Commercial rents jump

Experts expect healthy economy will make vacancies rare
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
With expectations that the local
economy will continue to thrive,
real estate experts are projecting
commercial rents throughout San
Mateo County will remain high
due to limited vacancy — at least
for the next couple years.
Asking prices for office space
on the Peninsula, spanning from
Daly City through Palo Alto,
reached $5.95 per square foot at
the end of June, according to the
most recent report from CBRE, a
commercial real estate and invest-
ment firm. The figures show a 7
cent increase from the end of the
previous quarter, continuing grad-
ual growth over the past two
years.
A similar trend is noted in
research and development space,
or the environment preferred by
biotechnology companies, as the
average asking price per square
foot jumped to $4.15, amounting
to a more than 4 percent increase
from the end of the third quarter
last year, according to the report.
The rates are driven largely by
limited available space and
increased demand, according to
Colin Yasukochi, research director
with the service, who anticipates
such a swing to continue through

San Bruno seeking short-term rental policy
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
San Bruno officials agreed it would be
wise to establish some fees and taxes on
the short-term rental market, as coun-
cilmembers seek to regulate the sharing
economy hosted on websites such as
Airbnb.
The San Bruno City Council directed offi-
cials to return at a future meeting with a
proposal detailing ways City Hall can bet-
ter manage the online industry growing
increasingly popular among travelers,
according to Councilman Michael Salazar.
Though the potential rates are yet to be
determined, Salazar said councilmembers
agreed during the meeting Tuesday, July
10, it would be sound policy to collect rev-
enue intended to offset costs generated by
managing the rentals.
Salazar said the decision was driven by
recognition that the short-term rental mar-
ket is well established, and officials are
likely better off attempting to set guide-
lines for operations rather than banning or
allowing unencumbered operations.
“I think the sharing economy is part of
what we have to deal with, whether it is
room or car sharing, or whatever,” he said.
“And each of those industries generates its
own set of issues. I don’t think as govern-
ment we can ignore those things and hope
they self regulate. I think we need to mon-
itor what they are doing and assure they are
being responsible and not causing issues
Stabbing suspect arrested
Police in Redwood City last week arrested a
man in connection with a stabbing at a
Denny’s restaurant.
Francisco Legoretta, 35, was arrested on sus-
picion of attempted murder, according to the
Redwood City Police Department.
On July 5 at 6:15 p.m., officers responded to
a 911 call about a stabbing at the Denny’s at
1201 Broadway.
The suspect, identified as Legoretta, was
located as he was exiting the restaurant and was
taken into custody without incident.
A victim, identified as a 22-year-old man,
was located on the floor inside the restaurant.

in the neighborhoods they operate in.”
Going into the meeting, officials faced
prohibiting the rentals entirely, capping
the amount allowed throughout the city or
in certain neighborhoods, requiring the
host to be present or a variety of other
restrictions, according to the report.
The issue was not slated for action
Tuesday, and officials will return with a
report detailing potential fee and tax rates
at a later meeting.
Assuming councilmembers elect to allow
the industry to exist with limitations, tak-
ing the lead from other nearby cities which
have ramped up their hotel tax collection
to finance enforcement would be advisable,
according to a city report. Establishing a
business license tax and permitting fee
may be in order as well, according to the
report.
A consultant found of San Bruno’s rough-
ly 14,000 total units, about 79 total rooms
are available online for short-term rentals,
and about 15 houses. The daily average
room rate is about $102 and the daily house
rental rate is $262.

the fee required when a traveler stays
overnight in a San Bruno hotel room, the
city should expect to generate about
$212, 000 annually, according to the
report.
Salazar said the income would go to help-
ing finance enforcement of community
concerns generated by visitors staying
overnight in neighborhoods. Most com-
monly he said the frustrations reported due
to the short-term rental market include
parking or traffic complaints.
“We have seen some issues with unruly
guests causing concerns but, beyond those
extreme examples, it does tend to generate
extra traffic and parking. And a lot of our
neighborhoods are impacted by parking.
So we are just looking at those issues in
general,” he said.
Salazar acknowledged while the issue is
not a great public nuisance, officials would
like to establish some restrictions out of
an abundance of caution preventing further
problems.
“There is a limited amount of concern and
we are definitely interested in looking at
short-term rentals,” he said. “So we want

to keep our fingers on the pulse of what is
happening.”
In other business, officials agreed to fur-
ther examine hiking fees for parking vio-
lations in an additional effort to address
neighborhood concerns.
Councilmembers directed Salazar and
Councilman Marty Medina to form a sub-
committee looking at parking violations,
and they will return later to their col-
leagues with a recommendation for increas-
ing the fines.
The city’s fee schedule has not been
updated since 2010, and has fallen behind
the amounts charged in neighboring cities,
according to a staff report. The average
parking violation costs about $38 in San
Bruno, while costs in other nearby cities
range between $40 and $48.
To stay current, councilmembers could
hike the baseline fee by $2 and fines for
more serious violations could increase
more significantly. For example, parking
on a sidewalk, double parking, impeding
street cleaning or passing a 72-hour limit
could jump from $38 to $60, according to
the report. Ultimately, officials are gener-
ally authorized to set parking violation
fees at any amount up to $100, according
to the report.
Salazar said considering the time lapsed
since San Bruno has last raised its fees, an
update may be in order.
“We haven’t looked at those fines since
2010, so they are about due for a refresh,”
he said.
Generally, mountain lions are calm, quiet
and elusive, according to animal experts.
They are most commonly found in areas with
plentiful prey and adequate cover — condi-
tions that exist in mountain subdivisions,
urban fringes and open spaces.
If a person sees a mountain lion, the first
rule is not to approach the animal, animal
experts say. Most mountain lions will try to
avoid a confrontation if people give them a
way to escape.

Feinstein remains favorite in Senate race despite snub
By Michael Blood
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES — California’s forgotten
U.S. Senate candidate has finally had a mem-
orable moment.
Kevin de Leon, a sparsely known liberal
legislator trying to oust U.S. Sen. Dianne
Feinstein, staged an insider coup Saturday by
winning the endorsement of state
Democratic Party leaders.
The embarrassing snub to Feinstein was a
testament to the leftward shift of California
Democratic activists in the age of President
Donald Trump, highlighting a long-running
split between the party establishment and its
restive liberal wing.
But the benefit of de Leon’s star turn —
occurring at a time when voters are thinking
about the beach and barbeques, not the ballot
box — is likely to be fleeting.
It’s “the strongest signal yet of just how
far to the left California’s Democratic
activists have moved, how emboldened they
are by their party’s dominance in the state
and how much the Trump presidency has
polarized our politics,” said University of
California, San Diego political scientist
Thad Kousser.
“But it’s only a signal about the party’s
most activist core, not a sign that everyday
Deadly fire shuts down key route to Yosemite National Park

MARIPOSA — A wildfire that killed a

Diane Feinstein always earned the strong
support of activists while
remaining a virtual unknown to the average
California voter.”
So far, the state senator’s challenge to the
more moderate Feinstein has been largely an
annoyance for his fellow Democrat, rather
than a threat to her winning a fifth, full term.
In the June primary Feinstein trounced de
Leon, carrying every county in the state
while he finished a distant second and strug-
gled to break into double digits. California’s
primary system sends only the two highest
vote-getters to the general election, regard-
less of party.
With the endorsement from the state
party’s roughly 360-member executive
board, de Leon will benefit from party
money, volunteers and organizing help.
But he remains a long shot.
Feinstein is an institution in California
politics, while de Leon remains largely

De Leon fired out a fundraising appeal
Sunday, highlighting his endorsement. He
said the vote showed his campaign is a “real

Feinstein, who is 85.
“It’s time for a new generation of leader-
ship who will roll up their sleeves and fight
to advance a bold agenda,” he said.
With only two Democrats on the ballot in
November, de Leon’s challenge will be
attracting support from beyond his liberal

support for universal health care, fighting
climate change and recently called for abol-
ishing the Immigration and Customs

Evacuations also were ordered in rural

stretch of State Route 140 into Yosemite was
closed, and motorists were urged to find
alternate routes.

overhauling the health care system might
give pause to moderate and independent vot-
ers de Leon needs to mount a credible chal-
lenge.
That rift in the national party’s direction
— and the risk that comes with it — was
summed up in a speech last week by Delaware
Democratic Sen. Chris Coons, who warned
that Democrats need to stress pragmatic
ideas, not “pie-in-the-sky” promises. He
cautioned against proposals “that might
sound great in a tweet, like free college and
free health care.”
De Leon’s endorsement follows the victory
last month of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, a
28-year-old political novice running on a
liberal platform, over longtime U.S. Rep.
Joseph Crowley in New York.
The deep split in the party was witnessed in
the 2016 presidential contest between
Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders. And in
the California party, liberal favorite
Kimberly Ellis nearly captured the organiza-
tion’s top job last year.
Longtime Democratic National Committee
member Bob Mulholland noted that in 1990,
when Feinstein was running for governor,
the state party endorsed a rival Democrat,
John Van de Kamp. Feinstein went on to win
the Democratic primary, but ultimately lost
to Republican Pete Wilson.
Varney’s body likely won’t be retrieved
until Monday at the earliest because it’s in a
“precarious location” and conditions were
too dangerous over the weekend, Cal Fire
Deputy Chief Scott McLean said.
The wildfire is one of several burning
across the state and among 56 large blazes
that are active in the U.S., most in the
American West, a region that is struggling
with drought and heat.
A blaze near the California-Oregon border
that killed a 72-year-old resident and injured
three firefighters was almost entirely con-
tained after burning more than 60 square
miles of dry brush.
Crews got full control over a stubborn fire
that scorched 142 square miles of brush and
destroyed 20 structures in Yolo and Napa
counties. Investigators said an electric live-
stock fence that was improperly installed
sparked the flames.

