City expands outdoor dining

Redwood City to allow more sidewalk cafes throughout downtown
By Bill Silverfarb
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

All restaurants in downtown

Redwood City will now be able to
apply for a permit to offer outdoor dining as the City Council voted to redefine the area where sidewalk cafes are
allowed.

Sidewalk cafes have been a fixture in

downtown since 1993 but the ordinance that allowed for the use limited
where they could be.
A portion of Broadway between
Arguello and Main streets was inadvertently left out of the area where sidewalk cafes would be permitted. Staff
believes that was done in error,

Planning Manager Steven Turner

wrote in a report to council.
Council amended the ordinance last
week to now allow all restaurants
within the Downtown Precise Plan
area to apply for the permit.

School officials PANTHERS NAB THE PAW

prep for possible
enrollment hike
Tax measure studied
as growth expected
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Due in part to fears new homes

built near the Millbrae train station will send a wave of students to
the local school district, officials
discussed ideas such as hiking fees
charged to builders or pursuing a
bond measure to ensure classrooms
are available to accommodate projected enrollment growth.
The Millbrae Elementary School
District Board of Trustees met
Thursday, Nov. 12, to address
enrollment issues which may be
caused by the proposed construction of mixed-use developments
near the citys Caltrain and Bay
Area Rapid Transit, or BART, stations.
School officials set in motion
plans to offer the district financial
relief which could be spent to build
new classrooms in coming years,
as available space is expected to
become an increasingly rare commodity, according to demographers report.
Under recommendation of district officials, the board approved
issuing requests for proposals to
polling firms to gauge voter support for a tax measure which would
be spent to construct classrooms
and school buildings needed to
house an expected influx of new
students.
Trustee Denis Fama said he
believed examining the feasibility
of a bond was a wise decision.
I believe we will need a bond
sooner than later, he said.
The school district called the
study session Thursday in advance
of an upcoming Millbrae Planning
Commission meeting, Monday,
Nov. 16, in which city officials are
set to recommend the City Council

South City
to consider
smoke ban
Officials say new ordinance is
needed to ensure public safety

35-6 in the 88th annual Little Big Game Saturday morning. SEE PAGE 11.

Looking to join the growing

local movement of cities working
to protect residents from exposure
to secondhand smoke, South San
Francisco officials laid the
groundwork to ban smoking in
apartment buildings and attached
living facilities.
The South San Francisco City
Council unanimously approved
during a study session Wednesday,
Nov. 4, to direct city staff to draft
a smoking ban ordinance which
would come back for formal
approval in January, according to
City Manager Mike Futrell.
Should the ordinance ultimately
be approved, South San Francisco
would join other local municipalities such as Belmont, Daly City,

San
Mateo,
Foster
City,
Burlingame and unincorporated
areas of San Mateo County which
have enacted similar bans.
Futrell said South San Francisco
officials are considering the ban to
offer those who live in apartments, condominiums, townhouses and other attached living complexes a means by which they can
protect themselves from exposure
to the harm of secondhand smoke.
There is no question secondhand smoke is the leading cause of
preventable death, said Futrell.
We have a number of multi-residential residences in town, and
more planned as we address our
housing shortage, so this is the
right time to address this health
risk.

Lawsuit threatened over school construction

A South San Francisco resident

claiming his home was damaged
by heavy construction at a nearby
school said he is prepared to file a

will cost to repair his property.

Last convict in mass school
bus kidnapping seeks parole
SACRAMENTO Three young men
from wealthy San Francisco Bay Area
families spent more than a year working on their perfect crime.
They converted three prisoner transport vans, built an underground bunker
to hold their hostages, even made a
lead box to hold the $5 million in ransom they expected to collect to block
radio signals if authorities inserted
tracking devices.
Then they kidnapped a school bus
full of children and buried them under
mounds of dirt in a crime that haunts
the victims nearly 40 years later.
They basically stole our whole
youth. Our childhood was completely
turned upside down, said Jodi
Heffington-Medrano, who was 10 at
the time.
Brothers James and Richard
Schoenfeld were convicted along with
their friend Frederick Newhall Woods
in the kidnapping, which lasted more
than a day before the children were
able to dig their way out. Now, only
Woods remains behind bars, and he is
asking a state parole board to free him.
An appeals court ordered Richard
Schoenfeld released in 2012, and Gov.
Jerry Brown paroled James Schoenfeld
in August. Woods, now 64, is set for a
parole hearing Nov. 19. Backers,
including a congresswoman and a
retired state appellate judge, argue that

There the driver and children, ages 5 to
14, were forced into a buried moving
van that had been outfitted with mattresses, water containers and some
snacks. The roof had partly collapsed
from the weight of the dirt, forcing the
kidnappers to shore it up.
The children, famished after hours
on the road, quickly ate most of the
snacks. The flashlight and candles
soon sputtered out, leaving them in
darkness in what Heffington-Medrano
called a collapsing tomb.
A prosecutor said the three men
planned the kidnapping as if it was

Students battle campus

sugary drink contract
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO Students at a

San Francisco university are objecting
to plans to give pouring rights to
Coca -Cola, Pepsi or another sugary
drink company.
The rights would allow the chosen
company to sell all the fountain drinks
at San Francisco State University residence halls and sporting events, as
well as stock vending machines and
campus stores, the San Francisco

Chronicle reported.
The university released a request for
proposals last spring.
Celia LoBuono Gonzalez, a 22-yearold junior, said shes furious that university officials would jeopardize students health by promoting such
unhealthy drinks.
University President Leslie Wong
said the school has made no decisions
and is trying to figure out whether to
enter into such an agreement.
Opponents of sugary beverages say

the drinks add empty calories and can

contribute to obesity and rotting
teeth. Soda makers tell the newspaper
that they offer a variety of choices,
including healthy and zero-calorie
drinks. San Francisco voters in 2014
rejected a 2-cent-per-ounce tax on sugary drinks. The proposal received more
than half of votes, but it needed a steep
two-thirds majority to pass.
Backers will try to qualify another
sugary soda tax measure for the 2016
November ballot.

Mom mourns loss of daughter killed in Paris

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LONG BEACH, Calif. The mother

of a 23-year-old California college student killed in the Paris terrorist attacks
said her daughter was an independent
young woman who loved school.
Nohemi Gonzalez, a senior studying
design at California State University,
Long Beach, was at a Paris restaurant
with fellow students when she was
fatally shot Friday.
Her mother, Beatriz Gonzalez, said
Saturday that Nohemi graduated high
school early and couldnt wait to move
to the dorms at college.
She was very independent since she
was little. Since kindergarten. I
remember she used to organize everything, Beatriz Gonzalez said. She
wanted to have a career and a family.
Nohemi Gonzalez was taking part in
an exchange program at the Strate
College of Design in France.
Her stepfather, Jose Hernandez, said
as the news in Paris broke, he began
receiving panicked texts from
Nohemis boyfriend in California,
who said he couldnt get in touch with
her.
I replied and I said, well dont
worry its OK. I tried to calm him
down, Hernandez said at the Los

Nohemi Gonzalez
Angeles County barbershop where he
works.
But then the FBI arrived at their door
and their worst fears were confirmed.
One of her Long Beach schoolmates
in Paris saw Gonzalez get shot, but she
was able to escape from Le Petit
Cambodge restaurant. She told school
officials she saw Gonzalez carried
away on a stretcher.
I and the entire campus are heartbroken to share this terrible news, said
Jane Close Conoley, president of the
university.
Design professor Michael LaForte
said Gonzalez stood out in the tight-

knit department.
Nohemi was something of a star in
our department, LaForte said. She
was a shining star, and she brought
joy, happiness, laughter to everybody
she worked with and her students, her
classmates. She functioned like a bit
of a mentor to younger students.
The university was notified of her
death by French school officials and
confirmed the death with her parents,
spokesman Michael Uhlenkamp said.
The family said the FBI informed
them it could be weeks before the body
is returned to the U.S. because of the
ongoing investigation.
Politicians and state university officials sent statements expressing their
sadness and offering condolences to
Gonzalezs family.
Gov. Jerry Brown said flags would be
flown at half-staff at the Capitol for
victims of the terror attacks that killed
at least 129 people.
The university said 17 of its students
were studying in France this semester
and the other 16 students were safe.
Gonzalez lived in the Los Angeles
suburb of El Monte.
A memorial vigil for Gonzalez is
scheduled for 4 p.m. Sunday at the
north entrance of the universitys student union.

