Burlingame alters election calendar

Council will seek five-year terms to align with effort to boost voter turnout
By Austin Walsh
Comment on
or share this story at
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Burlingame council candidates will seek

five-year terms this fall under an effort to
meet a mandated shift to align the citys calendar with the states election cycle.
Councilmembers voted unanimously during a meeting Tuesday, Jan. 17, to host regularly scheduled elections later this year and
2019, but candidates will seek an extra year
than normal terms, according to video of the
meeting.
The shift follows the passage of Senate
Bill 415 which requires cities seeing voter
turnout levels in odd years significantly
lower than general elections to mirror the
state cycle on even years.
Councilmembers agreed allowing their
existing terms to expire before seeking an
extended term in the following election
would be the most responsible fashion of
meeting the requirements of the bill
approved by voters in 2015.
I think this is the simplest solution, said
Vice Mayor Michael Brownrigg.
Officials had weighed a variety of alternative options to get onto an even-year election calendar, including extending or trimming terms by one year or seeking three-year
terms in the following elections.
Many councilmembers expressed a discomfort with altering their existing terms
though.
I was elected for a four-year term, and Id
like to serve it, said Councilwoman Donna
Colson.
Ultimately, the savings tied to hosting

fewer elections offered through the five-year
term option was more appealing to councilmembers than calling an election in 2017,
2019 and again in 2020.
We are being fiscally prudent because we
are minimizing the number of elections we
have to hold, said Colson.
Under the decision, Mayor Ricardo Ortiz,
Councilwoman Ann Keighran and Brownrigg
could seek five-year terms this fall, while
Councilwomen Emily Beach and Colson may
pursue similar terms in 2019.
The cost of hosting an election is split
between the amount of cities and school districts in the county participating. As more
local elected bodies move away from oddyear elections, the expense to the few still on
that schedule stands to increase.
City Clerk Meaghan Hassel-Shearer said
she is uncertain how much the city may face
paying to host upcoming elections, but
noted there are a few school districts and
cities still expected to be participating this
year and in 2019.
Under the councils decision, the first
even-year election is slated to be held in
2022 and then again in 2024. The new law
requires cities and school districts facing a
shift to adopt a plan by 2020.
Many local elected boards have approved

simply extending existing terms by one year

to align with the state election calendar.
Burlingame officials though postponed such
a decision last month, due to discomfort with
altering existing terms.
The San Mateo Union High School District
Board of Trustees and South San Francisco
City Council are among local elected boards
which have recently approved extending
existing terms. The Redwood City Council
and Sequoia Union High School District
pushed off decisions in favor of collecting
more community input. In San Mateo, the
plan is to have the seats up for election in
2017 be four-year terms with an additional
charter amendment to be voted on to extend
those terms for one year to five years.
Steadfastly opposed to extending terms,
Beach said she favored seeking three-year
seats in following elections, but ultimately
her position was in the minority among
councilmembers.
I dont like it, but I can live with it,
Beach said, before voting in favor of the
five-year term proposal.
Ortiz also said he believed a three-year term
was too short.
Burlingame resident Kristen Parks said she
supported the councils decision to not simply extend their existing terms.
I think if you think your work is important and meaningful for democracy, which I
believe and I think you believe, err on the
side of democracy and not on the side of
things that happen in dictatorships and
authoritarian regimes across the world, she
said.

Planning Commission puts Merry Moppet one step closer to improvements

A proposed expansion of the Merry

Planning Commission Tuesday.
The commission voted 6-0 to

schools Carlmont Drive campus just
off Ralston Avenue so the school can
increase enrollment and hire additional staff.
The proposed changes would result
in an increase in the floor area for the
project site of just over 7,400 square
feet after the demolition of existing
wooden buildings and construction of
a new classroom with over 12,000
square feet. The project also includes
plans to renovate and replace existing play areas and structures, according to a staff report.

school students as well as before- and

is looking to increase its maximum
enrollment to 425 from its current
enrollment of 360 to 375.
Administrators hope the additional
space will allow them to increase the
teaching staff by 20 for a total of 67
teachers and administrators, and, in
doing so, improve the studentteacher ratio.
The plan is also designed to update
facilities to align with modern
instructional practices, according to
the report.
The expected increase in enrollment and staff and proposed changes
to the sites design fueled a traffic
impact study, which found the project
would have significant and unavoidable impacts at six intersections,
warranting the installation of traffic
signals or other improvements. The
school has a history of making onsite or nearby improvements benefiting the surrounding area, such as
resurfacing an adjacent road and paying for new storm drains. In addition
to offering to contribute to future

improvements as they are related to
the project, the school offered to pay
$62,046 toward a traffic mitigation
fund, according to the report.
An additional drop-off and pick-up
point on Merry Moppet Lane would
allow student access to the new classroom. Administrators plan to staff car
attendants at the new drop-off point
to assist students from cars to their
classrooms on the campus.
The plan also details the removal of
24 trees to make room for construction with a full replacement of 24
trees after the project is complete.
Community Development Director
Carlos de Melo said the Planning
Commission studied the schools
plans very carefully.
Its a really well-conceived project
architecturally, he said. Its excellent in terms of trying to maximize
its placement as well as open up some
parts of the campus for play areas.
De Melo is hoping the project goes
to the City Council for review in
February.
Series of storms to lash Bay Area

By Kiley Russell
BAY CITY NEWS SERVICE
A series of storms will be moving

through the Bay Area over the next
several days, brining heavy winds and
more rain to an already saturated
region, according to the National
Weather Service.
Running through Monday, with periods of respite, three weather systems
will dump from between 1 inch and 3
inches of rain throughout the Bay

Area, with the heaviest downpours
expected in the North Bay, according
to forecaster Steve Anderson.
Winds from 40 mph to 50 mph
arrived Wednesday, prompting a high
wind advisory and raising the specter
of more toppled trees and downed
power lines.
The first round of rain rolled through
Wednesday, and will pick up again on
Friday and will have to a short break
on Saturday, Anderson said.

On Sunday, another round of wet
weather is expected to arrive and will
taper off Monday afternoon, leading to
mostly clear weather into the rest of
next week.
The dark and stormy weather has led
to the closure of Muir Woods National
Monument in Marin County and the
continued closure of Lake Del Valle
Regional Park in southeast Alameda
County.

Alanis Morissette manager
admits to $4.8M theft from singer
LOS ANGELES The former business manager for Alanis
Morissette admitted embezzling more than $7 million from
the singer and other celebrities and agreed to plead guilty to
federal charges, prosecutors said Wednesday.
Jonathan Todd Schwartz, 48, of Los Angeles, was charged
with wire fraud and filing a false tax return for failing to
report the embezzled funds, prosecutors said.
Schwartz admitted stealing nearly $5 million from
Morissette between May 2010 and January 2014. He used
the money personally and falsely listed the cash withdrawals as sundry/personal expenses to cover up the
crime. When confronted about the theft, Schwartz lied and
said he invested the money in an illegal marijuana growing
business, prosecutors said.

Gov. Jerry Browns administration discovered accounting mistakes that will affect the states Medi-Cal program.
$1.9 billion error adds to

state deficit projection
By Jonathan J. Cooper
SACRAMENTO Gov. Jerry

Browns administration miscalculated
costs for the state Medi-Cal program
by $1.9 billion last year, an oversight
that contributed to Browns projection
of a deficit in the upcoming budget,
officials acknowledged this week.
The administration discovered
accounting mistakes last fall, but it did
not notify lawmakers until the administration included adjustments to make
up for the errors in Browns budget
proposal last week. The Democratic
governor called for more than $3 billion in cuts because of a projected
deficit he pegged at $1.6 billion.
Theres no other way to describe
this other than a straight up error in

accounting, which we deeply regret,
said H.D. Palmer, a spokesman for the
Department of Finance.
The agency followed its normal
practice by waiting to report the errors
in the governors next budget, he said.
Browns deficit projection was driven by more than just the accounting
error, Palmer said, noting that
California tax collections came in
below expectations for most of the
first half of the fiscal year.
The massive hole in the Medi-Cal
budget surprised state lawmakers.
It makes you wonder what else is
not right. ... When something like
this happens, the trust factor gets
eroded, and you lose confidence in
whats being provided to you, said
Sen. John Moorlach, a Republican

from Costa Mesa who serves on the
Senate budget committee.
Making up for the Medi-Cal shortfall will mean the state cant spend
money on other priorities, such as college scholarships or paying down
long-term
pension
liabilities,
Moorlach said.
The Medi-Cal program, Californias
version of Medicaid, is jointly funded
by the state and federal governments
to provide health coverage for people
with low incomes.
It covers one in three Californians,
at a total cost of more than $100 billion annually. About a sixth of the
money comes from the state general
fund and most of the rest from the federal government.

OAKLAND Authorities say two musicians with the

band Tower of Power remain hospitalized after being hit last
week by an Amtrak train in Oakland.
Drummer Dave Garibaldi is in fair condition but will
remain hospitalized for the next few days, according to a
statement from the band. Garibaldi suffered head and facial
injuries. Bassist Marc Van Wageningen remained in critical
condition, but has been responsive. Van Wageningen suffered broken ribs, a concussion, and internal injuries. He
underwent surgery after the incident.
The musicians with the funk/R&B band were heading to a
performance at an Oakland nightclub when they were hit by
the train near Jack London Square last Thursday night.

