Another hearing for Redwood City hotel plan

New design entails five stories and 112 rooms
By Zachary Clark
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
A proposal to build a hotel in
downtown Redwood City is up for
a public hearing this week after it
was entitled in 2017 because proj-
ect plans have since been modified
to include an additional level and
about 20 more rooms.
The Architectural Advisory
Committee on Jan. 17 will review
the Holiday Inn Express & Suites
proposal, which entails 112
rooms in a five-story building at
1690 Broadway. The original
plans included subterranean park-
ing, but now the garage with 94
stalls plus 12 spots for bikes will
be located on the first floor.
Applicant Viren Patel said he
abandoned subterranean parking
because of the cost and risks asso-
ciated with such an endeavor —
the site has been designated a
flood zone by the Federal
Emergency Management Agency
— and the extra story was added to
compensate for that loss of space.
The plan is to also offer around-
the-clock valet service.
The site is currently home to the
Garden Motel, an aging two-story
building with 17 rooms built
about 40 years ago. Patel grew up
in the building and still runs the
hotel with his family, but it’s time
for an upgrade, he said. The exist-
ing hotel would be demolished and
he and his family will continue to

The names behind the Fifield-Cahill Ridge Trail
W
ho were Fifield and Cahill,
whose names live on in the
Fifield-Cahill trail, a 10-mile
long trek that offers stunning views of the
Peninsula watershed and adjacent rolling
green hills?
The trail recently marked the 15th
anniversary of its docent led hikes along
the San Francisco Public Utilities
Commission trail that extends from trail-
heads at Skylawn Memorial Park in San
Mateo to Sneath Lane in San Bruno. The
milestone provides an opportunity to recall
what the area was like before water sub-
merged the land and access was limited to
the escorted tours of today — an era when
bears and Indians roamed the countryside.
“The namesakes of the Fifield-Cahill
Ridge Trail set up shop along the ridges,”
said Betsy Lauppe Rhodes, spokeswoman
for the San Francisco PUC. “W.J. Fifield
operated a 1, 000-acre dairy farm along
Pilarcitos Creek from the 1860s until the
Spring Valley Water Company purchased his
land around the turn of the century. The
Cahill family owned and farmed 400 acres
along Pilarcitos Creek and land atop the
ridge we now call Cahill.”
The archives at both the San Mateo
County History Museum and the Vollmayer
History Room at the Redwood City Library
yielded far more information about the
Cahills than the Fifields. Among other
mysteries, researchers were unable to deter-
mine what the initials W.J stood for. Even
legal documents used only the initials. He
LOCAL
must have been extremely successful, how-
ever. An 1878 book of lithographs of
prominent San Mateo County residences
contained a page depicting Fifield’s proper-
ty.
One reason more is known about the
Cahills can be credited to the impressive
history research papers produced many
years ago by students at San Mateo Junior
College, then located at Coyote Point and
now called College of San Mateo. A report
written in 1947 by student Joseph Ruark
stated that the area was called merely Cahill
Ridge “by everybody” because a family of
that name lived there, but it was not until
1892 that the name was officially recog-
nized in a U.S. Geological Survey.
According to Ruark, Anthony Cahill, a
native of Ireland, settled in the area in the
1850s and in 1866 purchased 13 acres from
Alfred Borel. Later, more land was bought
from Borel by the Cahills, including 76
acres in 1875.
Ruark’s paper is based largely on inter-
views with Anthony Cahill’s descendants
who recounted “family lore” that is filled
with tales of wild adventures which included
bears, bandits and what today would be
called Native Americans.
“The last grizzly bear killed on the
Peninsula is believed to have been killed
near Cahill Ridge,” according to Ruark’s
paper, which did not give a date of the bear’s
demise, but did say the animal was slain
after it attacked a farmer’s cow.
The men in the area built a scaffold near
the cow’s remains and spent the night
perched high, waiting anxiously for the
bear to return and claim what was left of his
prey. The lure worked.
“The men fired and the bear ran on,” Ruark
wrote. “However, they had wounded him,
and he was found dead the next morning.”
Ruark’s research revealed that each year
Indians visited burial grounds in the area “in
a kind of pilgrimage.”
“The Indians would camp around the
grounds until the huckleberries were ripe,

and then gather them for food and for winter
use. They would spear fish in the surround-
ing streams which were smoked for use later
on.”
Mary Cahill, Anthony’s sister, was “so
frightened” of the Indians when they came
to the farmhouse that she gave them all the
bread she had “in hopes it would induce
them to leave, which of course they did.”
The bandit in the yarn was Raphael Vadel,
who, according to Ruark’s research, roomed
with the Cahills. The Cahills were unaware
that Vadel was an outlaw until he robbed
“Mr. Cahill who had been his so-called
friend for some time.”

Services expand at South San Francisco courthouse
By Anna Schuessler
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
In an effort on behalf of court officials to
make services more accessible to those liv-
ing in the northern portion of San Mateo
County, a slate of criminal court and family
law services became available at the Superior
Court’s Northern Branch in South San
Francisco Monday, Jan 7.
The uptick of operations at the South San
Francisco courthouse at 1050 Mission Road
will restore many of the services pulled back
during state budget cuts made some seven
years ago, explained Court Executive Officer
Neal Taniguchi. After the closure of the cour-
thouse’s clerk’s office in 2013, the court-
house has largely been used for preliminary
hearings, with most of the San Mateo
County Superior Court hearings consolidat-
ed at the Hall of Justice in Redwood City, the
court’s southern branch.
It wasn’t until the state budget for the
2018-19 fiscal year included more funding
for courts that officials could restore criminal
court hearings, a clerk’s office to process
court documents and a family law office at the
South San Francisco courthouse, said
Taniguchi.
“We’re restoring services that were cut a
number of years ago because of the budget
cuts,” he said. “This is our attempt to restore
many of the services that the Legislature had-
n’t funded for a while.”
The expanded offerings at the courthouse
in the northern portion of the county follow
the expansion of counter and phone hours at
the Redwood City court clerk’s offices, jury
office and records division, which began
Nov. 5. Previously shortened to end at 2
p.m. most weekdays, hours at the court
clerk’s office in the southern branch have
been extended so it is open weekdays from
8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m.
By offering misdemeanor arraignments,
misdemeanor pretrial conferences and
motions to suppress evidence at the South
San Francisco courthouse, Presiding Judge
Jonathan Karesh is hoping the shift to offer
more services there will save dozens of resi-
dents living in the northern portion of San
Mateo County the long trip to Redwood
City.
Acknowledging the challenges of taking
public transportation from cities like Daly
City and South San Francisco to Redwood
City, Karesh expected the expanded services
to open opportunities for those defending
their cases as well as jurors in northern San
Mateo County to more easily attend court
hearings. Though he noted the shift does not
bring the South San Francisco courthouse all
the way back up to its level of service before
the budget cuts, he said it does allow for one
jury trial to be held there as well.
“A lot of these defendants, they used to
have to come down to Redwood City … that
could take hours potentially,” he said, not-
ing the trip can be even more difficult for
those with suspended licenses.
Karesh also looked to the establishment of
a satellite family law office to be a boon for
residents in northern San Mateo County,
noting those hoping to file a restraining
order now have a chance to do so in South
San Francisco.
Noting many of the larger San Mateo
County cities — such as Daly City, South
San Francisco and San Mateo — are located
in the northern portion of the county,
Taniguchi expected more cases originating
in those cities to be heard in the northern
Comment on

www.smdailyjournal.com
branch. He noted some cases, such as those
in which defendants are in custody, will like-
ly still be heard in the southern branch
regardless of their origin since the county
jails are located close to the Hall of Justice at
400 County Center.
Both Karesh and Taniguchi expressed hope
the uptick in funding for the courts would
continue under Gov. Gavin Newsom. Though
the San Mateo County Superior Court cut its
self-help services back some 50 percent dur-
ing the budget cuts, Taniguchi said they are
back up to 75 percent of where they were
before the deficits but are looking to fully
restore them with the help of state funds. He
added the San Mateo County Superior Court
was forced to lay off five of the seven court
commissioners during the budget cuts, but
has since restored the number of court com-
missioners to four.
Karesh noted all civil court cases will con-
tinue to be heard in Redwood City, and said
the traffic court, currently located in the same
building as small claims court at 500 County
Center in Redwood City, will move to the
South San Francisco courthouse in March for
some three years as officials make way for a
new county office building in downtown
Redwood City.
Slated for the block bounded by Hamilton
Street, Marshall Street and Middlefield Road,
the new county office building will require
the relocation of the historic Lathrop House
to a lot adjacent to the back of the history
museum across the street. Once the building
is complete, Karesh said officials expect to
move the traffic and small claims courts to
new courtrooms in the Hall of Justice.
Karesh noted the shift of the traffic court to
South San Francisco in the coming months
is not part of the expanded services at the
northern branch. But he expected the restora-
tion of services at the South San Francisco
courthouse to be an important step in mak-
ing court services more accessible for San
Mateo County residents.
“I think it’s going to be great on all lev-
els,” he said.

