The southwest lot of the three corners site at Third Avenue and El Camino Real near downtown San Mateo is under construction
while the other two lots remain vacant.

Progress on three corners site

Former gas stations near downtown San Mateo being developed
By Samantha Weigel
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

San Mateos three corners site, a

prime juncture long blighted by the
vacant parcels of former gas stations,
is proving ripe for redevelopment near
the heart of downtown.
The three parcels at the intersection
of Third Avenue and El Camino Real are
in different stages with a flurry of construction at one and little action at
another.
Due to the sites proximity to downtown, the intersection is considered a
major gateway to the citys busy busi-

ness district and could collectively

provide 41,000 square feet of office
space, nearly 20,500 square feet of
retail space as well as 11 residential
units.
City officials, particularly those
whove seen the two east lots sit
vacant for nearly two decades, were
thrilled when all three separate property owners approached the city with
plans last year, said Senior Planner
Julia Klein.
The timing for all three, it was
extraordinary. The city had been very
very interested in this project for over
20 years, when the first gas station

closed down, Klein said.

The publics and City Councils
interest in having something done
with the small lots even prompted a
discussion about enacting a vacant lot
ordinance to deter blight at the entryway into downtown.
But action has begun as all three
sites are in various phases after undergoing a joint review by the Planning
Commission in December 2014. Plans
for the northeast lot have been
approved and the developers must
secure building permits before starting

Frustrated with a dearth of qualified substitute teachers in

the Redwood City Elementary School District,
Superintendent John Baker is calling on the local community to get involved.
Engaged district parents are invited Tuesday, Dec. 1, to a
meeting with Baker in the district office at 6:30 p.m., to
learn more about the effort to develop a new group which
will work to build a bridge between school administrators
and Redwood City residents.
Baker is interested in forming the Superintendents Parent
Advisory Council, which will be comprised of one or two
parents from each district campus who are willing to volunteer their time to address issues facing the school district.

For four decades, the cast-concrete

But now the park is gone, making
way for a shopping center and hotel on

So the beloved statute is going into
storage across the bay in Oakland until
it can return to the Hunters Point

happen until 2018, said Dave

The estimated cost to move and

South San Francisco eyes third Costco

Business center would rejuvenate former Levitz building
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

A third Costco mega store may soon be

opening in South San Francisco, under a
proposal by the corporate wholesaler to
set up shop in large building which has sat
vacant for more than a decade.
The South San Francisco Planning
Commission will hear a proposal during a
meeting Wednesday, Dec. 2, to lay the
groundwork for approval of a Costco
Business Center at 900 Dubuque Ave., at
the former home of Levitz furniture store
east of Highway 101 and south of Oyster
Point Boulevard.
The proposed store would cater to a different audience than the other two Costcos
in South San Francisco, as the business
centers are designed to offer supplies and
goods to small companies, restaurants,
offices, convenience stores and other similar businesses, according to a city report.
Business centers are open to individuals
who are members of the Costco system,
but the large stores are not tailored to compete with the wholesale locations which
sell food, clothing, appliances, gas and
other home goods to local residents.
The other traditional Costco stores in
South San Francisco are located at 1600 El
Camino Real, and east of Highway 101 at
451 S. Airport Blvd. Should it ultimately
be approved, the Costco Business Center
would be the only store of its type in the
Bay Area, other than another location in
Hayward.
The business center is interested in filling the 156, 660-square-foot building
which has sat vacant on 7.62 acres of
property on Dubuque Avenue since the
large furniture store closed in 2002.

Comment on
or share this story at
www.smdailyjournal.com
Planning commissioners cannot grant
final approval to the project during the
meeting Wednesday, but only make a recommendation to the South San Francisco
City Council.
Should the business center ultimately be
approved, local companies, which rely on
it for goods, may have increased access to
quick on-site delivery.
Nearly half of Costco Business Center
transactions occur online or over the
phone, according to a city report, and the
purchases are typically eligible for delivery from the warehouse by the next day.
Due in part to the popularity of the home
delivery option, which reduces the amount
of cars driving to the business center to
pick up purchases, Costco has requested a
reduction in the amount of parking spaces
a similarly sized business would be
required to offer at its property, according
to the report.
Typically a large store the size of the
proposed business center would be required
to offer 370 parking spaces, but Costco
has offered 335, which the company feels
is adequate, according to the report.
Based on parking studies at four other
business center sites throughout the state,
the average peak demand requires 235
parking spots. The 335 proposed to be
offered in South San Francisco is more
than enough to address similar use, according to the report.
Of the 335 proposed parking spots to be
offered at the site, 34 would be for use by

Costco trucks, which speaks to the popularity of the stores delivery program,
according to the report.
Since such a large percentage of sales
for a Costco Business Center are for the
delivery businesses, there is a lower
demand for parking than for a typical
retail use, or for a core Costco, according
to the report.
Further parking concerns may be alleviated through an effort by Costco to encourage store employees to take alternative
forms of transportation to work, according to the report.
Incentives offered by the company to its
employees who are willing to carpool,
bike, ride public transportation or take
other alternative forms of transport to
work should reduce single occupant car
trips by 28 percent, according to the
report.
Considering the opportunity to offer a
unique service to local businesses, as well
as rejuvenate a large building which has
been empty for roughly 13 years, the business center could be a significant new
asset to the economic growth of South San
Francisco, according to the report.
The project proposal should be a benefit to both the immediate vicinity, and to
the city, according to the report. The
existing building, landscaping and signage will be rehabilitated and the longvacant site will be activated with a retail
use that will serve businesses locally and
regionally.

Californias top oil regulator quits after controversies

By Ellen Knickmeyer
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO Californias

chief oil regulator announced his resignation on Monday after 17 months as
head of the embattled agency, including a criticized episode in which he
directed state workers to investigate
the oil and gas potential of Gov. Jerry
Browns family ranch.
Steve Bohlen, the states oil and gas
supervisor, is leaving the Division of
Oil, Gas and Geothermal Resources to
return to the Lawrence Livermore
National Laboratory research center,
Browns office said in a statement.
State officials did not give a reason
for Bohlens resignation, but the governors statement said Bohlen had been
on loan from his work at the research
center.
Bohlen took the job at the states oil
and gas division, which is charged
with protecting the public and environment from oilfield pollution, at a
time when the agency already was

under scrutiny from the U. S.

Environmental Protection Agency for
failing to fully enforce federal safedrinking water laws on oilfield operations.
Additionally, days after Brown
appointed Bohlen in June 2014, the
governor and the governors aides
asked Bohlen to have oil and gas regulators research and map out the oil, gas
and mineral potential and history of
the Brown family ranch in Northern
California, the Associated Press reported earlier this month.
Bohlen and Brown aides this month
defended the oil agencys work for
Brown family private property, saying
it was legal and normal, and that Brown
had no interest in drilling on his family land.
However, the oil regulator who prepared the map for Brown filed a
whistleblower complaint over being
made to do the work, her lawyer confirmed to the AP. Former oil regulators
and oil-industry veterans told the AP
the state oil work for Brown was unique

because of the custom map with

drilling information and color-coded
geological records and legends, and
because of the reports conclusion by
state regulators that the area of Browns
family ranch was unlikely to warrant
any drilling or mining in the future.
Bohlen told The Los Angeles Times
this month that Brown also directed
him in June 2014 to keep the personal
work done for Brown out of email, citing open-records laws.
State officials were unable to produce
any other examples of state regulators
mapping out the petroleum, mineral
and geology of land for personal purposes, and records showed the state oil
agency specifically rejecting requests
for maps from a state lawmakers office
and from a private individual.
The states oilfield regulation agency
has had a series of top-level turnovers
at least since 2011, when the U.S. EPA
began stepping up pressure on the
states oil regulators to enforce rules
meant to prevent oilfield pollution of
underground water reserves.

The man accused in the shooting rampage at a Colorado Planned

hearing,

Dear could face other charges, but
he did not elaborate.
Police have declined to speculate on a motive for the attack. A
law enforcement official said Dear
told authorities, no more baby

official spoke on condition of
anonymity because the official
was not allowed to publicly discuss the ongoing investigation.
Planned Parenthood has said
witnesses believe the gunman was
motivated by his opposition to
abortion.

