Docktown relocation costs rise

Redwood City Council to review skyward expenses, progress in removing vessels
By Anna Schuessler
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
A little more than a year after the Redwood
City Council approved a relocation plan for
the floating home community of
Docktown, officials are set to review
progress and the dramatically rising cost of
removing some 70 vessels an estimated
100 residents have called home for years.
Costs associated with acquiring the boats
and barge-based dwellings at the marina
east of Highway 101 and north of Seaport
Boulevard were originally estimated at just
under $10.4 million when the plan was
approved Dec. 12, 2016. It included offer-
ing relocation benefits to eligible residents
and removing vessels that cannot be sold or
donated, among other components.
However, the plan’s estimated cost has dou-
bled to $20.8 million in the months since
city staff and consultants have been imple-
menting it, according to a staff report.
An increase in the cost of acquiring prop-
erty from tenants and a high volume of
appeals contesting the level of relocation
benefits and property appraisals residents
have been offered, which staff estimate at
33, are the main drivers of the jump in cost,
according to the report.
Drafted over the course of months, the
relocation plan is aimed at fulfilling the
requirements of a lawsuit settled last year
with an attorney and Docktown neighbor
that found the floating community to be a
violation of the public trust. Since the plan
was approved, 27 of the 70 tenants and sub-
tenants have relocated from the marina and
another 31 have agreed to move by Feb. 28.
Some four families with school-age chil-
dren may choose to stay at Docktown until
June 30, according to the report.

Modest but
steady hiring
in December
Unemployment rate remained 4.1
percent for a third straight month
By Christopher Rugaber
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON — U.S. employers added 148,000 jobs in

December, a modest gain but still enough to suggest that
the economy entered the new year with solid momentum.
The unemployment rate remained 4.1 percent for a third
straight month, the lowest level since 2000. For all of
2017, employers added nearly 2.1 million jobs, enough to
lower the unemployment rate from 4.7 percent a year ago.

Flashing crosswalks, raised medians with
trees and bulbouts at intersections and
along stretches of Hopkins Avenue are
among the improvements Redwood City
officials are scoping with residents after
concerns have arisen in recent years about
the speed and safety along the east-west
thoroughfare.
Jessica Manzi, senior transportation
coordinator, said worries about speeding,
drivers failing to yield to pedestrians cross-
ing the street and an increase in traffic vol-
ume along the corridor connecting El
Camino Real and Alameda de las Pulgas in
the Mt. Carmel neighborhood were what
sparked community conversations about
the changes some two years ago.
She said one meeting with a small group
of residents and three community meetings
over months informed the proposed plan
for changes to the 1-mile stretch of corri-
dor, which residents were asked to vote on
in December. Once the survey results are
compiled this month, Manzi said officials
could determine whether to recommend the
changes to the City Council, which could
happen as early as the spring.
Though the street currently has one lane
of traffic in either direction, bike lanes and
a two-way left-turn lane that sometimes
becomes a dedicated left-turn lane at inter-
sections, Manzi said the thoroughfare is
wider than most residential streets, at one
time accommodating four lanes of traffic.
So officials went through a more detailed
process for developing new designs for the
corridor, which Manzi said included col-
lecting traffic data and meetings with resi-
dents.
If they get the go-ahead from residents
and officials, the changes could result in
raised islands, striping and bulbouts to
improve pedestrians crossings at the
Nevada Street intersection, restriping of
the crosswalk at Hudson Street and a raised
crosswalk at Fulton Street. Raised medians
with landscaping and buffers are also meant
to slow speeds on the street, where the
speed limit is 25 mph. A flashing crosswalk
and raised crosswalk at Lowell Street and
King Street near Stafford Park, respective-
ly, are also included in the plans in an effort
to address concerns about those walking to
and from the open space area, said Manzi.
“I think it’ll add to the look of the street,
but also in adding those features and differ-
ent devices, it’ll reinforce good driving

Resident Elizabeth Garcia said she was

walks with her two children from their
home near Nevada Street to Lowell Street to
cross Hopkins Avenue on their way to
Stafford Park so drivers can more easily see
them.
“They will not stop for you if there is not
a crosswalk,” she said.
Garcia was also encouraged by orange
flags attached to brightly colored signs
indicating the Lowell Street intersections
provided by the Friends of Lowell Street,
allowing pedestrians to wave a flag as they
are crossing.
An analysis conducted by Kimley-Horn
and Associates, Inc. as part of the effort to
study the changes showed vehicles passing
through the segment between Lowell and
King streets at an average speed of 29 mph,
with many instances of vehicles reaching
speeds of 32 mph, based on 2015 data. The
analysis also showed the same stretch log-
ging the most pedestrian activity on the
street.
Though resident Laura Fontana said she
felt comfortable walking along Hopkins
Avenue, she supported efforts to slow
speeds in her neighborhood. She felt signs
reminding drivers of their speeds have been
effective, but noted faster speeds at night
and that pedestrians need to be careful at the
crosswalks near Stafford Park.
Acknowledging events like concerts at the
park have created back-ups from time to
time on nearby streets, Fontana said she
and others she’s spoken with would support
the increase in safety to accompany slower
speeds over ease of driving through their
neighborhood.
“We don’t want it to be the next El
Camino coming down here,” she said.
Manzi said minor adjustments in the past
three years include upgrading warning
signs that show drivers their speeds, a new
crosswalk at the Birch Street intersection
and adding a level crossing at a median at
Duane Street. Those changes were to address
concerns about specific parts of the street,
which is also used by students walking or
bicycling to Sequoia High School.
But this is the first time the city has con-
sidered traffic calming measures for
Hopkins Avenue, which Manzi said are cur-
rently estimated to cost $750,000. Should
the changes be approved, Manzi said they
could move from the conceptual stage to
more detailed designs and that the earliest
they might go into place would be in 2019.

Prosecutors in pot-friendly states will decide on crackdown
By Kathleen Foody and Don Thompson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
DENVER — Whether to crack down on
marijuana in states where it is legal is a
decision that will now rest with those
states’ top federal prosecutors, many of
whom are deeply rooted in their communi-
ties and may be reluctant to pursue cannabis
businesses or their customers.
When he rescinded the Justice
Department’s previous guidance on marijua-
na, Attorney General Jeff Sessions left the
issue to a mix of prosecutors who were
appointed by President Donald Trump’s
administration and others who are
holdovers from the Barack Obama years.
Legal experts do not expect a flood of new
cases, and people familiar with the job of
U.S. attorney say prosecutors could decide
against using already limited resources to
seek criminal charges against cannabis
companies that abide by state regulations
or their customers.
“There are higher priorities: terrorism and
opiates to start with,” said Rory Little, a
former prosecutor and a professor at the
Five arrested for attempted murder
Four male juveniles and one San Mateo
man were arrested for attempted murder and

Thursday night, according to police.
At approximately 10:30 p.m., police
report a shooting took place in the area of
John Glenn Circle and Warwick Street as
two groups were involved in an altercation
as the party was ending. A group in a black
Jeep pulled up to another group getting into
their vehicle to leave and a juvenile from
the Jeep fired several rounds from a handgun
at the departing group, according to police.
A 19-year-old from San Bruno was struck
by several rounds and transported to San
Francisco General Hospital. He is in stable
condition, according to police.
Daly City officers were in the area and
heard the shots. The Jeep left the scene but
was stopped nearby by responding officers.
The adult was identified as Jacob Simonson,
18, of San Mateo. Firearms were located in
the vehicle, according to police.

