School parcel tax headed to election
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
San Mateo-Foster City Elementary School
District voters will be asked in the fall elec-
tions to support a $298 parcel tax which edu-
cators claim is necessary to balance a limited
budget.
The district Board of Trustees approved
Thursday, June 21, floating the initiative
onto the November ballot. The request for
voter support comes after a similar measure
last year was narrowly defeated.
Officials said the tax, which could generate
$10 million annually, is needed to fund essen-
tial curriculum, maintain school support pro-
grams and pay teachers struggling to afford
the expense of living locally.
“We live in one of the most expensive com-
munities in the nation. Skyrocketing rents
and the high cost of living have made it diffi-
cult for our teachers to stay in our community.
As a result, the district is facing high teacher
turnover rates, in addition to a statewide
teacher shortage,” said spokeswoman Amber
Farinha in an email. “This measure would
allow the district to provide teachers with a
living wage, so we can attract and retain great
teachers and improve student outcomes.”
The tax will require supermajority voter
approval to pass, and seniors can request an
exemption from paying. Polling conducted
earlier in the year suggested 69 percent of
voters in the upcoming election would sup-
port the initiative. An attempt to extend a pre-
vious parcel tax fell merely a percentage
point short of the threshold for approval.
The defeat resulted in the loss of about $7
million annually, which officials have since
scrambled to replace. To that end, Farinha said
the most recent estimation suggests the dis-
trict is facing a $5 million structural deficit.
LOCAL
Voter support for the coming measure is
imperative in the district’s effort to stabilize
its funding model, which is fluctuating
between a foundation based on state alloca-
tions and local property tax revenue, accord-
ing to Farinha.
Parcel tax money can fund operating costs
and programmatic enhancements, unlike the
district’s bond measure fund which pays
toward addressing campus facilities. Beyond
the tax being considered, the district main-
tains a perpetual $104 parcel tax passed in
1991 which generates about $3.5 million
annually. Tax measures have become an
increasingly common pursuit by local school
districts recently, as educators seek additional
sources of revenue to fill funding gaps left by
perceived inadequate allocations through the
state budget.
Districts experienced some hardship in the
most recent elections when pursuing similar
measures, as a parcel tax in Millbrae passed
while a similar initiative in the Belmont-
Redwood Shores Elementary School District
just narrowly surpassed a supermajority in the
most recent vote update. The San Bruno Park
Elementary as well as San Mateo Union High
school districts have examined future taxes as
well.
Beyond the personnel costs potentially
addressed with the revenue, Farhinha said the
tax will also be helpful in preserving existing
curriculum and beefing up supplemental pro-
grams necessary to keep local students com-
petitive in a modern learning environment.
“This measure would give the district a con-
sistent and reliable source of revenue to sup-
port innovative programming, enhance core
academics, protect art and music education,
and strengthen science, technology, engi-
neering and math programs to prepare stu-
dents for college and careers,” she said.

Lawsuits brought by San Francisco and neighboring Oakland accused Chevron, Exxon Mobil,
ConocoPhillips, BP and Royal Dutch Shell of long knowing that fossil fuels posed serious risks
to the environment.
U.S. judge throws out climate
change lawsuits against big oil
By Sudhin Thanawala
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO — A U.S. judge who
held a hearing about climate change that
received widespread attention ruled
Monday that Congress and the president
were best suited to address the contribution
of fossil fuels to global warming, throw-
ing out lawsuits that sought to hold big oil
companies liable for the Earth’s changing
environment.
Noting that the world has also benefited
significantly from oil and other fossil fuel,
Judge William Alsup said questions about
how to balance the “worldwide positives of
the energy” against its role in global
warming “demand the expertise of our envi-
ronmental agencies, our diplomats, our
Executive, and at least the Senate.”
“The problem deserves a solution on a
more vast scale than can be supplied by a
district judge or jury in a public nuisance
case,” he said.
Alsup’s ruling came in lawsuits brought
by San Francisco and neighboring Oakland

that accused Chevron, Exxon Mobil,
ConocoPhillips, BP and Royal Dutch Shell
of long knowing that fossil fuels posed
serious risks to the environment, but still
promoting them as environmentally
responsible.
The lawsuits said the companies created a
public nuisance and should pay for sea
walls and other infrastructure to protect
against the effects of climate change —
construction that could cost billions of
dollars.
The Oakland city attorney’s offices did
not immediately have comment. John
Cote, a spokesman for the San Francisco
city attorney’s office, said the office was
reviewing the ruling and would decide its
next steps “shortly,” but the lawsuit had
“forced a public court proceeding on cli-
mate science.”
“We’re pleased that the court recognized
that the science of global warming is no
longer in dispute,” he said.
New York City, several California coun-
ties and at least one other California city
filed similar suits.
California lawmakers boost
medical, dental payments

SACRAMENTO — Doctors and dentists
who see low-income patients on Medi-Cal
are getting a raise for the second year in a
row under a budget deal approved by
California lawmakers Monday.

than $2 billion for higher medical and den-
tal payments and to forgive loans for doc-

Democrat grabs narrow win
to take on Rep. Dana Rohrabacher
LOS ANGELES — In the battle for control of Congress,
one of the toughest fights among Democrats has been settled
by 126 votes: Businessman Harley Rouda will face endan-
gered Republican Rep. Dana Rohrabacher in November.
Rouda has been locked in a close match with fellow
Democrat Hans Keirstead for the second ballot slot in the
48th Congressional District in Orange County, California.
The top two vote-getters advance to the general election
regardless of party.
With all votes counted Monday from the June 5 primary
election, Rouda grabbed the narrow win in a large field of
candidates.
Rouda says he’ll be fighting to hold the congressman
accountable for his “reckless” agenda.
Keirstead says the tough contest shows Democrats can
stop Rohrabacher from winning a 16th term.
Rohrabacher finished with 30 percent of the vote, followed
by Rouda with 17 percent.

Republican sworn in to
replace recalled Democratic senator
SACRAMENTO — Republican Ling Ling Chang has taken
the oath of office to replace a California Democratic senator
who lost his seat in a recall election earlier this month.
Chang, of Diamond Bar, replaced Josh Newman of
Fullerton on Monday.
Newman defeated Chang in the 2016 election in a district
that had historically elected Republicans, giving Democrats
a supermajority to raise taxes or suspend legislative rules
without any Republican support.
He was targeted for a recall after voting to increase gas
taxes and vehicle registration fees as the GOP looked to end
the Democratic supermajority.
Chang served one term in the state Assembly and was pre-
viously a member of the Diamond Bar city council.
California voters to see two
housing bonds on November ballot
SACRAMENTO — California voters can expect to see two
housing-related bond measures on their November ballots
after the state Legislature on Monday advanced a proposal to
fund homeless aid.
State lawmakers voted unanimously to ask residents to
approve a $2 billion bond measure to house people who are
homeless or at risk of becoming homeless.
Lawmakers approved the money in 2016. But it has been
tied up in court because of a lawsuit that argues the money
comes from a source voters approved to fund mental health
services, not housing.
“The bill asks voters to clarify their intention that the
bond can move forward,” said Assemblyman Phil Ting, a San
Francisco Democrat who chairs the Assembly Budget
Committee.

