Tree tally on way School district in

Burlingame to create inventory for its wooded friends
By Heather Murtagh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
An estimated 13,000 trees are
under the care of a five-man
Burlingame maintenance crew, but
the list of leafy timbers will soon be
more extensive as an effort to create
an inventory begins.
The $80,000 project paid for with
a combination of grants, in-kind
time and $10,000 from the city will
update the 1985 inventory. Starting
later this month, two arborists from
Davey Resource Group will begin
traveling the city literally stopping
at every tree on city property to cre-
ate an accurate list that will even
include GPS coordinates. Updating
the list will give the city a better
handle on the trees in the city and
maintenance needs.
“This is a good thing,” Mayor
Terry Nagel said simply.
Nagel was excited to learn
resources had been secured to create
an inventory, something staff has
mentioned would be helpful for a
number of years.
There are several reasons to be
proactive about trees, which
Burlingame residents hold dear. The
most logical is liability, said Jim
Skeels, director of Parks and
Recreation. The beautiful variety of
older trees can be an issue, said
Skeels. As a result, Burlingame is
one of the few cities that has a five-
man, full-time maintenance team
dedicated to maintaining the trees.
Burlingame is broken into sec-
tions so the maintenance crew will
visit each street every four to five
years, said Parks Supervisor Bob
Disco.
Liability isn’t what comes to mind
for the residents. In that case, it’s the
beauty. Updating the list will allow

City considers continuing $111 annual tax
School district to vote on May ballot measure this month
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
San Carlos voters could be deciding on an
eight-year renewal of a $111 parcel tax dur-
ing a special May ballot should school offi-
cials decide to move forward this month.
In 2003, voters passed Measure D, a $98
annual parcel tax through 2011. The tax is
now about $110 with cost-of-living adjust-
ments. Last week, the San Carlos Elementary
School District Board of Trustees discussed
results from a 400-person phone survey
gauging voters about the possibility of
renewing the tax.
As a result, staff will bring a resolution
before the board at its Jan. 27 meeting call-
ing to renew the tax for eight years without a
cost of living increase. If approved, the
measure would be placed on a May 3 all-mail
ballot. Such a measure would require a two-
thirds approval rate to pass.
Suspected Hillsborough art thief to trial
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
One of two Emeryville residents accused
of stealing several pieces of valuable art
from the home of a deceased Hillsborough
woman will stand trial on charges of grand
theft, first-degree burglary, identity theft and
receiving stolen property.
Beverly Betty Wilkerson-Aldabashi, 42,
pleaded not guilty to all charges but was
held to answer on all counts after a judge
found sufficient evidence during a prelimi-
nary hearing Tuesday morning.
She returns to court Feb. 8 to enter a
Superior Court plea and set a trial date.
The next day, Feb. 9, co-defendant Robert
John Alarid, 42, is scheduled for his prelim-

impact on voter approval is reduced. Godbe
recommended considering an eight-year
term.
The district has had varied success with
parcel taxes in the past.
In 2009, voters passed Measure B, a six-
year $78 annual parcel tax. That was put on
the ballot after a failed measure in November
2008. Officials put forward Measure S in
November. The measure was poised to

Among the items taken were an Édouard

Camry. The car was later sold in San Jose
using a stolen driver’s license which led
authorities to the suspects.

being held in lieu of $150,000 bail.

Still, Los Angeles police Lt. John

President Barack Obama called
Shriver “one of the brightest lights

“Over the course of his long and

Obama said in a statement.
Within the family, Shriver was
sometimes relied upon for the hard-

“He was a man of giant love,
energy, enthusiasm, and commit-

world a more joyful, faithful, and
compassionate place. He centered
everything on his faith and his fam-
ily. He worked on stages both large
and small but in the end, he will be

In public, Shriver spoke warmly
of his famous in-laws, but the pri-

Woman struck by

A woman was injured when she

a police lieutenant said.
The 70-year-old woman was hit
at about 10:45 a.m. as she walked
south across Harbor Boulevard in
the crosswalk at Old County Road,
Belmont police Lt. Patrick Halleran
said.
The victim, a Half Moon Bay res-

injuries that are not believed to be
life-threatening, Halleran said.
The delivery truck stopped at the
scene and the driver cooperated
with authorities, he said.

FRESNO — Federal water regu-

for farms and cities higher than last
year’s amounts.
The U.S. Bureau of Reclamation
says agriculture contractors south of
the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta
for now will receive 45 percent of
the water requested — the same as
in 2010. Industry and cities south of
the delta will get 75 percent of their
requested amount.

those figures likely will jump up
next month, when the agency
announces its official water delivery

Tunisian ministers quit
Police in riot gear forcefully break up demonstration
By Hadeel Al-Shalchi

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
TUNIS, Tunisia — At least four oppo-
sition ministers quit Tunisia’s day-old
unity government Tuesday, aligning
themselves with demonstrators who insist
democratic change is impossible while so
many supporters of the freshly ousted
president are hoarding posts of power.
Police in riot gear forcefully put down
a demonstration of the sort that toppled
the North African country’s longtime
autocratic leader last week, pummeling a
demonstrator with batons and boot kicks
— and highlighting a question on many
minds: Is the new regime really much dif-
ferent?
As Tunisia struggles to move past the
rioting, looting and score-settling that has
marked the political transition, there was
a growing sense Tuesday that it will be
difficult for the interim government to
hold together and pave the way toward
elections expected within six to seven
months.
After the initial exhilaration of last
week, when a populist uprising ousted
President Zine El Abidine Ben Ali after
23 years in power and sent him fleeing to
Saudi Arabia — sounding a warning bell
for other political strongmen in the region
— many are fretting about what it ulti-
mately meant.

Cook in for Jobs Apple income soars 78 percent
By Rachel Metz
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO — If the past
is any indication, Tim Cook’s mas-
tery of inventory management and
his high expectations of employees
should leave Apple Inc. in good
hands while its charismatic leader,
Steve Jobs, takes a medical leave of
absence.
Apple said Monday that Cook, the
chief operating officer, will take
charge of the iPhone and iPad maker
as Jobs focuses on his health. Unlike
Jobs’ half-year medical leave in
2009, during which he specified he’d
return to work at the end of June and
stuck to it, Apple did not say when,
if ever, Jobs would return as CEO.
That means Cook, 50, considered
a logical eventual successor to Jobs,
55, could be in charge for a long
time, perhaps permanently.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Apple Inc. said Tuesday that its
net income for the holiday quarter
jumped 78 percent as shoppers
snapped up more iPads than ana-
lysts predicted.
People also bought iPhones as fast
as Apple could make them. The
strong results were enough to make
investors forget, for the moment, the
news that CEO Steve Jobs is taking
another medical leave of absence.
Shares climbed in after-hours
trading. Earlier, the stock slipped
more than 2 percent in regular trad-
ing as Wall Street grappled with
Jobs’ hiatus. Jobs had surgery in
2004 that he said cured him of a rare
form of pancreatic cancer. In 2009
he had a liver transplant during a
half-year medical leave; this time,
Apple has not said how long it
expects Jobs to be absent.
Net income for Apple’s fiscal first
quarter rose to $6 billion, or $6.43
per share, up from $3.4 billion, or
$3.67 per share, in the same period
a year earlier.
Analysts surveyed by FactSet
forecast $5.41 per share for the
quarter, which ended Dec. 25.
Revenue climbed 71 percent to
$26.7 billion, more than the $24.3
billion analysts expected. It was
$15.7 billion in the same quarter a
year earlier.
Apple’s newest product, the iPad
tablet computer, went on sale in
April and was one of the hottest
gifts over the holidays. Apple sold
7.3 million of the touch-screen, key-
board-less gadgets, which people
use to surf the Web, check e-mail,
watch movies, play games and,
increasingly, get real work done.
That’s about a million more than
analysts were expecting.
• Dec. 16, 2008: Apple says Jobs won’t be

