Republicans block Dem efforts
to boost tax benefits for parents
By Marcy Gordon and Erica Werner
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON House Republicans on Tuesday blocked
Democratic efforts to secure bigger tax benefits for parents
costs of raising or adopting children, as they drove toward
wrapping up their tax overhaul by weeks end.
The daylong debate by the Ways and Means Committee
came as the Senates tax bill started to take shape. That ver-
sion is expected to completely repeal the federal deduction
for state and local taxes, a flashpoint of contention for
Republican lawmakers from high-tax states like New York
and New Jersey, as well as Democrats. Concessions were
made in the House bill with a partial repeal.
The Senate measure also would retain the medical expense
deduction, which the House plan eliminates. And the Senate
would retain todays seven personal income tax brackets,
not collapse them into four like the House bill.
Republicans hope to get Democratic support for their
politically necessary legislation, and President Donald
Trumps top economic adviser Gary Cohn met with Senate
Democrats on Tuesday as Trump phoned in from his Asia
trip.
Democrats werent buying Trumps argument that the
emerging GOP tax bill is terrible for rich people. Ohio
Democrat Sen. Sherrod Brown said Trump made that claim
during the call.
But Brown said the Democrats adamantly disagree, telling
reporters, This bill is clearly overwhelmingly serving the
rich. Brown said Trump likes Democratic ideas such as
boosting the earned income and child tax credits for work-
ing families, but GOP leaders dont seem interested in them.
The House tax-writing panel voted 23-16 along party
lines to reject Democratic amendments affecting parents. In
its second marathon day of amendments and votes on the
sweeping, nearly $6 trillion bill, the committee also rolled
over other Democratic proposals, including one that would
have forced businesses to suffer the same loss of the deduc-
tion for state and local taxes as individuals.
The GOP plan calls for repealing the adoption tax credit,
a move roundly condemned by Democrats. One of the
defeated Democratic proposals would have restored the
adoption credit and allowed it to be fully refundable.

Idea at the heart of GOP tax
plan: trickle-down economics
By Josh Boak
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON The House
Republicans tax-cut plan springs from
a core argument: Whats good for big
business and the moneyed elite is
inevitably good for the economy and
everyone else.
Their plan would slash corporate tax
rates, end inheritance taxes for the
ultra-rich and create new tax advantages
for business owners. To help pay for
some of those breaks, the plan would
end tax deductions for college loans,
high medical bills, moving costs and
state and local income taxes.
It would also add $1.4 trillion to the
national debt over 10 years.
Taken as a whole, the tax plan would
drastically lighten the burden on the
powerful groups that Republican lead-
ers say would strengthen the economy
while eliminating some benefits for the
middle class theyve called their top
priority.
Some new benefits for ordinary
households like a family credit
would expire in five years. And some
existing benefits would erode with
inflation.
Repeal of medical deduction prompts tax bill pushback
By Ricardo Alonso-Zaldivar
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON The medical
expense deduction targeted for repeal
by GOP tax writers has helped to offset
costs including nursing home care and
fertility treatments, laser eye surgery
and travel out-of-state for a second
opinion on a rare cancer.
Several million people unlucky
enough to face big medical bills not
covered by their insurance would lose a
valuable deduction under the House
GOP bill. Groups representing older
people and patients are trying to save
it.
Anybody who is paying for the cost
If a worker in my district had to move because his employer
is forcing him to relocate his family or potentially lose his
job, can he deduct his moving expenses under this plan?
But the Trump administration and
Republican lawmakers argue that the
goodies they would bestow on corpora-
tions and the wealthy would, in the
political parlance of the 1980s,
inevitably trickle down to everyone
else.
Analyses from the White House con-
tend that cutting the tax rates that cor-
porations pay would ultimately result
in $4,000 in additional income annual-
ly for the average U.S. household. Its a
claim that many mainstream econo-
mists have disputed as improbable. And
its provided Democratic lawmakers
with a rhetorical line of attack against
the tax cuts: Theyre fundamentally
unfair.
On Monday, as the House Ways and
Means Committee worked its way
through the bill, Rep. Suzan DelBene
stressed what she described as the
inequality at the heart of the bill.
If a worker in my district had to
of nursing home care is paying a great
deal of money, and they are going to
lose that deduction, and their taxes are
going to go up, said Thomas
DeCoursey, a retired lawyer from
Kansas, in his 70s.
He relies on the deduction to help
offset costs associated with nursing
home care for his wife, who has
Alzheimers. Some of his own medical
expenses also factor in. DeCoursey
estimates that in a couple of years their
annual costs will pass $100,000.
There are a lot of people in my
shoes, said DeCoursey, who lives in
Leawood, a well-to-do Kansas City
suburb that voted for President Donald
Trump last year.