Bankruptcy likely for PG&E after wildfires

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO — A newspaper says employees of

Pacific Gas and Electric could learn this week if the utility
will declare insolvency while facing billions of dollars in
liability over its role in recent California wildfires.
The San Francisco Chronicle reported Sunday that under a
new state law, PG&E must tell its employees at least 15 days
before a change of control in the company — including a
bankruptcy filing.
That notice may come as soon as Monday. PG&E’s CEO
Geisha Williams announded Sunday she will be leaving.
PG&E is in discussions with lenders about a financing
package worth up to $5 billion. It would allow the company
to continue operating during Chapter 11 bankruptcy pro-
ceedings.
State fire investigators blamed the utility’s power lines
for causing a number of California wildfires in October REUTERS
2017. Firefighters battle the Camp Fire, which was started by PG&E equipment and will contribute to the utility’s bankruptcy claim.

Saturday made public the one-paragraph letter they said was

Thursday after fatally shooting Officer Natalie Corona.
Police spokesman Lt. Paul Doroshov said the paper was
found face up on the gunman’s bed.
“The Davis Police department has been hitting me with
ultra sonic (sic) waves meant to keep dogs from barking,”
the letter said. “I notified the press, internal affairs, and
even the FBI about it.”

Graham urging Trump to reopen government
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — A Republican lawmaker advising
President Donald Trump said he is encouraging the president
to reopen the government for several weeks to continue
negotiating with Democrats over funding for a U.S.-Mexico
border wall before the president takes the more drastic step
of declaring a national emergency.
But that may be wishful thinking, given that Sen. Lindsey
Graham also says Trump still wants to reach a deal for the
wall before agreeing to reopen shuttered government depart-
ments. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, a leading Democratic
negotiator, insists that Trump reopen the government first.
The weeks-old standoff over funding led to the partial gov-
ernment shutdown that hit day 23 on Sunday without an end
in sight.
“Before he pulls the plug on the legislative option, and I
think we’re almost there, I would urge him to open up the
government for a short period of time, like three weeks,
before he pulls the plug, see if we can get a deal,” said
Graham, a South Carolina Republican. “If we can’t at the end
of three weeks, all bets are off.”
“See if he can do it by himself through the emergency
powers. That’s my recommendation,” added Graham, who
has publicly pushed Trump to use his authority to declare a
national emergency to build the wall. Such a step would
allow Trump to bypass Congress and tap various pots of
unspent federal money, including for military construction
and disaster relief and from asset seized by law enforcement,
to pay for the wall.
Trump has kept Washington on edge over whether he
would resort to such a declaration, citing what he says is a
“crisis” of drug smuggling and the trafficking of women and
children at the border. The president initially sounded as
though such a move was imminent, but then pulled back. He
has said several times since he first mentioned the idea in
public earlier this month that he prefers to try to reach a deal
with Congress.
A key question is how much more time is Trump willing to
give lawmakers. Graham, who said he and Trump talked by
telephone on Sunday morning, said the legislative path “is
just about shut off” and blamed Pelosi.

The speaker’s office had no immediate
comment.
Democrats oppose an emergency decla-
ration but may be powerless to block it.
Some Republicans are wary, too, fearing
how a future Democratic president might
use that authority. Such a move, should
Trump ultimately go that route, would
almost certainly be challenged in the
courts.
Lindsey
Sen. Chris Coons, D-Del., called
Graham
Graham’s idea to reopen the government
a “great place to start.”
“I do think if we reopen the government, if the president
ends this shutdown crisis, we have folks who can negotiate
a responsible, modern investment in technology that will
actually make us safer,” Coons said.
Trump has maintained that the border cannot be secured
without a wall.
Graham said he thinks Trump is willing to accept the $5.7
billion he has insisted on for the wall, along with some
immigration measures Democrats might find acceptable,
such as helping immigrants who were illegally brought to
the U.S. as children.
Trump has expressed interest in a broader immigration
overhaul, but says he first wants the Supreme Court to
address the class of immigrants known as “Dreamers.”
Pelosi also has shown no interest in accepting a wall — she
has called it an “immorality” — in exchange for immigra-
tion fixes.
And, Trump, who was holed up in the White House as snow
blanketed Washington on Sunday, appeared to shoot down
Graham’s suggestion of a “wall plus” deal, saying on Twitter
that even Democrats don’t want to make “Dreamers” part of
the negotiations.
“The damage done to our Country from a badly broken
Border - Drugs, Crime and so much that is bad - is far greater
than a Shutdown, which the Dems can easily fix as soon as
they come back to Washington!” Trump said in a separate
tweet.
The White House has been laying the groundwork for an
emergency declaration, feared by members of both parties.

Trump dodges questioning about
whether he has worked for Russia
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump avoided directly
answering when asked whether he currently is or has ever
worked for Russia after a published report said law enforce-
ment officials, concerned about his behavior after he fired
FBI Director James Comey in 2017, had begun investigating
that possibility.
Trump said it was the “most insulting”
question he’d ever been asked.
The New York Times report Friday cited
unnamed former law enforcement officials
and others familiar with the investiga-
tion.
Trump responded to the story Saturday
during a telephone interview broadcast on
Fox News Channel after host Jeanine
Donald Trump Pirro, a personal friend, asked the Russia
question.
“I think it’s the most insulting thing I’ve ever been asked,”
Trump said. “I think it’s the most insulting article I’ve ever
had written, and if you read the article you’ll see that they
found absolutely nothing.”
Trump never answered Pirro directly, but went on to assert
that no president has taken a harder stance against Russia
than he has.
“If you ask the folks in Russia, I’ve been tougher on Russia
than anybody else, any other ... probably any other presi-
dent, period, but certainly the last three or four presidents.”
Trump’s claim was disputed by Virginia Sen. Mark Warner,
the top Democrat on the Senate Intelligence Committee. He
said almost all the sanctions on Russia arose not in the White
House but in Congress, due to concerns by members of both
parties about Moscow’s actions. Warner accused the White
House of being very slow to put in place the penalties.
The Times reported that FBI agents and some top officials
became suspicious of Trump’s ties to Russia during the 2016
presidential campaign but didn’t open an investigation at
that time because they weren’t sure how to approach such a
sensitive probe.

How long can O’Rourke wait as 2020 pace picks up?

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
AUSTIN, Texas — You won’t see Beto

for president in 2020 for a while. But you

Car accident help
Editor,
On Friday afternoon, Jan. 4, I was in
an accident on Highway 101 and State
Route 92 and a gentleman named Zack
stopped to render aid. My car was
immobile and I was temporarily
unable to act. Zack called for help,
checked on my condition and assured
me help was on the way. I do not
know his last name but I am grateful
for this good Samaritan’s help.

Disappointed in Gov. Newsom
Editor,
When someone is elected, they
become a representative of all the peo-
ple. I am so disappointed in Gov.
Newsom’s first day statements. Voters
are tired of the elected only represent-
ing half their constituencies. I was
hopeful that the governor would at
least pretend to care about everyone.
When I was younger, I thought all
Californians wanted the same things
like a clean environment, our children
to be safe in good schools, one fewer
pothole and jobs. Obviously this is
not the case. The main focus will be
on taxing young people that want to
change not getting hurt or sick. In
addition, maintaining the sanctuary
state that led to the horrific murder of
Cpl. Singh. Gov. Newsom is all the
people’s governor; he is my governor.
Unfortunately, meet the new boss,
same as the old boss.

Gov. Newsom
Editor,
I found it ironic that Gavin Newsom
referred to Cesar Chavez during his
inaugural address. Cesar Chavez was
against illegal immigration because it
drove down wages and encouraged
exploitation. Perhaps the governor
was not aware of that.

$150 billion
Editor,
I”ll certainly not impugn the charac-
ter or veracity of Ms. Pamela
Abramson, but her statement “Obama
gave Iran $150 billion” (“A personal
attack is not a rational debate” in the
Jan. 9 edition of the Daily Journal)
needs clarification. I’m sure she would
concede is fair. That $150 billion was
Iran’s own money from their oil rev-
enue and the like. It was frozen due to
sanctions on Iran, and given back  as
part of the deal for cessation of their
nuclear bomb program. The deal is
unpopular with conservatives who feel
we gave away too much. I’m sure Ms.
Abramson didn’t mean to imply it was
American taxpayer money, so the clar-
ification.

