Hillsdale Shopping Center getting revamp

San Mateo approves redevelopment, tearing down Sears
By Samantha Weigel
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

After more than three years of planning, owners of the Hillsdale

Shopping Center have cleared the way
to revitalize an aging portion of its
San Mateo property with a bowling
alley, luxury cinema, restaurants, boutique shops and more.
On Monday night, the City Council
unanimously approved Bohannon
Development Companys proposal to

reconfigure the 12-acre site currently

housing the old Sears building and an
underutilized surface parking lot front
El Camino Real just north of 31st
Avenue.
Its striving to stay relevant in a
world where shoppers are increasingly
heading online, said Bohannon CEO
Bob Webster, according to a video of
the meeting. The company veered
away from its previous proposal to
anchor the site with big-box retail and
instead, Webster said the company will

create a walkable environment centered around a large landscaped plaza.

Much has changed since the shopping center was originally constructed
over 60 years ago. The center has continually evolved to adapt to changes in
the marketplace, Webster said. The
new trend is toward providing experiences the Internet cant offer.
The site includes almost 300,000
square feet of smaller retail shops, dinning and entertainment while main-

Coastside library fully funded

County loans Half Moon Bay $6M to help cover project
By Samantha Weigel
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Its official: All of the funding

has come together for the coastside to enjoy a new library courtesy of a collaboration between
the county and city of Half Moon
Bay.
The funding details for the $23
million library were solidified
Tuesday after the San Mateo
County Board of Supervisors
agreed to loan the city $6 million.
Both agencies agreed to equally
split the cost of the proposed near-

ly 22,000-square-foot facility that

will replace the existing outdated
library near the heart of downtown
Half Moon Bay.
But while the city was able to
come up with about half of its portion, it had planned to fund the
remainder through bonds that
would have incurred substantial
expenses in interest. Instead, the
county offered a no-interest $6
million loan under extremely
favorable terms.

Charitable Norwegian turns

over cash hidden under fireplace
STOCKHOLM A Norwegian real
estate broker is being praised after he
found almost $40,000 hidden underneath the fireplace of his new apartment and donated all of it to a charity.
Vemund Thorkildsen told the
Associated Press on Tuesday that he
made the discovery as he showed his
newly purchased Oslo apartment to a
friend two weeks ago.
While trying to figure out whether
the fireplace could be moved to another
room, they lifted a stone panel.
Beneath it they found an envelope with
almost 350,000 kroner ($38,000) in
Norwegian bank notes.
At first we started to celebrate like if
we had won the lottery, said
Thorkildsen, 27. But then I thought
this not my money.
He had bought the apartment from
Kreftforeningen, a Norwegian cancer
foundation which had received it as part
of an estate.
So Thorkildsen decided the foundation should have the money.
It would have been nice to go on a
vacation, he said, laughing. But that
money wasnt mine and it felt nice to
give it to something good like the cancer foundation.

Supes: Study airport noise

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT

San Mateo County is looking to refine a

list of strategies to combat the noise generated by planes flying into and out of the San
Carlos Airport.
The San Mateo County Board of
Supervisors held a packed study session
Tuesday with some residents saying the
flight paths into the airport generate too
much noise while others said any restrictions are unnecessary.
The board directed staff to further study
noise at the airport to ease impacts on residents, especially in East Palo Alto,
Atherton, North Fair Oaks and Redwood
City.
About 60 speakers addressed the board as
supervisors considered whether more analysis of the noise was needed and what options
may be taken to reduce impacts.
Both mandatory and voluntary measures
may be considered.
Mandatory measures may include: time of
day restrictions; nighttime curfew; implement a reservation/slot system for arrivals;
implement the number of flights by carrier;
and restrictions on helicopters.
Public Works staff will look at data and
speak with the community and pilot associations as it looks to refine recommendations to the board. In April, the board will
be updated with a more focused list and in
June it will consider possible adoption of
the final recommendations, according to a
press release.
The San Carlos Airport, which is owned
and operated by San Mateo County, has
about 130,000 flights annually. Flights
have increased 13 percent since 2012 and
noise complaints have also increased significantly.
An Airport Noise Working Group was
established by board President Warren

Deal struck saving Burlingame eucalyptus trees

By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Burlingame officials finalized an agreement designed to enhance driver safety along

El Camino Real while preserving the citys
historic eucalyptus tree grove by implementing traffic restrictions at a potentially dangerous intersection.
Under a decision by the Burlingame City
Council during a meeting Monday, March 7,
cars traveling south along El Camino Real
will no longer be allowed to make a left turn
at Floribunda Avenue toward downtown.
The prohibition was found as a compromise with Caltrans, the state transportation
agency responsible for managing El Camino
Real, which has long been searching for
ways to reduce accidents on the busy thoroughfare.
Caltrans has expressed interest in
installing a left-hand turn lane at Floribunda
Avenue, which would require road widening
and threaten some of the historic eucalyptus
grove abutting El Camino Real.
City officials countered the turn lane proposal by calling for less invasive efforts

designed to make El Camino Real more safe

for commuters, but keep the trees in tact.
In light of the agreement unanimously
approved during the meeting, councilmembers lauded the collaboration between agencies that led to the deal.
This was something that first arose when
I was mayor, it has been a big deal, and Im
really pleased with where we are, said
Councilman Michael Brownrigg.
He noted though that throughout negotiations with Caltrans, city officials were steadfast in preserving the tree grove which some
residents feel is a defining characteristic of
Burlingames identity.
We never wavered in what is important to
the city, said Brownrigg.
Caltrans will install signs informing drivers the southbound left turn is prohibited,
and officials will monitor the effectiveness
of the traffic amendment in reducing car
crashes at the intersection over the coming
three years.
Also under the councils decision, a community group will be established to comprehensively study traffic through the stretch of
El Camino Real which spans Burlingame.

While councilmembers expressed enthusiasm for the variety of traffic improvements

which could be brought on by the agreement,
some took time to acknowledge the importance of keeping the trees.
The trees grove is very important to who
we are and what the city is, said Vice Mayor
Ricardo Ortiz.
Five of the trees in the eucalyptus grove
near the Floribunda Avenue intersection are
part of the Howard-Ralston row, recognized
on the National Register of Historic Places.
Brownrigg noted as officials searched for a
collaborative solution to the driver safety
concerns at the problematic intersection, it
compelled them to look more comprehensively at the rest of the citys stretch of El
Camino Real.
He suggested more improvements could be
made to the entirety of the heavily trafficked
road.
This is probably something, a little like
the attic, that needs to be cleaned up, he
said.
The city will hire a consultant to help
coordinate the public outreach campaign
addressing the areas of El Camino Real in

Burlingame beyond Floribunda Avenue.

As officials look at potential traffic solutions throughout the area, resident Gavin
Duncan encouraged officials to keep an eye
on how prohibiting left turns at Floribunda
may impact traffic in surrounding streets.
He said it is likely many will begin cutting
through surrounding neighborhoods as they
attempt to access the commercial district near
Burlingame Avenue from El Camino Real.
Syed Murtuza, the citys director of Public
Works, noted Caltrans will not require a complete elimination of all accidents at
Floribunda Avenue to consider the turn prohibition successful, but rather a reduction of
the existing threat.
Jennifer Pfaff, a member of the citys
Historical Society and advocate for preserving the trees, thanked officials for coming to
a solution which addresses the concerns of
all parties.
Im keeping my fingers crossed this is
successful, she said.
Brownrigg expressed a similar cautious
optimism.
This is not a guarantee of success, but it is
a great start, he said.

Planning for California bullet

train allowed to move forward
By Juliet Williams
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SACRAMENTO A judge has

removed a major hurdle to Californias
high-speed rail system, ruling that the
$64 billion system does not violate
promises made to the voters who
approved it and that planning and
financing can proceed.
The ruling announced Tuesday came
in a lawsuit filed by attorneys for
Kings County and a group of landowners who claim the states projections
on ridership, construction and operating figures are not reliable.
They asked the judge to block the
state from spending money on the
project.
However,
Sacramento
County
Superior Court Judge Michael Kenny
said the 2008 ballot initiative specified only that the state could issue
bonds to construct a high-speed rail
system and did not prevent modifications to the plan voters were given.
He agreed with the plaintiffs that the
California High-Speed Rail Authority
has not proven the rail system will be
financially viable or can meet the travel times voters were promised but said
the system continues to evolve so it is
premature for the court to intervene.

Rendering of Californias high-speed rail system.

The authority may be able to
accomplish these objectives at some
point in the future. This project is an
ongoing, dynamic, changing project, Kenny wrote.
Voters have approved $10 billion in
bonds for what would be the nations
first high-speed rail line, and
California has secured another $3.2
billion in federal matching funds. In
addition, the project will receive
money each year from the states
greenhouse gas emission fund. The
amount will total $500 million this
year.

That funding leaves it far short of its

$64 billion price tag, and state lawmakers and the Republican-controlled
Congress have balked at providing
more money.
Still, backers believe segments of
the project can be operating within the
next decade.
Dan Ri ch ard, ch ai rman o f t h e
board that oversees the rail authority, expressed relief at the judges ruling.
He said a great myth has developed
that the system being built is different
than the one voters approved.

