Half Moon Bay officials are opting for further

New San Carlos billboard calls for old signs removal

Auto repair business owner just west of Highway 101 irked by citys requirement
By Anna Schuessler
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
A city requirement to remove a
billboard on a property just west of
Highway 101 in San Carlos to
make way for a new digital bill-
board some 2 miles south is a cause
for concern for the owner of a spe-
cialty car repair shop who said he
could lose a source of revenue
should the policy take its course.
Mike Keynejad, owner of
Eurotech Complete Auto Care at
171 Industrial Road, said he paid a
higher price for the property
where he operates his business
when he purchased it in 1989
because of the revenue potential of
the billboard already on the site.
Though he was disappointed when
his requests to the city to upgrade
with a digital billboard on his
property were rejected more than
10 years ago, Keynejad said he
became very upset to learn
through a notice sent to his home
in recent weeks that plans to
remove the billboard are in
motion. Clear Channel Outdoor
the media advertising company
leasing a portion of his property
to operate the sign proposed to
install a digital billboard at anoth-
er location in the city along
Highway 101, according to
Keynejad and the city.
Ive been so upset about this
issue since I heard about it almost
two months ago, Keynejad said.
According to City Planner Lisa
Costa Sanders, a city policy limit-
ing the number of billboards in
San Carlos requires those looking
to create a new billboard to
remove one before they can begin
construction. As the owner of the
billboard on Keynejads property,
the decision is Clear Channels as
to which sign the company
decides to take down to make room
in the citywide billboard cap,
Costa Sanders said. The proposed
new digital billboard would be at
815 American St., where a land-
scape supply store currently
stands, according to the city.

Harassment claims shine light on state Capitol partying

down at a bar after a hectic day in the
Legislature is a regular part of business in

White House: Trust cost
of opioid epidemic tops $500 billion
WASHINGTON The White House says the true cost of
the opioid drug epidemic in 2015 was $504 billion, or
roughly half a trillion dollars.
In an analysis to be released Monday, the Council of
Economic Advisers says the gure is more than six times
larger than the most recent estimate. The council said a
2016 private study estimated that prescription opioid over-
does, abuse and dependence in the U.S. in 2013 cost $78.5
billion. Most of that was attributed to health care and crim-
inal justice spending, along with lost productivity.
The council said its estimate is signicantly larger
because the epidemic has worsened, with overdose deaths
doubling in the past decade, and that some previous studies
didnt reect the number of fatalities blamed on opioids, a
powerful but addictive category of painkillers.
The council also said previous studies focused exclusive-
ly on prescription opioids, while its study also factors in
illicit opioids, including heroin.
Previous estimates of the economic cost of the opioid
crisis greatly underestimate it by undervaluing the most
important component of the loss fatalities resulting
from overdoses, said the report, which the White House
released Sunday night.
Last month at the White House, President Donald Trump
declared opioid abuse a national public health emergency.
Trump announced an advertising campaign to combat what
he said is the worst drug crisis in the nations history, but
he did not direct any new federal funding toward the effort.
Station: Video shows
nurses laughing as patient dies
ATLANTA Two nurses lost their licenses after a televi-
sion station persuaded courts to unseal a video secretly
recorded by the family of a man who died in their care.
The video shows the World War II veteran repeatedly call-
ing for help, saying he cant breathe. It also shows the
nurses failing to take life-saving measures and laughing as
they try to start an oxygen machine.
The family of 89-year-old James Dempsey of Woodstock,
Georgia, sued the Northeast Atlanta Health and
Rehabilitation Center in 2014.
Dempseys family declined to comment, citing a settle-
ment with the nursing home, the station said.
A statement from the center says care has improved since
then, under different leadership.
But WXIA-TV said the nurses didnt surrender their licens-
es until this September, after it sent The Georgia Board of
Nursing a link to the video the nursing home fought three
years to keep secret.
The nurses included a nursing supervisor who told attor-
neys that, when she learned Dempsey had stopped breath-
ing, she rushed to his room and took over CPR, keeping it
up until paramedics arrived.

