County opposes jail visit bill


Legislation could require in-person contact, cost $6 million
By Bill Silverfarb
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

San Mateo County officially


opposes a bill to make in-person
jail visits mandatory by 2022,
according to County Manager
John Maltbie.
Visits to the new $165 million

Maple Street Correctional Center


in Redwood City, which opened in
March, are now restricted to video
only.
Senate Bill 1157, authored by
state Sen. Holly Mitchell, D-Los
Angeles, requires that all jails in
California that do not currently
offer in-person visitation to do so

by 2022 without state funding.


The bill passed out of the
Assembly Aug. 24, on a 48-20
vote with 12 members not voting
on
the
item
including
Assemblymen Kevin Mullin, DSouth San Francisco, and Rich
Gordon, D-Menlo Park.
It passed out of the state Senate

Aug. 29 on a 29-6 vote with four


members not voting. State Sen.
Jerry Hill, D-San Mateo, did vote
yes for the bill, however.
The bill now goes to Gov. Jerry
Brown for his signature and the
county will request a veto from the
governor based on financial
impacts.

The Sheriffs Office estimates


the cost to implement in-person
visits at the facility to be more
than $6 million.

enlarge Coyote Points beach and
plant nearly 120 trees in an area that
has seen its share of big plans in the past,
including one dream that came true: Making
Coyote Point the Coney Island of the
West. It wasnt long before the dream
became a nightmare, financially speaking.
A 1920s amusement park venture dubbed
Pacific City featured The Comet, a rollercoaster ride promoters claimed was the
fastest, highest and longest around. There
also was a 468-foot pier that pointed like a
finger jutting into the Bay. The structure
berthed vessels that cruised to San
Francisco and other major cities. Adjacent
to the pier and fronting the 3,200-foot
boardwalk was a spacious dance floor that
was host to some of the best bands of the
Roaring 20s. Along the boardwalk was a
bathing beach created by trucking in 2,000
tons of white sand from Monterey.
According to the Burlingame Historical
Society, the grand opening of the amusement park was a four-day affair that started
on July 1, 1922, and drew 17,000 fans who
each paid a dime to pass through the gates.
Crowds increased by the thousands and
reached their attendance peak just three days
later on July 4, 1922, when 100,000 people
entered Pacific City.
One million people entered the park by
the time it shut down temporarily in

By that time something had hit the fan: Due
to rapid growth, the city of Burlingame neglected to provide adequate sewage disposal,
allowing raw sewage to flow into the Bay.
The undesirable odor of sewage cast a
shadow over park attendance and, because of
polluted water, the county health officials
closed the beach for swimming, the historical society said on its website. At the end
of the 1923 season, the lights went out at
Pacific City.
Long before Pacific City debuted, Coyote

especially for bathing and picnicking. It

Input sought for Belmonts future


Environmental impact report initiated for three planning documents
By Samantha Weigel
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

In preparing for growth and possible new developments over the


next 20 years, the city of Belmont
is seeking community input on
what environmental factors
should be studied as part of three
comprehensive planning documents.
The Planning Commission
meets Tuesday for a scoping session on what factors should be

considered in an environmental
impact report covering the
General Plan update, the new
Belmont Village Specific Plan and
its Climate Action Plan.
The city has been preparing the
various documents that collectively cover a variety of issues from
how to promote economic development and zoning for housing
density to considering transportation and reducing greenhouse gas
emissions.
Although the planning docu-

ments do not explicitly trigger or


guarantee any new developments,
they could help streamline projects that adhere to the citys zoning codes, said Community
Development Director Carlos de
Melo.
Its hard to predict whats
going to happen within the next
20 years, because you go through
hot
economies
and down
economies. But it is required by
law that we prepare an environmental document that looks at

forecasting, looks at future potential impacts, de Melo said, referring


to
the
California
Environmental Quality Act, or
CEQA. You wouldnt just adopt
documents that suggest standards
without any sort of assessment.
You want to look at traffic
impacts, air quality, greenhouse
gas, all of those things. Its a necessary part of advanced planning.
Tuesdays scoping session will
serve as an opportunity for plan-

ning commissioners and the public to offer suggestions on what


should be considered in the report.
Potential
environmental
impacts to be studied include air
quality, biological resources,
geology, hazardous materials,
hydrology and water quality, land
use, population and housing,
noise, transportation and more,
according to city documents.
De Melo noted traffic, parking

Native salmon struggling in fifth year of drought


By Ellen Knickmeyer
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

STINSON BEACH The sleek,


flapping salmon that fishermen
hauled aboard the rolling Salty
Lady charter boat near the Golden
Gate Bridge were the survivors of
the survivors.
After five years of drought, the
native Chinook salmon that the
men were reeling in this past week
were there only because state and
federal agencies have stepped in to
do much of the salmon-raising
that Californias overtapped rivers
once did. Most of the fish were
born at the agencies hatcheries
and carried in trucks for release
downstream.

As the men watched and waited


for one of their fishing poles to
dip sharply, Victor Gonella, president of the Golden Gate Salmon
Association, remembered his
childhood in the 1950s and 1960s
when the salmon population was
healthy enough that he could fish
most months.
Gonella recounted fishermen
struggling to land salmon that had
made their way to the Pacific
Ocean from the San Joaquin River
in particular, the fish powerful
from muscling their own way from
river to ocean.
These days, he said, if it
werent for these fish that were
trucked, we wouldnt be fishing.

Botti said. The jail lobby is closed

Thong Vang, 37, is accused of

dry for dozens of miles at a stretch


for decades, its water diverted to
booming farms and cities.
With the drought bringing one
of the driest periods in
Californias history, federal and
state authorities increasingly
have had to intervene mechanically to carry out key stretches of the
life cycle of salmon, whose numbers were already declining.
In 2014 and 2015, authorities
reared millions of young salmon
in artificial hatcheries and trucked
them downstream to keep the fishing industrys mainstay supply of
fall-run Chinook salmon afloat.
Another kind of California
Chinook salmon, the winter-run,
won federal listing in 2015 as one

of the eight U.S. species most in


danger of imminent extinction,
after too-low and too-warm water
in state rivers all but wiped out the
2014 and 2015 populations of the
youngest winter-run salmon.
Not all salmon from state and
federal hatcheries are tagged, but
on this day, after hours of fishing,
two of the nine salmon that were
caught bear the clipped fin and
tiny metal tag of hatcheries.
Management of Californias
river water is a balancing act
thats often described as fish versus farmers. With dams blocking
more than 90 percent of the
salmons original river habitat,
agencies have struggled in the
drought to release enough water at

the right times to suit the needs of


both crops and wildlife in the San
Francisco Bay-Delta complex, the
West Coasts largest estuary.
Because the salmon grow,
spawn and die in three-year cycles,
the troubles of 2014 and 2015
made it critical that everything
go well this year for winter-run
salmon in particular, said Jason
Roberts, a fisheries supervisor for
the California Department of Fish
and Wildlife.
So far, Chinook appear for now
to have caught the critical break
they needed, thanks to rain and
snow from El Nino-related storms
this past winter.

Daughter of Lantos returns Hungarian award in protest


By Pablo Gorondi
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BUDAPEST, Hungary The


daughter of late, Hungarian-born
U.S. Congressman Tom Lantos is
returning a distinguished state
award to Hungary to protest the
bestowing of the same award to
journalist and writer Zsolt Bayer
who has made anti-Semitic and
racist references in his articles.
Katrina Lantos Swett, who
received the Knights Cross of the
Order of Merit in 2009, joined
over 100 other recipients in
returning their awards.
The United States Holocaust
Memorial Museum in Washington
earlier called on Prime Minister
Viktor Orban and President Janos
Ader, who respectively nominated
and granted the award to Bayer to
immediately rescind it.
Aders office told news website

hvg. hu
that
based on current laws the
award couldnt
be recalled.
Lantos Swett
was honored for
her work in setting up the
Budapest-based
Tom Lantos
Tom
Lantos
Institute, which focuses on minority rights. Tom Lantos, a
California Democrat who died in
2008, was the only Holocaust survivor in the U.S. Congress.
Lantos Swett said that she had
hoped to leave the award to her
children, but felt Bayers distinction had sullied the Knights
Cross.
Mr. Bayers despicable record
of overt and hateful anti-Semitism
and racism is beneath contempt.
He deserves censure, not honor,

for his loathsome writings and


speech, Lantos Swett said in a
statement, adding that she was
sure her father would call on
Hungary to restore the honor and
virtue of this award by stripping
Mr. Bayer of this unmerited recognition.
Daily newspaper Magyar Hirlap
was fined by media authorities in
2013 and earlier this year for hateful remarks about Roma and
Muslims in Bayers columns.
In 2013, writing about a New
Years Eve bar fight in which several people were seriously injured
and some of the attackers were
identified as Roma, Bayer wrote:
A significant part of the Roma

not fit to live among people.

Bayer, a member of Orbans
governing Fidesz party, was distinguished with the Knights
Cross on Aug. 20 for his writings
about the Hungarian minority in
Transylvania, the fates of
Hungarian prisoners in the Soviet
Gulag prison system and for his
exemplary journalistic activities.
Bayer told website Mandiner.hu
that receiving the award required
him to be more restrained and, for
example, abandon the foul language he often uses in his
columns. Last year, he also said he
regretted using some of the phrases deemed to be racist or antiSemitic.
The Federation of Hungarian
Jewish Communities issued an
ironic statement saying that the

government had given Bayer the


award to cheer up the unsuccessful
and grumpy journalist, since his
frustrated cursing, and monotonous, hysterical and pitiful hatred
harms not only he himself but the
public mood, as well.
Several earlier recipients of
state awards, including Miklos
Haraszti,
a former OSCE
Representative on Freedom of
the Media, were planning to auction off their medals on Sunday
in benefit of destitute children
and families, but the event was
canceled.
Auction sponsor Klubradio,
which the Orban government
tried for years to ban from the
airwaves, said it was called off
because organizers of a street festival where the auction would
have been held asked for its cancellation because of its political
nature.

