More students projected for cramped district

By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Already cramped for space and

searching for resolutions to growing enrollment issues, the San
Mateo-Foster City Elementary
School District should not expect
to see more available classrooms
in coming years, according to a
recent report.

According to a report by demographer Tom Williams, presented at

the district Board of Trustees meeting Thursday night, the district
student population is expected to
grow by 254 students by the coming fall. Furthermore, the district
is projected to grow cumulatively
by 481 students by 2017 and 617
students in 2019.
The growth report comes as dis-

trict leadership parses strategies

to address the strain on facilities
that past enrollment growth has
caused. Recently, the Next Steps
Advisory Committee formed to
discuss strategies to resolve problems associated with the influx of
students, including whether to recommend trustees approve putting
a bond measure for classroom construction on the fall ballot.

Middle schools should feel the

brunt of the blow from enrollment
growth, according to the report.
The districts three main comprehensive middle schools, Abbot,
Borel and Bowditch, may need to
accommodate a majority of the
additional 400 students expected
to graduate onto middle school
campuses from 2017 through
2019, according to the report.

Youll find a way to deal with

this, but it will take some work,
said Williams.
Recently parents circulated an
online petition demanding that
middle school gymnasiums across
the district be renovated for voters
to support any potential bond
measure. Voters shot down a bond

Record-setting returns in sales and hotel taxes helped to

drive the San Bruno general fund up $1.3 million from the
year prior, according to a city report.
As the local economy continues to rebound, sales tax revenue exceeded $7.6 million, eclipsing the previous all-time
high set last year by $300,000, according to a budget report
recently approved by the council.
Sales tax is the largest income source for the city, along
with money from property tax, which brought in $7.3 million last year, according to the report. The citys general
fund grew to $10.9 million, up from $9.6 at the end of last

Carlmont principal to step down

Principal Lisa Gleaton plans to
leave her post at the end of the

are too substantial to keep up with

Being appointed to principal

later was one of the worst, she
said. We are currently preparing
for his fourth cancer surgery in 18
months. I have given it my best
college try, but I simply can no

County set to give $4.5M for housing

By Bill Silverfarb

Four affordable housing projects will get a $4.5 million boost

if the San Mateo County Board of
Supervisors approves the expenditure at its Tuesday meeting.
The board will consider funding
three affordable rental housing
developments and one affordable
homeownership development for
a total of about 170 new units to
be constructed in a partnership
with nonprofit builders.
The county received funding
requests for $8.5 million in affordable housing projects. It rejected,

however, a senior apartment

complex proposed to be
built in Menlo
Park by MidPen
H o u s i n g
because it is too
large to comDon Horsley pete successfully for a March
deadline for a round of tax credits,
according to a report by county
Department of Housing Executive
Director William Lowell.
The county provides the seed
money for the projects to get off
the ground so the nonprofits can

seek other funding, Supervisor

Don Horsley said.
Housing needs to be built for
low-wage earners that currently
have to commute long distances to
work in the county, Horsley said.
The funding should also help
relieve pressure on the countys
motel-voucher program, he said.
Many of the units will also be
available for persons with disabilities who live on a fixed income,
Horsley said.
The county received about $13.5
million to fund the construction of
affordable housing of the state dissolved redevelopment agencies.
That money will eventually lead to

Whooping-cough outbreak
raises vaccine concerns
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ELK GROVE, Calif. A California city

with a large number of whooping cough
cases despite a high immunization rate is
revealing the limitations of the current vaccine used to protect against the disease, a
newspaper reported.
Elk Grove had a whooping-cough infection rate three to five times higher than
other places in Sacramento County last year
even though only 80 of the suburbs 4,500
kindergartners opted out of vaccinations,
according to the Sacramento Bee
(http://bit.ly/1A6Rcvt ).
Children who were vaccinated did not
receive the protection desired, said Kate
McAuley, program coordinator of communicable disease and immunization at the
Sacramento
County
Public Health
Department.
Experts say the whooping cough vaccine
introduced in the late 1990s provides less
protection each year after it is administered,
often leaving children vulnerable before
they get their booster shot, the Bee reported. The new vaccine uses only pieces of the
bacteria that cause whooping cough, or pertussis, as opposed to whole, dead bacteria.

The change was made after some children

who took the earlier vaccine experienced
reactions including a high fever and
seizures.
But the new vaccine loses its effectiveness after its first year, according to experts
and a recent study in the Journal of the
American Medical Association.
Concerns about the vaccine come as a
record-high 11,000 Californians caught
whooping cough in 2014 and a measles outbreak sweeps the state. Parents of unvaccinated children have been blamed for the
measles outbreak, but experts say pertussis
is different.
Its not correct to only pin (the pertussis
outbreak) on the people who are unvaccinated, Mark Sawyer, a professor of pediatrics at the University of California, San
Diego, and a member of the U.S. Centers for
Disease Control and Preventions immunization practices committee, told the Bee.
The effectiveness of the vaccine is a huge
part of this. People who are immunized do
still get pertussis.
Still, Sawyer and other experts said parents should vaccinate their children against
whooping cough because the vaccine
reduces the chances of infection.

With board approval, the $4.5

Worst of storm over

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO Northern California

was hit by a second wet and windy storm on
Sunday, though it appeared to do far less
damage than a similar system two days earlier.
The worst of the wind and rain was over
for the San Francisco Bay Area by the early
afternoon, though scattered showers were
expected through Monday morning, said
National Weather Service forecaster Austin
Cross.
Wind gusts of over 45 mph were reported
earlier in the day, with steady precipitation
that dropped an additional 2 inches of rain
in coastal areas.
This storm has less rain and is also mov-

ing through a bit quicker than we saw on

Friday, Cross said. Thats helping it from
getting too severe.
Fridays storm knocked out power to
more than 90,000 people in the Bay Area.
Pacific Gas & Electric Co. crews were not
seeing anything similar by Sunday afternoon, PG&E spokesman Joe Molica said.
PG&E had brought in crews from Oregon,
Washington and Arizona to prepare for the
storm.
At San Francisco International Airport,
officials said more than 80 flights were canceled as of the afternoon. The Federal
Aviation Administration was reporting
arrival delays of as much as 2 1/2 hours.
Fridays storm led to the cancellation of
175 flights at the airport.

Brown seeks money for fixing roads

By Fenit Nirappil
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SACRAMENTO California
lawmakers are looking at new
ways to pay for crumbling roads,
bridges and highways as the traditional repair fund from gasoline
taxes dries up.
Revenue from gasoline taxes
have been sliding as more fuelefficient and electric cars hit aging
roads. Thats contributing to an
annual $5.9 billion backlog in
state highway repairs.
Gov. Jerry Browns administration is studying whether to tax

drivers
by
miles traveled
instead of gas
g u z z l e d .
Changing the
system could
take more than
five years, and
lawmakers are
for
Jerry Brown calling
more money to
repave roads and fill potholes in
the meantime.
They are considering a dollar-aweek fee on most drivers, a temporary gas tax hike, re-directing
money used to pay off state debt

back to road projects and converting carpool lanes into paid toll
ways.
Lawmakers in Congress and
statehouses across the nation are
grappling with transportation
funding shortfalls. In California,
Browns vision for an eco-friendly
fleet using half as much gasoline
by 2030 is clashing with how the
state pays for infrastructure.
We have not had in the last 25
years a revenue source in transportation that is stable, ongoing
and commensurate with our
needs, said Brian Kelly, Browns
top transportation aide. We have

fallen further and further behind.

Road maintenance is primarily
funded by an 18-cent a gallon
gasoline tax, which hasnt
increased since 1994. Collections
fell from $2.87 billion in 2003 to
$2.62 billion in 2013. Drivers
pay even more in taxes at the
pump for local, federal and new
state projects.
State officials say they need
more money each year because of
the rising costs of fixing roads.
About 16 percent of the highways
were in poor condition in 2013,
according to the California
Department of Transportation.

