Redwood City sticks with Farm Hill changes

Tweaks to lane reductions follow continued community input
By Anna Schuessler
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Some two years after plans to
reduce the number of lanes on
Farm Hill Boulevard riled some in
the neighborhood, officials are
keeping in place changes made to
nearly 2 miles of winding road on
the citys west side.
Aimed at slowing cars and
increasing safety for drivers,
bicyclists and pedestrians using a
major city artery connecting com-
muters from Interstate 280 to
downtown Redwood City, the
changes were implemented as a
part of a pilot program the City
Council voted to extend for yet
another year at its Nov. 13 meet-
ing.
Initially focused on reducing the
number of lanes running in either
direction from two to one with a
two-way center turn lane and bike
lanes, the pilot has been adjusted
since it began in the fall of 2015
to include acceleration lanes at
some intersections and minor
changes to traffic lights, accord-
ing to a staff report.
Ren White, chair of the Farm
Hill neighborhood association,
called the pilot terrific in slow-
ing traffic on the hillside road
where he said its easier to go
faster than the speed limit. He
noted the contentious discourse
among residents when the pilot
was first proposed has died down
significantly, and noted hes even
seen more bicyclists using the
road in recent weeks. ANNA SCHUESSLER/ DAILY JOURNAL

The shared work of many hands
Public art piece to spark deep exploration of Redwood City history
By Anna Schuessler
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
At 6 feet tall and 3 feet wide, the pages of
the book photographer Brian Taylor is
preparing for the public art piece entitled
Redwood City Pages dwarf those of the
books most people are used to reading.
Filled with images of Redwood City resi-
dents and businesses as well as city land-
scapes, the scenes included in the 20-page
book project the Carmel Valley-based artist
has been working on for the better part of
the last year are, in part, meant to capture
scenes from the citys 150 years of history.
Funded by the Redwood City Parks and
Arts Foundation, the committee responsi-
ble for the citys sesquicentennial celebra-
tion and other local businesses and commu-
nity groups, the project slated for installa-
tion in a room at the downtown Redwood
City library will cap off the citys yearlong
celebration of its 150th anniversary.
But Taylor is also hoping the book
invites viewers to interact with and experi-
ence the scenes, which include the citys
open marshland, small business storefronts
and large redwood trees, among others.
Viewers can participate in the piece by turn-
ing the wood-framed pages which will
span some 6 feet across when the book is
laid at and taking them in up close and
from a few steps away, , said Taylor.
Interactive is one word where people can
open the pages but Id also say its expe-
riential in that you could walk into these
scenes It would ll your eld of vision,
he said.

New evacuations as huge Southern California fire flares up

Crews with help from a eet water-drop-

unpredictable gusts sent the blaze deeper
into residential foothill areas northwest of
Los Angeles that havent burned in decades.
New evacuations were ordered as the re sent

The department posted a photo of one res-

whether other structures burned. Thousands
of homes and businesses in the county were
without power.
The air thick with acrid smoke, even resi-

another shutdown of U.S. 101, a key coastal
highway that was closed intermittently last

Price hikes push health insurance shoppers into hard choices

By Tom Murphy
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Margaret Leatherwood has eight choices
for health insurance next year but no good
options.
The cheapest individual coverage avail-
able in her market would eat up nearly a quar-
ter of the income her husband brings home
from the oilelds.
The Bryson, Texas, couple makes too
much to qualify for Affordable Care Act tax
credits that help people buy coverage. But
they dont make enough to comfortably
afford insurance on their own, even though
Paul Leatherwood works seven days a week.
I hate to put it like this, but it sucks,
said Margaret Leatherwood, who stays at
home and takes care of her grandchildren.

weathered years of price hikes and shrinking
insurance choices with no help. Faced with
more price increases for next year, theyre

The sign-up period for 2018 coverage

shoppers have only a few more days to nd
something that squeezes into their budgets.
I kind of cringe when I am meeting with
those clients because I dont have a solution

The ACA helped chop the U.S. uninsured
population 41 percent to 28.8 million peo-
ple earlier this year from 48.6 million in
2010, when it became law, according to the

The law expanded Medicaid coverage for

Whales, following a deadly
year, could become extinct
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
PORTLAND, Maine Ofcials with the federal govern-
ment say its time to consider the possibility that endangered
right whales could become extinct unless new steps are taken
to protect them.
North Atlantic right whales are among the rarest marine
mammals in the world, and they have endured a deadly year.
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration has
said there are only about 450 of the whales left and 17 of them
have died so far in 2017.
The situation is so dire that American and Canadian regula-
tors need to consider the possibility that the population
wont recover without action soon, said John Bullard, the
Northeast Regional Administrator for NOAA Fisheries. The
high year of mortality is coinciding with a year of poor
reproduction, and there are only about 100 breeding female
North Atlantic right whales left.
You do have to use the extinction word, because thats
where the trend lines say they are, Bullard said. Thats
something we cant let happen.
Bullard and other NOAA ofcials made the comments during
a Tuesday meeting of the regulatory New England Fishery
Management Council. Mark Murray-Brown, an Endangered
Species Act consultant for NOAA, said right whales have
been declining in abundance since 2010, with females hit
harder than males.
The U.S. and Canada must work to reduce the human-caused
deaths of the whales, Murray-Brown said. Vessel-strikes and
entanglement in shing gear are two frequently cited causes
of the whales deaths.
The current status of the right whales is a critical situa-
tion, and using our available resources to recover right
whales is of high importance and high urgency, he said.
The animals give birth in temperate southern waters and
then head to New England and Canada every spring and sum-
mer to feed. All of this years deaths were off of New England
and Canada.
Some recent scientic studies have shed some light on why
whale deaths have ticked up. One, published in the journal
Nature Scientic Reports, stated that the whales move around
much more than previously thought. Some scientists have
posited that whales might be venturing outside of protected
areas in search of food, putting themselves in harms way.
In another study, published last month in the journal
Endangered Species Research, scientists examined right
whale feces and found whales that suffer long entanglements
in shing gear produce hormone levels that indicate high
stress. The stress negatively impacts their ability to repro-
duce even when they survive entanglement, scientists said.
My colleagues are trying to nd solutions so we can nd
out how they can continue to sh, but not entangle whales,
said , Elizabeth Burgess, ascientist with the Anderson Cabot
Center for Ocean Life at the New England Aquarium.

Sandy Hooks legacy: Tighter

NEW CANAAN, Conn. The set-

David Wannagot says he applies some
of the same skills from his 30-year
police career to his new role as a
school sentry.
As he greeted children getting off
the bus at West Elementary School
one recent morning, he scanned their

upset directly to the vice principal.

he sizes up all visitors asking to enter

from her mothers work in chemistry,
but initial discouragement from her
engineer father, who thought she should
do something else. She was inspired by
women engineers she met, but found
few girls around her in advanced high
school science classes.
Essader, who feels strongly connect-
ed to her Muslim faith, also struggled to

about the consistency of training and

Nationally, there is a patchwork of
state laws addressing requirements for

it entirely up to local school boards.
Some states, including Connecticut,
have weighed legislation to impose
standards for non-police security
inside schools.

he said, it would be helpful to have
common agreement on the role of pri-
vate guards.

Moore avoids spotlight domed towers.

