State assemblywoman faces
fresh misconduct allegations
By Kathleen Ronayne
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SACRAMENTO — Assemblywoman
Cristina Garcia was hit Wednesday with
fresh allegations of misconduct in her
office, including frequent discussions about
sex and alcohol consumption at the
Capitol.
San Diego lawyer Dan Gilleon filed a for-
mal complaint with the Legislature detail-
ing the allegations on behalf of four anony-
mous former employees in Garcia’s office.
He said they will cooperate with an inves-
tigation but do not want their names to be
public at this time for fear of retribution.
The complainants allege that Garcia regu-
larly talked about her sexual activity,
including with other members, in front of
staff. They also allege Garcia drank alcohol
while doing official Assembly business and
pressured staff to join her in drinking at the
office or at bars.

Homicide suspected at
Gray Whale Cove State Beach
San Mateo County sheriff’s deputies
found a dead man in the parking lot of Gray
Whale Cove State Beach early Wednesday
morning.
Deputies responded around 1 a.m. and
found the man, who had injuries on his face
and upper part of his body, and the death was
ruled as a homicide, according to the
Sheriff’s Office.
A man in the area had car trouble and

down on the ground and called police,
according to San Mateo County sheriff’s
Detective Sal Zuno.
Investigators have not yet identified the
body, and there is currently no suspect or
witness information.
The homicide occurred in California State
Parks jurisdiction, and the San Mateo
County Sheriff’s Office is assisting them
with the investigation. Gray Whale Cove
State Beach is just south of Pacifica.
Anyone with information about the inci-
dent is encouraged to call Detective Andy
Hui at (650) 363-4066. The anonymous tip
line can be reached at (800) 547-2700.

San Mateo police conducted a thorough

SAN FRANCISCO — A Stanford

DENVER — Interior Secretary Ryan
Zinke is pressing ahead with a massive
overhaul of his department, despite grow-
ing opposition to his proposal to move
hundreds of public employees out of
Washington and create a new organization-
al map that largely ignores state bound-
aries.
Zinke wants to divide most of the depart-
ment’s 70,000 employees and their respon-
sibilities into 13 regions based on rivers
and ecosystems, instead of the current map
based mostly on state lines.
The proposal would relocate many of the
Interior Department’s top decision-makers
from Washington to still-undisclosed
cities in the West. The headquarters of some
of its major bureaus also would move to the
West.
The concept — supported in principle by
many Western politicians from both parties
— is to get top officials closer to the natu-
ral resources and cultural sites they manage.

Mitt Romney is planning a campaign with a laser-focus for Utah’s Senate seat and will suggest
that Washington has much to learn from the state.
Romney focusing Senate
bid on Utah, not Trump
By Michelle L. Price and Steve Peoples
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SALT LAKE CITY — Mitt Romney is
preparing to announce a bid for Utah’s
Senate seat held by retiring Orrin Hatch, a
position some hope the 2012 GOP presiden-
tial nominee will use to continue his biting
criticism of President Donald Trump.
Romney, who once called Trump “a
phony” who was unfit for office, is not
expected to address the president in an
announcement video he has prepared for
release online, according to people with
direct knowledge of his plans.
Romney had planned to release the video
on Thursday, they said, but he tweeted
Wednesday night that he would not make an
announcement about Utah’s Senate race
because of the deadly school shooting in
Florida. It wasn’t clear when he would
reschedule his announcement.
Expected to be a heavy favorite to win
Hatch’s seat, Romney is planning a cam-
paign with a laser-focus on Utah and will
suggest that Washington has much to learn
from the state the former Massachusetts
governor now calls home, said those with
knowledge of his plans.
“I think Mitt’s going to make it very clear
that he’s not running for the Senate because
of or in spite of anything to do with Donald
Trump,” said Spencer Zwick, Romney’s for-
mer fundraising chief who now leads
fundraising efforts for House Speaker Paul
Ryan. “I think Mitt Romney would be run-
ning for the Senate whether Donald Trump

was the president or Hillary Clinton was the
president.”
Romney’s small team of longtime advis-
ers plans to maintain a low profile. Having
turned down repeated requests for national
media appearances in recent days, Romney
is carefully designing his campaign launch
to avoid media questions about Trump.
Those with knowledge of his plans spoke
on the condition of anonymity because they
weren’t authorized to speak publicly.
Romney, one of the most famous
Mormons, is widely liked and respected in
Utah, which is heavily Mormon. He attend-
ed Brigham Young University in Provo,
helped turn around the scandal-plagued 2002
Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City and made
Utah his primary home after losing the
2012 presidential election.
In addition to his name recognition,
Romney has a deep network of fundraisers
and his own personal wealth to help carry
him. Those close to him suggest he will
not seek financial aid from any super PACs
or Washington-based campaign commit-
tees.
If he becomes Utah’s next senator, some
supporters hope that the one-time Trump
critic could serve as a political and moral
counterweight to a president they see as
divisive, erratic and undignified.
Kirk Jowers, the former chairman and gen-
eral counsel of Romney’s leadership PACs,
said Romney “will always be a straight
shooter” and will speak up and the support
the president when he takes actions that are
good for America.

