While Foster City has long awaited its first marina, a formal proposal to construct one may be tied to the
property owners ability to build
housing an increasingly controversial topic among residents.
Foster City Marina Center, owner
of the 62-acre property, broached
the topic last April and came forward
in December with a formal and
scaled-back proposal that outlines
the need for housing and retail space
to support a community beneficial
marina and pier.
The City Council is planning to
hold a second study session to
review the marina project as some
residents advocated against more
housing by speaking out against

proposals to redevelop the
Edgewater Plaza and Charter Square
shopping centers into mixed-use
housing and retail complexes.
Yet unlike the proposals to take
retail away from the already developed community serving shopping
centers, the marina site at Beach
Park Boulevard near Halibut and
Swordfish streets has never been
built upon.
The marina proposal outlines 160
residential units, cut from 273 units;
and 20,500 square feet of retail
space spread between three buildings, scaled back from 27,500
square feet. Supporting the 214-slip
marina with a 600-foot long pier
local zoning laws, Superintendent

Jim Lianides said.
But Ben Fuller, president of the
Greater
East
San
Carlos
Neighborhood Association, told
the Daily Journal yesterday that
there is also concern the district
may resort to eminent domain to
purchase more property to expand
the campus.
Hopefully the district will face

so much resistance that they will
find an appropriate parcel, Fuller
said.
The district, he said, is
accountable to no one and
should have conducted some outreach before buying the parcel.

The Department of Parks and

ATLANTA Grammy-winning R&B
group TLC is depending on fans to fund
the release of their final album through a
Kickstarter campaign.
The group, which currently consists of
T-Boz and Chilli, launched the campaign
on Monday. Its been nearly 13 years
since their last album, 3D, which was
released seven months after the death of
Lisa Left Eye Lopes in 2002.
Weve always been known to do
things differently, said T-Boz, who was
born Tionne Watkins. Weve always
been trailblazers and trendsetters. Weve
always been outspoken, and this seems
like the perfect opportunity.
TLC released back-to-back hits, including Creep, Waterfalls and No
Scrubs. Their Grammy-winning sophomore album, CrazySexyCool, sold
more than 10 million units. The group
once filed for bankruptcy in 1996,
despite having two multiplatinum
albums.
T-Boz and Rozanda Chilli Thomas
have already begun the writing phase and
production of their fifth album, expecting to release it in May when their tour
starts. The group is hoping to collect at
least $150,000 through the campaign to
fund the recording process from paying
for studio time, production, compensating the musicians and promoting the
album.

that way. Theres a lot that goes into it.
We want to bring our fans into the
process and see how its done.
TLCs campaign efforts follow Neil
Young, who used Kickstarter to raise $6.2
million through 18,000 supporters last
year to fund his digital music project
PonoMusic.
With donations starting at $5, supporters will receive an exclusive digital track
and communicate with them during their
recording process. Higher pledges will
include VIP concert tickets, a recorded
custom voicemail by T-Boz and Chilli, an
in-person fitness class taught by Chilli
and wardrobe pieces worn by TLC during
their music videos.
Chilli said using Kickstarter would
allow them to have more control over the
direction of the album.

BOISE, Idaho Idaho lawmakers worried that special recognition of the Idaho
giant salamander could lead to federal protections have rejected a grade school students request that it be named the state
amphibian.
The House State Affairs Committee
voted 10-6 on Monday against 14-yearold Ilah Hickmans plan. It was her fifth
attempt in as many years to persuade lawmakers that students made a good choice
for state amphibian.
I was kind of disappointed, but either
way Im going to come back next year and
push it again, Hickman told The
Spokesman-Review. Im going to keep
pushing, until it either passes or I cant
get hearings anymore.
An Idaho attorney generals opinion
advised lawmakers that approving the
salamander as a state symbol wouldnt do
anything in the way of encouraging federal protections. But lawmakers remained
wary.
My whole concern is potential federal
overreach, said Rep. Don Cheatham, RPost Falls. In north Idaho we have the
water litigation going. I just am in fear
that something could be impacted if it
became an endangered species.

School district addressing

ongoing enrollment issues
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
The Next Steps Advisory Committee continued narrowing possible options for
addressing enrollment and capacity concerns at schools across the San MateoFoster City Elementary School District during a meeting Monday night.
The eight-person committee, comprised
of current and former members of the district
Board of Trustees, as well
as residents of San Mateo
and Foster City, focused
the conversation around
possible ways to add
classrooms to accommodate the districts evergrowing student population.
Members
bandied
Cynthia Simms about the feasibility of
establishing a new
school on the College Park Elementary
School campus in San Mateo and building a
new school in Foster City as just a few ideas
that could help alleviate the districts growing pains.
Demographic studies project that the district is expected to grow by 250 students
annually, which administrators worry will
overcrowd campuses and overwhelm school
facilities, unless the district takes action.
Enrollment has spiked by 13 percent over
the past ve years, and 75 new classrooms
are necessary to accommodate more students coming into the district, according to
a district report.
The committee has spent months engaging in public outreach, and taking community suggestions on how to best deal with
enrollment issues. Members are currently
working to whittle down that input into
potential recommendations for the district
administration and Board of Trustees.
Ultimately, the district may be interested
in proposing a bond measure to voters,
which would be used pay for the construction of additional school facilities. In
2013, voters shot down Measure P, which
would have nanced the reconstruction and
rebuilding of Bowditch Middle School to
house fth-grade students from Foster City
and re-open Knolls Elementary School in
San Mateo.
During the committees narrowing
process, Superintendent Cynthia Simms
said that it would be important to consider
no-cost options such as expanding the districts year-round class calendar, which
could increase the exibility of classrooms
by instituting a revolving vacation schedule with little expense to the district.

Police release photo, video
of woman passing counterfeit bill
Belmont police have released video
footage and a photo of a woman suspected of
passing a counterfeit
$100 bill at a shopping
mall last month, police
said Saturday.
A woman was seen on
security video at a beauty
salon and supply store at
the Carlmont Village
Shopping Center located
at 1049 Alameda de las
Pulgas around 6 p.m. Dec. 20, police said.
The suspect is described as a Hispanic
woman who is about 40 years old and standing about 5 feet 3 inches tall with scarring
on her face and drawn-on eyebrows both
shaped as an upside-down V, according to
police.
She was seen wearing hospital-type
scrubs described as a light blue top with
Hello Kitty print and dark pants, police
said.
The video footage can be seen on the
Belmont Public Safety YouTube channel at
Last week, committee member Mark

Hudak, a former president of the Board of
Trustees, expressed reluctance to sign off on
any plan that might result in overhauling
the school calendar but Simms persuaded
him and the rest of the committee at
Monday nights meeting to at least consider the option.
Everything will be considered. But radical changes to how we serve our students
would be least attractive, Hudak said last
week. A year-round multi-track schedule
would be very challenging for our students.
I dont know that were at that point.
Hudak did emphasize the importance of
considering to establish a neighborhood
school for students living in North Central
San Mateo, because he said some district
residents expressed strong interest in that
idea during the public outreach process.
College Park Elementary School is located in the North Central neighborhood, but
currently exists solely as a Mandarin
immersion program. But the districts architect and facilities staff said that there is
enough space on the campus to build additional classrooms that could function as a
separate school, and existing campus facilities would be shared between the two
schools.
Students from North Central currently
have the option to enroll in the Mandarin
immersion program at College Park, or be
bused to other neighborhood schools in the
district.
Should the district elect to go forward in
establishing a neighborhood school in
North Central, Hudak said it would be imperative to institute programs that would prevent the academic failures that occurred during the previous iteration of College Park
Elementary, prior to the school transitioning to a Mandarin immersion program.
One of the greatest contributors to the
enrollment concerns is growing numbers
from Foster City. Development of residential projects such as 400 units at the Foster
Square site and 166 units at Pilgrim-Triton
only compound fears about school district
impact.
Foster City Councilman Charlie
Bronitsky spoke at a Next Steps meeting
last week to ensure that the city would be
willing to work with the district to solve
enrollment issues in Foster City.
Board President Audrey Ng, who also sits
on the committee, echoed those sentiments.
The city will be working very hard with
us, she said.

Dozens detained in protest

on the San Mateo Bridge
BAY CITY NEWS SERVICE
Dozens of protesters were

detained after making their way on
the San Mateo-Hayward Bridge
late Monday afternoon that closed
lanes for nearly two hours,
snarling the evening commute,
according to the California
Highway Patrol.
The group made their way on
eastbound and westbound lanes of
State Route 92 on the bridge at the
high-rise around 4:50 p.m., CHP
Officer Daniel Hill said.
The protesters had been dropped
off by cars on westbound lanes and
briefly made their way to both

sides of the freeway, he said.
As of shortly after 5 p.m., eastbound lanes were reopened for
motorists heading to Hayward but
westbound lanes were still closed
off for cars traveling to Foster
City, according to the CHP.
There were 30 CHP patrol units
sent to the bridge to clear the protesters, according to the CHP.
Around 5:15 p.m., the far left
lane on the westbound side was
reopened to traffic, CHP officials
said.
The group was given the opportunity to leave the scene peaceful-
ly, but 68 people who didnt comply with orders from officers were
detained, Hill said.
As of about 6:10 p. m. , the
arrested protesters were still on
the bridge waiting to be transported to San Mateo County Jail,
according to Hill.
They are expected to face
charges of disobeying a lawful
order of a peace officer and
obstructing the free movement of
others, Hill said.
The protesters were peaceful and
did not become violent, according
to Hill.
Elephant seals travel farther than thought

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
PESCADERO Researchers
tracking elephant seals off the
Northern California coast say they
have discovered the animals travel
much farther than once thought.
The University of California,
Santa Cruz researchers last year
found two elephant seals had
crossed the international dateline,
putting them closer to Russia than
the United States, Patrick
Robinson with UC Santa Cruzs
Ano Nuevo Natural Reserve, told
the San Jose Mercury News in a
story on Sunday.
Male elephant seals spend much

of their time in the northern
Pacific, off the coast of Alaska and
the Aleutian Islands. Females tend
to hunt in the northeast Pacific.
They return to Ano Nuevo in San
Mateo County and other spots on
the California coast each winter to
breed.
Were trying to figure out what
these animals are doing at sea,
Robinson said.
Researchers in collaboration
with the U. S. Office of Naval
Research and people in Japan
tagged elephant seals recently and
used miniature cameras to see what
type of fish and squid they were

eating.
Their home is really the
ocean, said Terry Kiser, supervising ranger at Ano Nuevo State
Park. They spend 90 percent of
their lives in the ocean.
The seals, thought to have nearly gone extinct in the late 1800s,
now number around 225,000 to
230,000.
Mature males can grow up to 16
feet long and weigh 5,400 pounds.
Females can be as long as 10 feet
and weigh 1,500 pounds.