By Kim Chandler
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
MONTGOMERY, Ala. Republican U.S.
Senate candidate Roy Moore has been a rare
sight on the traditional campaign trail in
the days ahead of a critical U.S. Senate race.
Hes appeared at only a handful of rallies in
front of friendly audiences and steadfastly
has shunned reporters from the mainstream
media.
Moores past campaigns have never been
heavy on the conventional, but his relative
absence from the spotlight this time around
is nearly unheard of for a major party candi-
date.
Moore has focused on meeting with small
groups of supporters and an aggressive
social media campaign out of camera range
as he tries to win Tuesdays election against
Democrat Doug Jones - a contest that was
supposed to be an easy GOP victory - until
November, when a number of women
stepped forward to accuse Moore of engag-
ing in sexual misconduct when he was in his
30s and they were teenagers.
Moore has denied the allegations and
refuses to back down.
Moores stealth effort has left Jones
resorting to mockery as the Democrat criss-
crosses the state trying to pull an upset in
Tuesdays special election, buoyed by the
possibility that enough Republicans will
abandon the 70-year-old Moore in the wake
of the allegations.
Roy Moore is in hiding. Hes kind of
like the groundhog. He comes out every so
often to see if he can see his shadow, Jones
said Saturday in Selma during one of several
stops for the Democrat this weekend.
Ben DuPre, a campaign spokesman, said
Moore is not holding back.
Hes talking to voters. We are getting the
message out any way that we can. I know
you are the old media and you get offended
when we dont talk to you, but weve got
Twitter. Weve got Facebook. Hes doing
interviews. Hes doing radio.
Moores campaign is actively pushing
his narrative on social media and in press
releases. Hes also drawing headlines with
the help of President Donald Trump, who
came to the Florida Panhandle on Friday
night and has lined up a recorded telephone
call from the president that will start being
delivered to Alabama voters on Monday.
Moore has never been conventional. He
has built a large following among some
evangelical voters from two failed gambits:
upholding a display of the Ten
Commandments in a state building and try-
ing to block same-sex marriage in Alabama.
Theres too much at stake for us to stay
home, Price said of Tuesdays election. He
didnt endorse Jones from the pulpit but in a
later interview called the candidate a hero
to the congregation and Birmingham.
Despite allegations of sexual misconduct
involving teen girls decades ago, Moore
isnt being abandoned by worshippers at
Montgomerys Perry Hill Road Baptist
Church, where Moore spoke at a God and
Country rally in September before the accu-
sations arose.
Leaving the red-brick building after a serv-
ice that ended with a hymn and an altar call,
Kevin Mims said he didnt believe the claims
against Moore. But even if true, he said, they
occurred long ago, and Moore is a conserva-
tive who stands on the word of God.
Everyone has to vote their convictions,
said Mims, holding a Bible. My conviction
is hes the right man for the job.
Lines arent so clearly dened elsewhere.
Interviews with a dozen parishioners at
Mobiles Ashland Place United Methodist
After church, Jones told supporters in a
cramped campaign ofce that the results of
Tuesdays vote would send a message far
beyond Alabamas borders.
This is an election to tell the whole world
what we stand for, he said, adding: This
campaign, ladies and gentlemen, is on the
right side of history.
President Donald Trump weighed in on the
race with a phone message that state voters
will receive beginning Monday urging them
to vote for Moore.
Im going to make America safer and
stronger and better than ever before. But we
need that seat; we need Roy voting for us,
Trump said in audio of the call provided by
the Moore campaign.
Polls show the race too close to call. While
Moore had a clear path to victory in a state
where no Democrat holds statewide ofce,
the 70-year-old has been ghting for his
political life since reports surfaced a month
ago that he made sexual advances on teen
girls when he was a deputy district attorney
in his 30s.

Israeli, French leaders tangle
due to U.S. Jerusalem decision
By Josef Federman
and Tia Goldenberg
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
JERUSALEM The French and Israeli leaders sparred
verbally Sunday over the U.S. decision to recognize
Jerusalem as Israels capital, while new violence rippled
across the region following the move by U.S. President
Donald Trump.
In Jerusalem, a Palestinian stabbed an Israeli security
guard, seriously wounding him in the rst attack in the
volatile city since Trumps pronouncement Wednesday. In
Beirut, scores of Lebanese and Palestinian demonstrators
clashed with security forces outside the heavily guarded U.S.
Embassy, and Arab foreign ministers meeting in Cairo
demanded that the United States rescind the decision.
The move upended decades of U.S. policy, and a long-
standing international consensus, that the fate of Jerusalem
be decided in negotiations. Israeli and Palestinian claims to
the citys eastern sector form the emotional core of their
conict, and Trumps announcement was seen as siding with
the Israelis and has drawn wide international criticism.
At a meeting in Paris with Israels visiting prime minister,
French President Emmanuel Macron condemned recent vio-
lence against Israelis. But he also expressed disapproval
of Trumps decision, calling it dangerous for peace.
It doesnt seem to serve, in the short term, the cause of
Israels security and the Israelis themselves, Macron said.
He urged Israel to freeze its construction of settlements on
occupied lands and called for other condence-building
measures toward the Palestinians.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who has
called Trumps decision historic, said Israel has main-
tained its capital in the city for 70 years and the Jewish con-
nection to Jerusalem goes back 3,000 years.
Paris is the capital of France, Jerusalem is the capital of
Israel, he said. We respect your history and your choices.
And we know that as friends, you respect ours.
Now open on Saturdays!

A Palestinian kicks a burning tire during clashes with Israeli
troops at a protest against President Donald Trumps decision
to recognize Jerusalem as Israels capital.
I think the sooner the Palestinians come to grips with
this reality, the sooner we move toward peace, he added.
The exchange between the two allies set the stage for what
could be a tense meeting Monday for Netanyahu with
European Union foreign ministers in Brussels. The
Jerusalem issue and the moribund peace process are expected
to be high on the agenda.
Last week, EU foreign policy chief Federica Mogherini
warned that Trumps decision has the potential to send us
backward to even darker times than the one we are already
living in.
She also warned that Trumps move could diminish the
potential role that the United States could play in the region
and create more confusion around this.

World leaders congratulate Iraq on defeating IS
BAGHDAD World leaders congratulated Iraq Sunday fol-
lowing the prime ministers declaration of victory over the
Islamic State group. Saudi Arabia says the achievement is a
big victory against terrorism in the region and the United
Kingdom applauded Iraqs security forces for their courage
and sacrice.
Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi declared victory in the
more than three year ght against IS in a national address
aired on Iraqi state television Saturday evening.
Sunday was an ofcial holiday in Iraq. A military parade
attended by al-Abadi was held inside Baghdads fortied Green
Zone a district that houses most of Iraqs government
buildings and foreign embassies. In the evening, the capitals
skies lled with reworks.
Daesh no longer hold signicant territory in Iraq or Syria,
United Kingdom Prime Minister Theresa May said according
to an ofcial statement released by her ofce. This signals a
new chapter towards a more peaceful, prosperous country.
In Saudi Arabias statement Sunday, the kingdom reiterated
Saudi support for Iraq.
Several thousand Saudis are believed to have joined the
ranks of Sunni extremist groups to ght in Iraq and Syria.
However, the kingdom has also been a target of multiple
attacks claimed by IS and carried out by local afliates.
The top U.S.-led coalition commander U.S. Lt. Gen. Paul E.
Funk II pledged that coalition forces would continue to sup-
port Iraq after the conventional military ght against IS is
concluded.
Brexit secretary says a
no-deal Brexit now less likely
LONDON The likelihood of Britain leaving the European
Union without a future trade deal has dropped dramatically
now that the two sides have reached a preliminary agreement
on their divorce terms, the countrys Brexit secretary said
Sunday.
The deal hammered out by Prime Minister Theresa May last
week means the negotiations on Britains March 2019 depar-
ture from the EU can move onto the next phase, Brexit
Secretary David Davis told the BBC.
The progress should give Britain enough time to negotiate
a free-trade agreement for once it is outside the EU, making it
unlikely the country will have to fall back on World Trade
Organization rules that would impose tariffs, he said.
The odds, as it were, against a WTO, or no-deal outcome,
have dropped dramatically, Davis said.
The risk of Britain crashing out of the EU without a deal has
raised concern among business leaders who feared such a result
would hamper trade and investment and weaken the nations
economy.
The danger of a no-deal Brexit would have been much greater
without last weeks agreement on so-called divorce issues,
including citizens rights and the Irish border, because the pre-
liminary talks could have stretched on for months.

