PHS seeks home for cat that survived rat poison
BAY CITY NEWS SERVICE
The Peninsula Humane Society & SPCA is
seeking an owner for a cat that improbably
survived ingesting rat poison and was res-
cued at a workplace in Menlo Park in
October.
The 7-month-old female cat named Millie
ingested bromethalin, a toxin in over-the-
counter rodenticides, and was found by a
good Samaritan on Oct. 2 in extremely bad
shape, humane society officials said.
“He recognized immediately the cat was
very sick and brought her to us,” PHS/SPCA
spokeswoman Buffy Martin Tarbox said in a
news release. “She was completely coma-
tose, and over the following days had inter-
mittent seizures. She was in such bad shape
we didn’t expect her to survive.”
However, Millie was able to somehow sur-
vive the poison, which causes fluid to gath-
er in the brain and spinal cord, causing
severe swelling of tissues, seizures, coma
and death.
Humane society officials say the cat has
impaired sight and will likely never be neu-
rologically normal, so they are seeking a
household for her that will keep her as an
indoor cat, ideally one that is quiet with no
small children.
Millie is spayed, vaccinated,
microchipped and her adoption fee is $80.
People can visit her at the PHS/SPCA shel-
ter in Burlingame at 1450 Rollins Road.

SACRAMENTO — Xavier Becerra became
perhaps the nation’s most influential attor-

California’s top lawyer two years ago, and
he has since used his post atop what some
call the “Resistance State” to pummel
President Donald Trump’s administration

following wildfire links
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO — The parent company
of California’s largest utility is assessing
its finances and structure in the wake of
wildfires blamed on its equipment that could
cost it billions of dollars in liability.
PG&E announced the assessment Friday
in a news release, citing “the growing wild-
fire threat.”
It said its board of directors is engaging
outside experts for advice on wildfire safety,
but it did not identify any potential plans to
address liability or safety.
“We want to tap fresh perspectives and
additional expertise to help address the
changing nature of PG&E’s business and the
challenges it faces now and in the future,”
the board said in a statement.

It is also looking into selling real estate
assets, including its San Francisco head-

The utility is facing numerous lawsuits
involving wildfire losses and scrutiny of its
power line safety by a U.S. judge overseeing
a separate criminal case against it.
State fire investigators blamed the utili-
ty’s power lines for causing several wild-
fires in October 2017.
Investigators have not determined the
cause of a massive wildfire that destroyed
the town of Paradise in November. PG&E
reported an outage around the time and place
that the fire ignited.
The fire killed at least 86 people and was
the deadliest in California history.

High court to take a new look
at partisan electoral districts
By Mark Sherman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — The Supreme
Court is plunging back into the issue
of whether electoral districts can be
too partisan.
Disputes have arisen in cases
involving North Carolina’s heavily
Republican congressional map and a
Democratic congressional district in
Maryland, and the justices said Friday
they will hear arguments in March.
The high court could come out with
the first limits on partisan politics in
the drawing of electoral districts, but
also could ultimately decide that feder-
al judges have no role in trying to
police political mapmaking.
The court took up the issue of parti-
san gerrymandering last term in cases
from Wisconsin and the same
Maryland district, but the justices
failed to reach a decision on limiting
political line-drawing for political
gain.
Justice Anthony Kennedy had said he
was open to limits. He has since
retired, and Justice Brett Kavanaugh
has taken Kennedy’s seat. He has no
judicial record on the issue.
The court again has taken one case in
which Democrats are accused of unfair-
ly limiting Republicans’ political
power and one in which Republicans
are the alleged culprits. The court also
has the entire North Carolina congres-
sional map before it, but only the one

TAMAQUA, Pa. — Parents are going

In November, Republicans won at
least nine of the 13 seats in North
Carolina’s congressional delegation

election officials have so far declined
to certify the results in the 9th District

The teachers union had already filed
suit to overturn the policy.

NEWMAN — The flag-draped casket of a California
police officer who authorities say was shot to death by a
man in the country illegally was carried
in a procession Friday through the
streets he once patrolled to a public
viewing in a community theater.
The killing of Cpl. Ronil Singh has

a border wall, which has forced a partial government shut-

People waving American flags lined up along the streets
of the Central Valley town of Newman, where a viewing was
held for Singh, who was shot Dec. 26 during a traffic stop.

China begins its first surface

exploration of moon’s far side
By Ken Moritsugu
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BEIJING — A Chinese space rover

explored the lunar terrain on Friday in the
world’s first mission on the surface of the
far side of the moon.
Jade Rabbit 2 drove off a ramp the previ-
ous night and onto the soft, powdery surface
after a Chinese spacecraft made the first-
ever soft landing on the moon’s far side. A
photo posted online by China’s space
agency showed tracks left by the rover as it
headed away from the spacecraft.
“It’s a small step for the rover, but one
giant leap for the Chinese nation,” Wu
Weiren, the chief designer of the Lunar
Exploration Project, told state broadcaster
CCTV, in a twist of U.S. astronaut Neil
Armstrong’s famous comment when he
became the first human to walk on the moon
in 1969. “This giant leap is a decisive move
for our exploration of space and the con-
quering of the universe.”
Previous moon landings, including
America’s six manned missions from 1969
to 1972, have been on the near side of the
moon, which faces Earth. The far side has
been observed many times from lunar

Tropical storm’s rain, surging
seas strike Thailand beaches
By Sumeth Panpetch
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NAKHON SI THAMMARAT, Thailand —
Rain, wind and surging seawater from a tropi-
cal storm buffeted coastal villages and world-
famous tourist resorts on southern Thailand’s
east coast on Friday, knocking down trees and
utility poles and flooding roads.
One person was reported dead and another
missing after a fishing boat with a crew of six
capsized in high waves, but there were no
reports of major damage by nightfall. It
appeared that Tropical Storm Pabuk caused
aggravation during the country’s high tourist
season but less damage than had been feared.
Airlines and boat operators suspended oper-
ations for safety reasons and tourists were
forced to change travel plans.
Beaches were closed, but even with the bad
weather approaching, tourists on the popular
island of Koh Samui in the Gulf of Thailand
continued to patronize bars and restaurants
catering to them.
That was good fortune for the tourism indus-
try, whose safety problems were highlighted
last July when 47 Chinese tourists drowned

after their boat sank in rough seas near the
popular resort of Phuket.
Ahead of this week’s storm, more than
6,100 people in four provinces were evacuat-
ed, according to the Department of Disaster
Prevention and Mitigation.
The Meteorological Department said the
storm had maximum sustained winds of 65
kilometers (40 miles) per hour at late after-
noon, down from 75 kph (47 mph) when it hit
land shortly after noon.
It continued to warn of strong winds and
waves 3-5 meters (10 to 16 feet) high in the
Gulf of Thailand and 2-3 meters (6 to 10 feet)
in the Andaman Sea. It advised all ships to
stay ashore through Saturday and warned of
possible storm surges on the Gulf coast.
“We can expect heavy rain and downpours,
flooding and flash floods in the area through-
out the night,” department Director-General
Phuwieng Prakhammintara said.
Evacuation efforts were especially intense
in Nakhon Si Thammarat province, about 800
kilometers (480 miles) south of Bangkok,
where authorities sent trucks through flooded
streets with downed power lines, urging peo-
ple in danger zones to leave.

THE DAILY JOURNAL
Adopt, don’t shop this holiday season
By Brooke Hanshaw
A
lthough the holidays seem to
be over, many of my friends
are adding a new member to
their family in the form of puppies or
kittens. It’s undeniably special and
adorable to open up a box and see a
puppy waiting to be given all the
attention in the world. This isn’t
about how puppies aren’t cute,
because that’s an argument even I’d
love to see someone try to make —
it’s virtually impossible. I’m writing
this to give readers something to con-
sider going forward when it comes to
adding another member to your fami-
ly.
One could call me a little biased
toward rescues, simply because my
family had such a great experience.
Living in San Mateo, we looked
online at the Burlingame and San
Francisco SPCA centers for months,
searching through pages of dogs all
different breeds and ages. After much
discussion and promises of responsi-
bility from my sisters and I, we head-
ed up to the SPCA in the Mission
District to take home a dog we’d had
our eye on for the past few weeks.
Upon visiting with the dog and a
few others, we ended up taking anoth-
er one home who was a little less
jumpy and much more reserved. With
a small adoption cost of $100, he was
already neutered, had all his necessary
shots and wasn’t even a year old.
Patience was the key to making him
comfortable around us: letting him
walk around our backyard with his
leash on, carrying him outside con-
stantly for potty training, and lots of
pets and love — easy in a household
of three girls. Although it took him
about three weeks to go on his first
real walk, and in those first three
weeks he felt safer in his crate than in
his bed, we got to see him transform
from a nervous and reserved puppy
into a protective and affectionate dog.
Fast-forward to today, and he barks
strictly at strangers (and the mailman,
of course) and gets so excited when we
come home whether we’ve been gone
for 20 minutes or four hours. His