Industry pushes to shape transportation law

By Joan Lowy
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Congress is
racing toward a Friday deadline to
renew the law that pays for national transportation programs, and
lobbyists trying to shape the legislation are in a frenzy.
Among the issues: the length of
trucks allowed on roads, whether
recalled used cars must be repaired
before they can be sold and how to
pay for bridges and highways.
The bill is the lobbyists best
shot in years at getting policies
their clients like or blocking regulations they dont.
Congress hopes to reconcile differences between the House and
Senate versions of the bill, and
send a compromise to President
Barack Obama before the governments authority to process highway and transit aid payments to
states expires.

CUSTOMS AND SECURITY FEES

Airlines are trying to scuttle a
plan that would use customs and
security fees shouldered by passengers to pay for roads and other
surface transportation projects.
Airlines for America, an industry
trade association, says its wrong
to ask travelers to pay for any-

thing unrelated to air travel.

FEDERAL RESERVE
The House killed a proposal,
opposed by the banking industry,
that would have helped pay for the
transportation bill by cutting
government dividends to large
banks.
Instead, the measure would
transfer $59 billion over 10 years
from a Federal Reserve account to
the Treasury. Former Federal
Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke
and Sen. Tom Carper, D-Del., have
said the transfer is sleight of hand
that actually raises no new money.
Banks are lobbying to keep the
bill as it is.

MORE MONEY
VS. MORE YEARS
Some 40 industry trade groups
and labor unions want congressional leaders to spend that newfound Federal Reserve money
faster to boost annual transportation spending, even if it means
there wont be enough to pay for a
full six years of transportation
programs.

TRANSIT AID
Northeastern lawmakers are
angered by a proposal that would

Around the nation

transit program benefiting seven
states with half the nations transit riders Massachusetts, Rhode
Island, Connecticut, New York,
New Jersey, Delaware and
Maryland. The provision would
spread the money to all states
through competitive grants for
bus programs. The lawmakers say
the change undermines an understanding with the bills sponsors
that the measure would not hurt
transit funding.

TRAIN VICTIMS
Trial lawyers want to increase

According to the American

enough investigators to pursue all
the information it receives on

RECALLED CARS

TAX COLLECTIONS

Used car dealers are feuding with

safety advocates over whether the
dealers should have to repair
recalled vehicles before selling
them. A provision would require
rental car companies to make
repairs before renting vehicles,
but used-car dealers are not included. Also, the House bill would let
new-car dealers loan cars to customers without making repairs.
New-car dealers already must
repair vehicles before selling
them.

The union representing IRS

employees opposes letting the
IRS use private debt-collection
agencies to recover overdue taxes
in low-priority cases the agency
otherwise would not pursue. This
provision would raise an estimated $5 billion over 10 years to help

Opponents point out that the last

Bushs administration, they
wound up costing the government
more money than they collected.

for safety defects, including faulty

OIL SALES
The oil industry is battling a
plan that would help pay for transportation programs by selling
101 million barrels of oil from the
Strategic Petroleum Reserve,
beginning in 2018. The provision assumes the oil can be sold
for $89 a barrel, about twice the
current price, to raise $9.1 billion

Paris hits boost Clintons

image, weaken policies
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON The deadly assaults in

Paris could bolster Hillary Rodham
Clintons image as a potential commander
in chief, even as the chaos in the Middle
East threatens to undercut the policy record
of the Democratic White House front-runner.
The attacks that killed 129 people, fueling a fresh wave of anxiety about the threats
posed by Islamic State militants, highlight
Clintons tenure as a former secretary of
state and her argument that she is the 2016
candidate most ready to sit in the Oval
Office. But in her role as President Barack
Obamas top diplomat, Clinton was deeply
involved in crafting the Middle East policy
that critics say contributed to the rise of

Islamic State extremists.

That dual dynamic
played out Saturday night
during
the
second
Democratic presidential
debate, which began with
a moment of silence and
30 minutes of questioning focused exclusively
Hillary Clinton on the attacks and unrest
in the Middle East.
Clinton cast herself as a strong leader in a
scary world, attributing the chaos in the
Middle East not to U.S. policy failures but a
decades-long arc of instability, from North
Africa to Afghanistan. Yet she also grappled with tough criticism of her approach to
more than a decade of unrest across the
region.

After Paris, Obama may step up military action

By Robert Burns
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON The Paris terrorist attacks seem likely to compel President Barack Obama to
consider military escalation
against the Islamic State in Iraq
and Syria. But that probably will
not mean dramatic moves like
launching a U.S. or international
ground offensive or accelerating
aerial bombing in hopes of eliminating the global threat of violent
extremism.
You arent going to bomb ISIS
back to the Stone Age, Anthony
Cordesman, a longtime Middle
East analyst, said Saturday.
Cordesman and other American
defense analysts said Obama may
deepen U.S. involvement incrementally by, for example, embedding U.S. military advisers closer
to the front lines of battle with
Iraqi forces and with anti-IS fighters in Syria. But that and similar

moves to intensify U. S. support for local

forces is unlikely to produce
quick results.
A
s
Cordesman sees
it, years of tragterrorist
Barack Obama ic
attacks
like
Paris are almost inevitable, and
there are no near-term solutions.
Stephen Biddle, a George
Washington University professor
of international affairs, said the
Paris attack may create a political
imperative to do more militarily
against IS, but he thinks it would
be a mistake to launch a U.S.
ground war.
To defeat ISIL decisively would
require hundreds of thousands of
Western ground troops, but
nobody thinks the ISIL threat warrants that scale of commitment,
and in fact it doesnt, Biddle said.

At the core of the U.S. strategy

in Iraq is a belief that unless local
forces are empowered to retake and
secure their own territory, any
military gains the U.S. could make
by leading the charge would be
short-lived. In Syria, Obama had
been unwilling to get more
involved in a civil war, although
he recently agreed to send a few
dozen special operations forces.
One new wrinkle since Fridays
attacks in Paris is the prospect of
France asking its NATO allies to
come to its aid, invoking the 28
members treaty obligation to
consider an armed attack on one
member as an attack against them
all. That has happened only once
in NATOs 66-year history: in the
aftermath of the 9/11 attacks
against the U.S.
James Stavridis, the retired
Navy admiral who served as
NATOs top commander in Europe
from 2009 to 2013, said NATO
should play a military role now.

Amid student protests, some

see erosion of free speech
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO A recent

groundswell of protests on college campuses over race, sexual misconduct and other
social issues has some civil libertarians
worried that the prized principle of free
speech could be sacrificed in the rush to
address legitimate student grievances.
The potential conflict between the protection of civil rights and the constitutions
First Amendment guarantees was on display
at the University of Missouri in Columbia
last week when students, supported by the
football team, forced the resignation of
system president Tim Wolfe over racial
incidents and other problems on campus
that they felt he had failed to take seriously.
While their campaign drew widespread support and inspired similar demonstrations at
colleges across the country, it also prompted a backlash from critics who said some

actions went too far.

A Missouri assistant professor supportive of the student protests blocked a student
photographer from an area where demonstrators had set up a tent city, a move which
infringed freedom of the press. The student
protesters quickly reversed the media ban,
saying the incident had been a teachable
moment for them.
Also, university police encouraged students to report any hateful and/or hurtful
speech they experienced for investigation,
leaving the impression that any comment
considered offensive could be a crime. Free
speech advocates complained and police
clarified that offensive language alone
would not be treated as a hate crime.
While the First Amendment guarantees
freedom of assembly and the right of citizens to state their grievances, it also
enshrines freedom of the press and free
speech.

