PARIS — A massive fire swept across the

as it was undergoing renovations Monday,
collapsing its spire and threatening one of
the world’s greatest architectural treasures

San Francisco eyes charge to

drive famed Lombard Street
By Olga R. Rodriguez
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO — Thousands of
tourists could soon have to pay as much as
$10 to drive down world-famous Lombard
Street in San Francisco.
City and state officials on Monday
announced a bill that would give San
Francisco the authority to establish a toll
and reservation system for the street that
winds down a steep hill, in an effort to
reduce crowds and traffic congestion.
“We must implement a system that
enables both residents and visitors to enjoy
the ‘Crookedest Street in the World,”’ said
Assemblyman Phil Ting, a San Francisco
Democrat who authored the legislation.
Residents say the scenic thoroughfare
feels more like an overcrowded amusement
park than a neighborhood street. They have
been calling for years for officials to
address the traffic jams, trash and trespass-
ing by visitors.
In the summer months, an estimated
6,000 people a day visit the 600-foot-long
street, creating lines of cars that stretch for
blocks, clogging the Russian Hill neigh-
borhood.
“The cars really impact the neighborhood
because they line up, they back up, they are
sitting idling,” said Greg Brundage, presi-
dent of the Lombard Hill Improvement
Association.
San Francisco transportation officials
have proposed requiring visitors to make a
reservation online and pay $5 for each vehi-
cle. Another plan calls for online reserva-
tions and a $10 charge on weekends and hol-
idays.
The city needs state approval to charge

Man robbed at knifepoint
during brief roadside stop
The San Mateo County Sheriff’s Office
was looking Sunday for a suspect in a knife-
point robbery of a driver who stopped
momentarily alongside a road in unincorpo-
rated Moss Beach to retrieve something
from his car trunk, a sheriff’s detective said.
The victim was driving on Airport Street
in Moss Beach at about 11:35 p.m. Saturday
when he pulled to the shoulder and stopped,
said San Mateo County Sheriff’s Detective
Rosemerry Blankswade. Shortly thereafter,
as the victim was removing things from his
Local briefs
car’s trunk, a man approached him, held a
knife or other sharp object against his
lower back and demanded the victim’s wal-
let. The victim, who complied, sustained
scratches when the robber pushed him to the
ground.
The robber was last seen fleeing on foot
south on Airport Street.
The victim’s wife and child were in the
vehicle at the time of the robbery, but told
police they did not see or hear the suspect,
Blankswade said.
The suspect is described as a man of
unknown race, approximately 5 feet 7 inch-
es tall, with a medium build and wearing a
dark sweater and blue jeans. He spoke with a
slight Latin or Hispanic accent.

Gov. Newsom won’t block building in high-fire areas
By Kathleen Ronayne
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SACRAMENTO — A desire to live near
nature is embedded in California’s ethos,
Gov. Gavin Newsom said Monday as he
explained why he doesn’t want to block
home building near forested areas at high
risk for wildfires.
“There’s something that is truly
Californian about the wilderness and the
wild and pioneering spirit,” Newsom said in
an interview with the Associated Press. “I’m
not advocating for no (building).”
Newsom on Friday released a report out-
lining the challenges of California’s grow-
ing wildfire threat that suggested local gov-
ernment “de-emphasize” building in high-
risk areas around forests. But he told the AP
it was a loose suggestion aimed at starting a
debate about how Californians can build
smarter and closer to urban centers and eco-
nomic hubs.
More than 2.7 million Californians live
in areas state fire officials say are at a very
high hazard for wildfires, according to an AP
analysis of census data and state fire maps.
Nearly 180 cities and towns are in those
very high hazard areas.
The recently retired head of the California
Department of Forestry and Fire Protection,
Ken Pimlott, said last year that government

a dozen of California’s most destructive
wildfires in the past two years.
The five-member California Public
Utilities Commission questioned veteran
PG&E board member Richard Kelly about
the safety qualifications of 10 new board
members and incoming chief executive Bill
Johnson, who starts May 1.
“It safe to say that there is still anxiety,”
CPUC president Michael Picker said at a
REUTERS FILE PHOTO
“I’ve never seen a deep analysis,” he said.
“And I think one has to be cautious about
that.”
A wildfire that ripped through the
Northern California town of Paradise last
commission meeting in San Francisco.
Picker and other commissioners said a
majority of the board appear to have little
experience with building corporate safety
programs. Kelly defended their resumes,
saying it was “imperative” that PG&E board
members have financial skills to help the
company emerge from bankruptcy protec-

November, destroying 19,000 buildings
and killing 85 people, served as a wake-up
call on the need for immediate action as the
climate warms and fires worsen. The town
was considered at severe risk for wildfire.
Newsom suggested the town’s history dat-
ing to the 1800s, is too deep to simply walk
away.
Instead he said Paradise should be rebuilt
under more modern building codes and with
a greater focus on sufficient evacuation
routes and shelter-in-place plans.
California has the nation’s most robust
building requirement programs for new
homes in fire-prone areas, and a recent
analysis by McClatchy showed that a high-
er percentage of homes built after new build-
ing codes took effect in 2008 survived the
fire than those built before.
Newsom’s father, a former state appeals
court judge, lived in Dutch Flat, a communi-
ty on the edge of the Sierra Nevada range.
“There’s a frontier aspect, a historic com-
ponent, ” Newsom said, referencing the
phrase “Go West, young man” that is often
attributed to author Horace Greeley, an
advocate of westward expansion.
The concept of local control is also
deeply embedded in California’s ethos and

who would bring profound experience in
compliance and safety culture,” Kelly said.
Johnson was hired to run PG&E after serv-
ing six years as chief executive of the
Tennessee Valley Authority, a publicly
owned utility.
“We’re hoping he brings the skillset
needed to change the culture,” Kelly said.
“I’m hoping we’ll see a new PG&E with him
in charge.”