Nine hurt as train derails, car plunges into East Bay creek
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SUNOL A commuter train struck a

tree and derailed in storm-soaked
Northern California, plunging its lead
car into a rain-swollen creek and sending passengers scrambling in the dark
to get out of the partially submerged
car.
Nine people were injured, four seriously, the Alameda County Fire
Department said.
A mudslide most likely swept the
tree onto the Altamont Corridor
Express (ACE) train tracks Monday
evening, Union Pacific spokesman

Francisco J. Castillo said.

The train was traveling 35 mph in
the 40 mph zone, said Steve Walker, an
Altamont Corridor spokesman. The
first car was carrying six passengers
and one crew member when it fell into
Alameda Creek, Walker said.
Rescuers battled the creeks fastmoving currents Monday night to pull
riders to safety, Alameda County
Sheriffs Sgt. Ray Kelly said.
It was dark, wet. It was raining. It
was very chaotic, Kelly said. This is
an absolute miracle that no one was
killed, no passengers or first responders.

The San Francisco Bay Area has been

inundated with thunderstorms in recent
days that have swamped roadways and
creeks.
On Monday, some San Francisco
Bay Area roads were under more than a
foot of water. Santa Cruz and Santa
Clara counties saw about 11 inches of
rain during the weekend.
The ACE No. 10 commuter train was
traveling from San Jose to Stockton
when the first two cars went off the
tracks in Sunol, a rural area of Alameda
County about 45 miles east of San
Francisco. One toppled over, while the
other remained upright.

Cal State system says
campuses will stay open during strike
SAN FRANCISCO The California State University system is arranging extra security, reminding students about
their academic obligations and taking other steps to minimize the disruption of a potential faculty strike next month,
a high-ranking university official said Tuesday.
Vice Chancellor for Human Resources Lori Lamb told the
systems Board of Trustees at a meeting in Long Beach that
Cal State expects its 23 campuses to remain open and some
classes to be held during the five-day strike scheduled by the
California Faculty Association.
We certainly respect the right of faculty to strike, if it
comes to that, Lamb said. However, its incumbent upon
all of us to make sure it is done in a manner that is safe and
respectful to everyone and does not interfere with the ability of students to complete courses and graduate.
The faculty association, which also represents counselors, librarians and athletic coaches, has scheduled a strike
for April 13-15 and April 18-19 unless the system before
then increases the size of the pay raises the unions 26,000
members will receive this school year.

California Supreme Court

will stream arguments online
SACRAMENTO The California Supreme Court will
begin streaming oral arguments online as the judiciary
works to improve access and fairness in the court system,
the states top judge said Tuesday.
Chief Justice Tani Cantil-Sakauye told a joint session of
the Legislature that the streaming is part of the court systems effort to adapt following an economic downturn that
brought a sharp drop in court funding.
A spokesman for the Judicial Council of California, Cathal
Conneely, said officials are planning to livestream the courts
San Francisco arguments in May, but Los Angeles sessions

Man pleads to felony charges for

approaching teens at high school

Local briefs

A San Francisco man caught repeatedly

trying to lure teen girls into his car and asking them to take him to the restroom at a
South San Francisco high school campus
pleaded no contest to felony charges, prosecutors said.
Frederick Cayabyab, 26 pleaded no contest to three felony counts Friday of communication with a minor for a lewd act and
two misdemeanor counts of sexual annoyance of a child, according to the San Mateo
County District Attorneys Office.
In exchange for entering the plea,
Cayabyab will be sentenced to no more than
two years and two months in prison when
hes sentenced on April 15, prosecutors
said.
He was arrested on Aug. 27 after
approaching two girls, ages 13 and 15, near
the El Camino High School campus at 1320
Mission St. and asking them if theyd like
to chill with him in his car, prosecutors
said.
The girls declined and took down part of
his license plate.
After school that day, he returned to the
campus and asked four separate girls
between the ages of 14 and 16 to show him
to the campus bathroom. Those girls also
declined, prosecutors said.
An assistant principal at the school

noticed him there and that he seemed to be

out of place. When confronted, he drove
away from the campus, but the assistant
principal took down his license plate.
Police found and arrested him the next day
and he was booked into jail, where he
remains on $250,000 bail.

Menlo Park man guilty of traveling

to Cambodia for sex with minors
A federal jury in Los Angeles found a
Menlo Park man guilty of traveling to
Cambodia to have sex with underage girls.
After a six-week trial, Ronald Boyajian,
55, was found guilty Monday of traveling
with the intent to engage in illicit sexual
conduct, engaging in illicit sexual contact
with a minor in foreign places and committing the offenses while being required to
register as a sex offender, according to the
U.S. Attorneys Office.
In February 2009, Boyajian was arrested
in Cambodia while on his 35th trip to Asia
over a nine-year period. Boyajian began
traveling to Cambodia shortly after he completed parole for convictions from 1994 for
illegal sex with a minor and oral sex with a
minor, prosecutors said.
The verdict should send a clear and
resounding message that traveling overseas
to exploit children will not go unnoticed or

Man guilty of sharing

child porn gets jail, probation
A Redwood City convicted of sharing
child pornography in 2014 with an undercover FBI agent in an Internet chat room
was sentenced to one year in county jail and
five years of supervised probation Tuesday,
according to the San Mateo County District
Attorneys Office.
David Nash, 63, was charged with four
counts of distributing child pornography,
according to prosecutors.
An undercover FBI agent based in New
York allegedly contacted Nash in an
Internet chat room for child pornography
on April 4, 2014. Nash shared links to child
pornography images hosted in the United
Kingdom with others in the chat room,
prosecutors said.
Agents allegedly found him doing the
same thing a few weeks later, on April 21.
Investigators traced his IP address to Nashs

THE DAILY JOURNAL

home in Redwood City, prosecutors said.
Nash was arrested by the FBI on June 25
of last year and investigators collected further evidence that he had viewed child
pornography, prosecutors said.
He will serve the first three months of his
sentence in custody and the remaining nine
months on home detention. His wife is a
paraplegic and he cares for her.
He must register as a sex offender and he
must not associate with minors, according
to prosecutors.

Woman loses more

San Mateo County sheriffs deputies are
investigating a scam that occurred in Half
Moon Bay last month when someone called
an elderly woman and asked her to send

jailed in Mexico.
Between Feb. 13 and Feb. 20, a resident
in the first block of Anchor Way received a
call from an unknown person, according to
the sheriffs office.
After explaining the false story about her
son being jailed in Mexico, the suspect
then asked the woman to send money. The
victim sent $41,000 in an initial transaction and $63,000 in a second one, sheriffs
officials said.

Health law fines double

WASHINGTON Many people who went

Separately, among those who complied
with the law and took advantage of its taxpayer-subsidized private health insurance, 6

some portion of their nancial assistance.
Those payments also are trending higher
this year, averaging $579, compared with

Early data suggests
pedestrian deaths surged in 2015
WASHINGTON Pedestrian deaths
surged by an estimated 10 percent last year
as the economy improved, the price of gas
plunged and motorists put more miles
behind the wheel than ever before, according to an analysis of preliminary state trafc fatality data.
The growing use of cellphones distracting
drivers and walkers may also be partially to
blame, states a report released by the
Governors Highway Safety Association,
which represents governors highway safety
ofces. Warmer weather and shorter winters
along with a greater awareness of health
benets may also be encouraging people to
walk more.
This is really sobering news, said
Richard Retting, co-author of the report.
Pedestrian safety is clearly a growing
problem across the country.
The data analyzed were from the rst half
of 2015. If the trend holds true for the full
year, it would be the largest year-to-year
increase in pedestrian deaths since 1975
when the current federal system for recording trafc deaths was created.

Sanders is surprise victor in Michigan

By Julie Pace and David Eggert
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LANSING, Mich. Bernie Sanders

breathed new life into his longshot White
House bid with a crucial win in Michigans
primary Tuesday night, chipping away at
Hillary Clintons dominance in the
Democratic presidential race. Republican
Donald Trump swept to victory in both
Michigan and Mississippi, overcoming
fierce efforts to blunt his momentum.
Even with Sanders win, Clinton and
Trump moved closer to a general election
face-off. Clinton breezed to an easy victory
in Mississippi, propelled by overwhelming support from black voters, and she now
has more than half the delegates she needs
to clinch the Democratic nomination.
Trump, too, padded his lead over Texas Sen.
Ted Cruz, who carried the Idaho primary.
The front-runners turned their sights on
November as they reveled in their wins.
We are better than what we are being
offered by the Republicans, Clinton
declared.
In a nod toward the kind of traditional
politics hes shunned, Trump emphasized
the importance of helping Republican senators and House members get elected in the
fall. Having entered Tuesdays contests facing a barrage of criticism from rival candidates and outside groups, he also delighted
in overcoming the attacks.
Every single person who has attacked
me has gone down, Trump said at one of
his Florida resorts. He was flanked by
tables packed with his retail products,
including steaks, bottled water and wine,
and defended his business record more thoroughly than he outlined his policy proposals for the country.
Sanders, meanwhile, said Michigan signaled that we are a national campaign.
We already have won in the Midwest,
New England and the Great Plains and as
more people get to know more about who
we are and what our views are were going to
do very well, the Vermont senator said in a
statement.
While a handful of recent losses to Cruz
have raised questions about Trumps dura-

bility, Tuesdays contests marked another lost

opportunity for rivals
desperate to stop his
march to the nomination. Next weeks winner-take-all contests in
Ohio and Florida loom
large as perhaps the last
chance to block him
Bernie Sanders short of a contested convention fight.
Ohio Gov. John Kasich
was in a fight with Cruz
for second place in
Michigan and hoping a
good showing would
give him a boost heading
into next weeks crucial
contest in his home
state.
Ted Cruz
For Florida Sen. Marco
Rubio, Tuesday marked
the latest in a series of
disappointing nights.
He
emerged
from
Michigan
and
Mississippi with no new
delegates, a grim outcome for a candidate who
has the overwhelming
support from Republican
John Kasich senators, governors and
other elected officials.
Rubio insisted he
would press on to his
home states primary in
Florida next Tuesday.
It has to happen here,
and it has to happen
now, Rubio told supporters during a rally in
Sarasota.
If Rubio and Kasich
Marco Rubio
cant win at home, the
GOP primary appears set to become a twoperson race between Trump and Cruz. The
Texas senator is sticking close in the delegate count, and with six states in his win
column hes argued hes the only candidate
standing between the brash billionaire and
the GOP nomination.

