Affordable housing at Bay Meadows OK’d

Long-planned below-market-rate development gains approval in San Mateo
By Samantha Weigel
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
In an era when land prices are at a
premium and affordable housing is
scarce, San Mateo officials were
thrilled to put the finishing touches on
plans to construct an entirely below-
market-rate complex in the city’s
newest transit-oriented community.
A collaboration between the city and
the nonprofit Bridge Housing will
bring 68 new homes for low-income
earners to Bay Meadows, the 160-acre
mixed-use site at the former horse race
track abutting the Caltrain line.
The homes will be offered to those
making some of the lowest incomes in
the area, with a dozen of the units are
set aside for veterans and another four
for families facing homelessness, said
Smitha Seshadri, senior vice president
of development with Bridge.
“This is a tremendous partnership
and we really couldn’t do it without
government entities and local jurisdic-
tions prioritizing affordable housing,”
Seshadri said. “We’re in the business
of building affordable housing and
keeping it affordable. So it’s really
helpful when cities actually identify

Foster City proceeds with rec center redesign
City Council seeks options for 21-acre park and community center
By Samantha Weigel
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Foster City is looking toward the future as
it aims to improve its premier nearly 21-
acre park and construct a new community
center that reflects the Bayfront city’s
changing demographics. 
The City Council unanimously agreed to
hire a consultant that will offer three
options for the park and a replacement for
its decades-old recreation center. While an
initial step, it was notable progress as the
council last year had opted to postpone the
discussion citing millions of dollars in
other pressing infrastructure projects in the
works. The $300,000 allocation will allow
staff to hire a design team and incorporate

The project was prompted in part because
the current 1974 recreation center is in need
of significant repairs and no longer meets
the needs of the current community, Liu
said. But aside from just considering the
center, the council opted to take a more
comprehensive look at Leo J. Ryan Park and
its 21 acres lining the lagoon off Hillsdale
Boulevard.  faced with spending $70 million to raise its
“The scope is really going to be a multi-
purpose, multi-use facility in Leo Ryan
Park, but what we want the consultant to do
is also provide some conceptuals for the
rest of the park that would help create a des-
tination,” Liu said. “We want to create a
space, a public place for the community to
come together.”
The goal isn’t to significantly change the
current character of the park and Liu noted
open space is a priority, as well as keeping

Health officials push for flu shots
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
With a nasty bug going around and a spike
in local emergency room visits this winter,
San Mateo County health officials say it’s
not too late to get a flu shot.
The Health System is encouraging people
six months and older to get vaccinated as
soon as possible. Even though it’s late in
the season, flu activity is increasing in San
Mateo County and there’s still time for peo-
ple to benefit from a shot, according to the
Health System.
“We are seeing increased flu activity in
emergency departments throughout the
county,” Dr. David Chang, the county’s
interim communicable disease controller,
said in a statement. “Many of those patients
were not vaccinated. Getting the flu vaccine
now is still the best way to protect yourself
and your family.”
Because the shot takes two weeks to
become fully effective, officials are urging
people to act as soon as possible. The shot

“From the parks and recreation profes-

make illness milder if someone does get
sick. Getting vaccinated is particularly
important for pregnant women, children
younger than 5, adults 65 and older, and
those with chronic medical conditions such
as heart disease, asthma and diabetes,
according to the Health System.
With the bug going around, people are
encouraged to address the illness early and
look out for symptoms such as fever, cough,
sore throat, runny or stuff nose, muscle or
body aches, headaches and fatigue. In addi-
tion to getting the vaccine, people can take
preventative measure to curb the flu from
spreading. People should cover coughs and
sneezes with a tissue, avoid touching their
eyes, nose and mouth; wash hands thor-
oughly and often; and stay at home when
sick. 
Visit vaccinefinder.org to find a flu vac-

more information about recent flu activity
in the county and tips to fight it.
The project would likely create a more
flexible space that can be used for various
purposes, while maintaining popular class-
es and after-school programs. It could
include a place for people to dine by the
water, and would likely be open for rentals
or professional and community events, she
said. The city is also speaking with officials
from Hillbarn Theatre regarding a potential
partnership at the site. The consultants are
expected to provide a variety of options for

Revised suit faults Google for
asking hires about prior pay
By Ryan Nakashima
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO — A revised
gender-pay lawsuit seeking class-
action status against Google
faults the search giant for asking
new hires about their prior salary,
a practice now banned in
California.
The suit, filed Wednesday, also
adds a fourth complainant, a pre-
school teacher with a master’s
degree. The four women allege
they were underpaid by Google
compared with their male counter-
parts.
The suit, which is led by lawyer
James Finberg of San Francisco-
based Altshuler Berzon, argues
that Google’s use of prior com-
pensation to set starting pay for
employees results in men receiv-
ing higher starting salaries and
better career tracks. Because the
company also sets job classifica-
tion levels relative to prior pay,
newly hired women will consis-
tently make less than men over
time, the suit says.
“Google’s under-levelling of
women not only resulted in
Google paying them lower base
salaries than if they had been
properly levelled, but also result-
ed in Google paying them smaller
bonuses and fewer stock units and
options than if Google had placed
them in the proper level,” the law-
suit says.
The suit was refiled after being
dismissed last month for defining
the class of affected workers too
broadly.

Storm slaps South with most
snow in nearly three decades
By Russ Bynum
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAVANNAH, Ga. — A brutal winter
storm smacked the coastal Southeast
with a rare blast of snow and ice
Wednesday, hitting parts of Florida,
Georgia and South Carolina with their
heaviest snowfall in nearly three
decades.
Forecasters warned that the same
system could soon strengthen into a
“bomb cyclone” as it rolls up the East
Coast, bringing hurricane-force
winds, coastal flooding and up to a
foot of snow.
At least 17 deaths were blamed on
dangerously cold temperatures that for
days have gripped wide swaths of the
U.S. from Texas to New England.
A winter storm warning extended
from the Gulf Coast of Florida’s “Big
Bend” region all the way up the
Atlantic coast. Forecasters said hurri-
cane-force winds blowing offshore on
Thursday could generate 24-foot (7-
meter) seas.
Schools in the Southeast called off
classes just months after being shut
down because of hurricane threats, and
police urged drivers to stay off the
roads in a region little accustomed to
the kind of winter woes common to the
Northeast.
In Savannah, snow blanketed the
city’s lush downtown squares and col-
lected on branches of burly oaks for
the first time in nearly eight years.
William Shaw, a Savannah native, used
baby steps to shuffle along a frozen

road from his home to the post office.
“It almost seems the town is deserted
just like in the last hurricane,” said
Shaw, 65. “There’s no one on the
street. It’s got a little eerie feeling.”
Dump trucks spread sand on major
streets in Savannah ahead of the storm
and police closed several bridges,
overpasses and a major causeway
because of ice.
By the time the morning’s dreary
sleet and rain turned to fluffy snow,
Savannah came out to play. Families
with children flocked to Forsyth Park
near the downtown historic district for
snowball fights. The National Weather
Service recorded 1.2 inches (3 cen-
timeters) of snow — Savannah’s first
measurable snowfall since February
2010 and the first that exceeded an
inch (2.5 centimeters) in 28 years.
Across the Georgia-South Carolina
line in Charleston, the weather service
reported 5 inches (12.7 centimeters) as
the snow was winding down at 5 p.m.
That’s the most snowfall in
Charleston since December 1989, and
plenty for Chris Monoc’s sons, ages 4
and 2, to go sledding outside their
home near the city’s iconic Ravenel
Bridge.
“They probably will be teenagers
the next time something like this hap-
pens, and that’s kind of sad,” Monoc
said. “But we’ll enjoy it while it is
here.”

Thursday. Interstate 95 was nearly an
icy parking lot for almost all of its
200 miles (322 kilometers) in South
Carolina. Troopers couldn’t keep up
with the number of reported wrecks
which numbered in the hundreds.
In Tallahassee, Florida, Michigan
transplant Laura Donaven built a
snowman 6 inches (15 centimeters)
tall. The city tweeted that snow fell
there for the first time in 28 years.
“I made a snowball and threw it at my
dad,” said Donaven, a 41-year-old hair
salon owner.
The weather service said the winter
storm will probably intensify into a
“bomb cyclone” that could dump more
than 8 inches (20 centimeters) of snow
on the Boston area on Thursday and at
least half a foot (15 centimeters) of
snow in the New York City region.
Meteorologists have been using the
term “bomb” for storms for decades,
but the phrase went viral on social
media on Wednesday. A storm is a
bomb — or bombogensis happens —
when it drops 24 millibars of pressure
in 24 hours. This storm looks like it
will intensify twice that rate, said Bob
Oravec, lead forecaster at the National
Weather Service’s Weather Prediction
Center.
Blizzard warnings were issued from
Rhode Island to Maine. Oravec said he
expects they could be extended as far
south as parts of New York.
“It’s sort of akin to a hurricane trav-
eling up the coast,” says Ryan Maue, a
meteorologist at the private firm
Weather.US.