Coroner identifies man
killed in hit-and-run on 101
A man killed in an apparent hit-and-run on Highway 101
in San Carlos Friday evening has been identified by the San
Mateo County coroners office as 45-year-old John
Hannon.
Hannon, of East Palo Alto, was walking near the southbound lanes close to Brittan Avenue at about 6:35 p.m.
when he stumbled into the road and was struck by a white
Toyota being driven by 36-year-old Sharon Oo, according
to the California Highway Patrol.
Oo, a Union City resident, allegedly fled the scene but
was arrested about an hour later in Redwood City, according
to the CHP.
Investigators said it doesnt appear as if she had alcohol
in her system, but that Hannon might have been drinking
an alcoholic beverage prior to the collision, according to
the CHP.

Anxious EU leaders seek an

early audience with Trump
WASHINGTON European leaders, anxious over Donald

Trumps unpredictability and kind words for the Kremlin, are
scrambling to get face time with the new American president
before he can meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin,
whose provocations have set the continent on edge.
One leader has raised with Trump the prospect of a U.S.European Union summit early this year, and the head of NATO
the powerful military alliance Trump has deemed obsolete is angling for an in-person meeting ahead of Putin as
well. British Prime Minister Theresa May is working to
arrange a meeting in Washington soon after Fridays inauguration.
For European leaders, a meeting with a new American president is always a sought-after and usually easy-to-obtain
invitation. But Trump has repeatedly defied precedent,
making them deeply uncertain about their standing once he
takes office. Throughout his campaign and in recent interviews, Trump has challenged the viability of the EU and
NATO, while praising Putin and staking out positions more
in line with Moscow than Brussels.
There are efforts on the side of the Europeans to arrange a
meeting with Trump as quickly as possible, Norbert
Roettgen, the head of the German Parliaments foreign committee and a member of Chancellor Angela Merkels party,
told the Associated Press.
In fact, eager to stage an early show of Trans-Atlantic solidarity, Donald Tusk the former Polish prime minister who
heads the EUs Council of member state governments
invited Trump to meet with the EU early in his administration, according to a European Union official.
Commerce pick say NAFTA will

be early target for team Trump
WASHINGTON Breaking with Republican orthodoxy,

a new Trump administration will work quickly to re-do the
North American Free Trade Agreement, a
massive trade pact with Canada and
Mexico that has boosted trade but still
stings laid off workers across the
Midwest, President-elect Donald Trumps
pick for commerce secretary told
Congress on Wednesday.
At his confirmation hearing, billionaire investor Wilbur Ross said all free
Wilbur Ross trade agreements should be systematically re-opened every few years to make
sure they are working in the best interests of the U.S.
Ross said he is pro-free trade, but noted his close relationship with the United Steelworkers union as proof that
he will fight to protect American jobs. The union has
endorsed him.
NAFTA is logically the first thing for us to deal with,
Ross said. We must solidify relationships in the best way
we can in our own territory before we go off to other jurisdictions.

Barack Obama waves as he departs the briefing room at the conclusion of his final press conference at the White House.
So long from White House: Obama

aims his final messages at Trump
By Julie Pace
WASHINGTON Barack Obama

stepped behind the White House
lectern for the last time Wednesday,
fielding questions from the crush of
journalists crammed in for the occasion and offering assurances to
Americans watching on TV.
But at times, his answers seemed
aimed at an audience of one: the man
who will replace him at noon Friday.
Obama gently chided Donald
Trumps suggestion that the U. S.
might end its sanctions on Russia over
Ukraine in exchange for nuclear stockpile reductions, saying it was in
Americas interest to make sure we
dont confuse why these sanctions
have been imposed with a whole set of
other issues.
And, with Trump vowing to move
the U. S. Embassy in Israel to
Jerusalem, a move that could further
inflame tensions in the Middle East,

Obama warned that when sudden unilateral moves are made in the region,
the results can be explosive.
Obama also defended his decision to
cut nearly three decades off convicted
leaker Chelsea Mannings prison
term, a move Trumps team has strongly criticized. Obama said the former
Army intelligence analyst had served a
tough prison sentence already.
With no elections left to win or legislative battles to fight, Obama used
his parting words to deliver one set of
messages to his successor, a man who
is his opposite both temperamentally
and politically. Obama said he expected a new president, particularly one
from the opposing party, to test old
assumptions, but he also suggested it
would be important for the next administration to understand that there are
going to be consequences, and actions
typically create reactions.
The very fact that Obama was hold-
ing the afternoon news conference in

the White House briefing room served
as a symbolic counter to Trump. The
president-elects aides have raised the
prospect of moving daily news briefings out of their traditional West Wing
home, sparking fears of attempts to
eventually push reporters out of the
White House altogether.
Obama specifically addressed that
worry: Having you in this building
has made this place work better, he
declared.
Youre not supposed to be sycophants, youre supposed to be skeptics, Obama said to the reporters he
has often criticized for hyping scandals and hopscotching from story to
story too quickly.
Youre not supposed to be complimentary, but youre supposed to cast a
critical eye on folks who hold enormous power and make sure that we are
accountable to the people who sent us
here.

In break with Trump, EPA pick

says climate change isnt hoax
By Michael Biesecker and Matthew Daly
WASHINGTON Donald Trumps choice

to head the Environmental Protection
Agency said Wednesday that climate change
is real, breaking with both the presidentelect and his own past statements.
In response to questions from Democrats
during his Senate confirmation hearing,
Oklahoma Attorney General Scott Pruitt said
he disagreed with Trumps earlier claims that
global warming is a hoax created by the
Chinese to harm the economic competitiveness of the United States.
I do not believe climate change is a
hoax, Pruitt said.
The 48-year-old Republican has previously cast doubt on the extensive body of scientific evidence showing that the planet is
warming and man-made carbon emissions
are to blame. In a 2016 opinion article,
Pruitt suggested that the debate over global
warming is far from settled and he claimed
that scientists continue to disagree about
the degree and extent of global warming and
its connection to the actions of mankind.
At the hearing before the Senate Energy
and Public Works Committee, Pruitt conceded that human activity contributes in some
manner to climate change. He continued,
however, to question
whether the burning of
fossil fuels is the primary
reason, and refused to say
whether sea levels are rising.
Pruitts
testimony
came shortly after NASA
and the National Oceanic
and
Atmospheric
Scott Pruitt
Administration issued a
joint statement affirming that 2016 was
officially the hottest year in recorded history. Studies show the Greenland and Antarctic
ice sheets have decreased in mass, while the
worlds oceans have risen on average nearly
7 inches in the last century.
Pressed by Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., to
answer in detail about his beliefs about climate change, Pruitt responded that his personal opinion was immaterial to how he
would enforce environmental laws.
In his current post, Pruitt joined a multistate lawsuit opposing the Obama administrations plan to limit planet-warming carbon emissions from coal-fired power
plants. Pruitt also sued over the EPAs recent
expansion of water bodies regulated under
the Clean Water Act. It has been opposed by
industries that would be forced to clean up
polluted wastewater.
Price tries to reassure on health

care; Democrats not buying it
WASHINGTON Offering reassurances,

President-elect Donald Trumps pick for
health secretary said Wednesday the new
administration wont pull the rug out from
those covered by Obamacare. Democrats
were unimpressed, noting a lack of
specifics.
Rep. Tom Price, R-Ga., also told the
Senate Health, Education, Labor and
Pensions Committee that Trump is
absolutely not planning to launch an
overhaul of Medicare as he tries to revamp
coverage under President Barack Obamas
signature health care law. He acknowledged
that high prescription drug costs are a problem, but did not endorse the idea of govern-
ment directly negotiating prices.

Throughout the nearly
four-hour
hearing,
Democrats
peppered
Price with questions
about his stock trades.
The sometimes confusing exchanges involved
different transactions
Tom Price
under distinct circumstances. Price, who has signed a government ethics agreement to sell his stock, was
clearly annoyed by the suggestion that he
profited from his official position. Im

General Motors CEO Mary Barra talks at the Filmore Theater in Detroit, Mich. GM announced
Tuesday that it was creating or keeping 7,000 jobs.
With job announcements, firms

appear to seek Trump approval
By Josh Boak
WASHINGTON From Wal-Mart to

General Motors to Amazon, a growing number of the worlds largest companies appear to
be trying to get in step with President-elect
Donald Trumps demand that employers hire
and keep jobs at home.
Trump, in response, has taken to Twitter to
signal his approval.
Thank you to General Motors and Walmart
for starting the big jobs push back into the
U.S.! he tweeted Tuesday afternoon.
Yet its unclear just how many jobs are actually being saved or created as a result of
Trumps push or whether his administration
will hold companies accountable for their
pledges. In a solid job market with just 4.7
percent unemployment, hundreds of thousands of U.S. jobs are added all the time for a
broad range of reasons.
Trump has boasted that he deserves the credit based on what chief executives have told
him, despite evidence to the contrary provided by those same companies.
Ask top CEOs of those companies for real
facts. Came back because of me! the president-elect declared on Twitter on Wednesday.
GM announced Tuesday that it was creating
or keeping 7,000 jobs, while Wal-Mart said it
planned to hire 10,000 and support an addi-
tional 24,000 construction jobs with store openings and expansions.

