Burlingame health care campus up for review

City Council, Planning Commission to discuss major policies, projects for Peninsula Health Care District plan
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

A variety of developments, capital improvement projects and

policies which stand to shape the
future of Burlingame are set to
soon go before officials for
review.
Burlingames City Council and
Planning Commission will con-

vene during an annual joint session Saturday, March 19, in the

Lane Room of the Burlingame
Library.
Officials are expected to discuss
the master plan for the campus
proposed by the Peninsula Health
Care District for construction on
Trousdale Drive, as well as an
update of the citys general plan.
Health care district officials are

pursuing a project which will

develop as many as 300 units of
senior housing, 150,000 square
feet of health care services,
200,000 square feet of medical
office space and other amenities
near the Mills-Peninsula Medical
Center.
Peninsula Health Care District
CEO Cheryl Fama said as the project moves forward, anticipation is

beginning to build, both by district officials and other agencies

near the project which have
expressed their support.
There is a lot of excitement,
said Fama, of the project expected
to be built over multiple phases
on 9.25 acres of land owned by the
district.
Though nearby agencies such as
the
Burlingame
Elementary

School District and Community

Gatepath Adult Care, both headquartered adjacent to the proposed
site, support the project, Fama
said an exhaustive community
outreach campaign is underway to
gather more input from neighbors.

Closure of the commercial Dungeness crab fishing will be lifted March 26.

being arrested in Tanzania, Africa.

Escape from Tanzania

Foster City couple jailed in Africa thank Speier for help
By Samantha Weigel
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

As Jon and Linda Grant sat

across from U. S. Rep. Jackie
Speier thanking her for helping
them escape from Tanzania, its
hard to imagine anyone would
think the 72- and 65-year-olds
were capable of anything that
would warrant a 20-year sentence
in foreign prison.
But the Foster City couple said
thats exactly what they faced
while trying to navigate a corrupt

court system earlier this year and it

cost them nearly $70,000 to make
it home.
While traveling through Africa,
the retired dentist and his wife were
thrown into jail and charged with
poaching after they purchased
what they thought, and asked multiple times to ensure, was a legal
piece of artwork made out of a
giraffe bone.
But the intricately engraved 18inch bone bought at a souvenir
shop within a wildlife refuge ultimately had the unsuspecting cou-

ple each facing a 20-year sentence

and $150,000 fine for poaching.
Jon Grant said its still hard to
believe that what he was carrying
happened to be illegal in Tanzania
their final destination after a
two-week cruise and a weeklong
safari in South Africa. And unbeknownst to them, Tanzanias
national animal is a giraffe.
Despite other countries and customs agents allowing them to
travel with it, in Tanzania the cou-

Dungeness crabs caught off the

coast of California south of the
Mendocino-Sonoma County line
have been deemed safe for consumption, California Department
of Fish and Wildlife officials
announced Friday.
Recent tests showed that domoic
acid levels in crabs in the area no

longer pose a risk to human

health, prompting state officials
to lift a closure of the recreational
Dungeness crab fishery.
Additionally, a closure of the
commercial Dungeness crab fishery in the area will also be lifted
on March 26, according to the
CDFW.

State unemployment rate dips to 5.5 percent

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LOS ANGELES Californias unemployment rate was 5. 5 percent in

February, continuing a slight downward trend but remaining higher than
the nations jobless rate as a whole,
state figures indicated Friday.
The state added 39,900 nonfarm payroll jobs, according to a business survey cited by the state Employment
Development Department.
A smaller federal survey estimated
nearly 18 million Californians held
jobs last month, an increase of 62,000
from January, the state agency reported.
Just over 1 million Californians
were unemployed, a decrease of 36,000
over the month and a dip of nearly
207,000 compared with February of
last year.
The unemployment rate generally
has been falling for months except for
a slight increase in December to 5.8
percent.
The state has added some 2 million
jobs since it began to recover from the
recession in February 2010, when the
unemployment rate was at a recessionera high of 12.4 percent.
However, Februarys unemployment
figure of 5.5 percent was still higher

No clear path to government-lowered drug prices
WASHINGTON Most Americans support it. Virtually
all other developed countries already do it. And the two leading presidential candidates: the government should lower
drug prices.
But experts say the chances for government action in the
near-term are close to nil. The reasons are familiar: political gridlock in Washington, pharmaceutical industry influence and the structure of the U.S. health system itself,
which limits government intervention.
Theres not much they can do, thats the sad truth, says
Ira Loss, of Washington Analysis. They cant do much so
theyre not gonna do much.
Looking ahead, a Democratic president with majorities in
the House and Senate might be able to pass major pricing
reforms. But even if Democrats retake the Senate this year,
Loss and others dont expect Democrats to regain the
House.
For now, business in Congress has essentially ground to
a halt, as both parties look to the November elections to
expand their power. But with a majority of Americans favoring government action on drug pricing, proposals continue
to swirl around Washington.

Fourteen at nuke base

probed for illegal drug activity
WASHINGTON Fourteen members of an Air Force unit
responsible for guarding nuclear missiles in Wyoming,
Colorado and Nebraska are under investigation for possible
illegal drug activity, including cases involving cocaine
use, defense officials said Friday.
The probe is a fresh blow to a nuclear missile corps that
has been under intense scrutiny in recent years for a string
of lapses in training and personal conduct, first revealed by
the Associated Press. The Air Force has said repeatedly over
the past year that it is making significant changes aimed at
lifting morale and improving performance.
The investigation at F.E. Warren Air Force Base, home of
the 90th Missile Wing, near Cheyenne, Wyoming, was
announced by Gen. Robin Rand, the four-star commander of
Air Force Global Strike Command. The command is responsible for the entire fleet of 450 Minuteman 3 nuclear missiles that stand in underground launch silos, one third of
them operated by the 90th Missile Wing. The missile force
is on alert 24 hours a day, year-round, requiring strict adherence to performance standards by the men and women who
operate, maintain and protect them.

U.S. government sets record

for failures to find files when asked
WASHINGTON The Obama administration set a record
for the number of times its federal employees told disappointed citizens, journalists and others that despite searching they couldnt find a single page requested under the
Freedom of Information Act, according to a new Associated
Press analysis of government data.
In more than one in six cases, or 129,825 times, government searchers said they came up empty-handed last year.
Such cases contributed to an alarming measurement: People
who asked for records under the law received censored files
or nothing in 77 percent of requests, also a record. In the
first full year after President Barack Obamas election, that
figure was only 65 percent of cases.

