Trump administration
supports suit over Berkeley speakers
SAN FRANCISCO — The Trump administration on
Thursday threw its support behind a lawsuit against the
University of California, Berkeley that accuses the school
of a double standard for campus speakers that restricts con-
servative viewpoints.
The allegations raised by the Berkeley College
Republicans and Young America’s Foundation would violate
the First Amendment if proven true, the U.S. Department of
Justice said in a court filing.
The DOJ said a federal judge should reject a request by UC
Berkeley to dismiss the lawsuit.
The university said in a statement it does not discriminate
against speakers, and the allegations in the suit are
unfounded.
“The campus is committed to ensuring that student groups
may hold events with speakers of their choosing, and it has
expended significant resources to allow events to go for-
ward without compromising the safety or security of the
campus,” the statement said.

Downtown Belmont plan begins to take shape
Councilmembers weigh recommendations on economic feasibility
By Zachary Clark
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Following the adoption of the
Belmont Village Specific Plan in
November 2017 to create a mixed-use
downtown, councilmembers Tuesday
discussed a variety of possible next
steps to implement it, including
potential retailers, residences and
streetscape improvements.
The study session discussion was
guided by data and recommendations
outlined in the Belmont Village
Specific Plan Market Feasibility
Review, which the city commissioned,
in part, to analyze the economic
opportunities.
Authored by the HdL Company, the
review summarizes Belmont’s most
pressing retail needs in a Consumer
Demand & Market Supply Index,
which suggests Belmont is not meet-
ing the demand of its residents in most
retail categories. According to the
index, businesses with the largest
opportunity for growth in Belmont
include clothing, shoe, furniture,
beer/wine/liquor and department
stores.
HdL Managing Director Barry
Foster, who presented his company’s
review to the council Tuesday, applaud-
ed the plan’s consideration for various
modes of transportation, including
proximity to Caltrans, pedestrian
linkages and bike lanes, but stressed
the downtown should remain car-
friendly.
“Probably the most important thing
in the short term is having it be easy
to get there and have plenty of public
parking,” he said. Foster recommended
as much curb parking as possible as
well as a large centralized garage.
In keeping downtown streets vehicle
accessible, Foster also recommended
wide streets, an extension of Fifth
Avenue and the addition of full signals
to the intersection of Fifth and
Ralston avenues.
The full-signal recommendation
triggered concerns about traffic con-
gestion from the council.
“When I think of that, it’s hard for
me to visualize a scenario where
Ralston does not become a horrible,
horrible thing eventually, ” said
Councilman Warren Lieberman. “It
only occurs to me that a signal there
will make it worse.”
Vice Mayor Davina Hurt echoed
Lieberman’s concerns, and expressed a
desire to further study the effects of
restricting car access on Fifth Avenue.
“As we all know, it’s very limited
space down there,” she said.
The review presentation also provid-
ed an overview of the residential com-
ponent of the downtown plan, which
includes townhouses, high-density
multi-family units and single-family
housing to transition into existing
neighborhoods. Residential opportu-
nities were always part of the village
plan, which Foster affirms will play a
crucial role in attracting businesses
and creating a lively, 18-hour down-
town with a daytime population and
nightlife.
According to the city’s buildout
analysis, the total number of housing
units provided in the plan area could
hit 890 by 2035. The plan also
accounts for an increase of 1, 000
downtown jobs to hit 2,450 by 2035.
“From an economic perspective
what you’re saying is our village plan
should work,” Lieberman said, summa-
rizing the presentation. “And from a
design perspective, we’re moving in
the right direction.”

Police: Visa applications may have been wrongly denied

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO — The police chief
in Oakland on Thursday encouraged
immigrants who were victims of a crime
to reapply for a temporary visa certifica-
tion, saying city officials may have
wrongly denied as many as 25 of the
applications after misinterpreting a
state law.
The Alameda County Public
Defender’s Office first raised the issue
last week regarding two cases involving
such visas, Chief Anne Kirkpatrick said.
A so-called U-Visa allows immigrants
who are victims or witnesses of crimes
such as murder, domestic violence, tor-
ture, kidnapping and armed robbery to
stay in the country to help with the
investigation or prosecution of the
case. Applicants must be certified by a
law enforcement agency before the fed-
eral government gives final approval.
“We want our undocumented immi-
grants who have been the victim of
crime to get these U-Visas,” Kirkpatrick
said.
Oakland denied the certifications
because officials believed applicants
could be disqualified if they had criminal
convictions or were suspects in a crime,
Deputy Police Chief Oliver
Cunningham said.

Neighbors watch as rescue workers scour through cars after a mudslide in Montecito.
Emotional residents return
to California mudslide area
By Krysta Fauria
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
MONTECITO — Taking stock of
their lives and remembering those who
were lost, emotional residents on
Thursday trickled back to the
California coastal town that was devas-
tated two weeks ago by mudslides that
killed at least 21 people and destroyed
more than a hundred homes.
Santa Barbara County officials final-
ly lifted evacuation orders this week for
about 1,600 people in the hillside
enclave of Montecito, while thousands
of others still waited for word that it
was safe to return.
Sheriff’s deputies drove vans full of
evacuees back to their homes. The
owners of those that were heavily dam-
aged or destroyed were allowed to
briefly search the rubble for precious
belongings.
Curtis Skene fought back tears as
firefighters uncovered old photographs
of his father in the ruins of his home.
“You have to be grateful you’re OK,”
Skene said. “It’s just stuff.”
Eric and Pamela Arneson found their
home still standing. While he dug
through their refrigerator, throwing
away spoiled food and chuckling at
how bad it smelled, she took notes on
each item to submit to their insurance
company.
The couple initially remained in their
home after the mudslides but later
stayed with friends and in a hotel when
their electricity was shut off a few days
later.
“We can’t feel sorry for ourselves.
Our lives are OK. Our house is OK,” Eric
Arneson said.
The couple bought their home in
1972 and had attended church with
John McManigal, who died in the mud-
slides.
“He was the rock of our church,”
Pamela Arneson said.
Authorities warned that the returns
would be gradual and many people
would have to stay out until at least the
end of the month.
The town’s narrow streets were
clogged with bulldozers and utility
trucks as crews remove mud and boul-
ders and rebuild drainage pipes and
power lines. Utility workers are also
busy restoring water and sewage pipes,
gas service and electricity.

Montecito was hit by debris-laden
flash floods on Jan. 9 when downpours
from a storm hit mountain slopes
burned bare by a huge wildfire.
Hundreds of homes were damaged. A 17-
year-old boy and 2-year-old girl remain
missing.
The majority of residents and busi-
nesses in and around the town of about
9,000 people have yet to receive an
all-clear advisory.
On Thursday attorneys announced a
class-action lawsuit they have filed on
behalf of a group of Montecito resi-
dents and business owners. They are
suing the utility Southern California
Edison, saying it had a role in starting
the fire that led to the subsequent dis-
placement and devastation. It comes
after a similar lawsuit filed last week
that names Edison and a Montecito
local utility.
Officials have not given a cause of
the fire, and Edison says it’s premature
to speculate on the litigation before
the investigation is completed.

Senate extends leave
for lawmaker accused
of sexual misconduct
By Jonathan J. Cooper
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SACRAMENTO — A California lawmaker who took a paid
leave of absence until the end of the month won’t be
allowed to return while investigators
look into allegations that he acted inap-
propriately toward young women work-
ing in his office.
Democratic Sen. Tony Mendoza of
Artesia had planned to return to work
next week despite the ongoing investi-
gation. He’s refused demands by many of
his colleagues to stay away from the
Capitol during the probe.
Tony Mendoza A Senate panel on Thursday extended
his suspension for 60 more days or until the investigation
concludes. The committee also restricted his access to the
Capitol and legislative resources.
Mendoza is accused of behaving inappropriately toward
three young women who worked for him, including by
inviting one to his home and offering another alcohol
when she was underage. Sexual misconduct at the Capitol
broke open last fall when women who work there signed an
open letter saying it is pervasive. Two Assembly lawmak-
ers resigned.
Mendoza, though, has denied wrongdoing. He sent a let-
ter to senators Thursday saying the investigation process is
arbitrary and opaque.
“Remember, what is happening to me could happen to
you,” he wrote.
In a statement, he said the Senate has treated him unfairly
but did not indicate whether he will abide by the extended
leave.
The Rules Committee’s 5-0 vote to extend Mendoza’s
leave was enabled by a rule change adopted following a
tense debate moments earlier in the full Senate.
Republican Sen. Joel Anderson of Alpine said the allega-
tions against Mendoza are serious but the full Senate, not
the committee, should have voted on suspension.
Other Republicans warned that changing the rules could
allow the Rules panel to arbitrarily extend leaves of
absence taken by other lawmakers in the future.
One of his former staff members filed a formal complaint
with the state alleging she was fired for reporting his
behavior, the Sacramento Bee reported Tuesday.
Under intense pressure from his fellow Democrats, he
agreed in early January to take leave for the rest of the
month but was later spotted at the Capitol and events in his
Los Angeles-area district.

