Financial planner who stole
from elderly takes plea deal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
A San Mateo man accused of taking more
than $625, 000 from eight San Mateo
County residents to whom he provided
financial and insurance advice is facing 10
years, four months in state prison Thursday
after he pleaded no contest to 10 felony
charges, according to the San Mateo County
District Attorney’s Office.
Clement Ng, 62, is believed to have met
residents in their homes as their financial
and insurance planner and taken their
money under the premise that he was invest-
ing it or purchasing insurance plans with it,
according to prosecutors previously.
Having pleaded no contest to multiple
elder abuse and residential burglary charges
Thursday, Ng faces a lengthy prison term
when he returns for receipt of a probation
report and sentencing March 26, according
to prosecutors.
Ng is said to have stolen some $218,000
from a Burlingame couple in their 60s by
telling them he could take a portion of their
retirement fund and invest it in a
Northwestern Mutual account in 2006. He
allegedly met regularly with the couple to
discuss their investment strategy and, in
2015, told them the fund had reached opti-
mal growth and that he would invest it in
another account, according to prosecutors.
The couple is said to have received a letter
from the IRS in 2017 requesting more infor-

Having told the couple

ing some $266, 000 with Ng when he
stopped returning her calls, and another eld-
erly couple gave Ng nearly $2,100 to pur-
chase an insurance policy they never
received, according to prosecutors.
Ng’s defense attorney John Runfola said
his client was forced to accept the deal since
prosecutors had the evidence to prove the
case beyond a reasonable doubt.
“It’s an unduly harsh sentence for him,”
said Runfola. “[He] led a law-abiding life for
56 years, but succumbed to an addiction to
gambling.”
Chief Deputy District Attorney Al Serrato
said prosecutors were pleased to see a reso-
lution to the case and a sentence reflecting
the seriousness of Ng’s conduct.

nerable elderly victims and take what may
amount to their life savings,” he said.

County workers plan
two-day strike over wages, health care
More than 1,700 public service workers have called for a
two-day strike in February after reaching an impasse with
San Mateo County management, according to the American
Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees
(AFSCME) Local 829.
The strike is set to take place Wednesday, Feb. 13, and
Thursday, Feb. 14. The union’s members voted 97 percent
in favor of taking the strike action after meeting with coun-
ty management 25 times over seven months. According to
the union, the county has yet to offer a fair deal on wages
and health benefits and the workers have been left without a
new contract.

Speaking outside of John’s Grill Thursday, Mahoney’s
friend Paula Lykins described Mahoney as a “very outgoing,
productive, hardworking” person but, “in the last few
months, she’s had some pretty significant health problems
which have sort of led to some mental health issues.”
John’s Grill is offering a $5,000 reward for information
leading to the safe return of Mahoney, restaurant manager
Johnni Konstin said. “Everyone at John’s Grill is onboard
with this and we really, really hope that she’s OK,” he said.
In addition to the reward announced Thursday, some of
Mahoney’s friends started a GoFundMe account Tuesday to
also raise funds for a reward for information about her
whereabouts. The page can be found at gofundme.com/oper-

Police described Mahoney as being 5 feet 2 inches tall,
weighing about 110 pounds, with light brown hair and
brown eyes. She was last seen wearing a dark coat with a fur
hood, long pants and brown boots. Mahoney is originally
from England and has a slight English accent.

Storms bring California’s
Sierra snowpack to normal
By Rich Pedroncelli
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
PHILLIPS STATION — January
storms raised the vital Sierra Nevada
snowpack to normal for this time of
year, an important development for
California’s water supply, state offi-
cials said Thursday after the second
survey of the winter.
The snowpack was 100 percent of
average to date, the California
Department of Water Resources said.
“This is a significant increase since
the last survey,” said John King, a
water resources engineer who con-
ducted a manual survey of a snow
course at Phillips Station, one of hun-
dreds of locations measured.
At the site, the snow depth meas-
ured 50 inches (127 centimeters) with
a snow-water equivalent of 18 inches
(46 centimeters). That’s 98 percent of
average to date at the location, the
agency said.
On Feb. 1, 2018, Phillips Station
had a snow-water equivalent only 14
percent of average.
When the Sierra Nevada snowpack
melts in spring and summer it pro-
vides about 30 percent of California’s
water needs. Persistent drought has
also dried out trees and brush, con-
tributing to severe wildfires.
“It’s a start, but the next two or
three months will determine what it
means for our reservoirs and overall
water supply,” DWR Director Karla

Newsom pushes for fund to help asylum seekers
SAN DIEGO — California Gov. Gavin Newsom is prais-
ing San Diego County for providing a shelter for asylum
seekers and wants the state to help.
Newsom pushed for the state to create
a $25 million emergency fund during a
visit to San Diego on Thursday.
He says the money is needed to
address a humanitarian crisis created by
the federal government and that $5 mil-
lion should be made available this year -
mostly to help San Diego’s shelter.
Gavin Newsom Newsom said lawmakers will discuss
the matter Monday.
In October, U.S. immigration officials started releasing
asylum seekers onto the streets.
San Diego County officials agreed to allow an unused
courthouse to be used as a shelter for asylum seekers to
stay until they can get to family or sponsors.
Sheriff’s Office names two
more dead in California wildfire
PARADISE — A Northern California Sheriff’s Office has
released the names of two more people who died in a dev-
astating wildfire that killed at least 86 people.
The Butte County Sheriff’s office identified on Thursday
the deceased as 74-year-old Robert Quinn of Paradise and
93-year-old Berniece Schmidt of Magalia.
The office has publicly identified 69 of people who per-
ished in a Nov. 8 wildfire that was the country’s deadliest
in a century.
The wildfire wiped out more than 14,000 homes, most of
them in the tiny town of Paradise. The smaller communi-
ties of Concow and Magalia were also hard hit.
The cause of the fire is not known, although some peo-
ple who lost homes and relatives are suing Pacific Gas &
Electric. The utility filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy pro-
tection this week.

Trump, Pelosi stances on wall suggest deal will be difficult
By Alan Fram and Andrew Taylor
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — House Speaker Nancy
Pelosi declared Thursday that there’ll be no
“wall money” in any compromise border
security deal as she and President Donald
Trump signaled that congressional negotia-
tors may never satisfy his demands for his
cherished Southwest border proposal.
Trump, who in recent weeks has expressed
indifference to whether the term “wall” or
something else is used, clung with renewed
tenacity to the word that became his cam-
paign mantra, declaring, “A wall is a wall.”
Yet in a series of tweets and statements, he
issued conflicting messages about what
he’d need to declare victory and suggested
that merely repairing existing structures
along the boundary could be a major com-
ponent of a triumph.
Amid signs that Trump’s leverage in
Congress is atrophying, he seemed to aim
one tweet at his conservative followers. He
wrote that Democrats “are not going to give
money to build the DESPERATELY needed
WALL. I’ve got you covered. Wall is already
being built, I don’t expect much help!”