Trump sparks new debate about nuclear war authority
By Robert Burns
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON Its hard to overstate how thoroughly
the U.S. military has prepared for doomsday the day
America gets into a nuclear shooting war.
No detail seems to have been overlooked. Theres even a
designated safe escape door at the nuclear-warghting
headquarters near Omaha, Nebraska, through which the four-
star commander would rush to a getaway plane moments
before the rst bomb hit.
Procedures are in place for ensuring U.S. nuclear weapons
are ready for a presidential launch order in response to or
in anticipation of a nuclear attack by North Korea or any-
one else. There are backup procedures and backups for the
backups.
And yet fundamental aspects of this nightmare sequence
remain a mystery.
For example, what would happen if an American president
ordered a nuclear strike, for whatever reason, and the four-
star general at Strategic Command balked or refused, believ-
ing it to be illegal?
Robert Kehler, a retired general who once led that com-
mand, was asked this at a congressional hearing last week.
His response: Youd be in a very interesting constitutional

during the Obama administration, said a presidents rst

as rubbed his chin, you either get a new secretary of defense
or get a new commander. The implication is that one way
or another, the commander in chief would not be thwarted.
The current head of Strategic Command, Gen. John Hyten,
said Saturday at the Halifax International Security Forum in
Canada that he would refuse a launch order from a president
if he believed that order to be illegal. Hyten also predicted
that the president would then ask him for options that Hyten
judged to be legal.
Bruce Blair, a former nuclear missile launch ofcer and co-
founder of the Global Zero group that advocates eliminating
nuclear weapons, said the Kehler scenario misses a more
important point: The Strategic Command chief might, in
effect, be bypassed by the president.
A president can transmit his nuclear attack order directly
to a Pentagon war room, Blair said. From there it would go

Figure known as Crocodile could replace Zimbabwe president

By Andre Meldrum
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
JOHANNESBURG Emmerson
Mnangagwa, elected Sunday as the new
leader of Zimbabwes ruling political party
and positioned to take over as the coun-
trys leader, has engineered a remarkable
comeback using skills he no doubt learned
from his longtime mentor, President
Robert Mugabe.
Mnangagwa served for decades as
Mugabes enforcer a role that gave him
a reputation for being astute, ruthless and
effective at manipulating the levers of
power. Among the population, he is more
feared than popular, but he has strategical-
ly fostered a loyal support base within the
military and security forces.
A leading government figure since
Zimbabwes independence in 1980, he
became vice president in 2014 and is so
widely known as the Crocodile that his
supporters are called Team Lacoste for the
brands crocodile logo.
The 75-year-old is smart and skillful,
but will he be a panacea for Zimbabwes
problems? Will he bring good governance
and economic management? Well have to
watch this space, said Piers Pigou, south-
ern Africa expert for the International
Crisis Group.

events that led to his own downfall, firing

Volf also managed to escape. The brothers

Participating in our democracy
By Mike Nagler
O
ne of my earliest childhood
memories was when my par-
ents, joined by their closest
friends, canvassed our San Mateo
neighborhood in support of Adlai
Stevenson during the 1956 presiden-
tial election. I was too young to
understand what the issues were, but it
was my first brush with the idea of a
democracy. Though I couldnt spell
the word, I was introduced to how
Americas citizens might not only
participate in, but also influence their
government.
Much later, I understood something
else. That my parents did this even
with the firm knowledge that their
candidate had absolutely no chance of
prevailing. President Eisenhower beat
Stevenson in a landslide, and this
came as no surprise to my folks. But I
came to see they believed that one
crucial attribute of the American char-
acter was that though we may see
things differently, every voice mat-
ters. That recognizing this and honor-
ing it is what our country is built
upon, and that whether or not their
candidate won, they believed the
cause he espoused was just.
My mother, who is now 95, went
onto become the second woman
elected to what was then called the
San Mateo Elementary School Board.
(Foster City had not been invented
yet.) Among her various accomplish-
ments was spearheading the districts
drive toward integration. All of San
Mateo seemed to be energized for or
against, and many of the meetings
were acrimonious, though my mother
and her allies were eventually suc-
cessful.
They were committed to the idea
that neighborhoods should not clothe
themselves in separateness, but

