As meteorologists predict one of the most severe storms

since the drought began plaguing the state will touch down
in Northern California this weekend, San Mateo County
communities are preparing for the atmospheric river to
drench the Peninsula.
After the new year kicked off with welcomed rainfall, forecasters are now warning of an intense wintry weather system with the potential to bring flooding, high winds and
downed power lines over the weekend. Residents shouldnt
expect sunny skies any time soon as eight days of rain are
expected to continue through next week.

Eight ways job market has

evolved over Obamas eight years
REUTERS
Barack Obama participates in an interview with Vox at Blair House in Washington, D.C.
Obamas final jobs report:

Big pay gain, slower hiring
By Christopher S. Rugaber
WASHINGTON Americans paychecks

rose in December at the fastest pace in more
than seven years as steady hiring and low
unemployment led some businesses to pay
more to attract and keep workers.
Employers added 156,000 jobs, a decent
total that shows that moderate hiring
remains sustainable 7 1/2 years after the
recovery from the Great Recession began.
The report provided the last major snapshot
of the economy President-elect Donald
Trump will inherit from President Barack
Obama.
The figures also reflect the job markets
vast improvement from the deep layoffs and
surging unemployment rate that prevailed
when Obama took office in January 2009.
Last month, the jobless rate was just 4.7
percent, up from a nine-year low of 4.6 percent in November, but far below the painful
10 percent peak of October 2009.
Employers have added jobs for 75 straight
months the longest streak on record.
Even so, the job market remains a mixed
picture. Hiring slowed last year, with the
economy adding 2. 2 million jobs, the
smallest full-year gain since 2012. Job
growth averaged 180, 000 a month
enough to lower the unemployment rate
over time but down from 229,000 in

2015.
And many people, particularly men without a college education, have suffered as the
job market has shifted away from blue collar
work in manufacturing and mining toward
industries that either require higher skills,
like information technology, or that pay
less, such as health care. The proportion of
men in their prime working years who either
have a job or are looking for one has continued to drop.
In addition, the number of part-time workers who would prefer full-time work, while
declining, remains well above its pre-recession level.
Those weak spots will likely challenge
Trump as much as they did his predecessor.
More people are back at work than at any
point since the recession, noted Jed
Kolko, chief economist at the job site
Indeed. However, Trump will inherit an
economy thats riding high but faces longterm challenges. Fewer adults are at work
than before the recession, manufacturing is
lagging despite an uptick in December and
the acceleration in wage growth, while great
for workers, could raise inflation fears.
Hourly pay jumped 2.9 percent from a year
earlier, a welcome change from the sluggish
wage growth that has been a longstanding
weak spot in the economic recovery.
A SMALLER SHARE OF
AMERICANS HAVE JOBS
college degrees. But it also points to rising

demand for high-skilled workers.
Hiring has been solid yet still hasnt kept up

with population growth. The proportion of
Americans with jobs essentially the flip
side of the unemployment rate dropped
a full percentage point under Obama. An
aging society has turbocharged retirements.
And many workers, especially less-educated
men, have become discouraged about
finding jobs with decent pay and have
stopped looking.
SLOW PAY GROWTH

Over the past year, average hourly pay has
risen 2.9 percent, the healthiest increase in
seven years. Yet for most of the recovery
since the Great Recession, wages have
struggled, growing closer to 2 percent. In a
more robust economy, pay gains are
typically close to 3.5 percent a year.
AUTOMATION AND
GLOBALIZATION ERASE ROUTINE
JOBS
Thanks in part to strong hiring gains at

restaurants, bars, hotels and retailers, more
Americans have part-time jobs. In many
cases, they prefer it that way.The number of
part-timers who would prefer full-time work
has fallen nearly 30 percent under Obama.
And the number of people working parttime by choice a much larger number
has grown 13 percent in the past eight years.
Routine work on factory assembly lines and

as office clerks has declined, in some cases
lost to computers, robots and inexpensive
imported goods. Factory jobs have fallen 2.4
percent since January 2009. The number of
people working as office administrators is
down 2.5 percent.
MORE HIGH- AND LOW-PAYING JOBS
Those routine jobs typically paid middleincome wages. As they have faded, both
higher- and lower-paying jobs have grown
faster. The number of jobs in computer
networking and software development has
soared 42 percent in eight years. Data
analysis has enjoyed job growth of 18
percent. On the lower-paying end, jobs at
restaurants and hotels have jumped 19
percent.
MOST NEW JOBS GO

TO COLLEGE GRADUATES
The ranks of employed college graduates
jumped 22 percent under Obama, while the
number of employed people with only a
high school degree fell 4 percent.That partly
reflects demographic trends: Older, lesseducated Americans retire and are replaced
by younger people more likely to have
MORE PART-TIMERS
MORE ARE WORKING

TEMP AND GIG JOBS
Businesses, under pressure to grow profits
and counter cheaper competition overseas,
have sought to hold down labor costs.
Temporary hiring has been one way to do
that. Temp jobs skyrocketed 52 percent
during Obamas administration, to nearly 3
million, including at auto plants and
hospitals.
YOUNG WORKERS COME

IN AS ELDERLY RETIRE
The influx of the millennial generation, the
largest in the U.S., is changing the face of the
working world. They are replacing retiring
baby boomers, usually at lower pay, which
has held down overall wages throughout
the recovery. Millennials have also spurred
more companies to adopt tech-style
workplaces, with open floor plans, bean-bag
chairs, and free food.

November 16, 1912 - December 19, 2016

Olga Tesauro, a resident of Redwood City for 55 years and
most recently of San Mateo, passed peacefully on December
19, 2016 at the age of 104.
Olga was born on November 16, 1912 in Galveston, Texas to
Ranieri and Germana Mori, both of Verciano, Italy, near the
walled mediaeval city of Lucca. She was the middle of three
sisters, who were close to her in age Elena the older and Gloria the younger and
always close to her heart. When Olga was quite young, the family moved to Lucca,
where Olga spent much of her childhood and young adulthood, eventually studying
education and becoming a primary school teacher during the era when the teaching
methods of Maria Montessori were coming to the fore in Italy.
Just ahead of Benito Mussolinis decision to enter World War II on the side of the Axis,
the family left Italy and returned to the United States upon Olgas recommendation,
settling in San Francisco. At one point when her mother was having eye trouble, Olga
located an ophthalmologist who could speak Italian. She and the handsome Italian
physician found many common interests, as, like Olga, Dr. Nicholas Tesauro was born in
the States but grew up in Italy. In time, Nicky proposed to Olga at the edge of Spreckels
Lake in Golden Gate Park, by the classical temple.
The couple had three daughters; and, with her parents and sisters nearby to help,
Olga dedicated her time and devotion to her husband and children. In 1954, the family
moved to Redwood City, where they joined St. Pius Church, in the early years when
Mass was still celebrated in the old farmhouse. Ever the teacher, Olga oversaw her
girls Catholic school education, and also made sure that they were exposed to the arts,
especially music. She spent her wealth of years enjoying her family, taking special
pleasure in watching her grandsons grow up.
Since 2007, Olga has been a resident of Atria Hillsdale assisted living, where she was
loved by all. The family is deeply grateful to the staff there for their devotion to her,
and for keeping her healthy and happy; and to the residents for their friendship and
kindness.
Olga was predeceased by beloved Nicholas and beloved daughter Tullia, and by her dear
sisters. Left with fond memories of their life with her, and inspired by her example of
faith, love, and service, are her beloved daughters and sons-in-law, Johanna Tesauro
(James Moran) of Half Moon Bay and Marilyn Tesauro Young (Barry Young) of Los
Angeles; and her cherished grandsons, Nicholas Young of Los Angeles and Michael
Young of Seattle. She will also be greatly missed by all whose lives she touched with
her caring and compassion.

State bracing for

storm that closed
Yosemite Valley
By Scott Smith
FRESNO Photographer and rock

climber Josh Hilling who lives in the
foothills below Yosemite National Park
spent recent days chopping wood and
stocking up on groceries, ahead of whats
expected to be the strongest storm to hit
Central California in years.
Rangers at Yosemite on Friday closed all
roads leading to the parks valley floor, a
major attraction for visitors from around
the world eager to view gushing waterfalls
and gaze up at towering granite rock formations such as El Capitan and Half Dome.
If you live long enough in this canyon,
you experience lots of natural disasters
floods, fires, rock falls, said Hilling, from
his familys home in El Portal.
An enormous storm in 1997 flooded
Yosemite Valley, closing the park for two
months and washing out roads, lodging and
campgrounds. This weekends storm is not
expected to be as severe.
The closure is expected at least through
Sunday. Other parts of the park remain
open, but rangers caution visitors to be
aware of ice and falling debris on the roads.
Early Friday, rangers stood watch for
flooding along the Merced River, a major
river flowing through the valley, park
spokeswoman Jamie Richards said.
Were prepared, she said, adding that
theyre accustomed to life in a giant canyon
with frequent, rain, snow, ice and rock falls.
We have a lot of things we deal with on a
frequent basis.
Ran g ers are k eep i n g an es p eci al l y
cl o s e ey e o n Po h o n o Bri dg e, wh i ch
crosses the Merced River. Flooding there
starts when the water level reaches 10
feet, but the watermark hit just 4 feet
Thursday, Richards said.

Rangers dont expect damage nearly as
bad as in the 1997 flood, having moved
buildings away from the river and increased
drainage, Richards said.
Elsewhere, the onslaught of storms sent
residents in California and Nevada scrambling to gear up for heavy rain and expecting swollen rivers and toppled trees this
weekend.
On the coast in Santa Cruz where up to
a foot of rain could fall in places officials have set up sand bag stations for residents.
Were giving them a shovel and the sand
and showing them how to fill them up,
said Jason Hoppin, a Santa Cruz County
spokesman. We havent seen rain like this
in a long time.
This stormy weather comes as California
enters its sixth year of drought. Each storm
is welcomed, but officials say several more
like this are needed to replenish depleted
groundwater supplies, forcing some residents to live on bottled water.
The strong wet season began in October
with more rain falling than in three decades,
mostly in Northern California. Los Angeles
is experiencing the wettest winter in six
years, forecasters say.
Forecasters anticipate the storm surge
stretching from Hawaii in the Pacific
called an atmospheric river could dump
up to 8 inches of rain from Sonoma to
Monterey counties. Forecasters warn of
mudslides on the Central Coast hit hard this
summer by scarring wildfires.
The storms mild temperatures will drive
up the snowline to above 9, 000 feet
throughout the Sierra Nevada, causing
runoff in the lower elevations, said Zach
Tolby, a meteorologist with the National
Weather Service in Reno.
Officials: Foreign government

may have breached health data
By Jonathan J. Cooper
SACRAMENTO A foreign government

may have been behind a cyber breach of
health insurance company Anthem Inc. that
compromised the records of more than 78
million consumers, investigators said
Friday. They declined to identify the hackers
or the foreign government.
Social Security numbers, birthdates and
employment details of customers were
accessed in the breach, officials said.
Cybersecurity experts say the data could
help a foreign government build a profile of
people theyre targeting for espionage.
Intelligence has become a data-mining
exercise, said Avivah Litan, a vice president and security analyst for Gartner
Research. The intelligence officer of 2017
needs a lot of data to find targets and get to
the targets that theyre interested in.
Anthem, the nations second-largest
health insurer, has agreed to make $260 million in improvements to its information
security systems as part of a settlement with
insurance regulators in most U.S. states and
territories.
The company will also provide credit protection to consumers whose information
was compromised.
The insurer is licensed in all 50 states and
conducts business under brands including
Blue Cross Blue Shield, Unicare, CareMore

and Amerigroup.
Investigators from the cybersecurity firm
CrowdStrike identified the attackers with
high confidence and concluded with
medium confidence that they were working for a foreign government, according to a
report released by California Insurance
Commissioner Dave Jones.
We do not have information as to the
motive of those that were behind this cyberattack, but the volume of information and
the kind of information taken is very troubling, Jones said.
A finding of high confidence means the
information is verified by multiple sources
or a single highly reliable source. Medium
confidence means the information is open
to multiple interpretations or not reliable
enough to warrant higher confidence.
Federal law enforcement officials requested that Jones not identify the foreign government due to an ongoing investigation,
said Madison Voss, a spokeswoman for the
insurance department.
Previous attacks by that same government have not resulted in personal information being sent to non-governmental entities, CrowdStrike said in its report.
Foreign spy agencies amass as much data
as possible from various data breaches to
identify espionage targets, gain leverage
over them and hone their approach, cyber
security experts said.

