Urged by her daughter not to cry as fire-

children that their current situation in a

her mind as to whats next for her family,
the Belmont community is pooling

Tara told her children to get their shoes

into their car so she could move it onto the
street outside the building and away from
the unit, which was filling with smoke. She

the car and not move so she could retrieve

Millbrae eyes interim recreation center
Officials consider hiring builder for temporary facility during rebuild process
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
As a temporary means of filling the void
left in wake of an arson fire claiming the
Millbrae Recreation Center, officials are
considering building an interim facility to
house community enrichment programs.
The Millbrae City Council will consider
Tuesday, Feb. 28, paying $1.18 million to
Design Space Modular Buildings for con-
struction of a temporary Recreation Center
while officials develop plans for rebuilding
the permanent structure.
Officials scrambled immediately follow-
ing the July arson fire to find adequate facil-
ities throughout Millbrae and neighboring
cities to house the variety of displaced pro-
grams while concurrently seeking a more
reliable and sustainable solution.
Financing for the interim project will be
available through the $2.5 million paid by
the citys insurer, according to a city report
which anticipates the temporary building
could be used for two or three years.
Once the permanent building is eventual-
ly finished, the temporary facility could
have some resale value as well, according to
the report. Officials are still engaged in
negotiations with the insurer regarding the

full compensation for the value lost in the
fire.
Two teens were arrested in late July last
year and charged on suspicion of starting
the early-morning blaze claiming the center
constructed nearly 50 years ago. A subse-
quent investigation found the building was
ignited accidentally.
Officials have since held a series of com-
munity meetings designed to collect input
from residents regarding the services and
design of the new building which officials
are hopeful to begin constructing late next
year or early 2019. Some officials have sug-
gested a bond or tax measure might be nec-
essary to finance construction of a modern
facility offering the variety of amenities
sought by residents.
Councilmembers agreed last year to hire a
consultant charged with leading officials
through the rebuild process. A subcommit-
tee responsible for overseeing the process
recommended pursuing the interim center
while developing plans for the replacement
increased building fees charged to develop-
site.
While groundwork is being laid for the
permanent center, officials would like the
interim site to house recreation staff, as
well as a business counter plus flexible
rooms able to accommodate meetings,
classes and events, according to the report.
Should councilmembers approve hiring
the modular contractor, they would begin
surveying available public parking lots on
city lands to host the facility, according to
the report. Officials are hopeful to move
into the temporary center by April.
Three qualified bidders expressed interest
in the project, and the preferred alternative
identified by city staff is the lowest offered
quote. The two other applicants suggested
the project would cost more than $1 mil-
lion.
The selected bidder will also supply an
additional modular office and temporary
generator to power the facilities, pushing

In other business at the meeting, coun-
cilmembers stand to formally adopt
ers wishing to build in the 116-acre site near
the citys train station.
Builders should pay about $25,900 per
new residential unit, $6, 300 per hotel
room, $45 per square foot of retail space, $9
per square foot of office space and $4.55 per
square foot of industrial space, under the
most recently recommended rates.

77,000 square feet of retail space, more than
436,000 square feet of offices and a hotel in
the area surrounding the joint Millbrae
Caltrain and Bay Area Rapid Transit station
have opposed the fee hikes, claiming they
are too burdensome.
Officials recently decreased the amount
sought for a new residential unit by $5,000,
but said they believed the fees overall are
fair and comparable to rate charged in
neighboring communities.

Removal of lawmaker to be investigated
By Jonathan J. Cooper

from the chamber last week a stunning
and extraordinarily unusual move that raised

Trump looks to refocus his presidency in address to Congress
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON President Donald Trumps
first address to Congress gives him a welcome
opportunity to refocus his young administra-
tion on the core economic issues that helped
him get elected and, his allies hope, to move
beyond the distractions and self-inflicted
wounds that have roiled his White House.
Trumps advisers say he will use his prime-
time speech Tuesday to declare early progress
on his campaign promises, including with-
drawing the U.S. from a sweeping Pacific Rim
trade pact, and to map a path ahead on thorny
legislative priorities, including health care and
infrastructure spending.
We spend billions in the Middle East, but we
have potholes all over the country, Trump said
Monday as he previewed the address during a
meeting with the nations governors. Were

The White House said
Trump has been gathering
ideas for the address from
the series of listening ses-
sions hes been holding
with law enforcement offi-
cials, union representa-
Donald Trump tives, coal miners and oth-
ers. Aides said he was still
tinkering with the speech Monday night.
Republicans, impatient to begin making
headway on an ambitious legislative agenda,
hope Trump arrives on Capitol Hill armed with
specifics on replacing the Obamacare health
law and overhauling the nations tax system,
two issues hes so far talked about in mostly
general terms. More broadly, some
Republicans are anxious for the president to set
aside his feuds with the media, the intelligence
community and the courts, which have over-
shadowed the partys policy priorities.
Results arent going to come from that,
said Judd Gregg, the former Republican senator
from New Hampshire. Results are going to
come from driving the policies he said he would
do.
The pressure from Republican lawmakers
makes this a critical moment for a new presi-
dent who ran for office on a pledge to swiftly
shake up Washington and follow through on
the failed promises of career politicians.
While most new presidents enjoy a honey-
moon period, Trump is saddled with record low
approval ratings just 44 percent of
Americans approve of his job performance,
according to a new NBC News/Wall Street
Journal survey. His most sweeping executive
order was blocked by federal courts, sending

expected to sign on Wednesday.
Morale is also plummeting among some
White House staffers following a string of
leaks that have left aides questioning each
other. On Sunday, Politico reported that White
House press secretary Sean Spicer had sprung
surprise phone checks for members of his
communications team after details from a staff
meeting were made public.
In public, Trump has continued to speak
about his presidency with his usual confident
bluster, declaring that theres never been a
presidency thats done so much in such a short
period of time. But hes privately vented frus-
trations to friends and associates, particularly
about what he sees as the ineffectiveness of the
White Houses communications efforts and the
scattershot nature of his first weeks in office.