favorite thing in
the world is going
on walks or runs,
despite him being
extremely cautious
at first. The reward
of patience and
love has earned my
family and me an
amazing dog, not
to mention he’s a great mix of shep-
herd and hound and constantly gets
compliments. Saying he’s a rescue
and seeing faces of surprise on neigh-
bor’s faces gives me an amazing and
proud feeling of how far he’s come,
one I want others to experience as
well.
Not everyone has amazing rescue
experiences, which is why I want to
stress research. One of the best things
about rescuing from the SPCA, in my
opinion, is that most animals have
been there long enough for the staff
to have learned their behavior and aid
you in rescuing one that will fit into
your family. Not every dog is a pit
bull or an older dog that requires
weeks or months of patience, but
patience is required in the research
process. Searching different rescue
sites, visiting with different animals
and discussing with your own family
and staff what you want and need are
all extremely important factors to get
the reward of a great addition to the
family.
As I’m writing this, I’m also brows-
ing the San Francisco SPCA sites,
finding dogs of all breeds and ages.
It’s understandable for families to
want hypoallergenic dogs or pure-
breds due to animal allergies and
many other reasons, all which are
valid and understandable. Who doesn’t
want an adorable golden retriever
puppy? I would, except that the first
website I click on for that specific
type tells me I also need to pay
$2,000. It cost my family $100 for an
amazing dog, which was a puppy at
the time we rescued him.
If you are a firm believer in the idea
that purebreds are healthier and better
than mixes, I also urge you to do your
research on that topic before making

a decision. This debate goes back
many years with many studies con-
ducted and evidence for both argu-
ments. The Institute of Canine
Biology has a detailed page on a study
conducted six years ago, with data
from 27,000 dogs, to determine the
likelihood of genetic disorders in
mixed breeds versus purebreds. It
found that the “incidence of 10 genet-
ic disorders was significantly greater
in purebred dogs,” while the incidence
of only one disorder was greater in
mixed breeds. All of the evidence,
data and graphs are included at the

Adoption helps reduce the demand for
mills while simultaneously opening
up another spot for a new animal to
be moved into the shelter and put up
for adoption; you might possibly be
saving two animals with one rescue.
The debate between shopping and
adopting has fair and valid arguments
on both sides, but I hope I’ve at least
given you something to think about.

Awaiting developments
F
or the last several years, what I think of as my “day
job” involves walking around Redwood City and
neighboring communities and then writing what
about I’ve learned in both this column and in my blog,
“Walking Redwood City.” As I walk I keep my eyes open
for anything that might interest someone living in our
area. Of course, I also constantly keep an ear to the
ground, gathering information about upcoming projects,
new businesses and the like.
With 2018 behind us, my attention turns to 2019 and
what sort of changes Redwood City can anticipate.
Development in downtown Redwood City boomed shortly
after the adoption of the Downtown Precise Plan in 2011,
but thanks to that plan’s caps on new office space and
housing units, development downtown should finally slow
to a more normal pace in 2019. Don’t expect development
citywide to slow down, however. Developers have simply
shifted their focus beyond the Downtown Precise Plan area.
One key factor in what should
make this year interesting is our
recent City Council election.
Two of the open seats were
replacing outgoing coun-
cilmembers who many in the
community regarded as pro-
development. Taking those
seats were a member of the
Planning Commission and a
woman who has long been an
advocate for fair housing.
Together these two may cause a
shift in the City Council’s over-
all direction. In particular their Greg Wilson
membership on the council may
affect how it views certain large development projects that
have yet to come before that body: projects such as
Broadway Plaza, a mixed-use development which is intend-
ed to replace the mostly empty shopping center on
Broadway at Woodside Road. Our council may well find
itself torn between a desire for more housing and a reluc-
tance to approve more development.
With one new member of the City Council having moved
up from the Planning Commission, that commission now
finds itself with two vacancies, ones that the City Council
will fill by appointment. I’ll be closely watching the com-
mission’s new members to see how they affect that body’s
decisions and direction.
For some time, I’ve been tracking a number of existing
projects with interest, projects that I’m eager to see com-
pleted. For one, Redwood City’s Magical Bridge play-
ground, which finally got underway late in 2018, is sched-
uled to wrap up this summer. In downtown, 2019 should
see the completion of the “Broadway Station” building at
the prominent corner of Broadway and Jefferson Avenue.
That building is of particular interest due to its nearly
27,000 square feet of retail space. I’m really curious to see
who occupies it. For a similar reason I’ll be watching the
progress of the 851 Main St. project. Although it has a
much smaller amount of retail — only 6,900 square feet —
the building’s location midway between Broadway and
Stambaugh Street may well prove to be key to the revital-
ization of Main Street as a popular destination for both
shoppers and diners. And finally, for a completely different
reason I’ll be monitoring the nearly complete Stanford in
Redwood City project. That development’s four office
buildings will bring in a large number of employees who
in turn should have a noticeable effect on the area’s traffic.
I’ll be curious to see just what that effect is and how the
city handles it.
Redwood City has three significant housing projects that
have already been approved but have not yet broken
ground. Given our crushing need for more housing, and
Humanity’s 20-unit, six-story condominium building slat-
ed for 612 Jefferson Ave. Another is the 117-apartment
senior housing project planned for 707 Bradford St. And
the third is the 125-unit apartment building that should
soon commence construction at 353 Main St. Although
none of them will be completed this year, I’ll be satisfied
just to see them get underway.
Along that same line, I can’t wait until construction
restarts on the old Hallmark House apartment building at
531 Woodside Road. This building, which consisted of 72
apartments affordable to very-low income households, has
been uninhabitable ever since it was damaged by fire in
late 2013. For various reasons, after a brief start, the build-
ing has remained largely untouched, but it seems that
rebuilding should finally get back underway very soon.
Hallmark House likely won’t be ready for occupancy until
the year 2021, but the sight of ongoing work will certain-
ly be encouraging.
Redwood City has a lot more to look forward to in the
year 2019, but even just the items I’ve mentioned should
be enough to ensure a good year. It certainly should be for
me. As I walk around Redwood City in 2019, it’s clear that
I’ll have plenty to see and write about.

Stocks swing to huge gains

after jobs report, trade talks
By Marley Jay
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Global stocks
soared Friday and reversed the big
losses they suffered just a day earli-
er. The Dow Jones Industrial
Average rallied 746 points in the
latest twist in a wild three months
for markets.
Hopes for progress in the U.S.-
China trade dispute, a strong report
on the U.S. jobs market and
encouraging comments from the
head of the U.S. central bank about
its interest rate policy all com-
bined to cheer investors.
China’s Commerce Ministry said
trade talks will be held Monday and
Tuesday in Beijing, and investors
will again look for signs the
world’s largest economic powers
are resolving their dispute. The
tensions have dragged on for near-
ly a year, slowing business and
dragging down stock indexes
worldwide.
Meanwhile the Labor
Department said U.S. employers
added 312,000 jobs last month, a
far stronger result than experts had
anticipated. U.S. stocks have tum-
bled since October as investors
worried that the economy might
slow down dramatically because of
challenges including the trade dis-
pute and rising interest rates.
The stock market’s plunge also
threatened to shake up the confi-
dence and the spending plans of
businesses and consumers. Some
analysts said investors were acting
as if a recession was on the hori-
zon, despite a lack of evidence that
the U.S. economy is struggling.
“It’s hard to square recession
worries with the strongest job
growth we’ve seen in years,” said
Alec Young, managing director of

Business brief
Fewer affected in Marriott
hack, but passports a red flag
BETHESDA, Md. — Fewer Marriott guest records than
previously feared were compromised in a massive data
breach, but the largest hotel chain in the world confirmed
Friday that approximately 5.25 million unencrypted pass-
port numbers were accessed.
The compromise of those passport numbers has raised
alarms among security experts because of their value to
state intelligence agencies.
The FBI is leading the investigation of the data theft and
investigators suspect the hackers were working on behalf
of the Chinese Ministry of State Security, the rough equiv-
alent of the CIA.
The hackers accessed about 20.3 million encrypted pass-
port numbers. There is no evidence that they were able to
use the master encryption key required to gain access to that
data.
Unencrypted passport numbers are valuable to state intel-
ligence agencies because they can be used to compile
detailed dossiers on people and their international move-
ments.
In the case of China, it would allow that country’s securi-
ty ministry to add to databases of aggregated information
on valued individuals. Those data points include informa-
tion on people’s health, finances and travel.