Arizona is home to best chance for a spoiler


By Thomas Beaumont

toral votes to
win the presidency.
In
Arizona, where
the Republican
nominee has
carried the state
in 11 of the past
12 presidential
Hillary Clinton e l e c t i o n s ,
Johnson could
play the spoiler, potentially putting 11 electoral votes in
Clintons column.
The GOPs recent struggle with
independent-minded, small-government Libertarians was clear
before Trumps speech Wednesday
in Phoenix, when he reaffirmed a
hard line on immigration. And his
stance could alienate the roughly
one-quarter of Hispanic voters in
the state who usually align with
Republicans.
I think that right now were at a
tipping point, where at any
moment we are going to begin to
see an outpouring of support,
said Latino GOP strategist Juan
Hernandez, who works for
Johnson in Arizona.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

PHOENIX If Hillary Clinton


carries Arizona in November,
theres a good chance it wont be
because Democrats on their own
have flipped a reliable GOP state
they hope to win consistently
someday.
Instead, Clinton and Democrats
may have Gary Johnson to thank.
The Libertarian Party nominees
best chance to influence the presidential race may come in Arizona,
where the former New Mexico
governor appeals to a group of
finicky conservatives who make
up part of the GOP base.
It could happen, said GOP
Sen. Jeff Flake. Donald Trump
has managed to make this an interesting state in terms of presidential politics, and not in the way
that Republicans have wanted.
Johnson is an easy out for
some people in our party, Flake
told the Associated Press.
About a dozen of the most contested states will help determine
which candidate gets the 270 elec-

Sensing an opportunity herself,


Clinton began airing television
advertisements in the state Friday,
and has reserved $500,000 in ad
time through mid-September.
Democratic strategist Andy Barr
said Hispanic turnout was the
multimillion-dollar question.
About one-third of the states population identifies as Latino, but
their share of the vote ranges
between 12 percent and 16 percent, according to public and private polling.
This closer it gets to 20 percent, the more our chances of winning go up, Barr said.
Johnson will appear on the ballot in every state this fall, while
Green Party nominee Jill Stein is
on track to make it in at least half.
Neither is remotely within reach
of carrying a state. Neither seems
in a position to tip any state
toward Trump.
But Johnson could move a close
race toward Clinton, in much the
same way that Ralph Nader pulled
enough votes away from Democrat
Al Gore in 2000 to hand Florida to
Republican George W. Bush.

Four years ago, Libertarian candidates in Arizona drew enough


votes away from Republicans that
Democrats Ann Kirkpatrick and
Kyrsten Sinema won election to
the U.S. House.
Flake, who had endeared himself
to many Libertarians while serving in the House, won his Senate
race that year, too.
Its a really sore spot for the
party, Arizona Republican Party
spokesman Tim Sifert said of
those 2012 results. You could see
people frustrated, throwing away
their vote and going with a thirdparty candidate.
The views of most Libertarians,
focused on personal liberty and
small government, overlap more
with Republicans than Democrats.
Johnsons call for dramatically
lower business taxes and regulation to unburden entrepreneurs
resonates with Matthew Sherman
of Phoenix, who describes himself as more as a conservative than
as a Republican.
Im for whoever has the best
plan on startup companies, said
the 31-year-old whos working on

a business networking app. So


far, thats Gary.
Republican Dave Richins, a
councilman in Mesa City, said
Johnson is conservative on
spending, but tolerant on social
issues, which he calls a pragmatic combination.
For me, a lifelong Republican,
I dont agree with everything
Johnson proposes, said Richins,
a Johnson organizer. But I find
his pragmatism refreshing. Thats
how we get things done.
Johnsons hands-off approach
to government also includes
decriminalizing marijuana, and he
could benefit from a November
ballot proposal in Arizona on that
question.
Thats another reason for
Libertarians to vote in higher
numbers, said Barr, who is running the decriminalization campaign. Were inclined to believe
that could increase Johnsons performance.
Johnson is spending in a few
competitive campaign states,
including Colorado, Iowa, New
Hampshire and Wisconsin.

with a heavy New Jersey accent.
Despite being passed over for

Lawmakers likely to do what

WASHINGTON Lawmakers return to Washington this
week for an abbreviated election-season session in which
they will likely do what they do best: the bare minimum.
All Congress must do this month is keep the government
from shutting down on Oct. 1 and, with any luck, finally
provide money for the fight against the mosquito-borne
Zika virus. Republicans controlling Congress promise
they wont stumble now, but the weeks ahead could prove
tricky.
A chief motivation for the September session, especially
for Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., is
allowing lawmakers to return to campaigning as soon as
possible. Republicans are scrambling to hold onto their
Senate edge as GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump
lags in the polls.

mind boggling challenge.

very public swings at his opponent-turned-ally. Hes called the

Also Christie, like a number of
Trumps closest advisers, brings
his own share of baggage to the
campaign. The embattled governor is still grappling with the fallout from a scandal back home,
after lanes were closed on the
George Washington bridge for
political retribution. Lawyers for
former Christie appointee Bill

Christie flat out lied about his

Mother Teresa canonized at Vatican


By Nicole Winfield
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

VATICAN CITY Elevating the


saint of the gutters to one of the
Catholic Churchs highest honors, Pope Francis on Sunday
praised Mother Teresa for her radical dedication to societys outcasts and her courage in shaming
world leaders for the crimes of
poverty they themselves created.
An estimated 120,000 people
filled St. Peters Square for the
canonization ceremony, less than
half the number who turned out for
her 2003 beatification. It was nevertheless the highlight of Francis
Holy Year of Mercy and quite possibly one of the defining moments
of his mercy-focused papacy.
Francis has been dedicated to
ministering to societys most
marginal, from prostitutes to prisoners, refugees to the homeless.
In that way, while the canonization of St. Teresa of Kolkata was

a celebration of
her life and
work, it was
also something
of an affirmation of Francis
own papal priorities, which
have
earned
Mother Teresa him praise and
criticism alike.
Let us carry her smile in our
hearts and give it to those whom
we meet along our journey, especially those who suffer, Francis
said in his homily.
Born Agnes Gonxhe Bojaxhiu
on Aug. 26, 1910, Teresa came to
India in 1929 as a sister of the
Loreto order. In 1946, she
received what she described as a
call within a call to found a new
order dedicated to caring for the
most unloved and unwanted, the
poorest of the poor in the slums
of her adopted city, Kolkata.
The Missionaries of Charity

order went on to become one of


the most well-known in the world,
with more than 4,000 sisters in
their trademark blue-trimmed
white saris doing as Teresa
instructed: small things with
great love.
At the orders Mother House in
Kolkata, hundreds of people
watched the Mass on TV and
clapped with joy when Francis
declared her a saint.
They gathered around Teresas
tomb which was decorated with
flowers, a single candle and a
photo of the wrinkled saint.
I am so proud to be from
Kolkata, said Sanjay Sarkar, a
high school student on hand for
the celebration. Mother Teresa
belonged to Kolkata, and she has
been declared a saint.
For Francis, Teresa put into
action his ideal of the church as a
field hospital for those suffering both material and spiritual
poverty, living on the physical

Voters turn out in force for


crucial Hong Kong election
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

HONG KONG Voters turned out in force


Sunday for Hong Kongs most crucial election since the handover from Britain in
1997, the outcome of which could pave the
way for a fresh round of political confrontations over Beijings control of the city.
The vote for Legislative Council lawmakers will test the unity of Hong Kongs prodemocracy camp, with a new generation of
radical activists joining the race after
emerging in the wake of 2014 pro-democra-

cy street protests.
Theyre hoping to ride a rising tide of
anti-China sentiment as they challenge formidably resourced pro-Beijing rivals for
seats. Many of the newcomers back the previously unthinkable idea of independence
for Hong Kong, which has added to divisions with the broader pro-democracy
movement and overshadowed the election.
Last month, officials disqualified six proindependence candidates in an attempt to
tamp down the debate, though other candidates with similar views made the cut.

and existential peripheries of


society.
In his homily, Francis praised
her as the merciful saint who
defended the lives of the unborn,
sick and abandoned, recalling her
strong opposition to abortion
which often put her at odds with
progressives around the world.
She bowed down before those
who were spent, left to die on the
side of the road, seeing in them
their God-given dignity, he said.
Teresas most famous critic,
Christopher Hitchens, has accused
her of taking donations from dictators charges church authorities deny. Francis chose to emphasize her other dealings with the
powerful.
She made her voice heard
before the powers of the world, so
that they might recognize their
guilt for the crimes of poverty
they themselves created, he said,
repeating for emphasis the
crimes of poverty.

Hundreds of Missionaries of
Charity sisters had front-row seats
at the Mass, alongside 1, 500
homeless people and 13 heads of
state or government and even royalty: Queen Sofia of Spain. For the
homeless, Francis offered a luncheon afterward in the Vatican auditorium, catered by a Neapolitan
pizza maker who brought his own
ovens for the event.
Her heart, she gave it to the
world, said Charlotte Samba, a
52-year-old mother of three who
traveled with a church group from
Gabon for the Mass. Mercy, forgiveness, good works: It is the
heart of a mother for the poor.
While big, the crowd attending
the canonization wasnt even half
of the 300,000 who turned out for
Mother Teresas 2003 beatification celebrated by an ailing St.
John Paul II. The low turnout suggested that financial belt-tightening and security fears in the wake
of Islamic extremist attacks.