Kushner tenants: We
were pushed out for
luxury condo buyers
By Bernard Condon
and Garance Burke
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — The hammering and drilling began just
months after Jared Kushner’s family real estate firm bought a
converted warehouse apartment building in the hip,
Williamsburg section of Brooklyn.
Tenants say it started early in the morning and went on
until nightfall, so loud that it drowned out normal conversa-
tion, so violent it rattled pictures off the
walls. So much dust wafted through ducts
and under doorways that it coated beds and
clothes in closets. Rats crawled through
holes in the walls. Workers with passkeys
barged in unannounced. Residents who
begged for relief got a standard reply, “We
have permits.”
More than a dozen current and former
Jared Kushner residents of the building told The
Associated Press that they believe the
Kushner Cos.’ relentless construction, along with rent hikes
of $500 a month or more, was part of a campaign to push ten-
ants out of rent-stabilized apartments and bring high-paying
condo buyers in.
If so, it was a remarkably successful campaign. An AP
investigation found that over the past three years, more than
250 rent-stabilized apartments — 75 percent of the building
— were either emptied or sold as the Kushner Cos. was con-
verting the building to luxury condos. Those sales so far
have totaled more than $155 million, an average of $1.2 mil-
lion per apartment.
“They won, they succeeded,” says Barth Bazyluk, who left
apartment C606 with his wife and baby daughter in
December. “You have to be ignorant or dumb to think this
wasn’t deliberate.”
This up-close look at one of the Kushner Cos.’ largest res-
idential buildings in New York illustrates what critics
describe as the firm’s sharp-elbowed business practices while
it was run by President Donald Trump’s son-in-law and even-
tual White House adviser Jared Kushner.
The Kushner Cos. told the AP that it didn’t harass any ten-
ants to get them out. But the data suggest turnover at the
building known as the Austin Nichols House was signifi-
cantly higher than city averages for coveted rent-stabilized
buildings, leaving behind a trail of anger, disrupted lives and
a lawsuit to be filed Monday in which tenants say they were
harassed and exposed to high levels of cancer-causing dust.
“We’ve looked into hundreds of rent-stabilized buildings
and this is one of the worst we’ve ever seen,” says Aaron
Carr, head of tenant watchdog Housing Rights Initiative,
whose investigation led to the pending lawsuit. “The scale
and speed of tenants leaving, the conditions to which they
were exposed, provides a window into the Kushner Cos.’
predatory business model.”
In a statement, the Kushner Cos. acknowledged it received
some complaints about construction during major renova-
tions, which ended in December 2017, but said that it
responded to them immediately and that “tremendous care
was taken to prevent dust and inconvenience to tenants.”

Trump names E.U. global foe, raps media
By Jill Colvin
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
HELSINKI — President Donald Trump named the European
Union as a top adversary of the United States and denounced
the news media as the “enemy of the people” before arriving
in Helsinki on Sunday on the eve of his high-stakes summit
with Russia’s Vladimir Putin.
Trump and his top aides were downplaying expectations
for Monday’s summit as Trump continued to rattle allies by
lumping in the EU with Russia and China after barnstorm-
ing across Europe, causing chaos at the recent NATO summit
and in a trip to the United Kingdom.
Trump spent the weekend in Scotland at his resort in
Turnberry, golfing, tweeting and granting an interview to
CBS News in which he named the EU, a bloc of nations that
includes many of America’s closest allies, at the top of his
list of biggest global foes.
“I think the European Union is a foe, what they do to us in
trade,” Trump said, adding that “you wouldn’t think of the
European Union, but they’re a foe.”
He said that Russia is a foe “in certain respects” and that
China is a foe “economically ... but that doesn’t mean they
are bad. It doesn’t mean anything. It means that they are
competitive.”
Trump has been reluctant to criticize Putin over the years
and has described him in recent days not as an enemy but as
a competitor.
On Sunday, Trump flew to Finland, the final stop on a
weeklong trip that began last Tuesday. Near Trump’s hotel,
police roped off a group of about 60 mostly male pro-Trump
demonstrators waving American flags. Big banners said
“Welcome Trump” and “God Bless D & M Trump” and a hel-
icopter hovered overhead.
Chants of “We love Trump, We love Trump” broke out as
the president’s motorcade passed, and Trump waved.
Trump set expectations for the summit low, telling CBS
News, “I don’t expect anything. ... I go in with very low
expectations.” His national security adviser said they
weren’t looking for any “concrete deliverables.”
He also said in the interview taped Saturday that he “had-

n’t thought” about asking Putin to extradite the dozen
Russian military intelligence officers indicted this past
week in Washington on charges related to the hacking of
Democratic targets in the 2016 U.S. presidential election.
But after being given the idea by his interviewer, Trump
said, “Certainly I’ll be asking about it.”
The U.S. has no extradition treaty with Moscow and can’t
compel Russia to hand over citizens. Russia’s constitution
prohibits extraditing its citizens to foreign countries.
Contradicting Trump in an interview on ABC’s “This
Week,” U.S. national security adviser John Bolton said the
idea of asking Putin to turn over the 12 military intelligence
officials was “pretty silly” and argued that doing so would
put the U.S. president in a “weak position.”
He also argued that Trump is entering the summit with a
stronger hand because of the indictments.
“I think the president can put this on the table and say,
‘This is a serious matter that we need to talk about,”’ said
Bolton, adding that asking for the indicted Russians to be
turned over would have the opposite effect.
In the CBS News interview, Trump declined to discuss his
goals for the summit — “I’ll let you know after the meet-
ing,” he said — but said he believes such sessions are ben-
eficial.

U.S. official: Russia using social media to divide
By Geoff Mulvihill
ASSOCIATED PRESS
PHILADELPHIA — The U.S. homeland
security secretary said on Saturday there are
no signs that Russia is targeting this year’s
midterm elections with the same “scale or
scope” it targeted the 2016 presidential
election.
Department of Homeland Security
Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen spoke at a con-
vention of state secretaries of state, an
event that’s usually a low-key affair high-
lighting voter registration, balloting
devices and election security issues that
don’t get much public attention. But com-
ing amid fresh allegations into Russia’s
attempts to sway the 2016 election, the ses-
sions on election security have a higher
level of urgency and interest.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — President Donald
Trump’s lament this week that immigration
is “changing the culture” of Europe echoed
rising anti-immigrant feelings on both sides
of the Atlantic, where Europe and the United
States are going through a demographic
transformation that makes some of the white
majority uncomfortable.
Historians and advocates immediately
denounced Trump’s comments, saying such
talk would encourage white nationalists.
“The way he put this argument about
changing our culture ... about Europe becom-
ing less nice than it is, in other words, these
people are here and they are making the cul-
ture crappy and making the place lesser,
that’s straight out of the white suprema-
cist/white nationalist playbook,” said Heidi
Beirich, director of the Southern Poverty Law
Center’s Intelligence Project.

newspaper The Sun, blamed immigration for

gence officials are seeing
“persistent Russian
efforts using social
media, sympathetic
Kirstjen Nielsen spokespeople and other
fronts to sow discord and
divisiveness amongst the American people,

politicians or political campaigns.”
The conference of top state election offi-
cials she addressed was sandwiched between

intelligence officers alleged to have hacked
into Democratic party and campaign
accounts and Monday’s long-awaited meet-
ing between President Donald Trump and
Russian President Vladimir Putin.

