Belmont planners say OK to bigger homes


Planning Commission recommends larger homes for larger lots in zoning changes
By Samantha Weigel
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Owners of big Belmont lots


could soon be allowed to construct
larger homes after the Planning
Commission unanimously decided
to recommend the city update its
controversial single-family home
remodel rules.

Less than a week after hearing


dozens of passionate Belmont residents debate whether the city
should increase the cap on maximum home sizes, the commission
reconvened Monday night to
weigh in on an amendment to the
citys Zoning Ordinance.
The City Council will have the
final say, however, the Planning

Commission unanimously recommended increasing the maximum


home size cap to 5,000 square feet
for very large properties and generally tying home size to a sliding
scale based on lot size. For many
properties, the new cap may not
have a significant effect. The commission also heeded residents
concerns and suggested the size of

a garage still count toward the


total amount of space allowed in a
home.
The ongoing update to the ordinance prompted a range of opinions from residents, including
those who worried Belmonts
charm could be compromised by
McMansions, or big homes on
small lots. But proponents argued

there should be more flexibility


for owners of larger lots to
account for growing families.
Commissioner Steve Simpson
noted the city has sought to update
the rules to provide clarity and
ease restrictions for those looking toward appropriate remodels

The Federal Communications

approved rules that require internet

That could potentially make it

Industry groups representing the

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Hop Dogma Brewing Company


has grown from a local mans
hobby into an award-winning
brewery after earning a top honor
at this years world-renowned
Great American Beer Festival.
This month, the El Granadabased nano brewery took home a

silver medal for its craft rye beer


called Rock-Biter Roggenbier.
Notes of clove, banana and
pumpernickel make the traditional
German-style rye brew a funky
sight to behold, said Dan
Littlefield, founder of Hop Dogma.
Citing estimates that a new
brewery sprouts up in the United
States every 16 hours, Littlefield
said hes more confident than ever

that opening Hop Dogma just


three years ago was the right
move.
Its what you dream of what you
start thinking about becoming a
professional brewer, Littlefield
said, referring to the festival as the
industrys Super Bowl of beer competitions.

BAY CITY NEWS SERVICE

Homes sales in the Bay Area dipped


between August and September but were up

released Thursday by the research firm
CoreLogic.
The number of new and resale homes sold

3.3 percent from 8,245 in August but up 1.4
percent from 7,862 a year ago.
The median price followed the same pattern, with September prices down 1.7 percent to $654,000 from $665,000 in August,
but up 3. 8 percent from $630, 000 in
September 2015.
Sales for the summers June to September

Former Sequoia employee


takes plea for molestation
A former Sequoia High School
teachers aide will serve no more than
two years in prison
after pleading no
contest to having a
sexual relationship
with a 15-year-old
student.
G u s t a b o
Rodriguez, a 22year-old Redwood
City resident who
Gustabo
worked part time for
Rodriguez
the school, agreed
to take a plea deal in court Thursday,
according to prosecutors. He pleaded
no contest to two of the four felony
child molestation charges he originally faced, according to prosecutors.
Rodriguez is accused of orally copulating the underage male victim at his
home and videotaping himself shaving
the victims public hair. An anonymous person emailed the video to the
schools vice principal who notified
police July 29, 2016, according to
prosecutors.
Rodriguez is scheduled to return to
court Jan. 4 for imposition of sentence
and is in custody on $300,000 bail,
according to prosecutors.

Man gets three years for assault


A man who broke into a random
Pacifica couples home and assaulted
the husband while high on drugs was
sentenced to three years in prison and
ordered to pay nearly $14,000 in restitution.
Trevor Ryan Jodsaas, a 29-year-old
transient, expressed remorse in court
Thursday for his actions May 28,
2016, when he broke into the
strangers home around 4:50 a.m.,
according to prosecutors.
The victims heard Jodsaas and the
wife called 911 while the husband
attempted to scare him off. High on
oxycodone, Jodsaas smashed through
the front door and attacked the husband, who suffered nose fractures, two
black eyes and a torn hamstring. The
victim was eventually able to subdue
Jodsaas while police arrived, according
to prosecutors.
When asked why he broke in shortly
after the crime, Jodsaas allegedly said
Shenanigans; Im a dope fiend.
Jodsaas pleaded no contest in
September and during Thursdays sentencing, acknowledged drugs had
prompted his behavior and was willing
to seek treatment, according to prosecutors.
The judge believed he was sincere and

sentenced him to three years with 175
days credit for time served. The sentence could have been steeper had the
judge included a special allegation of
causing great bodily injury on top of
the felony assault charge, according to

Blue whale carcass


near Daly City beach
had skull fractures, trauma
A dozen scientists conducting a
necropsy Thursday on a blue whale carcass that washed ashore Wednesday off
the coast of Daly City found multiple
skull fractures, which they say are
indicative of blunt force trauma, but a
definitive cause of death has not yet
been determined.
The specimen has been confirmed as
a sub-adult male blue whale measuring
roughly 65 feet. The carcass was significantly degraded, according to the
Marine Mammal Center.
This was a rare opportunity to
examine an endangered blue whale, the
largest animal on Earth, and acquire
solid base line information to share
with our scientific partners, Marine
Mammal Center researcher Barbie
Halaska said Thursday evening in a
statement.
Scientists from the Marin Headlandsbased center, the San Francisco-based
California Academy of Sciences, the
Noyo Center from Fort Bragg and the
University of California at Davis met
this afternoon at a beach near Daisaku
Ikeda Canyon where the carcass lies.
They collected tissue samples,
including blubber and the pelvic bone.
The blue whale, a species that is
endangered, was spotted at about 12:30
p.m. Wednesday roughly a quarter-mile
from the Daly City shoreline. It drifted
closer to shore as the day went on,
Marine Mammal Center spokesman
Giancarlo Rulli said.

Charges changed against


alleged child molester
Prosecutors have changed charges
against a former Millbrae resident who
was extradited back to San Mateo
County to face allegations he molested
a relative nearly a decade ago.
Latu Kamisese Lavaki, 59, is facing
at least two counts of child molestation
for crimes he allegedly committed at
his Millbrae residence during the
Christmas break of the 2006-07 school
year, according to prosecutors.
Lavaki had originally faced felony
counts related to molesting a child 10

years or younger,
which carried possible life sentences if
c o n v i c t e d.
However,
on
Thursday, prosecutors changed the
charges as they were
not confident they
could prove the vicLatu Lavaki
tims age at the time
of the crime, said
Chief Deputy District Attorney Karen
Guidotti.
Lavaki pleaded not guilty to the new
charges and his bail was set at
$200,000; he was previously in custody without bail, Guidotti said.
Lavaki allegedly molested the victim
after luring her upstairs by promising
to give her a chocolate bar. Years later,
the victim disclosed to older female relatives who admitted they too had been
molested by Lavaki as far back as
1985. However, those cases fall outside the statue of limitations. The judge
set a hearing Dec. 2 for arguments
regarding the statue of limitations,
Guidotti said.

Police ID suspect shot by

Drivers frustrated by computer


failures at California DMV offices
By Jonathan J. Cooper
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SACRAMENTO Most of Californias 188 Department


of Motor Vehicle offices returned to offering full services
Thursday following a catastrophic computer failure that
crippled the DMVs operations for days.
Still, 21 offices that deal with customers faced limits
Thursday, including six that could not process drivers
licenses or vehicle registration matters.
Computer struggles that began Monday forced DMV customers around the state to wait out what officials have called
a perfect storm of multiple hard-drive failures. Some said
their lives were put on hold while they waited to replace
stolen identification cards or renew vehicle registrations on
the verge of expiring.
The departments disaster recovery systems were not
designed to handle such severe failures over a short period
of time, DMV spokesman Jaime Garza said in an email.
DMV officials say the department may waive late fees for
customers affected by the outage. Theyll have to fill out a
form or write a letter explaining why theyre late.
Kennidi Beatie made her third frustrating trip this week to
a California Department of Motor Vehicles office on
Wednesday, only to be told again that the DMVs computers
were still down. Her purse containing her drivers license
and checkbook was stolen from her burglarized vehicle on
Saturday, and her bank accounts remain frozen because she
had no drivers license to prove her identity.

U.S. charges 61 defendants in


call center scam based in India

Around the nation

WASHINGTON It can be a frightening


call to get and its a familiar one for thousands of Americans.
Callers posing as tax and immigration
agents are threatening arrest, deportation or
other punishment unless money is sent to
help clear up what they say is a deportation
warrant or to cover supposedly unpaid
income taxes.
The government says its a scam thats
tricked at least 15,000 people into shelling
out more than $300 million.
In a first-of-its-kind nationwide takedown, the Justice Department announced
charges Thursday against 61 defendants in
the United States and abroad in connection
with call center operations based in India.
As agents fanned out across the country to
make arrests, officials in Washington
advised the public that the callers on the

other end of the line are fraudsters and not


representatives of the United States government.

Trump hits at corrupt Hillary


Clinton; Mrs. Obama hugs her
By Julie Pace and Jon Lemire
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. Trailing with


time running out, Donald Trump denounced
both Hillary and Bill Clinton Thursday as
creatures of a corrupt political system who
would use another pass at the Oval Office to
enrich themselves at the expense of
American families. Clinton turned to popular
first lady Michelle Obama to rally voters in
North Carolina, a state that could deliver a
knockout blow to Trump.
Trump seized on newly public emails in
which longtime Bill Clinton aide Doug Band
describes overlapping relationships of the
Clintons global philanthropy and the familys private enrichment. The emails were
among thousands stolen from the private
account of a top Clinton aide, part of a hacking the Democratic campaign has blamed on
the Russians.
Mr. Band called the arrangement
unorthodox. The rest of us call it outright
corrupt, Trump declared during a rally in
Springfield, Ohio. If the Clintons were
willing to play this fast and loose with their

enterprise when they


werent in the White
House, just imagine what
theyll do in the Oval
Office.
Band wrote the 2011
memo to defend his firm,
Teneo, describing how he
encouraged his clients to
Hillary Clinton contribute to the foundation and provide consulting and speaking gigs for Bill Clinton.
Some of his work included obtaining inkind services for the president and his family
for personal travel, hospitality, vacation
and the like.
Clinton made no mention of the revelations as she campaigned alongside Mrs.
Obama, their first joint appearance of the
campaign. The first lady has emerged as one
of Clintons most powerful surrogates, passionately touting her experience and
denouncing Trump as too divisive and thinskinned for the White House.
We want someone who is a unifying force
in this country, someone who sees our differences not as a threat but as a blessing, Mrs.