Donald Trump speaks to reporters following a meeting with congressional leadership on the ongoing partial government
shutdown in the Rose Garden of the White House.
Trump says shutdown could
last for ‘months or even years’
By Catherine Lucey,
Lisa Mascaro and Jill Colvin
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — President Donald
Trump declared Friday he could keep
parts of the government shut down for
“months or even years” as he and
Democratic leaders failed in a second
closed-door meeting to resolve his
demand for billions of dollars for a bor-
der wall with Mexico. They did agree to
a new round of weekend talks between
staff members and White House offi-
cials.
Trump met in the White House
Situation Room with congressional
leaders from both parties as the shut-
down hit the two-week mark amid an
impasse over his wall demands.
Democrats emerged from the roughly
two-hour meeting, which both sides
said was contentious at times, to report
little if any progress.
The standoff also prompted economic
jitters and anxiety among some in
Trump’s own party. But he appeared in
the Rose Garden to frame the upcoming
weekend talks as progress, while mak-
ing clear he would not reopen the gov-
ernment.
“We won’t be opening until it’s
solved,” Trump said. “I don’t call it a
shutdown. I call it doing what you have
to do for the benefit and the safety of
our country.”
Trump said he could declare a national
emergency to build the wall without
congressional approval, but would first
“We won’t be opening until it’s solved.
... I don’t call it a shutdown. I call it doing what you
have to do for the benefit and the safety of our country.”
try a “negotiated process.” Trump previ-
ously described the situation at the bor-
der as a “national emergency” before he
dispatched active-duty troops in what
critics described as a pre-election stunt.
Trump also said the hundreds of thou-
sands of federal workers who are fur-
loughed or working without pay would
want him to “keep going” and fight for
border security. Asked how people
would manage without a financial safe-
ty net, he declared: “The safety net is
going to be having a strong border
because we’re going to be safe.”
Democrats, on the other hand, spoke
of families unable to pay bills and
called on Trump to reopen the govern-
ment while negotiations continue.
Senate Democratic Minority Leader
Chuck Schumer said, “It’s very hard to
see how progress will be made unless
they open up the government.”
Friday’s White House meeting with
Trump included eight congressional
leaders — the top two Democrats and
Republicans of both chambers. People
familiar with the session but not
authorized to speak publicly described
Trump as holding forth at length on a
range of subjects but said he made clear
he was firm in his demand for $5.6 bil-
lion in wall funding and in rejecting the

Democrats’ request to reopen the gov-
ernment.
Trump confirmed that he privately
told Democrats the shutdown could drag
on for months or years, though he said
he hoped it wouldn’t last that long. Said
Trump: “I hope it doesn’t go on even
beyond a few more days.”
House Democrats muscled through
legislation Thursday night to fund the
government but not Trump’s proposed
wall. However, Senate Majority Leader
Mitch McConnell has said those meas-
ures are non-starters on his side of the
Capitol without the president’s sup-
port.
A variety of strategies are being float-
ed inside and outside the White House,
among them trading wall funding for a
deal on immigrants brought to the
country as young people and now here
illegally, or using a national emer-
gency declaration to build the wall.
While Trump made clear during his
press conference that talk on DACA
(the Deferred Action for Childhood
Arrivals program) would have to wait
and that he was trying to negotiate with
Congress on the wall, the conversa-
tions underscored rising Republican
anxiety about just how to exit the shut-
down.

New Democrats get
early political lesson
By Laurie Kellman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — The education of the star-studded class
of House freshmen has begun.
Lesson one: Speaking with the blunt-
ness of a candidate can produce swift and
uncomfortable results.
Rep. Rashida Tlaib learned that before
lunch Friday, when her profane remarks
the night before vowing to impeach
President Donald Trump drew almost no
support, and plenty of pushback, from
members of her party.
Rashida Tlaib “It’s been pretty intense,” Tlaib, D-
Mich., told the Associated Press in a
brief hallway interview Friday as she reported to the House
to face her colleagues.
Hours after Tlaib was sworn in as part of the history-mak-
ing class of freshmen that helped flip the House to
Democratic control, she ran afoul of the widespread sense
among her colleagues that they should focus for now on
health care and other policies rather than impeachment —
at least until special counsel Robert Mueller’s investiga-
tion concludes.
“We’re gonna impeach the motherf---er,” Tlaib exclaimed
during a party Thursday night hosted by the liberal activist
group MoveOn, according to video and comments on
Twitter.
It was a striking coda to the Democrats’ heady ascendance
to the House majority Thursday, sparking unusually public
corrections from House veterans.
“I disagree with what she said,” said House Judiciary
Committee Chairman Jerrold Nadler, D-N.Y., during a CNN
interview. His committee would be the one to begin
impeachment proceedings.
“It is too early to talk about that intelligently,” Nadler
said. “We have to follow the facts.”
Newcomers routinely stumble as they learn how things
are done on Capitol Hill. But Tlaib and her classmates have
been celebrated in magazine profiles for their independence
and their promises to stand up to the powers that be. By
rebuking one, the more seasoned Democrats were effective-
ly warning the others.
“I think some of our new members probably don’t realize
that you are always on, that when you are a member of
Congress, there’s always someone listening,” said Rep.
Jan Schakowsky, D-Ill.
Wall debate obscures other
struggles at the US border
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN DIEGO — In Washington, it’s all about the wall. At
the border, it’s only part of the story.
Border authorities are struggling with outdated facilities
ill-equipped to handle the growing increase in family
migrants, resulting in immigrants being released onto the
streets every day. The immigration court system is so
clogged that some wait years for their cases to be resolved,
and lacks funding to pay for basic things like in-person
translators. An increase in sick children arriving at the bor-
der is putting a strain on medical resources.
But the Washington debate has focused almost exclusively
on the $5 billion in wall spending that President Donald
Trump wants. Other proposals being discussed keep the rest of
the Homeland Security department funding at existing levels.
“The wall is a tool. Unfortunately even if it’s implement-
ed across the border it isn’t a solution to all the problems,”
said Victor M. Manjarrez, a former Border Patrol chief with
more than 20 years of experience, now a professor at the
University of Texas-El Paso.

Washington Gov. Inslee to pardon marijuana convictions
By Gene Johnson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SEATTLE — More than six years after
the state legalized the adult use of marijua-
na, Washington Gov. Jay Inslee said
Friday he plans to pardon thousands of
people convicted of small-time posses-
sion charges — the latest in a series of
moves by states and cities to ease the bur-
dens people face from having minor crim-
inal records for using pot.
The Democrat, who is mulling a 2020
presidential run, made the announcement
at a cannabis industry summit in SeaTac,
south of Seattle. Inslee said he was creat-
ing an expedited process that would allow
about 3, 500 people to apply for and
receive a pardon without having to hire a

Stocks surged on the news, along with word
that the U.S. and China will hold trade talks
next week and comments from Federal
Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell that the
Fed will be flexible in judging whether to
raise interest rates further. The Dow Jones
industrial average shot up 747 points, or
3.3 percent.
President Donald Trump called the job
growth “GREAT” on Twitter.
The torrid hiring in December far out-
stripped the 180,000 jobs investors had
been anticipating and could help ease fears
that the economy’s expansion — now in the
middle of its 10th year — may be coming to
an end.
“The labor market is very strong even
though the economy appears to be slow-
ing,” said Eric Winograd, senior U.S. econ-
omist at the investment management firm
AllianceBernstein. “Those two things can-

“We have people who
have this burden on
their shoulders from a
simple, one-time mari-
juana possession from

and that’s impeding the
ability of people to live
their lives,” Inslee said
Jay Inslee in an interview. “It can
damage their ability to get financing for a
home; it can damage their ability to get
financing for colleges, even simple
things like going on a field trip with your
kids.
“We should not be punishing people for
something that is no longer illegal,” he
said.
not coexist for very long. Either weaken-
ing demand will lead firms to dial back the
pace of hiring or the robust pace of hiring
will lead firms to ramp back up produc-
tion.”
In recent weeks, financial markets have
plunged amid concerns that the U.S. could
be in a recession by 2020. The Dow suffered
its worst December since the middle of the
Depression in 1931.
Major companies such as Apple say their
sales are being jeopardized by the tariff war
between Washington and Beijing, and an
important gauge of U. S. manufacturing
posted its steepest decline in a decade
Thursday.
China, the world’s second-largest econo-
my, is also mired in a slowdown, its con-
sumers losing much of their appetite for real
estate, iPhones, Ford vehicles and jewelry
from Tiffany & Co.
The U. S. government shutdown and
Trump’s attacks on the Fed and its chairman
over the central bank’s rate increases have
also worried investors, though Powell may
have eased some of those concerns Friday
when he stressed that he would not resign if
Several states allow for expunging or
sealing marijuana convictions, but
obtaining such relief has typically been
onerous, requiring a lawyer or court
appearances. As more states have eased
marijuana laws or followed the lead of
Washington and Colorado in legalizing
recreational pot use since 2012, some
cities, counties and states have simplified
the process of clearing convictions.
Seattle, San Francisco, Denver and some
local prosecutors in New York City, where
marijuana remains illegal, are clearing old
marijuana convictions en masse, and a
new law in California requires prosecutors
to erase or reduce an estimated 220,000
pot convictions.
Inslee’s plan appears to be the first that
creates a streamlined process for pardon-
the president told him to do so.
The strong job growth suggests employ-
ers believe U.S. consumer spending will
stay robust.
Health care and education added 82,000
jobs last month, the largest jump in nearly
nine years. Restaurants and drinking places
posted a net gain of 40,700 jobs. Builders
added 38,000 construction jobs, while man-
ufacturers increased their payrolls by
32,000 workers.
Businesses are still searching for more
workers.
Fresh Coat Painters, based in Cincinnati,
plans to nearly double the 300 employees
who paint homes and businesses as it
expands this year across this country. The
franchiser is also launching an apprentice-
ship program to attract workers, in addition
to providing higher pay and benefits.
Tara Riley, president of Fresh Coat, said
that franchise owners are having to actively
search for workers instead of simply post-
ing ads.
“We realized it was a mindset change: You
have to be recruiting, rather than hiring,”
Riley said.
THE DAILY JOURNAL
ing misdemeanor marijuana possession
convictions statewide, though Michigan’s
governor-elect, Democrat Gretchen
Whitmer, has suggested she will consider
doing so.
In Washington, people will be able to
use a simple form on the governor’s web-
site to ask for a pardon of a single convic-
tion dating as far back as 1998.
To be eligible, people must have been
convicted as an adult, and the conviction
must be the only one on their record.
Advocates of marijuana law reform wel-
comed Inslee’s action, but said it could
have gone farther. They noted that people
will only be eligible to have a single con-
viction erased, so those with more than
one will still face traditional clemency
requirements.
Still, Kevin Hassett, chairman of the
White House Council of Economic
Advisers, cautioned on Thursday that the
jobs report for January could be weak if the
shutdown continues. Job totals could be
lowered by hundreds of thousands of gov-
ernment employees being temporarily put
out of work.
“So when we see the January jobs number,
it could be a big negative,” Hassett said.
In 2018, employers added 2.6 million
jobs, or an average of nearly 220,000 a
month, according to the Labor Department.
At some point, even if the economy
remains healthy, monthly job gains will
likely downshift to a more gradual pace.
This is because there is a dwindling pool of
unemployed people. There were 6.3 million
people looking for a job in December, down
from 6.5 million a year ago.
“People should not get used to numbers
like the one we saw this month,” said
Martha Gimbel, director of economic
research at the jobs site Indeed.
“Eventually, job growth is going to start
slowing down. When that happens, we
shouldn’t panic.”

