government.
We elect Republican presidents who
give tax cuts, especially to the
wealthy. Then they make up for those
cuts by borrowing the money from
China. So when they leave ofce, the
people who are most economically
active, which is the middle class,
have to pay back that debt. Because if
youre rich, then youve made it,
nowhere else to go. If youre poor,
then youre without funds and are not
going anywhere either. But, if youre
in the middle, you neither lack nor are
fullled. It is this group that fuels
economic growth.
Republican presidents only give
benets to 10 percent of the country.
Most of us covet the University of
California system and public colleges. Well, we pay for them through
our taxes. If not enough taxes are collected, then the costs have to be
passed on to the students. So one can
believe this myth: the Democrats
take your hard-earned money and give
it away to people who dont work or
contribute. Or you can believe the
truth: the Republicans are having the
rich pay less in taxes than most of
the middle class, leavingthe bills for
us to pay. Everything that makes this
country so wonderful to live in started
with FDR and his New Deal.
Without that, we can begin the slide
back into feudalism.

he story of the Wisnoms is intertwined with San


Mateo history. Appropriately, current members and
their ancestors will be honored by the San Mateo
County Historical Association History Makers Dinner
Sept. 21.
In 1868, Robert Wisnom, an Irish carpenter, came to San
Mateo where he helped build John Parrotts Baywood
Estate. The mansion itself stood a half block west of the
present San Mateo main library.
Then, the little village of San Mateo had no street lights
nor paved streets. There was no sewer system. The newly
launched San Francisco-San Jose Railroad, provided transportation north and south while stagecoaches moved people to the coast and back. The entire community was built
around the railroad depot. But Wisnom liked what he saw. In
1869, he purchased his rst
piece of real estate between
Third and Fourth avenues on
B Street. He also started his
own business. He lived in a
large Victorian boarding
house on 36-38 N.
Claremont St., a portion of
which still exists today.
***
In 1872, Wisnom traveled
to Ireland to nd a wife
because women were in
short supply in San Mateo.
He married Sarah Whitehead
on Dec. 31, 1872, and the
next day they sailed to
California. Soon after, the
young couple bought property on the west side of
Claremont St., just north of First Avenue, and constructed a
house for $1,700. It was a two-story house with six rooms
where their rst baby was born.
The family then built a new house at 149 Second Ave.
Robert had formed a contracting and lumber business with
James R. Doyle. They set up their rst yard on Second
Avenue and B Street, now the site of the Vault 164 restaurant (formerly National Bank). Next door, Wisnom built a
barn and stable on the site of the present day Hotel St.
Matthew. By the end of the decade, the lumber yard was the
only one of its kind on the mid-Peninsula.
By 1874, everyone in the village was calling Wisnom
Big Bob. He and Sarah became members of the
Congregational Church. Wisnom built a 34-foot-by-150foot wine house on what is Brewer Avenue in Hillsborough
today. With this, he became recognized as San Mateos best
known builder. At about this time he built Union Hall near
the railroad tracks which he later rebuilt into Wisnom Hall,
the central gathering place for the San Mateo community
until it was destroyed by re in 1883. It also served as a
court and public meetings were held there before there was a
city hall. In 1875, he received his greatest job offer yet
to build the James Byrnes House, a mansion for $6,000. A
portion of the house still stands at 703-717 First Ave.
Byrnes would become a state senator.
Wisnom also built Victorian homes for blacksmiths
William and Dennis Brown. The latter still stands at 5
Delaware St. Commercial buildings constructed by Robert
and later by his family included the original Levy Brothers
store on B Street and the Hotel St. Matthew on the site of
Wisnoms old barn and stable. The block bounded by
Baldwin Avenue, B Street, First Avenue and Ellsworth
Avenue was also developed by the family.
As a leading citizen, Wisnom helped start the Bank of
San Mateo. He served as vice president until it was taken
over by A.P. Giannini. Wisnom was then chosen as one of
the ve original councilmembers of the edging city.
***
Roberts and Sarahs last home was a large white
Victorian which encompassed an entire block on Second
Avenue between San Mateo Drive and Ellsworth Avenue.
When he retired in 1904, each of his seven children
received equal shares in the Wisnom Company, which by
decree had to remain in the family. No outsider could ever

Concern grows that Obamacare


will go down as failed experiment
By Ricardo Alonso-Zaldivar
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON With the


hourglass running out for his
administration, President Barack
Obamas health care law is struggling in many parts of the country. Double-digit premium increases and exits by big-name insurers
have caused some to wonder
whether Obamacare will go
down as a failed experiment.
If Democrat Hillary Clinton
wins the White House, expect her
to mount a rescue effort. But how
much Clinton could do depends on
finding willing partners in
Congress and among Republican
governors, a real political challenge.
There are turbulent waters,
said Kathleen Sebelius, Obamas
first secretary of Health and
Human Services. But do I see this
as a death knell? No.
Next years health insurance
sign-up season starts a week
before the Nov. 8 election, and the
previews have been brutal.
Premiums are expected to go up
sharply in many insurance marketplaces, which offer subsidized
private coverage to people lacking access to job-based plans.
At the same time, retrenchment
by insurers that have lost hundreds
of millions of dollars means that
more areas will become one-insurer markets, losing the benefits of
competition. The consulting firm

Avalere Health projects that seven


states will only have one insurer
in each of their marketplace
regions next year.
Administration officials say
insurers set prices too low in a bid
to gain market share, and the correction is leading to sticker
shock. Insurers blame the problems on sicker-than-expected customers, disappointing enrollment
and a premium stabilization system that failed to work as advertised. They also say some people
are gaming the system, taking
advantage of guaranteed coverage
to get medical care only when they
are sick.
Not all state markets are in trouble. What is more important, most
of the 11 million people covered
through HealthCare.gov and its
state-run counterparts will be
cushioned from premium increases
by government subsidies that rise
with the cost.
But many customers may have
to switch to less comprehensive
plans to keep their monthly premiums down. And millions of people who buy individual policies
outside the government marketplaces get no financial help. They
will have to pay the full increases
or go without coverage and risk
fines. (People with employer coverage and Medicare are largely
unaffected.)
Tennessees insurance commissioner said recently that the individual health insurance market in

her state is
very near coll a p s e .
Premiums for
the
biggest
insurer
are
expected
to
increase by an
average of 62
Barack Obama percent. Two
co mp et i t o rs
will post average increases of 46
percent and 44 percent.
But because the spigot of federal
subsidies remains wide open, an
implosion of health insurance
markets around the country seems
unlikely. More than 8 out of 10
HealthCare. gov customers get
subsidies covering about 70 percent of their total premiums.
Instead, the damage is likely to be
gradual. Rising premiums deter
healthy people from signing up,
leaving an insurance pool thats
more expensive to cover each succeeding year.
My real concern is 2018, said
Caroline Pearson, a senior vice
president with Avalere. If there is
no improvement in enrollment,
we could see big sections of the
country without any plans participating.
If Republican Donald Trump
wins the White House, hed start
dismantling the Affordable Care
Act. But Clinton would come with
a long list of proposed fixes, from
rearranging benefits to introducing a government-sponsored
public option as an alternative

to private insurers. Not all her


ideas would require congressional
action.
She is going to find it important to continue to expand health
care, said Joel Ario, a former
Obama administration official
whos now with the consulting
firm Mannatt Health.
People in the Clinton camp say
she recognizes that as president
shed have to get Obamas law
working better, and is taking
nothing off the table.
A look at some major ideas and
their prospects:

PUBLIC OPTION
Clintons
primary
rival,
Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders,
advocated Medicare for all and
that pushed Clinton to a fuller
embrace of government-run insurance. But Democrats could not get
a public option through Congress
even when they had undisputed
control. Whichever party wins the
Senate in November, the balance
is expected to be close and
Republicans are favored to retain
control of the House.
While a new national insurance
program seems a long shot,
Obamas law allows states to
experiment. I think the public
option is more likely to be tested
at a state level, Sebelius said.

SWEETENING SUBSIDIES
Clinton has proposed more generous subsidies and tax credits for

health care, which might also


entice more people to sign up. But
shed have a tough time selling
Republicans. It may be doable in
the bargaining around budget and
tax bills, but Democrats would be
pressed to give up some of the
health laws requirements, including a premiums formula that tends
to favor older people over young
adults.

INCREMENTAL CHANGES
Whether its fixing a family
glitch that can prevent dependents from getting subsidized coverage, requiring insurers to cover
more routine services outside the
annual deductible, or reworking
the premium stabilization program for insurers, incremental
changes seem to offer a president
Clinton her easiest path.

MEDICAID EXPANSION
Expect a Clinton White House
to tirelessly court the 19 states
that have yet to expand Medicaid
for low-income people.
Shed ask Congress to provide
the same three full years of federal
financing that early-adopting
states got under the health law.
GOP governors would demand
more flexibility with program
rules.
Im just hoping that reality
begins to sink in when she is
inaugurated, Sebelius said. If the
law is not going to go away, then
lets make it work.

Airbnb cites its enforcement as crackdown bill awaits Cuomo


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ALBANY, N. Y. New York


Gov. Andrew Cuomo must soon
decide whether to authorize hefty
fines for many people who offer to
rent out their New York City apartments on Airbnb.
Meanwhile, the online booking
service said its policing its website to remove commercial opera-

tors in the city, addressing a chief


complaint of critics who say it
promotes illegal hotels and effectively takes scarce apartments out
of circulation.
Airbnb, with 45,000 city listings and another 13,000 across
the state, counters that it typically
enables New Yorkers to make
about $5,000 a year to help pay
their own rising rents, while offer-

ing interesting and sometimes


more affordable alternatives to the
New York Citys nearly 60 million
annual visitors.
Hosts set these prices, but I
think most people find that its a
better deal than staying at a
hotel, said Josh Meltzer, head of
public policy for Airbnb, which
recorded 1.3 million city guests
over the past year.

Peter Ward, president of the New


York Hotel and Motel Trades
Council, said Airbnb has been
breaking laws with impunity for
years, depleting affordable housing stock and threatening middleclass union hotel jobs that are
the backbone of New Yorks
tourism economy.
New York Citys 696 hotels
employed 50,000 people last year

about 30,000 of them were


union members according to
state, union and municipal authorities. Average occupancy in
Manhattan was 88.4 percent with
average daily rooms costing
$290.
Its already illegal to rent most
city apartments for less than 30
days when the owner or tenant is
not there.

Notre Dame-Belmont takes 2nd at Spikefest


By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Notre Dame-Belmont head coach Jen


Agresti was still steaming about the Tigers
loss to Mitty in the Spikefest I championship match Saturday when her assistant
coach Anne Ulrich Luchetti pointed out some
keen history.
While NDB has reached great volleyball
heights in recent years most recently capturing the Division IV state championship
last season the volleyball powerhouse, in
13 years, had never advanced to the championship match at the 32-team regular-season

kickoff at Milpitas High


School.
While getting swept
25-10, 25-19 in the
championship match by
Mitty, the second-place
finish marks the best ever
at Spikefest by NDB.
I think this shows
were going to be able to
Katie Smoot
do a lot as a team if we put
in the time and effort, NDB senior outside
hitter Katie Smoot said.
Smoot showed she has no intention of
slowing down just because she secured a full

ride to University of Arizona next season.


The 6-foot crusher turned in a superb allaround performance through the Tigers five
matches Saturday, totaling 63 kills, 21 digs,
five solo blocks and five aces.
Katie was not happy after the [loss in the
championship match], Agresti said. But
watching her throughout the day when she
makes up her mind shes going to put the ball
away, she just trail-blazes.
For Mitty, reaching Saturdays championship match was something of a cakewalk.
The reigning West Catholic Athletic League
and state Division II champs dropped just one
set on the day in a matchup with Sacred Heart

Prep. Otherwise, the Monarchs swept


through Lincoln-San Jose, Bishop ODowdOakland and Presentation-San Jose before
their showdown with NDB.
For the Tigers, however, their two matches
leading into the championship round were
both grueling three-set victories, including
the final game of pool play in which it
appeared, at a point, NDB had been defeated.
Facing St. Ignatius-SF, the Tigers dropped
the first set and saw St. Ignatius earn a match
point at 24-23 in Game 2. During the ensuing
rally, St. Ignatius was on the attack but made

racked up 575 yards of total offense.


If we play defense like that all season
well be 0-10 this year, Serra head coach
Patrick Walsh said. So weve got to find out
spirit there.
According to Walsh, the Padres spirit got
sapped when Sitaleki Nunn was forced to
depart to the locker room following the big
return.

SAN FRANCISCO The Giants combined


some unexpected power at the plate with a
gritty outing from Madison Bumgarner to
beat the Braves and finally get a much-needed
series win a rarity for manager Bruce
Bochys ballclub since the All-Star break.
With a little more than a month left in the
season, even hitting four home runs, including a pair by Joe Panik,
paled in comparison to
taking two of three from
Atlanta.
There havent been
many of them in the second half, but things look
like theyre starting to
turn around for us,
Bumgarner said after
Joe Panik
pitching seven innings in
San Franciscos 13-4 victory Sunday. Weve
been playing pretty good but a lot of things
havent gone our way. Thats a good win for
us, to win that series.
The Giants had won only one series since
the break. In the process, a 6 1/2-game lead
in the NL West turned into a two-game deficit
heading into Sunday.
San Francisco is still two games back of
the first-place Los Angeles Dodgers, but the
outlook sure is a lot brighter after the Giants
completed their first series win at home since
early July.
Its great to take any series, Bochy said.
Hopefully, we can come back and carry this
the rest of the way.
Panik hit a solo homer in the second and
added a two-run shot in the fourth. The second baseman also reached on an infield single in the sixth and had a sacrifice fly in the
seventh to match his career high of four
RBIs.

