State AG: Docktown not legal

State Lands Commission to discuss Docktown at next meeting
By Bill Silverfarb
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

The state Attorney Generals Office

has opined that the residential houseboat community in Redwood City
known as Docktown is essentially
illegal.
The State Lands Commission
waived attorney-client privilege
when it released a legal opinion by
the state Attorney Generals Office
last week that indicated the floating
community is a violation of the public trust.
The AGs legal opinion also states
that Docktown is a violation of
Redwood Citys own granting statute

Private occupancy of such boats for residential

purposes confers a purely local benefit. It does not
provide a benefit to citizens of California statewide.

turned control of Redwood Creek and
the marina over to the city.
Private occupancy of such boats
for residential purposes confers a

Deputy

The public trust dictates that certain waterways be open to all of the
public for recreational or other purposes.
Meanwhile, the city has extended
the deadline for the public to review
the environmental impact report and

Jan. 26 to March 4.

WASHINGTON Eyeing the end of

their belief in the promise of change

San Jose hospital needs

$126 million for completion
SAN JOSE Santa Clara County is

KNTV-TV reports that an assessment
report by Boldt Company shows it
could take about $126 million and
another year of work to complete the

The report cites numerous factors
that could affect the construction
timetable and actual opening of the
facility, but estimated it could be operational around February or April of
2017.
In August, NBC Bay Area reported
that the 370,000-square-foot facility

Council denies sunlight appeal

Police reports

Project to replace two apartments with nine in downtown San Carlos

Theyre on the case

By Bill Silverfarb
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

The San Carlos City Council denied an

appeal by a neighbor of a proposed nineunit mixed development on Walnut Street
who claimed the building would block out
the sun to her apartment.
The council voted unanimously Monday
night on a 4-0 vote, with Councilman Matt
Grocott absent, to deny the appeal of a
Planning Commission decision Nov. 2 to
approve the request for design review for a
project at 545 Walnut St.
The project site consists of one parcel
measuring 7,533 square feet in area, currently developed with two units, according to a
planning staff report.
The appeal was made by Vinessa Nevala,
who lives next door at a 30-unit complex at
551 Walnut St.
She argued that the four-story project will
wipe out her blue sky views.
The overall proposal is 17,704 square feet
with 12 underground parking spaces and a
975-square-feet commercial space and two
one-bedroom units on the first floor. The
second floor contains a mezzanine for the
commercial space and two residential units,
one with one bedroom and one with two bedrooms. The third floor contains three twobedroom units and the fourth floor contains
one three-bedroom unit and one two-bed-

room unit, according to the report.
The Planning Commission reviewed the
project Sept. 21 and requested the applicants to work on increasing side elevation
setbacks on the third and fourth stories,
according to the staff report.
The applicants returned to the commission Nov. 2 with a modified plan that
increased building setbacks on not only the
third and fourth floors but also on the second story, according to the report.
But two residents, including Nevala, said
the new plans would still affect their views.
Nevala filed an appeal of the commissions decision Nov. 12.
She argued that the project would have a
severely negative impact on the health,
well-being and quality of life for 12 of the
30 units at 551 Walnut St.
She said it was inhumane to deprive the
residents of the 12 units of all sunlight and
blue sky from their only windows.
But Councilman Bob Grassilli said our
code doesnt necessarily allow for sunlight
or views.
J.D. Anagnostou, an investor in the 545
Walnut St. project said that the appellants

feel entitled to keep what they have always

had, according to a video of the council
meeting.
This development will make you proud,
he said to the council.
In her appeal, Nevala also argued that the
new housing units at 545 Walnut are
beyond huge and are an extreme size.
She said Monday night that the proposed
units are large enough to shrink, according to a video of the City Council meeting.
She said some of the units could be filled
with up to 10 young tech workers. The
largest apartment proposed in the project is
for 2,225 square feet.
Nevala said too that the project would create social problems, causing community
disruption and require more policing and
social services.
City staff noted that argument was based
on conjecture.
Nevala also sought a variance for the new
project to take away the requirements for
windows in the common corridors with the
building next door.
Councilman Mark Olbert then made a
motion to deny her appeal with the condition the windows be removed from the common corridors.
The project is about a block away from
downtown and the Wheeler Plaza project
which will consist of 109 condominiums
for sale.

Lottery players go to great lengths for Powerball tickets

By Scott McFetridge and Ken Ritter
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NIPTON Lottery ticket buyers have to

suspend their belief in math to drop $2 on
an infinitesimal chance to win the
Powerball jackpot, but in Nevada, they also
have to drive across the desert and wait in
lines that can stretch for hours.
In Hawaii and Alaska, they need to cross
an ocean or mountains to reach a lottery
kiosk.
As if the 1 in 292.2 million odds of winning werent inconvenient enough, people
who live in the six states that dont participate in Powerball must put in considerable
extra effort to get a ticket.
With the giant jackpot on his mind,
retiree William Burke drove 45 minutes
Monday from his home in Henderson,
Nevada, to buy tickets in Nipton,

California. Then he waited three hours to

spend $20 on 10 tickets at a store that is
among the nations busiest lottery retailers.
I thought maybe Id be part of history,
said Burke, a Vietnam veteran who joined
hundreds of people bundled in coats and
scarfs before the doors opened at the Primm
Valley Lotto Store off Interstate 15.
None of the six states has a lottery of any
kind.
Religious beliefs have posed a barrier in
Alabama, Mississippi and Utah. Alaska has
been more concerned that a lottery wouldnt
pay off in such a sparsely populated state. In
Hawaii, lawmakers have proposed lottery
measures, but the idea always fails. And in
Nevada, the
lottery snub
is largely a
nod to the
states casinos, which

have no interest in the competition.

The Multi-State Lottery Association,
which runs Powerball, reports that some of
the biggest ticket sales come from border
cities. That means residents of one state are
driving to another to play Powerball, then
probably spending a bit more on gas, soda
or doughnuts.
What that means for policymakers,
thats their business, said Gary Grief, executive director of the Texas Lottery. Im sure
theyre watching those dollars flow out of
their state.
In Alabama, people have been talking
about instituting a lottery for years, in part
because of sales in border states.

By Lisa Lerer and Ken Thomas

AMES, Iowa Facing a narrowing

Vermont

For days, Clinton
Bernie Sanders
has cast Sanders as a
less forceful advocate for gun control,
honing in on a 2005 vote he cast that
gave immunity to gun manufacturers.
On Tuesday, she broadened her critique,
arguing that if Sanders wouldnt combat the National Rifle Association, he
cant be trusted to take on other special
interests.
If youre going to go around saying
you stand up to special interests then
stand up to that most powerful special

time in its efforts to crack down on sex
trafficking during the Super Bowl, the
FBI will try to reach out to women and
girls selling sex in the run-up to the
game to give them a way out and get
them to turn against their traffickers.
The softer, victim-centric approach
will rely on local nonprofit groups to
make initial contact with the women

provide them access to its victims
advocates and other services, FBI officials told the Associated Press.
The goal is to reach anyone who is

to show for it.
The fresh critique marks an effort by
Clinton to undermine the central argument of Sanders campaign that the
Vermont senator is an outsider offering
liberals a political revolution. At
one point, she alluded to his mantra,
telling supporters, If thats the kind of
revolution hes talking about, Im
worried, folks.

With a touch of sarcasm, Clinton

said President Barack Obamas work to
pass an overhaul to the nations health
care system was a major accomplishment and derided Sanders plans for a

FBI tries new approach in Super Bowl sex trafficking fight

ages the San Francisco offices antitrafficking efforts, which will also
include sting operations the agency
has used before previous Super Bowls.
This years event in the San
Francisco Bay Area, like past bowls
and other large sporting events, is
expected to be a magnet for trafficking
in part because many thousands of men
will pour into the region, according to
experts.
Victims advocates and local law
enforcement officials say the FBIs
efforts are laudable, and may help
ensure the women and girls dont
return to their pimps. But they warn
that victims are often too fearful to
help prosecute their traffickers.
And they say efforts such as those by
the FBI need to be handled with great

care and patience, and need to be sustained.

A lot of times they dont see themselves as victims, said Jennifer
Madden, a local prosecutor who has
worked with trafficked girls. They
dont fully grasp how theyve come
into this, how they are being exploited, and they may not be amenable to
services.
Their attachment to their pimps
should not be underestimated, Madden
and other experts say.
You cant be tone deaf to that trauma
and say, Why arent you talking, why
wont you tell me your life story?

Bradley Myles, CEO of Polaris, a nonprofit that runs a national hotline for
trafficking victims.

State NAACP endorses proposed
marijuana legalization measure
SACRAMENTO The California State NAACP has
endorsed a proposed ballot initiative that would legalize the
recreational use of marijuana for adults 21 and over.
Members of the state branch of the civil rights organization backed the Adult Use of Marijuana Act during a weekend
leadership retreat.
President Alice Huffman says legalizing marijuana is an
important civil rights issue because pot-related arrests are
racially biased and disproportionately affect blacks and
Latinos.
Backers of the recreational use measure are counting on
support from minority voters to get the initiative passed in
November.
The state NAACP also endorsed a marijuana legalization
measure that failed in California in 2010, a move that made
Huffman the target of criticism from some church leaders.

State gas prices unpredictable

California drivers are once again paying
for the most expensive gas in the nation and
will continue to experience price swings in
the near future, due to statewide refinery
issues, according to the latest AAA Fuel
Gauge Report.
Pump prices are up 17 cents with the average price of unleaded regular at $2.85 per gallon as of Tuesday, according to AAA, which
provides the report as a consumer service.
The average price for a gallon of gas in San
Mateo is $2.77, up 5 cents from last month.
The least expensive fuel can be found in
Marysville, where the average price for a gallon of regular is $2.44. The highest price is
in San Francisco, where the average price is
$2.826 a gallon, up $0.06 from the last AAA
gas survey.
California continues to weather ongoing
refinery issues and remains the most expensive state for gasoline, said Cynthia Harris,
AAA Northern California spokeswoman.
California ranks third in the nation in refining capacity and refineries in the state typically operate at higher-than-average levels

for sentencing on March 4, prosecutors said.