Trump’s Oval Office speech
Editor,
Trump’s Oval Office address was
nothing more than a ho-hum, “same
ol’, same ol’” pitch for $5.7 billion
in wall funding.  forced to act that way.
He again blamed the Democrats for
the partial government shutdown. As
usual, Trump’s speech was sprinkled
with the usual “porkies.”  The “grow-
ing humanitarian and and security cri-
sis at our southern border,” if there is
one, is one of his own making.
The Huckster-in-Chief used the oval
office speech to raise funds for his re-
election.  His before and after speech
tweets requesting funds duped support-
ers into believing that the donations
to the “Official Secure the Border
Fund” would be used to fund the wall.
However, the fine print states that the
funds would be used in the “Make
America Great Again Committee.” 
Trump’s oval office speech was real-
ly a preview of his 2020 re-election
campaign with a pitch for campaign
funds thrown in.  That is, of course, if
his presidency lasts that long.

wants this fight so he can declare a

He wants to declare an emergency

to shut down the internet. Power to

Power to stop elections.

Editor,
In response to Richard King’s letter
“A dangerous man” in the Tuesday,
Jan. 1 edition of the San Mateo Daily
Journal, I would just like to bring to
his attention that Trump’s decision to
pull out of Syria was against his lead-
ing general’s and a good number of his
Republican congress. Why do people
when defending Trump bring up other
presidents. What other presidents
chose to do doesn’t make what Trump
does any better. If Mr. King thinks I
am dishonest and doesn’t think Trump
is dangerous he is entitled to his opin-
ion, but I have children and grandchil-
dren who will be affected by his deci-
sions and I do believe just that: Trump
is dangerous. Happy New Years.

Meet Michael Brownrigg,
candidate for state Senate
T
he District 13 state Senate seat now held by Jerry
Hill is up for grabs when he is termed out in 2020.
And he leaves big shoes to fill. The primary is in
March 2020 so it’s time to start thinking about who will
fill this important seat before we get all wrapped up in the
presidential election. I plan to interview each of the four
candidates, starting with the one who declared last,
Burlingame Councilman Michael Brownrigg.
The district runs from South San Francisco to Mountain
View with 82.5 percent in San Mateo County; the rest in
Santa Clara County. The other three candidates are Shelly
Masur, Redwood City coun-
cilwoman; Josh Becker,
Menlo Park venture capi-
talist; and Sally Lieber,
former Mountain View
councilwoman and former
member of the state
Assembly.
***
I met Brownrigg once
before when he first ran for
the Burlingame City
Council in 2009 and defeat-
ed Rosalie O’Mahony. But I
really didn’t know much
about his background and
was surprised to find out
about his formidable and extensive former career. He was
born in Los Altos Hills when it was primarily filled with
apricot orchards. His single mother was an academic and
moved to London to teach where Brownrigg attended high
school in Oxford. He returned to the states and graduated
from Williams College. From there, he spent a year in
D.C. working for Congressman Howard Berman. He joined
the Foreign Service in 1985 where his first assignment
was in Damascus. He is saddened by what has happened to
this once great city. He was then posted in the Operations
Center in D.C. handling trade negotiations for the State
Department and served as special assistant to Ambassador
Carla Hills, the president’s trade representative.
He left the State Department in ’97 for a business career
as a managing partner in a U.S. investment firm where he
was assigned to the San Francisco office. By then he had a
wife and a 3-year-old and the young family decided to
move to Burlingame. “ I signed up for the schools and fell
in love with the city.” he explained. Today, he and wife,
Mary Burchell, a pediatrician, have four children between
the ages of 14 and 25.
***
His local government involvement began with service
on the Burlingame Planning Commission where he served
for eight years. He decided to run for council in 2009. He
was successful on his first try. Dave Pine was his cam-
paign chairman and one of the reasons Brownrigg entered
the race late. He believed, with many others, that
Supervisor Pine would run for Hill’s seat and if so he
planned to enthusiastically support him. So when Pine
eventually decided not to run, Brownrigg finally cast his
hat into the ring in August 2018. But before that, he had
started a new business named Total Impact which advises
and helps source investors for social enterprises, those
companies whose goods or services will make the planet
better off but which also turn a profit. He is taking off
time from the firm to concentrate on the campaign.
To date, he has a number of endorsements, including all
of his council colleagues plus past Burlingame mayors.
You can find out more on his website votebrownrigg.com.
***
Brownrigg is well aware of the challenge he faces.
While he has always been a Democrat, one is supposed to
be non-political in the foreign service. He has not been
active in local Democratic politics. City government is
non-partisan as it should be. It is doubtful he will get the
endorsement of the Democratic party or the labor unions
which means he will have to raise money on his own. He
is not well known beyond north and mid San Mateo
County but he is working on meeting more people and
community leaders in the entire district (His mother lives
in Los Altos Hills). What he has is a good understanding
of local issues as a planning commissioner and city
councilmember; an unusual background in foreign trade
and finance which could be useful in a state with the
world’s sixth largest economy. He supports tax restructur-
ing for the split role of Proposition 13, where homeown-
ers’ protections stay the same, but large commercial prop-
erties do not and the building of more housing done in a
way which protects the charm of individual cities, and
transit near major job centers.

Trade war’s wounded: Companies improvise to dodge cost hikes
By Paul Wiseman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — In Rochester, New York,
a maker of furnaces for semiconductor and
solar companies is moving its research and
development to China to dodge President
Donald Trump’s import taxes — a move that
threatens a handful of its 26 U.S. jobs.
In California’s San Joaquin Valley, the
CEO of a company that makes precision
parts for the biomedical and chip making
fields jokes bitterly that he’s running “a non-
profit” and might have to cut jobs.
And west of Detroit, a metal stamping
company that supplies the auto industry is
losing business to foreign rivals because
Trump’s steel tariffs have raised metals prices
in the United States.
Trump frequently boasts that the taxes he’s
imposed on imports — steel and aluminum
and nearly half of all goods from China —
have showered the U.S. Treasury with new-
found revenue. “We are right now taking in
$billions in Tariffs,” he tweeted last month.
“MAKE AMERICA RICH AGAIN.”
Yet tariffs like Trump’s account for bare-
ly 1 percent of federal revenue. It’s actually

Toyota executive: Tariffs will

THE ASSOCIAITED PRESS
DETROIT — Chris Reynolds was promot-
ed by Toyota late last year to one of the
toughest jobs in the U.S. auto industry. He’s
in charge of North American manufacturing,
as well as human resources, legal, finance
and communications.
It’s manufacturing that will present the
biggest challenge for Reynolds, who must
navigate uncertain U. S. trade policies
including tariff threats and possible replace-
ment of the North American Free Trade
Agreement with Canada and Mexico. Toyota
produces vehicles in both countries for sale
in the U.S.
Also, U.S. auto sales are expected to
decline slightly in 2019, and sales of tradi-
tional sedans, once staples in Toyota’s U.S.
model lineup, are falling.
Reynolds, the son of a Ford factory work-
er who grew up in Detroit, spoke with The
Associated Press after his duties were
expanded by the company. The interview
has been edited for length and clarity.
Q: The U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement,
which replaces the North American Free
Trade Agreement, is still up in the air.
Twenty-five percent tariffs on imported
vehicles and parts also are on the table.
How does the new agreement affect Toyota?
A: We think that the recently negotiated
USMCA, if it’s approved, and we’re opti-
mistic that it will be, will actually allow us
to flex our production in order to build as
much as we can here. We’re looking to do
that regardless of the tariff situation. We
can’t make moves simply because of the tar-
iff situation. So while tariffs are problemat-
ic, they’re essentially a tax on the con-
sumer. Obviously we are not in favor of
them. The real litmus test for us in terms of
local investment is can we be competitive
in building what we sell here? That’s the
lens through which we would view whether

Peter Meyer, head of grain and oilseed analytics at S&P Global Platts

Tariffs tend to swell the cost of these
companies’ materials and leave them at a

unburdened by import taxes. And their
exports can be taxed when other countries

Back in December 2017, Trump gave
those companies and others a gift when he
signed a measure that slashed the corporate
tax rate from 35 percent to 21 percent. The
next month, though, he started slapping
tariffs on imports — beginning with solar
panels and dishwashers, before moving on
to steel and aluminum and then hitting
$250 billion in Chinese goods.

