Home burglaries alarm South City residents


Police believe they have info which could lead to arrest of serial criminals
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Hundreds of South San Francisco


residents concerned about their
safety flooded a town hall meeting
hosted by police for advice on
ways to protect themselves from a
rash of violent home robberies.
Police Chief Jeff Azzopardi told

the large crowd assembled


Thursday, Nov. 19, in the
Municipal Services Building, 33
Arroyo Drive, law enforcement
officials believe they have identified the suspects responsible for a
series of residential burglaries
plaguing communities on the west
side of the city over the last
month.

Though few details were publicly available, Azzopardi said


eyewitness accounts suggest
police are searching for a crew of
dark-skinned males, believed to
be roughly 20 years old, who have
broken into homes and stolen
valuables from more than a dozen
residents since late October.
Azzopardi pledged the commit-

ment of the police force to finding


the criminals responsible for
threatening the quality of life in
South San Francisco.
We are going to find out who
did this and we are going to stop
them from doing this, he said.
The string of burglaries began
last month, according to police
reports, when criminals began

breaking into homes in the Buri


Buri neighborhood, which is bordered by Westborough, Junipero
Serra and Hickey boulevards, as
well as El Camino Real.
Trends indicate the burglars
have been breaking into homes
through the back door, typically
busting sliding glass doors to

homework at a tutoring program held in St. James AME Zion church.

Adding to the community


Math tutoring program helps underprivileged students
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

When middle school students


from the North Central neighborhood in San Mateo began falling
behind their peers in math, rather
than stand aside and watch, a motivated group of community members jumped to action.
The result of those efforts is an
after-school math tutoring program held three times at week at
the St. James AME Zion church in
San Mateo, where nearly 50 students receive lessons supplementing the math courses they take at
school, said the Rev. Marlyn
Bussey, who founded the program.

Bussey said the tutoring service


was born from a need identified in
a study from the Silicon Valley
Community Foundation which
found a disproportionate amount
of black students from local underprivileged communities entered
high school without an adequate
proficiency in mathematics.
As someone apt to take action to
address needs in her community,
Bussey said she formed a foundation through the church in 2013
which aimed to improve the math
skills of students who needed additional lessons.
Our ultimate goal is to work
with students so they are ready to
successfully take algebra or geom-

etry in the ninth-grade, she said.


The tutoring program offers
about three hours of tutoring each
week, plus a dinner, to students
ranging between fifth- and eighthgrade for no charge.
Teachers from high schools
throughout San Mateo County lead
the sessions, which are based on a
specialized curriculum designed to
address the new style of math
learning
introduced
under
Common Core standards, said
Bussey.
The tutoring is already beginning to pay dividends, said
Bussey, as three of the four pro-

PORTLAND, Ore. Oregon and


Washington
have
joined
California in delaying the start of
their commercial crab seasons
after dangerous toxin levels were
found in the crabs.
Officials say elevated levels of
domoic acid were found in crabs in
all three states. The toxin is naturally produced by microscopic
algae in the Pacific Ocean, but the
massive bloom of algae caused by
warming ocean conditions this
year has led to more toxins produced and consumed by shellfish.
California had already delayed

the Nov. 15 start of its season after


finding dangerous levels of the
toxin.
Oregon on Friday delayed the
Dec. 1 start along its entire coast,
after testing in recent weeks
showed higher toxin levels in the
southern half of the state. Oregon
Department of Fish and Wildlife
officials said delay of the season
will allow completion of additional testing to make sure toxin levels are safe.
And in Washington, officials on
Friday also said theyre delaying
the season along parts of the coast

Council deems home historic


Owners of Redwood City home built in 1916 to get tax break
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT

A home built in 1916 in Redwood City


was deemed historic by the City Council
which will give the owners up to a 60 percent break on their annual property tax bill.
The home at 2302 Hopkins Ave. just
south of Whipple Avenue was honored with
the distinction based on its builder and distinctive architectural features.
The home embodies classic elements of
the Craftsman bungalow style and was built
by the George H. Irving Company, the
developer of the Redwood Highlands subdivision, one of the citys earliest and most
prominent subdivisions, Associate Planner
Seth Adams wrote in a report to council.
The council voted 5-0 at its Nov. 16 meeting to designate the home a historic landmark with councilwomen Rosanne Foust
and Diane Howard absent.
The four-bedroom home was last sold in
2013 for $1. 25 million, according to
Redfin.
The historic designation allows the owners to enter into a 10-year Mills Act contract, which requires that property tax savings go toward long-term maintenance of a
property.
To date, the city has granted 24 Mills Act
contracts, according to Adams report.
Preserving our history is really great,
Councilwoman Barbara Pierce said, according to a video of the meeting.
Pierce suggested that the designation
might also open the home up for tours.
The initial Mills contract includes a 10year schedule of proposed maintenance and
improvements.
Deteriorated rafters on the front porch
will be required to be fixed in 2017, for
instance.
City staff is unaware of how many other
homes in the city that might be designated

Trump rivals decry his call T


for registering U.S. Muslims
By Julie Pace and Jill Colvin
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Republican presidential


rivals rushed Friday to condemn Donald
Trumps support for a government database
to track Muslims in the United States, drawing a sharp distinction with the Republican
front-runner on a proposal also deemed
unconstitutional by legal experts.
Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush called the
prospect of a registry abhorrent. Florida
Sen. Marco Rubio said the idea was unnecessary and not something Americans would
support. And Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, who has
largely avoided criticizing Trump throughout the 2016 campaign, said, Im not a fan
of government registries of American citizens.
The First Amendment protects religious
liberty, and Ive spent the past several
decades defending the religious liberty of
every American, Cruz told reporters in
Sioux City, Iowa.
The rebukes came after Trump voiced support for a mandatory database for Muslims
in the U.S. while campaigning Thursday in
Iowa. The real estate mogul was asked by an
NBC News reporter about the prospect of a
database and whether Muslims would be
required to be registered. In a video posted
by the network, Trump said, They have to
be.
Asked whether Muslims would have to
register at mosques, Trump said: Different
places. You sign up at different places. But
its all about management.
In an interview on Fox News Channel
Friday evening, Trump tried to clarify his
position, saying, I want a watch list for the
Syrian refugees that Obamas going to let in

Donald Trump speaks during a campaign rally in Spartanburg, S.C.


if we dont stop him as Republicans.
He said hed had trouble hearing the NBC
reporters questions. But he didnt disavow
the idea of a general registry for Muslims
living in the country or say decisively he
wouldnt support it.
I want to have watch lists. I want to have
surveillance. I mean, were not a bunch of
babies, he said.
Trump has also voiced support for closing
certain mosques as a way to contain the terror threat in the U.S.
His comments followed the attacks in
Paris that killed 130 people and wounded

hundreds more. The Islamic State group has


claimed responsibility, elevating fears in
the U. S. and prompting calls for new
restrictions on refugees fleeing war-torn
Syria.
The House passed legislation this week
essentially barring Syrian and Iraqi
refugees from the United States. Senate
Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky.,
has slotted the bill for possible Senate consideration, though its unclear whether the
chamber could get enough votes to override
a threatened veto by President Barack
Obama.

Carson: Safe zones in Syria better than refuge in U.S.


By Kathleen Ronayne
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CONCORD, N. H. Republican Ben


Carson said Friday that creating safe zones
in Syria and establishing a coalition government in the war-torn nation are better
ways to deal with Syrian refugees than resettling them in the United States.
I think it actually makes a lot more sense
and we can provide them with humanitarian
support, Carson said after filing his paperwork to run in the New Hampshire presidential primary.
Carsons comments came a day after he
compared the process for vetting Syrian
refugees to handling a rabid dog.
The retired neurosurgeon is facing
enhanced scrutiny of his foreign policy credentials in the wake of a terrorist attack in
Paris that killed 130 people. The Islamic
State, which controls large swaths of Syria
and Iraq, is claiming credit for the attacks.
Carson said Friday the United States
should work on negotiating a cease-fire in
Syria, now in the fourth year of a civil war,
and create a coalition government that
includes President Bashar Assad.

Youre not going to


get one faction or another in control without a
great deal of strife, but
you might be able to
form a coalition government, at which time you
may be able to repopulate the area (and) repatriate the citizens there,
Ben Carson
Carson said.
Carson said it would be pretty hard to
root out Assad and his government, and said
the United States involvement in Libya
proved that supporting groups working
against the establishment isnt always
the best choice.
In making his comments, Carson pushed
back against criticism that he doesnt have
a strong understanding of foreign policy.
Actually listen to my policies, actually
listen to my solutions, you will find that
they compare favorably with anybody. But
dont listen to the narratives that try to say,
Oh, he doesnt know anything, Carson
said.
Carson joined other GOP candidates in
criticizing recent remarks from Donald

Trump, who voiced support for creating a


database to track Muslims in the United
States. Carson said it would set a pretty
dangerous precedent to single someone out
because of their religion. He did say the
government should keep a database of foreigners who come into the country.
Trump has also proposed monitoring
mosques in the United States. Carson said
he is in favor of different treatment for
any mosques that are radicalizing people, but said he would treat any other
institutions supporting terrorism in the
same way.

Unemployment rates fall


in two-thirds of U.S. states
By Christopher S. Rugaber
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Unemployment
rates fell in 32 U.S. states last month as
employers nationwide added the most
jobs of any month this year.
Jobless rates rose in just three states
in October and were unchanged in 15.
The unemployment rate has tumbled
below 4.5 percent in 21 states, including Texas, Colorado, and Virginia.
Thats a historically low level that may
help push up pay in the coming months.
A hiring rebound in October added
271,000 jobs, the most this year. The
national unemployment rate fell to 5

percent from 5.1 percent. Steady spending by consumers has offset slower
growth overseas and encouraged businesses to add more workers.
Employers stepped up hiring in 40
states last month, the most since April.
The biggest job gains occurred in
California, which added 41,200, followed by Florida, with 35,200.
North Dakotas unemployment rate of
2.8 percent was the lowest in the
nation, followed by Nebraskas 2.9 percent.
Very low jobless rates are becoming
more common: The unemployment rate
is 4.4 percent in Ohio, down from 5.2
percent a year ago; 4.4 percent in
Indiana, down from 5.8 percent 12

months earlier; and 3.8 percent in


Colorado, down from 4.4 percent a year
ago.
When unemployment falls to such
low levels, companies are typically
forced to compete among a dwindling
supply of those without jobs in order to
hire. Or they have to make better offers
to those who already have jobs to entice
them to switch. In either case, average
wage levels would rise.
The Federal Reserve cited many such
examples of wage pressures across the
country last month, according to its
Beige Book report. The Beige Book
consists of anecdotal reports of business conditions in the Feds 12 districts.

