Police identify Millbrae shooter; to be charged

San Mateo County Sheriffs Office to seek felony assault, not an attempted murder case
By Samantha Weigel
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
The San Mateo County Sheriffs

Office announced it will file a
felony assault charge against a
man they initially suspected was
involved in an attempted murdersuicide shooting in Millbrae last
week.
John Seaman, 67, remains hospitalized with a significant head

injury but is suspected to survive.
Investigators planned to file a
felony charge of assault with a
firearm against him. They were
expected to submit their case to
the District Attorneys Office as
early as Thursday, April 21, said
sheriffs Detective Sal Zuno.
The victim, a woman in her 60s,

has been released from the hospital with a moderate head injury and
is being cared for by family,
according to Zuno.
Emergency responders were first
called to the home where the two
reportedly had been living together at the home on the 200 block of
La Cruz Avenue, around 8:45 a.m.
Tuesday, April 12. The woman had

reportedly called 911 but was
unable to communicate what happened by the time law enforcement
arrived. She and Seaman were
rushed to the hospital with gunshot wounds to the head.
Detectives initially classified
the case as a suspected attempted
murder-suicide but would not
release details as to who was the

shooter. Because the incident was
confined to the home, Zuno said
previously that investigators were
waiting for Seaman and the woman
to stabilize before thoroughly
interviewing them.

Harbor District unanimously

approves preliminary budget
Aggressive spending planned on capital improvements
By Bill Silverfarb

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
The San Mateo County Harbor District

board voted unanimously to approve a preliminary budget that includes $4.2 million
in spending on an aggressive capital
improvement program.
The district will finish this year with an
extra $2 million in revenue that will go into
a healthy reserve that will then be used in
part next fiscal year to pay for demolishing
the antiquated Romeo Pier among other
projects.
The district expects to earn about $10.1
million next fiscal year, which starts July 1,
with expenditures to be about $12.2 million. About $2 million of the districts current $14.2 million reserve will help balance
the budget. Much of the reserve is considered to be assigned to pay for certain pending obligations but, in total, the district has
$5.9 million in unassigned reserves.
The district only spent about $478,000
this year on capital improvement projects.
The board approved the preliminary budget at its Wednesday night meeting and will
vote on a final budget as the fiscal year
ends.
For the first time ever, the board was presented with a budget that details how property tax revenue is spent compared to its
enterprise activities, which includes revenue from slip rentals and various leases.
The district also just retired a $5 million
loan four years ahead of schedule with a savings in interest payments of $500,000.
It took out about $20 million in loans
from the California Division of Boating and
Waterways dating back to 1976 to make

The gathering is held annually because the

the meeting.
Taxpayers will fund the district to the tune
of about $6 million next year while it is
expected to generate about $4.1 million on

General Manager Steve McGrath prepared
a new budget format so commissioners can
see exactly how taxpayer money is being
utilized compared to the money the district
generates itself.
This has been the recommendation of
both the San Mateo County Civil Grand Jury
and the Local Area Formation Commission,
which recommended last year that the
Harbor District be dissolved and run by
another agency such as the county.
In the coming years, McGrath hopes to
spend even more on capital improvements.
He proposes to more than double the
spending on capital projects in fiscal year
2017-18 including replacing the H Dock at
Pillar Point Harbor at a cost of $2.5 million
and replacing aging docks at Oyster Point
Marina at a cost of $1.3 million.

California bill to unionize

freelancers withdrawn for year
SACRAMENTO A longshot proposal to
allow Uber drivers and all other independent
contractors in California to unionize is
being withdrawn.
Assemblywoman Lorena Gonzalez said
Thursday that she used AB1727 to draw
attention to workers who cannot negotiate
their pay or working conditions.
Federal law does not extend collective bargaining rights to independent contractors
like architects, masseuses or workers dispatched through mobile applications like
Uber and Lyft.
The San Diego Democrat and union supporters say those workers deserve the benefits that come with being classified as regular employees. Thirty-two state and national business organizations opposed the bill.
They argue the broad proposal would hurt
businesses and jeopardize the use of independent contractors.

California bill seeks to reduce
deportation for minor crimes
SACRAMENTO California lawmakers
are moving to protect legal immigrants
convicted of low-level offenses from deportation.
The Senate voted 30-8 Thursday to
retroactively change the definition of a misdemeanor, reducing the maximum sentence
by one day to 364 days.
Federal law lets legal immigrants be
deported if they are given a sentence of one
year or more. But until 2015, California law
defined misdemeanors as crimes qualifying
for jail terms of a year or less.
SB1242 applies the current, shorter standard to offenses committed before 2015.

From tiny to titan: Dinosaur

fossils reveal megagrowth
By Seth Brenstein
WASHINGTON Think your kids grow

fast? Scientists say one dinosaur baby went
from tiny to a true titan in the blink of a
prehistoric eye.
At birth, titanosaur babies weighed about
as much as average human babies, 6 to 8
pounds. But in just a few weeks, they were
at least the size of golden retrievers, weighing 70 pounds.
And by age 20 or so, they were bigger
than school buses.
That jump from something that you could
hold in your hands to one of the largest
creatures to ever roam Earth beats anything
scientists have seen before in terms of
growth, said paleontologist Kristi Curry
Rogers of Macalester College in St. Paul,
Minnesota. She is lead author of a new
study on the baby dino fossils published
Thursday in the journal Science.

By comparison, modern giants like
whales, elephants and hippos are born
much bigger than titanosaurs. Jeff Wilson
of the University of Michigan who wasnt
part of the study said this is the paradox of
this class of dinosaurs: They started out as
tiny eggs and ended up as the largest animals on the planet.
Titanosaurs, plant-eating dinosaurs
which lived about 67 million years ago,
grew to be 15 feet tall, not including their
necks and heads. They could stretch out to
be 50 feet long. Looking through old bones
stored in a museum after a dig in
Madagascar, Rogers found enough small
bone fossils to reconstruct a soon-afterhatching rapetosaurus, a type of titanosaur.
The baby dinosaur died of starvation during
a drought that killed many others in the
region, she said.
And yes, you could call it cute.

California loosens water cutbacks in drought
The high-speed rail project has about $3.2 billion in federal stimulus funds and nearly $10 billion in bond money approved
by California voters in 2008.
High-speed rail officials

tinker with $64 billion plan
By Juliet Williams
SACRAMENTO The board that

oversees Californias high-speed rail
system put off a vote Thursday on a
revised business plan to give state
officials more time to assuage lawmakers and citizens upset by the recent
decision to first send the train to
Northern California rather than the
Los Angeles area.
Officials proposed changes to the
latest business plan at a meeting in
San Jose where the board was expected
to adopt the $64 billion business
plan, which calls for the bullet train to
head from the Central Valley to San
Jose rather than south to the San
Fernando Valley as originally planned.
The changes include shifting the
Central Valley starting point to
Merced and adding a station in Wasco,
near Bakersfield.
Rail Authority Chairman Jeff
Morales also told the board that the
state will spend $4 billion in Southern
California to prepare for high-speed

rail there, seeking to reassure worried
officials that a recent change in plans
calling for the train to head first to San
Jose rather than south to Anaheim
might mean the train never makes it to
the Los Angeles area.
Rail officials have pitched the first
segment between the Central Valley
and San Jose for $21 billion as the
only way to ensure a useable segment
gets built with the existing funding
available.
We need to look at this as a tool to
help us rebuild many of these cities in
the Central Valley, said board
Chairman Dan Richard.
It also avoids the expensive and
tricky engineering work required to tunnel through the Tehachapi mountains in
Southern California and delays those
residents complaints for a while.
The first stretch would begin operating in 2025, three years later and 50
miles shorter than the original
planned route that would have first
connected to the San Fernando Valley.
The authority is required by law to

update its business plan every two
years and proposals and funding projects for the system have frequently
changed, leading to criticism that the
latest proposal is no more likely to
become reality than any of the others.
Just like the past two business
plans, which were deemed great ideas
at the time, I expect this body will
approve this business plan and well
all be here again in four years with a
different direction again, said Frank
Oliveira, a member of Citizens for
High-Speed Rail Accountability, one
of several groups that have sued over
the project.
The revised business plan has generated renewed criticism from lawmakers
and prompted a new wave of oversight
legislation, including a bill approved
unanimously by the Assembly
Transportation Committee this week
that would require the rail authority to
offer projected financing costs for
each segment of its business plan,
something it has failed to do so far.
No more ties? Spelling Bee to get harder words

By Ben Nuckols
WASHINGTON After two straight

years of ties, the Scripps National
Spelling Bee is adding more sting:
The championship rounds will last
longer, and the words will be harder.
The bee, now televised in prime
time by ESPN, has exploded in popularity over the past two decades. And
the spellers have gotten increasingly
savvy. So instead of sticking to a list
of 25 championship words selected
weeks earlier, the final rounds could
have as many as 75 words. And the

organizers can choose harder words
on the fly if the spellers dont appear
to be struggling.
As difficult as those words offered
those co-champions were, we had a
more difficult section in our word
list, but we couldnt go to them
because our rules bound us to stick to
that 25-word championship word section, Paige Kimble, the bees executive director, told The Associated
Press.
Before 2014, the system worked
well enough. There hadnt been a tie
in more than 50 years. And the tie

two years ago was a bit of a fluke:
Both spellers got one of the championship words wrong, but because
they misspelled back-to-back, the
bee continued.
Then last year, Vanya Shivashankar
and Gokul Venkatachalam, both veteran spellers who had come close in
previous bees, plowed through the
championship words with ease.
Gokuls last word was nunatak,
which means a hill or mountain surrounded by glacial ice. He spelled it
in one second, Kimble said.