Thursday, federal prosecutors followed
guidelines laid out in the so-called Cole
memo, which was issued by the Justice
Department during the Obama administra-
tion. The memo discouraged prosecutors
from going after people participating in the
marijuana trade in states where recreational
marijuana is legal, except in cases with
aggravating factors.
Sessions revoked that document and oth-
ers, citing the fact that pot remains illegal
under federal law.
Federal prosecutors are not elected, but
they often have long histories working in
their districts. They are surrounded by attor-
neys who have spent their careers arguing
federal cases before judges who can make
their displeasure with a U. S. attorney
known in sentencing decisions and in the
scheduling of cases. That environment will
not change because of a memo from the

Trump seeks $18B to extend border wall over 10 years
By Elliot Spagat
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN DIEGO — The Trump administration
has proposed spending $18 billion over 10
years to significantly extend the border
wall with Mexico, providing one of its
most detailed blueprints of how the presi-
dent hopes to carry out a signature cam-
paign pledge.
The proposal by Customs and Border
Protection calls for 316 miles (505 kilome-
ters) of additional barrier by September
2027, bringing total coverage to 970 miles
(1,552 kilometers), or nearly half the bor-
der, according to a U.S. official with direct
knowledge of the matter.
It also calls for 407 miles (651 kilome-
ters) of replacement or secondary fencing,
said the official, who spoke to the
Associated Press on the condition of
anonymity because the plan has not been
made public.
Trump has promised “a big, beautiful
wall” with Mexico as a centerpiece of his
presidency but offered few details of where it
would be built, when and at what cost. His
administration asked for $1.6 billion this
year to build or replace 74 miles (118 kilo-
meters) of fencing in Texas and California,
and officials have said they also will seek
$1.6 billion next year.
White House setting records for early departures
By Jonathan Lemire and Zeke Miller
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Already setting
turnover records, President Donald Trump’s
White House is bracing for even more staff
departures and an increasing struggle to fill
vacancies, shadowed by the unrelenting
Russia probe, political squabbling and
Trump’s own low poll numbers.
Entering a grueling year that is sure to
bring fresh challenges at home and abroad,
Trump faces a brain drain across a wide
swath of government functions, threaten-
ing to hamstring efforts to enact legisla-
tion or conduct even basic operations.
Some departures are expected to come from
senior ranks — the staff churn that makes
headlines — but more are likely among the
lesser-known officials who help to keep
the White House and Cabinet agencies run-
ning.
In Trump’s first year, his administra-
tion’s upper-level officials have had a
turnover rate of 34 percent, much higher
than any other in the past 40 years, accord-

The 10-year plan, first reported by The

official said.

Tenpas, a non-resident senior fellow at the

that 22 of the 64 senior officials she

Anecdotal evidence among more junior

The presidency with the next-highest
first-year turnover rate was Ronald
Reagan’s, with 17 percent of senior aides
leaving in 1981. And Trump’s first-year rate
is three times Bill Clinton’s 11 percent and
Barack Obama’s 9 percent.
“This is very unusual. It’s significant

Trump said last year that he was ending
DACA but gave Congress until March to
deliver a legislative fix.
The plan on border security came in
response to a request by U.S. Sen. Jeff
Flake, said Jason Samuels, a spokesman for
the Arizona Republican.
An administration official confirmed the
document was prepared at the request of con-
gressional negotiators and said funding for
the wall and other security measures must be
part of any legislative package on immigra-
tion.
The official spoke on condition of
anonymity because the plan has not been
made public.
Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen
Nielsen told the Associated Press on
Tuesday that the wall would be “first and
foremost” in any package that includes new
protections for DACA recipients. She also
said the administration wanted to close
“loopholes” on issues that include handling
asylum claims and local police working
with immigration authorities.
Nielsen called the $3.2 billion requests
for fencing during the administration’s first
two years a down payment.
“This is not going to get us the whole
wall we need, but it’s a start,” she said.

Hard-line cleric says social
media fed Iran protests, unrest
By Jon Gambrell
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
DUBAI, United Arab Emirates — A
hard-line cleric leading Friday prayers
in Iran’s capital called on the Islamic
Republic to build its own social media,
blaming popular international mes-
saging apps for the unrest that accom-
panied days of protests over the coun-
try’s flagging economy.
The demonstrations began on Dec.
28 and quickly spread across the coun-
try, prompting the government to sus-
pend access to the messaging app
Telegram, which was being used to
publicize the protests, and briefly
block the Instagram photo-sharing
site. Twitter and Facebook were already
banned.
With travel restricted across Iran, a
nation of 80 million people roughly
two-and-a-half times the size of Texas,
online videos and images posted by
activists have provided some of the
only glimpses into the demonstra-
tions, the largest in nearly a decade,
which have mainly been held in the
provinces.
Such images only provide a limited
view of events on the ground, and can
be easily manipulated. All of Iran’s
radio and television stations are state-
run.
“Cyberspace was kindling the fire of
the battle,” Ayatollah Ahmad Khatami
told thousands of worshippers gath-
ered in Tehran. “When cyberspace was
closed down, the sedition was stopped.

Tech stocks climb for fourth day
By Marley Jay
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — After another
solid monthly jobs report, tech-
nology companies again led the
way as U.S. stocks rose for the
fourth day in a row to start 2018.
They are on their longest new-
year winning streak in eight
years.
The Labor Department said
employers added 148,000 jobs in
December. That was a bit less than
experts expected, but still under-
scored the continued health of the
economy. Wages grew and factory
managers received more new
orders than in any month since
2004. Health care and consumer-
focused companies also rose, and
the weaker dollar gave industrial
firms like Boeing and basic mate-
rials makers a lift.
Wages and worker productivity
are rising at about the same rate,
according to Ed Keon, managing
director and portfolio manager of
QMA, a fund manager owned by
Prudential Financial. He said if
African-American unemployment hit record low in December
African-Americans’ record-low unemployment rate
Q. GIVEN THE RECORD-LOW UNEMPLOYMENT
RATES, IS THIS THE BEST JOB MARKET EVER
FOR BLACKS?
A. Not necessarily. As with nearly all demographic
groups, a smaller proportion of blacks have jobs
now than before the Great Recession, in part
because of retirements, more people staying in
school and discouraged would-be workers.
The best job market for African-Americans might
actually have been in 2000, when 61.4 percent of
black adults were employed, the highest
proportion ever. That figure fell below 52 percent
in the depths of the recession, and is now 57.9
percent.
The same pattern occurred for other groups.Two-
thirds of Latinos were employed in 2000; now, only
62.5 percent are. About 65 percent of whites were
working in 2000, far higher than the current 60.4
percent. (The data for Asians goes back only to
2003.)
Q. Why is the African-American unemployment
rate higher than the rate for whites?
A. The main reason is discrimination, according to
that trend continues, company
profits should stay solid and
inflation won’t be much of a risk
to the economy.
Productivity growth has been
weak in recent years, but it
jumped 3 percent in the third quar-
ter. Keon said new technologies
may now be helping businesses
in a bigger way.
“It’s possible that we’re on the
most research. Valerie Wilson, director of the
Economic Policy Institute’s program on race,
ethnicity and the economy, notes that even when
African-Americans have similar levels of education
or experience, their chances of being unemployed
are higher.
“That’s what begs the question of what else could
be the major reason,”Wilson said.
Nancy DiTomaso, a business professor at Rutgers
University, says her research has found that whites
likely benefit from networks of family and friends
that don’t intentionally exclude blacks or other
minorities. Yet, nevertheless, their networks have
the effect of helping whites get jobs more readily
than blacks.
Q. What about other ethnic and racial groups?
A. Everyone is benefiting from the healthy job
market. The unemployment rate for Latinos was
4.9 percent in December, just above the record
low of 4.8 percent reached in June.
And the jobless rate for Asians was 2.5 percent in
December, just above the record low of 2.4 percent
set in 2006.
Q. What factors have helped lower

unemployment for all Americans.