Obama said as she addressed an enthusiastic,
11,000-person crowd, one of Clintons
biggest of the campaign. Trump often points
out that his crowds are generally larger than
his rivals.
Mrs. Obama also accused Trumps campaign of trying to depress voter turnout and
panned his provocative assertion that the
results of the Nov. 8 contest may be rigged.
Just for the record, in this country, the
United States of America, the voters decide
elections, the first lady said. Theyve
always decided.

With a lead in the race for weeks, Clintons


campaign is concerned that her advantage
could prompt some of her backers to stay
home on Election Day or cast protest votes
for a third-party candidate. Nearly all of her
recent events have been in states where early
voting is already underway, aimed at using
the rallies to prompt supporters to bank their
votes now.
Following her rally with Mrs. Obama,
Clinton greeted students at an early voting
site at University of North CarolinaGreensboro.

Health law consumers face least choice in programs history


By Meghan Hoyer
and Ricardo Alonso-Zaldivar
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Americans in the health


insurance markets created by President
Barack Obamas law will have less choice
next year than any time since the program
started, a new county-level analysis for the
Associated Press has found.
The analysis by AP and consulting firm
Avalere Health found that about one-third of
U.S. counties will have only one health

marketplace insurer next year. Thats more


than 1,000 counties in 26 states roughly
double the number of counties in 2014, the
first year of coverage through the program.
With insurance notices for 2017 in the
mail, families are already facing difficult
choices, even weighing whether to stay
covered.
At this point we are at a loss, said Ryan
Robinson of Phoenix. We dont know
what the next step is. He and his wife,
Nicole, only have plans from one insurer
available next year, and the company doesnt appear to cover an expensive immune-

system medication for their 11-year-old


daughter.
Phoenix is the market hardest hit by
insurer exits, shrinking from nine carriers
to one. With many other communities
affected, however, the problem of dwindling choice may create even bigger political headaches than the rising premiums
announced earlier this week.
Largely as a result of the Affordable Care
Act, the nations uninsured rate has dropped
to a historically low level, less than 9 percent. But the program hasnt yet found stable footing, and it remains politically divi-

sive. Insurer participation rose in 2015 and


2016, only to plunge.
Dwindling choice could be a trickier issue
than rising premiums for the Obama administration and advocates of the 2010 law,
including Democratic presidential candidate
Hillary Clinton.
Most customers get financial assistance,
and their subsidies are designed to rise
along with premiums, which are increasing
an average of 25 percent in states served by
HealthCare.gov. But there is no comparable
safety valve for disruptions caused by insurers bailing out.

Experts uncover hidden


layers of Jesus tomb site
JERUSALEM In the innermost chamber of the site said to be the tomb of Jesus,
a restoration team has peeled away a marble
layer for the first time in centuries in an
effort to reach what it believes is the original rock surface where Jesus body was laid.
Many historians have long believed that
the original cave, identified a few centuries
after Jesus death as his tomb, was obliterated ages ago.
But an archaeologist accompanying the
restoration team said ground penetrating
radar tests determined that cave walls are in
fact standing at a height of six feet and
connected to bedrock behind the marbled panels of the chamber at the center of
Jerusalems Church of the Holy Sepulchre.
What was found, said National
Geographic archaeologist Fredrik Hiebert,
is astonishing.

TOKYO Senior officials from Japan,
the United States and South Korea agreed
Thursday to step up pressure on North

Their pledge comes just two days after
U.S. National Intelligence Director James

The deputy foreign ministers who held

Ladies! Have you been wondering how to
get your retired or partly retired man out of
the house and occupied with some useful
activity? The solution is to have him join
a local branch of So ns i n Reti rement,
more familiarly known as SIR.
SIR was founded nearly 60 years ago in
San Mateo by Dami an Rey no l ds , a
retired civil engineer, and three friends
meeting over coffee. Now there are 15,500
members, retired from all lines of work, in
133 branches located all around northern
California. It is now a nonprot, public
benet organization with a state level governing body.
Presently the Dami an Rey no l ds
Branch No . 1 has about 150 members.
Along with two other SIR branches,
Branch No.1 meets at the San Mateo
El ks Lo dg e in San Mateo. Branch 1
meets on the second Wednesday of the
month; Branch 118, on the fourth
Wednesday; and Branch 142, on the rst
Thursday. The November luncheon meeting
of Branch 1 will be its 700th. Cost is only
$25 annually plus the price of a meal, currently less than $20 in many locations.
The main purpose of SIR is to provide
opportunities for gentlemen to meet, to
make new friends and to promote independence and dignity in retirement. Members
enjoy participating in a variety of activities.
If you think you would be interested in
joining Branch 1, you may contact

Rent control on the ballot


Editor,
If you will be voting regarding
one of the rent control measures in
San Mateo or Burlingame, please
consider this. Have you ever owned
a business, sold a car or a bicycle
or had a garage sale? If so, how
would you feel if your neighbors
were allowed to determine what you
could charge in your business or
for what you could sell your car,
bike or old tennis racquet. If you
believe that would be wrong and an
infringement on your freedoms
then you must vote against these
measures. No matter how the rent
control proponents try to spin it
they are trying to restrict how a
private business operates and what
it can charge. This is a highly
emotional issue but we should not
let our emotions allow us to trample one of the basic freedoms this
country is based on.
So, again, if you believe that the
government has no right to interfere with your legal, private business dealings then, regardless of
your sentiments, you must vote no
on these measures.

A moral look at Measure Q


Editor,
I am one of the signatories for
Measure Q, an important, although
imperfect measure. I understand the
reasons why many will disagree
with it and I respect their opinions.However, I feel compelled, as
a religious leader, to help stem the
tide of constant displacement and
unjust rent hikes that are tearing at
the fabric of our community and
further marginalizing the most vulnerable.
I believe the housing crisis in
the Bay Area is the most threatening social issue we face it is
affecting every area of life. It is
bringing into sharp relief the
issues of race and class, who matters and who doesnt, and it is
demanding that we decide what
kind of community we want to be.
The vitriol that has tainted the
civic discussions has divided people along lines that alienate us
from one another and shut down
our ability to hear real concerns on
both sides.
Clearly the housing crisis needs
to be addressed from a variety of
angles and demands multiple solutions. Last month, I helped convene over 40 clergy members to
meet with the county on what congregations across San Mateo
County could do to help mitigate
this crisis. We are in a housing crisis with families exiting our city at
an alarming rate, destabilizing and
dehumanizing these families and
our city. For me, the real crisis is a
moral one one in which we must

Harrison, Garcia for Sequoia


Healthcare District board
Editor,
Art Faro was CEO of Sequoia
Hospital when a $29 million
decit forced its sale to white
knight CHW (now Dignity
Health). Brent Britschgi spearheaded this wise choice. As directors on the SHD board, Art and
Katie Kane implemented the morphing of the district from hospital to health care, engaging in
charitable giving in an attempt to
justify continued collection of
property taxes. At the turn of the
century, they ignored the San
Mateo County Civil Grand Jury
which questioned their legitimacy
and suggested that the district stop
collecting those taxes unless voters approved their new purpose.
Kim Grifn, elected in 2008,
joined Faro and Kane as they continued to ignore other grand juries
and the Local Agency Formation
Commission and opposed efforts
to resolve the legitimacy issue.
This trio receives personal satisfaction from their contribution of
OPM to worthy charities. This is
the lifeblood of incumbency. In
December 2013, this trio voted to
increase benets for sitting
directors. Six months later, the
board had second thoughts and
decided that they had erred. These
three directors kept $5,400 in benets collected in error. Candidates
Harland Harrison and Lois Garcia
know the history of the district.
They will foster true transparency
and seek the election which the
incumbents have avoided. Please

Redwood City protests


Editor,
Imbalanced development
growth, trafc, displacement of
people, gentrication, skyrocketing rents these are just some of
the issues which propelled over
100 people on the Peninsula to
march in Redwood City Saturday,
Oct. 15.
While many of us are experiencing the same concerns, residents
there feel the squeeze even more,
with heightened worries over continued dense projects, and the closure of affordable homes in
Docktown. Feeling ignored at the

city level, frustrated Redwood City


residents planned a demonstration
to amplify the voices of the people
for all area city councils to hear,
and perhaps even one senator.
In reference to the umbrella
development plan, which has
stirred up this muck, one sign read,
Jerry Hill, do not forsake your
constituents for the nightmare of
Plan Bay Area! Another sign
acknowledged that the promise to
provide more affordable housing
has fallen at as more people are
forced to move far away. It simply
stated, Stop Displacement Now!
The imbalance of the development
we are seeing is coming to a head,
and the peoples movement is
gaining momentum.
At some point, if the emperor is
wearing no clothes, we all have to
agree he is naked and work together to dress him. City councils need
take to a break from meeting with
developers and, instead, break out
their sewing needles.

As young professionals living
in the Bay Area, we have serious
concerns about the future. Housing
costs are skyrocketing, our transit
systems remain inadequate and
many of us struggle with low-wage
jobs and student debt. Our generation needs proven leaders in
Sacramento who possess a clear
vision and an unwavering commitment to tackling these challenges.
For these reasons, the political
organizations we represent both
enthusiastically endorsed Marc
Berman for the California
Assemblys 24th District. He has
also been endorsed by the
California Young Democrats,
Equality California, incumbent
Assemblyman Rich Gordon, Lt.
Gov. Gavin Newsom, State
Treasurer John Chiang and many
others. As a Palo Alto councilman,
Marc has worked to raise the minimum wage, overhaul and upgrade
the citys infrastructure and address
the housing crisis for people at all
levels of affordability. We know
Marc will remain fully dedicated to
our regions many challenges. We,
therefore, strongly encourage voters to choose Marc Berman.

Proposition 51: NO. Authorizes $9 billion in


general obligation bonds for public school
buildings, charter schools, vocational education
facilities and community college campuses.The
bonds would be paid off over 35 years at a cost
of about $17.6 billion, including interest. There
has not been a state bond for schools facilities
since 2006 so it may seem as if we are ready for
a new one. This proposition would provide
matching funds for local school districts but
there is a provision that removes the ability of
local school districts to pass on fees to
developers of other projects such as office
buildings or housing to pay for school
construction. While many districts pass local
bond measures, this would allow for some to
get state funding as well but there is no
guarantee that will happen and would inhibit
their ability to require local developers to pay for
their impact on schools. In an area such as San
Mateo County, this will provide a hardship
because of our population growth. Statewide
school bonds help schools. The Legislature
should place one on the ballot that does not
preclude local development fees. VOTE NO.

children, even English speakers. In our growing


multilingual world, more emphasis should be
placed on language learning for all students.
Local school districts can determine what works
best for them. VOTE YES.
Proposition 59: NO. A nonbinding measure
that asks whether California lawmakers should
push for an amendment to the U.S. Constitution
that would overturn the Citizens United
Supreme Court case, which threw out
restrictions on corporate and union political
contributions. You may agree with need to
overturn Citizens United, but this proposition
will not do that. Its a feel-good proposition with
absolutely no teeth. VOTE NO.
Proposition 60: NO. Requires porn actors to
wear condoms while filming and producers to
pay for vaccinations and medical exams for
porn actors. Occupational safety is an important
component of government but this ballot
initiative goes too far in already self-regulated
industry. VOTE NO.