Congress certifies
Trumps victory

Donald Trump said he learned a lot from his discussions with intelligence officials, but declined to say whether
he accepted their assertion that Russia had meddled in the election on his behalf.
Report: Putin ordered effort

to help Trump, hurt Clinton
By Eileen Sullivan, Deb
Riechmann and Julie Pace
WASHINGTON Russian
President Vladimir Putin ordered a
hidden campaign to influence
Americas presidential election in
favor of Donald Trump over
Hillary Clinton, U.S. intelligence
agencies declared Friday in the
governments first formal allegation supporting sensational
claims that Trump and his supporters have staunchly resisted.
The intelligence report, an
unclassified version of a moredetailed classified account given
earlier to Trump, the White House
and congressional leaders, withheld the governments evidence to
back up its assertions.
Trump, in a brief interview with
the Associated Press, said he
learned a lot from his discussions with intelligence officials,
but declined to say whether he
accepted their assertion that
Russia had meddled in the election
on his behalf.
It was a really great meeting, I
really
like
those people a
lot,
said
Trump, who has
challenged the
i n t el l i g en ce
c o m m un i t y
since winning
the election. I
Vladimir Putin learned a lot
and I think
they did also.
Trump would not detail what evidence he was presented with, saying only that he learned a lot of
confidential things. Because
Trump is not yet president, he is
legally constrained from revealing
classified information.
In an earlier written statement,
Trump said it was clear Russian
email hacking did not deliver him
the presidency.
The unclassified version of the
intelligence report was the most
detailed public account to date of
Russian efforts to interfere with
the U.S. political process, with
actions that included hacking into
the email accounts of the
Democratic National Committee
and individual Democrats like

Hillary Clinton make
comments on
social media services, the report
said. There was no suggestion that
Russia affected actual vote counting or tampered with ballot
machines.
President
Barack
Obama requested the report last
month and wanted it completed
before inauguration day.
The report, for the first time,
explicitly tied Putin to the hackings, called it the boldest effort
yet to influence a U.S. election,
and said the Russian government
provided emails to WikiLeaks
something the websites founder,
Julian Assange, has repeatedly
denied. The intelligence agencies
also said Russia will continue to
try to influence future events in the
U.S. and worldwide, particularly
among U.S. allies.
WASHINGTON Congress certified Donald Trumps presidential

victory Friday over the objections
of a handful of House Democrats,
with Vice President Joe Biden pronouncing, It is over.
House Democrats objected to the
votes from at least 10 states, raising issues of voter suppression as
well as American intelligence
showing that Russia tried to sway
the election in favor of Trump. In
each case, their objections were
denied because they didnt have the
support of any senators.
All 538 electors met in their
respective state capitals in
December to cast their votes.
Fridays vote count made it official. Biden presided over the count
in his role as president of the
Senate.
Trump finished with 304 electoral votes and Democrat Hillary
Clinton got 227. There were
seven protest votes for other can-
didates. It takes 270 Electoral

College votes to win the presidency.
As expected, Mike Pence was
elected vice president.
Trump and Pence are to be sworn
in on Jan. 20.
As the votes were announced for
state after state, Democratic members of the House stood up to
object. But in each case, no
Democratic senator would join
them, and Biden cut them off.
There can be no debate, Biden
said repeatedly.
Under federal law, if at least one
senator and one House member
object to the vote from any state,
the House and Senate will meet
separately to debate the merits of
the objection.
Toward the end of the count,
Rep. Maxine Waters, D-Calif. ,
pleaded for a senator to join her in
objecting.
Is there one United States senator who will join me in this letter
of objection? Waters said to boos
from Republicans. None did.
Will Donald Trumps promised wall

become taxpayer-funded fence?
By Erica Werner and Jill Colvin
WASHINGTON It was the signature promise of his campaign:

Donald Trump vowed to build an
impenetrable, concrete wall along
the southern border. And Mexico
was going to pay for it.
Now as he nears inauguration,
that wall is sounding increasingly
like it could end up a fence. And his
team
and
Congressional
Republicans are hatching a plan in
which taxpayers at least initially would foot the bill.
Trump and his aides insisted
Friday the president-elect wasnt
breaking with his campaign vow.
Nothing has changed from our
perspective, said top Trump
adviser Kellyanne Conway in an
interview with CBS. She said
Congress was taking it on themselves to explore different options

to pay for the wall, and voiced no
objections.
Trump was more direct: The dishonest media does not report that
any money spent on building the
Great Wall (for sake of speed), will
be paid back by Mexico later! he
tweeted.
Under the plan being discussed,
the new construction would be
pushed through without any new
border legislation, relying on a
2006 law that authorized more
fencing along the southern border.
Congress would pay for it in its
annual spending bills.
Trump told the New York Times
in an interview Friday that the
spending plan would help speed
up the process, and insisted that
even if taxpayers pay upfront,
Were going to, get reimbursed.
SHOOTING
Continued from page 1
The gunman was identified as 26-year-old
Esteban Santiago of Anchorage, Alaska, who
served in Iraq with the National Guard but was
demoted and discharged last year for unsatisfactory performance. His brother said he had
been receiving psychological treatment
recently.
A law enforcement official told the
Associated Press that Santiago had walked
into the FBI office in Anchorage in November
to say that the U.S. government was controlling his mind and making him watch Islamic
State videos.
Agents questioned an agitated and disjointed-sounding Santiago and then called police,
who took him for a mental health evaluation,
according to the official, who was not authorized to discuss the case and spoke on condition of anonymity.
FBI agent George Piro, who is in charge of
the Miami field office, confirmed that
Santiago had come into the Anchorage office
and said he clearly indicated at the time that
he was not intent on hurting anyone.
Authorities said the motive for the attack
was under investigation. Shortly after the
shooting, and before details of Santiagos
mental health became public, Sen. Bill
Nelson of Florida said that it remained to be
seen whether it was terrorism or the work of
someone who is mentally deranged.
Piro said authorities are looking at leads in
several states and have not ruled out terrorism. Were looking at every angle, including the terrorism angle, he said
Santiago, who is in federal custody, will
face federal charges and is expected to appear
in court Monday, Piro said.

report.
In May, the Planning Commission
approved permits for an eight-story building with 91 residential condominiums.

THE DAILY JOURNAL
One witness said the attacker gunned down

his victims without a word and kept shooting
until he ran out of ammunition for his handgun, sending panicked travelers running out
of the terminal and spilling onto the tarmac,
baggage in hand.
Others hid in bathroom stalls or crouched
behind cars or anything else they could find
as police and paramedics rushed in to help the
wounded and establish whether there were any
other gunmen.
Bruce Hugon, who had flown in from
Indianapolis for a vacation, was at the baggage carousel when he heard four or five pops
and saw everyone drop down on the ground.
He said a woman next to him tried to get up
and was shot in the head.
The guy must have been standing over me
at one point. I could smell the gunpowder, he
said. I thought I was about to feel a piercing
pain or nothing at all because I would have
been dead.
It is legal for airline passengers to travel
with guns and ammunition as long as the
firearms are put in a checked bag not a
carry-on and are unloaded and locked in a
hard-sided container. Guns must be declared to
the airline at check-in.
Santiago arrived in Fort Lauderdale after
taking off from Anchorage aboard a Delta
flight Thursday night, checking only one
piece of luggage his gun, said Jesse Davis,
police chief at the Anchorage airport.
At Fort Lauderdale, after he claimed his
bag, he went into the bathroom and loaded
the gun and started shooting. We dont know
why, said Chip LaMarca, a Broward County
commissioner who was briefed by investigators.
The bloodshed is likely to raise questions
of whether aviation safety officials need to
change the rules.
The attack also exposed another weak point
in airport security: While travelers have to
take off their shoes, put their carry-on luggage through X-ray machines and pass
through metal detectors to reach the gates,
many other sections of airports, such as ticket counters and baggage claim areas, are more
lightly secured and more vulnerable to attack.
In 2013, a gunman with a grudge against
the Transportation Security Administration
shot and killed one of the agencys screeners
and wounded three others during a rampage at
Los Angeles International Airport. Last
November, an airline worker was shot and
killed near an employee parking lot at
Oklahoma Citys airport, and in 2015 a
machete-wielding man was shot to death after
he attacked federal security officers at the New
Orleans airport.
The fact is that wherever there are crowds,
such as at our airports, we remain vulnerable
to these types of attacks, Nelson said.
The Fort Lauderdale gunman said nothing as
he went up and down the carousels of the
baggage claim, shooting through luggage to
get at people that were hiding, according to
Lea. The killer went through about three magazines before running out of ammunition, Lea
said.
He threw the gun down and laid spreadeagle on the ground until the officer came up
to him, Lea said.
The gunman was arrested unharmed, with
no shots fired by law enforcement officers,
and was being questioned by the FBI, Sheriff
Scott Israel said.
Broward County Sheriff Scott Israel said 30
to 40 people were injured scrapes, bruises
and broken bones after the shooting.
The condition of the wounded was not disclosed. At least one of the victims was seen
lying in a pool of blood with what appeared
to be a head wound.
The airport was shut down, with incoming
flights diverted and outgoing flights held on
the ground. Airport Director Mark Gale said it
will try to reopen at 5 a.m. Saturday but urged

travelers to check with their individual airlines on flight status. He said 10,000 of the
airports stranded travelers were being bused
overnight to the citys spacious Port
Everglades cruise ship terminal.
President Barack Obama was briefed by his
Homeland Security adviser, the White House
said. President-elect Donald Trump said that it
is a disgraceful situation thats happening in
our country and throughout the world and
that it was too soon to say whether it was a
terrorist attack.
Santiagos brother, Bryan, told the AP that
his brother had been receiving psychological
treatment in Alaska. He said Santiagos girlfriend alerted the family to the situation in
recent months. Bryan Santiago said that he
didnt know what his brother was being treated for and that they never talked about it.
He said Esteban Santiago was born in New
Jersey and moved to Puerto Rico when he was
2. He was sent to Iraq in 2010 and spent a year
there with the 130th Engineer Battalion,
according to Puerto Rico National Guard
spokesman Maj. Paul Dahlen. He later joined
the Alaska National Guard.
The Pentagon said Santiago had gone
AWOL several times during his stint with the
Alaska National Guard and was demoted
from specialist to private first class and
given a general discharge, which is lower
than an honorable discharge.
John Schilcher told Fox News he came up
to the baggage claim and heard the first gunshot as he picked up his bag off a carousel.
The person next to me fell to the ground
and then I started hearing other pops. And as
this happened, other people started falling
and you could hear it and smell it, and people
on either side of me were going down and I
just dropped to the ground, said Schilcher,
who was there with his wife and mother-inlaw. The firing just went on and on.
ing to appeal the Planning Commissions

decision, citing concerns that the building
was too tall and contributed to uncontrollable growth in the downtown. In July, the
City Council both denied the appeal and
approved the project, according to a staff
report. Assistant City Manager Aaron
Aknin said the council chose to uphold the
Planning Commissions approval because
the project was consistent with Redwood
Citys Downtown Precise Plan.
The City Councils decision incited the
citizen group Redwood City Residents for
Responsible Development to file a lawsuit
against Redwood City. The groups settled in
November, agreeing that The Pauls
Corporation would submit a revised plan at
a future public hearing, according to a staff
report.
We were trying to slow down the unparalleled and uncontrolled growth happening in
downtown, said Carr. We wanted four to
five stories and we settled for six.

