San Bruno sinks whale mouth proposal
Councilmembers uphold previous rulings, disapprove of car wash installation
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
A unique, aquatic art proposal must swim
with the fishes, said San Bruno coun-
cilmembers who sunk a local gas station
owner’s attempt to mount a whale mouth
installation on his car wash.
The San Bruno City Council voted 4-1,
with Councilman Michael Salazar dissent-
ing, to deny Bobak Bakhtiari’s interest in
adding the mammal’s depiction to the car
wash at his Shell gas station near the inter-
section of El Camino Real and Sneath
Lane.
Citing safety concerns and perceived
incompatibility with the surrounding
area’s character, councilmembers upheld
previous dismissals of the project by the
city’s Planning Commission, according to
video of the Tuesday, Jan. 9, meeting.
“I’m concerned about the precedent, the
safety and the appropriate location,” said
Councilman Marty Medina, who feared the
installation would distract drivers.
He suggested the 250-square-foot agape
whale jaw designed to serve those driving
through the car wash already adorned with a
painting of dolphins, fish and turtles
would be a better fit in a local park.
Vice Mayor Laura Davis agreed with
Medina regarding the perceived threat of
establishing a slippery slope for approv-
ing art pieces which may not jibe with the
sensibilities of some.
“It’s just not the right place and the right
location,” she said. “I don’t want to see

something like this down the street.”
Not all shouted down the whale mouth
though, as a handful of residents expressed
their support for the piece.
“I don’t think it’s much of a distraction,”
said resident Robert Riechel, joining of
chorus of residents and proponents who
appreciated the creative endeavor.
For his part, Bakhtiari encouraged offi-
cials to view the piece as a vehicle deliver-
ing some artful whimsy to an intersection
he otherwise considered drab.
“I’d like to ask the council to delve deep
into the original vitality of childlike won-
der within and consider this for the kids and
community and give me an opportunity to
hash out the specific concerns and come up
with a design that can be appropriate,” he
said.
Bakhtiari, who lives part time in
Southern California where he works as an
actor, added he hoped the whale mouth
would boost awareness about wildlife con-
servancy causes, to which he donates a por-
tion of the station’s proceeds.
While officials initially expressed an
interest in granting Bakhtiari another
chance to reconsider his proposal and craft
a piece perhaps more suitable for the site,
councilmembers ultimately elected to end
the process.
“It just doesn’t fit, per our rules,” said
Medina, as councilmembers voted an out-
right denial of the application.
While most councilmembers shared con-
cerns that their approval would bring
more, similar proposals, Salazar expressed
a different perspective regarding precedent.
He feared rejecting the whale mouth could
have a chilling effect on large, creative
endeavors and that if officials broadly
opposed such efforts, that should be
reflected in the city’s code.
While admitting he was not an admirer of
the whale mouth design, he suggested he
supported the merit of the proposal.
“As a city, we do need to work with our
business owners to get certain things
done, and if we are sticklers to the letter of
the law in certain cases maybe we are doing
ourselves and the community a disservice,”
he said.
Mayor Rico Medina said in a later con-
versation, the decision against Bakhtiari’s
proposal should not be interpreted as an
unwillingness to embrace creativity, but
rather fortifying the belief that the site is
not the right spot for the whale mouth.
“For what it was to be in that area, it was
not in character, ” said Medina, who
expressed a commitment by officials to
keep an open mind to the application.
But despite the mayor’s sentiment,
Bakhtiari said he did not believe he was
treated equitably.
“This has been a baffling and elaborate
process,” he said. “I feel like I haven’t
been given a fair shake.”

San Mateo man detained
for DUI, hitting utility box
A San Mateo man was arrested Friday
morning for driving under the influence
after he crashed into a traffic signal utility
box in Pacifica, police said.
At approximately 3:45 a.m. officers were
dispatched to the intersection of state
Highway 1 and Rockaway Beach Avenue.
Investigators said the alleged driver, 24-
year-old Arnel Molia, caused the traffic sig-
nals to stop working correctly, according to
police.
Officers contacted the motorist on scene
and observed symptoms of intoxication.
After more examination, they determined
the driver had been drinking alcohol and
was placed under arrest.
The traffic utility box that Molia hit and
disabled was Caltrans property. They were
notified of the damage and traffic signals
were restored to proper functionality around
6:25 a. m. this morning, according to
police.

Despite good holiday
sales, retailers face
challenges in 2018
By Anne d’Innocenzio
and Christopher Rugaber
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Retailers are riding high
after ebullient U.S. consumers shopped at
the healthiest pace in more than a decade
over the holiday season. But merchants
can’t afford to rest easy.
None of the pressure on them has eased,
and the fight for customers’ attention will
only intensify. Retailers trying to hold
their own against an expanding Amazon
will have to keep sprucing up their stores
and investing in the quick delivery that
shoppers want. Those kinds of moves may
bite into their profits, but they’ll save
money from tax changes.
Store closures, already at a post-recession
high, could keep coming. And in a sign of
just how critical it is that stores get delivery
right, Walmart’s Sam’s Club says it’s con-
verting some of the locations it’s closing
into e-commerce fulfillment centers.
Companies trying to leverage their stores
may think about following.
Several retailers including Target, Kohl’s,
and J.C. Penney reported solid holiday sales
gains. Retail sales rose 0. 4 percent in
December, the Commerce Department said
Friday, after a 0. 9 percent surge in
November. Those figures include online
sales.
Spending for the two months combined
was the best since 2005, according to IHS
Markit, an economic consulting firm. Sales
at home and garden stores and at restaurants
and bars did well.
And the National Retail Federation trade
group said that by its measure, which
exclude sales from autos, gas and restaurants
and includes non-store sales like those from
catalogs, holiday spending rose a better-
than-expected 5.5 percent. That sailed past
NATION
REUTERS FILE PHOTO
the group’s original projections and marked
the biggest increase since the 5.2 percent
gain in 2010. Online shopping, which is
included in the results, increased 11.5 per-
cent.
“It was certainly a vibrant season,” said
Jack Kleinhenz, chief economist at the
NRF. “This will charge the batteries of con-
sumption for 2018.”
Kleinhenz believes the tax changes will
help to bump up spending this year. Stores
will be fighting hard for that spending, as
Amazon scoops up much of the growth.
Retailers have been re-examining ways to
use their stores.
Target has said that 70 percent of its
online sales in November and December
were fulfilled by stores that were used either
to ship online orders or as pickup points for
customers who ordered online. The compa-
ny is now shipping online orders from
1,400 of its 1,800 stores to offer faster
delivery.
Tom McGee, president and CEO of the
International Council of Shopping Centers,
says of those holiday shoppers polled who
ordered goods online and picked them up at
the store, 90 percent bought more once they
were at the stores.
And retailers other than Amazon are try-
ing to expand their options to offer same-
day delivery. Macy’s and Best Buy are using
startups like Deliv.
Target recently acquired Shipt, which will
mean same-day delivery services from about
half of its stores early this year. And
Walmart bought a startup called Parcel as it
aims to offer same-day delivery to New
Yorkers.
And Walmart, which has been buying
smaller online companies and trying to
strengthen its hand against Amazon, is con-
verting about 10 of the 63 Sam’s Clubs it is
closing into e-commerce centers.
Utility rates could go down
after U.S. corporate tax cuts
By Tim Talley
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
OKLAHOMA CITY — Public utility regu-
lators from Oklahoma to Massachusetts are
considering lowering the rates that home-
owners and businesses pay for electricity
and natural gas after a federal tax overhaul
signed into law by President Donald Trump
reduced the corporate income tax rate by 14
percent.
The tax overhaul that went into effect Jan.
1 lowers the highest corporate income tax
rate from 35 percent to 21 percent. Now,
regulators and consumer groups such as
AARP are demanding that the rates con-
sumers pay be rolled back.
Utilities are allowed to incorporate federal
income tax obligations into the rates they
charge customers. Exactly when and where
consumers might see savings remains to be
seen as regulators look into the matter.
SAVINGS FOR
UTILITIES IN THE MILLIONS
Oklahoma Attorney General Mike Hunter
estimates five public utilities operating in
the state will save at least $100 million a
year.
In Montana, regulators estimate utilities
will save tens of millions of dollars a year
in taxes.
In Maryland, where three utilities asked
that state’s regulators reduce utility rates to
reflect tax savings, Baltimore Gas &
Electric estimated that it alone will pass $82
million in tax savings on to customers.

