A who’s who of local officials

Cleaning bikes and protecting oaks
Carlmont junior installs devices for Eagle Scout project
By Zachary Clark
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
A Belmont teen has installed bicycle-
cleaning devices at Water Dog Lake Park
that may also help protect oak trees.
Mayeul Carrot, a Carlmont High School
junior and scout with Troop 27 in San
Mateo, installed three such devices at each
of the park entrances for his Eagle Scout
project.
“Being a longtime mountain biker here
and hearing about sudden oak death disease,
I felt it was my responsibility to care for
the environment and make a change here in
a way I could,” he said, adding that the dis-
ease has killed millions of trees in
California and can be spread unknowingly
by hikers or bicyclists who don’t properly
clean their shoes and tires.
With the help of friends and fellow
scouts, including troop leader John
Ammenti, Carrot welded the metal plat-
forms, the interiors of which are lined with
multiple broom heads, and the contraptions
are anchored by a concrete foundation.
Carrot also galvanized the metal to prevent
rust. Bicyclists simply have to walk their
bikes through the cleaning device.
Carrot’s project was inspired by a similar
device he discovered while biking at
Skeggs Point. The rangers there shared
blueprints for the device, and Carrot con-
vinced Belmont Parks and Recreation to
fund the project. Each device cost about
$600 to $700 and Carrot and his colleagues
volunteered around 280 hours of labor.
“Mayeul’s bike brush cleaners are a
wonderful asset to our cyclist community
and this city’s open space acres, ” Parks
and Recreation Director Brigitte Shearer
said in a press release. “Clean bike tires
help keep car trunks and garages clean
and prevent the spread of sudden oak

death. Everyone wins. ”
Water Dog Lake Park is the only moun-
tain bike-friendly park in Belmont, and
mountain bikers come from all over the
Bay Area to ride there, Carrot said, in part
because of the technical terrain.
One of them is Paul Serra, a professional
mountain bike racer and Belmont native.
“I think what Mayeul and the Boy Scouts
have put up at Water Dog is a big step
towards welcoming mountain bikers into
the community here in the Bay,” Serra said
in the release. “It helps us clean our bikes
before leaving the park and therefore help-
ing the whole neighborhood stay clean and
healthy.”
Carrot said he initially didn’t expect peo-
ple to notice the devices, but they quickly
received attention on social media.
“Because there’s a plaque with my name

[on the devices] one person posted ‘what is
a Mayeul Carrot’ like it was the name of the
device,” he said with a chuckle. “I got a bit

US disaster agency rejects
$306M for California dam repair
SACRAMENTO — The federal govern-
ment has rejected $306 million in reim-
bursements for California’s repair of dam-
aged spillways on the nation’s tallest dam, a
state agency said Friday.
California has so far requested about $639
million from the Federal Emergency
Management Agency for the Oroville Dam
repairs, said Lisa Lien-Mager of the state’s
Natural Resources Agency. FEMA has agreed
to cover $333 million.
That’s less than about a third of the $1.1
billion the state’s Department of Water
Resources said it took to repair the dam.
Spillways on the Oroville Dam crumbled
and fell away during heavy rains in February
2017, forcing nearly 200,000 people to
evacuate amid fears the dam would collapse.
Disaster was ultimately averted, but the dam
needed significant repair.

BORREGO SPRINGS — It started with the
desert lilies in December. Since then a wave
of wildflower blooms has been crescendo-
ing across Southern California’s Anza-
Borrego desert in a burst of color so vivid it
can be seen from mountain tops thousands
of feet above.
Two years after steady rains followed by
warm temperatures caused seeds dormant for
decades under the desert floor to burst open
and produce a spectacular display dubbed
the “super bloom,” another winter soaking

even better show by Mother Nature.
Having two super blooms in two years is
highly unusual. In California, super
blooms happen about once in a decade in a
given area, and they have been occurring
less frequently with the drought.
The 2017 super bloom was the best seen
in the Anza-Borrego Desert State Park in 20
years and drew mass crowds to Borrego
Springs, a town of 3,500 that abuts the

Obituary
Louise D. Guard
March 4, 1924 – March 1, 2019
With very heavy hearts, we regretfully announce the passing
of Mrs. Louise Guard in the early morning of March 1st.
Louise could truly be called a “Cali Girl”; she was born and
raised in Sacramento, CA and graduated from UC Berkeley
in 1945. After college, she moved to Hawaii and lived there
for 42 years. She came back to California and moved into The
Stratford with her life partner of 31 years, Richard Dupere.
Throughout her life, Louise had a love for art, music and traveling. Whether it was
dining at a restaurant or vacationing on a cruise, Louise was a world traveler and
enjoyed every one of her trips. She especially favored her return trips to the Hawaiian
Islands. She was an active member of various women’s organizations, which
included serving as President of the Junior League in Honolulu, and being a member
of the Carmel Foundation in Carmel and Casa Abrego in Monterey. Within her 18
years at The Stratford, her bubbly demeanor attracted many friendships amongst both
residents and staff. She will be best remembered for her vibrant personality, great
sense of humor, having fun wherever and whomever she was with and her love for
piecing puzzles together in the Library.
She is survived by her life partner, Richard Dupere; son Paul M. Guard; grandchild
Cassandra Fritz of Honolulu; brother John V. Diepenbrock of Sacramento; and the
many descendants of the 3rd and 4th generations of Guards & Diepenbrocks and their
related family members.
Louise chose to be cremated and will be laid to rest in Hawaii where she lived a
happy and full life.

increases, county’s rate at 2.5 percent
California’s unemployment rate rose to 4.2
percent in January, an increase from a revised
rate of 4.1 percent the previous month.
In San Mateo County, the rate is now 2.5
percent, up from a low in December of 2 per-
cent. It is the lowest rate in California, with
San Francisco at 2.6 percent and Marin
County at 2.7 percent.
The state Employment Development
Department said Friday the state’s employers
added 3,000 non-farm payroll jobs during
January.
The December rate was originally put at 4.2
percent, but was revised back down to 4.1 per-
cent, where it had been since September.
Man charged in Foster
City swatting attempt
A 27-year-old Foster City man is being
charged with misdemeanor filing of a false
police report for a “swatting” attempt on a
retired San Mateo County judicial officer who
he told police “ambushed” him with rulings
in previous court hearings, according to the
San Mateo County District Attorney’s Office.
Alexander Gounaropoulos pleaded not
guilty to his charges when he appeared in
court Thursday and remains out of custody on
his own recognizance, according to prosecu-
tors.
On Nov. 16, he is believed to have called
911 and told the operator his grandmother
saw several masked men armed with guns
forcibly entering the former judicial officer’s
home. He allegedly refused to identify him-
self or say where he was, and police confirmed
with the victim’s husband nothing happened,
according to prosecutors.
The phone number used to make the 911
call was connected to Gounaropoulos, who
had previously been a party in court hearings
over which the victim presided. He allegedly
told police who conducted a traffic stop on
him that he was “ambushed” by the officer’s
rulings, according to prosecutors.
Previously convicted of felony reckless
evading of an officer and felony drunk driv-
ing, Gounaropoulos is facing five other mis-
demeanor charges for separate incidents,

Family was everything to Marilynn and

1960s, volunteer work in congressional and
presidential campaigns and San Mateo sui-

collecting that led to the founding of The
Funders, a bookstore located in the San
Mateo County Courthouse building.

Trial set for San Francisco sheriff’s
deputy accused of inmate assault
The trial for a 55-year-old former San

the San Francisco County Jail in San Bruno
was reset for May 6 Friday so witnesses of
the incident could be available, according to
the San Mateo County District Attorney’s
Office.
The trial for Linton Martin was underway
Tuesday when prosecutors learned another
San Francisco sheriff’s deputy who witnessed
the incident was unable to testify due to a pre-
planned trip. Charged with misdemeanor
assault by a law enforcement officer, Martin
is out of custody on his own recognizance,
according to prosecutors.
On June 21, 2017, Martin was working in
the San Francisco County Jail in San Bruno
and had handcuffed two inmates together in an
interview room. Obscenities were exchanged,
and one of the inmates allegedly hit Martin in
the face, causing Martin to radio for assis-
tance. A sergeant and another deputy respond-
ed, and Martin allegedly uncuffed the two
inmates and cuffed the two hands of the
inmate who hit him, according to prosecu-
tors.
The sergeant and deputy noticed Martin,
who is 6 feet tall and weighs 260 pounds,
seemed agitated and said to the inmate, “oh,
you’re safe now, you know the other deputies
are here.” He allegedly grabbed the inmate,
who is 6 feet 2 inches tall and 154 pounds,
and pushed his head down with his left hand
before dealing him several uppercuts to the
face with a closed fist, according to prosecu-
tors.
The sergeant and other deputies separated
Martin from the inmate, who did not suffer
any injuries and declined medical treatment,
according to prosecutors.