Lake Tahoe researchers probe

tiny critter population plunges
RENO, Nev. Researchers at Lake Tahoe are trying to figure out why some of the tiniest creatures and plants at the
bottom of the alpine lake appear to be disappearing at an
alarming rate.
Scuba divers recently completed a first-of-its kind circuit
of the entire lake to assess the ecological changes that could
be affecting a host of native macro invertebrates some
that exist only in Tahoes waters.
Sudeep Chandra, a freshwater science expert at the
University of Nevada, Reno, says a variety of worms, stoneflies, bottom shrimp and water mites are crashing in population compared to levels measured in the 1960s.
He says populations of two, the blind amphipod and Tahoe
flatworm, have dropped by as much as 99.9 percent.
They are disappearing. Its unprecedented. Its absolutely
dramatic, Chandra told the Reno Gazette-Journal
(http://tinyurl.com/ozlrzk6).
Chandra said the lake bottom serves as the backbone for
chemical cycling of the lakes waters.
Its the sponge of the lake, basically, Chandra said.
Protecting Lake Tahoe and its clarity in the long run is real-
ly dependent on a functional lake bottom.

We basically have new habitats being created in the shallows, Chandra said.
The animals depend to a large degree on native bottom
plants such as skunkweed and moss for habitat, and those
plants also appear to be vanishing, research suggests.
Part of the trend could be attributed to crayfish not
native to Tahoe that are grazing on the plants. First introduced to the lake in the late 1800s, Tahoes thriving crayfish
population is now estimated at 200 million to 300 million.
Another possibility is a legacy effect of Tahoes diminished clarity. In the late 1960s, one could see more than 100
feet from the surface into Tahoes depths. Today, visibility
extends to only about 70 feet, a trend experts attribute to the
presence of suspended sediments and algae growth associated with human activity.
While evidence suggests environmental restoration projects around the lake over the past 18 years have stopped midlake clarity loss, bottom plants may have already been damaged as murkier waters cut off sunlight.
It looks like clarity is beginning to stabilize, but the
bottom of the lake continues to change at a dramatic rate,
Chandra said.
California is worst in nation

for school guidance counselors
LOS ANGELES California ranks worst in the nation

when it comes to providing students with guidance counselors, according to the U.S. Department of Education, and
authorities say the scarcity disproportionately affects the
states most vulnerable students because there simply are
not enough counselors to track transient students and
make sure they are taking the right credits to graduate.
The problem is most pronounced in impoverished districts, where, for a variety of reasons, students are most
often on the move. Foster kids bounce around. Other kids
move with parents who are looking for jobs, and some are
sent to live with relatives until their parents can get on
their feet.
Transient students need guidance counselors to help
them figure out their next steps. California law requires
that transcripts follow students to their next school within two days of transfer. But with so few counselors, mistakes happen. The American School Counselor
Association recommends a student-to-counselor ratio of
250-to-1. In California, the ratio was 1,016-to-1 for the
2010-11 school year, the latest for which data is available.
Transcripts, which are solely schools responsibility,
may never be sent, or they get lost and no one follows up.
At the new school, counselors have to assign kids to
classes without ever seeing a transcript. Students end up
taking courses that dont count toward graduation.
If you ask a teacher or a counselor why this happens,
theyll often say, We didnt have a transcript, said Debra

Sacks of Come Back Kids, a charter school that helps
dropouts in Riverside County. You have people just
assigning classes without truly evaluating the needs of the
students, and thats just negligent.
The decline in school counselors can be traced back to
Proposition 13, according to Loretta Whitson, executive
director of the California Association of School
Counselors. The initiative, passed by California voters in
1978, lowered property taxes at a time when home values
and thus tax assessments were skyrocketing. Senior citizens on fixed incomes were in danger of getting priced out
of their homes. As a side effect of Prop. 13, districts could
no longer raise property taxes to fund education and were
forced instead to rely on state funding and to fight with
competing interests for the money.
The problem became worse when large numbers of counselors were laid off in California during the economic
downturn that began in 2008. At the start of the recession,
the state employed 7,839 counselors. Kathleen Rakestraw
of the American School Counselor Association says that
number dropped to 6,191 by the 2010-11 school year.
The impact of the layoffs has been compounded by the
states extraordinary population growth and by overcrowded schools. California does not mandate counselors,
so schools dont have to employ them, and there is no one
at the state education department whose job it is to advocate for their hiring. All of these factors, on top of the
recession, have produced what Whitson calls a perfect
storm.

Obamas tax proposals get cool reception from GOP

WASHINGTON Republican lawmakers are

already signaling they will do what they can to
block President Barack Obamas pitch for tax
increases on the wealthiest Americans.
Obama is making that pitch to a huge television audience in hopes of putting the new
Republican Congress in the position of
defending top income earners over the middle
class.
As Obama continues to signal what he will
propose during Tuesdays State of the Union
address, senior administration officials said
during the weekend that he will call for raising
the capital gains rate on top income earners and
eliminating a tax break on inheritances. The
revenue generated by those changes would fund

new tax credits and other cost-saving measures
for middle-class taxpayers, officials said.
Tax increases are rarely welcomed by congressional Republicans, who now hold majorities in the House and the Senate for the first
time in Obamas presidency. His tax proposals
will probably be dismissed, if not outright
ignored, by lawmakers outside the Democratic
Partys liberal base.
Rep. Adam Kinzinger, R-Ill., said that he had
heard all five of Obamas State of the Union
addresses, which he said are filled with proposals both good and bad. But he said on ABCs
This Week that the president has fallen short
by failing to establish close ties to Congress.
Key Republicans in both chambers indicated
Wanted teen agreeing

to return to Kentucky
PANAMA CITY, Fla. The drama surrounding two teenage sweethearts on the run from
the law ended quietly and unceremoniously in
a Florida beach town.
Dalton Hayes, an 18-year-old suspected of
committing a string of crimes with his 13year-old girlfriend, agreed during a quick
Monday morning court hearing to return to
his home state of Kentucky to face charges.
Hayes and his girlfriend Cheyenne Phillips
were arrested late Saturday night in Panama
City Beach by the U.S. Marshals Service and
local police after being found sleeping in a
stolen vehicle.
During a first appearance hearing Bay
County Judge Shane Vann said heres the
deal to Hayes: He could agree to return to
Kentucky, or stay in jail while authorities
went through a formal extradition process.
Ill sign the papers so I can go back to
Kentucky, Hayes said during the brief proceeding held via a video link-up between the
Bay County Jail and the Bay County
Courthouse. Hayes appeared fidgety during
the start of the brief hearing, but responded
quickly to Vann. He signed his paperwork
while Vann watched and then was taken out of
view back into the jail.
The saga of both Hayes and Phillips had
attracted national attention after the two
sweethearts disappeared and worked their way
to the Gulf of Mexico.
The couple allegedly began their run from
the law and their families earlier this month
when they vanished from their small hometown in western Kentucky. Authorities
believe their travels took them to South
Carolina and Georgia before they ended up in
Panama City Beach.
A Panama City Beach police report shows
that an officer found a stolen truck in the parking lot of a home furnishings store just off the
main highway that straddles Floridas coastline. Authorities surrounded the vehicle where
they discovered both Hayes and Phillips.
Hayes mother, Tammy Martin, had urged
her son and his companion to surrender and
face the consequences.
Authorities said Hayes is expected to be
charged with burglary, theft, criminal trespassing and criminal mischief.
Phillips will face charges in juvenile court
because she is a minor. The police report
shows that Phillips was turned over to
Floridas Department of Children and
Families and she was taken to a safe house. A
spokesman for the Panama City Beach Police
said Monday that her status had not changed
and she was not being charged by Florida
authorities.
Martin said the couple had been dating for
about three months. She said the girl portrayed herself as being 19, and the family,
including Hayes, believed her.
The girl would go in and write checks, and
she would come out with cigarettes and stuff,
so I didnt have any reason not to believe she
wasnt 19, Martin said.
By the time her son realized she was a mere
13, he was already done in love with her,
Martin said.
Absolutely not. I think we should have a debate

in this country between middle-class economics and trickle-down economics and see if we
can come to an agreement on the things we do
agree on. He spoke on CBSs Face the Nation
Administration officials disclosed details of
the tax proposals on the condition of
anonymity because they were not authorized to
discuss the proposals by name before the presidents speech.
The centerpiece of the presidents tax proposal is an increase in the capital gains rate on
couples making more than $500,000 per year
to 28 percent, the same level as under President
Ronald Reagan. The top capital gains rate has
already been raised from 15 percent to 23.8 percent during Obamas presidency.

Turkey president convenes
Cabinet amid power-grab claims
ANKARA, Turkey Turkeys president
on Monday convened a Cabinet meeting for
the first time, a political maneuver that is
raising concerns among critics that he is
pushing ahead to expand the powers of the
largely ceremonial presidency.
Recep Tayyip Erdogan, who has dominated Turkish politics for the past decade as
prime minister and was elected president in
August, has set his sights on turning the
parliamentary system into a presidential
one, giving the head of state more executive
powers.
He has been pushing for a constitutional
change to usher in a presidential system
a difficult task that would depend on whether
the ruling party can win enough seats in
elections in June for the constitutional
shift.
In the meantime, Erdogan insists that as
the first president to be elected by the people and not by parliament, he has a mandate
to exercise more powers.
DONETSK, Ukraine Russian-backed

rebels and Ukrainian government troops
fought pitched battles Monday for control
of Donetsk airport, while residential areas
nearby were caught in intensive crossfire.
The airport, reduced to a wreck by months
of heavy fighting, has been the epicenter of
hostilities due to its symbolic importance
and strategic location on the edge of the
main rebel-controlled city.
The airport has become a symbol of
Ukrainian combat valor and its loss would
be a major blow to national pride.
The rebels say they have fully seized the
airport in recent fighting, but Ukrainian
officials reject the claim. They say
Ukrainian troops are still holding out in the
wreckage of the new terminal, a steel-andglass showcase for the UEFA Euro 2012 soccer championship hosted by Ukraine.
Three Ukrainian servicemen were killed
and 66 wounded in the previous 24 hours,
military spokesman Andriy Lysenko told
reporters, but he would not say how many of
those casualties occurred at the airport.