Masseur pleads no
contest to sexual battery
An East Palo Alto man who operated a massage business out of a shed in his backyard
for up to 30 years pleaded
no contest to sexual battery charges on Monday,
according to San Mateo
County prosecutors.
Bernardino Valle, 67,
was arrested in 2014 after
a woman walked out of a
massage when he grabbed
her breasts and tried to

reach into her genital
Valle
area.
The woman told her daughter, who encouraged her to call police.
Valle had been operating the business out
of a shed outside his home on the 2200 block
of Brentwood Court in East Palo Alto. He
claimed his massages could treat anything
from minor aches and pains to fertility problems, according to police.
After his arrest, reports about the case were
widely distributed on Spanish-speaking
news stations and 21 additional victims
came forward, prosecutors said. Ten of the
women who came forward had cases that were
still in the statute of limitations.
He was initially charged with more than 20
counts of sexual penetration, sexual battery
and other charges. On Monday, he pleaded no
contest to five counts of sexual battery and
two counts of sexual penetration, according
to the district attorneys office.
Valle is expected to be sentenced to up to

Elections Office offers e-filing

for campaign disclosure forms
A Web-based electronic filing and reporting system for campaign finance disclosure
forms was announced by Mark Church, chief
elections officer and Warren Slocum, president of the San Mateo County Board of
Supervisors.
The county has partnered with NetFile, an
industry leader in paperless e-filing systems,
to implement the new program. Candidates
and committees may begin electronically filing their campaign disclosure forms immediately, according to Churchs office.
State law requires candidates and those supporting or opposing ballot measures to create a campaign committee and file campaign
finance disclosure forms with the county and
state. Assembly Bill 2452, which went into
effect January 1, 2013, provides local jurisdictions with the option to eliminate the
paper filing requirement for campaign statements and replace it with an electronic filing
system.
With the implementation of an electronic
filing system, committees will have the
option to file their required campaign disclosure forms online. Once submitted, these
documents will be immediately posted, in
redacted form,
on
NetFile
Inc.,
netfile.com/Filer, which can also be
accessed on the Registration and Elections
Division website shapethefuture.org for public viewing.

Limo driver convicted of child

porn possession misses sentencing
A 44-year-old Millbrae resident who pleaded no contest for possessing child pornography in October failed to appear in court
Tuesday for sentencing, according to the San
Mateo County District Attorneys Office.
Nidal Shureih was out on custody on
$125,000 bail bond but Judge Leland Davis
issued a $200,000 bench warrant for his
arrest Tuesday for failing to appear in court.
He is due to be sentenced to two years in

state prison.
Shureih, who owns a
limousine company, contacted a 14-year-old New
Jersey girl using Kik
Messenger,
which
allows
complete
strangers to randomly
connect and chat with
Nidal Shureih each other.
During several hours of
chatting with the girl, Shureih pressured her
to send him several pictures of her in various
stages of undress and she did so, according to
prosecutors.
When the girl found out how old he was,
she attempted to break contact but he threatened to publish the photos of her online,
according to prosecutors.
She then told her family who contacted
local police, according to prosecutors.
A search warrant of his phone revealed
numerous images of child pornography plus
pictures of sexually explicit contacts with
young teenagers, according to prosecutors.

More break-ins in

Iraq attacks shatter relative

calm after Islamic State losses
By Susannah George
and Sinan Salaheddin
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BAGHDAD Deadly attacks in Baghdad

and a nearby town have shattered the relative calm far from the front lines of the war
against the Islamic State group, raising
concerns Tuesday that the extremists may
focus once again on attacking civilians
after a string of battlefield losses.
In recent months, Iraqi and Kurdish forces
backed by U.S.-led airstrikes have forced IS
out of Sinjar in the north and the provincial
capital of Ramadi west of Baghdad.
But the extremist group has proved
resilient after previous defeats, often seizing territory on other frontiers of its amoeba-like caliphate. In the days after IS fighters were driven out of Ramadi, the group
launched a coordinated assault on the western town of Haditha which was repulsed by
Iraqi forces.
On Monday, the Sunni extremist group
went after softer targets in Baghdad and the
town of Muqdadiyah to the northeast, with
attacks that appeared to be aimed at killing
Shiite civilians and aggravating sectarian

California regulators
reject Volkswagen recall plan
LOS ANGELES California regulators on
Tuesday rejected Volkswagens recall plan for
some of the German automakers most popular diesel models that used software to intentionally deceive government emissions tests,
including the Beetle, Jetta, Golf and Passat.
The rejection doesnt rule out an eventual
recall plan for owners of the 75,688 affected
2.0-liter diesel cars in California.
But it does prolong the limbo for drivers
who bought the diesels under the false impression that they were getting a cleaner engine
along with a more powerful car and better
mileage and who have been waiting for a path
forward since the scandal unfolded last
September.
The action also leaves the possibility of a
buyback for VW owners.
The California Air Resources Board said
Volkswagens plan was unacceptable for a
variety of reasons, including that it did not
adequately identify the affected vehicles; did
not include a sufficient method for obtaining the car owners names and addresses; and
did not include adequate information on how
the fix would affect future emissions results.

tensions -- a strategy pursued with horrifying results by the groups predecessor, alQaida in Iraq.
Gunmen targeted the entrance to the
Jawhara mall in a mainly Shiite neighborhood of Baghdad late Monday with a car
bomb and a suicide bomber before storming
in and opening fire. They killed 18 people
and wounded more than 50 before Iraqi
forces landed on the roof and battled their
way inside, killing two attackers and arresting another four. A separate car bomb elsewhere in the city killed five people and
wounded 12.
Later that night, back-to-back suicide
attacks on a cafe frequented by governmentallied Shiite militiamen killed at least 24
people and wounded 52 in the Shiite-dominated mixed town of Muqdadiyah, about 60
miles (90 kilometers) northeast of Baghdad.
The Islamic State group on Tuesday claimed
both major attacks.
Angry Shiite mobs responded to the
Muqdadiyah bombings by attacking several
Sunni mosques, completely destroying two
of them and killing an imam, said Sheikh

Immigrant raids divide Obama

from Democrats and Clinton
By Erica Werner
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Federal immigration

raids have wrenched open new divides
between President Barack Obama and his
Democratic allies, including the woman
who hopes to replace him, Hillary Clinton.
On Tuesday, with the president due to
arrive on Capitol Hill within hours to deliver his final State of the Union Address,
House Democrats gathered at a press conference to denounce his policies and release a
letter signed by nearly 150 lawmakers calling for deportation raids to stop.
Its just unacceptable, said Democratic
Rep. Luis Gutierrez of Illinois. Ive been

99.9 percent with this president of the

United States but in this particular case,
when his administration sows the seeds of
terror throughout the immigrant community
of the United States and millions of people
are affected, thats what Im going to concern myself with.
That came after Clinton broke with Obama
on the issue at a forum in Iowa Monday
night, also calling for the raids to end. I do
not think the raids are an appropriate tool to
enforce the immigration laws. In fact, I
think they are divisive, they are sowing discord and fear, she said. Fellow Democratic
hopefuls Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont
and former Gov. Martin OMalley of
Maryland have adopted similar stances.

Whatd ya say?

Offer of $3M for ice rink closure not enough

ince 2013, the city of San

Mateo has had a shuttered ice
rink at the Bridgepointe
Shopping Center. The closure has
made a group of supporters plenty
mad and the City Council with the
prospect of deciding if an offer of $3
million by the property owner to
change the site to retail use is sufcient.
In short, its not.
And heres why. The shopping center owners want to amend the sites
1998 master plan that enabled it to be
constructed and also retained the rink
on site. By offering a $3 million payment that would be used for recreation
somewhere else in the city, the property owner is suggesting that there is
a monetary value attached to the
requirement that a rink be operated
there. However, the language of the
agreement states that an ice rink, or
another recreational facility be on
site. That latter language was placed
in there in case the owner could not
nd a willing and able ice rink operator. This has not been the case here.
There was a willing and able ice rink
operator and the property owner, SPI
Holdings, made the decision to not
renew the lease and shut down the ice
rink.
Why that decision was made is not
known, however, it has meant SPI has
been in violation of the master plan
agreement since that happened in
mid-2013.
While the language of the agree-

Editorial
ment does mean that the city cannot
force it to reopen the rink, it does
mean the city can require an alternative recreational facility at the site.
However, there has been no discussion of what that could be. Rather,
SPI has adhered to its offer of $3 million to amend the master plan and
convert the site to retail. Retail, it
maintains, is a better use, and if the
city refuses its offer then it would
consider an alternative recreational
use that would have to be approved by
the Planning Commission.
The issue is, and has been, the language of the development agreement.
The spirit of it is that a rink should be
maintained at the site, but if a suitable
operator cannot be found, an alternative recreational facility could be considered. The letter of it is subject to
interpretation and SPI has proved it
has no interest in the site as an ice
rink. And thats too bad because
everyone should know that the spirit
of the language is really what matters.
The development was allowed only if
the ice rink was part of it, and it
appears that is to be no more.
The issue could make its way to
court, but that would be costly for all
sides and the chances of forcing the
reopening the rink are still low.
The council must now decide if $3
million for use in other areas of the

city is sufcient. Considering that the

83-acre Bay Meadows Phase II redevelopment was required to have a 15acre park as an amenity when it was
approved, the city has weighed the
impact of development and made sure
to include a public benet in recent
times. This is simply the cost of
doing business. If a property owner
wants to make money by developing
a large area, there is to be a public
benet. This has been made clear with
many recent large-scale developments
in the city. And the public benet of
the Bridgepointe Shopping Center
when it was developed from the former Fashion Island was the ice rink.
The property owner is in its right to
explore a maximization of its land
value, however, the city is in its right
to maximize the public benet as outlined in the development agreement.
Thats what cities are supposed to do.
In an ideal world, the property
owner would realize shutting down the
rink was not the best course, and see
about reopening it. The property
owner, however, does not appear to
navigate in the ideal world. The city
did have the use of the ice rink for
many years, and in this world must
weigh what the future value of that
rink might be. Is it $3 million? No. It
is more.
It appears the meeting for this issue
will be in March and the council
should reject this offer just as the
Planning Commission did in
December.