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES — Big corporations forced
into bankruptcy by liability lawsuits often
take the offending product off the market and
try to move on. That’s what happened with
the Dalkon Shield birth control device,
asbestos and silicone breast implants.
But when the nation’s biggest utility,
Pacific Gas & Electric, comes out of bank-
ruptcy, it will face the same danger that put it
in financial peril in the first place: wildfires.

courts, the industry and the public will be

takes to control its legal exposure to future
blazes in an era in which climate change is
likely to make such disasters more com-
mon.
Will PG&E invest more in preventive
maintenance to keep power lines from start-
ing fires, adopting more aggressive tree-
trimming and brush-clearing practices? Will
it fortify its equipment better? Will it shut
off the power in certain areas when the fire
risk is high?

to say, ‘We’re going to deal with hazards we
caused in the past through bankruptcy,’

She added: “Is there a place for enhanced

Yet Pelosi’s other remark — “There’s not
going to be any wall money in the legisla-
tion” — underscored the linguistic battle
PG&E somehow has to find a solution to the
fact that California is going to have drought
conditions for a very long time,” said Jared

California Hastings School of Law in San
Francisco. “How do you solve the liability
crisis that they face?”

into bankruptcy by potentially massive

no reason to let Trump claim a win in a cause
that stirs his hard-right voters and enrages
liberals.
Trump’s political muscle weakened fol-
lowing Democrats’ capture of House control
in the November election. It waned further
after his surrender last week in ending a
record 35-day partial government shutdown
without getting a penny of the $5.7 billion
he’d demanded to start building the wall.
In another sign of his flagging hold over
lawmakers, the GOP-controlled Senate
backed legislation on a 68-23 vote
Thursday that opposes withdrawal of U.S.
troops from Syria and Afghanistan.
When Trump folded on the shutdown, he
agreed to reopen government until Feb. 15,
giving lawmakers more time to craft a
bipartisan border security compromise.
If there’s no deal by then, Trump has
threatened to revive the shutdown or declare
a national emergency, which he claims
would let him shift billions from unrelated
military construction projects to erecting
his wall. He criticized Democrats’ negotiat-
ing stance so far, telling reporters in the
Oval Office that Pelosi is “just playing
games” and saying GOP bargainers are

victims and expected hundreds more,
Stephen Karotkin, an attorney for PG&E,
said at a court hearing Thursday.
One was the nation’s deadliest, most
destructive wildfire in a century: the blaze in
November that leveled the Northern
California town of Paradise, killed at least
86 people and destroyed nearly 15,000
homes. The cause is still under investiga-
tion, though PG&E had reported problems
with equipment near where the fire started.

Long johns to short sleeves: Rapid thaw follows polar blast

By Tammy Webber and Jeff Karoub
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CHICAGO — In Illinois, temperatures
could rise by 80 degrees within days. In
Michigan, melting snow and rain and a 17-
mile ice jam could lead to flooding. Across
the Midwest, the sudden warmth was sure to
bring more broken roads and busted water
mains.
The polar vortex that brought many cities
to a standstill was expected to end with a
rapid thaw that experts say could be
unprecedented. But the sudden swing from
long johns to light jackets and short
sleeves could create problems of its own.
“I don’t think there’s ever been a case
where we’ve seen (such a big) shift in tem-
peratures,” in the winter, said Jeff Masters,
meteorology director of the Weather
Underground firm. “Past record-cold waves
have not dissipated this quickly. ... Here we
are going right into spring-like tempera-
tures.”
On Thursday, the system marched east,
spreading arctic conditions over an area
from Buffalo to Brooklyn. In western New
York, a storm that dumped up to 20 inches
of snow (51 centimeters) gave way to sub-
zero temperatures and face-stinging wind
chills. In New York City, about 200 fire-
fighters battling a blaze in a commercial
building took turns getting warm on buses.
A worker from AAA aids vehicle trapped in snow during the polar vortex in Buffalo, N.Y.
The number of deaths that could be blamed
on the cold climbed to at least 15.
For the nation’s midsection, relief was as
close as the weekend.
Rockford, Illinois, was at a record-break-
ing minus 31 on Thursday morning but
should be around 50 on Monday. Other pre-
viously frozen areas could see temperatures

of 55 or higher.
The dramatic warm-up will offer a respite
from the bone-chilling cold that canceled
school, closed businesses and halted trains.
But potholes will appear on roads and
bridges weakened by the freeze-thaw cycle.
The same cycle can crack water mains and
homeowners’ pipes. Scores of vehicles will
be left with flat tires and bent rims.
Joe Buck, who manages Schmit Towing
in Minneapolis and spent about 20 hours a
day outdoors this week responding to
stranded vehicle calls, said he’s already tak-
ing calls for Monday to deal with a backlog
of hundreds of stalled vehicles.
“Sunday is going to be 39 degrees ABOVE
zero,” said Buck, who has had 18 trucks run-
ning around the clock in wind chills that
dropped to minus 50.
In Detroit, where some water mains are
almost 150 years old, city workers were
dealing with dozens of breaks, said Palencia
Mobley, deputy director of the Detroit Water
and Sewerage Department.
“We’ll have all hands on deck. Hopefully,
we’ll be able to address as many of the
issues as possible over the next week,”
Mobley said.
The thawing of pipes can sometimes
inflict greater damage than the initial
freeze. Bursts can occur when ice inside
starts to melt and water rushes through the
pipe, or when water in the pipe is pushed to
a closed faucet by expanding ice.
Elsewhere, a bridge in the western
Michigan community of Newaygo, 40
miles north of Grand Rapids was closed as
the ice-jammed Muskegon River rose above
flood stage. Officials in Buffalo, New York,
watched for flooding on the Upper Niagara
River because of ice.

US expected to announce treaty withdrawal as soon as Friday

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — The Trump administra-
tion is poised to announce Friday that it is
withdrawing from a treaty that has been a
centerpiece of superpower arms control
since the Cold War and whose demise some
analysts worry could fuel a new arms race.
An American withdrawal, which has been
expected for months, would follow years of
unresolved dispute over Russian compli-
ance with the pact, known as the
Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces, or INF,
treaty. It was the first arms control measure
to ban an entire class of weapons: ground-
launched cruise missiles with a range
between 310 miles and 3,100 miles. Russia
denies that it has been in violation.
U.S. officials also have expressed worry
that China, which is not party to the 1987
treaty, is gaining a significant military
advantage in Asia by deploying large num-
bers of missiles with ranges beyond the
treaty’s limit. Leaving the INF treaty would
allow the Trump administration to counter
the Chinese, but it’s unclear how it would do
that.
Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said in
early December that Washington would give
Moscow 60 days to return to compliance
before it gave formal notice of withdrawal,
with actual withdrawal taking place six
months later. The 60-day deadline expires
on Saturday, and the administration is
expected to say as early as Friday that
efforts to work out a compliance deal have
failed and that it would suspend its compli-
ance with the treaty’s terms.
The State Department said Pompeo would
make a public statement on Friday morn-
ing, but it did not mention the topic.
In a tweet Thursday, the chief spokes-
woman for NATO, Oana Lungescu, said there
are no signs of getting a compliance deal
with Russia.

Secret investigation
weakening trust in state auditor
The Sacramento Bee
W
hat in tarnation is going
on at the California State
Auditor’s office?
State Auditor Elaine Howle —
responsible for rooting out waste,
fraud and abuse in state government
— refuses to confirm the existence of
a report on her investigation into
nepotism allegations at the
Department of Industrial Relations.
As the Bee’s Adam Ashton reports,
the investigation was brought to
light by Socorro Tongco, who says
DIR fired her in retaliation for cooper-
ating with the auditor’s inquiry.
It’s hard to evaluate the claims
because Howle’s office won’t
acknowledge the investigation’s exis-
tence. But we know it exists because
documents from other state agencies
refer to it. In fact, the auditor’s own
website had announced plans to
release details of the investigation.
That is, before the auditor’s office
started denying its existence.
Confused yet?
The auditor’s secret investigation
concerned allegations that DIR’s for-
mer director, Christine Baker, showed
favoritism toward her brother and
daughter, who both worked in the
department. In 2018, Baker
“announced her retirement just after
the auditor’s office briefly on its web-
site announced a plan to release a
report on her department. A spokes-
woman for the auditor’s office told the
San Francisco Chronicle at the time
that it had an ‘error’ on its website
that week.”
“I can neither confirm nor deny
whether this office is conducting, has
conducted or has completed the inves-
tigation described in your inquiry,”
the auditor’s spokeswoman told The
Bee, sounding more like a CIA opera-

Wursthall’s has set a policy that no
one would be allowed to eat in their
restaurant wearing a MAGA hat. After
hearing all the arguments for and
against this rule, it has become
apparent that anyone wearing a
MAGA hat is trying really hard to
make a point and the owners of this
restaurant have every right to dis-
agree with that point. Eating out is
supposed to be a pleasant experience

tive than a representative of an office
purporting to “improve California
government by assuring the perform-
ance, accountability, and transparen-
cy that its citizens deserve.”
Tongco, a former fraud investigator
at DIR, can confirm the report’s exis-
tence. She says it’s why DIR fired her.
According to The Bee: “Tongco con-
tends that department leaders targeted
her because they knew she met with
and cooperated with Howle’s team.
Tongco’s lawsuit said she communi-
cated with one of Howle’s auditors by
email and text messages in 2015 and
in 2016. Tongco in her lawsuit says
auditors asked her questions about
Baker’s daughter, who also worked for
the Department of Industrial
Relations at the time.”
Tongco says she “responded hon-
estly.”
But while the auditor conducted the
nepotism investigation, Baker appar-
ently conducted an investigation of
her own — into the contents of DIR
employee emails. Her probe allegedly
turned up emails that DIR later used to
terminate Tongco’s employment.
DIR claimed the emails showed that
“Tongco discussed what should have
been confidential information with
her colleagues” and that she allegedly
“had a romantic relationship with a
colleague that she hid from supervi-
sors, conducted personal business on
state time and misled her boss about
her requests to work from home on a
couple of occasions.”
This story has more twists than a
John Le Carré thriller.