California: Hardly
any snow but not in
drought again, yet
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
PHILLIPS STATION — The grassy brown Sierra meadow
where California’s water managers gave the results of the
winter’s first manual snowpack measurements Wednesday
told the story — the drought-prone state is off to another
unusually dry start in its vital winter rain and snow season.
“We would like to have had more snow,” Grant Davis, head
of California’s Department of Water Resources, told news
crews gathered in this mountain field, bare of all but a few
crusty dots of old snow.
“It’s early,” Davis said. “We’re obviously hopeful there
will be more snow the next time we come out here.”
He spoke after Frank Gehrke, head of the state’s snow sur-
vey team, stuck a metal pole into one of the few patches of
snow at the site, measuring just over an inch (2.5 centime-
ters), or 3 percent of normal.
Climate change increasingly is changing the mountain
snowfall equation, but historically up to 60 percent of
Californians’ water supply each year starts out as snowfall in
the Sierras. That makes the state’s manual and electronic
snowpack measurements in these mountains crucial gauges
of how much water cities and farms will get in the year ahead.
This winter, one month into the state’s peak storm sea-
son, snowpack across the Sierras stood Wednesday at 24 per-
cent of normal.
The dry spell is even more acute in Southern California,
including Los Angeles, which the National Weather Service
said this week was marking its driest 10-month period on
record. Residents there last saw significant rainfall in
February.
The dry start to the rain and snow season is raising worries
the state could be plunging right back into drought. The
scene Wednesday was remiscent of 2015, when Gov. Jerry
Brown stood in a brown, dry Sierra meadow equally bare of
snow to declare a drought emergency, including mandatory
water cutbacks by cities and towns.
Near-record rainfall last winter snapped the historic
drought, filling reservoirs and sending many rivers over
their banks.

Democrat Mendoza to take
leave during sex misconduct probe
SACRAMENTO — California state Sen. Tony Mendoza
agreed Wednesday to take a paid leave of absence during an
investigation into alleged sexual mis-
conduct, a reversal from his defiant
stance that came after nearly four hours of
arm-twisting from fellow Democrats.
“To take away any type of appearance
of impropriety or giving any type of spe-
cial influence, I have decided that I will
take a leave of absence for the month of
January to allow the investigation to
Tony Mendoza move forward,” he said after Democrats
emerged from the closed door meeting.
Mendoza didn’t say what prompted him to change his
mind from earlier Wednesday, when he declared he shouldn’t
be pushed aside for “allegedly making someone feel uncom-
fortable.”
Mendoza is accused of behaving inappropriately toward
three young women who worked for him, including by
inviting one to his home and offering another alcohol
when she was underage.
One of his former staff members filed a formal complaint
with the state alleging she was fired for reporting his
behavior, the Sacramento Bee reported Tuesday.

Mormon church president
Thomas S. Monson dies at 90
SALT LAKE CITY — Thomas S. Monson,
considered a prophet by nearly 16 million
Mormons worldwide, has
died at the age of 90 after
a nearly a decade as
church president. He
expanded the church’s
reach and its transparen-
cy and was known for
promoting humanitarian
causes despite leading a
Thomas divisive fight against
Monson gay marriage.
Monson died Tuesday
night at his home in Salt Lake City, accord-
ing to church spokesman Eric Hawkins.
Monson spent more than five decades
serving in top church leadership councils —
making him a well-known face and person-
ality to multiple generations of Mormons.
A church bishop at the age of 22, the Salt
Lake City native became the youngest
church apostle ever in 1963 at the age of 36.
He served as a counselor for three church
presidents before assuming the role of the
top leader of The Church of Jesus Christ of
Latter-day Saints in February 2008.
As president of the nearly 16 million-
member religion, Monson was considered a
prophet who led the church through revela-
tion from God in collaboration with two top
counselors and members of the Quorum of
the Twelve Apostles.
The next president was not immediately
named, but the job is expected to go to the
next longest-tenured member of the
church’s governing Quorum of the Twelve
Apostles, Russell M. Nelson, per church
protocol.
Orrin Hatch’s retirement lets him
leave at the height of his power
By Michelle L. Price
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SALT LAKE CITY — Orrin Hatch’s deci-
sion to retire from the Senate after four
decades lets the Utah Republican walk away
at the height of his power after helping to
push through an overhaul of the tax code and
persuading President Donald Trump to down-
size two national monuments.
Retirement also preserves the 83-year-
old’s legacy by allowing him to avoid a
bruising re-election battle that would have
broken his promise not to seek an eighth
term.
Hatch first won election to the Senate in
1976, when he made a case to voters that
three-term Democrat Frank Moss had been in
office too long. Hatch went on to become
one of the longest-serving senators in U.S.
history, repeatedly telling voters that his
experience made him all the more effective.
“Why would Utah give up its clout and
power,” Hatch asked during his 2000 re-elec-
tion campaign, “just because someone says
term limits are a good thing?”
Utah’s other longtime senator, Republican
Bob Bennett, who had worked across the
aisle, was ousted during a 2010 backlash
against the GOP establishment fueled by the
tea party. Two years later, Hatch overcame a
tough primary challenge and pledged that his
next six years in office would be his last.
He flexed his political muscle during the
last two years, serving as chairman of the
powerful Senate Finance Committee and
steering passage of the tax overhaul that was
signed into law in December. He also led an
effort to persuade Trump
to take the rare step of
scaling back the national
monuments, which
Utah’s Republican leaders
complained had locked up
too much land.
“Look what just hap-
pened on the monu-
Orrin Hatch ments,” Former Utah
Rep. Enid Greene
Mickelsen said Wednesday. “You can love it
or hate it, but it wouldn’t have happened
without Orrin Hatch. Simply would not have
happened.”
Trump used his announcement about the
monuments to hail Hatch as “a true fighter”
and to encourage him to run again.
Hatch’s departure from the political stage
opens the door for frequent Trump critic Mitt
Romney, who has expressed interest in
Hatch’s seat.
Romney, the former Republican presiden-
tial candidate and Massachusetts governor,
now lives in Utah, where he’s fondly regard-
ed as the man who helped turn around Salt
Lake City’s scandal-plagued 2002 Winter
Olympics. He’s also one of the most famous
and respected Mormons in the world — a big
deal in a state where 60 percent of residents
belong to The Church of Jesus Christ of
Latter-day Saints.
During the last presidential campaign,
Romney called then-candidate Trump “a
fraud” who had “neither the temperament nor
the judgment to be president.”
Hatch aligned himself with Trump despite
the real-estate mogul’s lukewarm reception
among Utah Mormons and conservatives
who place a premium on civility and were
turned off by the president’s brash demeanor,
name-calling and his comments about
women and minorities.
In 2016, Hatch endorsed Trump and later
called him “an extraordinary man” and “one
of the best I’ve served under.” By ushering
through tax reform, Hatch helped deliver the
president’s first major legislative achieve-
ment.
The tax legislation, along with his efforts
to dismantle the monuments and his flirta-
tion with another term drew a blistering edi-
torial from The Salt Lake Tribune last week.
Utah’s largest newspaper said Hatch had an
“utter lack of integrity that rises from his
unquenchable thirst for power.”
Hatch, known as a staunch conservative,
had a close friendship with the late liberal
lion Massachusetts Sen. Ted Kennedy. He
worked with the Democrat to pass the
American Disabilities Act and the Children’s
Health Insurance Program.
“If you look at the most significant human
service-related legislation in the last 40-
years, you’ll see Orrin Hatch’s name some-
how associated with it, which I think will be
a major part of his legacy,” former Utah Gov.
Mike Leavitt said Wednesday. “If a dictionary
were to define compassionate conservative,
they would cite Orrin Hatch as an example.”
Hatch, a Mormon, frequently wrote reli-
gious songs and recorded music as a way to
relax. One of his songs, “Unspoken,” went
platinum after appearing on “WOW Hits
2005,” a compilation of Christian pop
music.

