City prioritizes affordable housing, parking


San Mateo City Council seeking ideas for downtown redevelopment parcels
By Samantha Weigel
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

San Mateo officials are appealing to the development community in hopes of receiving inspirational ideas for how it might
address vital housing and parking
needs at two prime downtown
parcels long slated for reconstruction.

Councilmembers unanimously
agreed Monday that the city
should keep an open mind on what
the future will hold for two large
lots straddling Fifth Avenue
immediately east of the Caltrain
tracks. City staff will now draft a
broad request for builders to submit design as well as financing
options for the properties so

amount of public parking is

Its the next step in San Mateos
move to make use of the properties that represent some of the last
assets secured by its former redevelopment agency which was
previously able to siphon off
property tax revenue for affordable housing goals before Gov.
Jerry Brown responded to the state

deficit by dissolving them in


2012.
The city bought the two parcels
in the late 1990s for $5 million
and consultants now estimate
their value has ballooned to
between $12 million and $16 million. After negotiating with the
state, city officials were pleased to
announce it could keep the properties and embarked on an outreach

process to consider how to leverage the sites for public good.


We only get one shot at this
property and weve been talking
about it for years, said Deputy
Mayor David Lim, according to a
live video of the meeting. I do
not want to see us limiting the

PetSmart sued after dog died while groomed


By Daniel Montes
BAY CITY NEWS SERVICE

The owners of a pet dachshund who died in May during a


grooming appointment at a San Mateo PetSmart filed a lawsuit Tuesday morning, alleging the company had received several complaints of pet injuries during grooming appointments
before but failed to take action to correct the problem.
Terrie Peacock and Stefan Ziers 1-year-old dachshund Henry
died after he was brought into the PetSmart at 3520 S. El
Camino Real on May 15 for a nail trim.
Minutes later, the groomer appeared holding an unresponsive Henry, as the dog bled from his mouth. A veterinarian at
the store was unable to revive the dog and he was pronounced
dead.
The groomer, later identified as 38-year-old Hayward resident Juan Zarate, was arrested that same day on suspicion of
felony animal cruelty.
According to the complaint against PetSmart, which was
filed by the couples attorney Alison Cordova, a large number
of consumers nationwide have reported serious injury or pet
deaths during grooming sessions at the animal supply store
dating as far back as 2010. The injuries range from severe
cuts, to overheating, strangulation and blunt force trauma.
The complaint alleges PetSmart knew of the complaints for
years prior to Henrys death, but didnt do anything about
them.
The failure is especially alarming since PetSmart makes
claims to the public regarding its commitment to caring for
pets, according to the complaint.
The volume of reports of dogs and cats sustaining serious, and sometimes lethal injuries while being groomed at
PetSmart undermines the claim that PetSmart is where pets
are family, Cordova said in a statement. PetSmart claims
that it trains its groomers and annually certifies its
groomers in safety. If that is the case, then it seems the

Two arrested at
alleged brothel
By Daniel Montes
BAY CITY NEWS SERVICE

Observant residents in a San Mateo neighborhood led


police to the discovery of an alleged brothel, resulting in two
arrests on Monday, police said.
An investigation into a home in the 400 block of West 20th
Avenue began earlier this month when officers received several complaints about the home being a suspected brothel,
according to police Sgt. Amanda Von Glahn.
The home is located on the same street as San Mateo City
Hall and Junipero Serra High School.
When police sent undercover officers to investigate, they
were able to develop evidence that showed prostitution was
occurring at the residence, police said.
On Monday evening, officers served a search warrant at the
home, Von Glahn said.
There, officers arrested two people, identified as 25-yearold Jin Xiang Zhen and 27-year-old Ruibiao Li. Zhen was
arrested on suspicion of operating a house of ill fame while Li
was arrested on suspicion of possession of a controlled substance, according to Von Glahn.
The pair was booked into the Maguire Correctional Facility.
No human trafficking victims were in the home at the time,
police said.
Police are thanking community members for reporting the
suspicious behavior. Police said they are devoted to helping
victims of human trafficking and partner with the San Mateo
County Human Trafficking Program to provide them with
assistance.
Anyone with information about the case is asked to contact
Officer Nick Morsilli at (650) 522-7773 or the departments
secret witness line at (650) 522-7676.

Obituary
Lynn Ann E. Rubia
Lynn Ann E. Rubia, born April 28, 1936, died Nov. 13,
2016.
She was a resident of Stockton.
Lynn, daughter of John A. and Helen E. Donahue, was born
in Mt. Vernon, New York. She was a gifted and dedicated
teacher. She taught in many schools around the country
including Riordan High School in San Francisco.
After leaving Riordan High School, Lynn married John
Rubia in 1975 and continued to teach at St. Timothys in San
Mateo and St. Lukes in Stockton and retired from teaching
after 45 years. She was an active member of her community in
Stockton volunteering at the Assistance League of Stockton,
The Womens Center and the Stockton Marine Corps Club.
She leaves her beloved husband, John, her five children,
her brother, 10 grandchildren, three great-grandchildren, four
nieces, two nephews and many great nieces and nephews. She
is also survived by her in-laws.
Funeral services will be held at 10 a.m. Dec. 3 at St.

system is broken.
Following the incident, Henry was
whisked away and his owners never saw
him again, according to Cordova.
A necropsy later determined that the dog
was strangled. A post-mortem X-ray
showed the dog also suffered two broken
ribs and a punctured lung.
Cordova said Zier and Peacock, who
have two other dachshunds, never received
Juan Zarate an apology or explanation for Henrys
death.
Their dogs are like their kids. It may be hard to for some
people to believe, but the loss has been really harrowing for
them, Cordova said. Its really about PetSmart having some
accountability here.
Zarate has since pleaded not guilty to charges of animal cruelty and animal abuse. Hes scheduled to be in court
Wednesday, where a date for his trial will be set, according to
San Mateo County District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe.
In addition to unspecified damages, with the lawsuit Zier and
Peacock are seeking to prevent this from happening again.
The goal is to change the systems, either internally or to
have some sort of larger oversight and regulation of the industry. It really isnt about the money, Cordova said.

Man gets 19 years for


attempted murder, assaulting officer

Local briefs

An alleged gangmember who shot at a dropout and drove


his vehicle at a Menlo Park police officer to evade arrest
was sentenced to 19 years in prison as part of a plea deal,
according to prosecutors.
Ivan Mandujano Tapia, a 25-year-old Redwood City man,
appeared in court Tuesday where he was sentenced for two
felonies related to separate incidents stemming from as far
back as May 2015.
Tapia could have faced life in prison but opted to plead no
contest in September in exchange for no more than 19
years behind bars.
Tapia was convicted of felony attempted murder for the
May 8, 2015, retaliation shooting of a man whod allegedly dropped out of a local street gang. Tapia pulled up next to
a vehicle on Woodside Road and fired at least five rounds at
the victim, striking him four times, according to prosecutors.
On Jan. 14, 2015, Tapia was contacted by Menlo Parks
street crimes team and responded by reversing into a car
behind him, then driving forward into an unmarked cop car
and driving at a Menlo Park officer who had to dive out of
the way, according to prosecutors. A 4-mile chase ensued
but Tapia escaped and was subsequently arrested in Oakland
June 2. A gun was found as his home, according to prosecutors.

Tapia was given 619 days credit for time served and was
ordered to pay restitution in an amount to be determined. He
will serve a minimum of 15 more years, according to prosecutors.

Police arrest five at hotel after finding drugs, gun


Police arrested five people at a San Bruno hotel early
Tuesday morning after officers found members of the group
to be in possession of a variety of drugs and at least one
gun.
Around 3:10 a.m., officers responded to the Regency Inn
SFO Airport at 411 San Bruno Ave. E., according to police.
They contacted 35-year-old Daly City resident Robert
Gonzaba and 24-year-old Pacifica resident Taylor Andrews.
Officers found Gonzaba to be in possession of fentanyl and
Andrews to be in possession of Xanax and Valium.
The pair was arrested on suspicion of possession of narcotics. Andrews was also arrested for an unrelated warrant,
police said.
A further investigation led officers to contact Daniel
Dance, a 34-year-old Pacifica man, and Jennifer Davidson,
an 18-year-old Pacifica woman. Dance was found to be in
possession of heroin and cocaine and Davidson was found
with methamphetamine.
Officers arrested the pair on suspicion of possession of

narcotics, according to police.
Officers also contacted 38-year-old Oakley resident Justin
Salinas, who was found to be in possession of a loaded
firearm. Officers learned Salinas had previously been arrested for illegal possession of a firearm and was on parole.
He was arrested on suspicion of being a convicted felon in
possession of a firearm, as well as violating his parole,
police said.

Man pleads no contest to


asking minors for naked selfies
An East Palo Alto man pleaded no contest on Monday to
using a minor for commercial sex acts after he was discovered to be communicating with minors to obtain and distribute naked selfies, prosecutors said Tuesday.
Deepak Charan, 25, entered the plea in the courtroom of
San Mateo County Superior Court Judge Elizabeth Lee in
Redwood City on the condition that he spends no more than
eight years in prison.
He was arrested earlier this year after an investigation
into child pornography distribution coming from East Palo
Alto.
Authorities in Florida alerted East Palo Alto police in
August 2015 that someone there was distributing child
pornography and provided the IP address of the suspect.
Police tracked it to Charan and obtained a search warrant
that was served in February 2016. Investigators seized his
cellphone and laptop, discovering child pornography and
messages with minors asking for naked selfies, prosecutors
said.
Charan was arrested and charged with six counts but
reached a deal to plead no contest to the single count on
Monday.
He is scheduled to be sentenced on Feb. 22.

Fatality on Caltrain tracks


A man was fatally struck by a train while on the tracks in
San Mateo Tuesday afternoon in the ninth fatality for
Caltrain this year, according to a Caltrain spokeswoman.
The incident occurred around 2:35 p.m., when a southbound train struck the man near Bellevue Avenue, between
the San Mateo and Burlingame stations, Caltrain officials
said.
It appears that the fatality was intentional, Caltrain
spokeswoman Tasha Bartholomew said.
About 700 passengers were onboard at the time, however,
none of the passengers were injured, according to
Bartholomew.
Following a preliminary investigation, trains were single tracking at reduced speeds in the area. The scene has
since been cleared and service has resumed in both directions with delays of up to 44 minutes, Bartholomew said.
The number of fatalities that have occurred on the tracks
is down this year compared to last year. Last year, 20 fatalities were reported, according to Caltrain officials.

