Police arrested a juvenile who allegedly
carjacked a vehicle in San Bruno and led
officers on a pursuit that ended with a crash
in San Mateo early Friday morning.
Officers responded at 2:12 a.m. to the area
of Santa Lucia and Elm avenues in San Bruno
on a report that someone had taken out a
weapon and ordered a victim out of their
vehicle, police said.
Officers spotted the stolen car shortly
afterward as it merged onto southbound
Highway 101 and the driver refused to yield
when police tried to pull the vehicle over.
The vehicle then exited the highway onto
Poplar Avenue in San Mateo where it struck
two parked cars, according to police.
The juvenile driver was arrested at the
scene and then taken to a hospital for treat-
ment of minor injuries. The juvenile’s name
was not released.
Anyone with information about the case
is encouraged to contact San Bruno police at

Breed keeps top spot in mayor’s race
By Daniel Montes
BAY CITY NEWS SERVICE
Exactly one week after voters went to the
polls to choose San Francisco’s next
mayor, President of the Board of
Supervisors London Breed remains in the
lead.
According to the latest numbers released
Tuesday, Breed remains ahead of former state
senator Mark Leno with 111,446 votes,
translating to 50.42 percent.
Leno is behind, but only by 1,861 votes.
As of Tuesday, Leno has received 109,585
votes, or 49.58 percent.
Tuesday marks the fourth straight day
Breed has maintained a lead over Leno, who
initially led the race, according to last
week’s election numbers.
Inspector general: Two U.S. dams at risk of ‘insider threats’
By Kathleen Ronayne
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SACRAMENTO — Two dams critical to
U.S. national security are at high risk for
“insider threats” that could impair opera-
tions because of poor computer security
practices such as too many employees hav-
ing access to administrator accounts and
failures to routinely change passwords,
according to a new inspector general
report.
An evaluation released Monday by the
U.S. Department of the Interior doesn’t
name the two dams, and spokeswoman
Nancy DiPaolo cited national security con-
cerns. But they are among five dams operat-
ed by the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation that
are considered “critical infrastructure, ”
On Monday, the elec-
tions department includ-
ed about 9,000 votes that
were tallied since
Sunday. Additionally,
elections officials said
they are still processing
more than 17,000 bal-
lots.
The mayoral vote
London Breed
reflects San Francisco
ranked-choice voting, in which voters mark
their first, second and third choices. As can-
didates with fewer votes are successively
eliminated, their supporters’ votes are
given to their other choices.
On Monday, Breed’s campaign released a
statement, touting Breed’s dominance.
“The most important thing now is that
meaning their destruction or impairment
could hurt national security. Those five
dams are Shasta and Folsom Dams in
California, Glen Canyon Dam in Arizona,
Grand Coulee Dam in Washington and
Hoover Dam, which straddles Nevada and
Arizona.
The United States and other countries
have accused Russian hackers of trying to
infiltrate critical infrastructure such as
power plants, elevating the sensitivity
around making sure U. S. systems are
secure.
The inspector general’s report found the
two dams are at low-risk of outside cyber
infiltration — but at high risk of threats
from within. They’re run remotely through
a computer system that controls genera-
tors, valves and gates at the dams from a
every single vote must
be counted,” Breed cam-
paign consultant Marjan
Philhour said in the
statement.
“Debates about the
Ranked Choice system
can come later, this is
the system we had going
Mark Leno in, and it’s the system we
have coming out. We are
pleased to see RVC outcomes, first choice
margins and citywide pluralities converging
towards one clear leader, and that leader is
London Breed,” Philhour said.
The winner of the mayoral race will serve
the remainder of the late Mayor Ed Lee’s
term, which runs through January 2020. Lee
died unexpectedly in December.
U.S. Bureau of Reclamation operations cen-
ter. The agency disputed some of the find-
ings.
Among the factors cited as security risks:
Too many people have access to adminis-
trative accounts, employees aren’t chang-
ing their passwords often enough, account
access isn’t always revoked when employ-
ees leave, and the agency isn’t conducting
robust enough background checks for
employees with high-level privileges. For
example, the evaluation found nine of 30
administrator accounts hadn’t been used in
more than a year.
The report characterized the issues as
“significant control weaknesses that could
be exploited by insiders.”

Obituary

John Preston Plane

April 22, 1949 – May 27, 2018
John Preston Plane, resident of Hillsborough, passed away
on May 27, 2018, at Mills-Peninsula Hospital at the age of 69,
after a difficult battle with cancer. Born in Vallejo on April
22, 1949, raised in the East Bay, he spent most of his adult
life in San Mateo. He spent four years in the Navy and served
two tours in Vietnam on the USS Midway, meeting his wife of
many years, Gale, in Hong Kong while on R&R.
John began his construction career in 1973 and worked for Hodgson Construction
in Redwood City for 18 years, starting as an apprentice carpenter and ending as
company president. In 1993 he founded John Plane Construction, Inc. which grew in
size and reputation over nearly 25 years.
John was an avid duck hunter who loved his labs and anything in the outdoors,
especially fishing. He was a long-time member of Murdock Gun Club in Colusa,
CA, and a supporter of Ducks Unlimited and California Waterfowl Association. More
recently, he enjoyed spending weekends in Bodega Bay and watching his grandsons
play baseball and soccer.
He will be deeply missed by his wife, Gale Larkin Plane of Hillsborough, daughters
Elizabeth Plane of San Jose and Stephanie Plane of Watsonville, grandsons Preston
Conrad, Anthony John (AJ) Plane, and Isaac Garcia, as well as his mother, Barbara
Plane, and sister Barbara Leibundgut of Washington.
Services were private, but a celebration of his life will be held on Sunday, June
24, from 1-4 at Green Hills Country Club located at 500 Ludeman Lane in Millbrae,
CA. The family suggests donations to Mission Hospice and Home Care or Mills-
Peninsula Hospital Foundation in John’s name.

Charitable giving in U.S. tops $400 billion for first time
By David Crary
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Fueled by a surging stock
market and huge gifts from billionaires,
charitable giving in the United States in
2017 topped the $400 billion mark for the
first time, according to the latest compre-
hensive report on Americans’ giving pat-
terns.
The Giving USA report, released
Tuesday, said giving from individuals,
estates, foundations and corporations
reached an estimated $410 billion in 2017
— more than the gross domestic product
of countries such as Israel and Ireland. The
total was up 5.2 percent in current dollars
(3 percent adjusted for inflation) from the
estimate of $389.64 billion for 2016.
“Americans’ record-breaking charitable
giving in 2017 demonstrates that even in
divisive times our commitment to philan-
thropy is solid, ” said Aggie Sweeney,

D.C. unveils special exhibits as ’Hamilton’ comes to town
By Ashraf Khalil
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — The blockbuster musi-
cal “Hamilton” is finally coming to the
nation’s capital, and the city is preparing
in ways that only Washington can.
Lin-Manuel Miranda’s genre-bending
historical musical about the life of
Alexander Hamilton is starting a three-
month run at the Kennedy Center on
Tuesday.
Hamilton didn’t actually spend much of
his life or professional career in
Washington. The U. S. capital was in

However, the myriad museums of modern
Washington have been preparing special-
ized exhibits designed to appeal to tourists
and locals who can’t get the tunes out of
their heads.
“D.C. seems like the sort of town that’s
tailor-made for this sort of wonky, nerding

said Daniel Piazza, chief curator of stamp
collections at the Smithsonian’s National

reflective of Hamilton’s life and career. But
the real prize of the exhibit are the two
flintlock pistols made of walnut, brass and
gold that were used in the July 11, 1804,
duel with Vice President Aaron Burr, which
resulted in Hamilton’s death.
The pistols are on loan from the private
collection of JPMorgan Chase & Co. They
will only be on display through June 24,
although the museum’s larger Hamilton
exhibit will continue through next year.
The Library of Congress is unveiling its
own Hamilton display, drawing on its col-
lection of more than 12,000 of Hamilton’s
papers and documents. Much of it will have
direct connections and references that fans
of the musical will recognize, according to
curator Julie Miller.

than 6 percent included education, health,
arts and culture, environment and animal
welfare, and public-society benefit organ-
izations — groups which work on such
issues as voter education, civil rights,
civil liberties and consumer rights.
Despite the record-setting total,
Americans’ level of generosity is no high-
er than it was decades ago. For 2017, giv-
ing by individuals represented 2 percent of
total disposable income — down from 2.4
percent in 2000 and the same as the rate in
1978. Similarly, total charitable dona-
tions have hovered around 2 percent of the
gross domestic product for many years; for
2017, that figure was 2.1 percent.