Pentagon presented counter-IS plan to White House

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON Defense Secretary Jim
Mattis on Monday gave the White House a
plan to rapidly defeat
the Islamic State group, a
Pentagon spokesman said
Monday. The strategy
includes significant ele-
ments of the approach
President Donald Trump
inherited, while potential-
ly deepening U.S. military
involvement in Syria.
Jim Mattis
Navy Capt. Jeff Davis
said Mattis, who traveled to Iraq last week to
help inform his thinking, presented the
results of a 30-day strategy review at a
Cabinet-level meeting of the National
Security Council. Its unclear whether the
meeting included Trump, who said last week
his goal is to obliterate IS.
White House press secretary Sean Spicer
said Mattis was ensuring that he had input
from other Cabinet agencies.
That can help guide where we go from
here, Spicer said.
Davis said details of the report are classified
secret.
It is a plan to rapidly defeat ISIS, Davis
said, using the Pentagons preferred acronym
for the group, which has proven resilient
despite losing ground in its strongholds in
Syria and Iraq.
Officials familiar with the review have said
it will likely lead to decisions that mean more
U.S. military involvement in Syria, and pos-
House, Davis said, but its not a check-the-
sibly more ground troops, even as the current
U.S. plan in Iraq appears to be working and
will require fewer changes. The officials
werent authorized to speak publicly about
the document and demanded anonymity.
Davis described the Mattis report as a
framework for a broader discussion of a strat-
egy to be developed over time, rather than a
ready-to-execute military plan. In a Jan. 28
executive order, Trump said he wanted within
30 days a preliminary draft of a plan to
defeat ISIS. Davis said the report defines
what it means to defeat the group, which he
wouldnt reveal to reporters.
It also includes some individual actions
that will require decisions by the White
block, pick A or B or C kind of a plan.
This is a broad plan, he said. It is glob-
al. It is not just military. It is not just
Iraq/Syria.
Beyond military options, the officials
familiar with the review said the report
increases emphasis on nonmilitary elements
of the campaign already underway, such as
efforts to squeeze IS finances, limit recruiting
and counter propaganda that is credited with
inspiring violence in the U.S. and Europe.

CALTRAIN
Continued from page 1
By agreeing to an extension, Caltrains
contractors have demonstrated their commit-
ment to preserving this unique opportunity to
deliver unprecedented improvements to an
aging commuter rail system that serves
65,000 riders every day and a project that will
put thousands of Americans to work through-
out the country, Caltrain Executive Director
Jim Hartnett said in a statement.
However, its not engineering contractors
that need convincing of the project benefits;
its the Trump administrations newly
appointed Secretary of Transportation Elaine
Chao.
California Republicans who say Caltrains
electrification is too closely connected to the
controversial high-speed rail project sent a
letter to Chao Jan. 24 urging no further fund-
ing be allocated until an audit of the states
project is conducted.
Proponents for Caltrain electrification,
including several dozen Bay Area representa-
tives, contend the project has independent
utility regardless of whether high-speed rail
comes to fruition. They also note the grant is
sought by Caltrain, not the High-Speed Rail
Authority, which agreed to share the
Peninsula tracks through a blended system.
Without providing a firm rationale, the FTA
indicated it would delay the decision until the
president releases his proposed budget, which
he released a blueprint of Monday with more
details expected in April.
But Trump is known for his unprecedented
style. And, a recent suggestion to increase
military defense spending $54 billion while
slashing other domestic programs, may not
bode well even as the 45th president has
expressed commitment to infrastructure
improvements.
Still, Caltrain officials note theyve spent
years working with the FTA and that the proj-
ect had been fully vetted.
Were very optimistic that the [grant
NATION
agreement] will be approved. The project was
recommended for approval after thorough
evaluation by FTA. It has met all statutory
requirements. Every other project that has met
those milestones has been approved for fund-
ing and we dont expect Caltrain electrifica-
tion will be any different, Caltrain Chief
Communications Officer Seamus Murphy said
in an email.
The multi-billion dollar project is fueled by
local, regional and state funds, but the $647
million federal grant is imperative. Costs
have already increased from $1.5 billion a few
years ago to nearly $2 billion. After awarding
contracts September 2016 to Balfour Beatty
to electrify the tracks and Stradler U.S. to
deliver new trains, Caltrain now has until June
30 to give a green light for construction or
risk costs ballooning further.
Our contractors have agreed to delay con-
struction for the maximum amount of time
possible, Hartnett said. Delaying a decision
on federal funding beyond June 30 will be the
same as rejecting the grant.
Also, the longer it waits assuming the
FTA, Trump and Congress decide to approve
the grant the more Caltrain may have to
pay for the extensions. The $20 million it
may spend would otherwise have been used to
satisfy construction contingency costs,
which Murphy said may need to be covered in
the future.
Representatives with Stradler, which is
slated to open an assembly plant in Utah due
to its Caltrain deal, and Balfour expressed ded-
ication to their work electrifying the