Proposition 52: YES. Extends a law passed by


the state Legislature that imposes fees on
hospitals to fund health care for low-income
Californians through the states Medi-Cal
program.The fees help the state receive federal
matching dollars but have been taken by the
Legislature during state budget shortfalls.
Proposition 52 would make the fee and the law
permanent, making it harder for the Legislature
to use the money for other purposes.While the
Legislature has extended this law in the past,
and will likely do so in the future, this
proposition disallows borrowing from the fund
for other purposes, which the Legislature may
not stipulate in the future. VOTE YES.

Proposition 61: NO. Prohibits the state from


paying more than the Department of Veterans
Affairs for prescription drugs. That may sound
good, but the reason the VA has lower prices
than others is that it negotiates. It does not list
the actual price of some drugs because of
contracts with the drug manufacturers so state
programs for prisoners, retired state workers
and Medi-Cal recipients may not get the VA
price.There is a chance drug manufacturers may
raise prices for the VA if forced to sell at the same
price for other programs and some drugs may
no longer be available in the state if prices dont
meet companies needs. Forcing lower prices
may also take money away from research and
development. Rising drug prices are a problem
but this proposition is not the answer.VOTE NO.

Proposition 53: NO. Requires voter approval


before revenue bonds exceeding $2 billion can
be issued. While its main proponent, a wealthy
Stockton farmer and businessman, says the
ballot initiative is not solely aimed at blocking
Gov. Jerry Browns Delta tunnel plan to divert
water to Southern California, it would largely
affect that project and others such as highspeed rail. It also has the possibility of snaring
a host of other projects with a price tag of more
than $2 billion and require a statewide vote
before construction could begin. It would add
another layer to large state and some local
construction projects and has the possibility of
delaying them. If the goal is to stop the Delta
tunnel project, the focus should have been on
that. VOTE NO.

Proposition 62: NO. Repeals the death penalty


in California and replaces it with a maximum
sentence of life in prison without parole. This
ballot initiative would apply retroactively to
current death row inmates. While nearly
everyone can agree that the states death
penalty system is no longer working, much of
that can be addressed through Proposition 66,
which would speed up the process through a
variety of measures. The death penalty is a
terrible punishment for a terrible crime and
should only be considered for the most heinous
of crimes. It is also used as a tool for prosecutors
to speed up criminal proceedings by using it
as leverage for lower pleas. VOTE NO.

Proposition 54: YES. Requires the Legislature


to publish bills for at least 72 hours before a
vote and to post videos of legislative
proceedings online. While opponents suggest
this ballot initiative would squash last-minute
deal-making and possibly even promote
lobbying by providing three days of public
review before a bill has a vote, it would also
allow for more public review and even more
time for legislators to read on what they are
voting. Legislators could accommodate this
change by simply reconfiguring their schedules.
It is a small price to pay for more transparency.
VOTE YES.
Proposition 55: YES. Voters first approved
higher tax rates for those making more than
$250,000 and couples making more than
$500,000 in 2012 with the passage of
Proposition 30. That ballot initiative included a
quarter-cent sales tax increase to help make up
for the states budget shortfall. Proponents of
Proposition 55 wisely dropped the sales tax and
instead focused on the income tax for high
income earners. This ballot initiative would
extend it for another 12 years, raising about $4
billion to $9 billion per year for schools,
community colleges, Medi-Cal and budget
reserves. VOTE YES.
Proposition 56: NO. Raises cigarette taxes by
$2 to $2.87 per pack and hikes taxes on other
tobacco products and nicotine products used
with electronic cigarettes. Money raised, about
$1 billion, would go toward low-income health
care. Tobacco taxes are regressive and hit lowincome residents most. If this tax raises intent
is to discourage smoking, it should not also draw
tax revenue from electronic cigarettes, which
many use as a way to stop smoking. VOTE NO.
Proposition 57: NO. Gives corrections officials
more say in when criminals are released and
strips prosecutors of the power to decide when
juveniles should be tried as adults. Promoted
by Gov. Jerry Brown, it is another measure to
reduce the states prison population as
mandated by federal judges.The state has spent
significant effort in recent years, starting with
realignment in 2011 which shifted many
state prisoners to county jails to reduce
prison population. In 2014, California voters
passed Proposition 47, which reduced penalties
for certain crimes.This initiative would take it a
step further and allow for earlier parole aside
from sentencing enhancements for gang
affiliation or use of a firearm. The state is still
absorbing and determining the effects of
Proposition 47 and we should wait before
allowing more prisoners into parole. It would
also take power away from local prosecutors
and judges and place it in the hands of state
officials. VOTE NO.
Proposition 58: YES. Gives school districts the
option of bringing back bilingual education by
rolling back a voter-approved 1998 ban on
teaching English learners in any language other
than English. Much has changed in 18 years and
this initiative would allow for local school
districts to employ bilingual education to more

Proposition 63: NO. Enacts several gun-control


measures, including background checks for
ammunition sales and a ban on high-capacity
magazines. California lawmakers acted quickly
this summer to put a raft of gun control bills on
the governors desk and six were signed into
law. This proposition mimics much of the
previously passed legislation and adds measures
the governor rightly vetoed. VOTE NO.
Proposition 64: YES. Legalizes marijuana use
and possession for those 21 and older while
creating standards for licensing. Sales and
cultivation taxes would go to youth programs,
environmental protection and law
enforcement. This ballot initiative allows local
governments to control where businesses are
located or even ban them. Would reduce
populations of local jails and state prisons for
marijuana-related crimes while putting money
toward studies on the initiatives effectiveness,
how to determine whether someone is driving
while impaired and the risks and benefits of
medical marijuana, along with grants for
services such as job placement or substance
abuse rehabilitation. VOTE YES.
Proposition 65: NO. Requires a 10-cent grocery
bag fee be used for environmental programs,
rather than to grocers and other retail stores.
Promoted by opponents of Proposition 67,
which would enact a statewide ban on singleuse plastic grocery bags and require a fee for
paper and reusable plastic bags. This
proposition sounds good on the surface since
it would seem as if money from the fee should
go to environmental programs, however, if it
receives more votes than Proposition 67, there
would be no state law to which this initiative
would apply so there would be no statewide
plastic bag ban. VOTE NO.
Proposition 66: YES. Speeds up the appeals
process so death row inmates are executed
more quickly.While nearly everyone can agree
that the states death penalty system is no
longer working, this ballot initiative would
mend it by speeding up the process through a
variety of measures. The death penalty is a
terrible punishment for a terrible crime and
should only be considered for the most heinous
of crimes. It is also used as a tool for prosecutors
to speed up criminal proceedings by using it
as leverage for lower pleas. VOTE YES.
Proposition 67: YES. Enacts a statewide ban
on single-use plastic grocery bags and requires
large retailers to charge at least 10 cents for
recycled paper bags and reusable bags. This
initiative is referendum on Senate Bill 270, which
enacted a statewide ban on single-use plastic
bags at retailers meaning if it passes, the bill
goes into effect. While some may think money
from the fee should go to environmental
programs as outlined in Proposition 65, that
initiative would have no state law for a ban to
go into effect. Having the fee go to retailers was
a way to ameliorate the impact of changing a
key part of retailers business. Perhaps the fees
benefit can be revisited a few years after the
legislation goes into effect and the impact is
less. VOTE YES.

Stock indexes slip further, bond yields surge


By Marley Jay

DOW JONES INDUSTRIALS

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK U.S. stocks


slipped for the third consecutive
day Thursday as media and defense
companies skidded. Bond yields
climbed to their highest levels
since May, which helped banks and
hurt stocks that pay big dividends.
Stocks started the day higher and
were flat at midday, then gradually
slid through the afternoon. Cable
and TV companies and publishers
sank, and industrial companies
like
Raytheon
and
L-3
Communications fell after reporting weak results.
Bond prices fell and yields
climbed. That helped banks, since
theyll earn more from lending as
interest rates rise. It also sent highdividend stocks like utilities and
real estate companies lower as
bonds become more appealing to
investors seeking income.
Scott Kimball, co-portfolio manager of the BMO TCH Core Plus
Bond Fund, said investors believe
that central banks will cut back on
bond buying. In recent days thats
sent prices lower and yields higher.
The largest bond buyers, the
biggest bond managers in the market, have been these central
banks, he said. Kimball added that

growth picks up.
The Dow Jones industrial average
fell 29.65 points, or 0.2 percent, to
18,169.68. The Standard & Poors
500 index sank 6.39 points, or 0.3
percent, to 2,133.04. The Nasdaq
composite lost 34.29 points, or
0.7 percent, to 5,215.97.
Comcast continued to fall as
investors worried about competition it could face from a new online
TV service like AT&Ts DirectTV
Now, which was announced
Tuesday. Comcast lost $1.08, or
1.7 percent, to $61.48 after falling
3 percent Wednesday.

Online privacy may be


boosted by new FCC data rules
NEW YORK New privacy rules may
make it easier to escape at least some online
tracking. The Federal Communications
Commission on Thursday approved rules
that require internet service providers like
Comcast, AT&T and Verizon to ask customers permission to use or share much of
their data.
That could potentially make it harder for
them to build advertising businesses that
could serve as competition to Google and
Facebook. Those digital-ad behemoths are
not covered by the new FCC rules.
Industry groups representing the cable,
phone and advertising industries criticized
the outcome of Thursdays vote. Several
consumer-advocacy groups hailed it, while
saying it should go further.
Under the measure, for example, a broadband provider has to ask a customers permission before it can tell an advertiser
exactly where that customer is by tracking
her phone and what interests she has

raises base fares by $5 each way
DALLAS American and Southwest are
raising fares by $5 each way, the latest
move by airlines to reverse a price slump
that has lasted nearly two years.
American Airlines Group Inc. raised prices
first and Southwest Airlines Co. followed
suit on Thursday, according to J.P. Morgan
Securities and FareCompare. Southwest confirmed the price increase.
Fares have been falling since airlines
began adding flights and seats faster than
the growth in travel demand.
On Wednesday, Southwest Airlines Co.
shares tumbled 8.5 percent after the company gave a weak forecast for a key revenue
figure in the fourth quarter. The forecast suggested that lower fares are likely to last
through year end.

