Density, traffic top concerns for Black Mountain plan

Project for hillside property in San Carlos go up for further study
By Anna Schuessler
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
How Dragonfly Group’s plan to build
68 three-story townhomes on one of
San Carlos’ Black Mountain proper-
ties will affect traffic on nearby
streets, water runoff, emergency access
and trees on the site were among the
project’s environmental effects resi-
dents and officials pegged for further
study at the San Carlos Planning
Commission’s Monday meeting.
Situated west of Alameda de las
Pulgas and between Madera Avenue and
Melendy Drive, the site where
Dragonfly is preparing to build 14
clusters of homes currently includes
three residences standing on the for-
mer home of the Black Mountain

build a mix of single-family homes

north of the Dragonfly project is also
in the works, she noted.
The properties where at least 130
residences are now planned were the
subject of 2015’s Measure V. Aimed at
protecting the sites from development
and preserving them for open space
and recreational use, the Measure V
effort sought to raise the some $86
million required to purchase and
improve the land but ultimately failed,
garnering less than 40 percent of the
vote when it needed two-thirds majori-

Man faces four years prison for burglary spree
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
A 30-year-old South San Francisco man is
facing four years in state prison Tuesday
after he pleaded no contest to several felony
charges for a two-day car and home burglary
spree he went on in Half Moon Bay in
November, according to the San Mateo
County District Attorney’s Office.
In custody on $225, 000 bail, Luis
Ledezmaespinoza pleaded no contest to
felony car theft, evading a police officer and
residential burglary Tuesday and will next
appear in court for sentencing April 17,
according to prosecutors.
Ledezmaespinoza is believed to have
stolen at least four vehicles and broken into
two garages in a two-day period starting
Nov. 28. He is said to have stolen two vehi-
cles from the garages of homes in Half
Moon Bay and taken two other cars parked
on the street during the spree, hitting
another car and causing damage before flee-
ing the scene, according to prosecutors.
Ledezmaespinoza is also believed to have
led California Highway Patrol officers on a
high-speed chase beginning at Skyline
Boulevard and Kings Mountain Road and
was eventually able to get away. He was
later seen by San Mateo County sheriff’s
deputies in a stolen truck at Miramontes
Road in Woodside and fled on foot. Deputies
found him three hours later hiding under a
bridge, having covered himself in mud to
disguise himself, according to prosecutors.
District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe

no one was hurt during the man’s crime

“I’m just pleased that the case is resolved

increasing number of migrants arriving at the border, as seen from Ciudad Juarez, Mexico.
Record-breaking family
migration overwhelming
border agency, facilities
By Colleen Long
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — The number of migrant
families crossing the southwest border is
again breaking records, and the crush is
overwhelming border agents and straining
facilities, officials said Tuesday.
More than 76,000 migrants crossed the
U.S.-Mexico border last month, more than
double the number from the same period last
year. Most were families coming in ever-
increasingly large groups — there were 70
groups of more than 100 people in the past
few months, and they cross illegally in
extremely rural locations with few agents
and staff. There were only 13 large groups
during the previous budget year, and only
two the year before.
The system “is well beyond capacity, and
remains at the breaking point, ” U. S.
Customs and Border Protection
Commissioner Kevin McAleenan said a
press conference Tuesday.
The new figures reflect the difficulties

nature issue. But it could also help him make
the case that there truly is a national emer-
gency at the border — albeit one built
around humanitarian crises and not neces-
sarily border security. The Senate is expect-
ed to vote next week and join the House in
rejecting his national emergency declara-
tion aimed at building border walls, but
Trump would almost certainly veto the
measure and the issue is likely to be settled
in the courts.
After the deaths of two migrant children in
Border Patrol custody, Customs and Border
Protection stepped up medical screenings.
They also announced sweeping changes
including more rigorous interviews as
migrants come into the system.
And McAleenan said a new processing
center would be built in El Paso, Texas, that
will be better suited to manage families and
children and handle medical care concerns
— but it’s not a permanent solution.
“While our enhanced medical efforts will
assist in managing the increased flows, the
fact is that these solutions are temporary
and this solution is not sustainable,” he
said.
FDA chief Scott Gottlieb steps
down after nearly two years
By Matthew Perrone
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Food and Drug
Administration Commissioner Scott
Gottlieb is stepping down after nearly two
years leading the agency’s response to a
host of public health challenges, including
the opioid epidemic, rising drug prices and
underage vaping.
Gottlieb cited “the challenge of being
apart from my family” in Connecticut when
announcing his departure Tuesday in a note
to FDA staff. He’ll leave next month.
President Donald Trump tapped Gottlieb
in 2017 to “cut red tape” at the FDA. But
Gottlieb bucked expectations by pushing
the agency to expand its authorities in sev-
eral key ways, including an unprecedented
effort to make cigarettes less addictive by
requiring lower nicotine levels .
The 46-year-old physician and former
conservative pundit advanced his agenda
while managing to maintain the support of
the president, Republicans and key
Democrats in Congress.
Still, he departs with his most sweeping

Scott Gottlieb through to fruition,” said
Dr. David Kessler, who
led the FDA from 1990 to 1997. “In the end
you have to bring those things home.”
Harvard University professor Daniel
Carpenter said Gottlieb benefited from com-
parisons with more unconventional, anti-
regulatory Trump appointees.
“He could govern from a place of modera-
tion and get all the more credit because so
many other agencies and positions under the
Trump administration were either falling
apart or vacant,” said Carpenter, who has
written extensively on the FDA. In recent
months, Gottlieb has come under fire for not
acting more forcefully to address an explo-
sion in teenage use of electronic cigarettes,
especially those with candy and fruit flavors.

