Burlingame pool to close for January


High school district says facility has much-need deferred maintenance
By Angela Swartz
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

With the Burlingame Aquatic Center


set to close for the month of January
for maintenance, members are trying
to figure out where to swim while the
Olympic size pool owned by the San
Mateo Union High School District
isnt operating.
The Burlingame Aquatic Club, which
operates the pool for everything from
water aerobics to swim lessons to lap
swimming, has found some temporary

relocations for programs during the


closure from Jan. 1, 2015, to Jan. 31,
2015. Some groups will be able to use
the College of San Mateo pool, while
others will go to the Mercy High
School Burlingame pool during maintenance and repairs to the facility,
including the locker rooms, deck and
pool. The closure is needed to complete much-needed deferred maintenance, said Sheri Costa-Batis, communications manager for the district.
During the closure, age group swimming and water polo will have prac-

tices at College of San Mateo and


Mercy. The coaches are also working
on
setting
up
additional
scrimmages/practices with local
teams. Swim lessons will run an alternative schedule for the month of
January at Mercy. All lap swimming
conducted through BAC will be suspended. Masters swimming will have
an adjusted practice schedule held at
the CSM. During the January closure,

only some adult fitness classes conducted through BAC can be held. The A boy practices swimming during an afternoon at the

By Angela Swartz
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Bubbles, whiskey and special


holiday beverages are top picks
for this New Years Eve on the
Peninsula.
At Bitters + Bottles at 240 Grand
Ave. in South San Francisco, craft
American whiskey has been popular, said its co-owner and co-CEO
Meredith Lantz. The shop allows
customers to create their own perfect home bars with the proper
spirits, mixers, glassware and bar-

ware and opened in fall 2013.


This time of year people do a
lot of gifting, she said. The craft
American whiskey is selling well.
Cocktail supplies are selling well
like special bitters for that fantastic old-fashioned. Our consumer
has been trying unique local gins
and special cocktails.
Unique liquors like elderflower
and ginger are also in demand, she
said.
For others, its about finding a
special drink over the holiday season, said Bitters + Bottles co-

owner and co-CEO Joe Barwin.


Customers are asking, What
do you have that I cant find at
BevMo!?
At the new Bacchus Wine Shop
thats located within Pape Meat
Co. in Millbrae, its owner
Quinton Jay said its been all
about the bubbles for their customers looking for New Years
alcohol. Specifically, Champagne

Hidden camera found inside grocery restroom Police reports


South San Francisco man cited after two-month investigation

BAY CITY NEWS SERVICE

A 39-year-old man was cited Monday following a two-month investigation into a


hidden camera found by a woman while
using a restroom at a grocery store in Palo
Alto, police said Tuesday.
Benjamin Joseph Clerici, of South San
Francisco, was released after being cited
Monday for misdemeanor use of a concealed
camera without consent with the intent to
invade anothers privacy, Palo Alto police
Lt. Zach Perron said.
Clerici was the night manager of Piazzas
Fine Foods grocery market at 3922
Middlefield Road where Palo Alto police
received a call at 2:19 p.m. on Oct. 15 that

a camera pen was found inside an employees-only womens restroom there, according to Perron.
A woman in her 30s who was a contract
employee for Piazzas went to the ladies
room at the store at 11:10 p.m. on Oct. 14
and while seated on the toilet, noticed an
object pointing out from supplies on a nearby shelf, Perron said.
The object looked like a writing pen and
because it was in an odd location, she picked
it up to examine it and realized it was actually a hidden camera, according to Perron.

The victim notified her supervisor at


Piazzas and they reported the incident to
store management on Oct. 15. Police were
then contacted and store managers cooperated with the departments subsequent investigation, police said.
Detectives eventually presented the
results of their investigation to the Santa
Clara County District Attorneys Office and
on Dec. 23 obtained a warrant for Clericis
arrest, Perron said.
Police issued Clerici a misdemeanor citation when he self-surrendered at the department on Monday, he said.
Officers believe that the camera had been
placed in the restroom shortly before the
victim found it and do not think there are
any additional victims, he said.

An East Palo Alto man with three prior


strikes was sentenced Tuesday to 96 years
and eight months to life in prison for the
brutal stabbing murder of his live-in girlfriend, according to prosecutors.
Richard Earl Slaughter, 50, was convicted
by a jury in September of murder with an
enhancement for the use of a deadly weapon
in connection with the Aug. 12, 2013, death
of 47-year-old East Palo Alto resident
Philomena Ashford-Anderson.
In addition, he was convicted of felony
possession of a firearm by a felon, felony
possession of a loaded firearm in a vehicle,
felony drunken driving causing injury and

felony driving with a blood alcohol level of


more than .08 percent causing injury, prosecutors said.
The sentence imposed Tuesday reflects
both those charges and three previous
strikes for violent offenses including one
armed robbery conviction dating to 1995
and two attempted murder convictions dating to 1999, San Mateo County District
Attorney Steve Wagstaffe said Tuesday.
Slaughter was arrested by Redwood City
police in August 2013 on suspicion of
drunken driving after a collision in which
he struck two cars, according to police and
prosecutors.
Shortly after he was treated for minor
injuries and booked into San Mateo County
Jail, Slaughter told officers where to find

Red light cameras fade as


speed cams get green light
By David Porter
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEWARK, N.J. Motorists rejoicing over decisions to discontinue


unpopular red light camera programs
dont have to drive too far for a buzzkill.
The number of red light cameras
nationwide is falling because of opposition from lawmakers and average Joes
but the use of cameras to catch speeders is slowly rising, potentially signaling a new battleground.
The number of U.S. communities
using red light cameras has fallen 13
percent, to 469, since the end of 2012,
according to the Insurance Institute for

Highway Safety, a nonprofit scientific


and educational organization funded by
the insurance industry. That includes the
24 towns in New Jersey that participated in a pilot program that ended this
month with no pending legislation to
revive it.
Meanwhile, the institute estimates
that 137 communities use speed cameras, up from 115 at the end of 2011.
Advocates for cameras that catch red
light runners point to data showing they
reduce accidents, while critics note that
they cant employ judgment to distinguish between, say, a red light run during rush hour in a school zone and a
technically illegal right turn on a red

light at 3 a.m. Speeding, however, is a


bit more black and white when it comes
to cameras.
The goal of these advocates for the
red light cameras was a one-two punch,
said New Jersey state Sen. Michael
Doherty, an opponent. Theyd come in
with the red light cameras and expand to
speeding cameras.
New Jerseys red light program was
beset with problems: a yellow-light
timing controversy that caused the cameras to be shut down temporarily; a computer glitch that voided thousands of
tickets; and a federal lawsuit initiated by
one resident that led to refunds for hundreds of thousands of motorists.

Report: 4M actively
enroll in health plans

Former lawmaker plots return after lung transplant

By Carla K. Johnson

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

The first 50-state report on the latest sign-up season under


President Barack Obamas health care law shows that more
than 4 million people selected plans for the first time or reenrolled in what the administration called an encouraging
start.
More than 3.4 million people enrolled using
HealthCare.gov as of Dec. 15, and more than 600,000 people
selected plans in the state-run marketplaces, according to a
Department of Health and Human Services report released
Tuesday. The figures are generally up-to-date through Dec.
13.
About half of those enrolling are first-timers and half are
returning customers, suggesting there are about 2 million
Americans new to the program.
The figures look good for the administration meeting its
goal of 9.1 million customers signed up and paying premiums in 2015, independent experts said. But they predicted the
program wont meet another target: the 13 million enrollments forecast by the nonpartisan Congressional Budget
Office in 2015.
It would take a massive surge in enrollment over the next
six weeks to reach 13 million, said Larry Levitt of the nonpartisan Kaiser Family Foundation.
Other experts believe that for the program to be sustainable
it would have to exceed the goal set by the administration.

California state lawmaker announced
this week she is plotting her return
campaign three years after a rare
autoimmune disease required her to

transplant.

Common-law husband pleads not guilty to beating death


DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT

A Daly City man with a series of


domestic violence cases against his
common-law wife of 30 years pleaded
not guilty Tuesday in Superior Court to
fatally beating the woman to death.
Daniel Bryan Thomas, 65, waived
his right to a speedy prosecution and
was scheduled for jury trial May 11.
Meanwhile, he remains in custody
without bail.
Thomas is charged with murder in the
April 30, 2014, death of Ruby Grim,

65, his commonlaw wife of approximately 30 years.


Grim was found on
the bedroom floor
of the couples
Florence
Street
home just before 8
a. m. with severe
Daniel Thomas injuries including head trauma
all over her 90-pound body. Thomas
reportedly told neighbors he found her
unresponsive and they called police

after going to the home to investigate.


Thomas has prior domestic violence
cases involving Grim including one
for which he received three years probation after pleading no contest and
another in August 2013 that had been
scheduled for trial in June until she
died.
In 2012, Grim filed for a domestic
violence restraining order and Thomas
reportedly violated it repeatedly by
remaining at the Daly City home.
He returns to court March 10 for a
pretrial conference for his jury trial.