Troops battle Shiite rebels in Yemeni capital

By Ahmed Al-Haj
SANAA, Yemen Yemens U.S.-backed

leadership came under serious threat Monday
as government troops clashed with Shiite
rebels near the presidential palace and a key
military base in what one official called a
step toward a coup.
The militants seized control of state media
in fierce fighting that marked the biggest
challenge yet to President Abed Rabbo
Mansour Hadi by the rebels, known as
Houthis, who swept down from their northern strongholds last year and captured the
capital in September.
The violence threatened to undermine
efforts by the U.S. and its allies to battle alQaidas Yemeni affiliate, which claimed
responsibility for the attack on a Paris satirical magazine this month and which
Washington has long viewed as the global
networks most dangerous branch.
The Houthis and forces loyal to Hadi have
been in a tense standoff for months and the
two sides traded blame for the outbreak of
violence Monday. Witnesses said heavy
machine gun fire could be heard as artillery
shells struck around the presidential palace.
Civilians in the area fled as columns of
black smoke rose over the palace and sirens
wailed throughout the city.
Hadi, whose government has ceded control over nearly the entire capital, doesnt
live at the palace, and extra soldiers and
tanks deployed around his private residence,
which is nearby.
As fighting escalated Monday, the convoys of Yemens prime minister and a top
Catholics dont have to breed like rabbits

THE ASSOICATED PRESS
ABOARD THE PAPAL PLANE Pope

Francis is firmly upholding church teaching
banning contraception, but said Monday that
Catholics dont have to breed like rabbits and
should instead practice responsible parenting.
Speaking to reporters en route home from the
Philippines, Francis said there are plenty of
church-approved ways to regulate births. But
he said most importantly, no outside institution should impose its views on regulating
family size, blasting what he called the ideological colonization of the developing world.
African bishops, in particular, have long
complained about how progressive, Western
ideas about birth control and gay rights are
increasingly being imposed on the developing
world by groups, institutions or individual
nations, often as a condition for development
aid.
His comments, taken together with his

defense of the Catholic Churchs ban on artificial contraception during the trip, signal that
he is increasingly showing his more conservative bent, which has largely been ignored by
public opinion or obscured by a media narrative that has tended to highlight his populist
persona.
On the trip, he gave his strongest defense yet
of the 1968 encyclical Humanae Vitae, which
enshrined the churchs opposition to artificial
birth control. He warned against insidious
attacks against the family a reference to
gay marriage proposals echoing language
often used by overwhelmingly conservative
U.S. bishops.
At the same time, however, he said its not
true that to be a good Catholic you have to be
like rabbits. On the contrary, he said responsible parenthood requires that couples regulate
the births of their children, as church teaching
allows.
official affiliated with the Houthis came

under fire, and rebel fighters took over
Yemen state television and its official SABA
news agency, Information Minister Nadia
Sakkaf said.
This is a step toward a coup and it is targeting the states legitimacy, Sakkaf told
the Associated Press.
Cease-fire
negotiations
continued
throughout the day by a presidential committee that included the interior and defense
ministers, a presidential aide and a tribal
sheik close to the Houthis. By the end of the
day, a tenuous truce appeared to be holding.
The announcement of a cease-fire came
after witnesses said the rebels had seized
control of strategic hills that overlook both
the palace and the military camp south of it.
There was no government confirmation of
the loss of territory.

Popes climate-change stand

deepens conservatives distrust
NEW YORK Conservative distrust of

Pope Francis, which has been building in the
U.S. throughout his pontificate, is reaching a
boiling point over his plan to urge action on
climate change and to do so through a document traditionally used
for the most important
papal teachings.
For months, Francis
has been drafting an
encyclical on the environment and global warming which he hopes to
release by June or July.
Encyclicals are written
Pope Francis with the help of a small
group of advisers working under strict secrecy. But in a news conference as he traveled last week to the
Philippines, Francis gave his strongest signal yet of the direction hell take.
He said global warming was mostly manmade. And he said he wanted his encyclical
out in plenty of time to be absorbed before
the next round of U.N. climate change talks
in Paris in November after the last round in
Lima, Peru, failed to reach an agreement.
I dont know if it (human activity) is the
only cause, but mostly, in great part, it is
man who has slapped nature in the face,
Francis said. We have in a sense taken over
nature.
Even before these remarks, several conservative U.S. commentators had been pre-emptively attacking the encyclical. At Investors
Business Daily, Forbes and TownHall.com,
writers had accused the pope of adopting a
radical environmental agenda.
Pope Francis and I say this as a
Catholic is a complete disaster when it
comes to his public policy pronouncements, wrote Steve Moore, chief economist
of The Heritage Foundation, a conservative
think tank. On the economy, and even more
so on the environment, the pope has allied
himself with the far left and has embraced an
ideology that would make people poorer and
less free.
At the website of the Catholic journal First
Things, a blogger accused the pope of promoting theologized propaganda on conservation a post the journals editor later disavowed and published guidance by prominent Catholic thinker Robert George about
what should be considered authoritative in an
encyclical and what could be ignored.
For the most part, they are conservatives
who have criticized other Catholics in the
past for disagreeing with definitive statements in papal encyclicals. said David
Cloutier, a theologian at Mount St. Marys
University in Maryland who specializes in
the environment. Theyre scared that the
document is going to say something definitive that they cant agree with. That will put
them in a very difficult situation.

Legislative session holds promise and peril

By Kevin Mullin
here is no shortage of challenging

issues that will make news from the
state Capitol during the 2015-16
legislative session ranging from education
reform, to funding transportation infrastructure, to combating climate change and
more.
As the newly sworn-in
speaker pro tempore of
the California Assembly,
and as a member of the
Budget Committee, my
focus is on helping
shape a state budget that
balances spending on
vital priorities such as
strengthening a social
safety net that was decimated in the Great
Recession, while pro-actively paying
down our states debts and addressing longterm fiscal liabilities. In the coming
months, we will hold dozens of hearings
resulting in eventual adoption of a roughly
$113 billion general fund state budget. I
am optimistic that the Legislature and the
governor are on track for a fifth consecutive on-time balanced budget.
As is often the case at the state Capitol,
however, we have both promise and peril.
Lets explore some of the more promising
news: Political and electoral reforms have
taken hold and are positively affecting the
way the Legislature does business. Voters
have approved a series of reforms such as
the top two primary (in which the top
two vote-getters in the primary run off in
the general election regardless of party,
resulting in more moderate lawmakers),
term limit modifications (12 years total
service instead of 14, but allowing lawmakers to serve those years in one house or
any combination therein), putting power
in the hands of citizens to oversee the
decennial redistricting process and a majority-vote budget. These reforms have combined to create a more collegial and produc-
Guest
perspective
tive body, have allowed for speedier passage of balanced budgets and have helped
promote bipartisan cooperation on key
issues such as the water bond and rainy day
fund, both of which passed with overwhelming bipartisan support.
Now for the perilous indicators (with a
few hopeful signs mixed in): Californias
antiquated tax code, with its overreliance
on the wealth of high-income earners and
capital gains from the stock market, creates tremendous volatility resulting in wild
swings in tax revenue. Fortunately, with
voter-passed Proposition 2, the rainy day
fund, we are creating reserves when revenue
spikes to help smooth out budgeting when
another recession hits. While certainly
helpful, the dangerously unpredictable
underlying revenue volatility still exists. I
look forward to working with former
Assembly speaker, now-state Sen. Bob
Hertzberg, D-Van Nuys, as he embarks on
an effort to reform our tax structure to
ensure a less volatile, more stable revenue
stream. I expect strong opposition from
those who are wedded to the status quo, but
as weve repeatedly seen large deficits
occur when the economy takes a dip, the
status quo is unacceptable. Gov. Jerry
Brown has also rightly called out the $72
billion unfunded liability in state employee retiree health care, which will be the
subject of labor negotiations and legislative scrutiny.
California also has a shockingly high
poverty rate. One in four children in
California are growing up in poverty. We
should resurrect a proposal from last session to strengthen investments in 0-3
early childhood education, and transitional
kindergarten for all 4-year olds. This pro-
posal is fiscally prudent because we know

from experience in other states that these
programs will increase high school graduation rates and reduce our prison population
down the road. Other recent investments in
K-12 education are moving California closer to the national median in per-pupil
expenditures, but more must be done if we
are to prepare a workforce for the 21st-century economy.
Finally, California has no discernible
affordable housing strategy. I believe our
newly re-elected governor has a window to
work with Assembly Speaker Toni Atkins
and our Assembly leadership in particular,
to develop a more robust response to the
loss of redevelopment funds for local governments, which were such a critical piece
of the housing mix. As weve seen rents
and housing prices again skyrocket in San
Mateo County, it is abundantly clear that
the state has been delinquent in developing
a real housing policy. As a member of the

Belmont zoning changes
Editor,
At the Jan. 6 Belmont Planning Commission
meeting, I voiced concerns about the singlefamily zoning and design review revisions
proposed by the City Council and staff. There
are 37 proposed zoning revisions, but I limited
my comments to what I consider to be three
profound and reckless changes. Each of these
zoning changes taken independently might
have limited impact. But, like the numbers of a
combination lock, when entered together these
three changes unlock the development potential of every single-family lot in Belmont.
1. Maximum Floor Area: The current cap of
3,500 square feet (or 4,500 sf in some zones)
will be eliminated and maximum home size will
be based on the size and slope of the lot. Sev-

enty-ve percent of lots will have increased

building potential.
2. Garages: Garages will not be required. Regardless of size, homes will require only a
carport. Existing garages can be converted into
living space and replaced with a single-car carport.
3. Second Units: Any lot over 5,000 square
feet will be entitled to add a second home (attached or detached) up to 1,200 square feet.
That's equivalent to a spacious twobedroom/two-bath home.
Sounds harmless? In my sampling of 40 representative lots from all Belmont districts, I
found that 75 percent of lots will have increased building potential, and most lots will
accommodate a 1,200-square-foot second unit.
The combined effect of these changes is a de