WASHINGTON A top House

leader predicted Monday that
Washington will avoid stumbling
into a government shutdown next
week over a tea party-backed drive
to take away Planned Parenthoods
funding.
Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy
added, however, that Congress may
need additional time to work
through a massive, $1.1 trillion
catchall spending bill that tops the
agenda as lawmakers return to
Capitol Hill for a two- or three-week
sprint to finish this years session.
McCarthy,
R-Calif.,
told
reporters that I do not hear people
shutting the government down over
it right now, referring to demands
by some conservatives to attach
language to defund Planned
Parenthood to the must-do spending
bill. Such a move would guarantee
gridlock. Other business includes
highway spending, taxes and a
rewrite of the George W. Bush-era
No Child Left Behind education law.
The Senates top Democrat, exiting a meeting with the chambers
GOP leader, offered a downcast
assessment on prospects for a successful wrap-up of such a long roster
of unfinished business.
Im not optimistic about any-

t h i n g .
Seriously, said
Minority Leader
Harry Reid, DNev., as he left
Majority Leader
M i t c h
M c C o n n e l l s
office after a 20Kevin McCarthy minute meeting.
Going to wait
and see what happens.
There are less than two weeks
until a deadline to pass the massive
spending bill, which would fund
every Cabinet agency and avoid a
holiday season government shutdown. If the process doesnt go
smoothly, a last-minute temporary
funding measure would be required
to keep the government open when
the current stopgap measure expires
Dec. 11. Im hopeful to get it all
done and voted on by the 11th. If
not, were here until the 18th and it
wont make any difference. Well
get it done, McCarthy said.
The so-called omnibus spending
bill represents a challenge for new
House Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wis.,
who took over the top House job
after former Speaker John Boehner,
R-Ohio, was forced out this fall over
his penchant for looking to
Democrats to help pass major legislation like year-end spending bills,
among other reasons.

Group robs man

at Redwood City motel
Three women and a juvenile male were
arrested for robbing a man over the weekend
at a motel reportedly known for prostitution.
Kristina Lujan, 25, Kiara Couch, 21, and
Taqusha Jones, 32, were arrested for felony
robbery at the Good Night Inn Saturday
morning, said District Attorney Steve
Wagstaffe.
The victim, a 31-year-old Redwood City
man, arrived at the inn with $1,700 in cash
around 8 a.m. to meet a woman he met
online via MocoSpace, Wagstaffe said.
Once in the room, Lujan turned off the
lights and asked the victim if he was a
police officer. She became verbally aggressive when the victim suspected she was not
the woman he chatted with online,
Wagstaffe said.
Couch, Jones and the juvenile then came
out of the bathroom and began to attack the
victim. The juvenile pushed the victim to
the floor, pulled out a handgun and hit him
with it, Wagstaffe said. He will likely face
different charges due to the weapon,
Wagstaffe said.

Black pastors press Trump on his

tone during closed-door meeting
By Jill Colvin
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK Dozens of black pastors

pressed Republican presidential front-runner
Donald Trump on Monday to address what
some called his use of racially charged rhetoric, with several describing a meeting that
became tense at times as attendees raised
concerns about his blunt language.
While some left the gathering at Trumps
skyscraper in midtown Manhattan with
hopes their message had resonated, Trump
said afterward he had no plans to change his
approach, which he said had taken him to
first position in every single poll.
The beautiful thing about the meeting is
that they didnt really ask me to change the
tone, Trump said. I think they really want
to see victory, because ultimately it is about,
we want to win and we want to win together.
At a rally later Monday in Macon,
Georgia, Trump told a nearly all-white audience of about 5,000 that the meeting was
inspiring and unbelievable.

It was a really terrific day, he said.

But several pastors who met in New York
with the billionaire real estate mogul, who
has held a consistent lead in preference polls
of GOP voters for several months due in large
part to his aggressive style of campaigning,
said the session was a bit more complicated.
Bishop George Bloomer, who traveled to
the gathering from North Carolina, said he
arrived in New York with concerns about the
racial comments that have been made and the
insensitive comments that have been made,
including an incident earlier this month in
which a black protester was roughed up by
Trump supporters at a rally in Birmingham,
Alabama.
Trump said after the incident, Maybe he
should have been roughed up because it was
absolutely disgusting what he was doing.
I asked him: Are you a racist? People are
saying that about you, Bloomer said. If
you are seeking the African-American community to support you, at the least, youre
not helping with these kind of things that
are going on.

Turkey wont apologize to

Russia over downing plane
By Jamey Keaton

Ahmet Davutoglu also said
Turkey hopes Moscow will reconsider

World leaders gathered in Paris Monday for the start of the World Climate Change Conference 2015.

World leaders gather to try to

save Earth from overheating
By Karl Ritter
and Sylvie Corbert
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LE BOURGET, France With

dramatic vows to save future generations from an overheated planet, the largest gathering ever of
world leaders began two weeks of
talks Monday aimed at producing
the most far-reaching pact yet to
reduce greenhouse-gas emissions
and avert environmental havoc.
We should ask what will we say
to our grandchildren if we fail,
British Prime Minister David
Cameron said as the U.N. climate
summit opened under heavy security on the outskirts of Paris, two
weeks after the extremist attacks
that left 130 people dead. Instead

of making excuses tomorrow, lets

take action today.
Even before the gathering, more
than 180 countries pledged to cut
or curb their emissions, but scientific analyses show that much bigger reductions would be needed to
limit man-made warming of the
Earth to 2 degrees Centigrade (3.8
degrees Fahrenheit) over preindustrial times, the internationally agreed-upon goal.
The biggest issue facing the 151
heads of state and government at
the summit is who should bear
most of the burden of closing that
gap: wealthy Western nations that
have polluted the most historically, or developing countries like
China and India that are now the
biggest and third-biggest emitters

of greenhouse gases?
Addressing climate change
should not deny the legitimate
needs of developing countries to
reduce poverty and improve living
standards, Chinese leader Xi
Jinping told the conference.
The last major climate agreement, the 1997 Kyoto Protocol,
required only rich countries to cut
emissions, and the U. S. never
signed on. Since then, global temperatures and sea levels have continued to rise, and the Earth has
seen an extraordinary run of
extreme weather, including severe
droughts and storms.
This new round of talks seeks to
produce an agreement that would
require all countries, rich and poor,
to take action.

The Californian insurance

Editor,
I could not gure out why an uninsured person in California, getting
practically all the monthly member

culprits are the co-pay and the out-ofpocket costs that magically show up
on your bill every time you get near a

young, invincible person buy this
costly insurance that almost never
pays out? They would not, all
throughout the United States.
So lets make some more assumptions on our plight in California.
What happens when, not if, the

New pollution issue in Pacifica

Editor,
I am writing to express my concern
and to invite my neighbors to take
action on a pollution issue in
Pacica. This new community issue is
multifaceted.
The new highway over Pacica
brings additional noise, air and water
pollution to our once peaceful community. The frequency of the overhead
air trafc has increased, but there are
also ights over homes during critical quiet hours (1 a.m. to 6 a.m.). In
addition to noise pollution, aviation
fuel is a serious concern, and dumping is a real possibility.
The World Health Organization says
air pollution is the single largest
health risk on our planet. With record
low precipitation, wildres, over
40,000 SFO ights per month and
hundreds per day over Pacica, there
is no relief from dirty air. San
Francisco owns and operates SFO in
San Mateo County: they collect revenue, but pollute Pacica. Are we seeing the increased revenue that aligns
with the increase in air trafc?
Additionally, shouldnt we be allowed
say when new trafc routes have a
direct negative impact on our quality
of life and health? Our unique topography and coastal environment mean
sound and air pollution carry differently here; these conditions must be
recognized to fully understand the

Editor,
Both Democrats and Republicans
seem to be bewildered by Black Lives
Matter protesters in the streets of
American cities. Your columnist, Mr.
Jonathan Madison, voice of the
Republican party in San Mateo
County, is very articulate in pointing
out to readers that his partys leaders
are noble and patriotic.
He is indeed a learned and well
informed individual. In praising the
Republican party, he is fond of quoting Plato. But why is he so silent
about the subject of Black Lives
Matter? Perhaps it would help if Mr.
Madison read Between the World and
Me by Ta-Nehisi Coates. I think Mr.
Madison could learn a lot from Mr.
Coates. Who knows, he might even
become a Democrat.

are peaceful and tolerant people and
have nothing whatsoever to do with
terrorism. Mrs. Clinton avoids
acknowledging recent events in

Endless iterations of Islam is

Journal, reminded me of the housing

issues in the Peninsula. I was a resident of Redwood City for 15 years and
recently moved to San Jose.
In Redwood City, rent prices have
doubled and, in certain cases, apartments are only designated to employees of large industrial technology
companies. This privilege of corporate employees is actually causing the
rise in the cost of housing. Landlords
look to rent to tech employees, who
can afford higher fees.
Many apartment residents have
been moved out by landlords. The
landlords goal is to remodel and then
double the cost of their apartments.
But they also implement unethical
policies. I have heard different concerns over and over again and Ive
found that it is an issue affecting
everyone. Ive heard the absurd
requirements of landlords when I was
looking for a new apartment back in
May. The landlord would not rent out
his apartment to families with children, and required a payment of the
rst two months rent, and a deposit,
for a total of $9,000. Who can afford
that?
It is necessary to implement a local
policy to protect low-income and
middle-class families. We need to get
involved and advocate for a policy to
put a stop to the rise of housing
prices which is hurting our communities and families.