Czech free-climber
scales Yosemite rock
wall in record time
By Scott Smith
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

FRESNO Gripping tiny slices


of sheer rock and hoisting himself
up 3, 000 feet with only his
strength, Adam Ondra quietly
inched his way up one of the
worlds most challenging rock
walls and into the record books, a
spokesman for the climber said
Tuesday.
Ondra, a 23-year-old from the
Czech Republic, took eight days
to finish the free-climb up the
Dawn Wall of the famed El Capitan
in Californias Yosemite National
Park.
He completed the second-ever
free assent of the wall Monday,
said John Dicuollo, a spokesman
for Black Diamond Equipment,
which sponsors Ondra.
Nearly two years ago, U. S.
climbers Tommy Caldwell and
Kevin Jorgeson were first to chart
and conquer the route, a feat that
took the pair 19 days.
Its like being a proud parent,
in a way, Jorgeson said Tuesday,

honored that Ondra was drawn to


the challenge. Thats the point:
To raise the bar so someone else
can do the same thing and stand on
our shoulders.
Unlike climbers who need more
elaborate
equipment,
freeclimbers use their strength and
ability to grasp tiny cracks and
lips on the granite rock with their
fingertips and toes. They use
ropes and harnesses only for safety to catch a fall.
Throughout the climb, Ondra
took to social media to post about
the cold, soaking rain and the pain
from the granite wearing down the
skin on his fingers. He also celebrated victories.
Hard to find the words to
describe how I feel, he wrote on
Instagram as he neared the top.
We made it up to the Wino Tower
and no more hard pitches guard my
way to the top. I could not have
asked for a better day.
Ondra, pictured in jeans and a Tshirt pumping his arms after completing a difficult stretch of the
climb, was not available for com-

ment. Dicuollo said Ondras cellphone was off as he celebrated by
resting.
Ondra completed the climb in
his first visit to Yosemite Valley.
He arrived in mid-October, spending several days practicing some
of the walls most harrowing sections, before launching the formal
climb on Nov. 14.
To rest, Ondra and his team
pitched tents suspended on the
walls sheer face towering hundreds of feet above Yosemite
Valley. The park famous for its

grand views, giant sequoias and


pristine meadows is known for
attracting daredevil adventurers
from around the globe.
Ondra had already distinguished
himself as the first to hold two
world championships in climbing, his sponsors said. Earlier this
year, he also completed his university degree in business management.
He closely monitored Caldwell
and Jorgesons accomplishment
in early 2015, drawing on inspiration from their climb to attempt

his own, his sponsor said.


Yosemite climber and historian
Ken Yager said there is no doubt
that Ondra is the strongest climber
alive today. Yager, however, credits Caldwell for taking years to
chart the path up the Dawn Wall,
the most difficult of several routes
that climbers can take up El
Capitan.
Hopefully, Adam, with his
skills, will come back and pioneer
his own route, Yager said. He
can push it to his own level. Hes
got the skills to. Its whether he
has the desire, too.

Demand rebounds for California pollution credits in auction


By Jonathan J. Cooper
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SACRAMENTO Demand for


California pollution permits
rebounded in the latest carbon auction after plummeting earlier this
year, state officials said Tuesday.
Still, the permits did not sell
out, heightening uncertainty
about the programs future.
About 88 percent of the available credits were purchased at the
quarterly auction held last week by
California and its trading partner,
Quebec, Canada. Thats an
improvement from the 35 percent
sold in August and 10 percent in
May.

However,
the
uncertainty
blamed for depressing the demand
may be getting worse as Presidentelect Donald Trump, who called
man-made climate change a hoax
during the campaign, prepares to
take office. Trump further muddied
his position Tuesday, telling the
New York Times he thinks theres
some connectivity between
humans and climate change.
Since 2012, California has
required companies emitting climate-changing gases to buy pollution permits, which are auctioned quarterly and also sold in
secondary markets. Until demand
plunged this year, the credits routinely sold out, generating hundreds of millions of dollars for

state environmental initiatives.


The uptick this quarter was likely spurred by an increase in the
price floor for credits next year,
experts on the market said.
Alex Jackson, legal director for
the National Resources Defense
Councils California Climate
Project, cautioned against drawing
conclusions from the results of
one auction.
Theres a tendency to read into
these quarterly auction results as a
barometer of the overall health of
the program, Jackson said. The
objective of the program is to
reduce emissions, not raise revenue.
The pollution program, known
as cap and trade, is among the

most
visible weapons
in
Californias arsenal of policies
that seek to control emissions of
heat-trapping gases and are credited with keeping emissions in
check despite a growing population.
Proceeds from the cap and trade
program fund a variety of initiatives prized by the Democrats who
control Californias government,
including transit construction and
energy conservation efforts.
Theyre a primary source of revenue for a high-speed rail project
thats one of Gov. Jerry Browns
top priorities.
This years dip in demand is
blamed on a glut of permits on the
market and mounting legal uncer-

tainty about whether the program


will survive a number of legal
challenges on the horizon.
A state appellate court will hear
arguments in January in a lawsuit
filed by the California Chamber of
Commerce contending that the
program is an unconstitutional
tax because it wasnt approved by
a two-thirds supermajority of the
Assembly and state Senate.
Lawmakers injected a shot of
certainty in September when they
extended Californias climate
change goals for another 10 years
and set a much more ambitious target. Still, critics argue the legislation, SB32, does not extend the
authorization for the cap-and-trade
program beyond 2020.

Senate trade-off
More Obama judges, Trump gets nominees
By Mary Clare Jalonick
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Republicans are gleeful over


Democratic-engineered rule changes that will make it easier
for President-elect Donald Trump to get his Cabinet nominees through the Senate. Yet Democrats see a lasting upside
from what they did: allowing President Barack Obama to
shape the federal judiciary for years to come.
Democrats in 2013 scaled back the power of the Senate
minority to throw roadblocks in front of a presidents nominees. In the years that followed, the Senate confirmed
almost 100 federal judges nominated by Obama, bringing
to 329 the number of judicial nominees confirmed during
Obamas term in office.
The impact of those lifetime appointments will be especially felt on the federal appeals court in Washington, often
called the second most important court after the Supreme
Court because it hears many cases on environmental and
other regulations. Judges picked by Republican presidents
had dominated the court, but now Democratic appointees
hold a 7-4 advantage. Obama has put four judges there,
including three after the rules changes.
Outgoing Senate Democratic leader Harry Reid engineered
the changes, dubbed the nuclear option because of the
intensity they could add to partisanship, after Republicans
blocked many of Obamas nominees. Even with a
Republican majority in the Senate, the Nevada Democrat
says he would do it again.
The nuclear option lets presidents show their true colors
and guarantees a nominee a fair up-or-down vote, Reid said
in a statement this week. If Republicans want to go on
record supporting radicals, thats their decision and they
will have to live with it.
Nan Aron, the president of the liberal judicial advocacy
group Alliance for Justice, says that if the rules hadnt been
changed, Trump would now be filling seats on the D.C. circuit and other courts.
They will undoubtedly hear challenges to Trumps regulatory agenda, challenges to executive orders, Aron said.
In November 2013, the rules changes reduced the number
of votes needed to end filibusters, or procedural roadblocks,
on nominations from 60 to a simple majority, usually 51.
Republicans are on track to hold 52 seats next year, meaning they wont need any Democratic votes to confirm the
new Cabinet or confirm federal judges whom Trump himself is expected to nominate.
At the time of the changes, Republican leader Mitch
McConnell warned Democrats that the strategy could backfire.

Trumps charity admits
to violating IRS self-dealing ban
WASHINGTON President-elect Donald Trumps charity
has admitted that it violated IRS regulations barring it from
using its money or assets to benefit Trump, his family, his
companies or substantial contributors to the foundation.
The admissions by the Donald J. Trump Foundation were
made in a 2015 tax filing made public after a presidential
election in which it was revealed that Trump has used the
charity to settle lawsuits, make a $25,000 political contribution and purchase items such as a painting of himself that
was displayed at one of his properties.
The filings release, first reported by The Washington
Post, comes as the New York attorney generals office
investigates whether Trump personally benefited from the
foundations spending.
The filing also shows Trumps foundation accepted
money from a Ukrainian businessman who also gave
money to one of Trumps favored targets on the campaign
trail: The Clinton Foundation. The charity also donated to a
conservative group that backed Trump during his candidacy.

Trump facing hurdles to


reinstate waterboarding
By Deb Riechmann
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON President-elect
Donald Trump backs waterboarding and
his pick for CIA director has called
those who have done it patriots not
torturers. Yet a Trump administration
faces steep legal and legislative hurdles
to reinstate the interrogation practice
that simulates drowning.
Under a law approved last year, all
government employees, including
intelligence agents, must abide by
Army guidelines for interrogating prisoners guidelines that dont permit
waterboarding. Those rules are subject
to review, but its not clear if they can
be revised to allow the practice.
If the Trump administration were to
try to change the law or the guidelines,

the effort would run into bipartisan


opposition in Congress. The most formidable obstacle there would be a fellow Republican, John McCain. The
Arizona senator, who was beaten as a
prisoner of war in Vietnam in the
1960s, adamantly opposes waterboarding. As chairman of the Senate Armed
Services Committee, he would be wellpositioned to block any attempt to
revive it.
McCain has clashed before with
Trump, who during the campaign
claimed the former Navy pilot wasnt a
war hero because he had been captured.
At a security conference in Canada last
weekend, McCain indicated he was
ready to take on Trump again as begins
another six-year term after winning reelection.
I dont give a damn what the presi-

dent of the United States wants to do or


anybody else wants to do, McCain
said. We will not waterboard. We will
not do it.
Waterboarding and other harsh methods were used in the aftermath of the
Sept. 11, 2001, attacks to try to obtain
useful information from terrorist suspects. Many intelligence, military and
law enforcement officials say the practice is ineffective as well as immoral.
They say it breaks down trust between
the suspect and interrogators and often
prompts a detainee to say anything to
stop the harsh treatment.
But Trump, who revved up his supporters with tough talk against against
Islamic State extremists, pledged to
interrogate terrorist suspects with
waterboarding and a hell of a lot
worse.

Drill, baby, drill? Election reignites offshore-oil debate


By Patrick Whittle
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

The controversy over drilling for oil


in the Atlantic Ocean has been reignited by the election of Donald Trump,
and environmentalists and coastal
businesses say it could be the first
major fault line that divides them from
the new president.
The Obama administration has
moved to restrict access to offshore oil
drilling leases in the Atlantic, as well
as off Alaska. Commercial oil produc-

tion has never happened off the East


Coast and environmentalists consider that a major victory during
Obamas tenure.
But President-elect Trump has said
that he intends to use all available fuel
reserves for energy self-sufficiency
and that its time to be opening up offshore drilling.
While supporters say that expanded
oil exploration is poised to become
one of Trumps signature accomplishments, environmentalists and other
opponents see oil drilling policy as a
looming conflict. Jacqueline Savitz,

vice president of the ocean conservationist group Oceana, said she fears a
return to the hard-fought struggles
environmentalists faced with the previous Republican administration.
Were hoping were not about to
fall back into the drill, baby, drill
way of thinking, she said. Offshore
drilling in the Atlantic is not a good
investment.
The American Petroleum Institute, a
key voice of the oil and gas industries,
has long said more aggressive drilling
is needed for the U.S. to remain a world
leader in energy production.