Its the year of

net neutrality
The Kansas City Star
epublicans and Democrats might

finally have found an issue on
which they can agree.
With their new majority in Congress,
GOP lawmakers may be poised to introduce legislation that prevents Internet
service providers from playing favorites
with data. So-called net neutrality has
been a goal of Democrats for a while now.
If recent reports out of Washington turn
out to be accurate, lawmakers should capitalize on the opportunity.
Net neutrality is an arcane technical
issue in many regards. In simplified form,
net neutrality is the notion that Internet
service providers Comcast, Verizon,
Time Warner, etc. should not be
allowed to create fast and slow lanes
between customers you and online
content. Customers pay for access, and
its none of the providers business what
legal websites they visit or which streaming movie service they use. All of the
bytes should be equal.
Without net neutrality, providers could
choke data from competitors sites, from
sites that dont pay them off or from sites
they just dont like. For example,
Comcast could slow down Netflix, causing movies to buffer more often and making Comcasts own movie offerings more
attractive.
The Federal Communications
Commission has been developing net
neutrality regulations over the last year
and will release them by spring. A legislative compromise is almost certain to
be preferable to FCC-imposed rules that
would wind up in a lengthy court battle.
But there are only whispers to go on
right now, not actual legislation.
Democrats especially President Barack
Obama, who wields a veto pen and said he
wants strong net neutrality rules
should not sign off on a weak deal. At a
minimum, the law should protect a free
and open Internet and should apply to
wireless carriers. People consume their
digital content on smartphones and
tablets as much as wired computers and
televisions.
Fortunately, supporters of net neutrality
have a bargaining chip. If regulations
wind up coming from the FCC, it might
classify Internet service providers as utilities. Theres a bunch of legal mumbojumbo involved, but the bottom line is
that as utilities, providers would have to
deal not just with net neutrality but also
with other burdensome rules. They might
be willing to accept strong net neutrality
if it means avoiding the rest.
Powerful political players have lined up
on both sides of the issue. Major
telecommunications and media companies
have staked out positions. So have civil
liberties and other groups. And they
arent staying quiet.
The FCC received millions of public
comments on net neutrality in 2014.
When the Sunlight Foundation studied
those comments, it found that most were
form letters generated by advocates with
deep pockets, including a shadowy
organization with ties to the Koch brothers. The Koch brothers oppose net neutrality.
The Sunlight Foundation found something else in the comments, too. When it
separated out the non-form-letter submissions, leaving only the letters from people who took the time to write something
themselves, it found that less than 1 percent opposed net neutrality.
Americans want their Internet to remain
free. Congress should give that to them
this year.

American Sniper opens with $105.3M

By Jake Coyle
NEW YORK Clint Eastwoods R-rated

Iraq War drama American Sniper opened in
January like a superhero movie in July, taking in a record $105.3 million over the
Martin Luther King Jr. four-day weekend.
The films unprecedented success obliterated forecasts and set numerous box-office
records. It easily surpassed Avatar to
become the biggest January weekend ever.
The resounding wide-release opening is
also tops for the 84-year-old Eastwood,
whose previous best weekend was the $29.5
million wide release of 2009s Gran
Torino. And it, in one weekend, gives the
Oscar best-picture race something it was
lacking: a big ol box-office hit.
American Sniper, nominated for six
Academy Awards, immediately becomes the
top grosser of the best-picture nominees.
The previous biggest hit was Wes
Andersons Grand Budapest Hotel, which
made $59.1 million in its entire run.
This was actually the third week of release
for American Sniper, which played in just
a handful of theaters for two weeks. That
slow release pattern helped stoke demand
for the film, in which Bradley Cooper stars

as Navy SEAL marksman Chris Kyle.
Its become a cultural phenomenon, said
Dan Fellman, head of domestic distribution
for Warner Bros. The movie reached an
audience thats very hard to tap into. In both
red and blue states, small and large cities,
tiny towns everywhere we went it
broke records.
Going into the weekend, optimistic predictions for American Sniper were closer
to $50 million, which still would have been
an enormous success, particularly considering how little appetite audiences have had
for movies about the wars in Iraq and
Afghanistan.
This was maybe the most underestimated
film of all time, considering that it did about
twice what estimates predicted, said Paul
Dergarabedian, senior media analyst for
box-office firm Rentrak. This just doesnt
happen.
But the film was warmly embraced by conservatives, which Fellman said was a huge
factor. The audience, which was 57 percent
male, gave it an A+ CinemaScore.
Dergarabedian said American Sniper resonated with audiences craving a celebration
of valor, courage and patriotism.
American Sniper, once pegged for
release in late 2015, was moved up to qualify for this years Oscars. After Eastwoods
other 2014 release, Jersey Boys, struggled in its June release, totaling $47 million, American Sniper a $58 million
co-production between Warner Bros. and
Village Roadshow was tossed into this
years Christmas mix.
The remarkable success of American
Sniper, which made $89.5 million over the
three-day weekend, didnt appear to hurt the
business of other releases. The Weinstein
Co. s well-reviewed animated film
Paddington opened with an estimated
$25.2 million over the four-day weekend.
The Kevin Hart, Josh Gaad comedy The
Wedding Ringer debuted with $24.5 million for Sony Pictures.
However, Michael Manns cyber-thriller
Blackhat, starring Chris Hemsworth,
flopped. Made for about $70 million by
Legendary Pictures for distributor Universal
Pictures, Blackhat bombed with just $4.4
million.
In its fourth weekend of release, the civil
rights drama Selma took in $11.5 million
on the holiday weekend that honors its protagonist, King. The film landed two Oscar
nominations on Thursday, including best
picture, but the snubbing of its star, David
Oyelowo, and director, Ava DuVernay, drew

widespread outrage.
Estimated ticket sales for Friday through
Monday at U. S. and Canadian theaters,
according to Rentrak. Where available, the
latest international numbers for Friday
through Sunday are also included. Final
domestic figures will be released Tuesday.
Top-10
1. American Sniper, $105.3 million
($6.1 million international).
2. Paddington, $25.2 million ($4 million international).
3. The Wedding Ringer, $24.5 million.
4. Taken 3, $17.4 million ($31.4 million international).
5. Selma, $11.5 million.
6. Into the Woods, $8.7 million ($7.3

7. The Imitation Game, $8.1 million
($4 million international).
8. The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five
Armies, $6 million ($6.1 million international).

Falling oil prices impacts entire economy

By Henry C. Jackson
WASHINGTON Cheap oil doesnt only

mean cheaper gas in the tank. It means that
a car dealer in Illinois is shuffling the
inventory of models hell be selling, that
more students in Wisconsin may get
school-provided iPads, that some planned
projects in a Southern California city will
get delayed, and that some expected oilfield
hiring in North Dakota and Texas may not
happen.
In ways large and small, plummeting oil
prices are now reverberating through businesses, towns, schools and family budgets,
causing confusion and changing plans.
With prices having fallen by nearly half in
just six months, the potential impact has
been sudden and wide ranging.
Im always chasing my tail, said Ron
Hicks, who has sold cars for 10 years in
Galesburg, Illinois, and overall for 38
years, and suddenly finds himself with too
many smaller fuel-efficient cars on his City
Select lot when trucks and sports cars might
sell better. I need to be smarter even than
Ive been in the past. I need to find the balance.
Fuel is a major cost item for many businesses and local governments, and the
recent changes are upending budgets that
were drafted month ago and used to plan hiring and authorize projects for 2015. For a
medium-sized city with police cars and
garbage trucks to fuel, gasoline costs can
amount to several hundred thousand dollars
annually.
But oil is also a revenue source in more
than two dozen states, especially for about a
third of them. In Alaska, where up to 90 percent of the budget is funded by oil, new Gov.
Bill Walker has ordered agency heads to
start identifying spending cuts.
This pullback caught most everyone by
surprise, Brian M. Youngberg, a senior
energy analyst for Edward Jones wrote in
analysis last week.
The stakes are especially high for transportation companies. But at Delta Airlines,
which now projects $1.7 billion in fuel savings in 2015, no adjustments are envisioned, at least in ticket prices.
When it comes lower, hang on to all of
it, Delta CEO Richard Anderson told
investors in December about likely profits.
Thats kind of our philosophy.
In states like North Dakota, Oklahoma
and Texas, which have reaped the benefits of
a domestic oil boom, the retrenchment is

beginning.
Drilling budgets are being slashed
across the board, said Ron Ness, president
of the North Dakota Petroleum Council,
which represents more than 500 companies
working in the states Bakken oil patch.
Drilling and extraction jobs that soared
from 293,000 to more than 586,000 since
2003 are now heading back down.
In Houston, the self-declared Energy
Capital of the World, the local Association
of Realtors predicts home sales will slide
between 10 and 12 percent in 2015.
A handful of housing projects being built
on the fringes of the Bakken oil patch in
North Dakota have paused or slowed down
as developers reassess.
But because of the flying pace of
growth, a slowdown actually could be
healthy, said Rob Lindberg, director of a
group that promotes business growth in
western North Dakota.
In many cities, budgets are back on the
drawing board.
In Long Beach, California, where manmade islands built to pump oil sit just off
shore, the city is deciding which capital
projects can still move forward. Oil revenue
pays for the basketball courts, pools and
other amenities on the waterfront, but there

is only $95 million on hand for $232 million in work authorized.
You ask anyone on the street, including
here in Long Beach, theyre excited that
theyre paying less at the gas pump, said
Mayor Robert Garcia. But we do rely on oil
particularly for these capital projects.
But in the West Allis-West Milwaukee
school district in Wisconsin, $16,000 in
unexpected fuel savings is accelerating an
initiative to provide iPads for all 10,000
students.
Its definitely better to be able to use that
money on textbooks and instructional
materials in classrooms rather than gasoline, said Interim Superintendent Paul
Strobel.
And a $50,000 fuel savings from the
police fleet in Rochester, Minnesota,
means a $350,000 budget shortfall suddenly got easier to navigate.
Lee Sapp, who runs a Ford dealership in
Ashland, Nebraska, said hes wondering
what the price drop will mean for his customers. Its not that simple, he said.
If a guy thinks he needs an F150 or wants
an F150, its not going to make him switch
to a Fusion, Sapp said referring to a popular Ford truck and a compact car.
U.S. seeks end to restrictions on diplomats

