California bill
limits rifle, shotgun
sales to one per month
SACRAMENTO Californians
would be limited to buying a maximum of one rifle or shotgun each
month under proposed legislation in
the state Assembly.
It would be the same limit currently
in place for handguns.
Democratic Assemblyman Miguel
Santiago of Los Angeles says his
AB1674 responds to a trend of
Californians purchasing more long
guns than handguns in the last
decade. He says it makes no sense
that anyone can buy as many rifles or
shotguns as they want at any time.
Other lawmakers last week introduced two bills aimed at closing a
legal loophole that allows firearms
manufacturers to include bullet buttons that let rifle owners rapidly
exchange empty ammunition magazines for full ones.
The bills follow a deadly terror
attack involving assault rifles in San
Bernardino last month.

Union submits signatures for


$15 California minimum wage
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SACRAMENTO A faction of
Californias largest union began submitting signatures Tuesday for a ballot initiative asking voters to raise Californias
minimum wage to $15 per hour by 2021,
one of two competing proposals vying for
the November ballot.
Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom joined SEIUs
United Healthcare Workers West in San
Francisco as union officials turned in signatures. The group said it has collected
600,000 names, far more than the nearly
366,000 required to qualify an initiative
this year.
The initiative, the latest in a nationwide
effort by unions and other groups to raise
the wage, would raise the states minimum
wage by $1 a year starting in 2017 until it
hits $15 in 2021. After that, increases
would be automatically tied to the cost of
living.

While we know voters support some increase, this


proposal to nearly double the minimum wage goes too far.

Oakland man whose

An Oakland man whose family said he was 117 years old

Andrew Hatch died quietly Monday at the Oakland home of
daughter Delane Sims, who had been taking care of him there
for the past two years, Sims said.
No one stays on this earth forever, Sims told the Contra
Costa Times, a newspaper that has chronicled hatch since he
turned 107. But even 117 was not enough; I didnt want to
say goodbye.
The lack of a birth certificate kept Hatch from being officially recognized as the oldest person alive by the organizations that acknowledge such things, though he had for years
had drivers licenses and other official documents with his
age on them.
His family said he was born in Louisiana on Oct. 7, 1898,
in a time and place when birth certificates were rare for poor
black children.

Calls for boycott of Oscars grow over lack of diversity


By Jake Coyle
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK Amid calls for a boycott of


the Academy Awards over its all-white acting
nominees and Spike Lee and Jada Pinkett
Smith both announcing they would sit out
this years ceremony, the academys president said it was time for major changes and
soon.
Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and
Sciences President Cheryl Boone Isaacs
issued a statement promising more diversity,
and quickly, after both Lee and Pinkett spoke
out Monday.
In a lengthy Instagram post, Lee said he
cannot support the lily white Oscars.
Noting that he was writing on Martin Luther
King Jr. Day, Lee who in November was
given an honorary Oscar at the Governors
Awards said he was fed up: Forty white
actors in two years and no flava at all, he
wrote. We cant act?!
In a video message on Facebook, Pinkett
Smith also said she wouldnt attend or watch
the Oscars in February. Pinkett Smith, whose
husband Will Smith wasnt nominated for his
performance in the NFL head trauma drama
Concussion, said it was time for people of
color to disregard the Academy Awards.
Begging for acknowledgement, or even
asking, diminishes dignity and diminishes
power, she said. And we are a dignified people and we are powerful.
She added: Lets let the academy do them,
with all grace and love. And lets do us differently. The video had amassed 4.5 million by
mid-Monday afternoon.
Last years all-white acting nominees also
drew calls for a boycott, though not from
such prominent individuals as Lee and
Pinkett Smith. Whether it had any impact or
not, the audience for the broadcast, hosted by
Neil Patrick Harris, was down 16 percent
from the year prior, a six-year low.
Isaacs has made a point of presenting a
more inclusive show this year. The Feb. 28
broadcast will be hosted by Chris Rock and
produced by Django Unchained producer

Director Spike Lee and actress Jada Pinkett Smith said they will boycott next months Academy

broadcast, called the ceremony The White


BET Awards.

When Oscar nominations were announced


Thursday, Isaacs acknowledged she was disappointed that all 20 acting nominees were
again white and promised to continue the
conversation on diversity. Isaacs has worked
to diversify membership for the academy,
which a 2012 study by the Los Angeles Times
found is overwhelming white and male.
But on Monday, Isaacs was more explicit
and promised an examination of the academy
and a more intense drive to diversify.
This is a difficult but important conversation, and its time for big changes, she said
in a statement released Monday night. The
Academy is taking dramatic steps to alter the
makeup of our membership. In the coming
days and weeks we will conduct a review of
our membership recruitment in order to bring
about much-needed diversity in our 2016
class and beyond.
Many awards handicappers expected nominations for Idris Elba of Beasts of No
Nation and Benicio Del Toro for Sicario.
The N.W.A. biopic Straight Outta
Compton also failed to earn a best picture
nomination, despite some predictions it
would. Ryan Cooglers acclaimed Rocky
sequel Creed scored a nomination only for
Sylvester Stallone. (Lees own movie, the
Chicago gang violence hip-hop musical
Chi-Raq celebrated by some and scorned
by others also went unnoticed.)
The hashtag OscarsSoWhite, created last
year, was quickly resurrected online following the nominations. The Rev. Al Sharpton
who last year met with former Sony head
Amy Pascal following leaked emails that
some viewed as racist on Friday lambasted
the academy.
Hollywood is like the Rocky Mountains,
the higher up you get the whiter it gets and
this years Academy Awards will be yet another Rocky Mountain Oscar, said Sharpton.
In his post, Lee made it clear the Academy
Awards is only part of the problem in an
industry with deep-rooted diversity issues. In
his Governors Awards speech, Lee said, Its
easier to be the president of the United States
as a black person than be the head of a studio.

Foster City Levee Protection Planning and Improvements Project CIP 301-657
The City of Foster City invites you to attend a Public Scoping Session on Thursday, February
4, 2016 at 7:00 pm in the City Council Chambers, 620 Foster City Boulevard, Foster City,
California on the scope of the Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for the Foster City Levee
Protection Planning and Improvements Project (CIP 301-657)
Purpose
The purpose of the meeting is to accept comments from the public on the scope of the Environmental
Impact Report that will be prepared for the levee improvement project. Comments on the scope
should focus on the following probable environmental effects of the project Aesthetics, Air Quality,
Biological Resources, Geology and Soils, Greenhouse Gas Emissions, Hazards and Hazardous
Materials, Hydrology and Water Quality, Land Use and Planning, Noise and Vibration, Public
Services, Traffic and Transportation and Public Services, Utilities and Recreation. In addition, the EIR
will include an analysis of the projects consistency with relevant City and regional planning policies,
as well as potential alternatives to the proposed project.
Project Location
The Levee Protection Planning and Improvements Project (CIP 301-657) is entirely within the
City of Foster City (City) levee corridor from the
San Mateo City Limit to the San Mateo/Belmont
City Limit. The project site includes approximately
43,000 feet (8 miles) of levees that surround
Foster City along the Bayfront as shown in the
Project Location Map.
Project Description
The purpose of the project is to update the Citys
existing levee system to provide flood protection
in accordance with updated FEMA guidelines and
regain FEMA accreditation for its existing levee
system. Current FEMA guidelines require the
current levee height along the Citys levee system
to be raised to protect the City from flooding
associated with levee overtopping from extreme
high tides or storm surges. In addition, the
improved levee system will be designed to adapt
to future sea level rise while maintaining public
access along the levee system and protections for
sensitive habitat and species.
The San Francisco Bay side of the City levee system is fully tidal open water, slough channels,
wetlands, and mud flats. Land uses on the landward side of the levee system consist of streets,
residential and commercial areas, landscaped open space and recreational areas, unimproved lots,
muted tidal wetlands and seasonal wetlands. Approximately 9,000 properties in Foster City are

Study says millennials


driving rise of Hispanic
voters in 2016 election
By Sergio Bustos
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NASHUA, N.H. Despite a growing pool of potential


Hispanic voters in the United States, driven largely by
young people, Latinos are likely to be underrepresented at
the polls in 2016, a study released Tuesday has found.
The Pew Research Center found that a record number of
Hispanic voters could head to the polls in November, topping the 11.2 million who voted in 2012, but that Hispanic
millennials who are driving growth in the population of
Hispanic eligible voterswill keep turnout low. A majority of Hispanics, 52 percent, are too young to vote or are not
U.S. citizens.
The findings come from an analysis of Census Bureau data
reviewed by the respected Pew Research Center.
Only 48 percent of eligible Hispanic voters cast a ballot
in 2012, compared to 64 percent of white voters and 67 percent of black eligible voters. That figure was even less for
eligible Hispanic millennial voters, with only 38 percent
casting a ballot in 2012, the report found.
Mark Lopez, Pews director of Hispanic research, said the
low turnout is largely driven by geography. He said more
than half of the nations eligible Hispanic voters, about 52
percent, are in California, Texas and New York none of
which are battleground states that can sway an election.
Hispanic voters in these states wont get as much attention, wont see as many campaign ads, as those in the battleground states of Florida, Nevada and Colorado, said
Lopez, who noted that Hispanics comprise 14 percent of all
voters in each of those states.
In other potential competitive states in the presidential
race, including Virginia, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin,
Hispanic voters make up less than five percent of all voters. Thats also true in the early voting and influential
states of Iowa (2.9 percent) and New Hampshire (2.1 percent), where Hispanic voters represent less than three percent of all voters.
In its focus on young voters, the report found that
Hispanic millennials register to vote at lower rates than
other millennials. It noted that 50 percent of Hispanic millennial eligible voters said they were registered to vote in
2012, compared with 61 percent among white millennials
and 64 percent among black millennials.
The low turnout, said Lopez, could represent an opportunity for a group or candidate who can target these voters
with a registration drive.
Many candidates recognize this potential and have seized
on it. Republican presidential candidate Marco Rubios
campaign released an ad on YouTube Tuesday directed at all
millennials. The ad features several young people talking
about their support for the 44-year-old Florida senator, who
speaks often about the need for a new generation of leadership in Washington.
Voter turnout among all Hispanics has been historically
low. In 2012, a record 11.2 million Hispanics voted, but
12.1 million did not vote.