WASHINGTON The number of law


enforcement officers killed by firearms
jumped by 56 percent this year and included
15 ambush deaths. But gun-related police
deaths still remain far below historic highs
and lower than the average annual figures in
the past decade, according to a report
released Tuesday.
The annual report by the nonprofit
National Law Enforcement Officers
Memorial Fund found that 50 officers were
killed by guns this year. Thats higher than
the 32 such deaths last year but the same as
2012 figures.
In 2011, 73 officers were killed in gunfire,
the most in any year in the past decade. The
average since 2004 is 55 police deaths
annually.
In all, the report found that 126 federal,
local, tribal and territorial officers were
killed in the line of duty in 2014. Thats a
24 percent jump from last years 102 on-

duty deaths, though below the average annual figures since 2004 and the all-time high
of 156 in 1973, said Steve Groeninger, a
spokesman for the memorial fund.
Of the 126 officer deaths this year, shootings were the leading cause, followed by
traffic-related fatalities, at 49.
This years increase in gun-related deaths
among officers followed a dramatic dip in
2013, when the figure fell to levels not seen
since the 19th century.
This years uptick comes amid increased
tension between police and the public following the high-profile deaths of unarmed
black men by white police officers, including those of Eric Garner in New York and
Mike Brown in Ferguson, Missouri.
The states that saw the most officer deaths
were California, at 14; Texas, at 11; and New
York, at nine. Florida followed with six
deaths, and Georgia had five, according to
the report.
The 15 ambush assaults on police officers
this year compares to just five in 2013, but
matched 2012 for the highest total since
1995, the report said.

Around the nation

WASHINGTON Potential candidates


eyed a New York congressional seat Tuesday
as Republican Rep.
Michael
Grimm
announced his resignation, following a guilty
plea on tax evasion
charges.
Among the possible
candidates is a Staten
Island prosecutor who
Michael Grimm oversaw a case in which a
white New York City
police officer was cleared in the death of a
black man in an apparent chokehold. Two
state lawmakers and a former congressman
who was unseated by Grimm could also be
interested in the open seat.
House Speaker John Boehner called
Grimms resignation honorable, saying
Grimm made his decision with the best
interests of his constituents and the institution (of the House) in mind.
Grimm, a New York Republican, had
vowed to stay in Congress as long as he
could, even after his guilty plea last week.
But he said Monday night that he plans to
resign effective Jan. 5.

GOP leader regrets


talk to white supremacists
WASHINGTON The Houses third-ranking Republican leader said Tuesday he
regrets speaking 12 years
ago to a white supremacist group and condemns
the views of such groups.
House Majority Whip
Steve
Scalise
of
Louisiana said that as a
state legislator in 2002,
he spoke to many groups
about a major tax issue.
Steve Scalise
One of the many
groups that I spoke to regarding this critical
legislation was a group whose views I
wholeheartedly condemn, Scalise said in a
statement. It was a mistake I regret, and I
emphatically oppose the divisive racial and
religious views groups like these hold.
Republican leaders defended Scalise,
while Democratic groups criticized him.
House Speaker John Boehner of Ohio said
Scalise made an error in judgment, and he
was right to acknowledge it was wrong and
inappropriate. Boehner said Scalise has
my full confidence as our Whip.

Obituary

Irving Manuel Witt


September 12, 1921 - December 24, 2014
Our family and community are deeply saddened by the loss of Irving
Witt this Christmas Eve at the age of 93. He died of natural causes
with his wife and family by his side in San Rafael, California.
Irv was born in Stockton, California, the oldest son of Russian
Jewish immigrants, who raised their boys among a large extended
family and Jewish community in the San Joaquin Valley. Irv was an
accomplished student, and attended the University of California
Berkeley as an undergraduate. Following army service as a lieutenant in Guadalcanal during
World War II, he returned to attain a Masters degree from the University of Chicago, then his
doctorate in sociology from the University of California. He met his loving wife Josephine
through mutual friends in San Francisco and they married in 1952.
Irv taught sociology at San Francisco State College before moving to the College of San
Mateo in 1963. He and Jo raised their family and lived in San Mateo throughout their lives.
In addition to being an admired and respected teacher, Irv was chair of the department
of sociology. Irv and his wife shared a passion for local and national politics, and he was
involved in many community organizations and positions, including the board of the ACLU
and the San Mateo Senior Commission. Irv continued teaching until his 80s, and lived in
their home until this August.
Irv is survived by his wife Josephine Witt, sons Jeremy and Jordan Witt, daughter-in-law
Erika Rappaport, and grandchildren Loretta, Jessie, Emma, Andy, and Ben Witt; and brother
Melvin Witt and sisters-in-law Dorothy and Hiala Witt, as well as many other loving family
members. A service will be held in Irvs honor at Sneider, Sullivan, and OConnells Funeral

Wind causes outages,


expected to die down
High winds whipped the Peninsula and the
Bay Area Tuesday with a wind advisory in
effect until noon Wednesday, when it is supposed to die down to about 10 to 15 mph for
the rest of the day.
Downed trees and dropped tree limbs kept
public safety officials busy throughout the
day and downed power lines caused outages
throughout the Bay Area.
In San Mateo County, there were about
600 outages as of 5 p.m. mainly in the
Hillsdale area, according to Pacific Gas and
Electric.
Outages were seen throughout the Bay
Area with about 20,000 customers without
power during the day primarily in the
North and East Bay. That number increased
to about 116,000 in the Bay Area Tuesday
night with about 50,000 without power as
of about 5 p.m. PG&E has about 1,500 personnel out clearing downed vegetation and
power lines and working to restore service
to customers.
High winds also caused problems with
BART, with trains running at reduced speeds
due to reports of wind-blown debris on the
tracks systemwide and service halted altogether in part of San Francisco due to
downed trees.
The high wind on the Bay also forced
South San Francisco ferry service to the East
Bay to be canceled Tuesday evening, according to a ferry spokesman.
National Weather Service officials said
the strongest winds in the Bay Area were
estimated to be up to 45 mph.
Wind gusts were estimated to be up to 55
mph in the North and East Bay areas.

popular blogger, rose to prominence with
his investigations of official corruption and
played a leading role in organizing antiPutin demonstrations in Moscow in 2011

Navalny, who has been under house arrest
since February, violated its terms to attend
the rally and was rounded up by police as he
approached the site. He later tweeted that
police drove him home and blocked him
from leaving his apartment.
The protesters, who gathered on the

Ukraine, which saw its Crimean Peninsula
annexed by Russia in March and has faced a

year to sneak in cellphones and drugs to an
incarcerated Hells Angel. The inmate and his
sister, mother and girlfriend are also charged
in the alleged conspiracy.
Also in November, Jessica Evans, the former Downtown San Mateo Association executive director widely praised for reinvigorating the business group was arrested on allegations she embezzled about $5,000 of its
funds for personal expenses including babysitting and a Sausalito resort stay. Evans
headed the DSMA for two years before
abruptly departing in July after, as it turned
out, being confronted by the executive board
about financial irregularities.
In December, former Central County Fire
Chief Mark Ladas was placed on leave and
arrested for grand theft and tax evasion.
Prosecutors say he and his wife, Petra, conducted an elaborate credit card scheme
between January 2011 and June 2013 and
funneled nearly $35,000 into three of his
accounts. She is also charged but, after Ladas
posted her bail in 2012, she fled the country
and remains at large. Ladas was placed on
administrative leave and retired Dec. 15.
Second to Yee, or perhaps even surpassing
it depending on ones perspective, the countys criminal grand jury in early 2014 indicted 16 gangmembers in such a historically
large case that the private defender program
went to the Board of Supervisors for more
money. The indictments are for a range of
2012 and 2013 crimes including four murders in East Palo Alto and San Francisco, a
highway shooting in Belmont, a robbery,
attempting to keep witnesses quiet, drug
trafficking, bribery, firearms possession
and conspiracy. The crimes reportedly began
when the Da Vill and Sac Street gangs of East
Palo Alto teamed up against the Taliban
gang of East Palo Alto and Menlo Park. The

Police were later called to a house in a
quiet cul de sac in the northeast Monday
afternoon to check on reports of a
depressed, suicidal male earlier in the
evening.
The male was not located and there was
no response, and nothing suspicious was
noted at the residence.
Knecht said police received new information after midnight that prompted officers

defendants were eligible for the death penalty but District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe is
opting against it for all but one. That one
case remains undecided.
San Mateo County had its share of crime
oddities, too. Marilyn Jean Hartman first
popped onto public radar in February when
she was arrested following three attempts
within five days to board Hawaii-bound
flights without a ticket. Once she actually
boarded; the others, she made it through
security. After first claiming cancer and then
taking a plea deal, she was arrested at San
Francisco International Airport in each of
the next two months despite a court order to
stay away. She was allowed into a court mental health program but violated probation by
heading to SFO again, each time getting new
attention. In August, she headed south by
sneaking onto a plane at Mineta San Jose
International Airport bound for Los
Angeles. She was arrested and barred from
the airport. She showed up anyway. She was
last reported being arrested at the Phoenix
airport.
A year is never complete without some
eyebrow-raising political moments and
2014, Yee not withstanding, was no different. The San Mateo County Harbor District
Board of Commissioners was fraught with
personality politics throughout the year as
the newest member Sabrina Brennan clashed
with the others over videotaping meetings,
finances, fishing regulations and a variety
of other issues causing late and contentious
meetings. The civil grand jury ultimately
called for the district to be dissolved an
idea that remains undecided and the
November election ended with charter boat
captain Tom Mattusch ousting appointed
incumbent Will Holsinger. Newcomer
Nicole David, back by Brennan, secured a
seat and incumbent Robert Bernardo
appeared ousted. But as the final votes were
tallied in coming weeks, Bernardo actually
beat out incumbent Jim Tucker in an unexpected twist.

PIEDRA HERRADA, Mexico More


Monarch butterflies appear to have made the
long flight from the U.S. and Canada to
their winter nesting ground in western
Mexico, raising hopes after their number
dropped to a record low last year. But
experts still fear that unusual cold tempera-

tures will threaten the orange and black


insects.
While an official census wont be ready
until mid-January, observers are seeing
healthy populations of butterflies bunched
together on fir and pine trees in protected
sanctuaries, said Gloria Talavera, director of
the official monarch butterfly reserve.
Were encouraged, because weve seen
more, Talavera said Monday.
But cold forecast for this winter, she said,
could put at risk the whole migratory phenomenon. ... We will be saying a prayer
each day until mid-February.