Stop killer robots
By David J. Canepa
C
all me crazy. Last month, I
picked up a copy of the Daily
Journal and came across a
headline on the opinion page that
read: Robots, drones and bots too
potentially the end of us?
My heart literally skipped a beat
because my office had been very quiet-
ly researching and working on a reso-
lution for months related to this very
topic. Some in my office had previ-
ously expressed hesitancy on pursu-
ing the work because, well, people
might think Im crazy.
The Daily Journal opinion piece in
the Nov. 13 edition was written by
longtime columnist Sue Lempert, the
former mayor of San Mateo.
In it, she writes: And, just as in
those horrible noisy movies, robots
may remove warfare from human con-
trol.
Ding, ding, ding a bell rung in my
head. This is my precise fear.
She continued: Since the genie is
already out of the bottle, its time for
some regulations and a thoughtful
analysis of where we (humans) are
headed while we (humans) are still in
control.
Ding, ding, the bell rung again.
This is my exact solution, specifical-
ly when it comes to fully autonomous
weapons also known as killer
robots like the kinds in those
Transformer movies.
I doubt Lempert knew that the first
meeting ever of the Convention on
Conventional Weapons (CCW) Group

not before he asked a very important
question: if what he did cost him his

The meeting last month in Geneva
was not intended to negotiate a new
protocol to ban or regulate lethal
autonomous weapons but rather to get
the discussion started, according to
the Campaign to Stop Killer Robots.
As of this writing, only 22 coun-
tries have endorsed the call to pre-
emptively ban fully autonomous
weapons but the United States is not
one of them, despite more than 3,400
artificial intelligence and robotics
experts who signed an open letter in
2015 urging such a move. Nearly
19,000 other individuals, including
Tesla founder Elon Musk, Stephen

Their concern is that rapid advances
in artificial intelligence will enable
robots within the next few years to
make life or death decisions all on
their own without human interfer-
ence.

So scary that I decided dialogue

Before deciding to place the resolu-

of Supervisors agenda, my office
conferred with University of

this local action. I am pleased to say
he strongly supports it.
Russells research area is artificial

Whats false? And whos lying?
W
hat makes it possible for a totalitarian or
any other dictatorship to rule is that peo-
ple are not informed; how can you have
an opinion if you are not informed? If everybody always
lies to you, the consequence is not that you believe the
lies, but rather that nobody believes anything any
longer. This is because lies, by their very nature, have
to be changed, and a lying government has constantly
to rewrite its own history. On the receiving end you get
not only one lie ... you get a great number of lies,
depending on how the political wind blows. And a peo-
ple that no longer can believe anything cannot make up
its mind. It is deprived not only of its capacity to act
but also of its capacity to think and to judge. And with
such a people you can then
do what you please.
Hannah Arendt.

Our president is the liar
in chief. He tells so many
lies each day it isnt news.
More than half the country
does not believe him. And
even some of his support-
ers know he may be loose
with facts but they refuse
to judge. And for the rest
of us, the real news gets
worse each day.
Heres a sampling: the
Republican candidate for
U.S. senator in Alabama,
Roy Moore, endorsed by the president and the
Republican National Committee, is alleged to be a child
molester, but his supporters dont believe his accusers
and he could win election.
Special Counsel Robert Mueller is on the trail of
those close to Trump (and probably including the presi-
dent) who collaborated with the Russians to influence
the presidential election of 2016. The tweeter in chief
denies this, tells his supporters its a partisan trick to
bring him down. His supporters dont care although not
too long ago Russia was considered the number one
enemy of the United States.
The Republican tax bill claims everyone will benefit
from reduced taxes but especially the middle class. Most
economists say this is not so. Whos lying?
Congressional Republicans or Nobel prize winners? And
your answer may depend on where you receive your
news.
An analysis by the Institute on Taxation and
Economic Policy shows that the top 1 percent of
Californians would receive an average $14,370 annual
tax credit while the bottom 60 percent would on average
pay more in taxes by 2027. Is this fake or real?
The Republican tax bill will add $ 1.4 trillion or more
to the deficit (equal to the amount in tax cuts). U.S. Sen.
Bob Corker, a deficit hawk, is the only Republican to
vote no. In the past, reducing the deficit has been the
mantra of the GOP. But now most Republicans insist
trickle-down economics (Reagans budget director David
Stockmans discredited theory) will work and that the
tax cuts on business will spur economic growth, enough
to make up for the deficit. Do you buy that or that most
corporations will give those extra funds back to share-
holders and instead of hiring more employees will find
cheaper labor through automation. Again it depends on
where you receive your news. As for members of
Congress, many of whom are intelligent and well-mean-
ing, I believe they have begun to believe their own lies.
An untruth told often enough eventually becomes a truth
for too many. And a government which keeps lying and
rewrites history so confuses the public that it is easier
to believe all politicians lie. Why bother trying to find
out the truth. Its easier to give up and be manipulated.
The federal deficit this year, despite healthy economic
growth, topped $660 billion. The national debt now
exceeds $20 trillion. Is this something which should
concern most people? It does not. Because these are
complicated figures to comprehend and most dont
understand how such unprecedented debt will affect them
and their children. It is more comfortable to think taxes
will be cut and the economy will grow. Are we now a
people that no longer can believe anything (and) cannot
make up its mind ... deprived not only of its capacity to
act but also of its capacity to think and to judge. And
with such a people you can then do what you please.
(Including cutting the safety net of Medicare and Social
Security to help pay the bills?)