Grabbing a beard? The NHL has it covered

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
TORONTO — Nazem Kadri may
have got off lightly for grabbing
Joe Thornton’s beard in a fight.
For one, the Toronto center sur-
vived a tilt with a much bigger man
with only some facial swelling.
But he also escaped further punish-
ment for getting his hand tangled
in Thornton’s mountain-man
beard, pulling out a chunk of hair
in the process.
On the plus side for the 38-year-
old Thornton, the San Jose star
would have had to shave before
fighting had he been in the UFC.
Asked whether the rule book
covered beard-pulling, the NHL
pointed to Rule 75.2 (ii) which
says:
“Any player who is guilty of
unsportsmanlike conduct includ-
ing, but not limited to hair-
pulling, biting, grabbing hold of a
face mask, etc. If warranted, and
specifically when injury results,
the referee may apply Rule 21 —
Match Penalties.”
Both combatants only got fight-
ing majors.
It appears the referees decided the
beard interaction was unintention-
al. Or perhaps, like everyone else
watching, it just took a while to
figure out what had just happened.
The fight came off the opening
faceoff. Kadri said Thornton chal-
lenged him after the two were
tossed from the faceoff circle fol-
lowing a nasty slashing exchange.
Kadri, who was giving up at least
4 inches and 30 pounds to
Thornton, appeared to be trying to
grab a handful of his sweater but
got beard instead — unintentional-
ly, he said.
“I mean he’s a big boy.” Kadri
said about the 6-foot-4 Shark. “I
couldn’t reach all the way across
his shoulder. I felt like I just
grabbed him in the middle of his
jersey and just came down with a
handful of his hair. I thought I was
a hockey player not a barber.”
The damage appeared to be done
as Thornton lost his balance and
went down, with Kadri still
attached to his beard. The dislodged
hair landed on the ice and the mini-
tumbleweed was eventually handed
over to the Sharks bench, presum-
ably for safe-keeping.
Thornton, who didn’t speak after
the game, has been in beard
brouhahas before.
In the 2015-16 playoffs, he and
St. Louis’ David Backes each
grabbed the other’s beard during an
altercation that saw no punches

they can’t be held by the hair.
In 2013, Arizona Cardinals run-
ning back Andre Ellington had
some of his dreadlocks pulled out
when tackled by Jacksonville
defensive end Jason Babin. There
was no flag on the play.
Some combative sports govern-
ing bodies require fighters to get
rid of their beards. The Ontario
Athletic Commission ordered Emil
Meek to trim his beard to a length
where it could not be grabbed ahead
of his UFC 206 matchup with
Canadian Jordan Mein in December
2016.
“As much as I want to keep my
beard, I want to fight more,” tweet-
ed the Norwegian, who reduced the
size of the beard before winning by

Sharks cough up big lead, fall to Ottawa
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
OTTAWA, Ontario — Matt Duchene scored
his second goal of the game seven seconds
into overtime and the Ottawa Senators
capped a four-goal comeback with a 6-5 win
over the San Jose Sharks on Friday night.
Down 5-2 to start the third period, the
Senators got goals from Derick Brassard,
Duchene and Mike Hoffman. Ryan Dzingel
and Mark Stone also scored for Ottawa, and
Craig Anderson made 30 saves.
Hoffman and Duchene raced for a 2-on-1
off the OT faceoff, and Hoffman slipped a
backhand pass across the slot to Duchene,
who pushed the puck past goalie Aaron Dell.
Senators 6, Sharks 5 OT
Tomas Hertl led the Sharks with two
goals. Melker Karlsson, Chris Tierney and
Brett Burns also scored. Dell stopped 37
shots.
Brassard made it 5-3 in the opening
minute of the third, beating Dell from a
sharp angle. Duchene then scored off his
backhand, and Hoffman tied it with his first
goal in 15 games, midway through the peri-
od. The Senators had 17 shots on goal in the
third period alone.
The Sharks took a 4-1 lead early in the
second, scoring back-to-back power-play
goals. Anderson gave up a big rebound and
Tierney was there to pick it up, beating the
goalie glove side on the first goal. Less
than two minutes later, Burns took a great
pass from Logan Couture and beat Anderson
with a one-timer for his seventh of the sea-
son.
The Senators got one back on the power
play as Dzingel found Stone, who beat Dell
far side.
San Jose regained its three-goal lead on
Hertl’s second of the night when Anderson
struggled to handle a bouncing puck on a
wraparound and watched it bounce in
through his legs.
San Jose scored the game’s first goal
while short-handed. Hertl, on a breakaway,
scored his first of the game at the six-
minute mark.
The Senators tied it on a nice goal by
Dzingel, but the Sharks regained the lead
just over two minutes later when Karlsson
tipped in Joakim Ryan’s point shot.

Serra can’t recover from second-quarter landslide

By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
The Serra Padres were feeling pretty good
after the first five quarters of their West
Catholic Athletic League schedule.
After travelling to Valley Christian to
hand the Warriors their first loss of the sea-
son Tuesday, the Padres jumped out to a 13-6
lead Friday at Morton Family Gymnasium
against St. Francis.
Then a landslide second quarter by the
Lancers (2-0 WCAL, 10-2 overall), in which
they scored 23 points, buried the Padres
under a 65-52 loss, the first of their WCAL
slate.
“It’s early, so we’re not really worried
about one loss right now,” Serra senior
Denzel McCollum said.
What Serra (1-1, 9-3) should be worried
about is its ability to put the ball in the bas-
ket. Challenged by St. Francis’ pressure
zone, the Padres forced shots early, which
unraveled their ability to knock down open
looks late. Serra shot just 32.2 percent from
the field (19 of 59), including 2 of 16 from
3-point range.
“I was probably more disappointed with
giving up 65 points,” Serra head coach
Chuck Rapp said. “Because there’s nights
where you just can’t put the biscuit in the
basket … and I thought our defense didn’t
hold us up because we’re able to win games
like this in the past here at Serra because we
defended well. And I thought we had too
many defensive breakdowns. So, just a bad
day all over.”
The breakdowns were rampant in the sec-
ond quarter. And St. Francis guard Roy Yuan
was poised to capitalize. The junior knocked
down five 3-pointers throughout, including
three straight to spark a 12-2 run in the sec-
ond quarter to swing the Lancers in front.
The Lancers shot 47.9 percent from the
field, including 6 of 14 from beyond the arc.
“If you’re willing to give it to us, we’re
going to shoot the basketball,” St. Francis
head coach Mike Motil said. “If people

Landphere in the Padres’ 65-52 loss Friday night at Morton Family Gymnasium.
aren’t going to come out and guard us, we’re
going to let it go.”
St. Francis certainly doesn’t lack for con-
fidence. Powered by senior point guard
Logan Johnson — an animated and vocal
presence who was already jawing at the offi-
cials just one minute into the game — the
Lancers ran an aggressive dribble-drive
offense to perfection.
The 6-2 Johnson notched a double-double
with 17 points and a game-high 13
rebounds, but it was his second-quarter dis-
tribution — including assists on two of
Yuan’s 3s — that changed the tide for St.
Francis.
“When he gets downhill, he can be
tough,” Motil said. “We put the ball in his
hands and he needs to make good decisions.
He realizes on some nights the paint is