SACRAMENTO California will deliver more water this

year than it has for each of the last three, as spring storms
have nearly filled the states major reservoirs, officials said
Thursday.
Water districts serving nearly a million acres of farmland
and 40 million residents will receive 60 percent of the water
they requested, the state Department of Water Resources
announced.
March storms soaked Northern California after a mostly dry
February, said officials, urging residents to continue conserving because the state remains in drought, and it remains
unclear what next winter will bring.
Conservation is the surest and easiest way to stretch supplies, Mark Cowin, director of the state Department of Water
Resources, said in a statement. We all need to make the sparing, wise use of water a daily habit.
This is Californias fifth consecutive drought year and the
fourth such increase in recent months of the allocation, which
started in December at 10 percent. In 2014, the agency provided clients as little as 5 percent of what they requested for
the year.
Northern California this winter received significantly more
wet weather than the San Joaquin Valley and Southern
California, where reservoirs remain low. Officials say it will

Half-mile tunnel found on

U.S.-Mexico border, cocaine seized
SAN DIEGO U.S. authorities said Wednesday that they
discovered a cross-border tunnel that ran a half-mile from a
Tijuana house equipped with a large elevator to a lot in San
Diego that was advertised as a wooden pallet business, resulting in seizures of more than a ton of cocaine and seven tons
of marijuana.
It was the 13th sophisticated secret passage found along
Californias border with Mexico since 2006, including three
on the same short street in San Diego that runs parallel to a
border fence with a densely populated residential area on the
Mexican side. The unusually narrow tunnel was only about
three feet wide, equipped with a rail system, lighting and ventilation.
The tunnel was unusual because it was used for cocaine, not
just marijuana, said Laura Duffy, U.S. attorney for the
Southern District of California. Tunnels are often built for
marijuana because its bulk and odor make it more difficult to
escape border inspectors scrutiny than cocaine and other
drugs.

Trump team tells GOP he has been projecting an image

By Steve Peoples
and Thomas Beaumont
REUTERS
Donald Trump speaks to supporters during a campaign event in Harrisburg, Penn.
Trumps Twitter provokes huge following, trouble

WASHINGTON Donald Trump

says theres genius in his tweets,
but his wife wishes he would stop.
Melania Trump was asked
Thursday on NBCs Today show
what habit she wishes he would
give up. Lets see, she said,
pausing. The tweeting.
Trumps approach to Twitter has
been as unorthodox as his presidential campaign: unpredictable
and unfiltered, sometimes brilliant and occasionally typographically challenged. He has celebrated the support of scores of
accounts on the social media service that appear almost solely dedicated to him.
But Trumps habit has also come
with collateral damage mostly
because of the billionaires pen-
chant for elevating the comments

of his fans to his 7.7 million followers, oftentimes without apparent concern for the source.
He has twice cited an account
called WhiteGenocideTM, and just
a week ago, he quoted a message
from an account with a user name
that alluded to masturbation.
Many of the accounts with which
he interacts use hazy identities or
images of models widely circulated on the internet.
Whoever these mysterious users
are, they sometimes provide
Trump with information that
migrates into his social media
assertions, campaign speeches
and media interviews.
A few cases in point:

After Donald Trump was
attacked for low poll numbers
among women, he retweeted a supporter noting that he is supported

by 15,000 womens groups.
To demonstrate grass-roots
opposition to the Republican delegate selection process, he cited a
backer who described 1 million
protest messages on postcards
that had been sent to the
Republican National Committee.
After a man rushed the stage at
a Michigan Trump rally, Trump
repeated on television a followers assertion that the man had ties
to the Islamic State group.
To dispel the suggestion that
he didnt treat women as equals, he
retransmitted a supporters statement
that
the
Trump
Organizations executives are predominantly female.
There is no evidence bearing out
any of these claims.
HOLLYWOOD, Fla. Donald

Trumps chief lieutenants told
skeptical Republican leaders
Thursday that the GOP front-runner
has been projecting an image so
far in the 2016 primary season and
the part that hes been playing is
now evolving in a way that will
improve his standing among general election voters.
The message, delivered behind
closed doors in a private briefing,
is part of the campaigns intensifying effort to convince party leaders
Trump will moderate his tone in the
coming months to help deliver big
electoral gains this fall, despite his
contentious ways.
Even as his team pressed Trumps
case, he raised fresh concern among
some conservatives by speaking
against North Carolinas bathroom law, which directs transgender people to use the bathroom that
matches the sex on their birth certificates. Trump also came out
against the federal governments
plan to replace President Andrew
Jackson with the civil-rights figure
Harriet Tubman on the $20 bill.
The developments came as the
GOPs messy fight for the White
House spilled into a seaside resort
in south Florida. While candidates
in both parties fanned out across
the country before important primary contests in the Northeast,
Hollywoods Diplomat Resort &
Spa was transformed into a palmtreed political battleground.
Trumps newly hired senior aide,
Paul Manafort, made the case to
Republican National Committee

members that Trump has two personalities: one in private and one
onstage.
When hes out on the stage,
when hes talking about the kinds
of things hes talking about on the
stump, hes projecting an image
thats for that purpose, Manafort
said in a private briefing.
Youll start to see more depth of
the person, the real person. Youll
see a real different guy, he said.
The Associated Press obtained a
recording of the closed-door
exchange.
He gets it, Manafort said of
Trumps need to moderate his personality. The part that hes been
playing is evolving into the part
that now youve been expecting,
but he wasnt ready for, because he
had first to complete the first
phase. The negatives will come
down. The image is going to
change.
The message was welcomed by
some party officials but criticized
by others who suggested it raised
doubts about his authenticity.
Hes trying to moderate. Hes
getting better, said Ben Carson, a
Trump ally who was part of the
GOPs front-runners RNC outreach
team.
While Trumps top advisers were
promising Republican leaders that
the GOP front-runner would moderate his message, the candidate was
telling voters he wasnt ready to act
presidential.
I just dont know if I want to do
it yet, Trump said during a raucous
rally in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania,
Thursday that was frequently interrupted by protesters.

Firms that paid Hillary

Clinton to speak have
government interests
By Stephen Braun
WASHINGTON Its not just Wall Street

banks. Most companies and groups that paid
Democratic presidential candidate Hillary
Clinton to speak between 2013 and 2015
have lobbied federal agencies in recent years,
and more than one-third are government contractors, an Associated Press review found.
Their interests are sprawling and would follow Clinton to the White House should she
win election this fall.
An examination of federal records, regulatory filings and correspondence shows that
almost all the 82 corporations, trade associations and other groups that paid for or sponsored Clintons speeches have actively
sought to sway the U.S. government lobbying, bidding for contracts, commenting
on federal policy and in some cases contacting State Department officials or Clinton
herself during her tenure as secretary of state.
Presidents are not generally bound by
many of the ethics and conflict-of-interest
regulations that apply to non-elected executive branch officials, although they are subject to laws covering related conduct, such as
bribery and illegal gratuities. Clintons 94
paid appearances over two years on the
speech circuit leave her open to scrutiny over
decisions she would make in the White House

or influence that may affect the interests of
her speech sponsors.
The AP review identified at least 60 firms
and organizations that sponsored Clintons
speeches and lobbied the U.S. government at
some point since the start of Obama administration. Over the same period, at least 30 also
profited from government contracts. Twentytwo groups lobbied the State Department during Clintons tenure as secretary of state.
Rival presidential candidate Sen. Bernie
Sanders and Republican critics have mocked
Clinton over her closed-door talks to banks
and investment firms, saying she is too
closely aligned to Wall Street to curb abuses.
Clinton says she can be trusted to spurn her
donors on critical issues, noting that
President Barack Obama was tough on Wall
Street despite his prolific fundraising there.
But her earnings of more than $21.6 million
from such a wide range of interest groups
could affect public confidence in her proclaimed independence.
The problem is whether all these interests
who paid her to appear before them will
expect to have special access when they have
an issue before the government, said
Lawrence M. Noble, general counsel of the
Campaign Legal Center, a Washington-based
election watchdog group.
LONDON Its springtime in London,

but President Barack Obama might sense a
chill in the air.
The U.S. leader is being welcomed by
British Prime Minister David Cameron and
wined and dined by the royal family on a
three-day visit to the U.K. that began late
Thursday.
But Britains looming June 23 referendum
about whether to stay in the 28-nation
European Union has strained the special
relationship, with several senior U. K.
politicians bluntly telling the president to
butt out of Britains debate. They have
branded Obama anti-British and unsuccessful and accused him of meddling for
suggesting that the U.S. would be happier if
Britain stayed in the bloc.
The White House says Obama is willing to
speak out on the subject.
If hes asked his view as a friend, he will
offer it, U.S. Deputy National Security
Adviser Ben Rhodes said, adding that the
American stance was clear. As the president
has said, we support a strong United
Kingdom in the European Union.
In an op-ed published in the Telegraph
newspaper, Obama wrote that Great
Britains presence in the EU magnifies
Britains influence and helps spread British
values.