We are looking at getting revenue in place now to stem the

blood flow because our roads are
falling apart before our eyes, said
Jim Earp, director of the
California Alliance for Jobs,
which represents construction
companies and trade unions.
Hiking taxes and fees requires
two-thirds support from the
Legislature,
including
Republicans. Brown in his inaugural address called on both parties to come together on transportation funding, as they did
when they developed a $7.5 billion water plan last year.

prosecutors, if they were to consider charges against the drivers
involved.
However, Brooks said it is difficult to determine if a driver was
texting at the exact time of a collision. Investigators will look at

signs of driver behavior such as

multiple texts that span a period
of time leading up to, or including, the crash, Brooks said.
The sheriffs department has
custody of all the vehicles and will
be inspecting them to ensure
theyre mechanically sound or
whether a defect prevented somebody from stopping in time.
Investigators are trying to determine who or what triggered the
crash on Pacific Coast Highway.
One woman died in the crash, and
seven others were injured.
The celebrity gossip website
TMZ first reported that the department could issue a search warrant

to determine if Jenner was texting

at the time of the accident.
The moment of impact was captured by celebrity photographers
who quickly posted the images on
the Internet. Los Angeles County
Sheriffs officials said there was
no indication Jenner was being
chased by paparazzi at the time of
the crash.
Being a celebrity, he is often
followed by paparazzi. He was
aware of that, and it doesnt
appear he took any evasive
action to avoid the paparazzi,
Brooks said.
Authorities said Jenner cooperated with investigators, passed a

field sobriety test and voluntarily

submitted a blood sample to determine whether he was intoxicated,
Brooks said.
He did not appear intoxicated
or under the influence of anything
at the time, the sergeant said.
Jenners publicist, Alan Nierob,
said Jenner wasnt hurt, but he
offered no additional details.
Jenner was going north when
his black Cadillac Escalade rearended a Lexus sedan that had just
struck the back of a black Toyota
Prius, Brooks said. The Lexus
veered into oncoming traffic and
collided head-on with a black
Hummer.

What happens if Homeland Security shuts down?

By Erica Werner and
Alicia A. Caldwell
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Spending for

the Department of Homeland
Security hangs in the balance as
Congress fights over immigration
matters in the agencys annual
funding bill. Without action by
Feb. 27, the departments budget
will shut off.
To hear Democrats and many
Republicans tell it, the result
would be unacceptable risks to
U.S. security at a time of grave
threats worldwide. In reality,
though, most people will see little
change if the departments money
flow is halted, and some of the
warnings of doom are as exaggerated as they are striking.
There are ghoulish, grim predators out there who would love to
kill us or do us harm, said Sen.
Barbara Mikulski of Maryland,
top Democrat on the Senate

Appropriations Committee. We
should not be dillydallying and
playing parliamentary pingpong
with national security.
In the view of some House conservatives, though, shutting off
the agencys $40 billion budget
for a time is obviously not the
end of the world, as Rep. Matt
Salmon, R-Ariz., put it, because
many agency employees would
stay at work through a shutdown.
Whos right, and what would the
impact be if Congress were to let
money for the department lapse?

Limited impact
Salmon and a few other conservatives are the only ones saying it
publicly so far, but the reality is
that a department shutdown would
have a very limited impact on
national security.
Thats because most department
employees fall into exempted categories of workers who stay on
the job in a shutdown because they

perform work considered necessary to protect human life and

property. Even in a shutdown,
most workers across agencies,
including the Secret Service,
Transportation
Security
Administration,
Federal
Emergency Management Agency
and
Customs
and
Border
Protection, would continue to
report to work.
Airport security checkpoints
would remain staffed, the Secret
Service would continue to protect
the president and other dignitaries, the Coast Guard would stay
on patrol, immigration agents
would still be on the job.
Indeed, of the agencys approximately 230,000 employees, some
200, 000 of them would keep
working even if Congress fails to
fund their agency. Its a reality
that was on display during the 16day government-wide shutdown in
the fall of 2013, when national
parks and monuments closed but

Ire over Netanyahus speech,

but Dems hope to limit fallout
By Charles Babington
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON The Israeli prime ministers upcoming speech to Congress without President Barack Obamas blessing has
angered Democratic lawmakers, but they see
little remedy except to hope for minimal
damage to their party and U.S.-Israel relations.
Democrats simmered in frustration as
they faced a thankless choice between
defending their president and defending a
country they consider a vital ally.
Some gleeful Republicans predicted
Democrats complaints about Benjamin
Netanyahus March 3 speech will drive
Jewish voters to the GOP.
Rep. Joe Wilson, R-S.C., a member of the
House Armed Services Committee, said
Democrats are making a catastrophic mistake by protesting Netanyahus plans.
Traditionally, supporters of Israel have
been really evenhanded in supporting candidates of both parties, Wilson said, but
now Democrats are slapping the friends of
Israel in the face.

Democrats reject such

talk, saying Republicans
repeatedly have overstated their appeal to Jewish
voters.
Obama got 78 percent
of the Jewish vote in
2008, and 69 percent in
2012, according to exit
polls. Congressional
Benjamin
Democrats won twoNetanyahu
thirds of Jewish votes in
last falls elections, an especially bad year
for their party.
Republicans want to portray Democrats
as less supportive of Israel, but no matter
how much they try, they cant move Jewish
voters on this issue, said Jeremy Ben-Ami,
president of the liberal pro-Israel group J
Street.
Ho us e Demo crat s s ay Sp eak er J o h n
Boehner, R-Ohio, showed disrespect to
t h e p res i den t an d p erh ap s cy n i cal
p o l i t i cal g o al s wh en h e i n v i t ed
Netanyahu. Presidents cant veto congressional speakers, but they usually are
consulted.

essential government functions

kept running, albeit sometimes
on reduced staff. So what of the
sometimes overheated rhetoric,
often from Democrats trying to
prove a political point?

Ports
If this goes to shutdown,
Mikulski said, this could close
down ports up and down the East
Coast, because if you dont have a
Coast Guard, you dont have the
ports. You dont have the ports,
you dont have an economy.
But if the department loses its
money, the Coast Guard will stay
in operation and so will the ports.
There would be one big change,
though. Most workers would not get
paid until the shutdown ends, a circumstance guaranteed to put pressure
on members of Congress hearing
from constituents angry about
going without their paychecks.
Making employees come to
work without pay is a real chal-

lenge for them, Homeland

Security Secretary Jeh Johnson
said Sunday on CNNs State of
the Union.
Workers at agencies funded by
fees, instead of by congressional
appropriations, would continue
their functions while still drawing
a paycheck. It so happens that
applies to the very employees
charged with putting in place the
immigration programs at the heart
of the political dispute.
Fees pay the salaries of the U.S.
Citizenship and Immigration
Services workers who would
process applications from immigrants eligible to work lawfully in
the country under President Barack
Obamas immigration policies.
Even though Republicans are so
determined to shut down Obamas
program that some are willing to
risk Homeland Security money to
do it, it would stay up and running
with little impact in the event of a
shutdown.

Talks center on peace in Ukraine

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BERLIN As Russian-backed
separatists gain ground in eastern
Ukraine, efforts to broker peace
appeared to gain momentum
Sunday, with leaders of Germany,
France, Russia and Ukraine
announcing plans for four-way
talks this week.
The
proposed
meeting
Wednesday in the Belarusian capital of Minsk emerged from a
phone call between German
Chancellor Angela Merkel, French
President Francois Hollande,
Russian President Vladimir Putin
and Ukrainian President Petro
Poroshenko.
The aim is to revive the muchviolated peace plan both sides
agreed to in Minsk last
September, and end a war that has

now
killed
more
than
5, 300 people
according to
United Nations
estimates.
Although the
United States
wont be at the
Vladimir Putin n e g o t i a t i n g
table, a growing clamor in Washington to arm
Ukraine will be on the minds of
those present in Minsk. U.S. officials have said President Barack
Obama is rethinking his previous
opposition to sending weapons to
Ukraine, despite fears of triggering a proxy war between
Washington and Moscow.
While senior diplomats from the
four countries meet in Berlin to
prepare for the summit, Merkel is

expected to brief U.S. officials in

Washington on Monday during a
previously scheduled trip.
Its a fortuitous coincidence
that Merkel is going to
Washington and whatever she
does, Obama will be informed,
said Volker Perthes, director of the
German Institute for International
and Security Affairs. The threat of
U.S. arms shipments wont harm
the talks, he added, although if
the diplomatic efforts fail then the
option to ship arms becomes more
likely.
U. S. Secretary of State John
Kerry was keen Sunday to dispel
the notion of a trans-Atlantic rift,
saying U. S. and its European
allies are united in our diplomacy on Ukraine. Speaking at an
international security conference
in Munich, he said the U.S. sup-

ports the efforts by France and

Germany.
There is no division, there is
no split, Kerry said. I keep hearing people trying to create one.
We are united, we are working
closely together.
German
Foreign
Minister
Frank-Walter Steinmeier, speaking alongside Kerry, said he considers delivering weapons not
just highly risky but counterproductive.
But Republican Sen. John
McCain, the chairman of the
Senate
Armed
Services
Committee, insisted in Munich
that we must provide defensive
arms to Ukraine.
If we help Ukrainians increase
the military cost to the Russian
forces that have invaded their
country, how long can Putin sus-

tain a war that he tells his people

is not happening?
Aside from the military cost,
Russia has also been struggling
with the economic impact of western sanctions and low global oil
prices.
While Ukraines Poroshenko
raised the possibility that
Wednesdays summit could provide a breakthrough after months
of futile diplomacy, Putin insisted
Sunday that the four-way meeting
would only happen if they agree
on key points beforehand.
We will be aiming for
Wednesday, if by that time we are
able to agree on a number of the
positions that we recently have
been discussing intensely, he
told journalists in Sochi during a
meeting with the president of
Belarus.

