San Carlos school community wants turf field

Survey shows artificial surface is desired instead of dirt playing field at Arundel Elementary School
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
A majority of the school community at Arundel Elementary

School in San Carlos would prefer
to have artificial turf laid on a barren campus playground, according
to a report going before school
district officials.
Students, teachers, parents and
others
surveyed
recently
expressed a desire to install the
artificial surface on a dirt field
where attempts to grow natural
grass have repeatedly failed.
The San Carlos Elementary
School District Board of Trustees
is set to receive a report Thursday,
Dec. 17, from a group of parents
and administrators at the school
summarizing the more than 170
responses to the survey, and

expressing their wishes for the
future of the playground.
The 11,704-square-foot field on
the northern portion of the campus is the main play area for
roughly 250 students, or more
than half of the school population.
It was built in 2010 due to concerns no grass field existed for stu-
dents to play on, but the grass did

not grow, and the area now sits as
a dry dirt patch bounded by concrete.
Poor drainage and a persistent
drought are two main reasons
grass has struggled to grow on the
field, according to a district
report, and the result is an unusable obstacle essentially inappropriate for students.
Arundel Principal Ray Dawley

surveyed the schools 22 classrooms, as well as others, for guidance on how to address the issue
and found that 67 percent of those
who responded preferred to have
artificial turf installed.
The second-most popular alternative was to replace the dirt with

Docktown resident Tania Sol is being evicted from the marina for failing to sign a lease agreement to which she
does not agree.
City sues former council candidate

Docktown resident Tania Sol refuses to sign lease agreement
By Bill Silverfarb
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Redwood City is seeking damages from former council candidate

Tania Sol for failing to vacate and
remove her houseboat from the
Docktown Marina.
The city ordered her to quit and
surrender possession of the premises to the city one last time Nov.
1, two days before the City
Council election.
She received the same 60-day
notice twice before on April 28
and May 15 but the city inadvertently continued to accept her
rent, according to a notice to

vacate the premises dated Aug. 20
sent by Aaron Aknin, the citys
assistant city manager.
The dispute with Sol started in
2013 when city officials informed
her that she would not be offered a
lease unless she removed an unauthorized sewer connection she
installed on her houseboat.
The city then unhooked her liveaboard from the citys sewer system and offered her an 11-page
Live Aboard Rental Agreement
which Sol has since refused to
sign.

U.S. seeks to return auctioned
dinosaur skull to Mongolia
NEW YORK Federal prosecutors
in New York are seeking to return a
Tyrannosaurus bataar skull to
Mongolia after an anonymous buyer
purchased it at auction in the United
States in 2007 for $276,000.
Prosecutors
filed papers
in
Manhattan federal court Wednesday to
formally secure the 32-inch-long
skull. Federal authorities say the
California buyer who purchased it
already agreed to give it up.
Manhattan prosecutors say the 67
million-year-old skull will be among
more than a dozen dinosaur skeletons
that have been returned to Mongolia
since 2012. They say other items
returned to Mongolia include a nest of
dinosaur eggs and the relics of numerous small and unidentified lizards and
turtles.
Prosecutors say the skull was unlawfully taken from the Gobi Desert in
Mongolia and was smuggled into the
United States in June 2006.

PetSmarts ugly sweaters for dogs

and cats are among our top five bestselling holiday apparel items so far
this season, said Eran Cohen, chief
customer experience officer for the pet
store. We even have ugly sweaters for
guinea pigs.
Television ushered the ugly sweater
in and out in the 1980s. Around the
turn of the century it enjoyed a
revival, starting with adults, who had
parties just to celebrate the ugliness.
Kids got in on the act and now pets
have nosed their way in, giving owners laughs and plenty to photograph.
Ugly sweater dog events across the
country this month included an ugly
sweater contest for dogs at a park in
Anaheim, California; a dog-friendly
ugly sweater 5K run and walk in
National Harbor, Maryland; and separate ugly sweater parties for big and
little dogs hosted by Chicago Party
Animals, one of the nations largest
canine clubs with 2,000 members.
You can find ready-made ugly
sweaters everywhere from 99 cent
stores to high-end stores, but theyre
an especially hot item at thrift stores
though presumably most shoppers
are buying them for people, not pets.
Our stores collect holiday sweaters
year-round, said Marla Eby, marketing and community relations director
for Goodwill Southern California.
Then we decorate them, adding ribbons, bows, and embellishments until
they are at their gaudy best.

Controller details property tax expenditures
Police reports
$1.7B raised last year, separate report reveals countys financial status
What er you doing?
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
A new report by San Mateo County

Controller Juan Raigoza details how every
penny collected in property taxes is doled
out to local agencies.
The Property Tax Highlights report
shows that of the $1.7 billion in property
taxes raised last year, 43 percent went to
schools, 26 percent to the county, 18 percent to cities, 11 percent to special districts
and 2 percent to successor agencies of former redevelopment agencies.
California schools, counties, cities and
special districts depend on property tax as a
primary source of revenue.
This was $88 million more than the prior
year, Raigoza wrote in the report.
The property tax revenue outlook for fiscal year 2015-16 continues to increase for
the fifth consecutive year. Approximately
$1.8 billion will be collected from the 1
percent general tax countywide in fiscal
year 2015-16. The increase is primarily due
to a strong real estate market, ownership
changes and new construction of offices and

apartments,
Raigoza
wrote in the report.
The report highlights
a commitment to transparency, Raigoza wrote.
Property taxes are a
significant contributor
Juan Raigoza to the financial health of
our local jurisdictions.
This document provides clarity about the
complex process from beginning to end.
Our residents and taxpayers deserve to know
where their money is being used, and we are
pleased to give them that information
through this publication, Raigoza wrote.
Last week, the Controllers Office
released a comprehensive annual financial
report (CAFR) that received a clean opinion
from independent auditors.
The CAFR contains the countys audited
financial statements, managements discussion and analysis, statistics and other
financial information.
The CAFR is a comprehensive document

that demonstrates the countys commitment
to transparency about how taxpayer money
and other funds are received and spent,
Raigoza wrote in a statement.
The CAFR is also used by financial organizations to assess the countys financial
health. San Mateo County is one of a few
California counties with an AAA/Aaa bond
rating from the credit rating agencies,
according to the Controllers Office.
The CAFRs Letter of Transmittal section
provides a summary of the countys economic and financial outlook, long-term
financial planning, relevant financial policies and major initiatives.

SAN FRANCISCO New figures show

that California added nearly 350,000 people
over a one-year period, bringing its total
population to a smidge under 39.1 million.
The Department of Finance released the
numbers Wednesday. The growth covers the
period July 1, 2014, to July 1, 2015.
California, the nations most populous
state, added 346,000 people, with most of
the growth caused by whats called a natural increase. There were 507,000 births and
245,000 deaths.
The rest comes from migration into and

out of the state, resulting in 84,000 new
people. California added about 145,000
people from other countries and lost 61,000
to other states.

growth a year. It shows the states recovery

Mistrial in first officers

trial in Freddie Gray case
By Juliet Linderman
and David Dishneau
BALTIMORE The first effort to

convict an officer in Freddie Grays
death from a broken neck in a Baltimore
Police van ended Wednesday with a
hung jury and a mistrial.
Officials appealed for calm as small
crowds protested along streets lined
with police officers. The situation was
quiet at North and Pennsylvania, the
intersection where the worst rioting
happened in April as parts of West
Baltimore were set on fire.
William Porters mistrial is a setback
for prosecutors trying to respond to a
citizenry frustrated by violent crime and
allegations of police misconduct.
Homicides have soared and the pressure
on city officials has been unrelenting
since Baltimore City States Attorney
Marilyn Mosby charged six officers in
Grays death.
About 30 protesters chanting send
those killer cops to jail outside the
courthouse switched gears after the mistrial was announced, chanting No jus-
tice, no peace! and Black Lives

Matter.
The case hinged not on what Porter
did, but what prosecutors said he didnt
do. He was accused of failing to get
medical help for a critically wounded
Gray and was charged with manslaughter, assault, misconduct in office and
reckless endangerment, carrying maximum sentences totaling 25 years.
The judge planned to discuss a possible retrial with both sides in his chambers on Thursday.
Mayor Stephanie Rawlings Blake and
the new police commissioner she
installed after last Aprils riots warned
people against more violence.
We will not, we cannot be defined by
the unrest of the spring, the mayor
said.
Protesters who are lawfully assembled have a friend in the Baltimore
Police Department, Commissioner
Kevin Davis said. Folks who choose
to commit crimes and break things and
hurt people are no longer protesters.
Mosby wouldnt comment: Gag
order, she said, smiling and shaking
her head inside the courthouse.

Sheriffs Deputy Juan Pablo Lopez and

Attorney Billy Murphy, who

obtained a $6.4 million settlement for
Grays family from the city before
Porters trial, called the mistrial a temporary bump on the road to justice.
The racially diverse jury of seven men
and five women deliberated for about 16
hours over three days. They indicated
they were deadlocked on Tuesday, but
Circuit Judge Barry Williams told them
to keep at it, even as he denied their
requests for help.
It is clear you will not come to a
unanimous agreement on any of the four
charges, the judge said Wednesday.
You have clearly been diligent.
The Baltimore NAACP asked people
to control their frustration and anger
and respect the rights of all people
respected, on all sides.
At least two activists were arrested,
including Kwame Rose, a young black
man who called the mistrial an injustice.
We are going to fight for justice
until it becomes a reality in our lives. A
mistrial means that the prosecution did
not do their jobs good enough, he
said.

OMAHA, Neb. With billionaire investor Warren

Buffett looking on, Democratic presidential candidate
Hillary Clinton said Wednesday she
wants to raise taxes on the wealthy and

pushed by the Obama administration to
raise tax rates on the richest Americans.
I want to go even further, because
Warren is 100 percent right, as usual,
Clinton said at a rally in Omaha,
Nebraska that featured a public endorseHillary Clinton ment from Buffett, the famed investor
and one of the wealthiest people in
America. I want to be the president for the struggling, the
striving and the successful.
Introducing Clinton, Buffett offered a litany of statistics
describing a growing chasm between the nations rich and
poor, lamenting, millions and millions and millions of
Americans have been left behind. Buffett was the namesake for the push by the Obama administration to seek a tax
rate of 30 percent on those earning $1 million or more.

GOP candidates fighting to

define partys foreign policy
By Julie Pace
WASHINGTON For Republicans, this weeks presidential debate highlighted a brewing fight to define the partys
foreign policy posture, exposing divisions among candidates about the U.S. role in fostering regime change in the
Middle East and tactics to prevent terror attacks at home.
The fault lines reflect a party still in flux long after
George W. Bushs unpopular Iraq war damaged Republicans
standing on international issues. While theres little
appetite among GOP candidates for the sweeping military
intervention and nation-building Bush championed, most
are wary of being pegged as isolationists, particularly
given Americans heightened fears of terrorism following
attacks in Paris and San Bernardino, California.
The fundamental debate is, well, if Bush did too much and
Obama did too little, whats the right amount of international engagement? said Richard Fontaine, a former foreign policy adviser to Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz, and current president of the Center for New American Security
think tank.