usually the highlight of the annual

treatable hormone imbalance. He says he

Letters to the editor
A crying shame
Editor,
I really feel for the couple who rent
from Essex properties in San Mateo,
mentioned in the Jan. 18 edition of
the Daily Journal (“Struggling on a
fixed income”).
Ever since corporations has began
buying rental property, the human
factor has been taken away and has
only become about profits
And you talk to the city and they
throw up their hands. The city has no
interest in its citizens any more. They
only care about how much tax they
can collect from Essex.
I just recently had a $120 rent
increase just last November from
Archstone which was about 8.5 per-
cent. In the city of Dublin, I was
under a one income household. I
spoke with the city and they too
throw up their hands and say free
market. Rents right now are higher
than a home loan but the home mar-
ket has become so unstable.
And this all is being driven by
greed. Where should these people
live?
We had a house before my wife
lost her job so we had to give it up
and Countrywide and Bank of
America refused to work with my
one income they would not even talk
to us, they gave us the royal
runaround and now the house is up
for sale for market value and the
payment is $400 less than the rent I
pay.
This trend is going on all over the
world and it is a crying shame.

Surveying the
economic wreckage
Editor,
In his Jan. 12 letter “Stock market
liquidity,” Jack Hickey looks over
the wreckage of our economy and
comes to two conclusions. First, it is
all the fault of government workers.
Second, the solution is he should not
be taxed at all on his dividends and
capital gains, and we need to make
sure high-income Wall Street para-
sites should continue to be able to
afford their lattes.
Silly me, I thought our problem
was an economy built on debt and
asset bubbles burst, leading to a
meltdown of the financial system
and then the real economy of actual
production.
Trillions of dollars of ersatz finan-
cial wealth have been lost in the
unregulated financial casino that
defined our economy for the past 20
years, first in the bursting of the
stock market bubble and then the
end of the real estate bubble. Under
the U6 measure (the one in use until

Clinton’s presidency), our unem-
ployment rate could be 16.6 percent.
People are being thrown out of their
homes, the few remaining defined
benefits pensions are at risk, and
401(k)s have been decimated. And
Mr. Hickey’s solution is to rebuild
this failed system with even worse
materials. There is no legitimate pol-
icy reason that dividends and capital
gains should be taxed at a lower rate
than wages. When one buys shares in
an IPO, one can reasonably call it
investment and suggest it be treated
differently than other income. A new
company gets capital to produce a
product. Every time those shares are
sold afterwards, not a single penny
of new capital is generated. One is
merely trading ownership rights.
Odd that a Libertarian should pro-
pose more goodies for a financial
system that convinced us we could
weave flax into gold and leave aus-
terity for everyone else.
Alfred Lerner
San Carlos
Tax on financial
speculation is warranted
Editor,
In response to Jack Hickey’s most
recent letter (“Stock market liquidi-
ty” in the Jan. 12 edition of The
Daily Journal), I support Don Havis
and Pat Gray’s earlier letters in their
advocacy of a “sales tax” on finan-
cial speculation transactions as a
way to raise revenue.
The reality of having to pay a tax
on all our purchases with our after-
tax dollars should certainly be sup-
plemented with such a tax on those
who buy and sell financial instru-
ments and stocks. I imagine we can
have fairly large block transactions
taxed and small individual efforts
exempt to a certain level. To think
that folks who nail the shingles on
your roof should pay more on their
financial gain than someone who just
moves around their cash in the hope
of making some profit makes no
sense whatsoever.
His further suggestion to tax union
dues is totally laughable. Unions are
nonprofit advocacy groups that lobby
to advance the welfare of their mem-
bers. That’s a bit different than the
for-profit corporations trying to
influence policy for their own advan-
tage. If all non-breathing organiza-
tions were not allowed to participate
in our political process we’d be far
better off, even if that included
unions as well as corporations. The
sooner we repeal corporate “person-
hood,” the sooner we’ll be on track
to take back our democracy.

OPINION
Response to Moloney letter
Editor,
Mike Moloney’s letter, published in
the Jan. 10 edition of the Daily
Journal, makes me ask is the presi-
dent above the law? Although I
respect Moloney’s relentless pursuit
of justice on this issue, he is
absolutely out of his mind.
Mike assumes that we the readers
are morons and that we do not know
what “oath,” “solemnly swear” or
“faithfully execute” means. George
Bush knew what it meant when he
decided to retaliate against Iraq
(allies of the Islamic terrorists) in
response to 3,000 murdered
Americans on Sept. 11, or did
Moloney forget that? What’s next Mr.
Moloney? Do you want America to
make restitutions to the people of
Iraq? Are you kidding me? You ran
for office five times as a Republican,
but your actions prove that you are
either a RINO or a “closet liberal,”
take your pick.
No one likes war, but Bush did
what any president would have under
the circumstances. To the best of his
ability, he preserved, protected and
defended the Constitution of the
United States and, in case you
haven’t noticed, we have not been
attacked since.
Noe C. Chavez
San Mateo
Is Congress above the law?
Editor,
Mike Moloney asks in his Jan.10
letter, “Is the president above the
law,” the question of whether our
president is limited in his powers by
the Constitution. This is a tough
question because there are two valid
answers — one de jure (by law) and
one de facto (in fact). By law he is
limited by the Constitution; but in
fact he is not limited and does what
ever he wants to (or what every his
financial backers want him to do).
Mr. Maloney’s question should also
include the Congress. Is it their duty
to represent us, the people? Or is it
their duty to serve their paymasters?
Again there are two valid answers.
Yes, they should vote as directed by
their constituents, but in fact they do
not. The people of this nation want
the wars to end, the richest people in
the nation to pay higher taxes and we
want single payer health care. So
what? The wars go on, the rich get
richer and take care of your health
and don’t get sick.