Garland complicates presidential campaign

By Ken Thomas
and Kathleen Hennessey
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON In choosing a centrist judge with Republican appeal,

President Barack Obama hoped to corner GOP opponents who pledge to
block his Supreme Court pick. He also
boxed in the Democrats vying to succeed him.
For Hillary Clinton, locked in a
fight for the hearts of progressive voters, Merrick Garlands nomination
presents a political puzzle. She had no
choice but to embrace the mild-mannered moderate whom Democrats plan
to make into a symbol of Republican
obstruction. But she does not want to
hold him so close that she angers the
partys left, wary of Garland and worried the party may end up forfeiting a
chance to install a more liberal justice
on the court.
Clintons dilemma was evident in
her campaigns cautious reaction to

Obamas choice. In
a statement, she

Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, a liberal favorite, addressed those worries
directly. Sanders said Thursday that if
he won the White House, he would ask
Obama to withdraw Garlands nomination so he could make his own choice.
Garland would not have been my
nominee, Sanders said in an interview
with the Associated Press, though he
also said Garland had an incredibly
strong judicial record and he would
support him.

American IS fighter: I made a bad decision
IRBIL, Iraq The American Islamic State group fighter
who handed himself over to Kurdish forces in northern Iraq
earlier this week said he made a bad decision in joining
the IS, according to a heavily edited interview he gave to
an Iraqi Kurdish television station.
In the TV interview, which aired late Thursday night,
Mohamad Jamal Khweis, 26, from Alexandria, Virginia
detailed his weeks-long journey from the United States to
London, Amsterdam, Turkey, through Syria and finally to
the IS-controlled Iraqi city of Mosul.
Once in Mosul, Iraqs second-largest city that was captured by the Islamic State in the summer of 2014, Khweis
was moved into a house with dozens of other foreign fighters, he told the Kurdistan 24 station.
Khweis said he met an Iraqi woman with ties to IS in
Turkey who arranged his travel into Syria and then across
the border into Iraq. In Mosul, Khweis said he began more
than a month of intensive Islamic studies and it was then
he decided to try and flee.
I didnt agree with their ideology, he said, explaining
why he decided to escape a few weeks after arriving. I made
a bad decision to go with the girl and go to Mosul.

DHS using unpopular

raids to curb border crossings
WASHINGTON The Obama administration is openly
stepping up efforts to find and deport immigrants who were
part of the 2014 surge of illegal crossings by unaccompanied children and families.
The politically fraught endeavor is a follow-through on a
nearly 2-year-old warning that those immigrants who dont
win permission to stay in the United States would be sent
packing. It comes at a time when Republican presidential
candidates are pushing for tougher immigration action.
Homeland Security officials have kept a wary eye on the
border since more than 68,000 unaccompanied children
and roughly as many people traveling as families were
caught crossing the border illegally in 2014. The effort to
step up enforcement against families and young immigrants started in the midst of a new flood of such immigrants.
Previous efforts to curb illegal crossings seemed to work
initially, as the number of children and families crossing
illegally dropped about 40 percent between 2014 and
2015. But that number started to rise again late last summer. At the same time, the immigration court system faced
a backlog of more than 474,000 cases.

Ignoring U.N. ban, North Korea

fires ballistic missile into sea
By Hyung-Jin Kim
and Kim Tong-Hyung
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SEOUL, South Korea North Korea

ignored U.N. resolutions by firing a
medium-range ballistic missile into the
sea on Friday, Seoul and Washington
officials said, days after its leader Kim
Jong Un ordered weapons tests linked to
its pursuit of a long-range nuclear missile capable of reaching the U.S. mainland.
South Koreas Joint Chiefs of Staff
said in a statement that the missile fired
from a site north of Pyongyang flew
about 800 kilometers (500 miles)
before crashing off the Norths east
coast. It was the first medium-range missile launched by the North since it fired
two in April 2014, said a South Korean
defense official, requesting anonymity
citing department rules.
A senior U.S. defense official said the
missile appeared to be a Rodong type
fired from a road-mobile launcher. The
test violated multiple U.N. Security
Council resolutions that ban North
Korea from engaging in any ballistic
and nuclear activities, said the official,
speaking on condition of anonymity
because he was not authorized to discuss
the matter publicly.

REUTERS

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un watches the ballistic rocket launch drill of the
Strategic Force of the Korean Peoples Army at an unknown location.
The launch came as North Korea condemned ongoing annual South KoreanU.S. military drills that it sees as an
invasion rehearsal. The two sets of
drills are the largest ever, in response to
the Norths nuclear test and long-range
rocket launch earlier this year. One of
the drills, computer-simulated war
games, was to end later Friday while the

other, field training, is to continue late

April.
In recent weeks, North Korea threatened pre-emptive nuclear strikes against
Washington and Seoul and fired shortrange missiles and artillery into the sea
in an apparent anger over the drills and
tough U.N. sanctions imposed over its
nuclear test and rocket launch.

The market tended to focus on
the negative and ignore the good
at the start of this year, said Lowell
Yura,
head of Multi-Asset
Solutions for BMO Global Asset
Management.
But over the course of the fiveweek rally, reports on hiring, manufacturing and construction spend-

doing fairly well. Industrial, consumer and technology stocks benefited from the more positive outlook in the U.S. Energy and materials stocks climbed as oil and precious metals prices rose.
And this week the Federal
Reserve said it expects to slow the
pace of interest rate increases this
year. Lower rates make stocks look
more attractive to investors, and

they help boost economic growth

by reducing borrowing costs and
reducing the risk associated with
starting or expanding businesses.
The biggest gainers Friday were
health care stocks and banks, the
worst-performing parts of the market this year. Companies that make
aircraft, machinery and chemicals
also rose as the dollar fell against
other currencies on hopes that the
weaker dollar will boost their sales

percent, to $62.83.
Termo Company.
The regulator says the venting
appeared to be intentional and the
company tried to hide it.
It was only discovered when an
infrared camera on a flyover of the
gas leak noticed the pipe that was

illegal discharge otherwise could
have gone on indefinitely.