White House, lawmakers hail year-end deal on spending, taxes

By Erica Werner and Andrew Taylor
WASHINGTON The White House and

lawmakers of both parties grudgingly
embraced a massive government-wide budget
deal Wednesday combining more than a trillion dollars in year-end spending with hundreds of billions in tax cuts for businesses,
families and special interests of every kind.
Leaders planned to push it to final passage by
weeks end and quickly adjourn for the holidays, ending a tumultuous year on Capitol
Hill.
The sprawling package will keep federal
agencies funded through Sept. 30 of next
year, staving off a government shutdown that
was to begin next Tuesday at midnight under
the latest in a series of short-term spending
bills, this one passed by Congress and
signed by President Barack Obama on
Wednesday.
In divided government, you dont get
everything you want, new House Speaker
Paul Ryan said of the 2,200-page melange of
wins and losses for both parties. I think
everybody can point to something that gives

them a reason to be in favor of both of these
bills.
At the White House, press secretary Josh
Earnest sounded a similar note, saying
Obama would sign the package despite elements opposed by the administration. Those
include a GOP provision lifting the 40-yearold ban on exporting crude oil from the U.S.
and delays and suspensions of several taxes
to pay for Obamas health care law.
The president is pleased with the final
product, even if it does reflect the kind of
compromise thats necessary when you have
a Democratic president negotiating with
large majorities of Republicans, Earnest
said. Indeed, few ringing endorsements could
be heard from either side for the sprawling
package.
Despite pledges by Ryan to run a different
kind of House after his predecessor, John
Boehner, was ousted by conservatives
angered over last-minute, dead-of-night compromises with Democrats, the new GOP
speaker found himself asking lawmakers to
endorse a huge, eleventh-hour deal of his own. Speaker of the House Paul Ryan holds a news conference on Capitol Hill.

Buying a car? A home?

Fed interest rate hike
shouldnt matter much
By Christopher S. Rugaber
WASHINGTON For anyone considering whether to buy a home or car, the

Federal Reserves interest rate increase
Wednesday shouldnt make much difference.
The rates that most people pay for mortgages, auto loans or college tuition arent
expected to jump anytime soon. The Feds
benchmark interest rate has limited influence on those things.
Still, the Feds move to lift its key rate by
a quarter-percentage point will raise shortterm borrowing costs for banks. And that,
in turn, is intended to prod banks to boost
certain other rates. Rates on credit cards and
home equity loans and credit lines, for
example, will most likely rise, though
probably only slightly.
The rate the Fed controls is only one factor among many that can influence longerterm borrowing costs. And the Fed made
clear it will assess the economys health
before raising rates further.
Loans that are linked to longer-term
interest rates are unlikely to move very
much, Fed Chair Janet Yellen said at a news
conference. Credit card rates ... might
move up slightly. But remember, we have

very low rates, and weve made a very small
move.
Mortgage rates tend to move in sync with
the yield on 10-year Treasury notes. When
inflation remains as low as it is now,
Treasury notes, with their modest returns,
are considered a safe and decent investment.
And heavy purchases of Treasurys by U.S.
and foreign investors and by many foreign governments, such as China help
keep those yields low.
The demand for Treasurys has mushroomed, said Carl Tannenbaum, chief economist at Northern Trust. What that means
is that for any given monetary policy,
interest rates are still going to be lower
than they would have been 10 or 15 years
ago.
The Feds decision to raise rates is in
many ways a healthy sign: Its a vote of
confidence that the economy, 6 1/2 years
after the Great Recession officially ended,
can finally withstand higher borrowing
costs and keep growing at an acceptable
pace.
Even with a rate increase, most economists expect consumer spending to stay
heathy and solid hiring to continue, per-

haps even driving unemployment even further below its current low level of 5 percent.
Should the economy stumble, the Fed could
postpone further rate increases.
Other trends are also working in consumers favor: Gas prices are still falling,
and there are signs that paychecks are finally starting to rise after years of sluggish
growth.
These things are good for the consumer
and will easily outweigh the impact of a rate
increase, said Chris Christopher, an economist at forecasting firm IHS Global
Insight.
The most visible effects of the Fed
increases will probably be in short-term

borrowing. Rates for credit cards and home
equity lines of credit should rise, typically
by the same amount as the Feds increase.
The increases could appear as soon as one or
two months after the Feds action. Those
rates are tied to banks prime rate, which
responds quickly to the Feds changes.
Also, Americans with adjustable-rate
mortgages will probably face a higher rate
at the date of their next adjustment. Autoloan costs may rise as well, economists
said, though not as fast as the short-term
rate the Fed controls. Auto-loan rates typically follow the yield on two-year Treasurys.
Changes since the Fed last raised rates in 2006

By Paul Wiseman and Pan Pylas
WASHINGTON The housing market

looked like a casino. BlackBerrys were
ascendant. Twitter was 3 months old. Jesse
Jackson was protesting high gas prices.
Saddam Hussein was on trial. American
Idol dominated American network TV. And
cheeky Lightning McQueen from the hit
film Cars first became a toy phenomenon.
The world was a rather different place the
last time the Federal Reserve raised interest
rates. Attached are some photos taken by
photographers from the Associated Press of
what was going on in 2006, the last time
the Fed raised interest rates.
Back on June 29, 2006, the Fed raised the
short-term rate it controls from 5 percent to
5.25 percent. Even though it had raised that

rate 16 times since mid-2004, the Feds policymakers still saw some inflation risks.
At the time, only a handful of Cassandras
were warning that the economy faced risks
and that higher rates may not be such a good
idea. After all, unemployment, at 4.6 percent, was extremely low. And the Feds preferred inflation gauge had risen around 3
percent from a year earlier a bit too high
for Fed policymakers.
The month after the Fed last raised rates,
housing prices peaked and then fell into a
gut-churning drop that would last 5 1/2
years. The housing markets collapse ignited a financial panic that wiped out hundreds
of banks, very nearly toppled the financial
system and sent the American economy into
the worst recession since the 1930s.
The Fed would wait more than nine years

before raising rates again. On Wednesday,
Fed policymakers raised the short-term rate
they control to a range of 0.25 percent to
0.50 percent from between zero and 0.25
percent.
The rate hike ends an interest-rate easing
cycle that began in 2007. The Fed acted
swiftly that September to chop rates. And it
kept chopping. In December 2008, the Fed
cut its benchmark short-term rate all the
way to a record low near zero and held it
there for nearly seven years.
In the years that followed, the economy
mounted a fitful recovery, constrained by
lingering damage from the Great Recession
of 2007-2009. Unemployment peaked at 10
percent in 2009 before sliding steadily to a
seven-year low 5 percent last month.
The Fed kept a lid on interest rates, which

have remained astonishingly low by historical standards. The average rate on a 30-year
fixed-rate mortgage remains just 3.95 percent, compared with 6.7 percent in June
2006. The yield on the benchmark 10-year
Treasury note is 2.31 percent, less than half
the 5.22 percent yield in June 2006.
Despite the shrunken unemployment rate,
the job market remains scarred by recession: The percentage of Americans who
either have a job or are looking for one is
stuck near a 38-year low. One reason is that
many people have just given up out of frustration.
Inflation, a bit too high in June 2006, is
now disturbingly low up just 0.2 percent
in the year to October, nowhere near the
Feds 2 percent target.

Fed lifts key interest rate from near zero

By Martin Crutsinger
WASHINGTON The Federal

Reserve is raising interest rates
from record lows set at the depths
of the 2008 financial crisis, a
shift that heralds modestly higher
rates on some loans.
The Fed coupled its first rate
hike in nine years with a signal
that further increases will likely
be made slowly as the economy
strengthens further and inflation
rises from undesirably low levels.
The central bank said in a statement after its latest meeting that it
was lifting its key rate by a quarter-point to a range of 0.25 percent to 0.5 percent. Its move ends
an extraordinary seven-year period of near-zero borrowing rates.
But the Feds statement suggested
that rates would remain historically low well into the future, saying
it expects only gradual increases.
The Fed reaffirmed that the pace
of rate hikes would be slow,
James Marple, senior economist
at TD Economics wrote in a
research note. The Feds expectations for rate hikes next year are
set alongside a relatively cautious
and entirely achievable economic
outlook.
Wednesdays action conveys the
central banks belief that the
economy has finally regained
enough strength 6 1/2 years after
the Great Recession ended to withstand modestly higher borrowing
rates.
The Feds decision today
reflects our confidence in the U.S.
economy, Chair Janet Yellen said
at a news conference.
Stocks closed up sharply higher. The Dow Jones industrial average, which had been up modestly
before the announcement, gained
224 points, or 1.3 percent, for the
day.
The bond market didnt react
much. The yield on the 10-year
Treasury note rose slightly to
2.29 percent.

Policymakers foresee slower rate rises

By Christopher S. Rugaber
WASHINGTON Federal
Reserve policymakers have
slightly lowered their projections for short-term interest rates
over the next three years, a sign
that policymakers may move
slowly after their first rate
increase in seven years.
The Fed on Wednesday lifted its
key interest rate by a quarter
point to a range of 0.25 to 0.5
percent, up from near zero for the
first time since December 2008.
More Fed policymakers now
expect the short-term rate will be
1.38 percent or below at the end

of 2016 than in previous projections in September. And they
forecast the rate will be 2.38 percent at the end of 2017 and 3.25
percent at the end of 2018, both a
quarter-point lower than in
September, according to projections released Wednesday.
Still, the Feds forecasts for the
U.S. economy and interest rates
have proven too optimistic for
most of the recovery from the
Great Recession. A year ago, for
example, their projection for
short-term rates at the end of
2016 was nearly double what it is
now.
The projections show that Fed
officials are coalescing around an

expectation of four rate hikes
next year. Still, fewer hikes are
possible: Four officials project
there will be just two hikes, double the number in September, and
three expect three rate hikes.
Fed officials expectations for
the economy didnt change much.
They project the economy will
grow 2.4 percent next year, just a
tenth of a percentage point higher than in September. They also
foresee unemployment will fall
to 4.7 percent by the end of next
year, from its current rate of 5
percent. Thats down slightly
from the previous forecast of 4.8
percent.
term mortgages, for example, tend

to track 10-year U. S. Treasury
yields, which will likely stay low
as long as inflation does and
investors keep buying Treasurys.
But rat es o n s o me o t h er
l o an s , l i k e credi t cards an d
home equity credit lines, will
l i k el y ri s e, t h o ug h p ro b ab l y
only slightly as long as the
Feds rate hikes remain modest.

Shortly
after
the
Feds
announcement, major banks
began announcing that they were
raising their prime lending rate
from 3.25 percent to 3.50 percent.