NATOs actions need to be

deliberate, meaningful and at a
significant scale, Stavridis said
by email, adding that consultations among the allies should
begin shortly.
Stavridis, who is dean of the
Fletcher School of Law and
Diplomacy at Tufts University,
said NATO special forces could be
called on in Iraq and Syria as aircraft spotters and as trainers of
anti-IS fighters. They also could
gather intelligence and conduct
raids, he said. The alliance should
welcome nonmember participants, including Russia, he said.
Soft power and playing the
long game matter in the Middle
East, but there is a time for the
ruthless application of hard
power, Stavridis said. This is
that time, and NATO should
respond militarily against the
Islamic State with vigor.
Obama began U.S. bombing in
Iraq and Syria, along with the

deployment of military advisers

to Iraq, more than a year ago. And
although thousands of IS fighters
have been killed, the U. S. -led
coalition campaign has had only
limited successes.
Overall the extremists remain in
control of about a third of Iraq and
Syria. IS continues to impose its
unforgiving brand of radical Islam
and carrying out atrocities against
minority groups, including sexual
enslavement of women.
Richard Fontaine, president of
the Center for a New American
Security, a Washington think
tank, said the Obama administration almost certainly will consider new ways to accelerate its military campaign.
Fontaine said Obama might opt
for two changes in Iraq: embedding
U.S. military advisers in Iraqi army
units closer to the front lines, and
deploying forward air controllers
on the battlefield to improve the
effectiveness of U.S. airstrikes.

France bombs Islamic State HQ

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

PARIS France launched massive air strikes on the Islamic

State groups de-facto capital in
Syria Sunday night, destroying a
jihadi training camp and a munitions dump in the city of Raqqa,
where Iraqi intelligence officials
say the attacks on Paris were
planned.
Twelve aircraft including 10
fighter jets dropped a total of 20
bombs in the biggest air strikes
since France extended its bombing campaign against the extremist group to Syria in September, a
Defense Ministry statement said.
The jets launched from sites in
Jordan and the Persian Gulf, in
coordination with U.S. forces.
Meanwhile,
as
police

announced seven arrests and hunted for more members of the sleeper cell that carried out the Paris
attacks that killed 129 people,
French officials revealed to the
Associated Press that several key
suspects had been stopped and
released by police after the attack.
The arrest warrant for Salah
Abdeslam, a 26-year-old born in
Brussels, calls him very dangerous and warns people not to intervene if they see him.
Yet police already had him in
their grasp early Saturday, when
they stopped a car carrying three
men near the Belgian border. By
then, hours had passed since
authorities identified Abdeslam as
the renter of a Volkswagen Polo
that carried hostage takers to the
Paris theater where so many died.

Three French police officials

and a top French security official
confirmed that officers let
Abdeslam go after checking his
ID. They spoke on condition of
anonymity, lacking authorization
to publicly disclose such details.
Tantalizing clues about the
extent of the plot have emerged
from Baghdad, where senior Iraqi
officials told the AP that France
and other countries had been
warned on Thursday of an imminent attack.
An Iraqi intelligence dispatch
warned that Islamic State group
leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi had
ordered his followers to immediately launch gun and bomb attacks
and take hostages inside the countries of the coalition fighting
them in Iraq and Syria.

Iraq warned of attacks before Paris assault

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BAGHDAD Senior Iraqi intelligence officials warned members

of the U.S.-led coalition fighting
the Islamic State group of imminent assaults by the militant
organization just one day before
last weeks deadly attacks in Paris
killed 129 people.
Iraqi intelligence sent a dispatch
saying the groups leader, Abu
Bakr al-Baghdadi, had ordered an
attack on coalition countries
fighting against them in Iraq and
Syria, as well as on Iran and
Russia, through bombings or
other attacks in the days ahead.
The dispatch said the Iraqis had

no specific details on when or

where the attack would take place,
and a senior French security official said that French intelligence
gets this kind of communication
all the time and every day.
Without commenting specifically on the Iraqi warning, a senior
U.S. intelligence official said he
was not aware of any threat information sent to Western governments that was specific enough to
have thwarted the Paris attacks.
Officials from the U.S., French
and other Western governments
have expressed worries for months
about Islamic State-inspired
attacks by militants who fought in
Syria, the official noted. In recent

weeks, the sense of danger had

spiked.
Six senior Iraqi officials confirmed the information in the dispatch and four of these intelligence officials said they also
warned France specifically of a
potential attack. Two officials told
the AP that France was warned
beforehand of details that French
authorities have yet to make public.
Among the other warnings cited
by Iraqi officials: that the Paris
attacks appear to have been
planned in Raqqa, Syria the
Islamic States de-facto capital
where the attackers were trained
specifically for this operation.

The Iraqi dispatch, which was

obtained by the AP, provided no
details on when or where the
attack would take place, and a senior French security official told
the AP that French intelligence
gets these kinds of warnings all
the time and every day.
However, Iraqi intelligence officials told the AP that they also
warned France about specific
details: Among them, that the
attackers were trained for this
operation and sent back to France
from Raqqa, the Islamic States defacto capital.
The officials also said that a
sleeper cell in France then met
with the attackers after their training and helped them to execute the
plan. There were 24 people
involved in the operation, they

said: 19 attackers and five others

in charge of logistics and planning.
None of these details have been
corroborated by officials of
France or other Western intelligence agencies.
All these French and Iraqi security and intelligence officials spoke
with the AP on condition of
anonymity, citing the ongoing
investigation.
Abdeslam is one of three brothers believed to be involved; One
who crossed with him into
Belgium was later arrested, and
another blew himself up inside the
Bataclan theater after taking the
audience hostage and firing on
them repeatedly. It was the worst
of Fridays synchronized attacks,
leaving 89 fatalities.

World leaders vow vigorous

response after Paris terror
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ANTALYA, Turkey World

leaders vowed a vigorous response
to the Islamic State groups terror
spree in Paris as they opened a
two-day meeting in Turkey on
Sunday, with President Barack
Obama calling the violence an
attack on the civilized world and
Russian President Vladimir Putin
urging global efforts to confront the threat.
But beyond the tough talk and
calls for action, there was little
indication of how leaders intended
to escalate the assault on the
extremist group. The attacks in the

heart of Europe
combined
with
earlier
incidents
in
Lebanon
and
Turkey, as well
as the downing
of a Russian airliner in Egypt
Vladimir Putin suggest the
Islamic State is
reaching beyond its base in Iraq
and Syria, an expansion the West
has feared.
The skies have been darkened
by the horrific attacks that took
place in Paris just a day and a half
ago, Obama said.

Guest perspective

All-mail ballot a model for state

By Kevin Mullin

Now that the historic San Mateo

County all-mailed-ballot election is
in the rear view mirror, I want to share
my thoughts on the benets of this
pilot program. When I introduced
Assembly Bill 2028, I thought it was
important to gather data on votingby-mail from a highly urbanized and
diverse population; San Mateo
County was the perfect choice, especially with the track record of innovation by our Elections Ofce under the
leadership of previous registrar,
Warren Slocum, and current registrar,
Mark Church.
Some have raised questions about
the need for and benets of an allmailed-ballot election. The reasons
are simple. In recent years, the percentage of California voters who
voted by mail has increased dramatically, particularly in special elections. In some cases, there have been
special elections where more than 80
percent of voters cast mail-in ballots.
Research also indicates that when
special elections are conducted by
mail, turnout levels increase by close
to 8 percentage points in California.
There is also the potential to save

money because universal polling

places under mailballot elections
typically cost much
less than a traditional precinct
polling place election.
The raw data
more than 105,000 ballots tabulated
versus an average of roughly 85,000
over the last four local, off-year elections show we have reversed a
long-term trend of declining turnout.
When you factor in the taxpayer savings, the benets of an all-mailedballot election are signicant. I
believe the nal results and overall
data collected in San Mateo County,
along with observations from existing models in Colorado and Oregon
will show the benets of moving to
all-mail elections statewide.
AB 2028 provides San Mateo
County with an additional opportunity to conduct another all-mailed-ballot election in 2017 and I believe the
lessons learned will make it even
more successful. I intend to continue
my efforts to engage and empower
voters at every opportunity. When

another law I authored (AB 477) takes

effect, California will be able to minimize the number of ballots that are
rejected, making more ballots eligible to be counted since election ofcials will have up to eight days after
an election to collect signatures on
unsigned ballots.
This year marks the 50th anniversary of the Voting Rights Act. While
other states are suppressing the vote,
California is modernizing access to
voting, and creating innovative ways
to encourage civic participation and
strengthen our democracy. Exercising
your right to vote is at the very core
of this democracy, and I will continue
to work hard to make sure that every
vote counts and the process is fair and
transparent for everyone. Id like to
extend my thanks to all who made
this effort a success, not the least of
which is you, the voters.
Assembly man Kev in Mullin, D-South
San Francisco, is speak er pro tempore
of the California Assembly and represents the 22nd Assembly District that
includes cities in northern and central

