The decision made at the college boards

meeting in Sacramento is the continuation

bachelors degrees for students across the

We are excited that the community college is going to be able to offer this
opportunity, said Skyline President

Regina Stanback Stroud.

The legislation permits community colleges to admit students into degree programs beginning in 2017, but Stroud anticipates that Skyline may be prepared a year
sooner to admit its inaugural class of 25 students in pursuit of a degree. In the subse-

Hundreds dead, injured

At least three birds affected by the mysterious substance attributed to killing more
than 100 birds throughout the Bay were
found in Foster City prompting rescue officials to search the Peninsula coastline for
more distressed birds.
The California Department of Fish and
Wildlife began testing the viscous goo and
conducting necropsies Tuesday in hopes of
identifying the deadly material and its
source.
While the unidentified substance was initially reported in the East Bay beginning
Friday, three birds were found in Foster City
and brought to the Peninsula Humane
Society Sunday.
One of the birds ultimately had to be euthanized, another was transferred to the
International Bird Rescue Center in
Fairfield and a third is still under the care of
the PHS, said PHS spokesman Scott
Delucchi.
The surf scoter and horned grebe handled
by the PHS are consistent with the types of
birds being found elsewhere, as well as buffleheads. All are roughly the size of a duck.
Three others were reportedly spotted but

THE FACTS: By many measures, the economy is still

That has left the income of the typical household below

Heavy construction continues near

Highway 101 in Burlingame as
builders work toward completing the
Broadway Tennis Center in time for the
grand opening, which is expected in

Reverse Mortgage Financial Assessment to begin March 2015

The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has issued a nancial assessment for
reverse mortgage borrowers that will take effect
March 2, 2015
HUD writes in explaining the purpose of nancial
assessment, The mortgagee must evaluate the
mortgagors willingness and capacity to timely meet
his or her nancial obligations and to comply with the
mortgage requirements. The mortgage requirements
include paying property taxes, homeowners insurance
and keeping up home maintenance.
HUD states, In conducting this nancial
assessment, mortgagees must take into consideration that some mortgagors seek a HECM due
to nancial difculties, which may be reected
in the mortgagors credit report and/or property
charge payment history. The mortgagee must also
consider to what extent the proceeds of the HECM

could provide a solution to any such nancial difculties. For borrowers who do not demonstrate
their willingness to meet their loan obligations, life
expectancy set-asides will be required.
The mortgagee letter also species documents that
must be collected and submitted to all borrowers. The
documentation has been updated to include Financial
Assessment Documentation including, credit history,
income verication, asset verication, property charge
verication, residual income analysis, documentation
of extenuating circumstances or compensating factors
and calculations for life expectancy and residual
income shortfall set-asides.
If you have a question about qualifying for a reverse
mortgage today, or how the nancial assessment will
impact your situation, contact us today.

A reverse mortgage is a loan that enable

homeowners 62 or older to borrow against the
equity in their home without having to give up
title, or take on a monthly mortgage payment.
The money received can be used for any purpose.
The loan amount depends on the borrowers age,
current interest rates, and the value of the home.
Borrower must maintain property as primary
residence and remain current on property taxes
and homeowners insurance. A reverse mortgage
does not have to be repaid until the borrower
sells or moves out of the home permanently,
and the repayment amount cannot exceed the
value of the home. After the loan is repaid any
remaining equity is distributed to the borrower or
the borrowers estate.

State lawmakers pursue

right-to-die legislation
By Fenit Nirappil
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SACRAMENTO California lawmakers

are pursuing right-to-die legislation after
the highly publicized death of a young
woman with brain cancer who moved to
Oregon to legally end her life.
The proposal would allow doctors to prescribe life-ending medication nearly a
decade after similar legislation failed.
Terminally ill patients can legally take their
lives in five states, including Oregon.
Advocates for aid in dying are ramping up
their efforts across the U.S. using the story
of Brittany Maynard, a 29-year-old San
Francisco Bay Area woman who moved with
family to Oregon and ended her life in
November. She argued in online videos and
national media appearances that she should
have had the right to die in California.
Why should someone who willingly
wants to avail themselves of this option
have to go to another state? It just adds to
the suffering and challenge at an already difficult time, Democratic state Sen. Bill
Monning said Tuesday.
Opponents say some patients may feel
pressured to end their lives if doctors are
allowed to prescribe fatal medication.
Religious groups have condemned aid-indying legislation as against Gods will.
Monning is among three Democratic lawmakers who plan to appear with Maynards
family to promote right-to-die legislation
Wednesday. It would be limited to mentally
competent patients with less than six
months to live and requires they take deadly
medication themselves without help from a
doctor.
His bill is modeled off of Oregons law,
which was approved by voters in 1994.
Since then, 752 people ended their lives
through the law, according to Oregon state
statistics.

Washington voters also approved rightto-die legislation, while court decisions in

New Mexico and Montana have essentially
legalized aid in dying.
Vermonts Legislature became the first
group of lawmakers to allow terminally ill
patients to end their lives in 2013, but other
statehouses have been hesitant.
New
Jersey,
Massachusetts
and
Connecticut have rejected similar legislative proposals recently. Right-to-die legislation failed in the California in 2007 over
objections from Catholic and medical
groups.
Molly Weedn, a spokeswoman for the
California Medical Association, says her
group has longstanding opposition to
physician assisted suicide because it is fundamentally incompatible with the physicians role as a healer.
The group is waiting to review the new
bill before taking a position.
Compassion & Choices, which advocates
for right-to-die laws, hopes publicity
around Maynards story will reverse the
string of legislative defeats. It is also considering taking the issue before California
voters in 2016.
Legislators now understand this is a
social justice issue that has huge popular
support, and they want to be part of it, said
Barbara Coombs Lee, president of
Compassion & Choices.
Since Maynards story became widely
known, elected officials in Washington,
D.C., Wyoming and Pennsylvania have also
proposed new end-of-life laws. Lawmakers
in other states including New York and
Colorado are also planning legislation.
Tim Rosales, a spokesman for a
California coalition opposing right-to-die
bills, says the focus on Maynard has been a
well-orchestrated campaign that distracts
from the broader consequences of allowing
terminally ill patients to kill themselves.

Bridge protesters issued citations

By Bill Silverfarb
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

The 68 people arrested Monday

evening after shutting down the San
Mateo-Hayward Bridge were given
citations for being a public nuisance
and for blocking a public thoroughfare, according to the San Mateo
County District Attorneys Office.
Those cited could also face harsher
penalties for the number of collisions
and injuries the protest caused, according to the District Attorneys Office.
About 100 people, many of them
Stanford students, blocked eastbound
traffic just before 5 p.m. Monday in
what was described as a Reclaim
MLK rally to highlight injustices

black people face in the country.

Tips to the California Highway
Patrol before the rally prompted a
quick response as officers issued an
order to disperse just minutes after protesters were dropped off by vehicles
near the high-rise, according to the
CHP.
The arrested were taken to the CHPs
Redwood City headquarters where they
were issued citations before being
released. The protesters who did not
follow instructions to clear the lanes
were arrested peacefully, according to
the CHP.
Those issued citations were given
court appearance dates in late February
or March, District Attorney Steve
Wagstaffe said.

The charges are misdemeanors

although the CHP has yet to submit the
cases to the District Attorneys Office,
Wagstaffe said.
CHP has five to six weeks to get us
all the reports and then we will review
and make our charging decision,
Wagstaffe said.
Silicon Shutdown organizers said
the rally was to support demands to
demilitarize local law enforcement
agencies in wake of national protests
related to the police shooting of a
black man by a white police officer in
Ferguson, Missouri last year.
Eastbound traffic was blocked for
about an hour and the protest led to at
least two vehicle accidents that also
snarled traffic, according to the CHP.

LOS ANGELES A review of Californias

new school funding formula released Tuesday
found its goals and performance metrics are
so complex that none of the districts studied
met all the requirements.
The report by the nonpartisan Legislative
Analysts Office recommended that districts
be permitted to focus on developing an
action plan for a set of high-priority areas
rather than all eight targets specified by the
state.
The study also recommends the state more
closely monitor district plans for lowincome and English-learner students. Some
districts provided only limited information
on what funding they will provide those student groups, the review found.
We do think it has the potential to be a
good strategic plan, Edgar Cabral, an
author of the study, said of the accountability plans. But we do think as currently estab-

lished its an ambitious set of requirements

and is maybe preventing districts from
focusing on the most key areas of need.
The local control funding formula is
designed to steer additional money to
schools with the most low-income students,
foster youth or those with limited English
proficiency.
As part of the new law, districts are required
to develop and annually update an action
plan centered around priority areas such as
student achievement and 24 metrics set by
the state. The plans include everything from
performance on standardized tests to student
suspension rates and parent involvement.
Taken together, these requirements are a
daunting undertaking for districts to accomplish and accomplish well, the report
states.
The study looked at 39 districts and found
some are spending time on seemingly lowpriority issues because of the requirements.
It also concluded that districts often failed to
set goals for specific student subgroups.