Trump sees ‘new future’ for
N. Korea, but path unclear
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SINGAPORE — President Donald
Trump wrapped up his five-hour
nuclear summit with North Korean
leader Kim Jong Un with surpris-
ingly warm words and hope for “a
bright new future” for Kim’s isolat-
ed and impoverished nation. Yet he
immediately faced pointed ques-
tions at home about whether he got
little and gave away much in his
push to make a deal with the young
autocrat — including an agreement
to halt U.S. military exercises with
South Korea.

The head-scratching was a fitting

unthinkable just months earlier as
the two leaders traded insults and
nuclear threats. In agreeing to the
summit, Trump risked granting Kim
his long-sought recognition on the
world stage in hopes of ending the
North’s nuclear program.
While progress on the nuclear
question was murky, the leaders
spent the public portions of their
five hours together expressing
optimism and making a show of
their new relationship. Trump
declared he and Kim had developed
“a very special bond.” He gave Kim
a glimpse of the presidential limou-
sine. Kim, for his part, said the
leaders had “decided to leave the
past behind” and promised, “The
world will see a major change.”

and Matthew Pennington

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Beaming in the
moments after his summit with Kim
Jong Un, President Donald Trump
was asked about North Korea’s his-
tory of human rights horrors. “It’s
rough,” he allowed. Then he added,
“It’s rough in a lot of places, by the
way. Not just there.”
Trump’s verbal shrug in
Singapore represented a striking
change from the way U.S. presi-
dents have viewed their job, a shift
from the nation’s asserted stance as
the globe’s moral leader in favor of
an approach based more on trade-
offs with adversaries and allies
alike.
Trump, who quickly left for the
long journey home after his whirl-
wind summit with Kim, made clear
sole interest — was taking a first
step toward denuclearizing the
Korean Peninsula. There was no lec-
turing of Kim over how to treat his
own people in a nation that is esti-
mated to have between 80,000 and
120,000 political prisoners and
remains one of the world’s most
closed and oppressive societies.
Though Trump is far from the first
U.S. president to work with an
unsavory counterpart to achieve a
strategic goal, his decision to
broadcast that he tacitly accepts
Kim’s history of atrocities was a
sharp break from the position of
presidents from both parties to set
America as the exemplar shining
city on a hill for other nations to
emulate. It has been much the same
at home.
He pointedly refused to exclusive-
ly blame neo-Nazis and white
deadly clash with anti-racist demon-
strators in Charlottesville,
Virginia, suggesting there was
blame “on both sides.” And when
he asked to condemn the murders
carried out under the rule of Vladimir
Putin in Russia, Trump retorted
“There are a lot of killers. You think
our country’s so innocent?”
But Trump did draw graphic atten-
tion to North Korea’s human rights
record in his State of the Union
address in January, and championed
the plight of U.S. citizens who had
been imprisoned in Pyongyang. So
he was all but bound to address the
issue in some form in his unprece-
dented meeting with Kim Jong Un.
He told reporters that he did raise
the cases of Japanese abducted by
North Korea in the 1970s and
1980s and the plight of persecuted
Christians in North Korea.
For Trump and Kim, maybe the
spectacle is what truly counted
By Ted Anthony
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Put aside the
“deliverables” and the “outcomes”
and the “takeaways.” Put aside, for
argument’s sake, the question of
what was actually accomplished,
at least in the way that we usually
use the word. Put aside your poli-
tics, even — if only for a moment.
The summit that brought Donald
Trump of Washington and Kim
Jong Un of Pyongyang together
for gripping, grinning and talking
Tuesday is being vigorously
debated across the planet for what
it did, what it didn’t do and who
emerged on top.
Strip away the spectacle and
look for the substance, the pundits
insist. But what if that’s not the
whole point? What if, on a sunny
tropical morning in Singapore,
the spectacle itself was the most
substantial thing of all?
“People thought this could
never take place. It is now taking
place,” Trump said after the meet-
ing. And in that he is utterly cor-
rect. A decade ago, a year ago and
certainly six months ago, the
notion of these two sitting down
together — “Little Rocket Man”
and the “deranged U.S. dotard,” as
they derisively called each other
— seemed unfathomable.

House aiming at campaign-season
bills focus on battling opioid abuse
By Alan Fram
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — The House is diving
into a two-week vote-a-thon on dozens of
bills aimed at opioids abuse, as lawmakers
seek to bolster efforts to curb a crisis that’s
killing tens of thousands a year and to score
a popular win they can tout for the midterm
elections.
A handful of the measures are contentious,
including one Republican bill that would
create new criminal penalties for making or
trafficking certain synthetic drugs contain-
ing fentanyl. That powerful opioid can be
made illegally and is taking a growing toll.
Democrats complain that the legislation
would give the government unfettered power
to decide which drugs would be banned,
without scientific input.
Most of the 39 bills scheduled for votes
this week and dozens more next week are
modest and also bipartisan — testament to
the deadly toll the problem is inflicting in
urban Democratic and rural Republican areas
alike. They include one allowing the gov-
ernment to repay up to $250,000 in student
loans for some drug treatment workers who
agree to serve in areas with especially
severe problems. Others would prod health
care providers to prominently display in
their records when a patient has substance
abuse problems, and create grants to help
hospitals open opioid treatment centers
with a wide range of services.
Congress would have to provide actual
money for the new programs in later bills —
a difficult task, even for popular programs,
with annual federal deficits expected to soon
surpass $1 trillion.
Nearly 64,000 people died from drug over-
doses in 2016, including around two-thirds
whose deaths involved opioids, according
to the most recent figures from the federal
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
An estimated 11.8 million people misused
opioids that year, mostly by abusing pre-
scription pain relievers.
Opioids are natural or synthetic drugs that
can be prescribed for pain relief, but they
can also be made illicitly or legally provid-
ed prescriptions can be abused.
TV news crews await rulings outside the U.S. Supreme Court as the court nears the end of its
term with justices weighing decisions in several pending cases.
Supreme Court’s inactive voter roll
decision may have limited impact
By Christina A. Cassidy
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ATLANTA — A U.S. Supreme Court ruling
has cleared the way for states to take a
tougher approach to maintaining their voter
rolls, but will they?
Ohio plans to resume its process for
removing inactive voters, which was
affirmed in Monday’s 5-4 ruling, after the
November elections. It takes a particularly
aggressive approach that appears to be an
outlier among states.
Few appear eager to follow.
“Our law has been on the books. It hasn’t
changed, and it isn’t changing, ” said
Oklahoma Election Board spokesman Bryan
Dean.
At issue is when a state begins the process
to notify and ultimately remove people
from the rolls after a period of non-voting.
In most states with similar laws, like
Sexual harassment seen as

National Academies of Sciences, Engineering

tions aimed at U.S. institutions of higher edu-
cation and groups that fund them.