Dems risk treading on Trump’s home field

By Jonathan Lemire
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Political rancor over immi-
gration boiled over into increasingly per-
sonal insults Monday, as President Donald
Trump took a harsh shot at a prominent con-
gresswoman’s intellect and Democrats wor-
ried that some of their own anti-Trump rhet-
oric might play into his hands and backfire
in November.
With language reaching belligerent levels
seldom heard since the 2016 campaign,
Republican tactics seemed aimed at least in
part at activating loyal supporters for the
midterm elections.
The issue of what passes for political
civility in 2018 has been eagerly stoked by
Trump, who has embraced the cultural bat-
tles playing out everywhere from restaurant
tables to football fields to late-night come-
dy. And the ejection of White House press
secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders and her
family from a Virginia restaurant over the
weekend symbolizes the public anger that
has tied Democrats in knots, leaving them
torn as to how to respond to a president who
defies the norms of his office.
Trump punched back sharply Monday after
Democratic Rep. Maxine Waters of
California told a crowd in her state over the
weekend that “If you see anybody from that
Cabinet in a restaurant, in a department
store, at a gasoline station, you get out and
you create a crowd, and you push back on
them!”
Donald Trump particiaptes in a rally for South Carolina Governor Henry McMaster.
Trump, always eager for a foil, tweeted in
retort: “Congresswoman Maxine Waters, an
extraordinarily low IQ person, has become,
together with Nancy Pelosi, the Face of the
Democrat Party. She has just called for harm
to supporters, of which there are many, of
the Make America Great Again movement.
Be careful what you wish for Max!”
Other Democrats quickly distanced them-
selves from Waters’ call to action, suggest-
ing it could endanger Democrats’ chances in
the midterms that could determine the next
REUTERS
chapter of Trump’s presidency.
“In the crucial months ahead, we must
strive to make America beautiful again,”
tweeted Pelosi, the House minority leader.
“Trump’s daily lack of civility has provoked
responses that are predictable but unaccept-
able. As we go forward, we must conduct
elections in a way that achieves unity from
sea to shining sea.”
Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer,
D-N.Y., said Monday from the Senate floor
that “the best solution is to win elections.
That is a far more productive way to channel
the legitimate frustrations with this presi-
dent’s policies than with harassing mem-
bers of his administration.”
Trump welcomes the fight, from the depic-
tion of his supporters in the short-lived
“Roseanne” revival to NFL players kneeling
for the national anthem, believing that us-
versus-them partisan issues fire up his base
of supporters. With the Russia investiga-
tion swirling and Republicans facing an
uncertain fate in November, he has further
abandoned any unifying powers of his
office, leaning hard into partisan warfare
while adopting an aggrieved stance to dish
out attacks that dominate the news and dis-
tract from scandals.
And while his rough rhetoric since his
campaign has given license for some of his
followers to engage in inflammatory acts,
the anger on the left has sparked its own set
of unruly images, further amplifying the
political divisions in the nation’s civility
war.
Sanders was shown the door at the Red Hen
in Lexington, about three hours outside
Washington, by the restaurant’s owner on
Friday. The press secretary tweeted from her
government Twitter account that she was
asked “to leave because I work for
(at)POTUS and I politely left. Her actions
say far more about her than about me.” She
used her press briefing on Monday, the first
in a week, to declare that Americans are
“allowed to disagree, but we should be able
to do so freely and without fear of harm.”

Looming question for Mueller probe: How much to make public?

By Eric Tucker
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — America has waited a
year to hear what special counsel Robert
Mueller concludes about the 2016 election,
meddling by the Russians and — most of all
— what Donald Trump did or didn’t do. But
how much the nation will learn about
Mueller’s findings is very much an open
question.

may end up wrestling with a dilemma simi-

Trump betting on
McMaster in South Carolina runof f
WEST COLUMBIA, S.C. — President Donald Trump is
going all-in for a South Carolina governor in a tense runoff
election, betting that his last-minute
appearance will help make the difference.
Trump was campaigning Monday for
Republican Gov. Henry McMaster in West
Columbia, returning the favor after
McMaster provided Trump with an early
endorsement in his presidential cam-
paign. Monday’s rally carries some polit-
ical risk for the president if McMaster gets
Henry tripped up in Tuesday’s primary.
Trump arrived nearly an hour late due to
McMaster weather conditions. McMaster was among
those waiting on the airport tarmac to greet the president.
Vice President Mike Pence joined McMaster at a campaign
event on Saturday and the president has deployed his massive
Twitter following on McMaster’s behalf in recent days. Trump
noted Monday that he was traveling “to one of my favorite
places, South Carolina, to fight for one of my original “fight-
ers,” Governor Henry McMaster.”
South Carolina Republican voters are choosing between
McMaster and Greenville businessman John Warren in a
runoff for the GOP gubernatorial nomination. McMaster
received the most votes in a June 12 primary but fell short of
the 50 percent needed to win the nomination outright, giving
Warren an opening.
Leak fight nixes Stormy
Daniels meet with feds in Cohen case
Stormy Daniels’ planned meeting with investigators
Monday in the federal probe of President Donald Trump’s
longtime personal attorney was abruptly
canceled just hours before it was to start
after an ugly, finger-pointing spat
between prosecutors and the porn star’s
lawyer over who tipped off the media to
the sit-down.
Daniels, whose real name is Stephanie
Clifford, was supposed to meet with pros-
ecutors from the U.S. attorney’s office in
Stormy Daniels Manhattan in preparation for a possible
grand jury appearance as they work to
assemble a case against Trump’s longtime personal lawyer,
Michael Cohen. But after several news organizations, includ-
ing the Associated Press, reported on the meeting, two prose-
cutors called Daniels’ lawyer, Michael Avenatti, and told him
that they were concerned about media attention in the case, he
said.
Avenatti offered to move the meeting to another location
and reiterated that Daniels — who he says has been cooperat-
ing with prosecutors for months — was ready to go forward
with the meeting, but they called back to cancel it, he said.
The meeting has not been rescheduled, he said.

But underlying the agency’s declara-

addiction.
It’s not that every kid, or even most
kids, glued to gaming screens suffer
from obsessive/compulsive Grand
Theft Auto. In fact, WHO researchers
say gaming disorder would apply to
just 3 percent of all video game play-
ers.
But no matter what form it takes, an
addiction corrodes connections to
family, friends, work and much more.
A line of cocaine, another double
whiskey, the next spin of the wheel
— alienates people from one another.
With the lure of the display screen so
prevalent today — the ceaseless bar-
rage of emails, tweets, texts,
Snapchats and, yes, games — some
people lose sight of the richness of
life beyond pixels.
That’s why a group of former
Silicon Valley software developers
and behavioral scientists are urging
Burlingame about the plan to allow
more cellphone equipment to be put
up in our city.
People are concerned that this new
equipment will be an eyesore. I am
concerned that they are a health haz-
ard to the residents.
This cell equipment emits electoral
radiation which is dangerous to peo-
ple, especially small children. I fear
that our attachment to these devices
will lead to a cancer cluster as they
did a few years ago at a student study
center near the science department at
San Jose State University.
What we have now is the G5 equip-
ment that emits a higher range of
radiation that will assault our bodies.
I don’t think this data is worth dying
for.
Residents of Burlingame should
inform the City Council that they are
concerned about this proposed cell-
phone equipment. All of us need to
be aware of the dangers of the cell-
phone equipment.

