DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

In an effort to preserve the character of downtown San Carlos, the

City Council will consider imposing a stricter permitting process
on new chain stores compared to
mom-and-pop shops.
Councilman Cameron Johnson
has proposed that chain stores

works on permanent zoning

changes, according to a staff
report
by
Community
Development Director Al Savay.
With rents going up and new
ownership of some commercial
buildings downtown, there is
speculation that chain stores may
proliferate in the area.
The booming economy and
increased development interest

can lead to the displacement of

small businesses, Johnson said
Thursday. It would be a shame to
lose the character of downtown by
having Laurel Street become a
series of chain stores you can find
anywhere else.
A co n di t i o n al us e p ermi t
would require a public hearing
so residents can weigh in on
whether a chain store is appro-

priate for downtown.

Downtown should be a mix of
eclectic locally owned businesses,
Johnson said.
There is concern that a recently
bought building at 652 Laurel St.

may be overrun by chain stores.

Officials: High schoolers forced to leave
district, population still growing though

Devon Casazza, bottom right, enjoys a meal along with his teacher David Goff, upper right, during lunch at Taylor
Middle School in Millbrae.

Families forced to move elsewhere due to the local housing crisis are pulling their students from
local high schools, according to
school officials who attribute a
declining enrollment rate to the
escalating cost of living in San
Mateo County.
James Lianides, superintendent
of the Sequoia Union High School
District, told the school board during a meeting Wednesday, Nov.
11, the considerable expense of
living locally has caused enrollment rates to slow at Sequoia and
Woodside high schools.
He said enrollment has declined
most notably in students coming

from parts of Redwood City where

many apartment buildings are
located, and property owners have
been known to significantly
increase rents, pushing tenants
who cannot afford the sudden rate
hikes to move.
We are finding that families
need to leave because of housing,
said Lianides.
Despite dips in enrollment coming from certain areas of the district, the student population has
continued to grow, said Lianides,
but at rates lower than have been
projected by previous demographics studies.
He said officials have been
caught off guard by enrollment

Feeding a passion for education Shoreline protection work

Millbrae lunch program focuses on fresh, quality ingredients
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

The days of boring, bland and

unhealthy school lunches are over
in Millbrae, as students are dining
on more locally sourced, fresh
meat, vegetables and ingredients
under a new meal program introduced this year.
California Thursdays is an initiative offered by Millbrae
Elementary School District officials which aims to provide better,
healthier and more creative lunches served at school to invigorate
student interest in what makes a

meal and where the food comes

from, among other health and education benefits.
Students gathered at tables in the
Taylor Middle School gymnasium
during lunch hour Thursday, Nov.
19, surrounded by friends, classmates, parents and teachers who
came together to
eat
a
Thanksgiving-inspired lunch of
carved turkey slathered in gravy,
with mashed potatoes and a side of
baked butternut squash sitting on a
bed of fresh greens.
Today is good, said Cameron
Young, an eighth-grader at Taylor.
It matches the season and the hol-

iday.
Young sat with his group of
rowdy friends, some eating meals
served by the school and others
brought food from home, while
accompanied by his father Guy.
Ducking the occasional flying
green grape tossed by the adolescents, Guy Young espoused the
value of having a rare opportunity
to enjoy a quality school lunch
alongside his son.
This is awesome, said Guy
Young. When the parents are
allowed, Ill be here.

Construction project to combat erosion
By Samantha Weigel
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

A collaborative effort to deter

coastal erosion, combat sea level
rise and protect Highway 1 near
the popular Surfers Beach in Half
Moon Bay is well underway as
Caltrans will begin long-awaited
construction on a shoreline protection project Monday.
The city of Half Moon Bay, the
San Mateo County Board of
Supervisors and the state seek to

protect the heavily-used corridor

by repairing the seawall and
pedestrian path at the beach just
south of Pillar Point Harbor.
Caltrans predicted the bluffs are
eroding by nearly 1.5 feet a year
and, while the upcoming construction will slow the natural process,
its only a temporary measure.
Construction is anticipated to last
until January as Caltrans repairs

This marked a fourth year that a bear

In 2015, there were 76 incidents,

Startup Weekend nurtures eager entrepreneurs

Police reports

Draper University hosts 54-hour event in downtown San Mateo

Didnt pack his heat

By Samantha Weigel
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Nearly 100 aspiring entrepreneurs are

expected to spend the next 54 hours in a
crash course on what it takes to kick off a
startup during an event hosted the innovative Draper University of Heroes.
The boarding school in downtown San
Mateo will host its first Startup Weekend
an event held throughout the world during
which attendees pitch an idea and learn if
its a stellar businesses concept or a ditchit-quick flop.
The event begins 5 p.m. at Hero City, part
of venture capitalist Tim Drapers school for
eager entrepreneurs on Third Avenue.
Startup Weekend is a sort of hackathon
meets business development educational
experience for those who think they might
have what it takes to build a company, said
Brett Noyes, director of partnerships at
Hero City.
Its a unique opportunity because its a
good place to evaluate your idea to see
whether its good or bad, Noyes said. In
general, we want people to be somewhat
uncomfortable. We want them to push their
limitations. Its like a business planning
competition and a hackathon put together.
In just two and a half days, the attendees
will experience the highs, lows and pressure
of what it takes to make it in the startup
world. Designers, developers, programmers, marketers and enthusiasts will collide
as they discuss ideas, create teams and
attempt to launch startups, according to
Startup Weekends website.
Ideas will float to the surface with the
events kickoff Friday evening when attendees have about a minute to pitch to the
crowd. The ideas at Startup Weekend range
from a broad concept to a tactile prototype,

September.

and Noyes said attendees will decide what

proceeds.
Depending on how many people show,
the crowds favorite five to 10 pitchers will
form teams with the remaining attendees
and spend the next few days refining and
defining their startups, said Noman Arif, coorganizer of the event.
They can expect to learn a technique or
two, learn new skills, meet some great people and great mentors from the industry who
can actually guide them, Arif said. They
can expect therell be a hell of a learning
curve. Theyll learn how they can organize
themselves with people they just met literally an hour ago and how to make an idea go
from step zero all the way to a presentable
level.
Although its not a sleepover event, participants will decide when to go or stay and
work. Thought leaders, industry experts and
successful entrepreneurs will be on hand to
help nurture the teams by offering inspiration and guidance.
Saturday and Sunday will be spent developing a minimum viable product with the
help of mentors and of course, some good
old-fashioned footwork. Participants will
be encouraged to hit the streets and do their
own market analysis by talking to everyday
folk walking around San Mateo. Ultimately,
sometimes finding out an idea isnt worth
quitting your job over or taking out a loan
can be one of the most valuable things to
come out of the event, Noyes said.
But for those who do have profitable or
innovative idea, the weekend offers an
opportunity to collaborate with people
from a variety of backgrounds on refining a
proposal, creating a prototype, conducting
market research then striving to win over a
panel of judges.
The judges favorite will get three months

The median sales price was $407,500, up
0.6 percent from $405,000 in September
and up 5.6 percent from $386,000 a year
earlier. It was the 44th straight month that
prices rose from a year earlier but below a
nearly eight-year high of $415,000 reached
during the summer.
Supplies remained tight, keeping a lid on
sales. The California Association of
Realtors said there was a 3.7-month supply
of unsold single-family homes, far below
what is considered a normal supply of five
to seven months. The San Francisco Bay
area had a 2.5-month supply.

startup truly take off, Arif said.
Its like a high-speed car chase if you
think about it; people are going full force,
Arif said. Instead of the idea dying down
after the weekend, we try to encourage people to work on it and ultimately do it
through these private incubator spaces.
Arif and Noyes agreed Draper University
serves as an ideal venue to host a Startup
Weekend.
The school that offers a seven-week program nurturing up-and-coming entrepreneurs was recently featured on ABC Familys
reality show Startup U. Noyes said the event
also gives potential future Draper
University students an opportunity to check
out what the campus has to offer and consider enrolling.
Were generally interested in working
with organizations that are supporting
entrepreneurs whether its Startup

inspire entrepreneurs and give them

Pimp arrested in
human trafficking sting
An undercover anti-human trafficking
operation conducted by the San Mateo
County Sheriffs Office
led to the arrest of a 24year-old man for pimping.
Brandon
Sena,
a
Sacramento resident, was
arrested Thursday, Nov.
12, after a 10-hour sting
that led law enforcement
to a Millbrae hotel.
Brandon Sena Deputies solicited acts of
prostitution via the Internet in the hopes of
locating victims of human trafficking,
according to the Sheriffs Office.
Sena, the primary suspect, as well as three
prostitutes were arrested as a result of the
sting. Sena was on probation and has a
lengthy criminal history for robbery, participating in a criminal street gang, felony
assault with a firearm and shooting into an
inhabited dwelling, according to the
Sheriffs Office.