Gators win wild one

SHP scores walk-off win on M-As seventh error of game
By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

The defending Central Coast Section

Division II champion Sacred Heart Prep
baseball team has been looking for something anything to kick-start its season.
After losing eight of nine games to start
the season, the Gators (2-2 in Peninsula
Athletic League Bay Division, 2-8 overall)
won a wild one in walk-off fashion Friday
with a lot of help from visiting MenloAtherton (1-3, 4-6). The Bears committed

seven errors in the game, including two

fatal errors on the games final play to propel SHP to an 8-7 victory.
With SHP junior Mike York on first base
and two outs in the bottom of the seventh
amid a 7-7 tie, No. 9 hitter John Gardner
lifted a shallow pop up to right field that
was dropped by the second baseman. The
first error allowed York to advance to third,
where he initially stopped; but when the
throw back to the infield clipped off the
first basemans glove and trickled into nomans-land, York dashed home to score the
game-winning run.

And as York was mobbed by his teammates at home plate, it was the first time
this season the Gators looked like the team
that won it all in the Division II bracket
last season.
This was the first one that reminded me
of that team last year that won the CCS
championship, York said.
It was a big day for York, who went 1 for
2 with an RBI and two runs scored, with his
third-inning double giving the Gators a
much-needed spark. SHPs offense has fallen upon hard times this season. Even with

Student vs. teacher when USF, Stanford women meet

By Janie McCauley
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

STANFORD At 3:30 a.m. on a brutally cold

morning while leaving the Ukraine, her U.S.
teammates already on the bus outside the hotel,
Jennifer Azzi stopped for a group of begging,
poverty-stricken elderly women and handed out
all of her remaining currency and her extra
clothes.
Moments later, the rest of the Americans
stepped back off the bus and followed suit.
Everyone, all the players, all the coaches,
just kind of walked by them except for
Jennifer, Hall of Fame Stanford coach and
then-U.S. coach Tara VanDerveer recalled
Friday. Shes really a genuine, really special
person. ... Jennifer thinks of other people a
lot.
That moment from early 1996 when she was
coaching Azzi on the Olympic team that went
on to win gold that summer in Atlanta is still so
vivid for VanDerveer. She coached Azzis AllAmerican career on The Farm, too.
On Saturday, VanDerveer will coach the
fourth-seeded Cardinal (24-7) against Azzis
upstart West Coast Conference tournament
champion San Francisco squad (21-11) in the
Lexington Regional.

Jennifer
was
for
Stanford womens basketball what Steph Curry is for
the Warriors, VanDerveer
said Friday, sitting in her
office conference room
watching the womens tournament and reflecting on
Azzis time on campus. I
Jennifer Azzi think that in some ways
that that team was kind of
the original, Wake up, heres womens basketball. But weve got to beat her. Weve got to
win.
No. 5 seed Miami (24-8) takes on 12th-seeded South Dakota State (26-6) in the first game
Saturday afternoon.
VanDerveer recruited sixth-year USF coach
Azzi very hard, as in she and her staff making
20 total trips to the Knoxville, Tennessee, area
pursuing Azzi back before recruiting limits were
put in place.
I wondered, Is this player really worth it?
VanDerveer said. She put Stanford basketball
on the map, with her great teammates. She didnt have the same role on the Olympic team that
she did at Stanford, where she was a starter and a
star. She came off the bench for us. People gave
her some, How come youre not playing more,
starting? Shes like, Im going to win the same

Splash Brothers top Mavs to

set up showdown with Spurs

Not that VanDerveers players need any added

motivation to play in the middle of finals week,
but she has shared Azzi stories at times.
I know in the past shes told us about times
when Jennifer Azzi twisted her ankle and would
stay up all night icing it so she could play the
next day, guard Brittany McPhee said. Shes
just very intense.

Tidbits
When Miami lost to Iowa last March for a
berth in the NCAA Tournaments Sweet 16,
Jessica Thomas had already run for the tunnel
when coach Katie Meier pulled her star player
back to the Hawkeyes rockin home court to
watch the opponent celebrate. That heartbreak
and defeat is largely what has fueled the
Hurricanes to take a bigger step this time around
in the tournament.
We learn way more from losses and we take
moments like that and that just drives us and we
dont stop working, Meier said. The team left
and I grabbed her back, I yanked her back onto
the court and said, You stand here and watch
this.
Meier compared the way South Dakota States
post players spread the floor to the Netherlands
team Miami faced during its foreign tour last
year.

Ravens CB Tray Walker dies

of injuries from bike crash
By David Ginsburg
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BALTIMORE Baltimore Ravens cornerback Tray Walker, who played one season in
the NFL, died Friday of injuries from a dirt
bike crash in Miami.
His godmother confirmed the 23-year-old
Walkers death, according to the Ravens.
Walker was riding a Honda dirt bike with
no lights and wearing dark clothing when he
collided with a Ford Escape on Thursday
night, Miami-Dade Police said. He had been
in Jackson Memorial Hospital in critical
condition.
A fourth-round 2015 draft pick, Walker
played in eight games last season, mostly
on special teams.
Ravens coach John Harbaugh wrote a heartfelt letter to his players Friday before Walker
died. Later, in a statement, Harbaugh said, Tray
was a young man with a good and kind heart. He
was humble and loved everything about being

part of the Ravens team.

He loved his teammates
the practice and the preparation and that showed
every day. ... Ill never forget that smile.
General manager Ozzie
Newsome, who drafted
Walker, said, Tray was one
Tray Walker of the most humble persons
we brought in for a pre-draft
visit. That was striking. After we drafted him, he
and his family were so excited to receive the call
that he was about to become a Raven. It was one
of the calls I will always remember. There was
such joy for Tray and his family.
Walker made only one tackle with
Baltimore, but he made a lasting impression
on those around him.
Tray was a young man who was full of
energy and promise, quarterback Joe Flacco
said. This is very hard to wrap my head
around, and I am devastated.

MLB brief

GOODYEAR, Ariz Carlos Santana had two hits and

Joey Butler hit a grand slam on Friday, powering the
Cleveland Indians to a 10-8 win over the Oakland
Athletics.
Santana singled and scored from first on Jose Ramirezs
double off Jesse Hahn, who was shut down last July because
of a strained forearm. Hahn allowed two runs on four hits in
four innings.
Butler, claimed off waivers from Tampa Bay, hit his sec-

ond homer off Seth Frankoff to cap an eight-run fifth

inning.
Mark Canha doubled home a pair of runs in the first off
Clevelands Josh Tomlin, who allowed three runs on 10
hits and a walk in 3 1-3 innings.
Andrew Lambo had two hits for the Athletics. Josh

DALLAS Stephen Curry stole the ball

from Dirk Nowitzki near midcourt and hit a

drawing a huge roar from the typical swarm
of the sharpshooting stars fans on the road.
Golden States reigning MVP glanced
another 3-pointer off the edge of the backboard from the right corner with the 7-foot

Oh, and fellow Splash Brother Klay

Maybe Dallas coach Rick Carlisle wasnt
crazy for suggesting the Warriors were bigger than the Rolling Stones before the
Mavericks 130-112 loss Friday night,
prompting Golden State coach Steve Kerr to
reminisce about the Beatles.
Right now, by NBA standards, this is
bigger than the Rolling Stones on tour,
Carlisle said. Wherever they go, theres a

mass of people and a huge following.