Trump targets legal, illegal immigration in latest push
By Jill Colvin and Colleen Long
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Top administration
officials have been discussing ways to
increase pressure on countries with high
numbers of citizens who overstay short-
term visas, as part of President Donald
Trump’s growing focus on immigration
heading into his re-election campaign.
The administration could introduce new
travel restrictions on nationals from those
countries, according to two people famil-
iar with the plans who spoke on condition
of anonymity because they were not
authorized to disclose private conversa-
tions.
The idea, which was first reported by The
Wall Street Journal, is just one of many
under discussion by an administration that
is increasingly desperate to satisfy a pres-

of migrants at the border as he tries to
make good on his 2016 campaign promis-
es and energize his base going into 2020.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — The president isn’t wait-

hours until publication of the redacted spe-

— Donald Trump stepped up his attacks
Monday in an effort to undermine potential
disclosures on Russia, his 2016 campaign
and the aftermath.
He unleashed a series of tweets focusing on
the previously released summary of special
counsel Robert Mueller’s conclusions —
including a crucial one on obstruction of jus-
tice that Trump again misrepresented — pro-
duced by Attorney General William Barr.
“Mueller, and the A.G. based on Mueller

Omar slams Trump video retweet, says he encourages ‘hate’
By Darlene Superville
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Rep. Ilhan Omar says
she’s faced increased death threats since
President Donald Trump spread around a
video that purports to show her being dis-
missive of the 2001 terrorist attacks. “This
is endangering lives,” she said, accusing
Trump of fomenting right-wing extremism.
“It has to stop.”
Her statement late Sunday followed an
announcement by House Speaker Nancy
Pelosi that she has taken steps to ensure the
safety of the Minnesota Democrat and the
speaker’s call for Trump to take down the
video.
Soon after Pelosi’s statement, the video
disappeared as a pinned tweet at the top of
Trump’s Twitter feed, but it was not deleted.
Pelosi was among Democrats who had crit-
icized Trump over the tweet , with some
accusing him of trying to incite violence
against the Muslim lawmaker. An upstate
New York man recently was charged with
making death threats against her.
White House press secretary Sarah Sanders
defended Trump earlier Sunday, saying the

She said: “We are all Americans.”
Earlier, Pelosi issued a statement while
traveling in London saying she had spoken
with congressional authorities “to ensure
that Capitol Police are conducting a security
assessment to safeguard Congresswoman

Pelosi said officials will continue to mon-

called on Trump to discourage such behavior.

In what began as a bill to eliminate
gun shows in the San Francisco area
Senate Bill 281 introduced by state
Sen. Scott Weiner was quietly rewrit-
ten to include assigning a committee
to facilitate the demolition of the
Cow Palace in Daly City to turn it
over to developers. If not for quick
action by some local citizens, after
word got out, this bill would have
been passed with hardly any notice of
the public.

mark if efforts are made by citizens
like you to help save this great part
of history that today usefully serves
the public by hosting shows like the
Grand National Livestock show and
Rodeo, and the Dickens Christmas
Fair along with numerous local
shows. Along with the long history
of Cow Palace, there are many other
features of the facility. It is the only
covered stadium in San Francisco.
With its complex of attached and out
buildings it can have two shows run-
ning simultaneously.
It is the only venue in San

SFO has become a bad neighbor
Editor,
As a long-term Burlingame resi-
dent, the airport noise has never been
much of an issue. As a matter of fact,
it was rather rare to hear much of any-
thing except when the weather pat-
terns dictated a course change so the
planes could safely land. Conversely,
rarely were the planes noticeable dur-
ing takeoff. This has changed dramat-
ically.
Now, the rumbling from the planes
taking off is constant at all times of
the day. In days gone by, the depar-
tures and arrivals were mainly made
on runways 28L and 28R. Twenty-
eight denoting 280 degrees, the pre-
vailing wind direction at SFO. Now
departures are predominantly made on
runways 1L and 1R (10 degrees). The
start of the runways is directly adja-
cent to Highway 101 resulting in the
engines pointing directly to the com-
munities to the west of the airport (i.e
Millbrae, Burlingame, Hillsborough
and San Mateo). This natural
amphitheater of the area is the recipi-
ent of the jet blasts each and every
time. This noise pollution probably
affects something near 100,000 peo-
ple day in and day out.
All this happens except when the
wind is blowing from the 280 degree
direction at 20 mph or more and they
use 28L and 28R for departures.
Magically, the noise is gone. Having
monitored this, I cannot link delays
to the airline schedules due to this
change in departure runways. SFO is
acting as a bad neighbor and needs to
mitigate this ongoing nuisance.

Immortal legacies
“T
his nation, under God, shall have a new birth
of freedom — and that government of the peo-
ple, by the people, for the people, shall not
perish from the earth.” These were the last recorded senti-
ments of President Abraham Lincoln before hundreds at his
Gettysburg Address on Nov. 19, 1863 — less than two
years before he was fatally shot.
After more than 600,000 lives of men, women and chil-
dren were claimed by the Civil War, our nation was brought
to its knees and at the brink of self-destruction. Lincoln
had received numerous death threats in the months leading
up to that speech. Nevertheless, he understood that this
moment was far greater than any one individual’s life —
including his own.
Lincoln admitted to the large
rest of the nation, shared an
indescribable pain for every life
taken by the nation’s bloodiest
war on record. He humbly
acknowledged that there was no
formal dedication or recognition
worthy of the lives that were
lost. Nevertheless, Lincoln pro-
posed that the greatest dedica-
tion the nation could make was
to continue the fervent pursuit of
a vision that was all but lost — a Jonathan Madison
nation enshrined in liberty and rooted in the belief that “all
men are created equal.” This, he proclaimed, was the single
greatest task facing our nation.
Our nation will never forget how Lincoln’s 272-word
address ignited a new flame of hope and placed a moral com-
pass in the hearts and minds of countless Americans.
April 15 marked the 153nd anniversary of Lincoln’s
assassination. Although the curtain fell tragically on
Lincoln’s life, his countless accomplishments, resilient
optimism and tested character will forever be enshrined in
our nation’s memory.
History tells us that martyrdom and sacrifice in the name
of causes for peace, freedom and justice have fueled some of
the largest movements throughout time. Perhaps this is
because it is difficult for many of us to fathom the idea of
believing so passionately in a cause for which we would be
willing to stop breathing for its fruition.
Beyond his famous Gettysburg Address, Lincoln is
known for his renowned leadership during America’s Civil
War, and his Emancipation Proclamation — abolishing
slavery for hundreds of thousands of African-Americans.
Lincoln may have been slain, but his legacy of bold leader-
ship and ardent patriotism continues to run through the
bone and sinew of our democracy.
History also tells us that Lincoln is just one of the many
who have sacrificed their lives for a virtuous cause much
greater than themselves. Perhaps one of the first was world-
renowned Greek philosopher Socrates. Credited as one of
the founders of western philosophy, Socrates developed
ideas we all embrace today, such as the concepts of justice,
truth and morals.
In arguing the value of critical thinking and logic as an
alternative to the blind trust the Athenian government
placed in the gods, the Athenian government accused him
of poisoning the minds of the youth and rejecting their tra-
ditional ways of life. At his trial before a jury of 500,
Socrates delivered a powerful speech that has withstood the
test of time, even in his death. First, he posed the question
about the worth of a man who does not “have the wit” to die
for something meaningful. He goes on to suggest that his
death alone would not suppress his ideas and future poten-
tial thinkers who would reject the status quo. He was subse-
quently sentenced to death. And, as he predicted, his death
did not stop his ideals or philosophy as they are embraced
and enshrined in our society.
Jesus Christ was crucified in the Roman Empire’s efforts
to suppress his words of faith, healing and everlasting life.
However, those efforts resoundingly failed as the Bible —
the source of his teachings — continues to be the most
widely distributed and best-selling book worldwide, accord-
ing to the Guinness Book of World Records.
Mahatma Gandhi also has his place in this legacy. In
efforts to silence the preeminent leader’s message of peace-
ful resistance and non-violence in India’s independence
movement during the British Rule, Gandhi was assassinated
in 1948. Gandhi’s ideals of peace and nonviolent protest,
however, continue to live on today.
Each of these prominent leaders have had the courage to
do what many considered unthinkable, and sacrificed their
lives for those causes. Likewise, each of their accomplish-
ments were building blocks toward a better future. Each of
their legacies, teachings and virtues have proven to be
immortal. Let us remember to take a brief moment to honor
this legacy of sacrifice in the name of causes much greater
than ourselves. Equally important, let us strive to never
take for granted the privileges and opportunities that we
possess today because of those sacrifices.