Letters to the editor

of res, but we can still purchase guns
despite the much larger threat to
human lives.

Money really
doesnt buy happiness

Right to bear
arms or guns?

Editor,
When one reads articles in the
Daily Journal about the litigation
involving Martins beach, it
becomesclear that the property
owner is rich. He is called wealthy, a
mogul and often a billionaire. The
owner is castigated for being wealthy.
He is chastised for not giving part of
his land to the public.
Then a judge decided that the owner
should lose a part of his land because
he failed to ask permission from a
governmental agency to close a gate
on his property. Does anyone wonder
what would happen to the litigation if
the owner of the property was an elderly, pious artichoke farmer, and she
was widowed and had lost a leg in a
farming accident? How would that resonate when comparing equities
between the parties? No one should
lose their property because they
wanted to close a gate.

Editor,
To all you gun enthusiasts, I want
to make it clear what the Second
Amendment right actually entails. It
gives U.S. citizens the right to bear
arms, not the right to bear guns.
Arms means armaments, and
includes every weapon used to wage
war. The Second Amendment was written during a time in history when
there was a constant threat from
imperialist countries who might try
to overthrow the United States. In
keeping with this, the Americans
needed access to every weapon necessary to defend themselves. Now lets
be clear. If you believe you have the
right to bear arms, then you are stating that you have the right to
artillery, tanks, ghter jets, explosives, RPGs and so on.
Do you believe these weapons are
appropriate because this is what our
right to bear arms entails? Almost
every city in the Bay Area does not
allow us to buy reworks for the
Fourth of July anymore due to the risk

want to reach your mind. Where is it currently

located? Ashleigh Brilliant.
Have you ever thought about how difcult it is to communicate with other people I mean really communicate
so you understand each other and feel some kind of intellectual or emotional connection? Have you ever considered how the inability or unwillingness to communicate
well affects interpersonal, social and national and international diplomacy?
This came to mind while watching the Republican
debates. Have you ever seen a more egocentric, even narcissistic bunch? With the attitude of dogged Republicans
and the controversial issues that arise, its obvious that
there is very little communication going on with presidential hopefuls or with
mindful viewers.
In spite of the fact that
we may have good hearing
and speak the same language, there are few of us
who can communicate with
others really well. On rare
occasions, we may meet
someone who we are with
briey and feel a kind of
instant rapport. But more
often, there are others who
we can be with all day, all
year or maybe even a lifetime with whom we never
feel that we have really
connected. Our relationship remains largely supercial.
Of course, we dont necessarily want to communicate on
a personal level with everyone. Sometimes even with
people we are around a lot (like coworkers or certain relatives) we have no desire or need to communicate in depth.
But being able to communicate well at least part of the
time with important others is necessary to a satisfying
and fullling life (and to political debates).
Whether we are giving someone directions to our house,
trying to explain a faux pas we made, or discussing our
views on tax cuts, there are many things that can get in
the way of understanding. The following are some barriers
to good communication that affect us all and will no doubt
be increasingly distracting politicians in 2016.
1). We often have preconceived ideas that get in the
way. For instance, You are a Democrat, so you couldnt
possibly know what you are talking about. Or, There is
only one way to think my way.
2). We may be coming from totally different perspectives. Many things, such as limited vocabulary or cultural
differences can cause us to misunderstand. The people we
communicate with best are those who are willing to at
least respect our point of view. You need to transform
yourself into language, based on your ability to hand
yourself over to others via your words. It doesnt need to
necessarily elegant or uent, but reect some of the person behind it. John Stewart, Bridges, Not Walls.
3). We may be preoccupied. Having our minds on other
things or thinking about what we want to say to counteract some point or being distracted by a mood or something that happened recently can keep us from connecting.
4). Some people have been playing a role for so long
that they are rarely truly themselves. If a persons language is weak, insipid, clich ridden and consistently ritualistic in social situations, this says much about the persons ability and willingness to relate both to himself and
others. Language not only reects his encapsulation, but
becomes one of his instruments of his self-imprisonment. Stewart.
5). We may have developed no empathy no ability to
put ourselves, even a little bit, in someone elses shoes.
We may have an attitude of superiority that causes us to
look down on others or to concentrate on one-upmanship.
Psychological aberrations such as narcissism in which
the person is interested only in impressing others or in
making herself look important apply here. Consider
Donald Trump who is so narcissistic, so determined to
have the upper hand that no one can connect with him.
This is not the kind of person who would make a good or
even adequate president. An extreme narcissist like him
would never garner any empathy to collaborate with other
politicians or national leaders.
If we are not able to communicate well with at least one
other person much of the time, we will very likely have
the feeling (conscious or unconscious) that something is
missing like we have never been really understood,
that we are all alone in an impersonal world, and that we
must keep our defenses always at the ready. For open, productive communication to occur we have to be able and
willing to open up and let other people in. Think of the
many political candidates whose minds are so sclerotic
that any kind of connection is impossible. This can do
nothing but jeopardize the future of our democracy.
I waited and waited, and when no message came, I
knew it must be from you. Ashleigh Brilliant.

Starbucks Corp., up $1.64 to $59.46
The coffee chain said its on track to have 3,400 locations in China by
2019, up from 2,000 now.

A volatile day on Wall Street ended

in upbeat fashion Tuesday as a lateafternoon rally led by technology
stocks pushed the market to a modest
gain.
The turnaround helped snap an eightday trading slump for the Nasdaq composite, which is heavily weighted with
technology stocks.
Energy stocks slumped as much as 2
percent during the day, then recovered
in late trading to eke out a slight
gain.
Crude oil prices declined for the seventh day in a row, the longest losing
streak since July 2014. Oil has now
fallen nearly 18 percent this year.
We saw a little bit of weakness in
oil and the selling just continued,
said J.J. Kinahan, chief strategist at
TD Ameritrade.
All told, the Dow Jones industrial
average gained 117.65 points, or 0.7
percent, to 16,516.22. The Standard &
Poors 500 index added 15.01 points,
or 0. 8 percent, to 1, 938. 68. The
Nasdaq composite climbed 47. 93
points, or 1 percent, to 4,685.92.
Investors have been wrestling with
fears about a protracted slowdown in
Chinas economy and the potential
fallout for corporate earnings.
Uncertainty about Beijings ability to
manage its financial markets has also

kept traders on edge after sharp losses

last week.
The steep downturn in crude oil
prices has also weighed on the market.
The three major U.S. stock indexes are
all down for the year, with the Dow and
S&P 500 index off about 5 percent,
while the Nasdaq is down 6.4 percent.
Trading looked to take a more positive turn early Tuesday as the major
U.S. stock indexes opened higher and
oil prices rose. That trend didnt last,
as oil prices turned lower once more,
weighing on energy stocks. The market looked like it was headed for a
lower close before it reversed course in
the final hour of trading.
Youre seeing very oversold conditions, said Phil Blancato, CEO of
Ladenburg
Thalmann
Asset
Management. People here are basically buying the dip.
Eight of the 10 sectors in the S&P
500 index rose. Technology companies gained 1.2 percent. Health care
and consumer discretionary stocks
also notched gains of 1 percent.
Utilities and telecommunications
services stocks fell.
Chipmaker Intel added 62 cents, or 2
percent, to $32.68, while and Apple
gained $1. 43, or 1. 5 percent, to
$99.96. Among health care companies, UnitedHealth Group climbed 2.4
percent, the biggest gainer in the Dow
Jones industrial average. It added
$2.68 to $112.26.
Energy stocks rose 0.4 percent. The

Oil keeps falling. And falling. How low can it go?

By David Koenig
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

DALLAS The price of oil keeps

falling. And falling. And falling. It has
to stop somewhere, right?
Even after trending down for a year
and a half, U.S. crude has fallen another 17 percent since the start of the year
and is now probing depths not seen
since 2003.
All you can do is forecast direction,
and the direction of price is still
down, says Larry Goldstein of the
Energy Policy Research Foundation,
who predicted a decline in oil in 2014.
On Tuesday the price fell another 3
percent to $30.51 a barrel in morning
trading, its lowest level in 12 years.
Oil had sold for roughly $100 a barrel

for nearly four years before beginning

to fall in the summer of 2014.
Many now say oil could drop into
the $20 range.
The price of crude is down because
global supplies are high at a time when
demand for it is not growing very fast.
The price decline, already more dramatic and long-lasting than most expected, deepened in recent days because
economic turmoil in China is expected
to cut demand for oil even further.
Lower crude prices are leading to
lower prices for gasoline, diesel, jet
fuel and heating oil, giving drivers,
shippers, and many businesses a big
break on fuel costs. The national average retail price of gasoline is $1.96 a
gallon.
On Tuesday the Energy Department
lowered its expectations for crude oil

and most fuels for this year and next.

The department now expects U.S. crude
to average $38.54 a barrel in 2016.
But layoffs across the oil industry
are mounting, and bankruptcies among
oil companies are expected to soar. BP
announced layoffs of 4,000 workers
on Tuesday. Fadel Gheit, an analyst at
Oppenheimer & Co, says as many as
half of the independent drilling companies working in U.S. shale fields
could go bankrupt before oil prices
stabilize.
A boom in U. S. oil production
thanks to new drilling technology
helped push global supplies higher in
recent years. Other major oil producers
and exporters in the Middle East and
elsewhere have declined to reduce their
own output in an attempt to push
prices back up.

sector remains down 8.5 percent this

year.
U.S. crude oil fell 97 cents, or 3.1
percent, to $30.44 a barrel in New
York. Brent crude, a benchmark for
international oils, fell 69 cents, or 2.2
percent, to $30.86 a barrel in London.
Traders continued to take their cue
from oil prices by parting with stocks
in energy and mining companies.
Freeport-McMoRan lost 20 cents, or
4.6 percent, to $4.11. Consol Energy
shed 30 cents, or 4. 3 percent, to
$6.70.
The trading in oil is particularly
precarious, and because of that, everybody is selling energy-related stocks,
Kinahan said. Nobody wants to be the
one holding the bag.
Investors also had their eye on company earnings season, which began
Monday and runs for the next several
weeks.
Alcoa sank 9 percent after the aluminum manufacturers earnings included revenue that fell short of Wall
Streets expectations. The stock
dropped 72 cents to $7.28.
GameStop tumbled 5.1 percent after
investors were disappointed with the
video game store operators holiday
season sales. The stock lost $1.50 to
$27.88.
Health insurers fared a bit better.
Traders bid up shares in Anthem,
which rose $7.24, or 5.6 percent, to
$135. 60, and Aetna, which added
$4.08, or 3.9 percent, to $109.15.