Juan now facing charges of
Pablo Lopez mortgage fraud, con-

filing of false election information and
fraudulent voting, for a total of six counts,
according to prosecutors.
Lopez allegedly listed his residence as
being in Redwood City but was allegedly
living in Newark when he filed to run for
sheriff in 2014. He is also being accused
of misrepresenting his address on a real
estate loan, according to prosecutors.
Lopez was previously accused of
allegedly helping to smuggle cellphones
and prescription drugs into county jail in
2015, but that case against him was dis-
missed after a judge ruled evidence that
could have showed he did not commit the
crime should have been presented to a

prosecutors.

prosecutors disagreed with Thursday’s rul-

misconstrued the law. But Maria Belyi, co-
counsel of Lopez’s defense attorney Tony
Serra, was pleased the judge agreed there
was not sufficient evidence to support the
three counts. She said both cases came out
of an effort on law enforcement establish-
ment to retaliate against their client after
the 2014 election.
“Generally speaking, this case really
seems to be a vindictive and retaliatory
case,” she said.
A May 14 jury trial date was set for
Lopez Thursday. He will next appear in
court March 27 for pre-trial conference,
according to prosecutors.

Trump in Davos: Threatens
Palestinians, reassures Brits
By Catherine Lucey
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
DAVOS, Switzerland — President Donald
Trump barreled into a global summit in the
Swiss Alps on Thursday, threatening to
stop U.S. aid to the Palestinians and dis-
missing as a “false rumor” the idea that
there are tensions in the U.S. relationship
with Britain.
Trump’s debut appearance at the glitzy
World Economic Forum was hotly anticipat-
ed, with longtime attendees of the free-
trade-focused event wondering how the
“America First” president would fit in.
Crowds clustered around Trump as he entered
the modern conference hall, the president
telling passers-by that he was bringing a
message of “peace and prosperity.”
Trump framed his visit as a sign of posi-
tive things happening for the U.S. econo-
my.
“When I decided to come to Davos, I did-
n’t think in terms of elitist or globalist, I
thought in terms of lots of people that want
to invest lots of money and they’re all com-
ing back to the United States, they’re com-
ing back to America,” the president told
CNBC.
His meeting with Israeli Prime Minister
Benjamin Netanyahu, a close ally, was their
first since the president announced earlier
this month that he would recognize
Jerusalem as Israel’s capital and move the
U. S. embassy there. The declaration
delighted Netanyahu and outraged
Palestinians, who declared a new U.S.-led
peace push dead and refused to meet with
Vice President Mike Pence during his recent
visit to the Mideast.

NATION/WORLD
Donald Trump shakes hands with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu during the World
Economic Forum annual meeting in Davos, Switzerland.
Trump took that as an affront.
“They disrespected us a week ago by not
allowing our great vice president to see
them and we give them hundred of millions
of dollars in aid and support,” Trump said.
“That money is not going to them unless
they sit down and negotiate peace.”
Netanyahu was effusive in his praise for
Trump, saying the president’s recent
announcement on Jerusalem was a “historic
decision that will be forever etched in the
hearts of our people.” The Palestinians, in
an evening with

turn, said Trump’s “language of dictation is
unacceptable,” in the words of spokesman
Nabil Abu Rdeneh.
Past American presidents have expressed
irritation with the Palestinian leadership
but no previous administration has threat-
ened to cut off assistance to the Palestinians
unless they agreed to negotiate with Israel.
Washington has contributed over $5 bil-
lion in economic and security aid to the
Palestinians since the mid-1990s. Annual
economic aid since 2008 has averaged
Friday • Jan. 26, 2018 7
around $400 million, much of it devoted to
development projects. State Department
spokeswoman Heather Nauert said all bilat-
eral assistance to the Palestinians, includ-
ing economic security aid, is at risk if the
Palestinians don’t come to the negotiating
table.
Trump, who has called an agreement to
end the Israeli-Palestinian conflict the
“ultimate deal,” said Thursday that he had
taken Jerusalem— one of the thorniest
issues — “off the table,” although U.S. offi-
cials have stressed repeatedly that the deci-
sion has no impact on negotiations over
the borders or sovereignty of the holy city.
Trump told Netanyahu that Israel had “won”
on the matter but would have to make con-
cessions to the Palestinians in any eventu-
al talks.
Trump met separately with British Prime
Minister Theresa May, batting away the
idea that their relationship is strained after
he canceled a recent visit to London and
May criticized him for retweeting a U.K. far-
right group’s anti-Muslim videos.
Trump declared it a “really great relation-
ship.” May described it as a “really special
relationship.”
But their meeting was more muted than
Trump’s session with Netanyahu and they
did not respond to shouted questions about
the videos.
After the meeting, May’s office said the
two leaders “concluded by asking officials
to work together on finalizing the details of
a visit by the President to the UK later this
year.” White House officials said the visit
would be a “working visit,” featuring less
pomp than a full state visit. They said plans
for an official state visit would come later.

Trump ‘looking forward’ to being questioned under oath

By Eric Tucker and Chad Day
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — President
Donald Trump declared he’s “look-
ing forward” to being questioned —
under oath — in the special coun-
sel’s probe of Russian election
interference and Trump’s possible
obstruction in the firing of the FBI
director.
Trump said he would be willing to
answer questions under oath in the
interview, which special counsel
Robert Mueller has been seeking
but which White House officials had
not previously confirmed the presi-
dent would grant.
“I’m looking forward to it, actu-
ally,” Trump said late Wednesday
when asked by reporters at the
White House. As for timing, he
said, “I guess they’re talking about
two or three weeks, but I’d love to
do it.”
He said, as he has repeatedly, that
“there’s no collusion whatsoever”
with the Russians, and he added,
“There’s no obstruction whatsoev-
er.”
The full scope of Mueller’s inves-
tigation, which involves more than
a million pages of documents and
dozens of witness interviews, is
unknown. And there have been no
signs that agents aren’t continuing
to work on ties between Trump’s
campaign and a Russian effort to tip
the 2016 election.
But now that Mueller’s team has
all but concluded its interviews
with current and former Trump offi-
cials, and expressed interest in
speaking with the president him-
self, the focus seems to be on the
post-inauguration White House.
That includes the firing of FBI

Special Counsel Robert Mueller, right, departs after briefing members of the U.S. Senate on his investigation into

Report: Trump wanted Mueller fired, backed off
By Tom Lobianco
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — President
Donald Trump ordered the firing
of special counsel Robert Mueller
last June, but he backed off the
order after White House lawyer
Don McGahn threatened to
resign, according to a report
Thursday in The New York Times.

ironed out. But soon it will proba- his actions don’t add up to obstruc-
tion of justice. And that conversa-
tion will be dominated by questions
tied to whether he took steps to
thwart an FBI investigation.
Asked if he thinks Mueller will be
fair, Trump replied: “We’re going to
find out.” He then reiterated that
there is “no collusion.”
In a potential signal of his
defense, Trump suggested that he
didn’t obstruct — he simply fought
back against a false accusation.
So far, witness interviews and the
special counsel’s document requests
make clear Mueller has a keen inter-
est in Comey’s May 9 firing and the
contents of Comey’s private con-
versations with the president, as
well as the ouster months earlier of
Flynn and the weeks of conversa-
tions leading up to it.
On Thursday, a Trump attorney,
John Dowd, released a document
confirming the White House had
provided thousands of pages of doc-
uments related to Comey and
“issues regarding Michael Flynn
and Russia.” Those documents were
among more than 20,000 pages of
materials the White House has pro-
vided to Mueller as part of what
Dowd’s document called “unprece-
dented” cooperation and trans-
parency. Among some of the docu-
ments, Dowd noted, is material the
White House considers to be cov-
ered by some kind of privilege.
So far, more than 20 White House
officials have given voluntary
interviews to Mueller. That includes
eight employees in the White
House counsel’s office. In addition,
the document notes, about 30 peo-
ple affiliated with the president’s
campaign have given interviews to
Mueller or congressional commit-
tees probing Russian election
interference.