Two men pleaded no contest to felony assault with a


deadly weapon charges Thursday for the beating of a security guard at a Redwood City strip club in July, prosecutors
said Friday.
The men appeared in front of Judge Leland Davis and
were sentenced to two years of court probation, ordered to
attend 32 hours of anger management and to stay away
from the strip club.
Kevin Gaeden, 30, of Vallejo, and William Pittman, 25,
of American Canyon, were involved in a confrontation at
the Hanky Panky Strip Club on 2651 El Camino Real on
July 31, prosecutors said.
Gaeden and Pittman were drinking heavily and were
thrown out of the club that night. The men then attacked
the clubs security guard outside the building, according to
prosecutors.
Prosecutors said Pittman held the guard down while they
punched and kicked him in the head. Other security guards
eventually broke up the fight by spraying the men with
mace.
The victim suffered cuts and bruising to the head, prosecutors said, but did not require hospitalization.
Their case was continued to Jan. 15, 2016, for receipt of
the restitution report.

Passenger removed from


flight carrying New Jersey governor
A United Airlines flight carrying New Jersey Gov. Chris
Christie was about to take off from San Francisco
International Airport Friday morning but returned to the
gate to remove a passenger, according to SFO spokesman
Doug Yakel.
United Airlines flight 1108, which was headed to
Boston, was taxiing on the SFO runway when a passenger
began taking pictures of flight attendants, which apparently made other passengers uncomfortable, Yakel said.
The flight was scheduled to leave SFO at 8:32 a.m.,
according to the United Airlines website.
A statement released by Gov. Christies campaign
spokeswoman Maria Comella, posted on the governors
Twitter page, said the governor was aboard the flight with
an aide and a member of his security team.
At no point did Governor Christie interact with this
passenger nor did this passenger pose a verbal or physical
threat to the governor, the statement read.
As of about 1:30 p.m., the flight was reboarding for
departure, according to Yakel.

Man caught with drugs while


wearing girls underwear gets one year
A man with one of the longest criminal records the San
Mateo County District Attorneys Office has ever encountered was sentenced to one year in county jail Friday.
Bobby William Wilcox, a 53-year-old Redwood City
resident also known as Bobby Chung, was charged with
smuggling nine bags of drugs in a pair of mens underwear
and girls underwear, according to prosecutors.
Wilcox has the option to enter into a program at
Delancey Street instead of serving the one-year term. He
was also sentenced to five years probation.
Wilcox, who has 53 prior convictions, was stopped by
a sheriffs deputy who recognized him in San Bruno Jan.
17.
The deputy took Wilcox to jail and, as part of the normal
booking process, was searched. Wilcox was allegedly
wearing two pairs of underwear, a mans pair that contained two baggies of methamphetamine and a pair of little girls underwear that had seven baggies of methamphetamine.
Wilcoxs 33-year criminal history includes 29 felonies
and he has been to state prison eight times one of the
longest records District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe said
hes ever encountered.
After the judge sentenced him, Wilcox asked whether the
convictions would prevent him from running for public
office, according to prosecutors.

Two arrested for attempted burglary


Two men were arrested Thursday night after being spotted in the TJ Maxx parking lot in San Carlos suspiciously
looking into unoccupied parked cars, according to the San
Mateo County Sheriffs Office.
At about 8 p.m., deputies responded to the store at 1251
Industrial Road and saw two suspects and a car matching
the descriptions provided by witnesses driving through
the Ross Dress for Less parking lot. As deputies
approached, one of the men allegedly dropped a window
punch and deputies found a laptop and cellphone that both
denied owning, according to the Sheriffs Office.
Arrested were Orlando Harris Jr., 22, of Vallejo, and
Jamisi Calloway, 18, of San Francisco, according to the
Sheriffs Office.

Task force recommending


smaller drones registered
By Joan Lowy
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON An aviation
industry task force is recommending that operators be required to
register drones weighing as little
as a half a pound, a threshold that
could include some remote-controlled toys, industry officials
said.
Federal Aviation Administration
officials who convened the 25member task force on drone registration have said they want to
avoid requiring the registration of
toys. But the consensus of the task
force is that the weight threshold
that triggers registration should
be set at 250 grams or above,
which is about a half-pound, said
people familiar with its deliberations.
The threshold is based on the
potential impact a drone that size
would have if it fell from the sky
and struck a person or if it collided
with a helicopter or plane, they
said.
The recommendations were
expected to be submitted to the
FAA by Saturday. The FAA then can

modify them, and hopes to issue


the rules before Christmas to
begin registering some of the
thousands of drones expected to be
purchased over the holidays. One
industry official said the target
date is Dec. 21.
Four people familiar with the
advisory groups deliberations
described the conclusions to the
Associated Press, speaking on
condition of anonymity because
the FAA asked that the discussions
be kept private.
The registration requirement
would apply to drone operators
rather than individual drones to
avoid requiring operators who own
multiple drones to register more
than once. The operator would
receive a single registration number, which would then be affixed to
the body of each drone.
People who already own drones
weighing more than a half-pound
would have to register them.
Registration could be done
through an FAA website where an
operator can provide name,
address, phone number and other
contact information and receive a
registration number.

Dems push to prevent gun


sales to those on terror list
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON People on the


U.S. governments terrorist watch
list often cant board commercial
airliners, but they can walk into a
gun store and legally buy pistols
and powerful military-style rifles.
Sensing a political opening
from last weeks Paris attacks,
Democrats are renewing calls for
Congress to pass legislation
aimed at preventing terrorists
from buying guns. Similar bills
including a post-9/11 measure
backed by the Justice Department
under Republican President George
W. Bush have been stymied for
years, thanks in large part to
opposition from gun-rights

groups
and
congressional
Republicans.
According to a March analysis
by
the
Government
Accountability Office, people on
the FBIs consolidated Terrorist
Watchlist successfully passed the
background check required to purchase firearms more than 90 percent of the time, with more than
2,043 approvals between 2004
and 2014. The office is an investigative branch of Congress.
The FBI is notified when a background check for the purchase of
firearms or explosives generates a
match with the watch list, and
agents often use that information
to step up surveillance on terror
suspects.

Airstrikes hurt, dont halt,


IS oil smuggling operations
By Zeina Karam
and Susannah George
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BEIRUT The United States


and Russia are going after the
Islamic State groups oil industry,
destroying refineries and hundreds
of tanker trucks transporting oil
from eastern Syria in a heavy bombardment in recent days aiming to
break the extremists biggest
source of income.
The campaign already appears to
be having some effect, with oil
prices rising in areas of Syria that
rely on crude smuggled out of IS
areas. But experts say it will be
difficult to cut off the militants
trade completely since they are
likely to switch to smaller, more
elusive vehicles.
Putting a total end to the industry would mean destroying the oil
fields in Syria, but that would also
bring hardship to millions in the
population under IS rule and others
who depend on the groups oil,
causing fuel shortages as winter
sets in. Otherwise, taking the
fields would require ground forces.
Still, the campaign could hit

hard on an industry that U.S. officials say generates more than half
the revenue the Islamic State
group uses to maintain its rule
over its swath of territory across
Syria and Iraq and pay its fighters.
IS controls almost all of Syrias
oil fields, concentrated in the east
of the country, producing some
30,000 barrels a day, along with
one field in Iraq. It smuggles most
abroad, mainly to Turkey, selling
at cut-rate prices and generating
nearly $50 million a month.
In the wake of the bloody
attacks in Paris last week and
the downing of a Russian passenger jet in Egypts Sinai widely
blamed on IS American and
Russian warplanes unleashed a
stepped-up wave of strikes on oil
infrastructure.
Russias bombing blitz this
week by warplanes and cruise missiles from navy ships destroyed
15 oil refining and storage facilities in Syria and 525 trucks carrying oil, Defense Minister Sergei
Shoigu said Friday. Aerial footage
released by the military showed
airstrikes hitting a column of oil
tankers in the Syrian desert, and

sections of a large oil refinery


bursting into flames.
On Sunday, U.S. defense officials said warplanes destroyed 116
oil-hauling trucks in eastern
Syria, the biggest strikes on the
oil trade since the U.S.-led air campaign began more than a year and a
half ago. Attack planes and gunships pounded the trucks as they
clustered near an oil facility in Abu
Kamal, a town close to the Iraqi
border. On Nov. 9, a French
airstrike hit an oil supply center in
the eastern Syrian province of
Deir el-Zour.
The U.S.-led coalition has targeted oil infrastructure occasionally in the past, including a heavy
attack last month on Syrias Omar
field near the town of Deir el-Zour
that hit refineries, command and
control centers and transportation
nodes.
Degrading this source of revenue will reduce ISILs ability to
fund their military and terrorist
operations, said Col. Steven
Warren, the spokesman for the
U. S. -led coalition in Baghdad,
using another acronym for the
group.

