Lunar eclipse, blue moon, supermoon converge
By Anna Schuessler
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Those who may have missed the
solar eclipse casting a shadow
over the Peninsula in August will
get another chance to redeem
themselves as three rare sightings
of the moon converge Wednesday
morning.
In what experts are calling a rare
calendar coincidence, residents
will be able to observe a lunar
eclipse, the second of January’s
two full moons, or a blue moon,
and an up-close view, also known
as a supermoon, all in one day.
And they’ll be able to observe the
phenomena, which includes a red-
dish color overtaking the glowing
orb, just by looking west toward
the horizon, no special viewing
glasses or telescopes necessary.
By requiring no special tools of
its viewers, the unusual lunar
sighting is one of the most demo-
cratic of its kind, said Andrew
Fraknoi, emeritus professor of
astronomy at Foothill College.
But there’s a catch —
Wednesday’s celestial phenomena
are set to begin as early as 3:48
a. m. when the partial eclipse
begins, favoring early risers and
those with a clear line of sight to
the ocean.
“The bad news is you have to get
up in the morning,” he said. “And
you have to get up pretty early.”
With a total eclipse of the
Earth’s shadow over the moon
lasting 76 minutes, from 4:52
a.m. to 6:08 a.m., Fraknoi said the
upcoming lunar event affords a
more casual experience for those
hoping to get a glimpse of it than
the solar eclipse causing a stir this
summer.

San Carlos cafe to close amid station construction
By Anna Schuessler
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
After 34 years of welcoming those travel-
ing through the San Carlos Caltrain station,
the Depot Cafe will be closing in less than
three weeks.
On Feb. 18, owner Mary Noviscky and her
family will be readying their last orders of
omelets and sandwiches for the many gener-
ations of patrons who have become regulars
at the breakfast and lunch restaurant.
Reflecting on the many early mornings
and customers who have grown up in her
restaurant over the years, Noviscky said the
decision to close the restaurant was heart-
breaking.
“This is kind of like our second home and
a second home for many, many of our cus-
tomers,” she said.
But for Noviscky, the changes taking
shape around the building she has leased for
years have been taking a toll on her busi-
ness. Ever since crews have broken ground
on new parking lots serving the station
early last year, Noviscky said her patrons
have been hard pressed to find parking near
her business in the historic building.
Noviscky said the 12 spots previously
available to her patrons have been cut down
to six, which she said have been moved
around as a new transit center has gone up
adjacent to her business. Aimed at provid-
ing commuter parking and designated drop-
off zones for multiple modes of transporta-
tion, construction of the San Carlos Transit
Center has been managed by SamTrans. The
project has been in the works alongside a
202-apartment, eight-building project
dubbed the San Carlos Transit Village for
several years since the housing develop-

ment was approved in 2013.
Because many of Noviscky’s regular cus-
tomers are seniors, have physical disabili-
ties or families with small children, the
changes to the parking her customers relied
on are among the many factors she consid-
ered when she made the decision to close her
restaurant.
According to SamTrans spokesman Dan
Lieberman, the agency has worked to pro-
tect the business from the impact of con-
struction by reducing rent and ensuring the
restaurant had the closest available spots as
different sections of the parking lot were
closed during construction.

Motorcyclist killed
in Highway 101 crash
A 37-year-old Hayward man has been
identified as the victim of a fatal collision
on Highway 101 in Redwood City early
Monday morning, according to the San
Mateo County Coroner’s Office.
Edwin Sandoval was driving a Harley-
Davidson motorcycle going north on
Highway 101 south of Whipple Avenue
when he crashed into the right rear of a
GMC van as a result of speeding between
the middle and second to the right-hand
lanes just before 1:45 a.m., according to
California Highway Patrol spokesman
Officer Art Montiel.
The impact pushed Sandoval’s motorcy-
cle into the second lane from the right, at
which point it collided with a Honda,
Montiel said.
When the Harley and Honda collided,
Sandoval was ejected from the motorcycle
and was consequently hit by a Toyota trav-
eling in the middle lane.
Montiel said Sandoval was pushed by
momentum all the way into the farthest left
lane of northbound Highway 101.
Responding officers were called at 1:48
a.m. and performed CPR on Sandoval upon
arrival until fire officials could arrive, but
he was pronounced dead at the scene.
An on-scene investigation closed all
lanes of northbound Highway 101 for an
hour, Montiel said.
Montiel said that all lanes were reopened
by 5:21 a.m. in time for commute traffic.
The CHP is investigating the case, and
Montiel said that it does appear that impair-
ment may have been a factor in the colli-
sion.
Anyone who witnessed the collision or
has information about it should call CHP
Officer Daniel Scott at (650) 369-6261.
SamTrans makes changes,
holding meetings on transit study
The San Mateo County Transit District
has implemented suggestions for improve-
ments recommended in a recent study, and
will hold two meetings to get public feed-
back on the study, transit officials said.
In response to the Coastside Transit
Study, the transit district began operating
the SamTrans Route 118 express bus to con-
nect with the Daly City BART station and
offering an additional evening trip for the
same route.
Other changes are in the works, transit
officials said.
The upcoming meetings will be held,
first, at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday at the Grand Oak
Room, Ted Adcock Community Center at
535 Kelly Ave. in Half Moon Bay.
The second meeting will take place at 6
p.m. Thursday at the auditorium of the
Pacifica Community Center at 540 Crespi
Drive in Pacifica.

Officers arrived at the scene and found a

Police investigated and learned that the

struck by a silver SUV that was turning

According to police, the driver stopped
his car and briefly spoke to the victim
before driving away from the scene.
He was described as a white man, 45 to 50
years old, 5 feet 10 inches tall with a medi-

was wearing a blue T-shirt and had a tattoo
on his arm, police said.

Best Buy gets first-ever
sheriff’s crime prevention award
The San Mateo County Sheriff’s Office
on Wednesday honored a San Carlos busi-
ness with its first-ever Sheriff’s Crime
Prevention Award, law enforcement offi-
cials said.
Best Buy in San Carlos was honored for
what sheriff’s officials described as out-
standing efforts and initiatives designed to
prevent crime in the store and keep its cus-
tomers from being victimized.
“Over the years, it has been clear to us
that Best Buy takes crime prevention and
the security of customers very seriously,”
said San Mateo County Sheriff Carlos
Bolanos in a statement.
The Sheriff’s Office created the award as
part of an ongoing effort to increase com-
munity awareness about crime prevention
and to help encourage others to protect
themselves, their businesses and their fam-
ilies.

Congress passes bill stemming
from sexual abuse of athletes
By Kevin Freking
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Congress fol-
lowed up on the sex abuse scandal
involving sports doctor Larry Nassar
by passing legislation Monday that
requires governing bodies for amateur
athletics to promptly report abuse
claims to law enforcement.
Nassar was sentenced last week to
up to 175 years in prison for sexually
abusing more than 150 women and
girls over 25 years.
The sentencing sparked new calls
from lawmakers to complete action
on legislation that had already
received widespread support in both
chambers of Congress. The House
agreed to take up the Senate version
of the bill to speed up its passage. The
bill passed by a vote of 406-3 and
went to President Donald Trump for
his signature.
Supporters of the bill, sponsored
by Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif.,
said a patchwork of state laws on
reporting suspected sex abuse made it
necessary to enact a uniform national
standard that would apply to amateur
sports groups such as USA
Gymnastics as well as to other sports
organizations that participate in
interstate and international travel.
The failure to report a sexual abuse
allegation could lead to up to one year
in prison.
Court: Immigrant children don’t have right to free lawyer
By Sudhin Thanawala
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO — Immigrant
children are not entitled to attorneys
paid for by the government when fac-
ing deportation, a federal appeals court
ruled Monday.
The judges rejected a claim by the
American Civil Liberties Union and
immigrant groups that children have a
constitutional due process right to a
free attorney.
A system already exists to give the
children a fair hearing, and requiring
the government to provide free attor-
neys would be an expense that would
“strain an already overextended immi-
gration system,” a three-judge panel of
STATE/NATION
Larry Nassar, a former team USA Gymnastics doctor who pleaded guilty in
November 2017 to sexual assault charges, is escorted into the courtroom during
his sentencing hearing in Lansing, Mich.
Lawmakers who spoke in favor of
the bill said that Nassar’s victims
were failed by the people who were
supposed to protect them.
“How a serial predator like Dr.
Nassar could have preyed on so many
young girls for a long time in such a
flagrant fashion is appalling,” said
Rep. Ted Poe, R-Texas.
During House debate on the bill,
Poe read from the testimony that
some of the gymnasts delivered at last
week’s sentencing hearing and
the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals
said.
The plaintiffs said many of the thou-
sands of children the government
seeks to deport each year appear before
judges without a lawyer because they
can’t afford one or find one to take
their cases for free.
The result is an unfair process that
pits children with no ability to navi-
gate complex legal issues against sea-
soned government attorneys, the
groups say.
Ahilan Arulanantham, legal director
at the ACLU of Southern California,
said the group had not decided its next
step.
“The statistical evidence, which the
court acknowledged, is that children

resentation,” he said.
The 9th Circuit considered a case
filed by a 13-year-old boy identified
only as “C.J.” who fled Honduras with
his mother after facing death threats,
including a gun to his head, when he
refused to join a gang.
They arrived in the U.S. in 2014, and
the boy was placed in deportation pro-
ceedings three months later.
An immigration judge told the boy’s
mother he had a right to an attorney,
but she said she did not have money,
according to the court ruling. The case
went forward without an attorney, and
the judge rejected the boy’s asylum
application.