Khosla closed the popular site to the public,


sparking outrage from those used to accessing it for years and battles in both the courts
and state Capitol. Alongside civil suits
against Khosla, state Sen. Jerry Hill, D-San
Mateo, authored legislation requiring the
tech mogul to negotiate with the State Lands
Commission for access or risk eminent
domain. Khoslas legal team fought back by
now claiming the law conflicts with a
judges ruling to pen the property because it
violates the separation of powers between
judicial and legislative branches.
Back on the other side of the county, east
side residents of San Carlos spent 2014
largely battling a series of controversial
plans they said crimped their quality of life
and left them shouldering the brunt of the
citys challenges. The Transit Village, a
mixed-use development around the existing
historical train station on El Camino Real,
was finally approved this year in a scaleddown version after years of contention.
Then came rezoning in the industrial area for
a potential hotel. In July, the council voted
3-2 to restripe Holly Street the citys
main thoroughfare into two lanes and
prohibit street parking between 7 a.m. and 6
p.m. on weekdays as a way to ease congestion. Neighbors cried foul and filed suit
although a judge dismissed nearly all of it.
Now, the same neighborhood is mobilizing
against plans by Sequoia Union High
School District to purchase land for a
school. Residents worry that Laureola Park,
next to the Old County Road property, will
become part of the school.
Speaking of school, education had its big
moments locally, too.
Dr. David Putney, principal of El Camino
High School was placed on administrative
leave in October while being investigated
for several allegations including those
stemming from claims he did not adequately
respond to a black students racial bullying
by other teens. The investigation was
prompted by a 15-year-old students report
that other students called him a racial slur
and taunted him to put a noose around his
own neck. His family said the principal
brushed off
the
incid e n t s .

Results of an investigation are slated to be


announced in January.
In Burlingame, the San Mateo Union High
School District and city were so much at
odds over a shared pool at Burlingame High
School that the district threatened to sue.
The two entities bickered over use and operation costs of the 50-meter Olympic size
pool and the anonymous donor of $1.2 million toward the pool added fuel to the fire by
claiming the district made false claims about
its usage.
The district also spent 2014 looking for a
new space for its Design Tech High School,
a charter school current at Mills High
School but hoping for a move to the SMART
Center in San Mateo where the San Mateo
Adult School holds classes.
While most of the countys big news was
particularly local, some echoed what was
happening in the state, the nation and even
the world.
After
California
voters
passed
Proposition 47, San Mateo County like its
57 counterparts saw jail populations drop as
former felony charges on some crimes
shoplifting, grand theft, receiving stolen
property, check forgery, writing bad checks
and drug possession all with a $950 or
less value cap were downgraded to misdemeanors. The money saved, estimated
between $100 million to $250 million, is to
be redirected into programs for truancy, victim services and mental health and drug
abuse treatment in hopes that they keep people from entering or returning to the criminal justice system.
The statewide drought also had local
implications with numerous Peninsula cities
turning off municipal water use and imposing fines for wasting.
As with the rest of the Bay Area, San
Mateo County saw housing and rental prices
spike alongside a significant development
boom. In Redwood City alone, downtown
development peaked so high there is practically no space left. In response, Redwood
City officials are considering tweaks to its
downtown precise plan to increase the

OPINION

THE DAILY JOURNAL

Wednesday Dec. 31, 2014

Protecting Laureola Park

he residents in the Greater


East San Carlos neighborhood
certainly have had their share
of intrigue and concern as of late.
The new Palo Alto Medical
Foundation medical center and a proposed hotel on Industrial Road, the
pending development of the Transit
Village next to the Caltrain station
and a city decision to restripe Holly
Street to two lanes without street
parking during certain hours has
caused frustration for residents who
feel they are feeling the brunt of the
development and economic expansion without much benet.
Most recently, a proposal for a new
magnet high school on Old County
Road has residents concerned that its
students will take over Laureola Park.
School districts have more liberty
when it comes to developing a site
than say a developer, so the city has
limited ability to oversee the planning process for a new school aside
from seeing if it adheres to its general
plan. However, it does have an ability
to ensure that its park remains as it is

Editorial
now. That is key for moving forward
in an amicable way and members of
the Sequoia Union High School
District Board of Trustees seem willing and interested in making sure the
neighbors concerns are addressed.
A school adds value to a community
but it also has an impact. San Carlos
Councilman Mark Olbert has offered
to assist the district in nding an
alternative location yet did not
receive support from others on the
council. Perhaps that might change,
but current land values and the limitations placed upon school districts for
new facilities make nding an appropriate location nearly impossible.
The rationale for the new school is
that the districts enrollment is growing fast and room is running out. San
Carlos once had a high school but
now its students go to other cities for
secondary education. This is an
opportunity to give the city a high

school once again and ease the commute for some of its students.
However, there is also a very real concern on the part of the residents in the
neighborhood around the proposed
school that it will have a deleterious
effect on their way of life particularly when combined with the other
impacts of new development in the
area.
If the residents concerns that the
park will be used by the new schools
students is real, then the school district needs to provide a clear rationale
for those intentions and provide some
sort of benet for those affected. The
city also has a responsibility to
ensure that its asset, the park, is not
diminished for those who currently
use it regardless of who the new
neighbors are.
And if there is no intention that the
park is to be used by the school, then
district ofcials need to make that as
clear as possible as soon as possible.
Otherwise, it will have a ght on its
hands.

Letters to the editor


Whos the bully on the block?
Editor,
In your last article regarding Mr.
Khoslas legal dispute with the state
and his refusal to reopen access to
Martins Beach through his property,
state Sen. Jerry Hill, D-San Mateo,
seems to have nothing but derision
for any citizen of means who dares
stand up and ght for his property
rights (Revelations in Martins
Beach case: Property owners attorneys argue cause for new trial in the
Dec. 24 edition of the Daily Journal).
Per your quote of Mr. Hill, the implication is that it is wrong for Mr.
Khosla to spend his own money ghting for what is his right.
To wit, your paper has the honorable Mr. Hill saying,If youre a billionaire you could hire an attorney to
say anything you want them to say
and for as long as you want them to
say it.
Using the same logic, if one is to
have derision for a billionaire like
Mr. Khosla in such circumstances,
what is one to feel about the state? At
least Mr. Khosla is using his own
money.

Oct. 3 the City Council had convened


to decide that beginning Jan. 1,
homeowners shall assume full responsibility for sewer laterals. If it has to
be replaced, the homeowner will have
to bear the cost. Also, the city will no
longer clean and clear any clogged
sewer laterals, not even once a year.
I was informed a few years ago by
the San Mateo Public Works
Department that the city had a plan to
replace all the sewer laterals, beginning with those that clogged the most
frequently. The cloggings were most
often caused by city planed trees.
Now, the city has abandoned that plan
and given the problem to its residents
with no sewer free reductions.
The city is trying to whitewash this
action and assuage its residents by
offering to pay for half of the cost of
a sewer lateral replacement. This will
still cost the resident at least $3,000.
This is nothing more than a hidden
taxation and an adoption of a corporate greed policy.
It greatly concerns me that the city
of San Mateo is taking the path of not
being responsible for its problems
and dictatorily discarding them to its
residents. We residents should all
speak against this trend.

Dream on
P

eople can become wedded to their particular


view of how things should work that they
ignore all evidence that suggests that change
is necessary. Gordon Livingston, Ph.D., Too Soon
Old, Too Late Smart.
Im sure that there are many things that all of us would
like to see happen in 2015. Ive chosen one of mine to
review today. I would like to see the demise of football. I
was reminded of this when, a few weeks ago, we saw featured on a TV news show a football team from the Bay
Area composed of 8-to-11-year-old boys that was going to
a tournament of American Youth Football in Florida. Team
members were shown as they waited to board their plane.
Included were shots of the
boys in action. My jaw
dropped open when I realized that this was tackle
football.
At that very time, I was
reading League of Denial
by Mark Fainaru-Wada and
Steve Fainaru, a riveting
book that thoroughly
delineates the problem of
head trauma in the NFL. A
reviewer wrote: These
investigative reporters
reveal how the NFL, over a
period of nearly two
decades, sought to cover up and deny mounting evidence
that it was facing a deadly new scourge: chronic brain disease that was driving an alarming number of players
including some of the all-time greats to madness.
The NFL has continually denied that the concussions
their players repeatedly suffered from have had anything
to do with the mental health problems that were discovered to plague many of them not long after they retired
from the game, if not sooner. From dementia to depression, suicide, early death from the results of brain trauma,
all were veried by independent physicians and other scientists who had been investigating the problem for years.
Its outrageous that young boys and teens are allowed to
become involved in this game that rattles the brains of
even grown men! You wonder in what condition their
minds will be when they get older and continue to play in
high school, etc. As reported in the Dec. 19 issue of The
Week, Footballs Impact on Teens When the brains of
24 16-to-18-year-old football players were scanned at the
end of one season, it was found that all of them had measurable abnormalities similar to the effects of mild traumatic brain injuries.
And, as the NFL keeps denying and vacillating, more
and more boys, young men and professional football
players continue to risk serious brain trauma and damage
in the name of that All-American game. As the authors
wrote: Thats the thing about football, why its different
from cigarettes and coal dust and not wearing your seatbelt
and a whole range of other things that have proven bad for
us. We love football. Americans by the millions are complicit in making the sport what it has become, for better
or worse. Seems its OK to sacrice a few lives so that
rabid fans can get their thrills. What does that say about
Americas morals, ethics and values?
The powers-that-be of the NFL have resorted to all kinds
of tactics to avoid the issue. For years they were in complete denial, challenging anything that scientists and
other concerned people revealed about the brain trauma.
Now it has evolved until they are trying to appease those
who may be concerned by coming out with improved
helmets and even a different type of tackling called heads
up that is supposed to protect the brain. Nate Jackson,
author of Slow Getting Up A story of NFL survival at
the bottom of the pile, called heads up a product that
the NFL is selling to create the illusion that the game is
safe or can be made safe. Its rather shameless. I think its
sad. I think its indicative of what the leagues motives
are: prot, prot, prot.
This has been an outrageous travesty. Wouldnt you
think that the fact that so many pro football players have
suffered and are suffering from head trauma that has
destroyed and continues to destroy their lives often in
their 40s would convince enough parents to keep their
sons out of the game? Its hard to believe that parents who
allow, and even encourage, their sons to play football
dont value their childrens lives more than that. Isnt this
a form of child abuse?
There may be a wee bit of hope. The authors report that
Between 2010 and 2012, Pop Warner, the nations
largest youth football program, saw an exodus of 23,612
players. The 9.5 percent drop in participation is believed
to be the largest in the organizations 85-year history.
Wouldnt it be great if many more parents were to get the
message and football would eventually become a distant
memory?