Police investigate
early Sunday robbery
South San Francisco police are investigating an armed robbery that occurred this past
weekend.
Officers responded at 12:45 a.m. Sunday to
the 100 block of Produce Avenue and learned
a man was approached by three suspects who
ordered him to exit his vehicle.
After the victim exited his vehicle, one of
the suspects placed a sharp object against the
victims side and demanded money, police
said.
When the victim tried to resist, one of the
suspects punched him in the face, causing
minor injuries, police said.
The suspects robbed the victim of an undisclosed amount of cash and then fled the area.
The first suspect was described as a black
man in his mid 20s who is about 6 feet 2
inches tall with a stocky build and a gold

grill on the upper row of his teeth. He was

wearing a black baseball cap with white SF
letters on the front, a black long-sleeved
shirt, black jeans and orange or yellow
Timberland boots, police said.
The second suspect was described as a
black man in his mid 20s who is 5 feet 7
inches tall with an average build and was
clean-shaven. He was wearing a black baseball cap with a flashy silver design on the
front, a black long-sleeved shirt and black
sagging jeans, according to police.

Hispanic male in his teens who is about 5
feet 5 inches tall with a young face and a
medium to dark complexion. He was wearing
an unbuttoned black sweater, a black shirt
with a Mexican flag printed on the front and
a Mexican eagle emblem imprinted on the
middle of the shirt, police said.

S.F. college president

drops sugary drink contract
SAN FRANCISCO The president of San
Francisco State University is dropping plans
to pursue a pouring rights contract with
soda companies such as Coca-Cola or Pepsi.
President Les Wong said in a statement
Thursday that he ended discussions after
hearing from students and staff who objected
to the idea of a beverage partnership.
The rights would have allowed a chosen
company to sell all fountain drinks at San
Francisco State University residence halls
and sporting events, as well as stock
machines and campus stores.
Opponents of sugar-sweetened beverages
said that university officials should not jeopardize students health by promoting such
unhealthy drinks.
They say the drinks add empty calories and
can contribute to obesity and rotting teeth.
Wong said he will pursue other ways to
bring additional revenue to the university.

Study finds more Mexicans

Obama refugee argument

fails as Democrats desert
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MANILA, Philippines As anxiety

about Syrian refugees entering the U.S.
took hold this week, President Barack
Obama was having none of it. Halfway
across the globe, he scolded politicians
questioning his plan to take in 10,000
Syrians in light of the Paris attacks, dismissing them as fear-mongers scoring
political points.
Obamas dressing down was biting, passionate and quotable. It was also risky.
Justified or not, fears of terrorism spreading from the war-ravaged Middle East to
U.S. shores are not limited to the presidents political opponents. What to some
was a skillful takedown of a dangerous

House votes to curb Syrian

refugees, snubbing veto threat
WASHINGTON Responding swiftly to
the terror in Paris, the U.S. House voted
overwhelmingly Thursday to erect high hurdles for Syrian and Iraqi refugees coming to
American shores, dividing the presidents
own party as lawmakers reflected the anxiety of voters back home.
The vote was 289-137, enough to override
a threatened White House veto of the legislation, which was hurriedly drafted in
response to the carnage in the streets of
Paris. Forty-seven Democrats voted for the
bill, despite President Barack Obamas biting criticism of its proposed limits.
The bill would require new FBI background

canard could also be viewed as a flip dismissal of legitimate and widespread anxiety
Apparently, theyre scared of widows and
orphans coming into the United States of
America, Obama said, in a dig aimed at
Republicans.
But many Democrats werent buying what
he said. In a major embarrassment for
Obama, 47 Democrats abandoned the lameduck president Thursday as the House
approved fresh barriers for Syrian and Iraqi
refugees trying to enter the United States.
Democrats complained that top administration officials who were sent to Capitol
Hill to calm fears had failed make a convincing argument.

high-ranking U. S. officials before any
refugee could come to the U.S. from Iraq or
Syria, where the Islamic State group that has
claimed credit for the attacks has flourished.
Republicans said it was simply prudent to
place new controls on the refugee system,
without ending it entirely or requiring religious tests as some in the GOP, including
presidential candidates, have demanded.
This is an urgent matter and that is why
were dealing with this urgently, declared
new House Speaker Paul Ryan of Wisconsin.
It just is common sense that we pause, reevaluate and make sure that we have the
proper standards in place to make sure something like what happened in Paris doesnt
happen here.

SAN DIEGO More Mexicans are leaving than moving into the United States,
reversing the flow of a half-century of mass
migration, according to a study published
Thursday.
The Pew Research Center found that
slightly more than 1 million Mexicans and
their families, including American-born
children, left the U.S. for Mexico from 2009
to 2014. During the same five years,
870,000 Mexicans came to the U.S., resulting in a net flow to Mexico of 140,000.
The desire to reunite families is the main
reason more Mexicans are moving south
than north, Pew found. The sluggish U.S.
economic recovery and tougher border
enforcement are other key factors.
The era of mass migration from Mexico is
at an end, declared Mark Hugo Lopez,
Pews director of Hispanic research.

The finding follows a Pew study in 2012

that found net migration between the two
countries was near zero, so this represents a
turning point in one of the largest mass
migrations in U.S. history. More than 16
million Mexicans moved to the United
States from 1965 to 2015, more than from
any other country.
This is something that weve seen coming, Lopez said. Its been almost 10 years
that migration from Mexico has really
slowed down.
The findings counter the narrative of an
out-of-control border that has figured
prominently in U. S. presidential campaigns, with Republican Donald Trump calling for Mexico pay for a fence to run the
entire length of the 1,954-mile frontier.
Pew said there were 11.7 million Mexicans
living in the U.S. last year, down from a
peak of 12.8 million in 2007. That includes
5.6 million living in the U.S. illegally,
down from 6.9 million in 2007.

Palestinian attacks in Tel Aviv

and West Bank, leave five dead B
By Tia Goldberg

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

JERUSALEM A pair of stabbing and

shooting attacks carried out by Palestinians
killed five people Thursday three Israelis,
a Palestinian and an American in one of
the deadliest days yet in a two month-long
outburst of Israeli-Palestinian violence.
The attacks are part of wave of violence
that erupted in mid-September over tensions
surrounding a Jerusalem holy site sacred to
both Jews and Muslims. Palestinians accuse
Israel of plotting to take over the hilltop
compound known to Jews as the Temple
Mount and to Muslims at the Noble Sanctuary
something Israel vehemently denies.
The Palestinians say the violence is rooted
in frustration at decades of living under
Israeli occupation. Israel accuses Palestinian
leaders of inciting the unrest.
The violence was initially confined to
Jerusalem and gradually spread deeper into
Israel, the West Bank and the Gaza Strip.

Merkel: Solution to refugee

crisis at EUs exterior borders
BERLIN Europes migrant crisis will be
resolved at the EUs exterior border and
beyond, German Chancellor Angela Merkel
and her Austrian counterpart said Thursday.
Merkel, speaking alongside Austrian
Chancellor Werner Faymann, said Europe
needed to move faster with hotspots in
Greece where refugees and other migrants can
be registered, then fairly distributed around
Europe or sent directly back home if their
case for asylum does not meet the criteria.

In Thursdays first attack, a knife-wielding

man stabbed and killed two Israelis as several of them gathered for afternoon prayers on
the second floor of an office building in the
Israeli commercial center of Tel Aviv.
Shimon Vaknin, a witness, told reporters he
saw a bloodied man stumble into the room
where he prayed with companions.
He was all slashed and bloody. We were in
shock, Vaknin said. We didnt know what
happened and then someone near the door
shouted: theres a terrorist.
He described a dramatic standoff, with worshippers standing against the closed shop
door as the assailant tried to force his way in.
Israeli media showed footage of a blood-spattered floor littered with plastic gloves.
Police spokeswoman Luba Samri said the
attacker was apprehended by onlookers. She
identified him as Raed Khalil bin Mahmoud,
a 36-year-old Palestinian father of five from
the West Bank village of Dura, near the West
Bank city of Hebron, a frequent flashpoint
for violence.