• Gov. Gavin Newsom should seize

• Maybe five terms in the auditor’s
office is enough for Howle, who was
first appointed during the Davis
administration. In 2017, an anony-

issues in Howle’s office delayed her
reappointment. The legislature’s
(non-secret) investigation found
some merit to claims of “declining
morale, increased turnover and weak
whistleblower protections that may
deter some employees from voicing
their concerns” in her office. In addi-
tion, the auditor had allowed senior
members of her staff to accumulate
excessive unused leave totals. All in
all, it was — according to critics
interviewed by The Bee — “the kind
of misconduct that she regularly high-
lights in other state departments.”

Cleaning up in
North Central
B
ertha Sanchez would be proud. The Home
Association of North Central San Mateo just held
another neighborhood cleanup event — this time it
was concentrated on the Delaware Street/First Avenue area
and included the planting of a community garden.
That garden is in a notorious spot for dumping on the
eastern side of the road by the San Mateo Creek. The idea of
planting a garden is that people might think twice about
dropping litter on flowers. Another effort was getting two
garbage cans installed on First Avenue since many traveling
from downtown usually have food or drink items in their
hand they no longer want and previously had no place to put
them. The cans will surely help.
The cleanup effort is the second in the course of a year and
another one is planned in the coming months. The idea,
according to Amourence Lee, past president of HANCSM, is
to galvanize the neighborhood against trash. Not only will
it get the neighborhood cleaner, but it will allow neighbors
to get to know each other. And
the more they know each other,
the stronger the community
will be.
That’s the thinking at least.
While HANCSM has been
around for decades, it was large-
ly carried by Bertha Sanchez for
a number of years. Sanchez was
a dynamo and was the epitome
of leading by example. After
her death in 2016, new leader-
ship emerged and the associa-
tion is back thriving. Sanchez
would be most pleased to see
the effort, especially the clean
streets.
***
Speaking of Sanchez, word is that the new garden in front
of the Cal Water site on Delaware Street has been named after
her. There is a plaque with a dedication to Sanchez at the
spot, but there might be a larger announcement during the
April cleanup. In the meantime, be sure to check out the gar-
den and the interesting art piece of a water drop coming out
of a tap. You can also get a look-see of the whole facility
yourself during an open house and ribbon-cutting ceremony
set for 5 p.m. Wednesday, Feb. 27. The new Bayshore
District Customer and Operations Center is at 241 N.
Delaware St. Email infoBAY@calwater.com for more infor-
mation.
***
Downtown San Mateo has been noticeably cleaner in
recent months after stepped up efforts by the city to give it a
scrubbing. It’s not perfect, but better. A little effort goes a
long way when it comes to cleanliness. And it’s good to lead
by example — as members of HANCSM are doing. Know of
anyone making a difference? Let me know!
***
Anyone who has encountered Mission Hospice and Home
Care knows what incredibly important work it provides our
community. Being present and assisting during the dying
process is a tremendous gift to families and loved ones. And
it’s been doing it now for 40 years.
Since its founding, it has served more than 15,000
patients. The organization recently celebrated its anniver-
sary and introduced Lisa Deal as the new CEO. She replaces
outgoing CEO Dwight Wilson.
In 2018, Mission Hospice served more than 1,700
patients and families.
***
The San Mateo Public Library Foundation eighth annual
author’s gala this April will feature former U.S. ambassador
to Russia Michael McFaul. The author’s gala raises money
for the library and also its technology lending services,
which are becoming a vital resource for the community.
McFaul is the author of the New York Times best-seller
“From Cold War to Hot Peace: An American Ambassador in
Putin’s Russia.” Think he might have insight on certain cur-
rent events?
Go to bidpal.net/authorsgala for more information.
***
On a final note, there was quite the hullaballoo about the
pronouncement of J. Kenji López-Alt that his restaurant
Wursthall in downtown San Mateo would not serve anyone
wearing a MAGA hat. The San Francisco Chronicle reported
that this week — and then it became a thing with opinions
all around.
Here is mine. On one hand, it is best not to discriminate
against people for their political beliefs or their attire, or to
make generalizations about them. That’s an extremely dan-
gerous practice and questions can arise over where to draw
the line. On the other hand, anyone can say whatever they
want at any time. That’s called freedom of expression.
López-Alt is outspoken, so what? Lots of people like that
about him.
But a random tweet can make it across the nation and the
world pretty quick, become a big thing, then disappear. It’s
that becoming a big thing part that can be painful, especial-
ly for staff.
But lost in all this, someone pointed out to me, is that
Wursthall is now serving Pliny the Elder. Now that’s news
you can really use. No matter your political beliefs.

S&P has biggest monthly gain since 2015

By Damian J. Troise
and Alex Veiga
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Wall Street got its mojo back in
January after finishing 2018 with
its worst December since 1931.
Stocks finished higher
Thursday, closing out the month
with the best gain for the S&P 500
index since October 2015.
A series of strong corporate
earnings helped power the month-
long rally, which followed a dis-
mal December that nearly brought
the benchmark index into a bear
market, meaning a decline of 20
percent from a recent peak.
Facebook helped drive the mar-
ket higher on Thursday after
reporting solid user metrics.
Charter Communications soared
after its revenue came in ahead of
forecasts. General Electric also
climbed. Amazon reported earn-
ings after the close of regular trad-
ing that topped Wall Street’s fore-
casts.
Homebuilders surged following
new data showing sales of new
U.S. homes soared in November.
Strong results and outlooks
from big U.S. companies seem to
be calming some of the fears
investors had that a recession
might be looming.
“Overall, we’re still encouraged
that this earning season is com-
forting to people, ” said Ryan
Detrick, senior market strategist
at LPL Financial.
The S&P 500 index rose 23.05
points, or 0. 9 percent, to
2,704.10. It rose 7.9 percent in
January. In December, it tumbled
9.2 percent.
The Dow Jones Industrial
Average fell 15.19 points, or 0.1
percent, to 24, 999. 67. The
Nasdaq composite climbed 98.66

7,281.74. The Russell 2000 index
of smaller companies picked up
12.48 points, or 0.8 percent, to
1,499.42.
Communications, health care
and consumer goods and services
stocks powered Thursday’s market
gain as investors remained
focused on corporate earnings,
which have been mixed.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — U.S. employers likely
kept adding jobs at a healthy pace in
January even in the face of threats ranging
from weakening global growth to the Trump
administration’s trade war with China to the
partial shutdown of the government.
On Friday, the Labor Department will
issue the monthly employment report, the
first major economic report to cover most of
the 35-day shutdown period that ended a
week ago.
Economists have forecast that employers
added 165,000 jobs and that the unemploy-
ment rate remained at a low 3.9 percent,
according to data provider FactSet. The pre-
dicted job gain would be a solid one, though
it would follow a blowout figure of 312,000
jobs that were added in December.
The partial government shutdown, the
longest on record, isn’t expected to have had
a significant effect on the January jobs
report. That’s because of how the govern-
ment will categorize the 800,000 federal
workers who weren’t paid for five weeks. All
will be counted as employed in the govern-
ment’s count of jobs in January. That means
the economy will almost certainly record the
100th straight month of job gains, a record.
Still, some of the roughly 380,000 feder-
al workers who didn’t work and weren’t paid
might be counted as unemployed in a sepa-
rate survey the government uses to calculate
the unemployment rate. If so, this could
inflate the jobless rate by 0.2 percentage
point, economists say, though the effect
would be reversed in February as federal
employees return to work.
Unlike some government agencies, the
Labor Department received its annual fund-
ing before the shutdown and has operated
normally throughout.

