City pursues affordable housing at Bay Meadows

San Mateo proceeds with new apartments as tenant protection debate heats up
By Samantha Weigel
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

As the debate over how to address the

regions affordable housing crisis continues to heat up, many are focused on more
immediate tenant protection measures
such as proposed ballot initiatives urging
rent control in three Peninsula cities and the
San Mateo City Council considering a relo-

cation assistance program for those facing

unjust evictions or steep rent increases.
But a long-awaited example of the less
controversial suggestion to alleviate
demand by increasing supply is more quietly unfolding as San Mateo seeks an affordable housing developer to help construct
below-market-rate apartments on a cityowned 1-acre site at Bay Meadows.
The massive 160-acre transit-oriented

development and home of the former race

track off Highway 101, is well into Phase II
with office buildings, retail space and housing units completed or under construction.
As part of the negotiated development
terms approved in 2008, San Mateo
received a 1-acre site on which it could build
an affordable housing complex.
On Tuesday, the city released a request for
affordable housing developers to submit

their qualifications and proposals as San

Mateo seeks a partner to create up to 68
rental units geared toward very low-income
families.
The plan is to construct a mix of one-,
two- and three-bedroom units for those
making up to 50 percent of the areas median income at the site, which is nestled next

Army Cpl. Robert Perry Graham was laid to rest in Colma Friday. The prisoner of war went missing in Korea nearly 65 years
ago. DNA from local relatives helped to identify his remains.

POW laid to rest

As the parcel tax in San Mateo-Foster City Elementary

School District is set to soon expire, officials are interested in potentially pursuing an extension of the revenue
source considered essential by some.
Measure A, the citys existing $180 parcel tax, will sunset in June 2017, and the district Board of Trustees has preliminarily discussed strategies to keep the funding source in
place.
Should district officials wish to put a parcel tax extension
measure on the upcoming fall ballot, surveying support of
district voters should begin as soon as this summer, with an
eye toward approving a ballot initiative by August, according to presentation by a district consultant during a meeting Thursday, March 17.
No decision was made at the meeting, as the board request-

Cpl. Robert Graham captured, starved to death in North Korea

STAFF AND WIRE REPORT

Army Cpl. Robert Perry Graham was

finally laid to rest Friday in a solemn
ceremony in Colma almost 65 years
after his combat battalion was attacked
in Korea and he went missing.
Graham was captured and starved to
death in a North Korean camp as a prisoner of war. He was 20 years old.
His remains were flown to San
Francisco Wednesday and he received a
full military funeral at Holy Cross
Catholic Cemetery with dozens of veterans in attendance.
Relatives contributed DNA that
enabled the Army to identify a single
bone from Grahams leg last year. The

bone was among

body parts of missing U. S. servicemen that North
Korea turned over in
1993.
Recent
advances in genetic
testing
allowed
officials to make
Robert Graham the ID.
The flag draped
over Grahams casket Friday was folded and presented to his nephew James
George, a retired Marine Corps master
sergeant from Fairfield who contributed his DNA.
Grahams niece, Nicole Venturelli of
Redwood City, also contributed DNA

to identify Grahams remains.

Wearing his military uniform,
George watched as six servicemen carried the flag-wrapped casket from a
hearse to his grave site at Holy Cross.
His body was escorted to the cemetery
after funeral services were held earlier
in Daly City and Duggans Serra
Mortuary.
A long procession of veterans on
motorcycles carrying American flags
led the motorcade with a police escort.
His remains were not among those
returned by North Korea after the
armistice in July 1953.
Venturelli said Wednesday that

Millbrae general plan

update gets underway

SAN FRANCISCO A salary agreement

that forestalled an unprecedented faculty
strike at the California State Universitys
23 campuses would increase salaries by
10.5 percent over three years and double
how long it takes newly hired instructors
to be eligible for retirement benefits, university and union officials said Friday.
The tentative deal between the 26,000member California Faculty Association and
the nations largest public university system represents a compromise and comes as
both sides girded for an unprecedented fiveday work stoppage next week.
Union members and the universitys governing board still must approve the contract, which would cost about $200 million
to implement, system Chancellor Timothy
White said in an interview with the
Associated Press.
Money the university did not spend on
faculty raises this year while contract
negotiations dragged on and funds already
budgeted for another increase next year will
cover more than half of that cost, White
said. Both Cal State and the union would be
lobbying lawmakers and the governor for
more funding to underwrite the rest.

Millbrae officials are seeking input from

engaged residents interested in contributing to the development of policies designed
to craft the future of the community.
The Millbrae City Council is set to host a
community workshop Monday, April 11, to
discuss updates to the citys general plan,
the master document which will guide policy decisions over coming years.
Councilman Wayne Lee said the perspective of residents is integral to ensure officials are able to consider a wide variety of
opinions representative of the entire community before taking action.
We dont want five people, the City
Council, to dictate the future of Millbrae,
he said. We want many people to dictate
the future of Millbrae.
During the upcoming meeting, officials
will gather perspective from residents
regarding the citys best qualities, as well as
opportunities for improvement, according
to a city report.
Decisions regarding housing development, public safety, transportation, budget
priorities, capital improvements and a variety of other key issues will be generated by
the direction from the general plan, according to the report.
This is the second meeting officials have
held since the general plan update process
began last month, but Lee said the upcoming session will be more focused on the
opinion of residents.
This is going to be much more community focused, he said.
The initial step toward addressing the
general plan update began with a joint
meeting Tuesday, March 15, between the
City Council and Planning Commission.
Community Development Director Tonya
Ward said, in an email, the upcoming meeting is a chance for the community to participate in the citys planning process.
The purpose and goal of the workshop is
to have residents share their view on the
communitys major issues and opportunities, and to start developing a vision for the
future of Millbrae, she said. This workshop will begin the citys two-year process
to update the existing 1998 general plan.

The general plan is a long-range planning

document that will look ahead to 2040.
The initiative marks the second comprehensive overhaul of major planning documents officials have taken on in recent
months, as the council recently updated the
Millbrae Station Area Specific Plan, which
laid the groundwork for development in the
area surrounding the citys Caltrain and Bay
Area Rapid Transit Station.
The station area plan update, approved in
February, allows development of homes,
offices, retail space and possibly a hotel in
the 116-acre site near the intersection of
Millbrae Avenue and El Camino Real, the
citys gateway from Highway 101.
But officials agreed to first address the
station area specific plan, said Lee, due to
pressure from developers in a rush to propose projects for construction in the area
near the train station.
The general plan should have been done
a while ago, said Lee. But we didnt have
control of that timeline.
Lee and Councilwoman Gina Papan voted
against approving the station area specific
plan.
Lee said he hoped the general plan update
would be a more organic process guided by
officials, but informed by residents.
Lets get the input of what issues are
important to the community, he said.
As the citys demographics continue to
shift, and an older population ages out
while young families join the community,
Lee said it is imperative for residents who
will live in Millbrae for the next few
decades to contribute to the conversation.
Everyone has different needs, and those
are the trends that we are seeing, he said.
The general plan is not relevant strictly
to city residents, said Lee, as many members of the communities across San Mateo
County travel to Millbrae while accessing
the public transportation hub.
Lee said he would also appreciate opinion
of residents from other cities who may be
able to share a broader regional perspective
on how to improve Millbrae going forward.
Its not like this is just a Millbrae
issue, he said.
The community workshop will begin 7
p.m., Monday, April 11, in the Chetcuti
Room, 450 Poplar Ave.

SpaceX launches pop-up

room, lands rocket at sea
By Marcia Dunn
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. SpaceX

resumed station deliveries for NASA on
Friday, and in a double triumph, successfully
landed its booster rocket on an ocean platform for the first time.
The unmanned Falcon rocket soared into a
clear afternoon sky, carrying a full load of
supplies for the International Space Station
as well as a futuristic pop-up room.
After sending the Dragon capsule on its
way, the first-stage booster peeled away.
Instead of dropping into the Atlantic like
leftover junk, the 15-story booster steered to
a vertical touchdown on the barge, named Of
Course I Still Love You.
Hundreds of SpaceX employees gathered
outside the companys glassed-in mission
control in Hawthorne, California, cheered
wildly, jumped up and down, and chanted,
USA, USA, USA!.
Absolutely incredible, said a SpaceX
commentator. The crowd is going a little

nuts here, as expected.