The prime rate is a benchmark for
some types of consumer loans
such as home equity loans. Wells
Fargo was the first bank to
announce the rate hike.
Among other things, the Feds
low-interest rate policies have
helped jump-start auto sales,
which are on track to reach a
record 17.5 million this year. And
the Feds first hike may not slow
them.
Steven Szakaly, chief economist for the National Automobile
Dealers Association, says dealers
will press financing companies to
keep loan rates low. And competition for buyers will spur them to
take other steps to keep rates low,
such as cutting back on discounts
or just accepting lower profits.
The rate squeeze will happen
between the dealer and its finance
company rather than the dealer and
the consumers, Szakaly said.
Consumers wont even feel it.
For months, Yellen and other
Fed officials have said they
expected any rate hikes to be
small and gradual. But nervous
investors have been looking for
further assurances.
Yellen
indicated
that
Wednesdays rate hike was partially defensive. If rates stayed at near
zero, the Fed might not have the
tools to combat a recession.
Weve worried about the fact
that with interest rates at zero, we
have less scope to respond to negative shocks, she said at her news
conference.
When growth struggles, the Fed
often cuts rates to help increase
the amount of cash flowing
through the economy. But by
staying close to zero, the Fed
would be unable to cut rates or it
would be forced to have negative
rates for the first time in its history.
An updated economic forecast
released with the policy statement
showed that Fed officials predict
that their target for the federal
funds rate the rate that banks
charge on overnight loans will
end next year slightly above 1
percent. That is in line with the
consensus view of economists.

NEW YORK Stocks climbed

Wednesday after the Federal Reserve
raised interest rates, a long-expected
vote of confidence in the U.S. economy. At the same time investors were
encouraged that the Fed emphasized
that further increases will be gradual.
The market was slightly higher at
midday and rose steadily through the
afternoon after the Fed released its policy statement and as Fed Chair Janet
Yellen gave a news conference explaining the Feds decision.
The Dow Jones industrial average
rose 224.18 points, or 1.3 percent, to
17,749.09. The Standard & Poors 500
index added 29.66 points, or 1.5 percent, to 2,073.07. The Nasdaq composite gained 75.77 points, or 1.5 percent, to 5,071.13.
The market finished higher for the
third day in a row, something that hadnt happened in almost two months.
The S&P 500 is up 3 percent over the
last three days.
The biggest gainers were sectors
known for paying big dividends.
Utilities surged 2.6 percent, while
telecommunications and consumer
goods makers rose 2 percent. Only the
energy sector finished lower as the
price of oil dropped and natural gas
continued to fall.
Paul Christopher, head global market
strategist at Wells Fargo Investment
Institute, said investors think big dividend payers might pay even more out
to shareholders and buy back more
stock because as interest rates rise,
theyll be reluctant to spend a lot of
money on equipment.
The Federal Reserve raised its main
interest rate by a quarter of a point, a
move that was widely anticipated in the
markets. That rate had been near zero
for seven years.
For months the Fed has been suggesting it would raise borrowing costs
from their historically low levels
because the U.S. economy has
improved a great deal since the financial crisis and the Great Recession. The
S&P 500 has more than doubled since
the Federal funds rate was cut to zero in
2008. Unemployment, which peaked
at 10 percent, is now at five percent.
The Fed emphasized Wednesday that
it plans to raise interest rates slowly.
Stephen Freedman, senior investment strategist at UBS Wealth
Management Americas, said the Fed is
taking off the Band-Aid because the
economy has healed substantially.
Th ree o r fo ur h i k es n ex t y ear

extremely slow and progressive,
he said. The Fed is not going to
choke the economy.

The boost in interest rates lifted metals prices. The yield on the two-year
Treasury note also rose to its highest
level in five years.
Oil prices and energy stocks skidded
after the U.S. government said oil
stockpiles grew 4.8 million barrels
last week. The price of oil has plunged
to its lowest levels in more than six
years because supplies continued to
rise as the global economy struggles.
Benchmark U.S. crude dropped
$1.83, or 4.9 percent, to close at
$35.52 a barrel in New York. Brent
crude, a benchmark for international
oils, lost $1.26, or 3.3 percent, to
$37.19 a barrel in London. U.S. crude
had climbed over the last two days after
falling beneath $35 a barrel Monday.
Pioneer Natural Resources lost
$10.18, or 7 percent, to $134.40 and
Devon Energy dropped $1.30, or 4.1
percent, to $30.57.
Natural gas, which has dropped to
16-year-lows, lost 3.2 cents to close at
$1.79 per 1,000 cubic feet. Natural gas
has been falling as traders anticipate
weaker demand for home heating due to
the unseasonably warm winter weather
in the U.S.
The price of wholesale gasoline fell
1.2 cents to $1.233 a gallon and heating oil lost 3.5 cents, or 3 percent, to
$1.112 a gallon.
Oracles 2Q profit slips, cloud computing sales rise

REDWOOD CITY Oracle Corp.s latest

quarterly profit slipped, but the business
software maker made encouraging strides in
the increasingly important field of selling
subscriptions for applications that can be
used on any Internet-connected device.
The companys progress in online software services, a market broadly known as
cloud computing, overshadowed the signs
of distress that appeared in a financial statement released Wednesday after the stock
market closed.
The report didnt sway Wall Street, which

has driven down Oracles stock this year
amid concerns about the 38-year-old companys ability to make the transition to a cloud
computing movement that co-founder Larry
Ellison initially mocked as a passing fancy.
Oracles shares dipped 66 cents to $38.25
in extended trading. The stock is down by
about 13 percent so far this year.
Oracle earned $2.2 billion, or 51 cents,
per share, for its fiscal second quarter ending
in November. That represented a 12 percent
drop from the same time last year.

said it would have earned 63 cents per share.

That topped the average estimate of 61 cents
per share among analysts surveyed by Zacks
Investment Research.
Revenue decreased 6 percent from last year
to $9 billion about $90 million below
analyst projections. The erosion was concentrated in Oracles main business of selling software thats installed on computer
hard drives in data centers and machines that
are kept on the customers premises.
Oracles sales of new licenses for onpremise software fell 18 percent to $1.7 billion in the quarter.
The company fared much better in its

smaller cloud-computing division, which is
anchored by categories that Oracle dubs
software as a service and platform as a
service. Revenue in those categories
climbed 34 percent to $484 million during
the quarter.
Management predicted the growth rate is
going to accelerate and will exceed 50 percent in each of the next two fiscal quarters.
The Redwood City company expects to

than $1.5 billion in its fiscal year ending in

Eye on safety, state sets rules for self-driving cars

By Justin Pritchard
LOS ANGELES California regulators have unveiled a roadmap that

would let consumers begin using selfdriving cars, though manufacturers
would have to prove the emerging
technology is safe before a licensed
driver could get chauffeured around
town.
The
approach
Californias
Department of Motor Vehicles offered
Wednesday in precedent-setting draft
regulations is cautious, though it does
allow that Californians could be behind
the wheel of a self-driving car by 2017.
Among other safety-related require-
ments, the cars must have a steering

wheel, and a licensed driver must be
ready to take over if the machine fails.
Google, which is pushing to get cars
without a steering wheel or pedals to
consumers, expressed grave disappointment with the rules, which the
tech giant said would slow deployment
of technology with huge life-saving
potential.
Though no manufacturer has said it
thinks the cars are ready just yet, at
least a dozen are developing the technology. Google has suggested a model
could be ready for limited use sooner
than the public expects. In September,
the safety chief of its self-driving car
project, Ron Medford, said the technol-
ogy is close to working pretty damn

well.
Californias go-slow approach could
benefit Texas, which this summer
emerged as a competitor in the deployment of self-driving cars when officials
in the capital city of Austin welcomed
Google prototypes for company-sponsored testing.
Given the potential risks associated
with deployment of such a new technology, DMV believes that manufacturers need to obtain more experience
in testing driverless vehicles on public
roads prior to making this technology
available to the general public, the
agency said in a written summary of its
draft regulations.

New CSM coach has resume to be successful

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Since being hired as College of San Mateo

volleyball coach in July, Katie Goldhahn has
spent the last six months or so putting
together a coaching staff and hitting the
recruiting trail hard.
But there has been so much more for the former Stanford standout. Goldhahn is still about
a year away from taking the court for real for
the Bulldogs inaugural season.
I just dove right into recruiting, said
Goldhahn, who was a fouryear player at Stanford

from 2002 to 2005, and
was a member of the
Cardinals 2004 national
championship team and a
2005 team captain.
The high school season was good, but volleyKatie Goldhahn ball is recruited out of the
club season.
Goldhahn is well plugged into that scene as
well. She first started coaching club volley-
ball while a junior at Stanford and since graduating has been involved in a number of club
programs in both the Bay Area and in the
Central Valley.
Goldhahn was a 2002 graduate of Tokay
High School in Lodi.
But player acquisition and coaching is but a
small part of Goldhahns job right now. She
has to work on every aspect of putting together a new program from scratch from putting
up a team page on the schools website, to
putting together a class curriculum for the
team, as well as other programs she teaches as
part of the schools kinesiology department.

This was an opportunity to create something from the ground up. Youre not walking
into anyones (established) program. Its a
unique opportunity that doesnt come around a
lot, Goldhahn said.
And she is quickly finding out that she is
not on an island.

director) has been a huge support system for
me. Hes taken on the program as his baby and

Vets take lead for 49ers

SANTA CLARA Ahmad Brooks sees no

need for a chat with 49ers coach Jim Tomsula
after the linebackers suggestion that San
Francisco overlooked Cleveland last week
and might have been big-headed.
When you play professional sports
youve got to have a short-term memory,
Brooks said Wednesday. Cleveland was last
week. Were going to leave Cleveland in
Cleveland. ... Hopefully we can overcome
what we didnt perform good last week.

After the 24-10 loss, Brooks said the
49ers (4-9) might have looked past the
lowly Browns, who snapped a seven-game
losing streak begging the question
whether these Niners have enough leaders to
make sure such mental breakdowns dont
keep happening.
Especially in a lost season.
There are three games left, including the
10-3 Bengals visiting Levis Stadium on
Sunday trying to wrap up the AFC North
title.
San Franciscos front seven held its weekly meeting Wednesday and discussed what
went wrong, such as positioning on runs.
Last game we were out of position a lot of
the times and thats why they had so many
yards, Brooks said. It was one particular
play they had in the game where it looked
like he couldnt get through the gap but he
squirted through the gap somehow, some
way. It was just little things like that we need
to correct.

Klays 27-point third quarter leads Warriors past Suns

By Janie McCauley
OAKLAND Klay Thompson scored 27

of his season-high 43 points in the third
quarter and the Golden State Warriors
responded after their first loss following a
record 24-0 start by beating the Phoenix
Suns 128-103 on Wednesday night.
Stephen Curry added 25 points on 10-of-14
shooting and seven assists as Golden State
returned home from its two-week road trip
that ended with its lone defeat, 108-95 on
Saturday at Milwaukee.
That also ended a 28-game
overall winning streak by
the Warriors, secondlongest in NBA history.
Draymond Green had 16
points, 11 rebounds and 10
assists for his fourth tripledouble this season, while
Klay Thompson Thompson hit 15-of-22
shots and 8-of-13 3-pointers in his first 40-point game this season.
Mirza Teletovic scored 24 points off the
bench for the Suns, whose poor showing

sent the sellout crowd to the exits midway
through the fourth.
Thompsons big quarter was reminiscent of
his NBA-record, 37-point outburst in the third
quarter of a career-high, 52-point performance
on Jan. 23. He helped the Warriors turn the
game into a rout with a remarkable 67-23 run,
making 9 of 11 shots in the third and 4 of 6 3s.
Golden States 46-point third quarter is the
largest in any quarter in the NBA this season.
With the starters resting down the stretch,
the Warriors just missed a new largest win
ever against the Suns Golden State had a

133-103 victory on March 18, 1975.
In the teams first game at Oracle Arena in
18 days, Golden State warmed up with a big
run stretching from the second quarter to the
third. The Warriors used a 58-19 run over
14:01 to turn a 42-38 deficit with 5 minutes
left in the first half into a 96-61 advantage.
Golden State won its eighth in a row at
home against Phoenix, fifth straight overall and 13th in 16. The Suns sit in third
place in the Pacific Division behind Golden
State and the Clippers.