Shiite rebels shell

Yemen presidents
home, take palace
By Ahmed Al-Haj
and Maggie Michael
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SANAA, Yemen Shiite rebels

shelled the residence of Yemens
leader and swept into the nearby
presidential palace Tuesday in
what a top army commander said
was an unfolding coup.
President Abed Rabbo Mansour
Hadi an important U.S. ally in
the fight against the highly lethal
Yemeni branch of al-Qaida that
claimed responsibility for the
newspaper-office attack in Paris
was unharmed, authorities said.
But his grip on power appeared
increasingly precarious.
The Shiite rebels, known as
Houthis, took over the capital

Sanaa in September as part of a

long power struggle with Hadi and
effectively govern several other
cities as well.
It was unclear whether they
intend to seize power altogether or
allow the internationally backed
president to remain in office.
In a lengthy speech aired by the
groups TV network, rebel leader
Abdel-Malek al-Houthi said that
all options are open and that the
escalation has no ceiling if Hadi
does not speed up implementation
of a U.N.-brokered peace deal.
That deal would grant the
Houthis greater power over a commission that has been assigned to
draft a new constitution and outline a new federal system. Critics
of the Houthis say they are using

the U.N. deal as a pretext to seize
more power.
In Washington, U.S. officials
said the rebel violence is undermining American military and
intelligence operations against
the al-Qaida branch, which
claimed to have carried out the
attack on the satirical weekly
Charlie Hebdo earlier this month

that left 12 people dead in Paris.

Washington has long viewed
the Yemeni branch, known as AlQaida in the Arabian Peninsula, as
the global terror networks most
dangerous affiliate.
On Tuesday, after an emergency
meeting, the U. N. Security
Council called for a lasting ceasefire and condemned the violence.

Japan weighs ransom in Islamic State threat to kill hostages

By Jon Gambrell
and Mari Yamaguchi
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CAIRO The Islamic State

group threatened to kill two
Japanese hostages within 72
hours, demanding a $200 million
ransom in a video posted online
Tuesday that showed a knife-brandishing masked militant standing
over the two kneeling captives.
Prime Minister Shinzo Abe,
who was traveling in the Middle
East, vowed to save the men. But

with his military only operating

in a self-defense capacity at home,
Abe faces a hard choice: openly
pay the extremists or ask an ally
like the United States to attempt a
risky rescue inside Syria.
Tuesdays video, released via
militant websites associated with
the Islamic State group, mirrored
other hostage threats the extremists have made. In it, the captives,
47-year-old Kenji Goto and 42year-old Haruna Yukawa, were
shown in orange jumpsuits with a
rocky hill in the background, a

black-clad militant standing

between them. The scene resembles others featuring five
hostages previously beheaded by
the Islamic State group, which
controls a third of Iraq and Syria.
Speaking in English with a
British accent, the militant
demanded $200 million for the
mens release and appeared to link
the ransom to a pledge Abe made
Saturday of nonmilitary aid to
help the government of Iraq and to
assist Syrian refugees who have
fled the Islamic States brutality.

To the prime minister of Japan

... you willingly have volunteered
to take part in this crusade, said
the masked man, who looked and
sounded like the militant shown in
other filmed beheadings.
And to the Japanese public:
Just as your government has made
the foolish decision to pay $200
million to fight the Islamic State,
you now have 72 hours to pressure
your government in making a wise
decision, by paying the $200 million to save the lives of your citizens, he said.

THE DAILY JOURNAL

Wednesday Jan. 21, 2015

Expanding educational opportunities at home Fashion conspiracy?

n a nod to the idea that education training itself is more

important than where it is
received, the California Community
Colleges Chancellors Ofce
approved a list of 15 community colleges in the state that will now be
allowed to grant four-year degrees.
On that list is San Brunos Skyline
College, which will offer a four-year
degree in respiratory therapy program
starting as soon as 2016 school year.
This is a big victory for the San
Mateo County Community College
District, whose leaders lobbied state
legislators for such an allowance and
to be included on the list of those
community colleges across the state
vying for the selection. The San
Mateo County Community College
District already offers some four-year
degree programs in nursing through a
partnership with the California State
University System. While the district
would have liked to also add a radiological technology degree at another
one of its community colleges, districts could only choose one.
There has been a lot of attention on
community colleges recently, with

Editorial
President Obama ofcially unveiling
his proposal for free tuition during
Tuesday nights State of the Union
address. There will be a need for a lot
of heavy lifting for that idea to get off
the ground and little evidence that
Congress will provide much muscle.
However, the proposal does point out
the benet of such colleges in our
higher education ecosystem. In
California, the legislation that
allowed for community colleges to
grant four-year degrees states simply
that the state will need 1 million more
bachelors degrees to remain economically viable in the coming decades.
While this legislation created a
pilot program for community colleges to offer four-year degrees, it will
likely provide a template for success
for other programs based on local
needs and ability. It might be just a
matter of time for the our local community college district to get that
radiological technology degree, or
perhaps another degree that would

best meet the communitys needs for

both students and employers.
San Mateo County is surrounded by
high-quality institutions of higher
learning, yet does not have a fouryear public university. Students who
live in this county and interested in
such educational offerings must travel
to either San Francisco, Santa Clara
or Alameda counties. By opening the
door for higher educational offerings
here in this county, it allows new
opportunity for local students while
also providing a less expensive alternative to a typical four-year university. The new state policy also opens
the door to new degree programs to
meet the growing needs of not only
San Mateo County, but the entire
state of California.
It also goes to show that, in todays
world, it does not necessarily matter
where you go for your education but
rather getting the training necessary
to advance in emerging elds that
change quickly. Expanding the states
degree programs will keep California
competitive and take advantage of its
72 community college districts and
all they have to offer.

Letters to the editor

Station Park Green
Editor,
The project applicant, consultant
team, city staff and public are to be
congratulated for their endurance in
sticking with this mixed-use transitoriented development project since
2010 (Station Park Green plan
heads to council in the Jan. 15 edition of the Daily Journal). The proposed project has continued to
evolve and improve over the course
of the 16 public meetings. The
vision and goals of Station Park
Green are admirable.
At the Jan. 13 Planning
Commission public hearing, I voted
against the motion to recommend
approval to the City Council for the
following reasons:
The residential unit mix is 79 percent one- and two-bedroom units,
while three-bedroom units comprise
only 1 percent of the 599 units. In
San Mateo, there is a critical shortage of larger, three-bedroom apartments.
While the applicant has provided
74 spaces over the code-required 57
parking spaces for office and retail
use, only three additional spaces
have been provided over the coderequired 778 for residential use.
All of the retail spaces are located
within one building of the fourbuilding project, rather than scat-

tered throughout the entire project

as originally proposed.
My main concern remains the relationship of the 12-acre Station Park
Green development to the singlefamily residences located across
South Delaware Street: the 19th
Avenue/Park neighborhood. The
Rail Corridor Plan allows a maximum height of 35 feet for buildings
along South Delaware Street. This
will overshadow the single-story
homes on the east side of South
Delaware Street. New renderings presented at the Jan. 13 meeting
showed many exterior building
enhancements that provide greater
articulation and visual interest.
Unfortunately, these same enhancements were applied sparingly to the
South Delaware Street buildings,
which are in greater need of the
scale-defining elements for compatibility with 19th Avenue/Park residences.

project and sent it along to the City
Council.
What a shame that the Jan. 15 edition of the Daily Journal made no
mention that traffic or parking was
discussed at this meeting. This is
strange because everyone from San
Jose to San Francisco sees the traffic jams increasing.Station Park
Green and the proposed project
across the street from it, the Hines
Project, are both in the busy intersection of State Route 92 and
Highway 101, each of which lead to
Interstate 280 not far away. Egress
on and off those highways is dangerous, especially to El Camino Real, a
major thoroughfaretwo blocks
away.
Convoluted, congested traffic and
no parking. What were you thinking, members of the Planning
Commission? Or do you all live so
far from these intersections that
your eyes are shielded by blinders?
Hopefully, the councilmembers
have no such impediment to their
eyesight, and they will send Alan
Talansky, vice president of EBL&S,
back to the drawing board.