Business brief
Apple defies industry trend as PC sales fall again
SAN FRANCISCO Apple keeps defying a PC industry
trend: While other major computer-makers saw shipments
fall in 2015, Apple increased the number of Macs it shipped
worldwide last year, according to estimates from two
research firms on Tuesday.
Total PC shipments have been declining, industrywide,
for the last four years, as consumers are waiting longer to
buy new models and many are turning to smartphones or
tablets. Even last summers release of Windows 10
Microsofts new operating software failed to boost overall sales.
All told, manufacturers shipped a total of 288.7 million
PCs last year, down 8 percent from 2014, according to
researchers at Gartner. Analysts at International Data Corp.,
using different methodology, put the total at 276 million
and the decline at 10.4 percent.
Apple, however, saw an increase of roughly 6 percent,
according to both firms. While other major PC-makers have
seen ups and downs, Apple alone has enjoyed gains in each
of the last three years.

Raiders staying in Oakland for now

Owners approve Rams move; Chargers can join them and if not, Raiders can still make move
By Josh Dubow
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

OAKLAND Oakland was given another

shot to keep the Raiders.
The NFL approved a compromise measure
Tuesday that allows the St. Louis Rams to
move back to the Los Angeles area and gives
the San Diego Chargers the option to join
them in Inglewood.

Mark Davis

The Raiders had hoped

to move to Carson with
the Chargers, but were left
out of the high-stakes
game of musical chairs.
But the team could get the
chance to join the Rams at
their stadium in 2017 if
the Chargers remain in
San Diego.

This is not a win for the Raiders today,

owner Mark Davis said after the vote in
Houston.
But for now, the Raiders can negotiate with
Oakland on building a new stadium or look to
other cities such as San Antonio, or possibly
San Diego or St. Louis for a new home.
The Raiders lease at the Oakland Coliseum
expires next month, but they could reach a
short-term extension to stay until they find a

long-term solution. Davis said the world is a

possibility for the Raiders and a team-issued
statement did not mention Oakland.
Well see where the Raider Nation ends up
here, Davis said. Well be working really
hard to find us a home. Thats what were looking for, for our fans and everything else.
Dont feel bad. Well get it right.
Oakland officials were pleased by the news

Rams rain 3s to stun SSF San Mateo

By Terry Bernal
THE DAILY JOURNAL

Many have written off the dynastic

Westmoor girls basketball team.
Well, it would seem the Lady Rams are having none of that.
Despite having just two returning players
from last seasons Central Coast Section
Division II semifinal team, a new head coach
and no one on roster taller than 5-7, the Rams
sure looked like they plan on contending for
another Peninsula Athletic League North
Division title in Tuesdays thrilling 65-57
win at home over South City.
Westmoor (2-1 in PAL North, 4-6 overall)
trailed 50-46 with five minutes remaining in
regulation. But then everything went wildly
wrong for South City (2-1, 6-6).
In turn, the Rams rode a barrage of 3-pointers
to close out the game on a 19-7 run to get back
in the win column after a disheartening loss
last Friday to then Peninsula Athletic League
Ocean Division frontrunner Half Moon Bay.
The girls really wanted it, Westmoor head
coach Bruce Newbeck said. They didnt want
to fall to 1-2 (in Ocean play). They know they
can play better than they did against Half
Moon Bay, and they really showed it today.
Coupled with Oceanas 42-37 upset of Half
Moon Bay Tuesday, Westmoor moves into a
five-way logjam for first place in the Ocean
Division. This marks a quick reprieve after
the Rams shot just 15 of 42 in last Fridays
45-29 loss to the Cougars.
It was a far different story Tuesday, as
Westmoor converted 10 3-pointers in the
game, including three in just over one minutes
time midway through the fourth quarter.
Trailing by 4, the Rams got a blast from sophomore Daphney Fulgencios second trey of the
quarter to close South Citys lead to 50-49.
At the other end of the court, the Warriors
committed one of their 10 turnovers in the
quarter, setting up senior Kasey Liangs 3pointer to give Westmoor a 52-50 lead. South
City sophomore Valerie Avila seemed to
reclaim the momentum surge 45 seconds later
by burying her teams only 3-pointer of the

half, putting the Warriors back up 53-52.

What a turnaround it has been for San

Mateo girls' soccer.
Last season, the entire Lady Bearcats' program didn't win a game, with the varsity
girls going 0-14 and the junior-varsity
squad doing the same. This year is a different
story though. Behind first-year head coach
John Saucedo, the San Mateo varsity kickers have posted a 7-2 overall record.
And with Tuesday's 5-0 dismantling of
Westmoor (0-2 in PAL Ocean, 0-4 overall) at
Jane Powell Stadium, the Bearcats improved
to 2-0 in Peninsula Athletic League Ocean
Division play and are now sitting pretty
atop the league standings.
The bottom line is we played a good
passing game, Saucedo said. We move the
ball a lot ... and they have total freedom
shooting, all 11 of them. That includes the
goalie. That is the style I like to play.
At the outset of the practice season, with
just three seniors slated to return, Saucedo
a former Burlingame softball coach who
previously headed soccer teams at Palo Alto,
Immaculate Conception-SF, Caada College
and Skyline College set out to find any
and every soccer talent on campus. And he
left no stone unturned. The result was his
recruiting nine seniors who didnt play last
year. Add to the mix nine freshmen, most of
who are club players, and Saucedo now has a
contender on his hands.
"With me being so vocal, we had a lot of
club players come out who weren't playing,"
Saucedo said.
Freshman forward Jenna Vath has swiftly
proved a varsity force. Coming off her club
season with Juventus U15, Vath has started
every game for the Bearcats. Not bad considering she wasnt sure shed even make the

Terra Nova erupts for three second-half goals

By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

The Terra Nova girls soccer team has had

to share the Peninsula Athletic Leagues
Ocean Division title the last two seasons.
The Tigers are hoping this year they get
to celebrate a championship alone.
They are off to a good start to the 2016
Ocean Division campaign as the Tigers
stayed undefeated in league play following a
3-1 victory over host Mills Tuesday after-

noon.
CCS is the goal, said Terra Nova senior
striker Mikaeyla Miller, who scored twice.
This year is our year.
As long as the Tigers can avoid playing
on real grass as much as possible, that is. In
this day and age of synthetic turf fields that
feature predictable rolls of the ball and are
built for speed, Mills natural grass field
offers the Vikings a bit of a home-field
advantage.
We dont play on grass, said Terra Nova

coach Ernie Brockmeyer.

The Vikings field is also more narrow and
shorter than a regulation soccer field and the
Tigers had to make an adjustment to that as
well.
Perhaps the field conditions had something to do with the Tigers timing being
just a bit off. Miller appeared to be most
affected by it as she had several golden scoring chances go by the board in the first 40
minutes. Three times Miller received a
through ball and broke in on the Mills goal

with only the goalkeeper to beat.

Three times she came up empty.
I had a hard time, Miller said. I kept
slipping in the mud. Were used to (artificial) turf.
Said Brockmeyer: She has a couple of
those (missed scoring chances) every
game.
She was stopped each time by Mills goalkeeper Vera Kolton, who finished the game

Monte Irvin, a
baseball Hall of
Famer, dies at 96
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

HOUSTON Hall of Famer Monte Irvin, a power-hitting

outfielder who starred for the New York Giants in the 1950s
in a career abbreviated by major league baseballs exclusion
of black players, has died. He was 96.
The Hall of Fame said Irvin died Monday night of natural
causes at his Houston home.
Irvin was 30 when he joined the Giants in 1949, two years
after Jackie Robinson broke the color barrier. Irvin spent
seven of his eight big league seasons with the Giants and
one year with the Chicago Cubs in 1956. A native of
Haleburg, Alabama, Irvin played in the Negro, Mexican and
Puerto Rican leagues during his 20s.
Irvin batted .300 or more three times with a high of .329
in 1953. He finished with a career average of .293 with 99
homers and 443 RBIs, numbers that would have surely been
far higher if not for the games racial segregation.
Today is a sad, sad day for me, said Hall of Famer Willie
Mays, a teammate of Irvins with the Giants. I lost someone I cared about and admired very, very much; someone
who was like a second father to me. Monte was a kind of guy
that you had to be around to get to know. But once you
became friends, he always had your back. You had a friend
for life.