Treasury note jumped to 1.85 percent from 1.79 percent a day earlier,
its highest yield in almost five

Bristol-Myers Squibb broke out
of a slump after it raised its annual
forecasts. The stock has fallen by
about one-third since early August
as investors worried about sales of
its cancer treatment Opdivo. The
stock rose $2.67, or 5.4 percent, to
$51.96. Celgene also raised its
forecasts as sales of its cancer drug
maker Revlimid kept rising. The

More changes await Twitter


users as service tries to grow
By Barbara Ortutay
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK Twitter users are bound to


see changes as the beleaguered service
favored by journalists, celebrities, politicians and cranks tries to broaden its appeal
and attract advertisers.
Thats whether it gets a new owner or not.
On Thursday, Twitter announced one
immediate change: Its shutting down its
once-pioneering video-sharing app Vine,
which has been eclipsed by the likes of
Snapchat and Instagram.
What else might be in the works? For
now, think tons of small tweaks rather than
a 180-degree turn. In a conference call discussing the San Francisco-companys quarterly earnings, an analyst asked CEO Jack
Dorsey if there were any plans for big, revolutionary product changes.
Weve been making hundreds of small
changes as quickly as we can, Dorseys
responded, adding that users are showing
that the changes are working.
For now, its looking like Twitter will
stay an independent company, despite
months of rumors to the contrary. But a

new owner could still swoop in, and


depending on who it is, could clean up
Twitter and curb some of the nastiness
thats become synonymous with it. Or perhaps a new owner would just show more
ads. Or let it languish while it mines the
best of what Twitter now has into its existing products and services.
All of this is speculation, of course, and
there might not even be a new owner.
Twitters stock has plunged after rumored
bidders are, well, rumored to be no longer
interested. On Thursday, the company
announced that it would cut 9 percent of its
workforce globally as its revenue growth
slowed.
While its adjusted earnings beat Wall
Street expectations, it reported a loss of
almost $103 million before one-time
charges and costs are removed.
A new parent whether thats Google
(huh?), Salesforce (who?) or Disney
(hmm...) could inject fresh life into a 10year-old company thats never turned a profit and remains confounding to many people.
Of course, none of these potential suitors
have acknowledged interest in Twitter, let
alone their plans for it.

Apple adds keyboard touch


functions to Mac in refresh
By Brandon Bailey
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CUPERTINO Apple unveiled longawaited updates to its Mac computers


Thursday, aiming to spark consumer interest
in a product line often overshadowed by
newer gadgets like the iPad and iPhone.
The breakout feature is, as widely speculated, a new touch-sensitive panel on the
MacBook Pro, Apples top-of-the-line laptop.
The touch bar will offer functionality
thats familiar to many iPhone users.
It shows word suggestions as you type and
lets you scroll through libraries of emojis.
When watching movies, the touch bar can
offer playback controls. When editing photos, the touch bar changes to offer options

to lighten or rotate. It adapts and offers different controls for whatever app or website
youre using.
The Pro will also come with a fingerprint
sensor, similar to one in the iPhone, to
unlock the device. It can recognize different
users and offer quick switching based on the
fingerprint. The new Macs will also offer a
dedicated key for the Siri voice assistant, a
feature added with the MacOS Sierra update
last month.
In keeping with recent updates to other
Apple products, the company will replace
some computer ports with a new USB-C outlet. Connectors using USB-C technology
can transmit data faster than older USB
jacks. Theyre also smaller and have a uniform shape, which means the USB-C jack
can be inserted with either side facing up.

Dont look now, but there may be a changing of the guard.
Woodside, which finished second in the

faced the third-place Bears in their home
pool in the semifinals of the PAL tournament. And for the third time in four games,
the Wildcats came away with the victory.
Thursday, Woodside rallied from a twogoal, second-half deficit to beat M-A 7-6

Woodside first started to believe in its
abilities last season, when the Wildcats

Central Coast Section Division I tournament. M-A appeared to have righted the ship
with a 5-3 win over the Wildcats at the

While rivalry week is still a week away,


any time Aragon and Burlingame lock up on
the gridiron its going to feel like a rivalry
game.
This year, when the two teams kick off at
Aragon Friday at 3 p.m., the playoff implications are looming large for the host

Dons. Aragon (1-2 PAL Bay, 5-3 overall)


enters play tied with Hillsdale for third
place in the Peninsula Athletic League Bay
Division. With Sacred Heart Prep and Terra
Nova looming a half game back in the
standings, Aragon must run the table
through its final two league games to be
assured of one of the Bay Divisions four
guaranteed playoff berths.
That all starts with the showdown with

second-place Burlingame (3-1, 5-3), a team


riding a two-game win streak and having
won in dramatic fashion last week in a 1710 victory over Terra Nova.
Aragon and Burlingame games are just
great games, Aragon head coach Steve Sell

Woodside volleys to PAL Ocean title

The tradition of the Woodside volleyball


team jumping into the schools swimming
pool at the end of the season started in
2013, the last time the Wildcats won a
league title.
Since then, despite the Wildcats finishing no better than third place over the past
two seasons, the team has still kept with
the tradition by jumping into the pool on
the last day of practice.
This year, however, Woodside got to
enjoy the real deal.

The Wildcats (13-1


PAL Ocean, 23-11 overall) downed San Mateo
22-25, 25-23, 25-22,
25-22 in Thursdays regular-season finale in a

Jesse Crowley tied for first place,
Woodside rode an excellent blocking front led by senior Jesse
Crowley to its first league championship in
three years.
And to celebrate with a steady rain

falling and a mystic steam wafting off the


water into the pool they went.
Every year weve been carrying on that
tradition, Woodside third-year senior
Pascale Tregon said. So, we figured since
we won it, why not tonight?
Prompting chants of MVP! from the
Woodside faithful in attendance, Tregon put
on a show, scoring a match-high 11 kills. It
was the outside hitters lone ace of the
night that set off the celebration though as
she closed the match with a tight top-spin
serve that San Mateo could not handle.

Hertl scores 2 to lead Sharks


By Rick Eymer

Sharks 3, Blue Jackets 1

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN JOSE Tomas Hertl made sure to keep the Sharks on


track, helping San Jose overcome a power outage in the second period and having a goal disallowed early in the third.
Hertl had two goals and Joonas Donskoi also scored to
lead the Sharks to a 3-1 victory over the
Columbus Blue Jackets on Thursday
night.
There were a couple things there out of
our control, but I thought considering
that, we stuck with it and found a way,
Sharks coach Peter DeBoer said. You
coach junior hockey in Canada for 15
years, you see your share of power outTomas Hertl ages.
Martin Jones stopped 24 shots to help
the Sharks improve to 3-0 at home.
Scott Hartnell scored for the Blue Jackets, who lost for
the second straight game. Sergei Bobrovsky finished with
26 saves.
Hartnell spoiled Jones shutout bid with 2:50 remaining
as the puck skipped off Jones skate and onto Hartnells
stick and he put it in to make it 2-1.
I though we played well. We just have not been consistent enough offensively, Blue Jackets coach John
Tortorella said. We dont have enough offensive guys
going right now.

Hertl added an empty net goal in the final second.


Donskoi scored his first goal of the season, on a power
play with 7:01 left in the first period after taking a pass
from David Schlemko and knocking it in off the bottom of
Bobrovskys glove and having it bounce into the net.
My last year in Finland, the ice broke a couple of times,
Donskoi said of the power outage. That was even worse.
There was maybe a 1 1/2, two-hour delay in the game, and
we just kept going after that. I dont think this was too
bad.
After a goal by Brenden Dillon was disallowed due to offsides following a lengthy review early in the third period,
the Sharks scored another power-play goal with Hertl converting on a rebound to make it 2-0.
A lot bad bounces and they just capitalized, Columbus
Josh Anderson said. It was just unfortunate they had one on
the power play too. I thought we came out the way we wanted but we got away from our game a little bit there.
The lights over the ice went out with 2:42 left in the second period, forcing an early intermission. The time was
added to the beginning of the third period, with the teams
switching sides after 2:42.
It was definitely a long game, the Sharks Joel Ward
said. I dont know what time it is right now but with that
and the disallowed goal it felt like a triple overtime type of
game. Havent seen that before, but hopefully since we won
maybe it happens again and we can capitalize.

short week to prepare and mounting injuries. But with three

eligible if it can maintain its strong play in Strawberry

with a fearlessness and fire that the team was missing at the

Tregon hadnt yet arrived at Woodside in
2013. She was a freshman at MenloAtherton that season before transferring as a
sophomore. She endured plenty of growing
pains, especially in 2014 when the Wildcats
went winless through Bay Division play,
prompting a demotion to the Ocean
Division.
After going 9-5 last season in Ocean play,
however, Tregon and five other seniors completed the long road back to put Woodside in
a position to catapult back into the Bay
Division next year.
But boy, did they have to earn it against a
well-rounded San Mateo team.
This is like one of the most amazing feelings Ive ever felt, Tregon said. All day
Ive been nervous and excited so the hype
of winning it, its really awesome.
The Bearcats (12-2, 16-11) came out
strong and took the first set, despite trailing
12-6 early. San Mateo sophomore Emily
Savage tied the match-high with 11 kills and
junior middle blocker Alexa Carreon finished with 10, five of which came in Game 1,
including the final two points of the set to
close it out on a 5-0 Bearcats run.
In Game 2, though, the Woodside block
began to show shades of dominance.
Crowley totaled five match blocks and the
Wildcats scored 11 team blocks throughout.
Crowley, Tregon and 6-1 freshman Sarah
Strus had a block apiece in the set, while junior opposite Jennifer Buja had two.
The dominant defensive front opened the
left side for senior Jordan Crevelt, who
smashed her way to 10 match kills, including six in the pivotal Game 2.
With Woodside trailing late, the 5-9 outside hitter scorched a kill off the right side to
tie 23-23. Then after San Mateo whiffed on a
middle set for an unforced error to force set
point, Crevelt evened the match at a set
apiece with a picturesque pipe shot.
Game 3 was another back-and-forth battle

Crowley came through with a clutch block

It just helps us bring up the excitement
because you know youre shutting them
down, Crowley said. Its one of the most
frustrating things to get blocked. So we
know how important it is.
In the Game 4 finale, San Mateo jumped out
to a 15-11 lead behind the fiery play of senior
setter Jazmine McDonald, who while running
the offense and playing tremendous defense,
added five match kills with an effective dump
shot to counteract the Woodside block.
They have a really good block,
McDonald said. They have really tall girls.
We just have to respect that and move around
them.