Brown’s budget legacy and the future
Santa Cruz Sentinel
I
t’s the final year, we think, of
Gov. Jerry Brown’s 16 as
California’s chief executive.
And, in this second lease on politi-
cal life that concludes next January,
Brown will apparently leave the state
in decent financial shape.
It’s a far cry from when he took
office for his third term in 2011, when
the recession still was in full-misery
overdrive and California was trying to
make up a $27 billion shortfall.
But Brown, the sequel, became the
penny-pinching governor the state
needed. His reluctance, with some
unfortunate exceptions, to hold down
spending and sock money away for
the next downturn, has served
California well — aided and abetted
by a roaring economic expansion,
and voter-approved tax hikes.
The result? An expected general fund
budget surplus of $6.1 billion for the
next fiscal year starting in July.
So open the floodgates, and let the
spending begin, right?
Not according to Brown’s latest
budget proposal released earlier this
month — his last as governor and one
that will be inherited by his succes-
sor.
The $132 billion general fund plan
(Brown’s first-ever budget, unveiled
for the 1975-76 fiscal year was a bit
more modest — $11.5 billion) calls
for only modest spending increases

And there’s other storm clouds.
Although the governor relented on
education funding and now agrees that
school districts should disclose how
they spend money intended to help
the neediest students, the reality is
that dozens of state school systems
with dismal test scores and major aca-
demic achievement gaps won’t get
any extra funding help this year, due
to a new rating system.

lions of dollars during his watch.
Then there’s the governor’s pet
project, high speed rail. The first
phase of the state’s high-speed rail
project is now estimated to cost $2.8
billion more than previously
thought.
This recent hike in estimated costs
for the 119-mile Central Valley por-
tion of the project is not the first
revision. The project was originally
expected to cost $6 billion — but the
California High Speed Rail Authority
revised its estimate to $7.8 billion in
2016. The segment now is expected
to cost $10.6 billion, a 35 percent
increase over the previous estimate.
This latest revision could result in
the authority asking the state for
more money — and this is just the
first segment. And just the latest
issue. The state auditor needs to take
another look at the project to see if
it’s being properly planned and funded
— which could lead to Brown’s suc-
cessor having to pull the plug.
So while we applaud the governor
for delivering a fiscally responsible
budget as a final testament to his long
stewardship of the state, the good for-
tunes Brown has enjoyed may not
carry over to the next governor. After
eight years of penny pinching,
Democrats are going to want to open
up the spending tap again. Inevitably,
another economic downturn will come
calling, along with political head-
winds that will be hard to resist in
what has become a one-party state.

transportation crisis. I need Caltrain
to ride my bike to work. I’m in great
shape, but it takes too long to ride to
work. So I ride Caltrain part of the

Caltrain, to get between the station,
home and work.
Getting more folks to cycle is a
critical part of the transportation
solution. Caltrain has been a leader in
working with cyclists, especially
with getting us on board trains. But
it’s costly to retrofit us onto cars
designed without us in mind.
Electrification is a chance to design
cars for cyclists from the get go and
for Caltrain to lead the nation in the
next 30 years. The current design that
places me in a different car from my
bicycle is a recipe for my bike to be

A notable addition to
Time magazine cover
I
f you look closely in the top right corner of the Jan.
29 edition of Time magazine, you will see a photo of
Noelia Corzo, who was recently elected to the San
Mateo-Foster City Elementary School District Board of
Trustees.
The story is a long-form piece on the record number of
women now running for political office for the first time.
That includes Corzo, though she started getting active
before the recent wave and having a female first-time can-
didate running for one of three open seats on the San
Mateo-Foster City school board is certainly not a unique
situation. In fact, the other two new board members,
Rebecca Hitchcock and Shara Watkins, are also female
first-time candidates. Yet there Corzo is, pictured as part of
a movement, likely because it fit into the story’s narrative
which features a progressive
movement.
Corzo said she first got
active in 2015, beginning
with Faith in Action, a group
that has recently gotten heavi-
ly involved in tenants’ rights.
She also volunteered for
Bernie Sanders’ presidential
campaign and attended her first
Latino Democratic Club meet-
ing that year.
“It felt like something I was
called to do,” she said.
When it came time to run for
one of three open board seats,
she said she waited until about
two weeks before the filing deadline to decide, but then
jumped in with both feet.
Suggesting that renters need protections and working
toward that effort through progressive organizations can
turn some people off since it has been a lightning rod
issue in San Mateo and other communities contending
with the rising cost of living. Yet she said people are
multi-faceted and that one issue doesn’t necessarily define
how one thinks about other issues.
As far as the photo, Corzo said she believes she was
asked for it since she has been involved with an organiza-
tion featured in the story, “Run for Something,” which is
essentially self-explanatory but aimed at liberal millenni-
als. She was endorsed by both it and “Our Revolution,”
which is tied to the Sanders movement, but only after she
decided to run.
As far as being on the cover of a world-famous magazine
as an example of a young woman of color running for
office and achieving her goal, Corzo said she is, “really
really honored.” She said that it shows you can work hard
to, “step up and step up into roles that make a difference
in our communities.”
Now that she is on the board, there has been no short-
age of real-life situations that need her attention. There is
a matter of the district’s budget, the need to address
overenrollment in Foster City through the construction of
a fourth elementary school, and now, filling an empty seat
that board president Nancy Kohn Hsieh decided to resign
to spend more time with her family. One thing Corzo and
her fellow board trustees will not have to deal with is a
teacher contract that was boiling over in recent months as
the prior board agreed to a raise just before the new board
was seated. Still, it’s a lot of work and Corzo said she is in
listening and learning mode. As a mom, she does what
moms do and adapt to the situation. She is now creating
new habits like putting her son to bed on Friday nights
and reading the board packet — which has definitely
affected her social life.
But she has more important things to worry about now.
One thing she takes away from her experience with being
on the cover of Time magazine is that this is a new time

Losses for airlines, tech mostly offset stock gains
By Marley Jay
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — U. S. stocks
spent a second day flipping
between small gains and losses
Thursday as investors again
looked for hints about the Trump
administration’s stance on inter-
national trade and the dollar.
Major indexes ended the day mixed
as airlines plunged while biotech
drugmakers climbed.
Homebuilders fell sharply after
the Commerce Department said
sales of new homes dropped in
December. Airlines suffered a sec-
ond day of sharp losses as
investors worried about rising
costs and the possibility of lower
air fares. Retailers and technology
companies slipped, but health
care companies including Biogen
and Celgene rose.
High-dividend stocks such as
utilities rallied as bond yields
fell, making those stocks more
attractive to investors seeking
income.
The dollar made small recovery
in the afternoon after President
Donald Trump said he wants to see
a stronger U.S. currency. The dol-
lar has fallen to three-year lows,

after Treasury Secretary Steven
Mnuchin said there were advan-

over the last year.
Investors took that to mean the

to prop up the dollar. Mnuchin
said Thursday that he supports a

transportation, infrastructure plan
WASHINGTON — The Trump administra-
tion is preparing to unveil long-promised
plans for roads, bridges and other infrastruc-
ture next month. But the plans will fall short
of some of his ambitious goals.
Trump told mayors this week he will unveil
his plan after next week’s State of the Union
address. He says it could generate as much as
$1.7 billion in infrastructure spending. But
he’s counting on state and local governments
to come up with a significant share of the
total.
The federal government’s commitment
would be about $200 billion over 10 years.
Half the money would be used for grants for
infrastructure projects.
But the grants can’t make up more than 20
percent of project costs. That means state and
local governments would have to come up
with the rest.
U.S. expert panel doubts
benefits of heated tobacco device
SILVER SPRING, Md. — U.S. government
experts have rejected a proposal from Philip
Morris International to sell its “heat-not-
burn” tobacco device as a lower-risk alterna-
tive to cigarettes that reduces disease.
But the panel of advisers to the Food and
Drug Administration endorsed a lesser claim
that the product reduces exposure to harmful
chemicals in cigarettes. The mixed review
suggests Philip Morris will be able to market
its device to U.S. smokers, but on limited
terms.
The FDA is reviewing the closely watched
device, iQOS (EYE-kose), which is already
sold in more than 30 countries. The penlike
device heats sticks of tobacco, but stops
short of burning them.
The panel’s opinion is nonbinding and the
FDA will make a final decision in coming
months on the device and how it could be
marketed.
New ski pass to offer access
to 23 resorts in North America
SALT LAKE CITY — A ski company that
owns resorts from Quebec to Colorado says it
will begin selling a pass next season that
will give skiers and snowboarders access to
23 resorts in North America.
The pass from the newly named Alterra
Mountain Company will rival Vail Resorts’
popular Epic Pass, which offers skiers access
to 15 resorts in three countries.
The dueling multi-resort passes are the lat-
est sign of an industry that is becoming con-