Although the company managed to land a
spent booster rocket at Cape Canaveral in
December, touchdowns at sea had proven elusive, with several attempts ending in explosions on the floating barge. SpaceXs
founder Elon Musk wants to ultimately reuse
rocket parts to shave launch costs.
This marks SpaceXs first shipment for the
space station in a year. A launch accident
halted cargo flights last June.
The Dragon and its 7,000 pounds of freight
including the attention-grabbing payload
should reach the space station Sunday.
Bigelow Aerospace is providing the
expandable compartment, which swells to
the size of a small bedroom. Its a testbed for
orbiting rental property that the Nevada
company hopes to launch in four years, and
also for moon and Mars habitats.
Traffic has been heavy lately at the 260mile-high complex. NASAs other commercial shipper, Orbital ATK, made a delivery at
the end of March, then Russia just last weekend.

A man with ties to an international investment firm is suing Belmont and a local water
utility for more than $1 million alleging
municipal officials ruined his plans to
develop four single-family homes in the
hills.
Samir and Rafia Shaikh filed the lawsuit in
San Mateo County Superior Court Tuesday
alleging Mid-Peninsula Water District and
the city are responsible for negligence,
trespassing, fraud, nuisance and more.
The Shaikhs own four lots off Belmont
Canyon Road just south of Ralston Avenue
near State Route 92, where theyd hoped to
construct homes on the primarily vacant
land. The duo purchased the site that was
being foreclosed on, as is from Springleaf
Financial Services Inc. in 2012 for
$38,000, according to the lawsuit.
In the years since, the Shaikhs claim
theyve had to pay for failing pipes running
under their land while district and city
employees trespassed on their property to
access gates and pipes. A Mid-Pen water
tank may be bordering the site.
According to the suit, the defendants
imposed easements and encroached on the
property with physical barriers and employees frequently using the site to access pipes.
Defendants acts of trespass caused soil
and hillside erosion, damage to the fence,
vegetation and impaired the suitability to
Plaintiffs intended purpose (development
plans), according to the suit. Defendants
chronic and future use of the land will exacerbate this damage caused to the land.
City Attorney Scott Rennie said the city
of Belmont had not yet been served with the
lawsuit as of Thursday afternoon. While he
couldnt comment on pending litigation, he
questioned whether the city had any part in
the matter as the pipes do not belong to

Comment on
or share this story at
www.smdailyjournal.com
Belmont. Rennie confirmed property owners are typically responsible for maintaining the water or sewer lines running under
their land.
Samir Shaikh said he had no further comment on the lawsuit at this time.
Samir Shaikh is listed as cofounder and
CEO of Rahmat International, a firm headquartered in Redwood City with a corporate
office in Pakistan. According to its website,
its subsidiary Rahmat Investments was
founded in 2008 to consolidate its real
estate holdings in the United States and
Pakistan. It lists experience in real estate
acquisition, development and marketing.
The company also has a multi-decade history in manufacturing marble and onyx tiles in
Pakistan and selling them in the United
States, according to its website.
According to the suit, the Shaikhs bought
the site as is from the financial service
group that noted it had no knowledge of the
property, didnt disclose the easements but
advertised it as a lot where one could place
houses on the hills with views.
The Shaikhs claim theyve been unable to
develop the site having faced significant
costs to repair defective pipes that run under
the property and that the easements diminish its value. They also allege the defendants agreed, but failed to remove the easements after the Shaikhs paid an undisclosed
amount to fix the pipes, according to the
suit.
Theyre now seeking at least $1 million
in general damages, $100,000 in special
damages as well as punitive damages, attorney fees and more, according to the complaint.

Ted Cruz builds support among

LAS VEGAS Ted Cruz has hundreds of

influential Republican donors and Jewish
leaders all to himself this weekend in Las
Vegas as he addresses the Republican Jewish
Coalition.
Cruzs rivals for the GOP presidential
nomination, Donald Trump and John
Kasich, declined invitations to attend a
puzzling move in particular for Trump as he
tries to project himself as a party unifier
who deserves the Republican nomination
even if he falls short of winning enough delegates in the primaries to clinch it outright.
Trump had no clear scheduling conflict,
with no public events this weekend until a
Rochester, N.Y. rally Sunday afternoon.
Its a missed opportunity for Trump to
build on a well-received recent speech
before the American Israel Public Affairs
Committee, said Abbie Friedman, an RJC

board member who introduced Trump when he

spoke to the Republican
group in December.
With Cruz coming in,

Bill Clinton regrets scolding protesters at rally

By Lisa Lerer
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON A day after a heated

exchange with protesters, Former President
Bill Clinton is offering a near-apology for
his behavior at a campaign event for his
wife, Hillary Clinton.
Bill Clinton told supporters in Erie,
Pennsylvania on Friday that he likes
protests but it bothers him when the
activists drown him out.
So I did something yesterday in
Philadelphia. I almost wanted to apologize
for it, but I want to use it as an example of
the danger threatening our country, he said.
Bill Clinton said Americans need to be
able to have conversations, even when they

are angry a standard he

failed to meet on
Thursday afternoon with
the protesters.
I realized, finally, I
was talking past her in
the way she was talking
past me. We got to stop
that in this country. We
got to listen to each
Bill Clinton
other, he said.
The handful of protesters at the Hillary
Clinton presidential rally were objecting to
welfare reform and gun violence laws passed
when he was in office 20 years ago. They
stood in the crowd holding signs reading
Clinton crime bill destroyed our communities and Welfare reform increased poverty.

Stressed Out? Use These Tips

To Relieve Your Daily Anxiety

Poll shows Clinton may

be likable next to Trump
By Lisa Lerer and Emily Swanson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON In any other election

year, more than half the country holding an
unfavorable impression of a candidate for
president would be cause for alarm.
This is not a normal year.
Fifty-five percent of Americans say they
have a negative opinion of Democratic
front-runner Hillary Clinton in the latest APGfK poll. But thats not nearly as bad as how
they view the leading candidate for the
Republican nomination, Donald Trump. His
unfavorable rating stands at an unprecedented 69 percent.
The negative feelings for both are a harbinger of a general election contest thats
shaping up to be less about voters supporting the candidate of their choice, and more
about their picking the one they dislike the
least.
I dont really feel like either one is that
trustworthy, said Devin Sternadre, 26, a student from northeastern Ohio. Most of the
elections that have happened in the past Ive
felt strongly about a candidate, and I just
dont this time.
But yeah, if it was held today I guess I
would vote Clinton, he said, with a deep
sigh. I just wish there were more choices.
Democratic strategists say Trumps deep
unpopularity has alleviated some of their
concern over views of Clinton. While 55
percent of Americans have a somewhat or
very unfavorable impression of the former
secretary of state, thats about the same number as those who have a very unfavorable
opinion of Trump.
Clintons rating is also slightly better
than Republican candidate Ted Cruz: Fiftynine percent say they have an unfavorable
view of the Texas senator. Clintons
Democratic primary rival, Bernie Sanders, is
at just 39 percent unfavorable, but he trails

far behind Clinton in the

delegate battle for the
Democratic nomination.
Asked if she needed to
improve her public
image, Clinton told
reporters Friday that she
has worked to win over
voters in the past, as
Donald Trump when she ran for Senate
in New York.
Just remember, when I was secretary of
state my approval rating was the highest of
any public official. Now whats the difference? Whenever Im doing a job, people
approve of my job. When I seek the job,
when I compete for the job, then theres a
big rush by, you know, Republicans and
interests who dont agree with my values and
my vision for the country, to just pile on,
Clinton said. Ive been there, I know that,
Im not worried about it.
As the campaign moves toward the general election, Democrats argue, the dynamic
will shift from being a referendum on
Clintons character to a choice between her
and a Republican opponent. If that
Republican is Trump, Democrats see an
opportunity to unify their own party behind
Clinton and make inroads with independents
and Republicans.
Nearly half of all registered voters say
they would at least consider voting for
Clinton, far more than say they are open to
voting for Trump. Sixty-three percent say
they definitely wouldnt vote for Trump in a
general election.
Thirty-eight percent say they definitely
would not vote for Vermont Sen. Sanders.
Even in more historically conservative
Southern states, where Trump swept the GOP
primaries, voters are somewhat more likely
to say they would at least consider Clinton.
Half say they are open to her candidacy, and
39 percent to his.