Recently, I
thought about
these long ago
events in regard to
our current government, a govern-
ment that seems bent on lulling its
citizenry into perceiving our
democracy as a kind of private cor-
poration instilling fear and divi-
sion separateness into our
society with little responsibility to
the private good, and certainly not
the democratic instrument that
exists to protect the hopes of those
who need it most.
And I remembered these events,
too, because in our recent local elec-
tion the countywide voter turnout was
under 25 percent. This means that 75
percent of registered voters had no
interest in exercising their most
indispensable right.
In the Jean Renoir film Rules of
the Game, a character remarks, You
see, in this world, there is one awful
thing, and that is that everyone has
their reasons.
And most people have their reasons
for not voting. The my-vote-wont-
make-a-difference-theyre-all-bums-I-
dont-even-know-who-the candidates-
are sort of reasons. Weve all heard
them and perhaps have uttered these
and others sometimes our-
selves.
But there is a domino effect to not
voting even in the most local of
elections a kind of rippling out of
unawareness.
At first, it may be just that the kids
are no longer in school so why should
we care about a school board race?
Next, perhaps, wed have a difficult
time naming even two of our city
councilmembers. Then, we may have
little idea what a Board of Supervisors
actually does. Or we could care less

Mixed signals sent on fate of tax bills health provision
By Darlene Superville
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON Two of President Donald Trumps
leading economic advisers sent mixed signals Sunday on
the fate of a health care provision in the Senate version
of a $1. 5 trillion measure to overhaul business and per-
sonal income taxes that is expected to be voted on after
Thanksgiving.
The provision to repeal a requirement that everyone in
the U. S. have insurance has emerged as a major sticking
point for Republican Sen. Susan Collins of Maine, who
has said that issue should be dealt with separately from
the push by Trump and fellow Republicans to overhaul
the tax code.
Collins vote is crucial in a chamber where
Republicans hold a slim 52-48 edge.
Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wis. , has already declared his
opposition to the bill, saying last week that it doesnt
cut business taxes enough for partnerships and corpora-
tions. GOP Sens. Bob Corker of Tennessee, John
McCain and Jeff Flake of Arizona, and Rand Paul of
Kentucky also have concerns about the bill.
Republicans cannot afford to lose more than two sena-
tors on the final vote, which would allow Vice President
Mike Pence to cast a tie-breaking 51st vote in his capac-
ity as president of the Senate. Democrats are not expect-
ed to support the bill, as was the case when the House
passed its version last week.
Asked whether the health care provision will be
removed to keep Republicans on board, Treasury
Secretary Steven Mnuchin indicated that the current plan
is to keep the provision in the bill. The provision is not
Treasury chief a Bond villain? Mnuchin OK with comparison

WASHINGTON Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin
said Sunday he had no idea that a photo of him and his
wife posing with a sheet of newly printed money would
go viral.
And he said hes not bothered that some commentators
suggested the pair looked like James Bond villains.
Mnuchin had invited his wife, Louise Linton, to join
him for what is usually a routine photo of a treasury sec-
retary examining currency being printed with his signa-
ture.
But the photo from Wednesdays event became an inter-
net sensation. It showed Mnuchin and Linton who was
wearing long black-leather gloves holding the sheet
of $1 bills.

The president thinks we should get rid of it. I think we
should get rid of it, Mnuchin said. Its an unfair tax on
poor people. To think that you put a
penalty on people who cant afford to
buy medical policies, its just funda-
mentally unfair.
He added: But were going to work
with the Senate as we go through this.
Budget director Mick Mulvaney said
the White House is open to scrapping
the provision, which would repeal a
key component of the Affordable Care
Susan Collins Act health care law enacted by
President Barack Obama. Trump has
pressed for the provision to be added to the bill, partly to
show progress on undoing the health care law. Congress
fell short during previous attempts earlier this year to
repeal the overall health care law.
I dont think anybody doubts where the White House
is on repealing and replacing Obamacare. We absolutely
want to do it, Mulvaney said. If we can repeal part of
Obamacare as part of a tax bill and have a tax bill that is
still a good tax bill that can pass, thats great.
If it becomes an impediment to getting the best tax
bill we can, then were OK with taking it out, Mulvaney
Mnuchin, a former Hollywood pro-
ducer, said on Fox News Sunday that
he probably should take it as a compli-

Mnuchin said he wasnt bothered by
the Twitter attacks over the photo.
People have the right to do that.
People can express what they want, he
said. Thats the great thing about
Steve Mnuchin social media today. People can say and
communicate what they want.
Mnuchins wife created a furor on social media in August
when she posted an Instagram photo of the two of them
stepping off a government jet on a trip to Kentucky. In
the photo, Linton had included hashtags of various luxu-
ry designers she was wearing. That prompted criticism