Islamic State loses territory


along Syria-Turkey border

BEIRUT Turkish troops and allied


Syrian rebels expelled the Islamic State
group from the last strip of territory it controlled along the Syrian-Turkish border on
Sunday, effectively sealing the extremists
self-styled caliphate off from the outside
world, Turkeys prime minister and a Syrian
opposition group reported.
Also on Sunday, Syrian pro-government
forces backed by airstrikes launched a wide
offensive in the northern city of Aleppo,
capturing areas they lost last month and
besieging rebel-held neighborhoods, state
media and opposition activists said.
Turkey-backed Free Syrian Army rebels
cleared the area between the northern Syrian
border towns of Azaz and Jarablus, Turkeys
prime minister, Binali Yildirim, said.

From Azaz to Jarablus, 91 kilometers (57


miles) of our border has been completely
secured. All the terrorist organizations are
pushed back, they are gone, Yildirim said,
speaking at a dinner with non-government
organizations in the southeastern city of
Diyarbakir.
The FSAs advance shut down key supply
lines used by IS to bring in foreign fighters,
weapons and ammunition.
The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for
Human Rights said IS has lost its link with
the outside world after losing all border
areas with Turkey. It said the last two border villages that IS held were Mizab and Qadi
Jarablus, which were taken Sunday afternoon.
IS had occupied the border area even
before it declared its self-styled caliphate in
June 2014.

Seeking a sense of community


By David Thom

or those of us whom have


lived in the Bay Area for a
while, something is missing.
This would be a sense of community. I
am 61 years of age and I yearn for the
days of past. This was a time when
you could wave to someone you didnt
know and they might smile and wave
back. Today, you would not wave for
fear that, well, you just dont do it. It
might not be safe.
We are in a different time. Most of
us are in such a hurry (or we are on our
smart device) we have forgotten how
to talk to one another. Good manners
are a thing of the past. Not for me
though. And I will not fall in line
with the new habits. Why you say?
Because I dont believe it is right.
Like many people, I am considering
leaving the Bay Area for a place that
is like it used to be. I will not let you
know where that is because I do not
want this new home to become like
the Bay Area. I was in a grocery store
recently looking face to face with a
wine bottle when a young lad walked

between me and the


bottle without a
word. Excuse me
was a foreign substance to him. I
almost said something but I bit my
tongue instead. I
knew this was a
losing battle.
I know of many local citizens who
have left the Bay Area for a kinder
(less expensive, friendlier, etc.)
place. One of them moved from San
Carlos to Idaho because he did not
want to raise a child here. This comment really drove the point home.
Recently, there have been stories in
the papers about city ofcials working for Palo Alto and San Francisco
objecting to the price of homes.
Today, I could not afford the home I
bought in San Carlos 25 years ago. I
am one of the lucky ones who owns a
home. But this is not fair (or right) to
many rst-time home buyers. It is not
the way it should be.
So this week I will drive 2.5 hours
away from the Bar Area to a place
where people are civil to one another

and there is no cellphone reception.


We actually take people with us to
share this experience. Susan went
with us last week and her comment
was, If only we could bring this back
to the Bay Area.
Even though I have lived in San
Carlos all my life it will be time to
move on some day down the road I
feel. I do not recognize this town anymore and miss the way it used to be.
Call me strong willed (perhaps stubborn) but I will not give in to change
which is not right by me.
And the really sad part about this is
most new millennials do not know
what I am talking about in this piece.
They are the ones jogging down the
street or with a baby carriage busy
talking on their cellphone oblivious
to everything around them (including
the baby).
Good luck new millennials, I suggest you slow down and smell the
roses. Life is short.

Letters to the editor


The spectacle of loss

Rotarys good work

Editor,
I remember in the 1970s an unending steam of stories about seniors
losing their homes. Home prices were
appreciating rapidly at the time and
property taxes skyrocketed as a
result. People on xed incomes couldnt pay the increased costs and were
losing their homes.
This spectacle of loss was an
important reason for which the
California Proposition 13 was passed
in 1978. The proposition limited the
rate at which property taxes could
increase, establishing a maximum
annual increase of 2 percent. In 2016,
we are witnessing yet another spectacle of loss, but this time it is renters
who are suffering the loss. As rents
rise rapidly, renters are losing thir
ability to remain in their homes and
are being forced out of communities
where they have lived and worked for
many years.
As a result, community members in
several Peninsula cities have gathered
signatures to put rent stabilization on
the November ballot. These initiatives would limit the rate at which
rents can increase, extending to
renters the same kind of protection
homeowners currently have under
Proposition 13.
This seems fair to me.

Editor,
The great work of the 170 member
Rotary Club of San Mateo often goes
unnoticed. This year, the hard work of
the clubs members resulted in the
club awarding $82,800 in college
scholarships to graduating high
school seniors with a nancial need.
The club raises the scholarship
money through year-round fundraising efforts; including a rafe, a 5K
and 10K Fun Run and a classic car
show.
The club also has a SMART program for eighth-graders who have
never thought college an option, due
to the cost. Thirty students are selected based upon their potential and a
$500 bank accounts opened for each
of them at Boston Private Bank.
Annual academic, personal and
extracurricular goals are set with each
student and Rotarians follow up to
ensure that the goals are met throughout high school. Coaches approve an
additional $100 deposit to each
account every year that a student
meets the goals set.
Upon graduation from high school,
the scholarship awards are paid to the
students heading on to college. Over
the years, the SMART project has
been in place, 811 middle school students have been helped with a total of
$675,000. Ninety-percent of the students in the SMART program go on to

The future of the
American political
party system
Melissa R. Michelson

he Founding Fathers did not expect political parties


to be a part of the American system of government,
but a healthy two-party system is crucial for our
democracy. Donald Trumps campaign of
hate is weakening the Republican Party
and threatening that system.
Parties developed years after the
Constitution was approved, in the wake
of the 1824 election. Prior to 1824, the
federal government was generally ruled
by only one party, and the period was
known as the Era of Good Feelings.
Those good feelings ended dramatically
with the contested battle of 1824, when the House of
Representatives voted to give the presidency to John
Quincy Adams rather than to Andrew Jackson, despite the
fact that Jackson had won the most Electoral College and
popular votes (but not enough to win outright, which is why
the decision went to the House, as outlined in the
Constitution). Jacksons supporters organized as the new
Democratic Party; opponents as the Whig Party. The ght
over abolition tore apart that party system and generated the
new Republican Party in the 1850s, which replaced the
Whigs as the opposition party to the Democrats.
Today, political parties are vital to our democracy. Not
just in terms of nominating candidates and structuring elections, but for the daily deliberation among elected ofcials
that generates our laws and regulations. America needs two
strong political parties. But Trumps campaign of hate is
threatening that system.
As Hillary Clinton emphasized in a speech in Reno,
Nevada, Trump is being embraced by white nationalist altright activists. He has been endorsed by the Ku Klux Klans
Imperial Wizard and by former KKK Grand Wizard David
Duke. Trump regularly retweets posts from white supremacists and Nazi sympathizers. He is mainstreaming hate.
It seems quite likely at this point that our next president
will be the Democratic Partys Clinton. Before it is too late,
the hate that Trump is bringing out from the shadows needs
to be disavowed by all GOP leaders and voters. Not doing so
will constitute a body blow to the GOP that will hurt the
party and our democracy.
Some Republican leaders are distancing themselves.
Earlier this month, more than 70 Republicans, former members of Congress and Republican National Committee
staffers, wrote an open letter to RNC Chair Reince Priebus,
urging him to stop helping Trumps campaign.
For the sake of their party, and for the good of the country, the GOP needs to pivot away as much as possible from
their presidential nominee, disavow his message of white
supremacy, and focus instead on supporting Republican candidates and incumbents in the U.S. Congress.
This is because the long-term health of the GOP is best
served by emerging from the 2016 election in the best position possible to present a strong opposition to a
Democratic presidency, and to build an agenda for the 2020
campaign. While presidents have a variety of executive
actions that they can take without congressional approval,
there is much that presidents cant do without Congress,
such as change laws or ll vacancies in the federal judiciary.
Some GOP leaders have said their support of Trump is tied
to the likelihood of vacancies appearing over the next four
years on the U.S. Supreme Court, and the importance of having a Republican in place to make nominations to ll those
vacancies. But if Clinton wins, as seems increasingly likely, then the key will be for the GOP to hold enough seats in
the Senate to force the president to nominate moderates to
the Court. Even if Democrats win back majority control of
the Senate, Republicans can use their minority power to
block unacceptable nominees.
The GOP needs to look beyond the likely defeat of Trump
this November and focus on how to win in 2020. A recent
Pew report estimated that there are 10.7 million more eligible voters today than there were in 2012; two-thirds of that
growth has been among ethnic and racial minorities, including 4 million new eligible Latino voters. As these trends
continue, it wont just be the GOP presidential nominee who
stumbles as a result of relying on a campaign of racism and
hate, it will be the broader Republican Party. And that will
bring terrible consequences not just for Republicans, but for
the United States.
Democrats and progressives may look eagerly toward
Trumps defeat, but no one should want to see the destruction
of our two-party system. As the Founding Fathers knew, a
healthy government is one that is checked by opposing
powers. A country dominated by just one political party
would constitute a threat to our freedoms and our democracy.