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell talks to the media on Capitol Hill.
White House and congressional
leaders open talks on spending
By Andrew Taylor
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Top White House offi-
cials and congressional leaders from both
parties touched gloves Wednesday in the
Capitol to try to make progress on a stack
of unfinished Washington business, start-
ing with a hoped-for bipartisan budget deal.
The session in the office of House Speaker
Paul Ryan came with little more than two
weeks before the next threatened govern-
ment shutdown. Topping the agenda was an
effort to spare both the Pentagon and
domestic Cabinet agencies from spending
cuts. Neither White House representative,
budget director Mick Mulvaney, nor top leg-
islative strategist Marc Short, commented
on their way in.
The budget debate has been roiled by a
demand from Democrats that nondefense
programs win increases equal to those to be
awarded to the Pentagon. That was a feature
of prior budget pacts in 2013 and 2015 that
were negotiated during the tenure of former
President Barack Obama.
Now, with President Donald Trump in the
Oval Office, Republicans insist that this
idea of parity between guns and butter
belongs on the scrap heap.
“We need to set aside the arbitrary notion
that new defense spending be matched equal-
ly by new non-defense spending, ” said
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell,
R-Ky. “There is no reason why funding for
our national security and our service mem-
bers should be limited by an arbitrary polit-
ical formula that bears no relationship to
actual need.”
But unlike the recently passed tax bill and
the GOP’s failed efforts to repeal the Obama-
era health care law, the upcoming agenda
will require votes from Democrats. But
bipartisanship has been in scarce supply
NATION
REUTERS FILE PHOTO
under Trump, and heading into the session,
spokesmen for neither Ryan nor top Senate
Democrat Chuck Schumer of New York were
banking on a breakthrough.
The budget battle is but one element of a
tricky Washington matrix facing the White
House, its GOP allies, and Democratic rivals
like Schumer.
Particularly challenging is the question of
immigrants, known as Dreamers to their
advocates, who were brought to the country
illegally as children but face deportation in
March because of Trump’s decision to strip
away Obama-issued protections for them.
Democrats say they won’t go along with
any deal on the budget until Dreamers are
guaranteed protections. That has sparked
pushback from GOP leaders who have refused
to cede leverage to Democrats and insist on
dealing with politically nettlesome immi-
gration issues on a separate track.
“The president has been very clear that
this is an important issue that he wants
Congress to deal with,” Rep. Tom Graves,
R-Ga., said of immigration. “Our leader-
ship’s made it clear, and I agree with them,
that this is not something that is negotiated
as part of a spending package, but it is a
separate issue that should merit debate and
discussion aside from the spending discus-
sion.”
Less partisan is a leftover disaster aid bill
and renewal of a children’s health insurance
program that has sweeping bipartisan back-
ing.
“I hope this year can be one of bipartisan-
ship focused on improving the stock of the
middle class,” Schumer said. “We can start
on the budget, with opioids, and veterans’
health care and pensions. With children’s
health insurance and disaster aid. And we can
resolve the fate of the Dreamers, and say to
these hardworking kids that America has a
place for them, too.”
GOP’s Senate majority shrinks
with Jones sworn into office
By Kevin Freking and Kimberly Chadler
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Democrat Doug Jones
of Alabama was sworn into office
Wednesday, shrinking the Senate’s
Republican majority and leading lawmakers
of both parties to plead for more bipartisan-
ship as Congress tackles pressing issues in
advance of the 2018 midterm elections.
Vice President Mike Pence administered
the Senate’s oath of office to Jones, the first
Alabama Democrat elected to the Senate in a
quarter century, and to former Minnesota Lt.
Gov. Tina Smith, who was appointed to
replace Sen. Al Franken, who resigned amid
allegations of sexual misconduct.
Two former vice presidents, both
Democrats, were there to support the
Senate’s newest members as the GOP major-
ity narrowed to 51-49. In future party-line
votes, Republicans cannot afford more than
one defection.
Jones was escorted to the Senate chamber
by former Vice President Joseph Biden, who
had headlined Jones’ campaign kickoff
rally. Jones defeated Republican Roy Moore
in a special election rocked by allegations
of sexual misconduct against Moore.
Former Vice President Walter Mondale,
along with Sen. Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn.,
escorted Smith to the Senate floor. She
becomes the 22nd woman currently serving
in the Senate, a record.
Mondale recalled that he “went through
something like this in the good old days.”
Races for governor, state
legislature key for redistricting
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. — Buoyed by a
string of electoral victories during
President Donald Trump’s first year in
office, Democrats will wage a renewed bat-
tle this year to wrest control of Congress
from Republicans.
Yet the contests with the greatest long-
term consequences could be listed else-
where on the ballot — for governors and
state lawmakers who will shape the bound-
aries of congressional districts for the
decade to come.
Voters in two-thirds of the states will be
electing governors to new four-year terms
in 2018. Of those, 26 will be vested with
the power to approve or reject congres-
sional maps that will be redrawn after the
2020 Census.

lawmakers responsible for redistricting

In 1964, Mondale was
appointed to the United
States Senate to fill the
vacancy created when
Hubert Humphrey was
elected vice president.
Democrats voiced
hopes that the narrowing
of the GOP majority
Doug Jones would lead to more col-
laboration.
“We are moving closer and closer to pari-
ty, closer and closer to one another, and I
hope closer and closer in solving prob-
lems,” said Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Ill. “I think
that was a message of the Alabama election,
among other things. The American people
want to see us work together.”
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell,
R-Ky., said Jones will “have big shoes to
fill.” McConnell also noted that lawmakers
from both parties wanted more “comity, col-
legiality and bipartisanship.”
Jones, 63, represents one of the most
conservative states in the nation. He will be
under pressure to find some areas of agree-
ment with Republicans and has cited the
funding of infrastructure improvements as
one possible avenue.
“There are a lot of people who didn’t vote
for me, and I hope they will keep an open
mind because I am going to try to be the
best senator I can for the state to try to
move the state forward as a whole and not
just one particular group or philosophy,” he
said.
Around the nation
will be chosen in 2020, a total of 766 will
be elected to four-year terms in nearly two
dozen states where they will play a role in
approving congressional maps.
Winning a governorship ensures a polit-
ical party has at least some say in redis-
tricting.
Matching a governor with a legislature
led by the same party — as Republicans
have done in three times as many states as
Democrats — gives a party the potential to
draw favorable districts that could cement
its power for a decade.
This year is “enormously consequential
for redistricting,” said Justin Levitt, a pro-
fessor at Loyola Law School in Los
Angeles who tracks redistricting nation-
wide. “The 2018 elections will in some
cases decide — and in the rest of the cases,
tee up — who is actually in charge of draw-
ing the lines in 2020.”

President barrels into 2018 with fresh foreign fights on Twitter

By Josh Lederman and Matthew Lee
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — You thought President
Donald Trump might mellow out in 2018?
Refrain from taunting world leaders tweet by
tweet? Think again.
Trump is storming into the new year in
exceptionally aggressive fashion, picking
fresh fights on Twitter with such speed that
his aides, international partners and the pub-
lic are struggling to catch up. If he was brash
on the global stage in Year 1, the first days of
Year 2 suggest he was just warming up.
Pakistan? Liars and swindlers who enable
terrorists, the president tweeted just hours
after the world celebrated the arrival of a new
year.
The Palestinians? No more U.S. aid until
they get their act together and agree to peace
talks with Israel.
Iran? “Failing at every level,” Trump
tweeted as he declared full-throated U.S. sup-
port for protesters there opposing the gov-
ernment.
And North Korea? Leader Kim Jong Un
may have a figurative “nuclear button” on
his desk, but Trump’s is “much bigger,” the
president quipped, flippantly tossing off a
threat to launch the world’s first nuclear
strike in more than 70 years
To Trump’s supporters, and even to his
critics, it may seem business as usual. After
all, in his inaugural year Trump relentlessly
pushed presidential boundaries with
provocative declarations that often weren’t
fulfilled.
Yet for foreign nations trying anxiously to
interpret the U.S. leader, such statements can
have real-world consequences. Pakistan is
livid at Trump’s remarks, summoning the
U.S. ambassador in Islamabad to explain the
disparagement of a key U.S. security partner.
North Korea experts worry Trump’s taunting
of Pyongyang could lead the two countries to
stumble into war.
“I think he should stop. It’s dangerous. It’s
dangerous bravado,” former Vice President
Joe Biden told the Associated Press on
Tuesday.
During a visit to the U.S. Capitol, Biden
also said Trump needed to learn that it’s not a
game and that “words matter” when uttered
by the commander in chief.
The White House played down the furor.
Spokeswoman Sarah Sanders insisted
Trump wasn’t “taunting” Kim Jong Un,
merely “standing up for the people of this
country.” What would be dangerous, Sanders
said, would be for Trump to stay silent.