Sell shoots, scores By Nathan Mollat

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Aragon athletic director Steve Sell said during the Dons’

girls’ water polo Central Coast Section Division II first-round
match against No. 2 seed Sobrato, Michael Flynn — Aragon
girls’ soccer coach and father of water polo goaltender Hannah
Flynn — was walking past the Sobrato bench. Written on the
coach’s white board was a large number “12.”
That would be the number worn by Aragon’s Maria Sell, a
four-year varsity player who was the Dons’ go-to player this
season. There was a real simple formula to stopping the Dons
this season: stop Sell, win the match.
Easier said than done. Sell scored six goals to lead the sev-
enth-seeded Dons to a 10-9 upset of the Bulldogs before falling
to No. 3 Saratoga 5-4 in the semifinals, a game during which
Sell scored all four goals.
“There were times we’d play teams and they knew Maria was
the one (to stop),” said Aragon assistant coach Lauren Padilla.
“And most times she still managed to dominate.”
Despite being the focus on every defense she faced, Sell still
managed to put the Dons on her shoulders. She finished with a
PAL-leading 112 goals this season, which was second-most in
CCS, according to the teams that report stats to

Texans and Colts are surprise playoff teams

By Kristie Rieken
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
HOUSTON — Saturday’s wild-card game
between the Houston Texans and Indianapolis
Colts is a matchup that seemed improbable
early this season after Houston dropped its
first three games and the Colts limped to a 1-
5 start.
Instead of letting their tough starts lead to
disappointing years, these teams which both
finished 4-12 last season turned things
around to lead the AFC South and charge into
the postseason.
Houston’s rebound began at the expense of
the Colts (10-6) and it was thanks in part to a
controversial call by Indianapolis coach
Frank Reich in overtime. The game was tied
34-34 when, instead of punting on fourth-
and-4 from his 43-yard line and likely set-
tling for a tie, Reich called for a short pass
from Andrew Luck to Chester Rogers. Luck’s
pass fell incomplete, Houston got a 24-yard
completion on the next play, and Ka’imi
Fairbairn made a 37-yard field goal as time
expired to give the Texans (11-5) a 37-34 vic-
tory.
“We knew that to be able to come out on the
winning end of that game was a big thing for
us, but that’s a long time ago,” Houston
coach Bill O’Brien said. “The teams have
evolved over time, so it’s a new ballgame
now.”
The win was the first of
nine straight for Houston.
The Texans didn’t lose
again until a visit from
the Colts on Dec. 9, a 24-
21 Indy victory. Houston
then won two of its last
three games, capped by a
20-3 victory over the
Andrew Luck Jaguars on Sunday to
clinch the division — and
become the sixth team since 1980 and first
since 1998 to make the playoffs after a 0-3
start.
The Colts’ loss to Houston in Week 4 was
the second of four straight that dropped them
to 1-5. Indianapolis then won its next five
and nine of its last 10 to make its first play-
off appearance since a 2014 AFC champi-
onship game loss at New England. Yes, the
“Deflategate” game.
The Colts are the third team in NFL history
to reach the postseason after losing five of
the first six games.
These teams have more in common than
their difficult starts. They’re both led by a
player making a comeback after an injury.
Luck returned after missing the 2017 sea-
son with a shoulder injury to throw for 4,593
yards and rank second in the NFL with 39
touchdown passes. His best games this sea-
son have come against Houston, piling up
863 yards passing with six touchdowns.
Trying to slow him down on Saturday will
be Houston’s comeback star J.J. Watt, who
played all 16 games after starting just eight
games combined in the previous two years
because of back surgeries and a broken leg.
Watt led the AFC with 16 sacks, had 25 quar-
terback hits, 18 tackles for losses and forced
a career-high seven fumbles, which tied for
most in the NFL.
Watt said Luck has been getting rid of the
ball quicker this season, which makes his job
as a pass rusher much more difficult.
“You try and do different things, but at the
end of the day, you try and get there, and if
you can get your hands up, you get your hands
up,” he said. “You just try and get there. You
can’t really let it affect you, and you hope
maybe he holds it for an extra second.”
DESHAUN’S DEBUT
Houston quarterback Deshaun Watson will
make his playoff debut in his second year in
the NFL. Don’t expect the 12th overall pick
in the 2017 draft to be daunted by the chal-
lenge after he played plenty of huge games at
Clemson, highlighted by leading his team to
the national title game twice. The Tigers lost
to Alabama when Watson was a sophomore
before he helped Clemson beat Alabama 35-
31 for the 2016 national championship.
“It’s just another opportunity for myself
and this whole team to be able to show what
we’ve got and put in the work,” Watson said.
“I’ve played in a lot of big
games before in college
and stuff, but you can’t
really pit college playoffs
with the NFL. This is the
hardest business, top-
notch. It’s a whole new
season, a whole new
speed of game. So it’s
DeShaun going to be new for me
Watson (and) it’s going to be a lot
of fun.”
TURNAROUND TIME
Indy didn’t just rebound from a 1-5 start to
make the playoffs. It rewrote the book.
While the oft-criticized offensive line
allowed a league-low 18 sacks after giving
up a league-high 56 in 2017, the biggest
change came on defense, where the Colts
were ranked No. 11. They had the league’s
leading tackler, 26 takeaways, allowed only
16.4 points over the final eight games, and
were one of three teams that didn’t allow a
100-yard rusher all season.
The Colts know it will take more of the
same to advance.
“The last time we did a good job, that was
great for us, but this is a new challenge this
week,” Reich said when asked about defend-
ing Pro Bowl receiver DeAndre Hopkins.
“I’m sure they are going to try to get him
going.”

Dallas looking to break playoff drought

By Schuyler Dixon
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ARLINGTON, Texas — Russell Wilson won a wild-card
game with Seattle as a rookie, a Super Bowl in his second
season and another NFC championship the third time
around.
The best Dak Prescott can hope for with the Dallas
Cowboys is to join Wilson on that list of title winners in
his third year, a quest that will start with the first playoff
meeting of quarterbacks with quite a bit in common.
Both were mid-round draft picks who became instant NFL
success stories. The difference is that Prescott lost his first
playoff game after guiding the Cowboys to the top seed in
the NFC two years ago, then had to wait two years for his
second chance. It comes in a home wild-card game Saturday
night.
“When you say success of a quarterback or a quarterback’s
success depending on what they do in the playoffs, I think
that’s where the checks are written and they make their
money,” Prescott said. “Our job is to win no matter what
happens, no matter how you played individually. At the end
of the day, it’s to get the job done.”
When Wilson finally missed the playoffs in his sixth sea-
Ask a Professional
son last year, the Seahawks were elimi-
nated on the final weekend — after they
bounced Prescott and the Cowboys from
contention with a road win in Week 16.
Seattle was 0-2 this year when the sea-
son turned on a 24-13 win over the visit-
ing Cowboys (10-6), with the Seahawks
following a familiar formula from their
Super Bowl days: an efficient Wilson,
Dak Prescott strong running game and playmaking
defense.
The Seahawks (10-6) kept it up despite overhauling the
roster, mostly notably dismantling key pieces of the
“Legion of Boom” defense. An important exception has
been linebacker Bobby Wagner, who was just selected an
All-Pro for the fourth time in five seasons.
“The great thing about this team is the fact that every-
body was telling us we couldn’t,” Wilson said. “It shows the
heart of this team and it shows the mindset of this team to
be able to think the way that you want to think and the
places that you want to go. To think big, to believe big.”
Wilson was a third-round pick out of Wisconsin in 2012
and won the job in his first training camp. Prescott was
drafted in the fourth round out of Mississippi State four
years later and became the starter after preseason injuries to
Tony Romo and backup Kellen Moore.
In his first three years, Wilson won more games than any
other NFL quarterback with 36. Prescott just finished tied
for fifth on that list with 32. Two quarterbacks have an NFL-
leading 24 games with at least a 100 passer rating in their
Now it’s time for their third — and most meaningful —
meeting, with Prescott looking to beat Wilson for the first
time.
“Dak had a phenomenal year to get started and get rolling
and has just been solid since,” Seahawks coach Pete Carroll
said. “I think it’s the dynamics of the mobility that when you
add that together, and of course they can both throw the ball
way down the field. You’ve got the same kind of problems.”
RUN FIRST
Both teams figure to try to control the pace with their run-
ning games. Ezekiel Elliott just won the NFL rushing title for
the second time in his three seasons, and Chris Carson heads a
group of Seattle backs that led the NFL in rushing. The
Cowboys were 10th, fueled by Elliott, and have had a top-10
defense most of the season led by pass rusher DeMarcus
Lawrence and young playmaking linebackers Jaylon Smith
and Leighton Vander Esch. Dallas was fifth against the run.
“We’re feeling great,” Elliott said. “I believe we have the
best defense in football and a pretty good offense, a lot of
weapons. I think we have the right recipe to make some
noise.”
WILD-CARD STREAK
Seattle has won six straight wild-card games, a streak that
started when Romo, a first-year starter and still the holder,
flubbed the snap on a potential go-ahead field goal in the
final two minutes of the Seahawks’ 21-20 home win during
the 2006 season. Oddly enough during this streak, Seattle