years ago.”
Donald Trump Trump, the grandson of
a German immigrant and the son of a Scottish
immigrant to the United States, repeated his
contention at a news conference with British
Prime Minister Theresa May:
“I just think it’s changing the culture. I
think it’s a very negative thing for Europe. I
think it’s very negative,” he said. “I think
it’s very much hurt other parts of Europe. And
I know it’s politically not necessarily correct
to say that, but I’ll say it and I’ll say it loud.
And I think they better watch themselves
because you are changing culture, changing a
lot of things.”
Trump has never condemned Russia over
meddling in the 2016 election despite the
findings of all top U.S. intelligence agen-
cies, and the Kremlin has insisted it didn’t
meddle in the U.S. election. In the past,
Trump has reiterated Putin’s denials, but
this week he said he would bring up the
issue when they meet on Monday in
Finland.
“All I can do is say, ‘Did you?”’ Trump
said days ago at a news conference in
Brussels. “And, ‘Don’t do it again.’ But he
may deny it.”
Some of the state officials who run elec-
tions say it’s important for Trump, a
Republican, to take a tougher stance to
avoid having the public’s confidence in fair
elections undermined.

obligation to address it and, frankly, put

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — At the beginning of
2017, one of Julian Assange’s biggest
media boosters traveled to the WikiLeaks
founder’s refuge inside the Ecuadorean
Embassy in London and asked him where he
got the leaks that shook up the U.S. presi-
dential election only months earlier.
Fox News host Sean Hannity pointed
straight to the purloined emails from the
Democratic National Committee and
Hillary Clinton’s campaign chairman.
“Can you say to the American people,
unequivocally, that you did not get this
information about the DNC, John Podesta’s
emails, can you tell the American people
1,000 percent you did not get it from Russia
or anybody associated with Russia?”
“Yes,” Assange said. “We can say — we
have said repeatedly — over the last two
months that our source is not the Russian
government and it is not a state party.”
THE DAILY JOURNAL
that the actions will not be tolerated,”
California Secretary of State Alex Padilla, a
Democrat, said in an interview this week.
Some of his peers declined to go that far.
“I don’t go around telling the president
what to do, ” said Jay Ashcroft, the
Republican secretary of state in Missouri.
Trump portrays the investigation as a par-
tisan attack, but not all Republicans see it
that way. This month, the Republicans and
Democrats on the U.S. Senate Intelligence
Committee backed the findings of an
assessment from U.S. intelligence agencies
that Russia tried to interfere in the 2016
election and acted in favor of Trump and
against his Democratic opponent, Hillary
Clinton.
As part of that effort, Russian hackers tar-
geted at least 21 states ahead of the election
and are believed to have breached the voter
registration system in at least one, Illinois,
investigators say.
The Justice
Department’s indictment
Friday of 12 Russian
military intelligence
officers undermines
those denials. And if the
criminal charges are
proved, it would show
that WikiLeaks (referred
Julian Assange to as “Organization 1” in
the indictment) received
the material from Guccifer 2.0, a persona
directly controlled by Russia’s Main
Intelligence Directorate of the General
Staff, also known as GRU, and even gave
the Russian hackers advice on how to dis-
seminate it.
Whether Assange knew that those behind
Guccifer 2.0 were Russian agents is not
addressed in the indictment. But it seems
unlikely that Assange could have missed
the extensive coverage blaming the
Kremlin for the DNC hack.

Californians winning some online privacy Callagy, parking and
The Press Democrat
California will better protect resi-
dents’ online privacy after a last-
minute deal that satisfied the backers
of a ballot initiative to do the same
thing. This was a win for new rules that
give lawmakers time to negotiate with
initiative sponsors — at least the ones
with lots of cash.
Legislation almost always is prefer-
able to policy decisions made at the
ballot box. Lawmakers can amend and
update their work if there are unintend-
ed consequences, for example. They
usually hesitate to change what the
voters have wrought by initiative — if
a ballot measure even offers that
option.
And laws written by lawmakers tend
to be cleaner in the first place. Citizen
activism is valuable, but sometimes
passion leads to ballot language that
isn’t as thoroughly vetted as it should
be. And, given the high cost of getting
a measure on the ballot, the initiative
process is dominated by deep-pocketed
interests looking to write their own
laws.
Alastair Mactaggart, who earned a
fortune in Bay Area real estate, drafted
the online privacy initiative after a
conversation with a tech company
engineer left him worried about his
own privacy. He gathered enough sig-
natures to get on the November ballot
for what was shaping up as a very cost-
ly political battle until state legisla-

Another rant
Editor,
Letter writer Jorg Aadahl, in another
of his rants about the evils of Trump and
his supporters, again failed to offer up
any new ideas (“Trump, dictators’
favorite instrument” in the July 11 edi-
tion of the Daily Journal)
It is much easier to point fingers than
offer up solutions to difficult problems.
He forgets why someone like Trump got
elected in the first place. It wasn’t
because of the Russians.
A Wall Street Journal article awhile

the economic position of 80 percent of
Americans was either flat or fell.
Basically, both parties and the entire
governmental system failed 80 percent
of Americans. It was their frustration
that led to Trump’s victory.
And now, do we hear any new ideas
from the Democrats on how to improve
the lives of this 80 percent. No, all we

In doing so, they avoided that big-
money campaign and dodged any
potential headaches with a hard-to-

The privacy bill will allow people
to learn what information websites
collect about them and what those
sites do with that information. People
also will be able to opt out of having
their data sold. Call it California’s
version of the European Union’s
General Data Protection Regulation
that resulted in privacy statements
flooding email inboxes a few weeks
ago.
Such digital empowerment is wel-
come when the federal government
steadfastly refuses to side with con-
sumers online.
Tech companies were ready to spend
heavily in opposition. As part of the
compromise, the new law won’t take
effect for a year , allowing time to
review its provisions and discuss any
necessary changes.
The compromise legislation isn’t
quite as strong as the initiative it pre-
empted, but it calmed the waters. If
lawmakers try to undercut it too much,
a ballot measure could return.
Yet this issue didn’t sneak up on the

ballot measure and a looming deadline

Online shopping has a dark side

As a millenial in high school,
online shopping has become an inte-
gral part of my life. The possibilities
are endless, shipping only takes two
days and everything can be bought
with a simple click without leaving
home. Reading about the death of Toys
R Us, however, made me question the
beauty of online shopping.
When my brother and I were small,
Toys R Us was our paradise. We spent
hours wandering through the aisles,
gawking at new toys and gasping in
delight. When it came time to leave,
we desperately begged our parents for
ten more minutes.
While technology may increase effi-
ciency, it can also deprive us of many
genuine human experiences. The
familiar aroma of a printed book can-
not be replicated through a Kindle

to prod them into action.
June 28 was the last day for initia-
tives to qualify for the Nov. 6 ballot.
Once an initiative is on the ballot, it
can’t be removed or changed. However,
a state law enacted in 2014 allows
sponsors to withdraw their initiatives
if legislators agree to take action
instead.
The 2014 law also directs the
Legislature to hold hearings as soon as
any proposed initiative gets 25 per-
cent of the required signatures. The idea
is to avoid costly ballot fights and
poorly worded laws, but Mactaggart
didn’t prompt a hearing — and neither
did the sponsors of two more problem-
atic measures that also were pulled
from the ballot at the last minute.
One of those, sponsored by the soft
drink industry, would have made it
extremely difficult to pass any local
tax. It was dropped in return for leg-
islative approval of a 12-year-ban on
new taxes on sodas and sugary drinks
— the industry’s real objective.
Lawmakers also promised to continue
working on legislation that could let
lead paint companies off the hook for
hundreds of millions of dollars in civil
judgments, and paint makers withdrew
a proposal that would have shifted the
cost onto the public.
The initiative system was originally
meant to be a tool to empower
Californians to band together to act as
a check on government. Has it become
a tool that powerful, moneyed inter-
ests use to scare the Legislature into
doing their bidding?

Gas prices
Editor,
If the president wants to reduce the
price of gas in the United States, he
should consider doubling the federal tax
credit. This would help reduce the
demand for gas and also increase the
demand for electric and hybrid cars.
Also, increased volumes will help reduce
the price of these vehicles.

reat news that the San Mateo County Board of
Supervisors has chosen Mike Callagy to be the new
county manager. Callagy, currently assistant county
manager with outgoing County Manager John Maltbie, for-
merly served in the San Mateo Police Department for 29 years.
Those who know and have worked with Callagy know he is a
natural-born leader. The
expectation was that one
day he would be named San
Mateo’s police chief. Then
there was talk of a San
Mateo-Burlingame com-
bined police department
with Callagy as chief of the
northern city, but that did-
n’t turn out either. Instead,
he ended up in the County
Manager’s Office. Maltbie
is a hard act to follow but
Callagy is more than up to
it.

