Community unites to support embattled educator

Burlingame economics and government teacher alleges he is target of administrative retaliation
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Nearly 2,000 members of the Burlingame

High School community signed an online
petition supporting a beloved teacher who
faces being transferred to a different campus
in the wake of an ongoing conflict with the
school principal.
Economics and government teacher
Kevin Nelson said he has been asked by San

Mateo Union High School District administrators to accept reassignment to another
school, after having spent 27 years teaching at Burlingame High School.
Nelson claims the threat of relocation
came from officials at the request of
Principal Di Yim, who is retaliating against
him due to a series of clashes the two have
engaged in since Yim was hired at the
school in 2013.
There was not an issue on the school site
until we got a new principal who has her
own way of doing things, said Nelson.
Nelson, 52, said disagreements ramped up
after Yim implemented changes to the
advance placement policies in his department, which ultimately led two students
requesting to drop some of the classes.
Yim steadfastly denied the requests,
STOCKS PLUNGE ALONG WITH PRICE OF OIL
according to Nelson, which resulted in him

advocating on behalf of the students, furthering the rift between him and the administration.
He said the changes Yim brought has
already compelled two other respected
teachers to leave the school, and now her
focus has turned to punishing him.

Half Moon Bay considers smoking ban

No consensus on regulating apartments, more discussion in March
By Samantha Weigel
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Following the footsteps of other cities in

San Mateo County, Half Moon Bay is considering more stringent smoking prohibitions aimed at reducing unwanted exposure
to secondhand smoke, deterring litter from
polluting the ocean and discouraging youth
from being subjected to the addictive behavior.
The City Council met Tuesday to discuss
updating the coastal towns smoking ordinance. While officials did agree on some
changes, such as banning traditional as well
as electronic cigarettes from being used in
city parks, there was a lack of consensus on
whether to prohibit smoking in multi-family dwellings.
Across the Bay Area, particular cities
have taken a variety of approaches across
the spectrum, said Deputy City Attorney
Reed Gallogly, adding the council will
reconvene to review another draft ordinance
in March.
Mayor Rick Kowalczyk and Vice Mayor
Debbie Ruddock agree the council should
protect citizens against the harmful effects
of secondhand smoke, but the two had varying opinions on how to achieve this common goal.
We came from a lot of different places and
I am keenly interested in banning smoking
from public parks, Kowalczyk said. I
think its appropriate, especially where
children are present. Were also looking at
multi-tenant dwellings and there was a
Comment on
or share this story at
diversity of opinions on that, so we do need
to have some more discussion. My opinion
is that its unacceptable for one persons
behavior, although legal, to influence
another.
Ruddock said she wanted to focus on
expanding public places the ordinance
would cover, such as sidewalks and beaches
under the citys jurisdiction a ban helping protect the environment and reduce children from being exposed to the behavior.
Yet because single-family homeowners
would be allowed to smoke on their properties, Ruddock said she was concerned including multi-family dwellings would bring up
issues of equity.
My feeling is most of the social impacts
from secondhand smoke happen in public
areas and outdoor areas generally. And thats
where our attention should be, Ruddock
said. The problem I had with prohibiting
smoking inside multi-family dwellings is
youre saying someone who can afford a
single-family home can smoke on their
property, but not people who live in multifamily dwellings. So it raises the issue of
income, class, etc. I think we need to be
very cognizant of equity issues and distributing the burden fairly.
Concerned by reports from residents in
local senior housing complexes, Ruddock
said smoking is already supposed to be prohibited there and perhaps the city could
work with the nonprofits managers to
ensure rules are being enforced.
Per a request from Councilwoman Marina
Fraser, Gallogly said he doesnt plan on
including mobile home parks, which arent
classified as either single-family homes or
multi-family dwellings, in the next draft
ordinance.
Although California State Parks has jurisdiction over many of the local beaches such
as the popular Francis State Beach off Kelly
Avenue, Ruddock said the city should do
what it can to deter cigarette butts from turning into litter that pollutes the environment
or is digested by wildlife.
Both Ruddock and Kowalczyk said they
want to discourage children from witnessing
others smoke.
Theres an acute health issue, but theres
also the issue of modeling behavior. So if
were concerned about young people smoking, unless their parents are smoking,
where theyre going to see smoking behavior modeled is outdoors, Ruddock said.
One area the council was slated to discuss
further but didnt, was the concept of prohibiting cigarettes from being sold in pharmacies. Currently, only Rite Aid in Half
Moon Bay would be affected by this.
If the council moves to regulate the sale of
cigarettes, it would join Daly City as the
only other in the county to do so.
We applaud Half Moon Bay for taking

initial steps to address the continuing issue of exposure to
secondhand smoke in multi-unit residence, and now for joining Daly City on the forefront of removing tobacco products
from pharmacies, Dr. Scott Morrow, San Mateo County
health officer said in an email. As a result of more cities taking steps to protect residents from secondhand smoke, our
county has increasingly lowered our smoking rates over the
past several years.
Various cities have crafted their own ordinances that are
more stringent than state regulations such as Belmont,
Burlingame, San Mateo, South San Francisco, Foster City,
Daly City, Millbrae, Hillsborough, Atherton, East Palo Alto,
San Carlos and unincorporated portions of the county,
according to Health System officials.
Gallogly said he expects to return with another draft ordinance and is hopeful the council will provide more firm direction as well as a consensus, on how to proceed in March.
Kowalczyk said hes confident city officials will join others in the county to reduce residents and visitors exposure to
secondhand smoke.
We have every intention of creating an ordinance for the
city around where and how people can smoke, Kowalczyk
said. But weve got a lot more discussion to have on this. I
expect a bit of a menu of topics to come back to us then well
craft our ordinance around that.

Man pleads no contest to robbery

By Scott Morris
BAY CITY NEWS SERVICE
A man charged with putting a knife to a

Walgreens clerks throat while he stole
painkillers and syringes in San Mateo last
year was sentenced to five years in prison on
Tuesday, prosecutors said.
Tommy Ray Evans, 27, entered a no contest
plea to two counts of robbery and one count
of false imprisonment in the courtroom of
Judge Elizabeth Lee on Tuesday and was
immediately sentenced to five years in
prison, according to the San Mateo County
District Attorneys Office.
Evans was accused of robbing the
Walgreens at 4070 S. El Camino Real on the
afternoon of Sept. 22, 2015. Prosecutors said
he walked into the store just before 1 p.m.,
jumped over the pharmacy counter, grabbed a
clerk and put a knife to her throat.
He ordered four of the womans co-workers
to gather a bottle of Dilaudid pain medication
and a box of syringes. The manager complied
with his demands and Evans then ran from the
store, prosecutors said.
The robbery was seen on the stores surveillance video and he was caught two days
later as he got off a Caltrain commuter
train, prosecutors said.

Police said the tattoos
on Evans hands and face
helped investigators identify him. He was a resident
of Tampa, Florida, and had
only been in California
for a few weeks when he
committed the robbery.
Prosecutors had initialTommy Evans ly charged Evans with
five counts of kidnapping
in the course of a robbery, which could have
landed him a sentence of life in prison without parole if convicted. Evans attorney,
Steven Chase, said prosecutors had initially
overcharged the case but that the five-year
sentence was worthy of the crime.
The crime itself is horrible, and the
woman held at knifepoint was traumatized
by the ordeal, Chase said.
But Evans is really a nice kid. Hes a drug
addict, and had been trying to clean himself
up, but was depressed and committed the robbery in an effort to feel better, Chase said.

California home sales surge in

December, capping strong year
By Elliot Spagat
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN DIEGO California home sales

surged in December, capping a year of steady
sales growth and modest price gains, a
research firm said Wednesday.
The median price of new and existing single-family homes and condominiums reached
$415,000, up 0.6 percent from $412,500 in
November and up 7.8 percent from $385,000
in December 2014, CoreLogic Inc. said. It
was the 46th straight month of annual price
gains in percentage terms, though increases
have been single-digit for nearly two years.
Overall the story, especially in
California, is we continue to slow down, but
its actually not a bad thing, said Svenja
Gudell, chief economist at Zillow. Were
reaching more sustainable levels of home
value appreciation.
There were 40,230 homes sold in
California during December, up 26.8 percent
from November and up 12.6 percent from
December 2014.
The sales spike followed a steep decline in
November. Federal requirements introduced
in October that gave borrowers more time to
review loan estimates may have delayed
some sales from November to December,
CoreLogic analyst Andrew LePage said.
December is typically a stronger month
01-31-2016
than November as buyers and sellers seek to

wrap up purchases by the end of the year for
tax and other reasons, LePage said.
The results ended the year on a strong note,
with the number of homes sold in California
during 2015 rising 8.2 percent from 2014.
Analysts credit a relatively strong economy
and low interest rates, though tight supplies
and lack of affordability kept a lid on sales.
Less expensive, inland markets notably
Contra Costa and Solano counties in the San
Francisco Bay Area helped drive sales in
2015, LePage said.
Supplies remained unusually thin. The
California Association of Realtors says there
was a 2.8-month supply of single-family
homes in California in December, well below
what is considered normal supply of five to
seven months.
California is very hard-hit by tightness at
the bottom end of the market, Zillows
Gudell said. Thats where weve seen the
tightest inventory.
In the San Francisco Bay Area, the median
sales price climbed to $655,000 in
December, up 0.8 percent from $650,000 in
November and up 12.9 percent from
$580,000 in December 2014, CoreLogic
said. There were 7,876 sales in the ninecounty region, up 26.5 percent from
November and up 17.4 percent from
December 2014.