Corporation Commission, which regulates
‘Mississippi Burning’ KKK
leader Killen dies in prison at 92
JACKSON, Miss. — Edgar Ray Killen, a
1960s Ku Klux Klan leader who was con-
victed decades later in the “Mississippi
Burning” slayings of three civil rights
workers, has died in prison at the age of 92,
the state’s corrections department
announced Friday.
The one-time Klan leader was serving
three consecutive 20-year terms for
manslaughter when he died at 9 p. m.
Thursday night inside the Mississippi State
Penitentiary. An autopsy was pending, but
no foul play was suspected, the corrections’
statement said.

public utilities in the state, said consumers
help pay a utility’s federal taxes every time
they pay their electricity or natural gas bill.
“It’s not fair to over-collect for federal
corporate income taxes,” Anthony said.
Montana Public Service Commission
Chairman Brad Johnson said the agency
“wants to ensure that this money is not sim-
ply captured by shareholders, but instead is
directed in a way that provides a long-term
benefit to the consumer.”
POTENTIAL
CUSTOMER SAVINGS ON HOLD
But many regulators are allowing utilities
to collect existing rates while they calculate
changes in their tax liability.
The Oklahoma Corporation Commission,
for example, voted to require utilities to
track savings from the tax cut and report it
to the commission within four months. The
commission also instructed companies to
create an account for the savings and refund
those savings to customers later.
But regulators in other states have sug-
gested the money could be used to help pay
for capital projects and offset large, unusual
expenses.
And some utilities are still seeking rate
increases even with the tax savings.
Stan Whiteford, a spokesman for the
Public Service of Oklahoma, an affiliate of
American Electric Power that’s seeking a
rate increase of $170 million, said the utili-
ty’s earnings are “far below the level that we
are authorized to earn by the commission.”
PSO favors “a more thoughtful and compre-
hensive approach” to dealing with the tax
savings, he said.

Has flu season, now in full
swing,reached its height?
By Mike Stobbe
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Flu is now widespread in every state
except Hawaii, but the good news is the season appears to
already be peaking.
It’s been a rough few weeks: Hospitals have set up tents
to handle patient overflow. Doctors are putting in double
and triple shifts. Ambulances have been sidelined while
paramedics waited to drop off patients.
“This morning, I couldn’t stand up. I was really weak,”
said Margaret Shafer, who went to a Seattle emergency room
this week after a bout with the flu was followed by pneumo-
nia.
But an update out Friday from the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention shows patient traffic for flu is no
longer skyrocketing the way it was in December.
“It looks like it’s starting to level out,” said the CDC’s
Lynnette Brammer, who oversees flu tracking.
Still, flu is unpredictable. “I don’t know where it will end
up,” she added.
Many flu seasons don’t really get going until around
Christmas, and don’t crescendo until February. That’s how
last year’s flu season played out. This season got off to an
early start and cases surged over the holidays.
Patients who went to the ER at Palomar Medical Center
Escondido, north of San Diego, then had to wait as long as
nine hours.
The hospital this week took down a tent it used to handle
the overflow but is still seeing a lot of patients with fevers,
aches, chills and other flu symptoms.
“We’re having to treat people in hallways, in chairs,
wherever we have space,” said Michelle Gunnett, the direc-
tor of emergency services.
There’s a tent in place at Kaweah Delta Medical Center in
the Central California city of Visalia, where doctors this
week have been pulling double and triple shifts to keep up.
“It’s like a MASH unit,” said Dr. Ed Hirsch, the hospital’s
chief medical officer.

Parents and students filled the
rooms of the community and recre-
ation center at 725 Monte Diablo
Ave. to hear King’s words reflected in
original works like that of third-grade
student Celia Hernandez’s essay. A
student at Audubon Elementary
School, Hernandez noted King’s
example of love over hate is needed
today, especially for those who are
not treated equally by others.
“We need Dr. King’s words so that
people will not treat others different-
ly,” she said. “The truth is we are all
the same and we can make a differ-
ence.”
Hosted by San Mateo’s North
Central Neighborhood Association,
the contest is now in its 35th year.
Anita Webb, the association’s secre-
tary, said the contest has always been
aimed at helping students express
themselves through writing and settle
their differences without conflict. But
she said this year’s theme,
“Reflections of Dr. Martin Luther
King Jr. today: 50 years later,” was
meant to elicit their reflections on
King’s role in the civil rights move-
ment and today, some 50 years after
his 1968 assassination.
“It’s conflict resolution and teach-
ing them to love,” she said. “It’s
exciting to see what the kids are say-
ing these days and standing up for one
another for equality and love.”
Webb said 180 elementary, middle
and high school students from the San
Mateo-Foster City Elementary
School District and San Mateo Union
High School District are vying for the
top spots in their grade level and cat-
egory this year. After preschool
through fourth-grade students shared
their work on Wednesday evening and
fifth- through 12th-grade students
competed Thursday night, Webb said
awards will be given to the first, sec-
ond and third place winners in each
category in an event Saturday, Jan.
13.

Villanueva has learned about King’s
work at school in previous years, he
said he was inspired to submit an
entry into the contest this year for the
first time after learning how powerful
of a teacher King was. He said he
explored the differences and similari-
ties between what it was like to live
during King’s lifetime and today in
his essay.
“I really wanted to be like him and
that’s why I’m here,” he said.
Though Villanueva was nervous
about reading his essay aloud in front
of an audience, he said his friend and
fellow fourth-grade classmate
Emanuel Guzman’s support was put-
ting him at ease.
For Ethel Burnside, the associa-
tion’s president, seeing some of the
same students return to the contest
year after year with new insights and
work is a key reason why she and
Webb have been involved with the
effort for more than 30 years.
“That in and of itself helps moti-
vate and keep us going,” she said.
“We have people that are in college
now and sometimes they come back
and speak to the kids.”
Contest judge Taja Henderson said
she’s been involved with the contest
for as long as she can remember, hav-
ing entered it as a student and served
as a judge for several years.
Addressing a group of third-graders
from Foster City’s Audubon
Elementary School after they shared
their essays Wednesday night,
Henderson said she hoped they
believed in their words as they left the
event.
“I was inspired tonight,” she said.

“I was inspired by your words of
hope, by your words of the impor-
tance of stopping bullying, how you
were talking about how we are all the
same and how we all need to come
together in unity.”
Hernandez’s parents, Jesse and
Analisa Hernandez, said they were
impressed by their daughter’s enthu-
siasm for the project and addressing
the public. Though they agreed the
contest was a great learning opportu-
nity for her, they noted they were also
affected by her words.
“It’s inspiring to hear her thoughts
on just her outlook on the world,”
said Analisa Hernandez.
For those looking to join in on
events honoring King, Caltrain
spokeswoman Tasha Bartholomew
said the Caltrain NorCalMLK
Celebration Train ride from San Jose
to San Francisco Monday morning is
set to bring Bay Area residents
together in remembrance of King’s
work as a leader. Aimed at paying trib-
ute to King’s 54-mile march from
Selma to Montgomery, the free train
ride will begin in San Jose at 9:45
a.m. and stop in Palo Alto and San
Mateo before arriving in San
Francisco by 10:55 a. m. With
singing and quizzes on black history
on the way to San Francisco,
Bartholomew said the event is set to
bring passengers of all ages into the
meaningful day.
“I think for many people, including
myself, Martin Luther King Jr. was a
very important figure in our American
history,” she said. “For me, I feel like
he represents a struggle for civil
rights and social justice which I think
is very relevant to the things that are
going on in this country now.”

