Donald Trump sits for an exclusive interview with Reuters journalists in the Oval Office.
GOP waits on Trump as clock
ticks toward partial shutdown
By Lisa Mascaro,
Matthew Daly and Catherine Lucey
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — The fight over President
Donald Trump’s $5 billion wall funds deep-
ened Monday, threatening a partial govern-
ment shutdown in a standoff that has
become increasingly common in
Washington.
It wasn’t always like this, with Congress
and the White House at a crisis over govern-
ment funding. The House and Senate used to
pass annual appropriation bills, and the
president signed them into law. But in
recent years the shutdown scenario has
become so routine that it raises the ques-
tion: Have shutdowns as a negotiating tool
lost their punch?
Monday brought few signs of progress. A
partial shutdown that could occur at mid-
night Friday risks disrupting government
operations and leaving hundreds of thou-
sands of federal employees furloughed or
working without pay over the holiday sea-
son. Costs would be likely in the billions of
dollars.
Trump was meeting with his team and get-
ting regular updates, said White House
spokeswoman Sarah Huckabee Sanders.
Trump was also tweeting Monday to keep up
the pressure.
Exiting a Senate Republican leadership
STATE/NATION
REUTERS FILE PHOTO
meeting late Monday, Sen. John Thune of
South Dakota said, “It looks like it proba-
bly is going to have to build for a few days
here before there’s a solution.”
The president is insisting on $5 billion
for the wall along the southern border with
Mexico, but he does not have the votes from
the Republican-led Congress to support it.
Democrats are offering to continue funding
at current levels, $1.3 billion, not for the
wall but for fencing and other border securi-
ty.
It’s unclear how many House Republicans,
with just a few weeks left in the majority
before relinquishing power to House
Democrats, will even show up mid-week for
possible votes. Speaker Paul Ryan’s office
had no update. Many Republicans say it’s up
to Trump and Democrats to cut a deal.
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell
and Trump talk most days, but the senator’s
spokesman would not confirm if they spoke
Monday about a plan. McConnell opened
the chamber hoping for a “bipartisan col-
laborative spirit” that would enable
Congress to finish its work.
“We need to make a substantial invest-
ment in the integrity of our border, ”
McConnell said. “And we need to close out
the year’s appropriation process.”
Meanwhile more than 800,000 govern-
ment workers are preparing for the uncer-
tainty ahead.
Girl’s death shows issues
on the US-Mexico border
By Julie Watson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Shortly before a 7-year-old Guatemalan
girl died in U.S. custody, her father signed a
form stating that his daughter was in good
health. But it’s unclear how much the man
understood on the form, which was written
in English and read to him in Spanish by
Border Patrol agents.
The death of Jakelin Caal highlights the
communication challenges along the U.S.-
Mexico border as agents come in contact
with an increasing number of migrants who
speak neither English nor Spanish.
Her father’s native language is the Mayan
tongue known as Q’eqchi’. His second lan-
guage is Spanish. It’s unclear whether some-
thing was lost in translation or whether it
would have made a difference in saving
Jakelin after the two were detained and
underwent a health screening along a remote
stretch of the U.S.-Mexico border. But the
case raises questions about the Border
Patrol’s use of English-only forms.
All agents are required to speak Spanish,
and they receive formal Spanish training.
Reading forms in Spanish is often enough
Longtime DMV employee

SACRAMENTO — California’s troubled
Department of Motor Vehicles will get a new

Gov. Jerry Brown designated Bill
Davidson as acting director on Monday to

at the end of the year. Davidson is currently
the chief deputy director and has worked at
the DMV for 16 years, working in field
operations and as the budget officer.
Davidson also helped implement
California’s program that allows non-citi-
THE DAILY JOURNAL
to pose basic questions. But some other
Spanish-speaking migrants reported sign-
ing paperwork that they later said they did
not understand.
Scores of immigrant parents who were
separated from their children after crossing
the border in the spring said they signed
forms agreeing to be deported with the
understanding that their kids would be
returning with them, only to find them-
selves deported without them. Many had to
wait months before being reunited with
them in their homelands. Jakelin and her
father, Nery Gilberto Caal Cuz, were part of
a group of 163 migrants arrested Dec. 6 near
a border crossing in New Mexico. Hours
later, they were placed on a bus to the near-
est Border Patrol station, but Jakelin began
vomiting and eventually stopped breathing.
She later died at a Texas hospital.
Border Patrol officials on Friday said
agents did everything they could to save the
girl but that she had not had food or water
for days. An initial screening showed no
evidence of health problems, they said, and
her father spoke to them in Spanish and
signed a form indicating she was in good
health.

zens to get drivers licenses.
Davidson will take over after a tumultuous
year that saw hours-long wait times as the
agency rolled out new federal ID require-
ments and a series of problems related to
California’s “motor voter” program that
automatically registers eligible people to
vote.
In the latest error, Shiomoto said the
agency failed to transmit 589 voter-related
forms to elections officials before the
November election, potentially preventing
those people from voting.

Homeless count up slightly, but declines in key cities
By Geoff Mulvihill
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
A federal report released Monday provides
a possible glimmer of hope for the homeless
crisis that has gripped many cities up and
down the West Coast.
The number of people living on the streets
in Los Angeles and San Diego, two epicen-
ters of the homelessness crisis, fell this
year, suggesting those cities’ efforts to
combat the problem could be starting to pay
off.
In Los Angeles, the count fell by 3 percent
after a sharp increase the year before. Peter
Lynn, executive director of the Los Angeles
Homeless Services Authority, said that can
be credited to results of six months of
stepped-up homeless services after Los
Angeles County voters raised taxes to help
in 2017.
Later that year, Los Angeles city voters
approved a bond issue to provide more
affordable housing — a factor Lynn said will
start showing up in future counts.

