Man found guilty of killing coworker


A man who stabbed a coworker to death
outside a Burlingame office building in July
was found guilty of second degree murder by a
jury Monday, according
to the San Mateo County
District
Attorneys
Office.
Rodney
ONeil
Williams, a 29-year-old
San Francisco man, was
arrested by the U. S.
Rodney
Marshals Service and
Williams
Sacramento police at a
Sacramento residence after a more than twoweek investigation after he stabbed Neil
Lewis during a fight outside an office complex on the 1800 block of Gilbreth Road
just before 6 p.m. July 7.
Williams and Lewis worked together as
hikers, or contractors who would move
rental cars from various lots for the Hertz
Rental Car company at the San Francisco
International Airport.
The men had apparently been dropped off
to pick up a rental car near Gilbreth Road
when they began to argue about Williams
girlfriend. Although police dont believe
Lewis and the woman were ever actually
involved, it appeared to have sparked the
fatal altercation, according to prosecutors.
Lewis was found suffering multiple stab
wounds and was taken to San Francisco
General Hospital where he died about 40
minutes later, police said.
He faces a sentence of 56 years to life in
state prison.

Judge dismisses lawsuit filed by

A federal judge has dismissed the lawsuit
filed by the estate of Yanira Serrano against

The civil suit alleged Menh Trieu, a San

alone and had no reasonable cause to shoot
her in the June 3, 2014, incident.
We appreciate the judges legal analysis
and conclusion that Deputy Trieu acted reasonably in defending against a significant
and potentially deadly threat to himself and
others. That does not take away from the
sympathy we feel for Ms. Serranos family.
The loss of life is something the Sheriffs
Office takes very seriously. We are pleased
that the court, having reviewed all the evidence, agreed that Deputy Trieu acted lawfully and rendered judgment in favor of him and

the San Francisco Police Departments gang
task force, arrested Patrick Rushing on suspicion of robbery and burglary, according to
police.
After developing a lead on his whereabouts, authorities located Rushing at an
apartment in the 1400 block of Bellevue
Avenue, Burlingame police said.
When they tried to contact Rushing inside
the apartment, he attempted to flee through
a side window. Authorities had already set up
a perimeter around the apartment and were
able to apprehend him, according to police.
Authorities had been looking for Rushing
in connection with a Nov. 7 robbery, in
which he allegedly followed a 75-year-old
man from a convenience store to the mans
home on Lorton Avenue, Burlingame police
spokesman Lt. Jay Kiely said.
Rushing then shoved the man to the
ground and snatched a chain he had around
his neck before fleeing the scene. Rushing
also had a warrant for his arrest for a burglary in San Francisco, according to Kiely.
Authorities believe Rushing may have
ties to a San Francisco gang.
Hes a dangerous guy and were glad we
could bring the case to a safe conclusion,
Kiely said.
Rushing has been booked into the
Maguire Correctional Facility.

THE DAILY JOURNAL

70-year-old Mounir El Gendy at his home in


the 400 block of Bermuda Drive on suspicion of annoying a child and sexual battery,
according to police spokesman Sgt. Rick
Decker.
Police had been seeking El Gendy in connection with the incident, which took place
on a SamTrans bus, police said.
At about 11:20 a.m. on March 15, El
Gendy allegedly boarded the bus at the corner of South B Street and First Avenue. He
then sat down next to the teen and tried to
start a conversation with her, according to
police.
El Gendy put his arm around the girl multiple times and touched her face. The girl
told him to stop repeatedly.
El Gendy also allegedly tried unsuccessfully to place his hand under her shirt and
once asked her for a kiss, police said.
A few minutes later, he got off the bus in
the first block of West Hillsdale Boulevard,
near the Hillsdale Shopping Center.
Decker said that after appealing to the
public, police received numerous tips about
the mans identity.
Thankfully we had a huge outpouring
from the community, Decker said. We still
believe its an isolated incident, but were
continuing to investigate to see if its related to any other similar complaints.

Brussels shows vulnerability


of airports to terror attacks
By Scott Mayerowitz
and Davod Koenig
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK The airport attack in


Brussels highlights one of the most
vulnerable stages of aviation security: the time travelers spend between
the curb and the checkpoint.
As travelers wait first to check luggage and then go through metal detectors, they crowd together in areas that
are usually lightly patrolled and
accessible to nearly anyone.
We ignore it, says Isaac Yeffet, a
former head of security for the Israeli
airline El Al who now runs his own
firm, Yeffet Security Consultants,

based in the New York area. We are


careless.
For more than 40 years, security
officials and terrorists have been
fighting to stay ahead of each other.
When airlines and governments made
it harder to hijack planes, terrorists
found new ways to destroy aircraft.
They put bombs in checked luggage
until bag screening became standard.
The 9/11 hijackers defeated 2001 passenger-screening measures and used
knives to turn jets into weapons.
Security checkpoints are designed
to keep terrorists and weapons off
planes, and for the most part they
have worked since the September
2001 attacks.

STOCKHOLM Paris, Copenhagen,


Brussels. In just over a year three
European capitals have been ravaged by
bombs and gunfire.
After each attack life slowly returns
to normal. But its a new normal for
Europe, where terror alerts are always
on high and where people in cities so
far spared major violence assume its a
matter of when, not if.
With each atrocity that occurs we
change, said Ian Duncan, a Scottish
member of the European Parliament in
Brussels. We become less open. We
pull down barriers and close doors. But
it is a direction we are following now.
The carnage in Brussels on Tuesday
came as Europe was still reeling from
the November attacks by Islamic militants in Paris that killed 130 people. In
the following months France and
Belgium have looked like countries at
least partially at war, with soldiers in
the streets, lockdowns and deadly
shootouts with militants.
The rest of Europe has watched with
trepidation.
These were attacks in Belgium. They
could just as well be attacks in Britain
or France or Germany or elsewhere in
Europe, British Prime Minister David
Cameron told the BBC on Tuesday. He
said Britains threat level remains
severe, meaning an attack is considered highly likely.
The Islamic State group claimed
responsibility for the attacks at the
Brussels airport and in the citys subway that left dozens dead and scores
more wounded.
French President Francois Hollande
said the attacks targeted all of Europe
and he warned of a long war ahead.

Baghdad politics slows fight against IS in Anbar


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

AL-TASH, Iraq Iraqi security


forces, supported by coalition
airstrikes, are clearing territory northwest of Baghdad along the Euphrates
River valley as they continue to prepare a push to retake the Islamic State

group-held city of Mosul. But progress


on the ground has been slowed by skirmishes elsewhere and by a political
crisis that has prompted the government to pull some forces back from the
front to secure the capital.
Amid these distractions, Iraqi forces
are concentrating on the IS-held town

of Hit in the western province of


Anbar. Commanders here say the battle for Hit is key to building on their
current momentum, cutting Islamic
State supply lines and linking up government forces to the west and the
north of Baghdad in preparation for an
eventual push on Mosul.