Man jailed for chase and caught up to him, Lee sprayed

alleged attempted murder
A 21-year-old San Mateo man is facing 11
years to life in prison on an attempted murder
charge after he allegedly hit a man he got
into a fight with early Sunday morning with
a metal jack lift handle, according to the San
Mateo County District Attorney’s Office.
Charged with attempted murder with an
allegation of pre-meditation and felony
assault with a deadly weapon, Donis
Bautistavasquez did not enter a plea when he
appeared in court Tuesday, when the private
defender program was appointed to his case,
according to prosecutors.
Bautistavasquez was allegedly drinking
beers with two others in a car outside his
apartment building on the 100 block of
North Idaho Street a little after midnight
March 3. Though it’s currently unclear how
the fight started, Bautistavasquez and one of
the others in the car allegedly began arguing
inside, causing the man he was arguing with
to get out and walk away, according to prose-
cutors.
Bautistavasquez allegedly followed the
man and hit him in the back of the head with
a metal jack lift handle, causing the alleged
victim to fall face down on the ground.
Though the other man in the car tried to sep-
Local briefs
arate the men, Bautistavasquez allegedly hit
the victim at least one more time before he
ran away from the scene, according to prose-
cutors.
Currently in intensive care with a skull
fracture, the victim has undergone surgery
and it is currently unknown if additional sur-
geries will be needed, according to prosecu-
tors.
In custody on no bail, Bautistavasquez will
next appear in court March 11 for appearance
of a designated attorney and entry of plea,
according to prosecutors.
Four officers injured
while taking man into custody
Four officers were injured while taking a
man into custody in South San Francisco on
Sunday after he allegedly stole a man’s cell-
phone from his vehicle and sprayed him with
a can of insect killer when he tried to inter-
vene, police said Tuesday.
Julian Lee, a 30-year-old transient, was
arrested after a 58-year-old man found Lee
rummaging through his vehicle in the first
block of Tanforan Avenue shortly after 9:20
a.m. Sunday, according to police.
Lee tried to flee and when the victim gave
toward his face with the insect killer, then
continued to flee and scaled a fence and ran
away along the 300 block of South Maple
Avenue, police said.
Officers found Lee and eventually appre-
hended him after a chase, but he resisted their
attempts to handcuff him, causing injuries to
the four officers. Two had to be treated at a
hospital before being released, according to
police.
Lee was also treated at a hospital for minor
abrasions before being released and booked
into San Mateo County Jail.
Two found dead Sunday
believed to be murder-suicide
Two people found dead inside a Pacifica
home on Sunday afternoon are believed to
have died in a murder-suicide, police said
Tuesday.
The pair has been identified as AnaMarie
Alba, 39, and Johny Tu, 31, both of Pacifica,
according to police.
Authorities responded around 12:30 p.m.
to a home on the 1100 block of Banyan Way
and found Alba and Tu dead. A preliminary
investigation indicates it was a murder-sui-
cide, but police did not say who was the
alleged murder victim.
Ethics commissioner
Kopp resigns citing frustration
Former state senator Quentin Kopp on
Tuesday announced he’s resigning from the
San Francisco Ethics Commission after hav-
ing served as commissioner for more than
two years, citing frustration with the com-
mission’s practices.
Kopp, a former city supervisor, former
state senator and retired San Mateo County
judge, was first appointed to the Ethics
Commission in 2016 by the Board of
Supervisors to replace Brett Andrews. Kopp
was then reappointed in 2017 for a six-year
term. Announcing his resignation at City
Hall, Kopp, 90, said the commission was
misleading the public in that its investiga-
tions into political corruption happening in
the city are ultimately ineffective.
“What I have observed is almost an ama-
teurish effort in regards to investigations,”
he said, citing an investigation in which
commission investigators failed to inter-
view the subjects of an investigation under
oath and instead interviewed the subjects’
lawyers.
Kopp also said the commission takes
between two months to nearly a year to
decide on whether it will proceed with an
investigation.

Donald Trump speaks during a ceremony to sign an executive order on veterans suicide prevention.
As investigations swirl, Trump
team ready to fight and distract
By Catherine Lucey
and Zeke Miller
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — The White House
has beefed up its legal team. Its politi-
cal team is ready to distract and dispar-
age. And President Donald Trump is
venting against Democratic prying.
Trump’s plan for responding to the
multiplying congressional probes into
his campaign, White House and person-
al affairs is coming into focus as newly
empowered Democrats intensify their
efforts. Deploying a mix of legal leg-
work and political posturing, the
administration is trying to minimize
its exposure while casting the president
as the victim of overzealous partisans.
“It’s a disgrace, it’s a disgrace for our
country,” Trump said at the White House
on Tuesday as he accused Democrats of
AMA: Trump family-planning abortion rule risks health crisis
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
The American Medical Association
and Planned Parenthood filed a federal
court lawsuit Tuesday challenging a

tion activists.
The new rule, announced last week
by the Department of Health and

“presidential harassment.”
Typically used to setting the national
or global agenda, presidents are by def-
inition on their back foot when they
come under investigation. And the lat-
est fusillade of requests for information
has the Trump White House, already
increasingly focused on the twin chal-
lenges of dealing with the probes and
the 2020 election, in a reactive posi-
tion.
Trump’s response points to his
increasing frustration with Congress
and his intention to seize on the inves-
tigations as evidence that he is under
siege in Washington.
While Trump is far from the first pres-
ident to bristle at Capitol Hill over-
sight, his enthusiastic embrace of
political victimhood is still novel —
and stands to serve as a key part of his
re-election argument. Trump has made

eral Title X program from making
abortion referrals — a provision that
critics denounce as a “gag rule.”
Clinics that receive Title X grants
also would be barred from sharing
office space with abortion providers
— a requirement that would in many
cases boost costs for providers like
Planned Parenthood that offer abor-
tions and other services, including

That attitude was emphasized Tuesday

The result of the rule, if implement-

for sexually transmitted infections and
cancer screens — putting patients and
their partners at great health risk,” the
lawsuit said.

Ex-NYC Mayor Bloomberg
won’t run for president in 2020
Michael Bloomberg is not running for president.
The 77-year-old former New York City mayor, one of the
richest men in the world, announced his
decision not to join the crowded
Democratic field in a Bloomberg News
editorial on Tuesday.
“I know we can do better as a country.
And I believe I would defeat Donald
Trump in a general election,” he wrote.
“But I am clear-eyed about the difficulty
of winning the Democratic nomination
in such a crowded field.”
Michael Bloomberg has flirted with a presiden-
Bloomberg tial run before, but as an independent. He
registered as a Democrat last fall and spent recent months
courting primary voters as a political centrist. But as an
older white man with strong ties to Wall Street, he likely
would have struggled to win over the Democratic Party’s
energized liberal base that’s increasingly embracing diver-
sity.
He encouraged Democrats to unify behind a nominee who
could beat Trump, a not-so-subtle dig against candidates
pushing the party to embrace liberal priorities such as
“Medicare-for-all.”
“It’s essential that we nominate a Democrat who will be
in the strongest position to defeat Donald Trump and bring
our country back together,” he wrote. “We cannot allow the
primary process to drag the party to an extreme that would
diminish our chances in the general election and translate
into ‘Four More Years.”’
Bloomberg is expected to play an active role in the 2020
election from the outside. In his editorial, he said he would
focus on combating climate change and addressing gun vio-
lence.
Hillary Clinton rules out
2020 rematch with Donald Trump
WASHINGTON — Hillary Clinton says she won’t run for
president in 2020, but vows she’s “not going anywhere.”
The former secretary of state, senator
and first lady ruled out another campaign
during an interview posted Monday by
New York TV station News12 .
Clinton, who lost the 2016 presiden-
tial election to Donald Trump, says, “I’m
going to keep on working and speaking
and standing up for what I believe.”
She says, “What’s at stake in our coun-
try, the kind of things that are happen-
Hillary Clinton ing right now are deeply troubling to
me.”
She says she has spoken with several of the candidates
seeking the Democratic presidential nomination, and has
told them, “Don’t take anything for granted, even though
we have a long list of real problems and broken promises”
from the Trump administration.
Trump aims to stem vet
suicide with outreach, local grants
WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump’s administra-
tion is seeking to stem the number of veteran suicides with
a plan to boost outreach by awarding grants to community
programs.
Trump is signing an order Tuesday that directs his agen-
cies to develop the plan within 12 months.
A new task force will look to create a grant system simi-
lar to the Housing and Urban Development-VA Supportive
Housing program, which provides funding to state and local
programs. It will also aim to better coordinate research on
suicide across agencies.
Currently, about 20 veterans die by suicide each day, near-
ly twice the rate among the civilian population. Officials
say about 14 of those 20 were not under VA care, pointing
to a need for improved outreach.