House views the individual mandate as
a tax and we like the fact that the
Senate has included it in its bill.
Mick Mulvaney At issue is a provision to repeal the
requirement that everyone in the U. S.
have health insurance. Eliminating the so-called individ-
ual mandate under Obamacare would add an estimated
$338 billion in revenue over 10 years that the Senate
tax-writers used for additional tax cuts.
Collins said Sunday that the tax advantage that some
middle-income consumers would get under the broader
bill could end up being canceled out by repealing the
mandate. They would face higher insurance premiums
coupled with the loss of federal subsidies to help them
afford the cost of insurance, she said.
The fact is that if you do pull this piece of the
Affordable Care Act out, for some middle-income fami-
lies, the increased premium is going to cancel out the tax
cut that they would get, Collins said.
Collins said she hasnt decided how to vote on the bill
because it will be amended before the final vote.
Mnuchin, meanwhile, said hes had very good discus-
sions with Collins, Corker and Johnson about the bill.
He said he wants to make sure their views are heard and
incorporated before the final vote.
Mnuchin spoke on Fox News Sunday. Mulvaney and
Collins were interviewed on CNNs State of the Union.
Collins also appeared on ABCs This Week.
from an Oregon woman who said, Glad
we could pay for your little getaway.
Linton responded: Pretty sure the
amount we sacrifice per year is a lot
more than youd be willing to sacrifice
if the choice was yours. Linton later
apologized for her comments.
On Sunday, Mnuchin did clear up one
mystery: why he had decided to print
his signature, which will appear on all
Louise Linton new bills produced while he is in
office, rather than writing it, as past
treasury secretaries had done.
I had a very, very messy signature that you could bare-
ly read, Mnuchin said. I felt that since I was going to be
on the dollar bill forever, I should have a nice clean sig-
nature.

Nor Cal battle with Oak Ridge for rare playoff win
By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Burlingame was a long shot to host a CIF
Northern California Division I volleyball
playoff match.
Despite opening on the road in the single-
elimination bracket as the No. 12 seed
though, the Panthers after last Wednesdays
three-set upset of No. 5 Lick-Wilmerding
were surprised to be playing at home in the
second round against No. 13 Oak Ridge.
And what the Panthers delivered for the
hometown fans was nothing short of the most
exciting match many of the players said they
were ever a part of grueling, but exciting.
After dropping the opening set,
Burlingame (24-6 overall) took the final
two games into extra points to outlast Oak
Ridge in a back-and-forth battle, 22-25, 25-
23, 32-30, 30-28. With the win, the
Panthers advance to the Northern California
regional semifinals for the first time in pro-
gram history, travelling to No. 1 James
Logan-Union City Tuesday at 7 p.m.
It was unfathomable to think, heading
into Saturdays final set, that anything
could top Game 3 in terms of dramatics.
In it, Oak Ridge (22-9) forced set point
five times, as early as 24-22, and as late as
30-29. But after a side-out on senior middle
blocker Natalie Ballouts kill off the middle, Burlingames Amber Moss, right, and Melanie Pitzer go up for block against Oak

The Caada womens soccer team, previously having

Curry scores 39, Warriors hold off Nets

By Brian Mahoney
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK Steph Curry knew he need-
ed to start aggressively to make up for the
absence of Kevin Durant.
Then the Warriors had to finish the job
without Curry after foul trouble ended his
best game of the season.
Curry had season highs with 39 points
and 11 rebounds, and Golden State held on
after he fouled out to beat the Brooklyn Nets
118-111 on Sunday night.
Curry also had seven assists but commit-
ted seven turnovers and his last two fouls
came on charging calls.
Obviously, he was brilliant I mean in
terms of his scoring and shot-making but I
thought in the second half he got a little
wild, Warriors coach Steve Kerr said. He
kind of had his way out there for a while and
he got so excited that he probably went over
the top and started making some mistakes.
A night after erasing a 22-point halftime
Warriors 118, Nets 111
deficit in Philadelphia, the
Warriors built a 22-point
cushion after two quarters
behind 22 points from
Curry. Playing without
Durant, they led by 28 in
the third quarter but
Steph Curry Brooklyn cut it all the way
to four after Curry picked
up his sixth foul with three minutes remaining.
Klay Thompson then scored seven of his
23 points in the final two minutes.
You like to see those guys out there,
Draymond Green said of Durant and Curry.
But obviously we have other guys that can
step up.
Durant was out with a sprained left ankle,
giving him extra rest before Golden State
wraps up its four-game trip at Oklahoma
City on Wednesday night in his former
home arena. Omri Casspi started in his
place and had 12 points and eight rebounds.
The Warriors trailed 74-52 at halftime in
Philadelphia on Saturday before scoring 47
points in the third quarter and winning 124-
116. Curry appeared determined to get
Golden State going quickly in Durants
absence, scoring 13 points while playing
all 12 minutes in the first quarter.
For sure, Curry said. Its 25, 26 points that
are missing and youve got to try to put pressure
on the defense to kind of honor your scoring
threat and open up the floor for everyone else.
Allen Crabbe scored 25 points, and
Spencer Dinwiddie had 21 points and eight
assists for the Nets.
I thought we were taken by the moment a
little bit, Nets coach Kenny Atkinson said.
You know, these guys play a lot of big games,
but I felt like were frozen for some reason.