A woman takes part in pro-government rallies, Iran.
Pro-government
rallies held in Iran
following unrest
By Nasser Karimi and Jon Gambrell
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
TEHRAN, Iran — Tens of thousands of government sup-
porters took to the streets across Iran on Wednesday as author-
ities tried to project a sense of stability after a week of nation-
wide protests sparked deadly clashes and calls for the downfall
of the Islamic Republic.
But even as state television broadcast swooping helicopter
shots showing support among Iran’s 80 million people for its
clerically overseen government, videos emerged showing the
anti-government unrest that has swept major cities has also
spread to the countryside.
The violence has killed at least 21 people and seen hundreds
more arrested by authorities. Demonstrators’ videos corre-
sponded with Associated Press reporting from outside of Iran,
though individual activists remain unreachable and the
protests for now appear leaderless. It was not clear if new
protests were held Wednesday or if the videos showed earlier
incidents.
The past week’s protests have been the largest since the dis-
puted 2009 presidential election, which ended in bloodshed.
While many Iranians denounce the violence that has accom-
panied some demonstrations, they echo the protesters’ frus-
tration over the weak economy and official corruption.
The government “should not punish the guilty and the
innocent alike,” said Mohammad Hossein Vakili, a 20-year-
old computer science student in Tehran who has struggled to
find meaningful work and who joined in peaceful protests.
“Why should they arrest someone like me when I protest
the rise of the price of eggs?” he said.
The protests began Dec. 28 in Mashhad, Iran’s second-
largest city and a bastion for hard-liners, initially focusing on
Iran’s flagging economy and rising food prices. Now, they’ve
morphed into demands for wholesale change in Iran’s theo-
cratic government.
On Wednesday, state TV reported pro-government demon-
strations in dozens of cities and towns, including Ahvaz, the
capital of the oil-rich province of Khuzestan, the Kurdish
town of Kermanshah in the country’s west and Qom, the reli-
gious capital of Shiite Islam in Iran.
All those cities have seen protests in recent days.
The pro-government crowds included women wearing the
all-encompassing black chador, the occasional man in mili-
tary fatigues and Shiite clerics wearing black turbans identi-
fying them as descendants of the Prophet Muhammad. Some
claimed online that government employees had been instruct-
ed to take part, something Iranian media did not discuss.
The English-language Press TV broadcast Wednesday’s pro-
government rallies live, saying they sought to “protest the
violence that has taken place over the last few nights in
cities.” State TV said the demonstrations served as an “answer
to the protests,” which it blamed on “servants of the U.S.”
Among the slickly produced signs carried by supporters at
Wednesday’s pro-government rallies were ones targeting
Israel, Saudi Arabia and the U.S. Iran’s supreme leader,
Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, on Tuesday blamed the protests on
meddling by “enemies of Iran.”
Some demonstrators also held aloft pictures of U.S.
President Donald Trump with a bright red “X” through his
face. Trump has tweeted several times over the last few days in
support of the anti-government protests, comments that have
angered many Iranians given his travel ban barring them from
getting U.S. visas, as well as his comments over the nuclear
deal.

Technology, energy help stocks set records

By Marley Jay
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Big gains for
technology and health care compa-
nies helped U.S. stocks set records
again Wednesday. Rising crude and
heating oil prices also sent energy
companies higher.
Chipmakers including Nvidia and
Advanced Micro Devices made big
gains while Intel skidded following
news that its processors have a
security flaw that could slow down
computers. Energy company
Scana, which plunged after it can-
celed a $9 billion nuclear project
and started raising rates to cover its
costs, jumped after Dominion
Energy agreed to buy it for $7.9 bil-
lion in stock.
Energy companies jumped for the
second day in a row as oil prices,
already at two-and-a-half-year
highs, rose again. One reason is
that after a pipeline bombing in
Libya last month and ongoing anti-
government protests in Iran,
investors are concerned that oil
supplies will get interrupted.
“Something that’s coming back
into the market which we’ve been
missing over the last few years is
this geopolitical risk premium,”
said Nick Koutsoftas, portfolio
manager at Cohen & Steers.
Investors didn’t worry that much
about those risks in recent years
because big stockpiles of oil had
built up. Those stockpiles are
shrinking now, which has helped
oil prices but also made them more
vulnerable to surprises.
The Standard & Poor’s 500 index
rose 17.25 points, or 0.6 percent,
to 2,713.06. The Dow Jones indus-
trial average added 98.67 points, or
0.4 percent, to 24,922.68. The
Nasdaq composite climbed 58.63

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Andrew Churukian was not the
most prolific water polo goal scor-
er in the Central Coast Section
this season. He wasn’t even the
leading scorer on his own team.
But Churukian’s overall impact
on the game for the Sacred Heart
Prep water polo team — his “grav-
ity” — goes beyond simply scor-
ing goals.
Like baseball turning to more
sophisticated analysis of the game
to determine a player’s value, it
takes a more nuanced eye to see
how much Churukian, a junior hole
set, gave to the Gators this sea-
son.
“He was our third-leading scorer,
but he drew 96 ejections,” said
SHP coach Brian Kreutzkamp.
“There were games he was drawing
four or five kickouts a game. Then
you throw in the 5-meter (penalty
shots) he drew and all the extra-
man opportunities he drew for us
… He starts everything (offensive-
ly for us).”

Bison, Dukes have been on collision course

loaded programs and tricks to beat

Lipinski understands the nuances
of the sport, though. She sees the
inherent difficulty in step sequences
and spins, the kind of stuff that looks
easy — almost blase — to the casual
viewers.
The soaring jumps are what stand
out to them.

Kleytman leads
resurgence of
NDB polo team
By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
While playing in the West
Catholic Athletic League her first
two seasons with the Notre Dame-
Belmont girls’ water polo team,
Michelle Kleytman said there were
times it seemed neither the Tigers’
opponents, nor their fans, took
them seriously.
“These people probably thought
we never practiced or we’re the eas-
iest team to beat,” Kleytman said.
“But that’s not true. We gave it our
all.”
Kleytman and the Tigers proved
just how good they could be during
this, her junior, year. NDB, as part
of its transition from the WCAL to
the West Bay Athletic League, saw
the girls’ water polo team placed
into the Peninsula Athletic League
since the WBAL does not offer
girls’ water polo.
Playing in the Ocean Division,
the Tigers went on a rampage. They
went a perfect 12-0 in league play
to capture the division champi-
onship and posted an overall
record of 18-2.

pursue other interests and it was
decided Lofberg should just han-
dle the duties at all three
schools.
“That was not in the plans
(one AD overseeing three pro-
grams), as far as I know,”
Lofberg said. “It just kind of
happened toward the end of last
year.”
What started last year with the
Summit Shasta sports program
moving into a league for the first
time — the Private School
Athletic, of which Summit Prep
was already a member — has now
morphed into supporting 14
teams among three schools this
winter alone.
The biggest challenge,
Lofberg said, is a lack of school
athletic facilities. Although
Shasta is starting a campus
rebuild, which will include a
school gym, Lofberg is con-
stantly scrambling to find places
and times not only for games but
practices as well.
As Lofberg continues to juggle
the administrative duties at three
campuses, he is also trying to
ramp up the competitive level at