Hotel attack in Malis


capital kills at least 20
By Baba Ahmed
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BAMAKO, Mali Heavily armed


Islamic extremists seized dozens of
hostages Friday at a Radisson hotel, but
Malian troops, backed by U.S. and French
special forces, swarmed in to retake the
building and free many of the terrified captives. At least 20 people, including one
American, were killed along with two gunmen during the more than seven-hour
siege, a Malian military commander said.
An extremist group led by former alQaida commander Moktar Belmoktar
claimed responsibility for the attack in the
former French colony, and many in France
saw it as a new assault on their countrys
interests a week after the Paris attacks.
While French President Francois
Hollande did not link the violence at the
Radisson Blu hotel with last weeks bloodshed in Paris, he declared that France would
stand by the West African country.
Once again, terrorists want to make
their barbaric presence felt everywhere,
where they can kill, where they can massacre. So we should once again show our
solidarity with our ally, Mali, he said.
Gunfire continued throughout the day at
the hotel, which is popular with airline
crews and other foreigners doing business
in the capital of Bamako, but the shooting
had stopped after dark.
Officials would not confirm that the

entire complex had been secured by nightfall, although the only activity was firefighters carrying bodies to waiting ambulances.
Malian state television said late Friday
night that the government had announced a
10-day state of emergency beginning at
midnight as well as a three-day period of
national mourning beginning Monday.
Army Cmdr. Modibo Nama Traore said
late Friday that 20 people had been killed,
including an official with Malis gendarmerie. In addition, he said five people
were injured including two police officers.
The U. S. State Department said one
American was among the dead, though it did
not identify the victim out of respect for
the family.
Though Traore had earlier said as many as
10 attackers were involved, he said Friday
night that there may have been only two
gunmen, both of whom were killed. A
police officer at the hotel displayed photos
of the two dead gunmen, their bodies riddled
with bullets.
The siege began when assailants shouting God is great! in Arabic burst into the
complex and opened fire on the hotel
guards, Traore said earlier on Friday. An
employee who identified himself as Tamba
Diarra said by phone amid the attack that
the militants used grenades.
About 170 guests and employees were
initially taken hostage, but some apparently escaped or hid in the sprawling, cream-

and-pink hotel that has 190 rooms and a

included visitors from France, Belgium,

Coast and Turkey.
It was more like a real terrorist attack,
said U. N. Mission spokesman Olivier
Salgado. The intention was clearly to kill,
not to necessarily have people being
hostage.
Traore said 126 people had been escorted
to safety, and that at least one guest reported the attackers instructed him to recite
verses from the Quran as proof of his
Muslim faith before he was allowed to
leave.

One week after attacks, Paris honors the dead


By Karl Ritter and Lorene Cook
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

PARIS A week after the deadliest attacks on France in


decades, shell-shocked Parisians honored the 130 victims
with candles and songs Friday, knowing that at least one
suspect is still at large and fearing that other militants could
be slipping through Europes porous borders.
Having established how the attacks against a soccer stadium, sidewalk cafes and a rock concert were carried out,
investigators were still piecing together details on the
assailants and how they converged in the French capital.
Prosecutors said Friday that they had determined through
fingerprint checks that two of the seven attackers who died
in the bloodshed had entered Europe through Greece on Oct.
3.
Previously they had said only one attacker had been registered in Greece, an entry point for many of the hundreds of
thousands of migrants seeking asylum in Europe. That man
carried a Syrian passport naming him as Ahmad AlMohammad, though its unclear whether it was authentic.
The five other attackers who died had links to France and
Belgium. One of the seven dead has not been identified,
while a manhunt is underway for one suspect who escaped,
Salah Abdeslam, 26. French police stopped Abdeslam the
morning after Fridays attacks at the Belgian border but
then let him go.
Belgium early Saturday raised the terrorism threat alert for
the Brussels area to its highest level, indicating a serious
and immediate threat.
French police official Jean-Marc Falcone, speaking on
France-Info radio, said he was unable to say if Abdeslam,
whose brother, Brahim, blew himself up in the attacks,
could be back on French territory.
The suspected ringleader, Abdelhamid Abaaoud, was killed
in a pre-dawn raid Wednesday on an apartment in the Paris
suburb of Saint-Denis, along with Hasna Aitboulahcen, a
26-year-old woman who said she was his cousin.
Prosecutors said Friday that a third person was killed in the
raid but did not release the identity.
They also said Aitboulahcen had not blown herself up
with a suicide vest, as initially believed, which suggests
the body parts collected after the raid belonged to the third,
unidentified, person.
Meanwhile in Brussels, European interior and justice
ministers vowed to tighten border controls to make it easier to track the movements of jihadis with European passports traveling to and from warzones in Syria.
We must move swiftly and with force, French Interior
Minister Bernard Cazeneuve said. Europe owes it to all victims of terrorism and those who are close to them.
Cazeneuve said the 28-nation bloc must move forward on
a long-delayed system for collecting and exchanging airline passenger information, data he said is vital for tracing
the return of foreign fighters from Syria and Iraq.

WASHINGTON Convicted spy Jonathan Pollard was


released from prison Friday, culminating an extraordinary
espionage case that complicated
American-Israeli relations for 30 years
and became a periodic bargaining chip
between two allies.
Within hours of his release, Pollards
attorneys began a court challenge to
terms of his parole that they called
onerous and oppressive, including
requiring him to wear an electronic GPS
ankle bracelet and the monitoring of any
Jonathan
computer that Pollard may use either perPollard
sonally or at a job.
Pollard was driven away from the federal prison at Butner,
North Carolina, before dawn in heavy fog.
Hours later, he checked in with probation officers at a federal courthouse in New York City, then emerged into a
throng of journalists. He wore loose-fitting khakis, a blue
yarmulke and a slight smile.
I cant comment on anything today, he said, with his
wife, Esther Pollard, on his arm.
One of Pollards lawyers and a U.S. marshal, grasping
Pollard firmly by the arm, escorted him through the crowd
of jostling photographers to a waiting car.
Pollards release came nearly 30 years to the day after his
arrest for providing large amounts of classified U.S. government information to Israel.
The people of Israel welcome the release of Jonathan
Pollard, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said
in a statement. As someone who raised Jonathans case for
years with successive American presidents, I had long
hoped this day would come.

NEW YORK The stock market


closed out its best week of the year
Friday as big gains by retailers and
technology companies pushed major
indexes upward.
Stocks faded as Friday wore on, but
they still finished higher. The S&P
500 index climbed almost 3.3 percent
this week. By just a hair, that was its
biggest weekly gain in 2015.
Stocks climbed Monday and
Wednesday as the U.S. market didnt
seem to be affected by a string of
unsettling international events,
including last Fridays terrorist attack
in Paris. Instead, investors responded
to signs the U.S. economy remains
strong.
The Dow Jones industrial average
rose 91.06 points, or 0.5 percent, to
17, 823. 81. The Standard & Poors
500 index added 7.93 points, or 0.4
percent, to 2, 089. 17. The Nasdaq
composite index gained 31.28 points,
or 0.6 percent, to 5,104.92. The Dow
turned positive for the year by a fraction of a point.
Throughout the week we got more
and more news that the Federal
Reserve was assessing the economy
favorably, said Erik Davidson, chief
investment officer at Wells Fargo
Private Bank.
Davidson said investors have slowly gotten used to the idea that the

Federal Reserve is going to raise


interest rates. That prospect worried
them greatly a few months ago, but
now, stocks are rising because
investors are taking heart that the Fed
believes the economy is on solid footing. Meanwhile, new economic stimulus in Europe could strengthen the
global economy.
Retailers rallied after solid earnings
reports from discount chain Ross
Stores and footwear seller Foot
Locker. Retail stocks got pummeled
this month after weak reports from
Macys and Nordstrom caused
investors to worry that the holiday
shopping season would be a bust. But
some retailers are doing well.
Ken Perkins, president of the
research firm Retail Metrics, said
shoppers are looking for discounts
and turning to lower-priced retailers
like TJ Maxx and Ross Stores and to
fast fashion retailers who keep up
with the latest trends.
All that doesnt bode well for mallbased retailers, Perkins said.
Ross Stores gained $4.64, or 10
percent, to $50.84 while Foot Locker
rose $3.49, or 5.7 percent, to $65.02.
Gap advanced $1.89, or 7.5 percent,
to $26.98 and Urban Outfitters rose 71
cents, or 3.2 percent, to $23.
Athletic apparel and footwear maker
Nike said it will raise its dividend, buy
back $12 billion of its own shares and
split its stock. Nike, which has nearly
tripled over the last five years, rose

$6.87, or 5.5 percent, to $132.65.


Alphabet, the parent company of
Google, led a rally in tech stocks and
made its biggest gain in almost a
month. The company said Wednesday
that former VMWare CEO Diane Green
will run Googles commercial technology business. That suggests Google
wants to strengthen its enterprise
business, which is a big profit center
for Amazon and Microsoft but an area

Tesla recalling all Model S sedans for seat belt issue


By Dee-Ann Durbin
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

DETROIT Tesla Motors is recalling its


entire fleet of Model S sedans to check their
front seat belts after one passengers seat
belt became disconnected.
The recall the companys largest ever
involves 90,000 cars worldwide. Tesla
sent an email Friday to affected customers.

Teslas other vehicles, the Model X SUV


and the Roadster, arent affected. Seat belts
in the back seat of the Model S also arent
affected.
About two weeks ago, Tesla said, a customer in Europe reported that her seat belt
disconnected when she turned to talk to rear
passengers. The woman was not injured and
her car has been repaired.
Palo Alto, California-based Tesla
believes the seat belt anchors werent prop-

erly bolted together in that case. The company has inspected 3,000 other Model S
sedans and hasnt found a problem, but it
wants to inspect all seat belts to make sure.
Tesla owners are being asked to schedule a
visit to a Tesla service center for an inspection. Around 83 percent of Tesla owners are
within a 25-minute drive of the companys
125 service centers worldwide, the company said. Tesla may send mobile teams to
customers who are far from a service center.

E. coli outbreak linked to Chipotle expands to six states


By Candice Choi
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK An outbreak of E. coli


linked to Chipotle that originated in the
Pacific Northwest has spread south and
east and has now infected people in six
states.
New cases have been reported in
California, New York and Ohio, the
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention said Friday. The first cases

were discovered late last month in


Oregon and Washington, and more
recently in Minnesota.
Investigators have yet to determine
the specific ingredient linked to the illness.
So far, 45 people have been infected,
with 43 of them saying they ate at
Chipotle in the week before they
became sick. The CDC said it is aware of
illnesses starting on dates ranging from
Oct. 19 to Nov. 8. The agency said that

illnesses that took place after Oct. 31


may not have been reported yet.
Chipotle Mexican Grill Inc. closed 43
restaurants in Oregon and Washington
in late October after health officials discovered most of the people sickened in
the outbreak had eaten at its restaurants.
The restaurants have since reopened.
At the moment, we do not believe
that it is necessary to close any restaurants, Chipotle spokesman Chris
Arnold said in an email.

Tesla has recalled the Model S several


times before. Most recently, in January
2014, it updated some cars software to prevent connector adapters from overheating
while the car is charging. But this is Teslas
largest recall to date.
Tesla stressed that the recall was voluntary and not requested by federal regulators.
The company said it has informed government agencies in the U.S., Europe, China
and elsewhere.

