El Nio will bring heavy rain

Wednesday morning as a series of
storms will hit the Bay Area through
Saturday, according to the National
Weather Service.
Although Tuesdays rain caused
problems throughout the region, San
Mateo County was spared from any

major damage from the storm. Only
about an inch of rain was recorded in
most locations in the county Tuesday,
said National Weather Service
Meteorologist Will Pi.

SAN FRANCISCO Forced by

drought to become miserly with water,
Californians were warned against
reverting to old habits Tuesday as the
first of several storms spawned by a
record-tying El Nio began drenching
the state.
A series of storms lining up over the
Pacific Ocean was welcome news in
parched California, despite their
potential for causing flash floods and
mudslides.
But authorities cautioned that even
the wettest of winters cant replenish
depleted reservoirs and aquifers unless
everyone keeps pitching in.
Californias water deficit is so deep
after four years of drought that a

Chinatown racketeering,
murder trial goes to jury
By Janie Har
SAN FRANCISCO An attorney for a

man charged with murder and racketeering
in an organized crime case centered in San
Franciscos Chinatown railed Tuesday
against federal prosecutors for using what
he called secret surveillance and shady witnesses against an innocent man.
However, the prosecutor maintained in
her closing argument that Raymond
Shrimp Boy Chow was an unrepentant
liar and mastermind behind an enterprise
that engaged in drug trafficking, money
laundering and sales of stolen cigarettes
and alcohol.
The widely watched case went to a jury
Tuesday after a two-month trial.
J. Tony Serra, Chows lead attorney, said
in his closing argument that the prosecution case was built on shadows of evidence, the echoes of evidence.
He derided the prosecutions use of testimony from Chows alleged co-conspirators and an undercover federal agent who
posed as a member of an East Coast crime
syndicate during the

four-year investigation.
These are snakes,
Serra told jurors. Would
you believe a talking
snake? You will not, no
one will.
Federal
prosecutor
Susan
Badger
on
Raymond Chow Monday urged jurors to
disregard claims that
Chow was a changed man, saying deception was part of his nature.
He is not the victim here, Badger said
during her nearly four-hour presentation.
He is not the worlds most misunderstood
criminal.
As part of a sweeping racketeering case,
prosecutors allege that Chow ordered the
killing of a rival gang leader and conspired to kill another rival.
Chow took the witness stand during the
trial, saying he was innocent of the
charges and had previously renounced his
life of crime.
The undercover FBI agent testified that
he spent hours with Chow and people con-
nected to him at fancy restaurants and

nightclubs, recording many of their conversations.
The agent, who testified under a pseudonym to protect his identity, said Chow
tried to distance himself from any criminal
activity during the probe but repeatedly
accepted money after introducing the
agent to money launderers.
The probe led to the indictment of more
than two dozen people in 2014 and the
racketeering conviction of state Sen.
Leland Yee.
Yee pleaded guilty to a racketeering
count in July alleging he accepted bribes
from Chows associates and is scheduled to
be sentenced Feb. 10.
Chow testified to dealing drugs and getting involved in a street gang but said he
decided to renounce criminal activity after
engaging in meditation.
He denied involvement in the slayings
and said the agent gave him the money
because the agent was looking out for him,
not in exchange for criminal activity.

Barack Obama sheds a tear while delivering a statement on steps the administration is taking to reduce gun violence.
Obama acts alone on gun control

Presidents move on guns may only
have only modest effect on violence
By Ryan J. Foley and Eric Tucker
WASHINGTON
President
Barack Obamas move to tighten
controls on guns could curb the
unregulated buying and selling of
weapons over the Internet and at gun
shows. But the overall effect on violence in the U.S. could prove to be
modest.
Its not ever going to be difficult
to get a firearm, just like its not
ever going to be difficult to get illegal drugs, said James Jacobs, a New
York University law school professor. What makes us think that we
can now create a regime that will
make guns hard to obtain for someone who wants to obtain them?
The president used his executive
authority Tuesday to clarify that
anyone in the business of selling
firearms must obtain a federal
license and conduct background
checks on prospective buyers,
regardless of where the sales take
place.
Currently, many private sellers
online and at gun shows do not
bother to get licenses, and weapons
sales over the Internet have become
a booming business.
The White House and others cant
s ay h o w man y t ran s act i o n s t h e
s t ep wi l l b l o ck o r h o w much
bloodshed it may prevent.

But the new controls probably
wouldnt have prevented many of
the grisly mass shootings around
the country that have led to demands
for tighter gun laws, and may affect
only a tiny fraction of the nations
30,000 annual gun deaths.
Studies in the last decade have
shown that criminals are more likely to get guns directly from friends
or other social connections than at
gun shows or flea markets.
The presidents action has potential impact the degree or the type,
its hard to predict, said University
of Pennsylvania professor Susan
Sorenson, who studies violence prevention. And its really important
to acknowledge that we cant just
have one change and expect that to
change things wildly.
The president also called for the
hiring of more than 230 additional
examiners and other staff to process
the millions of background checks
received annually.
Yet even with added manpower,
theres no way to completely eliminate human error like the clerical
mistake that allowed Dylann Roof,
the young man charged in the
Charleston, South Carolina, church
massacre, to buy a weapon even
though he should have been disqualified because of a drug arrest.

WASHINGTON Tears streaking

his cheeks, President Barack Obama
launched a final-year push Tuesday to
tighten sales of firearms in the U.S.,
using his presidential powers in the
absence of tougher gun restrictions
that Congress has refused to pass.
The president struck a combative
tone as he came out with plans for
expanded background checks and other
modest measures that have drawn consternation from gun rights groups,
which Obama accused of making
Congress their hostage. Palpable, too,
was Obamas extreme frustration at
having made such little progress on
gun control since the slaughter of 20
first-graders in Connecticut confronted the nation more than three years
ago.
First-graders, Obama said woefully, resting his chin on his hand and
wiping away tears as he recalled the
2012 massacre at Sandy Hook
Elementary School. Every time I
think about those kids, it gets me
mad.
Obamas 10-point plan to keep guns
from those who shouldnt have them
marked a concession by the president:
Hell leave office without securing the
new gun control laws hes repeatedly
and desperately implored Congress to
pass.
Although Obama, acting alone, can
take action around the margins, only
Congress can enact more sweeping
changes that gun control advocates
say are the only way to truly stem a
scourge of mass shootings.
WASHINGTON In his blueprint for a stronger Navy,

the sea services new top boss, Adm. John M. Richardson,
is blunt about what he thinks matters
most: nuclear punch.
Battling terrorists is todays problem,
but in looking toward a farther horizon,
Richardson wants a Navy built to counter
unpredictable future threats from other
countries. No. 1 on his list is a new fleet
of nuclear-armed submarines, known as
boomers, that prowl the oceans as the
quiet centerpiece of the nations nuclear
John
force. The Navy plans to replace the curRichardson
rent fleet of 14 Ohio-class boomers,
which began service as early as 1981,
with 12 next-generation subs.
This is foundational to our survival as a nation,
Richardson writes in what he calls his design for the future,
released Tuesday.
It also is a gigantic investment, estimated at $100 billion. Even one of the projects biggest supporters, Sen.
Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., calls the cost staggering.
And it happens to be just one of three efforts by the
Pentagon to modernize the U.S. nuclear triad - new longrange bomber aircraft, new or upgraded land-based intercontinental ballistic missiles and new missile-toting submarines. The price tag for these, plus related upgrades and
replacements, is likely to approach $348 billion by 2024,
according to the Congressional Budget Office.
Richardson acknowledges the expense but argues it is
part of the cost of doing business on the world stage.
From a security standpoint in this day and age, a worldclass nuclear capability is required to be considered a great
power, he said Dec. 31 in an Associated Press interview.
Without it, we could be threatened or coerced by another
nation who could hold this nuclear threat over our heads,
he added.
Russia and China are both modernizing their nuclear
forces, although not every expert agrees that this alone justifies to do the same, at huge expense.
GOP candidates call for end to

stigma around drug addiction
By Kathleen Ronayne
HOOKSETT, N.H. Republican presidential hopefuls

called for a more compassionate discussion around drug
addiction Tuesday, with emphasis on substance abuse as a
curable disease, not a moral failing.
This is a national calling, former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush
said at the New Hampshire Forum on Addiction and the
Heroin Epidemic. We should be able to talk about this
without all the stigma attached to it. We need to eliminate
the stigma.
Home to the nations first 2016 presidential primary and
a state thats seen drug deaths skyrocket in recent years,
New Hampshires prominent place on the campaign calendar has turned drug addiction into a hot-button issue on the
campaign trail. Health officials estimate that about 400
people died from overdoses in New Hampshire in 2015
including heroin and the powerful opiate fentanyl more
than doubling its own rate of overdose deaths in 2013.
Candidates have taken to visiting a peer-recovery center
in Manchester, attending drug roundtables at local hospitals and sharing stories they hear on the trail from New
Hampshire voters battling addiction. Former Florida Gov.
Jeb Bush and technology executive Carly Fiorina spoke
about how frequently they meet people on the trail in New
Hampshire who share their struggles with addiction or talk
about family members who lost their lives to drugs.