Andrew Lavaux, a representative with The
Pauls Corporation, said he did not want to
comment on the project at this time.
The revised plan referenced in the settlement agreement now stands before the City
Council and includes a reduction in the number of stories to six from eight and the number of residential units available to 68 from
91. The number of parking spaces will
decrease by 30 for a total of 106 parking
spaces in a two-floor underground parking
garage, as opposed to the three-floor garage
proposed in the previous plan.
The new plan also generates almost
$500,000 less in the affordable housing
impact fee, which allows the city to charge
project applicants for new residential and
commercial developments to help fund the
provision of affordable housing units in the
city. The project at 603 Jefferson Ave.
marks the first time since the city adopted
the fee in December of 2015 that is subject

to it, Aknin said.
The unit reduction in the revised plan
opens slots in the number of market-rate
units as set by the maximum allowable
development cap in the Downtown Precise
Plan. Of the 521 market-rate units available, 491 have been proposed, including
the revised 603 Jefferson project.
In the appeal and lawsuit effort, Johnson
provided what he calls residential support,
and said the revised plan achieves a bittersweet solution to lessening the impact of a
building of this magnitude in downtown
Redwood City.
I thought it was a reasonable proposal
by the developer, he said. Unfortunately,
it took a lawsuit for developers to make
concessions.
The Redwood City Council meets 7 p.m.
Monday, Jan. 9, at City Hall at 1017

Russia says it is scaling back its Syria military presence

By Jim Heintz and Sarah El Deeb
MOSCOW Russia said Friday it is withdrawing its aircraft carrier and other warships
from the waters off Syria, following orders
from President Vladimir Putin to scale back
his forces as he casts himself as a peacemaker for the Middle Eastern country.
Russias military support changed the
course of the 6-year-old civil war in favor of
the government of Syrian President Bashar
Assad, bolstering his forces with long-range
missile attacks and precise airstrikes, military advisers and a beefed-up naval base on
the Mediterranean coast.
It is not clear how far Moscow intends to
draw down its forces. Putin said Russia would
continue fighting international terrorism in
Syria and supporting Assads military, an
indication that Russia has no intention of
leaving altogether.
But the withdrawal is a show of confidence
after the decisive victory last month by Assad
and his allies over rebels in the northern city
of Aleppo. A week ago, Russia helped broker
a cease-fire with Turkey, which supports the
opposition, paving the way for new peace
talks, this time in Kazakhstan, a Moscow
ally.
A day before the cease-fire took effect,
Putin ordered the scale-back.
The successes of the Syrian armed forces
in the liberation of Aleppo have created the
necessary conditions for the peaceful settlement of the conflict, said Russian General
Staff chief Gen. Valery Gerasimov. Im confident that it will lay the basis for the political settlement of the conflict.
The first forces to leave, he said, will be the
aircraft carrier Admiral Kuznetsov, which was
deployed in November at the height of the

begun reducing its military forces in Syria under the terms of a fragile cease-fire deal brokered
between opposition groups and the Syrian government.
Aleppo offensive, and other, accompanying
ships.
Moscow began its military intervention
supporting Assad in September 2015. It
announced a reduction in its forces once
before, in March 2016 during a brief U.S.Russian-brokered cease-fire and the launch
of peace talks in Geneva. A few air units
withdrew, but that truce quickly collapsed,
peace talks went nowhere, and Moscow
again threw renewed military might behind
the Syrian government.

At the time, the U.S. estimated that there
were 3,000 to 6,000 Russian military personnel in Syria, a number that likely rose
before the Aleppo offensive.

November, a MiG-29 crashed into the sea

while trying to land on the vessel.
Weeks of intensive airstrikes and a tightening siege on Aleppo caused rebel defenses to
crumble, and they were forced to finally evacuate a small enclave of the city they controlled since 2012. The government declared
Dec. 22 it had full control of the city, once
Syrias bustling commercial capital.
Syrias army Chief of Staff Gen. Ali Ayoub
visited the aircraft carrier Friday, according to
Syrian state television.
He said the vessel has become part and
parcel of the history of war on terrorism,
according to Al-Ikhbariya TV. He added that
signs of victory loom after all the Syria
military sacrifices and Russias honorable
position.
The recapture of Aleppo by Syrian troops
and the subsequent cease-fire make Russian
forces less critical to Assad at this juncture of
the war. The rebels are mostly concentrated in
Idlib province, a stronghold in the north on
the border with Turkey. They also have a presence around the capital, Damascus, where
government and allied forces are focusing
their efforts. Opposition groups say the
fighting there violates the cease-fire and
threatens the peace talks.
The cease-fire is meant to pave the way for
negotiations in Astana, Kazakhstans capital, later this month. The gathering could
give new impetus for U.N.-mediated talks
between Syrias warring sides. The truce,
however, doesnt include areas controlled by
the Islamic State group.
On Friday, Syrias Kurdish-led forces in the
north said they have taken control of a
medieval castle perched on a hilltop over a
strategic town held by IS militants, less than
32 kilometers (20 miles) from Raqqa, the
extremist groups self-declared capital.

Higher wages push stocks to records

By Marley Jay
DOW JONES INDUSTRIALS
NEW YORK So close! The

Dow Jones industrial average
missed the 20,000 mark by a fraction of a point Friday as U.S.
stock indexes rose after the government said wages jumped in
December. Two other major indexes set records.
Stocks wavered between gains
and losses in the morning after the
December jobs report, which
showed less hiring than analysts
hoped to see. Bond yields rose
sharply, as the continued job
gains should encourage the
Federal Reserve to keep raising
interest rates.
Indexes turned higher as
investors concluded that the rising wages will lead to more spending on technology and consumer
goods. Industrial companies rose
as investors hoped for greater economic growth.
Sam Stovall, a U. S. equity
strategist for S&P Capital IQ, said
there was good news for most
industries. Thats because workers
are being paid more, but the report
wont push the Fed to raise rates
quickly in order to stave off inflation.
Consumers are earning a bit

more and as a result can spend

more, he said. But ... people are
not too worried the Fed will have
to slam on the brakes.
At about 12:40 p.m. the Dow
peaked at 19,999.63, but later lost
steam. It finished up 64. 51
points, or 0. 3 percent, at
19, 963. 80. The S&P 500 rose
7.98 points, or 0.4 percent, to
2,276.98. The Nasdaq composite
jumped 33.12 points, or 0.6 percent, to 5,521.06.
The small-cap Russell 2000
index slid 4.65 points, or 0.3 percent, to 1,367.28.

Stocks finished the week with a

big gain as investors remained
optimistic about the U.S. economy. The S&P 500 climbed 1.7 percent. That was a marked change
from last year, when the index lost
6 percent as the market got off to
its worst opening week in history.
The Labor Department said U.S.
employers added 156,000 jobs in
December, which was solid but
slightly disappointing. However
the government said hourly pay
jumped 2. 9
percent
from
December 2015, the biggest
monthly increase in seven years.
Overall, job growth remained

steady in 2016 but slowed a bit
from 2015.
The biggest gains went to companies that stand to benefit from
higher wages and greater spending
by consumers. Among technology
companies, Facebook rose $2.74,
or 2.3 percent, to $123.41 and
Apple gained $1.30, or 1.1 percent, to $117.91. Amazon had its
second big gain in a row and added
$15.54, or 2 percent, to $795.99
while travel website TripAdvisor
picked up $1.57, or 3.2 percent,
to $50.77.
Industrial companies, which

have climbed since the presidential election two months ago, also
fared well. Machinery and equipment maker Honeywell rose
$1. 77, or 1. 5 percent, to
$118.53.
Bond prices fell. The yield on
the 10-year Treasury note rose to
2.42 percent from 2.35 percent.
Higher bond yields mean higher
interest rates, which allow banks
to make more money on lending.
Investment banks and other financial firms did better than the rest
of the market Friday afternoon.
SunTrust Banks rose 63 cents, or
1. 1 percent, to $55. 53 and
Goldman Sachs jumped $3.58, or
1.5 percent, to $244.90.
Companies that pay large dividends, including phone companies and real estate investment
trusts, lagged the market as bond
yields rose. Those stocks are often
compared to bonds because of the
steady income they provide. AT&T
gave up 84 cents, or 2 percent, to
$41. 32 and Crown Castle
International fell $1.74, or 2 percent, to $85.50.
Amgen climbed and Sanofi and
Regeneron Pharmaceuticals fell
after a court moved to block sales
of Sanofi and Regenerons cholesterol drug Praluent.
Detroit auto show: Google, Camry and the shadow of Trump

By Dee-Ann Durbin
DETROIT Fresh off a record

year for U.S. auto sales, carmakers
meet in Detroit next week to show
buyers whats coming next and
ponder their own future under a
Trump administration.
More than 40 new vehicles will
debut at the North American
International Auto Show, which is
one of the largest shows in the U.S.
After record sales of 17.55 million
in 2016, U.S. sales of new cars and
trucks are expected to cool off a little this year, but demand remains
strong.
Even if they can count on U.S.
buyers, automakers arent sure what
to make of President-elect Donald
Trump. Trump has criticized Ford,

General Motors and Toyota for
making vehicles in Mexico and
exporting them to the U.S. He is
threatening a 35-percent border
tax, which could throw the industry
into disarray. But automakers are
also hopeful that Trump will lower
corporate taxes and loosen fuel
economy standards and other regulations.
It is the year of unknowns, said
Michelle Krebs, a senior analyst
with
the
car-buying
site
Autotrader.com.
Heres what to look for at the
Detroit show, which is open to the
public from Jan. 14-22.
BIG DEBUTS: New versions of
some important products will debut
at the show. Toyota will show off
the new Camry sedan, which has

been the best-selling car in the U.S.
since 2002, and Honda will pull the
wraps off the new Odyssey minivan. Americans are increasingly
favoring SUVs over cars, and
automakers are scrambling to meet
that demand. GM will have new versions of its popular GMC Terrain
and Chevrolet Traverse SUVs.
Nissan will show a smaller version
of its Rogue SUV, while
Volkswagen will have a stretched
version of its Tiguan. Even Chinese
automaker GAC Group, which doesnt yet sell vehicles in the U.S.,
will be showing off an SUV. As
usual, there will be some surprises.
Kia is teasing a high-performance
sports car and Ford which
shocked the show with its GT last
year is mum on its plans.