Starwood warns of data
breach at 54 of its hotels
NEW YORK Starwood says hackers were able to see
debit and credit card information of some people that dined
or shopped at 54 of its hotels, including some Sheraton,
Westin and W locations.
The Stamford, Connecticut-based hotelier says malware
was found in payment systems at hotel restaurants, gift
shops and other retail areas, but not at the front desk where
guests pay for their stay.
The hotels include a St. Regis in Bal Harbour, Florida, and
Sheraton, Westin and W locations in several cities, including Los Angeles and New York. The malware, which has
since been removed, infected payment systems since as
early as November 2014.
Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide Inc. says the malware exposed names on the cards as well as card numbers,
security codes and expiration dates.

First-round game a mental test for Hillsdale


By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Hillsdale football coach Mike Parodi is


tired of answering questions about his
teams first-round playoff opponent,
Westmont.
Not the team itself. Rather, Parodi is tied
of people wondering if a Saturday afternoon, 1 p.m. kickoff will have any effect on
the Knights. After all, Hillsdale, the top
seed in the Division 4 bracket, has played
only one afternoon game all season.
Parodi brushes such talk aside.

The only thing concerning me is how


many people ask me if it concerns me,
Parodi said. We practice in the day time all
the time and in the summer. I dont expect it
to be any sort of issue.
Besides, Westmont will be experiencing
the same thing. The Warriors have played
only one day game as well.
I grew up on football at 1 p.m. on
Saturdays with my dad in the [junior college] scene, Parodi said. Mike Parodi Sr.
was a longtime football assistant coach at
City College of San Francisco.
More important than the start time to

Parodi is Westmont (6-4) itself. Coached by


former Menlo College head man Mark
Kaanapa, the Warriors finished third in the
Blossom Valley Athletic Leagues Santa
Teresa Division which is the equivalent
of the Peninsula Athletic Leagues Ocean
Division, of which Hillsdale is the undefeated champion.
Silver Creek, which finished second
behind Lincoln, is the No. 4 seed in the
Division 4 bracket. Lincoln opts out of
CCS every year and finishes its season in
the annual Bone Game against San Jose on
Thanksgiving Day.

The passing attack averages less than a

Burlingame almost pulled off a miracle


comeback.
Almost.
But the No. 4-seeded Panthers who had
given up 30 or more points just once all season saw their season end with a 30-28
loss to No. 5 Riordan in the Central Coast
Section Open Division III playoff opener
Friday at Umland Stadium.
Burlingame trailed 24-14 at the half, but
managed to find a tempo and keep pace with
an explosive Riordan offense in the second
half. The Panthers twice closed it to a onepossession game, but never led in the half.
If we could have snuck this out, I feel like
there would have been no stopping us,
Burlingame head coach John Philpopoulos
said.
The Panthers scored the games final
touchdown with 9:04 remaining in regulation on a 15-yard touchdown run by Laipeli
Palu. Then the Burlingame defense made a
three-and-out stop to give quarterback
Cameron Kelaita and Co. the ball back less
than two minutes later. Despite their final
possession lasting nearly four minutes, the
Panthers only netted 5 yards on the drive.
They ultimately punted on fourth-and-18,
never to regain possession again.
The bread-and-butter Burlingame run game
had its hands full with the West Catholic
Athletic League powerhouse defense of
Riordan. Palu fought for 59 yards on 17 carries, while senior Joevani Garcia rushed for
a team-high 60 yards on seven carries.
Theyve got a pretty stout seven or eight
up front, so we werent expecting to come
out and march, Philipopoulos said. But as
the game went on, we were able to make
some things happen.
Burlingame established its passing game
early though, making for an exciting opening drive that saw the Panthers jump out to a
7-0 lead. Kelaita completed a pair of thirddown passes to senior wide receiver Cooper
Gindraux; first for a 50-yard strike to move

TERRY BERNAL/DAILY JOURAL

Turns out the loss by the College of San


Mateo to City College of San Francisco a
week ago was not a make-or-break situation
for the Bulldogs playoff chances.
Not even three losses was enough to keep
the Bulldogs out of the four-team Northern
California playoffs, with a chance to play
for the state title.
The second-seeded Bulldogs (7-3) will
host No. 3 Chabot (8-2) at noon Saturday,
with the winner going on to the Nor Cal title
game next week. San Francisco, the No. 1
seed, takes on No. 4 Butte in the other semifinal game.
The Nor Cal playoffs and by extension,
the state title game is what CSM set out
to do at the start of the season, and CSM
coach Bret Pollack doesnt care how the
Bulldogs got there.
CSM head coach Bret Pollack used a Men
in Black movie reference to explain how
his team feels.
If I went, bzzzz with the mind-eraser
thing and said, Were in the first round of
the playoffs, at home? Id be excited,
Pollack said.
Despite playing coy leading up to the
game against San Francisco, Pollack knew
his team was in the playoffs all along.
I knew (we were in), Pollack said. No
one on the team knew. None of the coaches.
If San Francisco is considered CSMs
main, in-conference rival, Chabot in
Hayward would be the Bulldogs No. 1 outof-conference nemesis.
We played (them every year) for forever
until this last (conference alignment)
cycle, Pollack said. Weve played them
before that for as long as I can remember.
The Battle of the Bridge, baby!
The Gladiators went 5-0 in winning the
Valley Conference title. They averaged 46.5
points per game this season. They have
been on fire the last six weeks, averaging
55.5 points per game which included a
streak of four games in a row scoring 50
points or more, including 60 against

Warriors top Bulls to extend win streak to 14


By Janie McCauley
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

OAKLAND Until a couple of games ago,


Stephen Curry really hadnt thought much
about making more NBA history.
Now, Curry and the Golden State Warriors
are right on the cusp of adding another
accomplishment in an incredible year.
Curry scored 27 points and the defending
champions moved within one victory of
matching the best start in NBA history, hold-

ing off the Chicago Bulls


106-94 on Friday night
to improve to 14-0.
The leagues last undefeated team ran its franchise-record home winning streak to 26 games
by beating a Chicago
team that is the last to
Steph Curry win at Oracle Arena during the regular season,
way back in late January. Golden State did so

with its third tough game in four nights, too.


Its a goal thats right here and now and
its something that we want to experience,
Curry said. Itd be a huge accomplishment
because doing something that hasnt been
done in the history of the league is special.
You never know if this opportunity will
come back again. There are so many variables that go into winning this many in a
row, especially the start of the season.
Golden State equaled the 1957-58 Celtics as
the only defending champions to win their ini-

tial 14 games. The Warriors are one of five teams


in NBA history to begin 14-0, and will travel to
Denver looking to keep it going Sunday.
Harrison Barnes added 20 points and nine
rebounds for the Warriors in a game featuring
18 lead changes and 17 ties.
Jimmy Butler had 28 points, nine rebounds
and seven assists for the Bulls in the second
game of a four-game road trip.
We understand how hard you have to play
in order to win in this league, and everybody
has bought into that, Butler said.

Struggling Seahawks look to mend vs. 49ers


By Tim Booth
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SEATTLE When faced with adversity the


past two seasons, the Seahawks were able to
find solutions.
The big question is whether they can do it
again this season, and it starts on Sunday
when the Seahawks (4-5) host the 49ers (3-6).
This week has created all kinds of concern.
Have the Seahawks become soft and complacent since winning a title and negotiating
huge salaries? Are they playing with the same
effort that got them to consecutive Super
Bowls? Or, have the Seahawks simply made
too many mistakes against good teams?
Four of their five losses are to the Packers,
Bengals, Panthers and Cardinals, who have a
combined 30-6 record. Seattle has made glaring mistakes in all four games. Cutting down
on errors would be a big help.
Thats what I have hope in, that weve been
able to come out of the trenches, out of the
gutter so to speak, and fight our way out,
Seattle wide receiver Doug Baldwin said. Its
a little deeper, its a little later in the season.
Were under .500 right now so it feels a little
deeper but its nothing we cant do.
While Seattle attempts to begin a winning
streak, the 49ers are hoping to build on an
unexpected win two weeks ago over Atlanta.
Blaine Gabberts first start in place of Colin
Kaepernick was a success and the 49ers
defense looked like the dominant unit it was
in previous years.
Keeping it going in Seattle wont be easy.
The 49ers have lost five of their last six visits.

Unleash the beast


The overwhelming feeling around the
Seahawks was last weeks offensive game
plan never got started because of penalty
problems and falling behind 19-0. That limited Marshawn Lynch to eight carries. Expect
Seattle to make Lynch a priority. His only
100-yard game of the season came against the
49ers when Seattle ran the ball nine times
with Lynch on its opening touchdown drive.

NaVorro Bowman returns to Seattle Sunday for the first time since the 2013 NFC championship
Game when he suffered a horrific knee injury.

Bowmans back
Sunday will be NaVorro Bowmans first
game back in the stadium where he suffered a
career-threatening knee injury in the 2013
NFC championship game.
Its a vivid memory that Bowman has been
thinking about for a couple of weeks because
the trajectory of his career changed when he
was hurt in the fourth quarter of that championship game. He missed the 2014 season and
said hes still not 100 percent. Nonetheless,
Bowman leads the NFC in tackles with 88.
It will be very humbling for me just to
approach it again and be able to just play on
that field again and have a good game,
Bowman said.

Third-down trouble
Seattle was 1 of 8 on third downs against
Arizona largely because the Seahawks were in
third-and-long most of the game. Six of
Seattles eight third-down attempts were 10 or
more yards. The struggles on third down also
led to the Seahawks defense being on the field

for nearly 39 minutes.


For the season, Seattle is 21st in the league
converting just under 36 percent of third
downs. But they are converting 48.6 percent
on third-and-8 or shorter.

Road woes
The 49ers are 0-4 on the road including
being outscored 74-13 in division losses at
Arizona and St. Louis.
San Francisco hopes to change its fortunes
off the bye week even if the task is daunting in one of the leagues most raucous venues
at CenturyLink Field against a team that has
ruled this rivalry of late.
There were discussions during the extended
break on how to approach road games. The
49ers came close in a 30-27 loss at the New
York Giants on Oct. 11.
We started talking about when we leave,
you talk about all the different things, coach
Jim Tomsula said. I dont put it on crowd
noise, I dont put it on those things, but just
coming out rolling, just go. And thats our
focus this week. Just, lets go.

