Lawmaker wants to fix 101

Highway congestion only getting worse, bill defines multi-year process
By Bill Silverfarb
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

A state lawmaker is aiming to develop a

strategy to tame traffic on Highway 101 as
the rebounding economy has led to slower
commutes.
Assemblyman Kevin Mullin, D-South
San Francisco, introduced Assembly Bill
378 Wednesday to address congestion relief

Kevin Mullin

on the 48-mile stretch of

highway between San
Francisco and San Jose.
The bill declares that
the corridor is the most
economically productive
and important stretch of
highway in the state and
that its transportation
capacity is grossly

insufficient to serve the growing number

of commuters.
It also declares that bad traffic on 101 has
led to serious overcrowding on Caltrain.
The bill seeks to provide a framework
fo r addres s i n g maj o r co n g es t i o n
through San Mateo County by bringing
together the business community, transportation experts and city officials to
engage the commuting public on ways

to alleviate the congestion.

The bill calls for regional transportation
agencies to take swift and decisive action to
relieve commuter congestion.
Mullin cautions, however, that developing the strategy could be a multi-year
process.
Given the impact traffic delays have on

As Redwood City embarks on ways to draw more benefits

out of future developments, its residents have made it clear
what is needed the most is affordable housing.
The city currently does not charge developers a fee to add
to the citys stock of affordable housing but has joined with
other cities to study the feasibility of such a program.
The city, especially downtown, is experiencing an
unprecedented growth spurt currently with the construction
of new offices and apartments.
Affordable housing advocates, however, contend the
boom is leading to escalating rents and pushing out the
citys working poor.
On Tuesday night, the citys Planning Commission heard
a report from Principal Planner Diana ODell on the proposed framework for a Community Benefits Program that
includes the possibility of imposing new fees on developments to offset their impacts.

Construction underway at Broadway overpass

New configuration is expected to make road less confusing and easier to navigate
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Caltrans crews began pile driving as

part of construction on the new
Broadway overpass in Burlingame, on
the north and south off ramps of
Highway 101, as well as the center
median.
The work, scheduled last week, is
scheduled to continue through the middle of April, spanning from 7 a.m.

until 5 p.m. There are no lane closures

or detours expected as part of the
process, but some work may take place
during the weekend, according to a city
report.
Pile driving prepares the foundation
and support of the new Broadway overpass.
The overpass is in the midst of a
total overhaul, which is slated to cost
$83 million, and will replace the
existing bridge between Rollins Road

Local man finalist for mission to Mars

Montara man one of 100 to potentially colonize foreign planet by 2024
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Space exploration has been a childhood

dream of many, but few have actually had the
opportunity to pursue traveling to another
planet.
But for Peter Felgentreff, a resident of
Montara, the dream of traveling to, and living on, Mars is closer than most will ever
get.
Felgentreff is one of 100 people selected as
a finalist to participate in the Mars One expedition, which aims at setting up a human
colony on the red planet in less than a decade.
Mars One, a nonprofit organization, selected 50 men and 50 women from a group of
200,000 applicants around the world to
potentially inhabit Mars by 2024.
Felgentreff, 50, said his lifelong appreciation of science and innovation inspired him
to get involved in the expedition, when his
wife presented the idea to him years ago.
I love science. Anything with science, Im
behind it. Im a curious person, I like knowing how things work and I like to experiment, he said.
As a worker in the technology security
field, Felgentreff said that he believes his
problem-solving ability served him well in
getting this far in the process.
Also, his propensity for communicating
and interacting positively with others aids
his odds of getting selected, since teamwork

Peter
Felgentreff

will be imperative for

those establishing a
colony on a foreign planet, he said.
While the selection
process moves forward,
finalists will begin a round
of interviews and physical
training exercises, some
in extreme conditions,
designed to replicate the
unforgiving environment

in outer space.
Mars One plans to establish centers in
deserts or Arctic environments for small
groups to train in, and some of the training
could be televised, as organizers hope to capitalize on broadcast rights to fund the mission.
Felgentreff said he has faith in advances of
modern technology to help him survive the
harsh climates he may face, either in training,
or eventually on Mars.
Applicants should expect an intensive
training regiment, Felgentreff said. Perhaps
something similar to what soldiers experience when enlisting in the armed forces.
The simulations that Mars One put together will be rigorous, he said. Like boot camp
for astronauts. And boot camp is not a pleasant thing. It is designed to prepare you for
war. Its about surviving in a really, really
hostile environment, where you make one
mistake and you are toast.

But ultimately, there is only so much training someone who is not a professional astronaut can undergo to familiarize themselves
with the hardship of space travel or colonization, he said.
Others selected to the 100 finalists work as
teachers, artists, engineers and business professionals, among other jobs.
As the selection process develops,
Felgentreff said he hopes to maintain a normal life, but always with an eye on potentially earning a one-way ticket to Mars.
Its thrilling. Its intense. But I do my normal things, Im a normal person, he said.
A married man for more than a decade, with
no children, Felgentreff said the key to preventing a possible move to Mars from getting in the way of a healthy marriage is to live
in the present.
Ten years is a really long time, but we are
not worrying about the future, said
Felgentreff, of the time frame before the Mars
One mission is scheduled to launch.
He said assessing a potential life-threatening situation in the mission to Mars is not
much different than the danger people face
every day.
What if something goes wrong? But I
could be driving on Highway 101, and something could go wrong, he said.

Deputy faces more

charges in jail conspiracy case
The former San Mateo County sheriffs
deputy formerly accused of conspiring to
smuggle cellphones and drugs into county
jail was charged with nine additional felonies
and two misdemeanors Wednesday, according
to the District Attorneys Office.
The new charges Juan Pablo Lopez, 51,
faces include embezzlement, perjury and election fraud, District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe
said Wednesday.
Lopez, once a write-in candidate for county
sheriff, allegedly used donations from his
campaign for his own personal use and lied
about his city of residence, Wagstaffe said.
Lopez listed his residence as being in
Redwood City but allegedly was living in
Newark when he filed to run for sheriff,
Wagstaffe said.
He is charged with embezzlement for securing a home loan for allegedly filing false documents, he said.
Juan Lopez, correctional officers George
Ismael, 40, and Michael Del Carlo, 43, Hells
Angel Dionicio Lopez and his girlfriend and

Local brief
two family members all
pleaded not guilty in
January to the conspiracy
charges.
In November, Juan
Lopez, Del Carlo and
Ismael were arrested after a
10-month investigation
that prosecutors say
revealed the men helped
Juan Lopez
deliver
cellphones,
Oxycodone, Alprazolam and Ibuprofen to
Dionicio Lopez while he was in custody
between April and December 2013.
Juan Lopez, who unsuccessfully ran against
Sheriff Greg Munks last year and had 26 years
on the job, is of no relation to Dionicio.
The arrests stemmed from both a tip within
the jail and when an inmate was found with a
cellphone, according to prosecutors.
Juan Lopez posted $180,000 bail
Wednesday and is due back in court March 6.
Prosecutors said he did not smuggle the cellphones in himself but knew they were being
used in the county jail illegally.

Refinery units were heavily damaged after an explosion at the Exxon-Mobil refinery in Torrance.

Blast devastates refinery,

injures four, rains down ash
By Tami Abdollah
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

TORRANCE An explosion devastated a

section of a refinery on Wednesday morning, shaking nearby homes, raining down
ash and injuring four people. Experts said
the disruption to production would likely
drive up gas prices in California.
The blast at the Exxon Mobil Corp. facility occurred in a recently installed processing facility, Fire Department spokesman
Steve Deuel said. The four-story structure
was shattered, and four contractors suffered
minor injuries.
Electrical contractor Cory Milsap-Harris,

21, was in a switch house next door to the

blast site keeping an eye on three colleagues working 8 feet underground in a
manhole. Everything was going smooth.
Next thing I hear sounded like heavy metal
next door. There was a loud bang, he said.
You could feel the building shake a little.
The blast reverberated in his ears despite
the several layers of hearing protection he
routinely wears, Milsap-Harris said. He
rushed his co-workers outside, where people
were running away from flames and black
smoke.
Residents within a mile or two reported
feeling a sharp jolt that they initially
thought was an earthquake.

Jeb Bush: U.S. must

tighten the noose
in fight against IS
By Thomas Beaumont
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CHICAGO Former Florida

Gov. Jeb Bush said Wednesday
there can be no diplomacy with
Islamic State militants, but only a
U. S. -led coalition of Middle
Eastern countries committed to
tightening the noose and taking
them out.
In a wide-ranging speech outlining his vision of Americas place
in the world, part of the
Republicans run-up toward a likely campaign for president in
2016, Bush laid the rise of the
Islamic State group at the feet of
President Barack Obama. He also
made his most overt criticisms to
date of his brothers administration, telling the audience of several hundred people, I am my own
man.