Wage theft is preventable

any flaws ultimately
doomed President Trumps
labor secretary nominee
Andrew Puzder, but among the most
serious were allegations that his own
companies had failed to comply with
the very same wage laws that the
Labor Department is responsible for
enforcing. In Puzders case, the issue
was that his fast food companies had
failed to pay workers for all the hours
they had worked, including overtime.
This is called wage theft and its
much more common and widespread
than you probably think.
It also impacts far more than just
workers. When businesses steal work-
ers wages, they gain a competitive
advantage over honest businesses
that play by the rules. And, when
wages are stolen, so are required pay-
roll and income taxes that are used to
fund all types of public services
services on which every taxpayer
relies.
In California, wage theft costs tax-
payers about $8.5 billion every year,
according to the Franchise Tax Board.
About 10 percent of that comes from
the construction industry, where Ive
worked for much of my career.
While there are state and federal
agencies tasked with enforcing labor
laws the reality is that just a frac-
tion of the employers who cheat their
workers are ever brought to justice.
Many workers who are victimized
never file claims. Amongst those who

The clamor over fake news is both in-

interesting because were being bom-
barded with fake news, and much of it
comes from reliable sources in the
news media.
A number of people and organizations
claim to have solutions, but who gets
to determine which news is real and
which is fake?
However, the solutions they suggest
seem to be a form of censorship favor-
ing the very same news media that is
giving us fake news.
Perhaps doing away with anonymous
reliable sources might help? Some-
times reliable sources and sources
close to the subject have a vested in-
terest in the outcome.

enforcement statis-
tics really only
encourage more law-
breaking.
In a construction
context, it works
like this. A builder
or general contrac-
tor hires subcontractors to do much of
the work on a project. If one of the
subcontractors cheats his workers,
the lead contractor or builder can
legally deny having any responsibili-
ty. President Trump has done this on
his own projects.
Subcontractors can then disappear,
shut down, shift assets to a relative,
or reform under a different name to
avoid payment. And then the cycle
repeats.
But what if the building project on
which the wage theft occurred wasnt
permitted to open or start leasing
space until the builder, lead contractor
and subcontractors could all certify
that all workers had been paid proper-
ly for the hours they worked?
The answer is, youd have a lot less
wage theft. But its up to local cities to
enact ordinances that require this level
of accountability. Its called wage
transparency, and the San Mateo City
Council will be considering such an
ordinance later this spring.
The nations first such ordinance
was enacted in the city of Berkeley

Local wage transparency rules are
not a panacea to the problem of wage
theft in every industry. But they are a
logical first step for the construction

grow by more than 400 percent in the

The stars are only
present in darkness
A
democratic and free society in which all per-
sons will live together in harmony and with
equal opportunities ... is an ideal for which I
am prepared to die. These were the last chilling words of
Nelson Mandelas three-hour speech before hundreds at his
criminal trial proceeding in the Pretoria Supreme Court of
South Africa on April 20, 1964. His words echoed in and
beyond the corridors of the courtroom. Silence command-
ed the great hall as Mandela undoubtedly awaited his death
sentence. After all, he knew that others had been given
the death penalty for less than his charge inciting oth-
ers to go on strike and demanding an end to the apartheid.
As such, he was equally surprised by the courts verdict
a sentence to life imprisonment in Robben Island, one of
the darkest, most ruthless prisons on the face of the Earth.
I am going to pause here and draw your attention to a
helpful analogy to describe Mandelas 27-year imprison-
ment, his enlightenment behind stone walls, and his ulti-
mate victory in achieving a more colorblind South Africa.
World renowned writer and poet
Oscar Wilde once said: We are all
in the gutter, but some of us are
looking at the stars. Ironically,
we cannot see the stars that light
our planet and universe without
the company of darkness. Like the
night sky, there are often times in
our lives when only the darkest of
hours can allow us to see star
lights which guide our path to a
revelation, blessing or enlighten-
ment. History tells us that numer-
ous world leaders have uncovered Jonathan Madison
the source of their greatest
visions and achievements in dark moments. Here, we exam-
ine one of the greatest examples Nelson Mandela.
Feb. 11, 2017, marked the 25th anniversary of
Mandelas release from prison. We ought not to remember
it as just a historical date rather, we ought to truly
examine the toll of his struggle. Twenty-seven years is an
unfathomable amount of time to imagine being locked
behind stone walls. Fortunately, his difficult journey was
not in vain we know today that his confinement repre-
sented a significant step in the rebirth and renewal of
racial justice in his home country.
Before his life sentence in prison, Mandela sought to
achieve a colorblind South Africa by teaching anti-
apartheid activists that black liberation would not come
without armed force. The government subsequently attrib-
uted hundreds of sabotage attacks on power facilities,
machines and posts to Mandelas active resistance move-
ment over the next two years.
Desmond Tutu, a longtime friend to Mandela, stated that
Mandela once confided in him that prison transformed the
once violent activist into a peaceful and wise leader the
same leader the world witnessed unite a country on the brink
of war, according to a Time magazine article. Mandela also
suggested that jail helped him learn how to turn his enemies
into friends, said Tutu. This was the element missing from
Mandelas youthful days of protest a genuine understand-
ing of how to unite, rather than drive people apart.
Mandelas test of time in prison allowed him to better
understand the power that unification could bring for all
South Africans and with that, the wisdom to achieve it.
Mandelas long, dark and isolated experience in prison
allowed him to see the stars enlightening his understanding
that the plight of his people would not be changed by acts
of violence that had plagued the country for nearly a centu-
ry. This understanding was revealed when Mandela was
elected president of South Africa in 1994, enabling him to
unite the country and abolish the apartheid movement.
It is mind-boggling that someone can face such darkness
in a lifelong imprisonment sentence, and within that
prison find the courage and wisdom to complete the battle
for which they started nearly three decades before. Mandela
should be recognized for his ability to mature from his
once violent approach to a more peaceful resolution in
achieving the free and democratic society he envisioned.
The buck does not stop with Mandela. Countless others
who have achieved greatness have also experienced great
trials, tribulations and dark moments, such as Eleanor
Roosevelt, Oprah Winfrey, Muhammad Ali, Sandra Day
OConnor, etc.
I only wish to remind you that periods of darkness are
challenging, but limited in time. Behind every darkness
blazes stars of hope, guidance and blessing. I encourage
you to embrace the challenges and dark moments you face
in your daily life. Remember that the stars in our lives
often shine the brightest in our darkest moments.
Sometimes all we have to do is look up to achieve resolu-
tion in our human struggle.