she expected a close match after previously
playing the Bearcats twice this season, with
both matches going the distance.
We played against them three times
already so we knew it was going to be a close
match, Gavioli said. And our blocking did
very well.
Before the Wildcats jumped in the swimming pool, they enjoyed a celebratory
photo opportunity with their second-year
coach, who is seven-and-a-half months
pregnant, with every player on the team
stuffing volleyballs in the stomachs of their
uniforms to simulate baby bumps.
Gaviolis baby girl, Giulia Grace, isnt due
for another six weeks, after the close of the
Central Coast Section volleyball playoff cal-

endar. Gavioli said her little future volleyball


player already starts kicking up a storm
every time Gavioli sets foot in the gym.
Every time we step in the gym, she
moves a lot, Gavioli said. I dont know if
its because she likes it or if its because
shes upset. But we will be finding out
soon.
As for the fate of San Mateo, earning an atlarge bid from the Ocean Division is no guarantee. The Bearcats learned this last year,
finishing in second place but not making
the postseason cut. This year, with eight
more playoff spots available due to the
implementation of a CCS Open Division,
there is hope that San Mateo will receive
good news at Saturdays CCS playoff seeding meeting.
Were still going to petition (to get it)
and were still going to practice tomorrow,
McDonald said. That has nothing to do
with what happened today. Were still going

NBA boss Silver


calls Kings new
arena a miracle
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SACRAMENTO Just a few years ago,


NBA Commissioner Adam Silver had a hard
time envisioning seeing this day come.
He stood outside a Sacramentos new stateof-the-art downtown arena and welcomed
Kings fans to the home opener for a franchise
many believed was on its way out of town just
over three years ago.
I think its a borderline miracle from where
we were in 2013 to be here in 2016, a year earlier than they originally
pledged to have an arena
done,
Silver
said
Thursday before the Kings
hosted San Antonio in the
first regular-season game
at the Golden 1 Center. To
be done, to be here on
opening night with the
building completely finAdam Silver ished with strong local
ownership, its everything a league could hope for.
The idea seemed far-fetched back in the
spring of 2013 when the Maloof family was
poised to sell the team to a group of Seattle
investors seeking to move the franchise to
the Pacific Northwest.
But tech mogul Vivek Ranadive stepped up
to buy the team for $534 million and keep it
in Californias capital city with a new arena
that Silver calls the new standard in the NBA.
The 17,500-seat arena is the first professional sports venue powered completely by
solar energy, will save about a million gallons of water a year compared to a typical
venue of its size, was built with recycled material from the mall that stood at the site before

has won five straight. A win would give
the Bearcats an undefeated Lake Division,
but it has already locked up the divisions
lone automatic CCS berth. The Bearcats
have not been to the playoffs since advancing to the 2009 semifinals. The 21
points scored was the second-lowest output
of the season for the Bearcats, while scoring just 17 in a loss to Los Altos in Week 3.
The Bearcats were held under 300 yards
for only the third time this season. Mills
comes into the game with the Lake
Divisions best offense, averaging 32.3
points per game a tenth more than San
Mateo. Mills had 327 yards of offense
last week all on the ground. The Vikings
were 0 for 4 passing. The Vikings are
averaging 318 yards rushing per game.
Mills RB David Tongilava has been toiling

between these two since 2012, a 48-13 Sequoia victory.
Sequoia has lost two straight The 14 points scored last
week was the fewest amount Sequoia has scored in Ocean

35-6 win over Carlmont. Capuchino lowered the boom
on El Camino last season, 42-0. El Camino hasnt
cracked the 20-point barrier since putting up 38 in a seasonopening win over Gunn-Palo Alto. If nothing else, the
Colts have had a decent season defensively, giving up an
average of 24 points per game. Capuchino receiverturned-running back Trey Zahursky rushed for 162 yards and

Carlmont has been decimated by injuries in the backfield,
losing its top two rushers to injury. Matthew Tara did come
in, however, and provide a little bit of spark, leading the
Scots with 46 yards rushing on nine carries. Jefferson
has the second-most prolific offense in the Lake Division at
37 points per game, trailing Capuchinos 43. The

Ex-Penn State assistant gets $7M in defamation case


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BELLEFONTE, Pa. A jury awarded a former Penn State


assistant football coach $7.3 million in damages Thursday,
finding the university defamed him after it became public
that his testimony helped prosecutors charge Jerry
Sandusky with child molestation.
Jurors deliberated for about four hours in Mike McQuearys
defamation and misrepresentation lawsuit.
Judge Thomas Gavin still must decide McQuearys whistleblower claim that he was treated unfairly as the school suspended him from coaching duties, placed him on paid administrative leave, barred him from team facilities and then did
not renew his contract shortly after he testified at
Sanduskys 2012 trial.
McQueary remained stoic as the verdict was read, and he
and his lawyers made no comment as they left the courthouse.
A Penn State spokesman said the university would not
comment on the case and the jurys verdict until a final decision is rendered on all counts.
McQueary had been seeking more than $4 million in lost

Theyre well coached. Youre always going to have to play well
to beat them.
Sell said the playoffs arent quite on the teams radar as of yet.
More important, he said, are the local matchups against
Burlingame and the season-finale rivalry showdown with
Hillsdale.
We dont even really talk about [the playoffs], Sell said.
Weve talked playoffs a little bit. But we just want to play well.
The Dons are going to have to accomplish that against a redhot Burlingame team.
The Panthers have featured a solid three-back system out of the
wing-T this season, with senior Sean Saunders and junior Alec
Meredith shouldering nearly equal time. Saunders has totaled
763 yards on 114 carries this season with Meredith right behind
at 739 yards on 134 carries.
But it was the passing exploits of junior quarterback Carlo
Lopiccolo that propelled the Panthers to victory in the closing
minutes of last weeks thriller against Terra Nova. Tied 10-10,
the Panthers were driving but were full aware theyre been having trouble getting into the end zone all night. Burlingame had
previously gotten into the red zone four times, but had just a
Meredith rushing touchdown and a field goal to show for it.
During a timeout in the red zone with approximately three
minutes remaining in regulation though, Lopiccolo astutely
pointed out Terra Novas cornerbacks had been cheating towards
the middle on a certain wide-out route. And Philipopoulos factored the scouting report into the following play call.
Usually when the kids give me that type of info I go with it
and it worked out, Philipopoulos said. It worked out just the
way he saw it.
Sure enough, Lopiccolo connected on an out-route to the end
zone to put the ball into the hands of senior wide receiver Gray
Goodman. Lopiccolo was 7-of-11 passing for 144 yards on the
night, with Goodman totaling 124 of those yards receiving wise
on four catches, including the epic game-winner.

wages and other damages, saying he was defamed by a statement the school president released the day Sandusky was
charged, retaliated against for helping with the Sandusky
investigation and misled by school administrators.
Jurors awarded him $1.15 million on the defamation claim
and $1.15 million on the misrepresentation allegation that
two administrators lied to him when they said they took his
report of Sandusky seriously and would respond appropriately. They also awarded $5 million in punitive damages.
Sandusky, a former defensive coach at Penn State, was
convicted of sexual abuse of 10 boys and is serving a 30- to
60-year prison sentence. He maintains his innocence.
Strokoff called McQuearys treatment by the university
outrageous.
He should not have been the scapegoat, he said earlier
during closing arguments.
Penn State attorney Nancy Conrad emphasized in her arguments that McQueary had said he was damaged by public criticism that he did not to go to police or child welfare authorities when he saw Sandusky sexually abusing a boy in a team
shower in 2001. Instead he reported it the next day to thenhead coach Joe Paterno.
The win itself was indeed epic as it clinched a Central Coast
Section playoff berth for the Panthers.
Its huge, Philipopoulos said. No. 1, it clinched the playoff berth for us. ... Without that wed be in limbo going into
Aragon and the (rivalry finale against San Mateo) Little Big
Game. And it was just a good performance in all three phases
of the game.
On paper at the start of the season, Aragon figured to be one of
the toughest defensive matchups against Burlingames triplethreat rushing attack because of senior linebacker VA Wilson.
During Week 4 against Jefferson, however, Wilson suffered a
season-ending ACL tear.
We hadnt had that quality of linebacker play in a decade,
Sell said. He was the heart of our defense at inside linebacker.
He got hurt playing offense and that was my mistake. He was so
valuable, but its hard. Hes a good offensive player too.
Obviously hindsight is 20-20.
The Dons have relied on a carousel of inside linebackers since
the injury but have gotten strong play from their secondary.
Senior safety Siua Tongamoa has been the leader of Aragons
defensive perimeter. Two weeks ago in the Dons only league
win thus far, a 46-15 blasting of Terra Nova, Tongamoa produced
an exciting pick-6 with a 55-yard return for the score.
On offense, the Dons have relied on junior quarterback Gabe
Campos to throw more than he was initially slated to at the start
of the year. But the 5-7 helmsman has turned into a dual threat.
Establishing an air attack with senior receiver Anthony
Sandoval, Campos has been steady.
However, turnovers and dropped passes have proved the Dons
Achilles heel.
Case in point, last weeks 48-35 loss to first-place MenloAtherton. M-A jumped out to a 27-7 halftime lead before the
Dons scored 28 second-half points, including 21 in the fourth
quarter, to make it close. But in the first half, Aragon was haunted by two drops on wide open deep routes that should have produced scores.
We should have had 21 points in the first half, Sell said.
Sell said the moral victory was being able to hang with the top
team in the PAL Bay Division though.
We walked off the field knowing if we execute the plays, we
can compete with anybody, Sell said.

side 5 meters, Jolly said. I told them,


Play our game. Youre playing their
game.
The 5-meter line is an important one in
the game of water polo. Inside that line, an
offensive player is not allowed to take a
shot directly off a restart. Outside 5 meters?
Players can wind up and let it fly.
The Bears were living on restarts outside
5 meters, as half of their goals came that
way.
The Wildcats, however, played their game
to a T over the final seven minutes. And in
keeping with Woodsides theme of scoring
unexpected goals which the Wildcats did
twice in the first period it was a longrange goal that seemed to take the wind out
of the Bears sails.
With just over three minutes remaining in
regulation, Anderson fired home a shot from
7 meters away off an assist from Mina
Sealund to tie the game at 6.
Then, with just over a minute to play, the
Wildcats found the game winner. Taking a
pass from Sophia Ashworth, Anderson let
loose a shot from about 4 meters that
deflected off an M-A defender and into the
back of the net.

