City to reduce lanes for safety


Redwood Citys Farm Hill Boulevard to go from four lanes to three
By Bill Silverfarb
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

A one-year pilot program to reduce the


number of lanes from four to three on busy
Farm Hill Boulevard in Redwood City will
begin in July.
The City Council approved the program unanimously at its Monday night
meeting after hearing from the public

for more than an hour.


Most speakers were in favor of the program although others called the idea ridiculous for the congestion it will add to both
Farm Hill Boulevard and Jefferson Avenue.
Councilman Jeff Seybert said the inconvenience the program might bring is a
good trade-off for the safety it will bring.
The pilot program will add 60 to 90 seconds onto travel times, said Senior

Transportation Coordinator Jessica Manzi.


The pilot will end in August 2016 after
which the council can choose to stick with
three lanes or revert the road back to the
way it is now.
All you need is paint, Community
Development Director Aaron Aknin said
about changes to the road.
Leaving it as is is not the right answer,
Mayor Jeff Gee said after public comments.

Some residents who live in the area have


complained that Farm Hill Boulevard,
which meets Jefferson Avenue west of El
Camino Real, has become a magnet for drag
racing and speeding motorists.
One resident, Chris Matthews, even
resorted to placing a dinosaur prop on his
front lawn to slow traffic.

The onset of two new charter schools joining the


Redwood City Elementary School District has officials concerned about the lack of classrooms available for the students.
The district has agreed to take on KIPP Excelencia
Preparatory and Rocketship Education next year, but limited campus capacity across the district is complicating the
process, according to a district report.
District leaders will recommend to the Board of Trustees
Wednesday night that Kennedy Middle School house KIPP,
and that Hoover and Taft elementary schools split hosting
the Rocketship program. KIPP proposed to serve the North
Fair Oaks community, but district officials say there is
insufficient room in the region to accommodate the students

Serra student to perform on American Idol


Reno Anoai will audition on the hit television show Wednesday
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

When his sister convinced him last winter


to audition for American Idol, Reno Anoai
did not expect he would soon be performing
in front of Keith Urban, Jennifer Lopez and
Harry Connick Jr.
And now Anoai, a junior at Junipero Serra
High School in San Mateo, will be on
national television as his performance for
those superstars airs Wednesday on Fox.
Anoai, 16, said his sister Heavenley
encouraged him to audition on a whim last
year.
So instead of heading to school, he went
to the Cow Palace in Daly City to audition
to be a contestant on the show.
She kind of forced me into it, said
Anoai. She told me that I need to go share
my gift with the world.
Anoai sang one of his favorite songs,
Ordinary People, by John Legend, to the
judges, who then asked him to perform
again. So he followed with I Dont Want To
Talk About It, by Rod Stewart.
And though Anoai cannot disclose the
results of the audition, he came away from
the experience feeling positive.
Im blessed for the opportunity to per-

form for these three


amazing artists, he said.
And
despite
the
immense fame of the
celebrity judges, Anoai
said he was not intimidated in the moment.
They make you feel
comfortable, he said.
Reno Anoai And once you get into
that comfortable zone,
you just kind of fit in, because they are
musicians as well.
Anoai cited the support of his family for
helping him through the audition process.
My family has been a huge support system for this opportunity, he said.
His mother, Maufou Anoai, spoke glowingly of her sons pursuit of his passion.
Im absolutely proud of him, she said.
Its just an awesome thing to witness, to
see your child pursue his dream. Im humbled to see my son do what he loves at this
level.
Reno said the experience has encouraged
him to pursue a musical career, regardless of
whether the audition for American Idol is
fruitful.
He said he began singing as a 3-year-old,
and continued honing his skills through
singing in church.

Though he rarely sings outside of church,


he said that he and his brother and sister
have recently began singing in a group
together. Anoai said he is pushing all his
other interests, such as sports or activity in
the church, to the back burner as he engages
his full interest in singing.
This journey that Ive started has definitely pushed me to pursue a career in music,
and secured my feeling that this is my passion, he said. This has made me realize
that this is what I really want to do.
Anoai also praised the American Idol
experience, and enjoyed the camaraderie
that is shared between other contestants.
Everyone is really friendly, and really
nice, he said. The other contestants are
really supportive of each other. The people
that I met, I know that we will be friends for
a long time.
He also said the encouragement of friends
and classmates at Junipero Serra High
School has helped him tremendously.
Everyone is wishing me good luck,
Anoai said. The school has been very supportive throughout this whole American
Idol journey.
Anoai will perform Wednesday on
American Idol, which airs locally at 8 p.m.
on Fox.

NTSB: Systemic flaws in safety oversight of gas pipelines


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Three powerful accidents in recent years highlight weaknesses


in the oversight of how natural gas
providers maintain the largest pipelines in
their networks, accident investigators said
Tuesday as they issued more than two dozen
safety recommendations.
A major effort a decade ago by the federal
government to check a rise in violent

pipeline failures in high-consequence


areas where people are more likely to be hurt
or buildings destroyed has resulted in a
slight leveling off of such incidents, but no
decline, the National Transportation Safety
Board said. And while the frequency of such
accidents remains low, they are still more
likely to occur in more densely populated
areas despite increased safety efforts in
those areas, the report found.
More safety improvements are needed to

A steady increase in pipeline explosions

Reverse Mortgage Financial Assessment to begin March 2015


The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has issued a nancial assessment for
reverse mortgage borrowers that will take effect
March 2, 2015
HUD writes in explaining the purpose of nancial
assessment, The mortgagee must evaluate the
mortgagors willingness and capacity to timely meet
his or her nancial obligations and to comply with the
mortgage requirements. The mortgage requirements
include paying property taxes, homeowners insurance
and keeping up home maintenance.
HUD states, In conducting this nancial
assessment, mortgagees must take into consideration that some mortgagors seek a HECM due
to nancial difculties, which may be reected
in the mortgagors credit report and/or property
charge payment history. The mortgagee must also
consider to what extent the proceeds of the HECM

could provide a solution to any such nancial difculties. For borrowers who do not demonstrate
their willingness to meet their loan obligations, life
expectancy set-asides will be required.
The mortgagee letter also species documents that
must be collected and submitted to all borrowers. The
documentation has been updated to include Financial
Assessment Documentation including, credit history,
income verication, asset verication, property charge
verication, residual income analysis, documentation
of extenuating circumstances or compensating factors
and calculations for life expectancy and residual
income shortfall set-asides.
If you have a question about qualifying for a reverse
mortgage today, or how the nancial assessment will
impact your situation, contact us today.

A reverse mortgage is a loan that enable


homeowners 62 or older to borrow against the
equity in their home without having to give up
title, or take on a monthly mortgage payment.
The money received can be used for any purpose.
The loan amount depends on the borrowers age,
current interest rates, and the value of the home.
Borrower must maintain property as primary
residence and remain current on property taxes
and homeowners insurance. A reverse mortgage
does not have to be repaid until the borrower
sells or moves out of the home permanently,
and the repayment amount cannot exceed the
value of the home. After the loan is repaid any
remaining equity is distributed to the borrower or
the borrowers estate.

City renames park after prolific volunteer


Frank Harrington, who died in November, was beloved in San Carlos
By Bill Silverfarb
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF WRITER

A pocket park in downtown San


Carlos has been renamed the Frank D.
Harrington Park to honor one of the
citys most prolific volunteers.
The council unanimously approved
the name change Monday night to
honor Harringtons years of volunteer
work as a community service officer
before he died in November at the age
of 74.
He was famous for taking daily walks
downtown past the park that would
eventually be named after him.
He was part of the fabric of downtown, Councilman Matt Grocott told
the Daily Journal.
Grocott would run into Harrington
often as he went downtown for his
morning coffee and was fond of the
classic Chevrolet pickup truck
Harrington refurbished and often
cruised down Laurel Street.

Harrington
and Grocott agreed.
He added a personal touch to his
downtown policing duties including
staying on scene with accident victims
until paramedics arrived, Grocott said.
Councilman Bob Grassilli called
Harrington a complete volunteer
who never took a dime for the work he
did.
He was the type of person who does
so much for the community but never
gets or seeks attention, Grassilli said.
In 2010, the City Council issued a
proclamation to Harrington for his
years of dedicated service to San
Carlos.