We visited over the July 4 holiday the Richard Nixon
Museum in Yorba Linda, where Nixon was born and is now
buried. It’s a must see. We wondered if the museum would men-
tion Watergate. The answer: a full and impartial rundown of all
the major events with photos, videos and TV tapes. The
exhibit includes the David Frost interview when Nixon almost
apologized for what he had done, how he had misled his
friends and supporters and, much worse, misled the country.
It’s a classic Greek tragedy with a tragic hero with a major
flaw. Nixon was brilliant, hardworking and really tried to be a
great president. He started the Environmental Protection Act,
Title IX, and opened the door to China. But he was paranoid
that people, including the press, were out to get him. The
Vietnam War led to the kind of protests which forced Lyndon
Johnson not to seek a second term and continued to plague
Nixon’s presidency. It led to the spying on Daniel Ellsberg
who had released the Pentagon Papers which led to the covert
actions and dirty tricks of “plumbers,” the uncovering of the
tapes, the firing of a successive number of attorneys general
(the Saturday Night Massacre) and the articles of impeach-
ment. Among other crimes, Nixon tried to use the CIA to
obstruct the FBI investigation and the IRS to have special
audits of those on his enemy’s list. The three articles of
impeachment: obstruction of justice, abuse of power and con-
tempt of Congress.
Still as the exhibit proclaims, the system worked. The
courts worked. Chief Justice Warren Burger, appointed by
Nixon and whom the president hoped would not let the tapes
be revealed and would pressure other members of the court,
instead proclaimed that no president was above the law. Judge
John Sirica was persistent at getting at the truth in the trial of
the Watergate burglars when he didn’t believe they acted with-
out higher authority. And the Senate did its job of checks and
balances while the newspapers showed how important a free
and vigorous press is to protect the Constitution and our
democracy.
After viewing episodes of Nixon’s early life (he received a
scholarship to Harvard but his family was too poor to pay for
travel expenses), how he ran for office and won despite not
having the personality and charisma often necessary but
worked hard to develop an effective persona; how he used the
anti-communist furor to further his political career; how he
ended up on the Republican ticket as Eisenhower’s vice presi-
dent but had to disavow taking campaign funds from rich sup-
porters to better his lifestyle by using his dog Checkers in a
famous TV talk to win the support of Ike and the public.
Then there was the failed attempt to be governor of
California and the famous press conference where he said the
press wouldn’t have Nixon to kick around any more. But
immediately, he started to run for president and succeeded
because of deep divisions in the Democratic Party — the
McCarthy, Kennedy, Humphrey split. How he won a massive
victory for re-election only to be outdone by his paranoia

Nixon. In fact, there were times I hated him but by the end of

U.S. trade, immigration and biofuel policies hit farmers hard
By David Pitt
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
DES MOINES, Iowa — Even before the
specter of a trade war with China and other
countries threatened to cost them billions of
dollars, American farmers were feeling the
squeeze from fluctuating crop prices and other
factors that have halved their overall income
in recent years.
The threat of counter-tariffs on U.S. farm
goods and the impact of President Donald
Trump’s other policies on immigration and
biofuels, though, have some farmers more
worried than ever about their ability to
continue eking out an existence in
agriculture.
“No matter where you look in ag right now,
you see storm clouds on the horizon and some
of those are a lot closer overhead than we’d
care for, ” said Chad Hart, an agricultural
economist with Iowa State University.
Trump’s tariff threats earlier this year
against China, Mexico, Canada and European
Union elicited quick retaliatory measures that
depressed the prices of certain U. S.
agricultural products, including corn,
soybeans, pork. When $34 billion worth of
tariffs against China took effect July 6 and
China responded with tariffs of its own, U.S.
farmers were already feeling the squeeze from
lower crop prices, higher land prices and
other factors.
The Department of Agriculture predicted
before the threat of tariffs and counter-tariffs
that U.S. farm income would drop this year
to $60 billion, or half the $120 billion of
five years ago. That projection is likely high,
given what’s transpired since.

Five years after declaring bankruptcy, Detroit reborn at a cost
By Corey Williams
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
DETROIT — It’s been five years since
Detroit bottomed out after decades of
decline, admitting in the largest U. S.
municipal bankruptcy filing ever that the
country’s one-time industrial engine could
no longer pay its bills.
The turnaround since then has been
remarkable, with major investments that
have brought new jobs, the rebirth of
neighborhoods whose best days were half a
century ago and the restoration of street
cleaning and lighting — services so basic
yet important to a sense of community. It
also cost some people more than others.
Jean Estell, 65, worked about three
decades in Detroit’s recreation and public
works departments before retiring in 2004.
Like other retirees, she lost part of her pen-
sion and all of her retiree health coverage in
the bankruptcy settlement with creditors,
and she’s worried about being left behind in
this new Detroit.
“I’m glad we’re doing better. I want us to
do better,” Estell said of the city. “But it
looks like somewhere or other they can find
some money and give us our money back. At
least some of it.”
Before the bankruptcy settlement, she
received about $2,300 per month. Estell
said she gets about $63 less per month from
her pension and now has to pay for her own

City, said he’s already seen a few neighbors
quit farming as they struggled to make a profit
even before the tariff battle began this year.

John Weber, who raises pigs and grows
corn and soybeans with his son about 100
miles northeast of Des Moines, near Dysart,
said many farmers’ budgets were already tight
going into this growing season and the
impact of tariffs has made it worse.
“Some were given the go-ahead for another
year, but boy, you start looking at these lower

tor visits cost more, too.
“I don’t go as often as I should. You get
sick and you suffer through it,” she said.
Given where Detroit stood five years ago,
things could be worse for the city’s roughly
670,000 residents, including current and
former city workers affected by the settle-
ment, said James McTevia, a turnaround
expert and managing member of McTevia &
Associates in suburban Detroit.

percent since early May to a 10-year low and
corn is down more than 15 percent. At current
prices, most farmers lose money on corn,
soybeans and pigs.
U.S. pork producers stand to lose more than
$2 billion per year because of plunging hog
futures prices, the result of the Chinese
retaliatory tariffs, according to Iowa State
University economists’ projections.
“That means less income for pork producers
and, ultimately, some of them going out of
business, ” said Jim Heimerl, a pig farmer
from Johnstown, Ohio, and president of the
National Pork Producers Council, an industry
trade group.
Agriculture Secretary Sonny Perdue has

profitability but he hasn’t specified how and
“Before Detroit sought the protection of
the courts to resolve its financial problems,
the citizens — who are the real people that
count — were in a lot worse shape than they
are now,” he said. “Before the bankruptcy,
the citizens were not getting the services
they deserved. They were having trouble
with water, sewer, garbage, feeling secure.”
Indeed, when state-appointed emergency
manager Kevyn Orr filed for Chapter 9 pro-
tection for Detroit on July 18, 2013, resi-
dential streets hadn’t been swept in about
three years and the city was well on its way
to tearing down thousands of homes aban-
doned during the exodus of more than a mil-
lion people that began in the 1950s.
THE DAILY JOURNAL
some economists are skeptical that the
administration can come up with the billions
of dollars necessary to cover losses.
“If this continues and the USDA does not
discover a way to helicopter in and drop
buckets of cash into the corn belt this fall,
then I would not be surprised if there are
tractor parades going to DC at some point in
the next year,” said Scott Irwin, University of
Illinois agricultural economist.
There’s no sign of a quick resolution to the
trade dispute. The U. S. and China have
threatened to impose 25 percent tariffs next
week on $16 billion of each other’s goods.
And on Tuesday, Trump announced plans to
impose 10 percent tariffs on an additional
$200 billion in Chinese imports by the end
of August. China said it would retaliate,
leaving even more U.S. farm products at risk.
Meanwhile, Trump’s hardline immigration
policies have been making it even harder to
recruit workers for pork producers, who have
historically relied on immigrants for a third
of their workforce. The industry had been
planning a rapid expansion due to growing
export demand from China and Mexico, but
the trade dispute and raids spring immigration
raids on a Tennessee meatpacking plant and
an Iowa concrete plant have worried pork
producers.
“Skilled and unskilled foreign workers have
been crucial to maintaining and growing the
workforce and revitalizing rural communities
across the United States. We need more of
them, not less,” Heimerl said.
The Trump administration’s willingness to
issue waivers exempting petroleum refineries
from having to blend ethanol into their fuels
has led to an estimated 250 million bushels
of corn going unused, which contributed to
lower corn prices.
With its tax base decimated, Detroit’s
faced $14 billion in long-term debt and a
$327 million budget deficit in 2013. City
workers, including police and firefighters,
had their pay cut. Employees were forced to
take unpaid days off.
Detroit emerged from bankruptcy in
December 2014, having restructured or
wiped out $7 billion in debt. The city was
forced to follow a strict spending plan and
has been able to build cash surpluses while
posting three consecutive years of balanced
budgets.
Weeks after Detroit was released from
active state oversight, Moody’s Investors
Service upgraded the city’s credit rating this
spring — the third upgrade in less than
three years.
“Since Detroit came out of bankruptcy,
there have been billions of dollars spent in
Detroit,” McTevia said. “People that were
once fearful in investing in the city just fell
over themselves to invest in Detroit. If you
go to Detroit now, it’s a different city than it
was five years ago. It has a different image
and it is a vibrant city.”
At Fred’s Key Shop, a family-owned
Midtown locksmith that has been in busi-
ness for more than 50 years, workers have
seen the change. Fred’s is a few blocks from
a year-old professional hockey and basket-
ball arena and a planned commercial, resi-
dential and entertainment district.
“We’re busier than ever,” said office man-
ager Bryan Knoche. “More people are mov-
ing into Midtown and that means more busi-
ness to be had.”