Human kindness
T
hree large words on a cardboard sign perplexed me
one evening last week: “Seeking Human
Kindness.” The sign was held high by a homeless
young man on the outskirts of oncoming traffic. It is not
uncommon for me to see homeless persons requesting
spare change on my commute home from work. Though, I
had not witnessed a sign requesting mere expressions of
solicitude. Resting my foot on the brake as the traffic
light turned red, I reasoned that he was looking for human
kindness in the expression of giving. Fine by me.
Confident in my assumption, I waived to the young
man, indicating that I would contribute. He smiled and
nodded. I then searched my glove compartment to find that
I was completely out of spare
cash and change. Embarrassed,
I quickly apologized as he
approached my vehicle. He
carelessly smiled and shook his
head, pointing at the sign.
Realizing I made a wrong
assumption about the young
man’s sign, I simply smiled
back. Raising high his right
hand, he gave me a thumbs-up.
Realizing the traffic light had
turned green and alerted by the
repeated honk behind me, I
pressed my foot on the gas. In Jonathan Madison
my rear-view mirror, I took
notice that the young man genuinely wanted expressions
of human kindness, regardless of whether such expres-
sions came with money.
I attempted to make reason of that experience all the
way home. Sure, the young man’s actions were a clear
demonstration of his desperate need for an expression of
human kindness. Could I honestly draw the conclusion
that he was the only person desperate for an expression of
empathy or compassion? Of course not. He was the only
person I witnessed willing to express it on such open and
vulnerable terms. I began to consider how many of us were
just as desperate for an expression of human kindness, but
choose to hide our desperation behind a routine smile, a
demanding job, make up or other material possessions.
The young man’s cardboard sign was symbolic of our
nation’s desperate need for human kindness. Don’t take
my word for it. Consider our nation’s enforcement of the
ruthless immigration policy separating parents from their
beloved children — an expression of human indifference
on a national scale.
Contrary to the widespread publicized finger pointing,
Republicans and Democrats alike share blame for the
enactment and enforcement of this policy. While I am
pleased to hear that the Trump administration took action
by executive order to stop the enforcement of this policy,
I remain concerned that the nation had to witness the ram-
ifications of this policy for an extended period of time.
Beyond this, I consider the endless cycle of war and vio-
lence — a stain on our nation’s history. America has been
at war since the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks. More than
240,000 reserve and active-duty troops remain in 172
countries, according to a New York Times article.
According to the same New York Times article, Andrew
Bacevich, a retired Army colonel and critic of military
operations, stated that “a collective indifference to war
has become an emblem of contemporary America.” In fact,
members of Generation Z — those born after 1996 — are
among the first to reach 21 years of age with our nation in
a constant state of war.
I consider the state of our nation’s political divide.
Embracing narrow ideology, relentless attacks on those
with differing viewpoints and widespread pessimism has
dominated our politics. Everything, it seems, is politi-
cized. David Graham, writing for The Atlantic, referenced a
study that showed an increasing number of U.S. citizens
are uneasy about their children marrying someone from
another party. This polarization is reflected at its core in
the alarming increase in independent voters, who now
make up about 42 percent of the nation’s registered vot-
ers.
If we are to change the trajectory of our nation’s moral
shortcomings, we must become like the young man hold-
ing high the cardboard sign. We must be willing to share
in a moment of vulnerability our collective need for
human compassion, rather than indifference. We can
express our need for human kindness with human kindness
itself. We can treat members of other political parties with
respect and decency. We can call on our elected officials
and demand an end to ruthless policies that have no moral
place in our nation’s conscience. We can even devote a
Saturday morning to assist a soup kitchen or homeless
shelter.
Believe it or not, manifest expressions of human kind-
ness have real and lasting effects on our society. If you
doubt that or need tangible evidence, look no further than
this opinion column.

Stocks skid as trade worries pull tech down

By Marley Jay
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — U. S. stocks
slumped Monday as investors
grew concerned that the technolo-
gy sector, a pillar of the long-run-
ning bull market, could be dragged
into to the broadening trade dis-
pute between the U.S. and China.
The Dow Jones industrial average
fell for the ninth time in 10 days.
Stocks sank after the Wall Street
Journal and Bloomberg News
reported that the administration
intends to limit exports of some
high-tech products to China, and
will limit investment in technolo-
gy firms by companies with sub-
stantial Chinese ownership.
Treasury Secretary Steven
Mnuchin suggested the invest-
ment restrictions wouldn’t be lim-
ited to China and the losses deep-
ened. The Dow Jones Industrial
Average lost as much as 496
points.
The market recovered some of
those losses after Peter Navarro,
one of President Donald Trump’s
top trade advisers, told CNBC
there was no plan for investment
restrictions and that the adminis-
tration’s probe into alleged tech-
nology theft is limited to China.
“We hear one thing one hour and
something that contradicts it the
next hour or the next day,” said
Randy Frederick, vice president of
trading and derivatives for Charles
Schwab. “Nobody knows what to
think or what to believe. It makes
it really tough to invest.”
All but one of the 72 technolo-
gy companies listed on the S&P
500 index fell Monday. Those
companies have done far better
than the broader market over the
last year and a half and investors
had considered them to be less vul-
nerable to tariffs than other sec-
tors like manufacturing.
Taxes by the U.S. on tens of bil-
lions of dollars in imports from
China, and retaliatory taxes by
China on U.S. goods, are set to
take effect in less than two weeks.

blown trade war, Frederick said

buybacks set record in 1Q
By Stan Choe
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Flush with savings from
lower tax bills and profits from a growing
economy, big U.S. companies are spending
a record amount buying back their own
stock.
Stock repurchases hit $189.1 billion in
the first quarter for the S&P 500, according
to preliminary results from S&P Dow Jones
Indices. That tops the prior record of $171.9
billion set during the summer of 2007, just
before the Great Recession struck.
The robust buying of their own shares
continues a yearslong trend where compa-
nies have returned more and more cash to
their investors through buybacks and divi-
dends. S&P 500 companies returned a total
of $1 trillion to their shareholders in the 12
months through March, the first time
they’ve passed that threshold.
Apple, Cisco Systems and other technol-
ogy giants helped lead the way. Apple has
traditionally been one of the biggest repur-
chasers of its own stock, and it set a record
in the first quarter by spending roughly $23
billion.
By buying their own stock, companies

Harley, stung by tariffs,
shifts some production overseas
MILWAUKEE — Production of Harley-
Davidson motorcycles sold in Europe will
move from U.S. factories to facilities over-
seas, the Milwaukee-based company
announced Monday, a consequence of the
retaliatory tariffs the EU is imposing on
American exports in an escalating trade war
with the Trump administration.
President Donald Trump has used the icon-
ic American motorcycle maker as an example
of a U.S. business harmed by trade barriers in
other countries, but Harley had warned that
tariffs could negatively impact its sales.
The European Union on Friday began
rolling out tariffs on American imports
including bourbon, peanut butter and orange
able in the market, which in turn allows
remaining shareholders to lay claim to a
bigger proportion of profits. Critics,
though, don’t like it when companies pay
too high a price to repurchase their own
shares, and the S&P 500 has quadrupled in
value since hitting bottom in early 2009.
Some critics have also been pushing com-
panies to spend more on investments and
higher wages for workers, which would spur
more economic activity, rather than return-
ing it to shareholders. That has been hap-
pening more slowly than many had hoped,
but things may be changing now that the
unemployment rate is at an 18-year low.
“You saw a lot of money in the last sever-
al years go to stock buybacks and dividends,
but with the unemployment market being as
tight as it is, companies have to make
investments to get more productive,” said
Ann Miletti, a portfolio manager at Wells
Fargo Asset Management.
Miletti expects companies to spend more
on software and other products to get more
efficient, which would lead to bigger profits
for technology and industrial companies.
More than a third of small businesses say
it’s a good time to expand, according to a
survey by the National Federation of
Independent Business.

juice . The EU tariffs on $3.4 billion worth
of U.S. products are retaliation for duties the
Trump administration is imposing on
European steel and aluminum.
The company said in a regulatory filing
Monday that EU tariffs on its motorcycles
exported from the U.S. jumped between 6
percent and 31 percent, adding about $2,200
per average motorcycle exported from the
U.S. to the EU.
The impact on U.S. workers because of
Harley-Davidson’s decision was not immedi-
ately clear. Harley-Davidson declined inter-
view requests Monday but said in prepared
remarks that the company “maintains a
strong commitment to U.S.-based manufac-
turing which is valued by riders globally.”

Personifying next-man-up Padres

By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Nicolas Lopez wasn’t immune to the

injuries that plagued the Serra Padres this year.
A standout left-handed pitcher who is
committed to play at Stanford University
next season, Lopez didn’t get the chance to
dominate on the mound in 2018 the way he
would have liked. Sure, he still posted an
impeccable 4-0 record, but a persisting hip
injury caused his innings to be limited as
the season wore on.
There was something about the next-man-
up philosophy at Serra this season though,
and not just on the baseball diamond.
“I think that was kind of the epitome of
our senior class this year,” Lopez said. “…
Just losing one guy, make sure it doesn’t
hurt. Just the brotherhood, honestly. Just
make sure the next guy picks it up.”
Padres football lost its star lineman Nio
Mafi, a Division I commit to Cal, and a slew
of other keystone players heading into the
playoffs and still went on to win a state
championship. Padres basketball at the
start of the year lost center Jack Wilson,
another Division I commit to Oregon State,
and still qualified for the Central Coast
Section Open Division playoffs.