Leader of armed group wants

land transfer, then will leave
By Rebecca Booone
BURNS, Ore. A leader of the small, armed

group that is occupying a remote national
wildlife preserve in Oregon said Tuesday they
will go home when a plan is in place to turn
over management of federal lands to locals.
Ammon Bundy told reporters at the Malheur
National Wildlife Refuge that ranchers, loggers and farmers should have control of federal land a common refrain in a decades-long
fight over public lands in the West.
It is our goal to get the logger back to logging, the rancher back to ranching, said the

Marijuana deal gone

bad leads to three arrests
An alleged marijuana deal led to three
arrests when it went bad on New Years Eve
in San Bruno, according to police.
Officers were dispatched to a business in
the 300 block of San Bruno Avenue at 10:42
p.m. Thursday, on a report of a physical
altercation.
Arriving officers talked with three people
who said theyd arranged to buy 2 pounds of
marijuana from an acquaintance.
The buyers gave a large sum of money to
the suspects, who then fled the scene in a
vehicle without providing the marijuana,
according to police.
Officers found a vehicle nearby containing three suspects and a large sum of money
but no marijuana. Police arrested all three on
suspicion of grand theft and criminal conspiracy.
The trio, Elisa Johnson, 20, of Clearlake;
Ian Marshall, 34, of Pembroke Pines,
Florida; and Herman Wilson, 49, of
Clearlake, were booked into the San Mateo
County Jail.
Anyone with information about the case

executive search that
began in 2015 as a result
of the retirement of Chief
Jim Skinner. Maupins
appointment is effective
as of Monday.
Following an extensive national search, I
am confident Stan is the
Stan Maupin best choice for the future
of both the City of
Redwood City and San Carlos communities, said Stevenson Diaz. Stans extensive fire experience and leadership put him
at the top of the candidate list and will serve
our communities well. I also found the high
level of respect of both cities fire personnel
and fire leadership a critical aspect to his
continued success leading both departments
and protecting our communities.
Maupin has more than 27 years experience in the fire service and more than 13
years of executive level leadership. An
eight-year veteran of the Redwood City Fire
Department, Maupin has served as deputy
chief of the department and as San Carlos
fire chief since 2011. He replaced Skinner
who retired in May and stayed through
Diazs appointment last year. Maupins
annual salary is $230,616.
Man who stole from business owner

pleads no contest to elder abuse
A 29-year-old San Francisco man pleaded
no contest Monday to felony elder abuse for
stealing nearly $87,000 from a bakery and
check cashing business owner in Redwood
City in May, prosecutors said.
Sean Robinson entered the plea in
exchange for a maximum sentence of two
years in state prison, according to the San
Local briefs
Mateo County District Attorneys Office.
Robinson and a 21-year-old co-defendant
were accused of stealing from the 82-yearold victim who had just withdrawn $86,900
from a Wells Fargo bank for his business and
was getting gas at the Woodside Gas and
Shop at 895 Woodside Road at about 9:50
a.m. on May 23, prosecutors said.
The pair allegedly entered the victims
vehicle and stole the bank envelope containing the cash. When the victim confronted the suspects, they pushed him to the
ground and fled in a stolen Dodge
Challenger that was later found abandoned
on El Camino Real, prosecutors said.
The victim suffered minor injuries in the
confrontation.
Prosecutors also on Monday moved to dismiss all charges against the 21-year-old codefendant because of insufficient evidence.
Robinsons attorney Eric Safire declined
to comment on the case.
Two-alarm fire at downtown

Half Moon Bay businesses
A two-alarm fire was extinguished at a
business in Half Moon Bay Tuesday morning, a San Mateo County fire dispatcher
said.
The fire was reported at 10:44 a.m. at 401
Main St. and was under control as of 11:35
a.m., according to dispatchers.
The Half Moon Bay Inn and the Its Italia
restaurant are located at that address. Neither
business was immediately available to comment on the fire.
No injuries were reported in the fire,
according to dispatchers.
Money stolen in home burglary

Police are looking for a residential burglary suspect who allegedly broke into a San
Bruno home in the early morning New Years
Day.
Police responded to a residence in the 800
block of Commodore Drive around 3:02
a.m. on report of a burglary.
According to police, the suspect entered
the home through a sliding glass door and
took an undisclosed amount of money.
Police said they searched the area but were
unable to locate the suspect.

Deliberate acts cause more

airline deaths than accidents
By Joan Lowy
In recent years, airline

safety has improved very considerably
to the point where, typically, there are now
very few fatal accidents and fatalities in a year.
WASHINGTON There were more

airline deaths worldwide due to deliberate acts in 2015 than to accidental air
crashes for the second year in a row,
according to an industry tally.
There were only eight accidental airline crashes last year accounting for
161 passenger and crew deaths the
fewest crashes and deaths since at least
1946. The tally by Flightglobal, an
aviation news and industry data company, excludes a German airliner that
was deliberately flown into a mountainside in the French Alps last March,
and a Russian airliner packed with
tourist that exploded over Egypt in
October. The toll for those two incidents was 374 killed.
In 2014, the toll from a Malaysia
Airlines plane that disappeared and
Paul Hayes, Flightglobals director of air safety and insurance
another that was shot down over

Ukraine was 537 deaths compared to
436 accident deaths that year.
In recent years, airline safety has
improved very considerably to the
point where, typically, there are now
very few fatal accidents and fatalities
in a year, said Paul Hayes,
Flightglobals director of air safety
and insurance. However, flight security remains a concern.
Although some years are better than
others, the fatal accident rate has been
improving for many years. The global
fatal accident rate for all types of airline operations in 2015 was one per 5
million flights, the best year ever. The
previous best year was 2014, with a
fatal accident rate of 1 per 2.5 million
flights. Airline operations are now
about four or five times safer than they
were 20 years ago.
Those tallies are for all types of airline flights, including cargo, positioning, training, and maintenance
flights. There were just 98 paying passengers killed last year in accidental
crashes compared to 790 in 2007.

One U.S. service member killed,
two wounded in Afghan attack
WORLD
THE DAILY JOURNAL
By Robert Burns
WASHINGTON One U.S. service member was killed

and two were wounded in fighting Tuesday in southern
Afghanistan, the U.S. military command in Kabul said.
The fighting, which reflects intensified efforts by the
U.S. and its Afghan partners to push back against recent
Taliban gains, was near the city of Marja, Helmand
province, which shares a border with Pakistan. The Taliban
in recent weeks have focused their efforts on retaking parts
of Helmand, and the U.S. has countered with U.S. special
operations forces working with Afghan troops.
Details on the battle were sketchy.
In a brief written statement announcing the three U.S.
casualties, the U.S. military command in Kabul said one
died of wounds sustained during operations in Marja, and
that two were wounded. The statement did not identify their
service branch. Two U.S. officials said they were special
operation troops.
We are deeply saddened by this loss, said Brig. Gen.
Wilson A. Shoffner, a spokesman for U. S. forces in
Afghanistan. Speaking for Gen. John Campbell, the top
U.S. commander in Afghanistan, Shoffner said, our heartfelt sympathies go out to the families and friends of those
involved.
A U.S. helicopter was sent to evacuate the casualties but
did not immediately take off because of an unspecified problem.
In Kabul, a spokesman for the U.S.-led coalition, Navy
Lt. Cmdr. Ron Flesvig, said the helicopter sent to evacuate
the casualties had landed with a mechanical problem.
North Korea says it conducted

successful hydrogen bomb test

Iraq must walk a fine line

amid Iranian, Saudi tensions
By Susannah George
By Foster Klug and Kim Tong-Hyung

SEOUL, South Korea North Korea said Wednesday it had

conducted a hydrogen bomb test, a defiant and surprising
move that, if confirmed, would put Pyongyang a big step
closer toward improving its still-limited nuclear arsenal.
A television anchor read a typically propaganda-heavy
statement on state TV that said North Korea had tested a
miniaturized hydrogen bomb, elevating the countrys
nuclear might to the next level and providing it with a
weapon to defend against the United States and its other enemies.
The statement said the test was a perfect success.
The test, if confirmed by outside experts, will lead to a
strong push for new, tougher sanctions at the United
Nations and further worsen already abysmal relations
between Pyongyang and its neighbors.
North Korean nuclear tests worry Washington and others
because each new blast is seen as pushing North Koreas scientists and engineers closer to their goal of an arsenal of
nuclear-tipped missiles that can reach the United States.
While a hydrogen bomb is much more powerful than an
atomic bomb, it is also much harder to make.