Summit opens amid sluggish growth


By Joe McDonald
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

HANGZHOU, China Chinese


President Xi Jinping called Sunday
for leaders of the United States,
Germany
and other major
economies to resist pressure to
raise trade barriers as they opened a
summit amid sluggish global
growth and disputes over Chinas
steel exports and Apples Irish tax
bill.
China made trade a theme of the
Group of 20 meeting even as
Beijing faces complaints it is
flooding world markets with lowcost steel, fueling demands for trade
curbs.
The president of the European
Commission highlighted the conflict by calling for the summit to
take action.
Opening the two-day meeting in
this lakeside city southwest of
Shanghai, Xi called for more innovation to spur economic growth

and reforms to global financial and


economic
management.
He
appealed for cooperation in taxes,
anti-corruption and measures to
improve the ability of the world
economy to resist risks.
Chinese officials said earlier that
Beijing would propose a plan to
boost trade and innovation through
regulatory changes and closer government cooperation.
We should build an open world
economy, Xi said before an audience that included President Barack
Obama, German Chancellor Angela
Merkel, British Prime Minister
Theresa May and leaders from
Japan, South Korea, India and other
governments.
Group of 20 countries should
abide by their commitment to avoid
taking new protectionist measures,
strengthen investment policy
cooperation and take effective
action to promote trade growth, Xi
said.
China hopes to use its status as

this years G-20 leader to increase


its influence in global economic
management. Chinese officials say
they want the G-20, created to coordinate the response to the 2008
financial crisis, to take on a longerterm regulatory role.
The World Trade Organization is

Leaders at the meeting have said
they will call for inclusive

defuse pressure to protect local
industries by spreading the benefits
of closer global integration to millions of people who have been left
behind by wrenching changes.
Obama stressed that theme at a
separate news conference with

We understand that many of our
citizens are frustrated by the pace of
globalization and feel theyre not
experiencing the benefits of inter-

Juncker also rejected U.S. criticism of the order for Ireland to collect $14.5 billion in back taxes

Apple improperly received government aid in the form of tax rates that

New air links raise hopes

SANTA CLARA, Cuba The first off


JetBlue 387 were the TV cameramen, the
U.S. secretary of transportation and the airline executives.
As the tropical sun beat the tarmac, the
VIPs traded congratulations on the arrival of
the first commercial flight from the U.S. to
Cuba in more than 50 years. Away from the
cameras, a small but potentially more
important group made its way through Santa
Claras single-terminal airport: a pair of
backpackers from Oregon and a book editor
from Chicago and his 16-year-old daughter
the first U.S. tourists on the newly
reestablished flights.
By December, the four will have a lot of
company, with some 300 direct flights a
week scheduled from the U.S. to 10 cities
across Cuba. Americas biggest airlines and
the Obama administration hope the planes
will carry hundreds of thousands of U.S.
travelers, both Cuban-Americans visiting
family and sightseers who will turn the

largest island in the Caribbean back into a


major U.S. vacation destination.
For U.S. airlines its a chance to move
into an untapped market less than an hours
flight from Miami. For Cubans, it means
waves of demanding but high-tipping
Americans could transform the landscape in
cities like Santa Clara that have been off the
well-trod tourist track for now.
The best tourist there is, is the American
tourist, said 25-year-old Liban Bermudez
as he sold 16-year-old Sophia Compton a
pair of handmade leather sandals from his
stand off Santa Claras main plaza. Theyre
the ones that buy the most.
For President Barack Obama, the reestablishment of commercial air links with Cuba
is the last major chance to make a key part
of his foreign policy legacy irreversible
before he leaves office.
In the year since the U.S. and Cuba reestablished diplomatic relations, government ties have grown quickly, generating a
string of bilateral agreements on issues
from environmental protection to public
health.

investment.
Free trade must be fair trade,
Juncker said at a news conference
with Donald Tusk, president of the
European Council.
Another prominent issue at the
summit is G-20 member Britains
June vote to leave the 28-nation
EU, seen by some analysts as the
first in a wave of moves by other
nations to retreat from free trade.
Germany, South Korea and other
governments say they also want to
discuss climate, energy and possible reforms to the global tax system to reduce tax evasion.
The meeting began on a diplomatic high note following a joint
announcement Saturday by Obama
and Xi that their governments had
submitted documents committing
them to carrying out the Paris climate agreement.
But U.S. and other officials say
they plan to bring up Chinese
industrial overcapacity and other
potentially
thorny
issues.

Bulldogs drop season opener in Modesto


By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

MODESTO With the Bulldogs playing


uphill throughout Saturdays opener at
Modesto Junior College, it was one thirdquarter fumble that spelled their doom.
No. 9-ranked College of San Mateo (0-1)
never led in the 37-27 loss to the No. 24ranked Modesto Pirates (1-0), but the feeling was palpable in the second half that a
quick developing drive was on the verge of
turning the tide. With the Bulldogs trailing
by 10, sophomore quarterback Bobby

Modesto 37, CSM 27


Calmeyn making his
first collegiate start
had just completed passes of 32 and 25 yards to
advance to the Modesto
11-yard line.
Then the whole thing
Bobby Calmeyn came undone for the
Bulldogs, as Modesto
linebacker Angel Roblero blitzed into the
backfield untouched to strip Calmeyn on the
ball, and sophomore safety Brandon

Dabney scooped it up and sprinted 85 yards


for a touchdown to stun CSM.
We had the momentum going, CSM
head coach Larry Owens said. But you just
cant do that (turn the ball over).
It was a night of a few glaring blemishes
for Calmeyn who otherwise impressed in
his first start. The freshman was 29-of-45
passing for 361 yards and four touchdown
throws. But he accounted for three of the
Bulldogs four turnovers, throwing two
interceptions and also coughing up the fum-

ble on the critical third-quarter strip.


The guy came from behind and made a
nice play, Calmeyn said. Ive got to protect the ball better in the red zone.
Calmeyn was but one component of a
CSM offense that gained a total of 518
yards. Sophomore running back Keenan
Smith rushed for 151 yards on 16 carries,
and sophomore slot receiver Ramiah
Marshall tabbed eight catches for 97 yards
and three touchdowns.

As break up no-hitter in eighth inning, top Red Sox in ninth
By Janie McCauley

OAKLAND Even before the video


review, Eduardo Rodriguez realized speedy
Marcus Semien was safe at first base.
Rodriguezs no-hit bid for the Boston Red
Sox was broken up after a replay reversal
with two outs in the eighth inning, and
Khris Davis hit a game-ending double in the
ninth that sent the As to a 1-0 victory
Sunday.

As 1, Red Sox 0
offered Rodriguez a hug after he came off the
field and these words: You did the best job

Rodriguez recalled.
Trying to complete Bostons first no-hitter in eight years, Rodriguez stuck out his
right leg to knock down Semiens grounder
in the eighth. The left-hander had to search
for the ball in the dirt on the mound before
scooping it up and making a quick throw to
first.

Semien initially was ruled out by umpire


Laz Diaz. As manager Bob Melvin challenged the call, which was overturned after a
brief review that lasted approximately 19
seconds.
Replays clearly showed Semien was safe,
just as Rodriguez knew they would. And the
infield single ended his run at a no-hitter in
frustrating fashion.

Caryotakis off to fast start for Menlo-Atherton water polo


By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

There are plenty of new faces around the


swimming pool at Menlo-Atherton, including first-year boys water polo head coach
Brandon Johnson.
A former head coach at Palo Alto,
Johnson has spent the offseason tooling
together a nearly brand new Bears lineup
from the one that reached the Central Coast
Section Division I semifinals last year.

The new-look Bears


opened the season over
the weekend, taking
fourth place at the
Schmitt Water Polo
Tournament
at
Bellarmine High School.
M-A posted a 2-2 record,
winning its first two
Nik Caryotakis games of the season over
St. Marys-Stockton and
Clovis before falling to powerhouse out-of-

towners Granite Bay and Buchanan-Clovis.


M-A junior 2-meter defender Nik Caryotakis
led the attack, scoring 12 goals over the four
games, including six goals in the seasonopening win over St. Marys 10-9 in overtime. It was an emotional victory to salvage
after letting an early 3-0 lead slip away.
Im just happy that the guys were able to
grind it out, Johnson said. Blowing a 3-0
lead, it was good to see the guys handle the
adversity and continue to grind it out.
The Bears went to sudden-death overtime

after St. Marys scored an equalizer with 20


seconds remaining in standard OT. Two minutes into sudden death, M-A worked the ball
up top to Caryotakis, who was left alone to
pound in a skip shot to end it.
Even with two losses later in the tournament, M-As defense improved as the tourney
progressed. After a 7-5 win over Clovis, M-A
junior goalkeeper Noah Smith allowed just
13 goals through the two losses a 6-2 loss

Sangha earns medalist honors in Caada debut SATURDAYLocal roundup


By Terry Bernal

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Caada College womens golf head coach


Rick Velasquez was thrilled when four-time
Peninsula Athletic League champion Aman
Sangha notified him she wanted to play for
the Colts this season.
With Velasquez graduating his entire team
from last season, the 11th-year coach
worked into the weeks leading up to the
start of the season to fill out an all-freshman roster, including Lilibeth Harden,
Paige Flores, Alesia Wiley, Mimi Zhang and
Katrina Diaz.
In July though, Velasquez added the gem of
the squad in Sangha. Hed never seen her
play during her four standout seasons at San
Mateo High School, but knew of her dominance by word of mouth. Then over the summer, he finally witnessed her play at an
American Junior Golf competition at Ruby
Hills Country Club in Livermore and was
immediately impressed with her demeanor
and consistency.
When I watched her play in the junior

tournament I was really


amazed at what a talented
player
she
was,
Velasquez said.
Sangha debuted as
Caadas No. 1-ranked
player showing that
demeanor and consistency last Thursday, leading
Aman Sangha the Colts to a secondplace finish in their first
Central Valley Conference four-team match
at Fresno City Colleges home course of Fig
Garden Golf Club.
Sangha earned medalist honors shooting
a 75, despite her best individual hole being
her one-and-only birdie of the match.
According to Velasquez, Sangha was consistent to the fairway, but had trouble closing
by missing several putts.
I dont think she was really pleased about
putting, Velasquez said.
Reedley College won the team format
shooting a 340; CSM took second with a
359; Fresno City took third with a 362; and
West Hills did not finish.

t o p Fres n o Ci t y.
As a team [Fresno City] had a little better
scoring but the 75 really helped us get a
little a bit of lead going, Velasquez said.
Caadas No. 2 Harden and No. 4 Wiley
each shot 91. No. 3 Flores shot 102.
We kind of put this team together over
the past three or four weeks so we havent
been together too long, Velasquez said.
So we were pleased we finished second.
The match is the first of 12 CVC showdowns this season, all of which are the same
four-team format. Caada does not play any
dual matches.
Last year the Colts settled for second
place after winning five consecutive CVC
titles, including a pair of Northern
California championships in 2013 and 14.
In 2014, Caada went undefeated until its
final match in the state finals.
Next up, Caada travels to Pacific Grove
Municipal Golf Links on Tuesday for its second league match.