Toyota?
A: When you assemble a vehicle in one
state, but the parts can literally crisscross
the border five or six times before it actual-
ly gets assembled to the vehicle, it’s very
challenging to think of an outcome where
the border actually becomes a barrier to our
whole assembly process, our whole supply
chain. That’s not just true of Toyota, it’s
true of every automaker. So there’s common
industry interest in making sure that there
are as few barriers as possible. That’s why

Q: What percentage of vehicles that
Toyota sells in the U.S. are built in North
America and in the U.S.?
A: Roughly 74 percent. Fifty percent is
U.S. only, and that’s growing. We were on
that track before this sort of spasm on trade
and tariffs.
Q: If the U.S. imposes 25 percent tariffs
on imported vehicles and parts, Toyota has
said there would be significant price
increases for vehicles built in the U.S ...
Why would the Camry price go up?
A: There’s no 100 percent U. S. -made
product. Every vehicle from every manufac-
turer has some amount of componentry that
comes from somewhere else. We’ve got to
be able to absorb those costs. And where we
can’t absorb them, what tariffs do to you is
they compel us and every other manufactur-
er to pass those costs on. Let’s not forget
the steel and aluminum tariffs. They also
have an impact, and not a positive one.
because I’m not going to have any profits
to pay tax on.” For his company, “tariffs
have completely undermined everything
good that those tax cuts brought.”
The higher costs resulting from Trump’s
tariffs have yet to inflict much overall
damage to a still-robust American econo-
my, which is less reliant on international
trade than most other countries are. Fueled
by lower taxes, the economy grew at an
impressive 3.4 percent annual rate from
July through September after having
surged 4.2 percent in the previous quarter.
And employers added 2.6 million jobs last
year, the most since 2015.
And while numerous companies are hurt-
ing from the president’s confrontational
trade stance, some are benefiting from it.
An aluminum smelter in Missouri reopened
under new ownership this year, for
instance, and credited the aluminum tariffs
for reducing foreign competition and
bringing 450 jobs to New Madrid County.
But for many businesses, the tariffs are

Beef-friendly Nebraska eyeing
regulations on the word ‘meat’
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LINCOLN, Neb. — More than four
months after Missouri became the first U.S.
state to regulate the term “meat” on product
labels, Nebraska’s powerful farm groups are
pushing for similar protection from veggie
burgers, tofu dogs and other items that look
and taste like real meat.
Nebraska lawmakers will consider a bill
this year to prevent companies that package
and sell food from advertising plant-based,
insect-based and lab-grown products as
meat. Similar measures are pending in
Tennessee, Virginia and Wyoming.
The issue strikes a particularly strong
chord in Nebraska, one of the nation’s top
states for livestock production, where cars
roll down the interstate with “Beef State”
license plates and the governor each year
proclaims May as “Beef Month.”
Farm groups have found an unusual ally in
state Sen. Carol Blood, a city-dwelling veg-
etarian from the Omaha suburb of Bellevue.
Blood, who grew up on a farm, said she
introduced the measure because agriculture is
Nebraska’s largest industry and needs to be
protected for the good of the whole state.
“I’m not bringing this bill to tell people
what they can and can’t eat,” she said. “All
I’m asking for is truth in advertising. It’s

escalating costs, creating hardships and
magnifying uncertainty. The Institute for
Supply Management’s manufacturing
index plunged last month to its lowest
point in more than two years partly
because of the tariffs. And the Federal
Reserve appears increasingly worried that
damage from the trade war will undercut the
economy.
The potential costs of Trump’s tariff
campaign became clear early this month
when Apple warned that trade hostilities
with Beijing were hurting its business in
China — a key reason why its first-quarter
revenue would fall below expectations.
“It’s not going to be just Apple,” Kevin
Hassett, chairman of the White House’s
Council of Economic Advisers, acknowl-
edged to CNN. Companies with significant
sales in China will “be watching their
earnings downgraded next year until we get
a deal with China.”
Trump’s tariffs are, in theory, supposed
to help U.S. producers by raising the prices
of goods their foreign competitors ship from
abroad. But tariffs, a tax paid by importers,
can backfire. They tend to hurt American
companies that buy foreign goods for resale
or for use as components in U.S.-made prod-
ucts.

clear that meat comes from livestock, and
livestock is our livelihood in Nebraska.”
Nebraska led the nation in commercial red
meat production in 2017 and had the most
feed cows as of last year, according to the
U.S. Department of Agriculture. Livestock
and livestock product sales generated an
estimated $12.1 billion for the state’s econ-
omy in 2016, according to the USDA’s most
recent available data.
The measure is certain to face resistance
from food producers that sell plant-based
alternatives, as well as those working with
the emerging science of meat grown by cul-
turing cells in a lab. Critics say the bill
infringes on the free-speech rights of com-
panies that produce vegetarian alternatives
to real meat.
The Good Food Institute, the American
Civil Liberties Union of Missouri, the
Animal Legal Defense Fund and plant-based
food company Tofurkey have filed a federal
lawsuit challenging the Missouri law . They
argue the law unfairly stifles competition.
The Nebraska bill “would censor food
labels and create consumer confusion where
there is none,” said Jessica Almy, director
of policy for the Washington-based Good
Food Institute. “You can’t censor speech
just to promote one industry’s financial suc-
cess.”

Mateo may not have had a full slate
of wrestlers, but that didn’t stop the
boys’ wrestling team from making a
splash at the 56th Annual Jim Root
Memorial Classic Varsity Tournament.
The San Mateo Bearcats claimed
fifth place in a field of 35 teams
Saturday at Prospect High School in
Saratoga. While the four teams that
finished in front of San Mateo — first-
place Evergreen Valley; second-place
Heritage-Brentwood; third-place
Branham; and fourth-place Aptos —
carrying full slates of wrestlers, the
Bearcats entered just six individuals,
with five of them scoring points,
including two first-place finishers.
Seniors Romelo Rivas Aguilar and
Sam Kolokihakaufisi each topped the
podium in their respective weight
classes. Aguilar posted a 4-0 record in
the 145-pound division.
Kolokihakaufisi also swept through
four matches to win in the 285s. It
marked the first individual champi-
onship for each of them this season.
“It’s one of the bigger tournaments,”
San Mateo head coach Jason Cervantes
said. “So the wrestling that was done
there, hopefully in the next couple
tournaments, it’s going to help these
guys in PAL and in CCS. And hopeful-
ly bring up their rankings as well.”
Senior William Bradford took sec-
ond place in 195s, falling in the cham-

Westmoor survives HMB in late-night fiasco

By Terry Bernal

It was a downright ugly display of
basketball Saturday night at Half
Moon Bay.
Fortunately for visiting Westmoor,
its Phoenix heated up to rise the Rams
from the ashes.
Westmoor senior Phoenix Pagaduan
totaled nine points, seven of them
coming in the fourth quarter, as the
Rams finished out a late-night

Division boys’ basketball matchup
with a 37-36 victory.
“Usually it’s in pieces and bunches
like that,” Pagaduan said of his streaky
scoring. “I think I need to work on
being more consistent with that. But
the energy of the crowd, and my team-
mates and all that, it just caught fire.”
Other than Pagaduan converting all
three of Westmoor’s fourth-quarter
field goals, it was mostly a sloppy
game. The Rams finished shooting
33.3 percent (14 of 42), with Half
Moon Bay fairing even worse at 30.2
percent (13 of 43).
But even when the Rams (2-1 PAL

Dubs ride Curry past Dallas

By Dave Jackson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
DALLAS — A day after the Dallas
Mavericks got the bad news that backup
point guard and team sparkplug J.J. Barea
was lost for the season, Stephen Curry
brought more bad news — in the form of 11
3-pointers.
Curry scored 48 points and tied his season
high for 3s in a game as the Golden State
Warriors held off the Mavericks 119-114 on
Sunday night.
“We just couldn’t get Curry under con-
trol,” Mavericks coach Rick Carlisle said.
“He was brilliant tonight.”
Curry’s 11 3s were the most ever by a
Mavericks opponent. The last one was his
most important, snapping a 114-all tie with
42 seconds to play. Both Curry and Warriors
coach Steve Kerr credited Kevin Durant for
switching play calls to get Curry shots
rather than taking shots of his own.
“That was just (Durant) taking the initia-
tive, knowing that I had a hot hand going,”
Curry said. “Call it a decoy in terms of him
being in the action, but allowing me to
work. The way they were defending us, it
just made sense tonight.”
Durant added 28 points for the Warriors,
Warriors 119, Mavericks 114
and Klay Thompson had nine of his 16 in
the fourth quarter as the Warriors received a
tough test from a Dallas team playing with-
out its top two point guards, Dennis Smith
Jr. and Barea.
Luka Doncic scored 26 points for Dallas
and Harrison Barnes had 22. Jalen Brunson
had 12 off the bench in 30 minutes, in place
of the injured point guards.
After Curry’s shot, Draymond Green
blocked Brunson’s drive at the other end and
secured the loose ball. The Mavericks forced
a miss, but Barnes turned the ball over in the
frontcourt with 5 seconds left. Curry sealed
the game with free throws.
“He had mismatches,” Durant said. “He
was making shots over everybody tonight,
so why run plays? Just give him the ball.”
Dallas missed its final eight shots from
the field.
“You always can get better shots,” Doncic
said. “We were in the bonus so we wanted to
drive the ball. Today wasn’t the day.”
Devin Harris gave Dallas its first lead
since the second quarter with a driving layup
to make it 105-103 with 5:29 remaining.
Harris followed that with a 3 for a five-point
lead, capping an 11-0 run.
Curry tied it at 114 with a floater in the
lane with 1:39 to play, and Doncic missed a
3 at the other end, setting up Curry’s win-
ner.
Barea to have surgery Monday
Carlisle said Barea would have surgery
Monday to repair his ruptured right Achilles
tendon. Barea suffered the injury in the
fourth quarter Friday night against
Minnesota and is out for the season.
Barea was averaging nearly 11 points and
six assists per game.
Barea’s teammate Wesley Matthews suf-
fered the same injury in March 2015 while
playing for Portland. Matthews signed with