Woodside set the tone early on as, despite


having a hard time getting any kind of
offensive rhythm going early, a couple of
long-distance shots gave the Wildcats some
momentum. Sealund got the scoring started
for Woodside when, as the shot clock was
winding down, she lofted a shot from about
7 meters out that beat the M-A goaltender to
give the Wildcats a 1-0 lead less than two
minutes into the game.
After M-As Paris tied the score on a 2-on1, off an assist from Ayla Huhn, Sealund
struck again. This time, she was even further away from the cage closer to midpool than scoring range and yet, again,
beat the goaltender with another long, lofted shot.
Its always good to get goals early to get
the jitters out, Jolly said. Those were desperation lobs that, lucky for us, went in.
(Early) goals take the pressure off.
M-A, however, tied the match at 2 going
into the second period, courtesy of a Kyra
Sheeper strike.
A goal from Maddie Maxwell off a restart
gave M-A its first lead of the game, 3-2,
early in the second period, but Woodside
knotted the score on a Sealund goal from the

hole set, off an assist from Anderson. An


Ella Heald tally, off a pass from Nicole
Greenberg, gave the lead back to Woodside,
4-3, but M-A scored the final two goals of
the half, with Sherman twice rippling the
net to put the Bears up 5-4 at halftime.

NFL.
Smith also missed the first nine games of
the 2014 season while serving an NFL suspension for violations of the leagues substance abuse and personal conduct policies.
He missed time during the 2013 season to
undergo treatment at an inpatient facility
following his DUI arrest that September.
Smith also reportedly entered a treatment
center this summer after video linked to his
Periscope account showed possible marijuana use.
Despite his problems, the Raiders signed
Smith to a two-year contract in April. They

have been unable to have direct contact with


him during the suspension but have kept
tabs on him through his agent.

general manager Reggie McKenzie told the

that hes healthy and happy. But I would
hope that we as a league reward a guy with
stipulations who goes through the right
steps and wants to get better and get his life
in order.
Smith had been a key part of Oaklands
defense last season, providing another pass

rushing threat to go along with All Pro


Khalil Mack. Smith had just 3 1/2 sacks in
nine games, but did provide 36 quarterback
pressures, according to Pro Football Focus,
and was stout against the run.

In the second half, the Woodside defense


came to the fore, limiting M-A to just one
goal over the final 14 minutes.
We have a great goalie (in Maya
Srinivasan) and our defense is really good,
Jolly said.
Srinivasan came up with 18 saves.
Now, the Wildcats will face a Castilleja
team that went undefeated in Bay Division
play. The championship match is scheduled
for 3:30 p.m. Saturday at Menlo-Atherton.
The Gators handled the Wildcats rather
easily during the regular season, but Jolly is
hoping Woodside has grown since that
early-season matchup.
Castilleja is the cream of the crop in our
league, Jolly said. I think if we stick to
our game I think we have a chance
against them.

Despite adding free agent Bruce Irvin in


the offseason to fill Smiths role, Oakland
(5-2) is tied for 28th in the league with nine
sacks and is allowing a league-worst 6.7
yards per play.
Smith has been one of the leagues best
pass rushers when available, with 47 1/2

take Amtrak through night

ABOARD THE LAKE SHORE LIMITED


As the Amtrak train slowly chugged through
the Ohio night, past factories along the
Lake Erie shore illuminated by pinkish
lights, Marvin Thomas stretched across a
pair of seats, proudly wrapped in a blue satin
Cubs jacket.
The 51-year-old Chicagoan had made the
trek to Cleveland for the Cubs first World
Series games in 71 years, and now it was
time to go home following Wednesday
nights 5-1 victory over the Indians, which
tied the Series 1-1.
Ernie Banks lived down the street from us
when I was a kid, said Thomas, who paid
$800 a ticket to attend Games 1 and 2. This
is the most unbelievable feeling Ive had
outside my children being born. There was
no way I wasnt going to be here.
Salvador Cardenas, a 28-year-old dentist
from Aurora, Illinois, paid $746 to stand
along a rail in left field during Game 2. He
high-fived other Cubs fans at Cleveland
Lakefront Station before the trip home.
I had to call all my patients off. I said:
Hey, got to do this! I got to go to the World
Series! he exclaimed. Im a die-hard Cub
fan, so I felt like that came first.
European soccer fans jam trains for highprofile matches. England supporters urinated in the aisle en route from Bologna to
Venice after an extra-time win over Belgium
at the 1990 World Cup, and Italian tifosi
chanted until they were hoarse at the

against the United States at the 2006 tournament in Germany.
But only about two dozen Cubs fans
boarded Amtrak trains 49/449 at 3:45 a.m.
Thursday for the 341-mile trip to Chicagos
Union Station, far fewer riding the rails
than during the 2009 Acela Series between

There are other features like the NBAs first 4K ultra

The arena is part of a $1 billion development project
that includes 1.5 million square feet of mixed-use property that will have a hotel, restaurants, retail shops,
offices and condos. About $500 million in outside
investment is also expected in the area.
These are true modern day town halls, Silver said.
You can see from the smiles on the fans faces as they

Among the most unique features are the airplane
hangar doors that can be opened to turn the venue into an
indoor-outdoor arena. The team tested it out for parts of
three preseason games and saw no measurable differences in temperature, humidity or wind on the court and
would like to be able to open the doors during games
eventually.

Pumpkin spice topping a dollop of delicious


By Melissa dArabian
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

I remember the first time my daughter tried lasagna. She


loved pasta, yet it took some serious trust me coaxing.
Today, Im going to ask you to have the same faith when I
share an amazing little recipe for a lower calorie whipped
cream, whose main ingredient is garbanzo bean juice.
Still with me? Awesome.
The liquid leftover from the slow cooking of beans and
legumes is called aquafaba (bean water in Latin), and its
a scientific miracle if you ask me because it whips up into a
pillowy fluff in minutes. You probably have some sitting
on your pantry shelf this very minute, and youve probably
been throwing it away all these years. No longer.
Whipped aquafaba has gazillion uses, particularly in the
vegan world, where its used as an egg substitute in baked
goods and meringues. In fact, if you are vegan, you probably consider this to be old news. My personal favorite way
to use aquafaba is as a low-cal whipped topping, which can
dress up a dessert, or serve as a base for a fluffy mousse
(think pumpkin mousse for the holidays).
Dollop todays recipe, a pumpkin pie spice version, onto
a latte, or onto apple or pumpkin pie. A half cup of aquafaba has approximately 50 calories, and it whips up into
about 8 cups of topping. Yes, you will want to add some
sugar in there so you dont top your holiday pies with beanwhip, but still, you come out way ahead over whipped
creams calorie count.
If you are like me, you already have grabbed a can of
beans from your pantry to strain and try this out. Here are a
few tips from the trenches. Light-colored beans work better
than dark beans (like black beans). White beans such cannellini or great northern beans have a milder, less tangy
taste than garbanzo beans. But garbanzo beans usually have
more liquid in the can, which means one can will feed a
crowd.
Aquafaba whipped topping will not be as stable as
whipped cream, so add a stabilizer, such as powdered sugar
or cream of tartar, and serve it within 30-60 minutes of
whipping. Youll need to whip for a full 10 minutes so a
stand mixer is really the way to go. (If the cream does break,
however, you can whip it right up again no problem.)
Finally, to address your main concern: you will want to
cover the slight bean taste. A mixture of almond and vanilla extracts along with some maple syrup works well, even
in small quantities. I think this might become one of your
favorite holiday swaps.

PUMPKIN SPICE LO-CAL WHIPPED TOPPING


Start to finish: 10 minutes
Amount: About 8 cups whipped topping
1 can garbanzo or white beans
1/4 cup powdered sugar
2 tablespoons maple syrup
1/4 teaspoon almond extract
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Strain the can of beans, reserving all the canned liquid
(called aquafaba, or bean water) and placing in a stand

HANKS
Continued from page 18
Inferno sets Hanks polymathic professor Robert Langdon on the trail of a deadly
plague concocted by billionaire scientist
Bertrand Zobrist (Ben Foster) out of a sort
of warped humanitarianism: He plans to end
war, poverty and famine by wiping out half
the worlds population.
Hanks says the belief that theres a onestep answer to all problems is alarmingly
relevant.
Down through history theres been an
awful lot of people who say: Heres what the
problem is, heres what it was caused by,
and all you have to do is my suggestion,
theres an easy way in order to make it go
away, Hanks said.
Its very simplistic, its very reactionary. Its almost like a fundamental
embracing of a brand of ignorance, he
added. But I think its part of the political
discourse.
Hanks clearly has the contest between
Trump and Clinton in mind.
America, he says, needs vision and lead-

ership and scope, as opposed to one-stop


shopping fixes all.
Im not a political activist, nor am I a
political animal, but I will say: Look, Im
going to vote for her, because I think this is
a marathon in order to solve not just the
most obvious problems, but the ones that
are coming down the pipe.
Political discussion over, Hanks happily
reverts to talking about Dan Browns megasuccessful mix of medieval conspiracies and
modern-day skullduggery.
In his third screen outing as Langdon,
Hanks is sent on a high-stakes treasure hunt
centered around the life and works of Dante
Alighieri, whose Divine Comedy created
a teeming vision of hell that has influenced
artists and writers for 700 years.
Hes joined by Felicity Jones brainy
medic Dr. Sienna Brooks as ally and intellectual sparring partner.
Hanks, who played Langdon in The Da
Vinci Code and Angels & Demons
both directed by Ron Howard, as is
Inferno says he still finds pleasure in
making the border-hopping thrillers.
Inferno scurries from Florence to Venice
to Istanbul, wreaking havoc in some of the
worlds most beautiful historic buildings.

Making movies is by and large a pretty


fun enterprise, except when you have to be
cold or up late or wear a fake beard or something, said Hanks, after more than three
decades in the business still the most affable of Hollywood stars.
But these are rather special. The team has
been together since the first one. We get to
go to amazing places: London, Paris,
Rome, Venice. Which is a lot better than,
say, going to Sony Studios in Culver City,
California.
For the viewer, the movie offers the pleasures of a good old-fashioned caper Hanks
likens it to a scavenger hunt in which the
characters must decipher a string of clues in
a race against time.
Time and distance are actually characters
in all of these films, Hanks said over the
phone from a rainy Florence, Italy, where
the movie had its world premiere.
We only have so much time and how do
you get from Florence to Venice? Turns out
the fastest way is the train, so we jump on a
train and we actually shoot some of the
movie while were going from here to
there, he said. Ends up being one of the

For the actor, theres also the pleasure of
absorbing large quantities of information
so his character can dispense gobbets of
exposition and expertise about everything
from Dantes death mask to the nine circles
of hell.
It makes you a really great dinner companion, Hanks said.

boss,
Frances
Omar
Sy
(The
Intouchables) as one of her agents,
Romanias Ana Ularu as a mysterious assassin and Indian star Irfan Khan as an amoral

Hanks said the diverse cast comes from

perfect and organic for our story, he said.