Sen. Ted Cruz dons face paint in


appeal to hunters, gun owners
By Michael Biesecker
and Will Weissert
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Its an image football fans in Iowa are likely to see this
weekend: Ted Cruz, his face smeared
with black greasepaint, sitting in a
Louisiana duck blind with a borrowed
shotgun.
His Republican presidential campaign said Tuesday its spending
$700,000 to air a gun-friendly ad during the NFL conference championship
games.
Cruz has made the defense of Second
Amendment rights a cornerstone of his
presidential campaign, touting his
past legal work fighting against gun
control laws. But records suggest the
45-year-old politicians passion for
the issue emerged relatively recently
in his life, coinciding with his ascent
in Republican circles in Texas.
Cruz was in Louisiana last week to

film a campaign video with Phil


Robertson, the gray-bearded patriarch
of reality TVs Duck Dynasty clan.
The junior senator from Texas, clad in
camouflaged overalls, is shown
squeezing off a couple of rounds toward
the gray sky. It was not clear whether
the candidate struck any ducks.
Looking into the camera, Robertson
says his selection criteria for endorsing a candidate include would they
kill a duck, put em in a pot and make
em a good duck gumbo. He then tells
Cruz, Youre one of us, my man.
In his three years in the U.S. Senate,
Cruzs voting record has earned an A+
rating from the National Rifle
Association. Fiery criticism of
President Barack Obamas efforts to
tighten background checks for gun
purchases is a staple of Cruz stump
speeches: The candidate quipped that
back in Texas the term gun control
means that you hit what youre aiming at.

In an autobiography published last


year, Cruz recounts how after he moved
to Austin in 2003 to serve as the
states appointed solicitor general, he
became concerned about leaving his
wife, Heidi, at home alone while he
traveled. The couple had previously
lived in Washington, where each had
jobs in the administration of President
George W. Bush.
Worried that an intruder might come
through the window, I placed a hatchet
beneath our bed, and started to tell her
to grab the hatchet if anything happened, wrote Cruz. As I was saying
this, it struck me ... this was stupid.
Heidi is 5-foot-2. The last thing I
wanted was for my beautiful, petite
wife to be trying to swing a hatchet at
a large, menacing robber coming
through the window.
The next day, Cruz recounts, he
bought her a Smith & Wesson .357
Magnum revolver to keep in the bedside table.

Clash on immigration
heads to Supreme Court
By Mark Sherman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON The Supreme


Court stepped into a boiling political
dispute over immigration Tuesday, setting up a likely decision in the middle
of a presidential campaign marked by
harsh rhetoric about immigrants.
The justices agreed to review
whether President Barack Obama, acting without congressional approval,
has the power to shield from deportation up to 5 million immigrants living
in the U.S. illegally and make them
eligible to work without fear of being
rounded up.
Underscoring the political dimension, the case will be argued in April
and decided by late June, about a month
before both political parties gather for
their nominating conventions.
If Obama prevails against opponents led by Republican governors,
there would be roughly seven months
left in his presidency to implement
plans that would affect the parents of
U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents, as well as some people who
arrived in the United States before they
turned 16.
We are confident that the policies
will be upheld as lawful, White House
spokeswoman Brandi Hoffine said
after the courts announcement
Tuesday.
At issue is the Deferred Action for
Parents of Americans program, which
Obama said in late 2014 would allow
people who have been in the United
States more than five years and who
have children who are in the country

IRS again warns of phone
scams as filing season opens
WASHINGTON The IRS says taxpayer losses from
phone scammers impersonating agency tax collectors have
hit $26.5 million over the past couple of years and its again
warning people to just hang up on anyone claiming theyre
from the agency and demanding immediate payment.
The IRS has received reports of about 900,000 scammer
contacts since October 2013 and says more than 5,000 victims have collectively paid over $26.5 million as a result.
The callers fraudulently claim to be IRS officials and demand
that taxpayers immediately send them payment.
The agency has responded with public service announcements reminding people that the IRS sends letters rather
than calling taxpayers.
Meanwhile, tax filing season opened Tuesday, and the IRS
says its systems are running smoothly.

High court rejects new


challenge to Obama health overhaul

REUTERS

A woman chants as immigrants and community leaders rally in front of the U.S.
Supreme Court to mark the one-year anniversary of President Barack Obamas
executive orders on immigration in Washington,D.C.
legally to come out of the shadows
and get right with the law. He also
announced the expansion of a program
that affects people who came here illegally as children.
That earlier program, Deferred
Action for Childhood Arrivals, is not
being challenged and has resulted in
more than 720,000 young immigrants
being granted permission to live and
work in the United States.
When he announced the measures 14
months ago, Obama said he was acting

under his own authority because


Congress had failed to overhaul the
immigration system. The Senate did
pass legislation on a bipartisan vote,
but House Republicans refused to put
the matter to a vote.
Texas quickly led a legal challenge
to Obamas program on behalf of 26
states and has won every round in court
so far. Most recently, in November,
the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals
ruled in favor of the states, prompting
the appeal to the Supreme Court.

WASHINGTON The Supreme Court has rejected another


challenge to President Barack Obamas health care overhaul.
The justices on Tuesday left in place lower court rulings
that dismissed a lawsuit against the national health care law.
The suit argues that the law violates the provision of the
Constitution that requires tax-raising bills to originate in
the House of Representatives.
The court has twice turned back major challenges to the
law, in opinions written by Chief Justice John Roberts in
2012 and in June. The court also has allowed family-owned
businesses with religious objections to opt out of paying
for contraceptives for women covered under their health
plans. The Pacific Legal Foundation backed the latest lawsuit, filed on behalf of small-business owner Matt Sissel.

Justices to weigh limits on insider trading cases


WASHINGTON The Supreme Court is signaling that it
could make insider trading cases harder to prosecute nationwide, dealing another blow to federal prosecutors.
The justices on Tuesday said they would hear the appeal of
an Illinois man who is serving a three-year prison term after
being convicted of trading on leaked inside information.
The court decided to take on the appeal of Bassam Yacoub
Salman over the opposition of the Justice Department and a
little more than three months after the justices sided against
federal prosecutors who wanted to reinstate similar convictions in New York against two high-profile hedge fund managers.

U.N. report: Iraqi


civilians dying at
staggering rate
By Susannah George
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BAGHDAD Iraq witnessed a


sharp increase in civilian deaths
following the fall of large swaths
of territory to the Islamic State
group in the summer of 2014. Now
despite a string of recent battlefield losses for IS, civilians in Iraq
continue to die at a staggering
rate, according to a new United
Nations report.
At least 18,802 civilians were
killed and another 36,245 were
wounded in Iraq between the start
of 2014 and Oct. 31 of last year,
according to the U. N. report
released Tuesday. In just one sixmonth period between May and
October last year, more than
10,000 civilians were killed.
Despite their steady losses to
pro-government forces,
the
scourge of ISIL continues to kill,
maim and displace Iraqi civilians
in the thousands and to cause
untold suffering, U.N. envoy Jan

Kubis said in a statement, using an


alternative acronym for the
extremist group.
The numbers are nowhere near
the death tolls recorded during
Iraqs bloody civil war. In 2006
alone more than 34,000 civilians
were killed, according to U. N.
data.
The following year the Iraqi
government refused to provide the
U.N. with death toll statistics,
stating that the government wanted to prevent the data from painting a negative image of the country. But civilian casualties since
the rise of IS in Iraq are considerably higher than the preceding
years of relative stability. In
2011, the number of civilian
deaths due to violence was at its
lowest since the civil war, with
fewer than 2,800 killed.
U.N. human rights chief Zeid
Raad al-Hussein said the civilian
death toll may actually be considerably higher.
Even the obscene casualty fig-

ures fail to accurately reflect exactly how terribly civilians are suffering in Iraq, he said in a statement.
The U.N. report also documented
a wide range of human rights abuses, including the IS groups conscription of some 3,500 people
into slavery. Many of those are
women and children from the
Yazidi religious minority who
were taken hostage in the summer
of 2014 and forced into sexual
slavery.

Iran moves assets, awaits benefits as sanctions are lifted


By Nasser Karimi
and Jon Gambrell
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

TEHRAN, Iran Iran successfully transferred some of the billions of dollars worth of frozen
overseas assets following the
implementation of the nuclear deal
with world powers, the head of the
countrys central bank said
Tuesday. But ordinary Iranians are
still waiting to see how their daily
lives will improve and how fast
Iranian companies will gain
access to financial markets worldwide.
Credit cards still dont work in
the Islamic Republic and its ATM
machines remain separated from

the rest of the world. That is not


likely to change soon as many of
the worlds major financial services companies operate in the
United States.
Iranian state television quoted
Valiollah Seif, the head of Irans
central bank, as saying that
Tehran transferred funds from
banks in Japan and South Korea to
other banks in Germany and the
United Arab Emirates.
He did not say how much money
was involved in the transfers,
though he said the nuclear deal
would give Tehran access to $32
billion in overseas assets and
lower international currency transactions for the country by 15 percent.