Deadlock in PAL Bay
M-A rallies to tie Aragon in battle of league frontrunners
By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
If you’re an opponent playing Menlo-
Atherton, try not to blink. Because, no
matter the sport, this year’s M-A teams can
flip the script in a hurry.
It has been a recurring theme. On the
football field, M-A won the Central Coast
Section title by overcoming a 21-7 deficit
against Wilcox in the championship game.
Last week on the wrestling mat, the M-A
boys overcame a 30-9 deficit against
Burlingame to rally back and clinch a share
of the Peninsula Athletic League Bay
Division crown.
Well, the M-A girls’ soccer team was wel-
comed to the comeback club Thursday. The
Bears battled back to earn a 2-2 tie with
Aragon (4-1-2 PAL Bay, 9-3-3 overall),
keeping the two teams tied atop the PAL
Bay Division standings. M-A trailed 2-0
with 15 minutes to play, but two goals by
senior forward Elise Kratzer kept the two-
time reigning PAL Bay champs in line for a
potential three-peat.
“I think it’s just a testament to the play-
ers that they don’t give up,” M-A head
coach Jason Luce said. “That’s been our
message the whole time, is to play the
whole time no matter how it goes. It didn’t
look good to start but we stuck to the chal-
lenge. We risked a little bit at the end and it
paid off for us.”
M-A (4-1-2, 6-7-3) was getting no pene-
tration through Aragon’s middle, and went
into the second half trailing 2-0 after get-
ting just one shot on goal before the break.
Then, with 15 minutes to go, Luce was
forced to gamble, subbing in a fourth
attacker up front.
“We had nothing to lose,” Luce said.
The adjustment changed everything.
“Any time you play a reigning two-time
league champion, you have to come in with
the mindset we have to play our best game,”

Bearcats claim Ocean crown
By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
When San Mateo wrestling coach Jason
Cervantes took over the program, numbers
were low and forfeits were frequent.
Three years later, the Bearcats are Peninsula
Athletic League Ocean Division champions.
Fighting back from an early deficit, San
Mateo won five matches in a row to take con-
trol as the Bearcats would go on to post a 57-
27 win over Oceana to finish with a perfect 6-
0 division record.

Aragon forward Alexa Abad, left, and Menlo-Atherton forward Elise Kratzer contend for a late
possession Thursday at Coach Parks Field in Atherton. M-A battled back to tie Aragon 2-2,
keeping the two teams tied for first place in the PAL Bay Division girls’ soccer standings.
That was 2002 — 17
years ago, which counts
as a few career lifetimes
for most NFL players.
Brady is 41 now and
insists the years haven’t
changed him much from
that first Super Sunday

“In many ways, I’m
similar,” Brady said this week while prepar-
team,” Cervantes said. “Last year, we just fell
short.”
In 2018, the Bearcats’ only league dual-meet
loss came to eventual champion Aragon.
This year, San Mateo wanted to seal the deal
and, with new team motto of “Squeeze,” the
Bearcats went out and took the title.
“Last year we weren’t squeezing enough to
pin our opponents,” Cervantes said as the
Bearcats chant “Squeeze! Squeeze!” as their
teammates close in on a pin. “So this year,
‘Squeeze!’ They even made a banner.”

Arenado, Rockies avoid arbitration with $26M deal

DENVER — Nolan Arenado pro-
duces big numbers whether he
steps into the batter’s box or up to
the negotiating table.
The All-Star third baseman and
the Colorado Rockies agreed to a
$26 million deal to avoid arbitra-

manager Jeff Bridich to hammer
out the historic deal.
Josh Donaldson set the previous

Knicks deal Porzingis to

NEW YORK — The New York Knicks were
having their doubts, wondering if Kristaps
Porzingis truly wanted to be part of the fran-
chise.
On Thursday, they say he made it clear he
didn’t.
Once that happened, they decided to trade
the All-Star forward who was thought to be
one of the key players for their future.

“And I think in the first half we really did.
We really needed to get that third goal. I
think that would have made a big differ-
ence.”
In the 66th minute, the Bears got their
first legitimate chance on goal of the game
when Kratzer slipped behind the defensive
middle back. Midfielder Yara Gomez Zavala
lobbed a pass over Aragon freshman Meher
Banik, who just missed getting a piece of it
with an attempt at a leaping header. Instead,
the ball found Kratzer in stride, who drilled a
shot off Aragon goalkeeper Nicole Shulman
and in to cut the deficit to 2-1.
“Once you get the one, you start to feel
it,” Luce said.
Then M-A started exploiting the wings,
challenging some hesitant defense by
Aragon. The result saw the Bears pressure
the goal for the closing 10 minutes.

Porzingis has been sidelined for nearly a

It looked as though M-A missed its chance
in the 77th minute when junior midfielder
Judy Demirkol received a pass from Lexi
Quinn on the right flank in tempo, but her
shot buzzed over the crossbar to leave the
Bears’ sideline gasping in disappointment.
“She gave me a really great ball, ”
Demirkol said. “… and then we kept the
mindset and were just like, ‘Get another
one. Get another one.’ And so we did.”
Two minutes later, with time winding
down, Aragon looked to clear the ball. But
M-A wrestled control at midfield and sent
the ball back up.
“We weren’t able to settle the ball at our
midfield, which we usually do,” Flynn said.
“M-A really stepped up and put a lot of pres-
sure on us. It was the opposite of the first
half of what we were able to do to them. We
got a little unsettled and just weren’t able to
link up with our midfield and our forward
line.”
The ball again went to Demirkol. The jun-
ior couldn’t shake her defender, but took a
shot that glanced off Aragon to set up a cor-
ner kick. The initial corner saw Shulman in
the Aragon goal slap away a sharp bender.

socked it in to set off a frenzy of celebration
with the game-tying goal.
Overcoming two goals was the biggest
comeback for M-A this season.
“This one was the best one yet, ”
Demirkol said.
It was a much different level of competi-
tion than the first time the two PAL Bay
Division frontrunners met Jan. 10 when M-
A dominated for a 2-0 win. Aragon was
missing three starters that day, however
— two defenders, due to injury, and Shulman
in goal, who was training with the Israeli
women’s national team.
With its full squad on the pitch Thursday,
Aragon scored in the opening minutes, with
senior forward Jessica Gutierrez booting
one home in the third minute. Then in the
26th minute, senior Jayla Stokesberry took
a free kick from just outside the hash that
was fended off by M-A keeper Emily
McMaster, but the rebound found senior
midfielder Sophie Louie, who tapped it in to
make it 2-0.
With three game left on the PAL Bay