Caryotakis and Smith are the only two

with 27 touchdowns and eight interceptions.


The move came a day after the Bengals

Juniors work is done, now he Redskins Cavanaugh is an


needs to think about his health accomplished QB whisperer

ale Earnhardt Jr., your work is done. Long


ago, you escaped the enormous shadow of
your father.
Lately, youve ensured an important legacy all
your own by raising a caution flag on head injuries
in NASCAR.
Now, its time to seriously consider walking
away.
For good.
Earnhardt is already sitting out the rest of 2016
to deal with the lingering effects of yet another
concussion, but he made it clear that he hopes to
be back behind the wheel next February for the
season-opening Daytona 500.
My heart is there to continue, he said Sunday at
Darlington Raceway. And
if my doctor says that Im
physically able to continue,
then thats an easier decision for me to make. Its
not something that I think
about. Were trying to focus
on just getting well and getting normal.
Theres no doubt that
NASCAR will be rooting for
his recovery, given the
sports dwindling television
ratings and ever-increasing
number of empty seats at the tracks.
Earnhardt remains the sports most popular driver, and to have him walk away would be a huge
blow given the reluctance of the fan base to
embrace a new generation of stars.
But Junior cant worry about any of that.
Hes got bigger issues to consider.
Earnhardt should give a hard look at all those
former giants of the NFL whose brains were addled
by one brutal hit after another, who died far too
young or lived out their years in the cruel isolation
of dementia.
No one knows for sure what another hard crash
would do to Earnhardts brain.
He might be fine. He might not be.
There are different levels of concussion. There
are individual differences. The age the concussion
occurs plays a part, said Dr. Katherine Dec, a professor at the Virginia Commonwealth University
School of Medicine who specializes in sportsrelated concussions.
Wed all love to have an easy answer, she
added. Thats what everyone wants to know,
something that makes the decision kind of black
and white. But the brain is a miraculous thing.
There are still a lot of things we dont know.
We know that Earnhardt, at the very least, had
two concussions about six weeks apart in 2012,
which was the wakeup call that everyone in
NASCAR needed to address an issue that had long

PAUL
NEWBERRY

been swept under the rug. Junior sat out two races
that year and sought out concussion experts to get
the lowdown on potential problems down the road.
He became the most vocal advocate for brain
safety, prompting NASCAR to mandate that all
national series drivers undergo preseason neurocognitive baseline testing as part of a comprehensive concussion program. He also joined a
growing list of athletes by saying he would donate
his brain to science after his death, so it can be
studied for signs of Chronic Traumatic
Encephalopathy.
That will go down as Earnhardts most lasting
impact on the sport, far more important than his
two Daytona 500 victories or those other 24 career
wins, or even the impressive feat of making a
name for himself in a sport still dominated by the
towering presence of his late father, a seven-time
Cup champion.
Junior certainly sent the right message again
when he stepped out of the car after another hard
crash at Michigan this summer. He actually managed to compete in the next three races before the
concussion symptoms cropped up again. He had
missed six races before announcing Friday he was
done for the year, meaning hell miss the final 18
events of 2016.
Dr. Raj K. Narayan, the head of neurosurgery at
North Shore University Hospital in Manhasset,
New York, and LIJ Medical Center in New Hyde
Park, New York, said its impossible for those on
the outside to know exactly what Earnhardt is
going through.
But there are some common-sense aspects that
should be taken into account when dealing with
any head injury.
The science has not gotten to the point yet
where we can accurately qualify the amount of brain
damage that already occurred, except to say that the
more times you get injured and the more injuries
you have, it makes total sense that it is likely to
affect you more, he said. I think its quite clear
that repeated, multiple injuries increase your risk
of becoming demented with the passage of time.
Of course, it was probably a lot easier for
Earnhardt to make peace with sitting out the rest of
the year than it would be for him to call it a career,
given his potential if healthy to race at a
high level for several more seasons. He had three
victories in 2015, four the previous year. While
Earnhardt has never won a season championship,
hes been a perennial Chase contender.
Lets just hope when Earnhardt sits down with
his doctors, when he talks this over with his family and closest friends, he errs on the side of caution.
Hes already done so much for the sport.
Hes certainly made his daddy proud.
He deserves to live a long, healthy life.

the first wild card was reduced to 1 1/2
games.
Its fair to say we have to get some guys
going, Bochy said.
Each team had chances earlier in extra
innings. Cubs closer Aroldis Chapman
worked two scoreless innings, striking out
Brandon Belt on a 102 mph fastball with
two on to end the 11th.
The Giants Cory Gearrin struck out
Russell looking on a questionable call with
a runner on second to end the 10th.
The Giants appeared on their way to the
win in regulation despite managing two
hits thanks to seven strong innings from
Cueto and a perfectly executed suicide
squeeze.
Eduardo Nunez doubled in the fifth, stole
third then broke for home as Ehire Adrianza
put down a soft bunt in front of the mound
that forced John Lackey to throw to first and
snapped a 1-all tie.

THE DAILY JOURNAL

Oakland snapped a five-game losing streak


overall, and a nine-game skid to Boston.
Ryan Madson (5-4) pitched the ninth for
the win.
Oakland has not been held without a hit
since four Orioles pitchers turned the trick on
July 13, 1991 the longest active streak in
the majors.
Boston right-hander Rick Porcello carried
a bid for a perfect game into the sixth inning
of an 11-2 victory Saturday. Jake Smolinski
broke that one up with a double.
Jon Lester tossed the most recent no-hitter
for the Red Sox on May 19, 2008, against
Kansas City.
Ortiz received a standing ovation before
his initial at-bat, when he struck out swinging to end the first.
He went 0 for 2 with two strikeouts and two
walks after going 5 for 6 with five RBIs in
the first two games of the series.
Itd be nice if he took a day off, Melvin
joked before the game. Hes performing as
well as he ever has.

For the upcoming interleague series at San


Diego, Big Papi will be available to pinch
hit but Farrell has no plans to use him on
defense.
After Boston outscored Oakland 27-4 over
the previous two games, neither team could
capitalize Sunday until the very end.
The Red Sox had scored at least 11 runs in
all five previous meetings this season.
Oaklands first win in six tries against the
Red Sox meant the As avoided going winless
for the fourth time against an AL team in one
season. They went 0-11 against Baltimore in
1978, 0-7 versus Cleveland in 1995 and 0-6
when facing the Indians in 1994.
As starter Kendall Graveman struck out
seven in 6 1/3 sharp innings.
You know theyre going to put some good
swings on you and today a couple of balls
were hit hard right at people, and that helped
us, he said.
Dustin Pedroia has an 11-game hitting
streak and has hit in 20 straight against the
As.

Cueto allowed a run and struck out five.


I was putting the pitches where I wanted
to, he said.
In his first start since Aug. 14 because of
a shoulder strain, Lackey trailed 1-0 after 3
1/2 innings despite not allowing a hit.
Heyward was charged with a two-base
error in the second when he couldnt make a
running catch of Hunter Pences fly to rightcenter. Pence scored the unearned run on
Nunezs groundout.
After the Cubs tied it when Heywards single scored Rizzo in the fourth, the Giants
got their first hit an inning later on Nunezs
one-out liner to the gap.
Lackey, on a pitch count, was lifted after
76 pitches, allowed one earned run and one
hit.
That was more than I expected, honestly, Maddon said.

Monday at Colorado. Both ended up pinchhitting.

Trainers room
Bochy didnt start SS Brandon Crawford
and LF Angel Pagan with a day game

Scary moment
Giants 1B Brandon Belt stayed in after
taking Rob Zastryznys 87 mph fastball of
his helmet in the seventh. Belt stayed
upright as his helmet flew off, then walked
to first after being looked at by the trainer.
Belt said he was doing OK after undergoing
concussion protocol.

Nathan debut
RHP Joe Nathan, making his first appearance with San Francisco since the 2003
playoffs, struck out Kris Bryant in a perfect
12th.
Impressive outing. He did a great job,
Bochy said.

Up next
Matt Moore (9-10, 3.88 ERA) flew early
to Denver and starts Monday against
Rockies RHP Chad Bettis (11-7, 5.17).

matches at the hard-court tournament, dropping only 20 games. But Pouille, a 22-yearold with flashy strokes, presented a much
greater challenge in the fourth round, pushing Nadal to the limit through entertaining,
tense and intense exchanges.
Every point was great, Pouille said.
This was Pouilles third career victory in a
five-setter; all have come in his past three
matches.
Since losing in last years French Open
quarterfinals, Nadal has failed to make it
beyond the fourth round at a major. And after
winning at least one Grand Slam title each
year for a decade, hes now gone two full
seasons without one.