Trump denounces abuse; Kelly’s future in doubt

By Jonathan Lemire and Zeke Miller
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — President Donald
Trump at last broke his silence Wednesday
to explicitly denounce domestic violence
in the wake of allegations that a top White
House aide had abused two former wives.
Chief of staff John Kelly, under fire for mis-
handling the matter, stayed largely out of
sight, his future in doubt and the White
House in tumult.
The chaos surrounding the departure of
aide Rob Porter put a harsh spotlight on
Kelly, the retired general who was brought
on last summer to instill military-like dis-
cipline in the free-wheeling West Wing.
Questions persisted about what and when
Kelly knew about the abuse allegations
against Porter, who resigned as staff secre-
tary last week after the accusations became
public.
West Wing aides have had their faith in
the chief of staff shaken, and morale has
plunged to levels not seen since last
spring’s firing of FBI Director James
Comey and the August uproar over Trump’s
refusal to denounce white supremacists
after the violence in Charlottesville,
Virginia.
This White House scandal erupted initial-
ly without the president’s involvement.
Donald Trump declares his opposition to domestic violence during a working session regarding
the Opportunity Zones provided by tax reform in the Oval Office.
But Trump fed the fury last week when he
defended Porter and questioned the
(hash)MeToo movement that sprang up in
recent months to protest the mistreatment
REUTERS
of many women.
In Trump’s first comments after Porter
resigned, he praised his former aide. Next,
he appeared to cast doubt on the ex-wives’
allegations by tweeting: “Peoples lives are
being shattered and destroyed by a mere
allegation.” Finally, on Wednesday, Trump
said the words that Democrats and
Republicans alike had been listening for:
“I am totally opposed to domestic vio-
lence and everybody here knows that,”
Trump told reporters in the Oval Office. “I
am totally opposed to domestic violence of
any kind. Everyone knows that, and it
almost wouldn’t even have to be said. So
now you hear it, but you all know it.”
The denunciation of domestic violence
was greeted with relief by some West Wing
aides. But a sense of unease about Kelly’s
fate persisted.
For months, Kelly — with help from
Porter — had established a semblance of
stability in a White House often rattled by
an unpredictable president. That has eroded
in a week’s time, as accounts about the han-
dling of the Porter matter continue to shift
and some aides come to believe Kelly lied
to save face and save his job.
Trump has complained to confidants that
Kelly let the scandal spin out of control and
that the constantly shifting narratives
make the White House — and, by exten-
sion, Trump himself — look amateurish
and incompetent, according to one person
familiar with the discussions but not
authorized to discuss them publicly.

Watchdog’s report faults
VA chief over Europe trip expenses
WASHINGTON — Veterans Affairs Secretary David Shulkin
improperly accepted Wimbledon tennis tickets and his staff
lied that he was getting an award in order
to justify his wife accompanying him at
taxpayer expense on an 11-day European
trip that mixed business and sightseeing,
according to a blistering government
investigation released Wednesday.
The 87-page report by the VA’s internal
watchdog said Shulkin should reimburse
the government more than $4,000 for his
David Shulkin wife’s airfare and accused his top aide of
doctoring emails to falsely represent that
Shulkin as being honored in Denmark, inventing a rationale
for his wife’s free travel.
“The investigation revealed serious derelictions” by
Shulkin and his staff, said the report, which cited “poor judg-
ment and/or misconduct.”
The findings are the latest in a series of controversies
involving expensive or wasteful plane travel by top Trump
administration officials. President Donald Trump’s health
secretary, Tom Price, resigned in September after questions
arose about his use of private jets for multiple government
trips.

Group of senators reach immigration deal on Dreamers, wall By Alan Fram and Kevin Freking
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — A group of senators
reached a bipartisan agreement Wednesday
aimed at balancing Democrats’ fight to offer
citizenship to young “Dreamer” immigrants
with President Donald Trump’s demands for
billions to build his coveted border wall
with Mexico, lawmakers said.
Though the measure sprang from around
two dozen senators with centrist views on
the issue and was winning support from
many Democrats, it faced an uncertain fate.
Leaders were trying to schedule votes on
that plan and three other immigration pro-
posals for Thursday, which they hoped
would bring the chamber’s showdown over
the hot-button issue to a close.
While not specifically mentioning the
bipartisan pact, Trump urged lawmakers to
oppose any plan that doesn’t meet his more

There were also qualms among
Democrats. The party’s No. 2 Senate leader,
Richard Durbin of Illinois, said some
Democrats had “serious issues” with parts
of the plan. Those concerns focused on its
spending for Trump’s wall and its bar
against Dreamers sponsoring their parents
for legal residency.
“We’re not there yet,” Durbin said of the
60 votes the proposal would need for
approval.
So far, no other proposals from either
side seem able to do that. Republicans con-
trol the chamber 51-49, though Sen. John
McCain, R-Ariz., has missed the last sever-
al weeks while battling cancer.
The bipartisan proposal emerged as sena-
tors spent a third day of debate largely as
they spent the first two — with the chamber
floor mostly empty. Other than an initial
roll call allowing formal debate to begin,
there have been no other votes while party
leaders talk behind the scenes about sched-
uling votes on specific proposals.

Immigrants warned about

Florida travel as arrests soar
By Adriana Gomez Licon
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MIAMI — More than a dozen advocacy groups issued a

warning about traveling in Florida on Wednesday saying
immigration arrests there have soared more rapidly in the
past year than in any other area of the country.
Leaders from immigrant rights and nonprofit organiza-
tions said new cooperation between Immigration and
Customs Enforcement and 17 Florida sheriffs is also spread-
ing fear in the state.
The travel advisory issued by 15 groups warns immi-
grants from other states to reconsider Florida trips or to be
ready to encounter immigration agents at airports, sea ports
and bus stations.
“We are taking the step of warning our communities that
as the Florida lawmakers, state, local and federal do not take
steps to push back against the anti-immigrant policies, we
do not feel like our communities are safe in the state,” said
Tomas Kennedy, deputy political director at the Florida
Immigrant Coalition.
The advisory comes as Florida braces for its busy spring
break season in March, when its beach resorts and theme
parks attract millions of people.
The government estimated more than 4 million travelers
from Canada and other countries arrived from January to
March in 2017, compared with almost 27 million visitors
who came from other states.
Activists staged several rallies across the state
Wednesday, including at Greyhound bus stations — where at
least two recent Border Patrol arrests of passengers were
caught on cellphone videos. Federal lawmakers have
demanded a review of searches and seizures in the 100-mile
(160-kilometer) zone near borders and coasts.