Oklahoma, that process begins after voters
miss two or more federal elections.
In Ohio, it starts if voters sit out a two-
year period that includes just one federal
election. They are removed from the rolls if
they fail to vote over the following four
years or do not return an address-confirma-
tion card.
Opponents of the laws say their intent is
to purge people from the rolls, particularly
minorities and the poor who tend to vote
Democratic. Supporters say voters are given
plenty of chances to keep their active status
and that the rules adhere to federal law requir-
ing states to maintain accurate voter rolls.
Democrats and voting rights groups have
expressed concern that other states will be
emboldened by the ruling and adopt more
aggressive tactics to kick voters off the
rolls. In addition to Oklahoma, Georgia,
Montana, Oregon, Pennsylvania and West
Virginia have laws similar to Ohio’s.
Around the nation
While women are still outnumbered by
men, universities are recruiting more
women to science-related fields than ever
before — but the new report makes clear that
pervasive sexual harassment puts those
gains at risk.
“If we are losing talent in science, engi-
neering and medicine, then that is some-
thing that is detrimental to our country and
quite frankly to the world, ” Wellesley
College President Paula Johnson, who co-
chaired the report, said in an interview.

Getting Americans back in the labor force
The Wall Street Journal
T
he low U.S. labor force partic-
ipation rate has several caus-
es, but a major one is the dis-
incentive to work created by govern-
ment programs. The Republican
Party’s growth wing has spent years
developing ideas for addressing these
incentives not to work and rise up the
economic ladder, and the results are
starting to show.
Last month to almost no attention
the House Ways and Means
Committee moved a bill from
Chairman Kevin Brady that would
update the Temporary Assistance for
Needy Families program, known as
TANF. This program is the result of
the Newt Gingrich-Bill Clinton 1996
welfare reform.
The American Enterprise Institute’s
Robert Doar noted recently that TANF
on the whole is a success. The pro-
gram has declined as a share of 1996
spending while Medicaid and food
stamps have exploded. One big rea-
son is because TANF is a block grant
to states, unlike the Medicaid racket
that allows states to draw down more
federal dollars for every new enrollee.
The program even survived attempts
at sabotage by the Obama
Administration like expanding
Letters to the editor
Say no to cell towers
Editor,
There are no laws regulating the
installation of cell towers in San
Mateo. Telecom companies are in a
race to install a cell tower on every
block in every residential neighbor-
hood and business area of our city.
The telecoms have admitted that these
towers are needed to advance 5G net-
works which require the towers be
closer to customers. 5G has not been
developed and tested so why all the
rush? The answer is simple, if the tele-
com does not substantially change the
dimensions of a 4G tower, they can
quickly upgrade it to 5G without pro-
viding any notice to residents.
The City Council will finally con-
sider a draft ordinance regulating cell
towers in the public right of way 7
p.m. June 18. San Mateo will be inun-
dated with excessive, unnecessary and
possibly harmful cell towers unless
the City Council promptly acts to
strengthen the draft ordinance to pro-
tect citizen safety and property val-
ues. Citizens should be given the
opportunity to provide substantial
input into the draft. This is our home.
Telecoms should be challenged as to
whether proposed 4G cell towers are
really necessary to close a substantial
gap in service.

waivers for work requirements.
The current system requires states to
engage 50 percent of families in work
activities. But that means states can
write off some of the tougher cases.
And gimmicks like a “caseload reduc-
tion credit” allow states to buy down
the 50 percent rate to a much lower
benchmark or even 0 percent of fami-
lies. Mr. Brady’s bill would require
that 100 percent of recipients engage
in work or training as a precondition
of receiving benefits.
More broadly, the bill moves from a
measure of participation in work to
new metrics that will try to tilt at
questions such as: Did this recipient
get and keep a job? Health and Human
Services will manage a dashboard that
grades states. States have flexibility
on setting goals and targets, which
can dilute accountability but is an
improvement over the status quo.
Some changes aren’t about the
folks receiving benefits but the peo-
ple who run the programs. State bene-
fit offices are too often places to pick
up a check and little else. The plan
would toughen up case-management
practices, which is essential for help-
ing folks, say, making a career transi-
tion.
Do you want multiple cell towers in
front of homes, schools, day care cen-
ters and your favorite restaurant?
Should the business strategy of tele-
coms thwart citizen rights? Please get
involved. Write the City Council.

improvements at El Camino Real and
State Route 92. I believe this project
has dramatically improved traffic,
pedestrian and bicycle safety and
operations at this heavily-used junc-

conflicts on El Camino and 92 and
constructing signalized intersections,
bicycle lanes and new sidewalks.

OPINION
The bill also says that states must
direct the funding toward families
below 200 percent of the poverty
line. Governors and state legislators
have shuffled money around into other
priorities that aren’t aimed at low-
income individuals, and TANF funding
has become a popular pot for state
lawmakers to raid in a pinch.
Attacks from Democrats will not be
nuanced — or accurate. Mr. Brady’s
bill maintains current levels of fund-
ing. It isn’t “slashing” or “gutting”
or other descriptions that are sure to
appear in the coming weeks. For now
the bill looks like a long shot in the
Senate thanks to flight risks like
Susan Collins of Maine, but welfare
reform is popular. The House is also
moving as part of the farm bill on
work requirements for food stamps,
which are a much larger share of
spending on income transfers.
The timing is right for these
reforms amid a 3.8 percent jobless
rate and worker shortages across the
country. Paying people to make it
easy not to work — and thus languish
for a lifetime in poverty — is not
compassionate. It’s destructive of
human dignity and leads to more
inequality. Republicans are right that
welfare reform will assist American
upward mobility, and they should take
the case to the public.
I recall conceived the project a couple
decades (or more) back; Brad
Underwood, Public Works director;
Hae Won Ritchie, engineering manag-
er; and Otis Chan, senior engineer
were key actors.
The San Mateo County
Transportation Agency (SMCTA)
Board and staff were responsible for
funding $18M of the total $26M proj-
ect, with city, state and federal dollars
providing the balance. SMCTA
Projects Director Joe Hurley and
Project Manager Pam Kwan led this
critical role.
Caltrans, owner and operator,
designed the project and advertised,
awarded and administered the contract.
Numerous Caltrans engineers and con-
struction management personnel were
involved, and Doug Inori was Caltrans
project engineer.
Last but not least, Ghilotti
Construction was the general contrac-
tor and applied its deep and broad
experience to the difficult challenges
of building the improvements under
major traffic loads.
These projects take a lot of time and
effort, and those involved deserve our
thanks.

