Governor offers $144B
budget, sees big surplus

SACRAMENTO — California Gov. Gavin Newsom
released a state budget proposal Thursday that seemingly
does it all — boosts spending toward his ambitious cam-
paign promises and sets aside significant contributions
toward debts and savings.
It appears he can have his cake and eat it too because he’s
projecting a massive $21.5 billion surplus — far beyond
anything the state has seen in nearly 20 years — as
California collects more in taxes than predicted and growth
slows for Medi-Cal, which provides health care for low-

DA committed to release of Taser death video

By Scott Morris
BAY CITY NEWS SERVICE
As the investigation into the Taser death
of Chinedu Okobi by five San Mateo
County sheriff’s deputies nears its conclu-
sion, San Mateo County District Attorney
Steve Wagstaffe said Wednesday that he is
working on a technological solution to
make all relevant video publicly available
on the internet.
Wagstaffe said he is committed to releas-
ing an edited arrangement of video from
three sources: deputies’ dash camera video,
bystander video and surveillance video from
a nearby business.
“There’s no one video that captures it
beginning to end,” Wagstaffe said.
In all, he said he expects to release about
25 minutes of video. While the dash cam
was left running for hours, he said most of it
isn’t relevant to the investigation, but he
would make the full videos available upon
request. The video will
likely be available via
his office’s website
when it is released some-
time later in January or
in early February.
It would be the same
video that Wagstaffe
screened for Okobi’s
Steve family, he said. After
Wagstaffe viewing the video,
Okobi’s sister,
Facebook’s public policy director for Africa
Ebele Okobi, publicly accused the sheriff’s
office of lying about the circumstances sur-
rounding her brother’s death, heightening
scrutiny of the case.
Chinedu Okobi was hit by a Taser by five
sheriff’s deputies on El Camino Real in
Millbrae on Oct. 3. The Sheriff’s Office
said he was “running in and out of traffic”
and then attacked a deputy. But Ebele Okobi
said he was on the sidewalk when a deputy
noticed him while driving and shouted at
him. She said he put his hands in the air,
but then tried to run when a deputy grabbed
him.
It was one of three deaths involving law
enforcement Tasers in San Mateo County in
2018. In August, 55-year-old Ramzi Saad
was killed in a confrontation with Redwood
City police officers. Last January, Warren
Ragudo died after a Taser deployment by a
Daly City police officer. Wagstaffe has
already declined to file criminal charges
against any of the officers in those cases.
Because of the unusual number of deaths
involving Tasers, civil rights attorney
John Burris, who is representing the Okobi
family, publicly called for a countywide
moratorium on Tasers and for investigators
to release any video of Okobi’s death.
“I have seen the video. It certainly raised
real questions in my own mind about the
initial stop, what was the legitimate basis
of the stop,” Burris said in December. “The
guy’s walking down the street seemingly
minding his own business. It looked to me
like the police initiated contact.”
Because of the attention to the case,
Wagstaffe hired a use of force expert to
review the investigation and make recom-
mendations before he makes a final deci-
sion on whether to seek criminal charges
against the sheriff’s deputies.
Wagstaffe said Wednesday that in mid-
December, he turned over all of the investi-
gation materials to the expert, a former law
enforcement officer who now provides
training in use of force and operates a con-
sulting business for law enforcement agen-
cies. The consultant indicated that his
analysis would take until mid-February at
the latest.
Once he has that analysis, Wagstaffe will
review and then announce his decision on
whether to charge the deputies. He said he
will release the video whether he decides to
charge the deputies or not.

A 44-year-old San Mateo County sheriff’s

Thursday.
Edmundo Rocha was sentenced Wednesday

Steve Wagstaffe said. Rocha was with the
Sheriff’s Office for 20 years.
Rocha was diagnosed with a left shoulder
sprain and was offered workers’ compensa-

eventually had him stay out of work on total

However, while on disability, he ran in a

Restaurant chain owner’s
assets seized in wage theft case
The owners of a Bay Area restaurant chain
have had $1.7 million in assets seized to
help pay back 56 employees who were
allegedly victims of wage theft while work-
ing at Mango Garden restaurants in three
counties, labor officials said Wednesday.
According to the state’s Department of
Industrial Relations and the Labor and
Workforce Development Agency, the work-
ers were being paid in cash and their
employers were keeping 15 percent off the
top for “taxes.”
They were also paid below minimum wage
and denied overtime pay and meal breaks.
Investigators looking into the case said
employees were often working 10-hour
days.
The Mango Garden had Chinese-
Malaysian restaurants in San Jose, Fremont
and San Mateo but all three locations have
closed, according to yelp.com.
The owner’s assets have been seized by
the Alameda County District Attorney’s
Office, and those are being liquidated to pay
off the victims. The 56 workers affected in
the case are owed about $37,000 on aver-
age, although the specific amount owed to
each one varies.

Attorney General Xavier Becerra has no dedicated team of advisers and attorneys focused on the Trump administration.
Top prosecutor’s past infuses
California’s battle with Trump
By Sudhin Thanawala
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO — When President
Donald Trump revoked protections for
young immigrants known as
“Dreamers,” California’s top prosecu-
tor, Attorney General Xavier Becerra,
turned to a member of his office’s civil
rights section to craft the state’s legal
response.
Michael Newman, who now heads
that section, recalled days of strategiz-
ing and drafting with “no defined barri-
er of day and night.” Becerra led meet-
ings from a wooden conference table in
his Sacramento office with about a
dozen attorneys and advisers.
On Sept. 11, 2017, less than a week
after the president’s decision,
California filed a federal lawsuit accus-
ing the Trump administration of trying
STATE/NATION
to push the 800,000 immigrants who
benefited from the Obama-era Deferred
Action for Childhood Arrivals program
“back into the shadows of American
life.” The suit helped lead to the first
nationwide court order requiring the
U.S. Department of Homeland Security
to continue DACA for existing
enrollees.
The attorney general and members of
his staff in recent interviews discussed
the DACA lawsuit as part of a broader
glimpse into the office’s decision-mak-
ing and structure to fight Trump admin-
istration policies. The U.S. Supreme
Court is scheduled on Jan. 11 to consid-
er taking up an appeal in the DACA case.
Becerra has been among the most
aggressive of the Democratic state
attorneys general who have battled
Trump in court. Since former Gov. Jerry
Brown appointed him to the job two
HOUSE DEMOCRATS ON FOTER.COM
years ago, Becerra has taken on the
Trump administration in nearly 100
briefs and other legal actions, including
45 lawsuits filed mostly over immigra-
tion, the environment and health care
and often joined by other attorneys
general.
He has notched some significant vic-
tories, though many of the cases are
still pending in court. But his office’s
operation against the Trump adminis-
tration — who works on the cases, how
much it costs and how the office
approaches potential suits — has large-
ly remained opaque.
Becerra, who handily won the Nov. 6
election for a full term, has no dedicated
team of advisers and attorneys focused
on the Trump administration. But some
attorneys have worked on multiple
suits challenging White House poli-
cies.

In rare move, California
court denies 10 clemency requests
SACRAMENTO — The California Supreme Court denied
10 clemency requests by former Gov. Jerry Brown, the first
time it has exercised that power in more
than half a century.
Brown granted a historic 1,332 par-
dons and 283 commutations during his
final two terms as part of a push to scale
back the state’s tough-on-crime
approach that began under his first gov-
ernorship. But the court blocked 10 of
those requests in the final weeks of the
Jerry Brown Brown administration, which ended this
month. The court has not rejected pardon
or commutation requests under a governor’s consideration
since 1930 but earlier noted it had the authority in the case
of an “abuse of power.”
A court representative said the justices are not planning
to provide any further clarification.
The court’s rejections have baffled judicial observers.
Doctors: Pelvic mesh
lawsuits by four states are ill-advised
SEATTLE — Doctors who specialize in female pelvic
medicine say lawsuits by four states, including Washington
and California, over products used to treat pelvic floor dis-
orders and incontinence might scare patients away from the
best treatment options — or maybe even push the products
off the market.
Sixty-three Washington surgeons signed a letter to state
Attorney General Bob Ferguson , arguing his consumer-
protection lawsuit against Johnson & Johnson and its
Ethicon Inc. subsidiary is off-base. The lawsuit says the
companies failed to disclose risks associated with the prod-
ucts, but in their letter the doctors said they were never
deceived and that the case is based on a misconception
about how they assess dangers posed by medical proce-
dures.
Expert: Comatose woman
may not have shown signs of pregnancy
PHOENIX — A doctor examined an Arizona woman in a
vegetative state nearly nine months before she gave birth
but did not find that she was pregnant, and medical experts
said Thursday that it’s possible she displayed no outward
signs that workers who cared for her every day would have
noticed either.
Police are looking for her rapist and say it appears none
of the staff members at a Phoenix long-term care facility
knew about the pregnancy until the baby was born Dec. 29,
a notion that has drawn skepticism. But the 29-year-old
woman, who is described in a medical report as having tubes
to feed her and help her breathe, may not have had a swollen
belly, according to a doctor of fetal medicine.