NEW YORK Lingering concerns


about the political future of Greece
pushed U.S. and global stock markets
modestly lower on Tuesday.
Trading was slow as most investors
have closed their books for 2014. It
was the eighth-slowest day of the year
on the New York Stock Exchange.
As been the case several times this
year, investors turned their eyes to
Europe.
Greek stocks stabilized after a
volatile day Monday, when the countrys government was forced to call
elections that could create more economic turmoil. Investors worry that
the elections might be won by the leftwing opposition Syriza party, which
opposes the austerity measures associated with Greeces international financial rescue deal. The Athens stock market plunged as much as 11 percent on
Monday before recovering some of
those losses to close down 4 percent
that day.
An election puts all sorts of doubt
on the future of the bailout agreement, said Stan Shamu, a market
strategist at IG Markets. Potentially
markets had already priced this in, but
I would still remain cautious around
Greece.

U.S. stocks opened lower and stayed


down throughout the day. The Dow
Jones industrial average lost 55.16
points, or 0.3 percent, to 17,983.07.
The Standard & Poors 500 index lost
10. 22 points, or 0. 5 percent, to
2,080.35 and the Nasdaq composite
fell 29.47 points, or 0.6 percent, to
4,777.44.
European markets also fell. Frances
CAC 40 lost 1.7 percent, Germanys
DAX declined 1.2 percent and Britains
FTSE 100 dropped 1. 3 percent.
Greeces stock market fell 0.4 percent.
At this point, most investors are
done trading for the year. The market is
also expected to be quiet Wednesday
ahead of New Years Day holiday, however oftentimes the last trading day of
the year does see a modest burst of trading as some investors shift their portfolios around for tax purposes.
With one more trading day in 2014,
the S&P 500 is up 12.6 percent for the
year, or 15.4 percent including dividends. That gain is almost double what
stock market strategists expected at
the beginning of the year.

There were some negative surprises


along the way, including the Ebola
scare and increasing social tensions
around the globe, Gary Thayer, chief
macro strategist at Wells Fargo
Advisors, wrote in a note to investors.
However, U.S. markets were able to
weather these problems as (the U.S.
economy) improved.
In other markets, the dollar fell
against the euro and yen. The yield on
the benchmark 10-year U.S. Treasury
note fell to 2.19 percent from 2.20
percent Monday.
Benchmark U.S. crude rose 51 cents
to settle at $54.12 a barrel in New
York. On Monday, the contract
plunged $1.12 to settle at $53.61.
Brent crude, a benchmark for international oils used by many U.S. refineries, edged up two cents to close at
$57.90 a barrel in London.
In other energy commodities,
wholesale gasoline was little changed
at $1.454 a gallon, heating oil rose
two cents to $1.869 a gallon and natural gas fell 10.5 cents to close at
$3.094 per 1,000 cubic feet.

How wealth gap complicates sibling relationships


By Bernard Condon
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK When Jayson Seaver


thinks about why he makes so much money
while some Americans cant catch a break,
he thinks of the sacrifices hes made, the
jobs he worked to pay for college, the 12hour days he spends at the office now.
And he thinks of his youngest sister,
Jackie, whom he practically begged to go to
college and how she refused and is paying
for it now, watching with envy while he
flies around on vacation and enjoys his
wealth.
At least thats how he sees it. She has a
different view. But they dont talk much.
Im disappointed in her, says Jayson,
37. I think its distanced us.
Its a story as old as humankind: People
raised in the same home, at the same time,
by the same parents, who as adults land in
vastly different financial circumstances.
Experts see a growing trend. The same

forces that have increasingly separated the


richest Americans from everyone else is
dividing brothers and sisters, too. Its
given rise to a mix of often conflicting
emotions jealousy and resentment, disappointment and distance, but also frequently understanding and respect.
From 2009 through 2012, income for the
wealthiest 1 percent of households surged
31 percent, after adjusting for inflation,
according to research by economist
Emmanuel Saez of the University of
California, Berkeley. For everyone else,
income inched up just 0.4 percent.
As the wealth gap has widened, some
mental health professionals say theyve
seen more patients for whom such a divide
has become a personal issue.
In 35 years practicing psychotherapy,
Janna Malamud Smith says shes never had
so many clients troubled by sibling wealth.
The complaints have grown so familiar to
her she can riff on them without pause:
My sibling can afford to join this country club, and I cant. My brother has hous-

es in four countries, and why cant he help


me out?
Theres more than one reason Stuart
Schneider and his siblings stopped speaking years ago. But Schneider, 53, thinks the
problem began when he struck it rich in the
late 90s selling high-end textiles and
began driving a Land Rover and sporting a
Rolex watch.
I thought they would be proud of me, he
says, referring to his sister and recently
deceased brother. But it really wasnt that
way.
Likewise, VP Young Chang, co-owner of a
Los Angeles clothes company, thought his
cousins would be pleased he could afford a
Ferrari and BMW 7 Series until he
showed up to a family party a few years ago
in one of the cars.
It didnt play well. It wasnt, Congrats,
Buddy, says Chang, 38. There was jealousy Why do you drive a BMW? We grew
up the same.
Now, when the family gets together,
Chang borrows his mothers van.

IPhone user tries to go back to BlackBerry


By Scott Mayerowitz
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK The BlackBerrys blinking


red light used to haunt me.
Just when I thought I could relax, enjoy a
nice dinner or go for a run, my BlackBerry
would start blinking again, signaling a new
message. I was an addict. Typing with one
hand, hiding the BlackBerry under the dinner
table? No problem. Walking down the street
while composing messages? Easy.
That was four years ago.
Today, Im a loyal iPhone user, having just
bought my second phone from Apple. I get
my personal and work email on it. I also use
it to tweet maybe too much and share
photos of my travels on Instagram. My airline boarding passes and hotel reservations
live on my phone. As a travel reporter, I find
its an indispensable tool for my work
not so much for the email but for all the apps
that help me manage my trips. It feels like a
mobile office for me.
This past week, I went back to my
BlackBerry ways to test the companys latest model, the Classic.
For BlackBerry, this device is a return to

its roots: Its made for those heavy corporate


users who love the physical keyboard and
have resisted the touch screens adopted by
millions of iPhone and Android users. The
Classic has strong security features, restores
the beloved navigation row and sports a battery that wont be drained by lunch.
I can see how the Classic is a great device
for loyal BlackBerry fans.
My friend Heather Montminy practically
jumped out of her chair to try the Classic
when she saw me testing it during dinner last
week with our respective spouses.
Montminy is a lawyer who has been using a
BlackBerry for 12 years and carries two
phones: an iPhone for her personal use and a
BlackBerry for work.
Im excited for any new BlackBerry. I was
really concerned that they were going to
phase out the keyboard, Montminy says. I
feel like I can get a business email done
much faster and more efficiently.
She says shes not great at typing on a
touch screen and often finds herself making
mistakes and having to go back and fix
them. That might be fine in a message to
friends but not on an important work email.
But after four years on the iPhone, I dont

think the Classic is for me. I also dont


believe its going to sway back anybody
who has abandoned the BlackBerry.
To be honest, Ive become very good at
typing emails on my touch screen. And Im
no casual user.
I send and receive a whopping 500 emails
a day. Many are public relations pitches that
only require a word or two in reply. But for
many others, I will easily respond with a few
paragraphs on my iPhone. In fact, I will
often write large sections of my stories on
my iPhone while riding the subway or sitting on planes prior to takeoff. The only big
downside for me is copying and pasting.
Going back to a physical keyboard this
past week turned out to be cumbersome. Yes,
I liked that while in another program, the
BlackBerry gave me a little banner up top
announcing the sender of a new email. And,
to be honest, that blinking red light was, in
a strange way, comforting. But I wasnt typing any faster with the physical keyboard.
Beyond that, photos arent as good as
what I can take with the iPhone. Both
phones produce 8 megapixel pictures, but
images taken with the Classic werent as
sharp.