had a great season (when youre practicing
on Thanksgiving).
It will be an important week of practice as
the second-seeded Dons (10-1) will take a
huge step up in competition when they host
No. 3 St. Francis (8-4) in the semifinals
Friday at 7 p.m. The Lancers buried No. 6
Wilcox 52-27 last Friday night.
It didnt take long for Sell and the Dons to
realize Saturday they would, in all likelihood,
be practicing Thursday. Aragon needed only
seven plays to go 66 yards on the first drive
of the day as the Dons would go on to score
all 41 points in the first half, scoring on all
six of their drives in the first two quarters.
The domination was so thorough the
Westmont head coach agreed to a running
clock for the entirety of the second half.
Aragon running back Paul Lautaimi led the
offense with 146 yards rushing and three touch-
downs on just 10 carries all in the first half.
Camron Grant added 69 yards and a score on
seven carries, while Frankie Paredes also rushed
for 69 yards in the second half. Quarterback
Gabe Campos completed 4 of 8 passes for 98
yards and a pair of touchdowns to Davion Cox.
When we start fast, we tend to play really
well, Sell said. I thought it was really
important to start fast.
The Aragon offense ran 31 plays in the
first half, scored on a fifth of them and aver-
aged 12.2 yards per play as the Dons racked
up 18 first downs in the first two quarters
14 rushing and four passing.
As good as the Dons offense was, the
defense may have been even more impressive
as the starters held Westmont (7-4), the No. 7
seed, to just 33 yards of offense, sacking the
quarterback three times in the first half. The
Warriors ran 27 plays in the first two quarters
and averaged just 1.2 yards per play.
Our front seven is outstanding, Sell said.
When you back it with guys who can cover
and stop the run, it makes it tough for the
other team.
To get a true indication of just how domi-
nant the Aragon defense was, contrast the
first half to the second, when Sell inserted
his second-string offense and defense.
Against the Dons 2s, Westmont scored three
touchdowns over the final two quarters and
racked up 180 yards of offense.
Sell admitted he was starting to worry and
thought about re-inserting his starting
defense after Westmont closed to 41-17. But
when he saw Westmont was not onside kick-
ing following its touchdowns, Sell figured
there wasnt enough time left for the Warriors
to come all the way back.
If it wasnt running clock (to start the second
half), my 2s wouldnt have played, Sell said.
When they scored two quick [touchdowns] to
make it 17, I got concerned. I knew we needed
another drive to take time off the clock.
The back-up offense got off to a shaky
start, with a fumble on the first drive of the
third quarter, which Westmont promptly
turned into a touchdown on the next play. But
on Aragons ensuing drive, the Dons moved
from their own 20 to the Warriors 21-yard
line before turning the ball over on downs
with just over eight minutes to play.
The second half, however, was a mere for-
mality after the Dons explosive perform-
ance in the first two quarters. Grant capped
Aragons first drive by diving over the pile at
the 1-yard line.
The score gave Grant a unique double-double
for the season. His first-quarter touchdown
gave him 10 (11 if you count a pick-6) on
offense, to go along with 14 sacks on the year.
After forcing a Westmont punt on its first
possession, the Dons needed just four plays
to go 59 yards. A Campos-to-Cox 16-yard
fade pass to the back corner of the end zone
put Aragon up 13-0 just over six minutes into
the game.
A shanked Warriors punt set up the Dons
third touchdown on as many drives. Campos
rolled out on the first play and hit Simon Mapa
for a 30-yard gain before Lautaimi capped the
53-yard drive with a 7-yard scoring run.
Westmont took advantage of a long kick-
off return to the Aragon 29, but the Warriors
had to settle for a 31-yard field goal for their
only points of the first half.
The Dons responded by going 80 yards on
just eight plays. Donaven Robinson set the
tone for the drive with a 30-yard pickup on a
sweep right and Lautaimi capped the drive with
a 12-yard touchdown run stiff-arming one
defender to the ground and breaking through
two other would-be tacklers before going into
the end zone for a 27-3 Aragon lead.
Lautaimis 47-yard touchdown burst on
Aragons next possession put the Dons up
34-7 with just over three minutes left in the
half enough time to force another
Westmont punt and go in for another score.
The Dons took over at the Warriors 33 and
scored on the first play of the drive when
Campos hit Cox on a slant that he turned
into a touchdown.
I was just pleased we executed, Sell said.
There were times this year when we didnt.
Division V
No. 2 Menlo School 35, No. 7 Jefferson 8
After scuffling to end the regular season,
losing two straight, the Knights righted the
ship in the first round of the CCS Division V
bracket with a rout of the Lake Division
champion Grizzlies.
Dillon Grady set the tone for Menlo (7-4),
returning an interception 79 yards for the
first score of the game. He later added an 8-
yard touchdown pass from quarterback
Emilio Simbeck.
Simbeck completed only 6 of his 13 pass-
es for 85 yards, but two of those passes went
for scores. In addition to Gradys grab, David
Schmaier added a 15-yard scoring catch from
Simbeck. Kevin Alarcon replaced Simbeck
in the fourth quarter and threw an 8-yard
touchdown pass to Jake Shiff, who also had a
10-yard score on the ground.
Defensively, the Knights held Jefferson
running back Angelo Velez, who rushed for
over 1,500 yards this season, to only 51.
Keanu Tafeamalli accounted for the only
touchdown for Jefferson (8-3), scoring on an
18-yard run in the fourth quarter.
Up next for Menlo is a semifinal meeting
with No. 6 Scotts Valley, which upset No. 3
Soledad, 24-17. The Falcons and Knights
will kickoff Saturday at 1 p.m. in Atherton.