Trump’s year: Mueller looms, Congress bickers over Russia
By Mary Clare Jalonick
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Republicans who spent
the early months of 2017 working with
Democrats on investigations into Russian
interference in U.S. elections have pivoted
as the new year begins and midterm elections
loom, leaving the conclusions of those con-
gressional probes in doubt.
As special counsel Robert Mueller has
ramped up his own Russian investigation
and brought charges against four of President
Donald Trump’s former campaign advisers,
Republicans have changed focus in their own
Russia probes. With Trump’s encouragement
as he nears a year in office, multiple GOP-led
congressional committees are now investi-
gating the FBI and whether the bureau con-
spired against the president during the cam-
paign.
With the exception of the Senate
Intelligence Committee, which has main-
tained bipartisan comity, it’s becoming
increasingly likely that Congress won’t be
able to agree on whether Trump’s campaign
was in any way connected to the Russian
meddling or on how to prevent a repeat of
Russia’s 2016 interference in future elec-
tions.
That turns mostly all the attention to
Mueller, who has expressed interest in inter-
viewing Trump in the coming months and
who has been a consistent thorn for Trump’s
presidency in the eight months since he
became special counsel. Mueller’s investiga-
tion is likely to go deep into 2018, if not
beyond, and could continue to loom over
Trump’s presidency as Republicans face

headwinds in their attempts to retain control
of both chambers of Congress.
This past week, the top Democrat on the
House Intelligence Committee blamed
Republicans for blocking witnesses who
Democrats say would be crucial to their
Russia probe, laying the blame on the com-
mittee’s GOP chairman, California Rep.
Devin Nunes, and on House Speaker Paul
Ryan. Republicans have indicated they want
to wrap up the investigation in the first part
of 2018.
In the Senate Judiciary Committee, which
is also investigating the Russian meddling,
Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein released
REUTERS
an interview transcript from the committee’s
investigation over the objections of
Chairman Chuck Grassley, saying she was
frustrated by Republican attempts to under-
mine the investigation. Grassley said he was
“confounded” by the move.
Trump tried to throw fuel on that disagree-
ment, calling Feinstein “sneaky” in a tweet
the next day and saying Republicans should
regain control of the investigation.
The partisan fighting is a breakdown from
last March, when Nunes and Schiff together
established parameters for the investigation
and each said it would be bipartisan. Grassley
and Feinstein also pledged last spring to
work together on the Judiciary committee’s
probe.
Republicans and Democrats on the House
Oversight and Government Reform
Committee were working together on an
investigation, as well, but that ended abrupt-
ly in June when the committee’s GOP chair-
man, Utah Rep. Jason Chaffetz, resigned
from Congress. South Carolina Rep. Trey
Gowdy became the committee’s chairman
and said he would leave the investigating to
Mueller.
Other bipartisan efforts have stalled, as
well. Republican Sens. Lindsey Graham and
Thom Tillis introduced bills with Democrats
this summer to protect Mueller in the event
that Trump moved to fire him. But a push to
pass that legislation has faded as
Republicans say they are less concerned that
Trump will try to oust Mueller.
As 2018 has begun, only the Senate
Intelligence Committee’s investigation
remains on bipartisan ground. Sen. Richard
Burr, R-N.C., and Sen. Mark Warner, D-Va.,
have worked closely together as panel staff
has quietly interviewed more than 100 wit-
nesses. But Burr has indicated the panel is
considering punting until later this year on
the question of whether the Trump campaign
colluded with Russia, issuing instead a bipar-
tisan report focused on election security as
the 2018 midterms get underway.
Democrats and Republicans on the House
Intelligence Committee are all but certain to
issue separate, bipartisan reports that will be
believed by members of their own parties.
The path of the Senate Judiciary Committee
is uncertain as Feinstein and Grassley have
disagreed on the focus of the probe.

Cybersecurity firm: U.S.

Senate in Russian hackers’ crosshairs
PARIS — The same Russian government-aligned hackers
who penetrated the Democratic Party have spent the past
few months laying the groundwork for an espionage cam-
paign against the U.S. Senate, a cybersecurity firm said
Friday.
The revelation suggests the group often nicknamed Fancy
Bear, whose hacking campaign scrambled the 2016 U.S.
electoral contest, is still busy trying to gather the emails of
America’s political elite.
“They’re still very active — in making preparations at
least — to influence public opinion again,” said Feike
Hacquebord, a security researcher at Trend Micro Inc., which
published the report . “They are looking for information
they might leak later.”
The Senate Sergeant at Arms office, which is responsible
for the upper house’s security, declined to comment.
Hacquebord said he based his report on the discovery of a
clutch of suspicious-looking websites dressed up to look
like the U.S. Senate’s internal email system. He then cross-
referenced digital fingerprints associated with those sites to
ones used almost exclusively by Fancy Bear, which his
Tokyo-based firm dubs “Pawn Storm.”

Burlingame, Aragon play to tie
Bearcat comeback
By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
When the final horn sounded to signal the
end of San Mateo’s thrilling 45-44 win over
Aragon, the Bearcats’ fans flooded the
Dons’ court as if they had just won a cham-
pionship.
Can’t blame the San Mateo students for
being a bit effusive in their celebration. It’s
not often they get to see their team rally
from a 10-point fourth quarter deficit and
win in the final minutes —but never quite
putting away the Dons.
“It’s just a natural rivalry, ” said San
Mateo head coach Marvin Lui. “All these
kids grew up playing with each other.”
The San Mateo players might have felt
like they won a title after dropping four of
their last five.
“We hadn’t been playing well,” Lui said.
It was nearly five out of six if not for a sec-
ond-half rally and while a 21-point fourth
quarter certainly helped the Bearcats’ cause,
they wouldn’t even had been in the position
to win if not for a ramped up defensive effort
in the second half. After having four steals
in the first half, San Mateo (1-1 PAL South,
8-6 overall) came up with four steals in the
third quarter alone and had eight for the half.
They still struggled to put the ball in the
basket — they only scored six points in the
third quarter — their defense limited Aragon
to only six points as well, giving San
Mateo a shot heading into the fourth quarter
down nine, 33-24.
As the fourth quarter started, Aragon (0-2,
6-7) went into stall mode, trying to milk
the clock. The snail pace worked in San
Mateo’s favor because it gave the Bearcats a
chance to catch their breath. They struggled
keeping up with the Dons in the first period
especially as they flew up and down the
court.
“Everyone was playing at a pace too
quick,” Lui said. “I thought they (the Dons)
were in a great flow in the first half. They
played at a pace that got us on our heels.
When they slowed it down, it definitely
helped us.”

high 14 points in the second half, got the

RIYADH, Saudi Arabia — Saudi women were
allowed into a sports stadium for the first time
Friday to watch a soccer match between two
local teams — though they were segregated in
the stands from the male-only crowd with desig-
nated seating in the so-called “family section.”
The move was the first of Saudi Arabia’s
social reforms planned for this year to ease
restrictions on women, spearheaded by the
kingdom’s 32-year-old crown prince. The king-
dom has also announced that starting in June
women will be allowed to drive, lifting the
world’s only ban on female drivers.
More than just an incremental step toward
greater rights, the presence of women in the
sports stadium underscored a wider effort to inte-