Omar the flashpoint as Dems
confront divide over Israel
By Laurie Kellman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Back in January,
the Democrats welcomed their brash
young newcomers to Congress with
smiles and hugs. That was before the
new colleagues dragged the party’s
simmering divisions over Israel out
in the open.
Provocative comments from Rep.
Ilhan Omar of Minnesota have thrust
the Democrats into an uncomfortable
debate over Israel policy a few weeks
before a high-profile conference
where senior Democrats typically
make a show of support for the
Jewish state. Increasingly, the rift
appears as much generational as ideo-
logical, with newly elected
Democrats showing less deference to
the party line.
Omar became the flash point after
she suggested last week that Israel’s
supporters are pushing U.S. lawmak-
ers to take a pledge of “allegiance to a
foreign country.” It’s at least the third
time she has forced older, pro-Israel
Democrats who run the House into
awkward territory over U. S. -Israeli
policy.
Republicans have been happy to
stoke the furor, with President Donald
Trump calling Omar’s remarks “a dark
day for Israel” and posting a photo of
himself in Jerusalem. Inside the
Democratic family, meanwhile, lead-
ers are in a bind, torn between a need

This time Omar is not apologizing.
And this time pro-Israel Democrats
led by Speaker Nancy Pelosi are not
just warning her about the dangers of
Jewish tropes. They’re expected to
offer a resolution condemning anti-
Semitism on the House floor.

ally have an insidious, bigoted histo-
ry,” an early draft of the resolution

Despite the cold, New
Orleans celebrates Mardi Gras
NEW ORLEANS — The streets of New Orleans were filled
Tuesday with excited kids hoping to catch beads from atop
ladders, revelers in fancy costumes walking through the
French Quarter and Mardi Gras Indians wearing finely beaded
costumes.
Tuesday marks the final day of the Mardi Gras season,
which started Jan. 6.
After rainy weather affected some parades Sunday, the
weather Tuesday was cold but sunny. People — some of
whom came out before dawn to get a good spot along the
parade route — bundled up under multiple layers.
Temperatures in the New Orleans area were in the 30s and 40s
Tuesday morning.
Lorenzo Bridgewater of Slidell, Louisiana, got to the
parade route at about 4:30 a.m. to get a good spot.
“I doubled up my jeans, doubled up my socks. I’m wearing
a sweater underneath this and underneath that a thermal with
a shirt over it. So I’m pretty layered up,” he said.
The festivities kicked off early in the morning with the
Northside Skull and Bone Gang walking through the Treme
neighborhood before the sun was up, wearing costumes that
look like skeletons and waking people up to celebrate the
day.
Another crowd favorite is Pete Fountain’s Half-Fast
Walking Group. The clarinetist died in 2016 but the walking
group that he led for years still meets at Commander’s Palace
restaurant and walks along the parade route ahead of the
parades.
Lance Pierce, of Leonardtown, Maryland, got up early
ahead of the rest of his friends to make sure he saw the group.
Tornado forecasting
improves, but still deaths keep coming
WASHINGTON — Sometimes in forecasting tornadoes,
you can get everything technically right, and yet it all goes
horribly wrong.
Three days before the killer Alabama tornado struck, gov-
ernment severe-storm meteorologists cautioned that condi-
tions could be ripe for twisters in the Southeast on Sunday.
Then, an hour before the tragedy, they warned that a strong
tornado could occur in two particular Alabama counties with-
in 30 to 60 minutes.
And that’s what happened.
Yet 23 people died.
To a meteorologist, the forecast was the equivalent of a
hole-in-one in golf or a slam dunk, but with so many people
killed, “was it a success or a failure or both?” asked Colorado
State University meteorology professor Russ Schumacher.
Forecasters “painted a pretty clear picture that something
bad was going to happen,” Schumacher said, and “there’s
certainly success in that. On the other hand, we don’t like to
see entire communities to be turned upside-down like this.
So there’s more to be done.”
Predicting with any precision where a tornado is going to
go is still beyond the limits of meteorology, which is why
warnings went out for a large two-county area when a torna-
do might be only half a mile wide. And getting people to lis-
ten and take precautions is another matter altogether.
Forecasting tornadoes combines the hard physics of mete-
orology, the softer human factors of social science and more
than a dash of chaos.

Promoting civic engagement — it’s in my DNA What’d ya say?
By Kevin Mullin
M
y interest in civic engage-
ment started early. When
your father is a high
school government teacher and your
mother enjoys a lively discussion at
the dinner table, you learn early on
that civic engagement and being an
active participant in the political
process gives you a voice in your
local, state and national government.
Even if your preferred candidate isn’t
successful, your vote always counts.
As a senior in high school, I partic-
ipated in the city of South San
Francisco’s Youth Government Day
program (which my father Gene
Mullin founded). This provided me
with an opportunity to see firsthand
the inner workings of local govern-
ment. Later in life, as a member of the
South San Francisco City Council, I
participated in the program as an
elected official and remember quite
clearly the energy and interest shown
by the students that shadowed me.
Now, as a member of the state
Assembly, I am a proud to continue
my advocacy for civic engagement
and good government and have
authored Assembly Constitutional
Amendment 4, which would allow 17-
year-olds to vote in primary elec-
tions, provided they will be 18 by the
time of the general election. Once
again, I have a connection with my
father Gene Mullin, who served as a
member of the state Assembly and
authored similar legislation.

hundreds of units of housing on the

Studies show that
voting is habit
forming and I
believe it’s a habit
worth encouraging.
Since young peo-
ple typically have
their first contact
with the political
process in their
mandatory high school civics or gov-
ernment class, it’s the perfect time to
engage them in the political process
by making it possible for them to
vote in the primaries.
ACA 4 is very specific. It only
allows those 17-year-olds who will be
18 by the general election to vote in
the corresponding primary. High
school students are organizing at very
high levels, with “March for our
Lives” a perfect example of the pas-
sion and commitment that exists.
These same individuals are volunteer-
ing for campaigns and becoming
increasingly involved in a variety of
significant social issues, so why
wouldn’t we want them to channel
that passion and energy into the pri-
mary voting booth?
While some may question the abili-
ty of young voters to cast a meaning-
ful vote, research shows that 17-year-
olds are as informed and engaged as
older voters. Young people are direct-
ly affected by issues like employment
initiatives, affordable housing and
education funding. They have what I
would call “skin in the game” on
these and other issues and I believe we
should be looking for ways to ampli-
needs. This was in recognition of the
fact that the board’s existing plan was
hatched years ago in the wake of the
foreclosure crisis when housing costs
were in decline. It was a different
world at the time, and community
needs have changed.
The call to re-evaluate the plan has
been echoed by state Sen. Jerry Hill,
D-San Mateo; Assemblyman Kevin
Mullin, D-South San Francisco;
Bruno Mayor Rico Medina; San
Mateo Councilman Joe Goethals;
Burlingame Councilman Michael
Brownrigg; and many others. As the
chorus of voices grows, we can only
hope that the PHCD board will sit up
and listen. In the words of Woody
Guthrie, this land is our land, and it
must be used to address our most
pressing public needs.       things or thinking about what we want to say to counter-