move because his employer is forcing
him to relocate his family or potential-
ly lose his job, can he deduct his mov-
ing expenses under this plan? asked
DelBene, a Washington state Democrat.
No, she was told by Thomas
Barthold, chief of staff for Congress
Joint Committee on Taxation.
But if a company, a corporation,
decides to close its facilities in my dis-
trict, fire its workers and move its oper-
ation to China, say, can it deduct asso-
ciated moving expenses under this
plan?
Yes, Barthold said. That company
could shrink its tax bill by deducting
moving costs something families
could no longer do.
By cutting the corporate tax rate from
35 percent to 20 percent, the bill would
reduce the tax liability of corporations
by $846.5 billion over the next decade,
according to the Joint Committee on
Taxation.
About 9 million households 6
percent of tax filers claim the med-
ical expense deduction, said Gordon
Mermin, a senior researcher at the
nonpartisan Urban-Brookings Tax
Policy Center. The annual cost to the
U.S. Treasury is about $10 billion,
which ranks it as a modest tax break.
Those who benefit tend to be middle-
income and upper-middle-income peo-
ple.
For the people who claim it, it is
not a trivial benefit, said Mermin.
The medical expense deduction is
also versatile. In addition to nursing
home care, not generally covered by

California approves rescue
plan for shrinking Salton Sea
SAN DIEGO California regulators on Tuesday approved
a plan to spend nearly $400 million over 10 years to slow
the shrinking of the states largest lake, a vital migratory
stop for birds and a buffer against swirling dust in farming
towns.
Funding for the Salton Sea is unclear but the plan enjoyed
support of major water agencies and environmental advocacy
groups and preserves a fragile peace among urban and rural
areas in California on distributing the states share of
Colorado River water. Authorities in Imperial Valley, home
to the 350-square-mile (560-square-kilometer) lake, had
threatened to derail a landmark water-sharing agreement
unless California did more to honor its commitment to a
long-term fix.
Kevin Kelley, general manager of the Imperial Irrigation
District, told the State Water Resources Control Board that
the plan would create a smaller but more sustainable lake.

Funeral Etiquette Advice:

Show Up, Be Brief, Listen
By Paul Larson
MILLBRAE Have
you ever attended a
funeral or memorial
service and felt ill-at-
ease, uncomfortable
or awkward when
talking to the family
of the deceased?
Have you ever
stumbled through your words and
condolences because you just didnt know
what to say or how to say it? Have you even
decided to not approach the family for fear
of saying the wrong thing or making a fool
of yourself? If so you are not alone. Many
people in this situation want to provide some
kind of comfort to the immediate family, but
just dont have the verbal tools to do so in an
assuring manner.
Learning Funeral Etiquette can be
useful. Using the right words at the right
time is an appropriate way to show that you
care, and in situations like this can be of
great help when provided correctly.
Standard condolences such as I am sorry
for your loss have become routine and
generic. A personalized phrase can be
welcomed such as John touched many
lives or I will miss John. DO NOT ask
the cause of death, offer advice or make
comments that would diminish the
importance of the loss such as Oh, youre
young and can marry again.
Other ways to demonstrate your support
include: 1. Listening. The family may feel
the need to express their anxiety, and giving
them that opportunity can be therapeutic; 2.
An embrace. This can show that you care
without the need for words; 3. Offering your
services. This shows the family that you are
willing to give extra time for them: Please
let me know if there is anything I can do to
help (be prepared to act if needed).
Even if you dont feel confident in
approaching the family there are other ways
to show that you care: 1. Attending the
funeral and signing the Memorial Book will
show the family that you took the time to be
there in support; 2. Dressing appropriately
for the funeral will demonstrate your efforts
to prepare for this special occasion (dark
colors are no longer a requisite for funerals,
but dressing in a coat, tie, dress or other
attire that youd wear to any special event
are considered a way of showing you care);
3. In certain cases friends are invited to
stand up and offer BRIEF personal feelings.
Prior to the funeral write a few key notes
and reflections which will help you organize
your thoughts. Even if there is no
opportunity to speak before a group you
may have a chance to offer your thoughts to
the family following the ceremony; 4. A
personalized card or note will help you
arrange your words better and can be kept
by the family. If you dont have their
mailing address you can send your envelope
to the funeral home and they will forward it
to the next of kin; 5. Providing flowers is a
long time tradition, or making a charitable
donation in the deceaseds memory will give
the family a strong sense of your regards; 6.
If appropriate a brief phone call can show
your immediate concern, but generally this
should be avoided to give the family the
privacy they may need.
If you ever wish to discuss cremation,
funeral matters or want to make pre-
planning arrangements please feel free to
call me and my staff at the CHAPEL OF
THE HIGHLANDS in Millbrae at (650)
588-5116 and we will be happy to guide you
in a kind and helpful manner. For more info

Ousted Catalan leader
challenges EU to speak out on crisis
BRUSSELS Catalonias ousted leader vowed Tuesday
to prolong the fight for independence from Spain and
urged the European Union to speak out
over the jailing of Catalan officials in a
rebellion case.
Carles Puigdemonts comments came
at a campaign-style rally in Belgiums

from Catalonia who greeted the deposed
president with chants of president and
freedom.
The mayors raised their walking
Carles
Puigdemont sticks, a symbol of mayoral power in
Spain, in the air at the end of his speech
and the crowd sang the Catalan anthem.
We will never renounce this ideal of a country, of this
notion of democracy, Puigdemont told the mayors, gath-
ered in a central Brussels art museum.
Flanked by four associates who fled Spain with him,
Puigdemont challenged the Spanish authorities and inter-
national community to accept the results of a snap Catalan
election on Dec. 21 if separatists win.
Puigdemont and his colleagues could face 30 years in
jail in Spain on charges of rebellion, sedition and embez-
zlement if Belgian justice authorities agree to extradite
them. Nine former Catalan government members have
already been sent to jail in Spain. One of them was
released on bail during the investigation.
We are the legitimate government of Catalonia and we
are going to carry on, former regional government mem-
ber Meritxell Serret told the audience, her voice breaking
with emotion.
Puigdemont also challenged the European Union to
finally make its voice heard. Catalan officials at the
Brussels event Tuesday urged European Union leaders to
take up the Catalan cause.
Is this the Europe you want, is this the Europe you want
to build, with a democratically elected government in
jail? he said before a group of mayors held up big letters
spelling Help Catalonia.