Around the world

On the topic of refugees, there will be no
solution when its about reduction, when its
about order, when its about controls, or
when its about legalization on the GermanAustrian border, she said. This has to be on
the exterior borders of the European Union.
Germany has seen more migrants this year
than any other European nation, with some
758,000 registered as arriving through
October, and is struggling to keep up with
the flow.

OPINION

THE DAILY JOURNAL

Many questions with wage hike proposal

o one can argue about the ever-rising cost of living in San Mateo
County and its impact on those
who are of lower incomes. Rent is high,
and getting higher, and everyday services
are also climbing to an unreachable point.
If we are to retain a semblance of our working class that largely built this area in the
last century, then it is incumbent upon us
to explore solutions.
The states minimum wage is $9 an hour,
which might be able to carry some in other
more affordable areas of the state, but even
state ofcials are taking earnest legislative
steps to raise that amount up to $15 an
hour though it is set to rise to $10 an
hour at the beginning of 2016. In San
Mateo, city ofcials are exploring the real
possibility of hiking the minimum wage to
$15 to help address the rising cost of living and assist those at the lower economic
scale. The discussion is good, but there
needs to be a full analysis and input from
every sector of the community. Though
city ofcials are aiming for possible discussion and implementation in 2016, there
are some questions that need to be
answered.
First, who exactly are this areas proletarians? Are they the laborers who sometimes get paid under the table? Are they the
service providers like home health care
workers or preschool teachers? Restaurant
workers? Small business owners who provide goods and services to those in the
lower economic strata? If yes to all, then
there needs to be analysis of the impact to
the businesses that provide these services
along with those who work for them.
While a more than 50 percent hike in pay

Editorial
may seem like a tremendous benet to the
citys low-income workers, there are side
impacts that need exploration as well. Will
any increase be staggered over time to
ensure the impact is not too great? Will an
increase to some workers making the minimum wage cause strife with those who
achieved a $15 hourly pay rate over time,
and would they then ask for a higher pay to
reect their previous level? Would certain
businesses be forced to cut staff or hours to
accommodate the new rates? Would there be
exemptions for certain types or sizes of
businesses and would that have an impact
on the level of service they provide or their
ability to attract and retain workers?
Then there is the question: from who
exactly is this higher wage being extracted? There have been new businesses coming into San Mateo and with them come
new workers. That has led to more competition for resources, most notably housing.
However, many of these new businesses,
particularly in the high-tech eld, already
pay much higher than minimum wage so
the impact would squarely hit retail and
service businesses that may have no other
choice but to pass on the cost to its customers. That could mean the neighborhood
preschool may have to cut staff, or the
beloved corner grocery store in a lowincome or moderate-income area may have
to raise prices for the community it serves.
There has already been anecdotal information about just that happening in San
Francisco, which is raising its minimum

wage in staggered amounts to $15 an hour

by 2018 through a 2014 voter initiative.
However, it could also mean that largescale retail stores might be able to retain
workers by paying them a livable wage.
While many point to the economic turnaround as the reason for the higher cost of
living, the turnaround is not as widespread
as some may perceive. Wage stagnation is
a nationwide trend, and the theories as to
its prominence are many. However, one
theory is that there is still worry about the
recovery and the next downturn, which is
causing many to be frugal with the pay of
their workers. Additionally, there should be
some awareness that an eventual economic
downturn will also have an effect on the
success of any measure taken by the city
and affect businesses who may struggle
with a reduced economic environment.
The city has addressed some of these
questions as part of the initial discussion,
and due diligence will mean eshing out
some of the data through further investigation among stakeholder groups before any
action. The City Council appears to be
keenly interested in moving forward with
this discussion and it will likely return
after the rst of the year. In the meantime,
it is critical for those who have questions
or concerns to share them with others,
most notably city ofcials, so that those
can be folded into any further discussion. A
city as large as San Mateo is no place for
an experiment, and any action, however
warranted by the escalating cost of living
here, must be taken with the entire community in mind and with a full understanding
of any actions impacts.

Editor,
I am a longtime resident of Pacica for
33 years and my roots in Pacica are deeply
implanted. My parents met at Cabrillo
School, then continued onto Terra Nova
High School. Soon after that they got married and had my two brothers and me.
In the last two months, we have all decided we have to move out of Pacica due to
the rising costs of home ownership and
rent. Does it make me sad to leave my
home town behind? Absolutely. The residents of Pacica are some of the most caring, compassionate people, especially in
time of need. Of course there is not much
we can do to prevent out-of-towners from
ocking to our beautiful beaches to escape
the hot weather inland. However, something needs to be done to address the continued hike in rent on the few properties
that are available. I ask that the City
Council review this issue and brainstorm
ideas on which can potentially keep the
Pacica spirit alive. The forecast seems
that the current residents are being run out
by investors who are purchasing homes
outright with cash. What will that do for

is at risk of falling 1.1 million college graduates short of workplace
needs by 2030. If the Public Policy Institute

implications are broader than a shortage of

almost certainly would include a widening
income gap between skilled and unskilled
workers, high-paying employers leaving

Stocks that moved substantially or traded heavily Thursday on the New

The electronics retailer reported disappointing quarterly sales and issued
a cautious outlook for the key holiday shopping season.
UnitedHealth Group Inc., down $6.62 to $110.63
The health insurer cut its 2015 earnings forecast citing hits it expects to

U.S. stocks closed slightly lower

Thursday after spending much of the day
wavering between small gains and losses.
Several companies reported earnings
and outlooks that offered a mixed picture
of the economy for investors.
Health care stocks were among the
biggest decliners, dragged down after
UnitedHealth Group cut its full-year
earnings forecast. The nations largest
health insurer also raised doubts about
whether it will continue to participate in
a key piece of the Affordable Care Act.
Traders felt a bit better about payments company Square and online dating site operator Match Group. Both
soared on their first day of trading.
In the absence of major economic
news, investors honed in on the uneven
company earnings and outlooks.
Thats why we are largely without a
lot of vigor in either direction today,
said Eric Wiegand, senior portfolio
manager at U.S. Bank Wealth
Management.
All told, the Dow Jones industrial
average fell 4.41 points, or 0.02 percent, to 17,732.75. The Standard &
Poors 500 index slipped 2.34 points,
or 0.1 percent, to 2,081.24. The Nasdaq
composite lost 1.56 points, or 0.03

percent, to 5,073.64.
Stocks got off to a plodding start
early Thursday, spending much of the
morning hovering close to the levels
from a day earlier, when the S&P 500
index posted its biggest gain in four
weeks.
The Labor Departments latest weekly
tally of unemployment benefit applications provided some good, if expected,
insight into the job market.
Applications for unemployment aid
dropped last week to a seasonally adjusted 271,000. The four-week average, a
less volatile measure, increased 3,000
to 270,750.
Beyond that, investors focused on the
latest string of company earnings.
Best Buy dropped 2.1 percent after
releasing disappointing sales and a cautious outlook for the holiday shopping
season. The stock slipped 66 cents to
$30.67.
UnitedHealth Group fell 5.6 percent
after it cut its 2015 earnings forecast
and said it would pull back on the marketing of its exchange business a few
weeks after open enrollment for that
coverage began nationwide.
The insurer also said that it will decide
in the first half of next year to what
extent it can continue to serve the public health insurance exchange markets
in 2017. The stock lost $6.62 to

VW has only a few costly options to fix polluting diesels

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

DETROIT When Volkswagen submits a plan to fix emissions-cheating

diesel engines on Friday, it will have
only two options for most of the cars.
It can install a bigger exhaust system to trap harmful nitrogen oxide, or
it can retrofit a chemical treatment
process that cuts pollution.

The bigger exhaust will likely hurt

performance and gas mileage, angering car owners.
But the chemical treatment, while
saving acceleration and mileage, needs
a clumsy storage tank and multiple
hardware changes to work.
In either case, almost a half-million
cars would have to be recalled for the
repairs.