Former Toronto
mayor Rob Ford
dies from cancer
By Rob Gillies
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

TORONTO Rob Ford, the pugnacious, populist former


mayor of Toronto whose career crashed in a drug-driven,
obscenity-laced debacle, died Tuesday after fighting cancer,
his family said. He was 46.
Ford rode into office on a backlash against urban elites. He
cast an image sharply at odds with Canadas reputation for
sedate, unpretentious politics. His tenure as mayor of the
countrys largest city was marred by revelations about his
drinking problems and illegal drug use. He was repeatedly
videotaped and photographed while intoxicated in public.
Nevertheless, he was later elected by a landslide to a city
council seat, a job he held until his death.
One after another, his statements and actions as mayor
became nightly fodder for TV comedians and an embarrassment to many of the suburbanites he championed. Among
the more notable:
Knocking over a 63-year-old female city councilor while
rushing to the defense of his brother, Councilor Doug Ford,
who was insulting spectators in the council chamber.
Threatening murder in a profane, incoherent rant captured by video.
Swearing and slurring his words, calling the police chief
a derogatory name and trying to imitate a Jamaican accent in
a different video.
But his popularity continued. Even after a scandal broke
about Fords use of crack cocaine, hundreds of people lined
up for bobblehead dolls of the mayor, signed by Ford himself. Ford spent countless hours taking pictures with residents eager to be photographed with an international
celebrity.
As he sought a second term as mayor in 2014, Ford was
diagnosed with a rare cancer just two months before the election date.

OPINION

THE DAILY JOURNAL

Selling prescription drugs


The Los Angeles Times

mericans spent almost half a


trillion dollars on prescription drugs last year, or nearly
$1 out of every $6 spent on health
care. And the total is rising fast, driven
by an increased reliance on medications and a shift toward higher-priced
drugs.
Federal taxpayers help pay for some
of those drugs, and earlier this month
the Obama administration proposed a
new approach aimed at encouraging the
use of the most effective medicines,
not the most expensive ones. The proposal was quickly denounced by doctor
groups and drug makers, who argued
that it could harm patients. But what it
really targets is a bad business model
that makes health care needlessly
expensive.
The focus of the experiment is
Medicare Part B, the optional but popular insurance program for older
Americans that covers physician and
outpatient services. Part B pays for a
number of specialty medicines, typically ones like chemotherapy drugs
administered in a doctors ofce or hospital. These drugs cost Americans more
than $22 billion last year, which was
twice the amount spent in 2005. The
biggest part of that increase was a
tripling in the amount spent on biologic drugs complex medications
generated from living cells which
federal researchers said was mainly due
to price hikes.
The Part B drug program exemplies
a problem in the health care system.
The way Medicare pays for prescription

Other voices
drugs gives doctors an incentive to
choose the most expensive alternatives, and gives drug makers an incentive to raise prices relentlessly. In
other words, the system works for doctors and pharmaceutical companies at
the expense of everyone else.
Eliminating such perverse incentives
without reducing the quality of care is
crucial to slowing the unsustainable
growth of health care costs.
Heres how Part B works for many of
the drugs it covers. Doctors, clinics
and pharmacies buy medications for the
patients they treat, then get reimbursed
by the government based on the average price paid for those drugs plus a 6
percent markup. The obvious problem
is that the more expensive the drug, the
more the doctor, clinic or pharmacy
makes on the transaction. That encourages them to use the most expensive of
the effective treatments, which in turn
encourages drug makers to raise prices.
The system has one important safeguard: Brand-name drugs and their
cheaper generic equivalents are reimbursed at the same, comparatively low
price, which encourages prescribers to
use the generics. But prescribers still
have the option to choose a different,
more expensive brand-name drug that
may not have a generic. If its more
effective, great. If not, the system gets
nothing for the extra money spent.
On Friday, the administration published plans for a ve-year experiment
designed to test ways to shift to a system that encourages prescribers and

drug suppliers to get better results at


lower cost. In one part of the test, prescribers would receive a much smaller
markup average cost plus 2.5 percent and a xed fee of about $17 per
prescription. The amount is intended to
be large enough to cover prescribers
nancing and insurance costs, but
small enough to eliminate the prot
motive for prescribing costly meds.
Other methods to be explored include
paying the same amount for different
drugs that yield similar effects, and
eliminating the 20 percent copay for
drugs that deliver the biggest bang for
the buck.
One might wonder why doctors and
clinics are in the business of buying
and selling drugs in the rst place.
They shouldnt be. The government
tried once before to take doctors out of
these transactions by paying drug suppliers directly for Part B medications,
but participation was voluntary and the
effort was suspended in 2009. As part
of the new experiment, the administration is exploring whether and how to
try again.
The drug industrys trade association
defended the current Part B system,
calling it an effective, market-based
pricing mechanism that works to control costs. But as with so much of the
health care system, Part Bs prescription program doesnt function that
way, with prices inuenced only by
supply and demand. The interests of the
people who need care and pay the bills
for it have to be aligned better with
those of the doctors, hospitals and drug
makers that provide it. The administrations proposal is an overdue step in
that direction.

Pride and valor never fail
Editor,
The Belgian people and freedom
loving people everywhere will survive the atrocities thrust upon them at
the Brussels airport Monday morning
(March 22). The courage and nobility
of the Belgians was starkly demonstrated many years ago when their
valiant King Albert I took personal
command of the Belgian army during
the horric ghting on the Western
Front during World War I while his
wife, Queen Elisabeth, volunteered as
a battleeld nurse. May freedom ring;
and may the proud and honorable

Food rules?
A

diet based on quantity rather than quality has


ushered in a new creature into the world
stage: the human being who manages to be
overfed and undernourished, two characteristics seldom
found in the same body in the long natural history of our
species. Michael Pollan, In Defense of Food.
Recently, PBS again repeated Pollans In Defense of
Food documentary as part of their begging sessions as
we call it. Its very interesting, and an educational offering that everyone would benet from watching at least
once. In this unusual way to be introduced to and conrm
the importance of eating healthfully, Michael Pollan
offers an easy to understand, and informational documentary on the subject. Whether its the PBS offering or one
of his many books, Pollan reminds us that the biggest
threat to our health is what is added to our food. Consider
sugar. A thousand percent more sugar is eaten today than
200 years ago. He reminds us that sugar sweetened beverages are the biggest culprit of all. He urges individuals to
take responsibility for
their dietary choices.
At that time, I was also
reading a book on the subject written by Deborah A.
Cohen, M.D., titled, A
Big Fat Crisis about the
problem of obesity in the
United States where twothirds of us are considered
overweight or obese.
Cohen wants the food
industry to be more closely
regulated so that most people (who she considers
basically not personally
responsible for eating so much junk food because they are
unable to control their instincts) will not nd it so easy to
purchase and consume the kinds of foods that promote
obesity and ill health.
Cohen blames the food industry (and rightly so) for
much of the obesity epidemic as they have innovated and
adulterated our food with no concern for anything but
prots. One recent example in the San Francisco
Examiner on Feb. 25 informs us: Food makers turning
everything into snacks.
Cohen also believes that since there are so many regulations on most everything else that affects peoples health
and well-being that there should also be more regulations
as far as food is concerned and lists the many ways that
she believes that it should be done, like eliminating
advertisements for unhealthy products and fast-food establishments and rules for displaying health-compromising
products in markets.
As we all know, there are a great many people whose
attitude is No ones going to tell me what to eat!
Theyre going to eat what they please with no concern for
their future health. They would rather indulge themselves
with the manufactured and adulterated products that leave
much to be desired if we have our health in mind. These are
people who justify Cohens premise. If she gets her way,
those who pay no attention to Pollans guidelines may be
helped in spite of themselves.
When I picked up the March 2016 Nutrition Action
Health Letter, published by the Center for Science in the
Public Interest, I noticed that the editor, Michael
Jacobson, reviewed the 2015-2020 Dietary Guidelines for
Americans. He wrote: The report is crucial because it not
only informs health ofcials, the media and the public,
but also affects standards for school meals and other programs. Unfortunately this, like everything else, has
been inuenced by corporate interests. For instance, the
Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee recommended that
people eat a diet lower in red and processed meat to protect their own health and that of the environment because
huge amounts of land, water and energy are used in raising
livestock and feedlots spew out air and water pollution.
The meat industry lobbied furiously to kill that advice and
the nal edition omits advice that has anything to do with
preserving the health of the planet.
It isnt easy, with all of the sometimes conicting opinions available in print and on the media, for us to sort out
all of the available information about healthy diets. As I
see it, it basically boils down to Michael Pollans rules
of nutrition as found in Food Rules an eaters manual.
Just a few: Avoid products that contain high fructose corn
syrup. Avoid foods you see advertised on television. If it
came from a plant, eat it; if it was made in a plant, dont.
He advises us: Surrender to the Western diet or eat real
food not edible food-like substances.
So, while Pollan encourages us to take seriously the
role of what we eat in relation to our health, Deborah
Cohen works to change the set-up in supermarkets and in
government regulations, and Jacobson works on both,
maybe they, and other equally motivated advocates, will
gradually be able to bring about healthy changes in the
increasingly obesity-producing Western diet.