WASHINGTON — Russia’s sweeping
political disinformation campaign on U.S.
social media was more far-reaching than
originally thought, with troll farms work-
ing to discourage black voters and “blur the
lines between reality and fiction” to help
elect Donald Trump in 2016, according to
reports released Monday by the Senate
intelligence committee.

The two studies are the most comprehen-

that trend, showing 552,800 people without
homes across the country, up by about 2,000
from 2017, according to the U.S.
Department of Housing and Urban
Development’s point-in-time tally. It was
the second consecutive increase after seven
straight years of declines.
The number of homeless referred to as
unsheltered — those living in the streets,
encampments or other open places — was
more than 194,000 nationwide. That also
was up from last year.
More than 37,000 of the unsheltered were
in the Los Angeles area this year, down 2 per-
cent from 2017.
San Diego, California’s second most pop-
ulous city, also saw a decline in both total
homelessness and those on the streets. After
a hepatitis A outbreak spread among the
homeless population and killed 20 people in
2017, the city turned to industrial-sized tents
to house hundreds of people. As the tents
went up, officials also cited people camping
on downtown streets. Encampments down-
town cleared out quickly, but the number
along the San Diego River doubled.

At the same time, “Messaging to conser-

three things: repeat patriotic and anti-
immigrant slogans; elicit outrage with
posts about liberal appeasement of ‘others’
at the expense of US citizens, and encourage
them to vote for Trump.”

US sportswear traced to factory in China’s camps
REUTERS
Workers walk by the perimeter fence of what is officially known
as a vocational skills education center in Dabancheng in
Xinjiang Uighur Autonomous Region, China.
NATION/WORLD
By Dake Kang, Martha Mendoza and Yanan Wang
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
HOTAN, China — Barbed wire and hundreds of cameras
ring a massive compound of more than 30 dormitories,
schools, warehouses and workshops in China’s far west.
Dozens of armed officers and a growling Doberman stand
guard outside.
Behind locked gates, men and women are sewing sports-
wear that can end up on U.S. college campuses and sports
teams.
This is one of a growing number of internment camps in
the Xinjiang region, where by some estimates 1 million
Muslims are detained, forced to give up their language and
their religion and subject to political indoctrination. Now,
the Chinese government is also forcing some detainees to
work in manufacturing and food industries. Some of them
are within the internment camps; others are privately-
owned, state-subsidized factories where detainees are sent
once they are released.
The Associated Press has tracked recent, ongoing ship-
ments from one such factory inside an internment camp to
Badger Sportswear, a leading supplier in Statesville, North
THE DAILY JOURNAL
Carolina. The shipments show how difficult it is to stop
products made with forced labor from getting into the glob-
al supply chain, even though such imports are illegal in the
U.S. Badger CEO John Anton said Sunday that the company
would source sportswear elsewhere while it investigates.
Chinese authorities say the camps, which they call train-
ing centers, offer free vocational training for Uighurs,
Kazakhs and others, mostly Muslims, as part of a plan to
bring minorities into “a modern civilized” world and elimi-
nate poverty in Xinjiang. They say that people in the cen-
ters have signed agreements to receive vocational training.
The Xinjiang Propaganda Department did not respond to
a faxed request for comment. A Chinese Foreign Ministry
spokeswoman accused the foreign media Monday of mak-
ing “many untrue reports” about the training centers, but
did not specify when asked for details.
“Those reports are completely based on hearsay evidence
or made out of thin air,” the spokeswoman, Hua Chunying,
said at a daily briefing.
However, a dozen people who either had been in a camp or
had friends or family in one told the AP that detainees they
knew were given no choice but to work at the factories.
Most of the Uighurs and Kazakhs, who were interviewed in
exile, also said that even people with professional jobs
were retrained to do menial work.
Payment varied according to the factory. Some got paid
nothing, while others earned up to several hundred dollars a
month, they said — barely above minimum wage for the
poorer parts of Xinjiang. A person with firsthand knowl-
edge of the situation in one county estimated that more than
10,000 detainees — or 10 to 20 percent of the internment
population there — are working in factories, with some
earning just a tenth of what they used to earn before.

What did Kamala Harris know?
The Fresno Bee
O
n paper, Sen. Kamala Harris
is a rather enticing
Democratic presidential
nominee for 2020. Formerly a San
Francisco district attorney and
California attorney general, she was
elected to the U.S. Senate in 2016 and
labeled a presidential contender even
before stepping on to the Senate
floor.
Harris has, in part, staked her
potential candidacy in 2020 on her
leadership on women’s issues and, in
particular, on sexual harassment in
the workplace. Harris, along with
Sens. Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn., and
Cory Booker, D-N.J., made headlines
with their strong and persistent ques-
tioning of now-Supreme Court Justice
Brett Kavanaugh, who was accused of
sexually assaulting Dr. Christine
Blasey Ford when they both were
teenagers.
Furthermore, Harris was front and
center with Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand,
D-N.Y., in calling for Sen. Al
Franken, D-Minn., to resign after he
was accused of sexual harassment.
The Sacramento Bee broke the story
Wednesday that one of Harris’ long-
time aides, Larry Wallace, had been
accused of gender harassment and
other demeaning behavior by his for-