Trump moves closer to emergency declaration
By Catherine Lucey,
Lisa Mascaro and Zeke Miller
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
McALLEN, Texas — Taking the shutdown
fight to the Mexican border, President
Donald Trump edged closer Thursday to
declaring a national emergency in an
extraordinary end run around Congress to
fund his long-promised border wall.
Pressure was mounting to find an escape
hatch from the three-week impasse that has
closed parts of the government, cutting
scattered services and leaving hundreds of
thousands of workers without pay.
Trump, visiting McAllen, Texas, and the
Rio Grande to highlight what he says is a
crisis of drugs and crime, said that “if for
any reason we don’t get this going” — an
agreement with House Democrats who have
refused to approve the $5.7 billion he
demands for the wall — “I will declare a
national emergency.”
Some 800,000 workers, more than half of
them still on the job, were to miss their
first paycheck on Friday under the stop-
page, and Washington was close to setting
a dubious record for the longest government
shutdown in the nation’s history. Those
markers — along with growing effects to
national parks, food inspections and the

Such a move to bypass Congress’ consti-
tutional control of the nation’s purse
strings would spark certain legal challenges
and bipartisan cries of executive overreach.
A congressional official said the White
House has directed the Army Corps of
Engineers to look for billions of dollars
earmarked last year for disaster response
for Puerto Rico and other areas that could be
diverted to a border wall as part of the emer-

the condition of anonymity because the
official was not authorized to speak pub-
licly.
“We’re either going to have a win, make a
compromise — because I think a compro-
mise is a win for everybody — or I will
declare a national emergency,” Trump said
before departing the White House for his
politically flavored visit to the border. He
wore his campaign-slogan “Make America
Great Again” cap throughout.
It was not clear what a compromise might
entail, and there were no indications that
one was in the offing. Trump says he won’t
reopen the government without money for
the wall. Democrats say they favor meas-
ures to bolster border security but oppose
the long, impregnable barrier that Trump
envisions.

Trump’s first Oval Office address
The New York Times
H
ow fitting is it that President
Trump’s first Oval Office
address, which he requested be
televised live in prime time by every
major network, was aimed at stirring
up the American public about a crisis
largely of his own making?
Not that the border crisis is one of
Mr. Trump’s self-serving political fic-
tions — like the deep state or wide-
spread voter fraud. It may have started
out that way, but the situation has,
with the president’s nurturing, become
something far more tragic.
Pursuing poorly thought-out and
even more poorly executed policies on
the pretext of battling a nonexistent
national security crisis, Mr. Trump has
helped create a pressing humanitarian
one. Desperate migrant families being
detained en masse at the border are
overwhelming a system pushed
beyond its limits by an administration
that chose to ignore the implications
of its actions — overcrowding, chil-
dren falling gravely ill and, paradoxi-
cally, the haphazard release of throngs
of detainees into border communities
stretching from California to Texas.
Mr. Trump is now invoking the
urgency of the situation as a justifica-
tion for pursuing more wasteful, hard-
line measures that most Americans do
not support, chiefly the ludicrous bor-
der wall over which he has shut down
critical pieces of the government. The
president and his enablers have been
busily knitting together inaccurate
data, misleading anecdotes, exaggera-
tions and other “alternative facts”
about the flow of criminals, drugs and
terrorists across the southern border.
He seems to hope he can paint a
dystopian landscape of security threats
and human suffering so dire that the
American people will rally to his side
and pressure congressional Democrats
to succumb to his demands for a tower-
ing wall — preferably concrete, but at

thousands of children, families and
individuals are being held by our gov-
ernment in intolerable conditions, are

ing for a first interview for asylum, or

this point, it seems, steel will suffice.
Failing that, Mr. Trump has also
been floating the possibility of stiff-
arming Congress altogether. With his
advisers increasingly anxious that
Republican lawmakers are poised to
abandon them on the shutdown, the
president has raised the threat of
declaring a national emergency, which
he thinks would allow him to com-
mand the Pentagon to build his wall.
Such a move would prompt a swift
and furious legal challenge, if not a
full-blown constitutional crisis, that
could drag on indefinitely. It would,
however, also give Mr. Trump a way to
reach a wall-free funding deal with
Congress without losing face, thus
weaseling out of the shutdown box
into which he has nailed himself.
The border wall began life as an
applause line at Mr. Trump’s rallies,
and it has endured as the rare — per-
haps even sole — policy objective
that actually matters to him. The sub-
stance of true border security may not
interest him much, but this symbol
sure does.
While Mr. Trump proved a wily cam-
paigner and political street fighter, as
president he has been painfully out of
his element. Two years in, he remains
ill suited to the complicated, thank-
less, often grinding work of leading
the nation. Governance clearly bores
him, as do policy details both foreign
and domestic. He has proved a poor
judge of talent. He prefers grandstand-
ing to negotiating, and he continues
to have trouble with the whole concept
of checks and balances. While the
Republican base remains enamored of
him, most of the electorate has grown
weary of his outrages and antics.
Which is why, with his wall on the
line, Mr. Trump so desperately needs
to convince the American people that
especially the newly Democratic
Party controlled House of
Representatives disagree.  Congress should also launch imme-

For whom the toll tolls
F
or the average person, it really doesn’t matter what
government agency owns and operates new toll
lanes for Highway 101. The average person falls
into two camps: You think the toll lanes are a terrible idea,
or you think they are a good idea.
Either way, the toll lanes are coming. The fact that San
Mateo County never had carpool lanes extend throughout
it is significant. For those who hate them, this resistance
is noteworthy. But welcome to regionalism.
The toll lanes are coming. Initial reservations by certain
elected officials over equity have fallen by the wayside and
now it’s wrangling over who will own and operate the new
lanes.
It breaks down into regional
versus local control, and going
with an agency who is already
doing this all over the place or
going with one that isn’t.
The easy option would be to
go with the regional agency,
which is the Bay Area
Infrastructure Financing
Authority, a joint powers
authority between the
Metropolitan Transportation
Commission and the Bay Area
Toll Authority since it has the
infrastructure in place and is
ready to go. The argument for
it also seems to be it would be easier to do the next phase,
which is extending the toll lanes into San Francisco.
The other option is to have San Mateo County own the
express lanes and the Santa Clara Valley Transportation
Authority operate them. The benefit to this would be local
control though the latest wrinkle is a proposal that BAIFA
might operate them while San Mateo County retains own-
ership. That proposal is now not so solid, but it might be
worked out. In fact, all of this will be worked out in short
order, though there are a couple of points to be brought up.
While there are benefits to joining the regional effort,
there is something about local control of the revenue that
these lanes will generate. Though officials say revenue is
not the point of these lanes, they contend rather it is traf-
fic control, it is still very much part of the rationale. And
these lanes will generate millions — estimated to be about
$10 million to $20 million a year. Highway 101 in San
Mateo County could very well be the biggest revenue gen-
erator of the whole Managed Lanes system. The money
could go into a larger regional pot with some local repre-
sentation on the oversight board, or it could remain local
with oversight here. That would mean we could retain con-
trol over policy — such as whether expensive electric cars
actually deserve a toll break, how much subsidy should
low-income drivers get and changes to the price per mile.
The decisions are in two arenas right now, between the
and the San Mateo County Transportation Authority. Both
are trying to reconcile the viewpoints of their various rep-
resentatives, who are local elected officials. Both groups
usually do their work under the radar, but contend with
some fairly substantial transportation decisions. C/CAG
works on quality of life issues such as air quality, environ-
mental issues and transportation, among others while the
TA operates under the SamTrans umbrella and typically
decides how to dole out the county’s half-cent sales tax
This is a complicated and, for many, boring topic. Most
people tend to focus on when the lanes will be built
(spring 2019 to mid-2022), how much construction will
cost ($514 million), how much it will cost per mile ($1),
reduce traffic (who knows?).
While that focus is all for good reasons, behind that is
some fairly deliberative work by staff and elected officials
trying to make sure the details of this massive infrastruc-
ture deal don’t end up being something we regret in the
future.
***
Speaking of boring but important, passing a general
plan is not something that typically comes up at cocktail
parties, but it is one of a city council’s most notable tasks.
The fact that the city of Burlingame just passed a new
General Plan that allows for population and employment
growth is significant. The growth will be in key areas: in
the north end by the Millbrae BART station and on
Broadway, where second-floor residential will be allowed.
It accounts for a population growth over a number of years
of just more than 20 percent. So it’s growth, just the type
that is responsible enough to not ruffle many feathers.
***
So long to Aaron Aknin, Redwood City’s assistant city
manager and community development director. He will be
leaving the positions Feb. 13 to start his own consulting
firm based here on the Peninsula. Aknin always had infor-
mation of all kinds at the ready about happenings in
Redwood City.