Facebook says it will prioritize local news posts
SELMA, Ala. — Facebook plans to prioritize posts from
local news sources in the news feeds of people who live in
the communities served by those outlets,
the company said Monday.
Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg told
The Selma Times-Journal on Monday
that the decision stems from a cross-
country tour he took with his wife in
which he spoke with people in communi-
ties of different sizes. They visited the
small community newspaper in Alabama
Mark on last year’s trip.
Zuckerberg told the newspaper people
Zuckerberg
consistently told him they wanted more
local news on Facebook. Zuckerberg said the prioritization
of local news sources is part of an effort to help people
engage with the communities where they live.
“There’s a lot of research that suggests that people who
read local news are more engaged in their community and
they’re more likely to engage in civic improvements,”
Zuckerberg told the newspaper. “The more informed you are
about issues in your community, the more empowered you
are to get involved and make a change.”
The Menlo Park company said in a news release that it
identifies local publishers as those clicked on by readers in
tight geographic areas.
Some in GOP heed call to
return Wynn money, post-allegations
Some Republicans in Congress are donating their contri-
butions from Las Vegas billionaire Steve Wynn to charity
in light of sexual misconduct allegations
against the former Republican National
Committee finance chairman.
The announcements come in light of a
Wall Street Journal report Friday that
Wynn, a casino mogul and prolific
Republican donor, sexually harassed
several women. Wynn, chairman and
CEO of Wynn Resorts, has denied the
allegations
Steve Wynn Wynn’s home-state senator Dean
Heller, who is running for re-election
this year, is donating the $5,400 his campaign received last
year from the casino mogul to a yet-determined charity,
campaign aides said Monday. A spokeswoman for Sen. Rob
Portman said the Ohio Republican would donate the $5,400
his campaign received from Wynn for his 2016 campaign to
charities aimed at stemming human sex-trafficking.
Aides to House Speaker Paul Ryan confirmed he would
donate $1,000 from a Wynn-related business group to a
Wisconsin homelessness charity. Rep. Karen Handel of
Georgia, who won a special election last year, was giving
the $2,700 her campaign received from Wynn to a Georgia
charity for sexual and domestic abuse victims.

The amount of money being squirreled away in
401(k) and IRA plans has increased 10 percent
in the past year, aided by that strong stock
performance, according to the financial firm
Fidelity Investments.Trump has said people often
approach him to thank him for the boom in their
retirement nest eggs.
The average 401(k) balance was $99,000 in the
third quarter of 2017, up 10 percent from the
average $90,900 balance in the same July-
August-September period of 2016.
The average balance in individual retirement
accounts, or IRAs, rose to $103,500 in the third
quarter of 2017, up from $94,000 in 2016.
MILITARY/SECURITY
Trump has expanded America’s war-footing, both
in the number of troops deployed to war zones
and in their ability to conduct offensive
operations.
As his term wrapped up, President Barack Obama
was withdrawing forces from Afghanistan as he
eyed an end to the war. In a reversal, Trump has
approved sending in more troops and giving
them greater authority to go after members of
the Taliban and other insurgent groups.
U.S. forces in Afghanistan currently number
around 14,000, a 75 percent increase from the
8,400 forces there as of December 2016.
The Obama administration had capped the
number of troops in Iraq at 5,262. Because of
Iraqi government sensitivities, the U.S. continues
to say publicly that roughly 5,200 troops are
there, when the actual number is now about
7,000.
Obama had capped the number of troops in
Syria at 503. About 2,000 are there now.
UNEMPLOYMENT
More people are working or actively seeking
employment. The unemployment rate was 4.8
percent in January 2017, the month Trump was
sworn into office, according to the federal Bureau
of Labor Statistics. The rate has fallen steadily
since then to 4.1 percent in October, where it
remained through December, continuing a trend
of falling unemployment that began under
Obama. Obama took office at the depths of the
Great Recession, when the economy was
shedding hundreds of thousands of jobs every
month.
The unemployment report for January 2018 will
be released Friday.
The economy added slightly more than 2 million
jobs in Trump’s first year, a figure that is close to
the 2.2 million jobs created during Obama’s final
year in office.
RACE RELATIONS
More people think race relations have worsened
since Trump’s election in November 2016. Back
then, 25 percent of those surveyed by the Pew
Research Center expressed optimism that having
the politically inexperienced New York
businessman in the Oval Office would improve
relations between the races. By December 2017,
the percentage who felt that way had sunk to 8
percent, according to Pew. Forty-six percent in
the November 2016 survey said Trump’s election
would worsen relations. That figure grew to 60
percent by last December.
Trump has weathered a number of racially
charged controversies as a candidate and since
taking office, including saying there were “very
fine people”on both sides of a white supremacist
protest and counterprotest in Charlottesville,
Virginia, last summer. He most recently dismissed
African countries by using a vulgarity that
describes a filthy toilet.
NATIONAL DEBT
In Trump’s first year in office, the national debt
grew by $546.4 billion. In 2016, Obama’s final
year, the national debt grew by $1.01 trillion.The
debt would have grown more in 2017 if not for
the fact that the Trump administration is
constrained by reaching the debt ceiling of $20.5
trillion. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin has
been using various accounting maneuvers to
keep Uncle Sam from going over the debt limit.
Mnuchin will lose the ability to use these
techniques in late February or early March, at
which time lawmakers and the White House
must agree on a plan to increase the borrowing
limit so the government won’t default on its
obligations.
TRADE DEFICITS
Trump made America’s trade deficits with China
and other countries a central tenet of his
campaign, vowing to move toward trade that
he deems fair and reciprocal to protect the U.S.
from being taken advantage of financially.Within
days of taking office in 2017, Trump pulled the
U.S. out of a sweeping trade pact with 11 Pacific
Rim nations. He is renegotiating NAFTA, a
decades-old agreement with Canada and
Mexico, as well as a separate, bilateral trade pact
with South Korea.
The deficit in goods and services was $513.6
billion from January through November 2017.
That’s 11.6 percent higher than the $460.2 billion
deficit recorded for the same period in 2016, the
final year of Obama’s term. The deficit for all of
2016 was $504.8 billion, and the 2017 figure
already exceeds that with December’s total still
to be counted.
The deficit in goods with China was $116.7 billion
for the first 11 months of 2017, up 12.3 percent
from the same period in 2016.
With Mexico, the deficit was $65.7 billion, 9.6
percent higher than the same period in 2016.
OPIOID EPIDEMIC
Drug overdose deaths have continued to climb.
Provisional data through June 2017 show a 16
percent increase over the previous 12-month
period, according to the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention, with nearly 67,000
deaths from July 2016 to June 2017. Opioids
account for about two-thirds of overdose deaths.
For the first time, the powerful painkiller fentanyl
and its close chemical cousins played a bigger
role in deaths in 2016 than any other legal or
illegal drug, surpassing other opioids like
prescription pain pills and heroin. In December,
the CDC said drug overdose deaths had for a
second straight year cut into how long
Americans are expected to live.
If the Trump administration made any progress
on this front, it was mostly in public awareness.
A presidential task force, a White House speech
and the declaration of a public health emergency
shined a spotlight on the number of overdose
deaths, but critics say Trump’s gestures are mostly
symbolic without new funding from Congress.
The White House Office of National Drug Control
Policy remains without a permanent director
after Trump’s first pick withdrew.