BAGHDAD While many Iraqi

Shiites took to the streets in outrage
over Saudi Arabias execution of a
prominent Shiite cleric, the countrys
prime minister has had to walk a more
cautious line, trying to contain Iraqs
own explosive sectarian tensions.
The execution of Sheikh Nimr alNimr has inflamed the sectarian divide
across the region. Shiite-led Iran has
been the most vocal in its condemnation, and protesters stormed Saudi
diplomatic missions in Iran over the
weekend. That prompted Sunni-led
Saudi Arabia to cut diplomatic relations with Iran, and the kingdoms
allies have lined up behind it, either
cutting or reducing their ties with
Tehran.
The government of Iraq, however, is
straining to keep the peace amid the
regional tumult. Iran is a key ally of
the Shiite-led government in Baghdad,
has helped it in the fight against the
Islamic State group, and supports powerful Shiite militias in the country.
At the same time, as the fight
against IS extremists enters its second
year, Iraq is grappling with the worst
political and security crises since the
withdrawal of U.S. troops in 2011.
Only last week, Saudi Arabia sent an
ambassador to Baghdad for the first
time in 25 years to try to improve its
relationship with Iraq.
In Washington, Brett McGurk, special presidential envoy for the Global
Coalition to Counter ISIL, said U.S.
Secretary of State John Kerry spent
most of Monday on the phone trying
to ease tensions in the region.
We are encouraging a de-escalation,
because any time you have regional
polarization, regional escalation, it
obviously can cause difficulties and it
opens up seams for extremists on all
sides to take advantage of the situation, McGurk told reporters Tuesday.
In a sign of the Iraqi governments
caution, Prime Minister Haider alAbadi issued a statement expressing
regret over al-Nimrs execution and

warning that such actions would
bring more destruction and devastation.
His office followed that Tuesday with
a call for unity among Iraqis. Regional
tensions should be faced wisely,
responsibly and rationally in order to
preserve the security and stability of
Iraq, according to a statement from alAbadis office.
A day earlier, thousands of Shiites
gathered a few hundred meters (yards)
from his office and called for the government to sever diplomatic ties with
Riyadh. The protesters, supporters of
prominent Shiite cleric Muqtada alSadr, chanted that al-Nimrs blood had
not been spilled in vain and that the
Mahdi Army, Sadrs disbanded Shiite
militia, would avenge his death if
needed.
That points to the governments
bigger fear: That the regional dispute
over al-Nimrs execution will turn into
new violence between Iraqs Shiites
and Sunnis.
OPINION
THE DAILY JOURNAL
Building community through field lights
hile there is some lingering community concern

about a proposal to install
permanent field lights at five of the
six high schools in the San Mateo
Union High School District regarding
noise and neighborhood impact, it is
time to move forward and decide on
installing them.
Burlingame High School is the
only district facility to have permanent field lights, and its presence has
been relatively calm. In fact, one
could argue it has been widely successful for years. The fact that the districts other schools do not have them
is somewhat head-scratching and officials are ready to move forward with
an installation plan.
What has stood in the way is some
concern about the impact, and district
officials have been cognizant of that
and actively working to address concerns that have been brought forth
from neighbors who fear the noise
will be too much and the traffic and
trash will be detrimental to their quality of life.
But let us also look to the benefits.
First of all, field space is at a premium on the Peninsula and having
lights on the fields will allow for
more use later in the day, especially
during winter nights with its earlier
sunsets. Lights will allow more practice time for more teams while not
sacrificing field space or time.
Lights will also allow for the dis-
Editorial
trict to move the school start time
later than 8 a.m., which has been
studied to show more academic success for most students.
Having lights for night games
allows for a community gathering
experience. In this day and age, when
we rue the loss of activities that can
gather the community at large, there
is nothing like a nighttime football
game to draw both young and old
alike and build community through a
common activity like rooting for the
local school and its student athletes.
Put simply, a nighttime football game
is an event, an affordable one, that
can draw the community closer and
build new connections while building
on old ones.
There has also been advances in
lighting technology so that we are no
longer talking about blasting flood
lights blanketing a neighborhood.
Lights can be focused and controlled
so that they only illuminate the field
during practice or games and scaled
back for cleanup. Besides, most field
activity should be wrapped up by 10
p.m. and we are talking about a handful of night games that, in the larger
context of the year, will not have a
great impact on a neighborhood. And
district officials have promised to be
mindful of complaints and potential
problems as they arise. That promise
should be upheld.
Additionally, the district has talked
about allowing the community at
large to use the field for their own
recreational purposes. It is important,
in fact critical, that the district allow
the public to use the public space at
night during practices, as long as
there is not a game that requires controlled admission. The strawman of
miscreants or potential liability from
shared use should not be used to disallow the public from using a community resource. In fact, shared use is a
benefit for the neighborhood that will
be affected by increased use at night.
Ensuring shared use now and into the
future is a key component of this particular proposal. Too often, school
officials point to the liability of
shared use as a reason to close fields
to the public and any movement
toward that only builds ill will and
further shuts out the community members so key in ensuring this is seen as
a win-win possibility.
Field lights have benefits, not only
for the student athletes and student
body, but also the community at
large. It is important that district officials keep their promises when moving forward with this proposal and
ensure impact is kept to a minimum
and access to all within reason
remains. Building community takes
this type of holistic approach and we
are confident the district will move
forward with this in mind.
The landing of SpaceXs Falcon

The Sacramento Bee
he Falcon is not the Eagle.

But the declaration that The
Falcon has landed recalls an
earlier feat, when this nation rst
placed a man on the moon.
Late last month, the words streamed
live from the Southern California
headquarters of SpaceX, the corporation that launched the rocket. Though
barely audible over the pandemonium,
the words were historic. Across the
country at Cape Canaveral Air Force
Station in Florida, Falcon 9 had just
made a awless vertical landing.
It was, as one SpaceX commentator
put it, like launching a pencil over
the Empire State Building, having it
reverse, come back down and land in a
shoe box on the ground in a windstorm. In other words, it was technical feat for the ages.
The landing is a big deal for SpaceX
and for the world. It signals the start
of a new space race, one between
ambitious corporations eager to make
a buck exploring and conquering the
nal frontier. California, with its constellation of aerospace companies,

Other voices
such as SpaceX and Aerojet
Rocketdyne in Rancho Cordova,
could be among the biggest beneciaries of it.
Already, the global space economy
has reached about $330 billion. Its
growing rapidly, according to the
Space Foundation, and most of it
about 75 percent is from commercial activity. Elon Musks SpaceX
proved its possible to expand that
market with reusable rockets.
Until now, most rockets have been
designed as boosters that burn up on
re-entry into Earths atmosphere.
Every time they do, about $60 million disintegrates. That has made
space travel expensive and rare.
The Falcon 9 like Jeff Bezos
suborbital rocket Blue Origin in
November was launched, used on a
mission and brought back to Earth to
be refurbished, refueled and launched
again. It opens the door to treating
spaceships more like airplanes, reducing the cost of each mission from the
millions of dollars to the hundreds of
thousands of dollars.

With that barrier to entry removed,

many more companies could launch

Musk already is talking about establishing a city on the Red Planet.
Talk about a giant leap for mankind.
Earth has come a long way from the
1960s, when the government-led
space race was a vehicle for showing
off nationalism. NASA has an important role, which deserves continued
and expanded support of Congress and
taxpayers.
But the new race will depend on the
cooperation of the private and public
sectors. NASA has infrastructure,
including the landing pads and control rooms. Companies have cash and
the determination to succeed.
Sure, there might be a bit of goodnatured ribbing, as happened between
Bezos and Musk over Twitter after
Falcon 9s landing. But its all in the
spirit of competition and represents
the best of the American spirit.

In 2016?
L
iberty doesnt work as well in practice as it does

in speeches. Will Rogers.
Now that we have been launched into a new year, its
traditionally the time to make New Years resolutions
usually a list of ways to improve ourselves. This year Im
doing something different making a list of seven
things that I hope to see happen in 2016. After reading
the newspapers, watching TV news and talking with others about the state of things in this country today, I chose
the following from a much longer list. Lets hope that in
2016:
1). Tax rates on the
wealthy are increased and
decent minimum wages are
required so that the middle
class (what Robert Reich
calls the anxious class)
doesnt completely disappear, the poor get the help
they need, secure jobs with
benets would again be the
norm and our infrastructure
would get needed repairs,
etc. The anxious class
feels vulnerable to forces
over which they have no
control. Safety nets are
full of holes, most people who lose their jobs dont even
qualify for unemployment insurance and government
wont protect their jobs from being outsourced to Asia or
being taken by a worker here illegally. Reich, San
Francisco Chronicle, Dec. 27, 2015.
2). The FDA will stop allowing certain facets of the food
industry (like Monsanto) to determine what is done to our
food. The FDA will enact a law that will demand products
that are genetically modied or that contain genetically
modied ingredients are labeled. In 1997, the Food and
Drug Administration weakened its rules, which opened the
oodgates for companies to do their own secret safety
evaluations. In other words, companies get to decide
by themselves and in secret whats safe for me and for
you. Michael Jacobson, Center for Science in the
Public Interest.
3). The FDA will regulate the pharmaceutical industry so
it has less control of the prices of our prescription drugs
and they come in line with other developed countries that
regulate such things. It would help greatly if the Citizen
United law were repealed so our legislators wouldnt be
bought out by such corporate interests. Unlike most
other countries, the United States doesnt control drug
prices. It leaves pricing up to the market. Which enables
drug companies to charge as much as the market will bear.
Meanwhile the pharmaceutical industry is making a
fortune off average Americans. Reich.
4). The policemen who have been so trigger-happy lately get their act together and gure out a way to subdue a
suspected law-breaker without riddling him with 12 to 16
bullets and then nding out he was only carrying a baseball bat, a pellet gun, a small knife or some other less
than lethal weapon. Along with this, serious studies need
to be done and the results published that nd out what has
gone wrong in the lives of so many young men who join
gangs, raise havoc, resort to extreme violence and/or suffer from mental illness and offer some practical solutions.
5). The pope wakes up to the importance of birth control. In some ways, he has joined the 21st century, but as
the population of the world increases to the point that in
many places it isnt sustainable, the Catholic Church
needs to emerge from the Dark Ages and face reality. Then
maybe fewer children would be born to parents who are
unable or unwilling to care for them adequately.
6). Gun laws that help reduce gun violence are enforced
and Congress gets out from under the control of the NRA.
No more sales at gun shows, more background checks,
etc. Toy guns will be outlawed or at least be made in red or
orange or something so that they are easily recognizable.
As President Obama said, The gun lobby is loud and wellorganized in its defense of effortlessly available guns for
everyone. The rest of us are going to have to be just as
passionate and well-organized in our defense of our kids.
7). Donald Trump fades away to oblivion as more people
realize that politics is serious business and full-edged
narcissists, who are totally obsessed with themselves and
with no experience in government, are not what we need
to help get this country on the right track. In evaluating
Trump, a Chronicle editorial warned: Rare is the candidate
whose demagoguery is so severe so antithetical to
basic human dignity and respect for the lessons of U.S.
history and the values embedded in the Constitution
that his ascendance in the race, months before the rst
ballot is cast, must be called out as untenable. Donald
Trump has crossed that threshold.
If we would learn what the human race really is at the
bottom, we need to only observe it at election time.