WHO says Sexual transmission of
Zika more common than thought

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

GENEVA Sexual transmission of the

Zika virus is more common than previously
thought, the World Health Organization said
Tuesday, citing reports from several countries.
After a meeting of its emergency committee on Tuesday, the U.N. health agency also
said there is increasing evidence that a spike
in disturbing birth defects and neurological
problems are caused by Zika, which is mostly spread by mosquito bites. When WHO
declared the explosive outbreak in the
Americas to be a global emergency last

THE DAILY JOURNAL

month, it said that the evidence that Zika

was responsible was only circumstantial.
WHO Director-General Dr. Margaret Chan
said reports and investigations in several
countries strongly suggest that sexual
transmission of the virus is more common
than previously assumed. The U. S. is
investigating more than a dozen possible
cases of Zika in people who may have been
infected through sex. Dr. Bruce Aylward,
who is directing WHOs response to Zika,
said the cases seen so far of sexual transmission of Zika have been from men to women.
He doubted sex would play an important role
in the diseases spread.

Palestinian attacks kill

American tourist,wound 12 Israelis
JERUSALEM Palestinian attackers
unleashed a series of shooting and stabbing
assaults on Israelis on Tuesday, including a
stabbing spree in the ancient Mediterranean
port city of Jaffa that killed an American
tourist near where Vice President Joe Biden
was meeting with Israels former president,
police said.
The Jaffa assault came as Biden arrived on
a two-day visit as part of a regional tour of
the Mideast. He is to meet both Israeli and
Palestinian leaders and there have been
speculations he would try to revive the
moribund Israeli-Palestinian peace talks.
Police spokeswoman Luba Samri said the
man killed in Jaffa was an American tourist,
but further details were not immediately
available. A dozen Israelis, civilians and
police officers, were wounded in the
Palestinian knife and gun attacks.

IDOMENI, Greece Despair and confusion spread through the camp at the GreekMacedonian border Tuesday as thousands of
stranded refugees were forced to acknowledge that the route through Europe that had
carried their hopes and dreams was now shut.
The dozens of people crammed together at
the front of the line to the border crossing
looked at the closed gate and razor wire in
disbelief. One young Syrian muttered he had
been in the tent at the crossing for five days
without sleeping. It was his 15th day at the
Idomeni refugee camp.
One woman broke down, crying and
screaming as she held her baby in her arms
while a man tried to calm and comfort her.
Refugees asked reporters what had happened

in Brussels, and asked what they could or

should do next.
European Union leaders who held a summit with Turkey said early Tuesday they
hoped they had reached the outlines for a
possible deal with Ankara to return thousands of migrants to Turkey, and said they
were confident a full agreement could be
reached at a summit next week.
They also said the irregular flows of
migrants along the Western Balkans route
have now come to an end.
Nobody has crossed through the Idomeni
border gate since early Monday morning.
The nail in the coffin for the main Balkan
migration route came late Tuesday evening,
when Serbias Interior Ministry said
Slovenia will demand valid EU visas at its
borders as of midnight Tuesday.

Thinking on thinking

Just warming up
By Kent Lauder

hy is there still a debate

over climate change when
the evidence for its validity is overwhelming?
A brief history goes like this: In
the 1850s, physicist John Tydall discovered that carbon dioxide was a
greenhouse gas; that is, it traps heat.
In 1900, Swedish scientist-physicist
S. Arrhenius conjectured that, due to
increased coal burning during the
industrial revolution, the then-current
doubling of carbon dioxide might
warm the atmosphere. In 1930, historian James Callendar suggested that
there could be a real correlation
between rising carbon dioxide levels
and Earths warming. The Royal
Meteorological Society in 1938 came
to a similar conclusion. Chemist
Hans Suess and oceanographer Roger
Revelle, in 1957, were able to measure carbon dioxide levels more precisely and found a distinct, measurable correlation, and warned that there
could be far reaching consequences.
In 1965, President Lyndon
Johnson, in a speech to Congress,
stated that this generation has
altered the composition of the atmosphere through the steady increase in
carbon dioxide from the burning of
fossil fuels. In 1979, the National
Academy of Sciences (Charney report)
made clear statements that left little
doubt about causality.
Going from likely to denitely, the
International Panel on Climate
Change in the years 1995, 2001,
2007 and 2014, has consistently
stressed that human involvement has
affected climate change.
Early scientists certainly had no
bias or ax to grind against any antagonistic group, since none yet existed.
Doing pure science, they were doing
what scientists do; just careful inductive research.
Were they applauded for their
efforts? To the contrary. When it
looked like this science would actual-

ly be taken seriously, vested interests

oil and related
industries and their
nonscientic
cohorts decided
that they had to
ght back against
this inconvenient
truth. They began
perpetrating a scheme of denial: They
raised the wind of doubt and demonized and ridiculed, often portraying
the many thousands of scientists as
being part of some conspiracy (Why
or how they could ever conspire
makes no sense).
In their attempt to claim some kind
of objectivity, deniers would cherry
pick that one dissenting voice out of
a hundred as the sole source for truth.
Unfortunately, that scheme worked.
Much of the public, as well as inuenced politicians, were duped into
thinking that there was a legitimate
debate going on. The result was that
enough doubt was instilled to stave
off important political action.
The causal connection between
human-induced greenhouse gases and
the warming phenomenon has come
only after many decades of accumulated evidence. The deniers (not to be
confused with objective skeptics)
attempt to elevate themselves as
though they were on the same logicminded footing as the scientists. The
difference between them is the difference between carefully worked out
logic and imsy rationalized nonsense, or, as Twain would say: as different as lightning is from the lightning bug.
One recent letter writer reminded
readers that scientists are not infallible. Indeed, they are human, and can
take insults to heart like anyone else.
Many have been placed in the discomforting predicament of having to
lower themselves into the same dogmatic quagmire that deniers currently
inhabit.
The trained scientist is one who is
unhampered in his intellectual pur-

perspective
suit, is free from the forces of dogma
and, above all, skeptical. He not only
scrutinizes other scientists ndings
and correlations, but is critical of his
own as well, lest he be harshly scrutinized and discredited himself. So he is
necessarily careful in his research and
hesitant in his statements. This is
why science jargon is steeped in conditional speech, with such terms such
as perhaps, or needs further
research when offering up conclusions. Ponds and Fleishmans cold
fusion miscalculation was one example of how quickly bad science was
discredited under the close scrutiny of
other scientists.
Are deniers the at earthers of
today? Yep. Climate study through the
diverse elds of geology, chemistry,
botany, biology, meteorology,
oceanography, et al, have conrmed
the hypothesis of articially induced
global warming. Due to the mountain
of evidence, scientists no longer
hedge their bets on this topic, but
proclaim it as an observed fact; as
solid as Galileos proclamation of a
sun centered solar system, or as
Darwins ndings on evolution (amazingly still under siege).
Just like big tobaccos stalling tactics of the past, deniers claim that the
facts are not all in. But they are running out of qualied scientists for
support, and may need to rely on
resources from other elds. I propose
art historians; maybe blacksmiths.
Mystics perhaps? None qualied of
course, but conforming opinions can
be weaseled out of at least someone
just the same.