Industrials lead stocks higher again

By Marley Jay
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — A day of back-
and-forth trading Thursday ended
with the fifth gain in a row for
U.S. stocks. Industrial companies
like Boeing and General Electric
rose while retailers fell as Macy’s
suffered its biggest loss of all
time.
Stocks struggled in the early
going and the Dow Jones
Industrial Average lost 175 points
after U.S. and Chinese officials
wrapped trade talks in Beijing.
Transportation and machinery
companies climbed after the U.S.
Trade Representative said China

Macy’s said its sales over the
holidays were worse than expected
and slashed its annual profit and

Brands also posted disappointing
results and a wide variety of retail-
ers plunged as investors worried
that the stock market’s December
plunge stopped some shoppers
from spending as much as they had
planned.
“High-end consumers, even
though they’re making decent
money (and) the economy is
going on relatively strong, it may
have affected their willingness to
splurge over the holidays,” said
Ken Perkins, president of the

was not good timing at all.”
The S&P 500 index added 11.68

Strong economy does little to lift department store sales

By Anne D’Innocenzio
and Michelle Chapman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — It was supposed
to be a great holiday shopping
season. Many investors had
expected department stores to
enjoy robust sales in light of a
U. S. economy buoyed by low
unemployment, higher wages,
strong consumer confidence and
cheap gas.
So when Macy’s and Kohl’s
reported lackluster numbers on
Thursday, they were taken aback,
sending retail stocks into a tail-
REUTERS FILE PHOTO spin and calling into question

can compete in a changing land-
scape where shoppers are shifting
more of their spending online.
Macy’s saw only a slight
increase of 1.1 percent in sales
during November-December at
stores opened at least year. And
while sales were strong during
Black Friday and Cyber Monday,
the company said sales fell off
noticeably until the week of
Christmas.
Meanwhile, Kohl’s reported a
small sales growth that showed a
dramatic slowdown from a year
ago. Comparable sales rose 1.2
percent, versus 6.9 percent in the
previous year.
Shares of Macy’s plummeted
nearly 18 percent Thursday, suffer-
ing its worst one-day decline.
Kohl’s stock closed down nearly 5
percent. Even Target’s stock took
a hit, falling nearly 3 percent
despite showing strong holiday
sales.
Earlier this week, J.C. Penney,
one of the stragglers in the depart-
ment store sector, reported a drop
in comparable store sales of 3.5
percent for November and
December. But because Macy’s is
considered a barometer of spend-
ing, particularly for the middle
class and for mall spending,
investors may be looking for
deeper meaning in its perform-
ance.

Coke-funded group swayed China’s obesity efforts, papers say

By Candice Choi
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — A group funded by the food
industry undermined China’s efforts to keep
obesity rates in check by overemphasizing
the importance of physical activity rather
than dietary habits, according to new
research.
The International Life Sciences Institute,
created in 1978 by a former Coke execu-
tive, is funded by companies including
McDonald’s, PepsiCo and Red Bull. It
sponsors scientific research and confer-
ences on food through its 17 international
branches.
Its small, but influential, China branch
organized obesity conferences focusing on
physical activity, with speakers including
Coke-funded researchers and a Coke execu-
tive. The group enjoyed close ties to gov-
ernment health agencies because of the
stature of its long-time leader, according to
papers published in The BMJ and The
Journal of Public Health Policy . A nation-
al exercise program for school children
called “Happy 10 Minutes” was modeled
after a pet project of the former Coke exec-
utive who founded ILSI.
Susan Greenhalgh, the papers’ author and
a researcher of Chinese society at Harvard,
noted the difficultly in trying to untangle
how much of China’s emphasis on exercise
in recent years can be attributed to ILSI’s
influence. But she said ILSI’s activities
highlight the difficulty in assessing how
food makers may be skewing public policy
around the world.
“There’s virtually no research on the
incredibly complicated network by which
ILSI Global and all its branches have been
influencing obesity science,” she said.
Chinese health officials did not immedi-
ately respond to a request for comment. In a
statement, ILSI did not directly address the
research findings but said it “does not pro-
fess to have been perfect in our 40-year his-
tory.” It said it has instituted guidelines in
recent years to ensure scientific integrity.

Two titles and counting

By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Carlmont’s Viveka Kurup had already proven herself to be

one the Peninsula Athletic League’s rising young golf stars.
In 2017, she helped guide the first-year Scots program to an
undefeated Ocean Division championship and a surprising
Central Coast Section team berth, while also capturing the
PAL individual title.
2018 presented a lot of new challenges for the young
Scots’ team in general, and Kurup in particular. Having
moved into the Bay Division, Carlmont was facing a high-
er level of talent and playing on a tougher course at San
Mateo’s Poplar Creek. A late-season slump saw the Scots
have their 19-match PAL winning streak snapped, while
Kurup was no longer considered a lock to win a second
straight PAL title. She failed to beat San Mateo freshman
Lindsey Huang in a pair of regular-season, nine-hole match-
es as San Mateo went on to finish with an undefeated Bay
Division team championship.
And to top it all off, she was struggling during the PAL
championship tournament on a Poplar Creek course she
owned the week before in a practice round, firing a 5-under
66.
“Last year, it was different playing in the lower league.
This year was a little more stressful,” Kurup said, citing the
jump in the level of competition being the biggest differ-
ence.

A family affair
Father-daughter coaching
rivals set for first showdown
By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

The day Jefferson’s Marisa Igafo

was hired to her first varsity head
coaching job this season, she was
immediately excited —  but terri-
fied.
What terrified the Daly City
native wasn’t running a varsity
program. Igafo — who grew up in a
basketball household, playing
three years for her father at Oceana
— comes from a family that bleeds
basketball.
No, what freaked out the 27-year-
old Igafo was Friday night’s
Peninsula Athletic League North
Division matchup, as her Jefferson
Grizzlies go head-to-head with the
three-time defending league cham-
pion South City Warriors, coached
by none other than her father Paul
Carion.
“I’m a little nervous because …
leading up to this game, we’re not
really comparing notes,” Igafo
said. “I’m nervous but I think he’s
going to coach his girls hard and
he’s going to coach it like he’s not

Carion — who coached at Oceana
from 2004-08, then took over at
South City in 2012 — echoed his
daughter’s sentiments.

Two-goal third lifts Sharks to win
By W.G. Ramirez
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LAS VEGAS — Melker Karlsson and
Joonas Donskoi scored third-period goals
39 seconds apart to lift the San Jose Sharks
over the Vegas Golden Knights 3-2 on
Thursday night.
San Jose won its fifth straight and ended
the Golden Knights’ seven-game winning
streak. The Sharks (59 points) leapfrogged
Vegas in the Pacific Division standings and
are one point behind Calgary for the top
spot.
Brent Burns’ shot from the point rebound-

puck bounce off him amid heavy traffic in

Warriors will put Cousins in starting lineup in his return
By Janie McCauley
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
OAKLAND — DeMarcus Cousins will
start immediately for coach Steve Kerr when
the All-Star center makes his long-awaited
Warriors debut in about a week following a
lengthy recovery from surgery on a torn left
Achilles tendon.
Cousins has targeted Golden State’s game
Jan. 18 at the Clippers as his return date and
first game of the season, though Kerr said it
could even be sooner if all continues going
well — perhaps even against his former
New Orleans team at home next Wednesday.
“The idea is we have to give ourselves a
little leeway,” Kerr said Thursday. “That
Clipper game is sort of the one we’ve tar-
geted but we should give ourselves some
leeway on either side, because we have to
see how the next week goes. I suppose it’s a
possibility that it could be New Orleans,
maybe there’s a possibility it’s whoever’s
after the Clippers ... Lakers. That’s the
range that we’re looking at.”

for a 6:15 p.m. tipoff at Jefferson. Even her
older sister Rachel, the eldest of Carion’s
three children, is celebrating a birthday
Friday and is expected to be in attendance.
It’s no wonder. It might just be the only
chance to see the father-daughter combina-
tion, fast establishing themselves as local
basketball royalty, in a contentious situa-
tion. Otherwise, the two have long been
joined at the hip.
Not only did Igafo play for Carion at
Oceana, his sabbatical from high school
coaching between 2009 and ’12 was so he
could travel to watch her college games at De
Anza College and then Cal Maritime. To this
day, as busy as they are with their respective
teams, the two attend each other’s games