Experts say both options will be

expensive, perhaps so costly that it
will be cheaper to buy back some of
the older models.
I think they know right now how to
do the fix, said Alan Baum, a consultant in Detroit who advises automakers
on fuel-economy regulations. The

Business briefs
Squares stock soars 45
percent in first day of trading
SAN FRANCISCO Square bounced back in its stock market debut Thursday after the once-hot mobile payments service slashed the price of its initial public offering to get the
deal done.
The 6-year-old companys shares gained $4.07, or 45 percent, to close at $13.07. The surge helped ease the pain of a
mortifying markdown in Squares IPO price. The San
Francisco company sold 25.7 million shares at $9 apiece
after money managers leery of Squares unprofitable history
refused to pay $11 to $13.
The concession appeared to attract bargain hunters betting
that Square is worth the price that its management team had
been demanding in the IPO. Even with Thursdays rally,
Squares stock remains below the $15.46-per-share price that
the company fetched a year ago when it raised $180 million
as a privately held startup.

Intel rises following

revenue forecast, dividend boost
NEW YORK Intel stock climbed Thursday after the chipmaker said it expects its revenue to grow again next year and
raised its quarterly dividend.
Shares of Intel Corp. advanced $1.14, or 3.4 percent, to
$34.30. That was their biggest gain since early September.
Intel was the biggest gainer among Dow Jones industrial
average stocks, as the Dow finished the day slightly slower.
Intel said it expects its annual revenue to rise by a percentage in the mid-single digits. Thats similar to analyst projections and it represents an improvement from 2015, as Intel
expects its revenue to fall about 1 percent this year. The company also said it will boost its capital spending to $10 billion next year, far above its estimate of $7.3 billion in 2015.

Starboard urges Yahoo to

drop its spinoff of Alibaba stake
NEW YORK Activist investor Starboard is pushing
Yahoo to abandon the planned spinoff of its valuable stake in
Chinese e-commerce company Alibaba and sell its Internet
search and advertising business instead.
In a letter to the company, New York-based Starboard says
that a better deal would be to sell its search and advertising
business because executives havent been able to turn the
business around. Its a reverse in thinking by Starboard
which previously wanted the company to spin off the
Alibaba stake.

LOS ANGELES Stephen Curry scored 40

points and the Golden State Warriors rallied
from a 23-point, first-half deficit to beat the
Los Angeles Clippers 124-117 Thursday
night for their 13th consecutive victory to
start the season.
Klay Thompson added 25 points, Harrison
Barnes had 21 and Draymond Green 19 for
the Warriors, one of four teams in NBA history to open 13-0. The defending champions
improved to 6-0 on the road.
Chris Paul scored a season-high 35
points, including 18 while igniting the
Clippers in the opening quarter after missing two games with a sore right groin. Blake
Griffin added 27 points and Jamal Crawford
had 15.
The Warriors closed on a 25-8 run, taking
their first lead since Currys 3-pointer began
the game. He sat down with two early fouls
in the first quarter.
Thompson hit a 3 for a 113-112 lead in the
fourth. Crawfords 3-pointer provided the
Clippers last lead of 115-113. From there,
Curry hit a 3, Green scored on a cutting layup
and then Curry made four straight free throws
for a 122-115 advantage.
Down by 10 in the fourth quarter, Golden
State finished 8 for 9 from beyond the arc in
the final period and completed the biggest
comeback in the NBA this season.
The Warriors pulled to 96-95 on a 3-pointer by Barnes in the fourth before DeAndre
Jordan got fouled and made both free throws.
He followed with an alley-oop dunk off
Pauls pass near the Warriors bench, and
Josh Smith capped the 6-0 run with a onehanded slam after Currys turnover for a 10295 lead.
Both teams began firing up 3s. Paul Pierce
followed Pauls 3 from the left corner with
one of his own that stretched the Clippers
lead to 112-102 in their last scoring burst of
the game. Andre Iguodala hit a pair that left
Golden State trailing 112-110.
Golden State cut its deficit to 83-76 late in
the third, outscoring Los Angeles 22-11 on a
combined 16 points by Curry and Green.

One goal enough; Sharks win fourth in a row

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

PHILADELPHIA Melker Karlsson and

the San Jose Sharks are feeling right at
home on the road.
Karlsson scored 3:45 into overtime and
Martin Jones made 34 saves in his third
shutout of the season, giving San Jose a 10 victory over the Philadelphia Flyers on
Thursday night.
Joonas Donskoi set up the game-winner
on a 2-on-1 with Karlsson, who took the
cross-ice pass and shot high past goalie
Steve Mason. Paul Martin also was credited
with an assist.
He chipped it over to me and I dont
know, Karlsson said. I think it almost
rolled over my blade, but I was lucky it went
in.
It was the fifth straight road win for the
Sharks, who improved to 4-0 on their sixgame road trip and 8-3 away from home this
season. San Jose has won each game by one
goal during its road winning streak.
We needed a good road trip, coach Peter
DeBoer said. We talked about that, taking

Sharks 1, Flyers 0
it one game at a time and trying to squeeze
out wins. We werent in a great spot after our
homestand. To our guys credit, it was a little bit of a gut check and were finding a way
here.
It also was the 13th win in 14 games for
San Jose against the Flyers, and the Sharks
eighth straight victory in Philadelphia. The
Flyers last defeated the Sharks at home on
Dec. 21, 2000.
Over 82 games you have to win all kinds
of different ways, DeBoer said. Tonight
was a goalie win for us. You have to get
timely contributions at different points
from everybody. (Jones) was our best guy
tonight.
Philadelphia dropped its sixth in a row at
home, matching its longest skid since April
2011.
Still, coach Dave Hakstol focused on the
positive aspect of his teams play.
I think we put together another pretty
complete performance out there again, he

said. We were the better team I thought for

the last 40, 44 minutes of this hockey
game. I thought we were a little bit quicker
and did things pretty well during that time
frame, so Im going to take that and keep
building.
The Sharks began overtime with a 4-on-3
power play for 1 minute, 42 seconds, after
Philadelphias Wayne Simmonds was whistled for tripping late in the third period.
Patrick Marleau, one point from 1,000 in
his career, had an opportunity for the gamewinner 1:20 into the extra period, but
Mason denied him from close range.
Jakub Voracek broke free for the Flyers a
minute later, but his wrist shot from the slot
on a near breakaway was turned aside by
Jones.
Weve got to find a way to be better,
Voracek said in trying to explain
Philadelphias offensive struggles. I have
no answer. If we knew, we would work on it.
I cant tell you why we dont score a goal.
It was a defensive struggle for 60 minutes
in regulation.
Philadelphias best chance in the third

period came with 2 1/2 minutes left when

Voraceks attempt from right in front of the
crease was stopped by Jones. But neither
team generated much else in the way of quality chances.
The Sharks outshot Philadelphia 10-6 in
the first period. San Joses Justin Braun had
one of the best chances with 14 minutes
left, but his backhand try from close range
was stopped by Mason.
The Flyers picked up their offense in the
second, outshooting San Jose 15-5.
Perhaps Philadelphias best opportunity
came when Brayden Schenns slap shot with
9:04 left was gloved by Jones.
NOTES: Mason made 20 saves. ... The
teams meet for the second and final time during the regular season on Dec. 30 in San
Jose. ... Philadelphias last home win came
Oct. 24 against the Rangers. ... Flyers D
Evgeny Medvedev was a healthy scratch for
the third straight game. ... Mason dropped
to 6-9-2 against San Jose, while Jones
earned the win in his first career game
against the Flyers.

Former Cal player prepares for Big Game with Stanford

By Josh Dubow
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

STANFORD After spending his first

four years at California, defensive lineman
Brennan Scarlett will finally get his chance
to play in the Big Game.
The twist? It will come in a Stanford uniform instead of with the Golden Bears.
After an injury-plagued career at Cal,
Scarlett moved across the bay to the Bears
biggest rival this spring as a graduate transfer and will play for the 15th-ranked
Cardinal (8-2, 7-1 Pac-12, No. 11 CFP)
against Cal (6-4, 3-4) in the Big Game on
Saturday.
Im definitely very excited, Scarlett
said. Im looking forward to getting out
there and playing my alma mater. It will be
a great experience.
Scarlett is one of a handful of players to
play football at both schools. Most of
those came around World War II when sever-

al players who were in

Berkeley for a Navy
training program played
for Cal and then went to
Stanford after the war.
The last transfer between
the two schools before
Scarlett was Dale Rubin,
who played for Cal in
1962 and then with the
Brennan
Cardinal in 1964-65.
Scarlett
That makes for a
slightly awkward situation this week.
Im just going to talk about our players,
Cal coach Sonny Dykes said. Brennan was
a good kid, good player, a good student.
Other than that, I dont have too much to
say about it.
Scarlett said he is still close to many of
his former teammates at Cal and keeps in
touch frequently with many of them. He
traded texts during the week and looks forward to some friendly banter on the field