South Africa’s President Jacob Zuma looks down as he speaks at the Union Buildings in Pretoria,
South Africa.
Scandals finally catch up
with South Africa’s Zuma
By Christopher Torchia
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
JOHANNESBURG — As scandal after
scandal unfolded, South African President
Jacob Zuma maintained an affable demeanor
in public, rallying his support base, dis-
patching lawyers to fend off court chal-
lenges and, it is alleged, enabling his cor-
rupt associates.
Finally, the astute political operator whose
on-stage dancing and singing delighted loy-
alists ran out of options, his reputation shat-
tered by revelations of systemic graft in gov-
ernment. Abandoned by once-steadfast allies
in the ruling party, Zuma was forced to resign
Wednesday, ending a presidential tenure of
nearly a decade, much of it marred by ques-
tions about his conduct and character.
Zuma has denied any wrongdoing. But the
steady flow, and then flood, of allegations of
impropriety on his watch reinforced a sense
that South Africa had failed to live up to the
hopes of its young democracy when
apartheid ended in 1994.
Certainly, South Africa’s economic
inequity and other sweeping problems could
not be pinned on any one person, and Zuma
could point to significant improvements
since the end of white minority rule, includ-
ing during his presidency. But the culture of
corruption and impunity that flourished in
his orbit could take years to overcome.
In these complex times, newspaper newsrooms continue
to produce the most trusted journalism available
anywhere, thanks to teams of dedicated, professional
reporters and editors. That’s why more than 100 million
Americans pick up a newspaper every day. So impress
your family, friends and co-workers by enjoying the

WORLD
REUTERS
As public opinion turned against Zuma,
some members of the ruling African National
Congress party began to see him as a risk to
its hold on power ahead of 2019 elections.
His appearances in parliament turned chaotic
as protesting opposition members were
removed from the chamber.
The growing discontent over Zuma was
evident in 2013 when mourners booed him
during a Johannesburg stadium memorial for
Nelson Mandela, South Africa’s first black
president and global statesman.
Before that, Zuma had presided over one of
democratic South Africa’s proudest periods —
the staging of the World Cup soccer tourna-
ment in 2010. He was also leader during one
of the most horrifying events — the fatal
shooting by police of several dozen protest-
ers during labor unrest at a platinum mine in
Marikana in 2012.
Despite his fumbles and periodic scandals,
Zuma was remarkably resilient and showed a
deft touch during his career. In 2007, he beat
then-President Thabo Mbeki in a race to lead
the ANC party, opening the way for him to
become president in 2009.
Zuma, 75, was born in what is now Kwa-
Zulu Natal province, which later became a bed
rock of support for the ruling party. South
Africa was in the grip of apartheid during his
youth, and he joined the armed wing of the
ANC in 1962 after the anti-apartheid move-
ment was banned.
Israel’s Netanyahu no
stranger to scandals
By Josef Federman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
JERUSALEM — Prime Minister Benjamin
Netanyahu, fighting for his political life
after being accused of taking bribes from
billionaire supporters, is no stranger to
scandal.
Over a three-decade political career,
Netanyahu has been accused of everything
from accepting improper gifts to spending
too much public money on ice cream to
wasting tens of thousands of dollars on a
custom-fitted bed for a five-hour flight to
London. Close confidants and even family
members have also come under suspicion.
With cat-like deftness, Netanyahu has
always managed to escape prosecution. But
the latest scandal may be the most serious
threat yet to his lengthy rule.
Police announced late Tuesday that there
was sufficient evidence to indict Netanyahu
for bribery, fraud and breach of trust in a pair
of cases.
In the first, he is suspected of accepting
nearly $300,000 in gifts, including cham-
pagne and fancy cigars, from Hollywood

Stocks climb again as investors shake off worries

By Marley Jay
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Investors saw
some new hints that inflation is
increasing on Wednesday, but they
still sent banks, technology firms,
and consumer-focused companies
climbing. That was a big change
after the market’s inflation-
inspired plunge earlier this
month.
After a shaky start, stocks rose
for the fourth straight day, and
banks made some of the largest
gains as bond yields reached new
four-year highs. The move in
yields came after the government
said consumer prices climbed in
January a slightly faster pace than
economists had expected. A differ-
ent government report showed
retail sales were unchanged in
December and slipped last month.
“I think the fears of the econo-
my overheating have been a little
bit balanced out with the combina-
tion of these two numbers,” said
Katie Nixon, chief investment
officer for Northern Trust Wealth
Management. “The bond market is
not suggesting that runaway infla-
tion is a deep concern.”
Stocks began plunging Feb. 1
after the Labor Department said
wages grew at a rapid clip in
January. Investors worried that that
meant inflation was rising and that
it would push the Federal Reserve
to start raising interest rates more
quickly, making it more expensive
for people and businesses to bor-
row money. That would slow down
economic growth as well growth in
as corporate profits. Nixon said
that Wednesday’s reports show
inflation probably isn’t rising that
fast.
The Standard & Poor’s 500 index
rose 35.69 points, or 1.3 percent,
to 2,698.63. The Dow Jones indus-
trial average added 253.04 points,

By Jose M. Romero
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. — Johnny Cueto’s
offseason included time tending to cows,
chickens and goats on his 500-acre ranch
back home in the
Dominican Republic.
And it included a decision
to stay with the San
Francisco Giants rather
than opt out of his con-
tract and give up $89 mil-
lion in guaranteed money
to become a free agent
again.
Johnny Cueto The 31-year-old right-
hander missed 1 1/2
months last season with blister-like tender-
ness in his fingers and a forearm strain, and
finished 8-8 with a 4.52 ERA in 25 starts.