The only antidote to Arendts dire analysis is a free

Sexual misconduct often part of the job in hospitality work
By Don Babwin
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CHICAGO One woman recalls how a
general manager at a Chicago-area restau-
rant where she worked told her that if securi-
ty cameras recorded him reaching between
her legs and grabbing her genitals, he could
simply edit that out.
Another woman worked at an Atlanta
restaurant and says her boss did nothing
when two dishwashers kept making vulgar
comments, so she quit wearing makeup to
look less attractive and hopefully end the
verbal abuse.
In the wake of sexual misconduct allega-
tions against several prominent men in
entertainment, politics and journalism,
accounts like the ones these women share
quietly play out in restaurants, bars and
hotels across the country and rarely get the
headlines.
Court documents and interviews with the
women and experts on the topic show hos-
pitality industry workers are routinely sub-
jected to sexual abuse and harassment from
bosses, co-workers and customers that are

German intelligence warns of
increased Chinese cyberspying
BERLIN The head of Germanys domes-
tic intelligence agency warned Sunday that
China allegedly is using social networks to
try to cultivate lawmakers and other ofcials
as sources.
Hans-Georg Maassen said his agency,
known by its German acronym BfV, believes
more than 10,000 Germans have been target-
ed by Chinese intelligence agents posing as
consultants, headhunters or researchers, pri-
marily on the social networking site
LinkedIn.
This is a broad-based attempt to inltrate
in particular parliaments, ministries and
government agencies, Maassen said.
In addition, Chinese hackers increasingly
are launching attacks on European compa-
nies through trusted suppliers, he alleged.
The BfV established a task force early this
year which examined the use of fake proles
on social networks over nine months. The
agency provided journalists with what it said
were eight of the most prolic fake proles
on LinkedIn used by alleged Chinese spies.
Using names such as Lily Wu, Laeticia
Chen or Alex Li, the proles sport impres-
sive resumes, hundreds of contacts and
attractive pictures of young professionals.
The agency also named six organizations
it alleged Chinese spies use to cloak their
approaches, including one called the
Association France Euro-Chine and another
named Global View Strategic Consulting.
Messages seeking comment from the
organizations werent immediately returned.
Maassen warned that Chinese cybergroups
also were using so-called supply-chain
attacks to get around companies online
defenses.
Such attacks target IT workers and others
who work for trusted service providers to
send malicious software into the networks of
organizations the attackers are interested in.
The infections are difcult to detect, since
network connections between service
providers and their customers arent suspi-
cious, the BfV said. This gives the attack-
er an even better disguise than before.

largely unchecked. The nature of the work,
which often has employees relying on tips,
can make them especially vulnerable to
abuse.
I was absolutely humiliated, said
Sharonda Fields, who said the abuse at the
Atlanta restaurant began shortly after she
started working there last year. It was
degrading. I felt embarrassed. I felt low. I
just felt like nothing happened when those
guys talked to me that way, and especially
when the staff and the managers knew what
was going on. It made me feel like dirt.

Associated Press went unanswered.

Bitcoin future set to begin
trading at Chicago exchange
CHICAGO A security based on bitcoin,
the digital currency that has exploded in
popularly and volatility this year, was to
begin trading on a major U.S. exchange for
the rst time on Sunday.
The Chicago Board Options Exchange,
one of the nations largest traders of options
and futures, planned to open up bitcoin
futures for trading at 5 p.m. CST.
The CBOE futures dont involve actual bit-
coin. Theyre securities that will track the
price of bitcoin on Gemini, one of the larger
bitcoin exchanges.
Another large futures exchange, the
Chicago Mercantile Exchange, will start
trading its own futures on Dec. 18 but will
use a composite of several bitcoin prices
across a handful of exchanges.
The price of a bitcoin began the year below
$1,000. As of 3 p.m. Sunday, a bitcoin was
quoted at $15,375 on the bitcoin exchange
Coindesk.
Futures are a type of contract in which a
buyer and a seller agree on a price for a par-
ticular item to be delivered on a certain date
in the future, hence the name. Futures are
available for nearly every type of security
but are most famously used in commodities
such as wheat, soy, gold, oil and cocoa.

A stronger global economy may be
helping boost the U.S. job market
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON The U.S. job market is
beneting from an unlikely source: Other
countries.
The global economy is showing renewed
strength, with Europe, Japan and many
developing nations growing in tandem for
the rst time in a decade. The brightening
international picture is encouraging more
hiring in the United States even among
manufacturers, which have been hurt in the
past by global competition.
Were seeing demand coming from where
we havent seen it in a long, long time, said
Scott Anderson, chief economist at Bank of
the West. Were riding the wave of that added
global growth.
In November, U.S. employers added a sub-
stantial 228,000 jobs, the Labor Department
said Friday. It was the 86th straight month of
gains, the longest on record, and a sign of
the job markets enduring strength in the
economys ninth year of expansion. The
unemployment rate held at 4.1 percent, a 17-
year low.
Fridays jobs report coincided with other
signs that the U.S. economy remains on rm
footing. In the past six months, economic
growth has exceeded an annual rate of 3 per-
cent, the rst time thats happened since
2014. Consumer condence has reached its
highest level since 2000.
Europes economy is poised to grow at the
fastest pace in a decade, and its unemploy-
ment rate has reached its lowest level in near-
ly nine years. Japans economy expanded in
the fall for the seventh straight quarter, its
longest period of growth since 2001. Such
developing economies as China and India are
growing steadily.

at its fastest pace in seven years, according

Sarah Lyons, a research analyst with

index derive about half their revenue from
abroad.
Exports contributed 0.43 percentage point
to economic growth in the July-September
quarter, the most in nearly four years.
Factories are making more goods for over-
seas markets, including agricultural and min-
ing equipment. Exports of aircraft engines
are up 13 percent, overseas shipments of
semiconductors up 8 percent.
Manufacturers have stepped up hiring. In
November, they added 31,000 jobs. Over the
past year, theyve added 189,000.
More than anything, a marked improve-
ment in the global economy is what is driv-
ing a better US manufacturing picture, said
Cliff Waldman, chief economist at MAPI
Foundation, a manufacturing research group.
Still, solid hiring and a low unemployment
rate have yet to accelerate wages, which rose
2.5 percent in November compared with a
year earlier. The last time unemployment was
this low, average wages were growing at a 4
percent annual rate.
The November jobs data make it a near-cer-
tainty that the Federal Reserve will raise
short-term interest rates for the third time
this year when it meets next week, econo-
mists said.
Hiring last month went well beyond manu-
facturing. Construction rms added 24,000
jobs. Retailers added nearly 19,000 posi-
tions, a sign that physical stores are hiring
for the holiday shopping season even in the
face of brutal competition from e-commerce
companies.
Transportation and warehousing compa-
nies, which are beneting from the e-com-
merce boom, added 10,500.
Hiring has slowed slightly since last year,
which is typical when unemployment falls to
low levels. Employers have added an average
of 174,000 a month this year, a bit below
last years monthly average of 187,000.

Half Moon Bay beats Sutter

When the Half Moon Bay football team
won the first of its three straight Central
Coast Section championships three seasons
ago, never in their wildest dreams did the
Cougars think they would ever be playing
for a state title.

title runs.

Well, that dream became reality Saturday
night along the coast. Half Moon Bay

capture the Northern California Division 3A

nobody could blame him for unloading a
pass to Raiders running back Marshawn
Lynch a bit early Sunday.
Well, except for Lynch.
The pass into the right flat set up Lynch like
a golf ball on a tee, and
Chiefs linebacker Derrick
Johnson ran right through
him with a bone-jarring
tackle that perfectly
summed up Oaklands day.
Whenever you get a
chance to hit Beast
Mode when hes not
looking, you better take
Derek Carr
the shot, Johnson said
with a smile. Carr served him up right
there. Im sure hell have a talk with Carr
after that one, but I had to take my shot.
Its not like Carr didnt take enough shots
of his own.
The quarterback with the uncanny ability
to unload the ball quickly was dropped three
times in the Raiders 26-15 loss. Things
didnt go that well when he managed to get
the ball off, either he was 24 of 41 for
211 yards with a late touchdown pass and
two interceptions.
Just frustrated. With myself, he said.
Theres obviously going to be plays
youre going to want back, but thats every
game. I saw the coverage fine. I was going
to certain places with the ball that I thought
were right. It was one of those things. At
the end of the day it wasnt good enough.