Land deal for Raiders’
HQ in Vegas is offered Clutch Curry drops game-winning 3
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
HENDERSON, Nev. — The Oakland
Raiders came one step closer Wednesday to
securing the land the team needs for its new
headquarters and practice facility near Las
Vegas, and at a steep discount.
Officials in suburban Henderson approved
a resolution that allows the city to move for-
ward with a direct sale of 55 acres (22
hectares) to the Raiders for more than $6
million — half the land’s appraised value.
The city is using a Nevada law that allows for
no-bid sales at under-market prices when
they are considered to be in the public inter-
est.
“This is an opportunity to take the city of
Henderson to a new level,” Assistant City
Manager Greg Blackburn said during the city
council meeting ahead of the resolution
vote. “It’s hard to put a dollar value to what
this does to help us for the future.”
The Raiders have promised that the venue
will create an estimated 250 full-time jobs
not counting players. The team will spend
about $75 million to build the complex.
The team wants to kick off its 2020 season
at a 65,000-seat domed stadium built partial-
ly with taxpayers’ money across the freeway
from the Las Vegas Strip. The team in May
paid $77.5 million for the 62-acre (25-
hectare) site and hosted a glitzy ground-
breaking ceremony in November.
Guests of hotels and other lodging facili-
ties in the Las Vegas area are contributing
$750 million to the project through a room
tax increase. The Raiders and the NFL are
expected to contribute $500 million to the

project, while the team has also secured a
$600 million bank loan for construction.
Henderson’s city council must vote again
next month to give final approval to the
offer.
Henderson officials said the city will ben-
efit from property taxes collected on the
land and additional spending from visitors
and team clients. City staff said similar proj-
ects have created an estimated $210 million
tax impact over a decade after the venues are
fully built.
Not all residents were supportive of the
city’s decision.
“The Raiders have been Gypsies over the
years, starting in Oakland, then moving to
El Segundo (LA) for a few years, then back to
Oakland and now Las Vegas. Where to next?”
Henderson resident Adrian Woodhouse wrote
the city council in an email.
On Wednesday, commissioners in Clark
County approved a development agreement
with the team that spells out public safety
and infrastructure improvements in and
around the Raiders stadium.
The agreement calls for widening side-
walks, improving roadways, installing and
modifying traffic signals, and building any
needed pedestrian bridges.

DALLAS — The Dallas Mavericks were
left shaking their heads at Stephen Curry’s
shot-making ability — and how they let
him get one last great look at the basket.
Curry’s long 3-pointer with three seconds
to play allowed the Warriors to escape with
a 125-122 win over the Mavericks
Wednesday night after blowing a double-
digit lead in the final four minutes.
On their final possession, the Warriors
gave Curry the inbounds pass. A crossover
dribble and a screen from Draymond Green
were all he needed to get a clean look from
28 feet, which hit nothing but net. Dallas,
with a foul to give, didn’t take it.
“Too open of a look for a game-winner for

Mavericks star Dirk Nowitzki said.

Menlo boys on a roll to open WBAL Foothill play
By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
One minute into the second half of Menlo
School’s 66-38 blowout of Pinewood in the
West Bay Athletic League boys’ basketball
opener Wednesday night, Knights head
coach Keith Larsen paced up and down the
Menlo bench offering staunch praise.
“Great defense! Great defense!” Larsen
offered with his Knights en route to allow-
ing their lowest point total of the season.
With four returning starters, Menlo (1-0
WBAL Foothill, 8-1 overall) is off to a roar-
ing start in 2017-18, its only loss thus far
coming last Friday in the Orange Holiday
Classic in Southern California in a 72-68
thriller to powerhouse Canyon-Anaheim.
“As long as we stay healthy, we’re pretty
good — at any level,” Larsen said.
And as the defending WBAL Foothill
Division champs took aim at Pinewood (0-
1, 6-4), the Knights avenged their only
league loss, at the hands of the Panthers,
from last season.
Menlo was money on the defensive side
of the ball, with Pinewood turning the ball
over 23 times and hobbled quieted with a
33.3 shooting percentage. On the flip slide,
though, Menlo — after a stellar first quarter
— didn’t convert much better, shooting just
37.5 percent on the night.
“Defensively we were fabulous,” Larsen
said. “But offensively, we missed so many
layups —  we missed our first three free
throws — it’s just finishing. We just need to
make those layups.”
That first quarter saw Menlo drop 10 of 17
shots, though, with forward Thomas Brown

So far, Japan’s Miki Ando is the only
woman to land a quadruple jump in a competi-
tion, hitting a quad salchow at the Junior
Grand Prix final in 2002. Sasha Cohen of the
U.S. landed one in practice a year earlier for
Skate America but abandoned the risky jump
once her long program began, and the idea of
uncorking one in a major competition has
remained dormant for much of the last decade.
The biggest reason for the stagnation: sim-
ple biology.
Female skaters often reach their pinnacle
by the time they are 20 years old. Their
power-to-weight ratio peaks before puberty,

Menlo senior Thomas Brown glides to the hoop for two of his game-high 16 points.
leading the charge. The senior scored a
game-high 16 points, including eight in the
opening period.
As testament to Menlo’s defense-first
philosophy, Brown’s best scoring high-
light came in transition. Midway through
the first quarter, the senior notched one of
his two steals of the game on a takeaway
just shy of midcourt and scored on a footrace
to the bucket.
Brown’s takeaway was a result of Menlo’s
aggressive man-to-man approach, which
aspires to stay in the faces of the opposi-
tion at all times.
their teenage years often throw off the intri-
cate timing that they’ve worked years to
achieve.
The men, meanwhile, get stronger when
puberty hits. Their ability to fly higher and
spin faster only grows in their early 20s,
allowing many to go quad crazy when they
step on the ice.
“The people succeeding are the guys,” said
Audrey Weisiger, the longtime coach of two-
time Olympian Michael Weiss. “If you want
to track the ascension of skills attained, it is
all men. (The women) are not doing anything
different than what Kristi Yamaguchi was
doing.”
Or Lipinski, for that matter.
“Women are good to a certain level and then
their bodies change. They reach puberty,”
Weisiger said. “They are not as strong and
probably more emotional. Their skills deteri-
orate much faster.”

“Coach’s philosophy is no middle, ”
Brown said. “A lot of teams, their whole
philosophy is drive middle, kick to the cor-
ner. We don’t let that happen.”
And this is a strategy that runs five men
deep. Even 6-7 center Riley Woodson,
while a consistent rebounding presence in
the post — he had a game-high nine boards
— is fleet of foot in marking the frontcourt
defensively when need be. In this sense,
Larsen compared his big senior to a high
school version of Draymond Green.
“Riley Woodson’s feet are so much better,
he can switch on [Joe] Foley’s point guard,”
As a result, many of them are forced to trade
amplitude for altitude.
Which isn’t necessarily a bad thing. Many
critics believe the sport has gone overboard
with its jumps, ratcheting up athleticism at
the expense of artistry. Two-time Olympic
gold medalist Dick Button even claimed he
doesn’t watch skating much anymore
because “there’s no theater to it,” and he pre-
dicted the men’s Olympic champion next
month will be the skater that lands the most
quads.
But as in most sports, innovation is the
best way to avoid irrelevance.
Mirai Nagasu understands that concept.
The 24-year-old California native is trying
to make her second Olympic team at this
week’s U.S. championships in San Jose, and
her ticket could be pulling off a triple axel —

tions from a forward leap, or the closest

Larsen said, “and that guy doesn’t get to the
basket.”
Menlo point guard Joe Foley added 11
points, three assists and a steal. And the 6-
3 senior has all the makings of another
MVP season. As a junior last year, he cap-
tured WBAL Foothill Division Most
Valuable Player honors.
“He could be one of the best to ever come
out of this area,” Larsen said. “The thing is,
he has the tendency to get a little compla-
cent, if you will. He passes the ball so much
more than he takes his shot.”
Foley moved the ball around so well, 10

Menlo is three tiers deep, with 16 players
on roster. All of them received minutes
Wednesday.
The four returning starters, rounding out
with junior guard Sam Fortenbaugh, were all
but solidified when preseason practice
began. The only starter Larsen was tasked
with replacing was graduated Hayden
Pegley, who was in attendance Wednesday.
In place of the 5-11 Pegley, the Knights have
utilized several different starters. But heading
into league play, Larsen seems content with
sophomore Cole Kastner starting from here on
out. Kastner, who tabbed eight points and three
rebounds, is a 6-7 power forward.
Kastner added a team-high three steals,
which will bode well in earning him regular
minutes. After all, this is the priority for a
Knights team that last year allowed just
49.1 points per game, and is in the same
vicinity in allowing 50.3 points per game
through nine games this year.

Larsen said.
thing to a quadruple jump any women is
doing these days.
“I love I’m being recognized for having the
ability to accomplish such a difficult jump,” she
said. “It took me three years to learn my double
axel and a really long time for the triple axel,
and I’m proud to be recognized for something
nobody else in the U.S. can do right now.”
Lipinski thinks it’s just a matter of time until
more skaters can pull off the triple axel, and that
a day will come when a young woman can con-
sistently land a quadruple jump in competition.
The ceiling, as the saying goes, truly is made
of glass.
“I think it’s advancing, even if you look at
the junior level; I saw a Japanese skater land a
triple axel-triple toe,” Lipinski said. “I think
over the next few years the women are going to
catch up and it’s going to change dramatically
the women’s event.”