Jury finds for Merck in
hepatitis drug fight with Gilead
A federal jury in California has ruled in
favor of drugmaker Merck in a high-stakes
lawsuit against rival Gilead Sciences concerning patents for lucrative new drugs for
hepatitis C.
Merck accused Gilead of infringing on
patents it filed over a decade ago, claiming
Gileads sofosbuvir infringes on those
patents. Sofosbuvir is the active ingredient
in Gileads Sovaldi and a component of its
Harvoni, which together brought in $19.1
billion last year. Thats nearly two-thirds of
total revenue for the Foster City biotech
company.
The jury ruled Mercks patents are valid,
sending the case to a new phase to decide
damages. Merck won U.S. approval on Jan.
28 for its own hepatitis C drug, Zepatier,
and priced it well under Harvonis list price
of $94,000 per treatment course.

J&J expands project that aims


to predict and prevent diseases
By Linda A. Johnson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Johnson & Johnson has ramped up its


ambitious project to learn how to predict
who will develop particular diseases and
find therapies to prevent or stop the disease
early, when its most treatable.
Since the health care giant announced its
groundbreaking project in February 2015,
its expanded to include two dozen research
programs with partners in government,
universities, patient advocacy groups and
other drug and diagnostic test companies.
Their expertise and resources should speed
discoveries and allow Johnson & Johnson
to spread its funding across more ventures.
On Tuesday, J&J gave an update and
announced the latest two projects. Theyre
meant to identify which pregnant women
will develop gestational diabetes, and to
identify and treat people at risk of or in
early stages of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, the third-leading cause of
death worldwide.

Weve really been trying to introduce a


new paradigm, the J&J project head, Ben
Wiegand, told the Associated Press in an
exclusive interview. Were moving from
disease care to health care.
Wiegand said the mapping of the human
genome and other recent scientific
advances have made that goal feasible.
J&Js Disease Interception Accelerator
now is working on multiple studies in Type
1 and gestational diabetes, cataracts and
vision-damaging presbyopia, depression
in women during and after pregnancy, lung
disorders and cancers of the cervix, mouth
and throat caused by human papilloma
virus.
The project is remarkable in an industry
whose bread and butter is medicines that
patients with chronic diseases take for
years.
The idea is to first discover biomarkers
measurable biological and molecular signs
in blood and other patient samples indicating a disease will develop or is beginning.

Crystal Springs wallops Harker


By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Christian Flohr had to dig down deep to


realize his dream of throwing a complete
game.
Crystal Springs Uplands No. 3 starter had
never gone the distance in three varsity seasons until Tuesday, as the junior righthander soldiered through seven frames to get
the Gryphons back in the win column with
an 11-0 shutout of Harker at Sea Cloud Park.
The win was a serious statement after the
Gryphons (4-1 PAL Lake, 6-1 overall)

endured their first loss of the year Monday to


undefeated San Mateo. But it is that kind of
resiliency that has become Crystal Springs
identity in recent years, according to manager Rob Cannone.
Weve talked about these kids resiliency, Cannone said. It got away from us
[Monday], but they always find a way to
win.
Flohr did just that Tuesday. After getting
two quick outs in the seventh inning, he was
still sitting under 100 pitches. But then he
surrendered a single and a walk to provoke a
mound visit from Cannone.

While Cannone said he had a hunch he was


going to stick with his starting pitcher,
Flohr worried he was about to get the
hook lobbied hard for his cause.
I spoke first and said: Coach, you cant
pull me. Im staying in, Flohr said.
Cannone decided to give Flohr one more
batter, and the pitcher responded by inducing

Tigers take down S.I.

Chop blocks are no


longer allowed, PATs
moved permanently

By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

With spring break looming, the


Notre Dame-Belmont softball
team wanted to go into it with
momentum in West Catholic
Athletic League play.
Since opening the WCAL season
with a 9-8 loss to Valley
Christian, the Tigers had won two
straight league games as they
hosted St. Ignatius in Belmont
Tuesday afternoon.
Notre Dame fell behind 2-0, rallied to take a 3-2 lead and, after the
Wildcats tied the game in the fth,
the Tigers walked off with a 10inning, 4-3 victory.
Its huge, Notre Dame coach
Tara Straube of the win. S.I. is a
strong team and we wanted to keep
a roll going in WCAL.
Its wins like these that can catapult a team to big things in season
mainly because the Tigers struggled against Wildcats pitcher
Madison Augusto but, in the end,
found a way to solve her.
After Notre Dame (3-1 WCAL, 73 overall) had just one hit through
three innings, the Tigers strung
together four hits to score three
times in the fourth. After that,
Augusto mowed down the Tigers,
retiring the next 10 batters in a
row, stretching from the fth
through the ninth innings.
Notre Dame loaded the bases in
the bottom of the ninth and came
up empty before nally putting the
Wildcats away in the 10th, with
the help of the international
tiebreaker. The international
tiebreaker is employed at the high
school level to begin the 10th
inning, in which the nal out of
the ninth inning begins the 10th

Rules changed
at NFL meetings

NATHAN MOLLAT/DAILY JOURNAL

Notre Dame-Belmonts Olivia Geronimo singles home the game-winning run in the bottom of the
10th inning as the Tigers walked off with a 4-3 win over visiting St. Ignatius Tuesday afternoon.