Trump warns North
Korea: Do not try us
By Jonathan Lemire and Jill Colvin
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SEOUL, South Korea President
Donald Trump delivered a sharp warn-
ing to North Korean leader Kim Jong
Un on Wednesday, telling him the
weapons hes acquiring are not mak-
ing you safer. They are putting your
regime in grave danger.
In a speech delivered hours after he
aborted a visit to the heavily fortified
Korean demilitarized zone due to bad
weather, Trump called on all nations to
join forces to isolate the brutal regime
of North Korea to deny it any form
of support, supply, or acceptance.
Today, I hope I speak not only for
our countries, but for all civilized
nations, when I say to the North: Do
not underestimate us. And do not try
us, he told South Korean lawmakers.
We will defend our common security,
our shared prosperity, and our sacred
liberty.
Trump had been scheduled to make
the unannounced early morning trip to
the DMZ amid heightened tensions
with North Korea over its nuclear pro-
gram.
The Marine One presidential heli-
copter left Seoul at daybreak and flew
most of the way to the DMZ but was
forced to turn back just five minutes out
due to poor weather conditions.
Reporters traveling in a separate heli-
copter as part of the presidents envoy
saw fog through the windows, and
weather reports from near the heavily
fortified border showed misting condi-
tions and visibility below one mile.
Pilots, officials said, could not see the
other helicopters in the air.

WASHINGTON When China rolls
out the red carpet for Donald Trump,
the grandeur of its welcome for the

will mask a sobering reality.
President Xi Jinping, Chinas most
powerful figure in a generation, is ele-
vating his nation as a global power.
Trump is unpopular and untrusted, pur-
sued by political scandal and questions
over his temperament as commander in
chief of the worlds most formidable

future of the worlds most populous and

Huckabee Sanders said the president
was disappointed he couldnt make the

something he wanted to do.
Before he left for Asia, a White House
official had ruled out a DMZ visit for
Trump, claiming the president didnt
have time on his schedule and that
DMZ visits have become a little clichi.
But Sanders said the visit had been
planned well before Trumps departure
for Asia. The trip was kept secret for
security reasons, she said.
Trump had been scheduled to make
the visit with South Korean President

After returning to Seoul, administra-

make a second landing attempt. At the
U.S. Armys Yongsan Garrison landing

The aborted visit came hours before

his two-day visit to the nation and

Honoring our veterans
Editor,
No veteran should ever be forgotten.
There is a ceremony to honor our veter-
ans on Saturday, Nov. 11. at the Golden
Gate Cemetery in San Bruno at 11 a.m.

Recognizing veterans
Editor,
On Nov. 11, 1919, President
Woodrow Wilson proclaimed Nov. 11
Armistice Day in order to commemo-
rate the end of World War I and the vet-
erans who served. Each year,
Americans gather to celebrate and com-
memorate the bravery and sacrice of
all United States veterans, on what is
now called Veterans Day. While most
people recognize veterans one day a
year, veterans service organizations
such as the Veterans of Foreign Wars
strive to highlight the importance of
veterans year-round. It is easy to over-
look the role that veterans play each
day in America, but impossible to for-
get the ones who made the ultimate
sacrice. This Veterans Day, I ask you
to stop and take a moment to thank a
veteran for their service, or contact
your local Veterans of Foreign Wars
post for ways that you can make a dif-
ference in the lives of veterans on this
special day, as well as throughout the
rest of the year.

talization, including Nazareth Ice Oasis
rinks reopening. Other ice sport facil-
ities bring more than 20 percent rev-
enue increases to surrounding business-
es; no doubt this will help reinvigorate
Bridgepointe.
My daughter loves skating; I truly
appreciate the years community mem-
bers invested in reopening the rink.
Casual skaters, gure skaters, families,
hockey players, curlers and beyond
worked hard to demonstrate the rinks
need; now its evident that Ice Oasis is
in high demand. While they are sched-
uling time for certain ice sports, there
is still massive demand for ice time.
What to do? The natural answer is that
a rink should be opened elsewhere to
accommodate this pent-up demand.
Soon, the city of Belmont will nish
its General Plan and Belmont Village
Specic Plan, setting the city in
motion for decades to come. How bet-
ter to serve recreational needs of our
community and region than ensuring a
rink also reopen in Belmont? While
this would not require a zoning change,
an ice facility could be a condition of
approval for new development at the
Iceland property. Alternatively, the
city could require a rink on the lot, but
not exclude additional development.
For example, they could have a restau-
rant, and condos above the facility.
There are so many ways to make this
happen. Our region will continue
growing as will the desire for family
recreation. Reopening a rink in
Belmont would be a gift to generations
of folks living in and around the area.