A striker Nic Jandeleit, who set up the Bears’
first goal and scored their second.
“We wanted to show them who’s boss.”
Burlingame (9-1-3 PAL Bay, 30 points)
was at less than 100 percent as the Panthers
were missing their starting middle fullback,
who had to sit out because of a red card in
their last game. The Panthers had a couple of
communication errors and M-A (8-2-3, 27)
took advantage.
“We had to adjust our back line and we got
“I never told them anything. They were
just thinking that I was going to stay,”
Cueto said, “and I stayed because I like the
team.”
San Francisco is coming off a 98-loss sea-
son in which both Cueto and ace Madison
Bumgarner were hurt, the latter missing
three months following a dirt-bike accident.
Bumgarner is known to do hard labor on his
horse ranch in North Carolina.
“I’m not that kind of cowboy,” Cueto said
through a translator.
Cueto’s arrival at spring training last year
was delayed due to his father’s health issues.
He reported in time for the start of workouts
Wednesday.
“It’s great to see Johnny wants to contin-
ue his career as a Giant,” Giants manager
Bruce Bochy said. “Considered one of the
best starters in the game, we are glad that he
will be helping us bounce back in 2018.”

It was a bad day for unbeaten
boys’ soccer teams Wednesday.
The Rams dealt the Cougars their
first Ocean Division loss of the
season, as the same time M-A was
handing Burlingame it’s initial
Bay Division defeat of the year.
The game was tied at 1 at half-

three second-half goals.
Gio Hamilton gave HMB (12-1
PAL Ocean, 36 points) a 1-0 lead in
the first half, off an assist from
Antonio Vega.
But Westmoor would find the
equalizer before halftime.
Michael Whitlach scored the
Cougars’ second goal, with Maury
Alvarado providing the assist.

The Bearcats scored twice in the
first half, but the Tigers got the

No high school officials charged in
Arizona football players abuse case
By Jacques Billeaud
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
PHOENIX — Three metro
Phoenix high school officials
accused of failing to notify author-
ities of sexual and physical abuse
of football players will not be
charged with crimes because play-
ers who were victimized and their
parents were among witnesses
who declined to cooperate with
investigators, a prosecutor said
Wednesday.
Three students were charged last
year with crimes stemming from
the abuse scandal at Hamilton
High school in the suburb of
Chandler. But Maricopa County
Attorney Bill Montgomery said he
can’t file additional charges
because many victims, witnesses
or their parents would not cooper-
ate.
“We needed cooperation from
parents, and that did not happen,”
Montgomery said, adding that
some parents refused to let author-
ities speak with their children.
Chandler police last year recom-
mended charges against Principal
Ken James, Athletic Director
Shawn Rustad and head football
Coach Steve Belles because they
knew about the abuse allegations
but failed to alert authorities.
But without the cooperation of
students who were witnesses,
prosecutors don’t have evidence to
prove the abuses occurred and that
school officials had a duty to
report such alleged abuse,
Montgomery said.
Montgomery, who held a com-
munity meeting last year to
encourage victims and witnesses
to come forward, said he was frus-
trated because he was convinced
the allegations were true.
Over the course of a year, at least

squad, investigators have said in
police reports. One player had his
pants and underwear forced down
and was spanked on his rear end,
authorities have said.
While some players described
the conduct as hazing, authorities
said some of the attacks were sexu-
al assaults and others were
attempted sexual assaults. Some
alleged assaults were recorded and
posted on social media.
Camille Casteel, superintendent
of the Chandler Unified School
District, prepared a letter
Wednesday informing parents of
steps taken to improve student
safety, such as requiring more staff
supervision to prevent improper
conduct by students and training
for school employees about
requirements to report abuses.
Officers who searched the
school last summer had said they
found documents and discovered
information about the misconduct
allegations that should have been
turned over to authorities. Among
the items seized from James’ office
was an email with a screen shot of
an exchange reportedly between
two players about how coaches
knew what was going on but did
nothing about it.
Authorities also have said
Rustad received an anonymous
voicemail saying younger foot-
ball players were being harassed.
A police report said the voicemail
has been deleted.
At the direction of James, Rustad
interviewed four players, includ-
ing one who says his clothes were
removed while he was held down,
according to the police reports.
THE DAILY JOURNAL
Investigators said Rustad relayed
the information to Belles and
instructed him to address this situ-
ation with the team.
Rustad did not notify the parents
of the four players who had been
interviewed, investigators have
said in police records.
The police records said Belles,
who led the team to five state
championships after becoming
head coach in 2006, denied having
been contacted by administrators
about a phone call or hazing.
Belles also told investigators
that he knew nothing about haz-
ing or assaults until he was told by
an unknown source that a mother
had contacted a police officer who
monitored the school.
James, Rustad and Belles were
reassigned to other jobs within
the school district after the scan-
dal became public.
Jack Wilenchik, an attorney rep-
resenting Belles, said the “the
prosecutor’s office is making the
right decision” by not pursuing
criminal charges and that Belles
plans to seek a coaching job in
another school district.
Rustad and James did not imme-
diately respond to emails seeking
comment.
Prosecutors have said criminal
cases against two of the three stu-
dents charged have already been
resolved in juvenile court, but
declined to provide details.
Another student, whose name

ing because he is a juvenile, still

U.S. pairs skaters performs with heavy hearts

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
GANGNEUNG, South Korea — Before head-
ing out to skate on the Olympic ice Thursday,
the Knierims saw the news of the deadly
Florida high school shootings. The only U.S.
pairs skaters at the games were hurting.
“I’m emotionally drained,” Alexa Scimeca-
Knierim said as she broke down in tears fol-
lowing one of the most difficult performances
of their careers. “I kind of put pressure on
myself and wanted to honor those who were
lost today.
“We are so privileged and lucky to be doing
what we are doing, and it’s so sad that 17 peo-
ple died in the United States. I told Chris today
he’d need to be so much stronger than me.
“I am disappointed with the way we per-
formed today, but so many people at home are
hurting because their children have died.”
She stopped to gather herself as her husband
patted her on the head.
“I was not focused on it while we were skat-
ing, but now that we are done, after we’ve
skated, there’s an emotional hurt,” she said. “I
am overwhelmed.”
Scimeca-Knierim said she was bothered the
previous night by intestinal problems,
though nothing related to major abdominal
surgeries she underwent in recent years that
nearly curtailed their career. Their struggles on
the ice Thursday, when they finished 15th out
of 16 pairs, mainly stemmed from Chris
falling twice on jumps, and some uncoordinat-
ed spins.
“We did hit the quad twist,” he noted of the
move in which he tosses his wife above his
head and she twists four times before he catch-
es her. They are the first U.S. couple to do the
maneuver in an Olympics, though the quad
twist is becoming more common throughout
the world. “That was the highlight of the pro-
gram, unfortunately.”
The Knierims own a bronze medal for the
team event, of course. They skated four stress-
ful programs in a span of a week, and with
practice sessions and early morning wake-up
calls, it’s been a wearing time.
Both recognized they weren’t close to their
best in the free skate.
“My first thought,” she said about their per-
formance, “was I hope teams that are not here
— we all want to be here — aren’t saying they
could’ve done better. We hate to skate poorly
enough for a team not here to feel they
could’ve done better than us.”