S&P 500 falls to rare loss
By Stan Choe
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — U.S. stock indexes edged
lower on Monday, pulled down by sinking
bank stocks, and the S&P 500 fell for just
the third time in the last three weeks.
Goldman Sachs recorded one of the largest
losses in the S&P 500 after describing a
“muted start to the year,” even though its
earnings for the first quarter still beat ana-
lysts’ expectations. Citigroup also slipped
following its earnings report, as banks lead
off a quarterly reporting season that ana-
lysts expect to be the weakest in nearly

Disney, Comcast now
Hulu’s only owners as AT&T exits
NEW YORK — AT&T has sold its 9.5%
share in Hulu back to the streaming TV com-
pany, leaving Disney and Comcast as its
owners.
Hulu said Monday that AT&T sold its stake
for $1.43 billion, valuing the unprofitable
Hulu at $15 billion.
The Walt Disney Co. wound up with a 60%
share after its purchase of much of 21st
Century Fox, which included Fox’s Hulu
stake. NBCUniversal parent Comcast Corp.
owns 30%. There is speculation that
Comcast will sell too, leaving Disney the
sole owner and perhaps making Hulu’s con-
tent much more Disney-centric.
Disney may bundle Hulu with its upcoming
kids-focused streaming service, Disney Plus,
and its sports service, ESPN Plus, executives
said last week.
Hulu’s $6-a-month service lets users watch
original series and network TV episodes after
they air on TV. It has a newer live-TV service
that costs $45 a month.

Former Volkswagen CEO
charged with fraud in Germany
FRANKFURT, Germany — German prose-
cutors charged former Volkswagen CEO
Martin Winterkorn and four others with fraud
in the emissions cheating scandal that has
helped turn many Europeans against diesel
engines and accelerated the push toward elec-
tric cars.
Prosecutors said Monday that Winterkorn
knew about the scheme since at least May
2014 and failed to put a stop to it.
That contradicted his claim that he didn’t
learn about it until shortly before U.S.
investigators announced it in September
2015. Winterkorn resigned as CEO five days
later.
VW has admitted installing software in its
diesel cars that turned on pollution controls
when vehicles were being tested and switched
them off during everyday driving.

Sibling power show

By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
There’s more to winning games on the
diamond than hitting the long ball. But the
power show at Aragon sure has been fun to
watch this season.
The Dons softball and baseball teams
have combined for 23 home runs this sea-
son (17 softball, six baseball) and just over
half of those have been supplied by Daily
Journal Athletes of the Week, siblings
Megan and Cam Grant.
Cam Grant, a senior center fielder, has
seen his share of success on the diamond.
He was the Peninsula Athletic League Ocean
Division Player of the Year last season
when he became the first Aragon player of
the composite-bat era to reach 40 hits.
Now, with his younger sister on track to
reach that total as a freshman on the soft-
ball diamond, the two are quickly becoming
recognizable as Aragon royalty.
“Yeah, Cam kind of owns the place,”
Aragon baseball coach Lenny Souza said.
“Cam walks pretty big and tall around cam-
pus. Megan is the third one to come through
and now she’s tearing it up … so there’s def-
initely a buzz around campus.”
Devin Grant, class of 2016, was the first
of the three siblings to make a name for
himself at Aragon. He recently finished his
redshirt sophomore season with the
College of Idaho football team. Cam and
Megan, however, both see their respective
futures on the diamond.
Cam Grant is set to play locally, still
choosing between several Bay Area commu-
nity college baseball programs. Megan
Grant, meanwhile, made her college deci-
sion before arriving at Aragon, committing
last summer to play softball on full athletic
scholarship at UCLA.
“I’m seeing her performing for the USA
national team, for sure,” Cam Grant said of
his sister’s future. “I have hopes for her in
softball. She has that baseball mentality and
brings that to softball. And I think that’s
what gives her the edge on everyone else.”

hole playoff? On a broken leg?
5 — the number of Masters Tiger has
now won.
1 — the first time he has ever come
from behind to win a major champi-

But bigger than winning his 15th major
title, is the redemption of Tiger Woods. A
laughingstock following a messy and
public divorce, and then a sympathetic
figure as he struggled with injuries to his
knee and most importantly, his back. As
Tiger sat talking with CBS Masters host
Jim Nantz in Butler Cabin after Sunday’s
win, he admitted at the Champions Dinner
a couple years ago, he had serious doubts
he would even play again.
And yet the gallery at 18 was chanting
Tiger’s name following his tap-in putt for
the win.