Paris climate agreement

on track for an early start
By Karl Ritter and Cara Anna
UNITED NATIONS As many as 170

countries are expected to sign the Paris
Agreement on climate change Friday in a
symbolic triumph for a landmark deal that
once seemed unlikely but now appears on
track to enter into force years ahead of
schedule.
U.N. officials say the signing ceremony
Friday will set a record for international
diplomacy: Never before have so many
countries inked an agreement on the first
day of the signing period.
That could help pave the way for the pact
to become effective long before the original 2020 deadline possibly this year
though countries must first formally
approve it through their domestic procedures.
We are within striking distance of having the agreement start years earlier than
anyone anticipated, Brian Deese, an advis-
er to President Barack Obama, said in a

speech last week at Reed College in
Portland, Oregon.
The U. S. and China, which together
account for nearly 40 percent of global
emissions, have said they intend to formally join the agreement this year. It will enter
into force once 55 countries representing at
least 55 percent of global emissions have
done so.
Theres incredible momentum, former
New Zealand Prime Minister Helen Clark,
who heads the U. N. Development
Program, told the Associated Press.

Mexico proposes raising limit

on decriminalized pot to 1 ounce
MEXICO CITY President Enrique Pena

Nieto said Thursday that he will ask
Mexicos Congress to raise the limit on
decriminalized marijuana for personal use to
28 grams, or about one ounce.
Currently, only possession of five grams,
or less than a fifth of an ounce, is exempt
from prosecution.
This means that consumption would no
longer be criminalized, Pena Nieto said.
Possession of larger amounts would still

be punishable under drug trafficking laws.
We Mexicans know all too well the range
and the defects of prohibitionist and punitive policies, and of the so-called war on
drugs that has prevailed for 40 years, Pena
Nieto said. Our country has suffered, as few
have, the ill effects of organized crime tied
to drug trafficking.
Fortunately, a new consensus is gradually emerging worldwide in favor of reforming
drug policies, he said.

Vote yes on Measure AA
n 2003, 15,100 acres of salt

ponds were purchased from
Cargill Inc. with an aim to eventually restore them to tidal wetlands.
For decades, those lands that were
taken from the Bay were used for salt
production and the purchase was part
of a larger effort to restore that land
back to its natural state.
The project has several goals, to
bring back habitat that would allow
for dwindling wildlife to ourish
again and to also provide ways for the
areas water quality to improve while
also creating better ood control.
While the purchase was enabled by
federal and state agencies, along with
private donations, there was never a
revenue source for the actual restoration of the land. Now, a nine-county
ballot measure seeks to change that.
By asking for a $12 annual tax on
every parcel, the San Francisco Bay
Area Restoration Authority is seeking
a total of $500 million, or $25 mil-
Editorial
lion a year, for restoration projects
and real ecological benets.
Though the San Francisco Bay is
the dening characteristic of this
region, it historically receives disproportionately less federal funding
compared to other signicant national bodies of water. Puget Sound, the
Great Lakes and the Chesapeake Bay
receive between ve and 60 times
more federal support than the Bay.
Though there has been some effort by
local federal legislators to correct
that, but so far there has been little to
show. This measure would be able to
produce the money needed to begin
many of the projects and could be used
to leverage additional state and federal
funds.
While many of those projects are in
the South Bay, they would help in
assuring the entire Bay stays healthy

and also ensure that decades of development, diking and ll would be rectied. There are also opportunities in
San Mateo County for projects,
including the restoration of marsh
land near San Francisquito Creek and
even some improvements at Coyote
Point.
Restoring Bay marsh land is key to
preventing ooding, reducing pollution and creating new recreation areas
for all to enjoy. The purchase in 2003
was a tremendous step toward the
potential for this land, and other
areas, to be restored.This nine-county
proposal, Measure AA, now provides
the much-needed funding for its
restoration. This has been a long
thought-out process with tremendous
benets for everyone in the Bay Area
with just a small amount of revenue
provided by each and every property
owner in nine counties. It deserves
your support.

drum into the thick skulls of our City

Its time to end the stalemate

Editor,
I would like to thank the San Mateo
City Council for doing the right thing
on Monday, April 18. They vetoed the
request by SPI Holdings to change
Bridgepointes Master Plan, which
mandates that a skating rink or similar recreational facility be maintained
at the shopping center. The skating
rink has now been closed for almost
three years. During this time, countless battles have been waged over
what to do with the building. Dennis
Wong and SPI Holdings have stubbornly refused to seriously negotiate a
positive solution to this stalemate. If
Wong continues to hold out, the rink
could potentially sit empty for another three years, preventing the community from beneting from the popular
skating rink, while SPI Holdings continues to lose ongoing revenue.
However, there is another possibility. Wong could choose to do the right
thing and work with the community to
achieve a win-win outcome for everyone.One possibility could be to put a

Transportation projects
Editor,
In response to the article
Congestion cash crunch in the April
21 edition of the Daily Journal about
transportation projects facing cuts,
how unfair it is and how overcrowded
highways get (ultimately needing
money to relieve congestion caused
by overpopulation), the answer is
simple. Ofcials in San Mateo County
should have considered xing this
problem of the expanding population
before overpopulation could occur.
Highways and roads should have been
built before projects were allowed. Our
local government should have had the
insight to plan for these problems.
Its simple: You dont buy more
cows for the farm until you are sure
the corral is big enough to hold them.
Build the corral rst.

Building
the future
By Mark Olbert
ecently, theres been a growing anti-development sentiment in many Peninsula communities, including San Carlos. Thats to be expected. When times are hard, like during the Great
Recession, development is seen as a good thing, a sign
that maybe the economy is picking up. When things
improve, people focus on what comes with better times:
more traffic, less readily available
parking, the relocation or loss of
older businesses.
But for a community like San
Carlos, its important not to lose
track of why development actually
redevelopment, since our city is
almost completely built out is
important.
Redevelopment means property
owners are willing to bet on our future. These days, one
of the best places in the United States, in terms of traffic congestion, abundant available parking and a stable business community, is Detroit. Because not a lot
of people currently want to live or work there.
Hard as it may be to believe, it wasnt so long ago
that San Carlos began to fade away: population dropped,
and few, if any, new businesses wanted to come here. To
have a great future, we have to be a community that people want to invest in today.
More importantly, places like San Carlos cannot offer
the public amenities and services they do without being
a vibrant community. The tomorrow-must-be-the-sameas-yesterday approach isnt consistent with the necessary energy. Residential property taxes pay for less
than half of our police and fire services, let alone all the
other things the community expects and local government provides.
What makes up the difference? Commercial property
taxes, hotel occupancy taxes, sales and use taxes, business license fees, and the like. All of which depend on
San Carlos being a place that people, residents and nonresidents alike, want to enjoy.
But being an attractive place doesnt happen by accident. It requires regular redevelopment, and a willingness to accept newcomers into our community.
The Marriott Residence Inn being built by the
Highway 101 entrance is a great example of this.
Getting a top-notch hotel for San Carlos was a decadeslong goal of city government, spanning many councils.
It will make San Carlos more attractive to visitors, and
in doing so generate more than $1 million a year in
hotel occupancy taxes.
That money will help fund the police and fire departments, maintain public facilities like the library, the
senior and youth centers, and all our parks, while also
making it possible to hold favorite community events
like Hometown Days, the Art and Wine Fair and the
farmers market.
Yet the Marriott almost didnt get built. It took out-ofthe-box thinking by staff, and a council willing to take
some novel actions. There were many in the local community who argued against it. Theres never been a
hotel like that built here, and there never will be, was
the refrain when the matter came before the council.
But because there was a willingness not just to accept
change, but to pursue opportunity, San Carlos is now on
a path to buttress its civic finances. Plus, well get a
great new hotel to boot.
If you always look to the past, you wont have much
of a future. Better to learn from it, and use experience to
shape what comes next. Because the future is coming
whether we like it or not.
You wont succeed with every attempt to build a better
future. But, as the old saying goes about the difference
between optimists and pessimists, youll have a lot
more fun getting there. And a better, more rewarding life
when you arrive.