continue to do so. Just not when writing to me at
the Daily Journal.
The double-space phenomena has had its time and it is
no longer necessary. Why? Because most of us type on
computers and not on typewriters. Typewriter space bars
didn’t give enough space, so people who learned on them
learned to double space.
Now, computers automatical-
ly make the space bigger. So
there is no need for the dou-
ble-thumb slam after each
sentence. If you still type on
a typewriter, that’s cute and
noble, but I feel sorry for you
since we have this new inven-
tion that came out after the
word processor. It’s the com-
puter. It can be a pain, but
it’s overall very helpful.
I normally don’t pay any
mind to the double spacers.
They don’t affect me in nor-
mal circumstances, but when
letter writers or obituary writers use double spaces, I
have to take them out. It’s not that big of a deal really. I
do a quick find and replace on this great word-processing
program called News Edit Pro. It’s like the inventors
knew this might be a problem. It probably kills three
minutes of my day. I can live with it.
But you may ask, what is the reason for this sudden
attention on the archaic practice of double spaces?
Another time killer. Facebook.
It started innocently enough. A former classmate read a
story on Slate about how Julian Assange double spaces.
The Slate writer then went into a long reason why double
spacing is no longer necessary and a key point of the
article was that people are adamantly in favor of double
spacing for whatever reason — it’s how they were taught,
it’s “standard,” they like how it looks.
The classmate inquired of four people what their
thoughts were. One was me. Another works for USA
Today. Another is a blogger. The other one, I don’t know.
But she posted it on Facebook, which I determined is
now a hot bed of fervent opinion and touchy nerves. Still
at the office on a Friday night, I responded to the post, “I
can’t stand double spaces. I would probably have three to
five extra minutes a day if people who sent me letters to
the editor used single spaces after periods.” I also posted
a link from Wikipedia that the copy editor found:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sentence_spacing and also
made the big mistake of writing, “He also said double
spacing is for old people.”
Bad move. That statement set off a firestorm of post-
ings with full disclosures of people’s ages, experiences
and preferences. “I guess 34 is considered old. I am a life
long 2-spacer. Will be tough habit to break. I think it just
looks nicer too,” said one respondent.
Another wrote, “Sorry, I won’t give up my extra space.
Many of us old enough to have taken ‘typing’ rather than
‘keyboarding’ in school are probably not going to change
without a fight.” Apparently I hit a nerve with one of my
classmate’s Facebook friends and suddenly I was a jerk.
Not wanting to cause a stink, I tried to make peace. “OK,
how about everyone agrees that newspaper style is single
space? For everything else, you are on your own. Didn’t
mean to hit a nerve. Just trying to help,” I wrote.
The firestorm subsided, but the comments rolled on —
on a Friday night. The comments trickled into the week-
end, then ended with my classmate thanking everyone for
their comments. But I knew I was one snide comment
away from a full-on multi-day battle with a group of pro-
fessionals I had never met and who I will likely never
encounter again.
I know some of you who are veterans of such in-depth
and fiery Facebook discussions might think my dismay of
it is cute in itself. And for those who believe social net-
working is the great flattener, the thing that creates the
opportunity for the global cafe conversation on any inter-
esting topic, I beg to differ. I see it as the great miscom-
municator, with random thoughts, judgments and defen-
sive postures given ultimate rule by their sheer volume.
There is little depth that can be provided with such a
forum and people are generally too quick to anger.
I never saw myself as much of a Facebooker anyway,
most of my posts consist of my column and a few tersely
worded sentences like “We’re back from Italy.” I do like
keeping up on the birth of children and other random
goings-on from others I know. But perhaps it’s time to
give Facebook a little space. Just not double space.

NEW YORK — Boeing Co. and

IBM’s net tops Street; outsourcing deals pick up

By Jordan Robertson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO — IBM Corp.’s
better-than-expected fourth quarter prof-
it shows the momentum from a new
mainframe computer and a pickup in
businesses’ interest in outsourcing their
information technology chores.
The numbers, reported Tuesday, come
as corporations are spending more to
upgrade their computer systems.
The trend has benefited companies
such as IBM that specialize in corporate
sales, even as consumer demand for
electronics is lagging, depressing other
companies’ results.
Because it only sells to businesses,
IBM’s results aren’t a perfect gauge of
the health of the overall technology
world. But the 9 percent increase in net
income and 7 percent increase in rev-
enue compared to a year ago demon-
strate the strength of the recovery of cor-
porate tech spending, a market that was
eviscerated during the Great Recession
amid widespread budget freezes.
IBM said after the market closed that
net income was $5.26 billion, or $4.24
per share, topping analysts’ projections
for $4.08 per share. In the year-ago peri-
od, IBM earned $4.81 billion, or $3.65
per share.
Revenue was $29.02 billion. Analysts
expected $28.18 billion.
The stock rose $3.60, or 2.4 percent,
to $154.25 in extended trading.
Investors were likely reacting to an
increase in signings of new service con-
tracts, particularly a 24 percent jump in
new outsourcing contracts.

City considers DUI mug shots on Facebook
LOS ANGELES — Police in a city ranked top in the state
for alcohol-related traffic fatalities might soon be trying a new
tactic to keep drunken drivers off the road: Electronic shaming
on Facebook.
In a contentious move that has raised the hackles of privacy
advocates and been met with resistance from a police depart-
ment fearful of alienating residents, a councilman in
Huntington Beach wants police to begin posting the mug shots
of everyone who is arrested more than once for driving while
under the influence.
“If it takes shaming people to save lives, I am willing to do
it,” said Devin Dwyer, the councilman behind the proposal.
“I’m hoping it prevents others from getting behind the wheel
and getting inebriated.”

Credit card problems ebb as 2010 comes to close

NEW YORK — The nation’s top credit card issuers on
Tuesday said the number of accounts that slipped into default
fell to their lowest points of 2010 in December, and signs point
to continued improvement in coming months.
Five of the six biggest card issuers posted their lowest rates
for charge-offs, or accounts written off as uncollectible.
While the rates of balances companies wrote off remains
high by historical standards, they fell consistently throughout
the year.
Importantly, rates for payments late by 30 days or more also
reached lows.

Amgen to sell facility to German drugmaker

THOUSAND OAKS — Amgen Inc. said Tuesday it signed a

opment and manufacturing facility in Fremont.
Financial terms were not disclosed.
The100,000-square-foot facility employs about 360 workers,
who will join Boehringer. The deal is expected to close in March.
Shares of Amgen rose 1 cent to $57.30 in after-hours trading
after rising 79 cents to close at $57.29 during the regular trad-
ing session.

Oceana and a 56-34 win over San Mateo.
Baker had a major hand in both wins. He

Baker poured in 23 points — hitting five 3-

Vikings down Colts
By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
As far as the Mills girls’ soccer team is con-
cerned, this is moving week in the Peninsula
Athletic League Ocean Division standings.
Despite not having lost an Ocean Division
game this season, the Vikings found them-
selves in third place in the standings — look-
ing up at El Camino and Capuchino. With two
wins this week, the Vikings could find them-
selves atop the table.
Up first was a showdown with host El
Camino. After falling behind 1-0 on Colts’
goal in the 22nd minute, Mills scored three
unanswered goals for a 3-1 victory.
Despite having rival Capuchino on
Thursday, Mills coach Caroline Tiziani said
her team was focused on El Camino Tuesday.
“It’s a big week for us,” Tiziani said. “It’s a
good a win going into Cap Thursday. (But) we
treated this game as very important.”
The two teams met during the preseason
and played to a 2-2 draw. El Camino coach
Imelda Winkelbauer — who used to coach at
Mills and whose daughter, Arleen, played for
the Vikings — was expecting nothing less
than another draw Tuesday and preferred an
out-right win.
“We didn’t play our usual game,”
Winkelbauer said. “I think we knew it would
be a tough game.”
El Camino (3-2 PAL Ocean, 6-2-2 overall)
applied heavy pressure in the opening minutes
of each half, but the Mills defense calmly
cleared away any danger. The Colts did a
good job of getting the ball into the attack
zone, but just could not link up that last pass
or find enough space to get off a clear shot.
Playing in tight quarters of the Vikings’
penalty box, the Colts sometimes tried to beat
three or four defenders off the dribble instead
of looking for an open teammate.
“We played with it (the ball) a little too long
in front of the goal, definitely,” Winkelbauer
said.
The Vikings’ defense had one breakdown
and El Camino capitalized. The Colts drew a