CAMBRIDGE, Ontario Caroline


Masson broke out of a star-filled pack Sunday
to win the LPGA Manulife Classic for her first
tour title.
The 27-year-old German player rebounded
from an opening double bogey to make nine
birdies in a 5-under 67. She beat third-round
leader Mi Hyang Lee, Minjee Lee and Solheim
Cup teammate Karine Icher by a stroke, finishing at 16-under 272 at Whistle Bear.
Its hard to believe. It really is, Masson
said. Obviously, I was in a good position
coming into today, and I was thinking, Well,
if I can shoot a really good round, I might
have a chance. But I was totally not expecting it.
Masson joined Anna Nordqvist and
Brittany Lang as the only players over 23
years old to win in the first 24 events this season and also joined Nordqvist as the only
European winners. She was showered in beer
in celebration on the 18th green.
I think they picked beer because Im
German. They figured I could take it, Masson
said. I appreciate the girls coming out and
congratulating. I prefer the beer over the
water, I think.
Mi Hyang Lee had a 71, Minjee Lee shot
68, and Icher 66.
She was making a lot of birdies, Minjee
Lee said about playing partner Masson I
knew it was going to be pretty close. She
played great.
Mi Hyang Lee parred the final two holes to

miss a chance for a playoff.


Ariya Jutanugarn tied
for fifth at 14 under in her
bid to win three straight
events for the second time
this season. The secondranked Jutanugarn made
two late bogeys in a 70.
Masson didnt make a
par
until the seventh hole,
Caroline
following the double
Masson
bogey with three straight
birdies, a bogey on No. 5 and a birdied on the
sixth. The former Oklahoma State player had
four straight birdies on Nos. 9-12, bogeyed
the par-4 13th and birdied the par-5 16th. She
birdied all four par 5s.
I got off to a really bad start, Masson
said. I doubled the first hole and from then
on just kind of, well, Theres no pressure.
You dont have to feel any pressure to win or
do anything. Just keep making birdies. And
thats what I did all day. I tried to stay relaxed
out there, enjoy it.
Its such a beautiful day and such a beautiful golf course. I just really tried to have a
good time with my caddie, Danny (Sharp). Its
unbelievable that it really worked out in the
end.
Projected to jump from 87th to 44th in the
world, shes playing an event in Germany
next week.
Im going home to Germany tonight,
hopefully, if I catch my flight, Masson said.
Top-ranked Lydia Ko and 2015 winner
Suzann Pettersen also were 14 under.

Masson wins Manulife Classic


to capture her first LPGA title

By Howard Fendrich
NEW YORK Rafael Nadal kept making
a stand, kept coming back, kept showing he
would not depart quietly from this U.S.
Open. Facing a much younger, much-lessaccomplished opponent, Nadal twice erased
a set deficit. Then he staved off a trio of
match points.
And then, more than 4 hours into the
toughest test hes put his left wrist through
since returning from injury, Nadal faltered.
He missed a short forehand, pushing it into
the net. Nadal knew what hed done and covered his eyes with both hands. One point
later, the match was over.
Nadal was upset in the U.S. Opens fourth
round by 24th-seeded Lucas Pouille of
France 6-1, 2-6, 6-4, 3-6, 7-6 (6) on
Sunday, prolonging the 14-time Grand Slam
title winners quarterfinal drought at major
tournaments.
There were things I could do better. Had
the right attitude. I (fought) right up to the
last ball, said the No. 4-seeded Nadal, a
two-time champion at Flushing Meadows.
But I need something else. I need something more that was not there today.

for Modesto running back Jay
Green. The true freshman who
ran for 1,420 yards at Beyer High
School-Modesto just a couple miles
away from the Modesto JC campus
couldnt have dreamed up a better
collegiate debut, rushing for a
game-high 178 yards and two
touchdowns. He added six catches
for 46 yards.
We were the underdogs and we
hit them in their mouths; I think
that surprised them, Green said.
All respect to San Mateo though.
Theyre a great team.
Modesto got off to a fast start,
scoring 28 points in the first half.
After forcing CSM to punt away the
games opening position, it took
Green and company less than two
minutes to drive 79 yards on seven
plays to get on the board, capped
by the freshmans 6-yard bounce off
left tackle for a score to go up 7-0.
After CSM tied it with 5:12
remaining in the first quarter on a
nice 4-yard option pass to Marshall
for a touchdown, Modesto scored
three consecutive times to build a
28-7 lead by late in the first half,
adapting to a Bulldogs defense that
was sealing off the middle fairly
consistently. So, Modesto countered simply by spreading their
looks to the outside with a flurry of
sweeps, pitches and screen passes.
The result was Modesto consistently breaking tackles to top CSM
in total offensive yards with 542.
They came out fast, as usual,
with a high-tempo offense, CSM
defensive coordinator Tim Tulloch
know that I did play and that I probably experienced what theyre going
through and it was easier to relate
some situations that I had.
Its that same experience that
makes Cavanaugh qualified to help
Cousins prove he deserves a longterm deal, keep McCoy prepared on a
moments notice and coach up
Sudfeld for the years ahead.

said. It was tough for our guys initially.


CSM middle linebacker Daniel
Lavulo was a bright spot as one of
the few starting sophomores on the
defensive unit, a presence Tulloch
called the heart and soul of the
Bulldogs defense. Converting from
outside linebacker, where he played
as a freshman, Lavulo played three
varsity seasons at Serra as a defensive end. This year marks the first
time hes played middle linebacker
since his Pop Warner days with the
West Bay Rams.
Lavulo and freshman middle linebacker Dorrzel Hicks were two of
CSMs most efficient tacklers;
Hicks posted a game-high 12 tackles while Lavulo totaled nine.
We gave it all we had in the second half but we didnt come out in
the first, Lavulo said.
It was the tandems ability to consistently penetrate into the backfield the two combined for 4
tackles for losses that kept the
Bulldogs in the game after the early
troubles. Tulloch said the defense
improved by leaps and bounds in
the second half.
They did, Tulloch said. What I
saw was we got better every quarter
and we got better very series.
Down three touchdowns, CSM
chipped away at the lead by tallying
the final score of the first half when
Calmeyn connected with freshman
Line Latu for a 14-yard pass on a
play-action timing pattern that saw
Latu make a nice leaping catch in
the corner of the end zone, keeping
his feet inbounds to cut the lead to
28-14.
Then after the CSM defense came
up with a stop on Modestos opening play of the second half, the
Bulldogs pushed downfield for a

seven-play scoring drive. Smith


had a big 20-yard gain on fourthand-1 to sustain the drive and thrust
his rushing total over 100 yards.
Two plays later, Calmeyn hit
Marshall for a 6-yard play-action
pass to draw to within one score at
28-21.
The Bulldogs incurred a 15-yard
unsportsmanlike conduct penalty
for the touchdown celebration that
was enforced on the ensuing kickoff. It proved costly as Modesto
returned the ball to the CSM 39yard line. It took the Pirates nine
plays to reach the end zone, but
they finally did on fourth-and-8
from the 9-yard line on a keeper by
quarterback Shawn Munoz to up the
lead to 31-21.
Less than a minute later, after
CSM drove the ball into the red
zone on three plays, the pivotal
fumble return all but sealed the win
for the Pirates.
I felt we moved the ball well
tonight, Calmeyn said. We just
have to do better in the red zone.
Well learn from our mistakes and
try to do better next week.
CSM did have one last-gasp effort
late in the fourth quarter when
Calmeyn hit Marshall for a 10-yard
touchdown pass to cut the lead to
37-27. Needing a two-point conversion to make it a one-score game
with 5:29 remaining, the Bulldogs
ran a rollout option that resulted in
a broken play with Calmeyn heaving unsuccessfully into the back of
the end zone for a failed attempt.
On paper, Modesto is as good as
it gets in terms of non-conference
opponents for CSM. The Bulldogs
open at home Saturday against No.
20 Sierra at 1 p.m. From there, they
play No. 19 Fresno, No. 15 Butte
and No. 11 American River.

Cavanaugh can pull from his time as


a New England Patriots rookie and
young starter and as Joe Montanas
backup.
Cousins developed into a leader as
the franchise quarterback at 28, and
his ascent with a career year is thanks
in part to Cavanaughs tutelage.
Hes helped simplify the game for
me coaching me through my reads

and trying to reduce the amount of


clutter in my head as I read a defense,
Cousins said.
McCoy didnt start until a meaningless Week 17 game at Dallas
last season, but he said
Cavanaugh pushed him to stay
sharp. Without practice snaps,
McCoy leaned on Cavanaugh for
details and philosophy.

Dont Breathe tops box office again


By Jake Coyle
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK The horror


thriller Dont Breathe topped
the box office for the second
straight week, while several new
releases struggled to find traction
over a typically sleepy Labor Day
weekend at North American movie
theaters.
The Sony Screen Gems release
made an estimated $15.7 million
in its second weekend, according
to studio estimates Sunday. The Rrated Dont Breathe, about an
ill-considered home invasion of a
blind man, is on pace to make
$19.4 million over the four-day
holiday weekend. Produced for just
$10 million, the film has made
$51.1 million in total.