NDSU goes for 7th FCS title in E. Washington’s return
By Stephen Hawkins
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
FRISCO, Texas — Before North Dakota
State made Fargo to Frisco an annual trip,
Eastern Washington won the first FCS
championship game played in North Texas.
That was eight years ago.
The Big Sky Conference champion Eagles
(12-2) are finally back in the title game and
aren’t surprised that on Saturday they will
have to face North Dakota State (15-0),
which is going for its record seventh FCS
championship since then.
“In the offseason thinking about getting
to this point, you kind of just automatically
picture it being NDSU just because it’s so
normal for them to be here, ” Eastern
Washington linebacker Ketner Kupp said.
Second-year Eastern Washington coach
Aaron Best knows what his team is up
against.
“This is not a business trip. This is not a
vacation. This is a game against North

and we’re not OK to be here,” said Best, the

VANCOUVER, Oliver Wahlstrom and

Primeau made 35 saves and the United States
advanced to the world junior hockey final with
a 2-1 victory over Russia on Friday.
Seeking its fifth title and first since 2017,
the United States will face the Finland-
Switzerland winner in the championship
game Saturday night.
“I was just trying to stay calm and com-
posed,” said Primeau, a freshman at
Northeastern. “I knew they were going to try
and get some shots off at the end. I was just
trying to stay big, then you can celebrate after
the buzzer has gone.”
Wahlstrom opened the scoring with 5:31
left in the first period. Forward Logan
Cockerill powered down the ice, faked a shot
and sliced the puck to Wahlstrom. The U.S.

North Dakota State won five titles in a
row after the Eagles won their only champi-
onship 20-19 over Delaware, overcoming a
19-0 deficit after halftime in the first FCS
game played in the pro soccer stadium about
a half-hour north of downtown Dallas.
The Missouri Valley Conference champi-
on Bison only missed a January trip to
Frisco two years ago, but returned last sea-
son and matched the six FCS (formerly
Division I-AA) titles won by Georgia
Southern before it moved to the FBS level.
Like five years ago in Craig Bohl’s final
game before he became Wyoming’s coach,
the Bison will try to win a championship in
Chris Klieman’s finale. Klieman (68-6),
who will be Kansas State’s new coach, is
going for his fourth FCS title as a head
coach to match the record four won by Jim
Tressel at Youngstown State before he later
won a national title at Ohio State.
“It doesn’t feel any different right now to

boards and getting a shot up and over Primeau.
Russia had a goal waved on in the first peri-

kicked in the puck.
“We got a lucky bounce and they decided to
call it off,” Primeau said. “It was definitely a
big one there and we got back to work.”
Another close call came on a Russian power
play early in the third period. Klim Kostin’s
shot left the puck rolling along the goal line
before U.S. defenseman Phil Kemp swatted it
out of the way.

seniors.”
STICKING OUT
FCS All-America quarterback Easton Stick
is 48-3 as the NDSU starter, matching Brock
Jensen for the most wins in school history.
Stick was the starter for the 2017 title team
and will try to join Jensen and Carson Wentz,
the NDSU starter before Stick, with multiple
championships. Stick has set NDSU career
records with 10,897 total yards, 86 touch-
downs passing and 124 total TDs. He needs
104 yards passing to break Jenson’s career
record of 8,598 set from 2010-13.
“I talked to Carson a little bit earlier today,”
Stick said Friday. “He’s been obviously a real-
ly good friend to me since I stepped on campus
here and has played a big role in our program’s
success and my success. He’s continued to be a

On the way to its 2010 championship,
Eastern Washington had an overtime victo-

the Rams off.
It wasn’t easy. When Junior Cotton
knocked down a 3-pointer to open the
fourth quarter, it gave the Knights their
largest lead of the game, 50-32.
Then the Rams went on the attack. First,
they attacked the rim which led to a steady
path to the free-throw line, going 11 for 15
over the final eight minutes. It also resulted
in a pair of layups and a baseline jumper
from Michael Jaciw as Westmoor went on a
11-2 run, cutting its deficit to 52-43 with
3:55 left to play.
A drive and layup from Hillsdale’s Seth
Godtfredsen stalled the Rams as the teams
then traded baskets and free throws over the
final two minutes of the game.
Westmoor’s John Lloyd Aguas had a big
game, scoring a game-high 26 points, hit-
ting four 3s and draining 9 of 10 from the
line. He scored 14 in the fourth
“We have a core group of seniors … and
[Aguas] is one of them,” Yaptinchay said.
“He’ll be huge for us.”
Nate Cote added 18 points for the Rams.
Hillsdale was led by Cotton’s 17 points,
who was the only Knight to score in double
figures. But the Knights made up for it by
getting eight players in scoring column.
While it was Westmoor that closed the
game in spectacular fashion, it was
Hillsdale that was running things in the
opening eight minutes. When Ian
Nepomuceno scored his second layup in the
opening minute of the game, it jumpstarted
a quick 6-0 run, as Matt Chan followed with
a put-back and a fastbreak layup to open up
an 8-2 lead.
SPORTS
After an Aguas 3 got the Rams to 8-5,
Chan answered with a 3 of his own and a
Calvin Mader-Clark bucket on an inbound
play pushed the Hillsdale lead to 13-8.
Robert Vaihola, a sophomore transfer from
St. Ignatius who was appearing in just his
second game for the Knights, closed the
period by hitting 1 of 2 free throws and then
banked home a 3-pointer to give the
Knights a 17-8 lead after the opening quar-
ter.
Westmoor gave an indication of things to
come as the Rams came out firing in the sec-
ond quarter, opening the period on a 13-4
run. When Aguas drained a 3 from the top of
the key, the game was tied at 21 with 4:49
left in the first half.
Hillsdale weathered the storm, however,
as Cotton took over in the final few minutes
for the Knights. He scored back-to-back
buckets by attacking the rim, Loren
Mitchell canned a 3-pointer from the left
corner and Cotton hit 1 of 2 free throws to
give Hillsdale a 29-27 lead at the break.
The Knights capitalized on that momen-
tum in the third quarter, scoring the first two
baskets on a Mader-Clark mid-range jumper
and Godtfresen converting a fastbreak layup
to push their lead to 33-27. The teams
exchanged points but when Nicky
Robinson scored on a put-back for the
Hillsdale, it ignited a 12-1 run to end the
period — punctuated by a Cotton 3-pointer
that rattled home with 25 seconds to play as
Hillsdale would lead 47-32 at the end of
three.
“We still have a lot to grow,” Ramirez
said. “I don’t think we put a whole game
together (yet this season).”
That has been Westmoor’s problem as
well.
“We just have to learn how to be consis-
tent,” Yaptinchay said. “We just have to
play four quarters.”

