Irvine neighborhood nervous

IRVINE The neighborhood near
Irvines Silverado Park is on edge following a coyotes attack on a 2-yearold girl.
The Orange County Register reports
that animal control officers were
searching the region for the coyote
after the Friday evening attack.
California Department of Fish and
Wildlifes Lt. Kent Smirl says the girl
was bending over when a coyote came
out of the bushes, jumped on top of her
and grabbed her by the neck.
He says the girl was bruised but not
bitten, so she wont need rabies shots.
Smirl says coyote attacks on humans
are rare but can happen, especially if
people feed the animals.
Irvine Police Department spokeswoman Farrah Emami says the Animal
Services Division is trained to track
and monitor coyote movements.
She says people can scare coyotes off
by appearing bigger and yelling.

Bedwell told authorities that the couple was trying to take a short cut and

Demonstrators target Oaklands


get-tough policy on street protests
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

OAKLAND Police made arrests as


demonstrators marched in downtown
Oakland against the citys new get-tough
policy for monitoring street protests the
second such gathering in as many days.
Officers watched closely Sunday night as
the protesters marched several blocks.
About 100 to 150 people marched before
organizers ended the event and then a group
of 15 to 20 started another protest, spokeswoman Johnna A. Watson said.
There were no reports of injury or vandalism Sunday, but four people were arrested
and another 19 received citations, Watson
said.
A night earlier, dozens of protesters were
arrested or cited for ignoring police orders
to dispurse.
They turned out to oppose a new policy by
the citys mayor to force protesters from the
street to the sidewalk after Oakland experi-

enced several violent demonstrations in the


past year, The Oakland Tribune reported
Sunday. Oakland has hosted rallies in the
streets for years, but Mayor Libby Schaaf
said the new policy is needed to combat
damage to property and violence.
Schaaf said earlier that existing policies
and laws allow police to clear streets of protesters. On May Day, many businesses
along the citys automobile sales district
were badly damaged by protesters who
broke away from the main demonstration on
May 1. Businesses also sustained heavy
damage during protests arising from the
deaths of unarmed black men in police custody in Ferguson, Missouri, and elsewhere
over the last two years.
Tensions rose anew on Thursday when
protesters marched in honor of black
women killed by police across the nation.
But organizers said they were surprised
when Oakland police pushed them off the
streets and onto the sidewalks, citing the

mayors new policy. No one was arrested


Thursday.
Organizers then called for another protest
Saturday to demonstrate against the new
policy.
You cant run roughshod over people
because theyre protesting your oppression, said Cat Brooks, an organizer of
both protests. You cant push us off the
streets.
Further protests over the new policy are
planned, Brooks said.
Rachel Lederman, a lawyer with the
National Lawyers Guild who helped
Oakland craft its crowd-control policies,
said the new tactics appear to violate the
guidelines.
It doesnt make any sense because saying that marches have to be on the sidewalk
has absolutely no relationship to impending property damage that might occur,
Lederman said. Obviously, that would happen on a sidewalk, not a street.

Obituary

Kathryn KayAnn Forman


Kathryn KayAnn Forman died at Peninsula Hospital in Burlingame, California on April 18,
2015. Memorial services will be held on Friday, May 29, 2015 at 2:00 p.m. at Trinity Presbyterian
Church, San Carlos, CA.
Kay was born in Boise, Idaho on August 16, 1948, to Robert and Nellie Yundt. Several years later
she moved to Prineville, Oregon, where her brother and sister were born. In 1957, the family
moved to San Mateo, California. Kay graduated from San Mateo High School in 1966. She worked
for United Airlines from 1969 until her retirement in 2001. While working in Reservations with
United she met the love of her life, Dwight Forman. They were married on March 13, 1971. They
enjoyed forty-four years of marriage and took numerous exciting vacations, traveling around the
globe as well as seeing most of the United States.
Kay had a knack for accomplishing anything that she set her mind to. This included artwork,
swimming, sewing, cross-stitching, writing, playing the piano, reading and dancing. She loved to
write poetry and personalize it for those she loved. Her family thought she was accomplished at
all of these things; however, she would say that her greatest accomplishments were her marriage to
Dwight, her two children and her eight grandchildren. She loved them dearly.
Kay will be remembered for the way she made strangers into friends. She was comfortable chatting
with anyone anywhere at any time. She was a great conversationalist and humorist. She loved a
good joke and enjoyed celebrating any and all holidays. From her childhood Kay exhibited a
deep faith in God, which was evidenced by the way she cared for people and fought for fairness
and justice. In her later years her faith increased and she devoted more time to reading about and
sharing the love of God.
Kay was predeceased in death by her parents. She is survived by her husband, Dwight, her
children, Gabrielle Forman of Fresno, California with five grandchildren, Erik Forman (Laura)
of Brandon, South Dakota with three more grandchildren, her brother, Joseph Yundt (Joelle) of
Ft. Lauderdale, Florida and sister, Marie Kinkaid (Dan) of Boise, Idaho.
The family is very appreciative of the excellent loving care given to Kay by the staff of numerous
medical institutions during these last few years. So many went beyond the call to give her not only
excellent medical attention but personal peace and comfort as well.
Memorial donations may be made to WoundedWarriorProject.org.

State parks officials do not have plans to

Launching campaign, Sanders appeals to partys Warren wing


By Ken Thomas
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

PORTSMOUTH, N.H. For Democrats


who had hoped to lure Massachusetts Sen.
Elizabeth Warren into a presidential campaign, independent Sen. Bernie Sanders
might be the next best thing.
Sanders, who is opening his official
presidential
campaign
Tuesday
in
Burlington, Vermont, aims to ignite a
grassroots fire among left-leaning
Democrats wary of Hillary Rodham
Clinton. He is laying out an agenda in step
with the partys progressive wing and compatible with Warrens platform reining
in Wall Street banks, tackling college debt
and creating a government-financed infrastructure jobs program.

I think our views are


parallel on many, many
issues, Sanders said in
an interview with the
Associated
Press,
describing Warren as a
good friend.
Sanders caucuses with
the
Democrats
in
Washington and is runElizabeth
ning for the Democratic
Warren
nomination. He and
Democratic former Maryland Gov. Martin
OMalley are vying to become the primary
alternative to Clinton. Much of the energy
behind a Clinton alternative has been
directed to drafting Warren, but she has
repeatedly said she wont run.
For Sanders, a key question is electabili-

ty. Clinton is in a commanding position


by any measure. Yet his supporters in New
Hampshire say his local ties and longstanding practice of holding town hall
meetings and people-to-people campaigning a staple in the nations first primary
state could serve him well.
Toward the Vermont border its like a
love-fest for Bernie, said Jerry Curran, an
Amherst, New Hampshire, Democratic
activist who has been involved in the draft
Warren effort. Hes not your milquetoast
left-winger. Hes kind of a badass leftwinger.
A self-described democratic socialist,
Sanders has raised more than $4 million
since announcing in early May that he
would be a presidential candidate. He suggested in the interview that raising $50

million for the primaries was a possibility.


That would be a goal, he said.
He rejects the notion that hes simply in
the race to shape the debate.
Hillary Clinton is a candidate, I am a
candidate, Sanders said. I suspect there
will be other candidates. The people in this
country will make their choice.
Whether Sanders can tap into the partys
Warren wing and influence Clintons policy agenda remains unclear. But he has been
on the forefront of liberal causes as Clinton
has seemed to be tacking to the left.
Clinton regularly refers to an economic
stacked deck against American workers
rhetoric that offers comparisons to
Warrens frequent description of the economic system being rigged against middle-class families.

Cleveland reaches deal with Justice Department on policing


By Eric Tucker
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON The city of Cleveland


has reached a settlement with the U.S.
Justice Department over a pattern of excessive force and civil rights violations by
the police department, and the agreement

could be announced as soon as Tuesday, a


senior federal law enforcement official
said.
The official was not authorized to speak
publicly of the settlement ahead of the official announcement and spoke Monday on
condition of anonymity.
News of the settlement comes days after a

white police officer was acquitted of


manslaughter for firing the final 15 rounds
of a 137-shot police barrage through the
windshield of a car carrying two black,
unarmed suspects in 2012. The suspects
backfiring vehicle had been mistaken for a
gunshot, leading to a high-speed chase
involving 62 police cruisers.

Once the suspects were cornered, 13 officers fired at the car.


The case prompted an 18-month Justice
Department investigation into the practices
of the Cleveland police. In a scathing report
released in December, the department
required the city to devise a plan to reform
the police force.