Harrington put himself in harms

protection of the San Carlos community. He dedicated himself to the community and spent much of his time spreading good will, assisting residents and

White House drops plan to scale back college savings plans


By Stephen Ohlemacher
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON The White House


said Tuesday it is dropping a proposal
to scale back the tax benefits of college savings plans amid a backlash
from
both
Republicans
and
Democrats.
President Barack Obama made the
proposal last week as part of his State
of the Union address. It was part of
Obamas plan to consolidate and simplify a sometimes confusing array of
tax breaks for college students.
Resistance from Congress was swift.
Republicans publicly criticized the
plan, and aides said House Democratic
Leader Nancy Pelosi pushed senior
administration officials to drop it as
she flew with the president aboard Air
Force One from India to Saudi Arabia.

Other Democrats also privately


weighed in against the plan, including
Rep. Chris Van Hollen of Maryland,
the top Democrat on the House Budget
Committee, and Sen. Charles Schumer,
D-N.Y.
A White House official said Tuesday
the proposal had become a distraction.
We proposed it because we thought
it was a sensible approach, part of consolidating six programs to two and
expanding and better targeting education tax relief for the middle class,
said the White House official. Given
it has become such a distraction, were
not going to ask Congress to pass the
529 provision so that they can instead
focus on delivering a larger package of
education tax relief that has bipartisan
support.
The officials spoke on condition of
anonymity because they were not

into an adjoining yard, according to police.
A yard to yard search helped deputies
locate him in a detached shed. He refused to
leave the shed and a police dog bit him in
the lower leg. A sheriffs deputy suffered an
arm laceration during the arrest and both
were taken to the hospital for medical treatment. Torres was booked for battery on a
peace officer, possession of narcotics for
sale and resisting arrest, according to
police.

Man arrested for exposing

Experts: Gold nuggets stolen


from museum may be tough sell

A man was arrested in Redwood City last


week after being seen masturbating and
walking around while exposing himself in
the downtown movie theater parking lot.
David Robinson, a 25-year-old Los Altos
resident, was seen masturbating in his blue
BMW while in the public parking lot on the
800 block of Jefferson Avenue around 2:30
p.m. Monday, Jan. 19, said Redwood City
police Lt. Sean Hart.
Robinson was then seen by multiple witnesses outside of his car walking around the
parking lot while exposing himself. Police
caught up with him just as he was leaving
the parking lot and booked him on one
count of misdemeanor indecent exposure,
Hart said.

Thieves who rammed a stolen SUV into


the Wells Fargo History Museum in downtown San Francisco and swiped historic
gold nuggets worth roughly $10,000 could
face a tough time selling the loot as news of
the heist sweeps through the rare metal community, experts say.
Dealers will be on the lookout for nuggets
with historical significance that suddenly
appear on the market, Northern California
rare coin dealer Don Kagin said. The three
masked men who smashed the glass doors of
the museum, held a security guard at gunpoint and stole the gold from a display case
early Tuesday may have difficulty selling
the nuggets unless they get melted down, he
said.

House GOP moves toward possible lawsuit on immigration


By Erica Werner
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON House Republicans are


moving toward authorizing a potential lawsuit against President Barack Obama on
immigration, House Speaker John Boehner
announced Tuesday, as the GOP struggled for
a way to stop the presidents unilateral
deportation curbs.
Boehner announced the plans in a closeddoor meeting with lawmakers, telling them
GOP leaders are finalizing a legal plan with
the best chance of blocking Obamas
moves, according to a person in the room.
Options include joining a lawsuit already
filed by states over the issue, or filing a separate lawsuit. The person in the room spoke
on the condition of anonymity to discuss
the private meeting.
The plan emerged with Republicans short
on realistic options for stopping Obamas
November executive actions, which extended work permits and temporary deportation
relief to some 4 million people here illegally.
The House already has passed legislation
to overturn the immigration policies, but
the Senate looks unlikely to agree to the
measures, which were added to must-pass
legislation to fund the Department of
Homeland Security beyond February.
Its not clear how that issue will be
resolved. Senate Majority Leader Mitch
McConnell has promised a vote on the

House-passed bill, and said Tuesday that the


Senate would take up the issue after completing consideration of the Keystone XL
oil pipeline, which could be as soon as next
week.
But nearly all Senate Democrats signed a
letter to McConnell Tuesday urging him not
to include immigration measures on the
Homeland Security spending bill. With
Republicans six votes short of the 60 needed to advance most legislation in the
Senate, McConnell cannot move the bill
without some Democratic support, leaving
the way forward unclear. He has promised
there will be no government shutdown.
This is an important fight to have. I
think we should do everything we can to
persuade at least a half a dozen Democrats
that they should join us to get this done,
said Sen. Roy Blunt, R-Mo. Sometimes
you dont know how these legislative battles go if you dont have them, and we intend
to have this one.
The uncertainty has frustrated conservative Republicans who believe Congress top
priority on immigration should be to hold
firm against Obama. They united against a
separate border security bill that was scheduled to come to a vote on the House floor
Wednesday, and GOP leaders delayed action,
citing changes to the House schedule caused
by the inclement weather. Its not clear
when that bill will come back up.
House Republicans already have sued to
try to undo Obamas health care law.

Pentagon: Obama to request


large Pentagon budget hike
By Andrew Taylor
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON President Barack


Obama will ask Congress for a hefty, almost
8 percent boost for the Pentagon, including
$5.3 billion to equip and train Iraqi soldiers
and moderate Syrian rebels to fight Islamic
State militants in the Middle East.
Obama will ask for $534 billion for the
core budget of the Defense Department a
$38 billion increase according to predecisional Pentagon documents obtained
by the Associated Press on Tuesday. That
means there could be some slight changes
when the budget actually comes out
Monday.
The Pentagon witnessed major budget cuts
with the imposition of so-called budget
sequestration in 2013 and has been held at a
freeze since then. Military brass say the
bleaker budgets have forced cuts in flying

hours, troop training and maintenance of


military equipment. The agency was due for
just a $3 billion increase under caps set in a
2011 budget pact.
The increases are likely to find support
among defense hawks on Capitol Hill, but
Republicans controlling Congress are only
in the early stages of figuring out how to
pay for them. Simply taking the money
from domestic agencies is sure to be
opposed by the White House and could lead
to gridlock in Washington.
The sequester is hurting our national
security and undermining our defense, Rep.
Steny Hoyer, D-Md., told reporters Tuesday.
But he warned against cutting domestic programs like education and research to boost
the Pentagons budget. Youll undermine
investments in education, research, health
and other matters critically important to
individuals and our countrys economy and
shift that money to the defense side.

RIYADH, Saudi Arabia In a show


of solidarity with Saudi Arabia,
President Barack Obama led a parade of
American dignitaries to the ultraconservative desert kingdom Tuesday to
pay respects after King Abdullahs
death and take measure of the new
monarch.
Obamas presence here underscored
the key role Saudi Arabia plays in U.S.
foreign policy in the Middle East and
highlighted Washingtons willingness to put national security priorities
ahead of concerns about human rights
issues. Hours before arriving in
Riyadh, Obama spoke at length about
the importance of womens rights during an address in India, setting up a jarring contrast with his warm embrace of
Saudi Arabia, a country where there are
strict limits on womens freedom.

ties with the kingdom despite its array
of human rights issues.

The importance of vaccinations

burgeoning movement to
skip childhood vaccinations
is a trend among some afuent families who may believe that
avoiding them will keep their children healthier.
Add this to the lack of vaccinations
from the underprivileged and those
coming to this country through unofcial means and the recent outbreak of
measles should have been completely
expected.
So what can be done now? Public
health ofcials are continuing to
extol the virtues of getting vaccinated
and trying to emphasize their safety
and purpose in protecting the public
health.
Still, there are those who are holding on to their convictions that not
vaccinating is the way to go. There
was some fear that vaccinations could
cause autism or other health issues but

Editorial
those have largely been discounted.
Now, there is more potential for
completely avoidable diseases like
measles to spread. And the issue gets
more tangled because those who have
been vaccinated can still carry it and
pass it on to those who havent.
There is also some concern that those
who have received one vaccination
more than 30 years ago may be susceptible to it now.
Additionally, measles, though once
commonplace, is not now common
and many may not know what to look
for when feeling ill.
It is a difcult quandary for parents
who believe that vaccinations may
harm their children and hold a personal belief against them. However, it

Extreme outrage
has been a long time since diseases
like measles have harmed large portions of the population through brain
damage and even death and perhaps
that experience has been lost on this
generation of those seeking to avoid
vaccines.
Parents with concerns over the
impact of vaccines, and the number of
them now required or suggested, can
space them out to ameliorate those
concerns. However, there is a difference between a personal choice that
only affects your family and one that
affects the public health. The death of
even one child from a preventable disease is one too many.
The recent spread, albeit small for
now, of a once dormant disease is certainly cause for alarm particularly
when a visit to a doctors ofce can
prevent it.