Can Trump stick to a script beyond the State of the Union? By Jonthan Lemire
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — No natural orator,
President Donald Trump has nonetheless
shown at times that he can deliver a power-
ful speech that effectively outlines his
vision, strikes an emotional chord and
moves commentators to declare that he, at
last, looks presidential. And then the
teleprompter gets turned off.
Time and again, Trump has followed up a
well-received, stuck-to-the-script address
with moments of wild indiscipline, quickly
losing any momentum in a controversy of
his own making. His first State of the Union
address on Tuesday will be the biggest test yet
of his ability to not just deliver a stately
speech but also to then stay on track as the
White House rolls out policies building on it.
“He has little message discipline,” said
Ari Fleischer, former press secretary for
President George W. Bush. “Virtually every
REUTERS time he moves the ball far down the field, he
Donald Trump delivers remarks after participating in the swearing-in ceremony for the seems to derail himself with a tweet days
Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services Alex Azar at the White House. later instead of building on the momentum.”
The State of the Union is a big set piece
for any president, a chance to showcase the
accomplishments of the past year while set-
ting the tone for the next one. Every word is
meticulously vetted, every presidential
guest is carefully chosen and each moment
is painstakingly rehearsed. For Trump,
dogged by low poll numbers and the per-
sistent Russia probe, the speech carries par-
ticular importance. “It’s one of the few
events presidents conduct in which 30 to 40
million or more Americans are watching,”
Fleischer said. “There is hardly another
moment of presidential exposure as big as
this one, and it’s one when the president
and his staff have all the control. They are
not reacting to events. They are controlling
them, and they need to deliver.”
Last Feb. 27, Trump indeed delivered when
he gave his first address to a joint session of
Congress. The speech came amid a period of
crisis for the young administration —
national security adviser Michael Flynn had
been dismissed days earlier — and amid
questions about whether Trump had the abil-
ity and temperament to lead the nation.

Trump’s SOTU guests include welder, parents of gang victims

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — President Donald
Trump’s guests for his State of the Union
speech Tuesday include an Ohio welder who
will benefit from his tax overhaul plan and
the parents of two Long Island teenagers
who were believed to be killed by MS-13
gang members.
Among his other guests are rescuers who
battled wildfires in California and flooding
in Texas, as well as a Marine who re-enlisted
after losing his legs and going blind from a
roadside bomb.
The guests will be seated in the box of first
lady Melania Trump. Many have been select-
ed to amplify the speech’s theme, which
White House officials have said is “building
a safe, strong and proud America.”
The president’s address to Congress last
year took an emotional turn when he intro-
duced the widow of a Navy SEAL killed in a
raid in Yemen.
The full list of attendees, according to the
White House:
• Corey Adams, a welder in Dayton, Ohio,
who plans to invest his extra savings from
the tax overhaul plan into his daughters’ edu-
cation fund.
• Elizabeth Alvarado and Robert Mickens,
the parents of Nisa Mickens, and Evelyn
Rodriguez and Freddy Cuevas, the parents of
Kayla Cuevas. Nisa and Kayla’s 2016 slay-
ings were attributed to the MS-13 gang.
• Retired Cpl. Matthew Bradford, who
stepped on a roadside bomb in 2007 while
deployed in Iraq. He was blinded and lost his
legs. After surgery, he re-enlisted in the
Marine Corps, becoming the first blind, dou-
ble amputee to do so.
• Jon Bridgers, founder of the Cajun Navy,
a nonprofit rescue and recovery group that
provided aid to people in Texas affected by
Hurricane Harvey.
• David Dahlberg, a Southern California
firefighter who saved 62 children and staff
members from a wildfire that had encircled
their camp.
• Officer Ryan Holets, a policeman in
Albuquerque, New Mexico, who with his wife
adopted a baby from parents who suffered
from opioid addiction.
• Ashlee Leppert, a Coast Guard technician
who rescued dozens of people during last
year’s storms.
• Celestino “CJ” Martinez, a supervisory
special agent for Immigration and Customs
Enforcement’s Homeland Security
Investigations unit whose investigations
have led to more than 100 arrests of MS-13
gang members.
• Staff Sgt. Justin Peck, a soldier credited
with saving the life of Chief Petty Officer
Kenton Stacy after a roadside bomb exploded
in Syria in November.
• Preston Sharp, who launched the Flag and
Flower Challenge to decorate the graves of
fallen soldiers.
• Steve Staub and Sandy Keplinger, the
owners of a Dayton, Ohio, manufacturing
company that gave their employees a larger-
than-expected Christmas bonus after the
GOP tax law was enacted.

FBI’s McCabe, frequent Trump

target, abruptly leaves post
By Eric Tucker and Sadie Gurman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — FBI Deputy Director
Andrew McCabe, a target of frequent and
aggressive criticism by President Donald
Trump, abruptly stepped down from his
position Monday ahead of his planned
retirement this spring.
A 22-year veteran of the FBI, McCabe has
been publicly and repeatedly lambasted
over the past year by Trump, who has
accused him of bias because of his wife’s
political connections and an FBI investiga-
tion that produced no criminal charges
against Hillary Clinton.
McCabe, who has held a number of FBI
leadership roles and been heavily involved
in investigations into major crimes includ-
ing the 2013 Boston Marathon bombing,
becomes eligible for retirement in a matter
of weeks. FBI staff learned Monday that
McCabe was leaving the bureau’s No. 2 post
effective immediately, according to people
who spoke only on condition of anonymity
to discuss an internal personnel move. He is
expected to retire with full pension bene-
fits.
The departure comes as FBI Director
Christopher Wray makes changes to his
senior leadership team, replacing two other
top aides last week. Such changes are not
unusual when a new director takes charge,
but they are notable amid Trump’s public
pressure on Wray to get rid of officials who
were confidants of James Comey, whom he
fired as FBI director last May.
In a message Monday to FBI employees,
Wray said McCabe would be retiring on
March 18 and denied that the move stemmed
from political pressure.
“I will not be swayed by political or other
pressure in my decision-making,” Wray
wrote.
The exit comes amid multiple ongoing
investigations, including a Justice
Department watchdog probe into the
actions of McCabe and other top FBI offi- REUTERS FILE PHOTO

Koch brothers warm to Trump policies, not behavior

By Steve Peoples
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
INDIAN WELLS — For the Koch brothers
and their powerful donor network, the trou-
ble with President Donald Trump isn’t what
he’s doing. It’s how he’s doing it.
Huddled at a private retreat in the
California desert, the conservative move-
ment’s moneyed elite worried aloud this
weekend that the Republican president’s
undisciplined behavior is clouding his
achievements — and making it harder for the
GOP to protect its grip on Congress heading
into the 2018 midterms.
“President Trump is not helping get many
Republicans elected,” said Tom Shepherd, a
Cincinnati-based businessman who joined
roughly 550 Koch donors at a private retreat
in the California desert this weekend. “I
think he’s doing more harm than good
because he’s distracting people from the good
work which is happening, which is either
happening because of him or in spite of him.”
The frustration with the unorthodox presi-
dent comes as the Kochs begin to implement
their strategy to protect Republican majori-
ties in the House and Senate this fall.
The GOP has no more powerful ally than the
vast political and policy network assembled
by the Midwestern industrialist icons, long
demonized by the left and revered by the right
for their short- and long-term efforts to
reshape American politics and culture.
The Koch network’s chief lieutenants
renewed their vow this weekend to spend up to
$400 million on politics and policy to shape
November’s midterm elections nationwide.
That’s more than the combined resources
spent by the Republican National
Committee, the National Rifle Association
and the Chamber of Commerce in the 2016
election cycle.
They outlined plans on Monday to spend
big on political advertising now through the
end of July on as many as 14 key Senate
races and 15 gubernatorial elections. Their
goal: Flood the airwaves with political mes-
saging early to help shape voters’ opinions
long before the election season’s final
months.
“We need to be on offense starting now,”
said Emily Seidel, CEO of the Kochs’ politi-
cal arm, Americans for Prosperity.
She said the network has already decided to
play in Senate contests in Wisconsin,
Indiana, Missouri and Florida — all seats
held by vulnerable Democrats. They expect
to be active in many more. And on gover-
nor’s races, they’re targeting Nevada,
Wisconsin, Illinois, Michigan and Florida
to start.
The investment includes $20 million to
help sell the recently adopted tax overhaul to
a skeptical American public through a series
of public rallies, phone banking and paid
advertising.
Despite the extraordinary investment, the
men and women who filled the luxury resort
outside Palm Springs for a three-day retreat
that ended Monday acknowledged a difficult
road ahead.