Scare, then relief after powerful


Japan earthquake and tsunami
By Ken Moritsugu
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

TOKYO At first, it was 2011 all


over again.
It really came back. And it was so
awful. The sways to the side were huge,
Kazuhiro Onuki said after northeastern
Japan was jolted Tuesday by a magnitude-7.4 earthquake, the strongest since
a devastating quake and tsunami five
years ago.
But nothing fell from the shelves,
Onuki, 68, said in a phone interview,
his voice calm and quiet.
Coastal residents returned home from
higher ground, and fishing boats to
port, after tsunami warnings were lifted
along Japans Pacific coast. The earthquake gave Tokyo 240 kilometers
(150 miles) away a good shake, but
was much less powerful than the magnitude-9.0 quake in 2011, and only moderate tsunami waves reached shore.
The Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear power
plant, which leaked radiation for kilometers (miles) after the 2011 tsunami,
reported
no
abnormalities.
Decommissioning work on the
destroyed reactors was suspended and
the site inspected.
At least 14 people were reported
injured, three with broken bones, and
Japanese TV showed items scattered on
the floor in a store and books fallen
from shelves in a library.
On the coast, lines of cars snaked
away in the pre-dawn darkness after
authorities urged residents to seek higher ground immediately.
The first tsunami waves hit about an
hour later. The highest one, at 1.4
meters (4.6 feet), reached Sendai Bay
about two hours after the quake. By comparison, the waves in 2011 were 10 to

Firefighters and local residents look toward the port to check the water level after
tsunami advisories were issued following an earthquake in Soma, Fukushima
prefecture, Japan.
20 meters (30 to 60 feet) high.
The evacuation appeared to proceed
calmly. Katushiro Abe, a 47-year-old
tourism official in Ishinomaki, a city
hit hard by the 2011 tsunami, was on
the early shift and already in the office,
but his wife and teenage daughter fled
their home.
He said his family jumped in a car and
drove to the foot of a nearby hill and
rushed up.
Tsunami alerts have been issued at
least two times since 2011, he said, so
his family was prepared and wasnt that
alarmed. We stayed in touch by email,
he said.
It was the largest earthquake in northeastern Japan since the one in 2011 and
some large aftershocks the same day.
The U.S. Geological Survey measured

Tuesdays quake at a lower magnitude


6.9.
The Japan Meteorological Agency
described it as an aftershock of the 2011
quake, which triggered a tsunami that
killed about 18,000 people and wiped
out entire neighborhoods.
Aftershocks could continue not only
for five years but as long as 100 years,
Yasuhiro Umeda, a Kyoto University
seismologist, said on Japanese broadcaster NTV.
In some areas, water could be seen
moving up rivers, which funnel the
waves to even greater heights, but
remained well within flood embankments. It was eerily reminiscent of the
2011 disaster, when much larger waves
rushed up rivers and overflowed, sweeping away houses and automobiles.

School bus driver arrested

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. A school bus driver was behind
bars Tuesday after a crash killed five youngsters and plunged
Chattanooga into mourning over what

Children the same age as those who died were talking,
getting antsy and playing a little in the capacity-filled

Police: Package bomb


explodes when man opens it in kitchen
PHILADELPHIA A bomb stuffed inside a padded envelope exploded in a downtown apartment early Tuesday when
a man opened the package, apparently thinking it contained medicine, police said. The man was hospitalized with
hand and chest injuries.
Federal agents and the citys bomb squad were investigating the pre-dawn blast, which injured a man in his 60s.
Authorities said the man, whose name wasnt released, had
arrived home at around 4 a.m. after being out of town and
was opening his mail.
Chief Inspector Joe Sullivan said the envelope contained
shrapnel and caused substantial damage to appliances in
the kitchen. The mans most serious injuries involved his
left hand.
The package was target specific, police Commissioner
Richard Ross said. Authorities dont believe the envelope
was sent in the mail because it had an old barcode on it, he
said.

U.S. airstrikes top 1,000
against IS in Iraq and Syria
USS EISENHOWER, Persian Gulf One
after another, fighter jets catapult from the
flight deck of the USS Eisenhower, a thousand-foot (305-meter) American aircraft carrier, afterburners glowing amber above the
blue Persian Gulf, on their way northwest to
join the fight in Iraq and Syria against the
Islamic State.
The fighter jets refuel on the way before
receiving from coalition partners targets like
convoys, hideouts and mortar positions in
IS-controlled territories such as Mosul and
Raqqa, said Rear Adm. James Malloy, commander of the Eisenhower carrier strike
group.
From his office aboard the USS
Eisenhower, Malloy described coalition success around Mosul while cautioning that victory is close at hand.
Mosul is the last large city in Iraq that is
held by Daesh, but Daesh is by no means finished in Iraq, so our mission in Iraq wont end
as Mosul falls, he said, using the Arabic
acronym for IS.
While inter-coalition coordination was
seamless, communication with Russia was
limited to deconfliction, Malloy said.
Theres no coordination there because the
goals are not the same, the admiral said.

Zika-caused birth defect


may become clear only after birth
NEW YORK Researchers say a severe
birth defect caused by Zika infection may not
be apparent at birth but develop months
afterward, further confirmation that the virus
can cause unseen damage to developing
babies.
The findings come from a study of 13
Brazilian babies whose heads all appeared
normal at birth but then grew much more
slowly than normal.
Most people infected with Zika never
develop symptoms, but infection during
pregnancy can cause devastating birth
defects, including microcephaly, in which a
babys skull is much smaller than expected
because the brain hasnt developed properly.
Microcephaly is diagnosed based on a
measurement of the babys head circumference. It can be done during pregnancy using
ultrasound, or after the baby is born. Doctors
then compare the measurement to standard
sizes of other kids, based on gender and age.
The study focused on 13 babies born in
Brazil late last year and earlier this year. All
had head heads that were a little small at
birth, but within the normal range. Over the
next five to 12 months, doctors noted their
heads werent growing at normal rates.
Eleven were eventually diagnosed with
microcephaly.

Iraqi forces move to retake


another Mosul neighborhood
By Qassim Abdul-Zahra
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

IRBIL, Iraq Iraqi troops gained a


foothold Tuesday in another neighborhood
in the northern city of Mosul after fierce
battles against Islamic State militants dug
in behind heavy fortifications, according
to a top Iraqi commander.
A new analysis, meanwhile, has found
that there is a high risk that IS will deploy
chemical weapons against Mosul civilians
or Iraqi troops fighting to retake the city.
According to IHS Markit, the extremist
group has used chemical weapons at least
52 times in Iraq and Syria since 2014,
including 19 times in the Mosul area
alone.
Brig. Gen. Haider Fadhil, of the Iraqi special forces, told the Associated Press that
IS fighters were firing rockets and mortars
as his forces cautiously advanced in the
densely populated Zohour neighborhood.
There are too many civilians still living
there, he said.
Iraqi troops began their siege of Zohour
on Sunday as they fortified their positions
in neighborhoods already retaken in eastern Mosul. Suicide bombings, sniper fire
and concerns over the safety of civilians
there are 1 million still in Mosul
have combined to slow down progress in
the campaign to liberate the city, which
began Oct. 17.
Mosul is Iraqs second-largest city and
the largest to have fallen to the militants.
Most gains in the campaign so far have
been made by the special forces operating
east of the Tigris River. Other forces,
including the Kurdish peshmerga and volunteer Sunni militiamen, are advancing on
the city from different directions, and the
U.S.-led coalition is providing airstrikes
and other support.
A coalition airstrike on Monday
destroyed a major bridge over the Tigris in
the southern part of Mosul, cutting IS supply lines to the east bank, where most of
the fighting is taking place. The coalition
has destroyed three bridges in Mosul, and
Iraqi officers said the two remaining
bridges in the city are also likely to be hit.
They spoke to the AP on condition of
anonymity because they were not authorized to brief reporters.
The Iraqi troops are expected to use U.S.made pontoon bridges when they need to
cross the Tigris later in the campaign.

Iraqis finally put out some


oil fires set months ago by IS
By Brian Rohan and Sinan Salaheddin
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

QAYARA, Iraq For months, residents of


the Iraqi town of Qayara have lived under a
dark cloud of toxic fumes released by oil
well fires lit by retreating Islamic State
fighters.
But in recent days, oil workers and firefighters have extinguished the blazes closest to the populated center. The move has
returned a small measure of order to Qayara,
where complaints about government neglect have simmered since last summer, when
the militants torched the oil wells as the
Iraqi army drove them out.
The work is far from complete, but it could
be a first step in easing some of the bitterness, anger and social fissures among people who desperately need government services and reconciliation after waves of retaliatory violence that followed the defeat of
the extremists.
The atmosphere is good. The wells are

almost fully under control. They extinguished most. Some of them are still ablaze,
but we see the morning, we can see the sun,
shop owner Mohannad Seoud Ahmad Matar
said Tuesday. Ten days ago, this sky was
completely dark. You couldnt distinguish
day from night.
Eight burning wells have been extinguished in recent weeks, said Oil Ministry
spokesman Assem Jihad, adding that most
were located near homes. The areas 54 wells
once pumped nearly 10,000 barrels a day
before IS militants took the fields in their
June 2014 onslaught when they seized a
third of Iraqs territory.
Jihad could not say how many were still
burning, but from the edge of the town, at
least five separate sites could be seen.
The work has taken so long because of
security concerns: Militants initially still
had fired mortars occasionally into the area,
and it also had to be cleared of booby traps
and unexploded ordinance left behind by IS
fighters.

Unfortunately, with this ruling, we

sought, but rather a request to begin
environmental impact studies, information we will ultimately need to
properly evaluate the proposed project. I applaud Commissioners Rick

calling for the additional information

Ken Whites accomplishments


Editor,
I have been associated with the
Peninsula Humane Society as both a
volunteer and a member of the auxiliary for over 50 years. My husband was
on the Board of Directors that hired
Ken White.
There arent many around who
remember the badly inadequate facilities and ineffective management that
existed at that time. Ken White
changed all that almost immediately.
Yes, he was going to be paid a lot of
money, but no more than any similar
executive with the same experience and
responsibilities. In just a few years
since his arrival, we have the Tom
Lantos Campus for Compassion on
Rollins Road in Burlingame, raised
millions of dollars for the society and
are nally going to get a new county
animal control facility at Coyote
Point.
In retrospect, Ken White has exceeded even the most optimistic expectations when he was hired. An executives worth should be measured by performance, and he has shown that he is
worth every bit of his compensation.