My views are shaped by my

own thinking and own experiences, Bush said at an event hosted by the Chicago Council on
Global Affairs. Each president
learns from those who came before
their principles, their adjustments.
There were mistakes made in
Iraq, for sure, during President
George W. Bushs administration,
Bush said during a question-andanswer session that followed his
20-minute speech. He said intelligence about Saddam Husseins
possession of weapons of mass
destruction was not accurate and
the U.S. initially failed to create
an environment of security in the
country after removing the Iraqi
leader from power.
But Bush praised his older
brothers decision to surge
troops into Iraq in 2007, which

added roughly 20,000 troops to
the American forces in the country
in an effort to improve security.
He called it one of the most heroic acts of courage politically of
any president, given the weak support for that strategy in Congress.
Bush raised the criticisms of his
brother without prompting, and

used them was a way to critique

Obamas handling of the Middle
East. He said Obama failed to
maintain what he called a fragile
but stable security situation that
his brother left behind in Iraq
upon leaving office in 2009.
Had he done so, Obama would
not have allowed the void to be

filled by Islamic State militants

who now control large parts of
Iraq and Syria. He said there can be
no discussions with the group,
which has drawn condemnation
across the region and the world for
carrying out regular acts of violence, often on video, that
includes beheadings.

California lawmakers address importance of vaccinations

By Kristin J. Bender
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO At a time

when California is gripped in
one of the worst measles outbreaks in recent history, several
lawmakers are pushing for new
legislation that would ensure

more children are protected

against measles and other transmittable diseases.
California Sen. Barbara Boxer
joined state Sen. Richard Pan, DSacramento, a pediatrician, on
Wednesday on a tour of a Head
Start center in Emeryville, where
every child is vaccinated, to
address the importance of vacci-

nations for children as young as

preschool.
When we take our children and
grandchildren to school, to a
park, to a daycare center, or to a
Head Start program, we deserve
to know that they will be safe,
especially if the child has a
weakened immune system,
Boxer said.

Public health officials said 119

people in California have contracted the highly contagious
respiratory disease that can cause
pneumonia, brain damage and
death in rare cases. About twothirds visited or worked at
Disneyland or had contact with
somebody who was there. Some
two dozen other measles cases

tied to Disneyland have also

been confirmed in six states,
Mexico and Canada.
Also troubling, Boxer said, is
that in more than one quarter of
California schools, the measles
immunization rate for kindergarteners is below the 92 percent
threshold that doctors say is critical to protect public health.

Florida has highest number of enrollees under health law

By Kelli Kennedy
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. Florida has

eclipsed California to become the state with
the highest number of consumers buying
health coverage through new insurance markets under the Affordable Care Act, according
to federal statistics released Wednesday.
Floridas roughly 1.6 million enrollees
include both first time enrollees and some of
the nearly 1 million Floridians who enrolled
last year. California led the country last year
with 1.2 million consumers, but lagged
behind this year with a total of 1.4 million
300,000 fewer than the states goal. The
state has struggled to target hard-to reach
populations including Latinos.
Floridas enrollment win comes despite
significant Republican opposition in the
state and a much smaller population than
California, which has embraced the law,
spent millions on outreach efforts, and
established its own state exchange.
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, 3.8
million of Floridas 19.5 million residents
were without health insurance, making it
the third-highest in the nation at 19.5 percent. By comparison, 6. 5 million of
Californias nearly 38 million residents

were without health insurance, about 17 percent.

Floridas high numbers show the pent-up
demand for insurance. Floridas roughly 20
percent of uninsured residents ranks it
behind only Texas and Nevada. Texas had a
rate of 22.1 percent and Nevadas was 20.7
percent. California came in ninth, according
to figures released by the U.S. Census Bureau
last fall.
Floridas Republican lawmakers have
strongly opposed Medicaid expansion,
which would provide coverage to an estimated 1 million additional low-income
Floridians. In contrast, an additional 3 million Californians gained coverage due to
Medicaid expansion.
Last month, Indiana became the 28th state
to agree to expand Medicaid, and the latest
state with a Republican governor to do so. At
least 9.7 million people have gained coverage through the laws Medicaid expansion,
which targets low-income adults with no
children living at home.
Florida hospitals, health advocates and a
growing part of the business community
have made numerous efforts to pressure key
Republicans to expand the program during
the legislative session which begins next
month, but it again seems like a non-starter.

Kate Brown sworn in as Oregon

governor; predecessor resigns
By Jonathan J. Cooper
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SALEM, Ore. Kate Brown was sworn in

Wednesday as Oregons governor following
an influence-peddling scandal that prompted
the resignation of fellow Democrat John
Kitzhaber, who had been the states longestserving chief executive before his swift fall
from grace.
Brown assumed Oregons highest office
during a ceremony at the state Capitol.
Brown, formerly the secretary of state,
becomes the first openly bisexual governor
in the nation.
In a speech to the Legislature after her
swearing-in, Brown praised Kitzhaber for
his contributions but also said we must
restore the publics trust.
There is a great deal of work ahead of us,
and Im ready to roll up my sleeves and get
to it, she said in a brief address.
Meanwhile, Kitzhaber, in one of his final
acts as governor, commuted the prison sentence of a young inmate whos serving a 12year sentence for attempted murder and other

charges.
The commutation document, obtained by the
Associated Press, doesnt
reveal why Kitzhaber
decided to release Sang
Dao more than three
years before his earliest
possible release date.
However, last summer
Kate Brown
his fiancee, Cylvia
Hayes, whos at the center of the ethics
scandal that prompted Kitzhaber to step
down, spoke at a youth correctional facility where the 25-year-old Dao received a
college degree as part of a rehabilitation
program, according to a report in the
Woodburn Independent.
Hayes faces allegations that she used her
relationship to enrich herself.
Kitzhaber, who didnt attend the inauguration, has denied wrongdoing and has consistently maintained that he and Hayes
worked hard to avoid conflicts between her
public and private roles. He did not immediately respond to an email asking why hed
decided to commute Daos sentence.

Exp. 2/28/15

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, 3.8 million of Floridas 19.5 million residents were without
health insurance, making it the third-highest in the nation at 19.5 percent.

Barack Obama speaks at the White House Summit on Countering Violent Extremism.

President says U.S. at war with

those who have perverted Islam
By Josh Lederman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Muslims in the

U. S. and around the world have a
responsibility to fight a misconception that terrorist groups like the
Islamic State speak for them, President
Barack Obama said Wednesday in his
most direct remarks yet about any link
between Islam and terrorism.
For weeks, the White House has sidestepped the question of whether deadly
terror attacks in Paris and other
Western cities amount to Islamic
extremism, wary of offending a major

world religion or lending credibility to

the war on terror that Obamas predecessor waged. But as he hosted a White
House summit on countering violent
extremism, the president said some in
Muslim communities have bought into
the notion that Islam is incompatible
with tolerance and modern life.
We are not at war with Islam,
Obama said. We are at war with people
who have perverted Islam.
While putting the blame on IS and
similar groups Obama said the militants masquerade as religious leaders
but are really terrorists the president also appealed directly to promi-

nent Muslims to do more to distance

themselves from brutal ideologies. He
said all have a duty to speak up very
clearly in opposition to violence
against innocent people.
Just as leaders like myself reject the
notion that terrorists like ISIL genuinely represent Islam, Muslim leaders
need to do more to discredit the notion
that our nations are determined to suppress Islam, Obama said.
Issuing such a direct challenge to
Muslims marked a clear departure from
the restrained, cautious language
Obama and his aides have used to
describe the situation in the past.

CAIRO Libya, virtually a failed state in recent years,

has succeeded in one way: Its providing a perfect opportunity for the Islamic State group to expand from Syria and
Iraq to establish a strategic foothold closer to European
shores.
Extremists loyal to the group have taken control of two
Libyan cities on the Mediterranean coast, have moved
toward oil facilities and are slowly infiltrating the capital,
Tripoli, and the second-largest city, Benghazi. They have
siphoned off young recruits from rival militant groups
linked to al-Qaida and in some places taken over those
groups training camps, mosques and media networks.
Notably, there appears to be strong coordination between
the Libya branch and the groups central leadership in Syria
and Iraq. One of its top clerics, Bahraini Turki al-Binali, has
visited the Libyan city of Sirte to preach: in 2013 and again
at the end of last year, soon before it fell into the hands of
the groups supporters, according to a rival militia official
based there. The official spoke on condition of anonymity
for fear for his life.
A video released last week showing the beheading of a
group of Egyptian Christians abducted from Sirte was produced by the IS media branch.
About 400 mostly Yemeni and Tunisian fighters are in
Sirte, according to Libyan Interior Minister Omar al-Sinki.
The militia official said Islamic State fighters have set up
headquarters in the citys convention complex, the
Ouagadougou Center, built by former dictator Moammar
Gadhafi as a symbol of his secular regimes aspirations to
be a pan-African leader. An Associated Press reporter who
briefly visited Sirte on Wednesday saw masked militants
deployed along the main road linking the convention center to downtown.
The close connection between the Libya branch and the
central leadership around Islamic State chief Abu Bakr alBaghdadi underscores the strategic importance of the North
African country to the group. Libya boasts oil resources something the extremists have exploited for funding in Iraq
and Syria. There are vast amounts of weapons, a legacy of
the turmoil since Gadhafis 2011 ouster. Its borders with
Egypt, Tunisia and Algeria are porous.

Pope Francis waves as he leads the weekly audience in Saint Peters Square at the Vatican.