Life with Father
“C
ompetent fathering is one of the most pow-
erful, renewable resources in the life of a
family — generation after generation. The
potential of every boy and girl born into a family is
brought to fruition by involved fathering, or confounded
or dissipated by destructive fathering.” — Kyle D. Pruett,
“Fatherneed.”
A few years ago, we spent a couple of weeks in Yosemite
Valley, reveling in the natural beauty of the mountains,
trees, rivers and waterfalls, renewing our spirits, enjoying
the quiet without TV or radio. When we weren’t appreciat-
ing nature as we toured the valley floor on our bicycles or
picnicking in a meadow, I enjoyed people watching. It
was fascinating to watch the various ways that parents
interacted with their children. I especially noted some of
the men (assuming dads) who demonstrated disparate
images of parenting.
One evening near the
ranger program area where
children like to play while
their parents chat or wait to
get into the restaurant, I
noticed a father with a tod-
dler in each hand joyfully
leaping from the stage onto
the ground (about 12 inch-
es). Over and over again
they enthusiastically
repeated the jumps. After
one child slipped and
bumped his shin, Daddy
sympathetically brushed
away his tears. Soon mother called them to dinner and off
they merrily skipped.
Soon a baby’s loud cry caught my attention. Storming
out of the bar came a man holding a screaming baby of
around a year old on his hip, facing out — a drink and a
cigarette in the other hand. The father was obviously
angry — seemingly incensed that his “happy hour” had
been interrupted by that “awful brat.” He obviously was
not interested in comforting the child.
The next day I noticed a man and a small girl sitting on
a large rock next to a meadow that had been roped off for
preservation and renewal. Dad (I assumed) was telling the
girl why she shouldn’t play in that meadow or pick the
flowers. Then, when a big blue jay brazenly hopped close
to them, possibly hoping for a crumb of the cookie the
child held, they marveled together about the bird.
At another time, I noticed a young boy and his father
sitting near the pool, apparently waiting for someone.
The child picked up a stick that he immediately trans-
formed into a “firearm.” Wildly waving the stick in the air,
he shouted, “Bang, bang, Daddy! You’re dead.” “Look,”
said Daddy, “Shoot that bird up there.” Then, “Shoot that
squirrel. Get that other bird.” Mother arrived and, as the
three walked away, the boy continued his imaginary
slaughter.
Of course, I have no way of knowing what kinds of par-
ents these men were at any other time, but I think my
brief observation of their behavior gave a pretty good
clue. At least these children had their fathers in their
lives, unlike many who have been abandoned by their
dads in one way or another, but, of course, there is more to
it than that. As Pruett wrote: “The bottom line, document-
ed over and over again, is that the degree of involvement
of father with sons and daughters is solidly associated
with self-esteem measures in older adolescents.”
Among other things, a competent father is one who
feels good enough about himself so that he doesn’t see his
children merely as some kind of status symbol or an
impediment to his personal interests. He’s happy to give
of himself and his time to contribute to his children’s
healthy growth and development and is willing to learn in
the process. He has grown up enough so that he is not
childish or hung up on authority and therefore can be
patient, kind, understanding and supportive. Being secure
in his manhood, he enables his kids to look up to him as
a model of responsibility, integrity, reliability and com-
petency, yet he’s not so rigid that he cannot be playful.
Though some children apparently manage OK without
the presence of their dad in their lives, in our culture we
often underestimate the positive contribution that a
devoted and loving father can have in all aspects of his
children’s lives, including a less stressed mother. We also
do not seem to take seriously the devastation fathers can
wreak when they renege on their responsibilities.
Competent, involved, devoted, responsible fathers who
try to do their best for their children deserve all of the
accolades they can get.
“The bottom line seems to be that fatherhood and
fathering are enormously important, and when fathers are
crippled and cast aside, serious repercussions are felt
throughout the nation.” — Sylvia Ann Hewlett, “The War
Against Parents.”

Stocks mostly rise following Trump-Kim summit

By Ken Sweet
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Stocks mostly
rose in a quiet Tuesday session, as
investors reacted calmly to the
outcome of a meeting between
President Donald Trump and North
Korean leader Kim Jong Un, and
turned their attentions to this
week’s trio of central bank meet-
ings.
The Standard & Poor’s 500 index
rose 4.85 points, or 0.2 percent,
to 2,786.85, closing at its highest
level since February 1. The Nasdaq
composite added 43.87 points, or
0.6 percent, to 7,703.79 and the
Dow Jones industrial average fell
1.58 points, or less than 0.1 per-
cent, to 25,320.73. The Russell
2000, an index that makes up
mostly small companies, rose
7.62 points, or 0.5 percent, to
1,682.30.
Both the Russell and the Nasdaq
set new record highs.
Trump and Kim concluded their
summit by committing to work-
ing “toward complete denu-
clearization of the Korean
Peninsula” and to “build a lasting
and stable peace regime” on the
Korean Peninsula.
The broad promises largely reit-
erated past agreements, while
many of the details were left vague
and there was no agreement on

Tesla cuts 9 percent of workforce in bid to post a profit

By Tom Krisher
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
DETROIT — Electric car maker Tesla Inc.
is laying off about 3,600 workers mainly
from its salaried ranks as it slashes costs in
an effort to deliver on CEO Elon Musk’s
promise to turn a profit in the second half of
the year.
In an email to workers on Tuesday, Musk
said the cuts amount to ramp up production of its lower-priced

today, ” Musk wrote in the email. He
thanked departing employees for their hard
work and said Tesla is providing “signifi-
cant salary and stock vesting” to those
being let go, based on their length of serv-
ice.
Tesla has not made an annual profit in its
15 years of doing business, and it has post-
ed only two quarterly net profits.
At the company’s annual shareholder
meeting earlier this month, Musk said he
expected the Palo Alto, California, compa-
ny to post a quarterly profit during the July-
September period. For nearly all of its his-
tory, Tesla has put up losses while invest-
ing heavily in technology, manufacturing
plants and an extensive car-charging net-

It’s not the first time Tesla has laid off
workers. The company let go of 400 to 700
workers last fall after completing annual
performance reviews, and it laid off a small
number of workers back in 2008.
Musk wrote in the email that the company
will never achieve its mission to help move
the world to cleaner energy “unless we even-

ably profitable.”

Seattle repeals tax on companies

after Amazon fights pushes back
By Phuing Le
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SEATTLE — Seattle leaders on Tuesday
repealed a tax on large companies such as
Amazon and Starbucks after a backlash from
businesses, a stark reversal from a month
ago when the City Council unanimously
approved the effort to combat a growing
homelessness crisis.
A divided crowd chanted, jeered and booed
at the council meeting, drowning out the
leaders as they cast their 7-2 vote. Many
shouted, “Stop the repeal, ” as others
unfurled a large red banner that read, “Tax
Amazon.” An opposing group held “No tax
on jobs” signs.
The vote showed Amazon’s ability to
aggressively push back on government
taxes, especially in its affluent hometown
where it’s the largest employer with more
than 45,000 workers and where some have
criticized it for helping cultivate a widening
income gap that is pricing lower-income
workers out of housing.
The tax was proposed as a progressive
revenue source aimed at tackling one of the
nation’s highest homelessness numbers, a
problem that hasn’t eased even as city
spending on the issue grew.
Businesses and residents demanded more
accountability in how Seattle funds home-
lessness and housing and said the city
should take a regional approach to the prob-
lem. Many worried that Amazon and others
would leave the city as the companies
sharply criticized the tax as misguided.

Bruno Colts keep rolling

It wasn’t pretty, but the San Bruno Orioles

kept pace atop the Peninsula Colt League
standings with a 13-3 mercy-rule win over
Daly City Tuesday night at Lara Field.
The Orioles (12-1) found themselves in
unfamiliar territory in the early going, fac-

second inning turned the tide, it did little to
restore order to a game that, fundamentally,
was spiraling out of control.

Marlins shut down Giants’ offense
By Christopher Stock
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
MIAMI — Three years after going undraft-
ed out of Drury College, Trevor Richards has
earned his first major league win.
Richards pitched six effective innings to
lead the Miami Marlins to a 3-1 victory over
the San Francisco Giants on Tuesday night.
“It’s great, it’s good to get that one out of
the way,” Richards said. “It’s been too long
so it’s good to get it done.”
Richards (1-3) allowed two hits in his sev-
enth major league start. The 25-year-old
right-hander struck out two and walked
three.
“He’s been a good story, he’s thrown the
ball well,” Marlins manager Don Mattingly
said. “Obviously Pitcher of the Year last
year in the minor leagues, really good
reports on his makeup and how he works,
competes, and pays attention so it’s good to
see guys like that have success.”
Richards walked the first two batters of
the game before settling in.
“I got a little too excited for the game, a
little amped up and lost mechanics, ”
Richards said. “I was able to settle down and
keep going.”

batters later, and then chased Mengden with
a two-run double with two outs in the fifth.
“He’s obviously seeing the ball and he’s