Saturday.
Were good friends, he said. The relationships run deeper than just the colors and
the jerseys on our backs.
While Scarlett knows many of the players
and coaches at Cal, Stanford coach David
Shaw said he is not tapping him for any
inside information this week. Shaw said he
has never asked Scarlett anything about
what the Bears do and doesnt plan to this
week either.
I dont believe in that. I dont condone
it, Shaw said. We do what we do, they do
what they do and I think well have a heck of
a game.
Scarlett played just 17 games over four
years at Cal as he was hampered by knee and
hand injuries. After tearing his ACL last season, Scarlett said he began to think more
about his post-football future and decided
that transferring for a graduate program was
in his best interest.
Scarlett looked at USC and Notre Dame

but quickly settled on Stanford, where his

brother Cameron was about to enter as a
freshman and where he could complete a
one-year masters
degree in
the
Management Science and Engineering program.
When I got hurt last year, it was a wakeup call as far as football isnt something
that will last forever, Scarlett said. I realized the mental side and the academic and
your earnings is what really sticks with
you. I looked into a masters program and
what better place than Stanford?
Scarlett is the first graduate transfer at
Stanford. Shaw said plenty of others have
had interest in the past but no one else made
it through the rigorous admissions process
for Stanfords graduate schools.
The Cardinal players were a little wary of
welcoming a rival, giving him odd looks
when he toured the weight room before

49ers Bowman, Williams return to Seattle

By Janie McCauley
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SANTA CLARA Ian Williams passed

NaVorro Bowman in the locker room earlier
this week and reminded his teammate they
would be returning to Seattles home field and
the scene of major injuries from the 2013 season that temporarily derailed their careers.
I was like, Were back, were live up there,
were back, Williams said of finally being
able to play again at CenturyLink Field after
their respective, grueling rehabilitations. He
just smiled at me. Its our first time back up
there. Its going to be exciting I think for
both of us.
Bowman hasnt played in Seattle since a
frightening and devastating left knee injury
during the NFC championship game in
January 2014. He later had surgery.
For Williams, it was earlier that season. He
began 2013 as starting nose tackle, then sus-

Sweezy. Williams underwent four surgeries near
the ankle having screws
and plates put in and then
removed and began the
next training camp on the
physically unable to perform list following an off-

season setback.
Theyre both healthy now.
Bowman, who leads the NFC with 88 tackles in his impressive comeback season, had
hoped to return last year but wound up sitting
out all of 2014 as his knee slowly recovered.
Itll be real humbling for me understanding
the last time I was there, Bowman said. Ill
never forget the exact spot that it happened.
Ive been thinking about that for the past couple weeks. It will be very humbling for me just

to approach it again and

be able to just play on that
field again and have a
good game.
He suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament and
medial collateral ligament
in his left knee that
January day, later undergoIan Williams ing surgery for the ACL
tear.
The one thing that he regretted is he didnt
hold onto the ball, that doesnt surprise me as
the answer he would give, defensive coordinator Eric Mangini said Thursday.
Bowman emerged as a Defensive Player of
the Year candidate in 2013. That December,
his three sacks, two interceptions, one
returned for a touchdown, two forced fumbles
and a fumble recovery were unmatched by any
other player all season. He finished 2013 with
145 tackles, five sacks, two interceptions and
four forced fumbles.

While he might not have the first-step burst

he used to before the knee injury, Bowman is
back as a dominant force for a defense trying
to regain its status as a top unit in the league.
Bowman routinely sits out Wednesday practices to stay fresh, though he does get regular
rehab work on the knee that day.
I think I have a grasp of what I need to do
to get my knee game-ready, he said. I dont
think Im 100 percent yet, and I dont feel that
yet, but I do feel great, I feel the knee progressing every single week.
Williams has recalled in the past his ankle
dangling from his leg after the injury, then he
broke his fibula in Week 10 at New Orleans
last November.
Im pretty excited to get back up there and
actually play, said Williams, who ended last
season on injured reserve for the second
straight year. I look at it as more of another
game than a revenge game. Were worried
about winning instead of any personal vendettas.

Raiders suddenly struggling to stop the run

By Michael Wagaman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ALAMEDA Defensive coordinator Ken

Norton Jr. has no shortage of reasons why the
Oakland Raiders have gone from owning one
of the best run defenses to one of the worst.
Bad tackling, breakdowns in fundamentals,
players being out of position. The list goes
on and on.
Norton even pointed the finger of blame at
himself, citing his need to be a better teacher.
Its a little bit of everything, Norton said
Thursday. You cant put it on one thing. Our
tackling is something we really put our foundation on, and somewhere along the way that
failed us.
Whatever the case, the Raiders inability to
stop the run the past two weeks has become a

glaring problem that threatens to derail

Oaklands once-promising season.
The Raiders have given up a whopping 458
yards on the ground in back-to-back losses to
Pittsburgh and Minnesota. That was in stark
contrast to earlier in the year when opponents managed just 580 rushing yards in
Oaklands first seven games.
It hasnt helped that the Raiders have been
without veteran defensive end Justin Tuck
since Week 5. Tuck is out for the season with
a torn pectoral.
Losing linebacker Aldon Smith to a yearlong NFL suspension wont make fixing the
problems any easier, either.
Defensive tackle Justin Ellis doesnt think
so and says Oaklands problems defending
the run have been more self-inflicted than
anything else.

We all see that theyre fixable things,

Ellis said. Now we have to fix them and keep
pushing. Were going through a little bit of
adversity but well be all right.
It sounds simple enough but its been anything but that for the Raiders after they effectively shut down Chris Ivory and the New
York Jets on Nov. 1. Ivory was the secondleading rusher in the AFC going into the
game but managed just 17 yards on 15 carries
in Oaklands 34-20 win.
Its been all downhill for the Raiders run
defense since then.
DeAngelo Williams, an aging backup running back in Pittsburgh, torched Oakland
for 170 yards and two touchdowns on 27
carries. The 32-year-old Williams took full
advantage of the Raiders defenders, which
frequently over-pursued, opening cutback

lanes for him to get through.

It was just as bad during last weeks loss to
Minnesota when Adrian Peterson gouged
Oakland for 203 yards 137 coming in the
fourth quarter, including a game-clinching
80-yard touchdown.
Its been missed tackles and some fundamental
breakdowns,
Ellis
said.
Fundamentals have broke down at the wrong
times and it just looks so bad. Big runs make
it look real bad. I cant take it from them,
they are good running backs, but at the same
time, yes we are doing something wrong
which is making it look worse than it really
is.
The Raiders owned the second-ranked run
defense through seven games. Theyve fallen
to 23rd heading into Sundays game at
Detroit.

Truex emerges as unlikely NASCAR contender

By Dan Gelston
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Cespedes, acquired by the Mets from Detroit at the July 31 trade

deadline, finished 13th.
Harper put aside his injury problems from recent seasons and
put up huge numbers. The banged-up Nationals didnt do nearly so
well, starting the season as World Series favorites and finishing
far out of contention.
Harper missed a lot of games in 2013 after a pair of run-ins with
walls, then was sidelined for much of 2014 following a headfirst
slide that hurt his thumb.
This year, Harper reported to spring training with one goal
the only number he focused on was games played.
Harper finished with a .649 slugging percentage and a .460 onbase average. He went into the final day of the regular season with
a chance to win the NL batting title Miamis Dee Gordon edged
him and scored a league-leading 118 runs.
The three-time All-Star also continued to draw fans in the
Washington area and beyond. His constantly changing hairstyles
are always getting attention and the selfie he took in the outfield
before a game at Nationals Park this season boosted his popularity even more.
His hitting, though, is what makes him so special.
You could see throughout the season what this guy meant to
this ballclub. And dont forget, this guy carried us throughout the
whole season, Nationals general manager Mike Rizzo said
Wednesday.
Every team that we played circled his name and said, This
guys not going to beat us. And with that said, he beat a lot of
teams. So it was a remarkable season. As we said at this time last
year, I thought that Harp was just scratching the surface of what
he can be.
Donaldson received 23 first-place votes. Los Angeles Angels
outfielder Mike Trout got the other first-place votes finished second for the third time he won the award last year. Kansas City
outfielder Lorenzo Cain was third.
Donaldson led the AL with 123 RBIs and topped the majors by
scoring 122 runs. He hit 41 home runs and batted .297.
Traded from Oakland to Toronto last offseason, Donaldson
joined a power-packed lineup that included Jose Bautista and
Edwin Encarnacion. The Blue Jays battered their way to the AL
East title and led the majors in runs and homers, with Donaldson
leading the way.
I feel like I was able to take advantage of the opportunities put
in front of me, Donaldson said on the MLB Network telecast of
the awards.
Donaldson joined George Bell (1987) as the only Toronto players to win the MVP.