No false equivalency
Editor,
In his Oct. 23 Daily Journal guest
perspective, Race-baiting doesnt
work in San Mateo County, Mr. Curry
doesnt name the guest perspective he
is attacking. This is because if we were
able to refer to it, we would not be able
to locate any of the things he is accus-
ing it of. The piece by two women is
Renters rights are civil rights, by
Anne Bellows and Lorena Melgarejo in
the Oct. 16 edition of the Daily
Journal. He accuses those authors of
labeling all of SAMCARs membership
racists. I have searched their piece for
such a claim. It is nowhere to be found.
The authors never even use the words
SAMCAR or Realtor. They do,
however, discuss the history of racism
in housing, from segregation to redlin-
ing. Does he deny that history?

OPINION
Mr. Currys piece is an instance of
the reliance on alternative facts.
Neither is this its only disconcertingly
Trumpian feint. There is also its usage
of the I am rubber you are glue strate-
gy, accusing housing advocates of
race-baiting when it is patently the
other way around. SAMCARs political
wing has a record of some of the most
egregious race-baiting San Mateo has
seen, having spearheaded a campaign
in 2016 that had some supporters char-
acterizing renters as lazy moochers,
drug dealers and thugs.
If we are to be objective, we must
acknowledge who has been waging a
willfully divisive campaign in the
attempt to shut down the conversation
around housing. Let there be no false
equivalency between the real-estate
lobby and the residents working for
fairer housing options.

Russian meddling
Editor,
Perhaps we protest too much about
Russian meddling in our recent presi-
dential election. We also complain
about Russias ongoing propaganda,
and planting of fake news on us.
As I recall, our own
governmentbraggedabout how we
funded anti-Soviet radio broadcasts
aimed at Eastern European countries,
starting in 1949.
Later, we funded anti-Soviet radio
signals, jumping over The Iron
Curtain, to reach directly into Russia
itself.
Of course, our government let us
know how vital it was for us to inform
the captive people under Soviet domi-
nation about how bad their circum-
stances were, and how much better life
was on our side. I recall hearing
examples of our benign messages to
those poor, oppressed people but, after
nearly 70 years, can no longer recall
any specic examples of our messages
to them.
I do recall President Eisenhower urg-
ing Hungarians to stand up against
their Soviet oppressors, then when
Russian tanks rolled into Budapest, Ike
wrung his hands and expressed his
regret over the Russian invasion.
So it seems laughable and pathet-
ic that were expending so much
energy on matters that in the end will
be seen as trivial, as well as having
been unnecessarily hurtful to people.
Does the current kerfufe remind
anyone else of the turmoil that Sen.
McCarthy stirred up in the country in
the 50s over his fantasies about
Communist inltration into our vital
government positions?

Winners and losers
T
he American mind in particular has been
trained to equate success with victory, to equate
doing well with beating someone. Elliot
Aronson.
On Oct. 24, the Olympic torch was lit in Athens, Greece,
to begin its journey to the winter games on Feb. 9, 2018.
Add this to watching this years dramatic World Series and,
as entertaining and riveting as it was, I couldnt help but
wonder about our obsession with competition and its con-
troversial aspects.
In our culture, competi-
tion is like a national reli-
gion and to question our
extreme obsession with
competing and winning is
considered by many to be
un-American. Competition
permeates some cultures so
thoroughly that it is taken
for granted like its the
natural order of things.
After all, our free enterprise
system is based on it, isnt
it? Isnt capitalism based
on the assumption that our
self-worth is measured by
how much more we have than the other person more
money, status, control, beauty, strength, trophies, etc.?
You may say that competition is a good thing even
essential and how wed still be swinging from tree to
tree without it. But maybe our trees wouldnt be deteriorat-
ing at such a rapid rate and we wouldnt be so inundated
with toxic emissions of industry if we werent so blessed
with so many of the products of competition. As Ale
Kohn wrote in No Contest: Business people and public
ofcials use the term as an honoric, discussing ways that
they can make their companies and countries more com-
petitive and never pausing to ask whether a competitive
system really is the best possible arrangement.
Of course, extreme competition always peaks during the
World Series and the Olympics. It can be painful to watch
such obsessive and fanatical devotion to outdoing the
other, especially when considering the losers. It makes
you wonder if all of that extreme competitive obsession is
a good thing. Maybe its just me, but sometimes I just
want to say to the competitors, Relax already!
At the risk of being called sacrilegious, politically
incorrect, subversive or whatever, I offer some important
ways that the extreme emphasis on winning is not all that
its cracked up to be. Consider the following:
Competition promotes that often-repeated myth that if
we try hard enough and totally dedicate ourselves that we
will prevail. Easy for the winners to say, but often devas-
tating to the losers. This works only for the few who have
the right combination of innate ability, inner drive, out-
side support and/or coercion, a lot of luck, and a willing-
ness to be consumed by their goal.
Olympic competition, especially, demands extreme con-
formity. Anyone serious about competing is required to
train, behave and participate according to rigid standards
so they will t into the mold. As a result, vision becomes
very circumscribed and creativity stied because the
required regimen leads to athletes avoiding anything that
could jeopardize their chance of victory or success. As
kids, who makes the decision to compete? It is often a
manifestation of over-controlling and overzealous parents
who use their children for self-aggrandizement. As a result,
the kids often miss out on important stages of develop-
ment. As one gold medal winner at the last Olympics was
heard to say: I spent my entire life planning for this
moment. It is my mothers dream.
When so much emphasis is placed on performance,
where defeat is absolutely unconscionable, and such great
coaches often lose their perspective and become desperate
to win. They may go to extreme lengths to feel superior.
Toward the end of the last Olympics, commentators
remarked about the devastating toll (physical and mental)
that it takes on many competitors.
Rivalry precludes a sense of cooperation, community
and connection with others. When competition is com-
bined with ruthlessness as is often the case in the cor-
porate world and politics havoc can ensue. Whether the
Olympics or corporate interests or politics, an obsession
with being the best can be a sign of serious dysfunction as
we are experiencing in the White House these days where
we see gratuitous competition instead of cooperation.
Even within the family there is rivalry a muted but
often desperate struggle that treats approval as a scarce
commodity and turns love into a kind of trophy, wrote
Kuhn. It can begin in the cradle when offspring are com-
pared with other infants and parents dream of the day when
their son will become a star in some sport and/or daughter
will win beauty contests and their lives will be regulated
and inuenced accordingly. So many are inundated with the
obsession with winners and the compulsion to be the best.
And we wonder why we have so much trouble living with
love, empathy, compassion and peace.