going to be crowded and he’s going to have
to share the basketball and find people. He’s
going to have to finish in different ways …
and he keeps working on when to find, and
when to finish.”
In terms of confidence, Serra may have
been feeling a little too much in the second
quarter. Senior guard Masie Mohammadi
converted an and-1 early in the quarter to put
the Padres up 18-9, but a rash of bad deci-
sions on offense led to too many failed
chances. Serra totaled just eight turnovers
throughout, but four of them came in the sec-
ond quarter.
“I think maybe we did get a little to com-
fortable,” Rapp said. “And sometimes that
happens when you’re on a winning streak.
We’ve won a couple games in a row and were
playing really hungry early in the year …
and I think the success kind of softened us. I
think that we got a little too comfortable
with ourselves and forgot it was the scrap
that got us to the place we were and forgot
the true character of this team.”
A Serra air ball on a finger-roll layup
through too much defensive traffic, followed
by two botched alley-oop tries, and St.
Francis was keen to capitalize. When Lancers
guard Maurice Wilmer — who totaled 15
points — hit a 19-foot jumper to close it to
18-15, Serra called a timeout. But just 30 sec-
onds later, Yuen drilled his first of three 3s
within two minutes time, giving St. Francis
a 24-22 lead with 1:48 left in the half.
The Lancers never again trailed.
“Dribble penetration, we couldn’t stop
that,” McCollum said. “We have weak-side
help, but it just wasn’t there tonight.”
Rapp agreed much of Serra’s woes started
with the ability of Johnson and the Lancers
to drive at will.
“It was a little too easy for them,” Rapp
said. “We didn’t deny lanes very well. And
they were able to operate and do what they
wanted. Give them credit, they made some
tough shots too. Things were just too easy
for them.”
Serra was led by senior Colin McCarthy’s
11 points. McCollum, senior Dillon
Macaraig and junior Parker McDonald
totaled eight points apiece.
The Padres got some good news this week
with the return of McDonald, who missed
two weeks after falling ill with mononucleo-
sis. The junior returned to action Tuesday
against Valley Christian, but his minutes
have been severely limited. Friday, he had
his best quarter in the fourth, including one
of just two Serra 3-pointers with three sec-
onds remaining.
Rapp said he couldn’t project when
McDonald, one of Serra’ key playmakers,
will return to full capacity.
“I don’t know,” Rapp said. “Mono is
weird. It really zaps your strength. It could
be awhile before he is at full (strength). He’s
still playing himself into shape.”

Wagner ‘furious’ after
4th place in free skate
By Janie McCauley
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN JOSE — Ashley Wagner called out
judges at the U.S. figure skating champi-
onships Friday night for her scores in the free
skate, which put in jeopardy her chances of
returning to the Olympics.
Wagner scored a 130.85 in her strongest
event for 196.19, with Karen Chen beating
her out for third with a 198.59.
“I’m furious, I am absolutely furious,”
Wagner said. “I know when I go and I lay it
down and I absolutely left one jump on the
table, but for me to put out two programs that
I did at this competition as solid as I skated
and to get those scores, I am furious, and I
think deservedly so. I am a performer and that
second mark is just not there. I am absolutely
OK with them being strict on my rotations.
That’s what I think that U.S. Figure Skating
should demand of their judges but it needs to
be across the board. I don’t necessarily feel
like it’s been that way at this event, so we’ll
see how things pan out.”
The 26-year-old three-time national cham-
pion and Sochi team bronze medalist missed
the podium, placing fourth. She seemed
unconcerned that her public criticism after

Court ruling due on $500K in Israeli-US figure skating flap
NEWARK, N.J. — ANew Jersey woman who skated in the Olympics for Israel before winning the
right to skate for the U.S. is awaiting a court decision to see how much it will cost her.
The Israeli skating federation wants a New Jersey state appeals court to grant it more than
$500,000 in attorneys’ fees from Andrea Davidovich. The federation claims Davidovich’s lawsuit
in New Jersey was frivolous because she could have pursued a remedy through figure skating’s inter-
national governing body.
That body, the International Skating Union, ultimately granted Davidovich’s request in the fall
of 2016.
The New Jersey court is due to rule on the fees dispute on Monday.
Brian Spector, an attorney representing the Israeli federation, said Friday his clients “feel as if the
plaintiff, her father and her counsel clearly knew that pursuing the claim in state court before they
exhausted their remedies before the ISU was wrong. They should have to pay the price for that.”

Scott Pruett to end 50-year
racing career after Rolex
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. — Scott Pruett,
one of the most prolific American sports car
racers in history, will end his 50-year driv-
ing career following the Rolex 24 at
Daytona this month.
He has a record 60 wins in American
sports car competition. His five Rolex 24
wins are tied for most with Hurley
Haywood.
Pruett, who turns 58 in March, also won
five titles when the series ran as Grand-AM,
and two championships under IMSA.
Pruett told The Associated Press of his
decision to call this year’s Rolex his last as
a driver before testing for the prestigious
event began Friday at Daytona
International Speedway. He said he will
continue to work with the Lexus, the manu-
facturer he teamed with to help develop and
promote the Lexus IS F performance sedan
and Lexus LFA supercar in 2008.
Pruett will compete in the Rolex on Jan.
27-28 with 3GT Racing. Pruett will team
with co-drivers Dominik Farnbacher, Jack
Hawksworth and David Heinemeier
Hansson in the No. 15 Lexus for the twice-
round-the-clock endurance race.

place — her best finish in four appearances.
That performance earned her a a spot in the
Northern California championships for the
second time in her career. In her final round
for the Knights, Siminoff tied for 22nd with
a score of 5-over 78, capping a prolific
high school career and earning her a third
straight Daily Journal Girls’ Golfer of the
Year honor.
“For me, personally, I wanted to finish off
my Menlo career with a nice, neat bow,”
Siminoff said. “It’s hard getting out of CCS.
Only four (individuals not on qualifying
teams) qualify. A lot of good golfers, who
don’t play for their schools because they
may not have a girls’ team, suddenly show
up (at CCS to try and qualify for state),”
Siminoff said.
And while Siminoff failed to make the
state tournament in her final try, she can
take comfort knowing that she made it to
the final four of the California Women’s
Amateur Championships this past July, a
grueling affair that included two rounds of
stroke play, followed by a round of match
SPORTS
MARKS
Continued from page 11
Given the fact the Bears played all their
matches on the road because of construction
on and around the tennis facilities, strong
leadership was even more important for M-
A this season, as they went on to capture a
seventh straight Peninsula Athletic League
Bay Division title. Marks’ status as an elite
player among a ton of good players on her
own team and around the rest of the league
gave her some weight as a team captain.
“I absolutely loved it. … [The team
aspect] is something you don’t get in
(junior tournament play). It was something
I hadn’t really gotten and it was one of the
best things about my high school experi-
ence,” Marks said. “I started (becoming a
team leader) last year. … This year, I had a
bigger role; worked with the coaches,
worked on uniform orders, planned prac-
tices efficiently, it was really fun.”
And she still had enough time to go and
prove to be one of the best players in the
PAL. If not for teammate Lanie Van Linge,
Marks could lay claim to be being the best
the league had to offer. And with Van Linge
in and out of the lineup — mainly because of
competitive reasons — Marks had the
play. After finished fourth in the stroke-
play portion of the tournament with a score
of 3-under 141, Siminoff advanced to the
semifinals of the match before succumbing
to Emily Wang, a top Stanford recruit, 6 and
4 — meaning Siminoff was down six holes
with only four left to play.
“It was my second match of the day. I was
down three holes after nine in the quarterfi-
nals, but came back to win in 19 holes,”
Siminoff said. “(Against Wang) I was
exhausted.
“I was the last non-collegiate player
standing. It was probably one of the best
tournaments I played.”
It was also during the California’s Women
Amateur that Siminoff truly came to appre-
ciate the high school game. She said she
was practicing on the driving range prior to
the start of the quarterfinals of match play
and she said it was eerily quiet. Just the
sound of hushed tones of caddies and players
talking, punctuated by the whoosh of golf
swings and the crack of the ball.
“There were eight golfers and eight cad-
dies. It was the most uncomfortable I’ve
ever been on a practice range,” Siminoff
said. “I really enjoy the nine-hole matches
(of high school contests). I have such good
friends, not only on my team, but on
opposing teams. There’s something relax-
chance to go against all the top players in
the PAL.
“She played every top player in the
league,” Sorenson said. “She also played
No. 1 for us in the very prestigious Stanford
tournament.”
When the postseason came around, Marks
teamed with Van Linge to win the PAL dou-
bles crown and advanced to the semifinals
of the Central Coast Section tournament.
“I’ve played a lot singles, in both tourna-
ments and high school. (Getting to play
doubles) just to mix it up was nice,” Marks
said. “We (Van Linge and I) had kind of
talked about playing together earlier (in the
season), how it would be a fun time to end
our high school careers.”
Unlike a lot of elite players, Marks did
not commit herself to tennis until the start
of high school.
“I played some other sports in middle
school,” Marks said. “I started focusing on
tennis in high school and my game jumped
a lot. I was concentrating, just putting in
more hours, and I grew (physically).”
Sorenson believes because Marks wasn’t
a tennis prodigy at an early age, it allowed
her to grow into being a strong player dur-
ing her high school career, which enabled
her to connect with other players on the
team more easily.
“I think it gives her empathy for the kids
who are blue-collar kids on the team.
ing about going out for two hours and work-
ing on your game.”
And while Siminoff plans to play colle-
giate golf at Princeton University, she
knows that will be the end of the line for her
as far as wanting to take a crack at going
professional. While Siminoff loves the
game of golf, it does not define her. She has
so many other irons in the fire, it’s amazing
she even has time to golf.
“My parents say I’m 18 going on 45,”
Siminoff said.
Her internship? As a private-equity ana-
lyst for Thompson Peak Capital. She
speaks five languages —  Hebrew, Arabic,
Chinese, Spanish and English and recently
published a children’s book in Arabic that
was distributed to refugees in Greece. She
plans on majoring in international rela-
tions in college.
“College golf is where it ends for me, but
it will be a huge part of my life as I move
into the workforce,” Siminoff said.
And she will already have the advantage
of playing with some-high powered people
in some high-intensity business-golf out-
ings. She’s already gotten a taste of what it
likes playing with financial movers and
shakers through her internships.
“The partners I golf with, it’s very com-
petitive. There is actually some trash talk-
THE DAILY JOURNAL
Oftentimes, that’s lacking in players who
are accomplished players at such an early
age,” Sorenson said.
While she may have empathy for her
teammates, she certainly does not have an
sympathy for her opponents. With long
arms and a tall frame, Marks has the game to
dwarf a lot of the competition. And along
with that comes a desire to compete.
“She loves it (competition). … She has
long arms, she’s very loose. She has lots of
leverage and she’s completely unafraid to
hit the ball aggressively. She’s not afraid to
make mistakes. She never takes her foot off
the gas,” Sorenson said. “She really has a
major-league arsenal. She hits the ball hard-
er than anyone in the league and is more and
more aggressive. There isn’t a single player
who played Julia last year who did not feel
absolutely threatened by her. … Her
chances to win don’t require her opponent
to have an off day.”
It’s that kind of talent and attitude that has
led Marks to commit to play tennis at
Bowdoin College in Maine, a goal Marks
set for herself at a young age. It wasn’t until
her junior year that it appeared that goal was
within her reach.
“I worked really hard for this,” Marks
said. “I was really happy when that (oppor-
tunity to play in college) came through.”
ing,” Siminoff said, who does her trash
talking with her clubs.
“They always think I’m going to play
from the women’s tee,” Siminoff said. “But
I play from the tips and then after they’re
down four (strokes) after two holes, they
reconsider (how good I am).
“It’s a different mindset when you’re play-
ing business golf. But golf is a very mental
game. You learn to deal with adversity and it
definitely teaches you to focus on your shot
and your shot alone.”
But all the different experiences Siminoff
has had in the game of golf has shaped the
person she has become. If not for the golf,
she would not have met some of her best
friends or had a chance to be a team leader as
she has been a team captain for the Knights
the last two seasons. And in her travels,
golf has been the common denominator.
“I found the unifying aspect of it all is
golf,” Siminoff said. “It’s a really special
sport because with golf, you get to make
friends from different parts of the world.
Some of my best friends in the world came
from being competitors (on the golf
course).”
Just don’t expect Siminoff to take it easy
on any of them when they step on the golf
course with her.