THE DAILY JOURNAL

HOLLYWOOD, Fla. Martin Truex waited at the dais as

the three drivers he will race for a championship had
achievements read that made them all seem fit to wear
NASCARs crown.
Kevin Harvick, the defending Sprint Cup champion.
Jeff Gordon, the four-time series champion.
Kyle Busch, won four times in a five-race span to earn a
championship berth.
And Truex?
He was simply billed as hailing from New Jersey, driving for a team headquartered in Denver.
Thats it.
With only three career wins in 368
races, Truex seems like the oddity in
NASCARs finale in Florida on Sunday.
The 35-year-old Truex, of Mayetta, New
Jersey, drives for a one-car operation at
Furniture Row Racing in Colorados capital, far removed from NASCARs North
Carolina hub. He even has a rookie crew
chief in Cole Pearn.
Martin Truex
Truex has hardly slithered into the
finale, though, finishing in the top 10 in
five of the nine Chase for the Sprint Cup championship
races. He won an emotional race at Pocono Raceway to
clinch a Chase berth, celebrating in victory lane with longtime girlfriend Sherry Pollex, who was diagnosed with cancer last summer.
Everybody keeps telling me to enjoy myself and dont
take it too serious and have a good time with it, Truex said.
This is coming from guys who have done this before,
experienced it. And I really didnt need that advice.
Truex is cramming all the fun he can into this championship weekend after a string of personal and professional
hardships.
Truex landed at Furniture Row in the wake of NASCARs
cheating scandal at Richmond in 2013. Truex was booted
from the Chase when NASCAR determined that Michael

Waltrip Racing manipulated the outcome of the race in a bid

to get Truex into the Chase.
Truex lost his job and can now win a title the same day
his old team races for the final time before folding.
Is it hard to believe that what happened at Richmond,
might be ...
A blessing? Truex interjected. Sherry told me after that
race, dont let it get you down. Things happen for a reason.
Its going to work out. Of course, I didnt believe her the
night that I got the phone call from NASCAR and they told
me what they were going to do.
He realized there were too many parts of life outside his
control, which struck hard when Pollex learned she had
ovarian cancer. She has three more chemotherapy treatments left, with the final one coming shortly before the
2016 Daytona 500.
Itll be great to kick off a new season and not have to
worry about that, hopefully, anymore, ever, Truex said.
His biggest concern this week? Snow, of all things.
His No. 78 Chevrolet was still on the way to Florida, road
packed in an 18-wheeler that was delayed by a snowstorm in
Colorado. His rig drivers slept Tuesday night at a Walmart
parking lot, their scheduled 36-hour trip stretched out even
longer.
I think all is well, Truex said.
Furniture Row, funded by Barney Visser, made the Chase
in 2013 with Kurt Busch, and is tethered to Richard
Childress Racing through a technical alliance. Gordon,
Harvick and Busch all have three teammates. Truex would be
the first driver from a one-car team to win a Cup championship since Dale Earnhardt and RCR achieved the feat in
1994.
It brings a legitimacy to the team, Furniture Row general manager Joe Garone said. Weve been a team thats
been growing for so long on a pretty linear upward curve. To
come to this point in time, it answers a lot of questions.
Truexs success has even resonated in Denver, a city usually gripped with football fever this time of the year.
Truexs championship push might find some headline space
with the Denver Broncos mired in a two-game losing skid.
Luckily, ours is good press, Truex said, laughing. Im
sure theirs wasnt too good after last weekend.

Tip-ins

Greens 3-pointer beat the buzzer and left the Warriors trailing 91-85 heading into the fourth.
The Clippers shot 71 percent in the first quarter, when
Paul scored 18 points and was perfect from the floor, the 3point line and the free throw line. They scored 10 unanswered points and at one point, Paul had singlehandedly
outscored Golden State 18-16.
Los Angeles stretched its lead to 23 points largest of
the game early in the second on a 3-pointer by Austin
Rivers.
The Warriors closed the quarter on a 22-13 run that began
with eight in a row to trail 68-54 at halftime. Curry had 11
points in the spurt and Barnes added eight.
Curry hit a 3 for the Warriors lone lead of the first three
quarters before things quickly turned sour for their star

Warri o rs : G Leandro Barbosa has the flu and watched the

game from the locker room. ... G Shaun Livingston sat out
with a strained left hip flexor. ... F Kevon Looney, who
starred last season at UCLA before leaving early for the
NBA, missed his teams first trip to Los Angeles this season
while he recovers from hip surgery.
Cl i ppers : Their 41 points in the first were the most in
a quarter and their 68 points were the most in a half this season. ... G J.J. Redick missed his third straight game because
of back spasms. ... Jay-Z and retired Yankees great Derek
Jeter shared a pregame hug.

Receiver/return man Aidan VerbaHamilton is a threat to score any time he
touches the ball. He led the Crusaders in
receptions and yards with 30 and 508,
respectively while scoring six touchdowns. He added another seven touchdowns
on kickoff (5) and punt returns (2), while
racking up nearly 900 return yards. He averaged 137 yards of total offense a game.
Defensively, linebacker Rocco Russell
has been a beast. He is averaging 10.2 tackles per game, including 10.5 sacks and a
total of 19.5 tackles for loss this season.
Dont think, however, that Burlingame
doesnt have the weapons to beat Riordan.
The Panthers have one of the best rushing
attacks in the CCS and it might be that
Burlingames best defense is to have a consistent offense.
We talked about that all week and reemphasized that, Philipopoulos said. We
need to control the ball and work the clock
and move the chains.
Punting is OK as long we dont kick to
their return guy.
And the Panthers appear to be champing
at the bit for this test. Philipopoulos
believes the seniors on this years team are
hungry for postseason success. Riordan
may have to contend with an angry Laipeli
Palu, who was limited to just four carries

transferring and taking a bit of time to warm
up. Scarlett quickly became a key part of the
defense after an already thin line was hit by
a season-ending injury to Harrison Phillips
in September.
After the first couple of weeks, I had dinner with him. I was thinking Cal guy? But
after talking with him for a couple of hours,
it was cool to see his personality, Stanford

Harrison went down, his role jumped up. We
needed him. Hes shown how important he
is.

against San Mateo last week.

I think hes upset he got only four carries, Philipopoulos said. He, Cooper
(wide receiver Cooper Gindraux) and some
of our other seniors have been on another
level this week.
The Crusaders were 7-0 and the talk of
Northern California. As good as Riordan
was to start the season, however, the
Crusaders seemed to run out of steam or their
final four opponents finally figured them
out. They are limping into the playoffs,
having lost three of their final four
including a 36-27 loss to St. Francis last
week to finish in a tie for third place in
the West Catholic Athletic League standings
with a 4-3 record.
They lost three out of four; lose to Valley
Christian, lose to St. Francis. It (the WCAL
is) the strongest league in Northern
California, Philipopoulos said. They
played well (in those games) and they made
a couple of mistakes. Theyre a great team in
a great league. [Playing in the WCAL is]
physical, its tough. Maybe it wears you
down.
But like any good coach, Philipopoulos is
more concerned about having his team prepared for the first round of the playoffs.
He believes he has.
Were not backing down. We have a
strong senior class who have been working
extremely hard. Regardless of what happens, well be ready, Philipopoulos said.
We told the kids, if we win the game, its
because we played better. If they win, its
because they played better.
Scarlett is coming off perhaps his best
game, getting 2 1/2 sacks last Saturday in a
loss to Oregon. Getting another on Saturday
against Jared Goff after being unable to hit
him at all in two years of practice would be
even sweeter.
I never got to hit Jared so thats the
plan, he said.
Scarlett also would like to get his hands
on the coveted Axe that goes to the winner
of this rivalry. After being on the losing
side for four years at Cal, Scarlett has joined
the team with the upper hand in the rivalry.
The Cardinal have won the past five meetings, often in dominating fashion. But
Scarlett still seeks his first Big Game win.
I dont feel like Ive earned the Axe, he
said. Its here and Im here, but I didnt really win it.