The Mideast commercial hub of


Dubai would be the most likely
place in the seven-state Emirates
federation for Iran to move its
funds. The port city is home to a
large Iranian expatriate community and has a long trading history
with nearby Iran.
Emirates NBD, the largest bank
in Dubai, declined to tell the
Associated Press whether it was
doing business with Iran now that
nuclear-related sanctions have
been lifted, citing a policy of confidentiality regarding potential or
existing customers. However, it
said various regulatory authorities have released guidance since
the deal was implemented on
Saturday.

dren were abducted from Iraqs second largest city, Mosul, for religious and military training. A
number of IS child soldiers were
killed by the extremists when they
tried to flee fighting in the western Anbar province, it said.
ISIL in particular has used the
most gruesome methods to execute people by running bulldozers
over them, by burning them alive.
In one case, people were put in a
cage and the cage was put into the
water, Ravina Shamdasani, a
U. N. spokeswoman told the

Associated Press in Geneva.


I think this kind of violence
will affect our society for the long
term, said veteran Iraqi human
rights activist Hana Adwar. The
culture of violence is rooted in Iraq
now, its not something thats
easy to combat.
The U.N. report called the civilian death toll in Iraq staggering.
It also detailed the various methods the IS group has employed to
kill its enemies, including public
beheadings and throwing them off
buildings.

Govt report: Budget deficit


to rise to $544B this year

Around the nation

WASHINGTON A government
report released Tuesday estimates
that this years budget deficit will
rise to $544 billion, an increase
over prior estimates that can be
attributed largely to tax cuts and
spending increases passed by
Congress last month.
The
estimate
from
the
Congressional Budget Office also
sees the economy growing at a
slower pace this year than it predicted just a few months ago. It
projects the economic growth will
slow to 2.7 percent this year; it
foresaw 3. 0 percent growth in
2016 in last summers prediction.
Over the coming decade, CBO
predicts deficits totaling $9.4 tril-

lion. Thats up $1.5 trillion from


its August estimate, with much of
the increase mostly due to last
months tax legislation, which
permanently extended several tax
cuts that Congress had typically
renewed temporarily.
Last years deficit registered
$439 billion, the lowest of
President Barack Obamas term in
office.
The deficit increase to $544 billion is due to several factors, CBO
said, particularly the retroactive
extension of tax cuts that had
expired at the beginning of last
year and additional spending for
the Pentagon and domestic agencies thats a result of last years
budget deal.

All-American food?

California and the keys to the 2016 election


By Melissa R. Michelson

any people are focused on


Republican candidates
Donald Trump and Ted
Cruz, along with the Iowa and New
Hampshire primaries, but the elections of 2016 are much bigger than
that. Voter turnout, voter suppression, Californias role in the House,
Senate and presidential elections,
digital mobilization strategies and
other factors loom in the coming
year. Here are the six biggest issues
for the upcoming elections.
1). California still matters.
Theres no guarantee the presidential
nominee will be chosen by
Californias primary June 7. Thanks
to Citizens United and the Super
PACs, we could have a repeat of
2008 for either political party, especially for the Republicans, with the
nomination decision coming down
to those last primary elections.
There will be heated battles in
California for statewide offices,
especially the U.S. Senate seat
opening up. If you live in
California, your vote still matters, a
lot. And thats not even taking into
consideration any hot ballot proposition decisions that might qualify
by then.
2). Turnout, not persuasion.
Getting out the vote and mobilizing
new voters was key to Obamas victory. It will likely be the key in
2016. Non-likely voters and new
voters will be game changers. If
Republicans can significantly
increase turnout of their core support
group (white men), that could counteract mobilization efforts among
women and people of color by the
Democrats. As new voters join the
active electorate, predicted winners
and losers based on outdated models
of likely voters could mean more
surprises.
3). The power of the Latino vote.

The New York


Times recently
posted a story,
Whatever
Happened to
Latino Political
Power? questioning the impact of
the Latino vote
and the resurgence
of the anti-immigrant vote as evidenced by Trumps surge in the
polls. Compared with Black Lives
Matter protesters, Latinos seems
passive, the story noted. This is far
from the truth. Latinos are key to
margins of victory in swing states
like Nevada, Texas and North
Carolina. Both sides are trying harder than ever to woo Latino support,
e.g. with endorsements and staffing
decisions. One or both nominees
may choose a Hispanic running mate
(or nominee), which could provide a
real-world test of theories of the
power of shared ethnicity to drive
voter turnout and vote choice.
4). State polls matter. National
polls and national match-up polls
dont matter (although they are fun
fodder for debate); nominations and
Electoral College support decisions
are made at the statewide level. What
do state polls, and historical outcomes for early winners, tell us
about who is likely to become the
nominee? Such analysis also needs
to take into account the quality of
various polls; there are quite a few
bad polls out there. Paying attention
to the source and methodology of
published polls is key to truly understanding who has what level of support, and who might really turn out
to be our next president.
5). Voter suppression, Take 2.
Voter ID laws, making IDs harder to
get (Alabama closed DMV offices in
African-American neighborhoods),
Wisconsin enacted even stricter laws
to obtain an ID, and both Texas and
North Carolina have been sued by

Guest
perspective
the federal government, limiting
voter hours and making it harder to
vote. Will this suppress the vote? Or
will those who feel threatened fight
back? In 2012, community organizations and nonprofit groups successfully organized to counteract the
effect of voter suppression efforts,
helping voters whose rights to vote
were threatened to obtain needed
documents and participate. In 2016,
will the new round of voter suppression efforts successfully depress
turnout among targeted communities, or will we see a repeat of 2012?
6). New toys and old reliable ones.
Voter mobilization used to be all
about pounding the pavement and
driving individuals to the polls.
Then, the rise of television, and
especially direct mail, moved campaigns to mass communication
efforts. The last few cycles have
seen a return to the old style, driven
by political science research that
demonstrates that personal mobilizing is more effective, if more expensive. At the same time, folks are
continuing to try to use new tools
like Facebook, text messages,
WhatsApp, and other online tools,
to reach out to voters and mobilize
their support. This year promises to
see a mix of both old and new, as
campaigns aim to hit the sweet spot
of the ideal method of maximizing
support from different communities.

of political science at Menlo College

he makers of processed foods have chosen,


time and again, to double down on their
efforts to dominate the American diet, gambling that consumers wont gure them out. Michael
Moss, Salt, Sugar, Fat.
In the U.S. Department of Agricultures 2015 Dietary
Guidelines for Americans, we are again offered a list of recommendations for healthier eating. Its interesting how
every ve years when our government comes out with its
improved list, that in all the fuss about how much of this
or that to eat, there is no mention of how important it is to
eat food that isnt tainted by some of 20,000 possible
chemicals, affected by GMOs, or greatly rened or altered
by an industry that is singularly out to sell as much of
their product as possible.
As time goes by, our food
becomes more and more
adulterated. We can guide
our choices of food according to the recommendations
of the USDA and yet we can
be ingesting myriad chemicals and other additives
many that the industry has
been using in their products
for years. Many have never
been tested for safety by the
Food and Drug
Administration considered GRAS generally recognized as safe. From the rening of our so many years
ago to the proliferation of genetically modied foods
today, the changes in our food have been only for the convenience and prots of the industry.
Doesnt it make sense that the more we stray from the
pure and natural the more risk we are taking with our
health? What makes the industry, the USDA, and FDA
think they can overlook that fact without causing problems? Marian Nestle, my favorite nutrition guru and author
of many informative books about nutrition, told the committee that the guidelines should be more explicit about
what foods to avoid. For example, they should recommend
less processed or red meat, rather than fewer proteins to
reduce saturated fat, since plenty of proteins are low in saturated fat.
Also, as far as meat is concerned, the San Francisco
Chronicle informed us that notably not found on the
guidelines were recommendations to reduce the consumption of meat and other animal proteins for sustainability
reasons, which the advisory panel recommended to be
included last year. However, they were removed in the nal
version amid an outcry from the meat industry.
Of course, the Sugar Association is not happy about the
new sugar recommendations which tell us to limit sugar
intake to 10 percent of daily calories. For a 2,000 calorie
diet, that means no more than 200 calories of added sugar
or 4 tablespoons a day. Thats a little over two 12-ounce
sodas. And then we see ads on TV for such things as milk
tempting the viewer with scads of sweetened foods and
offer milk as a delicious accompaniment. Pillsbury products that are basically white our and sugar are featured as a
deliciously wonderful family fare hoping to stuff such
products down the throats of the uninformed and/or indifferent.
How many people, even if they are inclined to do so,
have time to count the calories of sugar that they consume? How many have the time or inclination to search
out the products that are most free of additives, etc. and/or
cook from scratch at a time when its more important than
ever to eat food that is whole and natural? The industry,
with the help of the USDA and FDA, has adulterated our
food to the point that if we want to eat for health we have
to go to a lot of trouble and expense to nd organic foods
and become educated about nutrition and the whole complicated issue.
If we are honest, we realize that most of what we eat has
been turned into a conglomeration of ingredients and/or
processes that are a threat to the well-being of all of us.
And the corporate interests are busy using their inuence
to be sure that the guidelines dont interfere with their
prots. They take comfort in the fact that the great majority of Americans will pay little heed to the USDA Dietary
Guidelines and continue to stuff themselves with manufactured and adulterated products that compromise health. It
can be summed up in one sentence. Stay away, as much as
possible, from products that have been manipulated by the
industry.
If youd like to read a very interesting and unusual book

Twitter disruption silences


swaths of U.S., Europe for hours
Some Twitter users had to do without early
Tuesday after sporadic outages knocked the
social media site offline in the U.S. and
Europe.
It was unclear how widespread the outages
were, but by mid-morning on the East
Coast, desktop and mobile versions of
Twitter appeared to be working. And the
company tweeted early in the afternoon that
the issue had been resolved.
Twitter Inc., which has 320 million active
users, said on its website that the six-hourlong disruption was related to a change in an
internal code, which the company subsequently reversed, fixing the issue.
Earlier in the day, users said the service
was not accessible on desktop computers.
Twitters blog posts, corporate info and
most other pages on the Twitter.com website were also inaccessible, displaying the