Pope walks in Ash Wednesday

procession between churches
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ROME Pope Francis walked

in a solemn Ash Wednesday procession between churches on
Romes ancient Aventine Hill,
calling on people to humbly
remember their human limits as
faithful began their annual penitential Lenten period.
Francis, carrying his pastoral
staff, chanted prayers along with
other participants during the few
minutes walk down the street. He
wore a purple cloak, in keeping
with the somber Lenten mood as
Catholics spiritually prepare for

Easter, which falls on April 5 this

year.
The pope lowered his head so a
prelate could dab ashes on his head
during the ceremony inside St.
Sabinas Basilica, a church which
dates to the early 5th century. The
ashes symbolize mortality.
Then Francis, along with other
churchmen, sprinkled ashes on the
foreheads of other faithful,
motioning the sign of the cross
with their fingers as they did so.
The ritual of the ashes was a
reminder of the truth of human
existence, Francis said in his
homily. We are limited creatures,

sinners always in need of penitence and conversion.

Almsgiving, prayer and fasting
are traditional ways to mark Lent.
Francis encouraged church hierarchy, starting with himself, to be
humble enough to cry, so that
their prayer will be ever more
authentic and without hypocrisy.
Holy Week ceremonies, beginning with Palm Sunday on March
29, are expected to draw huge
crowds of tourists and pilgrims to
Rome and the Vatican. They
include the Good Friday evening
Way of the Cross torch-lit procession at the Colosseum.

ARTEMIVSK,
Ukraine

Government soldiers pulled out of a

ferociously contested railway hub
in eastern Ukraine Wednesday, ending a siege so intense the retreating
troops said they couldnt get water
or food amid relentless shelling by
Russian-backed separatists. At
least six soldiers were killed in the
withdrawal and more than 100
wounded.
President Petro Poroshenko
sought to portray the fall of
Debaltseve in a positive light,
saying the pullback was carried out
in a planned and organized manner, despite assertions by
exhausted and dirt-caked soldiers,
some of whom made their way out
on foot, that their forces suffered
heavy losses.
No matter the circumstances, the
retreat appeared to be an acceptance
by the Ukrainian leader of a humiliating defeat in exchange for a

dozens of soldiers dead and sent
tens of thousands of refugees flee-

chance at pushing a shaky truce

agreement forward and securing the
pullback of heavy weapons.
The loss of Debaltseve was a serious setback for the army. The town
is a strategic railroad junction that
lies on the most direct route
between the separatist easts two
major cities, Donetsk and Luhansk.
By taking control of it, rebels gain
significant transportation connections to boost their regions capacity to function as a unified entity.
Its strategic importance kept the
battle raging even after a cease-fire
between Ukrainian forces and the
Russia-backed rebels went into
effect Sunday and appeared to be
mostly holding elsewhere after
fighting that has killed more than
5,600 people since April.
Relinquishing the town could
remove the major impediment to a
lasting cease-fire and begin the
next step that was agreed to in a
peace deal last week the pullback
of heavy weapons by both sides to

NEW YORK The U.S. stock market edged mostly lower on

Wednesday, easing back from its latest all-time highs.
The markets barely budged following the midafternoon release of minutes from the Federal Reserves
January meeting. The transcript
showed that policymakers were less
likely to raise interest rates in June
than investors previously thought.
The decline follows two straight
days of record closing highs for the
Standard & Poors 500 index.
The market had really gathered
steam around a June tightening date,
the minutes seem to have walked that
back a bit, said David Lafferty, chief
market strategist at Natixis Global
Asset Management.
The Dow Jones industrial average
slipped 17.73 points, or 0.1 percent,
to 18,029.85. The S&P 500 eased 0.7
point, or 0.03 percent, to 2,099.68.
The index closed at an all-time high
of 2,100.34 on Tuesday.
The Nasdaq composite rose 7.10
points, or 0.1 percent, to 4,906.36.
Major stock indexes opened lower
early Wednesday. Energy stocks
declined as the price of oil fell amid
speculation that a recent rally in

crude was excessive.

The price of benchmark U.S. crude,
which had been rising last week, fell
$1.39 to $52.14 a barrel Wednesday.
The price of oil has jumped 16 percent since bottoming out at the end of
January after a seven-month slump.
Brent crude, a benchmark for international oils used by many U. S.
refineries, fell $2 to $60.53 a barrel.
Investors hammered Fossil Groups
shares after the retailer issued a disappointing fourth-quarter earnings
report and outlook. The stock fell the
most among companies in the S&P
500, shedding $15.63, or 15.7 percent, to $83.69.
Stocks continued to drift lower
ahead of the release of the meetings
from the Feds January meeting.
But the declines eased after 2 p.m.
Eastern time, when the minutes
appeared to ease any concerns that
the central bank would raise rates
anytime soon.
The minutes revealed that officials
were concerned about the impact on
financial markets of dropping the
word patient from their communications, when describing how long
they were willing to wait before raising rates.
Officials noted that wage growth
has remained weak even as the unemployment rate has declined. Inflation

remains below the Feds 2 percent target. The Feds benchmark interest
rate has been at a record low near zero
since December 2008.
Government bonds rallied after the
release of the Feds minutes. The
yield on the 10-year Treasury note,
which moves inversely to its price,
fell to 2.08 percent from 2.14 percent late Tuesday.
All told, four of the 10 sectors in
the S&P 500 ended lower. Energy
stocks slumped the most, declining
1. 5 percent. Utilities notched the
biggest gain at 2.4 percent.
The S&P 500 has bounced back
after a weak start to the year, as a
rebound in the price of oil has boosted energy stocks and returned the
index to all-time highs. Strong
reports on hiring and company earnings have also encouraged investors.
The gains have come, even as a
strengthening dollar has curbed overseas earnings for companies in the
index.
Most companies in the S&P 500
index have now reported their results
for the fourth quarter. Earnings are
forecast to rise 7.6 percent after all
the results are in, according to S&P
Capital IQ. That compares with
growth of 9.2 percent in the third
quarter and a rate of 4.9 percent in the
same period a year earlier.

For many in U.S., cash saved at gas pump is staying in pockets

By Christopher S. Rugaber
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON In recent months, the

stage seemed set for American consumers to
do what theyve traditionally done best:
Spend money and drive the economy.
The lowest gas prices in five years had
given people more spending money.
Employers added over 1 million jobs from
November through January, the best threemonth pace in 17 years. Businesses even
raised pay in December. Economists had
forecast that last weeks retail sales report
for January would show a healthy rise.
And yet to the surprise of analysts
consumers have held their wallets closely.
Even though Americans spent $6.7 bil-

lion less at gas stations in January than

they had two months earlier, the extra cash
didnt get spent anywhere else: Retail sales,
excluding gas, fell slightly from November
to January.
The unexpected pullback provided evidence that drivers had used their extra
money to further rebuild their savings and
reduce their debts a trend that began after
the financial crisis and recession.
In the long run, deeper savings and
shrunken debts benefit individual households and, eventually, even the economy
as a whole, because they supply fuel for a
sustained flow of future spending.
For now, though, the slowdown in consumer spending likely means the economy
will grow more slowly in the first quarter of

the year than economists had previously

envisioned. Their forecast now is for annualized growth of 2.5 percent from January
through March, down from an earlier estimate of about 3 percent.
In the meantime, many Americans are
finding more money in their pockets. In
January, the national average gas price fell
to $2.03 a gallon, according to AAA, the
lowest since 2009. Though the average has
since risen to $2.24, its still nearly $1.10
cheaper than 12 months ago. As a result,
the typical household will have $750 more
in hand this year, according to an estimate
by the governments Energy Information
Administration.
So why arent Americans spending more?
One key reason: The deep damage to

State home sales fall in January; prices still up

By Julie Watson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN DIEGO California home

sales were down last month, plunging
to the lowest level seen in January in
seven years in the San Francisco Bay
area, a research firm said Wednesday.
But prices are still up over the same
period last year.
An estimated 25,325 new and resale
houses and condos sold in California
marking a 30.6 percent decline
from the number sold the previous
month and a 2 percent drop from
January 2014 sales, according to data
released by Irvine-based CoreLogic
DataQuick.
The median price paid for a home in

California of $376,000 was 6.5 percent above what it was a year ago but
slightly less than it was in December.
Sales often dip around the holidays,
though the Bay area saw a bigger
decline in sales last month than it usually does.
A total of 4,439 new and resale houses and condos sold last month in the
nine-county Bay area a 40.5 percent
drop from sales in December and 5.5
percent from January 2014. Thats the
lowest seen in January since 3,586
homes sold in that same month in
2008, which is the trough for January
home sales in the firms statistics.
In Southern California, a total of
13,560 new and resale houses and condos sold in Los Angeles, Riverside,

San Diego, Ventura, San Bernardino

and Orange counties. Thats down by
29.4 percent from December and 6.3
percent from January 2014.
The firms data analyst, Andrew
LePage, said January numbers do not
reflect whats to come and traditionally fluctuate year-to-year.
January isnt really a bellwether
month when it comes to housing
trends. For that, well have to wait
until spring, LePage said. But the
latest data do indicate the market continues to struggle with challenges that
many in the industry hoped would be
resolved last year.
Whats needed is more job and
income growth coupled with low mortgage rates, he said.