(128) all won their matches by pin.
But the final two matches, at 140 and 147,
provided some entertaining wrestling.
The best match of the night came in the
147-pound weight class where M-A’s Caleb
Prouty and Aragon’s Basarm Shokri-Nirl
engaged in a technical, tactical match, one in
which Prouty prevailed, 4-3.
“I wasn’t expecting it to be that close,” said
Prouty, a sophomore. “I thought it would be a
blowout for me or a blowout for him.”
Shokri-Nirl led for a majority of the match
but, in the final minute, Prouty got his only
takedown of the match, lifting and taking
Shokri-Nirl to the floor —  spilling out of
bounds.
But the referee ruled Prouty had gained con-
trol before going out of bounds and awarded
the M-A wrestler the two points for the take-
down.
Prouty then maintained his grip as Shokri-
Nirl worked for the 1-point escape in the final
moments that would have tied the match, but
Prouty held on for the win.
The two spent a majority of the match in the
middle of the mat, working to gain wrist con-
trol with a lot of hand checking. Prouty
briefly lost his balance and Shokri-Nirl
pounced, gaining control and two points mid-
way through the first period. Prouty got a 1-
point escape about 20 seconds later and
“I’m definitely extremely proud of her. She’s definitely
changing the culture (at Jefferson) and she’s really creating
the buzz around campus. … When it’s all said and done,
she’s going to be a better coach than I ever was.”

ing the buzz around campus. … When it’s all
said and done, she’s going to be a better
coach than I ever was.”
That’s quite a high bar. In his seventh year
at South City, Carion has won 114 games
there, including three first-place and two
second-place finishes in the PAL North. Last
season, he led South City to the program’s
first-ever Central Coast Section champi-
onship.
And with the team now posting a 6-7 over-
all record through a tough non-league slate,
and off to a 2-0 start in league, Carion is
guardedly optimistic the Warriors can con-
tend for a PAL North four-peat this season.
“I think we’ll be competing,” Carion said.
“I still think Terra Nova, Westmoor and us
will be right there competing. I think we’ll
be in the running.”
Aragon’s Carl Kohnke rides M-A’s Cyrus Durham to a 7-2 victory in a 140-pund match.
trailed 2-1 after one period.
Prouty tied the match at 2-all with an escape
after starting the second round in the down
position, but Shokri-Nirl got an escape of his
own to take a 3-2 lead early in the third peri-
od.
Prouty looked poised to take the lead, when
he gained control and took Shokri-Nirl down
— but it was determined it occurred out of
bounds and no points were awarded.
It merely set up Prouty’s match-winning
takedown about a minute later.
“Once it got close, I said, ‘I really want
this,’” Prouty said. “It felt really good (to get
the win).”
Aragon picked up its only win on the mat in
Carion’s next test, though, will be Igafo
and her revitalized Grizzlies, who are look-
ing to finish over .500 for the first time
since 2010-11.
Seeing a father and daughter coach against
one another isn’t unheard of, but it is rare. In
Texas, there is one: Ingleside girls’ head
coach Steve Hale and his daughter, Miller-
Corpus Christi head coach Morgan Hale. In
their second year coaching concurrently,
their schools don’t meet on the regular-sea-
son schedule, but have squared off in presea-
son scrimmages.
On the local scene, there is a father-son
coaching tandem, with Kyle Scheppler at
Crystal Springs Uplands and his father, Doc

the previous match, the 140-pound match
between Dons’ junior Carl Kohnke and M-A
freshman Cyrus Durham.
Kohnke controlled Durham for most of the
match. He had a pair of 2-point takedowns
over the first two periods and earned a fifth
point when Durham was penalized for stalling
in the second period.
Kohnke got a pair of 1-point escapes in the
third period, sandwiched around Durham’s
only points of the match on a takedown as
Kohnke went on to a 7-2 victory.

have never coached against one another in a
high school game.
At Terra Nova, girls’ basketball head
coach Kawann Summerville has coached
against his brother Kareem in non-league
action in each of the past two seasons.
Kareem Summerville, who is now the head
coach at Dublin, previously coached at Terra
Nova from 2008-16. And both Summerville
brothers coached Igafo when she played
AAU basketball for the North Peninsula
Force.
It should come as no surprise Igafo and
Carion have similar coaching styles. Both
are upbeat, intuitive and intense. It’s the
style in which Igafo was raised, not just as a
daughter, but also as an all-league point
guard when the father-daughter combo, as
coach and player, reached the CCS playoffs
three years in a row, the best such run in pro-
gram history.
“He’s always a coach,” Igafo said. “He
always helped me and told me when I was
really young he was always going to be my
No. 1 fan. But he’s also here to correct me.
… I can always count on him for an honest,
full report.”

KURUP
Continued from page 11
In the end, Kurup did just enough, shoot-
ing a 5-over 76 to claim her second PAL
individual championship. She followed that
with the highest CCS finish of anyone from
a San Mateo County school and will end her
sophomore season as the Daily Journal’s
Girls’ Golfer of the Year.
“I’m sure she could have played better
(during the PAL tournament), but it was
good enough to win,” said Carlmont head
coach Johnny Hsu. “I know she was very
stoked she won again.”
Just chalk it up the competitor in Kurup.
It was that late-season slide and her meet-
ings with San Mateo’s Huang that kicked
Kurup’s focus up a notch. It would be easy
for Kurup and the Scots to get lackadaisi-
cal after playing nearly two seasons with-
out losing a team match. But Hsu kept
reminding them that a roll like that was

She explained her decision in a confer-
ence call with reporters following the draft.
“There were a couple of factors and of
course numerous conversations but I would
say the biggest factor was putting me in the
best position to develop as a soccer player
in these coming months before the World
Cup, and then beyond looking at the very
busy women’s national team schedule
between now and the end of 2020, ”
Davidson said.

the exception, not the rule.
When the Scots did lose their first PAL
match in nearly two seasons, 222-239 to
San Mateo, Hsu said Kurup may have taken
it harder than anybody.
“We won a lot of matches, but you’re
going to lose eventually,” Hsu said. “The
first time we lost this year … that was not a
day Viveka wanted to be in the van (for the
ride home).”
Kurup and Huang, as the No. 1 golfers for
their respective teams, played in the same
group during both team matches. The two
both shot rounds of 38s during the first
Bearcats victory. The second time around,
Huang topped Kurup by a shot —  37-38
—  as San Mateo completed the season
sweep with 212-234 victory.
“When she beat me that time, I said it was
time to get it together for PALs,” Kurup
said.
Kurup was also confident once postseason
tournaments expanded to 18 holes, instead
of nine holes played during team matches,
her skills would put her over the top.
four-round draft. Stanford’s Jordan DiBiasi
went with the third overall pick to the
Washington Spirit. The Spirit also got the
No. 4 pick, taking Clemson defender Sam
Staab. USC forward Leah Pruitt went to the
North Carolina Courage to round out the top
five.
Davidson played mostly at center back in
her 12 appearances last year with the
national team, all starts, and she belied her
age with her composure on the ball and
technical savvy. She scored her first goal, a
header off a corner kick, against Chile.
But then Davidson’s junior season with
Stanford was cut short when she fractured
her ankle in a game against North Carolina
in September.
Now well on the way to full recovery,
It didn’t go as smoothly as she had hoped
and while Kurup is not one to keep close
tabs on what her playing partners are doing,
she has a general sense of the situation.
But even she was not sure she had done
enough to win a second PAL title until their
scores were added up at the end of the round.
Kurup’s 76 was one stroke better than
Burlingame’s Jody Chiu and two strokes
better than South City’s Catherine Batang.
“I had a really good front nine. The back,
my energy or focus went down and I started
losing it. [Chiu] was having a better back
nine,” Kurup said. “(But) I don’t really pay
attention to [the other scores]. I used to
focus on that — she’s plus-2, I’m minus-2
or whatever. That distracted me.”
Sometimes, however, a distraction is
needed and Kurup is usually the one to pro-
vide it. For all of her laser focus on the
course, she is kind of the team goofball off
of it.
“Our p ract i ces are after sch ool, so
everyone is tense, ” Kurup said. “I try to
tell a couple jokes. I’ll try to get every-
Davidson told The Associated Press last
month that she was focused on making the
U.S. roster and was concerned about how to
juggle that with Stanford’s rigorous academ-
ic requirements.
She said Thursday she still plans to return
to Stanford for her degree.
The NWSL adopted rules this year that
allow players who are 18 to enter the draft
with college eligibility remaining.
The league announced Wednesday that it
was also going to allow for increased
salaries and roster size, as well as a greater
salary cap, ahead of the 2019 season.
Rosters will be allowed to expand to a
maximum of 22 players. Teams will also be
allowed four supplemental roster spots for

one in a light-hearted mood. ”
Hsu believes Kurup’s ability to connect
with everyone on the team, coupled with her
skill, has been a benefit for the team as a
whole. 
“If I’m the head coach, she’s the assis-
tant,” Hsu said. “We’re trying to build the
team as a whole group, but when she needs
to go and work on something, (she’ll) go
and do it. But if she feels the need to help
people, she will.
“She’s a good teammate. She’s worried
about the team.”
Kurup had only a week or so to enjoy her
PAL title as she and her Scots teammates
were prepared to make a second straight
CCS appearance and once again, Kurup
proved to be the class of the Peninsula with
a tie for 13th-place finish following a round
of 5-over 77 on a difficult Laguna Seca
course in Monterey.
“Like my dad tells me, ‘If you’re playing a
short amount of holes, anyone can win. But
playing 18 holes, it really determines the

count against the cap.
The salary cap for the coming season was
set at $421,500 (up from $350,000 last
year) while salaries were set at $16,538 at
minimum (up from $15,750) and $46,200 at
maximum (up from $44, 000). National
team allocated players are paid by their fed-
erations.
“It’s really important that we continue to
grow the compensation areas and the bene-
fits we provide to the players,” league man-
aging director Amanda Duffy said. “They’re
employees of NWSL and we want to contin-
ue to build the relationship and create the