House OKs election overhaul package, Senate to slam door
By Matthew Daly
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — The Democratic-con-
trolled House on Friday approved legisla-
tion aimed at reducing the role of big
money in politics, ensuring fair elections
and strengthening ethics standards. But it
stands little chance in the Republican-run
Senate, where the GOP leader has pledged it
will not come up for a vote, and the White
House issued a veto threat.
The House measure would make it easier
to register and vote, and would tighten elec-
tion security and require presidential candi-
dates to disclose their tax returns.
Election Day would become a holiday for
federal workers, and a public financing sys-
tem for congressional campaigns would be
set up. The legislation approved 234-193
would bar voter roll purges such as those
seen in Georgia, Ohio and elsewhere, and
restore voting rights for ex-prisoners. It
was a straight party-line vote, with all
Democrats voting “yes” and all
Republicans voting “no.”
Republicans called the bill a Democratic
power grab that amounts to a federal
takeover of elections. Senate Majority
Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., said the
proposal was dead on arrival in that cham-
ber.

The White House said in a statement that
the Democrats’ plan would “micromanage”
elections that now are run largely by states
and would establish “costly and unneces-
REUTERS
sary program to finance political cam-
paigns.”
But House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-
Calif., said the bill “restores the people’s
faith that government works for the public
interest, the people’s interest, not the spe-
cial interests.”
Trying to turn Republicans’ words
against them, Pelosi said, “Yes it is a power
grab — a power grab on behalf of the peo-
ple.”
House GOP leader Kevin McCarthy of
California said the legislation would under-
mine the integrity of elections by allowing
convicted felons to vote, and would apply a
one-size-fits-all standard to elections now
run by states and local governments.
Democrats called that a mischaracteriza-
tion.
To Rep. Zoe Lofgren, D-Calif., the bill
“grabs power away from the elites and the
power brokers and gives it to the people.”
She and other Democrats disputed the
claim that taxpayers will pay for cam-
paigns, noting that money for political
campaigns would come from a surcharge on
federal settlements made with banks and
corporations that run afoul of the law.
This bill would allow “everyday
Americans to become power brokers” with
small contributions of $50 or $75 that
would be matched at a 6-to-1 rate by the
government, said Rep. John Sarbanes, D-
Md., the bill’s main author.
Still, Republicans warned that the price
tag could run into the billions.

Harassment investigations cost Chelsea Manning jailed for

taxpayers $1.8M in California
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SACRAMENTO — The California
Legislature racked up more than $1.8 mil-
lion in legal costs from sexual harassment
investigations during 2018 and the first
month of this year when at least nine current
or former lawmakers faced allegations of
misconduct, according to records obtained
by the Associated Press.
The Senate spent $1.26 million and the
Assembly $571,000, according to the docu-
ments provided under the Legislative Open
Records Act. Neither chamber provided
specifics on how many investigations the
money paid for nor how exactly it was
spent, citing attorney-client privilege and
other exemptions in the public records act.

The Beauregard, Alabama tornado was the
deadliest to hit the U.S. since May 2013,
when an EF5 twister killed 24 people in
Moore, Oklahoma.
The dead included four children and a couple
in their 80s, with 10 victims belonging to a
single extended family. Several people in
Georgia were also injured by twisters that
also extended to Florida and South Carolina,
according to the National Weather Service.
Trump had said earlier this week that the
country was “sending our love and prayers to
the incredible people of Alabama” and that
“whatever we can do, we’re doing.” He was
traveling to politically friendly territory for
him: Alabama supported Trump by a wide
margin in the 2016 presidential election.
The area where the tornado struck is gener-

Standing amid bricks and lumber that used
to be her mother’s home, Renee Frazier
waved at Trump’s helicopter as it passed over-

Minutes before, she was arguing with rela-

more about politics than compassion.

THE DAILY JOURNAL
How we can unify
By Charlie Chapman
I
n a recent surge of letters to the
editor at the Daily Journal, read-
ers debated the existence and
cause of the so called “cold civil war,”
which gives a name to the intense cul-
tural and political battles common-
place in modern American society.
While I hesitate to elevate our current
squabbles to the level of a war that
killed 620,000 Americans, it is unde-
niable that we are in a period of inter-
nal conflict that is seemingly incur-
able.
Almost daily, we are privy to dis-
plays of intense political and cultural
fighting, on everything from illegal
immigration to socialized health care
proposals. It seems as if our country
is slowly being separated into two
separate groups, with the gap between
them constantly growing. It is unsus-
tainable for our country to continue to
function at this level of political con-
flict. The remedy to our division is to
expand our understanding of what has
unified our country since its founding.
Included in this is the recognition and
acceptance that those who have differ-
ent views exist, and are still worthy
of respect and decency.
A disheartening sign for the current
state of affairs occurred last week,
when former Vice President Joe Biden
capitulated to critics who attacked his
statement that Vice President Mike
Pence was a “decent man.” Within
days of his original statement, Biden

can to survive in a corrupt world or do
we try to change it? There are no easy
solutions, so we must decide in the
moment as we follow our path.
He shows great awareness for a

absurd and danger-
ous to suggest that

policy automati-
cally signal inde-

acteristics of a person.
Intense political debate is not nec-
essarily a sign of impending nation-
wide conflict, from the beginning our
nation has been home to various fac-
tions who passionately defend their
positions. John Adams and Thomas
Jefferson, two of the most famous
Founding Fathers, were famous for a
vicious feud between the two men.
While they each held opposing views
regarding the future of the country,
both men remained in close contact
up to their death on the same day.
Such animosity becomes toxic when
political disagreement becomes a bar-
rier to acknowledging the decency of
others and being able to be friends
with them outside of politics. The
ability for political foes to separate
politics from personal relationships
and respect for other people is an
integral part of preserving our union.
Being able to compartmentalize
political arguments to separate it
from personal relationships and cul-
tural events can help to unite our
country. Having escapes from intense
Democrats to defend their president.
It is the Trump method of attack and

Trump is, you have see the type of
friends he hangs with. Let’s see.

OPINION
cultural fighting is necessary to reduce
our current level of conflict. For
instance, separating politics from
entertainment such as sports and
movies can give respite from dis-
agreements and unite people of vary-
ing viewpoints. It is not necessary
for every part of American life to
revolve around politics, as it leads to
our country becoming separated even
during times that used to unite us.
It is possible to mend the divide in
our country, but every American will
need to accept the existence of alter-
nate viewpoints and still be able to
treat those who hold them in a digni-
fied manner. Additionally, we need to
understand that our common identity
as Americans is stronger and more
permanent than any allegiance to a
single ideology. Unity can be found
through this common identity and it
can bring us together as a union as it

dread it. The Mueller report will
expose the Democrats’ public indict-

In lieu of parking
L
ast week’s column explored some of the lesser
known options for parking in downtown Redwood
City. It was inspired by the Planning
Commission’s approval of a six-story office building at
610 Walnut St. — a building that will make its internal
parking garage available to the public on nights, weekends
and holidays.
In Redwood City, buildings such as 610 Walnut St. open
their parking to the public for sound financial reasons. For
one, buildings that do so receive a substantial reduction in
the number of parking spaces that their garages must pro-
vide. But even with this reduction, some projects are not
economically viable. For this, the city has another mecha-
nism by which development projects can reduce the amount
of parking they must supply: a parking in-lieu fee.
A parking in-lieu fee allows a
property developer to pay the
city instead of including the
parking spaces that the project
should, but won’t, provide. For
example, consider the building
proposed for 610 Walnut St.
Given its size, it is supposed to
include 325 parking spaces. The
building’s garage, however, will
only have 132. Because those
132 spaces are available to the
public during non-business
hours, they are counted twice,
thus crediting the building with
264 spaces. That still leaves the
Greg Wilson
garage short 61 spaces, however. Accordingly, the develop-
er has agreed to pay the city an in-lieu fee for each of those
61 spaces.
The in-lieu fee isn’t cheap. A couple of years ago the City
Council more than doubled the fee to its current $25,000
per space. Thus, Windy Hill Property Ventures, the owner
and developer of the 610 Walnut St. project, has agreed to
pay the city a total of $1,525,000 in-lieu fees. If that
sounds like a lot, it is, but other projects have paid even
more. The building at 550 Allerton St., for instance, result-
ed in $1,550,000 in in-lieu fees. The 601 Marshall St.
building was short some 118 parking spaces, and thus the
developer paid a parking in-lieu fee of $2,950,000. And
then there is the building at 889 Winslow St. That one
would have paid the most — its 88-space parking garage
should have had an additional 137 spaces — but for a vari-
ety of reasons the total in-lieu fee paid for that project was
cut to $350,000.
These parking in-lieu fees go into a dedicated fund that
originally was going to be used to build additional munici-
pal parking downtown. However, things have changed.
People don’t seem to be driving as much, to the extent that
the parking we have downtown now appears to be adequate.
Thus, nowadays the money is used for other parking-related
functions, such as the electronic signs that indicate how
much parking is currently available in our downtown
garages.
According to Redwood City’s Fiscal Year 2018-19 budg-
et, this year some $1.8 million in Parking Fund money will
be used to add sensors that will monitor and report parking
space use downtown; to direct motorists to available park-
ing via electronic signs, websites and parking apps; to
replace the elevator in the Jefferson Avenue garage; to reha-
bilitate the two elevator cabs in the Marshall Street garage;
and to upgrade security within the city’s parking facilities.
The city will also use some of the money to create a
Transportation Demand Association, which will presum-
ably coordinate the various Transportation Demand
Management programs our new buildings use to reduce the
number of daily vehicle trips made to and from those build-
ings.
Altogether these parking-related improvement projects
will cost the Parking Fund some $1.8 million in this fiscal
year. In addition, Redwood City also plans to use $3.1 mil-
lion from the fund to pay for parking-related operations,
including meter collection, parking enforcement and the
administration and maintenance of the city’s parking
spaces and garages.
In-lieu fees are often the largest, but not the only source
of income for the Parking Fund. Some amount of property
taxes flow into the fund, as do the fees we pay to park in
city spaces and garages. If I’m reading things right, it
appears that in the average year, absent in-lieu fees, more
money flows out of the Parking Fund than flows in. In this
year’s budget, for instance, the Parking Fund began with
about $7.7 million but is anticipated to end with just under
$6 million. These figures do not include in-lieu fees, how-
ever, since those depend upon projects actually being built
and are not under control of the city.
Although the money flowing into the Parking Fund is
less than what is being spent this year, things may change
in upcoming years. And, thanks to the parking in-lieu fees,
for now the fund appears quite healthy. While that may
change if developers stop paying in-lieu fees, we likely
have years before the fund runs into trouble.