UN envoy says Yemen national Jordan airstrikes target IS

talks will resume amid crisis
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SANAA, Yemen Yemen will

resume national talks over its
future, the U.N. envoy to the country said Sunday, just days after
Shiite rebels dissolved parliament
and formally took power.
Those talks Monday will include
Abdel-Malek al-Houthi, whose
Houthi rebels stormed into the
capital, Sanaa, and elsewhere in
September before besieging the
president and seizing total control
of the Arab worlds poorest country, envoy Jamal Benomar said.

I am happy to announce to you

that all political parties have
agreed to return to the table of the
dialogue, Benomar told journalists at a Sanaa hotel. The United
Nations is committed to take
Yemen out of this crisis.
The Houthis are under mounting
domestic and international pressure. Late Saturday, the party of
former president Ali Abdullah
Saleh the Houthis main ally
added its voice to the growing
opposition to the takeover and
called for a return to the dialogue
moderated by Benomar.

AMMAN, Jordan Jordan has

launched 56 airstrikes against
Islamic State group weapons
depots, training centers and military barracks since militants
released a video of them burning a
Jordanian pilot to death, Jordans
air force chief said Sunday.
Meanwhile, a squadron of F-16
fighter jets from the United Arab
Emirates arrived in Jordan. The
UAE has said it is sending the
warplane to support the kingdom, and a Jordanian government
official has said they will participate in airstrikes on Islamic State

group targets.
Jordanian officials vowed to
harshly retaliate for the slaying of
the pilot, Lt. Muath al-Kaseasbeh,
who was set ablaze while trapped
in a cage.
Since Thursday, the Jordanian
air force has attacked and
destroyed 56 Islamic State targets,
the air force chief, Gen. Mansour
al-Jabour, told reporters. This
includes 19 targets on the first
day, 18 on the second and 19 on
the third, he said.
We achieved what we were
looking for: revenge for Muath,
the general said. And this is not
the end. This is the beginning.

In recent days, Jordanian officials have delivered tough warnings to Islamic State, saying the
retaliation campaign would not
stop until the group has been
destroyed.
The United States and several
Arab allies, including Jordan,
have been striking the Islamic
State group in Syria since Sept.
23, while warplanes from the U.S.
and other countries have been
waging an air campaign against
the extremists in Iraq for even
longer. The campaign aims to
push back the jihadi organization
after it took large parts of Iraq and
Syria and declared a caliphate.

Letters to the editor

Vaccinations
Editor,
U.S. Sen. Rand Paul was recently
vaccinated showing there is no danger with taking vaccinations.
However, Mr. Paul is a grown man
with built up immunities; he is not a
baby or small child developing his or
her own defense mechanisms as their
body grows and ages.
Of course, the pharma industry,
which pushes its poisons on the public, just note all the disclaimers on
their TV ads, will say its safe.
However, the United Nations recently
halted its measles vaccination program in Syria because the vaccines
were contaminated and had expired
resulting in over 50 deaths. This
brings to mind once again the children who were vaccinated in the
1990s only to succumb to ADHD,
autism and other neurological lifetime
medical disorders because the childhood vaccines were preserved with
mercury.
In 2009, one in 110 children were
diagnosed with autism. In California
alone from 1994 to 2009, there was a
260 percent increase in autism; and in
2009, 350,000 children aged 6 to 12
years old suffer from this medical disorder nationwide.
Why the sudden outbreak? Not to
be politically incorrect, even though
the ACLU and other human rights
organizations are opposed to quarantining newcomers for a short period
of time to our country, the newcomers
themselves might be immune to diseases and afictions our country has
rid itself of years ago, but it might be
time to again initiate screening and
quarantining of newcomers for the
safety of our citizenry, especially the
children and elderly.

of a signicant time. We are looking

at ways to improve the Ralston
Corridor, we are looking at comprehensive downtown improvements and
we are ofcially updating the general
plan. We are also evaluating changes
to zoning documents. None of this is
being done in secret as some would
have you believe. We live in a beautiful little town mostly nestled in the
hills here in the center of the Silicon
Valley boomtown. Given our location
and beautiful views, its no wonder
young successful happy families want
to move here when they can. I think
they are usually drawn like my family
was to the unique feeling we have
here.
Currently, when young families
move in to moderate homes and families start to grow, it can be extremely
challenging to get even the most
basic home upgrades approved. The
process currently can result in long
delays, frustrations and arbitrary
denials that can cost thousands of
dollars. Sometimes the delays are so
long people must move. I think its
time to evaluate some sensible
changes that can preserve the uniqueness of our town while providing predictability for those looking to grow
the size of a living room/ family
room or bedrooms to have enough
space as the family grows up. The
zoning process has just begun. The
powers of no are prevalent. The
process is open to everyone. Please

Practicality needed
Editor,
The Feb. 6 Daily Journal carries a
letter from Gita Dev of the Sierra
Club, Loma Prieta Chapter, regarding
the 599-unit Station Park Green
development.
The comment is that, The main
drawback of the project is that there
is too much parking.
This letter sadly is yet another pipe
dream from that body. Future residents
of the development may well use
Caltrain for commuting. However,
most residents will maintain their
autos for personal uses such as shopping, entertainment, recreation and
other normal social requirements.
We live in a sprawling suburban
area, not in a central city like San
Francisco or Boston.
In the suburban culture, we need
more than bicycles and rollerblades
to get to wherewe need to go, and
then return home again. To travel to
Pescadero or Princeton Harbor or
Pleasanton by public transit is not
practical in terms of time required and
signicant expense.

Stand up to Millbrae
Editor,
In response to Doug Radtkes letter
to the editor (Radtkes letter Not the
best decision for Millbae in the Jan.
30 edition of the Daily Journal).
Since when does the city of
Millbrae follow any type of protocol? I have written several letters to
the editor indicating that Millbrae
city ofcials dance to their own tune.
They decide who to get rid of
(FlightCar), who to patronize (Tai
Wu) and who to hire, regardless of
what is best for the city of Millbrae.
They hired a city manager and gave
her a bonus at the same time the city
of Millbrae was crying poor mouth
and asking the residents to put up
money for re services. None of this
could possibly be made up unless you
are a member of the Millbrae City
Council.
Please remember how you have
been stepped on when voting time
rolls around. Is this the way the city
of Millbrae is supposed to be run?
Not unless you allow it to be, by voting for the people who are abusing
you right now. People, speak up!
Stop being bullied by elected ofcials. They work for us, not themselves. Stop being lame ducks and
voice your opinions, wants and concerns or else be taken to the cleaners.

On Jan. 31, the eighth annual birthday gala of the Saint
Michael Trio lled the seats at the Fox Theatre in
Redwood City. Downtown was humming that night what
with the popular attraction at the Fox, the nearby movie
theater and the many restaurants on Broadway. Signs
advertising valet parking for $5 were all over while parking was difcult to nd.
The audience at the Fox was lled with friends, family
and fans of the extraordinary trio which is made up of an
exceptionally talented threesome of classically trained
musicians who also have day jobs. Why they were only
charging $15 per ticket for such great music is beyond
me. The selections ranged from the more classical
Mendelssohns second trio in C minor, the familiar lush
Meditation from the opera Thais by Massenet to an
assortment of modern jazz and popular music including
Sweet Georgia Brown and Hiccup de Tango. There was
no written program so its hard to report the entire repertoire. Russell Hancock, the pianist, is the voice of the
trio and he introduced each piece with some background
information. Daniel Cher plays violin and Michael
Flexer, the cello. The format the Trio uses, especially its
interaction with the audience, makes it a new and rewarding musical experience for old and young listeners.