MILWAUKEE — The Warriors turned up

Kevin Durant scored 26 points, Draymond
Green added 21 and Golden State used a 13-4

With Curry still sidelined by a right ankle
injury, the Warriors clamped down on
defense and did most of their damage on the
other end in the lane.
Durant’s mid-range jumper gave Golden

Burlingame, Aragon play to scoreless draw

By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
It’s only the second week of the Peninsula
Athletic League boys’ soccer season, so it’s
still a bit premature to start labeling games as
“must-win.”
But when Burlingame traveled to San Mateo
to face Aragon, it was definitely more than just
a regular-season match. The two teams came
into the contest with a combined record of 5-0-
1 in Bay Division play and are already showing
that they will both be in contention for the Bay
Division title.
Nothing was settled, however, as they had to
settle for a scoreless tie.
Both teams had their chances. Aragon (2-0-2
PAL Bay, 4-2-4 overall) had two strong scoring
chances in the opening minutes, including a
one-on-one with the goalkeeper.
“It should have been 2-nothing (Aragon) the
first 15 minutes,” said Aragon head coach Greg
Markoulakis.
But Burlingame (3-0-1, 5-2-2) lamented its
missed opportunities as well.
“We hit the crossbar twice,” said Burlingame
head coach Anthony Dimech. “That’s how soc-
cer goes.”
If either team could be disappointed in the
result, it would be the Panthers because, after an
initial feeling out period, they controlled the
match and had the most scoring opportunities.
Burlingame outshot the Dons 8-2 in the second
half alone, with five of those on frame and
Aragon goalkeeper Alex Tapia making four
saves.
“We played well. We created chances,”
Dimech said.
After weathering Aragon’s push to start the
match, Burlingame settled into its game of pos-
session and passing —  something the Dons
just could not seem to find a rhythm for.
“We didn’t play that well today,”
Markoulakis said. “We didn’t find connections
to feet.”
Just past the midway point of the first half,
Burlingame’s first good scoring chance clanged
off the goal frame. Nikita Shpak triggered the
opportunity with a throw-in to Gabe Hyman,
who flicked the ball on with his head. Marcus
Grundmann came flying in and hammered a shot
off the volley that slammed off the crossbar.
It was just one of several chances off set
pieces for the Panthers. Just before half, they
had another shot just miss the net. After receiv-
ing a free kick from 45 yards out, Grundmann
sent the ball into the box which was partially
cleared by Tapia with a punch.
But the ball was never moved out of danger.
The ball came to the top of the box and a diag-
onal pass was sent to Robert Rochel on the
right side of the penalty box, only to see his
shot sail inches high over the goal.
Burlingame’s hard luck continued in the sec-
ond half. Hyman forced Tapia into a save just a
minute after halftime. The Panthers had a three-
shot sequence off a free kick come up empty in
the 49th minute as Milan Rosic’s shot hit hard
off the crossbar again.
Five minutes later, Hyman headed a ball just
over the top off a corner kick.
Aragon, meanwhile, was just trying to find
some kind of rhythm offensively.
“When things aren’t clicking, we look to
reduce touches to open things up,” Markoulakis
said. “And we didn’t do that.”
With about 10 minutes to play, Aragon creat-
ed its best scoring chance since the opening
minutes when Kofi Greene chased down a ball
deep in the Burlingame end. He had a step on the
defender, turned the corner and broke in on goal
from left side of the penalty box. He tried to sur-
prise the Burlingame goalkeeper by shooting
to the short side, but Evan Glatt had it covered
and was there to make the save.
Moments later, the Dons were awarded a free
kick from 50 yards out. Nicolas Demonico sent
a cross into the penalty box. Despite a mass of
bodies in front of him, Glatt kept his eye on the NATHAN MOLLAT/DAILY JOURNAL
ball and eventually corralled it. Aragon goalkeeper Alex Tapia, left, punches

off an Aragon defender and forced Tapia to push

Burlingame’s ensuing corner. “All I can ask for my guys to do is work hard
All in all, each team was happy to come away and create chances,” Dimech said.

Olympic boxing champ
Shields defeats Nelson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
VERONA, N. Y. — Two-time Olympic
boxing champion Claressa Shields scored a
unanimous 10-round decision over Tori
Nelson on Friday night at Turning Stone
Casino to retain her women’s WBC and IBF
super middleweight world titles.
Each of the three judges scored the fight
100-90 for Shields (5-0,
2 KOs), of Flint,
Michigan, who was near-
ly 20 years younger than
her opponent. The 41-
year-old Nelson (17-1-3,
1 KO), who won a mid-
dleweight world title in
2011 but had only fought
Claressa twice since June 2015,
Shields lost for the first time in
her career.
Nelson, of Ashburn, Virginia, took the
fight to Shields at the outset, but as the bout
wore on the young champion proved to be
the more skilled boxer, able to avoid
Nelson’s big hooks and using her jab to
keep her foe at bay.
Nelson did land a sharp body shot in the
seventh round as she put Shields on the
ropes and landed several more punches, but
the 22-year-old Shields, who likes to boast
she’s the greatest of all-time, managed to
dodge most of the hard punches and landed a
right hand that stunned Nelson and sent her
backward.
THE DAILY JOURNAL
In the final round, Nelson was swinging
wildly looking for a knockout while Shields
methodically landed punches to the head,
missing a couple of big ones. The fight
ended with a strong left hand from the cham-
pion.
Shields pummeled Nikki Adler last August
to win the two super middleweight titles.
That lopsided fight, Adler’s first loss in 17
bouts, was stopped in the fifth round.
Shields’ combinations left Adler defenseless
in a matchup of previously unbeaten boxers.
WBO and WBC middleweight champion
Christina Hammer (21-0, 9 KOs) watched
that bout near the ring, scouting potential
opponents. Shields said after her victory
Friday night, which was televised live on
Showtime, that she could easily go down in
weight to face Hammer, who is from
Kazakhstan and was there again to watch.
“I think she’s pretty scared, to be honest.
She’s more worried about me than I am her,”
Shields said after her win. “I can’t wait to
fight her and show her that she isn’t (better
than me).”
Shields is the first woman to headline a
fight card on premium cable, also doing so
in March and again in August on Showtime.
She’s also the only American, male or
female, to win a boxing gold medal since
Andre Ward captured one at Athens in 2004.
The only other U.S. boxer to win two
Olympic gold medals is Oliver Kirk, who
took the bantamweight and featherweight
titles at the 1904 Olympics in St. Louis.