U.S. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin attends the daily briefing at the White House.
Why Mnuchin’s remarks about
U.S. dollar sparked concerns
By Martin Crutsinger
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Treasury Secretary
Steven Mnuchin appears to have learned
a lesson that many of his predecessors
also came to recognize: A Treasury sec-
retary must tread delicately when dis-
cussing the dollar.
When Mnuchin suggested Wednesday
at a global economic forum in Davos,
Switzerland, that a weak dollar would
benefit the United States, the U.S. cur-
rency fell in value and sparked concerns
in global markets. A day later, Mnuchin
tried to soften his comments. So did
President Donald Trump, who stressed
that “ultimately, I want to see a strong
dollar.”
The two-day kerfuffle was a sign of
how sensitive an issue the dollar’s value
can be. Here are some questions and
answers about the dollar and its relation-
ship to the U.S. economy:
Q: What’s been the po l i cy o f
recent admi ni s trati o ns co ncern-
i ng the do l l ar?
A: In 1995, when Robert Rubin
became Treasury secretary in the
Clinton administration, he adopted the
approach of always affirming that a
strong dollar is in the best interests of
the United States. From his years lead-
ing Goldman Sachs, Rubin knew that
currency traders were alert for any varia-
tions in an administration’s views on
the dollar and were ready to dump dollars
at the first sign of diminishing support
for the U.S. currency.
A lower-valued dollar can be worri-
some, in part because it makes U.S.
imports costlier and so can accelerate
inflation, sometimes to worrisome lev-
els.
Rubin’s mantra worked so well that it
was adopted, usually word for word, by
the six Treasury secretaries who fol-
lowed him, in both Democratic and
Republican administrations.
When Mnuchin deviated to suggest
that there were advantages for the United
States in having a weaker dollar, the
market reaction was swift. The currency
fell to a three-year low against the euro
and sank against the Japanese yen.
On Thursday, Mnuchin sought to clar-
ify his view. He said that in the short
term, there were “obviously benefits”
from a weaker dollar. These include mak-
ing U.S. goods less expensive for for-
eign buyers and thereby benefiting U.S.
companies and reducing America’s trade
deficit. But Mnuchin added, “In the long
term, I fundamentally believe in the
strength of the dollar.”
Q: Is i t i nco ns i s tent to s ay y o u
prefer a weak do l l ar o n a s ho rt-
term bas i s and a s tro ng do l l ar o n
a l o ng -term bas i s ?
A: Yes, but Mnuchin appeared to be
trying to have it both ways. The U.S.
economy was hurt in 2016 when a rising
dollar and a weak global economy cut
into American exports, causing an
already high U.S. trade deficit to rise fur-
ther.
Q: What are the benefi ts o f a
weak do l l ar?
A: A weak dollar means a shirt made
in China and sold at Walmart will be
more expensive for American con-
sumers. In that way, it gives a competi-
tive advantage to American shirt mak-
ers. In addition, a weak dollar makes an
American good exported and sold over-
seas more affordable for foreigners.
Q: What abo ut the drawbacks o f
a weak do l l ar?
A: By making foreign goods more
expensive in the United States, it raises
the risk of high inflation. It raises, for
example, the cost of foreign-made prod-
ucts, like auto parts, that U.S. manufac-

turers need to produce goods. U.S.
automakers depend heavily on foreign-
made parts.
A falling dollar also makes foreign
investment in dollar-denominated
assets less attractive. So the sale of U.S.
stocks and bonds to foreign investors
can suffer. That can be a serious problem
at a time when the budget deficit is ris-
ing sharply and is expected to once
again approach and exceed $1 trillion
annually in coming years. Of the gov-
ernment’s $20.5 trillion in debt, $5.7
trillion in is government trust funds
such as Social Security. The rest —
$14.8 trillion — is held by investors.
And of the debt held by investors, over
40 percent is held by foreigners, with
the largest amounts in the hands of
China and Japan.
Q: If fo rei g n i nv es to rs s l o wed
thei r i nv es tments i n U. S. s to cks
and bo nds , what co ul d happen?
A: It could cause the booming stock
market to slow its climb or possibly
even retreat if the cutback in stocks was
big enough. For bonds, it could send
U.S. interest rates, which have been low
for a decade, rising. That could dampen
economic growth and add billions to the
cost of financing rising government
deficits.
Q: Is the pro s pect o f a s mal l er
trade defi ci t wo rth al l o f that?
A: Most economists don’t think so.
But they note that Mnuchin’s comments
in support of a weaker dollar came in the
same week that the administration
imposed tariffs on imported solar pan-
els and washing machines — the latest
move in its “America First” trade poli-
cy. Just as the punitive tariffs could trig-
ger retaliation by other countries
against American goods, any effort to
talk down the dollar’s value could lead
other nations to try to lower their cur-
rencies’ values.

Can anything stop the
stock market’s growth?
By Stan Choe and Marley Jay
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — It’s been 365 days since the Dow Jones
industrial average first crossed 20,000, and it’s already up
another 30-plus percent as the stock market’s relentless
rise to records keeps going.
Few market watchers see a sharp reversal for stocks any-
time soon, at least this year. But press them on what could
possibly derail the market’s run, and they usually land on a
similar list of potential threats.
The warnings come couched with caveats: The general
expectation is for stocks to keep rising, albeit at a slower
pace, because the odds seem low for a recession this year.
Economies around the world are finally in sync and growing
together, and the U.S. is getting an extra kick from recent-
ly passed tax cuts. That should keep profits on the upswing
for companies, and stock prices tend to follow the direction
of profits.
But many potential potholes lie ahead. One concern cen-
ters on just how long and strong this bull market has been.
Since they began rising in 2009, stocks have become more
expensive than they’ve historically been, relative to cor-
porate profits. That said, stocks have managed to keep
climbing in the past, even when they’ve been as expensive
and as deep into a bull run as they are now.
Business brief
Atlanta development
proposal just happens to be Amazon-sized
ATLANTA — As Atlanta vies for Amazon’s second head-
quarters, a developer just happens to be proposing a $5 bil-
lion downtown project with 9.3 million square feet (87 mil-
lion square meters) of office space — more than three times
the amount in the Empire State Building.
No one’s saying it’s for Amazon — yet.
Details of the massive proposed development are coming
into view from public records and comments.
An architect working with Los Angeles-based develop-
ment firm CIM Group presented its proposal Thursday to an
Atlanta business group. Christopher Sciarrone never men-
tioned Amazon during the one-hour presentation.
But when asked after the meeting whether the project
would suit Amazon’s criteria for its new headquarters,
Sciarrone said “it would seem to.” He added that he does not
know whether the project is being pitched as a site for
Amazon.
Public documents filed by the group don’t mention
Amazon, but specifications of its proposed project are in
line with the retail giant’s requirements.

Another 400,000 are people who’d

Trump ended the DACA program in
September, setting a March 5 deadline
for Congress to provide legal protec-
tions or the program’s recipients
would once again be subject to depor-
tation. The officials said Trump would
only sign legislation providing those
protections if the other immigration
changes he is proposing are imple-
mented.
Trump earlier this month had deferred
to a bipartisan, bicameral group of
lawmakers to craft an immigration
proposal, saying he would sign what-
ever they passed. But as talks on
Capitol Hill broke down — in part
because of controversy Trump ginned
up using vulgar language to describe
African countries — the White House
decided to offer its own framework.
Senate Majority Leader Mitch
McConnell and others had also com-
plained the president had failed to suf-
ficiently lay out his priorities, leav-
ing them guessing about what he
might be willing to sign. One official
said the Thursday release represents a
plan for the Senate, with the adminis-
tration expecting a different bill to
pass the House.
McConnell thanked the president
and his aides for providing the out-
line. “I am hopeful that as discussions
continue in the Senate on the subject
of immigration, Members on both
sides of the aisle will look to this
framework for guidance as they work
towards an agreement,” he said in a
statement.
Doug Andres, a spokesman for
House Speaker Paul Ryan, echoed the
sentiment saying: “We’re grateful for
the president showing leadership on
this issue and believe his ideas will
help us ultimately reach a balanced
solution.”
Rep. Tom Cotton, R-Ark., an immi-
gration hard-liner, called Trump’s plan
“generous and humane, while also
being responsible” and said he’d work
toward its passage. He said that

But some of Congress’ more conser-
vative members seemed unwilling to
open the citizenship door for the
Dreamers.
“DACA itself didn’t have a pathway
to citizenship,” said Sen. Ted Cruz, R-
Texas, who battled Trump in 2016 for
the GOP presidential nomination. “So
I think it would be a profound mistake
and not consistent with the promises
we made to the voters to enact a path-
way to citizenship to DACA recipients
or to others who are here illegally.”
Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, said he
supports a more conservative, more
sweeping immigration bill proposed
by House members, including House
Judiciary Committee Chairman Bob
Goodlatte, R-Va. , which has won
strong support from House conserva-
tives. Speaker Paul Ryan has promised
to push for support for that measure.
The conservative Breitbart News,
seen as a barometer of Trump’s nation-
alist base, declared it “Don’s Amnesty
Bonanza.”
Democrats were also raging. House
Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi, D-
Calif., blasted the plan as “an act of
staggering cowardice which attempts
to hold the Dreamers hostage to a
hateful anti-immigrant scheme.”
In a statement Thursday night,
Pelosi said the framework was “part of
the Trump Administration’s unmistak-
able campaign to make America white
again.”
Democratic Whip Dick Durbin, D-
Ill., urged Republicans to join togeth-
er with Democrats to reach a biparti-
san alternative.
“Dreamers should not be held
hostage to President Trump’s crusade
to tear families apart and waste bil-
lions of American tax dollars on an
ineffective wall,” he said in a state-
ment.
Rep. Michelle Lujan Grisham, D-
N.M., who chairs the Congressional
Hispanic Caucus, said the White
House was using DACA recipients “as
bargaining chips for sweeping anti-
immigrant policies.”