eware of all enterprises that require new

clothes. Henry David Thoreau.
Viewing the commercials for womens clothing on TV
over the holidays made me wonder if the models could
get any thinner and if the clothes could get any uglier.
This brought to mind a column I wrote some time ago
about a futile attempt to find something dressy to wear
for a special occasion like a sons wedding. Its dedicated to women who are, shall I say, not svelte.
I wrote: It always makes me laugh when some woman I
know tells me about her trials and tribulations while
shopping for clothes. These are often the same females
who will, in the course of our conversation, say something like, Im getting so
dumpy! I just have to go
on a diet. They will sit
right there next to me and
say that! And they are
probably a size 6 or 8.
Good grief! These
women dont have any idea
of what a pain it can be to
shop for suitable clothing. At least they can go
into a store and try on a
variety of items right off
the racks. Consider my
plight for a woman of my
age and stature, I want to
tell them (I sometimes do, but there is rarely a flicker of
understanding). I am not only not sylph-like (Ill put it
that way), but tall, and gangly more the athletic type
(or at least I used to be). I feel and look like a bull in a
china shop in those polyester designs one finds in
stores these days in larger womens sizes.
I cannot fathom that designers of dresses for welldeveloped women have anything in mind but revenge
(for our supposed gluttony) when they are leaning over
their drawing boards (or whatever) thinking big
which to them is size 14. Why else would they use
sleazy polyester fabrics that cling to every nook and
cranny, drape a big knotted sash around the hips and a
blouson top (I guess to hide the tummy. Ha!)?
My choice of wearing apparel is further limited
because anything made of 100 percent polyester gives
me the creeps, literally and figuratively. I refuse to wear
a top that tucks in or a loose top that shouts, maternity
wear or anything with a belt and buckle which makes the
statement, I do not have a waistline! Skirts are also a
touchy subject since I do not wear shoes with heels any
higher than three-quarter inch. And, of course, ruffles
and bows are just not me!
As my children grew up, I lived in fear of having to
wear something mother of the bridish (or groomish) at a
wedding. In the 70s, I had dreams of my children being
joined with another at an outdoor ceremony, barefoot,
with a garland of daisies and love beads or in Hawaii
where I could wear a muu-muu.
As Judith Rodin wrote in Body Traps: What a
tragedy that women today live with this great self-consciousness. Television, magazines and movies present
and reinforce the glittering, false image, but we have
taken for our own.
To complicate things even more, in the fall collections, anything that might be suitable in style is usually the wrong color. Being a spring-summer color
type, fall colors are all wrong for me. Fall clothes are
almost always offered in hues like mustard, camel, rust,
grape, maroon, earth, bark, olive, licorice or puce all
colors that do not enhance my nondescript coloring.
Am I asking too much? I just want to feel comfortable
and look halfway decent at such an event as a fall or
winter wedding. But why does the fashion industry make
it so difficult for women like me? I would like to see
something in a store made of mostly natural fabric, in a
style that does not make me look like a pillow tied in
the middle or a white-haired old lady in maternity
clothes. Add a cheerful color. I would like to be able to
say, Yes, that looks just right for me, try it on and
have it fit.
In the meantime, if someone wants to, they can tell
me about all of their problems finding suitable clothing
in size 5 or 7, or even 12. But I hope they dont say in
passing that they just have to lose 10 pounds before
Christmas, or summer, or the cruise, or the reunion
because I will not be able to muster the least bit of sympathy.
I guess I should pay attention to what Margaret
Oliphant wrote: Oh, never mind the fashion. When one
has a style of ones own, it is always 20 times better.

NEW YORK A late rise in technology stocks helped the U.S. stock
market stagger to a tiny gain following a choppy day of trading Tuesday.
A combination of tepid earnings
results, falling oil prices and downbeat news kept the market lower for
most of the day. Major indexes started
higher in the first few minutes of trading but quickly faded, as slipping confidence among homebuilders and
another drop in crude pulled housing
and energy stocks down. The S&P 500
spent the afternoon slowly recovering, until a late surge in Apple,
Netflix and other technology titans
helped nudge the index up.
Theres just a lot driving trading
today, Randy Frederick, managing
director of trading and derivatives
with the Schwab Center for Financial
Research. I think were going to see
more volatility for a while, not just
down but up, too.
The S&P 500 index inched up 3.13
points, or 0.2 percent, to finish at
2,022.55.
The Dow Jones industrial average
gained 3.66 points, a sliver of a percent, to 17,515.23, and the Nasdaq
rose 20.46 points, or 0.4 percent, to
4,654.85.
Of the 10 sectors in the S&P 500
index, technology companies had the

best day, with Apple and Netflix

climbing 3 percent.
Frederick said that uncertainty is
behind the recent turbulence.
At the moment, there are just too
many open questions about oil prices
and the global economy. He pointed
to two upcoming events that could
swing markets: a meeting of the
European Central Bank on Thursday
and elections in Greece on Sunday.
Many in the markets are betting that
the ECB will unveil a new effort to
revive that regions flagging economy.
U.S. economic news Tuesday offered
little encouragement. A weak signal
from the housing market sent
builders stocks down. The National
Association of Home Builders/Wells
Fargos builder sentiment index
slipped a point from the prior month,
an indication that they feel slightly
less confident in their sales prospects
heading into the spring. D.R. Horton
dropped 81 cents, or 3 percent, to
$22. 95, while PulteGroup lost 77
cents, or 4 percent, to $20.80.
The International Monetary Fund
cut its forecasts for global growth
over the next two years, warning that
persistent weakness in most major
economies will outweigh any benefit
from lower oil prices. It now predicts
global growth at 3.5 percent this year
and 3.7 percent in 2016.
Chinas government said that its

Global economy squeezed by slowdown in China

By Kelvin Chan and Paul Wiseman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

HONG KONG The global economy, slowed by stagnation in Europe

and Japan, is being further hampered
by Chinas decelerating growth.
The Chinese economy grew 7.4 percent in 2014, its weakest performance
in nearly a quarter-century. And its
growth is forecast to slow even more
over the next two years.
The figures released Tuesday remain,
by just about any measure, impressive.
China continues to grow at more than
twice the pace of the overall world and
about three times as fast as the U.S.

economy. Yet its growth rate marks a

sharp drop from Chinas sizzling double-digit expansion in previous years.
And given its size, China has an outsize effect on the world. Chinas share
of the global economy climbed from
4.5 percent in 2000 to an estimated
11.3 percent last year, according to the
World Bank.
China is the second-largest economy
in the world, said Paul Sheard, chief
global economist at Standard & Poors
Ratings Services. So when it slows,
the rest of the world is impacted.
On Tuesday, the International
Monetary Fund downgraded its forecast
for the global economy for this year

and next and pointed to Chinas slowing economy as a key factor. The IMF
said Chinas growth would weaken to
6.8 percent this year and 6.3 percent in
2016. Chinas slowdown will dent
growth in countries it imports from,
especially in Asia, the report said.
Chinas 2014 expansion was its
slowest since 1990, when growth tumbled to 3.8 percent a result of economic sanctions imposed on China
after its violent crackdown on the
Tiananmen Square protests. Last years
7. 4 percent growth undershot
Beijings target of 7.5 percent, its first
miss since 1998, according to analysts.

Yahoo CEO poised to make fateful decision on Alibaba stake

By Michael Liedtke
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO Yahoo CEO

Marissa Mayer is facing her biggest
business decision since she left
Google two-and-a-half years ago to
lead its struggling rival: how to manage Yahoos most valuable asset, a 15
percent stake in Chinese Internet star
Alibaba Group worth nearly $37 billion.
This is a defining moment for her,
says Eric Jackson, managing partner
of hedge fund Ironfire Capital, a longtime Yahoo shareholder. Marissa has

a chance to really boost the stock if

she plays her cards right.
Mayer has promised to outline her
Alibaba plans on or before Jan. 27,
when the company will release its
fourth-quarter
earnings.
Most
investors are hoping Mayer will spin
off the Alibaba stake to ease Yahoos
tax bill after the company sells those
holdings. Mayer also is under pressure
to return windfalls from Yahoos Asian
investments to shareholders instead of
plowing more money into an acquisition strategy that some think hasnt
paid off.
Activist investor Jeffrey Smith has

threatened to lead a shareholder rebellion aimed at ousting Mayer if she proposes a plan that doesnt maximize
Yahoos tax savings or risks squandering money on far-flung acquisitions.
Such actions would be a clear indication to us that significant leadership
change is required at Yahoo, Smith
wrote in a Jan. 8 letter to Mayer. Smith
controls 7.7 million Yahoo shares a
0.8 percent stake through Starboard
Value LP. The New York hedge fund last
year reshuffled the board of directors at

Netflix reels in 4.3M more subscribers in 4Q; stock surges

By Michael Liedtke
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO Coming off its

best quarter yet, Netflix is hoping to
hook millions more Internet video
subscribers with the lure of original
programming as it accelerates its
international expansion in an effort to

build the leading network for the digital-streaming age.

Netflix Inc. added 13 million worldwide subscribers last year, including
4. 3 million during the final three
months, according to figures released
Tuesday in the companys fourth-quarter earnings report. The performance
marked Netflixs biggest quarter of

subscriber gains ever, eclipsing the

4.07 million added in the final three
months of 2013.
Earnings also rose to a new quarterly
high of $83.4 million, or $1.35 per
share, a 72 percent increase from the
same time last year. The latest quarter
included a one-time gain of $39 million from the resolution of a tax audit.