By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

One explosive play to open the second


half looked like the swing of momentum the
Serra Padres needed Saturday against powerhouse St. Marys-Stockton.
After a back-and-forth first half, Sitaleki
Nunn took the second-half kickoff 93 yards
for a touchdown to swing the Padres into the
lead. But the exciting return proved more

harmful than the temporary advantage it provided on the scoreboard as the gallop caused
Sitaleki Nunn to depart with leg cramps.
Less than three minutes later, a relentless
St. Marys offense took the lead back and
dominated the second half to claim a 63-35
victory over Serra in Saturdays opener at
Brady Family Stadium.

Few contenders, more pretenders in NFC


By Rob Maaddi
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

The last four teams to play for the NFC


championship have the same goal: Super
Bowl or bust.
Carolina, Arizona, Seattle and Green Bay are
still the class of a conference that has far more
pretenders than contenders. Its a smart bet one
of the four teams will be in Houston playing
for the Vince Lombardi Trophy in February.
Reigning NFL MVP Cam Newton led the
Panthers to a 17-1 record before Von Miller and
the Broncos stifled them in the Super Bowl.
Carolina returns the bulk of its roster except
All-Pro cornerback Josh Norman, now in
Washington. The offense should be even better
because star receiver Kelvin Benjamin is back
after a knee injury forced him to miss last season.
Given the talent we have on the offensive
side, its about every guy maximizing their
role, Newton said. We dont want to look
back and say we didnt maximize our opportunity with all these talents.
The last eight teams to lose the Super Bowl
have won at least 10 games the next season.
But no team has reached the title game a year
after losing since the 1993 Bills.
You can never be satisfied, Panthers coach
Ron Rivera said. We didnt win the Super
Bowl. So that right there is enough for us to
stay motivated and keep moving toward our
goal.
The Cardinals were 13-3 last year and are 3414 under Bruce Arians. A blowout loss at
Carolina in the NFC title game was a bitter end
to a fine season. Carson Palmer is coming off
his best season, but threw four interceptions
against the Panthers. Palmer turns 37 in
December, so theres urgency to win now.

JEREMY BREVARD/USA TODAY SPORTS

The Carolina Panthers return a majority of the roster, including NFL MVP Cam Newton, that
carried the franchise to the Super Bowl last season.
Seattle also was knocked out of the playoffs
by the Panthers. The Seahawks might have
even more depth than they did when they
almost won consecutive Super Bowls in 201314.
Running back Thomas Rawls Marshawn
Lynchs replacement and tight end Jimmy
Graham are back from significant injuries that
ended their 2015 seasons early. Russell
Wilson led the NFL in passer rating and is still
improving.
We know what it takes to win a lot of
games, Wilson said.
Aaron Rodgers and the Packers are looking
to rebound after Minnesota ended their fouryear reign in the NFC North. Star receiver

Jordy Nelson is back after missing the season


with a knee injury. Running back Eddie Lacy
slimmed down. Even Rodgers altered his diet
after minor knee surgery in the offseason.
If everyone around him stays healthy,
Rodgers should return to MVP form. He had
3,821 yards passing, 31 touchdowns and eight
interceptions in a down year for him in
2015.
The Vikings round out the top 5 in the NFC.
But they need much more production from
Teddy Bridgewater to have a chance to win the
conference. Bridgewater finished in the bottom third of the NFL in most quarterback categories last season.
Minnesotas offense still relies on Adrian

College football Down Under attracts 61,000 fans in Sydney

SYDNEY The beer ran out in some sections of the Olympic stadium, but most of
the 61,247 spectators at Saturdays U.S. college football opener in Sydney between
California and Hawaii appeared to be enjoying their American gridiron experience.
The favored Pac 12 conferences
California Golden Bears from Berkeley

across the Bay from San Francisco were 5131 winners. It was a midday start so that the
game could be televised back to the U.S. in

day there arent a lot of ground-level parking lots close to the 83,500-seat stadium
but fans feasted on two-foot-long hotdogs
and copious amounts of French fries and
nachos. Asian and middle Eastern food from

nearby catering kiosks also featured, reflecting the multicultural makeup of the neighborhoods around the former Olympic
precinct of Homebush in western Sydney.
The concession stands, however, appeared
to be unprepared for the crowds. Stadium

Peterson slows down, the Vikings could be in
trouble.
Whoever wins the NFC East could be an
underdog in the playoffs, though a home game
comes with winning the division.
The Redskins finished first thanks to a
breakout year from Kirk Cousins. They added
Norman in free agency to bolster a poor
defense. But no team has repeated in the division since the Eagles won four in a row from
2001-04.
The Giants have a new coach, Ben McAdoo,
and revamped defense. They re-signed Jason
Pierre-Paul and added defensive end Olivier
Vernon, defensive tackle Damon Harrison,
cornerback Janoris Jenkins and linebacker
Kennan Robinson.
With Eli Manning and Odell Beckham Jr.
leading the way on offense, New York could
end its four-year playoff drought.
McAdoo is one of four new coaches in the
NFC. The Eagles hired Doug Pederson to
replace Chip Kelly, who took over in San
Francisco. Tampa Bay hired Dirk Koetter.
Tony Romos back injury means Dallas
might start the season with rookie Dak
Prescott at quarterback. If so, it tempers the
excitement surrounding running back Ezekiel
Elliott, the No. 4 overall pick.
Matthew Stafford and the Lions have to
adjust to life without Calvin Johnson.
Megatron retired in the offseason.
Drew Brees is playing for a new contract 37
at age, so the Saints could be a surprise team.
The Falcons aim for consistency after losing
eight of 11 following a 5-0 start. The Rams try
to bring a winner to town in the NFLs return to
Los Angeles. The Bears will go as far as Jay
Cutler takes them, usually nowhere.

Continued from page 11

Local roundup
Menlo running back Charlie Ferguson opened his senior
season with a bang, rushing for a game-high 216 yards to lead
the Knights past Lincoln Saturday at Menlo School.
Ferguson carried the ball 17 times and scored two tourndowns. He also had a big showing on special teams, finishing
the day with 335 multi-purpose yards.
Menlo and Lincoln went into the halftime locker room tied 77, but the Knights scored 21 unanswered points in the third quarter. Both teams finished the day with 300 total offensive yards on
the nose. Lincoln junior running back Josiah Calvo-Martinez
also had a big day, totaling a career-high 204 rushing yards.