The politics of fear

O

ne of my favorite biblical passages is Psalm

46:1-4. The passage reminds us that love is the
single greatest source of our strength and refuge
in moments of despair. Thus, we must refuse to allow fear
to blind our moral compass in the midst of even the darkest trials and tribulations.
That passage comes to mind when I think of President
Franklin D. Roosevelts famous inaugural address to the
nation in 1933. At the outset of Roosevelts inaugural
address, he ardently proclaimed that: The only thing we
have to fear is fear itself. Roosevelts fearless words
could not have come at a more fearful time for the 13 million Americans who were unemployed at the height of the
Great Depression, when hundreds of thousands were forced
to succumb to a life of inescapable poverty. Beyond that,
about half of the nations banks
had collapsed.
Roosevelt went on to explain
that terror could inevitably
paralyze needed efforts to
advance the nation and that our
nation would endure only by the
spirit of courage, not fear.
Nearly a century after
Roosevelts inaugural address,
you and I have much to fear
today. We are constantly
reminded of the troubling uncertainty with regard to our
nations economic future and
Jonathan Madison
job prospects. The fear of student loan debt increasingly deters young adults from pursuing higher education, which can limit valuable job
prospects. We also share personal fears, such as the dark
prospect of losing a loved one, or that we will lose an
ongoing battle with a physical illness or ailment. The
most prevalent appears to be our fear of foreign attacks
perpetrated on our beloved soil.
The fact is that each of us encounters fear at various
stages of our lives. Fear, in fact, comes with being
human. What matters most is how we respond to those
fears. That is what determines the outcome in our lives.
History tells us that the worlds most severe atrocities
are shaped by our collective reactions under the plague of
fear, rather than the guiding hand of love. It was fear that
caused several colonial Western European nations to
enslave much of the African continent. During World War
II, Adolf Hitler used fear to enshrine a deep hatred for
Jewish people in the minds of Nazi Germany a hatred
that culminated in the genocide of approximately 6 million Jewish people.
Although Roosevelts reassuring rhetoric was timely as
commander-in-chief at the height of the Great Depression,
history tells us that he did not follow his own rhetoric
years later in WWII. Following the attack on Pearl Harbor,
Roosevelt supported policies that placed Japanese immigrants into internment camps and turned away thousands
of Jewish people who were subsequently slaughtered.
Today, I would hope that our nation would nd such policies unspeakable. However, I have been saddened in recent
weeks to hear outright xenophobic rhetoric from candidates such as Donald Trump that have exploited the legitimate fears of the American people for their own caddy
political short term gain.
Approximately 65 percent of the American people fear
allowing Syrian immigrants to nd refuge in our country
under the belief that some refugees could be terrorists. It is
important to note that Syrian refugees are desperately
looking to nd solace from unspeakable terror perpetrated
by terrorist organizations such as the Islamic State
Terrorist Organization. While some candidates vehemently exploit the issue for purposes of political gain, at least
some elected leaders are working to nd a meaningful
solution.
On Nov. 19, U.S. Rep. Paul Ryan, R-Wisconsin, led the
passage of bipartisan legislation requiring the approval
of senior national security ofcials on each visa granted
to incoming Syrian refugees in efforts to ensure security
and accountability.
House Speaker Ryans bill reafrms the great need to
protect and enforce our borders. At the same time, the bill
rejects the logic of turning away Syrian immigrants simply because we fear terrorism. After all, the very goal of
terrorism is to incite fear. The day we allow the fear of terrorism to paralyze us is the day terrorists have won. It
may be the fear of going to the mall for fear that a bomb
could go off at any given moment, or the fear of going to
a church or a movie theater where a fatal shooting can
occur. Whatever the fear may be, we cannot allow fear to
paralyze us.
Our nations true courage will arise the day we cease
from allowing fear to drive our nations most critical policies. Such fear has the means not only to paralyze us, but
also to destroy us from within. Let us work to keep that
day from coming for our beloved nation.

Business brief

NEW YORK Stocks closed modestly

lower on Monday, as traders returned
from the Thanksgiving holiday to
focus on the early signs of how the
holiday shopping season may turn out
and where interest rates may go in the
U.S. and Europe.
The Dow Jones industrial average
lost 78.57 points, or 0.4 percent, to
17,719.92. The Standard & Poors 500
index lost 9.70 points, or 0.5 percent,
to 2,080.41 and the Nasdaq composite
lost 18.86 points, or 0.4 percent, to
5,108.67.
Consumer discretionary stocks were
among the biggest decliners, including the big department stores like
Macys, Kohls, Wal-Mart and Target.
Initial data from the first holiday
shopping weekend showed shoppers
were not going to stores as much as
last year.
Preliminary data from ShopperTrak
showed
in-store
sales
on
Thanksgiving and Black Friday were
$12.1 billion, down from $12.3 billion the year earlier. This despite an
economic climate that should be inherently good for Americans to shop in,
including lower gas prices from a year
ago and an improving job market.
We believe Black Friday has gone
from a period of management excite-

ment to one of anguish, Nomura retail

analysts Simeon Siegel, Gene
Vladimirov and Julie Kim wrote in a
note to investors.
Investment bank analysts observed
the department stores having to do
deep discounting to attract shoppers to
their stores. But data from research
firms like ChannelAdvisor showed
strong growth in sales online, which
could suggest consumers decided to
spend online instead of in brick-andmortar shops.
Consumer discretionary stocks fell 1
percent, compared to the 0.5 percent
drop in the S&P 500. Some of the more
notable decliners were Macys, which
fell 91 cents, or 2. 3 percent, to
$39.08, Wal-Mart, which fell $1.05,
or 1.8 percent, to $58.84 and Urban
Outfitters, which fell $1.25, or 5.3
percent, to $22.40. Even online retail
giant Amazon dropped $8.46, or 1.3
percent, to $664.80.
While its too early to make the call
about how 2015 holiday revenues (and
margins) will unfold, our survey
results for the Black Friday weekend
dont add a lot of confidence for the
broad retail landscape, Dave Weiner
and Sindhu Chitturi, retail analysts for
Deutsche Bank, wrote in a note to
investors.
More broadly, investors are also
focused on this weeks European
Central Bank meeting and the release

of U.S. jobs data.

The European Central Bank is widely
expected to give the regions economy
another dose of stimulus as it tries to
keep a recovery going and get inflation closer to 2 percent. The stimulus
is likely to include increasing the
amount banks have to pay to park
money at the ECB, giving them an
incentive to lend it out instead.
While the ECB moves toward
increasing stimulus, the Federal
Reserve is getting ready to start raising interest rates for the first time
since June 2006. A series of U.S. economic reports this week, culminating
with Fridays jobs survey for
November, could cement investors
expectations for a rate hike at the Feds
next policy meeting in mid-December.
Unless this report is a total disaster, I think its very, very likely the
Fed is going to raise in December,
said Scott Wren, senior equity strategist at the Wells Fargo Investment
Institute.
The policy divergence between the
two central banks has weighed on the
euro and sent the dollar higher. On
Monday the euro fell to $1.0572, its
lowest level since April. It traded at
$1.0591 late Friday.
Major U. S. stock indexes ended
November with slight gains. The S&P

How can people safely take control from self-driving cars?