Why cheaper jet fuel wont mean lower airfares anytime soon
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

DALLAS Airlines will save billions this year thanks to cheaper jet
fuel, but they arent likely to share
the bounty with passengers not

while so many flights are already

full.
Instead, the airlines will use their
windfall to pay down debt and reward
shareholders.
Airline CEOs worry that oil prices

could just as easily go higher. They

hope consumers benefiting from
cheaper gasoline will splurge on airline tickets. But the biggest reason
airfares arent falling: Planes are
plenty full at current prices.

economy expanded 7.4 percent last

year, its weakest pace in 24 years. The
slower growth is partly a result of
Beijings efforts to wean the economy
off its reliance on heavy industry and
trade. But a range of problems, including a slumping property market and
uneven exports, have hampered the
shift.
Europes stock markets ended
mixed. Frances CAC 40 gained 1.2
percent, while Germanys DAX closed
with a gain of 0.1 percent.
Johnson & Johnson, the maker of
Tylenol, Band-Aids and baby shampoo, turned in earnings early Tuesday
that beat analysts forecasts, yet it
came up short for revenue, largely a
result of a stronger dollar. Sales of
medical devices and other products
sank as transactions in foreign currencies translated into fewer dollars. The
companys stock fell $2.75, or 3 percent, to $101.29.
Delta Air Lines surged $3.33, or 7
percent, to $49. 17, thanks to its
stronger results. The recent slump in
oil prices helped, as the airline spent
much less on fuel at the end of last
year compared with the same period of
2013.
In other trading, prices climbed in
the U.S. government bond market,
tamping Treasury yields down. The
yield on the 10-year Treasury dipped
to 1.79 percent, a sharp drop from
1.84 percent late Friday.

Business briefs
DreamWorks to ax local jobs
DreamWorks Animation will let go of up to 400 employees, including some at its Redwood City studio, after a string
of flops at the box office last year, the Los Angeles Times
reported yesterday.
The layoffs will account for about 20 percent of the companys California workforce. The company also reduced its
workforce 350 employees in 2013.
The studios most recent release Penguins of Madagascar
didnt perform as well as expected. Some analysts expect
DreamWorks will take a write-down on the film, the Times
reported.
The studio took a $57 million write-down last year for its
animated feature Mr. Peabody & Sherman and a $13.5 million charge on its summer movie Turbo. Those followed an
$87 million write-down for the 2012 Rise of the Guardians
holiday movie, the Times reported.
The studio behind Shrek saw its stock drop 7.2 percent
yesterday to close at $20.56 on Nasdaq.

Twitter buys ZipDial in bid

for users in emerging markets
NEW YORK Twitter said Tuesday that it plans to buy
Indian mobile marketing company ZipDial as it tries to
reach new users in developing regions.
The San Francisco company did not disclose financial
details or when it expects the deal to close.
ZipDial connects brands with consumers in emerging markets where mobile data is expensive and Wi-Fi connections
are limited. With ZipDial, consumers bypass data charges.
They call a unique phone number, hang up and ZipDial sends
them free texts or voicemails with sports scores, coupons or
other content and information.
Calling and hanging up is also a way to follow users of
Twitter. A phone number can be assigned to politicians or
celebrities, for example, and users automatically receive
tweets through texts instead of going to Twitters website or
app. Phone numbers can be printed on billboards, newspaper ads or TV commercials. Founded in 2010, ZipDial has
created campaigns for beverage maker PepsiCo and toy
maker Mattel Inc., according to its website.

Google and Fidelity invest in Elon Musks SpaceX

SpaceX says it has raised $1 billion and added Google Inc.

SpaceX designs and makes rockets and spacecraft. It was
founded in 2002 with the ultimate goal of enabling people to

Its spacecraft has been used to deliver goods to the
International Space Station.
Space Exploration Technologies says it plans to use the

Musgrave Raiders new offensive coordinator

By Josh Dubow
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ALAMEDA Jack Del Rio picked the

same offensive coordinator to start his
tenure in Oakland as he did more than a
decade ago in Jacksonville.
Thats even after he fired Bill Musgrave
two years into his stint with the Jaguars.
Musgrave said Tuesday he harbors no hard
feelings toward Del Rio over his dismissal
10 years ago and said he looks forward to
working with Del Rio again with the
Oakland Raiders.

Jack and I are always

pulling in the same direction, Musgrave said.
We had some real positive times there in
Jacksonville. ... I really
learned a lot. I sure wish
we would have won
enough or won the
Bill Musgrave tiebreaker to get in the
tournament that year, but
it didnt work out. Jacks very competitive,
just as I am, so I definitely understood the
decision.

The Raiders also hired Brad Seeley as their

special teams coach. Seeley had that same
job the past four seasons in San Francisco.
He also won special teams coach of the year
in Cleveland in 2009 and won three Super
Bowls in 10 seasons as special teams coach
in New England
Musgrave helped develop Byron Leftwich
after he was drafted in the first round by
Jacksonville in 2003 and relied heavily on
running back Fred Taylor, who rushed for
2,796 yards in two years under Musgrave.

finalize deal
By Janie McCauley

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

The Peninsula Athletic League girls soccer season may be entering only its third
week of the schedule, but Tuesdays matchup
between visiting Half Moon Bay and host
Hillsdale could not have been more crucial
for both squads.
Both came into the game with only one
win in league play and both were quickly
losing the ability to control their own destinies of nishing in the top three of the
division and earning an automatic Central
Coast Section berth.
Woodside and Burlingame, who were both
undefeated going into Tuesdays games, are
threatening to run away from the rest of the
pack. A win for either the Cougars or
Knights was crucial in keeping the top
teams in sight.
Half Moon Bays chances were not helped
as a number of players got caught up in an
accident on State Route 92 in Half Moon
Bay. Several did not show up until about 10
minutes before game time.
The inability to properly warm up may
not have factored in the nal result, however, as the Knights sent wave after wave of
offensive assaults on the Half Moon Bay
goal in 3-0 Hillsdale victory.
Its pretty big, said Tayla Kelley of the
win. The Hillsdale wing/midelder scored
twice the Knights rst and third goals.
We did a better job of connecting passes
than we used to.
Kelley gave a pretty good indication of
what kind of game it would be as she took a
pass on the left ank on the opening kickoff, carried the ball near the endline before
sending a cross into the box that was
grabbed by Half Moon Bay goalkeeper
Sarah OKeefe.
In fact, if not for the play of OKeefe, the
score could have been a lot worse. Hillsdale
(2-1-2 PAL Bay) outshot Half Moon Bay (14) 19-9, with OKeefe nishing with 14

still manages to get a foot on the ball during the Knights 3-0 win over the Cougars. Jenkins
would score her teams second goal on a similar play.

SAN FRANCISCO Nori Aoki is offering a

bold challenge to World Series MVP Madison
Bumgarner, one of his new San Francisco
Giants teammates.
Ive heard that Madison likes to wrestle, I
think Im going to initiate the wrestling, the
left fielder joked Tuesday.
Aoki brings more than just a big personality and sense of humor to the World Series
champions. Manager Bruce Bochy is projecting him as the teams starting left fielder,
while noting Aokis versatility allows him to fill in
for Angel Pagan in center
field and Hunter Pence in
right as needed. Pagan will
begin spring training next
month as the leadoff hitter,
another job Aoki can handle with his speed and ability to steal bases.
Nori Aoki
Of course Id like to hit
at the top of the order but
thats going to be his decision, Aoki said,
speaking through regular interpreter Kosuke
Inaji, who joins him in the move to the Bay
Area.
Aoki finalized his $4.7 million, one-year
contract Monday and was formally introduced
a day later at AT&T Park. Both sides appear
hopeful he could stick around beyond this season.
Bochy figures Aoki might reconsider the
wrestling match once he lines up next to the 6foot-5, 235-pound Bumgarner.
That may be our opening day deal, to have
these two get in the ring. That would be entertaining, I will say, speed against bulk, Bochy
said. I dont know if hell stay with that comment once he stands next to Madison. He may
back off that one.
Aoki played last season with Kansas City,
which lost the World Series to the Giants in
seven games.
Ive always liked the city of San Francisco

He also received praise on Twitter from

Monday night in Charlotte with good
friends Kyle Larson and Kasey Kahne, who
both have sprint car backgrounds.
When I grew up I played sports and I
wrestled in middle school, and all my
friends and classmates kind of outgrew me,
he said Tuesday. I was limited to the things
I could do and I became a big race fan. Well,

I didnt even think I could race until I did it

for the rst time. Its just so cool to have
the feeling that people really believe in you
and would like to see you achieve. Then let
alone winning the Chili Bowl ... I think a
lot of people believe in me. Im glad that
people can really see who I am and they
dont judge me for what I look like or why

Djokovic, Serena cruise in first round of Aussie Open

By John Pye
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MELBOURNE, Australia As a firsttime dad with a baby at home, Novak