Giants are
bringing
back Ross
By Janie McCauley
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO — Postseason star
Cody Ross has avoided salary arbitration with
the World Series champion San Francisco
Giants, agreeing to terms on a $6.3 million,
one-year contract Tuesday.
The deal marks a nice raise for the former
kid rodeo clown. Ross earned $4.45 million
last season, when he joined the Giants on a
waiver claim from Florida on Aug. 22.
Ross became one of the Giants’ most reli-
able players down the stretch and during an
improbable title run. The
franchise won its first
championship since 1954
and first since moving
West in 1958.
The 30-year-old Ross
quickly became a fan
favorite in the Bay Area.
He hit three of his five
postseason home runs dur-

Packers,Jets show what low seeds can do

By Barry Wilner
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — The NFL can’t be upset
with so many upsets in the playoffs.
What better evidence is needed that the
“anybody can win at any time” mantra is
accurate when two No. 6 seeds are in the con-
ference championship games? And nobody
would be shocked to see both the Green Bay
Packers and New York Jets in the Super Bowl.
Indeed, the wild-card Packers are favored
for Sunday’s NFC title game at Soldier Field,
home of the champions of their division, the
Chicago Bears.
“Yeah, we’re championship caliber,”
Packers linebacker A.J. Hawk said. “But
championship caliber to us isn’t getting to the
NFC championship game. We have a lot high-
er goals than that. We’re where we want to be.
We’ve been saying all year, ’Just give us a
chance to get here.’ Now, it’s up to us.”
And up to the Jets to set up the first Super
Bowl involving non-division winners.
“The idea is to win the Super Bowl, whether
you do it by winning your division or as a
wild card,” Jets cornerback Darrelle Revis
said. “Keep winning.”
Long shots going far in the playoffs, even
winning Super Bowls, is not unheard of.
Consider that since the league went to six
playoff teams in 1990 — there were three
divisions and three wild cards until 2002 —
wild cards have made the title game 14 times.
Counting the Packers and Jets, eight of those
have occurred since 2005. Two of those wild
cards, the 2005 Steelers and 2007 Giants, won
the whole thing.
In ’05, ’08 and this year, a wild card got to
the conference championship match. No
Super Bowl has featured a pair of non-divi-
sion winners.
“We have a lot more, our season is bigger
than just beating the Falcons and going to the
NFC championship game,” Packers defensive
tackle B.J. Raji said. “We’ve got bigger goals
than that. ... We expect to win no matter where
we go.”
They go to Chicago, where the Bears beat
them 20-17 in Week 3, a horrendous perform-
ance in which Green Bay set a team record
with 18 penalties. And barely lost.
The Packers won 10-3 at Lambeau Field in
the season finale to clinch their wild-card
spot. They’ve beaten Philadelphia and top-
seeded Atlanta in road playoff games, and
now are a victory away from becoming the
second No. 6 seed to win a conference cham-
pionship.
Don’t expect the Bears (12-5) to treat the
Packers (12-6) like some rank outsider stand-
ing in their way. Not with all that history
accompanying the longest rivalry in pro foot-
ball. Not with the way Green Bay’s defense
has stymied two of the league’s best offenses
the last two weeks, or the way quarterback
Aaron Rodgers is playing.
Rodgers, though, has not done much against
Chicago this season, throwing for 545 yards,
two touchdowns and two interceptions in the
1-1 split.
Bears coach Lovie Smith expects the usual
animosity between the teams, who will face
off for the 182nd time, but just the second in
the postseason and first since 1941.
“You just look at our history and it does
have a respectful tone, but it can be nasty
also,” Smith said. “It’s going to be a physical
game. We don’t like each other.
“Believe me, there is not a whole lot of love
for us coming up north. But games are sup-
posed to be played on the field.”
Hours later at Pittsburgh (13-4), the Jets
also could add to the Super Bowl wild-card
total against the only previous sixth seed to
make a Super Bowl, the Steelers, who then
beat Seattle for the 2005 title.
The Jets (13-5) were the fifth seed a year
ago and got this far. Indeed, until last year,
when the top-seeded Saints and Colts each
made the Super Bowl, the No. 1 teams from
both conferences hadn’t gotten there since the
1993 season.
So road wins aren’t that unusual, and the
Jets are the best example: They are 4-1 in the
playoffs under coach Rex Ryan, all of those
games away from the Meadowlands.
“We know what it was like to play in a
tough environment,” quarterback Mark
Sanchez said. “We knew that all of our games
were going to be on the road because of our
seed. We know how to play on the road; I
think we’re better on the road, so that’s a huge
help for us. We have a lot of experience doing
it.”

NFL players’ union files collusion claim

By Howard Fendrich
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — The NFL players’ union filed a collu-
sion claim against the league’s owners, another move in the
back-and-forth between the sides as they near the expiration of
their labor contract.
The union originally had until December — 90 days after
the start of the season — to accuse teams of conspiring to
restrict players’ salaries last offseason, but the league agreed to
extend that deadline.
“They have filed that claim. They filed it probably a week
ago. There has been no activity at this point. But it’s something
that was not unexpected,” the league’s lead labor negotiator,
Jeff Pash, said Tuesday, when owners met in Atlanta. “It’s just
another piece of litigation that we have to work our way
through. So we will do that.”
The case is before Stephen Burbank, the same special mas-
ter who is considering a complaint about the league’s TV con-
tracts, which the union says were set up to guarantee the NFL
money even if there were a lockout this year.
Union spokesman George Atallah said Tuesday he could not
comment on the collusion case. Pash said no date has been
scheduled for a hearing.
“It is something they were committed to doing. Their attor-
neys told us that they didn’t see any reason to delay it any fur-
ther,” Pash said. “Our reaction was, ’That’s fine. If you feel
you have a claim and want to file, go ahead and file.”’
Collusion has been an issue in Major League Baseball, and
as recently as September, for example, players and owners in
that sport settled allegations of possible collusion against free
agents after the 2008 and 2009 seasons. As part of the agree-
ment — with no admission of guilt by the teams — some of
baseball’s free-agency rules were changed.
In the 1980s, arbitrators found baseball teams acted in con-
cert against free agents following the 1985, 1986 and 1987
seasons, and the sides agreed to a $280 million settlement —
which took until 2005 to be completely distributed to the play-
ers following claims hearings.
NFL owners and players are trying to negotiate a collective
bargaining agreement to replace the one that expires in March.
Among the key issues are how league revenues will be split by
the sides moving forward; the possible move to an 18-game
regular season; a rookie wage scale; and pensions for former
players.
In Atlanta, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell was asked
about the collusion claim.
“It’s more litigation. I’ve said before: This is not going to get
resolved through litigation,” Goodell said, according to the
NFL Network. “It will get resolved through negotiation. It’s
time to get to the table and negotiate.”
The union’s TV complaint that Burbank is considering says
the NFL structured contracts with its broadcast partners to
make sure rights fees would be paid even with no games in
2011 — while not maximizing revenue from other seasons
when the league would need to share that income with players.
The union says that violates an agreement between the sides
that says the NFL must make good-faith efforts to maximize
revenue for players.