Stock indexes lower as market snaps three-day rally

A steep slide in traditional safeplay stocks such as phone companies and utilities weighed on Wall

Alphabet spells big gains for investors, despite 1Q letdown

By Michael Liedtke
SAN FRANCISCO Larry Pages

five-year tenure as CEO of Google
and now its new corporate parent
Alphabet is reminding investors
that patience pays off, despite a letdown in the first quarter.
After lagging its peers in the early
stages of Pages reign, the Internets
most powerful company has since
delivered returns that trounced both the
Standard & Poors 500 and Apple
shares.
Since Page took the helm in 2011,

Alphabets stock has soared 163 percent, creating an additional $300 billion in shareholder wealth. The S&P
500 rose 58 percent during the same
period; Apples stock is up 115 percent.
Some of Alphabets gains evaporated late Thursday after the company
announced first-quarter earnings and
revenue that fell below analyst projections. Both earnings and revenue fell
below the analyst projections that
steer investor reactions, causing
Alphabet Inc. shares to backtrack by
$39.89, or 5 percent, to $740.11 in

extended trading.
The first-quarter performance will
once again test Pages long-held belief
that investors should be looking at the
big picture instead of fixating on much
a companys earnings rise and fall
from one quarter to the next.
Page can more easily brush off Wall
Street pressure than most CEOs
because he, fellow Google co-founder
Sergey Brin and chairman Eric Schmidt
are Alphabets controlling shareholders, giving them the firepower to outvote everyone else.
Volkswagen owners will get a choice: A buyback or repairs

SAN FRANCISCO The owners of

nearly half a million polluting
Volkswagens in the U.S. will have the
option of selling them back to the
company or getting them repaired at
VWs expense, under a deal announced
Thursday by a federal judge.
The tentative agreement outlined by
Senior U.S. District Judge Charles
Breyer, however, left many questions

unanswered, among them: How much
can car owners expect in a buyback?
Will they be compensated for any
reduced gas mileage and performance
resulting from a repair? And how soon
could the program start?
Breyer, who is presiding over a tangle of litigation created by the VW
emissions cheating scandal, said the
deal will include substantial compen-
sation for owners. But he did not elaborate and warned attorneys in the case
not to talk about the continuing negotiations, saying that could cause confusion among customers.

also increased its outlook for the

General Motors rose 1.5 percent
after the automaker said its profit
more than doubled, thanks partly
to strong demand in North
America. The stock gained 47
cents to $32.66.
Citrix Systems climbed 4.4 percent a day after the company
reported earnings that topped Wall
Street expectations. The stock
added $3.51 to $84.03.
Beyond earnings, traders sent
shares in Viacom sharply higher

Chicago pitcher Jake Arrieta threw his second career no-hitter in a 16-0 win over Reds.
Chicagos Jake Arrieta

tosses another no-no
By Joe Kay
CINCINNATI Jake Arrieta of the

Chicago Cubs pitched his second no-hitter
in a span of 11 regular-season starts, shutting down the Cincinnati Reds in a 16-0 rout
Thursday night.
The reigning NL Cy Young winner threw
the first no-hitter of the Major League
Baseball season.
Arrieta (4-0) struck out six, walked four
and allowed only six balls hit out of the
infield. He threw 119 pitches, retiring
Eugenio Suarez on a routine flyball to right
field to end it.
Once I got to the eighth, that was the
idea: Try to be good on the edges and not
make any mistakes, he said.
Arrieta threw his first career no-hitter last
Aug. 30 at Dodger Stadium, beating Los
Angeles 2-0. That gem came as Arrieta put
together one of the best pitching stretches
in club history.
The Reds hadnt been held hitless in a regular-season game since 1971, when Rick
Wise did it for Philadelphia at Riverfront
Stadium. In the 2010 NL playoffs, Roy
Halladay of the Phillies pitched a no-hitter
against Cincinnati.
Arrieta is among several pitchers in the
last decade to pitch two no-hitters. The 30year-old righty is on the list with Max
Scherzer, Justin Verlander, Tim Lincecum and
Homer Bailey.
Baseball history, theres so many things
Ive been able to be a part of over these last
12, 15 months, Arrieta said. Were really
trying to enjoy it.
Arrieta is the first Cubs pitcher to win his
first four starts in a season since Greg
Maddux went 5-0 in 2006. Ken Holtzman is
the only other Cubs pitcher to throw more
than one no-hitter in the modern era, doing
it in 1969 and 1971.
Kris Bryant homered twice, including a
grand slam, and drove in six runs. Arrieta
contributed a pair of singles and a walk as
the Cubs pulled away.
The 16-run margin approached the mostlopsided victory in major league history. In
1884, Pud Galvin and Buffalo beat the
Detroit Wolverines 18-0, STATS said.
By Arrietas standards, it was a bit of a
struggle. He walked three batters hed
allowed only two walks in his first three
starts combined and needed 85 pitches to
get through six innings.
It felt sloppy from the get go, Arrieta
said. I was a little off on my command, but

I was able to keep them off balance.
After that, he dug in and made quick work
of the Reds lineup.
The thousands of Cubs fans in the crowd of
16,497 were on their feet cheering as Arrieta
walked Scott Schebler to open the ninth, got
pinch-hitter Tucker Barnhart on a popup,
Zack Cozart on a fly to center, and Suarez on
a fly to Jason Heyward.
Arrieta and catcher David Ross embraced
halfway between home plate and the mound
as the rest of the Cubs circled around him.
In September 2014, Arrieta lost a no-hit
bid against the Reds on Brandon Phillips
one-out double in the eighth at Wrigley
Field.
This time, the offense made the outcome a
moot point while extending the Cubs best
start since 1970.
Kris Bryant hit a two-run shot in the first
off Brandon Finnegan (1-1), and his third
career grand slam in the seventh off Drew
Hayes made it 13-0. Ben Zobrist and David
Ross added solo shots, and Anthony Rizzo
had a three-run homer.
As the Cubs made it a romp, there was only
one question left: How far could Arrieta go?
He gave himself a chance by getting
through the seventh and eighth innings on
only 18 pitches, bearing down against an
overmatched lineup.
The Cubs are off to their best start since
they also went 12-4 in 1970, per STATS
research.
Finnegan started at Wrigley Field on April
11 and didnt allow a hit until Ross singled
with two outs in the seventh. They were
ready for the left-hander this time. Dexter
Fowler doubled off the wall in center on
Finnegans first pitch of the game, and
Bryants homer made it 2-0.
Zobrist homered in the second inning as
the Cubs made it 4-0. Theyre unbeaten this
season when scoring at least four times,
going 11-0.
Arrietas surge
Arrieta added to his club-record of 24 consecutive quality starts since June 21, going
20-1. Hes 15-0 in 16 starts since August 1
of last season, allowing a total of seven
earned runs.
Beating the Reds

The Cubs have won their last five games in
Cincinnati, the first time theyve done that
since the 1972-73 seasons.

Arizona sweeps four from Giants

By Janie McCauley
SAN FRANCISCO San Franciscos newlook lineup is in dire need of some timely
hitting.
The Giants, who began the season as an
NL West favorite, are searching for answers
after being swept by the Arizona
Diamondbacks in a four-game series that
ended with a 6-2 defeat Thursday.
San Francisco lost a fifth straight game
and eighth in nine. The Giants are 3 for 35
with runners in scoring position during the
skid, missing key chances in the third after
Shelby Miller walked four straight batters.
It killed us. Thats what were missing, a
timely hit, manager Bruce Bochy said. You
always look like this when you dont get
those hits. We need someone to inject some
life in us. They were trying to give us the
game there. We probably get shutout if we
didnt get those walks. We had a great chance
there and we couldnt take advantage.
Yasmani Tomas hit a go-ahead home run in
the fourth and Paul Goldschmidt drove in two
runs in Arizonas fifth straight win and first
four-game sweep ever in the Giants 17thyear ballpark and fifth of three or more
games.
Were not worried. I think our lineup is
composed of too many good hitters who
understand what they are doing at the plate
Dbacks 6, Giants 2
for us to stay down this
long, third baseman
Matt Duffy said. We didnt take full advantage of
the opportunities that
were presented.
Tyler Wagner (1-0)
allowed two hits in five
relief innings of Miller
for his first major league
Matt Duffy
win.
The benches cleared and both teams were
warned in the eighth after Josh Osich hit
Arizonas David Peralta with a pitch for the
second straight day. Peralta walked toward
the mound and offered Osich a few words, but
there were no ejections.
Peralta said he didnt think Osich was trying to hit him but was more annoyed it happened again.
Thats my thought. He showed me yesterday like he cant even throw the pitch inside
because he ended up hitting me twice,
Peralta said. The first pitch he hit me was at
my face. I got lucky that I threw my arm in.
Today he did the same thing and got me on
my elbow. Thats why I said something,
like: Hey, whats going on? Youre going to
hurt somebody. Hes not like throwing 88,
hes throwing 98.
Osich said afterward: I can see why he can
be mad. I can see what it looks like because

its the second day in a row. Its part of baseball. I missed my spot.
Jake Lamb went 7 for 15 with a homer,
triple and four doubles during the series with
two more hits in the finale against Johnny
Cueto (3-1), who was tagged for his first loss
since joining the Giants on a $130 million,
six-year contract.
Lambs 16 total bases were the second
most in a single series at AT&T Park behind
Matt Williams 17 during a five-game set
from Sept. 21-25, 2000.
Jean Segura added a two-run triple in the
ninth as Arizona won for the eighth time in
the last 10 against San Francisco and 12th in
14 at AT&T Park, including six shutouts.
Its not easy to sweep anybody four
games at the major league level, especially a
team like that in this ballpark, D-backs
manager Chip Hale said. Im very proud of
our guys.