Dons to a third-place finish in the PAL Bay
Division standings and a second straight
semifinal appearance in the CCS playoffs and
she caps her senior season as the Daily
Journal’s Girls’ Water Polo Athlete of the Year.
Sell had a fairly good idea she was going to
have to step up her game on both ends of the
pool if the Dons were to be successful this sea-
son. Having lost a pair of key starters to grad-
uation, and a third to a transfer, there was not
a lot of experience for the 2018 season. Her
concerns were realized when the Dons opened
the season with a 4-2 loss to St. Ignatius.
The Daily Journal covered that season open-
er and the headline in the paper the next day
was, “Dons have work to do.”
Sell hung that on her bedroom wall.
“That was absolutely true,” Sell said. “There
were only four returning varsity players. I had
low expectations.”
A natural shooter
While the team surrounding her finally
gelled and started to play better, it was Sell
who was leading the way. She had already
established herself as one not afraid to shoot
from anywhere in the pool over the previous
three seasons and polo novices had to wonder
what coach would give a player the green light
to shoot any time, anywhere.
But that was Sell’s game. An athlete in every
sense of the word who played several sports
growing up — “When I was younger, I played
softball and football, so I could always
throw,” Sell said — she had developed a knack
for being a dangerous threat to shoot — and
score — any time she had the ball, no matter
where she was playing. She was so dominant
on the ball, that many of her teammates would
simply defer to Sell to be the team’s goal scor-
er, despite the fact she was more than willing
to share the wealth.
But when it came time for the Dons to step
it up, everyone knew who was getting the
ball.
“It was hard for me to adjust to that and have
to take more control of the game,” Sell said.
“There were a few games where I didn’t want to
be the ball hog. … But if we were down, I’d
say, ‘It’s not about hurting feelings and
(instead) hoping you’re doing it for the good
of the team.’ Being a good teammate meant
taking control of the game in the hopes of
having a better outcome.
THE DAILY JOURNAL
Solar owner Jeff Carpoff. It was Carpoff who
pushed to get Chastain a chance in good equip-
ment, and Chastain won his first career
Xfinity race in September at Las Vegas in a
Ganassi car.
Carpoff pledged enough money to get
Chastain a fulltime ride that was announced in
November. The FBI raid in California came
last month and the agency has not commented
on the reasons.
Ganassi said its NASCAR Cup Series teams
of Kyle Larson and Kurt Busch won’t be
impacted. DC Solar also sponsored select
races on the Cup side.
“Sometimes, Maria had to take over.”
Groomed to score
Sell wasn’t always such a willing shooter.
Padilla said when she was coaching a 12-year-
old Sell on a U16 club team in the Junior
Olympics, one of their matches went to a
shootout.
“She was too scared to shoot,” Padilla said.
There was another shootout later in the tour-
nament and Sell was, again, in line to take one
of the shots. Which she did — and made.
“Her realizing that she could do it, it was
kind of like flipping a switch,” Padilla con-
tinued. “She knew she couldn’t rely on anyone
else to score or play defense this year, she did
it.”
Sell did need a reminder during the season,
however. Randy Kalbus, her first coach at
Burlingame Aquatic Club and longtime water
polo fixture on the Peninsula, was serving as
a referee during the Aragon-Burlingame
match. After the Dons rallied for a 12-9 win,
one in which Sell scored nine times, Kalbus
scolded Sell.
“He lectured Maria and told her she doesn’t
shoot enough,” Steve Sell said.
Just as good defensively
It was just a reminder that the team’s success
was predicated on Sell’s success and that was
the mantra on both ends of the pool. As good
a scorer Sell is, she is equally adept on
defense. She led the team in steals with 68 and
it was not uncommon to see Sell purposely
trail the play before picking the pocket of the
unsuspecting opponent.
But Sell was about more than just thievery.
She would do what was necessary to not only
stop the opposition, but also to be the first
option offensively. Whether it was on a fast
break or she brought the ball up herself, she
had to be mentally prepared to go from defense
to offense in the blink of an eye.
“I would mostly play perimeter defense, but
I was always confident to drop back and help
the ‘D’ throughout the season,” Sell said.
When she did drop deeper into the defensive
end, it did stagnate the Dons’ offense a bit,
which was the main issue with that season-
opening loss to S.I. After getting the ball
back on a Flynn block or a turnover, it took so
long for the Dons to get into their offense,
they were always racing the shot clock. As the
season went along, Sell would bring the ball
up and make the decision to shoot or pass.
You can probably guess which option she
chose more often than not.
“My dad always said, ‘Shooters shoot,’”
Sell said.

CHAMPIONSHIP
Continued from page 13
Alabama, but challenging this Tide team to run the ball is
probably the way to go.
“They’re kind of greedy,” Cubelic said of Alabama’s
offense, led by quarterback Tua Tagovailoa. “They know
they’re really good throwing the ball. They know they have
an elite quarterback and elite wide receivers. Why not go out
there and pitch it around?”
Tagovailoa, the Heisman runner-up, has a 205.19 passer
efficiency rating, which would break Baker Mayfield’s sin-
gle-season record from last year.
Senior Albert Huggins played well filling in for Lawrence
against Notre Dame, but the junior is more likely to be
missed this week.
“He’s probably one of the best linemen in college foot-
ball, no doubt, in terms of his production and his perform-
ance,” Saban said. “He’s played really well against us in the
past.”
Q RATING
If there was a defensive player with a case to the win the
Heisman Trophy this season, Alabama’s Quinnen Williams
was the guy. He has hardly been slowed down and it’s doubt-
ful Clemson center Justin Falcinelli, an All-ACC player,
and guards John Simpson, Gage Cervenka and Sean Pollard
will be a physical match for the future top-five NFL draft
pick.
Williams, an All-American and Outland Trophy winner,
plays differently than the recent dominant Tide nose guards
such as Terrence Cody and Daron Payne. Williams often
lines up in one gap, and then shoots into another gap or
works his way from one shoulder of a blocker to the other.
Clemson uses a lot of zone- and gap-blocking schemes,
where its linemen are assigned to block a particular space
rather than a man.
“The scheme is not very friendly to handle not only a guy
as talented as Quinnen Williams, but the way he plays,”
Cubelic said.
The 295-pound Williams had 18 tackles for loss, includ-

ing eight sacks.
FLUSTERING THE FRESHMAN
Clemson freshman quarterback Trevor Lawrence has all
the physical gifts. From that standpoint, he is ready for
Alabama. The challenge against the Tide for Lawrence will
be as much mental as physical.
Alabama’s overwhelming talent sometimes overshadows
just how well-coached the players are. The Tide doesn’t
make many mistakes and Saban’s defenses throw a lot at
quarterbacks.
“The windows are going to close faster,” Cubelic said.
“The pressure is going to be applied more quickly. The deci-
sions are going to have to be made faster.”
Lawrence has completed 65.5 percent of his passes, with
27 touchdown passes and only four interceptions.
An underrated part of Lawrence’s game is his mobility, but
he hasn’t used it much until late in the season. He has 86
yards on 10 carries in the last three regular-season games.
Swinney said he’d like to see Lawrence take off more.
“Sometimes people will drop and play coverage and
receivers will have to work and work and work to try to get
open and he’s confident he can rip it there,” Swinney said.
Because Alabama is so good up front with Williams,
Raekwon Davis and Isaiah Buggs (team-high 9.5 sacks), it
is likely Lawrence will see a lot of seven- and eight-man
coverage and get some opportunities to run.
“If Alabama is going to give you anything, you damn well
better take it,” Cubelic said.
Alabama’s excellent pass rush has helped bring along a
secondary that relies on talented but inexperienced corners
such as freshman Patrick Surtain.
“I don’t know how good the Alabama secondary is,”
Cubelic said. “And I don’t think anybody else really
knows.”
Clemson has a versatile group of receivers with Tee
Higgins (11 touchdowns) and Justyn Ross (eight touch-
downs) both checking in at 6-foot-4, Amari Rogers (four
touchdowns), who is built like a running back, and senior
Hunter Renfrow, who has scored four touchdowns in two
previous championship games against Alabama.

backyard fighting with each other, playing football grow-
ing up and we envisioned each other competing at the high-
est level, competing against the best players,” Jason said.
“And for both of us to be recognized as one of those guys is
pretty special.”
Joining Nelson and Leonard as rookies on the team were
Seahawks punter Michael Dickson and Chargers safety
Derwin James.
“These are the kind of guys who have the DNA, the make-
up of everything that we are looking for,” Colts coach
Frank Reich said of Nelson and Leonard. “All the intangi-
bles, all the character qualities, everything about them. It’s
a really hard filter to get through to get marked that way and
both Quenton and Darius had that on their card. So that says
something about their maturity and how fast we think they
will develop.”
And already have developed.
Chicago also had four All-Pros: edge rusher Khalil Mack,
cornerback Kyle Fuller, safety Eddie Jackson and punt
returner Tarik Cohen.
Two players made All-Pro for the fifth time: Houston edge
rusher J.J. Watt and Carolina linebacker Luke Kuechly.
“It means a lot to get back to the top level of the game,”
said Watt, who missed most of the 2016 and ‘17 seasons
with major injuries. “Obviously, it’s an extreme honor to be
a first-team All-Pro, especially after what I’ve been through
the last two years and hearing the things that people were
saying and questioning myself at times.
“To be able to get back to the top level of the game and
know that I still have things to improve on and things that
I want to get even better at, it’s exciting.”
The All-Pro team was split: 14 AFC and 14 NFC members.
There were 16 newcomers: Mahomes; Schwartz; Fuller;
Jackson; Cohen; Saints receiver Michael Thomas; Packers
left tackle David Bakhtiari; Eagles interior defensive line-
man Fletcher Cox; Patriots cornerback Stephon Gilmore;
Chargers defensive back Desmond King and special teamer
Adrian Phillips; Jets kick returner Andre Roberts; and the
four rookies.
Players with previous All-Pro honors who made the 2018
team included Donald and Seahawks linebacker Bobby
Wagner, each for the fourth time; Mack, Dallas right guard
Zack Martin and Ravens kicker Justin Tucker, each for the
third time; Hill; Rams running back Todd Gurley; and
Texans receiver DeAndre Hopkins.
“I think I really took a lot of pride in leadership,” said
Wagner, who drew 49 votes. “I knew that was going to be
big if we were going to be successful. I knew I was going to
have to up my role in that, up my mindfulness in that. I was
really conscious of that and just making sure I was, when it
came to getting back to the defense I looked at it from a dif-
ferent lens.”
Hopkins got the most votes on offense with 46.
“This is validation,” Hopkins said. “I feel like these peo-
ple are the people who actually know football, who study
football, who have been around football for years. So to be
on this list and to be first team is a great feeling. But it
makes me want to work harder and continue to be on that
list.”

