San Mateo continues Downtown Parking Management Plan, increases rates
By Samantha Weigel
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Those employed in downtown San Mateo


could soon be paying more to drive to work
as city officials seek to adjust what and how
they charge for high-demand parking permits.
In continuing to implement the citys

Downtown Parking Management Plan, the


council voted Monday to move forward with
charging various rates for different lots and,
instead of quarterly permits, begin issuing
them monthly.
Staff and the council spent years devising
a plan to better manage limited parking in
San Mateos busy business district and has
now turned their attention to permitting.

The changes include increasing the number of available permits from 850 to about
1,000, having the permits be tied to a specific parking lot and increasing rates.
Some raised concerns about the impact to
low-wage workers particularly as downtown is known for its restaurant scene as
well as nonprofit employees. Still, the
council opted to proceed with hopes the

The San Carlos Airport is bracing for an


influx of charter flights this weekend
carrying passengers headed to
Sundays Super Bowl in Santa Clara.

San Mateo Countys small airport


in San Carlos is expected to do big
business this weekend as charter
reservations are way up leading to
Sundays Super Bowl in Santa Clara.
There has been a steady uptick in
flights this week with peak traffic

said Christopher St. Peter, San Mateo
County Airports assistant manager.
Flights will be coming in from
Mexico and Canada, he said, but most
will be coming from the Denver area

The
Federal

expected in the Bay Area this weekend.
Whether it will be the busiest week
in the airports history wont be
known until Monday or Tuesday

Division Manager Gretchen Kelly
said.
Although the FAA has put some

Fresh look coming to Millbrae Square


Shopping center to receive new paint, sign, landscaping and more
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

In an attempt to breath new life into a


downtown marketplace, the Millbrae
Square Shopping Center is slated to
receive a face-lift to update and beautify
the central commercial center.
Millbrae Square, 717 Broadway, will
soon undergo a variety of exterior
improvements, including a fresh coat of
paint, new lighting and signs, as well as
upgrades to the sidewalk and outdoor
arcade.
The Millbrae Planning Commission
unanimously approved the proposal to
revitalize the shopping center during a
meeting last month.
Planning Commissioner Catherine
Quigg said she believed the variety of
projects would rejuvenate the shopping
center which is home to Walgreens,
Starbucks, Trader Joes, Hallmark and
other retailers.
Its going to look very nice, its going
to update it, she said. Everybody wants
to go somewhere that is new and exciting.
The Kohls building, at 855 Broadway,
which has sat vacant since the department
store closed in 2014, will be excluded from
the renovation project, according to a city
report.
Planning commissioners voted in
November against a proposal to allow the
Central Peninsula Church to move into a
portion of the first and second floor of the
Kohls building.
Officials expressed concerns regarding
the lack of revenue which could be generated for the city by allowing a religious
group to fill a space they consider to be a

potential hub of economic activity.
Tonya Ward, the citys Community
Development director, said an anchor tenant for the Kohls building is still being
sought.
But to make the surrounding businesses
more appealing to potential patrons, the
rest of the storefronts spanning the retail
center will undergo a variety of exterior
improvements.
The proposed exterior remodel,
streetscape improvements, landscaping
and pedestrian amenities to the Millbrae
Square Shopping Center would enhance
the successful economic and pedestrian
activity of the Millbrae Square, said the
report.
Ward shared a similar perspective.
This is a welcome update to the shopping center, it will enhance the overall
experience of the patrons, as well as the
community, with the amenities provided at
the center, she said.
Millbrae Square owner Vickie Imbimbo
said she has submitted plans to begin construction and is hopeful work will get
underway as soon as possible.
The projects include painting the buildings tan, with off white and dark brown
accents, and adding a stone veneer band to
replace an existing blue tile accent strip at
the base of the wall running along the
perimeter of the storefronts.
The green awning along the building
facing Magnolia Avenue and Broadway
will be replaced with a new dark orange

fabric, and a suspended metal awning is


proposed to be attached to the facade of
Walgreens.
New LED light fixtures are set to be
installed under the awning, which will
offer a consistent color with the lighting
at the nearby Safeway, according to the
report.
Sidewalks will be resurfaced with new
concrete, and planters are set to be refaced
with a stone veneer, while new seating
areas will be built near the central and
southern end of the shopping center along
Broadway.
Five parking spaces in front of Paris
Baguette, Starbucks and Jamba Juice are
set to be removed to make space for new
seating areas.
Imbimbo has also proposed to hang a
new sign featuring bronze letting declaring Millbrae Square above the entrance
of the shopping center arcade walkway
facing Broadway.
Officials are hopeful the renovations
will enhance the commercial appeal of the
shopping center, located a short distance
from El Camino Real.
The proposed finishes would update the
multi-tenant commercial buildings and
complement the surrounding commercial
buildings, said the report. Street amenities, including but not limited to outdoor
seating, exterior lighting, street furniture
and new landscape, would help encourage
more pedestrian interest and create an
attractive destination for the public, while
further encouraging economic activity.
Quigg said she too hoped the project
would beautify the shopping center.
It needed to be done and Im glad they
did it, she said. Its going to look beautiful.

during the third enrollment period under President Barack
Obamas health care law, the states health insurance
exchange announced Thursday.
Covered California, the state-run health-insurance
exchange created under the federal Affordable Care Act,
said young adults are making up a growing share of new
enrollees. Strong enrollment by young people is crucial
to the success of Obamas health overhaul because they use
less health care, keeping costs lower for everyone.
Young adults, ages 18-34, made up 37 percent of new
sign-ups this year, up from 29 percent in the first year,
said Peter Lee, executive director of Covered California.

Senate Dems block energy


bill in impasse over Flint
By Matthew Daly
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Senate Democrats on


Thursday blocked a comprehensive energy
bill after majority Republicans balked over
hundreds of millions of dollars in emergency federal aid to Flint, Michigan, to fix
and replace the citys lead-contaminated
pipes.
Senate Democratic Leader Harry Reid said
that 100,000 people in Flint, Michigan,
have been poisoned, and Republicans do
nothing to help them. Nine thousand little children ... have been poisoned. Still,
Senate Republicans refuse to help.
The vote was 46-50, short of a number

Peace deal in reach, Obama:


U.S. to help Colombia rebuild H
By Josh Lederman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Nudging Colombia


toward a peace deal thats finally within
reach, President Barack Obama committed
the United States on Thursday to helping the
battle-scarred nation rebuild after half a century of guerrilla conflict.
Colombian President Juan Manuel Santos
came to the White House on the verge of a
historic truce with the Revolutionary Armed
Forces of Colombia, or FARC, that promises to end Latin Americas longest-running
armed conflict. Facing the daunting task of
reconstruction, Santos secured promises of
financial help from Obama, who said the
U.S. will be your partner in waging peace.
In short, a country that was on the brink
of collapse is now on the brink of peace,
Obama said, hosting Santos for a reception

after an Oval Office meeting. In Colombia today,


there is hope.
Obama said he planned
to ask Congress for some
$450 million in U. S.
assistance for Colombia
in his final budget, acceding to Santos request
Barack Obama that the U.S. increase its
aid to the country this
year. He announced that the 15-year-old
Plan Colombia, a $10 billion U.S. program
to fight insurgency and the narcotics trade,
would soon conclude. In its stead, Obama
said the U.S. would launch a new program
called Peace Colombia aimed at helping
reintegrate FARC members into society and
expand the governments reach into blighted areas that had long been ceded to the guerrilla group.

The teacher saga at
Burlingame High School
Editor,
There is overwhelming community support at Burlingame High School for Kevin
Nelson. In a couple of days, more than
2,000 students and parents wrote in with
stories of the good he has done for them or
their children. Many more showed up for
the school board meeting and asked the
board to let him stay at Burlingame High
School. It is time the San Mateo Union
High School District Board of Trustees listened and represented their community
instead of imposing decisions that are not
in the interests of students. It is time they
set aside politics and counsel the superintendent to let a good teacher do his job in
peace.

pedestrians, as well as motorists, for the


long lights to change when no trains have
been present due to the amount of trafc on
Broadway, California Drive and nearby
Carolan Avenue.
Here are my two suggestions for this
project: 1). Rename the project to
Broadway Grade Separation and Broadway
Caltrain Station to ensure the community
that the existing weekend-only train station is restored to daily service. There was
no mention of the station in the article. 2).
Do not widen California Drive. While not
shown in the image in the article, northbound California Drive was widened to
include two right-turn lanes in the 3-D rendering at Tuesdays meeting. It is difcult
enough for pedestrians to cross the one
free right-turning lane lets not double
the danger pedestrians face from motorists
who fail to watch out for their presence.

Removing good teachers


Editor,
I attended the San Mateo Union High
School District meeting where people got
up and spoke about Kevin Nelson, who the
superintendent has decided to transfer from
Burlingame High School. This is clearly a
political decision. The parents and community members who spoke on Mr. Nelsons
behalf thoughtfully and eloquently told the
community how much he has meant not
only as a teacher but as an important part
of the Burlingame High School community. If the superintendent follows through
with transferring Mr. Nelson because of
political reasons, this will reect poorly
on the superintendent and the San Mateo
Union High School District as a whole. If
we allow it to happen, it will reect poorly
on the Burlingame community.
Transferring good teachers out? Not on my
watch.