BOCA RATON, Fla. The chop block has


been entirely outlawed from NFL games, and
extra-point kicks snapped from the 15-yard
line are now permanent.
NFL owners voted Tuesday to approve both
those proposals by the competition committee. They also passed a resolution to expand
what is a horse-collar tackle to cover the
nameplate on the back of jerseys.
In all, seven rule proposals were approved.
The others involved coach-to-player communications from the sideline as well as the press
box; adding a delay-of-game penalty to a team
that calls a timeout when it has none remaining; removing a 5-yard penalty for a receiver
illegally touching a pass after being out of
bounds; and eliminating multiple spots of
enforcement for a double foul after a change of
possession.
The chop block, in which a player blocks an
opponent low while the opponent is engaged
high with another player, had become more
limited in the league because of various rule
changes. Now, all forms of it have been
banned, with violators drawing a 15-yard
penalty.
The competition committee felt it was a dangerous play. Some NFL coaches believe eliminating the chop block will affect the ground
game.
It definitely changes some things,
Broncos coach Gary Kubiak said. That definitely changes some of your teachings of your
techniques. ... The change would be in the
box. Well see how it goes.
The extra point snaps from the 15 were an
experiment for 2015 that worked so well that
making it permanent was a given. Efficiency
on extra points from the 33-yard-line or so
dropped from more than 99 percent to just over
94 percent.

Sharks sunk at the Tank in 1-0 loss to St. Louis


By Josh Dubow
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN JOSE For a team that has given up


more than its share of goals when the opponent has pulled the goalie, protecting a onegoal lead during a 6-on-3 advantage figured
to be a tall task.
Brian Elliott and the St. Louis defense rose
to the occasion.
Elliott made 37 saves in his second
straight shutout since returning from an

injury and the Blues withstood


some
tense
moments late after taking
a pair of penalties to beat
the San Jose Sharks 1-0
on Tuesday night.
We kind of just took
away everything, and
when they did have someBrian Elliott thing they let me see it,
Elliott said. It was huge.
Thats a big kill for our team and especially

at this time of year.


Robby Fabbri scored the lone goal midway through the third period to help the
Blues finish the road trip with a 3-2 record to
remain two points behind Central Divisionleading Dallas. St. Louis is four points ahead
of third-place Chicago.
Elliott has stopped all 56 shots he has
faced against Vancouver and San Jose after
missing nearly four weeks with a knee injury
suffered in a loss to the Sharks last month.
Martin Jones made 23 saves but the

Sharks failed to convert on a late two-man


advantage and missed an opportunity to
clinch a playoff berth. More importantly,
San Jose failed to gain ground in the Pacific
Division after Los Angeles and Anaheim lost
earlier in the night. The Sharks remain one
point behind the second-place Ducks and
five in back of the Kings.
Its disappointing, captain Joe Pavelski
said. Its a missed opportunity. There arent
a lot of games left to make up points. You
have to make a chance like that count.

After rough start, Peavy finishes strong


By Jack Thompson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

GLENDALE, Ariz. Jake Peavy


described his latest outing as encouraging.
After pitching to an 8.53 ERA in his first
four starts, he certainly looked regular-season ready, even with the wind blowing out
to left field.
Got better for sure, Peavy said Tuesday
after throwing 90 pitches for the San
Francisco Giants in an 87 split-squad loss to the
Chicago White Sox.
Jimmy Rollins threerun homer and Travis
Ishikawas solo shot
helped the White Sox
rally after Peavy left the
game. It was Rollins
third homer of the spring
Jake Peavy
and the first
for
Ishikawa, the former Giant who hit the NL
pennant-winning homer against St. Louis
in 2014.
Both homers in the sixth came off Cory
Gearrin.
Austin Jackson also homered, the first of
the spring for Chicagos new center fielder.
Brandon Belt and Miguel Olivo homered for
San Francisco.
Peavy was charged with four runs in 4 2/3
innings, but three came early and he struck
out eight, including the last batter he faced
Chicagos Jose Abreu.
The first inning was a little rough. But I

White Sox 8, Giants 7


got better the second or third time through
their lineup, Peavy said. I made some real
good pitches to their best guy, Abreu, third
time through the lineup, to strike him out.
Felt stronger and thats a good sign.
Tough day to pitch but I think he did a
nice job, Giants manager Bruce Bochy
said. Hes got a plan. Hes smart and he
worked on the fastball command.
Mat Latos pitched in a spring game for
the first time after doing his work on the
back fields until now. The veteran righthander pitched for three teams last season
and had knee surgery in the offseason.
The day started well for Latos, but he gave
up the homers to Belt and Olivo in the fifth
and left after 4 2/3. He allowed 11 hits and
seven runs.
Chicago relievers Tyler Danish, Nate
Jones and Zach Putnam permitted just two
baserunners and no runs.

Abreu looks homeward


While President Obama was watching the
Tampa Bay Rays play the Cuban national
team in Havana, White Sox slugger Abreu
could hardly believe what he was seeing. He
was part of a Major League Baseball contingent that visited Cuba in December, but he
was still amazed.
I am in shock right now, Abreu said
through interpreter Billy Russo before
Tuesdays game in Glendale. I never
thought this could happen so soon. Its

very special.
Told that the president had used him as an
example of a Cuban who went through a
dangerous escape from the island just over
two years ago, Abreu called the mention an
honor. Im very blessed for that and for all
that has happened to me.
Abreu, 28, made it and later signed a sixyear, $68 million deal with the White Sox.
But on Tuesday, he said he remembered his
father buying a TV so they could watch the
game in 1999 when the Baltimore Orioles
played in Havana.
He bought a black-and-white TV just to
watch it because we couldnt afford to go to
that game, Abreu said. I dont know how
my dad did it because we didnt have
money.

On that pitch to Simmons, Ive got to limit
the damage.
Graveman felt good about his changeup and
getting Albert Pujols to ground into a double
play. The right-hander didnt feel as good
about giving up a two-run homer.
I got some weak contact with the changeup, Graveman said. That was good. Im
using it more, trying to get more comfortable
with it. I threw a lot of quality pitches. We
gave up a couple and I came back to get a double play and get out of the inning. It was good
against a good hitter like Pujols.
Santiago experimented with a few pitches
during the game, settling on the slider as one
of his go-to pitches.

I threw a bunch of sliders to both lefties


and righties, he said. Last year, the pitch
would be hit or miss. Now, I feel confident
using it.
Santiago threw all six of his pitches, and
most of them were effective. The screwball, a
pitch he learned while developing his changeup, didnt make the transition from the
bullpen to the game.
I threw five of them, none over the plate,
he said. In the bullpen it was there, but with

Madigan shines as Skyline shuts out Hartnell


By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Daniel Madigan went the distance for his


first collegiate shutout to lead Skyline College
(2-2 in Coast Pacific, 9-10-1 overall) past
Hartnell 4-0 Tuesday at Trojan Diamond.
After Madigan battled with Hartnell (1-3, 1012) starting pitcher Jake Hilliker through four
scoreless frames, the Trojans broke through
with a run in the fifth on a sacrifice fly by catcher Felix Aberouette. It was all the run support
the left-handed Madigan would need, though
Skyline added three more in the seventh.
It always makes it that much easier to
pitch with a lead, Madigan said. And the
way I felt on the mound today I felt like one
run was enough.
The redshirt sophomore scattered seven
hits while striking out nine against three
walks, improving his record to 3-1. The win
is his first in over a month, dating back to
Feb. 12. His nine strikeouts matched a career
high, which he notched as a freshman on
Valentines Day of 2014.