n America we have everything we need except

the most important thing of all time to
think and the habit of thought. Norman
Cousins, Human Options.
It was quite disturbing reading last fall about some college students and their parents complaining about the
students being required to read books in some classes
that were written by authors who challenged their thinking their preconceived ideas that they considered
infallible. They apparently held certain beliefs that they
considered sacrosanct and should not be questioned. How
pathetic that some college students might be exposed to
thoughts that conflict with their preconceived ideas! No
doubt they had been brainwashed as young children and
neither they nor their parents could handle having their
sclerotic mindset disturbed.
This brought to mind a
very unusual philosophy
class that I attended in the
80s at Skyline College.
We didnt learn about
Plato, Aristotle or
Socrates, but we learned a
lot about ourselves and
others. Maybe the
unorthodox approach to
philosophy left much to
be desired when it came to
fulfilling the lower division requirements for
philosophical study especially if a student was going on
to upper division study, but all during the semester I kept
thinking how that class would be valuable for every
young person (and apparently some parents). The professor of that class encouraged us to ask questions, look
within yourselves and think about things that otherwise
may never have entered our minds.
Some of the students couldnt hack it so they dropped
out. A few I talked with were disturbed by the lack of
structure in the class no textbook, no tests and
they couldnt get into things like creative visualization,
producing a journal and the probing of the mind that
constituted much of the requirements. These young people were already becoming rigid, static and closed to new
ideas. It seemed that thinking about thinking was threatening to them.
Not long after that I enrolled in a marvelous College of
San Mateo TV course, The Art of Being Human where
you could learn a great deal about philosophy and the
rewards of living humanistically. The lectures on TV and
the textbook of the same title made you think about such
questions as: How do we find happiness? What is love?
How is freedom expressed? How many ways are there to
be spiritual? For what in life are you most grateful? Who
do you most admire and why?
These are the kinds of questions that a lot of young
people need to explore because they are trying to build a
foundation of ethics and values to guide them in developing a constructive philosophy of living. They are also
the kinds of questions older people benefit from pondering to help open their minds and keep stagnation at bay.
Our minds benefit from exercise as much as our muscles
do, yet we rarely hear anyone recommending that we do
mind aerobics. The person who invigorates his body
with exercise (possibly jogging alone for miles) is
looked upon as a physical fitness buff to be emulated.
Someone who enjoys time alone in deep and critical
thought and the exercising of the mind is, by many, considered somewhat strange, especially if it doesnt bring
in profit. Our culture rarely rewards the habit of thought.
Thinking critically does not necessarily mean finding
fault. According to the authors of The Art of Being
Human, it is using careful analysis to lead to an evaluation. It is an activity of the mind which carefully
defines, describes and analyses something a speech,
an event, a political decision, a family dilemma. You
dont put any label on the subject or criticize until all
the data is in. Its not easy.
Non-critical thinkers take things literally. Their tendency is to jump to conclusions, refusing to be influenced by facts that dont fit their preconceived idea of
right and wrong, black and white. Instead of thinking of
ways to creatively solve problems and live their lives,
they are constantly trying to justify themselves at all
times and at all costs.
Especially during this politically saturated year, it is
important for voters to keep an open mind, to consider
both sides of a question even if they have a hard time
justifying those that they dont agree with. Its also
important to be very wary of politicians who, because of
their mental sclerosis, refuse to compromise and/or consider alternatives.
Ours is an age which is proud of machines that think
and suspicious of men who try to. H.M. Jones.

Study: Renters rise extending

beyond big U.S. cities to suburbs
By Jennifer Peltz
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK In the American

imagination, suburbs are places to
buy a house and put down roots. But
a growing percentage of suburbanites rent, according to a new study.
About 29 percent of metropolitan-area suburbanites were renters
in 2014, up from 23 percent in
2006, according to a report being
released Tuesday by New York
Universitys Furman Center real
estate think tank and the bank
Capital One.
The finances of home ownership
since the mortgage meltdown
might be a lead reason for the
change, but the cost of renting also

is rising in most of the biggest metropolitan areas, the study found.

Adding to data showing a national rise in renters in the past decade,
the report zooms in on the metropolitan areas encompassing the
nations 11 most populous cities:
Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, Dallas,
Houston, Los Angeles, Miami, New
York, Philadelphia, San Francisco
and Washington. For a national
benchmark, the researchers also
looked at all metropolitan areas
encompassing a city of at least
50,000 people.
Its the extensiveness of the
affordability problem that is
notable, Laura Bailey, Capital
Ones managing vice president of
community development, told the

during the Lunar New Year holiday

combined to depress sales.
Customs data also showed
imports fell 14 percent.
In overseas trading, nearly
every major market fell. Japans
Nikkei 225 dropped 0.8 percent
and South Koreas Kospi lost 0.6
percent. In Europe, Frances CAC
40, Germanys DAX and Britains
FTSE 100 each fell 0.9 percent.
Investors are looking ahead to a
policy announcement from the
European Central Bank on
Thursday. Further stimulus moves
are expected, but its unprecedented program of buying bonds and

But Chief Investment Ofcer
Bill Stone of PNC Asset
Management Group said investors
have been worried that the climb
was not sustainable given trouble
overseas, and the drop in oil and
Chinese trade data pushed many of
them to sell.

said. People are taking some
prots off of the larger run-up
from the low.
Chinas report showed exports
plunged 25 percent in February
from a year earlier, as weak global
demand and a business shutdown

Associated Press before the reports

release.
Still, the study shows some of the
nations biggest rental markets
have become more, not less, affordable to their typical tenants.
Renting is still more common in
big cities than their suburbs. In
Miami and New York, about twothirds of residents rent. But the gap
is narrowing.
In the Atlanta area, the increase in
the suburban rental population from
2006 to 2014 was twice the size of
the entire tenant population in the
city itself. Eighty percent of the
growth in Dallas-area renters happened outside the city limits.
Nearly half of residents outside the
city of Los Angeles are tenants.

Amazon to open
brick-and-mortar bookstore
SAN DIEGO Months after
online retail giant Amazon opened
its first brick-and-mortar retail
bookstore in Seattle, the company
is planning another one for San
Diego.
The Union Tribune newspaper
reports the San Diego store, called
Amazon Books, will open this
summer at Westfield UTC mall.
The newspaper says the upscale,
outdoor shopping center is similar
to the site of the Seattle store that
opened in November.
The company said last year that
the Seattle store was to be a physical extension of its website, combining the benefits of online and
traditional book shopping.
Prices at the brick-and-mortar
stores will be the same as for
books sold online.

USF women end 19-year NCAA tournament drought

By John Marshall
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

San Francisco fell into a huge hole, looking as if it was going to blown out of the
game and its chance to end a long NCAA
Tournament drought.
Like they have all season, the Dons dug
down and fought back, getting themselves
back into the game and, eventually, into the
bracket.
Taylor Proctor scored 27 points, Zhane
Dikes added 21 and San Francisco earned its
first trip to the NCAA Tournament in 19

years with a 70-68 victory over BYU in the West

Coast Conference title
game Tuesday.
We get down to the
nitty gritty on every
play, Dikes said. I
would definitely describe
us as a relentless team.
Top-seeded BYU (26Taylor Proctor
6) jumped out to a big
early lead in the rematch of last years title
game, but the sixth-seeded Dons settled
down after a shaky start to make it close
heading into the fourth quarter.

Dikes hit two free throws with 14 seconds

left to put San Francisco (21-11) up 69-68
and Proctor, who had 10 rebounds, hit 1 of 2
with 5.9 seconds left to give BYU one last
shot.
The Cougars never got it off, with Dikes
stripping Kalani Purcell on the final play,
giving the Dons their first WCC title since
1997.
I dont think anyone is surprised by this
at all because its what weve been working
for, USF coach Jennifer Azzi said.
WCC player of the year Lexi Eaton
Rydalch, scored 11 points in the first quarter, but had to work much harder the rest of

the game. She finished with 23 points on 7of-21 shooting before fouling out with 49
seconds left.
Purcell had 17 points and 16 rebounds for
BYU, which should still get into the NCAA
Tournament despite falling short of repeating as WCC champions.
Its tough, well probably hang on it a
little bit, but the seasons not over, Purcell
said.
BYU won the two regular-season meetings: easily in San Francisco and on an
improbable shot in Salt Lake City, where

HMB hopes for different result; M-A, Serra take their shots in Division I and II
By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

A year ago, the Half Moon Bay boys basketball team ended the season with a thud.
The Cougars lost their regular-season finale
to rival Terra Nova and had to share the
Peninsula Athletic League North Division
title with the Tigers.
Then, Half Moon Bay was stunned in the
PAL tournament semifinals. Selected to play
in the Open Division, the Cougars went two
losses and out before ending the season
unceremoniously with a first-round loss in
the Nor Cal tournament.
For six weeks (in PAL North play), were
not playing anybody who is pushing us,
said Half Moon Bay coach Rich Forslund.
Then, the switch flips (in the postseason).
You go from six weeks of non-competitive
basketball and you have to ratchet it up.
Were just not mentally ready.
The end of this season was threatening to
finish the same way, but this years squad
which returned six players from last
years meltdown appears to have the ship
pointing in the right direction as the topseeded Cougars prepare to face 16th-seeded
Lick Wilmerding-SF in the first round of the
Nor Cal Division IV tournament at 6 p.m.
tonight. Half Moon Bay went undefeated in
winning the PAL North Division title and
advanced to the finals of the PAL tournament
before losing to Menlo-Atherton.
They gave Bellarmine a run for its money
in the first round of the Open Division,
before losing 44-33. But instead of turtling
and bowing out with another loss, the
Cougars gritted their teeth and went on to
capture the consolation final, beating Palma
61-45 in the semis and blasting M-A 61-41
in the final.
Forslund said he has a seen a change in his
team since he called them out after their loss
to M-A in the PAL tournament finals and he
believes it will give them an edge going forward.