Macho Camacho bound for Hall of Fame

By John Kekis
CANASTOTA, N.Y. In his heyday in the ring, there was nobody

quite like Hector Camacho. Now,
three years after his untimely death,
the Macho man has reached the
pinnacle of his sport.
Camacho, who overcame the
mean streets of Spanish Harlem to
become a three-division champion,
was among a group of nine
inductees announced Wednesday for
enshrinement in the International
Boxing Hall of Fame.
There has not been, nor will
there be, another Hector Macho
Camacho in the history of the sport
of boxing. He was unique, said
Paco Valcarcel, president of the
World Boxing Organization and a
good friend of the late fighter.
He was cocky, full of charisma.
People loved him or hated him, but
everybody wanted to see him,
Valcarcel said.
Camacho, who was shot and
killed three years ago at age 50 in
his native Puerto Rico, heads the
class of 2016, which also includes
two-division champions Lupe
Pintor of Mexico and Hilario
Zapata of Panama.
Picked in the non-participant and
observer categories were: Harold
Lederman, a judge for over 30 years;
sports columnist Jerry Izenberg of
the Newark Star-Ledger; Marc
Ratner, executive director of the
Nevada State Athletic Commission
for 14 years; and Col. Bob
Sheridan, an international television broadcaster since 1973.
Inductees were selected by the
Boxing Writers Association and a
panel of international boxing historians.
Born in Bayamon, Puerto Rico,
in 1962, Camacho moved three
years later with his mother to New
York City after his parents separated. Seemingly always in trouble
and fighting in the crime-ridden
streets of Spanish Harlem,
Camacho learned to box when he

posthumously to the International Boxing Hall of Fame Wednesday.
was 11 and quickly became a star,
winning three New York Golden
Gloves titles and fashioning a 96-4
amateur record before turning pro in
1980.
Camacho captured the WBC super
featherweight title in 1983 with a
fifth-round knockout of Rafael
Limon, added a second title with a
12-round unanimous decision over
Jose Luis Ramirez in 1985 for the
WBC lightweight belt, and made
successful title defenses against
Edwin Rosario and Cornelius BozaEdwards. He became a three-division champ with a 12-round, split
decision win over Ray Mancini for
the WBO junior welterweight title
in 1989.
His lightning-quick hand speed,

devastating combinations, and the
accuracy of his punches defined
Camacho inside the ropes he
won his first 38 pro fights before
losing a split decision to Greg
Haugen in 1991 as did his flamboyant style. Few boxers grabbed
more attention in the 1980s and
1990s.
Known for his hairdo, which featured a spit curl over his forehead,
Camacho always displayed a big
dose of brashness and wit, and when
it was fight time he dazzled with
outrageous outfits. Whether clad as
a bullfighter or firefighter, gladiator or American Indian, Camacho
was the center of attention when he
entered the ring and went into his

routine, throwing flurries of punches while backpedaling.
Everybody knew when it was
Macho time.
This is something Ive done all
my life, you know? Camacho told
The Associated Press in 2010
before retiring that year with a
record of 79-6-3, with 38 knockouts. A couple years back, when I
was doing it, I was still enjoying it.
The competition, to see myself perform.
Camacho, who fought drug and
alcohol problems for years, was
shot in the left side of the face in
November 2012 as he sat in a Ford
Mustang with a friend outside a bar
in his hometown. He died four days
later after being taken off life support and is buried at St. Raymonds
Cemetery in the Bronx.
I know Macho would be very
happy, Valcarcel said. He was outspoken, cocky. He was a character.
Expect the unexpected.
Pintor, who was born in 1955,
turned pro in 1974 and worked his
way up the bantamweight ranks,
scoring a 15-round split decision
over Carlos Zarate for the WBC title
in 1979. He had eight successful
defenses, then vacated his title to
pursue another. In 1985, Pintor
scored a 12-round decision over
Juan Meza for the WBC super bantamweight belt. He retired in 1995
with a pro record of 56-14-2, with
42 knockouts.
Zapata was born in 1958 in
Panama City, Panama and began
boxing as an amateur in 1974
before making his professional
debut in 1977. At 5-foot-7 unusually tall for a 108-pound boxer,
Zapata, a southpaw, captured the
WBC light flyweight title in 1980
in a 15-round decision against
defending world champion Shigeo
Nakajima. Zapata also won the
vacant WBA flyweight crown from
Alonzo Gonzalez in 1985 and made
five successful defenses. He retired
with a pro record of 43-10-1, with
15 knockouts.
Nava signs with Angels

STAFF AND WIRE REPORT
ANAHEIM Outfielder Daniel

Nava has agreed to a one-year deal
with the Angels, it was announced
Wednesday.
Nava batted .152 in 29 games
with Boston last season before the
Red Sox waived him. He batted
.233 in 31 games with Tampa Bay
after the Rays claimed him off
waivers.
The switch-hitter is a career .265
hitter with 24 homers in parts of
five major league seasons spent
mostly with Boston.
Nava is a Santa Clara University
graduate, transferring there after
two seasons at College of San
Mateo.
With the Bulldogs from 200405, Nava batted for a career .403
batting average with 10 home runs
and 81 RBIs, leading CSM to
back-to-back conference titles.
In 2006, he transfered to Santa
Clara, where he won the West
Coast Conference batting crown
with a .395 batting average.
Despite his collegiate success,
he went undrafted out of Santa
Clara and turned to the independent
baseball ranks, signing with the
Chico Bandits of the Golden
League.
With the Bandits, Nava won the
Golden League batting title with a
.371 batting average and led Chico
to a league championship
defeating the Long Beach Armada,
managed by former
San
Francisco
Giants infielder
Darrell Evans,
in the championship series.
Nava went on
to have his conDaniel Nava tract purchsed
by the Boston
Red Sox for $1. The Redwood City
native rewarded the Red Sox with
major league service from 201015, including a landmark big
league debut on June 12, 2014 at
Fenway Park when he became just
the second player in history to hit
a grand slam on the first pitch he
saw in the Majors.
Will Middlebrooks was the first
player to hit a grand slam on his
first big league pitch, doing so on
May 6, 2012, also at Fenway Park.
After being released by the Red
Sox last year, he signed with the
Tampa Bay Rays. The Angels will
mark the third franchise for which
he has played in the Major
Leagues.
Nava could contend for a platoon role in left field for the
Angels with Craig Gentry next
year. The Angels have failed to
land a star outfielder to start alongside Mike Trout and Kole Calhoun.
The Angels yet to sign a bigname free agent. Its biggest move
is a trade for third baseman Yunel
Escobar.

Legislators ask if fantasy

betting is skill or chance
By Juliet Williams
SACRAMENTO Purveyors of
daily fantasy sports gaming made
their pitch for minimal regulations for the fast-growing industry
before a panel of California lawmakers on Wednesday, arguing
that the online sports matchups
are a harmless outlet for fans and
purely based on skill, not chance.
These are games of skill, skill that
rewards knowledge of sports, said
Griffin Finan, an attorney for
DraftKings, one of the nations two
largest operators, along with
FanDuel. Griffin said that unlike gambling, the games rely on entry fees
rather than wagers, and customers are
not pitted against one another.
Whether the games rely upon
skill or chance is key to the next
regulatory steps. If they are based
upon skill, lawmakers can impose
regulations from requiring registrations about transparency in
operations to imposing taxes. If
they are determined to be games of
chance, lawmakers cannot intervene, but its unclear if the leagues
could continue operating.

The Chicago White Sox maneuvered a three-team trade Wednesday

Cincinnati got infielders Brandon
Dixon and Jose Peraza and outfielder
Scott Schebler from the Dodgers.
In December 2014, it was erroneously reported by ESPN's
SportsCenter Trayce Thompson had
been traded to the Oakland A's in a
package deal with Marcus Semien for
All-Star
right-hander
Jeff
Samardzija. While the Semien-forSamardzija deal was made some days
later, Trayce Thompson was not actually included in the trade package.
Now, Trayce Thompson is headed
to Los Angeles in exchange for
another All-Star in Frazier.
The 29-year-old Frazier, who won
last summer's All-Star Home Run
Derby in Cincinnati, was an NL AllStar in each of the last two seasons
and hit .255 this year with 43 doubles, 35 homers and 89 RBIs.
Frazier has a $7.5 million salary
next year and can become a free agent
after the 2017 season.
The move gives the White Sox a
run producer and solid defensive third
baseman who had grown into a clubhouse leader in Cincinnati. Frazier
had in many ways become the face of
Cincinnati's franchise - even more
popular than Joey Votto - after he
won the home run derby so dramatically in July.
It turned out to be the best moment
in Cincinnati's disappointing season that ended in a 64-98 record and
prompted the Reds to star a full-scale
rebuilding. They dealt starting pitchers Johnny Cueto and Mike Leake in
July, leaving them with an all-rookie rotation. They had a deal in place
to ship closer Aroldis Chapman to
the Dodgers this month before an
offseason domestic dispute became
public, putting the deal on hold.

Big game propels Raiders Mack into NFL sack lead

By Josh Dubow
ALAMEDA The sacks that had eluded

Khalil Mack in a strong season for the
Oakland Raiders are no longer missing.
Theyre coming in bunches instead.
Mack had a franchise record-tying five
sacks in last weeks upset win in Denver in a
dominant performance to cap an impressive
three-game stretch that has displayed all of
Macks abilities.
The strength to overpower tackles who outweigh him by more than 50 pounds, the speed
to get around those lumbering blockers and
the developing repertoire of moves that help
him get to the quarterback have made Mack
one of the most feared defenders in just his
second year in the league.
Hard work pays off, Mack said
Wednesday. You go out and you work on your
craft every day and every week, so when you
see it working on the stat sheet, its pretty
cool to see.
With nine sacks in the past three games,
Mack has moved into the NFL lead with 14 on
the season and is two shy of tying Derrick
Burgess franchise record set in 2005. This
recent barrage has come after fellow pass rusher Aldon Smith was suspended, which should
have helped offenses focus on Mack.
But with the more refined pass rushing
moves to add to his impressive physical traits
and the freedom to line up in different spots,
Mack has become a menace to opposing
teams after recording just four sacks last year
as a rookie.
Hes just really understanding what he can
do, teammate Charles Woodson said. He can
go out there and he has the ability to get
around guys or go through them. Hes really
just figuring out he can do that pretty much at
his will. Thats bad for opposing offensive
lines.
While he provided constant pressure and
was stout against the run as a rookie, the lack
of sacks bothered Mack and changing that was

a major focus for this season.
Now he is the total package. To go along
with all the sacks, Mack also has 52 quarterback knockdowns and hurries, according to
STATS, tied for third most in the league. He
also ranks in the top 20 in run tackles behind
the line of scrimmage, showing the all-around
versatility that has made him a building block
for the improving Raiders (6-7).
Hes spending more time going forward
this year. I think that helps, coach Jack Del
Rio said. I think hes had more time just
refining the skill level necessary to rush the
quarterback at the highest level.
Mack took over the game in Denver in the
second half, taking advantage of mismatches
against tackles Michael Schofield and Ryan
Harris. It started when he brought down Brock
Osweiler for a 10-yard loss to force a punt on
Denvers first possession of the third quarter.
He added a strip sack for a safety later in the
third quarter and then three more sacks in the
fourth quarter to thwart Denvers comeback
attempt. He even added a tackle behind the
line in the run game to show that he is more
than a one-dimensional pass rusher.
Im big on the NFL Draft, so Ive always
watched the NFL Draft and I remember when he
came out, I was watching him and different
things like that, Denver linebacker Brandon
Marshall said. I remember thinking, OK,
this guy can do something. But, I was watching on the sideline and thinking, Man, this
guy is an animal. He definitely had a game, I
would say that, a career game for sure.
Despite playing college ball at Buffalo,
Mack impressed enough to go fifth overall in
the 2014 draft. But he wasnt the first pass
rusher taken, going four spots after the more
heralded Jadeveon Clowney went first overall
to Houston.
But Mack had more sacks in one half last
week than Clowney has in his entire career
and figures to get plenty more the way things
have gone of late.