“I want to reach your mind. Where is it currently
located?” — Ashleigh Brilliant.
When we read or hear about the problems that so many
of our government leaders of opposing ideologies have
with communicating with each other, it is quite bewilder-
ing. This has much to do with inhibiting any kind of
progress our politicians may make in working together
and moving our nation ahead in a positive direction.
Do you ever wonder why it is so difficult for so many of
us to communicate so that we really understand each other
and feel some kind of emotional or intellectual connec-
tion? The inability to communicate well affects every-
thing from interpersonal, social and even national and
international diplomacy.
This came to mind when Congress recently “changed the
guard,” so to speak. With the rigid attitude of so many
politicians and the controversial issues sure to arise, it
seems that better communication is essential. Yet, in
spite of the fact that we have good hearing and speak the
same language, there don’t seem to be many of us who can
communicate really well — in a way that we get the mes-
sage being offered to each
other. 
Once in a while we meet
someone who we are with
for a short time and feel a
kind of instant rapport. But
there are others who we can
be with all day, all year or
even a lifetime with whom
we never feel that we have
really connected. Our rela-
tionship remains essential-
ly superficial. Of course, we
don’t necessarily want to
communicate on a personal
or intellectual level with
everyone. But being able to adequately and meaningfully
communicate with important others is very important to a
satisfying and fulfilling life (and to congressional
debates).
Whether we are giving someone directions to our home,
trying to explain a faux pas we made, or discussing our
views about tax cuts, there are many things that can get in
the way of understanding. The following are some barriers
to good communication that affect us all at one time or
another and will be complicating congressional action
and no doubt affecting our president’s decisions as 2019
marches on.
1). We may have preconceived ideas that get in the way.
For instance: “You are a Democrat, so you couldn’t possi-
bly know what you are talking about.” Or, “There’s only
one way to think. My way.”
2). We may be coming from totally different perspec-
tives. Many things, such as a limited vocabulary or cultur-
al differences can cause us to misunderstand. Though we
must not expect the other person to be just like us, the
people we communicate with best are those who are will-
ing to at least respect our point of view. “You need to
transform your self into language, based on your ability
‘to hand yourself over to others’ via your words. It doesn’t
need to be eloquent or fluent, but reflect some of the per-
son behind it.” — John Stewart, “Bridges, not Walls.”
3). Poor communication can go back to childhood expe-
rience. Some children, as Bruno Bettelheim wrote, “sur-
render the use of language because of parental disap-
proval. They give up hope of influencing their world.”
4). We may be preoccupied. Having our minds on other
act some point, can keep us from connecting.
5). We have developed no empathy — no ability to put
ourselves in other people’s shoes. This relates to psycho-
logical aberrations such as narcissism, in which the per-
son is only interested in impressing others by making
her/himself look important. They may act like they’re
very interested in us, but it’s all an act.
6). A person has been playing a role for so long that he
is never truly himself. “If a person’s language is weak,
insipid, cliché ridden and consistently ritualistic in social
situations, this says much about the person’s ability and
willingness to relate to himself and others. Language not
only reflects his encapsulation, but becomes one of his
instruments of his self-imprisonment,” — “Bridges, Not
Walls.”
If, during our lives, we are not capable of communicat-
ing well most of the time with at least those close to us,
we will very likely have the feeling (conscious or uncon-
scious) that something is missing, that we are all alone in
an indifferent, impersonal world and that we must keep our
defenses always at the ready. Those in Congress whose
minds are so sclerotic that any kind of fruitful connection
and interaction is impossible and a president who is total-
ly obsessed with himself can do nothing but jeopardize
the future of our democracy.
“I waited and waited, and when no message came, I knew
it must be from you.” — Brilliant.

Industrial, tech companies pull stocks lower
By Damian J. Troise and Alex Veiga
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
A mostly listless day on Wall Street ended
Tuesday with stocks closing slightly lower
as losses in industrial, technology and
financial stocks outweighed gains else-
where in the market.
Stocks wavered between small gains and
losses through much of the day, with com-
munications companies and retailers buck-
ing the overall market decline. Mixed data
on new U. S. home sales pulled home-
builders lower.
The stagnant trading came as investors
looked ahead to a busy stretch of economic
data releases later this week and the Federal
Reserve’s next interest rate policy meeting
in two weeks. Meanwhile, traders continued
to wait for new details on the trade talks
between the U.S. and China.
Stock prices already reflect the recent
investor optimism that the world’s biggest
economies are close to reaching a deal,
noted Bill Northey, senior investment
director at U.S. Bank Wealth Management.
“We’ll know those details when they’re
announced,” he said. “That’s part of what
the market is digesting.”
The S&P 500 index dropped 3.16 points,
or 0.1 percent, to 2,789.65. The Dow Jones
Industrial Average fell 13.02 points, or 0.1
percent, to 25,806.63. The Nasdaq compos-
ite slipped 1.21 points, or 0.02 percent, to
7,576.36. The Russell 2000 index of small-
er companies gave up 7.15 points, or 0.5
percent, to 1,568.28.

release of former Nissan Chairman Carlos
Ghosn on 1 billion yen ($8.9 million) bail
on Tuesday, rejecting an appeal by prosecu-
tors to keep him jailed, a lawyer for the auto
executive said.
He could be freed as soon as Wednesday
morning, according to Japan’s Kyodo News.
Jean-Yves Le Borgne, Ghosn’s French
lawyer, said a court issued a late-night ruling
rejecting prosecutors’ appeal of the initial
ruling. Le Borgne cautioned that prosecutors
still had leeway to file new charges as they
had done once before.
Ghosn said in a written statement that he is
grateful for his family, friends and human
rights activists from around the world who
have helped him.
“I am innocent and totally committed to
vigorously defending myself in a fair trial
against these meritless and unsubstantiated
accusations,” he said in the statement issued
Tuesday.
The former head of the Renault-Nissan-
Mitsubishi Motors alliance has been
detained since he was arrested on Nov. 19. He
says he is innocent of charges of falsifying
financial information and of breach of trust.