Djokovic could see merits in the tale of
Serena Williams mid-match espresso that
has been brewing in the lead-up to the
Australian Open.
Hey, he reckons, why not open up the
menu?
The No. 1 seeds in the mens and womens
draws both had straight-set wins in their
first-round matches on Tuesday. Djokovic
shrugged off the effects of a cold to beat No.
116-ranked Aljaz Bedene 6-3, 6-2, 6-4 in
his first Grand Slam match as a father, and
Williams beat No. 106-ranked Alison Van
Uytvanck 6-0, 6-4.
Williams, with five Australian titles in

her collection of 18
majors, didnt need anything to perk her up as
she raced through the first
set in 21 minutes. It was a
vastly different story
when she arrived in
Australia, jet-lagged, this
month to start her prepaNovak Djokovic rations for the seasons
first major, and asked for
a coffee during a Hopman Cup match in
Perth.
She checked with the chair umpire and
tournament referee first, because she didnt
know if she could order a brew. The coffee
was served, and Williams rallied for a win.
Judging by what she did, it opens up a
new chapter of rules I guess on the tennis
court, Djokovic said. Maybe we need to

explore more. Some people cant live without

coffee in the morning, it
keeps them going. I
guess that helped her in
that match.
Djokovic has left his
wife and baby son
Stefan, who was born in
October at home as he
Serena
bids for a fifth title at
Williams
Melbourne Park. He was
sick on the weekend, and missed some practices.
It hasnt been an ideal couple of weeks in
terms of health and preparation, he said.
But I fought my way through. Now its
behind me.
Djokovic won the first of his Australian
Open titles in 2008, then three in a row

from 2011. But his 25-match winning

streak at Melbourne Park ended in a quarterfinal loss last year to eventual champion
Stan Wawrinka.
That led to a breakout year for Wawrinka
that included his first major, a rise to No. 3
in the rankings, and a Davis Cup title with
Switzerland.
Seeded fourth, he began the defense of a
major for the first time with a 6-1, 6-4, 6-2
win over No. 100-ranked Marsel Ilhan.
Its great, bringing me a lot of memories
from last year, Wawrinka said of his return.
It was great to come back here feeling
happy, happy with my game.
U.S. Open finalist Kei Nishikori and
Wimbledon semifinalist Milos Raonic are
part of the next generation of serious major
contenders, and both opened their campaigns well.

Woman: Boxing champ threatened to kill children

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

A Little Rock woman said Tuesday that

boxer Jermain Taylor threatened to shoot her
three small children, and that she knocked
the gun away after the cursing middleweight
once called a role model by the citys
mayor put the weapon to her husbands
head.
Toya Smith, 40, said she and her family,
including children ages 5, 3, and 1, were
watching the citys Martin Luther King Jr.
Day parade Monday when Taylor, 36, produced his championship belt and asked to get
a photo with her 5-year-old son. Smith says
her family had never met Taylor before and

that it appeared he had

been drinking.
He bent down to give
my son the belt and he
almost fell over and
dropped the belt, and he
thought my baby dropped
the belt, Smith said.

the air, injuring her husbands ear, Smith

said. He was going to shoot him, but I saw
it, he was going to kill him and I had to hit
the gun.
Taylors attorneys did not return phone
calls for comment Tuesday.
A Little Rock police report says Taylor was
arrested without incident and a gun was recovered. He is charged with aggravated assault,
endangering the welfare of a minor and drug
possession. Sheriffs Capt. Carl Minden said
Taylor was released from the Pulaski County
jail Tuesday after posting $50,000 bond.
Smith said she and her family had tried to
leave in their car, but Taylor continued pointing the gun toward the vehicle.

He was pointing at the kids, so I jumped in

front of him again and said Please dont
shoot my kids, Smith said.
She said Taylor cursed, saying that he didnt care about the children or her and that he
was going to kill her husband.
Taylor, who won the International Boxing
Federation middleweight title in October, has
served as an unofficial ambassador for
Arkansas since 2000, when he won a bronze
medal at the Sydney Olympics.
He is a role model and someone I have
looked up to, and I will continue to do so,
said Jim Dailey, who was Little Rocks mayor
during Taylors heyday. He called the boxers

Golfer Dustin Johnson, who took

leave, says cocaine not his issue
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK Golfer Dustin Johnson says

in a magazine interview that cocaine is not the
reason he chose to sit out the last six months
to get his life in order.
I did not have a problem, Johnson told
Sports Illustrated when asked about cocaine.
Its just something Im not going to get into.
I have issues. But thats not the issue.
Johnson, who already has eight PGA Tour
wins at age 30, said in August that he was taking a leave of absence from the PGA Tour to
seek professional help for what he called personal challenges. Golf.com reported that he
had failed a drug test for the third and time and
had been suspended. The PGA Tour denied he
had been suspended.
The interview was the first for Johnson

since he took his leave of absence. He missed

the final major, the FedEx Cup playoffs and the
Ryder Cup. He has said he would not return to
golf until his fiancee, Paulina Gretzky, has
their first child. Johnson announced Tuesday
evening that she gave birth to a healthy boy.
He said he didnt go to rehab during his break
from golf, instead hiring a team of experts,
such as a life coach, to help him understand
how to get the most out of his talent. Johnson
is regarded as one of the best American players
and the most athletic.
He said he learned he didnt handle stress the
right way.
My way of getting rid of it was drinking or
partying, he told the magazine. Yeah, that
might work for that day or the next week, but
eventually everything keeps piling up.

Hillsdale simply wore out the Cougars defensive line,
which played a at-back four and used an offside trap to try

But Hillsdale gured out quickly enough how to beat it,
although the Knights were whistled for a handful of offside

It didnt take long after Kelleys initial offensive foray for
the Knights to cash in. In the seventh minute, right wing

that OKeefe parried away but the rebound went right to

Kelley, who slotted a shot into the empty net for a 1-0 lead.
After a few more attacks that were denied or werent on target, the Knights doubled their lead in the 25th minute.
Masarova again helped out with the goal. She won the battle for control of the ball when the Cougars failed to clear
the it out of their defensive end. Masarova then popped a
cross to the top of the Cougars penalty box. Erica Jenkins
and a Half Moon Bay defender both went up for the ball.
Jenkins somehow managed to get a boot on it as the two
collided. The ball arced toward the goal and OKeefe realized
her only hope was the ball would go over the top of the
goal.
There would be no such luck on this day as the ball
dropped just under the crossbar and into the net for a 2-0
Hillsdale lead at halftime.
In the second half, Half Moon Bay picked up its game and
evened out the possession. The Cougars even managed to
get a number of shots off, but they were all from signicant
distance and Hillsdale goalkeeper Julia Guidi had little difculty in handling the saves.

San Jose Sharks brief

Sharks place Wingels,
Braun on injured list
SAN JOSE The San Jose Sharks have
placed forward Tommy Wingels and defenseman Justin Braun on injured reserve.
The team also called up defenseman Dylan
DeMelo from Worcester of the AHL and
loaned defenseman Mirco Mueller to
Worcester on a conditioning assignment
Tuesday.
Wingels and Braun both left Monday
nights 5-2 loss to New Jersey with upperbody injuries. Braun got hurt blocking a
shot in the second period and Wingels was
hurt on a slash in the third. Coach Todd
McLellan says both players will be out for
a while.
Wingels is tied for third on the team with
11 goals and also has 14 assists. Braun has
one goal, 18 assists and a career-high 19
points this season.
DeMelo has three goals and 10 assists in
38 games with Worcester this season.
The Sharks, with 54 points, is currently in
third place in the Pacific Division and are in
seventh in the Western Conference.

The Knights offense, meanwhile, was shredding the

Cougars defensive line. Hillsdale had several opportunities
to put the game away, but just could not nd that nishing
touch.
Until the 69th minute that is. Rieli Tjan sent a perfect
through ball into the heart of the Cougars defensive line
that a streaking Kelley ran on to for a breakaway.
There would be no denying her this time as she calmly
slotted a shot past OKeefe to put the Knights up 3-0.
This game, we said we cant underestimate the team based
on their record, said Hillsdale defender Monica Vel, who
got bolder and bolder as the game progressed, jumping up
into the attack more often.
When we play like this mentally, it helps us and builds
our condence.

Crystal Springs 5, Eastside Prep 0

The Gryphons dominated the Panthers in a West Bay
Athletic League match Tuesday, outshooting them 43-0
along the way.
Our keeper didnt touch the ball, said Crystal Springs
coach Michael Flynn.
Despite the gaudy shooting numbers, Crystal Springs (30 WBAL Skyline, 7-4 overall) led just 1-0 at halftime on the
rst of three Hannah Williams goals in the 18th minute off
an assist from Megan Duncanson.
In the second half, the Gryphons found the breathing
room they needed. Williams scored her second goal eight
minutes after halftime, with an assist going to super freshman Nikki Lee. Williams wrapped up her hat trick in the
54th minute, with Maddie Vagadori adding the helper.
EV Nora and Duncanson rounded out the scoring with
unassisted goals in the 74th and 80th minutes, respectively.