shows just how Millbrae is being run.
By not naming Ann Schneider as

the majority of the council retains the
unhealthy attitude that if you are not

Hartley said Wallace repeatedly

she asked to have the printer moved,
he declined. He sent Hartley on per-

pretations here, and they are unpleas-
ant. Wallace wasn’t out on the periph-
ery of Harris’ staff; he was a senior
aide she knew for 14 years — hardly a
stranger. For Harris to flatly deny any
knowledge of this settlement seems,
shall we say, far-fetched. For the
moment, let’s take her at her word.
A second and equally troubling
interpretation is that Harris isn’t a
terribly good manager, and that her
staff was insulating her from informa-
tion critical to the performance of her
duties. This is hardly a propitious
beginning to a presidential candidacy.
Harris’ handling of this matter is
eerily reminiscent of a 2010 case dur-
ing her tenure as district attorney,
where a judge rebuked her office for
hiding problems in the drug analysis
section of the San Francisco police
crime lab.
Part of being an elected official is
not only taking strong political posi-
tions and executing them fairly, it’s
also being able to manage the people
you entrust with responsibility. In
this case, Harris has fallen short.
Harris owes the voters more than
just a four-word denial on the steps of
the U.S. Senate. She should fully
explain her relationship with
Wallace, and, by extension, her staff
and why it insulated her from an issue
upon which she has taken a leading
national role.

Mr. Okobi’s sister, Ebele Okobi,

the contents on Facebook and asked
that the video be released to the pub-

substitution for viewing the video —
however painful it may be to witness
Mr. Okobi’s suffering and death.
Your job as district attorney is to
represent the public in the pursuit of
justice. The truth needs to be seen,
heard, known — because the truth is
what serves justice — and sets us free.
Toward that purpose, release the

Helping build a
place everyone
can call home
By Warren Slocum
T
he holidays are around the corner, and they’re
always a time to pause and remember what we are
grateful for and what brings us joy. As a San
Mateo County supervisor, one of my joys is to meet res-
idents and listen to what they need to make San Mateo
County the best place to live and work. And what do res-
idents ask me about most? Housing. More than half of
the conversations I have are about the challenges our
residents face in finding a place to call
home.
No wonder: San Mateo County only
has one housing unit for every 16 jobs
here. While that’s better than just a
few years ago, with more jobs than
homes, rents have skyrocketed, and
affordable homes are harder to find.
We’ve seen rents go up over 39 per-
cent for two-bedroom homes between
2011 and 2017. And more than 50 percent of our current
renters — our families, friends, teachers, nurses — are
paying unaffordable and unsustainable rents. A recent
analysis by the Bay Area Regional Health Inequities
Initiative found that approximately 10,000 families
with young children in San Mateo County struggle to
pay for their housing, and more than 400 parents, chil-
dren and caregivers were homeless in 2017.
When our neighbors are forced to move away, we all
suffer — from teachers who can’t afford to live near
schools to emergency responders who live far from hos-
pitals. Our families, especially low-income families and
communities of color, are being displaced and having to
drive longer distances for work, worship and to be with
family.
Having a place to call home also deeply matters for
health locally and across our region. Long commutes
create pollution and congestion that limits the time
people spend with their families. Substandard or crowd-
ed housing is linked to hypertension, heart disease and
diabetes — all which can mean someone we love is leav-
ing us too soon. Working two jobs to afford rent means
not having time to read to your kids at night, prepare
healthy meals or exercise. The chronic stress from wor-
rying about making this month’s rent or being dis-
placed adds up to real physical and mental health
impacts.
These are tough problems. But in San Mateo County
we are innovators, collaborators and problem solvers.
San Mateo County’s Home for All Initiative (home-
forallsmc.org) will create more affordable homes for res-
idents and reduce traffic. One example: The county has
allocated over $57 million in the last two years to build
and preserve affordable housing, helped increase acces-
sory dwelling units (granny units or secondary units),
and provided cities with support to address housing now
and in the future.
But San Mateo County can’t do it alone. To create a
San Mateo County where everyone has a home and an
opportunity to be healthy and thrive, we’ve got to work
across the Bay Area region. Innovative work by the
Metropolitan Transportation Commission to identify
regional transportation and housing solutions through
the Committee to House the Bay Area (mtc.ca.gov/our-
work/plans-projects/casa-committee-house-bay-area)
brings leaders from across the Bay Area to increase
housing production at all levels of affordability, pre-
serve existing affordable housing and protect vulnerable
populations from housing instability. This process will
bolster our local efforts with regional opportunities.
Together, we have a true opportunity to address the
housing crisis we are all feeling.
The situation we are in — where it has become harder
to call San Mateo County home — affects us all. I’m
proud to be part of a county and region that are working
to find solutions that benefit everyone. This effort
needs all hands on deck. Our communities deserve our
best efforts so that we can make homes and improved
health a reality for everyone.
Warren Slocum is a member of the San Mateo County
Board of Superv isors, representing District 4.