“Family sections” are ubiquitous across the kingdom,
allowing married couples, direct relatives and sometimes
groups of friends to sit together, isolated from male-only
tables at restaurants and in waiting areas at banks and hos-
pitals. The sections also include women out on their own or
in groups with other women.
Although only 20 riyals ($5.33) a ticket, the family sec-
tion for Friday’s match was still less than half full.
“A lot of people wanted to wait and see how it is. Some
thought it wouldn’t be very safe or organized,” said Swick,
who attended the game with her Saudi husband and son, and
her American mother.
Swick, who grew up in Maryland and has been living in
Saudi Arabia for the past nine years, has attended football
games in the U.S. and soccer matches in France, but said she
was impressed with how organized Friday night’s match
was.
“I definitely think we will come back,” she said.
An Arabic hashtag on Twitter about women entering stadi-
ums garnered tens of thousands of tweets on Friday, with
some using the hashtag to share photos of female spectators
wearing their team’s colors in scarves thrown over their
black abayas.
While many welcomed the decision to allow women into
stadiums, others spoke out against it.
Some used the hashtag to write that women’s place should
be in the home, focusing on their children and preserving
their faith, and not at a stadium where male crowds frequent-
ly curse and chant raucously.
Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman is
seen as the driving force behind the loosened restrictions on
women. Still in place, however, are guardianship laws that
prevent women from traveling abroad, obtaining a passport
or marrying without a male relative’s consent.
Set to inherit a country where more than half the popula-
tion is under 25 years old and hungry for change, the young
crown prince has looked to boost his popularity by curbing
nearly four decades of deeply entrenched ultraconservative
influence. His reforms, which include allowing movie the-
aters to open in March after a more than 35-year ban, are
also aimed at creating more jobs and increasing local spend-
ing on entertainment as the country faces several more years
of budget deficit amid continued lower oil prices.
The country’s large, new stadiums were built with hundreds
of millions of dollars when oil prices were nearly double
what they are now. The government spent lavishly on them
in an effort to appease young Saudis and provide spaces for
fans eager to cheer on local clubs, as well as hold national
parades and ceremonies.
In a one-off, the stadium in Riyadh allowed families to
enter and watch National Day festivities in September —
marking the first time women had set foot inside.
In 2015, a Saudi woman who tried to attend a soccer game
in Jiddah was arrested after local media said she was spotted
by security officers “deliberately disguised” in pants, a
long-sleeve top, a hat and sunglasses to avoid detection.
Over the years, though, there have been some exceptions
for foreign women.
In 2015, an Australian female supporter of Western
Sydney Wanderers soccer club was permitted to attend a
match at Riyadh’s main stadium and a group of American
women traveling with a U.S. Congress delegation also
watched a local club match there.

Indeed, the battle of the PAL North
in 2017 came down to South City
and Half Moon Bay. But the
Warriors swept the season series,
winning twice in the regular season
and once in the PAL playoffs.
Friday the Warriors showed they
are still the team to beat in the
North, and their ability to adapt was
one of the big reasons why. Whereas
the Warriors solved the constant
defensive pressure, the Cougars did
not. Half Moon Bay totaled 30
turnovers in the game.
“We try to play teams aggressive-
ly,” Half Moon Bay head coach
Antonio Veloso said. “The problem
is, they are just as aggressive as we
are. But they’re also built stronger
than we are. So, I think us being
aggressive, they’re going to win
that battle.”
The other big reason why the
Warriors have been on top in the
North Division for three seasons
running is talent. Jerlene Miller, a
5-8 senior center, was a steady pres-
ence in the middle, totaling 12
points. Her performance was critical
with Cedeno off the floor for most of
the first half due to undisclosed rea-
sons, though Carion said it was the
most time his star point guard has
sat since joining the Warriors as a
transfer midway through her sopho-
more season.
And Cedeno’s talent is a game-
coast-to-coast to give South City
am 18-16 lead. It started what was a
10-3 Warriors run heading into the
break. Seven of those points were
Salise’s, including one of just two 3-
pointers by South City on the
night.
South City shot just 33.3 percent
(19 of 57) throughout, but in return
simply didn’t let Half Moon Bay
shoot. In the second quarter, the
Cougars had more turnovers (eight)
than shots attempted (six).
After the Warriors took a 40-28
lead into the fourth quarter, Half
Moon Bay found some offense late.
The Cougars dropped three 3-point-
ers in the game, all in the closing
quarter, and all with the game out of
reach. Sophomore Bella Dioli hit
two 3s, while Colucci added the
other en route to a team-high nine
points.
“In the beginning … we were
looking for layups more because our
fast break was working,” Half Moon
Bay junior Mailie Bowers said. “So
we were able to get it to our post.
Whereas the last quarter, they were
pushing up way harder. So then we
were able to get open looks on the
3.”
Whereas South City has its entire
starting five intact from last season,
Half Moon Bay graduated three sen-
iors from last season’s Central
Coast Section Division IV champi-
onship team — the first CCS title in
program history. Veloso said this
year’s squad is working on defining
its identity, which is stressing more
balance. Seven different Cougars
scored points Friday, with all of
them tallying in single digits.
The turnovers aren’t as alarming
as it might seem, Veloso said, who
pointed out the turnover-per-game
rate this season has actually
improved from last year.
“It’s a product of me trying to
make sure they keep being aggres-
sive, and then a product of that
learning curve, there’s aggressive
offense and then there’s the safer
play,” Veloso said. “And we don’t
know that one yet.”

Neeson rides again
in ‘The Commuter’

The tagline for the Liam Neeson Metro-
North thriller “The Commuter” — “Lives are
on the line” — feels like a missed opportu-
nity. I would have gone with: “The quiet car
is about to get loud.”
It’s been ten years since Neeson’s unlike-
ly reign as the movies’ best action hero
began with “Taken” — the little Paris kid-
napping that unlocked Neeson’s special set
of skills. What has followed has been a
decade of lean, blunt and glum thrillers
(three “Taken” movies, “Non-Stop,” “The
Grey”) anchored by the looming and still
quite potent presence of Neeson.
Neeson has suggested that, at 65, he’s
nearing the end of the line. So “The

ou just got rejected from the top
college on your list, and suddenly,
your life is over.
After all, earning a degree from a four-
year university is the only way to lead a
successful life, right?
Wrong.
As the college application season of my
senior year comes to a close, the college
decision season begins
with the release of early
decision and early action
application results.
Although many students
in my high school com-
munity have been
accepted to their num-
ber-one choices, those
who face rejection let-
ters are often blinded by the stigma against
alternative routes to a four-year university.
As an individual who plans on attending
a four-year college, I am aware that it may
seem hypocritical for me to write about
such a topic. But after looking around at
my friends who struggle with college rejec-
tions, I’ve noticed how normalized the
route of attending a four-year university has
become. However, according to the U.S.
Bureau of Labor Statistics, in October
2016, only “69.7 percent of 2016 high
school graduates were enrolled in colleges
or universities.”
Attending a four-year college is not the
only option for high school graduates. In
an affluent and academically-driven region
like the Bay Area, it may seem that every
student is working toward the same goal:
going to a prestigious university, earning a
degree and working a stable job after gradu-
ating. But after taking a closer look,
there’s much more of a variety from the
stereotypical Bay Area student than one
might believe.
I have friends who attend and plan on
attending community college for two years
and then will transfer to a four-year univer-
sity after their sophomore years. I have a
friend who took a gap year after high
school to travel abroad and make extra
money before enrolling in a four-year uni-
versity. I have classmates who plan on
enlisting in the military.
There are numerous options for high
school graduates, even beyond the exam-