Invisible seniors and the

Editor,
If you live within the Peninsula
Health Care District, you probably
received the organizations fall 2015
newsletter in the mail recently. The
rst page of the newsletter is about
The Future of Wellness for Older
Adults, and talks about the impending increase in the demand for health

elders no longer able to stay in their
homes, the article discusses the deleterious effects of displacement on
older adults and their families.
No agency in San Mateo County,
let alone the Peninsula Health Care
District, is tracking the vast numbers
of seniors who are being displaced
from their homes because they are
renters and cannot afford the drastic
increases in rents. In fact, the

to build a high-end assisted living

SurveyMonkey
comes to
Bay Meadows

ometime in 2017, SurveyMonkey, the worlds

largest online survey company, will be the rst
major corporate tenant at Bay Meadows. The site is
directly across from the Caltrain Hillsdale station.
SurveyMonkey chose Bay Meadows because they wanted
to be part of an urban campus, close to transportation and
a communitys restaurants and stores.
Presently situated in a chic ofce building in downtown
Palo Alto at the corner of Lytton Avenue and Alma Street,
they have all of the above
but are fast outgrowing
their space. They bring in
food twice a week for their
employees but there is no
cafeteria on site. They also
dont bus in their staff, a
majority who take public
transportation or bike to
work. They expect the percentage of transit riders to
increase in their new San
Mateo digs.
***
How did they get the
name SurveyMonkey? In
1999, a young intern in
Madison, Wisconsin
looked for a survey tool online but couldnt nd one, so
Ryan Finley decided to design his own. He wanted a distinctive name, one that would imply curiosity. Curiosity
and monkeys seemed to go together (Curious George of
course) and voila, SurveyMonkey was born. From a classic startup, the company has evolved into ofces in Palo
Alto (headquarters), Portland, Seattle, London, Dublin and
Australia.
As I was leaving the Palo Alto ofce, I was asked if I had
looked at the ceiling. I had not. Too busy looking at the
video and admiring the modern furniture and clean look of
the place and the fact that people have to sign in on a
tablet where your photo is taken (top security). The ceiling is a sculptured wood with graphs etched into the surface which display the companys growth. The last entry
in 2014 shows 23 million users.
Users include individuals, startups to Fortune 500 rms.
Initial service is free but there is a fee as it gets more complex. There are no ads and, for now, the company is not
publicly traded. If you check its website, there are surveys
galore from evaluations of doctor visits, hospital care,
events, restaurants, products, etc. It seems both public
and private organizations need to survey their employees
and customers. And the days of phone surveys may be
numbered now that so many people are ending their land
lines in favor of cellphones and so many numbers are
unlisted. SurveyMonkey is under contract with NBC to do
polling for the Republican nomination for president.
They were the rst to forecast Trumps initial rise.
***
When the corporate headquarters moves to San Mateo,
SurveyMonkey will bring about 700 employees, maybe
more. About half of them are women. Most hires are engineers but there are also others in marketing, public relations, etc. A state-of-the-art ofce building awaiting them
at Bay Meadows is a perfect match for this 21st-century
company.
***
Election post mortems: No surprise in the San Mateo
City Council race except that Diane Papan raised the most
money and led the vote count. No surprise sister Gina
Papan won re-election in Millbrae despite a nasty and
expensive campaign against her. The people who did this
will be sorry. Shocker that Rosanne Foust, longtime
Redwood City councilwoman and community leader, lost
her bid for re-election. She is also CEO of SAMCEDA, the
county economic development organization. Maybe
opponents of the explosive growth in Redwood City put
the blame on her and supported others. Still, her defeat is
a loss for the city and the region. In Millbrae, as expected, challenger Ann Schneider prevailed and beat an incumbent.
In future election news, it will be quite a contest when
Susan Manheimer, San Mateo police chief, goes for county sheriff now that Greg Munks is retiring. The undersheriff, Carlos Bolanos has already declared.
Bolanos is well liked in South County but Manheimer is
everywhere. She also led the California Police Chiefs
Association, smoked cigars with Arnold when he was governor and has done a great job in San Mateo. She has fans
throughout the county including most of the countys political establishment. Even Michael Stogner, who is usually
against everyone, seems favorable to her candidacy.

Market drop likely following Paris

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SHORT-TERM DECLINES

NEW YORK The value of

stocks, crude oil and the European
currency will likely fall this week
as investors worry about what the
Paris terror attacks will do to consumer confidence and key parts of
the global economy.
The public nature of the targets
cafes, a stadium and a concert
hall could make travelers hesitant about visiting Paris or other
major cities. A decline in tourism
in Europe could weaken the euro,
while oil prices could fall on fears
that demand will drop. The attacks
also could hurt major airlines in
the U.S., Europe and Asia.
Friday nights suicide-bombing
attacks, which left 129 people
dead and more than 350 injured,
come as investors are already
nervous about slowing economic
growth in China and the future of
the eurozone.

Many analysts believe any economic impact will be short.

As horrific as these events are and this is truly awful - economic
activity does tend to be pretty
resilient, said Howard Archer, an
IHS Global Insight analyst in the
United Kingdom. At the end of
the day, people have to get on
with their lives.
Sam Stovall, U.S. equity strategist for S&P Capital IQ, said the
U.S. stock market will likely fall
about 2 percent Monday, with
larger declines in Europe. But he
said its not something thats
going to throw the European economy into recession. Based on the
reactions to similar attacks in the
past, Stovall expects stocks to
begin recovering after about a
week.
Shane Oliver, chief economist
at AMP Capital, said the U.S. market took just over a month to

recover from the Sept. 11, 2001,

attacks, while the U.K. market
rebounded in one day after the
2005 London bombings.

EFFECTS ON TRAVEL
AND CRUDE OIL
Because the attacks arent near
oil fields, production isnt likely
to be affected. But demand for
gasoline and jet fuel could fall as
people cut back on travel. That
means oil prices could fall further,
even as they already were
approaching last summers sixyear lows of below $40 per barrel.
France is among the top tourist
destinations in the world, so airline revenue and stocks could be
hit. But people might switch trips
to the U.S., which could partially
offset Europe declines.
Oil supplies and prices could be
affected if NATO allies go to war
against the Islamic State in Iraq
and Syria and if ISIS interrupts the

flow of oil with attacks on Saudi

or Iraqi oil production or shipping
in the Suez Canal.
But Tom Kloza, global head of
energy analysis for the Oil Price
Information Service, said ISIS so
far has not threatened oil fields or
supplies. Unless that changes, oil
prices should stay low for at least
the next few months because there
is an oversupply worldwide.