Dow Jones rally longest since 1987 Takata Corp.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Wall Street notched another set
of milestones Monday as the Dow
Jones industrial average closed at
a record high for the 12th consec-
utive time, the longest winning
streak for the 30-company average
in 30 years.
The Standard & Poors 500
index, the benchmark favored by
professional investors, also
closed at a record high.
The latest push into the record
books came on an indecisive day
for U.S. stocks that sent indexes
wavering between small gains and
losses for much of the day. They
ultimately eked out tiny gains, led
by energy stocks, which climbed
as the price of crude oil rose.
Phone companies lagged the
most.
Many investors were taking a
wait-and-see approach ahead of
President Donald Trumps speech

for details of promised tax cuts,
infrastructure spending and other
business-friendly policies.

McNab closes standout career at NDB

TERRY BERNAL/DAILY JOURNAL
Notre Dame-Belmonts Cam McNab dribbles baseline in
her final high school game Saturday against HMB.
By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Cam McNab just sounds like a ballers
name.
A senior at Notre Dame-Belmont,
McNab has certainly lived up to the dis-
tinction of baller. In four years of varsity
girls basketball with the Tigers, the big-
play flex guard with the all-out hustle and
knack for always finding a way to frus-
trate opponents has earned herself the
praise of NDB head coach Josh
Davenport, who refers to her as one of
the best hes ever seen in his 23 years
with the program.
Shes a special player, Davenport
said. We havent had a player like her in
a long time. I would say in our heyday in
the late 90s, early 2000s, we might have
had a player like her that had that kind of
scoring ability, and shooting ability, and
play-making ability. But its been a long
time since we had someone with the
skillset she possesses and heart.
While 2008 graduate Jacqueline
Bisordi holds the all-time scoring record
at NDB, McNab still figures among the
top 10 with such greats as Lauren Gualco.
While precise statistics were not avail-
able, Davenport estimated McNab aver-
aged approximately 16 points per game
this season.
And historically, shes the best 3-
point marksman Davenport has coached
at NDB, he said.
She is the best pure shooter that
weve had over that course of time,
Davenport said.
A second-generation San Carlos
native, McNab grew up the daughter of a
mother who graduated from Carlmont and
a father who graduated as a football blan-
ket winner from Serra. While her two
older brothers took the Carlmont route,
McNab followed in her father Dons foot-
steps by opting for private school.
As a varsity call-up midway through
her freshman year, McNab had a tough go

With Menlo-Atherton taking five
wrestlers to the CIF Girls Wrestling State
Finals, it was already a historic trip to
Visalia for the Lady Bears.
Senior 106-pounder Chelsea Wilson,
however, took history to a whole other
level, a level that has earned her Daily
Journal Athlete of the Week honors.
Wilson advanced to the championship
match then battled back from a 7-point
deficit to earn a third-round pin of Corona

pound individual state championship. The
state title marks the first ever in M-A pro-

is the first.
Seeded No. 1 in her weight class, Wilson
was expected to contend for the unprece-
dented title. The path she had to navigate
to get to the gold, though, was an absolute
minefield.
With conventional wrestling brackets,
the No. 1-seeded wrestler opens against a
low seed, then works up to a championship
match where, if everything goes according
to plan, said wrestler takes on the No. 2
seed. This was not the case with Wilson,
however.

event held Friday and Saturday at
the Visalia Convention Center,
Wilson, in just her second match
of the tournament, had to face
Trina Nguyen, the No. 2-ranked
wrestler out of the South Section
and a two-time All-American. It
was the second of five gritty victo-
ries for the four-year varsity sen-
ior Wilson.
Even Wilsons first match
against Los Banos junior Haley
Ballez was a nail-biter, as the
showdown went into the third
round before Wilson earned the
pin. Then against Nguyen, Wilson
escaped with a 6-4 victory. She
went on to defeat team state-cham-
pion Selma sophomore Merijah
Morales ranked No. 1 in the
Central Section by the slight
margin of 4-2. Wilsons easiest
win of the tourney came in the
semifinals against James Logan
senior An Vo ranked No. 1 in
the North Coast Section with a
5-1 decision.
That was the gauntlet, Hoang
said. You could probably look
back and say no wrestler had to
ever face such a challenge in the
quarters and semis.