There were complaints of users receiving a

NEW YORK U.S. stocks struggled


through a turbulent day of trading
Tuesday and eked out small gains, led
by utility and consumer stocks. The
price of crude oil continued to fall, and
energy and mining stocks tumbled.
Stocks in Asia and Europe had rallied
earlier in the day as investors were satisfied with Chinas fourth-quarter economic growth. The Dow Jones industrial average rose as much as 183 points
in the first minutes of trading Tuesday.
The gains faded in the afternoon before
a late spurt of buying in the last half
hour sent indexes mostly higher.
The Dow Jones industrial average
rose 27.94 points, or 0.2 percent, to
16,016.02. The Standard & Poors 500

JC Penney to start

NEW YORK J. C. Penney will sell
refrigerators, washing machines and other
appliances at some of its stores for the first

The move, announced Tuesday, comes as
many department stores are under pressure

J.C. Penney says many of its customers

Netflix surged aftermarket as the companys net income surpassed analyst

as Elevate Capital, which offers credit

Netflix impresses with robust


fourth quarter overseas growth
By Michael Liedtke
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO As its U. S. subs cri b er g ro wt h t ap ers o ff, Net fl i x s


Internet video service is setting out to
conquer the rest of the world in an audacious expansion likely to sway the companys stock and the prices it pays for TV
shows and movies.
The stakes riding on Netflixs next act
came into sharper focus Tuesday with the
release of the companys fourth-quarter
report.
Netflix added 1. 56 million U. S. subscribers from October through December,
s l i g h t l y b el o w wh at man ag emen t h ad
predicted.
It marked the second-straight quarter
that Netflixs subscriber gains in the

U. S. have disappointed.
But international growth topped the
companys projections to give Netflix
nearly 75 million worldwide subscribers
through December.
Netflix Inc. s fourth-quarter earnings
also exceeded analyst forecasts, helping
to lift the companys stock by more than
6 percent in extended trading.
The Los Gatos company expects to add
another 4. 4 million international subscribers during the opening three months
of this year compared with a projected
gain of 1. 75 million in the U. S.
The shares climbed $7. 26 to $115. 15
in extended trading, in the same range
where it stood six months ago. Over the
past three years, though, Netflixs stock
has surged to an eight-fold increase in
value.

Insurance customers begin year with delays


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Thousands of health insurance consumers


around the country have started the new year
dealing with missing ID cards, billing errors
and other problems tied to an enrollment
surge at the end of 2015.
Brokers and insurers in several states told
The Associated Press that theyve been inundated with complaints about these issues from
customers with individual plans and those
with coverage through small businesses.
Insurance provider Health Care Service Corp.,
for instance, has been dealing with delays for
around 10,000 companies, while billing

errors caused bank overdrafts for 3,200 individual customers of a North Carolina insurer.
These delays mean that some customers
may have to pay for care up front or wait for
their insurance cards to arrive before scheduling a doctors appointment, even though
many have technically been covered since
Jan. 1.
Ive been in the health insurance business
20 plus years, and Ive never seen anything
like this, said Dallas-based broker Tanya
Boyd, who estimates that hundreds of customers have complained about delays in
receiving their insurance cards or a confirmation of coverage.

28-year-old single-game scoring record
Wednesday Jan. 20, 2016

Woodside shuts out Burlingame, stays unbeaten


injuries coming in (to the season).
This was a game that easily could have seen
Woodside score four or five times. The
Wildcats did an exceptional job of possessing
the ball early. Their passing triangles were
perfectly set up, they switched the side of the
field with ease and they knocked the ball
around effortlessly.
It was just in the final attacking third that
Woodside failed to connect.
In the fifth minute, Alex Augulis whipped a
corner kick into the Burlingame goal box.
Daisy Jimenez headed the ball toward the left
post, but Burlingames Jayna Dunning was
there to clear the ball off the line. The ball

pinballed around for a few moments before it


was finally cleared.
The Wildcats came up short again in the
10th minute when senior striker Jillienne
Aguilera chased down a perfect pass down the
line from Jimenez. Aguilera ran onto the ball,
beat her defender, turned the corner and just
had the goalkeeper to beat.
Burlingames Malia Smith cut down the
angle and Aguilera tried to beat her to the near
post. Her shot hit off the post and ricocheted
between Smiths legs. Aguilera couldnt latch
onto the rebound and the ball was cleared.

Yu Darvish denies
gambling in wake
of brothers arrest

By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Two quick second-half strikes proved to be


the difference as the Woodside girls soccer
team shut out visiting Burlingame Tuesday
afternoon.
The 2-0 win keeps the three-time defending
Peninsula Athletic League Bay Division
champion Wildcats undefeated in league play
this year at 5-0 and 7-0-2 overall.
Despite the win, Woodside coach Jose
Navarrete was less than pleased with his
teams performance.

I thought [Burlingame] played harder than


we did. We got outworked, Navarrete said.
The praise Navarrete gave Burlingame (2-21 PAL Bay, 7-3-1 overall) is high praise,
indeed, considering the condition of the
Panthers. After an encouraging start to the
season, injuries have taken a toll. They had
only a couple substitutes available Tuesday.
They competed very well, given the situation, said Burlingame coach Philip DeRosa,
adding his team is missing four starters two
out for the season.

pitcher Yu Darvish said he is not and has never
been involved in gambling activities amid a
Major League Baseball investigation after the
arrest of his younger brother in Japan.
Darvish issued a statement through his
agent Tuesday that says he understands
MLB must conduct an
investigation.
I am certain that they
will find that I had no
involvement in this matter whatsoever, Darvish
said in the statement
through his representatives at the Wasserman
Media Group.
Yu Darvish
Sho Darvish was
arrested in October in Japan for allegedly
running an illegal gambling ring that
reportedly took about 1,850 bets on MLB
games as well as professional baseball
games in Japan. The arrest came after an
investigation of more than a year.
It was unclear if any bets were taken on
games involving the Rangers.
The Japan Times said Osaka police have
not accused Yu Darvish of any wrongdoing.
MLB spokesman Michael Teevan told the
Japan Times in an email that the league is
aware of situation and looking into it per
standard protocols.
I will not comment on this matter again
out of respect for Major League Baseballs
investigation and I am focused on preparing for the upcoming season, Yu Darvish
said.
Darvish missed all of last season after
having ligament replacement surgery in his
right arm during spring training. The 29year-old Darvish is not expected to be ready
for the start of the season, but could be back
sometime in May.

Serra took sole possession of second


place in the West Catholic Athletic League
with a 60-49 win over Mitty Tuesday night
at Morton Family Gymnasium.
Jeremiah Testa scored a team-high 23 points,
despite totaling just three points in the rst
half. The senior guard then exploded for 20
points in the second half, with a 3-pointer sealing the win with 1:17 remaining in regulation.
Amid a one-possession game with Serra
leading 52-49, Testa red his game-clinching 3 out of the corner. The ball caught the
front of the iron then bounced up and off the
backboard before rattling through the cylinder. And as the shot fell, the usually evenkeel Testa rejoiced with an animated stpump, sensing the key victory was at hand.
I was sure I missed it, but I guess it had a
heavens roll, I guess, Testa said.
For the Padres (4-1 in WCAL, 12-3 overall)
the test was simple stop the reigning WCAL
Player of the Year, Mitty center Ben Kone.
I thought we did a great job on him,
Serra head coach Chuck Rapp said. We got a
lot of help double- and triple-teaming him.
It takes a village to defend a post.
Serras defense swarmed to contain Kone
from the outset. The senior nished with a
modest 12 points and a game-high seven
rebounds. But Serras over-attentiveness
opened the door for superb rst-half showing from Mitty forward Nick LaBruna.
LaBruna scored a game-high 24 points
after owning the rst quarter. The 6-5 senior
scored 12 points in the opening eight minutes, staking Mitty (3-2, 8-7) to an 18-15
heading into the second quarter.
[LaBruna] is good, but I didnt know he
as that good, Testa said. I have to give
him credit. He was the biggest part of the
Mitty offense today.

San Jose Sharks celebrate 25th anniversary


By Josh Dubow
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN JOSE The San Jose Sharks have


come a long way from their days at the rundown Cow Palace when their signature teal
jerseys seemed to be a bigger attraction
than the product on the ice.
The Sharks have grown in their 25 years
into one of the more successful non-traditional NHL market franchises by becoming
a consistent winner on the ice and developing the game at the grassroots level.
As they celebrated their 25th anniversary

Tuesday night with current players, alumni and


fans, there was only one
glaring thing missing.
Its a long time, great
time, great memories,
owner Hasso Plattner
said. No Stanley Cup
yet.
The Sharks have come

close to the ultimate
prize, with three trips to the conference
finals and 10 straight playoff berths before
missing the postseason last year.

After a few shaky stretches, San Jose is


currently tied for second place in the Pacific
Division with strong hopes of making it
back to the playoffs this season.
The team is playing relatively well,
Plattner said. Were hanging in in the
position. They have to show it now in the
remaining 40 games. I think we have all the
abilities, and they have to do it.