Surging As win fifth straight

NEW YORK Khris Davis and Coco Crisp

homered on consecutive pitches, backing
Rich Hills sox strong innings, and the
Oakland Athletics beat the New York Yankees
7-3 Thursday night to complete a three-game
sweep.
With the score tied at 2-all to start the seventh inning, Davis greeted reliever Chasen
Shreve (1-1) by sending his first pitch deep
over the center-field wall. Crisp then lined the
first pitch he saw into the second deck in left
for the As first back-to-back home runs of the
season.
The 36-year-old Hill (2-2) kept his former
clubs anemic offense off-balance with a big,
sweeping curve, limiting the Yankees to just
two runs and three hits while striking out 10.
The left-handers five outings with doubledigit strikeouts are the most in the majors
since he made his season debut last Sept. 13,
As 7, Yankees 3
according to STATS.
Liam Hendriks allowed two runners in the
bottom of the ninth, but closer Ryan Madson
retired Starlin Castro and Carlos Beltran for
his sixth save.
Oakland won its fifth straight and remained
the only team in baseball with a perfect road
record. It was the first time the As swept a
series in the Bronx since 2006.
After hitting 27 home runs last year, the
tiebreaking shot was Davis first this season.
The Yankees pulled within a run in the seventh as pinch-hitter Brett Gardner led off with
a walk against As reliever Fernando Rodriguez
and later scored on Castros RBI single. John
Axford then retired Beltran, stranding runners
on first and third.
Chris Coghlan gave Oakland some breathing room in the eighth, clubbing a two-run
homer to right-center off of rookie reliever

Johnny Barbato to make it 6-3.
Aaron Hicks snapped an 0-for-17 stretch
with a bloop single to center that drove in
Mark Teixeira and gave the Yankees a 1-0 lead
in the second. It was Hicks first hit from the
right side of the plate this year.
Oakland opened the top of the fourth with
three straight hits, including Jed Lowries single that drove in Josh Reddick to tie the score.
Yankees starter Luis Severino escaped further
damage, thanks to an acrobatic catch against
the wall in foul territory by a leaping Hicks
followed by two strikeouts.
New York regained the lead in the bottom of
the fourth on an unearned run After a one-out
walk, Alex Rodriguez broke for second and
advanced to third after an errant pickoff
attempt by Hill sailed into foul territory. Two
batters later, Austin Romine singled on a soft
dribbler up the third base line, driving in
Rodriguez.

Barry Bonds back

By Steven Wine
MIAMI Barry Bonds bicycles across

the Rickenbacker Causeway on his daily
morning ride, Biscayne Bay on one side and
the Atlantic Ocean on the other, a complicated past behind him.
Most of the time he looks ahead to this
weekend, for example. Hes heading for
home.
Bonds will return to
San Francisco for a
three-game series, still
wearing orange and
black but now in a different role with a different
team. The former Giants
slugger will be in the
visitors dugout as hitBarry Bonds ting coach for the Miami
Marlins, and he doesnt
think its as strange as it sounds.
Its not going to feel strange, Bonds
said. Thats my home. That will always be
my home. I dont feel strange at home.
Hes making a second home in Miami,
and all indications are he enjoys his new
job. Every time a TV camera shows Bonds
during a game, which is often, he seems to
be grinning.
A snapshot moment: When leadoff hitter
Dee Gordon ended a recent 16-pitch at-bat
with a single, Bonds clapped, waved his fist
and shouted, Woo! Gordon later came
around to score, and Bonds greeted him with
a gleeful hug.
Its nice to be back on the field, Bonds
said. I like it a lot. It feels better on this
side than when I was playing. I was always
focused in on, Ive got to do the next job.
Ive got to go play defense. Now I get to be
on this side and enjoy it. When I see something they are working so hard on, its
exciting.
Bonds was upbeat even though the
Marlins are off to another dismal start and
not doing much to make their new hitting
coach look good. Justin Bour is batting
.227, Giancarlo Stanton is at .224, J.T.
Realmuto is at .205 and Marcell Ozuna is at
.200.
Its not how you start, its how you finish, Bonds said. These guys are young
players. You expect bumps in the road.
Thats the whole challenge of it.

after an intentional walk to Joe Veglak, junior Ethan Wolf put the ball in play to drive
the go-ahead run across.
Wolfs game-winning RBI was as much a
product of his legs as his contact abilities,
as he grounded a ball to Gryphons shortstop
Josh Goodwine. It was the groundball
Crystal Springs was playing for, as manager Rob Cannone played the infield back
instead of drawing in the middle infielders to
cut the run off at the plate in anticipation
of Blundell throwing a groundball.
We knew Joey was going to keep the ball
down and have a chance of getting a groundball, Cannone said. And we were almost
there.
But Wolfs chopper to shortstop allowed
no room for error. And after Goodwine quickly shuffled the ball to second base for the
second out of the inning, the second baseman rushed a throw that short-hopped the
first baseman and skipped through to the
fence. Not only did Jacobs score from third
on Wolfs RBI fielders choice, Noriega
came around to score on the throwing error.
The rally stuck Blundell with a hard-luck
loss, his first of the year, though he was
credited with the complete game.
I felt really good, Blundell said. I was
hitting my locations well. At the end of the
day, they were able to string a couple hits
together and we werent able to do it.
It was Blundells first loss since last season, when he took the loss against Mills in
a similar situation. If the Gryphons had any
chance of competing for a league title, they
Section tournament would be decided at No.

2 singles.
And leave it to a freshman to record the
deciding point. Aragons Daniel Li dropped
the first set to Alex Yang, but rallied to win the
final two sets to record a 3-6, 7-5, 7-5 victory
to give the Dons the 4-3 victory.
It was exciting, said Aragon coach Dave
Owdom. The other day and today, theres so
much excitement and its neat when it come
down to the wire.
It was the second time in three days that Li
won the Dons winning point. Li beat Yang
on Tuesday to give Aragon the win then, too.
It feels great. It feels great to help your
teammates, Li said.
Li was spraying shots in the first set and it
cost him.
The first set, I overplayed (shots) a little,
Li said.
Li came back to win the second set 7-5 to
force a third. With the set tied at 3, Li would
break Yangs serve and then held to take a 5-3
advantage.
But Yang came right back to win the next
two games to tie the match at 5, only to see Li
win the final two games to clinch the victory.
Its definitely a little nerve wracking, Li
said of playing for the deciding point. Li
admitted he got a little nervous in the third
set, But I kept thinking, Keep fighting,
and not give up.
Owdom believes Lis experience playing
tournament tennis helped him in Thursdays
match against Yang.
Hes one of the few I have (at) Aragon who
plays (juniors) tournaments, Owdom said.
There is a lot of pressure (when youre playing for the team win) but he has experience
because of his USTA background.
Lis win was the only singles match the
Dons would capture. Reznik beat Ngirchemat
for the third time this season in straight sets,
7-6 (7-2), 6-3. Reznik has been battling serving issues the last few matches and the yips
reared its head in the first set. But Reznik figured it out and rode his big service game to the
victory.
I just try to slow it up and put more kick

needed a first-set tiebreaker. Hutchaleelaha

Aragons Jonathan Liu rallied to win three
games in a row to tie the set at 5.
He (Liu) made most of his mistakes at the
beginning (of the set), Hutchaleelaha said,
explaining how he jumped out to the big lead.
Once I got the lead, I got a little too comfortable.
The set eventually went to a tiebreaker,
which Hutchaleelaha won 8-6.
He said that propelled him to the a 6-3 win
in the second set.
(Winning the tiebreak) gave me a lot of
confidence. I needed that boost,
Hutchaleelaha said.
Carlmont earned its third singles point with
a win at No. 4 singles from Nate Yeo, who
beat David Wu 7-6 (10-8), 6-1.
Those Carlmont wins in singles put the
onus on the Aragon doubles teams and they
came through. The Dons earned their first
point of the match when the No. 1 doubles
team of Langston Swiecki and Tony Wang had
the easiest match of the day, winning 6-1, 63.
The No. 2 and No. 3 doubles matches, however, could have gone either way, but Aragon
pulled out wins in both. At No. 2 doubles,
Sameer Jain and Kelvin Yang got blitzed in
the first set by Kevin Xiang and Jon Li, 6-0.
I think we were just rushing a lot, Yang
said.
But Jain and Yang rebounded to win the second set 6-2 and duplicated that effort in the
deciding third set.
Owdom said Jain and Yang were playing
together for only the second time this season.
They were frustrating to watch in that first
set, Owdom said.
The Dons completed the doubles sweep
when Richard Tang and Jason Shoa posted a 76 (7-0), 7-5 win at No. 3.