NOAA, NASA: 2015 was Earths

hottest year by a wide margin
By Seth Borenstein
WASHINGTON Last year wasnt

just the Earths hottest year on record
it left a century of high temperature
marks in the dust.
The National Oceanic Atmospheric
Administration and NASA announced
Wednesday that 2015 was by far the
hottest year in 136 years of record
keeping. For the most part, scientists
at the agencies and elsewhere blamed
man-made global warming, with a
boost from El Nino.
NOAA said 2015s temperature was
58.62 degrees Fahrenheit (14.79
degrees Celsius), passing 2014 by a
record margin of 0.29 degrees. Thats
1.62 degrees above the 20th-century
average. NASA, which measures differently, said 2015 was 0.23 degrees
warmer than the record set in 2014 and
1.6 degrees above 20th century average.
Because of the wide margin over
2014, NASA calculated that 2015 was a
record with 94 percent certainty, more
than double the certainty it had last
year when announcing 2014 as a
record. NOAA put the number at above
99 percent or virtually certain,
said Tom Karl, director of NOAAs
National Centers for Environmental
Information.
For the first time Earth is 1 degree
Celsius (1. 8 degrees Fahrenheit)
warmer than it was in pre-industrial
times, NOAA and NASA said. Thats a
key milestone because world leaders
have set a threshold of trying to avoid
warming of 1.5 or degrees Celsius
above pre-industrial times.
Because of the pace of rising temperatures, we dont have very far to go to

reach 1.5, Karl said.
But 1.5 or 2 degrees are not magic
numbers and were already seeing the
impacts of global warming, said
NASA Goddard Institute of Space
Studies director Gavin Schmidt.
This trend will continue; it will
continue because we understand why
its happening, Schmidt said. Its
happening because the dominant force
is carbon dioxide from burning of
fossil fuels like coal, oil and gas.
Although 2015 is now the hottest on
record, it was the fourth time in 11
years that Earth broke annual marks
for high temperature.
Its getting to the point where
breaking record is the norm, Texas
Tech climate scientist Katharine
Hayhoe said. Its almost unusual

when were not breaking a record.
December 2015 was the 10th month
last year that set a monthly warmth
record, with only January and April not
hitting high marks.
Thats the first time weve seen
that, said NOAAs Karl.
In December, the globe was 2
degrees Fahrenheit warmer than normal, beating the old record set in 2014
by more than a half a degree, NOAA
calculated.
Earth has broken monthly heat
records 34 times since 2000. The last

Evidence points to ninth planet on solar system edge

By Marcia Dunn
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. The

solar system may have a ninth planet
after all.
This one is 5,000 times bigger than
outcast Pluto and billions of miles farther away, say scientists who presented good evidence for a long-hypothesized Planet X on Wednesday.
The gas giant is thought to be
almost as big as its nearest planetary
neighbor Neptune, quite possibly
with rings and moons. Its so distant
that it would take a mind-blowing
10,000 to 20,000 years to circle the
sun.
Planet 9, as the pair of California
Institute of Technology researchers
calls it, hasnt been spotted yet. They
base their prediction on mathematical
and computer modeling, and anticipate its discovery via telescope within five years or less.
The two reported their research
Wednesday in the Astronomical
Journal because they want people to

help them look for it.
We could have stayed quiet and quietly spent the next five years searching the skies ourselves and hoping to
find it. But I would rather somebody
find it sooner, than me find it later,
astronomer Mike Brown told the
Associated Press.
I want to see it. I want to see what
it looks like. I want to understand
where it is, and I think this will help.
Brown and planetary scientist
Konstantin Batygin feel certain about
their prediction, which at first seemed
unbelievable to even them.
For the first time in more than 150
years, theres good evidence that the
planetary census of the solar system is
incomplete, Batygin said, referring
to Neptunes discovery as Planet 8.
Once its detected, Brown insists
there will be no Pluto-style planetary
debate. Brown ought to know; hes the
so-called Pluto killer who helped lead
the charge against Plutos planetary
status in 2006. (Once Planet 9, Pluto
is now officially considered a dwarf

planet.)
THIS is what we mean when we say
the word planet, Brown said.
Brown and Batygin believe its big
10 times more massive than Earth
and unlike Pluto, dominates its cosmic neighborhood. Pluto is a gravitational slave to Neptune, they pointed
out.
Another scientist, Alan Stern, said
hes withholding judgment on the
planet prediction. He is the principal
scientist for NASAs New Horizons
spacecraft, which buzzed Pluto last
summer in the first-ever visit from
Planet Earth. He still sees Pluto as a
real planet not a second-class
dwarf.
This kind of thing comes around
every few years. To date, none of those
predicts have been borne out by discoveries, Stern said in an email
Wednesday. Id be very happy if the
Brown-Batygin were the exception to
the rule, but well have to wait and see.
Prediction is not discovery.

Palin joins Trump in call to
make America great again
TULSA, Okla. Conservative firebrand Sarah Palin joined
Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump in Oklahoma
Wednesday as part of her endorsement
pledge in the increasingly intense race for
the GOP nomination.
Are you all ready to work to make
America great again? Palin asked a crowd
of thousands packed into an arena at Oral
Roberts University in Tulsa, Oklahoma,
echoing Trumps campaign mantra.
Palin, who was absent from Trumps

Sarah Palin
Iowa, despite an expected appearance,
rejoined the Trump campaign in Tulsa,
warming up the crowd ahead of the candidates speech. But
Palin also struck a personal tone, alluding to problems her
son and other returning military vets endure when returning to
civilian life and suggesting that President Barack Obamas
lack of support for veterans was related.
Its kind of the elephant in the room, she began, addressing her familys struggle.
Oregon governor calls on

feds to act against armed group
SALEM, Ore. Oregons governor expressed anger
Wednesday over federal authorities handling of the occupation of a national wildlife refuge by an
armed group and said she intends to bill
the U.S. government for what the occupation is costing state taxpayers.
Gov. Kate Brown said federal officials
must move quickly to end the occupation
and hold all of the wrongdoers accountable.
The residents of Harney County have
been overlooked and underserved by federKate Brown al officials response thus far. I have conveyed these very grave concerns directly
to our leaders at the highest levels of our government: the
U.S. Department of Justice and the White House, she said at
a news conference.
More than 1,000 tested for

tuberculosis in rural Alabama
MARION, Ala. Tuberculosis, a global scourge, has mostly been eradicated in the United States, but minorities and
poor people who lack regular health care remain vulnerable.
Marion, the town where Coretta Scott King was raised, is
just that kind of community: the seat of Alabamas poorest
county, where 47 percent live in poverty and the per-capita
annual income is just $13,000.
Spurred by two tuberculosis deaths last year, Alabama public health officials tried reaching out in Marion, and were
mostly ignored or turned away. Many people seemed suspicious and unenthusiastic about providing blood samples to
the government.

Staff turmoil shakes

powerful California
Coastal Commission
By Michael R. Blood
Looking ahead to March, College Board says the revamped SAT exam is more representative of what students
study in high school and the skills they need to succeed in college and afterward.
Last run of current SAT version this

week; new one to debut in March
WASHINGTON The current

version of the SAT college
entrance exam has its final run
this weekend, when hundreds of
thousands of students nationwide
will sit, squirm or stress through
the nearly four-hour reading, writing and math test. A new revamped
version debuts in March.
Sixteen-year-old Alex Cohen, a
junior at the Miami Country Day
School in Florida, thinks hes
solid on math, but hes been studiously cramming on vocabulary
words to get ready for the exam.

I dont want to study for the
new one, so hopefully Ill do well
on this one, he said.
Alex said his college adviser
was worried about students being
guinea pigs for the new SAT that
rolls out March 5 and told him to
focus on Saturdays exam. Theres
a lot of vocabulary on this test so
Ive been trying to memorize as
many words as I can per day, said
Alex, who wants to study business
and finance in college.
The College Board, the nonprofit organization that owns the SAT,
says more than 351,000 students

registered to take the Jan. 23 test.
Thats a nearly 10 percent increase
over the number of students registered for last Januarys exam. A
major snowstorm could force cancellations along some parts of the
East Coast. Make-up sessions
would be offered with the current
exam.
Looking ahead to March,
College Board says the revamped
exam is more representative of
what students study in high school
and the skills they need to succeed
in college and afterward.
LOS ANGELES The powerful

California agency that manages
development along the states
fabled coastline may oust its top
executive soon, setting up a battlefront between environmentalists and developers who frequently
clash over projects large and
small.
The potential shake-up at the
California Coastal Commission
raises questions about the direction of an agency often caught in
the friction between property
owners and conservation along
the 1, 100-mile coast large
stretches of it prized for pristine
beaches edged by jutting cliffs.
The commissions chairman,
Steve Kinsey, notified Executive
Director Charles Lester in a letter
released Wednesday that the panel
will consider whether to fire him
next month. Lester has held the
post since 2011, and no reason
was given for the proposed dismissal.
Kinsey
did
not return a
phone call or
email seeking
co mmen t .
However, environmental
activists suspect some comCharles Lester mission members want to
push out Lester to make way for
management that would be more
welcoming to development.
Susan Jordan of the California
Coastal Protection Network said
Lesters ouster would leave the
agency in turmoil and intimidate
its staff.
Its not just about the homeowner who wants to build on the
bluff. We are talking about billion-dollar projects, Jordan said.
The commission has been at the
center of fierce battles over beach
access in celebrity enclaves, and
its facing a lawsuit after banning
SeaWorld from breeding captive
killer whales at its San Diego
marine park.
Lawmakers review jobs and projects in California energy measure

Caltrans recruiting drivers for

study of mileage-based fees
LOS ANGELES The California

Department of Transportation is recruiting motorists to test ways of reporting
how far they drive to study the feasibility
of replacing the state gas tax with
mileage fees.
The California Road Charge Pilot
Program created by the Legislature in
2014 will need 5,000 volunteers.
Will Kempton, executive director of the
California Transportation Commission,
said that the gas tax is outdated and no

longer capable of meeting future transportation revenue needs.
The pilot is an excellent opportunity
to study road charging and should provide
the Legislature with the data it needs to
better determine whether and how this
idea might work, he said.
According to Caltrans, the 36-cents-agallon state gas tax generates only
enough revenue to fund $2.3 billion of $8
billion worth of highway repair and
maintenance that is needed every year.
SACRAMENTO California officials

have approved $1.1 billion in spending so far
from a voter-approved initiative that closed a
corporate tax loophole to generate billions of
dollars for energy efficiency projects at
California schools and community colleges,
but most of the work is not completed,
Senators learned at a hearing Wednesday.
The vast majority of spending from
Proposition 39, about $973 million, has
been allocated for K-12 schools, which
have more than 9,000 projects in the works
that are projected to save $38 million annually in energy costs, according to the
California Energy Commission.