Dons deal SM first loss
By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Despite dominating the light weights and
building a big lead, the Aragon wrestling
team saw its once formidable advantage
trimmed to just three points after a series of
forfeits at the heavier weights.
But Aragon head coach Carlo Altamirano
had an ace up his sleeve. With the Dons
leading San Mateo 39-36, he sent out
Kristal Betanzo for the 108-pound finale.
Winner takes all.
Altamirano was unconcerned. Betanzo is
ranked fourth in the Central Coast Section
at 101 and has a shot to make the podium at
the girls’ CCS championships next week.
Betanzo got a takedown in the first 14 sec-
onds and turned it into a pin nine seconds
later to clinch Aragon’s 45-36 win over the
Sponsors flee scandal-plagued XFL coming back
USA Gymnastics; future cloudy
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
INDIANAPOLIS — Staring at an uncertain
future after the departure of several spon-
sors, USA Gymnastics faces a steep climb as
it tries to regroup in the wake of the sexual
abuse scandal that has rocked the national
governing body of the sport.
The loss of corporate partners is a finan-
cial blow to the organization, which had
total revenues of $34.4 million and net
assets of just over $3 million in 2016,
according to Internal Revenue Service docu-
ments. USA Gymnastics received nearly $3
million from the USOC last year, a figure
that fluctuates annually between Olympic
cycles.
Adding to the woes are pending legal mat-
ters. Scores of gymnasts who were abused
by former sports doctor Larry Nassar are
suing USA Gymnastics, Nassar and
Michigan State University, where he also
worked.
“USA Gymnastics is facing a crisis, one
that will influence sponsor decision-mak-
ing for years,” said Professor T. Bettina
Cornwell, academic director of Warsaw
Bearcats at Woodside Thursday evening.
“Most of her wins have been by pin,”
Altamirano said of Betanzo’s 21-3 record. “I
wanted to put her last (in the lineup). She
can put on a show.”
The same could be said for the rest of the
Dons, who are the defending Peninsula
Athletic League Ocean Division champs and
became the odds-on favorite to repeat after
beating previously undefeated San Mateo.
But with the Dons giving up 30 points in
forfeiting five matches, Altmirano knew his
team’s margin for error was razor thin. Of
Aragon’s six wins on the mat, five came via
pin, giving the Dons maximum points on
the scoreboard. Anything less and San
Mateo might be sitting in the catbird’s seat
atop the Ocean Division standings.
“It was very crucial to get those (wins by)
pins,” Altamirano said. “There was no doubt

Brands want to associate
with things like rugged-
ness, grace, passion,

Larry Nassar ing hard in the face of
failure. They are fearful
to associate with an organization tied to the
horrific Larry Nassar.”
The 54-year-old Nassar was sentenced
Wednesday to 40 to 175 years in prison,
capping a seven-day hearing in a Michigan
courtroom that featured several of his vic-
tims.
The list of companies that have dropped
sponsorship includes Under Armour, AT&T,
Kellogg, Proctor & Gamble, and Hershey.
A statement from AT&T on Tuesday said
the company was suspending its ties “until
it (USA Gymnastics) is re-built and we know
that the athletes are in a safe environment.”

we needed majors (major decisions) or pins
to cover the gap (caused by our forfeits).”
San Mateo head coach Jason Cervantes
knew how close his team was to pulling off
the victory. If the Bearcats could have
turned around a couple of those losses, they
would still be unbeaten in league.
“I have a lot of first-year wrestlers. I had
to throw somebody out there,” Cervantes
said. “I was hoping they would give a little
more fight.
“They all understood (the importance of
the match). I think maybe that got into
their heads a little bit.”
Ironically, it was Aragon that earned the
first points of the match when San Mateo
had to forfeit the match at 115. The Dons
then won the next five matches, giving up a
total of just two points.

The sexed-up, second-rate football league
formed as the early 2000s brainchild of
WWE ringleader Vince McMahon is set for a
surprising second life in 2020. The league
that spawned “He Hate Me” and placed TV
cameras in the bathroom flamed out in 2001

was reignited when ESPN aired the “This Was

McMahon is back in charge, pumping
$100 million into the XFL through his new

“I’ve always wanted to bring it back,” the
72-year-old McMahon said on Thursday. “I
think the most important thing that we
learned with the older XFL and now the new
XFL is the quality of play. We have two years
now to really get it right.”
McMahon, who will continue as chairman

about the football comeback. The XFL will
launch with eight teams, 40-man active ros-
ters and a 10-week regular-season schedule.

USA Football embraces new contact technique TACKLING

By Barry Wilner
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Part of USA Football’s mission is to make
the game safer and more popular for young-
sters.
With two steps it will unveil Friday, the
governing body for the sport believes it is
doing just that.
USA Football is embracing the U. S.
Olympic Committee’s American
Development Model, which focuses on skill
development by offering multiple entry
points and types of a sport designed to
bring more enjoyment of the game while
also enhancing fitness.
The organization, which serves more than
10,000 school-based and youth programs
through its nationally endorsed coaching
education and playing standards programs,
also is incorporating what it calls the “Tip
of the Spear Contact System” that empha-
sizes smarter use of the hands and arms
when blocking and defeating blocks. The
system can deliver safer play, reduce helmet
contact and advance skill development.
The American Development Model has
worked well in dozens of sports that fall
under the USOC’s umbrella. USA Football
CEO Scott Hallenbeck sees ADM has a natu-
ral progression for the gridiron.
“We took a step back and as a member of
the USOC looked at what other governing
bodies were doing,” Hallenbeck says. “For
instance, with ice hockey, with specifics
for different ages — checking rules, modify-
ing games — it was part of a progression.
“The ‘Tip of the Spear Contact
System’ … emphasizes smarter
use of the hands and arms when
blocking and defeating blocks.
The system can deliver safer
play, reduce helmet contact and
advance skill development.
We have flag football and 11-a-side tackle,
so there was not much of a progression.
We’ve inserted the middle step, which we
call rookie tackle.
“Rookie tackle is a modified game and we
tested it in nine locations around the coun-
try. The idea is to cut the field in half ... play
six- or seven- or eight-man games. Use a
two-point stance, no special teams, kids
play multiple positions, coaches can be on
the field. This will help contribute to the
positive overall experience and be an intro-
duction to tackle football.”
The best analogy might be with baseball,
which has T-ball, then coach pitch, then
player pitch.
The ADM program has five key areas, all
of which can be applied to youth football:
• Universal access to create opportunity
for all athletes. This means no cuts under
age 12.
• Developmentally appropriate activities
that emphasize motor and foundational
skills.
“Shrinking the field and having modified
tackle programs allows young athletes to
grow into the game without having to play
a version of the game they are not ready to
navigate,” says Chris Snyder, the USOC’s
director of coaching development. “This
philosophy fits very well with football, and
allows athletes to opt in at later ages with-
out being put at a major disadvantage.”
• Multi-sport participation. Snyder con-
siders football a big cross-over sport, “so
this emphasis will help athletes become
well-rounded and stay away from over-train-
ing or specialization issues.”
• A fun, engaging and progressively chal-
lenging atmosphere.
• Quality coaching at all age levels.
“USA Football already has a solid training
program with an emphasis on safety first,”
Snyder says.
That’s where the Tip of the Spear system
comes in, too. Available to youth and high
school football programs this year, it is
specific to use of the hands. In 11-on-11
football, for example, tackling is a small
fraction of the contact. The byproduct of
using the hands properly and not the head is
that it’s safer.
Basically, Tip of the Spear teaches young-
sters how to generate more force by using
their hips to drive their hands. From their
initial stance, they are taught an uncoiling
of the hips to generate all the force in any
contact from their hips, taking their head
out of the equation.
“It’s about how to build a culture around
domination with the hands and shoulders,”
Peters says.
Continued from page 13
“We all want kids to have fun playing foot-
ball and to learn to play the game the right way
early on,” Sente said in a statement. “But the
overwhelming data and powerful stories of our
supporters here today show the risks of play-
ing tackle football before turning 12 just aren’t
worth it.”
Wilson said he hasn’t had any CTE symp-
toms but he plans to donate his brain to
research.
“I don’t need it where I’m going so might as
well be able to help the process,” he said.
“There are a lot of individuals that have this
issue and the more research that’s being done,
hopefully we can have something to combat
it.”
CTE is a degenerative disease known to cause
memory loss, violent moods and other cogni-
tive difficulties in football players, members of
the military and others who have endured
repeated head trauma. It can only be diagnosed
after death. Researchers believe the severity of
the symptoms is increased for those who began
playing football at a younger age.
The Illinois bill is similar to a proposal in
New York, and Nowinski said lawmakers in at
least one other state are working to raise the
age at which children begin playing tackle
football. He said studies have shown that start-
ing tackle football before the age of 12 can lead
to great neurological impairment later in life.
“This isn’t about an act to ban tackle foot-
ball,” Nowinski said. “This is about an act to
prevent children from being hit in the head
hundreds of times through sports each season.”