LOS ANGELES — UCLA quarterback Josh Rosen is skipping
his senior season to enter the NFL draft.
Rosen made the expected announcement Wednesday with a
post on Twitter. He is expected to be a high first-round pick in
April.
Rosen has been the Bruins’ starting quarterback for the past
three seasons, playing in 30 total games after missing half of
his sophomore year with injuries. He passed for 9,301 yards
with 59 touchdown passes and 26 interceptions.

expected to be high first-round selections in April.
Darnold took over as the Trojans’ starting quarterback four
games into last season as a redshirt freshman. He won the Rose

down performance against Penn State, and he led the Trojans to

to West Catholic Athletic League regular season and tourna-
ment titles and their seventh straight Central Coast Section
title, which was also the CCS’s inaugural Open Division
bracket. In the process of winning CCS, Churukian became
just the third-ever unanimously voted the best player in the
section. The Gators then went on to a second-place finish
in the Nor Cal tournament,
And to cap his junior season, Churukian is the Daily
Journal Boys’ Water Polo Player of the Year.
“The nice part is, most of our team has been playing
together pretty much our entire high school career. Even
before we all met at high school, we played for the Stanford
Water Polo Club together,” Churukian said. “Just trying to
make myself better every day and making the team better, I
think that was the goal for everyone (this season).”
The other goal the Gators set was to continue their run as
CCS champs and, while the Gators’ streak of champi-
onships will, surely, come to an end one day, it wasn’t
going to happen in 2017. Not if Churukian had anything to
do about it.
“Our goal is definitely winning CCS. There is a little
pressure, but it’s a nice pressure,” Churukian said. “This
year, it was a whole new game with the Open Division. I
think that really got us going. It was a whole new chal-
lenge.
“The nice part about the Open Division, it really widened
the competition (putting all the best teams in one bracket).
So the games before the championship game were tougher,
so I think it made it a more fun experience for the players
involved.”
Churukian got a nice introduction to the high school hole
set his sophomore year by working in tandem with Jackson
the Year. Churukian said the offense ran a dual 2-meter set
last season, with he and Enright sharing the hole set
chores.
“[Enright] definitely helped me get a lot of experience
working with him every day,” Churukian said. “He definite-
ly made me better and helped me learn to be a better set.”
Churukian was on his own this season and excelled.
While much of the high school water polo game is predi-
cated on scoring goals, Churukian is already showing off
the style of game needed for the college and international
levels, where the 2-meter man does not need to physically
put the ball in the back of the net to be successful, but helps
set up those scoring plays — whether through passes to
open teammates or by forcing the opposition to play a man
short because of fouls committed against him.
“Every college, every national team, starts with a big
man in the middle. Being a 2-meter man, the man in the
middle, you need to have a certain mentality,” Kreutzkamp
said. “No one, in general, is going to allow goals to go in
from two meters. … Big 2-meter men are hard to come by
and he fits that mold — 6-4, about 220 (pounds).”
But like the modern elite NBA big man, Churukian is no
plodder. He is an explosive swimmer that allows him to
transition from defense to offense like that of a player at
the driver position.
“He has [CCS qualifying swimming times] in the 50 and
the 100, which is very unusual for a kid that size,”
Kreutzkamp said. “He can keep up with the smaller guys.”
However, very few opposing players —  regardless of
their size — can keep up with Churukian.

with the school, Shasta entered the PSAL in its first year
of eligibility and the boys’ basketball team went 16-2.
“Now we have teams trying to schedule us. We’re grow-
ing faster than most schools this size,” Lofberg said of the
overall status of the three Peninsula Summit schools. “The
programs are moving faster. Shasta, this is the fifth year
of the school’s existence, and we’re already in a league.”
One of the first things Lofberg did since assuming the
AD duties at all three campuses was to improve communi-
cations between the players and their parents, and the
coaches and the administration, which is made much easier
with the technology available.
But Lofberg was also quick to let everyone know that
there is a very definite chain of command.
“I do establish with the players and parents (that) I don’t
deal with playing-time discussions. Period. I have all the
confidence in my coaches. I let my coaches coach, with
the understanding that they are the first point of contact
for their players and parents,” Lofberg said. “If it needs to
be escalated, they know to come to me. That way, I’m not
getting 300 emails a day (from disgruntled parents or play-
ers). My coaches are an extension of me and I let them
know that I will go to bat for them.”
But don’t think of Lofberg sitting in an ivory tower,
raining edicts down on his realm. He is as hands on as
possible. Despite being only a part-time employee of the

school, he makes it a point to be on each campus at least
once a week and has an open-door policy — both on and
off campus.
“All athletes have my email (address),” Lofberg said.
When he is on campus, he is not hiding in his office. He
is out and about, interacting with the students. He said he
is now called “coach” by most athletes at Shasta and he
hopes to build that kind of camaraderie at the other cam-
puses as well.
“I do put in the face time. The kids do know who I am,”
Lofberg said. “I remember my high school AD just sat in
his office. I didn’t know what he did, or cared.
“But I want to be at games. They (the student-athletes)
want to see that support is there, that there’s involvement
(from the school administration). Last year was the first
time, ever, we hosted games (for Shasta), one volleyball
game and two basketball games. I worked the clock all
three games. I wanted to show the kids that I wasn’t there
just to turn on the lights and then come back at the end of
the game. It’s to be there to show them that I am a fan and
I do support them.”
And really, when you boil it down, the athletic director’s
role is to support a school’s entire athletic program —
both coaches and players.

Houston said the win gave his team respect for North Dakota
State’s program and confidence it had reached its level.
Asked what he could take from that game, Bison coach Chris
Klieman said, “Nothing, really.”
“We just watched the film and decided what we liked and
didn’t like ... and moved on,” Klieman said.
This year the teams seem evenly matched in all phases,
including the presence of two veteran quarterbacks who
have combined to win 62 games. Junior Easton Stick is 33-
3 as a starter for the Bison. Senior Bryan Schor is 29-3 in
his career with the Dukes.
“Both players, I think their teams know how valuable
they are,” Klieman said about Stick and Schor.
Both teams have moved on from a rash of injuries. The
Dukes kept on rolling despite being particularly hard-hit on
their offensive line. The Bison saw four of their top five
running backs go down and lost their two starting corner-
backs in the playoffs. Klieman said the first step in over-
coming injuries is expecting them to happen.
“That’s just the nature of football. You’re going to have
guys injured,” Klieman said. “Nobody wants that. I hope
we’re at our best, I hope JMU is at their best. But that’s the
reality and both teams have lost guys for the season.”
Thanks in part to the three-week break between the semi-
finals and finals, some of those injured players could see
action on Saturday.
North Dakota State standout defensive tackle Nate
Tanguay said his advice to his younger teammates during
championship week is to “lock in” during practices and
meetings, but relax and enjoy the flurry of activities that
includes meeting with former Bison football players and an
annual bowling tournament.
“Hey, take it all in, because this could be taken away in an
instant,” said Tanguay, who suffered a season-ending knee
injury late in the 2016 campaign.
One person happy to be taking in Bison fans is Robert
Verich, an owner and general manager of Tight Ends Sports
Bar and Grill, a 450-seat watering hole in Plano with 42 TVs
and 118 employees. He said the difference in his sales from
2017 to 2016 was “the Bison week,” or lack thereof.
“If you take the busiest day we’ve ever had, it doesn’t com-
pare to when the Bison are here. And we’re busy. We’re one
of the most popular places in the state of Texas,” Verich
said. “What a great way to start the year. Imagine having a
week where you can double your income for everybody.”