Banks, smaller companies take stocks lower

By Marley Jay
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK U. S. stocks
slipped Tuesday as smaller compa-
nies and banks took their worst
losses in a few months. With
stock indexes near record highs,
investors moved some money
into big-dividend stocks like real
estate companies.
Banks and other financial com-
panies have been climbing over
the last two months, but Tuesday
they skidded as interest rates
moved lower. Small, domestical-
ly-focused companies had their
worst day since mid-August as
House Republicans began making
changes to their tax bill. Their
Senate counterparts are expected
to introduce their own bill soon.
Smaller companies tend to pay
higher tax rates than their bigger
peers because they make more of
their money in the U.S. and dont
have as many ways to reduce their
taxes.
Financials would be a primary
beneficiary of a 20 percent corpo-
rate tax rate because theyre
domestically based and they pay
domestic taxes, said Quincy
Krosby, chief market strategist at
Prudential Financial.
While the pace of company
earnings is slowing, they contin-
ued to hold sway over parts of the
market. Travel booking compa-

Waymo rolls out autonomous Snap 3Q loss more than

vans without human drivers
By Tom Krisher
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
DETROIT A self-driving car company
created by Google is pulling the human back-
up driver from behind the steering wheel and
will test vehicles on public roads with only
an employee in the back seat.
The move by Waymo started Oct. 19 with
an automated Chrysler Pacifica minivan in
the Phoenix suburb of Chandler, Arizona. Its
a major step toward vehicles driving them-
selves without human backups on public
roads. The company also said it would launch
a ride service to compete with Uber and Lyft.
Waymo, which is owned by Googles par-
ent company Alphabet, is in a race with other
companies including Delphi, General
Motors, Intel, Uber, Apple and Lyft to bring
autonomous vehicles to the public. The com-
panies say the robot cars are safer than
human drivers because they dont get drowsy,
distracted or drunk.
Google has long stated its intent to skip
driver-assist systems and go directly to fully
autonomous driving. The Waymo employee
in the back seat wont be able to steer the
minivan, but like all passengers, will be able
to press a button to bring the van safely to a
stop if necessary, Waymo said.
Within a few months, the fully
autonomous vans will begin carrying volun-
teer passengers who are now taking part in a
Phoenix-area test that includes use of backup
drivers.
The company says the self-driving ride
service will be the first application of the
technology.
We want the experience of traveling with
Waymo to be routine, so you want to use our
driver for your everyday needs, Waymo CEO
John Krafcik said prepared remarks announc-
ing the test Tuesday at a conference in
Portugal.
triples, stock tumbles after-hours
NEW YORK Snapchat is getting a
redesign to make it easier to use. But the
new look will not make the latest earnings
report from its parent company any prettier
for investors.
Shares in Snap Inc. were down more than
16 percent in after-hours trading Tuesday
after the company posted yet another quar-
ter of disappointing growth.
Snap Inc. on Tuesday reported a loss of
$443.2 million in its third quarter, more
than triple its loss a year earlier. The larger
loss came with lackluster Snapchat user
growth and revenue that was below Wall
Street expectations.
The Venice, California-based company
said it had a loss of 36 cents per share.
Losses, adjusted for stock option expense
and non-recurring costs, were 14 cents per
share, which was in line with the average
estimate of 11 analysts surveyed by Zacks
Investment Research.
Snap posted revenue of $207.9 million in
the period, up from $128.2 million a year
ago.
Snaps stock fell $2.47 to $12.65 in
after-hours trading.

Twitter doubles character limit
to 280 for (nearly) everyone
NEW YORK Twitter says its ending its
iconic 140-character limit and giving
nearly everyone 280 characters.
Users tweeting in Chinese, Japanese and
Korean will still have the original limit.
Thats because writing in those languages
uses fewer characters.
The company says 9 percent of tweets
written in English hit the 140-character
limit. People end up spending more time
editing tweets or dont send them out at all.
Twitter hopes that the expanded limit will
get more people tweeting more, helping its
lackluster user growth. Twitter has been
testing the new limit for weeks and is start-
ing to roll it out Tuesday.
The company has been slowly easing
restrictions to let people cram more charac-
ters into a tweet. It stopped counting polls,
photos, videos and other things toward the
limit. Even before it did so, users found cre-
ative ways to get around the limit. This
includes multi-part tweets and screenshots
of blocks of text.