Obama pays tribute to fallen service members at Arlington


By Darlene Superville
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ARLINGTON, Va. President Barack


Obama on Monday saluted Americans who
died in battle, saying the country must
never stop trying to fully repay them for
their sacrifices. He noted it was the first
Memorial Day in 14 years without U.S.
forces engaged in a major ground war.
Speaking under sunny skies to some
5,000 people in an amphitheater on the hallowed grounds of Arlington National
Cemetery, Obama said the graveyard is
more than a final resting place of heroes.
It is a reflection of America itself, he
said, citing racial and religious diversity in
the backgrounds of the men and woman who
paid the ultimate sacrifice to preserve the
ideals that bind us as one nation.
His appearance is an annual rite for presidents at the cemetery nestled among verdant
hills overlooking the Potomac River. It
came months after the end of the U.S. comREUTERS

In his remarks at Arlington National
Cemetery, Obama said most of the remaining troops should be removed from
Afghanistan by the end of 2016.
He recognized the more than 2, 200
patriots who sacrificed themselves in
Afghanistan, including the final two to be
killed before the U. S. combat mission
ended late last year. He also recognized the
first American killed during the new mission to train Afghan forces, an Army medic
who died in April.
Earlier, troops stationed in that warwracked country observed a moment of
silence in honor of fallen comrades there.
The Arlington observance was among a
host of Memorial Day events nationwide
featuring parades, picnics and tributes.
Presaging Mondays solemn event at
Arlington was the roar of motorcycle
engines throughout the nations capital on
Sunday as thousands of bikers saluted veterans with Rolling Thunders Ride for
Freedom. That was followed by a concert of
patriotic music Sunday evening and
Obamas private breakfast Monday at the
White House with representatives of veteran and military family service organizations. A Memorial Day parade also was held
Monday in downtown Washington.

Twister kills 13 in Mexico
border city; 12 missing in Texas
CIUDAD ACUNA, Mexico A tornado raged through a
city on the U. S. -Mexico border Monday, destroying
homes, flinging cars like matchsticks and ripping an infant
from its mothers arms. At least 13 people were killed,
authorities said.
In Texas, 12 people were reported missing after the vacation home they were staying in was swept away by rushing
floodwaters in a small town popular with tourists.
The baby was also missing after the twister that hit
Ciudad Acuna, a city of 125,000 across from Del Rio, Texas,
sent its infant carrier flying. Rescue workers began digging
through the rubble of damaged homes in a race to find victims.
The twister hit a seven-block area, which Victor Zamora,
interior secretary of the northern state of Coahuila,
described as devastated.
Mayor Evaristo Perez Rivera said 300 people were being
treated at local hospitals, and up to 200 homes had been
completely destroyed. Three people were unaccounted for.
Theres nothing standing, not walls, not roofs, said
Edgar Gonzalez, a spokesman for the city government,
describing some of the destroyed homes in a 3-square kilometer (1 square mile) stretch.

Yemeni politicians say U.N.


peace talks indefinitely postponed
SANAA, Yemen A United Nations-sponsored Yemeni
peace conference that was to start Thursday in Geneva has
been indefinitely postponed, officials said, as battles raged
across the country.
The talks were meant to end weeks of heavy fighting and
Saudi-led airstrikes against an Iran-backed rebel group amid
a humanitarian crisis that has left millions in the Arab
worlds poorest country short of food and fuel.
Three officials from the Houthi, socialist and unionist
parties said late Sunday they were notified the talks had
been postponed and that no new date had been set. All the
officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they
were not authorized to speak to journalists.

[Memorial Day] is about more than
barbecues to us, said Alex Gallardo,
Boyles stepfather. Its a tribute to all
the soldiers who give their lives for us
to be in a free country.
Wanda and Alex Gallardo joined to
lay the Gold Star Wreath during the San
Bruno cemeterys annual service that
drew veterans from all walks of life and
branches of service. Boyles died at 24
years old just months after arriving in
Iraq and weeks before he was scheduled
to return home for the birth of his son.
Wanda Gallardo said shes attended
the annual observance every year since
her son died in 2004, but this was the
first time she participated.
He was a good boy, he was very
patriotic, loved his country, loved his
family. He was just so young, I just
miss him so much, Wanda Gallardo
said before another mother introduced
herself and began to cry as the two
shared a bond of having lost a child
too young.

of lives lived and lost in defense of the

Let freedom ring

Letters to the editor


26, at the Oyster Point Yacht Club, 911
Marina Blvd., South San Francisco.

An advocate for
government transparency
Editor,
Im shocked to hear Commissioner
Sabrina Brennans colleagues may strip her
of the board presidency Tuesday, May 26, at
a special meeting (Harbor District in
chaos in the May 22 edition of the Daily
Journal).
Many citizens concerned about this issue
are away this holiday weekend, and the public has had an advance notice of only three
business days for this special meeting,
scheduled late Wednesday night.
While the board only needs a days notice
to call a special meeting, the speed with
which effort is being made to strip Ms.
Brennan of her position is exceptional and
worrisome.
When Commissioners Holsinger and
Tucker attempted to strip President Bernardo
of his position in 2013, it was at a regular
meeting. No taxpayer funds or staff time
was wasted on a special meeting. Ironically,
Ms. Brennan was the only commissioner
who supported Bernardo against this
action, and in the end Bernardo was able to
nish out his term.
Allegations of harassment must be taken
seriously, but that doesnt mean good solutions lie in reactionary measures that fail
the sniff test for transparency. If Brennans
presidency is to be challenged, she deserves
the dignity President Bernardo was afforded
by the framework of a regular meeting.
Ms. Brennan is the reason board meetings were televised to the public for awhile,
and she is the reason the district is moving
into new ofces that will save taxpayers
money. When the board votes on Tuesday,
they should remember that Brennans welldocumented record as an advocate for government transparency and scal responsibility will speak for itself to county residents.

Wrong subject for Harbor


District special meeting
Editor,
The current subject is reorganize commissioners, when it should be terminating the
employment contract for Glen Lazof
(Harbor District in chaos in the May 22
edition of the Daily Journal). His memo is a
cry for help and also a threat. He has only
been there two weeks and has declared he
wont work well with Sabrina Brennan, the
president of the Board of Commissioners.
That should be enough of a red ag right
there to end the relationship. There must
have been a misunderstanding in the
process somewhere. He doesnt get to pick
and choose who he will work for. Thank
him for his time, give him a check and cut
him loose today.
The meeting is 5:30 p.m., Tuesday, May

Editor,
One year ago, violence struck the college
town of Isla Vista near UC Santa Barbara.
Six people were killed. Three of them were
killed by a gun and 14 were injured. The parents of the shooter contacted law enforcement because they felt their son was at risk
of doing harm. Unfortunately, there were no
legal tools on the books to empower law
enforcement to secure the guns from the
shooter. Now, there is. The Gun Violence
Restraining Order law goes into effect on
Jan. 1, 2016. It will allow family members
or law enforcement to petition a court to
temporarily remove rearms from those type
of individuals providing a tool to reduce
the risk of mass shootings and gun violence
both in the home and on our streets. Finally,
a real solution to a real problem this will
save lives. So as we remember those lives
lost from this incident and the 90 people
that die every day from gun violence, lets
continue to work for real solutions like the
GVRO law.

California farmers
Editor,
According to the May 23 Daily Journal
story, California farmers strike a deal to cut
water use, Any accord with delta farmers
would probably rely largely on the honor
system. California currently does not require
monitoring or meters for superior rights
holders.
Wow! With their income at stake, what
could possibly go wrong? How can those of
us with browning lawns get a deal like that?
Im sure we too are honorable.

is one of main tasks of government (including federal, state and local) to protect the
health, safety and well-being of the citizens
of our country. That means the Foster City
Council has the legal authority to impose a
ban of cigarette smoking in such places as
apartments, townhouses or condos, wherever
there are common walls of residential units,
in the city of Foster City. It has been conclusively proven that secondhand cigarette
smoke can and does penetrate walls and
vents, and that the smoke can negatively
affect other peoples healths. (Why doesnt
anybody read and know the U.S.
Constitution these days?)
Also, Mr. Schwarz continues to use the
word discriminate incorrectly in his writings. Discrimination is dened as failure to
treat all persons equally when no reasonable
distinction can be found between those
favored and those not favored. In this case,
after careful study of this matter, the City
Council enacted an ordinance to ban cigarette smoking in non-single-family residences, and not in single-family residences.
Since the ban is based on fact, it is clearly
not discrimination (Why doesnt anybody
use a dictionary these days?).