posed bond measure to rebuild the city’s
levee, but officials have noted there’s a range
of needs.
Foster City is well above — almost double
— its minimum reserve goal of having a
rainy-day fund ranging from 33.5 percent to
50 percent of its annual budget. City offi-
cials will be asked to reconfirm that goal, and
consider whether keeping expanded reserves
should be policy, as well as how to possibly
spend the unallocated public funds.
The heaviest debate may center on plans to
raise Foster City’s levee as it strives to meet
federal mandates or face being pulled into a
flood zone. The city is slated to ask voters to
pay more in property taxes to fund that $90
million project through a general obligation
bond. While a city report suggests using all
of its excess reserves to pay down the bond
would only save the average homeowner
about $62 a year, some residents contend it’s
only fair taxpayers see a benefit.
Alternative prospects, such as contribut-
ing toward a workforce housing project, is
also sparking opposition by residents frus-
trated with the impacts of growth. The citi-
zens group Foster City Residents for
Responsible Development has been vocal in
urging the council to pay down the levee and
return funds to taxpayers, noting allocating
$20 million could save property owners 22
percent.
City Manager Kevin Miller said the coun-
cil has “tough decisions, tough discussions”
ahead but urged everyone to remain respectful
and recognize a shared love for the city.
some people are focused on a single project,
he has to consider all of the options and what
kind of impact the funds can have. 
“We have to explain that there’s a bigger
picture here that we have to look at,” Hindi
said. “I don’t think it’s wise to invest all the
money in one single project, especially if
there are other needs that need to be met.”
Other projects that may come forward in
the coming months or years include building
a new community center, estimated to cost
upwards of $27 million, in place of Foster
City’s aging recreation center, a 1970s facil-
ity that otherwise might need millions of
dollars in repairs. Another early prospect
could be for the city to construct a workforce
housing project. That stems from developer
Sares Regis Group’s ongoing effort to rezone
its portion of the master-planned Pilgrim
Triton to allow for housing in lieu of com-
mercial space. In an effort to sweeten the
deal, Sares Regis has offered to give the pub-
lic land and work with the city on a city-
owned development. Still very preliminary,
it could cost the city upwards of $13 million
to fund construction. In a similar vein, the
city is considering allocating $2 million
toward an employee home loan program.
Another looming need is pension liabili-
ties that have grown to over $69 million,
according to a staff report.
Hindi and Vice Mayor Gary Pollard said
they’d like to look at ways to support the
community while being mindful of current
and future needs.
“I believe government should be as lean as
possible,” Pollard said. “If there’s money, I
want to find ways to quote-unquote give it
back to the residents. That doesn’t mean I
want to lower the bond or not lower the bond,
but I want to make sure we’re doing the right
The levee
At the crux of the debate is how much of an
effect allocating reserves could have on
reducing taxpayers’ costs toward the levee.
The city is striving to avoid being declared a
flood zone by the Federal Emergency
Management Agency, which could result in
many property owners being forced to buy
costly flood insurance.
City officials contend raising the levee
protecting the 4-square-mile community is
the most significant infrastructure project
since Foster City was built. Last year, after
hiring an expert to review financing
options, the council decided to ask property
owners to fund the $90 million project with a
general obligation bond.
Estimates suggest the average homeowner
would pay $278.80, through an estimated tax
levy of $41 per $100,000 of assessed prop-
erty values. A staff report shows an analysis
of using excess reserves to pay down the
bond. A $10 million allocation would reduce
taxpayers annual assessment by just under
$31, and a $20 million contribution would
offer almost $62 back to homeowners,
according to the report.
Commercial property owners, including
the major corporations headquartered in
Foster City, will also contribute to paying
off the bond and would save money should
reserves be returned.
Citizens group
But considering the length of the 30-year
bond and the fact assessed property values
increase over time, Bob Cushman, a leader of
the citizens group Foster City Residents for
Responsible Development, estimates tax-
almost $3,400 for homes assessed between
$680,500 and $900,000 over the life of the
city’s loan. Cushman contends the city
shouldn’t hoard reserves to avoid needing
voter approval for other projects, such as a
new community center.
Excess reserves “should not be used to
avoid the two-thirds vote needed to raise
money for large capital projects. Ideally,
excess reserves should be returned to the peo-
ple in some equitable way,” Cushman said in
an email.
He said Foster City already holds itself to a
higher reserve standard as compared to sever-
al other neighboring jurisdictions and wants
the council to be required to consider the pros
and cons of returning excess funds to taxpay-
ers. Plus, the $20 million allocation could
save homeowners 22 percent, Cushman said.
Hindi and Pollard said officials have
reviewed the impact of using the funds to pay
down the bond and both floated the term
“compromise” ahead of next week’s meeting.
Pollard also clarified any city-owned work-
force housing project would be retained by
the public and the cost paid back through
rent over time. They also noted using the
excess reserves would benefit corporate
property owners as well.
Still, what’s considered the greater good
may be up for debate.
“We’re not looking for ways to spend
money because it’s burning a hole in our
pocket, it’s public money,” Hindi said. “But
I encourage us to have a global look. … If we
invest in our community, the quality of life
will benefit for the future.”

no means am I against going to a
four-year university. However, what
must be addressed is the stigma
against not adhering to this main-

take a different route after high school

one who earns a college degree. In the

standing that there are more opportu-
nities than what I initially believed.
Attending four-year universities
should not be the expectation for
high school graduates. If a rejection
letter comes in the mail this season
for you or someone close to you,
here’s a friendly reminder that there
are countless other options instead of
attending a four-year university.
Now open on Saturdays!

strategy may be very different.
The star of “The Cosby Show” is charged
with knocking out accuser Andrea Constand
with pills and sexually assaulting her at his
home near Philadelphia. He has said
Constand, a former executive with Temple
University’s women’s basketball program,
consented to their sexual encounter.
“This is about whether you believe the
victim or not, and the events of the last
year certainly make the case harder for
Cosby,” said Philadelphia criminal lawyer
Alan J. Tauber, who isn’t involved in the
case. “Ordinary people are seeing people
they respect and trust undermined by terri-
ble accusations.”
Calls and emails seeking comment from
Cosby’s lawyers weren’t returned.
During his first trial, the comedian’s
lawyers portrayed Cosby and Constand as
lovers who had enjoyed secret “romantic
claims.
The lawyers reminded jurors she waited a
year to contact the authorities and suggest-
ed her story evolved during interviews with
police. They also noted Constand made
dozens of telephone calls to Cosby, who
was a member of Temple’s board, after the
alleged assault.
“This isn’t talking to a trustee. This is
talking to a lover,” former Cosby lawyer
Brian McMonagle said of one call that last-
ed 49 minutes. “Why are we running from
the truth of this case — this relationship?
Why?”
In a case like Cosby’s, in which the evi-
dence is primarily testimonial and not
physical, credibility is key.
Diane Rosenfeld, a lecturer and director of
a gender violence program at Harvard Law
School, believes the floodgates of victim
support opened after the Weinstein allega-
tions and not after Cosby’s accusers came
forward for two reasons: perceived credibil-
ity of the victims and the likability of the
accused.
“Bill Cosby had been such a treasured
accessible view of a successful African-
American family,” she said. “He was such a
loveable public presence, his accusers did-
n’t have as much power collectively or pub-
lic notoriety as victims in the Weinstein
case.”
As the #MeToo movement gained
momentum, the accused lost jobs, TV
shows, book deals and a Senate seat. Kevin
Spacey was even erased from a completed
movie.
“I think the shift is here to stay,” said
Carol Tracy, executive director of the
Women’s Law Project in Philadelphia. “It
might not be on the front page next year,
but I do think it will have a significant
impact going forward in the criminal jus-
tice system and on how jurors view these
cases.”
Constand’s lawyer said she was floored to
hear Cosby’s comment about the #MeToo
movement.
“Apparently Mr. Cosby still believes
sexual assault is a laughing matter,” said
attorney Dolores Troiani. “You have to
hope he is alone in that opinion.”
identify people alleging sexual assault
unless they grant permission, which
Constand had done.
Montgomery County District Attorney
Kevin Steele, who is retrying Cosby, said
in a statement he hopes one of the positive
outcomes of the trial is that sexual assault
victims feel they can be heard.
“And for a number of reasons,” he said,
“that seems to be happening now across
the country.”
Geragos said the cultural shift might
make it easier to get a jury from a defense
perspective, because a lot of people who
might have been pro-prosecution will self-
disqualify by saying they can’t be fair in
the current climate.
Some people feel the pendulum has
swung too far in targeting men, he said, and
those are the types of jurors the defense
needs to tap into.
It will be difficult to find 12 people to
acquit Cosby in the current climate, predict-
ed Tauber, the Philadelphia criminal lawyer.
“Victory,” he said, “might just be anoth-
er hung jury.”