Boddie breaks SSFs single-game scoring record


By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Welcome to the South City record books,


Amir Boddie.
The junior went off last Friday at Jefferson,
totaling a game-high 45 points to break the
South City boys basketball single-game
scoring record. The previous record of 44
points, set by Lou Lucca in 1988, stood for
28 years.
The scary part is Boddie may just be getting
warmed up. Playing his first full year of varsity basketball, the 5-10 guard had twice
eclipsed the 30-point plateau prior to the
record outburst, with his previous career-high
32 points coming Dec. 4 against Balboa.
I always set the bar high for myself,
Boddie said. When I [score] 20, I want to get
30. When I get 30, I want to get 40. Now Ive
got 40, so I want to get 50. If it happens it
happens.
While Boddies shooting exploits were part
of a losing effort Jefferson mounted a second-half comeback to win 84-80 the shot
that clinched the record was a breathtaking 3pointer. With the Warriors trailing by 5,
Boddie swished a 45-footer with nine seconds
remaining in regulation.
Boddie sank six 3-pointers in the game,
shooting 6 of 14 from beyond the arc. He
shot 54 percent (15 for 28) from the field and
went 9 of 12 from the free-throw line.
Towards the end of the game, I missed two
shots I should have made, Boddie said. But
other than that I was pretty happy about my
performance.
The performance tops a South City legend
in Lucca at the top of the single-game leaderboard; but Lucca still owns plenty of Warriors
basketball records.
A baseball standout that went on to play 16

TERRY BERNAL/DAILY JOURNAL

South City junior guard Amir Boddie scored


a program record 45 points last Friday in a
84-80 loss at Jefferson, eclipsing Lou Luccas
28-year-old record of 44.
professional seasons on the diamond, including 11 seasons at the Triple-A level, Lucca
twice earned South Citys baseball player of
the year in 1987 and 88, and also captured
the schools basketball player of the year
award in 88.
Lucca still owns single-game records with
16 field goals and seven 3-pointers. He is
also the Warriors single-season scoring
leader with 710 points and 29.6 points per
game. He also ranks fourth among the programs all-time scoring leaders with 994

points from 1986-88.


In games it was just so easy for me, Lucca
said, who at 5-10 is the same height as
Boddie. I was big-bodied but I was always
guarded by these skinny 140-pound kids. And
if they came out on me, I could drive on them
and get a foul; and if they backed off me, I
could shoot.
Having grown up on the baseball diamonds
of South San Franciscos Orange Park, Lucca
also honed his shooting skills there prior to
his senior year. The 1988 season was a gamechanger for Lucca, as it was the year high
schools instituted a 3-point line. And the new
format inspired him to close out the court at
Orange Park nearly every night.
One day I went to Orange Park and just
started shooting NBA 3s, Lucca said.
Orange Park made me a baseball player and a
basketball player.
Nearly 30 years removed from Luccas legacy, Boddie said he had never heard of Lucca
until he was informed Tuesday of the recordbreaking feat.
Born in San Francisco, Boddie didnt move
to South San Francisco until he was in seventh-grade. And while he is the first member
of a basketball-intensive family to make his
mark in South San Francisco, both his grandfather and father were great prep players in
San Francisco.
Boddies father Jermaine holds several basketball records at Balboa High School, where
the 40-point plateau was commonplace
throughout his senior season. According to
Boddie, his father averaged 42 points per
game his senior year. So, Boddie got some
interesting words of encouragement after
Fridays 45-point showing.
He said I did good, Boddie said. But he
said I can do that every night if I put work
into it.

Reds retiring Roses No. 14 SERRA


By Dan Sewell
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CINCINNATI Pete Rose is


getting a hall of fame induction
in the Cincinnati Reds team hall
during a weekend of honors this
summer in his hometown that
will include retiring his No. 14.
The
Reds
announcement
Tuesday came after MLB commissioner Rob Manfred rejected
Roses application for reinstatement to baseball last month.
Manfred concluded that baseballs
career hits leader hasnt shown evidence of a reconfigured life and
continued to gamble, even while
seeking to end the lifetime ban
imposed in 1989 for betting on
numerous Reds games while playing
for and managing the team.
Reds chief executive Bob
Castellini said Manfred approved the
plans to honor the 74-year-old Rose.
The June 24-26 events also will feature a 40-year reunion of the 1976
world champion Reds, on-field ceremonies and a team hall of fame banquet in which Rose will be awarded
the red sports coat its members wear.
This is an honor, that you cant
just believe how you feel, Rose said
at a news conference, noting that he
grew up a Reds fan and was born a
few miles from the Great American
Ball Park where he will be honored.
He broke into baseball as a Red,
played most of his career with them,

and also managed the team.


The National
Baseball Hall of
Fame in 1991
adopted a rule
that keeps anyone on the permanently ineligible list off the
Pete Rose
ballot. Manfred
said last month that his decision to
continue the MLB ban was separate from any determination on
National Hall eligibility. He said
while Rose remains banned from
working for any major league team
or minor league affiliate, he could
make ceremonial appearances with
the commissioners approval.
Pete was told that in the immediate future, he probably is not
going to be able to look in terms
of Cooperstown, Castellini said
Tuesday. And we certainly wanted

vacuum. The commissioner gave
us permission to do that; we couldnt be more pleased that it is now.
Nows the time.
An MLB spokesman confirmed
that the Reds had submitted ceremonial plans that were approved.
Rose offered his thanks to
Manfred, while adding that he still
holds out hope for some day joining the National Hall.
I havent given up on
Cooperstown. Im not the type

whos going to give up on anything, he said. But this is fine,


Im happy ... Im not going to sit
here and say its the second-best
thing, cause its not ... Im from
Cincinnati. This is the first big
thing.
Rose has rejoined his teammates
from the 1975-76 world champions
in recent years in on-field reunions
and other ceremonies in Cincinnati.
Castellini said there are plans,
although the timetable is uncertain,
of adding a Rose statue to those of
all-time Reds greats outside Great
American Ball Park. His Big Red
Machine teammates Johnny
Bench, Joe Morgan and Tony Perez
already have statues.
Rose is joining those three
National Hall of Famers in the 85strong Reds hall that includes the
late manager Sparky Anderson and
much of the rest of the 75-76 team.
Hes the last of the regular starting
eight fielders that also had David
Concepcion, George Foster, Cesar
Geronimo and Ken Griffey Sr. named
to the Reds hall.
Ken Griffey Jr., who will join
the National Hall this summer,
was in the clubs last induction
class in 2014.
Rick Walls, executive director of
the Reds Hall of Fame & Museum,
said the halls board amended
bylaws to allow Roses eligibility
and voted to make Rose the only
2016 inductee.

But Serra made a statement to
open the second quarter, seizing the
lead with a quick ve-point outburst. Padres guard Miles Todzo
opened the quarter with a 3-pointer
to tie it. Then the full-court press
struck
as
forward
Jake
Killingsworth produced a steal at
midcourt and took it to the cylinder
for a picturesque dunk, giving the
Padres a 20-18 lead.
Mitty quickly called a timeout to
regroup, and reemerged by playing
the tempo game. The Monarchs,
after climbing back in front 22-20,
were successful in bringing the
offensive free-for-all to a grinding
halt as neither team score for nearly
three minutes.
I think its just two teams that
defend well and pride themselves on
defense, Rapp said.
Killingsworth nally broke the
dry spell with a bucket to tie it 2222. But Mitty maintained the edge,
taking leads of 25-22, 26-24 and
28-26. But then, with under a
minute remaining in the half, the
lead changed for the eighth time in
the half when Todzo pulled up from
the top of the arc to drill another 3,
giving the Padres a 29-28 edge.
It would prove the last lead
change of the game, as Serra maintained its edge throughout the second half.

It was a hard-fought game, Serra


point guard Lee Jones said. Every
time we play Mitty, they play their
hardest and we do too. So it makes
for a good game.
The Padres opened the second half
on a 15-4 run, during which Jones
made one of the games grittiest
plays. Having a long history with
Kone a Foster City resident who
played with Jones at Bowditch
Middle School the 5-10 Jones
attempted to take on the 6-8 Kone
with a drive through trafc to the
hoop. The play did not end well for
Jones, who was rejected hard by
Kone.
With Serra taking the ensuing
inbound, however, the ball went
right to Jones, who stubbornly
drove right back to the hoop. This
time taking on a different Mitty
defender, Jones pulled up in the
paint and redeemed himself with a
bucket. The senior went on to score
10 points in the game.
I did that on purpose, Jones
said. [Kone] gave me a look when
I was on the oor. So I knew I had to
do something. I had to go
score.
The Padres opened up a 44-32 lead
midway through the third quarter,
but Mitty closed to within a point
50-49 with 2:25 left in the game
with LaBruna drawing a foul a baseline drive for a three-point play. But
the Monarchs missed their chance
to take the lead by missing a free
throw on the front end of a 1-and-1.
Serra responded by closing out
the game on a 10-0 run.

Serena, Sharapova into 3rd round at Aussie Open


By John Pye
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MELBOURNE, Australia Serena


Williams has had so much success for such a
long time that even in a second-round match
she can set a record at the seasons first
Grand Slam event.
The six-time and defending champion
beat No. 90-ranked Hsieh Su-wei 6-1, 6-2
on Wednesday at Rod Laver Arena, an alltime record 79th main draw match at the
Australian Open.
She closed with an ace, her seventh, finishing in precisely an hour.
It all started here this is where I played
my first Grand Slam right on this court and

Serena
Williams

Im still going, its such


an
honor,
said
Williams, who has a 709 win-loss record at
Melbourne Park since
her debut in 1998. I
love it every time I come
here.
She hit 26 winners,
including one around the
post that she thought
may have been a first for

her, at age 34.


My first one I think, she said. I was
like, Yay. Never too late.
She faces a potential quarterfinal match
against Maria Sharapova, which would be a

rematch of the 2015


final.
Sharapova reached the
third round with a 6-2, 61 win over Aliaksandra
Sasnovich in the first
match completed on day
three, when light rain
caused an hour-long delay
getting started on the
Maria
outside courts.
Sharapova
The
fifth-seeded
Sharapova won the 2008 Australian title
and has lost three finals at Melbourne Park.
She dropped two service games in the first
set, including once when serving at 5-1, but
was otherwise consistent except for some

over-hit ground strokes.


