A child shows a picture of his brother, Nidhal Selmi, a youth who was killed
during fighting in Syria. Nidhal, a middle-class footballer with a bright
future whose family said had everything from a BMW car to the latest

Second, the fact that this facility is
shared between the city and the district
is of benet to both groups. The
crossover between high school participation and participation in BAC programs is substantial for both athletes
and coaches alike. BAC provides a
stable, professional training environment for many district athletes to train
year-round without having to travel
out of the area, and with BAC coaches
often working as coaches of district
programs, those programs benet
from having career-minded coaches as
their leaders. The most recent example
of this success is the Burlingame High
School swim team, led by 10-year
head coach Chris Culp who joined this
community as the head coach of the
BAC swim team in 2004. Both the
BHS girls and boys teams won the
PAL regular season crown in 2014, as
well as the PAL championship meet,
both going undefeated for the year.
Not only is BAC able to bolster the
districts athletic programs by establishing a stronger, more stable coaching presence, we are able to help
develop life skills for many young
district students. This past summer, 38
(64 percent) of our 59 lifeguards and

For the second straight year, CSM didnt

this year they had the third.
As a consolation, CSM improved its alltime record in Bulldog Bowl play to 8-1

OKLAHOMA CITY Golden State sharpshooters Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson
couldnt find the hoop, and the injurydepleted Thunder were giving the Warriors
all they could handle.
Journeyman forward Marreese Speights
came to the rescue, scoring 28 points to
help the Warriors beat Oklahoma City 9186 on Sunday night. It matched the secondhighest scoring game of Speights career
and was his best total since 2009.
Speights, again, was ridiculous, Warriors
coach Steve Kerr said. He carried the load for
us offensively when we needed it.
Speights had averaged 17 points the previous three games on 64 percent shooting.
Its gotten to the point where his teammates
are no longer surprised when he goes off.
Hes getting an opportunity and playing
confident and showcasing what he can do,
Curry said. It says a lot about him that he
stayed ready, being in and out of the rotation early in the season.
Thompson scored 20 points and Curry
added 15 for the Warriors (10-2), who won
despite shooting a season-low 35.5 percent
from the field. Thompson and Curry, two of
the top 10 scorers in the league, combined
to make just 11 of 35 shots.
Reggie Jackson had 22 points, 11
rebounds and eight assists, and Anthony
Morrow added 16 points and matched a
career high with 12 rebounds for Oklahoma
City. Serge Ibaka scored 16 points, but shot
just 5 of 17 for the Thunder (3-13), who lost
their sixth in a row.
Curry was fouled with 16 seconds left and
the Warriors up by two. Curry, who had made
47 of his first 49 free throws this season,
missed the first and made the second to give
Golden State an 89-86 lead.
Jackson drove and found Andre Roberson,
who missed everything on an open 3-pointer.
Leandro Barbosa, left, shuffles past Thunder guard Reggie Jackson in the Warriors 91-86 win

Jackson said. I think they got a little

Andre was wide open, so we made the right
play, trusted him to make the shot and
unfortunately, it didnt go in.
Thompson was fouled and made two free
throws with 5.7 seconds remaining to put
away the game.
Late in the second quarter, Jackson was
fouled on a drive and right-handed dunk, and
he made the free throw to cut what had been
a 10-point Warriors lead to two. Thompson

We really pride ourselves on

head coach Ron Whitmill said.
We think we can be better than
anybody we play against in those
areas. So, for her to come and kind
of set the tone, dig balls, make
some plays on defense really
helped us.
Game 1 went down to the wire
and Homestead took an early 6-5
lead. But Joos produced back-toback kills to swing the advantage.
The Mustangs kept pace but, with
M-A leading 8-7, Tavarez kept a
rally alive by digging a serve
return with a high-handed backrow bump; the rally was later punctuated by sophomore middle
blocker Eliza Grovers first of four
match blocks.
The point inspired a Bears
blocking spree. M-A extended its
lead to a comfortable margin with
junior opposite hitter Rachel
Gerber and Joos notching back-toback roofs to give the Bears an 117 lead. Tavarez followed with a difficult serve receive which Knapp
set for a textbook Joos kill to go
up 12-8.
Then Collins and Ostrow got
cooking from the outside to balance M-As offense. When
Homestead came roaring back
behind the front-row play of senior Connor Bunka to overcome a
5-point deficit and tie it at 19-19,
Ostrow answered with her fourth
kill of the set to give M-A a 20-19
edge. A Joos kill followed to maintain the lead at 21-20.
Tied at 22-22 after a service ace
by Homesteads Sofia Olsson, a
steady serve receive by Tavarez
got M-As offense in system for
another Knapp set for Joos, who
produced her sixth kill of the game
to give the Bears the lead for good
at 23-22. Knapp followed with
two straight service points to end
it, giving the Bears a 1-0 lead in
the match.
Once we got into the flow, we