MOBILITY BUZZ: Seismic
changes are coming to the auto
industry in the form of car-sharing
and
self-driving
vehicles.
Carmakers are trying to get on
board. For the first time, a convention dedicated to mobility will run
during the auto show press days.
Dubbed Automobili-D, the event
will feature booths from more than
100 tech startups, auto suppliers
and carmakers with innovations
like car seats that can sense when
youre drowsy and software that can
navigate the car in stop-and-go
traffic. Waymo Googles selfdriving car project will kick off
the event by showing its new
autonomous minivan developed
with Fiat Chrysler.
TRUMP EFFECT: The auto show
Apple CEO Tim Cooks pay

slumps along with iPhone sales
SAN FRANCISCO Apple penalized CEO
Tim Cook for the iPhone makers first sales
slump in 15 years with a 15 percent pay cut.
Cook still made out well with a compensation package valued at $8.7 million for
Apples fiscal year that ended last September.
But the amount was down from nearly $10.3
million in the prior year.
The Cupertino, California, company cited
in regulatory documents filed Friday downturns in Apples revenue and operating profit
as the main reason for reducing the pay of
Cook and other top executives.
Apples revenue dropped 8 percent $216
billion while its operating profit declined 16
percent to $60 billion, largely because it
sold fewer iPhones for the first time since the
device came out in 2007.
The company expected sales to rebound
during the holiday season.
Yahoo deletes tweet

that included racial slur
Yahoo Finance says it accidentally tweeted
out a racial epithet when promoting a story
about the cost of President-elect Donald
Trumps plans to increase the size of the U.S.
Navy.
The headline for the story on Yahoo
Finance is, Trump Wants a Much Bigger
Navy: Heres How Much Itll Cost. But when
it was tweeted Thursday, the word bigger
will be the first time many executives are asked about Donald Trump
and whether his threatened border
tax will affect their plans to build
factories in Mexico. Assembly
plants are big investments, costing
well over $1 billion, and automakers are unlikely to change course.
But Trumps tough talk is already
having some impact. Ford
announced earlier this week that it
would halt production of a planned
Mexico plant. The automaker said
falling demand for small cars not
Trump was the primary reason
for the change, and Ford CEO Mark
Fields shrugged off the threat of tariffs. But Fields said the move was a
vote of confidence for Trump,
whose promised corporate tax relief
could make the U.S. a better place
to do business.
Business briefs
had an n as its first letter instead of a b.
The tweet was deleted and Yahoo Finance
tweeted an apology, chalking up the mishap
to a spelling error. A company spokeswoman
referred to the statement when asked for further comment.
FBI releases documents

related to San Bernardino iPhone
WASHINGTON The FBI on Friday
released 100 pages of heavily censored documents related to its agreement with an
unidentified vendor to hack into an iPhone
used by one of the San Bernardino,
California, shooters, but it did not identify
whom it paid to perform the work or how
much it cost.
The records were provided in response to a
federal lawsuit filed against the FBI by the
Associated Press, Vice Media and Gannett,
the parent company of USA Today.
The media organizations sued in September
to learn how much the FBI paid and who it
hired to break into the phone of Syed Rizwan
Farook, who along with his wife killed 14
people at a holiday gathering of county
workers in December 2015. The FBI for
weeks had maintained that only Apple Inc.
could access the information on its phone,
which was protected by encryption, but ultimately broke or bypassed Apples digital
locks with the help of an unnamed third
party.

South City holds off

Woodside in PAL Bay
Division soccer opener
By Nathan Mollat

The race for the Peninsula Athletic

League Bay Division boys soccer
championship should be an entertaining one given the play on display at South City Friday afternoon
as South City hosted Woodside.
The Warriors were in the mix for
the 2016 Bay Division crown,

while the Wildcats posted an undefeated mark in capturing the Ocean
Division title last season.
Given the competition in the Bay
Division, however, every game is
crucial and South City already has a
leg up. While Woodside outplayed
South City for most of the afternoon, the Warriors were the more
opportunistic of the two, notching

a pair of first-half goals and then
holding on in the second half for a
2-1 victory.

Raiders hope Cook sizzles

By Kristie Rieken
HOUSTON Two weeks ago, the

Oakland Raiders were heading for the
playoffs with MVP candidate Derek
Carr at quarterback.
Now theyre down to rookie thirdstring quarterback Connor Cook as
they prepare for their first postseason
game since the 2002 season with a
wild-card matchup against the Houston
Texans on Saturday.
Cook was named
the starter this week
after Carr broke his
leg on Dec. 24 and
backup
Matt
McGloin injured his
shoulder on Sunday.
Cook, who made his
NFL debut last
Derek Carr
week, will be the
first quarterback in
NFL history to make
his first start in a
playoff game.
But the Raiders
(12-4) arent feeling
sorry for themselves.
You do the best
Matt McGloin you can regardless
of the circumstances, Raiders coach Jack Del Rio
said. To me its a great opportunity.
You have these great opportunities in
life to be at your best, and you get these
great challenges.
So, how do you respond? What we
want to do is respond like men and go in
there full of energy and belief and fight
our (tails) off.
Cook was a fourth-round pick after a
four-year career at Michigan State where
he threw for 9,194 yards with 71 touchdowns and 22 interceptions.
He expects to be a bit nervous early

Grizzlies rally from 24 down to stun Warriors in OT

By Janie McCauley
Grizzlies 128, Warriors 119, OT
OAKLAND Mike Conley scored 27

points and the Memphis Grizzlies rallied all
the way back from 24 down, stunning
Golden State 128-119 in overtime Friday
night for their second victory over the
Warriors this season.
Golden State squandered Stephen Currys 40
points with an awful fourth quarter and watched
Conley knock down a key jumper with 55 seconds left in OT.
Marc Gasol and Zach Randolph each made
two quick baskets as the Grizzlies hit their
initial five shots in the extra period and
snapped Golden States nine-game home
winning streak.
Draymond Green had a three-point play for
the Warriors with 2:22 left in overtime, then
made a steal on the other end. But he turned
the ball over and Troy Daniels immediately
hit a corner 3-pointer for

Memphis.
Conley tied it on a 17footer with 7.4 seconds left
in regulation, and a heavily
guarded Curry missed from
way back before the buzzer.
Kevin Durant had 27
points and 13 rebounds
Mike Conley but missed five free
throws in the Warriors
sixth defeat of the season. The Grizzlies handed Golden State a 110-89 loss on Dec. 10.
One spectacular play seemed it would sum up
Currys night until his team crumbled.
Off the ground mid-shot, he knocked down a
3-pointer and converted the four-point play to
chants of M-V-P! with 5:16 left in the third
quarter after a foul on his backside by Vince
Carter. Currys bottom on the court and mouth-
piece hanging out moments later, he raised

both arms up to make sure everybody knew the
shot was good and it was.
The Warriors didnt make their first field
goal in the fourth until Currys jumper with
3:14 to go. They shot 2 for 13 in the period
with five turnovers.
Klay Thompson had been questionable
with an illness but got going in a hurry. He
scored 12 points on 12 shots in 13 minutes
out of the gate and wound up with 17 points
for Golden State.
Curry, who shot 15 for 27 and 5 of 13 on 3s,
has made a concerted effort to be more aggressive on the offensive end during this recent
stretch and since a defeat at Cleveland on
Christmas after which he said he didnt shoot
enough.
He notched his second 40-point game following a 35-point outing Wednesday against
Portland. But the Warriors lost for the first

time in 26 regular-season games when Curry
scored at least 30 points.
Curry had 17 points in the first quarter alone
on 6-for-8 shooting. He scored only two in
the second but made a pretty drive-and-dish
out to Thompson for a 3-pointer to beat the
halftime buzzer and put the Warriors ahead 6755 at the break.
That came after Durant dribbled twice
through his legs and stepped back for a 3 from
the top with a hand in his face as the first quarter ended. Durant shot 7 for 17 and 13 of 18 on
free throws.
Memphis won on Golden States home floor
for the first time since an 88-81 victory in
overtime on Nov. 20, 2013.
Warriors center Zaza Pachulia is thrilled to be
an All-Star contender thanks to all the fan support from his home country of Georgia, noting: They have experience. They know how to
do it right and Im not surprised at all.
49ers interview Shanahan for coach, Paton for GM

By Josh Dubow
SANTA CLARA The San Francisco 49ers

interviewed Atlanta offensive coordinator
Kyle Shanahan for their head coach opening
and Minnesota assistant general manager
George Paton for their GM vacancy.
Team CEO Jed York met with both candidates on Friday as part of his cross-country
tour of interviews as he seeks to replace
coach Chip Kelly and general manager Trent
Baalke following a 2-14 season that tied the
worst mark in franchise history.
The
49ers
have
announced interviews
with five candidates overall, with York meeting
Wednesday with Buffalo
Bills interim coach
Anthony Lynn about the
coaching
job
and
Thursday with Green Bay
Kyle Shanahan director of football operations Eliot Wolf and
Packers director of player personnel Brian
Gutekunst about becoming general manager.
York said he was open to hiring either the
picked as a first-team AP All-Pro on Friday.

Shanahan is eligible to interview this week
during the Falcons bye but cant be hired until
after Atlantas season is finished.
Shanahan got his first NFL job as an offensive quality control coach in Tampa Bay in
2004. He also served as an offensive coordinator in Houston, Washington and Cleveland
before arriving in Atlanta last season.
Paton has 20 years of NFL personnel experience and has turned down interviews for GM
openings in the past but decided to meet with
coach or general manager first.