Thornton suspended for Game 4

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LAS VEGAS — San Jose Sharks center Joe Thornton was
suspended Monday for one playoff game for a hit to the head
of Vegas’ Tomas Nosek.
The NHL’s Department of Player Safety said that
Thornton’s hit on Nosek in Game 3 was avoidable and that
the head was “clearly the main point of contact.” That led to
the decision to suspend Thornton for Game 4 on Tuesday
night in Las Vegas.
Thornton was called for an illegal check to the head on the
play and defended it after the game.
“I honestly thought I barely touched him,” Thornton said
after the game. “He just came right back; it was just one of
those plays that it is what it is. I think my son hits me like
that six times a day, it’s just a weird position to put himself
in, that’s all.”
The Golden Knights felt otherwise about the hit in the
second period of a 6-3 victory that gave them a 2-1 series
lead.
“It’s gutless,” Vegas forward Ryan Reaves said. “It’s
behind the play. It’s to the head. It’s everything you’re try-
ing to get rid of in hockey.”
Thornton’s last suspension came in November 2010,
when he was banned for two games for a head hit to St.
Louis’ David Perron. STAN SZETO/USA TODAY SPORTS

In fact, Megan Grant has spent most of her
life playing baseball. She grew up playing lit-
tle league and travel ball with the boys. She
only converted to softball two summers ago,
and played her first full summer season with
the West Bay Warriors travel team based in
San Mateo in 2018.
The conversion to the softball diamond was
a natural one, however, a decision Megan
Grant said was solely about playing high
school ball. The collegiate offer and early ver-
prise.
“I was just thinking about high school at
the time,” Megan Grant said. “I was like, ‘I
don’t really see myself playing baseball for
high school.’ I wanted to start softball so I
could get used to it. College was the last thing
on my mind.”
Cam Grant doesn’t discount his sister’s
baseball ability, though. And neither does
Souza, who first witnessed Megan Grant’s
skills when she arrived at the Aragon baseball
field one day as a sixth-grader and started tak-
ing swings with her brothers.
“I was already joking around with Lenny
about this,” Cam Grant said. “Would she be on
varsity? And he said, ‘yeah.’ … I feel like she
would be in the starting lineup and she would
That isn’t to say Aragon baseball needs the
help. The Dons, currently sitting atop the PAL
Ocean Division baseball standings, are hit-
ting .314 as a team. Cam Grant is leading the
team in each of the triple-crown categories,
batting .458 with four home runs and 27
RBIs.
The senior enjoyed a monster week through
three games last week, helping the Dons to
three wins batting 4 for 8 with a homer and six
RBIs. His homer set the tone in a 6-2 win over
El Camino last Tuesday, connecting with a
three-run bomb to break a 1-1 tie in the fourth.
Two days later, he played a key role in
Aragon sweeping the two-game series from
EC with a back-and-forth 8-6 win. He had two
hits, including a leadoff single amid a 6-6 tie
in the top of the seventh and later scored on an
RBI double by Matthew Mukai.
“He contributed offensively in every way
possible last week,” Souza said. “He did a lot
for us.”
Megan Grant is also leading her team in all
the triple-crown categories, batting .606 with
eight home runs and 28 RBIs. She batted safe-
ly in her first nine varsity games until taking
an 0 for 3 in Aragon’s 3-2 win over Hillsdale

Grant’s coach with the West Bay Warriors.
Megan Grant bounced back last Thursday in
a 5-1 win over Half Moon Bay, drilling a
three-run home run to center in the fifth
inning.
“I try to go off the more aggressive
approach,” Megan Grant said. “Because if you
go up to the plate scared, that’s not a good
approach to have when hitting. I try to look
for my pitches when hitting.”
In describing Megan Grant’s talents — from
her refined left-handed power swing to her
advanced hand-eye coordination to the sweet
spot — people are already evoking the name
Barry Bonds.
Meanwhile, it’s Cam Grant, who swings it
right-handed, who is getting the Barry Bonds
treatment. Last season, he walked 13 times in
90 plate appearances. He has equaled that walk
total through 63 plate appearances this year.
The hitting philosophy might sound famil-
iar though. It should, as the aggressive
approach has served the Grant family well.
“I’m going deeper into counts this year,”
Cam Grant said. “When I see a good pitch the
first pitch, I try to get on it because I know I
might not see a good one again.”

For all the talk of Tiger Fatigue among
golf fans and how all the media talks
almost exclusively about is Tiger, there is
no doubting his star power on the course.
There was certainly no Tiger Fatigue Sunday
as patrons cheered and coaxed shots with
Tiger around the course. Every shot was
greeted by mostly wild applause. Some of
which I’m sure was the by-product of possi-
bly witnessing history. But also because
almost all of Tiger’s shots were that good.
When Tiger is dialed in, he is still one of
the best players on the planet. It was clear
his vast knowledge of the nooks and cran-
nies of Augusta certainly helped his cause.
But just watching him carve up Augusta
National as the contenders fell by the way-
side was clinical — and vintage Tiger.
But what Tiger did is not often accom-
plished. What younger golf fans might not
understand is that 43-year-old golfers don’t
win the Masters. There have been five major
winners over the age of 40, Tiger included.
Looking at the way players nowadays
take care of themselves and their bodies,
you might just see more players contending
well into their 40s. But that is what made

the two-time defending NBA champions lost
DeMarcus Cousins to a leg injury in the first
quarter.
“We changed a couple things offensively
and defensively in the third on the fly. It
worked out for us. But I thought it was our spir-
it more than anything,” Clippers coach Doc
Rivers said. “Just every single guy. I loved the
end of the game.”