Those announcements
followed Amazons commitment to add 100,000
workers through mid-2018
and a bold claim by the
Chinese online retailer
Donald Trump Alibaba that it would create 1 million U.S. jobs
over the next five years. That extravagant
pledge would make Alibaba alone responsible
for over 10 percent of all jobs added each year
an unheard-of feat in the modern economy.
Many economists say the hiring being celebrated by Trump reflects, more than anything, the health of the $18.7 trillion economy he is inheriting.
Between the election and today, unless you
work on Capitol Hill in D.C., nothing fundamental has changed in the U.S. labor market,
said Andrew Chamberlain, chief economist at
the jobs site Glassdoor.
To these economists, the latest high-profile hiring announcements suggest that companies are capitalizing on the politically
charged climate. Trump has berated companies such as Nabisco for shuttering domestic
plants in order to open factories in Mexico,
while celebrating companies that publicly
commit to hiring in the United States.

Flabby heart keeps pumping

Its a dramatically different approach than
todays therapies and, if it eventually is
proven in people, it might offer a new alternative to heart transplants or maybe even
aid in recovery.
You can customize the function of the
assist device to meet the individual needs of
that heart, said Dr. Frank Pigula, a cardiac
surgeon who, while at Boston Childrens,
took the idea to Harvard colleagues developing soft robotics.
More than 5 million Americans, and 41
million people worldwide, suffer heart failure, a number growing as the population
ages.
WASHINGTON Earth sizzled to a thirdstraight record hot year in 2016, government scientists said Wednesday. They mostly blame man-made global warming with
help from a natural El Nino, which has since
disappeared.
Measuring global temperatures in slightly different ways, NASA and the National
Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
announced that last year passed 2015 as the
hottest year on record.
NOAA calculated that the average 2016
global temperature was 58. 69 degrees
(14.84 degrees Celsius) beating the previous year by 0.07 degrees (0.04 Celsius).
NASAs figures, which include more of the
Arctic, are higher at 0.22 degrees (0.12
Celsius) warmer than 2015. The Arctic was
enormously warm, like totally off the
charts compared to everything else, said
Gavin Schmidt, director of NASAs Goddard
Institute of Space Studies in New York,
where the space agency monitors global
temperatures.
Records go back to 1880. This is the fifth

time in a dozen years that the globe has set
a new annual heat record. Records have been
set in 2016, 2015, 2014, 2010 and 2005.
The World Meteorological Organization
and other international weather monitoring
groups agreed that 2016 was a record, with
the international weather agency chief
Petteri Taalas saying temperatures only
tell part of the story of extreme warming.
This is clearly a record, NASAs
Schmidt said in an interview. We are now
no longer only looking at something that
only scientists can see, but is apparent to
people in our daily lives.
Schmidt said his calculations show most
of the record heat was from heat-trapping
gases from the burning of oil, coal and gas.
Only about 12 percent was due to El Nino,
which is a periodic warming of parts of the
Pacific that change weather globally, he
said.
Of course this is climate change, its
overwhelmingly climate change, said
Corinne Le Quere, director of Englands

Research, who wasnt part of the NOAA or

Nigerias President Muhammadu Buhari and Liberias President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf meet with Gambias President Yahya
Jammeh in Banjul, Gambia.
No word from Jammeh as

deadline arrives in Gambia
By Babacar Dione
and Krista Larson
DAKAR, Senegal After more than

two decades in power, Gambian
President Yahya Jammeh faced the
prospect of a military intervention by
regional forces, as the man who once
pledged to rule the West African nation
for a billion years clung to power.
After a midnight deadline set by the
West African regional bloc to step
down, there was no word from Jammeh.
But Mauritanias leader appeared to be
making a last-ditch diplomatic effort,
meeting with Jammeh and then flying
to Senegal to meet with its leader and
Gambia President-elect Adama Barrow.
Earlier, a military commander with
the regional bloc known as ECOWAS
announced that troops were positioning along Gambias borders with
Senegal.
The mandate of the president is finished at midnight, declared Seydou
Maiga Moro, speaking on Senegalese
radio station RFM. All the troops are
already in place, he added, saying they

were merely waiting to see whether
Jammeh would give in to international
pressure to cede power to Barrow.
As midnight approached, Jammeh
met with Mauritanian President
Mohamed Ould Abdel Aziz on the crisis.
The Mauritanian leader left Gambia
shortly before midnight, telling
Gambia state television that I am now
less pessimistic (Jammeh) will work on
a peaceful solution that is in the best
interest for everyone. He then went to
the meeting at the Dakar airport in
Senegal, state television there reported.
Thousands of Gambians have fled the
country, including some former cabinet
ministers who resigned in recent days.
Hundreds of foreign tourists evacuated
on special charter flights, though some
continued to relax poolside despite the
political turmoil. Gambia is a popular
beach destination in winter, especially
for tourists from Britain, the former
colonial power.
The downtown area of the Gambian
capital, Banjul, was empty late
Wednesday, with all shops closed. But

there was no visible military presence
apart from a checkpoint at the entrance
to the city.
Tiny Gambia is surrounded by
Senegal and the Atlantic Ocean. Late
Wednesday,
witnesses
reported
Senegalese soldiers deploying in the
Senegalese Kaolack region, north of
Gambia, and in the southern Senegalese
region of Casamance.
In another sign of the international
pressure, Nigeria confirmed a warship
was heading toward Gambia for training, and RFM radio reported that
Nigerian military equipment had begun
arriving in Dakar. Ghana also has
pledged to contribute militarily.
The regional bloc was seeking the
U.N. Security Councils endorsement of
its all necessary measures to remove
Jammeh. There is a sense that the
whole situation rests in the hands of
one person, and its up to that person,
the outgoing president of the Gambia,
to draw the right conclusions, said
Swedens U.N. Ambassador Olof
Skoog, the current council president.
SEOUL, South Korea A Seoul court denied a request to

arrest Samsung Electronics Vice Chairman Lee Jae-yong, a
setback to prosecutors investigating an
influence-peddling scandal that toppled
South Koreas president.
The Seoul Central District Court said
Thursday that a judge concluded that
there was not enough justification to
detain the 48-year-old Samsung heir at
this stage.
The announcement, made around 5
a.m. local time, allows Lee to return
Lee Jae-yong home after a long night. He had been
waiting for the courts decision at a detention center south
of Seoul for more than 12 hours after a court hearing the
previous day.
Samsung said the merits of this case can now be determined without the need for detention.
It is not uncommon in South Korea to issue an arrest
warrant past midnight for important cases that have many
contentious issues, said Shin Jae-hwan, a spokesman for
the Seoul court. The long deliberation reflects that the
judge must have been agonizing over the decision, he
added.
At least 46 severely injured

people remain at Nigeria bombing scene
LAGOS, Nigeria At least 46 severely injured people
remain in a refugee camp that Nigerias military says it
mistakenly bombed, the International Committee for the
Red Cross said Wednesday, raising the possibility that the
death toll could significantly rise.
The U.N. refugee chief called the killings truly catastrophic.
The Red Cross statement called for an urgent evacuation,
saying that patients are attended to in an open-air space
in a precarious environment in a remote community still
threatened by Boko Haram extremists.
More than 100 refugees and aid workers were killed in
Tuesdays bombing in the northeast camp near the border
with Cameroon, a government official has told the
Associated Press. The Red Cross statement said an estimated 70 people were killed, plus at least six aid volunteers, and said it was shocked by the civilian deaths.
Russia, Turkey to conduct

joint airstrikes on IS in northern Syria
MOSCOW The Russian military says it has teamed up
with Turkey to conduct joint airstrikes against an Islamic
State groups stronghold in northern Syria.
Lt. Gen. Sergei Rudskoi of the militarys General Staff
said nine Russian warplanes and eight Turkish jets have
taken part in the strikes on the outskirts of al-Bab in the
province of Aleppo.
Rudskois statement on Wednesday was the first
acknowledgement of the Russian strikes in support of the
Turkish offensive on al-Bab.
It highlighted an increasingly close alliance between
Russia and Turkey, which last month jointly brokered a
Syria truce and are working to prepare Syrian talks in
Kazakhstan next week.

BEIJING China is preparing to retaliate
if U.S. President-elect Donald Trump raises
duties on Chinese goods and already has
toughened its stance, an American business
group said Wednesday.
Trump, who is due to be inaugurated Friday,
threatened during his campaign to raise
import duties on Chinese goods to 45 percent. American companies are frustrated by
Chinese market barriers and want
Washington to take a tougher stance toward
Beijing but worry reckless action might trigger retaliation.
Already, China has ordered unusually high

agricultural chemical.
China has indeed threatened to and is
preparing to take steps in retaliation if such
actions take place, said Lester Ross, a board

Commerce, at a news conference.