Sen. Bernie Sanders to attend Vatican

conference before New York primary
By Ken Thomas
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Democratic
presidential candidate Bernie
Sanders said Friday he will attend a
Vatican City conference on social,
economic and environmental issues
next week, making the symbolic
overseas trip ahead of a pivotal New
York primary against Hillary
Clinton.
The Vermont senator has long
been an admirer of Pope Francis on
issues of wealth inequality and social
justice and his presentation to the
Pontifical Academy of Social
Sciences on April 15 will allow him
to reach a larger audience of Catholic
voters in New York four days before

the primary. Sanders trails Clinton

among delegates and the New York
contest is an important step in the
senators ability to gain ground
against the former secretary of state.
The moral imperative that (the
pope) is bringing to this discussion
is absolutely extraordinary and
absolutely what the world needs.
These are issues that I have been
dealing with for years, Sanders said
in a phone interview with the
Associated Press.
On economic issues, on issues
of poverty and income and wealth
inequality, the issues of making
sure we address the needs of the
poorest people of this planet, this
is something that the pope and I are
very much on the same page,

Indexes inch up as oil prices jump, retailers skid

By Marley Jay

DOW JONES INDUSTRIALS

NEW YORK A surge in the

price of oil sent energy companies
higher on Friday, but U.S. stocks
got only a small boost overall as
retailers suffered big losses.
Stocks rose in morning trading
as oil prices climbed, and the Dow
Jones industrial average jumped
more than 150 points early on.
Retailers skidded as investors
worried about reports from Gap
and L Brands. Biotech drugmakers
returned some of their gains from

Oil prices climbed about 7 percent this week as the dollar got
weaker. The price of oil has seesawed as investors hope energy
producing companies will cut production. Experts arent sure the
gains will last.
If this fizzles out in a week or
so I think you could see oil prices
roll over, said Steve Chiavarone,
associated portfolio manager for
Federated Investors.
The Dow picked up 35 points, or
0.2 percent, to 17,576.96. The

Judge approves $1.2B Wells

Fargo settlement in mortgage case
NEW YORK A judge in New York has
given final approval to a deal calling for
Wells Fargo Bank to pay $1.2 billion to the
government to settle claims against it for
improper mortgage lending practices.
U.S. District Court Judge Jesse Furman
approved the settlement Friday in
Manhattan.
Wells Fargo & Co. says the previously
announced deal lets it put the legal process
behind it. The San Francisco-based company
says the agreement settled a lawsuit brought
by federal prosecutors and other claims
going back 15 years.
U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara says the settlement came after one of the worlds biggest
mortgage lenders relied on government
insurance as it utilized reckless underwriting
for years.

Serra cant solve SHC

By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Warriors young
stars shooting
for wins record
By Josh Dubow

The Serra baseball team found out Friday

what Bellarmine learned Tuesday: Sacred
Heart Cathedral is legit.
After handing the Bells their rst West
Catholic Athletic League loss of the season,
2-1, earlier in the week, the Irish came into
San Mateo Friday and downed Serra 3-1 to
move into a second-place tie with the
Padres.
[SHC] battled. They fought, said Serra
manager Craig Gianinno. Its the WCAL.
You respect everyone. Theyre clearly playing with a lot of condence.
It was clear after the rst couple of
innings that the game would be a pitching
duel, which put offense and defense at
a premium. And in the end, it was Serra (3-2
WCAL, 12-3-1 overall) that blinked rst.
SHC (3-2, 12-3) scratched out a run in the
top of the fth to take a 1-0 lead, but Serra
answered in the bottom of the sixth to tie at
1.
But the Irish rallied for a pair of runs in
the top of the seventh and then shut down
the Padres in their nal at-bat to take home
the victory.
The Padres had a chance to go into the
bottom of the seventh tied at 1, but a critical error paved the way to a pair of Irish
runs. Adrian Guardado opened the top of the
seventh with a single to left and moved to
second on a passed ball. Erik Ochoa followed with what was supposed to be a sacrice bunt, but it was so good he turned it into
an ineld single to put runners on the corners with no out. Following a strikeout,
Marco Salvetti came to the plate. Gianinno
warned his ineld to watch for a squeezebunt attempt and the Padres got just that.
But things still went awry for Serra. On
the rst pitch, Salvetti bunted a soft line
drive back to the pitcher, who had a bead on
making the catch.
But in his haste to double up the runner

OAKLAND Coach Steve Kerr may be

apprehensive, believing his Golden State
Warriors may need a mental and physical
break before the playoffs start more than
chasing the record for most wins in a season.
His young stars have no such doubts.
With a once-in-a-lifetime chance to set a
record with 73 wins by sweeping the final
three games, they want to seize the opportunity.
Everything is gravy at this point with
coach Kerr, forward Draymond Green said.
All he wanted was the number one seed.
For a lot of guys in the
locker room, its not
gravy. We put ourselves
in a position all year. ...
To get this far and kind
of just tank it and say
never mind? Face it,
well probably never get
to this point again.
Thats why its only
Draymond
been done one time. I
Green
think most guys in the
locker room are all in.
The Warriors (70-9) joined the 1995-96
Chicago Bulls as the only teams in NBA
history to win 70 games in a season by
beating San Antonio 112-101 on Thursday
night to secure home-court advantage
throughout the playoffs.
To break the mark of 72 that Michael
Jordan and the Bulls set 20 years ago, the
Warriors must sweep a weekend road trip to
Memphis and San Antonio and then beat
the Grizzlies again in the season finale
next Wednesday night at home.
With three games left and 73 still there,
its obviously a lot to play for, star
Stephen Curry said.
The game against the Spurs figures to be
the toughest. The Warriors have lost 33

Crawfords shot Oakland slips

beats L.A. in 10th past Mariners

SAN FRANCISCO Ross Stripling of

the Dodgers was pulled with a no-hitter in
progress after 7 1-3 innings during his
major league debut, and Los Angeles lost to
the San Francisco Giants 3-2 in the 10th on
a rainy Friday night.

gery. He was trying to become the first

pitcher since Bumpus Jones in 1892 to
throw a no-hitter in his big league debut.
Stripling struck out four and walked four.
Chris Hatcher relieved and Trevor Brown
greeted him with a tying, two-run homer.
Moments later, Roberts was ejected following a quick confrontation between
Hatcher and plate umpire Jeff Kellogg after a
close pitch.
The homers by Crawford and Brown were
the Giants only hits.
Talk about a tough no-decision for
Stripling to take. Roberts said before the
game he met the pitchers parents earlier in
the day at the team hotel.
Stripling, a 2012 fifth-round draft pick,
capitalized on a trio of defensive gems.

A look at Jackie Robinson

reveals a complicated life
By David Bauder
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK PBS documentary on the

life of Jackie Robinson gets most interesting when the gloves and bats are put away
for good.
The two-part film directed by Ken Burns,
Sarah Burns and David McMahon airs
Monday and Tuesday at 9 p.m. EDT on most
PBS stations. The first part details
Robinsons early life and his baseball
career, when he became
the first black player in
Major League Baseball in
1947. The second part is
more complex, showing
Robinson navigating a
civil rights era that he
helped put in motion.
Burns team was nudged
into making Jackie
Jackie
Robinson by Jackies
Robinson
93-year-old
widow
Rachel. They had gotten
to know each other when Burns made his
documentary series on baseball, which aired
in 1994. She wanted Burns to make a film
solely on Robinson but he didnt have time,
and two attempts with other directors didnt
work out.
Finally, Burns, his daughter and son-inlaw found time, although he gently reminded her that you cant fire me.
You can tell in the moments that shes on
(screen) that she wants you to understand
how complicated this was, that it wasnt
just this simple mythology that we have,
he said.
The film illustrates how pressure had been
building to integrate baseball, particularly
after blacks served with distinction in World
War II. Robinson was urged to turn the other
cheek when he endured taunts and insults,
and this took effort it wasnt in
Robinsons nature.
They cast doubt on a moment that has
been immortalized with a statue in
Brooklyn. Early in Robinsons rookie year,
teammate Pee Wee Reese supposedly put his
arm around Robinson to signal acceptance
by a white player who grew up in Kentucky.
But there are real questions about whether
this happened at all. It would have required
Reese, a shortstop, to cross the field to
Robinson, who played first base. There was
no mention of it in newspaper accounts of
the game in Cincinnati when it supposedly

took place. Rachel Robinson had urged a

different statue depicting the two players
shaking hands. Robinson himself indicated
in an autobiography that something like it
had happened but a year later, when he
played second base.
Burns also detailed the supposed embrace
in his 1994 documentary series.
Its white people wanting to have skin in
this game, Burns said. We want to feel
that we were good enough and forwardthinking enough. Its a good story, but its
mythology.
After being traded to the New York Giants
in 1957, Robinson retired rather than play
for the Dodgers hated rivals. He became an
executive at Chock Full O Nuts, and active
in civil rights.
His post-baseball public life was complicated. As the film states at the opening of
the second night, Americans would see the
real Jackie Robinson, and they would not
always like him.
Robinson was a Republican, a member of
the party of Lincoln, and supported Richard
Nixon in the 1960 election against John F.
Kennedy. During the campaign, he urged
Nixon to reach out to the Rev. Martin Luther
King Jr. when the minister was jailed.
Nixon didnt, but Kennedy did, and narrowly
won the election with newfound black support.
After Democrat Lyndon B. Johnson
signed civil rights legislation, Robinson
supported him in 1964 and urged other
blacks to do the same. He was essentially
there at the birth of the Republicans strategy of appealing to Southern whites, and
Nixon snubbed him after he was elected
president in 1968.
Although he pushed for civil rights
progress and held fundraisers at his
Connecticut home, Robinson worked for a
Republican in New York Gov. Nelson
Rockefeller. He clashed with Malcolm X and
more militant black activists. Twenty years
after he broke baseballs color barrier, some
blacks called him an Uncle Tom.
All along, the Robinsons dealt with the
difficulties of being parents in the 1960s.
Jackie Robinson Jr. returned from Vietnam
with a drug addiction that he struggled for
years to beat, and just as it seemed he had,
he died in a car accident.
Robinson threw out the first pitch at the
1972 World Series, and spoke out on the
need for baseball to hire a black manager.
He died of a heart attack shortly thereafter at