Jack Nicklaus’ win at the 1986 Masters so
iconic. He was 46 years old, winning his
final major championship and sixth green
jack.
Tiger now joins Jack in Masters and golf
lore.
Then there was the whole dynamic of the
rest of the field. The first two, three pages
of the leader board were a who’s who of PGA
stars — many of whom were inspired to
play the game after watching Tiger domi-
nate the last of 1990s and almost the
entirety of the 2000s. They studied the way
he moved around a golf course, they studied
his swagger and they adopted his go-for-
the-kill mentality.
Basically, Tiger was playing against a
couple dozen players who can only be
described as Tiger protégés.
And that only added to the fireworks
Sunday. Gone are the days when Tiger was
the cocky gunslinger against a bunch of
mostly milquetoast (older) golfers. Tiger
would seize a tournament lead and all but a
handful would fall by the wayside on the
final day.
Now, you can go 20, 30 deep on the world
golf rankings and find players who have
and can win a major title and have the swag
to go for it. Brooks Koepka is 28 years old
and is a three-time major winner. Patrick
Cantley and Xander Schauffele may not be
household names even among casual golf
Williams tied the game on a jumper with
1:10 to play then Curry immediately answered.
Williams scored again at 46 seconds and fin-
ished with 36 points and made 8 of 10 free
throws in as the teams combined for 64 fouls
and 76 free throws attempted.
“When I say we stopped playing, we stopped
playing, like defense, offense, execution-wise
we were not as engaged as we needed to be,”
Warriors coach Steve Kerr said. “We got exact-
ly what we deserved. The Clippers were great.
They executed, they were hungry, they stayed
connected. They were together.”
Cousins injured his left quadriceps muscle in
the first quarter and was done for the game, but
Golden State’s depth shined and the Warriors
fans, but those two briefly held the lead
Sunday.
Tiger by no means waltzed to his first
major championship in the 2010s. He had
to continue to hit good shots so he was in
position to take over when the rest of the
field inevitably made a catastrophic mis-
take.
But that’s what the great ones do. And
Tiger proved he’s back among the greats —
not only the past, but also into the future.
The PGA Championship is next month at
Beth Page Black in New York, followed by
the U.S. Open at Pebble Beach in June. Two
tournaments on two tracts he has won —
multiple times. While 1986 may have been
Nicklaus’ swan song, this Masters win
could see Tiger becoming the rising
phoenix.

As usual, the San Jose Sharks begin their
annual playoff swoon. No matter how well
they play in the regular season, they always
step on their ... skate laces ... when it
comes to the postseason.
Sunday, the seventh-seeded Vegas Golden
Knights doubled up the Sharks, 6-3 to take
a 2-1 lead in their best-of-7, opening-round
series on the Stanley Cup playoffs. San
Jose essentially started the game down 1-0
as the Knights needed just 16 seconds to
get on the scoreboard.
In the last two games, both losses, the
built a 23-point halftime lead they pushed to a
31-point advantage failing to hold off Los
Angeles late.
Williams’ jumper and three-point play with
5:34 left pulled the Clippers within 120-117
then he rebounded his own miss and scored the
putback at the 5:05 mark and cut it to 121-119.
Kevin Durant drove through the paint past
Montrezl Harrell for a one-handed jam and
three-point play with 2:48 left, then went at
Harrell the next time down and was whistled for
the offensive foul. Durant fouled out with three
straight offensive fouls.
Cousins was scheduled to undergo an MRI
exam after the injury in just his second career
playoff game following a nine-year wait. The

Sharks have allowed 11 goals.
And as usual, shoddy goaltending is the
main culprit. When Martin Jones joined the
Sharks as a free agent after being a backup
for the LA Kings, it seemed San Jose finally
has the missing piece to the Sharks’
playoff puzzle.
And he was fantastic — at the beginning.
But since joining the Sharks prior to the
2015-16 season, his play has dipped each
season.
But to say he’s regressed this season
would be an understatement. His save per-
centage was so poor, he ranked 68th in the
NHL. There are only 32 teams in the league
and 93 goalkeeper names on the NHL stat
sheet – including goalies who played only
one or two games.
Aaron Dell, the Sharks’ backup newtmin-
der, was even worse, ranking 78th in the
league.
Now the Sharks could easily rally and
take the series, but ultimately, San Jose’s
shaky goaltending always rears its ugly
head.
The old adage of offense wins games and
defense wins championships has never
been more true when it comes to the
Sharks’ annual playoff disappointment.

His status for Game 3 on Thursday at Staples

Luke Walton posted a 98-148 record in three seasons as head
coach of the Los Angeles Lakers.
Walton introduced as Kings’ new coach
By Josh Dubow
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SACRAMENTO — About five min-
utes after hearing Luke Walton had
been dismissed as coach of the Los
Angeles Lakers, Sacramento Kings
general manager Vlade Divac called
Walton’s agent.
Finalizing the deal that brought
Walton to Sacramento as the Kings
new coach didn’t take much longer.
After getting the call Friday, Walton
changed plans to take some time off
and flew to Sacramento the following
day instead. He agreed to a deal that
afternoon and was formally introduced
as coach of the Kings Monday.
“I knew these types of offers don’t
come available very often,” Walton
said. “I love coaching, so having that
opportunity with this type of talented
team and doing it alongside somebody
the way I feel about Vlade made it too
good to pass up on.”
Divac called Walton one of his bas-
ketball “soul mates,” who embraces the
same philosophies in style of play and
building culture on a team. The relation-
ship between the two goes back more
than a decade to when they were team-
mates on the Lakers in 2004-05.
Divac had wanted to interview Walton
for the opening three years ago before
hiring Dave Joerger but never got that
chance as Walton took the job with the
Lakers instead. He wasn’t going to miss
his chance again.
“When I believe in something, I just
do it that way,” Divac said. “No need to
waste time. I knew exactly what I was
looking for. When he was available, I
just gave him a call.”
Walton takes over a Kings team that’s
in a much better position than it was
three years ago thanks to progress made
under Joerger and key acquisitions made
by Divac. Joerger was fired Thursday
following a 39-43 campaign that was
the best record for the franchise in 13
years.
Divac made that move because he
felt Joerger wasn’t the right coach to
take the Kings to the next level and the
postseason and hopes that Walton can
do that.
He inherits an up-and-coming team in
Sacramento that features several talent-
ed young players acquired by Divac:
guards De’Aaron Fox and Buddy Hield,
forward Marvin Bagley III and center
Willie Cauley-Stein. The Kings finished
nine games out of a playoff spot after
being tied for the Western Conference’s
eighth seed heading into the final game
before the All-Star break.