Montana woman sues

Costco, supplier in E. coli outbreak

By Justin Pritchard

SEATTLE A Montana woman is suing Costco and its

California vegetable supplier because of the E. coli illness
she contracted after eating chicken salad she bought at the
companys Bozeman store.
The lawsuit filed was Monday in the Butte division of
U.S. District Court by Minneapolis law firm Pritzker Olsen
and its associates at Bozeman law firm Beck & Amsden.
Kelsey Lee Thielbahr, a 30-year-old physical therapy
assistant from Gallatin County, Montana got sick after eating chicken salad she purchased on Oct. 18 at the Costco in
Bozeman.

LOS ANGELES New cars that can

steer and brake themselves risk lulling
people in the drivers seat into a false
sense of security and even to sleep.
One way to keep people alert may be
providing distractions that are now
illegal.
That was one surprising finding
when researchers put Stanford
University students in a simulated selfdriving car to study how they reacted
when their robo-chauffer needed help.
The experiment was one in a growing number that assesses how cars can
safely hand control back to a person
when their self-driving software and
sensors are overwhelmed or overmatched. With some models already

distance from other traffic, and

automakers pushing for more automation, the car-to-driver handoff is a big
open question.
The elimination of distracted driving
is a major selling point for the technology. But in the Stanford experiment, reading or watching a movie
helped keep participants awake.
Among the 48 students put in the drivers seat, 13 who were instructed to
monitor the car and road began to nod
off. Only three did so when told to
watch a video or read from a tablet.
Alertness mattered when students
needed to grab the wheel because a simulated car or pedestrian got in the way.
Theres no consensus on the right
car-to-driver handoff approach: the
Stanford research suggests engaging
people with media could help, while
some automakers are marketing vehi-

cles with limited self-driving features

that will slow the car if they detect a
person has stopped paying attention
to the road.
Though research is ongoing, it
appears that people need at least 5 seconds to take over if theyre not
totally checked out.
Self-driving car experts at Google,
which is pursuing the technology
more aggressively than any automaker, concluded that involving humans
would make its cars less safe. Googles
solution is a prototype with no steering wheel or pedals human control
would be limited to go and stop buttons.
Meanwhile, traditional automakers
are phasing in the technology.
Mercedes and Toyota sell cars that
can hit the brakes and stay in their
lane.

A legacy in the making

By Terry Bernal

Athlete of the Week

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Menlo School looks to be on the verge of

producing back-to-back cross country legacies.
2015 graduate Lizzie Lacy now a freshman
at Amherst College in Massachusetts wound
down her stellar high school career with the
Menlo girls cross country team by taking third
place in the Division IV race at the CIF State
Championships last season.
This year, another burgeoning Menlo legacy
has emerged from the boys cross country ranks
in Robert Miranda, who took ninth place in the
Division IV at state Saturday at Fresnos
Woodward Park with a time of 15 minutes, 40.2
seconds a performance that has also earned
him Daily Journal Athlete of the Week honors.
Rob is ahead of Lizzie because, as a sophomore, Lizzie was like 30th in the state, so it
wasnt even close, Menlo head coach Jorge
Chen said. But with girls and boys its kind of
different, because the way coaches train athletes, gender is different quite a bit. Its actually
harder to place higher as a younger boy than a
younger girl.
Chen is of the opinion the best is yet to come
for Miranda. And Chen has good reason to
believe so. Still just a sophomore, Miranda was
the only underclassman to medal in Saturdays
Division IV race.
Medaling at the state finals was a goal of
Mirandas from the outset of the season. It may
have seemed like a reach, being as he finished
28th as a freshman last year. But, according to
Chen and Miranda both, the ambition was
always a realistic one.
I knew it was going to be a bit of a reach as a
goal but I knew it was still going to be in the
realm of possibility, Miranda said.
Said Chen: I knew if things went well, that
he would be able to reach it. But things really,
really had to go well and he had to do everything perfectly. And he did.
The start of Mirandas postseason was anything but perfect though. While he took first
place at the West Bay Athletic League championships Nov. 6 at Crystal Springs, his time of
15:38 was something of a disappointment to

record set last season. Harrison Barnes missed

his second consecutive game with a sprained
left ankle. Brandon Rush started in his place.
Ian Clark hit four triples off the bench.
Warriors interim coach Luke Walton said
the team isnt worried about the streak. I
think it just adds pressure, Walton said. It
makes other teams want to beat us that much
more, to be the first team to end the streak.
We have guys that embrace pressure and they
seem to play better and are more sharp the
more pressure and the bigger the stage.

PAL among the

best in the CCS

or one season at least, the argument can be made that Peninsula

Athletic League football league is
one of the best in the Central Coast
Section.
Sure, the West Catholic Athletic League
lays claim to that title every year and this
year is no exception as it has three teams
Bellarmine, St. Francis and Riordan
in three of the CCS championship games
this weekend.
But you know who else has three teams
in the nals? The PAL.
And how did Half Moon Bay, Hillsdale
and Sacred Heart Prep advance to three title
games in three divisions? By having a
trio of the best running backs in the
section.
Hillsdales
Cameron Taylor is
ranked third in CCS
and is one of only
three running backs
in the section to
eclipse the 2,000yard mark. After
Fridays 185-yard
performance in a 23-7 win over Silver
Creek in the Division IV seminals, Taylor
now has 2,005 yards rushing.
SHPs Lapitu Mahoni is sixth in the section with 1,437 yards after going for 189
in the Gators 31-10 win over Monte Vista
Christian in the Open III Division. Over
the last two playoff games, Mahoni has
rushed for 337 yards.
Half Moon Bays Matt Spigelman, after
rushing for 201 yards in a 28-14 win over
Carmel in the Division V semis, raised his
season total to 1,352 yards, good for
eighth in the section.
But while offense wins games, defense
wins championships, and Hillsdale and
Sacred Heart Prep have two of the best.
Sacred Heart Prep, playing in the PALs Bay
Division, struggled defensively early on,
but over the Gators last four games, they
are allowing an average of 16.7 points per

M-A continues tradition with fantastic fall season

By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Menlo-Atherton has won the Peninsula

Athletic League Commissioners Cup eight of
the nine years since the awards inception.
With the fall season M-A athletics is celebrating, the program looks to be well on its way
to a ninth.
While sportsmanship points are a factor in
deciding the annual honor, it is bestowed to
the top PAL athletics program based largely
on standing placement. The Bears are off to a
fine start. Of their eight fall sports, the Bears
earned five league titles, saw two second-place

finished and one in third-place.

A testament to the competitive machine
that is M-A athletics, two of those league
champs were helmed by first-year head coaches in footballs Adhir Ravipati and volleyballs Fletcher Anderson.
The [athletic directors] are super awesome
to work with, Anderson said. They want to
make sure all us coaches have whatever we
need. Theres not a super emphasis on sports.
Theres just a good family and it goes to a
good culture at M-A. I feel right at home here
with this being my first season. It feels
good, it feels right.
M-A volleyball isnt done yet. In Saturdays

CIF Northern California Division I semifinal

matchup at Pitman-Turlock, the No. 3-seed
Bears scored a four-set victory, advancing to
Tuesdays Nor Cal championship game.
Last season, M-A reached the Nor Cal finals
under third-year head coach Ron Whitmill,
who left M-A to take over the varsity volleyball program at Valley Christian this season.
The Bears fell one game shy of the state championship with a grueling five-set loss to
Pitman.
This is our biggest (playoff run), of course,
because its at the state level, M-A co-athletic director Paul Snow said.
Snow, along with M-As other athletic direc-

tor Steve Kryger, hired Anderson during the

summer in what Snow referred to as a very
laborious interview panel.
Anderson previously served as a varsity
assistant coach at M-A under former head coach
Jennifer Wilson. And he was set to return to MA this season as an assistant on Whitmills
staff until Whitmill announced his departure in
June. Andersons swift promotion marked his
first stint as a high school head coach.
These girls were brimming with confidence and I had to prove myself, Anderson
said. They kind of knew they were good.

thats all it took for the sophomore to get it

did so Saturday, according to Chen.