The biggest loss in the S&P 500
came from specialty biopharmaceutical company Mallinckrodt,
which fell $2.89, or 5.8 percent,

to $46.53 after it agreed to pay
$100 million to end a government
investigation. Antitrust regulators and five states said Questcor,
a company Mallinckrodt bought

rights to a drug that would have
competed with its Acthar gel. The
agencies said that deal gave
Questcor a monopoly. Questcor

Expectations of higher inflation,
along with faster economic
growth, have driven the trend.
Yellen: Expect Fed to gradually

hike rates over next three years
By Martin Crutsinger
WASHINGTON Federal Reserve Chair

Janet Yellen says she expects the Fed to
raise its benchmark interest rate several
times a year through 2019, as it moves closer toward to its economic goals of maximum
employment and stable inflation.
But in a speech in San Francisco
Wednesday, she said she cant say when the
next interest rate will occur or how high rates
will rise. She says that will depend on how the
economy performs in the coming months.
She says Fed officials, who boosted rates
for a second time last month, expect to
raise rates a few times a year until they
have pushed the Feds benchmark rate close
to 3 percent by the end of 2019. The rate
now stands in a range of 0.5 percent to 0.75
percent.
The 3 percent level for the Feds target for
the federal funds rate, the interest that
banks charge each other, is the point that
the Fed currently believes is the so-called
neutral rate the level where the Feds
interest rate policies are not spurring
growth or holding it back.
Right now our foot is still pressing on the
gas pedal, though, as I noted, we have eased
back a bit, Yellen said.

Our foot remains on the
pedal in part because we
want to make sure the
economic
expansion
remains strong enough
to withstand an expected
shock, given that we
dont have much room to
cut interest rates.
Janet Yellen
Currently, Yellen said
inflation is still running
below the Feds 2 percent objective, by its
preferred measure of prices, and that some
measures show that even though unemployment is below 5 percent, there could still be
room to make further progress on jobs.
For instance, wage growth has only
recently begun to pick up and remains fairly
low, Yellen said.
She said as the economy gets closer to the
Feds goals on employment and inflation, it
will make sense to gradually reduce the
level of support the Fed is providing by
raising interest rates.
Waiting too long to begin moving
toward the neutral rate could risk a nasty surprise down the road either too much inflation, financial instability, or both, Yellen
said in her speech to the Commonwealth
Club of San Francisco.
Netflixs shrinking DVD-by-mail

service faces uncertain future
By Michael Liedtke
SAN FRANCISCO Originally cast in a

starring role, Netflixs original DVD-bymail service has been reduced to a bit player
one that may eventually get killed off as
the company focuses on its booming video
streaming service.
Netflixs fourth-quarter earnings report
released Wednesday provided the latest
glimpse at the DVD services descent into
oblivion as the streaming service hogs the
spotlight.
The DVD service shed 159,000 subscribers during the final three months of last
year to end December with 4.1 million customers. Thats an 11-year low for a format
that gave Netflix its initial shot at stardom,
allowing it out-innovate and outmaneuver
Blockbuster Video, then the king of homevideo rentals.
Now, though, the DVD service operates

mostly as an afterthought that caters to a
shrinking audience of die-hards who prefer
to watch movies and TV shows on discs
instead of streaming or downloading them
onto a mobile gadget.
Meanwhile, Netflixs streaming service
has been reshaping the world of entertainment, attracting converts to the convenience of streaming video at any time on any
device with a high-speed internet connection.
The streaming service now boasts nearly
94 million subscribers in 190 countries,
after adding another 1.9 million in the U.S.
and 5.1 million in its overseas markets during the final three months of last year. RBC
Capital Markets analyst Mark Mahaney predicts Netflix will have 160 million streaming subscribers by 2020. The company is
coming off its biggest quarter of customer
growth yet.

The scuttlebutt around Peninsula Athletic

League basketball circles was that the
Westmoor boys basketball team was poised
to knock off three-time defending PAL
North Division champs Half Moon Bay.
After a dominating run with strong teams,
the Cougars appear merely mortal this season and many believed the time was now for
someone to knock off the kings.
I hear the chatter, said Half Moon Bay
coach Rich Forslund.
Westmoor got its chance when they traveled to the coast to face the Cougars
Wednesday evening. While Half Moon Bay
may eventually take a full step back,
Wednesday was not the time. The Cougars
played one of their best games of the season
as they took an eight-point lead at halftime
and then pulled away in the second half for a
65-50 victory.
Were both 3-0 (coming into
Wednesday). [This game was] a gauge of
who is where, said Westmoor coach Herb
Yaptinchay. We needed to play our A
game. We played a B-minus, C-plus
game.
Half Moon Bay (4-0 PAL North, 9-6 overall) did exactly what it needed to do to beat
Westmoor (4-1, 11-5): control the pace,
limit second-chance points and limit Rams
forward Sean Orr.
The Cougars did each of those to perfection. The first two are complementary to
control the pace, you have to limit teams to
one-and-done offensive possessions. Half
Moon Bay did just that by dominated the
boards, outrebounding Westmoor 36-8.
They basically just collapse a lot of guys
to the middle, Yaptinchay said of the
Cougars. We need to rebound.
Half Moon Bay center Ethan Menzies
scored only two points, but pulled down a
game-high nine rebounds. Danny Mack,
who got a rare start because of a disciplinary
issue, finished seven rebounds to go along
with nine points.
Westmoors Orr, on the other hand, had
seven of his teams eight boards.

Following the
Golden State
Warriors annihilation of the Cleveland
Cavaliers Monday,
there has been a
debate over what is
and is not a rivalry.
One definition is
two teams or in
this case, schools
that meet repeatedly
over the course of
years and decades, as is the case for most
PAL schools. Others will say there needs
to be a back and forth, winning and losing, between these teams to be considered rivals. Yet look at the PAL football
rivalries there hasnt been a lot of
ebbs and flows for those games. In many
instances, one team dominates the other.
Does that blunt rivalry talk? To me, no,
because the names and faces of the players may change every year, but the traditions live on for the next generation of
students and players.
One of the biggest rivalries is the one
between Burlingame and San Mateo, one
that has been going on for more than 80
years. The Little Big Game in football
is one of the highlights of the season for
the communities, despite the Panthers
having dominated that series, losing
once over the last 17 years.
That, however, constitutes a losing
streak when compared to the Burlingame-

Hall calls for Bagwell, Raines and Pudge

By Ronald Blum
NEW YORK Jeff Bagwell, Tim Raines

and Ivan Rodriguez were elected to baseballs Hall of Fame on Wednesday, earning
the honor as Trevor Hoffman and Vladimir
Guerrero fell just short.
Steroids-tainted stars Barry Bonds and
Roger Clemens were passed over for the
fifth straight year by the Baseball Writers
Association of America. But they received a
majority of votes for the first time and could
be in position to gain election in coming
years.
Bagwell , on the ballot for the seventh
time after falling 15 votes short last year,
received 381 of 442 votes for 86.2 percent.
Players needed 75 percent, which came to
332 votes this year.
Anxiety was very, very high, Bagwell
said. I wrote it on a ball tonight. It was
kind of cool.
In his 10th and final year of eligibility,
Raines was on 380 ballots (86 percent).
Rodriguez received 336 votes (76 percent)
to join Johnny Bench in 1989 as the only
catchers elected on the first ballot.
Hoffman was five votes shy and Guerrero
15 short.
Edgar Martinez was next at 58.6 percent,
followed by Clemens at 54. 1 percent,
Bonds at 53.8 percent, Mike Mussina at
51.8 percent, Curt Schilling at 45 percent,
Lee Smith at 34. 2 percent and Manny
Ramirez at 23.8 percent.
Players will be inducted July 30 during
ceremonies at Cooperstown along with former Commissioner Bud Selig and retired
Kansas City and Atlanta executive John
Schuerholz, both elected

last month by a veterans
committee.
Bagwell was a fourtime All-Star who spent
his entire career with
Houston, finishing with
a .297 batting average,
401 homers and 1,401
Jeff Bagwell RBIs.
Raines, fifth in career
stolen bases, was a
seven-time All-Star and
the 1986 NL batting
champion. He spent 13
of 23 big league seasons
with
the
Montreal
Expos, who left Canada
to
become
the
Washington Nationals
for the 2005 season, and
Tim Raines
joins Andre Dawson and
Gary Carter as the only
players to enter the Hall
representing the Expos.
Raines hit .294 with a
. 385 on-base percentage, playing during a
time
when
Rickey
Henderson
was
the
sports dominant speedster.
Ivan Rodriguez
Rodriguez, a 14-time
All-Star who hit . 296
with 311 homers and 1,332 RBIs, was never
disciplined for PEDs but former Texas teammate Jose Canseco alleged in a 2005 book
that he injected the catcher with steroids.
Asked whether he was on the list of players
who allegedly tested positive for steroids
during baseballs 2003 survey, Rodriguez
said in 2009: Only God knows.