NBA playoffs Duke’s Zion Williamson entering NBA draft

Sixers 145, Nets 123
PHILADELPHIA — Ben Simmons had 18
points, 12 assists and 10 rebounds and the
Philadelphia 76ers had an answer for the
pesky Brooklyn Nets to even their Eastern
Conference playoff series Monday night.
Simmons had a disastrous Game 1, on the
court (nine points) and from a PR perspec-
tive after he criticized fans for booing dur-
ing a game the Sixers were never really in.
He backtracked the next day at practice and
never gave another 20,591 fans a chance to
do anything but roar in approval in Game 2.
The Sixers busted the game open with a
14-0 run to start the second half and then
stretched the lead to 20 on a Simmons steal
and fastbreak basket.
With a packed house standing, Simmons
got a massive ovation when he cupped his
hand to his right ear just like Allen Iverson
did in his prime.
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
DURHAM, N.C. — Zion Williamson is
leaving Duke after one high-flying season
to enter the NBA draft.
Widely projected as the top overall pick in
the June draft, the AP national player of the
year announced his decision Monday.
The 6-foot-7, 285-pound Williamson cap-
tivated all of college basketball with his
freakish, once-in-a-generation athleticism,
his energy at both ends of the floor and his
omnipresent charisma.
The Atlantic Coast Conference player and
rookie of the year averaged 22.6 points —
tied for the league lead with teammate RJ
Barrett — and 8.9 rebounds. Along the way,
he became the face of college basketball this
season, routinely coming up with at least
one highlight-reel play or show-stopping
dunk per game.
His decision to turn pro came as no sur-
prise. In fact, he spent
the season greeting NBA
chatter with a playful
wink and a knowing nod.
He said it would be
“dope” to play on a hypo-
thetical New York Knicks
team with Kyrie Irving
and Kevin Durant. Upon
Zion learning that LeBron
Williamson James and Steph Curry
were talking about him
during All-Star weekend, he responded that
he’s “hoping to be there competing against
them next year.”
During his lone college season, he helped
the Blue Devils earn the No. 1 ranking in the
final AP Top 25 and the top overall seed in
the NCAA Tournament. Duke was knocked
out by Michigan State in the East Regional
final.
Now that he’s headed to the NBA, one key
subplot to follow is which sneaker company
will land his endorsement.
In one of the signature moments of the
season, Williamson blew out his left Nike
shoe — the PG 2.5, the signature shoe of
Oklahoma City star Paul George — and
sprained his right knee in the opening
minute of what became a lopsided home loss
to rival North Carolina.
The impact was immediate — Nike’s stock
price took a hit the next day, and the shoe
company sent a team of representatives to
campus to investigate. When Williamson
returned roughly three weeks later for the
ACC Tournament, he wore a pair of modified
size-15 Nikes from the signature line of
Irving, a Boston Celtics All-Star and former
one-and-done player at Duke.
Williamson joins Cam Reddish and Barrett
as classmates headed to the pros after one
season. Point guard Tre Jones says he will
return to school for his sophomore year.

US measles count now up to 555,
with most new cases in New York By Mike Stobbe
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — U.S. measles cases have
surged again, and are on pace to set a
record for most illnesses in 25 years.
Health officials on Monday said 555
measles cases have been confirmed so far
this year, up from 465 as of a week ago.
While 20 states have reported cases,
New York has been the epicenter. Nearly
two-thirds of all cases have been in New
York, and 85% of the latest week’s cases
came from the state. Most of the New York
cases have been unvaccinated people in
Orthodox Jewish communities.
The 2019 tally is already the most since
2014, when 667 were reported. The most
REUTERS before that was 963 cases in 1994.

Other states reporting measles cases
this year include Arizona, California,
Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Illinois,
Indiana, Kentucky, Maryland,
Massachusetts, Michigan, Missouri,
Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey,
Oregon, Texas and Washington. After the
CDC issued its report Monday morning,
Iowa officials said they too had seen a
case.
Also on Monday, the World Health
Organization reported that globally there
are four times as many measles cases so far
this year as there were at the same time last
year.
Over the last year, the largest numbers
have been in Ukraine, Madagascar and
India, with each reporting more than
60,000 cases.

extinguishing them. Firefighters continued
working through the night to cool the
building and secure the monument, as resid-
ual sparks sprinkled down from the gaping
hole where the spire used to be.
The blaze started at 6:50 p.m. after it had
closed to the public, and spread to one of the
cathedral’s landmark rectangular towers.
Nearby buildings were evacuated as fears
mounted that the structure could collapse.
WORLD
As the spire fell, the sky lit up orange and
flames shot out of the roof behind the nave
of the cathedral, among the most visited
landmarks in the world. Hundreds of people
lined up bridges around the island that hous-
es the church, watching in shock as acrid
smoke rose in plumes.
Paris fire chief Jean-Claude Gallet said the
church’s structure had been saved after fire-
fighters managed to stop the fire spreading
to the northern belfry. Gallet said “two-
thirds of the roofing has been ravaged.”
The fire came less than a week before
Easter amid Holy Week commemorations.
As the cathedral burned, Parisians gathered
spontaneously to pray and sing hymns out-
side the church of Saint-Julien-Les-Pauvres
across the river from Notre Dame while the
flames lit the sky behind them. Paris
Archbishop Michel Aupetit invited priests
across France to ring church bells in a call
for prayers.
Nearing midnight, signs pointed to the
fire nearing an end as lights could be seen
through the windows moving around the
front of the cathedral, apparently investiga-
tors inspecting the scene.
The city’s mayor, Anne Hidalgo, said a
significant collection of art work and holy
objects inside the church had been recov-
ered. She did not provide details.
Experts say firefighters were left with
devastatingly few options when faced with a
structure that’s more than 850 years old,
built with heavy timber construction and
soaring open spaces, and lacking sophisti-
cated fire-protection systems.
French President Emmanuel Macron treat-
ed the fire as a national emergency, rushing
to the scene and canceling a previously
scheduled televised address meant to address
France’s yellow vest crisis.
“The worse has been avoided, although
the battle is not yet totally won,” the presi-
dent said, adding that he would launch a
national funding campaign on Tuesday and
call on the world’s “greatest talents” to help
rebuild the monument.
“Notre Dame of Paris is our history, our
literature, our imagination. The place where
we survived epidemics, wars, liberation. It
has been the epicenter of our lives,” Macron
said from the scene.
Built in the 12th and 13th centuries,
Notre Dame is the most famous of the
Gothic cathedrals of the Middle Ages as well
as one of the most beloved structures in the
world. Situated on the Ile de la Cite, an
island in the Seine river, its architecture is
famous for, among other things, its many
gargoyles and its iconic flying buttresses.
Some 13 million people visit it every year.
Among the most celebrated artworks
inside are its three stained-glass rose win-
dows, placed high up on the west, north and
south faces of the cathedral. Its priceless