Exxon, Chevron raise production
forecast in Texas-New Mexico
DALLAS — The fracking boom is gaining
speed in the Permian Basin of west Texas
and New Mexico, as Exxon Mobil and
Chevron are primed to sharply boost oil
production in the next few years.
The big oil companies say advances in
drilling technology mean that the Permian
field can be profitable even at lower crude
prices.
Exxon Mobil said Tuesday that as soon as
2024 it expects to produce the equivalent of
more than 1 million barrels of oil per day in
the basin, up from a forecast of 600,000
barrels by 2025.
Exxon, the largest operator in the
Permian, has 48 drilling rigs there and plans
to raise that to 55 by year-end. The Irving,
Texas-based company estimates that it is
sitting on about 10 billion barrels of oil in
the basin.
Chevron officials told analysts Tuesday
that the company expects to produce
600,000 barrels per day in the Permian by
the end of 2020 and 900,000 barrels a day
by the end of 2023.
San Ramon-based Chevron says its
Permian portfolio has doubled in value over
the past two years.

Serra falls in Nor Cal finals

By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
MORAGA — What a postseason ride
it was for the Serra Padres.
Entering the CIF Division II Boys’
Basketball Championships as a No. 9
seed, the Padres celebrated two straight
road wins — including last week in
knocking off No. 1-seed St. Mary’s-
Stockton — to ultimately reach the
Northern California regional finals for
just the third time in program history.
Serra’s ride came to an end Tuesday,
however, as No. 2 Campolindo-
Moraga (26-7) never trailed to elimi-
nate the Padres with a 59-38 final.
“There’s a lot of teams out there done
and we’re still standing,” Serra head
coach Chuck Rapp said of advancing
to the Nor Cal finals. “It hurts to come
that close and not get the goal of get-
ting to a state championship and pos-
sibly winning one. … When you look
at the whole, it was a good year.”
The closest the Padres (20-10) got
was to start the second quarter when
senior Parker McDonald hit a short
pull-up jumper to tie it 10-10.
Campolindo responded with a 7-0 run
and led the rest of the way, shooting
46.3 percent from the field.
It wasn’t for lack of a sturdy Serra
defense. The Padres responded to the
Cougars’ 7-of-13 shooting clip in the
second quarter, including 3 of 4 from 3-
point range, selling out for a perimeter
defense in the second half.
Serra got what it wanted, forcing
plenty of contested shots. TERRY BERNAL/DAILY JOURNAL

Knights into
DII state final
By Joe Roias
DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT

It didn’t long for the Menlo-Atherton
girls’ basketball to figure out Oakland Tech
was like no school it had faced this season.
When Bulldogs’ 6-foot forward Stephanie
Okowi grabbed an offensive rebound off the
first missed shot of the game, put it back in
and drew the foul for the three-point play,
the Bears knew they had their hands full.
That first offensive rebound was a recur-
ring theme as fourth-seeded Oakland Tech
took down the second-seeded Bears 59-48 in
the CIF Northern California Division II
championship game.
“They were definitely the longest team we
played, ” said M-A senior forward Erica
Fischer, who finished with a team-high 18
points. “We had to move the ball quicker. We
had to shoot quicker.”
The one thing the smaller Bears could not
do, however, was hang with the Bulldogs on
the boards. They stayed close in the first
half, trailing just 15-14 in the rebounding
department, and not surprisingly, M-A was
in the game at halftime, down just 25-24.
But in the second half, the Bulldogs
asserted their authority on the glass, outre-
bounding the Bears 28-20 over the final two
quarters, during which time they pulled away
for a spot in the CIF Division IV state title
game Saturday.
“To me, it came down to rebounding,” said
M-A head coach Markisha Coleman.
“[Okowi] got a lot of offensive rebounds.”
In addition to her game-high 20 points,
Okowi grabbed a game-best 13 rebounds
—  seven of which were offensive — and
added five blocks defensively for good meas-
ure.
Oakland Tech used a 6-0 run at the end of
the second quarter to take the one-point lead
to the locker room. After the teams
exchanged baskets to start the third quarter,
the Bulldogs used a 7-0 run to take control of
the game, 34-29, as the Bears struggled to
get much going offensively.

The Menlo girls’ basketball team advanced
to the Division II state championship game

Top-seeded Menlo will play for their first
state championship since 1991 when they
take on the Southern California champions
No. 6 Rolling Hills Prep at 2 p.m. Saturday at
the Golden One Center in Sacramento.
“We’re feeling great right now and we’ve
really come together as a team at the end of
this tournament. I think we can take it all the
way.” Menlo sophomore Avery Lee said.
The Knights were led by Lee, and she wasted
no time by putting up nine points in the first
quarter. Lee would go on to finish the game
with 19 points, four rebounds, three assists
and three steals.
Menlo freshman center Sharon Nejad also
played well by contributing 15 points, 10
rebounds, one block and three steals.
Menlo (26-5) led for the entire game and the
energy in the gymnasium was electric after the
Knights opened up the game with a 9-0 run.
Enterprise struggled early on and their
nerves seemed to get the best of them when
they turned the ball over five times in the first
quarter.
Menlo led 27-14 going into halftime and all
14 of the Hornets points were scored by senior
Jadyn Matthews and freshman Abigail Shoff.
Both Matthews and Shoff put together good
stat lines that kept their team within striking
distance. Matthews finished with 18 points
and 13 rebounds while Shoff ended the game
with 10 points, six rebounds and three blocks.
The rest of the Hornets combined for just 10
points, and the tenacious defense of the
Knights kept Enterprise off-balance all night.

N. Carolina high school
suspends a player for
slur ahead of playoff
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — A North
Carolina high school basketball
playoff game already mired in con-
troversy took another turn Tuesday
when a player for a predominantly
white school was suspended for tar-
geting a racial slur toward the pre-
dominantly black school it was
scheduled to play.
Ardrey Kell High School coach
Mike Craft said the Snapchat post
using the slur in reference to West
Charlotte High School prompted an
indefinite suspension Monday, the
day before its playoff game, The
Charlotte Observer reported.
“A very swift and appropriate
decision was reached to immediately
suspend the player indefinitely,”
Craft said in a statement.
Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools
issued a statement Tuesday support-
ing Craft’s action.
“Racist behavior and actions are
repugnant to educational ideals,
contrary to CMS and community
values, and will not be tolerated
within Charlotte-Mecklenburg
Schools,” the statement said. “The
student athlete has been suspended
indefinitely from athletic participa-
tion. CMS also continues to inves-
tigate this matter and further disci-
plinary actions may be taken
according to the CMS Student Code
of Conduct.”
The player’s parents also issued a
statement to local media, saying the
family is “devastated.”
“While we stand by our son, and
love him deeply, we do recognize
the wrong and hurt caused by care-
less words,” the parents’ statement
said.
A reporter for the newspaper
tweeted Tuesday night that the West
Charlotte athletic director said peo-