Skylines previously
shoddy defense had been
betraying Madigan. The
Trojans committed six
errors through his last
three starts. Tuesday,
Skyline committed one
error when second baseman Aaron Albaum bootDaniel Madigan ed a grounder allowing
Adam Tanoue to reach
base to start the sixth inning. But
Aberouette wiped the slate clean by gunning
down Tanoue on a steal attempt.
The Trojans also made a couple nice defensive plays to keep Hartnell in check. After the
caught stealing in the sixth, first baseman
Brennan Carey made a leaping snag on a line
drive off the bat of Nick Enrico. Then with one
on and two out in the seventh, center fielder
Brett Berghammer ran down a long shot into
the right-center field gap off the bat of Zack
Foster to end the inning.
Carey and Harley Torres tabbed two hits
apiece for Skyline. Leadoff hitter Ryan

Cuddy had the big hit in the seventh with a


two-run single.

Colts take second straight from Gavilan


Caada (2-0, 6-12) jumped out to a three-run

their season high with 16
hits, including a four-hit
day from leadoff hitter
Jacob Martinez. The hit

Dom Giuliani followed with a two-run double to
stake the Colts to a 3-0 lead. Caada went on to
score single runs in the sixth and seventh
before blowing it open with three in the eighth
and four in the ninth.

Starting pitcher Elijah Saunders allowed two

Tampa Bay Rays beat Cubans with Obama, Castro in attendance


By Peter Orsi
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

HAVANA When Kevin Kiermaier slid


into home for the Tampa Bay Rays first run
of the day, President Barack Obama flung
his arms wide in the sign for safe.
Then he turned to his left and shook the
hand of his seatmate and Cuban counterpart,
Raul Castro.
The scene was a remarkable milestone for
sports diplomacy as the two presidents try
to set aside more than 50 years of Cold War
hostility during which about the only thing
the countries agreed on was a shared love of
baseball.
Obama and Castro even joined in when
fans were doing the wave.
In the landmark game, the first visit by a
major league team to the communist island
since 1999, the Tampa Bay Rays beat the
Cuban national team 4-1 on Tuesday.
James Loney homered and drove in three
runs, and Matt Moore and the Tampa Bay
pitchers shut out the Cubans until Rudy
Reyes homered in the ninth inning.

But the day will be remembered less for


the final score than for the two men sitting
in the front row at Estadio Latinoamericano,
the last stop on Obamas trip to Cuba this
week in a bid to further pave the road toward
normalized relations.
The near-capacity crowd roared as Obama
and Castro entered and walked toward their
seats right behind home plate, waving to
fans and greeting other dignitaries.
Chants of Raul! Raul! broke out.
Rarely has so much pomp and circumstance accompanied an exhibition game.
Former All-Stars Derek Jeter and Dave
Winfield and Major League Baseball
Commissioner Rob Manfred were among
the presidents greeters. Secretary of State
John Kerry was also in the VIP box, as well
as several of Cubas highest officials.
Before the first pitch, Rays players
walked over from the dugout to say hello
and passed flowers and small Cuban flags
through the netting to first lady Michelle
Obama and first daughter Sasha.
Appreciate you guys, said the president,
clad in a white shirt and sunglasses. Castro
was slightly more formal in a blazer.

Obama shared an extended handshake with


ace pitcher Chris Archer, who once was a
minor leaguer for the Chicago Cubs. He
gave Obama, a White Sox fan, a glove
owned by Moore.
The last time a big league club played in
Cuba was 17 years ago when the Baltimore
Orioles came to this same stadium during
spring training.
We wont experience anything like this
again, Rays manager Kevin Cash said
afterward. So its a very special day for
Major League Baseball, the Tampa Bay
Rays and obviously all of our players,
myself included.
Said Moore: Its really great, you know,
this is something that feels like a very big
game back home ... Ive had the opportunity to be in the playoffs a few times and this
feels like that kind of an event.
Both Obama and Castro were gone by the
third inning with Obama heading to the
airport to fly south for a state visit to
Argentina but the stands remained packed
until the final out.
Reyes, a hometown favorite who plays
for Havanas powerhouse club Industriales,

finally gave the fans a reason to cheer with


his solo shot.
It kind of went quiet for a little bit, but
then they get something going, you can
imagine how loud this place can get when
its championship baseball, Cash said.
The day left Reyes imagining something
else, too.
A lot, this game meant a lot, because of
the brotherhood there will be from now on
between Cuban and U.S. baseball, the third
baseman said.
The diamond detente will help open the
door to the possibility that Cuban baseball
players can play in the majors, he said.
What the game lacked in offensive productivity from the home team, it made up for
in pageantry.
Loud music and dancers on the field
warmed the crowd up beforehand, and tots in
tiny baseball uniforms escorted the players
out for introductions.
A white-clad choir sang both countries
national anthems and a flock of doves was
unleashed from the center-field stands. The
Cuban and U.S. flags fluttered atop the
scoreboard under overcast skies.

I was thinking Ive got to keep the ball
down because if I leave it up they might give
it a big ride, Flohr said.
It didnt hurt Flohrs cause that his offense
banged out 11 runs on 11 hits, including a 3for-4 day from his battery mate David Young.
The Gryphons starting first baseman on
days when Flohr doesnt pitch, Young has
started just two games behind the dish this
season. The left-handed hitting junior had a
big day though, starting with an RBI single
in the fourth inning and ending on a two-run
triple in the sixth. He also scored two runs
and swiped two bases.
Crystal Springs is currently batting .368 as
a team. However, according to Young who

leads the Gryphons with nine hits on the season that number needs to go up.
I think we could have scored more, Young
said. I think were swinging the bats all
right, but not to our potential. I think we
have a lot more potential on our team.
If true, thats a scary thought, as Crystal
Springs came out scalding the ball against
Harker.
Junior center fielder Matt Mizota (2 for 3,
two RBIs) got the Gryphons on the board in
the second inning with a two-run single.
Then in the fourth, Crystal Springs sent
nine batters to the plate amid a four-run rally.
After Goodwine opened the inning with a
walk, then advanced two bases on a hit-andrun infield groundout, Young was the first of
five straight Gryphons to reach base by
shooting an RBI single to center. After Young
stole second, Leonard singled him home.
Then after Mizota singled, No. 9 hitter Chris
Loveland followed by offering at a 2-0 pitch
and lining a two-run knock to center.
In the fourth, Goodwine sparked a two-run
rally with a one-out double. He advanced
when Flohr reached on an error. Goodwine
then scored on a balk. And following a single
by Young, Leonard delivered an RBI single to
give Crystal Springs an 8-0 lead.
In the sixth, Crystal Springs added three
more. Goodwine opened the inning with a
booming double to left. Then after a walk to
Flohr, Young drilled a two-run triple up the
left-center gap. Leonard followed with a sacrifice fly to cap the days scoring.
The outpouring of offense was a welcome
sight for Cannone one day after getting fourhit by San Mateo pitchers Kevin Jacobs and
Sergio Noriega in Mondays 9-1 loss.
Despite the lopsided final score though,
Crystal Springs trailed just 2-1 going into
the bottom of the sixth, before the Bearcats
put up a seven-spot in their final at-bat.
Cannone pointed out the silver lining of
Crystal Springs first loss though.