No more new housing in Foster City


Editor,
This is in response to Samantha Weigels
article Developer seeks more housing in
Foster City plan (May 8 edition of the
Daily Journal).
No.
No room in our over-crowded schools.
No relief from the drought.
No mitigation for our current trafc issues.
No incremental retail to bring in sales tax
as originally agreed to.
No reason for Foster City residents to forfeit our standard of living while Sares Regis
pockets mega-prots.
It all adds up to a simple and obvious
answer: No more new housing in Foster
City.We have not absorbed the hundreds of
units already under construction, our 20-year
growth plan does not indicate a need for
more beyond what is in progress and there is
no give-back to the community for carrying
this unnecessary incremental load.
A similar reaction applies to the Op-Ed
piece in the same edition (More housing
provides sustainable opportunities by Janet
Borgens and Kaia Eakin).The answer might
not be to build more affordable housing,
the answer might be to create more protections for renters. Overbuilding and overcrowding does not solve income inequality
it creates ghettos for poor people.And
until we build a transit infrastructure that
works, transit-oriented development is
nothing more than a catch-phrase. But
thats a topic for a different letter.

ou may be familiar with the


story behind the moving lyrics
of The Star Spangled Banner.
In the courageous battle at Fort McHenry
in the War of 1812, world-renowned patriot and poet Francis Scott Key helplessly
watched from a great distance as American
troops were bombarded by British forces.
He watched as countless American soldiers fearlessly held high the torn and
bloody American flag before being
slaughtered by British reinforcements. As
soldiers died carrying the flag, others
would quickly
take their place
and continue to
hold high the
colors, only to
succumb to the
same fate. At
dawn, Key was
shocked at the
sight of the battle scene the
flag still stood
high amongst
Jonathan Madison
countless
American bodies. From witnessing the
immortal courage of those soldiers, Key
subsequently wrote our national anthem
that you and I know today.
I often emphasize with humility in my
column the inevitably short lives that
you and I possess. This is not intended to
frighten you about the fact that tomorrow
is not promised rather, the emphasis is
intended to draw your attention to the
limitless value in every breath we take
and every moment we witness. This humble understanding of our fate is what
makes us appreciate those who sacrifice
their lives for others.
Indeed, nothing moves our spirits to a
more patriotic place than the brave men
and women who proudly defend our country from every shore with the most valuable possession they hold dear their
lives. In spite of the endless debates we
often have about our various ideologies
and differing opinions on public policies,
our soldiers love and believe in the values
of our country enough to risk their lives
for the longevity of our state. These individuals fight for our freedom, regardless
of their political views, or ours for that
matter.
Our strong national defense has played
a pivotal role in enabling our countrys
longevity and to preserve other democracies across the globe. Their sacrifices
have made possible what many deemed
impossible for decades, such as the collapse of the Berlin Wall, becoming the
largest engine of economic freedom the
world has ever known following World
War II, and liberating Europe from tyranny.
Just remember, soldiers, most of whom
you have never met, are sacrificing their
lives for you every day. As such, I would
like to dedicate this column to the veterans who have courageously defended our
nation. While I am proud to note that yesterday was Memorial Day, we should not
let a day go by without recognizing our
veterans in some capacity. Freedom rings
in our country every day because of the
sacrifices our veterans make, and we
should continue to faithfully stand behind
them.

In Rhode Island, residents gush about paid family leave


By Jennifer McDermott
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

PROVIDENCE, R.I. As
President Barack Obama pushes for
a federal law to get paid leave to
care for a new baby or an ailing relative, residents of one of the three
states that already provide it sing
its praises, hinting at the reception
it could receive if rolled out nationally.
Rhode Island last year began
allowing workers to take up to four
weeks of paid leave. Many workers
say they love the program, and
employers say it hasnt hurt business as some had feared.

Anne Quirk, of Providence, had


planned to take three months of
unpaid leave from her job as a
speech language pathologist after
she gave birth. But she needed five
months off after her doctor ordered
her on bedrest on Mothers Day
last year; then, her son was born
prematurely in June.
It was just such a stress reliever,
knowing there was going to be
money to help us pay the bills,
said Quirk, who gushed about the
program to Obama when he visited
Rhode Island in October. I dont
know what we wouldve done without it.
About 5,000 people have taken

paid family leave in Rhode Island


so far. New Jersey and California
are the other states that provide it,
and several states are considering
it. Washington state passed legislation but has put off implementing it.
The United States is the only
industrialized nation that doesnt
mandate paid leave for mothers of
newborns. Obama wants Congress
to allocate more than $2 billion to
help states create paid family and
medical leave programs, and he
wants to provide federal workers
with additional paid leave.
Rhode Island has a long-standing program that pays a portion of

an employees salary when he or


she is unable to work because of
illness or injury. The temporary
caregiver insurance program was
folded into that existing program
to compensate workers who leave
their jobs temporarily to care for a
relative or bond with a new baby.
Workers pay for both through a
payroll deduction. The benefit for
family leave amounts to about 60
percent of an employees regular
paycheck, capped at $770 per
week. Employees received a total
of $6.3 million in payments in
2014.
Not every worker can get the
benefit. Some havent paid enough

into the system, and public-sector


employees dont pay for the insurance.
Obama said during the October
visit that Rhode Island has got the
right idea and that the nation
needs to broaden its laws for family
leave. Hillary Rodham Clinton,
seeking to succeed Obama as president, advocated for it in a Mothers
Day campaign video.
Democrats havent been able to
garner enough support for a bill in
Congress to allow workers to earn
up to seven days of paid sick leave
to care for themselves or a sick relative, obtain preventive care or
treat domestic violence.

Tatola rides the wind into CCS T&F finals


By Terry Bernal

Athlete of the Week

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Fortunes are smiling on Eddie Tatola.


Sequoias senior track and field standout
caught a break last week when MenloAthertons Bryce Rodgers the Peninsula
Athletic League champion in the discus
throw had to scratch from the Central
Coast Section trials due to a scheduling conflict.
What that meant to Tatola was a berth in

Eddie Tatola

the CCS trials for the second consecutive year. The


senior had placed sixth at
the PAL Championships
May 16 at Westmoors
Powell Stadium, leaving
him on place shy of qualifying for CCS. When
Rodgers was scratched,
however, Tatola gained

the golden ticket.


Not only did Tatola make the most of his
chance Saturday at San Jose City College by
qualifying for the CCS finals in the discus
throw with a fourth-place finish from a field
of 32. In the process, the senior upped his
personal record by 14 feet with a throw of
143 feet, 10 inches, for which he has been
named the San Mateo Daily Journal Athlete
of the Week.

Not bad for a two-sport athlete who is first


and foremost a football player. Tatola
who plans to play on the gridiron at
College of San Mateo next season didnt
even have the CCS finals on his radar entering into his senior season.
It wasnt even one of my goals, Tatola
said. It was crazy. I would have never even
made it to CCS trials if [Rodgers] hadnt
scratched.

James Harden, right, scored a playoff career-high 45 points Monday to help the Rockets stay alive in the Western Conference finals.

Rockets claim Game 4


By Kristie Rieken
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

HOUSTON James Harden was not happy


after a poor performance in Houstons embarrassing loss to Golden State in Game 3.
Coach Kevin McHale told him the best
thing to do was take that frustration out on
the other team.
Harden did just that, scoring a playoff
career-high 45 points as the Rockets led from

start to finish to avoid elimination in the


Western Conference finals with a 128-115
victory over the Warriors on Monday night.
James had a phenomenal game, McHale
said.
The Rockets had a big lead after tying a
playoff record with 45 points in the first quarter before Stephen Curry landed on his head in
a nasty spill midway through the second and
missed about 12 minutes.
Curry said he went through the concussion

protocol before returning.