DeSoto cab company taking on name of mobile app Flywheel

By Michael Liedtke
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO A San Francisco

taxi company is ditching its 82-yearold brand and renaming itself after a
smartphone app in the latest sign of
how mobile technology is changing the
way people get a ride.
The transformation dumps DeSoto
Cabs Depression-era identity in favor
of Flywheel, an app that helps tradition-

al taxis compete against increasingly

popular ride-hailing services such as
Uber and Lyft.
We think we are pioneering the way
taxi cabs need to be in the future,
DeSoto President Hansu Kim said in a
Wednesday interview. There is a perception that the taxi industry is backward so we need to recast ourselves as
being technologically innovative.
The newly minted Flywheel taxis will
be owned and operated independently

from the Flywheel app, which is made

by a 6-year-old startup in Redwood City.
As part of their makeover, DeSotos
220 taxis are being repainted from navy
blue, turquoise and white to red, with the
Flywheel name in white.
Flywheel isnt charging DeSoto for
adopting its name, according to
Flywheel CEO Rakesh Mathur. Instead,
Flywheel hopes to profit from the additional exposure that it gains from cabs
bearing its name.

Americans finances from the recession has

continued to leave households more frugal
than many economists had expected.
Americans have shrunk their debt loads but
still arent ready to spend as freely as they
did before.
Even more than five years after the end
of the Great Recession, the U.S. consumer
is still exhibiting a degree of caution,
Michael Feroli, an economist at JPMorgan
Chase, said in a note to clients.
Americans saved 4.9 percent of their
income in December, up from 4.3 percent in
November, according to government data.
Feroli estimates that the savings rate rose
again last month to 5.3 percent. That would
be the highest rate in nearly a year and a
half.

Companies in West Coast port
dispute make appeal to workers
LOS ANGELES Maritime companies are making their
case for a new labor contract directly to West Coast dockworkers, hoping the rank-and-file will pressure union negotiators to reach a deal that would let billions of dollars of
cargo now stuck at West Coast ports flow freely again.
Employers on Wednesday distributed letters at major ports
from Los Angeles to Washington state that detailed what
they called their last, best and final contract offer.
Meanwhile, negotiators for the maritime association of
employers and dockworkers union met with U.S. Labor
Secretary Thomas Perez in San Francisco.
The involvement of the nations top labor official underscored rising political and economic pressure to reach a

Samsung buying mobile-pay

company in bid to challenge Apple Pay
NEW YORK Samsung is buying mobile-payment startup LoopPay as the Korean phone maker steps up to challenge Apple and its payment system on iPhones.
The deal strengthens speculation that Samsung
Electronics Co. plans to include mobile-payment technology in its next major phone, which is expected to be
announced March 1 at the Mobile World Congress in
Barcelona.
Launched a year ago, LoopPay works by reproducing the
signals from a credit cards magnetic swipe as users tap a
LoopPay device next to a retailers card reader. That means
LoopPay should work with most retailers existing payment
terminals.

Burlingame rallies to knock off Terra Nova

By Nathan Mollat

Its how they [play] at practice.

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Wednesday night in the first round of the

Peninsula Athletic League tournament, the
Panthers stayed true to form, falling behind 80 to start the game and 20-7 with just over two
minutes left in the first quarter against host
Terra Nova.

For the last several weeks, the Burlingame

boys basketball team has had the unnerving
trend of getting off to slow starts. The opposition bolts out to a big early lead and the
Panthers have to spend the rest of the game to
get back in it.
Its been like that the last six or seven
games, said Burlingame coach Pete Harames.

But like they have more often than not this

season, the Panthers weathered the storm,
locked things down defensively and eventually pulled out a 66-55 win over the Tigers.

We knew it was a big game, said

Burlingame wing Justin Gutang. We really
wanted to win.
If not for the play of Gutang and a defensive
wrinkle Harames seldom employs, the
Panthers would probably have spent the rest
of the week practicing in preparation for the
Central Coast Section tournament.
Instead, the defending tournament champs
will play a semifinal game against nemesis
Mills against which they split a pair of reg-

ular-season games this season.

With Burlingame struggling offensively, it
was Gutang who stepped up carried the
Panthers at times during the game, as he finished with a game-high 26 points, scoring 13
points in each half.
My teammates came up to me and told me
to just go to the corner and they would set a
down screen. Just shoot the ball, Gutang
said. They got me open.

rough patch

Bears have surrendered just one goal.

He was huge, M-A head coach Jacob
Pickard said. Honestly, I think they would
have won this game if it wasnt for Wes.
Fischer had several diving saves throughout the match, but had back-to-back highlight-reel worthy plays in the 16th minute
that preserved a 1-0 lead for M-A.
With the Panthers (7-3-2, 8-5-4) trailing

ts been a rough couple weeks for the

Caada mens basketball as the Colts
head down the stretch. Things dont
get any easier as they face a perennial state
power and the looming playoffs.
Caada (6-4 Coast Conference, 20-5
overall), which was ranked as high as third
in the state earlier the
season, has tumbled
out of the top-20 in
the state and have fallen to 12th in Northern
California following a
pair of losses to a lastplace Las PositasLivermore team and a
heartbreaker to
Chabot-Hayward
both on the road.
Wednesday, they
hosted San Francisco
City College, ranked No. 10 in the state.
They close the season Friday against
Foothill before the playoffs begin
which coach Mike Reynoso believes his
team has a good chance at making.
Two straight losses and three in their
last four heading into Wednesday is not
the way the Colts wanted to be going heading into the postseason.
I could care less about rankings. At the
end of the year we want to be playing in the
last game, Reynoso said as his team prepared to take on San Francisco Wednesday
night. To be honest. Weve cost ourselves. Its not were getting outplayed, its
us making mistakes.
And playing in the Coast ConferenceNorth, making mistakes adds up to losses.
The Coast Conference-North is arguably
the toughest conference in Northern
California. San Francisco is a perennial
state-title contender. Chabot is No. 16.
Ohlone-Fremont was a regional power a
few years ago and Las Positas was finishing in the top of half of the league for several seasons before a recent downturn.
Playing in the Coast Conference-North
game in, game out is a grind.

The Bears cruised through the opening
round of the Peninsula Athletic League
girls basketball tournament Wednesday at
M-A with a 44-28 win over South City.
The Warriors marched out their sharpshooters to keep pace early. Seniors Reeza
Gaela and Mira Avila each nailed 3-pointers

to keep the score even at 9-9 with one

minute remaining in the opening quarter.
But then M-A responded big time.
With under a minute remaining in the quarter, M-A freshman Carly McLanahan came
off the bench to hit a 3-pointer, giving the
Bears a 12-9 lead after the opening eight
minutes. To start the second quarter, senior
guard Sarah Howell hit back-to-back treys
to extend the lead to 18-9.
The streak sparked an 11-0 run by the
Bears, who kept the Warriors at a distance

The Cougars, the presumptive PAL tournament favorites, survived a scare from the
Bears in the first round but survived and will

advance to the semifinals.

It was a struggle, said Half Moon Bay
coach Rich Forslund. They played very
good defense and our bigs combined for
eight points. Our two bigs usually combine
for 25 points.
Those bigs would be Case DuFrane and
Austin Hilton. DuFrane had only six and
Hilton just two. They did, however, help out
of the boards as Hilton finished 11 rebounds
and DuFrane added five.
Still, Forslund is looking for more from
those two.
When you get to this stage, your best
players have to perform when the spotlight
is the brightest, Forslund said.
He said the difference in the game came in
the second half when the Cougars decided to
speed things up and use their press. They
held M-A to just 14 points in the second
half.
Jake Salinero led the Cougars with a
game-high 16 points, hitting four 3-pointers in the process. Tommy Nuo added 13.
M-A was led by Blake Henrys 13 points.
Christian Fioretti and Ryan Cole each finished with nine.

Play Ball: Giants begin effort to win in odd year

By Bob Baum
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. The San Francisco

Giants roll in even years, winning the World
Series in 2010, 2012 and 2014.
Enough of that pattern, Giants manager
Bruce Bochy said.
We want to have a lot of fun in an odd
year, he said while San Francisco pitchers
and catchers reported for spring training on
Wednesday.
Pitchers and catchers also reported to the
Cincinnati Reds, Cleveland Indians and
Philadelphia Phillies. The rest of the major
league teams will get going over the next few
days, half of them in Arizona, half in Florida.
As usual, pitching should be San
Franciscos strength. Bochy said hes pretty
set on the five-man rotation that will open
the season.
He didnt name them. But by eliminating
the non-starters he did mention, the five
would be ace Madison Bumgarner, Matt Cain,
Tim Hudson, Jake Peavy and Tim Lincecum.
We havent put the order down exactly but

Bruce Bochy

weve got a pretty good

idea of what its going to
be, Bochy said.
He said Ryan Vogelsong
and Yusmeiro Petit would
be long-relievers and spot
starters. Vogelsong resigned
with
San
Francisco, a one-year, $4
million deal, knowing the
crowded starter situation

he was rejoining.
We talked a little bit about the situation
and he understands it, Bochy said. You cant
have enough depth in the rotation. Im glad
that Ryan decided to come back with us and I
think its going to be a workable situation.
They can help each other out, maybe give a
guy a start off.
Lincecum said he has rediscovered the
mechanics that once made him among the
best in the game.
My body just started to kind of click and
grasp onto the things I used to do naturally,
he said.
He isnt taking the starting role for granted.