Belmont City Council plans


Editor,
Belmont residents with whom I converse
are very satised with the Carlmont
Shopping Center and the shops and businesses on Ralston Avenue close to El
Camino Real. I have not spoken to a single
resident who feels the need to tear up the
lower part of the commercial area and create
a phony, articial Belmont Village.
Obviously, outside real estate interests
carry more weight on the council than the
views of the residents.
I doubt whether or not the current councilmembers care about addressing some real
issues, long neglected by the current and
former councils. The streets in the city are
among the worst in the county, and the
neglect is obvious, even embarrassing.
Most Belmont residents love the smalltown feel and wish to maintain it.
Repairing some bad streets would be a great
rst step for the council to meet a real,
pressing need in the city.

Its all about the safety


Editor,
I take exception to the initial part of the
rst sentence of the Jan. 29 Daily Journal
article Rail bridge eyed for Broadway on
the selection of a preferred alignment for
the Broadway grade crossing of Caltrain in
Burlingame: To clear congestion at one of
the most clogged intersections along the
Peninsula.
My main concern has nothing to do with
congestion but everything to do with safety. There have been too many crashes at
this crossing and at many of the other 41
grade crossings of the Caltrain line.
Yes, trafc congestion may improve with
the construction of a grade separation, but
for certain it will continue. I have waited,

Neighborhood concerns in San Mateo


Editor,
In regards to Pop-up used car lot draws
concern: San Mateo considers Fourth
Avenue neighborhood and California laws
in the Feb. 2 edition of the Daily Journal,
San Mateo has had a problemof carsfor
saleparkedat this locationfor many years.
This is not new to San Mateo and Michael
Weinhauer will be very surprised to see
many of the other quality of life issues this
city has refused to x. San Mateo is a charter city, and we havea City Council that
can make an ordinanceto help improve our
residential street parking. There is plenty
of parking on Concar Drive, where Rite Aid
is located, that is blocked off and not being
used. It makes sense to have an area for
these cars to park and keep them off residential streets. But the city will come up
with some excuse why it cant be used.
Mr. Weinhauer will never have a place for
family or friends to park in front of his
house. He bought in the wrong city. The
city has refused to have an ordinance to
keep dump trucks and every kind of commercial truck as long as it is within vehicle
code size limit for parking on residential
streets. Its time for every homeowner to
get a petition going and have our elected
City Council do their job.

50,000 years but there is some differences of
opinion about if that estimate will be affected by man-made greenhouse gases.
The Earth may
have had about ve
ice ages, with the
heaviest one, before
the Pleistocene
epoch (the one that
started 2.6 million
years ago) even seeing ice reach the
equators. That one,
according to
researchers, was the
Cryogenian period,
and may have ended
because of greenhouse gases caused
by volcanoes. Outside of these ice ages, the
Earth has been almost jungle-like at times,
with no ice, and high temperatures. Many
who focus on man-made greenhouse gases
suggest we are ending this interglacial faster
than what would naturally occur. So there has
been much talk about climate change and sea
level rise, and our role in it.
However, the oceans dropped about 450
feet during the last ice age, revealing land
bridges from across the Bering Strait and to
Australia from Asia, and theres not much we
can do about historical climate change, considering its just a matter of time before
those snow caps melt and the oceans take
back huge portions our coastal land. Its
almost presumptuous for us to think having
our own personal day-to-day decisions like
purchasing an electric car or reducing our car
trips to the store will do much about it.
Before you re off emails about how Im a
heretic or a at-earther, consider that there
always contributors to climate change over
millions and billions of years. Volcanoes for
one. Meteorites, perhaps. Carbon emissions. Yes, there are causes for concern and
our recent reliance on fossil fuel is one. But
to think that we can point to the hottest year
on record as evidence of our impact is shortsighted since the rst ofcial record of temperatures was in 1659, with it picking up in
the 19th century when science caught up
with our desire to track the weather. All the
theories about the weather in previous years,
to prehistoric times, are just that, theories
and sometimes based on loose conjecture.
So yes, we can look at recent data to show
that the Earth is warming, but we are also
just now beginning to understand what that
means and what role we have in that.
Im not trying to say that we should not be
concerned by our impact, quite the opposite
in fact. There is absolutely no way that a rapidly growing population of humans does not
have a deleterious effect on our planet. And
the choices we make on how we travel from
place to place, what we purchase and consume, what we dig or drill out of the earth
and burn all have an impact. However, in the
larger context of our planet, our presence is
but one mere blip in time over billions of
years of climate change, global warming and
cooling and ever-changing tectonic plates
that we literally have no control over. Yet
successful species have found a way to adapt
to changing conditions and make decisions
that ensure the longevity of their society and
their descendants. The discussion about
whether climate change is real is certainly
interesting at times, but not very useful
when considering the larger context of the
history of our planet. However, the debate
about the causes of climate change is not as
important as adapting to it because, whatever the cause, it is happening. Its important
to think about that when discussing and contemplating our role on the planet, and exactly what we can do about it.

NEW YORK U.S. stocks posted


modest gains Thursday as investors
await Fridays closely watched jobs
report, which could offer insight about
the U.S. economy and help determine
whether the Federal Reserve raises interest rates again next month.
Many believe the likelihood of
another rate increase in March has faded
because of recent signs of weakness in
the global economy. That has sent the
dollar lower against other currencies, a
welcome change for U.S. exporters
whose overseas sales have been hurt by
the appreciation of the dollar over the
last year and a half.
The Dow Jones industrial average rose
79.92 points, or 0.5 percent, to
16,416.58. The Standard & Poors 500
index rose 2.92 points, or 0.2 percent,
to 1,915.45 and the Nasdaq composite
rose 5.32 points, or 0.1 percent, to
4,509.56.
Stocks oscillated between gains and
losses the whole day, and got some traction in the last couple hours of trading.
Industrial and materials companies were
among the biggest gainers, helped by a
weaker dollar.
Investors are getting ready for
Fridays payroll numbers. Economists

surveyed by FactSet forecast that U.S.


employers created 200,000 jobs in
January and the unemployment rate held
steady at 5 percent.
Over the past couple of weeks,
investors have scaled back expectations
that the Fed will continue raising interest rates amid signs that the global
slowdown in growth is beginning to
hurt the U.S. economy.
On Wednesday, a private survey found
that the U.S. service sector grew in
January at the slowest rate in nearly two
years. Fed fund futures, a security that
allows investors to bet on which way
the Fed will move interest rates, are
indicating that the next best chance the
Fed will raise rates is not until early
2017.
The market is starting to price in a
small chance of recession, not some
realistic chance, but enough of a chance
to give investors pause and reposition,
said Khoa Le, who co-heads a derivatives trading desk at Credit Suisse.
Diminished expectations of a March
Fed rate hike have continued to weaken
the dollar. The euro rose 0.9 percent to a
three-month high of $1.1208 while the
dollar fell 1.1 percent against the
Japanese yen to 116.79 yen.
Le said the large move in the dollar in

Drug exec takes the Fifth on


Capitol Hill, angers lawmakers
By Marcy Gordon
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Infuriating members of Congress, a smirking Martin


Shkreli took the Fifth at a Capitol Hill
hearing Thursday when asked about his
jacking up of drug prices, then
promptly went on Twitter and insulted
his questioners as imbeciles.
The brash, 32-year-old entrepreneur
who has been vilified as the new face
of pharmaceutical-industry greed was
summoned by the House Oversight and
Government Reform Committee,
which is investigating soaring prices
for critical medicines.
Four times, he intoned: On the
advice of counsel, I invoke my Fifth
Amendment privilege against selfincrimination and respectfully decline
to answer your question.
Lawmakers erupted. Rep. Elijah
Cummings of Maryland, the top
Democrat on the committee, told
Shkreli to wipe the smirk off his face.
I call this money blood money ...

coming out of the


pockets of hardw o r k i n g
Americans,
he
said, as Shkreli sat
through the lecture.
I know you are
smiling, but I am
very serious, sir,
Martin Shkreli Cummings said. I
truly believe you
can become a force of tremendous
good. All I ask is that you reflect on it.
No, I dont ask, I beg that you reflect
on it.
The former hedge fund manager with
a frat-boy swagger has been reviled in
recent months for buying Daraprim,
the only approved drug for a rare and
sometimes deadly parasitic infection,
and unapologetically raising its price
more than fiftyfold.
Shkreli is out on $5 million bail
after being arrested in New York in
December on securities-fraud charges
unrelated to the price increase.
Shkreli, wearing a sport jacket and
open-collar shirt, was dismissed less

than an hour into the hearing, but not


before Chairman Rep. Jason Chaffetz,
R-Utah, shouted down a request by
Shkrelis
attorney
to
speak.
Lawmakers instead took turns
denouncing his conduct and attitude.
Minutes after he left and even
before the hearing had ended
Shkreli thumbed his nose at the committee.
Hard to accept that these imbeciles
represent the people in our government, the former CEO of Turing
Pharmaceuticals tweeted.
Shkrelis
attorney
Benjamin
Brafman later said in his defense: He
meant no disrespect, but in truth,
statements made by some of the members of the committee were wrong,
unfair and difficult to listen to without
responding.
Shkreli calls himself the worlds
most eligible bachelor and the most
successful Albanian to ever walk the
face of this Earth. He strums his guitar
on YouTube and paid a reported $2 million for the only known copy of an
album by the Wu-Tang Clan.