The XFL in 2001 had eight
teams, mostly in major markets,
such as Chicago, Los Angeles and
San Francisco. McMahon said the
selection of cities in the new XFL
will be announced in the next few
months, and a mix of major and
mid-major markets will be consid-
ered.
The XFL postseason will have
two semifinal games and a cham-
pionship game. XFL salaries have
yet to be decided, though players
will be paid more to win. He wants
a 2-hour game and even tossed out
the idea of eliminating halftime.
“We will present a shorter,
faster-paced, family-friendly and
easier to understand game, ”
McMahon said. “It’s still foot-
ball. But it’s professional football
reimagined.”
This could be a gimmick-free
XFL, perhaps without nicknames

McMahon wanted his players to

“As far as our league is con-

“And nothing to do with social
issues, either. We’re there to play
football.”
The XFL and WWE will have no
crossover, unlike the first incarna-
tion when wrestling announcers
and personalities such as former
Minnesota Gov. Jesse Ventura
dominated the football telecast.
McMahon promised a safer foot-
ball league, though he again
offered no specifics for a league
that unveiled a human coin toss
the first time around — players
scrambled from each team to grab
the football to decide possession.
One player separated his shoulder
fighting for the ball.

Rangers top Sharks Tiger solid, if unspectacular, in return

By Josh Dubow
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN JOSE — Ryan McDonagh
scored his first two goals of the sea-
son and Brady Skjei added a short-
handed tally that helped the New
York Rangers salvage the final game
of a four-game road trip by beating
the San Jose Sharks 6-5 on Thursday
night.
New York had been outscored 13-6
in losing the first three games of the
trip before overcoming a deficit in
the second period with a three-goal
barrage from McDonagh and Skjei.
Kevin Hayes, Jesper Fast and J.T.
Miller also scored for the Rangers,
and Ondrej Pavelec made 23 saves to
send New York into the All-Star
break on a high note.
Logan Couture scored twice to
give him 20 goals on the season.
Barclay Goodrow, Marc-Edouard
Vlasic and Tomas Hertl also scored
for San Jose, and Kevin Labanc had
three assists.
Aaron Dell made 23 saves.
The Sharks played without star for-
ward Joe Thornton, who will likely
miss several weeks after undergoing
arthroscopic surgery on his injured
right knee earlier Thursday. This
marked the first time San Jose played
a game without Thornton or Patrick
Marleau — who left for Toronto in
free agency over the summer — since
Jan. 21, 2004, at Arizona.
Rangers 6, Sharks 5
Couture did his
best to overcome
Thornton’s void,

Logan Couture But the
Rangers erased
that deficit with three goals from
their defensemen in a span of just
over six minutes. McDonagh struck
twice in just 1:12 after scoring no
goals in his first 44 games. The first
came when he joined the rush and
took a pass from Kevin Hayes to
score into the open net.
Then after Timo Meier was penal-
ized for tripping, McDonagh beat
Dell with a wrist shot from the point
to make it 4-3.
Skjei added the insurance goal with
the Sharks on the power play when
Labanc cleared a rebound off Skjei’s
leg and into the net.
Vlasic got the Sharks back within
one goal midway through the third,

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN DIEGO — Tiger Woods has
been away from the PGA Tour too
long to know for certain when a
shot is as good as it looks.
This was a 6-iron on the par-3
16th hole on the South Course at
Torrey Pines, from 188 yards to a
slightly elevated green with a pin
tucked behind a deep bunker. The
sun was setting behind the Pacific
late Thursday afternoon, and the
glare made it tough to follow the
flight of the ball.
“We can’t see anything land
from back there, so we’re just lis-
tening for some noise,” Woods
said. “And people started cheer-
ing.”
The ball rolled to the hole and
broke a few inches in front of the
cup for a tap-in birdie.
Woods brought big crowds back
to golf in his latest return to the
PGA Tour, and he even produced a
few big roars.
There just weren’t enough cheers
for his liking.
Playing for the first time since
recovering from a fourth back sur-
gery that cost him another year on
the PGA Tour, Woods was mostly
steady, sometimes spectacular and
ended his day with an even-par 72
that left him seven shots behind

battle. He got an early takedown in the first
ORLANDO RAMIREZ/
USA TODAY SPORTS
Tiger Woods lines up a putt on the
18th hole. He finished the first round
with an even-par 72.
Woods said. “It was fun to be out
there.”
The next trick is to stay at Torrey
Pines beyond Friday. With virtually
no wind making this a day for rea-
sonable scoring, Woods was tied for
84th and will start the second round
on the North Course just outside the
cut line.
Finau birdied his opening two
holes on the North and finished
with a 35-foot birdie putt for a 65.
Woods had a few big moments
that looked familiar to fans who
stood as many as four-deep around
the greens.
His three birdie putts were from a
combined 30 inches. The longest of
his birdie putt was from just inside 2
the first round before pinning his opponent
feet on No. 10 that got him back to
even par for the round. He was one
rotation away from making a long
eagle putt on the par-5 sixth.
He was never under par the entire
round, and his near ace on the 16th
brought him back to even par.
But he needed those three birdies
to offset his mistakes, and the
sobering part of his return is that
Woods didn’t make a putt longer
than 4 feet. That was on the second
hole, when his approach from the
bunker landed 6 feet behind the hole
and went over the back into light
rough.
He also gave away a shot on the
par-5 13th, when he laid up from the
rough and hit a wedge that drifted
right and went into the bunker. He
blasted that out to 3 feet, which was
the hard part. And then he missed
the short par putt .
Woods made his other two
bogeys from greenside bunkers,
both times missing 12-foot putts.
He played the par 5s in even par,
and didn’t give himself any other
birdie chances inside 15 feet.
“It’s hard to make a lot of birdies
when you’re not giving yourself
any looks, and I didn’t do that
today,” Woods said. “Tomorrow,
hopefully, I’ll drive a little better,
get my irons obviously a lot closer
and we get the better of the two
greens tomorrow. So we’ll see what
happens.”

Nick Lee gave the Dons their first win on
the mat, winning by pin at 122. He quickly
throw that he quickly turned into a three-
point near-fall. He finished off his oppo-
nent at the 1:02 mark of the first period.
Mario Siquenza had the quickest win of
the night, needing just 16 seconds to win
his 129-pound match. Barsom Shokri-Niri
struggled through most of his 134-pound
period for a 2-0 lead, but did not score again
until the third.
Shokri-Niri led 2-1 going into the final
round, but got an insurance point with an
escape, which he then turned into a take-
down. He came close to finishing with a
pin, but the final horn sounded before he
could complete the task.
“A sophomore, he’s a very promising
prospect,” Altamirano said of Shokri-Niri.
“It’s been great to see him blossom.”
Altamirano then sent a pair of neophytes
out for the next two matches at 140 and 147.
Carl Kohake (140) and Edwin Rodriguez
(147) were making their PAL dual-meet
debuts and both passed with flying colors.
Kohake built a 4-0 lead after one period with
a takedown and late two-point nearfall. He
quickly gained control moments into the
second period before getting the pin at the
2:20 mark of the second round.
Rodriguez followed with an even more
impressive showing, taking a 4-1 lead in
with 17 seconds left in the opening period.
“We put out two guys who didn’t have
much experience and they came through,”
Altamirano said.
Rodriguez’s victory gave the Dons a 33-0
lead in the team score, but they then had to
forfeit four of the next five matches —  at
154, 172, 184 and 197.
The six points Aragon picked up via San
Mateo forfeit at 162 proved to be crucial to
the Dons’ success.
San Mateo earned their only win on the
mat as the hulking Ariel Blemur made short
work of his opponent at 222, needing a lit-
tle over a minute to record the pin.
Another Aragon forfeit at heavyweight
and the Bearcats found themselves trailing
by just three points.
But Betanzo quickly shut down any
thought of a rousing San Mateo comeback.
“Honestly, I thought [the match] would go
in San Mateo’s favor,” Altamirano said. “We
have some young guys who came through.”