We should have the right to die
Editor,
Religious groups have condemned
aid-in-dying legislation as against
Gods will (California lawmakers to
pursue right-to-die legislation in the
Jan. 21 edition of the Daily Journal).
I would like to know how they
know that and why they worship a
god that condones such a need.
Perhaps the next time they are in
touch with their god they could ask
why it created the situation. As for
the CMAs opposition to physician
assisted suicide, I would like to
know how their Hippocratic Oath tolerates unnecessary suffering and
denies patient choice especially when
healing has failed. A remedy for
someones hopeless situation is
nobodys business but their own.
I encourage everyone to have a conversation with their physician and if
such an option is not available,
should it be needed, to nd another
physician. As for our legislators,
they have an opportunity to correct a
religiously inspired law (against suicide) that is probably unconstitutional and should have never been on the
books. They are not qualied to make
medical decisions.

the paper. On the front page was a


picture of a ground-breaking ceremony for a bullet train. A big celebration
was held to acclaim a 19th-century
technology solution to high-speed
travel in California in the 21st century.
Instead of building new high-speed
highways across California, we are
building a 19th-century train that is
restricted to a very narrow corridor of
California. High-speed highways
costs are shown to be much less than
building bullet trains. So, instead of
implementing creative funding to
build high-speed highways by selling
bonds (similar to U.S. savings
bonds) to grade and high school students so they can start securing their
nancial future, their future will be
mired by high debt to build the bullet train. Instead of California leading the country in the development of
innovative carbon-ber body
autonomous vehicles that are lighter,
faster and more fuel efcient; instead
of California having long-term job
growth to support the expansion of
high-speed highways across
California; instead of having a highspeed highway system that can support itself and fund future expansion,
well have a 19th century bullet train
that will saddle the future generations
with huge debt load.
Where were, or are, all the
Californians who should be very concerned about the states future? I know
they are out on our current highways

Chris Christie in San Mateo?


Editor,
I am not sure which department
within the city of San Mateo authorized this, but I sure wish we could
hang the responsible parties by their
thumbs and waterboard them.
PG&E is doing work at the corner
of South Norfolk Street and East
Hillsdale Boulevard for which they
have to close the right-hand lane of
westbound Hillsdale. As those of us
who live in the area know, this is the
primary westbound exit out of Foster
City. To close this at 8 a.m. on a
weekday borders on criminal negligence. On the several days they have
done this the trafc has backed up
halfway through Foster City, making
an already-awful commute up to 20
minutes longer.
This is not PG&Es fault this one
is on whomever in the city of San
Mateo decided it would be funny to
put up a roadblock during the heaviest
commute hour of the day. Why they
didnt restrict the closure until after 9
a.m. can only be explained by assuming a vendetta against their neighbors. Perhaps Chris Christie has been
giving them PR advice.

he picture of the adult world imparted by TV is


often highly inaccurate, antisocial and devoid
of any moral conceptual framework.
Miriam Meizdian, Boys Will Be Boys.
I was watching the news on TV last Thursday morning
and on came a segment about a commercial by Carls Jr.
planned for the viewers of the Super Bowl. I couldnt
believe what I saw! I shouted, Are there no limits? This is
outrageous! If there was a commercial that more blatantly
depicted women as things to be used by lecherous men for
their sexual pleasure, Id be surprised! Is this what we want
our children to emulate?
Are there no standards of
decency? Isnt there a line
drawn somewhere that prevents such sexually explicit
garbage from being televised
where any child can see it?
Does the mania for corporate
prots always outweigh
decency, responsibility and
ethical behavior these days?
When it gets to the point
that such outrageous, sexually explicit garbage can be
broadcast where all children
and teens can view it, all reason and rationality have been lost.
Not only does todays entertainment media expose children to sexual activity and innuendo completely inappropriate for them, it also greatly inuences societys vision
of women. It seems that romance has given way to recreational sexual activity with apparently no qualms about
viewing women purely as sex objects. Also, more often
than not, men are depicted either as lustful airheads or lecherous predators. The message from Carls Jr. is explicitly,
Give in to your Neanderthal nature, men. Gorge yourself.
Let go of all self-control. Celebrate your manhood! This is
one of the most egregious examples of how we, in this
country value corporate prots over our the welfare of the
rest of us especially our children that I can imagine.
No other Western industrialized nation has so willingly
allowed the educational and developmental needs of its kids
to be exploited in the pursuit of prot as we have. No other
democratic country has allowed its children to be seen as
markets for commercial gain and ignored their moral,
intellectual and social growth as we have. James P.
Steyer, The Other Parent.
Would that the pope should have something to say about
it. He recently informed us that Catholics dont have to
breed like rabbits and should practice responsible parenting. Does the pope consider what might occur when
virile men are watching an extremely violent game, testosterone surging, titillated by the Carls Jr. commercial many
times, with their female companions nearby? (As we all
know, the Neanderthal tendency can be aroused quite easily). Shows how distanced from reality those papal isolationists are how they have allowed their religious righteousness suppress any common sense that they could have
developed if they had not escaped from the real world into
their cloistered life.
Yet, Carls Jr., the epitome of an irresponsible corporation, draws attention to itself and goes to great lengths to
attract Neanderthal men who are still operating as in the
stone age. I guess it was too much to expect President
Obama to say anything in his State of the Union address
about how corporate interests are getting out of hand and
threatening the very integrity of our culture with their arrogant and aggressive way of using us to add to their bottom
line with no concern for how this may be ravaging our traditional ethics and proven standards of behavior. Of course,
our corporate interests consider themselves as persons,
according to the Supreme Court ruling, Citizens United.
And now, with the Republicans attaining more power, they
will increasingly determine the fate of our nation.
We are all concerned that terrorism emanating from outside may destroy our way of life, but there is an insidious
enemy that has much greater potential to do us in. It is the
increasing internal moral decay that is exacerbated by
greedy corporate interests, the sociopathic mentality with
its cavalier disregard for the welfare of others, and the failure of honest, responsible, decent people to stem this
plague.
What Steyer wrote in 2002 applies even more today.
Over the last three decades, weve progressively let standards and protections for children erode. First, it was in the
interest of free speech and artistic freedom, but along the
way the marketplace took over. Now its exclusively commercial interests that determine the content of the media,
and explicit sex is a tried and true formula to grab audiences
on television, in movies, in music and on the net. To a
troubling extent the adults industry, government and
parents are letting the media set commercially driven
sexual standards for kids who, more than anything, need
responsible adult guidance, information and love.

U.S. stocks slumped Tuesday after


some of the markets largest companies reported disappointing earnings,
taking investors on a turbulent ride
that deepened the losses for the year.
The companies that rattled the market included Microsoft, Caterpillar and
Procter & Gamble. Some also forecast
weaker results in months ahead.
An unexpected drop in U.S. orders of
long-lasting goods also weighed on
investors, briefly dragging the Dow
Jones industrial average down 390
points early in the day before it pared
back some of the losses. It was the
biggest one-day decline for the bluechip index since Jan. 5.

time when many investors are expecting the resurgent U.S. economy to

said Sean Lynch, co-head of global
equi t y s t rat eg y at Wel l s Farg o

starting to worry that the stronger
dollar and some the impacts of ener-

gy arent always positive.


The Dow dropped 291.49 points, or
1.7 percent, to close at 17,387.21. It
is now 3.7 percent below its record
high of 18,053.71 on Dec. 26.