I feel I have to re-earn my spot in the rotation, he said. I didnt really finish off the
year very well last year at all. That kind of left
a drive in me. I want to get that back and discover what went wrong.
Cain seems to be fully recovered from last
years surgeries on his right elbow and right
ankle.
Matt looks great, feels great, Bochy said.
I mean, really has got a great look about
him. I think hes excited that hes healthy
again and hell be back on the mound. Hes a
big part of the staff. We need him. We need
Matt to be who he is and stay healthy this
year.
Of the projected starting five, only the 39year-old Hudson wont be ready right off this
spring.
He is still recovering from surgery to
remove bone spurs from his right ankle.
Im probably a couple of weeks behind
where I normally am, Hudson said. I had my
surgery on the second of January so I wasnt
able to start throwing until the latter part of
January. So just from a throwing standpoint I
have a little ways to go before Im ready to

Sanchez eager for comeback from concussions

By Jose M. Romero
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. Hector

Sanchezs physical on Wednesday was
scheduled for 1:30 p.m. local time. But
maybe Sanchez, excited as he was to
be at spring training on the day the
world champion San Francisco Giants
began reporting, was simply eager to
receive a clean bill of health and get
back to being behind the plate.
The 25-year-old catcher, or someone
else, had scribbled Sanchezs name
into a pair of earlier time slots for the
physical. The routine checkup wasnt
expected to reveal anything more than
confirmation that Sanchez, coming
back from two concussions that cut
short his 2014 season, is back to 100
percent.
Two hundred percent, he said with
a laugh.
Sanchez had been the Giants backup

catcher until late

July, when he suffered his first concussion.
Then,
while on a rehab
assignment
at
Triple-A Fresno on
Aug. 16, he took a
hard foul tip off his
Hector Sanchez mask, which led to
a second concussion.
Sanchez didnt play again, looking
on with sadness, as he described it, as
his teammates worked their way to a
third World Series title in the past five
seasons.
I felt dizzy. I was tired but I couldnt
sleep, and because of that I was always
in a bad mood, he said of dealing with
the effects of the concussions. Id
never gone through anything like that
in my life. And theres no treatment,
only rest.

Sanchez acknowledged that he feared

he might never play again. But his
condition improved enough for him to
return to his native Venezuela for winter ball, where he was only allowed to
be a designated hitter in games.
That didnt stop Sanchez from getting in some catching time in workouts.
During winter ball I worked a little
bit with the pitching staff, blocking
(baseballs) and stuff. But I didnt want
to do too much, he said.
He and Giants manager Bruce Bochy
confirmed that Sanchez, who arrived
noticeably slimmer than last season,
will take his place behind the plate on
Thursday and catch the first spring
training bullpen sessions for Giants
pitchers.
Its great to see the commitment
hes made this winter to get himself

See GIANTS, Page 16

get in some games. My mindset is just to be

ready for the real games when the season
starts, whether that means me pitching in one
game or four games this spring.
The team lost two starters from last years
championship squad. Third baseman Pablo
Sandoval signed a five-year, $95 million free
agent contract with Boston. Mike Morse
signed a two-year, $16 million deal with
Miami.
But those who are returning are a strong
bunch, their manager said.
With this team, I think its fair to say
were pretty well set, Bochy said. ...Were
in a good place. Wed like to have a lot of fun
in an odd year. Wed like to change that up, so
well see if we can do that. I love the fact that
weve had the continuity here with this staff.
We have depth in the rotation. This is a team
with a lot of character.
Sitting in the Scottsdale Stadium dugout,
the manager reflected only briefly on last
years triumph.
We had a great year last year, he said. I
hope they took time to enjoy it and savor all
of that, but its time to go to work.

Gutang nailed four 3-pointers along the
way, but he was hardly one dimensional as he
had a number of nifty drives to the cup finishing one on a finger roll and another on a
scoop.
Hes our scorer, Harames said.
Gutang was one of three Burlingame players
to score in double figures. Center Bassel
Mufarreh added 15 and point guard Vinnie
Ferrari chipped in with 12 including a pair of
long 3-point bombs late in the second quarter
which enabled the Panthers to pull into a 3232 tie at halftime.
The way Terra Nova started the game, the
fact Burlingame managed to tie by halftime
was remarkable. The Tigers came out of the
starting blocks flying. They connected on
their first four shots as they bolted out to an 80.
Terra Nova hit on its first six shots of the
game and shot 9 for 13 in the opening eight
minutes.
Shooting guard Jared Milch was especially
deadly as he buried his first four attempts on
his way to a 10-point first quarter.
Milch finished with a team-high 23 points.
Point guard Gerald Colvin added 13.
Terra Nova led by as many as 13 points, 207, and were up 27-17 with 6:11 left when
Harames does something he hardly ever does:
he went to a zone defense.
Weve been practicing it a lot, Harames
said, who said he predominantly uses a man-

SPORTS
to-man defense and uses a zone for no more
than a few minutes if any during games.
In talking to his coaches during a timeout,
he decided to change things up defensively.
Might as well. We were down and they
(Terra Nova) was attacking the basket,
Harames said.
After giving up 22 points in the first quarter, the Panthers allowed only 10 in the second, 10 in the third and 13 in the fourth.
With the Panthers turning up the heat defensively, it allowed their offense to get
untracked. Terra Nova led 30-17 following a
Colvin 3-pointer with 4:50 left in the second
quarter but Burlingame responded by closing
the half on a 15-2 run to tie the game at 32.
The game stayed tight in the third quarter.
Colvin hit a jumper to put the Tigers up 34-32
as they opened the second half with a 6-2 run
to take a 38-34 lead. A Milch jumper put Terra
Nova up 42-40, but a 3-pointer from
Burlingames Tyler Garlitos with 14 seconds
left in the quarter gave Burlingame its first
lead of the game, 43-42. When Mac Caceres
followed a Gutang miss at the quarter horn, the
Panthers took a 45-42 lead into the fourth
quarter.
Burlingame opened the final eight minutes
on a 8-2 run, with Garlitos and Gutang each
draining a 3-pointer, to give the Panthers
their biggest lead to that point 53-44.
The Tigers came back with four straight free
throws to close to 53-48, but the Panthers
responded with a 7-02 run to open up a 62-50
lead following a pair of Mufarreh free throws.
Ferrari and Mufarreh hit their free throws over
the final minute to keep Terra Nova at bay and
move into the semifinals. Mills will host the
Panthers at 4:30 p.m. Friday.

Strong finishes are

just South Citys style
By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

The South City girls basketball team won

its last three games to grab the last spot in
the Peninsula Athletic League tournament
this season. Its another in a recurring comeback-kids theme in the Warriors ranks.
The South City football team lost its first
five games of the season before first-year
head coach Jay Oca saw an epic turnaround.
The Warriors won four of their last five and
went on to produce one of just two DivisionI players to sign out of the PAL this season
in defensive end Terrell Townsend.
The Warriors girls soccer team saw a similar resurgence, winning three of its last four
games. South City started PAL Ocean
Division play with a 1-5-1 league record
before winning three straight against El
Camino, Westmoor and Oceana. They
snapped the winning streak Tuesday with a
5-1 loss at Sequoia.

glad we pulled out a win so we can go on to
the next round.
South Citys top scorer was freshman
Valerie Avila with six points. The shooting
guard hit a pair of 3-pointers in the second
quarter. Her second one closed M-As lead to
23-15, but the eight-point differential was
as close as South City would get to a Bears
team that entered the tourney as the No. 1
seed out of the PAL South Division.
Theyre a good team and obviously
theyre No. 1 for a reason, South City senior Silvanna Padilla said. But were a fighting team and I dont think anybody even
expected us to do this. So, Im really proud
of my team.
South City has been relying heavily of
four freshman starters this season. But while
the post presence was evident in the way of
rebounds, the Warriors couldnt find a way to
score from the paint.
I think the big thing was we got no
inside points, Warriors head coach Paul

from Julissa Gonzalez and Dania Romero.