Chiefs 26, Raiders 15

26-15 loss Sunday at Arrowhead Stadium.
Asked to rate his young franchise quarter-
backs performance, Raiders coach Jack Del
Rio was blunt: Hes the triggerman of our
offense. The offense didnt get done what we
needed to get done.
Carrs performance was even more sur-
prising given the situation.
The Chiefs had been gutted by the lowly
New York Jets last week, allowing 331

yards passing to Josh McCown in a 38-31
loss. They had also suspended their top cor-
nerback, Marcus Peters, after a series of
embarrassing incidents, including his flag-
toss episode in the Meadowlands.
Then theres the fact Carr, who got
Michael Crabtree back from suspension,
had torched the Chiefs when they met in
October. He threw for 417 yards and three
Monday Dec. 11, 2017 13
touchdowns that afternoon, including the
winning score to Crabtree on the final play.
We had to come in and set the tone,
Chiefs defensive tackle Chris Jones said.
The defensive line, the fourth play of the
game we got a sack. It was all about affect-
ing the quarterback, because we know he
likes to get the ball out fast. And we affect-
ed him.
Carr seems to get affected by the Chiefs a
lot.
Yes, he dominated their matchup in Oakland
this season, but that game has proven to be an
exception to the rule. Three of his 12 worst
games in terms of QB rating have come
against the Chiefs, including a career-worst
performance last season, when he was 17 of
41 for 117 yards in a 21-13 defeat.
There was also the game two years ago,
when he tossed three second-half picks in a
34-20 loss.
The plucky Carr was still slinging it at the
end Sunday, refusing to give up. He threw a
late touchdown pass to Jared Cook and con-
verted the 2-point conversion to make it a
two-possession game in the closing min-
utes But his second pick at the goal line
ended any comeback effort.
It also may have crippled their season-
long comeback effort.
The Raiders had won two straight and three
of four to climb back into the AFC West race,
but any chance to control their chances went
by the wayside at Arrowhead Stadium.
Weve been knowing (this was an elimi-
nation game) for a while, Del Rio said.
Weve talked plenty about that and weve
been asked a lot, because of where we put
ourselves. A situation where weve got to
win the next one and string together wins
and hope its enough.

Continued from page 11
As has been the case all season, Half Moon
Bay (14-0) used a complete team effort. The
offense and defense were both efficient and
special teams came up huge with Hofmann
blocking a second-quarter Sutter 23-yard field
goal attempt and Hayden Von Almen partially
blocking a Huskies punt in their end zone
early in the third quarter.
If you do those things, youre in good
shape, Holden said.
Big plays end with score
The game got off to an exciting start as the
Cougars took the opening kickoff and, start-
ing from their own 20, moved to the 33-yard
line before the drive stalled. On fourth-and-9
the Cougars lined up to punt.
But the snap went to the up man, quarter-
back Gavin Tomberlin, who then pitched the
ball to punter Dylan Williams, who scooted
11 yards to pick up the first down.
I dont get to call (plays) much, Holden
said. We practice that stuff all the time, but
we dont punt much. I always tell my kids, I
want them to play aggressive and well call
(plays) aggressive.
No one was more nervous than me.
CARDINAL
Continued from page 11
Before the College Cup final, Indiana (18-1-
6) was the only team in the country without a
loss. The Hoosiers were denied their first unde-
feated season in program history and their
ninth national championship.
Our guys had a special year, Indiana
coach Todd Yeagley said. We often say the
best mark you can leave is putting a star on
your jersey and we came really close today.
But I do know this team will be talked about
SPORTS
With the first down
secured, the Cougars pro-
ceeded to move to the
Sutter 45 before
Tomberlin hit Jake Quosig
on a slant that he turned
into a 45-yard touchdown
and a 7-0 lead.
After forcing the
Huskies to punt on their
Gavin
first possession of the
Tomberlin
game, Sutter caught a
break when Hofmann fumbled the ball away
at his own 36, but the Cougars got the ball
right back two plays later when Jojo
Weinberger recovered a Sutter fumble at Half
Moon Bays 35.
Twelve plays later, the Cougars found the
end zone when Hofmann took a pitch and
swept around left side. He ran into two Sutter
defenders at about the 3-yard line and with
sheer grit and determination, Hofmann slid
over the top of one defender and stretched the
ball over the goal line to put the Cougars up
14-0 two plays into the second quarter.
HMB defense comes up big
After that, the Huskies got their offense in Sutter end. The Huskies started their second
gear. Going on first sound nearly every play,
Sutter pushed the pace and starting from its
own 20, methodically moved the ball down-
field. Fourteen plays later, the drive stalled at
the Half Moon Bay 6-yard line.
not only this year or next year but for many
years to come.
The Cardinal (19-2-2), who came into the
NCAA tournament as the No. 9 seed, is just the
second mens soccer program to win three
straight titles. Virginia, under former U.S.
national team coach Bruce Arena, won four in
a row from 1991 to 1994.
The Cardinal women won the national
championship last weekend, making
Stanford the first school to win both soccer
titles in the same season.
I dont think what it means to us and
what it means to the university and program
will sink in for a few weeks, said senior
defender Tomas Hilliard-Arce, a key part of
The Huskies lined up for a 23-yard field goal
attempt, but Hofmann burst through and
blocked to keep Sutter off the scoreboard.
The Cougars were forced to punt on their
next possession, but Williams and his punt
coverage team pinned the Huskies at the deep
with a 1:34 left in the half. Sutter quickly
moved the ball to the Half Moon Bay 30 and
with six seconds left in the half, the Huskies
went to a slick trick play one that saw the
quarterback Gavin Brown slyly hand the ball
off to Bryce Kunkle as Brown retreated as if
setting up a screen pass. As the Half Moon
Bay defense pursued past Kunkle, he took off
running. With blockers downfield, it appeared
the Huskies had it set up to score on the last
play of the half, but Kunkle was knocked out
of bounds at the 2 to end the half with the
Cougars up 14-0.
That was huge, Holden said. It would
have been a 7-point lead with them getting
the ball (to start the second half). At that time,
it was big.
Sutter doesnt quit
The third quarter got off to a sloppy start as
both teams fumbled the ball away deep in the
drive of the half at their own 4 and went three
and out. As the Huskies snapped the ball for a
punt, Von Almen came off the left side and got
a piece of the ball off the punters foot, with
the Cougars recovering at the Huskies 6. Two
all three mens championship teams.
Anchored by Hilliard-Arce and Indianas
Grant Lillard, both teams defenses limited
scoring chances and controlled the flow of
the game on a cold day at Talen Energy
Stadium, home of Major League Soccers
Philadelphia Union. Hilliard-Arce and Lillard
are finalists for the MAC Hermann Trophy,
given to college soccers best player, and
Hilliard-Arce is expected to be one of the top
picks in next months MLS draft after ending
his college career with three straight titles.
With the defenses playing clean and
organized soccer, the best first-half scoring
chance came 10 minutes into the game, but
Muse made a diving save on Stanfords
THE DAILY JOURNAL
plays later, Half Moon Bay increased its lead
to 21-0 as Hofmann carried a pair of defenders
into the end zone for a 4-yard score.
Sutter finally got on the board on its next
drive, going 80 yards on 11 plays, with Facey
scoring from 4 yards out.
Sutter did a good job of slowing the Cougars
in the second half, holding them to just four
first downs, but with the Huskies trying to
claw their way back into the game, the
Cougars iced it with a 10-play, 65-yard drive.
Like their first scoring drive, the Cougars
needed to convert on fourth down, with
Tomberlin finding Von Almen on a quick slant
for a 12-yard gain on fourth-and-6. Facing
third-and-goal at the 3, Tomberlin faked the
handoff to Hofmann and snuck around left end
for the final score of the game with 8:22 left.
Historic win
Both teams turned the ball over on downs
on their next possessions and as Sutter had
one last chance to score in the 2017 season,
the standing-room Half Moon Bay faithful
began chanting, HMB! HMB!
Holden was asked after the game if he ever
could have envisioned a Half Moon Bay team
playing for a state title.
No, Holden said, chuckling. I thought it
was a team with a bunch of good kids.
Theyve exceeded all expectations. Ive
enjoyed every bit of it. I can do this for one
more week.
Bryce Marion. The freshman goalie had
another big stop to keep the game scoreless
midway through the second half and
snagged a deep shot in overtime.
Muse, who posted an NCAA record 18
shutouts this year and led the country in goals-
against average, finished with five saves.
Before their run of titles began in 2015,
with U.S. national team forward and Seattle
Sounders star Jordan Morris leading the
way, the Cardinal had never won a mens
soccer championship.
The journeys been amazing, Gunn said.
Weve been fortunate enough with hard
work to be celebrating and standing at the
end of the season three times.