Patriots: No rift in the Kraft-Belichick-Brady triumvirate
By Kyle Hightower
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — On the field,
the defending Super Bowl champion New
England Patriots are right where they want
to be heading into the postseason.
As the AFC’s top seed and the owners of a
first-round bye, the 13-3 Patriots will get to
rest up during the opening weekend of the
playoffs. But as they prepare to begin their
latest run, their biggest opponent might be
the perception of a fracturing relationship
between arguably the franchise’s three most
important pieces.
The Patriots dismissed as “flat-out inaccu-
rate” a report suggesting a rift involving
owner Robert Kraft, coach Bill Belichick
and quarterback Tom Brady on Friday.
The three released a joint statement hours
after an ESPN report, citing undisclosed
sources, detailed an array of tension.
The story highlighted purported disputes
concerning Brady’s personal body coach,
Alex Guerrero, in player-medical affairs.
Also mentioned is a supposed difference
between Kraft and Belichick over the deci-
sion to trade backup quarterback Jimmy
Garoppolo. The story implied Brady has
taken issue with a lack of praise from
Belichick this season.
The statement said the three have had a
“very good and productive working relation-
ship” for 18 years and they regret having to
“respond to these fallacies.”

Brady and Belichick
both eschewed questions
last month about a chasm
between and Belichick
and Guerrero.
Belichick wouldn’t
address the validity of a
Boston Globe report that
Guerrero had been banned
Robert Kraft from the sideline or trav-
elling on the team plane,
but said “there are different relationships,
different situations with dozens of other
people.”
Brady also took issue with a reporter last
month who asked whether the quarterback
and Belichick had talked about an adjust-
ment to Guerrero’s access to the team.
“I have a lot of conversations with him.
Those are private between he and I, and I
don’t think anyone knows what we talk
about,” Brady said then. “Certainly I’ve
never talked about it. He’s never talked
about it.”
Despite the reported off the field issues,
the Patriots have thrived on it.
Even after losing receiver Julian Edelman
in the preseason to a knee injury and line-
backer Dont’a Hightower in October to a
season-ending pectoral injury, they enter
the playoffs with the NFL’s top-ranked
offense and a defense that is allowing just
18.5 points per game.
Brady is also an MVP candidate, and
passed Brett Favre for the most wins in one
Then after that he will head to Oakland with
the task of resurrecting Carr after a down year
and getting the Raiders back to the postsea-
son.
Oakland won 12 games in 2016 to earn Del
Rio a four-year extension but the team fell flat
this season. The offense regressed after the
decision to fire coordinator Bill Musgrave and
replace him with untested Todd Downing. The
defense struggled mightily before a late-sea-
son switch from fired coordinator Ken Norton

season for a quarterback
after turning 40 years old.
Still, there are questions
about Brady’s durability
heading in his 15th post-
season.
He threw for a league-
leading 4,577 yards pass-
ing and 32 touchdowns,
Bill Belichick but he also got hit a lot
more than he did last sea-
son (32 sacks in 2017 after just 15 in 2016).
It didn’t stop the Patriots from averaging
28.6 points. And certainly having a healthy
Rob Gronkowski, who missed last year’s
playoffs, has given the Patriots a huge lift
with 69 catches for 1,084 yards. Not to men-
tion the boost of offseason addition Brandin
Cooks with 65 receptions for 1,082 yards.
Minus a favorite target in Edelman,
receiver Chris Hogan (shoulder) and running
backs James White (ankle), Rex Burkhead
(knee) and Mike GIllislee (knee) have all
dealt injuries down the stretch.
And Brady himself showed some of his
first flecks of football mortality over the
final four games. He had four of his eight
interceptions during that stretch, and saw
his passer rating dip to as low as 59.5 in a
27-20 loss at Miami.
Brady threw just two interceptions in
2016 and had a passer rating below 89 only
once. But he also had the unexpected benefit
of resting for four games at the start of the
season because of his “Deflategate” suspen-
Jr. to play-caller John Pagano.
That led to the decision to fire Del Rio fol-
lowing his third season and go hard after
Gruden.
ESPN reported that Gruden will receive a 10-
year deal that could be worth close to $100
million. Gruden has already started putting
together a staff with Cincinnati defensive
coordinator Paul Guenther among those
expected to join.
Gruden told ESPN earlier this week that he
had a good talk with Davis about returning to
the organization and believed there was a
“good chance” it would happen.
Gruden spent four seasons as coach in
Oakland from 1998-2001. After leading the
Raiders to 8-8 records his first two years,
Gruden helped the team reach the AFC title
game following the 2000 season and got
Oakland back into the playoffs the following
season.
His tenure ended shortly after the “Tuck
Rule” loss to the New England Patriots when
he was traded the following month to Tampa
Bay for two first-round draft picks, two sec-

small basketball arena where they will soon
have to start living up to their star billing