LinkedIn shares tumble on weak 2016 forecast


By Brandon Bailey
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO LinkedIn


shares plunged as much as 28 percent
in after-hours trading Thursday after
the company reported better-thanexpected results for the fourth quarter
but provided a weak forecast for 2016.
The professional networking services adjusted earnings and revenue
beat Wall Streets estimates for the
last three months of 2015, thanks to
strong demand for its hiring and
recruiting software. But it issued a
forecast that was far below what analysts were expecting.
LinkedIn also said it will phase out
a new online advertising product that
hasnt worked out as planned, which
will cause it to forego roughly $50
million in near-term revenue.
Mountain View-based LinkedIn
Corp. reported a loss of $8.4 million,

compared with a $3 million profit a


year earlier. That amounted to a loss
of 6 cents a share in the latest quarter,
but the company said it earned 94
cents a share after adjusting for stock
compensation and other one-time
items. Analysts surveyed by FactSet
were expecting adjusted earnings of
78 cents a share on revenue of $857
million.
Fourth-quarter revenue rose 34 percent to $862 million.
Despite the strong finish for 2015,
the company disappointed investors
by forecasting adjusted earnings for
the current period will be 55 cents a
share on revenue of roughly $820
million. Analysts were expecting
first-quarter adjusted earnings of 75
cents a share on sales of $868 million.
The company also forecast revenue
for the full year will be $3.6 billion
to $3.65 billion, lower than analysts

estimates of $3. 9 billion. Among


other things, LinkedIn said growth in
a key segment of its Talent
Solutions division, which provides
software tools for employers and
recruiters, will slow from 30 percent
last year to mid-20 percent in 2016. It
blamed an economic downturn in
Europe and Asia.
The online company also said a new
advertising program called Lead
Accelerator would be discontinued
because it required more resources
than anticipated.
LinkedIn is often described as a
social-networking
service
like
Facebook or Twitter, which make
money primarily from digital ads. But
LinkedIn has a different business
model: It gets more than 60 percent of
its revenue from fees that employers
and recruiters pay to use its platform,
while advertising and premium subscriptions contribute the rest.

investors and companies who might


hold significant amounts of cash overseas.
Many investors were buying into
this thesis of a strong dollar, Le said.
Now that the Fed is less likely to raise
rates, we are seeing clients reposition.
U.S. government bond prices rose.
The yield on the 10-year Treasury note
fell to 1.85 percent from 1.89 percent.
In other company news, mobile video
camera maker GoPro plunged 93 cents,
or 9 percent, to $9.78 after the company
reported a wider-than-expected fourth
quarter loss. GoPro shares are down 46
percent in 2016.
Viacoms Class B shares rose 67
cents, or 1.5 percent, to $45.34 after
the company announced that its 92year-old majority shareholder, Sumner
Redstone, was stepping down as the
companys executive chairman to be
replaced by Viacom CEO Philippe
Dauman.
It was a usually quiet day for energy
commodities, which for several days
had experienced wild swings.
Benchmark U.S. crude edged down 56
cents to $31.72 a barrel on the New
York Mercantile Exchange. The contract
jumped 8 percent on Wednesday in New
York. Brent crude, a benchmark for
international oil prices, fell 58 cents to
$34.46 a barrel in London.

Symantec beats Street 3Q
forecasts, gets $500M investment
MOUNTAIN VIEW Shares of Symantec Corp. rose in
extended trading Thursday after the security software developer announced a $500 million investment from Silver
Lake and reported better-than-expected quarterly results.
The Mountain View-based company said it earned $170
million, or 25 cents per share, in its fiscal third quarter
ended Jan. 1. Earnings, adjusted for one-time gains and
costs, were 26 cents per share. A year earlier, Symantec
earned $222 million, or 32 cents per share.
The results exceeded Wall Street expectations. The average estimate of 16 analysts surveyed by Zacks Investment
Research was for earnings of 24 cents per share.
The company posted revenue of $909 million in the period, down from $970 million but also above Street forecasts. Ten analysts surveyed by Zacks expected $905.6
million.
Looking ahead to the fourth quarter, Symantec expects
adjusted earnings in the range of 24 cents to 27 cents per
share, with revenue of $885 million to $915 million.
Analysts expect earnings of 25 cents per share on revenue
of $901.9 million, according to FactSet.
Separately, Symantec said Silver Lake, a private equity
firm that invests in technology companies, is making a
$500 million investment in the company. Silver Lake
Managing Partner Ken Hao was named a director, expanding the board to 10 members.

IRS resolves computer problems after outage


WASHINGTON The IRS says it has resolved a computer system outage and is again accepting electronically filed
tax returns.
In a statement on Thursday, the agency says it had
resumed processing individual and business tax returns at
about 5 p.m. Eastern, a day after a hardware failure forced
the shutdown of several tax processing systems, including
the e-file system.
IRS Commissioner John Koskinen says taxpayers
should see little, if any, impact on their returns or refunds.
He says employees worked through the night to get the
system back online and apologized for the inconvenience.
The agency says taxpayers do not have to take any additional action due to the outage, even those who filed
returns electronically before or after the computer problems.

Clorox tops 2Q profit forecasts


OAKLAND Clorox Co. on Thursday reported fiscal
second-quarter net income of $149 million.
On a per-share basis, the Oakland-based company said it
had profit of $1.13. Earnings, adjusted to account for discontinued operations, were $1.14 per share.
The results surpassed Wall Street expectations. The average estimate of nine analysts surveyed by Zacks
Investment Research was for earnings of $1.05 per share.
The consumer products maker posted revenue of $1.35
billion in the period, matching Street forecasts.
Clorox expects full-year earnings to be $4.75 to $4.90
per share.

Oceanas Justin Ng throws Burlingames Kai Galvan to the mat during their match at 134 pounds. Late in the third period, Ng capitalized on

Two tie for Ocean crown


Oceana beats Burlingame; teams settle for co-championship
By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Its not often a wrestling dual meet comes


down to the final match of the night.
But as Oceanas Gabe Clark-Rimero and
Burlingames Arman Dizadji took the mat
for their 224-pound match, the math was
simple. Because Burlingame was guaranteed
six points because of an Oceana forfeit at

heavyweight, Oceanas Clark-Rimero needed to avoid being pinned to give his team a
chance to claim a piece of the Peninsula
Athletic Leagues Ocean Division championship.
Working against Clark-Rimero was the
fact he had lost his two previous two matches to Dizadji last season, but he didnt wait
long to prove that 2016 was going to be different.

Shortly after the opening whistle, ClarkRimero immediately dove in for the takedown. Not only did he gain control, he
quickly forced Dizadji to his back and it wasnt long before Clark-Rimero heard the
familiar thud of the referee smacking the
mat, indicating a pin.
The Oceana bench erupted in celebration
as the pin gave the Sharks 42-33 victory.

Cameras enhance Super Bowl broadcast


By Josh Dubow
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO With some 70 cameras


located from the pylons in the end zone to
those isolated on single players, the ability to
show plays from a 360-degree perspective and
tracking technology that determines how fast
and far players run, almost no aspect of the
Super Bowl will be out of reach for the CBS
crew.
The job for producer Lance Barrow and director Mike Arnold will be to make sure that all
those bells and whistles added for the biggest

rather than overshadow the football game.


Where you can get in trouble is you have
30 additional cameras and think youre going
to try to get all 30 of them on the air, Arnold
said. I just try to direct the game the way I
normally would. Maybe the extra cameras are
the cherry on top.
CBS will have quite a few cherries on this
Super Bowl Sunday broadcast.
The network will employ more than triple

the number of usual cameras for a regular season broadcast with the most notable additions
being the pylon cameras and those that present EyeVision 360. The network will have
enough cameras to have isolation shots on
everyone that matters and some that dont.
We dont want to miss anything, Barrow
said.
CBS is using eight custom-made pylon

around the stadium to offer a 360-degree perspective that can be frozen and revolved

Obama salutes
NBA champs at
the White House
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON A basketball enthusiast,


President Barack Obama applauded the Golden
State Warriors on Thursday and marveled at
how they are revolutionizing professional
basketball with what he described as a smallball nuclear lineup that specializes in great
shooting and passing.
The Warriors defeated the Cleveland
Cavaliers in last years NBA finals and are off
to a historically strong start in their quest to
repeat, sporting a 45-4 record so far this season.
Its beautiful to watch when theyre working on all cylinders, Obama said during a ceremony at the White House.
Obama, a big Chicago Bulls fan, couldnt
help but reference the great Bulls teams from
the 1990s. He jokingly told the Warriors at the
beginning of the ceremony that its rare to be
in the presence of guys who are part of one of
the greatest teams in NBA history.
So were pretty lucky today that weve got
one of those players in the house Steve
Kerr, Obama said, referring to the Warriors
coach, who also played on those Bulls teams.
Obama tried to mimic some of Stephen
Currys jumping up and down on the court
when hes playing particularly well, which
Curry did on several occasions the night
before, when he scored 51 points in a win over
the Washington Wizards. He was clowning,
Obama said.
The team presented Obama with the obligatory No. 44 team jersey, since he is the
nations 44th president. Kerr noted that Obama
would be a free agent at the end of the year.
Consider this a symbol of an offer thats
coming, Kerr said as he presented Obama with
the jersey and the president demonstrated his
shooting form.