Unemployed face frustration

Even as job market picks up
By Christopher S. Rugaber
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON The job market remains a frustrating place for

Americas 9 million unemployed
perhaps more so as hiring has
accelerated along with job postings.
The pace of job growth over the
past three months was the fastest
in 17 years. The gains spanned
nearly every industry, and some
employers have finally had to dangle higher pay to attract or retain
top talent.

Slow to fill openings

And yet millions of job seekers
still cant find work. Some businesses remain slow to fill their
openings, awaiting the ideal candidate. Many job seekers lack the
skills employers require.
The plight of the unemployed
also reflects an economic reality:
Even in the best times, the number
of job seekers is typically twice
the number of job openings.
The January jobs report that the
government issued Friday pointed
to another factor, too: As hiring
strengthens, more people typically start looking for jobs. As the
number of job seekers grows, so
does competition for work.
The number of openings has
reached nearly 5 million, the most
since 2001. Yet thats barely more
than half the number of people the
government counts as unem-

ployed.
Theres always going to be a
set of job vacancies, and there are
always going to be a set of people
transitioning from unemployment
to work, said Tara Sinclair, an
economics professor at George
Washington University. The
transition isnt instantaneous.

Multiple interviews
For many, the transition can be
maddeningly slow. Complaints
abound about online job sites that
seem to function more as black
holes than as gateways to employment. Applicants cant get past
online portals to explain gaps in
their resumes. Multiple interviews
and other steps even for lowpaying jobs can prolong the
process.
Carlie Kozlowich, 23, had three
interviews last year with a marketing company for a job she was
told would involve travel and
events. Only after accepting the
job did she learn it involved selling goods at a booth in a Costco.
Having amassed roughly $50,000
in debt to earn a college degree,
she felt she had to turn it down.
Three interviews just to say,
Would you like to try a pierogi
today? she said.
Steven Davis, an economist at
the University of Chicago, calculates that it took employers an
average of 25.6 working days to
fill a job in November, the latest
period for which data are avail-

able. That nearly matched Julys

figure of 26, the longest in the 14
years that the government has
gathered the data Davis uses.
An extended hiring period can in
some ways be a positive sign: It
suggests that companies are having a harder time finding workers
because the economy has
strengthened. The number of
unemployed peaked at 15.4 million in October 2009, just after
the recession ended.
Still, the fact that it takes companies so long to fill vacancies,
even with 9 million people unemployed, suggests that more discouraging factors may be at play.

Qualified candidates
Some companies that are seeking high-skilled workers in fields
like information technology and
advanced manufacturing complain
about a shortage of qualified candidates. Some recruiters and online
job sites describe skills mismatches.
Paul DArcy, senior vice president at the job listings website
Indeed. com, says lower-skilled
jobs generally receive a flood of
resumes, while higher-skilled
positions attract far fewer.
Jobs in management, computers
and math and architecture and
engineering far outnumber job
seekers in those fields, according
to Indeeds data.
That doesnt sit well with Bill
Gahan, 51, who has sought work
for nearly a year after moving to
Salt Lake City. Gahan worked in
manufacturing and logistics for 29

years, including as a vice president for logistics at a manufacturer

of hardware and software for visually impaired people.
Told that some experts think
many of the unemployed lack the
right skills, Gahan says, I want
to have a conversation with whoever is saying that.

Higher pay
Increasingly, many economists
agree with Gahan. Though skill
shortages exist in some highly
technical positions, if shortages
of qualified workers were pervasive, employers would likely offer
higher pay. Despite a sharp gain
in January, average pay still hasnt risen much.
Many employers also remain
highly selective, perhaps assuming there are still legions of unemployed to choose from. They may
be right: There are 6.8 million
part-time workers who would prefer full-time jobs 50 percent
more than in 2007, before the
recession began.
The recession also left some
companies reluctant to make permanent hires. They have turned
instead to temporary and contract
workers.
All that has left job seekers like
Stephen Jones in a bind. A lawyer,
Jones hasnt found work since
moving to Windermere, Florida,
more than a year ago. Besides
applying for positions as a
lawyer, Jones has lowered his
sights and sought legal assistant
and paralegal jobs. Having sent
out 200-300 resumes, hes heard

back once or twice.

What do I do? asked Jones,
32. Im overqualified for some
jobs, and Im underqualified for the
jobs that I want to have.
Many companies that want to
hire dont see the hurry.
Explorys, a health care data
provider in Cleveland, plans to
add 80 people to its 142-person
staff this year, mostly in data
analysis. The company uses a
database to help hospitals manage
and anticipate patients needs.

Culture and values

Cleveland is home to several
major health care employers and
research universities, so Explorys
typically has lots of good candidates for jobs, says CEO Steve
McHale, and tries to identify those
who fit its culture and values.
We probably say no more
than other companies, he said.
Geography can pose a hurdle for
some companies that want to hire.
Digi-Key, an online seller of
electrical components, added 521
jobs last year as sales grew, raising its workforce to 3,300. Yet its
located in Thief River Falls,
Minnesota, a town of 8,500 an
hour from the Canadian border.
It has offered relocation bonuses
and arranged bus service to nearby
cities to find applicants. But Rick
Trontvet, vice president for human
resources, worries that those
measures wont be enough as the
company grows.
We have so many jobs and so
few people to fill them, Trontvet
says.

Steelworkers expand strike to 2 BP refineries

By David Koenig
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

DALLAS The first nationwide

strike at U.S. oil refineries since
1980 is spreading to two BP
plants in the Midwest.
The United Steelworkers union
has notified BP Plc. that workers
at refineries in Ohio and Indiana
will strike late Saturday night,
joining a walkout that began this
week at nine other refineries.
A BP spokesman said that the
company expects to continue
operating with replacement workers and doesnt expect a significant effect on production.
About 3, 800 steelworkers
began a strike Feb. 1 at refineries
from California to Kentucky, saying that negotiations with Shell
Oil Co. had broken down. Shell is
negotiating the national contract
for other oil companies.
Union spokeswoman Lynne
Hancock said the workers are seek-

ing better health care benefits and

limits on the use of contractors to
replace union members in maintenance jobs. She said wages are not
an issue.
Refineries are far more automated than they were during the last
nationwide strike 35 years ago.
Management draws up plans to use
nonunion workers and contractors
to keep running. That could blunt
the impact of the steelworkers
walkout and prevent a shock to
gasoline prices.
Generally production is not
impacted by these work stoppages, but prices can go up
because of the perception of an
interruption, said Tom Kloza,
chief oil analyst at the Oil Price
Information Service. Were seeing that on the West Coast.
Three of the targeted refineries
are in California and Washington,
and one a Tesoro Corp. plant in
Martinez, California, that was
already operating at a reduced level

for maintenance work has been

idled.
Wholesale gasoline prices on
the West Coast have increased
about 65 cents per gallon since
hitting bottom in mid-January,
Kloza said, which he attributed
partly to maintenance shutdowns
and usual seasonal trends in gasoline prices the peak driving
season is right around the corner.
The union and Shell have continued to negotiate since the strike
began, Hancock said, and the
union may hope that expanding
the walkout to BP refineries will
put more pressure on Shell negotiators.
BP is disappointed that USW
leadership decided to call a strike
at both the Whiting Refinery and
BP-Husky Toledo Refinery, said
BP spokesman Scott Dean by
email. He said BP remained at the
negotiating table and wanted a
deal that provides good wages
while giving management the

flexibility it needs to remain

competitive in the industry.
BPs plant in Whiting, Indiana,
has about 1,860 employees, more
than 1,000 of whom are represented by the steelworkers. BPs
Toledo refinery in Ohio, which it
owns 50-50 with Canadas Husky
Energy, has about 600 workers,
including more than 300 steelworkers.
After the union workers walk off
the job, the plants will be staffed
by replacements including retirees
and former front-line workers who
now hold salaried jobs, Dean said.
Refiners have reported strong
profits from turning crude oil into
gasoline, jet fuel and other products. Tesoro earned $698 million
in the first nine months of 2014, a
67 percent increase over the same
period the year before.
In trading Friday, benchmark
U.S. crude rose $1.21 to close at
$51.69 per barrel after a strong
employment report hinted at

stronger demand for energy. Oil

prices climbed 7 percent for the
week.
The average national price that
motorists pay for a gallon of regular unleaded inched up less than a
penny early Saturday to $2.172 a
gallon, an increase of 12 cents
from the week before but $1.10
cheaper than a year ago.