Saints rally to oust reigning champion Eagles
By Barry Wilner
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW ORLEANS — When the New Orleans
Saints finally found their rhythm, they
marched one step closer to the Super Bowl.
Using a dominant ball-control offense and
a few gambles that paid off, the Saints got
two touchdown passes from Drew Brees and
two interceptions from Marcus Lattimore in a
20-14 victory over the Philadelphia Eagles.
Brees took the Saints on scoring drives of
92, 79 and 67 yards after falling behind 14-
0. Lattimore clinched it when Nick Foles’
pass from the Saints 27 deflected off usually
sure-handed receiver Alshon Jeffery with
about two minutes remaining. A couple dozen
Saints players surged off the sideline toward
the end zone in celebration, while Jeffery fell
face-first to the turf in agony.
“We were real calm and poised and we
knew we were going to get things done,”
PATS

“It’s going to be a good game,” Brady said
of the rematch with the Chiefs. “They’re a
good team. We played them earlier this year.
I know everybody thinks we suck and, you
know, we can’t win any games, so we’ll see.
It’ll be fun.”
The Chargers (13-5) haven’t reached the
AFC title game since the 2007 season.
Philip Rivers finished 25 of 51 for 331
yards, three touchdowns and an interception.
He is 0-5 in games played in Foxborough,
including 0-3 in the postseason.
Brady finished 34 of 44 for 343 yards and a
touchdown. He improves to 8-0 as a starter
against Rivers, who drops to 1-8 against
New England all-time.

Saints 20, Eagles 14
Brees said.
New Orleans (14-3)
will host the NFC title
game next week against
the Rams (13-4). Los
Angeles, which fell 45-
35 at the Superdome in
Drew Brees November, will try again
next week, with the win-
ner going to the Super Bowl. The Saints’ win
finished off a sweep of the divisional round
by teams coming off byes.
Wil Lutz added two field goals for the
Saints, who last got this far in 2009, when
they won the Super Bowl.
Philadelphia (10-8) will not repeat as NFL
champion; no team has done so since the
2004 Patriots.
“We were going down to win, but I just felt
like we beat ourselves, honestly,” Jeffery
For Rivers, seeing Brady again pick apart
the Chargers defense was another reminder
that he was competing against one of the
best quarterbacks in NFL history.
“He’s up there if not the all-time great,
then one of,” Rivers said. “That argument
can go on forever. ... Was he rolling at the
highest level today? I think we can all agree
on that.”
James White tied Darren Sproles’ NFL
postseason record with 15 catches, totaling
97 yards.
New England scored on its first four pos-
sessions of the game to build a 35-7 halftime
lead.
Julian Edelman had nine catches for 151
yards. He said the run game opened up the
field for the rest of the offense.
“It was awesome to get Sony out there
trucking,” said Edelman. “Rex (Burkhead)
was out there, he scored. And ‘Sweet Feet’
(James White) being ‘Sweet Feet’. Sony’s
said. “Hats off to those guys.”
Eagles coach Doug Pederson thought his
team was on its way on that final drive to
pulling off another stunning comeback win
“It just felt like the momentum at that
point was in our favor,” he said. “It’s been
that way all season, and we felt like that sort
of magic was going to continue.”
This was really two games in one. Philly
scored on its first two drives as the Saints
could do virtually nothing right.
“Listen, they got off to a fast start, they’re
a great team,” Brees said. “Nick Foles has
done a phenomenal job for them. We knew it
was going to be different than last time.”
After that opening period, it was all New
Orleans, yet the resilient Eagles kept it close
enough that when Lutz missed a 52-yard field
goal with 2:58 remaining, they were only
one-score behind.
over there being a little horse. It was awe-
some.”
The Chargers added three touchdowns in
the second half , but it was much too late.
Los Angeles lost for just the second time
on the road (8-2) and first time outside Los
Angeles this season. In their past four trips
to the playoffs, the Chargers have lost in the
divisional round.
“We got our butts kicked,” Los Angeles
coach Anthony Lynn said.
Rivers seemed poised to keep Los Angeles
in the game, connecting with Keenan Allen
for a 43-yard score on Los Angeles’ first
offensive possession. It was the longest
touchdown of Allen’s career, including the
postseason.
It turned out to be just a blip. The Chargers
punted the four other times they had the ball
in the first half.
The Patriots were efficient throughout the

Foles, the hero of last year’s Super Bowl
run, got them in position for yet another late
winning score — just like last week at
Chicago and last February against New
England for the championship.
Then, Jeffery couldn’t handle a second-
down pass, and it was over.
“That’s a great championship team,”
Saints coach Sean Payton said of the Eagles.
“We remained confident.”
Brees had 2-yard touchdown passes to
rookie Keith Kirkwood and All-Pro wideout
Michael Thomas, who had 12 receptions for
a franchise playoff-record 171 yards.
Thomas’ touchdown capped an 18-play,
92-yard drive in which the Saints actually
covered more than 100 yards because of
penalties. It lasted 11 1/2 minutes.
“What you saw from him today is what I see
every day in practice,” Brees said of Thomas.
“He’s a big-time player who wants to be the
guy to make plays.”
zone, 5 of 6 on third down and committing
only one penalty.
New England didn’t go three-and-out for
the first time until its fifth offensive touch of
the day when it punted with 3:32 left in the
second quarter.
But Ryan Allen’s 48-yard punt was fumbled
by Desmond King , sending the ball rolling
toward the sideline. The referees ruled the
ball went out of bounds before New
England’s Albert McClellan appeared to
recover it. But the play was reversed after a
challenge by Bill Belichick.
The turnover proved costly, with the
Patriots scoring just four plays later when
Michel crossed the goal line from 5 yards for
his third touchdown of the half.
Asked if this victory proved at least some
of the Patriots’ doubters wrong, Brady paused
and smiled.
“I just like winning,” he said. “I just like
winning.”

on 12-foot pull-up jumper by Pagaduan to
take 37-33 lead, which held until there were
12 seconds left. After HMB sophomore
Lukas Meighan drilled a 3-pointer to close
to within a point, all Westmoor had to do to
protect the differential was inbound the
ball, hold it, take a foul and convert some
free throws.
On the inbound, however, Westmoor put
the ball to the floor and HMB sophomore
Sean Ediger forced it loose. Cougars guard
Michael Hourani dove in to earn a jump-
ball, with the possession arrow favoring
them, giving HMB the ball with nine sec-
onds to go.
“We have to understand that we don’t need
to dribble,” Westmoor head coach Herb
Yaptinchay said. “Worst case, we just call
the timeout. And we need to understand that.
… We like to play an up-tempo game both
ways, and sometimes you get caught up. …
That situation, it’s just you have to recog-
nize situations.”
The Cougars (2-1, 9-6), though, could not
take advantage of the opportunity. HMB
got two shots on the final possession, with
Hourani grabbing an offensive board off the
miss. He too missed the mark with Ediger
grabbing another offensive rebound, but
time expired before the Cougars could get
off a third shot.
“As I told the guys, sometimes that hap-
pens,” HMB head coach John Parsons said.
“You would have hoped we didn’t put our-
selves in the position where we have to rely
on a last-second bucket there. So, it is what
it is.”