Joe Bartels, but the Pacifica outfielder put a
crimp into Molise’s CG plans by knocking
a single back through the middle.
Jhomar Ronquillo and Cade Frost went on
to draw back-to-back walks to load the
bases, and force M-A to go to its bullpen.
And Pacifica didn’t go quietly, rallying for
four runs in the frame — thanks to a two-run
double by Mikaelo Osorio followed by a
two-run infield error — before M-A reliever
Trevor Cadigan notched his second strike-
out to end it.
M-A’s offense gave Molise plenty of
breathing room in the first inning. Before
the righty even took the hill, M-A put up a
four-spot in the top of the first, sending
nine batters to the plate.
Pacifica starting pitcher Lucas Macauley
actually pitched quite well despite the out-
come, controlling the tempo of at-bats by
speeding up and slowing down like a sea-
soned vet. He also flashed a dazzling
changeup, which not only helped him
record two strikeouts in the inning, but also
saw him nearly escape the jam unscathed on
a potential double-play grounder.
With one out and a runner at first,
Macauley induced a sharp grounder to sec-
ond base. M-A got the lead out at second,
but the batter Cadigan beat out the throw to
first. The next five M-A batters then reached
base, with Molise singling to right,
William Roberts shooting an RBI single to
left, Thomas Moldow drilling a two-run dou-
ble high off the center-field wall, and
Callum Flint putting a ball in play that
turned into a Pacifica error allowing pinch-
runner Logan Mills to score to give M-A a
4-0 lead.
TERRY BERNAL/DAILY JOURNAL
Pacifica National’s Lucas Macauley bunts for a
single in the third inning against M-A in the
District 52 10-11s tournament Monday.
Moldow enjoyed a monster night at the
plate, going 3 for 4 with five RBIs. Molise
added three hits. Bortles led Pacifica with
two hits on the night.
Pacifica — after falling to the elimination
bracket in a 9-0 loss to Foster City Saturday
— got its first run of the tournament in the
first inning on an RBI single by Bortles to
plate Macauley.
M-A added insurance runs in the third with
a three-run outburst. Molise led off the
inning with a single, Roberts followed with
a single, and Moldow teed off for an RBI
double. Flint then reached on an error,
recording an RBI as Roberts would have
scored on the play regardless. Anthony Van
Der Meer then batted home Moldow with an
RBI groundout.
In the sixth, Moldow capped M-A’s scor-
ing with a two-run single, but got thrown
out at second base trying to stretch for his
third double of the game.
M-A left fielder J.T. Anderson showed off
the finest outfield arm on the diamond
though, earning two outfield assists in the
game. His first came in the opening frame
as he backed up an offline throw on a play at
third base. The Pacifica runner attempted to
score on the play, but Anderson fired a
strike to the plate on a fly to cut down the
potential run.
Then in the fifth, Anderson turned in a

beastly throw to first base for the backend
of a double play.
Pacifica pinch hitter Andrew Callahan
opened the frame with one of the grittiest
at-bats of the night. Callahan arrived at
home plate before M-A was even done tak-
ing infield, and dug his cleats into the bat-
ter’s box right after Molise finished his
warm-up pitches. He never moved his feet
throughout the six-pitch at-bat, standing
firmly in the box between every pitch. That
includes a 2-2 pitch at his head, which
Callahan ducked, then promptly popped
right back up, never moving his feet.
Callahan walked on the next pitch.
Macauley followed by roasting a liner to
left, but Anderson was right there. And
catching the ball on the run, he fired to first
base in stride for the 7-3 double play.
M-A advances through the elimination
bracket to play Thursday at the Belmont
Sports Complex at 7:30 p.m. M-A will take on
the winner of Tuesday’s matchup between
Belmont-Redwood Shores and Half Moon Bay.
Four remain in winners’ bracket
Foster City, San Carlos, Hillsborough
and Palo Alto-American are the remaining
teams without a loss through the winners’
bracket of the 10-11s tourney.
San Carlos advanced with two slight vic-
tories, 3-2 over Belmont-Redwood Shores
and 3-0 over Palo Alto-National. In the win
over Palo Alto Sunday, left-hander Joey
Lorenzini fired a one-hit shutout — allow-
ing just a third-inning single to Gus
Soedarmono — before going the distance
and striking out 12.
Foster City has yet to surrender a run
through two games with a 9-0 win over
Pacifica National and a 17-0 win over
Pacifica American. In Sunday’s win over
American, Arjun Godbole went 4 for 4 with
two doubles and five RBIs. Rustam Fouret
and Mason Kang added home runs for Foster
City.
Hillsborough is riding two straight
shutouts as well, topping San Mateo
National 2-0 then downing M-A 10-0. In
Sunday’s win over M-A, Devin Firestone,
Luke Leavitt and Beau Schaffer combined to
pitch the shutout. Schaffer and Anakin
Manuel each homered in the win.
Palo Alto American opened the tourney
with a 10-0 win over San Mateo American,
followed by an 11-1 win over Half Moon
Bay, with Luke Souza recording two hits in
the latter.
Winners’ bracket action continues
Wednesday with Foster City taking on San
Carlos at 5 p.m., followed by Hillsborough
against Palo Alto American at 7:30 p.m.
Both games are slated for Marina Field at
the Belmont Sports Complex.

Lowrie’s homer in 9th lifts A’s over Tigers
By Noah Trister
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
DETROIT — Edwin Jackson figures he’ll
enjoy pitching for as long as teams are will-
ing to put him on the mound.
Jackson tied a record Monday when he
played for his 13th major league club,
allowing a run in six innings for the A’s in
their 5-4 victory over the Detroit Tigers.
Called up from Triple-A for his first big
league appearance of
2018, Jackson matched
the mark for most teams
set by former reliever
Octavio Dotel.
“It’s always good to be
wanted,” Jackson said.
“When I can’t find a team
that wants to bring me in,
Edwin Jackson then I guess it’ll be time
to sit it down. But until
then, I like to come out. I like to compete, to
have fun. I feel like I still have something in
me and that I can bring value to a team.”
Jed Lowrie hit a tiebreaking solo homer in
the top of the ninth. The A’s trailed 4-1 after
Detroit’s Nicholas Castellanos hit a three-run
homer in the seventh, but Oakland scored
three in the eighth off Joe Jimenez to tie it.
Then Lowrie connected for his 12th home run
of the year, barely fair down the line in right
field off a cutter from Shane Greene (2-4).
Lou Trivino (6-1) got the win in relief, and
Blake Treinen pitched the ninth for his 18th
save in 20 chances. The A’s have won seven
of nine.
Jordan Zimmermann pitched five scoreless
innings for the Tigers, but that wasn’t enough
to prevent Detroit’s sixth straight loss.
Stephen Piscotty and Jonathan Lucroy had
three hits apiece for Oakland. Piscotty hit a
solo homer in the seventh to tie it at 1. The
A’s have homered in a record 26 consecutive
road games.
The 34-year-old Jackson allowed six hits
and struck out seven with no walks. It was his
first start since Sept. 28, when he was with
Washington.
“For most guys, it’s tough to go to a new

MLB draft by the Detroit Tigers.
No.1 pick Mize
signs for $7.5M
By Noah Trister
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
DETROIT — No. 1 overall pick Casey
Mize agreed Monday to a minor league con-
tract with the Detroit Tigers that includes a
$7.5 million signing bonus, the highest for
any drafted player since 2011.
Detroit didn’t go into much detail about
its 2018 plan for Mize, but it certainly
sounds as if he’ll pitch in the organization
at some point soon.
“We pretty much know what we’re going
to do,” said Scott Pleis, the team’s director
of amateur scouting. “We’re going to figure
that out — how many innings, how that’s
going to work out, when he’s going to do it.
So all the stuff will be mapped out.”
Alex Faedo, a right-hander drafted by the
Tigers in the first round last year, did not
start his minor league career until this sea-
son. He’s at Double-A Erie now.
In 17 starts at Auburn this year, Mize went
10-6 with a 3.30 ERA. The 6-foot-3 junior
averaged 12.24 strikeouts per nine innings.
The Tigers took him with the No. 1 draft pick
earlier this month . His bonus in the highest
for a player since Aug. 15, 2011, when pitch-
er Gerrit Cole agreed to an $8 million bonus
with Pittsburgh and outfielder Bubba Starling
struck a $7.5 million deal with Kansas City.
Mize’s bonus is below his $8,096,300
slot value. In three seasons at Auburn, Mize
went 20-13 with a 2.96 ERA, 324 strikeouts
and 43 walks.