Greek premier proclaims end to austerity in policy statement

By Demetris Nellas
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ATHENS, Greece Greeces

new Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras
set his leftist government on a
collision course with Greeces
creditors Sunday, proclaiming an
end to the era of austerity and five
years of bailout barbarity.
Tsipras presented his governments policy statement to Greek
lawmakers which included, as he had
forewarned, all the promises made
by his radical left party, Syriza, in

its manifesto
before
last
months election.
The government
has
taken the irrevocable decision
to stick fully to
Alexis Tsipras its pre-election
c o m m i t ments, Tsipras said, indicating
that he would not compromise on
his partys positions.
By demanding a bridge agree-

ment that would give Greece and

its creditors time to negotiate a
new debt deal much more favorable
to the country by June, Tsipras
appeared to stick to an approach
that got short shrift from
European Union partners in a
series of meetings that Tsipras and
his finance minister had with
European officials this past week.
If our (EU) partners are willing,
we can agree (on a bridge agreement)
tomorrow morning,
Tsipras said.
But this would mean the rest of

the EU abandoning its declared

policies and giving in to Syrizas
demands.
The (bailout deal) has been
abolished by popular mandate,
Tsipras said, referring to the two
deals that have kept debt-riddenGreece solvent and provided a historically unprecedented 240 billion euros in assistance.
This aid also went with austerity
policies that shrank Greeces
economy by a quarter and resulted
in record unemployment, with
more than a quarter of the work-

force jobless.
Having come to power as a
result of a popular backlash
against these measures, Tsipras
geared his speech completely
toward a domestic audience,
insisting that it is the EU that
must return to its founding principles of solidarity, social cohesion, growth and democracy.
We declare categorically, we
will not negotiate our history. We
will not negotiate this peoples
pride and dignity, said an emotional Tsipras.

UNC legend Dean Smith dies at 83

By Aaron Beard
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Dean Smith was more than simply a basketball coach.

Yes, the retired Hall of Famer left North
Carolina as the winningest coach in mens
history after capturing two national titles
along with the 1976 Olympic gold medal
and coaching some of the sports biggest
names, Michael Jordan among them.
But he also was an innovator who left a lasting influence on the sport, as well as someone
known for his stand on civil rights driven by

the belief that it was the right thing to do.

Smith died peacefully Saturday at age 83
at his Chapel Hill home, his family said in a
statement released by the school Sunday. He
was with his wife and five children.
Roy Williams, the current Tar Heels coach and
Smiths assistant for 10 years, said his mentor
was the greatest there ever was on the court but
far, far better off the court with people.
Id like to say on behalf of all our players
and coaches, past and present, that Dean
Smith was the perfect picture of what a college basketball coach should have been,
Williams said in a statement. We love him

and we will miss him.

Smith kept a lower profile amid health
issues in recent years, with his family saying in 2010 he had a condition that was
causing him to lose memory. He was unable
to travel in November 2013 to receive the
Presidential Medal of Freedom, the nations
highest civilian honor presented to Smith
as much for his work off the court as on it.
At the urging of his pastor, he recruited black
athletes, and in 1967 made Charlie Scott the
schools first black scholarship athlete and
one of the first in the segregated South.

SHC upsets Serra

By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

With a wild Saturday night of upsets in the

West Catholic Athletic League, the Serra
boys basketball team had a golden opportunity to jockey for position in the standings.
But the Padres (7-3 in WCAL, 15-5 overall) were among those snakebit by the spate
of upsets with a 57-52 loss at Sacred Heart
Cathedral.
Each of the top three teams in the WCAL
lost Saturday, including first-place St.
Francis falling 37-36 to Bellarmine. St.
Ignatius scored an upset as well with a 63-58
overtime victory over third-place Riordan.
Of Serras five losses this season, four
have now come on the road.
Lifes always tough on the road, Serra
head coach Chuck Rapp said. Thats just the
way it is. Its a good league and teams are
going to defend their home court. Its always
been that way and always will be that way.
Add to the equation a Sacred Heart
Cathedral squad (5-5, 11-9) that played Serra
a lot tougher in the years first matchup than
the final score suggested. The Fightin Irish
stayed with the Padres for three quarters Jan.
17 until Serra ran away with it in the closing
minutes for a 72-63 final.
This time around, the score was deadlocked 38-38 at the end of three quarters of
play. In the fourth quarter, the lead changed
hands six times until SHC took a 51-50 lead
with under two minutes to play when senior
guard David Parsons hammered through traffic to score on a decisive lay-in.
While the Fightin Irish were nearly flawless to the hoop in the fourth quarter, hitting
75 percent (6 of 8) their shots, the Padres
shot a mere 28.5 percent (4 of 14) from the
field in the final quarter.
The decline in Serras potency from the
field was a symptom of the poor road play,
according to Rapp.
Yeah, for sure, he said. You always feel

FANFEST STOPS THE RAIN

As a follow-up to last Tuesdays five-inning perfect game,

Lauren Berriatua and Lacie Crawford nearly did it again.
The College of San Mateo softball pitching tandem faced
two over the minimum in the Lady Bulldogs 18-0 fiveinning, mercy-rule win over Gavilan.
Crawford started and earned the win, firing three innings
of one-hit ball. Berritua finished with two no-hit innings,
her only blemish was one walk against three strikeouts. The
two now own identical 2-0 records and have combined for a
0.53 ERA through four games.
At the plate, CSM (4-0) equaled its best single-game run
production of the season. The Bulldogs previously routed
Merced 18-2 Jan. 31.
Five CSM hitters enjoyed multi-hit games Saturday while
the heart of the order Melina Rodriguez, Berriatua and
Harlee Donovan was a combined 7 for 11. Donovan
socked two home runs to move into a tie for third place in
the state in the category and added four RBIs.
Rodriguez also had four RBIs amid a 3-for-3 day. In addition
to hitting her first home run of the year, Rodriguez improved
her batting average to .833, currently tied for tops in the state.
As a team, CSM had 13 hits. Gavilan (2-5) committed four
errors in the game.
The Bulldogs were originally scheduled to play three
games through the home weekend series, but Friday and
Saturdays games against Shasta were cancelled due to rain.

Baseball falls short of big comeback

The CSM baseball team nearly pulled off a remarkable
comeback in an 8-6 loss to Solano.
The Bulldogs (3-3) trailed by eight runs Saturday at Bulldog
Field but started chipping away in the middle innings. Then a
two-out rally in the bottom of the ninth saw CSM get the
potential winning run on base. The rally was sparked by a
Draco Roberts double. CSM then loaded the bases on back-toback walks before a fly out to right field ended it.
Starting pitcher Matt Gorgolinski took the loss. The
freshmans record falls to 0-1.
The loss snaps the Bulldogs three-game winning streak.
They previously won at Solano (3-2) Thursday 7-4 backed
by starting pitcher Sam Hellingers first victory of the year.

Cal comes up clutch to down No.10 Arizona State

By Al Bravo
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

TEMPE, Ariz. A superior defensive

effort against the 10th-ranked team in the
nation was almost for naught on Sunday.
But Penina Davidson got an offensive
rebound after a missed shot and hit a layup,
her only points of the day, at the buzzer to
lift California (18-5, 10-2) past Arizona
State 50-49 on Sunday.
It was fun, said Davidson, who played
all of three minutes on Sunday. What really
got me was the girls demeanor throughout
the whole game. It was up and down the
whole time but no one ever got down.
That came after Katie Hempen capped a 70 run by making a 3-pointer with 13.3 seconds left to give the Sun Devils their only
lead of the afternoon after trailing by as
much as 14 points in the second half. It was
the only field goal Hempen made all day.
With the win, California moved into a
second-place tie with Arizona State, one
game behind Oregon State with six games
left in the regular season.
Mikayla Cowling scored 16 points to lead
the Bears, who won their seventh straight
since losing to the Sun Devils in Berkeley
on Jan. 16.
Brittany Boyd added nine points and six
rebounds and the Bears held Arizona State,

Ohlone (3-5, 16-9) took a 34-29 lead into
halftime but, in the second half, the Trojans
started taking a more aggressive approach
on offense, according to Piergrossi. Skyline
ultimately got to the line for 32 free throws,

Johnson ignited the Trojans when he got

He got hot, Piergrossi said. We did a
good job. There were two possessions in a
row where we were creating spacing on the

up in his hands, both for 3s.
It was a Jimenez layup in the final minute
of regulation that put Skyline up 65-63. But
after Ohlone tied it with 30 seconds to go,

points while forward Sahara Clay notched a
double-double with 10 points and 12

Ligety settles for bronze in Alpine combined

By Pat Graham
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BEAVER CREEK, Colo. Well behind

after the downhill, Marcel Hirscher of
Austria doubted he had much of a chance. He
couldnt have been more mistaken.
Hirscher made up a staggering 3.16 seconds in the slalom portion of the Alpine
combined to win the gold medal at the world
championships Sunday, with downhill
leader Kjetil Jansrud of Norway hanging on
for silver.
Starting first in the afternoon slalom session, Hirscher took advantage of a rut-free
course to finish in a combined time of 2
minutes, 36.10 seconds. Jansrud, the 30th
skier to go and with big grooves on the
hill, wound up 0.19 seconds back. American
Ted Ligety, the defending champion, earned
bronze after going right after Hirscher,
when the course was still fresh.
The race had a scary moment when Ondrej
Bank of the Czech Republic lost his balance
on the final jump of the downhill and
crashed hard on the snow, sliding across the
finish line on his side. He suffered a concussion, bruised leg and facial cuts.
Bank was disqualified for straddling a gate.
That bumped Hirscher up from 31st to 30th,
and the skier in 30th goes first. So he attacked
the clean course, setting the time to beat.