Hope Classic field short on big-name stars

LA QUINTA — Many golfers no

Bob Hope Classic. The Palm Springs
area’s venerable pro-am is too long,

enough for most pros.
Don’t tell that to Bubba Watson,

“I have a lot of good memories,
almost all good memories, from
Melbourne,” said Henin, the 2004
Australian champion and runner-up
here in 2006 and last year, when she
was returning from a career break
from the tour.
Her comeback was stalled after

because of an elbow injury — and is

“I always used to skip the Hope
because of that,” Kuchar said. “I felt
like, how am I ever going to get prac-
tice rounds in? It seems like it’s just a
little too much to handle.”
Kuchar changed his mind after

Clijsters had no charity for former

6-0 victory.
“I expect my opponent to come out
and play their best tennis. She obvi-
ously didn’t do that,” said Clijsters,
who has won the U.S. Open twice
since returning to the tour from a
break to have a child. “But my atti-
tude still was there to try and finish it
off and not let her get back in the

The first-round match involving
Lleyton Hewitt, Clijsters’ ex-fiance,

Evan Longoria are playing this week

from two sets down for the first time
in his career in another late five-setter.
In 15 runs at the Australian Open,
Hewitt’s best finish was his 2005 final
defeat. He’ll be 30 next month.
Australia hasn’t produced a home-
grown winner of the national champi-
onship since Mark Edmondson in
1976. The drought isn’t likely to end
soon.
Now all the talk in Melbourne will
be about Rafael Nadal and his pursuit
for a “Rafa Slam.”
The Spaniard played only 11
games in his opening match Tuesday,
the match curtailed because of
Marcos Daniel’s injured left knee.
Not content to extend his Grand Slam
string of 22 match wins with the 6-0,
5-0 scoreline, Nadal went to the prac-
tice courts to work on his serve.
That’s the element of his game he
thinks he needs to improve to become
the first man in 41 years to hold all
four majors at once.
Westwood, Phil Mickelson and a big
chunk of the sport’s best players are in
Abu Dhabi, while the Hope has just
six of the top 50 — an improvement
from last year, when No. 37 Mike
Weir was the top-ranked golfer in
Palm Springs.
Yet Watson favors the Hope
because his wife, Angie, a 6-foot-4
former WNBA player and multisport
athlete, is playing among the ama-
teurs for the second straight year. He’s
also looking forward to getting back
on the tour grind after the death of his
father, Gerry, from cancer last
October.

would have been easy for Baker to just blow
off his coach, he decided to listen to what
Fountain had to say.
Plus, it’s not like Baker’s free-wheeling
style was piling up wins.
“The way I was playing, we weren’t win-
ning,” Baker said. “When I first started (play-
ing varsity), I really wasn’t agreeing with him
(Fountain) at first. But I realized going 1-on-
1, the rest of my teammates weren’t being
involved.
“I changed my game a lot when [Fountain]
started coaching. I started being more patient
and organized.”
It takes a big man to want to change a style
to which they are accustomed and it takes a
maturity to understand that what may be best
for an individual may not be best for the team.
Fountain said that change has been the main
ingredient to Cap’s success this season.
“When he was younger, I think he was look-
ing at it (playing his style of basketball) as a
way to develop his game and make him a bet-
ter player. He’s just blossomed this year
because he’s learned it’s not just about him.
“And it didn’t happen in November. It hap-
pened at the end of last February.”
It’s not often a high school point guard is
also the team’s leading scorer. As Fountain
said, most of the scoring in the high school
game comes from the shooting guard or post
players. To have both a shooting and point
guard in the same player makes it more diffi-
cult for opposing defenses, knowing a player
like Baker can beat them in one of two ways:
either he’s scoring or he’s setting up his team-
mates to score.
Baker has come to embrace the latter part of
that equation.
“Quite frankly, if we can win a game with
me scoring only eight points [I’ll take it]. It

makes my job easier knowing everyone else is
doing the job,” Baker said. “I know my game
will come. If I get all the rest of my teammates
involved, it opens up my game.”
Regardless of how it is accomplished,
Fountain said Baker’s biggest driving force is
his will to win. However it happens, Baker is
all for it, Fountain said.
“He’s become more fundamental because
he has a desire to win, like I have rarely seen.
He has a heart that is just bulging out of his
chest,” Fountain said. “He wants to win, what-
ever it takes. If it means toning his game
down, he’ll do it. We’ve had two winning sea-
sons after a long drought and that’s because he
set his personal things aside.”

Mexico: Arrest in shooting
of Paraguay soccer player
MEXICO CITY — A fugitive suspect wanted
in last year’s near-fatal bar shooting of Salvador
Cabanas, a former star for Paraguay’s national
football team and Mexico’s Club America, was
arrested in the Mexican capital on Tuesday.
Jose Jorge Balderas, who is known by his ini-
tials “J.J.” and allegedly has ties with Mexico’s
drug trade, was arrested in a wealthy neighbor-
hood of Mexico City, Federal Public Safety
Department Anti-Drug Division chief Ramon
Eduardo Pequeno said in a news conference.

free kick about 35 yards from the Mills goal.
Jamie Renz stepped up and hit a low, line
drive that skirted Mills’ defensive wall and
slipped inside the left post for a 1-0 lead.
From there, it was all Mills. With arguably
one of the most potent offenses in the Ocean
Division, the Vikings ran roughshod through
the El Camino defense, once they solved the
Colts’ off-side trap.
Strikers Jazmin Cazares and Kendra
McIntyre spent most of the game running into
wide open spaces in the heart of El Camino
defense. Center midfielder Olivia Mullins did
an excellent job of distributing to her team-
mates up top, routinely sending perfect
through balls to the charging forwards. It
added up to Mills outshooting the Colts 18-9,
with 14 of those shots on frame.
Truth be told, the final score could have
been a lot worse if not for some strong saves
by El Camino goalkeeper Selina Rodriguez.
But even she couldn’t stop two first-half
goals by Cazares, who used her speed to blow
THE DAILY JOURNAL
Balderas was exhibited at the news conference
with his hair slicked back and his dark beard
trimmed. He stood with his hands crossed as two
heavily armed masked members of the security
force grasped his shoulders.
Pequeno said Balderas denied shooting Cabanas
and instead blamed Francisco Jose Barreto Garcia,
who was arrested last year in the case.
Witnesses have said Cabanas and Balderas got
into an argument when Balderas questioned the
Paraguayan’s performances for his club. Cabanas
was shot in the head at close range.
Cabanas miraculously survived the Jan. 25
shooting but is not expected to return to football.