Kentucky Derby prep season is warming up, and theres no hotter name in
horse racing than Bob Baffert.
He was even popular at the Super Bowl
on Thursday, gabbing for hours along
Radio Row at the Moscone Center in San
Francisco.
Just here for the day, and Im going
back to LA, Baffert said. And then come
back for the Super Bowl.
The place to be on Saturday is Santa
Anita Park in Arcadia, California, where
the trainer of Triple Crown winner
American Pharoah should come away
with a better idea of how talented some of
his new 3-year-olds are after the Robert B.
Lewis Stakes.

position with pick-6s in back-toback playoff games and Davis is
playing with a fractured forearm.
Much respect, say the Denver
Broncos.
But, also, pshaw!
In their view, the best linebackers in Super Bowl 50 are theirs.
Von Miller and DeMarcus Ware on
the outside, Danny Trevathan and
Brandon Marshall on the inside.
Between the edge rushers pounding the passer and the No Fly
Zone secondary locking down
receivers, Marshall and Trevathan
collected a combined 234 tackles,
three interceptions and 13 pass
breakups while helping Denver lead
the league in defense for the first
time in franchise history.
When starting safeties T.J. Ward
and Darian Stewart got hurt in the
AFC
championship
game,
Marshall and Trevathan found themselves covering Patriots wide

receivers on go routes.
Successfully converting all that
sideline-to-sideline speed into vertical velocity kept Tom Brady from
burning them deep and gave
them an appreciation for their starstudded secondary.
I told Chris, Now I know how it
feels to be a corner, Marshall said.
Because I was tired as hell after that
game.
They did a great job, Harris
said. Having two inside linebackers who can cover, thats crucial in
the NFL now the way the offenses
are. I mean, these two cats might be
the fastest linebackers in the
league. I dont know if the Panthers
have seen anyone faster from sideline to sideline than Danny and
Brandon. Those guys are moving.
Theyre tough, too.
Marshall played all season with a
broken screw in his right foot
which will have to be removed after
the Super Bowl. Hell also go for an
MRI to see if he needs surgery on
his right index finger, which he
used to poke the football from
Kansas Citys Jamaal Charles
grasp in Week 2, forcing the fumble
that Bradley Roby turned into a
scoop-and-score in the waning seconds.
Trevathan has an appointment

The return of Denver linebackers Danny Trevathan, left, and Brandon


Marshall give the Broncos a linebacking corps as daunting as any in the NFL.
with an oral surgeon after the Super
Bowl because hes been missing
two molars for two months. He
swallowed one and spat out the
other in a game at San Diego on
Dec. 6 when an O-lineman drove
him into the ground in a pileup.
Didnt have my mouthpiece, didnt have my chinstrap strapped and
it came loose, Trevathan said.
Dont do that anymore.

These are bumps and bruises compared to what Marshall and


Trevathan went through last offseason.
Trevathan played in just three
games in 2014 because of a trio of
injuries to his left knee, which he
fractured in August and again in
October before dislocating it in
December, requiring surgery.
Marshall suffered a dreaded

Lisfranc ligament injury in his


right foot late in the season and
underwent surgery in mid-March,
too late for him to have the hardware removed before the 2015 season. The titanium screw broke during training camp, however, causing excruciating pain that he feared
would send him to injured reserve in
August before it suddenly subsided.
Marshall and Trevathan were
rehab partners when Wade Phillips
arrived and changed Denvers 4-3
defensive system to a 3-4 scheme
that would put them on the field
together when they got healthy.
We worked hard together and it
just made our bond stronger,
Trevathan said. We were pushing
each other and both fighting to get
back.
And envisioning greatness.
I just felt we had good chemistry, Marshall said. I saw how
hungry he was, how hungry I was
and I just know from that, OK, were
going to be great.
Now, theyre preparing for the
game of their lives and maybe
their last one together, too.
Trevathan is an unrestricted free
agent in March and Marshall is a
restricted free agent.
Keeping us together would be
gold, Marshall said.

NFL will require teams to


talk to women for exec jobs
By Janie McCauley
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO NFL Commissioner


Roger Goodell will implement a Rooney
Rule requiring that women be interviewed for
executive positions with teams around the
league and in his own office, too.
Goodell made the announcement Thursday
in his opening remarks at the first NFL
Womens Summit, part of Super Bowl 50.
We believe in diversity, Goodell said. We
believe were better as an organization when
we have good people at the table. We have
great people at the table. Were also seeing it
on the field. ...
You can see that progress is being made and
our commitment is, we have something called
the Rooney Rule, which requires us to make
sure when we have an opening that on the
team or the league level that we are going to
interview a diverse slate of candidates,
Goodell said. Well, were going to make that
commitment and were going to formalize that
we, as a league, are going to do that for women
as well in all of our executive positions.
Again, were going to keep making progress
here and make a difference.
The Bills hired the NFLs first full-time
female assistant coach last month, Kathryn
Smith, as special teams quality control coach.
That move comes after Jen Welter coached
the Cardinals inside linebackers during
Arizonas training camp last summer, while
Sarah Thomas became the leagues first female
official this past season.
Sarah was our first female NFL official on
the field this year, Goodell said. She did a
fantastic job, and were very proud of her. We
also have people breaking into the coaching
ranks. Jen was the first coach last year. She set
a trend, and we now have a second coach with
the Buffalo Bills.

Goodells announcement immediately drew


attention.
The hurdles are there, former Secretary of
State Condoleezza Rice said. Part of the challenge of breaking through is to change traditional patterns of hiring and advancement. Its
not a question of people dont have merit or
they arent as good. ... I guarantee you there
are plenty of women and minorities who are
qualified for positions, but unless you actually
go outside to look, outside normal channels,
you wont find them, which is why the
Rooney Rule is very important. When youre
told you have to diversify your pool, you will
get some remarkable candidates within that
pool.
Liz Boardman, a senior client partner at the
recruitment firm Korn Ferry, believes such a
move by the NFL can only be a benefit and an
example for other businesses big or small to
diversify and change their hiring practices.
It shows fantastic progress and momentum. Its setting a trend for the rest of the
world. Thats what sports does, thats what the
NFL can do, Boardman said. The NFL has a
lot of high-ranking women and this just formalizes the effort they have put forward for
several years. It just continues their momentum in terms of leading the charge.
Former Oakland CEO Amy Trask, the NFLs
first female CEO, said on Twitter, I think this
should be the Al Davis rule, referring to the
late Raiders owner who put his faith in her
decades ago when he wasnt even required to do
so.
I am bothered and saddened that there is a
need for a rule to do what is right and what is
smart, Trask, now a CBS analyst and working
the Super Bowl, told the Associated Press. I
had the privilege and pleasure of working for a
man who needed no rule to evaluate people
without regard to race, ethnicity, gender, religion, and other such characteristics.

NFL briefs
AP Source: NFL planning
game next season in Mexico
SAN FRANCISCO The NFL is planning
to play a regular-season game in Mexico City
this year, with the Raiders hosting the
Texans.
A person familiar with the decision told the
Associated Press on Thursday that the NFL
will return to Mexico for the first time in 11
years. The person spoke on condition of
anonymity because the NFL has not
announced
the
game
officially.
Commissioner Roger Goodell is expected to
do so in his Super Bowl news conference
Friday.
A date for the game has not yet been determined; the NFL schedule comes out in the
spring.
ESPN.com first reported the Texans-Raiders
game would be played in Mexico City.
The Raiders, of course, are having stadium
issues in California, and the Texans have a
strong interest in the Mexican market.
The Raiders applied for relocation to Los
Angeles for the 2016 season, but league owners voted to allow the St. Louis Rams to
move, and also gave an option to the San
Diego Chargers to join the Rams in L.A. That
left the Raiders in an outdated stadium while
they try to work out something in Oakland.

CBS
Continued from page 11
closes or better illustrate what a quarterback
sees on the field.
The network also will have tracking devices
that can show how much separation a receiver
gets from a cornerback, how fast players are
running and how far they run over the course
of the game or on any given play.
CBS used a more primitive version of
EyeVision in the 2001 Super Bowl that provided a perspective that was about 180
degrees, leading to a telling replay of
Jermaine Lewis kickoff return for a touchdown for Baltimore. The more modern version
was used earlier this season for a
Thanksgiving game in Dallas that expertly
illustrated a touchdown run by Carolinas Cam
Newton.
You go into the game with a lot of
enhancements that you might not have in the
regular season but it always seems like it fits
well into the game, Barrow said. You wonder how youll get them in then once the game
starts then it always seems like theres a perfect moment in the game to do it so it
enhances the broadcast and doesnt get in the
way.

So playing a home game elsewhere, particularly in the potentially profitable Mexican


market, makes sense for the Raiders, too.
No NFL game has been played in Mexico
since a regular-season match between Arizona
and San Francisco in 2005 drew more than
103,000 to Azteca Stadium. The NFL also has
played seven preseason games there, none
since 2001.