Hillsborough falls to Danville

Teams sets for showdown to decide Section 3 10-11s title
By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

UNION CITY — And so Hillsborough will

do it again — this time for all the marbles.
After advancing to the Section 3 Little
League 10-11s All-Star Tournament champi-
onship round by outscoring opponents by a
cumulative score of 28-1 through two wins,
Hillsborough found itself in a back-and-forth
battle against Danville in the opening game
of the championship round Sunday at Hall
Ranch Park in Union City.
Danville exacted revenge after getting
mercy-ruled in last Wednesday’s tourney
opener, handing Hillsborough a 3-2 loss via
a walk-off single by Mason Strope in the
bottom of the sixth inning.
“Coming into the game, we were feeling
very, very cocky,” Hillsborough outfielder
Luke Levitt said, “because the first game we
mercied them. So we didn’t play like we usu-
ally do.”
With Hillsborough having a game to give
after advancing through the winners’ bracket
of the double-elimination tournament, the
two teams will meet for the third time in less
than a week in a winner-take-all showdown
for the championship Monday at 6 p.m.
“We’re feeling great,” Hillsborough
infielder Nate Coughlin said. “I think we’re
going to be refreshed. I think we’re going to
clear our minds. I think the pitching will be
better, the hitting will be better — I think
everything will go well.”
Nothing seemed to be going
Hillsborough’s way Sunday. On offense,
Hillsborough left eight runners on base, and
had two base runners thrown out at home
plate. And while Danville managed just one
hit through the opening five innings against
starting pitcher Beau Schaffer, Hillsborough
pitchers totaled three hit batsmen, one walk

and one a strikeout-wild pitch, all of which
proved costly.
Danville capitalized, seizing on the game-
winning opportunity in the bottom of the
sixth with some timely clutch hitting.
With the game tied 2-2, Danville’s No. 3
hitter Dylan Deitsch led off with a single to
center. Then after Schaffer’s sixth strikeout
of the afternoon, Jack Yribarren followed
with a single to put two on with one out, and
knock Schaffer out of the game.
“Beau pitched a great game,” Hillsborough
manager Ben Coughlin said, “and we could
tell he was a little tired. He had lost a little
velocity but that’s understandable. He
pitched a great game.”
Hillsborough turned to ace right-hander
Anakin Manuel, who earned the win in the
tourney opener by shutting down Danville.
TERRY BERNAL/DAILY JOURNAL
After throwing two pitches Sunday, Manuel
looked well on his way to doing the same.
But after firing two quick strikes, his 0-2
offering hit pinch-hitter Tommy Carpenter
to load the bases.
“It’s a tough situation,” Ben Coughlin
said. “[Manuel] is coming in with runners at
first and second … and he just let on slip
away. It happens. I’ve got complete confi-
dence in him out there.”
Then Strope stepped to the plate, earning
the start Sunday after last Wednesday’s per-
formance when he entered off the bench to
produce one of just four hits surrendered by
Manuel in the opener. Strope upped his line
against Manuel to 2 for 2 by lashing a clutch
single to score Deitsch and set off a Danville

John Cynn goes the distance to
claim World Series of Poker title
By Regina Garcia Cano
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LAS VEGAS — The 2018 World Series of Poker champion
is an Indiana resident and professional player who barely
missed the cut for the final table two years ago.
John Cynn won the series’ marquee no-limit Texas Hold
‘em main event Sunday in Las Vegas, surrounded by a cheer-
ing crowd that included his dad. He eliminated Tony Miles on
the 442th hand of the final table, after playing 199 hands
just against each other with bricks of $100 bills and a gold
bracelet at the table.
Cynn, 33, became $8.8 million richer after playing
against Miles for more than 10 hours. He was visibly
shocked, grabbed his head and momentarily crouched as the
crowd roared after his win.
“Right now, I do feel pretty overwhelmed,” he said. “...
The money is very significant, but I do like to think that I
don’t need the money to be happy, but at the same time,
practically, it’s going to make things a lot easier, things I
want to do in life.”
SPORTS
John Cynn won the main event at the World Series of Poker
after playing heads up for over 10 hours in Las Vegas.
He told reporters early Sunday that the money will be “life-
changing” but does not have immediate plans to spend it.
Miles, a resident of Lake Mary, Florida, took home $5
million. He hugged many of his supporters after his defeat
and shed some tears off stage.
Cynn’s final king of clubs and jack of clubs was stronger
than Miles’, who went all in with queen of clubs and eight of
hearts. The community cards were king of hearts, king of
diamonds, five of hearts, eight of diamonds and four of
spades.
Each of the nine players who made it to the final table was
guaranteed at least $1 million. They represented the U.S.,
Australia, France and Ukraine.

players who either risked $10,000 or earned a seat through

Win No. 60 for Pacquiao
By Eileen Ng
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia — Manny Pacquiao won by
knockout for the first time in nine years to claim the World
Boxing Association welterweight title, and made a procla-
mation.
“This is it. I am back in boxing,” the 39-year-old
Pacquiao said after his seventh-round knockout of Lucas
Matthysse on Sunday. “I am not done. I’m still there.”
It was Pacquiao’s first bout since a contentious loss last
year to Jeff Horn in Australia, and since parting ways with
longtime trainer Freddie Roach to work with Buboy
Fernandez.
“It’s just a matter of time. You have to rest and get it back
and that’s what I did.”
Pacquiao (60-7-2, 39 KOs) knocked Matthysse down onto
one knee in the third and fifth rounds. He knocked the
Argentine down again in the seventh, and Matthysse spat
out his mouthpiece, causing a frenzy among Pacquiao fans
in the stadium.
“I am not boasting but ... I think he’s hurting from my
punches,” said Pacquiao, who hadn’t won by knockout

he’s scared of my punches.”

whole has attracted a record 123,838 entrants this year, sur-
passing last year’s record of 120,995 with one event still
left.
Cynn, a native of Evanston, Illinois, now residing in
Indianapolis, had previously cashed at various series tourna-
ments and barely missed the main event’s final table two
years ago, when he finished in 11th place and won
$650,000. This year, he started play on the last night of the
final table as the player with the second-most chips with
128.7 million.
“Different. Feels very different,” Cynn said, when asked
about his 2016 and 2018 main event results. “I mean, really,
neither is supposed to happen. To make 11th is insane on its
own, and then to win, that’s literally something that you
like dream of but you just never expect to happen. Last time,
when I got knocked out in 11th, I was really happy.”
Earlier in the night, Miles bluffed Cynn off the better hand
when he shoved 95.3 million chips, going all-in. Cynn
took about three minutes before folding. The broadcast
showed Cynn had two pair — including a pair of threes on
the board. Miles essentially had nothing, yet he reached
154.9 million chips after taking the pot.
About 90 hands later, Miles again went all in. He pushed
74 million chips, and Cynn eventually called. When they
rolled over their cards, Miles ended with triple sixes, while
Cynn had two pair, including a pair of sixes on the board.
Miles increased his stack to 182 million at that point.
“After the disappointment of losing, which there is some

happy that I’ll be able to help my family and do some trav-
eling and some stuff that I’ve been wanting to do for a long
time,” Miles told PokerNews.com after the tournament
ended. “It truly is a blessing to be here.”

Manny Pacquiao lands a right cross against Lucas Matthysse
in Saturday’s WBA welterweight title fight in Malaysia.
Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad attended the fight, the
biggest in the country since the 1975 heavyweight clash
between Muhammad Ali and Australian Joe Bugner.
“I would like to congratulate Senator Manny Pacquiao for
giving us pride and bringing the Filipino nation together
once more,” said Duterte, who flew to Malaysia for the bout
ahead of an official visit.
Duterte said in a statement that Pacquiao has proven him-
self again as “one of the greatest boxers of all time” and
that the win will cement his legacy in the sport.
Scores of screaming Filipino fans in the stadium waved
flags and chanted “Manny, Manny” throughout the match.
Pacquiao’s rise to fame from an impoverished rural child-
hood to become one of the world’s wealthiest sportsmen
over his 23-year career has made him a national hero.