Abby Wambach: The moments that make up a stellar career

By Anne M. Peterson
was a header off a corner from Rapinoe.

Im just so proud of her, Hamm told The
Associated Press afterward. Just watching
those four goals, thats what she is all
about. She fights for the ball, shes courageous and she never gives up. Her strength
and perseverance is what makes her so great
and its what defenders and opposing teams
fear.
Abby Wambach made her debut with the

U.S. national team in 2001 at the age of 21.
One-hundred and eighty-five goals later,
Wambach plays her final match with the
national team in New Orleans on Wednesday
night. Now 35, she has scored more goals
than anyone male or female in international play.
Seventy-seven of those goals came on
headers.
She has appeared in 255 international
matches over the 14-year span of her career.
This summer she played for the U.S. team
that won the World Cup.
World Cup win

Wambach saw her role with the U.S. team
change this summer during the Womens
World Cup, coming off the bench as a sub in
a number of games. Heading into the tournament, she said it would be her last but she
wanted nothing more than to step away with
the sports biggest trophy.
She got her wish. The United State defeated Japan 5-2 in the final.
I would give up all my individual awards
for what we just did tonight and its the
truth, she said in the moments afterward.
Its the wholehearted truth.
World Cup debut

Wambach played in her first World Cup in
2003, when the SARS outbreak in China
brought the tournament to the United
States. She scored in the Americans 1-0
victory over Norway in the quarterfinals,
but the United States would ultimately fall
to Germany in the semifinals and claim
third place.
After a storied soccer career, Abby Wambach will play her final match with the U.S. national
team Wednesday in New Orleans. Wambach has appeared in 255 international matches.

Using her head
At the Olympics in Athens, Wambach

scored the overtime game-winner against
Brazil in the gold medal match. It was a
header (naturally) off a corner kick from
Kristine Lilly. Wambach scored four goals
in the tournament, something no other
American had done before in an Olympics.
But she didnt just get a medal. Wambach
had 31 goals and 13 assists in 30 matches
for the national team, earning her U.S.
player of the year honors. She went on to
win the award five more times.
Wambachs most famous goal came

against Brazil in the quarterfinals at the
2011 World Cup. It was a header off a cross
from Megan Rapinoe in the 122nd minute,
tying the match at 2-all. The Americans
would defeat Brazil on penalty kicks, but
fall on PKs to Japan in the title match.

Wambach played 72

former head man Dana Taylor.
Bucchere has a history with the Dragons
Major League Soccer affiliate San Jose
Earthquakes. Bucchere was a former assistant coach with the Earthquakes Academy
team from 2013 to 2015, guiding the U16

or a general manager, he said.

California lawmakers are the latest to
wade into the issue, which sprang to public
attention after an onslaught of advertising
at the start of the NFL season last
September.
Nevada regulators declared the bets illegal
gambling and ordered the sites out of the
state unless they acquire gambling licenses;
New Yorks attorney general this week
ordered DraftKings and Fan Duel to stop
operating, but the companies won a temporary reprieve allowing them to continue
operating through January.
Assemblyman Adam Gray, D-Merced, who
led Wednesdays hearing, has proposed legislation that would require league operators
to be licensed by the state Department of
Justice.
Representatives said they are eager to
work with lawmakers. We would welcome a
regulatory environment that holds all daily
fantasy sports companies to the high standards to which we hold ourselves, Finan
said.

McGregor warned about

moving up weight classes
By Greg Beacham
LOS ANGELES UFC featherweight

champion
Conor
McGregor has vowed to move up
in weight soon to fight for the
lightweight title.
The two men he could face for
that belt are both warning him to
pick on somebody his own size.
UFC lightweight champion
Rafael Dos Anjos faces Donald
Cowboy Cerrone on Saturday
night in a title fight in Orlando.
UFC President Dana White says the
winners next bout will be against
McGregor if the popular Irish
champion decides to move up from
145 to 155 pounds.
Dos Anjos and Cerrone dislike
each other, but they agree
McGregors fists wouldnt pack
quite so much punch in the larger
weight class.
He gets a lot
of hype, and hes
a good fighter,
Dos Anjos said.
But if he comes
to the lightweight division,
hes going to get
hurt.
Conor
M c Gr e g o r
McGregor
ended featherweight champion Jose Aldos 10year, 18-fight winning streak last
Saturday with a stunning knockout just 13 seconds into their title
fight at UFC 194 in Las Vegas.
Afterward, McGregor repeated his
intention to become a simultaneous two-belt champion, although
he isnt sure when he will try it.
McGregors celebrity has grown
past every UFC fighter except
Ronda Rousey.
Midwestern volleyball in NCAA semifinal spotlight

By Eric Olson
OMAHA, Neb. It will be a celebration

of Midwestern volleyball in the NCAA
semifinals on Thursday night at the sold-out
CenturyLink Center.
For the first time in the national tournaments 35 years, there are no teams from the
West Coast or Hawaii in the final four.
Big Ten champion Minnesota (30-4)
meets Big 12 champ Texas (29-2) in the
first semifinal. Nebraska (30-4), playing
50 miles from its Lincoln campus, faces
Kansas (30-2) in the second semifinal. The
title match is Saturday.
Way back, Nebraska and Texas kind of

opened the door, and then Penn State, that it
was a non-West Coast championship,
Nebraska coach John Cook said. Now
youre seeing teams like BYU, Kansas that
are breaking the doors down in regard to
anybody can get into this final four and this
NCAA championship. Youre seeing great
balance across the country.
Texas has won two national titles,
Nebraska has won three and Penn State won
six of the last eight. The paths to those
championships often went through teams
from the West. The rising level of play
across the country shows up on the semifinalists 16-player rosters. Texas has 11
homegrown players, Minnesota has nine,

Nebraska has seven and Kansas has six, and

many of the other players are from neighboring states.
When I got to Texas in 2000, the state
wasnt very hot, and now its arguably one
of the best states, Longhorns coach Jerritt
Elliott said. California was the hottest
state. Now you look at the Midwest in terms
of how many great players are coming out
of there.
Minnesota has won four of seven all-time
matches against Texas, and the teams split
the most recent meetings in 2012. The
Gophers made the semifinals for the fourth
time since 2003 after missing the tournament last year for the first time since 1998.
Everyone in this group kind of under-
stood what hard work needed to be put in for

us to reach the goals that we needed, that we
wanted, Big Ten player of the year Daly
Santana said. All of us made that decision,
I guess, to be the team that we wanted to be
this year.
Kansas is the biggest surprise, advancing
as the No. 9 seed after knocking off No. 1
Southern California in a thrilling five-set
regional final in San Diego.
The Cornhuskers and Kansas havent met
since 2010, the year before Nebraska moved
from the Big 12 to the Big Ten. Nebraska is
86-0-1 against the Jayhawks, with that tie
coming in a two-set match in 1977, and the
Huskers will have an overwhelming homecourt advantage.

Its been a tough year for
surfer Mick Fanning
SYDNEY Mick Fanning, who
survived a shark attack in South
Africa in July, decided to keep competing at the Pipeline Masters in
Hawaii to pursue his fourth world
surfing title despite learning of the
death of his brother on Wednesday.
Before entering the water for competition, Fanning was told his 43year-old brother, Peter, had died
back in Australia.
Fanning, 34, says its kind of
heavy to talk about right now. He
won his next two heats to reach the
quarterfinals.
No cause of death was given for
Peter Fanning. Another brother,
Sean, was killed in a car accident in
1998.
A YouTube video of Mick Fanning
fighting off a shark while competing at the J-Bay Open at Jeffreys
Bay, South Africa, has been viewed
more than 22 million times.
Peyton Manning
returns to practice
ENGLEWOOD, Colo. Peyton
Manning is practicing for the first
time in 32 days. Hes not preparing
to start this weekend, however. That
job still belongs to Brock Osweiler.
Manning is returning from a torn
plantar fascia in his left foot that
has sidelined him for a month.
He threw tight spirals without any
apparent difficulty or pain during
the brief media viewing period
Wednesday.
Osweiler has gone 3-1 in
Mannings place. The only loss
came last week at home to Oakland
even though Osweiler completed a
career-best 35 passes and posted his
first 300-yard passing game.

Bill aimed at stripping scholarships of striking college athletes pulled

By Jim Suhr
THE ASSOCIATED SPORTS
KANSAS CITY, Mo A Missouri lawmaker withdrew a bill Wednesday that

sought to strip scholarships from college
athletes who refuse to play for reasons unrelated to health, saying he merely sought to
spark dialogue about an extremely important topic.
Republican state Rep. Rick Brattin proposed the bill Friday in response to last
months threat by University of Missouri
football players not to play unless the
school addressed complaints about racial
issues on its main campus. The threat was
seen as instrumental in forcing change,
including the Nov. 9 resignations of the
university systems president and the chan-
cellor of its main campus in Columbia.