As the Menlo-Atherton girls basketball

team Wednesday makes its second appearance
in the CIF Northern California Division I
tournament in as many years, the Bears look
to leave behind the bittersweet memories of
last seasons one-and-done performance.
It wasnt necessarily the 51-48 loss to
James Logan-Union City in the opening
round of the 2015 tournament that was so bittersweet, as it was the sting of wondering
how things might have been different if star
forward Naomi Baer had been able to play in
the game.
Baer, now a freshman at Pomona-Pitzer
College, was the senior last season around
whom the Central Coast Section Division I
runner-up M-A team ran. When she tore up her
knee in the CCS championship game, however, Baers season ended; and, summarily, so
too did the Bears season.
It was a really good game and everybody
fought really hard, Baer said of the Nor Cal
opener. But it was really sad. It was hard to
just watch.

We have a lot of discussions as an offense
about being aggressive, about getting your
pitch and getting good swings at it, and I
think weve done a good job of doing that all
spring, DeShields said. We take that to
heart. Its just a matter of just finding the barrel of the bat and taking good swings and taking a good approach at the plate.
Rangers starter Derek Holland allowed two
unearned runs and three hits in three innings.
Rangers right field prospect Nomar Mazara
appeared to catch Coco Crisps third-inning
fly to the warning track, but dropped the ball
after a couple of steps for an error that allowed
Billy Burns to score from first and Crisp to

for the As. Reliever Dillon Overton struck out

GIRLS
Continued from page 11
The fate of the 2014-15 Bears is the best evidence of how important Baer was to the team.
When she first injured herself in the CCS championship game against North Salinas, M-Aheld
a 45-40 lead. She came off the floor suspecting
she had dislocated her right knee. She soldiered
through the pain, had the knee wrapped and
returned to the floor with M-A clinging to a 4948 lead.
Bad decision, Baer said. We thought it was
probably just a dislocated knee ... so we
wrapped it up and hoped for the best. I think the
idea was it was one of the last games of your
career anyway. So what can go wrong?
Then, like something out of a bad movie,
North Salinas took its first lead of the second
half on the very play Baers high school career
ended. Baer was manned up against North
Salinas guard Jordyn Enos. Enos looked to
pass, so Baer leapt up with arms waving; but as
she landed, her knee gave out causing her to
crumble to the floor at Santa Clara Universitys
Leavey Center in agony.
With Baer clutching at her knee, crying in
pain, Enos sidestepped and pumped in a 3pointer to give North Salinas a lead and would
go on to win 60-53.
Baers injury a torn ACL that would require
surgery cost her not just the end of her senior
season at M-A, she also missed the 2015-16
season for the Pomona-Pitzer womens team,
despite her best efforts to get back on the court.
She said she has no way of knowing exactly
when she suffered the ACL tear.
I think when I fell or when I tried to come
back in the game, at one of those points my
ACL had completely torn and I also tore some
meniscus, Baer said.
It has been a long road to recovery which Baer
still has not fully traveled. The initial prognosis was she would need a full year to recover
from her March 2015 surgery. She, however,
had designs on returning even sooner. And after
spending all of April essentially living on the
couch, she set out to return for her true freshman

season with Pomona-Pitzer. That optimistic

timetable took a hit when she had to go back
under the knife in August 2015 to remove scar
tissue from the knee.
I started the year hoping I would be playing
in January but that obviously didnt happen,
Baer said. I gave myself nine months and
thought that would be OK. But obviously my
body wasnt ready.
Baer spent the 2015-16 season on roster with
a medical redshirt at Pomona-Pitzer where
former Sequoia star Alaina Woo ranked second
on the team in scoring this season with 10.6
points per game and Baer was on the sidelines for all the Sagehens games. She even lobbied to get into a game during the closing minutes of the penultimate game of the season Feb.
20 against University of La Verne. But she said
her trainers response to the request was: No
way, Jose.
Nearly all the way through rehab, Baer is still
pushing to return to 100 percent. Shes back up
to basketball speed but still has difficulty slowing down and stopping. The expectation is to
be ready to start her collegiate career as a redshirt freshman in 2016-17, however with head
coach Kathy Connell retiring in February after
20 years at the helm, Baer doesnt know how
she will fit into the teams plans going forward.
I don't know, Baer said. Its going to be
interesting. We have a new coach coming in. So
I dont know what to expect. Hopefully Ill just
go back to fast-breaking and driving, which is
my main thing.
Pomona-Pitzer has a history of success.
Under Connell, the Sagehens won three
Southern California Intercollegiate Athletic
Conference titles. And while the team posted an
11-14 overall record this season, Baer is on a
mission after missing her chance to win a CCS
title as a senior at M-A.
I have an unfinished championship that
needs to be won, Baer said.

M-A has unfinished business

The Bears (25-4 overall) enter the CIF
Northern California tournament for the second
straight year, opening play Wednesday as the
No. 4 seed. M-A will host No. 13 WashingtonSF (13-11) at 7 p.m.

THE DAILY JOURNAL

PAL South Division champion M-A is built

around its post game this season. Its twin towers are junior forward Ofa Sili and sophomore
center Greer Hoyem. Hoyem captured PAL South
Division Most Valuable Player honors this season. Yet the Bears did not win a game in the CCS
Open Division tournament this season.
Baers younger sister, junior Ilana Baer, has
really come into her own as the teams point
guard this season. And while M-A lost last
years CIF tourney opener by three points,
sharpshooting sophomore Carly McLanahan is
capable of closing that margin in an instant
from beyond the 3-point arc.

South City still alive

The glass slipper may not have fit the South
City girls basketball team, but unlike
Cinderella, the clock has not yet struck midnight on the Warriors basketball season.
By virtue of finishing runnerup in the Central
Coast Section Division III tournament, the
Warriors received a bid to the Nor Cal tournament.
Seeded 11th, South City opens Nor Cal play
on the road against No. 6 Tamalpais of Marin
County. The Red Tailed Hawks have amassed a
record of 27-5, going 12-2 in league play and
sharing a Marin County League title. They were
blasted by a nationally-ranked Miramonte
squad in the North Coast Section Division III
championship.
The Warriors will have their work cut out for
them against the Hawks, who have nine players
who stand 5-7 or taller. To put that in perspective, South City had only seven players on its
roster when the Warriors faced Saratoga in the
CCS Division III title game.

Will rivals meet again?

Two of the best teams in the West Bay
Athletic League, will take their shots at winning a state title as Menlo School earned the
No. 2 seed and rival Sacred Heart Prep was seeded No. 4.
Both teams have first-round byes and will
host a team to be determined in a quarterfinal
game Saturday.

get too ahead of yourself. Youve got to stay
as patient as possible. We dont want anybody trying to rush to the playoffs and skipping any lessons we might learn in these last
20 games about ourselves.
Curry scored 41 points Monday in another
spectacular outing. It was his 12th 40-point
performance of the season, most by a
Warriors player since Hall of Famer Rick
Barrys 15 in 1974-75.
We are winning and Steph is bailing us out
an awful lot and he bailed us out tonight, Kerr
said. But we cant count on that and we cant
rely on that. We need to get back to being the
best defensive team in the league, which we
were a year ago - which we are not right now
anywhere close to.
Curry considers it his job as Golden States
best player not to mention the NBAs
biggest star to do just that.
My job on the floor is to help our team
win, he said. I kind of see it as thats what
Im supposed to do.
Despite the struggles of the past couple of
games, Kerr realizes how special his teams
unbeaten run at home is. He was part of history himself alongside Michael Jordan in
Chicago.
He was on that Bulls team that won 44 in a
row at the United Center, and now the Warriors
are trying to top Chicagos record 72-win season that year.
Remarkable by our players over these last
two years, Kerr said. The effort and the consistency it takes to do that. Pretty amazing.
There are so many games where the ball could
bounce either way and we definitely had some
of those during the streak. Could have lost
several times last year and could have lost
tonight very easily. We keep putting ourselves in position to win games and dominate
our home floor and Im really proud of the
guys for that.

49ers sign linebacker Ray-Ray Armstrong
SANTA CLARA The San Francisco 49ers have signed
linebacker Ray-Ray Armstrong to a one-year contract
extension that takes him through next season.
The team said it also tendered 2016 contracts Tuesday to
restricted free agent linebacker Michael Wilhoite and
offensive lineman Jordan Devey, an exclusive rights free
agent. General manager Trent Baalke had said last April he
planned an extension for Wilhoite a key defender after
Patrick Willis retired last March but nothing was ever
announced then.
San Francisco is set to begin its first free agency period
Wednesday under new coach Chip Kelly, hired in January
to replace the fired Jim Tomsula after a 5-11 season and
second straight year out of the playoffs.
Armstrong played in five games for the 49ers last year

Yomiuri Giants executives

to resign over gambling scandal
TOKYO Tsuneo Watanabe and two other executives of the Yomiuri Giants will resign to take
responsibility for a gambling scandal that has hit
Japans oldest professional baseball team.
The Central League team said on Tuesday that owner
Kojiro Shiraishi and team chairman Tsunekazu
Momoi will resign. The decision follows an
announcement earlier Tuesday that another Yomiuri
player Kyosuke Takagi was found to have bet on
baseball games.
Three of Takagis Yomiuri teammates received
indefinite suspensions in November, after they were
involved in the same gambling scandal.
The 89-year-old Watanabe, the most powerful individual in Nippon Professional Baseball for decades,
was the owner of the Giants until 2004. He had since
served as adviser to the team.