Tiger Town
Tigers legends
elected to HOF
By Ben Walker
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla.
Former Detroit Tigers teammates
Jack Morris and Alan Trammell
were elected to the baseball Hall of
Fame on Sunday, completing the
journey from Motown to
Cooperstown.
Morris, a big-game pitcher, and
Trammell, a star shortstop, were
picked by a 16-man Modern
Baseball Era committee that con-
sidered 10 candidates whose
biggest contributions came from
1970-87.
Morris got 14 votes and
Trammell drew 13, one more than
the minimum needed.
Theyll be enshrined on July 29.
Fitting that theyll go in together
they both began their big
league careers in 1977 with
Detroit, and played 13 seasons
alongside each other with the
Tigers.
Time has made this even more
special. Ive learned a lot along
the way, the 62-year-old Morris
said on a conference call.
Former catcher Ted Simmons fell
one vote short of election and for-
mer players union head Marvin
Miller was five shy of the 12 need-
ed for election.
A durable right-hander, Morris
posted 254 wins. His most famous
victory was a 10-inning shutout,
winning 1-0 for Minnesota over
Atlanta in Game 7 of the 1991
World Series.
No question it was my defining
moment in baseball, Morris said.
Ive never pitched a game where I
had better focus. I never had a neg-
ative thought, even though I was
in trouble several times.
Morris had a 3. 90 ERA, the
highest of any pitcher in the Hall.
He also won World Series in
Detroit with Trammell, in 1984
and Toronto in 1992.
Now 59, Trammell was a steady
presence in the middle of the dia-
mond while playing all 20 of his
seasons in Detroit.
Trammell was the 1984 World
Series MVP, hitting .450 as the
Tigers trounced San Diego in five
games and finished off a season in
which they started out 35-5.
A six-time All-Star and four-time
Gold Glover, Trammell scored
1,231 runs and drove in 1,003. He

batted .285 with 185 home runs
and a .352 on-base average he
walked 850 times and struck out
874.
Trammell never came close to
election during his 15 tries on the
Hall ballot in voting by Baseball
Writers Association of America
members. His best showing came
in his last year, when he got 40.9
percent in 2016.
Morris got a lot closer.
Starting at 22 percent in his
first Hall ballot appearance in
2000, Morris peaked at 67.7 per-
cent in 2003, falling 42 short. He
dropped to 61.5 percent four years
ago in his final time on the writ-
ers ballot, 78 votes shy.
Hall of Fame players George
Brett, Rod Carew, Dennis
Eckersley, Don Sutton, Dave
Winfield and Robin Yount were on
the panel that voted.
Steve Garvey, Tommy John,
Don Mattingly, Dale Murphy,
Dave Parker and Luis Tiant also
USA TODAY SPORTS
were on the ballot.
Miller, who headed the players
union from 1966-82 was on the
ballot for the seventh time.
Miller drew 44 percent in 2003
and 63 percent in 2007 when all
Hall of Famers could vote on the
veterans panel. After the Hall
downsized the committee, he got 3
of 12 votes in 2007, 7 of 12 in
2009 and 11 of 16 in 2010, one
fewer than the necessary 75 per-
cent. Four years ago, he was at
least six votes shy.
In 2008, four years before he
died, Miller sent a letter to the
BBWAA saying he didnt want to
be considered anymore.
The BBWAA annual vote on
players will be announced Jan. 24.
Chipper Jones, Jim Thome and
Omar Vizquel are among 19 first-
time candidates, and Trevor
Hoffman, Vladimir Guerrero,
Edgar Martinez, Roger Clemens
are Barry Bonds among the
holdovers.

Coco tops box office before Star Wars hits No bird in the stocking
By Lindsey Bahr
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES The animated family film Coco has
topped the box office for a third time on a quiet, pre Star
Wars: The Last Jedi weekend in theaters.
Disney estimated Sunday that Coco added $18.3 mil-
lion, which would bring its domestic total to $135.5 mil-
lion.
The weekends sole new wide release was the Morgan
Freeman film Just Getting Started, which launched to a
meager $3.2 million from 2,161 theaters and barely made
the top 10.
Most studios have chosen to avoid competing against
The Last Jedi, which is expected to dominate theaters
and moviegoer attention when it opens on Dec. 15.
Thus, most of the charts have looked quite similar for
the past few weeks. Warner Bros. and DCs Justice
League took second place with $9. 6 million and
Lionsgates sleeper hit Wonder, which has now passed
$100 million, placed third with $8.5 million. Warner
Bros. also crossed the $2 billion benchmark domestical-
ly Saturday the first studio to do so in 2017.
This quiet period before Star Wars has allowed some
of the indie and prestige titles to thrive in limited releas-
es and expansions, like James Francos The Disaster
Artist. The film, about the making of one of the worst
films of all time, The Room, expanded to 840 locations
in its second weekend in theaters. It managed to bring in
$6.4 million, landing it in fourth place.
Greta Gerwigs coming-of-age film Lady Bird also
added 363 locations and placed 9th in its sixth weekend
in theaters. With the $3.5 million from this weekend,
Lady Bird has netted $22.3 million.
The Guillermo del Toro-directed romantic fantasy The
Shape of Water expanded to 41 theaters in its second
weekend and earned $1.1 million.
The Tonya Harding biopic I, Tonya launched in four
locations in New York and Los Angeles and brought in a
solid $245,602.
The Winston Churchill film The Darkest Hour and the
TRANSIT
Continued from page 1
Because everybody has to line up in the same lane, I
think it really has slowed down the speeds, he said.
White said the one minor downside of the pilot hes expe-
rienced is a steady stream of cars going east along the hilly
road at rush hour, making it more difficult for him to turn left
onto Lonesome Pine Road, the street where he has lived for
more than 30 years. But White said he felt the city has been
sensitive to community concerns about the pilot as it has
taken shape, implementing measures such as speed bumps
on nearby Fernside Street when some complained it had
become a cut-through alternative after the Farm Hill
Boulevard changes.
But for resident Chris Lopez, who has lived on Lonesome
Pine Road for more than 40 years, difficulties with turning
on and off the street after the changes are more than a pass-
ing annoyance. He said its become increasingly difficult to
make turns on and off access streets like Eden Bower Lane
during peak commute times because of the single, steady
stream of cars after the changes. Lopez also isnt convinced
the road is any safer after the changes, noting cars havent
noticeably slowed down with the lane reduction and adding
that additional stop signs on the road would have better
accomplished the goal of slowing vehicles than removing a
lane did.
It just makes it harder for people to get in and out, he
said. You need to move a lot of vehicles at a slower pace,
not create congestion and restrict them.
Jessica Manzi, senior transportation manager with the
city, said balancing the congestion that accompanies meas-
ures to reduce speeds like those implemented in the Farm Hill