“Best dentist I have ever been to! Caring and knows

what he is doing. Like everything about him.”

from daylight and space to get a shot off, but
was taken down.
The referee held his whistle to see how the
play would develop and it certainly benefited
the Bears. As the ball rolled free, M-A’s Tobias
Jacobson ran on and blasted it past the goal-
keeper for a 1-0 lead just three minutes in.
“Our last few games, we wanted to come out
strong and set the tone for the game,” Jandeleit
said.
Like a flash knockdown in boxing,
Burlingame was wobbled. M-A had a couple
more dangerous crosses over the next few min-
utes, but came up empty. The Panthers eventual-
ly shook out the cobwebs and slowly started to
take control of the game with a tight passing
game.
While the Panthers were taking over the mid-
sive line and put any dangerous chances on
frame.
“We played great team defense,” said M-A
head coach Leo Krupnik. “This is something
we’ve worked on all season. Less and less goals
are being scored against us.”
As the game seemed to be turning in
Burlingame’s favor, M-A put the Panthers in
serious trouble as Jandeleit scored in the 22nd
minute with what could be put up as goal of year.
He checked into the middle of the field and
received a pass from Axel Valle. Jandeleit then
turned and split a pair of defenders. He angled in
toward the top of the Burlingame penalty box,
keeping the defense at arms length. Taking one
last touch, he pushed the ball into space before
lacing a laser of a shot that found the upper right
corner of the net.
“I like to play with speed, not so much
strength,” Jandeleit said, adding he would rather
get past a defender than try to go through him.
“I had some space and I thought about where I
wanted to put the shot.”
and launching into a side flip.
“I do it after every goal I score,” Jandeleit
said. “Just call it the ‘German Flip.’”
That was the goal that seemed to take the wind
out of the Panthers’ sails.
“For sure,” Dimech said. “We were moving
the ball around and creating a few chances.”
In the second half, Burlingame controlled a
bulk of the possession as M-A took a more
defensive posture. Again, the Panthers did a
good job knocking the ball around in the mid-
field and building their attack until they got to
the Bears’ final line of defense, which consis-
tently kept the ball out of danger.
Burlingame’s best chance at a goal came in
the 69th minute when the Panthers received a
free kick 24 yards out. Kai Galia bent a shot
around the Bears’ defensive wall, but goalkeep-
er Charlie “Mike” McKay made a diving save to
his left to push the ball out of bounds to main-
tain the shutout.
The Bears iced the game minutes later. McKay
triggered the play with a long punt into the
the ball on his foot and putting it away for his
second goal of the game in the 82nd minute to
keep the Bears’ title hopes alive.
“Toby hasn’t been playing a lot, so it was
nice to see him score those goals,” Krupnik
said. “I think we showed we’re the best team in
the league. We fell asleep two games (the Bears’
only league losses of the season).”
Burlingame will still have final say over who
is the best in the Bay is for 2018. Because the
Panthers have played so well all season long,
they need only a tie against a 4-7-2 South City
squad Friday to clinch the division title. M-A,
meanwhile, faces another must-win game when
it takes on rival Woodside (2-5-6) and then hope
the Warriors can somehow knock off the
Panthers.
“M-A’s a good side. They played well,”
Dimech said. “But we’ve worked all season to
put us in a good spot. We can mess up, but we’re
still there (fighting for the league crown).”

Ex-pitcher Esteban Loaiza to
face charges of dealing cocaine
SAN DIEGO — Former All-Star pitcher Esteban Loaiza,
who earned more than $43 million over 14 seasons, is
accused of drug dealing involving 44 pounds (20 kilograms)
of suspected cocaine.
The 46-year-old former Major League Baseball player is
scheduled to be arraigned in court in Chula Vista, California,
on Wednesday.
Loaiza was arrested Friday on suspicion of drug smuggling
after San Diego County sheriff’s officers who pulled him
over for a traffic violation found a “sophisticated” compart-
ment used to hide contraband in his vehicle, according to
investigators. Later they obtained a search warrant for the
home he rented in the beach community of Imperial Beach,
where officials say packages were found containing a white
powder believed to be cocaine.