TERRY BERNAL/DAILY JOURNAL

Crystal Springs starter Christian Flohr threw the first complete game of his high school career
in an 11-0 win over Harker.
They were disappointed, Cannone said.
We have a lot of respect for San Mateo and
have a lot of appreciation for how good they

NFL
Continued from page 11
We made it a meaningful play, said Rich McKay, president of
the Atlanta Falcons and co-chairman of the competition committee.
Like the chop block, the horse-collar tackle can lead to serious
injuries. This alteration makes the call easier for on-field officials.
This play has really evolved, or this rule has evolved over the
years, said Dean Blandino, the NFLs officiating director. Your
classic horse collar (is) where the defensive player gets inside
the collar of either the jersey or the shoulder pad from behind or
the side, and pulls the runner toward the ground. We had several
plays over the last couple of years, and you just watch this at full
speed and its the same mechanic. ...
The grab, the pull back, the same potential for injury. The
officials at full speed are calling this a foul, but when you look at
it in slow motion, and you see hes actually not inside the collar,
hes on the nameplate of the jersey. But again, the mechanics of
the tackle are the same, the same potential for injury.
With those items out of the way, the owners will turn their
attention to proposals regarding ejecting players for two

are, but we played with them for six innings.


It gives us confidence that if we clean
things up, we can play with them.

unsportsmanlike conduct penalties; allowing coaches and players on the sideline to use video on their tablets rather than just
photos to review plays; and increasing coaches challenges from
two to three or enhancing what plays can be reviewed.
AFC coaches who met with the media Tuesday were asked their
opinions about player ejections for two unsportsmanlike acts.
There are specific criteria for what those fouls would be, including throwing punches or kicking at opponents, taunting and
using abusive, threatening or insulting language or gestures.
I think were talking about the integrity of the game, Texans
coach Bill OBrien said, and were trying to do a good job of
making sure that the game is played cleanly and things like that.
I think the one thing thats going to be difficult is that lets
just say one of your best players gets an unsportsmanlike penalty early in the game, is he going to become a target, meaning
like are they going to go after this guy to try to get him to do
something where he gets kicked out of a game?
Patriots owners Robert Kraft said Monday he is comfortable
with the level of safety in the NFL.
I think the game of football has never been safer than it is
today, Kraft said. I played. My sons have played. I have three
grandsons who play now. So we have three generations playing
this game. We believe in it. ... I think life lessons and what you
get out of playing football is way beyond the risks of what happens. I honestly believe the risks are being managed as well as
they can be today.

the game to a conclusion.
The Tigers denied the Wildcats in the top
of the 10th, turning a rare 4-3-2 double play,
with Notre Dame catcher Dani Kazakoff
blocking the plate and tagging out S.I.s
Sophie Gomozias to end the inning.
In the bottom of the 10th, Carlee Miller
started at second base for the Tigers. Nicole
Perazzo moved Miller to third with a sacrice bunt to bring up Kazakoff, who hit a
grounder to shortstop, but reached base on a
elders choice.
With runners on second and third and one
out, Olivia Geronimo came to the plate.
Geronimo had a tough day to that point,
going 0 for 4. But she is in the No. 3 spot in
the order for a reason and, on the rst offering from Augusto, Geronimo poked a single
over the head of the S.I. third baseman into
shallow left eld to chase Miller home with
the game-winning run.
That pitcher is really good. She has a lot
of movement, Geronimo said, adding she
thought it was an inside screwball that
Augusto delivered.
I try to stay back and try to drive it,
Geronimo said.
Straube said she knew it was only a matter
of time before Geronimo got a pitch she
could handle.
Shes the right person at the right time,
Straube said. It was only a matter of time
before she got a pitch to help us out.
Geronimos game-winning single made a
winner of Soe Magnani, who pitched a
complete game, scattering ve hits.
The Tigers might not have needed
Geronimos heroics if their defense had

taken care of business in the rst seven


innings. Magnani allowed three runs, only
one of which was earned as four Notre Dame
errors led to a pair of unearned runs.
She continued to battle the whole game,
Straube said of Magnani. She stayed with
her game plan.
The rst run of the game was certainly
earned off the bat of Maicie Levitt, who
jumped on a 1-0 pitch in the top of the second inning and deposited it over the fence in
left eld for a home run and a 1-0 S.I. lead.
The Wildcats increased their lead with an
unearned run in the second. With one out,
Mariel Palacio reached second on a two-base
error on her y ball to center eld. She came
around to score when Claire Gunther ried a
shot just fair down the rst-base line.
Notre Dames bats nally came alive in
the fourth when the Tigers sent eight batters
to the plate. Magnani helped her own cause
with an opposite-eld single to right to
plate Kazakoff, who reached on a bunt single, stole second and moved to third on a
Geronimo groundout.
After Marina Slyvestri was hit by a pitch
and Bianca Magnani singled to load the
bases. Chloe Stogner came to the plate and,
after falling behind 0-2, poked a pitch
between rst and second of a drawn-in S.I.
ineld to drive in two runs to give Notre
Dame a 3-2 advantage.
S.I. proceeded to tie the game in the top of
the fth, again thanks to a Tigers elding
miscue. Alana Locke ended up on third when
the ball got past the Notre Dame right elder and she came in to tie the game on a
Palacio single to center.
Soe Magnani would allow only one more
S.I. hit over the next ve innings and celebrated with her team following Geronimos
game-winning hit.
Beating [S.I.] is great for our momentum,
Straube said.

Avocado can do more than make guacamole. Think pasta sauce!


By Melissa dArabian
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Avocado is far more than just guacamole,


club sandwiches and California omelets.
This creamy, fatty, filling fruit (technically,
its a berry), also is a great source of healthy
fat, making it an excellent replacement for
other fats.
Why have fat at all? Because research is
clear that our bodies need fat to absorb other
nutrients. Not to mention that they taste
good and leave us satisfied. When I eat
healthy fats with my meals, I am far less
likely to dive into a sugary-carby treat later
on. Its that simple. When I find myself
craving a sweet in the afternoon, its almost
always a sure sign that I didnt eat enough
healthy fat at lunch.
Avocado is nutrient-dense, which means
the per-calorie nutritional game is solid.
Avocados are packed with vitamins and minerals. And they are incredibly fiber-rich.
Who would guess given how lusciously
creamy they are? Know that nutrient-dense
also means calorie-dense. So downing a
large bowl of guacamole at happy hour probably is not wise. I aim for an ounce or two a

day, which is about a quarter or a third of a


medium avocado.
What do I do with avocado? I use it when I
want to swap out cheese, such as adding
decadence and creaminess to morning egg
whites. Or I use it as a healthy boost for my
kids morning smoothies, adding vitamins
and filling fiber and fat to jumpstart their
day. Avocado also is a great substitute for
heavy cream; I blend it up to make salad
dressings, silky-rich sauces, even puddings
and baked goods.
Todays recipe is a quick creamy pasta
sauce that needs no cooking. Its as fast as
whizzing up a few ingredients in the blender
and letting piping hot pasta bring all the
heat necessary for the pasta sauce flavors to
bloom. You wont miss the cream!