Growing citrus indoors takes patience, pays off handsomely
By Melissa Kossler Dutton
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
When Heather Rhoades bought her first
indoor orange tree nearly 20 years ago,
she had to order it from a specialty online
retailer. Now, it’s not uncommon to find
citrus trees at local gardening centers or
big box stores, said Rhoades, owner of
Gardening Know How, an online resource
based in Bedford, Ohio.
Interest in growing edibles and diverse
plants has helped make citrus trees more
popular and available, Rhoades said.
Would-be growers can find a variety of
lemon, lime and orange trees from which
to choose.
“It’s easier for people to get a hold of
citrus trees and they’re more willing to try
to grow them,” she said.
“Try” might be the operative word, added
Missy Henriksen of the National
Association of Landscape Professionals.
Growing citrus takes patience.
The trend toward bringing citrus and
other tropical plants indoors began with
commercial spaces but has been gaining
traction among homeowners as well, she
said.
“’Interior landscaping is growing in
popularity, and the use of tropical plants
and citrus trees originates with the grow-
ing desire of homeowners to create beauti-
ful ‘interiorscapes’ that are more exotic
and dramatic than your typical house-
plants,” she said.
Dwarf fruit varieties, such as the calam-
ondin orange, Tahitian orange, tangerine,
kumquat, Meyer lemon and Kaffir lime are
the best choices for growing indoors.
“Keep in mind, however, citrus trees are
not for everyone, ” Henriksen said.
“They’re best suited for homeowners who
are willing to devote the time and atten-

Dwarf fruit varieties, such as the calamondin orange, Tahitian orange, tangerine, kumquat,
Meyer lemon and Kaffir lime are the best choices for growing indoors.
tion these plants need to thrive, or who
can hire a landscape professional to regu-
larly tend to their plants.”
Start by selecting a healthy plant,
Rhoades said. Look for a tree with rich,
glossy leaves. A citrus plant that’s drop-
ping leaves has likely not been watered
properly, she said. Avoid trees that look
“leggy,” she said.
Next, make sure the container is large
enough for the roots to grow, Henriksen
said. Finally, place the tree in a spot
where it will receive plenty of sun. You
may want to supplement its exposure to
light by using a grow lamp, she said.
Research the tree’s water needs and fol-
low them closely, said Rhoades.
But check the soil each time before
watering. “Check it on a schedule,” she
said. “Don’t water it on a schedule.”
Sometimes it’s better to just mist the
leaves with a spray bottle than to water
the tree, said Barbara Pierson of White
Flower Farm in Litchfield, Connecticut.
It’s also a good idea to move citrus trees
outdoors during warm weather, said Greg
Gatlin, interior account manager at
Southern Botanical in Dallas. They can be
outdoors as long as temperatures don’t dip
below 50 degrees. When moving trees
between the indoors and outdoors, make
sure the temperature does not vary more
than 15 degrees, as that can shock the
plant.
Fertilizer also is important, Pierson
said. She recommends using fertilizer
designed for citrus. If that’s not available,
use regular fertilizer, but make it with half
the amount of fertilizer to the recommend-
Thursday • Jan 4, 2018 17
ed amount of water. Fertilize once a month
when the plants are indoors and twice a
month when they are outdoors.
“If you don’t feed, the plants are going
show it,” she said.
If cared for properly, the plants will
eventually produce small amounts of fruit,
though that may not be the biggest
reward, the experts said.
For Rhoades, the citrus blossoms are the
payoff.
“The flowers are literally intoxicating,”
she said. “Your house smells wonderful.”
For others, the trees offer a sense of
escape, Gatlin said. “People want to bring
more of that vacation feel to their homes,”
he said.
“If you can’t take that trip to the islands
at least you can experience part of it by
having the plants around.”
If citrus trees sound like too much work,
there are low-maintenance tropical plants
that can create the same effect, Henriksen
said. Palm trees, including the lady palm,
kentia palm, fishtail palm and parlor
palm, can be grown in containers, and
often transition well between indoor and
outdoor spaces all year.
“While most of us are attracted to plants
because of their beauty, the message is
slowly starting to get out that there are
benefits to having plants indoors, ”
Henriksen said. “They increase oxygen
levels, help purify the air by removing
toxins and improve your mood. As many
people prioritize natural elements as part
of healthy living styles, plants are often
an under-utilized home enhancement that
packs a powerful punch of health bene-
fits.”

Do you know your soil by name? By Lee Reich
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
“Soil don’t get no respect,” Rodney
Dangerfield might have said (but did-
n’t). Perhaps you know your state bird
or flower, but do you know your state
soil?
Well, in recent years soil has begun
to get more respect. Since the celebra-
tion of the Soil Survey Centennial
back in 1999, each state has been
given its own official state soil. It was
in 1899 that the U. S. Department of
Agriculture started its survey of all the
soils in the country.
SOILS COME IN MANY ‘FLAVORS’
You might wonder what a “soil sur-
vey” really is. Isn’t it all just dirt —
some perhaps stickier, or redder or
deeper — that lies beneath forest,
meadow, farm, home and garden?
Soils are distinctive, as different from each other as robins are There you go again. Not enough

In fact, soils are distinctive, as dif-
ferent from each other as robins are
from blue jays. These differences are
hard to appreciate, of course, because
soil is mostly underground, hidden
from view. But if you were to dig some
holes a few feet deep and then look
carefully at their inside surfaces, you
would find that soils are made up of
layers of varying thickness, called
horizons. One soil might differ from
the next not only in the thickness of
its horizons, but also in their appear-
ance and feel.
Horizons might be as white as
chalk, as red as rust, or as dark brown
as chocolate. A horizon might be
cement-hard, gritty with sand, or stuff
for sculpture. And if you were to tease
the dirt along one edge of the hole so
it falls away naturally — wow! —
each horizon would reveal its parti-
cles clumped together in arrange-
ments like plates, blocks or prisms.
Such information, and more, has

allowed soils to be classified, much as
birds, flowers and other living things
are.
CLASSIFYING SOILS
Modern soil classification goes
back only a few decades, when all the
world’s soils were grouped taxonomi-
cally into a dozen “orders. ”
Differences among orders reflect the
formative influence of a particular
combination of climate, plants and
animals, topography, time and origi-
nal rock material.
Just as all vertebrate animals are
huddled together by biologists into
smaller groupings (mammals, say)
and those groupings into still smaller
ones, so each soil order is divided and
subdivided to include more distinctly
different soils. At the end of the divid-
ing and subdividing, you end up with
a “soil series” identified with a proper
name — like the Haven series in my
vegetable garden, for example.

more affordable.
Councilmembers lauded the effort as
a means of illustrating officials’ dedica-
tion to addressing an issue central to
the quality of life for so many resi-
dents, according to video of the
Tuesday, Jan. 2, meeting.
“This is an opportunity to educate
our community on what Burlingame is
doing,” said Councilwoman Ann
Keighran. “Because sometimes there is
a perception that we are not addressing
affordable housing issues. So this is
one of those opportunities to be able
to do a little more education.”
The pilot program is slated to launch
Saturday, Feb. 10, with an initial dis-
cussion regarding affordable housing
plans and policies standing to impact
Burlingame.
“We will be getting a pulse of the
community and seeing what people are
thinking about,” Planning Director
Kevin Gardiner said of the event to be

notiCE of PEtition to
adminiStER EStatE of
Susan P. Eschelbach
Case Number: 17PRO01275
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, con-
tingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or es-
tate, or both, of Susan P. Eschelbach. A
Petition for Probate has been filed by Pe-
ter W. Eschelbach in the Superior Court
of California, County of San Mateo. The
Petition for Probate requests that Peter
W. Eschelbach be appointed as personal
representative to administer the estate of
the decedent.
The petition requests authority to admin-
ister the estate under the Independent
Administration of Estates Act. (This au-
thority will allow the personal representa-
tive to take many actions without obtain-
ing court approval. Before taking certain
very important actions, however, the per-
sonal representative will be required to
give notice to interested persons unless
they have waived notice or consented to
the proposed action.) The independent
administration authority will be granted
unless an interested person files an ob-
jection to the petition and shows good
cause why the court should not grant au-
thority.
A hearing on the petition will be held in
this court as follows: JAN 19, 2018 at
9:00 a.m., Superior Court of California,
County of San Mateo, 400 County Cen-
ter, Redwood City, CA 94063.
If you object to the granting of the peti-
tion, you should appear at the hearing
and state your objections or file written
objections with the court before the hear-
ing. Your appearance may be in person
or by your attorney.
If you are a creditor or a contingent cred-
itor of the decedent, you must file your
claim with the court and mail a copy to
the personal representative appointed by
the court within the later of either (1) four
months from the date of first issuance of
letters to a general personal representa-
tive, as defined in section 58(b) of the
203 Public notices