Cup in South Africa rocked Paraguay’s national
team.
by the defense. Just seven minutes after El
Camino took the lead, Cazares scored the
equalizer. Both Cazares and Mullins came
together in the midfield circle in an attempt
corral a loose ball. It appeared both players
backed off at the last second, but Mullins man-
aged to flick the ball past the defensive line
and into space. Cazares pounced on it, flew by
the defense and calmly slotted a shot past
Rodriguez to knot the score at 1.
Minutes later, Cazares scored what turned
out to be the game winner. Mullins sent a long
pass from her defensive end into the El
Camino half. Cazares split a pair of defenders,
ran onto the ball and blasted a shot from 15
yards into the roof of the net.
After weathering El Camino’s initial push to
open the second half, the Vikings made it 3-1
just 12 minutes after halftime. Again, Mullins
triggered the sequence with a free kick from
45 yards away. She sent a long, diagonal pass
that found Cazares in stride. Cazares couldn’t
cleanly trap the ball, forcing her to take it
wide. She flicked the ball inside, however, to a
charging Ciara Donlon, whose shot scooted
inside the left post for the goal.
“Forwards have a responsibility to finish
and score goals,” Tiziani said. “I have a young
team and experience teaches.”

Jackson hits all the right notes in Raiders introduction
By Josh Dubow
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ALAMEDA — Hue Jackson began his
Oakland Raiders coaching career with the same
sort of bravado that made him so popular in his
one season as the team’s offensive coordinator.
“We’re going to build a bully here,” Jackson
said Tuesday. “This is the Raiders. We know
exactly where we’re headed and what we want to
do. I think our players today are very excited
about where they are going.”
Jackson was introduced at a 100-minute news
conference by owner Al Davis two weeks after
the Raiders announced they were not picking up
the option to retain Tom Cable as coach. While
much of the time was spent discussing why Cable
was not retained, and other matters such as the
collective bargaining agreement and stadium
issues, the purpose of the news conference was to
introduce Jackson.
This hiring was conducted relatively quickly
based on past Raiders searches that carried until
February. Davis said he talked to three candidates
he had interviewed previously, mostly by phone,
but quickly decided he already had his man on
staff.
“Every thing pointed toward the guy on my
right. Everything,” Davis said. “I don’t see any-
thing from a character, personality, anything that
would not, not let me raise his hand and say he
should be the coach of the Raiders and be the
RAIDERS

assaulting three women later that year and
sued by Lutz last June, he kept him on to
coach the 2010 season.
“We had been in turmoil for about a year or
two after the initial stuff came out and so I just
didn’t think we needed another uproar at this
particular time,” Davis said. “Two roads. You
can choose Road A or Road B, either way.”
Cable has acknowledged striking his first
wife, Sandy Cable, with an open hand. He
said the altercation happened more than 20
years ago and was the only time he’s ever
touched a woman inappropriately. Because
that happened before Cable joined the NFL,
he was not punished by the league.

wants to return the Raiders to
Hue Jackson their great tradition. Since
winning the 2002 AFC
championship, Oakland has gone eight years
without a winning record.
The Raiders went 8-8 this past season, ending a
streak of seven straight years with at least 11 loss-
es. Cable got credit from many of the players for
the turnaround but it wasn’t enough to satisfy
Davis, who was upset by his coach’s proclama-
tion at the end of the season that “you can’t call us
losers anymore.”
Jackson was also widely liked by players on
both sides of the ball as he brought energy and
competitiveness to practice that motivated the
defense as well as the offense.
“I don’t really feel that I have to overcome any-
thing,” Jackson said. “I’ve been here with our
players. Our players have been very supportive.
Today alone I got 20 text messages from our play-
ers, who are very excited about me being here,
being the head coach, and they can’t wait to get
back here. Because I think our players know as I
talked earlier, we’re going to create an environ-
restrained by assistants John Marshall, Willie
Brown and Lionel Washington.
Davis said he didn’t want to get into the
middle of the dispute.
“Can’t get the story,” Davis said. “You
know, it’s like Gitmo. Trying to find out, did
they waterboard those guys or not? No, really.
It’s hard to believe. How many guys went in?
Four guys went into the room with a guy, the
guys comes out with a broken jaw and no one
saw it.”
On other topics in Davis’ first news confer-
ence in more than 16 months:
• Davis took some blame for the Raiders
struggles the past eight years when they have
failed to post a winning record. “I have made
mistakes. Yes, there’s no question about it, and
you got to have great players. But you also,
sometimes, have the players and don’t get it
done. So, you’re saying, should I take some of
the blame? I certainly do.”
• He said the team was hurt by the failures
of former No. 1 overall pick JaMarcus
Russell, who was cut last May after being paid
more than $39 million for three ineffective
seasons. “We had a big investment in this guy.
Basically, he’s a good person but he’s got per-
sonal problems, and I decided that it was time
that we were not going to fight it anymore.”
ment here for our players to be as good as they
can be, on offense, defense and special teams.”
Jackson has extensive experience as an assis-
tant in the NFL, working in Washington,
Cincinnati, Atlanta and Baltimore for nearly a
decade before joining the Raiders. He has
coached quarterbacks, receivers and running
backs, along with three stints as an offensive coor-
dinator.
His most successful stint was this season in
Oakland. Led by quarterback Jason Campbell, a
breakout season from running back Darren
McFadden and big plays from rookie receiver
Jacoby Ford, the Raiders finished sixth in the
league in scoring with 410 points. That was the
sixth-most points in franchise history and a huge
improvement from 2009.
“My job is to do everything I can to take this
team where we know we want to go, which is the
Super Bowl,” Jackson said. “Obviously this is a
very talented and young football team here, as
coach just talked about. We have some tremen-
dous players on the offensive side of the football.”
Jackson will remain the primary play-caller as
head coach but must go out and hire coordinators
on both sides of the ball. Jackson mentioned Al
Saunders as a potential candidate on offense.
Saunders worked with Campbell for two years in
Washington and has interviewed in the past for
openings in Oakland.
Campbell had a solid debut season in Oakland
despite sharing time with Bruce Gradkowski. He
• He said he was not pleased with Cable’s
proclamation that “we’re not losers anymore”
after the Raiders won the season finale to fin-
ish 8-8. “If that’s not being a loser in our
world, I don’t know what it is, come in .500.
That’s never been my goal.”
• He explained why he still believes in
receiver Darrius Heyward-Bey, who caught
just 37 passes in his first two seasons.
“Explosion. He can catch, he’s getting better
and he’s a good guy. He’s going to be good.”
• He said he wouldn’t know whether Pro
Bowl cornerback Nnamdi Asomugha would
be brought back after the final year of his con-
tract voided, but hinted the Raiders would
have cut him instead of picking up an option
that was set to be worth at least $16.8 million.
“Can that $17 million bring you two or three
quality players to help you win?”
• He also said he was not surprised he won
a grievance hearing against former coach
Lane Kiffin, who was seeking more than
$300,000, after being fired for cause in
September 2008. “I beat him because he lied.
He’s a liar. He lied to you guys.”
• He said the team needed a new stadium —
preferably at the same site as the current home
— and was hurt by low revenues. The Raiders
sold out only one game this season but Davis
THE DAILY JOURNAL
completed 59 percent of his passes with 13 touch-
downs, eight interceptions and a passer rating of
84.5. He was at his best in the final five games
after Gradkowski went down with a season-end-
ing shoulder injury.
He completed 64.7 percent of his passes over
the final five games with six touchdowns, two
interceptions and a passer rating of 96.4.
“He played flawless. He played almost as good
as you can play as a quarterback in our league,”
Jackson said. “Led us to some very impressive
wins. And I look forward to him doing the same
thing this year in our system, same system, oppor-
tunity to go out with the same teammates, OK,
and go out and play the way we know he can
play.”
Jackson also said defensive coordinator John
Marshall would not return and said line coach
Mike Waufle could be a candidate to replace him.
Davis blamed defensive breakdowns late in the
season against Miami and Jacksonville as part of
the reason the Raiders did not make the playoffs.
“I thought with about five games to go we had
a great chance to get into the playoffs if we didn’t
mess it up,” Davis said. “We messed it up. I’m not
saying necessarily on offense, but we didn’t play
well enough on defense to get that chance that I
thought we could have gotten, and had we gotten
in the playoffs, I compared it to the ’80 team. We
came in as a wild card and made a run and won
the Super Bowl.”
hopes a new labor deal will help Oakland’s
cause. “We don’t have the resources that other
teams have, but, but, I think we’ve shown that
we can compete. It’s a question now of win-
ning, and doing better than them. But it
depends on what happens in the collective
bargaining agreement.”
• He would not give an opinion on a pro-
posed 18-game season that commissioner
Roger Goodell wants in the new collective
bargaining agreement, but said the talk of
increased injuries was overplayed. “There’s
no question that the ownership wants it, and
Roger seems to have a way of getting things
done if he wants it. So I’d rather not say what
I think but I think the business of injury is
overplayed.”
• He said he wasn’t worried about recent
criticisms from Pro Bowl punter Shane
Lechler, who was upset the team let Cable go,
pointing out that Lechler talked about leaving
as a free agent after the 2008 season. “Shane
said publicly he wasn’t coming back, he did-
n’t like it here. A month later, he was coming
back because I gave him the highest paid con-
tract of a specialist in pro football. No, these
things happen, that’s a part of our lives, I read
about marriage breakups, all those things.”