Concussion
suit is filed
against WWE
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

PHILADELPHIA Two former

professional wrestlers accuse the
WWE of selling violence while
ignoring concussions that they say
left them with serious brain injuries.
The men, including one who performed under the name Skull Von
Krush, have filed a potential classaction lawsuit in federal court in
Philadelphia that echoes thousands
of suits pending against the NFL. The
NFL litigation, pending in the same
courthouse, could yield a $1 billion
settlement if a judge approves the
proposed deal.
The WWE plaintiffs are 50-year-old
Vito LoGrasso of Coatesville and 22year-old Evan Singleton of
Lancaster.
Under the guise of providing
entertainment, the WWE has, for
decades, subjected its wrestlers to
extreme physical brutality that it
knew, or should have known, caused
created latent conditions and longterm irreversible bodily damage,
including brain damage, the lawsuit
said.
The lawsuit said that Singleton,
who performed under the name Adam
Mercer from 2012 to 2013, is now
disabled because of brain trauma he
suffered early in his career, which
began at 19. LoGrasso suffers from
migraines, memory loss, depression
and deafness after nearly a decade with
the WWE, the lawsuit said. His various stage names included Skull Von
Krush and Big Vito.
The Stamford, Connecticut-based
company, led by Chairman and CEO
Vince McMahon, planned to comment later Tuesday.
The suit describes some of the more
dramatic tricks performed by WWE
wrestlers, including the flying head
butt and the chair shot, which
involves striking a performer in the
head with a folding chair.
When performed by, and on, hulking, poorly trained ... wrestlers with
various levels of dexterousness, they
(the tricks) are a recipe for disaster
and widespread, long-term brain damage, said the lawsuit, filed by
lawyers Harris L. Pogust of suburban
Philadelphia and Charles J. LaDuca of
Bethesda, Maryland.

Sports brief
Source: Vic Fangio hired
as Bears defensive coordinator
A person with knowledge of the deal says former
San Francisco 49ers defensive coordinator Vic Fangio
has taken the same job with the Chicago Bears under
new coach John Fox.
Fangio has signed his new contract, the person
said, speaking on condition of anonymity Tuesday
because there had been no formal announcement.
The 56-year-old Fangio had been a candidate for the
defensive coordinator job with the Washington
Redskins, who hired Joe Barry on Tuesday.
Fangio was bypassed for the 49ers coaching job,
given to defensive line coach Jim Tomsula last week.

play for a championship each year.
One order of business off the field will be

shot will help him gain recognition outside

There are so many more NASCAR fans
that dont follow dirt racing and dont know
what I do, so Im really looking forward to
it, he said. I think the fans will react a lot
differently than the average driver aver-

SPORTS
Aoki said. I know that one of the coaches
wears No. 23. I heard he likes to play golf,
maybe I can buy him some golf clubs and
maybe even a Rolex.
Given the departure of switch-hitting slugger Pablo Sandoval to Boston last fall, San
Franciscos brass realized that without that
power, the Giants might have to find creative
ways to score runs with aggressive baserunning and contributions from throughout the
lineup to fill Panda void.

He kind of reminds of Pablo a little bit, hes

not going to hit the home runs like Pablo,
Bochy said of Aoki. We acquired him to play.
Aoki, 33, receives a $4 million base salary
this year, and the Giants have a $5.5 million
option for 2016 with a $700,000 buyout. The
option would become mutual if Aoki has 550
plate appearances this year, and he would
receive the buyout if he exercises the option
and the team declines.

THE DAILY JOURNAL

Aoki hit .285 with a home run, six triples,
22 doubles and 43 RBIs over 132 games in his
lone season with the Royals after two in
Milwaukee. He also stole 17 bases.
We know our clubhouse is under construction but our roster is getting closer and closer
to being set, assistant general manager
Bobby Evans said. We see Nori as a tremendous athlete, a tremendous presence.
The Giants have yet to make a corresponding move to add Aoki to the 40-man roster,
preferring to use the time they have before the
contract is filed with Major League Baseball.
Sabean was sorry to miss Aokis introductory
news conference; he is in Arizona with a respiratory condition and doctors advised him not
to fly for a few days.

Bochy said Aoki is a tough out and has the

ability to hit to all fields and is equally as reliable on defense. Outfielder Gregor Blanco,
who reached agreement on a $7.5 million,
two-year contract Sunday, will come off the
bench and spell players for days off.

Aoki can earn an additional $1.5 million in

performance bonuses each year based on plate
appearances: $100,000 each for 400, 425,
475 and 500; and $250,000 apiece for 525,
550, 575 and 600. The team will release him at
the end of the contract, making him a free
agent again.

getting out on the field in the spring and

really finding out where their strengths lie.
We talked about tailoring our system to fit
them, but Ive got a hunch that a lot of the
things we did here in Philadelphia will
match up real nice and be effective.
In five years as the play caller in
Minnesota and Jacksonville, Musgraves
teams always ranked in the top half in the
league in percentage of run plays. The
Raiders were last in that category last season under Greg Olson and would like to do a
better job establishing the run this season.
The Raiders were one of the NFLs worst
offenses last season. Oakland finished last
in total offense (282.2 yards per game), sec-

ond-worst in scoring offense (15.8 points

per game), last in rushing offense (77.5
yards per game), and 26th in passing
offense.
Im definitely not going to come in with
a system and force anybody to do something thats not natural, Musgrave said.
Were definitely going to try to customize
and tailor the Raiders system to fit the
Raider players. Philosophically, I do
believe in running the football. I definitely
want to be a physical outfit that runs the
ball and imposes their will on the defense.
Despite the lack of production, Musgrave
said he was attracted to the job because of
the presence of quarterback Derek Carr.

Carr started all 16 games and became the

seventh rookie to top 3,000 yards passing
and 20 touchdown passes in a season.

Abreu is following a similar path to the
one close friend Larson took to climb from
sprint cars to NASCARs reigning Sprint
Cup rookie of the year. Larson won the K&N
East title in 2012 and was full-time in
NASCAR the next year.
Larson occasionally drives in NASCARs
second-tier Xnity Series for Harry Scott
Jr. , who has a partnership with Chip
Ganassi Racing, his Cup team. Abreu could
soon nd himself with opportunities at
NASCARs national level.
Abreu had Tuesday earmarked for his rst

stock car and pavement race on Saturday at
New Smyrna in Florida. Abreus rst K&N

He said NASCAR has signed off on the
modications needed in a stock car to

NASCAR came and saw all the improvements and theyre ne with it all, he said.
They said everything is safe and looks

East entry will be led by veteran K&N crew

chief Mardy Lindley. He has ve career victories in three seasons, along with the 2013
K&N title with driver Dylan Kwasniewski.

Musgrave said he will be involved in filling out the rest of the offensive coaching
staff. The team has already hired Mike Tice
to coach the offensive line.
Musgrave also served short stints as
offensive coordinator with Philadelphia and
Carolina before joining the Jaguars. He got
his coaching start in 1997 as the quarterbacks coach in Oakland when Jeff George

Abreu, an open wheel standout, will continue to race open wheel events and gures
he will do 120 this year. He said he noticed

Gochujang is what
you want for your
Super Bowl wings
By Aarti Sequeira
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Ill admit, I have a thing for

condiments. My refrigerator is full
of them. Mustards, chutneys,
ketchups, mayonnaises and so on.
And I love them all.
But lately, Ive been reaching for
one condiment more than any other.
Its what some people call Koreas
answer to ketchup. But gochujang
(pronounced GO-choo-jong) is so
much more wonderful, complex and
versatile than a basic ketchup. I
promise, this is a condiment you
want to get to know.
Just in the past year, gochujang
has become a darling of the food
scene. Chefs around the country
love the way it dances across the
taste buds, lighting them up with
shades of heat, sweet, savory,
smoke and a gentle funky tang.
Made from red chilies, fermented
soybeans, rice, salt and sugar, this
thick red paste is a mainstay of
Korean cuisine.
In Korean cooking, gochujang is
used as a base for stews and marinades, as well as a feisty condiment
for one-pot dishes such as bibimbap
(a rice bowl usually topped with

meats, vegetables, pickles and a

fried egg). I first encountered gochujang when I lived with two KoreanAmerican women after university. I
remember watching Sara make herself a quick lunch of steamed sticky
rice wrapped in small squares of seaweed and topped with a dollop of
gochujang. It was deceptively simple, but one bite and the complexity
of the briny seaweed crashing
against the sweet heat of the gochujang had me reaching for her entire
lunch.
These days, gochujang is on my
breakfasts of scrambled eggs and
vegetables. Mixed with soy sauce
and vinegar, it makes a quick marinade for meats. I even add a spoonful
to pasta sauces, chili and salad
dressings for a little meaty depth.
But my favorite? These easy baked
chicken wings. Add some chilled
cucumber spears dressed lightly
with sesame oil and salt, and youve
got a Korean-inspired answer to the
ultimate Super Bowl snack.

powder and a hefty pinch each of
salt and pepper. Arrange the chicken pieces in an even layer on the
rack over the prepared pan. Roast
for 40 minutes, or until golden,

turning the pan after 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, prepare the sauce. In
a second large bowl, whisk together
the gochujang, soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, garlic, ginger and
sesame oil. Set aside.
Once the chicken wings have
roasted, transfer them to the bowl
with the sauce. Toss until well coated, then return them to the roasting
rack. Increase the oven to broil and
set the chicken on an oven shelve
about 6 inches from the heat. Broil
for 2 to 4 minutes, or until the sauce
bubbles and chars in places.
Transfer to a serving platter, then
sprinkle with sesame seeds and
accompany with cucumber spears.