And whos Kerr to argue?
I was on the Beatles back in 96, so I
guess its fitting that Im now with the
Stones, Kerr joked when told of Carlisles
comments. Either way, I was just a roadie
setting up the stage for both teams.
Its time to take the tour to San Antonio
for a Saturday night prime-time showdown
between the NBAs runaway leaders.
The game is made all the more interesting
by Golden States 32-game losing streak at
the Spurs, which goes back to Feb. 14,
1997, and is the NBAs longest current
drought on another teams court.
The Warriors (62-6) have won seven
straight and are now two games ahead of
Chicagos pace when the Bulls set the NBA
record with 72 wins in 1995-96, while the
Spurs (58-10) have won 43 straight on their
home floor.
Nowitzki had 24 points for the Mavericks

eight games and dropped under .500 for the
first time since Nov. 11.

MaxPreps.com, Menlo coach John Paye

released this little tidbit: Menlo, as a
school, has never lost a Nor Cal title game,
going a perfect 5-0. The 1983 and 1989
boys teams advanced to the state finals,
while the girls program won three straight
Division V state championships from 1989
to 1991.
The coach of those girls teams? Paye.
And like the Division I final, these teams
have a certain amount of familiarity
between the two as they met in an early,
non-league game at the beginning of
December, a game in which Cardinal
Newman held on for a 62-51 victory.
But Paye and the Knights will need a lot
more of the present than the past to beat the
Cardinals. Cardinal Newman has won 16 of
its last 17 games, losing only to Salesian
in the NCS Division IV title game. The
Cardinals rebounded, however, with a pair
of blowout wins over the two teams that
were in the Central Coast Section Division
IV title game: runner-up Scotts Valley (6145) and CCS champ Sacred Heart Prep (6932).

slip away with a 58-54 victory.
In that meeting, the Bears were led by Eric

Nearly three months later, Berkeley gets
its rematch, when the stakes could not be

the Nor Cal final was nearly as improbable

Yellowjackets faced No. 2 JesuitCarmichael, stunning the Marauders 62-59.

Cal QB Jared Goff gets tested at pro day

Byu Josh Dubow
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BERKELEY Jared Goff had finished the

scripted part of his pro day when the Cleveland
Browns made a special request.
Cleveland quarterback coach Pep
Hamilton doused a ball with water and had
Goff make several throws with the wet football to see how a California kid would adjust
to the inclement weather in the AFC North if
the Browns choose to pick him second
overall at next months draft.
Growing up in California, they probably
wanted to see that and that makes sense, Goff
said Friday. At the same time, Ive played in
cold weather before and I wouldnt be the first
quarterback to go from California to cold
weather. I think Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers
are doing pretty well. Theyre able to do it.
Teams considering taking quarterbacks in
the first round of the draft leave few stones
unturned as they consider everything from
game tape, to interviews to hand size. Much
was made at last months combine about
whether Goffs hands were too small at nine

inches. They measured

one-eighth of an inch bigger at his pro day at
California.
They got me a new
measuring tape that is
made for small-handed
people I guess, he joked.
The most pressing question about Goff for teams
Jared Goff
deciding if he is worthy of
being a franchise quarterback is the adjustment
he will have to make from the spread offense
he played in college to a more pro-style attack
in the pros.
Goff operated almost exclusively out of the
shotgun in his three years at Cal when he set
school records for yards passing (12,200),
completions (977) and touchdown passes
(96). He improved every season and finished
this past year with career highs of 4,719 yards
passing, a Pac-12 record 43 touchdown passes,
64.5 percent completion rate and a 161.3
passer rating.
Goff has spent much of his pre-draft preparation with former NFL quarterback Ryan Lindley
working on his drop backs from center.

I felt pretty comfortable with it after a week

or two honestly, Goff said. It obviously is
going to be a transition with actual players out
there. Just doing it under center, I felt very
comfortable with it right away. I didnt have a
transition period. It felt pretty natural to me.
Obviously theres a lot of stuff I want to tighten up.
Most of his passes at his pro day included
drops from center, including some with playaction fakes, in an attempt to show he has the
proper footwork to execute any offense in the
NFL.
Goff was mostly accurate in his scripted
workout, with one notable miscommunication
when a receiver went a different way than Goff
threw and a few fluttering balls that were
slightly off-target or dropped. He finished with
an on-target 40-yard pass that showed off his
deep arm.
I felt good overall, he said. Finished it
pretty well and felt good about it. There are
always going to be a couple, two or three, you
want back. Id like to have zero Id want back
but thats hard to ask sometimes. It went well.
I was really happy about it.
Goff performed under the watchful eye of
scores of NFL scouts, executives and coaches.
He spoke briefly with Clevelands Hue
Jackson and San Franciscos Chip Kelly, two
coaches of teams with top 10 picks in the market for a quarterback.
Having grown up in the Bay Area and having
played his college ball here as well, he
acknowledged there would be something special about playing for the 49ers.
Growing up as a fan of them that would be
awesome, he said. But at the same time, Id
be more than happy to play anywhere and be
with a team or a coach that I want to win games
with or be very successful with.

the Syracuse and Dayton fans in the building on their side.
Michigan State chipped away at its deficit but never managed
to make an extended run. Valentine was saddled with two fouls
and rendered ineffective most of the way, and the backcourt of
Forbes and Eron Harris combined for four turnovers while managing a single point.
Valentines frustration reached its apex after he committed
back-to-back turnovers in the second half. During a stoppage in
play and with the Blue Raiders leading 51-43, Valentine stalked
back to his teams huddle and proceeded to slam his hand into
the floor.
Michigan State slowly trimmed the lead to 65-64 on a basket
by Costello with eight minutes to play, but the Blue Raiders
scored on their next six trips down floor to hold their lead.
They held onto it the rest of the way, too. It was the first time
the Spartans, heavily favored to reach the Final Four, were
bounced from the tournament in the first round since 2011.
We just couldnt make that one play, the Spartans Tum Tum
Nairn said. Thats the thing about this tournament tomorrow is not a guarantee.