First down week since January for S&P

By Stan Choe and Alex Veiga
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Another wave of selling on Wall Street
Friday left the S&P 500 with its worst week-
ly showing since January and its eighth
loss in the last nine days.
The sell-off, which lost some strength
toward the end of the day, followed a sur-
prisingly weak jobs report and more signs
that the global economy is hitting the
brakes. On Friday a report showed Chinese
exports plunged 20 percent last month, far
more than economists expected. On
Thursday, Europe’s central bank said it was
doing a policy reversal and restoring meas-
ures to shore up that region’s economy.
Energy stocks led the market’s slide as
crude oil prices declined. Health care compa-
nies and retailers also pulled the market
lower. Most homebuilders rose following a
big jump in January housing starts.
The U.S. jobs report is the latest batch of
discouraging economic news to give
investors a reason to sell and pocket some
of their recent gains as they wait for the
next positive headline or economic data to
pave the way for stocks to move higher
again, said Mark Watkins, regional invest-
ment strategist at U. S. Bank Wealth
Management.
“We’ve had a very solid run and there are
investors who are going to be taking a little
bit of money off the table,” Watkins said.
The S&P 500 dropped 5.86 points, or 0.2
percent, to 2,743.07. The benchmark index
has fallen five days in a row, its longest los-
ing streak in nearly four months.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average lost
22.99 points, or 0.1 percent, to 25,450.24.
The average briefly fell more than 220
points.
The Nasdaq composite declined 13.32
points, or 0.2 percent, to 7,408.14. The
Russell 2000 index of smaller companies
gave up 1.74 points, or 0.1 percent, to
1,521.88.
Major European indexes closed lower.
The market’s momentum has stalled this
week after enjoying a sharp bounce back at
the start of this year. This week’s losses for
the S&P 500 are the worst since December,
but not as severe as they were then, when
worries were peaking about a slowing glob-
al economy and that interest rates may rise
too quickly. Since then, the Federal Reserve
helped calm some of the worries by pledg-
ing to be patient in raising rates.
Still, investors are feeling increasingly
uneasy about the global economy. The
Organisation for Economic Co-operation
and Development said this week that it
expects global growth to be 3.3 percent
this year, down from the 3.5 percent that it
had forecast just four months ago.
The OECD said economic prospects are
weaker in nearly all the countries that make
up the G20 than previously expected, and it
cited a slowdown in trade and global manu-
facturing, among other reasons. The United
States and China have been locked in a par-
ticularly tense trade dispute, though the
countries say they’re making progress in
negotiations.
Analysts are debating whether the U.S.
stock market’s latest moves are the last
gasps for the longest bull market on record
for U.S. stocks, which began 10 years ago
this weekend, or just the latest challenge for
it muddle through.
“Right now, the U.S. economy is gradual-
ly slowing, and earnings are trending a lit-
tle bit lower,” Watkins said. “Any news that

How Federal Reserve helped
fuel the bull market in stocks
By Martin Crutsinger
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — The decade-long
bull market in stocks was fueled in no
small part by the aggressive moves
the Federal Reserve took after the
2008 financial crisis and the Great
Recession to nurse the U.S. economy
back to health.
The Fed took the extraordinary step
of keeping its benchmark short-term
rate at a record low near zero for seven
full years. It also unleashed a series of
unorthodox initiatives. They included
a program in which for several years
the Fed bought billions in Treasury and
mortgage bonds as a way to force down
long-term borrowing rates.
All that bond buying helped depress
rates not only on loans but also on
bonds and other fixed-income invest-
ments. A result was that demand for
stocks rose as investors went seeking
higher returns than they could get from
low-yielding bonds. In that way,
among others, the Fed’s moves helped
propel the bull market.
The Fed’s role drew some criticism,
mainly from conservative
Republicans in Congress, who com-
plained that the Fed’s ultra-low rates
risked creating dangerous bubbles in
stocks or other assets that could burst
with disastrous consequences for the
economy. As a cautionary example,
some pointed to the housing market
bubble that had burst before the finan-
cial crisis and helped ignite it.
In December 2008, at the height of
the financial crisis, the Fed cut its
benchmark rate, called the federal
funds rate, to a record-low range
between zero and 0.25 percent. The
goal was to reduce loan rates for com-
panies and individuals as much as
possible to spur borrowing and
spending and thereby help stimulate
the economy. The economy, it was
felt, needed an extraordinary level of
support to recover from the worst
financial crisis and the deepest eco-
nomic downturn in seven decades.
After leaving the funds rate near zero
for seven years, the Fed began very
gradually raising it.
Beginning in December 2015, the
central bank has raised its key rate
nine times, to a range of 2.25 percent
to 2.5 percent, still low by historical
standards. When it met in January, the
Fed left rates alone and indicated that it
wouldn’t likely raise them again for at
least several months. That expected
pause has helped drive a rebound in
stock prices.
Among the steps the Fed took at the
height of the 2008 crisis was to start
an aggressive drive to buy long-term
bonds to help drive down consumer
and business loan rates. The program,
called quantitative easing, or QE,
involved three rounds of bond purchas-
es. The Fed’s vast increase in its bond
portfolio ballooned its balance sheet
more than four-fold — from under $1
trillion in 2008 before the crisis, to a
peak of $4.5 trillion in 2017.
Like the ultra-low Fed funds rate, the
torrent of bond purchases is thought to
have led many investors to shift out of
low-yielding bonds and into stocks,
thereby boosting the stock market
over time. Still, some critics argued
that the Fed was distorting the bond
market and would risk a dangerous dis-
ruption of the financial system once it
began reducing those holdings. The
Fed did begin that process in October
2017, allowing a portion of its bond
holdings to run off its balance sheet as
they matured. The Fed’s balance sheet
now stands at $4 trillion.
Some investors have fretted that the
Fed might cut its bond holdings too
much and end up slowing the economy
by sending long-term rates up too
high. But Chairman Jerome Powell
told Congress last week that the Fed
has been assessing the proper
approach to its balance sheet and is
close to announcing its final plans.
Besides keeping rates super-low and
buying long-term bonds, the Fed over
the past decade has leaned heavily on
another tool: The use of its policy
statements to provide “forward guid-
ance” about the likely path of rates.

A judge’s decision to sentence President

UK leader warns Brexit may
never happen unless deal approved
LONDON — Prime Minister Theresa May
tried to pressure U.K. lawmakers Friday to
support her Brexit deal,
warning that Britain may
never leave the European
Union if they vote down
the agreement next week.
Battling to stave off a
second defeat for the
unpopular divorce deal,
May also implored the
Theresa May EU to help her make “one
more push” to get the
agreement through a skeptical Parliament.
British lawmakers are due to vote for a sec-
ond time Tuesday on the deal, which they
overwhelmingly rejected in January. If
Parliament throws out the deal again, lawmak-
ers will vote on whether to leave the EU with-
out an agreement — an idea likely to be reject-
ed — or to ask the EU to delay Brexit beyond
the scheduled March 29 departure date.
“Back it and the U.K. will leave the
European Union,” May said. “Reject it and no
one knows what will happen.”
In a speech to factory workers in the
staunchly pro-Brexit northern England port
town of Grimsby, May said a delay could lead
to “more months and years arguing” over
Britain’s departure from the EU.
Venezuela buckles under massive
power, communications outage
CARACAS, Venezuela — Venezuela’s worst
power and communications outage on Friday
deepened a sense of isolation and decay,
endangering hospital patients, forcing
schools and businesses to close and cutting
people off from their families, friends and the
outside world.
While electricity returned to some parts of
Caracas nearly 24 hours after lights, phones
and the internet stopped working, several
other populous cities remained in the dark as
evening approached. “I’m desperate,” said
Maria Isabel Garcia, a 39-year-old office work-
er who hadn’t been able to buy food for her
three young children because she wasn’t able
to take money out of the bank on Thursday.
The blackout marked another harsh blow to
a country paralyzed by turmoil as the power
struggle between Venezuelan President
Nicolas Maduro and opposition leader Juan
Guaido stretches into its second month and
economic hardship grows.
Venezuelans have grown begrudgingly
accustomed to power cuts, but nothing like
the one that hit during rush hour Thursday
evening, sending thousands of people on
long nighttime treks in the dark to their
homes.