To come back here and play my first
match on Rod Laver is always very special
as you always get those first little jitters out
of the way.
Kateryna Bondarenko earned one of her
biggest wins since returning from retirement after having a baby in 2013, beating
two-time major winner and No. 23-seeded
Svetlana Kuznetsova 6-1, 7-5.
The 92nd-ranked Bondarenko is playing
only her second Grand Slam tournament
since returning to the tour in 2014.
Seventh-seeded Kei Nishikori, the 2014
U.S. Open finalist, advanced to the third
round in the mens draw with a 6-3, 7-6 (5),
6-3 win over Austin Krajicek.

SHARKS

more than 4,500 participants is the largest


in the Unities States. The Junior Sharks
youth league also operates 26 teams.
Sharks defender Matt Tennyson was the
first alum from the Junior Sharks to make
the NHL, and his first career goal was a
memorable moment for the team.
I know Mr. Gund dreamed of that moment
happening, said general manager Doug
Wilson, the captain on the first Sharks
team. He wasnt here when it happened,
unfortunately. But thats a vision, and to see
something like that come to fruition is pretty incredible.
The Sharks have enjoyed strong fan support for most of their existence, despite an
increase in empty seats the past two seasons
as frustrations mounted about the lack of
postseason success.
But the Shark Tank still can be one of the
leagues loudest arenas come playoff time.
Its come a long way, theres no doubt
about it, said former captain Owen Nolan,
who joined the team in 1995 and still lives
in the area. When I first got here, I remember laughing a little bit because the fans
would be cheering, and I wouldnt really
know what they were cheering for it wasnt a good play or something. To see them
progress over the years, and they know their
hockey now. Theyve been spoiled with
some great hockey and they know what to
expect from now on. So its great to see the
city and the fans grow like that.

Patrick Marleau, who joined the team as

Saskatchewan, Canada, said he expected to

he came to
California for the first

Having kids now,
theyre a part of it,
Marleau said. My oldest

the Bay Area ever since original owner

out that clanged off the upper right
corner of the goal frame.
While Woodside had all of the
first-half
scoring
chances,
Burlingame evened out possession and started to take control of
the midfield.
The Panthers continued to play
well in the midfield in the second
half, but a couple of defensive
breakdowns on two set pieces
turned out to be the difference.
Just two minutes after halftime,
Aguilera picked up her 18th goal
of the season and 84th of her

deflected off her torso and into the
back of the net to put Woodside up
1-0.
Shes very talented, DeRosa
said of Aguilera. Shes one of the
premiere strikers to come out of
the Peninsula in several years.
Augulis is no slouch either. A
junior, Augulis has had a hand in
many an Aguilera score. Tuesdays
assist was her 10th of the season.
[Augulis] is a pretty big mismatch on the flank, Navarrete
said. We know she can serve a
good ball.
Six minutes later, Woodside doubled its lead. The Wildcats earned a
free kick near the right sideline,
25 yards from goal. Defender
Raquel Krampert stepped up and
curved a cross into the penalty
box. Another defender, Amanda
Steinebel, slipped inside her
defender and headed the ball off the
post and into the net to give the
Wildcats a 2-0 lead.
The Wildcats did not get a lot of
opportunities after that as
Burlingame continued to control

the midfield. Because of that,


Aguilera started to drop deeper and
deeper into her own end to receive
passes, but that blunted her effectiveness as the target player up
top.
I tell her to be patient. If you
drop back so deep, now you have
to beat six [players], Navarrete
said.
The Panthers started to apply
more pressure on the Woodside
defense and goal, getting off five
second-half shots. But none were
especially dangerous. Alysse La
Mond did a good job of bolstering
the defense when she had to drop
back from her midfield position
after an injury to a teammate.
Kelsey Andrews also showed some
flair in the midfield, but the
Panthers were lacking any serious
scoring threat up top.
Despite his teams shortcomings, DeRosa was satisfied with
the way his team played.
I was very pleased with how
hard they played, DeRosa said.
They played their heart out.

The day she does it in a game


will be phenomenal, sophomore
forward Penina Davidson said.
She has made a huge impact on
and off the court. She can catch
everything we pass. Shes just a
big presence on the court.

the Jan. 2 Pac-12 opener, former
Stanford star
and current
Connecticut Sun forward Chiney
Ogwumike who like Anigwe

photo of the two of them on
Twitter.

Anigwe leads the team with


averages of 21.5 points and 9.6
rebounds as Cal looks to snap a
three-game losing streak in
Fridays Pac-12 game at UCLA, a

a National Freshman of the Week
honor on her long list of accomplishments already, to go with a
conference record-tying seven
Pac-12 freshman of the week honors.

Tough one for Cal but this girl


right here is something special!
People will know Kristine Anigwe
very soon, Ogwumike wrote with
a thumbs-up icon.
Sure, Anigwe would love to dunk
in a game before her Cal career is
through. Yet for now, she prefers
reliable layups so she doesnt put
too much added pressure on herself
or hurt the team trying to do too
much.

Mexico probes possible money tie between actress, drug boss


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MEXICO CITY There are indications that drug lord Joaquin El


Chapo Guzman had business dealings with actress Kate del
Castillo, who arranged a meeting
between the drug boss and actor
Sean Penn, Mexicos attorney
general said in an interview published Tuesday.
Arely Gomez told the newspaper
El Universal that officials are
investigating possible money
laundering involving the actress
tequila business. But she said they
dont have legal certainty a
crime was committed.
Del Castillo arranged Penns
Oct. 2 interview with Guzman,
which was published by Rolling
Stone magazine on Jan. 9, a day
after the fugitive Guzman was
recaptured.

Gomez said
officials want
to question del
Castillo, possibly
at
a
Mexican consulate in the
United States,
where she lives.
We have an
Joaquin
i n v es t i g at i o n
Guzman

case, Gomez said, adding that
information leads officials to
believe the leader of the Sinaloa
drug cartel gave funds to that business.
Gomez said Penn wasnt under
investigation for any crime.
Del Castillo hasnt replied to
requests for comment. On Twitter,
she said last week that many people are making up items they
think will make good stories.

for $215 million from Hudson Pacific
Properties.
The deal, unveiled Tuesday, Jan. 19,
marks the second large San Bruno property
acquisition YouTube has completed in recent
months, as the company spent $88 million
in August to purchase twin office towers
housing its company headquarters at 900
and 1000 Cherry Ave.
The Bayhill Office Center is comprised of
554,328 square feet of class A office space,
which currently serves high-profile companies such as Oracle and Walmart. com,
according to Alex Vouvalides, chief investment officer of Hudson Pacific Properties.
Vouvalides said his company acquired the
site last year as part of a larger transaction
with global investment firm the Blackstone
Group, and had initially identified it as a

revising their bell schedule in 2009, according to the report.
Carlmont officials had been reluctant to
approve amending the bell schedule previously, as students taking the bus north
along Highway 101 from East Palo Alto
would still be required to leave their homes
early in the morning to avoid getting
caught in heavy traffic, according to the
report.
Establishing a later start time primarily
serving those living near the Carlmont
campus who do not face the same commute
issues would have created an unfair advantage for only a portion of the school,
according to the report.

property which company officials would


like to resell.
Its a great project, Vouvalides said.
But we deemed it was not strategic for the
long term in the Bay Area.
Vouvalides said typically when Hudson
Pacific Properties purchases land, officials
prefer the site is located near other assets
owned by, or available to, the company.
In the instance of the Bayhill property,
Vouvalides said Hudson Pacific did not see a
chance for further nearby growth, so the
company elected to sell.
When we invest in a certain submarket,
we do it with an eye to aggregating more
property, and we like to have a larger presence, said Vouvalides. But we didnt see it
as a submarket where we were able to buy
additional properties.
Those sentiments were echoed by Victor
Coleman, CEO of Hudson Pacific
Properties, in a prepared statement.
The asset was non-core to our portfolio,
and we sold it at a premium to our original
purchase price allocation as part of the

Blackstone portfolio acquisition, he said.


The deal took a few months to come to
fruition, said Vouvalides, and transaction
was completed using exclusively cash,
despite the property never being placed on
the open market.
Google, which owns YouTube, declined to
comment on the deal.
For his part, Vouvalides praised the buyer
and said the deal is representative of a growing desire for high-end office space
throughout the Bay Area.
Its a great execution for the company,
he said. Its obviously a great party to do a
transaction with. This just highlights the
demand of tech companies for class A office
space.
YouTube has 800 workers in San Bruno,
housed primary in the companys headquarters at Cherry Avenue, making it the citys
largest private employer, according to a
city report.
The sale marked the second in the area
over recent months for Hudson Pacific as
well, as the company sold the building

housing the headquarters of Virgin American


airlines in Burlingame to an international
investment firm in September.
H&Q Asia Pacific purchased the Bay Park
Plaza on Airport Boulevard in Burlingame
for $90 million from Hudson Pacific
Properties last year.
Both the Burlingame and San Bruno properties were acquired by Hudson Pacific from
the Blackstone Group, said Vouvalides, in a
deal which landed the company 9.2 million
square feet of office space ranging throughout Silicon Valley, from San Jose to San
Francisco.
And though the sales of the Burlingame
and San Bruno sites come only months
apart from each other, Vouvalides said the
deals are unrelated.
These two asset sales are independent,
but they are similar, because the Burlingame
property was less strategic too, he said.
The Bayhill Office Center is nearly 90
percent occupied currently, said Vouvalides,
and is less than half a mile away from the
YouTube headquarters.