Point Tuesday, said Rebecca Dmytryk, executive director of the nonprofit Wildlife

As wild animals, its likely the birds may
have come in contact with the substance elsewhere before making their way down the
Peninsula, Dmytryk said.
Wildlife officials are working around the
clock to identify the substance that is
apparently not petroleum-based, but has
impacted more than 300 birds. The hazardous toxin breaks down birds feather

leading to death, Dmytryk said.

Fridays first reports began in Alameda
County and the East Bay, but Dmytryk said
its troubling to find birds days later and as far
away from the original sites as Foster City.
Its unprecedented in that its some type of
pollution event where determination of the
substance has taken a long time, delayed by a
holiday weekend. We still dont know what it
is. Its one of the toughest things weve seen
coating birds, which means longer periods of
handling for these already stressed animals,
Dmytryk said. The clock starts ticking when
these birds get impacted and hypothermia
kicks in. Every day that goes by lessens the
chance they can be saved.
Rescuers are in desperate need of volunteers
to help search the shoreline for more distressed birds, Dmytryk said. Volunteers are

ml.
Wildlife rescuers at the International Bird

Rescue center in Fairfield were treating and

cleaning the majority of the birds by using
baking soda and vinegar to loosen the sticky
goo before washing it off with dish soap.
Around 300 birds were found alive and transferred to Fairfield for treatment while many of
the 100 deceased have been transferred to the
California Department of Fish and Wildlife
labs in Sacramento, said Andrew Hughan,
department spokesman.
Those numbers are slowly increasing. We
have no update yet on what it is, where it
came from. But we have two labs working on
separate tracks. We have the petroleum investigation lab looking into the material and
then a wildlife lab thats doing necropsies on
the birds, Hughan said. Obviously this is a
huge priority with the department so the scientists are chained to their desks.
Barbara Callahan, International Bird
Rescue interim executive director, told
the Associated Press she has never seen
anything like the sticky gray goo in 20

years in the business.

The goo appears to be light gray in color
and to me looks like rubber cement thats
been played with all day and is sort of dirty,
she told the Associated Press. It has very little smell.
Officials were investigating whether the
substance could be polyisobutylene, which is
sticky, odorless, largely colorless and killed
thousands of seabirds in the United Kingdom
in 2013, according to the Associated Press.
While on its face, this substance seems
very similar to reports from the U.K. two
years ago, we wont know definitively until
lab tests are completed, Callahan told the
Associated Press.
Hughan said it will likely take some time
before the department can identify the viscous substance and work to determine from
where it came. Only after the source is discovered and depending on what led to the
mass-kill can possible sanctions or penalties
be discussed, Hughan said.

you. If you want to play more competitively, were going to have staff to help you get

The building is proposed to be 62,715
square feet, spread across two floors. More
than 50,000 square feet on first floor will
host the regulation-sized courts, as well as a
reception area, stretching space, locker
rooms, offices and storage space. A cafe,
Ping-Pong tables, video review room and
restrooms will fill the additional 10,465
square feet upstairs, according to a city
report.
Spearheading a project of this size is a
first for the Mattas, whose only prior experience in coordinating a sports program was
starting a soccer club in Woodside.
Despite their inexperience in negotiating
the city planning process, Matta said that
process has been pleasurable.

Its been an incredibly sharp learning

curve, which has been a sort of energizing
experience, Matta said. Its been really
fun to learn.
When it opens, the tennis center will be
the most recent addition to a strip of already
established health-focused activities in the
Rollins Road region of Burlingame, joining Nothing But Hoops, Bay Badminton
Center, Prime Time Athletic Fitness Club
and Gokart Racer.
Burlingame
Councilman
Michael
Brownrigg said the tennis center fits in
nicely with the rest of the development taking place in that region.
Brownrigg also said he hopes a new, large
facility near the highway will signal to
prospective businesses that Burlingame and
other communities in the area are open for
business.

I think its a tremendous opportunity for

all of us who live here and work here,
Brownrigg said.
Despite the wave of goodwill that is currently paving the way toward the opening
on March 1, Matta said the project was not
without its hurdles.
The entrepreneurs experienced some anxiety when the weather took a turn for the
worse last month, and poor weather and rain
threatened construction, and a King Tide
rose in the Bay.
Ultimately the storm did not seriously
impede progress, but Matta said the experience did expose the family to the variety of
unanticipated dilemmas they may be forced
to overcome as business owners.
It wasnt a problem, but it was amazing
to see the strength of Mother Nature, Matta
said.

allowed to pursue degrees in courses already

offered by the California State University or
University of California systems.
The decision paves the way for students in
highly-technical disciplines greater access
to degrees, which works toward the bills
stated goal of producing 1 million more
bachelors degrees that the state is currently
producing in economically competitive
fields.
Its been made clear that this state needs
1 million more BAs by 2025, and the only
way thats going to happen is if community
colleges bring programs forward, said Tom
Mohr, a member of the San Mateo County
Community College Board of Trustees
Students in the Skyline College respiratory
therapy program joins others pursuing such
degrees as industrial automation, airframe
manufacturing technology, mortuary science
and biomanufacturing, among many others at
other community colleges throughout the

state that are included in the pilot program.

Lower-level classes will cost about $46 and
upper division will cost $84, which will
allow students to spend about $10,000 to
graduate with a bachelors degree, according
to a state report.
The college and the college district are
well equipped to deliver a quality program,
Mohr said. I think it will be an immense success.
The community college district has done
extensive legwork leading up to the decision,
which put it in a position to be selected in the
pilot program, said district spokeswoman
Barbara Christensen.
She noted that the community college district has collaborated with the California
State University system to
offer bachelors degrees. A
nursing program at College
of San Mateo currently

offers a registered nurse, RN degree, and

Caada offers a bachelors of science degree
in nursing through San Francisco State
University.
The district has been a leader in trying to
bring four-year education here to the county,
said Christensen.
The pilot program will end after the 202223 school year, in time for students enrolled
to graduate with their degrees, at which point
legislators may renew it, pending review.
Dental hygiene students at Foothill
College in Los Altos will also be included in
the pilot program.

Session beers: More flavor, but less buzz

By Michael Felberbaum
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

RICHMOND, Va. When it

comes to beer, Super Bowl
Sunday is a marathon, not a
sprint.
So if youre hoping to sip craft
brews throughout the game, you
might consider more sessionable beers to keep yourself from
passing out before halftime.
These naturally lower-alcohol
brews also get extra points for
their ability to pair well with traditional football party fare, the
chips, dips, wings and pizza we
tend to crave during the big game.
Why does it matter? Many craft
beers pack more alcohol than
mass-produced offerings, sometimes edging up as high as 15
percent alcohol by volume. But
that can lead to a one-and-done
effect not well-suited to longer
events like the Super Bowl. So
craft breweries increasingly are
offering beers such as session
brews that pack less alcohol,
but dont skimp on flavor.
Session beers have been getting more attention lately, but
theyve been around for a while.
Some contend they originated in
England, where they were popular
with workers who wanted something to sip during breaks that
wouldnt leave them too intoxicated to be on the job.
Session beers come in many

forms, but typically are defined as

any style made lower in strength
than classic guidelines and that
doesnt exceed about 5 percent
alcohol by volume (craft beers
average about 6 percent). Several
traditional beer styles, such as a
Kolsch, pilsner, lager and pale
ale, as well as more unique beer
styles with more sour character
like Berliner weisse or gose, are
typically sessionable because
they are lower in alcohol.
Session really answers the call
to people who want all that flavor
and character and yet a little less
of the alcohol, says Matt
Brynildson, brewmaster for
Firestone Walker Brewing Co. in
Paso Robles, California, which
makes Easy Jack, a popular session IPA. Its an indication that
craft is starting to appeal more to
Joe Six-pack and the folks that
were
drinking
mainstream
lagers.
And this is significant beyond
the Super Bowl. Craft brewers had
almost 8 percent market share
(and 14 percent dollar share) of
the $100 billion U.S. beer market
in 2013, according to the Brewers
Association, which represents
most of the nations 3,200 breweries. Most of the non-craft market falls on the lighter end of the
beer spectrum, an area craft brewers see as primed for growth.
Brewers are bringing the other
end of the rainbow to the craft