Chelsea Wilson in the first
round, but it
was still a disaster as Ceja scored a
takedown and two 3-point near
falls to jump out to a 7-0 lead.
Hoang said it was the largest
deficit he could remember Wilson
ever facing.
But then the senior made her
championship ascent.
In the second round, Wilson
closed the gap, drawing to within
7-5 entering the third and final
round. The rudimentary decision to
start the third round on the top or
bottom then loomed large.
We had a tough decision to
make, Hoang said. We had two
minutes to decide if she should be
on top to try and get that take-
down, or take the bottom, and then
the threat is you maybe cant get
up.
Hoang said Ceja is such a strong
leverage wrestler when she gains
the upper hand that the choice was
simple. Wilson had to start on
top, the drawback of which was

tying 1-point maneuver to force
overtime. She had to go all-out for
the third-round victory.
It really left us no choice,
Hoang said.
Wilson was the aggressor, but it
wasnt until midway through the
final round that she earned the pin.
The championship takedown start-
ed with an arm bar. From there, she
worked her opponent deliberately.
She was able to take an arm and
run it over the shoulder, Hoang
said. That allowed her to turn
Ceja. She took awhile. That
turn was a big deal.
Turning her opponent would
have been enough on the score-
card, as had Wilson not produced
the pin, she would have gone
ahead by virtue of a 3-point near
fall. But the senior finished her
historic high school career in
style by scoring the pin, then
popping to her feet to have her
arm raised, exhausted as she was,
as M-As first-ever state
wrestling champ.
Wilsons 28 points in the tour-
ney led M-A to a ninth-place fin-
ish out of 146 teams. All five of
M-As wrestlers won matches in

Bucks Beasley DUBS
injures knee in
scary moment
By Tom Withers
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CLEVELAND Michael Beasley headed
home on crutches, his immediate future and
Milwaukees playoff hopes in doubt.
Beasley sprained his left knee in a frighten-
ing scene during the first quarter against the
Cleveland Cavaliers on Monday night. As he
was trying to defend LeBron James, Beasleys
left leg buckled grotesque-
ly and he crumpled to the
floor under the basket.
Beasley, who has given
Milwaukee an offensive
spark this season, imme-
diately signaled for help
and had to be helped off the
court by teammates Thon
Maker and Greg Monroe.
Michael He also needed assistance
Beasley to get to the locker room.
Hes scheduled to have tests on the knee
Tuesday in Milwaukee.
Well see how he is, coach Jason Kidd champion Jimmie Johnson and others, and
said. Hopefully its not bad where he can get
back because hes playing at a very high level
for us. To lose him and you could see our strug-
gles to score, we missed him tonight.
Beasley scored 11 points before going
down, and the Bucks didnt have enough
offense in a 102-95 loss to the Cavs, who
packed the lane to stop All-Star Giannis
Antetokounmpo. He finished with just nine
points on 4-of-13 shooting.
But Beasleys injury was far more concern-
ing for the Bucks.
Obviously everyone was really worried,
guard Matthew Dellavedova said. You think
the worst, but he seemed in pretty good spir-
its when we got back here. You never want to
see someone go down.

announced earlier Monday that Embiid
would be out indefinitely after experiencing
swelling and soreness in his left knee fol-
lowing recent practices. Embiid leads the
team with 20.2 points and 7.8 rebounds per
game but has missed 14 straight games and
17 of the last 18.
The Warriors took control in the third
quarter, using a 12-3 run over the first 2:31
of the period to turn a three-point halftime
edge into a 71-59 cushion. The lead grew to
84-70 with 3:41 left in the third on Durants
two free throws.
Philadelphia tried to make it a game, but
Golden State had too much firepower, even
as it made just 6 of 29 from deep.
Thats the dangerous part of picking a
game plan, 76ers coach Brett Brown said.
When you take away something, some-
thing else gets exposed. Its hard to guard

Not Currys night
Curry air balled his first 3-point try of the

It was wreck after wreck after wreck on

D.J. Kenningtons debut in the Daytona
500 produced a better nish than Earnhardt
and Matt Kenseth, both two-time Daytona

Kyle Busch.
Cole Whitt was at one point the race
leader, and before Busch stole the victory,
it appeared the win could go to either
Chase Elliott, Kyle Larson or Ryan Blaney
a trio with an average age of 22 and one
win in a combined 209 starts.
That Busch led just one lap, the last one,
was tting for this race. It was the rst
time in 59 years that the winner led only
the nal lap.
Its hard to know why so many drivers
struggled, or if racing in stages produced
the problems. The aggression on the track
could be attributed to anxious drivers run-
ning their rst real race following the off-
season. It could be that the back half of the
grid just isnt that talented. Consider: This
Daytona 500 lacked Jeff Gordon, Tony
Stewart, Carl Edwards and Greg Bife, fea-
tured rookies Daniel Suarez and Erik Jones
and the debuts for Kennington, Corey
LaJoie, Joey Gase and Jeffery Earnhardt.
AJ Allmendinger nished third and
thought the stages made a difference.