Its success spelled doom for the


other horror film trying to gain a
foothold: Morgan, a low-budget
science-fiction thriller directed by
Ridley Scotts son, Luke Scott.
Opening on more than 2, 000
screens, it bombed with just $2
million.
Also torpedoed was the Robert
De Niro-Edgar Ramirez boxing
drama Hands of Stone, about
Panamanian boxer Roberto Duran.
It made just $1.3 million while
expanding to 2, 011 theaters,
marking the latest in a string of
disappointments
for
the
Weinstein Co.
The DreamWorks drama The
Light Between the Oceans, starring Michael Fassbender and
Alicia Vikander, debuted with a

French uproar creates opportunity for Israeli burkini makers


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

HOD HASHARON, Israel


Frances burkini controversy is
boosting the bottom line for
Israeli makers of modest womens
swimwear.
The country, home to large populations of conservative Jewish
and Muslim women, has cultivated
a local industry of modest swimsuits, and the full-body outfits that
have caused uproar in France have
been a common sight on Israeli
beaches for several years.
Marci Rapp was among the first
to enter the industry after she
moved to Jerusalem from Toronto
in 2008. The warm Mediterranean
climate presented a fashion challenge because she keeps her arms

and legs covered, in keeping with


Jewish rules of modesty.
I had nothing to wear, she
said. I couldnt find something
that was suitable for me to feel
comfortable when I was more covered.
Rapp started the MarSea Modest
swimwear company, which sells
dresses, shorts, shirts and head
coverings made of lightweight,
chlorine-resistant Italian fabric,
sewn in Tel Aviv. Business has
grown at least 10 percent a year
since she started, she said, in part
due to her energetic sales tactics
such as handing out flyers to
women wearing drenched long
skirts at the beach.
Only a few of her clients are
Muslim, Rapp says, because they

require
more
conservative
swimwear than she offers. The
burkini, coined by an AustralianLebanese designer about a decade
ago, covers the head, torso and
limbs with lightweight swim fabric. Rapps swimsuits do not
include hoods, which most observant Muslim women prefer, and
many of her styles do not reach to
the wrists and ankles.
Nevertheless, Rapp said the
burkini controversy has drawn
attention to her company, which
she runs out of her Jerusalem living room, and has bumped her
sales by a few percentage points,
though she declined to provide
sales figures. Her swimsuits sell
for about $100.
Rapp said she was baffled by the

decision of several French towns to


ban full-body swimwear. The ban
was later overturned by Frances top
court, the Council of State. As a
result, the ban is likely to be lifted
across France, but only once a legal
challenge is brought to the local
courts of each of the 30 or so
French municipalities affected.
What does a woman do in
France who wants to cover up for
sun protection or who wants to
cover up some scarring, or if she
is a little overweight and she doesnt want to wear a bikini? she
asked. It doesnt make any sense
that they are banning a specific
type of modest swimwear. Its very
racist to me.
Itay Yaacov, a journalist at the
fashion site Xnet, estimated that

over the last decade, about a dozen


Israeli companies have begun
making modest swimwear. The
outfits have become a global
trend, he added, saying even secular women have begun pairing
long sleeved shirts with bikini
bottoms. Most Israeli companies
are small and cater to the local
market, he said.
But some have greater reach. Anat
Yahav started the SunWay company
to make UV-protective clothing for
children in 1998 with headquarters
north of Tel Aviv. Then, she said,
Muslim customers asked her to
make an adult model with long
sleeves, legs and hoods. Finally,
Jewish women chimed in and
requested short-sleeved and threequarter length dresses and pants.

Obamas legacy: Quiet but big changes in energy


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

HANGZHOU, China Mostly


unnoticed amid the political brawl
over climate change, the United
States has undergone a quiet transformation in how and where it gets
its energy during Barack Obamas
presidency, slicing the nations
output of polluting gases that are
warming Earth.
As politicians tangled in the
U.S. and on the world stage, the
U. S. slowly but surely moved
away from emissions-spewing
coal and toward cleaner fuels like
natural gas, nuclear, wind and
solar. The shift has put the U.S.
closer to achieving the goal
Obama set to cut emissions by
more than a quarter over the next
15 years, but experts say it is
nowhere near enough to prevent
the worst effects of global warming.
The overlooked changes took
center stage Saturday in China.
Obama and Chinese President Xi
Jinping entered the worlds two
worst polluters into a historic
agreement to ratchet down heattrapping pollution. Obama hailed
the investments that we made to
allow for incredible innovation in
clean energy.

tistics show jolts in where


America gets its volts:
In 2008, 48 percent of
Americas electricity came from
coal, the dirtiest power source;
now its about 30 percent. Thats
less than the combined U.S. output of carbon-free nuclear and
renewable energy.
There are now more than three
solar power jobs in the U.S. for
every job mining coal.
In just the first five months of
2016, more solar power was generated than 2006 through 2012.
In 2008, the U.S. imported
about two-thirds of its oil, and
politicians spoke longingly of
energy
independence.
Now,
America imports less than half its
oil.
U.S. emissions of carbon dioxide the main greenhouse gas
are down more than 10 percent,
and this year is on pace to be the
lowest in about a quarter-century.
There were gigantic changes
happening in the energy world,
gigantic tectonic changes, said
Peter Fox-Penner of the Boston
University
Institute
for
Sustainable Energy. Its a sea
change. There is no question.
Facing steep obstacles in
Congress, Obama never aggressively pursued new emissions-

curbing legislation,
aside
from a halfhearted attempt
at cap-and-trade
in his first term
that was politically disastrous
for Democrats.
he
Barack Obama Instead,
relied on executive authority and regulations at
home while largely going above
lawmakers heads by focusing on
brokering global deals to curb carbon and other greenhouse gases.
So how much credit does Obama
deserve? And how much was completely outside his control? That
debate is playing out in Obamas
final months in office, as the president tries to go out with a bang on
climate and the environment.
Jack Gerard, president of the
American Petroleum Institute, the
oil and gas lobby, pointed out that
Obama pitched his sweeping pollution limits on coal-fired power
plants as the main driver of lower
future emissions but the courts
have put those rules indefinitely
on hold. Meanwhile, emissions
have fallen due to a dramatic
increase in cleaner-burning natural gas, which Obama was slow to
try to regulate.

We are leading the world in carbon reductions today, and its driven primarily by cleaner-burning,
affordable natural gas that was
brought to you by innovation and
technological advances in the oil
and natural gas industry, Gerard
said.
But Brian Deese, Obamas senior
adviser, said the seeds of the fracking technology that enabled the
natural gas revolution were found in
federal Energy Department research
conducted in the 1970s. He noted
that the people who warned
Obamas policies like his Clean
Power Plan emissions limits
would be disastrous are the same
people now celebrating the natural
gas revolution.
You cant on the one hand argue
that the Clean Power Plan is an
overarching regulation thats
going to impose all these costs,
enforce all these changes in the
industry, and on the other hand
argue that change is happening
independent of what government is
doing and therefore these regulations are meaningless, Deese said.
The advent of fracking, or
hydraulic fracturing, produced
much more natural gas, which
became much cheaper and elbowed
out coal as Americas fuel of
choice. That has surprised all sorts

of experts.
In 2000, Dana Fisher, director
of the University of Marylands
Program for Society and the
Environment, predicted the U.S.
was unlikely to wean itself off
coal because it was cheap and
plentiful. And John Reilly of
MITs Joint Program on the
Science and Policy of Global
Change, predicted heat-trapping
gas emissions would grow.
Both admit they were wrong,
with an embarrassed Reilly calling the subsequent decline a dramatic turnaround from what everyone has expected.
Obama had little to do with the
fracking boom, except to not get
in the way with regulations. But
Obama pushed through 2009s
stimulus package that goosed
spending and research in renewables, like solar and wind. His
administration also increased fuel
mileage requirements for cars and
ratcheted up appliance and building energy efficiency standards.
His war is against fossil fuels,
and natural gas is a fossil fuel,
said Sen. Jim Inhofe, R-Okla., the
Senates most prominent climate
change doubter. You cant separate that out and say its somehow
different than other fossil fuels.
Its not.

Pine said prior to the 2015 vote.


Thursday, Pine said video visits
should complement in-person visits and not replace them.
Family contact is critical for
maintaining relationships and
improves outcomes, Pine said.
He doesnt agree that the county
should oppose the legislation.
At least 11 counties in
California have eliminated, plan
to eliminate or severely restrict
in-person visitation in at least
one of their jails.

Since the implementation of


public safety realignment in
California, more people are serving time in county jails and for
longer periods of time, according
to the Ella Baker Center for Human
Rights, a co-sponsor of the bill.
It is opposed by the California
State Sheriffs Association, the
California State Association of
Counties and the Urban Counties
of California.
The Legislature has spent a
great deal of time grappling with

this issue of humane treatment of


people in California jails. We
have approved funding to reduce
overcrowding, improve educational and rehabilitative services and
reduce recidivism. We would be
going backwards to now eliminate
a basic human right in-person
visitation. Maintaining familial
relationships is key to their success once released, Mitchell
wrote in a statement.
A 2014 Department of Justice
report found that when a person is

incarcerated, even for a short period of time, family contact and inperson visits are crucial to maintaining family stability, reducing
disciplinary infractions and violence, reducing recidivism and
increasing the chances of obtaining employment post-release,
according to the Ella Baker Center
for Human Rights.
Maltbie will discuss the countys opposition to the bill at the
Board of Supervisors meeting,

Officers inside the jail ran to the
lobby, where a lieutenant shot at
Vang, who returned fire, Botti
said. No one was hit.
Officers tried to subdue Vang
with a stun gun, but he would not
give up and ran to the hallway of
the jail records area, authorities

said. When confronted by sheriffs


deputies and a Fresno police officer, Vang dropped his weapon and
told authorities he wanted to be
arrested, Botti said.
The injured officers were dragged
out of the lobby and taken to the
hospital to undergo surgery. Vang
was taken to the hospital for

minor scrapes and cuts. Christy


Rodriguez told the Fresno Bee
newspaper that she and a woman
with a walker hid in the bathroom
after they heard the gunshots.
Moments later, an officer yelled at
them to get out of the building.
This is crazy. This isnt supposed
to happen, Rodriguez said.