Rising star: YouTube playing key role in Googles success


By Michael Liedtke
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO YouTube has emerged


as a break-out star in Googles cast of services as the online video site upstages cable television for a younger generation of viewers
looking for amusement, news and music on
their smartphones.
The trend is contributing to an advertising
shift away from traditional network television programming to the more eclectic and
diversified mix of clips ranging from cute cat
videos to sobering shots of street violence
found on YouTube.
As more advertising dollars flow to
YouTube, its making the already hugely profitable Google even more prosperous. In a
third-quarter report released Thursday,
Googles corporate parent, Alphabet Inc.,
said it earned $5.1 billion, or $7.25 per
share, a 27 percent increase from the same
time last year. After subtracting advertising
commissions, revenue climbed 21 percent to
$18.3 billion. Both figures topped analyst
projections.

All that money is providing Google with


more financial firepower to buy the rights to
stream cable networks shows on YouTube,
too, something likely to reel in even more
viewers. It also is helping to finance
Alphabets investments in far-flung projects
ranging from self-driving cars to internetbeaming balloons. That segment, known as
Other Bets, lost $865 million during the
July-September period, narrowing from a
$980 million setback last year as Alphabet
imposed more expense controls.
Yo u Tu b e
already has
proven to be
one of the
best
bets
that Google
has
ever
made since it
bought the
video site for
$1.76 billion a decade
ago. At that
j un c t ur e ,

YouTube consisted mostly of crudely made


videos shot by amateurs and clips pirated
from movie and TV studios that were threatening to sue the site into oblivion. It had
built a worldwide audience of about 72 million viewers when Google took control in
November 2006.
Since then, YouTube has evolved into a far
more polished channel that has spawned
unlikely stars such as PewDiePie (Swedish
comedian Felix Arvid Ulf Kjellberg) while
largely making peace with studios by creat-

ing an automated screening system that


detects pirated content. YouTube says it has
paid more than $2 billion to studios that have
chosen to leave their material on the site and
share in the ad revenue generated by their
clips.
Meanwhile, YouTubes audience has surpassed 1 billion, with 80 percent of the viewers outside the U.S. YouTube also boasts that
its site reaches more people between the ages
of 18 and 34 years old the millennial
generation than any cable network.

If theres a Splash
remake, Tom Hanks wants in on it
LOS ANGELES Tom Hanks wants in on
Channing Tatums gender-swapped remake of
his 1984 mermaid romantic comedy
Splash. Ron Howard and Brian Grazer are
developing a new take on the film with Tatum
starring as a mer-man in the part originated
by Daryl Hannah.
No one asked me. I am all in favor of it,
said Hanks, who played Allen Bauer in the
original film. Why not? Thats fine. Look, I
think if they were really going to be bold, I
would come back as Allen Bauer, and I would

WEEKEND JOURNAL
People in the news
go off with Channing Tatum. That would be a
bold movie. And I am suggesting it right
now.
Howard directed the original based off
Grazers idea and said he laughed when pitched
the remake idea by Tatum and Jillian Bell,
who would play the role originated by Hanks.
I mean look, its a bit of an experiment. So
we are just going to have to see how the
screenplay comes together, Howard said at
the Inferno premiere in Los Angeles on
Tuesday. Well see. But it will be a lot of fun
even as were just working on it.

INFERNO
Continued from page 18
Hanks reprising the role of the Harvard
symbology professor whose parlor trick
is solving elaborate criminal plots by deciphering great works of art. If his exploits
are to continue (and there is good reason to
fear they might), I hope hell eventually be
confronted with a puzzle that brings him
face to face with a Rothko, leaving him
utterly bereft of clues.
The first two Langdon movies (also directed by Howard) were cold, soggy soups of
conspiracy that served up a very poor mans
Indiana Jones, minus the fun but plus a dubious haircut. The filmmakers have skipped
one book in the series, perhaps wisely since
Browns The Lost Symbol enlists
Freemasons as its conspiracy-du-jour, following escapades with the Catholic church
and self-flagellating albino monks in The
Da Vinci Code and the Illuminati in
Angels & Demons.
Inferno, a better, more simplified
thriller than those films, trades less on the
ancient mysteries of a shadowy organization than the familiar arch villainy of a
megalomaniac and a good one, at that.
The reliably intense Ben Foster plays
Bertrand Zobrist, a billionaire who, fearful
that overpopulation will destroy humanity,
wants to trim the herd by half with a virus
that will unleash a modern-day plague.
Langdons role in the scheme isnt clear.
The film begins with him waking up in a
Florence hospital, his recent memory wiped
clean by a head wound and his mind haunted
by apocalyptic visions. Its that classic

THE DAILY JOURNAL


hangover with little to jog the noggin other
than a mysterious bio-tube from the night
before.
When a pursuer turns up and starts shooting, Langdon and the doctor on hand,
Sienna Brooks (Felicity Jones), flee and
begin piecing together Zobrists plot, one
concocted with heavy shades of Dante and
Botticellis Map of Hell painting. They
chase the virus while trailed by the World
Health Organization (Sidse Babett Knudsen,
Omar Sy) and a clandestine security firm
(Irrfan Khan exquisitely plays its gentlemanly leader). Langdon and Brooks dash
through the Palazzo Vecchio, the Boboli
Gardens and other starred attractions in
Browns Florence guide book.
The opportunity to see Hanks traversing
European capitals has been enough to make
the Langdon films blockbusters. Along the
way, Langdon a bit of a drip has not
given Hanks much to work with. But slavishness to Browns text has finally given
way in David Koepps script to an apparent
understanding that the books dont deserve
such regard, or at least that few care anymore.
The benefit is that Inferno isnt a burning heap of hogwash, like The Da Vinci
Code was. Its a lot more like a tweed-jacket version of Bond or Bourne or most any
other thriller out there. But if Langdon is
distinguished from the other globe-trotting
saviors by his PhD, why arent his movies
smarter?
Inferno, a Columbia Pictures release, is
rated PG-13 by the Motion Picture
Association of America for sequences of
action and violence, disturbing images,
some language, thematic elements and brief
sensuality. Running time: 121 minutes.
Two stars out of four.

BEER
Continued from page 1
Back home, hes now as eager as ever
to expand. Nestled near Pillar Point
Harbor in a turquoise Victorian-style
building, the small brewery and tasting
room is run by the 36-year-old El
Granada resident and a few of his buddies.
As weve evolved, Ive learned a
lot, Littlefield said. Im very proud of
the progression that Ive made and that
my employees and brewers have made. I
think were making much better beer
than when we first opened and thats
just because were passionate about it
and excited to just keep learning.
As with many initial attempts, his
Rock-Biter brew required some experimenting over the years before he landed
on the award-winning recipe.
Its a funny beer, because its not
always the most visually appealing
beer. Its really cloudy, Littlefield said,
adding he often has to convince people
to give it a taste. I seriously defended
that beer to my friends, because its a
style Im really proud of. I felt very vindicated and happy when we ended up
winning such a prestigious award for
it.
Held in Denver, Colorado, the Great
American Beer Festival is one of the
largest competitions in the world. This
years judges considered a record-setting 7,227 entries submitted from

ZONING
Continued from page 1
or larger homes on larger lots.
Some of the regulations in our zoning made it difficult for [property owners to expand]. I think likewise, people
with larger flat lots in Belmont,
although not a lot of them, also fall into
that category of people that maybe
havent gotten a fair shake out of this
ordinance. I think thats the main thing
here, to try to correct for larger lots than
can carry larger homes, Simpson said,
according to a video of the meeting.
And to try to do that in a way that doesnt sell the farm and ruin life as we know
it. And I think that can be done.
Although most of the seven commissioners had varying views at the start
including one who thought the city
would be better served essentially keeping the rules about maximum home size
as is they eventually arrived at a
unanimous recommendation after several hours of deliberations.
Currently, the maximum home size
is 3, 500 square feet for most lots,
and 4, 500 square feet for certain
areas of the city that typically boast

Friday Oct. 28, 2016

1,752 breweries, according to competition officials.


The silver medal in the rye beer category served as an affirmation to
Littlefield that its time to expand.
Although finding another locale has
been challenging, theyve already
moved beyond their current three-barrel
brewing system at the El Granada
locale, and frequently contract brew at
other venues, Littlefield said.
Brewing three or five days a week,
this last year they concocted 300 barrels out of El Granada and another 500
barrels at other locations where they
rent space, he said.
The demand for our small batch stuff
is pretty intense right now. As soon as
a tank is empty were literally filling it
again that day, Littlefield said. We
think the futures bright for the company and worth all this hard work right
now. And were passionate, so it doesnt always feel like work.
In some ways, Littlefield has his wife
to thank for the hobby turned budding
business. About seven years ago, she
gave him a small home brew kit and,
before he knew it, the Sonoma County
native left his job as a special education
teacher and began brewing full time.
While the historic style rye beer
turned into more than a pet project, its
just one of many styles with which Hop
Dogma is wetting peoples whistles.
Were doing just about everything
these days. Were best known for our
hoppy beers, pale ales, IPAs; that is
whats most popular almost any day of
the week. But we really love brewing

lagers, stouts, imperial stouts and


sours. We like to keep it pretty diverse
and experiment, he said. Its still all
about having fun. We love brewing so
we want to have fun brewing and a lot of
that is changing and keeping it different.
Those looking for a taste can find
Hop Dogma beers commonly on tap at
Ale Arsenal in San Carlos, Taplands in
Santa Clara, the Ocean Ale House in San
Francisco and on the coast at
Camerons Pub as well as the Old
Princeton Landing. Several nearby
Whole Foods and New Leaf markets
also sell their product, he said.
Littlefield is proud of his employees
and partners, noting their business success is thanks to their die-hard dedication and love of beer.
I just really think you need to constantly be in the mind-set that you can
do better, you can learn more. Just having that open-minded attitude really has
allowed me to be able to reinvent
myself as a brewer many times. ... The
moment you get kind of complacent
and satisfied with what youre doing, I
think you lose a little bit of your edge.
So I think thats the biggest lesson,
Littlefield said, adding Hop Dogma
stands out because I think we have a
kind of unwavering commitment to
improving, always be improving and
always be releasing something exciting.

larger properties.
Instead, planners suggest a sliding
scale where owners with properties
10,000 square feet or under would continue to be allowed an up to 3,500square-foot home. However, as lot size
increases, so does the allowable home
size. To have a 5,000 square foot home,
a property must be at least 20,000
square feet.
Homes in two residential zones
that collectively make up about 120
properties with average lot sizes of
nearly 36,700 square feet and 20,700
square feet are recommended to have
their automatic maximums increased
from the current 4,500 square feet to
5,000 square feet.
However, other factors will ultimately
restrict how large of a home can be built
on a particular lot, including the slope
of the property and new suggested
design guidelines. Larger homes would
have to meet certain criteria, such as
greater setbacks from their property
lines, as well as consider whether neighbors views and privacy would be
obstructed.
I do happen to think theres some
place for the property owners to have
rights to build things that are larger,
said Commissioner Kerry MacDonald.
Insofar it doesnt pass a point that

adversely impacts their neighbors.