President Trump’s new tariffs
The Wall Street Journal
C
an Donald Trump stand prosperi-
ty? Fresh from a government shut-
down victory and with the U.S.
economy on a roll, the President decided
last week to kick off his long-promised war
on imports — and American consumers.
This isn’t likely to go the way Mr. Trump
imagines.
“Our action today helps to create jobs in
America for Americans,” Mr. Trump
declared as he imposed tariffs on solar cells
and washing machines. “You’re going to
have a lot of plants built in the United
States that were thinking of coming, but
they would never have come unless we did
this.”
The scary part is he really seems to
believe this. And toward that end he
imposed a new 30 percent tariff on crys-
talline silicon photovoltaic cells and solar
modules to benefit two bankrupt compa-
nies, and a new 20 percent to 50 percent
tariff on washing machines to benefit
Whirlpool Corp. The tariffs will hurt many
more companies and people, and that’s
before other countries retaliate.
The solar tariff is a response to a petition
filed at the International Trade Commission
by two U.S.-based manufacturers —
Chinese-owned Suniva, which filed for
bankruptcy last year, and German-owned
SolarWorld Americas, whose parent compa-
ny filed for bankruptcy last year. Under
Section 201 of U.S. trade law, the compa-
nies don’t need to show evidence of dump-
ing or foreign subsidies. They merely have
to show they were hurt by imports, which
Letters to the editor
Foster City levee project
Editor,
Please repeat the August 2017 opinion
poll of support for the levee project.
Has sentiment changed? If the measure
looks like it may fail, what change in mes-
sage is needed?
Survey results are at fostercityca.civic-
clerk.com/Web/GenFile.aspx?ad=9162.
The previous city-sponsored poll showed
initial support for the levee at 72 percent
“yes,” 23 percent “no,” and 5 percent
“undecided.” The consultant told the city:
“Initial support is above the two-thirds
threshold needed to pass.”
But, after providing information about
the project, the support dropped to: 64 per-
cent “yes,” 34 percent “no” and 2 percent
“undecided.” Since the measure will take a
66.6 percent “yes” vote, it may be difficult
to pass.
What is important, here, is that the
approval rating dropped as more informa-
tion was provided.
Now, much more information has been
provided. Now is the time for the city to re-
survey residents and find out if support for
the measure has strengthened. Note the
number of voters who were “undecided” was
small. New “yes” votes would have to come

is to say by competition.
The two companies once employed some
3,200 Americans. But the wider solar indus-
try, which depends on price-competitive
cells as a basic component, supports some
260,000 U.S. jobs. Costs will rise immedi-
ately for this value-added part of the indus-
try, which the Solar Energy Industries
Association (SEIA) says includes the manu-
facture of “metal racking, high tech invert-
ers, machines that improve solar output by
tracking the sun and other electrical prod-
ucts.”
The Journal reported Tuesday that the
Trump tariff may spur an unnamed panel
manufacturer to invest in a new plant in
Florida that will create 800 new jobs. But
SEIA says it expects that the tariff will cost
23,000 U.S. jobs this year alone. It will
also mean that billions of dollars of solar
investments are likely to be postponed or
canceled. Utility companies facing green-
energy mandates from state governments
will also suffer as it gets more costly to
deliver solar-produced electricity.
Mr. Trump will also make doing the laun-
dry great again, or at least more expensive,
with a new 20 percent tariff on the first 1.2
million imported washing machines every
year. Above that the tariff will go to 50
percent. Don’t even think about assem-
bling a washer with foreign parts, which
get whacked with a 50 percent tariff above
50,000 imported units in the first year.
Goldman Sachs analyst Samuel Eisner
wrote Tuesday that consumers can expect
price increases for new machines of 8 per-
from those who said they were opposed to
the measure. If the percentage of “undecid-
ed” people is now larger than before, it
would indicate that the information cam-
paign has not reduced the percentage of
“undecided” voters.
The statement “ I trust the Foster City
government to properly manage tax dol-
lars” received 65 percent, less than the
two-thirds vote required, to pass this meas-
ure.
Now is the time for the city to assess
support for the measure and make any nec-
essary adjustments to get the bond levee
passed.

cent to 20 percent depending on how much
of the tariff the manufacturers decide to eat.
Producers and workers are also losers. LG
Electronics USA noted Tuesday that its new
plant to make washers in Clarksville,
Tenn., will be “the most advanced factory
in the world” but warned that the tariff
“hinders the ramp-up of the new plant and
threatens many new U.S. jobs.”
Manufacturers will also lose flexibility in
sourcing parts, which is critical to compet-
itiveness. In South Carolina, where
Samsung has a new $380 million appliance
plant, the Trump tariffs aren’t welcome.
Republican Gov. Henry McMaster is wor-
ried they’ll hurt the investment climate and
invite retaliation.
Mr. Trump conducts trade policy as if
U.S. trading partners have no recourse.
With exports of $30.9 billion in 2016 and
among the country’s highest level of
exports per capita, South Carolina knows
better. By justifying tariffs solely on the
failure to compete, Mr. Trump is inviting
other countries to do the same for their
struggling companies. Their case at the
World Trade Organization will also be a
layup, allowing legal retaliation against
U.S. exports.
By the way, if Mr. Trump thinks these
new border taxes will hurt China, he’s mis-
taken again. China ran a distant fourth as a
producer of solar cell and modules for the
U.S. in 2017, after Malaysia, South Korea
and Vietnam. Korea and Mexico are the two
largest exporters of washing machines to
the U.S. Mr. Trump’s tariffs are an econom-
ic blunderbuss that will hit America’s
friends abroad and Mr. Trump’s forgotten
men and women at home.

Now couple this with a $3 toll increase we

really cannot fix the problem because pop-
ulation is increasing, traffic through the
county is increasing and, no matter what
they do, people are going to be heavily
dependent on single user automobiles. In
my opinion, first solve the inoperable
problems before putting another tax meas-

Don’t take women
voters for granted
F
emale voters today represent
arguably the most politically active
demographic in our nation. Don’t
take my word for it. According to a study
conducted by the Center for Women and
Politics at Rutgers University, women have
exceeded voter turnout rates for men by 4
million to 7 million votes in elections for
the past 15 years.
This trend is no accident. Women not
only account for more than half of the U.S.
population, but have also attained more
graduate and doctoral degrees than men have
over the last
three decades,
according to a
report by the
Russell Sage
Foundation. As a
result, female
votes are a linch-
pin in national
and local elec-
tions. News pun-
dits such as
Charlie Cook
suggest that the
GOP’s struggle Jonathan Madison
to deliver a con-
sistent message that resonates with women
was likely one of the deciding factors in
presidential elections prior to 2016. You’re
probably not surprised yet, but read on.
It appears that the heart of the GOP’s mes-
sage gap for women is the lack of female
representation in the party, and the fact that
some women do not feel represented enough
on issues that women care most about. Also,
the “war on women” charges leveled against
Republicans by the Democratic party cer-
tainly adds fuel to the flame.
Unfortunately, both parties often discuss
women as a mere voting bloc, which tends
to offend female voters. Abortion, contra-
ception, equal work and pay are all very
important issues, but they are unfortunately
tools leveraged by large interest groups
with the purpose of swaying segments of
the female vote to the political “left” or
“right.” Such agendas have a tendency to
make female voters feel disenfranchised. So,
what’s the solution?
The first step ought to be to develop a
concrete and consistent platform on
women’s issues. According to a Washington
Post article, U.S. Rep. Cathy McMorris
Rodgers, R-Spokane, Wash., a woman in
leadership who has taken a leading role in
bridging the gap between women and the
GOP, said: “We need to make sure everyone
in this country understands, the Republican
vision is one that is about is about empow-
ering you, the belief that you will make bet-
ter decisions for yourself … than the federal
government ever will.”
It goes without saying that both married
and single working women care about jobs
and the economy. After all, a thriving econ-
omy and healthy job prospects are funda-
mental to a sustainable household income,
which provides support for a family. Here,
the GOP should leverage the policies of
President Ronald Reagan that promoted con-
ditions for a thriving economy, such as
reducing tax burdens on working Americans,
and reducing excess government regulations
that stifle businesses, restraining job
growth.
The party must avoid seeking the political
approval of female voters simply because
they represent a large bloc of the voting
population. The party must meaningfully
demonstrate why we are one that provides a
place for hard-working women everywhere
— CEOs, single college and graduate stu-
dents, and single and married working moth-
ers. And, given that women generally face
more obstacles to achieve success in life,
the party should begin to consider embrac-
ing the platform of equal pay for equal work
for women everywhere.
This is the first step in a long process of
proving the party’s worth to female voters
— and to all voters. The party must strive to
provide a path for prosperity for every
American — regardless of their race, creed
and circumstance — for a better life. I have
faith that the GOP can achieve such a worthy
goal, but not without fine-tuning the plat-
form to focus on the issues discussed.