too thick, add 1 to 2 tablespoons of water.
Once smooth, add the red pepper flakes and
cilantro and pulse to mix, but not completely blend. Seasoned with salt and pepper.
Pour into a large serving bowl.
Once the pasta is cooked, immediately
add it to the sauce let sit for 30 seconds.
Toss to coat the pasta, adding a bit of

GARBAGE
Continued from page 1
Environmental Health sought further
tweaks to the program, such as having
it during the hottest months to fully
understand the impacts on smell and
attracting pests. Lim also noted
RethinkWaste is under temporary leadership as it considers hiring a new
executive director.
I agree in principle that this is a
good program, that we do need to
reduce our trash to the landfill and we
need to find ways to encourage more
compost and recycling, said Lim,
according to a video of the meeting.
At this point, I cant say in all honesty that Im going to trust any of the
data we get. So I think I would approve
the program, but I need to see a huge
sea change in whos running it and
what were being told.
Moving forward, RethinkWastes
Interim Executive Director Hilary
Gans said the organization would heed
the councils request and continue
refining the program before returning
with another proposal.
We look forward to working with
the city of San Mateo residents and
councilmembers to ensure that we
have addressed all concerns regarding
the pilot program and that the residents, staff and councilmembers are
comfortable with a proposed pilot
program before a recommendation is
made to move forward, Gans wrote in
an email after the meeting.
The council hosted a study session
on the program earlier this month and
city staff recommended it approve the
proposal
with
conditions.
RethinkWaste agreed to conduct more
public outreach and explicitly explain
the program to residents, particularly
as some raised concerns about rats
becoming an issue and why their

monthly bill would only be reduced $2
when their garbage collection was cut
in half.
While some residents and officials
with local homeowners associations
had still yet to fully grasp the concept
of the pilot as of last week, others
spoke at Mondays meeting with suggestions.
Although I support the concept,
the reason Im opposed to this project
is because one, I dont think its costeffective to us, the customers, and
number two, I dont see this cutting
down on the amount of residential
waste, said resident Mike Ross.
Instead, Ross proposed officials
consider charging by the pound
instead of by the size of ones bin,
which is in gallons. By having bins
tagged with radio-frequency identification and trucks outfitted with the ability to weigh the bins, people would
have more of an incentive to recycle
and compost because theyd be directly paying for how much garbage they
throw out, Ross argued.
The bottom line is we should be
here to try and eliminate the waste
stream to do that we need to force our
consumers and home owners [to]
make sure when were throwing stuff
away, were throwing stuff away in the
right spot. To do that, we need a more
effective program, Ross said.
RethinkWaste officials have noted
every-other-week garbage pickup has
been successfully implemented in a
variety of cities across the country
and in Canada. Locally, Mountain
View and San Francisco have undergone similar pilot programs as well,
according to RethinkWaste.
Most agreed the ultimate goal of the
program and finding new ways to pro-

mote proper residential waste disposal


is key to addressing climate change.
RethinkWaste customers currently
divert about 50 percent of their waste
from landfills. Items that could be
composted, but are not, are known to
generate greenhouse gas emissions 23
times more potent than carbon dioxide.
Those who have pet waste or diapers
would not be allowed to participate
and would be required to have their
trash picked up every week. In
response
to
other
concerns,
RethinkWaste notes items that could
attract rats or become smelly, such as
food scraps, should be composted and
would continue to be picked up every
week. As to the $2 per month discount, garbage bills also include compost and recycling pickups, which are
not being reduced.
Residents could also opt out of participating simply by putting out their
bins every week.
RethinkWaste had sought to implement a second rendition of the program in Menlo Park following its trial
in San Mateo. Both have been canceled.
While intentions may have been
sound,
the
council
urged
RethinkWaste to address their concerns and return with a proposal that
ideally could be implemented over the
warmer summer. The council voted 5-0
to deny the request without prejudice.
We share a desire for waste to be
reduced. We want this to work, we want
to work with the county Health
System to make it work in a safe and
effective manner, Mayor Joe
Goethals said. We want our residents
to feel like early adopters that are trying to reduce their waste and not like
guinea pigs.

BRUSSELS
Continued from page 1
bomb tore through crowds checking in for
morning flights. About 40 minutes later,
another rush-hour blast ripped through a subway car in central Brussels as it left the
Maelbeek station, in the heart of the
European Unions capital city.
Authorities released a photo taken from
closed-circuit TV footage of three men pushing luggage carts in the airport, saying two of
them apparently were suicide bombers and
that the third dressed in a light-colored
coat, black hat and glasses was at large.
They urged the public to reach out to police if
they recognized him. The two men believed
to be the suicide attackers apparently were
wearing dark gloves on their left hands, possibly to hide detonators.
In police raids Tuesday across Belgium,
authorities later found a nail-filled bomb,
chemical products and an Islamic State flag in
a house in the Schaerbeek neighborhood, the
state prosecutors office said in a statement.
In its claim of responsibility, the Islamic
State group said its members detonated suicide vests both at the airport and in the subway, where many passengers fled to safety
down dark tunnels filled with hazy smoke
from the explosion. A small child wailed, and
commuters used cell phones to light their way
out.
European security officials have been bracing for a major attack for weeks and warned
that IS was actively preparing to strike. The
arrest Friday of Salah Abdeslam, a key suspect
in the Nov. 13 attacks in Paris, heightened
those fears, as investigators said many more
people were involved than originally
thought and that some are still on the loose.
In this time of tragedy, this black moment
for our country, I appeal to everyone to
remain calm but also to show solidarity, said
Belgian Prime Minister Charles Michel, who
announced three days of mourning in his
countrys deadliest terror strike.
Last year it was Paris. Today it is Brussels.

This CCTV image from the Brussels Airport surveillance cameras made available by Belgian
Police, shows what officials believe may be suspects in the Brussels airport attack.
Its the same attacks, said French President
Francois Hollande.
Shockwaves from the attacks crossed
Europe and the Atlantic, prompting heightened security at airports and other sites.
Belgium raised its terror alert to the highest
level, shut the airport through Wednesday and
ordered a city-wide lockdown, deploying
about 500 soldiers onto Brussels largely
empty streets to bolster police checkpoints.
France and Belgium both reinforced border
security.
Justice ministers and interior ministers
from across the 28-nation EU planned an
emergency meeting, possibly Thursday
morning, to assess the fallout. The subway
blast hit beneath buildings that normally
host EU meetings and house the unions top
leadership.
Medical officials treating the wounded said
some victims lost limbs, while others suffered burns or deep gashes from shattered
glass or suspected nails packed in with the
explosives. Among the most seriously
wounded were several children.