Rydalch got the Cougars off to a

career points in WCC history.
BYU continued to pour it on from
there, opening the game on a 15-2
run to build a 12-point lead after the

The Dons were much more efficient
offensively and did a better job of
containing Rydalch in the second
quarter, whittling the lead down to

San Francisco managed to keep the

Cougars in reach through the third

quarter, entering the fourth trailing
58-54 after BYUs Cassie Broadhead
hit a 3-pointer from the corner at the
buzzer.
The Dons tied it early in the fourth
quarter after Proctor hit a 3-pointer
and scored inside, setting up the close
finish that eventually went San

played incredibly hard the last two games. Probably the
hardest weve played all season, Forslund said. The three
seniors, in particular, are really carrying their weight.
Theyve combined for 44 points the last three games. I
called them out. Theyre responding quite well.
Those three seniors would be center Austin Hilton, shooting guard Tommy Nuo and point guard Jake Salinero. They
are the teams three-best scorers, with Hilton leading the
way at 14.3 points per game and Nuo at 12.1. In Hiltons
last two games, hes gone for 20 and 14 points, respectively. Nuo had 16 and 19 and Salinero, who is averaging just
under 9 points per game, had 8 and 11.
Forslund and the Cougars will need to see those three continue to play at a high level if they are to make a deep run in
the Nor Cal tournament. Up first is a Lick Wilmerding-SF
squad that went 25-5 and captured the Bay Counties West
Division title. The Tigers fell in the North Coast Section
Division IV championship game to Arcata, 72-64.
Despite being a 16-seed, Forslund is still wary of Lick
Wilmerding, especially the Tigers point guard, 6-4 Micah
Elan, who Forslund coached as member of his Olympic Club
team during Elans seventh- and eighth-grade seasons.
I didnt think he would be quite as good at this level, but
he grew, Forslund said. Hes going to Pomona-Pitzer,
which is a solid DIII school.
They are the 16 seed, but I think theyre better than that.
I think the last few seeds (to the bracket) get placed geographically. For a first-round game, theyre a pretty tough
draw. Theyve competed very well against good teams.
Unlike every other No. 1 seed in the other four brackets,
Half Moon Bay is the only one that has to play a first-round
game. The other four top seeds have a first-round bye.
You have to win four games to get the state title, as
opposed to if you get the bye, you only have to win three.
Its another game you have to win. Theres more of a chance
to stumble or someone to steal a game.
But the bottom line is, youre still playing at this time.
There are hundreds of teams that would love to trade places.

M-A will need big efforts from Eric Norton, PAL South Player
of the Year, if the Bears are to go far in the Nor Cal tournament.

Division I
The success of Menlo-Atherton this season was a doubleedged sword. The Bears were a strong favorite to contend for
the Central Coast Section Division I title this season, but
because they compiled a 26-4 record, went undefeated in
Peninsula Athletic League South Division play and captured
the PAL tournament, M-A was moved up to the Open
Division, where the Bears chances of winning a CCS title
were severely diminished.
M-A coach Mike Molieri is a strong proponent of leaving
schools in their division of enrollment and then have the
CCS higher-ups pick the teams to represent the section in
the Northern California Open Division tournament.
Molieri went on to say that the three public schools that
were selected for the Open Division had little chance
against the four West Catholic Athletic League representatives.
To be realistic, were not going to beat multiple WCAL

THE DAILY JOURNAL

schools back to back to back (to win an Open Division
title), Molieri said. I feel we were one of the better teams
in DI.
But the ultimate benefit of playing in the Open is guaranteeing a spot in the Nor Cal tournament and Molieri and the
Bears are looking forward to that challenge.
Both the fifth-seeded Bears and their opponent, fourthseeded McClymonds-Oakland, received first-round byes and
will meet at 6 p.m. Saturday at Merritt College in Oakland
in a quarterfinal matchup.
The Warriors went 21-9 this season, including a 7-3 mark
in the Oakland Athletic League, good for second place
behind undefeated Oakland Tech.
But Mack has won eight in a row, including an upset of
Oakland Tech in the Oakland Section championship game.
Theyre typical of a lot of OAL teams. Super athletic,
good size, couple of 6-6 guys, Molieri said. Theyre playing a lot better than earlier in the year.
Molieri said the Warriors like to get up and down the court
at a pace the Bears may not be comfortable with.
[Theyre running game] is something were going to
have to adjust to. We like to run up and down the court, but
[Mack is] a different type of running, Molieri said. Well
just pick our spots. We need to do the simple things better
than they do and be very disciplined.
Despite going just 1-2 in CCS Open play, Molieri
believes the caliber of competition should have his team
prepared for the amount of talent and success the Bears will
face in the Nor Cal tournament.
As a coach, I looked at what I have to do better to be prepared for Nor Cal, Molieri said. (The Open Division) was
a great experience. There are some good things that come
out of playing those kind of teams.
I think well be ready for Saturday. We feel confident. Its
definitely going to be a lot more of a challenge.

Division II
Fresh off a third-place finish in the CCS Open Division
bracket, Serra (22-5) was awarded the No. 1 seed in the Nor
Cal Division II bracket and will take on either No. 9 Leland,
which upset St. Ignatius for the CCS Division II title, or
No. 8 Mt. Eden-Hayward, which won a West Alameda
County Shoreline Division title before losing in the North
Coast Section Division II championship game.
Serra will face the winner at 4 p.m. Saturday.
Despite losing in the Open Division semifinals 53-51 to
Bellarmine, the Padres rebounded to beat Mitty 53-47 in the
third-place game. But there is nothing to say that Serra is
not a contender to advance to the Nor Cal and state championship games because they have been competitive with
everyone they have played this season. Their five losses are
by a combined 44 points. Throw out a 21-point loss to
North Coast Section power De La Salle and an 11-point loss
to Burlingame, and Serra lost its other three games by a
combined 12 points.

Cut fat but keep

the flavor with
cottage cheese
By Melissa dArabian
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Cottage cheese is a staple in my

home. I love its creamy, mild flavor. It pairs perfectly with some
garlic and herbs to make a protein-packed crudite dip, yet it also
is at home in a quick dessert of
cottage cheese and unsweetened
applesauce (a dArabian weeknight favorite). Half a cup offers
tons of protein (14 grams) plus
calcium and vitamins, and all for
just about 80 calories and only 3
grams of carbs. Plus, its inexpensive.
Cottage cheese is more than
just a snack; its also a handy and
nutritious ingredient. I love using
it as a swap for ricotta in just
about any recipe. Simply spoon
the cottage cheese straight from
the carton and use or, for extra
points, drain or blot the excess
moisture from the cottage cheese
and pulse in the food processor
and youll have almost exactly
the texture of ricotta cheese.
You can even use cottage cheese
as a base for a lusciously creamy
salad dressing. Just blend up the
cottage cheese with a few tablespoons of very hot water, which
will soften the curds just enough

to make the results creamy. Add

smashed garlic, lemon juice, fresh
herbs and black pepper, and you
have a tasty dressing or dip.
One of my favorite ricotta
indulgences is Italian ricotta
cake, which is something
between a classic cake and a
cheesecake. Sweet and fatty, a little sliver goes a long way.
Here is my cottage cheese
makeover of this yummy (caloriedense) treat. I use cottage cheese,
of course, but I also cut the butter
way down and kept the sugar on
the lower end (1 1/2 teaspoons
per serving). Loads of lemon zest
keep it exciting, and the almond
flour ensures that the fats are
healthy (and offer a smidge of protein and nutrients). All of which
makes my lemon cottage cheesecake not exactly as authentic as a
trip to Rome, but certainly a perfect way to end a springtime meal.

LEMON
COTTAGE CHEESECAKE
Start to finish: 1 hour
Servings: 12
3 eggs, separated
2 tablespoons unsalted butter,
room temperature
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup low-fat cottage cheese

Cottage cheese is more than just a snack; its also a handy and nutritious ingredient.
1/4 cup grated lemon zest (2 to
3 lemons)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup almond flour or meal
1 1/4 cups whole-wheat pastry
flour (or all-purpose flour)
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 cup low-fat milk
Powdered sugar, to serve
(optional)
Raspberries and chopped fresh
mint, to serve (optional)
Heat the oven to 350 F. Coat a
9-inch round cake pan with cooking spray, then line with kitchen
parchment.
In a medium bowl, use an electric mixer to whip the egg whites
to stiff peaks, then set aside.

In a large bowl, use the mixer to

beat together the butter and sugar
for 1 minute. Add the egg yolks
and mix again until creamy and
pale, about 2 minutes. Add the
cottage cheese, lemon zest and
vanilla, then mix on medium until
very well blended and the cottage
cheese is broken down a little.
In a medium bowl, sift together
the almond flour, pastry flour,
cinnamon, baking powder and
salt. Mix half of the dry ingredients into the butter and egg mixture and mix on low with the
mixer. Add the milk and the
remaining dry ingredients, then
mix on low to blend. Using a rubber spatula, fold in half of the
whipped egg whites rather briskly
until well mixed into the batter.