A decade ago, sociologist Dalton Conley


produced research suggesting that income
inequality in America occurs as much within
families as among them. Yet the similarities tend to end there. In comparing yourself
with rich strangers, Conley notes, you can
always convince yourself that they inherited wealth or attended elite schools or had
parents with connections to lucrative jobs.
That doesnt work if your brother or sister
becomes wealthy. A disparity in siblings
fortunes can feel, Conley says, like a judgment on intelligence or drive.
You had pretty much the same advantages and disadvantages growing up, says
Conley, author of The Pecking Order:
Which Siblings Succeed and Why.
Such tangled feelings of success and failure can have a public impact, too. How
Americans feel about the wealth gap within
their families shapes how they feel about it
nationally whether or not they see it as
an inequity that must be addressed, says
Lane Kenworthy, a sociologist at the
University of California, San Diego.

Bumgarner APs Male Athlete of the Year


By Janie McCauley
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO Madison Bumgarner


sat in the outeld alongside Jake Peavy
before Game 7 of the World Series and told
his teammate exactly what needed to happen:
Tim Hudson would work a few innings and
get the ball to Bumgarner, who would hand it
off to the bullpen to nish the championship.
Peavy quickly offered his own prediction
that Bumgarner would end it himself.
Thats exactly what MadBum did, follow-

ing up a pair of World


Series wins with a save at
Kansas City to close out
San Franciscos third title
in ve years and cap a
brilliant postseason that
made him a household
name or, at the very
least, a household nickname. He is the 2014
Madison
Associated Press Male
Bumgarner
Athlete of the Year.
I was sitting in the outeld with Madison
and he was asking me how I thought this

game was going to play out, Peavy recalled


this month. I said to him: Madison, when
you get the ball, youre not coming out of the
game. Youre the best guy weve got. ... He
said, Man, thats exactly what I hoped you
would say and exactly what he wanted. He
just needed some conrmation, somebody to
believe in him as well. I said, Fight for that
ball, man, and what he did will go down in
the ages as the best ever.
The shaggy-haired left-hander who takes
as much pride in his pitching and durability
as he does his deep North Carolina roots,
Bumgarner became Octobers biggest star for

a San Francisco club that really needed one


during another improbable World Series run.
Bumgarner nished rst in a vote by U.S.
editors and news directors. He beat out
Dodgers pitcher Clayton Kershaw who
won the National League Cy Young and MVP.
Retiring New York Yankees star Derek Jeter
and golfer Rory McIlroy tied for third place.
The award was announced Tuesday.
After months of the same questions about
his well-tested left arm, Bumgarner made
light of it all.

Notre Dame falls short Warriors whip


Warriors 126, 76ers 86

Philadelphia

By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

The composure and depth of the Palo Alto


girls basketball team proved too much for
Notre Dame-Belmont, as the Vikings claimed
the Steve Geramoni Invitational championship Tuesday with a 58-43 win at Moore
Pavilion.
Sophomore Skylar Burris who somehow
did not make the all-tournament team showcased Palys depth by scoring a game-high 20
points.
In Mondays seminal, it was eventual tournament MVP Lauren Koyama who stole the
show with six 3-pointers en route to a gamehigh 18 points in a win over Menlo. Tuesday,
Notre Dame kept Koyama in check with just
seven points. But Burris stepped up, knocking
down four 3-pointers in the game.
Just watching them play, I knew every one
of them could shoot, Notre Dame head coach
Josh Davenport said. Plus, they have size and
the ability to get to the basket. So, we had to
pick our poison.
The poison started taking effect near the end
of the rst quarter. Notre Dame (6-2 overall) did
well to respond to a hot Paly start. The
Vikings opened the game with a 7-0 run, but
Notre Dame senior Emma Pastorino leveled
the playing eld early with an early assist to
sophomore Cam McNab for a 3-pointer to get
the Tigers on the board. Two minutes later,
Pastorino hit a 3-pointer of her own to give
Notre Dame its rst lead at 9-8.
The Tigers would not lead for long, however.
Tied with 20 second remaining in the rst
quarter, Burris drained her rst 3-pointer of the
game to give the Vikings a 14-11 lead to start
the second quarter. Not only did Paly (10-1)
lead for the rest of the game, the three-point
margin was as close as Notre Dame would get,
as Paly would push the lead to as much as 19
points in the third quarter.
Were scrappy, Davenport said. Were
going to ght and scrape and claw and stay in
a game as we can. But ultimately, they just
wore us down from the outside.
By the end of the rst half, everything was
going Palys way. Even junior Alexis Harris

Rousing reception for Harbaugh in return to Michigan


By Noah Trister
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ANN ARBOR, Mich. By the time Jim


Harbaugh walked onto the court at halftime of
the Michigan basketball game, his homecoming had turned into a full-edged pep
rally.
I pledge to you that we will do our very
best to carry on the great tradition of
Michigan excellence all across the board,
the Wolverines new football coach said to the

cheering crowd at Crisler


Center during Tuesdays
matinee win against
Illinois in an overtime
thriller, naturally.
You know how to make
a guy feel at home,
Harbaugh yelled, his
voice sounding hoarse
Jim Harbaugh from a whirlwind few
days.
Harbaugh is back. And none too soon for

fans who desperately want him to save the


football program where he starred as a quarterback 30 years ago one that has fallen into
the middle of the pack at best in the Big Ten
Conference and become an afterthought in the
national landscape.
The day began with a packed news conference, onlookers peeking through the windows from outside at the famous alumni as he
strode to the podium for a smiling, lighthearted session as his family watched from a few
feet away.

Michigans always been great. Its always


been great. I always believe in it, Harbaugh
said. In terms of selling something, youre
selling something you believe in in your
core.
As a starting quarterback for three seasons
under Bo Schembechler, he is remembered for
delivering a victory he guaranteed over Ohio
State in 1986, the same season he was Big
Ten player of the year and nished third in
Heisman Trophy voting.

Bearcats nail a dozen 3s in win over Oceana


By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

The San Mateo boys basketball team had


compiled a 4-7 non-league record going
into Tuesdays game against Oceana.
The Bearcats record, however, could easily be reversed. The Bearcats had lost their
seven games by a total of 38 points. Throw
out a 12-point loss to Gunderson and that
six-game total is 26 points.
Were very competitive right now, said
Marvin Lui, San Mateos rst-year coach.
Every game, were in.
Tuesday, there would be no drama. After a
slow start, the Bearcats got rolling. Led by
four players in double gures, San Mateo
posted a 73-51 win over the Sharks.
Bailey Fadrilan came off the bench to
score a game-high 19 points for San Mateo,
scoring 10 points during a two-minute, 42second span of the rst quarter, including a
pair of 3-pointers.
Bailey is denitely a spark plug, Liu
said. Those 3s were huge.

Fadrilans two 3s jump-started the


Bearcats outside shooting. They were part
of 12 3-pointers they hit for the game.
Fadrilan nished with three 3s, but it was
teammate Paolo Maramba who did him one
better, knocking down four 3s as he nished
with 14 points. Jeremiah Tankhim added a
pair of treys on his way to 12 points, while
Kevin Attard the Bearcats center nished with 11 points to go along with eight
rebounds.
The game did not start well for the
Bearcats, however. Despite getting four
offensive rebounds on their rst possession
of the game, the Bearcats managed just a
single point an Attard free throw over
the rst four minutes of the game.
Oceana, however, did not quite take
advantage, as the Sharks managed just four
points during the Bearcats dry spell.
In a lot of our games, in the rst quarter,
we do a good job of holding [opponents]
down, but we cant score, Liu said.
That all changed once Fadrilan came into
the game. Moments after entering, Fadrilan

drained his rst 3 of the night to tie the


score at 4. He then hit a pair of free throws
to put the Bearcats ahead to stay. After Ryan
Kalugdon hit 1 of 2 free throws, Fadrilan
buried his second 3 of the night and followed that with a layup. An Attard bucket
with 17 second left in the opening quarter
put San Mateo up 14-6, but a 3-pointer from
Oceanas Christian Mandigma trimmed the
Bearcats lead to 14-9 at the end of the rst
quarter.
The Bearcats all but put the game away in
the second quarter as they outscored Oceana
25-14 to take a 39-23 lead at halftime. San
Mateo opened the period with a 13-0 run,
punctuated by Fadrilans third 3-pointer of
the half, as well as back-to-back 3s from
Maramba as San Mateo pushed its lead to
27-9 with 6:10 to play.
When Maramba connected on his third 3
of the period, San Mateo had its largest lead
of the half, 35-13, but credit Oceana, however, for not giving up. Isiah Margate hit a
pull-up jumper to ignite a 10-4 Sharks run
to end the half down 39-23.

We were chipping away, said Oceana


coach Antonio Margate. Thats all I can
ask for.
The Sharks kept chipping away in the
third quarter, outscoring the Bearcats 19-17
in the period. Matt Bonilla had ve of his
11 points in the third, with Kiernan De La
Virgen scoring ve of his seven points in
quarter.
Isiah Margate led the Sharks with a teamhigh 12 points.
While San Mateo hit only four eld goals
in the third quarter, three of them were from
long range as Kalugdon got into the 3-point
swing with a pair of treys.
In the fourth quarter, Oceana essentially
ran out of steam. San Mateo hit its 11th and
12th 3-pointers to start the nal eight minutes, with Maramba and Fadrilan each draining a shot from behind the arc as the
Bearcats went on to outscore the Sharks 1710 in the nal period.
Were tough to guard, Liu said. The

effort.