C Rodney Hudson
questionable for
Raiders on Sunday
By Michael Wagaman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ALAMEDA The Oakland Raiders may


be without starting center Rodney Hudson
when they try to snap a two-game losing
streak Sunday in Detroit.
Hudson, who sat out last weeks loss to the
Vikings with an ankle injury, returned to practice this week and seemed
to be making progress but
coach Jack Del Rio didnt
sound so optimistic when
asked about Hudsons
availability.
Its questionable, Del
Rio said Friday. He practiced on a limited basis.
see how it goes.
Rodney Hudson Well
Tony Bergstrom will
start for Oakland if Hudson is unavailable.
Bergstrom made his first career start at center against the Vikings and drew praise
from both Hudson and offensive coordinator Bill Musgrave.
He did a terrific job, Musgrave said.
He called a good game. Im very pleased
with Tonys level of play.
Still, Hudson is the anchor of the Raiders
offensive line after signing a $44.5 million, five-year contract in March. At the
time, it made Hudson the highest-paid center in the NFL. Miamis Mike Pouncey has
since surpassed him.
A second-round pick by Kansas City in
2011, Hudsons arrival has been paying off
for Oakland. A year after finishing with the
NFLs least-efficient offense, the Raiders rank
eighth overall and ninth in scoring heading
into Sundays game against the Lions.
Getting him back in the lineup is key,
too, after Oakland was held to 14 points in
the loss to Minnesota its fewest in more
than a month.

ALLEN PARK, Mich. Charles Woodson


has quite a fan club in Michigan.
In addition to the people who still fondly
remember the Heisman Trophy winner helping the Wolverines win a national championship in 1997, the Oakland Raiders safety
has admirers among the Detroit Lions.
Im excited to be on the same field as him,
Detroit safety Glover Quin said. Excited to
shake his hand and tell him how much I appreciate his career.
Hopefully, I can get
his jersey.
Quin said Woodson is
arguably the best defensive back in NFL history
because his all-around
talents are more impressive than what former
greats such as Deion
Charles
Sanders or Ed Reed were
Woodson
able to do. Quin marveled
at how well Woodson has made the transition from cornerback to nickel back to safety while continuing to make plays in coverage, against the run and as a threat to blitz.
He has done it all, Quin said.
Some thought Woodson might be done in
the NFL when Green Bay cut him in 2013,
and he had to wait three-plus months to get
a job. Oakland, which happened to draft
Woodson No. 4 overall in 1998, signed him
as a free agent and has extended his career
with a pair of one-year contracts.
The things that you hear about not being
able to do this or not being what you were
10, 11 years ago, which nobody is who they
were 10 or 11 years ago, Woodson said.
So you hear all those things and you draw a
little bit from it.
The 39-year-old Woodson is in fact doing
what he didnt do a decade ago, and hes
playing against professionals young
enough to be his children.
Hes older than my mom, Lions cornerback Darius Slay said.
Woodson has five interceptions, tied for
the most in the NFL. He finished his rookie
season with five interceptions and didnt
surpass that total until 2008 in his first year
with the Packers. In 18 seasons, Woodson
has 65 interceptions to tie Ken Riley for
fifth all-time.
Like the wine he sells, Woodson seems to
getting better in some ways with age.
Its all in the grapes, he said. I keep
telling everybody.
Detroit (2-7) tries to win a second straight
game Sunday at home against Oakland (45), trying to avoid a season-high, threegame losing streak.

Replacing Aldon
The Raiders might have a harder time getting to Stafford because of the yearlong suspension imposed linebacker Aldon Smith,
who was second on the team with 3 1/2 sacks.

Good company
Carr became the sixth quarterback to throw
at least 20 passes in each of his first two seasons. He joined Dan Marino, Peyton
Manning, Andrew Luck, Russell Wilson and
Andy Dalton in the select club. Carr has
thrown for at least 300 yards and two TDs the
past three games and can be the first Raider
quarterback ever to do that in four straight.

Put me in, coach


Lions rookie RB Ameer Abdullah returned
a kick 104 yards last week against the
Packers, and is averaging an NFL-high 31.9
yards on kickoff returns. He ran for a 24yard touchdown and had a 36-yard catch in
his debut, but the Lions are struggling to get
him the ball on offense. Abdullah has 14
carries over last three games after careerhigh 14 attempts in a win over Chicago.

ALBANY, N.Y. Documents filed at the court examining the


legality of daily fantasy sports in New York show a rapidly growing national business built on billions in entry fees.
An estimate by DraftKings says the industry will take in up to
$4 billion in entry fees in the United States this year, and could
reach up to $20 billion in 2017.
Daily fantasy companies like FanDuel and DraftKings generally charge roughly 10 percent of each wager for hosting games.
The insights into the industry are contained within court
exhibits as the companies fight New York Attorney General Eric

Schneiderman, who is attempting to halt what he considers illegal gambling under state law. A hearing is scheduled Wednesday
in Manhattan before a state judge.
New York is just one of several states where the daily fantasy
sports industry is facing recent scrutiny. Several states that dont
have specific prohibitions are considering new regulations or
laws.
The companies caught the New York attorney generals attention with their ad blitzes this year around the start of the NFL season.
The growth in (daily fantasy sports) advertising has been as
spectacular as it was sudden, the attorney general wrote in his
motion for an injunction. Advertising reached a peak in the
weeks leading up to the 2015 NFL season, when it became nearly impossible to watch televised sports without encountering a
(daily fantasy sports) commercial.

Burlingames Alex Waldsmith hauls in a 25-yard reception in double


coverage in Fridays 30-28 loss to Riordan.
give Riordan a comfortable 24-14
lead at the half.
We had no clue that was coming, Burlingame defensive lineman Andrew Friedberg said. Since
it caught us off guard, it was like a
slap in the face. It woke us up and
were aware of it after that.
After each team turned the ball
over once in the third quarter,
Burlingame caught a big break on
a botched punt play by Riordan.
Punting from inside its own 20,
the punt snap was low, causing
Riordans punter to touch a knee to
the ground after gathering it, causing the play to be whistled down at
the Riordan 6-yard line, and the
ball turned over on downs.
Burlingame cashed in on the following play, with Palu dancing
into the end zone on a 6-yard
sweep to close the lead to 24-21.
It took Riordan three plays to reup, with Greene rushing for gains
of 46, 3 and 2 to improve the lead
to 30-21.
But Burlingame battled its way
back downfield to score on an 11play, 55-yard drive including
two fourth-down conversions
to score its final touchdown on the
last positive carry of Palus
Burlingame career, closing the
score to 30-28.
I think were a second-half
team, Friedberg said. We went in
(at halftime) and talked about what
we could do better.
But after each team punted, giving the Crusaders the ball at their
own 14 with 3:29 remaining, they

were able to run out the clock.


After Riordan moved to the
Burlingame 40, the Panthers came
up with three clutch stops to force
fourth-and-4. But with 1:21
remaining, and Burlingame out of
timeouts, Greene put the game
away with a 9-yard run for a first
down.
That last fourth-and-6, [our
offensive line] showed theyre big
boys, Riordan head coach Kevin
Fordon said. And when we need 5
or 6 yards, were going to go to
them.
With the win, Riordan advances
to the Open Division III semifinals next Friday at Rabobank
Standium to face top-seed Palma.
Palma downed Aragon Friday

into the red zone, then on a 16yard touchdown pass.
Gindraux who totaled seven
catches for 131 yards and two
touchdowns made a slick move
to get to the TD pass, which was
underthrown into 1-on-1 coverage
in the front corner of the end zone.
But Gindraux read it immediately,
stopped on a dime to pivot around
the Riordan cornerback, and came
up with the grab.
At his position, hes as good as
anyone who has come out of here
in
the
last
15
years,
Philipopoulos said.
But Riordan countered with the
dynamic ground attack, paced by
senior tailback Jason Greenes
game-high 147 yards and three
touchdowns on 15 carries. After the
Crusaders advanced the ball into
Burlingame territory, Greene broke
runs of 15, 16 and 2 yards, the final
one a TD run; he then pounded in a
two-point conversion run to give
Riordan an 8-7 lead.
Riordan got the ball back on a
three-and-out and upped its lead.
Quarterback Jacky Luavasa opened
the drive with a 26-yard pass to
Cedric McAfee. Then Greene steadied the ground attack with runs of 7,
13, 2 and 3 yards, capped by a scoring run. Riordan again opted for
the two-point conversion, with
Luavasa scoring on the keeper to
give the Crusaders a 16-7 lead.
Burlingame stayed got within
striking distance with a meaty
eight-play, 80-yard drive, highlighted by another third-down
conversion when, on third-and15, Kelaita hit Gindraux for a 19yard completion. After Palu rambled off tackle for a 17-yard gain,
Kelaita hit Gindraux on a timing
pattern up the left side for a TD,
closing Riordans lead to 16-14.
But then the explosive Riordan
offense turned to its deep repertoire of plays. Burlingame tried to
catch Riordan napping with an
onside kick, but the Crusaders
recovered at their own 49. Then on
the first play of the following
drive, Luavasa ran a flea-flicker to
perfection with a 51-yard touchdown pass to McAfee; Luavasa, of
course, capped the score with a
two-point conversion keeper to

As add LHP Hill on $6M deal


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Pennington joined the Angels earlier in the


week.

OAKLAND In a matter of months, Rich


Hills remarkable path to rejoining a rotation
took him from Washingtons farm system to
independent ball on Long Island and then
back to Boston to start down the September
stretch.
Hill moved to the right side of the rubber
and adjusted his arm angle along the way
and he just landed himself a nice new contract
because of those significant tweaks, which
might mean little to someone outside the
game.
The left-hander agreed to a $6 million, oneyear contract with the Oakland Athletics on
Friday, giving the low-budget franchise a versatile, experienced pitcher who can handle a
variety of roles.
Yet theyre counting on him as a starter. Hill
chose the As because he gets to start again.
It was really a personal journey for myself
getting back to what I always wanted to do,
being a starting pitcher, said Hill, who will
be reunited with his former Boston pitching
coach Curt Young.
Hill took his physical in the Bay Area and
the team announced the deal Friday before he
was expected to fly back out to Boston in the
afternoon. Hill became the second free agent
to switch teams after infielder Cliff

The 35-year-old lefty began the 2015 season with Washingtons Triple-A club in
Syracuse before going 2-1 with a 1.55 ERA in
four starts and 29 innings with the Boston
Red Sox as a September callup. He had 36
strikeouts to five walks.