ter, responding to an early 7-2 deficit by

going on a 9-2 run to take an 11-9 lead on a
seven-foot jumper by sophomore guard
Nate Cote, who netted a game-high 13
points.
The Rams were finding lanes to the hoop,
which proved the difference. While they
couldn’t always get shots to fall, the man-
aged to dictate the tempo, while HMB
focused more on spreading the court with
consistent passing to create open long-
range looks.
“I think that’s just style of Westmoor bas-
ketball,” Pagaduan said. “We’re never the
biggest team out there. But we’re always
going to fight regardless of how big the
team is.”
After the Rams took a 21-19 lead into
halftime, both teams came out ice cold in
the second half. Westmoor finally broke the
ice with 5:21 remaining in the third quarter
on a baseline drive by Padaduan. It took
almost two more minutes for HMB to score,
with the Cougars shooting just 2 of 13 from
the field in the third period.
“Going into a game, you figure if you give
up 37 points in the game, you’re usually
going to come out on the right side of that
one,” Parsons said. “But we just didn’t play
well enough.”
In defense of both teams and their strug-
gles Saturday, the game started over an hour
late, close to 9 p.m. With a four-game quad
format, there was an early delay, then one of
the junior-varsity games went into over-
time.
For Westmoor, the extra weight of play-
ing on the road, in a hectic environment
that included a near full house and the HMB
pep band rocking out, pitched the Rams far
from the comfort zone, according to
Yaptinchay.
“I think it was one of those situations
where it was the crowd, a late-night game;
we’re playing [until] like 10 o’clock, ”
Yaptinchay said. “So, these guys were just
trying to get out here, for us at least, in an
away gym in an environment that was a lit-
tle bit hostile.”
HMB had a supreme disadvantage as well,
as starting point guard Mykola Ediger was
out with an injury.
“That’s a big piece missing for us, ”
Parsons said. “He does a little bit of every-
thing for us. Definitely our best overall
player. But injuries happen and other guys
have to step up. We’re definitely not using
it as an excuse. We had chances to win and
we just didn’t get it done.”

mores in the rotation for the Cougars, who

minutes last season.
“As I told the group, we’ve been on a real-
ly good trajectory here, ” Parsons said.
“We’ve improved a ton. If look back like a
month ago, we’re a completely different
team. So, with those teams that have a lot of
youth, you hope that you can make bigger
strides than other teams.”
Now just two weeks into the PAL North
Division schedule, every team with the
exception of first-place Jefferson has at
least one loss.
“I think this year you have parity across
the league … so I think it is going to be up
for grabs,” Yaptinchay said. “I don’t think
there’s one team where you can say, OK,
this team is going to be the one.”
Lady Cougars win a thriller
Half Moon Bay (2-1, 6-7) scored a 55-51
win over Westmoor in the girls’ basketball
game, with senior Mailie Bowers coming up
big in the final minute.
With the Cougars clinging to a 51-49
lead, Bowers produced an offensive rebound
on a missed 3-pointer and took it to the
hoop to give HMB a two-score lead. With
HMBcarrying a mostly underclassman ros-
ter, it was feeling of Bowers putting the
youthful team on her shoulders, according
to HMB head coach Antonio Veloso.
“Now it’s all on her,” Veloso said. “She
wants this. So, that was a big moment for
her.”
After junior forward Izzy Nodar scored for
Westmoor (0-3, 7-8) to close it to 53-51
with 24 seconds left, the Cougars pushed a
fast-break inbound the other way with fresh-
man Abby Kennedy scoring a layup to close
out the win.
“We needed that win,” said Veloso, whose
team was coming off a tough 63-38 loss to
first-place South City. “We finally got over
the hump.”

Hart’s ‘The Upside’ unseats Life with Lola
‘Aquaman’ in a $19.6M debut A
By Jake Coyle
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Kevin Hart isn’t hosting the Oscars, but
he’s got a number one movie. “The Upside,” starring Hart
and Bryan Cranston, surpassed expectations to open with
$19.6 million in ticket sales, according to studio estimates
Sunday.
The strong performance of “The Upside” pushed
“Aquaman” to second after the aquatic superhero’s three-
week reign atop the North American box office. Warner
Bros.’ “Aquaman” still passed $1 billion worldwide over
the weekend, becoming the first DC Comics release to
reach that mark since 2012’s “The Dark Knight Rises.”
“The Upside” opened on the heels of several weeks of
Oscar drama surrounding Hart. The come-
dian last month withdrew from hosting
the Academy Awards , just days after
being named emcee, when he initially
refused to apologize for years-old homo-
phobic tweets.
On the publicity trail for “The
Upside,” Hart repeatedly dismissed the
Oscar controversy, saying he was “over
Kevin Hart it,” while flirting with the possibility
of returning as Oscar host — something
for which talk-show host Ellen DeGeneres, in particular,
advocated.
Whether all that attention helped raise the profile of
“The Upside,” a remake of the 2012 French comedy “The
Intouchables,” was difficult to extrapolate, though it sure-
ly didn’t hurt. Ticket sales were almost twice industry fore-
casts. The film received poor reviews (40 percent fresh on
Rotten Tomatoes) and was slammed by some critics for
trading on the kind of gay panic humor that Hart was forced
to apologize for.
Neil Burger’s film, which cost about $35 million to
make, stars Hart as an ex-con who becomes a caretaker for
a physically disabled author (Cranston). It was originally
to be distributed by the Weinstein Co. Harvey Weinstein
premiered the film at the 2017 Toronto International Film
Festival just weeks before the many allegations of sexual
harassment surfaced against the movie mogul.
DATEBOOK
STX Entertainment picked up the
movie, which on Sunday handed the
five-year-old startup studio its first no. 1
release at the box office. Launched in
2014 with a mission to make the kind of
mid-budgeted, star-driven films the stu-
dios have increasingly abandoned, STX
has had some successes (“Bad Moms,”
“The Foreigner,” the critically acclaimed
Bryan Cranston “The Edge of Seventeen”) but has often
struggled to find breakout hits. Last
year’s “The Happytime Murders,” with Melissa McCarthy,
was one of the 2017’s most glaring flops.
STX’s Motion Picture Group Chairman Adam Fogelson
pointed to strong audience reaction (an A CinemaScore) and
downplayed any effect of the Oscar chatter on “The
Upside,” noting that Hart “is in the culture constantly for
tons of stuff.”
Fogelson called the no. 1 result a symbol of larger suc-
cess for STX’s business model.
“We have been profitable on the overwhelming majority
of our movies for more than a year and a half. No one needs
to cry for us, but I don’t think the company gets credit for
that because the way we’re doing that is so different from
how traditional Hollywood has operated,” said Fogelson.
“This result is just an exclamation point on the fact that
this can work not just in an STX way but in an old
Hollywood way, as well.”
Paul Dergarabedian, senior media analyst for Comscore,
credited STX with accurately reading the marketplace. The
studio worked with the filmmakers to recut “The Upside”
from an R-rated version to make a more broadly appealing
PG-13 one.
“It’s not for the faint of heart to start up a new studio and
it can take a lot of time to get things rolling,” said
Dergarabedian. “But all it takes is one film to emotionally
or symbolically get things rolling.”
Early January is often a dumping ground in movie the-
aters and the weekend featured a number of duds. Keanu
Reeves’ sci-fi thriller “Replicas” debuted with just $2.5
million for Entertainment Studios — a career low for
Reeves. Opening more solidly, in third place, was Sony’s
canine adventure “A Dog’s Way Home” with $11.3 million.

nother update on life with the Official World’s
Cutest Puppy (my column, my rules). Now top-
ping 4 months and 5 pounds, little Lola exhibits
every reason why people should and should not have pup-
pies: they are adorable, exasperating, sweet and a whole
lot of work. The Hanukkah half
of our holidays went off without a
hitch since the Menorah is up
high on the kitchen table (many
years ago an ancient cat did man-
age to singe her tail on those
candles but Lola is far more ter-
restrial), and lots of preplanning
did yield a safe Christmas as
well. The small tree was up on a
table (the cat loved that!) and
presents, wrapped but unadorned
with ribbons and doodads (easy
to lose track of potential choke
hazards), were safe behind the baby gate. Sure, one of our
daughter’s reindeer slippers didn’t reappear until after
presents were unwrapped and Lola barely tolerated model-
ing her ugly sweater but, considering her age, I declare a
Holiday Miracle!
We’ve come to realize that people who live in glass
houses should not only avoid tossing stones, they
should also be mindful of reflections. While not entirely
glass we do live in a mid-century home with floor to ceil-
ing glass walls and sliding doors looking out from the
living room onto our yard. As the night darkens, some of
that glass becomes mirrors and the little puppy looking
back on Lola shows up unexpectedly. She solicits play
but that other pup will have none of it, charging back and
barking fiercely to match (exactly) Lola’s every move.
I’m not sure if she realizes that this is a game, and we do
try to hide the fact that we are decidedly laughing at her
rather than with her. Once so stimulated, Lola goes on a
tear, chasing that other version of herself around the
house from reflection in the doors, fireplace screen and
shiny black piano. Neither of them wins, of course, and
the real Lola is ready for reassuring hugs and kisses, on
the couch obviously, afterwards. Laughter and loving,
yes life with the World’s Cutest Puppy is pretty great!