“It was really good practice,” LiAngelo
said after being presented with the No. 3 jer-
sey. “I’ve decided to come over here and use
this opportunity. This is the place to be.
People love basketball here, the country
has great culture. I am ready to play.”
That could come on Tuesday in the 1,200-
capacity arena, with LaMelo wearing the
No. 1 jersey. Most tickets have already been
snapped up, without the fans knowing if the
American recruits will make their debuts in
the Baltic league game against Tsmoki-
Minsk.
The improbable one-year deals were
struck in December by father LaVar Ball,
who also created the Big Baller Brand of
clothing and sneakers.
“The hospitality is superb, ” he told
reporters. “You are talking very good
English to my boys and we appreciate that.
It’s a great experience to all of us.”
But the teenagers will now be ineligible
for college basketball. LiAngelo left UCLA

ing arrest during the team’s season-opening
trip to China. LaMelo was removed from

sion.
Whether related or not,
it was also during the
final six games of this
season that Brady began
dealing with both
Achilles tendon and left
shoulder issues.
Brady said this week
Tom Brady that his health is “good.”
“I mean, I’m hoping
next week I’ll feel just great and be 100 per-
cent ready to go,” he said. “So, I’m excited
for that.”
Jets coach Todd Bowles said while Brady
was less accurate late in the year, he thinks
it’s unfair scrutiny for a guy that is judged by
such a high standard.
“If he makes a tiny mistake everybody
jumps all over it, but the guy plays out-
standing football. I don’t worry about him
because he usually goes down and makes the
plays to win the games,” he said. “The guy
is one of the greatest to ever play the game
and he’s still doing it at a very high level.”
Brady said his mind hasn’t been far from
the football field this week.
“I think it’s just trying to stay sharp. You
know, it’s still football season, so it’s not a
week off at all,” Brady said Thursday. “We’re
trying to stay sharp and we’ve worked hard
to get to this point, but there’s still a lot
more to go. You know, we’re still writing
our story, and hopefully we write a good
one.”
ond-rounders and $8 million.
Gruden beat the Raiders in the Super Bowl in
his first season with the Buccaneers but didn’t
win another playoff game for Tampa Bay in his
final six seasons. He has a 95-81 career record.
The Raiders have complied with the
“Rooney Rule” and interviewed minority can-
didates for the job, according to NFL
spokesman Joe Lockhart. “I can tell you we
believe the Rooney Rule was complied with,”
Lockhart said. “Minority candidates were
interviewed and we will wait and see the deci-
sion they make.”
A second person with knowledge of the
team’s plans said one of the minority candi-
dates who interviewed was tight ends coach
Bobby Johnson. The person spoke on condi-
tion of anonymity because the Raiders were
not releasing the names of candidates.
This would not mark the first time the
Raiders brought back a coach for a second
stint. Late owner Al Davis hired Art Shell in
2006, 11 years after firing him the first time.
Shell went 2-14 that season and was fired after
one year.
Just how will his sons cope in the tough
domestic championship?
“We are not afraid to get hurt,” LaVar said.
“We are just too fast.”
Then, while signing a Lakers cap, a local
fan asked when all three Ball brothers would
be playing in Los Angeles. “2020,” their
father predicted.
This is the only team in the Lithuanian
league without foreign players and finished
sixth at LKL championship last year.
“This is great opportunity not only for
this club or Prienai town, but for entire
Lithuania which will be known better to
people abroad who probably never heard of
our country before, ” coach Virginijus
Seskus said after a ceremony at the Vytautas
arena where a large traditional tree cake was
presented to LaVar.
The coach has the seal of approval from
the boys’ father.
“He has energy,” LaVar said. “You don’t
have to speak English if you have energy.
He is not one of those rocket scientists who
just keep on talking all the time.”
Despite the festivities and accompanying
television crews, this foray into Lithuania
is being taken very seriously by the family.
La Var instructed staff of the spa resort they
are staying to replace all alcohol with milk
and mineral water in their rooms.
The town is putting a lot of faith in the
Ball brothers to lead BC Prienai to glory.
“Our team budget is modest,” Prienai dis-
trict mayor Alvydas Vaicekauskas, “but now
with these new players we may compete for
cups.”

‘In the Fade’ is a shape-shifting quest through a terrorist tragedy, as outraged as it is compassionate.
‘In the Fade,’ a seldom
seen face of terrorism
By Jake Coyle
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
It’s startling how few filmmakers have
tried to tackle terrorism with anything
beyond a standard procedural account. It’s
less surprising that one of the few to really
grapple with a response is Fatih Akin, the
German-born filmmaker of Turkish descent,
whose thorny, probing dramas traverse bor-
ders as a matter of course.
His latest, “In the Fade,” is Germany’s
Oscar submission and one of the nine films
shortlisted for best foreign language film. It
deservedly earned its star, Diane Kruger, the
best actress award at last year’s Cannes Film
Festival. And like the best of Akin’s films
(“Head-On,” “The Edge of Heaven”), it’s a
muscularly lean and emotionally raw film.

LOS ANGELES — Seth Meyers regularly
blends bad news with comedy on his night-

Golden Globes, he has the unenviable task
of setting the tone for Hollywood’s awards
season as the sexual harassment crisis con-
tinues spreading throughout the industry
and beyond.
Meyers signed on for the job after the
scandal broke in the fall, so he knew what
he was getting into.
“And my first instinct was, ‘Oh this is

preamble, Nuri, clad in a white suit, is
walked from his prison cell directly into his
wedding with Katja. It’s the kind of incon-
gruity Akin delights in. (His “Head-On”

It’s also just the first inversion of “In the

happy family life five years later. When
Katja returns to Nuri’s office one evening,
she encounters a road blocked by police.
Her initial horror is soon confirmed: both
Nuri and Rocco have been killed by a nail

The connection
between subjects
By Priscilla Jin
I
’ve always been frustrated with the
structure of my traditional schooling.
Since middle school, we’ve been
trained to pack all of our energy and pas-
sion for one subject into one compacted
hour; then, when the hour is up, quickly
pack up our bags and walk over to the next
one to extinguish our learning for that sub-
ject for the rest of the
day.
Each subject was
meant to be disconnect-
ed from the other; no
one dared muddle any
two spheres of learning
together. But when I
paid closer attention, I
saw that each subject
had a direct influence on the other. They
blend together like water colors swirl
together on a painting. I saw the symmetry
of shapes I learned in geometry when we
analyzed Roman architecture in my
European class; I found the relation
between slopes and tangent lines that I
mastered in my calculus class in the
physics lab when we tested the acceleration
of a toy car. I find more value in studying
how different areas of studies are inter-
twined rather than strictly categorizing
them. Creating a well-rounded person starts
with a well-rounded, interdisciplinary edu-
cation that explores the relationships
between each subject.
By definition, an interdisciplinary educa-
tion is when different disciplines work
together to serve a common purpose and to
help students make the connections
between different subjects. However, many
primary and secondary schools lack an
interdisciplinary approach to education and
instead design the school day so each hour
is designated to a certain subject. For me,
Spanish is in the mornings, physics is
right after lunch and history is at the end of
the day. Subjects and areas of study have
become associated with the time on the
clock. It’s no wonder many students com-
plain about the irrelevance of school sub-
jects. This structure of learning does not
promote the critical thinking that would be
required for future careers and success as
adults.
Conversely, interdisciplinary curricula

people worked really hard. A lot of people,
we’re realizing, worked really hard in envi-

working really hard. So the goal is to have
people have a wonderful night and an enjoy-
able party in a year which everyone
deserves it.