BGAME
Continued from page 11
sophomore outside hitter Emmy Sharp deliv-
ered a long top-spin serve that clipped the back
corner, forcing Burlingames fourth set point.
The third set really killed me, Burlingame
head coach Nilo Mauricio said. And Emmys
ace that could have gone either way, that was
really tough on my heart.
Ballout who dazzled with a double-dou-
ble of 16 match kills and 12 blocks then
saved her coach from a coronary, scoring
her sixth kill of the set to close out the dra-
matic Game 3 win.
But, oh how the dramatics carried over
into Game. 4.
It hardly seemed Oak Ridge was fitting to
go out in a blaze of glory. Burlingame rode
its wave of momentum to build a massive
lead highlighted by an early kick save by
senior defensive specialist Ally Langlinais,
who on the play actually tallied an assist on
setter Edwena Wongs reverse bump kill
to ultimately force 11 match points, includ-
ing seven in a row when senior middle
Amber Moss put down an overpass for a
commanding 24-16 lead.
The relentless play of Oak Ridge senior
libero Madison Shields, however, led the
Trojans on an eight-point run to force extra
points.
We obviously were up by a lot and it was
our mistake, Burlingame junior Caroline
Smith said. Theyre a good team and we
realized they werent going to give up.
Burlingames problematic serve receive was
a recurring theme of the match, and with Oak
Ridges proverbial back against the wall,
Shields was keen to exploit the weakness. Her
exacting rocket serves and fiery celebrations
after every point gradually came to overshad-
ow the Panthers premature jubilance.
Not only did Shields service run tie it 24-
24 before the senior faulted into the net,
Oak Ridge went on to force two set points,
including at 28-27 on a hook shot by senior
opposite Madison Hurst, whose 15 kills
ranked second for the team-high only to fel-
low Trojan Gracie Rowland, a junior setter
who shared the match-high with 16 kills.
Momentum going into a set is every-
thing, Smith said. If they would have won
that, especially going into a short [Game
5], they would have had a lot.
Burlingame, though, forced a side-out to
send Ballout to the service line. And spurred
by Oak Ridges two straight unforced errors,
the Panthers closed it out, highlighted at
match point No. 11 by junior libero Samantha
Stuarts diving dig to sustain the rally; Oak
Ridge failed to return the pursuant volley for
its 31st unforced error of the match to end it.
Stuart was one of three Panthers to totaled
double-digit digs. Langlinais totaled a team-
high 15 digs, Smith totaled 13 and Stuart 12.
In the beginning (of the match) it was a
little rough, Langlinais said. But as it
progressed, we just really wanted it and
we busted our butt to get it done.
Burlingame recovered from a similar slide
after building a late advantage in Game 1. The
Panthers led 18-14 when Oak Ridge went on a
6-0 tear to take the lead. The Panthers got stuck
in a tough rotation with Smith struggling on
serve receive. By the time Smith scored a kill
off the left side to finally earn a side-out, Oak
Ridge never again trailed in the set.
We knew they were picking on [Smith],
Mauricio said. And it wasnt like she was
shanking. It was just tough passes. But we
needed her on offense.
Smith went on to total nine kills, but it
was the juniors clutch serve receive in Game
2 that swung the advantage to Burlingame.
Amid a 6-6 tie, Smith forced a one-and-done
Oak Ridge service with a crisp pass for sen-
ior setter Nicole Brunicardi to place a quick
set for a Moss kill through the middle.
The Panthers led the rest of the set, hold-
ing off a late Oak Ridge surge. Burlingame
needed three set points to finish it off after
leading 24-20. Ballout finally put it away
with a long-armed block.
It was definitely our blocking, Ballout
said of the victorys key ingredient. Once we
started blocking, then they started adjusting
their hits and we were able to take control.
Burlingame totaled 19 rejections overall
with Sharp scoring three blocks, Smith
two, and Moss and junior Melanie Pitzer
scoring one apiece in a defensive scheme
centered around Ballout, who was recently
named the Peninsula Athletic League Bay
Division Most Valuable Player.