Oracle names
Leon Panetta to
board of directors
By Bradley Klapper
REDWOOD SHORES Oracle Corp. said

Monday it named Leon
Panetta a director, effective immediately.
The business software
developer says the addition of Panetta, who has
served as defense secretary and director of the
CIA, will expand its
board of directors to 12
Leon Panetta members.
Oracles board members serve one-year terms. Panetta, who is
76 years old, will be up for re-election at
Oracles next annual shareholder meeting in
November.
WASHINGTON American officials head

to Havana this week with fairly modest
goals of cooperation with the Cuban government, seeking an end to restrictions on
the U.S. Interests Section there so that an
embassy and symbol of the two countries new relationship can eventually be
established.
The migration and normalization talks
between the United States and Cuba are the
biggest face-to-face meetings since
Presidents Barack Obama and Raul Castro
announced their intentions last month to reestablish diplomatic ties. Leading the U.S.
delegation is Roberta Jacobson, the top
U.S. diplomat for Latin America, the most
senior American official to visit Cuba in
more than three decades.
A senior administration official said the
Obama administration has concrete if limited objectives for the discussions Wednesday
through Friday. They include American

diplomats being reaccredited in Cuba and
facing no travel restrictions, no limits on
the number of U.S. diplomats in the country,
unimpeded shipments to the U.S. mission
and free access for Cubans to the mission.
Jacobson will meet Cuban activists and
civil society representatives, as well.
How quickly the Cubans meet the requests
related to the Interests Section will help
determine when the two countries can reestablish embassies, post ambassadors in
each others capitals and restore full diplomatic relations, the official said. Reporters
were briefed on this process Monday on the
talks on condition the official not be quoted
by name.
The U.S. and Cuba havent had diplomatic
relations since 1961, shortly after Fidel
Castro seized power. Interests sections were
established in the late 1970s to boost cooperation, but never really advanced a detente
between the two countries. In the years
since, both governments have enforced
restrictions on the activity of each others

diplomats in their countries.
But changes have come quickly since
Decembers announcement of a prisoner
exchange between the U.S. and Cuba and
their promises to end the decades-long
estrangement. The Cubans last week
released 53 political prisoners. Three days
later, the U.S. significantly eased travel and
trade rules with Cuba.
Despite opposition by some American
lawmakers, particularly Republicans, a U.S.
congressional delegation was in Havana
Monday to see how they could aid the
process. Among their possible meetings
was one with President Raul Castro. The delegation is being led by Sen. Patrick Leahy
of Vermont, a key appropriator of funds for
U.S. foreign operations.
A major question that Leahy and others are
gauging is how Castros government
responds to the U.S. expansion of diplomatic and trade ties. Its a question that administration officials also readily acknowledge.

Warriors make easy work of Nuggets

By Antonio Gonzalez
OAKLAND James Michael McAdoo

signed a 10-day contract Monday morning
after getting called up from the NBA
Development League. By late afternoon, he
had teammates and fans cheering his debut
and went home with the game ball.
Thats the kind of season it has been for
the Golden State Warriors everythings
working, and everybodys contributing.
All 13 players on the active roster scored,

and the NBA-leading Warriors matched a
franchise record with their 16th consecutive
home win, whipping the Denver Nuggets
122-79 on Monday.
I told the guys after the game, Im not taking this for granted, Warriors coach Steve
Kerr said. This is so unique to have a group
pull for each other that exhibits the selflessness where, from one night to the next, somebody isnt going to get a lot of points or a lot
of shots. And it doesnt seem to bother them.
Which is what made Mondays matinee so

special.
The Warriors (33-6) dominated Denver in
such impressive fashion that everybody got
a chance to shine. Klay Thompson (22
points) and Stephen Curry (20 points and
eight assists) led the way, as usual, and the
reserves never relented in the fourth quarter.
That included McAdoo, a call-up from the
Warriors D-League affiliate in Santa Cruz,
who kept the crowd entertained and energized. He threw down a dunk and received a

Athlete of the Week
By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Remember the infamous scene from

Hoosiers in which Jimmy Chitwood is
knocking down jump shot after jump shot
on his Hickory, Indiana farm?
Thats what it looks like Serras Jimmy
Wohrer gets cooking from the outside.
Serra won two key West Catholic
Athletic League games last week, and
Wohrer was a big reason why. After the
Padres 33-32 win over Riordan last
Wednesday, the highlight of Wohrers
week was a 24-point outburst in Saturday
nights 72-63 win over Sacred Heart
Cathedral in which he hit six 3-pointers.
Because Wohrers dazzling rainbow
jumper was the Padres most dangerous
weapon in Saturdays key win, he has been
named San Mateo Daily Journal Athlete of
the Week.
Ive always loved shooting, Wohrer
said. Three-pointers, you know when
youre a little kid, you love shooting the
long shots. Ever since, Ive just kept practicing. It just came natural.
Coming off a 62-50 loss Jan. 10 to firstplace St. Francis, last weeks back-to-back
victories were critical in keeping Serra in
the thick of the WCAL race. Now a third of
the way into their league schedule, the
Padres are tied for second place with Mitty,
trailing archrival St. Francis by one game.
With one more scheduled matchup with the
Lancers set for Jan. 30 at Serra, the Padres
still have the ability to control their own
destiny in the WCAL. So, Wohrer and his
teammates are poised to stay within themselves to make a run at Serras first WCAL
championship since 2004-05.
Really, its [in our hands], if we want to
win a championship, Wohrer said. We can
control it ourselves. If we win the rest of the
games, we can win league. We dont want to
have to depend on other teams beating other
teams at the end.
Wohrers natural touch from the outside is a
product of nearly a decade of playing the
sport competitively. Now a second-year varsity starter as a senior at Serra, the Redwood
City native has been playing AAU basketball

them, 45-7.
The Packers
simply failed to
step on the
Seahawks collective necks when they had the chance,
settling for two short field goals in the
first quarter that you just knew would
come back to haunt them. That game
should have all but been over by halftime, but huge credit goes to the Seattle
defense, for twice not allowing a touchdown from inside the 1-yard line.
If Green Bay punches in those two possessions for touchdowns, the Packers
lead 24-0 at halftime and even the
Seahawks scramble late in the fourth
quarter would not have been enough. That
game should have been 27-20 for the
Packers, but Green Bay coach Mike

what it does best: suffocating the opposition in the second half. Over their last

Vonn breaks all-time World Cup wins record

CORTINA DAMPEZZO, Italy Lindsey

Vonn won a super-G Monday for her record
63rd World Cup victory and celebrated with
an embrace from boyfriend Tiger Woods.
The American broke Annemarie MoserProells 35-year-old record of 62 World Cup

could get any better than yesterday with my
entire family here but now with Tiger here
this is unbelievable, said Vonn. I said, I
cant believe you came. And he said, I told

you.
Woods did not speak with reporters.
Vonn tied the record of 62 victories when
she won a downhill here Sunday.
Im so happy to have finished the weekend with win No. 63. My family and Tiger is
here. Its a really, really special day, she
said.
Vonn faced intense media pressure to
match Moser-Proell in recent weeks.
I know its a big achievement, Vonn
said. But I have to focus on the skiing. I
cant let everyone elses expectations get
into my head. So that was my goal this

weekend, just trying to ski my best. And I
thought I did a really good job.
Moser-Proell, an Austrian great, established her record between 1970 and 1980.
Moser-Proell was skiing in the 70s and all
the young people in Austria dont know what
that record means, Fenninger said. For the
newer generation its very important that
Lindsey make history. ... Its time to have a
new record. Shes very important for us,
because in America shes a real superstar.

Sharks drilled by New Jersey Stanford drops

By Josh Dubow
SAN JOSE Mike Cammalleri scored a

tiebreaking, power-play goal late in the second period to help the New Jersey Devils beat
the San Jose Sharks 5-2 on Monday night.
Steve Bernier, Jordin Tootoo, Travis Zajac
and Jacob Josefson also scored for the
Devils, who bookended wins over Los
Angeles and San Jose around a lopsided loss
in Anaheim on what proved to be a successful
California swing.
Cory Schneider made 34 saves one game
after being knocked after getting hit in the
head by a puck.
Joe Pavelski and Matt Nieto scored for the
Sharks, who have lost five of six home
games and have already surpassed last years

total of regulation home losses with their
eighth this season. Alex Stalock made 29
saves as he set a career high in goals allowed
in a game.
The Sharks tied the game early in the second when Nieto scored on a one-timer off a
feed from Tyler Kennedy. Brent Burns set up
the goal with a good rush from the defensive
zone.
But Burns gave it back when he committed
his third minor penalty of the game later in
the period when he was called for hitting Tom
Sestito in the head.

Arizona State held off 11th-ranked Stanford
60-57 on Monday at Maples Pavilion to stay
unbeaten atop the Pac-12 standings despite
the Cardinals second-half rally.
The Sun Devils (17-1, 6-0 Pac-12)
snapped a 16-game losing streak in the
rivalry and won at Maples Pavilion for only
the second time spanning 33 chances in program history and first since March 3, 1984.
Charli Turner Thorne, in her 18th year
leading ASU, had never beaten her Hall of
Fame coach Tara VanDerveer on her old home
floor after many frustrating finishes at
Maples.
The Sun Devils had to play their swarming
defense until the very end.
Briana Roberson knocked down a 3-pointer with 23.2 seconds left as Stanford pulled
within 57-53, then Amber Orrange made an
off-balance layin the next time down to
make it a two-point game.
Sophie Brunner made two free throws with
11.1 seconds left, then Orrange drove the
floor and scored again. After Alisha Davis hit
one of two free throws, Stanford got the ball
back with 2.6 seconds remaining down
three. That came after an official review of
which team had possession, and it was ruled
a jump ball.
Orrange heaved the ball as the buzzer
sounded, and Arizona State players ran to
midcourt to celebrate.
Lili Thompson and Orrange scored 12
points each to lead Stanford (13-5, 5-1),
which lost to Arizona State for the first time
since Feb. 16, 2006, in Tempe.