Struggling 49ers hit the road for two games

By Janie McCauley
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SANTA CLARA Jim Tomsula is now talking about having his players sprint off the bus
and into Solider Field on Sunday.
Anything that might get things going on the
road at last.
The San Francisco 49ers (3-8) are 0-5 away
from Levis Stadium this season and little
points to them getting over that hump unless
things change drastically, and in a hurry.
They go to Chicago this week then travel to
Cleveland the next, putting the Niners not
only in two tough venues but also probably
facing wintry weather. Former Browns kicker
Phil Dawson is bracing for rain and snow.
After our meeting this morning with the
film, that was the first topic of conversation,
Tomsula said Monday.
Whatever the conditions, San Francisco first
must find a way to avoid the rash of mistakes
seen in Sundays 19-13 home loss to the firstplace Arizona Cardinals, namely 13 penalties
for 81 yards.
Youre not going to change flights. Youre
not going to change that youre going on the
road, Tomsula said. So, the changes need to
come from each one of us and how we have ourselves prepared to play. Again, the acknowledgement of it and mentally coming off getting
off a bus on game day and maybe we need to
sprint off the bus. But, that sense of urgency
and attack that football game.
While many of the Niners were furious at the
officials Sunday, they still must clean up their
play to avoid costly miscues.
Quinton Dial was called for a debated roughing the passer penalty on Arizonas winning
drive, and the 49ers thought it was clean.
Carson Palmer put it this way: Theres no
debate here. He hit me right in the face with the

Gronkowski joins a list of injured that
already included running back Dion Lewis,
receivers Julian Edelman and Danny Amendola,

crown of his helmet.
A day later, Tomsula still thought Dial did the
legal thing.
Listen, things happen on a football field in
real time. My vantage point of the play is we
came in and Dial was working to get to the
strike zone, which we call a strike zone. Same
way you throw a pitch, from the knees to the
shoulders, he said. And thats where were
aiming to tackle for the integrity and safety of
the game. So, thats what we do. And I did see
him lower to get into that strike zone. But, I am
not here to critique officiating.

Oh, his players did so for him.

Infuriated 49ers left guard Alex Boone went
off, saying he doesnt care if the NFL fines
him.
Im not really too worried about getting
fined, I thought those refs sucked, Boone said
in the locker room Sunday. If you dont like
what we say then dont like what we say, dont
throw a flag for it. Thats what Im sick about
this league. This is supposed to be a mans
game. Be a man. Thats what (ticks) me off,
because guys like that work in this league and
work on that field and we have to deal with it.
Even Cardinals coach Bruce Arians let loose
afterward on all the flying yellow flags, saying: The officials were struggling mightily.
They cant count to three.
It thought it was ridiculous all day, San
Francisco wideout Anquan Boldin said. If
youre going to call the game that way, call it
both ways. Dont let it be so lopsided where
its blatant.
Going forward under challenging circumstances, San Francisco still must find ways to
deal with whatever happens. The 49ers matched
their season high in penalties, a depth also
reached Nov. 1 at St. Louis.
Tomsula said its about aggressiveness
within the rules.
A win on the road sure would help.
It all comes down to just finishing the

Del Rio doesnt

let Raiders look
very far ahead
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ALAMEDA Raiders coach Jack Del Rio

has done a good job of keeping his players
focused on the task at hand rather than looking too far ahead.
With only five games left in the regular
season and the Raiders still trailing a handful of teams in the chase
for a wild-card spot, Del
Rio sees no reason to
alter his approach.
Nothings
really
changed, Del Rio said
Monday. You can take a
look at the stats and see
where you are and what the
Jack Del Rio likelihood of what you
need to do. You can talk
about all those things, but if youre talking
about running the table and those kinds of
things, its pretty hard to do anything more
than one day at a time, one game at a time.
Sundays comeback win over the
Tennessee Titans snapped Oaklands threegame losing streak that had put a serious
dent in the Raiders playoff hopes. At 5-6,
though, the Raiders are still in the hunt and
will play three games against teams ahead of
them in the standings, beginning with a
home game against Kansas City.
Oakland is currently ninth in the playoff race
and trails the Houston Texans, New York Jets
and Pittsburgh Steelers. The Raiders have the
tiebreaking edge over the Jets with their win
over New York on Nov. 1, but lost to the
Steelers in Week 9.
A win over the Chiefs would get the Raiders
to .500 for the first time in December since
2011, though Del Rio, typically, downplayed
the big picture.
Its a divisional game and its here at home,
and its an important game for us, he said.
Its next.
The Raiders came from behind to beat the
Titans on Derek Carrs 12-yard touchdown pass
to Seth Roberts with 1:21 left to play. It
marked the second winning drive Carr has
engineered late in the fourth quarter this season
and the third of his two-year career.
There are a lot of opportunities to be better,
a lot of examples where we can learn a great
deal, Del Rio said. But its great for your team
when you have a quarterback capable, a line
that gives you protection and receivers that get
open. Its great to be able to pull out a game

Hogan leads Stanford into Pac-12 title game

By Josh Dubow
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

STANFORD Ever since taking over as

Stanfords starting quarterback the year after
Andrew Luck left for the NFL, all Kevin Hogan
has done is win games.
One more victory for the seventh-ranked
Cardinal (10-2) in the Pac-12 championship
game and Hogan will either be the starting
quarterback for his team in the Rose Bowl for
the third time or leading Stanford into the
College Football Playoff.
While Hogan may lack the high-end, professional potential of former Stanford greats
like Luck, John Elway and Jim Plunkett who
went on to be No. 1 overall draft picks after
their college careers, his production and winning stands up to any of his predecessors.
Hogan has the most wins of any Stanford
starting quarterback with 34, and ranks fourth
in yards passing (9,018), second in completion percentage (66 percent), second in rating
(153.4) and fourth in TD passes (71).
But with a conference title game Saturday
against No. 24 Southern California followed
by a bowl game or playoff berth, Hogan is not
ready to reflect on his career.
Theres so much going on in the next week
and whatever the chips may fall after that, you
cant really pause and think back yet, he said.
I love the guys and all our focus is on the next
one, as it should be.
Hogan is coming off perhaps his signature
performance in his final home game. He went
17 for 21 for 269 yards and four touchdown
passes in a 38-36 win over Notre Dame.
Hogan also threw the 27-yard pass to Devon

GARY A. VASQUEZ/USA TODAY SPORTS

Stanford quarterback Kevin Hogan threw for

269 yards and four TDs in Saturdays dramatic
38-36 win over Notre Dame.
Cajuste that helped Stanford rally after allowing the go-ahead score with 30 seconds to win
it on Conrad Ukropinas 45-yard field goal on
the final play.
This was definitely up there, Hogan said.
Definitely top three moments.
It hasnt always been easy for Hogan, who
won the starting job from Josh Nunes midway
through his redshirt freshman season in 2012.
After taking the Cardinal to the Rose Bowl
that season and the next, Hogan endured a difsaid of the PAL Bay Division MVP. She had
[19] kills on 72 swings. We set her a ton.
They were digging her a lot. Both teams had
to take a lot of swings to win the rallies.
M-A had to brandish its full arsenal of
offense to overcome Pitman. Three players
totaled double-digit kills, including junior
middle Eliza Grover (11 kills) and upstart
sophomore Lauren Heller (10 kills). While
senior opposite Leanna Collins totaled just
five match kills, however, she generated the
final four kills in the decisive Game 4,
capped by a back set by Kirby Knapp for
Collins to deliver a slayer right down the
middle of the court.
With all of M-As success, though, the
athletic department is going to have a heck
of a time picking athletes of the year. In
addition to DiSantos PAL Bay Division
MVP honor, the accolades and achievements during the fall season are vast.
Girls cross country star Annalisa Crowe
captured the PAL individual championship,
and paced the M-A team to the title at the

ficult junior campaign.