Belmont and San Carlos need to be at the


bus stop by 6:30 a.m., negating any potential benefits of a late start time for them,
said Trustee Alan Sarver.
Under recently approved enrollment
boundary shifts though, fewer students are
commuting to Carlmont from East Palo
Alto, lessening the concerns of officials
regarding the equality issue, said Sarver.
Sarver said he believes officials should
offer the same benefit to Carlmont students
that those enrolled at other district schools
enjoy.
Its time for us to bring the benefit to
Carlmont that has been demonstrated so
valuable to our other students at the comprehensive high schools, he said.
Carlmont officials are hoping to approve
the proposed bell schedule amendments, so
start time could be pushed back by the
beginning of the 2016-17 school year.
Students who take the regular six period
day would begin class at 8:57 a.m., under

the proposed amendments, but those who


take an additional zero period would still
begin at the regular start time of 8 a.m. The
final bell of the day would still ring at 3:15
p.m.
A variety of studies have showed pushing
start times later to allow students to get
more rest in the morning has a variety of
benefits, according to the report.
Students who get more sleep are less likely to suffer from depression, be overweight
or get into car crashes, among other risks,
and often enjoy better grades, higher test
scores and have a better quality of life,
according to studies by the American
Academy of Pediatrics.
The proposal to delay bell schedules is
part of a larger regional effort to grant more
time in the morning for students to rest, as
San Mateo Union High School District officials are also advocating for pushing back
start times as part of the effort to install
lights at athletic fields throughout the district.

State Sen. Jerry Hill, D- San Mateo, is


also considering introducing legislation
which will require school officials to discuss later start times, according to the
report.
Should Carlmont ultimately approve the
bell schedule amendments, traffic flow
along Alameda de las Pulgas during the early
morning commute would also be eased, as
many parents are also driving through the
area to drop their children off at Ralston
Middle School.
During minimum days, which Carlmont
has every Wednesday, school starts at 8:53
a.m. and traffic throughout the area is vastly improved, according to the report.
Carlmont Principal Ralph Crame has
already began rallying support for the later
start times with members of the school
community, said the report.
Should officials be amenable to the proposed changes, bell schedule amendments
would come back for formal approval by the
school board next month.

First lady, GOP Congress head


toward truce on school lunches
By Mary Clare Jalonick
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON First lady Michelle


Obama and congressional Republicans may
be headed toward a truce on meals served to
the nations schoolchildren, but at least one
GOP presidential candidate is signaling the
political battle isnt over.
A bipartisan Senate agreement would
revise healthier meal standards put into
place over the last few years to give schools
more flexibility, easing requirements on
whole grains and delaying an upcoming
deadline to cut sodium levels on the lunch
line.
While legislation released by the Senate
Agriculture Committee on Monday would
placate some schools that have complained
the rules are burdensome, it is greatly scaled
back from an unsuccessful 2014 House
Republican effort to allow some schools to
opt out of the rules entirely. The panel is
scheduled to vote on the measure
Wednesday.
After more than two years of public quarreling, the bill signals a possible armistice
between school lunch directors, congressional Republicans and first lady Michelle
Obama, who has highlighted the standards
as part of her campaign against childhood
obesity.
At the same time, GOP presidential candidate Chris Christie made it clear that not
everyone is willing to compromise on the
issue. The New Jersey governor, who in his

Super Bowl mind meld: Guac and potato skins in one bite
By Alison Ladman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

For this easy Super Bowl snack, we combined two of our favorite game day indulgences guacamole and roasted potato
skins.
We start by creating potato boats, which
are dusted with a spicy (you control the
heat) seasoning mix, then baked until tender inside and lightly browned outside.
Meanwhile, we make a delicious batch of
guacamole and as soon as the potato
boats have cooled a bit spoon heaping
mounds of it into them.
Then we eat as many as possible.
Want to dress them up some more?
Nothing wrong with sprinkling the tops
with grated cheese, cooked bacon, cooked
and crumbled sausage, jalapeno pepper
slices, chopped onion or whatever else
strikes you.

the spice mixture. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the outsides are crisped and
browned and the flesh of the potatoes are

While the potatoes bake, prepare the guacamole. In a medium bowl, combine the

the new rules could be in place by next
school year if Congress acts quickly. Under
the agreement between those negotiating
the bill, the new rules would scale back the
whole grain standards to require that 80 percent of grains on the lunch line must be
whole grain rich, or more than half whole
grain.
Currently, all grains are required to be
whole grain rich, though some schools
have applied for waivers. The nutrition

directors say that kids dont like some of


the whole grain pastas, biscuits, grits and
tortillas.
In addition, the agreement would delay
stricter standards on sodium that are scheduled for the 2017 school year. They would
now be delayed two years, and a study
would measure the benefits of those reductions.
The legislation would also require the
government to figure out ways to reduce

waste of fruit and vegetables and put more


resources into summer feeding programs.
The compromise seemed impossible just
a year and a half ago, when the School
Nutrition Association backed the House
GOP effort to allow schools to opt out of
the standards. The first lady held an event at
the White House to lobby for the rules, calling out the School Nutrition Association
by name. She said she would fight until
the bitter end to keep the rules intact.

Buffalo chicken tenders

These hands-off chicken wings require almost no effort, yet, they are every bit as crispy and addictive as a traditional recipe.

Keep the crisp, lose the labor


with these Super Bowl wings
By Alison Ladman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Come Super Bowl Sunday, we all


love a heaping platter of wings.
Theyve got to be crunchy. Theyve
got to be a little bit greasy. Theyve
got to be so delicious we cant stop
eating even after we know weve eaten
too many.
What we dont love about the day of
the big game? The work involved in
making those wings a reality. Because
perfectly crisped and seasoned wings
typically require a fair amount of
effort, not to mention vats of hot oil.
And dealing with that is so much less
fun that cracking a beer on the couch
with your friends.
So we created these hands-off chicken wings that require almost no effort
from you. Yet, they are every bit as
crispy and addictive as a traditional
recipe.
The secret is baking powder. You
start the recipe a few hours ahead of
when you want to serve the wings. Just
toss the wings in a large bowl with
some salt, pepper and baking powder,
then refrigerate them for a while. The
baking powder reacts with the skin,
helping to draw out moisture. Less
moisture equals more crisp!

When its time to cook, you just


arrange the wings on a wire rack set
over a rimmed baking sheet. The rack
keeps the air circulating around the
wings and keeps them up and out of
any liquid that drips onto the pan.
Again, less liquid (and more air) is key
to getting the skin perfectly crisp.
When the wings are done, we like to
dunk them first in our honey-Sriracha
sauce, then in our cilantro-sour cream
dip. But if youd prefer the more traditional Buffalo sauce and blue cheese,
go for it!

HANDS-OFF PARTY WINGS


Start to finish: 3 1/2 hours (15 minutes active)
Makes 30 wings
For the wings:
2 tablespoons baking powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
5 pounds chicken wings, split and
wing tips removed
For the honey-Sriracha sauce:
1/3 cup soy sauce
3 tablespoons Sriracha
3 tablespoons honey
1 1/2 tablespoons minced fresh garlic
1 1/2 tablespoons toasted sesame
oil

For cilantro-sour cream dip:


3/4 cup sour cream
3 tablespoons chopped fresh
cilantro
3 tablespoons rice vinegar
3 scallions, white and green parts,
finely chopped
Line 2 baking sheets with foil, then
arrange a wire rack over the foil. Coat
the rack with cooking spray.
In a large bowl, stir together the
baking powder, salt and black pepper.
Add the wings and toss to coat evenly.
Spread the chicken wings over the rack
and refrigerate for 2 hours, uncovered.
When ready to cook, heat the oven
to 375 F.
Bake the chicken wings for 60 to 70
minutes, flipping them halfway
through, or until very crispy and golden brown.
While the wings bake, prepare the
sauces. For each sauce, combine all
ingredients in a small bowl and mix
until uniform. Serve the wings on a
platter accompanied by the sauces for
dunking.
Nutrition information per wing: 110
calories; 60 calories from fat (54 percent of total calories); 7 g fat (2.5 g
saturated; 0 g trans fats); 50 mg cholesterol; 400 mg sodium; 3 g carbohydrate; 0 g fiber; 2 g sugar; 8 g protein.

Start to finish: 2 hours 30 minutes (15 minutes active)


Servings: 4
2 garlic cloves, smashed
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons hot sauce (my favorite for this
recipe is Tabasco Chipotle), divided
2 cups plus 6 tablespoons buttermilk, divided
1 pound chicken tenders (or chicken breasts cut into 3-by1-inch strips, 1/2-inch thick)
3/4 cup whole-wheat Italian seasoned breadcrumbs
1/4 cup panko breadcrumbs
1/4 cup low-fat mayonnaise
1/4 cup crumbled blue cheese
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
In a medium bowl, combine the garlic, salt, 2 tablespoons
of the hot sauce and 2 cups of the buttermilk. Whisk until the
salt is dissolved. Add the chicken tenders and stir to coat
well with the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2
hours and up to 10 hours. When ready to cook, heat the oven
to 425 F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and
spray it with olive oil cooking spray.
In a shallow bowl combine the whole-wheat and panko
breadcrumbs. In another small bowl, whisk together the
remaining 6 tablespoons of buttermilk, the mayonnaise,
blue cheese and lemon juice. Transfer to a ramekin for dipping. Pour the remaining 1/4 cup of hot sauce into a second
ramekin for dipping. Use a colander to drain the chicken, but
do not pat it dry. Dip each chicken piece in the breadcrumb
mixture, making sure it is coated well on both sides. Arrange
the chicken in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet,
then spritz the tops with olive oil cooking spray.
Bake on the ovens middle shelf for 10 minutes. Turn the
chicken pieces over and bake for an additional 5 minutes, or
until they are just cooked through. Let cool for a few minutes, then transfer to a platter. Serve with both dipping
sauces.

drought, most areas in San Mateo


County received just over an inch of
rainfall over a 24-hour-period ending
4 p.m. Tuesday.
San
Francisco
International
Airport, which most accurately
reflects San Mateo County, and Half
Moon Bay each received about 1.04
inches; Redwood City got 1.13 inches, a meter at Aragon High School in
San Mateo noted 1. 11 inches,
Atherton felt 1. 25 inches and
Montara got 1.6 inches, according to
forecasters with the National Weather
Service.
Spring Valley, between Interstate
280 and Highway 1, received the
most relief with about 1.84 inches of
rain, according to the NWS.
After the latest El Nio storm,
many areas are getting closer to
reaching normal precipitation levels, which is based on the Oct. 1
through Sept. 30 water year.
Over the last few weeks we have
picked up a decent amount of precipitation as far as January goes. For
pretty much anywhere in the Bay
Area, youre running about 100 percent of normal [for January] said
NWS forecaster Drew Peterson. But
if we go back to the start of the water
year for the Bay Area, almost everywhere is less than normal.
As of this year, SFO is about 88
percent of normal, Oakland is about
66 percent of normal and San Jose is
at 115 percent of normal, Peterson
said.
If anything, were still behind
even for this year. It might seem like
its been a wet year so far, but thats
just relative to the last three years of
extreme drought conditions. But we
are expecting more precipitation
throughout the remainder of the water
year, which still has several months
to go, Peterson said.