treasures also include a Catholic relic, the
crown of thorns, which is only occasional-
ly displayed, including on Fridays during
Lent.
“It’s not one relic, not one piece of glass
— it’s the totality,” said Barbara Drake
Boehm, senior curator at the Metropolitan
Museum of Art’s medieval Cloisters branch
in New York, her voice shaking as she tried
to put into words what the cathedral meant.
“It’s the very soul of Paris, but it’s not just
for French people. For all humanity, it’s
one of the great monuments to the best of
civilization.”
Reactions from around the world came
swiftly including from the Vatican, which
released a statement expressing shock and
sadness for the “terrible fire that has devas-
tated the Cathedral of Notre Dame, symbol
of Christianity in France and in the world.”
In Washington, Trump tweeted: “So horri-
ble to watch the massive fire at Notre Dame
Cathedral in Paris” and suggested first
responders use “flying water tankers” to put
it out.
Cardinal Timothy Dolan, the archbishop
of New York, said he was praying “to ask the
intercession of Notre Dame, our Lady, for
the Cathedral at the heart of Paris, and of
civilization, now in flames! God preserve
this splendid house of prayer, and protect
those battling the blaze.”

Five bridges and about 1 mile of

new, elevated Hillsdale Caltrain sta-

its current location near 28th Avenue.
The station is now expected to open in
June 2020 — 10 months behind sched-

The Beresford Creek Bridge has been
constructed and the substructure of the
other four bridges is done, with super-
structure work ongoing. Construction
of the wall north of 25th Avenue will
be wrap up this month while the work
on the segments between 25th Avenue
and 28th Avenue is also ongoing. 
“Utility relocation has been the
major challenge on this project,” Gary

The entire meal was donated by Steve
Sarver, the owner of Urban Bistro in
Cisneros in incidents dating back to
Dec. 1, 2014, and running all the way
through Sept. 5, 2015, according to
prosecutors.
He was arrested and a subsequent
investigation led to his arrest for the
baby’s death. He is charged with mur-
der, kidnapping, battery and willful
infliction of corporal punishment,
according to prosecutors.
Though Alvarado-Cisneros faced
charges of first-degree murder, sec-
ond-degree murder and involuntary
manslaughter, jurors could not agree
on what he was trying to do with the
child and couldn’t find him guilty of
either murder charge, said District

believe Alvarado-Cisneros’ conduct
that day constituted murder, Wagstaffe
was pleased the jury found him guilty
of assault of a child resulting in death,
a conviction carrying a sentence of
25 years to life that he felt ensured
Alvarado-Cisneros would receive the
proper punishment for killing a
defenseless child.

the City of San Mateo that the contract has been awarded, sign and return the contract to the City and furnish the other items re-
quired under section 2, "Scope and Control of Work," of the special provisions.
7. Contractor is notified that he shall comply with the requirements for Non-Discrimination as set forth in Section SP 7-2.3 “Non-
Discrimination Policy”.
8. Addenda issued during the time of bidding shall become a part of the documents furnished bidders for the preparation of bids,
shall be covered in the bids, and shall be made a part of the Contract. Each bid shall include specific acknowledgement in the
space provided of receipt of all Addenda issued during the bidding period. Failure to so acknowledge may result in the bid being
rejected as not responsive. Failure of any bidder to receive such Addenda shall not be grounds for non-compliance with the terms
of the instructions. It is the responsibility of the contractor to contact the City to determine the existence of any and all addenda.
9. The time of completion for this contract shall be eighty (80) working days, beginning from the date specified in the Notice to
Proceed.
10. The right is reserved, as the interest of the City may require, to reject any or all bids, to waive any informality in bids, and to
accept, modify, or reject any items of the bid, or in the case of a single bid being received to extend the acceptance date by up to
thirty (30) days with notice. The City of San Mateo is a charter City and any contract entered into is subject to the provisions of the
City of San Mateo Charter, which may supersede certain provisions of the Public Contract Code and other provision of state law.
11. A contractor or subcontractor shall not be qualified to bid on, be listed in a bid proposal, subject to the requirements of Section
4104 of the Public Contract Code, or engage in the performance of any contract for public work, as defined in this chapter, unless
currently registered and qualified to perform public work pursuant to Section 1725.5. It is not a violation of this section for an un-
registered contractor to submit a bid that is authorized by Section 7029.1 of the Business and Professions Code or by Section
10164 or 20103.5 of the Public Contract Code, provided the contractor is registered to perform public work pursuant to Section
1725.5 at the time the contract is awarded. This project is subject to compliance monitoring and enforcement by the Department
of Industrial Relations.
No contractor or subcontractor may be listed on a bid proposal for a public works project and no contractor or subcontractor may
be awarded a contract for public work on a public works project unless registered with the Department of Industrial Relations pur-
suant to Labor Code section 1725.5. As an additional requirement, Assembly Bill 219 adds Section 1720.9 to the Labor Code.
This bill expands the definition of public works under the California Prevailing Wage Law and is a requirement for this project. For
reference, please see: https://www.dir.ca.gov/ConcreteDeliveryPrevailingWage/AB_219_Fact_Sheet.html
In general, the prevailing wage scale, as determined by the Director of Industrial Relations of the State of California, in force on
the day this bid was announced or determined by the administrator of the Wage and Hour Division, U.S. Department of Labor, in
force on the day bids are opened, whichever is higher, will be the minimum paid to all craftsmen and laborers working on this proj-
ect. In some cases, prevailing wage determinations have either a single asterisk (*) or double asterisks (**) after the expiration
date in effect on the date of advertisement for bids.
In cases where the prevailing wage determinations have a single asterisk (*) after the expiration date which are in effect on the
date of advertisement for bids, such determinations remain in effect for the life of the project. Prevailing wage determinations
which have double asterisks (**) after the expiration date indicate that the basic hourly wage rate, overtime, and holiday pay rates,
and employer payments to be paid for work performed after this date have been predetermined. If work is extended past this
date, the new rate must be paid and should be incorporated in contracts the Contractor enters into.
Pursuant to Section 1773 of the Labor Code, the general prevailing wage rates in the county, or counties, in which the work is to
be done have been determined by the Director of the California Department of Industrial Relations. The wages as set forth in the
General Prevailing Wage Rates for this project will be posted at the job site. It is understood that it is the responsibility of the bid-
der to determine the correct scale. The State Prevailing Wage Rates may also be obtained from the California Department of In-
dustrial Relations internet website at http://www.dir.ca.gov. Any errors or defects in the materials in the City Clerk's office will not
excuse a bidder's failure to comply with actual scale then in force.
Said City Representative shall report the results of the bidding to the City Council at a later date, at which time the City Council
may award the contract to the lowest responsible bidder as so reported; or as City's interest may dictate. The City Council may
exercise its right to modify the award or to reject any or all bids. Any protests to award of contract shall follow the procedures out-
lined in City Council Resolution No. 61, dated June 7, 2004.
To ensure performance, City reserves the right to retain five percent (5%) of the contract price for 35 days after it records the No-
tice of Completion. However, pursuant to the Public Contracts Code Section 22300, Contractor may substitute securities for said
five percent (5%) retention or request that City make payments of retentions earned directly to an escrow agent at Contractor's ex-
pense. The provisions of the Public Contracts Code Section 22300 are hereby expressly made a part of the contract.
The lowest responsible bidder shall submit all required insurance, bonds and signed agreements within five (5) working days after
bid opening.