he also ended up winning by pinfall. He started
slowly, leading 2-0 after one round. Kagedal
built up a bigger lead in the second period, get-
ting an escape to start the round before nearly
sticking the pin, only to see time round out.
In the third, Kagedal finally got his pin,
using a throw that he quickly turned into a near-
fall and finally ended the match at the 4:21
mark.
“They’re two of my team captains … and they
got it started,” Cervantes said of Rivas Aguilar’s
and Kagedal’s victories. “I was expecting our
middle weights and heavier weights would take
over.”
Kagedal’s win cut San Mateo’s deficit to 27-
24 in the team score and it was Mohammed
Sarsour’s win by decision at 170 that tied the
team score at 27-all. Sarsour also got off to a
slow start, even being warned for stalling.
Moments later, he scored the first points of the
match by gaining control. Oceana’s Roberto
Canales got a point back with an escape to start
the second period, but Sarsour gave himself
some breathing room with a takedown to go up
4-1. He added one takedown in the third to post
a 6-2 win.
It was Christian Lemus’ third-round pin at 182
that gave San Mateo the lead for good, 33-27.
He toyed with his opponent in the first round,
leading 10-0 after two minutes. He slowed down
a bit in the second, getting an escape, but put
his opponent away with a pin at the 4:34 mark
of the six-minute match.
There was a double forfeit at 197 before San
Mateo got back to its winning ways, with
Gerber Peleaz earning the Bearcats’ fourth pin in
five matches at 220, finishing off the win with
four seconds left in the first round.
The Bearcats picked up another six points for
a forfeit win at heavyweight and Jude Sarsour put
an exclamation on their title with a first-round
pin at 108.
The match started with each team picking up
a six-point forfeit win. Oceana’s Dmitriy
Muratov won the first contested match, win-
ning by second-round pin at 128. He jumped on
his opponent early, building a 9-2 lead after one
period before closing out the win at the 2:50
mark of the second.
That was the first of three wins in a row for the
Sharks. Irvin Reyes, ranked No. 9 in CCS at
132, managed only one takedown in the open-
ing round, but he quickly finished off his oppo-
nent in the second, earning a pin 31 seconds in.
David Orozco then held off San Mateo’s Ben
Lui 4-1 at 140 to give Oceana a 21-6 lead.
But then the Bearcats came roaring back.

“We had some tight ones,” Bermudez said.
“These guys, they refuse to lose some-
times.”
It took a standout performance from
Nueva forward Kyle McGraw to stop the
streak this season. The senior scored a
game-high 32 points to counter Pacific
Bay’s wonky shooting night. The Eagles
shot just 37 percent from the field, led by
center Dwight Bumgarner’s 18 points.
Junior guard Diego Sotto was just 2 of 9
from the field for six points.
“You want to keep it going,” Bermudez
said. “But the real big goal is … we want to
make a run at it in [the Central Coast Section
playoffs].”
Bermudez stacked a tough non-league
schedule against his Eagles this season.
Pacific Bay lost eight straight non-league
games to start the year.
“They knew that was just going to make
them better,” Bermudez said.
Bermudez took over the Eagles’ basketball

The teams play again on Saturday at
Stanford.
The Bears were in control most of the
game but fell behind 78-77 when Alanna
Smith went around Anigwe for a layup with
30.7 seconds remaining.
After Thomas put Cal back in front with
her first points of the game on the two free
throws with 9.5 seconds to go, Carrington
made a pair of free throws to give Stanford
an 80-79 lead.
Bears coach Lindsay Gottlieb called a
timeout to advance the ball to midcourt, and
Thomas dribbled briefly before driving to
the basket.
It was a significant blow to Stanford,
which lost to Utah 74-58 last Sunday. With
the loss to Cal, the Cardinal dropped 1 1/2
games behind Oregon in the Pac-12 stand-
ings.
Head coach Mark Bermudez took over the boys’ program at Pacific Bay Christian in 2009-10.
2009-10, the two private schools merged

It took four years for the Eagles to ascend
to the top of the PSAL North, but it was at
the beginning of that 2012-13 season —
with just one senior on the roster in 5-10
center Ben Yeeles — that Bermudez realized
his program was on the rise.
“I could tell that was the year we could real-
ly get something going,” Bermudez said.
This year’s squad is reminiscent of the
2012-13 in terms of youth. Only, this sea-
son, Pacific Bay has no seniors on roster. Of
its 12 players, nine are juniors, two are
sophomores and one — Bumgarner’s

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The NCAA handed
one-year postseason bans and other penal-
ties to Missouri’s football, baseball and
softball programs while placing its entire
athletic department on probation Thursday
after a two-year investigation revealed aca-
demic misconduct involving a former tutor.
The penalties mean that the Tigers’ high-
ly regarded football team won’t be eligible
for the SEC title game or a bowl game this
fall. Their baseball and softball programs
will not be allowed to participate in the
SEC Tournament or the NCAA Tournament.
Missouri Chancellor Alexander N.
Cartwright said the school would appeal
“this harsh and inconsistent decision.” Any
appeal could take several months.
“We are shocked and dismayed by the
penalties that have been imposed today and
will aggressively fight for what is right,”
athletic director Jim Sterk said. “The
Committee on Infractions has abused its
discretion in applying penalties in this
case, and the university will immediately
appeal this decision that has placed unfair
penalties on our department and programs.
“It is hard to fathom that the university
could be cited for exemplary cooperation
throughout this case, and yet end up with
these unprecedented penalties that could
unfairly and adversely impact innocent cur-
rent and future Mizzou student-athletes.”
The Division I Committee on Infractions
said the former tutor, Yolanda Kumar, admit-
ted in late 2016 she had “violated NCAA
ethical conduct, academic misconduct and
academic extra benefits rules when she com-
pleted academic work for 12 student-ath-
letes.”
Kumar told the panel she felt pressured to
ensure athletes passed certain courses, pri-
marily in mathematics. But according to the
committee’s report, “the investigation did
not support that her colleagues directed her
to complete the student-athletes’ work.”
NCAA investigators said Kumar complet-
ed course work offered by Missouri, those
offered by other schools and a math place-
ment exam required of all students.

Super Bowl history
49ers cement legacy
Super Bowl XXIII
San Francisco 20, Cincinnati 16
Jan. 22, 1989
After a week of riots within Miami, San Francisco captured
its third Super Bowl of the 1980s and became the first NFC
team to win three times.
The 49ers outgained the Bengals 454 to 229, but found
themselves trailing late in the game. Jim Breech’s 40-yard field
goal, with 3:20 remaining gave Cincinnati a 16-13 lead.
San Francisco started the winning drive at its 8-yard line,
with quarterback Joe Montana (“Joe Cool”) famously scanning
the crowd at the beginning of the march and telling his team-
mates, “Look, there’s John Candy.”
Then Montana took apart Cincinnati’s defense. On the 11th
play of the series, Montana hit John Taylor with a 10-yard pass
over middle for the winning touchdown with 34 seconds
remaining.
At halftime, the score was 3-3. Both teams exchanged field
goals third-quarter field goals and Stanford Jennings’ 93-yard
kickoff return gave the Bengals a 13-6 lead with 4 seconds
remaining in the third quarter.
The 49ers came back with an 85-yard drive in four plays,
concluding with Montana’s 14-yard pass to Jerry Rice. Rice
was voted the most valuable player after catching 11 passes for
a record 215 yards. Montana completed 23 of 36 passes for a
record 357 yards.
Super Bowl XXIV
San Francisco 55, Denver 10
Jan. 28, 1990
Denver never had a chance.
The San Francisco 49ers routed the Broncos 55-10 in the
most lopsided Super Bowl. By halftime, it was 27-3 and after
three quarters, it was 41-10.
The 49ers became the first repeat NFL champion in a decade
and tied the Pittsburgh Steelers as a pinnacle of Super Bowl per-
fection with four wins in four tries. The Broncos, on the other
hand, lost their fourth Super Bowl and John Elway fell to 0-3.
Joe Montana threw for a record five touchdowns, three to
Jerry Rice, and also set a record with 13 straight pass comple-
tions. Montana completed 22 of 29 passes for 297 yards and
Rice caught seven passes for 148 yards.
Montana also set five Super Bowl career records, including
his third Super Bowl Most Valuable Player award, and San
Francisco’s point total was the most ever.