CBS to unveil new technology during Super Bowl 50

By Beth Harris

We tried it on a couple regular-season

games and it looks remarkable.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

PASADENA The Super Bowl is turning

50, although the game played next month
on Americas informal national holiday will
hardly be showing its age because of new
gadgetry CBS Sports is debuting.
A replay system will give viewers a 360degree perspective and higher resolution
than previously ever seen for the game.
Thirty-six cameras strung around the upper
deck of Levis Stadium in Santa Clara,
California, can freeze the moment and
revolve around the play before continuing
to show the scene. Viewers on Feb. 7 will be
able to check out the quarterbacks view
from the pocket to other players perspectives on the field, and it can be animated,
too.
We tried it on a couple regular-season
games and it looks remarkable, CBS Sports
Chairman Sean McManus said Tuesday at a
gathering of TV critics.
For the first time in a Super Bowl, CBS
will use eight custom-molded pylons that
house 16 cameras to film the goal lines and
sidelines of both teams. The cameras also
will have microphones embedded in them to
enhance the games natural sound. They were
used in the College Football Playoff championship Monday.
The new technology could even influence

Sean McManus, CBS Sports chairman

the game. The officials are able to use any

replays a network shows when they review a
play.
During the game, the network will use the
NFLs Next Gen stats that track how fast and
far players run over the course of the day and
matchup-based statistics between players.
CBS Sports is changing its logo for the
first time in 35 years and updating its on-air
graphics to debut during Super Bowl week.
Gayle King of CBS This Morning will
conduct a live interview with President
Barack Obama and his wife Michelle as part
of the coverage.
McManus said planning for the events
landmark anniversary began five days after
last years game ended. CBS will be airing
its 19th Super Bowl, the most of any network.
Were pumped up about it, he said. We
cant wait for Super Bowl Sunday.
During game week at 8 p.m. nightly, CBS
will air one-minute updates from either San
Francisco or Santa Clara.
On game day, the network will air seven
hours of programming using four sets: one

Francisco and three from the stadium in

Santa Clara (one outside near the tailgating
area, one on the field and the main hosts on
a concourse overlooking the field).
We know the appetite is insatiable when
it comes to football, pregame host James
Brown said.
The game has grown dramatically since
the first one Jan. 15, 1967, from the Los
Angeles Memorial Coliseum.
Back then, there was a scant 30 minutes of
pregame programming, one marching band
at halftime, 11 cameras, two production
trucks and Lassie aired directly afterward.
Besides this years massive pregame hype,
British band Coldplay and Beyonce will perform at halftime, there will be 70 game cameras, 12 production trucks and the coveted
post-game slot goes to The Late Show with
Stephen Colbert.
Jack Whitaker was part of the announcing
team for the first game, calling it this first
meeting ever between the American
Football League and National Football
League. The term Super Bowl had yet to be
popularized.
Its not like it is today, but we thought it

would be a very important game, said

Whitaker, who at 91 is the only surviving
member of the original four-man broadcast
team that included Ray Scott, Frank Gifford
and Pat Summerall.
CBS and NBC both carried the game, with
Scott calling the first half and Whitaker
handling the second. Whitaker recalled that
NBC got caught in commercial when the
second half began, so the teams re-did the
kickoff.
The atmosphere around the big game has
grown accordingly, too.
Phil Simms, who will call this years
game with Jim Nantz, remembered his first
Super Bowl as a quarterback at the Rose
Bowl in 1987.
One of my linemen was crying and
another was throwing up. That doesnt happen anymore, he said. Todays players are
so used to being on the stage, they cant
wait to get on the stage. Thats why we see
such exciting plays and such great
moments.
Meanwhile, the NFL is reviewing network
bids for the rights to Thursday night games
after the first two years aired on CBS.
McManus said the league sought proposals
for either an exclusive package or splitting
the eight weeks of games between networks.
I think we have the advantage because
the template is in place for CBS, he said. I
wouldnt call us the front runner.

"A lot of the seniors were really
intimidating," Vath said. "So, I wasn't sure I was going to make it on."
The 5-10 freshman has been a
superb addition. Having consistently played as a defender throughout
her club career, Vath never played
forward prior to this season. Now,
through two league matches, she
has totaled four goals and three
assists. That includes her scoring
the first two goals Tuesday, then
assisting with the third.
This season, Coach John has
been putting me at forward, Vath
said. Its new and there's a lot more
energy.
San Mateo opened with a strong
offensive, but had several good
chances rejected in the opening
minutes. Westmoor goalkeeper Kim
Herrera was on her toes to the tune of
five saves in the first half. Her
efforts allowed the aggressive
Bearcats to take just a 1-0 lead into
halftime.
Vath converted in the 16th
minute, breaking through the right
side on a pass from midfielder
Kristyn Waller, then sprinting 20
yards on the dribble to earn a 1-on-1
matchup with Herrera. As Vath
sprinted into the penalty box, she
pounded a shot at corner net that
Herrera was able to get a leg on, but
the ball careened into the side netting, giving San Mateo a 1-0 lead.

when Fulgencio responded by

drilling her fourth trey of the night
to give the Rams the lead for good.
Were on and off (with 3-pointers), but when we know we can shoot
it, well take all the shots we can,
Fulgencio said. When we keep making them, well keep taking them.
Shell-shocked South City never
recovered as the 3-pointer sparked
a 9-0 Westmoor run.
I feel we had all the momentum
when [Avila] hit that 3, South
City head coach Paul Carion said.
But [Westmoor] came right back
and hit one of their own, and I
think that kind of changed it.
Earlier in the game, it was the
Warriors who had been the comeback
kids. Westmoor stuck with its signature full-court press, though advancing through it didnt seem to be a
problem
for
South
City.
Unfortunately, getting into their
post-intensive half-court offense did.
We dont struggle breaking a
press, but what we struggle with is
attacking off of it, Carion said.
We need to make teams pay for
pressing us, and right now were
not capable of doing that.
Westmoor opened the game jumping out to a 9-1 lead. South City rallied to take the lead by the end of
the first quarter at 13-11 with a pair
of nice feeds into the paint, but the
Rams outscored the Warriors 17-11

TERRY BERNAL/DAILY JOURNAL

San Mateo freshman Jenna Vath scored two goals and an assist in the
Bearcats 5-0 win Tuesday at Westmoor.
Come the second half, however, it
didn't take San Mateo long to break
it open. Three goals from three different players in the opening minutes saw the Bearcats open a commanding 4-0 lead.
Vath added her second goal right
out of the gate. Converting on
another breakaway, she sprinted to
15 yards out and converted cleanly
to improve the lead to 2-0.
Just three minutes later, Vath
assisted on the game's third goal
after sending a back-pass to Maraya
Guzman, who took the ball at 35
yards out and didn't waste any time
showing off her leg strength.
Belying her 5-2 stature, Guzman
blazed a high shot the arced just
over the outstretched hands of the
leaping Herrera to give San Mateo a
3-0 lead.

"I wasn't expecting her to shoot

it, but she does a lot of amazing
things," Vath said.
Adriana Perez Murillo then
demonstrated a different kind of
strength on San Mateo's fourth
goal, dribbling cross field along the
perimeter of the penalty box.
Having to shoulder through two
defenders, she managed to plant her
back foot and pivot for a low-lining
shot that found the corner goal to
put the Bearcats up 4-0.
"I remember we won (against)
them last year because they needed a
little more pushing on the field,"
Herrera said. "This year they've put a
lot more body into it."
Orapin Senamuen added San
Mateos final goal on an assist from
Paulina Campo on the games final
possession.

in the second half, scoring twice

in the first 10 minutes.
Just a couple minutes into the
second half, Miller finally finished a scoring chance. From just
behind the midfield stripe, Sierra
Olsen sent a through ball that
Miller and a Mills defender chased.
The defender appeared to have a
play on the ball, but she fanned on
her clearing attempt and Miller
pounced, leaving the defender in
her dust and finally scoring past
Kolton for a 1-0 Terra Nova lead.
Five minutes later, the Tigers
doubled their lead. They earned a
free kick near the left sideline,
about 27 yards from the Mills
goal. Sophomore sweeper Tori
Jaques sent a cross into the Mills

penalty box. Freshman forward

Haley Dyer slipped inside her
defender, leaped and flicked the
ball into the back of the net with
her head to give the Tigers a 2-0
advantage.
Mills responded with a goal of
its own off a set piece about five
minutes later. Freshman center
defender Celeste Henry, from
about five yards behind the midfield stripe, sent a long pass
toward the left sideline, where she
found senior Maria Cazarez, who
quickly found junior Natalie
Laverne in the goal box.
It took her a couple attempts and
a few challenges from Terra Nova
defenders, but Laverne stayed with
the ball, finally found some space

to turn and rifled a quick shot just

inside the near post to cut the Terra
Nova lead in half.
The Tigers never stopped attacking, however, which was aided by
them simply wanting the ball
more. Terra Nova did not control
possession with a series of accurate, one-touch passing. Instead,
the Tigers did it with hard work and
determination. They pressured the
ball at every turn. They won most
of the 50-50 challenges and, when
they did win balls, they did an
excellent job of shielding the
Mills player away from it.
We believe if were first to the
ball, well be fine, Brockmeyer
said.
The Tigers continued to get

as much as 26-18 before taking a

28-24 lead into halftime.
Then in the second half, South
Citys post game woke up.
Sophomore center Jerlene Miller
scored zero points in the first half,
but getting consistent passes from
point guard Brittney Cedeno throughout the second half changed that.
Miller finished with a team-high 16,
including 10 in the third quarter as the
Warriors again came back, outscoring Westmoor 20-12 in the quarter.
I thought we had that strength,
Carion said. We were dominating
the post, but then it starting going
against us.
Westmoor simply started fouling
Cedeno, but the tall center maintained a 6-of-9 clip from the freethrow line. Instead, it was ball control that betrayed the Warriors. They
committed 10 turnovers through the
first three quarters. They committed
as many in the fourth.
In the closing minute, South City
looked as though it might have some
life left when Cedeno converted a
three-point play to close Westmoors
lead to 62-57. But it was the last
points the Warriors would score.
I felt like we still could have
been in the game, but how we
played after, it just went downhill
from there, Cedeno said.
Westmoors Liang and junior
Sabrina Tan shared the game-high
with 18 points apiece. Fulgencio
totaled 12 points, all on 3s.
These girls are quick, theyre
feisty and they love moving fast
sometimes to a fault, Newbeck
said. But if they keep their confidence, they are going to do well
this season.
scoring chances and Miller finally
iced the game with about three
minutes to play with her second
goal. Much like her first, Miller
simply ran past the defense to create a one-on-one with the goalkeeper.
This time, it was Sruby Vaughan
who made a perfect diagonal pass
into the path of Miller, who simply slotted her shot past Kolton to
put Terra Nova up 3-1.
The goals were our mistakes,
Tiziani said. I dont feel like we
were outplayed. Overall, Im
happy with the performance. We
werent walked over.