Forward motion of ‘Maze
Runner’ stalls in third entry
By Jake Coyle
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Moviegoers
who come late to the “Maze
Runner” franchise, which now
numbers three, will doubtless
have one very reasonable
question: Where, pray tell, are
all the mazes I was promised?
Alas, the maze of “Maze
Runner” — referred to as “the
Glade” by the few dozen
teenagers who were mysteri-
ously dropped into it — has
been in the rearview since the
first 2014 installment, a mod-
estly budgeted YA adaption
and a bit of a “Hunger Games”
knockoff. But what the two
sequels, first “Maze Runner:
Scorch Trials” and now
“Maze Runner: The Death
Cure,” have lacked in
labyrinths, they have made up
for in running.
Literal running but also a
genuinely kinetic forward
movement. The “Maze
Runner” films, which have all
been directed by former visual
effects supervisor Wes Ball,
move better than the average
dystopia. So many fantasies
bog themselves down with

If you are cooking the fish with the skin on, you can get that pan screaming hot before you add the fish, and when the skin
hits the pan it starts to crisp up immediately. It then stays crisp and delicious and great to eat.
Wonderfully lush salmon
with tarragon vinaigrette
By Katie Workman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
A good piece of fish needs very little
to make it perfect. Here, the brisk,
anisey-tangy flavor of tarragon vinai-
grette is a wonderful complement to
the lushness of salmon filets.
If you start with excellent salmon
and super-fresh herbs, and don’t over-
cook the fish, you cannot mess this
up. It’s a less-is-more dish.
The mix of orange and lemon juices
in the vinaigrette gives provides a
nice balance of sweetness and tangi-
ness. If you are in possession of a
Meyer lemon, you could use 3 table-
spoons of that juice in place of the
mix, and get similar results. Not exact-
ly the same, but something else won-
derful.
I love starting fish in a pan (make
sure your fish is fairly thick, about 1-
inch or even thicker) and then transfer-
ring it to a stove to finish cooking.
Here are the three main reasons why:
1) You can use the oven to cook
something else to go with the fish,
whether it’s roasted potatoes or other
vegetables.
2) If you are cooking the fish with
the skin on, you can get that pan
screaming hot before you add the fish,
and when the skin hits the pan it starts

to crisp up immediately. It then stays
crisp and delicious and great to eat.
Soft fish skin: not good. Crisp fish
skin: a fabulous counterpoint to a
well-cooked, soft, delicate fish.
3) Perhaps best of all: You don’t
have to flip the fish, which even for
the most confident and experienced
cooks doesn’t always end well.
Salmon is available everywhere
because it’s so good and so popular. If
you can get wild Alaskan salmon, do
yourself (and the environment) a favor
and buy it. It has a more pronounced
flavor than farm-raised does, so you’re
getting the full salmon experience.
And because the Alaskan seafood folks
are vigilant about sustainability and
harvesting practices, you know you’re
eating salmon that has no growth hor-
mones, artificial coloring, preserva-
tives or added stuff that you might be
wondering about in fish.
Serve this (maybe for Valentine’s
Day?) with rice and a green salad, or a
whole-grain salad mixed with some
fresh or roasted vegetables.

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
Heat a heavy, ovenproof skillet over
high heat and add 1 tablespoon of the
olive oil.
Brush some olive oil over each piece
of salmon, and season with salt and
pepper. Add the salmon to the pan,
skin side down (if relevant). Allow to
sear, without moving, in the pan for
about 3 minutes. Transfer to the oven
and roast for 5 to 8 minutes, until done
to your liking.
While the salmon is cooking, in a
small container combine the 1/4 cup
olive oil, orange juice, lemon juice,
tarragon, shallots, Dijon mustard, and
salt and pepper. Shake to combine.
Transfer the fish to a serving platter
or individual plates. Shake the vinai-
grette to remix it, and then pour it over
the fish. Serve hot or warm.

Musical Colonel: Reba
McEntire to play KFC chain’s founder
NEW YORK — The next Colonel Sanders is giving the char-
acter a little bit of “country music flair.” KFC has picked
singer Reba McEntire to play the founder
of the fried chicken chain, the first female
celebrity in the role.
In commercials starting next week,
McEntire dons the Colonel’s famous
white suit and black tie, but with a twist.
McEntire’s outfit has fringe on the
back, and a glittery shine, giving the
getup “a little bit of the country music
flair,” she told the Associated Press in an
Reba McEntire interview. McEntire sings on stage as the
Colonel, with a white wig and white facial
hair.
“I thought the transformation was really funny,” said
McEntire, who will appear in the ads until the end of April. “I
got a big kick out of it.”
A rotating cast of famous names have portrayed the Colonel
since 2015, but McEntire is the first famous female to do it,
and the first musician. She may also be the first woman in
KFC’s nearly 90-year-history to depict the Colonel. The com-
pany said the “best historical minds at KFC” could not remem-
ber a woman having stepped into the role.
McEntire was approached about doing so in December. “I
said ‘Holy smokes!’,” McEntire told The AP. “KFC has been a
part of my life forever.”
KFC said it picked McEntire because of her Southern roots,
and to help promote its new Smoky Mountain BBQ, which
combines fried chicken with a taste of barbeque. McEntire
said she’s eaten at KFC all her life, since her days growing up
in Oklahoma.
Tide Pod doughnuts are
irreverent response to harmful trend
CAROLINA BEACH, N.C. — Bakers are responding to the
dangerous “Tide Pod challenge” with sweet and savory irrev-
erence.
Wake N Bake Donuts in Carolina Beach, North Carolina,
and Kansas-based Hurts Donut have both made pastries deco-
rated to look like the laundry detergent pods, which are at the
center of a dangerous social media trend.
The “Tide Pod challenge” has gained attention in recent
weeks as a social media-fueled trend in which teenagers eat
single-load laundry detergent packets and post videos.
The North Carolina doughnut shop said on its Facebook
page last week that an employee came up with the idea to
show “youth the difference between what to eat and what not
to eat.”
Owner Danny Tangredi told WECT-TV : “I definitely didn’t
think we would make a Tide Pod doughnut. But I also didn’t
think people would eat Tide Pods.”
Hurts Donut introduced its offering in Wichita on January
17, according to the Wichita Eagle .
“We’ve had a really good response so far,” owner Trista
Patterson told the newspaper. “We’ve only had a few people
who think it’s not funny.”
A New York City pizzeria even launched “Pied Pods,” offer-
ing rolls stuffed with cheese and pepperoni and topped with
dyed cheese made to look like a detergent pod.
Commenters on social media have had a mixed response.
Some think the businesses are being irresponsible because
the real detergent is dangerous to consume, while others think
the pastries are funny.

They are among the few left on Earth
immune to a virus that turns all into zom-
bies. In “Maze Runner,” they escaped the
enormous concrete maze they were plopped
into with their memories erased. By “Scorch
Trials,” they realized the institution that
sheltered them (WCKD, under the command
of an icy scientist played by Patricia
Clarkson and a severe commander played by
Aidan Gillen) wasn’t to be trusted. They
broke out and joined with a band of resist-
ance fighters. In “The Death Cure,” they try
to free the remaining lab rats, including
their pal Minho (Ki Hong Lee), who are
housed in the last remaining city, a walled-
in cluster of skyscrapers.
The “Maze Runner” trilogy has essential-

college (WCKD) and finally into the urban

are very sincere movies about the fellow-
ship of friends trying to survive together
and figure out just who they can trust. There
is a drinking game’s worth of moments
where a character vows not leave their buddy
behind.
“The Death Cure” is the biggest budgeted,
most bloated and longest running entry for
the franchise. It maintains the movies’
quick pace before stalling in an overlong
finale. It should be a mutually understood
condition that if you’re going to name your
movie “Maze Runner: The Death Cure,”
you’ve got to turn in a cut under two hours.
Think too much about the plot and it will
surely spoil the fun of “The Death Cure.”
WCKD may be an imperfect organization,
but then again, the fate of the human race
hangs in the balance. WCKD’s chief moti-
vation is to study the blood of the immune

only a millennial listened.
But if the “Maze Runner” films have
chronicled major stages of young adult-
hood, they have graduated a few along the
way. O’Brien has shouldered the films well,
even as much of their enjoyment derives
from the scattered ensemble of characters
actors (Giancarlo Esposito, Will Poulter,
Walton Goggins). But Ball’s command of
the camera and his ability to hurtle his char-
acter through science-fiction realms has
visibly grown through the three movies.
For too long “The Death Cure” stays in one
place; it’s best when on the move. And now,
it’s probably time for Ball to move on, too.
“The Maze Runner: The Death Cure,” a
20th Century Fox release, is rated PG-13 by
the Motion Picture Association of America
for “for intense sequences of sci-fi violence
and action, language, and some thematic
elements.” Running time: 142 minutes.