Tony Stewart ready for return to NASCAR

By Jenna Fryer
CHARLOTTE, N.C. Tony Stewart has

been cleared to return to racing and will be
back in his car Friday at Richmond
International Raceway.
The three-time NASCAR champion
missed the first eight races of the season
with a fractured vertebra suffered in a
January all-terrain vehicle accident. The
injury occurred one week before Stewart was
scheduled to start his final season in
NASCAR. Hes retiring at the end of this
year.
As soon as the doctors said they were happy

with my scans, I wasnt
going to wait any longer
to get back in my race
car,
Stewart
said,
announcing his return
Thursday on Twitter. I
want to make the most of
Tony Stewart my last season in Sprint
Cup, and Ive been on
the sidelines long enough.
It was a rollercoaster day for Stewart, who
was granted a waiver to participate in the
Chase for the Sprint Cup championship by
NASCAR after he announced his return.

Hours later, he was fined $35,000 for comments he made criticizing NASCAR over
how it polices pit road.
Stewart warned drivers will be injured if
NASCAR doesnt start forcing teams to put
all five lug nuts on their cars during tire
changes.
They are totally dropping the ball, and I
feel like really made a very grossly bad decision, Stewart said of NASCARs decision
last year to stop policing the lug nuts. We
shouldnt be playing games with safety to
win races. It should be out-performing the
other teams, not jeopardizing drivers lives
by teams putting two lug nuts on to try to

get two more spots off pit road.
The fine, certain to infuriate Stewart, will
soon be forgotten once he makes his longawaited return to the No. 14 Chevrolet on
Friday. Hell race Sunday at Richmond, then
participate in a Goodyear tire test at
Indianapolis Motor Speedway. He plans to
qualify and start his car at Talladega
Superspeedway in Alabama, but he will give
his seat up after the race begins to Ty
Dillon.
Stewart says the style of racing at
Talladega could lead to an accident that could
hurt his comeback.
So Yeon Ryu shoots 63 to take Swinging Skirts lead

DALY CITY So Yeon Ryu shot a tournament-record 9-under 63 on Thursday to take

the first-round lead in the Swinging Skirts
LPGA Classic.
Playing in the first group of the day off
the 10th tee, the South Korean player had
seven birdies in an eight-hole stretch on the
back nine and added two more on the front
nine at Lake Merced.
I was kind of lucky to tee it off really
early, Ryu said. I had a really fresh green,
no wind. Also San Francisco is really cold
in the morning, but this morning it was just
perfect temperature.
I think today just everything was just
great. My tee shot was great. I only missed
one green today. I shot 17 greens. Putting
was really good.

Taiwans Candie Kung and Japans Haru
Nomura were two strokes back at 65.
Kung opened her afternoon round with
bogeys on 10 and 11, then birdied the next
two and made seven more in a nine-hole
stretch from the 17th to the seventh.
Two three-putts, hello, what a start,
Kung said. Putting let me down the first
two holes and then picked me right up on
the last 16 holes. I made a lot of long putts
and hit 18 greens today. This course is hard
to hit fairways and greens, and I was able to
keep it in play and hit all the greens.
Chinas Xi Yu Lin and the Netherlands
Christel Boeljon shot 67, and two-time
defending champion Lydia Ko was at 68
along with Catriona Matthew, Na Yeon Choi
and Rachel Rohanna.
Ko already has two victories in California

this year, winning the Kia Classic and ANA
Inspiration the first major of the year
in consecutive weeks.
Course is easy, whatever course shes
playing on, the top-ranked Ko joked about
Ryu. Obviously, everything was going
right today. For her to shoot a score like
that, thats really impressive.
Ryu is winless since the 2014 Canadian
Pacific Womens Open. She also won the
2011 U.S. Women Open and 2012 Jamie
Farr Toledo Classic.
Every tournament, I really want to win
Ryu said. I think its a bit too early to discuss about the result. We still have three
more days.

I had my two bracelets and my hair tie
and I was planning on braiding my hair
before I played, Ko said. She was like,
Oh, doesnt it bother you having stuff on
your wrist? I said, No, no. Well, the hair
tie was for me to braid it. She was like, Do
you want me to braid it for you? I was like,
Sure. Its going to end up way nicer than
how I braid it. She did good. I told her, Its

Washington Nationals manager Dusty
Baker managed Bonds with the Giants, and
they talked about the challenge of it during
a series this week in Miami.
Its good for him to be back in baseball,
Baker said Thursday. He seems like hes
having fun. This is as feeling happy as
Ive seen him in a while.
Not that the Marlins experiment with
Bonds which was owner Jeffrey Lorias
idea can be declared a success yet.
Bonds is back in the majors for the first
time since his final season as a player in
2007, easing into the role with help from
assistant hitting coach Frank Menechino.
There has been skepticism Bonds will long
endure the daily grind, hours and travel that
come with coaching.
Marlins manager Don Mattingly said the
jurys still out.

Prince
Hugely inventive, influential
pop superstar, dies at age 57
By Hillel Italie,
Nekesa Mumbi Moody and Jeff Baenen
CHANHASSEN, Minn. Prince could play guitar like

Carlos Santana or Jimi Hendrix, sing like James Brown,
turn out pop melodies worthy of Motown or lay down the
deepest grooves this side of Sly and the Family Stone. But
no one could mistake his sound for anyone but Prince.
The dazzlingly talented and charismatic singer, songwriter, arranger and instrumentalist who died Thursday at
his home drew upon the history of modern popular music
and created a gender- and genre-defying blend of rock,
funk and soul. With hits including 1999, Purple Rain
and Little Red Corvette, Princes records sold more than
100 million copies and earned him Grammys and an
Academy Award.
The Minneapolis native stood just 5 feet, 2 inches, yet
made a powerful visual impact at the dawn of the MTV
era, proving to be the Little Richard for the 80s, from his
wispy moustache and tall pompadour to his colorful and
suggestive outfits the counterpart to the openly erotic
lyrics that made him one of the most sexually daring
artists of the era.
But his greatest legacy was as a musician, summoning
original and compelling sounds at will, whether playing
guitar in a flamboyant style that drew on Hendrix, switching his vocals from a nasally scream to an erotic falsetto,
or turning out album after album of stunningly innovative
material. Among his other notable releases: Sign O the
Times, Graffiti Bridge and The Black Album.
He rewrote the rulebook, forging a synthesis of black
funk and white rock that served as a blueprint for cuttingedge music in the Eighties, reads his dedication in the
Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Prince made dance music
that rocked and rock music that had a bristling, funky
backbone. From the beginning, Prince and his music were
androgynous, sly, sexy and provocative.
The 57year-old
superstar

Atlanta on April 7, after falling ill with the flu, and he
apologized to fans during a makeup concert last week.
An autopsy is scheduled for Friday.

Elvis & Nixon

recalls a bizarre
moment in history
By Jocelyn Noveck
This we know: On Dec. 21, 1970, Elvis

Presley showed up bright and early at the
White House gates, delivering a barely legible note hed scrawled on American Airlines
stationery to President Richard Nixon. He
said hed love to come by and meet the president, and that he was also seeking a badge
to be a federal agent, so he could help combat the drug culture and the hippie elements ruining the country.
And though the initial reaction of Nixons

must be kidding scrawled in the margins
of a memo that meeting did take place,
hours later. It led to an awkward Oval Office
photo that the National Archives says is its
most requested image, more than even man
walking on the moon which probably
was a more predictable sight than Elvis
Presley standing next to Nixon.
What exactly did the two men discuss? No
transcript exists, just a memo describing it.
Thats where Elvis & Nixon comes in,
filling in the blanks in a dramatization of
what has to be one of the odder White House
encounters on record.
What the movie, directed by Liza
Johnson, lacks in factual material it
replaces with whimsy and quirky humor,
helped greatly by the casting of Michael
Shannon as Presley and Kevin Spacey as
Nixon. The problem is that other than the
meeting, which is fascinating indeed,
theres not much of a story. We hear a lot
about the quest of Presleys good friend,
Jerry Schilling (Alex Pettyfer) to get back

to Los Angeles and see his girlfriend. Its
not clear why we need to know all this. It
certainly bogs down the proceedings.
We begin with Nixons aides proposing
the meeting to their skeptical, cranky boss.
Who the (expletive) set this up? Nixon
asks.
Flashback to 36 hours earlier. Presley is
watching news footage at home in
Tennessee, and doesnt like what he sees. He
takes out a gun and shoots the TV set to
smithereens.
Soon enough, hes on his way to
Washington, via Los Angeles. En route,
theres an amusing scene where some Elvis
impersonators approach him in an airport
lounge. They think hes one of them, and
want to compare notes.
Speaking of impersonation: Both Presley
and Nixon are such larger-than-life characters that any actor playing them seems likely to teeter on the precipice of mimicry.
Shannon, a terrific actor whose features
dont resemble Presleys at all, does a nice
job of avoiding the cartoonish, finding a
way to explore the essence of his character,
physically and vocally (that slurred thank
you very much.) And Spacey, who by the
way is one of our finest impressionists,
avoids mocking; hes quite funny as a
grumpy, profane man who is deeply uncomfortable in his skin.
Presented with Presleys childishly
scrawled note, Nixons young aides like the
idea of their very square boss engaging with