49ers interview Coughlin

for their coaching opening
By Janie McCauley
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SANTA CLARA Former New

York Giants coach Tom Coughlin
interviewed into Tuesday evening
with the San Francisco 49ers
regarding their head coaching
vacancy, a person with direct
knowledge of
the
meeting
told
the
As s o c i a t e d
Press.
The two-time
Super
Bowl
winning coach
met with 49ers
general managTom Coughlin er Trent Baalke
at an unspecified location on the East Coast,
the person said, speaking on condition of anonymity because the
team isnt making public its interviews or candidates to replace the
fired Jim Tomsula.
Tomsula was let go immediately
after a season-ending 19-16 overtime win against St. Louis on Jan.
3.
San Francisco CEO Jed York was
in Houston on Tuesday for the NFL
owners meetings.
The Niners, who went 5-11 and
missed the playoffs for a second
straight season, interviewed
Bengals offensive coordinator Hue
Jackson in Cincinnati on Sunday
after last weeks meetings with

interview with Browns
CLEVELAND The Browns and
Hue Jackson have had a second date.
All thats left is a long-term commitment.
The Bengals well-liked offensive
coordinator with head coaching
experience and a knack for fixing
quarterbacks met Tuesday with
Browns owner Jimmy Haslam, who
skipped the NFL meetings in
Houston to focus on finding his
next head coach.
The Browns confirmed Haslams

fired Eagles coach Chip Kelly and

Buccaneers offensive coordinator
Dirk Koetter.
San Francisco is certainly seeking experience to replace promoted defensive line coach Tomsula
after one disappointing season,
and Coughlin fits that bill. His
Giants beat the 49ers 20-17 in
overtime of the 2011 NFC championship game at Candlestick Park
in then-San Francisco coach Jim
Harbaughs first season and New
York went on to win the Super
Bowl the franchises most
recent postseason appearance.
The 69-year-old Coughlin, one
of 13 coaches to win multiple
Super Bowls, resigned from the
Giants on Jan. 4 after four straight
years of missing the playoffs and
consecutive 6-10 finishes.
In 2015, he was the oldest active
coach in the NFL. He began last
season knowing he had to turn
things around to keep his job, and
the Giants lost six games either in
the final 1:14 of regulation or in
overtime.
Coughlin had a 110-93 record in
12 seasons with the Giants, winning three division titles in addition to his two championships.
He was 72-64 in eight seasons
with
the
then-expansion
Jacksonville Jaguars, capturing
two division titles and leading
them to a pair of conference championship games in their first five
seasons.

has emerged as the front-runner to
become the teams eighth coach
since 1999 and sixth since 2008.
Cleveland has not yet extended an
offer to the 50-year-old Jackson,
who has also interviewed with the
San Francisco 49ers and is expected
to meet with the New York Giants in
the next two days.
Its not known where Haslams
meeting with Jackson took place,
but while it was going on, Dee
Haslam, who has owned Clevelands
franchise with her husband since
2012, attended the meetings in
Texas and will likely vote on the
future of pro football in Los Angeles
on behalf of the Browns.

Pavelski, Tierney lead Sharks to win over Jets

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WINNIPEG, Manitoba Joe Pavelski

scored his 22nd goal of the season and added
an assist as the San Jose Sharks defeated the
Winnipeg Jets 4-1 on Tuesday night.
San Jose was playing its third game in four
nights and won all of them.
Joe Thornton, Chris Tierney and Joel Ward,
with an empty-netter, also scored for the
Sharks. Tierney had an assist as well.
Winnipeg got its lone goal from Nikolaj
Ehlers.
Alex Stalock made 21 saves for San Jose.
Connor Hellebuyck turned aside 23 shots for
the Jets, who have lost three straight.
Tierney opened the scoring with an unas-

sisted short-handed goal at 15:18 of the first

period while teammate Tommy Wingels was in
the penalty box for hooking.
Winnipeg responded with the man advantage 23 seconds later.
Drew Stafford took a giveaway from Sharks
defenseman Justin Braun, skated into the
offensive zone and sent a backhand pass
across the front of the net to Ehlers, who used
his own backhand to score his seventh goal of
the season at 15:41.
Thornton restored the Sharks lead with 37
seconds left in the opening period on a closein shot off Tomas Hertls rebound.
The Sharks are 17-2 when scoring first.
Winnipeg coach Paul Maurice changed up
his defensive pairings in the second period,

but the team couldnt beat Stalock.

The Jets outshot the Sharks 8-6 in the middle frame, but San Jose had the overall 17-15
edge.
Winnipeg went on its third power play early
in the final period, but couldnt convert.
Hellebuyck then stopped Ward on a breakaway.
The Sharks got their fourth power play of
the game midway through the period, but came
away empty.
They had another chance a few minutes later
after Jets defenseman Tyler Myers was called
for cross-checking and a game misconduct
when he banged Wingels in the head after
Wingels checked him hard into the boards.
Jets forward Blake Wheeler appeared to

score after Stalock fell coming out of his

crease on a clearing attempt, but Wheeler was
whistled for tripping the netminder as he went
by him and around the back of the net to grab
the puck.
With the Sharks on a long 5-on-3, Pavelski
took a pass from Tierney and fired a sharpangle shot by Hellebuyck with 4:01 remaining.
Ward put in his empty-netter with 54 seconds left in the game.
NOTES: NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman
watched the game from Jets co-owner Mark
Chipmans box. . Jets center Mark Scheifele
missed his second straight game with a lowerbody injury. Maurice said Monday that
Scheifele could be out for up to a week.

RAIDERS

of the leagues top teams.

The Raiders have been unable to add to that
success since their return outside of a three-year
run starting in 2000 when the Raiders made it to
two AFC title games and one Super Bowl. The
team has failed to post a winning record or make
the playoffs in the 18 other seasons.
The move back also wasnt very successful off
the field as the city of Oakland and Alameda
County were left holding the bag after personal
seat licenses failed to cover the cost of the $220
million renovation that added more than 10,000
seats and luxury boxes in what was called Mount
Davis.
The city and county still owe about $100 million in debt on the upgrade, which has made
financing a new stadium problematic.
But with the Coliseum growing more outdated
and suffering from occasional sewage backups
and other infrastructure problems, a new stadium
is essential.
Oakland has no firm plans for a new stadium,
but has trumpeted the wealth of the Bay Area and
the prime location of the Coliseum with its
proximity to public transit and freeways as reasons to keep the Raiders in town.
In a letter to the NFL last month, Oakland officials said they would be able to give the Raiders
60 acres of land on the Coliseum site to build a
new 55,000-seat stadium and development area
if they can get the funding.
Davis has said there was a $500 million gap
in what he was able to spend and how much the
stadium would cost and also wants more land for
the stadium. The NFL said it was willing to give
an additional $100 million to help reach a stadium deal in Oakland, but that still leaves a gap.

Continued from page 11

and hope the additional time granted by
Tuesdays decision will help them reach a deal
for a new stadium without direct public subsidies.
We recognize the clock is ticking and this
opportunity will not last forever, Mayor Libby
Schaaf said. My hope is we are given a year to
get what will be a very complex project together.
The decision Tuesday gives at least a temporary reprieve to Oakland fans who had their
hearts broken once before when the Raiders
departed for Los Angeles following the 1981
season.
Ray Perez, a 28-year-old Raiders fan from
Sacramento who goes by the moniker Dr.
Death, traveled to Houston in his usual Black
Hole garb, was cautiously optimistic after hearing the news.
I will not be completely, fully thrilled until
the ink dries on paper and we know were staying in Oakland in a new stadium, Perez said.
Im very happy, very happy. But Im not going
to be overjoyed until we sign a stadium deal to
keep the Raiders in Oakland with our own stadium.
The team spent 14 years in Los Angeles
before returning to Oakland amid much fanfare
for the 1995 season. But the return stay has not
been nearly as successful as the first tenure when
the Raiders won two Super Bowls and were one

Easy tips for making a tastier turkey chili

invite over some friends and yell at football
players on TV.
Maybe its time to try a new, healthier
recipe, too? Chili is classic American comfort
food, so we automatically assume that it cant
be healthy. But since it is so darned tasty, its
worth the price of admission to try. And while
Im not against the occasional indulgence, I
also love a recipe that manages to be both
comforting and healthy.
Enter my game day turkey chili. Stay with
me, here. This will not be your typical turkey
chili because I have a few tricks up my sleeve.
Dont get me wrong, I love a good turkey
chili. But they do occupy a special place in
the stratified chili eco-system. Put them in a
chili competition and youll see they land
well below the fatty brisket chilies that feature tiny puddles of tasty melted fat that pleasantly coat the palate. Turkey chili, if Im honest, has been relegated to the at least its
hot status for too long.
Here are my tricks. First, make it a red chili.
White chili step aside for a moment. The red
part comes from tomato, which is healthy,
and frankly just feels like comfort food.
Second, skip the salt. Instead, use soy sauce
directly on the meat after cooking it. This is
perhaps the greatest tip I can give you regarding ground turkey! White-ish meat in a deep
red chili looks a little strange. You are reminded that you are eating The Healthy Turkey
Chili.
But deepen that meat color just a little with
the soy sauce and you are back in the land of
Real Meaty Chili. The soy sauce also adds
tons of rich, savory meaty flavor, a big benefit for a meat that can taste a little flat.
Final tip: Add a bit of unsweetened cocoa
powder, which deepens both the color and the
flavor. This is turkey chili done right! And so,

Start to finish: 45 minutes

Servings: 8
2 teaspoons vegetable oil, divided
1 pound lean ground turkey
2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
2 teaspoons smoked paprika
1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
1 red bell pepper, cored and finely chopped
12-ounce light beer
Two 15-ounce cans low-sodium black

serve
In a Dutch oven or other large, heavy pot
over medium-high, heat 1 teaspoon of the oil.
Add the turkey and cook, breaking it up, until
cooked through, about 7 minutes. Sprinkle
the turkey with the soy sauce and smoked
paprika, then mix until well-coated. Continue
to cook until any moisture in the pot is gone,
about 3 minutes. Spoon the meat out of the
pan and set aside.
Return the pot to the heat and add the
remaining oil. Add the onion and red pepper,
then cook until tender, about 5 minutes.
Increase the heat to high, then add the beer to
deglaze the pan, scraping the bottom to
loosen any stuck bits. Simmer for 2 minutes.
Return the meat to the pot, along with the
beans, tomato sauce, crushed tomatoes, chili
powder, cayenne and cocoa powder. Bring to a
simmer. Reduce the heat to low, then simmer
for 30 minutes.
Serve with hot sauce, yogurt, scallions and
cheese on the side.