SERRA

more comfortable with them. Thats why
home teams are often favored and the venue
is big in high school basketball.
You wouldnt know it by the Padres fast
start though. Serra jumped out to a 7-0 lead
from the outset. In fact, SHC did not score
its first points of the game until past the
midway point of the first quarter. By the
start of the second quarter, however, SHC
closed Serras lead to 12-11.
Serra forward Jake Killingsworth got
cooking in the second quarter. The 6-5 junior scored a team-high 13 points in the
game, eight of which came in the second
quarter.
But SHC kept pace with the strong presence of 6-6 center Alfred Hollins. The sophomore was a force in the paint for a gamehigh 19 points, including a 3-pointer to
start the second quarter to give the Fightin
Irish their first lead of the night at 14-12.
The lead seesawed four times in the quarter.
This was two great teams just compet-

ditions to earn his first medal at worlds.

Ligety went second in the slalom after
Hirscher, and when he finished behind his
rival he never thought the time would hold
up for a medal. But it did.
After the downhill leg, I thought I had no
chance, Ligety said. I just skied with reckless abandon in the slalom run and made
some mistakes, somehow lucky enough to
hold on for a medal. Pretty bizarre race,
when you can go from 29th to the podium.
The softer snow definitely played a role,
even on a course that was rather easy.
I earned it because I got lucky enough to
start (No.) 2, more than anything, Ligety
said. On this softer snow, especially with
the heat and the bottom flat, tough to have
any kind of chance unless youre a really
elite slalom skier.
Right after Jansrud finished unable to
top his time Hirscher began celebrating,
running onto the bottom of the hill. He was
that elated, especially considering his
downhill performance which wasnt all
that bad, just far behind Jansrud. Asked if he
could make up that much time, Hirscher simply said, Nope. No.
So what happened?
For sure, in the second run, I was super
lucky to be the first down the slalom
course, Hirscher said. No one was expecting I was going to win this race today.

No one could catch him. Not surprising,

really, since Hirscher is so smooth in technical events.
Its unbelievable, Hirscher said of winning the event that was formerly known as
the super-combined. My plans for this

championships was, in the best case, to

catch one medal, doesnt matter which
color. I reached my goals. Everything that
happens now is super good.
Jansrud, whos not known for his slalom,
had an impressive run on deteriorating con-

ing, Hollins said. [The Padres] have a really great coach, they work hard and theyre a
great team. Theyre very competitive.
In the seasons first matchup between the
teams, erratic shooting was the Fightin
Irishs undoing. This time around, they
adapted to capitalize on their height advantage in the post.
Me and my coach were talking about it
prior to the game, Hollins said. He just
said to go inside more, so thats what I tried
to do. It was very rough, but it was a very
good battle.
Serra 6-4 center Trevor Brown battled for a
game-high nine rebounds, but the senior
missed several inside shots with the heat of
the SHC defense bearing down on him. Serra
exhibited strong passing all night, but its
ability to finish proved to be the offenses
Achilles heal.
The passing helps, Serra senior Marcus
Alvarez said. In a game like this, you need
open looks. We got those open looks. But
all teams have off nights. The ball rolls
funny for everyone sometimes.
Still, the Padres managed to extend a 3833 lead with less than two minutes to play
in the third quarter when Alvarez came off
the bench to hit back-to-back buckets. But
SHC went on a 5-0 run to end the quarter,

capped by a 3-pointer by Parsons. The

fourth-year varsity guard totaled 15 points
in the game.
Then a Serra shooting glut midway through
the fourth quarter proved the most costly
when, with the Padres clinging to a 43-42
lead, they fought for two offensive rebounds
on a single series to stay in the half-court set
for nearly one-and-a-half minutes. Despite
offensive boards from Killingsworth and
Brown, Serra failed to convert. And on the
Fightin Irishs next possession, Nathan
Robinson scored a three-point play by drawing a foul a physical layup.
Serra took the lead twice more, lastly on a
pair of free throws by Paul Smoot, who had
12 points in the game. But SHC got to the
free-throw line for 11 chances in the quarter
and converted seven times.
[The loss] sets us back a little but its
nothing we cant come back from, Alvarez
said. Were a strong team, weve got a lot
of strong guys, a lot of veterans. So, this is
just a setback.
Combined with Mittys 43-23 win over
Valley Christian Saturday, the Monarchs
and the Padres are now tied for second
place in the WCAL standings with three

In a statement Sunday, President
Barack Obama said Smith pushed
forward the civil rights movement
with Scotts recruitment as well as
helping integrate a restaurant and a
neighborhood in Chapel Hill.
Smith showed us something
that Ive seen again and again on
the court that basketball can
tell us a lot more about who you
are than a jumpshot alone ever
could, Obama said.
On the court, his Four Corners
time-melting offense led to the
adoption of the shot clock to counter it. The now-common point to
the passer, in which a scorer
acknowledges a teammates assist,
became a hallmark of Smiths
always humble Carolina Way.
He was a direct coaching descendent of basketballs father, James
Naismith, playing and later coaching at Kansas for the inventor of
the games most famous student,
Jayhawks coach Phog Allen.
At UNC, he tutored perhaps the
games greatest player in Jordan
who burst onto the national
stage as a freshman by hitting the
winning shot in the 1982 NCAA
final and two of basketballs
most successful coaches, fellow
Hall of Famers Larry Brown and
Williams.
When UNC held a reunion for its
1957 and 1982 championship
teams in 2007, Smith drew the

largest applause from the crowd in
the arena bearing his name, even
as he stood alongside Jordan and
fellow Tar Heel great James
Worthy. During the ceremony,
Jordan put his arm around Smith
and kissed him on the head.
In a statement Sunday, Jordan
said Smith was more than a coach
he was a mentor, my teacher,
my second father. Coach was
always there for me whenever I
needed him and I loved him for it.
Smiths only losing season was
his first, and he left the game in
October 1997 having surpassed
Kentuckys Adolph Rupp as the
winningest coach in Division I
mens history with 879 wins in 36
seasons a record now held by
Duke Hall of Fame coach Mike
Krzyzewski.
We have lost a man who cannot
be replaced, Krzyzewski said in a
statement. He was one of a kind
and the sport of basketball lost
one of its true pillars.
Smith led the Tar Heels to 13
Atlantic Coast Conference tournament championships and 11 Final
Fours, winning NCAA titles in
1982 and 1993. Along the way,
more than 95 percent of Smiths
lettermen graduated while more

that way with Bob Knight. Its
never one of his goals and certainly was never one of mine.
Born Feb. 28, 1931, in
Emporia, Kansas, the son of public school teachers, he graduated
from Kansas with a communications degree in 1953. He played
for the Jayhawks teams that won

He served as an assistant coach
at Kansas to Allen and Dick Harp
before joining the Air Force, then
joined Frank McGuires staff at
UNC in 1958. When McGuire left
for the NBA in 1961, the university tapped the 30-year-old Smith to
take over.
Smith went 8-9 in his first season and was even hanged in effigy
after a loss in January 1965 before
his breakthrough run of three
straight Final Fours in the late
1960s. His 1982 team beat Patrick
Ewing and Georgetown in the
final, then his 1993 team beat