Dow takes another 2 percent plunge

By Marley Jay
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Another day of
big losses knocked U.S. stocks to
their lowest levels in more than a
year Monday.
Selling was widespread.
Investors dumped high-growth
technology and retail companies
as well as steadier, high-dividend
companies. Hospitals and health
insurers slumped after a federal
judge in Texas ruled that the 2010
Affordable Care Act is unconstitu-
tional.
The Dow Jones Industrial
Average fell 507 points after a
496-point drop Friday, and all the
major stock indexes fell at least 2
percent. Oil closed below $50 a
barrel for the first time since
October 2017. Bonds rose and
their yields fell.
Mark Hackett, chief of invest-
ment research at Nationwide
Investment Management, attrib-
uted Monday’s action in stocks to
investor concerns about the slow-
ing global economy. But he felt it
was overdone. “That is basically
retail investors panicking,” he
said. “Investors basically are con-
fusing the idea of a slowdown with
a recession.”
Investors sold almost every-
thing. Less than 40 of the 500
stocks comprising the S&P 500
finished the day higher. Amazon
led a rout among retailers and tech
companies including Microsoft
turned sharply lower. Some of the
largest losses went to utilities and
real estate companies, which have
done better than the rest of the
market during the turbulence of the
last three months.
The S&P 500 index, the bench-
mark for many investors and
funds, finished at its lowest level

Oracle reported fiscal Business briefs

2Q net income of $2.33B
REDWOOD CITY — Oracle Corp. on
Monday reported fiscal second-quarter net
income of $2.33 billion.
On a per-share basis, the Redwood City-
based company said it had net income of 61
cents. Earnings, adjusted for one-time gains
and costs, came to 80 cents per share.
The results exceeded Wall Street expecta-
tions. The average estimate of 15 analysts
surveyed by Zacks Investment Research was
for earnings of 78 cents per share.
The software maker posted revenue of
$9.56 billion in the period. Its adjusted rev-
enue was $9.57 billion, also exceeding Street
forecasts. Twelve analysts surveyed by Zacks
expected $9.53 billion.
Oracle shares have fallen 3 percent since
the beginning of the year, while the Standard
& Poor’s 500 index has declined nearly 5 per-
cent. In the final minutes of trading on
Monday, shares hit $45.77, a decline of 5 per-

Airbnb says it hasn’t
reversed West Bank policy
JERUSALEM — Airbnb says it hasn’t
reversed its plan to stop listing properties in
Israeli settlements in the occupied West
Bank.
Earlier Monday, Israel’s tourism minister,
Yariv Levin, said Airbnb pledged “not to
implement” its decision during a meeting
between the two sides. Airbnb’s plan would
affect around 200 properties.
But Airbnb says that report was inaccu-
rate. The San Francisco-based company
says it is developing the tools needed to
implement its policy while it continues to
talk with stakeholders.
The company announced last month that it
would stop listing properties in the settle-
ments, which are considered illegal by most
of the world.
The decision prompted uproar in Israel.
Officials accused the company of anti-
Semitism and threatened to impose taxes on
its operations in Israel. Lawsuits were filed in
Israel and the U.S.
ICYMI: California withdraws
‘text tax’ after FCC ruling
SAN FRANCISCO — California regulators
have canceled a plan to charge a fee for text
messaging on mobile phones.
The California Public Utilities
Commission reversed course after a Federal
Communications Commission ruling last
week classified text messaging as an informa-
tion service and not a telecommunications
service. The federal Telecommunications Act
limits state authority over information serv-
ices.
Regulators announced Friday that CPUC
commissioner Carla Peterman withdrew the
text proposal “in light of the FCC’s action”
on Dec. 12. State officials said the tax was
intended to help support programs that make
phone service accessible to the poor.
The wireless industry and business groups
had been working to defeat the plan and calcu-
lated the new charges for wireless consumers
could total about $44.5 million a year.
They said that under the regulators’ propos-
al the charge could be applied retroactively
for five years — and could amount to a bill of
more than $220 million for California con-
sumers.

Silicon Valley is becoming Silicon
Nation.
Google announced Monday it will spend
more than $1 billion to build a new office
complex in New York City that will allow
the internet search giant to double the num-
ber of people it employs there.
It is the tech industry’s latest major
expansion beyond the Seattle-San
Francisco Bay corridor. It follows recent
steps by Amazon and Apple to set up large
operations well outside their home turf.
Tech companies are “coming to the real-
ization that the Bay Area, which has tradi-
tionally been the major center of tech activ-
ity in the U.S., is getting expensive and
crowded,” said Andrew Bartels, principal
analyst at Forrester Research.
“A lot of vendors are coming to the real-
ization that ‘We can probably find top tal-

Malaysia files criminal charges against
Goldman Sachs, two former executives
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia — Malaysia
filed criminal charges against Goldman
Sachs and two former executives on Monday
for their role in the alleged multibillion-
dollar ransacking of state investment fund
1MDB.
Attorney General Tommy Thomas said the
government is seeking several billion dol-
lars in fines from Goldman Sachs for breach-
es of securities laws that involved it making
false and misleading statements to
investors.
He said his office will seek prison sen-
tences of up to 10 years for the former
Goldman executives, Roger Ng Chong Hwa
and Tim Leissner, who is married to model
Kimora Lee Simmons.
Malaysian and U.S. prosecutors allege
who may be struggling to make ends meet.”’
The Northeast is attractive because of its
large concentration of highly educated
young people. New York in particular also
offers proximity to Wall Street and already
has the second-biggest concentration of
tech startups behind the Bay Area and a large
base of tech employees, Bartels said.
Facebook, based in Menlo Park, California,
has over 2,000 employees in New York.
Google, based in Mountain View,
California, will fashion a complex of more
than 1. 7 million square feet along the
Hudson River in the city’s West Village
neighborhood, Ruth Porat, senior vice pres-
ident and chief financial officer, said in a
blog post.
Google opened its first office in New York
nearly 20 years ago and now employs 7,000
people in the city. Its footprint is expand-
ing rapidly. Google said earlier this year
that it would buy the Chelsea Market build-
ing for $2.4 billion and planned to lease
more space at Pier 57, both along the
Hudson about a mile north of the newly
announced complex.
that bond sales organized by Goldman
Sachs for 1MDB provided one of the means
for associates of former Malaysian Prime
Minister Najib Razak to steal billions over
several years from a fund that was ostensi-
bly set up to accelerate Malaysia’s econom-
ic development.
The scandal, first reported by Sarawak
Report and the Wall Street Journal, resulted
in Najib and his ruling coalition losing
power in a historic election defeat earlier
this year.
Najib himself is facing corruption
charges.
He has said that more than $700 million
that moved through his bank account was a
political donation from the Saudi royal
family, but U.S. prosecutors say it came
from 1MDB, of which Najib was the top
official.