‘Escape Room’ not half bad
By Lindsey Bahr
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
In retrospect, it’s actually
kind of surprising that there
hasn’t been an escape room-
themed horror movie until
now. The popular interactive
mystery games are kind of
mini films. There’s a built-in
set, stakes, opportunities for
conflict and teamwork and a
logical start and finish. It’s
certainly a more obvious fit
for a movie than a board
game or theme park ride.
So, from the imaginations of
“Fast & Furious” producer
Neal H. Moritz and
“Insidious: The Last Key”
director Adam Robitel comes
“Escape Room,” where the
characters are as random as
an audience-chosen improv
group (Investment banker!
Soldier! Miner! Smart teen!
Grocer!), the rooms look like
discarded Nine Inch Nails
music video sets (not exactly
a criticism), the stakes are
$10,000 or death, which seem
far too low and too high, and
everyone agrees that Petula

What to watch for at Sunday’s Golden Globes
By Jake Coyle
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Dramatic period pieces
will vie for the top comedy-musical awards
and song-stuffed movies are poised to dom-
inate the dramatic categories. Welcome to
the 76th annual Golden Globes.
Category confusion often reigns at the
Globes. Remember when laughers like “The
Martian” and “Get Out” competed as come-
dies? But the Globes, reliably the frothiest,
quirkiest and most entertaining stop in the
awards-season march to the Academy Awards,
might feel especially upside down this year.
The night, to be broadcast live Sunday on
NBC, may ultimately belong to Bradley
Cooper’s “A Star Is Born” revival. It’s the
favorite for best picture (drama), best
actress (Lady Gaga), best song (“Shallow”)
and best actor (Bradley Cooper). The film’s
stiffest competition may come from anoth-
er music movie: the Freddie Mercury biopic
“Bohemian Rhapsody,” whose star, Rami
Malek, some believe could pull off the act-
ing upset over Cooper.
Despite their copious tuneage, the cam-
paigns of both “A Star Is Born” and
“Bohemian Rhapsody” elected for the more
serious dramatic category. For “A Star Is
Born,” it’s a kind of power move to firmly
establish itself as the Oscar front runner
many believe it is.
Oscar voting, as it turns out this year,
commences Monday, the morning after the
Golden Globes. If “A Star Is Born” runs
away with the Globes, it will enter the nom-
inations period of the Academy Awards as
the favorite by a wide margin.
With “A Star Is Born” (along with “Black
Panther,” “If Beale Street Could Talk” and
“BlacKkKlansman”) up for best picture as a
drama, that’s left a few humor-tinged

movies many would peg as dramas — “The
Favourite,” “Green Book” and “Vice” — to
give the comedy/musical side of the Globes
a bit more heft than usual.
Of those, “Vice” comes in with the most
nominations of any film (six), but the
chances of “The Favourite” are probably the
best on Sunday. “The Favourite,” Yorgos
Lanthimos’ triangular power struggle in
Queen Anne’s court, is the most decorated
film of the bunch in an awards season that,
despite any other fluctuations, has been
rigid in its acclaim for the powerhouse trio
of Olivia Colman, Rachel Weisz and Emma
Stone.
REUTERS FILE PHOTO
Emily Blunt, nominated twice this year
by the Hollywood Foreign Press
Association (best actress for “Mary
Poppins Returns” and best supporting
actress for “A Quiet Place”) could give
Colman — named the lead of “The
Favourite” — a run for her money. But
Colman’s tragicomic performance as Queen
Anne has made her the definite front-runner
and potentially Lady Gaga’s stiffest compe-
tition come the Oscars when the two best-
actress contenders will presumably go head
to head.
The awards season of “Green Book” has
been marred by backlash, so Peter Farrelly’s
1960s road trip tale probably has the most
to gain from a strong showing at the
THE DAILY JOURNAL
Globes. The film’s best actor (comedy) con-
tender, Viggo Mortensen, may not be able
to challenge Christian Bale’s Dick Cheney,
but the HFPA — which overlooked
Mahershala Ali for “Moonlight” — may
right that wrong with an award for his sup-
porting performance in “Green Book.”
But if the lines of comedy, musical and
drama are particularly blurred at this year’s
Globes, they are even more so between film
and television.
There are as many movie stars nominated
in the TV categories as there are in the film
ones. Among them: Julia Roberts
(“Homecoming”), Jim Carrey (“Kidding”),
Amy Adams (up for both “Vice” and “Sharp
Objects”) Michael Douglas (“The
Kominsky Method”), Benedict
Cumberbatch (“Patrick Melrose”),
Penelope Cruz (“The Assassination of
Gianni Versace: American Crime Story”),
Patricia Arquette (“Escape at Dannemora”),
Hugh Grant (“A Very English Scandal”) and
Laura Dern (“The Tale”).
Their shows and others (“The Marvelous
Mrs. Maisel, ” “Barry, ” “Bodyguard, ”
“Killing Eve”) will be in the mix, and the
victors may well muddy another awards
show boundary: that between host and win-
ner. Sandra Oh, the star of “Killing Eve,” is
favored to win best actress in a drama series,
potentially giving her a welcome respite
from hosting duties alongside Andy
Samberg.
Oh and Samberg will have the challenge
of marshalling a broadcast that last year fell
11 percent in viewership for NBC. That cer-
emony, when women attendees wore black,
was atypically solemn for the Globes, and
rife with protest, coming as the first major
awards show of the post-Harvey Weinstein
#MeToo era.
But for a Globes full of head-scratchers,
Samberg and Oh — each hailing from differ-
ent realms of comedy and drama — are a fit-
tingly, charmingly incongruous pair.

Kevin Hart says he’s considering Oscar hosting gig again
By David Bauder
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Prodded by Ellen
DeGeneres, comic Kevin Hart says he’ll
reconsider his decision to step down as host
of the Academy Awards.
Hart had backed away two days after being
named host last month when some homo-
phobic tweets he had made a decade ago resur-
faced. But DeGeneres urged him to host the
show during an interview that aired Friday on
her talk show.
The motion picture Academy has not named
a replacement host for its Feb. 24 awards
show.
“You have grown,” DeGeneres told him.
“You have apologized. You’re apologizing
again right now. You’ve done it. Don’t let
these people win. Host the Oscars.”
She applied subtle pressure by saying after

As if the film is concerned that the audi-
ence will lose interest immediately, “Escape
Room” starts at the end, as a lone man, Ben
(Logan Miller), desperately tries to figure
out the clues in a room that is quickly clos-
ing in on itself, “Star Wars” trash-com-
pactor-style. It’s certainly a jolt of energy
up front, but right as things are looking
really bleak for Ben, it cuts to “three days
earlier.” It’s cheap and a little insulting to
have to reassure the audience that there is

one commercial break,
“We’re back with this
year’s Oscars host, Kevin
Hart.”
Hart told her that “you
have put a lot of things
on my mind” and that he
would think about their
conversation.
Kevin Hart The LGBTQ watchdog
organization GLAAD on
Friday reiterated its position that Hart not
step down as host but instead use the platform
to “send an unequivocal message of accept-
ance to LGBTQ youth.”
If there’s a campaign to get him back, it
couldn’t have started more slickly: on the
hugely successful talk show run by one of
Hollywood’s most prominent gay celebri-
ties, who hosted the Oscars herself in 2007.
DeGeneres said she called the Academy this
as long as they get through all the boring
introductory stuff.  At least it doesn’t resort
to the old record-scratch, freeze-frame,
“you’re probably wondering how I got here”
standby.
The thing is, “Escape Room” isn’t actual-
ly all that bad, just kind of silly, but it takes
a moment to readjust your expectations after
that condescending beginning, and a very
phoned-in introduction to the unlucky six

rious box and decide, what the heck, let’s

He has also made anti-gay comments in his
standup in the past.
Hart told her that when his old messages
resurfaced, “what was once the brightest light
ever just got real dark.” He initially said he
wouldn’t apologize because he had addressed
the issue several times. But given an ultima-

Curiously no one seems all that concerned
about the odd premise that this team activi-
ty could have a single winner at all, or per-
haps they think they’ll all win $10,000. I
guess it becomes clearer when people start
dying in the rooms.
And, boy, are they put through the
wringer. The have to brave extreme heat,
extreme cold, poison, drugs, rising ten-

out how to get out of each puzzle room, a
few of which are pretty interesting. It’s like
a “Final Destination” spinoff where each
character’s past trauma haunts them.
Mercifully, all the carnage is kept to tolera-