Pacquiao back in ring

with familiar opponent
By Tim Dahlberg
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LAS VEGAS He returns to a familiar place,

with an equally familiar opponent. Manny
Pacquiao is taking no chances when he meets
Timothy Bradley in what could be the last fight
of his remarkable career.
Theres chatter in the background about a
possible rematch with Floyd Mayweather Jr.,
though that appears very unlikely. Their hugely hyped fight last May was a dud, and
Mayweather has shown no interest at least
publicly in changing his mind about retirement.
Pacquiao could be headed there himself, even
if he beats Bradley in the rubber match of their
series. Hes running for the Senate in the
Philippines, a job that takes far more time than
his current position of congressman in his
native country, and polls make him a favorite
in next months election.
Pacquiao might solidify his position in the
polls with a win over Bradley in Saturday
nights welterweight fight at the MGM Grand,
where he met Mayweather last May. Everyone
loves a winner, though Pacquiao is already
beloved by most people in the Philippines as
the biggest sports hero the country has ever
had.
Indeed, Bradley said he would be in
Pacquiaos corner if he had a vote.
Hes shown over and over that he is for the
people and by the people and that hes a man of
his word, Bradley said. Hes always shown
that character and that integrity and I think hes
the right man for the job.
Pacquiao has waffled about whether this is
his last fight, saying he still loves boxing but
his family wants him to retire. Trainer Freddie
Roach said he believes Pacquiao has benefited
from a years rest after the Mayweather fight
and can go on at the age of 37, even though he
hasnt scored a knockout since 2009.

He hasnt slowed down at all, Roach said.

He still has a couple fights left in him.
Pacquiao weighed in Friday afternoon at 145
1/2 pounds to 146 1/2 for Bradley. The welterweight limit is 147 pounds.
Pacquiao is guaranteed $7 million a far cry
from the $100 million or so he got to fight
Mayweather to meet Bradley again in a payper-view fight that is struggling to get noticed.
With good reason, because theres still a hangover from the Mayweather fight and he and
Bradley have already fought 24 mostly nondescript rounds.
He will be remembered as one of the best
fighters who ever put on the gloves, Bradley
said. But Im a different fighter than I was in
the first two fights.
Bradley won the first of those fights on a
highly controversial decision, then faded in
the later rounds to lose the second bout. He
says he is rejuvenated under new trainer Teddy
Atlas, the longtime ESPN broadcaster who he
convinced to return to boxing to train him.
Having Teddy is like having a cheat sheet.
He analyzes fights, Bradley said. This fight
will be fought differently. Im going to be a lot
smarter than I was the first two fights.
Pacquiao is a 2-1 favorite in his return to the
ring, which comes after shoulder surgery and a
long rest in the Philippines. The winner of
titles in eight weight classes the first one
coming 17 years ago at 112 pounds he hasnt had a knockout since 2009 though he was
on the receiving end of one when he lost to
Juan Manuel Marquez.
I feel its good that I had a long layoff, said
Pacquiao, who began his pro career as a 16year-old in 1995 in the Philippines. It makes
me hungry again, makes me fresher.
Not feeling quite as good is promoter Bob
Arum, who has struggled to sell the fight. There
were tickets widely available in the days leading up to the bout, and pay-per-view projections have been scaled down.

THE TRUTH ABOUT "DISCOUNT" DENTAL IMPLANTS!

The old adage If it's too good to be true, it probably is applies to dentistry
too. When looking for tooth replacement options, do not fall victim to misleading marketing tactics. Do your research, ask the right questions, and know
what you are getting. Its a lifetime investment and shouldnt be taken lightly.
If you are researching dental implants you have seen the ads for $1895 complete
or $4000 OFF! Great deal right, NOT SO FAST chances are you are getting exactly
what you paid for, and not what an educated consumer would want! And it's not
being done by an Implant specialist ( there is no such designation sanctioned by
the dental board in California)!
Such special fees do not correlate with cost of highly trained professionals
and materials for a level of precision and quality that implant supported
crowns require. Here is the typical range costs to replace a single missing tooth:
Implant placement related costs to the dentist:
Dental Implant (reputable companies with well researched implants): $400 to $450
Healing abutment (a temporary extension that sits on the implant): $40 to $50
Surgical guide (a stent guiding accurate implant placement): $50 to $150
Drills (series of drills in various diameters necessary to prepare the bone for
implant placement): $50-$100.
Crown related costs to the dentist:
Impression post, Implant analog, Permanent abutment, abutment screw, Permanent Crown (made by a high quality USA lab ,Temporary Abutment, custom
Temporary Crown.
As you can see, these costs to the dentist amount to $1,360 - $1,950 just for the
cost of HIGH QUALITY materials. This does not include the impression
materials, accessory materials, advertising multiple appointments, personnel and
administrative costs, and a reasonable return to the dentist.

WARRIORS

maybe a break mentally will do them some good, Kerr said.

On the other hand, Im pretty sure were not going to be in
this position again next year. You cant keep winning at
this level. Its a very unique situation.

Continued from page 11

USA TODAY SPORTS

Golden State guard Klay Thompson has no notion of sitting

out any of the Warriors final three games.Im only 26. When
Im 36 Ill be looking to rest more.

Antonio, last winning on Feb. 14, 1997, when Tim Duncan

was still in college. They did win one of three games there
in the playoffs in 2013, but lost in their only trip to San
Antonio earlier this season.
Golden State will need to win there again to have a chance
at setting the record.
Kerr asked his players a few weeks ago if 73 wins was
important to them. When most said yes, he made a pact with
young stars like Curry, Green, Klay Thompson and Harrison
Barnes that he would not force them to sit as long as they
were honest about their health.
I want to finish out these last three games, Thompson
said. I pride myself on playing every game. Im still young
in my career. Im only 26. When Im 36 Ill be looking to
rest more.
Kerr said he would discuss the choice again with his
coaches and players Friday on the plane ride to Memphis.
He has given time off recently to veterans like center
Andrew Bogut and guard Shaun Livingston. Other players
like sixth man Andre Iguodala and backup center Festus
Ezeli have gotten time off because of injuries.
But no one on the young core has gotten a game off since
Curry missed a game with a sprained ankle on March 1.
Im not sure they actually need a rest physically. But

Kerr knows well what the Warriors have accomplished,

having played all 82 games as a key reserve on the Bulls
team that set the mark. He has noted the parallels of the toll
the 82-game grind takes late in a season and knows that
what his Warriors team is aiming to do is even harder than
what Chicago did in breaking the mark of 69 wins set by the
Los Angeles Lakers in 1971-72.
In 96 we had to get to 70, Kerr said. We have to get to
73. When youre talking about an 82-game season, three
games is huge. This is a monumental task if thats what
were calling it. Yes, Im kind of confused with how we
should approach it.
Green and Curry have been the most vocal players about
wanting the record, while some others like Iguodala and
Bogut have downplayed its importance. Green made a point
this week of telling his teammates that they should feel free
to sit out a game if they feel like they need a rest and not feel
as if they are letting teammates down.
The goal is to win a championship, and nobody should
sacrifice that for anything in this regular season, Curry
said. If youre able to play, and feel like you can go out
there and give what you got, and continue to build momentum into the playoffs, then well do it. I think thats kind of
the majority.