The two are neck-and-neck for the team lead
in goals this season and have combined for
25. Romero currently pacing the team
with 13 goals helped the Warriors earn
their first win in PAL Ocean play, scoring
their only goal in a 1-0 win at Westmoor
Jan. 22.
Olajua Pedemonte has been South Citys
saving grace this season though. The
fourth-year varsity starter rebounded from a
ACL injury that cost her her entire junior
season. It was a major loss for the Warriors
after Pedemonte was named the PAL Ocean
Division Defensive Player of the Year as a
sophomore in 2013.
Shes possibly a candidate for Defensive
Player of the Year this year, South City
head coach Danny Marcucci said.
While the Warriors wont qualify for the
Central Coast Section playoffs, their late
surge has them in position to claim third
place in the PAL Ocean if they defeat Mills
in Thursdays season finale.
Carion We could not score inside. We got
the shots we wanted. We just couldnt score.
A credit to them. They play very good
defense without fouling.
Padilla came off the bench to grab a gamehigh nine rebounds. Senior forward Reichel
Vaioli had seven boards. Hoyem and
McLanahan paced M-A with eight rebounds
apiece.
The loss brings an end to South Citys
three-game winning streak to storm into the
PAL tournament as the No. 4 seed out of the
PAL North. It also brings an end to the
Warriors season, as their sub-.500 overall
and league records make them ineligible to
apply for the Central Coast Section playoffs.
In my seven years of high school coaching, its probably my most rewarding season, Carion said. A real credit to the seniors. Its their senior year and obviously
they had high aspirations also. But they
really took in the freshmen, they really
helped the freshmen get better.
With the win, M-A advances to the PAL
tourney semifinals Friday to face Half Moon
Bay. The Cougars defeated Mills 52-41 in
their Wednesday opener. Friday's tip-off is
scheduled for 6 p.m.

by a goal, they set a furious tempo
early and gained possession with
Sharif Shibli taking a ball out of
the corner and driving the end line
with a tight shot around the post.
Fischer made a diving deflection
and junior defenseman Patrick
Quinn alertly cleared the ball.
But the Burlingame pressure
lapsed only momentarily as the
Panthers gathered from 30 yards
out and fired a shot that buzzed
through traffic. But as it looked as
though it might catch the outside
post, Fischer made a death-defying
save, sprinting full-on to get a
glove on he ball before slamming
full force into the post.
I just banged into it kind of
hard. I got my glove on the ball to
push around the side post, Fischer
said. And my momentum kept
me going into the post.
Fischers aggressive nature
stems from being a multi-sport
athlete. He played two years of
basketball as an underclassman
before opting not to play a winter
sport as a junior, which is why he
only started playing soccer at M-A
this season. In the spring, he
serves as a lacrosse defenseman,
which explains his temperament
as a soccer goalie.
In lacrosse, Im a defender. So,
its my job to go as hard as I can
for as long as I can as fast as I
can, Fischer said. So, as much as
possible, I will do what I can to
keep the ball out of the goal even
though my style of play is slightly more unorthodox. And Im used
to a lot of contact from lacrosse.
So, Im good at absorbing hits and
I know how to stay on my feet if
someone runs into me hard.
Entering the season, Fischer was
third on the goalkeeper depth chart
for M-A. He might not have even
had a roster spot, but the Bears
lost star keeper Alan Cruz, now a
junior, after last season as he was
one of four M-A players who opted
to play Juventus club soccer.
Fischer had previous AYSO
experience, but had never played
club soccer. But as M-As league
schedule approached, Fischer
seized his chance when he entered
in the second half of a Jan. 16
game against Sequoia. Two games

later, in M-As first matchup of the

season with Burlingame on Jan.
23, Fischer made his first varsity
start. He has been the Bears starting keeper ever since.
We havent gotten as many
shutouts as I would like normally,
Pickard said. And most of those
(non-shutouts) are due to other
goalkeepers, not him. So, hes
been doing a great job for us. I
think even more than the saves he
makes is the confidence he gives
our back line. They feel more comfortable making decisions and following through with those decisions as opposed to being hesitant, because theyve got Wes
behind them.
The front line seems to feed off
the seniors dynamic play as well.
Rodriguezs early goal set a wild
tone for the first half. The attempt
came off his second steal in the
opening minute, which he took
around the left side with a good
angle and great speed an fired a
clean cross-goal shot to put the
Bears up 1-0.
M-A's defense worked overtime
throughout
a
intensive
Burlingame attack for the remainder of the half. But in the second
half, M-A began to raise the intensity. And when Ortega checked
back into the game, it only took a
few minutes for him to score his
14th goal of the season.
The clinching goal came off a
50-50 ball that Juan Gastelum
Urquidez wrestled from 30 yards
out. He controlled it and found
Ortega off the left side, who outran
two Burlingame defenders, turned
the corner and fired a clean leftfooted goal.
I felt proud to clinch the
[clinching] goal to seal the deal,
Ortega said. We still have
Woodside, so I would love to score
against them and finish the season
strong and be the champions that
we are.
M-A closes its regular season
Friday at home against Woodside.
Fischer isnt the only player to
benefit from M-A players opting
to play Juventus club soccer. The
Bears lost four starters to Jeventus
and ultimately returned just five
players from last years team.
I was worried, because technically youd have to consider it a
rebuild year, Pickard said. For us
to be able to win league in a
rebuilding year is obviously a
pretty good feat.

THE DAILY JOURNAL

INDIANAPOLIS Browns coach Mike

Pettine said Wednesday he believes quarterback
Johnny Manziel is in a better place since entering a treatment program earlier this month.
Manziel, his family and the team have not said
why he sought help. Pettine did not provide any
additional details about the reasons, citing privacy concerns, and that there was no timetable for
his return.
But on the first big day of this weeks NFL
scouting combine, Pettine said he visited the
2012 Heisman Trophy winner last week.
Hes in a much better place now than when he
went in, Pettine said. Hes very determined to
come out of it in a much better way.
That might be the best possible news for
Cleveland, which has used 22 different starting
quarterbacks since the franchise returned to the
league in 1999.
Manziel came to last years combine with the
reputation of a big-time playmaker and a frequent
partier, a combination that scared away some
wary teams, but Cleveland chose Johnny
Football with the No. 22 overall pick.
Pettine said it was Manziels decision to seek
help and that he and the team fully support the
effort.

Every year, everyone says the Coast

Conference (North) is the best conference in
Nor Cal, Reynoso said. I think, this year,
its the strongest its ever been. Its strong top
to bottom. Las Positas is good and theyre in
last place.
Despite the recent stumbles, Reynoso and
the Colts are looking ahead. If they manage to
win their final two games, they can still claim
the conference championship and an automatic bid to the Nor Cal tournament.
They could also finish in third place.
If you put that scenario before us at the
beginning of the year youd have two home
games at the end of the season to win the conference championship wed take it,
Reynoso said. To still have our destiny in our
own hands (is great). We have a chance to win
the next two and win the conference outright.
Regardless of where the Colts finish in the
standings, Reynoso believes they have done
enough to warrant an invitation to the Nor Cal
tournament. Only conference champions earn
automatic bids to the playoffs, with the rest of
the field decided on strength of schedule.
And thats where playing in the Coast
Conference-North can be an advantage.

I think us, City (San Francisco) and Chabot

are all in. We could get five of our teams in,
which is just a testament to how tough our
conference is, Reynoso said. I really think
the top two teams in our conference could easily make it to the final four, easily.
***
Looks like the College of San Mateo softball team is gearing up for another run at a
state championship as the Bulldogs have
jumped out of the starting gate on a tear.
CSM (12-0), which has advanced to the
state final four the previous two seasons, is on
a 12-0 roll to open the 2015 campaign
which includes some very impressive victories.
Sunday, the second-seeded Bulldogs hosted
the states No. 3 squad, Mt. SAC, and the
states top team, Sierra. They handed each
their first losses of the season 2-0 and a
convincing 11-3, five-inning mercy-rule win,
respectively.
Sierra (5-1) is the defending state champion,
while Mt. SAC (6-1) was the runner-up in
2014.
Kayleen Smith gave the Bulldogs a quick 10 lead in the bottom of the first inning against
Mt. SAC, launching a booming home run.
Lauren Berriatua did the rest. The sophomore
out of Notre Dame-Belmont picked up her
state-leading sixth win of the season, scattering five hits.
The Bulldogs faced some adversity against

GIANTS

before being asked about his condition.

Working hard and eating healthy,
Sanchez said of his new look. That was
important for me because last year with the
concussions, I couldnt do anything.
But even just swinging the bat in Venezuela
helped him, and Sanchez, while acknowledging the dangerous nature of his position, said
he prefers it regardless.
Its the only way I know how to play
baseball, he said. I know its not safe.

But I love what I do.

Aside from getting back into a defensive
rhythm, Sanchez will have to compete for the
job he lost because of his injuries last season.
Andrew Susac, a rookie call-up who hit .273
with three home runs and 19 RBIs and made 20
regular-season starts at catcher in 2014, has
roughly half a major-league season and a postseason under his belt. He enters the spring as
the presumed incumbent to back up Buster
Posey.