Bonds, a seven-time MVP who holds the
season and career home run records, received
36.2 percent in his initial appearance, in
2013, and jumped from 44.3 percent last
year. Clemens, a seven-time Cy Young
Award winner, rose from 45.2 percent last
year.
Bonds was indicted on charges he lied to a
grand jury in 2003 when he denied using
PEDs, but a jury failed to reach a verdict on
three counts he made false statements and
convicted him on one obstruction of justice
count, finding he gave an evasive answer.
The conviction was overturned appeal in
2015.
Clemens was acquitted on one count of
obstruction of Congress, three counts of
making false statements to Congress and
two counts of perjury, all stemming from
his denials of drug use.
A 12-time All-Star on the ballot for the
first time, Ramirez was twice suspended for
violating baseballs drug agreement. He
helped the Boston Red Sox win World Series
titles in 2004 and 07, the first for the franchise since 1918, and hit .312 with 555
home runs and 1,831 RBIs in 19 big league
seasons.
Several notable players will join them in
the competition for votes in upcoming
years: Chipper Jones and Jim Thome in
2018, Mariano Rivera and Roy Halladay in
2019, and Derek Jeter in 2020.
Lee Smith, who had 478 saves, got 34
percent in his final time on the ballot. Jorge
Posada, Tim Wakefield and Magglio
Ordonez were among the players who got
under 5 percent and fell off future ballots.

Trevor Plouffe finalizes
$5.25M, one-year deal with As
OAKLAND Infielder Trevor Plouffe has
finalized a $5.25 million, one-year contract
with the Oakland Athletics and is expected
to be the primary third baseman if he can
stay healthy.
Plouffe can earn an additional $750,000
in performance bonuses based on plate
appearances as part of the agreement
announced Wednesday: $150,000 for 350,
and $300,000 each for 450 and 525.
He spent three stints on the disabled list
last season, when he began as Minnesotas
starting third baseman and hit a career-best
.260 with 12 home runs and 47 RBIs in 84
games. He was batting .302 with two home
runs and six RBIs over 12 games before his
first time on the DL on April 19 with a
strain in the right ribcage area. He was sidelined again from July 2 to Aug. 7 because of
a broken left rib, then didnt play again
after Sept. 6 because of a strained left hamstring.
The 30-year-old provides versatility as he
can also play first, making 13 starts there

Soccer great van Basten suggests changes

By Rob Harris
Restricting players to 60 games a year.

Replacing penalty shootouts with eightsecond run-ups. Introducing orange cards to
send players off for 10 minutes. Scrapping
offside.
Former AC Milan and Netherlands forward
Marco van Basten is using his role as technical director at FIFA to propose a series of
changes to soccer to stir a debate.
Rather than using his job to meddle, Van
Basten highlights the need to preserve soccer as the worlds most popular sport.
I have spoken to a lot of coaches and
players, Van Basten said in an interview
with the Associated Press. We have to promote quality instead of quantity. We are
playing too much football now. We have to
defend players because they have to play so
much and are not fresh or fit anymore.
Thats bad for the quality of the game.
Even in June when the big tournaments are
played players cannot perform to their maximum because now if players are really successful they can play up to 75 official games
in the year. I think thats a bit too much and
maybe they should stop at 55 or 60.
Although FIFA will expand the World Cup
from 32 to 48 teams from 2026, that wont
burden players with any additional games.
Instead, clubs sides would have to explore
reducing the number of fixtures, potentially
by reducing the number of lucrative friendly
games played on tours.
Thats all for money but we have to think
about football and not money, said Van
Basten, who was hired by FIFA in
September. For a lot of clubs thats not

easy. But there is enough money in football.

(Cristiano) Ronaldo and (Lionel) Messi
are earning so much money. If they are earning a little bit less but performing better
thats good for football.
Asked about countries like England or
France no longer playing two cup competitions alongside their league fixtures, Van
Basten said: In my opinion that should be
an interesting discussion.
Van Basten knows some of radical
changes he proposed to the AP could make
traditionalists uneasy. But the 1992 FIFA
world player of the year wants to ensure the
global game has a say on its future.
We should not just let the game be organized by those with the money, he said from
FIFA HQ in Zurich. The big clubs like Paris
Saint-Germain, Manchester City and Real
Madrid who have everything.
In football you need opponents, competition because if you are alone with two or
three clubs controlling everything you
dont have any competition.
Maybe the player should start 25 meters

from goal and then you can dribble the goalkeeper or shoot early, he said. But you
have to make a goal within eight seconds.
Its more skill and less luck. Its maybe a bit
more spectacular. Its more football but its
still nervous for the player.
No offside
Scrapping the offside rule could make soccer more visually appealing, Van Basten
advises.
I think it can be very interesting watching a game without offside, he said.
Football now is already looking a lot like
handball with nine or ten defenders in front
of the goal. Its difficult for the opposition
to score a goal as its very difficult to create
something in the small pieces of space they
give you.
So if you play without offside you get
more possibilities to score a goal.
Four quarters
Soccer is increasingly intense and gruel-
Now there is no middle ground between

players being shown a yellow card and
receiving a red card and then being removed
for the rest of the game.
Maybe an orange card could be shown
that sees a player go out of the game for 10
minutes for incidents that are not heavy
enough for a red card, Van Basten said.
Such an instance could be when a player
commits repeat fouls that didnt warrant yellow cards or obstruct opponents. Five misdemeanors could earn a player a place in a
sin bin for 10 minutes, Van Basten said.
Next steps
Any changes to the laws of the game cannot be forced through by Van Basten, however close he is to FIFA President Gianni
Infantino. He said he wants to listen to the
views of world before any proposals are
taken to the games law-making body, The
International Football Association Board.
FIFA controls half of the eight votes on
IFAB, with the other four retained by the
British associations.
Egypt puts soccer star Aboutrika on no-fly, terror list

CAIRO Egyptian authorities have placed

one of the countrys all-time greatest soccer
players on a terror watch and no-fly list, over
accusations he helped finance the Muslim
Brotherhood, now banned as a terrorist organization, judicial officials said Wednesday.
Court officials said Wednesday that
Mohamed Aboutrika, of Cairos Al-Ahly club
and the national team, was added last Thursday
to a terrorism list that includes former president Mohamed Morsi as well as the
Brotherhoods spiritual guide, Mohammed
Badie and other leaders from the group.
The Cairo Criminal Court ruling by judge
Khalil Abdul Aziz included a travel ban and
asset freeze for three years,

although the decision
could be appealed within
60 days, they said, speaking on condition of
anonymity as they werent
authorized
to

Aboutrika already had

Mohamed
based on suspicions of
Aboutrika
financing
the
Brotherhood which emerged as the countrys dominant political force after Egypts
2011 Arab Spring uprising but was later
purged when the army overthrew Morsi.
Aboutrika openly sympathized with the

Brotherhood, and publicly endorsed Morsi in
his successful presidential run in 2012, the
pinnacle of a string of Brotherhood electoral
victories following the overthrow of longtime autocrat Hosni Mubarak.
He won an unprecedented fourth African
Footballer of the Year award after helping AlAhly to a record-extending eighth African
Champions League title before retiring in late
2013.
He has denied ever funding the Islamists,
who have been the main target of a fierce government crackdown on dissent led by
President Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi, Morsis
defense minister who led the armys move
against him. Hundreds have been killed by

security forces and tens of thousands jailed,
many under draconian anti-protest laws or new
laws that broadly define terrorism.
Earlier in the day, the government
announced another step in that crackdown,
saying they had arrested nine alleged
Brotherhood leaders for planning to disrupt
order and security on the upcoming Jan. 25
anniversary of the 2011 uprising.
The Interior Ministry said the men had
scheduled meetings a day earlier in Cairo and
had plans aimed at provoking public opinion
by exploiting the economic situation the
country is going through and coordinating
with extremist entities.

Packers WR Nelson working

way back from broken ribs
GREEN BAY, Wis. Jordy

Nelson is slowly making his way
back from broken ribs, though the
Green Bay Packers top receiver is
far from sure about his chances of
playing in the NFC championship
game in Atlanta.
Nelson returned to practice on a
limited basis on Wednesday after
missing
last
weeks
win
against Dallas.
Coach
Mike
McCarthy said
earlier in the
day that Nelson
would focus on
rehab work.
I
dont
Jordy Nelson know. Its obviously a long
ways away, Nelson said when
asked about the odds of playing
against the Falcons on Sunday.
Ive improved every day.
Hopefully that continues.
At least there is visible progress
compared to the pain that Nelson
experienced two weeks ago after the
helmet of New York Giants safety
Leon Hall hit the receiver on left
side of his body while he was jumping in trying to catch a high pass.
Nelson bent over in pain on the
sideline. He was taken to the locker
room on the front seat of a cart,
where he was hunched over with his
hands on his face.
Ive never been like that before.
It was the worst pain Ive ever felt.
Hopefully, it doesnt happen
again, said Nelson, who added that
he did not suffer any internal

injuries.
Nelson missed the 34-31 win
over the Cowboys, but did travel
with the team to Dallas.
Asked if Halls hit was dirty,
Nelson said, I dont know. Im not
worried about it. To be honest with
you, my theory was if I dont break
my ribs no one talks about the hit.
Nelson bounced back this season
after missing the 2015 season with
a torn right ACL. He had an NFLhigh 14 touchdown catches in
2016, on 97 receptions for 1,257
yards as Aaron Rodgers top target
in the Packers prolific passing
attack.
While the Packers have withstood the loss of Nelson so far in
the playoffs, they have to deal with
another worrisome injury in the
receiving group after Davante
Adams missed practice with a sore
ankle.
Adams, who had a breakout regular season with 75 catches for 997
yards and 12 touchdowns, got hurt
in the Cowboys game. Coach Mike
McCarthy said that Adams may not
practice until Saturday so that he
can focus on rehab.
Rookie Geronimo Allison was
also added to the injury report this
week with a hamstring injury.
Nelson said he has never played
with broken ribs before, but well
find out, hopefully.
But right now Im just focused
on getting back to full motion and
doing everything and seeing if we
can get that opportunity, and it
would be a great chance to have,
Nelson said.