NEESON
Continued from page 19

explains that McCauley will make $100,000 on his ride

home if he can only find the person on the train “who does-
n’t belong.”
McCauley, as he soon discovers, has stepped into the
plot of an absurdly powerful syndicate that will use him to
ferret out a crucial FBI witness. The gaps in the story’s
logic aren’t to be minded. The web around McCauley is mys-
terious. And for Cold Spring, a few stops past McCauley’s
usual one, to be epicenter of such intrigue is curious. But
then again, even the Feds deserve a bit of antiquing and a
brisk hike.
Most eyebrow raising for the 1.6 to 3.1 million who
trudge into and out of Manhattan everyday will be an unfor-
giveable incongruity in the train’s otherwise largely accu-
rate path. It makes various subway stops through
Manhattan, when every commuter since the time of
“Revolutionary Road” knows it runs straight to Harlem. It’s
the kind of inaccuracy that will cause untold swarms of
strap-hangers to throw their MetroCards at the screen.
But Collet-Serra, whose “Non-Stop” similarly relished
the confined space of an airplane cabin, is too interested
with swooping his camera through the train to care much
about the blur on the outside. But he knows well how to
shoot Neeson, following the actor’s hulking frame from car
to car.
Their movies are, in part, parables for the terrorism age.
Like in “Non-Stop,” where Neeson played an air marshal,
the protagonist of “The Commuter” must wrestle with the
morality of uncovering the one threat in a sea of maybe-
innocent, maybe-guilty faces, some of them “regulars”
(daily riders), some of them unfamiliar. As before, Neeson
is a lone warrior trying to stay decent in a fallen world. With
pandering references to the big banks throughout, “The
Commuter,” has just enough smarts to make its final desti-
nation disappointing.
The old equation of man-plus-locomotive has been a
dependable one for the movies since Buster Keaton rode the
rails in “The General.” (See also: Burt Lancaster in “The
Train,” and Denzel Washington in “Unstoppable.”) “The
Commuter” isn’t in that class, but there are worse tickets to
punch, especially in January. Such a woeful time of year for
new releases warrants repeating the old warning: If you see
something, say something.
“The Commuter,” a Lionsgate release, is rated PG-13 by
the Motion Picture Association of America for “some
intense action/violence, and language.” Running time: 104
minutes. Two stars out of four.

Film depicts birth of New York’s Lincoln Center
By Mike Silverman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Resplendent in a plaid tur-
ban, green cowl-neck muffler, pearl neck-
lace and silver-ridged earrings, an icon of
opera sits in a straight-back chair and remi-
nisces about her career.
Leontyne Price (who turned 90 after this
interview was conducted) is astonishingly
precise in her memory as she discusses
opening the new Metropolitan Opera House
at Lincoln Center in 1966 and making a his-
toric debut at the old Met five years before
that.
Price is the unquestioned star of a docu-
mentary by Susan Froemke that blends
operatic and architectural lore with an
overview of New York’s social and political
history in the 1950s and ’60s.
“The Opera House,” a two-hour film with a
soundtrack from the Met’s own archives,
will be broadcast to movie theaters world-
wide Saturday as part of its “Live in HD”
series.
Froemke said she didn’t know what to
expect when she went to the Baltimore area
where Price now lives for the interview
early last year.
“Nobody knew what her memory would be
like,” Froemke recalled. “But the moment
she walked in the door, she was just on fire.
It would have made a great opening because
she went right over to the mirror and began
to perfect her makeup.”
Once settled into her chair, Price chatted
for 2 1/2 hours. “She has an ironclad mem-

the stories she tells, she remembers the
nuanced details of everything that happened
to her related to the opening, or her debut.
“The hardest part was not laughing
because she’s so humorous,” she said. “She
grew up in Mississippi and so she’s got this
oral tradition of being a great storyteller
and her wit is just killing.”

• Razing an entire neighborhood. Several
blocks of tenements that were home to
thousands of people were bulldozed to make
room for Lincoln Center at the behest of
Robert Moses, the city’s development czar.
Froemke sees it as “the beginning of his
downfall. ... People began to realize that
when you annihilate an entire community
in the name of progress, that’s a pretty big
price to pay.”
• Cold War rivalry with the Soviets. The
creation of a new performing arts center
became a propaganda weapon — a way of
showing that America stood for more than
capitalist materialism. Froemke said the
bankers and society moguls who made up
the Met’s board “wanted to make New York
the cultural capital of the world and they saw
this as their opportunity. Berlin was
destroyed, Paris was having a very difficult
time, London had been pretty much
destroyed.”
•  Wallace Harrison. The new Met’s chief
architect wanted to build a daringly mod-
ernist house, “almost like something out of

not seated as vice mayor. I think she’s
doing a great job,” she said.
For her part, Schneider said after the
meeting she felt uplifted by the sup-
port from her fellow residents.
“People speaking for what happened
to me on Nov. 28 — which was the
most horrible and humiliating experi-
ence of my life — is heartwarming,”
she said.
The comments came in the wake of
councilmembers voting to approve
naming Gina Papan mayor during the
City Council’s annual rotation discus-
sion late last year, but leaving Papan’s
former vice mayor seat vacant.
According to protocol awarding the
vice mayor’s position to the second
highest vote getter in the most recent
City Council election, Schneider
would have been the preferred candi-
date to fill Papan’s former seat.
During the reorganization meeting
though Schneider nominated herself to
become vice mayor, and could not find
a second vote in support, so the
motion died. A subsequent effort to
nominate Councilman Wayne Lee suf-
fered a similar fate, and the City
Council has gone since without a vice
mayor.
Residents called for a public hearing
to be set addressing the matter, invit-
ing a dialogue between officials which
could not be held during Tuesday’s pub-
lic comment session.

kind of criminal activity to the police

es things like diversion, theft or loss
occurring due to criminal activity.”
The owner of the dispensary on West
Manor Drive reported the alleged bur-
glary around 12:20 p.m. Jan. 9. It was
not immediately clear why police
weren’t notified earlier and Clements
said authorities don’t currently have a
suspect description. As it moves
toward new rules, Clements said the
city has been conducting outreach to
educate business owners about the
ordinance and benefits of increasing
safety through surveillance systems.
Legal marijuana businesses will be
required to provide a site security
plan, including video surveillance and
signs indicating such a system is in
place. The footage must also be turned
over at the request of police, who are
urging systems that provide high-
quality images. Every owner and
employee must also pass a criminal
background check and fingerprinting.

Mayor Gina Papan indicated after the
meeting such a wish is unlikely to be
granted, considering the variety of siz-
able residential and commercial devel-
opment projects councilmembers are
slated to examine in the coming
weeks. She did express a willingness
to reconsider the matter at the request
of her colleagues.
“If two members of the council would
like this to be brought up again, I’m
more than happy to put it back on the
agenda,” she said.
Schneider said she does not expect a
majority of her fellow councilmembers
to change their mind.
“I think we are going to go a year
without a vice mayor,” she said.
Assuming Schneider is correct, City
Council meetings from which Papan is
absent would proceed as scheduled so
long as a quorum of three councilmem-
bers is present, according to city staff.
Those present would only need to
select a councilmember to temporarily
preside over the meeting.
Officials have been guarded in their
justification for keeping Schneider
from the vice mayor’s position, only
indicating she has conducted herself in
a manner unbecoming of a council-
woman.
To that end, during the rotation
meeting, Councilwoman Anne Oliva
said Schneider does not deserve a pro-
motion which would put her in line to
become mayor.
Residents during the most recent
meeting called for more details regard-
ing councilmembers’ reluctance to
support Schneider as vice mayor.
Loitering is also to be discouraged
outside the property and windows as
well as doors cannot be covered or
tinted. The application process costs
about $1, 000 and businesses are
required to deposit $10,000 per loca-
tion as well, according to Pacifica’s
application.
Marijuana operations are prohibited
from also selling tobacco or alcohol,
and cannot be located within a 600-
foot radius of schools, day cares or
youth centers. The city allows for
both dispensaries and testing opera-
tions in properly-zoned areas, accord-
ing to the city’s ordinance.
Currently, pot businesses in
Pacifica are not allowed to sell recre-
ational marijuana but can continue
serving medicinal clients. The city’s
police department has a four-part
application process. The deadline to
file an application was Jan. 10, and
the process may take a few months
before the police chief issues a mari-
juana use permit. All operations must
also have a state license, according to
the city.
Pacifica is one of the few cities in
San Mateo County allowing recre-
ational marijuana operations follow-