It was all minor stuff compared to how it
looked, Curry said. But Ill get some good
rest (Monday night) and be ready to go ...
since it happened to now, nothing has gotten worse.
His first field goal after returning came
on a 3-pointer that got Golden State within
six points with less than 8 1/2 minutes

ont tell Hillsdales Bailey


Nestor and Kelly Miller that
softball isnt a contact sport.
Both were involved in scary collisions
during the Knights 5-2 victory over
Woodside in the Central Coast Section
Division II quarternals Saturday afternoon at Hawes Park in Redwood City.
They were both down for a combined
few minutes, but thankfully, neither
appeared the worse for wear. After a short
stint on the bench to take inventory,
both returned to the
game.
In the top of the
sixth inning,
Woodsides
Stephanie Schoeld
sent a pitch into
the gap in rightcenter eld. Nestor,
the center elder,
went streaking
across the outeld
left to right. Right
elder Caitlin Chan
was moving right to left and you could
see the collision was on course.
At the last second, both swerved away
from each other, but Nestor still clipped
Chan, which sent Nestor spiraling to the
turf. She eventually got up and walked to
the dugout under her own power. She was
sheepishly smiling when she got to the
bench, telling everyone she was ne. She
was back on defense to start the next
inning.
Miller was involved in her own nasty
spill in that same sixth inning, nine
pitches after Nestor went off.
Woodsides Lexi Riccardi hit a routine
grounder to Miller at rst base, a ball that
hugged the line. Miller reached down to
grab it, bobbled it and dropped it right on
the base line. She went to all fours to
pick it up again. Just as she did, she got
run over by Riccardi. Miller held up her

Giants stage 6th-inning comeback in Milwaukee


By Colin Fly
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MILWAUKEE After a late-night arrival,


the San Francisco Giants thought theyd
quickly caught a bizarre break Khris
Davis was called out for missing the plate
on his home run trot.
Davis wound up with his homer after
Milwaukee challenged the ruling. Hunter
Pence and the Giants got the win, though,
rallying past the Brewers 8-4 Monday afternoon.
In the first inning, Davis pointed in the

crowd in celebration and skipped across the


plate. It appeared to both umpire Will Little
and Giants catcher Andrew Susac that the
back of Davis right foot failed to touch
down on the dish.
Before Ryan Braun stepped in, the Giants
appealed. Pitcher Tim Lincecum lobbed the
ball to Susac, who stepped on the plate.
Davis was declared out.
I knew he didnt, said Susac, who stood
next to Little for a close-up view as Davis
came by. The thing was, I asked the
umpire, you know I know hes not going to
tell me whether he knows or not, but I said

as soon as he did it, It looked like he


missed it.
Giants manager Bruce Bochy came out of
the dugout before the out call. Brewers manager Craig Counsell then walked onto the
field to contest the decision.
After a replay review that took several
minutes, the home run counted. Davis
stomped firmly in the middle of the plate
after hitting another solo home run in the
third.
Davis was in no mood to talk about the
odd sequence. He repeated several different
variations of the same phrase to deflect

attention away from the play.


Its not about me, its about the team, he
said.
Pences two-run double capped a sevenrun rally in the sixth. Center fielder Carlos
Gomez made two errors in the inning.
The Giants trailed 4-1 before eight
straight batters reached in one stretch. After
Angel Pagan struck out for the second time
in the inning, Pences double off the left
field wall made it 8-4.

Delta falters
on final day
of titlequest
By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Former Serra star Collin Theroux


helped his San Joaquin Delta team
back to the community college
baseball final four. But for the second straight year, the Mustangs
fell to Orange Coast College in the
championship game.
Orange Coast College repeated
with a 9-4 win over Delta
Monday at Fresno City College.
The two teams opened the doubleelimination tournament Saturday
with Orange Coast shutting out
Delta 5-0.
By virtue of dropping to the losers bracket, Delta was forced to
play an additional game Sunday.
The Mustangs also would have had
to defeat Orange Coast twice
Monday to win the title.
Theroux hit safely in each of
Deltas four games in the tourney,
going 5 for 12 with five RBIs.
After dropping Saturdays opener, the Mustangs won both games
of a Sunday doubleheader, topping
Fresno City 13-2 before downing
Palomar 14-7. Both were elimination games.
The Mustangs finished the season with the best record in the
state at 41-7. They were the only
team to reach the 40-win plateau.
After starting the season with a
program-record 28-game winning
streak, they never lost back-toback games.

Sara Cisneros dominated both sides


of the ball in Mills playoff opener.

ara Ci s n e ro s , Mi l l s
s o f t b al l . The Vikings
won their CCS Division
III playoff opener over Carmel
with Cisneros giving a near-flawless performance both sides of the
ball. In the circle, she fired a onehitter in the shortened five-inning
mercy-rule game, striking out
eight. At the plate, she was 3 for 3
with two doubles and two RBIs.
Gabri el l a Zucchi atti , Mi l l s

games, the junior catcher reached
base in five out of six plate appearances. She opened the playoff with
two walks, an RBI single and a
stolen base in an 11-1 win over
Pinewood. In the Vikings 8-1 loss
to Notre Dame-Belmont, Zucchiatti
reached base all three times she
came to the plate. She accounted for
Mills only run when she hammered
a solo home run to center. She later
reached on a fielders choice.

Jo e Prat t ,
Carl mo n t

Scots cruised to
a 4-0 victory
over Palo Alto
in the CCS
Open Division
opener. Paly
entered play
Joe Pratt
hitting .306 as
a team, but Pratt was a neutralizer,
firing a one-hit shutout to lead
Carlmont to its first win ever in
this the second year of the Open
Division format.
Ry an Gi berto n, Carl mo nt
bas ebal l . The senior followed
Pratts stellar performance with
one of his own. The Scots topped
St. Francis CCC-Watsonville 2-1
in a 13-inning marathon in
Saturdays CCS Open Division
quarterfinals. Giberton gave the
Scots 6 2/3 innings of shutout
relief, allowing just three hits to
earn the win.

the CCS finals in both the shot put

in the shot put with a toss of 37-6

in discus with a throw of 122-10.
To mmy Lo pi paro , Sequo i a

through Sequoias two wins to
open play in the CCS Division I
bracket. The highlight was during
a five-run rally in the eighth
inning of Saturdays 5-1 win over
Monta Vista. With the Cherokees
trailing 1-0, Lopiparo doubled to
score Alex Valverde from first base
with the tying run. Lopiparo then
scored the go-ahead run on an
infield grounder off the bat of Kasi

the most impressive no-decisions
in baseball history. In the Gators
eventual 1-0 win in 11 innings over

CCS Division II playoffs,
Johnston worked 10 shutout
innings. He ultimately allowed
three hits, but fired 7 2/3 innings of
no-hit baseball until surrendering
the first Palma hit with two outs in

INDIANAPOLIS Authorities say 176 people were


arrested at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway over race weekend, mostly for alcohol-related infractions, marking a 17

runs and stole two bases.
Ro Mahanty, Hi l l s dal e bas ebal l . The Knights went large in
last Wednesdays CCS Division II
opener with a 10-run rule victory
over Summit Prep. Mahanty starred
both sides of the ball. He fired a
five-inning, one-hit shutout on the
mound to earn his 10th win of the
season. At the plate, he was 2 for 3
with a double and three stolen
bases. The senior won the pitching
triple crown in the PAL Ocean
Division, pacing all hurlers with 10
wins, a 1.14 ERA and 77 strikeouts.
Dav i d Hermann, Arag o n
bas ebal l . The right-hander earned
a win and a save through the Dons
first two wins in the CCS Division
II bracket. He closed out a 6-4 victory over Soledad in last Wednesdays
playoff opener. In Saturdays 10-5
win over Live Oak, Hermann went
the distance to earn the victory,
improving his record to 7-2.

If you were ever to watch him throw he muscles it,


Sequoia coach Ofa Taimani said. There was not technique.
So in the last month, weve really worked on it.
When he stepped into the pit Saturday, his preparation
met opportunity when a gust from the gods helped his final
throw on the windy day in San Jose.
With Eddie the time he threw, he just threw it perfectly, Taimani said. He planted that left foot and just
whipped it. It just caught the wind and it just carried it.
At the start of the season during a dual meet at Westmoor,
Tatola set his personal record with a throw of 130-9. The
record stood until Saturday, when he re-upped it three times.
His first throw was good for 138-4. His second throw went
138-9. But then he fell far short of the trend with a third
throw of 115 feet.
So, with his immediate family in attendance his father,
mother, brother and sister all made the trip to SJCC to root
him on he found inspiration to get his auspicious day
back on track.
Thats when I thought to myself, I looked over at my
family, and thought I had to give it all Ive got, Tatola said.
From a mechanical standpoint, his final throw was unlike
anything Tatola had ever felt, he said.
I felt a whip in my arm, Tatola said. It was something
I had never felt all season or even in my whole four years.
Having entered the event ranked 16th in CCS, his 143-10
saw him skyrocket to fourth place.
Right after I got the marks, [my family] started cheering,
so it felt good, Tatola said.
Tatola was of two Sequoia boys to qualify for the CCS
finals. The other was middle-distance runner Eduardo
Barrera, who won his heat in the 400-meter dash to qualify
for his first ever CCS finals.
With Tatola and Barrera advancing, Sequoia head coach
Don Wetteland was thrilled. I have both my Eddies in the
finals, Wetteland said.
Barrera wasnt quite as thrilled. The senior who will run at
the University of La Verne next season had his sights set on
advancing in the 200 and the 400. But with his initial trial
run in the 400 falling well short of a personal record he
crossed the finish line in 50.44 seconds is took him out
of his head for the rest of the day, including an angry performance in the 200 that saw him fall short of qualifying
standards.
[The 400] was a solid performance, Barrera said. I feel
like I was running a consistent time given my previous
times. It was disappointing because I didnt run the time I
want to. I did qualify for the CCS finals though.
CCS finals begin Friday at SJCC.