Judge rejects possible ’do-over’
of Rams-Saints playoff game
NEW ORLEANS —A quest by two New Orleans Saints tick-
etholders to force a full or partial do-over of this year’s NFC
championship game because of a blown “no-call” by game
officials was rejected Thursday by a federal judge.
Filed two days after the game, the lawsuit says the NFL
should be forced to implement a rule allowing Commissioner
Roger Goodell to investigate “extraordinarily unfair acts” that
affect the game. Remedies under that rule include rescheduling
the game in full, or from the point at which the unfair act
occurred.
Officials failed to call interference or roughness penalties
when a Rams player leveled a Saints receiver with a helmet-to-
helmet hit at a crucial point in the final minutes of regulation
time. The Rams won the Jan. 20 game in overtime and are set
to play the New England Patriots in Sunday’s Super Bowl in
Atlanta.

days old, Goff will be the fourth-youngest quarterback to
start a Super Bowl game — and the first millennial. Brady is
actually fifth on that list, at 24 years, 184 days old.
The 17-year age gap is the largest between starting quar-
terbacks in Super Bowl history. And, if you want to feel
really old, make a pop culture reference from about 20 years
ago or so, and Goff will shake his head and shrug his shoul-
ders because he’ll probably have no clue what you’re talk-
ing about.
“I’ll get asked about stuff all the time,” Goff said. “If it’s
from any time in the ‘90s, I probably don’t remember it. I
was, you know, born in 94, so.”
Goff doesn’t recall anything about the first time Brady
hoisted the Lombardi Trophy. In fact, his first Super Bowl
memory didn’t come until two years later when the Patriots
beat the Carolina Panthers.
“It’s a guy that you’ve looked up to for so long,” Goff
said, “and now I get a chance to play in one with him.”
Grizzled veteran vs. inexperienced youngster.
Old school vs. new school.
But the overwhelming passion to win at all costs is clear-
ly ingrained in both — no matter the age difference.
“I loved playing then, I still love playing now,” said
Brady, who stands firm in his desire to play until he’s 45. “I
don’t take anything for granted, I really don’t. I enjoy it. I
think we all work hard at it, but to get to this point is real-
ly exceptional. I’m proud of the guys for making the com-
mitment and it’s certainly not easy. I think everyone at this
point is tired and worn down but at the same time, you have
one of the great opportunities in your life.
“This is a memory you’ll have forever and I really hope we
can go out and take advantage of it.”

that they were California kids who grew up in Bay Area

of mandamus,” forcing the NFL or Goodell to take action.

Seventh grade QB, gets two tickets to Super Bowl
FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — A seventh-grade girl from New
Hampshire who was bullied for playing quarterback on a youth
football team is going to the Super Bowl courtesy of the New
England Patriots.
Dejah Rondeau, of Exeter, who wears No. 11 in honor of
Julian Edelman, her favorite player, was invited to
Foxborough recently to meet Edelman and team owner Robert
Kraft after the team learned of her experience.
In a video posted on the team’s website, Edelman played
catch with her and surprised her with a pair of tickets.
Dejah told Seacoastonline.com she was “super happy” and
“never in a million years thought I would go to a Super Bowl.”
She says she doesn’t see the game in terms of gender, she
just wants to be the best football player and teammate possi-
ble.
He knows Goff represents hope for a franchise on the
upswing that yearns for success after several subpar sea-
sons. Unlike Brady, who was a sixth-round pick in 2000,
Goff was the No. 1 overall selection in 2016. Leading up to
the draft, there were even comparisons of Goff to Brady for
the youngster’s footwork, pocket presence and accuracy.
Goff showed flashes during a shaky rookie season of what
everyone is seeing now on a regular basis.
“Oh, for sure, you could see the intangibles, the throws he
made on film and in the game,” Patriots safety Duron
Harmon said of the first time New England faced Goff in the
youngster’s third career start in 2016.
“I remember he threw a nine-route to the sideline and it
was on a rope,” Harmon added, “and you realize why he was
the first overall pick.”
Just three seasons in, Goff is in his first Super Bowl —
and many think this could be the first of several with him as
the face of the Rams franchise.
“He’s an unfazed quarterback,” Rams coach Sean McVay
said. “I think his way to have success and handle adversity
the same demonstrates that poise and confidence you want
from your quarterback.”
A lot like the guy on the other sideline.
“I think there’s more similarities than differences,” said
Rams cornerback Aqib Talib, who played with Brady during
the 2012 and 2013 seasons. “Everybody has different per-
sonalities, and they’re different ages, but they’re both good
quarterbacks with a big arm, smart players, get the offense
in and out of the huddle, and can make every throw on the
field. They’re both dangerous and they’ve got good team-
mates.
“From a defensive perspective, they’re more similar than
they are (different).”
Neither can stand to lose. And they didn’t get this far by
accepting defeat at any level.
But just one will walk off the field Sunday feeling satis-
fied, having won a Super Bowl for the ages.
“I think loving the game and trying to improve and be the
best I can be for the team is great motivation for me and I’ve
just always spoke about winning and that’s what I love to
do,” Brady said. “That’s why I’m here.”

Venezuela opposition leader to police: Leave my family alone

By Christine Armario
and Fabiola Sanchez
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CARACAS, Venezuela — The Venezuelan
opposition leader challenging Nicolas
Maduro’s claim to the presidency warned offi-
cers from a feared state security unit Thursday
to stay away from his family after he accused
them of showing up at his apartment in a
tense brush with the very force he is trying to
persuade to switch allegiance and back him.
A visibly flustered but determined Juan
Guaido told a crowd gathered at a university
that members of a special police unit known
for its brutal tactics had gone to his high-rise
apartment in a middle-class neighborhood of
Caracas while his 20-month-old daughter was
inside.
“I hold you responsible for anything that
might happen to my baby,” the 35-year-old
lawmaker said as his wife stood beside him.
He rushed home and emerged an hour later
holding his smiling daughter, named for
Francisco de Miranda, a Venezuelan patriot
who paved the way for Venezuela’s independ-
ence, and described how four agents from the
police’s Special Action Force had arrived at
the building and asked security guards sta-
tioned there for his wife.
“Children are sacred,” he admonished the
agents as a crowd of supporters applauded.
“Wives are sacred. So don’t cross that red
line.”
In a statement on Twitter, Venezuela’s
police denied that special agents had gone to
“Once more they are playing the intimida-
tion game,” Guaido said. “They’re not going
to succeed in intimidating this Venezuelan
family.”
Even while denouncing the special police
force, Guaido appealed to them and the mili-
tary to abandon Maduro and abide by the con-
stitution, which he contends instructs him as
leader of the opposition-controlled National
Assembly to take the presidency. The oppo-
sition and a large segment of the internation-
al community consider Maduro’s reelection
fraudulent, in part because the president’s
most popular adversaries were barred from
running.
“You have time to put yourselves on the
right side of history,” Guaido said.
U.S. officials who have warned Maduro will
face “serious consequences” if he harms
Guaido denounced the incident as a disgrace-
ful intimidation tactic.