By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
PALO ALTO In the late 1990s and
through the mid-2000s, the Menlo School
girls water polo team was among the elite
in the Central Coast Section.
From the rst CCS tournament in 1996,
the Knights won six of the rst 12 champi-
onships.
But that last championship came in 2006.
Since then, its been a tough decade, one
that saw the Knights slip from the CCS elite
to the Peninsula Athletic Leagues Ocean
Division.
Well, Menlo is back. The third-seeded
Knights put together three quarters of sub-
lime water polo and then held on in the
fourth to advance to the CCS Division II
championship match after beating second-
seeded Sobrato-Morgan Hill 11-7 in a semi-
nal match at Gunn High School in Palo
Alto Tuesday night.
Menlo will face top-seeded Valley
Christian in the championship match at
Independence High School in San Jose
Saturday at a time to be determined. Valley
Christian needed overtime to get past
fourth-seeded Aragon, 10-8.
We came out and had a great three quar-
ters, said Menlo coach Alana Burgess. In
the fourth quarter, I think we got a little
tired.
After all but dominating the Bulldogs for
three quarters and taking an 8-3 lead into the
nal seven minutes, the Knights looked to
be out of gas. And that aggressive play that
helped them build a ve-goal advantage
going into the fourth? It appeared they were
playing not to lose.
Sobrato, which had been bottled up for
most of the match, scored a pair of quick
goals in the rst two minutes of the nal
period to close to 8-5.
Meg Reinstras goal off an assist from
Sarah Donato gave the Knights a little more
breathing room with just over four minutes
left to play, but the Bulldogs came back with
two more quick strikes and were down just 9-
7 with 3:21 to play.

Gold Glove, while Angels shortstop Andrelton Simmons and
Rays third baseman Evan Longoria each won their third.
Simmons hadnt won since 2014, and Longoria got his first
since 2010.
Boston right fielder Mookie Betts and Braves center field-
er Ender Inciarte each won for the second time.
Five teams had a pair of winners: the Angels,
Diamondbacks, Rockies, Royals and Twins.
Arenado became the first infielder to win five straight Gold
Gloves at the start of his career.
Obviously, five, its a pretty special number, he said. It
means a lot. ... Right now I want to try to win as many as I
can while Im healthy.
Barnhart beat out two big stars in fellow finalists Buster
Posey and Yadier Molina, becoming the first Cincinnati
catcher to win since Hall of Famer Johnny Bench in 1977.
Its as good as it gets for me. Im a defensive guy and I take
a lot of pride in that, Barnhart said.
Molina won eight years in a row in the National League
before Posey was picked last season.
I am taken aback by it, to be honest with you, Barnhart
said. Buster and Yadi are obviously two of the best guys in
baseball.

Youngsters expected to dominate U.S. soccer roster

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CHICAGO Midfielders Weston
McKennie and Tyler Adams, 17-old forward
Josh Sargent, defender Cameron Carter-
Vickers and goalkeeper Jesse Gonzalez could
make their U.S. national team debuts in a
Nov. 14 exhibition at Portugal.
Defender Matt Miazga, midfielder Lynden
Gooch and goalkeepers Ethan Horvath and
Bill Hamid also are part of a young 21-man
roster announced Tuesday by interim coach
Dave Sarachan, who took over when Bruce
Arena quit last month after the U.S. failed to
qualify for next years World Cup. Half the
players are 24 and under.
Christian Pulisic, the Americans star 19-
year-old midfielder, is being given the game
off. After missing the World Cup for the first
time since 1986, the U.S. likely will not play
a competitive match until the summer of
2019 and has more than five years to prepare
for the 2022 World Cup.
Forward Jordan Morris is still recovering
from a right hamstring injury suffered Sept.

problem and winger Paul Arriola is recover-
ing from an unspecified medical procedure.
Players were not picked from the four teams
remaining in Major League Soccers playoffs,
ruling out Toronto forward Jozy Altidore and
midfielder Michael Bradley.
Defender John Brooks returns from a torn
thigh muscle suffered Aug. 12 that caused him
to miss qualifiers in September and October.
The oldest player on the roster is 30-year-old
midfielder Alejandro Bedoya.
McKennie, 19, made his Bundesliga debut
last May with Schalke and has appeared in
seven league and two cup matches this sea-
son.
Sargent agreed in September to sign a pro-
fessional contract with Werder Bremen when
he turns 18 on Feb. 20. He could become the
first player to appear for the Under-17, Under-
20 and national team in the same year.
The 19-year-old Carter-Vickers, a son of
former NBA guard Howard Carter, made his
Tottenham debut last season and appeared in a
pair of FA Cup matches. On loan this season
to second-tier Sheffield United, he has one
goal in eight matches.