For Assemblyman Phil Ting, D-San
Francisco, Brown’s assertive stance
on increasing the number of zero-
emission vehicles on California roads
to 5 million by 2030 resonated with
his own commitment to protecting
California’s resources.
Ting noted Brown’s focus on encour-
aging both automakers and drivers to
adopt zero-emission technology sig-
naled his comprehensive view on
environmental issues and the work
ahead to reach ambitious greenhouse
gas reduction goals in the coming
year.
“He reinforced the need to protect our
environment for two simple reasons
— clean air and clean water,” he said.
“We continue to fight those fights and
push policies that aspire to both of
those goals.”
Ting also commended the gover-
nor’s ability to balance fiscal respon-
sibility with a need to increase K-12
and higher education funding, which
Brown emphasized as a major accom-
plishment.

California now has a roughly $6 bil-

efforts to boost K-12 spending, lessen
prison overcrowding and advance a
slate of policies to confront a warming
climate.
He avoided outlining new programs
or initiatives for his final year as gov-
ernor but forcefully defended two ongo-
ing infrastructure projects that face pub-
lic and legislative skepticism: The pro-
posed bullet train from Los Angeles to
San Francisco and a plan to re-route
water from north to south through one
or two massive tunnels. Costs of the
train have skyrocketed, most recently
by $3 billion for a segment in the
Central Valley, and its proposed time-
line of opening by 2029 could be
delayed. It would be the nation’s first
high-speed rail.
“I make no bones about it. I like
trains and I like high-speed trains even
better,” Brown said. “Difficulties chal-
lenge us but they can’t discourage us or
stop us.”
Similarly, he said he’s convinced his
effort to send water to Southern
California can be done in a way that
will save water and protect wildlife. His

Elton John says upcoming tour will be his last
By Mesfin Fekadu
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Elton John is retiring from
the road after his upcoming three-year global
tour, capping nearly 50 years on stages
around the world.
“I’ve had a good run, I think you’d admit
that,” John said Wednesday, adding that he
wanted to “leave people thinking, ‘I saw the
last tour and it was fantastic.”’
The 70-year-old singer, pianist and com-
poser said he wanted to spend time with his
family. His children will be 8 and 10 when the
tour ends in 2021, and John said he hoped he
might be able to take them to soccer practice.
“My priorities now are my children and my
husband and my family,” he said. “This is the
end.”
John made the announcement at an event in
New York in which he sat at a piano and per-
formed “Tiny Dancer” and “I’m Still
Standing.” He wore his signature glasses and
a colorful suit jacket that read “Gucci Loves
Elton.”
His final tour — dubbed “Farewell Yellow
Brick Road” — starts on Sept. 8 in
Allentown, Pennsylvania and includes 300
shows in North America, Europe, Asia and
POT

Officials’ comfort was buttressed by the
existence of the city’s thriving biotech
industry, as the systems required to assure
safe and appropriate business use of com-
mercial marijuana are already in place,
according to video of the meeting
Wednesday, Jan. 24.
“These are uses the city has a lot of expe-
rience with on how to regulate them, and
the infrastructure to support them,” said
Alex Greenwood, director of Economic and
Community Development.
Manufacturing, testing, delivery and dis-
tribution will be allowed outright under the
council’s decision, and officials will return
with a more detailed policy proposal
regarding the commercial cultivation rules.
The most recent vote follows a previous
decision by councilmembers to prohibit
retail pot shops and outdoor cultivation.
While most officials agreed the city’s life
sciences companies are adequately prepared
to safely deal with cannabis, Councilman
Rich Garbarino took a simpler approach in
his favorable vote.
“It’s here, we are not going to stop it. To
NATION/LOCAL
South America. Tickets
go on sale beginning
Feb. 2.
Interest in the
announcement was so
high his website crashed.
He wrote on Instagram
that “EltonJohn.com will
be fully back online as
soon as possible.”
Elton John
John said he decided on
his retirement plans in 2015 in France: “I
can’t physically do the traveling and I don’t
want to,” he said. He said he may do a resi-
dency after the tour wraps, but ruled out the
idea of using a hologram of himself. He called
it “spooky” and “a bit freaky,” and said he
told his kids to “promise me that there won’t
be a hologram of me.”
“Who knows? They may go broke and put
me back on the (expletive) stage,” he added.
John has suffered several medical setbacks
of late, including a bacterial infection last
year that he contracted during a South
American tour and an E. coli bacterial infec-
tion in 2009. He’s also had appendicitis and
has been fitted with a pacemaker. But on
Wednesday he said he’s “in great health.”
In an interview after the announcement,
bury your head in the sand and say ‘no, I
don’t want anything,’ that’s ridiculous …
Let’s regulate it to the extent that we can,”
he said.
Officials will continue grappling with
finer details of the issue though, as coun-
cilmembers expressed a desire to assure
marijuana uses are limited to the area east
of Highway 101, near the biotechnology
hub.
An initial proposal suggested some of
the companies should be allowed west of
the highway along the city’s southern bor-
der where industrial businesses and ware-
houses exist. Ultimately though, coun-
cilmembers expressed discomfort with the
idea of marijuana companies popping up
near residential neighborhoods.
Safety concerns permeated much of the
discussion, and led to Matsumoto voting
against the proposal. She said her support
would be reserved for the initiative until
more data regarding the burden on emer-
gency response personnel is available.
“I need to wait and see. I’m concerned
about the increase we might have from the
policing standpoint, and that cost,” she
said.
The vote to largely embrace marijuana
came following officials discussing the ini-
tiative for the past year, during which time
John told the Associated Press, “Ten years
ago, I wanted to die onstage.”
But, he said, “I just never thought father-
hood could bring me so much joy, and I came
to fatherhood late in the day, but it’s been one
of the miracles of my life.”
He said two children keep him and husband
David Furnish busy: “We thought about (more
kids) but we said, ‘No.’ We have enough on
our plate with these two. If we were 10, 15
years younger, we probably would have, defi-
nitely. I would love to have a little girl.”
At the Grammy Awards, to be presented in
New York on Sunday, John is to perform
alongside Miley Cyrus and will collect the
President’s Merit Award. His Las Vegas resi-
dency ends in May after six years. His hits
include “Your Song” and “Candle in the
Wind.” He has won five Grammys, an Oscar,
a Golden Globe for “The Lion King” and a
Tony Award for “Aida.” He is the recipient of
a Kennedy Center Honor and has sold 300
million records.
“I had a period in my life when I was selling
records, I couldn’t stop being No. 1, and I
gradually evened out. If you’re good live, it’s
about being able to play live. The great
artists that are out now — McCartney,
Springsteen, Sting, Bob Dylan — they’ve all
members of the police and fire departments
expressed confidence they could appropri-
ately manage the issue.
Groundwork for the decision was laid by
Proposition 64, which legalized recre-
ational use of marijuana for adults 21 years
and older. It allows individuals to grow up
to six plants for personal use, and leaves
local governments control over whether to
allow commercial operations.
The decision is apart from many other
local municipalities which have shied away
from marijuana business. Cities such as San
Bruno, Burlingame, Colma, Foster City,
East Palo Alto and Portola Valley are among
some in San Mateo County which have

been great live performers, The Who — that’s
the longevity,” he said. “There aren’t many
of us left and I don’t think when we go there
will be anybody else to replace us.”
John launched his first tour in 1970 and has
performed over 4,000 times in more than 80
countries. He was inducted into the Rock and
Roll Hall of Fame in 1994.
He said the upcoming tour could include
special guests onstage: “Maybe. Yeah, of
course. ...That keeps the momentum of the
tour going. ...That will happen.”
From 1970-76, John released 10 original
studio albums and seven consecutive chart
toppers. He remained a hit maker over the fol-
lowing four decades, from “The Lion King”
soundtrack song “Can You Feel the Love
Tonight” to a revision of his Marilyn
Monroe ode “Candle in the Wind,” released in
1997 after the death of John’s friend Princess
Diana and one of the best-selling singles of
all time.
“I love music. It’s not a chore. It’s pleasure.
Music kept me alive when I was doing drugs
and I was still working. It’s a constant in my
life ever since I’ve been a young boy. The rea-
son I’m here is because of music. And now the
reason has changed — it’s because of my
children,” he said.
approved bans or moratoriums on allowing
the recreational industry.
The issue is slated to return before South
San Francisco officials in May, when they
will finalize terms of their decision and
give greater consideration to the indoor
commercial cultivation issue.
While willing to embrace the opportuni-
ty presented through marijuana businesses,
Councilman Pradeep Gupta said it is imper-
ative officials continue to monitor the
effectiveness of the policy.
“We need to make sure that our safety and
responsibility are always kept in mind.
And that rights and responsibilities go
hand in hand,” he said.