With his father, Jerry, dying of colon cancer, Hogan had his least productive season as
the Cardinal lost five games and he played particularly poorly in losses to Notre Dame,
Arizona State and Utah.
But after a late-season trip home to visit his
father before he died last December, Hogan
finished the season with three strong performances and has carried it over to his final season with the Cardinal.
He has got some scars, coach David Shaw
said. I think scars are good. They help you
learn. He speaks from a position of experience and the guys listen to him. He doesnt
have to yell and scream. When he talks, guys
listen because hes been around, hes seen it,
hes done it and hes out there fighting and
scrapping with the rest of them.
Shaw credited Hogans maturity for much of
his success this season. He said the difficulties
on and off the field in 2014 have added even
more depth to Hogans personality.
That has helped him become an even bigger
leader. Hogan is credited by his teammates for
rallying the squad after a lackluster seasonopening loss at Northwestern. The Cardinal
have won 10 of 11 games since that point,
scoring at least 30 in every contest.
To see the way he approaches games and
his calm demeanor and his smooth confidence, hes a stud, said safety Dallas Lloyd,
who began his career as one of Hogans backups at quarterback. I know whatever he does,
hes not about himself. Hes always been a
person whos about the greater good and
everyone else. We love him. In my opinion,
hes the best leader Ive ever been around.
PAL Championship meet, and to the overall
PAL season title. Girls tennis No. 1 single
Lanie Van Linge led the Bears to a perfect
14-0 record and a PAL Bay Division title
this season.
On the gridiron, under first-year head
coach Ravipati, the Bears improved from 28 a season ago to capturing a tri-championship in the PAL Bay Division. And junior
running back Jordan Mims made history on
Oct. 16 in a 31-10 victory over Aragon,
rushing for a program-record 321 yards.
Also winning a title for M-A this season
was the girls golf team, which shared a cochampionship with Aragon in the PAL Bay
Division. The boys water polo and boys
cross country teams each took second place
in the Bay Division. Girls water polo took
third place in the Bay Division, finishing
just two games back of league-champion
Castilleja.

IAAF suspends three senior Kenyan track officials

By Rob Harris
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LONDON Three senior Kenyan track and

field federation officials were suspended by
the IAAF on Monday over accusations they
subverted the east African nations anti-doping system and siphoned money from Nike.
Athletics Kenya President Isaiah Kiplagat,
suspended for 180 days by the IAAF ethics
commission, has also been told there is a case
against him over an apparent gift of two
cars from the Qatar Athletics Federation.
Kiplagat is accused of receiving the cars personally or for the federation from Qatar, which
won the right to stage the 2019 world championships in a November 2014 vote. The
Qatari federation had no immediate comment
when contacted by The Associated Press.
The IAAF ethics commission has not yet
responded to questions from the AP about
Qatar, which beat bids from Eugene, Oregon,
and Barcelona to earn the right to stage the
world championships for the first time.
Earlier this month, the IAAF suspended the
Russian track and field federation after a
report commissioned by the World AntiDoping Agency accused the country of oper-

game. Hillsdale, also over the past four
games, is allowing just 15.7 points per
game.
Will these numbers add up to CCS championships? That remains to be seen, but the
PAL certainly has a chance.
***
If you showed up late to Hillsdales CCS
seminal game against Silver Creek, you
might have been surprised to see Haris
Wasim, No. 10, running roughshod over the
Raiders defense.
If you were late, however, you missed seeing Cameron Taylor nearly having his No. 2
jersey ripped off him during a tackle. After a
quick wardrobe change, with Taylor donning
No. 10, he continued to gouge the Silver
Creek defense.
I asked him after the game if he was superstitious about his jersey. He admitted he was
a little leery of making the change, but after
having continued success following the number change, he said it wasnt that big a deal.
***
Not only are San Mateo County teams
making noise in the CCS football playoffs,
there are two county team doing the same in
girls volleyball. Menlo-Atherton and Notre

ating a state-sponsored
doping program.
The suspension of the
three Kenyan leaders
comes a week after a group
of athletes occupied the
federations headquarters
demanding the removal of
top officials in a protest
Isaiah Kiplagat against doping and corruption.
The IAAF said in the
interests of the integrity
of the sport it had suspended Kiplagat, Athletics
Kenya vice president
David Okeyo, who is also
a member of the IAAFs
ruling council, and 2015
world
championships
David Okeyo team leader Joseph Kinyua
for 180 days pending the
outcome of the investigation.
The three men are accused of potential subversion of the anti-doping control process in
Kenya and the potential improper diversion from Athletics Kenya of funds received
from Nike.

Bonds in talks to
become Marlins
new hitting coach
Tuesday Dec. 1, 2015

Kiplagat and Okeyo are also being investigated by Kenyan police over the alleged misappropriation of more than $700,000 from
federation sponsor Nike.
I was formally set to relinquish the seat
anyway and retire to my farm but I will fight
all allegations against me vigorously,
Kiplagat said. My time in Athletics Kenya
was up anyway. Only an accident at home that
has kept me in hospital prevented me from
handing over.
Kinyua, the former treasurer at Athletics
Kenya, maintained that he had nothing to
worry about.
I responded to charges pertaining to
Nike sponsorship in March this year and
there is nothing new involving me since
that issue has been revolving for a long
time, Kinyua said. What has happened is
fine and each will have their day to respond
to the charges.
The ethics commission has appointed
Sharad Rao, a former director of public prosecutions in Kenya, as an investigator.
The cases come at a time with scrutiny over
the spike in doping cases in Kenya, with
more than 40 athletes failing tests since
2012.

MIAMI Barry Bonds might soon be tutoring Giancarlo Stanton, slugger to slugger.
Bonds is talking with the Miami Marlins
about working for them as a hitting coach, a
person familiar with the discussions said
Monday. The person spoke to The
Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the discussions havent been
confirmed publicly.
The Marlins interest in the steroids-tainted home run king was first reported by
CBSSports.com. If hired by the Marlins,
Bonds would coach Stanton, their $325 million slugger, who has 181 career homers
even though he just turned 26.
Frank Menechino will be back in 2016 for
his third season as Marlins hitting coach,
and Bonds would work with him.
Bonds would join the staff of six-time AllStar Don Mattingly, who recently became

the Marlins seventh manager since
June 2010. Bonds has worked as a
guest instructor for the San
Francisco Giants in spring training
since his playing days ended.
A seven-time NL MVP, Bonds
broke Hank Aarons career home
record of 755 on Aug. 7, 2007, in
the last of his 22 big league seasons.
In July, after a pursuit that lasted
nearly a decade, federal prosecutors dropped what remained of
their criminal case against Bonds.
But because of the taint of
steroids, he has come up short in
Hall of Fame balloting.
Nearly a year ago, in his third
try on the ballot, Bonds received
202 votes for 37 percent from the
Baseball Writers Association of
America. A player must garner at
least 75 percent of the vote to be

Derek Carr looked left and threw to Andre

Holmes in the end zone, where Titans safety
Michael Griffin batted down the pass. But
officials flagged B.W. Webb for holding on
the other side of the field, and two plays later,
Seth Roberts hauled in the winning TD pass.
Carr and Raiders coach Jack Del Rio insisted Amari Cooper was held, but Cooper himself sounded surprised he drew the flag: It was
the last down, so I thought we had a turnover
on downs, he said. But then I saw the flag.
Penalties are a part of the game. So I was glad
it was in our favor.
Webb said he never held the receiver, and
Titans interim coach Mike Mularkey complained the call changes the outcome of the
game. Its frustrating.

Bono, Clooney, Kardashian part of all-star campaign for AIDS

By Mesfin Fekadu
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK Would you like to

spend quality time with George
Clooney as he showers you with
compliments?
How about walk a red carpet with
Meryl Streep or visit the set of
Game of Thrones?
They are all possible: Bono is
launching an all-star campaign
featuring
once-in-a-lifetime
experiences that can be won after
donating at least $10 to his organization (RED), which raises funds
to fight AIDS. The campaign
kicks off Tuesday to coincide with
World AIDS Day, which is Dec. 1.
And Bono isnt just the face for
the movement: The U2 frontman
will go on a bike ride with one
donor a year after he was seriously injured in a bike accident in
New Yorks Central Park that
forced him into surgery.

H A P P Y

Im not sure
that was as
funny to my
band as it was
to me, Bono
said in an interview with the
As s o c i a t e d
Press. But I
think
were
Bono
going to have
fun and yeah, well go visit the
scene of the crime.
Jimmy Kimmel is dedicating his
Tuesday late-night show to the
campaign. He and Olivia Wilde
will
host
(SHOPATHON),
a
tongue-in-check play
off of home shopping, and the special
episode will feature
celebrity guests like
Tom Brady, who is
offering one donor a
chance to learn how to

pass a football, and Shaquille

ONeal, who will take a photo
with a winner for his or her 2016
holiday card.
And Kimmel is offering himself
up, too: He is willing to give
someones kid the talk.
Theres no age limit if you
have a 45-year-old kid, Ill
explain it to him, too, as long as
the parents are OK with it. Im
happy to do the job, said
Kimmel, who appears in a promo
video for the campaign with
Scarlett Johansson and Barry
Manilow.