Stir-frying for better taste
By Jim Romanoff
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
This year, how about a Chinese New Year’s
resolution — more stir-frying.
It’s a choice that not only can lead to more
flavorful eating, but also healthier food.
Grace Young, author of “Stir-Frying to the
Sky’s Edge,” says this traditional Chinese
technique, which involves cooking food
quickly over high heat in small amounts of oil,
is intrinsically healthy because it calls for
small amounts of meat and fat, but plenty of
vegetables.
Young says there are a few essentials for
creating successful stir-fries.
First, get a good wok or large skillet.
Whichever you use, it should conduct heat
well and be large enough to hold all the ingre-
dients without crowding them. She avoids
nonstick surfaces and recommends choosing
either a 14-inch flat-bottom carbon steel wok
or a 12-inch stainless steel wok or skillet.
Next, be sure to heat the pan first, then add
the oil, then add the food. Adding oil to a cold
wok or frying pan and then heating it will
cause foods to stick to the pan.
In terms of oil, Young says it’s important to
choose one with a high smoke point, such as
peanut, grapeseed or canola. These help
quickly sear the foods and won’t break down
over high heat.
Lastly, Young cautions against overcrowd-
ing, which will cause meat and vegetables to
steam or braise rather than caramelize and
cook quickly as they should with this fast,
high-heat technique.
This recipe for stir-fried crystal shrimp from
Young’s book is a tasty way to celebrate
Chinese New Year. Not only are shrimp an
excellent low-fat source of protein, they also
are considered by the Chinese to represent
happiness and laughter and often are included
in New Year’s dishes.

Work around hidden fat in croquettes

By Jim Romanoff
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
The humble croquette may be a
great way to use up leftovers, but
it’s also an easy way to chow down
hidden fat and calories.
These crispy balls (or patties) of
minced meat and vegetables can
contain plenty of unwanted — and
unexpected — fat and calories, so
you need to concoct your croquettes
with a little nutritional know-how.
Start with lean protein, such as
chicken or turkey breasts, leftover
pork tenderloin or a low-fat
seafood, such as cooked shrimp,
crab or even a white fish such as
tilapia.
Croquettes also usually contain
vegetables and starches as fillers, as
well as some sort of moist ingredi-
ents to bind everything together.
For the fillers, lean toward vegeta-
bles, which add more flavor and
moisture, rather than starches such
as breadcrumbs or rice.
Aromatics such as onions, garlic
and peppers season while also
adding a variety of colors and tex-
tures.

whether it wants to travel that route.
The San Carlos City Council needs to
make a decision at its Feb. 24 meeting,
said Mayor Omar Ahmad, who reminded
the subcommittee this could be “an
opportunity not only for San Carlos to
save money but for the county to save
money.”
All officials want is multiple proposals,
Klein said.
“When you’re given one choice, it’s
not actually a choice,” he said.
Groom and Tissier remarked several
times they understood the city’s tight
timeline, particularly as the joint
Belmont-San Carlos Fire Department
will dissolve Oct. 13. However, each
wanted more information about the pos-
sibility of both the county and city join-
ing up with others like Foster City and
Belmont to create a broader department.
“This gives us a chance to see where
we fit in the picture,” Tissier said.
The matter may also put “the feet to
the fire” for others considering regional
models, Tissier said.
Dan Belville, the joint fire chief for the
cities of San Mateo and Foster City, told
the board of those agencies’ efforts to
dilute multiple services. Each city stands
to save about $500,000 and the county
and city of San Carlos might have simi-
lar results with a larger partnership, he
said.
However, even if the county prefers to
submit a proposal to work only with San
Carlos, “in the end everybody is going to
win,” Belville said.
He offered in the next month to sketch
out possibilities for the subcommittee’s
consideration.
If the subcommittee is satisfied with
answers at a specially called meeting in
mid-February, it will either shelve the
idea or ask the full board in March to

Mateo and Foster City. It is valued at
$2.2 million, according to the San Mateo
County Tax Collector’s Office. Plans for
a three-story, 76-unit multi-family resi-
dential building, under the name
Mariners Island Condominiums, were
approved by the San Mateo City Council
in 2007. However, those plans were
never submitted. This location was dis-
cussed previously.
New to the conversation are three
Foster City locations: 1164 Trinton
Drive; 551 Foster City Blvd.; and 1050-
1064 Shell Blvd.
The 6-acre parcel at 1164 Trinton
Drive is valued at $20.6 million, accord-
ing to the San Mateo County Tax
Collector’s Office. The 4.9-acre parcel at
551 Foster City Blvd. is valued at $5.4
million. An online search showed office