TV deal means Las Vegas fans


wont miss Super Bowl after all
LAS VEGAS Las Vegas football fans
wont miss the Super Bowl after all.
Cox Communications says it struck a deal
with the local CBS affiliate Thursday, ending a bitter rate dispute between the cable
provider and KLAS-TV that had threatened
Sundays championship.
Both sides refused to release details on the
agreement, which reinstates the channel to
Coxs lineup. The station pulled it down
Saturday after five months of failed contract
negotiations.
The stations parent company, Nexstar
Broadcasting Group, wanted the cable giant
to pay more to carry its programming, but
Cox had balked at the costs.
That led to a public battle, with both sides
urging tens of thousands of Cox subscribers
to take action against the other.
Meanwhile, football fans were left scrambling to find backup plans for the big game.
Barrow said he believes it wont be long
until pylon cameras are standard fare on NFL
broadcasts just like the first-down line, the
time and score box and high-speed cameras
that make super slo mo possible.
CBS Sports Chairman Sean McManus said
he expects EyeVision to be used no more than
twice a quarter on Sunday as an added tool for
analyst Phil Simms to use on the broadcast.
Even for the viewer at home who doesnt
understand a lot about football, it really is a
great way for Phil to break down on why a
play did work or didnt work, McManus said.
The goal is to use it as often as it makes
sense and not overuse it.
The use of the pylon cameras depends on
how often there are plays at the boundary.
Simms considered himself a skeptic of pylon
cameras when first told about them but has
been won over by some of the shots they have
produced in the College Football Playoff and
NFL postseason.
When I first saw it, I said, Oh my gosh,
whens it going to end,b Simms said. But I
have to admit its pretty good. Its had a lot of
great shots and its told the story a lot of times
touchdown, no touchdown. ... My job is to
do this: When something happens on the
field I can tell you why. All the enhancements
maybe will give me the chance to tell the truth
easier.

Panthers are loaded with veterans


By Rob Maaddi
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN JOSE The Carolina Panthers are


older than you think.
Cam Newton and Luke Kuechly, the teams
cornerstone players, are young and still on
the rise.
But the surrounding cast is a bit older and
the roster is filled with veterans. The
Panthers had the NFLs second-oldest team
to start the season with an average age of
26.9.
Six of Carolinas starters are at least 30
years old. That doesnt count injured 34year-old cornerback Charles Tillman and
31-year-old nickelback Cortland Finnegan.
The wise, old vets are making sure
younger guys dont take this Super Bowl
appearance for granted because theres no
guarantee theyll be here again.
I look at this like its my only opportunity, defensive end Charles Johnson said.
You see guys retiring like crazy. You get
one chance and one chance only.
Johnson, who turns 30 in July, has spent
his entire nine-year career in Carolina. Hes

You dont get here every year. This is something that you
have to enjoy. Enjoy this process, but while youre here,
understand that it is a business trip, and its only good if you win.
Kurt Coleman, Panthers safety

been through the tough times such as the 214 season in 2010.
You dont know what you go through
until you get to a point like this, he said.
This is what all the hard work is for. Those
guys like Star Lotulelei and Kuechly are used
to winning division championships, but it
makes you humble going through a season
winning only two games and it makes you
focus on the task at hand.
Safety Roman Harper already won a Super
Bowl with the 2009 New Orleans Saints,
who beat Peyton Manning and the
Indianapolis Colts. The 33-year-old Harper,
who has the grayest hair on the team, has
stressed to teammates that simply getting
here isnt good enough.
Being on top of that mountain, its
tough to get there, Harper said. We just

have to put it together and finish. It doesnt


do us any good to come this far and cut it
short. We have to complete it.
The Panthers surprised everyone going
from 7-8-1 to 15-1. Newton and Kuechly are
star players, but many fans are just getting
to know the rest of the team.
Weve kind of crashed the party, coach
Ron Rivera said. Were kind of new to the
scene.
Newton, Kuechly, Lotulelei, Kawann
Short and Shaq Thompson are core players
who were drafted in the first or second
round. Each player is 26 years old or
younger. Josh Norman (28) had a breakout
year in his fifth season. Of the six, only
Newton plays offense.
The Panthers added several older players
who were castoffs from other teams.

Defensive end Jared Allen was acquired from


Chicago in October.
Safety Kurt Coleman bounced around the
league before coming to Carolina and having his best season. Left tackle Michael
Oher was signed after Tennessee released
him. Wide receiver Ted Ginn Jr. returned for
his second stint with the team after Arizona
cut him.
You dont get here every year, Coleman
said. This is something that you have to
enjoy. Enjoy this process, but while youre
here, understand that it is a business trip,
and its only good if you win.
Then theres linebacker Thomas Davis,
who turns 33 next month. Davis already has
overcome three torn ACLs. Last week, he
had surgery after breaking his arm in the
NFC championship game win over Arizona.
Nothing will keep Davis from playing
against Denver on Sunday. He knows it
could be his last chance to win a Super
Bowl.
Without a doubt, I will be there playing, Davis said. I know Im getting up
there in age and years, but Im really enjoying the moment right now.

Three shoot 65 to share lead at Phoenix Open


By John Nicholson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. Rickie Fowler


overcame some bad shots for a share of the
lead Thursday in the Waste Management
Phoenix Open. Phil Mickelson compounded
his mistakes and fell back.
After an hour-long frost delay at chilly TPC
Scottsdale, Fowler played
the first six holes in 5
under. A group behind,
Mickelson took the lead
at 5 under with a birdie on
his eighth hole.
While Fowler finished
with a 6-under 65 to tie
Shane Lowry and Hideki
Matsuyama for the lead in
Ricky Fowler the suspended first round,
Mickelson had a 69 after
dropping four strokes in a two-hole stretch.
I made some good putts to start, Fowler
said. Just kind of got everything going.
Made a couple of bad swings. Cost me a little
bit, but other than that, nice way to get off to
a good start.
Mickelson bogeyed the par-3 fourth after

hitting short and right and failing to reach


the green with his second, and unraveled with
a triple bogey on the par-4 fifth. He drove out
of bounds to the right, hit his second tee shot
into the right bunker and three-putted from
50 feet.
I hit a bad shot at the wrong time,
Mickelson said. Its the tightest hole out
there. You miss the fairway 5 yards left,
youre in the wash, in the hazard. You miss it
right of the bunker, youre out of bounds. ...
Im not going to dwell on the one bad one
because there were really a lot of good ones.
The best one was on the par-5 13th his
fourth hole of the day when he hit a 252yard hybrid approach to 2 1/2 feet to set up
an eagle.
Winless in 48 events since the 2013
British Open, the 45-year-old former Arizona
State player is working with swing coach
Andrew Getson after splitting with Butch
Harmon. Lefty tied for third two weeks ago at
La Quinta in his season debut and missed the
cut last week at Torrey Pines.
When you dont score as low as you feel
like youre playing, it can be frustrating, but
for me, I find it to be more encouraging that
Im making a lot of birdies, said Mickelson,

the tournament winner in 1996, 2005 and


2013.
Fowler also missed the cut at Torrey Pines
after winning the European Tour event in Abu
Dhabi the previous week. He has four worldwide victories in the last nine months.
I know I have been swinging well and
playing well, Fowler said. I just didnt
make anything last week.
Fowler opened with a birdie on the par-4
10th as the temperature crawled into the 40s,
holing a 16-foot putt. He made a 35-footer
on the 12th, two-putted for birdie on the
13th and made a 28-foot eagle putt on the
par-5 15th after hitting a 258-yard shot over
the water.
I had a good number in there, Fowler
said. Actually, put a 5-wood in play last
week, a new one.
The top-ranked player in the field at No. 4,
Fowler bogeyed the par-3 16th after drawing
an awkward lie in the right bunker. He birdied
the short par-4 17th, and bogeyed the par-4
18th after driving left into the water. On his
back nine, he got up-and-down for birdie
from a greenside bunker on the par-5 third
and closed with a 12-foot birdie putt on the
par-4 ninth.

Lowry birdied seven of his first 13 holes,


then bogeyed the next two.
I got to 7 under and just became a little bit
tense there, the Irishman said. Thats
something that I need to work on. ... Its a
bad mistake if you dont learn from it.
Matsuyama was in one of the last groups to
finish before play was stopped because of
darkness.
Indias Anirban Lahiri was a stroke back at
66, and Bryce Molder also was 5 under with
two holes left. He was one of 33 players who
failed to finish.
Bubba Watson opened with a 69, finishing
in fading light a day after saying he doesnt
like the renovated course and is only playing
the tournament out of loyalty to his sponsors. The two-time Masters champion tied
for second the last two seasons.
No tes : The crowd was estimated at
101,021. The first-round record of 118,461
was set last year with Tiger Woods in the
field. ... Defending champion Brooks
Koepka had a 67 playing alongside Watson.
... Brandt Snedeker, the winner Monday at
Torrey Pines, also had a 67. ... Jason Dufner
had a 71 in his first start since winning at La
Quinta.

Galvan would rally back to make it 6-5 after
two periods. Late in the third period, Galvan
took a 10-7 lead with a 2-point nearfall and
was working his way toward the pin.
Galvan made a mistake, however, and in
the blink of an eye, Ng had flipped Galvan
and eventually got the pin with about one
second left in the match.
There was some controversy about
whether Ng was using an illegal hold as he
squeezed for the pin, but the referee disagreed and the result stood, giving Oceana a
24-3 advantage.
He slipped for a quick second, Ng said
of the sudden reversal of fortune. I got really lucky.
The match at 140 saw both coaches use a
bit of gamesmanship. Neither Oceana coach
Mike Tang nor his counterpart Eric Botelho
wanted to show their hand too early, knowing that the other could make a counter
move.
Botelho finally sent out one of his best in
Jack Deasy. Tang countered with one of the
best in the state in Josue Gazo, who quickly
got Deasy in a cradle hold and pinned him
less than 30 seconds into the match to put
the Sharks up 30-3.
The Sharks then got another huge win at
147, where Andrew Shikora gutted out a win
over Max Gaines.
Gaines controlled the first period and
most of the second. He led 3-2 after the first
round and built a 6-4 lead midway through

the second. But Shikora, who was battling


an illness, rallied with an escape and a takedown to take a 7-6 going into the final period.
Shikora needed a timeout early in the third
and headed over the garbage can, believing
he was about to vomit. Tang came over and
got in his wrestlers face, challenging him
to finish strong.
Shikora heeded his coachs advice. He
earned five more points with a takedown and
near fall before finally pinning Gaines to
give Oceana a 36-3 lead.
That was huge. I didnt think [Shikora]
was going to get the pin, Tang said. He
needed that. Hes been battling the flu.
Burlingame finally got some much-needed points when Oceana forfeited at 154 and
then got a 10-9 win from Andrew Sloboda at
162 to cut the Panthers deficit to 36-12.
The Panthers crept closer, with Johnny
Sarbagh earning a 10-6 decision at 172 and
then picked up 12 more quick points when
Oceana forfeited at 184 and 197.
Suddenly, Burlingame was down just 3627. In reality, with Oceana forfeiting the
heavyweight match as well, Burlingame
was down 36-33 going into the ClarkRimero-Dizadji match at 222.
What a miracle, Tang said. That last
match (at 222), we just had to win.
Said Ng: The whole week, coach said we
had to be perfect today. We did make some
mistakes, but we pulled it out in the end.