The bill sparked a social media backlash,
with critics saying it would rob athletes of
their free-speech rights by holding their
scholarships hostage.
The proposal called for revoking the
scholarships of any athlete who calls,
incites, supports or participates in any
strike. It also would have required colleges
to fine members of coaching staffs for
encouraging or enabling such student
protests. Missouris football coach, Gary
Pinkel, publicly supported the players
stance. He stepped down days after the
administrators resigned, saying he had been
diagnosed with cancer.
In a statement Wednesday, Brattin said the
issue athletes and social activism that
could affect their responsibilities under an
49ERS
San Francisco is clearly still finding its leaders in a locker room missing the presence of retired defensive stars
Patrick Willis and Justin Smith and franchise rushing leader
Frank Gore, who left for the Colts.
Well, I think were in the process of that, Tomsula said.
Theres a core of young guys that youre really excited
about. We keep talking about them, that you see that in them
and its growing. And, I think that is what we are in the
process of building. If theres something were building,
thats what were building. Those guys, those people. And,
thats why I have a lot of faith in the locker room. I do.
Theres the right mentality and the right people.
Center Daniel Kilgore is calling for faster starts by everybody, from the first whistle.
That means every player taking it upon himself to be prepared every play.
We dont put all this work in in the week and just go out
there and lay an egg, Kilgore said. This is the NFL. Youre
a grown man, get yourself ready to go, handle your stuff on
and off the field.
Quarterback Blaine Gabbert is ready to take on more of a
athletic scholarship deserves deliberate

consideration.
While I am withdrawing the legislation,
I hope the conversation will continue so
that we can take steps to ensure the
University of Missouri is providing a stable, positive learning environment for our
young people, Brattin said. I sincerely
believe students should be able to express
their viewpoints, but I also believe our flagship state university has to keep and maintain the order that is expected from such an
esteemed educational institution.
Brattin did not respond to Associated
Press telephone requests Wednesday for an
interview.
State Rep. Brandon Ellington, a Kansas
City Democrat who chairs the legislative
black caucus, had claimed Brattins measure
leadership load. Regardless of having a flat game or not,

the quarterbacks always in a position of leadership and its
my job to rally the troops, he said. Its my job to provide
that spark and that juice to this football team, and thats
what Im going to do this week. The guys are coming in,
theyre eager, and like I said, I take it upon myself to provide
a spark for this team.
An offensive line that contributed to nine sacks on
Gabbert against the Browns has lost left guard Alex Boone,
likely for the remainder of the season. While an MRI exam
Monday showed a sprained medial collateral ligament in his
right knee, he must use crutches for up to two weeks. He is

This unconstitutional legislation never

FBI: California shooters
privately discussed commitment to jihad
NEW YORK The husband-and-wife team who killed 14
people and wounded 21 others this month in San
Bernardino, California, communicated privately about
jihad and martyrdom before they were married, but there is
no evidence to suggest the couple revealed those thoughts
publicly on social media, the FBI director said Wednesday.
We can see from our investigation that in late 2013,
before there is a physical meeting of these two people
resulting in their engagement and then their journey to the
United States, theyre communicating online, showing
signs in their communication of their joint commitment to
jihad and to martyrdom, James Comey said after a New
York conference involving the citys police department and
private businesses.
Comey said those messages between Syed Rizwan Farook
and Tashfeen Malik were direct, private messages.
So far, in this investigation we have found no evidence
of posting on social media by either of them at that period
in time and thereafter reflecting their commitment to jihad
or to martyrdom, he said.
Comey appeared to be referring to media reports suggesting that Malik had spoken openly on social media about
jihad and that background checks had not detected those
comments.
Navy to award Purple

Hearts to Chattanooga victims
NASHVILLE, Tenn. After determining a shooting at a
Chattanooga reserve center this summer was inspired by
foreign terrorists, the Navy will award the Purple Heart to
the four Marines and one sailor who were killed and the one
Marine who was injured there.
U.S. Navy Secretary Ray Mabus announced the decision
Wednesday in a news release. He said the finding that the
shooting was terrorist-inspired came after an extensive
investigation by the FBI and Naval Criminal Investigation
Service.
This determination allows the Department of the Navy
to move forward immediately with the award of the Purple
Heart to the families of the five heroes who were victims of
this terrorist attack, as well as to the surviving hero, Sgt.
Cheeley, Mabus statement reads.
The FBI earlier labeled shooter Muhammad Abdulazeez, a
naturalized U.S. citizen, a homegrown violent extremist but
declined to say what might have motivated him. His family
said he had problems with drugs and depression that prevented him from holding on to a job. He was also in debt,
and considering bankruptcy at 24.

Newspaper: Defense secretary

used personal email at Pentagon
WASHINGTON The Pentagon

acknowledged
Wednesday
that
Defense Secretary Ash Carter used a
personal email account to do some of
his government business during his
first months on the job.
Carters press secretary, Peter
Cook, released a statement saying
Carter believes his use of personal
email for work-related business was a
mistake. Cook declined to say
whether it was a violation of
Pentagon email policies. Cook said
Carter stopped the practice, but Cook
did not say when.
The Pentagon statement was in
response to a report published late
Wednesday by The New York Times.
The newspaper reported it had
obtained 72 work-related emails that
Carter sent or received from his per-
Ash Carter
sonal
email
account.
Hillary Clinton
came under heavy
criticism when it
was revealed in
March that she had
used a personal
email account as
secretary of state.
Carter took office
in February.
After reviewing his email practices
earlier this year, the secretary believes
that his previous, occasional use of
personal email for work-related business, even for routine administrative
issues and backed up to his official
account, was a mistake, Cook wrote.
As a result, he stopped such use of his
personal email and further limited his
use of email altogether.
The Times said the emails it
received under the Freedom of

Information Act were exchanges
between Carter and Eric Fanning, who
was his chief of staff at the time and is
now the acting secretary of the Army.
The emails were on a variety of
work-related topics, the Times said,
including speeches, meetings and
news media appearances. In one such
email, Carter discussed how he had
mistakenly placed a note card in a
burn bag, the Times reported. Such
bags are typically used to destroy
classified documents.
Cook said Carter does not use his
personal email or official email for
classified material. The Secretary has
a secure communications team that
handles his classified information
and provides it to him as necessary.
Carter takes his responsibilities
with regard to classified material very
seriously, Cook said.
School threats prompt proposals for tougher penalties

HARTFORD, Conn. Taking a

harder line on crimes no longer seen as
juvenile pranks, state lawmakers
around the U.S. are proposing stiffer
penalties for people who threaten
schools at a time of fears over terrorism and mass shootings.
As demonstrated by Tuesdays shutdown of Los Angeles schools, threats
can cause large, costly disruptions and
traumatize students even in cases that
might involve hoaxes.
While most states already have laws
that allow prosecution of a school
threat as a felony, there have proposals across the U.S. to increase punishments, said Michael Dorn, executive
director of the school safety nonprofit

group Safe Havens International.
These things keep happening, and
theyre happening too often, said
Wisconsin state Rep. Ed Brooks, a
Republican. This isnt childs play
anymore. This is serious stuff. Every
threat is real until its disproved.
Theres a high level of anxiety.
Brooks has proposed legislation that
would make a public death threat a medium-grade felony, with more severe consequences if anybody is hurt during an
evacuation. He submitted the proposal
after hearing from a police chief about a
case in which a threat on Facebook led
to school evacuations but the suspect
could not be charged with anything
more serious than disorderly conduct.
Threats can be especially jarring in

areas left jittery by recent attacks,
such as Southern California, where an
attack killed 14 people at a holiday
luncheon two weeks ago in San
Bernardino. The source of the threat
that led Los Angeles to cancel classes
Tuesday remains unknown, but the districts response reflected lingering
unease over terrorism.
In Connecticut, state Sen. Tony
Hwang said Tuesday that he intends to
reintroduce a bill that would that would
beef up the states threatening laws,
making them more serious felonies.

Designing with tile: Ancient craft gets new life

By Katherine Roth
Tile was an important element in interior design in many parts of the world for
thousands of years, coveted for its aesthetic possibilities, functionality and
longevity.
Yet for a generation, the craft has been
largely unexplored, relegated mainly to
bathrooms and rooftops, say the authors
of a new book.
Its been untapped and underappreciated, but thats changing very quickly, says
Catherine Bailey, who, with her husband,
Robin Petravic, owns California-based
Heath Ceramics. The couple won a 2015
Cooper Hewitt National Design Award for
their work encouraging creativity at Heath
while remaining true to the companys
over-60-year history.
They have written Tile Makes the
Room: Good Design from Heath Ceramics
(released last month by Ten Speed Press).
The book is full of lush photos and practical advice about incorporating artisanal
tile in interiors. The goal is to make
designing with tile accessible to the uninitiated.
Heath and other small ceramics studios
are leading a resurgence of tile in home
design. An expanded range of colors, textures, patterns and prices have made
the medium more adaptable and accessible.
Feras Irikat, design and marketing director for Lunada Bay Tile, a Los Angelesbased firm offering Japanese-inspired
tiles, including some made with recycled
glass, said, Before the 70s, tile was
everywhere, like permanent jewelry for
your home. It slowed down a lot after that
and became very boring. But it has started
catching on again, and there are more and
more small companies putting their hearts
and souls into it and doing really interesting things.
Bailey says a lot of designers are finally rediscovering the incredible depth and
range tile offers.
She and Petravic took over the
Sausalito-based Heath Ceramics in 2003.
The company, founded in 1948, was
famous for tableware and tiles, and kept a
close link between craft and factory production.
Tile Makes the Room begins by looking at the couples 1890s Sausalito home,
and Heaths factories in Sausalito and San
Francisco.
We dont think of Heath as making tile
so much as making objects that contribute
to something
bigger, like
arch i t ect ure
or interiors,
they write.
Tile, when
combined
with textile,
wood
and
glass,
can
create a sense
of
permanence, timelessness, color and texture, and contribute
to a cohesive overall design, they say. The
book includes many kinds of tiles and
architectural styles in interiors and a few
exteriors.
In chef Alice Waters Berkeley kitchen,
for instance, earthy green tiles surround a
beast of a gas range, framing the copper
pots and teakettle and providing a warm
backdrop for a concrete counter.
In a small Tokyo home, handmade tile Heath and other small ceramics studios are leading a resurgence of tile in home design. An

ing, gives the feeling of rippling water
meandering peacefully through the home.
Elsewhere, tiles give spaces a clean and
contemporary feel. A Heath design featuring cubes in gray-blues and reds adds depth
and character to a study wall, and in a garden in Sao Paulo, Brazil, graphic tiles with
an undulating design in blue and white
(designed by
the Athos
Bulcao
Foundation) add a fluid, modernist touch.
Even in all-white rooms, varying types
of tile bring a sense of timelessness and
depth.
The study of white tiles ... acts as a canvas for the materials qualities, the
authors write. The inherent variation in
artisanal tile creates an installation that
feels warm, soft and homey because of
reflected light, surface finish and texture,
as opposed to the antiseptic feeling of
white tile in airport bathrooms or commercial kitchens.
All white tile is not the same, and if you
get that, youve come a long way,
explains Petravic.
The book ends by explaining the
process of tile making. It considers the
main types of ceramic tile: earthenware,
porcelain and stoneware. There are also
concrete tiles. The reader is taken through
the process of forming, finishing, firing
and, finally, installing tiles to maximum
effect.