San Benito 30, Sacred Heart Prep 12


The Gators dropped their first opening game since 2006,
falling Saturday at home to the San Benito Haybalers.
Senior quarterback Thomas Wine was 11-of-23 passing for
183 yards and one touchdown, a 39-yard strike to Dominic
Cacchione in the first quarter to get the Gators on the board.
Cacchione finsihed the day with six recpetions for 116 yards.
Running back Garrett Gavello 12 rushes for 42 yards
added SHPs other score in the third quarter.
The last team to defeat SHP on opening day was El Camino
on Sept. 1, 2006 by a score of 20-19.

Peeters earns honors at Wilcox Tournament
San Mateo dropped a pair of games Saturday to wrap up play
in the Wilcox Tournament, but a spectacular showing by senior wing Nick Peeters in the early game cinched his selection
on the all-tournament team.
The Bearcats fell 19-10 to Lynbrook in the first of two
games Saturday with Peeters totaling seven goals and four
assists. Ethan Wolf added two goals for San Mateo, while
Bruno Basilieri and Sterling Finn had one score apiece.
In Saturdays nightcap, a 14-6 loss to Santa Clara, Peeters
added two more goals while Wolf scored a team-high three. Joe
Borges rounded out the scoring with one goal.

While on the field, Sitaleki Nunn was


a force, totaling 325 all-purpose yards.
But St. Marys junior running back
Dusty Frampton was equally as impressive in his first opening-day start, rushing for 277 yards on 21 carries and six
touchdowns, including scoring runs of
78 and 60 yards in the second half.
He ran like Adrian Peterson, Walsh
said. He had a great day today.
The start was just the second of
Framptons varsity career. While he
notched two four-touchdown games last
season and totaled 710 yards, he only
got one start in the first round of the
playoffs when the Rams rushing leader
from 2015, Brandon Zaunbrecher, went
down with an ankle injury.
Frampton ran for a season-high 143
yards in that playoff win against StaggStockton. But Saturdays performance
was nearly twice as impressive.
Im excited, Frampton said. This
is by far my best game ever.
The Padres had plenty of highlights
in the first half, including leading for
much of it. Under center, Sitaleki Nunn
was his typically dynamic self, proving
the ever-creative centerpiece of the
spread option offense.
After St. Marys jumped out to a quick
lead less than two minutes into the
game on six-place, 80-yard drive
with Frampton carrying the ball on five
of the six plays, including a 3-yard
touchdown run the Padres answered

THE DAILY JOURNAL


right back with a score by getting
shifty at the quarterback position.
Sitaleki Nunn tabbed a first-down run
for 8 yards, then a first-down throw for
17 yards. But then Serra pulled a
switcheroo at the St. Marys 20-yard
line by quickly subbing in junior quarterback Jack Dameilo. Lining up
Sitaleki Nunn at wide out, Dameilo
found the reigning West Catholic
Athletic League Player of the Year on a
fly pattern over the middle for a touchdown strike, giving Serra a 7-6 lead.
The lead seesawed with Serra reupping to 14-13 with 9:19 remaining
in the half on a 44-yard breakaway
touchdown run by junior Isiah
Kendrick. Then the Padres flashed some
special-teams trickery as well to come
up with the ball on the ensuing kickoff.
Sitaleki Nunns younger brother, junior Patrick Nunn, recovered a lobbing
onside kick towards the sideline that
crossed the 10-yard clearance at the 50yard line by mere inches, giving the
Padres a momentum swing with possession at midfield.
Sitaleki Nunn then engineered an 11play drive with pass completions of 20,
24 and 4 yards along with runs of 4, 5
and a pair of 1-yard gainers inside the
St. Marys 5-yard line before junior slot
Shane Villaroman took an end-around
pitch for a 1-yard score, giving the
Padres a 21-13 lead.
But Serra couldnt hold off St. Marys
before the half as the Rams scored twice
inside the final two minutes of the half.
Theyre a good team, Serra outside
linebacker Ryan Matoso said. Theyre
big and theyre physical. We knew
exactly what was going to happen. We
just couldnt make tackles.

Frampton had his biggest run of the


half on a 25-yard sweep to push St.
Marys past midfield. Six plays later he
walked into the end zone for his second
score of the afternoon, closing Serras
lead to 21-19.
But the Rams werent through, forcing a quick possession change on a
three-and-out to get the ball back at
their own 41 with 41 seconds remaining in the half. Quarterback Jack
Dunniway then led his offense downfield for a swift score, exacting completions of 12, 20 and 8 yards before moving the ball to the 2-yard line a quarterback keeper.
Serra was tagged with a facemask
penalty on the play, moving the ball to
the 1. The extra yard gave St. Marys the
chance to run a wildcat draw with Marcus
Aponte scoring out of the shotgun with
no time remaining on the first-half
clock to give the Rams a 26-21 lead.
We couldnt run the clock out in the
first half, Walsh said. That was the
difference.
Sitaleki Nunn was noticeably in discomfort following the game. Walsh,
however, said he should be available to
play Friday night when the Padres travel to De La Salle-Concord.
Dameilo also departed late in the
game with an apparent injury to his
non-throwing shoulder. The junior was
9-of-12 passing for 66 yards, one
touchdown and one interception.
Sophomore quarterback Luke Bottari
saw some late snaps, going 0 for 2 with
an interception in his varsity debut.
Its a young team, Sitaleki Nunn
said. We need that next-man-up mentality. It didnt show today but it will
definitely show next week.

I think she is going to be a stud.

NDB senior outside hitter Tammy


Byrne finished the day with 36 kills, 46

Fowler plays his way off U.S. Ryder Cup team


By Doug Ferguson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

FARMINGDALE, N.Y. Rickie


Fowler lost the lead, the tournament
and a guaranteed spot on the Ryder
Cup team.
Right when it looked as though
Zach Johnson had played his way
off the U.S. team, Fowler squandered a chance to earn the eighth and
final automatic spot when he shot
39 on the back nine at The
Barclays, capped off by two bogeys
and a double bogey over his last
four holes.
Very disappointing, Fowler
said. Just made a couple bad
swings at the wrong time.
Sunday was the final day for

there were so many empty seats is
that most of the fans were in a
queue somewhere.
Many of the Aussie fans were
barracking more for the underdog Hawaiians than the more-fancied Cal side.
Really, they were cheering for
us more? asked Hawaiis first-year
coach Nick Rolovich. He even
admitted to noticing some traditional stadium features like the
Kiss Cam, supplemented often by
Karaoke Cam and Dance Cam
the highlight of the last feature
was a young boy with a Cal Bears tshirt busting some Michael
Jackson-like moves on the giant
stadium scoreboard.
A local marching band provided
halftime entertainment, supplemented by 30 members of the
Hawaii marching band. Among the
glitches was the person who sang
the Star Spangled Banner mistakenly replacing one word for anoth-

Johnson made his fourth Ryder Cup


team, while Dustin Johnson is
playing for the third time and
Mickelson qualified on his own for
the 11th time, an American record.
Europes automatic nine spots
were decided a week ago, and already
there are five Ryder Cup rookies in
Masters champion Danny Willett,
Andy
Sullivan,
Matthew
Fitzpatrick, Rafa Cabrera Bello and
Chris Wood.
European captain Darren Clarke
makes his three picks Tuesday.
Martin Kaymer and Lee Westwood
are likely to be two of the picks,
and Thomas Pieters of Belgium
made a strong case to be a pick
when he won in Denmark on
Sunday.