SpongeBob unseats Sniper

By Jake Coyle
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

f you read this column regularly, if

youve volunteered with an animal
shelter or if youve ever adopted a cat
from a rescue group or humane society,
youve undoubtedly had this message or
one like it drummed into your head:
indoor cats, on average, live three or four
times as long as cats allowed to roam outside. And, the reasons for this include deadly collisions with vehicles, predatory
wildlife, dog attacks, ghts with other cats
and ingested toxins or poisons. Sadly, our
ofcers pick up dead cats daily. More
recently, weve also been hearing alarming
statistics about outdoor cats in the United
States being responsible for killing billions of wild animals each year; a primary
reason for birds being brought to our
Wildlife Care Center is cat-inicted
injuries. On the other paw, cat owners say
that their cats love the outdoors and will sit
by the window all day. How can our cats
enjoy the outdoors without risking illness
or injury to themselves or without putting
birds at risk? Some owners leash train their
cats; sure, it may look silly, but keeps your
cat and wildlife safe. Others use a cat
fence-in attachment, which makes it next
to impossible for their cat to climb over a
fence and escape the yard. Also, catios
(patios for cats!) seem to be gaining popularity; these enclosed structures that connect to a doggie door or window give your
kitty a way to enjoy outside time without
harming wildlife or themselves. If you
Google catio youll see a range of
images, from simple window boxes to
elaborate open-air, wire mesh tunnels surrounding houses. One of our generous volunteers with construction skills just added a
catio to the outside of our Humane House.
This 400-square-foot model home/interactive learning area is located inside the second oor of our Center for Compassion.
The total materials cost for our catio was
just under $200.

NEW YORK The SpongeBob Movie:

Sponge Out of Water finally unseated Clint
Eastwoods runaway hit American Sniper
at the weekend box office, while a pair of
high-priced fantasies flopped.
Paramount Pictures SpongeBob Movie
earned $56 million in North America, a huge
debut for the animated Nickelodeon bigscreen transfer, according to estimates
Sunday. That finally pushed American
Sniper off the top spot after a three-week
reign. The Navy SEAL drama took in $24.2
million in its fourth week of wide release.
The Wachowskis lavish science-fiction
adventure Jupiter Ascending opened with
just $19 million, a meager amount for a
$175 million production. Warner Bros.
delayed the release of the movie, starring
Channing Tatum and Mila Kunis, from last
summer.
Universals Seventh Son, a supernatural
thriller set in medieval times, debuted with a
scant $7.1 million. The film, produced by
Legendary Pictures and starring Jeff
Bridges, cost nearly $100 million to make.
That gave the box office a couple of lucrative hits and a pair of costly misses to lead
the early February weekend.
The success of The SpongeBob Movie,
the second SpongeBob film following
2004s The SpongeBob SquarePants
Movie, proved the continuing appeal of
the 16-year-old Nickelodeon character. The
colorful, beach-set cartoon about the relentlessly chipper SpongeBob also capitalized
on a marketplace hungry for family films in
the midst of winter, well after the swath of
holiday releases. On the same weekend last
year, Warner Bros. The Lego Movie
emerged as one of 2014s biggest hits.
This movie played a little bit older than
we initially thought it would, said Megan
Colligan, president of worldwide distribution and marketing for Paramount. Its a
real tribute to Nickelodeon and the strength
of the brand and how well they manage the
brand. Its a beloved character that
teenagers love from their childhood.
Jupiter Ascending, which underwent
reshoots, edits and a postponed release,
continues a negative trend for the sibling
directors, Lana and Andy Wachowski. The
film marks their third flop since their hugely popular Matrix trilogy, following
2012s Cloud Atlas and 2008s Speed
Racer.
Theres no question, at its inception
when the movie was greenlit, we had higher
expectations than what the actual result is,

said Jeff Goldstein, head of domestic distribution for Warner Bros. At the end of the
day, the Wachowskis are fine filmmakers.
This one didnt go quite as broadly as we all
wanted, but theyll find a film that will.
Warner Bros. could take solace in the
tremendous success of the Oscar-nominated
American Sniper, which
will cross $300 million by
next weekend. Whereas
Sniper paid off many times
over, Jupiter Ascending
will be costly.
Youre betting with a lot

of money, Goldstein said. Thats whats

great about having a big slate because
youll have a film with American Sniper
that allows you to take risks. And sometimes your risks prove out and sometimes
your risks dont.
Seventh Son, a mystical epic co-starring Julianne Moore, is based on Joseph
Delaneys 2004 fantasy novel The Spooks
Apprentice.
Its another in a string of disappointments for Bridges, whose last two movies
The Giver and R.I.P.D. also struggled at the box office.
But Paul Dergarabedian, senior media analyst for box office firm Rentrak, credited
Warner Bros. and Universal with trying to
make original blockbusters, even if Jupiter
Ascending (which did better overseas
where it made $32.5 millioin) and Seventh
Son fell short.
Both faced challenges of originality.
Theyre too original, in a way, and sci-fi is
not an inexpensive genre to create on the
big screen, Dergarabedian said. While
audiences complain about the lack of originality, I at least admire studios who say:
Lets put some budget behind something
brand new. But it seems like time after time,
audiences close the door on that notion.

for students and she will be sorely missed in
her role as principal by parents and staff.
Gleaton said that she looks forward to the
additional freedom that being a teacher
might grant her, rather than being an administrator.
I will return to the classroom in order to
gain more control over my time. Teaching is
certainly not easier, but the day does end earlier and its possible to take grading and lesson planning home to do, said Gleaton.
Also, summer break is longer. I am looking
for all the time I can have to care for my husband.
Tony Gleaton is an accomplished photographer, whose work has been published in
exhibitions across the world.
Prior to her accepting the role of principal
at Carlmont, Gleaton served as vice principal of instruction at Sequoia High School in
Redwood City.
She said she has enjoyed her time as principal at the high school in Belmont, citing
graduations as some of her prouder
moments, and spoke highly of the local
community.
Coming back to Carlmont as principal
has been wonderful. The staff, students,
community are friendly, helpful and sup-

portive, she said.

But she spoke to the dismay of stepping
down years before she initially planned.
I feel bad to be leaving just when we were
beginning to build on some of our many
strengths, she said.
She is excited to get back into the classroom though.
I love teaching. The daily interaction
with students is wonderful and humbling,
she
said.
I learn so much from my students every
year. I always wanted to be the kind of principal who created conditions for teachers to
love their jobs as much as I loved mine when
I was in the classroom.
Prior to teaching in the high school district, she substituted at local elementary
schools across the Peninsula, before moving onto Ravenswood City Elementary
School District in East Palo Alto.
And after more than two decades in the
Sequoia Union High School District, including a few years at the head of Carlmont,
Gleaton said she struggled with the decision
to prematurely step down as principal.
Im sad and disappointed. I had planned
to retire from this job in eight or 10 years,
she said. I will miss the many, many good
folks who work, attend and send their awesome children to learn at Carlmont.

measure in 2013, which would have
paid for reconstruction and rebuilding of Bowditch to accommodate
fifth-grade students from Foster City,
and renovate Knolls Elementary
School in San Mateo.
Concerns about limited space on
campuses are compounded by projections that the district has very little
classroom flexibility to accommodate the projected growth.
According to the enrollment
report, the district has no available
classrooms at any of its middle
school classrooms, other than the
Bayside STEM Academy, which is
the only campus not projected to
grow substantially in coming years.
The one place you are going to
have space is the one place you are
not going to have growth, Williams
said.
Assistant Superintendent for
Student Services Molly Barton said
the district plans to fit students onto

campuses by using creative means,

such as adjusting the amount of class
periods, to give the district additional facility flexibility.
We are shoehorning students in
and making accommodations as we
go, she said.
Much of the enrollment issues
stem from relatively small class
sizes in the upper middle school
grades, but a bubble of large class
sizes coming up the kindergarten
through fifth grade system. So fewer
students will be graduating out of the
district, while larger class sizes
move up toward middle school campuses.
Trustee Audrey Ng said the district
must continue to address creative solutions for the time being, but also recognize that the stress on facilities from
enrollment growth is a structural concern.
The crucial takeaway is that there
is a crunch at middle schools, but
weve also still got overcrowding
and weve still got growth, she said.
Ng noted that the enrollment concerns facing the district should not
be considered temporary, as the
issues have been developing for

approximately Grand Avenue, wound around
the hills toward the north and then to the
west until the Presidio was reached.
In 1822, William Richardson landed in
the port of Yerba Buena and when his ship,
a British whaler Orion, left, it sailed without him. It was believed he deserted his ship
because he fell in love with the presidios
commandants daughter, Maria Antonia
Martinez. In 1832, he was baptized at the
mission and the couple got married in 1823.
Their first child was born April 9, 1826.

years. And even though the middle

school campuses are the most in need
of immediate action, elementary
schools are experiencing growth as
well, just not as such severe rates.
This is not a blip. Its been happening for 10 years already, and its
not going to go away, she said.
She cited pending residential
developments in San Mateo and
Foster City as further evidence that
schools can expect to see more students flowing into the district in
future years.
Ng, who sits on the Next Steps
Committee, said the group will present possible solutions to address
overcrowding at its next meeting
Monday night. They will then take
feedback from fellow members,
before going to the community with
a variety of options for the district to
address enrollment.