Bays Ryan Yerby, who did a tremendous job
in containing Orr, who came into the game
averaging 21 points per game.
Orr finished with a game-high 16 points,
but Yerby, who spent the bulk of the game
guarding Orr, forced him to work for every
point. Orr had only four points in the first
half and scored 10 of his teams 12 points in
the third quarter.
That was it.
Yerby had to guard Orr and he (Orr) wasnt
a factor, Forslund said, who said the key
was simply staying in front of the Rams
best player.
LOUNGE
San Mateo boys basketball matchup.
According to Tyler Jamieson, a
Burlingame graduate and longtime statistician and announcer for many Panthers
teams, told me the Panthers basketball
winning streak over the Bearcats stands at
28 straight and they have not lost to San
Mateo since 2000.
During that time, Burlingame has simply
dominated. Since 2007, which encompasses 17 games, the Panthers have won by an
average score of 65.1 to 45.5. Only three
times during that span has a game been
decided by three points or less, the last
coming in the second meeting of 2015
WARRIORS
rebounds off the bench for the Thunder, who
missed center Steven Adams for a second
straight game with a concussion.
Tied at 63 after the game was also even at halftime, the Warriors scored eight unanswered
points with 3s by Thompson and Durant.
Thompson scored ve straight points during the
exact kind of scoring urry Oklahoma City
coach Billy Donovan described before the game
as what makes these star-studded Warriors so
dangerous.
It wasnt that long ago Donovan could only
watch as Golden State rallied from a 3-1 decit to
Yerby also managed to knocked down

three 3-pointers to finish with nine points.
He did a little bit of everything,
Forslund said.
In the first half, Orr appeared content to
try to get the rest of his teammates involved
in the offense. The Rams were running their
half-court set well, but just could not knock
down the shots.
We got a lot of A looks, Yaptinchay
said. But guys werent hitting them.
Theyre capable of doing it.
In the second half, Orr started looking for
his a lot more, but being double- and tripleteamed made things difficult.
Sean cant carry the team, Yaptinchay
said. He scores a lot of our points, but I tell
my kids this is a deep team. Were at our best
when were playing as a team.
The Cougars got off to quick start, open-
ing the game on an 11-2 run. They were up

12-6 with 1:17 to play in the opening quarter when Westmoor used an 8-0 run end the
quarter. Lukas Nodar knocked down a pair of
3-pointers sandwiched around a Marquez
Costiniano slash to the bucket to give the
Rams a 14-12 lead going into the second
period.
Westmoor maintained that lead through
the first four minutes of the second quarter,
before the Cougars got hot. After shooting
5 for 9 from the field in the first period, the
Cougars went 7 for 10 in the second. A baseline layup from Isiah Margate ignited a 154 run to close the half. Margates bucket cut
the Westmoor lead to 20-19 and a Sam
Treanor 3 gave the Cougars the lead for
good, 22-20. After a pair of free throws from
Margate, the Cougars got back-to-back 3s
from Margate and Andrew Saffold to extend
the lead to 30-20 with 1:38 left in the half.

Saffold led the Cougars with 14 points.
Margate had 13 and Treanor finished with
12.
Half Moon Bay led 32-24 at the break.
We couldnt control their runs,
Yaptinchay said.
In the third quarter, Half Moon Bay continued its hot shooting, knocking down 7
of 14 field goal attempts. The Cougars continued to pull away and built a 54-36 lead
going into the fourth.
Perhaps the Cougars strong play had
something to do with an incentive Forslund
gave them coming into this week.
I told them if we wins these games this
week (including Terra Nova Friday), well
take the weekend off, Forslund said.
One down, one to go.
when Burlingame pulled out a 56-54 win.

From 2010 to 2012, the two teams met
only once because of the PALs unbalanced
schedule. In 2011-12 season, they did not
even meet during league play, playing each
other only in the Burlingame Lions Club
Tournament.
So is this the game Burlingames win
streak ends? The possibility has never
been greater than this season. San Mateo
(2-2 PAL South, 11-5 overall) is having
one of its best campaigns in years, while
Burlingame (0-4, 4-12) is struggling like
we havent seen in a long time.
This year, the Bearcats are averaging
55.6 points per game. Burlingame is at
44.5.
So what does all this mean? At the end of
the day, not a lot, thats why they play the
game.

There were a couple of rivalry games

played Tuesday night a West Bay
Athletic League rivalry.
The Sacred Heart Prep boys basketball
team hosted neighbor and rival Menlo
School Tuesday night, where the Knights
continued its resurgence this season, beating the Gators 62-45.
Riley Woodson was a beast for Menlo,
scoring a game-high 26 points, including a
pair of dunks in the third quarter, and grabbing 14 boards. Joe Foley added 16 points
for the Knights.
Tevin Panchal had 18 in the first half for
SHP (3-2 WBAL, 6-8 overall), but he was
held scoreless in the second half.
The win was the fifth WBAL win in a row
for Menlo (5-0, 8-5) who has found its
stride after a tough non-league schedule.
The Menlo girls made it a sweep over its
rival, beating the Lady Gators 69-65.
Knights guard Sam Erisman emerged

from her recent slump to pour in a gamehigh 34 points, including the winning basket on a baseline drive to give Menlo (1-2
WBAL, 10-7 overall) its first WBAL
Foothill Division win of the season.
Mallory North, who scored only five
points for Menlo, sank a 3-pointer with
just over a minute left in regulation to tie
the game at 65.
SHP (1-2, 9-5) had three players score in
double figures, led by freshman Charlotte
Levison, who scored 20. Tatum Angotti
added 18 and Grace Battles finished with
14.

season.
Westbrook shot just 8 for 23 this time and
missed all but one of his six 3-point tries, but
made 10 of 11 free throws.
With 4.4 seconds left in the rst half, Zaza
Pachulia collided with Westbrook and clobbered
the OKC star in the face as the Warriors center
went with his man as Kanter set a screen on
Andre Iguodala. Westbrook went down and
grabbed his face in obvious pain and Pachulia
glared at Westbrook as he stood over him. The
play went to ofcial review before Pachulia
received a agrant 1 foul, drawing boos from the
sellout crowd.
Golden State outscored Oklahoma City 37-22
in the third to turn the game into another
blowout on the way to wrapping up 9-1 stay in
Northern California over the past 3 1/2 weeks.
Durant posted his 11th game with 30 or more

points and fth with at least 30 points and 10

Youre going on vacation, but what about your plants?

By Lee Reich
Winter, especially early winter, is a good

time of year for gardeners to travel.
Houseplants now are most tolerant of neglect and, if we plan a little, they can even
thrive in our absence.
Lack of water is the major threat to neglected plants. But you know how long your
plants can go between waterings. So if your
trip to Florida is for eight days and youve
been watering your schefflera every five
days, just give the plant a thorough soaking
and then add a little extra water to its saucer.
The plant will be fine.
If youre skipping off for a one-month
tour through Brazil, you better do something more with your houseplants before
you leave. The key to plant survival, in this
case, is either to supply water to the plants,
to decrease their water needs, or a little of
both.
KEEPING PLANTS
SUPPLIED WITH WATER
This can test your ability to cajole
friends, relatives or neighbors. But beware
of entrusting plant care to those unfamiliar
with your plants peculiarities; my cyclamen needs water every few days, while some
of my succulents go all winter without a
drop of water.
I use inexpensive automatic watering
devices if my absence is to be longer than
two weeks. A cotton rope, with one end
buried in the soil and the other end dipped in
a pan of water, will wick water to drying
soil.
Another device, slightly more expensive
With a combination of diminished light, high humidity, automatic watering devices and
perhaps the help of a friend, plants could fare well this time of year even after your monthlong
vacation.
but also more reliable, consists of a hollow,
porous ceramic cone with one end of a long,
flexible tube sealed into its lid. The cone
and the tube are filled with water. Theyre
sold as plant watering stakes or plant
watering cones. The cone is pushed into
the soil and the far end of the tube is
immersed in a jar of water. Water lost from
the soil is replenished by water drawn in
from the reservoir.
Do
not
immerse
plants in a
deep
container
of
water in an effort to provide them with an

extended supply of water. Under water, the
roots will suffocate and rot.
DECREASING PLANTS WATER NEEDS

Plants have little holes in their leaves,
called stomata, which let gases in for photosynthesis and let water out (transpiration). Moving a plant from a bright window
to a dimly lit corner decreases photosynthe-
sis, so stomata stay closed more often, and

transpiration decreases. Left too long without enough light, however, plants get
starved for energy (which comes from photosynthesis) and leaves turn sickly and yellow.
Transpiration is how to keep plants cool.
Lowering the air temperature will decrease
plant transpiration and, hence, water use.
This fits well with a travelers needs: No
need to keep your house warm while youre
away on vacation.
Yet another way to slow transpiration is
to raise the humidity around your plants. I
cluster plants together and fill their saucers
with a shallow depth of water. For a longer
vacation, I drape clear plastic, such as a cutopen dry-cleaning bag, over the plants.
Sticks poked into the soil keep the plastic
off plants leaves. Clear plastic umbrellas
are sold that do essentially the same thing
in a neater way.
With a combination of diminished light,
high humidity, automatic watering devices
and perhaps the help of a friend, plants
could fare well this time of year even after
your monthlong vacation.
Caution: None of this advice applies to
succulents, which include cacti and other
fleshy plants such as jade plants and
sedums. These plants thrive on dry conditions, and rot if exposed to too much water,
either in the air or at their roots. In this
respect, they are almost ideal houseplants.
Go away on vacation and forget about them;
tell your plant sitter that too.