Americans
to
earn automatic
spots on the
team that will try
to win the Ryder
Cup back from
Europe on Sept.
30 to Oct. 2 at
Hazeltine
at
Minnesota.
Rickie Fowler
Five of the
spots were already clinched going
into The Barclays U.S. Open
champion Dustin Johnson, Jordan
Spieth, Phil Mickelson, PGA champion Jimmy Walker and Ryder Cup
rookie Brooks Koepka.
Patrick Reed moved from No. 8
to No. 4 with his one-shot victory
at Bethpage Black. Brandt

Snedeker and Zach Johnson kept


their spots.
Johnson tied for 48th, leaving
himself vulnerable for being
knocked out of the top eight when
Fowler had a two-shot lead early in
the final round. Fowler only needed
to finish alone in third to overtake
Johnson, and he was two shots
ahead of third place with four holes
to go.
Thats when it all went wrong.
Im just trying to win the tournament, Fowler said when asked if he
knew where he stood. If I win, then
it takes care of both things.
Obviously, once Patrick got a little
bit of a cushion, I still wanted to get
the best finish I can.
It will hurt, Fowler said. But

its only going to make it better for


next week. Ill be in a good spot.
Davis Love III still has four captains picks over the next three
weeks. He will make three of them
after the BMW Championship on
Sept. 12, and the final pick after the
Tour Championship, which ends
the Sunday before Ryder Cup week.
Bubba Watson closed with a 66
and tied for 13th to move into ninth
place, ahead of J.B. Holmes, Fowler
and Matt Kuchar, who won the
bronze medal at the Olympics.
That gives the Americans two of
this years major champions and
only one rookie.
Spieth, Reed, Walker and
Snedeker will be playing on their
second Ryder Cup team. Zach

And one of the referees made a notso-flattering remark about someone on the sidelines, but forgot his
stadium microphone was turned
on.
The star of the show on the field
was California quarterback Davis
Webb, who made quite an impression in his first game as a graduate
transfer from Texas Tech.
Told he had 441 yards passing
38 for 54, with no interceptions
Webb said dryly: Yeah, it was OK,
Im just glad we got the victory.
Hawaii threw a few blitzes at us and
our offensive line played well.
Hawaii was without three key
players for unspecified disciplinary reasons. A Rainbow Warriors
spokesman said just before the
game began that safety Daniel
Lewis Jr., linebacker Jerrol GarciaWilliams and tight end Metuisela
Unga were not with the team
Saturday.
Cal coach Sonny Dykes said it
was a good starting point for his
team.
There is still plenty of work to
be done, but overall we played a
very good game and never let them

get back into it, Dykes said.

Zardesto miss U.S. World Cup


qualifiers after MLS injury

Coach Rolovich also did his bit


to enliven the contest for the new
fan base. After losing the coin toss
and Cal decided to receive, Hawaii
tried an on-side kick that the Bears
were able to recover at midfield. It
was quite the way to start the new
college season.
I wanted to make sure Australian
fans got to see an onside kick, and
in my first game, too. Rolovich
said, smiling. But seriously, I
hope it sends a message that we are
going to play aggressively and
wont back down.
The Hawaii entourage went
straight from the stadium to the
airport to get a scheduled 9 p.m.
flight back to Honolulu. Cals
charter left Sunday afternoon for
its 14-hour flight back across the
Pacific to San Francisco.
Things wont get any easier for
Hawaii when the Rainbow Warriors
play Michigan at the Big House
next weekend in Ann Arbor. Cal
has a bye week before taking on
another
Mountain
West
Conference opponent, San Diego
State, on Sept. 10 in San Diego.

CHICAGO Midfielder Gyasi


Zardes will miss the United States
upcoming World Cup qualifiers after
he was injured during a Major League
Soccer game.
Already without forward Clint
Dempsey as he undergoes evaluations for an irregular heartbeat, the
Americans wont have Zardes for
their final two games of the CONCACAF semifinals.
Coach Jurgen Klinsmann is mostly sticking with the squad that finished fourth in the Centennial Copa
America this summer.
They deserve to come back and
confirm what they did in the tournament, he said.
Forward Jordan Morris, 21, was
added to the 26-man roster announced
Sunday after he wasnt picked for the
Copa team. Another young forward,
20-year-old Rubio Rubin, was also
brought in to get a look in practice.
Klinsmann plans to bring only 23
players on the road when the

Americans face
St. Vincent and
the Grenadines
on Friday.
The U.S. then
hosts Trinidad
and Tobago in
J ack s o n v i l l e,
Florida, on Sept.
6.
Gyasi Zardes
M i df i e l de r
Jermaine Jones is rehabbing from a
knee injury but is on the roster with
the hope that he can play.
The Americans currently are second
behind Trinidad and Tobago in Group
C. The top two teams advance to the
six-nation CONCACAF finals, from
which three automatically make the
field for the 2018 World Cup in
Russia.
If the U.S. wins Friday and Trinidad
beats Guatemala that day, the
Americans move on with one match
to go. Michael Bradley (yellow card
accumulation) and Michael Orozco
(red card from Copa third-place game)
are suspended for the first game.

those who were immediately sidelined.


Sidelined players reported symptoms immediately, including dizziness, headaches, mental fogginess
and fatigue, and were diagnosed
with concussions by trainers or
team physicians. The others, who
continued playing for 19 minutes
on average, delayed reporting
symptoms and were diagnosed later.
Those who continued to play had
worse scores on mental function

to be honest, its not something

Dont Breathe scores, ousts Suicide Squad at box office


By Lindsey Bahr
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LOS ANGELES The horror


movie Dont Breathe has reason
to let out a big sigh of relief.
Audiences turned out in droves for
the late summer thriller, which
brought in $26.1 million, according to studio estimates released
Sunday.
Thats more than double the
early predictions for how the scary
pic would perform and far above
the modest production budget,
which was reportedly less than
$10 million. Stage 6 Films produced and Sonys Screen Gems
oversaw distribution.
Dont Breathe is about a group
of Detroit teens who chose the
wrong house to rob that of a

blind, vengeful veteran. It stars


Jane Levy and Dylan Minnette and
was directed by Fede Alvarez, who
is known for the Evil Dead
remake.
Sony Pictures Marketing Chief
Josh Greenstein noted how rare it
was for a film in this genre to have
resonated so deeply with critics.
The current Rotten Tomatoes score
is a very fresh 87 percent. It also
continues Sonys summer of seeing successes with original films
that cost very little to make.
This marks a string of very
profitable hits for Sony with
very modest budgets. The
Shallows, Sausage Party and
now Dont Breathe were all
incredibly profitable because
they were made for modest budgets and did incredibly well at the

Ken WHITE

Recently, responding to a readers question about the best pet for


young kids (spoiler alert: my
answer was none, suggesting
instead that maturing children be
allowed to assume greater responsibility as one of the family pets
caregivers) I wrote: Small does
not mean simple. Hamsters are
fragile, short-lived (ready to
explain death?), nocturnal critters
who want to sleep when your child
is awake. Theyre also notorious
biters.
This apparently upset members
of the Hamster Anti-Disparagement

box office, Greenstein said.