NBA brief
Kings saying farewell to
longtime arena, one special place
SACRAMENTO This time it truly will be goodbye for the
Sacramento Kings and their longtime arena.
After two previous possible farewells when the Kings were
contemplating a move out of Sacramento, the team will play its
final home game at the arena it has called home since 1988 on
Saturday night against Oklahoma City.
Making this one far less emotional than the ones at the end of
the 2011 and 2013 seasons is the fact that Kings are only moving to a fancy new downtown arena instead of out of Californias
capital city entirely.
But there will still likely be some tears and high emotions
when the doors shut for the final time. The NBAs smallest arena
was also once its loudest when sellout crowds came out nightly to
cheer one of the leagues most entertaining teams in the early
2000s.
The building formerly known as Arco Arena produced sellout
streaks of 497 and 354 straight games and provided one of the
most notorious home-court advantages in the league. Fans
clanked cowbells so loud that opposing coaches and players
pleaded to have the noisemakers banned.
The venue has changed names to Power Balance Pavilion and
the current Sleep Train Arena, but the constant was the proximity
of the fans to the court, creating an intimidating environment.
In a five-year span starting in 1999-2000, the Kings had the
best home record in the league at 168-37. With unselfish teams
led by Chris Webber, Mike Bibby, Vlade Divac and Peja
Stojakovic, Sacramento was one of the best shows in the NBA.
The Kings made eight straight playoff trips starting in 199899, losing an overtime game at home in Game 7 of the Western
Conference finals to the Lakers in 2002.

THE DAILY JOURNAL

headed home as Serras Tyler Villaroman

elded the ball and red it to the plate.
Ochoa slid just under the tag of Serra catcher Ricardo Barraza on a bang-bang play at
the plate for the rst run of the game.
It was a huge run, considering how SHC
starting pitcher Justin Choy was throwing.
A lanky lefty with a high leg kick and an
assortment of off-speed pitches, he stuff
and his penchant for waiting a long time
between pitches had the Serra bats antsy
at the plate.
The Padres actually had a chance to get to
Choy early, leaving the bases loaded in the
third. But other than that, the Padres managed to get a runner as far as third base only
two other times in the game.
We knew exactly what we were getting
(in Choy), Gianinno said. We just didnt
execute.

When Choy got Serras Angelo Bortolin

to ground out to second base for the third
time in the game in the sixth inning, SHC
manager Brian Morgan, surprisingly, took
Choy out of the game after throwing 76
pitches.
Bad move. Serras Ryan Sambel greeted
reliever Marty Cole with a towering home
run to left eld on a 0-1 pitch to tie the game
at 1.
Gianinno understood the move.
Hes playing the right-right matchup,
Gianinno said of Morgans move. We didnt have much success (against Choy).
Despite seizing momentum, the Irish
took it right back in the top of the seventh
as they rallied for the win.
They went back out and Sacred Heart
answered, Gianinno said. Well make
some adjustments and get back at it.

runner Matt Palomino had crossed the plate

with the go-ahead run and Ochoa going to
third.
Ochoa would give the Irish a big insurance run when he scored on an Aedan LearyVallejo opposite-eld single to right to
give SHC a 3-1 advantage.
Details matter, Gianinno said. There
are a few moments in a WCAL game that can
make a difference.
It was a tough ending for Von Tobel, who
was brilliant for six innings. Until that
nal inning, he held the Irish to a single
unearned run on three hits, working quickly

and keeping his defense on their toes.

Through six innings, he had thrown only
60 pitches.
[Von Tobel] battled, Gianinno said.
After allowing only two runners as far as
second base in the rst four innings, SHC
nally got to Von Tobel, with a Serra error
opening the door. Ochoa led off the fth and
hit a smash right to the Serra third baseman,
who couldnt handle the hot shot and it went
into shallow left eld.
After a confusing play in which SHC had
two runners standing on rst base before it
was ruled the batter was out for the rst of
the inning, Salvetti followed with a sacrice bunt to move Ochoa into scoring position and bring up leadoff hitter LearyVallejo. On a 0-1 pitch, Leary-Vallejo hit a
high, slow chopper up the middle into shallow center eld. Ochoa rounded third and

Center fielder Joc Pederson sprinted hard
to his left to make a diving, backhanded
catch on Denard Spans fly to start the
fourth.
Stripling went 3-6 with a 3.66 ERA for
Double-A Tulsa and Class A Great Lakes last
year. He threw a no-hitter for Texas A&M
against San Diego State in May 2012.
A day after the Giants rallied for a 12-6
win on 17 hits, Stripling silenced San

Arrests provide new

links between Paris
and Brussels attacks
By Raf Casert
and John-Thor Dahlburg
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

REUTERS

Pope Francis leads the weekly audience in Saint Peters Square at the Vatican .

Pope Francis emphasizes flexibility

over rules for modern day families
By Nicole Winfield
and Rachel Zoll
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

VATICAN CITY In a sweeping

document on family life that
opened a door to divorced and
civilly remarried Catholics, Pope
Francis insisted Friday that church
doctrine cannot be the final word
in answering tricky moral questions and that Catholics must be
guided by their own informed consciences.
Francis didnt create a churchwide admission to Communion for
divorced and civilly remarried

Catholics as some progressives

had wanted. But in the document
The Joy of Love, he suggested
that bishops and priests could do
so on a case-by-case basis in what
could become a significant development in church practice.
The pope also strongly upheld
the churchs opposition to samesex marriage.
The 256-page document, two
years in the making and the product of an unprecedented canvassing of ordinary Catholics and senior churchmen, is a plea from
Francis heart for the church to
stop hectoring Catholics about
how to live their lives and instead

find the redeeming value in their

imperfect relationships.
I understand those who prefer a
more rigorous pastoral care which
leaves no room for confusion, he
wrote. But I sincerely believe
that Jesus wants a church attentive
to the goodness which the Holy
Spirit sows in the midst of human
weakness.
The document is cleverly worded: Francis selectively cited his
predecessors, making clear he is
working within their tradition but
omitting the sometimes harsh,
definitive language that is an
anathema to his mercy over moral
priorities.

BRUSSELS The arrest Friday

of five men suspected of links to
the Brussels bombings, including
the last known fugitive in last
years Paris attacks, raised new
questions about the extent of the
Islamic State cell believed to have
carried out the intertwined attacks
that left 162 people dead in two
countries.
After weeks of speculation
about a mysterious man in the
hat who escaped the Brussels
attacks while three suicide
bombers blew themselves up,
authorities were checking whether
that man was indeed Mohamed
Abrini, the last identified suspect
at large from the Paris attacks
until Friday. Another man arrested
in a series of raids, identified as
Osama K. by Belgian authorities,
was linked to the Nov. 13 Paris
attacks by French authorities on
March 22, hours after the Belgium
attacks.
Abrini and Osama K. are now
suspected of playing a role in the

two
biggest
attacks carried
out by the
Islamic State
group in Europe
over the past
year,
killing
130 people in
Paris and 32 in
Brus s el s .

ties
renewed
their call to arrest an armed and
dangerous Abrini within hours of
the Brussels attacks.
We are investigating if Abrini
can be positively identified as the
third person present during the
attacks in Brussels National
Airport, the so called man in the
hat, said prosecutor Eric Van der
Sypt.
The man walked away from the
airport attack, where two suicide
bombers blew themselves up,
killing 16. Authorities detained
four other men on Friday, including Osama K., suspected of having contact with the suicide
bomber who blew himself up in
the Brussels subway the same
morning, killing another 16.

ed the opportunity to have a more detailed
discussion during an upcoming session
Thursday, April 21.
Board Vice President Chelsea Bonini
said the board is uncertain whether it
would pursue an extension, and more
information is necessary before moving
ahead.
That will inform whether we decide to
do it at all, or when, she said, of the discussion during the board meeting later this
month.
Bonini added she considered the parcel
tax an integral revenue stream for the district, and said she would favor the board
discussing an extension.
It funds very important district functions, she said. I cant say anything
about whether we will do it. But I think its
important. We have to carefully consider
it.
Trustee Audrey Ng expressed a similar
sentiment.