Most of the work is in the pipeline, with
only 95 completed, testified the commissions executive director, Rob Oglesby.
The initiative was sold to voters in 2012 as
a way to generate billions for green energy
projects at California schools and create
11,000 jobs each year. The Associated Press
reported last August that less than $300 million had been distributed to schools and only
1,700 jobs created in three years.
The state Legislative Analysts Office also
reported Wednesday that Proposition 39 has
brought in an estimated $780 million annually, lower than the $1 billion or more initially
forecast.

Anxiety clouds the air

as annual Davos World
Economic Forum begins
By Pan Pylas
and Carlo Piovano
DAVOS, Switzerland As
stock markets around the world
took another dive amid concerns
over plunging oil prices and
Chinas slowdown, anxiety
clouded the air in the Swiss ski
resort of Davos, where the World
Economic Forums annual meeting kicked off Wednesday.
With Europes main indexes
down another 3 percent or so and
many around the world officially
in bear territory, powerful global
executives in Davos voiced a
high degree of concern over the
outlook for the global economy.
Some said the recent turbulence in
financial markets was akin to a
meltdown, while others sought
to describe it as a natural adjustment.
The new normal is a lowgrowth world, said Martin
Sorrell, chairman of U.K.-based
advertising giant WPP.
Whatever the description,
uncertainty and the recent turn in
global growth fortunes dominated discussion at the 45-year-old
annual gathering of political and
business leaders in the Alps.
Sorrell also worried that toolow inflation in many parts of the
world was reducing the pricing
power of companies, which they
need to generate the returns needed to invest and boost growth.

Instead of using their cash to
invest in projects to promote
growth, companies are increasingly sitting tight and often
rewarding shareholders with big
dividend payments and buybacks.
And as for consumers, Sorrell
said they remain wary nearly
eight years after the global financial crisis saw the collapse of
many banking groups and triggered the deepest recession since
World War II.
That wariness is why consumers dont appear to be using
the windfall garnered from low oil
prices. Money saved at the pump
could be used for spending elsewhere, but that doesnt appear to
be happening now.
Min Zhu, Deputy Managing
Director of the International
Monetary Fund, which on
Tuesday cut its global growth
forecast, said global political
uncertainties are behind much of
the recent market volatility, and
the reason for companies reluctance to invest $7 trillion or so
of cash lying in the banks.
Tensions in the Middle East are
among those uncertainties. Irans
foreign
minister,
speaking
Wednesday to the Associated
Press at Davos, denounced new
U.S. sanctions over Irans ballistic missile program and warned
that warmer diplomatic ties with
REUTERS

Annual Meeting 2016 of the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland.
Washington remain far away
despite a landmark nuclear deal.
To boost global growth, Zhu
said its paramount that governments make deep changes to
things like pension systems and
labor markets, given that theres
little room on interest rates and
budgets are stretched.
Paul Singer, CEO of hedge fund
Elliot Management, blames a
very distorted policy mix following 2008 for the current turmoil, because it saw the burden
put heavily on the shoulders of
monetary policy. His suggestion
to help soften the impact of future
shocks is to make the banking
sector more resilient and transparent.
The plunge in oil prices was

also identified as a growing threat
to the worlds goal to reduce
emissions.
The head of the International
Energy Agency, which advises
oil-importing countries, said the
drop in costs for oil and gas
threatens to reduce governments
incentives to improve energy
efficiency in transportation
networks, for example as well
as the installation of renewable
energy plants.
Fatih Birol says energy efficiency has been driven largely
not so much by environmental
concerns but an interest in saving
money, which is disappearing as
fossil fuels become cheaper.
World governments agreed in

Paris in December to limit the
rise in global temperatures, a
move that will require a ramp-up
in the amount of energy that
comes from renewable sources.
Birol warned a panel of energy
experts gathered in Davos: For
renewables, life will not be
easy.
The head of the International
Chamber of Commerce, John
Danilovich, told the Associated
Press in Davos that 2016 has
already been very unsettling
for global businesses, and adapting investment to meet loweremissions goals will be among
several struggles for companies
this year.
Senate Dems want vote on

religious test for immigrants

deputies.
A hiker who saw the body at the bottom of
the cliff reported the incident at 3:53 p.m.
Sheriffs deputies and Cal Fire responded
to an area along Highway 1 roughly 100
yards south of the Tom Lantos Tunnel around
4 p.m., according to spokesman Salvador
Zuno.
Firefighters with cliff-rescue training
hiked roughly 150 feet down the cliff, located the body and pronounced the victim
deceased at the scene at 4:46 p.m. Hes

Its not clear whether the victim fell down
the cliff or was hiking near the area where he
was found more than half way down to the
beach. Zuno said that preliminary information indicates there are no signs of foul play
in the mans death.

Islamic State razing of Iraq monastery condemned

By Martha Menddoza,
Maya Alleruzzo and Bram Jassen
IRBIL, Iraq The Obama Administration

and the Vatican condemned the Islamic State
group Wednesday for razing Iraqs oldest
Christian monastery, a 1400-year-old structure that survived assaults by nature and man
for centuries before it was deliberately
destroyed by extremists.
At the United Nations, UNESCO Director
General Irina Bokova said reducing St.
Elijahs monastery in Mosul to a field of
rubble was malicious and misguided. The
Associated Press confirmed the news with
exclusive satellite images published early
Wednesday.
Despite their relentless crimes, extremists will never be able to erase history,
said Bokova, who called the demolition a
war crime. It also reminds us how terrified
by history the extremists are, because
understanding the past undermines the pretexts they use to justify these crimes and
exposes them as expressions of pure hatred
and ignorance.
St. Elijahs monastery on the outskirts
of Mosul was a place of worship recent-

niches and prayed in the cool chapel.
The Greek letters chi and rho, representi n g t h e fi rs t t wo l et t ers o f Ch ri s t s
name, were carved near the entrance.

During a press briefing in Washington on
Wednesday, State Department spokesman
Mark Toner said the Obama Administration
condemned the destruction by IS. They
continue to carry out these kinds of
depraved acts, and it really symbolizes or

exemplifies their bankrupt ideology, he
said.
In his office in exile in Irbil, Iraq, the
Rev. Paul Thabit Habib, 39, stared quietly at
before- and after-images of the monastery
that once perched on a hillside above his
hometown of Mosul. Shaken, he flipped
back to his own photos for comparison.
I cant describe my sadness, he said in
Arabic. Our Christian history in Mosul is
being barbarically leveled. We see it as an
attempt to expel us from Iraq, eliminating
and finishing our existence in this land.
The Islamic State group, which broke
from al-Qaida and now controls large parts
of Iraq and Syria, has killed thousands of
civilians and forced out hundreds of thousands of Christians, threatening a religion
that has endured in the region for 2,000
years. Along the way, its fighters have
destroyed buildings and ruined historical
and culturally significant structures they
consider contrary to their interpretation of
Islam.
Those who knew the monastery wondered
about its fate after the extremists swept
through in June 2014 and largely cut communications to the area.
Deadly Pakistani school attack raises security questions

By Riaz Khan and Zarar Khan
CHARSADDA, Pakistan Once again,

Islamic militants stormed a school in northeastern Pakistan in a deadly attack that lasted
for hours. And once again, the blood of students and teachers stained classrooms and
hallways, raising questions about whether
security forces are able to protect the countrys educational institutions from extremists.
At least 20 people were killed and 23 were
wounded Wednesday in the assault at Bacha

Khan University in Charsadda before the four
gunmen were slain and the military declared
an end to the siege. Two teachers were among
the dead, including a chemistry professor
who was praised as a hero for shooting back
at the attackers and allowing some students
to escape.
The university attack was grimly reminiscent of the December 2014 massacre at an
army public school in nearby Peshawar that
killed 150, mostly children.
A breakaway faction of the Taliban took
responsibility for the university attack,

although a spokesman for the larger Taliban
organization, led by Mullah Fazlullah,
denied having anything to do with it and
called it un-Islamic.
The violence shows how vulnerable
schools remain in Pakistan, where extremists have sought to prevent Western-style
education, especially for girls.
Malala Yousafzai was awarded the Nobel
Peace Prize after the teenager was shot in the
head by a Taliban gunman in 2012 outside
her school in the Swat Valley because of her
vocal support for gender equality and education for girls. She said she was heartbroken by the latest attack.
Several schools were closed last weekend
after intelligence suggested militants were
planning an attack, according to Muhammed
Amir Rana, director of the private Pakistan
Institute for Peace Studies. A provincial government spokesman said they were closed as
part of a security drill.
After the Peshawar attack, the government
promised to set up a joint Intelligence
Directorate, but that has not happened yet.