Sharks briefs
Dylan DeMelo denied qualifying offer
SAN JOSE — The Sharks have declined to issue a qualify-
ing offer to defenseman Dylan DeMelo, making him an
unrestricted free agent. The Sharks announced Monday the
team gave qualifying offers to forwards Tomas Hertl and
Chris Tierney. Those two will become restricted free agents
in July, giving San Jose the option to match any offer from
another team or get draft pick compensation. The 25-year-
old DeMelo played 63 games last season on San Jose’s third
defensive pairing. He had no goals and 20 assists.
Still some wiggle room in free agency
The Sharks are worth watching after they shed Mikkel
Boedker’s $4 million salary to clear cap space and watched
as Ilya Kovalchuk signed with Los Angeles on a three-year,
$18.75 million deal. After saying San Jose will spend much
of its space to re-sign players, GM Doug Wilson acknowl-
edged there will still be room to make a deal.
By July 1? Wilson smirked and said: “The fifth is my

Morocco was playing for pride in

De Gea was criticized after his blun-

But he proved his value to Spain in the
second half — first denying Boutaib a
second goal with a save at the near

Suarez scores again, Uruguay beats host Russia
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAMARA, Russia — Luis Suarez finally got
rattled at this year’s World Cup.
Sitting at the podium in the post-match
news conference following Uruguay’s 3-0 vic-
tory over Russia, a reporter asked him why he
often wore a sad expression.
Suarez tossed aside his translation head-
phones, then smiled broadly in defiance and
finally said: “What a waste of time. Next ques-
tion please.”
Other than that little blip,
Suarez has been on his best
behavior in Russia, scoring
twice as Uruguay swept
through the group stage
with three straight victories
— sending the two-time
champions to the knockout
round for the third straight
Luis Suarez World Cup.
Edinson Cavani also scored Monday
against the host nation, which dropped its
first match of the tournament.
Both teams were already assured of spots in
the knockout round, but Uruguay’s victory put
it at the top of Group A and looking toward a
match in Sochi on Saturday against Portugal.
Uruguay, which also benefited from an own-
goal in the first half, had its third straight
shutout of the tournament after consecutive 1-
0 victories over Egypt and Saudi Arabia. The
Uruguayans and goalkeeper Fernando Muslera
have not allowed a goal in any of the team’s
six matches this year.
“After winning the first two matches 1-0,
our goal was to get another,” Suarez said.
“We wanted to play the same we had before,
only better.”
By advancing to the round of 16 with victo-
ries over Saudi Arabia and Egypt, Russia
secured its best World Cup showing in the
post-Soviet era. But Uruguay — ranked No. 14
in the world — posed a far greater challenge to
the hosts.
Suarez, who seems to have put past World
Cup controversies behind him, scored with a
low shot from just outside the box that sailed
past the wall of Russian players and into the
right corner of the goal. The Barcelona striker
then blew a kiss to the national team’s fans.
Suarez is the all-time leading scorer for
Uruguay with 53 international goals in 101
appearances, including a goal against Saudi
Arabia last Wednesday.
But his two past World Cups have been
marked by controversy: He was sent home
from Brazil four years ago for biting Italy
defender Giorgio Chiellini. In 2010, he used
his hands to block Dominic Adiyiah’s header
and then celebrated when Ghana missed the
penalty kick. Uruguay prevailed in a shootout,
and Suarez was marked as a dirty player.
SPORTS
Uruguay took a 2-0 lead over Russia on an
own-goal — the sixth of the World Cup to tie
the tournament record. Midfielder Diego
Laxalt’s shot from long range deflected off
Denis Cheryshev’s foot and past goalkeeper
Igor Akinfeev.
Russia, the lowest ranked team in the field at
No. 70, went down to 10 men after right back
Igor Smolnikov received a second yellow card
in the 36th minute. Russia coach Stanislav
Cherchesov immediately took off Cheryshev
for defender Mario Fernandes.
Cavani scored in the 90th minute and was
taken out a short time later. The Paris Saint-
Germain forward put a rebound into the left cor-
ner of the net after Diego Godin’s header was
parried by Akinfeev.
“It’s important for strikers to score,”
Uruguay coach Oscar Tabarez said. “When
they feel comfortable or at home, they score
goals. Strikers contribute a lot to a team.
We know as we improve our game we will
offer opportunities to all of our players to
improve their game.”
Uruguay was making its 12th appearance at
the World Cup, which it won in 1930 and
1950. More recently, the team finished fourth
in South Africa in 2010 and made the round of
16 in Brazil four years ago.
Ronaldo misses penalty,
Portugal draws 1-1 with Iran
SARANSK, Russia — Cristiano Ronaldo’s
missed penalty cost Portugal first place in
its World Cup group on Monday.
Portugal finished second in Group B after
a 1-1 draw with Iran. The 2016 European
champions will next face Uruguay on
Saturday in the round of 16.
Instead of Ronaldo, it was Ricardo
Quaresma who scored for the Portuguese.
The 34-year-old midfielder responded to his
first start of the tournament by producing
one of the more aesthetically pleasing
goals of group play.
Quaresma hit a curling shot with the out-
side of his right foot from the edge of the
penalty area that went beyond the reach of
diving Iran goalkeeper Ali Beiranvand.
Saudi Arabia beats Egypt 2-1
VOLGOGRAD, Russia — The oldest per-
son to play in a World Cup match gave up a
pair of goals Monday, allowing Saudi
Arabia to beat Egypt 2-1 in a match between
two teams that had already been eliminated.
Egypt goalkeeper Essam El Hadary, who
is 45, took the field for his team’s final
group match to set the record.
Salem Aldawsari scored with almost the
last kick, shooting from a tight angle
inside the Egypt penalty area and poking
the ball past El Hadary.
Who’s in and who’s out at the World Cup
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
MOSCOW — Eight teams have secured
spots in the knockout stage at the World
Cup after the chaotic conclusions of
Monday’s matches. Nine teams have been
eliminated. Fifteen teams still have a
chance. With two groups finished and six
still playing, here’s a look at who’s in,
who’s out and possible scenarios at the
World Cup.
Group A
Uruguay locked up first place with a 3-0
win Monday over Russia, which advanced
anyway after winning its first two match-
es. Uruguay will play Portugal on Saturday
in Sochi. Russia takes on Spain on Sunday
at Luzhniki Stadium, the larger of the two
Moscow venues. Egypt and Saudi Arabia
have been eliminated.
Group B
Spain emerged atop the group after
simultaneous, frenetic finishes in the
night games. Spain got a late equalizer in a
2-2 draw with Morocco and Portugal had a
1-1 draw with Iran . The 2010 World Cup
champion Spaniards will play the host
Russians to start the knockout stage, while
reigning European champion Portugal will
play Uruguay. Morocco and Iran have been
eliminated.
Group C
France has advanced and leads with six
points. Denmark is second with four after a
1-1 draw against Australia, which has one
point. Peru is out of contention. Denmark
plays France on Tuesday, when Australia
takes on Peru. Australia needs to win, proba-
bly by more than one goal, and needs
Denmark to lose by as many as possible.
Tuesday • June 26, 2018 15
Group D
Croatia has secured a trip to the round of
16 and tops the group with six points.
Nigeria (three points) will advance with a
win over Argentina (one point) on Tuesday,
when Iceland plays Croatia. But Iceland (one
point) or the last-place Argentines could sur-
vive with a win and a Nigeria loss or draw,
depending on goal difference.
Group E
Brazil and Switzerland have four points
apiece, Serbia has three, and any of them
could grab one of the group’s two spots in
the knockout stage. Serbia meets Brazil on
Wednesday, likely needing a win.
Switzerland plays Costa Rica at the same
time. Costa Rica has been eliminated.
Group F
Mexico leads with six points but isn’t safe
yet. If defending champion Germany defeats
South Korea on Wednesday and Sweden
simultaneously tops Mexico, three teams
would finish with six points, sending it to
tiebreakers that start with the best goal dif-
ferential. If Mexico and South Korea win,
Mexico would top the group and the other
three teams would be equal on three points.
Group G
Belgium and England play each other
Thursday to determine who wins the group
and who finishes second. Tunisia and
Panama are out of contention.
Group H
Japan and Senegal lead the group with
four points apiece. Colombia has three and
would advance if it beats Senegal, and both
could go through with a draw if Japan
loses. Poland is eliminated.