BROADER ECONOMY
Before the attacks, investors
already were nervous about economic slowdowns in China and
Europe. In addition, there were jitters in the U.S. even though its
economy appears stronger than
the rest of the world. Last week,
U. S. stocks suffered their first
weekly decline after six straight
weeks of gains.
In China, mainland stock markets are typically affected by government policies rather than the

up a favorable early contrast with the carnival

barker insults of the
crowded Republican primary.
Since the Democrats
first debate a month ago,
Clinton has built a lead
in the early voting
Bernie Sanders states, gains that have
come amid other signs
the party is coalescing behind her. But the
nomination fight is far from over.
Saturday night, Clinton faced criticism of
her national security record, when Sanders
traced the current instability in the Middle
East to the U.S. Senates vote including
Clintons to authorize military action in
Iraq in 2002. He said that U.S. invasion
unraveled the region.
The former secretary of state fought back,
saying terrorism has been erupting for
decades, specifically mentioning the Sept.
11 attacks. She said the recent unrest in
Libya and other parts of the Middle East is
symptomatic of an arc of instability from
North Africa to Afghanistan.
She rejected the idea that she and the rest
of the Obama administration underestimated
the growing threat of the Islamic State.
The back-and-forth revealed a foreign policy split within the Democratic Party, with
Sanders playing to the anti-war activists
who boosted then-Illinois Sen. Barack
Obama to victory in 2008.
Sanders argued for a far more hands-off
approach, advocating for Muslim countries
to lead the fight and declaring that the war
against Islamic State militants is about the
soul of Islam.

possible rematch with CCSF.
The season is just now starting, Marshall said. That (loss)

have to go to their house and do
the same thing to them.
There were plenty of mistakes

for the Bulldogs to learn from in

Round 1. The Rams offense outworked CSM 495-359 in total
yards, but the difference was two
interceptions by Bulldogs quarterback Dru Brown and four dropped
passes by his receiver corps.
[Brown] did a good job, CSM
head coach Bret Pollack said. He
had some dropped balls, so it was
tough on him. We didnt give
him the best chance.
CCSF took full advantage, as
freshman quarterback Anthony

Gordon dazzled, even without his

favorite target, Serra grad Easop
Winston, who was hobbled by an
ankle injury. Gordon still completed 16-of-29 passes for 238
yards and a career-high six touchdown passes. Rams sophomore
running back Elijah Dale was also
a force, rushing 21 times for a
career-high 234 yards.

By Nathan Mollat

Halftime of a football game is

the point when coaching staffs
make their adjustments based on
what they saw in the first half.
There is a hope that things can be
better over the final two quarters.
San Mateo found itself in that
position Saturday during the 88th
annual Little Big Game against

visiting Burlingame. The Bearcats

trailed 28-0 at half, but hope
always springs eternal going into
the second half.
Until the Panthers smashed
those hopes.
Burlingame took the secondhalf kickoff 88 yards for a touchdown and the rest of the game was
spent simply trying to run out the
clock. San Mateo did manage a
touchdown in the fourth quarter
against Burlingames second-team

defense, but it was nowhere near

enough as the Panthers beat San
Mateo 35-6.
That (kickoff return) was
huge, Burlingame coach John
Philipopoulos said. The kicking
game is always a game changer.
Its nice to see the things you
work on in practice happen on
the field.

So, it was quite a scare for the
Gryphons in Saturdays postseason opener when, on the second
play of the match, junior middle
Mina Mafi rolled an ankle and
crumbled to the floor.
Despite being in obvious pain
when she returned to her feet, however, Mafi refused to leave the
game. Her gritty play was a rallying
point for the No. 5-seed Gryphons
(24-5), who soldiered through an
off-kilter performance to take down

Raiders cant stop Peterson, Vikings in second straight loss

By Josh Dubow
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

OAKLAND Derek Carr led

Oakland back from a slow start to go
ahead late in the first half. The lead
lasted just 13 seconds, and the
Raiders never fully recovered from
Cordarrelle Pattersons kick return
touchdown.
Patterson put Minnesota up for
good with his 93-yard return and
Adrian Peterson took it from there

by rushing for 203 yards and a

touchdown in his record-tying sixth
career 200-yard game as the Vikings
beat the Raiders 30-14 on Sunday.
It was certainly a momentum
breaker, Raiders coach Jack Del Rio
said. We had really captured the
momentum and were playing well at
that time so it was definitely a blow.
Oakland (4-5) still had its chances
in the second half but failed to score
against Minnesotas stout defense as
Derek Carr threw his second inter-

ception late in the game to send the

Raiders to their second straight loss.
We lost a game. Were not about
to go crazy, left tackle Donald Penn
said. Theres no panic at all, none of
that at all. Were positive and upbeat.
Were a little sad because we know we
left a lot out on the field today.
Teddy Bridgewater threw a touchdown pass, and the Vikings (7-2)
held the Raiders potent offense in
check. Minnesota has won five
straight games heading into next

weeks division showdown at home

with Green Bay (6-3).
Few outside the Vikings saw that
coming following a 20-3 seasonopening loss in San Francisco. But
with Peterson regaining his form
after sitting out almost all of last
year, a stout defense and big plays
on special teams, Minnesota is in
prime position.
It doesnt matter where we are
right now, Bridgewater said. The
only thing that matters is where we

finish the season at. So, we cant

just be satisfied with being where we
are today. We have to continue to
work hard, continue to just ride the
wave that we have now.
Minnesota squandered chances to
build a two-score lead when Blair
Walsh missed a 53-yard field goal at
the end of the first half to snap a
streak of 17 straight makes and then

striking distance at halftime. Gordon had
given the Rams some breathing room with
2:36 to go in the first half, hitting Thomas
Buntenbah for an 11-yard touchdown to put
CCSF up 21-10.
But the Bulldogs answered right back, as
Brown bombed two consecutive passes to
produce a quick strike. Starting from the
CSM 25-yard line, Brown hit Miles Willis
with a 38-yard pass to move into Rams territory. Then Brown aired it out to freshman
Chikwado Nzerem for a 37-yard scoring
pass to close the lead to 21-17.
The Rams dominated the third quarter
though, especially defensively. While
Gordon gave CCSF a three-possession lead
with a pair of touchdown passes in the third
quarter, the Rams defense allowed just one
first down. And even with CSM starting its
final possession of the quarter at the CCSF
6-yard line thanks to a 93-yard kickoff
return by Marshall the Bulldogs could
not find the end zone.
Instead, the Rams turned in a gritty goalline stand, capped by a stop on fourth-andgoal from the 1-yard line by Pacifica native
Nick Pierotti, as the sophomore linebacker
out of Terra Nova stopped Browns inside
bootleg attempt for no gain.
Going into the second half they made
some adjustments and shut us down,
Pollack said.
Come the fourth quarter, Marshall refused
to back down. On the Rams ensuing possession, the CSM defense held them to a
three-and-out. Then Marshall took a punt
return bursting 57 yards for a touchdown, to
close the score to 35-24.

CCSF got wise, though, and didnt allow
Marshall to return another punt, with the
last three by the Rams going out of bounds.
The one possession on which they didnt
punt, Gordon absorbed the rush to throw a
perfect spiral on a fly pattern to Buntenbah
for a 70-yard touchdown to seal the victory.

My dad played there 20 years ago. CSM
showed me a lot of love, but in my mind,

Gordon is embracing the CCSF swagger
as well. Amid a 7-7 tie in the second quarter,
he hit Antoine Porter with a 19-yard touchdown pass to take the lead for good. And
Gordon punctuated the scoring strike by
taunting the Bulldogs, glaring towards the
CSM sideline while fist pumping repeatedly
as he jogged to the end zone to celebrate.
Thats kind of what City College is
about, Gordon said. A lot of people dont
like our playing style, but thats why guys
come to play at City.

pumps are this season though as he finished
fourth in the state with 2,937 passing yards
on the regular season.