No abuse at PHS
Editor,
Im a current longtime volunteer at
PHS Lantos and Coyote Point facilities, helping cats, dogs and wildlife. I
also used to work alongside one of
the ex-volunteers mentioned in the
article. We volunteered at the
Furchandise Pet Store, where you
dont interact with animals. I also
may be the dumpster diver in that article. Not literally of course, but stores
would give me the veggies before the
dumpster to give to the rehabbing
wildlife. To also claim animal abuse
means its intentional, and that is a
crazy accusation to make. I have
never seen anyone abuse anything
there, and Ive logged in probably
10,000 hours to her thousand. If you
want to know the truth, talk to someone that knows it.
As far as Mr. Whites salary, yes, he
makes a lot of money. But without
him, there would be no new Lantos
Adoption Center. Then everything
would still be at the old, crumbling
Coyote Point facility they are complaining about, and we all know
needs replacing. Check out the numbers of adoptions or volunteers.
There were 300 volunteers before Ken
came, and now theres 1,400.
A few disgruntled people are only
hurting all the animals at PHS now
and tomorrow. Because their baseless
claims can have an adverse affect on a
donors decision to give or not, or a
volunteer to want to volunteer or not,
hurts. Please, trust the facts, and not
the stories.

Alarm bells
Editor,
I read with interest the front page
article in the Nov. 18 issue of the Daily
Journal regarding the reported mistreatment of some of the animals in the care
of the Peninsula Humane Society. In
the article, facts, gures and experiences by both employees and management were documented in direct conict
with each other.
However, when volunteers (unpaid
workers) voiced their concerns and
complaints about the care of animals at
PHS, alarm bells went off in my head.
These volunteers are motivated by love
of animals, not a paycheck. Their compensation is the restored health and
affection of these animals. As an animal lover and annual donor to PHS, I
am reluctant to continue my nancial
support until I am assured that the
voiced concerns of inadequate stafng
and inadequate training of volunteers
is addressed.
The fact that some PHS volunteers
have resigned speaks volumes to my
way of thinking. I hope the decision
makers are listening.

Commerce with

hanging the American diet, and thus reducing obesity, and improving public health,
will require building the political power to
challenge the economic forces that have molded the food
system and continue to prot from its shape. Winonah
Hauter, Foodopoly.
During all of the excitement (or should I say dismay) of
the election process, there were a few food related items
that were in the newspaper and on TV that I put on hold for
a few weeks. Of course, one that especially aroused my
penchant for editorial comment was the struggle over the
soda tax measures. When you think what the big bucks
that the industry has spent on trying to hoodwink voters
into voting no could have done to, say, help homeless
children, its outrageous!
Of course, the fact that
the soda tax measures
passed is a good thing, but
the rst thing that came to
mind was how pathetic it is
that this had to come up for
vote at all. Next, how sad
that so many parents apparently value their own
health and that of their
children so little that they
buy such anti-nutritious
products. Im sure they
have heard that allowing
their kids to consume such
junk food is risking obesity and diabetes because of the
high sugar content and the complete lack of nutrients in
those products. Could it be that the parents are so addicted
to them that they are in denial? Is it possible that they
have no concept of the effect of what they do today may
have on tomorrow? Some time ago, it was reported in
Nutrition Action Health Letter: People who drink at
least seven servings of sugar-sweetened beverages a week
had a 29 percent greater risk of cardiovascular disease than
those who consumed no more than one serving a week.
Thats one big reason why we need some serious education in our schools and anywhere the occasion arises
about the importance of good nutrition. But how many
schools offer health classes, much less require them? And
if they do have such a class, do they dare to censure such
products? How many parents, even if they know better, do
not take the time to prepare nutritious food, much less
teach their children about eating healthfully and setting a
good example themselves? How many schools still use
teaching materials provided by corporate interests? How
many have removed vending machines and adjusted cafeteria food so that it provides maximum nutritional benet?
And, as Brian Kahn wrote in Real Common Sense:
Why isnt our government willing to pass regulations to
protect kids from junk food advertising? There can be
only one answer: Our public ofcials believe that junk
food prots are more important than the health of our
nations children. The willingness to harm children
reects the essential difference between a corporate/consumer value system and one of citizen/community. To
General Mills, selling food that damages childrens health
is fully proper, just as tobacco companies selling cancercausing cigarettes is proper. It is free enterprise that generates prot and increases shareholder value. He calls it
Commerce Without Conscience.
Which brings to mind the latest innovation at General
Mills. Shortly after the rst of the year, they are coming
out with some new cereals named after (get this) Girl Scout
Cookies thin mint and caramel crunch. I guess it isnt
mind-boggling enough that those cookies sold by Girl
Scouts are perfect examples of the kinds of products that
people concerned about their own and their familys
health would consume rarely or not at all. Yet, those in
charge of Girl Scouts of America continue to have no
qualms about pitching on street corners and at our front
doors.
For the sake of our children, it cant be emphasized
enough that its up to us as individuals to take the responsibility to eat healthfully instead of indulging ourselves
with contrived products produced by an industry that cares
nothing about our physical well-being or that of our
nation. Of course, as reported in a recent Mercury News
article, fast-food fan Trump, in his fervor to promote corporate interests, is likely to nullify the progress that has
been made in this regard. But, as Robert H. Lustig wrote in
Fat Chance: If theres any lesson to be gleaned from
this book, its that food is health. But while you are
ostensibly in charge of your health, you are clearly not in
charge of your food. In fact, those who are in charge of our
food are doing their level best to make a buck off of you
and if your health goes down the tubes, thats not just
YOUR problem, its everyones problem.

Dow surpasses 19K as a record-setting drive continues


By Marley Jay

DOW JONES INDUSTRIALS

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK The Dow Jones


industrial average surpassed
19,000 for the first time Tuesday
as a post-election rally drove
indexes further into record territory. Discount store chains made
large gains, but health care companies tumbled.
Stocks opened solidly higher
after setting records on Monday.
They gave up some of their gains
around midday but reached new
highs late in the afternoon. Health
care stocks slumped after weak
results from medical device company Medtronic. Retailers soared
after strong earnings from Dollar
Tree and Burlington Stores.
The consumer in general is far
more budget-conscious than they
were in previous generations,
Ken Perkins, president of research
firm Retail Metrics, said of discount chains.
The Dow picked up 67. 18
points, or 0. 4 percent, to
19,023.87. The Standard & Poors
500 index added 4.76 points, or
0. 2 percent, to 2, 202. 94. The
Nasdaq composite gained 17.49
points, or 0. 3 percent, to
5,386.35.

the chain reported solid results in


the third quarter. Burlington
Stores also raised its outlook after
it posted a larger profit than analysts expected. Dollar Tree jumped
$6.69, or 8.2 percent, to $88.68
and Burlington Stores added
$11.86, or 16 percent, to $86.04.
Other retailers like Home Depot,
TJX and Signet Jewelers also rose
as consumer stocks reached alltime highs. Perkins, of Retail
Metrics, said chains like Dollar
Tree were able to win over new customers after the Great Recession,
and low-cost clothing companies

like TJX, the parent of TJ Maxx,


have also performed well since
that time.
Health care stocks, which are
still trading lower than they were
at the start of this year, took hefty
losses after weak results from
Medtronic, one of the worlds
largest medical device companies.
Matt Miksic, a medical device
analyst for UBS, said some
investors worried that Medtronics
results mean a lot of drug and medical device companies will face
slower growth. Miksic said
Medtronic reported weak sales

across pretty much every one of


their categories in the U.S.
The company also cut its profit
guidance. It sank $6.98, or 8.7
percent, to $73.60. Health care
products giant Johnson &
Johnson slid $2.26, or 2 percent,
to
$112. 74
and
Abbott
Laboratories, which makes infant
formula, drugs and medical
devices, gave up $1.66, or 4.2
percent, to $38.10.
Medical supplier Patterson Cos.
plunged, touching a three-year
low, after it said its dental business
struggled in the second quarter and
its animal health business was hurt
by weak prices for brand-name
drugs. Patterson cuts its profit
forecast and its shares dropped
$7.95, or 16.7 percent, to $39.56.
Campbell Soups profit in its
fiscal first quarter was better than
expected thanks to lower expenses and better sales of snacks like
Pepperidge Farm. Hormel, the
maker of Spam, reported better
results from its refrigerated foods
business and its Jennie-O turkey
unit. Hormel also gave solid guidance for the current fiscal year.
Campbell Soup gained $1.98, or
3.6 percent, to $57.02 and Hormel
rose 92 cents, or 2.6 percent, to
$35.86.

Hands-on toys that teach are hot


By Bree Fowler
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK Toys that teach arent a new


thing, but a growing number are calling for
kids to build with blocks, circuits or everyday items before reaching for a tablet screen.
Play is how kids learn about the world
around them, whether its a toddler throwing
a ball or teens playing video games. Its
about seeing how things work and what happens when they do something. And over the
years, toys have gotten more high tech to
keep screen-obsessed children engaged with
such play.
But theres growing worry among parents
and educators that toys are moving too far in
that direction. Educational toys that have a
math and science bent marketed under the
umbrella of STEM are now trying to get
back to the basics: less screen time, more
hands-on activities.

PALO ALTO HP Inc. on Tuesday posted
revenue that topped Wall Streets expectations in its latest quarter thanks to an uptick

But its profit forecast for the current quarter disappointed and its shares slid in aftermarket trading.
The Palo Alto company reported fiscal
fourth-quarter profit of $492 million, or 28
cents a share. Earnings from continuing
operations amounted to 30 cents a share.
Earnings, adjusted for one-time items
including benefit plan settlement charges,
were 36 cents per share. That matched the

of one such toy company, Osmo. Its very
different than if theyre just staring at a
screen watching TV.
With Osmo, kids learn everything from
spelling to coding not by touching a screen,
but by snapping together magnetic blocks. A
screen is still part of it; an image is beamed
onto an iPad through its camera. But the idea
is to have kids learn first with their hands,
then see their creation move to the screen.
Educators agree that whether youre talking
about a toddler playing with blocks, or a teen
building a computer from scratch, the act of
putting something together helps educational concepts sink in.
The way the world comes to us is actually
through tactile activities, so tactile toys
where we build stuff are incredible helpful,

effects of technology on childrens brain
development at Stony Brook University on

A stable job market and historically cheap borrowing costs have spurred demand from
homebuyers this year.

Home sales at strongest


pace in nearly a decade
By Josh Boak
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Americans bought


homes in October at the fastest pace in
nearly decade, helped out by low mortgage
rates that have since started to climb following the presidential election of Donald
Trump.
The National Association of Realtors said
Tuesday that sales of existing homes rose 2
percent to a seasonally adjusted annual rate
of 5.6 million. Sales reached their strongest
pace since February 2007, a sign that the
market is still healing from the collapsing
prices and foreclosures that ignited the
2008 financial crisis.
A stable job market and historically cheap
borrowing costs have spurred demand from
homebuyers this year. But sales growth has

been tempered somewhat by accelerating


prices and a shortage of properties on the
market. Sales gains could possibly slow in
the coming months as rising mortgage rates
are making home loans more expensive.
Clearly, the market continues to underestimate just how much demand for homes is
out there, even in the face of tight inventory and rising existing home prices that are
now the highest on record, said Svenja
Gudell, chief economist at the real estate
firm Zillow.
Falling mortgage rates helped boost sales
for much of the year, but rates surged following this months presidential election. The
increase means that yearly debt payments
for a median-priced home would increase by
more than $500 on average for people
attempting to buy homes in November and
December.