BEVERLY HILLS Spread out along a

hillside near the Beverly Hills Hotel,
Susan Gottliebs baseball-field-size home
garden dubbed the Gottlieb Native
Garden boasts more than 100 species of
native plants and brims with wildlife
activity.
Birds flock to a large shrub called toyon,
with white flowers in the summer, fall and
spring, to nibble on its red berries. Bees
descend on towering matilija poppies,
whose large white and yellow flowers
bloom in late spring. Butterflies love fragrant coyote mint, an herb with nectarfilled lavender flowers.
For the 75-year-old Gottlieb, an environmentalist, philanthropist and nature
photographer, the garden has been a labor
of love for nearly 30 years. A new book,
The Gottlieb Garden: A California Love
Story (National Wildlife Federation,
2016), written by Mallory Smith and featuring more than 120 photographs by
Gottlieb, captures the gardens essence.
Native plants are so incredibly important for wildlife and insects, which are the
base of everything, Gottlieb said in an
interview. Most people, in the early
90s, I found, had no clue what a native
plant was, and drought-tolerant plants
werent on the menu either. When I began
the garden, I was a rank amateur. Ive
learned a lot.
According to the Theodore Payne
Foundation for Wild Flowers and Native
Plants, a nonprofit in Sun Valley,
California, native plants not only thrive
in local climates, but they provide food
and shelter for native animals and also
save water.
Yet native plants are not the same as
drought-tolerant plants, Gottlieb stressed.
Many California native plants are
drought-tolerant ... but not all, she said.
And drought-tolerant plants can be from
around the world.
Her garden is on the Theodore Payne
Foundations annual home tour of native
plant gardens, and all profits from the
book go to the foundation and other environmental groups. When the tour started
more than a decade ago, 20 people came to
see her garden; in 2016, hundreds filed
through in a day, Gottlieb said.
The foundations executive director,
Dont get
overwhelmed, and dont do it
all at one time. ... I did it a bit at a
time with my garden, and thats
why its taken me 30 years.
Susan Gottlieb
Kitty Connolly, called the Gottlieb Garden

an inspiration for all gardeners. Susans
skillful use of native plants shows how
gardening can enrich our cities, support
native wildlife and forge a strong connection with our natural heritage.
Originally from a small mining town in
Canada, Gottlieb grew up with water and
nature conservation in mind from a young
age. She later moved to California, worked
as a nurse in San Francisco and Los
Angeles, and met her husband, Dan
Gottlieb, in 1984. Trips to Californias
Death Valley and concern that lakes such
as Owens Lake and Mono Lake would
become dry because of Los Angeles need
for water led her to create a water-saving
home oasis.
She ripped out the moisture-guzzling ivy
growing around her Beverly Hills home
and replaced it first with drought-tolerant
plants, then native plants. Dan and Susan
Gottlieb also own the G2 Gallery, a nature
and wildlife photo gallery in L.A.
Where I grew up, we hauled water to our
home from the well, and electricity was
expensive, she said. It always bothered
me that we use so much water here in
Southern California.
Some of Gottliebs favorite plants in her
garden include the perennial, purple-flowering herb verbena and tall, green, podbearing mesquite trees. She loves sweetsmelling California lilac, a low-growing
shrub whose spring flowers go from white
to dark blue.
For those wanting to create a garden with
native plants, Gottlieb suggested starting
off simple and small.
Dont get overwhelmed, and dont do it
all at one time, she said. I did it a bit at a
time with my garden, and thats why its
taken me 30 years. Take gardening classes.
California plants go dormant in the summer, and Eastern plants tend to go to dormant in the winter. Its good if you can
find a gardening class specific to the
native plants in your area.

council this week directed they further analyze sites at the San Mateo County Event
Center parking lot and the citys corporation yard off Pacific Boulevard.
The city is in the midst of its Clean Water
Program, a 10-year, $900 million capital
improvement plan that includes an overhaul
of the wastewater treatment plant it shares
with several surrounding jurisdictions. But
faced with state mandates it quickly cease
discharging untreated sewage into the Bay,
which occurs during extreme storms, city
officials contend the underground storage
tank is the most effective way of stopping
the problem quickly.
We have a serious problem we need to
deal with, but its not a unique problem,
said Deputy Mayor Rick Bonilla, according
to a live video of the meeting. The entire
situation about how to deal with this problem has been thoroughly vetted. Were at
this point.
Some residents continued to contend the
underground storage tank wasnt the ideal
option, instead urging the city repair at
HOUSING
for the area along Diller Street between El
Camino Real and Franklin Street, with the
condition to reassign 2, 000 additional
square feet of ground-floor space to retail
use. Vice Chair Kevin Bondonno voted
against the project, and Commissioner
Ernie Schmidt recused himself due to a
potential
conflict
of
interest.
Commissioner Shawn White was absent
from the meeting.
The project otherwise known as Greystar
IV will provide 35 on-site affordable housing units for rent and 1,400 square feet of
ground-floor retail. It is the fourth project
proposed by Greystar Developer in
Redwood City. The developer has already
received approval for two other multi-story
residential buildings and has completed
another on the other side of Franklin Street
from this project.
Tuesdays meeting marked the second time

least a portion of the leaky pipes spanning

throughout the city.
Public Works Director Brad Underwood
said the city is analyzing the collection
system and would make improvements to
some problematic areas with broken or
leaky pipes. But even with plans to eliminate as much of the stormwater thats intruding into the sewage system, Underwood
noted the underground tank is an important
component to prevent pollution.
Although theres still dispute from some
residents, Tuesdays meeting was a welcomed relief to those in the Fiesta Gardens
neighborhood. As in numerous other meetings on the issue, residents again helped fill
council chambers wearing green to advocate
their community park be taken off the list as
a potential tank site.
Several residents spoke Tuesday about
how the neighborhood nestled near
Highway 101 and State Route 92 was
already burdened by impacts from construction of massive office and housing developments nearby.
Karina Wilhelms, board member of the
Fiesta Gardens Homeowners Association,
said her neighborhood is a throwback to a
1950s era when children played in the
streets and neighbors took care of each
other. The mother of three young boys said

many residents would be affected by years of
construction should the tank be located at
the well-used Fiesta Meadows Park.
Wilhelms also said how negatively
affected Fiesta Gardens has been by the
urbanization of San Mateo, how close we
are to high-density development. We are
one of the neighborhoods of San Mateo that
experiences these changes more drastically
and more intensely than others.
Councilmembers praised the neighborhood for coalescing to advocate for themselves and heeded concerns.
I feel for the Fiesta Gardens folks and I
thank you for really coming together and
letting your voice be heard, said
Councilwoman Maureen Freschet. I know
your neighborhood has been especially
impacted by whats going on in San Mateo
and by all the buildout. So to me, using one
of these alternatives means we dont have to
disrupt the quality of life in the neighborhood.
Ultimately, even staff and the Planning
Commission had recommended the event
center parking lot or corporation yard were
the best alternatives and should be further
studied.
Still, there are challenges. For one, the
city does not own the event center and

would need to arrange an easement with the
county. The city-owned corporation yard
had also once been considered for housing,
and its not yet clear how the underground
sewage tank would restrict future uses for the
site. Projects at either site are roughly estimated to cost more than $86 million, not
including right-of-way needs.
Other options that had made the citys
short list included the Hillsdale Plaza, an
area near the Caltrain station thats slated
for redevelopment and isnt city owned.
That site was also too small to host a 5.2
million gallon basin, requiring a second
tank be located elsewhere.
The city also contemplated a massive
underground tunnel more than 12 feet in
diameter spanning nearly 6,300 feet along
Delaware Street. However, that was determined to be the least favorable option due
to cost and difficulty of construction,
according to staff.
Staff and consultants will further study the
two preferred alternatives before returning
to planners, the community and council for
a decision.
sion. At a Nov. 1 meeting, the commission

voted to revisit the project at a later meeting to give Greystar time to incorporate recommendations to provide variation in the
buildings facade and visually break up the
buildings mass to differentiate the project
from neighboring buildings.
Converting a portion of the ground-floor
retail into residential units with entry
stoops was among several of the changes
Greystar included in its revised plan. The
developer also updated the colors and
recessed portions of the buildings facade as
well as lowered the height of the buildings
southern corner by one story.
Redwood City residents who came forward
balked at the developments height and
potential for increasing traffic and congestion in the area.
I believe that this location demands a
project that is less massive and sensitive
to the reality of the overcrowding that is
happening in the heart of Redwood City,
said resident Pat Mahoney. I believe
also that we should be considering more
family housing in our town. So many
families have been displaced because of
the rising cost of living here.