Business brief
Wal-Mart to give pay raises to most of its workers
NEW YORK The vast majority of Wal-Marts U.S.
employees will get raises as part of the worlds largest retailers previously announced commitment to invest in its
workforce as it faces pressure from labor-backed groups and
seeks to retain workers in a tighter labor force.
Wal-Mart Stores Inc. on Wednesday said more than 1.2
million U.S. hourly workers will get wage increases on Feb.
20. The company, which is the largest U.S. private employer with 1.4 million total workers, also said it will provide
free, basic short-term disability to full-time hourly workers.
And it will start allowing workers to accrue paid time off as
they earn it.
The moves mark the biggest changes Wal-Mart has made
in its efforts to offer better wages and benefits to its workers.
Last February, Wal-Mart announced that it would raise base
employee wages for 500,000 workers to $9 an hour last
year, with plans to move it to $10 per hour, next month. The
company also said new entry level workers hired after Jan.
1, 2016 would start at $9 per hour, but move to at least $10
an hour after completing a six-month training program.
Then last June, Wal-Mart said it would raise starting wages
for more than 100,000 U.S. department managers.
NEW YORK U.S. stocks slumped

Wednesday as the price of oil suffered
its worst one-day drop since
September, and the Standard & Poors
500 index fell to its lowest level in
almost two years.
Investors are worried that low oil
prices mean theres not that much
demand for fuel. That would be a sign
that growth in the global economy is
slowing down. Stocks in the U. S.
started sharply lower following widespread selling overseas, and looked
like they were headed for huge losses.
At one point the Dow Jones industrial
average fell as much as 565 points.
After a late recovery, the Dow closed
down 249.28 points, or 1.6 percent,
to 15,766.74. The S&P 500 index fell
22 points, or 1. 2 percent, to
1,859.33. That is its lowest closing
price since April 2014.
The Nasdaq composite, which
briefly turned positive in the afternoon, lost 5.26 points, or 0.1 percent, to 4,471.69. The Dow is the lowest its been since August, and the
Nasdaq is at its lowest since October
2014.
U.S. crude dropped $1.91, or 6.7 percent, to $26.55 a barrel in New York.
That was the biggest one-day plunge

for U.S. oil since Sept. 1. U.S. crude is
down 28 percent in 2016 and is trading
at its lowest level since May 2003.
Brent crude, a benchmark for international oils, fell 88 cents, or 3.1 percent, to $27.88 a barrel in London.
James Liu, global market strategist
for JPMorgan Funds, said demand for
oil hasnt fallen off and the global
economy remains relatively healthy.
But companies are still producing a
great deal of oil, so tremendous stockpiles have accumulated. While companies started shutting down drilling rigs
and wells in late 2014 after prices
started to decline, production of oil
didnt change much.
Liu predicted production will keep
falling and oil prices will stabilize in
the middle of 2016, then start rising.
I think that will alleviate some market concerns, Liu said.
The falling price of oil is bad news
for companies that drill for oil and sell
it, and those companies have slashed
jobs and cut back on work to reduce
their costs. Banks have lent billions of
dollars to energy companies to fund
their work, and investors are worried
the banks wont get their money back.
Its good news, however, for car owners
and for companies that use a lot of fuel.
Energy stocks were pelted. Devon
Energy lost $1.89, or 8 percent, to

$21.49 and Exxon Mobil sank $3.22,
or 4.2 percent, to $73.18. Financial
stocks were also hit because banks
could lose billions on loans to oil and
gas companies. Bank of America lost
55 cents, or 3.9 percent, to $13.69.
Gold and U.S. government bonds,
traditional safe havens, rose in value as
investors shifted money out of stocks.
Overseas markets also fell. Japans
Nikkei index entered a bear market,
down 20 percent from its peak in June,
and European benchmarks lost
between 3 and 4 percent.
Jack Ablin, chief investment officer
of BMO Private Bank, said he thinks
stocks will fall a bit further, but he
doesnt expect a global collapse.
Ablin said that for years, investors
bought stocks without too much regard
for risk. He said investors felt that if
things ever got too bad, the Federal
Reserve would help prop up the market.
Investors were comfortable taking
outsize risks, not because they had
earnings to fall back on, but because
they had the Fed to fall back on,
Ablin said. So stocks made huge gains
in the years since the financial crisis
while the U.S. economy churned out
years of steady but unspectacular
growth.
Cheap oil, good for consumers,

is slamming stocks. But why?
By Ken Sweet and David Koenig

Stocks are having their worst start to
a year in history in part because of a
rapid plunge in the price of oil. The
price of crude is down 28 percent this
year already, which in turn has dragged
down energy company shares in the
Standard & Poors 500 index by 13
percent, which has helped pull the
overall index down 9 percent.
This even though low oil prices
and the cheap prices for gasoline and
other fuels that result are wonderful
for consumers and many companies.
It seems ironic that in the run-up to
the global financial crisis we were
worried about oil prices being too
high in 2007 and 2008. Now were
worried about them being too low,
said Julian Jessop, head of commodities research with London-based
researchers Capital Economics Ltd.
The drastic drop in oil and stock
prices stands in contrast with a U.S.
economy that, on the whole, is doing
pretty well. U.S employers created
292,000 jobs in December, and few
economists see the economy sliding
into recession.
What experts think is going on

WHY IS OIL SO LOW?
Because there is so much of it.
A long run of high oil prices
inspired drillers to develop new
techniques and to go to new places
to find more oil, and they
succeeded. In the U.S. improved oil
drilling technologies known
generally as fracking have added
more oil to the global market than
the total production of any other
nation in OPEC other than Saudi
Arabia.
Producers in the U.S. and abroad
havent cut back production very
much, despite the low prices, and
now the lifting of international
sanctions against Iran could send
more oil flowing into markets that
are already awash in crude.
U.S. stockpiles are at their highest
level in at least 80 years, and the
International Energy Agency
predicts that during the first half of
this year global oil supply could
outstrip demand by 1.5 million
barrels per day.
Demand for crude has been
growing steadily, but that may not
last because economic growth in
China, the worlds second-largest
oil consumer after the U.S., is
slowing.
WHY DO LOW OIL PRICES

HURT THE STOCK MARKET?
Oil company profits are
plummeting, so oil company shares
are plummeting, and that is
dragging down the whole market.
Analysts estimate that profit for all
S&P 500 companies in total are on
track to be down a recession-like

5.8 percent for 2015. But if energy
companies were removed from
that figure, S&P 500 profits would
be up a very healthy 5.7 percent for
the full year.
That profit drop directly leads to
lower share prices that drag down
entire indexes. Two of the biggest
oil companies in the world, Exxon
and Chevron, are part of the 30member Dow Jones industrial
average. Of the 20 biggest share
price losers in the S&P 500 this year,
13 are energy companies.
Investors are also selling shares of
companies that may have
exposure to the oil industry, like
certain banks. And the price of oil
has now fallen so low that investors
are also worried that it could mean
global economic growth is much
weaker than expected, which could
hurt all companies.
ARENT LOWER OIL

PRICES A GOOD THING
FOR THE ECONOMY?
It depends on why prices are lower.
If they fall because new supplies
have been found, it usually helps
the broader economy, and markets
held up fairly well during oils big
slide from over $100 a barrel in
2014 to under $50 a barrel last year.
In the long run, lower oil prices
should be positive or at worst
neutral for the world economy
because all theyre really doing is
transferring income from oil
producers to oil consumers,Jessop
says.
But this latest plunge in prices to

under $30 a barrel has investors
worried that oil prices are falling
because global growth is slowing,
as businesses and consumers in
many developing countries,
particularly China, cut back on
spending. Bruce Kasman, chief
economist at JPMorgan Chase, says
that steep drops in oil prices have
historically been a sign of a
weakening global economy.
Also, U.S. consumers have remained
cautious about spending the
money they arent putting into
their gas tanks, which limits the
benefit to the broader economy.
Americans saved 5.5 percent of
their incomes in November, up
nearly a full percentage point from
a year earlier.
Kasman estimates that U.S.
spending grew at a tepid pace of
just 1.5 percent in the final three
months of last year. Theres no
doubt that the consumer spending
growth figures for the U.S., Europe
and Japan have disappointed, he
said.
Some of that likely reflected a
temporary drag from warm
weather, as Americans spent less
on winter clothing and utilities.That
could turn around in the first
quarter, giving the economy a lift,
Kasman said.
Delta Air Lines told investors this
week that bookings for this spring
are ahead of last years pace
because cheaper gasoline means
consumers have more money.
U.S. consumer prices fell 0.1 percent in December