Just 19, Mbappe joins Pele FRANCE
By John Leicester
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
MOSCOW — The ball skidded across the
pristine Moscow pitch and time seemed to
slow. This was Kylian Mbappe’s moment,
at just 19, to become the youngest player
since Pele to score in a World Cup final.
Did he hesitate? Did he wilt under the
weight of hundreds of
millions of eyes trained
on TV screens around the
world?
Mbappe doesn’t do
doubt.
With a touch as deli-
cate as anything seen at
the Bolshoi, he simply
Kylian Mbappe nudged the ball forward,
sizing up the goal. The
natural shot with his right foot from the
edge of Croatia’s box would have been to
aim right.
Too easy. Mbappe doesn’t do easy.
Instead, as cool as can be, he aimed left.
Game over.
Against a Croatia team that refused to
understand the meaning of “Give up,” with
tough, physical players who grew up in the
aftermath of the war that broke up the for-
mer Yugoslavia, it was clear when France
had first a one-goal and then a two-goal lead
that only a sledgehammer blow from Les
Bleus would put the Croatians down for
good.
And here’s the amazing thing: the truly
special teenage talent who landed it,
Mbappe, is just getting started. Just think:
At the next World Cup in Qatar in 2022,
France’s rough diamond will still be just
23. That is about the same age that Lionel
Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo were when
they began their shared 10-year lock on the
Ballon d’Or, football’s top individual tro-
phy that sooner rather than later seems

bound to have Mbappe’s name attached to
it, too.
At the US-Canada-Mexico World Cup in
2026, Mbappe will be in his polished
prime, at age 27. Book tickets now.
“My ambition is to go further. As far as
my potential allows me, to my limits,” he
said. “Winning a World Cup so young
opens other doors. Now, I have to keep
working. I’m only at the start of the road.”
Mbappe’s goal in the 65th minute made it
4-1 for France, effectively guaranteeing a
second World Cup victory for Les Bleus to
add to the first won by their greatest player,
Zinedine Zidane, and his teammates in
1998. Mbappe wears the No. 10 jersey as
Zidane did. That is Mbappe’s choice. And
that says everything about his deep well of
ambition and how high he is aiming.
Croatia did get a second goal in the 69th
minute to keep the final stretch ticklish
with uncertainty. But it was clear after
Mbappe’s goal that the match would end
only one way: With the blocks of French
fans in Moscow’s Luzhniki Stadium and the
millions watching back in France erupting
in a red-white-and-blue frenzy of joy.
As well as the gold trophy and the second
star Les Bleus will now forever be able to
wear on their shirts, there’s much for the
French to be proud of in this team. Like the
“black-blanc-beur” — black, white and Arab
— team of 1998, it reflects modern France:
multi-racial and made richer by its diversity.
“That is the France that we like: Different
origins, but all united,” said striker Antoine
Griezmann. He scored France’s second
goal, a penalty kick that was preceded by a
peel of thunder from the Russian night
skies that later dumped a rain storm on the
new world champions as they celebrated.
After scoring twice in Brazil’s 5-2 win
against Sweden in the final of 1958, when
he was just 17, Pele went on to win another
two World Cups with Brazil.
Continued from page 11
“I have a whole story to write,” Mbappe
said. “This is just the beginning.”
Paul Pogba and Griezmann, France’s two
other key creative players, also scored. Pogba
played a disciplined role in Russia, but his
natural joy was evident celebrating his 18-
yard (meter) shot, and leading the champagne
shower for Deschamps.
But it was Mbappe who put the match out of
reach with a furious passage of play in the sec-
ond half. In the 59th, a run from Mbappe start-
ed a play that ended up with Pogba on the edge
of the penalty area. With his second attempt,
the midfielder curled his shot beyond Subasic.
Griezmann scored from the penalty spot in
the 38th minute fully four minutes after his
corner kick was knocked out of play by Ivan
Perisic’s arm. The referee ruled it handball
only after a video review, just as the first thun-
ders claps boomed around the stadium.
“In a World Cup final, you do not give such
a penalty,” Croatia coach Zlatko Dalic said.
France took the lead in the 18th when
Croatia’s tallest outfield player, 1.90-meter
(6-foot-3) forward Mario Mandzukic, rose to
meet Griezmann’s free kick with the top of his
head. He deflected it past his own goalkeeper.
Perisic and Mandzukic both scored for
Croatia, first to equalize in the 28th minute
and later as a consolation goal in the 69th,
embarrassing Lloris with a flicked shot as the
France goalkeeper tried to dribble the ball out
of his goalmouth.
But the three-goal lead was too much for the
red-and-white-checkered squad that made a
habit of coming back at the World Cup — and
played three straight 120-minute games
before the final.
“We were dominant, we had control,” Dalic
said through a translator. “What we’ve had in
terms of luck over the tournament, we lacked
that today.”
Deschamps became only the third man to
win the World Cup as a player and a coach. He

joined Mario Zagallo of Brazil and Franz
Beckenbauer, who captained West Germany.
France’s captain 20 years ago, Deschamps
was lifted up by his players on the field and
flung into the air several teams and caught.
The normally staid coach did a few skipping
dance steps in the rain before stopping and
laughing at himself.
It was that kind of unbridled evening for the
French who won with an exuberance not often
seen in a mostly efficient, controlled title run.
Back home in France, tens of thousands of
fans headed to the Eiffel Tower to watch a
broadcast on giant screens that Paris police
closed the area more than two hours before
kickoff.
Two years ago at home, France flopped in a
European Championship final it was expected
to win against Portugal.
“But maybe if we had been European cham-
pions we would not be champions today,”
Deschamps said.
President’s club
Putin watched the game in a VIP section
with the presidents of France and Croatia,
Emmanuel Macron and Kolinda Grabar-
Kitarovic.
Macron paced nervously out of his seat dur-
ing the video review, and kissed his Croatian
counterpart on both cheeks to console her
after the game. They joined the medal ceremo-
ny and both kissed the gold trophy before it
got to Lloris.
Final goals
The two previous finals were 0-0 after 90
minutes before being settled with a single
goal deep into extra time.
Three goals in the first half was the most
prolific since 1974, when West Germany went
into the break up 2-1 against the Netherlands.
That was the final score.
The six-goal final was the most since
England beat West Germany 4-2 in 1966. It
also ensured the 2018 World Cup had only one
scoreless game, when France last played at
Luzhniki Stadium against Denmark.