El Nio brings
hazardous conditions
Along with Tuesdays storm came
hazards such as Pescadero Creek Road
flooding, nearly three times as many
car accidents reported to the
California Highway Patrol and some
losing power after lines were downed.
The combination of dry soil suddenly being saturated and powerful
winds toppled several trees in
Belmont. One resident received a sudden shock when a large tree fell,
striking her home on the 1900 block
of Hillman Avenue, said Belmont
police Capt. Pat Halleran.
No one was injured and it caused
minimal damage to her home. But it
took crews hours to clear the scene

and resulted in power outages,


Halleran said.
It was probably scary for her. The
drought has stressed all these trees,
then they got all this water and the
ground was saturated. So with all this
wind, they just started coming
down, Halleran said.
There were three other incidents
involving downed or compromised
trees in Belmont with Ralston
Avenue becoming one of the most
problematic areas, said Halleran and
Public Works Director Afshin
Oskoui.
One tree fell on the busy Ralston
Avenue just east of Davis Drive and
when crews arrived they determined it
was best to cut down at least one
other that was leaning into the street,
Oskoui said.
Traffic was diverted for several
hours before the roads were cleared.
Fortunately, there wasnt significant flooding as crews previously
cleared gutters and were able to spend
more time focusing on clearing fallen
tree debris, Oskoui said.
Half Moon Bay avoided any serious
pileups as the city, for the first time
in seven years, received a permit to
clear its drains and ditches last
September, said Deputy City
Manager Alex Khojikian.
That really helped reduce flooding
in the city, Khojikian said, noting
the city is required to get special permits. Working in a coastal environment its important to make sure
our drainage is working well and
well continue our efforts to maintain
our infrastructure to avoid flooding.
But we are cognizant of future storms
and El Nio, so were continually
monitoring the season.
Further south, officials with the
countys Office of Emergency
Services warned of Pescadero Creek
Road flooding several times over the
past few wet-weather days.
OES continues to monitor minor
flooding on Pescadero [Road] and we
are closely watching other flood
prone areas of the county. So far,
there has not been any reported major
flooding or reported damage due to
this current storm, OES Director Lt.
Paul Kunkel said in an email.

Officials urge residents to do their


part to keep themselves and their
communities safe.
Waiting until the storm hits isnt
the best time to start making preparations. Instead, calling ahead to report
any trees that may be of concern,
removing trash or clearing gutters,
keeping emergency kits and stocking
up on sandbags is recommended.
Knowing whether you live in an
area thats prone to flooding is
extremely important as you may be
required to take more extenuating
measures. Some areas in the county
that will be closely watched include
the Harbor Boulevard area in
Belmont, Pescadero Road and the San
Francisquito Creek, according to
county spokeswoman Michelle
Durand.
Signing up for the countys alert
system and staying informed by listening to local radio or TV stations
for updates is key as well, Durand
said.
Durand and Kunkel also urged residents to drive safe and avoid rising
waterways.
On Tuesday, the rate of reported
highway crashes nearly tripled, said
CHP Officer Art Montiel.
Nearly 60 accidents were reported
between
San
Francisco
and
Sunnyvale between midnight and 4
p. m. Tuesday. A five-car accident
resulting in injuries was reported on
northbound Highway 101 just north
of the Whipple Avenue exit, Montiel
said.
Numerous other solo spinouts were
caused by drivers failing to slow
down while entering the freeways
before
striking
guardrails.
Ultimately, its about using common
sense and taking precautions when
the weather gets bad, Montiel said.
Keep in mind that traffic is going
to be a lot slower on the roadways,
leave ample time to get to work,
dont be rushing, because itll cause
more crashes, Montiel said.
He also recommends driving in the
center lanes to avoid merging drivers
and outer lanes that are quicker to
flood due to highway debris.
Many of Tuesdays incidents
occurred during the morning and early
afternoon before the storm died
down. More weather is expected
Friday and its typical for El Nio
patterns to bring the bulk of precipitation during January through March,
said Peterson.
I wouldnt say were close to
breaking out of the drought yet. But
this rain is helping, Peterson said.
I think we just have to wait and see
whats in store for us.

THE DAILY JOURNAL

CLIFF
Continued from page 1
Considered part of the California Coastal Trail, the road
continues north before it dead ends at the Miramar Beach
access path. Now, some have raised concerns neighboring
sewer lines and utilities could be at risk if the road is
allowed to deteriorate further.
While El Nio has been credited as responsible for
increasing rainfall and surging swells, Joe LoCoco, the
countys deputy director of road services, said its difficult
to confirm whether the storm systems are directly at fault
for the exacerbated erosion.
Over the course of the last week is when we were really
starting to see some significant erosion, just accelerated
erosion on that bank, LoCoco said. The rains really arent
the big deal [in this case]; whats causing the bluff to erode
is really the waves striking the bluffs in an exposed section
where the waves have been fairly high. In general as of late,
theres been some pretty good swells and surges.
Now, the county and city are seeking permits for an interim shoreline protection project involving boulders being
stacked against the bluffs to protect against the ocean.
LoCoco said local utility providers were also contacted to
check on their lines, such as sewer and power facilities, and
are asked to submit documentation showing exactly where
the infrastructure lies. As a best guess, LoCoco said it
appears more likely the larger utility lines and sewer pipes
span along the east side of Mirada Road closer to the properties and are not immediately at risk.
Joe Colella, who lives at the intersection of Medio
Avenue and Mirada Road, said the neighborhood is gravely
concerned the road could be compromised, potentially cutting off the communitys access to the beach and residents
access to their homes.
Colella said several utility providers marked the roads
Tuesday afternoon and a main water line is now about 8 to
10 feet away from the bluffs.
While the county may be considering using boulders as a
temporary fix, Colella said many along the coast believe
jetties at Pillar Point Harbor are causing the beaches to
erode.
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, which built the jetty,
has taken years to conduct a study as to whether it will support dredging of the harbor. The San Mateo County Harbor
District is also striving for a sand replenishment project at
Surfers Beach to the north of Miramar Beach, yet receiving

LOCAL
environmental clearance is also expected to take time.
The county and city officials are well-versed in efforts to
mitigate the impacts caused by sand building up in the harbor and are currently in the midst of repairing the riprap
near Surfers Beach.
Colella said hes worried the Mirada Road fix wont
address the root of the problem.
The frustration here is primarily that we just see these
problems rise up because of one big problem, and that is
that the harbor is faulty, the Army Corps of Engineers is
faulty, and the harbor is the main culprit thats causing all
this erosion. And basically absorbing all our sand into the
harbor, Colella said. The riprap at Mirada is another
Band-Aid for a long-term problem. So until they come up
with a solution to dredge the harbor and replenish the
beaches, its not really going to fix it.
Still, immediate action is needed. Officials had to await an
emergency coastal development permit from the Coastal
Commission before making temporary repairs. Theyre
hoping to begin work Wednesday after state officials indicated the permit was approved.
From the countys and Half Moon Bays perspective, we
recognize the urgency of the matter, so were both trying to
do everything in our powers to try and proceed as quickly as
possible with both an initial bluff protection project and a
long-term stability project, LoCoco said.
Similar to riprap, the boulders would be stacked nearly 8feet-high to soften the blow of the storm-powered waves,
LoCoco said.
Were just trying to provide some immediate protection,
so were not looking to stack boulders all the way to the top
of the road, which would be a very large project. Were looking to have it come part way up the bluffs and get to a height
that would at least take the initial blow from most of the
wave action youd anticipate out there, LoCoco said.
Alex Khojikian, Half Moon Bay deputy city manager,
said officials are continuing to monitor the storm season
and striving to protect the sensitive bluffs against the challenging coastal environment.
Any time that its exposed like that, its never good. So
were working to make those emergency repairs. That is the
most important thing at this point, Khojikian said.
In seeking a longer term protection measures, the county
will consider a geotechnical study and possible remedies
that must also be approved by the Coastal Commission.
One concept would be to create a curtained wall with
micropiles. In essence, numerous holes are drilled straight
down into the road then injected with concrete slurry.
Because the small holes are densely packed together, it creates a sort of concrete wall providing internal support within the soil below the road, LoCoco said.

Still, neither the concept nor specific long-term solution


has been approved by the commission yet and LoCoco said
they hope to have more information available over the next
few weeks.
With predictions that El Nio hasnt yet finished touching down across California, LoCoco said the county and
city are striving to find solutions sooner rather than later.
Its definitely the waves that are the most significant
element thats contributing to these failures. I think you
can say that, in general, the stormier weather you have, the
larger likelihood of having big waves, LoCoco said.
Were in the process of trying to latch on to an engineering road stabilization solution that will provide long-term
stability.