Bale, landscapes, boost
grim western ‘Hostiles’
By Lindsey Bahr
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Enemies are thrown together for a
perilous journey in “Hostiles, ” an
unforgivingly violent and sparse revi-
sionist Western set in 1892 that
explores the traumas of American
westward expansion.
There’s hardly a soul in writer-direc-
tor Scott Cooper’s ambitious odyssey
who isn’t haunted by some gruesome
incident of the past, whether it’s the
cavalry officers who slaughtered and
scalped untold numbers of natives, the
natives who slaughtered untold num-
bers of cavalry officers, or the young
settler family that goes from five
members to only one in the distress-
ing opening scene of the film. To say
this is a grim and difficult watch is an
understatement.
Christian Bale, who also starred in
Cooper’s gloomy “Out of the
Furnace,” leads a formidable ensemble
cast as a U.S. Cavalry Officer, Captain
Joseph J. Blocker, who is ordered to
lead an aging Cheyenne chief, Yellow
Hawk (Wes Studi), and his family from
a base in New Mexico to their home-
lands in Montana. Having had encoun-
ters with this man before, Blocker has
no interest in embarking on this
endeavor, convinced that Yellow Hawk
could only be a safe and trustworthy
companion dead. But this choice isn’t
up to him and he’s going to have to go

through with it whether he likes it or
not — so they assemble a crew (includ-
ing Jonathan Majors, Jesse Plemons
and Timothee Chalamet) and head off
on the trail.
It’s a premise that lends significant
and compelling tension to every
scene. Although not much is happen-
ing early on, it’s the threat of what
might happen that keeps you glued to
the screen and worried for all involved.
Will there be a misunderstanding? A
mistake? A scuffle that escalates too
quickly? Things are further complicat-
ed when group encounters a burned
down settlement and a grieving woman
shuttered inside. She is Rosalie Quaid
(Rosamund Pike) and has suffered near-
ly unspeakable loss. Blocker, likely
not knowing what else to do with the
possibly suicidal woman, takes her
along with them.
“Hostiles” takes its time getting its
characters across the over 1,000-mile
stretch of the United States, but it is a
gorgeous journey thanks to cine-
matographer Masanobu Takayanagi.
His camera makes even the most famil-
iar western milieus looks splendidly
fresh and invigorating. If only the
meandering story and dialogue were
matches for the pure poetry of the
scenery.
Cooper wrote the screenplay off of a
manuscript from the late Donald E.
Stewart (“Missing,” “Patriot Games”).

Oscar-winning filmmaker Paul
Haggis accused of rape, sex assault
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES — A civil lawsuit charging Oscar-winning
filmmaker Paul Haggis with raping a publicist has prompt-
ed three additional women to come for-
ward with their own sexual misconduct
accusations, including another publicist
who says he forced her to perform oral
sex, then raped her.
One of the other women speaking out
told the Associated Press that Haggis
tried to sexually assault her. “I need to be
inside you,” she recalled him saying,
Paul Haggis before she managed to run away.
Another of the new accusers said
Haggis held down her arms, forcibly kissed her on a street
corner, then followed her into a taxi. She said she later
escaped his clutches.
When asked about the new accusations, Christine Lepera,
attorney for the 64-year-old screenwriter of “Million Dollar
Baby” and “Crash,” said, “He didn’t rape anybody.”
Haggis has denied the original rape allegation in a count-
every word, and it’s hard not to wonder
er-complaint to the lawsuit, and said the accuser and her
lawyer had demanded a $9 million payment to avoid legal
action, which he characterized as extortion.
The plaintiff in the lawsuit, filed Dec. 15 in Manhattan, is
identified in court papers as Haleigh Breest.
if the impact is dulled as a result. That’s
not to say that there aren’t moments
that are deserving of this seriousness.
Indeed, Cooper has chosen to bite off
no less than the sins of the entire
American West and give voice and
compassion to everyone — the people
defending their lands, the settlers
looking for a new life, and those who
were “just doing their jobs,” even if
their jobs involve killing women and
children.
Actors like Bale, Pike, Studi and the
rest of the cast (even the clichéd cast-
ing of Ben Foster as an unhinged, out-
spoken criminal) elevate the dreari-
ness of the script with compelling dra-
matic performances. Bale especially
stands out as the gruff Blocker, whose
layers start to be exposed as the story
moves along. And, while she isn’t
given all that much to do, it is a treat
to see actress Q’orianka Kilcher, who
played Pocahontas opposite Bale in
“The New World,” back in a main-
stream film.
Bursts of intense violence are punc-
tuated with sometimes tedious blocks
of speeches and silence, but
“Hostiles,” despite its posture of bru-
tal amorality, has a goodness at its
core, of understanding and empathy. It
also has something that so many
sequel and franchise-hungry studios
today wouldn’t dare show — an actual
ending.

Kardashians 2.0: A primer on the next gen

By Leanne Italie
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — They Dream. They Reign.
One points North and another is a Saint.
We’re talking about the Kardashians 2.0
and their numbers are rising on the regular
as the reality TV and makeup mogul family
of Ks and Jenners gets busy with a baby
boom.
The only ones in the multimillion-dollar
matriarchy not interested in procreating at
the moment seem to be momager Kris
Jenner, who is 62 and has plenty of kids,
thank you, and supermodel Kendall Jenner,
a 22-year-old whirlwind of runway, editorial
and other work that has her traveling practi-
cally non-stop.
Kendall’s little sister Kylie Jenner had yet
to confirm whether she’s pregnant with rap-
per Travis Scott amid rumors the two are yo-
yoing, on again-off again style. But OG
older sib Kim Kardashian West, who
launched them all with a sex tape a decade
ago, has been sharing for weeks about her
third child with rapper Kanye West. Their
No. 3 is expected soon via surrogate after
potentially life-threatening complications
with Kim’s two pregnancies.
The most recent baby bombshell came
from Khloe Kardashian, who just days
before Christmas posted a sweet black-and-
white belly shot on Instagram with basket-
ball boyfriend Tristan Thompson that
served as their announcement, earning more
than 8 million likes.
Oldest sister Kourtney was swept into the
is-she-PG vortex early on and has men-
tioned on “Keeping Up with the
Kardashians” more than once that she’d like
to add at least one child to her existing three
with ex but never married to baby daddy
Scott Disick.
This time around, it appears Kourt — the
petitest Kardashian — might have merely
eaten a large meal at some point or gone
through photo editing heck on social media
at the hands of creepy bump watchers.
So what about all those second-gen little
ones already on this planet? Their numbers
have grown, so while we’re waiting for the
next round here’s a little primer of who
belongs to whom:
ROB KARDASHIAN’S DREAM
Between all those photos promoting his
sock line on Twitter, bro Rob has been a
prolific dad machine of adorable snaps of
his baby daughter Dream Renee, born Nov.
10, 2016, to Blac Chyna. Aside: Blac
Chyna has an older son, King Cairo, with
rapper Tyga, the former significant other of
Kylie. Further aside: Rob and Blac Chyna
are no longer together and never married.
KIM KARDASHIAN’S TWO
There’s North West, born June 15, 2013,
and baby brother Saint, who came along
Dec. 5, 2015. Both belong to hubby Kanye.
Among Kim’s pregnancy issues was a con-
dition that had the placenta growing into
her uterus. She also suffered from
preeclampsia, a serious condition marked
by high blood pressure. She struggled
through placenta accreta again with Saint.
KOURTNEY’S BROOD
Mason Dash Disick, 8, Penelope
Scotland Disick, 5, Reign Aston Disick, 3.
Kourt and Scott “The Lord” Disick — he
actually had himself lord-ed — never mar-
ried. Disick, a next-level party guy, has
expressed a desire over many of their 11
years to reunite with Kourt. Fat chance,
Kourt has declared. More than once. Scott
remains in the family. Current sitch: both
are with significantly younger people — he

with model Younes Bendjima, who used to
be friends with Sofia until the two stopped
following each other on social media a

talk about it with people who make you
laugh, and that is just a healthier way of
dealing with it... I think that’s part of what
we’ll be trying to do at the Globes, is: Hey,
ideally we wouldn’t be talking about this
stuff, but hopefully we can talk about it in a
way that will make us feel better about it as
opposed to reminding us how terrible it all

backstage for those three years. I will cer-
tainly go back and revisit their mono-
logues, because I felt as though they were as
good as they get. And I think the same can
be said for what Ricky (Gervais) did for the
show, because I don’t think the show was
even perceived this way until he took it
over. So I think going back and watching
those three hosts will be probably about all
the education we’ll need.