Big day for local runners at CCS championships

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT

There will be a large contingent of San Mateo County runners

at the CIF State Cross Country Championships following a
banner day at the Central Coast Section championships at the
2.95-mile Crystal Cross Country Course Saturday.
The Crystal Springs Uplands boys and girls teams were two
of the biggest stories, as both won CCS Division 5 team titles
via tiebreakers. The Aragon girls made history by finishing
second in the Division 3 race, becoming the first girls cross
country team in school history to advance to the state meet. The
Half Moon Bay boys team will also be making the trip to
Fresno after winning the Division 4 team title.
The Crystal Springs girls team finished in a tie with
Woodside Priory, with the tiebreaker being the best finish
from the teams sixth runner. Sophie Lawrences 21st-place
finish with a time of 21:56.30 proved to be the deciding
time. Woodside Priorys sixth-best runner finished in 36th
place with a time of 23:11.3.
Despite losing out on the CCS title, Woodside Priory still
qualified for state as a team. Priorys Hana Marsheck won the
Division 5 race, finishing in a time of 19:00.2.
Crystal Springs freshman Ella Rehman had the highest finish
for the Gryphons, taking third with a time of 19:44.6. EV Nora
(21:11.10) finished 13th, Kenia French (21:15.7) was 14th,
Ayato Shigahira (21:44.4) was 19th and Chloe LeBlanc

Four county teams advance to semifinals

The semifinals are set for the Central Coast Section boys and
girls water polo tournaments and there are four county teams
still alive: the Menlo-Atherton boys in Division 1, Sacred
Heart Prep and Menlo School boys in Division 2, and the
Sacred Heart Prep girls, also in Division 2.
M-A (16-10) took out No. 5 Leland 8-4 Saturday. The Bears
took a 3-1 lead after the first period and extended their lead to 73 after three periods. Mostyn Fero paced the Bears offense,
scoring three times. Jack Beasley, Nik Caryotakis, Alex
Hakanson, Spencer Gran and Jorge Pont all contributed one
goal apiece. M-A goaltender Noah Smith made eight saves.
M-A now gets top-seeded Bellarmine (22-5) in the semifinals in the Bells home pool, no less at 5:30 p.m.
Tuesday. Bellarmine beat No. 8 Los Gatos 17-5 to advance
to the final four.
In Division 2, the top two seeds SHP and Menlo cruised
into the semifinals with dominating performances. The Gators
(20-7) jumped on No. 8 Aptos early, leading 10-0 at halftime on
their way to a 17-7 victory. Finn Banks led the SHP attack, finishing with three goals. Andrew Churukian, Luke Rohlen,
Corey Tanis and Walker Seymour all scored twice for the Gators.
JC Marco had a huge game in the cage for SHP, finishing with
16 saves in just two quarters or work.

(16:33.1), followed closely by teammate
Yumeto Sigihara (16:33.9), who finished

15:36.9. King Citys Roman Munoz took the championship with a time of 15:22.3.

a 12th place finish for the Cougars. Also scoring for Half Moon
Bay were Jared Mansukhani (16:41.3) in 23rd, Aidan Shimeld
(16:52.4) in 33rd and Patrick Jones (16:52.9) in 34th.
Individually, nine other county runners qualified for the
state meet three boys and six girls. The top five finishers not on qualifying teams make the cut.
On the boys side, Serras Jonathan Garcia finished 10th
in the Division 2, Aragons Ryan McAuliffe was second in
Division 3 and Robert Miranda of Menlo School finished
third in Division 4.
For the girls, Menlo-Athertons Annalisa Crowe finished

Stanfords playoff hopes spoiled

STANFORD Vernon Adams threw for
205 yards and two touchdowns and Oregon
used its quick-strike offense and a late stop on
a two-point conversion attempt to spoil No.
7 Stanfords playoff hopes with a 38-36 victory Saturday night.
In a game dominated by offenses that combined for more than 900 yards, it was a defensive stop on the two-point attempt with 10
seconds left that sealed the win for Oregon (73, 5-2 Pac-12) and kept the Ducks hopes for
a conference title alive.
After Kevin Hogan lost two fumbles on
snaps in the fourth quarter, Stanford (8-2, 71, No. 7 CFP) tied it on his 4-yard touchdown
pass to Greg Taboada with 10 seconds left.
Needing a two-point conversion to tie it,
Hogan tried to find tight end Austin Hooper
over the middle. But the Ducks stopped the

suffered a broken foot in the first half.
The Giants, who seemed to have New
Englands number, were poised to knock the
Patriots from the ranks of the unbeaten on
Josh Browns fourth field goal with 1:47
remaining. But you dont beat the Patriots
(9-0) with field goals.
After Brown made his franchise-record

27th field goal from 29 yards, Tom Brady

drove the Patriots 44 yards, converting a
fourth-and-10 on the series. He also got
lucky when Giants rookie safety Landon
Collins dropped an interception.
New York (5-5) has given the Patriots fits
under Tom Coughlin, including two Super
Bowl wins, and nearly pulled off another victory. A 5-yard pass to Odell Beckham Jr. on
New Yorks final drive was originally called a
touchdown, then reversed by a video review.

McGill early in the fourth to keep the score at

But after the Raiders went three-and-out following the second miss, Bridgewater hit
Stefon Diggs on a 37-yard pass that helped set
up a 34-yarder for Walsh that made it 23-14
with 3:50 to play.
Minnesota sealed the win when Terence
Newman intercepted Carr in the end zone with
2:03 left for his second pick of the game.
Peterson scored on an 80-yard run on the next

Peterson has four straight games with at

yards on the ground this season. Peterson also
tied O.J. Simpson with his sixth 200-yard
game.
You have to be sharp the whole game with
him, linebacker Malcolm Smith said.
Obviously, he made us pay. We just have to
be sharper, more detailed and just finish better. Obviously, thats been kind of our downfall.

The Vikings started fast, getting an 11-yard

The Raiders quickly erased that hole. Carr

GRYPHONS

keeping Crystal Springs in control of an
early back-and-forth battle.
Her intuition, you cant teach that, Spray
said. Shes just got it in her.
The Gryphons youth fed off the defensive
frenzy, and freshman Hannah Rennert quickly
gave Crystal Springs the lead for good. A 6foot middle hitter, Rennerts first match kill
gave the Gryphons a 6-5 lead in the opening
set. Crystal Springs would not trail again for
the remainder of the match.
While the Gryphons managed just nine
team kills in Game 1, Rennert totaled four of
them; her fourth forced set point. Then a St.
Francis service error closed it out, giving
Crystal Springs a 1-0 match lead.
Rennert went on to total a match-high nine
kills, as the Gryphons front row worked its
signature balanced attack out of a 6-2 offense.
Junior setter Sage Shimamoto had three kills
in the opening set, and was one of three
Crystal Springs players along with Mafi
and senior outside hitter Madison Clay to
record six match kills.
I think were able to distribute it that much
because our defense is so good, Rennert said.
They can always get it to the setter and they
can spread it around.
But where the Gryphons created an advantage was from the service line. In Game 1,
they totaled five aces, including two by setter
Lara Bautista. The freshman had a match-high
five aces, including a sharp serve to close out
a runaway win in Game 2.
Thats actually been one of our strengths,
is serving, Spray said. Anytime were struggling, thats been our saving grace. That
kept us in the first game for sure.
Crystal Springs jumped out to a 5-0 lead in
Game 2, capped by a kill by outside hitter
Devon Pollack. The Gryphons bettered their
lead to 14-5 when Shimamoto went Madi Bugg
on a St. Francis attack as the junior setter
recorded a rare block. Senior opposite
Stephanie Rhodes then forced set point with
one of her four match kills before Bautista put
it away with an ace.
In Game 3, the Gryphons took another early
lead. Mafi went on a three-point service run,
including two aces, to put Crystal Springs up
8-3. Then, after taking a 20-10 lead, St.
Francis went on its best run of the match; junior middle Laura Martinelli scored a roof, sen-

ior outside Tori Yamaoka

fired an ace and Martinelli
notched a kill amid a sixpoint scoring run, closing
the lead to 20-16. But a St.
Francis service error gave
Crystal Springs a side out,
and the Gryphons cruised
to the win, capped by
Rennerts ninth match

With the win, Crystal

Shimamoto
Im super pumped,
Shimamoto said of Saturdays victory. We
have Salinas now, so Im a little nervous.
They crushed us, but hopefully this year we
have a little bit of a faster offense.
There are some key differences between
last years Crystal Springs squad and this
one. For starters, after finishing in third
place last season, the Gryphons improved in
2015 by capturing the West Bay Athletic
League Skyline Division title. And even
though they graduated two key seniors last
year in outside hitter Allie Lum and setter
Rose Gold, the addition of Rennert and
Bautista have allowed Crystal Springs to
reestablish its postseason-bound identity.
We lost a lot of players the year before and
we were like, what are we going to do?
Shimamoto said. But then we got two really
good freshmen. It was a blessing.

ended with a rain-shortened race at Phoenix
International Raceway.
The race was delayed nearly seven hours
by a series of storms, forcing the penultimate race in the Chase to start under the