The bombings came barely four months


after suicide attackers based in Brussels heavily Muslim Molenbeek district slaughtered
130 people at a Paris nightspots, and intelligence agencies had warned for months a follow-up strike was inevitable. Paris fugitive
Abdeslam was arrested in Molenbeek.
A high-level Belgian judicial official said a
connection by Abdeslam to Tuesdays attacks
is a lead to pursue. The official spoke on
condition of anonymity because the investigation was ongoing.
Abdeslam has told investigators he was
planning to restart something from
Brussels, said Belgian Foreign Minister
Didier Reynders. He said Sunday that authorities took the claim seriously because we
found a lot of weapons, heavy weapons in the
first investigations and we have seen a new
network of people around
him in Brussels.
While Belgian authorities
knew that some kind of
extremist act was being prepared in Europe, we never

23

could have imagined something of this


scale, Belgian Interior Minister Jan Jambon
said.
Officials at the airport in the Brussels suburb of Zaventem said police had discovered a
Kalashnikov assault rifle and an explosivespacked vest abandoned at the facility, offering one potential lead for forensic evidence.
Bomb disposal experts safely dismantled that
explosive device.
A U.S. administration official said
American intelligence officers were working
with their European counterparts to try to
identify the apparently skilled bomb-maker
or makers involved in the Brussels attacks
and to identify any links to the bombs used in
Paris.
The official, who wasnt authorized to
speak publicly on the investigations and
demanded anonymity, told The Associated
Press that at least one of the bombs at the airport was suspected to have been packed into a
suitcase left in the departures hall.
Several Americans were among the wounded, including an Air Force lieutenant colonel
stationed in the Netherlands, his wife and four
children who were at the airport. Mormon
church officials, meanwhile, said three of its
missionaries from Utah were seriously
injured in the blasts and were hospitalized.
Three intelligence officials in Iraq told the
AP that they had warned European colleagues
last month of IS plans to attack airports and
trains, although Belgium wasnt specified as
a likely target. The officials, who monitor
activities in the IS stronghold of Raqqa,
Syria, said Brussels may have become a target
because of the arrest of Abdeslam.
One of the officials all of whom spoke
on condition of anonymity because they were
not authorized to talk about their knowledge
of IS operations said Iraqi intelligence
officials believe that three other IS activists
remain at large in Brussels and are plotting
other suicide-bomb attacks.

demned almost six years ago.
Tong, who is also in the midst of
bankruptcy proceedings and a lawsuit
against a company he contracted to
protect the bluffs below, argues
Pacifica prematurely evacuated the
property and will consider formal legal
action against the city if the commission upholds the yellow tag designation, said Bart Willoughby, a coastal
analyst who lived at the property and
was hired by the owner.
In a statement, City Manager Lorie
Tinfow said officials evacuated the
property to avoid anyone from being
harmed or losing their lives as the
cliffs continue to erode.
Worsening conditions on the bluffs
beneath 310 Esplanade present a clear
and imminent danger to residents,
Tinfow said.
The citys building official declared
the structures uninhabitable after winter storms were caught on a dramatic
drone video eroding an adjacent bluff.
The citys consulting geotechnical
engineer Ted Sayre of Cotton Shires
and Associates, Inc., wrote a report
calling the buildings precipitous location on the bluffs a clear danger,
according to a city press release.
The current combination of oversteepened bluffs combined with the
ongoing El Nio storm season results
in a high level of risk to certain living
space areas on the property, Sayre
wrote.
Willoughby said he believes the
report that was only recently released
isnt accurate. Noting hes been documenting the bluffs for the last 16 years,

TAX
Continued from page 1
the tax on the upcoming presidential
election ballot, if substantial voter
support exists.
Vice Mayor Ricardo Ortiz also noted
the need to receive polling information
as soon as possible.
I hope we get results sooner than
later because if November is an option,
our timeline is pretty narrow, he said.
It is yet to be determined the type of
tax measure the council may pursue,
said Beach, as well as the amount of
money that could be generated from the
initiative.
Plans have been drafted for the recreation center to be rebuilt at its current
site, at 850 Burlingame Ave. , to
include more vibrant and updated facilities.
The project could cost between $37
million and $47 million, depending
largely on the amount of parking built

years and the property was only recently torn down.


320 had much less property
[between the bluffs] back then, than
310 does now. So there was really no
basis for the city to do what they did,
Willoughby said.
Last year, the city filed a criminal
misdemeanor complaint against Tong
related to the condition of 320
Esplanade Ave. and he pleaded no contest to two charges. The city eventually
paid for the demolition of the property,
however, officials will monitor the
Tongs bankruptcy proceedings to see
if they may recover any costs.
Another apartment building owned
by a different party at 330 Esplanade
Ave. will also be demolished due to
cliff erosion making the property
unsafe.
Tong bought the properties for $6
million in 2006 and city officials
claim he could have prevented them
from being tagged by protecting them
as the owners of two nearby apartments
did successfully.
Tong has had every opportunity to
mitigate this, yet he chose not only to
ignore the rapid deterioration of the
bluffs beneath his property, but risk
the publics health and safety, Tinfow
said. Unfortunately, his tenants are
now forced to deal with the consequences.
Willoughby said Tong did hire an
engineering company, but that it
unfortunately designed and constructed
a faulty riprap system, which is now
the focus of another pending lawsuit.

into the plans. Improvements to the


Bayfront trail could cost between $9
million and $11 million, and bicycle
path fixes could cost roughly $2 million, according to a district report.
Mayor Ann Keighran said she
believed in the merits of the proposed
projects, and said polling results will
be helpful in informing the perspective of officials.
It is important we address these capital improvements, she said. We
really need to start performing these
upgrades, so it is important for us to
know what the priorities are in the
community, and come up with a strategic plan to accomplish those upgrades
over time.
The council has also explored building a new park on a piece of property
along Airport Boulevard owned by the
State Lands Commission, which would
also be financed with tax revenue.
But enthusiasm for the project has
been curbed recently, as the state
agency indicated it may not be willing
to lease its property to the city for

longer than 20 years.


As the park project is expected to
cost in the neighborhood of $5 million or $6 million, some councilmembers have expressed reservations
regarding the wisdom of investing so
heavily in a project not owned by the
city.
Burlingame officials are in the
process of discussing lease terms further with representatives from the
State Lands Commission, before deciding whether to pursue the Bayfront
Park project, said Beach.
Theres still a lot to be fleshed out
with the State Lands Commission in
terms of a potential lease, said Beach.
We are waiting to hear more information.
Should the state agency indicate it
may be amenable to offering a lease of
the land for longer than 20 years, some
councilmembers may have a greater
interest in the park project, said Ortiz.
The council also identified two other
projects, worth as much as roughly
$11 million, which could work toward
silencing trains traveling
along the railroad through
Burlingame.
A recent poll of councilmembers indicated there
was little desire to spend tax
revenue on the railroad projects though.
Ortiz said officials expect
to gain greater clarity on the
details of the potential tax
initiative after the poll
results return.
Once we get the results,
we will determine when we
move forward, what kind of
bond, and what projects will
be included in it, he said.
Beach agreed, and said officials look forward to getting
a more clear vision of the
communitys appetite for the
proposed projects, as well as
their willingness to fund the
efforts through a tax measure.
We really do need a pulse
from the community and
whether we have interest in
investing in this, she said.

he argues the property was preemptively evacuated, particularly as no further


erosion has occurred. Although he wasnt able to afford to hire his own geotechnician, he noted Sayre previously
said the property wasnt at risk so long
as a narrow area between the building
and the bluffs remained.

neighboring building at 320 Esplanade

Both Willoughby and the city

by the displaced households during this
difficult time, Anita Rees, executive
director of the Pacifica Resource
Center, wrote in a statement.
Willoughby argued those who formerly lived at the now demolished 320
Esplanade Ave. were given several
months before the building was condemned in 2010. Its been nearly six