game and missed the rim from deep again
later in the first quarter.
Curry displayed his frustration through-
out the first half with head shakes, leg slaps
and some choice words to himself.
All but three of them were almost wide
open, he said.
Curry followed up his miserable perform-
ance against the Lakers by setting an NBA
record with 13 made 3-pointers on Nov. 7
against New Orleans. Hell get a chance for
a similar rebound on Tuesday night at
Washington.
I dont ever get down on myself, he
said. I still have confidence the next one is
going in.
Hart beat too
Comedian Kevin Hart, a Philadelphia
native, was seated courtside next to 76ers
owner Josh Harris. Hart visited the
Warriors locker room after the game, but
during it, he tried unsuccessfully to distract
Golden State.
Its impossible to give a PG-rated ver-
sion of what he was saying, Green said.
Over the last couple years, its kind of
hard to make moves through the middle of
the pack through the eld with 20 to go.
Everybody was trying to get up there and
make sure they got the track position.
Thats what happens here.
Blaney, give him credit, tried to win in a
backup car and didnt shy away from
pulling out of line to try to make a run at
the win.
I tried to make a move with 10 (laps) to
go to see what would happen. No one real-
ly went with me, runner-up Blaney said.
Elliott ran out of fuel. So did Larson.
Same with Martin Truex Jr. And so Kurt
Busch won, then Monster threw a rager to
celebrate. For the cut-rate price the compa-
ny is paying for naming rights report-
edly about $20 million a year it likely
recouped its initial investment on opening
day based on publicity alone.
In the end, the television rating was up,
the mood was mostly upbeat and Monster
was as proud of Buschs victory as it was of
Gronks all-nighter. At Buschs Monday
winners breakfast, Monster vice president
of sports marketing Mitch Covington
noted that Gronk had put in a 24-hour shift
for the company.
That a hard-partying NFL player could
steal thunder from the Daytona 500 winner
is a problem NASCAR has to address. The
big names are getting old, and the sport is
going to be in desperate need of some
superstars very soon.
And if NASCAR intends to be the rock
star that Monster can create, its going to
need far better racing that it got at
Daytona.

Steelers place franchise tag on running back LeVeon Bell
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

And a person with knowledge of the
details said the New York Giants have told
defensive end Jason Pierre-Paul that he,
too, will get the franchise tag. The person
with direct knowledge of the move spoke
on condition of anonymity because the
Giants didnt announce the decision.
The Giants have to designate Pierre-Paul

long-term agreement by July 15.

to the Masters isnt what it used to be.
For the last three years, Adam Scott has
played at least three tournaments in Florida
before heading to the Masters. Upon leaving
the Honda Classic this year, he will log more
than 19,000 miles before he arrives at
Augusta National.
That journey includes a trip home to
Australia. It does not include an appearance at
the Dell Match Play in Austin, Texas.
Scott is not alone.
Henrik Stenson, who plans to play three
times in the month leading to the Masters,
has chosen to sit out Match Play for the sec-
ond straight year. Justin Rose wants to play
the Arnold Palmer Invitational, and because
he wants to play the week before the Masters,
he is likely to skip the Match Play for the
first time.
Its like that for all the top players, cour-
tesy of a PGA Tour schedule that is jam-packed
with tournaments that are hard to skip

Doctors worry about teen pot use amid looser laws
By Lindsey Tanner
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CHICAGO An influential doctors group
is beefing up warnings about marijuanas
potential harms for teens amid increasingly
lax laws and attitudes on pot use.
Many parents use the drug and think its
OK for their kids, but we would rather not
mess around with the developing brain, said
Dr. Seth Ammerman.
The advice comes in a new report from the
American Academy of Pediatrics, published
Monday in Pediatrics. The group opposes
medical and recreational marijuana use for
kids. It says emphasizing that message is
important because most states have legalized
medical use for adults, and many have decrim-
inalized or legalized adults recreational use.
Those trends have led parents to increas-
ingly ask doctors about kids use, said
Ammerman, a Stanford University pediatrics
professor who co-wrote the report.
Parents will say, I use it moderately and
Im fine with it, so its really benign and not
a problem if my kid uses it, he said.
Doctors need to know how to respond to
that thinking, and parents and teens need to
know the risks, Ammerman said.

Potential harms
The brain continues to develop until the
early 20s, raising concerns about the poten-
tial short- and long-term effects of a mind-
altering drug. Some studies suggest that
teens who use marijuana at least 10 times a
month develop changes in brain regions
affecting memory and the ability to plan.
Some changes may be permanent, the report
says.
Frequent use starting in the early teen years
may lower IQ scores, and some studies have
shown that starting marijuana use at a young
age is more likely to lead to addiction than
starting in adulthood. Not all teen users
develop these problems and some may be
more vulnerable because of genetics or other
factors.
Medical versus recreational use
Solid research on medical marijuanas
effects in children and teens is lacking,
although some studies have suggested it may
benefit kids with hard-to-treat seizures. The
report says other potential benefits, doses
and effects are mostly unknown.
Recreational use is illegal for those under
age 21 even in states that allow adult use.