Mullens shows he belongs in NFL

Nick Mullens threw for 275 yards Sunday against Seattle.
By Josh Dubow
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SANTA CLARA — No matter what happens when Jimmy
Garoppolo is healthy again and steps back in as starting
quarterback for the 49ers, Nick Mullens has proven there’s
a place for him somewhere in the NFL.
The former undrafted free agent out of Southern Mississippi
who wasn’t even deemed worthy enough to invite to the com-
bine in 2017 has been one of the league’s more prolific
passers since getting his chance to play last month.
“He’s shown he can play in this league,” 49ers corner-
back Richard Sherman said. “I hope we can keep him
because teams need a quarterback. This guy’s not just play-
ing conservative football, oh man, get the ball in the right
places. He’s making the right decisions, he’s making good
throws under pressure. I’d say he’s playing like a top half
quarterback in this league. You have guys that are out there
right now that are not playing better football than Nick
Mullens. He could be a starter for a lot of teams in this foot-
ball league and we appreciate that we have him and he’s
playing his tail off for us.”
Mullens has built on his record-setting debut against
Oakland on Nov. 1, when he went 16 for 22 for 262 yards,
three touchdowns and no interceptions for a 151.9 passer
rating that was the highest since the merger for a player in
his debut with at least 20 attempts.
He took a little step back the following two games in

Bears shut out Lincoln, the longest scoreless
streak the Hornets suffered all year.
M-A had to game plan for a versatile
Lincoln offense that featured a quarterback
platoon of Davila and sophomore Raymond
Spriggs. The Bears, out of the gate, were
expecting to see Spriggs (2,155 passing
yards and 231 rushing yards on the season).
But with Davila (1,007 passing yards), the
Bears were quick studies in adjusting to the
junior’s playmaking arm.
“It didn’t take much time, to be honest,”
M-A defensive tackle Noa Ngalu said.
As they’ve done against high-powered
passing threats all season, the Bears com-
mitted to a 3-2-6 defense. Blitzing from the
secondary was non-existent. M-A relied
mightily on its three-man front, with Ngalu
in the middle. A rotation at the two defen-
sive end spots, highlighted by senior David
Tafuna, included a support cast of juniors
Uate Uhila, Petelo Vatuvei and Dominic
Paga.
“We thought our five could maybe beat
their five,” Ravipati said, “and if that was
the case we’d be in a good place and we could
drop more guys in coverage and get more
guys over the top. We thought we could take
the run game away and pressure the quarter-
back, and we were able to do that.”

Five plays later, the Bears took the lead

Lincoln went on to advance to the red
zone just once in the game. That came mid-

took a 21-7 lead on Hawkins’ second 3-yard
scoring run of the night. And the drive that
got the Hornets into the red started at the
Bears’ 35-yard line.
“It doesn’t matter who gets the tackle, it

the secret to the success of the M-A defense.
“You’re cheering for your brother.”
The success runs even deeper than that.
It’s the blood and sweat of a long season of

though, was made from the Bears going
head-to-head every day in practice. 
“To us, playing each other is like playing

Ngalu said.

Raiders hope for help on
banged-up offensive line
By Josh Dubow
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ALAMEDA — The Raiders go into the
final stretch of the season not knowing if
they will have their starting offensive line
available for the remaining two games.
Coach Jon Gruden said he remained cau-
tiously hopeful that left guard Kelechi
Osemele can return from a toe injury and
right guard Gabe Jackson can get back from
an elbow injury in time for Monday night’s
home finale against Denver.
“You have to be realistic, not just hopeful,”
Gruden said Monday. “This is a serious toe
injury that is hard for him to maneuver on.
Gabe Jackson is suffering from a very legiti-
mate elbow injury and it’s hard to block people
when you can’t extend your arm. We’re con-
cerned, obviously. But, I will say this. Chaz
Green and Denzelle Good — on a short notice
— they did do some good things yesterday.”
With a pair of backup guards who joined the
team during the year, the Raiders struggled offen-
sively against a Bengals team that came into the
game as the lowest-ranked defense in the NFL.
Oakland allowed five sacks in a 30-16
loss as the offense generated just one touch-
down behind the banged-up line.
While much attention was placed on the
fill-in guards, it was the rookie tackles who
struggled more, particularly left tackle
Kolton Miller, who allowed two sacks and
eight of the 16 pressures against Derek
Carr, according to Pro Football Focus.
“He had a couple pass sets that were uncom-
mon for him and we have to fix that fast,”
Gruden said. “He was isolated in some tough
one-on-one situations like he always is.
There were a couple pass sets that I’m sure he
wants back and we have to continue to work
with him on the practice field and become a
lot more consistent in that aspect.”
It’s been a tough rookie season for Miller,
who was selected 15th overall by the