Judge blocks Trump birth Recreational fishing rules to

be overhauled under new law
control rules in 13 states
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS General Xavier Becerra said in a statement
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

The rules that govern recreational marine

OAKLAND — A U.S. judge in California on
Sunday blocked Trump administration rules,
which would allow more employers to opt
out of providing women with no-cost birth
control, from taking effect in 13 states and
Washington, D.C.
Judge Haywood Gilliam granted a request
for a preliminary injunction by California,
12 other states and Washington, D.C. The
plaintiffs sought to prevent the rules from
taking effect as scheduled on Monday while a
lawsuit against them moved forward.
But Gilliam limited the scope of the ruling
to the plaintiffs, rejecting their request that
he block the rules nationwide.
The changes would allow more employers,
including publicly traded companies, to opt
out of providing no-cost contraceptive cov-
erage to women by claiming religious objec-
tions. Some private employers could also
object on moral grounds.
California and the other states argue that
women would be forced to turn to state-funded
programs for birth control and experience
unintended pregnancies.
“The law couldn’t be more clear — employ-
ers have no business interfering in women’s
healthcare decisions,” California Attorney
Sunday. “Today’s court ruling stops another
attempt by the Trump Administration to tram-
ple on women’s access to basic reproductive
care. It’s 2019, yet the Trump Administration
is still trying to roll back women’s rights.
Our coalition will continue to fight to ensure
women have access to the reproductive
healthcare they are guaranteed under the law.”
The U.S. Department of Justice said in court
documents the rules “protect a narrow class of
sincere religious and moral objectors from
being forced to facilitate practices that con-
flict with their beliefs.”
At issue is a requirement under President
Barack Obama’s health care law that birth
control services be covered at no additional
cost. Obama officials included exemptions
for religious organizations. The Trump
administration expanded those exemptions
and added “moral convictions” as a basis to
opt out of providing birth control services.
At a hearing on Friday, Gilliam said the
changes would result in a “substantial num-

shift.”
The judge previously blocked an interim
version of the rules — a decision that was
upheld in December by an appeals court.
fishing in the U.S. will get an overhaul due
to a new law passed by Congress, and the
country’s millions of anglers and the
groups that stake their livelihoods on them
hope the changes will bring better manage-
ment.
The new standards are part of a suite of
changes that proponents call the Modern
Fish Act that were approved by the House
and Senate in December. Supporters of the
new rules have said they will boost an indus-
try that contributes billions to the econo-
my, though some members of the fishing
industry felt deeper rule changes were war-
ranted.
The passage is a “big step toward imple-
menting science-based methods” and
“marks the first substantial update to the
federal fisheries management system in
more than a decade,” said Nicole Vasilaros,
senior vice president of the National Marine
Manufacturers Association, a boating indus-
try trade group.
The author of the proposal, Mississippi
Republican Sen. Roger Wicker, said one of
the key features of the law is that it promis-
es to help the National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration incorporate
data from fishermen, which he said would
improve timeliness and accuracy. The data
help inform fishing rules and regulations.
The proposal also encourages regional
fishery management councils to update poli-
cies for some recreational anglers who fish
in the Gulf of Mexico, one of the most pop-
ular bodies of water among sport fishermen.
The current rules are designed for commercial
fishermen and are difficult for recreational
anglers to follow, Wicker said. There are
also a host of other tweaks designed to more
efficiently manage recreational fishing.
“Passage of the Modern Fish Act will
boost our conservation efforts and benefit
the local economies that depend on recre-
ational fishing,” Wicker said.
Recreational fishing is a huge industry in
the U.S., with trade groups touting more
than 40 million licensed fishermen and an
impact on the economy well above $100
billion. A report released by NOAA earlier
this month said the recreational fishing
industry fueled more than 472,000 jobs in
2016, up from 420,000 in 2012.
Members of the Marine Fish Conservation
Network, a coalition of commercial and
recreational fishing associations and oth-
ers, said the final version of the bill was “an
improvement” from where it started, when it
faced opposition from conservationists and
industry members. However, Congress still
needs to reauthorize the Magnuson-Stevens
Act, the federal standards that govern U.S.
fisheries at large, the group said.

“The existing property is a big blight

put in a nice beautiful hotel for the down-
With 112 rooms and a total of 77, 057
square feet, the hotel would be among the
largest in the city. Patel noted the city’s
downtown precise plan includes 200 hotel
units, of which zero have been construct-
ed since the plan was adopted in 2011. He
also said the building’s height is consis-
tent with other buildings in the area.
Patel claimed Redwood City has been
losing out on transient occupancy tax
cities have built new hotels, but Redwood
City has not.
The proposed hotel will bring in about
$780, 000 annually in transient occupan-
cy tax plus $800, 000 in impact fees, not
to mention property taxes, he said,
adding that companies such as Kaiser,
Stanford and Google, which have recently
moved into town, need hotels.
Patel plans to partner with technology-
which would allow for much of the con-
struction work to be done offsite.
“There will be less laborers in the area,
which means less noise for the communi-
ty, less traffic on roads and the project is
built quicker, ” he said.
Patel hopes to begin demolition by
early March and soon after break ground.
Construction is expected to span 15
months.

With no new talks, LA teacher strike all but inevitable
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES — A massive teach-
ers strike in Los Angeles, the nation’s
second-largest school district, is all
but inevitable starting Monday after
the two sides did not renew negotia-
RENTS
Continued from page 1
purchased a large residential building
and suddenly pushed rents to unreason-
able rates, effectively evicting dozens
of tenants.
Vice Mayor Rich Garbarino agreed
officials should work to prevent such
behavior.
“Just gouging like that is unaccept-
able,” he said.
No decision was made at the meeting
and the issue will return for further dis-
cussion, but officials suggested they
were interested in more information
regarding mandated one-year mini-
mum leases, limited forms of reloca-
tion assistance and required delays
before large rent increases go into
effect.
Also, to prevent the mass evictions
caused by sudden, large rent spikes,
Community Development Director
Alex Greenwood suggested officials
consider requiring relocation assis-
tance in instances when four units or
more are simultaneously vacated.
The exact policies which could be
effective in stopping landlords from
abusing their renters are yet to be
determined, as officials maintain
POOL
Continued from page 1
report, but Colson said officials must
wait for their school district colleagues
before determining a final cost-sharing
agreement.
“We are really in a position where we
are waiting for the district to come
back to us with a proposal,” she said.
Colson noted there is a sense of
urgency for officials to rebuild the pool
rapidly, as the facility is exceedingly
popular with the Burlingame communi-
ty.
“I think the best outcome for the
community is getting this 50-meter
pool back online as quick as possible,”
she said.
The pool has been closed since last
year, when severe issues such as insuf-
ficient rebar coverage, shell flaws and
waterproofing issues, among other
malfunctions were discovered by main-
tenance workers.
tions over the weekend.
Talks broke down Friday when the
teachers’ union rejected as “woefully
inadequate” a new offer from the LA
Unified School District.
With no new discussions scheduled,
pickets are likely to begin at 7 a.m. as
diverging opin-
ions on the issue.
Local landlords
were unanimous in
their opposition of
the initiative
though, as a vari-
ety of property
owners spoke
Rich Garbarino against coun-
ci l memb ers
approving renter protections.
“Property is a private asset, it is not
a public utility and the local govern-
ment is not entitled to dictate how I
control that property,” said Jeremy
Rushton, a Realtor and South San
Francisco resident.
Moreover, Rushton, who rents a
room in his South San Francisco
house, said he is tired of the vilifica-
tion of good-intentioned landlords.
“The negative stereotype about land-
lords is quite hyperbolic,” he said.
A variety of other local landlords
joined a similar chorus, claiming they
are being misrepresented since a
majority of property owners set fair
rates and treat their tenants with
respect.
For his part, landlord Lee Ginsburg
suggested officials should focus more
on facilitating additional housing con-
struction in an effort to combat the
local affordability crisis, rather than
High school district officials agreed
the problems with the pool were so
widespread that it would be a wiser
investment to rebuild the facility than
fix it. The school board approved mov-
ing ahead with the rebuild late last year.
Though dismayed by the rising cost,
Colson said officials agree it is smarter
use of public money to collaborate on
the reconstruction than examining
opportunities to build a new, separate
city pool. Councilmembers had briefly
considered such a project, but Colson
noted other, large pending capital proj-
ects like rebuilding the Recreation
Center will likely preclude city offi-
cials from pursuing another expensive
facility.
Looking ahead, Colson said if city
officials are asked to ramp up their
investment, they would be looking to
lengthen the term of their use agree-
ment at the pool. She is also hopeful
school officials would be amenable to
allowing the city to pay portions of
the rebuild cost in installments over an
extended period of time.
Colson also expressed confidence