Technology companies lead modest pullback

By Alex Veiga
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
A broad sell-off handed the U.S.
stock market its biggest loss in
more than four months Monday,
pulling the major indexes below
their recent record highs.
Technology stocks, the biggest
gainers in 2017, accounted for
much of the slide. Energy compa-
nies also fell as crude oil prices
finished lower. Utilities and other
rate-sensitive sectors declined as
bond yields hit their highest level
in almost four years.
Investors weighed the latest
company earnings and deal news,
including Keurig’s acquisition of
Dr. Pepper Snapple for $16.6 bil-
lion, including debt, and looked
ahead to a busy week of corporate
news and economic data.
The pullback followed a big
rally on Friday, which gave the
stock market its biggest single-
day gain since March 2017.

ly good run and people are taking

dent of trading & derivatives at

Fed is likely to hold rates steady
at Janet Yellen’s final meeting
By Martin Crutsinger
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Janet Yellen’s final
Federal Reserve policy meeting will likely
bring an uneventful end this week to her four-
year tenure as Fed chair but perhaps offer
hints of the central bank’s approach to inter-
est rates in the months to follow.
Yellen, the first woman to lead the world’s
most influential central bank, will step down
when her term expires at the end of this week.
She will be succeeded by Jerome Powell, a Fed
board member whose nomination as chair-
man the Senate approved 84-13 last week.
Powell, who has served on the central
bank’s board since 2012, is a lawyer and
investment manager by training and will be
the first Fed leader in 30 years not to hold a
Ph.D. in economics. President Donald Trump
chose Powell for the post rather than offer
Yellen a second term despite widespread
praise for her performance as chair.
The evidence so far sug-
gests that a Powell-led Fed
will generally follow the
same cautious approach to
raising interest rates that
Yellen pursued during her
tenure as Fed chair, at least
in its early months. With
the job market healthy
Janet Yellen and inflation tame, most
economists say there is
little reason for any abrupt change in Fed pol-
icy.
“Chair Yellen gets to leave on a high note,
with strong growth and low unemployment,”
said Diane Swonk, chief economist and a
managing director at audit firm Grant
Thornton.
The unemployment rate is at a 17-year low
of 4.1 percent, and the economy expanded at
a solid 2.6 percent annual rate in the October-
December quarter, helping lift growth for all
of 2017 to a decent 2.3 percent.
trying to make meat from cells
SPRINGDALE, Ark. — Tyson Foods Inc.
has invested in a food-tech startup that’s
developing methods to produce meat directly
from animal cells.
The Arkansas-based company announced
Monday that its venture capital arm, Tyson
Ventures, now has a minority stake in
Memphis Meats. The terms of the deal
haven’t been disclosed, but Memphis Meats
says it expects to use the funds to accelerate
product development.
Tyson says the investment reflects the
company’s commitment to find new, innova-
tive ways of meeting a growing global
demand for protein.
More caffeine, please: Keurig
is buying Dr Pepper Snapple
NEW YORK — Keurig is buying Dr Pepper
Snapple Group, bringing together the make-
at-home coffee brand with the company
behind Dr Pepper soda, Mott’s apple juice
and Snapple iced teas.
The combination lets the company offer
“hot and cold beverages to satisfy every con-
sumer throughout the day,” said Larry Young,
chief executive of Dr Pepper Snapple.
Keurig Dr Pepper, the combined company,
will have about $11 billion in annual sales.
That’s still far smaller than PepsiCo Inc. and
Coca-Cola Co., which had sales in 2016 of
$63 billion and $41 billion, respectively.
Shares of Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc.
soared 25 percent to $119.20 on Monday.
Keurig Green Mountain Inc., which is a pri-
vately held company, is known for its sin-
gle-serve coffee makers. It also sells coffee
pods that are sold in stores under the Green
Mountain and Donut Shop name.
Apple’s stock sinks as high
hope for iPhone X sales fade
SAN FRANCISCO — Apple’s stock is back-
tracking from its recent highs amid mounting
concerns that iPhone X sales will fall short of
the high hopes for a device that brought facial
recognition technology and a $1,000 price
tag to the company’s flagship product line.
Speculation about disappointing demand
for the iPhone X have been swirling for the
past week, contributing to a 6 percent decline
in Apple’s stock since it hit an all-time high
of $180.10 on Jan. 18. The shares lost $3.55
to close Monday at $167.96, translating
into a nearly $60 billion loss in the compa-
ny’s market value since the stock last
peaked.

Bulldogs’ comeback bid stifled — by umpires

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Just one game into their season, and it has
already been a long, strange trip for the
College of San Mateo Bulldogs.
With the California Community College
Athletic Association baseball season getting
underway last Friday, CSM seemed poised to
cap its season opener with a fairytale finish.
HMB’s greatest showman
By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Half Moon Bay put on quite a show Friday
night against boys’ basketball archrival
Terra Nova. At the forefront, proving a mas-
ter showman, was Cougars center Ethan
Menzies.
What a first half the senior enjoyed.
Menzies went for 24 points and nine
rebounds throughout, with a majority of
those numbers posted in a runaway opening
half. It just wasn’t that Menzies netted 18
points prior to halftime, though, it was the
way he did it with a performance that electri-
fied the crowd at Half Moon Bay’s new off-
campus facility at the Cabrillo Unified
School District Event Center.
It’s this combination of performance and
panache that has earned Menzies Daily
Journal of the Week honors.
Menzies and senior point guard Sam
Treanor were expected to be primetime con-
tributors when head coach John Parsons
took over the team prior to the season. Half
Moon Bay has graduated some serious talent
over the two previous seasons as the duo of
Menzies and Treanor have moved through
the ranks.
This year, they served as the foundation of
the reigning four-time Peninsula Athletic
League North Division champs.
“I knew coming into the season we’d have
Ethan and Sam, and they’re very special
players,” Parsons said. “And they’ve been
even better than I thought.”
Half Moon Bay hoops had a tough act to
follow after what the school’s football team
achieved in the fall. The gridiron Cougars
rallied for 14 straight wins, capturing the
program’s first-ever Northern California
championship and advancing to a state
championship bowl game, the team’s only
loss of the season.
What made the Cougars’ football accom-
plishment so remarkable is they did so in
no-nonsense fashion. No flash. No pizzazz.
Half Moon Bay’s historic season was built
on two simple virtues — swarming tackles
on defense, run it down opponents’ throats
on offense.

performance Friday night, Cougars hoops
are beasts of a different color.
“We’ve got a couple guys who play with
some flare, ” Parsons said. “So I keep
preaching we want to play with freedom
within a structure. I feel it’s my job to kind
of give them that structure. But give them
the freedom to be creative and use their
skills, and show their personality out on
the floor.”
Menzies’ showmanship was testament to
this. The 6-7 center rose to the occasion in
front of a capacity crowd, putting down
three slam dunks: one on a takeaway and
pass from David Billington — one of his
three assists, second only to seven assists
by Treanor — and the finale on a baseline
drive powering straight through the Terra
Nova post defense.
Amid his slam-dunk antics, Menzies added
a graceful reverse layup, driving the base-
line and under the hoop to drop a picturesque
finger-roll off the glass.
What the basketball and football teams of
Half Moon Bay have in common is the
clockwork brilliance of teamwork. And like
the football team that highlighted several
players who grew up excelling together, the
foundation of Menzies and Treanor playing
together for five years running now is the
reason they flow so well.
“We’ve just always played with each
other,” Menzies said. “So we have a bunch
of chemistry.”
playing together, but the Half Moon Bay
native Menzies made several pit stops
along the way before returning home to the
Coastside. In grade school, his family
moved north to Healdsburg. Then they relo-
cated to Rock Springs, Wyoming.
Since returning to Half Moon Bay in the
eighth grade, Menzies has built his three-
year varsity career fashioning his play, and
his leadership, after some of the Cougars
that have come before him, specifically
2015 graduate Tommy Nuño, a first-team
all-PAL North forward who also brought his
share of panache to the floor.
“Tommy Nuño, I really look up to him,”
Menzies said. “I was playing behind him
my sophomore year, my freshman year. So,
I just really look up to him. I saw him lead-
ing the team and that’s what I want to do
this year.”
The Cougars also want to take a page out
at the Northern California bracket. Unlike
the football team, Half Moon Bay hoops are
no strangers to the Nor Cal playoffs. The
Cougars first advanced to Nor Cals in 2011-
12 and have qualified for the bracket every
year since.
What stands to differentiate the 2017-18
Cougars though? It just might go back to
that football team, with three players from
it — Gavin Tomberlin, Hayden Von Almen
and Jake Quosig — having recently joined
the basketball fray.
“They brought a whole lot of energy to
practice, they brought a whole lot of inten-
sity,” Parsons said. “They brought their
spirit, their camaraderie. They’re definitely
three of our biggest characters. They bring
energy, they lighten the mood, and they
really know how to toe that line between
having fun and focusing and playing hard.”