Scanlan, who has 10 years of


experience, and Davila, an 18year veteran, approached Vang
after he tried to cut to the front of
the visitors line and began pacing near a secure area of the jail.

him to sit down when shots rang

Atherton high schools; as well as middle schools in the towns. These
school-day-only routes are part of the
agencys regular assessment to make
commuting more convenient for passengers, according to SamTrans. They
also enable parents to avoid their typical drop-off during peak commute
hours.
San Carlos Mayor Cameron Johnson
recently took an inaugural ride on one
of the new routes and said he was
thrilled to see several dozen students
onboard just two days into the
Carlmont High School year. Johnson,
who works with local school districts
and is on the San Mateo County
Transportation Authority board, said
he was encouraged to get involved
after being approached by local parent
advocates and noted the benefits of the
new routes.
It reduces traffic congestion; for
every kid thats on the bus, thats a car
thats not on the road, Johnson said.
And it takes stress off of families
because parents dont have to take
their kids to school. So it makes mornings a little less stressful and it gives
kids a sense of independence. We think
its a huge win for students, for parents
and for the community as a whole.

DUCK
Continued from page 1
companys programs focusing on
early education were downloaded 3 million times in the first two days since
teaming up with Khan Academy. In all,
the 21 applications offered by the
company have been downloaded
roughly 13 million times.
Beyond the expanded reach, Hu
Flexer said she believes the new
opportunity will allow the company to
improve services such as adding new
languages to the applications.
Hu Flexer started the company with
her husband Michael Flexer after
searching the education application
marketplace for their daughters and
finding themselves underwhelmed.
The company grew in size and notoriety over the years, gaining recognition from organizations such as the
Parents Choice Foundation and
Childrens Technology Review for
their creative approach to teaching.

Meredith Park, a mother of three kids


in San Carlos schools and a member of
their Parent Teacher Association who
worked on its Transportation and
Safety Committee, said shes thrilled
theyve reinstated route 61. Two of her
middle-school kids ride the bus and she
noted it could have long-lasting
impacts by helping to promote selfsufficiency as well as promoting a new
generation of commuters who choose
public transportation.
My kids love it, Park said. They
love being able to be independent and
Im hearing that from a lot of parents,
and theres so many dual-working families in the Bay Area in general. Our
children are responsible enough and
mature enough to be able to manage
their own way home and I think this is
going to be a great force for the longterm public transit ridership.
With local schools seeking to
accommodate more students, Park
noted traffic frequently directs what
locations districts consider expanding
in and offering bus service is a way to
curb congestion.
SamTrans Board Member Charles
Stone, who also serves as Belmonts
vice mayor, agreed the local transit
agency could assist as schools try to
accommodate more and more students.
As we see an increase in enrollment, were going to see more youth
riders seeking to take the bus. And
anything SamTrans can do to help disrupt traffic, I think is great, Stone

said.
With the new routes in effect,
SamTrans has since tweaked several
schedules for San Carlos-Belmont
routes 60 and 61, as well as Half Moon
Bays route 18 to provide students with
ample time to get from their bus stop
to their campuses, according to
SamTrans.
Zoe Kersteen-Tucker, chair of the
SamTrans board and a coastside resident, said she was thrilled to see the
new Half Moon Bay route is already
heavily used and helping to relieve
traffic on the coasts sole north-tosouth connector, Highway 1.
In creating successful routes,
Kersteen-Tucker said being flexible in
adjusting times and working with local
officials to meet demands is key.
Bell times change and the number
of students who want to ride the bus
changes, so we have to be really nimble from year to year when we try to
address some of these communities
needs, Kersteen-Tucker said, emphasizing the routes are open to the public
at large. Im really proud that
SamTrans can offer this service and has
worked so diligently with the community to address local needs and we really look forward to doing that in the
future to the best of our ability.

Under the most recent development,


the companys nine-member team is
set to grow, as the company is looking
to hire engineers and creative talents,
said Hu Flexer, but Duck Duck Moose
intends to keep its headquarters in San
Mateo rather than joining Khan
Academy in Mountain View.
Many of the applications are
designed to help children as young as 2
learn mathematics and language lessons by offering them a chance to journey through stories built around songs
or other creative, open-ended ideas.
Research shows early education can
be a valuable asset toward establishing
the building blocks for academic success, but Duck Duck Moose will be the
first early learning initiative offered
through the Khan Academy, said Hu
Flexer, marking another notable
accomplishment for the company.
Weve always been focused on making a big impact on kids and education
and with this opportunity we will be
able to reach so many more, she said.
Sal Khan, in a prepared statement,
expressed his appreciation for the
opportunity to add the vital lessons

offered in early education to his initiatives expansive catalog.


Were excited to reach children earlier in their lives and help millions of
kids around the world with basic reading and math, he said. Preschool
learning is a natural next step for Khan
Academy and fits perfectly into our
mission to provide a free, world-class
education for anyone, anywhere.
Hu Flexer said she is also ready to
remove the price tag from the companys product, as the roughly $2 fee for
downloads will be washed away and
Duck Duck Moose will be underwritten
instead by philanthropic donations
and community support.
She did note though there is an
adjustment that comes along with the
company transitioning from an interest in generating revenue to sharing a
product for free.
Obviously it is an untraditional
path to go from a for-profit to nonprofit, she said. But in our world of
education and our mission to learn and
be creative, we think this is a natural
fit.

FUTURE
Continued from page 4
and circulation issues are likely to be on
the top of residents concerns.
Tuesdays meeting will also serve as an
opportunity for those just tuning in to the
years-long planning process. A brief
overview of each document will kick off
staffs presentation and de Melo said, its
always good to educate folks that arent in
the planning world as to what these documents are.
The General Plan covers the entire city
and would update Belmonts outdated 1982
plan by envisioning the future through

NEWS
2035. In 20 years, it projects an additional 4,100 residents will join for a population of 30,500 and a growth of 4,800 new
jobs, totaling 13,400 positions, according to the city.
The Belmont Village Specific Plan
focuses on an area roughly bordering the
Ralston Avenue and El Camino Real intersection where officials hope to promote
the creation of a more centralized downtown. It includes zoning to encourage
denser housing, multi-modal transportation circulation and creating a village
center.
It also predicts an additional 364,800
square feet of new non-residential space
for a total of nearly 1 million square feet
of non-residential space, according to the
city.

THE DAILY JOURNAL

The state urges local governments assist


in meeting greenhouse gas reduction
goals prompting many California cities
to create Climate Action Plans. Similar to
other neighboring communities, Belmont
is in the process of outlining emissions
reduction targets and strategies to achieve
those goals.
After gathering public feedback during
the scoping session and via written comment accepted through October, staff as
well as consultants will prepare a draft
environmental impact report. Its release
is expected later this year, after which the
public will have 45 days to comment
before a final report is prepared. Hearings
on the final report will likely be held during the first quarter of 2017, de Melo said.
Opportunities for public input will also

continue as the city finalizes the various


planning documents themselves.
Vice Mayor Charles Stone said initiating the environmental review process is
an important step in preparing for the
future.
I think its a huge milestone and were
really getting close to the finish line,
Stone said. I know Im incredibly excited
and a lot of Belmont residents are excited
to finally see a finished product that will
help create the town and downtown that
will lead to the future of Belmont we all
want and deserve.
The Planning Commission meets 7 p.m.
Tuesday, Sept. 6 at City Hall, One Twin
Pines Lane. Visit belmont.gov for more
information or to submit comments.

FISH
Continued from page 5
Chinook salmon are an anchor species in California, not
just for the states estimated $1.4 billion commercial and
sport fishing salmon industry, but for the health of land,
river and ocean habitats. Because salmon divide their lives
between the ocean and rivers, they provide food for animals
ranging from orcas to bears and eagles. Once the fish die
upstream, their decomposing bodies supply nitrogen that
helps sustain forests.
Along with putting the winter-run salmon on the highly
endangered list, federal authorities announced this year that
they would formally review their management of key state
waterways and reservoirs with regards to survival of native
species.
Farmers and some fishermen envision a different future
for salmon, with more machinery aiding their life cycle and
less water.
Paul Wenger, an almond farmer and president of the
California Farm Bureau Federation, has urged water managers, unsuccessfully so far, to consider widespread use of
prototype mist incubators, touted to hatch larger numbers
of salmon eggs in temperature-controlled machines using a
fraction of the water the eggs would get in river beds.
Gonella, the fishing industry representative, thinks
Californias hatcheries might have to be moved to the
oceanside, eliminating young salmons ancient migration
down rivers that now have too little water.
Environmental groups want agencies to go the other way,
with less machinery and more water.
The fact that these fish can no longer survive in the system that theyve become genetically adapted to over how
many centuries says something about how badly were managing the system, said Kate Poole, a senior attorney with
the Natural Resources Defense Council. What we really
need to focus on is creating healthy river conditions so
these fish can survive and thrive in the wild.

HISTORY
Continued from page 3
Even if the beach stayed open, it is debatable how long
Pacific City would have lasted. It faced strong competition
from Neptune Beach in Alameda, and, in a few years, there
would be Playland-at-the-Beach in San Francisco.
The late Bay Area news reporter and historian Jerry
Flamm said Neptune Beach, which closed in 1939, was the
real Coney Island of the West.
Flamm described Neptune Beach as 120-acre spread of
entertainment and recreation that has never been duplicated in the Bay Area.
Neptune boasted two swimming pools with filtered salt
water pumped from the Bay, and the largest and gaudiest set
of rides and concessions on the Pacific Coast, Flamm
wrote in Good Life and Hard Times: San Franciscos 20s
and 30s. He recounted that on weekends crowds of up to
30,000 were funneled into Neptune Beach from ferryboats,
electric trains, streetcars and buses, in private automobiles,
and even on steam trains from Sacramento and other interior towns and cities.
Pacific City, Neptune Beach and Playland are all gone, but
for a taste of what it was like theres still Santa Cruz and the
Boardwalk.