Shanahan is the son of
two-time Super Bowl
winning head coach
Mike Shanahan, who
also won a title as offensive coordinator in San
Francisco in 1994.
Kyle Shanahans stock

Three rookies, Ryan, highlight AP All-Pro Team

By Barry Wilner
The Associated Press 2016 NFL All-Pro

Team is showing off the new wave of pro
football stars.
Three rookies among 17 first-time selections highlight the team, including Dallas
running back Ezekiel Elliott, and Kansas
Citys Tyreek Hill, who is a unanimous
choice as a punt returner.
Atlanta quarterback Matt Ryan, edging
New Englands Tom Brady, who was suspended for four games, is another first-time
All Pro.
Tennessee right tackle Jack Conklin is
the other rookie making the revamped roster announced Friday.
Its special, Elliott said. Just to be able
to come into this league my first year and
dominate and just play at the level Im playing, and just kind of get these honors
already as a rookie, it means a lot. I was
never even All-American in college. I was
never a first-team All-American. Ill never
get a Buckeye tree at Ohio State. Thats the
one thing that I regret the most.
Kind of seeing it
come into the league and
making All-Pro this
rookie year, it definitely
means a lot.
Its the first time since
1981 that so many firstyear players made the
team. Back then, it was
Ezekiel Elliott future Hall of Famers
Lawrence Taylor and
Ronnie Lott, and 1980 Heisman-winning
running back George Rogers.
For the first time, the nationwide panel of
50 sports writers and broadcasters who regularly cover the NFL voted for specific positions on the offensive line, a flex player on
offense, a fifth defensive back, a punt
returner and a special teamer.
Other first-timers include Arizona running
back David Johnson (flex); Denver cornerback Chris Harris Jr. (DB); and New
Englands Matthew Slater (special teamer).
One other unanimous pick is Baltimore
placekicker Justin Tucker.
With only seven repeaters from last seasons squad, the All-Pro Team has a decided-
James Madison vs. Youngstown State
FCS title on the line

By Stephen Hawkins
FRISCO, Texas Youngstown State quarterback Hunter Wells had heard plenty of stories from family and friends about the glory
days of Penguins football, and the four national championships won in the 1990s with Jim
Tressel as their coach.
But Wells, who grew up just more than an
hour from the Ohio campus, wasnt aware of
the 1999 runner-up finish in their last title
game appearance until he saw a banner at their
practice facility.
No one cares if you almost win, Wells
said. Youve got to win.
The Penguins (12-3) finally get their chance
at another title Saturday when they play James
Madison (13-1) in the FCS championship
game.
For the first time in six years, North Dakota
State didnt make it from Fargo to Frisco to
play for the title. James Madison won its
semifinal game 27-17 over the five-time
defending champion Bison in the Fargodome.
It kind of felt like we had to go dethrone the
champ, junior quarterback Bryan Schor said.
Thats what we needed to do. We said over the
summer and over spring, that if were going to
win a national championship, its going to go
through Fargo, North Dakota.
But the Dukes, from the Colonial Athletic
Association, know they have another game to
play. They won the 2004 national title the
only other time they made it this far.
I just think that whole experience right
there was probably as good of preparation as
you can have for this game right here, firstyear JMU coach Mike Houston said.
Youngstown State has a six-game winning

streak since a 24-3 loss at North Dakota State
on Nov. 5. They advanced with a 40-38 semifinal victory at Eastern Washington in subzero temperatures. Tight end Kevin Rader drew
national attention when he pinned the ball
against the back of the defender for a 5-yard TD
catch with 1 second left.
We have a lot of character, coach Bo
Pelini said. I said after that (North Dakota
State) game, and I believed it, and it was. There
was a lot more out there for our team.
Some other things to watch at the professional soccer stadium, where the game has
been played since 2010:
Physical patience
James Madison running back Khalid
Abdulla, who has 1,708 yards rushing and an
FCS-best 20 rushing touchdowns, describes
himself as patient, but physical. He goes

which was missing three starters a pair of

That put an onus on the Warriors wingers.
Yael Castro and Rick Sanchez showed good
work rates on the flanks and served in their
share of dangerous crosses.
We didnt have much in the middle, so we had
to rely on our wings, Flores said.
That helps explain greatly why Woodside (01, 2-4-1) eventually took control of possession
and spent the better part of the game chasing
those two early South City goals.
The Wildcats, however, had a couple of defensive miscues and South City took advantage.
The Warriors struck in the first minute of the
game and doubled the lead on a Woodside owngoal in the 22nd minute.
I think we were a little short in the communications department, said Woodside coach
Darrell Ringman.
Shortly after kickoff, South Citys Alejandro
Perez found the back of the net just 56 seconds
into the game. Castro triggered the play on the
left wing, sending a square pass to the top of the
Woodside penalty box. The ball was dropped off
to Gerardo Renteria, who chipped a ball over a
pair of defenders and into space in the penalty
box.
Perez was Johnny-on-the-Spot, as he raced
around the defenders and poked the ball past the
surprised Wildcats goalkeeper for a 1-0 South
City lead.
For Perez, it was his seventh goal on the season in just four starts.

other than their opening salvo, none were particularly dangerous.
South City, on the other hand, continued its
opportunistic ways. The Warriors didnt have
the ball a lot, but when they went on the attack
it was usually dangerous.
And that aggressiveness paid off in the 22nd
minute. A ball was played to Sanchez, who was
on the right flank and shadowed by Woodside
defender David Taylor. The goalkeeper and
Taylor failed to communicate as the play came
into the penalty box. With the keeper off his
line, Taylor knocked it away from him. Sanchez
had space and time to operate and he lofted a
cross to the front of the goal. With Renteria
crashing, a pair of Woodside defenders converged to cover him. One of the defenders tried
to clear the ball away, but instead directed it on

pulled one goal back in the 60th minute off a
corner kick. Alex Caceres sent a cross into a
jumble of players in the South City penalty
box, where Kevin Soto managed to flick the
ball into the back of the net.
The Wildcats were angling for the tie in the
70th minute when Caceres ran onto a beautiful

Moore, Thomas share lead at Kapalua

By Doug Ferguson
KAPALUA, Hawaii Ryan Moore and

Justin Thomas finished strong Friday and
shared the lead going into the weekend at
the SBS Tournament of Championship.
Moore birdied four of his last five holes,
including a pair of wedges that he stuffed
into tap-in range on the 16th and 18th
holes that carried him to a 6-under 67. He
played in the same group with Thomas, who
birdied his last two holes for a 67.
They were at 12-under 134, one shot
ahead of Patrick Reed (65) and Jimmy
Walker (70).
As many as six players were tied for the
lead at one point on another picturesque
afternoon along the rugged coast of Maui.
One of them was Hideki Matsuyama, going
for his fourth straight victory worldwide,
until he tried to clear the gorge on the 17th
from thick rough and paid for it. He made
HOOPS
Jeffries with 1:27 to go in the opening period. Meanwhile, Grizzlies junior Daniel
Benjamin was setting a fast and furious tone
that allowed his team to play in its element
from the outset.
We prefer to run up and down mainly
because we know were faster than most
teams we go against, we know weve got the
advantage, Benjamin said. So when we
run, we run. If they want to run a half-court
set we can do that. But if they want to run
then well take that challenge.
While Jefferson (6-6 overall) got a gamehigh 17 points from guard Mark Petalver
and 15 points from forward Giorgio
Pasquallini, it was Benjamin who ran the
show from the point guard position.
Benjamins aggressive crossover step
saw him making lanes into the paint
throughout the first half, creating opportunities for his teammates with the pass while
proving a force on the boards despite his 59 frame. The junior finished with just six
points, but totaled 10 rebounds and six
assists.
It was an especially noteworthy performance against a San Mateo team that has

cup. He finally dropped a
shot on the 17th when he
Justin Thomas choked down to the shaft
of a wedge from thick
rough and didnt reach the green. A birdie on
the final hole still kept him right in the mix
to atone for a playoff loss at Kapalua two

years ago.
Jordan Spieth also was in the mix, but
only briefly. The defending champion ran
off nine birdies, five of them after taking a
double bogey on the par-3 eighth hole. But
he hooked a tee shot into the hazard on the
17th, hit his next into another hazard and
missed a 4-foot putt to take triple bogey.
Spieth shot a 69 and was seven shots back.
Jason Day, the world No. 1 who is playing for the first time since September, had a
69 and was five shots behind.
Moore is coming off the best part of his
career last season. He won the John Deere
Classic, lost in a playoff at the Tour
Championship, was the final captains pick
for his first Ryder Cup and made the putt that
clinched the cup for the Americans.
He still feels like the same player, though
the narrative has changed. Hes now a Ryder
Cup player, and hed like to pile up more
victories.
Moore had a pair of three-putts early in
the round, both from long range and one of

them on a par 5, but he found his groove
with a 25-foot birdie putt on the 12th hole.
That carried him to his big finish. The only
hole he didnt birdie was at No. 17, where
his 12-footer lipped out.
Thomas, determined to be more accurate
off the tee this year, tied for the lead with a
tee shot into 3 feet on the par-3 11th, and he
appeared to escape trouble on the par-5 15th
when he was able to slash his second shot
out of the hazard. But he came up short of
the elevated green and still left with a
bogey, which feels worse as long as he hits
it.
But he holed a 15-foot putt on the 17th,
and his pitch from short of the 18th green
settled 6 feet away for another birdie.
As many as six players were tied for the
lead at one point. One of them was Hideki

victory, until he took double bogey on the

taken pride in its defense this season. The

Bearcats (9-3) entered play yielding a mere
46.6-point average through 11 games. San
Mateo showed flashes of defense Friday, but
when that would happen, Jeff would hit the
accelerator and keep the Bearcats defenders
out of tempo.
Im most disappointed in our defense,
San Mateo head coach Marvin Lui said.
What weve been able to do, weve been
holding teams to about 46 points a game.
Benjamin did a great job just slicing
through everything. He didnt score much
but he created a lot of opportunities for his
teammates.
Where the Bearcats lost the handle on the
game was on offense, playing a train wreck
of a first half. San Mateo committed 15
turnovers in the opening half while shooting just 22.2 percent from the floor.
The first quarter was pretty much the
game, Lui said. We got caught up in that
style instead of being disciplined and settling things down. We had way too many
turnovers, especially in the first quarter. But
give credit to Jefferson. They came out after
us and we didnt really play to the best of our
ability.
Much of Jeffs mojo would seem to come
from playing on its home court. The
Grizzlies are now 5-2 at home this season,
compared to 1-4 on the road.
Weve had very good success here,
Grizzlies head coach John Falabella said.

Im not sure if its because of the arena or
because were very comfortable on our home
court. But we love to play at Jefferson.
even in the third quarter at a blazing 23-23

pace. San Mateo junior Viraj Chadha drilled
three 3-pointers in the half working
towards a team-high 13 points but
Petalver kept even, knocking down three
treys of his own.
Jefferson also outrebounded San Mateo
34-27 throughout.
Sometimes you need a little bit of a
wakeup call going into league to go back to
the drawing board and see what you need to
work on and get ready for (the Peninsula
Athletic League South Division opener
against) M-A on Wednesday, Lui said.
Jeff, meanwhile, is eyeing a PAL North
Division race that currently has archrival
Westmoor sitting pretty with the divisions
best overall record at 8-4. One of those wins
came against Jeff on Dec. 10 by a score of
66-58 in the Lowell High School Cardinal
Classic.
In recent weeks, however, Jeff has been
playing a much more contentious schedule,
including a 51-48 double-overtime loss to
Santa Clara on Dec. 30, and a 67-65 win
over Woodside Dec. 31.
The (.500) record dont really say what
weve done because we scheduled a hard preseason for a reason, Benjamin said. So
were not surprised with a 6-6 record. If you
were at the games youd know we were in all
those games that we lost. So, thats what we
wanted.

advocate for catch-and-release fishing,
which helped preserve the wild trout fishery
in the Madison River. He was a founding
member and the first president of the
Montana chapter of Trout Unlimited.
Later in life, Lilly frequently brought his
message to lawmakers in Helena, lobbying
for conservation initiatives and against any
measures he felt would endanger fish.
Lilly is survived by his wife Esther, five
children and five grandchildren. He was preceded in death by his first wife, Pat, in
1984.
The Grizzlies also love to play steep competition. Breaking even through 12 nonleague games should actually be seen as a
feather in the teams cap considering the
caliber of completion theyve taken on,
including losses to University-SF, St.
Ignatius-SF, Santa Clara and MenloAtherton.
Its a tough preseason schedule,
Falabella said. We did it on purpose. Last
year we had 19 wins and we felt that getting
an 11-seed in [the Central Coast Section
playoffs] that we should have been higher
than that. Really what was missing was a
signature win. And thats what we were after
this year. We didnt necessarily get it. But
by playing these tougher teams were
preparing ourselves for a run at league and a
long postseason run, hopefully.
Taking down a 9-3 San Mateo team, however, is signature-ish. More so, the
Grizzlies showed they can spar with a contender. Despite the Bearcats abysmal opening half, they came back in the third quarter
to shoot 7 of 12 from the floor, finishing
the night at an overall clip of 37.2 percent.
But Jeff kept any thoughts of a big-time
comeback in check. The two teams broke

Tom Savage started Houstons last two regular-season games, but is out this week after

Florida softball league is 87 many players even older

glasses before throwing the ball to second
base. Abelsons arm is strong, and the man
in his 80s on the opposing team is out.
My doctor said recently, Id never guess
that you were 91 years old, shrugs
Abelson, a former life insurance salesman
and a player for the Kids & Kubs senior
league in St. Petersburg. To be eligible,
players must be at least 75 so its often
called the three-quarters league.
Abelson is one of five active players over
90, and in the scheme of things, hes something of a youngster. One player is 97.
Kids & Kubs is a Depression-era creation.
It began in 1930 and quickly drew crowds.
In the 1940s, some 5,000 people packed
the bleachers. Black-and-white newsreels
highlighted the energetic grandpas. (The
70-member league is now co-ed; a few
women play).
The 97-year-old player, Winchell Smith,
says: The place was mobbed then. They
didnt have anything else to do.

people, the softball team gives a strong sense of purspose.
Nick Buettner, Blue Zone Project
Today, only a handful of people watch. St.