As a junior in 2017, Lopez took a modest

This year, he improved to a .357 batting
route to a .517 slugging
percentage.

niest slugger.
“I think it was a combination of my body

a need,” Lopez said. “When he was playing
we all just waited for him to do something
and it all just worked out. … All the wins at
the beginning of season were just solely
because of his hitting.”
The game after Serra lost Barstad, Lopez

out turned middle-of-the-order hitter — who
batted .379 through 58 at-bats, and senior
infielder Jack Damelio who was Serra’s best
fulltime hitter at a .379 clip.
“Personally, yes I hit well, but I think we
all hit well in our own way,” Lopez said. “I
think we all took our own turn of leading the

It was Lopez’s drive and persistence that

U.S. OKs marijuana-based drug for seizures

By Matthew Perrone
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — U.S. health regulators
on Monday approved the first prescription
drug made from marijuana, a milestone that
could spur more research into a drug that
remains illegal under federal law, despite
growing legalization for recreational and
medical use.
The Food and Drug Administration
approved the medication, called Epidiolex,
to treat two rare forms of epilepsy in
patients 2 years and older. But it’s not quite
medical marijuana.
The strawberry-flavored syrup is a puri-
fied form of a chemical ingredient found in
the cannabis plant — but not the one that
gets users high. It’s not yet clear why the
ingredient, called cannabidiol, or CBD,
reduces seizures in some people with
epilepsy.
British drugmaker GW Pharmaceuticals
studied the drug in more than 500 children
and adults with hard-to-treat seizures, over-
coming numerous legal hurdles that have
long stymied research into cannabis.
FDA officials said the drug reduced
seizures when combined with older epilepsy
drugs. FDA chief Scott Gottlieb said his
agency had supported research on cannabis-
derived products “for many years.”
“This approval serves as a reminder that
sound development programs that properly
evaluate active ingredients contained in
marijuana can lead to important medical
therapies,” Gottlieb told reporters.
The FDA has previously approved syn-
thetic versions of another cannabis ingredi-
ent for medical use, including severe weight
loss in patients with HIV.
Epidiolex is essentially a pharmaceutical-
grade version CBD oil, which some parents
already use to treat children with epilepsy.
CBD is one of more than 100 chemicals
found in marijuana. It doesn’t contain THC,
the ingredient that gives marijuana its
mind-altering effect.
Physicians say it’s important to have a
consistent, government-regulated version.
“I’m really happy we have a product that
will be much cleaner and one that I know
what it is,” said Dr. Ellaine Wirrell, director
of the Mayo Clinic’s program for childhood
epilepsy. “In the artisanal products there’s
often a huge variation in doses from bottle
to bottle depending on where you get it.”
Side effects with the drug include diarrhea,
vomiting, fatigue and sleep problems.
Several years ago, Allison Hendershot
considered relocating her family to
Colorado, one of the first states to legalize

forms of epilepsy in patients 2 years and older. But it’s not quite medical marijuana.
marijuana and home to a large network of
CBD producers and providers. Her 13-year-
old daughter, Molly, has suffered from
severe seizures since she was 4 months old.
But then Hendershot learned about a trial of
Epidiolex at New York University.
“I preferred this to some of those other
options because it’s is a commercial product
that has gone through rigorous testing,”
said Hendershot, who lives in Rochester,
New York.
Since receiving Epidiolex, Hendershot
says her daughter has been able to concen-
trate more and has had fewer “drop” seizures
— in which her entire body goes limp and
collapses.
CBD oil is currently sold online and in
specialty shops across the U.S., though its
legal status remains murky. Most producers
say their oil is made from hemp, a plant in
the cannabis family that contains little
THC and can be legally farmed in a number
of states for clothing, food and other uses.
The immediate impact of Monday’s
approval on these products is unclear.
FDA’s Gottlieb warned about the use of
CBD products with “unproven medical
claims.”
“The promotion and use of these unap-
proved products may keep some patients
from accessing appropriate, recognized
therapies to treat serious and even fatal dis-
eases,” Gottlieb said.
The FDA previously issued warnings to
CBD producers that claimed their products
could treat specific diseases, such as cancer
or Alzheimer’s. Only products that have
received formal FDA approval can make
such claims, typically requiring clinical tri-
als costing millions.
Most CBD producers sidestep the issue by
making only broad claims about general
health and well-being.
Industry supporters downplayed the
impact of the FDA approval.
“I don’t know a mom or dad in their right
mind who is going to change what’s already
working,” said Heather Jackson, CEO of
Realm of Caring, a charitable group affiliat-
ed with Colorado-based CW Hemp, one of
nation’s largest CBD companies. “I really
don’t think it’s going to affect us much.”

A GW Pharmaceuticals spokeswoman said
the company would not immediately
announce a price for the drug, which it
expects to launch in the fall. Wall Street
analysts have previously predicted it could
cost $25,000 per year, with annual sales
eventually reaching $1 billion.
For their part, GW Pharmaceuticals execu-
tives say they are not trying to disrupt prod-
ucts already on the market. The company
has pushed legislation in several states to
make sure its drug can be legally sold and
prescribed.
The FDA approval for Epidiolex is techni-
cally limited to patients with Dravet and
Lennox-Gastaut syndromes, two rare forms
of epilepsy for which there are few effective
treatments. Patients experience frequent,
severe seizures, in some cases more than
100 per day.
But doctors will have the option to pre-
scribe it for other uses.
The new medication enters an increasing-
ly complicated legal environment for mari-
juana.
Nine states and the District of Columbia
have legalized marijuana for recreational
use. Another 20 states allow medical mari-
juana, but the U.S. government continues
to classify it as a controlled substance with
no medical use, in the same category as
heroin and LSD.
Despite increasing acceptance, there is
little rigorous research on the benefits and
harms of marijuana. Last year a govern-
ment-commissioned group concluded that
the lack of scientific information about
marijuana and CBD poses a risk to public
health.
Before sales of Epidiolex can begin, the
Drug Enforcement Administration must for-
mally reclassify CBD into a different cate-
gory of drugs that have federal medical
approval. That decision is expected within
90 days.