Woods front tooth knocked out
CORTINA DAMPEZZO, Italy Tiger
Woods has another reason not to like cameras his agent said it cost him a tooth.
Woods made a surprise visit to Italy on
Monday to watch girlfriend Lindsey Vonn
capture her record 63rd
World Cup title. The
photo that generated all
the buzz was Woods
missing his front tooth.
The culprit, according
to his agent, was a camera.
During a crush of photographers as the awards

Tiger Woods event in Italy, a media
member with a shoulder-mounted video camera
pushed and surged toward the stage, turned and
hit Tiger Woods in the mouth, Mark Steinberg

tooth was knocked out by the incident.
Race organizers said no such incident
involving Woods was reported to them.
They added that Woods did request extra
security and a snowmobile to exit the finish area, and organizers met both requests.
Woods had been wearing a scarf with a
skeleton pattern over the lower part of his
face, sunglasses and a stocking cap. The
photo was taken when the scarf was lowered.

rollover in Foxborough not far from Gillette
Stadium shortly before 1 a.m. Monday and were
surprised to see Wilfork checking on the driver.
Hours earlier, the Patriots beat the Indianapolis

and then made sure police didnt need any

Brooks was charged with drunken driving. A phone listing for her couldnt immediately be found Monday, and it wasnt clear

When will the national
media and football fans
realize New England
Patriots wide receiver
Julian Edelman is more
Tom Brady
than a nice little story?
More than an undersized player who overcame long odds to make it in the NFL?
Because the fact is, Edelman has developed
into one of the best receivers in the league.
It took a trick play two weeks ago a
wide receiver pass for a touchdown in a 3531 win over the Baltimore Ravens in the
AFC Divisional playoff game for
Edelman to become part of the national
football conscious. Suddenly, College of
San Mateo head coach Bret Pollack,
Edelmans junior college offensive coordinator for one season, was bombarded by the
national media last week. There was an
Associated Press writer calling for comment
about Edelman, as well as a sit-down interview with ESPN. Suddenly, everyone wants
to know more about the 5-10, 200-pound
receiver who played quarterback in college.
But look at his numbers. Edelman is
more than just a novelty.

Over the last two seasons, Edelman has
become Bradys go-to
receiver. In 2013,
Edelman caught 105
passes. This season, he
nished with 92 and has
added another 17 in this
Julian Edelman years playoffs, including nine catches for 98
yards in the AFC championship game
Sunday.
And Edelman is proving to be more than
just a receiver. He had a 45-yard punt return
against the Colts Sunday and of course the
touchdown pass the previous week against
Baltimore.
Hes also averaging nearly 10 yards a
carry on 10 rushes this season.
To put it succinctly, Edelman has developed into one of the most well-rounded
offensive threats in the NFL. Not bad for an
undersized kid from Woodside High School.

Did the Patriots use deflated footballs? Scherzer, Nats

By Howard Fendrich
The NFL is investigating whether the New

England Patriots deflated footballs that were
used in their AFC championship game victory over the Indianapolis Colts.
We are looking into it, league
spokesman Brian McCarthy wrote in an
email to The Associated Press on Monday.
We do not have anything further to add at
this point.
The inquiry was first reported by the website for WTHR-TV in Indiana, citing an
unnamed source.
Well cooperate fully with whatever the
league wants us to, whatever questions they
ask, Belichick said Monday during his regular conference call with reporters.
He said he was unaware there was an issue
until Monday morning.
The Patriots have come under scrutiny
with regards to NFL rules in the past, most
infamously when they were punished for
videotaping sideline signals used by the

New York Jets during a 2007 game.
Belichick was fined $500,000, and the team
was docked $250,000 and stripped of its
2008 first-round draft pick.
According to the NFL rule book, home
teams are responsible for furnishing
playable balls at all times. Each team
brings 12 primary balls, while home teams
are required to also bring 12 backup balls.
Once the referee makes sure the footballs
are properly inflated, theyre delivered to
ball attendants provided by the home team.
The leagues game operations manual
notes: If any individual alters the footballs, or if a non-approved ball is used in
the game, the person responsible and, if
appropriate, the head coach or other club
personnel will be subject to discipline,
including but not limited to, a fine of
$25,000.
Deflating a football could change the way
it would be gripped by a player or the way it
travels through the air.
The Patriots beat the Colts 45-7 to reach

the Super Bowl. New England will play the
defending champion Seattle Seahawks for
the NFL title at Glendale, Arizona, on Feb. 1.
In Sunday nights lopsided AFC finale,
quarterback Tom Brady threw for three
touchdowns and running back LeGarrette
Blount gained 148 yards while scoring three
touchdowns to send New England to its
sixth Super Bowl in the past 14 years.
Colts quarterback Andrew Luck had his
worst game as a pro, completing only 12 of
33 passes for 126 yards, no touchdowns and
two interceptions.
On his regular weekly morning-aftergame appearance Monday on WEEI radio,
Brady said he wasnt aware of the report
about the leagues investigation into
whether footballs were properly inflated
against Indianapolis.
I think Ive heard it all at this point,
Brady said with a laugh.
Thats the last of my worries, he said. I
dont even respond to stuff like this.
Pitcher Yovani Gallardo was traded by the

Milwaukee Brewers to the Texas Rangers for
three players and cash Monday night.
Gallardo was 8-11 last year with a 3.51
ERA in 32 starts last season and 89-64 with
a 3.69 ERA in an eight-year career with
Milwaukee.
Infielder Luis Sardinas, and right-handers
Corey Knebel and Marcos Diplan were

Milwaukee took Gallardo in the second
round of the 2004 amateur

from the Rangers ballpark. He lives in North
Texas.

GOP divided on how to beat health care law

By Andrew Taylor
WASHINGTON Republicans running

Congress have promised to use every weapon
in their arsenal to take down President Barack
Obamas health care law.
But now some are questioning whether to
use the congressional budget process to
derail the 2010 law or save the special step
for more traditional purposes like cutting
spending or overhauling the tax code. A
potentially divisive debate between tea party
forces and GOP pragmatists looms.
At issue is an arcane process known as
budget reconciliation. Its the only filibusterproof option available to Republicans, who
control the Senate with 54 seats but must still
muster 60 votes to pass other legislation.
Senate precedents limit the number of reconciliation bills one for taxes, one for
spending and one to raise the governments
borrowing cap and so a major debate has
begun among Republicans over what to put
in it.
Hard-line conservatives want to use the
process to force a showdown with Obama
over the law.
Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, told a Heritage
Foundation gathering of conservatives last
week that Republicans

should use every procedural tool available,
including reconciliation,
to repeal Obamacare with
51 votes in the Senate.
Thats a view shared by
conservative groups like
the Senate Conservatives
Fund and Heritage Action,
Ted Cruz
and prominent voices on
the right like Erick Erickson, publisher of
the Redstate.com conservative blog.
Its time to stop pussy-footing around
with excuses and half-assed attempts at partial repeal, and get serious, Erickson wrote
last week. Make Obama veto the repeal of
his signature legislation.
Pragmatic voices in the GOP, however, say
the certainty of an Obama veto effectively
means that Republicans would be wasting the
opportunity given them under special budget
rules that limit debate and can guarantee
delivery of legislation to Obama.
Id like to get tax reform done. I think we
could do infrastructure in that process. And I
think thats something that could actually get
enacted, said Sen. John Thune, R-S.D.,
chairman of the Senate Commerce committee. I mean were going to have a lot of
Obamacare votes one way or the other.
A reconciliation measure can only advance after

the House and Senate have
agreed upon a measure
called a budget resolution,
which sets broad parameters for spending, revenues and curbs to benefit
programs such as Medicare
Barack Obama and Medicaid.
Democrats used reconciliation to help pass Obamas health care
plan. And Bill Clinton and Republicans controlling Congress used it in 1997 to advance
a balanced budget bill. Republicans, led by
Newt Gingrich in 1995, tried to use it to pass
a bitterly partisan 1995 balanced budget plan
Clinton vetoed. Even though their budget
resolution is likely to project a balanced federal ledger over the coming 10 years,
Republicans are signaling theyre not willing to do a party-line replay of their 1995
experience.
The only way to do entitlement eligibility changes is on a bipartisan basis, Senate
Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky.,
said Thursday at a news conference at a GOP
issues retreat in Hershey, Pa. We do not
intend to be offering unilateral, one partyonly entitlement eligibility changes.
Republicans devoted a session at the retreat
to the topic of reconciliation. A decision on

what to do with it appears a ways off.
At some point well decide if were going
to have reconciliation and if we do, well
make some decision much later on, House
Speaker John Boehner told reporters last
week.
The view of some pragmatists is that reconciliation should be used to get a result that
might get signed into law or as leverage to
make Obama more uncomfortable than he
would be in vetoing an Obamacare repeal
measure. And some lawmakers think that an
upcoming Supreme Court ruling could unravel much of the law, making them wary of
wasting reconciliation on the health care law.
It should be things like that that actually
improve the long-term fiscal stability of the
country and maybe provide us some revenues
for things where we can agree, like infrastructure, said Rep. Tom Cole, R-Okla.
A telling episode last fall illustrates the
passion over the issue.
McConnell told Fox News that repealing
Obamas health care plan would take 60
votes in the Senate .... and it would take a
presidential signature. This sparked a minieruption on the right that prompted
McConnells office to release a statement
promising to use budget reconciliation to
repeal the law.
Boys circumcision spurs legal battle, protests