Fold in the second half of the egg

whites very gently, until blended
in, but not deflated.
Pour the batter into the prepared
pan. Bake on the ovens middle
shelf until the cake is golden and
springs back under light pressure,
about 35 minutes. Let cool for 15
minutes before removing from the
pan, then let cool completely.
Once cooled, dust the top with
powdered sugar and serve with
raspberries and mint, if desired.

TURF
Continued from page 1
Liz McManus, deputy superintendent in
the San Mateo Union High School, said district officials are keeping close tabs on
ongoing expert studies of the fields, but
will assume the surfaces are safe unless findings are presented otherwise.
Until a test proves there is a risk out
there, we are not going to spend millions of
dollars making changes to the fields, she
said.
Ryan Sebers, spokesman for the South
San Francisco Unified School District,
echoed those sentiments.
Per studies conducted by CalRecycle,
there appear to not be any adverse health
effects, he wrote in an email. The district
always takes the safety of students and staff
seriously and will make any changes based
on hard, scientific, factual information.
Jim Lianides, superintendent of the
Sequoia Union High School District,
expressed a similar perspective as well, via
email.
There is not any current definitive
research that has demonstrated that these
fields are unsafe, wrote Lianides. I understand that a study commissioned by the
state will be complete sometime in 2017.

Government studies
A legislative effort, initially spearheaded
locally by state Sen. Jerry Hill, D-San
Mateo, to investigate the safety of crumb
rubber, made from car tires, has gained traction recently as federal officials agreed to
further study the surfaces.

LOCAL
Obama last month, the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency, the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention/Agency for Toxic
Substance and Disease Registry and the U.S.
Consumer Product Safety Commission
launched an examination of the potential
health risks.
By the end of the year, the agencies are
expected to release a draft status report
detailing findings and outlining additional
necessary research areas and next steps.
The Office of Environmental Health
Hazard Assessment is also in the process
developing a similar study and the results
are expected to be issued in the coming
years.
Due to concerns regarding severe health
issues which could be caused by exposure to
crumb rubber, Hill has long called for regulations on the field installations.
Hill said the most recent investigation
represents a change of tone from federal
officials, who previously stated the fields
were safe.
The further study gives weight to issues
he raised previously, Hill said.
I think this shows there is more concern
and the federal government feels a responsibility to protect public health, he said.
Those who have concerns with crumb rubber frequently cite the potential danger
related to students playing on fields made
from materials which are known carcinogens.
Some young athletes who have contracted
rare forms of cancer claim their illness was
brought on by years of playing sports on
crumb rubber surfaces.
In recent years bills authored by the local
legislator have died prematurely, which Hill
claimed was due to opposition from labor
lobbyists interested in preserving the jobs
fueled by installing the surfaces.

In response to the challenges associated

with forwarding a successful restriction on
crumb rubber field installation, Hill initiated an effort requiring agencies to consider
purchasing fields which uses an alternative
infill composed of organic materials, such
as, coconut fibers, rice husks, sand or virgin crumb rubber.
Lianides said the Sequoia Union High
School District has looked into the other
available surfaces and found they were not a
perfect solution either. We did at the time
we replaced the fields several years ago, he
said. Alternative products all have their
own issues and limitations.
He said some of the fields which use
organic substances require regular watering
to maintain softness. One of the perks commonly cited by districts when considering
installing synthetic surfaces is that they
require less maintenance and water than natural grass fields.
The four artificial surfaces at fields in the
Sequoia Union High School District were
replaced a few years ago, and do not contain
synthetic rubber pellets, said Lianides.
Sebers said fields using organic or alternative materials are often too expensive for
school districts operating on a tight budget.
Tearing out any synthetic surface and
replacing it with a new material is very cost
prohibitive to a school district with limited
funds, he said.
South San Francisco Unified School
District has crumb rubber artificial surfaces
installed at El Camino and South San
Francisco high schools.
McManus agreed, and said replacing the
artificial surfaces at Burlingame, San
Mateo, Hillsdale and Aragon high schools
could cost the district between $6 million

various backgrounds.
The library is an important collaborative
project because the City Council and the
Board of Supervisors realize that by investing in the library, we are investing in the people of San Mateo County, Mayor Rick
Kowalczyk wrote in an email. The result is
that we are able to fund the new library with
no tax increase whatsoever to the community. I think this is the greatest gift that we can
give to Half Moon Bay and the coastside.
Supervisor Don Horsley noted his coastside district is home to many who could benefit from having the resources provided at a
new facility.
We have a fairly large population of recent
immigrants to this country who need to learn
to speak English, we have farmworkers and
children of farmworkers who need to learn
how to use computers, Horsley said.
Libraries dont just do what they used to do,
which was quiet spaces for just books. Theres
lots of learning that goes on, programs for

kids and seniors and everyday people.

Councilwoman Marina Fraser said she first
approached Horsley seeking to avoid taking
out lease revenue bonds. Fraser said shes
thrilled the county recognizes what a valuable
asset a new facility would be to thousands of
residents from Devils Slide to Pescadero.
It does service such a wide area of unincorporated San Mateo County and the county has
made reading and literacy a priority, Fraser
said. We have a diverse population and there
are some that do not have the option of buying new technologies or even having Internet
in their homes. So libraries really level the
playing field.
Horsley added he was pleased to see the
city, which has had its financial struggles,
work to come up with the $6 million as well
as other donations; which helped reassure
county officials the city is extremely committed to the project.
Fraser agreed while thanking the Friends of

and $10 million.
But she said a comprehensive and thorough investigation showing the fields
could pose a threat would compel district
officials to make the substantial investment
required to replace the playing surfaces, as
the health and safety of students is a paramount concern.
Obviously, we will never put our students
in risky situations, she said.

Results pending
Sebers said South San Francisco officials
are closely following the findings of the
ongoing studies, with an eye on transitioning to alternative surfaces, if necessary.
Moving forward, the district will review
all types of synthetic field material and
make determinations based on information
at that time, he said.
For her part, McManus said the district
has not received feedback from parents or
members of the athletic community who are
concerned about the health hazards associated with the fields.
She said she hoped studies find there are
no health hazards associated with the surfaces, as many members of community
beyond simply students depend on access to
the fields which would be rendered unavailable during any potential renovation project.
Ultimately though, McManus said officials are reluctant to put the considerable
effort and money into addressing the issue,
unless studies show there is a cause for concern.
We dont feel there is a problem, she
said. The studies basically have said they
find the fields to be safe. Until something is
said different, we are going to go on that
premise.
$400,000 toward the project.
Vice Mayor Debbie Ruddock noted the
countys generous zero-interest advance of
the citys share of the library construction
costs is most welcomed, she wrote in an
email. It will save us millions in interest
compared to the city-proposed lease revenue
bonds.
With the 2014 failure of Measure O, a proposed continuation of the citys half-cent
sales tax, Kowalczyk emphasized the loan
coinciding with the settlement of the citys
lawsuit debt is a major benefit to the taxpayers.
Noll & Tam Architects is slated to create the
environmentally-friendly facility that county
and city officials are thrilled to continue making advancements toward.
It will be a building that architecturally,
will stand the test of time, Horsley said. Its
going to be the center of innovation, education and community for the Half Moon Bay
and coastside area.

Celebrity chef Art Smith giving life

back to hometown with new school
By Kelli Kennedy
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NAPLES, Fla. Art Smith is coming

home. The celebrity chef who has served his
famous (and usually healthy) fried chicken
to Oprah Winfrey and four U.S. presidents is
returning to his birthplace in Jasper,
Florida, a city rich with Southern charm and
weeping willows. And hes bringing along
his entourage a husband and five children
as he works to reinvigorate this city of
just 1,600 people.
Smith and his husband, Jesus Salguerio
who married five years ago in an overthe-top D.C. wedding that included a performance by Moby have long been fixtures on the celebrity scene. Smith spent
nearly a decade as Winfreys personal chef
(and she introduced him to his new pal Lady
Gaga), has served a vegetarian version of
his fried chicken to the Dali Lama, and
recently catered an after-party for Sofia
Vergara and Joe Manganiellos star studded
wedding.
He maintains a breathtaking pace. In
between writing several cookbooks,
revamping his Chicago restaurant, a farmto-table concept now called Blue Door Farm
and Garden, advocacy work for gay rights,
and his cooking program for kids, the couple also adopted four siblings from Illinois
foster care and is raising the childrens 15year-old cousin. The plan was to stay in
Chicago, where he has made his life for 25
years.
But just two years after the adoptions were
finalized, Smith has moved his family to
the Florida-Georgia border. Responding to a
request from the mayor of Jasper, Smith purchased a grand antebellum mansion in nearby Madison that hes turning into a cooking and gardening school, while also
remodeling a Victorian farmhouse in Jasper
for his family.
The need for farm-to-table education has
never been greater, said Smith, 56.
Much of his focus in recent years has been
on creating healthier versions of indulgent
foods. The push-and-pull of obesity and
healthy eating is a personal matter for the
chef. He dropped 125 pounds four years ago
and even ran two marathons, but saw the
weight creeping back. So recently he began
a new exercise regimen and lost 45 pounds.
But he still loves his classic fried
Southern food.
You cant tell people who have been