Impact on colleges
The bill would also get rid of a tax deduction
that many universities use to entice donors to
buy season tickets, and it would levy a new 20
percent tax on salaries of public university
employees who make more than $1 million
many of whom are football and basketball
coaches.
Many schools require donors to give thou-
sands of dollars to a booster fund in exchange
for the right to purchase tickets. Eighty per-
cent of the amount donated is tax-deductible,
and the schools tout the tax benefits as an
enticement to give.
Getting rid of the deduction will harm athlet-
ic departments that use the contributions to
fund sports that dont generate revenue, said
Liz Clark, director of federal affairs at the
National Association of College and
University Business Officers.
We do know that for some athletic pro-
grams, that this can be a critical source of rev-
enue, Clark said. Eliminating this deduction
will hurt the revenue stream and will make it
harder for those programs to meet expenses.
Duke University, for example, requires dona-
tions of at least $4,000 per seat for the right to
buy coveted mens basketball season tickets at
Cameron Indoor Stadium. Michael Schoenfeld,
vice president of public affairs and government
relations at Duke, said getting rid of the deduc-
tion was tantamount to a tax on education and
a tax on opportunity for all students, which is
not in anyones interest.
The tax on salaries above $1 million would
also drive up costs for universities, although
they could save money by keeping coaches
salaries below that threshold. Some universi-
ties already keep base salaries low by pairing it
with compensation from other sources like pri-
vate athletic donations and sponsor payments.

ting goals and a vision for the city with his fellow coun-
cilmembers is high on Medinas list of priorities.
One of the main goals were going to need to address is
communication, response and being collaborative and coop-
erative, he said.
Outgoing Mayor Jim Ruane, who led the city during the
2010 gas pipeline explosion and fire as well as the yearslong
aftermath, announced his retirement in August after more
than two decades as an elected official and eight years as
mayor. Resident Annette Zink generated 12.7 percent sup-
port in her quest for the position.
Filling Medinas position on the council and another void
left by Councilman Ken Ibarras retirement are Laura Davis,
who garnered 41.5 percent support from voters, and Michael
Salazar, who garnered 35.7 percent support. Davis and
Salazar will join Councilman Marty Medina and
Councilwoman Irene OConnell, both of whom were elected
to the City Council in 2015. Marco Durazo, a member of the
citys Traffic, Parking and Safety Committee, fell short of the
votes necessary to claim a seat on the council, obtaining
22.8 percent of the vote.
Having served on the City Council for six years beginning
in 2009, Salazar said he is looking forward to work once
again with Rico Medina as well as finding San Brunos next
top city executive now that outgoing City Manager Connie
Jackson announced her retirement in October. Salazar said
spending the last two years serving on the citys Parks and
Recreation Commission after he lost his council seat in
2015 has given him fresh perspective and made him realize
there was a lot more he wanted to do on the council.
Salazar said one concern that emerged time and again on
his campaign were concerns about how new developments
would affect parking downtown and the citys neighbor-
hoods.
Theres definitely huge, huge opportunities for change,
he said. We just really want to keep a really close eye on
what we start building.
New to the council but with 12 years of experience on the
citys Parks and Recreation Commission and as a parent vol-
unteer at Capuchino High School, Davis is hoping city offi-
cials redouble their efforts to solicit input from residents as
they consider the many changes set to take place in the city
as initiatives like Measure N, which voters approved in 2014
to boost allowable building heights downtown and near The
Shops at Tanforan, start to take shape.
We have a lot of good people in our community, she said.
We have a lot of talented people and Id like to see more
input from the community.
From her experience working with the city and residents on
projects benefiting the community, Davis is hoping city
officials continue to reach out to the community and employ-
ers through efforts like study sessions to better understand
what projects make the most sense for the city and how they
will be funded.
For Rico Medina, a lifelong San Bruno resident and student
body president of his graduating class at Capuchino High
School, the focus of his campaign efforts and gratitude on
election night have been directed toward the same group: the
San Bruno community.
Theres a spirit and a pride in this community, he said.

Councilwoman Donna Colson, who

designs for the Recreation Center aim
to redo the existing facility, while
also tacking on about an additional
1,000 square feet and another floor.
Beyond offering modern amenities,
the redesigned center would also offer
additional parking which advocates
believe is badly needed to address res-
idential concerns over the existing
lack of available spaces.
The taxs approval follows similar
initiatives in local cities such as
Belmont, San Mateo and South San
Francisco.
For his part, Brownrigg said plans
around the center will be just one of
the priorities he expects to address in
his next term, along with affordable
housing and other amenity improve-
ments such as building new parks
downtown and along the Bayshore.

Keighran shared a similar perspec-

With her re-election, Keighran
extends her stay on the City Council
which started in 2005, establishing
her as the longest tenured elected
official. Brownriggs re-election
continues his term which began in
2009. This year, he is serving as the
vice mayor, and is slated to take the
mayors seat next under the normal
City Council rotation. Ortiz, who is
the current mayor, will begin his sec-
ond term following his election in
2013.
Winners in this election will serve
five-year terms, under an effort to get
the Burlingame City Council onto an