thrilled to be
back with As
By Janie McCauley
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

OAKLAND Ron Washington arrived to


the ballpark at 8:30 a.m. for an afternoon
game on Memorial Day, had some breakfast
then headed outside to hang out with the
grounds crew he knows so well. He waved to
ushers and caught up with security guards.
Washington is thrilled to be back in a big
league uniform at 63, and
back in the familiar Bay
Area with the As.
He spent 11 seasons as
an As coach before
becoming Texas manager
in 2007 and leading the
Rangers to a pair of AL
pennants in 2010-11.
Washington re-joined
Ron
Washington Oakland as a coach
Friday at Tampa Bay after
leaving his New Orleans home. He can be in
uniform but not on the bench for games.
As some members of the As took infield
practice, Washington took it in while leaning against a small equipment truck, cup of
coffee in hand. He said he is getting in
shape again working with infielders after
not doing so regularly for a years.
Six-time Gold Glove third baseman Eric
Chavez presented Washington with his third
Gold Glove award after acknowledging what
Washington meant to his career.
Washington managed Texas for nearly
eight years before resigning last
September to focus on an off-the-field
personal matter.
Now, his challenge is to help guide a
defense that led the majors with 46 errors
16 by shortstop Marcus Semien going
into Mondays game against Detroit.

Ducks take 3-2 DUBS


series lead with
wild home win

Continued from page 11

By Greg Beacham
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ANAHEIM Matt Beleskey scored 45


seconds into overtime, and the Anaheim
Ducks beat the Chicago Blackhawks 5-4 on
Monday night in Game 5 to take a 3-2 lead
in the Western Conference finals.
Chicago captain Jonathan Toews scored
two stunning goals in 72 seconds late in
regulation to force overtime, but Beleskey barreled into the crease and
scored on a rebound of
Ryan Keslers shot, flying through the air in celebration.
Kesler
and
Sami
Vatanen had a goal and an
assist apiece for the
Jonathan
Ducks, who moved to the
Toews
brink of their first trip to
the Stanley Cup finals since 2007.
Corey Crawford made 23 saves for the
Blackhawks, who had won four overtime
games already in this postseason, including
two in this series. They had all the momentum heading to OT after Toews silenced
Honda Center until Beleskey swooped in.
Game 6 is Wednesday in Chicago.
Cam Fowler and Kesler scored 32 seconds
apart in a three-goal first period for the

on Wednesday night.
Houston bounced back from a 3-1 deficit
to the Clippers in the conference semifinals.
But they face a much bigger challenge in
this series, as no team in NBA history has
won a playoff series after trailing 3-0.
Dwight Howard had 14 points and 12
rebounds, and received a flagrant 1 foul early
in the third quarter after throwing an elbow
at Andrew Boguts head. He would be suspended by accumulation of flagrant foul
points if the NBA upgrades it to a flagrant 2
after review.
The Warriors made 20 3-pointers and
Houston had 17 to set an NBA record for most
3-pointers combined in a playoff game.
The Warriors used the Hack-A-Shaq technique on Josh Smith and got two 3-pointers
from Curry to go on a 10-2 run to get within
10 with 4 minutes remaining. A dunk by
Andre Iguodala got them within eight with

about 2 minutes left, but Harden answered


with a 3-pointer to shut the door.
Curry was injured after he jumped in the air
as Trevor Ariza was about to go up for a shot.
Ariza saw him and stopped abruptly, causing
Curry to be upended in midair when he
crashed into Arizas shoulder. His head hit
the court and it propelled him up and back
onto the floor, where he remained for several minutes.
Curry looked dazed as he was attended to
before slowly getting up and walking off the
court.
I saw him kind of flip over ... Ariza,
Golden State coach Steve Kerr said.
Obviously thats always scary.
Ariza didnt realize who it was that sailed
over him until the play was over.
I was just trying to pump fake and get
somebody off their feet, Ariza said. I didnt
know that he flipped over ... it wasnt intentional or anything like that.

Bears release Sharapova, Berdych advance at French Open


McDonaldafter
Monday arrest
By Samuel Petrequin
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

By Kristin J. Bender and Andrew Seligman


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO The Chicago Bears


released defensive end Ray McDonald following a domestic violence arrest in
Northern California that police say
stemmed from an assault on a woman who
was holding a baby.
McDonald was taken into custody at 7
a.m. Monday on suspicion of domestic violence and child endangerment, Santa Clara
police Lt. Kurt Clarke said.
Police say the assault happened at his
home in Santa Clara. He was found about
three hours later at a home in San Jose and
arrested.
Police did not disclose if the woman or the
baby were injured.
The Chicago Bears released a statement
Monday afternoon about the decision to let
McDonald go.
We believe in second chances, but when
we signed Ray we were very clear what our
expectations were if he was to remain a Bear,
General Manager Ryan Pace said in the statement. He was not able to meet the standard,
and the decision was made to release him.
Bears guard Kyle Long quickly reacted to
the move by tweeting Good riddance.
Chicago signed McDonald to a one-year
contract in late March knowing it was a
gamble given his history of legal issues.
Chairman George McCaskey even
acknowledged at the time that he initially
told Pace not to go after him. But McCaskey
came away impressed from a face-to-face
conversation that he described as very candid, very forthright and difficult after
McDonald paid his way to Chicago.
In December, the San Francisco 49ers
released the 30-year-old, citing a pattern of
poor decision-making.
In letting him go late in the season, 49ers
General Manager Trent Baalke said, Rays
demonstrated a pattern of poor decisionmaking that has led to multiple distractions
to this organization and this football team
that really can no longer be tolerated.
His release from San Francisco came just a
month after the Santa Clara County district
attorneys office announced it had declined
to file charges against McDonald in a separate domestic violence investigation stemming from an arrest on Aug. 31 while celebrating his 30th birthday at his Northern
California home.

PARIS Maria Sharapova was unfazed by


the boos she heard when leaving the center
court of Roland Garros on Monday without
treating the crowd to a post-match interview. After all, she had good reasons to rush
to the locker room.
Battling a cold that had her coughing at
times during the match, the defending champion was not in the mood for small talk after
beating Kaia Kanepi 6-2, 6-4 in the first
round, having been made to work harder
than the scoreline suggested.
Of course I totally understand, everyone
usually does post-interviews and answers a
few questions to the crowd, said
Sharapova. Its absolutely normal. Im not
making any excuses, but Ive got to do what
I have to do.
The second-seeded Sharapova, who completed a career Grand Slam in Paris when she
first won the title in 2012, is trying to
become the first woman to successfully
defend her crown at the clay-court tournament since Justine Henin in 2007.
She also entered last years French Open
nursing an illness.
I got sick a week before the tournament,
not right before, she said. So I guess its a
little bit better timing. But its just the way
it is. Im getting over it, and hopefully it
will pass by soon.
Sporting an elegant striped long-sleeved
shirt, Sharapova made 21 unforced errors
and dropped her serve once in each set as
Kanepi responded to her forehand attacks
with powerful groundstrokes. The gritty
Estonian saved a match point in the final
game, before a double-fault gave Sharapova
the win.
I had a tough opponent ahead of me,
Sharapova said. Overall Im just happy I
got through and have a day off tomorrow,
and I should be better by then.

Venus, who was beaten by younger sister
Serena in the 2002 final, lost 7-6 (5), 6-1 to
40th-ranked Sloane Stephens, a 22-year-old
up-and-coming American player.
In mens play, Tomas Berdych began his
quest for a first Grand Slam title with an easy
6-0, 7-5, 6-3 win over Japanese qualifier
Yoshihito Nishioka and third-seeded Andy
Murray eased past lucky loser Facundo
Arguello 6-3, 6-3, 6-1.
In an era dominated by Novak Djokovic,
Rafael Nadal, Roger Federer and Murray,
winning a major might sometimes look
beyond reach. But the big-hitting Czech is
not giving up hope.
Everything has been aimed for this tournament, the fourth-seeded Berdych said.
Im feeling well. Im feeling physically,
mentally strong, and thats the best possible start that I can have.

Russia plans to use prison labor for 2018 World Cup


By James Ellingworth
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MOSCOW Russian authorities want to


use prison labor to drive down the costs of
holding the 2018 World Cup.
The Russian prison service is backing a
bid by Alexander Khinshtein, a lawmaker
from the ruling United Russia party, to
allow prisoners to be taken from their
camps to work at factories, with a focus on
driving down the costs of building materials

for World Cup projects.