summer romance film Call Me By Your Name also con-
tinue to thrive in more limited releases as well. The
Darkest Hour, which stars Gary Oldman as Churchill,
earned $777,000 from 53 locations, and Call Me By
Your Name, with Armie Hammer and Timothee Chalamet,
took in $291,101 from nine theaters.
This is the best time to be a moviegoer if youre an
indie fan, said comScore senior media analyst Paul
Dergarabedian. The last few weeks have enabled films
like The Shape of Water, Three Billboards Outside
Ebbing, Missouri and now I, Tonya to really find an
audience.
He added: Its great time for those films ahead of the
box office death star that is Star Wars.
The year is still down 4 percent from last year, though,
which is a pit that even a juggernaut like Star Wars
might struggle to fill. The cash influx from The Last
Jedi will be significant, nonetheless, and if the prece-
dent of Rogue One and The Force Awakens holds, it
could range from $400 million to over $600 million of
additional domestic revenue before the books close on
2017.
Boulevard pilot is an ongoing project and officials will con-
tinue to assess its impact. Though Manzi said traffic vol-
umes increased on most city streets in recent years, she said
numbers have been up on alternatives to Farm Hill
Boulevard like Woodside and Edgewood roads, noting that
the pilots effect on those numbers was difficult to parse.
She noted an extensive evaluation of the pilot a year after it
began showed a reduction in the number of crashes and vehi-
cle speeds, as well as the potential for improved safety of
everyone traveling along the corridor.
Thats not to say that all the unsafe driving has gone
away, she said.
Manzi said tweaks to the
design of some intersections
with the major city thorough-
fare have been made based on
complaints from residents,
noting the corridors intersec-
tion with Highland Avenue as
one area of focus. Just east of
where the street becomes
Jefferson Avenue, the inter-
section has been adjusted so
the center turn lane is now an
acceleration lane allowing
facilitating merging from
Highland Avenue onto the
eastbound side of Jefferson
Avenue, and has been pegged
for future study and possible
improvements in a draft trans-
portation study the city pub-
lished this fall.
Manzi said a continued
effort to improve on the
changes implemented would

e all get plenty of emails selling us stuff, and this
time of year theres an obvious uptick in sales
pitches tied to the holidays. Last week, weirdly, I
received two about parrots and Christmas. The rst advertised
gifty paraphernalia emblazoned with sayings about the
crazy bird lady: Im the crazy parrot lady your mamma
warned you about tote-bags, one bird shy of being a crazy
bird lady car window decals. Not previously aware of crazy
bird lady phenomena, the delete button
did its job. Its the second email,
advertising parrots as an ideal holiday
gift, I want to discuss.
My list of lifes best moments is
long and full, and high on it is hours
spent on a balcony level with the tree
canopy of Costa Ricas cloud forest
watching a family of red-lored Amazon
parrots, a mom and a dad and their
youngster. That baby was as annoy-
ing, disrespectful and total feisty fun
as any adolescent human is to their parents. The beautiful
young bird kept ying off and then chased back to the roost
by what Im guessing were increasingly vexed but always
affectionate parents. They called to each other, ew in cir-
cles, preened with eyes closed in bliss. If it wasnt affection-
ate play, along with literal experimental stretching of the
wings, then I dont know what it was. But whatever it was, it
was amazing to see up close. Where they belong.
Parrots are smart, social and entirely dependent upon fami-
ly. In the wild, there are complex relationships between sib-
lings, cousins, elders and next generations. In captivity,
most parrots cycle through seven owners, struggling
almost always without success to nd a substitute for the
healthy family ties they need by their nature. So while I cant
say Im crazy about any live animal being touted as a gift
(bird lady crazy or otherwise), parrots make about the
worst choice possible. Want to add a pet to your family this
time of year? Great! Do it the right way, with planning and
commitment.

residents. Aimed at identifying transportation measures
needed across the city and compiling data on how residents
are using existing transportation options in the city, Manzi
said the study will help officials prioritize future transporta-
tion investments. She noted strategies such as increasing
the visibility of pedestrians at intersections like Emerald
Hill Road and Farm Hill Boulevard and further improvements
to the Highland Avenue intersection are among the projects
pegged for future study in the plan, which is expected to go
to the City Council for review in February.

On Saturday, Dec. 2, San Mateo Police Department personnel partnered with the San Mateo
Police Activities League and Target in Blue to bring holiday cheer to 14 deserving youth via
Shop with a Cop. Officers had a great time and reported it was heartwarming to watch the
kids on a holiday shopping spree with the Police Department. In addition to the grant, the
PAL Board, SMPD Records and Dispatch staff raised additional funds to make this experience
even more magical for the kids.To be chosen for this unique experience, all participants wrote

Taylor said he attended Redwood City

since the plan was created through the coun-
ty Board of Supervisors and state legisla-
tion, its expanded significantly.
With a range of programs to help disabled
seniors, children, the undocumented and oth-
ers who cant afford insurance but dont qual-
ify for federal subsidies, the health plan now
has nearly 150,000 members. Thats a sig-
nificant uptick from the 28,000 members
when it was created in 1987 and the estimat-
ed 50,000 who were enrolled about 12 years
ago when Altman took the helm.
A major factor was the Affordable Care
Acts expansion of Medi-Cal, Californias
version of federal Medicaid. The ACA and the
states open marketplace Covered California
helped bump San Mateo County into a near-
ly 96 percent rate of insured residents.
We have one of the lowest uninsured rates

The local health plan was the second coun-

state and one of the oldest in the nation. The
way it works is those who live in the county
and receive Medi-Cal are automatically
enrolled in the health plan, which functions
as an HMO. A critical facet of its success was
the fact that doctors helped advocate for its

The health plan is able to draw federal fund-
ing from the state and reimburse doctors in
their network who treat Medi-Cal patients.
Because the plan has steered more low-
income patients away from emergency
rooms and into preventative care, it proved
providing insurance ends up saving the gov-
ernment money. Since the plan has scored so
well, its actually able to reimburse doctors
at a higher rate than the state normally pays
due to those savings, Altman said.
Easy to use
For patients, it translates into more doc-
tors to chose from and an easier-to-use sys-
tem where they deal directly with administra-
tors imbedded in the community if insurance
issues arise, she said.
The member consumers dont have to
worry about all that. They just have one
place to call and we can help them navigate