Petersburg was once known as the mecca of
the newly wed and the nearly dead, but
now that hipsters have moved in with their
craft beer, kombucha and indie markets, few
relics of the past survive. Kids & Kubs still
has an office next door to the citys shuffleboard club, but young people have claimed
that, too.
Kids & Kubs is a holdout of old Florida.
Players arrive before 9 to stretch and practice in the warm winter sun. Most are veterans, with many having served in combat in
World War II. Dugout talk often consists of
hospital visits and arthritis. Some topics
are more serious: One longtime player lost
his wife recently. Each year, two or three
teammates die.
But they dont dwell on the inevitable.
While theyve updated their dress white uniforms they wear shorts and polo shirts
and no longer are required to don bow ties
they still play robust doubleheaders three

days a week.
Play ball, calls out Don Osborn, the 90year-old announcer. Hes the leagues scorekeeper, announcer and website manager.
Hes also the only one who still wears a
bowtie when the Kids & Kubs play.
The origin of the league name is unclear.
Player Clarence Faucett, 89, thinks it has
something to do with when the team used to
fundraise for a local childrens hospital,
decades ago. The players were the kids; the
children in the hospital were the kubs.
We dont know that for sure, Faucett
said. That mystery will probably never be
solved.
Smith, a team captain who played second
base when he was younger, is now a Kids &
Kubs catcher. He credits his longevity to
healthy eating and playing ball.
And while exercise and clean eating clearly help people stay healthy, longevity
experts say friends and camaraderie are

important, too.
Relying on others, and knowing others
rely on you, gives life meaning, said Nick
Buettner, who works for the Blue Zone
Project in Minneapolis and who has studied
longevity and aging.
A reason to get up in the morning, he
said. Im guessing for a lot of these people, the softball team gives a strong sense
of purpose.
Smith said the league keeps me going,
the only thing really, he said. If I didnt
have this, Id be sitting in a rocking chair
ready to die.
Wayne Hill, a 75-year-old who splits his
year between Michigan and Florida, said
hed been waiting 30 years to join the
league. Hes had a triple bypass, aortic
valve surgery and a hip replacement but
says playing ball is the best thing he can do
for his body and mind.
The challenge of still playing. The challenge of going after a ball, throwing a ball,
hitting a ball. Its unbelievably great, he
said, grinning. Its just the thrill of the
game. Im not in it to win or lose, Im in it
to play.
Djokovic to face Murray in final at Qatar Open
Ms ship Seth Smith to Baltimore
By Sandra Harwitt
SEATTLE The Seattle Mariners

acquired right-handed pitcher Yovani
Gallardo from the Baltimore Orioles on
Friday in exchange for outfielder Seth
Smith. The Mariners will also receive cash
considerations from the Orioles.
The acquisition of another option for the
pitching rotation was high on Seattles list of
needs before the start of spring training after
the Mariners traded Taijuan Walker to the
Arizona Diamondbacks in November. Gallardo
was 6-8 with a 5.32 ERA in 23 starts last season with the Orioles, but two seasons ago was
13-11 with a 3.42 ERA in 33 starts with Texas.
DOHA, Qatar Defending Qatar Open

champion Novak Djokovic survived five
match points to beat Fernando Verdasco and
set up a final against top-ranked Andy
Murray, who had far less trouble winning
his semifinal as he recorded a seventh
straight victory against Tomas Berdych.
On another day of chilly and windy weather Friday, Djokovic prevailed 4-6, 7-6 (7),
6-3 after the 42nd-ranked Verdasco, a crafty
left-hander and former top-10 player, controlled the first two sets until the latter
stages of the tiebreaker.

Murray had no such
trouble as he advanced 63, 6-4 against the thirdseeded Czech. Murrays
winning streak is now at
28 matches and the
British player had 10
aces and 22 winners in a
Novak Djokovic convincing performance.
Its a great match
against Novak to look forward to, Murray
said on court. This has been the perfect
week to get ready for the Australian Open.
Murray has beaten Djokovic in two of
their last three meetings

including in the final
of last years season-ending ATP Finals but the
Serb holds a dominant
24-11 career record
against Murray.
But Djokovic acknowledged that Verdasco could
Andy Murray rightly have been the
one facing Murray on
Saturday. Of the five match points Verdasco
held from 6-2 in the second-set tiebreaker,
four evaporated on the Spaniards own mistakes.

Cultural capital
By Megan Tao
budding engineer Mary Jackson (Janelle

Monae) and computer supervisor Dorothy
Vaughan (Octavia Spencer) are becoming
impossible to ignore.
Metaphors are all around. While rockets
lift off, the women of Hidden Figures
strive for their own upward movement.
Arithmetic surrounds them, but theyre
On New Years Day, I played tourist in my

own city and visited the San Francisco
Museum of Modern Art.
The extent of my art experience is my
current Art I class, which Im required to
take to graduate. Even though I had no
prior interest in modern art or art for that
matter, going to the
museum was something
that interested me
because of its connection with cultural capital.
In my junior year, my
English teacher assigned
us each month to read
and analyze articles in
the hopes that we would gain cultural capital. Cultural capital is knowledge of current
events, historical events, art and literature.
Pretty much information one stores up so
they have topics to talk about at parties
and feel like an intellectual. I became
obsessed with the idea of gaining cultural
capital for the sole reason of pursuing
knowledge and being knowledgeable.
The first art piece I came across was a
canvas completely painted in navy blue. I
dont consider myself an artist in any way,
but I believe I could paint a canvas blue
without any difficulty. However, here was
this plain blue canvas in an art museum
that people took time and paid money to
stare at it and it was just blue.
The trip itself was comprised of my dad
checking sports scores on his phone, my
mom wondering what each art piece symbolized and me being confused at what I
was looking at. Soon, confusion turned
into boredom.
I left the museum tired after getting lost
through the endless seven stories and without having a great appreciation for art I
witnessed. The deepest thought I could conjure about the experience was that some
sculptures were cool. Most importantly, I
left without gaining any kind of knowledge
I was expecting.
Not being able to appreciate a navy blue
canvas or understanding the meaning
behind a metal box sculpture worried me. It
made me question whether I had the maturity level to find interest in these supposedly
well-crafted art pieces.
However, I realized my approach was all
wrong. Art never interested me and museums were never something I had to talk my
parents into taking me to, so why would
the Museum of Modern Art be any different?
Its not that the museum itself isnt a place
of great art masterpieces, but its that I wasnt interested in the art museum for its art; I
was only interested in what I could take

works from Mexico, Argentina, Brazil and
more. The March 11 program, titled How
to Build an Orchestra, takes the audience
on a musical tour through the four main

love, but that might be the point. The
German movie from the clearly talented and incisive writer/director Maren
Ade seems like it should be a comedy
the lightly plotted character study
is about a father trying to introduce
some chaos into his adult daughters
overworked life but its far too cutting and uncomfortable to generate
much joy.
It all hinges on how you view the
father, Winifried, played by actor Peter
Simonischek. Winifried is a heartylooking man, likely in his 60s, who
has a mop of unruly gray hair and a
penchant for what might generously
be described as pranks. He keeps a set
of fake teeth in his shirt pocket which
hell pop in from time to time when he
wants to take on one of his personas.
Hell do this with delivery people,
strangers, his mother and his extended
family. But those on the receiving end
never seem all that amused by
Winifrieds antics. Strangers dont
quite know what to do with him, and
his family just kind

of disregard his oddities
through
clenched
teeth.
Both kinds of interactions can be
almost painful to
watch and even after
two viewings I cant
get a handle on how
Maren Ade
the movie wants us
to see him, especially once he decides
to concentrate all of his efforts on his
30-something daughter, Ines (Sandra
Hller).
After seeing Ines, serious, stressed
and tethered to her phone at a family
gathering, Winifried decides to surprise her with a visit to Bucharest,
where her consulting job has stranded
her recently. He waits for Ines in the
lobby of an office building, and when
she walks in with clients, he pops in
the teeth and puts on a pair of sunglasses and walks up close to the group
of business people. Ines doesnt break
her stride, going right into the elevator complex. Did she see him? Did she
not? It turns out she did, she just chose
to ignore him. Her assistant runs out
soon after to catch Winifried and say

hello on behalf of her boss and invite
him to a reception later that day. You
can probably guess how that goes.
These two might as well be
strangers, and Winifieds presence is a
disruptive one in Ines highly structured life. As he tries harder to get her
to lighten up, she seems to get even
more tense and stressed.
Eventually Winifried tells Ines hes
leaving, only to come back and surprise her once more, this time as Toni
Erdmann fake teeth, crazy black wig
and all. He tells one of her co-workers
that hes a life coach. He tells a woman
at a party that hes the German
Ambassador. And Toni becomes Ines
companion, from the club to the countryside and at the random places he
gets invited to.
The everyday relationship between
adult parents and their adult children is
one that the movies dont often
explore, unless theres some reason
for everyone to be together an illness, a death, a fraught holiday. Its
refreshing to just have that reality be

BEVERLY HILLS Win or lose, Hollywoods biggest

stars will be looking forward to Oscar once again at
Sundays Golden Globe Awards. But not necessarily THAT
Oscar.
As longtime bartender in the shows
off-camera green room, Oscar Zuleta has
toasted with Sean Connery, gotten a head
rub from Tom Hanks and shared a selfie
with Jessica Alba. The 48-year-old
Beverly Hilton Hotel staffer keeps the
drinks flowing at the awards circuits
booziest gathering.
A lot of people know me for that - you
Oscar Zuleta
are the only Oscar at the Golden Globes,
Zuleta says. I know many of the presenters for years now
wonderful people and I get to see them every year and
they happen to remember me, luckily.
Zuleta emigrated to Los Angeles from Guatemala as a
teenager. He started working for the Hilton in 1986, at first
just pouring cups of coffee. Eventually, he landed on the
hotels banquet staff, commuting daily from the working
class Mid-City area to the mecca of affluence that is Beverly
Hills to dish out meals at business conventions or clean up
after the hotels many charity galas.
His first brush with Globes glamour was in an eighthfloor suite after-party in 1995. Tom Hanks was celebrating
his win for Forrest Gump and noticed Zuletas Oscar
name tag. He says, Come here. Let me rub your head. I
need some luck, Zuleta recalled, laughing. Hanks went on
to win at the Oscars.
One year, Zuleta delivered extra food to a Globes guest
mid-show and found himself crawling between tables as the
televised ceremony continued and while an amused
Angelina Jolie looked on. Then theres the time he held an
extended conversation with Mike Tyson in Spanish. And
Zuleta is ready with a ginger ale as soon as he spots Robert
Downey Jr.
Frankly, it wouldnt be a Golden Globes without Oscar.
Everybody looks for him, said Globes executive producer
Barry Adelman. Everybody who is anybody has been
served a drink by Oscar.
Meryl Streep, an Affleck brother or two, and dozens of
other actors will be packed into Cabana Room 138 on
Sunday as they wait their turns onstage in the hotels
International Ballroom. But Zuleta says he wont have time
to chat much as he pours out martinis and Champagne. Its
the stars loss; the bartender has stories of his own to tell.
He raised three children alone for years after his first wife,
Cecilia, died of a brain aneurysm. He saved enough money
from his unionized job to help pay tuition for his two older
daughters at East Coast colleges.
After remarrying, his current wife, Zonia, also suffered a
brain aneurysm. Shes doing OK, though, and Zuleta took
her on vacation last month to visit Californias Monterey
Bay Aquarium, the place that inspired his favorite movie of
2016, Finding Dory.