became Wimbledon’s champion for the fourth
time, grabbing a lead right away against a
weary Kevin Anderson in the final and hold-
ing off a late challenge to win 6-2, 6-2, 7-6
(3).
“There were several moments where I was
frustrated and questioning whether I can get
back (to the) desired level or not. But that
makes this whole journey even more special
for me,” Djokovic said.
“It’s easy to talk now and look back at it
and be kind of grateful, but I really am grate-
ful to go through this kind of, so to say,
mixed emotions, turbulences as well, mental-
ly, moments of doubt and disappointment and
frustration, anger.”
It is Djokovic’s 13th major trophy, the
fourth-highest total in the history of men’s
tennis, trailing only Roger Federer’s 20,
Rafael Nadal’s 17 and his childhood idol Pete
Sampras’ 14.
But it’s also Djokovic’s first since he com-
pleted a career Grand Slam at the 2016 French
Open.
“It was a long journey,” the 31-year-old
from Serbia said. “I couldn’t pick a better
place, to be honest, in the tennis world to
peak and to make a comeback.”
A year ago at the All England Club,
Djokovic quit during his quarterfinal because
of the elbow, then took the rest of 2017 off.
After the operation in February, Djokovic’s
results were mediocre. He realized later he
tried to come back too soon.
“I really was impatient,” he says now.
In April, he reunited with Marian Vajda, the
man who had coached Djokovic for years
before Boris Becker and Andre Agassi did.
“I always had doubt,” Vajda said. “I was
thinking really negative.”
They built “the new Novak,” as Vajda
explained it.
Retooled his serve. Made adjustments to
other strokes.
SPORTS
Still, Djokovic was so dispirited by his
upset loss at the French Open last month that
he vowed, in the heat of the moment, to skip
the grass-court circuit.
Good thing he didn’t stick to that.
Because he fell out of the top 20 for the first
time in more than a decade, the No. 21
Djokovic is the lowest-ranked Wimbledon
titlist since Goran Ivanisevic in 2001.
On Sunday, under a pale blue sky interrupt-
ed by only the occasional soft white puff of
cloud, Djokovic looked far more like a guy
who used to be No. 1.
“The first two sets,” said Anderson, who
played college tennis at the University of
Illinois, “Novak beat up on me pretty bad.”
Anderson could be excused for exhaustion.
His semifinal was the second-longest Grand
Slam match in history, lasting more than 6
1/2 hours until he edged John Isner 26-24 in
the fifth set. And that followed another
extended fifth set in his 13-11 upset of eight-
time champion Federer in the quarterfinals.
Anderson also blamed some nerves.
This was, after all, the 22nd Grand Slam
final for Djokovic, and the second for
Anderson, the runner-up at last year’s U.S.
Open and aiming to become the first South
African man to win Wimbledon.
He was so out of sorts, his strokes so off-
the-mark, that Djokovic gathered eight of the
first 10 games even though he only conjured
up two winners. No need for more, because
Anderson gifted him 15 unforced errors in
that span.
“I didn’t really find my form the way I want-
ed to,” said Anderson, whose right elbow was
massaged by a trainer after the first set. “Of
course, my body didn’t feel great.”
It was so lopsided for the first hour-plus
that spectators began pulling for Anderson,
likely in the hopes of getting more tennis for
their tickets, which carried a face value of 210
pounds (about $275).
Somehow, Anderson raised his game late
and nearly managed to extend the match, five
times standing just a point away from forcing
a fourth set.
Djokovic held steady on each one, then was
as superior in the tiebreaker as he was most of
the afternoon.
“You can definitely see the improvements
he’s made since coming back from injury,”
Anderson said.
By the end, Djokovic’s new serve had saved
all seven break points he faced. His ground-
strokes were a big reason he only made 13
unforced errors, while Anderson had 32.
When Anderson pushed a forehand return
into the net to end it, Djokovic exhaled. After
they shook hands, Djokovic performed his
personal ritual of bending down to grab a cou-
ple of blades of grass and plopping them in
his mouth, savoring the triumph.
He did the same after his Wimbledon titles
in 2011, 2014 and 2015. One key difference
on this day was the presence of two special
guests: The doctor who performed the elbow
surgery and Djokovic’s 3-year-old son,
Stefan, who was in the stands for the trophy
presentation.
Later, they met in a hallway, and Djokovic
knelt down to hug his child.
“It feels amazing,” Djokovic said, “because
for the first time in my life, I have someone
screaming ‘Daddy! Daddy!’“
As much as Djokovic is known for his
body-bending defense and unerring reads on
opponents’ serves, he’s also someone who
fills his matches with histrionics and exag-
gerated reactions, whether violently smack-
ing the side of his shoe with his racket — as
he did against Nadal in their thrilling five-set
semifinal that began Friday and ended
Saturday — or tearing off his shirt to cele-
brate a victory.
This day was no different. Angered by fans
making noise during points, he told the chair
umpire to tell them to shut up, throwing a col-
orful word into the demand. He pointed to his
ear after winning one point, as if to say:
“Who are you cheering for now?!” He blew a
kiss toward the stands after another.
But when he broke Anderson for the second
time in three service games at the outset,
Djokovic simply shook a clenched fist while
calmly looking at his guest box above the
scoreboard. The bright yellow digits on there
showed that Djokovic already led 4-1 after all
of 18 minutes.
Might as well have declared him the cham-
pion, right then and there.

Porte crashes out

ROUBAIX, France — Richie Porte sat on
the pavement grasping his right shoulder
and grimacing in pain. A fan helped Chris
Froome get going after he tumbled onto
grass lining the road. Romain Bardet recov-
ered from three punctured tires.
And they were only the highest-profile
riders to face mishaps in
the action-packed cob-
blestoned Stage 9 of the
Tour de France on Sunday.
Every cyclist who
reached the finish was
covered in dust — many
with their jerseys torn to
shreds from crashes.
Spanish rider Gorka
Richie Porte Izaguirre had the unusual
experience of his rear wheel buckling to the
point that it looked like something out of a
scrap heap.
John Degenkolb won a three-man sprint
to take victory in a memorable stage, while
overall contender Porte crashed out of the
race.
Yellow-jersey holder Greg Van Avermaet
crossed second and increased his overall
lead to 43 seconds ahead of Geraint Thomas,
a teammate of Froome’s at Sky. Yves
Lampaert of Quick-Step finished third.
“It was a pretty hectic day,” Van Avermaet
said after the dust settled.
Added Thomas, “It was just hard all day
from kilometer zero. You’ve got to be in the
right position but you also need the luck
because it’s easy to puncture or get caught
up in something.”
Froome, the four-time champion, crossed
in the main pack, 27 seconds behind, over-
coming a crash with 28 miles to go that saw
him go over the top of teammate Gianni
Moscon.

’Hotel Transylvania 3’ tops charts
By Lindsay Bahr
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES — “Hotel Transylvania 3: Summer
Vacation” has checked into the No. 1 spot at the box office
in its opening weekend and left the Dwayne “The Rock”
Johnson action thriller, “Skyscraper,” in the dust.
Sony Pictures estimated Sunday that the animated family
movie earned $44.1 million from North American theaters.
As the first in the franchise to open in the summer, it’s just
slightly under the previous installment’s $48.5 million
debut in September 2015.
Worldwide, “Hotel Transylvania 3” has already earned
more than $100 million.
“It’s really terrific,” said Adrian Smith, Sony’s head of
domestic distribution. “We’re positioned to take advantage
of the valuable summer weekdays and there are six weeks of
summer left.”
The successful series has grossed over $900 million
worldwide to date.
Going into the weekend, experts expected a three-way

the foreseeable future.
“We are faced with a situation where there is not much
land available for expansion for commercial properties. So
if demand remains strong, as we believe it will, vacancy
rates will come down even further,” he said.
Rick Knauf, executive managing director with Colliers
International, echoed a similar sentiment, especially as it
relates to key commercial corridors near public transporta-
tion lines throughout central San Mateo County.
“The momentum in the downtown cores continues to keep
moving in a very positive direction,” he said.
He noted desirable job centers such as Burlingame, San
Mateo and Redwood City as those most likely to see con-
tinued growth in their rents.
The report supports such a perspective, as the average
square foot of class A office space in San Mateo costs $5.95,
according to the report. The rate reaches $6. 50 in
Burlingame and Redwood City, which are the most expen-
sive in the central segment of the county.
Knauf said the desirability of such markets is driven large-
ly by the easy access from Caltrain, as workers at tech firms
or other companies occupying downtown prefer short trips
from the train station to work.
He said the trend was established in recent years, and has
gained steam since.
“The dynamic has taken place and picked up momentum,”
he said.
The highest asking price in San Mateo County is found in
Menlo Park, where premier office space is sought at $10.50
per square foot. Menlo Park’s office market is bolstered by
the venture capital firm cluster populating Sand Hill Road.
Neighboring Palo Alto is home to the second most expen-
sive class A market on the Peninsula, as the asking price per
square foot ticks down to $9.71. Throughout the region, the
average asking price for similar spaces is $6.73, according
to the report.

“They are buying industrial properties and knocking them

end of Central Park, residents advo-
cated for additional ground-floor
retail to make the sidewalk more
active, better markings for the paseo
and a corner plaza on the south end of
the site when it was reviewed at a Park
and Recreation Commission meeting
Feb. 5, 2014. The plans now include
4,000 more square feet of retail space
along the intersection of San Mateo
Drive and Fifth Avenue, two angled
glass corner towers to invite pedestri-
ans into the paseo and sidewalk land-
scaping, such as planters and cafe
tables, at the retail corner of the proj-
ect to complement the park, according
to the report.
Though the entrance and exit of a
236-car parking garage were original-
ly planned for Fifth Avenue, they
have been moved to the alley between
Fourth and Fifth avenues in response
to concerns about the garage’s impact
on the pedestrian experience, accord-
ing to the report. With one level of
below-ground parking and additional
parking on the second and third
floors, the top three floors of the
project are expected to provide a
range of one- to three-bedroom apart-
ments, of which 10 percent will be
affordable to households at a very-
low level. The development is set to
provide 139 more parking spaces
than the 97-spot existing lot, accord-
ing to the plans.
Submitted in October, the revised
plans may be met with less resistance
after the developer stepped back from
pushing the maximum of the city’s
Measure P height limitations. The
voter-approved measure would have
required City Council approval and a
public benefit for buildings taller than
55 feet. Now that the project has been
reviewed by the Park and Recreation
Commission, officials will focus on
gathering input on the project’s envi-
ronmental review before the Planning
Commission makes a decision.
Traffic concerns
For Central Neighborhood resident
Laurie Watanuki, concerns about how
the project will contribute to the
increased congestion she’s observed
on Fifth Avenue and other nearby east-
west streets like Fourth and Third
avenues loomed large. Watanuki said
she attended the Dec. 6 Park and
Recreation Commission meeting to
better understand how the parking
provided at the site and at a under-
ground parking garage discussed on
the northern end of Central Park would
affect traffic between Highway 101
and the project location.
Watanuki said traffic studies com-
pleted when a 65, 625-square-foot
office and residential building at 405
E. Fourth Ave. was approved in recent
years made her concerned about the
number of traffic accidents logged in
the area bordered by Highway 101,
the Caltrain tracks and Third and Fifth
avenues. With more commuters pass-
ing through the area to get to new des-
tinations like the Essex project and
other office developments, Watanuki
wondered whether enough is being
done to increase the capacity of
Caltrain and incentivize commuters
to use alternative modes of trans-
portation, which she thought could
help reduce congestion.
“Whatever you can do to keep Fifth
Avenue more pedestrian- and bike-ori-
ented, the better off you are,” she
said.
Development
interest downtown
Downtown San Mateo has attracted
a variety of development proposals
LOCAL
in recent years, including a proposal
to build a four- and five-story mixed-
use building at the Trag’s Market site
at 303 Baldwin Ave. and a four-story
office building with 23 residential
units where the Kentucky Fried
Chicken restaurant and three industri-
al buildings stand at the intersection
of East Third Avenue and South
Claremont Street.
The Planning Commission’s dis-
cussion of the project also comes
months after city officials approved
in March a master plan for Central
Park, which sought to establish a
vision for improvements and new
amenities the park and included meas-
ures to preserve long-standing fea-
tures like the Japanese Garden and
rose garden and new resources such as
a new plaza and community building
for events along Fifth Avenue and
additional picnic tables.
Implementation of the plan will
depend on when funding becomes
available, but among the ideas dis-
cussed at length during the park plan-
ning process was the possibility of
removing three of the six tennis
courts at Central Park and building
two at Beresford Park to make way for
a plaza along Fifth Avenue.