As deal Jesse Chavez for Hendriks


The As have acquired Liam Hendriks from
the Blue Jays for fellow pitcher Jesse Chavez.
Hendriks became a full-time reliever for the
first time with Toronto last season and went 50 with a 2.92 ERA in 58 appearances. His fastball velocity spiked when he moved to the
bullpen, and the 26-year-old right-hander
struck out a career-best 9.9 batters per nine
innings. Hendriks is under team control
through at least 2020.
Chavez has spent the past two seasons as a
swingman with the As and went 7-15 with a
4.18 ERA in 30 games this year, including 26
starts. The 32-year-old righty made nine
appearances with Toronto in 2012 and had an
8.44 ERA before being acquired by Oakland
for cash. Chavez is eligible for arbitration
this winter and can become a free agent after
the 2016 season.

THE DAILY JOURNAL

KNIGHTS
Continued from page 11
only 968 yards, they have scored nine touchdowns through the air, led by junior receiver
Sam Suh, who has caught six of them.
Parodi said Westmont employs an offensive
style that a lot of teams run nowadays: one running back and tight end, with three-receiver
sets.
Everybody has their own little (offensive)
flavor. Its another variation of the stuff weve
seen, Parodi said. I think one the things is,
coach Kaanapa does a great job with his kids.
Based on what weve seen on film, they always
seem to be in the right place at the right time.
We have to make sure were on point against
them.
Hillsdale (9-1) counters with an offense averaging 38 points per game, while allowing only
18. The Knights have been held under 27 points
or less only two times this season and are 11 in those games. Defensively, Hillsdale has
allowed 20 points or less six times.
At this point of the season, Parodi is more
concerned about having his team sharp.
Its about getting a lot of good, solid reps (in
practice). Making sure they understand the
scheme and the game plan, Parodi said.
[Friday] is going to be a big mental day.
Parodi said he has not shied away from the
pressure and expectations that come with being

the No. 1 seed and he has discussed it with his


team.
Sure (there is pressure with the No. 1 seed).
The way we look at it, we earned the right by
(being successful in) our previous 10 games.
Now, we have to defend and prove it was the
right seeding, Parodi said. As the No. 1 seed,
there are expectations and hopefully its not
more than they have faced all year.
Parodi believes the Knights have been in
playoff mode since the beginning of Ocean
Division play, a division that provided a ton of
tests over the last five weeks. Second-place Half
Moon Bay, third place Kings Academy and
fourth-place Menlo School all qualified for the
playoffs as well.
Our last few games of the year were pretty
playoff like, Parodi said. We had to play Half
Moon Bay, there, for a piece of the championship. We had to play Menlo to seal the championship and then (play) our rival. Those games
did a good job of preparing us for the playoffs.
We got (the last) three weeks to prepare us for
the next three weeks, hopefully.
If there is one thing that concerns Parodi
about Saturdays kickoff is the fact that there is a
Friday night without football for his players.
Im more worried about their free Friday
night, Parodi said. We gave them some
options and ideas (of what to do). Its not a good
idea to hang out at the buddys house until 2 in
the morning.

Cal looks to end five-game skid against No. 15 Stanford


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

STANFORD In five years at California,


safety Stefan McClure has never laid his hands
on the coveted Axe that goes to the winner of
the annual Big Game.
Stanford has had a firm grasp on that trophy
and the upper hand in the rivalry, winning five
straight games against the Golden Bears by an
average of more than 25 points a contest.
McClure has one last chance to hold the Axe
before leaving Cal when the Bears (6-4, 3-4
Pac-12) travel across the bay to face No. 15
Stanford (8-2, 7-1, No. 11 CFP) in the 118th
Big Game on Saturday night.
I havent even seen it in person face to
face, McClure said. Ive only seen it in pictures or on TV. It would be a great feeling to
just be able to touch the Axe.
That the Bears even have a legitimate
chance to do it is progress. They have barely
been competitive with Stanford in recent
years, highlighted by a 63-13 loss in 2013
that capped a 1-11 season.
But behind talented quarterback Jared Goff
and an improved defense in coach Sonny
Dykes third year, the Bears are bowl eligible

for the first time since


2011 and are seeking their
first Big Game win since
2009.
It would mean a lot,
Dykes said. Were trying
to keep taking steps forward. You kind of mark
this stuff off as you go
Kevin Hogan along. This is one of
those steps. Beating your
rival is always important to getting where you
want to go as a program.
This game is plenty important to Stanford
as well, especially after losing last week to
Oregon. The Cardinal can clinch the Pac-12
North title with a win and keep their slim
playoff hopes alive.
While those hopes to get into the playoff
were dealt a severe blow last week, coach
David Shaw is confident his players arent
dwelling on their lost opportunity.
No one is walking around here with their
heads down, Shaw said. Its not like theres
a great effort to get guys back on the same
page. We have a lot of older guys who want to
beat Cal and keep the Axe and a bunch of guys

who want to go to the Pac12 championship game.


Thats where our focus is.

Big Game QBs


While Cal uses the wideopen Bear Raid offense and
Stanford prefers to load up
with extra offensive lineJared Goff
men and tight ends, the
teams do have one thing
in common offensively. They both get stellar
quarterback play. Goff is second in the league
in yards passing with 3,324 and TD passes
with 30. Kevin Hogan is less prolific but perhaps more efficient with a 162.1 rating and
the ability to beat teams with the run.
This game has the two best quarterbacks in
a conference with a lot of good quarterbacks,
Shaw said. If I had one guy to start in a game
we needed to win, Id pick one of these guys.

Run to daylight
While much of the focus on Cals offense is
on Goff and the receivers, the running game
cant be overlooked. The Bears ran for 307
yards last week, led by Tre Watson (110) and

Vic Enwere (89). When the running game gets


going, it makes it harder to take away the deep
passes and also allows Cal to play more uptempo to put pressure on the defense.
When we run the ball were a pretty good
football team and a pretty good offense particularly, Dykes said. When we dont, were
not as good. Thats the way it always is for
us.

Switching sides
Stanford defensive lineman Brennan
Scarlett will face his former teammates after
spending his first four years at Cal. Scarlett
never played in the Big Game for the Bears
because of injuries but now will get the chance
in his one season with the Cardinal.
Some of those guys are my good friends,
Scarlett said. It will be intense Im sure.

Key injury
Stanford will have to deal with Cals potent
receivers without perhaps its best cornerback
with Ronnie Harris sidelined by an ankle
injury. Harris leads the team with 10 passes
defensed, creating a big void for Alameen
Murphy to fill.

Show of
support
By Cindy Zhang

found out about the Paris


attacks Friday afternoon,
shortly after school had
ended. Tired from a long day that
started at 6 a.m., I was half asleep
when I walked into the room
where my schools Model United
Nations club regularly meets.
There was a Model U.N. conference at Stanford that weekend, and
we were planning on driving
down straight
from school.
But after
changing into
the requisite
formal attire, I
was jolted
awake by
breaking news
from a fellow club member: Paris
was under attack by terrorists
over 26 had already been killed
and nearly 100 were being held
hostage. In disbelief, I pulled out
my own phone and typed in one
word: Paris. I watched as the
colorful Google logo disappeared,
and as the page refreshed, headline after headline covered my
entire screen, assuring me that
there was no mistake at hand; this
was no false alarm.
On the car ride to Stanford, we
kept the news on, toggling
between stations, listening to
horrors not quite a world away.
When the reporters began to
repeat themselves on the radio, I
found myself glued to the feed of
live updates from The New York
Times, refreshing the website
every few minutes to check the
hostage situation, and as morbid
as it was, to check the steadily
rising death toll.
Everything everywhere seemed
to be about Paris. During dinner,
the TV blared updates on the City
of Light, and as police stormed
the Bataclan only to find 80 dead
bodies, I found that I had lost my
appetite. Even the topic for the
Model U.N. conferences opening
ceremony had changed to focus on
Paris, the Islamic State and the
rise of global terrorism. As I
walked to my committee room, I
passed a group of newscasters taking down a camera set up on the
grass in front of a Stanford building; they had just finished interviewing a professor about the terrorist attacks in Paris.
As I logged on to Facebook late
Friday night, I was greeted with
dozens of notifications. Scrolling
through my feed, I saw that countless friends had updated their profile pictures with a filter of the
French flag. Underneath each
blue, white and red profile picture,
Facebook politely suggested that
I do the same, to support France

Stellar cast boosts stoner


comedy The Night Before
By Sandy Cohen
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Boosted by its stellar cast and


playful take on A Christmas
Carol, The Night Before is a
coming-of-age stoner-buddy comedy laced with warm holiday
cheer.
Make no mistake: its still a
silly romp thick with dope smoke
and dumb jokes, but the performances are solid, and theres some
surprising sentiment behind the
wacky antics.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Seth
Rogen and Anthony Mackie play

best friends bidding farewell to


their 10-year tradition of partying
together on Christmas Eve. Ethan
(Gordon-Levitt) is determined to
make their last night epic, especially since Chris (Mackie) is on a
hot streak in his football career
and Isaac (Rogen) is expecting a
baby.
Isaacs wife, Betsy (the hilarious and soon-to-be everywhere
Jillian Bell), gives her husband a
special gift in honor of his last
Christmas Eve with his pals: a
box filled with every single drug
in the whole world.
Well, you can imagine how

things go from there. Isaac dips


into the stash as soon as they
leave the house. Rogen is predictably over the top as he samples each substance, falling deeper and deeper into a delusional
haze. This presents ample opportunity for gross-out moments,
like when he barfs in church or
lets his nose bleed into a womans
martini.
Meanwhile, Ethan surprises his
friends with tickets to the hottest
party in town, the one theyve
dreamed of getting into since their
holiday tradition began.
But first, Chris needs to pick up

some weed. (Somehow, Betsy left


that out of the box.)
This sets the trio on their
adventure, bringing them in contact with the mysterious Mr.
Green (a brilliant Michael
Shannon) for the first of several
meetings. He introduces Chris to
the weed of Christmas present.
Later in the film, the weed of
Christmas past and future is
smoked. (Poor Dickens.)
Along the way, the guys meet up
with Ethans ex-girlfriend (Lizzy
Caplan) and her friend (Mindy

LOS ANGELES Theres a new


Jeopardy! champion to add to the quiz

Alex Jacob, a currency trader from

the syndicated TV shows Tournament of

He defeated paralegal Matt Jackson of

Jacobs total winnings
were $399,802, including from six regular-season games. The top five
Jeopardy! prize winners of all time range
from Brad Rutter with
$4. 4 million to Dave
Madden with $430,000,

the show said. Ken Jennings, who has the


most consecutive games won, 74, is No. 2
on the money list with $3.3 million.
Jacob, 31, said his experience as a professional poker player helped guide his
approach, including the heart-stopping big
bets that he placed on the shows daily
double categories that allow contestants to
risk all their potential earnings.
The natural tendency ... is you dont
want your score to go down to zero or end up
in the negative. People think of negative

outcomes and it causes them to play a bit


more conservatively, Jacob said.
But poker games taught him that when
you have a big edge, when the probability
is in your favor, you want to bet as much as
you possibly can, he said.
Another tip from Jacobs card-playing

avoid getting sluggish.
Jacob, who earned a bachelors degree in
economics and mathematics from Yale, says
a solid memory helped him win.