Dividends on the chopping

block as profit growth peters out
NEW YORK The dividend gravy train is
slowing down, threatening an important
source of income for investors at a time
when stocks are going nowhere.
About 500 companies cut or halted their
dividends last year, the highest tally since
the economy was crawling out of the Great
Recession in 2009. Not only that, other
companies got more reluctant to raise their
payouts to shareholders, according to numbers released Tuesday by S&P Dow Jones
Indices. The number of dividend increases
was the lowest in four years.
Dividends, the share of profits that some
companies distribute to investors, have
been increasingly important because bonds
still offer relatively low interest payments
and stock prices have been flat. For example, all of the 0.3 percent return that the
largest mutual fund produced last year came
from dividends. Without the payouts,

Even with Iran-Saudi tension,

supply dictating price of oil
By David Koenig
DALLAS A persistent glut of oil is

trumping Middle Eastern tension, extending
the slump in oil markets into the new year.
The price of oil fell 30 percent last year,
following a 50 percent plunge in 2014. At
below $36 a barrel on Tuesday, the price is
down more than 2 percent early in 2016.
Even the breakoff of diplomatic relations
between Saudi Arabia and Iran, two big oilproducing countries, failed to halt the slide.
Oil prices are likely to remain about
where they are until either production
drops or the world economy perks up and
drives demand higher. The U.S. Energy
Department expects the nations production to drop by about 500,000 barrels a
day this year, but OPEC has vowed to hold
to existing production levels.

The price of benchmark U.S. crude was
down 77 cents to $35.99 a barrel on the New
York Mercantile Exchange in afternoon
trading after falling 28 cents on Monday.
Brent crude, reflecting the price of international oils, was down 2 percent on Tuesday
after a smaller drop Monday.
New reports indicated that manufacturing
is continuing to struggle, with factory
activity falling in December for the second
straight month in the U.S. and the 10th
straight month in China.
Slow growth means that the current oversupply of oil could be more stubborn than
expected. Government figures show that the
stockpile of U.S. crude oil grew by 2.6 million barrels during the week ended Dec. 25
and was 9.9 million barrels higher than a
year ago.

Burlingame blanks Knights Valley in fiery
WCAL opener
By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
During Burlingame girls soccers final preseason friendly Saturday a thorough dismantling by undefeated Mountain View Panthers
head coach Phillip De Rosa shrugged off the
shutout, saying: This is playtime.
But after the Panthers commanding performance in Tuesdays Peninsula Athletic League Bay
Division opener, its clear playtime is over.
Burlingame (1-0 PAL Bay, 6-1 overall) commanded its home field from wire to wire, shutting out Hillsdale 2-0. The Panthers were on
offense for nearly the entire first half, but took
a scoreless tie into the break. Then in the second half, Burlingame converted two scoring
chances.
Today we played together and (were) more
possession oriented instead of just kicking the
ball, Burlingame senior Ilana Parness said.
Parness led the charge for Burlingames best
chance of the first half, but came up empty. It
was a tortured sight as Parness walked away with
her head in her hands. After an attempt by sophomore Grace Colson was deflected right to the
foot of Parness five meters out, she was denied
by another great save by Hillsdale keeper
Lauren Quirke.
In the second half though, Parness drew first
blood with a goal from the top of the goal box.
The senior spun off a screen to take the ball off
a free kick by senior Alexis Prieto, beating
Quirke to the mark and drilling it home from six
meters out for the score.
I was frustrated, obviously, not to score (in
the first half) especially since I hit it right
towards her, Parness said. But I really wanted
a goal so came back and got one.
Burlingame kept the pressure on and got a
great chance five minutes later. But senior
Kelsey Andrews close-range attempt in the
58th minute winged off the upright. Like
Parness, though, Andrews didnt miss on a second chance.
In the 70th minute, Prieto received the ball in
the goal box and controlled it from head to
floor. As two Hillsdale defenders converged,
Prieto sent a sweet, short chip to Andrews who
scored on an open goal.
Meanwhile, Hillsdale (0-1, 0-4) failed to produce a shot on goal throughout.

One swing of momentum turned Serra into a

steamroller in Tuesday nights West Catholic
Athletic League opener at Morton Family
Gymnasium.
The Padres basketball team (1-0 in WCAL,
8-2 overall) went on an 18-point run in the
first quarter and never looked back to triumph
70-49 over Valley Christian, with forward
Jake Killingsworth leading the charge.
A 6-5 senior, Killingsworth turned in a
Draymond Green-like performance, notching a double-double with 16 points and 15
rebounds. But it was his passing and
defense, along with his post presence, that
sparked the first-quarter surge; he totaled
four assists in the game with three coming
in the opening eight minutes.
Ill just do whatever it takes to win,
Killingsworth said. Whatever the team needs
me to do, Ill do. A lot of the time its scoring,
but tonight we got that from [Jeremiah Testa,
Miles Todzo and Jack Wilson]. So, Ill do
what I have to do to get them the ball.
Indeed, the Padres got good scoring balance from the starting five. Testa was a force
to the cylinder, especially early, scoring six
of his 15 points in the first quarter. Todzo and
Wilson added nine points apiece in the game.
In the opening minutes, however, it
seemed as though Valley Christian (0-1, 82) might run away with it. After Todzo
opened the game with a three-pointer out of
the corner, the Warriors went on a quick
seven-point run, prompting Serra head
coach Chuck Rapp to take a timeout just a
minute and a half into the game.
Serra emerged reinvigorated out of the timeout huddle, scrapping with a pressure defense
that kept Valley Christian off the scoreboard
for the final 6:30 of the quarter.
I think it started with our defense, Rapp
said. We were making them take tough,

While Burlingame and Menlo-Atherton

appear to be on a collision course for the
Peninsula Athletic Leagues South Division
title, this could be one of the best races in
some time.
Six of the 10 teams in the division come
into the start of league play with record of
.500 or better. Some teams like Capuchino
and San Mateo appear poised to move up in
the standings, while others most notably
Mills might struggle for one of the rare
times.
Below is a look at the teams in the South
Division, based on predicted order of nish.
Menlo-Atherton (8-2)
The Bears nished 8-4 in South Division
play in 2015 and are poised to challenge for
the title in 2016.
M-A goes about 10 deep and were led in nonleague play by Blake Henrys 11.8 points per
game. Eric Norton and Lucas Fioretti are averaging just over 10 per game as well.
The Bears average right around 60 points

per game while limiting the opposition to an
average of 41 points. They have allowed 50 or
more points only four times this season.
Their only losses this season were a 1-point
decision to Bellarmine and a 55-49 loss to
Half Moon Bay.
Burlingame (8-3)
Once again, the Panthers should be in the
mix for a South Division championship. They
went 10-2 in nishing in a tie for second last
season.
Burlingame has a pair of legitimate player
of the year contenders in senior guard Vinnie
Ferrari and senior wing Tyler Garlitos. Both
are averaging over 20 points per game this
season. Garlitos adds nearly 12 rebounds a
game, while Ferrari pulls down just shy of 10
boards while also dishing out nearly ve
assists.