SERRA
Continued from page 11
A common theme in sports storytelling is
the overcoming of adversity, a theme often-
times exaggerated, and sometimes even out-
right exploited, for effect.
After going into the locker room up 31-0,
though, Serra in the wake of Mafis and
Daniels injuries emerged from a somber
halftime locker room to execute an inspired
third quarter of football.
When a leader goes down a physical
leader, a spiritual leader, an emotional
leader there was a cloud over the team;
and thats natural, Walsh said. And I told glitch in an otherwise statement start by the
the team thats a great time for someone else
to pick up the Padre flag and carry it over.
Senior running back Isiah Kendrick was
the catalyst on offense, topping the 200-
overall yards plateau for the second time in
three weeks. Kendrick rushed for three
touchdowns, and added a 23-yard scoring
catch from Patrick Nunn on the Padres final
offensive play of the first half.
Kendrick certainly could have departed fol-
lowing the touchdown reception, giving way
to the second string as he and most of Serras

During the event, Dueas encouraged incarcerated stu-
dents to follow in her footsteps once they are released and
pledged a willingness to help be part of their support sys-
tem through their coming educational endeavor.
She also acknowledged the next step ahead is likely the
most challenging for those facing freedom following their
stint in juvenile hall, where school is mandatory, schedules
are rigid and temptations are limited.
The easiest part is probably over, she said. The chal-
lenging part is about to begin.
Bliss agreed, and the program founder can speak from per-
sonal experience. A former inmate of the facility from where
she recruits academic talent today, she launched Project
Change to fill a void she once found as a teen.
What a great way to loop back around to the past, said
Bliss, who has seen the program climb from 10 students
since its establishment in 2013 to 140 enrollees this year.
With the enrollment growth has come increasing success
too, said Bliss, who claimed 75 percent of project students
in the most recent year are passing their college courses and
enrolling for another semester.
Like many of those currently in Project Change, Bliss
said she spent the years as a high schooler disengaged from
academia, which contributed to her landing in the juvenile
justice system.
This Thanksgiving we have so much
to be thankful for: our families,
friends & communities
We also want to thank our military, police, fire
and first responders for their dedicated service.
Thanksgiving will be a REGULAR COLLECTION DAY