WEEKEND JOURNAL
“Many of us would like you to clear
the air and hold a public hearing on the
council rotation protocol, including a
full discussion of the actions taken on
[Nov.] 28, the inadequacy of the pres-
ent protocol and the need to expand
and codify the process so this don’t
happen to other people,” said resident
Sandra Mangold.
Resident Jean Wong’s criticism of
officials’ decision was even more
direct, suggesting that going without a
vice mayor is not in the best interest
of the community.
“From my perspective, it does not
appear that a majority of the current
councilmembers have demonstrated
they are capable of governing
Millbrae in a way that reflects a true
understanding of, or a respect for, the
wishes of the citizens,” she said.
Resident Todd Repp also suggested
officials owe it to the public to pick a
vice mayor.
“Twenty-two thousand people want
to know who is going to be the mayor
next year,” he said. “It’s a fair ques-
tion.”
For Schneider, she said she hopes
the contentious issue is a catalyst for
civic engagement in Millbrae.
“I want to see the public learn how to
take their power back, and if it means I
have to go through this then I will go
through this. I would prefer to be vice
mayor and I deserve to be vice mayor
and I would prefer to be mayor next
year. But in the long run, we will have
a more engaged people of Millbrae and
that is the best outcome. I just wish I
wasn’t the victim of it,” she said.
ing voters’ 2016 approval of
Proposition 64. While the coastal
city has long allowed medicinal dis-
pensaries, it is one of the few in the
county to approve regulations that
would allow stores to sell the drug for
recreational purposes as well.
Recreational businesses are required
to be licensed by the state, and cities
have adopted their own rules too.
Pacifica is in the first phase of licens-
ing marijuana businesses following
the city’s approval of new rules and
nearly 79 percent of voters agreeing
last year to implement a locally-con-
trolled tax on pot sales.
Proposition 64 legalized recreation-
al marijuana for adults 21 years and
older, and allows people to grow up to
six plants for personal use. Cities
have taken a variety of approaches in
response, including most in San
Mateo County passing local regula-
tions restricting marijuana to the
greatest extent possible under the
statewide law.
San Mateo County is in the midst
of reviewing its own applications

Haiti ‘shocked and outraged’ over Trump remarks
REUTERS
Haiti’s President Jovenel Moise, center, and first lady Martine
Moise, right, greet attendees during an event in
commemoration of the eighth anniversary and day of
remembrance for the people killed on the island by a
devastating earthquake, in Port-au-Prince, Haiti.
NATION/WORLD
By Evens Sanon
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti — Haitians reacted with outrage
Friday to reports that President Donald Trump questioned
why the U.S. would accept more immigrants from Haiti and
“s—hole countries” in Africa at an Oval Office meeting held
on the eve of the anniversary of the 2010 earthquake, one
of the deadliest disasters in modern history.
President Jovenel Moise’s government issued a strongly
worded statement denouncing what it called a “racist” view
of Haitian immigrants and people from African countries.
“The Haitian government condemns in the strongest
terms these abhorrent and obnoxious remarks which, if
proven, reflect a totally erroneous and racist view of the
Haitian community and its contribution to the United
States,” it said.
Trump was in a closed meeting with members of Congress
to discuss immigration on Thursday when he reportedly
questioned why the U.S. would accept more people from
Haiti and “s—hole countries” in Africa, rather than places
like Norway.
At first the White House did not deny that the remark was
THE DAILY JOURNAL
made. On Friday the president tweeted
that his language was “tough” but insist-
ed he did not say anything derogatory
about Haiti aside from noting it’s a poor
country.
Haitians at home and abroad were
stunned, and Internet message boards and
radio stations were flooded with angry
and anguished comments.
Donald Trump “It’s shocking he would say it on the
anniversary,” said 28-year-old Natacha
Joseph, who was selling rice and beans from a basket near
the general hospital in downtown Port-au-Prince. “I will
ask Jesus to protect Haiti from the devil, and Trump is the
devil.”
Motorcycle taxi driver Jean-Paul Maxon said he was
angry that the president seemed to be unaware of Haiti’s
proud history as the first independent country founded by
freed slaves.
“Trump will not last in office,” Maxon said. “He attacked
the wrong nation.”
The government statement also pointed to history, not-
ing that Haitian soldiers fought on the American side
against the British in the Revolutionary War and in the War
of 1812.
“The relationship between the two countries has been
strengthened by the fact that millions of sons and daughters
of Haiti have contributed and will continue to contribute to
the prosperity and greatness of America,” it said.
Haitian Sen. Youri Latortue said the reported remarks were
also galling because they came just before the United States
marks the birthday of civil rights leader Martin Luther King
Jr. on Monday.
‘Reprehensible, racist’:
Trump outrages Africans
By Cara Anna
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
JOHANNESBURG — Africans were shocked on Friday to
find President Donald Trump had finally taken an interest in
their continent. But it wasn’t what people had hoped for.
Using vulgar language, Trump on Thursday questioned why
the U.S. would accept more immigrants from Haiti and “s—
hole countries” in Africa rather than places like Norway in
rejecting a bipartisan immigration deal. On Friday he denied
using that language.
The African Union continental body told the Associated
Press it was “frankly alarmed” by Trump’s comments.
“Given the historical reality of how many Africans arrived
in the United States as slaves, this statement flies in the face
of all accepted behavior and practice,” AU spokeswoman
Ebba Kalondo said.
Some African governments found themselves in an awk-
ward position. As top recipients of U.S. aid, some hesitated
to jeopardize it by criticizing Trump, especially as his
administration has sought to slash foreign assistance.
“Unless it was specifically said about South Sudan, we have
nothing to say,” South Sudan government spokesman Ateny
Wek Ateny told the AP.
But Botswana’s government called Trump’s comment “rep-
rehensible and racist,” saying the U.S. ambassador had been
summoned to clarify whether the country was regarded so
poorly after years of cordial relations. Senegal’s President
Macky Sall said he was shocked and that “Africa and the
black race merit the respect and consideration of all.”
Around the nation
Trump partly denies, also
defends vulgar immigrant comments
WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump on Friday
offered a partial denial in public but privately defended his
extraordinary remarks disparaging Haitians and African
countries a day earlier. Trump said he was only expressing
what many people think but won’t say about immigrants
from economically depressed countries, according to a per-
son who spoke to the president as criticism of his comments
ricocheted around the globe.
Trump spent Thursday evening making a flurry of calls to
friends and outside advisers to judge their reaction to the tem-
pest, said the confidant, who spoke on condition of
anonymity because he wasn’t authorized to disclose a private
conversation. Trump wasn’t apologetic about his inflamma-
tory remarks and denied he was racist, instead, blaming the
media for distorting his meaning, the confidant said.
However, critics of the president, including some in his
own Republican Party, spent Friday blasting the vulgar com-
ments he made behind closed doors. In his meeting with a
group of senators, he had questioned why the U.S. would
accept more immigrants from Haiti and “s—hole countries”
in Africa as he rejected a bipartisan immigration deal, accord-
ing to one participant and people briefed on the remarkable
Oval Office conversation.