Nova was clearly No. 3 in the North.
There were still two things to hash out. One, which North
team, Jefferson or Half Moon Bay, would get the top seed? Two,
which would be the fourth boys’ team from the North?
After going through the normal tie-breaking processes, the
coin was pulled out and the Grizzlies won the No. 1 spot, win-
ning the flip over Half Moon Bay.
As to the issue of the final team into the tournament, El
Camino, South City and Westmoor all finished with 4-8 league
records. The decision was eventually settled not with a coin but
with an “X.”
“We used a blind draw,” Stogner said. “We drew an ‘X’ on a
piece of paper and put it in one of three envelopes. The ‘X’ is
the winner.”
The ‘X’ factor? El Camino boys.
So, here are the matchup for Thursday’s first round of the PAL
Tournament: No. 4S Aragon at No. 1N Jefferson, No. 3N Terra
Nova at No. 2N Mills and No. 4N El Camino at No. 1S Sequoia
at 7 p.m.
No. 3S Menlo-Atherton will be at No. 2N Half Moon Bay at
7:30 p.m. since the HMB girls’ will also be hosting a first-
round game.
The girls’ bracket was much more straightforward: No. 3S
Sequoia at No. 2N Half Moon Bay at 6:30 p.m.; No. 4S
Carlmont at No. 1N South City, No. 3N Terra Nova at No. 2S
Aragon and No. 4N El Camino at No. 1S Menlo-Atherton at 7
p.m.
Friday’s semifinals and Saturday’s championship games will
be played at the CUSD Event Center in Half Moon Bay. Friday’s
games begin at 3 p.m., while the championship games are at 6
p.m. and 7:45 p.m.
***
The PAL is one of the few leagues remaining in the Central
Coast Section that still holds a post-season league tournament
ahead of CCS play.
The West Catholic Athletic League did away with its tourna-
ment a year ago because the coaches decided they didn’t need to
bash each other a third time before the start of the road to a state
title.
“The coaches (in the PAL) still vote for it. It’s important to
them,” PAL commissioner Terry Stogner said.
It’s important because it really does put to rest the question as
to which is the best public school team in San Mateo County.
Because there are no cross-over divisional games during league
play, there is a question as to which team is best because they
don’t all play each other during the season.
“We’re in a unique situation where we’re (essentially) two dif-
ferent leagues,” Stogner said of the PAL basketball alignment of
North and South. The only time teams from the divisions face
each other are in the non-league portion of the schedule — or in
the PAL Tournament.
***
I’ve talked about the lives of athletic directors, but if you
want to have an interesting “day in the life” conversation, you
could not do much better than talking with PAL commissioner
Stogner.
The former longtime Carlmont boys’ basketball coach and
AD, Stogner took over district duties after retiring from
Carlmont.
It might have been easier staying in school.
Stogner’s latest adventures surround spring sports and trans-
portation issues. Apparently, there weren’t enough buses avail-
able to take players and teams to and from events, so Stogner
sat down with the five district superintendents and hammered
out a busing plan, which included moving league track and
swim meets to different days. For years, both those sports have
been contested on Thursdays, but with the bus crisis, track and
field was moved to Wednesday and swim meets were moved to
Friday.
Now, Stogner has been fielding call after call from schools
and coaches saying they want to reschedule their meets — back
to Thursdays.

Durant’s 50 not enough for
Warriors in loss to Blazers
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
PORTLAND, Ore. — Damian Lillard had 44
points and eight assists, and the Portland Trail
Blazers overcame Kevin Durant’s 50 points to
snap a seven-game losing streak to the
Golden State Warriors with a 123-117 victory
on Wednesday night.
CJ McCollum added 29 points for the
Blazers, who go into the All-Star break six
games over .500 (32-26).
Durant added seven rebounds and six assists,
but Golden State had its three-game winning
streak snapped. It was Durant’s fifth career 50-
point game and first this season.
The Blazers led by as many as 20 points in
the first half but the Warriors got within a
point in the third quarter. Klay Thompson’s 3-
pointer narrowed it to 99-96 before Stephen
Curry’s 3 tied it at 99 with 7:10 left.
The Warriors couldn’t get ahead and Lillard’s
3-pointer put Portland ahead 109-101 with
5:05 to play.
Durant’s 3-pointer closed Golden State
within 114-111 but McCollum got a 3 for the
Blazers on the other end with 2:15 left.
Durant’s reverse layup and a pair of free throws
cut the margin to 117-115 before Evan
Turner’s free throws padded the lead for
Portland.
The teams traded free throws before Durant
nailed a 3-pointer — but the officials said he
stepped out of bounds. After review the call
was confirmed and the Warriors (44-14) could-
n’t catch up.
Portland had lost four of its last six, includ-
ing a 115-96 loss to the surging Utah Jazz on
Sunday night.
Blazers center Jusuf Nurkic left the game
against the Jazz and was listed as questionable
against the Warriors with low back soreness, a
right calf strain, and right oblique pain. But he
started and finished with 17 points and 13
rebounds.
Golden State’s Draymond Green was also
questionable with a sprained left index finger,
but he started, too.
Portland jumped out to a 19-8 lead after
Lillard hit a pair of 3-pointers and McCollum
added another one. Lillard’s layup extended the
Blazers’ lead to 38-18.
Lillard finished the first quarter with 18
points. Portland led 63-51 at the half.
Durant made a 3-pointer and a free throw to
narrow the score to 74-73 in the third quarter,
his second four-point play of the game. It was
as close as the Warriors could get in the quarter
and Portland led 92-87 going into the final

Aphrodisiac plants as close as the nearest supermarket
By Lee Reich
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Money can’t buy you love, but it can buy

you plants. And maybe plants can win over
your Valentine.
For millennia, various plants have been
billed as aphrodisiacs. These aren’t neces-
sarily obscure species lurking deep in trop-
ical jungles and known only to shamans.
Wander over to the produce counter of any
modern supermarket and reach for, say, a
pomegranate, and you are cradling in your
hand a fruit revered thousands of years ago
by the Egyptians for its association with
love and eroticism.
A number of spices, from lovage to nut-
meg to vanilla, have been credited with the
potential to induce love. A dish of rich
vanilla ice cream could surely sway me in
certain directions. Perhaps the effect of
spices on sexuality was indirect; according
to a 16th century source, anise seeds, what-
ever their aphrodisiacal qualities, also
“make the breath modest and pleasant to the
taste ... and dispels flatulence in the belly.”
Love, for all its attractions, has also been
associated with a degree of danger, emotion-
ally or otherwise. And certain aphrodisiac

Apps and other services help
city dwellers stash their cars By Katherine Roth
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Many, if not most, urban homes do not
include parking. So for those with wheels,
finding an affordable home — for the car,
that is — can present special challenges.
In many urban apartment buildings,
spaces in the garage are sold or rented sepa-
rately from the apartment itself. Rents for a
parking space in expensive cities like New
York can cost hundreds of dollars a month,
and parking spaces sometimes sell for over
$200,000.
A slew of apps and other online services
have appeared to help city dwellers across
the country find parking.
“The most in-demand locations for resi-