More rain forced NASCAR to called it after
219 laps, with Harvick second behind winner Dale Earnhardt Jr., Busch fourth and
Truex 14th. They will join Jeff Gordon next

finishing order among the four drivers.
Carl Edwards finished 12th, leaving him
five points out of the final spot for the
Chase finale. Joey Logano, Kurt Busch and
Brad Keselowski also missed the finale.
Gordon had the only spot at Homestead
locked up before the race, thanks to his win
at Martinsville two weeks ago. That left
seven drivers fighting for three spots,
including three sets of teammates.
The long rain delay included numerous stops
and starts around pit road, with drivers repeatedly being forced back into the garage area.

and once he got past the initial
wave of San Mateo defenders, the
coast was clear and Ferrari took it to
the house.
It was the second touchdown the
Panthers scored on special teams.
Cooper Gindrauxs 71-yard punt
return midway through the first
quarter gave Burlingame its first
points of the game.
Burlingame is a really good
team, San Mateo coach Jeff
Scheller said. They played a great
game. We didnt execute.
San Mateo (5-5 overall) did some
good things early. The defense was
especially stout as that unit held
Burlingame to just 28 yards in the
first quarter.
Yet the Bearcats still trailed
going into the second quarter

Thats two more than the six automatic berths the three-tier league
receives. The five Bay Division
teams will play in three, eight-team
Open Division brackets, based on
enrollment. The three section winners of those Open divisions are all
eligible for Northern California
playoff spots, with the chance to
qualify for one of the 12 state-championship games.
Hillsdale is the lone PAL representative in the Division 4 bracket,
which is comprised of mostly B
league champions. The three
remaining Ocean Division teams,

along with Capuchino, will play in

the Division 5 playoffs, which is
comprised of B and C league
squads.
Menlo-Atherton (6-4) earned the
No. 4 seed in the Division 1 Open
bracket and will host No. 5 San
Benito (6-4) at 7 p.m. Friday night.
The other four Bay teams qualified
for the Division 3 Open playoffs.
Burlingame (9-1), which earned the
No. 4 seed, is the only other Bay
Division team to host a first-round
playoff game. The Panthers will face
a big challenge when No. 5 Riordan
(7-3) travels to Burlingame for a 7

p.m. kickoff Friday.

Sacred Heart Prep (7-3), which
won the Open Division last season,
received the No. 6 seed this season
and will travel to No. 3 Live OakMorgan Hill for a 7 p.m. Friday
kickoff. Terra Nova (5-5), the

because of an inability to track

down Gindraux on that punt return.
In the second quarter, Burlingame
finally got its offense in gear. But
the Panthers main cog, running
back Laipeli Palu, was not
involved. Palu finished the game
with just three carries for eight
yards.
Palu wasnt doing too much,
Scheller said. We were saying well
let someone else beat us.
Instead, it was Sean Saunders and
Joevani Garcia who gouged the
Bearcats on the perimeters. Using
mostly fly sweeps, Saunders rushed
for a team-high 68 yards and a
touchdown on six carries and Garcia
added 41 more on eight carries.
Burlingame quarterback Cameron
Kelaita, after misfiring on his first
five passes, completed his final two
a pair of 22-yard scoring passes
to Gindraux.
In all, Burlingame had three second-quarter possessions. The
Panthers scored on all three.
We just werent in a good rhythm
(early), Philipopoulos said,
adding he went to what they call
their turbo offense, one in which

they just pick up the pace without

going to a full-blown no-huddle
offense.
We picked up the pace and got in
a good rhythm and I think it wore
[San Mateo] down a little,
Philipopoulos said.
Burlingame finished the game
with 190 yards rushing from eight
different runners.
Saunders, who moved into the
starting lineup after an injury to
Ben Williams two weeks ago, gave
Burlingame a 14-0 lead halfway
through the second quarter, capping
a 12-play, 84-yard drive with a
touchdown run of 7 yards.
He
ran
really
well,
Philipopoulos said. All season
long weve said we have depth at
the running back position and we
showed it today.
After forcing San Mateo to punt
on its next possession, the
Panthers went to work again.
Starting from the San Mateo 45, the
Panthers needed just two plays to
find the end zone. Garcia ripped off
an 18-yard run on the first play and
following an offside against the
Bearcats, Kelaita hooked up with

Gindraux, who ran a crossing route

before turning the corner along the
right sideline and beating the
defender to the pylon.
Following Burlingames kickoff,
Panthers
linebacker
Charles
Stephenson sacked San Mateo quarterback Dallas Droz. The ball
popped loose and Stephenson
pounced on it at the San Mateo 10yard line.
A holding penalty backed the
Panthers up to the 22, but Kelaita
found Gindraux again, this time on
a post pattern, and the two hooked
up for another 22-yard scoring
strike to give Burlingame a 28-0
lead at halftime.
After Ferraris kickoff return to
start
the
second
half,
Philipopoulos used his second team
offense and defense.
Thats when San Mateo did the
bulk of its damage. Running back
Josh Fakava, who missed a large
portion of the game after being
staggered on a hit in the first quarter, returned in the fourth and finished with a game-high 76 yards on
11 carries. Anderson Perdomo, who
also missed a couple of series after

banging up his knee, also returned

and accounted for San Mateos lone
touchdown a 4-yard run.
Droz also had a decent performance. Droz was making the first varsity start of career, filling in for an
injured Austin Salvail. Droz connected on 6 of 9 passes for 62 yards.
Joseph Baker was the main target,
catching five passes for 59 yards.
For Philiopopoulos, he could not
have asked for a better Saturday. Not
only did Burlingame beat its rival,
Philipopoulos got to rest his
starters, as well as get the backups
some significant playing time.
Scheller, meanwhile, believes
better days are ahead for the
Bearcats. A number of key players
from this years team return for the
2016 season and it will be bolstered
by a frosh-soph team that went 8-1
this season losing their only
game 10-9 against Burlingame.
If we measure ourselves just by
Burlingame, it looks like were a
long ways away, Scheller said.
But we have some good things
coming down the line.

Spectre stays on top with $35.4M

NEW YORK The box-office

duo of James Bond and Charlie

Jolie Pitts By the Sea made
barely a ripple.
Sonys Spectre, the 24th
Bond installment and last weeks
top film, took in $35.4 million
in its second weekend, according
to studio estimates Sunday.
Daniel Craigs fourth Bond film

global haul has come from. It got
a boost, too, over the weekend in

China, where it debuted with $48

said.
The Peanuts Movie, from
20th Century Fox, remained in
second place with $24.2 million.
Both it and Spectre held

The Peanuts Movie has grossed
$82.5 million thus far.
Of the new releases, the
Christmas comedy Love the

2010 disaster, which trapped 33
miners underground, riveted the
world for 69 days, moviegoers
showed little interest in a dramatized version of the event starring Antonio Banderas and Lou
Diamond Phillips.
Universal Pictures considerably scaled back the release of
the poorly reviewed By the
Sea, a marital drama starring
Jolie Pitt and Brad Pitt. Playing
in just 10 theaters, it made only
$95,440.
The third film directed by Jolie

approve policy regulating development in the 116-acre site near
the intersection of Millbrae
Avenue and El Camino Real.
Regardless of whether the policy is ultimately approved,
demographer Tom Williams said
the district should expect natural
enrollment growth will push the
student population beyond the
capacity of the districts five
schools.
Williams recommended the
board also look to consider hiking the fees charged to developers
which are designed to offset the
cost the district incurs when new
homes are built, as student population typically increases as a
result of the new families who
move to the district.
School officials agreed though
even increased developers fees
would likely be insufficient to
account for the cost of needing to
construct school buildings needed to house new students, and
other steps should be considered
to accommodate enrollment
growth.
Though no formal development

proposals have been submitted to

the city for construction at the
transit center, two parties have
expressed initial interest in building projects which would construct 400, 000 square feet of
office space, about 79,000 square
feet of retail space and more than
800 residential units.
Vincent Muzzi, owner of a
property at 150 Serra Ave., has
proposed to build 267,000 square
feet of office space, 32,000 feet
of retail space and 500 residential
units.
BART has hired Republic Urban
Developers to construct a development that would include
164, 000 square feet of office
space, nearly 47,000 square feet
for retail, more than 300 residential units and a hotel on a plot of
land east of the train station currently occupied by a parking
garage
Should the BART project move
head, Williams said he expects
the school districts enrollment
would jump by about 50 students
over the five-year period which
would be required for the project
to be approved and constructed.
There were 2, 445 students
enrolled in
the Millbrae
Elementary School District last
year, according to a district
report.