Tiny houses help address homeless problem

By Carrie Antlfinger
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MADISON, Wis. While tiny houses

have been attractive for those wanting to
downsize or simplify their lives for financial or environmental reasons, theres
another population benefiting from the
small-dwelling movement: the homeless.
Theres a growing effort across the nation
from advocates and religious groups to
build these compact buildings because they
are cheaper than a traditional large-scale
shelter, help the recipients socially because
they are built in communal settings and are
environmentally friendly due to their size.
Youre out of the elements, youve got
your own bed, youve got your own place to
call your own, said Harold Hap Morgan,
who is without a permanent home in
Madison. It gives you a little bit of selfpride: This is my own house.
Hes in line for a 99-square-foot house
built through the nonprofit Occupy
Madison Build, or OM Build, run by former
organizers with the Occupy movement. The
group hopes to create a cluster of tiny houses like those in Olympia, Washington, and
Eugene and Portland, Oregon.
Many have been built with donated materials and volunteer labor, sometimes from
the people who will live in them. Most
require residents to behave appropriately,
avoid drugs and alcohol and help maintain
the properties.
Still, sometimes neighbors have not
been receptive. Linda Brown, who can see
the proposed site for Madisons tiny
houses from her living room window, said
she worries about noise and what her

Theres a growing effort across the nation to build compact buildings because they are cheaper than a traditional large-scale shelter, help
the recipients socially because they are built in communal settings and are environmentally friendly due to their size.
neighbors would be like.
There have been people who have always
been associated with people who are homeless that are unsavory types of people, she
said.
Organizer Brenda Konkel hopes to allay
neighbors concerns by the time the City
Council votes in May on the groups application to rezone the site of a former auto
body shop to place the houses there. Plans
include gardens, a chicken coop and possibly bee hives and showers and bathrooms in
the main building.
I think a lot of them we can work
through. I think there is some ways we can
be a real asset to the neighborhood, she
said.
The group has already built one house
thats occupied by a couple and parked on

the street. A volunteer moves it every 24 or

48 hours as required by city ordinances.
The house, which cost about $5,000, fits
a double bed with overhead storage, a small
table and a small room with a compostable
toilet. Theres no plumbing or electricity,
but the home is insulated and has a propane
heater to get the residents through the harsh
Wisconsin winters.
Organizers want to eventually add solar
panels.
Morgan, who has struggled with a spinal
cord surgery, alcohol addiction and unemployment, lives in a trailer provided by OM
Build. He hopes to work as a cook again.
My goal is to go back to that and get my
own place, but its really nice to have this
to fall back on, he said.
The tiny house effort in Eugene, Ore.,

sprung up after the city shut down an

Occupy encampment that turned into a tent
city for the homeless. Andrew Heben and
others worked with the city, which provided
them with land for the project.
Opportunity Village Eugene opened in
September with little resistance, said
Heben, 26, who is on the board of directors.
Most of the nine huts, which are 60 square
feet, and 21 bungalows, which are 64 square
feet and 80 square feet, are already built.
Thirty people are living in them now, and
he expects 40 to 45 residents ultimately.
The houses dont have electricity, water,
bathrooms, showers or kitchens, but separate shared buildings do.
Theyve done it all for less than
$100,000, which is about half the median

UC President Napolitano postpones proposed tuition increase

By Christine Armario
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LOS ANGELES University of

California President Janet Napolitano
announced Wednesday she is postponing a
proposed tuition increase as a good-faith
gesture stemming from her ongoing negotiations with Gov. Jerry Brown to resolve
their standoff over higher education funding.
Were having serious discussions both
with the governor and with the
Legislature, Napolitano said after delivering remarks at the University of
Southern California. Those are underway
so it seemed premature to go ahead and
jumpstart the tuition increase.
Napolitano and Brown have been working in private to consider proposals the
governor believes will allow the university to serve more students without increas-

The Broadway and Highway 101 interchange serves as one of the gateways to
Burlingame and provides the key connection to the Broadway commercial district
and the Bayfront hotels and businesses,
she said. Once completed, the new interchange will reduce traffic congestion,
enhance bicycle and pedestrian access and
safety, and make it easier to access these
important commercial districts.
Ribbon cutting on the project took place
last fall, kicking off construction on what

Were having serious discussions

both with the governor and with the Legislature.
... Those are underway so it seemed premature
to go ahead and jumpstart the tuition increase.
University of California President Janet Napolitano

Browns ideas for operating the university within the proposed budget include
increasing the number of hours faculty
spend teaching, moving classes online,
encouraging students to finish their
degrees in four years or less and make it
easier for community college graduates to
transfer to UC campuses.
In her remarks Wednesday, Napolitano
reiterated a point she has consistently
raised: That it has become harder to preserve and enhance the universitys academic excellence without sufficient state
investment.
Assembly Speaker and Board of Regents
member Toni Atkins, D-San Diego, said
she believed the ongoing budget review
would accomplish the universitys goals.
I am sure we will be able to identify savings, as well as increased state funding,
that will help ensure UC remains a worldclass treasure, she said.

ing tuition or receiving a significant

budget hike.
At Napolitanos urging, the Board of
Regents approved raising tuition to up to
5 percent each of the next five years in
November unless the state gave the university more money. The governors proposed spending plan increased the UC systems budget by nearly $120 million on
condition that tuition not be raised. UC
officials said that was not enough.
Napolitano said she was postponing the
tuition increase as both a gesture opti-

mistic about the ongoing negotiations

and how they will be bear fruit and a practical measure that will allow student to
enroll in summer classes with less uncertainty.
The tuition hike was slated to begin in
the summer quarter. Tuition could still be
raised in the fall, though Napolitano said
she hoped that could be avoided.
It is our conviction all parties engaged
in these negotiations want tuition to be as
low as possible and as predictable as possible, she said.

is the oldest intersection along the San

Mateo County Peninsula, built in 1947.
The new overpass is slated to expand from
the current four lanes to seven. It will be
realigned approximately 170 feet north of
the existing structure.
Broadway will be adjusted to extend
across Highway 101 from the intersection
with Rollins Road on to the intersection of
Bayshore Highway and Airport Boulevard.
The northern stretch of Airport Boulevard
will be moved about 100 feet north, to connect with the new overpass. And existing on
and off ramps from Highway 101 will be
replaced.
The purpose of this project is to improve
traffic movements and access around the
interchange, accommodate future traffic
increases at adjacent intersections, improve

operations at the southbound [Highway]

101 ramps, and increase bicyclist and
pedestrian access, according to a Caltrans
report.
A majority of the money to fund the project came from Measure A, the countys halfcent sales tax for transportation, which will
pay about $51 million toward the construction. Another $23 million came courtesy of
the state, Burlingame contributed about $5
million and more than $3 million was contributed by the federal government.
Workers rebuilt the overpass in 1971, and
seismically retrofitted it in the 1980s, but
many local residents felt navigating the
overpass can be awkward.
There will be new metering installed at
the off ramps feeding onto Highway 101, as
part of the project.

Nearly 23,000 vehicles cross Broadway

every day and nearly 225,000 are on the
interchange daily. The total length of the
project is about three-quarters of a mile
long.
Caltrans spokeswoman Gidget Navarro
said in an email the project is roughly 15
percent completed, and that there have been
no major delays since work began.
The project is slated to be completed in
2017, as long as weather permits, said
Navarro.
During construction, drivers can expect
minor delays and should consider taking
alternate routes, according to the report.

with citizen driven solutions, Heben said.

Ministries in Texas and New York also are
developing communities with clusters of
small houses.
Mobile Loaves and Fishes plans 135
small homes and 100 recreational vehicles
on 27 acres near Austin, Texas.
The Christian ministry that started 15
years ago bringing food and clothing to the
homeless hopes to raise $7 million to build
the homes, streets, utilities, sewers, a farming operation, medical facility and sanctuary, President and CEO Alan Graham said.

Residents would pay rent that ranges from

$90 a month for a 150-square-foot home to
$375 for 400 square feet.
The goal is to reach everybody where
they are economically, Graham said.
He expects a staff of 15 will run the village, with residents having the option to
get paid to help with upkeep.
Community Faith Partnership near
Ithaca, New York, has built six of up to 18
planned 320-square-foot houses as transitional living for homeless men, said Jim
Crawford, the groups executive director.

The men will pay rent on a sliding scale

that looks at their situation and whether
they receive government aid.
The heart of the operation will be a community center where people who arent
social can learn to relate to others in a safe
environment, Crawford said.
We are bringing people into tangible
housing but we are bringing them also into
much less tangible human framework of
social relations and that is the more difficult
work, he said. That is the more sophisticated work.

Papyrus relative looks

good, and makes paper
By Lee Reich
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Zoe, the young daughter of a friend of mine, finds my

houseplants more interesting than beautiful. And I
agree that some my climbing onion, rabbits
foot fern and staghorn fern, for example
are at least as interesting-looking as
they are pretty.
Zoe really perked up when she learned that a
plant she asked about was papyrus.
School kids know that papyrus (Cyperus papyrus) was
used to make paper in ancient Egypt. And here the plant
was, over 5,000 years later, growing at one of my sunny
windows in winter.

WATER WORLD
Well, as I admitted to Zoe, my plant is
not exactly papyrus, but a close relative, a mere species removed.
Sometimes called umbrella
plant (Cyperus alternifolius)
for its tall stalks topped with
leaves that splay out, its a dead
ringer for papyrus. The most
obvious differences
are that papyrus
stalks
are
topped
by
tufts of finer
leaves, and
papyrus is
much more
robust than
umb rel l a
p l a n t .
Growing to 15 feet, true
papyrus would strain against
most ceilings.
Like papyrus, umbrella plant grows in water,
which is one reason its so popular as a houseplant.
(Its also pretty.) Merely set the pot in a basin of
water and keep it full. Theres no fear of ever overwatering; just make sure the plants always sitting in water.
Umbrella plants look gracefully at home near or in
ponds or streams where winter temperatures hardly drop
below freezing. The plant will re-sprout if frost nips the
foliage and flower stalk back to the ground. I move my
potted plant outdoors each summer.