Stewart to miss start


of final NASCAR season
By Jenna Fryer

Stewart will miss the start of his
nal NASCAR season after fracturing his back in an accident on an allterrain vehicle,
S t e wa r t - Ha a s
Racing
said
Thursday.
The three-time
NASCAR champion sustained a
burst fracture of
the L1 vertebra
Tony Stewart when he crashed
on an ATV
Sunday and he had surgery
Wednesday, the team said. A
timetable for Stewarts return has
not been determined, but SHR said
he is expected to make a full recovery and race this year.
Drivers report to Daytona next
week to begin preparations for the
season-opening Daytona 500 on
Feb. 21. An interim driver for the
No. 14 Chevrolet was not named
Thursday.

Denny Hamlin in 2013 suffered a


compression fracture to the same L1
vertebra and missed four races. But
even after his return, he struggled
with back pain the rest of the season.
Stewart will miss what was
expected to be his nal Daytona
500. He is 0-17 in the prestigious
race and spoke last month about
how its one of the few glaring holes
on his resume. Stewart, who turns
45 in May, plans to retire from
NASCAR competition at the end of
this year.
Stewart was with Greg Bife and
other NASCAR personalities on the
ATV outing in the Southern
California desert when he crashed.
The team said he was awake and alert
as he was taken to a hospital and he
was able to move all of his extremities.
Stewart ew to North Carolina late
Tuesday and remained hospitalized
Thursday following his surgery.
Bife was not present when
Stewart crashed but told SiriusXMs
NASCAR channel that we started
kind of hearing bits and pieces that
he hurt his back.

General say cuts


constrain Afghan
training missions
By Richard Lardner
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON The ability to


train and advise the still green
Afghan security forces will be
constrained if the U.S. troop level
is cut to 5,500 as President Barack
Obama has proposed, the senior
American
commander
in
Afghanistan said on Thursday.
Army Gen. John F. Campbell
told the Senate Armed Services
Committee that very little training will be done with fewer
American forces.
Campbell, who is expected to
retire soon, sparred with the committees chairman, Republican
Sen. John McCain of Arizona, and
other senators over the wisdom of
the troop reductions.
McCain, one of Obamas harshest critics on national security
issues, wanted to know whether
the troop number is adequate to
perform the training mission as
well as counterterrorism operations as Obama has said it would
be.
Campbell said much will depend
on how quickly the Afghan forces
improve. If they dont, he said,
the number of American troops

will most likely need to increase.


But Campbell, who is planning
to retire from military service,
said he is preparing to go down to
5,500 as I am ordered. He said
the decision to announce the troop
withdrawals was a policy decision
and not a military one.
Campbell acknowledged that
publicly revealing the troop cuts
could allow the enemy to wait us
out. At the same time, he said,
openly debating and disagreeing
with the decision hurts us as
well.
Ultimately the president makes
the decision, and thats the policy
that we follow, Campbell said.
We follow orders. If its not
immoral, (if) its not illegal, then
youve got to do to the best of
your ability to make sure that you
can accomplish the mission.
McCain said its unrealistic to
expect a reduced force to handle
the dual mission of training the
Afghans and counterterrorism.
This smaller American force will
inevitably be forced to shoulder a
higher level of risk to themselves,
to their mission and to the national security of the United States,
McCain said.
Initially, Obama said he would

Committee hearing on the Situation in Afghanistan on Capitol Hill.
trim the U.S. force in Afghanistan
to 5,500 troops by the end of last
year, and then down to 1,000 by
the end of 2016. But Obama backtracked, saying the situation
remained too fragile for such a
rapid withdrawal.
The current U.S. force of about
9,800 would stay in place through
most of 2016, Obama said in
October 2015 during remarks from
the Roosevelt Room in the White
House. The reduction to 5, 500
would occur by the end of 2016,
Obama said, although he didnt
specify exactly when. The smaller
force would still be expected to
handle the twin duties of training

the Afghans and counterterrorism.


I want to keep 9,800 as long as
I can before I drop down to
5,500, Campbell said.
Sen. Jack Reed, D-R.I., the committees ranking Democrat, agreed
with McCain that any further withdrawals of U.S. troops should be
based on the situation in
Afghanistan, using the military
phrase conditions based.
Reed also said he wants to hear
from the officer Obama selected to
replace Campbell as the U.S. commander in Afghanistan, Army Lt.
Gen. John Nicholson Jr. During a
hearing last week, Nicholson said
he would immediately conduct a

rigorous assessment of troop


requirements.
Reed
said
Nicholsons review should be
given extraordinary weight.
The
committee
approved
Nicholsons selection Thursday,
and the full Senate backed the
nomination on a voice vote later
in the day.
Obamas critics said leaving the
Afghans without enough American
military trainers would imperil the
gains made since 2002, when the
U.S. committed to rebuilding the
country. Nearly $64 billion has
been allotted so far for training
and equipping the Afghan army
and police.

Saudi official says kingdom ready to send troops to Syria


IS numbers go down in Iraq, Syria; up in Libya
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON New intelligence assessments show that the


number of Islamic State fighters
has dropped in Iraq and Syria but
is rising in Libya, a senior U.S.
defense official said Thursday.
According to the official,
reports suggest there are 19,00025,000 IS fighters in Iraq and

Syria, compared to an earlier


range of 20,000 to more than
30,000. The newly declassified
numbers back up recent comments from military commanders
and other defense officials who
have argued that the U. S. -led
coalition airstrikes are having an
impact on Islamic State militants
and causing them to lose ground
in both countries.

Hail, Caesar! a loving satire


By Jake Coyle
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

The Coen canon reaches a


crescendo or rather a warped
inversion of one in Hail,
Caesar! when the brothers assemble a quartet of religious leaders
from various faiths before Josh
Brolins 1950s movie studio
fixer Eddie Mannix. The scene

plays like a theological joke: the


Coen version of a priest and a
rabbi walk into a movie studio.
Does the depiction of Jesus
Christ cut the mustard? asks
Mannix, succinctly. His agenda is
to gain their approval for Capitol
Pictures latest Bible epic, a
sword-and-sandals movie led by
the dimwitted star Baird Whitlock
(George Clooney, looking partic-

ularly suited to golden age


Hollywood).
The question of how God should
be portrayed in the film a mere
quibble amid the madcap machinery of a Hollywood studio has
been put off. An early reel of the
movie leaves a tiny gap: Divine
presence to be shot, reads the
insert.
Its something like a summation

of Joel and Ethan Coens films:


Meaning is a missing frame,
human folly is the star and only
the dialogue is divine.
Hail, Caesar! part Barton
Fink, part A Serious Man is
by no means their best, but its in
some ways the Coens most essential. Having long made play-

things of old movie genres, their romp
through vintage Hollywood here is literal.
Its a loving satire and merciless ode to
moviemaking, where hapless souls serve
no higher power than the Hollywood
machine.
Their main character is the stone-face,
fedora-wearing Mannix, a bruising studio
executive who keeps the assembly line
humming and its contracted stars out of
the gossip pages. Hes based on a real and
mythic figure of the same name who ruthlessly toiled for Louis B. Mayers MGM.

confessional.
Among the tasks before him, per orders
from above, is squeezing the Western star
and genuine cowboy Hobie Doyle (newcomer Alden Ehrenreich, who steals the movie
with some of the best bad actor acting
youve ever seen) into Merrily We Dance,
a prestige drama from director Laurence
Laurentz (a terrific Ralph Fiennes), whose
directions to give a mirthless chuckle
or pronounce the line Would it twer so
simple confound Doyle.
The gulf between on-screen fiction and
off-screen reality is comically vast, none
more so than when star DeeAnna Moran
(Scarlett Johansson), having just shot an
elaborate Esther Williams-style aquatic
scene, jumps out of the pool, sheds her mermaid fin, lights a cigarette and bitterly
retorts in a thick Brooklyn accent: How am
I? Wet.
Moran is having a child with unknown

paternity another fire for Mannix to put


out. Twin-sister gossip columnists modeled
after Hedda Hopper (both played by Tilda
Swinton) are threatening to report something ominous about Baird from an older
film of his, On Wings as Eagles. And aviation giant Lockheed is trying to lure
Mannix away from the frivolity of Tinsel
Town.
But Mannixs biggest problem is finding
Baird, whos been kidnapped from the set by
a group of communist screenwriters who
call themselves The Future. Its the main
thread of the film, but Hail, Caesar! isnt
much occupied with main threads; theres
too much fun to be had.
Let loose on a 1951 backlot, the Coens
find a feast of satire and movie references
that come almost too easily to them, and
Hail, Caesar! slides toward becoming
more a parade of inspired parodies than one
of their more closely stitched odysseys. But

THE DAILY JOURNAL


as parade floats go, few could match some of
the lengthy sequences of Hail, Caesar!
like the dance scene, led by Channing Tatum
in an On the Town riff, where a bar full of
sailors sings and dances to No Dames.
Whatever strong-armed, money-driven
system that spawns such gleeful absurdity
cant be all bad. So when Mannix, with
shades of Ned Beatty in Network, supplies
Baird his come-to-Jesus moment You
have worth if you serve the picture! he
instructs there is, naturally, irony. But
theres also affection. As suggested by
Mannixs rival opportunity (the Lockheed
headhunter flashes a picture of an atom
bomb test), there are worse things to
believe in.
Hail, Caesar! a Universal release, is
rated PG by the Motion Picture Association
of America for moments of mild language,
violence and sensuality. Running time:
106 minutes. Three stars out of four.