Pressure on GOP to revamp health law grows, along with rifts

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON President Donald Trump
declared Monday that Nobody knew that
health care could be so complicated. Yet the
opposite has long been painfully obvious
for top congressional Republicans, who face
mounting pressure to scrap the law even as
problems grow longer and knottier.
With the GOP-controlled Congress start-
ing its third month of work on one of its mar-
quee priorities, unresolved difficulties
include how their substitute would handle
Medicaid, whether millions of voters might
lose coverage, how their proposed tax credits
would work and how to pay for the costly
exercise.
The nonpartisan Congressional Budget
Office made things complicated recently by
giving House Republicans an informal
analysis that their emerging plan would be
more expensive than they hoped and cover
fewer people than former President Barack
Obamas statute. The analysis was described
by lobbyists speaking on condition of
anonymity to discuss private conversations
with congressional aides.
In a fresh blow, a lead-
ing House conservative
said late Monday that he
was opposing a prelimi-
nary version of GOP leg-
islation that emerged last
week. Rep. Mark Walker,
R-N.C., objected that the
draft would not immedi-
Mark Walker ately end the expansion
of Medicaid under
Obamas health care overhaul and would cre-
ate new tax credits to be paid to people, even
if they owed little or no federal taxes.
Walker heads the Republican Study
Committee, which traditionally represents
most House Republicans. He said in a state-
ment that he could not in good conscience
recommend support without significant
changes.
House Ways and Means Committee
Chairman Kevin Brady, R-Texas, said
Republicans have made numerous changes to
that draft, but Walkers objections under-
scored internal tensions over the effort.
For many in the party, those problems,
while major, are outweighed by pledges
theyve made for years to repeal Obamas
2010 law and substitute a GOP alternative.
Conservatives favoring full repeal are pitted
against more cautious moderates, and gover-
nors looking to curb Medicaids costs also
worry about constituents losing coverage.
But Republicans see inaction as the worst
alternative and leaders may plunge ahead as
soon as next week with initial House com-
mittee votes on legislation.
I believe they have left themselves no
choice. Politically they must do some-
thing, Douglas Holtz-Eakin, a Republican
economist and health analyst, said Monday.
Trump spoke about health cares complex-
ities on a day he held White House talks with
dozens of governors worried Republicans
could shift a huge financial burden to the
states by curbing Medicaid, the federal-state
program that helps low-income people and
those in nursing homes pay bills.
Republican governors told reporters later
that Trump would describe some specifics of
his own plan in an address Tuesday to a joint
session of Congress.
Trump also met with insurance company
executives concerned that uncertainty about
possible GOP changes could roil the market-
place.
Trump said the current health insurance
market is going to absolutely implode a
contention he and other Republicans have
made repeatedly. With premiums, deductibles
and other out-of-pockets costs increasing in
many individual markets, Democrats concede
that changes are needed. But they contest
that dire description and have no interest in
helping Republicans kill Obamas statute.
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-
N.Y., told reporters that Republicans have
yet to win any Democratic support for their
effort and said the odds are very high
Obamas law wont be repealed.
Congress returned Monday from a recess
that spotlighted hurdles the GOP faces.
Many Republicans endured rough recep-
tions at town hall meetings from activist
backers of Obamas overhaul. Governors
meeting in Washington received a consult-
ants report warning that planned Republican
cuts in Medicaid and federal subsidies for
consumers buying private insurance would
risk coverage for many people and serious
funding gaps for states.

While marijuana is expected to make up a

originally designed to sustain itself by pro-

popular in the homeopathic world.

to continue its upward trajectory as voters in
more states embrace the idea of legalizing
marijuana, market researchers say. Eight
states and Washington, D.C., have legalized
marijuana for recreational use, while New
Mexico and more than two dozen states have
medical marijuana programs.
Only licensed nonprofit producers are
allowed to grow medical marijuana in New
Mexico, and the competition is fierce. For
example, more than 80 applicants filed paper-
work with the state in 2015, and only 12
licenses were granted.
Bright Green officials dont intend to seek a
state license, saying their operation would be
on tribal land and subject only to tribal and
federal laws.
Under a 25-year agreement with Acoma
Pueblo, Bright Green has vowed that whatev-
er plants it grows and the oils it produces
would adhere to federal regulations.
What we plan on doing is working with the
FDA to approve our novel prescription drugs.
I am continually overwhelmed with joy
and pride at the way that our community
steps up to help folks in need of help, he
said.
Pang-Maganaris said the GoFundMe
page, as well as a Facebook page where res-
idents can post photos of household items
they are willing to donate to the two fami-
lies, were launched Saturday night. Two
days later, over $12,000 has been raised by
120 people, with more donations coming

oil business, chief executive John Stockwell
said. To spend this much money and to inte-
grate this much technology, were looking to

the solution, not part of the problem.
The Trump administration has warned of a
crackdown on recreational marijuana use, but
White House spokesman Sean Spicer has said
the president does not oppose medical mari-
juana.
Kris Krane, president of Boston-based
4Front Ventures , an investment and consult-
ing firm focused on the medical marijuana
industry, said its too early to tell how the
administrations comments will affect the
marijuana business but that those on the med-
ical side are feeling somewhat reassured.
Krane said the economic effects are hard to
ignore. As this industry grows, job opportu-
nities grow, tax revenue grows and ancillary
businesses grow around them. Its been a real
financial boon for the states where its been

implemented, he said.
Still, Krane questioned the size of the New
Mexico project given the states stance on
recreational use and the relatively small
medicinal market. Such a large greenhouse has
the potential to produce four times the annual
volume of medical marijuana used in the state,
with no opportunity for shipping beyond
New Mexicos borders because of current fed-
eral laws.
Bright Green and Acoma Pueblo say the
focus is on the future.
Chris Ahmie with Acoma Business
Enterprises described the marijuana debate as
complex and contentious. He said the goal is
to create what he called a gold-standard facili-
ty that would be recognized internationally.

their congressional representative to continue
work on issues important to the community.
Like many town halls held throughout the
country, there was no shortage of topics to dis-
cuss since the Trump administration began
making sweeping changes to federal policies
following a contentious election that left much
of the nation divided.
Universal health care, immigration, climate
change, the appropriateness of the Electoral
College, education, womens rights, the LGBT
community and other hot topics were raised
during Speiers nearly two-hour gathering
titled A Conversation about America.
People speaking up around the country is so
important, Speier said.
While pressed with dozens of varied ques-
tions, there was consistency in her responses
upholding the Constitution must be para-
mount to combating some of the Trump initia-
tives that have left millions in fear, she said.
Noting whats at the top of the U.S. govern-
ments organizational chart, she emphasized
the Constitution is whats going to protect
us.
Hoping to inspire continued participation in
shaping the nations future, she appealed to the
audience as our efforts to stop things, is
going to have to be in the courts, and with all
of you.
Issues surrounding immigration and health
care were two areas that drew impassioned pleas
from the audience.
Trumps promises to crack down on undocu-
mented immigrants is particularly pertinent on
the San Mateo County coastline where
Hispanic workers help drive a rich agricultural