Mike Pompeo repudiates Obama
Mideast policy, takes aim at Iran
By Matthew Lee
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CAIRO — U.S. Secretary of State
Mike Pompeo delivered a scathing
rebuke of the Obama
a dm i n i s t r a t i o n ’s
Mideast policies on
Thursday, accusing
the former president
of “misguided” and
“wishful” thinking
that diminished
America’s role in the
Barack Obama region, harmed its
longtime friends and
emboldened its main foe: Iran.
In a speech to the American
University in Cairo, Pompeo unloaded
on President Donald Trump’s predeces-
sor, saying he was naive and timid
when confronted with challenges
posed by the revolts that convulsed
the Middle East, including Egypt,
beginning in 2011.
Pompeo laid the blame notably on a
vision outlined by President Barack
Obama in a speech he gave in Cairo in
2009 in which he spoke of “a new
beginning” for U.S. relations with
countries in the Arab and Muslim world.
“Remember: It was here, here in this
very city, another American stood
before you,” Pompeo told an invited
audience of Egyptian officials, foreign
diplomats and students. “He told you
that radical Islamist terrorism does not
stem from ideology. He told you 9/11
led my country to abandon its ideals,
particularly in the Middle East. He told
you that the United States and the
Muslim world needed ‘a new begin-
ning.’ The results of these misjudg-

U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo speaks to the media as he leaves the Coptic
Orthodox Cathedral of the Nativity Christ in Egypt’s New Administrative Capital.
“In falsely seeing ourselves as a force
for what ails the Middle East, we were
timid about asserting ourselves when
the times — and our partners — demand-
ed it,” Pompeo said, without mention-
ing the former president by name.
Pompeo’s speech came on the third
leg of a nine-nation Mideast tour aimed
at reassuring America’s Arab partners
that the Trump administration is not
walking away from the region amid con-
fusion and concern over plans to with-
draw U.S. forces from Syria.
Former Obama administration offi-
cials rejected Pompeo’s assertions as
petty, political and weak. They said the
speech pandered to authoritarian leaders
and ignored rights violations that
Obama had called out.

“That this administration feels the
need, nearly a decade later, to take pot-
shots at an effort to identify common
ground between the Arab world and the
West speaks not only to the Trump
administration’s pettiness but also to
its lack of a strategic vision for
America’s role in the region and its abdi-
cation of America’s values,” National
Security Action group, a group of former
officials, said in a statement.
Rob Malley, who was Obama’s
national security council director for the
Middle East and is now at the
International Crisis Group, said hearing
Pompeo’s speech was like “like listen-
ing to someone from a parallel uni-
verse” in which the region’s shortcom-
ings were ignored.

Kim looking to ‘achieve
results’ in second summit with Trump
BEIJING — North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has report-
edly told the leader of his only major ally, China, that he
wants to “achieve results” on the nuclear
standoff on the Korean Peninsula during
a second summit with U.S. President
Donald Trump.
The comments, contained in Chinese
state media reports Thursday, came a day
after Kim left Beijing on his special
armored train after a two-day visit to the
Chinese capital.
Kim Jong Un Kim’s trip to China — his fourth in the
past 10 months — is believed to be an
effort to coordinate with Beijing ahead of a possible second
summit with Trump. It comes after U.S. and North Korean
officials are thought to have met in Vietnam to discuss the
site of the summit.
North Korea will “make efforts for the second summit
between (North Korean) and U.S. leaders to achieve results
that will be welcomed by the international community,”
Kim was quoted as saying by China’s official Xinhua News
Agency.
Bomb-laden rebel drone
kills six at Yemen military parade
SANAA, Yemen — A bomb-laden drone launched by
Yemen’s Shiite rebels exploded over a military parade
Thursday for the Saudi-led coalition, killing at least six
people in a brazen attack threatening an uneasy U.N.-bro-
kered peace in the Arab world’s poorest nation.
The attack at the Al-Anad Air Base showed the unwilling-
ness of Yemen’s Houthi rebels to halt fighting in the civil
war, even if it doesn’t violate a peace deal reached last
month in Sweden between them and Yemen’s international-
ly recognized government.
The Houthi attack near the southern port city of Aden with
a new drone variant also raised more questions about Iran’s
alleged role in arming the rebels with drone and ballistic
missile technology, something long denied by Tehran
despite researchers and U.N. experts linking the weapons to
the Islamic Republic.
The assault shocked the pro-government troops, who car-
ried away the dead and wounded, their fatigues stained with
blood. All the victims were government forces, officials
said.

LANES
Continued from page 1
city’s stretch of Highway 101 at their Jan.
22 meeting, they weighed the cost of
increasing the wall height on either side of
the freeway as well as concerns from resi-
dents about a study of the noise expected to
emanate from the project.
Expected to extend from Whipple Avenue
to Interstate 380 on the San Mateo County
stretch of Highway 101, the Managed Lanes
project entails the construction of an addi-
tional lane in each direction on the stretch
of Highway 101. The project will also
extend south of Whipple Avenue to San
Antonio Road in Santa Clara County, a seg-
ment of the project Leo Scott, a consultant
with the firm Gray-Bowen-Scott, said would
take shape in February when construction
begins.
Though work on the northern segment is
not expected to start until the end of 2019,
Scott said construction will include con-
necting existing auxiliary lanes to create a
new lane while converting the far left lane
in each direction into a managed lane with
signs and lighting.
Though planners of the multi-agency
project initially planned on relocating
sound barriers on both sides of Highway
101 in San Mateo, in recent months they
opted against relocating the wall lining the
southbound side of the freeway to avoid dis-
turbing a gas pipeline close to the existing
sound barrier, explained Scott. Because the
LOCAL
wall on the west side of Highway 101 no
longer needs to be moved, Scott said a pre-
viously-planned relocation of the pedestri-
an overcrossing at Monte Diablo Avenue
would also not be necessary.
Scott said the sound barriers east of
Highway 101 will be moved several feet,
requiring changing to the configuration of
North and South Bayshore boulevards
between Newbridge and East Poplar
avenues, including a narrowing of some
lanes to 10 feet or 11 feet wide.
Concerns have been lodged from residents
on both sides of the freeway about whether
the existing wall heights, which vary from
8 feet tall for a nearly 2-mile stretch of the
wall on the west side to up to 16 feet for a
portion of the eastern side, will adequately
mitigate freeway noise once the changes
take shape. Scott said community meetings
held Nov. 28 and Dec. 5 were aimed at
addressing questions residents had about a
noise study conducted earlier in the year and
concluding increasing the walls’ heights
would be not be feasible given the costs.
Because increasing the height of the walls
on the west side of the freeway to 16 feet,
the maximum height, would require replac-
ing the existing walls, the cost to replace
all of the short walls on the west side was
estimated at $51.3 million to $57.9 mil-
lion. The cost of increasing the heights of
the wall segments to be relocated on the
eastern side is estimated at $405,000, and
Scott noted the city will be responsible for
paying for increases in the height of the
walls.
Slated to cost $514 million, the Managed
Lanes proposal will be largely funded by a
combination of state and local funding.
With questions about whether the place-
ment of receptors used in the noise study
could accurately capture the effect of noise
emanating from the freeway, Central neigh-
borhood resident Laurie Watanuki voiced
concerns about leaving the height of the
walls on the western side as they are while
more lanes are added to Highway 101. She
asked whether studies of the project gauged
the impact of the project on the amount of
particulate matter residents are exposed to,
and also wondered whether the noise recep-
tors used in the study measured the impact
on residents in multi-story buildings.
Watanuki urged officials to consider work-
ing with Caltrans, which manages and
maintains Highway 101, to find the funding
needed to maximize the height of the sound
barriers on the west side of the freeway.
“We need more time, we need a plan to
fund the sound wall project from [East]
Fourth Avenue to Sunnybrae [Boulevard] at
maximum height,” she said, according to a
video of the meeting. “We now have 12
lanes with two express lanes versus the 10
current lanes that we have on 101. I feel
we’re going to have great impacts.”
Kevin Krewson, senior environmental
engineer with Caltrans, said the receptors
were placed in areas of frequent use and read-
ings were taken on days when the weather
was calm. He noted the noise measurements
are typically taken at the ground-floor
level, and said an analysis of the particulate
matter in the air were not included as part of
the study.
Deputy Mayor Maureen Freschet asked
why the wall on the western side only
THE DAILY JOURNAL
reached 8 feet in height, and Public Works
Director Brad Underwood said though the
construction of the wall preceded his time
with the city, he believed business owners
requested a lower wall height so their signs
could be seen by drivers traveling on
Highway 101.
In response to Councilman Rick
Bonilla’s suggestion planners consider the
increased heights of residential develop-
ments east of Highway 101, Underwood
also cautioned officials to consider alerting
business owners east of the freeway about
the possibility of a taller sound barrier to
gauge whether they have concerns about
such a change.
Councilmembers also considered whether
the relocated walls on the east side of
Highway 101 will match the walls on the
west side, and also whether to include
$8,000 medallions on the new wall to make
them more aesthetically pleasing. Mayor
Diane Papan expressed interest in seeing
how vegetation could be used to soften the
look of the sound barriers.
Underwood noted the San Mateo County
Transportation Authority is a partner in the
project and suggested officials consider ask-
ing the agency to help fund an increase of
the sound barriers. City Manager Drew
Corbett expected the city could come up
with $400,000 to $500,000 to fund taller
walls, and Councilman Eric Rodriguez
expressed interest in having the
Transportation Authority fund the change.
“I would be in favor of looking to see if
the [Transportation Authority] would fund
it,” he said. “I’m a little bit more hesitant if
the city was going to fund it.”