Genetic sleuthing bolsters food poisoning searches

By Mike Stobbe
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ATLANTA — Disease hunters are using
genetic sequencing in their investigation of
the ongoing food poisoning outbreak linked
to romaine lettuce, a technique that is revolu-
tionizing the detection of germs in food.
The genetic analysis is being used to bol-
ster investigations and — in some cases —
connect the dots between what were once
seemingly unrelated illnesses. It also is
uncovering previously unfathomed sources
of food poisoning, including one outbreak
from apples dipped in caramel.
So far, most of the work has largely focused
on one germ, listeria. But it is expanding. By
the end of this year, labs in all 50 states are
expected to also be using genetic sequencing
for much more common causes of food poi-
soning outbreaks, including salmonella and
the E. coli bacteria linked to recent lettuce
outbreak.
That means the number of identifiable out-
breaks are likely to explode even if the num-
ber of illnesses don’t.
“There are a lot of outbreaks where they
don’t connect the dots. Now they’re going to
be connected,” said Michael Doyle, a retired
University of Georgia professor who is an
expert on foodborne illness.
Not only that: The new DNA testing is
enabling disease detectives to spot food con-
tamination before anyone is aware of a result-
ing human illness — the equivalent of start-
ing a murder investigation by finding a gun
first and then looking for someone with a
gunshot wound.
“It’s turning around how outbreaks are fig-
ured out,” said Bill Marler, a prominent
Seattle lawyer who has made a business of
suing companies whose products sicken peo-
ple.
Marler added that the program is in its early
New DNA testing is enabling disease detectives to spot food contamination before anyone
is aware of a resulting human illness — the equivalent of starting a murder investigation by
finding a gun first and then looking for someone with a gunshot wound.
stages and it’s too early to call it a success.
But he said the new approach has the poten-
tial to transform how and when outbreaks
come to light.
The Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention is driving the program. It esti-
mates that 48 million Americans get sick —
and 3,000 die — from food poisoning each
year.
The new technique relies on whole genome
sequencing, which has been used in biology
for more than two decades. The laboratory
process determines nearly all of an organ-
ism’s DNA, the genetic material needed to
build and maintain an organism. And scien-
tists use software to compare the DNA of
specimens to see if they are the same strain
and how resistant they are to current medi-
cines.
The technique allows the analysis to
become faster, cheaper and more automated,
said Dr. Robert Tauxe, one of the CDC’s lead-
ing experts on food poisoning.
Plans are to use the technology against
several germs that cause food poisoning, but
so far all the work has concentrated on liste-
ria. The bacteria cause around 1,600 illnesses
each year, a tiny fraction of U.S. foodborne
disease diagnoses. But it is a particularly
lethal infection, killing nearly one in five
people who get it.
Historically, listeria-caused outbreaks were
known as “the graveyard of epidemiology.” It
could take weeks for people to develop symp-
toms, meaning food evidence was discarded
— and some of the patients were dead — by
the time officials began to sort things out.
From 1983 to 1997, only five listeria out-
breaks were identified in the United States.
They were obvious and large — with a median
of 54 cases per outbreak.
That’s how it was with other food poison-
ing outbreaks, too.
“Most foodborne outbreaks were detected
because it happened in one place,” like in a
town where a popular restaurant’s customers
grew ill, Tauxe said.
Outbreaks were investigated by asking
people what they ate before they got sick,
and then comparing notes to see what
patients had in common.
The field took a big step in the 1990s, after
a frightening outbreak erupted in the Seattle
area. Four deaths and more than 700 illnesses
in four states eventually were traced to under-
cooked Jack in the Box restaurant hamburg-
ers contaminated with E. coli.
The outbreak prodded the CDC to develop a
program that relied on a technique called
pulsed-field gel electrophoresis in which
investigators could look at a germ’s DNA in
clumps. It helped health officials more easily
link illnesses, but it was imperfect: It could-
n’t make exact matches and sometimes
missed when cases were related.
Then came whole genome sequencing.
The CDC began using the technique in
food poisoning investigations in 2013.
Initially state labs sent samples to a CDC lab
in Atlanta for testing. Now, the CDC is work-
ing to get labs in all 50 states up and run-
ning.
Last year, the federal agency awarded about
$32 million to state and city health depart-
ments to work on foodborne, waterborne and
fungal disease outbreaks. That included $12
million to help them set up whole genome
sequencing technology.

GAS TAX
Continued from page 1
Donald Trump. GOP officials hope opposition to the gas tax
will make inroads with moderate voters and encourage con-
servatives to cast a ballot.
They say high gas taxes contribute to California’s high
cost of living, making it harder for families to make ends
meet.
Democratic Gov. Jerry Brown and other supporters say the
$5 billion a year in revenue is needed to maintain roads and
bridges. The campaign in support, backed largely by con-
struction unions and contractors, is emphasizing the bene-
fits of rebuilding crumbling roads to relieve congestion and
reduce car repair needs.
“This flawed and dangerous measure pushed by Trump’s
Washington allies jeopardizes the safety of millions of
Californians by stopping local communities from fixing
their crumbling roads and bridges,” Brown wrote on Twitter.
“Just say no.”
Under legislation approved more than a year ago, taxes on
gasoline rose by 12 cents per gallon and diesel fuel by 20
cents. Vehicle registration fees rose by $25 to $175 depend-
ing on the vehicle’s value.
The initiative would repeal all those tax hikes and require
voter approval for any such increases in the future.
“This is a message to the millions of forgotten
Californians ignored by the Sacramento political elite, help
is on the way,” John Cox, a Republican candidate for gover-
nor who helped lead the initiative drive, said in a statement.

Located at 515 Cleveland St., across
from McKinley Middle School and
North Star Academy, the development
consists of five three-story buildings
38-feet tall occupying about three
quarters of an acre. The development
will bring a net increase of nine units,
and the 17 for-sale townhomes will
range from three- to four-bedroom
units, with each containing a small
entry porch, upper-story balcony and
private two-car garage, according to a
staff report. The project will also
include four guest parking spaces for a
total of 39 spots.
The site’s nearly 37,000 square feet
of building area will be complemented
by over 10,000 square feet of open
space areas and pedestrian pathways.
The developer will pay an affordable
housing impact fee of $548,600, and
the project will install school cross-
ing improvements at the intersection
of Harrison and Duane streets, includ-
ing wider sidewalks, bulbouts and

tion measure for voter consideration,
and if so, for which types of business-
es?”
As similar questions wafted across
the Peninsula, officials from local
cities have taken a variety of different
approaches to monitoring marijuana
business.
In South San Francisco, officials
earlier this month approved floating a
ballot measure to voters seeking
approval for a tax on some parts of the
cannabis market, while banning out-
door cultivation and storefront pot
shops.
Meanwhile, in Half Moon Bay, vot-
ers will decide whether cannabis culti-
vation will be permitted in greenhous-
es, per officials floating a variety of
measures heading to the fall election
ballot. And Redwood City will soon
welcome marijuana delivery opera-
tions without walk-in retail and nurs-
eries that grow and sell starter plants
in its industrial zones.
be removed before construction.
Commissioners celebrated the proj-
ect for bringing ownership opportuni-
ties in the midst of a housing crisis,
but joined neighbors in calling out the
developer’s minimal outreach, which
included a meeting with neighbors one
month prior to the public hearing and
communications with the neighboring
schools three months before that.
“Generally speaking the community
deserves better than the process that I
saw here tonight, ” Commissioner
Giselle Hale said, according to a video
of the meeting. “A good community
process gets you a very different con-
versation and probably fewer condi-
tions attached to your permits.”
Those conditions include paving a
public alleyway as well as organizing
at least two public outreach meetings,
Other local municipalities such as
San Mateo, Belmont and Colma are
less receptive to the opportunities pre-
sented by the recreational marijuana
market, as officials passed ordinances
banning the businesses, according to a
city report.
A slew of other local cities passed
temporary bans with an eye on track-
ing the action taken by nearby offi-
cials and voters. San Bruno was one of
the cities adopting a wait-and-see
approach by also approving an inter-
im prohibition, which will expire in
October.
Groundwork for the decision was laid
by Proposition 64, which legalized
recreational use of marijuana for adults
21 years and older. It allows individu-
als to grow up to six plants for person-
al use, and leaves local governments
control over whether to allow commer-
cial operations.
If officials ultimately decide to allow
the businesses, a set of fees should be
considered to help offset the toll taken
on public safety workers and other
departments charged with authorizing
and monitoring the requisite licens-
ing, according to the city report.