The Peninsula Athletic Leagues South

Division girls basketball league will most
likely be a two-team race between MenloAtherton, the defending champion, and
Hillsdale, which was the surprise of the PAL
last season.
After that, there will be a whole bunch of
teams ghting for that third- and four-place
spots in the standings.
Below is a look at the teams in their predicted order of nish.
Menlo-Atherton (10-2)
As defending South Division champs, the
title will go through the Bears this season.
Based on what theyve done during the nonleague portion of their schedule, the rest of the
league will have its hands full. Their only two
losses are to Palo Alto (7-3) and Presentation
(12-0), and they are coming off a 48-41 win
over North Division contender Half Moon
Bay.
Girls hoops preview
M-A has only four seniors on the team, but

two of their best players are a pair of sophomores: Greer Hoyem and Carly McLanahan. If
junior center Ofa Sili can stay healthy, the
skys the limit for the Bears.
Hillsdale (4-7)
The Knights took their lumps during nonleague play, but their record can be deceiving.
Most of those losses came against strong
teams. Hillsdale has played both Aragon and
San Mateo in tournaments and thumped them
both.
Emily Nepomuceno and Raichel Tjan give
Hillsdale one of the best guard tandems in the
PAL. Marissa Otonari and Caelynn Hwang
have paced the offense so far this season, as
both average just under 10 points per game.
Offense, however, is not the Knights calling card. That would be defense and they have
allowed 50 points or more just three times.

Raiders miss playoffs for 13th consecutive

year in possible last go-around in Oakland
By Josh Dubow
ALAMEDA The signs of progress for the Oakland

Raiders were stark.
More than doubling the win total from three to seven; a
touchdown more a game scored on offense behind a vastly
upgraded passing attack; a defense that improved mightily
throughout the season.
The end result in coach Jack Del Rios first season was the
same: a 13th straight season without the playoffs.
But with rare continuity at quarterback with Derek Carr
back for a third season, and at coach with Del Rio, as well as
at several other key spots, the Raiders believe they will be
ready to end that drought next season.
I think were very close, Del Rio said. You get a chance
to earn that. The teams that are in there are 12 teams that
are playing this weekend they all earned their way in. Its
our goal to make sure that were one of those teams next
year.
After years of being saddled with numerous lopsided losses, the Raiders were competitive all season outside of an
opening loss to Cincinnati.
In the final 15 games, the Raiders either led or had the ball
with a deficit of seven points or fewer in the fourth quarter of
every contest. But they were unable to close out enough of
those tight games, which led to another early offseason.
We definitely feel like we should be playing, but we didnt
earn it, Carr said. There are some teams in the playoffs that
we played against. There are teams that we saw the mistakes
they had and they barely beat us and things like that. We see
where were headed. Obviously we didnt earn it, were not
there yet, but we see where were headed.
Moving time
The biggest question surrounding the Raiders is where they
will play next season. The team is looking to move to the
Los Angeles area after spending the last 21 years in Oakland.
An answer could come as soon as next week when NFL owners meet in Houston. If the Raiders are not allowed to go
south they will likely remain in Oakland on another shortterm lease and have their long-term future remain in limbo.
Replacing Woodson
Oakland will have to replace more than 1,000 defensive
snaps, eight takeaways and 18 years of experience with safety Charles Woodson headed into retirement. Woodson has
been a big part of the rebuilding the past three seasons. His
lessons will last even longer.
Youre losing a legend, but I think hes taught the secondary, taught us a lot, cornerback David Amerson said. I think
weve just got to take that forth through the season and
throughout our careers and just strive from it.

Bonds, Clemenslikely
to get a boost from
changes in Hall voting
NEW YORK Barry Bonds, Roger Clemens and other

tainted stars of the Steroids Era appear likely to get a boost
in Hall of Fame balloting, but not
enough to enter Cooperstown this year.
Ken Griffey Jr. seems assured of election on the first try Wednesday, possibly
with a record vote of close to 100 percent. Mike Piazza, Jeff Bagwell and Tim
Raines also were strong candidates to
gain the 75 percent needed for baseballs
highest honor.
Following the elimination of about
Barry Bonds 100 retired baseball writers from the
electorate, Bonds and Clemens were on
track for a 5-10 percentage point increase. After drawing
about 37 percent of the ballots last year, they were in the 48
percent range this year according to www.bbhoftracker.com ,
which tabulated public votes adding to more than one-third of
the total.
Last July, the Halls board of directors cut eligible voters
from approximately 575 to roughly 475 by purging writers
who had not been covering the game for more than a decade.

getting anything to fall for a while, and we kept the pressure
on them. I think it all started with that.
It took nearly another minute for the Padres to put the ball in
the hoop, but when they did there was no stopping them.
Wilson sparked the 18-point run with a lay-in. Then Testa
who missed wildly on his first two attempts of the game
finally got it going with a sweet baseline glide to tie it 7-7.
Killingsworth took the ball right back with a steal as Valley
Christian attempted to cross midcourt, then fed Testa on a cut
for an easy lay-in to give Serra a 9-7 lead.
Testa and Todzo each scored again before Killingsworth
slammed home his first points of the night to better the lead to
15-7. Henry James then took a steal to the steel, and later converted from the stripe. Then Cole Galli came off the bench to
score the final bucket of the quarter off an assist from Todzo,
giving Serra a 20-7 lead midway through the first half.
The Warriors who subbed so persistently, they started the
second quarter with a completely different look finally
broke the spell when Justin Kidd came off the bench to convert
the first points of the second quarter. But Serra kept the pressure up by ramping up its dominance on the boards.
Not only did the Padres outrebound the Warriors 42-22 in the
game. Serras well-balanced post presence increased its
rebound total in each quarter, with nine in the first, 10 in the
second, 11 in the third and 12 in the fourth.
One of the most momentous rebounds of the night came from
Killingsworth with 2:45 remaining in the first half, as he
smashed through for an offensive board and a put-back to cap a
six-point run, increasing Serras lead to 29-11. But five different Padres grabbed rebounds in the quarter, including three by
Testa, who finished the night with six boards.
With Serra in the drivers seat in the second half,
Killingsworth kept the pedal to the metal in the third quarter,
totaling eight points and five rebounds. The Padres took a 5036 lead into the fourth quarter, then emptied the bench with two
minutes to play.
Its big coming out the first game of league right,
Killingsworth said. We knew they were going to come out
with pressure, so we were ready.

SOCCER
It helped that Burlingame had nearly its full
squad available, unlike Saturdays scrimmage
with Mountain View with several players missing. And while De Rosa was whimsical about
the dynamic of the friendly while Mountain
View was easily scoring goal after goal, he wasnt so warm come Mondays practice.
That was a really rude awakening and we had
a big talk about that there, De Rosa said. We
had to get back to Burlingame soccer.
The Panthers are still short one key player
though, as senior forward Gabby Walker hasnt
taken the field since the third game of the season after suffering an ankle injury. One of
Burlingames top scorers from a year ago, the
lineup has undergone a domino effect of
changes without her.
Parness has filled in for Walker nicely
though. A regular defender, Wednesdays goal
marked her first of the year. More importantly,
it settled Burlingame down after a tense first
half, which De Rosa attributed to the winter
break.
They were trying to overplay (in the first
half), De Rosa said. Too much small ball and
we just got out of our basic style of play.
Of course, Quirkes first-half play had a big
say in fueling Burlingames early frustrations. A
three-sport athlete, whose priority sports are
SPORTS
water polo and softball, Quirke never played
goalie prior to this season. But with the
Knights graduating two senior keepers after last
season, so first-year head coach Jessie Berta had
to invent one. And the athletic Quirke answered
the call.
That was awesome, Berta said of Quirkes
back-to-back saves in the first half. She has
really good reflexes. I think its from water polo
and softball.
The first half ended with a critical Hillsdale
injury though, as forward Tayla Kelley
arguably the Knights best player had to be
carried from the field with an ankle injury. She
remained on the bench until the end of the
match. Berta did not comment on the extent of
the injury.
Otherwise, Berta said she was pleased with her
teams performance, despite the lack of possession.
I wish we were more on possession and
being more offensive, but for our first game, it
wasnt bad, Berta said. I wish we could have
gotten one in, but it went well overall.
Likewise, De Rosa said he was happy with the
end result of Burlingames performance. More
so, he expects Walker to return as early as next
week. And with his senior-heavy team off and
running this years 11 seniors mark the most
on roster in the veteran coachs tenure the
Panthers are thinking big in the PAL Bay.
Now theyre back to focus, De Rosa said.
Not theyre 6-1-0, which is a pretty good start.
And now that they have a good start, they can
get it going.

Cooper and Michael Crabtree to form
a lethal passing game. But the
defense held Oakland back. That
changed in the second half of the
schedule when the defense stepped up
behind pass rusher Khalil Mack,
Woodson and waiver wire surprise
Amerson. But the offense sputtered
down the stretch as the running game
stalled, Cooper dealt with a sore foot
and Carr faced increased pressure.
You saw flashes from each side,
Del Rio said. I think clearly you put
those efforts together and you go on a
nice run.
Coveting cornerbacks
The biggest hole on the roster is at
cornerback, where the only reliable

player all season was Amerson. DJ
Hayden, a 2013 first-round pick, lost
his starting job midway through the
season and looks like a bust. TJ
Carrie could end up moving to safety
after playing both spots this season.
With the 14th pick in the draft and
plenty of salary cap room, the
Raiders should have chances to
upgrade.
Run support
While Latavius Murray became
Oaklands first 1,000-yard rusher
since Darren McFadden in 2010, he
got almost no help in the backfield.
Carr was the second-leading rusher
with 138 yards and no other back
even got 25 carries. Finding help for
Murray will be important as he
slowed down during the second half of
the season, averaging 3.3 yards per
carry in the final eight games.
I felt that I left so much out there,
he said. To me, it didnt feel like a
1,000-yard season. There were games
where there was absolutely nothing.
For me, I just know I want to get better.