By Martin Crutsinger
WASHINGTON U.S. consumer

prices fell in December and rose by the
smallest amount in seven years in
2015, reflecting the toll of slumping
energy costs.
Consumer prices slipped 0.1 percent
last month after a flat reading in
November, the Labor Department
reported Wednesday.
For the entire year, overall inflation
was up just 0.7 percent, even smaller
than a 0.8 percent rise in 2014. Both
years were heavily influenced by plunging energy prices. It was the weakest
annual increase since a 0.1 percent rise
in 2008.
Core inflation, which excludes
volatile energy and food costs, edged up
0.1 percent in December. That was the

smallest monthly gain since August.
For the full year, core inflation was up
2.1 percent after a 1.6 percent rise in
2014.
Energy prices and a stronger dollar
have been major factors holding down
inflation.
The Federal Reserve, however, last
month boosted a key interest rate for
the first time in nine years, saying it
believed inflation would eventually
strengthen. The quarter-point increase
pushed the federal funds rate from near
zero to a range of 0.25 percent to 0.5
percent.
Fed officials have stressed that the
pace of future rate increases will be
heavily dependent on signs that inflation is beginning to accelerate closer to
the Feds target of 2 percent annual
price gains. But since the Fed met last

month, oil prices have declined further.
That suggests it might take even longer
for the Fed to hit its target.
For December, energy prices fell 2.4
percent and are down 14.9 percent for
the year. Food costs declined 0.2 percent and are up a modest 0.8 percent for
the year. The nationwide average for a
gallon of gasoline is down to $1.88, 12
cents lower than a month ago.
But some analysts see the uptick in
core inflation as a sign that inflation
outside of energy and food is beginning
to accelerate. The 2.1 percent rise in the
core for the 12 months ending in
December followed a 12-month rise of 2
percent in November. It was the largest
12-month gain in core prices since a
similar 2.1 percent increase in July
2012.

Scots make case for No. 1 Soccer
heating up
By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
When the South City boys soccer team

traveled to Belmont to take on Carlmont in
a Peninsula Athletic League Bay Division
showdown, it was a game of contrasting
styles.
The Warriors like to possess the ball,
knock it around and then spring their attack.
Carlmont likes to use speed, defensive pressure and a physical style to grind opponents
into submission.
In the end, it was the Scots speed and
pressure that proved to be the difference.
Carlmonts Taran Sun ran down a ball headed
toward the corner, sent a cross to the front
of the goal and found Leo McBride, whose
diving header in the 75th minute proved to
be the difference in Carlmonts 1-0 win.
[We] play with a lot of passion. You want
to want the ball, said Carlmont coach Will
Stambaugh. You have to be willing to
take risks.
With the win, Carlmont (4-1 PAL Bay, 91-1 overall) moves into at least second
place in the Bay Division standings.
Aragon, which took on Sequoia Tuesday,
held a one point lead over Carlmont going
into Wednesdays games.
South City (3-1-1) suffered its rst league
loss of the season and it was a disappointment, considering the Warriors were coming
off a big 5-3 win over Menlo-Atherton last
Friday.
Carlmont started the game quickly, with a
number of forays into the South City defensive end. Carlmonts Dro Avetian appeared
to have a breakaway in the third minute, but
South City sweeper Alex Sanchez chased
Avetian down and cleared the ball away.
Slowly but surely, South City began to
turn the tide in its favor. They were moving
the ball around in the mideld before sending penetrating passes through the
Carlmont defense.
In the 12th minute, South City had their
best scoring opportunity go by the board.
After Carlmont failed to clear the ball out of
its defensive end, South Citys Alejandro
Venegas tapped the ball into space.

Carlmont side.

Jillienne Aguilera is

the standings until further notice, that
leaves four or five teams jockeying for

Menlo-Atherton boys soccer holds off Burlingame

By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
When the chips have been down for the

Menlo-Atherton boys soccer team this season, senior Ethan Oro has come up big time
and again.
Oros most recent heroics came in
Wednesdays 3-2 home win over
Burlingame. The Bears (4-1 PAL Bay, 8-2
overall) admittedly didnt play a perfect
game, as evidenced by their letting a 2-0
lead slip away when the Panthers tied it in
the second half.

But when M-As firstyear head coach Leo
Krupnik needed a big
goal, he turned to Oro for
a penalty kick in the
68th minute. And the redhot, third-year varsity
forward delivered his second goal of the game for
Ethan Oro
the winning score.
Hes been in very good shape as of late
and you want to give it to the guy who has
the confidence, Krupnik said. I felt he was

the right guy at that time.
It is the second time this season Oro has
delivered a game-winner for M-A. In a 2-1
victory Jan. 8 against Hillsdale, the Bears
trailed 1-0 in the first half before Oro scored
a game-tying goal in the first half and converted the go-ahead score in the second.
Wednesday marked Oros second multigoal game of the season. He now has six
goals on the year. All things being equal
though, Oro said he would have preferred his
team to simply maintain the lead they
mounted in the first half.

I think we tried to dig deep, Oro said.
We started the game well but we started lagging. We got away from our game of possessing the ball a lot more.
M-A did have a strong showing through
most of the first half, before losing two key
players sophomore Nick Jaudeleit and
senior Kyle Smith to injuries. And

Warriors breeze past Bulls

By Andrew Seligman
CHICAGO Stephen Curry

scored 25 points, and the Golden
State Warriors made it look easy
again, beating the Chicago Bulls
125-94 on Wednesday night.
Curry tied a season high with 11
assists and grabbed seven
rebounds.
Klay Thompson added 20
points. Harrison Barnes scored
19, and the defending champions
simply outclassed Chicago after
embarrassing LeBron James and
the Cavaliers in Cleveland on
Monday night. The Warriors built
a big lead in the first quarter and
never were threatened after that,
improving their league-best road
record to 20-4.
Derrick Rose scored 29 and
Jimmy Butler added 23 points after
a slow start for Chicago. Pau Gasol
was a nonfactor with one point and
the Bulls missed 19 of 20 3-pointers on the way to their fifth loss in
seven games.
Two nights after they pounded
Cleveland in the arena where they
captured the championship last
spring, the Warriors wasted little
time seizing control in this one.
Playing in the shadows of a 72
banner commemorating the 199596 Bulls record-setting season,
the Warriors continued their
assault on the seemingly unattainable wins mark.
Golden State was trailing by one
midway through the first quarter
when a cutting Curry converted a
three-point play. Rose, who committed the foul, got subbed out
after a strong start. And in a flash,
the Warriors broke this one open.
They were up 34-18 going into
the second and led by as many as
21 before heading to the locker
room with a 63-44 cushion.
Curry had 15 points and seven
assists in the half. Barnes scored
11 and the Warriors simply put on

to 30 points in the paint.
Rose scored 21 for Chicago, but
the rest of the team combined for
just 23 points in the half. The
numbers barely describe how onesided this was.
There were comical moments
like when Chicagos ETwaun
Moore crashed to the floor in the
first quarter trying to defend a
crossover by Curry, who buried a
19-foot jumper. There was a neat
pass from Shaun Livingston to
Leandro Barbosa for a reverse
layup that made it 41-20 early in
the second. There was also a somewhat scary moment when the
Bulls Aaron Brooks tripped Rose,
sending him into Curry as they
raced out to defend a 3 from the
corner with 4:28 left in the half.

Broncos will have two key pieces back for Pats

DENVER Backslaps for the backups.

Thats all pass-rusher Von Miller and cornerback Chris Harris Jr. could provide the last time
the New England Patriots played the Denver
Broncos for the AFC championship.
The backbone of Denvers dominant defense
is ready for the rematch Sunday.
I was happy for my teammates then, Im
happy for my teammates now, Miller said.
But I have a chance to go in and affect the
game. Theres a little bit more that I can do
besides just cheer my guys on. And I plan to do
that.
Miller and Harris were out with ACL injuries
two years ago in the Broncos 26-16 win over
the Patriots, then watched helplessly from the
sideline two weeks later as Seattle destroyed
Denvers dismantled defense that was also missing defensive end Derek Wolfe in the Super
Bowl.
Denvers duo was eager to face Brady and Bill
Belichick, the best QB/coach combo in history
with a record 22 playoff wins, a year later when
the Broncos admittedly

overlooked the Colts and
never got that chance.
Not this time.
The top-seeded Broncos
(13-4) took care of
Pittsburgh and the secondseeded Patriots (13-4) beat
Kansas City, setting up a
rematch in the conference
Von Miller
championship, a 17th and
likely final meeting between Brady and Peyton
Manning.
Instead of providing moral support this time,
Miller and Harris get the chance to dethrone the
defending champs.
The Patriots come here, were the No. 1
seed, Miller said. Exactly how we had it before
but we get to play.
Also sitting out that conference championship two years ago was Patriots tight end
Rob Gronkowski, who had an injured knee courtesy of then-Browns safety T.J. Ward, now
delivering those big hits for these Broncos.
Both Ward (ankle) and Gronkowski (knee)
were knocked out of the game when these teams

met in snowy Denver on Nov. 29, a game the
Broncos won 30-24 in overtime.
Also sitting out that game was receiver Julian
Edelman, whos back in the Patriots loaded
lineup.
Both Gronkowski and Edelman had monster
games against the Chiefs. Edelman had 10
catches for 100 yards and Gronkowski had 83
yards and two touchdowns among his seven
receptions.
Miller realizes the task is a lot tougher this
weekend than it was two months ago.
We wouldnt want it any other way, Miller
said. Thats the beauty of playing in the
National Football League: Weve got great
players going against great players.
Instead of watching on crutches.
Harris displayed his usual bravado this week
even though hes dealing with a deeply bruised
left shoulder thats been bothering him for three
weeks.
We are a veteran group, a veteran secondary.
We have played against Brady tons of times. We
have played against their offense a billion
times, Harris said.