Mey ers : There is alcohol on the premis-

in. And it helps — you know, I’ve presented
a couple times at the Globes, and one of the
things that I do like about the Globes ver-
sus, say, the Emmys, is it’s just such a
shorter walk from the wings to the micro-
phone. That is really important, because
that long walk when people are watching
you and you have a very long way to the
microphone, that’s when I feel like self-
doubt really has a time to fester.

awesome. No, I like telling jokes, and ulti-
mately, when someone like me ends up
doing something like this, all I can pretty
much bring to it is jokes. I have so few
other skills. There won’t be a big number;
there won’t be any singing or dancing. So I
will say it is nice to know it’ll only be as
good as the jokes.

The program is open to entities like
schools, cities’ parks departments, non-
profits, churches and others looking to
boost their sustainability. Ideas to help edu-
cate youth about the importance of environ-
mental stewardship will also be considered,
said Eun-Soo Lim and Gerald Schwartz,
resource conservation specialists with the
county’s Office of Sustainability.
“There is a big emphasis for us on the
next generation. … A lot of studies show
the more that we can educate kids, the
younger you reach out, the greater the
impact,” Schwartz said. “Recycling, com-
posting, reusing, has that connection
through experiential education, which is
tion science standards, the new standards in
our public schools.”
The grants program also offers opportuni-
ties for adults looking to ease their burden
on the environment. Educating people
about product life cycles, the effects of con-
sumer culture and how to reduce their foot-
print is also important.
“That’s why we should be pushing for the
4Rs, because we are in Silicon Valley,
because there is so much especially elec-
tronic material that’s being used and hon-
estly being tossed around. For example all
the [cellphones] coming out, people switch
phones like they switch outfits,” Lim said.
“There’s a ramification, there’s a conse-
quence to that. So we want to educate our
community members on how to be more
responsible in their day-to-day lives, to be
more conscious of their choices and their
actions so they do reduce their footprint on
this planet.”
Fix-it clinics where people can learn to
repair instead of dump, as well as e-waste
disposal events are activities that have
become increasing popular in recent years,
they said. But there are a variety of opportu-
ty goals too.
Starting a composting program, funding a
school field trip or giving books on envi-
ronmental issues to children, bringing food
that might go to waste to local shelters, or
providing recycling bins are examples of
how the grant can be used.
The 4R’s program, which is being rolled
out again after a brief hiatus, stands for
reduce, reuse, recycle and rot-compost. It

pate announcing recipients by the end of
February. The $200,000 pot of available
funding is supported by fees collected at
local landfills, per statewide legislation,
Lim and Schwartz said.
The program is not open to traditional
corporate or for-profit companies, instead
it’s meant for those that may not have extra
resources to implement sustainability pro-
grams.
“Our priority is to target sectors within
the community that could benefit the most
make sure we’re able to provide them with
the right resources, tools and funding.”
Promoting sustainability has myriad ben-
efits, both environmental and financial.
For those concerned about their impacts on
climate change, composting or removing
organics from landfills helps curb methane
gas from going into the atmosphere,
Schwartz said. Cutting down on consump-
tion, reusing materials and not spending as
much for items that end up in the trash have
fiscal benefits for people and organizations
as well.
Whatever the reason is, Lim and Schwartz
noted there are benefits to being good stew-
ards of the planet and your community.
“By helping to reduce waste, community
members are also helping to combat climate
change. There are multiple layers of bene-
fits for helping to reduce waste that we want
to make sure we’re bringing to the fore-
front,” Lim said. “It helps to save them
money as well.”

growth and higher corporate profits and

At the same time, the pace of job growth
is slowing, which typically happens when
unemployment falls to ultra-low levels and
fewer people are available to be hired.

difficulty some employers face in finding
enough qualified workers, pay gains remain
sluggish. Average hourly earnings rose 2.5
percent in December from a year earlier —
about a full percentage point lower than is
typical in a healthy economy.
The December job growth, while modest,
underscores the economy’s continued
health. Last month’s pace of hiring is
enough, over time, to lower the unemploy-
ment rate.
The steady but unspectacular pace of hir-
ing and modest wage gains make it unlikely
that the Federal Reserve will feel compelled
to accelerate its pace of rate increases.
increases would have stoked fears that infla-
tion could accelerate and potentially have
nudged the Fed toward quicker rate hikes —
something many stock investors fear.
Investors seemed pleased and sent stock
prices up, one day after the Dow Jones
industrial average broke through the
25,000 mark for the first time.
“You’ve got the ‘Goldilocks’ pace for mar-
kets: Strong growth and low inflation,” said
Carl Tannenbaum, chief economist at
Northern Trust.
The unemployment rate for African-
Americans reached a record low of 6.8 per-
cent in December. And the jobless rate for
percent, also a record low.
The African-American rate is still much
higher than the rate for whites, which was
3.7 percent, or Asian-Americans, at 2.5 per-
cent. Blacks have long had a higher unem-
ployment rate than whites. But the gap is
now at its lowest level since 1972, when
the government began tracking the data,
according to Michael Feroli, an economist
at JPMorgan Chase.
Solid economic growth in both the United
States and major countries overseas is sup-
porting more hiring. Factory managers
received the most new orders in December
than in any month since 2004.

Sacramento area from 1999-2005. He filed paperwork Friday
to run for governor of California.

Ex-GOP congressman
enters governor race
By Kathleen Ronayne
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SACRAMENTO — Former U.S. Rep. Doug Ose filed

paperwork Friday to run for California governor, making
him the third Republican hoping to replace Democratic
Gov. Jerry Brown.
“I’m running to rebuild the California dream, and I’m pre-
pared to work with anybody to do that,” Ose said.
Ose said he will provide more details on his campaign
platform when he makes a formal announcement in the
coming weeks.
Ose, 62, represented the Sacramento area in Congress
from 1999 to 2005 and unsuccessfully challenged
Democratic U.S. Rep. Ami Bera in 2014.
He was widely viewed as a moderate while serving in
Congress. He later emerged as a strong backer of President
Donald Trump during the 2016 campaign, serving as a dele-
gate at the Republican National Convention.
He is jumping in to a field so far dominated by Democrats.
The two candidates that win the most votes in the June pri-
mary will go on to the November general election, regard-
less of party.
In the 2016 U.S. Senate race, Republicans were shut out
of the race, but turnout isn’t likely to be as high in a
midterm contest. Republicans are hoping an initiative to
repeal a new gas tax increase will drive GOP voters to the
polls.
The other Republicans in the race are businessman John
Cox of San Diego and Assemblyman Travis Allen of
Huntington Beach. Democrats running are Lt. Gov. Gavin
Newsom, former Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa,
State Treasurer John Chiang and former state schools super-
intendent Delaine Easton.
Beyond politics, Ose is a wealthy developer who helps
run a Sacramento park. He told the Sacramento Bee that
leaders are failing Californians on everything from taxes
and crime to infrastructure and education.
Also Friday, Cox announced he’s spending nearly
$80,000 for three weeks of radio advertisements. In the ad,
he accuses Brown and Newsom of “socking it to middle-
class taxpayers and small-business owners” and pledges to
halt a newly enacted policy that adds protections for immi-
grants living in the country illegally.