Day triumphs on 6th playoff hole to win Farmers
By Bernie Wilson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN DIEGO — Jason Day calmly sank an

18-inch birdie putt at 8:17 a.m. Monday in
front of empty grandstands on No. 18 at
Torrey Pines for his first PGA Tour win in 20
months.
There were no roars, just cheers from Day’s
family and a handful of mates.
In a rare Monday morning finish, Day
took all of 13 minutes to navigate the par-5,
570-yard 18th on the South Course to finish
a six-hole playoff against Alex Noren to win
the Farmers Insurance Open.
Day and Noren had to return after grinding
through five playoff holes Sunday before it
got too dark to continue.
Spectators weren’t allowed in the next day
because organizers said they didn’t have
time to arrange for security.
“It was a little strange, but we did have a
few people up in the stands, which was
nice,” Day said. “It’s great to finish the tour-
nament and all, but it would have been nice
to finish yesterday with all the people there.
“I’d play until Wednesday if I needed to get
that win,” Day said. “It’s why we get up
every morning and practice. This win is just
as special as the first one.”
Day also won here in 2015, in a four-man
playoff that took only two holes. That vic-
tory propelled him to a five-win season,
including the PGA Championship, and the
world’s No. 1 ranking.
After contending with a balky back the
last few weeks, he hopes this victory also is
a springboard after a dreadful 2017 season.
Day’s tee shot landed in the right rough
and Noren’s in the first cut to the left.
Noren tried an aggressive second shot, but
his ball landed short of the green and rolled
into Devlin’s Billabong, a pond that pro-
tects the hole.
Day shot over some trees and laid up onto
the fairway before hitting a lob wedge
approach of about 85 yards, with the ball
rolling down several feet to set up the win-

ning putt.
“It was really unfortunate for him to hit it
in the water because I know how good of a
shot he actually hit there because that’s real-
ly tough to go with a 3-wood into a green
like that,” Day said.
“I think it’s almost a blessing that I actu-
ally missed the fairway knowing that I had
to lay up and knowing that I kind of worked
on that number before. I was on the range
hitting that exact same number.”
Noren, a 35-year-old Swede trying for his
first PGA Tour win, bogeyed the hole.
“I had a perfect yardage,” said Noren, who
played at Oklahoma State and has nine vic-
tories on the European Tour. “And the greens
are not super firm in the morning like this so
I thought it was the perfect play in the mid-
dle of the green and have a putt at eagle and a
few yards short, so it’s tough.”
Day and Noren matched each other with
birdie, birdie, par, par and birdie through

five playoff holes in the twilight Sunday on
the blufftop course overlooking the Pacific
Ocean.
Ryan Palmer was eliminated on the first
extra hole with a par.
“Myself, Ryan and Alex all hit some nice
shots coming down the stretch in the play-
offs,” Day said. “Going shot for shot with
Alex was pretty cool over that five-hole
stretch, and unfortunately we just couldn’t
get it. We just didn’t want to give it up.”
Day was on his “third-string” caddie. He
said Luke Reardon, who caddied for him at
the end of last year, and David Lutterus, who
was going to be on the bag, had trouble
securing visas.
His third in line, childhood friend Rika
Batibasaga, “he’s marrying an American and
I knew that he’s in here already,” Day said.
“So I was like, ‘I’ve got to grab someone,
either grab him or grab someone out of the
crowd.”’

Blake Griffin is traded Monday by the Clippers
to the struggling Detroit Pistons.
Griffin to Motown
a blockbuster deal

DETROIT — The Detroit Pistons have
acquired star forward Blake Griffin in a trade
with the Los Angeles Clippers.
The Pistons announced the deal early
Tuesday morning. Detroit is sending for-
ward Tobias Harris, guard Avery Bradley and
center Boban Marjanovic to Los Angeles,
with the Clippers also receiving draft picks.
Detroit also receives forward Brice Johnson
and center Willie Reed.
ESPN first reported the deal.
Griffin is averaging 22.6 points, 7.9
rebounds and 5.4 assists in 33 games this
season, but the Clippers have been plagued
by injuries and are ninth in the Western
Conference standings.
Detroit is struggling as well. The Pistons
have lost eight straight heading into
Tuesday night’s game against Cleveland.

said. “Not because of the

Ramos adjusted and

Keolu Ramos count to two ball, two
strikes, then fouled off
several offerings.
“Our dugout was going crazy, our fans
were going crazy … and I was in the zone
because I kept battling and battling through
the at-bat,” Ramos said.
The wild pitch upped the count to 3-2.
Bortolin, who had been lifted for pinch-
runner Anthony Flores, said the momentum
was palpable in the Bulldogs dugout when
Moss signed with the A’s prior to the 2012
season and went on to hit 76 home runs over
three seasons in Oakland. He was traded to
Cleveland following the 2014 season.
Moss was owed $8.25 million for the
upcoming season, and the Royals sent $3.25
million to Oakland as part of the deal. That
equates to a savings of about $5 million that
the Royals, who have been trying to trim
payroll, could use to sign free agent first
baseman Eric Hosmer to a long-term deal.
Moss hit a disappointing .207 with 22
homers and 50 RBIs for the Royals last sea-
son, and he was one of the names floated as
recently as last week as the starting first
baseman heading into spring.
But the Royals have been trying to woo
Hosmer, a free agent for the first time, and
have reportedly offered him a seven-year,
$140 million contract. That size of deal
would make it difficult for general manager
Dayton Moore to simultaneously succeed in
his desire to trim payroll, which ballooned

Griffin missed 21 games last season and

As a rookie, he was an All-Star, won the
slam dunk contest and was named NBA
Rookie of the Year.
He has averaged 21. 6 points, 9. 3
rebounds and 4.2 assists in his career.
Detroit’s season was looking promising
until a late-December injury to point guard
Reggie Jackson. The Pistons have stumbled

things were going our

all felt like we were

That’s why it’s so disap-
Angelo Bortolin pointing.”
CSM had already
responded to a 1-0 deficit earlier in the
game. Bulldogs starting pitcher Wyatt
Tucker was dialed through five innings of
work, allowing just one unearned run on one
hit while striking out four and walking one.
But CSM evened the score 1-1 in the bottom
of the fifth when Jordan single home Lau.
Bulldogs reliever Jamie Kruger surren-
dered two runs in the seventh and would take
to shred financial obligations elsewhere.
“It’s been a unique offseason, as you know.
Unlike any I’ve been part of,” Moore said of
the rather tepid free agent market. “We
remain interested in obviously bringing
back Eric and we’re hoping for others as
well, but right now I think it’s important we
continue to not get antsy, not get overanx-
ious with the market, and we’ll see what hap-
pens.”
The Royals announced earlier Monday that
they had signed shortstop Alcides Escobar,
another one of their core free agents, to a
$2.5 million, one-year deal with $1.5 mil-
lion in performance bonuses.
“Economically we have to get our payroll
back in check,” Moore said last week. “I was
very candid what we had to do, that it’s sim-
ply not acceptable (to have a large payroll)

acquired Bradley in a trade with Boston last
offseason, but he’s in the final season of his
contract. Harris has been impressive for the
Pistons this season, shooting a career-best
41 percent from 3-point range.
Although neither team announced the deal
Monday, there was plenty of reaction on
social media. Harris had a message on his
accounts thanking Detroit for its support.
Griffin’s Twitter account had its own message

Meanwhile, Moss will have an opportuni-
ty to hit the reset on his career in Oakland.
The 34-year-old first baseman and outfield-
er was coming off a down season with St.
Louis when he signed with the Royals prior
to last season. But he continued to regress