Klay nets 36 as Warriors blast Lakers

By Greg Beacham
LOS ANGELES
Klay
Thompson scored 22 of his 36
points in the first quarter and
Stephen Curry added 17 before sitting out the fourth to rest his ailing
leg in the Warriors 109-88 victory
over the Lakers Tuesday night.
Kobe Bryant sat out his third
straight game with a sore right
shoulder for the Lakers, whose
three-game winning streak ended in
Golden States 33rd win in 35
games.
Curry stayed in the game after
taking a blow on his left leg in the
third period, but briefly limped
with obvious frustration on his
face. The reigning MVP missed two
games with a bruised lower left leg
last week before returning for
Golden States last two games.
Curry went to the locker room
before the fourth.

Klay Thompson never trailed
while beating
the Lakers at Staples Center for
only the fifth time in franchise history.
Jordan Clarkson scored 23
points for the Lakers. Rookie guard
DAngelo Russell sat out with a
sore throat, missing a game for the
first time in his career.
The Lakers three-game winning
streak was their longest since
February, but the loss dropped their
record to 8-28, the second-worst in
the NBA.
Thompson had 22 points in the
first 11 minutes, hitting four 3pointers and going 9 for 14 from
the field.
Golden State maintained a
healthy lead despite not shooting a
free throw in the first half, and the
Warriors toyed with the Lakers a bit
more before scoring 22 consecutive points over 5 1/2 minutes in
the third quarter to put it away.
Kobe out
Bryants shoulder has improved
in recent days, but he still decided
to sit for the third time in 2016.
Lakers coach Byron Scott is cautiously optimistic that the 20-year
veteran will return Thursday in
Sacramento. Bryant has missed
seven games this season.
Triple-double streak
Green was attempting to become
the second player in 27 years to
post four straight triple-doubles.
He already tied the Warriors record
for consecutive triple-doubles, set
56 years ago by Tom Gola.

varsity season, is averaging 11 points and six
rebounds.
The Panthers have played a rugged nonleague schedule, with quality wins over Menlo
School, Sacred Heart Prep, Serra and St.
Joseph-Notre Dame in Alameda. Even their
losses have been quality, falling to Stuart Hall
and Miramonte, which are a combined 20-8.
Hillsdale (6-5)
The Knights return six players from last
years 7-5 squad, three starters and one key
player off the bench. They have been up and
down during preseason, but played a fairly
tough schedule which should have them prepared for PAL play.
Both David Lopez and David Badet are threeyear varsity players in the backcourt, while 65 center Isaiah Cozzolino has shown an ability to take over games at times. Taiga Schwarz
is one of the best pure shooters in the league
and can go for 20 or more during any given
game.
Hillsdale will need consistent scoring from
Lopez, Cozzolino and Schwarz to have a shot
at challenging for the crown.
Sequoia (6-6)
The Cherokees graduated one of the top
players in the league in Chris Bene, but they
return one of the best big men in the PAL in
Ziggy Lauese. The sophomore is averaging 12
points and just under 10 rebounds per game.
NJai LeBlanc, a junior wing, can play both
outside and inside and is averaging nearly 11
points per game.
What the Cherokees may lack in big scoring numbers, they make up for in volume.
Sequoia goes about nine, 10 deep on its roster
and six players average four points or more.
A tough non-league schedule contributed to
the Cherokees .500 record. Three of their
losses have come at the hands of Bellarmine,
Sacred Heart Cathedral and Half Moon Bay.
Capuchino (6-6)
The Mustangs appeared poised to rise to
make a move from the bottom of the South
Division pack to the middle. They were 2-10
last season.
Capuchinos biggest concern is nding a
reliable complement to Lucas Magni, who
leads the team with 14.4 points per game. AJ
Macaraeg, at 8.8 points, is the only other
player close to double gures scoring.
The good news for Cap is the fact that a lot

of guys have seen a lot of playing time.

Fourteen players have played in a game this
season.
The fact the Mustangs have played well
against PAL teams during non-league action
should bode well for them. They went 3-1
against other PAL teams so far this season.
San Mateo (7-5)

After a 4-8 campaign in 2015, the Bearcats
appear poised to move up the South Division
standings. They did graduate two of their best
scorers from last season, but do return ve
players.
San Mateo went 2-2 against teams from the
PAL and have been competitive in most of its
games this season though the Bearcats do
have a few blowout losses on their resume.
Carlmont (5-6)
The Scots have been up and down in the preseason, but head into league play on a twogame winning streak.
Carlmont had a rough patch in the middle of
December, losing four in a row.
Aragon (4-8)
Other than a lopsided loss to Half Moon
Bay, the Dons have been competitive in most
of their games.
Their biggest non-league win to this point
was against a 10-4 Stuart Hall squad which
beat Burlingame in the seminals of the Lions
Club Tournament.
Mills (3-8)
The Vikings graduated the Daily Journals
Player of the Year in Marquis Adkins and are in
bit of a reloading phase right now.
Mills has struggled to score so far this season, failing to reach the 40-point mark in six
games and have gone over 50 points only
three times.
They head into South Division play on a
four-game slide.
Woodside (4-2)
The biggest question facing the Wildcats is
have they played enough during the preseason
to be prepared for PAL play?
Woodside does have a couple of decent wins,
beating Terra Nova and Lowell-SF.
The Wildcats struggled last season, going
winless in league play, but they have six players returning who picked up valuable playing
experience last year.
He was really taking off as an individual, Gunn said. And by the time he arrived,
he was already turning heads and had people
talking about him turning pro eventually.
With the 2016 Summer Games just around
the corner, and the 2018 World Cup on the
horizon, Morris decision to turn pro readies
him for the international stage if the national team calls.

Mills (5-6)
Dont be fooled by the Vikings win-loss
record. They have been in every game except
one a lopsided loss to St. Francis-Mountain
View.
Mills has two of the best players in the
league in Julia Gibbs and Aubrie Businger.
Gibbs is wrapping up a four-year varsity career
and is averaging 11 points per game. Businger,
a junior, has simply been lling the stat sheet
all season long. Shes scoring 12 points, grabbing nearly 10 rebounds, dishing out three
assists and coming up with almost ve steals a
game.
Those two are complemented by Kaela
Stonebarger, who is averaging just under 10
points a game as a freshman.
Carlmont (7-5)
After a fourth-place nish in the South

play last season and prospects look marginally
better this season.
San Mateo is 0-2 against PAL teams this season including a 20-point loss to Oceana.
The Bearcats are also only 1-3 against teams
from the West Bay Athletic League.
The Bearcats may be a year away from being
a legitimate threat to challenge for a top spot.
While they do return ve players from last season, none of them are seniors: three juniors and
a pair of sophomores.
Sequoia (3-5)
The Cherokees, who won two South
Division games last season, are young with
just four seniors and have a new coach in
Nick McCullar, who will need more than just
this year to get the program turned around.
The good news is he has a couple of pieces to
build around the next couple of years. McCullar
is really high on guard Mia Woo, a sophomore
who is averaging eight points a game. Alyssa
Albin has been the teams leading scorer in preseason at just over 10 points a game and she is
only a junior.
Sequoia has been blown off the oor only a
couple of times this season. Otherwise, the
Cherokees have been competitive.
Burlingame (1-6)
The Mustangs have been an up-and-coming

team the last several seasons, nishing in a tie
for fourth place last season. They should nish
in the upper half of the standings against this
year.
Ani Uikili leads the team with nearly 11
points per game. But she does much more than
just score. She is second in rebounding, second
in assists and rst on the team in steals.
Jordan Ramirez adds 10 points per game,
while Sarah Quintana chips in just under 10
points per game.
The Panthers have been in disarray since winning the 2013 Central Coast Section Division
III championship.
They are already on their second coach of the
season after Bill Lepeltak stepped down
because of health reasons only a couple games
into the 2015-16 season.
There hasnt been much success since the
coaching change, however, having lost six
straight since opening the season with a win
over Lynbrook.
To be fair, the Panthers have played a fairly
tough preseason so as long as they havent
been completely turned off to the season
already, they should have a chance to pick up
some wins in South Division play this year.
Aragon (4-6)
Woodside (3-3)
The Dons nished at .500 last year and are on

pace to nish right around there again this season.
Against elite competition this season, the
Dons have come up short. But put them up
against a team that they match up well against
and they are capable of beating anyone.
In Aragons four wins, the Dons are averaging 50 points. In their six losses, theyve
scored 50 or more only once.
Much like San Mateo, the Wildcats may be a

year away from seriously contending.
Considering they are coming off a one-win
2015 campaign, theyll have to take baby
steps this year.
But of six returners, three are juniors. With 60 freshman center Soana Afu starting her high
school career, the Wildcats could be back to
respectability sooner rather than later.
Woodside didnt really test itself in the preseason. The Wildcats won their three games by
a combined score of 121-33. In their three losses, the decit has been roughly 20 points.
Capuchino (6-5)
San Mateo (3-5)