Raiders. Miller was hampered by a knee
injury he played through earlier in the sea-
son and has appeared to lack the strength to
deal with NFL pass rushers at times.
According to Pro Football Focus, Miller has
allowed more sacks (14) and total pressures
(59) than any other player in the league. But
Gruden remains confident in Miller.
Poor protection has taken a toll on Carr,
who has been sacked 47 times this season after
having just 36 the previous two seasons com-
bined. The only Raiders to be sacked more in a
season since the merger are Rich Gannon with
49 in 1999 and Jeff George with 58 in 1997.
Carr has also been sacked at least three
times in seven straight games, the longest
single-season streak since Blake Bortles did
it in the final seven games of 2014.
“I think Derek has played great,” Gruden
said. “Somebody told me he had 3,700 yards
and 68 percent completions in 13 games.
That’s astonishing. With three new guards,
losing a right tackle, a feature back, three top
receivers. The guy is a hell of a player. The guy
is a great quarterback. We are very pleased and
proud of what he has done. We know we got to
get better around him, and that we will.”

“Nick’s played very well and he’s gotten

Garoppolo did in eight starts for San

While Garoppolo will no doubt be the

No. 2 even though Beathard was a fourth-
round pick the year Mullens entered as an
undrafted player.
“I think I can play in the league, that’s for
sure. I believe that,” Mullens said. “But, as
far as the extra stuff goes, I don’t really worry
too much about it.”

starting the sixth inning on Sept. 27 with
his 55th pitch of the night, retaliation for
Andrew Kittredge throwing a pitch behind
Austin Romine in the top half.
“We thought it was a very nice gesture by the
Yankees,” Sabathia’s agent, Kyle Thousand of
Roc Nation Sports, told The Associated Press
on Monday. “CC was very appreciative and is
really excited to come back next year and,
hopefully, win a championship.”
Neither side announced the decision,

which became evident when the $500,000
was included in the Yankees’ final luxury tax
payroll.
“It was something that we did very private
and weren’t looking to publicize, and I’ll
just leave it at that,” Yankees general man-
ager Brian Cashman said.
Sabathia hit Jake Bauers on the knuckles
of his right hand with an 88 mph fastball
with two outs in the fifth inning. Kittredge
threw a 93 mph fastball behind Romine’s
neck with his initial pitch in the sixth, and
plate umpire Vic Carapazza issued a warning
to both benches. Sabathia started out of the
Yankees dugout and had to be intercepted by
manager Aaron Boone.
After New York opened an 11-0 lead,
Sabathia hit Sucre the lower left leg with a
93 mph cutter on his first pitch in the bot-
tom half, causing Carapazza to eject the
pitcher and Boone.
“I don’t really make decisions based on
money, I guess,” Sabathia said after the NOAH K. MURRAY/USA TODAY SPORTS
game. “I just felt like it was the right thing Left-hander J.A. Happ re-signed with the New
to do.” York Yankees for two years at $34 million.

Gasol said the Grizzlies must talk
as a team about ways to be better.
“There’s a few things that we need

Curry’s scoring
Curry’s 3-pointer at the 7:37 mark
of the second quarter put him in the

Kerr knows the number is hardly
important to his star point guard,
saying: “He’ll probably be at
16,000 before too long, and won’t
be aware of that either.”
Curry is thrilled to join such elite
company.
“Just a pretty humbling experi-
ence in terms of how long I’ve been
here and all the success that we’ve
had in recent years, and individual
accolades and milestones come out
of that,” he said.
Chamberlain leads the way with

Chairman Jerome Powell — may be that the Zandi doesn’t expect the Fed to slow its

FED
Continued from page 1
announce its fourth rate hike of the year.
But after this week, no one is sure what it
will do. Neither, most likely, is the Fed
itself.
A confluence of factors — a global slow-
down, a U.S.-China trade war, still-mild
inflation, stomach-churning drops in stock
prices — may have left Fed officials weigh-
ing a shift in policy. Many analysts think
the Fed will signal Wednesday that it’s con-
sidering whether to slow or suspend its rate
hikes in 2019 to avoid weakening the econ-
omy too much. And some predict that the
rate increases, which began three years ago,
will end altogether next year.
In September, Fed officials collectively
forecast that they would raise rates three
times in 2019. But this week, in the view of
many analysts, the central bank could indi-
cate that no more than two rate hikes are
likely next year.
Yet the overarching message — in a state-
ment after its latest policy meeting, in
updated forecasts for the economy and inter-
est rates and in a news conference by