Other experiences that can be

earned after
donating
on
Omaze.com/RED include a contour
makeover with Kim Kardashian; a
portrait painting by James
Franco; or attending a University
of Texas at Austin football game
with
alum
Matthew
McConaughey. Entries close on
January 21, 2016.
Even though red is the color of
emergency, theres a sort of optimism about the whole campaign
and a kind of defiant humor. We
have always had that, but the
(SHOPATHON) will really take it

to another new level, Bono said.

The Bill and Melinda Gates
Foundation will match every dollar raised up to $20 million. R&B
singer The Weeknd is offering fans
a chance to hang backstage at a
concert; there is a one-day wellness break with Snoop Dogg in
Colorado; and Ryan Seacrest will
let someone announce the No. 1
song on his radio show.
When you see how much work
Bono does personally to fight
AIDS, its almost embarrassing,
its the least we can do or anyone
can do to help, Kimmel said.

KIRINCIC
Continued from page 1
relationship that left the San Mateo
woman dead after her estranged boyfriend
allegedly murdered her over the weekend
just days after he was released from jail for
attacking her months earlier.
Police worked around the clock to find
Kirincic, who was wanted for the murder of
Straw.
Straw, 34, died from multiple stab
wounds shortly after calling police to her
home at 1509 S. B St. Saturday afternoon.
Court records and neighbors recall a troubled past between the victim and Kirincic.
Straw had an active restraining order
against Kirincic as well as another man at
the time of her murder, according to police
and court records.
Kirincic recently pleaded no contest to
felony domestic violence and served 60
days for an attack during which he attempted to suffocate Straw with a pillow Sept.
26, District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe said
Monday.

CYBER

big bucks for retailers.
Its too early for sales figures, but
Monday is still expected to be the biggest
online shopping day ever, likely racking up
more than $3 billion in sales, according to
research firm comScore.
As of 7 p.m. Monday, Adobe estimated
Cyber Monday sales would rise 12 percent
to $2.98 billion by the end of the day. A
more complete picture of Cyber Monday
sales will be available when comScore
releases figures on Wednesday.
A lot of people wait to see if deals are
better on Cyber Monday, said Forrester
Research analyst Sucharita Mulpuru.

LOCAL

THE DAILY JOURNAL

Kirincic was released from jail shortly

before the murder and was ordered to have
no contact with the victim. He also failed
to appear in court on a separate misdemeanor charge for attacking another man
while in custody Oct. 27.
In that case, Kirincic allegedly beat and
kicked Graham Reis while the two were in
jail. Kirincic was reportedly upset with
Reis, who introduced him to Straw. The
deceased also had an active restraining
order against Reis that she filed in May,
according to court records.
Kirincic was a constant presence at his
girlfriends house until being arrested for
allegedly beating her so badly she needed
to be hospitalized, neighbors of Straw
said.
Kirincic lived with Straw at her B Street
home and the two had a volatile relationship, said neighbor Yo Yoshida.
Straw kicked him out of the house multiple times, Yoshida said Monday.
The yelling and screaming got so bad
that Kirincic would actually apologize to
neighbors for his behavior, he said.
Yoshida even exchanged words with
Kirincic, who has a long criminal history

for mostly drug offenses.

Police were called to the couples home
Aug. 31 after the duo had been heard
yelling. The couple was allegedly cited for
possessing drug paraphernalia, Wagstaffe
said.
By the time he was arrested Sept. 26,
Straw related another incident where he
allegedly attacked her in July. Police originally sought an attempted murder charge
but further investigation led Wagstaffe to
charge him with two felonies. Based on his
plea deal, Kirincic was ordered to 120 days
only 60 of which he had to serve based
on new realignment rules and three
years probation, Wagstaffe said.
Kirincic had vanished for a while,
Yoshida said, until showing up just before
Thanksgiving. The last time Yoshida saw
the murder suspect, he was standing in the
street staring at Straws home. Yoshida and
his family were not home Saturday when
Straw was killed.
There was a lot of trouble going on in
that house, Yoshida said. We always
heard lots of yelling.
The operator of A+ Immersion Preschool
next door also called the police to report

violence or abuse was taking place at

Straws home.
Yoshida also said that there were other
men that lived in the home with Straw that
were also troublesome.
Kirincics unoccupied car was found
Saturday in a parking garage near the Sutter
Health San Carlos Urgent Care Center at
301 Industrial Road. Police and a SWAT
team evacuated the clinic, conducted a
room-to-room search but the suspect wasnt located, according to police.
Originally from San Carlos, Kirincics
family was reportedly cooperating before
Monday nights arrest, according to
Decker and Wagstaffe.
Weve gotten great assistance from the
public and from some of his associates,
Decker said.
Decker said arresting Kirincic was the
departments highest priority since
Saturday.
Every detective, every member of our
two street crimes units have been working
on it through the weekend. Theres been
someone working on this 24 hours a day,
Decker said a few hours before the suspects
arrest.

New Yorker Anna Osgoodby was one of

the many online shoppers who spread her
purchases throughout the holiday shopping
weekend. On Black Friday, she took advantage of a 35 percent sale at online accessories retailer ashandwillow.com, buying
earrings, a necklace and bracelet. Then she
bought earrings and clutches on Monday
during its 40 percent off sale.
That extra 5 percent convinced me to buy
a few more, she said.
Some hot sellers were in scarce supply by
early afternoon on Monday. At Target, a
Swagway hoverboard was sold out by early
afternoon. The electronic transportation
gadget had been $100 off at $399. Drones
and some Star Wars toys were hard to find as
well.
There are certain hot products, hoverboards seem to be a phenomenon, theyre
selling out everywhere, said Scot Wingo,

chairman of ChannelAdvisor, which provides e-commerce services to retailers.

Adobe found 13 out of 100 product views
returned an out-of-stock message as of 7
p.m., twice the normal rate.
And there were a few brief outages at sites
like Neiman Marcus and Target and online
payments company PayPal reported a brief
interruption in service.
Retailers have been touting online deals
since the beginning of November. And they
no longer wait for Monday to roll out Cyber
Monday deals, either. Amazon started
Lightning Deals on Saturday and WalMart beginning all of its Cyber offers on 8
p.m. on Sunday.
Its no longer about one day, but a season
of digital deals, said Matthew Shay, president of retail trade group The National
Retail Federation.
That seems to have taken a toll on brick-

and-mortar shopping. Frenzied crowds

seemed to be a thing of the past on Black
Friday the busy shopping day after
Thanksgiving and sales fell to $10.4 billion this year, down from $11.6 billion in
2014, according to preliminary figures
from research firm ShopperTrak.
Consumers are recognizing the Internet
is the place to go for a deal any time, any
day, said Gene Alvarez, managing vice
president of research firm Gartner.
I personally skip Black Friday just to
shop Cyber Monday, said Mark Flores, a
parks and recreation director from Lynwood,
California. But this year, he started online
shopping on Black Friday, buying five
pairs of Sorel and Uggs shoes for gifts and
eight Chromecasts that were two for $50
instead of $35 off. He planned to shop on
Cyber Monday too, but did not find compelling deals.