MEMORIAL
shows, Fisher thought the experience
should be preserved on film and contacted
Stevens through mutual friends. The idea
intrigued the filmmakers; Reynolds was the
last of the MGM contract employees still
performing and was a link to a disappearing
world.
Fisher became known as much for her
humorous writing as acting and, in the film,
is a one-woman one-liner machine. Both
women found the process of making a documentary difficult. Reynolds was used to
being on-camera, but not without playing a
role; she would request a non-existent
script. Fisher didnt understand how much

continuously underestimated.
Thats NASA for you. Fast with rocket
ships, slow with advancement, says
Kirsten Dunsts manager.
Johnson is pulled out of a pool of computers (human ones, though a room-sized
IBM makes a late appearance) and brought
into the all-white rocket center to check
the trajectories and calculations of the scientists rushing to match Sputnik and lift
John Glenn (Glen Powell) into space.
Their leader is Al Harrison (a fine, scenechewing Kevin Costner), who compassionately responds to Johnsons rise.
But Hidden Figures, punctuated by
bright original songs by Pharrell
Williams (who also collaborated with
Hans Zimmer and Benjamin Wallfisch on
the score), avoids many of the typical
notes of a civil rights drama and keeps its
focus on its three indomitable leads and
their characters private lives. Nobody
would mistake it for a deeply complicated
WEEKEND JOURNAL
filming would be necessary.
In the process, a story the filmmakers didnt necessarily expect made itself clear.
Carrie said, Im my moms best friend,
and thats when we knew we had a love
story, Stevens said. I wasnt sure about
that before. Then it just started unfolding as
Debbie got more and more ill and Carrie
started coming apart emotionally as a
result.
The film depicts Reynolds frailty, her
good days and bad days. One day she wasnt
up to being interviewed and called to apologize. She also had the capacity to bounce
back; filmmakers thought Reynolds final
Las Vegas appearance would be their endpoint. Instead, it turned out to be the actress
receiving a lifetime achievement award.
The archival material is rich, some shot
by Reynolds herself. A 15-year-old Carrie
sings Bridge Over Troubled Water at one
examination of segregation and no one
will wonder if Melfis film is going to end
on a high note.
Instead, Hidden Figures is a straightforward, satisfying tale of triumph, full of
warmth and crowd-pleasing scenes that its
excellent cast lends spirit and verve to.
Henson fierily delivers the films big,
cathartic moment, one that will surely resonate for audiences familiar with her
plight. In such scenes, Hidden Figures
feels both of the 60s and of now. These
are figures that have often been hidden
from movie screens, too.
But of the formidable threesome, its
Monae who most stands out. Following
her role in Barry Jenkins Moonlight
(whose Mahershala Ali also appears here,
captivatingly as a military officer and love
interest), the R&B singer has made an
altogether arresting big-screen debut this
fall. Regal, powerful and tender, she just
might be a full-on Movie Star. The real
rocket of Hidden Figures is Monae.

release, is rated PG by the Motion Picture
Association of America for thematic elements and some language. Running time:

of her moms shows, years before she met,

Simon. One memorable passage catches
Fisher visiting her father, singer Eddie
Fisher, three months before his death in
2010. HBO happened to have that footage,
never-used outtakes from a previous Carrie
Fisher project.
Bloom and Stevens took Bright Lights
to several film festivals last year. Pleased
by the outcome, both stars helped to promote it.
Stevens said he last saw them at a birthday
party for Fisher at the end of October. Fisher
was in good spirits and Reynolds seemed
healthier than she was during much of the
filming; she even walked up to Fishers
house for the party. The two women lived in
adjacent houses in a Beverly Hills,
California, compound.
He and his family were in South Africa,
where Bloom is from, when Fisher fell ill.

Its still weird to me, its still surreal, he
said. Im still kind of unsettled.
Fishers death didnt change HBOs scheduling plans, but Reynolds death did. There
was some discussion of whether HBO would
seem ghoulishly opportunistic by airing it
so quickly, but that consideration was dismissed. Stevens said he requested that HBO
seek the blessing of Fishers daughter and
brother.
He said he hoped the film would inspire
viewers to call family members they dont
speak to often enough.
Yes, its on the bandwagon of a lot of
publicity, Nevins said. But its our own
special thing. We didnt create it for the
events that happened the past two weeks.
We created it a year ago and it became relevant in terms of giving you a reason for
turning the page.

Perhaps if I took more time to read the

information plaques provided about the art
pieces, then I would have had a more successful trip. Unfortunately, I was too busy
trying to deduce which paintings I could
use in a conversation or which sculpture
would look best with which to take a
photo.
One usually needs background knowledge
and information to appreciate the full complexity of a topic and that can come from
cultural capital. Without it, one is just left
staring at navy blue canvas bewildered at
what to take from it.

from it.
The whole time I was thinking what could
I gain from this or how could I use this. Its
hard to appreciate a painting or a sculpture
when all one is doing is thinking about is
personal gain.
My interest in cultural capital is the pursuit of knowledge, but its also how to use
that knowledge to my advantage and sound
like an intellectual at family gatherings.
However, maybe just like the art museum,
the benefits of cultural capital is not for its
gains but for its ability to enhance appreciation.

Animation, sequels, superheroes

propel box office to new record
By Lindsey Bahr
et. The word isnt final on 20th Century

Foxs Assassins Creed, which just came
out on Dec. 21, but it doesnt look good. In
fact, the best showing by a game adaptation
was from an app. The Angry Birds Movie
grossed $107.5 million domestically.
LOS ANGELES A forgetful fish,

infighting superheroes and some intergalactic rebels led the North American box
office in 2016, which, with an estimated
$11. 2 billion in earnings to date, has
become the highest grossing year of all
time slightly surpassing last years
$11.1 billion record.
Those top three films, Finding Dory,
Captain America: Civil War and Rogue
One: A Star Wars Story, all had the common thread of being under the Walt Disney
Studios banner, which had its own records
to celebrate.
In general, the year looked like many others, with tent pole superhero pics, animated
features, sequels and reboots overpowering
original fare, but there was definitely something for everyone.
Hollywood built a wild roller-coaster
ride at the multiplex in 2016, with films
from every genre sparking interest from a
very vocal and engaged social media-savvy
audience who were able to make or break
some of the biggest titles of the year, said
Paul Dergarabedian, senior media analyst
for box office tracker comScore.
A few more notable takeaways from the
record-breaking year:
DISNEY IS KING, WITH

A FEW ROTTEN APPLES
With Star Wars, Marvel, Pixar, Disney
Animation and a slew of live-action reboots
of already beloved properties, Disneys tent
pole strategy paid off big-time in 2016. The
studio raked in a leading $2.96 billion in
North American grosses, with the top three
spots and six out of the top 10, including
The Jungle Book, Zootopia and Star
Wars: The Force Awakens. As Disneys distribution chief Dave Hollis noted, each of
Disneys five brands had a film this year
that became cultural events that transcend
border and language to become true global
spectacles. Disney wasnt without its own
rotten tomatoes, however, with major flops
like The BFG and The Finest Hours. But
the successes paid for the failures.
ANIMATION RULES
For the first time since 2010 with Toy
Story 3, an animated film has topped the
REBOOTS AND
SEQUELS ARENT FAILSAFE
There were a few underwhelming reboots
and sequels this year, both in quality and
box office returns. Paramounts Star Trek
Beyond underperformed with $158.8 million, as did Sonys Ghostbusters reboot,
which cost around $144 million to produce
and took in $128. 3 million in North
America. Zoolander 2 whiffed. So did
Alice Through the Looking Glass. And
then there was the Ben-Hur remake, which
cost north of $100 million and pulled in
only $27 million.
SO WHERES THE ORIGINALITY?
Disney raked in $2.96 billion in North American grosses, with the top three spots and six out
of the top 10, including The Jungle Book,Zootopia and Star Wars: The Force Awakens.
annual box office. This year, it was another
Pixar sequel, Finding Dory, with a $486.3
million North American tally. Universal
also scored big animated hits with The
Secret Life of Pets (No. 4 with $368.4 million) and Sing ($123.6 million after 10
days in theaters). In addition, Disney had
Zootopia and Moana, and DreamWorks
Animation with Trolls. Basically, animated talking animals were big (and there
could even be a case that The Jungle Book
fits in, too). A lot of animated movies were

Scott Mendelson. Audiences are still seeking the better movie.

or Marvel Comics, and thats not even

counting the fantasy sci-fi properties like
Star Wars and Star Trek. Even newbies
like Deadpool and Doctor Strange did
well, thanks to social media buzz, despite
being lesser known characters. Others, like
Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice and
Suicide Squad, may have taken a beating
online, but still ended up profitable.
GAME OVER ON VIDEO GAME MOVIES