Menlo to Nor Cal finals

If you dont let the volleyball hit the floor,


chances are youre going to be a pretty tough
team to beat.
Even though Menlo School entered the season with a lot of unknowns a new head
coach and the absence of a prototypical outside
attacker, to name a few the one thing the
team knew it could do was shine on defense.
Wednesday night, the No.1-seed Lady
Knights (23-8 overall) rode that defense to
the Northern California finals, putting on a
show of tactical precision in digging up balls
to battle for a four-set victory 26-24, 25-16,
22-25, 26-24 over No. 4 Branson-Ross (2312) in Tuesdays Nor Cal semifinals at Menlo.
Were not the most athletic or biggest
players but we play good defense, Menlo
sophomore Selina Xu said. We trust each
other to have each others backs.
With the win, Menlo advances to Saturdays
Nor Cal finals for the first time since 2013.
The Knights will host No. 2 Monte Vista
Christian-Watsonville Saturday at 7 p.m.,
with a trip to the Division IV state championship game on the line. Monte Vista
advanced to the Nor Cal finals Tuesday with a
four-set victory to eliminate No. 3 Sacred
Heart Prep 25-21, 25-18, 25-27, 25-13.
Menlo got a scare Tuesday. Despite persevering through the first two sets, Branson
refused to back down. It was clear from the
outset the Bulls came to play. They forced the
opening set into extra points and committed
just one field error in Game 2. Then after winning Game 3, Branson maintained a slight
lead through most of Game 4 and extended it
late to 23-19.
It seems we were scared about reaching this
final, Menlo head coach Marco Paglialunga
said. We wanted it so much that when we were
close to it, we were scared.
With the threat of a possible decisive fifth
set looming, Menlo found another gear,

Notre Dame to vacate wins after academic fraud


By Tom Coyne
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SOUTH BEND, Ind. Brian Kellys worst


season at Notre Dame took a embarrassing
turn Tuesday as the NCAA announced that
academic misconduct orchestrated by a student athletic trainer will cost the storied
program all 21 victories from the 2012-13
seasons, including the 12-0 run that vaulted
the Fighting Irish into the national championship game against Alabama.
It marked just the fourth time the NCAA

a major rules violation.

vacated games
include Notre Dames 120 record in 2012, their
best regular season since

the victim of a fake girlfriend hoax.


The school ripped the NCAA for its decision to vacate the wins and immediately
said it would appeal. The Rev. John
Jenkins, the university president, said the
NCAA has never before vacated records in
such a case.
We believe that imposition of the vacation of records penalty without serious
underlying institutional misconduct will
not primarily punish those responsible for

Mayor has framework of new


plan to keep Raiders in Oakland
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

OAKLAND The mayor of Oakland


announced Tuesday she has the framework of
an agreement to keep the Oakland Raiders in
town despite talk by the clubs owner to
move the team to Las Vegas.
Oakland Mayor Libby Schaaf declined to
disclose details of the deal reached with an
investors group led by former 49er football
star Ronnie Lott. But she said the group can
commit enough money upfront for a new
stadium.
The Bay Area city has struggled to nd a
way to keep the pro football team without
putting too much nancial burden on taxpayers. Schaaf said she is in favor of using
public money to upgrade infrastructure
around the stadium in hopes of spurring economic development.
Raiders owner Mark Davis has said hed
prefer to move the team to Las Vegas, where

he is pursuing a $1.9 billion public-private stadium project off the Las


Vegas strip. He and the
Raiders are not part of the
framework
deal
announced by Schaaf.
Nevada Gov. Brian
Sandoval has said he
Libby Schaaf trusts that Davis is committed to Las Vegas.
I trust Mark Davis, Sandoval said
Tuesday. I take him at his word. I will continue to monitor the process established by
the NFL.
Schaaf said her job is to develop a proposal that will, at least, give us the ability
to compete to keep the Raiders in their
home.
Alameda County supervisors and Oakland
city councilmembers will consider the
framework in private.

Raiders playoff
hopes growing
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ALAMEDA Jack Del Rio seemed almost


shocked as he walked into the news conference
Tuesday and made his way past a growing group
of TV cameras and reporters.
I thought it would be thin today, Del Rio
said, about nine hours after the Raiders arrived
back in California following a 27-20 win over the
Houston Texans in Mexico
City.
Del Rio should probably
get used to the extra attention at this point even if
some of the chatter is about
potential stadium deals for
the team.
Jack Del Rio
At 8-2, the Raiders have
a one-game lead in the AFC
West and are tied with the New England Patriots
for the best record in the conference a remarkable turnaround for a team that lost its first 10
games two years ago and hasnt had a winning
season since last making the playoffs in 2002.
That was also the previous time Oakland had a
four-game winning streak, which the Raiders
matched by beating the Texans.

Not that there is much time for celebrating.


After arriving in California early Tuesday
morning following a red-eye flight from
Mexico City then spending an hour passing
through customs, Del Rio and his staff turned
their attention to this weeks game against
Carolina.
The short week also includes the
Thanksgiving holiday, another hurdle for Del
Rio and his staff.
There are definitely challenges to recovering
on the short week and traveling and playing at
(a high) altitude and all those things, Del Rio
said. Its hugely important for us to bounce
back from what we just did and get prepared for
whats next.
Derek Carr threw a pair of touchdown passes
in the fourth quarter against Houston to lead the
comeback, a growing trend for a quarterback that
is getting some attention as a potential MVP

After raucous weekend, NFL will likely be back in Mexico


By Carlos Rodriguez
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MEXICO CITY Mexican fans welcomed


the NFL in raucous fashion, and it probably
wont be the last time Azteca Stadium hosts
American futbol.
Next time, however, theyll try to ban
laser pointers.
Nearly 80, 000 fans came to see the
Raiders defeat the Houston Texans in a 2720 win Monday night in what felt like a
Raiders home game.
The crowd harassed the Texans and supported the Raiders , one of the most popular
NFL teams in Mexico.
The success of the game and the full weekend of events could entice the league to
bring more games to the Mexican capital.

Wild fans
The NFL says 76,473 fans were at the
game, and the atmosphere was very different
from the more neutral crowd for games in
London. Thousands of other football fans
attended a weekend-long fan fest.
Although many wore silver and black, it
was clear that the Cowboys, Texans,
Steelers and Broncos also have fans south
of the border.

Brent Burns

SAN JOSE The San


Jose Sharks have signed
star defenseman Brent
Burns to an eight-year contract extension.
The deal announced
Tuesday keeps Burns off the
free-agent market next
summer and with the
Sharks for the long term.

Besides the game, we had an excellent


trip here, great experience for our players.
Unbelievable crowd. Just a really cool
atmosphere for both teams, Texans coach
Bill OBrien said. It was a great trip as far
as thats concerned.
Before the game, there was concern that
Mexican fans could boo the U.S. national
anthem because of the political tension
since Donald Trump was elected president,
but the crowd did not.

A soccer crowd
The fans behavior was similar to the
atmosphere when the Mexican national
team or local club America play their soccer
matches in Azteca Stadium.
I was able to play at Wembley Stadium in
my rookie year, and then being able to play
here, I mean it was amazing, Raiders quarterback Derek Carr said. Theres so much
history and so much rowdiness. I love soccer, so it gave me kind of a soccer feel.
Throughout the game, the crowd chanted a
gay slur that is common in soccer matches
when the opposing goalkeeper clears the
ball.
This year, FIFA has fined Mexico three
times for the chant. The NFL did not comment about the slur.
Burns was a finalist for the Norris Trophy last
season as the NHLs top defenseman when he
helped lead San Jose to its first appearance in
the Stanley Cup Final. He led all defenseman
with 27 goals and also 48 assists. General manager Doug Wilson called Burns one of the most
dynamic players in the league.
Burns has seven goals and nine assists this
season for the Sharks.

Detroit Pistons announce downtown


move beginning next season
DETROIT The Detroit Pistons have officially announced their move downtown, with

Texans quarterback Brock Osweiler was


targeted by a green laser on several plays,
something that is common against visiting
soccer teams playing at Azteca.
Certainly, having a laser zoomed in on
your eyeball definitely affects how you
play, Osweiler said.

The Mexico Raiders?


The Raiders are exploring a move to Las
Vegas, but in the meantime, they could consider another trip back to Mexico, where
they clearly have a devoted fan base.
According to the NFL office in Mexico,
the Raiders are the fifth-most popular team
in the country. They were clearly more popular Monday night than the Texans.
Yon de Luisa, sporting vice president of
the Televisa media company which owns
Azteca Stadium, has said the deal with the
NFL could include two future games in the
venue.

Azteca renovations
Azteca Stadium, famous for hosting two
World Cup finals, was renovated with a $12
million investment for its 50th anniversary
and to celebrate club Americas 100th year.
As part of the deal to bring the NFL back,
owner Tom Gores appearing at a news conference Tuesday with Detroit Mayor Mike Duggan,
Ilitch Holdings President and CEO Christopher
Ilitch and NBA Commissioner Adam Silver.
The Pistons plan to start playing at Little
Caesars Arena next season, which would put all
four of Detroits major pro teams within a few
blocks of each other. The new arena, which is
still under construction, was already being built
to house the NHLs Red Wings, who are owned
by Mike and Marian Ilitch.
The Pistons move is still subject to approval
by the NBA, and formal legal agreements must
be finalized. The team has played at The Palace
of Auburn Hills, about 30 miles from downtown

Televisa had to comply with several upgrade


requests by the league.
Azteca built new football-only locker
rooms, installed new seats and boxes that
reduced its capacity from over 100,000, and
added a new wireless internet network. The
stadium still needs major renovations in
other areas: the parking lot is insufficient,
there are no escalators and the stadium
lights and most of the ramps are 50 years
old.