Included in Paus purchase of the approxi-
mately 40,000-square-foot property is 20,000

older brother Charley Lochtefeld will operate

well. In an offering memorandum circulated
this summer, the property was offered for sale
at a price of $20 million.
In 2010, Eric and Lori Lochtefeld purchased
the property out of foreclosure for $6 million.
Since then, the theaters offerings have grown
alongside Redwood Citys downtown activi-

industry and the tourism economy on which
Half Moon Bay depends.
For so many years, this community has
lived under fear, under fear because they dont
know if they have rights, said 20-year coast-
side resident Yolanda Novelo.
Although a few speakers sought Speiers
input for encouraging sanctuary status, particu-
larly statewide, the congresswoman indicated
it was not a policy she felt would make the dif-
ference supporters expected.
Instead, she said weve got to get serious
with how were going to deal with the fact there
are 11 [million] to 12 million undocumented
immigrants in this country, Speier said, sug-
gesting reforming the citizenship process was
a better course.
A strong supporter of the DREAMers who
signed up under Obamas executive order to pro-
tect children who were brought to the country
illegally, she said I will stand in front of them
if ICE attempts to deport them.
In an emotional address to Speier and those
in attendance Saturday, Shivam Bhatt spoke
about the recent Kansas incident in which a
man allegedly killed an Indian tech worker he
believed was Middle Eastern. Bhatt, who is
Indian and noted his mixed-race family includes
a young son, as well as his wife teared up during
the meeting.
This is my country? Where do I go? he
asked, expressing fear about the future of
America.
You stay right here, Speier said.
She noted demonizing the other only pro-
vides fodder to those trying to divide the
nation and emphasized we are a country that is
the melting pot of the world.
While some carried signs about resisting fas-
cism and even suggesting the new president
wasnt fit to serve, at least one attendee brave-
ly stood in opposition arguing it was unfair for
liberals to categorically condemn
ties, many of which have blossomed in
Courthouse Square, just across the street from
the iconic entertainment venue. Eric
Lochtefeld estimated the theater has drawn over
150,000 people to the average of 300 events
offered annually.
We decided Redwood City being as hot of a
market as it could be, that this might be the
best time to test the market and see if there were
interested buyers out there, said Eric
Lochtefeld. We were very interested in finding
a buyer that wanted to continue the great tradi-
tion of the Fox Theatre.
The Lochtefelds have seen rents for the four
tenants in the propertys office space triple in
the last five years, with two tenants, cloud
computing company Upthere, Inc. and data
management company DeepDive, indicative of
the influx of technology and startup companies
Republicans.
There are other people in Half Moon Bay
that voted for Trump, said Chris Petropoulos,
a Republican who noted many others joined
him in electing the president. I want you to
keep an open mind, there is a reason why half
of the people in this country voted for Donald
Trump.
Despite a verbal spat with a nearby attendee
who suggested Trump was a fascist, the meet-
ing remained generally respectful and Speier
emphasized Petropoulos had a right to share
his views.
Some also sought Speiers commitment on
pressing issues such as investigating the
administrations ties to Russia, requiring
Trump to disclose his tax returns and preserv-
ing the Affordable Care Act.
A mother holding her children stood and
praised the ACA for helping her son to receive
treatment for asthma, another woman urged
funding for Planned Parenthood continue, and
dozens with signs suggesting universal health
care were present.
I support Medicare for all, I think thats the
simplest way, Speier said.
Other issues that arose included Speiers
account of college students living in their cars
and the need to support higher education, two
local middle school students who feared LGBT
rights were at risk, the future of the Democratic
National Committee, issues with the national
voting process and more.
As the diverse group met with Speier less
than a mile from the beach, concerns about the
presidents effect on national climate change
policies were also feared in an area where bil-
lions of dollars of infrastructure is at risk both
on the Bayfront and coastside.
We are ground zero in this county for sea

drawn to Redwood Citys growth.
For the Lochtefelds, the sale comes at a time
when they are seeing returns on the investment
they made in the city, which included several
partnerships with the city and other downtown
businesses and organizations to increase
engagement with the downtown.
In our first year, we quickly realized that if
downtown Redwood City did not quickly rise up
that our efforts would be in vain, said Eric
Lochtefeld.
The couple was pleased to have found in Pau a
shared interest in continuing the renowned the-

Iraqi troops push Malaysian officials run into

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

TOKYO Malaysian police

BAGHDAD Iraqi forces pushed
deeper into western Mosul on
Monday, gaining control of a
neighborhood along the Tigris
River and the foot of one of the
citys five bridges amid intense
clashes with Islamic State mili-
tants, a senior Iraqi police com-
mander said.
Maj. Gen Thamir al-Hussaini said
the militarized Federal Police
pushed deeper into the Gawsaq
neighborhood and reached the
bridge known locally as the 4th
Bridge.
All of Mosuls bridges spanning
the Tigris River and connecting the
western part of the city, still held by
the Islamic State group, with its
eastern sector, were disabled by
airstrikes last year.
Al-Hussaini told The Associated
Press that IS militants were fighting
back with snipers, anti-tank mis-
siles and suicide car bombs, describ-
ing the clashes as fierce. He said
Iraqi troops suffered casualties, but
didnt give a specific number.
Iraqi forces later moved into the
nearby Wadi Hajar neighborhood,