other big project, a restaurant opening at

Disney Springs this summer. The bakery
and gardens also will supply food to three
other restaurants Smith is planning to open
in Florida that will center around his fried
chicken, of course.
Every time guests come to our restaurant
and eat a piece of cake they will have a part
in building a piece of hometown Florida,
said Smith.
When Smith decided to move back to
Jasper, it was with the goal of creating jobs
in this once thriving agricultural community. He is hopeful that the school, bakery
and acres of farmlands will boost the economy, drawing from local labor and local produce to fulfill his farm-to-table vision.
Even his children, ages 7 to 13, have a role
in Smiths plan to improve his community.
That part of the state, it aint Miami,
Smith said. My children are Cuban
Americans. By them coming to Jasper, they
are teaching the kids in the school how
important it is to be bilingual. Weve got a
lot of work to do and we dont need to alienate anybody. We need to be loving and giving and accepting. The town, weve sort of
come in like a tornado and they dont care.
Theyve been very loving and accepting.
But going from a childless couple to a
party of seven overnight was not easy.
They started with three nannies, but now are
down to just one. Smith also struggled to
keep up with their energy, but said its better now that he has lost weight.
For a man that spent half his life worshipping Martha Stewart and perfection,
thats not how life is, he said. A life with
kids is a life of imperfection. But what you
have to do is find perfection in imperfection, and thats the beauty of life.
His oldest child recently wrote an early
Valentine to his papis, thanking them for
saving him. I never want to lose you, the
boy wrote.
This made me cry and to think they wanted
to deny (gay) adoptions in Florida, said
When Art Smith decided to move back to Jasper, it was with the goal of creating jobs in the

Squash dish thats enough to please meat eaters

By Alison Ladman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Looking for a vegan main dish thats

robust enough to leave a meat eater satisfied? This stuffed squash dish has you
covered.
We start by halving and roasting
acorn squash, which have a rich, satisfying flavor that only deepens in the
oven. And since the bowl-like shape of
the squash just begs to be filled, we
created a mushroom-farro stuffing
spiked with lemon zest and juice. If
you dont mind adding some dairy,
crumbled soft goat cheese or feta would
be a delicious addition to the stuffing.
Each half is just about right as an
entree serving, but they are easily cut
into quarters to work as a side dish.
And if you want to feed a crowd, the
recipe is easily doubled or tripled.

WINTER CITRUS,
MUSHROOM AND FARRO
STUFFED ACORN SQUASH
Start to finish: 45 minutes
Servings: 4
2 medium acorn squash
Olive oil
Kosher salt and ground black pepper

The bowl-like shape of acorn squash just

begs to be filled.
1 1/2 cups thinly sliced mixed mushrooms
1 medium yellow onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 cups cooked farro
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
1 tablespoon minced fresh rosemary
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme

Zest and juice of 1 lemon

Heat the oven to 400 F. Line a small
baking pan (such as a 9-by-9-inch
pan) with foil and spritz with cooking
spray.
Cut the acorn squash in half from
stem to point and scoop out the seeds
and membranes. Slice off a small piece
of skin from the rounded side of each
half so the squash can sit flat with the
cut side up. Rub the cut side of each
half with a bit of olive oil, sprinkle
with salt and black pepper, then
arrange in the prepared pan. Bake for
30 minutes while you prepare the filling.
Meanwhile, in a medium saute pan
over medium-high, heat 2 tablespoons
olive oil. Add the mushrooms and cook
for 5 minutes, or until they begin to
brown. Add the onion and garlic and
cook for another 5 minutes, or until
the onions are tender. Remove from
the heat and stir in the farro, parsley,
rosemary, thyme, and lemon zest and
juice.
When the squash has cooked for 30
minutes, remove it from the oven and
spoon the filling into each half.
Return to the oven and cook for another 10 minutes, or until the squash flesh
is tender when pierced with a paring
knife.

HILLSDALE
Continued from page 1
taining the existing Bohannon company offices and Outback Steakhouse.
A central landscaped plaza will be surrounded by an underground fitness center, smaller retail space occupied by
lifestyle brand stores, a new food
court, a Cineopolis Cinema fronting
El Camino Real and a bowling alley
lounge.
Changes will roll through quickly
with the food court slated to close
April 10 and Sears to shut down shortly after. The luxury cinema is expected
to open in late 2017 and the entire
project could take about two years with
the new site fully constructed around
fall 2018, said Bohannon Marketing
Director Christine Kupczak.
While the proposal has undergone
several renditions over the course of
numerous community workshops and
Planning Commission meetings, the
council remained enthused the new
offerings would be a benefit to the
city.
The Bohannon presence in San
Mateo has been here longer than Ive
ever been alive, so Im glad that that
tradition is being carried on, said
Mayor Joe Goethals. I think its
something we are going to be very
proud of and thats going to be a
tremendous success for San Mateo.
With eager visitors expected to catch
a movie at the proposed Cineopolis,
bowl a round at the new lounge or dine
in the revamped food court; the success
may come with more traffic.
A group of neighbors residing directly behind the site petitioned

WATER
Continued from page 1
have failed so far.
We have our last group in here now
and are closing down Thursday and Im
laying off staff, the Rev. Larry Rice
told the Daily Journal Monday.
Water board officials, however, are
considering whether to allow the camp
to truck in water, Rice said.
Theres maybe a 5 percent chance,
he said about trucking water into the
camp. The camp typically trucks in
water during its busy summers to supplement its water supply but the state
contends that water should only be
used in dire emergencies, he said.
This is a dire emergency, Rice
said.
The camp is working on tapping its
own water from a creek on its property
but an effort to dig one well has already
failed.

Bohannon and the council to close a

little-used ramp to a parking garage off
31st Avenue. But despite several residents pleading for the entrance to be
closed to vehicles in an effort to keep
their residential street safe for children, the council argued it was a lastminute request and instead heeded
Websters suggestion.
As a condition of the projects
approval, the city will conduct a traffic
study after completion of the redevelopment and if the council finds it problematic for the neighborhood, retains
the authority to close the ramp. In the
meantime, Webster agreed to close the
entrance at 6 p.m.
I want to be mindful of the concerns
raised by the community, but I have to
weigh that against, in my mind, the
lengthy public process this application has already gone through. Its
been three years and I have to weigh
whether I believe a further continuance
is warranted, said Deputy Mayor
David Lim. I think we can all agree
that Sears has figuratively breathed its
last breath and at that end, the north
end of Hillsdale mall needs to be
redone, rejuvenated.
While many of the public speakers
agreed the redevelopment appeared an
overall improvement, a range of concerns were presented from arguing
much-needed housing would be a more
beneficial use of site, to Bohannon
hiring a general contractor that historically uses non-union workers.
But with Bohannon arranging for
the project to be constructed with
union carpenters and the council
emphasizing it would take up the issue
of the affordable housing crisis at a different time, the redevelopment will
proceed.

With construction will come new

sustainability features. Using recycled
water for irrigation, maintaining 200
kilowatts worth of solar panels and
installing a building automation system to promote efficiencies are some
of the methods the company plans to
use to achieve a Leadership in Energy
and Environmental Design, or LEED,
Gold certification.
I think the take away is this is a
green building project that the city can
be proud of and its a case study for
retail projects across the country, said
Michael Heacock, Bohannons sustainability consultant.
The new site was touted to be more
pedestrian friendly as it seeks to fit in
with the Caltrain station as well as the
proposed grade crossing at 31st
Avenue that could connect the shopping center to Bay Meadows, the massive transit-oriented development.
Improvements along 31st Avenue,
such as a roundabout at a confusing
five-way intersection as well as bettersynchronized traffic signals, are hoped
to ease mobility through and around
the site.
City officials noted the revamped
proposal better reflects the times and
transit-oriented development principles than existing conditions.
Bohannons architect Larry Weeks
said the design of the project will complement its environment while
respecting the neighborhood.
Our hope for this project is that it is
a quintessential expression of life on
the Peninsula; the reason we all chose
to live here and people chose to visit,
we want to bring to life and celebrate at
this place, Weeks said. We believe if
it is socially successful, it will be economically successful.

The cost to build a new water plant to

supply the camp will cost about
$350,000 he said.
If it works, the camp should be back
up and running by the fall. If it does
not, the camp will close permanently
and the property will be sold, Rice
said.
The camp also does not have the
$350,000 now to build a plant and is
hoping its thousands of visitors a year
will help pay for it.
The camp employs 20 people and 23
people, including young children, live
on the grounds all year.
The county supplied water to the
camp from Pescadero Creek for 21
years.
The primary use of the park systems
water has been by a small number of
park rangers who live on site and the
many short-term visitors to Memorial
Park campgrounds.
However, in recent years, Redwood
Glen has significantly increased the
number of its staff that live on-site full
time, causing the total number of full-

time residents relying on the

Memorial Park system to exceed that
allowed under the states transient
water system designation.
The regulatory landscape and water
realities in this region have made this
a really challenging process. We all
wish there could have been a different
outcome, county parks Director
Marlene Finley wrote in a statement.
If the county continued to provide
water to the camp, the state could fine
it $25,000 per day, according to the
statement.
The Memorial Park water system
cannot meet the regulatory requirements of the community water system
designation to serve more than 25 permanent residents, according to the
statement.
The camp operates year-round and
can accommodate up to 250 campers at
a time.

camp go to redwoodglen.com or email