Russian prison labor schemes have faced
allegations that prisoners are routinely
underpaid or forced to work long hours. In
2013, the then-imprisoned Pussy Riot band
member Nadezhda Tolokonnikova went on
hunger strike in protest at working conditions in her prison camp.
Russias Federal Penitentiary Service has
been working with Khinshtein to draw up the
proposals, said the lawmaker, adding that
they will be submitted to parliament soon.

French Open that year. The Czech is playing


at Roland Garros for the 12th consecutive
time and has reasons to believe he can
match his best result in the French capital.
After hiring Andy Murrays former coach
Dani Vallverdu, Berdych has been in consistent form this year, reaching the semifinals
at the Australian Open and finishing runnerup in Doha, Rotterdam and, more recently,
at the Monte Carlo Masters. But he wants
more.
Being closer or not closer in the end
doesnt really matter, Berdych said. Just
the winners are counting, and thats how it
is.
Berdych has been a permanent member of
the Top 10 over the past five years. He has
however failed to achieve what Stan
Wawrinka did at the Australian Open last
year, when he became the first man from
outside the Big Four to win a major since
2009, before Marin Cilic won the US Open.
There is the fact that there are other guys
who have Grand Slam titles and I dont
have, he said. The only thing I can do
about it is try to change that, just try to take
my chances.
On a cool and breezy day, the hot-tempered Fabio Fognini kept his cool as the
28th-seeded Italian dispatched another
Japanese player, Tatsuma Ito, 6-3, 6-2, 6-2.
No. 11 Feliciano Lopez of Spain became the
highest seeded man to tumble so far, losing
6-3, 7-6 (9), 6-3 to 74th-ranked Teymuraz
Gabashvili of Russia.
Radek Stepanek, the oldest man in the
draw at 36, progressed with a four-set win
over Ivan Dodig while the youngest man to
compete bowed out in straight sets. Making
his debut at a Grand Slam tournament, 17year-old Frances Tiafoe lost 6-2, 6-1, 6-4 to
36th-ranked Martin Klizan of Slovakia.
Also, former world No. 2 number and
2012 Wimbledon finalist Agnieszka
Radwanska lost in the first round for the
first time since her 2007 debut at the claycourt Grand Slam, bowing out 6-2, 3-6, 6-1
against Annika Beck.

Denver beats Maryland 10-5 for 1st NCAA mens lacrosse title

PHILADELPHIA When Bill Tierney

Loeb denied Stanford its 15th

Zhao led 1-0 in the second set
when play was suspended. The
match was moved across the street
to Baylors indoor facility.
Loeb held serve when play
resumed to make it 1-1 in the second set and appeared to have
momentum with a break for a 4-3
lead. But Zhao broke to get even,
then won the set on a double-fault
by Loeb, forcing the third set that

Can Marriage Exist Between

Science And Religion?


By Paul Larson
MILLBRAE

Some
say
that
science and religion
dont mix. Some
say that science is
the ultimate search
for God. Some say
religion supersedes
science, some say both have equal stature
and others say both are hogwash. Everyone
has their own personal assessment of the
correlation between science and religion.
The aspiration of religion along with the
aspiration of science is to explain the
universe and answer questions about life, in
addition to satisfying human psychological
needs when dealing with the realities of
death. Religion is based on faith, science is
based on observation, and both are based on
human curiosity and the need to find
answers. Whether a person is repetitively
reading religious scripture, or fascinated by
repeatable scientific experimentations, both
are searching for methods that answer
questions about the universe around us.
It can be debated that early humans
turned to religion as a way to alleviate their
fears and gain reassurance with the concept
of life after death. This helped to give them
a sense of order in a confusing world that
often seemed mysterious.
Eventually
scientific realization evolved along side
religion and the process of trial and error
established itself as a way to solve some of
these mysteries. Firethe wheelfarming.
The more humans observed the world they
lived in, the more they leaned how the
natural world worked and how they could
manipulate it to their advantage. Over the
centuries religious power came at odds with
scientific discovery, which led to a period of

scientific stagnation: The Dark Ages.


Later at the dawn of The Renaissance
science was again embraced leading to great
advances in art, architecture, medicine,
astronomy and other natural sciences. Over
the ages science and religion have been
evolving together on a roller coaster ride of
acceptance, denial and equilibrium.
We now appear to be at a crossroads
where religion is not only viewing science
with an evaluative broadmindedness, but is
exploring hand in hand with scientific
processes.
One prime example is the
Vaticans
Pontifical
Academy
of
Sciences. Quoting John Paul II: ...today
eminent scientists are members a visible
sign of the profound harmony that can
exist between the truths of science and the
truths of faith.... Gregor Mendel, the father
of Genetics, was an Augustinian Friar.
Georges Lemaitre, who developed much of
the Big Bang Theory, was a Belgian priest.
Recently, Pope Francis, who has a Masters
Degree in Chemistry, insisted that there is
no reason to believe that science and God
are incompatible.
With all this in mind, every human being
is unique as a fingerprint, and every human
brain has its own unique consciousness.
Whether you analyze with your religious cap
or your science cap, matrimony between the
two could be found by looking inward. So,
close your eyes, examine your deep
thoughts, and you may detect a rational
enlightenment finely attuned to both.

Peeking into healthy


peoples brains to see if
Alzheimers is brewing
By Lauran Neergaard
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Sticky plaque gets the


most attention, but now healthy seniors at
risk of Alzheimers are letting scientists
peek into their brains to see if another culprit is lurking.
No one knows what actually causes
Alzheimers, but the suspects are its two
hallmarks the gunky amyloid in those
brain plaques or tangles of a protein named
tau that clog dying brain cells. New imaging can spot those tangles in living
brains, providing a chance to finally better understand what triggers dementia.
Now researchers are adding tau brain
scans to an ambitious study thats testing
if an experimental drug might help healthy
but at-risk people stave off Alzheimers.
Whether that medication works or not, its
the first drug study where scientists can
track how both of Alzheimers signature
markers begin building up in older adults
before memory ever slips.
The combination of amyloid and tau is
really the toxic duo, predicted Dr. Reisa
Sperling of Bostons Brigham and
Womens Hospital and Harvard Medical
School, who is leading the so-called A4
study. To see it in life is really striking.
The A4 study it stands for AntiAmyloid Treatment in Asymptomatic
Alzheimers aims to enroll 1, 000
healthy seniors like Judith Chase Gilbert,
77, of Arlington, Virginia. The recently
retired government worker is mentally

sharp but learned through the study that


her brain harbors amyloid buildup that
might increase her risk. Last week,
researchers slid Gilbert into a doughnutshaped PET scanner as she became one of
the first study participants to also have
their brains scanned for tau.
We know that tau starts entering the
picture at some point, and we do not know
when. We do not know how that interaction happens. We should know, said chief
science officer Maria Carrillo of the
Alzheimers Association, which is pushing to add tau scans to other dementia
More than 35 million people worldwide have Alzheimers or similar dementias, including
research, too.
More than 35 million people worldwide about 5 million in the U.S. Those numbers are expected to rise rapidly as the baby boomers
have Alzheimers or similar dementias, get older.
including about 5 million in the U. S.
Those numbers are expected to rise rapidly
as the baby boomers get older. There is no
good treatment. Todays medications only
temporarily ease symptoms and attempts
at new drugs, mostly targeted at sticky
amyloid, have failed in recent years.
Maybe thats because treatment didnt
start early enough. Scientists now think
Alzheimers begins quietly ravaging the
brain more than a decade before symptoms
appear, much like heart disease is triggered
by gradual cholesterol buildup. Brain
scans show many healthy older adults quietly harbor those sticky amyloid plaques,
not a guarantee that theyll eventually get
Alzheimers but an increased risk.
Yet more recent research, including a

Study: Europeans to get more ragweed with global warming


By Seth Borenstein

Climate change, as well as


increased carbon dioxide by itself, can
contribute to increased production of plant-based allergens.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Global warming will


bring much more sneezing and wheezing
to Europe by mid-century, a new study
says.
Ragweed pollen levels are likely to
quadruple for much of Europe because
warmer temperatures will allow the plants
to take root more, and carbon dioxide will
make them grow more, says a study published Monday in the journal Nature
Climate Change. Other factors not related
to man-made climate change will also
contribute.