New York, Washington, D.C., Chicago and
Los Angeles,” says Michael Rosenbaum,
CEO and founder of spacer.com and park-
hound.com.au, sites that match up those
with parking to spare and those in need of a
spot.
“Renting a car space from a friendly
neighbor in your community makes sense,
as it is tapping into under-utilized assets
that are sitting idle all around us,” he says.
SpotHero.com lists parking spaces —
mainly excess vacancies in hotel garages —
in the United States and Canada. Listings
also include offerings of space in home
garages or driveways.
Park Whiz is another source for short- or
long-term parking spaces. It’s designed to
work with Amazon Alexa, so spaces can be
reserved via voice commands.
Parkingcupid.com, yet another service link-
ing those with parking spaces to those in
need of them, also features a sample rental
lease to give some legal protection to both
parties.

parking space up for rent, you should check
building rules. Many condo and apartment
buildings don’t allow residents to rent out
parking spots to people who don’t live in
the building, especially when entry to the
parking garage is secured and leads directly
inside the building.
Detached garages tend to have fewer regu-
lations about parking space rentals.
And for those in search of a secure and
reliable parking space, going through an
established service is often a safer bet than
going it alone.
“We always recommend that people go
through a reputable marketplace so that
their money is transacted in a secure envi-
ronment and they have access to dispute res-
olution in case something doesn’t go quite
right,” Rosenbaum says.
For those looking to buy a space as
opposed to renting, the price tags in covet-
ed areas are not for the faint of heart. But the
amenities and long-term value are hard to
ignore.
At The Parking Club Condo, a stand-alone
parking building in Brooklyn, spots
include a valet service (through DropCar)
that helps deliver your car to or from air-
ports, Manhattan and much of Brooklyn and
Queens, along with other luxuries. Car own-
ers hardly have to go to the garage them-
selves.
Simon Anderson, an associate broker with
Douglas Elliman Real Estate who is respon-
sible for marketing and sales at The Parking
Club Condo, says that although most sales
are in cash, the condo works with a bank
that provides loans for up to 65 percent of
the cost.
“You own the parking condo just like you
would a home, with discretion to buy and
sell. And we’ve found that if you include a
parking space like this in the purchase of a
home, it significantly enhances the sale
value,” says Anderson.

The suspect was taken into custody
without a fight about an hour later in a
residential neighborhood about a mile
away. He had multiple magazines of
ammunition, authorities said.
“It’s catastrophic. There really are
no words,” Broward County Sheriff
Scott Israel told reporters.
The attacker used the fire alarm “so
the kids would come pouring out of the
classrooms into the hall,” Sen. Bill
Nelson told CNN.
“And there the carnage began,” said
Nelson, who said he was briefed by the
FBI.
The Florida Democrat said he did not
know if the gunman used the smoke
grenades, but he assumed that’s why he
had a gas mask on.
Most of the fatalities were inside the
building, though some victims were
found fatally shot outside, the sheriff
said.
Victoria Olvera, a junior at the
school, said Cruz was expelled last
school year because he got into a fight
with his ex-girlfriend’s new boyfriend.
She said he had been abusive to his
girlfriend.
“I think everyone had in their minds
if anybody was going to do it, it was
going to be him,” she said.
Dakota Mentcher, another junior,
said he used to be friends with Cruz.
But he cut off the friendship as Cruz’s
behavior “started progressively get-
ting a little more weird.” Cruz posted
on Instagram about killing animals
and threatened one of Mentcher’s
friends, he said.
He remembered that Cruz had a pellet
gun and did target practice in his back-
yard.
Student Daniel Huerfano said he rec-
ognized Cruz from an Instagram photo

led Millbrae through since her hire in
2008.
“She’s done some amazing and very

said Papan.
Helping the city improve its finan-

early in her tenure, facilitating the
landing of Living Spaces to fill the
former Kohl’s building, working as a

among Raines’ most notable
achievements, said Papan.
“It’s been a bumpy road,
but she’s got us through it,”
said Papan.
Prior to her hire in
Millbrae, Raines worked as
the city manager in Half
Moon Bay, starting in
2002. Earlier, she worked
for six years as the director
of the San Mateo County

the county cut during plans

Case Number: 18PRO00102
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, con-
tingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or es-
tate, or both, of Olive Bernice Pietrasz
aka O Bernice Pietrasz aka Bernice Pie-
trasz. A Petition for Probate has been

or Court of California, County of San Ma-
teo. The Petition for Probate requests

bate. The will and any codicils are avail-
able for examination in the file kept by
the court.
The petition requests authority to admin-
ister the estate under the Independent

thority will allow the personal representa-
tive to take many actions without obtain-
ing court approval. Before taking certain
very important actions, however, the per-
sonal representative will be required to
give notice to interested persons unless
they have waived notice or consented to
the proposed action.) The independent
administration authority will be granted
unless an interested person files an ob-
jection to the petition and shows good
cause why the court should not grant au-
thority.
A hearing on the petition will be held in
this court as follows: MAR. 23, 2018 at
9:00 a.m., Superior Court of California,
County of San Mateo, 400 County Cen-
ter, Redwood City, CA 94063.
If you object to the granting of the peti-
tion, you should appear at the hearing
and state your objections or file written
objections with the court before the hear-
ing. Your appearance may be in person
or by your attorney.
If you are a creditor or a contingent cred-
itor of the decedent, you must file your
claim with the court and mail a copy to
the personal representative appointed by
the court within the later of either (1) four
months from the date of first issuance of
letters to a general personal representa-
tive, as defined in section 58(b) of the
California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days
from the date of mailing or personal de-
livery to you of a notice under sectioin
9052 of the California Probate Code.Oth-
er California statutes and legal authority
may affect your rights as a creditor. You
may want to consult with an attorney
knowledgable in California law.
You may examine the file kept by the
court. If you are a person interested in
the estate, you may file with the court a
Request for Special Notice (form DE-
154) of the filing of an inventory and ap-
praisal of estate assets or of any petition
or account as provided in Probate Code
section 1250. A Request for Special No-
tice form is available from the court clerk.