publicly-available surface parking lots and
the Worker Resource Center have been tak-
ing shape since MidPen was selected by
city officials as the developer nearly a year
ago.
With plans to include a public plaza aimed
at connecting the residential building to
downtown and an opportunity for public art
on the parking garage, the nonprofit devel-
oper asked community members to weigh in
on design elements aimed at tying it in with
nearby downtown retail establishments as
well as neighboring single-family homes
and industrial uses. Mollie Naber, a project
manager for MidPen, noted an open space in
the middle of the residential building will
also be accessible from East Fourth and East
Fifth avenues to connect residents of the
building to the surrounding neighborhood,
and added a repurposed rail car will serve as
a pedestrian bridge over East Fifth Avenue
to connect them with the parking garage
and community space planned for the
garage’s ground floor.
“We envision that this development will
serve as a gateway to downtown,” she said.
“We’re taking into account our existing
neighbors as we work on the design for this
development and we want to create space for
people to stop by and feel part of the com-
munity.”

the express lanes, which will be free for
buses and carpools of three people or more,
but solo drivers who choose to use those
lanes will have to pay a toll. Tolls will fluc-
tuate based on traffic conditions, though
initial projections suggest prices will aver-
age $1 per mile in San Mateo County.
Officials claim the other lanes without
tolls will also see relief once the facility is
in place. Part of the plan is to roll out an
expanded network of express buses that will
use the new lanes and officials hope many
solo drivers will commute that way instead.
The tolled facility in San Mateo County is
expected to generate $10 million to $20
million a year and that money must be rein-
vested into the corridor.

46 two-bedroom units and 39 three-bed-
room units available in the development,
the rents of the units will depend on the
income level of the families who apply,
which Naber explained would fall largely
within 30 percent to 120 percent of the area
median income. According to the 2018 San
Mateo County Income Limits posted on the
San Mateo County Housing Department’s
website, the area median income for a fami-
ly of four is $118,400.
Depending on a family’s income, month-
ly rent for a 475-square-foot studio could
range from $700 to $2,000 while rent for a
three-bedroom apartment could range from
$1,144 to $3,774. Naber added families liv-
ing or working in San Mateo may qualify
for the workforce housing, and preference
for public employees would be applied to a
portion of the units available to families at
the moderate income level.
In response to questions about the selec-
tion process for residents of the develop-
ment, Nevada Merriman, MidPen’s director
of Housing Development, said applications
for the housing likely wouldn’t be ready
until the development is six months from
completion. She said applications would be
accepted over the course of two to three
weeks after which point they will be put
through a lottery, adding that preferences
for certain types of candidates would be
applied before a list is compiled.
As the owner of a home at East Fifth
Avenue and South Delaware Street, Gustavo
Hornos said he hoped the developer would
consider moving the location of a public
plaza planned for the corner of the residen-
The ultimate goal is to have an express
lane network throughout the Bay Area,
including continuous express lanes between
San Francisco and San Jose. Officials are
already planning that expansion as well as a
funding strategy.
“We’ll continue with the development of
legislation this year looking at a Bay
Areawide transportation measure that will
include hopefully completing the entire
Bay Area express lane system,” said state
Sen. Jim Beall, D-San Jose. “It works best
when you have everything developed and
you don’t have to go in and out of express
lanes. We want the whole system developed
and we hope to have that, with discussions
in the future on the Bay Areawide measure.”
Speeches also addressed the issue of equi-
ty, which remains a concern for many resi-
dents.
“Some have raised issues around the toll
lane,” said Assemblyman Kevin Mullin, D-
San Mateo. “The reality is when all of the
tial building at East Fourth and South
Railroad avenues to an alternate location,
such as one farther away from the train
tracks along South Claremont Street.
Though he acknowledged the plaza near the
train tracks could get more sunlight, he felt
the noise of the train could deter people
from using it.
“We can withstand the shade, but it would
be a much more inviting location for the
plaza since the noise of the train is really
strong,” he said.
Hornos also expressed a hope for resident
input on the public art planned for the
development, and Heather Stewart from San
Mateo’s Community Development
Department explained residents are wel-
come to attend the city’s Civic Arts
Committee meetings to weigh in on specif-
ic public art projects.
In response to questions about how the
developer would help mitigate its effect on
traffic and schools, Naber and Jan

er will pay traffic and school impact fees and
is also prepared to offer bus passes and
explore any other traffic mitigation meas-
ures that could be identified through a traffic
study. Naber noted some of the children liv-
ing at the development may have attended
San Mateo schools before their families
move there, and Lindenthal noted the devel-
oper has been collaborating with school
officials to account for any changes to
enrollment and also to scope its potential
to house teachers.
“I fully expect that we’re going to pay our
commuters across all of the lanes in this
corridor benefit — that is equity. When
there’s shared benefit for all of the com-
muters not only on 101, but when we elec-
trify Caltrain, this entire corridor is going
to see a tremendous amount of investment
and everyone is going to benefit.”
Officials have also repeatedly expressed
interest in establishing an equity program
so that low-income drivers can use express
lanes at a discount.
Managed Lanes construction will occur in
two main phases. Between March and
November of this year, the carpool lanes
between the Whipple Avenue exit and the
Santa Clara County line will be converted to
express lanes with tolling equipment.

of 2021, the new lanes will be constructed
along with tolling infrastructure between

For Central Neighborhood resident Laurie
Watanuki, the possibility of temporarily
housing the Worker Resource Center in a
modular unit on one of the existing surface
parking lots while the parking garage is
constructed was a concern.
Councilmembers earlier this week voiced
support for relocating the nonprofit-operat-
ed facility aimed at connecting day laborers
with local jobs in the community space
planned for the development, as well as
where the center will be temporarily moved
as construction takes shape. Watanuki won-
dered if officials would consider closing the
center during the construction of the devel-
opment out of concern downtown visitors
searching for parking at the existing lots
might park in the Central Neighborhood.
“We do have concerns if that is temporar-
ily moved there because of the parking
overflow,” she said.
Assistant City Manager Kathy Kleinbaum
explained temporarily housing the Worker
Resource Center in a modular unit was an
alternative that could be considered if offi-
cials aren’t able to find another temporary
site for the facility.
City Planner Roscoe Mata said MidPen’s

takes place, and not before.
Managed Lanes construction impacts
include nighttime lane closures, temporary
ramp closures and temporary city street clo-
sures, according to the San Mateo County
Transportation Authority website.
The project was funded largely by Senate
Bill 1, Regional Measure 3, Measure W as
well as funding from Google and Facebook.
“We believe this is how you reduce con-
gestion on freeways, by diverting carpools
and buses and, if space is available, toll
payers to an express lane,” said Maryann
Moise Derwin, chair of City/County
Association of Governments and also a
Portola Valley councilwoman. “This is how
you change behavior, by encouraging peo-
ple to drive in carpools or take express
buses that fly through traffic. And because
this is how you ultimately reduce green-
house gases, by keeping cars moving at a
steady speed.”

The Colts had five days to prepare for
Saturday’s semifinal opponent as well. Will

as well.
While the odds may be long, Cañada is
relishing the opportunity to compete with
the top team in the state.

fall short. In one game, Cañada had cut the

Chapman healthy
and ready to help
A’s contend again
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
MESA, Ariz. — Matt Chapman didn’t have a lot of time to
savor his strong season — or the Oakland Athletics’ surprise
playoff run — during the winter.
The 25-year-old third baseman had planned to have surgery on
his right thumb after the season ended, but he also ended up get-
ting an operation on his left shoulder in December. Both injuries
had been bothering Chapman for a while.
“The shoulder was kind of a fluke thing,
but it was hurting me the last couple years,”
Chapman said. “Just overuse. ... I didn’t real-
ly think it was anything besides just being
sore.”
Now he’s ready to build on a year in which
he hit 24 homers, won a Gold Glove and fin-
ished seventh in AL MVP voting.
His preparation has been compressed
because of the surgeries and Oakland’s early
Matt Chapman start to spring training and the regular sea-
son. The A’s will travel to Japan to play the
Seattle Mariners in the season-opening series on March 20-21.
“I think he’s right on schedule,” Oakland manager Bob Melvin
said Friday. “We maybe got him in there a day earlier than we
expected. He’s running up close to 20 at-bats, which I didn’t
think we’d have right now. I think everything’s going great with
him.”
Chapman has been to the plate 16 times this spring, with four
walks and four hits including a double and a home run.
“Just getting more and more healthy and strong each day,” he
said. “No excuses now.”
The A’s won a surprising 97 games last year even with injuries
to their entire starting rotation. Now they’re aiming even high-
er.
“Hopefully continue to build on what we did last year,”
Chapman said. “One hundred wins. Win the division. If your
goals going into the season aren’t to win your division or make
the playoffs, then what are you playing for?”
Chapman thinks his defense can improve even after he won the
Gold Glove and the Platinum Glove, given to the best overall
fielder in the AL. He made 20 errors last season and wants to
reduce that number.
His defensive prowess invites comparisons to the NL Gold
Glove third baseman, Nolan Arenado, who was just rewarded by
the Colorado Rockies with an eight-year, $260 million deal.
“He obviously deserves that. He’s also (would have been) a free
agent at 27, I’m gonna be 30. It’s a little different,” Chapman
said. “That’s far in the future for me, but I’m off to a good start.”
NOTES: LF Khris Davis (left calf strain) made his Cactus
League debut on Friday. Davis, who has appeared in minor-league
games this spring, was the designated hitter and batted cleanup.
Facing San Diego prospect Chris Paddack, Davis struck out
swinging on a 95-mph fastball in the first inning and flied to
deep center in the fourth. Davis led the majors with 48 homers
last season and drove in a career-high 123 runs.