Chinese chicken salad offers
an enticing variety of tastes
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
With its juicy oranges, tender chick-
en and a crunchy topping, Chinese
chicken salad offers an enticing vari-
ety of tastes and textures. But many
versions seem to have lost their way,
weighted down with gloppy sauces,
lackluster chicken, sugary canned
orange segments and watery greens.
We saw the potential to recast this
salad in a healthier role by incorporat-
ing wholesome ingredients. To start,
we traded canned oranges for fresh
oranges rich in vitamin C and fiber. We
cut out segments to top our salad and
used the remaining juice as the basis
for a bright vinaigrette, which we
enlivened with 3 tablespoons of fresh
ginger, a pop of Asian chile-garlic
sauce, and just a touch of honey for
sweetness.
We used some of this flavorful liquid
to simmer our chicken breasts, then we
shredded the meat and returned it to the
pan to soak up the rich, bright flavors.
For the salad’s base, we replaced the
usual lettuce with nutrient-packed napa
cabbage, red bell peppers, cilantro and
scallions. For crunch, we passed on
sodium-laden fried chow mein noodles
and added a much healthier handful of
unsalted, dry-roasted peanuts. You can
substitute one clove of minced garlic

and 1/4 teaspoon of cayenne pepper
for the Asian chili-garlic sauce.

overnight,” said Braugher, whose steady
gaze and thoughtful manner indicate not
much else eludes him — unless by choice.
That includes the Hollywood glad-hand-
ing that can be critical to building a career.
Instead, Braugher has given priority to his
East Coast-based family, including his wife,
actress and singer Ami Brabson, and their
three sons.
“I would be neglecting something impor-
tant for something not so important,” he
said during a taping break. “So there’s a lot
of parties I’ve missed. But that’s OK.”
He’s succeeded without the networking
and although he started at a time when
parts for African-American actors were, as
he put it, “few and far between. Period. ”

twist comedy of “Brooklyn Nine-Nine. ”
Besides his 10 Emmy nominations
(including three for “Brooklyn Nine-Nine”)
and a second Emmy for “Thief” in 2006,
Braugher earned Obie Awards for his New
York City stage work in “Henry V” and
“Whipping Man.”
When he thought the sitcom was over,
Braugher looked to the stage for a different
challenge. He’s producing as well appearing
in a new play, “Tell Them I’m Still Young”
by Julia Doolittle, taking advantage of a
taping hiatus for “Brooklyn Nine-Nine” to
balance the dual commitments.
“I’ve been an actor my entire life, and so
I’ve been one cog in a giant machine,” he
said. “But now I think I want to really
explore learning more about the larger
process, rather than my one part about it.”
The work, about a couple whose marriage
under siege from heartbreak, makes its debut
with a Jan. 24-Feb. 3 run at the performing
arts center in South Orange, New Jersey.
Braugher stars opposite Broadway actress
Michele Pawk (“Hairspray, ” ‘’Mamma
Mia”).
“People under extraordinary stress per-
form in extraordinary ways,” he said. “This
couple has lost their daughter, so in the
midst of this tragedy they’re looking to
basswood and poplar, the artist explores
two complementary bodies of work, which
he characterizes as “two means to an end.”
Hersh’s “Skin Deep (acrylic on birch and
basswood), developed from his inquiry into
the nature of painting itself. Hersh said:
“Specifically, I am questioning the notion
that paintings exist as pictures of some-
thing — illusions — while sculptures exist
on their own, as objects. Because I love
making things as well as painting, I want-
ed to deconstruct painting and push this
regain and hold onto what they have.”
The New Jersey production is a spring-
board “to see how much interest I could gen-
erate” for a New York City staging, he said.
While he’s known for drama, Braugher
said he adapted happily to the change-up of
“Brooklyn Nine-Nine” when the sitcom
that revels in physical schtick started in
2013.
After doing much research on “horrific
crimes,” including for his “Law & Order:
Special Victims Unit” role as attorney
Bayard Ellis, “there comes a time in which
you want to do something different, some-
thing lighter,” Braugher said.
“Brooklyn Nine-Nine” gave him the
opportunity to learn from Andy Samberg
and the show’s other comedic actors as he
shaped his performance as Capt. Ray Holt,
who’s contented in his home life with hus-
band Kevin (Marc Evan Jackson) but seek-
ing to advance in the police ranks.
“I just felt as though it was an opportu-
nity to do something strikingly different
from the rest of my career, ” Braugher said.
“I like it because it just simply opens up
my mind and forces me to think in a dif-
ferent way. So I think I’ve become much
more sort of supple as an actor, and more
open to the incredible number of possi-
work closer to ‘objecthood.’ The basswood
wall structures of ‘Skin Deep’ exert them-
selves as objects, encapsulating as well as
supporting the paintings. ” Expanded

bilities of how to play a scene. ”
Dan Goor, who created the comedy with
Michael Schur, is unsparing in his praise of
Braugher.
He is “a genius whose gravitas and
warmth as an actor anchor the entire show,”
Goor said.
Since Braugher has made it clear there’s
more to life than work, he’s kept to his
schedule of taping the sitcom in Los
Angeles and heading home each weekend.
His youngest son is in boarding school, the
other two in college, including the oldest at
Braugher’s alma mater, the Juilliard School.
“They’re pursuing their lives. They’re
well-adjusted,” he said. “I’ve accomplished
one of my great goals, which was to see my
young men become honorable men.”
He said he fills his off hours with cook-
ing, hanging out with his wife and helping
her start an arts-related business by serving
as her “gofer, her all-around factotum. And
that’s a good thing to do.”
There’s also the tantalizing thought of
what’s ahead.
“I want to learn more and I want to do
more,” Braugher said.” I mean, I may be 56
years old, but I feel like there’s a wellspring
of new ideas, new energy flowing in me.”