beer scene, says Julia Herz, the

craft beer program director at the
Brewers Association. These
beers are light, refreshing and
still satisfying.
While the Brewers Association
is still working to measure just
how big session beers are as a
category, its growing popularity
is clear. Session beers first
appeared as a category during the
Great American Beer Festival in
2007 with 14 entries, though it
originally was called other low
strength ale or lager. In 2014,
the category had 94 entries.
Session beers can be more technically difficult to make because
lighter beers have less complexity to cover up any unwanted flavors from the brewing process,
but Brynildson says session IPAs
in particular are the perfect canvas to highlight the pine and citrus flavor and aroma of the hops
using a light, lean, subtly sweet
backbone.
Some notable and recently
launched session beers worth
considering this Super Bowl
include Founders Brewing Co.s
All Day IPA, Stone Brewing Co.s
Go To IPA, Oskar Blues Brewerys
Pinner Throwback IPA, Sierra
Nevada Brewing Co. s Nooner
Pilsner, and Lagunitas Brewing
Co.s DayTime, whose description reads in part, it still lets
you stay in the game to do what
needs to be done.

OBAMA
Continued from page 1
curtailing or tweaking his own plans to
meet GOP priorities.
Instead, the president vowed to use
his veto pen to strike down the
Republican leaderships efforts to dismantle his signature accomplishments,
including his health care and financial
reform laws.
We cant put the security of families
at risk by taking away their health
insurance or unraveling the new rules
on Wall Street or refighting past battles
on immigration when weve got a system to fix, Obama said in his hourlong address. And if a bill comes to my
desk that tries to do any of these things,
I will veto it.
The president sought out more common ground on foreign policy, pledging to work with Congress on a new
authorization for military action
against the Islamic State group in Iraq
and Syria, as well as legislation to
guard against cyberattacks. In a rare
move away from his own party, Obama
also renewed his call for fast-tracking
free trade agreements with Asia and
Europe, generating more applause from
pro-trade Republicans than skeptical
Democrats.
Obamas address marked the first time
in his presidency that he stood before a
Republican-controlled Congress. Yet
the shift in the political landscape has
also been accompanied by a burst of

FACTS
Continued from page 1
the month the recession began.
Booming energy production is indeed a reality,
but thats a phenomenon many years in the
making, with the development of cost-effective
extraction from fracking and other means playing
into the rise of the U.S. as an energy production
giant.
OBAMA: I am sending this Congress a bold
new plan to lower the cost of community
college to zero.
THE FACTS: Zero for qualifying students; an
estimated $60 billion over 10 years to the treasury.
Obama confronts a Republican-controlled
Congress that can be expected to be wary of a
new program costing that much. Moreover, the
proposal requires states to contribute about a
quarter of the money, and getting them to go
along is bound to be tough. Many states refused
to expand Medicaid under the health care law, for
example, even though Washington is picking up
the entire cost in the first years.
On the other hand, community college is an issue
close to home for state government, perhaps more
appealing than partnering with Washington on
the health law, so the idea could have a fighting
chance if it can get through Congress. Educators
are divided on its merits, with some worrying that
aid for a community college education could
divert students and scholarships away from fouryear schools.
OBAMA: Weve set aside more public lands
and waters than any administration in history.
THE FACTS: Waters is the key word here. Before

economic growth and hiring, as well as

a slight increase in Obamas once-sagging approval ratings leaving the
White House to see little incentive in
acquiescing to Republicans.
After ticking through signs of the rising economy, the president turned
toward Republicans sitting in the
chamber and said with a wink, This is
good news, people.
The centerpiece of Obamas economic proposals marked a shift away from
the focus on austerity and deficit reduction that has dominated his fiscal fights
with Republicans. In a direct challenge
to GOP economic ideology, Obama
called for increasing the capital gains
rate on couples making more than
$500,000 annually, to 28 percent.
The presidents tax plan would also
require estates to pay capital gains
taxes on securities at the time theyre
inherited and slap a fee on the roughly
100 U.S. financial firms with assets of
more than $50 billion.
Much of the $320 billion in new
taxes and fees would be used for measures aimed at helping the middle class,
including a $500 tax credit for some
families with two spouses working,
expansion of the child care tax credit
and a $60 billion program to make
community college free. He also has
called for expanding paid leave for
workers and moved on his own to lower
a mortgage insurance premium rate that
could attract new homebuyers.
Will we accept an economy where
only a few of us do spectacularly well?
Obama asked. Or will we commit ourselves to an economy that generates

rising incomes and chances for everyone who makes the effort?
The presidents proposals seemed
more about giving his party a platform
in the 2016 election than outlining a
realistic legislative agenda. Even
before the presidents address,
Republicans were balking at his proposals and painting a far less rosy picture of the economy.
We see our neighbors agonize over
stagnant wages and lost jobs. We see
the hurt caused by canceled health care
plans and higher monthly insurance
bills, said Iowa Sen. Joni Ernst, who
delivered the Republican response.
But when we demanded solutions, too
often Washington responded with the
same stale mindset that led to failed
policies like Obamacare. Its a mindset
that gave us political talking points,
not serious solutions.
With an eye on a swirl of foreign policy challenges, Obama defended his
decision to return to military action in
Iraq and also authorize airstrikes in
Syria. He said Congress could show
the world that we are united in this mission by passing a new resolution formally authorizing the use of force
against the Islamic State group.
As the U.S. eyes a March deadline for
a framework agreement with Iran on its
disputed nuclear program, the president
vowed to veto any effort by Congress
to pass new sanctions legislation. Such
a step, he said, will all but guarantee
that diplomacy fails alienating
America from its allies and ensuring
that Iran starts up its nuclear program
again.

expanding the Pacific Remote Islands National

Monument last year from almost 87,000 square
miles to more than 490,000 square miles, Obama
had protected far fewer acres than his four
predecessors, including President George W. Bush.
Expansion of the massive Pacific islands
monument puts Obama on top. Its nearly all water,
however, and the move has limited practical
implications. While it bans commercial fishing,
deep-sea mining and other extraction of
underwater resources, little fishing or drilling occur
in the mid-ocean region now.
OBAMA: Thanks to a growing economy, the
recovery is touching more and more lives.
Wages are finally starting to rise again. We
know that more small-business owners plan
to raise their employees pay than at any time
since 2007.
THE FACTS: A survey of small businesses by the
National Federation of Independent Business does
show that a rising proportion plans to raise wages.
But plans to raise pay arent the same as actually
raising them.
Average hourly earnings rose just 1.7 percent in
December from 12 months earlier, according to
the Labor Department. Thats about half the rate
that is typical of a healthy economy and actually
lower than the previous month. Economists
generally expect wage gains to accelerate this
year, as unemployment continues to fall and
businesses are forced to offer higher pay to attract
workers. But there is scant evidence that it is
happening yet.
OBAMA: In Iraq and Syria, American
leadership? ?including our military power?
?is stopping ISILs advance. Instead of
getting dragged into another ground war in
the Middle East, we are leading a broad
coalition, including Arab nations, to degrade
and ultimately destroy this terrorist group.
Were also supporting a moderate opposition

in Syria that can help us in this effort.

THE FACTS: The U.S. also has been slow to set up
long-promised training for the moderate Syrian
opposition, and has yet to begin the actual vetting
of the rebels. Also, despite persistent pleas from
the rebels, the U.S. hasnt sent the more lethal
weapons they want. U.S. officials have expressed
concerns that the weapons could end up in the
hands of insurgents.
Military leaders, however, agree that coalition
airstrikes and the military effort in Syria and Iraq
have stopped the momentum of the Islamic State
group, or ISIL, made it hard for the insurgents to
communicate and travel, and hurt their oil
revenues.
SEN. JONI ERNST: The freshman from Iowa
listed Obamas health care law among his
failed policies and added, We see the hurt
caused by canceled health care plans and
higher monthly insurance bills.
THE FACTS: The jury is still out on the law
Republicans call Obamacare.
The number of uninsured people is down by at
least 10 million. A large ongoing Gallup survey
documented a steady drop in the nations
uninsured rate since the laws big coverage
expansion began last year.
The laws record on affordability is mixed.The share
of Americans forgoing needed medical care
because of cost is down significantly, according
to a Commonwealth Fund survey, and fewer are
struggling to pay medical bills. Yet many insured
people with modest incomes still have problems
with high out-of-pocket costs.
As for harm caused by lost insurance, many in
Ernsts party are intent on repealing the law, which
would probably mean even more lost coverage,
because many of the estimated 10 million
uninsured people who have gained coverage
through the Affordable Care Act would no longer
be able to afford their premiums.