Iran says Trump’s ‘absurd tweets’ have incited disruption
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
UNITED NATIONS — Iran charged
Wednesday that the U.S. “has crossed every
limit” in international relations by
expressing support for Iran’s anti-govern-
ment protesters and said President Donald
Trump’s “absurd tweets” have encouraged
disruption.
In a letter to U. N. officials, Iranian
Ambassador Gholamali Khoshroo com-
plained that Washington was intervening
“in a grotesque way in Iran’s internal

sites and issue requests for proposals and
provide the type of support with financing,
and approvals, and entitlements, and per-
mits.”
Plans to build an affordable housing com-
plex at Bay Meadows have been more than a
decade in the making. San Mateo officials
negotiated with the developer to carve out a
1-acre parcel for city ownership. On
Tuesday, the City Council signed off on
planning and environmental documents
that will pave the way for Bridge to break
ground.
“It’s very gratifying,” said Mayor Rick
Bonilla, who has been involved with plan-
ning Bay Meadows since he served on a cit-
izens advisory committee in 2001. “It was a
big step forward to be able to have an all-
affordable housing building there. It makes
the project more complete.”
The affordable housing development has
long been viewed as a critical component of
the city’s overall vision for the site that
will eventually host more than 1,150 hous-
ing units, 780,000 square feet of office
space, 93,000 square feet of retail, as well
as 18 acres of park and open space. The new
HAGEDORN
Continued from page 1
ing a $12,000 monthly rent — has been a
constant challenge. So she is hoping before
she takes a bow as director to impress upon
those who enjoy the theater’s plays or have
always thought about attending one to help
support its costs.
“That’s something that we want people to
understand and realize,” she said.
Between putting the 2019 season in place
for her successor and directing Richard
Greenberg’s play “Three Days of Rain” in
May and June, Hagedorn expects the coming
months to be full of activity. She said it’s up
to the theater’s board of directors to select her
successor, which she is hoping can happen as
soon as possible to give the organization
enough time to restructure itself, if needed,
and do a push to raise funds before her depar-
ture.
“We’re going to have to figure some big
things out this year,” she said.
Though Kimberly Wadycki, the theater’s
managing director, acknowledged the transi-
tion would be bittersweet, she said one of the
hardest parts about running a theater compa-
ny is the constant worry about how to meet
all of its expenses. She credited Hagedorn for
creating a space where community members
can learn about lesser-known shows and
artists, one that attracted her to work at the
theater some seven years ago. Having worked
on theater productions since high school,
Wadycki noted finding well-written roles for
women in classic plays can be tough. She said
Hagedorn has strived to buck those trends
with the types of plays included in the Dragon
Theatre’s schedule each year and by consis-
tently working with a diverse group of artists.
“I love that we get to showcase that kind of
talent sometimes,” she said. “It’s nice to get
something different from the old chestnuts.”
Looking back on her tenure, Hagedorn,
once an actress, director and acting teacher,
said she’s grateful for the opportunity to
achieve a lifelong dream. Starting in 2014,
the Dragon Theater’s Second Stages Series
WORLD/LOCAL
affairs.” He said Trump and Vice President
Mike Pence were personally stirring up
trouble.
“The President and Vice-President of the
United States, in their numerous absurd
tweets, incited Iranians to engage in disrup-
tive acts,” the ambassador wrote to the U.N.
Security Council president and U. N.
Secretary-General Antonio Guterres.
The U.S. didn’t immediately respond to
the letter, which maintains that
Washington “has crossed every limit in
flouting rules and principles of internation-
community is roughly bordered by Hillsdale
Boulevard to the south, Highway 101 to the
east, the county event center to the north
and the Caltrain tracks to the west.
The rail line is a critical component with
Caltrain slated to electrify to increase
capacity, and construction underway on a
grade-separation project that will lift the
tracks at 25th, 28th and 31st avenues while
a new Hillsdale Station is relocated to the
north.
The city chose Bridge to develop 68 units
of affordable housing atop the vacant 1-acre
parcel at the corner of Delaware Street and
28th Avenue. When factored in to the num-
ber of other below-market rate units spread
throughout the various housing develop-
ments, Bay Meadows will ultimately have
about 16 percent of the homes set aside as
affordable.
San Mateo was able to secure the land as
part of its approval for the redevelopment,
and is now offering it to Bridge under a
long-term land lease for just $1 a year. Like
most affordable housing projects, Bridge
cobbled together a mix of funding from a
variety of sources including $7 million in
countywide Measure A sales tax funds, feder-
al tax credits and a $2 million loan from the
city.
Bridge expects to apply for federal sup-
port in the middle of the year, with the goal
has given emerging directors and actors a
chance to bring productions, or their versions
of them, to life, with the help of seed funding
and guidance on concepts like marketing,
ticket sales and fundraising. The more recent
additions of the theater’s Monday Night Play
Space series, allowing artists to workshop
new work in front of a live audience, and Late
Night series, giving musicians and comedi-
ans a platform to try out new performances,
have also expanded its offerings.
“It’s been really wonderful to see the
growth and see how many people we have
been able to touch and help and support,” she
said. “I do feel like what I set out to achieve, I
have achieved.”
Dale Albright, program director at Theatre
Bay Area and Dragon Theatre board member,
said he’s partnered with Hagedorn on a variety
of projects since the theater’s inception,
working alongside her as a fellow actor as
well as directing and producing other plays.
Having been invited to produce a play
through the Second Stages Series, Albright
said he wasn’t aware of any other theater com-
pany empowering artists to pitch their dream
show and support them in every step of pro-
ducing it.
“They take you under their wing, they sup-
port the production, they mentor the artist so
they can produce better work on their own in
the future,” he said. “It’s just an unprecedented
opportunity.”
Albright said Hagedorn is known for kick-
ing off the first rehearsal for every play pro-
duced at the theater and instilling a sense of
camaraderie among all those working on
shows there. He added that finding a successor
able to bridge the Hagedorn’s legacy with the
theater’s future will be a focus for the group
finding its next director.
Hagedorn said she is hopeful the communi-
ty that’s rallied behind the theater over the
years will continue to do so to support the
types of productions she’s been committed to
making available to Bay Area audiences.
“I’m hoping that as I step down people do

At least 21 people have been killed and
hundreds arrested in Iran during a week of
anti-government protests and unrest over
economic woes and official corruption.
Meanwhile, tens of thousands of people
took part in counter-demonstrations
Wednesday backing the clerically overseen
government, which has said “enemies of
Iran” are fomenting the protests.
Trump has unleashed a series of tweets in
recent days backing the protesters, saying

the end of 2018 or early 2019, Seshadri
said. When complete, those living at the
development will be making 60 percent or
less of the area median income, with the
vast majority earning below 50 percent, she
said.
Councilwoman Maureen Freschet said the
joint effort to build an entirely affordable
housing development is extremely valuable
at a time when people are severely affected
by escalating costs.
“It is very exciting to see the Bridge proj-
ect come to fruition after so many years of
planning. We all recognize the desperate
need for additional and affordable housing
on the Peninsula and I am proud that San
Mateo is doing its share. This project was a
collaborative effort and is a perfect example
of what can be accomplished when multiple
agencies work together to achieve a com-
mon goal,” Freschet said in an email.
With the Delaware Street corridor ground
zero for much of the development in the
city, Freschet said she’s pleased many in the
surrounding neighborhoods have been sup-
portive of efforts to help those who are
severely impacted by escalating housing
costs.
While it’s been reassuring to see voters
and local governments prioritize affordable
housing in recent years, steep hurdles

Iran is “failing at every level” and declaring
that it is “time for change” in the Islamic
Republic.
“Such respect for the people of Iran as
they try to take back their corrupt govern-
ment,” he tweeted Wednesday. “You will see
great support from the United States at the
appropriate time!”

Haley, called Tuesday for an emergency

remain. With cranes marking the skyline as
development booms across the Bay Area,
construction costs are on the rise, Seshadri
said. Though many have touted the need for
more housing of all types, affordable hous-
ing developers are having to compete with
for-profit builders for materials and labor.
That means building units for those on the
extremely low-income spectrum requires
further subsidies, she said.
The scale of the challenge is undoubtedly
great and San Mateo is not alone in feeling
the effects of development as residents
often tie their opposition to the impacts on
traffic, parking and schools.
Still, Bonilla emphasized government
can play a critical role promoting transit-
oriented developments and offering places
for low-income earners to call home.   
“The reason this is important is because
without us putting forth the land and the
money we put in from our affordable hous-
ing fund, it probably wouldn’t have hap-
pened, because land is so expensive that
nonprofit entities couldn’t build,” Bonilla
said, adding that encouraging housing on a
variety of affordability levels is “one of the
most important things that any jurisdiction
can do for its people.”