Harris drew Patriots fans ire this week by
telling ESPN that if he had to cover Gronkowski
1-on-1, hed have to take out the talented tight
ends knees. Gronkowski, who has a history of
knee injuries, responded with an off-color retort
on Twitter. Harris, however, wont face
Gronkowski 1-on-1. That task would go to Ward
or Aqib Talib.
Either way, Harris and Miller are just glad
theyll be suiting up for this one.
Miller, the second overall pick in 2012 who
is due for a huge pay raise in the offseason, and
Harris, an undrafted free agent whose first bonus
was $2,000 and his second one $10 million,
saw their paths intertwined after getting hurt in
2013.
They both had their knees fixed by Dr. James
Andrews in Pensacola, Florida, and they became
workout partners for six months. They reshaped
their bodies through organic weight loss and a
determination to take some stress off their
repaired ligaments. Harris dropped a dozen
pounds to 188 and Miller lost more than 25 to
get down to 245.

ers, Jaudeleit controlled it quickly and drew

Panthers goalie Lucas Flygare out. After
darting past Flygare, Jaudeleit walked in for
an easy empty-net goal.
M-A doubled its lead in the 17th minute
on a nice forward set. Smith sent in a crossfield pass taken by Oro at the right corner of
the penalty box. Oro flanked away from the
right post with a dribble before executing a
most impressive spin-kick, wheeling for a
cross-goal shot beyond the reach of the diving Flygare to give the Bears a 2-0 lead.
But Burlingame was able to get on the
board before halftime. After an excellent
chance that saw Allen receive a deep pass
and have a header punched out at the last second by Eisner, the Panthers earned a corner
kick. Burlingame cashed in on it, as Chris
Denney received the corner kick at the top
of the penalty box and sent a rocket into left
goal to cut M-As lead to 2-1.
Then midway through the second half,
Burlingame began mounting a more consistent offensive front.

Frankly, I thought we were outplaying
M-A, Burlingame head coach Jakob
Kirschenbaum said. But you cant underestimate a strong team like that.
Allen earned the game-tying goal by
muscling through two M-A defenders off the
left post deep in the penalty box. The senior
had to literally push his way past the second
one to earn a short strike to tie it 2-2.
Less than two minutes later, Allen nearly
gave the Panthers the lead on another great
chance. Burlingames Fernando Sanchez
exacted a cross pass into Allen, who controlled it at the same spot from where he
scored his previous goal. From a flat-footed
stance, Allen buzzed a crisp shot toward the
near post, but it wasnt quite tight enough,
allowing Eisner to deflect it with a diving
save.
One minute later, the dynamic M-A front
produced the penalty kick that proved the

game-winner. It was the 68th minute when
Bears sophomore Jean Claverie surged into
the keepers box looking to score, but got
pulled down from behind by the Burlingame
defense. The penalty sent Oro to the line to
give M-A the victory.

golden retriever, Henry, sat on Baalkes lap
for more than 2 1/2 hours and did some serious shedding.
They still struck a deal and discovered a
similar football vision.
Weve been working tirelessly to get the

49ers back to championship form, CEO
Jed York said. The first big step is hiring
the right head coach.
York doesnt plan on hiring another head
coach anytime soon, even if the turnaround
takes time, saying: Chips going to be
here for a long time. Period.
Before Jim Harbaughs last season in
2014, the 49ers reached three straight NFC
championship games and lost in the Super
Bowl following the 2012 season. Kelly
realizes the immediate challenge he faces
coaching in the NFC West against Seattles
Pete Carroll a former nemesis in the college game when Carroll was at USC and
Kelly at Oregon Arizonas Bruce Arians
and Rams coach Jeff Fisher.
Its an unbelievable standard, Kelly
said. Seattles been to the last two Super
Bowls. Bruce has a legitimate chance with
his team this year to go to it. ... The NFC
West is stacked. But that excites you.
Kelly is working to finalize his coordina-
tors, with Mike Vrabel expected to be in the

mix for the defensive job. Running backs
coach Tom Rathman has been retained.
Kelly plans to call the plays from the sidelines but doesnt plan to micromanage his
coaches.
It wasnt a pretty win, but well take it

and move on, Oro said.
The victory was a big bounce-back with
for the Bears. Currently tied for secondplace with 12 points in the Peninsula
Athletic League Bay Division with South
City, M-A fell to South City 5-3 last Friday,
after the Bears played most of the game with
10 players.
For the Panthers, the feeling was they let
their first league victory escape them.

He wont tolerate legal run-ins by the

49ers, a problem for this franchise in recent
years, saying its a privilege to play in
the NFL.
There are laws in this country for a reason and we need to adhere by those laws,
Kelly said.
Kelly said he is motivated by the Bay

Agassi: Match-fixing wasnt

on his radar when he played
By Howard Fendrich
Andre Agassi says match-fixing

in tennis never even made my
radar while he was on tour.
The eight-time Grand Slam title
winner, who retired from the sport
in 2006, said in a phone interview
with
the
As s o c i a t e d
Press that he
never had any
brush with the
sort of corruption that was
alleged
in
recent
media
reports and has
Andre Agassi
been the main
topic of conversation at the
Australian Open.
Agassi also said he hopes and
believes that tenniss leaders
will make sure match-fixing is not
happening nowadays.
I worry about that being a problem in any sport, because I think it
poses an existential threat to the
very fabric of what sports is
about, Agassi said. I think every
sport needs to take that incredibly
seriously.
The BBC and BuzzFeed News
published reports this week saying tennis authorities failed to
thoroughly investigate evidence
of match-fixing involving more
than a dozen players who have
ranked in the top 50 over the past
decade. No players were named in
the reports.
In 21 years I played professionally, I can say, either based on my
naiveti or my focus on trying to be
the best in the world, that it never
made my radar at any stage in
those 21 years, Agassi said. So I
Two-time Aussie champ

Victoria Azarenka has quickly dispatched another opponent at
Melbourne Park, defeating Danka
Kovinic of Montenegro 6-1, 6-2
in just over an hour.
The two-time Australian Open
dont know if I was unreachable,

untouchable or just purely in my
own world, but it never even made
my radar, whatsoever.
In Australia, where the years
first major tournament began
Monday, representatives of tenniss governing bodies held a
news conference to deny that any
evidence connected to match-fixing was suppressed. During the
Australian Opens early rounds,
player after player has left the
court and headed to a news conference where the main line of questioning centers around corruption
in their sport.
Roger Federer, owner of a record
17 major titles, called the reports
pure speculation, pointing out
the lack of details, including the
names of any players purported to
be involved.
Current mens No. 1 Novak
Djokovic retold the story of an
episode in Russia in the mid2000s, saying members of his
entourage were approached about
having him intentionally lose a
match.
Of course, we (rejected) it right
away. It didnt even get to me,
Djokovic said.
Agassi thinks the ATP, WTA and
International Tennis Federation
should look into the broader issue.
I do believe and assume that the
organizing bodies of any sport
would treat this (subject) with the
seriousness that it deserves, to
protect the integrity of the game
and also the fans of the sport,
Agassi said. It needs to be treated
that way. And it sounds, based on
the reports and the conversations
about it, that it will be addressed as
such.
Australian Open
champion hasnt given up more than
three games in any of the 14 sets she
has played this year, including her
run to the title at the Brisbane
International two weeks ago.
She beat Alison Van Uytvanck
6-0, 6-0 in the first round at
Melbourne Park.

Raiders QB Derek Carr

ALAMEDA Oakland Raiders quarterback Derek Carr was added to the Pro Bowl
roster as an injury replacement for Green

Jan. 31 game in Hawaii, but will get the
chance to play in it in just his second season following Wednesdays announcement.

Bold, black kitchens serve up style

By Kim Cook
The kitchens often a room to experiment with decor, as well as food

and drink. Over the years weve seen
yellow, turquoise, avocado green,
greige and white take their turn as
favored hues.
But right now, black is back.
It makes perfect sense, style-wise,
says New York City designer Elaine
Griffin. We began seeing the rise of
black appliances as sleek and stylish
non-white alternatives to pricier stainless options at the new millennium,
and black as the new neutral wall
color has been gaining popularity
over the past decade.
You can go ultramodern or traditional when bringing black into the
kitchen.
High-end, Euro-style lacquered cabinetry from companies like Boffi,
Poliform and Bulthap is sleek and
sexy. Marble countertops and geometric fixtures can create a glamorous,
jewel-box kitchen, great for entertaining.
Put the hue on Shaker-style cabinets, add rustic French tile, smooth
quartz counters and hand-rubbed brass
fittings, and youve got a sophisticated space. Or add a walnut or maple slab
island and saddle leather stools for an
industrial look.
A few things to remember if youre
going to get a black kitchen right:
Contrast is key. Going overboard
with black will get you a kitchen that
resembles a bad mall hair salon, says
Griffin. Use black on the cabinets and
a paler hue on counters and floors, or
vice versa.
Maria Killam, a color expert and
designer in Vancouver, British
Columbia, agrees.
Make sure your floors and countertops are very light to balance and contrast the super-dark cabinets. Working
with black is a balancing act and
requires some skill, she advises.
Simple white tile with black grout
is a great way to get some light in the
space and give a nod to classic
kitchens.
Killam suggests including wood elements like a butcher-block island
countertop. Wood lower cabinets
would work with black countertops and
Ikea offers the Sektion kitchen cabinets in black, and there is a range of coordinating black kitchen fittings there too, including drawer pulls,
storage items and trash cans.
upper shelving, for example. I would
keep the wood finishes as natural as
possible ... and relatively pale so the
overall effect isnt too heavy, she
says.