“That’s an attempt to end me,” he said.
“That’s not an attack to just stop the Oscars
... Somebody has to take a stand against the
... trolls.”
DeGeneres received some resistance on
social media, with some commenters saying
that Hart’s homophobic jokes were a legiti-
mate issue for discussion, and it wasn’t a case
of people maliciously trying to hurt him.
In a column posted Friday in the trade pub-
lication Variety, Caroline Framke argued that
Hart hadn’t proven that he’d learned much.
“If he gets the job back, it won’t be because
he’s convinced his detractors that he actually
cares about gay people,” Framke wrote. “It’ll
be because he spun a story about vicious
trolls going after him for no good reason. It
might be a compelling enough angle to con-
vince DeGeneres and her audience, but even if
it manages to sway the Academy, it still
won’t actually be true.”
watching all the characters find keys and
have their own revelations, so by the time
you get to the fifth room, it’s understand-
able if interest is starting to wane a bit even
with the addition of a link between the six
people.
The third act really kind of blows it
though and the movie essentially ends with
a shrug and the possibility for a sequel. You
could do worse in January. And anyone
already interested in the idea of an escape
room that tries to kill you probably isn’t
expecting all that much out of this anyway.
“Escape Room,” a Sony Pictures release,
is rated PG-13 by the Motion Picture
Association of America for “terror/perilous
action, violence, some suggestive material
and language.” Running time: 100 minutes.
Two stars out of four.

and it will be devoted to what’s known
as installation art.
“Installation art encompasses paint-
ing, sculpture, photography and video.
It’s an artwork that’s an environment.
You’re able to walk through it and
experience something,” said Lance
Fung, a curator who conceived and
organized the project. “This is a unique
hybrid between public art and installa-
tion art and I honestly don’t know of an
exhibition space quite like this.”
While the project debuts this week-
end, it will see an official ribbon-cut-
ting ceremony Feb. 2. The first artist
to be featured is Redwood City resident
Erin Ashford, whose piece “We Make a
Home” will be on view throughout
January.
For the piece, Ashford sat down with
about 100 locals, made a cast of their
hand and then painted the cast with
colors selected by the owner of the
hand to match their skin tone. The
casts were then placed over a small
structure, like roof tiles, that’s been
erected in one of the Courthouse Square
kiosks.
“The piece is about all of the rela-
tionships that I’ve developed in the
last five years and this is a new com-

proximity to a major city transit hub,
an analysis of the project’s impact on
downtown traffic patterns and parking
was included in a mitigated negative
declaration issued by city planner
Roscoe Mata and Chief of Planning
Ron Munekawa in November.
The report found the project resulted
in no significant impacts to the exist-

analysis conducted by Hexagon
Transportation Consultants projected
the project would generate 87 trips
between 7 a.m. and 9 a.m. and 84 peak-
hour trips between 4 p.m. and 6 p.m.
Because of the site’s location down-
town, the project will have a 25 per-
cent trip reduction goal and a trans-
portation demand management, or
TDM, program.
Included among the measures in the
TDM plan are building designs aimed
at encouraging walking and use of pub-
lic transit, providing showers and
changing rooms to facilitate bicycling
and walking to work, car sharing pro-
grams and reimbursement of travel

tate, or both, of Frank Hamby,

Petition for Probate has been filed by

Petition for Probate requests that Brett
Hamby be appointed as personal repre-
sentative to administer the estate of the
decedent.
The petition requests authority to admin-
ister the estate under the Independent
Administration of Estates Act. (This au-
thority will allow the personal representa-
tive to take many actions without obtain-
203 public notices
ing court approval. Before taking certain
very important actions, however, the per-
sonal representative will be required to
give notice to interested persons unless
they have waived notice or consented to
the proposed action.) The independent

jection to the petition and shows good
cause why the court should not grant au-
thority.

California, County of San Mateo, 400

tion, you should appear at the hearing

objections with the court before the hear-
ing. Your appearance may be in person
or by your attorney.

itor of the decedent, you must file your
claim with the court and mail a copy to
the personal representative appointed by
the court within the later of either (1) four
months from the date of first issuance of
letters to a general personal representa-
tive, as defined in section 58(b) of the
California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days
from the date of mailing or personal de-
livery to you of a notice under sectioin
9052 of the California Probate Code.Oth-
er California statutes and legal authority
may affect your rights as a creditor. You
may want to consult with an attorney
knowledgable in California law.
You may examine the file kept by the
court. If you are a person interested in
the estate, you may file with the court a
Request for Special Notice (form DE-
154) of the filing of an inventory and ap-
praisal of estate assets or of any petition
or account as provided in Probate Code
section 1250. A Request for Special No-
tice form is available from the court clerk.

LANES
Continued from page 1
and has sent a memo to the City/County
Association of Governments to follow suit.
Both agencies must agree on the owner and
operator by February or the project will be
delayed and construction costs will inflate.
“I think we can move forward particularly
with this interesting new development
that’s on the table, an opportunity to still
partner with BAIFA but in a different way
where San Mateo County can retain owner-
ship,” said TA Vice Chair Emily Beach, also
a Burlingame councilwoman. “I’m hoping
that will really make a difference.”
Last month, the TA voted to have local
control of the express lane facility with the
Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority
managing it while C/CAG voted for BAIFA
to own and operate the facility — but that
was before BAIFA’s new offer was proposed.
The TA oversees the county’s sales tax
revenue earmarked for transportation, and
C/CAG is a joint powers authority com-
prised of board members representing each
city and the county that works on quality of
life issues such as air quality and transporta-
tion, among others.
The $514 million Managed Lanes propos-
al entails the construction of an additional
lane in each direction on the stretch of
Highway 101 in San Mateo County. The far
LOCAL
left lane in both directions would be con-
verted to an express lane equipped with
signs and real-time surveillance equipment.
Express lanes promise speeds of at least
45 mph on all lanes at all times by allowing
buses, carpools of three people or more and
motorcycles to travel free while charging an
electronic toll for other drivers who choose
to use them. The tolls would fluctuate based
on traffic volumes, but initial estimates
suggest the average price would be $1 per
mile in San Mateo County, which is rela-
tively cheap compared to express lanes
elsewhere.
A big part of why the TA is so interested in
local control of the tolling facility is
because it wants local policymakers to be
able to implement their own equity pro-
grams for low-income drivers. The owner
would also be able to spend revenue —
which is estimated to range between $9.7
million and $20.5 million a year — on
transportation projects of its choosing so
long as those projects are in the corridor.
The ultimate vision is to build continuous
express lanes from Fourth and King streets
in San Francisco to Mountain View and rev-
enue could be used to make that vision a
reality.
“One of our concerns is equity and we
wanted to make those decisions, we didn’t
want them made someplace else. By us
being owners of the Managed Lanes, we’d
retain all funding and we’d be able to make
decisions about equity as well as other deci-
sions on toll policy, toll discounts,
enforcement and an equity program that’s
important to all of us as well as to C/CAG,”
said Don Horsley, TA chair and San Mateo
County supervisor. “We all agree whether
ownership remains in San Mateo County or
is transferred we all have a common inter-
est, and MTC/BAIFA will work with us and
San Francisco County to extent those
Managed Lanes from 380 north into San
Francisco to benefit the entire corridor.”
Local ownership also means San Mateo
County would assume the risk if the express
lanes don’t generate revenue as projected.
“The TA recognizes that the final risk of
potential cost overruns on the construction
of the project or cash flow requirement for
ramping up the operations and the opera-
tions themselves are and will be the primary
responsibility of the TA with C/CAG help-
ing with STIP (State Transportation
Improvement Program) or other funds if it
can,” Horsley said. “The reason for this is
[San Mateo County] cities don’t want to
find themselves assessed for additional
funding. We’re agreeing that we the TA
would not request C/CAG members provide
their own funds to cover the financial risk.”
One of the reasons some C/CAG board
members were interested in having BAIFA
own the facility is they saw that agency as
best equipped to expand the express lanes

into San Francisco. But Beach listed alter-
native opportunities for buildout.
“There are other opportunities and one of
them is (state gas tax increase) SB 1, that
has now been protected. … In future grant
cycles there could be opportunities and
that’s probably one of the best opportuni-
ties because we’re such a high priority corri-
dor,” she said.
She also mentioned federal grants, and
Horsley added that installing express lanes
from Interstate 380 into San Francisco
would not be as expensive as the San Mateo
County project because additional lanes
would not be constructed as part of that
project.
There was also some concern expressed
about potential construction cost overruns,
but most board members were adamant that
such circumstances are unlikely.
“There aren’t as many unforeseen circum-
stances, it’s not as if we’re building a bridge
so I wouldn’t anticipate a 25 percent over-
run,” Horsley said in response to one board
member’s claim that studies show large
infrastructure projects regularly see cost
overruns between 25 percent and 40 per-
cent. “[The project] may well go over, but
it’s not highly likely. It’s essentially just
lanes and I think we have a pretty good his-
tory of managing projects efficiently.”