By Matt Sedensky
BOYNTON BEACH, Fla. An estranged

Florida couples fight over whether to circumcise their son has become a rallying cry
for those who denounce the procedure as barbaric.
The dispute between Heather Hironimus,
the mother opposing circumcision, and
Dennis Nebus, the father favoring it, has
sparked a prolonged court battle, protests
and the rapt attention of a movement of selfproclaimed intactivists.
Judges have ruled in favor of the father,
meaning the surgery is likely to happen, but
the possible closure of the legal chapter has
done little to mute the cases most passionate
followers. Though many still choose to
remove their sons foreskins at the suggestion of a doctor, for religious or cultural reasons, or out of habit, opponents have been
bolstered by the overall waning popularity
of circumcision, and the fact this fight has
gone on so long the boy at its center is now
4 years old.
I couldnt speak when I
was cut, but I can speak
now,
said Thomas
Frederiksen, a 39-year-old
machinist who traveled
from Orlando to protest,
wearing a red beret and I
(Heart) My Foreskin Tshirt
and
speaking
Heather
breathlessly about the
Hironimus
issue.
Volumes of court filings tell the story:
Hironimus and Nebus had a six-month relationship that resulted in a pregnancy, the
birth of a boy named Chase, and a fight over
nearly everything since. Nebus sued to prove
his paternity and to get partial custody of the
boy and the couple whittled out a parenting
plan outlining everything from his surname
to his legal address, to whom he calls
mommy or daddy and, notably, what
becomes of his penis.
In that document, the circumcision of the
child was agreed to by both parents. When it
came time to schedule the procedure, though,

the mother resisted, having researched the
subject further. The matter wound its way
through circuit court, which ruled in Nebus
favor, then to the Fourth District Court of
Appeal, which refused to overturn the lower
courts ruling. Hironimus could ask for a
rehearing in the appellate court, but has made
no further legal filings.
Just the normal thing to do, the father
said of circumcision, according to the court
files. To me, its not worth it to put my
sons life at risk for a cosmetic procedure,
the mother said.
The parents entered an agreement on Dec.
24 to not talk to the press and to avoid any
other campaigns or actions that might
exploit the child. There is no indication in
the court documents the circumcision is
being done for religious reasons. The attorney that had represented the mother, who
lives in Boynton Beach, is no longer being
retained and has not been replaced, the
lawyers office said. The attorney for the
father, who lives in Boca Raton, did not
respond to requests for comment.

Though circumcision rates have fallen in
the U.S., a majority of boys still undergo the
removal of their foreskin. A 2013 report
from the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention found 58.3 percent of newborn
boys were circumcised in 2010, down from
64.5 percent in 1979. (The data excluded
babies who were circumcised after leaving
the hospital many Jewish boys have the
procedure during a ceremony called a bris,
eight days after birth.) Meantime, a bubbling
anti-circumcision movement has grown.
They have made the boy at the center of
this case their cause celebre, as evidenced by
one of several small sidewalk protests here
featuring signs including Let Chase Keep
His Foreskin, Dont Cut Chases Penis,
Dont You Dare Circumcise Chase! and
Ethics 101: No Disease, No Consent, No
Circumcision. Some passing motorists
honked or gave gestures of support; some
looked puzzled or shouted Whos Chase?

Struggles highlight challenges of inmate care

By Adam Geller
Months after he landed in Floridas

Manatee County Jail, Jovon Fraziers pleas
for treatment of intense pain in his left
shoulder were met mostly with Tylenol.
I need to see a doctor! he wrote on his
eighth request form. I done put a lot of sick
calls in & yall keep sending me back and
aint tell me nothing.
Four months later, after Fraziers 13th
request resulted in hospitalization and doctors diagnosed bone cancer, his arm was
amputated, according to a lawsuit by his
family.
But the cancer spread. Frazier died in 2011
at age 21, months after his release.
As an inmate, his medical care had been
managed not by the county sheriffs office
that runs the jail, but by a private company
under contract.
That company, Corizon Health Inc., is
under growing pressure after losing five
state prison contracts, downgrades by ana-
lysts and increasing scrutiny of its care of

inmates held by some of its largest customers, including New York City. Corizon,
responsible for 345,000 inmates in 27
states, is the countrys biggest for-profit
correctional health provider, but is just one
of many firms vying for billions of public
dollars spent on prisoner care.
For-profit prison care raises questions
about ceding public responsibilities to private companies. It turns, though, on a
thornier issue: How do you ensure care of
people that society mostly would prefer not
to think about?
Inmates are still human beings. I think
some people forget that, I really do. Theyre
somebodys child, said Shirley Jenkins,
Fraziers grandmother.
States spend $8 billion a year on prison
health care, a fifth of their corrections budgets, according to The Pew Charitable Trusts
and the MacArthur Foundation. Local jails
spend millions more.
Some critics fault the idea of privatizing
the job.
The problem is a structure that creates
incentives to cut corners and deny care to

powerless people that have no other
options, said David Fathi, director of the
American Civil Liberties Unions National
Prison Project.
Others say deficiencies with prison care
go beyond whether it is privatized.
I dont have a great love for private
health care ... but I dont think that theyre
the source of the problem, said Dr. Marc
Stern, former health services director for
Washington states prisons. Stern, who
once worked for a Corizon predecessor in
New York state, issued a 2012 report criticizing the companys care of Idaho prison
inmates while serving as a court-appointed
expert.
I think the problem is how much money
and effort we are willing to put into correctional health care, Stern said.
Some critics, though, say Corizon is
notably problematic.
We get letters from prisoners about medical care not being provided and the list is
endless. And its increased tremendously
since Corizon took over, said Randall
Berg, executive director of the Florida

Justice Institute, who represents inmates
petitioning for care.
Corizon said it strives to provide quality
care.
We are always troubled by any questions
on the care provided to our patients and
view this as an opportunity to reconfirm our
commitment to operational ethics and professionalism, company spokeswoman
Susan Morgenstern said in a written statement. The company declined to answer questions.
Corizons struggles are widespread.
Its care of the 11,000 inmates at New York
Citys Rikers Island is under comprehensive review by officials, who say they are
concerned about problems including at least
16 deaths since 2009.
Arizona hired Corizon last year to replace
Wexford Health Sources Inc. after its care
came under fire. But an advocacy group
warned that if anything, things have gotten worse in state prisons. Arizona and the
ACLU recently reached a settlement calling
for more monitoring of inmate care.
Three more probable Fight threatens thousands of

measles cases diagnosed Californians health coverage
SAN DIEGO Public health authorities

in San Diego say they have identified three
probable cases of measles amid a wider
outbreak of the disease.
As with confirmed cases, the cases
announced Monday involved people who
traveled to Disneyland last month.
San Diego Countys Health and Human
Services Agency says two have recovered
while one is still ill and being kept at home.
None had been vaccinated.

The agency expects to have the results of
confirmatory blood tests this week.
Several dozen people nearly all from
Southern California have contracted the
disease either during a mid-December visit
to the Orange County theme park or after
coming into contact with someone who
went there.
The virus spreads easily by air. Symptoms
include fever and a blotchy body rash.
SAN FRANCISCO A contract dispute

between health insurance provider Blue Shield
of California and the Sutter Health network of
doctors and hospitals is threatening to force
nearly 280,000 consumers in Northern and
Central California to find new doctors.
Blue Shield notified more than 139,000
customers last week that they should be prepared to leave the Sutter Health network, the
San Francisco Chronicle reported Monday.
An additional 140,000 customers are expected to receive the same warning later this
month.
At issue is the contract between Sutter and
Blue Shield. The last contract expired Dec. 31,
and Sutter says Blue Shield is proposing to cut
payments to the health care provider substantially.
Unfortunately, this large and very powerful health insurance company continues to
demand substantial cuts in reimbursements

that would have a devastating impact on
Sutter Healths ability to meet our patients
needs, said Sutter spokesman Bill Gleeson.
Blue Shield says Sutter charges 18 to 30
percent more than other providers.
We cant keep paying at that level and
increasing that amount, Paul Markovich,
Blue Shields president and chief executive,
said at a meeting of the Chronicles editorial
board Wednesday.
Some people would have to find new doctors and hospitals by April while others would
have until June, the Chronicle reported. Sutter
Health operates 23 hospitals in Northern
California.
I dont want another doctor, and theres no
reason I should have to have another doctor,
said Stephen Lawton, of Hercules, who has
been seeing the same physician since 1976.
While the whales fight it out, all of us little
minnows get squished.

MARINA
and an approximate three-quarters of a
mile addition to the Bay Trail will need
the financial support of retail and housing, according to the application.
The application said Foster City
Marina Center seeks to create a unique
Bayside destination while protecting and
conserving sensitive natural resources
such as the adjacent wetland. The project
would provide recreational opportunities
as well as an affordable housing component.
While five other attempts to create
whats called for in the citys master plan
have failed, property owner Sam Runco
is taking on the challenge of securing a
litany of environmental permits from 11
different agencies and attempting to win
over a community thats actively against
more housing.
The developer did not return multiple
requests for comment.
Councilman Herb Perez said the citys
founder planned for a marina that would
serve as a public benefit and pragmatically, any developer will need to find means
to financially support one.
I think theres no doubt that if you
want a marina, if you want the economics
of it to work, its going to have to come
with something, Perez said. Thats the
challenge. What is the right amount of
commercial space, if any, and then what,
if any, housing would the community tolerate?
Although the citys Master Plan sup-
PARKS
and [contributes] to the overall health,
relaxation and enjoyment of our citizens.
The largest proposed expenses are to
create and revamp two of the citys
most extensive parks. Updates to the
Central Park Master Plan are well
underway with the department estimating spending $36 million on improvements. The department estimates
spending more than $35 million to
develop a master plan and construct the
Bay Meadows Community Park, created as part of the redevelopment of the
old race track off Highway 101, according to the report.
Im very pleased with our capital
improvement plan. I think its a step in
the right direction not only to maintain the wonderful parks we have, but
to be forward thinking and investing in
our parks for future generations, said
Councilman David Lim.
ports a marina, the housing request

requires a general plan change and therefore needs the City Councils approval,
said Community Development Director
Curtis Banks.
Citizens group
With 826 housing units in the city
either already approved or under construction, community members have
shown up at various council meetings in
full force over the last year to squelch the
shopping center redevelopment proposals.
Most recently, the newly-formed
Foster City Residents for Responsible
Development argued against the citys
proposed housing element, a state document outlining a citys ability to support
projected growth and affordable housing
needs through 2023.
Since the communitys temperament
has leaned in opposition to more housing since the marina proposal came to
the council in April, Perez said officials
felt its important to bring the developers in for another study session.
Community outreach
Vice Mayor Gary Pollard and Perez said
theyre sensitive to residents concerns
and heard the developers have conducted
some community outreach.
Pollard said each housing development
proposal brings out different residents
and the marina project may not illicit
concerns from as many neighbors as the
shopping center proposals did.
While against banning more housing
developments, Pollard said hes leaning
toward waiting to see what impacts the
Park in-lieu fees