You can repaint existing cabinetry if
youre budget-conscious. Consider

Black
Fox,
Valspars Raven Black or Behrs Black
Suede. Many shades of black pick up
other hues in an interesting way
midnight blues, chocolates and sooty
grays, for example. Choose the right
finish: Save the glossy paint for trim
or youll be swabbing fingerprints forever.

Like a little black dress, accessories make a statement in a black
kitchen, so choose your hardware and
fixtures with care, advises Griffin.
Polished or antiqued brass and black
is a white-hot finish option right now,
for both contemporary and traditional
looks.

The development aims to spread 260
high-end apartments throughout two fivestory apartment buildings on the 300 and
400 blocks of Airport Boulevard, and 12
townhouses, which will be available for
sale, slated to be built nearby at 216 Miller
Ave.
Should the commission give a green light
to the project during the meeting, it would
go on to the City Council for final approval
in the coming weeks.
Alex Greenwood, the citys director of
Economic and Community Development,
expressed his support for the project, which
is proposed to be built on city-owned land
less than half a mile from the citys Caltrain
station.
This is just a really wonderful location to
take advantage of all the amenities that
downtown has to offer, he said. We are
very thrilled.
Ken Busch, senior vice president at Sares
Regis, expressed a similar sentiment.
This is really an ideal location, he said.
Were really excited about it and were really looking forward to getting underway.

imous though, as some residents have criticized the lack of below-market rate units
that have been included in the project.
John Martoni, a teacher in the Hayward
who lives in South San Francisco, has said
he would like a portion of the rental units to
be offered at an affordable price.
Greenwood said city officials are dedicated
to building affordable housing in South San
Francisco, and tried to negotiate with the
developer to build some below-market rate
units as part of the project, but ultimately
that effort was unsuccessful.
On this specific project, affordable housing was one of the goals we tried to
explore, he said. But between the various
constraints of the site, and the other community benefits being offered, and the land
price that needed to be paid, affordable
housing didnt turn out to be financially feasible.
Greenwood estimated the project would
likely cost roughly $140 million to complete.
Busch defended the developers decision
to price all the units at a market rate.
We felt this was the best mix with the
community benefit package we put together, he said.
Sares Regis has committed to paying
roughly $3.2 million for improvements to
the citys recreation facilities, parks and
pedestrian thoroughfares.
In all, Busch estimated the developer

would contribute a total of $6 million worth
of improvements to the city, including
work to infrastructure and contamination
prevention, among other efforts.
Offering community benefits are required
as part of the process to grant the developer
approval to build a more densely populated
project than would typically be allowed.
Construction of affordable housing is one
of the tradeoffs the city would accept in
exchange for allowing higher density.
Under state law, the city has no ability to
require the developer to set aside any portion of a rental project at an affordable rate.
Throughout the city, Greenwood said officials have recently approved or considered
the construction of roughly 500 units, and
about 100 of those will likely be designated
at a below-market rate, illustrating a larger
commitment to ensuring South San
Francisco remains affordable to a wide variety of residents.
The City Council has consistently been
concerned about providing workforce and
affordable housing in the downtown, said
Greenwood. If you look at the projects that
are going forward now, about 20 percent of
rental units are affordable, and I think that is
worth noting.
Contrary to the issues raised by those
concerned regarding affordable housing,
Busch noted the developer has engaged in a
thorough community outreach campaign,

and nearly 30 residents and labor groups
signed a petition expressing their support
for the development.
Sares Regis proposed the project as a
transit-oriented development, located only
a few blocks from the citys train station,
which is slated to be relocated even closer
to the citys downtown in the coming years.
Greenwood expressed appreciation for the
developments design.
This is going to be a catalyst project,
said Greenwood. These units will be easy
walking distance, just a block and a half
from the new Caltrain station with easy
access on and off the freeway. This is ideal
for a wide variety of workers who want to
enjoy the downtown and be able to get to
and from their work easily.
Should the project move quickly through
the city approval project, Greenwood said
he believes construction should begin
around the beginning of next year.
For his part, Busch said the project would
bring life to an underutilized few blocks
near the heart of the citys new downtown,
which officials have worked to revitalize.
We feel it will have a positive impact for
the city, he said.

in front of the commission where you can

state your case and members of the public
can fully participate. We would hope that
you would agree, Cave wrote in the letter,
which was also sent to Tony Ferrero, managing member of Pacific Skies Estates,
LLC.
The parks owners received a permit from
the state Department of Housing and
Community Development Agency, the governing body over all mobile home parks in
the state, for the proposed work back in
2013 and the city signed off on it, declaring
it exempt for the need to obtain a Coastal
Development Permit.
But commission staff maintain the
exemption should not have been given.
Due both to lack of documentation and
recent materials provided by the public, it is
not even clear that the citys 2013 exemption determination was made in relation to
the PSE development project or some other
much smaller project (i.e., materials recently provided to us suggest the city exempted
only the demolition and rebuild of a clubhouse structure on a parcel adjacent to PSE
at 12 Sharon Way, Cave wrote in the letter.
Some tenants of the park first got eviction notices last July and ownership offered
many of them up to $15,000 in relocation
assistance.
Not everyone, however, has accepted the
package saying it is too little considering
the areas skyrocketing rental market.
Most of the mobile homes or trailers were
once owned by the tenants but ownership
started buying them out years ago. Those
who did own their mobile homes were protected by rent control and paid below-market rents.
The owners, however, want to remove all
the old homes on the property off Palmetto
Avenue, replace them with newer models
and charge much higher rents.
Pacifica officials have held strong that

the extensive renovations taking place do
not require a permit from the California
Coastal Commission despite the agencys
claim that it does. They have called the work
routine repair and maintenance.
Pacifica officials say the agency has no
authority to reconsider the citys exemption
determination, according to a letter sent to
the commission Dec. 29.
Late last year, private equity firm the
Carlyle Group invested $42 million to
bring in new manufactured homes and
upgrade the streets and utilities at the park.
Ownerships goal is to have 75 percent
vacancy by the end of January, said Carol
McDermott, an adviser to the ownership
group.
The park in Pacifica is now mostly vacant
as construction crews are busy dismantling
the abandoned trailers and ancillary structures.

Lights can keep houseplants growing in winter

By Lee Reich
Short days put sunlight at a premium. Even houseplants feel it.

Mostly, they just sit and wait for
better growing conditions. But for
indoor gardeners who want plants to
keep growing and even flowering
this time of year, artificial light is
the answer.
Visible light is only a small slice
of the electromagnetic wave spectrum, which runs from the very short
gamma and X-rays (with wavelengths
measured in millionths of a meter) to
the long radio waves (with wavelengths measured in kilometers).
Plants utilize and respond to that part
of the spectrum that is visible to us
(390 to 780 millionths of a meter),
except for a portion in the middle.
That portion, which is green, is
reflected rather than absorbed. Thats
why grass is green. Plants cant see
it; we can.
MAKE LIGHT FOR PLANTS

Fluorescent light is rich in blue and
the shorter wavelengths of red light,
important for healthy foliage; incandescent light is rich in far-red
the longer wavelengths of red light
and is important for flowering.
Without belaboring all the pros and
cons of different lights, lets just say
that plants can be grown to perfection indoors with a combination of
run-of-the-mill, cool-white, fluores-
cent bulbs and screw-in incandescent

bulbs. A good balance of light is
achieved with one 15-watt incandescent bulb for every 40-watt fluorescent bulb.
Plant growth is almost as good if
you use fluorescent bulbs alone,
especially if only foliage houseplants are grown. But incandescent
bulbs, besides affecting flowering,
cast a light that gives plants a
warmer, more pleasant appearance.
Still in the experimental stage, but
with a lot of potential for offering
specific wavelengths and low energy
use, are LED lights.
Some two-by-fours, light fixtures
and electrical equipment are all you
need to build a stepped-down version
of the phytotrons research greenhouses used by botanists.
These phytotrons are plant growth
chambers within which light, temperature and humidity can be carefully
controlled and studied.
You almost need sunglasses to look
into or enter phytotrons, where every
inch of reflective wall and ceiling is
covered with fluorescent and incandescent lights. Or, in some newer
installations, LEDs.
In a home, a small, functional phytotron need take up only a few square
feet in the corner of a basement,
spare room or even a closet.
Use your phytotron as a recuperation area for light-starved plants, for
bringing houseplants into flower
before moving them for display, and
for growing seedlings.

With attention to design and craftsmanship, you could build a permanently displayed habitat of healthy
plants.
BUT ITS NOT SUNLIGHT

How much light is there under one
standard two-tube, 4-foot fluorescent
light fixture?
The unit of measure for light recalls
the days before electricity: one footcandle (abbreviated fc) is the amount
of light a foot away from a candle. On
a bright, sunny day outdoors, plants
are showered with 10,000 fc. On a
cloudy winter day, 500 fc. At 6 inches
below the middle of the fluorescent
fixture, 900 fc.
The illumination drops by about
half for each additional 6 inches distance from the tubes. Dust and age
further diminish the light.
Plants vary in their light needs.
Cast-iron plant, babys tears and
other foliage plants grow happily
with less than 250 fc. Real flowers,
so welcome this time of year, can be
coaxed from flowering maple (this is
Abutilon species, no relation to the
tree maples outside), crown-ofthorns, African violet, and oxalis
with 600 fc. Put on your sunglasses
and crank the intensity up to 1,400 fc
for flowers on tuberous begonias,
Christmas cherries and peppers.
Artificial lights will make your
plants feel that you have taken them
on a winter trip to the Caribbean.
Artificial lights can keep houseplants growing in winter.