Breakthrough: Lebanon gets a

new government to save economy
BEIRUT — Lebanese political factions
agreed Thursday to form a new government,
breaking a nine-month deadlock that only
deepened the country’ economic woes.
Rival political groups had been locked in
disagreement over the make-up of a new
government since May, after the country’s
first parliamentary elections in nine years.
Lebanon’s powerful Shiite group
Hezbollah made significant gains at the
expense of the largest Sunni party, headed
by Prime Minister Saad Hariri, further con-
tributing to traditional horse trading among
rival factions to form governments in
Lebanon.
A breakthrough became possible after
weeks of backroom deals as economic pres-
sures mounted. The rival factions worked
out a compromise allowing representation
of Sunni lawmakers backed by Hezbollah,
increasing the group’s allies in the govern-
ment.
Around the world
Activists in Paris protest
against Google’s tax setup
PARI — Activists from an anti-globaliza-
tion group have staged a protest at Google’s
Paris headquarters to criticize the company
for paying little tax.
Attac members gathered at Google’s
offices Thursday and set up a pulley to pass
bags of fake money between the firm’s
premises and a public finance center across
the street.
According to Attac, Google’s French sub-
sidiary reported revenue of 325 million
euros ($371 million) in 2017 and paid 14
million euros ($16 million) in income tax.
The group says Google France shifts more
than 85 percent of its French revenue to
countries with more favorable tax regimes.
So-called profit-shifting is technically
legal in the EU, where foreign companies
have their regional base in one country
where they negotiate favorable tax terms.
Foreign secretary: Brexit
may have to be delayed
By Danica Kirka
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LONDON — A key member of Prime
Minister Theresa May’s government
acknowledged Thursday that Britain’s exit
from the European Union may have to be
delayed if negotiations on a divorce deal drag
on.
Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt told the
BBC that while it is difficult to know whether
negotiations will stretch to the final hours, a
delay may be necessary to pass legislation to
implement Brexit. His comments gained
attention because of fears the country is sim-
ply not ready to leave — even though May’s
Downing Street office insisted nothing had
changed.
“I think it is true that if we ended up approv-
ing a deal in the days before 29 March then we
might need some extra time to pass critical
legislation, but if we are able to make
progress sooner then that might not be nec-
essary,” Hunt said.
The comments come as the influential
think tank, the Institute for Government,
warned the government was not ready should
a no-deal Brexit come to pass. The think tank
predicted that in a majority of broad policy
areas, including health and borders, the gov-
ernment would be unable to avoid “major neg-
ative impacts.”
“It is not just the government that needs to
be ready - business and cit-
izens need to know how
the changes will affect
them and what they need
to do,” it said in a report.
Britain’s carmakers
issued a stark assessment
Thursday about Brexit’s
impact on the industry,
Theresa May warning that two-thirds of
the country’s global trade
is at risk if the U.K. leaves the European
Union without an agreement on the future.
Investment in the industry fell 46 percent
last year and new car production dropped 9.1
percent to 1.52 million vehicles in 2018, in
part because of concerns over Brexit, the
Society of Motor Manufacturing said. Chief
executive Mike Hawes has described the
threat of a no-deal as “catastrophic.”
“With fewer than 60 days before we leave
the EU and the risk of crashing out without a
deal looking increasingly real, UK
Automotive is on red alert,” Hawes said.
“Brexit uncertainty has already done enor-
mous damage to output, investment and
jobs.”
Hawes said the figures showing a drop in
investment, stark though they are, pale in
comparison to what is ahead should the U.K.
leave the EU on March 29 without a deal, sev-
ering frictionless trade links overnight with
the EU and other global markets.

Everything is pretty good in ‘The
LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part’
By Lindsey Bahr
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
“The LEGO Movie” is a hard act to follow.
Its world was so fresh and vibrant and unex-
pected, it’s no wonder that it spawned a
number of spinoffs of varying quality. But
the big test was always going to be the
sequel and whether or not it could recreate
the magic of the first. And I’m pleased to
report that “The LEGO Movie 2: The Second
Part” is pretty darn good, but also you can’t
help shake the feeling that it’s just never
going to live up to the exciting newness of
the first.
The script, written by Phil Lord and
Christopher Miller, is once again whip-
smart. Jokes and clever pop culture refer-
ences whizz by at lightning speed and
you’ll be lucky to catch even half of them
on the first watch. Even the songs (there are
a few more this time) are packed with Lord
and Miller wit. And you’ll definitely want to
stay for the credits song which, oddly
enough, is one of the best parts of the
movie despite not really being part of the
movie.
But there’s something that’s lost in this
round. With a new director at the helm in
Mike Mitchell (“Trolls,” “Sky High”) you
sense sometimes that the film is just going
through the motions. Still, it has charm and
winking fun to spare and kids will likely
adore it just as much.

Chickpeas and escarole combine for hearty flavor combo
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
In Sicily, chickpeas are the favored
legume to use in soup. In this version the
mild bean shares the stage with escarole.
We knew that dried chickpeas were the way
to go for our traditional soup because we
could infuse them with lots of flavor as they
cooked.
For aromatics, we started with the classic
flavors of the region: onion, garlic,
oregano and red pepper flakes. We also
added fennel, which grows wild throughout
Sicily; its mild anise bite complemented
the nutty chickpeas. A strip of orange zest
added a subtle citrus note, while a Parmesan
rind bolstered the chickpeas’ flavor with a
nutty richness and complexity. When
stirred in for the last 5 minutes of cooking,
the escarole leaves wilted until velvety and
the stems retained a slight crunch.
To speed up the process if you’re tight on
time, you can use our quick-salt-soak
method for the beans: Combine the salt,
water and chickpeas in a Dutch oven and
bring them to a boil over high heat.
Remove the pot from the heat, cover, and
let stand for 1 hour. Drain and rinse the
beans and proceed with the recipe. The
Parmesan rind can be replaced with a 2-inch
chunk of the cheese.

his own movie stardom. He’s a “galaxy-

“chiseled features that used to be hidden
under baby fat.”
Rex’s crew is made up entirely of veloci-

made me laugh every time. He and the

even feel rather similar to “Toy Story 3” at
times. It’s not entirely their fault, once the
real world element was revealed in the first
“LEGO Movie,” there are only so many
directions you can go and the big stakes
that all toys face being forgotten and the
threat of being shoved away into storage.
I’m not sure just how much more the stu-
dio can mine out of this concept that was
once so brilliant. But happily, “The LEGO
Movie 2” doesn’t destroy everything the
first worked so hard to build. It’s just try-
ing very hard to be exactly the same.
“The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part,” a
Warner Bros. Pictures release is rated PG by
the Motion Picture Association of America
for “for some rude humor.” Running time:
106 minutes. Three stars out of four.

businesses were among the dozens of
volunteers gathered at the Fair Oaks
Community Center in Redwood City 5
a.m. Thursday to pick up clipboards,
maps and badges before they embarked
on the county’s biennial One Day
Homeless Count.
In reporting to the community cen-
ter at 2600 Middlefield Road for his
own shift, County Manager Mike
Callagy was encouraged to see so
many contribute time to an effort he
expects to refine the services available
to the county’s homeless population.
Callagy hoped volunteers would be
able to speak with some of the home-
less residents they encountered during
the five-hour effort to not only get a
more accurate count of the homeless
population but also better understand
their needs.
“This is really important for us to
get boots on the ground and actually
see how many people are living with-
out shelter,” he said. “I’m so impressed
to see all these people get up this early
and who care so much about the com-
munity they live in.”
Nicole Pollack, the county’s Human
Services Agency director, said county
officials have been preparing for the
point-in-time effort since July.
Pollack said each of the more than 350
volunteers deployed to sites across
San Mateo County Thursday morning
went through a two-hour training
aimed at defining homelessness, best
practices for showing respect for those
they encounter and using a smartphone
application they can use to record
information they collect.
MAGA
Continued from page 1
come to my restaurant wearing a
MAGA cap, you aren’t getting served,
same as if you come in wearing a
swastika, white hood, or any other
symbol of intolerance and hate.”
The tweet was no longer available
Thursday but was reported to have
more than 2,100 likes and more than
200 retweets as of Wednesday after-
noon.
The red hats, which are sold on
President Donald Trump’s campaign
website, have become polarizing. The
hats were worn by some Kentucky
the morning to be able to capture the
state of an individual’s nighttime resi-
dence, noting many of the county’s
homeless population have full-time
jobs and the time when they are sleep-
ing can be a good time to do the count.
Though volunteers don’t wake those
who are sleeping, she said they may
ask those who are awake and willing
about their race, household and history
of chronic homelessness or substance
abuse, among other data.
Homeless shelters, agencies serving
the homeless and law and code enforce-
ment agencies log information the
county’s homeless population on a
countywide database, yet Pollack said
the data collected during the count sup-
plements the pool of information used
to prioritize efforts to end homeless-
ness in the county. She added the data
is also required by the U.S. Department
of Housing and Urban Development as
a tool for determining funding for
homelessness services.
“We have a strategic plan to end
homelessness in this county and all of
our partners are actively involved in
developing strategies, looking at the
data, realigning resources and sharing
resources in order to complete that
goal of ending homelessness,” she
said.
Of the 160 census tracts San Mateo
County volunteers covered Thursday,
Pacifica resident Susan Takalo and
Foster City resident Nadine Makki
were assigned to a tract inclusive of
downtown Redwood City and some sur-
rounding streets. Both Takalo, who
has worked at the Second Harvest Food
Bank for 35 years, and Makki, who
works at the Housing Leadership
Council of San Mateo County, have
seen the number of residents affected
high school students involved in a
Jan. 18 confrontation with a Native
American elder near the Lincoln
Memorial.
Lopez-Alt wrote the 2015 book
“The Food Lab: Better Home
Cooking Through Science. ” He
declined further comment, saying
that his restaurant has received
threatening emails following the
tweet.
San Mateo resident Jamie Hwang,
42, said she has mixed feelings about
the ban, saying that San Mateo is
diverse and members of her family
support Trump.
“I see where he’s coming from, but I
don’t think you should just keep peo-
ple out because of a hat,” Hwang said.
Her dining companion Esther Shek,