The city is also aiming to update its
park-in-lieu fees to keep with ination
and the increasing cost of land. For new
developments or subdivisions that cannot contribute adequate open space or
parks, the city is considering increasing
the value of an acre of land from about
$3.17 million to $3.57 million, according to a department memo.
I think park-in-lieu fees are an integral part of funding our park system and I
think its well known any time youre
investing in our city, either developments or projects the investment in
the overall health of our city is important, Lim said. We want to make sure it
keeps pace with cost of living ination
and all those things.
The city strives to dedicate two acres of
parkland per 1,000 residents and anticipates receiving approximately $9 million from park impact fees between
2014-2020, according to the city.
If the impact fees are updated, new single-family homes would contribute
$19,105, housing developments with
two to four units would pay $19,392 per

already approved projects may have

before signing off on more units.
Councilman Steve Okamoto said the
entitlement and environmental permitting process is anticipated to be lengthy.
Okamoto said hes concerned about the
proposal to phase construction with the
commercial and housing portion being
built before the marina. Similar to other
housing proposals, Okamoto said certain impacts must be addressed.
Theres two issues for me, one is to be
sure that permits to build the marina are
secured before he starts building the commercial building and the second is to
ensure that the overcrowding of schools
is being handled before I would approve
any further housing, Okamoto said.
Mayor Art Kiesel said he, like many
residents were weary of redeveloping the
shopping centers however, the marina is
on the other side of town and developing
one wouldnt take away existing retail.
Traffic remains a concern as the city is
bordered by the prime intersection of
State Route 92 and Highway 101 and new
development may exacerbate the problem, Kiesel said.
Perez said residents concerns are paramount and property owners must work
with the community if they want to proceed with new developments.
Any development that has any housing or impact to traffic is going to have
to be approved by the residents. And
based upon the [shopping center redevelopment proposal] meetings, the answer
is no and thats the hard reality, Perez
said. But the economics of development, development needs to be vertical
and, in this climate, it needs to be mixed
use.

units would pay $13,882 per unit and
mobile homes would be charged
$27,798, according to the memo.

The Parks and Recreation Commission
approved the ve-year Capital
Improvement Plan at a meeting Jan. 7
and the proposal will head to the City
Council during a special study session
yet to be scheduled.
Although adjustments to impact fees
are typical, Freschet said taking a broad
look at the citys recreational needs to
keep pace with growth is vital to maintaining a quality of life.
As more developments are built and
our population increases, so does the
demand for open space, Freschet said.
Part of the value in San Mateo is we
have beautiful parks that meet a variety
of different needs, so if developers arent
adding sufcient recreational spaces to
their new housing or mixed-use developments, they need to contribute sufcient
funds to allow us to improve and increase
our parks amenities in order to meet the
growing demand.

CIRCUMCISION
Jonathan Friedman, 27, who organized the demonstration as part of his Saving Chase campaign, traveled from
Chicago for the event and makes anti-circumcision advocacy the focus of his life. He wore a Children Never Forget
Trauma T-shirt and said he became vocal on the issue when
he realized the harm of his own circumcision, which he
blames for bleeding, chafing and painful erections.
What has driven supporters to his side, Friedman says, is
the age of the boy in this case.
People are not OK with a 4-year-old boy being circumcised a conscious, articulate boy. Thats just not OK,
Friedman said. Not everyone is against circumcisions, but
I think everyone is against a 4-year-olds circumcision.
Last month, the CDC released a draft of long-awaited federal guidelines on circumcision, stopping short of telling
parents they should choose the procedure, but saying medical evidence shows benefits clearly outweigh risks. It can
lower a males risk of sexually transmitted diseases, penile
cancer and even urinary tract infections, the CDC said,
potential benefits of which the protesters expressed serious
doubt.
Gathered quietly near the office of a pediatric urologist
who examined the boy and who may be chosen for the surgery, they said the circumcision should be put off until
adulthood, when the patient could decide for himself. To
those who view the procedure as minor, they gave a list of
reasons they believe shows it is not from loss of sensation to unseen psychological damage.
They think its just a little snip and its not, said
Jennifer Blanchard, 34, of Miami. Its a big deal.

LOCAL
SCHOOL
The citys Planning Division finds
that the proposed school for 400 students to be built at 535 Old County
Road does not conform with the citys
general plan, which dictates the .82acre property be used for housing or
commercial uses.
Tuesday night, the Planning
Commission is set to vote on whether
to follow Principal Planner Lisa
Porass recommendation to find the
school plan does not conform with
city zoning laws. The vote, however,
is only advisory which means the
district can build on the land without
the commissions or City Councils
approval.
But councilmen Mark Olbert and
Matt Grocott hope the district will
hold off on its plans for the Old
County Road site to find a better location for the school elsewhere in the
city.
Its an uncomfortable site for the
city. They picked the worst location
KING
and faith-based organizations, students and others gathered outside the
downtown San Mateo Caltrain station
to honor those recognized as part of
the 16th annual event.
The Rev. Mary Frazier, of East Palo
Alto, accepted the honor of being
named the events honorary chairperson. Frazier most notably founded the
Bread of Life Ministry of East Palo
Alto, which works to serve the hungry
and underprivileged residents of San
Mateo County.
State Sen. Jerry Hill, D-San Mateo,
Assemblyman Kevin Mullin, D-South
San Francisco, San Mateo Mayor
Maureen Freschet and San Mateo
County Supervisor Carole Groom
awarded Frazier with a plaque, and
thanked her for the many years of service she had offered to the community.
I look forward to continuing doing
work toward the dream he had, Frazier
said of Dr. King. And to follow the
instructions he gave us for his vision
The event also featured the final
Freedom Train across the Bay Area
Peninsula, commemorating the 50th
anniversary of Dr. Kings historic
march from Selma to Montgomery,
Alabama.
Some of those in attendance at the
San Mateo event took Caltrain from
THE DAILY JOURNAL
for a school. Wed like to help them

find a better site, Olbert said.
The area is set for some major developments, including the San Carlos
Transit Village, and a new school will
add too much traffic, said Grocott.
A school is not a good fit for the
property, he said.
The trouble is that the district has
already shelled out $3.4 million to buy
the property bounded by Holly Street
near El Camino Real near the Caltrain
station, he said.
Part of the complexity is that
theyve closed on the property.
Theyve dug in so deep into the project
already by putting money down on it,
Grocott said. A school is not a good
fit for the spot.
The school will also not serve San
Carlos primarily but rather draw students from throughout the district, he
said. The expectation that those students will take the train to get to San
Carlos, however, is unfounded, he
said.
Neighbors are also worried students
will eventually take over Laureola Park
and a petition has been circulated,
signed by 500 people, to encourage
the school district to look elsewhere
to build the magnet school.

The district is seeking two new locations for facilities because of enrollment growth. In addition to the San
Carlos site, district officials are also
exploring another one in Menlo Park,
at the south end of the district. The
proposal will still have to clear some
environmental hurdles mandated by
the California Environmental Quality
Act.
The school district will need to
undergo a CEQA process prior to any
development of the site, which will
involve a study of the impact of the
project and include opportunities for
community input. The district will be
focusing first on the development of
the East Menlo Park site as the district
enrollment growth will have greater
initial impact in the southern part of
the district, Lianides wrote in an
email to the Daily Journal.
the downtown station into San

Francisco, where they joined with others participating in a larger celebration of Dr. Kings life.
Activists planned rallies throughout
the Bay Area over the course of the holiday weekend, in an effort to show solidarity with civil unrest surrounding
the deaths of Michael Brown in
Ferguson, Missouri and Eric Garner in
Staten Island, New York.
Students from Hillsdale High School
in San Mateo and Capuchino High
School in San Bruno wore shirts that
read Black Lives Matter, the slogan
under which many activists have rallied to protest.
Adesia Cotton wore a Black Lives
Matter shirt while reading an original
piece of poetry to the crowd.
Lets expand on the dream, by living by the same principles as the late
Dr. King, recited Cotton from the last
stanza of her poem.
Cotton, a senior at Hillsdale High
School, won the 32nd annual North
Central Neighborhoods MLK Essay &
Poetry/Art Contest for her poetry.
She took home the $150 first-place
prize, which was awarded Saturday at a
ceremony hosted at the King
Recreation Center in San Mateo.
She said she plans to use the money
for school materials.
San Mateo Union High School
Districts Black Parents Association
also received an award at the event for
their work in advancing civil rights
across San Mateo County. The institution promotes education services for
local African-American students, and
raises money for students who plan to
attend college.
Cindy Shusterman, an English
teacher at South San Francisco High
School, accepted the Dorothy
Boyajian Honored Teacher Award, for
her service in promoting equality to
her students.
Shusterman, who co-sponsors the
high schools Gay Straight Alliance,
spoke out against bullying, and promoted a message of inclusion during
her award acceptance speech.
What Dr. King fought for was what I
was fighting for . . . basic human
rights, said Shusterman. Its up to us
to carry on his legacy.
The event wound down with the
group gathering together to sing Lift
Up Every Voice and Sing, as well as
We Shall Overcome. The two songs
were part of the soundtrack to the civil
rights movement, spearheaded by Dr.
King.
Betsy Woodward, former minister of
Christian Education at Congregational
Church of San Mateo, praised the
event and the role it plays in bringing
the local community together.
This is a good way for us to show
our unity, said Woodward.