The major stock indexes got off to a

Yahoo CEO heeds shareholders


call to spin off Alibaba stake
By Michael Liedtke
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO Yahoo CEO


Marissa Mayer is spinning off the
companys $39 billion stake in
Chinas Alibaba Group Holding in a
move that wards off a potential shareholder rebellion.
The highly anticipated decision
announced Tuesday will enable Yahoo
to avoid paying billions of dollars in
future taxes while intensifying the
pressure on Mayer to prove she can
rejuvenate one of the Internets oldest
and best-known companies.
A newly formed entity called SpinCo
will inherit ownership of Yahoos 384
million Alibaba shares when the taxfree spinoff is completed toward the
end of this year.
Existing Yahoo shareholders will
receive stock in SpinCo, which will be
designated as a registered investment
company. The breakup is being set up
so SpinCos gains from the sale of
Alibaba stock will be taxed as a lower
rate than Yahoo Inc. would have paid

had it held on to the


stake.
Yahoo stockholders cheered Mayers
plan as the companys shares gained
$3.44, or more than
7 percent, to $51.43
in extended trading.
The spinoff overMarissa Mayer
shadowed Yahoos
results for the final three months of
last year. The fourth-quarter numbers
showed Yahoo is still struggling to
grow, even as more advertising shifts
to the Internet and mobile devices.
Yahoo earned $166 million, or 17
cents per share, a 52 percent drop from
the same period in the previous year. If
not for certain charges, Yahoo said it
would have earned 30 cents per share
a penny above the average estimate of
analysts surveyed by FactSet.
The companys revenue dipped 1 percent to $1.25 billion. After subtracting
ad commissions, Yahoos revenue
totaled $1.18 billion, another small
decline from the previous year and

slightly below analysts projections.


It marks the eighth time in Mayers
10 quarters as Yahoos CEO that the
companys revenue has declined from
the previous year.
Yahoo Inc. invested just $1 billion
in Alibaba nearly a decade ago, a bargain that slapped the company with
massive tax bills as it whittled its
stake during the past three years.
Without the spinoff, Mayer estimated
that Yahoos tax bills on its Alibaba
stake would have been about $16 billion, based on Alibabas current market
value.
Investments in Alibaba, Chinas
largest e-commerce company, and
Yahoo Japan are the main reason
Yahoos stock has more than tripled
since Mayer defected from Google to
become Yahoos CEO two-and-half
years ago.
Yahoo, which is based in Sunnyvale,
California, is retaining its nearly 36
percent stake in Yahoo Japan. The
stake is currently worth nearly $7 billion, BGC Financial analyst Colin
Gillis estimated.

Record iPhone sales drive blowout quarter for Apple


By Brandon Bailey
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO Apple had


another blowout quarter thanks to its
new plus-sized iPhones, which helped
the company smash sales records for
the holiday season.
Apple said Tuesday that it sold 74.5
million iPhones during the three
months that ended Dec. 31, beating
analysts expectations for the latest
models of Apples most popular gadget, introduced in September.
The surge in iPhone sales drove the
companys total revenue to $74.6 billion, up 30 percent from a year earlier.
Net income rose 38 percent to $18 billion, as Apple reported earnings of
$3.06 a share. Analysts surveyed by
FactSet were expecting earnings of
$2.60 a share on revenue of $67.39
billion.
Apple forecast revenue for the cur-

rent quarter between $52 billion and


$55 billion. The midpoint of that
range is just below the average analyst
estimate of $53.6 billion for the period ending in March, when sales typically fall from their holiday season
peak.
Apple Chief Financial Officer Luca
Maestri said in an interview that revenue for the current period will
increase between 14 and 20 percent
from a year ago, despite the strong dollar, which has forced other companies
to lower their forecasts.
We feel very good about the March
quarter, Maestri added.
Apple has set records with each new
version of its iPhones. By comparison, the company sold 51 million
smartphones during the holiday quarter
in 2013, when its iPhone 5s and 5c
models were new on the scene. Bigger
screens are one reason for the popularity of the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus. Apple

had resisted when other companies


such as Samsung began introducing
smartphones with bigger screens. But
its iPhone 6 has a 4.7-inch screen,
measured diagonally, while the 6 Plus
screen measures 5.5 inches. That compares to a 4-inch screen on iPhone 5
models.
It took Apple a long time to come
to grips with the fact that the market
did want the bigger screen, said
Gartner tech analyst Van Baker. They
finally closed the gap on a feature they
were missing, which their competition
had capitalized on.
The surge in sales of Apples signature smartphones helped make up for
an expected decline in sales of iPad
tablets. The company sold 21.4 million iPads, down 22 percent from a
year earlier. Sales of Mac computers
rose 9 percent, and Apple saw overall
revenue gains in all geographic
regions.

the only industry group to rise.


Stocks have wavered since the start
of the year on signs that growth outside of the U.S. is slowing.
Decembers 3. 4 percent drop in
durable goods orders came about as
demand for commercial aircraft
declined. It suggests that U.S. companies may be growing wary of economic weakness in Europe and Asia, as well
as the strengthening dollar, which can
hurt American exports.
Traders remain focused on corporate
earnings, which are a key driver of
stocks. But there were few bright spots
among several of the companies delivering their latest financial results
Tuesday.
Caterpillar, Packaging Corp. of
America, J&J Snack Foods and mining
company Freeport-McMoRan each
reported earnings that fell short of
Wall Street forecasts.
Even companies that boasted strong
quarterly results, such as American
Airlines Group, which recorded record
quarterly profit, also delivered cautionary notes. The airline said a key revenue figure would decline in the next
quarter.
Weakening currencies versus the dollar was a recurrent theme, with Procter
& Gamble and Microsoft each citing
the stronger dollar as reason for weaker results in months ahead.

Business briefs
Obama floats offering
first-ever drilling lease in Atlantic
WASHINGTON The Obama administration floated a plan
Tuesday that for the first time would open up a broad swath of
the Atlantic Coast to drilling, even as it moved to restrict
drilling indefinitely in environmentally-sensitive areas off
Alaska.
The proposal envisions auctioning areas located more than
50 miles off Virginia, North and South Carolina, and Georgia
to oil companies no earlier than 2021, long after President
Barack Obama leaves office. For decades, oil companies have
been barred from drilling in the Atlantic Ocean, where a moratorium was in place up until 2008.
The plan also calls for leasing 10 areas in the Gulf of
Mexico, long the epicenter of U.S. offshore oil production,
and three off the Alaska coast.
This is a balanced proposal that would make available
nearly 80 percent of the undiscovered technically recoverable
resources, while protecting areas that are simply too special
to develop, Interior Secretary Sally Jewell said in a conference call with reporters. The areas off the table are very small
in comparison to areas on the table.
The plan, which covers potential lease sales in the 20172022 time frame, drew immediate reaction from Capitol Hill,
where Sen. Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska, called it a war on her
home state, and where Northeastern Democrats objected to the
proposal for the Atlantic Ocean, saying an oil spill knows no
boundaries.

Amgen tops Street 4Q forecasts


Amgen Inc. cruised to a 27 percent jump in fourth-quarter
profit and beat Wall Street expectations, due to higher sales of
nearly all its medicines, tight cost controls and a tax benefit.
The worlds biggest biotech drugmaker by revenue said its
starting a cycle of several important new product launches
big enough that last year it announced major job reductions
and other cost cuts to free up money for the launches.
The company also reaffirmed its October forecast for 2015
profit, for revenue of $20.8 billion to $21.3 billion and
adjusted earnings per share of $9.05 to $9.40 in line with
analysts forecasts.
Amgen, based in Thousand Oaks, California, on Tuesday
reported net income of $1.3 billion, or $1.68 per share, up
from $1.02 billion, or $1.33 per share, a year earlier. The bottom line was boosted by Congress renewing an industry
research tax credit at years end, retroactive for all of 2014.

FTC clears Albertsons purchase of Safeway


NEW YORK Supermarket chain Albertsons says U.S. regulators have approved its purchase of competitor Safeway Inc.
The companies said Tuesday the deal has been cleared by the
Federal Trade Commission and should close within five business days.
Albertsons, which privately held and part-owned by
Cerberus Capital Management, agreed to buy Safeway in
March for $7.64 billion in cash. The FTC said the sale would
hurt consumers in 130 markets by reducing competition, and
in December the companies said they would sell 168 stores in
eight states.