MORE PLANTS
Of course, the big question is: Can you make paper
from umbrella plant?
The plant is so closely related and similar to
papyrus that there is no reason why you couldnt. You
do need a good supply of stems, which is no problem

given the ease with which umbrella plant (and papyrus)

propagates. Clumps of plants can be divided and replanted
something papyrus frequently does by itself in nature,
the clumps floating away to find a new home.
A more interesting and fecund manner of making a new
plant is to cut off the top of a stalk, leaving the last few
inches intact. Snug the leaves at the top of
the cut stalk back around it with a rubber band
and then stick the top upside down into some wet
soil. New roots and shoots develop from
beneath the leaves. Roots and shoots
will develop even if the upsidedown top is immersed in a
glass of water, in which case
you can be entertained watching the
roots and shoots grow.
Plants reproduce this way in the wild as the
top-heavy stalks eventually bow
down into water.

HOME-GROWN PAPER
The Egyptians never
recorded their method for
making papyrus into
paper, but the
Romans learned
the process from
them, and Pliny
the Elder wrote
about it in the
first century B.C. So put
on your toga and sandals
(the latter were also once made
from papyrus) and cut down a few umbrella
plant stalks for home-made paper.
The Romans, and presumably the
Egyptians, began by peeling off the outer,
green layer to reveal the inner pith, which
they then cut into strips. Papyrus stalks are a
few inches thick, but my umbrella plants
stalks are only an eighth to a quarter of an
inch, so each one makes only a couple of
strips.
After soaking a couple of days or so in water,
the strips turn clear, and are then ready to be
fished out of the water and laid side by side,
slightly overlapping, on a piece of cloth.
Another layer laid perpendicular to and on top of
that first layer completes a sheet. The cloth and
paper sandwiches are placed between something
absorbent, such as newspaper or cardboard, and
the whole stack of them is then sandwiched between wood and pressed.
In Egyptian sunlight, you could figure
on the paper being dry and ready after
about three weeks. Cut it to size to fit your
printer.

Energy Star models can cost roughly $600 more than

comparable standard models.

Dryers: Homes energy

guzzlers just got greener
By Katherine Roth
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

For the first time in six years, Energy Star certification, a

standard seal of approval for energy efficiency, has been
expanded to include another major household appliance.
Clothes dryers, perhaps the last of the major household
appliances to be included in the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agencys program, became available in 45
Energy Star models starting Presidents Day weekend,
according to the EPA. Dryers are one of the most common
household appliances and the biggest energy users, said
EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy.
While washing machines have become 70 percent more
energy-efficient since 1990, dryers used by an estimated
80 percent of American households have continued to use
a high amount of energy, the agency says.
The Energy Star program is designed to help consumers
help save money and protect the environment by curbing
energy consumption.
Refrigerators were the dominant energy consumer in
1981. Now dryers are the last frontier in the home for radical
energy conservation, said Charles Hall, senior manager of
product development for Whirlpool.
Energy Star-certified dryers include gas, electric and compact models. Manufacturers offering them include LG,
Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag and Safemate.
All of the energy-efficient models include moisture sensors to ensure that the dryer does not continue running after
the clothes are dry, which reduces energy consumption by
around 20 percent, the EPA says.
In addition, two of the Energy Star-approved models
LGs EcoHybrid Heat Pump Dryer (model DLHX4072) and
Whirlpools HybridCare Heat Pump Dryer (model
WED99HED) also include innovative heat pump technology, which reduces energy consumption by around 40
percent more than that, the EPA and manufacturers say.
Heat-pump dryers combine conventional vented drying
with heat-pump technology, which recycles heat. The technology, long common in much of Europe, is similar to that
used in air conditioners and dehumidifiers.
Although Energy Star models can cost roughly $600 more
than comparable standard models, Hall said the higher cost
is more than balanced out by energy savings and up to $600
rebates offered by government and utility incentive programs.

Fashion Police host Griffin gets Oscars red carpet ready

By Frazier Moore
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK Kathy Griffin likes to

joke (or is she serious?) that, one year
on her tax return, she put her profession as Anonymous. Such is her
multi-hyphenate stature: a standup
comic, sitcom star, reality-show queen,
periodic D-Lister and, now, host of
Fashion Police, E! networks rollicking red-carpet rip.
Griffin has retrieved the couture-critique mantel from Joan Rivers, who
presided riotously in cahoots with her
Joan Rangers until her death last
summer.
She obviously left very big shoes,
said Griffin. But we agree that its

FEE
Continued from page 1
Since the state dissolved all redevelopment agencies in 2011, the city lost
its primary way to fund affordable
housing developments, ODell wrote
in a report to the commission.
A countywide study is currently
underway to study the feasibility of
establishing an Affordable Housing
Impact Fee.
Although rent control is not being
considered as part of the benefits program, most of the public that spoke at
Tuesdays Planning Commission said
the city must do something about making the city more affordable for its
low-wage workers.
The foundation of a thriving community is jobs, affordable housing and
mobility. San Mateo is the least
affordable county in the United
States, said Michelle Beasley with
the nonprofit Greenbelt Alliance.

HIGHWAY
Continued from page 1
all or our lives, we need to start this
process ASAP, Mullin wrote in a
statement.
Silicon Valley business leaders have
told Mullins office that traffic congestion has impacted productivity at their
companies, Mullins Chief of Staff
Hugh Bower said Wednesday.
The office intends to work with the
Metropolitan
Transportation
Commission and Association of Bay
Area Governments to see how the state
can help solve the problem, Bower
said.
Mullin, Bower said, will lead the
charge in putting together a working
group to figure out what the options

essential to comedy
to be fearless and
not be afraid to
make enemies
certainly,
in
Hollywood! Cmon,
were not talking
about heads of state
here.
As she spoke
Kathy Griffin
Friday, she was not
in Hollywood but Manhattan, fresh
from taping a Fashion Police special
taking stock of New York Fashion
Week. The show originated from the
huge tent at Lincoln Center, where
Griffin joined panelists Brad Goreski,
Kelly Osbourne and Giuliana Rancic to
pronounce unflinching verdicts on out-

fits worn by such A-listers as Rihanna

(Oshkosh Bgosh and bedazzled) and
Natalie Dormer (these gloves look
like a bad case of varicose veins).
Heres a condensed version of the
conversation that followed:
The Associated Press: Are you looking forward to your Academy Awards
Fashion Police special? (It airs
Monday at 9 p.m. EST.)
Kathy Griffin: The Oscars are gonna
be great! Other award shows, everybodys just trying to out-crazy each
other with their fashions. But for the
Oscars, these men and women are trying to win an award they care about,
while at the same time they know
theyre being judged even more harshly
on what they wear.

Diana Reddy, with Redwood City

Residents for Housing Security, told
the commission that child care workers are critical to the community and
must be able to afford to live in the
city as well as those who provide inhome supportive services for the elderly or individuals with disabilities.
Reddy led a march in downtown
Redwood City Saturday where about
200 people highlighted the impacts
higher rents are having on the city.
Tom Leinberger participated in the
March and noted Tuesday that 47 percent of Redwood City residents are
renters.
Rents have gone up 40 percent in
the past 18 months but no one is getting a 40 percent raise, Leinberger
said.
Colt Reimer said workers at small
businesses deserve to live near their
jobs.
Two or three families living in one
little apartment is inhumane and not
sustainable, Reimer said Tuesday
night about what families endure to

live in the city.

The citys planning department has
conducted a couple of workshops about
community benefits and residents have
overwhelmingly said affordable housing tops the list, ODell said at the
meeting.
Funding public art ranked second,
establishing a prevailing wage ranked
fourth and parks ranked seventh on the
top 10 priority list, ODell said.
The commission also discussed how
to incentivize developers to hire locally by establishing a prevailing wage
for construction jobs.
The city currently has no concrete
requirements on what developers
should pay those who work in the
trades, however.
The City Council will consider the
framework for the Community
Benefits program either at its March 9
or March 23 meetings.

are to solve the problem.

It will start with more listening
than talking, Bower said.
Strategies could include adding carpool lanes in San Mateo County, he
said.
The
State
Department
of
Transportation recently completed a
multi-year project to add metering
lights at off-ramps to Highway 101
and added auxiliary lanes from
Millbrae south to Third Avenue in San
Mateo, a $150 million project that
broke ground in 2007.
It was a project in the works more
than 10 years ago by Caltrans when it
warned that traffic was only going to
get worse in the area as more housing
and office developments pop up in the
corridor such as Bay Meadows in San
Mateo and University Park in East
Palo Alto.

That poor freeway is as big as it can

get, Jack Gaines, Caltrans public
affairs officer, told the Daily Journal
about 101 all the way back in July
2004. You could build a stacked freeway. But who wants that?
Gaines warned more than a decade
ago that Peninsula drivers should brace
themselves for Los Angeles-type traffic and cautioned motorists to expect
Interstate 280 to become more congested.
[Interstate] 280 will eventually
become the next major artery and folks
in Hillsborough will have to get used
to the traffic and noise. Its the next
101, Gaines said.
AB 378, however, makes no mention of Interstate 280.