JORDAN
Continued from page 1
But as he prepares to step down from his
position at the helm of Tri-School
Productions, which serves students from
Serra, Mercy and Notre Dame high schools,
he is hopeful his legacy for attention to
detail will live on.
Jordan, who is also the musical director at
Serra, encouraged the person who will ultimately assume his role to take no shortcuts
in their endless pursuit of perfection.
Being precise matters, said Jordan. Go
the extra mile to ensure it is a quality production.
The three schools have come together
under the Tri-School Productions umbrella
since 1990 to produce musical showcases,
which have launched the careers of some
students who have ultimately gone on to
perform professionally on Broadway, or
other notable stages across the nation, said
Jordan.
Alumni of Jordan surprised him with a

LOCAL

THE DAILY JOURNAL

Measure A generates roughly $7 million

annually for the district, which Ng characterized as a considerable amount, and
said the tax revenue finances a variety of
district necessities.
But she too acknowledged she felt it was
too early to discuss specifics of a possible
tax extension.
Right now it is really early, and we
have not made any decisions, she said.
Parcel tax revenue supplements budget
spending on teachers, enrichment programs, library maintenance and other support programs.
The district has had a parcel tax in place
since 1991, according to the report, and
was most recently extended when voters
approved Measure A for seven years in
2010. Voters agreed to hike the existing
tax by $96 when Measure A was approved.
If the district wanted to wait to float a
ballot measure closer to the taxs expiration date next year, polling should occur
this fall or winter, with an opportunity to
put the tax on the March, May or June ballots, according to the presentation.
Officials have struggled in recent years
to rally support for tax measures, as voters
rejected Measure P in 2013, a bond which

would have paid to build more classrooms

to accommodate a growing student population. Following an extensive public outreach campaign, the district was successful
in the most recent election gathering
voter support for Measure X, a bond measure also designed to accommodate campus
overcrowding.
When Measure A was approved, it succeeded by the narrowest of margins, as 67
percent of favored the initiative, just
above the two-thirds voter support necessary for it to pass.
Should officials ultimately decide to put
the tax on an upcoming ballot, the board
would need to grant approval nearly three
months in advance of the election.
In other business during the March meeting, the board announced the intention to
lay off 34 full-time classified employees,
whose salaries are paid through contributions by the districts PTA.
The positions, a majority of which are
educational assistants and aides, cannot be
funded until the community organization
knows how much money will be donated to
the district this year.
At this time the PTA has not yet determined funds or budget items for the fol-

lowing year including whether or not the

organization will continue funding these
positions, said a district report. Because
of this uncertainty, and in order to meet
the state mandated timelines for laying off
classified employees, we must recommend
reducing classified PTA funded positions.
Roughly 30 of the jeopardized positions
are focused on classroom and educational
support, and many of the rest are those
who work as office assistants, according
to the district report.
The district is required to notify employees two months in advance that they stand
to be laid off, but the workers could be
brought back, should sufficient money be
made available through the districts PTA.
Similar layoff notices have been
approved in years prior, and many of the
threatened employees were again hired
when the PTA made its contribution to the
district.
Last year, in a similar action, the district
noticed roughly 25 similar employees
they faced losing their job before the PTA
made its annual contribution.
Typically the districts PTA contributes
roughly $2 million for education support
programs annually.

tribute following the final performance of

the spring production Joseph and the
Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, to honor
the popular educator.
Jordan, 62, said during the tribute many
students expressed appreciation for the way
he had changed their lives through building
their passion for music and performance
a sentiment he considered mutual.
They changed my life, and made me a
more complete person, Jordan said, of the
students he has taught over the years.
Though he will remain for a limited time
in his capacity at Serra High School, where
he has worked for 39 years, Jordan is beginning to look toward retirement.
Reflecting on his career, Jordan said he is
amazed by the way the music and production
departments have changed over his nearly
four decades in the industry.
He has watched production capabilities
grow from a skeleton staff to an advanced
and comprehensive department which can
offer students an opportunity to develop
their skills on the stage, but also behind the
scenes.
The variety of talents required to produce a

quality performance, said Jordan, has

become a favorite component of his work.
Musical productions exist in the intersection of singing, acting, lighting, sound
management and a variety of other components that require a high degree of coordination, and tremendous attention to detail,
which speaks to Jordans passion for precision, he said.
Thats the reason I fell in love with musical theater, is that it combines all art forms
into one, he said.
Jordan said the process of managing so
many contributing factors which rely heavily on one another for a quality performance
can be taxing, but ultimately satisfying.
Its a stressful thing making it all come
together, he said. But by the time you get
to closing night, that is the reward, and you
are ready to do it again.
As he looks to the future of stepping away
from the world of artistic direction, and to
becoming an audience member of the productions, Jordan said he is prepared for a
potentially challenging transition.
Its going to be weird, he said, Its
going to be harder.

But Jordan credited the staff that has

developed at the various schools in providing him assurance that ultimately the program would succeed beyond his tenure.
I feel confident that it is going to be
OK, he said.
The Foster City resident who graduated
from Hillsdale High School said even
though he looks to the next chapter, he still
expects music to play a profound role in his
life.
A singer as well as guitar and trumpet
player, Jordan said he has appreciated the
ability to pursue music as a passion both
professionally and personally.
Musics role is that it is both my career
and my hobby, he said.
With music expected to preserve its significance in his life, Jordan said he anticipates his biggest adjustment will be no
longer playing such an integral role in the
production of performances.
I loved seeing these students when they
experience that opening night and got
applause, he said. Just the joy in their
faces. That is the best part, for them to feel
like they accomplished something.

Dress codes and

gender balance
By Kelly Song

Innovative
storytelling
liftsLouder
By Jocelyn Noveck
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Few actors, male or female, are better at portraying an innate sense of mystery than the great
French actress Isabelle Huppert. Her face seems
to hold dozens of expressions all at once. You
get the sense that theres always something
deeper underneath and that youll never really know all of it.
And so it should be little surprise that Huppert
is the most watchable and, yes, mysterious element of Louder Than Bombs, by Norwegian
director Joachim Trier even though her character is already dead. The film intimate and
often moving, yet ultimately too disjointed to

Skirts must be no shorter than mid-thigh.

Fingertip length. Slightly above the knee.
One credit cards length from your palm.
No matter how you say it, in how many
different languages and nuances, dress code
is all the same: An artificial boundary
mankind created to limit the amount of
expression we show through our choice of
clothing.
They say our body is
ours, to love ourselves
unconditionally and to
look past the perfect figures on the covers of
magazines. Those bodies arent real, they say.
You are worth more.
Yet everywhere I go, I
find someone who tells me to to cover my
shoulders or to pull my shorts lower,
telling me to put on a looser sweater
because it might distract the male gender if
I do not. Is my body really, truly mine?
Rape culture is a concept that has often
been paralleled to dress code if we set
the rules telling girls to be careful, rather
than telling the rest of society to cease
objectifying them, we are approaching the
issue the wrong way. If we follow this philosophy then dress code is, in effect,
encouraging rape culture; we tell the victim
to tightrope across the yellow strips of
caution tape, rather than telling those lurking in the shadows to step away.
Perhaps the most dramatic consequence
of dress code is the idea of an entitled sense
of gender balance; it places one gender
above the other, giving the slot of dominance to one group over another. And it
leaves those who fall behind in an impossible position, where they can never find
acceptance in a society that is ever-contradictory. In a world in which women are told
to embrace their image and accept their
bodies, they still face an equal amount of
commands telling them to do otherwise. If
they wear makeup they are accused of being
insecure, and when they do not, they are
lazy. When they show skin they are

Hitman goes to Paris in part 1 of a yearlong epic

By Lou Kesten
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Ah, the glamorous life of an international assassin. What other career gives you the
chance to hobnob with world leaders, models, fashion designers, chess masters and
other celebrities and then murder them?
Such is the lot of Agent 47, the protagonist of Hitman (Square Enix, for the
PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PC). Hes executed some difficult contracts over the years,
but now he may be facing his toughest
assignment yet: anchoring his publishers
ambitious experiment in episodic storytelling.
See, the Hitman you can purchase today
(for $15) is just the first chapter in a yearlong epic that will take our ruthless killer

all over the globe. Square says it will

release six more chapters ($10 apiece)
through the end of 2016; you can order the
whole package in advance for $60.
For now, you get a couple of tutorials and
one big, flamboyant assignment set in a
sprawling Parisian castle. Thats the setting
for a fashion show, a top-secret auction, a
fireworks display and heaven knows what
else, but 47 has two targets in particular:
designer Viktor Novikov and ex-model
Dahlia Margolis, the ringleaders of the
nefarious spy operation IAGO.
Agent 47 has a ridiculous arsenal of lethal
tools at his disposal. He can get up close

Judge grants Sheens ex-fiance

a temporary restraining order
By Anthony McCartney
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LOS ANGELES A judge on Friday granted Charlie Sheens ex-fiance a temporary

restraining order after she cited threats the
actor made toward her and two 2014 incidents of alleged domestic violence.
Superior Court Judge Alicia Blanco
approved the stay-away order Friday based
on Scottine Ross application stating she
was fearful of the actor because he purportedly threatened her life on an audio recording obtained by the celebrity website
RadarOnline.com.
Ross filing also stated Sheen kicked her
on the ground in January 2014 and choked
her to the point she almost lost consciousness a few months later.