the Gators eight-run output Friday, the manufactured just six hits. As a team, they are currently hitting at a .221 clip.
With Yorks third-inning swing of the bat,
however, he breathed life back into the
Gators dugout. With M-A jumping out to an
early 3-0 lead, York led off the third by raking
a double over the first-base bag. York scored
the Gators first run of the game and SHP
would eventually tie it in the fourth.
From there, a back-and-forth battle ensued.
M-A jumped back ahead with a two-run rally
in the top of the fifth, but SHP responded with
three runs in the bottom of the inning to take
a 6-5 lead. M-A seesawed back out front with
two runs in the top of the sixth, but SHP tied
it with a run in the bottom of the frame.
It was an especially disheartening loss for
the Bears, who had committed just six previous errors this season.

gave up, M-A manager Mike Amoroso said.
We hit the ball well, we pitched well, we ran
the bags really well. We just didnt play
defense.
As poorly as the Gators have swung the
bats this season, errors have actually been
the teams undoing, according to SHP manager Anthony Granato. The Gators have made
23 errors through 10 games this year.
Weve had some games where weve swung
the bats well, we just havent been consistent, Granato said. Weve put a lot of pressure on ourselves by not playing good
defense. Making mistakes, weve been doing
that all year long.
Early miscues cost SHP early. A walk and a
wild pitch by starting pitcher Nathan
Fleischli led to M-As initial run in the second. In the third, York dropped a routine fly
ball to start the inning. Fleischli went on to
yield an RBI single to James Sullivan, littered amid three wild pitches, the third of
which scored Sullivan to give the Bears a 3-0
lead.
Trailing 3-1 in the fourth though, SHP capitalized on an M-A infield error to open the
frame. After a walk to Sean Clark and a single

by Eric DeBrine loaded the bases, York and

Gardner produced back-to-back sacrifice flies
to tie it 3-3. SHP totaled four sacrifices, each
of which helped to produce runs.
M-A starting pitcher Ryan Klapper soldiered through 4 1/3 innings of work, allowing six runs (three earned) on three hits.
He faced some adversity and got through
it, Amoroso said. Im proud of him.
Facing SHP reliever Nick ODonnell
making the first pitching appearance of his
varsity career Klapper delivered a big
swing of the bat in the fifth. After an RBI double by Miles Conrad to put M-A back in front,
Klapper drove home Conrad with an RBI single, staking the Bears to a 5-3 lead.
But the right-handers defense again
betrayed him to start the fifth. After an M-A
infield error and a walk to start the inning,
Shafer Kraemer cranked a two-run double off
the left-field wall to tie it and knock Klapper
out of the game.
Then, with M-A reliever Kristopher Liang
on the hill, Shafer produced a pivotal steal of
third base. The steal forced M-A to play its
infield in, and Clark responded by threading
the needle with a sharp ground between short

With one out in the sixth, ODonnell exited after surrendering back-to-back walks. And
Gators right-hander DeBrine also making
his first varsity appearance was greeted by
a single by Liang to load the bases, followed
by a two-out, two run single by Klapper.
SHP clawed back in the bottom of the sixth
though by virtue of a two-out rally. Nick
Lockareffs two-out double was the spark.
Then after an intentional walk to Andrew
Daschbach, pinch hitter Brandon Semien tied
it with an RBI single through the middle to
score Lockareff.
DeBrine notched three strikeouts in the top

Rory McIlroy blasts out of a green-side bunker on No. 17 during the

second round of the Arnold Palmer Invitational. McIlroy is 11 shots behind
leader Jason Day.

Day leads Bay Hill,

McIlroy well back
By Doug Ferguson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ORLANDO, Fla. Jason Day

felt like he was bearing down on
each shot. He made it look much
easier Friday in the Arnold Palmer
Invitational.
Day made a pair of long birdie
putts and otherwise put on a clinic
at Bay Hill for a 7-under 65 that
gave him a two-shot lead over
Henrik Stenson going into the
weekend.
It was great, he said. I felt like
I couldnt do anything wrong out
there.
Day was at 13-under 131 and was
five shots ahead of Jamie Lovemark
(68) when he finished.
Stenson faced a daunting task
eight shots behind when he teed off
in the afternoon and he shot 31
on the back nine for a 66 to stay in
the game. Justin Rose also had a 66
and was three shots behind.
Its motivating, Stenson said
of the deficit he faced. You cant let
it be frustrating that youre eight
shots back. He played great, and
youve just got to go and do the
same, and I managed to do that.
Day, Stenson and Rose will play
together Saturday because tee times
have been moved forward to avoid
the threat of storms.
Rose wasnt bothered to see Day
so far ahead. His objective was to
take care of the par 5s and keep a
clean card, and he did both. Rose is
now 9 under on the eight par 5s he
has played this week. And he was
bogey-free on Friday.
Yesterday was a colorful scorecard, Rose said of an opening

round that included two eagles and a

double bogey. Today, a little bit
more solid.
Day was driving it long and
straight, hitting his irons well and
making big putts. Its a great combination for anyone, particularly a
player who reached No. 1 in the
world last year by winning four out
of six tournaments, including his
first major.
Rory McIlroy was able to watch
the whole show.
McIlroy, who opened with a 75,
was in the group behind Day and
saw the Australian start to pull away
from the field. McIlroy had his own
issues on Friday, starting with a
chance to play for two more days.
He handled that with ease, making
four birdies on the back nine to get
above the cut line and posting a 67.
But he was all but ready to concede that the tournament was out of
his reach.
I was looking at Jason in front
of me and I was thinking if I could
maybe get within six going into
the weekend, McIlroy said. And
now its 11. ... Even playing well,
Im not sure thats quite going to be
enough that far behind Jason. At
the same time I can get confidence
from that and bring it on to the next
week and ultimately into the
Masters.

ence-centric field trips for schools in underprivileged communities.
The field trips, which took place
Monday, March 14, through Wednesday,
March 16, are part of an effort to spark student interest in learning more about natural
environments, while making it easier for
teachers to get their kids out of the classroom.
We want to make information resonate
and create experiences in different ways
than showing a video or reading a book,
said Carrie Chen, the GoPlaces program
manager and director of Education at
Bay.org.
GoPlaces is born from a collaboration of
Bay. org, a nonprofit environmentalism
advocacy agency, and the San Francisco

Commercial and recreational rock crab

The commercial crab season was initially
scheduled to start Nov. 17, but remained
closed after public health officials deter-

THE DAILY JOURNAL

roughly 50 classes from schools across the

Bay Area granted free field trips through a
pilot program offered by GoPlaces, said
Chen.
The pilot program is just the tip of the
iceberg though, for a much larger and ambitious goal.
Due to budget constraints, many teachers
in public schools who wish to send their
classes on field trips face roadblocks in
funding transportation to get students out
of the classroom, said Chen.
A survey of 70 teachers showed 56 would
take their students on more field trips, if
transportation was less expensive and easier to arrange, according to a poll conducted
by Bay.org.
The ultimate goal of GoPlaces is to develop a network of charitable corporate donors
willing to sponsor field trips for teachers
who struggle to find the necessary
resources.
To make process even more efficient, the
program also aims to use the Internet to
connect the funding source and teachers
with a transportation agency that has the
vehicles available to take the students on
the field trip.