Chicago ends Warriors home win streak in OT


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

OAKLAND Derrick Rose hit a step-back


jumper with 7 seconds remaining in overtime,
and the Chicago Bulls ended Golden States
franchise-record 19-game home winning streak
with a thrilling 113-111 victory over the
Warriors on Tuesday night.
Rose dribbled to his left and created space to
get the shot off over Klay Thompson, skipping around the court after the Warriors called
timeout. Rose finished with 30 points, and his
final basket overshadowed a night when he
committed a career-high 11 turnovers and made

Bulls 113, Warriors 111


just 13 of 33 shots.
Thompson misfired on a running bank shot
as time expired to finish off Golden States first
loss at rowdy Oracle Arena in more than two
months.
The Warriors forced overtime on Draymond
Greens tying tip-in with 1.4 seconds left. But
they couldnt do enough to slow down a rejuvenated Rose and Chicagos front line with center
Andrew Bogut out with flu-like symptoms.
Pau Gasol had 18 points and 16 rebounds,
and Joakim Noah had 18 points and 15

rebounds as the Bulls pounded the Warriors


down low. They outrebounded Golden State 61
to 48.
Thompson had 30 points and 10 rebounds,
and David Lee scored a season-high 24 points
for the NBA-leading Warriors (36-7), who lost
on their home floor for the only the second
time all season and the first time since San
Antonio knocked them off on Nov. 11.
Stephen Curry capped a 7-0 spurt to start the
fourth quarter with one of his biggest highlights, faking a behind-the-back pass with his
left hand and throwing a no-look toss over his
right shoulder to Lee for a dunk to put the

Warriors up 88-79.
But just as he did throughout the night, Rose
brought the Bulls back. The Warriors still led
105-100 with 2:18 left before the Bulls made
their final charge.
Chicago capped its closing burst by trapping
Curry in the backcourt and forcing him into an
errant pass. Rose came up with the ball and fed
Kirk Hinrich, whose 3-pointer put the Bulls up
107-105 with 15.8 seconds remaining.
Andre Iguodala missed a 3 after a timeout, but
Green pushed Noah aside for the tying tip-in.
Roses long-range heave at the end of regulation was never close.

Gryphons stay unbeaten playoff push

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

The Crystal Springs Uplands School


girls soccer team did not look like a firstplace team in the first half of its showdown
with Castilleja Tuesday afternoon in
Hillsborough.
Facing one of the best teams in the West
Bay Athletic Leagues Skyline Division,
Castilleja outworked the Gryphons for the
first 40 minutes. The Gators seemingly won
every 50-50 ball, were first to the ball more
often than not and took a 1-0 lead at halftime.
In the second half, however, the
Gryphons turned the tables. The got the
equalizer midway through the second half
and then held on late as the Gators applied
tremendous pressure.
But hold on they did as the Gryphons battled to a 1-1 tie to stay ahead of the Gators
and remain on top of the WBAL Skyline
Division standings.
Were happy with the point (in the standings), said Crystal Springs coach Michael
Flynn. It was the tale of two halves. The
girls say theyre a second-half team. I with
it was for a full 80 (minutes).
Crystal Springs (4-0-1 WBAL Skyline, 94-1 overall) looked like anything but a firstplace team in the opening 40 minutes. The
Gryphons played tentative and sloppy
with passes to no one in particular, balls
kicked out of bounds and defensive clearing
attempts that were mishit off of shins.
Castilleja, which was moved from the
tougher WBAL Foothill Division after last
season, took advantage, putting pressure on
the Gryphons for the entire half. The Gators
out-shot the Gryphons 8-4 in the half and
held a 17-10 advantage for the game.
Luckily for Crystal Springs, many of the
first-half shots from the Gators were from
long distance and freshman goalkeeper
Prisilla Sanchez was not seriously challenged.
Sanchez finished the game with 12 saves
six in each half.

SAN JOSE The San Jose Sharks returned


from the All-Star break in playoff position
but knowing they have almost no margin
for error if they want to make an 11th
straight postseason trip.
The Sharks entered Tuesday in second
place in the Pacific Division with 56 points
in 48 games. But with only a 10-point lead
over 12th place Minnesota in the tightly
packed

know they have their

Todd McLellan here with the group weve
been comfortably in the playoff picture.
There have been a couple other years where
we had to battle and were in the middle of
one of those battles or dogfights.
San Jose has made the playoffs for 10
straight seasons the second-longest
active streak in the NHL. But after becoming
just the fourth NHL team to lose a best-ofseven series after winning the first three
games in the first round last year against
Los Angeles, Sharks general manager Doug
Wilson talked about the need to take a step
back before taking two steps forward.
The team made few offseason additions,
choosing instead to give more opportunities to young players. Rookies like Melker
Karlsson and Barclay Goodrow have made
contributions this season and young veterans like Joe Pavelski, Logan Couture and
Marc-Edouard Vlasic have taken on added
responsibility.
But more work is needed if the Sharks are
going to reach the level of the top teams in
the Western Conference.

Lynch made it clear right
from the start he wasnt

Serena Williams advances, Venus out of Aussie Open


By Dennis Passa
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MELBOURNE, Australia Madison Keys


got one Williams sister out of the way on
Wednesday at the Australian Open. On
Thursday, the 19-year-old American will try
to make it two, and this sibling might be a
little tougher.
Keys overcame a left thigh injury to beat
No. 18-ranked Venus Williams 6-3, 4-6, 6-4
and advance to the last four against topranked and 18-time major winner Serena,
who had little trouble beating last years
finalist, Dominika Cibulkova, 6-2, 6-2.
Serena Williams made the win look easy
despite suffering from a bad cold the past
few days. She spoke with a hoarse voice in
her post-match interview on court.
I have to keep my answers short because
I keep coughing, Williams said.
There had been some hope that the semis
might feature an all-Williams matchup at a
major for the first time in more than five
years. The Williams sisters last met in a
Grand Slam match at Wimbledon in 2009,
when Serena won the final.

Williams has advanced to the semifinals at
Melbourne Park, shes won the tournament.
Keys received treatment on her leg after
dropping serve in the second set to give
Venus Williams a 4-1 lead. After the medical
timeout, she came back to break Williams
serve twice to level the set at 4-all, but
Williams then broke her next service game
and served out the set, sending it to a
decider.
Keys was also behind 3-1 in the final set
before breaking Williams serve three times
in a row to close out the match.
The match featured 12 service breaks,
seven won by Keys, and 83 combined
unforced errors.
The loss ended an encouraging 10 days for
Venus Williams at Melbourne Park. She hadnt advanced to the quarterfinals of a Grand
Slam since the U.S. Open in 2010 and had
struggled to recapture her earlier form after
being diagnosed in 2011 with Sjogrens

syndrome, an auto-immune disease that


causes fatigue and joint pain.
But Williams is 9-1 to start the new year
after capturing her season-opening tournament in Auckland, New Zealand, before the
Australian Open.
It already feels like a long season
already, so many matches in a row,
Williams said. But its a great start.
Hopefully Ill be able to keep this level up.
Regardless of the quality of the errorstrewn match, Keys was pleased to be
through to the semis.
Its amazing, you just have to embrace
the moment, said Keys, who is now
coached by three-time major winner
Lindsay Davenport. And I get to enjoy
another moment next round.
Keys said the injury was the same one that
forced her to retire from her third-round
match last year at Wimbledon.
It was definitely one of those things
where it wasnt nearly as bad as Wimbledon,
but it was that nightmare of I dont want
this to happen again, she said. Luckily
the pain meds kicked in.

Sports briefs
Former NFLers appeal
dismissal of lawsuit over painkillers
SAN FRANCISCO Lawyers representing
1,300 former NFL players filed notice Tuesday
that they plan to appeal a federal judges dismissal of a lawsuit alleging that teams damaged the players health by routinely and
often illegally dispensing painkillers.
The notice was filed with the 9th U.S.
Circuit Court of Appeals. The original lawsuit
was dismissed in December by Judge William
Alsup of the U.S. Northern District in
California. He ruled that the collective bargaining agreement between the league and the
NFL Players Association was the appropriate
forum to resolve those claims and not the
court.
The appeal would be heard by a three-judge
panel, which ordered supporting briefs in the
case by May 7.
An investigation of claims in the lawsuit
has also sparked an investigation by the
Federal Drug Enforcement Administration.
The agency conducted spot checks of at least
five NFL visiting teams medical staffs last
fall as part of an ongoing probe.
The 1,300 former players include dozens
who said the teams lax controls over
painkillers continued until 2012. Any violations of the Controlled Substances Act after
2009 could be used in a criminal investigation.