Fake and real crocuses put on an autumn show

By Lee Reich
Autumn crocus is worth planting if only to startle your

neighbors. When they ask why your crocuses are blooming
this time of year, just smile and say that perhaps spring has
come early in your garden.
A bed of autumn crocus does more than just startle, of
course; it also paints the fall landscape in soft swatches of
lavender, pink or white blossoms.
Had you so desired, that paint job could have begun as far
back as August. Not such a bad idea, because many flower
gardens temporarily sulk in August, waiting to revive in the
moist coolness of autumn.
FIRST, THE FAKE CROCUSES
If you have trouble finding these bulbs locally, buy from mail-order firms. Depending on when you actually get bulbs in hand,
you might find autumn crocuses blooming in their packaging.
ALL ELECTRIC SERVICE

FOR ALL YOUR ELECTRICAL NEEDS
Many of those late summer crocus blooms come from a

bulb called colchicum, which is not really a crocus at all. Its
blossoms do look like those of crocuses crocuses on
steroids. And thats the size blossom it might take to catch
our eyes after a summer of flowers.
The bulbs are pricey, but dont let that you scare you
away, because a dozen or so flowers unfold from each bulb
over the course of a few weeks. Depending on the variety
and species of autumn crocus that you plant, you could have
crocus-y blossoms right through late fall.
One of the best autumn crocuses is Colchicum speciosum,
a robust plant bearing large, shapely blooms of soft, rosy
pink. When fully open, each flower is almost a half-foot
across. Hows that for a crocus?
Despite their look-alike flowers, colchicums do not sport
the delicate, strappy leaves of true crocuses. The large
leaves appear in spring for a few weeks, then start to brown
as the plant goes dormant, at which point theyre not a very
pretty sight. Deal with this by planting the bulbs beneath
some evergreen groundcover, or distant enough so that
although the flowers can be appreciated in autumn, the
browning leaves meld with the soil in late spring.

Not all autumn crocuses are fake crocuses; some real ones
also blossom in fall. These have the delicate flowers, in
white or shades of purple, and the bright orange stigmas
sported by their spring-flowering cousins.
Again, there are few species, and they differ in bloom
time, colors and size. Most commonly offered is Crocus
speciosus, but also keep an eye out for others, such as C.
laevigatus and C. longiflorus, both with sweet fragrances.
GROWING CROCUSES, REAL OR NOT

Autumn crocuses and autumn-flowering crocuses enjoy
the same growing conditions enjoyed by most spring-flowering bulbs that is, moderately rich, well-drained soil in
sun or dappled shade. However, these autumn-flowering
bulbs differ from spring-flowering bulbs in their need to be
planted earlier, preferably in late summer.
This need causes a problem, a marketing problem rather
than a gardening one. Nurseries hype and sell spring-flowering bulbs in autumn, and summer-flowering bulbs in
spring. Its hard to drum up fanfare for midsummer sales of
the few autumn-flowering bulbs needing planting then.
If you have trouble finding these bulbs locally, buy from
mail-order firms. Depending on when you actually get bulbs
in hand, you might find autumn crocuses blooming in their
packaging.

Brutalist decor hefts

some weight this fall
By Kim Cook
Most peppers in the garden are green but if you leave them
in the ground long enough, they change colors.
How to choose the right

pepper for your garden
By Dean Fosdick
There are hundreds of chili pepper varieties from which to

choose for the home garden, so it pays to know which deliver the most flavor and which pack the most heat. Others are
popular simply for their looks.
Color is a big factor, said Robert Westerfield, a horticulturist with University of Georgia Extension. People are
very color-conscious. Most peppers in the garden are green
but if you leave them in the ground long enough, they
change colors. They sell a lot better with color.
Curiosity also drives purchases, said Dave DeWitt, an
adjunct associate professor at New Mexico State University
and co-author of The Field Guide to Peppers (Timber Press,
2015). Theres something appealing about taking visitors
out to the garden and showing them the hottest pepper in
the world, he said.
Super-hot varieties, in fact, have become the most popular of the 500 different sweet and hot pepper plants sold by
Janie Lamson, owner of Cross Country Nurseries in
Rosemount, New Jersey, and co-author with DeWitt of The
Field Guide to Peppers.
While some buy one super-hot for curiosity, others do
enjoy them and buy in quantity, Lamson said. Gardeners
are making hot sauce like crazy now and giving it as gifts,
using all sorts of varieties.
They also are experimenting with more unusual and different varieties, using them to make new dishes, often from
other ethnicities. It does seem that our tastes for different
cuisines have evolved and expanded.
Peppers are tender perennials, but most are grown as annuals because of their vulnerability to frost, Lamson said.
See PEPPERS, Page 24
Muscular. Brawny. Disruptive. They

dont sound like descriptors for home
dcor, do they?
Yet they perfectly describe one of
the most interesting new directions in
furniture and accessories: Brutalist
dcor.
Brutalist architecture was popularized by Le Corbusier in the 1950s. A
departure from the intricate Beaux Arts
building style, it was all about spare
geometric forms, and materials like
unfinished concrete, steel and glass.
New Yorks Whitney Museum of
American Art is a Brutalist design by
Marcel Breuer. Paul Rudolph designed
the Art and Architecture Building at
Yale.
The style moved into interior dcor
that also played with abstract forms
and rough textures, adding an earthy
color palette and incorporating other
materials like wood, plaster and marble. Furniture by designers like Paul
Evans and Curtis Jere found fans, and
the style caught fire during the 60s
and 70s. There are nice examples on
the sets of the movie American
Hustle and TVs Mad Men.
So why is Brutalism once again having a moment?
Brutalism is derived from the
French word brut, or raw, and I think
its that sense of rawness that design
lovers are attracted to today, ventures
Anna Brockaway, co-founder and curator of the online vintage-design marketplace Chairish. Because of their
brawny heaviness, imperfect finishes
and rough, uneven dimensions,
Brutalist pieces deliver gutsy gravitas
to a space. (www.chairish.com )
Jeni Sandberg, a modern-design
dealer and consultant in Raleigh,
North Carolina, adds, Brutalist works
make perfect high-impact statement
pieces, and collectors are snapping up
pieces like wall sculptures and chandeliers. (www.jenisandberg.com )
And New York designer Daun Curry
says, Design should challenge us, and
creating contrast in an environment
gives urgency, interest and dimension.
Brutalist design is fascinating because

it balances delicacy with harsh materiality. (www.dauncurry.com )
Currys favorite sources include 1st
Dibs and Flair Home Collection. The
former offers vintage pieces like a
1967 Paul Evans patchwork steel cabinet, and a Lane dresser with a Brutalist
sculptured wood mosaic. Flair has a
collection of Brutalist objets dart in
various metals and gilded plaster.
(www.flairhomecollection.com )
Kelly Wearstlers Apollo stool is an
artful stack of black or white marble
circles; her Elliott chair is a sexy mix
of curvy bronze and exotic fish
leather; and her Array, District and
Astral rugs bring Brutalist imagery to
the floor. (www.kellywearstler.com )

At Arteriors, long a source for

Brutalist style, round slabs of forged
iron form the industrial-chic Potter
lamp. The Payne chandelier is a kinetic arrangement of hand-cut, gold-leafed
iron shards, while a copse of welded
iron sticks forms the Ecko lamp.
Armor-like metallic circles and squares
form the Ulysses and Monty pendants.
(www.arteriors.com )
I recommend picking one statement-making piece to anchor a space,
like a chandelier, credenza, cocktail
table or wall sculpture, and then mixing in pieces from other eras and
styles, advises Brockaway, of
Chairish.
Also, many Brutalist pieces are
dark in coloration, so I prefer to balance them with a lighter surrounding
palate.
Think powerful yet playful, more

Peppers need sun and warm temperatures,
but very hot weather will cause plants to

issues when the heat is high, Lamson said.
Peppers can be grown from seed but most
gardeners choose transplants for easier
planting, she said. Seeding takes a long

time and is not always easy, especially for
beginners.
Some chili pepper varieties to consider
for:
Roasting. Colorado or California reds,
Giant Marconi.
Eating raw. Jalapeno and Jimmy
Nardello. Both are relatively mild, especially when young.
Canning and pickling. Banana (Big
Bertha, Camelot), cherry and Serrano. The
latter makes a good salsa.
Heat. Habaneras are real tearjerkers.
Unless you dilute them tremendously, the
super-hots are not very edible, DeWitt
said.
Ornamentals. Chili peppers may never

outsell poinsettias for holiday decorating
but theyre becoming a hot alternative. Try
orange and black species for Halloween, red
and black for Christmas, or pink to red for
Valentines Day.
Be careful, though, when processing
super-hot varieties for the kitchen, DeWitt
said.
Always wear gloves when cutting them
open, he said. Capsaicin (a colorless,
odorless irritant found only in peppers) will
get onto your hands and other sensitive
parts of your body. The pain is extreme
although temporary after flushing with
water, but its not something you want to
do.

HOUSING
Planning Commission.
Alex Greenwood, the citys director
of Economic and Community
Development, said the project would
rejuvenate a blighted area near the
intersection of Miller Avenue and
Airport Boulevard.
It is a very exciting development
that will serve as a market maker for
downtown South San Francisco, said
Greenwood.
Nearly 30 residents signed a petition also expressing support for the
project, but not everyone shared that
same sentiment.
Resident John Martoni decried the
lack of affordable housing offered by
Sares Regis, in an email sent to city
officials.
As a teacher, I am extremely frustrated because I am being priced out of
South City and there is nowhere left in
the Bay Area to find affordable housing, Martoni said. South City was
one of the few affordable pockets in
the Bay Area. Although lots of new
units have been approved, they are all
being developed by corporations with
track records of greedy opportunism.
None of them will be remotely affordable for those of us with middle-class
incomes who dont qualify for subsidies/assistance.
In a phone conversation, Martoni
said he believes a bulk of the Sares
Regis development is not designed to
serve South San Francisco residents,
but rather high-paid employees from
the technology or biotechnology sectors who may be interested in relocating nearer where they work.
I think the housing they are building is not for the people who are
here, he said. It is for people who
dont live there.
Martoni, who works as a teacher in
Hayward, said the lack of affordable
housing built in South San Francisco
may eventually cause him to have to
consider moving back to his native
Long Beach.
RAIN
high as during a storm that hit the
region this past Sunday, Anderson
said.
Its mostly going to be a rain
event, Anderson said.
Weather service officials expect 2 to
4 inches of rain in the North Bay, 1 to
2 inches in San Francisco and about an
inch in both the East and South Bays,
according to Anderson.
He said he is frustrated because

South San Francisco has been one of
the last bastions of affordable places
to live in the Bay Area, but fears that
may soon change.
I felt like I found the cheap place
and now I am being forced out of the
cheap place, he said.
Martoni said many of his colleagues
harbor the same concern that they will
soon be priced out of the area.
Sares Regis typically specializes in
high-end residential projects, and has
not offered to set aside any portion of
the apartments at an affordable rate.
Under state law, the city has no legal
authority to set rental prices.
Greenwood said the desire of city
officials to build affordable housing
will have to be realized through a variety of other construction projects
being proposed in South San
Francisco.
The city has a broad strategy to
make sure affordable housing is provided as we implement projects in the
downtown plan, he said. Right now
there are about 500 units in the
pipeline, of which about 100 are
affordable. Even though in this project it didnt work out, overall we are
on track for building about 20 percent
of affordable units.
Rather than offer below-market
rents, Sares Regis has agreed to offer
community benefits instead, such as
paying $2.7 million to support the
city park fund, as well as adding
streetscaping which will improve
lighting, sidewalks and biking conThe above normal rainfall will be
near the Oregon border, where 10 to 12
inches is expected, he said.
He said the storm is not going to be
an El Nino event but rather another
winter storm.
In the Bay Area, rain is forecast to
fall at least once in each 24-hour period, Anderson said.
National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration officials are predicting
extreme high tides, called King tides,
in Marin County from Monday
through Wednesday before Christmas.
High tides, but not King tides, are
forecast for Christmas Eve, Christmas
25
nections, among other efforts.