to nearby customers more than two weeks
ago.
For udelv CEO Daniel Laury, the opportu-
nity to test the autonomous delivery vehi-
cle his team has been hard at work on for
the last two years was as exciting as it was
gratifying after the orange vehicle ably
navigated traffic lights and lane changes
on its 2.5-mile loop through the city Jan.
30. And to join relief at a major milestone
for his project were other signs of success
— the smiles and stares from those who
witnessed its first public trip.
“It’s actually very cute,” he said. “We
want it to be very, very friendly.”
The rows of black, shiny compartments
lining the sides of the vehicle can be
unlocked by customers using an app,
which is also used by customers to sched-
ule delivery orders. But that’s just one of

land abutting the city’s train station. It
would amount to a reduction of roughly 500
parking spaces from what is there now.
Developers and housing advocates called
for the project initially conceived five years
ago to move ahead rapidly, while residents
urged careful consideration by councilmem-
bers.
Noting they do not oppose the proposal
outright, those critiquing the development
are concerned about its fiscal impact. To off-
set the threat of draining public resources,
residents outlined their set of project prior-
ities moving ahead.
Assuring there is an adequate amount of
retail space in the project to generate ongo-
ing sales tax revenue, calling for a premier

many pieces of technology behind the
vehicles, which Laury said include hard-
ware such as sensors, cameras, computing
equipment, a re-engineered steering wheel
system and software allowing operators to
take control of the vehicles remotely.
Though the startup’s ultimate goal is for
the vehicles to go driverless, Laury said
Peninsula residents can expect to see a
safety driver in them for the foreseeable
future to comply with the California
Department of Motor Vehicles’ regula-
tions. Laury said the safety of those
around the vehicles exceeds all other pri-
orities as the startup begins testing its
technology with grocery deliveries in San
Mateo.
“It doesn’t really matter if we break the
eggs or if we spill the wine,” he said. “We
will always, always program the computer
to protect the pedestrians.”
Though the company is starting with two
vehicles in its fleet, Laury said he’s hoping
it grows to five in the next two months or
so and eventually dozens in the months to
follow. He said the company is testing
region and seeking a sizable financial con-
tribution from the developer are among the
top issues raised by critics.
“We want a project that can generate more
income,” said resident Joe Chen, to a round
of applause by like-minded citizens who
waved signs calling for greater contribu-
tions from the builder.
Millbrae officials and Republic Urban
previously reached a development agree-
ment, detailing the variety of community
benefits offered by the builder in return for
project entitlements.
Councilmembers have yet to approve the
deal, which offers perks such as commercial
and residential density bonuses in return for
a $2 million builder donation toward con-
struction of the city’s new Community
Center as well as 80 units of affordable
housing reserved for military veterans.
Project detractors called for the affordable
units, which are planned in a building sepa-
rate from the other 320 market-rate units, to
be constructed in the first phase of the

through a partnership with Delivery Guys,
which coordinates deliveries for the San
Mateo grocer, and hopes to expand to other
stores the service works with in the future.
He added vehicles in the udelv fleet would
be one of several methods Delivery Guys
uses to ferry deliveries to those ordering
them.
After observing Laury and Akshat Patel,
udelv’s chief technology officer, load one
of the vehicle’s compartments with gro-
cery bags, San Mateo resident Lauren
Shein said she would definitely be interest-
ed in using the service. As someone who
doesn’t drive, she said she was encouraged
by the idea that the vehicles could save her
a trip to the store.
“I think it’s fabulous what’s going on,”
she said.
Acknowledging the deliveries sparked
development. They also took issue with the
city’s willingness to offer $2.8 million
toward building the units, claiming the
Republic Urban should solely bear that bur-
den.
The development team has said the city’s
payment is essential to setting into motion
a carefully crafted financing plan required to
build the affordable housing, and the isolat-
ed building makes room for construction of
additional units.
For their part, military veterans said they
are not worried about the design of the
affordable tower, so long as the project
moves ahead in short order.
Urging councilmembers to move more
swiftly was also common sentiment
expressed by housing advocates who
claimed those affected by the region’s hous-
ing crunch and affordability crisis cannot
continue to wait for transit-oriented devel-
opment.
“Please approve all components of this
project so we can start enjoying the bene-

some questions about whether developing
robot technology could take jobs away
from local workers, Mayor Rick Bonilla
said seeing the orange delivery vehicle in
action last month proved to be interesting,
bringing up other questions about the role
it could play in mitigating congestion on
San Mateo streets.
“We have to figure out where we’re going
to employ all our people,” he said. “On the
other hand, though, this particular new
innovative technology allows this vehicle
to eliminate a lot of trips from our streets.”
Though Laury and his team are focused on
perfecting their test runs, he said they’ve
already thought about how the robots could
go beyond saving their customers a trip to
the grocery store. Helping customers
return goods at stores or deliver forgotten
keys to a family member are just some of
the applications they have imagined for
the vehicles, but they are thinking of new
ideas every day, said Laury.
“We want the San Mateo residents to
think about this as progress and improv-
ing their lives,” he said.
fits,” said Millbrae resident Emily Coogan.
In all, roughly 40 speakers came to the
podium, during a public comment session
which lasted nearly three hours. By the time
the last speaker shared their thoughts, coun-
cilmembers agreed the meeting ran too late
for further deliberations and tabled the issue
until Tuesday, March 13.
In the interim, councilmembers will again
weigh the Serra Station project, another
transformative development proposed near-
by offering 444 residential units, more than
290,000 square feet of offices and approxi-
mately 13,200 square feet of retail spaces in
one nine-story and two 10-story towers at
property west of the train station.
Considering the variety of issues requir-
ing further assessment from councilmem-
bers, Mayor Gina Papan said she looks for-
ward to more substantial discussions with
the Republic Urban team next month.
“It appears we will have a lot more ques-
tions and the council hasn’t even started
yet,” she said.