“(Stratton) left me a fastball over the mid-

with another one, he did, left it over the

Conley ready for fresh start
By Josh Dubow
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ALAMEDA — Gareon Conley is ready for
a fresh start.
The 2017 first-round pick who was
expected to become the shutdown corner-
back Oakland has lacked for years had his
first season derailed by injuries that limited
him to just two games as a rookie and creat-
ed a void in the Raiders secondary.
“I feel like it’s still my rookie year
because I didn’t play a lot,” Conley said
Tuesday. “I learned a lot mentally. I feel like
it’s my second year mentally knowing the
game and the logistics. But physically I feel
like it’s my rookie year again because I did-
n’t play a lot.”
Conley is a key part of a revamped sec-
ondary that brings back just one cornerback
who played at least 100 snaps on defense
last year in Dexter McDonald, who is a
longshot to make the team in 2018.
David Amerson and Sean Smith were let
go and TJ Carrie left for Cleveland in free
agency. In their place are free agent acquisi-

Leon Hall, as well as draft pick Nick
Nelson.

universities, including Florida State, USC
and UCLA.

wrapped up and done by end of day Wednesday
and the school is planning a ribbon-cutting
ceremony at 5:30 p.m. Monday, June 18.
The format of beach volleyball, which is
played in the spring, is similar to that of
high school tennis. The team match is decid-
ed by a best-of-three series between three,
two-person teams ranked No. 1 through 3.
Each match is a best-of-three sets, played to
21.
Notre Dame had a sizable team this season,
with what Barry Peters said was 12 girls who
were committed. The hope is that by building
the courts, the school can drum up even more
interest.
“With [courts] on campus, [participation]
will grow,” Levine said. “I think … we’ll
have more kids playing. … I think it will be
(recognized) by CIF soon.”
Levine also sees the sand courts as way to
enhance training for other sports.
“We want all our athletes to train on these,”
Levine said. “Provide some fun and work
some different muscles.”
It was Kendall Peters’ prowess on the sand
that facilitated the new courts being approved
for the school. Her father, Barry Peters, who
also sits on the school’s board, did a lot of
the legwork in getting the courts installed.
“About two-and-a-half years ago, we pre-
sented the idea to the board, and the board was
apprehensive about it,” Barry Peters said.
“(But) we saw the potential growth (of the
sport).”
Instead of fighting the school board, Barry
Peters essentially went out and showed it the
interest in the sport. After discussing it with
coordinators in Southern California, Barry
Peters helped form a four-team league for the
2017 season. Barry Peters said he invited a
number of schools to the 2017 league cham-
pionship finals to both watch and participate
in exhibition matches. He said 18, two-per-
son teams from 14 schools showed up and in
2018, the league expanded to more than two
dozen schools, including teams from Aragon,
Burlingame, Carlmont, Menlo-Atherton,
Sacred Heart Prep and Woodside.
“We’re just trying to get as many girls as
we can out on the sand,” Barry Peters said.

Nick Solorzano laces his fourth hit of the game for the San Bruno Orioles Tuesday at Lara Field.

but that’s why I love having the 18 kids (on
the roster). They stay hungry, they stay
ready and when they get their chance they
always come through.”
No. 7 hitter Nick Solorzano enjoyed a
banner night at the plate for San Bruno,
going 4 for 4 with a double and four runs
scored. The speedster has alternated
between the No. 2 and 7 spots in the order
this season, but he certainly showed a
knack for turning over the order Tuesday
night.
“I was feeling good,” Solorzano said. “I
was feeling confident up there.”
“He’s very reliable and very smart on the
bases,” Tursi said. “He and [leadoff hitter
Tyler Firpo], they are both very, very fast.
They set the table … and the guys at the bot-
tom of the order picked them up.”
Both Solorzano and Firpo played a piv-
otal role in the comeback second.
Daly City struck first, getting to San
Bruno starting pitcher Jackson Moore for a
pair of runs in the opening frame. The first
three Daly City batters reached to load the
bases — Calvin Louie reached on an infield
error, C.J. Cabanero singled to left, and
Kevin Kwang walked — before Jordan
Renteria socked a two-run single left.
In the second, Daly City added a run when,
after Louie walked, Kwang hit an infield
smash that went for a three-base error to
make it 3-0.
“We haven’t had a problem scoring runs
this year, ” Daly City manager Chris

Quintana said. “I wasn’t
too concerned about
holding the lead. I was
really worried about the
pitching.”
Quintana said he only
slated two available
pitchers for the game. He
was ultimately forced to
C.J. Cabanero use three. Cabanero, the
starting pitcher, fought
through four innings of work, laboring
through a second inning in which he faced
nine San Bruno batters.
Tony Ballestrasse led off the Orioles’
comeback rally with a single to center.
Solorzano followed with an infield single,
and Mario Duran — who added three hits for
San Bruno — singled to load the bases.
Connor McKenna followed with an RBI
fielder’s choice and Firpo singled home
Solorzano to close the deficit to 3-2.
Then the wheels came off for the Daly City
defense. One throwing error allowed McKenna
to score the tying run. Then a dropped infield
popup off the bat of Devin Myer brought
Firpo home with the go-ahead run.
The Orioles added a run in the third, two in
the fifth and four more in the walk-off,
mercy-rule sixth. The game ended on a bases
loaded grounder off the bat Myer with Duran
crossing the plate on an error to enact the
10-run rule.
The Peninsula Colt League title looks des-
tined to come down to a grand finale, as the
two top teams in the standings — the
Orioles and the Redwood City Ravens —
meet in the final regular-season game of the
summer, next Thursday at Lara Field at 6
p.m. While Redwood City (10-1) has played
two fewer games than San Bruno, the two
teams are currently even in the loss column.

Caps celebrate sweet win PARADE
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Nine early play-
off exits paved the way for the
Capitals’ unexpected Stanley Cup run
and made the trip down Constitution
Avenue all the more satisfying to the
NHL champions and their fans.
Alex Ovechkin and Nicklas
Backstrom rode the final bus down
the mile-long parade route, lifting the
Cup to roaring cheers and waving to
seas of red in the crowd.
Five days after capturing the fran-
chise’s first title and the first of any
kind by a Washington team in the
major four professional sports since
1992, this was their day to soak in
winning following so much disap-
pointment.
“Because we waited so long, I think
it feels even better,” Backstrom said.
Hundreds of thousands of fans lined
Constitution and filled the National
Mall on Tuesday to celebrate a long
journey fulfilled. One fan held up a
sign reading, “Worth the Wait,” but
before the end of the rally, T.J. Oshie
already had the crowd thinking about
next season.
“There’s been a lot of chants,”
Oshie said. “There’s been, “Let’s Go
Caps,” there’s been, “We Want the
Cup.” We’ve heard in the streets,
“We’ve got the Cup.” We’ve got a
new one for you today — “Back-to-
back.”
The serious work of getting geared

the coming days and weeks with deci-

agents. But for players such as
Ovechkin and Backstrom who have
been through eliminations at the
hands of the Penguins, Rangers,
Lightning, Canadiens and Flyers dat-
ing to 2008, the partying leading up
to the parade isn’t close to ending.
“It just started,” Backstrom said.
Much like the Capitals did over the
weekend by taking the Cup to local
bars and restaurants, the parade was a

chance to celebrate with a fan base
that had to endure 42 seasons without
a Cup.
Fans congregated on the National
Mall hours before the parade began,
filled the steps of the National
Archives and lined up 20 deep in
some areas to catch a glimpse of
players riding more than three dozen
buses from 23rd Street to 7th.
“Look at this — look at the people
that’s here” Ovechkin said. “We
thought it was going to be crazy, but
it’s basically nuts. You guys are