Chen likened the vision of the program

to Uber, Lyft or other ridesharing services
combined with the crowdsourcing movement, in which teachers from underserved
communities could use technology to
advertise their desire to send their students
on educational adventures.
Sponsors could then commit the money
needed to fund the field trip, and companies
with the buses or vans could sign up to
accommodate the transportation.
Though the goal seems challenging,
Chen admitted, she said initial research
shows the means and appetite exist locally
for bringing such a program to fruition.
Every meeting we had had makes us
believe in the vision, and that the vision is
attainable, she said.
She said a variety of hurdles still exist
though, as those who operate the program
still need to work with technology partners
to develop a platform to connect teachers
with donors and transportation agencies.
Corporate sponsors are needed as well,
said Chen, and more work should be done
with school districts throughout the Bay
Area to better understand the regulations
which need to be navigated before the pro-

gram can launch.

There are still rocks that we havent
turned over yet, she said.
But Chen remains a firm believer in the
core mission of the initiative, citing the
need for students to get out of the classroom and develop a connection with nature,
which could feed their potential ambition
for pursuing a career in environmental sciences.
During the field trips to the Marine
Science Institute, students had an opportunity to go on a boat ride, dig in the mud
along the shoreline and learn more about
the natural habitat in their backyard, said
Chen.
To get their hands dirty and wet is a
whole other experience, said Chen.
She said building an interest in nature
during a students formative years can also
be integral in building lifelong passion for
environmental advocacy.
When they become adults and are asked
to vote and act on things such as the environment, they are going to have those
experience that they can reflect back on,
she said. It is building a connection to
nature.

mined crabs had high levels of domoic acid,

a neurotoxin that can be harmful to humans
if eaten. Domoic acid is caused by an algal
bloom.

U. S. Reps. Jackie Speier and Jared

Huffman recently announced legislation
that would provide more than $138 million
in disaster assistance funding for California
fishermen and businesses hurt by the closure of the commercial crab season.
The Crab Emergency Disaster Assistance
Act of 2016 would provide $138.15 million
in assistance to Dungeness and rock crab
fishermen and related businesses.
The funding is contingent on U. S.
Secretary of Commerce Penny Pritzker
declaring the states crab fishing industry a
disaster and a commercial fishery failure.
Both the commercial and recreational
Dungeness crab seasons are scheduled to end

on June 30 in the newly opened area.

In February, the state Department of Fish

and Wildlife moved to allow recreational
crab fishing south of Point Reyes, but continued the closure of the commercial season.
The shutdown had caused an estimated $48
million in losses to the industry as of last
month, according to state officials.
This has been a very difficult season for
hardworking Californians who have suffered significant financial hardship due to
this natural disaster, the CDFWs director
Charlton Bonham said in a statement.

Stressed Out? Use These Tips

To Relieve Your Daily Anxiety

Officials with the California Department

of Public Health and the Office of
Environmental Health Hazard Assessment
are strongly recommending that consumers
avoid eating the crabs viscera, or internal
organs also known as butter or guts,
because they may contain much higher levels of domoic acid than the crabs body.
Consumers should also discard water or
broth used to cook the whole crab and avoid
using it to make sauces, broths, soups or
stews, as domoic acid from the viscera may
leach into the cooking liquid, causing
potential harm to the consumer, according
to the CDPH and OEHHA.

years of education thus far. We were given
months to work on it, to be fair and, logically speaking, that is more than enough
time, but logic tends not to mesh well with
sleep-deprived, senioritis-stricken second
semester students like us.
For many of us, last
weekend was characterized by the disorganized
mess of countless browser tabs of research and
the harshly white page of
an empty word processing document.
Ten pages. Most of us
realized the daunting nature of this task
from the moment we were asked to submit
paper proposals, so we chose topics that
were familiar or at least interesting to make
the process easier. I chose a topic that
seemed like a no-brainer, and as I outlined
my paper, I realized how easy it could be to
write a long, satisfying, impassioned rant
guided by my feelings. This paper was
going to be cake.
That weekend, I also had the privilege of
attending a journalism workshop hosted by
the San Francisco Peninsula Press Club at
City College of San Francisco, where I
exchanged lessons, newspapers and story
ideas with other local journalists.
Expecting to learn something valuable I
could bring back to my publications office,
I also attended a breakout session presenting the tips and tricks of an investigative
journalist.
I learned some interesting things about
media law, but the overall flavor of the
presentation was somewhat off-putting
because it emphasized going out on a limb
and following your gut to write a hard-hitting masterpiece maybe, in the process,
giving up reality to pursue sensationalism.
There is something to be said about taking
risks, seizing opportunities, fulfilling a
public duty and being invested in your
work but, at the end of the day, I would

Sushi the main dish

in tokyo fish story
By Judy Richter
DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT

Change clashes with tradition in

TheatreWorks smartly imagined production
of Kimber Lees tokyo fish story.
Set in present-day Tokyo, most of the
action takes place in a fading restaurant,
Sushi Koji, where Koji (Francis Jue) is the
owner and master sushi-maker.
He has high standards for the sushi he
serves, but business is declining fast.
Instead, people are flocking to a neighboring trendy chain restaurant where the food is

cheaper but less pristine.