Women’s national soccer team sues for equitable pay
By Anne M. Peterson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Three months before beginning their
defense of their Women’s World Cup title,
American players escalated their legal dispute
with the U.S. Soccer Federation over equal
treatment and pay.
Players filed a federal discrimination lawsuit
against the federation Friday, alleging ongo-
ing “institutionalized gender discrimination”
that includes unequal pay with their counter-
parts on the men’s national team.
The women’s team has often championed
equal rights issues and sought more equitable
pay during collective bargaining two years
ago.
“I think a lot of people look to us and our
team and the collective voice that we have and
what we’ve stood for, for inspiration and for
power, and as an ally in this broader fight for
equality and human rights, really,” said winger
Megan Rapinoe, a co-captain and veteran of
149 international appearances.

Tim Ritvo, chief operating officer of the
organization that owns Santa Anita. “We
need to definitely take a step back and eval-

But this isn’t a problem confined to one
track.
Activist Patrick Battuello says that thou-
sands of racing horses die every year in the
United States — so much for that “one horse
is too many” refrain — and the sport has
undoubtedly dragged its feet for far too long
to institute common-sense changes that
would greatly improve the health and safety
of its 1,200-pound athletes.
Battuello documents the annual death toll
on his web site https://horseracing-
wrongs.com , which lists 817 horses as
killed while racing or training in 2018, plus
another 100 that died on track grounds from
what were described as non-racing ailments.
But he says that’s merely the tip of a very
deadly iceberg, failing to encompass states
that deny his requests for information or
don’t require the reporting of deaths during
training. It also misses those that die at pri-
vate training facilities.

“We believe it is our duty to be the role models that we’ve
set out to be and fight to what we know we legally deserve.”
— Christine Press, striker U.S. Women’s National Soccer Team
The 28 members of the current women’s
player pool filed the lawsuit in U.S. District
Court in Los Angeles under the Equal Pay
Act and Title VII of the Civil Rights Act.
The lawsuit, which seeks class-action sta-
tus, was filed on International Women’s
Day.
Players seek damages that include back
pay.
“We believe it is our duty to be the role
models that we’ve set out to be and fight to
what we know we legally deserve,” forward
Christen Press told the Associated Press.
“And hopefully in that way it inspires
women everywhere.”
The U.S. Women’s National Team Players
Association is not party to the lawsuit but
said in a statement it “supports the plain-
tiffs’ goal of eliminating gender-based dis-
training on U. S. tracks every year, ”
Battuello said Friday.
He wonders why horse racing still exists
when Ringling Bros. circus has gone out of
business, Sea World is in decline, and grey-
hound racing has been voted out in Florida,
essentially eliminating that sport in the
U.S.
“What makes horse racing exempt?”
Battuello asked. “This is not a sport at all.
It’s a gambling game. But with the ability
to gamble on various other things now,
with full-service casinos and lotteries and
sport betting, there’s no excuse for this to
still be a thing in 21st-century America.”
Especially the way it’s being run.
This is a sport that continues to be regu-
lated by a hodge-podge of state-run organi-
zations, with no real oversight at the
national level. This is a sport that contin-
ues to grapple with the unnecessary drug-
ging of horses, often to mask injuries that
should’ve been given more time to heal.
This is a sport that has far too many owners
who are more concerned about making a
quick buck than protecting their animals.
“You now have a sport that is predomi-
nantly made up of cheap racing, where the
investors more often than not are expecting
those horses to produce income for them,”
Lyons said. “This is no longer the sport of
kings, so to speak, where one rich person
tries to breed a better horse than another
crimination by USSF.”
The USSF did not have an immediate com-
ment.
The men’s and women’s U.S. national
teams have separate collective bargaining
agreements, and their pay is structured dif-
ferently. That means there is no dollar-to-
dollar salary comparison.
The lawsuit claims that from March 2013
through Dec. 31, 2016, when the previous
collective bargaining agreement expired,
players on the women’s team could make a
maximum salary of $72,000, plus bonuses
for winning non-tournament games as well
as World Cup appearances and victories, and
for Olympic placement.
“A comparison of the WNT and MNT pay
shows that if each team played 20 friendlies
in a year and each team won all 20 friend-
rich person.”
Lyons maintains that the vast majority of
catastrophic racing injuries are preventa-
ble, the result of repeated smaller injuries
that go undetected or are simply ignored in
hopes of getting a horse on the track as
much as possible.
“These are orthopedic failures, not single-
step failures. The horse didn’t step in a hole.
The horse didn’t take a bad step,” she said.
“If you bend a paper clip back and forth 200
times, then put it back in shape so it looks
brand new and hand to me, the next time I
bend it, it might come apart in two pieces
even though I insist I did not bend it hard.
That’s how these fractures occur.”
It starts with a microfracture. Then a
small, partial fracture. Finally, in the heat
of a big race or perhaps just a light training
session, the bone shatters.
It seems sudden, a fluke.
Most likely, it’s not.
“This is really just the normal physiolog-
ical consequence of an increasing work-
load,” Lyons said. “Take a human runner.
Most runners know that when they increase
their distances and then say, ‘Boy, my shins
were killing me last night after a run,’ that
they need to back off for the next week.
They need to let it heal. What they do with
horses is give them anti-inflammatories
without a diagnosis, then keep training and
racing.”

lies, female WNT players would earn a max-
imum of $99,000 or $4,950 per game,
while similarly situated male MNT players
would earn an average of $263, 320 or
$13,166 per game against the various lev-
els of competition they would face,” the
lawsuit says.
It concludes that a top-tier women’s play-
er would make only 38 percent of a similar-
ly situated men’s player.
A pay disparity was very apparent at the
World Cup: In 2014, the federation gave the
men’s roster a performance bonus of nearly
$5.4 million after the U.S. went out in the
round of 16 in Brazil. The women’s team
received a bonus of $1.72 million after win-
ning the 2015 World Cup in Canada.
The last time the U.S. men made the World
Cup field (for Brazil) male players selected
to the roster received a $55,000 bonus,
while the women received $15,000 each for
making the 2015 World Cup, according to
court documents. Additionally, the men
shared a $2 million bonus for qualifying,
while the women shared $300,000.
Lyons said new technology is being
developed that would allow a CT scan to be
performed in a matter of minutes on a
horse’s front and rear legs, which could be a
revolutionary step forward in equine med-
ical care. But the industry must be willing to
pay for the machines, which are expected to
cost about $300,000 apiece. Also, there
must be enforcement in place to ensure that
when a potential problem is discovered, the
horse is kept off the track until fully healed.
In the meantime, Santa Anita is focusing
on the condition of its track after an unusu-
ally cold, wet winter.
That’s all well and good, but it misses the
bigger issue.
Horse racing needs far greater changes,
needs to show it really cares about the
health of its equine athletes.
Otherwise, maybe Battuello and other ani-
mal-rights activists are right.
Maybe the entire sport needs to be shut
down.
“I’ve had the honor of working with some
of the best racehorses that ever lived. This
is my childhood dream come true,” Lyons
said. “But I agree there are two choices.
Either fix it — or it’s no more.”