Its also the latest horror success for Hollywood this summer,
which has seen films like Lights
Out, The Conjuring 2, and The
Purge: Election Year thrive while
their bigger budget, spectacledriven counterparts flailed.
As it turns out horror is the
least scary genre this summer,
especially to the bean counters in
Hollywood,
said
Paul
Dergarabedian, the senior media
analyst for box office tracker

always be counted on to make

Horror films, Dergarabedian
said, perform very well on home
video too.
Dont Breathe effectively
unseated Suicide Squad from its

League whove swamped me with


phone calls in support of their
diminutive companions. OK,
swamped might be an exaggeration. I received two calls from the
same irate individual. Nonetheless,
I do appreciate her passion and
acknowledge Ive indeed met hamsters I found sweet, silly and a
great deal of fun. Their antics are
enjoyable, and they are denitely
cute. However, perhaps more carefully worded, I stick to my original
point.
Hamsters were rst noticed by
modern researchers in the mid-19th
century, discovered in the Syrian

three week run atop the box office.


This weekend, the comic book
film Suicide Squad grossed
$12. 1 million, bringing its
domestic total to $282.9 million.
Laikas Kubo and the Two
Strings took third place in its
second weekend in theaters with
$7.9 million. The $60 million
film has now earned $24.8 million
domestically.
Sausage Party, meanwhile,
continued to have a ball at the box
office, earning $7.7 million for a
fourth place finish and an $80 million domestic total.
The poorly reviewed Jason
Statham-led sequel Mechanic:
Resurrection, meanwhile, placed
fifth in its opening weekend with
$7. 5 million, according to
Lionsgate.

Juan Gabriel, Mexican superstar singer, has died


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MEXICO CITY Juan Gabriel, a


superstar Mexican songwriter and
singer who was an icon in the Latin
music world, died Sunday at his home
in California at age 66, his publicist
said.
Juan Gabriel was Mexicos leading
singer-songwriter and top-selling
artist. His ballads about love and
heartbreak and bouncy mariachi tunes
became hymns throughout Latin
America and Spain and with Spanish
speakers in the United States.
He brought many adoring fans to
tears as they sang along when he
crooned his songs about love and
heartbreak, including his top hits,

Hasta
Que
Te
Conoci (Until I
Met
You)
and
Amor
Eterno
(Eternal Love).
His hit Querida
(Dear)
topped
Mexicos charts for
a whole year.
A flamboyant perJuan Gabriel
former,
Juan
Gabriel, whose real name was Alberto
Aguilera Valadez, liked to wear jackets
covered in sequins or dress in shiny
silk outfits in hot pink, turquoise blue
or canary yellow, and he was known
for tossing his head before dancing or
jumping around the stage.
He has passed on to become part of

eternity and has left us his legacy


through Juan Gabriel, the character
created by him for all the music that
has been sung and performed all around
the world, his press office said in a
statement.
It gave no details on his death.
Publicist Arturo de la Mora told The
Associated Press that he died at 11:30
a.m. in his home. He said the family
would provide a statement later.
Juan Gabriel performed to packed
auditoriums, including New Yorks
Madison Square Garden and the Kodak
Theater in Los Angeles. His last concert was Friday night at the Forum in
Inglewood, California. He was scheduled to perform Sunday in El Paso,
Texas.

The best tip I can offer for avoiding bites: make sure the animal is
fully awake before trying to pick

Hillsborough package thief sought


BAY CITY NEWS

Police are asking for help identifying a Hispanic male suspected


of stealing a package Sunday afternoon
from
a
home
in
Hillsborough.
The theft took place at 1:47
p. m. in the 500 block of
Remillard Drive, police said.
A neighbor told officers that a

heavy-set Hispanic male wearing


a baggy white T-shirt walked
away from a home with a package.
An investigation revealed that a
burglary took place when officers
found someone had forced open a
side door to the home, according
to police.
The suspect got into an older
model black Honda with another

person who was driving. The


Honda was last seen speeding east
on Remillard Drive toward
Ralston Avenue, police said.
Officers who responded to the
home searched for the suspects and
did not find them.
Officers believe that the suspect
is the same person who knocked
on the front door of a home earlier
in the day in the 1300 block of

San Raymundo Road.


The person asked the homeowner whether they saw his dog,
according to police. When the
homeowner said no, the person
turned and walked down the driveway.
The homeowner thought the situation was suspicious and took a
photo of the person.
The person is wearing a white T-

shirt, red pants, and a red hat.


Anyone who saw the person or
the Honda or any suspicious people or vehicles in the same area
this afternoon is asked to call
(650) 375-7470.
Also, police are asking anyone
who has a video surveillance system to review it and share any
footage that might help officers
with the investigation.

the police are subject to a rapid
magnification by the media, this
is the right time for us to move

our public. And for those reasons,
really from the top to the bottom
of our organization we are excited
and enthusiastic about moving to
body-worn video, Norris said.
Staff plans to return to the City
Council with a proposal by the
grand jurys late November timeline, and have a program up and
running in fall of 2017.
Yet there remains a litany of
details to consider, experts with
whom to consult, best practices to

head and arm. She wasnt the


intended target, Cmdr. Brendan
Deenihan said at a news conference
Sunday, but rather a driver who had
just dropped off passengers in the
neighborhood.
There is video of the incident,
Deenihan said, but no weapon was
recovered and police dont know
where the weapon is.
Chicago has been in the throes of
a major uptick in gun violence this
year, largely centered in a few South
and West Side neighborhoods, after
years of seeing declines. This July
alone, there were 65 homicides
the most for that month since
2006.
Superintendent Eddie Johnson
said the suspects are an example of

the citys problem with repeat


offenders, which he has spoken
about frequently in recent months.
Darwin Sorrells was sentenced to
six years in prison in January 2013
on a gun charge and was released
early on parole. Derren Sorrells is a
known gang member who is also
on parole for motor vehicle theft
and escape, police spokesman
Anthony Guglielmi said, adding he
has six felony arrests on his record.
They dont care who they shoot
and they dont fear the consequences, Johnson said, noting as
he has in the past that about 1,400
people are driving 85 percent of the
citys gun violence. He added that
the city has gotten very good at
predicting who will be the perpetra-

tors and the victims of gun violence.