Officials: Influential health survey needs to slim down

By Mike Stobbe
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK When the government launched what would become

most influential survey to monitor the
nations public health, there were just
75 questions and 95 percent of
those asked agreed to sit for it.
But that was nearly 60 years ago, and
the National Health Interview Survey
has mushroomed along with the government and its interests. There are
now 1,200 potential questions, and
the average family takes more than 90
minutes to complete the survey.
Not surprisingly, the refusal rate has
gone up, as well: Thirty percent are
refusing to take part. And that has
raised concerns that the survey conducted in peoples homes has gotten
too big.
If you tell them its going to take an
hour and it could be longer ... right
away people are going to say no, said
Joseph Paysen, who oversees the survey in the New York City area.
These and other issues have prompted plans for dramatic changes. But as
government officials embark on a
redesign, theyre contending with
bureaucratic obstacles and pleas from
researchers who want more questions
asked, not less.
Theyre kind of in a hard place,
observed James Lepkowski, a survey
research expert at the University of
Michigan.
U.S. Census Bureau workers conduct
the survey every year, on behalf of

another federal agency, the Centers for

Disease Control and Prevention. Its a
$30 million annual project, and somewhere around 50,000 people answer
the surveys questions each year.
Their answers have shaped our understanding of topics ranging from how
common arthritis is to how many people get X-rays to what proportion of
U.S. children suffers seizures. The surveys responses also are the foundation of how we measure the nations
progress (or backslide) on problems
like obesity and smoking.
Tellingly, the CDC recently added
questions to it about use of electronic
cigarettes even though other surveys already asked about that subject
because the agency wants a new,
unimpeachable statistical baseline on
the controversial topic.
Its been kind of the gold standard
for continuous, nationally-representative information on the American publics health, said Lynn Blewett, a
University of Minnesota expert on
health data.
The survey has been a crucial source
of health information for a long time.
In the 1800s and early 1900s, infectious diseases ranked as the nations
leading causes of death, so most government health statistics involved
births, deaths and germ illnesses. But
with the development of germ-fighting antibiotics and other advances, illnesses like heart disease and cancer
became the top killers, and new kinds
of statistics were needed.
In 1956, President Dwight D.

Eisenhower signed a law creating the

health interview survey. The purpose
was to learn how common chronic illnesses and disabilities were, and to
learn about the characteristics and
behaviors of people who had them.
The survey began in 1957. It was
placed under the CDCs umbrella in
1987.
The surveys data became the basis
for measuring the nations progress in
fighting disease. It spurred funding for
a CDC arthritis program, and shaped
the agencys policy on cervical cancer
screening. It was the first federal
household survey to track the growing
popularity of cell phones. And its
been a primary measuring stick for
how many people are gaining health
insurance under the 2010 Affordable
Care Act, better known as Obamacare.
But now its just one data source in a
crowded field. The CDC has conducted
or funded hundreds of surveys designed
to improve researchers understanding
of peoples health and health behaviors. That includes roughly 20 ongoing surveys of all or parts of the U.S.
public. Many are focused on specific
topics, like HIV or teen smoking.
Meanwhile, people are being
approached for political polls or other
surveys, or asked for personal information by businesses trying to sell
them things. Bombarded by so many
solicitations, youre not trusting
when approached to be part of the government health survey, said Susan
Cochran, a UCLA researcher who
works with the survey data.

The National Health Interview Survey has been a crucial source

of health information for a long time. In the 1800s and early
1900s, infectious diseases ranked as the nations leading causes
of death, so most government health statistics involved births,
deaths and germ illnesses.

TEACHERS
Continued from page 1
One of the biggest challenges school
officials are grappling with currently,
said Baker, is a shortage of available
teachers who are willing and able to step
in to fill voids in classrooms left when
one of the districts core teachers misses
work.
Baker said he hopes the advisory
council could be a useful vehicle to communicate the districts need for more
teachers to the rest of the Redwood City
community, and possibly entice interested parties in substitute teaching locally.
There are not enough substitute
teachers, he said. When a teacher gets
ill, that has been very difficult.
The teacher shortage is not only an
issue in Redwood City, but has plagued
much of the Bay Area, as many local districts are looking at ways to make their
schools more lucrative to potential
part-time educators.
Baker said he believes offering professional development opportunities to
those who are interested in potentially
pursuing a career as a teacher is one of
his districts most attractive assets.
The district recently hiked its pay for
substitutes last year, but Baker said
more innovative and creative methods
need to be pursued to make Redwood
City a desirable destination for poten-

CORNERS

construction. A formal application has
yet to be turned in for the northwest lot,
the most recent to be vacated and the
only one sought for housing, Klein
said.
The southeast lot at 2 E. Third Ave. is
the furthest along with construction
crews well underway on creating a threestory mixed-use retail and office building. The entire 23,899-square-foot
facility will house 3,950 square feet of
retail and 4,000 square feet of office
space on the ground floor with 8,000
square feet of office on the second and
third levels, according to the city.
Across the street, another three-story
mixed-use building called the clock
tower project at 221 S. El Camino Real
will provide 11,000 square feet of
ground-floor retail space and another
21,000 square feet of office space
spread between the second and third
floors.
Both property owners have been
talking to brokers about potential tenants and considering how the offices
might be customized, Klein said.
Office space is a hot commodity, particularly in downtown San Mateo where
the vacancy rate rivals downtown Palo
Alto at just 1.51 percent as of

tially interested teachers.

To address the teacher shortage currently, Baker said the district is drawing
from a pool of recent college graduates
who majored in core subjects such as
mathematics and English and trying to
get them into the classroom.
He said the new graduates typically do
not have the prerequisite requirements to
teach, so officials will work to get a
waiver which allows them to work
immediately, while also trying to get
them the necessary professional development to transition into the education
field.
Baker said some of the recent graduates who have substituted are interested
in pursuing a career in education, and
others are looking to use their skills to
fill a void while considering other career
opportunities.
Those interested in joining the
Superintendents Parents Advisory
Council may also be a resource in
addressing the teacher shortage, said
Baker.
We need to find out how many parents
do we have at home who have been a
teacher, and how can we tap into that,
said Baker.
He said the district is also looking to
expand its network of potential substitutes to those who work currently in
other industries but are considering a different career path, said Baker.
We really need to think outside the
box, he said.
Other issues, such as the district budg-

et, educational goals, integration of

technology into the classroom, the
recent passage of the districts bond
measure and more will also be addressed
during the upcoming meeting, said
Baker.
He said hosting the meeting is a step
toward getting the Redwood City community and school officials working
together in the best interest of local students.
I want to listen to parents and the
community and get their feedback on
what is going on at their school sites,
he said.
He said he hopes the parents group
will be a fruitful initiative in gaining a
better understanding of ways to improve
Redwood City schools.
How can we make our school district
one of the best on the Peninsula? he
said.
As Redwood City school officials
look to make the district more appealing
to prospective teachers, Baker said he
feels the young learners who fill the
local classrooms are one the districts
most lucrative assets.
The kids are great, he said.

November, according to statistics from

Colliers International.
Theres a strong demand for office
[space] downtown, a lot of it has to do
with having a lot of small office startups and theyve been asking for spaces
where they can grow and still be in the
downtown. So these two office projects
will help with that, Klein said.
The northwest lot is the only one of
the three to include residential units,
which the city is also in dire need of due
to the regions well-known housing crisis. Unfortunately, the owners of that
property have yet to turn in a formal
planning application, Klein said.
According to the owners preliminary
proposal, it seeks to construct a fourstory building at 2 W. Third Ave., the
most recently vacated site of a former
76 Gas Station. The 26,626-square-foot
building would include 5,626 square
feet of retail space and common area on
the first floor and a mechanized Klaus
parking system that could automatically park 39 cars underground. The second, third and fourth floors would be
about 7,000 square feet each and contain a total of 11 residential units,
according to the proposal.
The applicant seeking to develop the
site did not return a request for comment.
Because the northwest lot is closest
to existing residences, there were more
concerns that arouse about the potential impacts of redeveloping the site.

However, redeveloping the site into

housing albeit a smaller project
could be helpful in dealing with the
regions housing shortage, Klein said.
While each site belongs to a different
owner, there are some similarities
amongst the unique planning process
the sites had to undergo. As former gas
stations, each parcel had to receive
clearance from the San Mateo Countys
Environmental Health Division to
ensure adequate cleanup or remediation
was done related to the underground
gasoline tanks.
Last year, the Planning Commission
reviewed all three pre-applications
back to back so as to consider how the
redevelopments would interact with one
another and how the new buildings
could serve as a gateway into downtown.
Klein said shes very pleased to see
progress at all three sites, particularly
as the new projects and eventual road
and pedestrian improvements will
enhance one of the main entry points
into downtown.
Its one of the major gateways in the
city to the downtown area. It was great
to have them come in at the same time
because we can take a look at the entry
features and how to combine and balance the projects, Klein said. In terms
of trying to draw attention and make a
better connection between the east side
and west side of El Camino, it will be a
significant improvement.

Those interested in joining the

Superintendents Parent Adv isory
Council are invited to the district board
room, 750 Bradford St., Redwood City,
at 6:30 p.m. Applicants ultimately
selected will be asked to participate in
monthly meetings, likely beginning in
January.