Altitude
Before the game, Mexico Citys altitude
of 7,380 feet above sea level played was a
cause for concern for both teams, who
arrived a day earlier to avoid the effects as
recommended by the NFL Mexico office.
Raiders wide receiver Michael Crabtree
had trouble breathing, and the Raiders called
a timeout for their players to catch a break
late in the game.
I mean you talk about the elements is
always a factor, but at the same time you
talk about resiliency and the coaches having us prepared, Raiders defensive end
Khalil Mack said. ... It was a weight that
we could fight through and youve seen that
throughout the finishing of the game and
especially in the fourth quarter.

direct, authoritative swings.
I told her, Youre 6-2. Theres no reason
you have to play short ball, Paglialunga
said. You are one of our best hitters.
Dreyer proved a quick study, as she was peppering shots like a true terminator Tuesday
night.
It doesnt hurt that Menlo has an aggressive
personality at the helm in Paglialunga. The
intensity of the Italian-born coach is a stark
contrast to the last coach to take Menlo to the
Nor Cal finals in 2013, the always reserve
Steve Cavella. But the Knights have embraced
their new coach, even though they sometimes
dont understand him when hes yelling at
them in his native Italian.
Marco, our new coach, helps us out a lot,
Sianna Houghton said. Hes really hard on us
in practice but in the end it is good because
were getting really far (in the postseason).

going on a 4-0 run to tie it 23-23 on a clutch
service ace by junior Grace Enright. Then after
Branson forced set point on sophomore
Amelia Brownes 14th and final kill, the
Knights went on a 3-0 run to close out, with a
Branson shot going long to spark the on-court
celebration for Menlo.
We just focused on what we had to do and
play our game, Xu said. Just focus on out side
of the net.
The Knights multi-tiered defense starts with
the Houghton sisters, senior libero Jessica
Houghton (14 digs) and sophomore outside
hitter Sianna Houghton (21 digs). At times,
the two seem like a beach volleyball tandem in
that they seamlessly cover any quadrant of the
floor in relative harmony.
That harmony carries over to the rest of the
team. Xu (10 digs) and fellow setter, junior
Kristen Sellers (nine digs) were in on digs all
night as well. Sellers turned in back-to-back
gems with Game 4 hanging in the balance at
22-18, producing two digs on consecutive
Branson smashes to prolong the rally before
junior opposite Ashley Dreyer scored the
point for the Knights with a block.
I think we know how to communicate,
Sianna Houghton said. Especially with my
sister because weve been playing with each
other so long. Its just instinct.
The Menlo back row was supported up front
by a tremendous blocking effort. The Knights
scored 12 blocks as a team, with senior middle
Mia Vandermeer leading the way with four.
Blocking was probably our deficiency at
the beginning of the season, Paglialunga
said, who has encouraged his blockers to cheat
to one side of the net to maximize their
chances for a big play.

TERRY BERNAL/DAILY JOURNAL

Menlo School used an all-around team effort


Tuesday against Branson to return to the
Northern California Division IV volleyball finals for the first time since 2013.
Above: Menlo opposite hitter Ashley Dreyer,
left, tools the Branson block for one of her
team-high 13 kills.
Right: Menlo libero Jessica Houghton races
in for one of her 14 match digs.
Meanwhile, the Menlo attack was remarkably balanced. Four players scored doubledigit kills, with Dreyer leading the way with a
team-high 13. Xu, Vandermeer and sophomore
outside Grace King each scored 10 kills apiece.
We have to work always as a team,
Paglialunga said. For this reason we have to
distribute the ball to a lot of different players
and, actually, this is our strength.
In the absence of that prototypical outside
hitter, Menlos Game 4 comeback was truly an

all-around team effort. With Branson leading


23-19, Vandermeer stoked the comeback with a
kill, senior middle Dea Dressel six kills and
two blocks followed with a block, and
Enright fired the ace to tie it 23-23. Then with
the match tied 24-24, Xu fired her 10th kill to
force match point.
Menlo does have one player taller than 6feet in the 6-2 left-hander Dreyer. The junior
has been a work in progress as a right-side
attacker. Earlier in the season, she relied pre-

No. 1-seed Menlo-Atherton is back in the


Northern California Division I finals for the
second straight year after sweeping No. 5
Turlock 25-15, 25-21, 25-12 Tuesday at M-A.
The Bears have swept through nine straight
sets to open the California Interscholastic
Federation tournament.
Senior setter Kirby Knapp 35 assists
again ran the offense through her two powerhouse attackers, senior outside Jacqueline
DiSanto (15 kills) and senior opposite Eliza
Grover (13 kills). Senior outside Kiana Sales
totaled a team-high 10 digs.
The Bears advance to the Nor Cal finals to
host No. 2 Oak Ridge-El Dorado Hills Saturday
at 7 p.m. The winner will play for the Division
I state championship the following Saturday at
Santiago Canyon College in Orange.

wide receivers Michael Crabtree and Seth


Roberts, and a defense that had considerable difficulty covering Texans tight end C.J.
Fiedorowicz.
All of that was a lot easier for Del Rio to take
after Carrs game-winning touchdown pass to
Amari Cooper with 4:53 remaining.
The Raiders then sealed the win a few moments
later when running back Latavius Murray gained
6 yards on a fourth-and-1 play after Del Rio initially debated punting.
You know youre putting yourself out there a
little bit, but youre believing in your guys, and
they delivered, Del Rio said. When you know
youre putting yourself out there, and then they
deliver, its satisfying.
NOTES: Del Rio was questioned about an
announcement earlier in the day from Oakland
mayor Libby Schaaf that a framework had been
agreed to on a potential stadium deal to keep the
team in Oakland. That doesnt have anything to
do with us and the team right now, Del Rio said.

According to the NCAA, the trainer was


employed by the athletics department from
fall 2009 through the spring of 2013 and
partially or wholly completed numerous
academic assignments for football studentathletes in numerous courses from 2011
into 2013. It said she did substantial coursework for two players and gave impermissible help to six others in 18 courses over
two academic years. The NCAA said the
woman continued to provide impermissible academic benefits to football studentathletes for a full year after she graduated
and was in her first year of law school elsewhere.
In all, the NCAA said, three athletes
would up playing while ineligible, one during the 2012 season and the other two the
following season, when the Irish went 9-4.
Kelly said he knew the vacated wins were
a possibility since Notre Dame officials
met with the NCAA several months ago. He

Wednesday Nov. 23, 2016

said he had hoped reasonable people would


come to a reasonable decision.
If doing the right thing means that
youve got to put an asterisk next to these
games, thats fine with me, he said. We
still beat Oklahoma. We still beat Wake
Forest, we still beat all those teams, so you
can put an asterisk next to it. If that makes
you feel better, then thats fine with me.
He said he doesnt believe he has any culpability in the case and has no reason to
believe he wont be back as Notre Dames
coach next season.
I think you guys are confusing this statement with the win-loss record, said Kelly,
whose struggling team has a 4-7 record
ahead of Saturdays game at No. 12 USC. A
win-loss record is always under scrutiny at
Notre Dame, and it should be. Thats part of
it.
The report doesnt name the players
involved, but stems from an investigation
that began in August 2014 , when the university suspended defensive lineman Ishaq
Williams, receiver DaVaris Daniels, linebacker Kendall Moore and cornerback
KeiVarae Russell, who werent allowed to
play that season. The school later benched

15

safety Eilar Hardy, who was allowed to


return in midseason. Russell returned and
played for the Irish last season. Quarterback
Everett Golson was suspended for the fall
2013 semester for what he termed poor
judgment on a test.
It was the first major NCAA violation for
Notre Dame since 1999, when the school
was placed on probation and had two scholarships taken away because of the relationship between Irish players and former
booster Kimberly Dunbar, who embezzled
more than $1.2 million from her employer
and then lavished the players with gifts,
trips and money. The NCAA also lists two
other major infractions : in 1971 for the
improper administration of financial aid
and in 1954 for improper tryouts.
If the NCAA erases all 21 Notre Dame victories, the Irish would fall from the school
with the second-most wins in NCAA history behind Michigan (935) to fifth place
with 875. That would place them behind
Texas (892), Nebraska (889), Ohio State
(885) and tied with Alabama (875) heading
into the game against the Trojans, where
they are 17-point underdogs.

work, it takes communication, it
takes discipline and it takes some
talent, and I think we have enough
talent to build a good team and end
up in Russia 2018. Its going to take
a little time, a little bit patience and
a lot of hard work.
Arena first took over as national
team coach after the 1998 World Cup
and led the U.S. to a 71-30-29
record. His contract runs through the
2018 World Cup.
I dont view it as Bruce 2, but sort
of Bruce 2.0, USSF President Sunil
Gulati said. I think hes got far
more experience than he did when he
had the national team the first goround. Hes proven and re-proven
many times at all levels of the game
in the United States that hes an
extraordinarily capable and successful coach.
A wisecracking Brooklynite
known for blunt talk and sarcasm,
Arena coached the University of
Virginia to five NCAA titles from
1978-95, then led D.C. United to
titles in Major League Soccers first
two seasons before losing in the
1998 final. He guided the Americans
to the teams best World Cup finish
since 1930, a 1-0 loss to Germany
in the 2002 quarterfinals.
Arena was let go after the teams
first-round elimination by Ghana in
2006. He coached the New York Red
Bulls of MLS from July 2006 to
November 2007, then was hired the
following August by the Galaxy. He
led the team to MLS titles in 2011,
2012 and 2014.
Arena was inducted into the U.S.
National Soccer Hall of Fame in
2010.
I think 10 years later Im better

prepared for this job than I was in


1998 and 2002 and ultimately 2006,
so Im hopeful the experiences I had
are going to benefit the program,
he said. One of the things you learn
from experience is you see things a
lot clearer and a lot quicker than you
did previously, and the game has
slowed down a bit, where I can see as
a coach in my position how things
are happening on the field.
Hired by Gulati in 2011,
Klinsmann coached the U.S. to the
2013 CONCACAF Gold Cup title
and the second round of the 2014
World Cup, where the Americans
lost to Belgium 2-1 in extra time.
Gulati cited three disappointments that led to Klinsmanns firing: failing to qualify for the 2017
Confederations Cup, the under-23
teams failure to reach this years
Olympics and the poor start to the
final round of qualifying in the
North and Central American and
Caribbean region.
The U.S. would have reached the
Confederations Cup by winning last
years Gold Cup, but Jamaica upset
the Americans in the semifinals, and
the U.S. lost a playoff to Mexico.
Really starting at the Gold Cup,
weve had some very up-and-down
results, Gulati said. The Gold Cup
was a big disappointment for everyone: for Jurgen, for the players, for
our fans.
Two weeks ago, Gulati said he
expected Klinsmann to keep his job
through the 2018 World Cup. But
Mexico won 2-1 in Columbus,
Ohio, the first U.S. home loss in
qualifying since 2001. That was followed by a 4-0 defeat last week in
Costa Rica, the Americans fourgoal loss in qualifying since 1980.
None of us expected the two
results we got, Gulati said.

Leftover cranberry sauce makes great pancakes


By Melissa dArabian
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

In their natural form, cranberries are


quite healthy, full of vitamin C and
fiber and packing just 4 grams of sugar
per cup. In fact, they only become
nutritionally worrying when they get
doused with sugar around the holidays.
My answer, of course, is to make
your own cranberry sauce this holiday.
Its incredibly easy and it allows you to
cut the sugar content in half without
anyone missing it.
So instead of heading down the
canned food aisle, pop over to the produce section (youre going there to buy
potatoes and green beans, anyway,
right?) and pick up a bag of fresh cranberries. Follow the recipe on the bag
(usually something along the lines of
boiling the berries with water and
sugar), but cut the suggested amount of
sugar in half (or by a quarter if you cant
come to terms with half).
For extra flavor and natural sweetness, I sometimes add orange zest or
segments to my cranberry sauce, as
well as a vanilla bean. But frankly, it
almost doesnt matter what I do to the
cranberry sauce, as its presence on the
table is merely symbolic to my family.
My French husband didnt grow up eating cranberry sauce, so he never developed a taste for it. And my kids arent
fans, either.
The result? I always have leftover
cranberry sauce. Forever a budget cook,
I feel compelled to give those leftovers
new life. Ill add it to my favorite apple

crumble or muffin recipe, spoon it over


yogurt or into oatmeal for breakfast, or
use it as a base for a spicy-sweet salsa
or chutney.
Perhaps my kids favorite way to
rework cranberry sauce is in pancakes.
I mix cranberry sauce with oats and flax
seeds to make a tasty treat that my family loves on winter weekend mornings,
when I let a little extra sugar slide. I use
my leftover homemade cranberry sauce
in this recipe, but it works just fine
with the canned stuff, even the jellied
variety (complete with can-shaped
grooves on the sides).