including higher pay and smaller class
sizes.
Schools will stay open if a walkout
happens. The district, with 640,000
students, has hired hundreds of substi-
tutes to replace teachers.
consider private property restrictions.
“I worked very hard for my proper-
ties and I should not be forced to han-
dle a regional problem on my own
shoulders,” he said.
For the part of officials, most agreed
the landlords who act responsibly and
legally should not fear the policies
designed to confront bad actors.
“I want to look out for the moms and
pops, because I understand this is a
majority of their income, ” said
Councilman Mark Nagales.
And councilmembers were unani-
mous in their unwillingness to estab-
lish rent control.
“I don’t believe in rent control
because one of the biggest issues we
have is affordable housing and I don’t
think that will help, ” said
Councilwoman Flor Nicolas. “So what
we have to find is a sensible solution
to this.”
City Manager Mike Futrell said he
expected the renter protection discus-
sion to return for one more study ses-
sion before any recommendation for
approval arrives before officials.
Seemingly dismayed by the limited
progress made on the matter, Addiego
suggested he felt his colleagues may
be moving too cautiously on an issue
which he considered urgent.
“This is a case of taking baby steps,
I take it,” he said.
the two sides could work together on
the project, as both agencies under-
stand the importance of the pool’s
availability to local residents.
“It motivates the school and the city
to come to a really good agreement.
And we also have to respect that an
anonymous donor put a lot of money
into this,” said Colson, referencing the
unnamed person who made a sizable
investment years ago to improve the
facility.
Colson said next steps will be decid-
ed once the school district can deter-
mine the best way it can finance its
portion of the rebuild.
“The ball is, I think, in the school
district’s court and they need to consol-
idate their thoughts and ideas at the
board level and come back to us,” she
said.
Once the discussions progress
though, she said both sides will enter
the initiative with the same intent of
rapidly rebuilding the pool.
“We share the same goal of getting
the pool back as expeditiously as pos-
sible,” she said.

Storm punishes swath of US with snow, ice and freezing
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
A winter storm that contributed to at least five deaths in
the Midwest pummeled the mid-Atlantic region for a second
day Sunday, bringing with it an icy mix that knocked out
power, cancelled flights and contributed to hundreds of car
accidents.
Virginia State Police said the driver of a military surplus
vehicle was killed late Saturday after he lost control on
Interstate 81 because of slick road conditions.
Police said Ronald W. Harris, 73, of Gainesville, Georgia,
died after his vehicle was struck by two tractor-trailers. The
two tractor-trailer drivers were taken to a hospital for injuries
that were not life-threatening. The state medical examiner
determined Sunday that Harris’ death was storm-related,
police said.
Virginia State Police said they responded to more than 300
traffic crashes and helped nearly 200 disabled vehicles in
Virginia from midnight to late Sunday afternoon.
The storm knocked out power to nearly 200,000 people in
Virginia and North Carolina at its height Sunday, according
to PowerOutage.us.
In North Carolina, Gov. Roy Cooper declared a state of
emergency Sunday to help utility crews restore electricity
more quickly after power lines fell because of freezing rain,
ice and toppled trees. The state’s western mountains and
foothills were hardest-hit along with the western Piedmont

A man shovels snow left in Washington D.C.
region and nearly 1,000 state transportation workers were
called out to clear ice and snow.
The National Weather Service reported nearly a half-inch of
ice in some sections of western North Carolina, leading to
fallen trees and power lines but other areas of the state got
mostly a cold rain or freezing precipitation.
Meanwhile, the storm caused headaches for travelers into
and out of airports in the region, including more than 250
flight cancellations Sunday at the three main airports serving
the nation’s capital. Washington’s Dulles International
Airport tweeted that the Federal Aviation Administration had
implemented a ground stop there on Sunday evening, impact-
ing both inbound and outbound flights.
For air travelers, the Dullest airport authority subsequently
tweeted tips for flying on a snow day, including frequently
checking for airline flight changes and packing “patience, a
good dose of snow humor & a packet of hot chocolate.”
By late Sunday afternoon, the Washington, D.C. metro
area, northern Virginia and parts of Maryland had total snow-
fall accumulations ranging from five to eight inches. Central
Virginia, including Richmond, had much smaller accumula-
tions — as little as one inch — but the snow was followed by
hours of sleet and freezing rain.
Marc Chenard, a meteorologist with the Weather Prediction
Center in College Park, Maryland, said parts of the region
could expect snow to continue falling into Sunday evening.
“At this point, it is just going to head out to sea once it
exits here this evening,” Chenard said.
Most public school systems in northern Virginia and
Prince George’s County schools in suburban Maryland said
classes would be cancelled Monday.
The storm also was affected parts of Maryland. In
Baltimore, a man was fatally shot as he shoveled snow early
Sunday morning. Police said a 43-year-old man was outside
shoveling at 4:40 a.m. ET when an unidentified suspect shot
him in the head and shoulder. The victim died at a hospital.
Meanwhile, Illinois was trying to dig out from under heavy
snowfall in some areas.

Woman who fled Saudi Arabia reaches her new home
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
TORONTO — Tired but smiling, an 18-year-old Saudi
woman who said she feared death if deported back home
arrived Saturday in Canada, which offered her asylum in a case
that attracted global attention after she mounted a social
media campaign.
“This is Rahaf Alqunun, a very brave new Canadian,”
Foreign Minister Chrystia Freeland said arm-in-arm with the
Saudi woman in Toronto’s airport.
Rahaf Mohammed Alqunun smiled broadly as she exited an
airport arrival door sporting a Canada zipper hoodie and a
U.N. High Commissioner for Refugees hat, capping a dra-
matic week that saw her flee her family while visiting Kuwait
and before flying to Bangkok. Once there, she barricaded her-
self in an airport hotel to avoid deportation and tweeted about
her situation.
On Friday, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced that
Canada would accept Alqunun as a refugee. Her situation has
highlighted the cause of women’s rights in Saudi Arabia,
where several women fleeing abuse by their families have
been caught trying to seek asylum abroad in recent years and
returned home.
Freeland said Alqunun preferred not to take questions
Saturday.
WORLD
“She is obviously very tired after a long journey and she
preferred to go and get settled,” Freeland said. “But it was
Rahaf’s choice to come out and say hello to Canadians. She
wanted Canadians to see that she’s here, that she’s well and
that she’s very happy to be in her new home.”
After arriving she was off to get winter clothes, said Mario
Calla, executive director of COSTI Immigrant Services,
which is helping her settle in temporary housing and apply-
ing for a health card.
Calla said Alqunun has friends in Toronto who she would be
meeting up with this weekend.
“She did comment to me about the cold,” Freeland said.
“It does get warmer,” Freeland said she told her.
Alqunun flew to Toronto via Seoul, South Korea, according
to Thai immigration Police Chief Surachate Hakparn.
Alqunun tweeted two pictures from her plane seat — one with
what appears to be a glass of wine and her passport and
another holding her passport while on the plane with the
hashtag “I did it” and the emojis showing a plane, hearts and
a wine glass.
Canada’s decision to grant her asylum could further upset
the country’s relations with Saudi Arabia.
In August, Saudi Arabia expelled Canada’s ambassador to
the kingdom and withdrew its own ambassador after Canada’s
Foreign Ministry tweeted support for women’s rights.

Italian fugitive is captured three
decades after murder conviction
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ROME — A left-wing Italian militant who was convicted
of murder in his home country nearly three decades ago was
arrested in Bolivia, authorities said Sunday, setting the
stage for a climactic end to one of Italy’s longest-running
efforts to bring a fugitive to justice.
Hours later, Cesare Battisti was handed over to Italian
custody, officials said, and he left on a
plane carrying him back to Italy to
serve a life sentence.
He was captured by Bolivian and
Italian officers in Santa Cruz de La
Sierra, where he was located by intelli-
gence agents after using one of his
mobile devices, Italian police and RAI
state television said.
Cesare Battisi The 64-year-old had lived openly in
Brazil for years and enjoyed the protec-
tion of left-wing governments on both sides of the
Atlantic. But Brazil’s outgoing president signed a decree
last month ordering his extradition, apparently sparking
Battisti’s latest effort to flee.
Italian police released a video of Battisti that they said
was taken hours before his capture, showing him seeming-
ly oblivious to surveillance cameras tracking him as he
walked casually down the street in jeans, a blue T-shirt and
sunglasses. A subsequent image showed Battisti’s mug
shot under the seal of the Bolivian police.
“Cesare Battisti’s long flight is over,” Justice Minister
Alfonso Buonafede declared, adding that he would be taken
to Rome’s Rebibbia prison as soon as he landed in Italy.
Battisti escaped from an Italian prison in 1981 while
awaiting trial on four counts of murder allegedly commit-
ted when he was a member of the Armed Proletarians for
Communism. He was convicted in absentia in 1990 and
faces a life term for the deaths of two police officers, a jew-
eler and a butcher.
He acknowledged membership in the group but denied
killing anyone and has painted himself as a political
refugee.