come the threat of online retailers.
“I’d like to understand if there is any invest-
ment we can make into the retail areas
throughout downtown that would help attract
more business and I’d like the landlords to
hear that this community is not happy with
the vacant spaces up and down the avenue and
on Broadway,” said Colson.
In a search for potential solutions, Colson
said officials will consider partnering with
merchants on initiatives such as city invest-
ments which can finance storefront beautifi-
cation. Potential zoning amendments are on
the table as well, plus parking improvements
and other economic development programs.
Colson added the discussions will include a
community education component intended to
inform shoppers that the dollars spent in
Burlingame rather than online are an essen-
tial source of tax income supporting core city
services.
“When they buy here in Burlingame,
that helps pay for their police, fire, pret-
ty trees and all that and we need the peo-
ple to understand the linkage between
LOCAL
those two, ” she said.
And while the auxiliary opportunities for
economic development will be addressed,
Colson said a central focus of the discussion
will be left for two key concerns plaguing
downtown businesses — rising rents and
parking problems.
To the concerns regarding the high cost of
doing business in Burlingame, Colson said
she has heard recently local merchants and
restaurateurs are departing to set up shop in
cheaper locales nearby.
“We have a responsibility to educate the
landlords that businesses are leaving,” said
Colson.
The issue is growing more apparent with
the increase in empty storefronts visible
both along the city’s downtown and
Broadway, which many local merchants have
blamed on increasing rents sought by com-
mercial property owners.
For her part, Colson suggested she would
favor a shared effort by landlords and mer-
chants to work together in filling the exist-
ing vacancies and preserving the appeal of
shopping in Burlingame.
“What we are going to have to do is help
the landlords understand that these vacant
buildings are not what we want and we would
rather work
cooperative-
ly with them to get them leased, rather than
put in punitive measures like vacancy fees,”
said Colson.
In recognition of another top concern com-
monly expressed by the local business com-
munity, Colson said officials are looking at
updating the parking meters downtown to
accept forms of payment other than solely
coins.
Beyond making the spaces easier to pay
for, Colson said she expects a space will be
easier to find once officials break ground on a
plan to build a new downtown parking
garage.
The 384-space garage is expected to replace
an existing surface parking lot bounded by
Lorton and Highland avenues neighboring
another surface lot at Park Road and Lorton
Avenue where a 78-unit affordable housing
development is slated be constructed.
Nearby merchants last year circulated a
petition advocating for the garage to be built
first, out of fear that the parking difficulties
faced by patrons would only grow worse if
additional spaces were lost.
As a compromise, Colson said it is expect-
ed the two projects will be constructed simul-
taneously to assure the community’s need for
more parking and affordable housing will be
Tuesday • April 16, 2019 27
given equal priority.
Furthermore, to assure construction work-
ers building the garage and apartments do not
consume downtown spaces, Colson said a
plan will be established for builders to park
on the Bayfront and take shuttles to their
worksites.
Colson expressed optimism the two devel-
opments once completed will collectively
improve the downtown business environ-
ment, by adding parking and foot traffic from
residents of the affordable housing.
With the variety of programs and initia-
tives considered, Colson said she is hopeful
the discussion can serve as the foundation for
improving the opportunities and experiences
for local merchants and shoppers.
“We’re hoping to get about 100 people or
so to really sit down and take a hard look at
how we can keep retail revitalized during a
time when people are shopping online,” she
said.
The Burlingame Talks Shop discussion will
begin around 6:30 p.m. Wednesday, April 17,
at the Masonic Lodge, 145 Park Road. Light
dinner and refreshments will be served at 6
p.m.

Ivanka Trump eyes laws, customs holding back African women By Catherine Lucey
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ADDIS ABABA, Ethiopia — Visiting
Africa to promote female economic develop-
ment, Ivanka Trump on Monday sought to
spotlight laws and customs that hold women
on the continent back, from restrictions on
property ownership to gender-based vio-
lence.
The president’s daughter and senior advis-
er, on a four-day trip to promote a White
House global women’s project, spoke about
roadblocks for women during a policy dis-
cussion with Ethiopia’s president and after
signing a joint statement with the African
Union Commission.
“We can and we must address these barri-
ers to women’s equality and countries’
prosperity,” Trump said during a panel dis-
cussion at a meeting of the U.N. Economic
REUTERS Commission for Africa. She pointed to the

block their wives from working.
In the agreement, the United States and the
African Union Commission pledged to help
empower women and to fight problems such
as child marriage, human trafficking and
sexual abuse. She signed it along with Kwesi
Quartey, the commission’s deputy chairman.
Trump highlighted the “collective goal”
to eliminate gender-based violence and
stressed the shared focus on improving
access to education and business opportuni-
ties.
On her second day in Ethiopia, Trump
delivered her message on gender equity in a
country long considered a patriarchal socie-
ty, where women and girls struggle with
access to jobs and education. Female genital
mutilation continues in some areas,
although the government has outlawed the
practice.
Ethiopia has pursued sweeping political
and economic reforms under Prime Minister
Abiy Ahmed. Last year, lawmakers approved
a cabinet with women making up a record 50
percent of ministers and elected President
Sahle-Work Zewde, the first woman to hold
the largely ceremonial post.