Grief gets weird in

Vallees Demolition
By Lindsey Bahr
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

What if a young man who just lost his

young wife in a car accident experienced
none of the stages of grief? What if he felt
nothing? What if he, instead, started writing
letters to a vending machine company and
dismantling every object in sight?
Perhaps thats just a person coasting in
denial, but, to buy that, you would have to
believe that the person also had some sort
of humanity in the first place. In the case of
Davis Mitchell (Jake Gyllenhaal) in director
Jean-Marc Valles ambitious, flawed and
whimsically sinister Demolition- lets
just say thats not entirely clear. Davis, for
much of the movie, is like the Patrick
Bateman of widowers. He is incredibly
wealthy, cold, unfeeling and vaguely sociopathic. Instead of bodies, though, its
objects hes dissecting.
At first, its actually quite captivating as
you drift with Davis in the aftermath of his
wife Julias (Heather Lind) death. He was in
the car with her when it got broadsided. He
came out without a scratch. She died that
night.
He cant even muster up any emotion as
her grieving father (Chris Cooper) breaks
down. And then at the wake, instead of
socializing, he goes into a study to compose a letter to the vending machine company whose hospital unit failed to give him
the Peanut M&Ms he paid for. Its in this
handwritten complaint letter where Davis
starts to really dish about how he only
got this job at a $6 billion investment firm
because of his father-in-law, about his daily
routines in his magazine-ready glass and
steel cube of a house, about the time he lied
to a fellow passenger on the commuter train
about what he did for a living, and about
how he never really loved his wife.
Davis starts writing letters to the vending
machine company on a regular basis, and, in
his free time, decides to take everything
apart including, but not limited to, a fridge,
a bathroom stall, a bathroom light fixture
and a random house. Of course his life falls

apart with it. Subtlety is not what this

movie is going for.
Its quirky but also menacing and Valle
and Gyllenhaal find the dark humor in this
mans odd behavior. Davis might not be
someone who exists in the real world, but
Gyllenhaal wears his unconventionalities
well.
Weve seen this character type before in
slightly different iterations the man with
the wild look in his eyes who is just disconnected enough from reality, as though hes
the only living person who can see the truth
of our daily hypocrisies. Gyllenhaal elevates it, too, but that should be no surprise
at this point from one of our most talented
leading men.
Then the eccentric working class side
characters arrive Karen (Naomi Watts), a
customer service rep at the vending machine
company who was moved by his confessional letters, and her angst-ridden pre-teen
son Chris (Judah Lewis). Suddenly Davis is
finding solace in this single mom stoner
with a heart of gold and a young boy with
glam rock predilections, who is questioning
his gender and sexuality. Its a bit much for
something that had been so focused and
streamlined at first.
The movie is infinitely more interesting
when Davis is just an unredeemable
sociopath, but it turns out the story has a
different idea about that and things begin to
unravel. Cloying plot revelations aside, the
film is a stimulating step forward for Valle,
who, with Wild and Dallas Buyers Club,
has inadvertently become the go-to director
for actors craving that Oscar nomination.
Perhaps Demolition should have stuck
with its original premise until the bitter
end, or made Davis just a little more human
at the outset. As it stands, Demolition
doesnt quite come together, but its far from
a wreck.

release, is rated R by the Motion Picture

allows Ross, who performed in adult films

under the name Brett
Rossi, to record any conversations she has with
the actor.
There are no indications in the filing that
Sheen has sought to conCharlie Sheen tact Ross recently.
Los Angeles police
confirmed Wednesday theyre investigating
Sheen after receiving a criminal report last
week. They havent identified the alleged
victim or the exact nature of the investigation, which is being headed by detectives
from a unit that investigates serious stalking and criminal threats cases.
RadarOnline has said it was served with a
warrant seeking audio that is purportedly of
Sheen threatening to bury Ross, whose relationship with the actor ended in 2014. The
website has said it believes the warrant is
illegal.
Ross is suing Sheen, claiming he had sex
with her without disclosing he has HIV.

Once the job is done, you can ... wait for

You can also complete contracts on some
of the hundreds of people who have assembled in Paris for the fashion show. And you

Hitman obsessives will want to explore

though we want to know more about her
than we get, shes the most vibrant presence
onscreen.
Huppert plays Isabelle Reed, a celebrated
war photographer. Despite a career spent
flirting with danger in far-off locales, her
death has come in the most mundane of
places: On a road near her home in suburban
New York, in a car crash.
Isabelle has left three men behind to
grieve, all in crucial states of transition. Her
husband, Gene (a thoughtful Gabriel Byrne)
is an former film actor now teaching in the
local school. Her older son, Jonah (Jesse
Eisenberg) is a wunderkind university professor and new father, a responsibility he
seems highly ambivalent about (when, oh
when will Eisenberg play a sympathetic
character? Not here.) And her youngest,
Conrad (Devin Druid, touching), is just trying to get through high school, adolescence
and a painful first crush, not to mention
cope with the death of his mother.
The action, such as it is the film progresses in a decidedly non-linear fashion
begins three years after Isabelles death.
Gene is helping to organize a retrospective
of his wifes work, a project that will
involve the dredging up of some unpleasant
truths. Richard (David Strathairn), a dashing
former colleague of Isabelles, is writing an
article to accompany the show, and tells
Gene hell have to address the true cause of
Isabelles death, which was reported as an
accident.
Not to give away too much, but each man
in the film seems to be at a different place in

his understanding of or explanation for

the tragic event. And so we see different
scenarios of the crash unfold.
This multiple-perspectives technique is
one favored by Trier, whos making his
English-language debut here, throughout
the film (Eskil Vogt co-wrote the screenplay.) At one point, we see Gene, concerned
about Conrad, surreptitiously follow his
son from a park to a cafe to a cemetery, trying to figure out his behavior. Only later,
when we see the scene replayed from
Conrads perspective, do we understand what
the heck he was doing.
But what the heck is anyone doing in this
movie? One might say that every character
in this study of a family in disarray means to
do the right thing, but has a strange way of
showing it. Everyone misbehaves.
Eisenbergs Jonah is the first person we see
in the film, holding the sweet, tiny finger of
his newborn baby in the hospital, marveling over this new life. Moments later,
though, he runs into an old girlfriend and
lies, bald-faced (and hilariously), about the
reason hes in the hospital. Apparently hes
not quite comfortable with his new role as a
father.
In the end, though, blood runs thick; the
final tableau seeks to remind us that families
can survive an awful lot and remain intact.
Its not the most sophisticated or deepest
conclusion Trier could have reached, but his
storytelling techniques and that face of
Hupperts, which we could have used more of
have at least made the journey interesting.

A look inside the

new psychological
thriller Invitation
By Lindsey Bahr
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LOS ANGELES For the

movies, and Los Angelenos, the
Hollywood Hills are laced with
mythology. Those multi-million
dollar homes perched on twisty
cliffs that peer down on the endless
flatlands while the Hollywood
sign looms nearby are both signifiers of glamour and traumas past.
From the Hillside Strangler to the
Manson murders and even the
crushed aspirations of so many
dreamers, theres a pervasive
uneasiness up above the city.
Thats why director Karyn
Kusama (Girlfight, Jennifers
Body) knew it was the perfect
setting for her unnerving psychological thriller The Invitation
(out Friday in limited release),
which finds a small group of
estranged friends gathering in one
of those magazine-ready homes
for a night of expensive wine,
food and social disquiet.
The evening was never going to
be an easy one. Will (Logan
Marshall-Green), who used to live
there with his ex-wife Eden
(Tammy Blanchard), is returning
now with his new girlfriend Kira

(Emayatzy Corinealdi). But its

more than just two exes sharing
the same space again. There is
tragedy in their past, too. And
things get even more unsettling
as the evening goes on, between
the serene calm of Eden and new
partner David (Michiel Huisman)
talking about spiritual journeys,
and a few weirdos who no one really knows.
As Will says in a moment of distress, something doesnt feel
safe here.
Screenwriter and producer Phil
Hay noted that he and his cowriter Matt Manfredi wanted to
explore the true nightmare of
what it would be like to be completely alienated from someone
you loved. They look like the person and they sound like the person but there is something that
doesnt feel like the person.
Hay, who is married to Kusama,
said one of their touchstones was
Invasion

with old friends or lovers, there

Angeles attracts.
Theres a promise that LA
seems to have that you can reinvent yourself. You can start over,
Manfredi said. Theres something really dark behind that
because it doesnt always play out
the way you expect it to and people can take advantage of that and
a lot of that has played out in the
hills before.
The threat, or promise, of new
age religions and cults in particular ignites the imagination of
some of the party guests as they
wonder what Edens intentions
are.