Religious issues underlie timely Disgraced


By Judy Richter

to use her work in an upcoming major show.


Isaac is married to Jory (Zakiya Young), a
black attorney who works in the same law

firm as Amir.
The two couples gather for a dinner party
in Amir and Emilys apartment. Their con-

viviality, fueled by alcohol, especially on


Amirs part, degenerates into increasingly
nasty arguments about the Quran as well as
Muslim and Jewish beliefs and actions.
After Isaac and Jory leave, violence
ensues, and one or more marriages end.
This production is astutely directed by
Kimberly Senior, who has directed the play
elsewhere.
Whites Amir, who so painstakingly had
created one image of himself, reveals inner
sentiments that belie that image as Amir
spirals downward.
Crane as Isaac, Sturgis as Emily and Young
as Jory create multi-dimensional characters.
Dabu as Abe has the smallest role, but his
diction blurs some of his lines.
The play is especially timely in light of
the recent terrorist attacks in Paris. Its sure
to provoke much thought and discussion
about issues like Islamophobia, racial and
religious prejudices, and religious extremism.
It runs just under 90 minutes with no intermission.
Disgraced will continue in Berkeley

significant boathouse.
Gregor lands the contract, but he lures
Rita (and supposedly Dieter, who has
despised him from the start) to be the lead
designers. Its soon obvious that they have
radically different ideas about what should
be done.
In the meantime, Rita has been working
on house plans for a couple, the apparently
upper-class Pam (Nancy Carlin) and her
blue-collar husband, Andy (Rod Gnapp), a
builder. Pam and Andy have lots of money
but not much taste. Still, theyre decent
people.
Besides trying to ensnare Rita, Gregor is

trying to design the Abu Dhabi Palace of


Justice and Interrogation. One of his previous designs was an Alzheimers facility
with a patient-bewildering maze.
As the play continues, Gregor evolves
from just snobbish and underhanded to
downright malevolent, a monster.
Although the play often refers to famous
architects and architectural sites, one doesnt have to be familiar with all of them to
enjoy it.
At its heart, it looks at what constitutes
statement architecture versus what kind of
architecture everyday people enjoy. Some
might call the latter plebeian or even
schlock, but many people feel comfortable

with it and are willing to pay for it.


Art Manke, who directed the world premiere, also directs this production and its
stellar cast.
All six actors bring out the subtleties of
their characters along with their more obvious traits. Special mention goes to
Jolenes acrobatic Tamsin.
The two-act play runs about two hours
with one intermission. Its a heady, entertaining experience.

His deception begins to unravel when, at

However, a New York Times article

With precision and power,


Haynes captures Carol
By Jake Coyle
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Carol, which has already been feted at the Cannes Film Festival and been ranked among the
expected Oscar contenders.

Blanchett and Mara are


exquisite in poetic Carol
By Lindsey Bahr
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Carol is an overwhelmingly beautiful


film. It looks like a dream, it sounds like
whispered want, and it feels like falling in
love in all its stomach turning terror and
ecstasy. Even its title rolls elegantly off the
tongue.
In Carol, director Todd Haynes, his filmmaking team and his formidable leads Cate
Blanchett and Rooney Mara have birthed
that rare, precious creation where the substance, the story and the emotions all stand
on equal footing to the films loveliness
easily making it one of the years best.
The story, adapted from Patricia
Highsmiths 1952 novel The Price of
Salt, is both straightforward and deeply
complex. Its about two lost souls at very
different ages and stations finding each
other by chance and altering the course of
the others life.
Its just a glance longing at first sight
across a crowded Christmastime department store when Therese Belivet (Rooney
Mara), a gawky shop girl in a tattered Santa
hat spots Carol Aird (Cate Blanchett), dripping in tasteful furs and corals and regal
confidence. Carol sees Therese too, and they
hold each others gaze for a wistful moment.
But their mutual, immediate attraction
isnt that simple. Its New York City in the
early 1950s and same sex relationships are,
at the very least, not a widely accepted public affair. Theres more at stake than just the
possible heartbreak of any passionate relationship in this setting.
To complicate matters further, Therese
doesnt yet know herself that well, and
Carol is navigating a divorce from her husband Harge (Kyle Chandler), with whom she
shares a child. Carols desires are known
even to her husband but largely unspoken.
Therese is just discovering hers.
It makes the courtship more subtle than
most, but this isnt a film about flouting
societal norms on some mass scale. Its
about these two people and the profound
heartbreak of not fitting in the time period
that their lives unwittingly occupy.

There is a fascinating contrast in these


two women, separated by 16 years in real
life. Maras Therese is a girl-woman, styled,
in some cases exceedingly overtly, to look
like Audrey Hepburn in the 50s. This character doesnt have Hepburns innate elegance and effervescence, though she is
beautiful, but awkward. When she speaks,
she doesnt project so much as swallow her
clipped words. She is intelligent, but
uncomfortable in and alienated from this
world. That otherness is even more evident
when shes with her sweet and conventional
boyfriend Richard (Jake Lacy).
In striking contrast to Therese, Carol is
the epitome of feminine, well-heeled refinement. Her magnetism and grace inspires
obsessions and devotion from those around
her her husband, her devoted more-thana-friend Abby (Sarah Paulson) even as
she redirects her focus to others.
But its the love story thats at the center.
Carol remarks that its as though Therese
has been flung out of space. It could apply
to both. Alone, they are lost. Together,
theyre ablaze.
Few working directors today are able to
inventively meld high style and high art in
the way that Haynes does, even as he returns
to a familiar period (Far From Heaven) and
actress in Blanchett (Im Not There).
There are some distracting oddities,
including Carrie Brownstein in a very minor
role, despite prominent screen credit and
Carter Burwells score, which sounds distinctly like a Philip Glass composed-original, but those are minor quibbles in an otherwise splendidly realized film.
Period movies often cant escape the era
in which theyre made. The eyebrows, the
makeup, and even the faces all seem to point
to another time. Carol looks like it was
actually made in its day a story that has
been buried from sight until now to transfix,
enchant and remind us of arts transformative capacity, and were all the luckier for it.
Carol, a Weinstein Company release, is
rated R by the Motion Picture Association
of America for a scene of sexuality/nudity
and brief language. Running time: 118
minutes. Four stars out of four.

NEW YORK Subtle and gorgeous, Todd


Haynes period romance Carol swells and
staggers with the tremors of an unexpected
love. The setting (1950s New York) and the
characters (played by Cate Blanchett and
Rooney Mara), may seem remote to some,
but few wont recognize the films dreamy
undulations of emotion including the
director, himself.
It so has put me back into the mind of a
much younger me when I, unfortunately,
filled up many journals worth of meticulous
observation and analysis and recounting of
residual events that would occur in the company of that person, Haynes said in a
recent interview. Whats funny is what a
solitary predicament you find yourself in.
That the 54-year-old, Portland, Oregonbased Haynes was, from the start, a careful
chronicler of passions should come as little surprise. In his six feature films and the
HBO miniseries Mildred Pierce, Haynes
has grown into a master of melodrama with
a knack for lushly textured films that summon earlier eras with precision and power.
Carol, which has already been feted at
the Cannes Film Festival and been ranked
among the expected Oscar contenders, is
adapted from a Patricia Highsmith novel
originally published as The Price of Salt
under a pseudonym in 1952. Mara plays a
young department-store clerk named
Therese whos drawn into a relationship
with Blanchetts Carol, an elegant, experienced woman whose marriage is crumbling.
Their romance unfolds like a crime, hidden from view amid the male-dominated
midtown of 50s New York. Men often clutter the frame in Carol the closed-minded or oblivious impediments of a time that
shunned homosexuality.
There are all kinds of obstructions and

theyre built into so


many frames of the
film, says Haynes. It
makes you think about
looking and whos looking at whom and the frustration of not getting to
what you want.
Such details, mixed
Todd Haynes with elements like
Carter Burwells sumptuous score and the cameras keen attention
to slight but meaningful gestures (a glance,
a hand on a shoulder), show Haynes in full
command of his filmmaking.
He primes the canvas really meticulously. You can feel the textures and the atmospheres building up and accruing during
filming, says Blanchett, who also starred
in his 2007 Bob Dylan drama Im Not
There. He would come in and he would
just smooth a hair. Hes quite painterly
about the way he assembles the whole
thing. It feels like its got Todds hands all
over it.
The Los Angeles-born Haynes, who studied semiotics as an undergrad at Brown
University, has regularly been drawn to
stories with gleaming surfaces that cloak
inner turmoil. His first film, Superstar:
The Karen Carpenter Story, about the
singer, was made with modified Barbie
dolls. His first feature, Poison a series
of tales about homosexuality was
labeled pornography before its release but
became a touchstone of what was called
New Queer Cinema. In Safe he explored
the life of a San Fernando Valley homemaker (Julianne Moore) and in Velvet
Goldmine dove into 1970s glam-rock.
Carol marks his second 50s-set film
after Far From Heaven, the Oscar-nominated, Douglas Sirk-inspired melodrama
about a Connecticut housewife (Moore,
again) whose husband is gay.