crowd to see them and hear their
answers as the moved along the route.
But there were no screens and when
Klay Thompson used a megaphone to
say hello, his greeting was drowned
out by the cheering crowd.
Curry was able to connect in a dif-
ferent way when he opened a bottle of
champagne, shook it and sprayed the
crowd with it. He briefly got off the
bus and walked up to fans, throwing T-
shirts, bracelets and other souvenirs
to them and then holding the trophy
up as dozens of cameras surrounded
him.
Curry wore a large sun hat and under
it a “RUN TMC” baseball cap in
honor of Tim Hardaway, Mitch
Richmond and Chris Mullin, the
namesakes for the Don Nelson-
coached Warriors teams during the
1989-90 and 1990-91 seasons.
“We never really imagined that we
would be having one parade, let alone
two and now three,” Curry said during
a short live interview before the
parade started. “But this is for you
guys! We are going to try and get
greedy and go get some more.”
JaVale McGee, Nick Young and
Jordan Bell posed for photographs
and also mingled with fans, even hug-
ging some of them, energizing the
pumped up crowd. Even coach Steve
Kerr joined in on the fun and walked
up to fans to sign autographs.
“I’m just excited to be here with

these guys” McGee, who was wearing
only shorts, told KGO-TV. “Our fans
are amazing! All the love that they
show is just beautiful.”
Young, also just in shorts during a
very warm afternoon, ran up and down
the street, giving fans high-fives. He
then took a broom from a fan and
posed for photographs as dozens of
people took pictures with their
phones.
The repeat champions went back-
to-back, beating LeBron James and
the Cleveland Cavaliers 108-85 on
Friday night to finish off a four-game
sweep of the NBA Finals in the fourth
consecutive meeting between the
clubs.
Melissa Marzan, 25, of Santa Cruz
said she doesn’t take the Warriors’
winning streak for granted.
“We all know it’s not going to hap-
pen forever, so for now we’re just
going to enjoy it,” she said.
Oakland resident Jasmine Culp, 36,
painted her lips blue and dressed in a
sparkling golden sequined dress,
sash, and blue-gold feather acces-
sories to attend the parade with her
three children, Jonavon, Jewel, and
Cypher.
She acknowledged it could be the
family’s last parade in Oakland, since
the Warriors plan to move to San
Francisco next year.
“It’s sad to see a big part of our city
move away,” she said. “Not going to
want to travel over the bridge to see
them, but we will.”
Adriana Carnecer of San Francisco
said she is a lifelong Warriors fan and
is excited the team will be closer to
home.

Pink sangria straight up or topped with bubbly water
By Sara Moulton
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Nothing spells summertime like sangria,
the chilled and refreshing wine-based fruit
punch from Spain that landed on our shores
to stay via the 1964 World’s Fair. In its
classic form — a mix of red wine and
chopped fruit that’s sometimes further glo-
rified with orange juice and brandy — san-
gria is just about perfect. Except that it can
be rather difficult to sip the punch given all
the fruit floating around in it ... and like-
wise tricky to eat the fruit without spilling
the punch on your shirt.
Here’s my solution: pureed fruit ice cubes.
They start to melt as soon as you drop them
into the glass with your punch, releasing all
the fruit’s flavor while freeing you from
having to stick a fork into a chunk of fruit
as you drink. Meanwhile, you can appreci-
ate the increase in the drink’s fruitiness as it
deepens from the first sip to the last. Fun.
The fruit cubes in this recipe are made of
raspberries and peaches, but any fresh berry
or summer fruit will do — nectarines, apri-
cots, plums — and the riper the better.
(Frozen unsweetened fruit will also do the
job. Just let it defrost before pureeing it.)
How to puree it? Use a blender. A food
processor just won’t produce a smooth
enough texture. And, sangria aside, these
fruit cubes are a lovely addition to all sorts
of summer drinks, including iced tea and
lemonade.
As noted, sangria is usually made with red
wine. Here I’ve replaced it with some dry
rose because I think the fruits’ flavor shines
more brightly in a lighter wine. For that
matter, you could use a white wine, too. But

you’ll need to sweeten whichever wine you
choose, which means you’ll be reaching for
some superfine sugar because it melts so
easily. (It’s the ingredient bartenders use to
sweeten a cold drink.)
If you don’t want to buy superfine sugar,
it’s easy to make your own — just pour
some granulated sugar into a blender and
grind it until it’s fine. You’re also welcome
to make your own sugar syrup, but that
takes more time.
My sangria is delicious straight up or
topped off with a little bubbly water to
dilute the alcohol a bit and add some fizz.
I’m pretty sure it’ll add some fizz to your
life even without the bubbly water.

PINK SANGRIA
Start to finish: 4 hours, 30 minutes (30
active)
Servings: 6
2 cups peeled, pitted and coarsely
chopped very ripe peaches or nectarines
2 cups fresh raspberries
1 bottle (750 ml) chilled dry rose wine
1/2 cup Grand Marnier, Cointreau, Triple
Sec, or the orange liqueur of your choice
1/3 cup superfine sugar
Chilled sparkling water (optional)
1 orange, halved lengthwise, sliced
crosswise into half-moons, about 1/4-inch
thick, and then cut into triangles (you will
only need about 1/2 of the orange, save the
rest for another use)
Mint sprigs for garnish
In a blender puree the peaches until
smooth and pour into an ice cube tray.
Rinse out the blender, add the raspberries
and puree until smooth; pour into another
ice cube tray. Freeze until solid.
In a large pitcher combine the wine,
Grand Marnier and sugar and stir until the
sugar is dissolved. Unmold the iced fruit
cubes and fill rock glasses with them. Pour
the punch over the fruit cubes, topping off
each drink with a splash of sparkling water,
if desired. Garnish each glass with a few
orange triangles and a sprig of mint and
serve right away.
To make your own superfine sugar: pulse
granulated sugar in a blender until it is fine-
ly ground.

MERGER
Continued from page 1
The Trump Justice Department had sued to
block the $85 billion merger, arguing that
it would hurt competition in cable and
satellite TV and jack up costs to consumers
for streaming TV and movies.
Now, the phone and pay-TV giant will be
allowed to absorb the owner of CNN, HBO,
the Warner Bros. movie studio, “Game of
Thrones, ” coveted sports programming
and other “must-see” shows. The Justice
Department could decide to appeal the rul-
ing, however.
“The impact from this decision will have
wide reaching ramifications across the
telecommunications, media, and tech
industry for decades to come,” said GBH
Insights analyst Dan Ives. “For AT&T and
Time Warner, this is a major victory lap.”
The mega-merger was a high-stakes bet
by AT&T Inc. on combining a company
that produces news and entertainment with
one that funnels it to consumers. The
merged company, executives said, would be
better able to compete in an era in which
people spend more time watching video on
phones and tablets and less time on tradi-
tional live TV on a big screen.
Leon said the government failed to prove
that the merger would lead to higher prices
and other ham to consumers.

“The government here has taken its best
shot to oppose this merger,” Leon said,
speaking to a packed courtroom in an
unusual session weeks after the trial ended.
But, he added, “the government’s evidence
is too thin a reed for this court to rely on.”
Leon rejected the notion of temporarily
suspending the merger for a possible
appeal by the government. The “drop dead”
deadline for completing the merger is June
21. If it’s not wrapped up by then, either
company could walk away, and AT&T would
have to pay a $500 million breakup fee.
The ruling is a stinging defeat for the
Justice Department. The proposed merger
was so big and consequential that it forced
federal antitrust lawyers to reconsider legal
doctrine that permitted mergers of compa-
nies that don’t directly compete. First
floated in October 2016, the deal also
brought fire from then-candidate Donald
Trump, who promised to kill it “because
it’s too much concentration of power in the
hands of too few.”
Dallas-based AT&T is a wireless, broad-
band and satellite behemoth that also
became the country’s biggest pay-TV
provider with its purchase of DirecTV. It
claims about 25 million of the 90 million
or so U.S. households that are pay-TV cus-
tomers.
Leon’s ruling could shape the govern-
ment’s future competition policy. The rul-
ing could open the floodgates to deal mak-