Meet Hail, Caesar! breakout Alden Ehrenreich


By Lindsey Bahr
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LOS ANGELES This is my favorite


place, says Alden Ehrenreich.
Its 11 a.m. outside The Musso & Frank
Grill on a clear, crisp Los Angeles day, and
Ehrenreich is chatting about the previous
nights Hail, Caesar! premiere, where his
grandmother got to meet George Clooney. In
the film from Joel and Ethan Coen (out
Friday) he plays the fictional 1950s studio
system star Hobie Doyle, a cowboy with a
thick drawl and some serious rope skills. Its
the kind of out-of-nowhere, star-making,
steals-scenes-from-Clooney performance
that makes you want to know where youve
seen him before and when you might get to
again.
Its no wonder that the 26-year-old, whos
been compared to everyone from Jack
Nicholson to Leonardo DiCaprio, has
already caught the attention of the Coens,
Steven Spielberg, Francis Ford Coppola,
Woody Allen and Warren Beatty.
Anyone who already knows about
Ehrenreich has probably heard the too-goodto-be-true story about how Spielberg saw a
video of him at a Bat Mitzvah and decided to
set up a meeting at DreamWorks.
He got his first movie a few years later at
age 17 a leading role in Francis Ford
Coppolas Tetro, thanks to a fortuitous
meeting with legendary producer Fred Roos,
who assembled the breakout young ensembles for countless classics like The
Outsiders and American Graffiti.
He had just been signed by a manager I
trust. When she forwards me something, I
pay attention, said Roos. Francis and I

start a career. So at age 17, Ehrenreich suddenly found himself briefly living in Buenos
Aires with Coppola.
Hes such an individualist and hes so dedicated to trying to push the boundaries in
art, Ehrenreich said. I am so grateful that
he is the first person I got to spend a lot of
time around in the movie industry. Its all so
crazy.
Crazy is a word that comes up a lot with
Ehrenreich as he looks back on the past
decade. Hes appeared in a number of
Coppola clan projects, played Cate
Blanchetts estranged son in Woody Allens
Blue Jasmine, and led the Y.A. film
Beautiful Creatures.
But while he can appreciate working
alongside his idols, he knows the sheen of
their legends and their stories arent, ultimately, the most important thing.

ES S ENTIAL S TYLE: VINTAGE


AND ANTIQUE PURSES, AT THE
SAN FRANCISCO AIRPORT MUSEUM THROUGH JULY 2 2 . Purses have a
rich and varied history dating to the
medieval period. For centuries, bags used
to carry personal items served as an essential part of daily life. Rather than remaining utilitarian, purses evolved into a
sophisticated decorative art and fashion
accessory. Early bags demonstrate the creativity and skills of their makers from
metal and leatherwork to weaving, embroidery and knitting. Essential Style, at the
San Francisco Airport Museum, features an
assortment of antique and vintage bags
from the 18th to the 20th century from
dance purses to finely beaded bags,
embroidered petit point purses and alligator bags.
SEWING AND SWEETS. Historically,
both men and women wore purses attached
to their belts or fabric bands that hung
from the waist. After inside pockets were
introduced to male clothing at the end of
the 16th century, mens use of bags gradually declined. Purse styles became increasingly sophisticated during the 17th century, showcasing more complex shapes,
embroideries and trims. The aristocracy
often presented small gifts in elaborately
decorated purses. Other purses served as
sweet bags that held perfumed powder or
dried flowers and herbs. Some purses functioned as sewing kits, while others were
used as gaming bags to carry coins and
counters.
SILKS AND METALS. Common forms
in the 18th century included the drawstring
and pocketbook. Some purses had frames
made from a new metal alloy that mimicked
gold. Such bags were embroidered with
costly silk and metal threads using complex stitches. A number of workshops in
France produced exquisite beaded purses
employing up to 1,000 minuscule beads
per square inch. During the 19th century,
beaded bags prevailed. Extravagant materials, including tortoise shell and ivory,
were also used to fabricate purses. Ladies
continued to carry drawstring and frame
handbags as well as misers purses, which
held coins. To showcase their needlework
skills, women often crafted their own beaded and embroidered bags, which commonly
featured sentimental Victorian themes,
such as pastoral scenes and floral patterns.

purse was an integral item that no woman


left home without. Manufacturers offered
handbags to suit all occasions in an endless variety of imaginative designs.
During the 1920s and 30s, tiny dance
purses that dangled from the wrist contained a powder puff and mirror, allowing
fashionable, modern women to carry the
bare necessities for an evening out. Many
purses were fabricated from new plastics,
such as celluloid and Bakelite. A variety of
novelty purses took the shape of dogs,
cars, dolls, rocket ships and even military
caps. This stylish accessory remains an
indispensable component of female fashion.

Continued from page 1
Wednesday, Feb. 3, it will soon begin
accepting applications for the
Crestmoor Neighborhood Memorial
Scholarship Program, serving those
enrolled at community colleges and
four-year universities.
Patricia Bohm, a board member
responsible for crafting the scholarship program, said the financial
assistance service is designed as an
ongoing tribute to those in the 2010
explosion, which killed eight and
injured 66 residents of the Crestmoor
neighborhood.
We felt it was really important
this be a living memorial to the people who suffered through the devastation of the blast, and this would be
honoring them with a lasting tribute
in their memory, she said.
The scholarship marks one of the
first substantial investments the
foundation is able to make with the
nearly $70 million paid by the utility
company to benefit the San Bruno
community.
Students interested in pursuing the
scholarship do not necessarily have
to be San Bruno natives, but must be
able to prove a deep connection to
the citys community, per the criteria
for being considered.
College enrollment in the coming
fall, a track record of community
service, financial need, a history of
leadership and extracurricular activities, academic record as well as standardized test scores will also be considered when selecting recipients.
Not all members of the board
though were satisfied with the selec-

JAEGER
Continued from page 1
But when he came to fully understand
the agency provides services for
mostly women who are abused and
beaten, he asked himself: How can I
help?
By the time he was 16 he had already
interned with three investment funds.
With the help of his father, Jaeger created and now manages an investment
fund for CORA that he will donate to
the agency later this year after he graduates high school.
The fund launched with $60,000 and
has since grown to $85,000.
CORA ignited Jaeger to make a difference.
At a CORA shelter, Jaeger saw a boy
his own age with his little sister walking behind and it terrified him.
I always thought the family was

tion criteria, and urged doing away


with the consideration of standardized test scores.
Regina Stanback Stroud, president
of Skyline College in San Bruno and
also a board member, called SAT and
ACT scores a false meritocracy, and
considered them an inaccurate gauge
of who should receive the scholarship.
She said standardized test scores
frequently are biased according to
race and class, and in her career frequently encounters students who do
not test well but have the drive and
desire to be successful.
Students who may not be considered for more traditional scholarship
programs based on scholastic experience could be those who stand to gain
the most from the community foundations financial assistance, said
Stanback Stroud.
Board member Emily Roberts said
she agreed with many of her colleagues concerns.
I feel very strongly that we err on
the side of inclusion, said Roberts.
Bohm though said many of the
immune to the troubles of the world
like you see on television, Jaeger
said Thursday from New Jersey.
Though hed never seen domestic
violence firsthand, he knew he had to
help.
I live in a home filled with love.
The first time I volunteered at one of
CORAs shelters, I learned that, for
some, these relationships that Ive
always taken for granted are not necessarily the norm. I really believe that
once one is made aware of such a horrific and widespread problem, it
becomes natural to want to help. And
it does for me, Jaeger wrote in a statement.
In 2014, Jaeger traveled to New
York City to receive the Changemaker
Inspiration Award from Breakthrough
New York for his help to domestic violence survivors. He will again be honored for his commitment and passion
at CORAs annual Seeds of Hope Gala
May 5.
Jaeger aims to be an ally for the sur-