Michael Kolian, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency climate scientist

Ragweed isnt native to Europe, but was


imported from America in the late 19th
century. It hasnt quite become established all over the continent, at least not
yet.
Parts of France, the United Kingdom and
Germany dont have the allergens now,
but they will by 2050, says study coauthor Robert Vautard, a climate scientist

Do You Want A Whiter, Brighter Smile?

at the Climate and Environment Sciences


Laboratory in Yvette, France. That
includes Paris, where Vautard lives.
As warmer temperatures and higher carbon dioxide concentrations allow ragweed
to become more vigorous and invade further north, we can expect to see many
more allergy sufferers, said Daniel
Chapman, an invasive species expert at
the Centre for Ecology and Hydrology in
Edinburgh, Scotland. He did not take part
in the study, but praised it.
The researchers used computer simulations with different scenarios of carbon
dioxide pollution for the next 35 years.

large autopsy study from the Mayo Clinic,


suggests that Alzheimers other bad actor
that tangle-forming tau protein also
plays a big role. The newest theory:
Amyloid sparks a smoldering risk, but
later spread of toxic tau speeds the brain
destruction.
Normal tau acts sort of like railroad
tracks to help nerve cells transport food
and other molecules. But in Alzheimers,
the proteins strands collapse into tangles
and eventually the cell dies. Most healthy
people have a small amount of dysfunctional tau in one part of the brain by their
70s, Sperling said. But amyloid plaques
somehow encourage this bad tau to spread
toward the brains memory center, she
explained.
The A4 study, which is enrolling participants in the U. S. , Australia and Canada,
may give some clues.
The goal is to check up to 500 people
for tau three times over the three-year
study, as researchers tease out when and
how it forms in those who are still
healthy. They wont be told the results
scientists dont know enough yet about
what the scans portend.
At the same time, study participants

change in emissions from coal, oil and


gas, the computer runs predicted increases
in the annual pollen count of 100 to
1, 100 percent, with a general average of
around 300 percent, Vautard said.
Land use and the way the non-native
plants take over new areas account for
about one-third of the increased ragweed
counts, with climate change the rest,
Vautard said.
Earlier studies show that ragweed pollen
season in North America has already
extended by as much as three weeks in
some northern locales, partly because of
climate change.
U. S. Environmental Protection Agency
climate scientist Michael Kolian, who
wasnt part of the new study, said the
French study fits with previous research
and the U. S.
National
Climate
Assessment, which concluded climate
change, as well as increased carbon dioxide by itself, can contribute to increased
production of plant-based allergens.
researchers track their memory.
The $140 million study is funded by the
National Institutes of Health, Lilly and
others; the Alzheimers Association
helped fund the addition of the tau scans.
The idea: If the drug proves to be helpful, it might be tamping down amyloid
formation that in turn reins in toxic tau.
In previous studies, solanezumab failed to
help full-blown Alzheimers but appeared
to slow mental decline in patients with
mild disease, raising interest in testing
the still healthy.
Were trying to remove amyloids
downstream effects on tau formation,
said Dr. R. Scott Turner of Georgetown
University Medical Center, where Gilbert
enrolled in the study.
Seeing how amyloid and tau interact in
living brains is opening a whole new
chapter into possible therapies, Turner
added.
For Gilbert, learning she had amyloid
buildup was distressing, but it has
prompted her to take extra steps, in addition to the study, to protect her brain. On
her doctors advice, shes exercising
more, and exercising her brain in a new
way by buying a keyboard to start piano
lessons.
Its exciting to be part of something
thats cutting edge, said Gilbert, who had
never heard of tau before.
And she has a spot-on question: So
whats the medication for the tau?
Stay tuned: A handful of drugs to target
tau also are in development but testing
will take several years.

Ugly potential fallout


from Supreme Court
health care law case
By Ricardo Alonso Zaldivar
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON A Supreme Court ruling


due in a few weeks could wipe out health
insurance for millions of people covered by
President Barack Obamas health care law.
But its Republicans not White House
officials who have been talking about
damage control.
A likely reason: Twenty-six of the 34
states that would be most affected by the ruling have Republican governors, and 22 of
the 24 GOP Senate seats up in 2016 are in
those states.
Obamas law offers subsidized private
insurance to people without access to it on
the job. In the court case, opponents of the
law argue that its literal wording allows the
federal government to subsidize coverage
only in states that set up their own health
insurance markets.
Most states have not done so, because of
the intense partisanship over Obamacare
and in some cases because of technical
problems. Instead, they rely on the federal
HealthCare.gov website.
If the court invalidates the subsidies in
those states, an estimated 8 million people
could lose coverage. The results would be
ugly, said Sandy Praeger, a former Kansas
insurance commissioner.
People who are reasonably healthy
would just drop coverage, she said. Only
the unhealthy would keep buying health
care. It would really exacerbate the problem
of the cost of health insurance.
Praeger, a Republican who retired this
year, called it a classic death spiral, using

a term for market collapse.


Oral arguments on March 4 revealed a
divided court. Chief Justice John Roberts
and Justice Anthony Kennedy seemingly
are key to the outcome, which wont be
known until late June.
If the subsidies survive, the Affordable
Care Act will look like settled law to all but
its most passionate opponents. But if they
are overturned, the shock could carry into
next years elections. Some potential consequences:

BAD TIMING
Around the time when the court
announces its decision, insurers will be
working to finalize premiums and plans for
the coming year. Contracts with the government for 2016 health law coverage have
to be signed by early fall. If the subsidies
are overturned, insurers would have to tear
up their projections about markets in more
than half the states.
Populous states such as Texas, Florida,
Ohio, Illinois, New Jersey, Georgia and
Pennsylvania would be among those affected.
State lawmakers could mitigate the
impact by setting up their own insurance
markets, or exchanges. But that cant be
done overnight.
States might try authorizing an
exchange, and then contracting with the
federal government to run it. But that sort of
end run might prompt lawsuits from opponents of the law.
In any case, most state legislatures will
be out of session by the summer.
During arguments, Justice Samuel Alito

Contracts with the government for 2016 health law coverage have to be signed by early fall.
If the subsidies are overturned, insurers would have to tear up their projections about markets
in more than half the states.
raised the possibility that the court might
be able to delay the effective date of its decision. Even a delay through the end of this
year wouldnt buy much time. Enrollment
for 2016 health law plans is scheduled to
start Nov. 1.

Obama adviser on health care.


Insurers would demand relief from provisions of the law intended to limit premium
increases, or they might drop out of the
insurance exchanges.

HOUSE OF CARDS

STICKER SHOCK
FOR SELF-PAY CUSTOMERS

The health law was designed as a balancing act. Insurers cant turn people away
because of health problems, but most
healthy people are required to contribute to
the insurance pool, and the government
subsidizes most of the premium for low- to
middle-income households.
Take away subsidies, and the other two
parts become unstable.
The laws requirement to carry insurance,
never popular, would probably become the
biggest target for repeal.
My guess is there would be overwhelming political support for the elimination of
the individual mandate if people cant afford
the premiums, said former Sen. Tom
Daschle, D-S.D., who was an influential

Many people still buy individual health


care policies directly from an insurance
company, bypassing the laws markets and
paying the full cost. They tend to be smallbusiness owners, self-employed professionals and early retirees.
But even they would not escape the tumult
in states losing subsidies.
The health law created one big insurance
pool in each state, combining customers
who purchase their policies directly with
those who buy through the government
market. If healthy people exit the insurance
exchanges in droves, premiums for those
buying directly would go up. Some may be
unable to afford the higher cost.

Ohio bill would allow patients to get STD meds for partners

COLUMBUS, Ohio A bill in Ohio


seeks to expand access to treatment for certain sexually transmitted diseases by
allowing doctors to prescribe medication
to their patients partners without examining them.
Licensed health professionals in Ohio
must first see patients before prescribing

them antibiotics. But legislation before


state lawmakers would create a limited
exception for partners of patients who have

infections.

Ohios rate of reported gonorrhea and


chlamydia cases is higher than the national
average, with most cases occurring among
residents ages 15 to 24.
For every 100,000 people in Ohio, 460

have chlamydia and 144 have gonorrhea,


according to 2013 health statistics from the
CDC. Ohio ranks seventh among states in
its rate of reported gonorrhea cases, and
19th in its rate of reported chlamydia cases.