Celtics 128, Warriors 95
Celtics bury
the Warriors
By Janie McCauley
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
OAKLAND — DeMarcus Cousins lost his
cool and the Golden State Warriors lost at
home in embarrassing fashion once again.
Gordon Hayward scored 30 points off the
bench, Kyrie Irving had 19 points and 11
assists, and the Boston Celtics ran away
from the Warriors early
on the way to a 128-95
win Tuesday night in a
game that turned testy
with the two-time defend-
ing champions down
big.
Cousins and Terry
Rozier received double
technicals with 8:44 to
Gordon play. Cousins was called
Hayward for his fifth foul on a
charge drawn by Aron
Baynes, then the fiery Warriors center stood
over Baynes in clear frustration. Jayson
Tatum bumped Cousins with his right arm
and Cousins pushed back with some force,
then Rozier entered the fray and he and
Cousins traded shoves.
“It was silly. It was nothing, absolutely
nothing,” Cousins said without elaborat-
ing.
Boogie’s moment summed up an ugly
evening of basketball by his team — and
fans seeing their final season in the East
Bay made a mad dash for the Oracle Arena
exits in the closing minutes. It was the
Warriors’ fifth home defeat by 20 or more
points.
“I’d love to have some magic potion and
say we can come out and play with better
energy and better discipline and kind of rec-
tify it, but we’ve got to, at some point, stop
talking about it and figure it out,” Stephen
Curry said.

points and four 3-pointers on a night

Kevin Durant scored 18 points but com-
mitted five turnovers, while Cousins wound
up with 10 points on 4-for-12 shooting —
missing all five of his 3-point tries — and
nine rebounds to go with four turnovers.

Club.
There were 1.61 deaths per 1,000 starts in
the U.S. in 2017, according to the most
recent figures from the Equine Injury
Database, compiled by The Jockey Club.
That was a slight increase in the rate of fatal
injury compared with 2016, when there were
1.54 deaths per 1,000 starts.
The majority of those deaths occurred on
dirt surfaces (1.74 per 1,000 starts) com-

would not resume until Friday, although the

Dragonfly’s project for the southern proper-
ty will also feature a network of trails and a

Monday’s meeting was aimed at gathering
community input on an environmental
review planned for the project, which
Dragonfly initiated after submitting a for-
mal application for the project late last
year. Neighbors of the two projects planned
for the hillside properties voiced concerns
ranging from the projects’ effect on traffic
on Alameda de las Pulgas and other nearby
roads, how it will affect existing storm
drains and sewers and whether those visit-
ing the properties may park on nearby roads
to access trails and open space on the prop-
erties.

A resident of Glasgow Lane, Amy
Hathaway was joined by several others in
sharing concerns about the overall number
of homes proposed for the two sites, noting
the six homes per acre currently planned for

project. Hathaway looked to the stability of
the hillside, the project’s effects on the
noise, traffic and nearby schools as well as
the cumulative impact of both proposals as
among the factors she would like to see offi-
cials study.
“That density is not keeping in with the
character with all the surrounding neighbor-
hoods, which are single-family homes built
at about three homes per acre,” she said.
“Keep the San Carlos hills single-family
and put the density where it belongs, which
is near transit.”
Greg Goodfellow with PlaceWorks, the
firm hired to prepare the environmental
impact report, said the report will offer an
assessment of the project’s effects on the
aesthetics, geology, biological resources
and potential for wildfires, among other
physical environmental effects.
Steve Noack, a principal with
PlaceWorks, said a draft environmental
impact report will draw from public input in
addressing the project’s impacts and will
take some two to three months to compile,
adding the potential for future projects
would also be studied in the report.
Having lived on Carmelita Drive, resident
Douglas Murray could relate to the concerns
several residents on that street shared about
the development’s effect on the stormwater
runoff for homes situated at lower eleva-
tions compared to the project site. But for
all offices of the Human Services Agency will
remain open but providing “minimal servic-
es,” county officials said. The agency pro-
vides food and shelter assistance, foster child
services and employment services, among
other things.
“There are some impacts,” county spokes-
woman Michelle Durand said. “But we’re
pulling together and hoping to weather this
out and get back to the negotiating table and
get to an agreement.”
The strikers are largely comprised of
behavioral health and recovery services
workers, including licensed therapists who
work with people recovering from addiction,
Tucker said.
Also, many are benefit analysts who help
people apply for Medicare,
CalFresh and Medi-Cal.
The workers, 95 percent of
whom are on the picket lines
Tuesday, are concerned with
issues that affect working
conditions, including super-
Murray, who now lives on Heather Drive,
whether a crosswalk at the development’s
entrance and exit onto Alameda de las Pulgas
would be enough to mitigate traffic and safe-
ty concerns was a major concern.
“They should have a signal light at that
exit, a crosswalk is not adequate,” he said.
“I think the developer should pay for it, not
us taxpayers, because it’s going to be evi-
dent that a traffic light would be needed
there.”
Noack explained recommendations to
mitigate the project’s effect on traffic would
also be included in the draft environmental
impact report, which he estimated could be
released as early as mid-summer. Once the
draft report is released, he noted a 45-day
comment period will follow to gather com-
ments to be addressed in the final report,
which requires approval by the Planning
Commission before the project can go up
for review.
Connecting the developments
Whether or not the two projects should be
connected, how emergency vehicles would
access homes in those neighborhoods and
the routes residents would take to leave the
properties in case of emergency were also
among the concerns residents raised at
Monday’s meeting. Resident Sandy
Althouse was joined by several residents in
seeking more information about the devel-
visor-to-staff ratios, understaffing and staff
retention, Tucker said.
The union has suggested allowing workers
to telecommute and “some other smarter
ways to do things, but we’ve not been able to
get a commitment from the county,” Tucker
said.
Another sticking point involves retiree
health care. The union wants to change the
current system, which ties the amount of sick
days a worker has on the books to that per-
son’s ability to fund their health care in
retirement.
“When you retire, you basically cash out
your sick leave on the books and that’s how
your retiree health care is funded,” Tucker
said.
If a worker is off work to deal with an
extended illness, care for an ill family mem-
ber or for maternity leave, for example, that
person won’t have the money for retiree
health care, according to Tucker.

“The number of trees that are being taken
out in San Carlos is ridiculous,” she said.
“What can be done to try to keep more of
these heritage trees?”
Though he acknowledged the concerns
residents raised about the increased density
to accompany the project, Commissioner
John Dugan encouraged residents and offi-
cials to consider the new neighborhood that
would be formed by the two projects once
they are complete. Because the property is
zoned for the type of housing the developer
is proposing, Dugan acknowledged it could
be unlikely the commission will be able to
reject its plans outright and asked residents
and officials to consider offering ideas for
how the site’s history could be preserved or
how a sense of community could be fostered
on the site.
“This is the Black Mountain neighbor-
hood,” he said. “We can’t really think of
this as a development project in a narrow
sense.”

which were also in negotiations with the
county and all of which reached contract
agreements.
As part of those agreements, the county
will assemble a “labor-management commit-
tee” to review sick leave and retiree health
care policies, according to county officials.
The county is also offering a 12 percent
pay increase over three years that includes
smaller “longevity” increases for employees
who have been with the county for a number
of years and increases for people in jobs that
are difficult to fill, Durand said.
“The contract is generous and equitable,”
Durand said. “In addition to wanting to fairly
compensate our employees, we have to be
fiscally responsible overall, not only for
these employees and future employees but all
of our taxpayers and residents.”
The other bargaining units include hospi-
tal and medical center staff, public safety dis-
patchers and parks workers, among others.