Dozens of people gathered at a
Chicago church Sunday for a prayer
service to remember Aldridge. Her
parents, sister, nieces and nephews
wept as they spoke about the
woman they said was a gifted writer
and fighter of the family.
Wade, whose charitable organization, Wades World Foundation,
does community outreach in the
Chicago area, signed with the
Chicago Bulls in July after 13 years
with the Miami Heat. He and his
mother, pastor Jolinda Wade, participated Thursday via satellite in a
town hall meeting in Chicago on
gun violence hosted by ESPN.
Wade has reacted to his cousins

shooting only online, tweeting


Friday: My cousin was killed
today in Chicago. Another act of
senseless gun violence. 4 kids lost
their mom for NO REASON. Unreal.
(hash)EnoughIsEnough.
Wade also tweeted Saturday morning: The city of Chicago is hurting. We need more help& more
hands on deck. Not for me and my
family but for the future of our
world. The YOUTH! adding in a
following tweet, These young kids
are
screaming
for
help!!!

It is not the first time Wades family in Chicago has been affected by
gun violence. His nephew, Darin
Johnson, was shot twice in the leg
in 2012 but recovered.

review and policies to develop in


the coming months, Norris said.
Currently,
Foster
City,
Belmont, Hillsborough, Menlo
Park and Atherton have deployed
body-worn cameras. Norris said
San Mateo will be consulting with
local agencies, national experts
and investigating what type of
program will be uniquely appropriate for the city.
We want to make sure everyone
from the officers who are turning
on these cameras to the administrators who are managing the liability of this, that everyone
has some universal accord as best
we can with what the best policy
is going to be, Norris said. So
were taking in experiences of different agencies, we want to know
whats working and whats not.
Developing sound policy will
be
key,
he
emphasized.
Considerations will include when

the cameras would be turned on,


what to do about maintaining the
privacy of passersby or unrelated
license plates caught on camera,
whether its appropriate to record
confidential victims and how long
the department should keep
recordings.
Norris noted the data would be
stored by the department, not a
private vendor, but regulations
about who should have access need
to be determined. And of course,
theyll have to decide what type of
equipment to purchase.
With about 117 sworn police
officers and best practices currently suggesting each have their own
camera assigned to them, Norris
said they will likely consider
between 100 and 130 apparatus.
Costs vary greatly based on the
camera and Norris said he wasnt
yet able to provide a cost estimate. He noted policy decisions

will also influence the expense of


the program. For example, the
more data stored or the number of
public records act requests the
department receives, could heavily influence the associated personnel costs, Norris said.
Part of the reason the department postponed acting on implementing a program was to wait and
see the results of larger cities
implementing body-worn cameras, such as in San Francisco and
San Jose. There may also be state
or even federal regulations, if not
mandates, in the coming years
requiring police to consider such
programs, he noted.
City personnel from various
departments, such as police,
information technology and the
attorneys office, will be weighing in on how San Mateo frames
its program in the coming
months. Emphasizing nothing is

set in stone, Norris added they


would likely try a pilot program in
advance of a full-scale implementation next year.
With national incidents highlighting racial as well as social
tensions between various communities and law enforcement, Norris
said San Mateo is prepared to
implement a program that could
benefit the public and officers
alike.
Throughout our department we
are in support of implementing
body-worn video, Norris said.
We think it will not only serve as
a benefit to us, we are looking forward to the opportunity for our
officers to have a tool that holds
the people we come into contact
with accountable to their actions,
holds our officers accountable to
their actions, and provides a documentation resource of the great
job our officers do every day.

Supervisor Don Horsley pushed for
the passage of Lauras Law last year after
the San Mateo County Civil Grand Jury
issued a report urging its passage.
Research indicates that treatment
results in decreased emergency room
admissions, arrests and harm. Im proud
our county and our Health System now
has this extra tool to provide resources
to those who need help, even to those
who dont necessarily know they do,
Horsley wrote in a statement.
The AOT team, upon receiving a referral, will determine if the person meets
the criteria for the program and if so,

will begin engaging the client in


accepting services voluntarily.
If that does not occur, the team will
make a referral to the San Mateo County
Superior Court which in some cases may
order the person to enter treatment
involuntarily. For individuals who do
not meet the AOT guidelines, the team
will help connect them to other services.
Implementing the law cost $1.3 million in fiscal year 2015-16.
At full implementation, Behavioral
Health and Recovery Services estimates
at least 100 adults living with mental
illness in the county could benefit
whether the services are court ordered or
voluntarily accepted.
Lauras Law is named after Laura
Wilcox, a Nevada County mental health
worker murdered by a psychiatric
patient.
AOT services include outreach,
assessment, intensive case management, psychiatric interventions, community supports, housing assistance
and around the clock response.

California has enough, said Lucy. We


could always use more fields.
The dearth of playing surfaces is compounded by the loss of one district field
while renovating Buri Buri Elementary
School, said Lucy, furthering the need
for more facilities for games played by
local community soccer and softball
teams, as well as other organizations.
Lucy said he suspected the $1 million
would likely be an insufficient amount
to finance a field construction or renovation, necessitating more collaboration by school and city officials.
The school districts share of funding was from a $3.2 million community benefits packaged agreed to between
city officials and Sares Regis representatives for a massive residential development to be built near the intersection of Airport Boulevard and Miller
Avenue.
At the time of the agreement to offer

the funds to the local school district,


city officials said they hoped the deal
would foster improved relations with
education officials.
The two sides have differed over discussions regarding surplus school property which city officials had identified
as a potential site to build workforce
housing. School officials were lukewarm to the proposal and the plan was
put on the back burner, while the agencies separately pursued similar initiatives.
As the community benefits project
moves ahead, school officials will continue to examine opportunities to pursue with the shared funds, said Lucy.
We will have some good discussions
on it, look at all the possibilities and
work together, he said. Whatever decision we make will benefit the community and the schools, so there is that teamwork going on.

Starting this fall, wood-burning
stoves will also be forbidden in newly

The rules adopted last year also require

NOTICE OF PETITION TO
ADMINISTER ESTATE OF
Kenneth Albert Waylonis
Case Number: 16PRO00227
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or estate, or both, of Kenneth Albert Waylonis.
A Petition for Probate has been filed by
Ralph J. Waylonis in the Superior Court
of California, County of San Mateo. The
Petition for Probate requests that Ralph
J. Waylonis be appointed as personal
representative to administer the estate of
the decedent. The petition requests authority to administer the estate under the
Independent Administration of Estates
Act. (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions
without obtaining court approval. Before
taking certain very important actions,
however, the personal representative will
be required to give notice to interested
persons unless they have waived notice
or consented to the proposed action.)
The independent administration authority
will be granted unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and
shows good cause why the court should
not grant the authority.
A hearing on the petition will be held in
this court as follows: SEP 13, 2016 at
9:00 a.m., Department 28, Superior
Court of California, County of San Mateo,
400 County Center, Redwood City, CA
94063.
If you object to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing
and state your objections or file written
objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person
or by your attorney.
If you are a creditor or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your
claim with the court and mail a copy to
the personal representative appointed by
the court within the later of either (1) four
months from the date of first issuance of
letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the
Calilfornia Probate Code, or (2) 60 days
from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under sectioin
9052 of the Callifornia Probate
Code.Other California statutes and legal
authority may affect your rights as a
creditor. You may want to consult with an
attorney knowledgable in California law.
You may examine the file kept by the
court. If you are a person interested in
the estate, you may file with the court a
Request for Special Notice (form DE154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any petition
or account as provided in Probate Code
section 1250. A Request for Special Notice form is available from the court clerk.