likely with additional funds,
Keighran said she is ready to get back

ELECTION
Continued from page 1
to the Elections Office.
Chelsea Bonini, who gave up her seat on
the San Mateo-Foster City Elementary
School District Board of Trustees to run for
City Council, came in fourth place with
3,755 voters or 16.6 percent, according to
the Elections Office. Planning
Commissioner Charlie Drechsler came in
fifth place with 1,999 votes or 8.8 percent,
Robert Newsom was next in line with 1,759
votes or 7.8 percent, and Mark De Paula
came in last with 915 votes or 4 percent,
according to the Elections Office.
While voters returned Goethals and
Bonilla to their seats, Rodriguezs cam-
paign elevated him from commissioner to
councilman. Rodriguez will replace current
Mayor David Lim, who opted not to seek re-
election to the council. All three will serve
for the next five years, after voters
approved a charter amendment to extend
council terms by a year to comply with a
new state law requiring even-year elections.
Rodriguez, who has a business degree and
runs an online education company in down-
town San Mateo, thanked his supporters on
election night as he looked toward the next
five years. Housing and traffic remain the
top issues, and he emphasized the need to
strike a balance as the city plans for the
future. Collaborating with people from var-
ious backgrounds to address these pertinent
issues will be key as the city strives to pre-
serve the quality of life residents have come
to enjoy, Rodriguez said.
I have a lot of things I want to accom-
plish. Our city is facing a number of
issues right now and it really requires taking
a balanced approach, you cant just look at
the issues from one lens Rodriguez said.
Were a diverse city and we have a lot of dif-
ferent interests and not everybody has the
same priorities. But weve got to look at
everything and try to make the best deci-
sion we can as a city to move forward.
Goethals said he looks forward to work-
ing to improve the community on a range of
issues for people of all backgrounds. Hes
focused on transit-oriented growth with
housing for people of various income
brackets, easing traffic congestion by pro-
moting alternate modes of transportation
and enhancing recreation. He also stressed a
need to focus on those from diverse back-
grounds, particularly renters and those who
may have a hard time affording the regions
skyrocketing cost of living.
I think its important that we address
quality of life issues that residents are pas-
sionate about, Goethals said. Its impor-
tant that as we look to the future, were
building a community that is welcoming to
teachers and firefighters and police officers
and nurses and people from all backgrounds.
Thats what San Mateo always was and
always should be.
Bonilla said a top priority for him will be
to engage and educate a wider cross-section Goethals raised $56, 231 while the

THE DAILY JOURNAL
Democrats sweep Virginia, New Jersey governors races
By Alan Suderman
and Michael Catalini
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
RICHMOND, Va. Voters in Virginia
and New Jersey gave Democratic guberna-
torial candidates large victories Tuesday
and sent a clear message of rebuke to
Republican President Donald Trump.
In Virginias hard-fought contest,
Democratic Lt. Gov. Ralph Northam defeat-
ed Republican Ed Gillespie. In New Jersey,
front-running Democrat Phil Murphy
trounced Republican Lt. Gov. Kim
Guadagno to succeed unpopular GOP Gov.
Chris Christie.
The victors said Tuesdays electoral
results had far-reaching repercussions in a
sharply divided country.
Virginia has told us to end the divisive-
ness, that we do not condone hatred and
bigotry, Northam said.
The days of division are over. We will
move forward, Murphy said in his own
victory speech, invoking Trump by name
as he looked headed to a double digit win.
Murphy, who earned a fortune at Goldman
NATION
Sachs before serving as
Barack Obamas ambas-
sador to Germany, deliv-
ered his address in the
same spot as Christie in
his 2013 re-election
after Christie won big
over his Democratic
rival.
Ralph Northam The wins in both
states are a morale boost
to Democrats who had so far been unable to
channel anti-Trump energy into success at
the ballot box in a major election this year.
The people are gonna rise up. Theyre
not gonna take what he says and this is not
fake news, said Leanna Barnes, a 76-year-
old from East Orange, New Jersey, who
voted for Murphy and called his victory a
message to the president.
Virginia college student Tamia Mallory
said she began paying attention to her
states gubernatorial race when she saw
tweets from Trump endorsing Gillespie.
That motivated her to examine the race and
find out who was running against
Gillespie, she said.
It was kind of an anti-
Trump vote, Mallory
said.
Northam, the states
lieutenant governor,
repeatedly sought during
long months of divisive
campaigning to tie
Gillespie to the presi-
Phil Murphy dent. His victory was in
large part due to the
surge in anti-Trump sentiment since the
president took office. Democrats said they
had record levels of enthusiasm heading
into the race in Virginia, a swing-state and
the only Southern state Trump lost last
year.
Gillespie, meanwhile, sought to keep
Trump at a distance throughout the cam-
paign but tried to rally the presidents sup-
porters with hard-edge attack ads focused
on illegal immigration and preserving
Confederate statues. The strategy was criti-
cized by Democrats and some Republicans
as race baiting, but drew praise from former
Trump strategist Steve Bannon and others
as a canny approach in a state that voted for
Wednesday Nov. 8, 2017 27
Hillary Clinton last year.
Trump lent limited pre-election support
to Gillespie with robocalls and tweets.
In one call, Trump said Gillespie shared
his views on immigration and crime and
would help Make America Great Again.
Trump also said Northam would be a total
disaster for Virginia.
But after Tuesdays loss, Trump suggested
that Gillespie hurt himself by not more
closely aligning himself with the presi-
dent.
Ed Gillespie worked hard but did not
embrace me or what I stand for, Trump said
in a tweet after Northam won. He also
pointed out that Republicans have won
every special election to the U.S. House
since he was elected.
Northams victory is a blow to
Republicans, who were hoping that
Gillespie could provide a possible roadmap
for moderate Republicans to follow in next
years midterm elections. Several
Republicans have announced plans to retire
next year instead of seeking re-election,
and Gillespie loss may prompt more such
announcements.