The larger concern for school

officials though, Williams added,
is the general population of
Millbrae is aging. That means
homes will likely be going onto
the market in coming years and
new families with children will
probably be most interested in
purchasing them, resulting in an
expected enrollment bump for the
district, he said.
Board Trustee Jay Price said he
too expects the student population to increase gradually, and
officials should begin preparing
for the growth, regardless of
whether the rail station developments come to fruition.
There will be natural growth,
he said. We will still maximize
our growth without the development.
School and city officials present at the meeting agreed the two
agencies should work together
throughout the project planning
process, to ensure there are clear
lines of communication regarding how the rail area station
developments may have an
impact on the Millbrae community.
We would like to work alongside the city as they do general
planning, said Superintendent
Vahn Phayprasert. This is a great
beginning discussion.

The ban is proposed to apply to
all buildings in which living units

Futrell said though the council
had some concerns regarding
whether the ordinance should be
enforced in buildings where units
are attached, but do not share a similar ventilation system, as the
smoke from one room would be less
likely to be circulated throughout
the complex.
Officials will spend the interim
period before the ordinance is officially proposed addressing such
issues, said Futrell.
He said his staff will work to
answer questions such as is there a
way to not overreach and ban
smoking when its not necessary?
Though there are concerns about
infringing on the rights of private

would go on to serve in President Wilsons
Cabinet. Finklers information was used to
select an army training site, Camp Fremont

The contest winner was Wilbur Doxsee,
who said he thought he remembered an article in the San Francisco Chronicle that
mentioned a weather survey by the German
government.
The current issue of the new magazine

Over 41,000 people who do not

secondhand smoke each year,
according to a city report, and
7,000 of those people die from
lung cancer.
South San Francisco has already
implemented a ban on smoking in
public places downtown, as well as
on city-owned property and parks.
The proposed ban would apply to
the use of electronic devices such as
vaporizers in apartments or multiunit residences as well.
Similar to other municipalities
which have implemented smoking
bans, Futrell said the ordinance
would be enforced through a complaint-based system, which would
require those bothered by a smoking neighbor to call the authorities.
Though he said exact enforcement details are yet to determined,
it is possible the city pursues
implementing an escalating series
of fines issued to offenders.
Representatives from local apartment owner advocacy groups have
requested there be a one year leadup
to the ordinance being enforced,
should it be passed by council, said
Futrell. The interim period between
passing the ban and enforcing it
would allow residents who are
smokers to find another place to
live, if necessary, said Futrell.

can find no evidence that he tried to correct

an attorney and file a court action, he
said.
He said he expects the concrete work
to cost nearly $26,000, and the rest
will be spent to fix the damage done to
his home.
District spokesman Ryan Sebers
though claimed home owners who
allegedly incur damage to their property from school construction should
direct their concerns to USS Cal
Builders, the company hired to perform the building.
Per the construction contract with
the current contractor for Measure J
projects, any and all construction
claims fall under the liability of the
construction company, and any claim
can be submitted directly to them,
said Sebers.
Rudy Sultan, a project manager with
USS Cal Builders, said he is aware of
Walds claim and expects his concerns
will be addressed through the construction companys insurance policy
process.
If the damage is done by the construction, they will be compensated,
he said.
Sultan said claims investigators will
likely visit Walds property to examine the validity of the allegations that
the damage done was a product of the
construction at the school.
He said he is familiar with the claim
though and is uncertain the construction work is to blame for the cracks
that formed in Walds home.
Looking at the picture, the cracks
in the driveway seem to be old, Sultan
said.
Wald said he is not alone in his frustration, and others living near the
school at El Campo Drive and Del
Monte Avenue have also expressed

our bottom line, but more importantly

outdoor dining makes for a great customer experience. Not to mention the
outdoor area is the best kind of marketing, customers find us as they walk
into town, Stewart Putney with
Timber & Salt wrote in an email.
The restaurant opened last month on
Middlefield Road.
Nearby Donato Enoteca also has an
expansive outdoor dining area on
Middlefield Road.
The city is doing well to help make
businesses and restaurants successful,
said owner Donato Scotti.
More chairs outside will be great for

all businesses, he said.

It will attract people to come to
Redwood City and sit outside. Its a
positive for the city, Scotti said.
Downtown has become a premier
spot to spend an evening, he said.
Councilman Ian Bain said amending
the ordinance would be good for business.
Weve seen a lot of success allowing it on Broadway and would like to
give other restaurants the ability to do
this as well, Bain wrote in an email.
The council unanimously voted to
amend the ordinance on its consent
calendar Monday night.

interest in also taking legal action.

Other neighbors have considered
filing claims, he said. There are
members of the community who are
extremely not happy with this whole
process.
USS Cal Builders has received four
claims from neighbors living near
Buri Buri who wish to be compensated
for damage done to their property, said
Sultan, and the nature of the requests
range from cracks in home siding to a
nail found in a car tire.
For his part, Wald said his frustrations started last year when workers
began building on the elementary
school campus, and his concerns were
compounded after heavy machinery
used to compact earth displaced by the
construction of new buildings began
to make an impact on his quality of
life.
He said the compaction work was so
jarring the plates and dishes on his
shelves would rattle loudly.
This was significant shaking, not
just slight vibrations, he said.
Amidst the compaction work, Wald
claims he began noticing cracks forming in the siding of the addition to his
home, as well as in the street separating his property from the school.
Another neighbor told Wald that one
of their water pipes failed, he said,
which they also attributed to the heavy
construction at the campus.
Wald said he filed a claim last month
with school officials requesting the
district pay him for cost of the work
that needs to be done to fix his home,
but that effort was denied.
Left without another course of action
to pursue recouping the damage he
feels was caused by the districts construction work, Wald said he is forced
to consider filing a lawsuit.
The threat of a legal action is a
potential latest blemish on the troubled track record of the Measure J
bond, which the district used to finance
the construction at Buri Buri and other

campuses throughout the district.

Earlier this year, an independent
auditor found the district had overspent
the $162 million bond fund to the tune
of $11 million, forcing the district
Board of Trustees to transfer money
from the general fund to backfill the
void.
In response to the complaints of residents living near Buri Buri
Elementary School this summer, district officials instructed workers to
cover a massive dirt mound formed during construction on the campus which
was blowing dirt and grime throughout
the neighborhood.
More recently, the Citizens Bond
Oversight Committee, charged with
analyzing the use of bond money,
questioned whether there are sufficient
funds in district coffers to finish the
projects promised under the bond when
it was passed by voters in 2010.
Wald said he has been frustrated both
by the way school officials have managed the bond fund, and alleged they
were insufficiently transparent in
response to his claims and concerns.
They are not very forthcoming with
information, he said.
Sultan said the district would do well
to be more proactive in communicating with residents who live near the
school, to quell some of the concerns
they have regarding the construction
process.
The district has to reach out more to
the community at Buri Buri to bridge
this gap, Sultan said. The residents
are left in the dark, so they are getting
this response.
Wald he said he believes it is the
responsibility of the school officials
to be accountable for the alleged harm
done by the construction work done on
district property.
The damage is done, Im not going
to incur any more loss, he said. But
you are the school district, you should
make me whole.

it comes to making verbal promises, dont offer
something you cannot deliver. Love is on the rise.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) Youll have some
interesting dreams that you can make a reality if you
present and promote what you want to do. Dont hold
back; you have everything to gain and nothing to lose.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Temptation is best ignored.
You would be wise to take on a physical challenge
that will use up your energy and keep you out of
trouble. The less said, the better.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) If you share your
concerns, you will be given the chance to make

a beneficial change. Honesty and practicality are

your strengths.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) Dont let anyone
confuse you. If you want something, figure out the
best way to get it. Discipline and hard work will be
your ticket to success.