cations via mail will be expanded from
the standard 300 feet up to 800 feet
from the site. Several neighbors liv-
ing beyond 300 feet of the site chas-
tised the city for not informing them
of the project plans.
As for traffic impacts, the commis-
sion agreed the miserable congestion
and lack of parking in the area is pri-
marily due to student drop-off and
pickup at neighborhood schools, and
that such conditions shouldn’t prevent
residential construction on that site.
“At the risk of sounding unrespon-
sive to your concerns, the same argu-
ments would be said to prevent the
existing homes from being reoccu-
pied, and we know that’s not going to
be the case and something else is
going there,” said Vice Chair Kevin
Bondonno.
Beyond traffic, neighbors also
lamented the loss of units that they
said were rented at affordable rates
before those renters were kicked out
about a year ago after the developer
purchased the properties.
In other business, Chair Nancy
Radcliffe and Commissioner Hale were
reappointed to the Planning
Commission and a new commissioner,
Michael Smith, has been appointed.
He was sworn in by the City Council at
a meeting June 25 and will join the
commission at its next meeting tenta-
tively scheduled for July 17.
Also, as councilmembers examine
potential taxes to be imposed, they
should look to assure the rates are not
so burdensome that they encourage
potential cannabis sellers to seek the
black market, according to the report.
When assessing the financial impli-
cations of the decision, Medina said he
will not be swayed by an opportunity
to generate revenue from taxing
cannabis companies.
“I’m not looking at it like what is
going to make the most money,” he
said. “I’m looking at it like what is
best for the community.”
In other business at the meeting,
councilmembers stand to approve the
contract for new City Manager Jovan
Grogan, who was named last week as
the preferred candidate to replace the
retiring Connie Jackson.
Grogan, the Berkeley deputy city
manager, would earn $236,000 annual-
ly if councilmembers authorize his
deal.
The San Bruno City Council meets 7
p.m. Tuesday, June 26, in the San
Bruno Senior Center, 1555 Cry stal
Springs Road.

noTICe of peTITIon To
aDmInIsTer esTaTe of
Virt Lee Foster aka Virt Lewis
aka Virst Lewis
Case Number: 18PRO00429 -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 Virt Lee Foster aka Virt
Lewis aka Virst Lewis. A Petition for Pro-
bate has been filed by Brenda Lewis in
the Superior Court of California, County
of San Mateo. The Petition for Probate
requests that Brenda Lewis be appointed
as personal representative to administer
the estate of the decedent.
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 the
authority.
A hearing on the petition will be held in
this court as follows: JUL 16, 2018 at
9:00 a.m., Department 28, Room 2F,
Superior Court of California, County of
San Mateo, 400 County Center, Red-
wood 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
knowledgable in California law.
You may examine the file kept by the
court. If you are a person interested in
the estate, you may file with the court a
Request for Special Notice (form 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.

U.K. lawmakers approve big
expansion for Heathrow Airport
LONDON — Parliament approved plans
to make Europe’s biggest airport even big-
ger, backing on Monday what the govern-
ment described as the most important trans-
portation decision in a generation.
The House of Commons voted over-
whelmingly, 415-119, to build a third run-
way at Heathrow Airport after hours of
debate on the 14 billion-pound ($18.6 bil-
lion) project. The decision follows decades
of study and argument over how to expand
airport capacity in southeastern England,
and it is certain to be challenged in the
courts.
Prime Minister Theresa May believes the
project will boost economic growth while
signaling the country’s commitment to
expand international trade and transport
links as it prepares to leave the European
Union.
Neighbors and environmentalists object
because of concerns about pollution, noise
and the communities — some dating back
hundreds of years — that will be destroyed.
Business groups strongly backed the
government. They argued that increasing

the capacity at Heathrow would be tanta-
mount to putting out an “open for business”
sign as Britain prepares to leave the
European Union.
“This is a really important moment in the
history of this House and the history of this
country, ” Transport Secretary Chris
Grayling told the House of Commons as he
appealed for lawmakers to “move on from
decades of debate and set, to my mind, a
clear path to our future as a global nation in
the post-Brexit world.”
Opponents object to the third runway on
environmental, noise and financial
grounds. Friends of the Earth described it as
a “morally reprehensible” move that would
result in Heathrow emitting as much carbon
as the whole of Portugal.
Greenpeace said that if ministers wouldn’t
protect people from toxic air, opponents
would ask a court to do so.
Eighty-six killed in central
Nigeria as farmers, herders clash
LAGOS, Nigeria — Scores are dead after
vicious weekend clashes in central Nigeria
between mostly Muslim
herders and Christian
farmers, with one report
citing police saying 86
people were killed. The
growing conflict by
some accounts has
become deadlier than
Nigeria’s Boko Haram
Muhammadu extremist insurgency.
Buhari Nigeria’s president in
a statement Monday
accused unnamed politicians of taking
advantage of the chaos ahead of next year’s
elections, calling it “incredibly unfortu-
nate.”
Dramatic footage from Jos showed angry
people waving machetes and sticks and
shouting at passing security forces as they
weaved around overturned and burning vehi-
cles. Smoke rose in the distance. Women
and children clutching overstuffed bags
piled into the back of trucks, seeking a way
out.
President Muhammadu Buhari warned
against reprisal attacks after the “deeply
unfortunate killings across a number of
communities” in central Plateau State as the
military, police and counterterror units were
sent to end the bloodshed. “No efforts will

be spared” to find the attackers, Buhari said.
What’s next for Turkey after
vote grants Erdogan vast powers
ISTANBUL — President Recep Tayyip
Erdogan is ushering in a new era for Turkey
after weekend elections
saw him win a presidency
granting him the vastly
expanded executive pow-
ers he has long sought.
But his governing party
saw its parliamentary
majority slip, leaving
him reliant on the sup-
Recep Erdogan port of a small national-
ist party.
Critics have reacted with alarm to
Erdogan’s victory, saying the results usher
in what will effectively be one-man rule,
putting someone with increasingly auto-
cratic and intolerant tendencies at the helm
of a strategically significant NATO country.
Here is a look at what’s at stake, and what
the election results mean for Turkey and its
international relations.
The fate of Turkey’s increasingly shaky
economy is critical, and much will depend
on how Erdogan handles it.

In sign of detente, North Korea skips anti-U.S. rally

By Cha Song Ho and Eric Talmadge
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
PYONGYANG, North Korea — In another
sign of detente following the summit
between leader Kim Jong Un and U. S.
President Donald Trump, North Korea has
decided to skip one of the most symbolic
and politically charged events of its calen-
dar: the annual “anti-U.S. imperialism”
rally marking the start of the Korean War.
Fist-pumping, flag-waving and slogan-
shouting masses of Pyongyang residents
normally assemble each year for the rally
to kick off a month of anti-U.S., Korean
War-focused events designed to strengthen
nationalism and unity. It all culminates on
July 27, which North Korea celebrates as a
national holiday called the day of “Victory
in the Fatherland Liberation War.”
Last year’s event was held in Kim Il Sung
Square with a reported 100,000 people
attending. North Korea even issued special
anti-U.S. postage stamps.
Officials had no on-the-record comment
on the decision not to hold the event this
year. But Associated Press staff in the
North Korean capital confirmed Monday
that it would not be held.
North Korea’s leader Kim Jong Un listens to Donald Trump as they meet in a one-on-one
bilateral session at the start of their summit at the Capella Hotel.
North Korea has noticeably toned down
its anti-Washington rhetoric over the past
several months to create a more concilia-

tory atmosphere for the summit and avoid
souring attempts by both sides to reduce
tensions and increase dialogue.
North Korea’s state media were filled
with reports, photos and video of the June
12 meeting between Trump and Kim in
Singapore.
A 42-minute documentary-style news
special was aired on the state television
network two days after the summit and has
been repeated frequently since, meaning
that by now there are probably few North
Koreans who are unaware of the changes in
the air. For many North Koreans, the pro-
gram was also quite likely the first time
they had ever seen what Trump looks like.
Still, North Korea’s handling of the
changes and how it presents them to its
people remains highly nuanced.
So far, it hasn’t said much about what
Washington is interested in the most —
denuclearization. But it has made signifi-
cantly fewer references to its need to have
nuclear weapons than it was making last
year, when Kim was test-launching long-
range missiles at a record pace and ten-
sions with Washington neared the boiling
point.
North Korea’s decidedly less strident pos-
ture these days underscores the delicate posi-
tion it finds itself in after decades of touting
the United States as its archenemy.

Mnuchin dismisses reports of tech restrictions on China