caught up to M-A as the Bears find them-
selves mired in sixth place in the 10-team
division.
“Boys’ volleyball has really taken off,”
said Hillsdale head coach Dwight Crump,
who has been involved with the sport for 26
years at the middle and high school, and
club levels.
Indeed it has. The league expanded from
eight to 10 teams this season, with El
Camino and Sequoia joining the ranks.
Crump said three more teams will begin
league play next year and that the PAL will
be split into two competitive-based divi-
sions.
Just to show how much has changed, M-A
has already lost more league games this sea-
son, two, than it did during the first three
seasons of PAL play combined. Filling the
void left by the Bears are Carlmont and
Hillsdale, who are both 4-0 to start league
play, while Aragon continues to show it has
staying power and currently sits at 3-1.
But the real change has come from teams
that have consistently finished lower in the
standings. Both Capuchino and San Mateo,
who struggled through the 2018 campaign
with a combined league record of 2-18, sit at
3-0 and 2-1, respectively, with the Bearcats
having knocked off Aragon earlier in the
season.
The growing strength of the PAL can be
attributed to an increase of awareness about
the game. More and more boys’ club teams
and programs are popping up on the
Peninsula and around the Bay Area and
Crump said he is starting to see more play-
ers coming into high school with more
experience under their belts.
“Boys’ volleyball has been around, but it
hasn’t been as popular in the Bay (Area).
But now, there are at least six boys’ club
teams in the Bay Area,” Crump said. “I see
players coming in with one or two years (of
experience). You’re also seeing a little more
middle schools getting into the program.”
The improved play can also be seen in the

number of quality players scattered around
the league, with nearly all the competitive
teams fielding at least one bona fide hitter.
Carlmont, which many believe is the odds-
on favorite to win the PAL title and the auto-
matic CCS berth that comes with it, features
junior Ethan Mayoss. He had 10 kills in a
straight-set sweep of M-A March 2 and fol-
lowed that up with 16 kills against San
Mateo and 14 more in a sweep of South City
Thursday.
Hillsdale may be the most versatile team
in the division, with any number of hitters
who can swing it. The Knights are led by a
pair of sophomores in Noah McLean and
Zach Martella. San Mateo features Jason Wu
and Ryan Savage, just to name a few.
“I’ve seen the evolution of the boys’ pro-
gram,” Crump said. “In my four or five years
of boys’ volleyball, it has now taken off (in
popularity).”
The growth of the PAL in size and ability
has been noticed throughout the rest of the
section and, with M-A winning first-round
CCS matches in 2017 and 2018, it’s only a
matter of time before the PAL receives more
than one automatic bid to the playoffs.
“[The rest of CCS] is very excited about us
(the PAL) because we’re a young league …
and we’re growing so fast,” said Diean
Hala’ufia, head coach for Aragon and the
PAL representative to CCS.
Crump believed it would take longer for
the PAL to reach the level where teams can
be competitive with more established teams
and leagues, like the West Catholic Athletic
League or the Santa Clara Valley Athletic
League. But he now thinks at least the upper
half of the PAL has arrived as Aragon,
Carlmont and M-A will all face CCS stalwart
Serra during non-league play this season.
“I figured it (the growth of the league and
the game) would be very slow. I’m actually
proud to see where we are,” Crump said.

El Camino’s first-year varsity
manager Casey Owen has his team
off to a 3-1 start. And Stubbles is a
big reason why. The athletic 6-1
shortstop is batting .583 (7 for 12)
on the year, and also figures to be
the Colts’ ace on the mound.
Owen served as El Camino’s jun-
ior-varsity for the past two years.
And while he didn’t manage
Stubbles until this season, he
recalls the excitement when the cor-
nerstone talent moved across town
to EC in 2018.
“I think everybody was excited to
have him,” Owen said. “He’s a qual-
ity player. He’s played great … and
he’s definitely a team leader.”
While Stubbles registered three
hits in his final three at-bats, his
most impressive plate appearance
came in the first inning on an RBI
groundout to shortstop.

the first with a single to left against

bases of the year by swiping second

steals in the game.
With one out, Stubbles came
within a few feet of hitting his first
home run of the year on a 1-1 pitch
with a booming shot down the left-
field line, but it curled foul. On the
following 1-2 offering, Stubbles
shortened up and turned in a clutch
situational swing by driving home
Dayao with a groundout toward the
middle of the infield.
“I was going to try to go to the
right side, just try to get the job
done,” Stubbles said.
Soto extended the lead to 3-0 later
in the inning. After back-to-back
walks by Justin Vargas and Josue
Iniguez, Soto lifted a fly ball to cen-
ter field that would be a can of corn

Kevin Durant added 26 points
and six assists, and Stephen Curry
scored 17 points. DeMarcus
Cousins had a strong outing on

“Personally, I would love to get
the field fixed,” Soto said of the
short porch. “But since this is our
home park we try to use it as an
advantage.”
El Camino starting pitcher Ryan
Thompson worked 3 2/3 innings to
earn the win, and had to escape a
jam in the third inning to do so.
South City sparked a two-out rally
on back-to-back single by Daniel
Marroquin and Dominic Cayabyab.
Then House, batting out of the
cleanup spot, returned the favor with
a high shot off the center field wall
to plate both base runners, cutting
El Camino’s lead to 3-2.
The Colts got the runs back in the
bottom of the inning, though. Noel
Valdez and Stubbles led off the frame
with back-to-back singles. Both
runners moved up on a groundout by
Vargas, with the South City short-

charging play and a throw on the run
to get the out at first. But EC cashed

sophomore Jaden Francisco. But
once reliever Justin Keegan entered,
the EC bullpen would face just one
batter over the minimum through 3
1/3 innings. Keegan worked 2 1/3,
with four strikeouts and a walk,
though the lone runner was wiped
out on a double play in the fifth.
The Warriors totaled five hits on
the day. They opened the year with
a 9-3 loss to San Mateo, totaling
just two hits in the game. They
then dropped a 14-4 decision to
Terra Nova.

Soto then struck out three and walked
one in the seventh to end it.
The game was El Camino’s first

A special-ops heist goes
awry in ‘Triple Frontier’
By Jale Coyle
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Job opportunities seldom diverge
as greatly as they do for the former
special forces operatives of J.C.
Chandor’s “Triple Frontier.” There
is selling condos or taking contract
work in an African warzone.
There’s stocking shelves at
Walmart or taking down a South
African drug lord. And you
thought your LinkedIn profile had
inconsistencies.
Yet those are exactly the kinds of
choices facing a quartet of ex-mil-
itary veterans who are rounded up,
“Blues Brothers”-style, by
Santiago “Pope” Garcia (Oscar
Isaac), their former brother in arms
who now works for a mysterious
company contracted vaguely by “a
foreign government.”
With the promise of that old
temptation — “one last job” —
and the potential for a major pay-
day, Garcia gathers each old pal —
Tom “Redfly” Davis (Ben
Affleck), William “Ironhead”
Miller (Charlie Hunnam), Ben
Miller (Garrett Hedlund) and
Francisco “Catfish” Morales
(Pedro Pascal) — with little trou-
ble. Once at the pinnacle of their
profession, they’re all struggling
to adapt to civilian life. Davis is a
divorced, heavy-drinking real
estate broker with little talent for
it. Miller is getting his face kicked
in as a cage fighter.

Teen angst hits the Old
West, in D’Onofrio’s ‘Kid’
By Jocelyn Noveck
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
“There’s no such thing as the West any-
more.” That’s actually not a line from “The
Kid,” Vincent D’Onofrio’s new coming-of-
age Western starring Ethan Hawke, Dane
DeHaan and Chris Pratt. It’s from Sam
Shepard’s play “True West,” currently on
Broadway — and also starring Hawke.
In fact, can we talk about Hawke for a
minute? The veteran actor is having quite
the run these days, on screen and stage.
Many feel he was unconscionably robbed of
an Oscar nod for “First Reformed,” and he’s
delivering a superb performance in “True
West.” He’s also the most substantial rea-
son to see “The Kid,” a nice idea that is,
alas, thinly executed.
The “kid” in the title is not, actually,
Billy the Kid, the renowned outlaw whose
story loosely inspires the film. It’s a 13-
year-old kid named Rio (Jake Schur), who,
as we begin, witnesses his mother being
beaten to death by his evil father. Rio man-
ages to shoot and kill his dad — only to face
the wrath of his vengeful uncle (Chris Pratt,
in true villain mode). Rio and his older sis-
ter, Sara (Leila George) just barely escape
into the night.
On the run, with only the vague plan of
finding their mother’s friend in Santa Fe
(the action is in late 19th-century New
Mexico), the pair take refuge in an aban-
doned shack, where they run smack into
Billy (DeHaan) and his companions. Billy’s
on the run, his pursuer none other than Pat
Garrett (Hawke), the new sheriff in Lincoln
County, a gruff but philosophical law-and-
order man whose mission is to bring Billy
to justice.
When Garrett and his men quickly find and
capture Billy, Rio and his sister — lying
about the reason for their journey — hitch a
WEEKEND JOURNAL
ride with the group to
Santa Fe. Along the way,
Rio comes to admire
Billy, portrayed by
DeHaan as roguish and
charming, and even
helps him try to break
free. Arriving in Santa
Fe, Rio and Sara immedi-
Vincent ately run off — straight
into a trap laid by evil
D’Onofrio Uncle Grant, who kid-
naps Sara and warns Rio that if he pursues
them, both siblings will die.
Now Rio needs to make a choice: who’s
more likely to help him rescue Sara, the
charismatic outlaw or the upstanding sher-
iff? More profoundly, will Rio become a bad
good guy or a good guy?
The teen becomes fast friends with Billy,
but if you know your history, you’ll know
that Billy, also named William H. Bonney,
did not eventually die of natural causes
(though in this depiction of the West, death
by bullet does seem to be the natural order of
things.)
In any case, Schur (son of producer Jordan
Schur) has a sweet, soulful face but the script
gives him little depth to work with. The
character of Sara fares even worse; women in
this world seem to exist solely to be a) pret-
ty, b) wronged, and c) rescued.
As for Billy and Pat Garrett, both roles
have been played by dozens of actors over
the years. DeHaan gives Billy an appealing-
ly impish spin, though he seems a bit old
for the part. Pratt, covered with facial hair,
revels in evil vibes. Hawke takes a fairly
one-dimensional character and gives it an
intelligent and shaded performance. It’s
worth noting that this isn’t the team’s first,
er, rodeo: Hawke, Pratt and D’Onofrio
appeared together in the 2016 Western “The
Magnificent Seven.”