Also contributing to the possible
perks of the project, the city is in the
process of moving its Caltrain station
from its current location to the west
side of Highway 101, making it more
accessible for the future residents of
the proposed development.
The project, spanning four lots at
401 and 411 Airport Blvd. , 405
Cypress Ave. and 216 Miller Ave.,
could be a landmark for a portion of
the downtown which is currently
home to a former Ford car dealership,
vacant hotel and private parking lot.
The proposed project seeks to
transform an underutilized collection
of sites into a high-density residential
development that will serve as a gateway project to Miller Avenue, bring
new residents into close proximity to
existing transit providers, and assist
in creating a pedestrian-friendly
downtown, said the report.
Earlier this year, the South San
Francisco City Council approved a
downtown specific plan aiming to
build a mix of new high-density housing near the citys relocated train station.
One apartment building in the project proposed to be constructed at 401
and 411 Airport Blvd. will split 160
units over five stories, sitting on top
of two stories of parking. A nearby
project at 309 and 315 Airport Blvd.
will house another 100 units spread
across the top five stories, again on
top of two bottom stories of parking.
Additional parking would be built
nearby on Cypress Avenue.
The second phase of construction
would build 12 townhomes at 216
Miller Ave., which will require further
consideration by the Planning
Commission and City Council at a
yet-to-be-determined date.
Greenwood said he is excited the
city will have an opportunity to bring
the project to fruition.
We are very thrilled to be considered as a potential development for the
city, he said.
The South San Francisco Planning
Commission meets Thursday, Dec. 17,
7 p.m. in the council chambers, 33
Arroyo Drive.
Day and the day after Christmas,
NOAA officials said.
Marin County sheriffs officials said
the high tides and King tides will likely flood roads, and the flooding could
mean those traveling have to take a
different route.
Caltrans told sheriffs officials that
the potential for flooding will last
until Dec. 28.
Sheriffs officials are reminding
drivers to avoid driving through ponded water and to allow extra time for
travel during peak commuter times and
on holiday travel days.

NOTICE OF PETITION TO
ADMINISTER ESTATE OF
Rebecca Bogdanovich
Case Number: 126387
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or estate, or both, of Rebecca Bogdanovich. A
Petition for Probate has been filed by
Dennis Roberts in the Superior Court of
California, County of San Mateo. The
Petition for Probate requests that Dennis
Roberts be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of the
decedent.
The petition requests the decedents will
and codicils, if any, be admitted to probate. The will and any codicils are available for examination in the file kept by the
court.
The petition requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent
Administration of Estates Act. (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval. Before taking certain
very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to
give notice to interested persons unless
they have waived notice or consented to
the proposed action.) The independent
administration authority will be granted
unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good
cause why the court should not grant the
authority.
A hearing on the petition will be held in
this court as follows: JAN 06, 2016 at
9:00 a.m., Department 28, Superior
Court of California, County of San Mateo,
400 County Center, Redwood City, CA
94063.
If you object to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing
and state your objections or file written
objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person
or by your attorney.
If you are a creditor or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your
claim with the court and mail a copy to
the personal representative appointed by
the court within the later of either (1) four
months from the date of first issuance of
letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the
California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days
from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under section
9052 of the California Probate Code.
Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in California law.
You may examine the file kept by the
court. If you are a person interested in
the estate, you may file with the court a
Request for Special Notice (form DE154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any petition
or account as provided in Probate Code
section 1250. A Request for Special Notice form is available from the court clerk.

Carter in Iraq to seek new ways to battle Islamic State

By Lolita C. Baldor
BAGHDAD Defense Secretary Ash

Carter said Wednesday he came away from
meetings with Iraqi leaders with no agreement on the use of Apache attack helicopters or additional military advisers in the
battle to retake the key city of Ramadi from
Islamic State militants.
But he said the U.S. was ready to provide
such support if the Iraqis asked.
Speaking to reporters after meetings with
Iraq Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi and others, Carter said that as military conditions
change, the U.S. is prepared to increase its
contributions to the fight.
The Obama administration has been talking for days about accelerating the fight
against IS, but that could be complicated by
Iraqs reluctance to a greater U.S. presence
in the country, including tools such as
Apache helicopters and more troops.
This is a very complex environment that
were operating in and we have to be atten-
tive to some of the political realities that

surround us every single day, said Lt. Gen.
Sean MacFarland, top U.S. military commander for the Islamic State fight. Its kind
of hard to inflict support on somebody. So
we try to provide support.
The two countries at times differ on how
to wage the war, and any military support
has to be consistent with the way Iraqi
security forces fight, said MacFarland,
speaking to reporters at the Baghdad
International Airport.
Carter said MacFarland and Abadi believe
there is no military need for the Apaches
now. And those assets should only be used
when they can make a critical, strategic
contribution to the fight. But, he said, that
doesnt mean they wont make a difference
sometime in the future.
A senior U.S. official said the U.S. has
been making preparations and will be ready
at any moment to dispatch the Apaches
when requested. The official was not authorized to discuss the matter publicly, so spoke
on condition of anonymity.

FIELD
a rubberized playground surface, and reseeding the area with grass was the third most
preferred option. Other alternatives include
planting trees or a garden in the field and
creating an alternative learning space with
no grass or turf. The least popular alternative was taking no action, or laying more
asphalt at the area.
Trustee Nicole Bergeron said she is
enticed by the request of students, parents
and teachers to install turf.
My instincts are first to do what the
school community wants, she said. I want
to focus on the kids who go the school, and
what they need.
The survey comes before the board as
SOL
$600.
Her monthly rent for a slip at the marina
is $584. She owns the boat she towed into
Docktown.
The city filed an unlawful detainer in
Superior Court after Sol failed to vacate the
marina by Nov. 1.
Sol said it was filed the day after she lost
her bid for council Nov. 3. She finished
sixth in race for three seats with about 8.2
percent of the vote.
The unlawful detainer was stamped by the
clerk of the court Nov. 17 but Sol said she
wasnt served until earlier this month.
Either way, she is ready to let a judge
LOCAL
THE DAILY JOURNAL
school officials begin to consider a proposal to collaborate with city officials on

installing turf at district campuses, which
would broaden access for community sports
programs to play on the districts athletic
spaces.
Historically, San Carlos has been reluctant to embrace turf being laid at athletic
fields, due in part to concerns regarding the
health hazards associated with the material
used to make the surfaces.
But the dearth of available athletic fields
open for community sports leagues, such as
the American Youth Soccer Organization,
has perhaps made the initiative more palatable than years past.
The school board decided in October to
perform a comprehensive study of all district fields before moving ahead on any
effort to install turf at district campuses.
The city has offered to help pay for the turf
installation, should the community gain
greater access to the fields when they are

not being used by students.
School officials have said the existing
drought makes it more difficult than ever to
support a preference for maintaining natural
grass, due in part to the copious amounts of
water required to irrigate the fields.
Bergeron said she does not have a comprehensive stance on whether turf should be
installed throughout the district, but said
the case at Arundel may be unique, in part
due to the previous unsuccessful attempts to
grow grass.
I think it is worth exploring, she said.
It has all the markers of a good idea.
She added amidst any future attempt to
address the field on the Arundel campus, a
primary concern should be preserving student safety.
More than half of those surveyed said the
barren area is currently unsafe and not
friendly for kids. Other concerns included
children getting dirty when they played on

the field.
Other concerns included reducing dust,
conserving water, aesthetics and keeping
costs low.
In the short term, the school site council
recommended laying down artificial turf and
addressing the drainage issues at the field,
as well as replacing the track around the circumference of the playing area with a rubberized material to make it softer and more
inviting.
Ultimately, the report recommended the
school address the entirety of the schools
upper playground campus, to provide more
shade and flexible spaces which can accommodate diverse learning environments as
well as physical education.
The San Carlos Elementary School
District Board of Trustees meets Thursday,
Dec. 17, at 5 p.m. in the district board
room, 1200 Industrial Road.
decide her fate sometime in March.

Sol also sued the city in 2014 for not letting her hook up to the citys sewer system.
The court ruled that the four sewer connections existed before the city took over management of Docktown and were grandfathered in. This does automatically entitle
Sol to a connection as well, according to
court documents.
But Sol contends that the city cannot
disconnect her sewer and then tell her she is
responsible for a lack of sewer.
The city took over operating the marina
in 2013 after its then owner Fred Earnhardt
Jr. opted to no longer oversee the harbor,
which had fallen into disrepair.
The council, in April, rejected a plan to
close the marina despite the opinion of
State Lands Commission staff that the
houseboats located at the end of Maple
Street do not belong there.

Then city manager Bob Bell made it clear,
however, that every day the city continues
to operate the marina is another day it
opens itself up to costly litigation.
The marina, which opened in 1964, has
always been limbo as the state, holds these
lands in trust for the benefit of all of the
people of California for the purposes of
commerce, navigation and fisheries.
The floating home community at
Docktown is inconsistent with the public
trust, according to the State Lands
Commission.
Redwood City is also being sued by a
nearby resident for violating the public
trust doctrine.
Each state defines floating homes differently, but in general, theyre:
constructed on a float;
designed and built to be used as a residential dwelling;

stationary by being moored or anchored,
and not meant for navigation;
without a means of self-propulsion;
powered by utilities connected to the
shore; and
permanently and continuously connected to a sewage system on shore, according
to the International Association of Certified
Home Inspectors.
Sol contends the city is trying to get
around the notion that Docktown is a floating home community since it does not
have a minimum of five sewer hookups.
The citys Inner Harbor Precise Plan,
being circulated now, calls for the removal
of Docktown and the creation of a floating
home community nearby on private land at
the Ferrari Pond.

Russian airstrikes restore Syrian military balance of power

By Zeina Karam
BEIRUT Weeks of Russian airstrikes

in Syria appear to have restored enough
momentum to the government side to convince President Bashar Assads foes and the
world community that even if he doesnt
win the war he cannot quickly be removed
by force.
That realization, combined with the
growing sense that the worlds No. 1 priority is the destruction of the Islamic State
group, has led many to acknowledge that
however unpalatable his conduct of the war,
Assad will have to be tolerated for at least
some time further.
The most dramatic sign of that came
Tuesday with the statement by U. S.
Secretary of State John Kerry that Assads
future will be determined by the Syrian people, suggesting in the clearest way yet that
he can stay on for now and be part of a transition.
That statement less a reversal than the

culmination of a rethink that had been
underway for months was doubly piquant
coming in Moscow, where Kerry was discussing the Syria question with Russian
officials.
The Russians with their military intervention have basically said you can refuse
to talk to Bashar Assad, but that means that
you wont get a political solution, said
Yezid Sayigh, a senior associate at the
Carnegie Middle East Center in Beirut. If
you do want that, then you have to deal with
this man.
Still, significant gaps remain between
the U.S. and Russia on Assads future, U.S.
Ambassador to the United Nations
Samantha Power said Wednesday, emphasizing that the U.S. position on Assad has not
changed. There is going to have to be a
political transition, and Assad will have to
go, Power told reporters ahead of a major
international conference on Syria in New
York on Friday.