Continued from page 1
City Manager Mike Futrell detailed
the opportunity to float in the fall a
community facilities district proposal
which would require property owners
near the Bayshore to pay toward a
transportation improvement fund.
Councilmembers admired the bold
nature of Futrell’s proposal during a
study session Thursday, Feb. 28, but
suggested more time is necessary to
dissect the initiative blanketing the
area where the city’s humming biotech
sector calls home.
“I think I need to have a real discus-
sion to get into the meat of this
thing, ” said Vice Mayor Rich
Garbarino, according to video of the
meeting, while also appreciating the
work committed by city staffers into
developing the plan.
Councilman Mark Addiego shared a
similar perspective.
“I want another study to grill staff on
this,” he said, while complimenting
Futrell’s thorough presentation, which
also served as the initial opportunity
for officials to publicly discuss the
matter.
The potential tax, which would
require supermajority support from
property owners inside district bound-
aries, could raise money for the $356
million worth of transportation
improvements identified.
The work is badly needed to fix the
gridlock which forms each work day
throughout the Bayfront area generally
spanning from San Francisco
International Airport to Oyster Point
Marina, said Futrell.
He said the proposed tax district is
an innovative way to seek funding and

RAIN
Continued from page 1
Friday is expected to dry out, but
only briefly as another storm system
is on its way and could bring more rain
to San Mateo County throughout the
weekend.
Long-range models suggest showers
for the first half of next week, a dry
period mid-week and then a small
chance of yet another system arriving
Friday, March 15.
While recent systems are bringing
relatively modest conditions, they’re
still impacting work on the sinkhole
that has knocked Skyline Boulevard
out of commission since the begin-
ning of February. One lane of traffic
was expected to open by March 5, but
that projection has been pushed back
cannot repair the road while it is rain-
ing, said Caltrans spokesman Jeff
Weiss.
“It’ll be months before both lanes
are open,” he added.
Every day of March has brought rain,
but nothing close to the atmospheric
river that led to devastating flooding
in the North Bay at the end of
February.
Between Monday and Tuesday, San
Francisco International Airport record-
ed a little over 1 inch of rain, Half
Moon Bay got .39 inches, Pacifica
saw .42 inches and La Honda received
an unusually modest .18 inches of
rain.
Mehle said only the northern fringe
of the atmospheric river traveling over
California impacted the Bay Area

Southern California.

the Bay Area beyond 100 percent of
normal for the water year, which began
Oct. 1. Only Mountain View and
Oakland are at normal.
SFO is sitting at 109 percent of nor-
mal for the water year but is up to 146
percent of normal for the calendar year.
Temperatures are expected to drop
Wednesday and could hit the low 40s
that night and even the upper 30s in
the hills, but there won’t be freezing or
black ice conditions, Mehle said.
“The ground is pretty warm as we’ve
been relatively mild lately,” he said.
Mehle said the season through
spring is officially classified as a weak
El Niño, meaning the Pacific jet
stream has been amplified and shifted
northward, leading to a greater likeli-
hood of winter storms.
“Some rainfall could be tied to the
increase of the Pacific jet stream,”
Mehle said.

NOTICE OF PETITION TO
ADMINISTER ESTATE OF
Wayne H. Johnson
Case Number: 19-PRO-00262
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, con-
tingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or es-
tate, or both, of Wayne H. Johnson. A
Petition for Probate has been filed by
David Wayne Johnson in the Superior
Court of California, County of San Mateo.
The Petition for Probate requests that
David Wayne Johnson be appointed as
personal representative to administer the
estate of the decedent.

and codicils, if any, be admitted to pro-
bate. The will and any codicils are avail-
able for examination in the file kept by
the court.
The petition requests authority to admin-
ister the estate under the Independent
Administration of Estates Act. (This au-
thority will allow the personal representa-
tive to take many actions without obtain-
ing court approval. Before taking certain
very important actions, however, the per-
sonal representative will be required to
give notice to interested persons unless
they have waived notice or consented to
the proposed action.) The independent
administration authority will be granted
unless an interested person files an ob-
jection to the petition and shows good
cause why the court should not grant au-
thority.
A hearing on the petition will be held in
this court as follows: APR 03, 2019 at
9:00 a.m., Dept. 28, Room 2F Superior
Court of California, County of San Mateo,
400 County Center, Redwood City, CA

If you object to the granting of the peti-
tion, you should appear at the hearing
and state your objections or file written
objections with the court before the hear-
ing. Your appearance may be in person
or by your attorney.
If you are a creditor or a contingent cred-
itor of the decedent, you must file your
claim with the court and mail a copy to
the personal representative appointed by
the court within the later of either (1) four
months from the date of first issuance of
letters to a general personal representa-
tive, as defined in section 58(b) of the
California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days
from the date of mailing or personal de-
livery to you of a notice under sectioin
9052 of the California Probate Code.Oth-
er California statutes and legal authority
may affect your rights as a creditor. You
may want to consult with an attorney
knowledgable in California law.
You may examine the file kept by the
court. If you are a person interested in
the estate, you may file with the court a
Request for Special Notice (form DE-
154) of the filing of an inventory and ap-
praisal of estate assets or of any petition

NOTICE OF AVAILABILITY
DRAFT ENVIRONMENTAL
IMPACT REPORT FOR THE
UNDERGROUND FLOW
EQUALIZATION SYSTEM
PROJECT
The City of San Mateo, as the Cali-
fornia Environmental Quality Act lead
agency, has prepared an Environ-
mental Impact Report (EIR) for the
Underground Flow Equalization Sys-
tem Project, formerly called the In-
System Storage project. The Draft
EIR provides a project-level review of
environmental impacts that could po-
tentially result from implementation of
the project. This document will be
available for public review and com-
ment from March 6 through May 9,
2019.
The project consists of a new under-
ground temporary wastewater hold-
ing structure, pump station, odor con-
trol equipment room, electrical build-
ing, and associated diversion pipe-
lines. The structure would temporarily
hold diluted wastewater flows during
heavy rains. The temporary holding
structure also would provide short-
term wastewater storage to facilitate
future sewer construction projects
and operations and maintenance ac-
tivities, such as pipeline inspection
and cleaning. The structure would
be located in the eastern portion of
the San Mateo County Event center.
The City is soliciting public comments
regarding the environmental impacts
identified in the Draft EIR. The Draft
EIR will be available for public down-
load and review on March 6, 2019
from the Clean Water Program web-
site at http://cleanwaterprogramsan-
mateo.org/enviropermitting/.
Hard copies will also be available at
City Hall, the San Mateo Main Li-
brary, and the Hillsdale Branch of the
San Mateo Public Library.
A public meeting to receive com-
ments on the Draft EIR will be held
during the Planning Commission
meeting on April 9, 2019 at 7:00 p.m.
at City Council chambers located at
330 W. 20th Ave, San Mateo, CA.
The project is currently under review
by City Planning for a Special Use
Permit, which will also be discussed
at the April 9 meeting.
Comments should be submitted by
5:00 p.m. on May 7, 2019, per CEQA
Guidelines Section 15082(b). Written
comments should be addressed to