Discarded cellphone led

to Paris attacks ringleader
PARIS French investigators tracked
down the alleged ringleader of last weeks
Paris bloodshed after receiving a startling
tipoff: The Islamic militant wasnt in Syria
but in Europe, plotting yet another attack.
A discarded cellphone found near a bloodied
concert hall led them to his cousin, and then
to a suburban Paris apartment where both
died in a hail of bullets and explosions.
As a manhunt intensified Thursday for a
fugitive connected to the carnage, details
emerged about the intelligence operation
that allowed authorities to zero in on
Abdelhamid Abaaoud, the BelgianMoroccan extremist they say orchestrated
the attacks in Paris and four plots thwarted
earlier this year.

LOCAL/WORLD
The narrative provided by French officials raised questions about how a wanted
militant suspected of involvement in multiple plots could slip into Europe undetected.
Investigators quickly identified Abaaoud
as the architect of the deadly attacks in
Paris, but they believed he had coordinated
the assaults against a soccer stadium, cafes
and a rock concert from the battlefields of
Syria.
That situation changed profoundly on
Monday, when France received a tip from a
non-European country that Abaaoud had
slipped into Europe through Greece,
Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve said.
It was a big surprise when the intelligence came in, said a police official,
speaking on condition of anonymity
because the information was sensitive.
There were many people who didnt take it
seriously, but effectively it was confirmed.

BAGHDAD The Islamic State group is

aggressively pursuing development of
chemical weapons, setting up a branch dedicated to research and experiments with the
help of scientists from Iraq, Syria and elsewhere in the region, according to Iraqi and
U.S. intelligence officials.
Their quest raises an alarming scenario
for the West, given the determination to
strike major cities that the group showed
with its bloody attack last week in Paris.
U.S. intelligence officials dont believe IS
has the capability to develop sophisticated
weapons like nerve gas that are most suited
for a terrorist attack on a civilian target. So
far the group has used mustard gas on the

battlefield in Iraq and Syria.

Still, French Prime Minister Manuel Valls
on Thursday warned that Islamic extremists
might at some point use chemical or biological weapons. Terrorism hit France not
because of what it is doing in Iraq and Syria
... but for what it is, Valls told the lower
house of Parliament. We know that there
could also be a risk of chemical or biological weapons, he added, though he did not
talk of a specific threat.
Iraqi officials expressed concern that the
large safe haven the extremists control
since overrunning parts of Iraq and Syria
last year has left Iraqi authorities largely in
the dark over the IS program.
They now have complete freedom to
select locations for their labs and production sites and have a wide range of experts,
both civilians and military, to aid them, a
senior Iraqi intelligence official told the
Associated Press.

entire school community around lunch hour.

During the most recent California
Thursday meal, parents were invited onto
the campus to eat with their children, while
teachers and school staff mingled among
students dining together and sitting around
foldout tables with bench seating.
The initiative in Millbrae is part of a larger statewide program designed by the Center
for Ecoliteracy, which tries to get more,
local, quality food in school lunches, and is
supported in part by grant funding through
the state Department of Food and
Agriculture.
Beyond the enhanced health and education
opportunities presented by California
Thursdays, Principal Phil Hophan said he
believes the lunch program has done much
to unify Taylor Middle School.
Our community is greater when we come
together like this, he said.
California Thursday meals periodically
circulate throughout the districts four campuses, to give all students an opportunity to

enjoy the innovative approach to school

lunches.
Even the recently hired Superintendent
Vahn Phayprasert gets in the on the fun, as
he helped cook some of the food served to
students and also moves throughout the district with the lunch program to meet students, teachers and administrators.
What a way to get to know students,
said Phayprasert.
After students finish eating, school staff
come together to eat the food served to students and catch up for a few spare minutes
before again joining their classes.
Phayprasert said California Thursday
meals help build community at the schools.
Theres something about getting together and breaking bread, he said.
David Coff, a seventh-grade science
teacher at Taylor Middle School, sat alongside his students eating lunch and enjoying
conversation.
Its really cool, it brings everyone
together, and it helps me get to know the

kids, he said.
Devon Casazza, one of Coffs students,
joined his teacher eating the California
Thursday fare.
This is pretty good, it is quality meat,
he said. And its topped with gravy, and
that makes everything better.
Casazza said he not only enjoys the meal,
but also appreciates the way that the food
program has made him think more deeply
about the effort that goes into his lunches.
It makes me wonder where it comes from,
rather than how it tastes, he said.
Matt Garrett, a teacher at the school who
has children enrolled in the district, said the
California Thursday program has met its
mark.
Its a big difference, the food is a lot better, he said.
He said his children are inclined to eat
meals at school they would not otherwise
enjoy.
They look forward to it, he said. They
eat things here they dont eat at home.

down the street to the old Cowabunga

Creamery ice cream shop at 784 Laurel St.,
two doors down from Arranged for Comfort,
owned by Susan Hannah.
The village-like charm of downtown is
what originally attracted Hannah to open up
in San Carlos.
She supports Johnsons effort.
This town is so family friendly. It would
be a shame to lose that flavor, Hannah said
Thursday.
When rents go up, they become unaffordable for locals, she said, prompting the proliferation of chain stores.
There are two Starbucks on this street.
Its so ridiculous, she said.
The San Carlos Chamber of Commerce
has yet to take a formal position on the pro-

posal, Chief Executive Officer David

Bouchard said.
Its good though to put the brakes on a
little bit and see what everybody wants to
do, Bouchard said.
Currently, there are 22 storefronts in
downtown occupied by formula businesses
and 11 storefronts that have multiple locations in the region.
In Savays report to council he writes:
Currently, formula businesses are permitted in San Carlos and do not trigger a greater
review than an independently owned, small
business of the same use classification
would trigger. For example, the zoning
ordinance treats coffee shops of equal square
footage and number of seats identically,
whether the coffee shop is a Peets, a Philz,

or a Plantation Coffee Roasters.

Since chain stores are not specifically
addressed in the citys zoning rules, they are
not discretely reviewed prior to approval,
Savay wrote.
All a chain store, depending on the type,
has to do now to operate downtown is to
secure a building permit for any structural or
interior tenant improvements, disabled
access improvements, a sign permit and a
business license, according to Savays
report.
For Johnson, its an effort to maintain
the soul of downtown.

Crank up the flavor of gravy
By Sara Moulton
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Just because Thanksgiving

mostly is about tradition doesnt
mean that we arent open to
going off script when it comes to
side dishes and exactly how to
cook the big bird.
But the gravy? Its where innovation goes to die! Generally,
were content to just pour some
store-bought chicken broth,
along with a little butter and

flour, into the pan in which the

turkey was roasted, then call it a
day. In truth, I love a pan gravy as
much as anyone, but you can
make a much more exciting gravy
with just a little more work.
We were taught in cooking
school that your sauce will only
be as good as the liquid you add to
it. In the case of turkey gravy,
that would be turkey broth. What
can be done to amp up its flavor?
To start, you want to brown the

Cheat sheet takes mystery out of Thanksgiving

By J.M. Hirsch
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Thanksgiving math actually

isnt all that hard. You just need to
use a few basic equations.
For example, to estimate the
amount of wine youll need, begin
by multiplying the number of inlaws you are expecting by the estimated number of offensive jokes
your uncle is likely to tell (remember to round up). Take the product
of that and multiply it by the number of children likely to overhear
the offensive jokes. Buy that
many bottles of wine.

Or perhaps you need to know

how many pies to serve. Tally the
total number of guests, then add
another eight guests to that number to account for your nieces
heartthrob of the moment (who
may or may not come, but if he
does will eat an entire pie himself). Now subtract 12 from your
total to account for the guests who
without warning will diagnose
themselves as gluten-sensitive,
fruit-free, paleo-centric or antisugar. Buy that many pies.

Compelled to serve green beans? At least make them delicious

By Alison Ladman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

We apologize if you are a huge fan of

green beans. We apologize if you are the
sort of person who longs for the green
beans at Thanksgiving. We think its a little strange, but we still apologize.
Its not that green beans arent perfectly
delightful. Its just that with so many far
more exciting sides on offer at the typical
Thanksgiving feast, its really hard to get
excited about green beans. Usually, we
dont even bother to put them on our plates.
So why do so many people serve them? Its
probably some combination of tradition
(Aunt Susie always serves them!) and guilt
(as if eating three green beans atones for
your 1,500-calorie gravy-fueled sins...).
Would it be easier to just leave them off
this years menu? Yup. Will you? Probably
not. So we decided that if you really must
clutter up the table with green beans, at least
make them truly delicious. Not that you need
to work hard to make that happen. In fact,
we came up with five delicious and easy ways
to dress your green beans. Theyre so good

we might even eat less mashed potatoes to

leave room for them. Or not.