Fed plans to suit its rate policy to the latest
economic data. In Fed parlance, it will be
“data-dependent.”
The idea, some analysts say, is that the
Fed may want to pause in its credit-tighten-
ing to assess how the economy fares in the
coming months in light of the headwinds it
faces. Contributing to this view was a
speech Powell gave last month in which he
suggested that rates appear to be just below
the level the Fed calls “neutral,” where
they’re believed to neither stimulate growth
nor impede it. Powell’s observation sug-
gested that the Fed might be poised to soon
slow or halt its rate hikes.
For now, most U.S. economic barometers
are still showing strength. The unemploy-
ment rate is 3.7 percent, a 49-year low. The
economy is thought to have grown close to
3 percent this year, its best performance in
more than a decade. Consumers, the main
driver of the economy, are spending freely.
In such an environment, the Fed would
normally keep gradually raising rates to
make sure the economy didn’t overheat and
ignite inflation. But this time, risks to the
economy appear to be rising. From China
to Europe, major economies are weakening.
President Donald Trump’s trade conflict
with Beijing could, over time, undermine
the world’s two largest economies.
There are also fears that the brisk pace of
U.S. growth this year reflected something
of a sugar high, with the economy artificial-
ly pumped up by tax cuts and a boost in gov-
ernment spending. The benefit of that stim-
ulus will likely fade in 2019, slowing
growth to a more modest pace.
“Uncertainties about how the economy
will perform next year have ballooned,”
said Sung Won Sohn, chief economist at SS
Economics. “I think 2019 could be a diffi-
cult year for the Fed.”
Sohn is forecasting that after expanding
nearly 3 percent this year, the economy will
grow closer to a middling 2 percent in
2019. As a result, like many economists, he
predicts that the Fed will raise rates only
twice next year.
David Jones, an economist and author of
several books on the Fed, goes further. He
foresees just one rate increase in 2019.
“The Fed is going to be much more cau-
tious about rate hikes next year as the econ-
omy slows significantly,” Jones said. “The
Fed will truly be data dependent as econom-
ic forecasting gets much murkier.”
Mark Zandi, chief economist at Moody’s
Analytics, is more hopeful about growth in
2019 because he thinks the stimulus from
tax cuts and government spending increases
won’t yet fade significantly. As a result,
credit tightening much next year. But by
2020, Zandi foresees a sharp drop in eco-
nomic momentum and a rising risk of a
recession.
“While the Fed will probably signal this
week that they only expect two rate hikes
next year, I think their forecast will be
wrong and they will end up raising rates
three times,” Zandi said. “I think the econo-
my will remain strong enough that unem-
ployment will fall further and wage pres-
sures will rise.”
Lawrence White, an economics professor
at New York University’s Stern School, said
he expects the Fed to remain mindful of the
mistakes of the 1970s, when officials
allowed inflation to erupt, requiring sharply
higher interest rates and a painful recession
to root out.
“We have not had such low unemployment
in almost 50 years,” White said. “The Fed
has to be cautious.”
Economists appear unified, though, in the
view that whatever the Fed does, it won’t be
influenced by the attacks Trump has made on
the central bank and on Powell personally
since the stock market began tumbling this
fall. In a highly unusual move for a presi-
dent, Trump has publicly called the Fed and
its string of rate hikes this year “my
biggest threat.”
On Monday, Trump reiterated his view via
Twitter. “It is incredible that with a very
strong dollar and virtually no inflation, the
outside world blowing up around us,” Trump
tweeted, “the Fed is even considering yet
another interest rate hike.”
Powell, who was Trump’s hand-picked
choice to be chairman, has stressed that the
Fed will pursue its mandate of managing
rates to maximize employment and stabi-
lize prices, regardless of any outside criti-
cism.
“This is a Fed that has gone through some
pretty heavy criticism during the financial
crisis, and they kept doing what they need-
ed to do,” said Diane Swonk, chief econo-
mist at Grant Thornton. “At this stage of the
game, the president’s criticism is just
noise.”

fulfill a dream of sharing the story of
the two-act Christmas ballet. Noting
the role is an aspiration for many
young girls dancing at the San
Francisco Ballet School, where the
14-year-old has attended class for the
last five years, Treanor acknowledged
her good fortune in being able to rep-
resent the school in the pivotal role
not just once, but twice.
Assigned the role of young Clara for
the second consecutive year, Treanor
is hoping she can build on her experi-
ence in the role to portray the emo-
tions of the character who journeys
through a dreamlike, Christmas-
themed landscape with a colorful cast
of characters.
“Just being in the Opera House on
that stage again is really surreal and
seeing all the smiling faces in the
audience … it brings back a lot of
memories of when I was younger,” she
said.
Treanor is one of four ballet dancers
chosen to perform the role of young
Clara for the some 30 shows the San
Francisco Ballet has planned this year.
In preparing to perform in the role for
a portion of the shows and as butterfly
or dragonfly in several other shows
this year, Treanor said she has been

housing proposals adjacent to transit
stops and build financing for afford-
able housing initiatives, with a focus
on leveraging public land to build such
projects.
The efforts are designed to serve the
thousands throughout the Bay Area
struggling to afford the skyrocketing
cost of living, while also clearing
congestion from clogged highways
and streets.
For his part, Slocum recognized the
lofty goals laid out in the plan.
“It’s a big lift,” he said.
Designed over nearly 18 months,
the compact was crafted collaborative-
ly by officials from the MTC as well as
Association of Bay Area Governments
following consultation with many in
the private and public sectors. The
upcoming MTC vote is not final
approval and Slocum suggested the
decision could give way to further
examination.
To finance the variety of efforts, the
proposal calls for as much as $2.5 bil-
lion annually for the next 15 years —
$1.5 billion of which should be raised