Cleveland Indians dropping Chief Wahoo logo
By Tom Withers
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CLEVELAND — The Cleveland Indians
are dropping the Chief Wahoo logo from
their uniforms next year after decades of
protests and complaints that the grinning,
red-faced caricature used in one version or
another since 1947 is racist.
The move, announced Monday, came after
protracted discussions between team owner
Paul Dolan and baseball Commissioner
Rob Manfred.
The cartoonish image of a big-toothed
American Indian with a scarlet face and a
single feather in his headdress will come
off the team’s sleeves and caps starting
with the 2019 season, when Cleveland will
host the All-Star Game.
“Major League Baseball is committed to
building a culture of diversity and inclusion
throughout the game,” Manfred said in a
statement. He said the logo “is no longer
appropriate for on-field use.”
The decision is unlikely to quell com-
plaints from Native American organiza-
tions and others who see the symbol — and
the team’s very name — as insensitive. The
Indians will continue to wear the Wahoo
logo in 2018, and even after it is gone from
the uniform, the club will sell merchandise
featuring the mascot in the Cleveland area.
“I’m elated,” Philip Yenyo, executive
director of the American Indian Movement
of Ohio, said of the decision to remove
Wahoo from uniforms. “But at the same
time, I think it should be this year. I don’t
SPORTS
understand why they’re drawing this out. It
doesn’t make any sense to me, unless they
want to continue to make what’s basically
blood money.”
He added: “Just make the leap already.”
Yenyo and others have demanded that the
team go further and drop “Indians” as its
name: “If they don’t get rid of the name,
then you’re still going to have fans going
down there wearing headdresses and painted
in redface.”
Amid the intensifying debate, the club
has slowly moved away from the logo in
recent years. The Indians replaced it with a
“C” as their primary logo and removed
signs depicting Chief Wahoo from
Progressive Field, the team’s ballpark.
There was no immediate reaction from

“Chief Wahoo has been so iconic for

National criticism and scrutiny over
Chief Wahoo grew in 2016, when the
Indians made the World Series and Manfred
expressed his desire to have the team drop
the symbol. During the playoffs, a lawsuit
was filed while the club was playing in
Toronto to have the logo and team name
banned from Canadian TV. A judge dis-
missed the case.

Every year, Native American groups have

but to change the team name.

Girls’ basketball
The PAL is shaping up to be an
Menlo-Atherton-South City
showdown in the PAL tournament.
Both are cruising to division
titles — the Bears are undefeated
in South play, while the Warriors
control the North with an unbeat-
en mark. There is still one poten-
tial stumbling block left for M-A,
another meeting with second-
place Carlmont. But the Bears
handed the Scots their only league
loss of the season. South City
has been even more dominant
and, with wins over Half Moon
Bay and Terra Nova, the Cougars’
two closest competitors, it’s
going to take a special game from
a team to knock off the Warriors.
Despite Menlo School having
one of its better teams, the WBAL
Foothill Division standings are
still dominated by Pinewood and
no one in that division has come
close to challenging one of the
best teams in the state.
In the WBAL’s Skyline
Division, the equivalent of the
PAL’s Ocean Division, Notre
Dame-SJ is the team to beat with
a 7-0 league mark. Mercy-
Burlingame is still looking to get
to .500 in league play, currently
sitting at 3-4, while Crystal
Springs is still searching for its
first league win.
Boys’ soccer
Burlingame sits in the driver’s
seat in the PAL Bay, the only
undefeated team in the table. The
Panthers are 6-0-2 (20 points),
but Aragon (3-1-4, 16 points),
and Menlo-Atherton (4-2-2, 14
points) are still within striking
distance.
In the Ocean Division, the title
is Half Moon Bay’s to lose. The
Cougars are a perfect 8-0 (24
points) in league play. Mills (6-
2, 18 points) has an outside shot
at catching HMB, but the Vikings
will need some help.
Serra sits in the middle of the
pack of the WCAL standings at 4-
4 (12 points). St. Ignatius (6-0-2,
20 points) and Mitty (5-0-3, 18
points) are the teams to beat right
now.
The WBAL is turning into a
two-team race between Harker (6-
0-1, 19 points) and Menlo School
(4-1-1, 13 points). The Knights
will need to knock off Harker in
their meeting next week, and then
get some help from others, if
they are to catch the Eagles.
Girls’ soccer
A couple weeks ago, Carlmont
was threatening to run away with
the PAL Bay Division title as they
went seven games without a loss.
Defending champion Menlo-
Atherton, however, has
leapfrogged the Scots in the
standings and hold a two-point
lead. Entering the week, the Bears
are 5-2-1 (16 points), while
Carlmont (4-2-2) sits at 14
points. Burlingame has been the
surprise of the season thus far,
sitting in third place with 12
points (3-2-3).
In the Ocean Division, Sequoia
has started to separate itself from
the rest of the division. The
Cherokees sit at 7-1-1, good for
22 points. Hillsdale and South
City check in next with identical
5-3 marks, which is 15 points.

point lead over Menlo, but have a

game in hand. The Tigers sit at 4-

Menlo School, which struggled in
preseason play, is 3-1-1 and has
10 points. Woodside Priory (3-2,
9 points) and Sacred Heart Prep
(2-2-1, 7 points) will need to
make up a lot of ground if they are
the challenge for the league title.
In the WBAL Skyline Division,
Mercy-Burlingame (6-0, 18
points) has been running
roughshod over the competition,
having outscored its division
opponents 37-0. And yet, the

Push to better track living kidney donors’ health

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — The big
unknown when someone donates a
kidney: The long-term health con-
sequences. Now the U.S. is taking
a step toward finally tracking how
living donors fare over decades —
just as candidates are getting some
new cautions to consider.
Specialists insist the surgery
seldom brings serious complica-
tions for the donor. What happens
later in life is less certain.
British researchers reported
Monday that living kidney donors
are more likely to develop later
kidney failure than non-donors —
and female donors may experience
a pregnancy complication, prob-
lematic high blood pressure
Overall, the chances of trouble
still are pretty low, according to
the analysis of international
donor studies published in Annals
of Internal Medicine. But there
hasn’t been enough research to
advise donor candidates — espe-
cially younger ones — about
who’s really most at risk and if
there are protective steps they
could take.
“For those of us who counsel
potential donors, there is reason
for pessimism that we will soon
be able to estimate individual risk
with any precision,” Drs. Peter
Reese of the University of
Pennsylvania and Emilio Poggio
of the Cleveland Clinic wrote in
an accompanying editorial.
Until there’s better information,
it might be safer to accept dona-
tions from middle-aged donors
than younger ones, the duo pro-
posed. For example, the best stud-
British researchers reported Monday that living kidney donors are more likely to develop later kidney failure than
non-donors — and female donors may experience a pregnancy complication, problematic high blood pressure.
ies of how the remaining kidney
functions have tracked donors for
eight to 15 years, which “should
not be particularly reassuring
when advising a 25-year-old
donor,” they wrote.
Meanwhile, the United Network
for Organ Sharing, which over-
sees the U.S. transplant system,
has added the cautions in
Monday’s report to the risk infor-
mation given to would-be donors.
And 10 transplant centers are
about to pilot-test a new Living
Donor Collective — an attempt to
track donors’ health for the
remainder of their lives, instead of
the mere two years of monitoring
now required. The goal is to even-
tually expand to all U.S. trans-
plant programs.
“The more we understand risk,
and disclose it transparently, the
more we’re ensuring public trust,”
said Dr. Krista Lentine of Saint
Louis University, one of the pilot
sites, who also directs UNOS’ liv-
ing donor committee.
More than 95,000 people are on
the national waiting list for a kid-
ney. Of 19,848 transplants per-
formed last year, 5, 811 were
thanks to living donors, accord-
ing to UNOS. Living donations
shorten the yearslong wait, and
those transplants tend to last
longer.
Surgery always brings risks, but
donor deaths from the operation
are rare — three deaths for every
10,000 donors, according to the
most-cited estimate. About 8 per-
cent of donors experience surgical
complications such as bleeding or
blood clots, according to another
study.
What about later? University of
Cambridge researchers examined
dozens of international studies
that tracked donors for varying
lengths of time. Two concerns
emerged:
•  One study found for every
10,000 people tracked over 15
years, 31 living donors experi-
enced kidney failure compared to
four non-donors.
•  Among post-donation preg-
nancies, high blood pressure
known as preeclampsia occurred
in 11 percent of donors in one
study, about twice the rate of non-
donors.
Lentine said such information
can help would-be donors under-
stand the need to avoid later dam-
age to their remaining kidney —
like developing high blood pres-
sure or obesity. She points to a
new online tool doctors can use to
predict if a candidate’s possible
risk is OK for donation.
Far more follow-up still is need-
ed, said Vicky Young, a psycholo-
gy professor in Arizona who suf-
fered painful nerve damage and
chronic kidney disease after
donating nearly 14 years ago. She
doesn’t regret donating, but as a
former UNOS board member she
pushed for better risk disclosure —
nerve injuries now are on the list.
And Young, 64, still wonders
about her kidney, “Will I deterio-
rate as I age?”