square feet of office space and 1,325 square
feet of retail space at 988 Howard Ave., near
the corner of Myrtle Road.
Commission Chair Jeff DeMartini, along
with commissioners Michael Gaul, William
Loftis and Peter Gum opposed the project,
while taking issue with the proposed building design and questioning how effectively
it would serve as a transitional development
between the citys downtown and the nearby
residential neighborhood.
Gum said he appreciated a variety of the
elements of the project, but ultimately considered it too large for the proposed placement.
I love the architecture. I love the design.
I love everything about it, except I dont
know it is the right building for this site,
he said.
The 45-foot building was proposed for
redevelopment of the Olde English Garage
property, with 67 parking spots split
between two lots, one located on the street
and another underground.
Commissioners took issue with the proposed parking design during previous
reviews of the project, and said during the
most recent meeting not enough had been
done to address their concerns.
Ive seen no evidence that another parking solution has been studied, said Loftis.
If it cant be done, it cant be done, but I
dont know that it cant be done.
Commissioners appreciated the proposal
to dedicate the ground floor of the structure
as retail, in an attempt to bring additional
amenities to a part of town that does not

The plan is a blueprint for future growth
in the Inner Harbor east of Highway 101.
It shows two alternatives currently for
Docktown, one where it stays in place and
another where it is moved to the nearby
privately-owned Ferrari Pond.
If anything, the private use of houseboats in fact detracts from these legitimate
public trust uses. For example, by restricting areas of the harbor to private residential use, houseboats deprive the public
access to the tidelands for recreational,

enjoy many small stores or food outlets.
The site is just east of the southern end of
the Burlingame Avenue Caltrain station.
But concerns regarding the size, scope
and placement of the project near the transition from the surrounding neighborhood to
the Burlingame Avenue commercial district
ultimately overwhelmed the commissioners
who opposed the project.
My main issue is the height or mass,
said Gaul. Its too big for the gateway.
The commission was far from unanimous
in its opposition of the project though, as
commissioners Richard Terrones, Richard
Sargent and Nirmala Bandrapalli voted to
approve the building.

Sargent said he believed enough had been

done enough to address issues previously
raised by the commission.
They have been responsive to the design
suggestions we have had, he said. I would
have a really hard time at this point in the
game telling them no, you have got to go
back to the drawing board.
Terrones expressed admiration for the
project as well.
Im seeing it as supportable at this
point, in terms of overall planning, he
said.
Ultimately though, those in support of
the building application were not persuasive enough, due primarily to concerns of

navigation and similar public trust purposes, Vogel wrote.

rules on whether the marina is legal or not,

that they have a right to stay. They also
argue that moving to the Ferrari Pond is no
guarantee since the land is privately
owned.

The state Legislature granted the sovereign lands where Docktown is located in
trust of Redwood City for the establishment, improvement and conduct of a harbor, including an airport or aviation facilities, and for the construction, maintenance and operation thereon of wharves,
docks, piers, slips, quays and other utilities, structures, facilities and appliances
necessary or convenient for the promotion and accommodation of commerce and
navigation by air as well as by water,
Vogel wrote in the letter.
Docktown residents, however, argue that
until the State Lands Commission itself

Meanwhile, Rich Ferrari has made it

clear that business decisions will determine his use of his property. He may rent
slips. He may sell slips. He may also build
and sell floating homes, Docktown resident Lee Callister said at a Planning
Commission hearing Dec. 1.
Although commission staff has stated
the floating home community along
Redwood Creek is essentially illegal, its
governing body has yet to make that determination, Callister said previously.

the opposition regarding the size of the

project compared to the surrounding structures.
Im having trouble with the height on
this, said Gaul. I know other people in the
community feel this way as well.
Toby Levy, the architect hired by applicant Dimitrious Sogas, said she expects the
project to be further refined and then submitted again for approval.
Hopefully we get this back into the city
ASAP, she said. Now I think its just a
matter of satisfying some of the commissioners on the mass and scale.
Under the commissions decision, the
applicant has an opportunity to appeal to
the City Council in the next 10 days, which
will cost an additional $533 fee.
Typically when the commission takes
issue with the proposed design of a project,
it can be referred back to the citys design
review process for further examination and
suggested alterations.
But Burlingame suffers a dearth of cityapproved consultants qualified to consider
the design of commercial projects, according to Planning Manager Kevin Gardiner,
so only residential projects are eligible for
referral back to design review.
To fill the void of an official review
process, Terrones worked to rally those who
opposed the project toward giving the
applicant guidance on how the building
could be redesigned.
And though some commissioners were
able to illustrate their concerns regarding
the height and mass of the project, in relation to the surrounding homes and businesses, others were more vague.
I regret I dont have a solution, said
Gum. But the massing and size are inconsistent with the Myrtle plan and overall
general plan.
The citys plans for the 100 acres of land
east of Highway 101 call for adding 1.2
million square feet of offices and 4,880
new jobs, according to the Inner Harbor
Specific Plan unveiled in October.
The plan calls for adding 1,211 residents
in 550 new housing units and for the creation of a floating home community on
Ferrari Pond.
The Docktown Marina would cease under
the plan and 40 acres will be set aside as
open space or tidal marsh lands.
It also includes the addition of 40,000
square feet of retail.

Ten foods you must try in San Francisco

By Michelle Locke

TEA

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Whether youre parched from purchasing

Pradas and other goodies from the boutiques of Union Square or simply resting
up from an afternoon of window shopping, The Rotunda at Neiman Marcus is a
fun spot to enjoy the elegant refreshment
of afternoon tea. Set under a stained glass
dome with views of Union Square, the
restaurant serves teas, starting at $45,
from 2:30 to 4 p. m. Sunday through
Thursday, and 2:30 to 5 p.m. Friday and
Saturday (150 Stockton St., Level Four).
Or try the Samovar Tea Lounge at Yerba
Buena Gardens (730 Howard St.). English
tea service starts at $24.

SAN FRANCISCO San Francisco is a

city with serious food game, whether playing as multi-starred cuisine served in a
white tablecloth hush or a simple crab
cocktail eaten amid the boisterous clamor
of Fishermans Wharf.
And with the Super Bowl heading to
nearby Santa Clara, the hungry hordes
hankering for a taste of the local food
scene wont be disappointed. If youre
lucky enough to be among them
whether youre looking to dine on one of
the citys iconic standbys or venture into
cutting-edge cuisine heres a guide to
10 foods and drinks San Francisco is
famous for and where to find them.

TIKI

BEER
Anchor Brewing and San Francisco have
a history that goes all the way back to
1849, when German brewer Gottlieb
Brekle arrived with his family. The brewery weathered earthquakes, fires and
Prohibition just fine, but almost went
under
entirely
when
mid-century
Americans developed a taste for mass-produced beer. In 1965, Fritz Maytag saved
the place from bankruptcy, bringing back
Anchor Steam Beer and writing a new
chapter in suds history. You can get a firstperson look at the brewery via tours available most days except holidays. The tours
cost $15 per person, take about 90 minutes and conclude with a tasting.
Reservations are required; you can make
them
here:
h t t p : / / www. an ch o rb rewi n g . co m/ b rewery/tours . Another option is the 21st
Amendment Brewery & Restaurant (563
2nd St.), which has a selection of house
beers served with traditional pub grub.

CIOPPINO
This is the fish stew created in San
Francisco by Italian fishermen in North
Beach in the late 1800s. Theyd toss into
a pot whatever seafood was left from the
days catch crab, shrimp, clams, fish,
etc. along with onions, garlic, tomatoes, olive oil, wine and herbs. Italian
restaurants started serving the dish and
soon it was part of the regions culinary
lexicon. A solid bet in North Beach is
Sotto Mare (552 Green St.). Tadich Grill
(240 California St.) also is a good choice.

You can get a first-person look at Anchor Brewing via tours available most days.

COFFEE
This is a fully caffeinated city with coffee shops on just about every block. For
something out of the ordinary, try Ritual,
a pioneer in the craft caffeine movement.
The flagship location is 1026 Valencia St.
in the Mission District. Blue Bottle,
which began across the bay in Oakland,
has a spot in San Franciscos Ferry
Building. And for coffee with that little
extra kick, try the famous Irish Coffee at
the Buena Vista Cafe in Fishermans Wharf
(2765 Hyde St.).

CRAB
You can pick up a traditional crab cocktail at one of the many vendors lining
Fishermans Wharf, http://www. fishermanswharf.org . For a different take, try it
roasted and served with garlic noodles at
Thanh Long (4101 Judah St.). Like your
crab crispy? Get it shelled, battered and
deep-fried at the R & G Lounge in
Chinatown (631 Kearny St.).

STREET SCENE
For meals on wheels, check out Off the
Grid, a roaming event featuring food
trucks, carts, tents and live entertainment.

schedules and participants. http://offthegridsf.com/

OYSTERS
Oysters on the half shell are a longstanding San Francisco tradition. For an
elegant take with a great view of the Bay
Bridge
try
Waterbar
(399
The
Embarcadero). Starting Jan. 30 dinner will
be accompanied by a free light show with
the return of the Bay Lights, a display that
flashes nightly on the west span of the
bridge. Also on the waterfront, Hog Island
Oyster Bar in the Ferry Building.

SOURDOUGH
The regions tradition of sourdough
bread leavened with a wild yeast starter or
mother dough dates back to the Gold
Rush. Boudin Bakery, established in 1849
according to bakery history the original mother dough was saved in a bucket
during the 1906 earthquake has a veritable shrine to sourdough at its Fishermans
Wharf
location
(160
Jefferson St). It includes a
museum and demonstration
bakery. Another good place
to try this crusty creation is
Tartine
Bakery
(600
Guerrero St.).

If you like Tiki bars, a stop at the

Fairmont Hotels Tonga Room is mandatory. Set around what used to be the hotels
indoor swimming pool, the bar features
rain shows, live music and more kitsch
than you can throw a tiny paper umbrella
at (950 Mason St.). Another option is
Smugglers Cove, which has more than
400 rums (650 Gough St.).