BUDGET
Continued from page 1
lion predicted by the non-partisan leg-
islative analyst’s office.
Even as Newsom spoke, though, the
state controller delivered a reality
check: Revenue in December was
abysmal, nearly $5 billion below
assumptions.
Newsom’s proposed $144 billion
general fund budget serves as his open-
ing pitch in negotiations with state
lawmakers who by law must approve a
spending plan by June 15.
Newsom’s plan would raise spending
4 percent for the year beginning July 1
while devoting $13.6 billion to build
the state’s reserves, pay down debt and
take a bite out of the growing liability
for retiree pensions and health cover-
age.
“The message we are advancing here
is discipline, building a strong founda-
tion on which everything else can be
built,” Newsom said.
He announced big new investments
for schools, colleges, housing, health
care and welfare. He also hinted at big
proposals to come, from ending the
juvenile justice system “as we know it”
to requiring that “corporate California
steps up and helps us on the housing
front.” He also teased a restructuring of
the state’s high-speed rail project.
Democrats and a wide range of liberal
interest groups praised the ambitious
proposals in Newsom’s first budget.
Sen. Hannah-Beth Jackson, a
Democrat from Santa Barbara, called it a
“visionary yet prudent approach to
addressing some of the major chal-
lenges facing California working fami-
lies and our communities.”
Even Republicans found things to
like, including rainy-day savings and
wildfire prevention money. But many
noted that spending is still growing and
worry that Newsom isn’t doing enough
to prepare for an inevitable recession.
“We must remember that creating new
programs that would only have to be cut
in a recession would be foolish,” said
Assemblyman Jay Olbernolte, the top
Republican on the budget committee.
State Controller Betty Yee said
December’s disappointing revenue fig-
ure may be attributed to delayed end-of-
year tax filings due to changes in feder-
al policies, and some of the shortfall
may be made up in January. She said
California collected less than half its
projected sales tax revenue last month.
Newsom said the December figures
came in too late for him to update his
projections, noting he’ll provide a
revised revenue estimate and spending
proposal in May.
Newsom, who took office Monday,
began his remarks by noting he’d be
longer-winded than his predecessor,
Jerry Brown, who preferred to touch on
WILDFIRES
A look at what’s in Newsom’s plan
The budget assumes that California will have to pay
nearly $1 billion for last year’s wildfires that devastated
the Sierra Nevada foothills town of Paradise, among
other communities. The $923 million is 25 percent of
the overall projected cost, with the federal government
covering the rest.
It includes $31 million to make up for wildfire-related
property tax losses in Butte, Lake, Los Angeles, Orange,
Riverside, Shasta and Siskiyou counties. Another $19
million aids schools that lost revenue because of
wildfires. Newsom also proposes to waive the local
share of debris removal costs, saving counties $155
million on what is projected to be a $2.5 billion cleanup.
He’s proposing $60 million this year and next to improve
emergency communications, and seeking a new fee
on consumers to generate $170 million annually.
Another $16 million would finish the California
Earthquake Early Warning System.
His budget includes more than $400 million to reduce
fire-prone fuels and improve the state’s firefighting
ability. About half the money goes to forest
management efforts, which have frequently been
criticized by President Donald Trump. Nearly $8 million
would go to create five California Conservation Corps
firefighting crews and four Forestry Corps crews.
HOUSING
Newsom wants $1.75 billion to combat the state’s
housing crisis and $500 million toward homelessness
programs.
His plan would expand state tax credits to encourage
more low- and moderate-income housing; build
housing on surplus state property; and ease
environmental protection laws to help encourage more
housing. He proposes withholding money if local
communities don’t meet their housing goals or stand
up homeless shelters.
Sen. Scott Wiener of San Francisco, the Democratic
chairman of the Senate Housing Committee, called it a
bold proposal to help overcome the state’s need for
3.5 million new homes.
But the California State Association of Counties objects
to Newsom’s proposal to tie transportation funding to
new housing units.The association’s Darby Kernan said
it is concerning that Newsom would withhold critical
transportation money when counties rely on private
developers to build units.
MARIJUANA
The budget recommends a sharp increase in spending
for cannabis programs. But it’s an open question
whether it will be enough to help steady California’s
shaky legal marketplace.
It recommends just over $200 million for marijuana-
related activities, more than a 50 percent boost from
the current year.The state broadly legalized marijuana
highlights and answer a few questions
during his twice-yearly budget presen-
tations.
Newsom delivered a 45-minute, pro-
gram-by-program outline of his budget
in an auditorium packed with reporters,
aides, elected officials and others before
taking questions for another 45 min-
utes as he paced the stage.
He emphasized the need to pay off
debts accumulated over the years. He
also wants to make a $3 billion, one-
time payment to California’s teacher
pension fund on behalf of schools to
help districts that are seeing more of
their budgets eaten up by pension obli-
gations.
That was on top of $1.8 billion he
wants to spend paying down the state’s
share of teacher pensions, and $3 bil-
lion to pay down liabilities for state
workers.
The billions of dollars for pensions
would reduce future costs since the
money would be invested and grow over
time, Newsom said. But it would make
only a dent in the $257 billion unfund-
ed liability for retiree pensions and
health benefits.
Newsom has made early childhood
education a central focus of his new
administration. His budget proposes

on Jan. 1, 2018.
Income from the state’s excise tax on marijuana is
projected to be $355 million by the end of June, roughly
half of what was once expected. What that means is a
lot of consumers are still buying pot in illegal shops —
where there are no taxes — rather than in licensed
dispensaries.
The courts budget includes nearly $14 million for
resentencing of thousands of drug offenders whose
offenses are no longer crimes since California legalized
recreational pot.
CRIMINAL JUSTICE
Newsom says he plans to end California’s current
juvenile justice system “as we know it,” including by
shifting the state’s few remaining juvenile justice
facilities from the corrections department to the Health
and Human Services Agency.
About 650 youth are in state lockups, down from more
than 10,000 in the early 2000s. San Joaquin County
probation chief Stephanie James, president of the Chief
Probation Officers of California, said Newsom’s proposal
could imperil reforms made in juvenile justice over the
last decade. Lawmakers have rejected previous
attempts to send all juvenile offenders to county
lockups.
The budget projects $78.5 million in savings from a
2014 ballot initiative that reduced criminal penalties
and requires that the savings be spent on rehabilitation
programs. That’s up nearly $14 million over last year.
IMMIGRATION
Newsom proposed expanding Medi-Cal coverage to
immigrants who are young adults and lack legal status
in the United States at a cost of $260 million. In California,
people who can’t prove they’re legally in the country
age out of full-scope Medi-Cal coverage when they turn
19. Newsom’s proposal would raise the cutoff to age
26.
The budget also includes $25 million for an immigration
rapid-response program to help address the crisis on
the border following the arrival of Central American
migrants. It also includes $75 million for immigration-
related services including legal assistance for college
students.
EDUCATION
The budget includes a $3 billion one-time payment to
California’s teacher pension fund on behalf of schools
to help districts that are seeing more of their budgets
eaten up by pension obligations.
Newsom wants $1.4 billion for higher education,
including about $400 million for the community college
system aimed at waiving second-year tuition.
Newsom wants to invest $500 million in infrastructure
to provide more childcare and $750 million for
kindergarten programs. He also wants to boost a tax
credit for families by more than a half-billion dollars.
$750 million for kindergarten pro-
grams and $500 million for early child
care infrastructure. He also wants to
boost a tax credit for families by more
than half-a-billion dollars and expand
access to the credit to 400,000 more
low-income workers.
Newsom brands his education focus
as “cradle to career,” and his budget pro-
posed $1.4 billion in fresh spending
for higher education. About $400 mil-
lion would be for community colleges.
Newsom wants those schools to use the
money to make the second year of
school tuition free, although it already
is for many low-income students.
Housing, too, is a major focus in
Newsom’s budget. California is experi-
encing a major affordable housing cri-
sis, with prices and rents rapidly rising
while the number of available homes
remains far below the need.
Newsom’s pledging $1.75 billion
toward the crisis, saying he’s “not
playing small ball.” He wants to take a
carrot-and-stick approach to incen-
tivize communities to build more
homeless shelters and housing, and he
proposes threatening transportation
money if local governments don’t meet
their goals. That proposal may be con-
troversial in the Legislature.

Sealed proposals will be received by the Office of the City Clerk, City of Millbrae, located at 621
Magnolia Avenue, Millbrae, California 94030 until 2:00 P.M. on Tuesday, February 5, 2019 for
the project titled “MAGNOLIA AVENUE AND RICHMOND DRIVE BICYCLE AND PEDESTRIAN

The work to be performed under this contract consists of the following major items of work as list-
ed below:

cilities, sidewalk, curb and gutter, valley gutter, ADA curb ramps, and solar powered