The 41-year-old Suzuki, a 10-time All-Star

and 10-time Gold Glove winner, is expected to


be the teams fourth outfielder behind
Giancarlo Stanton, Christian Yelich and
Marcell Ozuna.
We are thrilled to have Ichiro Suzuki in a
Marlins uniform, Marlins owner Jeffrey
Loria said in a statement. He is the ultimate
professional on and off the field, and will
make an excellent addition to our ballclub.
Suzuki is the first Japanese player to sign
with the Marlins. He hit .284 and stole 15
bases for the New York Yankees last season.
Suzuki is a career .317 hitter in the majors
and a two-time AL batting champion. The former AL MVP has 2,844 career hits.

Mayweather, Pacquiao exchange


phone numbers at Heat game
MIAMI Floyd Mayweather Jr. and
Manny Pacquiao have finally met in person.
And now talks might get serious about them
meeting in the ring.
Mayweather and Pacquiao were both sitting
courtside, directly across from one another, at
a Miami Heat game on Tuesday night.
Mayweather went over to Pacquiao at halftime, the men shook hands and chatted
briefly, then exchanged phone numbers.
Asked to clarify if the exchange meant the
two fighters would negotiate directly about
meeting in the ring, Pacquiao said that was the
case.
Mayweather did not respond to a question
asked by an AP reporter. Not now, one of his
security guards said, as Mayweather fiddled
with his phone.

corner kick. Freshman Ella Nudell sent a
cross into the middle of the Gryphons
penalty box and found Julia Lodoen, who
had moved up into the attack from her left
fullback position. Lodoen rose up and headed home the cross to put the Gators up 1-0.
Castilleja continued to press and pressure
the Gryphons defense, with midfielder
Victoria Pu making several dangerous runs
from midfield, but the Gators had to settle
for the one-goal lead at halftime.
That was probably the worst half of soccer weve played all year, Flynn said. We
had a little pep talk at halftime.
(Assistant coach) Luisa (Monterrosa-Kent)
told them this not the way we play here.
They responded very well to it.
The Gryphons looked like a different team
in the second half as they came out with a lot
more intensity and determination.
Sophomore Megan Duncanson played like a
girl possessed, seemingly covering the
entire field from offense to defense to
get her team back in the game.
The Gryphons came out flying to start the
second 40 minutes, getting a number of dangerous looks. Duncanson just missed on a
free kick from 35 yards, as the ball sailed

Lynch has much more to say when the price
is right. Insurance company Progressive and
candy maker Skittles released commercials
featuring Lynch saying a bit more than his
usual: Yeah and Nope and Thanks for asking.
At Media Day last year, Lynchs reclusiveness became a major story. Lynch appeared for
6 1/2 minutes, left the arena, and then returned
to a mixed zone the NFL created for players
not on podiums or in microphone-equipped
speaking areas at the Prudential Center in
Newark, New Jersey.
With the exception of briey speaking with
the NFL Networks Deion Sanders, to the
Seahawks website, and to Armed Forces
Network, he did not deal with reporters that
day.
Sanders, the Hall of Fame cornerback, tried
again to interview Lynch, but got nowhere
this time and left laughing.
Teammates defended Lynchs behavior.
This is who he is. I dont nitpick or judge,
so I just accept a person for who they are, AllPro safety Earl Thomas said. I just love who
he is. He is so random.

over the top of the goal.
She didnt miss on her next opportunity.
Castilleja was whistled for a foul when
freshman midfielder Nikki Lee was taken
down about 35 yards from goal. Duncanson
quickly stepped up and hit a rocket that
found the upper left corner of the net to tie
the game at 1 in the 59th minute.
Seven minutes later, Crystal Springs had a
golden opportunity go by the wayside when
Hannah Williams, who had her initial shot
attempt from the top of the penalty box
blocked, had the ball deflect right back to
her. It seemed to catch her by surprise as her
follow up shot sailed high.
It appeared that miss might come back to
haunt the Gryphons as Castilleja spent the
final 15 minutes throwing everything they
had at the Crystal Springs defense.
Our back line was a little harried today,
Flynn said, who added that he has had to
replace nearly the entire defensive line from
last season.
Theyre learning. Its been trial by fire.
Castilleja had a chance to snatch the win
late, but Pus shot from the top of the
Gryphons penalty box clanged off the cross
bar in the 70th minute.
Minutes later, the final whistle sounded
and the Gryphons were relieved to get away
with the draw.
The second half is much more indicative
of the way we play, Flynn said. Well take
the tie. Casti is definitely a good side.
any more than the commissioner is obligated
to speak to the media, Sherman said. I think
that if players are going to be obligated to
speak to the media then every one of the NFL
personnel should be obligated to speak to the
media weekly, and thats not the case.
Its unfortunate, but I think that every team
should be forced to present certain players,
obviously a few of them. Obviously, if someone is uncomfortable in front of the media and
uncomfortable answering questions, then you
have to nd a way to accommodate the NFL.
This is a game; you nd a way to accommodate
everyone else whos uncomfortable.
Lynch was ned $20,000 for making an
obscene gesture during Seattles overtime win
over Green Bay in the NFC championship
game. The league did not specify what the gesture was, but Lynch grabbed his crotch after
scoring a go-ahead touchdown in the fourth
quarter. Lynch was ned $11,000 for a similar
gesture in Seattles win over Arizona on Dec.
21.
Lynch also was told before the last game he
could not wear gold shoes because they were a
violation of the NFLs on-eld dress code, and
that he could be ejected from the game if he
wore them.
Hes a guy that cares about everyone in that
locker room, assistant head coach and offensive line coach Tom Cable said. Anytime you

Tiger talks tooth ahead of Phoenix Open


By Doug Ferguson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. Tiger Woods was


all smiles Tuesday and with a full set of
teeth.
Woods gave a play-by-play account of
how his front tooth was knocked out in
Italy on Jan. 19 while celebrating girlfriend
Lindsey Vonns record 63rd World Cup victory. He said one tooth was chipped and the
other was cracked. Both were replaced
before he arrived to start his season at the
Phoenix Open.
He said he wore a skeleton-patterned scarf
over his face to avoid being recognized,
making a crack about how difficult that can
be for a man of black heritage at a World Cup
ski race in Italy.
Not a lot of brown dudes at ski races,
OK? he said with a laugh, as cameras
clicked at his smile.
Woods said when the race was completed,
the podium presentation was moved up on a

hill for the photographers. He went to the top


of the hill, behind the
cameras.
All the camera guys
are below me on their
knees or moving all
around, trying to get a
picture because shes
Tiger Woods hugging people, saying
congratulations to the
other racers as they are coming down, he
said. Some already finished, some are there
already in the changing area. Dude with a
video camera on his shoulder right in front
me, kneeling, stood up and turned and
caught me square on the mouth.
Woods said he tried to keep his mask on
so the blood is not all over the place. He
said the videographer hit the tooth on
which he had root canal, chipping it. He
said the other tooth had to be fixed, too,
because it had cracks through it.
The photo of Woods missing a tooth

became as big a sensation as Vonns record


victory. There did not appear to be any
swelling on Woods mouth when a photographer captured the image of his mouth
slightly open and the scarf lowered.
Nicola Colli, the secretary general of the
race organizing committee, told The
Associated Press he was among those who
escorted Woods from the tent to a snowmobile for him to leave and there was no such
incident.
When he arrived he asked for more security and we rounded up police to look after
both him and Lindsey, Colli had said.
Whether anyone believed the story from a
week ago was not his concern.
Dude, you guys ... its just the way the
media is, he said. It is what it is.
Woods is playing his first official PGA
Tour event since he missed the cut at the
PGA Championship in August. But the
biggest topic after he played nine holes
under a cloudy sky Tuesday morning was the
mystery of his missing tooth.

Except that Woods said there was no mystery at all except for the attention it
received.
Its a new world, he said. We need to
talk about something. Have to fill up space.
The story is about Lindsey breaking the
record. Thats the story. I mean, geez, every
sport you get teeth knocked out, and unfortunately I wasnt actually competing and
got my teeth knocked out.
Asked if his tooth was a cap to begin
with, Woods said, These are permanent,
yeah.
Woods said the flight home to Florida was
the most painful.
I couldnt eat, couldnt drink until he
fixed them, put the temporaries on, Woods
said. I couldnt have anything touch it.
Even breathing hurt, because any kind of air
over the nerve ... the tooth was still alive,
was cracked.
When asked if the photographer realized
what he had done, Woods replied, He didnt
care.