Through its partnership, health plan
clients now have access to 1,100 primary

he said.
Library installation
Though Derek Wolfgram, the Redwood
City Public Library director, is keenly
aware of the logistics involved with mount-
ing a large book to a wall of what is cur-
rently a quiet reading space on the first-
floor room in the downtown library, he is
looking forward to seeing how residents
interact with the piece when it is installed.
Having hosted several of the workshops
and sesquicentennial events in the past
year, Wolfgram said hes enjoyed seeing
residents engage with their citys history,
adding that the proximity of historical
resources to the projects location is a nat-
ural fit.
I think theres a great fit for this piece in

Cal but are still considered low income. In
2006, it began offering CareAdvantage
which supports seniors and disabled adults
who are dually eligible for Medicare and
Medi-Cal. In 2009, the health plan began
partnering with the San Mateo County
Health System to administer a program for
low-income adults, including the undocu-
mented, who are not eligible for Medi-Cal or
other health insurance. Known as Access to
Care for Everyone, ACE enables patients to
use the health systems doctors and hospitals
either for free or for a modest copay. And
within the last few years, it has expanded
coordinated care programs, including the
Community Care Settings Program that
helps members transition from nursing facil-
ities back into their homes where they can
receive medical and social services.
Eshoos impact
U.S. Rep. Anna Eshoo, D-Palo Alto, was
serving on the San Mateo County Board of
Supervisors when she championed the health
plans formation in the 1980s.
It wasnt a walk in the park. Establishing
allow the Board of Supervisors to create the
nonprofit as well as a waiver from the federal
government to administer Medi-Cal, she
explained.
Eshoo credited the local medical communi-
ty that was joined at the hip with the coun-
ty as advocates for the health plans forma-
tion at a time when everything they were
doing was essentially new. Looking back,
its clear the foundation they created was
very much worthwhile, Eshoo said.
What I think is the best proof of the idea,
of the vision, of all the work that went into

that they get inspired about in looking at
the artwork right here.
As sesquicentennial committee co-chair
and a member of the citys Parks and Arts
Foundation, former mayor Barbara Pierce
said she is excited to see a piece that will
permanently commemorate the citys 150
years of history.
The goal was really to have some-
thing lasting and to celebrate the anniver-
sary, she said. We wanted it really to
reflect the residents and the city.
Pierce said the Parks and Arts Foundation
is looking into creating an iPad guide that
could accompany the piece with photos
from Taylors collection that did not make
it into the book as well as historical con-
text for some of the images.
Though Taylor will be busy in the weeks
to come, he is excited to work with the
many images and textures hes collected to
create a piece of art all members of the com-
munity can feel theyve had a hand in.
I really believe that a handmade work of
art carries the touch of the person who made
it, he said.
establishing it, is to see how much it has
succeeded, how many people are helped and
have been helped over now three decades,
thats a long time, Eshoo said, noting its
been a pinnacle of her career. That San
Mateo County was a county that distin-
guished itself not only in California but
across the country, that has always been a
source of enormous pride.
Preventative care
Contributing to the plans success was the
fact that directing people into preventative
care as opposed to being reliant on emer-
gency rooms is more cost effective. Having a
local entity manage the federally-funded
Medi-Cal insurance program ultimately
allowed the health plan to reimburse doctors
in higher amounts and in a more timely fash-
ion, she said.
With access to data about where the major-
ity of clients were located, it led to the estab-
lishment of community health centers in
areas with high numbers of residents visit-
ing emergency rooms.
Now, the health plan serves one out of
every five San Mateo County residents with
41 percent of clients 17 years or younger, 46
percent adults up to 64 years of age, and 13
percent seniors, according to the nonprofit.
Health care is profoundly personal. No
one comes into the world with a warranty
that nothing will happen to your body until
God decides to call you. So while we have
some of the highest levels of health care in
terms of technology and innovation, it does-
nt reach a lot people, Eshoo said, noting
the health plan shows that doesnt have to be
the case. It can be done, it is getting done
and it has been highly successful.

Notice of preparation (NOp) for an Environmental Document for the Bay Area Operations and Maintenance Activities pro-
posed by pacific Gas and Electric
Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) has filed an application for an Incidental Take Permit (ITP) under the California Endan-
gered Species Act (CESA) Section 2081 with the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW). The ITP would cover PG&Es
Bay Area Operations and Maintenance (O&M) Activities for natural gas pipelines and electric transmission and distribution lines
(proposed project) and establish a comprehensive approach to avoid and minimize impacts to covered species, as well as mitigate
for any impacts. O&M activities are expected to be performed primarily within PG&Es existing rights-of-way (ROWs) over the
course of the 30-year permit term. O&M activities for the proposed project would occur in nine San Francisco Bay Area counties:
Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, Napa, San Francisco, San Mateo, Santa Clara, Solano, and Sonoma.
As the lead agency under the California Environmental Quality Act, the CDFW will direct the preparation of an environmental docu-
ment pursuant to its certified regulatory program to assess the environmental effects of the ITP Application. The species to be cov-
ered by the 2081 ITP are the California tiger salamander and Alameda whipsnake, listed under CESA as threatened, and the Cali-
fornia freshwater shrimp, listed under CESA as endangered.
The purpose of the NOP is to inform recipients that the CDFW is beginning preparation of an environmental document for the pro-
posed project and to solicit information that will be helpful in the envi-ronmental review process. The full NOP is available on the
project website at: https://www.wildlife.ca.gov/notices
The CDFW will initially conduct 2 public Scoping Meetings. The purpose of the meetings is to present information about the pro-
posed project and the CDFWs decision-making processes, and to listen to the views of the public on the range of issues relevant
to the scope and content of the environmental document. The meetings will be held at the following locations:
Burlingame Recreation Center, Lounge II Mill Valley Community Center, Terrace Lounge
January 8, 2018 January 9, 2018
4:00 to 6:00 p.m. 4:30 to 6:30 p.m.
850 Burlingame Ave. 180 Camino Alto
Burlingame, CA 94010 Mill Valley, CA 94941
The CDFW is soliciting information regarding the topics and alternatives that should be included in the EIR. All comments for the
scoping period must be received by January 24, 2018.
You may submit comments in a variety of ways: (1) by U.S. mail, (2) by electronic mail, or (3) submitting comments at a Public
Scoping Meeting. All comments will be considered public unless otherwise requested.
By Mail: If you send comments by U.S. mail, please use first-class mail and be sure to include your name and a return address.
Please send written comments on the scope and content of the environmental document to:
Craig Weightman (CDFW Project Manager)
California Department of Fish and Wildlife
c/o Aspen Environmental Group
235 Montgomery Street, Suite 935
San Francisco, CA 94104-3002
By Electronic Mail: Email communications are encouraged; please remember to include your name and return address in the
email message. Email messages should be sent to bayareaitp@aspeneg.com
.
Internet Website Information about this application and the environmental review process will be posted on the Internet at the
CDFW website, https://www.wildlife.ca.gov/. This site will be used to post all public documents during the environmental review
process and to announce upcoming public meetings. In addition, a copy of the Draft environmental document will be posted at the
site after it is published.