Trippy Quantum Break

marred by tiresome play
By Lou Kesten
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

What would you do if you could control

time? Visit the future and grab an iPhone 50?
Kill a despised historical figure while hes
still a baby? Carve out some time to catch
up on your Netflix queue?
Will Joyce, the genius who discovers time
travel in Quantum Break (Microsoft, for
the Xbox One, PC, $59.95), wants none of
that. Hes the kind of quirky brainiac who
just wants to unlock the secrets of the universe. Unfortunately, his tinkering has
busted the time-space continuum so badly
the whole things about to collapse.
You play Jack Joyce, Wills brother,
whos dragged into the whole mess by an old
friend named Paul Serene. Paul is head of
Monarch Solutions, one of those mysterious corporations thats so powerful it needs
its own military and he has his own ideas
about how to harness time travel. Is Paul
insane? Can Will be saved? Its up to Jack to
find the answers.
Fortunately, hes the kind of average-Joe
who turns out to be ridiculously skilled with
firearms. Unfortunately, saving the world is
going to require him to kill hundreds of people who made the mistake of signing on
with Monarch. So what could have been a
brain-bending time-travel romp turns into
yet another trigger-happy orgy of violence.
Sigh.
At least Jacks exposure to Wills device
gives him some unique talents. He can dodge
bullets, freeze enemies and unleash time
blasts that hurl opponents into the air.

Occasionally, Jack needs to use his powers

to solve rudimentary puzzles like, say,
reversing time to restore a broken bridge.
Whats most distinctive about Quantum
Break is the way its presented. Most of the
time youre controlling Jack in computergenerated scenarios, like you would in a typical video game. But on occasion youre
invited to put down your controller and
watch what Paul and the other characters are
up to.
These non-interactive episodes are shot
on full-motion video, with human actors in
real-life settings. The quality is decent
about on the level of an episode of 24
and the cast has some familiar faces, like
The Wire veterans Aiden Gillen and Lance
Reddick. Jack is played by Shawn Ashmore,
best known for The Following, and its a
little disconcerting to switch from watching
the real actor to controlling a computerized
version.
The combination feels like binge-watching a season of a middling TV thriller,
except you have some control over the outcome. The video segments you see are determined by some of the choices you make ingame, enough so that youll want to play
through Quantum Break a few times to see
all the variations.
That makes it all the more disappointing
when the drama wraps with an exasperating
firefight that depends more on old-fashioned ballistics than trippy quantum
physics. Quantum Break pulls off some
neat tricks with its overall presentation I
just wish its separate elements were cleverer. Two stars out of four.

when she was starting out in LA.
When she realized it, she had
to get out of the cult. But I
thought it was so interesting. It
was something that was very
helpful and reassuring to her. She
was new to LA and then all of a
sudden shes following everything that theyre doing,
Corinealdi said.
Its built into LA, added
Marshall-Green. Theyre all
dreamers who are no longer

dream for them.
Kusama, who filmed the entire
movie in a real house off of

Mulholland Drive for a tiny $1

million budget, hopes ultimately
that audiences are open to the
mystery of The Invitation.
I love the idea of creating a
movie experience where you have
to keep up with it and investigate
and engage with it while youre
watching, she said. I wanted to
get back to a really engaged
movie-going experience.
The film does just that, too,
keeping you on edge about what
exactly is going on, who is overreacting and who is underreacting.
There is that world of fascination about what is happening up
there on Mulholland Drive,
Corinealdi said. Theyre always
wondering, the people below.

HOUSING
Continued from page 1
to a large park and the private Nueva
School along 25th Avenue, said San
Mateo Housing Manager Sandy
Council.
This is a really special situation
because we have always supported
these kinds of projects, but finding an
available site is really difficult. To
obtain a 1-acre site thats essentially
undeveloped and its really a great
transit-oriented location; its just the
sort of project we want to see,
Council said.
As one of the largest transit-oriented
developments in the state, gone are
the former days of betting on the horse
races with Bay Meadows now known
as a bustling mixed-use site near the
Caltrain corridor. Now, the former
practice track site is home to a Whole
Foods, Kaiser Permanente medical center, Franklin Templeton Investments,
San Mateos police station and more.
The track sites first of several large
office buildings is underway with
SurveyMonkey already having agreed
to lease the site.

Mixing in affordability
With hundreds of housing units
already completed or under construction at Bay Meadows, San Mateos 1acre project will not be the first belowmarket rate units at the development,
Council said.
The citys voter-approved Measure P
outlines an inclusionary zoning policy allowing it to require developers to
incorporate below-market rate units
within a new development.
Five completed communities at Bay
Meadows are offering 42 affordable
units 31 are homes owned by those
making up to 120 percent of the areas
median income and 11 of the units are
rentals for those making up to 80 percent. Another 30 units are currently
under construction with 23 slated to be
rentals for those making up to 80 percent and seven units set aside for
homebuyers making up to 120 percent
of the areas median income, according
to Council.
But housing experts project thou-

sands of more units are needed before

the county can begin catching up with
the influx of jobs created over the past
few years.
Still, after completion, San Mateos
project at Bay Meadows will have
about 10 percent to 15 percent of the
housing units set aside as affordable,
Council said.
The nice thing about Bay Meadows
is having the 10 percent spread
around, plus having 1 acre where we
concentrate on the lower income, its
such an inclusive policy. Theres a little bit of something for everybody,
Council said.
But San Mateo is somewhat unique in
being able to require developers to
contribute below-market rate units for
rental buildings as state appellate
court cases have dismantled others
ability to do so.
Between developments not keeping
up with the astronomical job growth
in the Bay Area and affordable housing
tools stripped from municipalities;
nearly all in San Mateo acknowledge
theres a crisis at hand.

Considering more
immediate action
In response, the City Council
formed a housing task force last
September that compiled a report
highlighting that few can afford to buy
a home and how many landlords have
responded by increasing what theyre
asking for rent nearly 40 percent to 60
percent over the last four years.
One thing both real estate professionals and affordable housing advocates can agree on is the need to
expand the housing stock. But while
said North Korean officials described
the 208 boxes of bones they released
to the U.S. military in 1993 as body
parts taken from a holding area at the
entrance to the Suan camp.
The remains were shipped to a
Defense Department lab in Hawaii that
was to account for all Americans held

excited by the Bay Meadows project, it

also highlights how long the development process can take. The affordable
complex will take another three years
before being completed nearly two
decades since the entire development
was first proposed.
In the meantime, many are advocating for more immediate measures.
The City Council met last week to
consider a 90-day emergency rent control and just cause eviction ordinance
prompting hundreds to pack City Hall.
With the task force and council
unable to achieve consensus, officials
opted to reconvene Monday, April 11,
to reconsider a temporary ordinance
outlining a relocation assistance program. Landlords who raise rents by
more than 10 percent within a 12month period for tenants who have not
violated the terms of their lease, could
be required to pay the equivalent of six
months of the areas median rent.
Concerned the council will fail to
pass any meaningful tenant protection
measures, the nonprofit Faith in
Action Bay Area is planning a ballot
initiative asking November voters to
support just cause evictions and keeping rent increases paired with inflation
for properties constructed before
1995.
As the citys housing manager who
helped oversee the task force, Council
agreed she expects another large crowd
to turn out at Mondays meeting and
while pleased the Bay Meadows project will provide opportunities for up to
68 families, said she recognizes the
magnitude of the problem.
We know from experience [these
units] will be much in demand and its
not going to solve the problem, but
its a tool in the citys tool kit. You do
every little thing you can and everything makes a difference, even if its
small, Council said. Definitely we
need to address the supply side of housing and that takes time and it doesnt
help in the short term. So now, our
challenge is to figure out what we can
do in the short term for tenants now.
The City Council meets 6 p. m.

concludes that the Crossing Hotel Project is identical to the
hotel assumed in the 2015 SEIR analysis; there are no substantial changes to this proposed project; there have been no
substantial changes in the circumstances under which the
project will be undertaken; and there is no new information
that would result in new or substantially more severe impacts
of the hotel project, or that new mitigation measures or alternatives are warranted. Accordingly, under section 15162 of
the CEQA Guidelines this project, which further relies on the
cited environmental documents determine that no further CEQA analysis is required.