Allenby stands by story, says truth will come out


By Doug Ferguson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. A defiant and at times angry Robert


Allenby stood by his story Tuesday that he was robbed and
beaten in Honolulu, basing the account on what he remembered and what he was told by a homeless woman who came to
his aid.
There has definitely been a lot of confusion, Allenby said.
But I think the No. 1 thing that you should all remember is
that my story stays exactly the same as the way I told it. I told
you what I knew, and I told you what someone told me. Thats
the bottom line. I never lied to anyone.
Honolulu police are investigating the Jan. 16 incident as
second-degree robbery. No arrests have been made.
Allenby says he was at Amuse Wine Bar with his caddie and
a friend from Australia on the night he missed the cut at the
Sony Open. He said surveillance tape shows him leaving the
bar with three people he doesnt recognize, and that his next
memory is being in a park. He said a homeless woman told
him he had been thrown out of a trunk, which he said caused his
injuries.
Allenby posted a photo of his bloodied forehead and a
swollen eye to his private Facebook account. He said he was

robbed of wallet and phone, though the


credit card he used to pay for dinner and
wine was still in his front pocket.
In the last week, however, the Honolulu
Star-Advertiser quoted the homeless
woman, Charade Keane, as saying she
never told Allenby she saw him in a trunk
and did not how he was injured. The newspaper quoted another homeless man in the
Robert Allenby park, Chris Khamis, as saying Allenby
told him he was depressed and drugged at a
strip club and that he passed out and hit his head on a lava rock.
Exactly what happened remains a mystery, even for Allenby.
He said Tuesday he has no memory in my brain from about
11:06 p.m. to 1:27 a.m. on that date.
I have been trying and overlooking and going backward
and forward, and there is just nothing, he said. I cant tell
you how frustrating that is because we all want to know the
truth.
The 43-year-old Australian said headaches subsided a few
days ago and he chose to play in the Phoenix Open to try to
get his life back on track.
His face looked relatively clean as he spoke to reporters
his injuries drew more attention than any of his 22 wins

around the world and the crowd was even larger because the
podium was in front of the caddie hospitality tent.
Allenby saved his anger for the media, whom he sarcastically claimed to be amazing experts at investigations.
I was a victim, and all of a sudden youre putting all the
blame on me, Allenby said. I take full responsibility if I did
do something wrong. ... At the end of the day, I was in a place
having a nice dinner and having a nice night, and then I
became a victim. And now, its all been turned around.

SHARKS
Continued from page 11
the team. I dont know if weve
played our best hockey yet. Were
still improving, which is also
positive. We realize we have a
tough road ahead to get to the
playoffs.
Consistency has been a major
problem for the Sharks, who have
seven losses against the bottom
six teams in the league but are 6-02 against the four first-place
teams.
Were a middle-of-the-pack
team right now, McLellan said.
Until we declare ourselves any
different and thats through play
and wins, thats what we are. We
have to take steps forward to overcome that.
The Sharks will begin the postbreak stretch on Thursday night
against Anaheim without two key
players. Defenseman Justin Braun
and forward Tommy Wingels both
broke bones in their left hands on

Jan. 19 against New Jersey. Braun


got hurt blocking a shot from
Mike Cammalleri and Wingels was
injured on a slash by Cammalleri
later in the game.
Both players are expected to
miss a few more weeks but would
like to be back in time to play the
outdoor game at Levis Stadium on
Feb. 21 against Los Angeles.
Whether that is possible remains
to be seen.
The Sharks managed to win their
first game without those two key
players last Wednesday when they
beat Los Angeles 4-2.
Tommy and Brauny are big
parts of our team, Goodrow said.
Tommy can really play anywhere
in our lineup special teams, PK,
PP. Hes a key guy on our team and
with him out, guys like myself are
going to need to step up and bring
a little more to the table.
The Sharks do expect to get
rookie defenseman Mueller back.
Mueller has been out with an
upper-body injury since returning
from
the
World
Junior
Championship.

How about some
homemade beef jerky?
Because while it may
sound daunting to season and dry your own
meat, it actually is a
simple process that
requires little hands on
time. It also can be
done well ahead as
in several weeks
and the results are
pretty spectacular. And
lets not forget how
wonderfully a well-seasoned hunk of jerky
goes with all that beer youll be drinking.
At its most basic, jerky is thinly sliced
meat that is slowly dried until most of the
moisture is removed. While some people
use food dehydrators for this, an oven set
at 200 F works just fine, too.
But nobody wants plain jerky, and
thats where the marinade comes in. Once
the meat is sliced, you give it a bath in
something really flavorful for 8 to 10
hours. And those flavors can go in pretty
much any direction you like, though big
and bold are pretty much the best way to
go. Think ingredients like hot sauce, lime
juice, soy sauce and coffee.
In terms of equipment, all you need are a
rimmed baking sheet and a wire rack (the
sort you cool cookies on). You set the
rack over the pan, lay the marinated meat
on the rack, then pop it in the oven for a
few hours.

J.M. HIRSCH

Once the jerky is dried, be sure to let it


cool fully. It will seem tender at first, but
it will be drier and firmer once cooled.
Store in an airtight container in the
refrigerator for several weeks. Or until
you have time to make a beer run for the
big game.

SWEET HEAT BEEF JERKY


When making jerky, you want to get
very lean beef. Top or bottom round is
good if you want large, wide slices of
jerky. For thin strips, flank steak (cut
against the grain) is good. Whatever cut
you get, be sure to trim away and discard
as much fat as possible before slicing and
marinating.
Start to finish: 3 1/2 to 4 1/2 hours (30
minutes active), plus cooling
Servings: 12
12-ounce can cola (not diet)
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup soy sauce
2 tablespoons hot sauce (adjust to your
tolerance)
1/2 teaspoon coarsely ground black
pepper
2 1/2 pounds lean beef
In a large bowl, gently whisk together
the cola, brown sugar, soy sauce, hot
sauce and black pepper. Cut the beef into
slices about 1/4 inch thick and add to the
marinade. Cover the bowl and refrigerate 8
to 10 hours.
When ready to dry the jerky, heat the
oven to 200 F. Line a rimmed baking
sheet with foil, then set a metal rack over
it. Mist the rack with cooking spray.
Remove the slices of jerky from the
marinade, shaking them lightly to remove
excess liquid. Arrange the slices on the

hour, rotate the pan front to back. After 3
hours, check the jerky. It should be just
barely tender. If not, return to the oven
for another 30 minutes to an hour, checking regularly. Remove the pan from the
oven and let dry completely on the rack.
Refrigerate in an air-tight container for up

CONCERNS

projected to enroll in the program, so
staff is recommending the board
approve its placement elsewhere.
But Kevin Sugar, president of the
Redwood City Teachers Association,
said he anticipates parents will attend
the meeting and voice their concern
that the charter school is enjoying
unfair advantages.
I dont see it being a very equitable
or fair relationship, he said, citing
concerns regarding the charter schools
ability to move into a public school
system, despite being owned by a private company.
According to a district report,
Kennedy is the only campus that can
accommodate the roughly 250 students
projected by the district to enroll at
KIPP.
When KIPP applied to join the district, the school leadership said it was
their intent to serve children from the
North Fair Oaks community in
Redwood City.
But McBride said the district already
hosts a charter school on the Fair Oaks
Elementary School campus, and that
there is not sufficient classroom space
on the campus to host another charter
school.
And though the charter would like to
serve residents in the North Fair Oaks
neighborhood, McBride said the district has no obligation to offer the charter its preferred campus.
The law doesnt say you get to pick
where you are going to be, said
McBride. But Im not going to displace my students to give a charter its

preference.
The district is offering KIPP exclusive use 10 classrooms, nine for teaching and one for special education, as
well as shared facilities on the middle
school campus to operate its program.
This is sufficient space to allow the
charter school to exist on one site, and
not be split up across the district, said
Superintendent Jan Christensen in an
email.
No other campus in the district has
more than eight available classrooms,
she said.
Difficulties in finding a campus for
KIPP are compounded by the stresses
associated with the district absorbing
Rocketship next year as well, said
Christensen.
Initially, Rocketship told the district
that the charter school would be able to
find its own site in Redwood City, and
would not require housing on district
property.
But development of the Rocketships
campus on property it purchased at 860

Patriots vs. Seahawks in a battle for the best seven-layer dip


By Alison Ladman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

We created two versions of that classic


party pleaser seven-layer dip. Each is
inspired by the home of one of the teams facing off in the big game, New England and
Seattle.
For the New England Patriots, we have barbecued pulled pork topped with skillet
sauteed apples and butter. Over that is a thick
layer of cream cheese and baked beans, then a
final layer of bacon and extra-sharp Vermont
cheddar cheese. For the Seattle Seahawks, we
start with teriyaki-seasoned Dungeness crabmeat, then add layers of creamy cheese,
caramelized onions and smoked mussels, and
finish with purple cabbage slaw and blackberry vinaigrette.