The Bearcats won only two games in league

Morris certainly closed his collegiate
career in style. In addition to leading the

Consumers wont know meat origin after U.S. ends labeling law
By Mary Clare Jalonick
WASHINGTON Its now harder to find

out where your beef or pork was born, raised
and slaughtered.
After more than a decade of wrangling,
Congress repealed a labeling law last month
that required retailers to include the animals
country of origin on packages of red meat.
Its a major victory for the meat industry,
which had fought the law in Congress and
the courts since the early 2000s.
Lawmakers said they had no choice but to
get rid of the labels after the World Trade
Organization repeatedly ruled against them.
The WTO recently authorized Canada and
Mexico, which had challenged the law, to
begin more than $1 billion in economic
retaliation against the United States.
U.S. exporters can now breathe a sigh of
relief, said Republican Sen. Pat Roberts of
Kansas, chairman of the Senate Agriculture,
Nutrition and Forestry Committee. The
longtime opponent of the labels helped add
the repeal to a massive year-end spending
bill. After the law was passed, Agriculture
Secretary Tom Vilsack said the government
immediately would stop requiring the
labels.
Consumer groups say the repeal is a disappointment just as consumers are asking for
more information on their food packages.
Advocates say the labels help people make
more informed buying decisions and encourage purchases of American meat.
Before repeal, the labels told shoppers
that a particular cut of meat was born in
Canada, raised and slaughtered in the United
States or born, raised and slaughtered in
the United States. Congress first required
the labels in 2002 amid fears of mad cow
disease from imported cattle. The labels
werent on most packages until 2009,
though, due to delays pushed by the meat
industry.
Repeal became inevitable once the United
States lost all its WTO appeals and the retal-
iation became a possibility. But the consumer groups criticized Congress for repealing the law for ground meat and pork in addition to the fresh cuts of meat that were the
subject of WTO concerns.
The bill was a holiday gift to the meatpacking industry from Congress, complained the advocacy group Food and Water
Watch. Meatpackers who buy Mexican cattle were some of the laws most aggressive
opponents.
The repeal also was a big defeat for lawmakers from northern border states where
U. S. ranchers directly compete with
Canadian ranchers. Those lawmakers insisted on including the labeling in the 2002 and
2008 farm bills and this year fought to
replace it with a voluntary program once the
WTO rulings came down. But after years of
success, this time they were not able to find
enough support.
Roger Johnson of the National Farmers
Union, which has heavy membership in
those states, said the group was furious
about the repeal.
Packers will be able to once again deliberately deceive consumers, Johnson said.
Still, there was some good news for food
labeling advocates in the spending bill.
Despite an aggressive push by the food
industry, lawmakers decided not to add language that would have blocked mandatory
labeling of genetically modified ingredients. Also, a provision by Sen. Lisa
Murkowski, R-Alaska, would require labeling of genetically modified salmon recently
approved by the Food and Drug
Administration.
The issue is expected to come up again in
2016, with Vermont set to require labeling
on genetically modified food this summer.
The day the spending bill passed, Vilsack
said he would try to help Congress come up
with a middle ground on labeling of engineered foods in a way that doesnt create
significant market disruption, while at the
same time recognizing consumers need to
know and right to know basic information.
Before repeal, the meat labels told shoppers that a particular cut of meat was born in Canada,
raised and slaughtered in the United Statesorborn, raised and slaughtered in the United States.

standards and other improvements will be
financed.
The school, which has been closed since
1979, will be the focus of a public discussion during a joint meeting between the
Burlingame City Council and the
Burlingame Elementary School District
Board of Trustees, held Wednesday, Jan. 6.
Officials project the variety of improvements are slated to cost as much as $3.5 million, when considering long-term projects
such as building new sidewalks along
Summit and Easton drives, as well as widening the roads and other efforts, according to
a city report.
Burlingame City Manager Lisa Goldman
said collaboration is required, because there
is not enough space in either agencys budget to finance the entirety of the projects.
The difficulty is that we both have very
limited funds available for capital improvements, she said.
The neighborhood surrounding the
school is on the border of Burlingame and
Hillsborough, and features constricted
streets, some of which do not have room for
more than one car to pass at a time.
To enable the area to accommodate the
EL NIO
back to 1950.
El Nios usually bring heavy rains to
California, although it remains to be seen
whether people should expect anything like
a repeat of 1997 and 1998, when storms
killed 17 people, wiped out crops, washed
out highways and pushed houses down hillsides.
DarthNio may finally have California
in its sights, said Jeff Masters, meteorology director of the private Weather
Underground.
A parade of strong Pacific storms characteristic of a strong El Nio event will batter
the state this week and will likely bring
damaging flooding by the time the second
storm in the series rolls through on
Wednesday, Masters said.
However, Masters and meteorologist
Ryan Maue of the private WeatherBell

powerful as some other Pacific storm systems, and they caution that the storms now
following it may land elsewhere.

demands of students and parents traveling to

school, improvements to the streets and
sidewalks must be made, but there is currently uncertainty regarding which agency will
be held accountable.
Its kind of an open question of who will
pay for it, and how that will happen,
Goldman said.
Superintendent Maggie MacIsaac said she
is hopeful school and city officials will be
able to work together on coming to an
agreement regarding shouldering the cost of
the variety of projects.
I think the main purpose is to take a look
at this as a community, she said.
The meeting marks the first time in years
that the entire council and school board
have come together, though there are occasional liaison meetings featuring select
representatives from each agency.
Goldman said she ultimately believes the
most effective way of identifying the variety of improvements which may be needed
is waiting for the school to open, analyzing
the transportation trends that develop, then
recommending changes to address the
issues that arise.
The school district hired a traffic analyst
to develop a projection of how many cars
and pedestrians may flow through the
neighborhood, but Goldman noted the
paths people take are often different than
what is expected.
As the school prepares to open, cost projections show there are between $200,000
and $250, 000 worth of improvements
immediately required such as a new traffic
island to be installed in front of the school,
as well as new stop signs and pedestrian
crossing signs, curb painting, wheelchair
ramps and crossing guards, according to a
city report.
A majority of the more substantial costs,
such as building new sidewalks, curbs, gutters, road widening and relocation of utilities such as electric poles are defined in the
city report as long-term projects, which
could be addressed after classes go into session.
The bigger ticket items need a little history of the school being open, said
Goldman.
MacIsaac said she believes it is the right
time to address the variety of capital
improvements, as the school creeps closer
to the first day of classes, and the city is
beginning to consider updating its General
Plan.
This is just an opportunity to be able to
meet and talk about joint concerns and the
community and the area, she said.
Only recently did the district gain
approval to reopen the school, after residents living in the surrounding neighborhood filed a lawsuit attempting to block students from gaining access to the campus,
due to concerns about impaired traffic flow
throughout the area.

But school officials and neighborhood
residents arrived at a settlement in February,
after the district committed to installing a
variety of alterations along Summit Drive,
such as designating student drop-off and
pick-up areas and realigning the school
driveway, among other improvements.
MacIsaac said, since the settlement was
reached, there have been very few complaints from residents living in the neighborhood near the school.
Things are pretty congenial, she said.
I think we got everything in place where we
can do what we need to do, we have just got
to move forward.
The district paid an estimated roughly $13
million to renovate and reopen the school
to help accommodate projected enrollment
growth which is expected to occur over
coming years.
Goldman said the discussion will serve as
an opportunity for officials to identify the
best way to proceed to address the transportation issues around the school, both
immediately and down the road.
The task at hand is to talk about all these
issues and challenges, she said. We need
to put on our thinking caps about if and
when those other improvements will be
done, and if so, how they get paid for.
The meeting will take place at 6 p.m. in
the Lane Room at the Burlingame Public
Library, 480 Primrose Road.
two weeks probably not enough to cause

the tremendous flooding of 1998, but then
again, that years floods didnt peak until
February, Masters said.
As much as 15 inches of rain could fall in
the next 16 days in Northern California,
with about 2 feet of snow expected in the
highest points of the Sierra Nevada, said
Johnny Powell, a forecaster with the
National Weather Service.
In Southern California, between 2 and 3.5
inches of rain is predicted to fall across the
coastal and valley areas, and up to 5 inches
falling in the mountains.
The first in the line of storms also
drenched the desert Southwest on Tuesday
and was aiming for the Gulf Coast, but
should weaken to no more than a couple
inches of rainfall by the time it reaches the
Southeast, Masters added.
Flash flooding and flows of mud and
debris were a concern, especially in places
left barren by last years wildfires.
Residents of the Silverado Canyon burn area
in Orange County and the Solimar burn area
in Ventura County were urged to consider
evacuating.
The best time to prepare is before a
weather event happens, but there is still
time to prepare at least a basic emergency
kit for your home, your car or your place of
work, said Brad Alexander, spokesman for
the Governors Office of Emergency