Ohio is one of four states that prohibit

The project also proposes a variety

www.smdailyjournal.com of community benefits, such as setting

the way toward coming before the City


Council for ultimate approval.
Mayor Terry Nagel noted the substantial scope of the development,
which was first proposed more than
one year ago.
We havent had a project of this size
come before us for in all the years Ive
been on the council, she said.
SummerHill Housing Group has proposed to build two four- and five-story
apartment buildings which will house
the apartments for rent, and four separate two-story buildings that will be
comprised of condominiums available
to purchase on a 5.4-acre site that is
currently home to Burlingame
Hyundai, Cammisa Luxury Cars,
Enterprise Car Rental and other car
businesses.
The development is within a mile of
both the of the Caltrain stations in
Burlingame, nearest to the Broadway
station which currently only operates
on the weekend, and fits the citys
vision of adding more housing near
transit stations, according to a city
report.
The project is located within convenient walking distance of shopping,
parks, restaurants, Caltrain and other
public transit, according to the
report.
The Broadway station is slated to
open for daily service once the rail
system transitions to electrification.
There are a range of apartment sizes
included in the project, including 149

one-bedroom units, 111 two-bedroom


units and eight three-bedroom units.
The condominium portion of the
project is proposed to have six twobedroom units, eight three-bedroom
units and eight units with at least three
bedrooms and another room that could
be used as an additional room or office
space.
There are 524 parking spaces included in the project proposal, 430 of
which will be reserved for residents in
a semi-subterranean garage, which has
spurred the concern of some neighborhood residents who feel that is an inadequate amount to fulfill the demand for
vehicles.
It would seem that there is not sufficient parking within the complex for
the number of potential residences,
wrote one commenter included in the
environmental impact report.
The report stated in response that
there is sufficient parking included in
the project, per the citys requirement
for new developments, and notes the
proximity to the public transportation
stations, which could cut down on the
amount of residents who need a car.
Nagel said she believed the developers have been very responsive in considering and addressing concerns
brought forth by residents.
The environmental impact report
states there are sufficient mitigations
in the development proposal to offset
potential impact of noise, air quality,
biological or cultural resources, haz-

LAND

erty is on the market for sale with an


asking price of about $18 million. The
city is prepared to negotiate with the
other two owners to purchase the
remaining property if the public
approves a bond measure.
We would be remiss if we didnt provide the public with the opportunity to
make the decision, City Manager Jeff
Maltbie said in April to about 120 residents who toured the site.
The survey also shows that 55 percent of respondents would like the land
preserved as a natural park setting.
The property has a few homes on it
now and sweeping views of the Bay.
Technically, however, the land is
zoned to accommodate between 70 and
100 new homes on the three properties, Maltbie said in April.
Some surveyed were concerned about
the cost to purchase the land and the
additional property taxes to pay for
the bond and how the land would be
used for recreation.
Some in the public have suggested
the land would be a perfect spot for a
recreational center or pool and others

park and recreational access, according
to a report by special project director
Elaine Costello that the City Council
will hear Tuesday night.
Another 96 percent who responded
to an online survey on Shape San
Carlos said the properties would be a
valuable addition to the city and 85
percent said they would support a bond
measure to buy the 11.3-acre Black
Mountain property, 7.3-acre Rollieri
property and 4.9-acre Vista Del Grande
property located on Alameda de las
Pulgas between Madera Avenue and
Melendy Drive.
A bond measure needs a two-thirds
majority to pass.
Those surveyed said they would support a bond measure with a tax rate of
$20 or less per $100,000 of assessed
property value.

aside 29 units for moderate-income


housing, which according to last
years calculation in San Mateo
County equates to $86,500 for a single-person household, or $123,600
for a family of four.
The developer has also offered more
than $2 million in fees that will be
split between the city of Burlingame,
and the elementary and high school
districts that will receive students from
the development, to pay for the impact
that additional residents will have on
public services.
There will also be electric vehicle
charging stations built into the project, and a community work space in an
apartment building that will include
amenities such as a conference room,
work tables, screens, speakers, wireless Internet and other services.
Should the commission grant
approval of the report, the project
would go on to the council at a yet to
be determined date for ultimate
approval.
Nagel said she is certain there will be
a high level of scrutiny by officials,
due to the considerable size of the project.
We will certainly look at it very
carefully and make sure it meets the
needs of our city, she said.

and is not suitable for development.
A master plan for the land would be
crafted if residents approve the bond
and the properties are purchased.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Quarrelsome family

with an intriguing individual will brighten your day. You
have a lot on your plate, but if you keep plugging away,
you will be proud of what you accomplish.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Stop procrastinating. If you
have all the information you need, make a rm decision
and stick with it. Wavering between various choices
will end up wasting everyones time.

NOTICE OF PETITION TO
ADMINISTER ESTATE OF
Donald Allan Banks
Case Number: 125704
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or estate, or both, of: Donald Allan Banks. A
Petition for Probate has been filed by
Steven James Banks in the Superior
Court of California, County of San Mateo.
The Petition for Probate requests that
Steven James Banks 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: June 24, 2015 at
9:00 a.m., 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

Biden reassures
Iraqi PM of U.S.
support with IS
By Kevin Freking
and Sameer N. Yacoub
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Vice President


Joe Biden reassured Iraqs government on Monday of U.S. support
in the fight against the Islamic
State group, telephoning Prime
Minister Haider al-Abadi with
thanks for the enormous sacrifice
and bravery of Iraqi forces one
day after Defense Secretary Ash
Carter questioned the Iraqi military commitment.
Bidens call followed harsh criticism from Iraqi and Iranian quarters after Carter questioned Iraqi
forces will to fight the surging
Islamic State group.
A White House statement on
Monday describing Bidens call
said the vice president welcomed
an Iraqi decision to mobilize additional troops and prepare for
counterattack operations. Biden
also pledged full U.S. support to
these and other Iraqi efforts to
liberate territory from ISIL, the
statement said, using an acronym
for Islamic State.
In reaction to Carters remarks,
which were aired Sunday in a TV
interview, a spokesman for Iraqs
prime minister suggested the
defense secretary had incorrect
information, while Gen. Qassim
Soleimani, the head of the elite
Quds
forces
in
Irans
Revolutionary Guard, offered his

own
critical
assessment of
U.S. forces.
The heated
exchanges
came after the
loss of Ramadi
and amid other
gains by the IS
in recent days.
Joe Biden
The statements
laid bare fissures
among
countries that
have become
allies of conv e n i e n c e
against the militants. The criticism
from
both Iraq and
Ash Carter
Iran
began
when Carter told CNNs State of
the Union that Iraqi forces vastly outnumbered the Islamic State
group, but still showed no will to
fight and fled the IS advance on
the capital of Anbar province.
On Monday, Saad al-Hadithi, a
spokesman for al-Abadi, said his
government was surprised by
Carters comments.
We should not judge the whole
army based on one incident, alHadithi told the Associated Press.
Al-Hadithi said the Iraqi government believes the fall of Ramadi
was due to mismanagement and
poor planning by some senior
military commanders in charge.

Iraqi security forces inspect the site of a car bomb attack on the outskirt of Diyala province, Iraq.
However, he did not elaborate, and
no action has been taken against
those commanders.
In Iran, the daily newspaper
Javan, which is seen as close to
the Revolutionary Guard, quoted
Soleimani as saying the U.S. didnt do a damn thing to stop the
extremists advance on Ramadi.
Does it mean anything else
than being an accomplice in the
plot? he reportedly asked, later
saying the U.S. showed no will
in fighting the Islamic State
group.
Soleimani said Iran and its allies
are the only forces that can deal
with the threat.
Today, there is nobody in confrontation with (the Islamic State
group) except the Islamic
Republic of Iran, as well as
nations who are next to Iran or
supported by Iran, he said.
So far, the American approach to
the conflict has been to launch

airstrikes as part of an international coalition it leads, as well as


equipping and training Iraqi
forces. But U. S. officials also
have become uneasy with Irans
growing role in the conflict.
While Iraqi officials criticized
Carters comments, his assessment was comparable to one that
Gen. Martin Dempsey, chairman
of the Joints Chief of Staff, made
last week: The ISF was not driven
out of Ramadi. They drove out of
Ramadi.
Still, a senior Obama administration official, speaking before
Bidens call was announced, tried
to soften Carters blunt words:
We know the Iraqi retreat followed an intense wave of suicide
bombings. The reference to lack
of will was in relation to this specific episode, which followed 18
months of fierce ISF attrition
against ISIL in Ramadi, coupled
with what the Iraqi government

has acknowledged were breakdowns in military command, planning, and reinforcement.


The official was not authorized
to discussed the matter publicly
and spoke on condition of
anonymity.
Iran has offered advisers, including Soleimani, to direct Shiite
militias fighting against the
extremists. Iran has said it does
not have combat troops fighting
in
Iraq,
though
some
Revolutionary Guard members
have been killed there.
Baghdad has said military preparations are underway to launch a
large-scale counteroffensive in
Anbar
province,
involving
Iranian-backed Shiite militias.
However, that possibility has
sparked fears of potential sectarian violence in the Sunni province,
long the scene of protests and criticism against the Shiite-led government in Baghdad.