Foothill on target with
‘Bullets Over Broadway’
By Judy Richter
DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT
Gangsters, molls, egotistical actors, an
aging diva and an aspiring playwright all
add up to fun in “Bullets Over Broadway, the
Musical, ” presented by Foothill Music
Theatre.
Woody Allen’s musical version of his and
Douglas McGrath’s screenplay is well
directed and aptly cast by Milissa Carey.
Set in New York City in 1929, it’s the
story of playwright David Shayne (Adam
Cotugno), who has had no plays produced.
His luck changes, or so he thinks, when
nightclub owner and mob boss Nick (Steve
Repetti) offers to back it. There’s one
caveat: His dumb blonde girlfriend, Olive
Neal (Jocelyn Pickett), must be in it.
For his part, David says there must be no
changes in the script and Helen Sinclair
(Carla Befera) must play the lead. She hasn’t
any juicy roles lately, so she joins in.
Because Nick doesn’t trust Olive, he
assigns henchman Cheech (Nick
Mandracchia), to make sure she doesn’t go
astray.
As rehearsals begin, it’s clear that Olive
can’t act, can hardly read and has a limited
vocabulary.
Not only that, but the actors keep ask-
i n g fo r ch an g es , an d Dav i d refus es .
However, Cheech quietly gives him new
dialogue that sounds genuine and meets

the actors’ approval.
In the meantime, David thinks he has fall-
en in love with Helen even though he has a
longtime girlfriend, Ellen (Allie
Townsend). Moreover, Olive begins sneak-
ing off with an actor, Warner Purcell
(Andrew Ross), who has an affinity for food.
Before it’s all over, several people wind
up dead, and others learn a hard lesson.
Each of the principal characters seems
perfect for his or her role. All are good
actors and competent singers. All have good
comic timing.
The music comprises familiar tunes from
uncredited sources, such as “Tiger Rag,” “Up
a Lazy River,” “I’m Sitting on Top of the
World” and others. They’re accompanied by
a six-person orchestra, including music
director Louis Lagalante on keyboard.
Choreography by Claire Alexander is
another high point, especially as danced by
The Atta-Girls and the gangsters. The latter
get lots of laughs as The Four Franks in the
suggestive “I Want a Hot Dog for My Roll,”
sung by Olive.
Running about two and a half hours with
one intermission, “Bullets Over Broadway”
will continue through March 17 in the
Lohman Theatre, Foothill College, 12345
El Monte Road, Los Altos Hills. Because of
some of the language and adult situations,
parental discretion is advised.

Muslim family faces
conflicts in Marin’s
‘The Who & the What’
By Judy Richter
DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT

Love of family tops the deep-seated conflicts that arise in

Ayad Akhtar’s “The Who & the What,” presented by Marin
Theatre Company.
Set in Atlanta in 2013, it starts innocuously when
Mahwish (Annelyse Ahmad) urges her older sister, Zarina
(Denmo Ibrahim), to get married.
They are the adult daughters of Afzal (Alfredo Huereca), a
widowed Palestinian immigrant and devout Muslim who
owns a successful cab company.
He, too, wants Zarina to get married after putting the
kibosh on the Catholic man she had loved. He even pre-
tends he’s her on Muslim dating sites to find suitable suit-
ors. KEVIN BERNE
When Eli (Patrick Alparone), a convert who has become Afzal (Alfredo Huereca) dotes on his daughter, Zarina (Denmo Ibrahim) in ‘The Who & the What.’
imam of a small congregation, meets with Afzal’s approval,
Zarina reluctantly agrees to meet him in a local café.
She tells Eli that she’s writing a book about gender poli-
tics but is suffering from writer’s block.
However, her book is not so much about gender politics
as it is an examination of the prophet Muhammad. It focus-
es on his seventh and favorite wife, who’s his former daugh-
ter-in-law.
The tradition of Muslim women wearing a veil stems from
this erotic relationship, Zarina contends.
In subsequent scenes, Zarina and Eli have married, she has
completed her book, and Mahwish is married but not happi-
ly.
Still later, Mahwish is divorced and seeing a man she
loves.
The climactic scene occurs after Afzal reads Zarina’s book
and is enraged by what he regards as blasphemy, leading to
a heated confrontation.
Akhtar’s script is meaty, yet nuanced, especially in its
portrayal of Afzal, who’s torn between deep love for both
daughters and devotion to his religious beliefs, including
women’s subservience to men.
Director Hana S. Sharif manages these emotional ups and
downs with skill and perception, aided by four fine actors.
For people who might not be familiar with the play’s
Muslim references, the program includes helpful defini-
tions. Displays in the lobby add more background.
Running about an hour and 40 minutes without intermis-
sion, “The Who & the What” will continue through March
24 at Marin Theatre Company, 397 Miller Ave., Mill
Valley.

LOS ANGELES — The producers of “The

that featured the voice of Michael Jackson
after HBO aired a documentary in which two

“It feels like the only choice to make,”

Fellow executive producers Matt

Smollett indicted on 16 counts
stemming from reported attack
CHICAGO — A grand jury in Chicago
indicted “Empire” actor Jussie Smollett on
16 felony counts related to making a false
report that he was attacked by two men who
shouted racial and homophobic slurs.
The Cook County grand jury indictment
dated Thursday and made public on Friday
gives details of the disorderly conduct
charge against Smollett. It elaborates on
the allegation that he falsely reported that
he was attacked on Jan. 28 by two masked
men who hurled racial and homophobic
slurs at the black and openly gay actor, beat
him, threw an unidentified liquid chemical
on him and looped a rope tied like a noose
around his neck.
The indictment — eight counts from what
started, regret begins to creep in.
Launched with a mix of altruistic and capi-
talistic intentions, the expedition begins
to mirror other American international
overreaches, and, not unlike in
Afghanistan or Iraq, the former soldiers
find themselves leaving stacks of cash to
compensate for the deaths of villagers.
Things turn dark and in a frantic escape
over the Andes, the value of money plum-
mets.
Allegories of capitalism have proven a
passion for Chandor, who has made money
an ever-present subtext in crime dramas
(“A Most Violent Year,” with Isaac as an
ambitious heating-oil businessman) and
survival tales (“All Is Lost”). His debut,
“Margin Call,” was about a Wall Street
investment bank in the tumult of a finan-
cial crisis.
With each film, Chandor’s scale has
expanded, and part of the thrill of “Triple
Frontier” is the finely staged set pieces

(probably a few too many dudes, if we’re
counting) — and every one of the Spanish-
speaking locals — are too thinly
sketched. Affleck draws the Bogart card
from the “Sierra Madre” types, but the rest
— talented as they are — don’t come
through clearly. Only Isaac, with remorse
creeping over his face, leaves a mark.
“Triple Frontier” has the good sense to
take a macho, “Expendables”-like set-up
and turn it inward. It just doesn’t go far
enough.
“Triple Frontier,” a Netflix release, is
rated R by the Motion Picture Association
of America for “violence and language
throughout.” Running time: 125 minutes.
Two and a half stars out of four.