Thats a little hyperbolic; Hollywood is
going to keep trying to get the video game
adaptation right, of course. But this year
wasnt exactly a promising showing, with
Universals Warcraft, one of the biggest
bombs of the year, earning only $47.2 million domestically on a $160 million budg-
If you want something original and massively successful and live action, its probably going to be a comedy. Theres the
exception of The Revenant, which
opened in 2015 yet still placed 14th this
year with $182.8 million. But you basically have to look all the way down to No. 21
on the year-end list to find a new non-animated, non-sequel, non-adaptation
Warner Bros. $50 million Dwayne
Johnson and Kevin Hart buddy comedy
Central Intelligence, which grossed
$127.4 million. After that, its STXs sleeper hit Bad Moms, which cost a lean $20
million to produce, at No. 25 with $113.3
million (a sequel has already been
announced). There were some underwhelming attempts, too (Allied) and all out
flops (Rules Dont Apply, The Nice
Guys). Meanwhile, its still early, but
most of the critically praised awards films
arent exactly proving to be blockbuster
hits, either. Mendelson says La La Land
might sing its way to $50 million, yet others, like Moonlight, will be lucky to
crack $20 million.
Critics impact box office! Wait, no they

dont! Anyone paying attention this year
likely saw both of these sentiments bandied
about in talking about superhero movies,
but the truth is, the superhero pic still has
muscles to spare and it shows. Seven out of
the top 20 movies this year were either DC

voted to proceed with an ordinance to
hike how much candidates can accept.
The changes include allowing individuals to contribute $500, up from $250,
toward a candidate, and permitting
organizations to offer $1,000, up from
$500.
Although the increase has been
talked about for more than a year, it
comes on the heels of an election when
an abnormally large amount of money
was sunk into a city election.
Advocates for and against Measure Q
the failed citizens initiative to
enact rent control collectively
raised nearly $1 million. The majority
of the financing came from lobbyist
groups such as the San Mateo County
Association of Realtors and the
California Apartment Association to
oppose the measure.
The new campaign contribution limits will not affect elections regarding
measures, but the recent interest in a
San Mateo race did give the mayor
pause.
Its a double-edged sword, Mayor
David Lim said.
On the one hand, allowing people to
raise more funds could prove useful if
they face opposition from lobbyist
groups; on the other, it could also prevent your average passionate citizen
from making their political foray if
they dont have a built-in hefty pool of
supporters, he said.
My fear now from the last election,
is that people will take a look at it and
STORMS
Bay City News Service the storm is
forecast to be a 10-year storm, which
does not mean a storm like this happens every 10 years.
Rather, it means there is a 10 percent
chance a storm like this occurs any
year, Garcia said.
Its not a historic storm, he said.
Historically its nothing out of the
ordinary.
Yet the last time the Peninsula saw
this type of extreme weather was likely back in December 2014 or as far
back as 2005, Schneider said.
Between Saturday and Monday morning, inland areas of San Mateo County
are expected to get about 3 to 5 inches
of rain and winds of 20 mph to 30 mph
with gusts up to 45 mph. Areas in the
mountains can expect harsher conditions with an estimated 7.25 inches of
rain and gusts of up to 60 mph,
Schneider said.

say special interests can spend a lot of
money, send out a lot of glossy fliers
and win an election, Lim said. On the
flip side, I have faith in our community that we have a very intelligent and
engaged community and that theyll
chose councilmembers who really
speak for our community and the values and what we care for.
Lim said he didnt pull the proposal
off Tuesdays consent calendar knowing that his colleagues had supported
the issue during a recent study session.
If approved during a second reading,
the ordinance would go into effect
within 30 days. Theoretically, it could
affect any councilmember or person
planning to run for an office at any
time. But in the near term, three seats
are up for grabs in the 2017 election.
Deputy Mayor Rick Bonilla,
Councilman Joe Goethals and Lims
terms are slated to expire. Although
theres still time to decide, Lim
acknowledged hes leaning away from
running for re-election citing more
time with family as the primary driver.
Goethals said he believed Measure Q
and the money dumped into the campaigns was an anomaly and felt council donation limits werent directly
related.
Instead, he noted those who ran during the last council race in 2015 complained about the difficulty of raising
funds with the restrictions. Plus, candidates could soon have to spend more
to get voters attention.
We, like many cities, are headed
toward even-year elections, which
means the number of voters youre
going to have to reach out to could be
significantly increased. So I think
those are real concerns and I think in
order to level the playing field for

everyone, you want to make it easier
for people to raise money. Someone
who is self funded or whos backed by a
big pocket would have a significant
advantage over a person who has to
raise the money from a lot of different
sources, Goethals said.
Bonilla, who was appointed to the
council and elected in 2015 to serve
out a two-year term remainder, noted
its expensive to run a campaign. With
the cost of postage having gone up 50
percent since 2004 but their contribution limits having sat stagnant,
increasing contribution limits is about
keeping pace with the times, he said.
The simple truth is that the cost of
running a campaign has gone up. It did
go up consistent with the cost of living, Bonilla said, adding the new limits are also about having more parity
with the surrounding cities.
Other than Belmont, Burlingame and
Half Moon Bay, San Mateo is the only
city to have limits and currently has
some of the lowest in the county,
according to a staff report.
Bonilla said he felt comfortable raising the limits, but agreed hed be concerned by the prospect of eliminating
them.
Money in elections is proving to
be a major issue considering the
sources of the money quite often; people have to pay to play, Bonilla said.
Well here in San Mateo, everyone is
limited to the same amount and that
levels the playing field and it makes it
fair and I think in that context, were
still making ourselves available and
certainly reaching out to all of the
average voters in San Mateo.
in San Mateo County, she warned.

Emergency responders are urging
residents to prepare for torrential rains
this weekend and possibly longer.
Cleaning out storm drains, loading up
sandbags, keeping flashlights ready
and avoiding the roads if possible are
just a few recommendations, said sheriffs Lt. Scott Kirkpatrick.
The countys Office of Emergency
Services will ramp up operations 24/7
this weekend while working with
cities, police departments, Pacific Gas
and Electric, and other first responders, he said.
Be cautious out there, Kirkpatrick
said. The way were approaching it is
through preparation and we recommend citizens do the same.
OES will be paying special attention
to areas with known flood risks and
coordinating with other agencies as
needed. With the potential for fallen
debris or power lines to create hazardous road conditions, Kirkpatrick
urged people to stay indoors if possible.
Unless you have to drive, staying
out of the storm would be a good idea,
he said.
During this last weeks storm and

cold temperatures, black ice was
reported on Highway 35 along Skyline
Boulevard and portions of Pescadero
Creek Road closed due to flooding.
The severity of this weekends
weather has prompted the county to
initiate its inclement weather program, which offers an additional 38
shelter beds, said Effie Verducci,
spokeswoman with the countys
Human Services Agency.
This weekends weather forecast is
pretty severe, Verducci said. If anybody needs to find shelter or other
emergency services, contact law
enforcement. All of our local police
departments know how to connect
folks to a shelter bed. Were also
coordinating with cities and the Red
Cross to be on alert in case those who
are housed end up being displaced due
to flooding.
There are 30 self-serv e sandbag stations throughout San Mateo County.

NOTICE OF PETITION TO
ADMINISTER ESTATE OF
Clotilde Carcamo
Case Number: 16PRO00662
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or estate, or both, of Clotilde Carcamo. A Petition for Probate has been filed by Jorge
E. Carcamo in the Superior Court of California, County of San Mateo. The Petition for Probate requests that Jorge E.
Carcamo be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of
the decedent. The petition requests authority to administer the estate under the
Independent Administration of Estates
Act. (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions
without obtaining court approval. Before
taking certain very important actions,
however, the personal representative will
be required to give notice to interested
persons unless they have waived notice
or consented to the proposed action.)
The independent administration authority
will be granted unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and
shows good cause why the court should
not grant the authority.
A hearing on the petition will be held in
this court as follows: February 01, 2017
at 9:00 a.m., Department 28, Superior
Court of California, County of San Mateo,
400 County Center, Redwood City, CA
94063.
If you object to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing
and state your objections or file written
objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person
or by your attorney.
If you are a creditor or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your
claim with the court and mail a copy to
the personal representative appointed by
the court within the later of either (1) four
months from the date of first issuance of
letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the
Calilfornia Probate Code, or (2) 60 days
from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under sectioin
9052 of the Callifornia Probate
Code.Other California statutes and legal
authority may affect your rights as a
creditor. You may want to consult with an
attorney knowledgable in California law.
You may examine the file kept by the
court. If you are a person interested in
the estate, you may file with the court a
Request for Special Notice (form DE154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any petition
or account as provided in Probate Code
section 1250. A Request for Special Notice form is available from the court clerk.

RIO DE JANEIRO Thirty-one inmates were slain Friday

in northern Brazil, some with their hearts and intestines
ripped out, during a prison killing spree led by the countrys largest gang, authorities said.
The bloodshed comes just days after 60 inmates were
killed during rioting at two prisons in a neighboring state
and it increases fears that violence could spread, including
to the streets of major cities, as gangs vie for influence and
territory both inside prisons and in slums where trafficking
operations are often based.
Its also becoming a flashpoint for the government of
President Michel Temer, whose administration is already
struggling with an economic crisis and mounting corruption allegations. Authorities of the state of Roraima, on the
border with Venezuela, said they requested help from
Brazils federal government more than once to deal with its
prison crisis, but no support was sent.
This is a national crisis, said Uziel Castro, security secretary of the state where the latest massacre happened.
Castro said the slaying spree began around 2:30 a.m.
Friday at the Agricultural Penitentiary of Monte Cristo in
the town of Boa Vista. He said it was led by members of Sao
Paulo-based First Command, Brazils biggest criminal
organization.
He said First Command members did not attack members
of a rival gang, but rather other prisoners, for motives that
were not yet clear.
There was no confrontation, this was a killing spree,
said Castro. It was barbaric. Some were beheaded, others
had their hearts or intestines ripped out.
Castro said firearms were not involved, and none of the
1,500 inmates in the prison built for about 700 had
escaped.
It wasnt immediately clear whether there was a connection to the gruesome rioting earlier this week in the neighboring state of Amazonas, which officials blamed on a gang
war between the First Command and Family of the North,
which fight over control of prisons and drug routes in
northern Brazil along the borders of Bolivia, Colombia,
Venezuela, Peru and the Guianas.
Brazils justice secretary lowered the death to 31 later
Friday after authorities said throughout the day that 33 had
been killed.
A police statement said officers, including a heavily
armed military-like riot squad, had been deployed to the
prison.
Just as details about the latest disturbance were emerging,
Justice Minister Alexandre de Moraes announced measures
to curb the violence.
Moraes said federal police would be more integrated in
state capitals and that special task forces would be created
to more quickly process criminal charges, a measure aimed
at reducing overcrowding. Moraes offered no deadlines for
the initiatives but said they would be realistic given the
recession in Latin Americas largest economy.
DEA opens shop in China to

fight synthetic drug trade
By Erika Kinetz
SHANGHAI In a sign of improving cooperation between

the U.S. and China to fight the global drug trade, the Drug
Enforcement Administration will open a new office there and
its top chief will visit next week for the first time in more
than a decade.
The DEA said acting administrator Chuck Rosenberg will
visit Beijing, Guangzhou and Hong Kong Monday through
Thursday, at the invitation of Chinas Ministry of Public
Security. The last time the head of the DEA visited the country
was 2005.
The planned new office in the city of Guangzhou will likely
be staffed with two special agents, pending final approvals,
said Russell Baer, a DEA special agent in Washington.
DEA maintains that China is the top source country for synthetic opioids like fentanyl and its precursors, which have
been fueling the deadliest drug abuse epidemic in U.S. history. China is also emerging as a laundering destination for drug
money, according to a U.S. Justice Department indictment
unsealed in 2015.
Intelligence and investigative information have shown
that Guangzhou has strong ties to international drug trafficking organizations operating in China and elsewhere, Baer
said in an email. These criminal groups in Guangzhou utilize
trade-based money laundering schemes to legitimize drug
profits, use the port facilities as a transit point to ship illegal
narcotics, and purchase synthetic drugs along with precursor
chemicals.
Chinese officials dispute claims that China is the main
source of fentanyl and precursors, noting that the U.S. has
produced little supporting data. Nonetheless, Beijing has
taken significant steps to crack down on the production and
export of synthetic drugs, even though these substances are
not widely abused within China.