within 30 days. Read the information be-
low.
You have 30 CALENDAR DAYS after
this summons and legal papers are
served on you to file a written response
at this court and have a copy served on
the plaintiff. A letter or phone call will not
protect you. Your written response must
be in proper legal form if you want the

court form that you can use for your re-
sponse. You can find these court forms
and more information at the California
Courts Online Self-Help Center
(www.courtinfo.ca.gov/selfhelp), your
county law library, or the courthouse
nearest you. If you cannot pay the filing
fee, ask the court clerk for a fee waiver
form. If you do not file your response on
time, you may lose the case by default,
and your wages, money, and property
may be taken without further warning
from the court.
There are other legal requirements. You
may want to call an attorney right away.
If you do not know an attorney, you may
want to call an attorney referral service. If
you cannot afford an attorney, you may
be eligible for free legal services from a
nonprofit legal services program. You
can locate these nonprofit groups at the
California Legal Services Web site
(www.lawhelpcalifornia.org), the Califor-
nia Courts Online Self-Help Center
(www.courtinfo.ca.gov/selfhelp), or by

association. note: The court has a stat-
utory lien for waived fees and costs on
any settlement or arbitration award of
$10,000 or more in a civil case. The
court's lien must be paid before the court
will dismiss the case.

lario que usted pueda usar para su re-
spuesta. Puede encontrar estos formu-

eldo, dinero y bienes sin más adverten-
cia.

French jihadis killed in IS-held area in Syria
By Sarah El Deeb
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
OUTSIDE BAGHOUZ, Syria — A promi-
nent French militant who joined the Islamic
State group, Jean-Michel
Clain, died over the week-
end from wounds suffered
in an earlier airstrike that
killed his jihadi brother,
his wife said Tuesday as
she emerged from the
group’s last pocket of
land in Syria.
Jean-Michel The wife, who identi-
fied herself only as
Clain
Dorothee, said another
French woman who had joined IS, Hayat
Boumeddiene, was killed in another strike in
Syria last week. Boumeddiene had been
wanted by French police as a suspected
accomplice in a 2015 attack in the Paris
region.
Dorothee was one of hundreds of people
who on Tuesday streamed out of Baghouz,
the last village held by the Islamic State
group, under stepped-up assault the past four
days by U.S.-backed forces. The latest wave
of evacuations brings the final defeat of IS
by the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces
one step closer — a milestone in the devas-
tating four-year campaign to defeat the
China sets robust growth target to shore up cooling economy
By Joe McDonald
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
BEIJING — China announced a robust
annual economic growth target and a 7.5
percent rise in military spending Tuesday as
it convened an annual legislative session
overshadowed by a tariff war with
Washington.
Seeking to defuse U.S. and European com-
plaints the Chinese system is rigged against
foreign companies, Premier Li Keqiang
promised in a speech to the National
People’s Congress that they will be “treated
as equals” with their Chinese competitors.
Li, the country’s top economic official,
set this year’s growth target at 6 to 6.5 per-
cent, reflecting determination to shore up a
cooling state-dominated economy and pre-

group’s so-called “caliphate” that once cov-
ered a vast territory straddling both Syria
and Iraq.
Dorothee, who is also French, told the
Associated Press that the situation inside
Baghouz was a “horror film,” saying there is
a “massacre” inside, with constant shoot-
ing. People had to lay flat to avoid the cross-
fire, she said, adding that her 7-year-old
vent politically dangerous job losses. Such
a growth rate, if achieved, would be among
the world’s strongest. Yet it would be slight-
ly below last year’s 6.6 percent growth in
China and would mark a new three-decade
low.
The slowdown in China, the world’s sec-
ond-largest economy after the United States,
is likely to hold back international growth.
“China is still a very large locomotive
pulling the global economy,” said Sung
Won Sohn, chief economist at SS
Economics in Los Angeles. “As the Chinese
economy slows, this will have an impact
around the world. We are already seeing that
impact.”
Still, Eswar Prasad, an economist at
Cornell University, suggested that a more
manageable pace of growth in China could

daughter was killed and her other daughter
wounded by an explosion two weeks ago.
Speaking at a desert reception area where
SDF fighters were screening the evacuees,
the 38-year-old said she does not want to go
back to France and that she wants “France to
leave me alone.”
Her account closes a chapter on a number
of French militants who were connected to
benefit the global economy in the long run.
“Slower but more balanced growth in
China, especially if it was driven by domes-
tic consumption demand and involved fewer
financial system risks, could be a net posi-
tive for the world economy,” Prasad said.
At the legislative session in Beijing, Li
promised to “promote China-U.S. trade
negotiations,” but gave no details of talks

attacks in past years in and around Paris and
who then made their way to IS’s “caliphate”
and finally, as it crumbled, to this tiny vil-
lage on the Euphrates River near the Iraqi
border.
Her husband, Jean-Michel Clain, was
wounded in a Feb. 20 airstrike in Baghouz
that killed his brother, Fabien, one of
Europe’s most wanted IS members. The
U.S.-led coalition announced Fabien’s death
several days after the strike. The two broth-
ers joined IS together and Fabien went on to
become the group’s voice in France.
Fabien’s voice was on an IS recording
claiming responsibility for the worst ter-
rorist violence in France’s modern history
— a series of bombings and shootings in
Paris in November 2015 that killed 130
people.
Jean-Michel held on for a little over a
week after the airstrike. Dorothee said she
tried to treat him, but his feet were torn apart
and one side of his body was crushed. “He
suffered,” she said. “There was no hospital.”
He died on Sunday, she said.
Boumeddiene was killed in a separate
airstrike in Baghouz about a week ago,
Dorothee said. Other French citizens who
left Baghouz on Tuesday said Boumeddiene
was believed to have been staying in a house
used by French citizens that was hit last
week.
Donald Trump over Beijing’s technology
ambitions and complaints it steals or pres-
sures companies to hand over technology.
Li, No. 2 in the ruling Communist Party
behind President Xi Jinping, pledged higher
spending on development of technologies
including artificial intelligence, electric
cars, biotechnology and new materials that
China’s leaders see as a path to prosperity
and global influence.