issues raised regarding test scores and


academic track record when judging
applicants were considered when the
selection criteria was established.
Leslie Hatamiya, executive director
of the foundation, added the selection
criteria was developed to consider a
variety of factors, and scholastic history would not be the sole determinant in who receives the scholarship.
Academic record should be a factor
that is considered, but one of many
factors, she said.
Board member John McGlothlin
added considering academic performance and test scores can be an effective way to reward students who have
worked hard and are seeking financial
assistance as recognition.
Ultimately,
Stanback
Stroud
acknowledged the thoughtfulness
that went into developing the criteria, despite some of her reservations.
I really commend you for thinking
through that because this is a hard nut
to crack, she said.
Applications for the scholarship
will be available on the foundations
website, and the deadline to express
interest is Friday, March 18. Winners
will be announced Friday, April 29.
In others news, board member Ben
Cohn said the foundation is narrowing down firms to hire which will be
responsible for investing $15 million of the restitution fund.
The preferred investment fund will
be identified in March, which will
pave the way for the community foundation taking control of the entire
$68.5 million fund from the city in
May, said Cohn.
The foundation board is still eyeing larger capital projects to finance
with the remaining roughly $54 million in the fund.
vivors of domestic violence especially considering the agencies that serve
them have scant resources.
He plans to continue to speak loudly about the issue and to encourage his
friends and family to do the same and
to become allies themselves.
He wants to let those who have suffered, or are suffering, know that there
are people who care and stand ready to
help.
Last year, Jaeger helped organize a
week of awareness at Woodside Priory
related to domestic violence. T-shirt
art created by survivors of domestic
violence were exhibited and students
were asked to respond by painting Tshirts themselves.
It was an opportunity to learn what
his fellow students had to say on the
topic of domestic violence.
I want to dedicate my life to make a
difference in this area, Jaeger said.

PARKING
Continued from page 1
ing up was because we were offering just an
incredibly good deal, Lim said. You want
to find that sweet spot where the rate is
such that its affordable to people, but also
gives people a reason to pause and think,
hey, is there another way for me to get
downtown or carpool? Get people to
think, do I really need to drive? Do I really need to get this permit? And if not, are
there alternatives ways? Can I take my
bike? Can I take Caltrain? Can I walk?
The new rules may be adopted later in
April as the council updates the citys fee
schedule, according to a staff report.
Instead of the current $126 per quarter
permit, which amounts to about $42 per
month and was good for a variety of parking lots, the council decided to charge
more for lots closest to the heart of downtown and begin charging at lots that were
previously free, according to the report.
Each permit is good for a 10-hour space
at a designated lot and the city plans to
begin selling them online. The Central
Parking Garage between Third and Fourth
avenues will be the priciest at $80 per

players, will take on the WWAFT in a game
of flag football.
I think were going to get national
attention from the celebrities and professional athletes that participate in the game;
the real stars of the game are the veterans,
said San Mateo Mayor Joe Goethals.
These are veterans that have made huge
sacrifices. Each of them has earned a place
on the team through their service to their
country.
CSM athletic director Andreas Wolf said
he expects upwards of 8,000 people to
attend the event. The bleachers overlooking the expanse of San Mateo County at
College Heights Stadium a view that
drew WWAFT founder and CEO Chris Visser
to the site can seat just short of 5,000
people. So, seating will be added at field
level to accommodate the expected draw. A
standing-room-only section will also be
available, where fans are encouraged to
view the game field side.

There may be some slight delays, however.

found about one-third of those using the


lots were low-wage workers such as dishwashers or baristas. Others self-identified
as higher-wage earners such as lawyers,
business owners or store managers. About
two-thirds of those approached indicated
they would be willing to pay $30 a month,
according to the report.
Lim and Councilwoman Maureen
Freschet raised concerns about lowincome workers and particularly those
employed by nonprofits. The council
directed staff to look into options for
making parking affordable for nonprofit
workers in downtown, Lim said.
These permit system adjustments is
another step in implementing the wellthought-out
Downtown
Parking
Management Plan, Lim said.
There was a lot of community input,
there was a lot of community meetings. I
think this will be a model for a lot of small
cities who have downtowns and parking
issues, Lim said. Its not just hey, lets
charge people X amount and see how it
works. [Staff] really put a lot of time and
effort into making sure its something
thats fair and works for everyone.

month. It will cost $50 per month for the


lot at Second Avenue and El Camino Real,
the Main Street Garage, the Transit Center
Garage and the lot underneath the tennis
courts at Central Park off Fifth Avenue.
Lots further from the center of downtown
will be $30 a month and include the
Kinkos and Worker Resource Center lots,
both off Fifth Avenue and purchased with
former redevelopment agency funds, as
well as the parking strip on Railroad
Avenue between Fifth and Ninth avenues,
according to the report.
Mayor Joe Goethals said the fees are reasonable as compared to other cities in the
Bay Area and having the permits attached
to specific garages could improve traffic
flow.
Hopefully this is a big step toward getting people to drive around less looking
for parking. When you have a monthly
parking permit, you know exactly which
lot youre going to, Goethals said. And
we have a relatively small downtown, so
its not a long walk from whichever lot
you chose.
The proposed changes are anticipated to
increase annual revenue from $380,000 to
$600,000 and could go toward operational
and capital improvements related to downtown parking, maintenance and creation

of additional spaces. Consultants have


predicted the city will need at least 400
new parking spaces in downtown to keep
up with demand over the next 10 years.
My hope is that in the short term, that
revenue can be used to maintain a clean,
safe downtown, Goethals said, adding
funds could support new technologies like
a parking app or real-time signs. In the
long term, some of the revenue will be set
aside to go towards [creating new] parking. And this year, were going to go
through the planning process for the redevelopment agency sites. So the Kinkos
lot may not be there much longer.
Goethals said some are considering
workforce housing projects at the now surface parking lot where Kinkos used to be,
as well as at the site directly across the
street used for parking and the nonprofit
Samaritan Houses Worker Resource
Center.
Parking in these two lots was previously free and the council mulled over whether
to begin charging drivers. After conducting two user surveys late last year, staff

Massachusetts, who started the WWAFT to


honor a family from his hometown who
lost a loved one on the terrorist attacks of
Sept. 11, 2001 began scouting San
Mateo in the days following last years
Super Bowl. He originally was interested in
procuring Brady Family Stadium at Serra
High School, but needed a larger facility.
I thought that would be kind of a fun
place to look first, Visser said. Its a terrific field but its just not big enough.
Again we drew almost 10,000 people to our
game at Scottsdale.
Upon being referred to CSM, Vissers
imagination was captured by the view.
As soon as I walked out on the field, I
said if theyll have us, were not going
to look for any other place, Visser said.
Two weeks following last years Super
Bowl, Visser reached an agreement with
CSM President Michael Claire to procure
the stadium. In terms of a rental price of the
facility, Visser said: CSM has been very,
very cooperative.
In addition to Snoop Dogg, the celebrity
team will feature former 49ers Derrick
Deese, William Floyd, Bill Romanowski,

overall game since the teams inception in
2012. In addition to playing prior to the
last four Super Bowls, it plays every year
on Memorial Day, Independence Day,
Veterans Day and 9/11.
The teams co-captain is BJ Ganem, a veteran of the U. S. Marines and double
amputee, who appeared on The Late Show
with David Letterman two years ago in the
week leading up to Super Bowl XLVIII.
Seven players from the Bay Area will also
be making their debut with the WWAFT,
including Dan Berschenski, a double
amputee currently doing graduate work at
Stanford University. Other Bay Area players include Brian Jengens, Konstantinos
Xigacos, Michael Kambic, Kevin Patton,

Stephen Estrada and David Christopher.


Most of these guys played high school
football so for them to have the chance
to go out and play against professional
football players its just an experience
of a lifetime, Visser said. And its the
experience of a lifetime for both teams.
Some of the largest events ever hosted at
College Heights Stadium were in the late
1990s, when CSM used to host state track
meets. However, many of the people counted in attendance for those events were the
athletes themselves. Saturdays event is
estimated to be the largest fan draw ever,
according to Wolf.
And organizing the event has been a citywide effort as well, Wolf said.
Particularly with the city of San Mateo,
the San Mateo Chamber of Commerce and
the College of San Mateo its a lot of
partners working together, Wolf said. Its
not just CSM. Were very excited to be
hosting this event but were all working
together to make this successful.
General admission is $10 for adults, and
free for children 12 and under, students and
military veterans. The game is from noon
to 3 p. m. Visit woundedwarrioramputeefootballteam.org to purchase tickets

into Half Moon Bay but the airport has less


amenities, Kelly said.
Once you get their, you are on your own.
Those who book charter flights have high
expectations, Kelly said about the remote
airport.
Extra vans and luggage carts are on hand
in San Carlos to shuttle the extra passengers.
The
Transportation
Security
Administration will also provide extra security at the airport during the Super Bowl.
Theres a higher alert for security, St.
Peter said.

Early Thursday morning, charter planes


filled the parking lot in front of the terminal building.
The airport is open 24 hours a day but
there havent been any reservations made
for after 9:30 p.m., at least not yet. That
depends on the FAA and how it manages air
traffic.
The San Carlos Airport is always busy,
St. Peter said. We go up and down with the
economy.
From single-passenger planes to jets carrying many passengers, the airport handles

about 150,000 takeoffs a year, he said.


Most of the normal traffic to and from the
airport comes from Southern California,
Las Vegas, Lake Tahoe, Oregon and
Washington state, St. Peter said.
But this weekend, the traffic will be from
Colorado with passengers likely decked out
in orange ready to root on Peyton Manning
and the Broncos as they battle Cam Newton
and the Panthers.
No flights are expected to come in from
North Carolina.
Its just too far away, St. Peter said.