Services.
In Orange County, south of Los Angeles,
a homeless man in his 40s was swept off his
feet by swift waters and washed nearly a
mile down Brea Creek in Buena Park before
he pulled himself out, county fire Capt.
Steve Concialdi said. He was treated at a
hospital for scraped feet and arms.
Rocks fell on the roadway through Malibu
Canyon, damaging four vehicles and clogging a heavily traveled commuter route
through the steep Santa Monica Mountains,
and Los Angeles police were rousting the
homeless from normally dry riverbeds.
As steady and sometimes heavy rains fell,
Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti urged people to clear gutters and anything in their
yards that might clog storm drains, and to
stockpile sandbags if their home is susceptible to flooding.
Garcetti also said that the citys homeless
encampments have been mapped for the
first time, and he promised shuttles to bring
people to shelters with 6,000 beds.
Los Angeles Fire Chief Ralph Terrazas
said swift-water rescue teams are ready, but
hed rather not deploy them. Authorities
hope to avoid a repeat of last Septembers
rescue of a homeless man who scrambled up
a tree with his dog when the Los Angeles
River quickly grew to a torrent.
The storms are whipped up large ocean

swells that could generate hazardous breaking waves at west-facing harbors. Venturas
Harbor Boulevard was closed Tuesday by
flooding about a foot deep, police there
said.
Altogether, the storms hold the potential
for massive amounts of precipitation for a
very parched state, but water managers
wont be able to fully estimate this years
snowmelt until April 1, when the snowpack
is typically at its deepest.
Mother Nature has a way of surprising or
disappointing us, Department of Water
Resources spokesman Doug Carlson said,
insisting that conservation must continue.
Californians used 20 percent less water
this past November than they did in
November 2013, before Gov. Jerry Brown
declared the states water emergency, the
Water Resources Control Board announced
Tuesday.
That falls short of Browns 25 percent
conservation mandate for a second straight
month, although board chairwoman Felicia
Marcus said the state remains on track to
meet his overall goal.
The fact that per-person water use
dropped to 75 gallons per person per day on
average is proof that Californians are clearly thinking twice before turning on the
tap, Marcus said in a statement.

Chinese liquor baijiu takes a shot at the U.S. cocktail scene

By Michelle Locke
Think bourbon is hot? Its got

nothing on baijiu.
Yet chances are good you havent
even heard of baijiu, the high
proof, pungent, spicy, savory,
sweet traditional liquor of China. It
packs a fiery punch. It also happens to be the worlds best-selling
liquor by volume, a drink with a
pedigree stretching back centuries,
and was poured to toast the warming of U.S.-Sino relations during
Nixons historic 1972 visit.
Now, producers are making
diplomatic overtures to an entirely
new audience the U.S. craft
cocktail scene.
We feel that it has incredible
potential, says Yuan Liu, senior
vice president of business development for Los Angeles-based CNS
Imports, the largest importer/distributor of baijiu in United States.
Baijiu is sorghum-based, though
it also can contain wheat, rice and
corn. And its not a uniform product; its a class of spirits with
many categories. Think whiskey
with its range from smoky Scotch
to mellow bourbon. But unlike
whiskey, which is fermented in a
liquid state, baijiu is more or less
dry fermented inside in-ground
pits. It then is steam distilled several times in goose-neck stills,
aged in massive terra cotta vessels, then finally blended (itself a
complex and labor-intensive
process.)
Baijiu is sorghum-based, though it also can contain wheat, rice and corn. And its not a uniform product; its a class
of spirits with many categories. Think whiskey with its range from smoky Scotch to mellow bourbon.
It generally is bottled at around
100 or 120 proof (well above the
typical 80 proof for vodka, gin,
etc.) and is classed by aroma, such
as light, rice, strong and
sauce labels which arent all
that helpful to Westerners. Typical
reactions from first-timers are that
it smells and tastes like blue
cheese, mushroom or soy sauce
not the most alluring descriptors.
This is not a spirit you can just
pour into a martini glass and
enjoy, says New York bartender
Orson Salicetti.
But introduced more gently as
part of a cocktail? That can work,
says Salicetti, co-founder of the
Lumos bar, which focuses on the
Chinese spirit and has a menu of
more than 60 baijiu cocktails.
Salicetti was introduced to baijiu
by his architect partner Qifan Li
and realized baijiu would be a great
way to stand out in a city awash
with specialty bars.
A popular option at Lumos is the
sesame colada, which includes
caramelized pineapple juice, white

sesame paste and agave syrup.
Theres also the goji baijiu punch,
consisting of goji-infused HKB
baijiu, mezcal, pink grapefruit
juice, lime juice, agave syrup and
orange bitters.
Lumos carries a full range of baijiu, including the No. 1 brand,
Kweichow Moutai, recognizable
by its distinctive packaging of a
white bottle with a red and gold
label. Other major players include
Wu Liang Ye and Shui Jing Fang. A
newer brand is HKB, designed with

cocktails in mind and bottled at a
relatively mild 86 proof. There
also is a U.S.-produced baijiu, from
Vinn, a distillery just south of
Portland, Oregon.
Most of the $23 billion baijiu
market stays in China, though
theres been growing interest in
exporting. Most of the baijiu
imported to the United States goes
to Chinese restaurants and shops.
But about two years ago, CNS
Imports decided to expand their
reach. We looked at each other and
said, Why arent we introducing
this category of spirits to people
outside the Chinese community?
said Liu.
Theyve moved slowly, introducing the spirit to bartenders and
learning, from experience, to work
with rather than mask the unique
flavors. Instead of trying to mask
the spirit and make it into something it isnt, like vodka, theyre
essentially creating and building a
cocktail around the spirit, says
Liu.
Clearly, theres a push to raise
the profile of baijiu in the West.
Whether it will be successful is
another story. Baijiu has an exotic
appeal which is both a weakness
and a strength, says Jim Boyce,
who blogs about Beijing nightlife
at beijingboyce.com. Baiju is
such a novelty and thats going to
be its challenge, going from Yes, I
tried it once and its interesting, to
something people buy regularly or
even stock at home.

Artist rendering of a proposed new development on 849 Veterans Blvd. in Redwood City.
LOBSTER
The project will likely go before the
Architectural Advisory Committee for
review soon before a zoning administrator gives it final approval, Chan
said.
The City Council will then have to
approve an affordable housing agreement with Sares Regis to construct
seven units of affordable housing on
the site at 849 Veterans Blvd.
The Lobster Shack at that location
will move later this year to a mixed-use
RAIN
said. Sonoma County, however, was
hit hard by the storm recording the
highest rain total in the Bay Area at
4. 5 inches Tuesday morning. The
Santa Cruz Mountains recorded the second highest rain total at about 4 inches.
The downed trees, power outages and
flooding recorded in Marin and other
Bay Area counties was not prevalent in
San Mateo County Tuesday.
In Redwood City, no calls for service
to the Public Works Department came
in due to the rain, said city spokeswoman Meghan Horrigan.
In San Mateo, a storm drain did collapse but was quickly attended to, said
Public
Works
Director
Brad
Underwood.
There were no sewer overflows
Tuesday, he said.
development in Los Altos that Sares

Regis also owns.
The Lobster Shack, owned by
Russell Deutsch, opened its first location in Redwood City in 2006. It also
has restaurants in Portola Valley and
San Jose. Deutsch said last year he was
interested in finding another Redwood
City location.
The current strip mall that has four
commercial spaces, which once housed
Supercuts, will be torn down to make
way for the new project.
The development fronts along
Veterans Boulevard and Main Street to
the rear, with commercial buildings on
each side.
Sares Regis proposes to build eight

studio, 37 one-bedroom, 38 two-bedroom and seven three-bedroom units at
the site.
The overall building height will be
approximately 65 feet and will have an
automatic fire sprinkler system.
Redwood City currently has 14 residential projects in the planning
pipeline including at 150 El Camino
Real; 103 Wilson St.; 1305 El Camino
Real and 204 Franklin St.
The city was prepared for the rain as

storm drains were cleared well in
advance, Underwood said.
The city has made sandbags available to residents free of charge at the
corporation yard on Pacific Boulevard
and a second new location at the wastewater treatment plant on Detroit Drive,
he said.
In San Carlos, crews responded at 4
a.m. Tuesday when the rainfall rate
reached a quarter-inch per hour for
patrol inlet monitoring, Public Works
Director Jay Walter said.
There were no flooding issues in the
city, however, and no calls from residents, he said.
The Pulgas Creek culvert water level
at 800 Elm St. rose to 6.5 inches and
the Brittan Creek culvert at 1200 Elm
St. had heavy debris buildup on the
trash grate, Walter said.
Both locations were monitored during the heavy rain and debris was
removed as needed, he said.
Crews were out Tuesday checking on
drains and storm channels to remove
debris and to prepare for the next

storm, Walter said.
A high surf advisory is in effect until
6 p.m. Wednesday, according to the
National Weather Service.
Elsewhere in the Bay Area, the storm
caused an old oak tree to come down
onto power lines in Mill Valley, causing power outages for about 200
Pacific Gas and Electric customers,
according to the utility.
Additionally, power equipment in
Fremont was reported flooded around
8:50 a.m. Tuesday, affecting around
150 customers, PG&E officials said.
And the relentless rain in the North
Bay created some flooding, according
to California Highway Patrol.
Weather service officials predict the
heaviest rainfall will occur between 6
a.m. and 10 a.m. Wednesday. After
Saturday, the area should get a little
break from the rain, Pi said.