VEGETARIAN
Into veggies with a vista? Greens
Restaurant is not just a vegetarian restaurant, its a high-end spot that has been
nominated for best overall restaurant in
America in the James Beard Awards and is
set in historic Fort Mason Center with
views of the Golden Gate Bridge and Marin
Headlands (2 Marina Blvd., Fort Mason
Center Building A). You also can find
bountiful produce at the Ferry Plaza
Farmers Markets held Tuesday, Thursdays
and Saturdays. http://ferrybuildingmarketplace.com/farmersmarket.php For a
futuristic take on food, try Eatsa (121
Spear St.). There are no waiters or cashiers
here. You place your order on wall-mounted tablets, then wait for one of the illuminated cubbies lining one wall to display
your name in lights, indicating your
orders ready. Eatsa specializes in quinoavegetable bowls in myriad combinations.
All are vegetarian and some are vegan.

DISTRICT
Continued from page 1
tunity to elect officials based on the
area of Redwood City where they live.
Districts throughout the state have
changed their voting system in recent
years to enhance protection against
lawsuits potentially filed by residents
alleging they are unable to elect officials who best represent their community.
Candidates are currently assigned to
the Redwood City Elementary School
District board through at-large elections, which awards seats to candidates
who receive the most votes in a citywide election.
But some communities have successfully sued in recent years to switch the
election systems of their local district,
to require a trustee to be elected based
on the area of the city where they live.
No action is set to be taken during
the upcoming Redwood City meeting,
but board President Alisa MacAvoy
said she is interested in finding out
more about the details regarding the
issue.
Its an opportunity for us to hear
the information as a board and have
that conversation about what steps we
want to take, she said.
During the meeting Wednesday
night, an attorney from education law
firm Dannis, Woliver and Kelley will

OBAMA
Continued from page 1
build on it but acknowledged the
persistent anxieties of Americans who
feel shut out of a changing economy or
at risk from an evolving terror threat.
While Obama did not directly call out
Republicans, he sharply, and at times
sarcastically, struck back at rivals who
have challenged his economic and
national security stewardship.
In one of his most pointed swipes at
the GOP candidates running to succeed
him, Obama warned against voices
urging us to fall back into tribes, to
scapegoat fellow citizens who dont
look like us or pray like us or vote like
we do or share the same background.
His words were unexpectedly echoed
by South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley,
who was selected to give the
Republican response to Obamas
address. Underscoring how the heated
campaign rhetoric about immigrants
and minorities from GOP front-runner
Donald Trump in particular has
unnerved some Republican leaders,
Haley called on Americans to resist the
temptation to follow the siren call of
the angriest voices.

give a presentation to district officials

regarding the difference between the
two election systems.
MacAvoy said the board requested
Superintendent John Baker bring in
legal representation to further inform
them on the law, and what it could
mean for the Redwood City Elementary
School District.
I feel like I want to hear from the
experts on where we are at, said
MacAvoy.
Baker, in an email, acknowledged
the issue was brought at the request of
district trustees.
Our board requested further discussion on this issue so that they can hear
information that will help them decide
how to move forward, he said.
In cases where communities have
filed suit, residents typically claim
they do not feel adequately represented
by those elected to their school board,
which could potentially render minority voices powerless against a larger
voting majority.
The suits, claiming violations of the
California Voting Rights Act, can be
costly, as districts are often required to
pay large settlements to the filing
party, as well as refund attorneys fees.
Other outcomes of the cases, beyond
requiring the district to change its
election system, can be forcing officials to draw trustee boundary areas.
The lawsuits have resulted in multiple settlements across California,
according to a district report, and more
than 100 school and community col-

lege district have proactively decided

to change their election systems.
Districts which elect trustees based
on the area where they live are immune
to the threat of lawsuit, according to
the report.
David Soldani, an attorney with the
law firm Atkinson, Andelson, Loya,
Ruud and Romo, recommended in July
the South San Francisco Unified
School District Board of Trustees
change its at-large voting system to
protect itself from exposure to a
potential lawsuit.
No other school district in San
Mateo County elects trustees via bydistrict elections, but Soldani said during the meeting in South San
Francisco it is only a matter of time
before a local agency is challenged.
It is not a question of if, but a question of when, he said.
A lawsuit compelled the San Mateo
County Board of Supervisors to switch
to by-district elections in 2012, and
the countys community college district had looked into potentially
switching from an at-large system, but
ultimately did not pursue the effort.
For her part, MacAvoy said she
anticipated an illuminating presentation during the upcoming meeting.
I do expect this to be informative,
she said.
The Redwood City Elementary
School District Board of Trustees
meets 7 p.m., Jan. 13, in the district
office, 750 Bradford St.

No one who is willing to work hard,

abide by our laws and love our traditions should ever feel unwelcome, said
Haley, whose parents are Indian immigrants.
Focused on his own legacy, Obama
ticked off a retrospective of his domestic and foreign policy actions in office,
including helping lead the economy
back from the brink of depression,
muscling through a sweeping health
care law, taking aggressive action on
climate change and ending a Cold War
freeze with Cuba.
He touted implementation of the
landmark nuclear deal with Iran, but
made no mention of the 10 American
sailors picked up by Iran Tuesday. The
Pentagon said the sailors had drifted
into Iranian waters after encountering
mechanical problems and would be
returned safely and promptly.
Tackling one of the most vexing foreign policy challenges of his presidency, Obama vowed a robust campaign to
take out the Islamic State group, but
chastised Republicans for over the top
claims about the extremist groups
power.
Masses of fighters on the back of
pickup trucks and twisted souls plotting in apartments or garages pose an
enormous danger and must be stopped,
he said. But they do not threaten our

national existence.
The presidents words were unlikely
to satisfy Republicans, as well as some
Democrats, who say he underestimates
the Islamic States power and is leaving
the U.S. vulnerable to attacks at home.
Obama was frank about one of his
biggest regrets: failing to ease the persistently deep divisions between
Democrats and Republicans. The GOPled Congress Obama stood before
Tuesday night is hostile to his ideas
and angry about his executive orders on
issues from guns to immigration.
On the campaign trail, Trumps heated rhetoric is seen by some voters as a
welcome contrast to Obamas cool
calls for civility. On his Twitter
account Tuesday night, the candidate
dismissed Obamas speech as really
boring.
As for political disagreement,
Obama conceded, The rancor and suspicion between the parties has gotten
worse instead of better. Theres no
doubt a president with the gifts of
Lincoln or Roosevelt might have better bridged the divide, and I guarantee
Ill keep trying to be better so long as
I hold this office.
He specifically called for ending the
gerrymandering of some congressional
districts that gives parties an iron grip
on House seats.

Suicide bomber kills 10, wounds 15 in Istanbul

By Mehmet Guzel and Suzan Fraser
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

REUTERS

Rescue teams gather at the scene after an explosion in central Istanbul, Turkey.

ISTANBUL A suicide bomber detonated

a bomb in the heart of Istanbuls historic
district on Tuesday, killing 10 foreigners
most of them German tourists and wounding 15 other people in the latest in a string
of attacks by the Islamic extremists targeting Westerners.
The blast, just steps from the historic
Blue Mosque and a former Byzantine church
in the citys storied Sultanahmet district,
was the first by IS to target Turkeys vital
tourism sector, although IS militants have
struck with deadly effect elsewhere in the
country.
Turkish Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu
said the bomber was a member of IS and
pledged to battle the militant group until it
no longer remains a threat to Turkey or the
world.
Davutoglu described the assailant as a
foreign national, and Deputy Prime
Minister Numan Kurtulmus said he was a
Syrian citizen born in 1988. However, the
private Dogan news agency said the bomber
was Saudi-born. Kurtulmus said the attacker
was believed to have recently entered Turkey
from Syria and was not among a list of
potential bombers wanted by Turkey.
Turkey wont backtrack in its struggle
against Daesh by even one step, Davutoglu
said, referring to IS by its Arabic acronym.
This terror organization, the assailants and
all of their connections will be found and
they will receive the punishments they
deserve.
Eight Germans were among the dead and
nine others were wounded, some seriously,
German Foreign Minister Frank-Walter

Pentagon: Two U.S. Navy boats

held by Iran but will be returned
WASHINGTON Iran was holding 10
U.S. Navy sailors and their two small boats
that drifted into Iranian waters with mechanical problems. Iran accused the sailors of
trespassing but American officials said
Tehran has assured them that the crew and
vessels would be returned safely and
promptly.
The sailors were expected to be transferred
to U.S. custody Wednesday morning local
time.
Pentagon spokesman Peter Cook told the
Associated Press that the riverine boats
were moving between Kuwait and Bahrain
when the U.S. lost contact with them.

Steinmeier told reporters in Berlin. The

nationalities of the two others killed in the
blast were not immediately released, but
both were foreigners. The wounded also
included citizens of Norway, Peru, South
Korea and Turkey.
Turkeys state-run news agency said
Davutoglu held a telephone conversation
with German chancellor Angela Merkel to
express his condolences.
I strongly condemn the terror incident
that occurred in Istanbul, at the Sultanahmet
Square, and which has been assessed as
being an attack by a Syria-rooted suicide
bomber, President Recep Tayyip Erdogan
said.
Merkel pledged Germany would continue
its fight against terrorism.
Today Istanbul was the target, before
Paris, Copenhagen, Tunis, and so many
other areas, she told reporters in Berlin.
International terror changes the places of
its attacks but its goal is always the same
it is our free life, in free society. The terrorists are the enemies of all free people,
indeed, the enemies of all humanity,
whether in Syria or Turkey, in France or
Germany.
The impact of Tuesdays attack, while not
as deadly as two others last year, was particularly far-reaching because it struck at
Turkeys $30 billion tourism industry,
which has already suffered from a steep
decline in Russian visitors since Turkey
shot down a Russian warplane near the
Syrian border in November.
Its apparent links to Syria also threatened
to have implications in a country that is
already dealing with more than 2 million
Syrian refugees and a wave of migrants from
Syria and other countries pouring across
Turkey to Europe.

Around the world

U.S. officials said that the incident happened near Farsi Island in the middle of the
Persian Gulf. They said some type of
mechanical trouble with one of the boats
caused them to run aground and they were
picked up by Iran. The sailors were in
Iranian custody on Farsi Island at least for
some time, but its not certain where they
are now.
The semi-official Iranian news agency,
FARS, said the Iranian Revolutionary
Guards navy has detained 10 foreign forces,
believed to be Americans, and said the
sailors were trespassing in Iranian waters.
FARS also reported that one of the 10
sailors was a woman.