practicing for three to four hours every
weekday and devoting even more time
to the production as she rehearses with
company members in the weeks lead-
ing up to the performances.
Already familiar with the technical
aspects of the performance, Treanor
said she has enjoyed turning some of
her focus this year on bringing out the
emotions of the character she is play-
ing in her performance. She said her
favorite scene to perform is one in
which a battle ensues between an army
led by the Nutcracker and another led
by a Mouse King. Filled with drama,
the energy of the scene can be con-
veyed through gestures and facial
expressions, said Treanor, who noted
portraying a wide range of emotions
in the battle scene can be more chal-
lenging but also engaging for the
audience than simply perfecting the
technique.
“Last year, I felt like my main focus
was not to mess up on the steps,” she
said. “But this year, I feel like since I
know the steps … I can work on actu-
ally putting myself in the character of
Clara, putting myself in her shoes and
in her emotions.”
A freshman at St. Ignatius College
Preparatory in San Francisco, Treanor
said she does her best to compartmen-
with regional and local measures. The
rest could be provided by the state and
federal government.
Money could be raised by taxes such
as those levied on property owners
who keep homes vacant; parcel taxes;
commercial linkage fees; corporate
head taxes; redevelopment funds; sales
tax increases; general obligation
bonds or more, according to the pro-
posal.
Slocum admired the audacious nature
of the plan, with a belief that uncon-
ventional solutions are required to
combat issues so severe.
“I personally think it is time for
some bold vision,” he said.
He balanced that perspective though
by noting the substantial opposition
which is likely to rise against the ini-
tiative.
“It’s asking a lot,” said Slocum, who
noted the challenges local officials
faced in drumming up support for
Measure W, the most recent tax pro-
posal designed to fund transportation
improvements in San Mateo County.
With an expectation that the ambi-
tious regional proposal would face
even more staunch opposition,
Slocum said officials must be cog-
nizant of voter tax exhaustion when
looking for financing solutions. He
also noted the likelihood that any

so she can fit her homework and piano
practice in after dinner most week-
nights. Because most of her peers at
the San Francisco Ballet School are
her age, she said practicing with pro-
fessional company members in the
San Francisco Ballet can be nerve-
wracking, but is ultimately a learning
experience.
“When they watch [me], it kind of
heightens my awareness of my tech-
niques and my expressions,” she said.
“But I feel like it helps me to become
better at my role.”
Though she acknowledged spots in a
professional ballet company are rare,
Treanor isn’t ruling out the possibili-
ty of pursuing ballet after high school
if given the opportunity.
Having begun rehearsals for the per-
formances in October, Treanor said
she and the other performers are look-
ing forward to sharing what they’ve
been working on with their audiences
in the coming weeks.
“I think that it’s the best holiday
tradition, ” she said. “I think that
every family should share something
so magical as this.”
The San Francisco Ballet’s produc-
tion of the Nutcrack er will begin Dec.
12 and end Dec. 29 and be held at the
War Memorial Opera House at 301 Van

future tax proposal coming from the
compact could face competition from
other local financial ballot measures
as well.
In recognizing the potential chal-
lenges, Slocum bolstered his advocacy
by suggesting that it could work in
tandem with a variety of other efforts
looking to improve the quality of life
locally.
“I don’t think that there can be only
one solution,” he said. “So we’ve all
got to come together on this.”
Collaboration will be essential in
attempting to address such an expan-
sive slate of issues though, he added.
“There is no question that housing
and transportation are two sides of the
same coin and it will take a lot of
money and a lot of cooperation,” he
said.
With that understanding, Slocum
said he is intrigued to see the proposal
take shape following the upcoming
vote.
“It will be interesting and we’ll see
how it goes,” he said.
The Metropolitan Transportation
Commission meets 3:35 p. m.
Wednesday, Dec. 19, at the Yerba

Christmas tree lot, sleds, a large red truck,
oversized candy canes and fake snow.

This week the movie “Elf” is playing and
some nights, as many as 10 neighbors or
passersby will stay the full hour and a half.
Homeowners Ted and Marie Giouzelis are
responsible for the elaborate display and
have also made by hand some of the attrac-
tions.
“I’m all about Christmas. I could do this
all year long but I don’t think [my husband]
LOCAL
would do it with me,” Marie Giouzelis said.
She begins the countdown to Christmas in
July. “It’s all about people being happy and
families coming by and bringing the kids.
Just to hear the joy and what people say
about the house — for me, there’s nothing
better to hear.”
The couple started small more than 20
years ago with just a strand or two of lights
and one reindeer, and the decorations have
been multiplying ever since. Marie
Giouzelis started the tradition, but it quick-
ly became a team effort.
“You got to keep your wife happy,” Ted
Giouzelis said. “We love Christmas and our
decorations make people smile. The people
in the area are always happy to see them go
up and they bring us gifts and thank-you
cards. When we tell people where we live we
say ‘the decorated house on Ralston’ and
everyone knows it.”
The couple begins decorating shortly
after Thanksgiving and the work spans two
weeks. They own The Fisherman’s Taverna
restaurant in Half Moon Bay and a catering
business for schools called The
LunchMaster and recruit some of their work-
ers for the installation process. They also
rely on a company warehouse to store the
decorations and it takes three truckloads to
transport everything.
In the couple’s 20-plus year decorating
tenure, they’ve only neglected to decorate
their home one year, shortly after Ted
Giouzelis’ father passed away.
“All the neighbors and others stopped by
to find out what happened that year,” he
said.
And in all those years of decorating,
they’ve never had a problem with theft.
Passing drivers often slam on their brakes
to admire the work and Ted Giouzelis said
he’s happy to offer pleasing visuals to the
passersby stuck in traffic on Ralston.  outside and looking at this is what I love.”

He said the setup is all original, and the
couple avoids most store-bought decora-
tions, especially blowups.
“My wife doesn’t care for blowups,” he
said.
This degree of decorating comes at a
price. Ted Giouzelis said his electricity bill
for December once hit $1,600, but he’s got-
ten it down to about half of that since he
started using LED lights.
It’s hard to find any remaining space on
Giouzelis said she’s been lobbying Ted
Giouzelis to also cover the top of the roof
in lights. The only reason they haven’t yet
is because the roof is made of delicate tiles
that would break if anyone walked on
them.
“I want it bigger next year, ” Marie
Giouzelis said. “The older I get I become
more of a kid, I love it more. Just sitting