PRINCE
Princes talent was limitless. He was one of
the most unique and talented artists of the
last 30 years. Madonna called him a true
visionary, while Oprah Winfrey tweeted:
Prince the doves really are crying now.
Listening to your music. Remembering
you.
Even President Barack Obama for
whom Prince was a White House guest last
year released a statement, saying he and
his wife joined millions of fans from
around the world in mourning Princes sudden death.
Few artists have influenced the sound and
trajectory of popular music more distinctly,
or touched quite so many people with their
talent, Obama said. A strong spirit transcends rules, Prince once said and
nobodys spirit was stronger, bolder, or
more creative.
Born Prince Rogers Nelson, Prince broke
through in the late 1970s with the hits
Why You Wanna Treat Me So Bad? and I
Wanna Be Your Lover, and soared over the
following decade with such albums as
1999 and Purple Rain. The title song
from 1999, his funky and flippant anthem
about an oncoming nuclear holocaust,
includes one of the most quoted refrains of
popular culture: Tonight Im gonna party
like its 1999.
He won seven Grammys and received an
Academy Award in 1985 for his music from
Purple Rain, the movie in which he
WEEKEND JOURNAL
starred as a young musician. In 2004, Prince
was inducted into the Rock and Roll of
Fame, which hailed him as a musical and
social trailblazer.
Prince was fiercely protective of his independence, battling his record company over
control of his material and even his name.
Anxious to get out of his contract with
Warner Bros., he identified himself by a
key-like symbol with an unpronounceable
name. (Journalists called him TAFKAP, or
The Artist Formerly Known as Prince).
Prince also once wrote slave on his face
in protest of not owning his work and
famously fought and then departed Warner,
before returning a few years ago.
Whats happening now is the position
that Ive always wanted to be in, Prince
told the Associated Press in 2014. I was
just trying to get here.
Music was in his blood. Princes father
played in a jazz band in Minneapolis, under
the name Prince Rogers, and his mother
was the singer. The precocious young
Prince taught himself to play the piano at
age 7, the guitar at 13 and the drums at 14.
But his home life was also troubled. His parents separated when he was 10, and Prince,
who ended up with six siblings and half siblings, moved back and forth between the
homes of his mother and father.
In 1978, the year he turned 20, Prince
debuted with the album For You. It was a
declaration, if nothing else, that he could do
anything: He wrote and sang the material,
and served as his own one-man band on guitar, bass, drums, synthesizers, chimes and
assorted other instruments.
The album received mixed reviews, but his
THE DAILY JOURNAL
second album called Prince sold

more than a million copies and launched his
run of hit albums and singles over the next
few years.
But he didnt just become a star in his own
right: He was a veritable music factory,
whether with side projects, such as as
Vanity and Morris Day and The Time, or the
songs he wrote for others. Sinead OConnor
had a hit with Nothing Compares 2 U,
while other covers included Cyndi Laupers
When You Were Mine and the Bangles
Manic Monday.
Princes influence even extended to politics, well before Obamas time. In the mid1980s, Tipper Gore, wife of then-Sen. Al
Gore of Tennessee, heard one of her daughters listening to Princes Darling Nikki.
Horrified by the songs reference to masturbation, she helped launch an organization
dedicated to a labeling system for explicit
content, the Parents Music Resource Center.
A nationwide debate about censorship soon
followed, including congressional testimony from Frank Zappa among others, and the
refusal by some record sellers to offer
releases deemed in need of advisories.
Prince had been touring and recording
right up until his death, releasing four
albums in the last 18 months, including two
on the Tidal streaming service last year. He
performed in Atlanta last week as part of his
Piano and a Microphone tour, a strippeddown show that featured a mix of his hits,
like Purple Rain or Little Red Corvette,
and some B-sides from his extensive
library.
Prince debuted the intimate format at his
Paisley Park studios in January, treating
fans to a performance that was personal and

both playful and emotional at times.
The musician seemed to be shedding his
reclusive reputation. He hosted several latenight jam sessions where he serenaded
Madonna, celebrated the Minnesota Lynxs
WNBA championship and showcased his
latest protege, singer Judith Hill.
Ever surprising, he announced on stage in
New York City last month that he was writing his memoir, The Beautiful Ones,
which was expected to be released in the fall
of 2017 by publishing house Spiegel &
Grau. A press release about the memoir said
Prince would take readers on an unconventional and poetic journey through his life
and creative work, and include stories
about his music, family and the people,
places and ideas that fired his creative imagination.
A spokeswoman for Spiegel & Grau,
Theresa Zoro, said Thursday the publisher
had no immediate comment on the books
status.
About 200 fans had gathered by Thursday
afternoon outside Paisley Park, Princes
home and music studio, where his gold
records are on the walls and the purple
motorcycle he rode in his 1984 breakout
movie, Purple Rain, is on display. The
sprawling white, stone building is surrounded by a fence in Chanhassen, about 20
miles southwest of Minneapolis.

BILL
and intends to hike the allowable cap to
17 percent of the districts general fund,
is seen by the California School Boards
Association as a policy more likely to
succeed in its goal to loosen budget
restrictions.
Dennis Meyers, assistant executive
director of government relations for the
California School Boards Association,
bemoaned the failure of Bates bill,
though he said the outcome was unsurprising, as it was brought by a conservative author to a liberal Legislature.
He said he believed Hills bill, which
is set to be heard later this year, to likely be more palatable and is the target of
a majority of the associations focus
and support.
We think it is important because it is
doable, Meyers said of Hills effort. It
does give school districts some necessary flexibility to be able to weather
the next economic downturn.
The reserve limit issue has taken hold
in San Mateo County as members of
local schools boards have rallied in
support of lifting the cap as well.
Funding for many of the school districts along the Peninsula is contingent
on property tax revenue, which officials have argued is especially vulnera-
CAT
and sometimes Ill see the two of them
and hell just be sitting there petting
him. For a cat, Marcelo is almost dog
like. I do see them hanging out a lot
together and mostly when David is not
feeling well. Thats when Marcelo is
the most docile.
Her curious and playfully spirited
son met his perfect match last August
when they picked out Marcelo from a
local PetSmart store. But in a case of
mistaken
identity,
Marcelos
microchip information was switched
with a cat that looked identical to him,
Sass said.
Having recently moved to Foster
City from Folsom, Rebekah said when
Marcelo escaped their apartment, she
initially figured he would quickly return
their former cat often went outdoors.
After he spent a night out alone, they
grew worried. Fortunately, a neighbor
found Marcelo and took him to the
Peninsula Humane Society, Sass said.
They showed up before the
Burlingame animal shelter even
opened, eager to get their cat back.
But because his microchip information was accidentally switched, it
turned out to be more difficult than
usual for the PHS to prove Marcelo
23
ble to fluctuations in the economy,

making it increasingly necessary to
grant district authority to manage their
assets.
For her part, Bates said she lamented
the premature death of her bill, which
she believed was necessary to allow
school districts to protect themselves
against the threat of an unstable economy.
We have been focusing on letting
school districts determine what is best
for their particular district, she said.
So why impose a rather arbitrary cap
on those districts? It is illogical.
She blamed opposition from the
California Teachers Association as the
death knell for her bill.
This is something the teachers do
not favor, she said. Their concern is
that there wont be money in the general fund to afford the additional benefits
they claim to need.
Mike Myslinksi, spokesman for the
teachers association, said in an email
the union opposes removing cap
restrictions as officials during the most
recent economic downturn did not allocate adequate funding to the classroom,
in favor of growing large reserves.
During the recession, thousands of
educators and other school employees
were laid off while some school districts hoarded this public money and
fattened their reserves, he said.
School districts are not banks. We saw
that large reserves did not help us

weather that economic storm of the
recession. Instead, students and educators paid the price in the form of program cuts and widespread teacher layoffs.
Bates and other education advocates
for enhanced fiscal freedom though
point to the seeming disconnect
between the reserve limit and the states
implementation of Local Control
Funding Formula, designed to grant
officials greater authority managing
funds.
Meyers also noted another perceived
policy contradiction is the caps existence against Browns stated interest in
building the states reserve to protect
against an eventual slowing of the state
economy.
But regardless of whether the cap is
eventually lifted, or repealed, Meyers
said the school boards association is
committed to maintaining its advocacy.
We are doing everything we can, he
said. This is a critical issue for school
districts so we are taking it seriously,
and we are doing anything legislatively
possible to make this change this
year.
Bates too said she and others will
continue fighting to have the cap
repealed as well.
We will never give up, she said. If
we have a good idea, we will keep working, working, working.
was who he was, Sass said.