Committee meets 4:30 p.m. Monday

Drive in Foster City.

DOGS
Continued from page 1
The ordinance needs to be updated because a new state law that
took effect Jan. 1 now allows dogs to sit at a restaurants outdoor patios, according to a report to the council by City
Attorney Gregory Rubens.
The council is also considering amending the ordinance to
address fees, insurance and licensing requirements.
Amendments to the ordinance are necessary to reduce safety
risks, according to the report.
The proposed changes specifies what a dog owners liability
will be in the event a pet injures another animal, person or
property.
Amendments also give the city more enforcement over residents who keep dogs determined to be dangerous and impose
penalties on those who violate the terms and conditions of a
dangerous animal permit. A dog that suffers repeat violations of
the ordinance will restrict the owner from being able to keep a
dangerous dog in the future, according to Rubens report.
Fines for violating the ordinance range from $100 for the first
offense and up to $500 for multiple offenses.
The City Council meets 7 p.m., Monday, Feb. 9, City Hall,

The year before he received citizenship, the

family moved to southern California
1829. In 1831 and 1833, two sons were
born. In 1835, Richardson returned to San
Francisco and built the first structure on the
property then called Yerba Buena. Francisco
de Haro was now alcalde (mayor and judge)
of Yerba Buena and he marked the first
street, La Calla de la Fundacion (literally the
Street of the Founding) that ran from the
beach (now Montgomery Street) to the
west, turned north and continued to the presidio. The section at the right turn is now
Grant Street. Richardson constructed the
first home in Yerba Buena at what is now the
corner of Washington Street and Grant
Avenue. In 1834, Captain Don William
Antonio Richardson platted out the area in

Richardson had married and he and his wife
and three children pitched a tent on June 25,
1835, at the corner of Washington and
Grant (827 Grant). Three months later, he
paid $25 for the lot and built a more substantial house and built a fence to protect
his family from the mountain lions and
bears.
Because of his many talents, Richardson
was appointed port captain by Governor
Jose Figueroa in 1835 and he played a significant role in the development of the area.
He frequently served as a pilot on vessels
entering and leaving the harbor. During this
time, he developed a lucrative smuggling

Richardson Bay was named for him.
In 1935, William Richardson was asked
by the Mexican governor to lay out a plan
for a pueblo, Yerba Buena, so the increasing
number of trading ships had a better port
from which to work. The pueblo borders
were roughly todays Pine Street on the
south and Stockton Street to the west. There
were no names on the streets and houses and
businesses were built wherever the builder
acquired land.

year. Councilwoman Irene OConnell
said the influx of money to city coffers
is exhilarating, but also stressed the
importance of fiscal responsibility to
ensure the city is prepared should the
economy take another downturn.
It is very exciting, OConnell said
of the increased revenue. But one of
the things that were very cautious
about it keeping a level budget, even
though things are good right now.
Money to the city from sales and
property taxes have never been higher,
Finance Director Angela Kraetsch
wrote in an email.
Sales tax revenue declined in 2008
during the onset of the Great
Recession, and bottomed out in 2010,
generating only $5.3 million.
Property tax money also declined in
recent years, but has been on a steady
uptick. In 2011, the city received just
over $5 million from home owners.
But profits have climbed back up over
the past few years, generating $6.7
million in 2013.
Kraetsch said the city is riding the
wave of economic recovery to new

SALTBOX
Continued from page 1
Saltbox packed at night with customers as its parking lot remains
empty.
People are walking here from all
around the neighborhood, she said
about the White Oaks neighborhood
that many are starting to call SOLA for
south of Laurel Street.
Saltbox is the name of the architecture of Cape Cod.
Due to the harsh elements there, they
used to build once and build well so
things would age gracefully.
We apply a similar philosophy to
every aspect of our business, Jennifer
said. We firmly believe in the value of
a sound foundation the stability of
our team; the high quality of our food
values; and the timeless aesthetic of
this building.
The Johnstons strive to do things
the right way, not just the easiest way.
In other words, we intend to be here
for the long run, much like a Saltbox
home, she said.

heights.
Now several years past the technical
end of the recession, economically
sensitive revenues are now returning to
pre-recession levels, she said.
Money for the city from hotel taxes
also indicate that the economy is thriving in San Bruno.
Overnight stays in local hotels generated $2.7 million for the city last
year, an increase of more than $1 million since 2011, according to the
report.
Kraetsch said she believes the hotel
tax money is sustainable, due to the
citys proximity to San Francisco
International Airport.
A voter-approved 2 percent hotel tax
increase in 2009, to a rate of 12 percent, aided the record-setting returns.
The establishment of large-scale
technology businesses such as
YouTube, Walmart.com, Ironport, and
Stella & Dot in San Bruno has also
helped the city bring in money from
business travelers as well as sales tax.
OConnell credited those companies
for offering well-paying jobs, which
also has helped spur the general economic recovery of the city.
YouTube is the citys top employer,
supplying jobs for 800 workers, an
increase of 114 jobs from the year
prior. Artichoke Joes Casino is the

second largest supplier of jobs in San

Bruno, offering 374 jobs.
The casino also contributed to the
$1.6 million in cardroom tax money to
the city.
But Kraetsch said general retailers are
still the citys largest source of sales
tax money.
OConnell said the tax money can be
used to finance capital improvement
projects such a sidewalk maintenance
and pothole repair, but there was not
enough money generated to begin
work on larger scale projects without
asking voters to pass a bond measure.
She said residents have expressed
interest in the city renovating the community pool, which she estimated
would cost roughly $3 million.
Councilmembers have not formally
discussed asking residents for a bond
measure, which could be used to finance
capital improvements, said OConnell.
She said the city is instead waiting to
see how the San Bruno Community
Foundation will allocate the nearly
$70 million in settlement money
awarded to the city from Pacific Gas and
Electric as restitution for the 2010 gas
pipeline explosion in the city that
killed eight people and injured 66.
Its hard to ask people for money
when theres $70 million sitting
there, OConnell said.

borhood-gathering spot with a bar, two

patios for outdoor dining and a rooftop
garden where they grow vegetables and
greens for salad.
The couple formerly worked for the
family-owned restaurant in Millbrae
called Finn McCools that has closed.
Its old customers, however, have started to find their way to San Carlos,
Jennifers home town.
They had their eye on a spot in San
Mateo to open the restaurant that
famously became a controversy after a
7-Eleven opened there to the chagrin of
neighbors.
The old deli in San Mateo now sits
vacant as Saltbox has become a
favorite in San Carlos.
This is what we wanted to do in San
Mateo, Sean said as he oversaw his
kitchen staff during a busy lunch service.
The eclectic menu features dishes
from all over the map such as pumpkin
enchiladas, beef stroganoff, polenta
and eggs and burgers topped with flavors from India or Japan.
The menu changes weekly depending
on what fresh ingredients are on hand,
said chef Adam Thompsons.
Its seasonal California cuisine,
Thompson said about the Saltbox
menu.

A walk through the rooftop garden

often dictates what will be on the
menu, he said.
During busy lunch service, you can
hear many orders come in for the fried
chicken sandwich, one of the restaurants top sellers, Sean said.
Its a buttermilk battered chicken
breast with tonkatsu sauce and topped
with roasted green chilis.
Saltbox serves local red and white
wine and San Carlos-based Devils
Canyon Scotch Ale on tap.
Dont be too much in a hurry though
if you come for lunch because the place
can get packed.
Akram Omari dined at Saltbox last
week and had glowing reviews for the
pomelo salad with shrimp he ordered.
His only complaint, however, was
that it took a bit too long to have his
order taken and to pay for it after eating.
I dont like to wait but the food was
good, he said.