All proposals must be made on the proposal form included with the Contract Documents for the
proposed work.
A certified check or corporate surety bond of not less than ten percent (10%) of the amount bid
for the total cost of the project must accompany each proposal.
A pre bid conference is scheduled on Tuesday, January 29, 2019 at 10:00 A.M. at the Public
Works Office at Millbrae City Hall located at 621 Magnolia Avenue.
Contract documents are available on the City's website at www.ci.millbrae.ca.us; click on the tab,
“Projects for Bid”. Bidder shall provide Bidder’s Proposal, Bid Security/Bond, Statement of Expe-
rience and Qualifications, and Non-Collusion Affidavit as identified in these Contract Documents.
Each bidder shall also submit with his/her bid, the names, addresses, portion of work, license
numbers and quotations of all subcontractors, if any, upon which the proposal is based as speci-
fied in Section G2.08 of the General Conditions.
Time of Completion shall be 100 working days after issuance of the Notice to Proceed. Liquidat-
ed damages for failure to complete the work within the specified time are specified in the Con-
tract Documents.
The State of California has adopted a schedule of the general prevailing rates of per diem wages
to be paid to the various craftsmen and laborers required to perform said work and improve-
ments, a copy of which may be obtained from the Department of Industrial Relations, Division of
Apprenticeship Standards, or can be download at their website at www.dir.ca.gov.
No bidder may withdraw his/her bid for a period of ninety (90) days after the date set for the
opening thereof. All bids shall remain valid for that period of time.
Bidders’ attention is directed to the Special Provisions of the Contract Documents which require
the Contractor, to whom the contract for the work is awarded, to file with the Contracts and Pro-
curement Department at the time of executing said contract, a Payment Bond and Performance
Bond, in the amount of 100% of the contract amount, meeting all requirements of said Contract
Documents and approved by the City Attorney.
The Millbrae City Council reserves the right to accept or reject any and all bids, alternate bids, or
unit prices and/or waive any irregularities in any bid received.
Pursuant to Public Contract Code section 22300, the Contractor may substitute certain securities
for any money withheld by the City as retention to ensure Contractor’s performance under the
contract. Such substitution of securities in lieu of retention shall be at the contractor’s request
and at contractor’s sole expense.
The Contractor and all subcontractors shall be licensed with the Department of Consumer Affairs
of the State of California in the class appropriate for the work contemplated. Failure of Contractor
or his/her subcontractors to possess such current license at the time of bidding may be deemed
sufficient cause for the rejection of the bid.
This project includes public works as defined by California Labor Code section 1720. The suc-
cessful Bidder shall be responsible for the payment of prevailing wage rates, the training of ap-
prentices and compliance with other related requirements.
No contractor or subcontractor may be listed on a bid proposal or awarded a contract for a public
works project unless registered with the Department of Industrial Relations (DIR) pursuant to La-
bor Code section 1725.5 at the time of bid. For federally funded projects, the contractor and sub-
contractor must be registered at the time of contract award. (See Labor Code section 1771.1(a).)
Each bidder must submit proof of contractor registration with DIR (e.g. a hard copy of the rele-
vant page of the DIR's database found at: https://efiling.dir.ca.gov/PWCR/Search). This contract
is subject to monitoring and enforcement by the DIR pursuant to Labor Code section 1771.4.
Bidders shall have fully inspected the project site in all particulars and become thoroughly famili-
ar with the terms and conditions of the Contract Documents and local conditions affecting the
performance and costs of the work prior to submitting their bid proposal.
By order of the Council of the City of Millbrae.

California Division of Safety of Dams found Ritchie. Capable of holding water that is Boulevard, said Deputy County Manager

DAM
Continued from page 1
Crystal Springs Reservoir meets the San
Mateo Creek.
At 626 feet long and 51.5 feet wide, the
bridge is the result of efforts to double the
width of the Lower Crystal Springs Dam
spillway to 200 feet and raise the parapet
wall on top of the dam by 9 feet. The bridge
was also reconstructed with increased bicy-
cle and pedestrian access and high-voltage
transmission lines previously supported by
towers placed on either side of the bridge
were relocated to another location under it.
The reopening of the scenic stretch of
Skyline Boulevard dovetails with the open-
ing of South Sawyer Camp Trail, which
extends more than a mile south of the bridge
and ends a quarter mile away from State
Route 92. With more than 300,000 annual
visitors to the Sawyer Camp and Crystal
Springs segments of the Crystal Springs
Regional Trail, the close of the yearslong
project opens recreational opportunities for
trail users and commuters and offers another
glimpse of the watershed, said Mario
Nastari, a San Mateo County park ranger.
“It’s been very much anticipated,” he said.
Plans to reinstate the road atop the dam,
which is owned and operated by the San
Francisco Public Utilities Commission,
began more than two decades ago when the
the spillway had to either be expanded so the
dam could be used at its full capacity or oper-
ate at a restricted level, said Steve Ritchie,
the SFPUC’s assistant general manager for
water.
Over the years, the project’s timeline has
been delayed as efforts took shape to protect
threatened species such as the California red-
legged frog and federal funding behind the
project was temporarily frozen.
Public Works Director Jim Porter said
before work on the bridge could start, coun-
ty planners coordinated with SFPUC offi-
cials working to widen the spillway, a $35
million project completed in 2012. After
bridge construction was completed in 2018,
officials also coordinated with Pacific Gas
and Electric to relocate high-voltage trans-
mission lines previously supported by tow-
ers placed on either side of the bridge to
another location under the bridge.
“The reason why it took so long is it was
really three projects,” he said.
Before they could open Skyline Boulevard
back up to the public, crews installed split-
rail fencing and striped the road to demarcate
bicycle and pedestrian lanes. They also
installed fencing to establish a perimeter
around the dam structure and the reservoir
storing drinking water for millions of Bay
Area residents.
The Crystal Springs Reservoir is a critical
part of the SFPUC’s infrastructure, which
provides drinking water for some 2.7 mil-
lion residents in four Bay Area counties, said
collected locally, the reservoir can also
receive water from the Hetch Hetchy
Regional Water System and a water system
in Alameda County, he said. Though he
acknowledged the importance of public
access to the watershed, Ritchie said fencing
is aimed at ensuring the water source is pro-
tected.
“It’s not just capturing local water, but it’s
a place where we can move supplies around,
which is great flexible tool,” he said. “We
need to make sure we allow the access but
protect the resource.”
Ritchie said the San Andreas Fault is some
1,000 feet away from the bridge and runs
underneath the reservoir, which is why the
bridge is built to the maximum credible
earthquake standards and is expected to with-
stand a 1-foot displacement should an earth-
quake occur, said Porter. Originally built in
1888 by the Spring Valley Water Company,
the Crystal Springs dam has survived the
1906 and 1989 earthquakes without signifi-
cant damage, noted Porter.
Together with the South Sawyer Creek
Trail, the project affords bicyclists, pedes-
trians and motorists a much safer option
when connecting to county trails along the
watershed, routes they previously navigated
for stretches on the shoulder of Skyline
Peggy Jensen, who is currently serving as
the county’s interim parks director.
“This is an alternative to a bike lane that
is about 6 inches wide,” she said. “The
improvement in safety is just incredible.”
Officials looked forward to a ribbon cut-
ting ceremony to bring trail users and bicy-
cle groups who have followed the project
together with the many officials and staff
members who worked on the project over the
years, including state Sen. Jerry Hill, D-San
Mateo, who served as a San Mateo County
supervisor when the project first got off the
ground.
“This is not just a celebration of the com-
pletion of an important project, it’s a new
beginning for one of our county’s most
extraordinary recreational and environmen-
tal resources,” he said in a statement.
A ceremony to open the road will be held 2
p.m. Jan. 11 at the north end of the bridge
near the intersection of Crystal Springs
Road and Skyline Boulevard. Pedestrians
and bicyclists will have a chance to experi-
ence the new bridge before it is open to car
traffic. Due to limited parking at the bridge,
shuttle service will be available for the Jan.
11 event with pick-up beginning 1 p.m.
from the Youth Services Center parking lot,
222 Paul Scannell Drive in San Mateo.

LAMBERT
Continued from page 1
County District Attorney’s Office.
Though Susan Lambert, 58, was set to be
sentenced for her felony convictions Jan.
10, Judge Elizabeth Lee indicated she would
impose a prison sentence of three years,
four months in state prison and order resti-
tution of $2.84 million to the victims Feb.
13 after Lambert’s defense attorney George
Eshoo allegedly asked for a delay in his
client’s surrender date so she could get her
affairs in order, according to prosecutors.
Lambert has been out of custody on her
own supervised recognizance since late
2016, shortly after she pleaded no contest
to felony embezzlement and forgery convic-
tions and admitted she stole more than
$100, 000. Her co-conspirator Michael
Medeiros, 62, was sentenced to seven years
state prison Sept. 14 after a jury found him
guilty of felony embezzlement and felony
grand theft following a 12-day jury trial end-
ing May 11, according to prosecutors.
It’s been more than five years since resi-
dents of the condominium homeowners’
embezzlement scheme. Lambert had man-
aged the association, which had a nearly $5
million annual budget, for more than a
decade. A Woodlake resident previously said
homeowners caught wind of the theft when a
board member saw suspicious activity,
including charges at various casinos, on a
bank statement from a debit card Lambert
had been issued.
After Lambert was fired, the association
uncovered a stack of nearly 150 false
invoices for construction work that was
never completed. Police and investigators
determined she had been conspiring to
defraud the homeowners between Feb. 8,
2007, and September 2013, according to
prosecutors.
Prosecutors said Lambert, who reportedly
had a gambling problem, would make false
invoices and write checks to Medeiros’ com-
pany Professional Painting, Inc. He would
then allegedly cash the checks and the two
would split the profits.
Because Lambert agreed to testify in
Medeiros’ trial, a judge chose to delay
Lambert’s sentencing until Medeiros’ trial
was adjudicated, according to prosecutors.
Lambert’s defense attorney George Eshoo
could not be reached for comment.