For Sass, who was about eight
months pregnant at the time and
brought both David and 10-year-old
daughter Madison, it could have been a
very stressful situation. But staff at
PHS made all the difference, she said.
Staff went above and beyond.
They were very, very patient, Sass
said, recalling how many customers
came for a variety of difficult reasons.
I never heard a judgmental tone.
People had lost chickens; I didnt even
know you could lose a chicken! It was a
little bit of chaos, and yet I didnt see
anyone lose their patience. They were
wonderful.
Instead of making the Sasses wait
several days before they could return
Marcelo, PHS staff spent nearly 90
minutes tracking down the adoption
agency that originally microchipped
the similar looking cats, and confirming the mistake with the other cats
owners.
Although she couldnt have known
that the PetSmart confused Marcelos
microchip information, making it
more difficult for staff to prove they
were the kittens rightful owners, Sass
agreed its critical for pet owners to
ensure their information is up to date.
I think its really important. People
spend hundreds and thousands of dollars on their animals every year.
Theyre part of our families and its the
same basic thing as making sure you
have a current photo of your kids. You

dont want someone to go missing and
go looking for them and nothing that
we have is going to be more effective
than a microchip, Sass said.
But there were lessons to be learned
and, when it comes to her kids, she
wanted them to realize early on theres
responsibility that comes with pet
ownership. So when Marcelo was missing, everyone pitched in to look for
him and the kids came to the PHS to
bring him home.
Its important to me, I have two kids
and they each have a cat. Its important
to me that the kids are responsible for
their animals. If you share the good
times, you have to also share the bad
times, Sass said.
Its been about a month since the kittens adventure. Now David and
Marcelo are back to being best buds.
They play everything from bubbles,
which means David blows bubbles and
Marcelo pops them; to racing cars,
which is when he lines up toys and the
two go chasing each other across the
room. And when David is in so much
pain that he can barely walk, Marcelo
can be found purring away in his lap or
asleep at his feet, Sass said.
So in her experience, its not only
dogs that can be a boys best friend.
Cats are pretty self-reliant, Sass
said. For David, a little bit lower
maintenance but still high on love, a
cat works out great.

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.

Aid reaches Syria town

amid concerns for truce
By Sarah El Deeb
BEIRUT The U. N. special

envoy for Syria said Thursday
there was real but modest
progress in the countrys humanitarian situation despite a stumbling cease-fire, as one of the
largest international aid convoys
made it into a governmentbesieged opposition stronghold.
NATO said an increasingly fragile cease-fire remains the best
hope for ending Syrias five-year
war, and the main Syrian opposition group said it would keep
experts in Geneva next week to
discuss issues like humanitarian
aid even though it has pulled back
from indirect peace talks with
President Bashar Assads government.
Staffan de Mistura, the U. N.
envoy, said he would address the
next steps in the U.N.-brokered
peace talks on Friday after the
Western-backed
opposition
walked out, accusing President
Bashar Assads government of trying to wreck the negotiations with
new fighting.
De Mistura called for improved
aid access to besieged areas, which
he said would boost chances for
salvaging the teetering cease-fire.
Bottom line: If humanitarian
aid increases as they should be and
the cessation of hostilities goes
back into what we would consider
a hopeful mood that would certainly help the political discussions,
he told reporters in Geneva, the
locale of on-and-off intra-Syrian
peace talks under U.N. mediation

in recent months.
The opposition group High
Negotiations Committee, an
umbrella group of Assad opponents, says Thursday it will keep
technical experts in Geneva
next week to focus on the truce,
humanitarian aid, and a new, accelerated push it has sought from the
U.N. to win the release of thousands of detainees held by the
Syrian government.
The
U. S. -Russia-engineered
cease-fire between Assads government and rebel fighters, which
went into effect in late February,
has excluded the Islamic State
group and al-Qaidas branch in
Syria designated as terrorist
organizations by the United
Nations. The truce has sharply
reduced violence in Syria but has
all but collapsed in the countrys
north.
Russian Foreign Ministry
spokeswoman Maria Zakharova
warned that the suspended participation of the Syrian opposition in
the Geneva talks could lead to a
return of total armed conflict.
We have a situation where terrorists are desperately trying to
disrupt the political process,
referring to the Syrian oppositions
High
Negotiations
Committee, which said Monday it
was halting its involvement in
talks, she said. Zakharova told
reporters in Moscow that the
armed standoff in Syria is growing, especially to the north and
south of Aleppo.
While the Russian official

blamed Turkey for continuing to
destabilize Syria by colluding
with extremist groups, U. S.
deputy national security adviser
Ben
Rhodes
expressed
Washingtons concern about a
reported Russian buildup in Syria.
He addressed reports that Russia
was moving military personnel
and equipment back into Syria
weeks after Moscow said that it
would scale back its presence.
A Russian air campaign aiding
the Syrian government launched
in September has significantly
reversed the tide of the war in
recent months, enabling government advances.
It would be negative for Russia

ity to continue implementing the greenhouse gas reduction plan, but it suggests a
lawsuit challenging them could be successful.
The Democratic governor issued the executive order last year setting a new target for
cutting carbon emissions to 40 percent
below 1990 levels by 2030.
But in a letter dated Tuesday, Boyer-Vine
said only the Legislature can require impose
carbon-reduction mandates stricter than
those adopted in 2006 and signed into law
by then-Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger.
Furthermore, she wrote, lawmakers couldnt
grant Brown the authority to impose his
own emission target even if they wanted to.
Boyer-Vines letter in response to questions from Senate Minority Leader Jean
Fuller, R-Bakersfield, was provided
Thursday to the Associated Press.
We think the determination of a standard
for the statewide (greenhouse gas) emissions limit is a fundamental policy decision
that only the Legislature can make, the letter said.
Before Browns order, California was on
track to meet the goal established in 2006
of cutting carbon emissions to 1990 levels
by 2020, partly by forcing companies to
pay for their pollution. Browns executive
order seeks to speed the timeline, aligning

Californias goal with that of the 28-nation
European Union.
Stanley Young, a spokesman for the Air
Resources Board, the Brown administration
agency that runs the program, disputed the
legal analysis.
While the 2020 limit is an important
first step in measuring progress, climate
change will not end in 2020, Young said.
Overturning the executive order would be a
blow to Browns effort to establish a legacy
and a global identity as a crusader against
climate change. Brown was scheduled to
attend a signing ceremony for the Paris climate change agreement Friday at the United
Nations headquarters in New York. He highlighted the executive order in a press release
announcing his trip.
While Democrats maintain overwhelming
control of the Legislature, Brown would face
difficulty winning legislative approval for
his emissions targets. A group of moderate
Democrats in the Assembly has sided with
business interests against efforts by Brown
and conservation groups to create stronger
environmental protections.
The Legislature should not advance the
cap-and-trade program under this dark legal
cloud, said Sen. Jim Nielsen, R-Gerber.
SHOOTING
The shooting surprised residents in the

quiet Millbrae community in a neighborhood lined with single-family homes.
Seaman is the owner of the company
Commercial & Domestic Carpet Cleaning,
which lists its address as 274 La Cruz Ave.,
the home where the shooting occurred.
Neighbors noted Seaman had a quick temper
and were unable to confirm the nature of his
relationship with the woman. However,
they believed she had only recently moved
in to the home where Seaman had lived since
the 1970s.

gators may now believe the womans shooting may have been accidental as the
Sheriffs Office plans to file a charge of
assault, not attempted murder. Its also not
clear as to how many shots were fired or
whether both Seaman and the womans
injuries were caused by a single bullet.
to move additional military equipment or personnel in to Syria,

Rhodes told reporters Thursday in
Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, where
President Barack Obama and Gulf
leaders were meeting to discuss
Syria and other regional conflicts.
We believe that our efforts are
best focused on supporting the
diplomatic process.
NATO Secretary-General Jens
Stoltenberg echoed that stance,
saying that Russia has maintained
a considerable military presence
in support of the Syrian government despite announcing a partial
withdrawal.
Speaking in the Turkish capital,
Ankara, Stoltenberg said the
cease-fire was under strain but

remains the best basis for a negotiated, peaceful solution to the crisis.
Despite the dire straits in the
political talks, de Mistura said
there has been modest progress in
the humanitarian situation in
Syria where aid convoys have
reached 560,000 people in hardto-reach and besieged areas. He
also said six areas remain off limits to the aid convoys.
De Mistura told reporters that
515 people were medically evacuated Wednesday from four communities, Zabadani, Madaya, Kfarya
and Foua, besieged by government and rebel groups.