NELSON
This is simply retaliation, he said.
Superintendent Kevin Skelly said in
an email he and Yim would not address
Nelsons claims, as it is against district policy to comment publicly on
personnel matters.
Im afraid that we are going to have
to decline to comment about this
issue, he said.
As word of Nelsons potential transfer spread throughout the Burlingame
High School community, students and
parents jumped into action in defense
of an educator who has established
close relationships with generations
of students.
Uma Krishnan, who graduated from
the school last year, started an online
petition which has received 1,850 signatures at the time of this article in
support of keeping Nelson at the campus.
Krishnan, 18, said Nelsons reassignment to a different school would
be a tremendous loss for the
Burlingame community, and hopes the
resounding response from past and
present students sends a clear message
to district administrators.
I want him to know the support he
ARRESTS
Police have identified the couple as
San Bruno residents Maria King, 31,
and Saliq Leeky Calloway, 22. The
two have been in a romantic relationship for a few months and police are
investigating whether theyre connected to other crimes. There has been
a rise of property crimes along the
Peninsula and the homeowner
remained calm during the incident that
prompted police to order neighboring
residents to shelter in place, Decker
said.
It is pretty rare to have [a burglary]
at night and especially to have the
home be occupied. So its a pretty
brazen crime and for us, it requires an
urgent response because we have no
idea what their intention is, especially
when theres a family inside, Decker
said.
Decker said the incident began
around 2:45 a.m. when a resident on
the 3100 block of Greenoak Court was
awoken by Calloway attempting to
break into his home in the Laurelwood
neighborhood. The man reportedly saw
a man in his backyard who shined a
flashlight into the home, then heard
someone trying to force their way in.
The resident, whose wife was also at
has, and I want the district to know

they cant do whatever they want
because we have an excellent community that backs our best teachers, she
said.
Nelson mentored Krishnan during
her four years at the school, she said,
and encouraged her down a path which
resulted in her establishing the
schools first computer science program designed to serve women students.
Krishnan, who is now a freshman at
the University of California at
Berkeley, said Nelsons class helped
improve her experience as a student
tremendously.
I learned so much in his class, she
said. I honestly felt like his classes
are the ones that prepared me for what
college is actually like.
The advocacy could take another
step forward later this week, said
Krishnan, as some students are considering wearing black clothes to school
Friday, Jan. 22, as a sign of solidarity
with Nelson.
Krishnan said she believes Yim is
holding a personal vendetta against
Nelson.
He is an excellent teacher and I feel
like the way he is being treated is inappropriate, she said.
Krishnan admitted she has a history
of disagreeing with Yim on other
issues, which she believes stems in
part from a reluctance by the principal

to familiarize herself with the students, parents and educators at the
school.
Shes new but she doesnt have a
proper relationship with the students
or teachers, said Krishnan. I dont
think she understands the Burlingame
community, so as a result, she isnt
able to be a good principal.
Krishnan said she is afraid many of
the concerns she, and others who
signed the petition, have expressed
will ultimately fall on deaf ears of
administrators.
If he does leave Burlingame, whatever school he goes to will be blessed,
and the Burlingame community will be
upset, she said.
For his part, Nelson said he is uncertain of how the issue will be resolved.
He said the overwhelming outpouring of support from the community
has been heartening though.
Im getting a response that no one
ever gets, he said. That makes me
feel great that I have made a change and
an impact on their lives that is positive.
But he said the treatment he has suffered from administrators is indicative
of a larger issue.
This is the reason why creative, and
talented professionals dont want to be
teachers, he said. They get shoved in
a box and told what to do.
home, immediately called police to the

scene.
Calloway did not gain entry to the
home and managed to flee, Decker said.
The first officer to respond was a K9
handler who found King rummaging
through a vehicle near Caxton Court, a
few doors down from the interrupted
burglary. The officer approached on
foot but King ignored his requests for
her to stop and instead got into a silver
Dodge hatchback nearby. The officer
approached the drivers side fender but
King then hit the gas, screeched her
tires and intentionally turned the car
toward the officer and his dog, Decker
said.
The officer opened fire, striking the
vehicle but not King, who narrowly
missed the cop before being stopped
by at least three more arriving officers
a few blocks down the road, Decker
said.
She steered the car deliberately at
him and the dog. Hes cooperating with
the investigation and has been placed
on administrative leave. The investigation will be ongoing with our department and the assistance of the District
Attorneys Office, Decker said.
Police then issued a reverse 911 call
to more than 400 residents telling
them to shelter in place while they
looked for the male subject. After
searching the backyards of nearby
homes without any results, police
determined there was no longer any
danger to the neighborhood and lifted

the order, Decker said.
Police then followed up with local
cab companies and received a report of
a suspicious man without shoes being
given a ride to San Bruno. Police determined the suspect was dropped off near
Kings residence and found Calloway,
whod apparently lost his shoes while
running from police, nearby, Decker
said.
King was arrested on three felonies
for attempted murder of a police officer,
burglary and conspiracy to commit a
crime; as well as several misdemeanors
for driving on a suspended license, burglary, resisting arrest, petty theft and
being under the influence of methamphetamine, Decker said.
Calloway was arrested for felony burglary and conspiracy to commit a
crime, and was found to have two outstanding misdemeanor warrants related
to narcotics charges. Both suspects
also have prior criminal records,
Decker said.
Property crimes have become a priority [for police] in the last couple
years. More and more we see offenders
with violent criminal histories committing property crimes, Decker said.
In this case, we were very thankful the
victim was calm, despite the fact that
someone was trying to break into his
home and he gave us the information we needed to plan a response and
get there quickly.

NOTICE OF PETITION TO
ADMINISTER ESTATE OF
Larissa M. Tarahteeff, aka Lirissa, aka
Larissa Maximova Gerasimova
Case Number: 126480
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or estate, or both, of Larissa M. Tarahteeff,
aka Lirissa, aka Larissa Maximova Gerasimova. A Petition for Probate has been
filed by Oksana Mukha and Sergey Stadnitsky in the Superior Court of California,
County of San Mateo. The Petition for
Probate requests that Oksana Mukha
and Sergey Stadnitsky be appointed as
personal representative to administer the
estate of the decedent.
The petition requests the decedents will
and codicils, if any, be admitted to probate. The will and any codicils are available for examination in the file kept by the
court.
The petition requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent
Administration of Estates Act. (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval. Before taking certain
very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to
give notice to interested persons unless
they have waived notice or consented to
the proposed action.) The independent
administration authority will be granted
unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good
cause why the court should not grant the
authority.
A hearing on the petition will be held in
this court as follows: FEB 10, 2016 at
9:00 a.m., Department 28, Superior
Court of California, County of San Mateo,
400 County Center, Redwood City, CA

Notice of Intent to Adopt

a Mitigated Negative Declaration
NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the Director of Public Works of the City of Menlo Park,
California, is scheduled to review the following item:
Environmental Review: To evaluate the potential environmental impacts pursuant to
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) in the Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) for
the project listed below.
Project Description: The project proposes to construct a new pedestrian and bicycle
bridge over the Atherton Channel in order to enhance pedestrian and bicycle access along
Haven Avenue and provide a safe crossing of the Atherton Channel. The project would also
extend the sidewalk along the north side of Haven Avenue approximately 650 feet eastward
to Marsh Road and install a bicycle lane for 35 feet beyond the new pedestrian and bicycle
bridge along the north side of Haven Avenue and for 325 feet along the south side of Haven
Avenue. The bridge would be a single span prefabricated structure, approximately 10 feet
wide by 34 feet long, constructed over the channel. Bridge abutments would be concrete
cast in place structures installed at the top of the channel bank. The proposed pedestrian
and bicycle bridge, sidewalks, and bicycle lanes would be constructed within the existing
Caltrans road right of way of Haven Avenue.
Project Location: The proposed project site is located along the north side of Haven
Avenue across the Atherton Channel, 35 feet downstream of the existing two-lane vehicle
bridge. It includes the existing Haven Avenue alignment and road right-of-way, associated
sidewalks, and a portion of the Atherton Channel.
Initial Study/Environmental Assessment: An Initial Study has been prepared for the
proposed project and the analysis has determined that there will be no significant environmental impacts with implementation of proposed mitigation measures. Therefore, the
proposed project would not have a significant impact on the environment and a Mitigated
Negative Declaration will be adopted by the Director of Public Works.
The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) requires this notice to disclose whether
any listed toxic sites are present at the location. The project location does not contain a
toxic site pursuant to Section 6596.2 of the Government Code.
Copies of the Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration are available for public review
at the City Main Library and at the City of Menlo Park, Engineering Division front counter at
701 Laurel Street, Menlo Park, CA 94025 and on the web at:
http://www.menlopark.org/892/St-Anton. Documents may be reviewed between the hours
of 7:30 a.m. and 5:30 p.m. Monday through Thursday and 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. on Friday,
with alternate Fridays closed.
Public Review Period: The public review period for the Initial Study and Mitigated Negative
Declaration begins on January 22, 2016 and ends on February 22, 2016 at 5:00pm.
Written comments regarding the project must be submitted to the Engineering Division no
later than 5:00 p.m., Monday, February 22, 2016. Comments may be submitted to Virginia
Parks, Associate Engineer, by email to VKFParks@menlopark.org or by letter to the
Engineering division, 701 Laurel Street, Menlo Park, CA 94025. For questions, please call
Virginia at 650-330-6740.