The majority of folks say, just
wait, we just want to see how this
works out for other jurisdictions
first.
Cities and counties across California
have responded differently in the wake
of voters approving last year
Proposition 64, which legalized recre-
ational marijuana for adults and paved
the way for a commercial industry.
State regulators are slated to begin
issuing licenses for commercial opera-
tions in January, a deadline by which
many municipalities have sought to
have their own local rules in place.
From Pacifica to Pescadero, jurisdic-
tions along the San Mateo County
coastline have been more welcoming
to the prospect of commercial pot
operations than other communities.
Pacifica, which has medicinal mari-
juana dispensaries, recently approved a
tax on recreational pot through a ballot
measure Nov. 7. The San Mateo County
Board of Supervisors, which oversees
the large swath of unincorporated areas
along the coast, is also in the process
of creating rules to allow indoor pot
grows in greenhouses.
Officials have stopped short of con-
sidering dispensaries, instead opting
to focus on commercial cultivation
first. The effort has been touted as hav-
ing the potential to revive dwindling
agricultural businesses, particularly
those suffering from steep internation-
al competition in the cut flower indus-
try.
Half Moon Bay Mayor Debbie
Ruddock said there are perspectives on
both sides and noted citizens became
more involved leading up to the con-
sideration of a draft ordinance. She
agreed a measured approach and educa-
tion is important to address concerns
surrounding nuisance, property values,
safety and environmental issues.
Still, there could be benefits to
allowing commercial cultivation in
limited areas, she explained.
Im interested in supporting a sus-
tainable agriculture model on the coast,
providing additional revenue for the
city to provide a counterweight to our
overreliance on [hotel] tax from the
lodging industry. But it all has to be
balanced. We have to have a sensible

approach that doesnt overwhelm the
community, Ruddock said.
Community petition
Jane Yuster, superintendent of the
Cabrillo Unified School District, said
several parents have started a petition
opposing the proposal and she is urg-
ing officials to slow down and think
carefully.
Weve asked the city to take its time
and thoroughly study the issue before it
makes its decision and not to rush into
anything in a hasty fashion. Were of
course concerned about proximity to
our schools and the security issues to
make sure this is safe, Yuster said.
While some are asking for more
time, others have remained opposed to
any commercial operations and a peti-
tion with 344 signatures calls for a
moratorium for at least the next few
years. The district oversees schools in
Half Moon Bay as well as some unin-
corporated areas of the coastside and
Yuster said she is following whats
going on at the county level as well.
The county has released a draft ordi-
nance for public review that would
allow commercial cultivation in green-
houses on the coastside. The proposal
sets up a rigorous application process
that includes background checks,
ensuring surveillance and safety equip-
ment is set up, and requires a review
with Environmental Health,
Agriculture as well as Building and
Planning departments. The county has
jurisdiction over lands surrounding
Half Moon Bay, including a number of
greenhouses on State Route 92 and the
communities of El Granada, Moss
Beach, Montara and Pescadero.
Varied approaches
Currently, the county and Half Moon
Bay have moratoriums in place pro-
hibiting commercial operations until
new rules are approved. Communities
across the county have taken varied
approaches, such as Foster City and
San Mateo enacting stringent regula-
tions prohibiting even medicinal mari-
juana smoking in multi-family
dwellings. Most cities have also
banned outdoor growing for personal
use.
Countywide, voters approved

rate than the statewide average. The

States legal pot countdown: Whats coming by 2018?
Michael Blood
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES California has pub-
lished the rules that will govern its legal
marijuana economy in 2018, giving busi-
nesses and consumers a glimpse into the
future.
But there are important steps before
legal recreational sales kick off on Jan. 1,
and even more uncertainties about how the
marketplace will function. Warning: Dont
count on being able to stroll into your
local dispensary on New Years Day to cel-
ebrate with a pot cookie or joint.
Why are
regulations important?
They form the framework of the new pot
economy, estimated to be worth $7 bil-
lion. Can you make animal-shaped edi-
bles? No. Transport pot in a drone? No. But
retailers can be open from 6 a.m. to 10
p. m. Its a dense stack of rules that
includes fees for licensing (nearly
$80,000 annually for a large grower), how
pot will be traced from seed to sale and
testing requirements to ensure customers
get what they pay for.
Can I buy
recreational pot Jan. 1?
For most people, probably not. It will
vary place to place, but many cities are not
prepared. Even though the state regula-
tions went out Thursday, the Bureau of
Cannabis Control is still developing an
online system for businesses to apply for
operating licenses. California is working
out technical bugs and hopes it will be
ready in early December.
There certainly will be licenses issued
on Jan. 1, said Alex Traverso of the
Bureau of Cannabis Control.
But theres a snag: To apply for a state
license, a grower or seller first needs a
STATE THE DAILY JOURNAL
local permit, and many cities are strug-
gling to establish those rules, including
Los Angeles and San Francisco, two of the
biggest markets.
I think the state dropped the ball big