SEALS
Continued from page 1
born and the drama; theres so much
drama here.
Up to 10,000 seals return to the
restored nature reserve just south of
Pigeon Point Lighthouse each year to
breed and molt their skin.
As the beasts grow rowdy during
winters mating season, visitors are
typically only allowed access through
guided tours between Dec. 15 and
March 31. Last weekend, however, the
nonprofit Coastside State Parks
Association hosted Seal Adventures
a rare three-and-a-half hour opportunity for visitors to leisurely watch, photograph and marvel at the beached
behemoths.
You can be in such proximity too.
Thats whats amazing, its the ability
to be so close, said Laurie Dubin, who
visited Ao Nuevo Sunday with her
husband. Thats whats been so nice,
is it gives you the freedom to spend as
much time as you want at each site.
Valentines Day will serve as the
finale of the sold-out three-day
fundraiser during which 600 tickets,
accruing $36,000, were sold.
Its funny the way it works out
because with breeding season,
Valentines Day is almost like the
height of the season, said
Supervising State Parks Ranger Terry
Kiser. Its sort of appropriate with
love is in the air at Ao Nuevo.
In its fourth year, proceeds from Seal
Adventures benefit educational and
docent programs at 15 parks along the
San Mateo County coast, said association Treasurer Michael Braude.
Funding has been cut dramatically
over the last several years and theres
some things that its just easier for us
to raise money for and fund than it
would be for [State Parks] to have to go

FARM HILL

He complained that it was hard to
exit his driveway by vehicle onto
Farm Hill Boulevard and that his car
was once sideswiped when it was
parked on the road.
Farm Hill Boulevard is especially
troublesome when school starts and
lets out, said Jennifer Grillo, a mother
of two.
She dresses up as a crossing guard to
assist her children and others when
they walk to school.

or school, you have to use Farm Hill.

through the typical state budget


process, Braude said.
The cooperating association is an
asset to State Parks educational and
interpretive efforts along the coast,
particularly at the popular Ao Nuevo
marine reserve, Kiser said.
Nearly 34,000 people attended tours
at the protected breeding ground during
the three-and-a-half-month mating
season in 2013 alone, Kiser said.
Were located on a relatively undeveloped coastline and here is one of
the few places in California that you
can see large marine mammal wildlife
viewing at such an undisturbed area,
Kiser said. Its really an important
place not only for the elephant seals,
but also for a lot of other natural
resources. Endangered species of birds,
endangered species of snakes, its a
rare habitat that were here to preserve
and educate and interpret for the people
of California.
Despite the $60 event tickets selling out, there are ample opportunities
for nature enthusiasts to take guided
tours at the seals habitat. For $7, visitors will be led on a 3- to 4-mile walk
traversing sand dunes to arrive at various vantage points where newborn
pups, pregnant females and up to 20foot long males can be seen along the
beach.
Sometimes, visitors may even
encounter a stray thats made its way
inland along the winding sand dunes
for an afternoon respite.
San Francisco resident and wildlife
photographer Cathy Tait said she
attended Sundays afternoon Seal
Adventures excited about not knowing
what to expect.
I wanted to photograph the elephant seals while theyre breeding,
Tait said. Theyre animals, theyre
unpredictable and theyre just fun.
Scott Dubin said he jumped when he
heard about the special event as hed
long wanted to visit Ao Nuevo. Even
after spending hours near the massive

creatures last weekend, Dubin said hed


be thrilled to return for guided walk as
well.
Look at how huge these guys are!
Look at how they move and what they
do! Id just read about it, I heard about
it, Ive just always wanted to come,
Dubin said. This is a whole other
level of experience, just seeing these
bulls go at it up close like this, its just
incredible.
Even Hester, whose organization
helps preservation efforts at Ao
Nuevo, said the leisurely Seal
Adventures was a treat. Hester is the
executive director of Oikonos, a nonprofit coordinating with State Parks
and the University of California at
Santa Cruz to study elephant seals and
restore marine habitat at Ao Nuevo.
The site also features a Marine
Education Center providing a natural
history exhibit, bookstore and theater
housed in a historic 19th-century dairy
ranch.
A remote island clearly visible off
the coast of Ao Nuevo still maintains
the quarters of a vacant 19th-century
lighthouse, now overrun with wildlife.
From wetlands, coastal prairies and
sloping dunes, Hester said the vibrant
wildlife found at Ao Nuevo should be
an example for all to cherish.
The protections around the elephant seals as well as this whole
ecosystem has really kept this place
wild and it has recovered. This whole
place used to be grazed to the ground
by cattle, Hester said. So I think this
is also a really hopeful place. A lot of
the coast could look like this native
and wild and beautiful if we let it go
back.

one whether driving or walking. Cars


drive at highway speeds, Radcliffe
said at Monday nights council meeting.
The council also approved the formation of a Complete Streets Advisory
Committee to address traffic and safety
concerns on other Redwood City
streets.
Farm Hill may be the worse one
right now but other streets suffer from
speeding, Gee said.
The plan is to reconfigure the traffic
lanes on Farm Hill Boulevard and
Jefferson Avenue, from the citys western limit to Alameda de las Pulgas,
from four lanes to three lanes with a
two-way left turn center lane and two
bicycle lanes.
But Tye Tyson said the plan will
only create more gridlock in the area
and possibly send motorists onto
nearby residential streets.

The explosion of downtown growth


with over 300,000 square feet of office
space, over 1,600 new apartments,
many condo development projects and
new hospitals ... will create demands
on our roads, said Tyson, who urged
the council to stick with Farm Hills
current lane configuration.
The pilot program maintains some
existing features on Farm Hill
Boulevard including:
Both travel lanes on the upper part
of Farm Hill Boulevard, going toward
Caada College and Interstate 280,
remain the same to keep cars from
being trapped behind slower moving
vehicles such as SamTrans buses and;
All travel lanes remain at the intersection with Emerald Hill Road to
maintain the existing capacity.

ANSWERS

WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 28, 2015


AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) Travel and romance
will go hand-in-hand. Your warm heart will attract
many new acquaintances. Get involved in competitive
sports. You need a challenge.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) Dont take chances
while operating machinery or equipment. You will
be misunderstood if you arent precise in your
explanations to others.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) Love can be hot,
as long as you avoid getting trapped in a onesided relationship. You will be lazy and will lack
discipline when it comes to your fitness program.

the top-left corner.

Push yourself a little harder if you dont want to


gain back those extra pounds.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Concentrate on your
domestic chores before your family complains about
your lack of helpfulness. You may feel a little under the

with influence if you attend intellectual events.
Dont exaggerate your talents. You may find
yourself embarrassed.

financial gains are prominent. Lady Luck is with


you, and your insight into making the right choices

doctors appointment just because you are feeling
a little better. Stress is probably at the root of your
problem. Rest will be necessary.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) A romantic encounter
will be stressful. Mixing business with pleasure could
be fun, but highly dangerous as well. You must make
some serious choices before you ruin your reputation.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) Your hard work will
pay off. You should feel satisfied and confident
about your professional direction. Dont let the
negativity of friends or relatives cause you to

hobbies youve been thinking about. One of them may
turn into a lucrative pastime. You can make personal
changes that will enhance your appearance.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Deception is
apparent when dealing with family or children. You
may want to put some energy into beautifying your
living quarters. Make everyone pitch in.