Please also consider trimming trees outside your home this holiday season or
winter. Far too often, local residents who
have their outside trees trimmed in the
spring harm local wildlife which have
nesting babies in those trees. We know
this because they bring the orphaned or
injured animals to us: its part of our mission to care for sick, injured and orphaned
wildlife. Another approach is to not prune
trees at all. A growing number of arborists
believe pruning actually harms trees and
suggest pruning only to remove dead or
diseased branches. We have an exception
to this: we recommend that homeowners
trim trees when the tree branches give
wildlife access to your roof where they can

PROP. 2
Continued from page 1
County Board of Education issued a joint
statement opposing the cap on district
reserves on Nov. 5, the day after the measure
was approved by California voters.
We (the County Office of Education) are
not directly impacted, but our school districts are, Magee said. In light of local
control, the emphasis is on local control
and making decisions on how much reserve
a district could maintain should be up to
local districts.
School district officials and boards of
trustees often fill reserves to ensure stability during uneven funding years, sometimes
exacerbated by state legislative decisions.
The fiscally conservative approach is to
have a higher lever of reserve, Magee said.
For that reserve to be arbitrarily determined and limited is something that has
school districts operating potentially precariously, she added.
However, reserves have been a point of
contention particularly during contract negotiations when teacher groups say more should
be provided to aid classroom instruction.
Details of Proposition 2
Proposition 2 provides what is called a
rainy-day fund, which requires annual transfer of state general fund revenue to a budget
stabilization account. Half the revenue will
be used to repay state debts and the law limits use of remaining funds to emergencies or
budget deficits. It also creates a stabilization fund from school reserves if the

wants him to be able to enter the
Mandarin program at John Gill in the
future.
Im Chinese; I spoke it growing up
as a kid, Watanabe said. Being able to
speak the language means a lot to me.
My husband is not Chinese and he is
also learning. One of the best ways to
learn is taking a Mandarin immersion
program. I could send my kids to San
Mateo, Mountain View or Fremont, but
it would be great if there was something
in our community.
The John Gill Mandarin program will
carry onto the middle school level during the 2022-23 school year for students at John F. Kennedy Middle
School, which had space to house the
children and could handle second language acquisition program.
This program will be part of the districts Schools of Choice that do not
have neighborhood boundaries and
offer special programming. Priority
goes to district children, but out-of-district children can also apply. The district also offers a Spanish immersion
program at Adelante Elementary School
and Orion Alternative School. The district added a K-5 Spanish immersion
program at Selby Lane School during
the 2013-14, which will pick up at
Kennedy as well.
The district feeds into the Sequoia
Union High School District, which
does offer Mandarin, so students would
be able to continue their studies of
Mandarin into high school. The high
school district also offers Spanish,
French and Mandarin at Carlmont High
School; Latin, Spanish, French and
Mandarin at Menlo-Atherton High
School; French and Spanish at Sequoia
High School; and French, Spanish,
Local brief
investigation into the crash revealed
a man in a 1995 Toyota Camry wagon
was traveling the wrong way on the
highway and was approaching the
Redwood Sanitary Landfill over
crossing when he crashed head-on
into a 2013 Nissan Sentra with a
male driver and female passenger.
Investigators said both vehicles
were traveling at freeway speeds.
After the collision, the Toyota came
to rest in the center divide, and the
Nissan overturned, was hit by a 2006
Dodge Ram pickup truck heading
south and ended up on its roof in a
ditch.
The drivers of the Toyota and Nissan
were both pronounced deceased at the
scene. The woman passenger of the
Nissan was transported to the hospital
with moderate to major injuries. The
driver of the truck was not injured.
The highway was shut down for
several hours as crews worked the
Mandarin and Latin at Woodside High
School, according to the district.
Other programs
In the San Mateo Union High School
District, Mandarin is offered at Aragon,
Burlingame, Hillsdale, Mills and San
Mateo high schools. Capuchino is now
the districts only comprehensive high
school without a Mandarin program.
Spanish is offered at every comprehensive high school in the district, according to the district website. The courses
of study for Chinese were approved by

Thats a question at the center of a national

A new proposal in New Jersey makes it the
latest state moving to require college campuses to define when yes means yes in an
effort to stem the tide of sexual assaults.
Whether the policy will reduce assaults
remains unclear, but states and universities
across the U.S. are under pressure to change
how they handle rape allegations.
California adopted a similar measure in

State University of New York system to

Whatever the verdict is, we have to understand thats the verdict.
As they wait, some people have continued daily protests, while speculation has
grown that the delays are intentional.