“There’s two things that are driving this,”
said TA Program Director Joe Hurley. “Any
opportunity to improve mobility that’s an
important thing, and any opportunity to
enhance safety is also an important thing.”
The project may also align with fast-mov-
ing plans to create managed lanes across a
San Mateo County stretch of the congested
Highway 101. Essentially, one of the
longer-term proposals is to construct new
overpasses that would give carpoolers and
toll payers on State Route 92 direct access
to the managed lanes in the center of
Highway 101.
Shorter-term ideas include widening cer-
tain intersection ramps, reconfiguring
lanes and eliminating the problematic
weave between commuters heading toward
the San Mateo-Hayward Bridge.  The entire State Route 92 corridor has

environmental, design or construction
phases that cumulatively could cost more
than $150 million.
San Mateo and Foster City have approved
allocating $35,000 each for the Project
Initiation Document phase, and the TA
Board of Directors will soon review requests
for $2.63 million in Measure A funds, the
countywide half-cent sales tax dedicated to
local transportation.
Brad Underwood, San Mateo Public Works
director, said the cities have a vested inter-
est in promoting improvements to the
intersection that has grown increasingly
congested in recent years.
“It’s very important just because of what
we’re dealing with. The freeway traffic is so
congested, the local communities are get-
ting affected on their local streets and
roads,” Underwood said. “It’s one of the
major bottlenecks.”
Growing congestion

East Bay, experiences nearly 250,000 trips
during an average weekday, according to the
TA. Bay Area legislators agreed to allocate
$50 million toward the intersection if vot-
ers approve bridge toll hikes with Regional
Measure 3.
Still, locals will have to identify other
funding opportunities as estimates for cre-
ating new overpasses are nearly $93 mil-
lion — which doesn’t include a variety of
other short-term projects.
Short-term improvements
Suggested short-term improvements
could happen in the next three to five years.
Alternatives include increasing capacity by
adding a carpool lane on the ramp from
westbound State Route 92 to southbound
Highway 101. Another option is to modify
the Hillsdale Boulevard exit from north-
bound Highway 101 to increase capacity
and avoid spillover onto the freeway,
according to documents submitted to the TA.
One proposal that includes short- and
long-term improvements is to add another
lane on eastbound State Route 92 between
Highway 101 to Mariners Island Boulevard.
distance between drivers from both direc-
tions on Highway 101 trying to merge with
others headed toward the bridge.
The other long-term suggestion is to cre-
ate a quicker route for carpoolers by creating
new “connectors” or overpasses, from west-
bound State Route 92 to both directions on
Highway 101.
That improvement would feed into the
Highway 101 Managed Lanes Project,
which suggests squeezing in a new lane in
each direction on the freeway. Located in the
center, the express lanes would be free for
others willing to pay a toll. That $593 mil-
lion project is in the environmental review
phase with construction aiming to begin
May 2019, according to Caltrans.
92/ECR project
The state transit agency is currently wrap-
ping up construction on another inter-
change project at State Route 92 and El
Camino Real. Located in San Mateo, the
city helped sponsor the $16 million
improvement that was touted for having
safety as well as congestion-relief benefits.
Hurley noted the Highway 101 and State
Route 92 interchange could also improve
safety and alleviate traffic.
While still in the early stages, it appears
some right-of-way acquisition will be need-
ed at certain areas of the intersection,
including in the northeast and the southwest
quadrants surrounding the intersection,
according to documents submitted to the TA.
However, the goal is to reduce the need for
additional right-of-way as well as impacts
to the environment, Hurley said.
The short- and long-term projects are
being studied separately, as the goal is to
implement improvements as soon as possi-
ble. The project initiation document phase
for short-term improvements is expected to
take about a year, while longer-term
options may take up to 20 months. Both
would go through environmental and further
design stages before any construction is
initiated, according to documents submitted
to the TA.
“If you lump them together, it only goes
as fast as the slowest project,” Hurley said.
“It’s a highly congested interchange right
now, and there are safety issues. So the
quicker we can remedy those problems, the
better.”

Do e-cigarettes help or harm? Report not clear
By Matthew Perrone
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Electronic cigarettes
could be a boon to public health or a major
liability, depending on whether they help
Americans quit smoking or encourage more
young people to try traditional cigarettes, a
new report concludes.
The report issued Tuesday wrestles with
the potential benefits and harms of the
vapor-emitting devices which have been
sold in the U.S. for more than a decade. But
those effects may not be known for decades,
in part, because of how slowly illnesses
caused by smoking emerge.
“In some circumstances, such as their use
by non-smoking adolescents and young
adults, their adverse effects clearly warrant
concern, ” said David Eaton, of the
University of Washington, who headed the
National Academies of Sciences,
Engineering and Medicine committee that
studied the issue. “In other cases, such as
when adult smokers use them to quit smok-
ing, they offer an opportunity to reduce
smoking-related illness.”
E-cigarettes have been sold in the U.S.
since 2007. Most devices heat a liquid nico-
tine solution into vapor and have been pro-
moted to smokers as a less dangerous alter-
native since they don’t have all the chemi-
cals, tar or smoke of regular cigarettes. E-
cigarettes and similar vaping devices have

The FDA has signaled its intention to

research their products.
After reviewing more than 800 studies,
the panel reached a series of conclusions
largely in line with prior assessments by
other researchers. For instance, the panel
found “conclusive evidence” that most e-
cigarettes contain numerous chemicals that
can be toxic. However, there is equally
strong evidence that e-cigarettes are far less
dangerous than traditional cigarettes.
The experts found “substantial” evidence
that young people who use e-cigarettes are
more likely to try cigarettes. On the other
hand, experts found only “limited evidence”
that cigarettes are effective tools to help
adult smokers quit.
Some other key takeaways and questions
from the report:
• Chemicals in e-cigarette vapor, such as
formaldehyde, are capable of damaging
DNA in humans. However, it’s unclear if the
chemicals exist at levels high enough to
cause cancer.
• Switching completely from traditional
cigarettes to e-cigarettes significantly
reduces exposure to numerous cancer-caus-
ing chemicals.
• E-cigarettes can sometimes explode
causing burns and injuries. The risk of such
accidents is higher with devices that are
stored improperly or contain low-quality
batteries.
• There is substantial evidence that e-cig-
arette vapor contains traces of metal, possi-
bly due to the metallic coils used to heat liq-
uid that the devices vaporize.
later date to be determined.
A friend of the family setup a GoFundMe
page to help cover medical bills, life
expenses and funeral costs. According to
the page, medical expenses alone are near-
ing a few million dollars. As of now, 100
people have donated a total of $12,199 to
the campaign, which has a goal of $50,000.
“After Jason’s death, my primary focus is
to bring awareness to what happened,” said
Molina. “I want people to advocate for their
health.”

the proposed action.) The independent
administration authority will be granted

thority.

tion, you should appear at the hearing

ing. Your appearance may be in person

from the date of mailing or personal de-
livery to you of a notice under sectioin

France sees worst rains in 50 years, floods peak in Paris
By Nicolas Garriga
and Jeffery Schaeffer
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
PARIS — Floodwaters reached a peak in
Paris on Monday and were threatening
towns downstream along the rain-engorged
Seine River as it winds through Normandy
toward the English Channel.
Rivers swollen by France’s heaviest rains
in 50 years have engulfed romantic quays in
Paris, swallowed up gardens and roads, halt-
ed riverboat cruises — and raised concerns
about climate change.
The national weather service Meteo
France said Monday that January has seen
nearly double normal rainfall nationwide,
and that the rains in the past two months are
the highest measured for the period in 50
years.
“I’m amazed. I’ve come to Paris since
REUTERS 1965, most years, and I’ve never seen the

almost non-stop rain caused flooding in the country, in Paris. from Boston. “I love Paris with all my heart
THE DAILY JOURNAL
but I’m very worried about the level of the
river.”
Flood monitoring agency Vigicrues said
the water levels in Paris hit a maximum
height of 5.84 meters (19 feet, 2 inches) on
the Austerlitz scale early Monday.
That’s below initial fears last week, and
well below record levels of 8.62 meters in
1910, but still several meters above normal
levels of about 1.5 meters on the Austerlitz
scale.
And the waters are expected to stay unusu-
ally high for days or weeks.
That’s bad news for tourists hoping to
cruise past Paris sites on the famed “bateaux
mouches” riverboats, or visit the bottom
floor of the Louvre Museum, closed since
last week as a precaution. Riverside train
stations along the line that serves
Versailles are also closed, and will remain
that way for several more days.
Water laps the underside of historic
bridges, and treetops and lampposts poke
out of the brown, swirling Seine.