Vancouver hands Sharks third straight loss


By Josh Dubow
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN JOSE Jannik Hansen scored in the


second period, immediately after leaving
the penalty box for an illegal hit to the
head, and the Vancouver Canucks snapped a
four-game road losing streak by beating the
San Jose Sharks 3-1 on Tuesday night.
Bo Horvat and Radim Vrbata also scored
for the Canucks, who have won their last
three games in San Jose. Ryan Miller
stopped one of two penalty shots he faced
and made 31 saves in all to beat the Sharks
for the seventh straight time.
Joe Thornton converted his penalty shot,
and Joe Pavelski missed for the Sharks, who

Canucks 3, Sharks 1
had two penalty shots for just the second
time in franchise history. Alex Stalock
made 18 saves as San Jose lost its third
straight.
Hansen was sent to the penalty box when
he knocked Tommy Wingels down with a hit
to the head. Wingels was forced to leave the
game to get checked out for a possible concussion. Hansen was penalized for two minutes but could be in for more punishment
from the NHL.
As soon as Hansens penalty ended, he
took a pass from Alex Edler and skated in
alone on Stalock to score his ninth goal of
the season. That made it 2-0 and added insult

to injury, although Wingels returned to the


game later in the period.
The Sharks answered after Thornton was
pulled down on a breakaway by Chris Tanev.
Thornton beat Miller on the penalty shot,
ending a streak of seven straight misses for
San Jose. Thornton scored the Sharks previous penalty shot goal on Dec. 30, 2009,
against Washington. San Jose had two
penalty shots in that game, as well, as
Ryane Clowe also scored.
The Canucks added to their lead midway
through the second when Vrbatas wrist shot
from the circle deflected off Stalocks glove
and into the net.
The Sharks failed to generate many
chances in the third against Vancouvers

stingy defense and had their eight-game


home winning streak snapped.
Vancouver struck first thanks to a fortunate bounce when Horvats centering pass
deflected off defenseman Brenden Dillons
skate and trickled past Stalock.
The Sharks had chances to tie it in the
first period but Pavelski hit the crossbar on
a penalty shot, and Miller made four saves
to help kill three power plays in the period.
NOTES: The Canucks have killed 34 of
36 penalties in December, including all four
this game. ... The Sharks are 1-for-4 on
penalty shots this season. ... San Jose F
Matt Nieto returned after missing nine
games with an ankle injury. Chris Tierney
was sent back to the minors.

Stanford routs Maryland in Foster Farms Bowl


By Antonio Gonzalez
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Stanford 45, Maryland 21

SANTA CLARA Kevin Hogan threw for


189 yards and two touchdowns, Remound
Wright ran for three short scores and
Stanford overwhelmed Maryland 45-21 in
the Foster Farms Bowl on Tuesday night.
On a chilly, windy night in Silicon Valley,
the Cardinal (8-5) blew past the Terrapins
with the kind of complete performance that
had eluded them most of the season. Stanford
outgained Maryland 414 to 222 yards and
looked right at home at Levis Stadium, only
about 11 miles from its campus.
It was the most points scored in a bowl
game in Stanford history.
Maryland missed a chance for its first
postseason win since 2010, when it beat
East Carolina in the Military Bowl. The
Terrapins (7-6) lost three of their final four
games.

It was a forgettable finale for coach Randy


Edsalls team. The Terps traveled about
2,800 miles to play in the $1.3 billion
home of the San Francisco 49ers but never
really came out of their shells.
Outgoing quarterback C.J. Brown moved
the offense early, though he was sacked six
times and his receivers other than star
Stefon Diggs often struggled to create
separation. Brown finished 16-for-28 passing for 214 yards and one interception. He
also ran for a late touchdown.
Diggs caught 10 passes for 138 yards,
Wes Brown ran for a 1-yard TD early in second quarter, and William Likely returned a
kickoff 100 yards for a score in the fourth
after the game had become a rout.
About the only other highlight for the
Terps came in the first quarter, when Andre
Monroe became Marylands career sacks

leader after bringing down Hogan. It was


Monroes 25th sack, passing Mike
Corvinos mark of 24 from 1979-82.
While the sun shined across the Bay Area
for the last week, the temperature dipped
into the 40s at kickoff with a wind chill that
made it feel like it was in the 30s frosty
weather by Northern California standards.
The patchy field, where the 49ers logos
could easily be seen under the school names
painted in each end zone, also made quick
movements tricky at the sparsely filled stadium.
The Cardinal overcame the conditions
and the absence of top playmaker Ty
Montgomery (sprained right shoulder) for
the second straight game to end a down
season on an upbeat note.
Stanford had made a BCS bowl each of the
previous four seasons, including back-toback Pac-12 titles, before falling back in
2014 in large part because of its inefficient

offense.
Not this time.
Hogan, who has yet to announce whether
hell return for his final season of eligibility, completed 14 of 20 passes. Wright tied
the bowl record for touchdowns rushing and
the nations second-ranked scoring defense
did the rest.
Without Montgomery on the field, nine
receivers caught passes. Devon Cajuste (four
receptions for 47 yards and two touchdowns)
and tight end Austin Hooper (five receptions
for 71 yards) led the way.
Fifth-year senior Ricky Seale also ran for
his first career touchdown a 1-yard plunge
that put Stanford up 42-7 early in the fourth
for a feel-good moment to cap the
Cardinals season.
Stanfords 40-12 victory over Virginia
Tech in the 2011 Orange Bowl was its previous highest-scoring postseason performance.

Lions Suh has suspension reduced, can play Sunday


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK Lions defensive tackle


Ndamukong Suh can play in Detroits wildcard game after his one-game NFL suspension
was reduced to a $70,000 fine.
Hearing officer Ted Cottrell heard Suhs
expedited appeal Tuesday and ruled that Suh
can play Sunday at Dallas but must pay the
fine.
Suh originally was suspended for stepping
on Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers left leg
twice last Sunday in a loss to Green Bay for the
NFC North title. He stepped on Rodgers once
with each foot, which violated unnecessary
roughness rules, according to the league.
But Cottrell, jointly appointed by the NFL

and the players union, rescinded the suspension.


The Lions said they would not comment
until Wednesday, when Suh will be available at
their training complex.
One Cowboys defensive player, end Jeremy
Mincey, seemed surprised by Cottrells decision.
I didnt understand that, Mincey said.
Youve got to play the game the right way.
Im not knocking him. I like his intensity. I
love how hard he plays. But there comes a
point where youve got to think before you
react.
Sometimes it happens. Ive done plays
like what Suh did, so Im not mad at him. It
happens like that sometimes. Youre frustrat-

ed, youre down and youre losing and things


like that.
Suh has a long list of fines and one previous
suspension, for two games in 2011 for stepping on the right arm of Packers lineman Evan
Dietrich-Smith. Suh has been fined eight
times in his career, but this is the first in
2014.
Suh was fined $100,000 for an illegal block
on Vikings center John Sullivan in Week 1 of
2013 during an interception return. That was
the largest fine in NFL history for on-field
conduct, not counting suspensions.
The suspension was imposed Monday by
Merton Hanks, the NFLs vice president of
football operations. Hanks ruled that Suh
engaged in a non-football act that placed his

opponent at unnecessary risk of injury.


In his letter to Suh, Hanks wrote, You did
not respond in the manner of someone who
had lost his balance and accidentally contacted another player who was lying on the
ground. This illegal contact, specifically the
second step and push off with your left foot,
clearly could have been avoided.
Hanks further noted you unnecessarily
stepped on your opponents unprotected leg
as he lay on the ground unable to protect himself.
Cottrells decision means the Lions will
have one of their key defensive cogs. Suh finished the season with a team-high 8 1/2 sacks
and helped Detroit rank second overall and
first in run defense.

Menlo tops Hillsdale for 3rd place honors

FRIDAY

By Terry Bernal

Boys basketball

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Its all a matter of persistence for


Menlo girls basketball.
Menlo (7-2) took the third-place
game at the Steve Geramoni
Invitational Tuesday night with a
convincing 46-38 win over
Hillsdale (5-3). It wasnt nearly
Menlos shooting prowess that
won it. Menlo shot just 15 percent
from the floor throughout. But it
was the tenacity via offensive
rebounding that won the day.
While shooting 12 of 80 from
the field, Menlo grabbed 42
rebounds in the game, including
23 offensive boards. Menlo for-

ward Mackenzie Duffner had a


game-high 12 rebounds.
Thats something weve been able
to do all season, Menlo head coach
John Paye said. We started making
that a point of emphasis at the beginning of the season. And the girls have
really taken to it right.
The first half was a good back-andforth battle which saw the lead
change hands five times. While
Hillsdale all-tournament guard
Rachiel Tjan was coming off a 19point performance in Mondays
semifinal loss to Notre Dame
Belmont, Menlo was able to limit the
sophomore to two points.
Menlo point guard Sam Erisman
also earned all-tourney honors. The

sophomore scored a game-high 15


points. But it was her part of in the
swarming full-court press that helped
Menlo get out front for good midway
through the second quarter.
After Erisman hit a free throw to tie
it 15-15, she and guards Hannah Paye
and DeJeane Stine menaced Hillsdale
for the remainder of the half. Coming
off the bench, Stine totaled three
steals in the second quarter, including
back-to-back steals with nothing to
show for it with two Menlo misses.
Menlo finally gained the advantage when Anna Miller weaved
through traffic in a half-court set to
find Olivia Ferrando in the flat.
Ferrando hit a jumper to stake Menlo
to a 17-15 lead. After Hillsdale

evened it up again at 17-17, Erisman


found a lane to give Menlo the lead
with a layup at 19-17.
Menlo would go into halftime
with a 24-19 lead.
Stine totaled four steals and four
rebounds in the game. She also hit
her lone field goal of the game near
the start of the second half, a 3-pointer to give Menlo a 30-20 lead.
We just made sure to attack the
basket and make every shot we
can, Stine said. Dont worry about
weather its going in or not, just
play as hard as you can.
Hillsdales three loses this season to Valley Christian, Notre
Dame and Menlo have all been
to private schools.

that they have no seniors on roster.