JOBS
Continued from page 1
311, 000 in January. Even with
February’s anemic gain, job growth
over the past three months has aver-
aged a solid 186,000, enough to lower
the unemployment rate over time.
And average hourly pay surged 3.4
percent from a year earlier — the
sharpest year-over-year increase in a
decade. The unemployment rate also
dropped to 3.8 percent, near the lowest
level in five decades, from 4 percent in
January.
All told, Friday’s monthly employ-
ment report from the government
pointed to a still-sturdy job market and
economy.
“The U.S. labor market is still in
good shape,” said Gus Faucher, chief
economist at PNC Financial. “Slower
job growth was expected after huge
average gains of better than 250,000
over the preceding four months. Job
growth should bounce back in March
and through the rest of this year.”
Last month’s pullback in hiring does
follow signs that U. S. economic
growth is probably slowing because of
a weaker global economy, a trade war
between the United States and China
and signs of caution among American
consumers. Those factors have led
many analysts to forecast anemic
growth in the first three months of this
year.
But most economists still cautioned
against reading too much into
February’s sluggish pace of hiring.
The monthly employment data can be
volatile. During the nearly decade-
long recovery from the Great
Recession, job growth has sometimes
plunged in a single month — to
15,000 in May 2016, for example, and
to 18,000 in September 2017 — only
to rebound to healthy levels in the
months that followed.
And February’s increase in average
pay suggests that businesses are step-
ping up their efforts to attract and keep
workers. The year-over-year increase
of 3.4 percent in February is up from a
corresponding figure of just 2.6 per-
cent a year ago.
Julia Pollak, a labor economist at
jobs marketplace ZipRecruiter, said
many companies are becoming
increasingly hungry for workers. The
number of job ads on its site that offer
to pay for training, she said, jumped
42 percent last year from 2017. And
positions that offer flexible hours
soared 110 percent — a trend that could
draw more women with family respon-
sibilities off the sidelines and into
work.
“Employers are finding all these
ways to sweeten the deal and invest in
their employees,” Pollak said.
Carole Witkowski, vice president of
human resources at Batteries and
Bulbs, said her 700-store retail chain
has raised starting hourly pay for
workers at its distribution center from
$11 to $12, with additional raises for
those working evening and overnight
shifts.
The company has taken other steps,
she said: Jobs at the distribution cen-
ter, located outside Milwaukee, don’t
require high school diplomas and have
been plagued by high turnover. Many
workers can find jobs elsewhere.
Others haven’t worked much before
and aren’t always used to showing up
on time regularly. So about 18 months
ago, the company started paying $250
each quarter to workers who arrive on
time every day.
And in the suburbs outside Chicago,
when the company received no appli-
cations in response to retail job post-
ings last winter, it offered a $500 sign-
ing bonus. That shook loose some
applicants.
“We got a little aggressive there,”
Witkowski said.
Nationally, though, the sluggish
hiring and job cuts in February were
widespread across industries.
Construction cut 31, 000 jobs, the
most in more than five years, likely
because of cold weather.
Manufacturing added just 4,000, the
fewest in a year and a half, a sign that
Trump’s trade war has raised costs and
lowered exports for many factories.
Retailers cut 6,100 positions, while
jobs in a category that mostly includes
restaurants and hotels were unchanged.

the tepid pace of hiring. The govern-
ment uses one survey of households to
calculate unemployment and a separate
survey of businesses to count job
growth, and sometimes the results of
the two surveys diverge for a single
month.
The jobless rate for African-
Americans, which hit a record low of
5.9 percent in May and has frequently
been celebrated by President Donald
Trump, rose for a third straight month
in February to 7 percent, its highest
point in more than a year. The rate for
Hispanic and Latino Americans,
though, dropped to a record low of 4.3
percent.
The overall jobless rate fell partly
because thousands of federal workers
had been temporarily counted as unem-
ployed in January during the partial
government shutdown. They returned
to work and were counted as unem-
ployed in February.
Also on a positive note, the propor-
tion of part-time workers who’d prefer
full-time jobs fell sharply. That meas-
ure had risen in January during the
shutdown as some furloughed govern-
ment workers took part-time jobs tem-
porarily. But in February, a gauge of
what is called underemployment,
which includes part-timers who want
full-time work and discouraged people
no longer looking for jobs, reached
7.3 percent, the lowest level since
2001.
There are signs that the economy is
slowing: Consumer confidence fell
sharply in January, held back by the
shutdown and by a steep fall in stock
prices in December. And Americans
spent less over the winter holidays,
with consumer spending plunging in
December by the most in five years.
“We are seeing a fading of the effects
of the Trump tax cut and increased gov-
ernment spending, ” which helped
accelerate growth last year, said Sung
Won Sohn, chief economist at SS
Economics.
Analysts generally foresee growth
slowing sharply in the first three
months of this year to just a 1 percent
annual rate, down from a 2.6 percent
rate in the October-December quarter.
Still, most expect a rebound in the
April-June quarter, and there are
already signs of one: Consumer confi-
dence rose in February along with the
stock market. And more Americans
signed contracts to buy homes in
January, propelled by lower mortgage
rates.

The San Bruno Planning Commission will meet Tuesday,
March 19 2019, at 7:00 p.m. at the Senior Center, 1555 Crystal
Springs Road, San Bruno, CA to take action on the following
items. All interested persons are invited to attend.
741 San Mateo Avenue Request for Use Permit to allow alco-
hol beverage sales (Type 41 ABC lic.) in conjunction with a
restaurant d.b.a. “JC Bruno”, per Section 12.84.210 and
12.96.120.C of the SBMC. Recommended Environmental De-
termination: Categorical Exemption. UP19-003
533 San Mateo Avenue Request for Use Permit to allow alco-
hol beverage sales (Type 42 ABC lic.) in conjunction with an
art studio “Pinot’s Palette”, per Section 12.84.210 and

termination: Categorical Exemption. UP19-001
850 Cherry Avenue Request for Use Permit to allow alcohol

500 Sylvan Avenue - Request for a Zoning District Amend-
ment to establish and Planned Development District, Planned
Development Permit, Architectural Review Permit, Conditional
Use Permit, and CEQA conformity determination to allow con-
struction of a new three-story, multi-family residential building
containing nine dwelling units and 14 total parking spaces, pur-
suant to Section 12.136, 12.96.190, 12.108, and 12.96.120 of
the San Bruno Municipal Code. Alan William Coon (Applicant),
Suresh Gandhi (Owner). PD18-001, PDP18-001, AR18-002,
UP18-012.
Zoning District Amendment: An amendment to the Zoning
District to change from the current Low-Density Residential (R-
2) zoning classification to a Planned Development District (P-
D), and to adopt a related District Development Plan to estab-
lish use and development standards is required.
Recommended Environmental Determination:
The 500 Sylvan Avenue project is located within the Transit
Corridors Plan (TCP) area. A Program Environmental Impact
Report (EIR) and Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program
was prepared for the TCP and was adopted by the City Council
on February 12, 2013. The 500 Sylvan Avenue property was
analyzed in the TCP EIR at a programmatic level, with poten-
tial impacts identified and mitigations applied in the program
EIR to avoid or reduce potentially significant impacts.
Under California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines
sections 15168 (Program EIR), 15162 (Subsequent EIRs and
Negative Declarations), and 15183 (Projects Consistent With a
Community Plan or Zoning), subsequent individual projects
can utilize a previously certified program EIR if all potentially
significant environmental impacts of the proposed individual
project: (1) have been previously identified (i.e., are not new)
and are not substantially more severe than those identified in
the previous EIR, (2) have been avoided or mitigated to the ex-
tent feasible as a result of the previous EIR, and (3) have been
examined in sufficient detail in the previous EIR to enable
those impacts to be avoided or mitigated by the mitigations in
the EIR, site-specific project revisions, or the imposition of uni-
formly applicable development policies. If these conditions are
met, then the City can approve the individual project as within
the scope of the previous EIR, and no additional environmental
document is required. The certified TCP EIR and the 500 Syl-
van Avenue project meet these CEQA conditions.
Small Wireless Facility Ordinance and Small Wireless Fa-
cility Design, Siting and Engineering Guidelines. Receive
report, take public testimony, and provide feedback to staff on
a draft ordinance amending Title 8 (STREETS, SIDEWALKS,
AND RIGHTS-OF-WAY) of the San Bruno Municipal Code and
accompanying policy resolution to establish provisions and
procedures for regulating the design, placement, and engineer-
ing of Small Wireless Facilities in the Public Right-of-Way and
Easements on Public and Private Properties.

Silicon Valley is returned to the communi-
ty,” David Smith, an attorney representing
DMB, said in a statement. “It’s a new day
and Reimagine Saltworks looks forward to
engaging the public in a thoughtful way to
drive a new vision of the solutions
Saltworks can provide.”
The site was once used to harvest commer-
cial salt and has had different development
proposal iterations over the years. The most
recent proposal by developer DMB Ventures
would have created about 12,000 homes
amid some wetlands restoration but was
dropped in 2012 after years of controversy.
Smith didn’t say what may be proposed,
instead describing a planned extensive out-
reach through community forums, regional
meetings, discussions with local govern-
ments, businesses and community advo-
cates.
Mayor Ian Bain suggested DMB will not
hear the sort of feedback it might want to
hear in those discussions.
“The community wants to see the site
restored to wetlands and there’s close to zero
appetite for another housing proposal,
“Bain said. “The site is not zoned for hous-
ing, I don’t want to see it rezoned and that’s

still my position. What I would like to hap-
pen is I’d like to see Cargill donate or sell
the land to a group that would restore it to
wetlands.”
The announcement has caused consterna-
tion among environmentalists, including
Save the Bay, which has been fighting
development on the site for years. 
“It’s a terrible precedent that threatens
San Francisco Bay water quality and wet-
lands and weakens the Clean Water Act,”
said David Lewis, Save the Bay’s executive
director. “This determination directly con-
tradicts the conclusion of an extensive
review and recommendation from EPA
Region 9 in 2016, which found that the
entire Saltworks site is within the jurisdic-
tion of the Clean Water Act.”
While any development proposal would
be subject to approval by the Redwood City
Council, the site is also subject to other
approvals by the Bay Conservation and
Development Commission and federal agen-
cies.
Lewis said hundreds of local, regional,
state and federal officials are on the record
over the last decade opposing development
on Bay salt ponds.