the city to have better knowledge of
what is on hand, said Skeels.
The project will result in an inventory
linked to Google maps that will include
the exact location of each tree along with
its species, height, health, size of the
planter and whether it’s under or over
utilities, said Disco. That last detail can
come in handy for the Department of
Public Works. Trees along El Camino
Real are maintained by Caltrans and por-
tions of the Caltrain corridor are main-
tained by the transit agency but will still
be counted.
The $80,000 project was made possi-
ble through a $40,000 Cal Fire grant, an
$11,000 grant from the Association of
Bay Area Governments, $10,000 from
Burlingame and $20,000 of in-kind
time, like employees working for the
consider proposing a contract that could
save both entities hundreds of thousands
of dollars but which local firefighters
worry could mean longer work weeks,
frozen salaries and possible pink slips.
The bottom line, Ahmad said, is the
city must be able to control costs and find
a service delivery model more in line
with its needs.
The city of San Carlos began last year
dissolving its fire service joint powers
authority with the city of Belmont in
hopes of stemming a decade of cuts and
plugging a $3.5 million deficit. City lead-
ers have already outsourced its entire
police department as well as parks main-
tenance and payroll. Fire service costs
the city $6.3 million annually, which
officials said is just too much.
The preliminary county proposal sub-
mitted last week included contract
options ranging from $3.8 million to $5.7
million per year, depending upon the size
of the staff, whether salaries are frozen
and the inclusion of the hazardous mate-
rials unit.
Hazmat would add an extra $19,800 to
the price tag for 11 staff at the Cal Fire
scale or $71,000 at the frozen San Carlos
level.
The cheapest choice would spare the
city of San Carlos millions of dollars —
an amount Vice Mayor Andy Klein
or business rental space available at both
locations.
Lastly, the 6-acre location at 1050-
1064 Shell Blvd. is valued at $4.46 mil-
lion. The post office is one of the servic-
es offered at the included addresses.
A request for further comment was not
answered by the District Office.
However, Hudak noted the time frame
isn’t dire.
Increasing enrollment and the desire
to offer neighborhood schools to fami-
lies resulted in the district searching for
a home for a yet-to-be-built fourth
Foster City elementary school. Since
that time, the district has realized it may
be one additional year before reaching
the projected enrollment peak, said
Hudak. Now the district is hoping to
decide how to proceed by the end of this
school year.
During the process, portions of a 15-
acre site in the heart of Foster City has
topped the district’s list of ideal loca-
tions. Last summer, Foster City officials
cause, explained Skeels.
Until 1985, the trees were individually
listed on index cards. Each day, an
employee would make notes on the
cards should something change, said
Disco. In 1985, the city moved its sys-
tem to a computer, a novel change at the
time. Things haven’t been updated much
since then, however.
The love affair with trees dates back to
the late 1800s when landscape architect
John McLaren came on board to help
develop the Burlingame/Hillsborough
area. McLaren favored elms and euca-
lyptus trees. The eucalyptus trees were
originally planted to allow the elms to
prosper, then be removed. It didn’t work
out that way, since the elms weren’t as
successful. That left the eucalyptus as
the main tree of the area.
Many of these trees were planted
along County Road, which later became
El Camino Real. The corridor was
adorned with trees long before it was
paved in 1914. Drivers began complain-
ing about the safety hazards of the bark-
THE DAILY JOURNAL
called “jaw dropping” — but also save
the county $650,000.
The county does not have its own
stand-alone fire department but partners
with Cal Fire. Over the last five fiscal
years, the county has spent more than $3
million from its general fund to subsidize
the fire fund and expects to use another
$1.05 million this fiscal year, said
Deputy County Manager Peggy Jensen.
That subsidy is only for operations, not
any necessary replacement of vehicles or
facilities.
The first estimated $300,000 in savings
would come from sharing command,
staff, training and advanced life support.
Another $350,000 in savings could come
from transferring two of the three Cal
Fire staff to Station 16 in San Carlos to
operate a “quick attack” vehicle.
Another change would be scheduling.
Cal Fire used a 72-hour work week
scheduled, requiring only 17 employees
for the same level of service San Carlos
provides with 20, according to Cal Fire.
However, firefighter union local 2400
has bristled at the idea, as well as other
changes such as reduction in staff and
salary freezes.
The union is instead throwing its sup-
port behind a different proposal put forth
by Redwood City and which it hopes
could lead to a future regional depart-
ment, including San Carlos’ current fire
partner, Belmont.
The three-year, $5.8 million proposal
does not include the hazmat unit or
upgrades but suggest savings by reducing
staff and positions.
San Carlos officials are meeting this
week with Redwood City leaders to fur-
ther discuss the proposal. The Redwood
City Council must still vote on whether it
approves of the submitted proposal.
Even if the county and San Carlos set-
tle on a contract, the city would still like
to be considered for future regionaliza-
tion, said Interim City Manager Jeff
Maltbie.
made it clear the site would not house a
school. District officials then turned
their sights to private property.
Thursday’s conversation is the first
agendized conversation about such prop-
erty. This is not the first time the district
has considered land outside the Foster
City limits, an option last discussed pub-
licly in October 2009.
Population in Foster City is growing
with a projected 2,303 students in the
2012-13 school year, according to a dis-
trict staff report. About 385 additional
students are expected to enroll by the
2013-14 school year. Enrollment has
been managed by increasing class sizes,
a move temporarily allowed by the state
through the 2011-12 school year.
Ultimately, the new school is slated to be
finished and ready for students in
January 2014.
The board meets 7 p.m. Thursday, Jan.

Drive, Foster City.
covered giants in 1916 with no action
taken. Battles again erupted in the 1930s
and have continued through the years
any time removing even a limb is
brought up in discussion.
Battles aside, pride for the leafy-
canopy covered city was always an
issue. In 1977, the Beautification
Commission even produced a guide to
the various trees in Burlingame. It fea-
tures photos, scientific names, maps and
a brief history. Only two copies of the
about 60-page booklet remained in the
main branch of the library in 2007 when
the debate over trees came to a boil.
Tom, a fabled eucalyptus tree that was
located on Easton Drive, was removed in
September 2007 after a lengthy debate.
Before Tom was cut down, the city cre-
ated a detailed citywide tree manage-
ment plan and acceptable list of replace-
ment trees for Easton Drive.
Burlingame has been named a Tree
City USA for 31 consecutive year —
furthering the argument to keep large
trees despite safety concerns.

Wednesday, Jan. 19, 2011
In the coming year, you are likely to get involved in several
joint endeavors, in the business and the social spheres. Your
social affairs could enhance your commercial involvements
and vice versa.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) - Because your judgment
could be faulty at times, you might have to retrace your steps.
Heed the old saying: “What you don’t have in your head, you
have to have in your feet.”
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) - Although you like to work
at your own pace, you might not be given that luxury. This
may be due mostly to the demands and responsibilities being
foisted on you by others.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) - You won’t be able to rely on
others to bail you out when you get in way over your noggin.
It is going to be completely up to you to unravel whatever
trouble you’ve wrought.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) - Regardless of the fact that your
intentions are good, don’t make any major decision without
first discussing it with your mate. S/he might have a different
idea about things.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) - Details can be important and
should never be overlooked. However, it is also easy to get
caught up in trivial points that can easily obscure the purpose.
Stand back for a better view.
or not to take a gamble on something of value. Being gullible
could distort the picture.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) - Even if you truly believe your
way of doing something is far better than the methods of your
associates, it is smarter to make some concessions or adjust-
ments in the interest of cooperation.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) - Be careful that you don’t use your
magnificent, imaginative faculty of vision for anticipating only
negative results. Factor in some realistic thinking that is more
positive.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) - Although your financial trends
may have had some vitality lately, they still could be sub-
jected to an occasional setback. This could be one of those
topsy-turvy days.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) - Some kind of critical objective
that you were hoping to achieve may fall prey to negative
circumstances of your own making. Consider what you can be
doing differently.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) - You may have to contend with
an arrangement similar to one that you handled poorly in the
past. Stop and reevaluate what you’re doing, and profit from
your past mistakes instead of repeating them.
Previous
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) - High hopes and good
expectations have excellent chances of being fulfilled if you Sudoku
pursue them in a pragmatic manner. Be a conscientious doer,