A more crafty Lara Croft in latest Tomb Raider


By Derrik J. Lang
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

After successfully rebooting the Tomb


Raider franchise in 2013 by reintroducing
Lara Croft as a shipwreck survivor who washes up on a deadly and really weird island
off the coast of Asia, the developers at
Crystal Dynamics have returned with a solid
follow-up that finds the iconic adventurer
tackling snowy peaks, a private military and
daddy issues in Siberia.
Rise of the Tomb Raider (for Xbox 360
and Xbox One, $59.99) focuses on a more
capable and driven Croft as she attempts to
retrace her archaeologist fathers steps in his
undaunted quest to discover an ancient artifact
and lost city. However, shes not merely back

middle school entered high school at their
expected grade level in math.
She said it was heartening to see students
beginning to achieve the goals set by the
program.
We are feeling pretty inspired and
encouraged to keep up the work, she said.
The program is especially valuable to students from the North Central community,
said Bussey, because there is no neighborhood school so students are bused to other
campuses throughout the San Mateo- Foster
City Elementary School District, which
makes it difficult for them to take advantage
of after-school tutoring programs.
This is a grassroots effort to help kids
who go to San Mateo and Foster City
schools and live in North Central, she
said.
For her hard work, Bussey was recognized
by the Jefferson Awards, which honors
those who are committed to public service.
She said she has seen enrollment grow

to hunt treasure. This version of Croft is also


looking to clear her familys tarnished name.
Its an ambitious story, one that slips and
stumbles as much as Croft does throughout
her epic voyage over cliffs, through abandoned Soviet installations and into creepy
crypts. The gorgeously detailed atmosphere
of Rise of the Tomb Raider makes up for the
shaky plot, which will feel eerily similar to
those who played Uncharted 2: Among
Thieves. The designers have constructed a
colossal mountaineering playground for
Croft. The valleys and caves that hopefully
lead to the mythical Kitezh are supremely
more expansive than the perilous vistas of
the Yamatai island depicted in the previous
Tomb Raider. There are scads of intricate
nooks and crannies some inaccessible at

the start, some open worth visiting.


From a massive ship frozen vertically in
ice to a bloody bathhouse submerged underwater, the games subterranean areas are
absolutely stunning, so its confounding that
the developers have again opted to make
entering most of these areas optional excursions. This is a Tomb Raider game.
Shouldnt raiding tombs be, you know,
mandatory?
Anyway, Croft has an obligatorily evil
organization standing in her way this time
named Trinity. The groups seemingly endless waves of troopers with a few religious zealots thrown in for good measure
mostly serve as cannon fodder for Croft,
who is better equipped to handle baddies on
the fly with her snappy bow and assortment

of guns and explosives.


The developers have smartly expanded
Crofts ability to upgrade her gear. At a
moments notice, the British survivalist can
now craft ammo, bombs and distractions. For
example, plucking mushrooms mid-battle
will assist in making impromptu poisonous
arrows. Its a handy touch that illustrates
players are portraying a more savvy Croft in
Rise of the Tomb Raider.
As with the previous game, actress Camilla
Luddington is pitch-perfect as this Croft, and
the developers have mostly created an experience thats as sharp as Crofts trusty climbing
ax. Rise of the Tomb Raider continues to
move the revamped Croft down the right
path. It will be interesting to see where she
goes next. Three-and-a-half stars out of four.

from roughly 12 students when the program


began as a summer tutoring program on the
campus of College Park Elementary School
to serving a packed house full of students
with a waiting list to join.
Bussey worked for more than two decades
as a school counselor and was prepared to
walk away from education following her
retirement, but said she was called back to
serving youth in her community when the
need was presented.
I think my life journey just involves
helping children to achieve their potential, she said.
Kate Breaux, who has helped grow the
tutoring program, said Busseys work has
been integral in its success and popularity.
She does the type of work that gets
results, said Breaux. Shes a beautiful person.
Kai Ebens, a sophomore at Sequoia High
School in Redwood City, spends some of
her weeknights helping those about to
make the jump to high school understand
the complexity of upper division math
classes.
She said she enjoys the chance to teach
younger students appreciate the joy of
learning new methods and theories.
I think its a really great opportunity

because its free and everyone gets to benefit from it, she said.
Simon Montrose, also a student at
Sequoia High School, said tutoring at the
program offers a window for him to teaching, which is his preferred career path.
He said the tutoring is mutually beneficial
for students too, as they begin to understand
the foundation of math learning which will
serve them throughout their pursuit of a
higher education.
His passion is not lost on Alizeth Picos,
a student at Borel Middle School in San
Mateo, who is working with Montrose on a
homework assignment.
He is super amazing, said Picos, 11.
As the opportunity for additional education has been met with tremendous enthusiasm, directors of the program noted the
space they are using in the mezzanine of the
St. James AME Zion church is becoming
insufficient to accommodate demand.
Bussey said she would like to expand the
program, as it is run primarily through a
variety of small grants, but there are insufficient funds to grow beyond the current
enrollment.
At this point, we see a greater need that
we can fill, she said.
She said she would like to move the tutor-

ing program to a larger space in the North


Central neighborhood, with an eye to offering tutoring to elementary students.
The achievement gap for some students
can begin in their early years of education,
said Bussey, which is why it is difficult for
program directors to not be able to serve all
the demand that exists for tutoring services.
Its hard to leave out a student who we
know is already behind in math, she said.
But the program is not adequately funded
to serve students beyond the current enrollment, said Bussey.
We are kind of hand to mouth and that
makes it tough, she said.
Despite some of the programs challenges
and growing pains, Breaux said she is proud
to see the community take action to address
what some considered an injustice.
There are a lot of people in this world
who get ticked off and stay ticked off, she
said. Rather than stay angry, they decided
to do something about it.
Most importantly, Bussey said she has
seen a shift in the attitude of the students
enrolled in the program to embrace the
tutoring.
At first they didnt want to come, but
now they realize they are doing much better, she said.

want to make sure the crab is good quality
and safe for the public, he said. When
things are right, we will go at it.
Officials say crabs sold in stores and
restaurants remain safe to eat. Some crab on
the market now may have been harvested
months ago and frozen for later, or sourced
from other areas.
Domoic acid or amnesic shellfish toxin
can cause minor to severe illness and even

death. Cooking or freezing shellfish with


high levels of the toxin does not destroy it
and doesnt make it safe to eat.
Because the toxin tends to accumulate in
crab gut and in the fat inside the back of the
shell, officials say even when the meat has
been deemed safe people should remove all
the fat and discard the gut before consuming
the shellfish.
Other shellfish affected by domoic acid
include razor clams, which have been taken
off menus in Oregon and Washington.
Domoic acid has also been detected in mussels and oysters in the Puget Sound.

Crab seasons have been delayed in the


past, but mostly because the crab were not
full enough, said John Corbin, a fisherman
whose company has two Dungeness crab
boats in Warrenton, Ore.
Domoic acid has been found in crabs for
decades, usually at very low concentrations
that pose no risk, Corbin said. But elevated

MILLBRAE

Broadway, is only the first step in the
vision of Papan and Lee to make downtown a more attractive place for residents and shoppers, they say.
In an attempt to ensure the streets
stay clean, Papan and Lee said they
plan to propose introducing a city
ordinance which will impose a $250
fine on those caught littering downtown, once the new council forms in
the new year.
Lee said focusing on cleanliness is
an effort long overdue, as residents,
business owners and shoppers have
been upset for years about the amount
of trash and litter scattered across sidewalks.
Its messy, and dirty, but it has a lot
of potential, said Lee. If we dont get
our act together, we wont attract the
type of business everyone wants.
A code enforcement officer charged
with patrolling downtown Millbrae is
responsible for encouraging shoppers, residents and business owners to
clean up any mess they might make,
but they have no power to prevent people from littering, said Papan.
Imposing a fine would give the code
enforcement officer more teeth, said
Papan, which could be a more effective
means of stopping litterbugs.
Lee agreed with much of that perspective.
We have no means against enforc-

gain entry, during the day or evening,
according to reports.
During the most recent incident, a
resident was home when the criminals
broke in, which led to the victim being
pushed to the ground and robbed,
before the invaders escaped.
The resident suffered no major
injuries as a result of the assault,
according to the police.
Azzopardi said the characteristics of
the crimes match those of similar
home break-ins which occurred recently in Daly City, Pacifica and San
Bruno, and police from South San
Francisco are working with law
enforcement agencies from neighboring cities which they hope will lead to
a quick apprehension of the criminals.
Flo Teani, who has lived in South
San Francisco for much of her life, said
she considers the city a safe place, but
has been disturbed by the recent crime
spree.

Residents expressed concerns to
police during the town hall meeting
regarding how to best maintain their
safety while the criminals responsible
for the home burglaries are on the
loose.
Police offered a variety of tips which
could help tamp down crime, including
encouraging residents to report suspicious vehicles or activity in their
neighborhood, installing a home security system or simply ensuring to lock
doors.
If your home is secure, you are a lot
safer, said Sgt. Sean Curmi.
Residents though had a few thoughts
of their own regarding how safety and
crime prevention could be improved in
South San Francisco, and those sentiments were shared with police and city
officials at the meeting.
Many voiced frustrations regarding
the dimness of some of the street
lamps in downtown and neighborhoods throughout the city, and called
for the lights to be made brighter,
which would make residents feel safer.
JoAnn DAngelo, a South San
Francisco resident, passionately
encouraged police and city officials to
install better lighting.

We need to feel safe, she said.


Lets go back to the basics. Im paying taxes. I want lights.
Catherine Brosnan expressed a similar thought.
The streets are too dim, she said.
The bad guys are hiding, and we cant
see them.
City Manager Mike Futrell assured
residents their desires were noted, and
said officials would work to address the
street lighting issue.
At the request of another resident,
Azzopardi said police would like to
ramp up their presence on foot patrol
through neighborhoods, to build connections with local residents and
neighborhoods.
Developing a strong sense of community between residents can also be

NoTIcE To READERS:
California law requires that contractors
taking jobs that total $500 or more (labor
or materials) be licensed by the Contractors State License Board. State law also
requires that contractors include their license number in their advertising. You
can check the status of your licensed
contractor at www.cslb.ca.gov or 800321-CSLB. Unlicensed contractors taking
jobs that total less than $500 must state
in their advertisements that they are not
licensed by the Contractors State License Board.