His protg, Takashi (James Seol), is an
inventive sushi chef himself, but he keeps
his talents under wraps while upholding
Kojis standards. Only Nobu (Linden
Tailor), an assistant in the restaurant, has
sampled Takashis delicious creations.
Arthur Keng plays a variety of roles ranging from a comically inept apprentice to an
old fish monger and slick businessman,
among others.
Nicole Javier completes the cast as Ama,
who fights sexism to get a job in the restau-

over.
What is out there, located at the remains
of Chicagos OHare airport (which is only
about 15 miles away from the city, by the
way), is a headquarters run by a man named
David (Jeff Daniels). He likes Tris because
shes genetically pure, while everyone
else in the Chicago experiment is damaged and he wants to show her off to some
other committee in Providence to prove
that the system can work.
And its here where things might start to
feel a little jumbled for anyone who has
engaged with the modern sci-fi dystopias
of the past few years. The OHare outpost
looks like Oblivion, their genetic perfection goals sound like The Giver
meets Gattaca, the Russian doll world
feels like The Maze Runner and the
heroine like a less lively version of The

But unlike Katniss, who wore her trauma
and moral confusion and apprehension on
her face, Woodleys Tris just plays it cool
and affectless. Shes never ruffled by anything and were never riled up on her

Musica Pacifica puts

on an enticing show
By David Bratman
DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT

Musica Pacifica is an early-music instrumental ensemble

that performs around Northern California. On Wednesday,
March 16, its four members and guest violinist Laura Risk
brought a particularly enticing program to the First Baptist
Church in Palo Alto.
The theme was baroque and traditional music from the
British Isles. These two types of music make a tangy combination. Baroque here doesnt mean complex Bach
fugues or monumental Handel oratorios. These Baroque
pieces were suites for small ensemble, consisting of courtly dances and lyrical airs, by composers like Matthew
Locke and the Italian immigrant Nicola Mattheis, whose
tumbling canons in his Suite in A for two violins and continuo was particularly delightful.
These pieces, including a somber and complex fantasia
by the great Henry Purcell, were interleaved with sets of
dances and instrumental songs from Scotland, Ireland,
England and surprise! Quebec, to give Risk a chance
to play the music of her home. Some of these tunes were not
published until the 20th century, and a few were not even
written until then, but they all have a Baroque feel to them,
of elaborate courtliness.
Many of these dance tunes are extremely catchy melodies,
and one the English dance Hole in the Wall is actually from an opera by Purcell and might be familiar that
way. It formed a kind of bridge between the two styles, as
did a longer piece that melded them: an anonymous Scottish
sonata (more of a suite, really) based on a folk tune, taking it through various Baroque dance forms such as the sarabande and gavotte.
The result was less a conversation between the two styles
than a recognition that they formed a continuum, in their
intricacies and their grace. The relationship was especially
evident in comparing the two violinists. Elizabeth
Blumenstocks classical violin training gave her a lighter,
more controlled air than Risks looser and more growling
folk style. Each of them played one work unaccompanied,
proving a richness of sound could be achieved even solo.
Most of the music, though, was for the full ensemble, and
here the violins, as in those Mattheis canons, were wellmatched.
Judith Linsenberg on various-sized recorders, sometimes
switching from high treble to deep bass between movements, completed the melody instruments.
The continuo occasionally, in some of the more modern arrangements, changing to a more contemporary
accompaniment was provided by two players. David
Morris alternated between cello and the similar but more
subdued pre-modern instrument, the viola da gamba, and
Katherine Heater played harpsichord. Though the instrument had no lid, the harpsichord sound was extremely subdued, almost inaudible except in the rare solo.
The sound throughout was warm and lively. The playing
was brisk and energetic, a little bustling, a little chaotic,
with the recorder entering and dipping in to the melodic
lines established by the violins. The violins were gutstringed instruments, which added to the authenticity of the
sound but which, especially in changeable early spring
weather, required frequent retuning.
Musica Pacificas next local concert will be Friday, May
20, again in Palo Alto, featuring Bachs popular
Brandenburg Concerto No. 2, the one with the trumpet, plus
concertos by Vivaldi, Telemann and Fasch.

ple was accused of killing a giraffe, cutting
off its leg, then intricately engraving it
within a matter of days. Quickly, their
passports and belongings were taken away
before being sent to jail and eventually
prison.
I dont even think I have the appropriate words to describe the fear, Linda Grant
recalled, later noting even embassy officials and Tanzanian tour guides couldnt
believe the couple was being charged.
Everyone realized that this is the most
trumped up charge on Earth, but we got
caught up in this [corrupt] system.
Between bribes, legal fees, government
fines and new airfare, the couple said it
cost them more than $70,000 to escape
from Africa.
The Grants are no strangers to traveling
Jons been to 132 countries, Lindas
visited 100 countries and, for the last 15
years, the humanitarian couple worked
with the Rotary to distribute 400, 000
wheelchairs to the disabled in developing
countries.
Theyd also been to Africa several times.
So Jon Grant said wasnt as though he didnt know what to ask before purchasing
the bone.
Is it legal? Are you sure I can take it
through customs? he asked of the seller
and when he showed it to a tour guide. Jon
Grant said he even kept part of it
unwrapped so he could easily show customs agents it wasnt ivory, an obviously
illegal contraband.
But while making their way through one
airport customs proved flawless, their
final stop in Tanzania was the beginning
of a long nightmare, the couple said.
Right from the beginning, everyone
said weve never heard of anything like
this. This is crazy. Youre being charged
with poaching for having a souvenir in
your suitcase, Jon Grant said, emphasizing the couple in no way endorses illegal
killings or poaching.
He too recalled being in custody with
uniformed juveniles with AK-47s hung
around their necks keeping watch over the
Americans who were denied food and initially, Jon Grants medication.
Their tour company tried to intervene
and eventually got the head of a Tanzanian
tour guide association to get involved
thousands of dollars were shuffled to
judges and prosecutors to move up court
dates and, after three days being locked up,
the couple was able to bail out.
But then it was another nearly three
weeks of making court appearances and
staying with the wealthy head of the tour
guide association who thankfully, had
access to money and knew the scheme. But
despite bribing multiple officials, one didnt bite, Jon Grant said.
They were seriously facing 20 years in a
Tanzanian prison as new state officials
sought to make an example and put a
firm foot down on poaching. But after
reaching out to their friend and Foster City
Deputy Mayor Charlie Bronitsky, the ball
got rolling.
Ultimately, Speiers office got involved

and was able to connect with the U.S.