Continued from page 6
GoFundMe let the appeal go forward.
Yauck said he knew all but one
of his 11 donors personally and
didnt feel a need to tell them of
the switch. It was just for fun. If
you look at the bigger picture, we
raised $600 off a pair of underwear, he said.
Several businesses asked for
contributions. One appeal raised
$1,375 from 14 donors within two
months to keep open a hair salon
run by partners killed in the
attack. A counseling center raised
$150 to subsidize services to victims but closed its campaign when
it found grant money elsewhere.

Continued from page 5
ning off-leash in parks intended to
be refuges of untrammeled nature
Its more like going to a carnival . If you look at the cumulative
impacts, the trends are not good,
said Susan Clark, a Yale
University professor of wildlife
ecology who has been conducting
research in the Yellowstone area
for 48 years. The basic question
is, What is the appropriate relationship with humans and nature?
We as a society have not been
clear about what that ought to be,
and so its really, really messy and
nasty.
Recent events at Yellowstone
grabbed national headlines:

THE DAILY JOURNAL

when contributions go unused.


Weapons-accessory dealer Craig
Berberich, of Bradenton, Florida,
proposed holding public classes
on personal safety. He posted a
link to his business at the bottom
of his appeal. He said he wasnt
trying to promote my business.
Then he added: I hope we didnt
give the impression that we were a
charity.
He said he was shutting down
his appeal. It remained online
over a month later but with
only $100 in donations. Among
his store products: a high-speed
loader for assault weapons.
Efe Atalay, of Clermond,
Florida, raised $1,145 from 81
donors to buy security wands for
nightclub entrances, but didnt
say which clubs and spoke vaguely of lobbying politicians to
require such security measures. He
didnt respond to emails sent to

his GoFundMe address.


Florida charities law generally
requires no filings by crowdfunding campaigns meant for particular victims or their families or in
support of other established charities. That accounts for the vast
majority of appeals. Other states
apply a patchwork of laws.
Yet, crowdfunding campaigns
can distribute aid more quickly
than large bureaucratic funds. And
they have less overhead than traditional charities, with only 8 percent of donations on GoFundMe
going to the website and credit
card fees.
Bobby Whithorne, a GoFundMe
spokesman, said the websites
staffers were vetting the Orlando
campaigns before releasing funds,
and only a small fraction of a percent of past appeals involved outright fraud.
GoFundMe froze funds from

entertainment company manager


David Luchsingers campaign
when donations piled up quickly.
Luchsinger said he was asked for
more details of his plans to
replace the ruined equipment of
one of his deejays who was working at the club during the attack.
Luchsinger set an initial goal of
$5,000, and raised $8,742 in one
month.
Asked about the websites vetting process, he replied, Was it
so strenuous that you couldnt fake
it? No, you could definitely fake
it.
Despite his good intentions,
things got mixed up. He didnt
realize someone else had launched
a GoFundMe appeal for his deejay,
who got his name removed from
the second appeal. Two companies
eventually replaced the equipment
for free, so the deejay kept some
of the donations to replace his

lost salary and shared the rest with


other club deejays, Luchsinger
said.
Several big funds have joined
forces in an official centralized
campaign that raised more than
$23 million, including the $7 million from Equality Floridas
GoFundMe campaign.
The donations to the central
fund are generally tax-deductible,
since they go to registered charities. Donations to a crowdfunding
site are typically not taxdeductible, unless the organizer is
a tax-exempt charity.
The bigger charities unlike
many crowdfunding campaigns
give timetables for distributing
aid, and detail recipients and how
decisions are made. Ken Feinberg,
administrator for the centralized
fund, has already held two town
hall meetings with survivors and
family members of the victims.

A Canadian tourist who put a


bison calf in his SUV hoping to
save it, ending with wildlife workers euthanizing the animal when
they could not reunite it with its
herd.
Three visitors from Asia cited
on separate occasions for illegally collecting water from the parks

A Washington state man killed
after leaving a designated boardwalk and falling into a near-boiling hot spring.
The flouting of park rules stems
from disbelief among visitors that
they will get hurt, said
Yellowstone Superintendent Dan
Wenk. I cant tell you how many
times I have to talk to people and
say, Step back. Theres a dangerous animal, and they look at me
like I have three heads, he said.
Inconsistent record keeping,

including a recent switch to a new


criminal offenses reporting system, makes it difficult to identify
trends that apply uniformly across
the major parks.
But the records reviewed by the
AP reveal the scope of visitor misbehavior is huge. In Yellowstone,
administrators
and
outside
observers including Clark say the
parks problems have become
more acute. That threatens its mission to manage its lands and
wildlife unimpaired for future
generations.
Beyond incidents that lead to
citations are many more that result
in warnings. More than 52,000
warnings were issued in 2015, up
almost 20 percent from the year
before.
Washington state resident Lisa
Morrows son was among the children Gleason led toward the elk.

Despite safety advisories and


numerous examples of visitors
getting gored by bison, mauled by
bears and chased by elk Morrow
declared herself unafraid of the
parks wildlife. She said she was
eager to see a grizzly up close.
I want to see one right there,
Morrow said, pointing to a spot
just feet away. Id throw it a cookie.
The top 10 parks by visitation
collectively hosted almost 44
million people last year, according to National Park Service figures.
Thats a 26 percent increase
from a decade earlier, or more than
9. 1 million new visitors combined at Great Smoky Mountains,
Yellowstone, Grand Canyon,
Yosemite and the other national
parks on the list.
Yellowstone boasts the most

large,
dangerous carnivores
among those parks, but each has
its risks. In Rocky Mountain
National Park, its elk that
become more aggressive during
mating season. In Yosemite, its
towering waterfalls where visitors
insist on swimming near the edge.
In the Grand Canyon, its squirrels
habituated to humans and sometimes quick to bite an outstretched
hand. Wenk said the rise in popularity of social media complicates
keeping visitors safe.
You take a picture of yourself
standing 10 feet in front of a
bison, and all of a sudden a few
hundred people see it, and its
reposted at the same time were
telling everybody wildlife is dangerous, Wenk said. They get
incongruous messages and then it
happens. They get too close, and
the bison charges.