Attorney Geoff Carr, who has previously
represented residents organized in opposition to other large downtown developments, encouraged the commission to recommend the applicant lower the building
height.
There is an end to this chitchat and it
ends with me, he said. Make this six stories and you wont get sued.
In 2015, Carr represented Redwood City
Residents for Responsible Development in
a lawsuit against the city with regard to
another eight-story downtown development
at 603 Jefferson Ave. The groups settled in
November, agreeing that the developer
Pauls Corporation would submit a revised
plan for a six-story building. The revised
development was approved by the City
Council earlier this month.
Though
commissioners
ultimately
approved the project, Vice Chair Kevin
Bondonno, who voted against approving
the project, fostered a discussion on
whether the developer had adequately
addressed feedback he had given at the
November meeting to reduce the overall
height of the portion of the building facing

El Camino Real.
This did not move the needle of what I
was looking to accomplish, he said. I
dont see a significant enough adjustment
on the direction that I know I gave. And
knocking off one corner on the south part
alone, this did not move the needle.
Commissioner Rick Hunter expressed
understanding for resident concerns, but
said he felt the commission was limited in
its options.
Unfortunately, I believe that our hands
are fairly tied because although the
Downtown Precise Plan doesnt eliminate
our discretion, it does limit it to deny a project or conditional approval if it meets all
the standards and guidelines, which I think
it does.
In other business, the commission voted
5-1 to approve a building with 10 threestory residential condominiums at 910
Woodside Road just west of a Safeway at the
intersection of Woodside Road and Union
Avenue. The project will replace a one-story
commercial building and parking lot, and
will provide for-sale two-bedroom and
three-bedroom units.

American Humane investigating the

treatment of dog in A Dogs Purpose
LOS ANGELES The organization

that ensures animal safety in film and
television productions said Wednesday
it is investigating whether a frightened dog was forced into churning
water during the making of A Dogs
Purpose.
American Humane has also suspended its safety representative who
worked on the film and is hiring an
independent investigator to explore
the matter, said Mark Stubis, a
spokesman for the organization.
The films producer, Amblin
THREAT
Entertainment,
and
distributor,
Universal Pictures, said in a joint
statement that they are reviewing the
footage, but they are confident that
great care and concern was shown for
the dog, a German Shepherd named
Hercules.
There were several days of rehearsal
of the water scenes to ensure Hercules
was comfortable with all of the
stunts, the statement said. On the
day of the shoot,
People for the Ethical Treatment of
Animals said in a Twitter post that dog
lovers should boycott the film to
send the message that dogs & other
animals should be treated humanely,

not as props.
Actor Josh Gad, who lends his voice
to a dog in the film, issued a statement
on Twitter saying he has asked the studio and production team for an explanation of what he calls disturbing
images.
He said that while the finished film
is one of the most beautiful love letters to animals I have ever seen, he
was troubled by the video.
I am shaken and sad to see any animal put in a situation against its will,
Gad wrote. A publicist for the actor
confirmed the post was authentic.
200 students while another 300 students from the PJCCs preschool were
also forced to leave in response to the
threat. No one was injured and law
enforcement did not find anything to
merit the threat.
The Osher Marin Jewish Community
Center in San Rafael also received a
bomb threat over the phone around the
same time Wednesday morning. The
two Bay Area incidents were among
several reportedly made at Jewish community centers throughout the nation
prompting an FBI investigation.
The FBI and the Justice
Departments Civil Rights Division
are investigating possible civil rights
violations in connection to threats to
Jewish community centers across the
country, said FBI San Francisco
spokesman Prentice Danner.
The
Anti-Defamation
League
announced it received reports Thursday
of bomb threats at Jewish Community
Centers in New York, New Jersey,
Ohio,
Florida,
Massachusetts,
Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota,
Delaware, Connecticut, Alabama,
Maine, Tennessee, South Carolina,
Missouri,
Texas,
Kansas
and
California.
The ADL issued a security advisory to
Jewish institutions while acknowledging the bomb threats do not appear
credible.
ADL CEO
Jonathan
Greenblatt recommended Jewish communal institutions review their security protocol and remain in close contact
with law enforcement.
While each incident needs to be
taken seriously and investigated closely, thus far we are not aware of any of
these threats being substantiated,
Greenblatt said in a statement. Federal
authorities and local police departments should be commended for their
rapid response to these incidents.
The Foster City incident prompted a
response from police, as well as a specialty-trained K9 and bomb technician
with the San Mateo County Sheriffs
Office bomb squad. Nothing suspicious
was found after an exhaustive search
and the facilities were secured around
11:30 a.m., according to Foster City
police.
We take these things very seriously,
wherever theyre called in; especially
when it comes to a school, said Foster

City police Capt. Martin Ticas.
He anticipated the FBI may contact
the department and noted Foster City
police were also working their own
investigation to determine who called
in the threat.
At the Osher Marin Jewish
Community Center, the Marin County
Sheriffs Office and the University of
California at Berkeley Bomb Squad
responded, but no suspicious devices
were found either. The facility was
cleared around 11:45 a.m.
Marin County sheriffs Lt. Doug
Pittman said the Northern California
Regional Intelligence Center confirmed bomb threats were received by
multiple Jewish community centers
across the country.
Staff was allowed to return to the
Foster City day school and the PJCC
had returned to normal operations later
in the day. Wornicks Head of School
Dr. Barbara Gereboss said they train to
respond to incidents such as this and
was proud that the entire community
rallied together.
We do not face bullying or threats
with fear or with panic, but we deal with
these things calmly and thats the messaging to our children, Gereboss said.
As negative as the experience was,
there was a wonderful coming together
of community.
ORACLE
refused to comply with the agencys

routine requests for employment data
and records.
As a federal contractor, Oracle is
prohibited from engaging in employment discrimination on the basis of
race, color, sex, sexual orientation or
gender identity or national origin and
is required to take affirmative action to
ensure that equal employment opportunity is provided to applicants and
employees in all aspects of employment, the Labor Department said.
Earlier this month, the Labor
Department also sued Google, saying
the company has refused to provide the

department with employee compensation records and other information as
part of an audit designed to ensure it
isnt discriminating against workers
based on gender or race.
Oracle, Google and other technology companies have made public commitments to improving gender and
racial diversity in recent years. But
change has been slow to come, and the
companies continue to be dominated
by white (and sometimes Asian) men,
especially in technical and leadership
positions.

In a statement, Oracle Corp. on
Wednesday called the lawsuit politically motivated, based on false allegations and wholly without merit.
The Labor Department said the lawsuit is the result of a review of Oracles
equal employment opportunity practices at its headquarters in Redwood
Shores. According the suit, Oracle has

SUMMARY OF
PROPOSED ORDINANCE
APPROVING REVISED
DEVELOPMENT IMPACT
FEES FOR THE
MILLBRAE STATION
AREA SPECIFIC PLAN
AREA
The City Council of the City
of Millbrae, at its meeting on
Tuesday, January 24, 2017,
proposes to adopt an Ordinance entitled:
AN ORDINANCE OF THE
CITY OF MILLBRAE
ADDING A NEW ARTICLE
5.2 TO CHAPTER 1 OF
TITLE 10 OF THE
MILLBRAE MUNICIPAL
CODE ESTABLISHING A
DEVELOPMENT IMPACT
FEE IN THE MILLBRAE
STATION AREA SPECIFIC
PLAN AREA
The Ordinance revises the
established
Development
Impact Fees within the Millbrae Station Area Specific
Plan (MSASP) Area. The
Ordinance furthers one of
the policies contained in the
MSASP by providing a fair
method for spreading the
burden of infrastructure
costs across the development parcels in the MSASP
Area. The Ordinance imposes the revised Development
Impact Fees upon new construction within the MSASP
Area to fund the cost of certain facilities, including street
improvements, streetscape
and landscaping enhancements, utilities infrastructure,
parkland, and other public
facilities. The Ordinance
provides that the Fees are to
be paid at time a building
permit is issued, unless otherwise provided by law. The
Ordinance exempts certain
improvements
from
the
Fees, including replacements of destroyed or damaged buildings, and provides
for certain credits towards
Fees due. The Ordinance also establishes a process for
appeals regarding the imposition or calculation of the
Fees. The Ordinance provides that the amount of the
Fees is to be established by
a separate resolution adopted by the City Council.
Copies of the proposed ordinance are on file and can be
made available for inspection at the Office of the Millbrae City Clerk at 621 Magnolia Avenue, Millbrae, California.
This Ordinance was introduced for a first reading on
January 10, 2017 and all
five members of the Council
who were present voted in
favor thereof.
The foregoing Summary
was prepared by the City Attorney who is the official
designated by the City
Council to prepare the Summary provided for in Government
Code
Section
36933(c)(1).