ambassador who finally convinced prosecutors to reduce the charge against Jon
Grant and drop the charges against Linda.
But it could have been much worse, they
said, if Speier, D-San Mateo, hadnt gotten
involved.
The couple recounted their story to
Speier in her district office Friday afternoon and the congresswoman encouraged
them to visit the Capitol and testify to
officials who could help.
Its truly alarming that that kind of gaff
can go on and Im convinced that they IDd
them as Americans that might have a few
dollars and they were going to take them
to the cleaner. And our country, we cant
allow that to go on, Speier said. Im
going to call the State Department and ask
to meet with the appropriate officials
about this because its untenable.
Otherwise I think were going to have to
basically say, dont buy anything in these
countries. And then their economies are
going to tank, so we really need to clear
this up.
Although the couple said they dont
imagine theyll be traveling anywhere
requiring a passport any time soon a
disappointment for the duo that has spent
much of their relationship visiting foreign
nations their spirits remain bright.
Theyve been home for nearly two
months. Jon Grant recovered after having
a four-day hospital stay prompted by the
stressful trip, and theyve had to take a
line of credit out on their home to pay back
the head of the tour association $62,000
half of which covered the court fine and
the remainder went to bribes and legal
fees, they said.
Ultimately, they said they came forward
with their story as a cautionary tale for
others who travel.
Linda Grant urged people to visit the
State Department websites of countries
they travel to and make sure to know the
rules and Jon Grant said the bone he didnt
even get to keep sure wasnt worth the harrowing ordeal.
Its ruined our perception of fun travel.
I think the message is, you get into these
countries where they can just do anything
they want, Jon Grant said, noting they
were initially denied an attorney and
phone call to the embassy. I think its
important to get the word out to people
that are traveling, especially in Tanzania,
theres no rules there, you have no
rights.

Code.Other California statutes and legal
authority may affect your rights as a
creditor. You may want to consult with an
attorney knowledgable in California law.
You may examine the file kept by the

Request for Special Notice (form DE154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any petition

After worst smog in 11 years, Mexico City braces for more

By Peter Orsi

1 pollution alert since 2005 on Monday due

to high ozone levels blamed on a thermal
inversion, which traps airborne contaminants from releasing upward into the atmosphere. Mexico City typically sees its worst
air smog during the winter-spring dry season when warm, still air settles in the highaltitude basin ringed by volcanic mountains.
At one point on Monday, the pollution
index edged past 200 double the level
considered acceptable but far short of the
record of 398 set in March 1992.
Since the 1990s, Mexico City has

become a vastly different place. Factories

have been cleaned up or moved away, leaded
gasoline was banned and tough emissions
standards have been imposed on cars.
Despite much grumbling the government
imposed a rule that forced cars more than
eight years old to stay parked for at least six
days each month even if they passed smog
checks.
But the Supreme Court last year overturned that rule, putting an estimated additional 1.4 million vehicles back on the
streets, many of them older, more-polluting models. As traffic jams increased, over-

all emissions were boosted even more

because cars were forced to idle, experts
say.
This weeks emergency prompted authorities to say they are studying more stringent
restrictions on vehicles including
smoke-belching government trucks that are
now exempt from smog tests though
there are likely to be more smog-bound days
before those have any effect.
Bernardo Baranda, Latin America director
for the Institute for Transportation and
Development Policy, said that officials
ought to re-establish limits on car circulation and improve cooperation across the
various jurisdictions that make up the
Valley of Mexico.
Longer-term, he called for more investment in public transportation as well as
tolls on cars and creation of areas open only
to foot and bicycle traffic.

Planning Commission meeting last

month.
Fama said health care district officials are
hopeful to trim the time frame, but much of
the completion date is contingent on the
developer selected to build it.
She is hopeful the developer will be
picked by the end of summer, which could
give greater clarity regarding when the
project may begin.
As the community along the Peninsula,
and throughout San Mateo County, continues to age, Fama said she expects the need
for senior health care services will grow
precipitously in the coming years.
Prakash Pinto, a consultant hired by the
district to develop the project, agreed, but
noted space in the designs has been preserved for interaction between generations.
A community urban garden is proposed to
be planted in the open space of the campus,
which could serve as an opportunity for
young and old to come together for a common interest, said Pinto.
Fama said such an effort could be fruitful

in compelling seniors who live in the project to get outside and interact with their
community, which is an important component of gracefully growing old.
Socialization is a key to healthy
aging, she said.
Pinto said he believed the project, should
it come to fruition as proposed, could serve
as an exemplary development that is unparalleled locally.
This could be a model for Burlingame,
and beyond, he said.
In other business at the meeting, consultants hired by the city will lead a discussion
about the ongoing effort to update the
citys general plan.
Officials kicked off an effort to gather
community outreach on the general plan
update last year, with an eye to developing
a document which defines policy for the
next couple of decades in Burlingame.
The general plan was last changed in
1969, and is due to be amended, City
Manager Lisa Goldman has said.
During the regularly scheduled meeting

Monday, March 21, the council is set to

discuss a variety of capital improvement
projects potentially financed through a tax
measure which may soon be floated to voters.
Construction of a new community center,
installing synthetic turf at Murray Field and
Bayside Park and improving bike paths as
well as the Bayfront trail are the most popular items to be funded through the tax
measure, according to a recent poll of the
council.
Going forward, the council may direct
city staff to work with a polling company
to develop a survey testing the popularity
of these items with potential voters,
according to a city report.
The joint Planning Commission and City
Council meeting begins 9 a.m., Saturday,
March 19, in the Lane Room at the
Burlingame Library, 480 Primrose Road.
The regularly scheduled City Council
meeting begins 7 p.m., Monday, March 21,
in the council chambers, 501 Primrose
Road.

You have to recognize that we

are doing better, but its still not ideal.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MEXICO CITY Choking smog returned

to the skies of Mexico City this week at
levels not seen in more than a decade,
prompting fears of more eye-watering days
to come as efforts to curb pollution run
afoul of the courts and the realities of life.
The haze that shrouded the second-largest
city in the Western Hemisphere for four
days never reached the worst periods in the
1980s and 1990s, but ultimately resulted
from the fact that there are still too many
cars on the crowded streets.
You have to recognize that we are doing
better, but its still not ideal, Javier
Riojas, a specialist in environmental sustainability
at

Iberoamericana, said Friday.

around the project have a chance to provide
feedback, Fama said.
In designing the project, Fama said officials have attempted to create a transitional
development segueing between the large
medical center adjacent to El Camino Real,
and the surrounding residential neighborhood east of Interstate 280.
We have a great deal of sensitivity in
how we relate to the neighborhood, said
Fama.
She said district officials have spent the
past months hosting town hall meetings
with nearby residents, and plan to continue
that process as the project takes shape.
Officials have said they expect the eight
buildings proposed in the development
could take as long as 20 years to construct,
which drew the concern of some during a