lite and phone companies are bulking up
with purchases of entertainment conglom-
erates to compete against rivals born on
the internet, like Amazon and Google.
Waiting in the wings are potential big-
billions deals involving 21st Century Fox
and Disney, Verizon and CBS, T-Mobile
and Sprint. Comcast and Verizon are also
jockeying for position in the new land-
scape.
As president, Trump has called the merg-
er “not good for the country” and said he
believed it would push pay-TV prices high-
er. Looming in the background of the deal
has been Trump’s long-running feud with
Time Warner’s CNN, which he has often
derided as “failing” and a purveyor of “fake
news.”
The six-week trial featured a parade of
expert witnesses as attorneys for the
opposing sides took Leon on a journey
through the twisty dynamics of the media
and entertainment landscape. The compa-
nies’ CEOs, AT&T’s Randall Stephenson
and Jeffrey Bewkes of Time Warner Inc.,
testified in support of the deal.
The government argued that AT&T would
gain outsize market power, jacking up the
prices it charges cable providers to carry
networks in the Time Warner stable. Post-
the seat, a reality Magee is trying to
become accustomed to after days of waiting
for updated results.
Though Magee acknowledged she would
have liked to have gained even more votes
by Tuesday’s update, she said she was
happy with the upward trend in the number
of votes tallied toward her campaign and
those who supported it.
“I’m certainly very happy with today’s
posting,” she said Tuesday. “I am thrilled
that we’re at this place that it is possible to
think about being able to lead.”
Magee said she has tried her best to focus
her attention on her daily responsibilities
in the days since she became locked in a
stalemate with Waddell, but admitted she
grew somewhat anxious waiting for
Tuesday’s update to roll around at 4:30 p.m.
“It’s like nothing else I’ve ever experi-
enced in my life,” she said.
If his lead holds, Waddell would take the
top educator’s post from Anne Campbell,
who did not seek re-election, in a win over
Magee. Another update from elections offi-
cials Friday afternoon could help settle
matters, but if it doesn’t, they will have to
wait until Wednesday, June 20, for yet
another tally of the ballots.
Waddell said it’s in the hands of voters

merger, AT&T rivals like Charter
Communications and Cox, which currently
pay Time Warner for its channels, would
suddenly also become AT&T’s customers.
The government’s star witness was Carl
Shapiro, an economist at the University of
California, who used an economic model to
predict that consumer cable bills could rise
by $500 million annually in aggregate by
2021.
The companies’ main economist, Dennis
Carlton from the University of Chicago,
refuted Shapiro’s model as overly compli-
cated and rejected his conclusions. The
government failed to prove that the merger
would dampen competition and innovation
and raise prices for pay TV, said Daniel
Petrocelli, the companies’ lead attorney in
defending the merger. In fact, he suggested,
consumers could end up paying less after a
merger — maybe even $500 million less
annually.
AT&T has said it needs to buy Time
Warner to compete with the likes of
Amazon, Netflix and Google in the shape-
shifting streaming-TV environment. The
combination would push technology for-
ward and give consumers more choices,
AT&T has promised.
“We are pleased that, after conducting a
full and fair trial on the merits, the Court
has categorically rejected the govern-
ment’s lawsuit to block our merger with
Time Warner,” said David McAtee, AT&T
General Counsel. He said AT&T plans to
close the deal on or before June 20.
and it’s difficult to assess what the varying
tallies means to what will be the ultimate
total.
“It’s a close race, but we knew that going
in,” he said.
Magee said it was too early to say
whether a recount of the votes might be
needed, noting she felt the final numbers
had to come in before she would consider
that option.
“I want to give the Elections Office the
time they need to do their job and report the
numbers and then we’ll just see where they
are,” she said.
Waddell also indicated whether there
might be a recount was a question for a later
day.
School officials on the Belmont-
Redwood Shores Elementary School
District board will also be waiting for
Friday’s update to see if the thousands of
ballots still to be counted have been cast in
support of a $118 annual parcel tax they
placed on the ballot to raise about $1.4
million a year for five years. Dubbed
Measure K, the parcel tax has so far gar-
nered 4,532 votes and more than 65 percent
support from voters, bringing it just short
of the supermajority — or two-thirds sup-
port from voters — required for it to pass.

existing commercial cannabis stores
in San Carlos. Though the City
Council adopted an ordinance allowing
commercial cannabis cultivation,
manufacturing and testing in
December, no commercial cannabis
businesses are currently operating in
the city and retail cannabis establish-
ments are prohibited.
“Because retail cannabis businesses
are not permitted in San Carlos, I won-
der if some voters will be somewhat
confused,” he said. “I think that most
people will think about this like a
sales tax and so when they picture it,
they will picture the future cannabis
retail shop that will pay this tax,
which is currently not permitted in San
Carlos.”
Expected to generate $200,000 in
revenue should future businesses gen-

849 Main St. at a meeting June 11.
Officials and numerous residents,
including retailers adjacent to the site,
have been celebrating the development
for years for its ability to revitalize not
just Main Street but Walnut Street as
well, and many have showed up to sev-
eral of the nine public hearings on the
proposal to voice their support.
“It’s a no-brainer, a great project for
Redwood City, a great project for Main
Street and I’m excited to get it going,”
said Councilman John Seybert.
The Acclaim Companies’ 85,732-
square-foot project will bring a mix of
office and retail space, a 246-space
underground parking lot with valet
service, a public art gallery and a vari-
ety of other community benefits. Four
parcels will be merged into one, and
three of the four buildings currently on
the site will be demolished, but the his-
toric landmark building will be pre-
served and rehabilitated.
The office space will include an
elevated outdoor seating area, and
the building will be increasingly
set back from the street as it rises
from two to four stories, or 59 feet
Ground-level retail occupies 6,900
square feet and office space totals
78,832 square feet —  74,667 square
feet over the downtown precise plan
cap. That is one of many concessions
and amendments to the general and
downtown precise plans requested by
the developer and happily granted by
the council.
“The downtown precise plan was
meant to be a fluid document and over
time we’ve adjusted things and we’ll
continue to in the future,” Seybert said.
“This type of amendment was some-
thing that we kind of always planned .
... This is a great opportunity to con-
tinue the legacy of the downtown pre-
cise plan into an area like Main
Street.”
Councilwoman Janet Borgens said
she does not support increasing the cap
for offices, but made this one-time
exception because of the outreach
efforts of the developers —  brothers
Mark and Gary Johnson —  who have
been celebrated about as much as the
development.
“This company took the community
into consideration first,” Borgens said.
“They talked with the people first. I
really think they could give lessons on
how to build in a community and make
it successful.”
The concessions granted by the

The project will bring a variety of
improvements to the area, including
street trees and landscaping, under-
ground utilities and lighting on Walnut
Street.
For Mayor Ian Bain, the rehab of his-
toric resources, art gallery, parking on
Main Street and elimination of blight
are the project’s top selling points.
“These are all to me sustainable ben-
efits. The money for nonprofits and
schools is great but that’s one-time
money that runs out,” he said. “I look
at a project and how it’s going to
impact the community for years to
come and to me those benefits out-
weigh any disadvantages the project
may bring.”
Those one-time payments include
$605,000 to the affordable housing
fund, $85,000 for public art, $25,000
to the Redwood City Parks and Arts
Foundation, another $25,000 to local
public schools and $5,000 to the
Sheriff’s Athletic League.
This is also the second Redwood City
development in a row to receive noth-
ing but kudos from speakers during
council meetings, leaving coun-
cilmembers pleasantly surprised by
this seemingly unprecedented streak of
well-received developments.
“I don’t know what’s in the water
right now, but I like it,” Seybert said.