Members of the public didnt comment on Mondays meeting as theyd
been given the opportunity to share
their opinions a week earlier when the
commission first began considering the
changes.
The commission and staff also proposed refining some of the language
regarding the exemption process and
design criteria for larger homes.
The issue of updating the citys home
remodel rules heightened in controversy
last year when the council approved
multiple changes to its Zoning and Tree
ordinances. A group of concerned residents gathered enough signatures for a
referendum, which led city officials to
overturn the changes. The city then conducted more community outreach and
began considering alternate, albeit
somewhat similar, amendments.
In total, the changes cover design
guidelines, parking requirements, secondary units, maximum home size and
next up will be rules regulating trees on
residential properties.
The City Council is expected to
review the maximum home size regulations as early as November.

NOTICE OF PETITION TO
ADMINISTER ESTATE OF
Michael Raymond Ruhland
Case Number: 16PRO00448
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or estate, or both, of Michael Raymond Ruhland. A Petition for Probate has been
filed by Sharon M. Ruhland in the Superior Court of California, County of San
Mateo. The Petition for Probate requests
that Sharon M. Ruhland be appointed as
personal representative to administer the
estate of the decedent. The petition requests authority to administer the estate
under the Independent Administration of
Estates Act. (This authority will allow the
personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval.
Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have
waived notice or consented to the proposed action.) The independent administration authority will be granted unless an
interested person files an objection to the
petition and shows good cause why the
court should not grant the authority.
A hearing on the petition will be held in
this court as follows: NOV 15, 2016 at
9:00 a.m., Department 28, Superior
Court of California, County of San Mateo,
400 County Center, Redwood City, CA
94063.
If you object to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing
and state your objections or file written
objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person
or by your attorney.
If you are a creditor or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your
claim with the court and mail a copy to
the personal representative appointed by
the court within the later of either (1) four
months from the date of first issuance of
letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the
Calilfornia Probate Code, or (2) 60 days
from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under sectioin
9052 of the Callifornia Probate
Code.Other California statutes and legal
authority may affect your rights as a
creditor. You may want to consult with an
attorney knowledgable in California law.

You may examine the file kept by the


court. If you are a person interested in
the estate, you may file with the court a
Request for Special Notice (form DE154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any petition
or account as provided in Probate Code
section 1250. A Request for Special Notice form is available from the court clerk.

PROP. 57

PRIVACY
Continued from page 1
considered as private, like names and
addresses, theres a more lenient approach.
Customers should assume that broadband
providers can use that information, but they
can opt out of letting them do so.
There will not be much visible difference
in the online experience for most consumers. There will be more notices from
your home internet or wireless carrier saying what type of information they collect
and that theyd like to use and share it.
I think the new FCC rules are a step in the
right direction, said Mark Bartholomew, a
law professor at the University of Buffalo
who studies advertises law and privacy. But
ultimately I think people will go ahead and
let themselves be tracked. ...We routinely
click and agree to get what we want online
without thinking too much about being
tracked.
The
Federal
Communications
Commissions measure was scaled back
from an earlier proposal, but was still criticized by the advertising, telecommunications and cable industries.

ment officials, coming after a jump in
crime last year and major policy shifts in
the last five years that have put California
on the national forefront of reducing mass
incarceration.
The state shifted responsibility for many
felons from state prisons to county jails in
2011 to reduce prison overcrowding.
Voters have supported reducing criminal
penalties twice since then, revising
Californias career criminal three strikes
law in 2012 and lowering penalties for certain drug and property crimes in 2014.
The Democratic governor argues his initiative is needed to keep the inmate population below the cap set by federal judges.
He also wants to fix what he sees as a festering problem as he enters the final two
years of his record tenure.
One of the beauties of being in government over a 42-year period: You get to
make mistakes that you then get to correct, Brown told the California Chamber
of Commerce in May.
Brown signed the states current sentencing law in 1977, letting judges instead of
parole boards determine when most convicts should be released.
I thought things were too uncertain and
we need clear, certain punishment, he
said.
But he argues lawmakers have since overreacted by passing too many criminal laws
along with 400 sentencing enhancements
for things like using a gun or being
involved in a gang while committing the
underlying crime.
Proposition 57 would restore some of
that earlier flexibility by allowing nonviolent inmates to seek parole hearings.
Under California law, however, that would
exclude only those convicted of fewer than
two dozen crimes like murder and kidnapping.
It would also allow parole consideration
after inmates complete the prison term for
their primary offense, but before they serve
any additional sentence connected to other
crimes or enhancements. Many inmates
have longer sentences for the enhancements, including life prison terms, than for
the underlying crime.
It also would give the Department of
Corrections and Rehabilitation broad
authority to give earlier release credits to
inmates, including those convicted of violent crimes, who complete classes or treatment, if the corrections secretary certifies
that they protect and enhance public safety.

Friday Oct. 28, 2016

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

It would substitute state officials opinions for judges more informed and timely
consideration of how long criminals
should spend behind bars, said Ventura
County District Attorney Greg Totten,
speaking on behalf of the California
District Attorneys Association that opposes the initiative.
That judges decision could be completely ignored by a state bureaucrat and
they could mete out any sentence they want
to, Totten said.
The initiative would give inmates incentives to behave and better themselves in
prison in hopes of earning an earlier
parole, said Amador County Chief
Probation Officer Mark Bonini, president
of Chief Probation Officers of California
that supports the measure.
Ultimately maybe weve built a better
person and weve given them some skills
that they can put to advantage on the outside and maybe engage in a positive way,
Bonini said.
The nonpartisan Legislative Analysts
Office projects about a quarter of
Californias nearly 130, 000 prison
inmates could seek parole if it passes.
Its a truncated version of the usual parole
process: A state employee does an administrative review to determine if the inmates
release would pose an unreasonable risk to
public safety. Inmates, prosecutors and
victims may send written comments. But
there are no hours-long hearings to weigh
testimony from inmates, their attorneys,
victims and prosecutors, and the governor
has no role in allowing or blocking the
inmates release.
The initiative would also reverse voters
decision in 2000 to make California one of
15 states that lets prosecutors decide if
juveniles as young as 14 should be tried in
adult court, instead requiring judges consent before any youth could be tried in adult
court.
of its goals with its $85.4 billion purchase
of HBO, CNN and TBS owner Time Warner.
Verizon has bought AOL and agreed to buy
Yahoo in order to build up a digital-ad business.
But the new rules could make doing that
more difficult. Companies and industry
groups say its confusing and unfair that the
regulations are stricter than the Federal
Trade Commission standards that Google
and Facebook operate under.
FCC officials approved the rules on a 3-2
vote Thursday, its latest contentious measure to pass on party lines.
It is the consumers information. How it
is to be used should be the consumers
choice, not the choice of some corporate
algorithm, said Tom Wheeler, the
Democratic chairman of the FCC who has
pushed for the privacy measure and other
efforts that have angered phone and cable
companies. AT&T and other players have
fought the net neutrality rules, which
went into effect last year, that say ISPs cant
favor their some internet traffic. Another
measure that could make the cable-box market more competitive is still waiting for an
FCC vote.
One of the Republican commissioners
who voted against the privacy rules,
Michael ORielly, said that they were senseless because broadband providers could still
buy the information they would have collected, and that the prices consumers ultimately pay could rise.

KHAZER, Iraq Iraqi forces explored a


network of tunnels and uncovered a bombmaking facility on Thursday in a village
near Mosul that was recently retaken from
the Islamic State group, offering a glimpse
of the challenge they will face as they move
closer to the city.
Ten days into the offensive, the special
forces are still at least 4 miles (6 kilometers) east of the city and have faced stiff
resistance, with IS firing mortars and
machine guns, and sending armored suicide
truck bombs trundling across the arid
plains.
Once inside the small, sparsely populated
villages that ring Mosul, Iraqi forces must
contend with explosive booby-traps and
hidden snipers. The fortifications are
expected to grow even more lethally daunting once they enter Iraqs second-largest
city.

The extremists captured Mosul in a matter


of days in 2014, and have had more than two
years to build up its defenses and brutally
root out any internal opposition. The operation to retake the northern city is expected
to take weeks, if not months.
Iraqi forces approaching Mosul from the
south, meanwhile, are still 20 miles (35
kilometers) from the city, and the special
forces to the east said they will not push
ahead until the other forces are able to tighten the noose.
Iraqi army Maj. Gen. Najim al-Jabori said
forces south of Mosul retook the town of
Staff al-Tut in the Tigris River valley on
Wednesday, and said local tribal and militia
forces have been deployed to protect the
gains while his troops regroup for their next
advance.
Special forces Brig. Gen. Haider Fadhil
nevertheless insisted things were on track.
The operation has not been stopped and is
proceeding as planned, he said.

U.N.: School attack in Syria


may be potential war crime
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BEIRUT U.N. Secretary-General Ban


Ki-moon called on Thursday for an immediate investigation of an attack on a school
in Syrias Idlib province that the U.N.s
childrens agency is calling one of the deadliest of its kind in the countrys six-year
war.
UNICEF raised its toll for Wednesdays
attack to 28 dead, among them 22 children
and six teachers.
Ban said in a statement that the attack,

carried out against rebel-held territory, may


amount to a war crime if found to be deliberate.
If such horrific acts persist despite global outrage, it is largely because their
authors, whether in corridors of power or in
insurgent redoubts, do not fear justice. They
must be proved wrong, he said.
Witnesses said overhead jets targeted the
school in the town of Hass as many as 10
times,
around
midday
Wednesday.
Opposition activists blamed the strikes on
Russian and government planes.