Its familiar territory for a team that
nished in fth place in the Santa
Clara Athletic League De Anza
Division last season, while nishing with a 13-13 overall record.
After earning their 10th win in 11
games Tuesday, and with one game
still remaining Saturday at MenloAtherton before league play begins,
the Vikings are just three victories
shy of their win total from all of last
year.
Weve been beat on for the last
two years we have no seniors
and now theyre just getting more
condent, Peters said.
The condence was in full swing
when center Alexis Harris produced
back-to-back blocked shots in the
fourth quarter. With Paly leading 46-

35, it was the one glimmer of a


comeback Notre Dame glimpsed in
the second half.
But Harris rejected one Notre
Dame half-court set with the pair of
blocks on the interior. The Tigers
kept the score in check and regained
possession, pushing the ball down
court. But as Notre Dame pulled up
for a 10-foot jumper, Harris leaped
from a distance towards the shooter.
And while she wasnt close enough
to block a shot attempt, her presence alone caused the shooter to
rethink the shot, and instead
attempted an impromptu pass into
the post that went ying out of
bounds for a turnover.
Pastorino still showed plenty of
moxie for Notre Dame. The senior
scored a team-high 13 points and

added four rebounds, four assists and


three steals.

HARBAUGH
Continued from page 11
The famously condent Harbaugh stopped short of any real
bluster as he took the reins of the storied program. After all,
he inherits a team that has lost 10 of its last 11 games to archrival Ohio State and six of its last seven to Michigan State. If
those two rivals were looking for bulletin board material from
Harbaugh, he didnt give them much not yet, at least.
Theyre outstanding programs. No, I make no guarantees,
he said. I made a guarantee a long time ago, and Ive learned
from that, and Ive grown. I understand that you dont make
guarantees.
Harbaughs seven-year deal is worth about $40 million, not
counting performance bonuses. His $5 million annual salary
increases by 10 percent after years three and ve, and he also
received a $2 million signing bonus. He can receive bonuses
based on Big Ten championships, bowl appearances, coaching awards and team academic performance. Following a
review by the athletic director after next season, Michigan will
also determine a deferred compensation arrangement.
Michigans new coach has his work cut out for him in a Big
Ten East Division thats now full of big-name coaches. Urban
Meyer is preparing Ohio State for this weeks seminal
against Alabama in the inaugural College Football Playoff.

Michigan States Mark Dantonio has built a program that has


staying power. Penn State is on the rise and Wisconsin and
Nebraska are ahead of the Wolverines in performance and talent.
This past season was the third time in seven years Michigan
nished with a losing record. The programs most recent sub.500 season before this dismal stretch came in 1967, two years
before Schembechler began his run as coach.
Nothing Michigan has tried lately seemed to work for any
extended period of time. Rich Rodriguez had tremendous success at West Virginia before taking over at Michigan after the
2007 season. But the transition was shaky and he was red
after three years. Brady Hoke took over and went 31-20, but his
team looked worse each season and he was let go early this
month.
The longer Michigans coaching search went on, the more
obvious it became that the school was focused on Harbaugh,
who was nally available after his NFL season ended Sunday.
The 51-year-old Harbaugh coached the San Francisco 49ers to
three straight NFC championship games, but the team missed
the playoffs this season at 8-8 and he left in what both sides
called a mutual decision.
Now he returns to Michigan, where the fan base has become
a bit fractured and even apathetic of late.
Those two problems seem to have been solved already.
Jim is going to have the support of the great, great majority of the Michigan family, said Lloyd Carr, who coached the
Wolverines to a national title during the 1997 season.

BUMGARNER
Continued from page 11
He had just thrown 270 innings, including 21 with two
wins and a save in a World Series that went the distance
against the fellow wild-card Royals.
I got a splinter in my nger the other day. That was kind
of painful, Bumgarner quipped, sounding perfectly serious.
Fortunately, it was on my right hand.
Bruce Bochys 25-year-old workhorse has earned the managers trust that he will speak up if anything ever feels off
with his arm. Otherwise, hes going to keep getting the ball.
With that tricky cross-body, three-quarters delivery
resembling a sling shot Bumgarner shows hitters the ball
briey with an outstretched arm before that rapid release and
suddenly its right there leaving batters bafed.
On two days rest in Game 7, that day he sat with Peavy in
Kansas City, he pitched ve scoreless innings of relief in a
3-2 win.
Only after that would Bumgarner acknowledge he might
need a mental and physical break at last after tossing a record
52 2-3 postseason innings.
You know what? I cant lie to you anymore, he said. Im
a little tired now.
Pitching coach Dave Righetti began elding inquiries
before the World Series began about whether Bumgarner had
the chance to make three appearances. He knew it could happen, though it wasnt exactly planned.
You dont realize when youre in the middle of the eye,
Wow, what this guys doing is so special, Righetti said.
That really hasnt been done in years. ... When youve got
a healthy guy whos on a roll, those are the kind of guys who
change big series and do special things.
The Giants locked up Bumgarner long-term in April 2012
on a $35.56 million, six-year contract through 2017. It
could keep him in orange and black even longer, given the
$12 million options for the 2018 and 2019 seasons. That
almost seems like a bargain now given Bumgarners performance and star power on baseballs biggest stage.
Bumgarner was MVP of the World Series and NL
Championship Series, going 4-1 during the postseason following an 18-10 regular season.
From his four-hit, 10-strikeout gem that got things started in an 8-0 wild-card win at Pittsburgh all the way through
his brilliant relief outing in Game 7 of the World Series,
Bumgarner dazzled like never before.
He pitched a different game than we had seen from him
earlier in the season, Pirates manager Clint Hurdle recalled
recently. We had watched video and saw how much sharper
he had gotten as the season played out. In the wild-card game
he had command of all his pitches and lived on the edges the
entire outing. He also used his fastball up in the zone with
deadly accuracy.
Bumgarner made the rounds on the post-Series appearance
circuit, then took a break to attend a rodeo.
Despite the heavy workload, Bumgarner will be eager for
spring training come February.
Everything feels great and were looking to just keep a
normal offseason and a normal routine, Bumgarner said.
It will hardly be normal given the attention and hype he is
sure to generate after a spectacular 2014.
I just love the way hes handled everything, all the attention, Righetti said. It looks like hes stayed the same.

Simple and healthy lentil


salad tastes anything but
By Eliabeth Karmel
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

When I was in high school, my


parents took my sisters and me to
Paris. That trip shaped me in so
many ways, most of them culinary.
So many of the dishes I make even
today were inspired by that trip.
One night, we went to a small,
rustic restaurant in the heart of the
city. The meal started with hunks of
cheese, sausages, cornichons and a
bowl of country caviar. The
bread, cheese and meat were as delicious as you would expect, but it
was that last item that blew us away.
Its hard to believe that a trio of
sisters from the South would get so
excited over a bowl of what basically was just a cold lentil salad. But
these lentils were different than the
Indian lentils we had eaten in dal.
They were small, greenish-black in
color and didnt lose their shape.
It was evident why the restaurant
referred to the dish as country
caviar. It looked like caviar. The
lentils were perfectly cooked so
that they were creamy and popped a
little in your mouth. They were
dressed simply with a homemade
vinaigrette slightly pungent with
sharp Dijon mustard and red wine
vinegar. Minced shallots, carrot
and curly parsley added color,
crunch and flavor. The dish was
simple, but the combination was
rich and the texture addictive.

We couldnt stop eating it. I asked


the owner of the restaurant what
they were, and he wrote the name,
Lentilles du Puy down on a piece
of paper and told me I could buy
them at a little grocer nearby.
Lentilles du Puy often labeled
green French lentils in the U.S.
are grown in the rugged mountainous region of Auvergne in the South
of France. Only those grown near
Puy-en-Velay can be called lentilles
du Puy. They are grown in volcanicrich soil and much like old vine
grapes are left to grow with no fertilizer or watering, giving them far
more flavor. Like other lentils,
they are high in protein and fiber.
But you will make them because
they taste so good, are easy and
very satisfying.
Happily, the recipe traveled well
and my sisters and I make the salad
often. It is a side dish that goes with
just about everything. And this
time of year, when I am paying
penance for all my holiday indulgences, I am excited to make food
that is both healthy and delicious.

FRENCH LENTIL SALAD


Start to finish: 25 minutes
Servings: 4
1 cup dried small green lentils
(French lentils or lentilles de Puy)
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
3 tablespoon red wine vinegar
Kosher salt and ground black
pepper

Lentilles du Puy often labeled green French lentils in the U.S. are grown in the rugged mountainous region
of Auvergne in the South of France.
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 small carrot, finely chopped
2 medium shallots, chopped
2 tablespoons chopped fresh
curly parsley
Place the lentils in a mesh strainer and rinse with cool water. Discard
any gravel or other debris.
Place the lentils in a 4-quart
saucepan, then add enough water to
cover by 2 inches. Set over medium-high heat and bring to a gentle
boil. Reduce the heat to mediumlow, then simmer until the lentils
are just tender but not falling apart,

about 15 minutes. When lentils are


done, drain them, then return them
to the saucepan and cover. Set
aside.
In a small bowl, whisk together
the mustard, vinegar and a pinch
each of salt and pepper. While continuing to whisk, drizzle in the oil
and whisk until fully combined and
emulsified.
Drain any lingering liquid from
the lentils, then place them in a
medium bowl. Add the vinaigrette,
carrot, shallots and parsley. Toss
gently, taking care not to smash

the lentils. Taste and adjust the


vinegar and salt, if necessary. The
dressing should have a hint of mustard and enough acidity to offset the
richness of the lentils.
Serve the salad warm, room temperature or chilled. Keeps in the
refrigerator for up to 3 days.