region’s cost of living has increased in
recent years, and were eager to support
an effort focused on the county’s hous-
ing population.
Having been deployed in Pacifica
during previous counts, Takalo said
she recommends the volunteer experi-
ence to anyone interested in part
because it causes one to think about
the daily challenges the homeless
face. The pair was able to speak with
one man during their shift, leading
Takalo to wonder whether the rainfall
ending just before the start of the count
may have affected the number of indi-
viduals out and about that morning.
“I’m really worried, ” she said.
“Where did they go? Did we just not see
them or are they somewhere out of the
rain?”
As a therapist for San Mateo County
Health’s Behavioral Health and
Recovery Services Division,
Christina Vasquez said she and Devin
Aceret, who works for the county as a
case manager, understand some of the
challenges the county’s homeless
population faces since they work with
clients who are homeless. Vasquez also
hoped volunteers’ presence could send
a message to homeless individuals that
they are important, valuable members
of society and serve as a way of intro-
ducing them to those who can help.
Both Vasquez and Aceret served as
volunteers during this year’s count,
and looked to the effort to allow those
who work with the county’s homeless
population to continue to improve
their services with their needs in mind.
“Being here at 5 a.m., I know that
this is may be early for me,” said
Aceret. “But I know that this is proba-
bly regular, every day for the people
we’re working with day to day.”
39, said she believed the hats had
“come to represent racism, intoler-
ance, exclusivity.” But she added that
refusing to serve Trump supporters
would exacerbate a situation where
talking about differences might be
better.
“They already feel like they’re
being demonized by what they call
the liberal elite, ” she said. “We
shouldn’t add fire to that.”
Bao Agbayani, who was visiting
from the Philippines, said the rule
banning the hats wouldn’t keep him
from dining at the restaurant. But he
said he was alarmed by what the rule
represented.
“You’re discriminating against
those with different political views,”
he said. “That’s just not OK.”

Shahnaz Ashraf
Case Number: 19PRO00061
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, con-
tingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or es-
tate, or both, of Shahnaz Ashraf. A Peti-
tion for Probate has been filed by Parvin
Kamal in the Superior Court of Califor-
nia, County of San Mateo. The Petition
for Probate requests that Parvin Kamal
be appointed as personal representative
to administer the estate of the decedent.
The petition requests the decedent’s will
and codicils, if any, be admitted to pro-
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
Administration of Estates Act. (This au-
thority will allow the personal representa-
tive to take many actions without obtain-
ing court approval. Before taking certain
very important actions, however, the per-
sonal representative will be required to
give notice to interested persons unless
they have waived notice or consented to
the proposed action.) The independent
administration authority will be granted
unless an interested person files an ob-
jection to the petition and shows good
cause why the court should not grant au-
thority.
A hearing on the petition will be held in
this court as follows: FEB. 20, 2019 at
9:00 a.m., Dept. 28, Superior Court of
California, County of San Mateo, 400
County Center, 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-

memory of the city and its libraries.”
A retirement party will be held for Spore-
Alhadef at the library’s community room
Friday, Feb. 1, and city and county officials
will present her with proclamations then.
“I love finding material for people and the
reason we all got into the business is
because we want that moment when we give
someone the material they’ve been asking
for, and they might not even know what
they’re looking for,” Spore-Alhadef said.
“[With this job] you get two things I really
enjoy: learning new stuff and helping peo-
ple learn new stuff.”
Assisting students with research projects
and helping residents dig up information
about their ancestors were among the most
rewarding experiences for Spore-Alhadef,
who said she’d also often learn something
new in the process.

The Bay Area Council has taken the lead
on potential hovercraft service and last year

Elected officials from across the county
were also treated to a hovercraft presenta-
tion led by the Bay Area Council almost two
months ago.
“A lot of them expressed interest,” said
John Grubb, the council’s chief operating
officer. “No one said it was a bad idea.”
Hovercraft are 25 percent to 30 percent
faster than traditional ferries because they
face little to no water resistance and don’t
need to slow down close to shorelines
because they hardly generate wake, Grubb
said.  Kingdom and the Jones Act has historically

A local history aficionado, she could
often be found in the library’s local history
archive room. She’s written articles in vari-
ous publications about Redwood City, was
featured in the sesquicentennial DVD on the
history of the city and wrote three chapters
of “Redwood City: A Hometown History,”
including one called “Saloons, Breweries
and Bordellos.”
“I’ve dug up more weird information on
this town,” she said. “I’ve never lived in
Redwood City, but I probably know more
about its history than many of the resi-
dents.”
She recalled a time when bordellos were
not uncommon on Main Street, for exam-
ple, and can recount in detail the story of a
treasurer who embezzled $80, 000 from
Redwood City in the 1920s and was later
found dead by Emerald Lake.
That scandal led to Redwood City becom-
ing a charter city and a “much better gov-
erned place,” she said.
Spore-Alhadef grew up in a suburb of
Boston and earned her master’s degree in
library science at Peabody University in
ing is also not necessary with hovercraft,
nor do they require expensive and large-
scale marinas that are needed for ferries;
hovercraft passengers can disembark on a
concrete or gravel pad that’s easy to con-
struct, Grubb said.
He also said hovercraft consume less fuel
than catamarans and are significantly
cheaper to operate.
“It’s a real viable option and a very effec-
adding that the commuter experience is the
same as on ferries. “Hovercraft technology
has come a long way [since the 1950s when
the invention debuted]. Today when you ride
on a hovercraft it’s just like riding on a ferry
boat: same seats, handicap spots, places for
bikes plus food and coffee. And they’re
equivalent in terms of noise. You wouldn’t
know the difference.”
Part of the reason why hovercraft have
been less prevalent in the United States is
manufacturers are concentrated in the United

here, Grubb said, though American manufac-
Nashville, Tennessee. Her career spanned
52 years, the bulk of which she spent at the
Redwood City public library and she also
worked for several seminary libraries.
She’s wanted to be a librarian for as long
as she can remember.
“I remember setting up a library in our
house when I was a small child,” she said. “I
always loved reading and I’m a historian so
I loved reading a special subject area. I love
libraries, I really do.”
She began working at Redwood City’s
downtown public library in 1978 when it
was located across the street. About a month
into her new job, California voters
approved Proposition 13, which signifi-
cantly reduced property tax rates as well as
funding for city services, including
libraries.
“After seven weeks of working for the
city I was laid off and out of a job and didn’t
know if I’d work in a library again,” she
said. “It was tremendously depressing.”
She was rehired a couple of months later
to run cataloging and technical services in a
building at 900 Main St. that no longer

Another development that might help the
hovercraft vision become a reality is WETA

in part because of the passage of various
regional measures in recent years, Grubb
said.
If the WETA board approves a hovercraft
study, Grubb said “there’s no reason it
should take years,” adding that getting a

exists. Not long after that, she found herself
running the audio/visual center and its col-
lection of 8 mm and 16 mm films and about
10,000 LPs.
Around the time the library relocated to
the building it’s in now, the video revolu-
tion was about the start, she said.
“By that time the audio/visual collection
had expanded to CDs and the CD collection
was small and growing. And we were just
about to start buying our first videocas-
settes,” she said.
She spent 10 years cataloging audio
recordings and was an avid listener of the
classical music, but not so much the jazz
and rock, she said.
She also worked at the reference desk for
years and more recently, superintended the
computer room.
“Technology was being thrust upon us
whether we liked it or not,” she said.
Post retirement, Spore-Alhadef expects to
spend much of her time reading and volun-
teering.

she said.

to plan, but a private service could happen
in as little as one to two years.
“The service we road on in the Isle of
Wight [in England] was a private 80-pas-

it work and I don’t think we’re that different
here.”