CRANBERRY SAUCE,
OAT AND FLAX PANCAKES
This recipe is easily made gluten-free
by substituting a gluten-free flour mix
for the all-purpose flour called for. Your
best bet is with flour mixes labeled as a
1-to-1 substitute for wheat flour.
Start to finish: 20 minutes
Makes 10 pancakes
1/2 cup oat flour (or 3/4 cup oats,
pulsed in food processor until finely
ground)
1/4 cup almond flour (also called
almond meal)
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
3 tablespoons flax meal (ground
flaxseed)
1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 cup plain low-fat Greek yogurt
2/3 cup prepared cranberry sauce
(whole berry or jellied)

1 teaspoon orange zest


1 egg
2/3 cup low-fat milk (dairy or nondairy)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Heat a nonstick griddle over medium
while preparing the batter. Heat the
oven to 200 F.
In a medium bowl, whisk together
the oat flour, almond flour, all-purpose
flour, baking powder, baking soda,
salt, flax meal and cinnamon.
In a second medium bowl, briskly
whisk together the yogurt and cranberry sauce to break up the cranberry
sauce. Add the orange zest, egg, milk
and vanilla and whisk until smooth
(not counting chunks from any whole
cranberries). Pour the wet ingredients
into the dry mixture and gently stir
with a whisk, incorporating all the
ingredients, being careful not to overmix.
Lightly mist the hot griddle with
cooking spray. Using a 1/4-cup measuring cup, scoop batter onto the prepared griddle, being careful not to
crowd the griddle. Cook until the pancake batter is nearly dry, 2 to 3 minutes, then flip and cook for another 1 to
2 minutes. Transfer to a heat-safe plate
and set in the oven to keep warm.
Repeat with remaining batter. Serve
with desired toppings.

Tips for a no-fuss Thanksgiving


By Kim Cook
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Preparing a Thanksgiving feast ranks


high on the entertaining stress-o-meter.
Expectations, traditions and a home full of
guests can make even the most seasoned
host lose sleep.
But dont let the anticipatory list-making,
house-fluffing and food preparing become
more tiring than it needs to be. Some expert
advice and helpful products can make
Thanksgiving entertaining more stylish,
fun and fret-free.
Kevin Sharkey, executive creative director
at Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia,
begins with a why-didnt-I-think-of-that
idea:
If you have performance anxiety about
the day, what if you (threw the party) the
night before or after? Sometimes I think the
only reason to have Thanksgiving is to
have sandwiches the next day. So have a
great lunch or cocktail party instead, he
suggests.
Guests are just looking for a convivial
atmosphere, so dont bother with fancy
appetizers. As Sharkey points out, guests
wont remember the homemade potato chips
you slaved over; theyll remember the
stressed-out you.
Serve simple things on interesting plates
or in silver bowls, and it all looks special.
For example, West Elm has Shanna Murrays
gold-penned bisque stoneware salad plates.
(www.westelm.com)
Instead of a complicated bar, come up with
one fun drink to serve as a showpiece, then
add a few bottles of wine and sparkling
water.
If youre doing a casual
Thanksgiving meal or a lunch, consider setting out an interesting variety of craft beers,
as well as vegetable juices and iced tea for
the non-drinkers.
Better Homes and Gardens has suggestions for make-ahead nibblers such as mini

gruyere puffs that can be made a month


ahead and frozen, or mini meatballs in a
tangy apricot sauce that can be re-warmed in
a slow cooker during cocktail hour.
(www.bhg.com)
At Realsimple.com, youll find lots of
make-ahead appetizers, salads, sides, breads
and desserts for Thanksgiving.
If you do plan to host on Thanksgiving
day, keep the menu simple.
No one wants 14 different things. And
dont be ashamed to get certain things from
a store, or to ask people to bring something, Sharkey says.
Oma Ford, executive editor at Better
Homes & Gardens magazine, says shes not
usually a potluck fan but its actually a
wonderful
way
to
approach
the
Thanksgiving feast. We often spend the
holiday with friends who usually make the
turkey and desserts and then ask all their
guests to bring a side dish they couldnt live
without. The sides are really the fun, interesting part of the meal, and with this
approach none of the guests feels like they
missed out on a favorite or traditional element of the feast.
Does a friend make awesome mashed potatoes? Is a relative the pie person? Do you
have a nearby market that makes yummy
stuffing? Ask, order and lessen your workload.
For delectable treats you can pre-order,
check out Williams-Sonomas desserts from
various specialists, including Platine
Bakery and Taurit Or. (www.williams-sonoma.com)
Serving everything buffet style takes
another fussy component off the table, so to
speak. Make sure there are comfortable
places for everyone to perch with their
plates, but put all the food and drinks in central locations.
A multiple-pot slow cooker can hold
stews, soups and savory vegetables. Serveyourself beverage dispensers allow guests
to refill at will. (www.kohls.com)

TRUMP
Continued from page 1

Cider typically is lower in alcohol than wine, averaging 5 to 7 percent, but has enough acid and tannins to do the job of a
Thanksgiving beverage.

Want to drink like a Pilgrim? Drink cider


By Michelle Locke
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Puzzled over which wine pairs well


with brined turkey, candied yams, garlic
mashed potatoes, challah stuffing, cranberry sauce and, possibly, tofu turkey?
Why not take another bite at the apple,
and think cider instead?
A cold glass of hard cider has been the
hot beverage for a while now, with sales
growing exponentially. And while
many U.S.-produced ciders have leaned
toward catering to the American sweet
tooth, drier styles are emerging that
provide a good underpinning for the rich
and often oddly contrasting
excesses
of
the
traditional
Thanksgiving.
I always think about Thanksgiving
as an endurance meal and cider works
really well, says Dan Pucci, cider director of Wassail, a New York City restaurant specializing in cider pairings.
Cider typically is lower in alcohol
than wine, averaging 5 to 7 percent, but
has enough acid and tannins to do the
job of a Thanksgiving beverage.
Meaning, it can cleanse and refresh your
palate to get you ready for the next bite.
Bonus point: Youre drinking like the

believed it will help breed trust in the
department.
It is so critical this kind of transparency exists for a community, she
said.
The departments request for
approval to wear the cameras comes in
the wake of a San Mateo County Civil
Grand Jury report recommending all
local law enforcement consider adopting the technology to be more forthcoming with information detailing
interactions between officers and residents.
The report was issued following a
series of violent encounters between
police and civilians across the nation,
resulting in enhanced criticism of
departments, specifically regarding
use of force.
Departments requiring body cameras
experienced a reduction in public complaints against officers as well as
fewer cases of force being used, according to a city report.
Colson said she supported adopting
the technology in hopes the cameras
invite similar outcomes locally. City
Attorney Kathleen Kane noted though
the police department already has an
outstanding relationship with most
residents.
We have an extraordinarily wellbehaved police department, she said.
Purchasing, maintaining and storing
the equipment is expected to cost the
department between $30, 000 to

Pilgrims, who were avid hard cider fans.


Picking ciders poses a few challenges. Since the cider surge is relatively new, labeling rules and regulations
still are being worked out, so you dont
have as much information to work with
as you find on U.S. wine labels. Some
labels will tell you if a cider is made
from eating apples or traditional cider
apples, known as bitter sweets or bitter
sharps, or a blend of both.
There are exceptions, of course, but
generally speaking ciders made with
cider fruit tend to have more structure,
presence and palate, says Pucci. They
also develop more secondary flavors
and are earthier. Ciders made from eating
apples are going to generally have a
more primary fruit profile and are easier
drinking.
A good choice for an aperitif is a
Downeast Cider House Original Blend,
made from Red Delicious, McIntosh,
Cortland and Gala apples. Based in
Boston, Downeast strikes a balance
between super sweet and bone dry and is
a good sipper by itself, says Pucci.
For the main course, look for something with body and richness to match
the intensity of the various dishes.
Possibilities include Vermonts Eden

Sparkling Dry Cider, made with traditional heirloom apples and cider varieties. Half of the blend is Kingston
Black, a British cider variety. Eden
Sparkling Dry is 8.5 percent alcohol by
volume and has an in-bottle secondary
fermentation similar to Champagne.
Another choice is Dragon Head
Kingston Black, which comes from
apple-rich Washington state, home to a
thriving cider industry.
For a mainstream, easy-to-find pick
you could try Strongbow Gold Apple
from the United Kingdom. The website
has a handy page where you can enter
your ZIP code to get the closest store.
Looking at U.S. producers, Pucci recommends Farnum Hill from New
Hampshire. Very dry, its got a lot of
texture to it, a lot of acid. Its widely
available in most of the country. And,
most importantly, its pretty delicious.
Dessert calls for sweeter wines and
here you might veer off into an apple
wine. From Washington state theres
Finnrivers Spirited Apple Wine, which
is fortified with apple brandy and aged
with oak. This is stronger than a cider,
at 18.5 percent alcohol, so should be
served in smaller glasses.

$50,000 annually, according to a city


report.
Wollman said he favored purchasing
the equipment, then working with representatives of the police union to
agree on a use policy.
He noted there has been reticence
expressed by some members of the
department regarding requiring officers to wear the cameras. But once the
cameras are on, Wollman said he has
faith the community will be well
served.
I believe that body-worn cameras
will change police and public encounters, he said. I think it is important
for the transparency and legitimacy of
our police department.
As officials move ahead, Kane noted
the department will need to develop a
detailed approach to defining the
amount of time footage captured by the
cameras is stored, and assuring it is
kept private to address confidentiality
concerns.
Kane said it is reasonable to expect
using the equipment will result in an
increase in requests for public information from residents, which could ultimately require the city to hire a new
staff member to accommodate the
uptick in demand.
Colson noted though the processing
of requests for camera footage or public information would not result in
officers being pulled from their patrol.
Ultimately, Wollman said he
believed using the cameras will serve
as a sign of the departments commitment to being open with residents.
It creates a statement about who we
are and what is important to us and creating that transparency with the com-

munity is important, he said.