High heat turns cabbage into a dinnertime winner


By Melissa DArabian
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Roasting cabbage brings out its sweetness, as well as a delicious earthiness.

My grandmother, who lived to be 92,


always said the key to her good health was
that whenever possible, she ate cabbage.
Now if that isnt a motto worth needlepointing somewhere, I dont what is...
But maybe Grandma was on to something. Cabbage is full of vitamins, as well
as calcium and iron. And 1 cup of it has only
about 20 calories, so you can load it onto
your plate without worrying about your
waistline.
What my grandmother didnt tell me was
exactly how she proposed eating so much
cabbage. I mean, cabbage doesnt exactly
pull in clamoring crowds. Most people
arent all that excited about it thanks to its
rubbery texture when raw, its potent cruciferous taste, and its somewhat unappealing
sulfuric smell when cooked.
So lets avoid all of that. But can I talk
you into roasting your cabbage?
Roasting cabbage brings out its sweetness, as well as a delicious earthiness. Pair
it with some aromatics like onion, shallot
or garlic and a hearty spice, then youve got
a dish that is downright tasty. Even my husband loves my roasted cabbage recipe, and
he usually is a cabbage holdout.
The secret to making this cabbage delicious cutting the cabbage correctly and
roasting it at high heat. You want the oven
hot enough to crisp up the edges just
enough to impart some roasted smokiness.
But the interior of the cabbage should
remain just tender, not mushy or steamed.
Another hint: Add some spice, sweetness
and tartness to the cabbage. In my curried
roasted cabbage, I use a hot curry powder
and balance the spice with tangy-tart apples

and dried currants (though golden raisins


would be fine, too). The result is something
that I think my grandma would have loved.

CURRIED ROASTED CABBAGE


Start to finish: 25 minutes
Servings: 4
1 medium head green cabbage
1 yellow onion, sliced into thick wedges
2 Granny Smith apples, peeled and sliced
into 8 wedges each
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon curry powder, hot or mild
Kosher salt and ground black pepper
1/4 cup currants
1/4 cup toasted almonds slivers
Lemon wedges, to serve
Heat the oven to 400 F. Line a rimmed
baking sheet with foil.
Cut the cabbage into quarters, then cut out
the thick stem and core from each piece and
discard. Slice each quarter into 4 wedges for
a total of 16 pieces.
In a large bowl, combine the cabbage
wedges with the onion and apples, then
drizzle with the olive oil and toss gently to
coat. Sprinkle the curry powder over everything, coating all sides of the cabbage mixture. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer
the mixture to the prepared baking sheet.
Bake until tender and all sides are golden,
about 20 minutes, turning halfway through.
Sprinkle the currants and almonds over
the cabbage, then toss lightly to mix.
Serve with lemon wedges.

Dieting pickle? Use quick pickles as healthy snack


I

n terms of healthy eating,


snacking is my downfall.
So long as I abstain, Im
fine. But once I start, I cant stop.
But we all know that abstention
isnt realistic, at least not in the
long run. Conventional wisdom
has always been that rather than
deprive yourself of snacks, you
should make healthier choices
about them. Not a horrible idea...
And you often hear the suggestion to keep a bowl of cut and
ready-to-eat vegetables such as
carrot sticks and celery in the
refrigerator to satisfy those
urges.
As if. When Im feeling like
polishing off a loaf of bread and
half a pound of cheese, a bunch of
carrot sticks arent going to do it
for me.
It took many years for me to
realize there are ways to make
this otherwise silly advice work.
Ive discovered there are things I
can do to carrot sticks (aside from
dunk them in sour cream) and
other veggies to render them way
more satisfying, yet still healthy.
And I found that while these doctored veggies in no way can be
confused with a bag of potato
chips, they can be satisfying
enough to prevent me from inhaling the refrigerator.
One of my favorite ways is to
turn the vegetables into a quick
pickle. Turns out that bathing
them in a salty-tangy-sweet brine

can radically
up their
appeal. The
best part is
that these
veggies are
fast and simple to prepare,
and its easy
to double or
triple the
recipe to make
sure you have
ample healthy munchies on hand.

J.M. HIRSCH

QUICK-PICKLED
CARROTS AND RADISHES
Dont fret too much over how
you cut your carrots. The trick
really is just to get all of the
pieces roughly the same size.
Usually if Im dealing with medium to large carrots, I cut off the
bottom half and leave it as is, or
cut it in half lengthwise. Then I
cut the upper half into quarters
lengthwise. But feel free to cut
shorter lengths as you see fit.
Start to finish: 20 minutes, plus
cooling
Servings: 8
3 cups cider vinegar
1 cup sugar
1/4 cup kosher salt
1 teaspoon cumin seeds
1 teaspoon caraway seeds
1 teaspoon yellow mustard seeds
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder

Bathing carrots and radishes in a salty-tangy-sweet brine can radically up their appeal.
2 pounds carrots, peeled,
trimmed and cut into spears
1 pound red radishes, trimmed
and quartered
In a large saucepan over medium-high heat, combine the vinegar, sugar, salt, cumin, caraway,
mustard seeds, garlic powder and
onion powder. Bring to a simmer,

stirring often, until the salt and


sugar are dissolved. Add the carrots and radishes, then bring to a
boil. Cook for 5 minutes, then
set aside off the heat until cool.
Once the vegetables are cool,
use a slotted spoon to transfer
them to a jar or bowl. Ladle just
enough of the liquid over the veg-

etables to cover them. Cover and


refrigerate for up to 7 days.

POOL
Continued from page 1
energizer and arthritis classes cant be
held due to alternate site space restrictions. Morning boot camp will be
offered for a select period and BAC is
working on confirming the option to
run some evening fitness classes. All
masters water polo conducted through
BAC will be suspended.
Its such a vibrant, dynamic, positive addition to the community, said
Kim Decker, who has participated in
the masters swimming program since
2012. Like many people who come to
swimming, I had come to swimming
from running. Its a two-minute bike
ride from where I live. Its my community. I live alone. I work from home.
Its the one time of the day I get out of
the house and interact with other people.
Decker said swimming with the BAC
has made a hugely positive effect in
her life and that the closure will be a
huge inconvenience since shell have
to drive up to CSM before 5:30 a.m.
Not being a born swimmer, her skills
cant afford to take a month off, she
said, as shell lose the muscle memory.
My plan right now is to be ambitious and try to make that three times a
week, she said. As a sign of my
determination, I took my car into the
shop today because I never drive it.

Maybe Ill just find a gym where I can

valuable to me is having a coach barking out sets and intervals. It keeps you
honest and makes you a better swimmer.
At the same time, the district and
city of Burlingame are trying to come
to an agreement on pool usage and
payments breakdowns. Earlier in
December, the district threatened a
lawsuit over the city not responding to
its requests for more space for its water
polo teams and for the citys maintenance payments for the pool from 65
percent to 91 percent, plus 5 percent
overhead. The district contends that it
uses the pool 9 percent of the time, but
is paying operational costs amounting
to 35 percent. Originally, an anonymous donor provided $1.2 million for
the pool, while $1.6 million came
from the city and $300,000 came from
the district. The donor believes the
district is making bogus claims about
the citys usage of the pool and is
propping up stories for why the district needs more use of the pool.
In the future, the district would like
to be able to have access to the pool
13 percent of the time. The city said
the breakdown of the citys usage is
more like 69. 92 percent and has
offered to pay that, plus 5 percent
overhead, along with 50 percent of
capital costs for the 2013-14 fiscal
year. The city proposed going forward
this number would be adjusted yearly
based on the previous years actual

usage. Trustee Linda Lees Dwyer


explained the board is forming a committee to analyze the city proposal to
reach an amicable resolution by early
2015.
Back in early December, members
expressed their concerns to the school
board about the pool closing for a
month, including John Yeager, a longtime resident of Burlingame.
My four boys all benefited from the
pool, he said. I just wish that there
could be some kind of agreement on
how it gets used because Ive got a 6year-old who wants to swim.
Burlingame resident Jeff Byrd noted
the facility is extraordinary and that
its the envy of every place that he
travels.
Previously, Suze Gardner, executive
director of the BAC, explained that the
closure was going to be detrimental to
a championship swim meet scheduled
at the end of January that swimmers
need to train for beforehand.
Theyve been training for that
since the end of August, she said at a
December school board meeting. We
are not advocating maintenance not be
done, our request is simply that its
organized as efficiently as possible.
We love the pool, we want to be
able to use it; thats what its about.
The pool closes Dec. 31 and reopens

tively warm, delivering above-average


rainfall to most of the state while providing a modest early winter snowpack.
The water content of the snow measured Tuesday was about 33 percent of
average.
Statewide, 105 electronic sensors in
the Sierra detected a water content of
about 50 percent of the multi-year
average for the day. That compares
favorably with last winters first survey, when the snowpack water content
statewide was only 20 percent of normal, which tied with 2012 as the driest
readings on record.
Tuesdays readings indicate that
water content in the northern mountains is 20 percent of the average on
April 1, when it normally peaks before
the spring melt.

The Department of Water Resources


and other agencies conduct manual
snow surveys around the first of the
month between January and May to
check the accuracy of real-time electronic readings.
More snow is good news for those
heading to the mountains to celebrate
the arrival of 2015.
Skiers have certainly enjoyed the
early season snow storms, and cold
temperatures have offered ideal conditions for snowmaking, said Rachael
Woods, a spokeswoman for Northstar