Neighbors planning to fight over

access to gated Santa Cruz beach
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SANTA CRUZ — A neighborhood group
in California rejected a potential compro-
mise that would have allowed public access
to a gated beach popular with surfers and nud-
ists that it charges a fee to use, saying it is
willing to take the fight to court instead.
Santa Cruz County officials first allowed
the Opal Cliffs Recreation District to man-
age the beach that leads to a sandy cove in
Opal Cliffs Park 69 years ago, and it put up a
fence and began charging an entrance fee by
1963.
Elected volunteers who run the group have
since installed a 9-foot (3-meter) iron fence,
hired guards and charge $100 a year to enter
so-called Privates Beach near a winding road
dotted with multimillion-dollar homes.
The California Coastal Commission pro-
posed changes in line with a new state law
that asks it to consider not only environ-
mental effects but also the impact of its
decisions on underrepresented communi-
ties.
The neighborhood group on Wednesday
withdrew an application for the commission
to approve the gate and fee, saying it didn’t
agree with commission staffers’ recommen-
dations for free year-round access from one
hour before sunrise to one hour after sunset
and replacing the gate with a fence no taller
than 6 feet (2 meters), the San Francisco
Chronicle reported Thursday.
Mark Massara, a lawyer for the group, said
it became clear that the application process
was an effort to eliminate all the park’s
existing permits.
“What coastal staff is proposing is entire-
ly unreasonable, it’s irrational,” Massara
told the Los Angeles Times. “We’re confi-
dent that we’re acting legally and look for-
ward to future discussions with the commis-
sion.”
Regulators can try to force Opal Cliffs to
take down the gate and eliminate the fees
that they say restrict the public from the
famous seacoast. Residents say the fee pays
for beach cleanup and maintaining a wooden
staircase.
“This is the only public beach in

three people or more and motorcycles to
travel free while charging an electronic toll
for other drivers who choose to use them.
Whether two-person carpools and clean-
air vehicles ride free or discounted is yet to
be determined, as is a potential reduction for
low-income drivers.
While Managed Lanes will not officially
be voted on until the environmental review
is complete, decisions have and will be
made before then.
Several board members, for example, were
surprised and less than thrilled to learn that
they will only be choosing between no
project or express lanes moving forward.
Past alternatives, such as carpool lanes, are
now off the table.
Boardmember Karyl Matsumoto, South
San Francisco mayor pro tempore, also said
she’s “not enamored” with the project as it
exists and wished carpool lanes would be
installed first before making the leap to
express lanes.
The toll aspect continues to concern some
boardmembers, especially county
Supervisor David Canepa, who has been an
outspoken critic of express lanes.
“It’s always been an equity issue for me,”
he said. “I just don’t believe that people
should move to the front of the line [by pay-
ing a toll].”
While toll policies haven’t been decided
and prices would fluctuate, Leo Scott, a con-
sultant with Gray-Bowen-Scott, said esti-
ment and related highway infrastructure, set
policy and rates and pay for the operation
and maintenance of the facility, among
other duties. They’re also responsible for
liabilities.
The operator, on the other hand, would
manage day-to-day operations and mainte-
nance.
The board can create its own agency to
own and operate the facility or it could out-
source the operator role to the Santa Clara
Valley Transportation Authority. Another
option is to hand the reins over to the
Metropolitan Transportation Commission,
in which case it would both own and operate
the express lanes, per MTC’s policy.
“Everyone wants to maximize control and
minimize risk,” said Boardmember Doug
Kim, Belmont mayor. “You want agencies
with experience and a track record, which
points toward the MTC model. ... Frankly if
C/CAG were the owners I’d have concerns.”
Scott said if C/CAG would take on an
“observation and oversight role” if it chose
to hand control over to MTC.
“If you let MTC have it, they get the
whole thing,” he said.
That left some boardmembers concerned.
“I have problems with MTC being the
owner, ” said Boardmember Gina Papan,
Millbrae mayor. “We’d have one vote out of
eight and I don’t appreciate their familiarity
with our corridor. I’m not comfortable turn-
ing over control to them. I think it’s impor-
tant for us to maintain control.”
Papan added that she’d be interested in
knowing the terms of how long the owner or
operator would be involved.
Those decisions will be made in the com-

NOTICE! You have been sued. The court
may decide against you without your be-
ing heard unless you respond within 30
days. Read the information below.
You have 30 CALENDAR DAYS after
this summons and legal papers are
served on you to file a written response
at this court and have a copy served on
the plaintiff. A letter or phone call will not
protect you. Your written response must
be in proper legal form if you want the
court to hear your case. There may be a
court form that you can use for your re-
sponse. You can find these court forms
and more information at the California
Courts Online Self-Help Center
(www.courtinfo.ca.gov/selfhelp), your
county law library, or the courthouse
nearest you. If you cannot pay the filing
fee, ask the court clerk for a fee waiver
form. If you do not file your response on
time, you may lose the case by default,
and your wages, money, and property
may be taken without further warning
from the court.
There are other legal requirements. You
may want to call an attorney right away.
If you do not know an attorney, you may
want to call an attorney referral service. If
you cannot afford an attorney, you may
be eligible for free legal services from a
nonprofit legal services program. You
can locate these nonprofit groups at the
California Legal Services Web site
(www.lawhelpcalifornia.org), the Califor-
nia Courts Online Self-Help Center
(www.courtinfo.ca.gov/selfhelp), or by
contacting your local court or county bar
association. NOTE: The court has a stat-
utory lien for waived fees and costs on
any settlement or arbitration award of
$10,000 or more in a civil case. The
court's lien must be paid before the court
will dismiss the case. ¡AVISO! Lo han

formación a continuación.

May reveals Trump Brexit advice: Sue the E.U.
By Sylvia Hui
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LONDON — In the midst of a messy political crisis at
home over Britain’s impending exit from the European
Union, Prime Minister Theresa May revealed Sunday that
Donald Trump gave her this piece of advice: Sue the EU,
don’t negotiate.
A bemused May turned him down. But the exchange was the
latest example of the awkward dance between the U.S. and
Britain, with the two leaders attempting to put on a public
show of friendliness despite clear strains over trade, the EU
and their approaches to diplomacy.
Trump told reporters on Friday that he had given May
advice about how to deal with the EU that she found too “bru-
tal.” Asked in a BBC interview Sunday what that was, May
responded with an amused expression: “He told me I should
sue the EU. Not go into negotiation, sue them.”
With a laugh, she added: “Actually, no. We’re going into
negotiations with them.”
In the past few days, Trump’s first official visit to Britain
has been steered wildly off course by a series of humiliating
remarks he has made about May’s leadership — especially
her handling of the tense Brexit negotiations.
In an explosive interview with The Sun newspaper pub-
lished Thursday — just as May was host-
ing Trump at a lavish black-tie dinner —
Trump said the British leader’s approach
likely “killed” chances of a free-trade deal
with the United States. He said he had told
May how to conduct Brexit negotiations,
“but she didn’t listen to me.”
He also praised May’s rival, Boris
Johnson, who quit last week as foreign
Theresa May secretary to protest May’s Brexit plans.
Trump claimed Johnson would make a
“great prime minister.”
The comments shocked many in Britain — even May’s
opponents — and couldn’t have come at a worse time for the
British prime minister, who is facing a crisis over Brexit
from within her own ranks. Her Conservative government is
deeply split between supporters of a clean break with the EU
and those who want to keep close ties with the bloc,