Police departments in Atherton,
Belmont, Hillsborough, Foster City
and Menlo Park use such cameras and
South San Francisco recently approved
them. Daly City, East Palo Alto,
Redwood City and San Mateo are
exploring the technology.
In other business at the meeting, the
council received feedback from a community survey regarding support for a
potential tax measure to be used for
financing construction of a new community center.
Of the more than 300 residents surveyed by pollster Brian Godbe, 62 percent of likely voters in the fall election next year would favor a hypothetical revenue measure to support essential city services and facilities.
Support among a similar group for the
same measure in an election the following year would jump by 3 percent.
Officials commissioned the poll as
part of an ongoing discussion regarding potential pursuit of a parcel tax or
bond paying largely to the rejuvenation of the citys Recreation Center at
850 Burlingame Ave.
Those supporting the initiative
claim the existing facility is outdated
and due for renovations, but insufficient funds exist in the citys limited
budget to address the project.
More than $60 million worth of
projects, including construction of a
new recreation center, fixes to city
parks and bike paths, infrastructure
improvements
near
Hoover
Elementary School and more have
been discussed by officials as efforts
which could be financed through the
potential tax revenue.

port from extremist alt-right groups.


The president-elects remarks in an interview with The
New York Times were tweeted out by Times reporters.
Trump reversed his campaign trail vow to put Clinton in
jail and seek a special prosecutor, saying he wanted to
move on to his agenda of creating jobs, repealing President
Barack Obamas health care law and cracking down on people entering the country illegally. His comments were a
firm suggestion to Republicans who control both houses of
Congress to do the same and abandon years of probes into
the former secretary of state.
She went through a lot and suffered greatly in many
ways, Trump said, according to the Times. Going after her,
he added, is just not something that I feel very strongly
about. He predicted his supporters would not be disappointed because the Trump administration would save our
country in other ways.
But there was some teeth-gnashing in conservative circles.
If Trumps appointees do not follow through on his
pledge to investigate Clinton for what he claimed were
criminal violations, it would be a betrayal of his promise
to the American people to drain the swamp of out-of-control corruption in Washington, said the group Judicial
Watch.
In the interview, Trump also:
Disavowed white nationalist sympathizers who celebrated his election during a conference in Washington over
the weekend. He told the Times, I disavow and condemn
them.
Said he saw no problems in working out any potential
conflicts of interest between his companies and his White
House post.
In theory I could run my business perfectly and then run
the country perfectly. Theres never been a case like this,
he said. But he also said he was phasing that out now and
passing business operations on to his grown children.
Said he thinks theres some connectivity between
humans and climate change, a reversal from his campaign
trail declaration that man-made climate change is a hoax.
The wide-ranging interview came after Trump adviser
Kellyanne Conway suggested that what he said on the campaign trail may well depart from what he does as president.
Trump, she told MSNBCs Morning Joe, is thinking of
many different things as he prepares to become the president of the United States, and things that sound like the
campaign arent among them.

appreciate staff being as broad as possible.
Mondays decision confirmed that the
Worker Resource Center and former
Kinkos sites will one day provide
affordable housing as well as parking
for its bustling downtown. The city has
been active in considering a variety of
means to address the housing crisis and
councilmembers targeted these two
properties as having the potential to
house those who work for the community such as city employees, teachers, police and firefighters.
Developers interested in working
with the city will be told to prioritize
maximizing affordable housing
although its broadly defined as those
making up to 120 percent of the areas
median income and that at a minimum, the existing 235 parking spaces
must be replaced. Consultants have
suggested the city could need up to 600
new parking spaces to meet the future
demands of its bustling downtown.
City officials anticipate potentially
receiving options from both private
and nonprofit developers and would ideally prefer to retain ownership of the
land while offering a ground lease.
Depending upon the amount of affordable units or parking spaces, the city
may be asked to make financial contributions to help offset the high cost of
building.
In recent times, the council has been
divided on exactly how or whether it

Carlos over the last three days.
Most boxes include a whole chicken,
as well as a Safeway gift cards which
could be redeemed for a turkey, along
with side dishes such as stuffing, cranberry sauce and gravy collected through
donations from local residents and businesses.
Executive Director Terri Boesch said
she has greatly appreciated all the contributions from donors, as well as the
help offered by volunteers to organize
and distribute the food.
Its humbling, we are happy to help
the community and Im overwhelmed
with the support, she said. It makes
me smile. But I still wish we could do
more.
Though much cheer and goodwill is
spread through the hard work dedicated
to making the food distribution possible, Boesch noted it can be incredibly
challenging too as the center is not able
to accommodate each request for food.
Recipients must sign up days in
advance to get a Thanksgiving meal and

should take certain steps to address the


affordability crisis. For instance, the
defeated prospect of rent control during
the election drew starkly contrasted
opinions from the community and officials. But most have agreed that tending
to the supply side by promoting creation of new units is an important step
the city can take.
Councilwoman Maureen Freschet was
taken aback by the idea that developers
may submit proposals that only meet
the citys bare minimum of having 15
percent of the units set aside as affordable an existing requirement per San
Mateos inclusionary zoning policy.
This is our opportunity to do something for our community. We know we
need affordable housing and to have
something built that might only have
15 percent affordable housing, to me
does not represent the vision I think
this council had, Freschet said.
Another option brought forth at the
11th hour was to have the council consider making space for a preschool or
day care. Child development advocates
spoke in favor of the idea, but after city
staff noted there are extra state requirements such as having outdoor play
space, the council decided not to make
it an explicit provision in its request
for qualifications.
Other public speakers included residents from the Central Neighborhood
who expressed frustration that the city
would consider new residences and
parking before addressing their traffic
woes.
Our neighborhood suffers under a
tremendous yoke of traffic and were at
the breaking point of gridlock, said
Michael Weinhauer, who later added

its also important to understand the


housing problem is a regional and citywide problem. Its not something we
should try to fix by putting it in one
neighborhood.
Erica Powell, another neighborhood
representative, agreed adding shed prefer the affordable units be set aside for
those who serve the community
because local taxpayers through city
funds may end up subsidizing construction costs.
Affordable housing developments
targeted to households earning 60 percent or less of the local average and
which receive tax credit financing still
typically require an additional
$100,000 to $200,000 construction
subsidy per unit. Creating a single
parking space can range between
$45,000 and $90,000, according to a
staff report.
But the city is well versed in partnering with nonprofit developers and
leveraging assets to create affordable
housing. On Monday, it approved
working with Bridge Housing on
another development at Bay Meadows.
Interim Deputy City Manager Kathy
Kleinbaum noted affordable housing
and parking spaces are not typically
provided by the free market and providing a broad set of criteria for developers proposal will ideally produce a variety of financing options.
Staff plans to release the request for
qualifications in January, receive proposals by April and potentially select a
developer in May. Any planning
process would undergo the normal public review and Kleinbaum reassured the
community there will be further opportunities for people to weigh in.

those who walk up to the center with


hopes of taking home food without first
registering may not be served, she said.
Boesch said even though she can help
make the holidays brighter for hundreds
she will struggle while grappling with
the emotions brought on by the handful
of those she cannot accommodate.
Its heartbreaking at times, she
said. But we have to be fair.
Beyond the difficulties associated
with an inability to feed each person
who seeks help pulling together a
Thanksgiving meal, Boesch said there
are also challenges associated with
managing the uptick in requests to volunteer during the holiday season.
She said roughly 60 people have
donated their time and effort to running
the food distribution center over the
past few days which she called an incredible outpouring of support.
Approximately 15 volunteers buzzed
around CALL Primrose during the final
hours of the Thanksgiving push
Tuesday, Nov. 22, as they organized the
last round of boxes to be given away.
Kris Hurley, a Hillsborough resident
who has volunteered at the center for the
past six years, said she appreciates seeing the rise in interest from charitablyminded locals each winter.

Its very heartwarming to see how


much support we receive, she said. But
we also have to remember there is need
year-round.
Boesch has said the affordability crisis on the Peninsula led to a rise in the
amount of people seeking general meal
assistance, as about 40,000 pounds of
food will be given away to 1,000 recipients this year.
Many who come to the center for the
Thanksgiving meal are those who
depend on additional food support over
the rest of the year, said Boesch, who
welcomed familiar faces with a glowing
smile and greeting.
Hurley, who has volunteered roughly
30 hours over the past few weeks in
preparation for the giveaway, said she
appreciates seeing the growth among
those who rely on the annual charity.
Its great to know people are taking
food home and putting it in their familys belly, she said.
Jack Wagner, a Millbrae resident who
coordinates picking up food from local
companies and drops it off at the
Burlingame center, said he enjoys the
collaboration between all the volunteers who make the holiday meal program possible.
Everyone here is very good. I enjoy
it. It makes sense to me, he
said.
Wagner and Hurley both
agreed the centers efficiency
is enhanced through the coordination and oversight from
Boesch.
Terri does a fantastic job,
Wagner said. Everyone falls
into line.
Hurley said the dedication
and companionship at the
center is a reflection of the
character of a community
concerned with the condition
of those in need.
We are fortunate to have a
community looking out and
caring for each other, she
said.
Such a commitment forges
a close relationship between
those at CALL Primrose and
the people who lean on the
center for additional assistance.
We offer food and nourishment as well as friendship and
companionship,
Hurley
said.

CITATION TO APPEAR:
(CASE No. A16342 & A16343).
Superior Court of California, County of
San Mateo.
In the Matter of the Petition of J. Dolores
Torres Jimenez, On behalf of SANTIAGO MARTINEZ and DAISY MARTINEZ
CASILLAS.
Minors, for Freedom from Parental Custody and Control.
The People of the State of Calfornia. To
Santiago Martinez Cruz. By order of this
court, you are hereby cited and required
to appear before the judge presiding in
Department 5 of this court on 12-19.
2016 at 9:00am, then and there to show
cause, if any you have, why Santiago
Martinez and Daisy Martinez Casillas,
minors should not be declared free from
your parental control according to the petition on file herein to free the minor for
adoption.
The address of the court is: Juvenile
Branch, 222 Paul Scannell Drive, San
Mateo, CA 94002.
The following information concerns rights
and procedures that relate to this proceeding for the termination of custody
and control of Santiago Martinez and
Daisy Martinez Casillas as set forth in
Section 7822 of the Family Code.
1. At the beginning of the proceeding the
court will consider whether or not the interests of Santiago Martinez and Daisy
Martinez Casillas do require such protection, the court will appoint counsel to represent them, whether or not they are able
to afford counsel. Santiago Martinez and
Daisy Martinez Casillas will not be present in court unless they so request or the
court so orders.
2. If a parent of Santiago Martinez and
Daisy Martinez Casillas appears without
counsel and is unable to afford counsel,
the court must appoint counsel for the
parent, unless the parent knowingly and
intelligently waives the right the right to
be represented by counsel. The court
will not appoint the same counsel to represent the minors and their parent.
3. The court may appoint either the public defender or private counsel. If private
counsel is appointed, he or she will receive a reasonable sum for compensation and expenses, the amount of which
will be determined by the court. The
amount must be paid by the real parties
in interest, but not by the minor, in such
proportions, as the court believes to be
just. If, however, the courts find that any
of the real parties in interest cannot afford counsel, the amount will be paid by
the court.
4. The court may continue the proceeding for not more than 30 days as necessary to appoint counsel and to enable
counsel to become acquainted with the
case.