noticE of amEnDED PEtition to
aDminiStEr EStatE of
Leon Pawlak
Case Number: 18PRO00247-A
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, con-
tingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or es-
tate, or both, of Leon Pawlak. A Petition
for Probate has been filed by Theresa
Abrahams in the Superior Court of Cali-
fornia, County of San Mateo. The Peti-
tion for Probate requests that Theresa
Abrahams be appointed as personal rep-
resentative to administer the estate of
the decedent.
The petition requests the decedent’s will
and codicils, if any, be admitted to pro-
bate. The will and any codicils are avail-
able for examination in the file kept by
the court.
The petition requests authority to admin-
ister the estate under the Independent
Administration of Estates Act. (This au-
thority will allow the personal representa-
tive to take many actions without obtain-
ing court approval. Before taking certain
very important actions, however, the per-
sonal representative will be required to
give notice to interested persons unless
they have waived notice or consented to
the proposed action.) The independent
administration authority will be granted
unless an interested person files an ob-
jection to the petition and shows good
cause why the court should not grant au-
thority.
A hearing on the petition will be held in
this court as follows: JUNE 25, 2018 at
9:00 a.m., Superior Court of California,
County of San Mateo, 400 County Cen-
ter, Redwood City, CA 94063.
If you object to the granting of the peti-
tion, you should appear at the hearing
and state your objections or file written
objections with the court before the hear-
ing. Your appearance may be in person
or by your attorney.
If you are a creditor or a contingent cred-
itor 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 representa-
tive, as defined in section 58(b) of the
California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days
from the date of mailing or personal de-
livery to you of a notice under sectioin
9052 of the California Probate Code.Oth-
er California statutes and legal authority
may affect your rights as a creditor. You
may want to consult with an attorney
knowledgeable 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 DE-
154) of the filing of an inventory and ap-
praisal of estate assets or of any petition
or account as provided in Probate Code
section 1250. A Request for Special No-
tice form is available from the court clerk.

Saudi-led forces begin assault on Yemen port city THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
DUBAI, United Arab Emirates — A Saudi-
led coalition backing Yemen’s exiled gov-
ernment began an assault Wednesday morn-
ing on Yemen’s port city of Hodeida, a cru-
cial battle in the 3-year-old conflict that aid
agency warned could push the Arab world’s
poorest country into further chaos.
Iranian-aligned Shiite rebels known as
Houthis and their allies for years have held
the Red Sea port, crucial to food supplies in
a nation on the brink of famine after years
of war. The battle for Hodeida, if the
Houthis don’t withdraw, also may mark the
first major street-to-street urban fighting
for the Saudi-led coalition, which can be
deadly for both combatants and civilians
alike.
Before dawn Wednesday, convoys of vehi-
cles appeared to be heading toward the
rebel-held city on the Red Sea, according to
videos posted on social media. The sound of
heavy, sustained gunfire clearly could be
REUTERS heard in the background.
A man walks past a tug damaged by an air strike at the Hodeida port, Yemen. Saudi-owned satellite news channels and
Wednesday • June 13, 2018 27
later state media announced the battle had
begun, citing military sources. Houthi
media did not immediately report the attack.
Yemen’s exiled government “has exhaust-
ed all peaceful and political means to
remove the Houthi militia from the port of
Hodeida,” it said in a statement. “Liberation
of the port of Hodeida is a milestone in our
struggle to regain Yemen from the mili-
tias.”
Forces loyal to Yemen’s exiled govern-
ment and irregular fighters led by Emirati
troops had neared Hodeida in recent days.
The port is some 150 kilometers (90 miles)
southwest of Sanaa, Yemen’s capital held by
Shiite rebels known as Houthis.
Emirati Minister of State for Foreign
Affairs Anwar Gargash earlier told French
newspaper Le Figaro the deadline for a with-
drawal from Hodeida by the Houthis expired
early Wednesday morning.
The United Nations and other aid groups
already had pulled their international staff
from Hodeida ahead of the rumored assault.
Over 10,000 people have been killed in
Yemen’s civil war.

Puerto Rico issues new data on Hurricane Maria deaths
By Danica Coto
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico — Eight days
after Hurricane Maria devastated Puerto
Rico, Efrain Perez felt a pain in his chest.
Doctors near his small town sent him to
Puerto Rico’s main hospital for emergency
surgery for an aortic aneurysm. But when
the ambulance pulled into the parking lot in
the capital, San Juan, after a more than two-
hour drive, a doctor ran out to stop it.
“He said, ‘Don’t bring him in here, I can’t
care for him. I don’t have power. I don’t
have water. I don’t have an anesthesiolo-
gist,”’ Perez’s daughter, Nerybelle, recalled.
The 95-year-old Perez died as the ambu-
lance drove him back to southwestern
Puerto Rico but he is not included in the
island’s official hurricane death toll of 64
people, a figure at the center of a growing
legal and political fight over the response
to the Category 4 storm that hit Puerto Rico
on Sept. 20, 2017.
Facing at least three lawsuits demand-
ing more data on the death toll, Puerto
Rico’s government released new infor-
mation on Tuesday that added detail to
the growing consensus that hundreds or
even thousands of people died as an
Navarro voices regret for harsh words about Canadian leader
By Paul Wiseman and Rob Gilles
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — President Donald
Trump’s trade adviser Peter Navarro
expressed regret Tuesday for having said
there is “a special place in hell” for
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.
“Let me correct a mistake I made,” Navarro
said at a Wall Street Journal conference,
according to video provided by the Journal’s
CFO Network. “In conveying that message I
used language that was inappropriate.”
NATION/WORLD
A couple takes pictures of shoes displayed at the Capitol to pay tribute to Hurricane Maria’s
victims after a research team led by Harvard University estimated that 4,645 people lost their
lives, a number not confirmed by the government, in San Juan, Puerto Rico.

According to the new data, there were
1, 427 more deaths from September to
December 2017 than the average for the
Trump was furious after
Trudeau had said at the
end of a contentious eco-
nomic summit in Quebec
that he wouldn’t let
Canada be pushed around
in trade relations with
the United States.

said: “There’s a special

same time period over the previous four
years. Additionally, September and October
had the highest number of deaths of any
months since at least 2013. But the statis-
President Donald J.
Trump.”
The United States has
alienated Canada and
other allies by imposing
tariffs on steel and alu-
minum imports, arguing
that they pose a threat to
U.S. national security.
Justin Trudeau The move has been round-
ly criticized by Canada
and the European Union, leading to height-
ened tensions at last week’s summit of the
THE DAILY JOURNAL
tics don’t indicate whether the storm and its
aftermath contributed to the additional
deaths.
The Puerto Rican government says it
believes more than 64 people died as a
result of the storm but it will not raise its
official toll until George Washington
University completes a study of the data
being carried out on behalf of the U.S. terri-
tory.
The issue is clouded by the fact that the
federal government and U.S. states and ter-
ritories have no uniform definition of what
constitutes a storm-related death. The
National Hurricane Center counts only
deaths directly caused by a storm, like a per-
son killed by a falling tree. It does not
count indirect deaths, like someone whose
medical equipment fails in a blackout.
Puerto Rico began by counting mostly
direct deaths, with some indirect ones. Then
it stopped updating its toll entirely while it
waits for the George Washington
University study, due later this summer.
The death count has had political implica-
tions. Visiting Puerto Rico on Oct. 3, two
weeks after the storm hit, President Donald
Trump asked Gov. Ricardo Rossello what
the death toll was.
“Sixteen,” Rossello answered.
Group of Seven wealthy democracies — just
before Trump left for Singapore and a meeting
with North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un.
Trump’s top economic adviser, Larry
Kudlow, suggested that Trump saw Trudeau
as trying to weaken his hand before the
summit with Kim. Kudlow said the president
won’t “let a Canadian prime minister push
him around. ... Kim must not see American
weakness.”
Kudlow later suffered a “very mild” heart
attack, the White House said Monday, but
was in good condition.