GREEN BEANS FIVE WAYS

Start to finish: 10 minutes
Servings: 6
2 pounds green beans, ends trimmed
1/2 cup water
2 tablespoons unsalted butter

In a large skillet over medium-high, combine the green beans and water. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes, or until
just tender and bright green. Drain any water
that has not evaporated and stir in the butter. Season with salt and pepper. Continue
the recipe using one of the following variations:

Go stuff it! Or not. But either

way, this stuffing is delicious
By Alison Ladman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

To brine or not to brine? High heat or low

and slow? Jellied or whole berry? And of
course, to stuff or not to stuff?
They are, of course, the perennial
Thanksgiving debates. So let us give you a
little clarity this year. And if your relatives
disagree and want to argue about it, you can
blame us.
If you have the space and time, brining is
fine. If you dont, its not worth the trouble
(and you can replicate the results by just
dumping a bottle of soy sauce over the bird
before and during roasting anyway). For
temp, start high, then cut it back to finish
low and slow. As for the berries ... Are you
older than 10? Then whole berries are the
only option.
Ah, but the stuffing. That one is more
complicated. Its hard to argue with the fact

that a stuffed bird is more beautiful. Not to

mention the stuffing from a stuffed bird
packs way more flavor. Of course, if you
dont cook it properly, that flavor also
packs a fine chance of food poisoning. And
then there is the trouble and mess of doing
the actual stuffing, and the fact that youve
now rendered the dish unfit for any vegetarians at the table.
So we advocate having it both ways.
Make up one giant batch of stuffing, then
use part of it to stuff your bird while popping the rest into a well-buttered baking
dish. The trick to keeping the stuffed stuffing safe to consume is to make sure it is hot
when it goes into the cavity of the turkey
(and using a thermometer to make sure it
reaches 165 F at the center by the end of
cooking).
As for the baking dish batch, keep it
moist and delicious with a little extra broth
drizzled over the top. If there are vegetari-

Ditch the extra broth and instead drizzle the finished stuffing with some of the pan drippings
from the roasted turkey. Chances are that batch will be even more flavorful than the stuffing
that was actually stuffed.
ans in the mix, be sure to use vegetable
broth. No veggies at the table? Ditch the
extra broth and instead drizzle the finished
stuffing with some of the pan drippings
from the roasted turkey. Chances are that
batch will be even more flavorful than the
stuffing that was actually stuffed.
Now that youre prepped to stuff (and
not), weve got you covered with a master
recipe for classic bread stuffing, as well as
four ways to adulterate it most deliciously.

CLASSIC STUFFING
Start to finish: 40 minutes
Servings: 8
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
1 large yellow onion, diced
3 ribs celery, diced
2 cups low-sodium chicken or turkey
broth (or vegetable if making some or all of
the stuffing vegetarian-friendly)
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 tablespoon chopped fresh sage
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme

1 tablespoon minced fresh rosemary

8 cups toasted or stale bread (cut into 1inch cubes)
Heat the oven to 375 F. Butter a large baking pan or casserole dish (such as a 9-inchby-13-inch baking pan).
In a large deep skillet over medium, melt
the butter. Add the onion and celery and
cook for 5 to 7 minutes, or until the onion
is translucent and tender. Add the broth,
salt, pepper, sage, thyme and rosemary.
Bring to a simmer. Remove from the heat
and gently stir in the bread cubes. If desired,
reserve some for stuffing the turkey.
Transfer the remaining mixture to the prepared baking dish and bake for 20 minutes,
or until the top is toasted.
Stuffing that is cooked in the bird must
reach 165 F by the end of cooking. Use an
instant thermometer inserted into the center
of the stuffing to get an accurate reading.
Stuffing that is cooked in a baking dish
should be drizzled with pan drippings from
the roast turkey just before serving (unless
it is intended for vegetarians).

Perfect potatoes
PERFECT MASHED POTATOES
Start to finish: 30 minutes
Servings: 10
5 pounds potatoes, peeled or not, cut into 1-inch chunks
Kosher salt
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature
1 to 1 1/2 cups half-and-half, warmed
Ground white pepper
Place the cut potatoes in a large pot, then add enough cool water to
cover by at least 1 inch. Stir in 1 tablespoon of salt. Bring to a boil, then
reduce heat to maintain a simmer. Cover and cook until the potatoes
are very tender and a fork penetrates them easily.Timing will vary by
potato variety, but should take between 10 and 15 minutes. Be careful not to let the potatoes cook beyond this point; you want them
tender, not totally broken down.
Drain well in a colander,then return the potatoes to the pot.Set the pot
over medium heat and cook for 1 to 2 minutes, shaking the pan now
and again, to cook off excess moisture. Remove from the heat and
mash. Once the potatoes are mashed to your liking, stir in the butter
and 1 cup of the warmed half-and-half.If you like a wetter mashed potato,add the additional half-and-half.Season with salt and white pepper.

needed.

BROWN BUTTER-ROSEMARY
In a small saucepan over medium-low, cook 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted
butter until the milk solids on the bottom of the pan turn light brown

longer, so be careful not to burn them. Stir into the potatoes in place
of the room temperature butter and add 2 tablespoons finely minced
fresh rosemary.

BLUE WALNUT
Stir in 1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese,3/4 cup chopped toasted walnuts
and the zest of 1/2 lemon.

DEVILED
Stir in 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper,2 tablespoons Dijon or spicy mustard, 1/4 cup prepared horseradish and 1/4 cup chopped fresh chives.

HUNTERS
Stir in 1/2 cup crumbled cooked bacon,1 cup crumbled cooked sausage
and 1/2 cup finely chopped salami.

DIRTY
Slice the top off 2 heads of garlic, just so the tips of the cloves show
under the papery skins. Drizzle with olive oil and wrap loosely in foil.
Roast in the oven at 350 F for 45 minutes, or until very tender. Meanwhile, thinly slice and saute 2 large yellow onions in a little butter over
medium heat until well browned, about 20 minutes.Squeeze the garlic cloves out of the skins and mash with a fork. Stir into the potatoes,
along with the caramelized onions, and a hefty dose of ground black
pepper.

Were ready to move the pumpkin

beyond just pie this Thanksgiving
By Alison Ladman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Were not saying you should ditch the

classic
pumpkin
pie
this
Thanksgiving. After all, in some
homes that would be tantamount to a
declaration of war. And frankly the holidays are stressful enough.
But we are suggesting that perhaps
the pie is feeling lonely. That perhaps a
second and in our opinion even more
delicious pumpkin dessert would be a
wonderful addition to the Thanksgiving
bounty. So we created this pumpkin
Bundt cake that is studded through the
center with an apple-date-pumpkin seed
streusel.
And to tie it all together? A sticky toffee-coffee glaze. And because that
sticky, drippy sauce is so delicious, our
recipe makes extra so your guests can
dunk bites of the cake into a little on
the side.

PUMPKIN BUNDT CAKE WITH

APPLE-DATE STREUSEL AND
STICKY TOFFEE-COFFEE GLAZE
Start to finish: 1 hour 30 minutes
Servings: 16
For the cake:
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
1/2 cup vegetable oil
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
15-ounce can pumpkin puree (not pie
filling)
1 cup whole-fat plain Greek yogurt

A second pumpkin dessert will be a

wonderful addition to the Thanksgiving
bounty.
2 cups plus 1 tablespoon all-purpose
flour, divided
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon kosher salt
3 teaspoons cinnamon, divided
1 teaspoon ground dry ginger
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
2 large apples, peeled, cored and diced
1 cup chopped dried dates
2/3 cup toasted pumpkin seeds or
toasted chopped pecans
For the glaze:
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
1 1/2 cups packed brown sugar
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons instant coffee granules
1 tablespoon bourbon (or vanilla
extract)
Heat the oven to 350 F. Coat a 10-

inch fluted tube pan or Bundt pan with

cooking spray, then dust with flour.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the
sugar, oil, eggs, vanilla, pumpkin and
yogurt until smooth. In another bowl,
whisk together 2 cups of the flour, the
baking powder, baking soda, salt, 1
teaspoon of the cinnamon, the ginger,
nutmeg and cloves. Stir the flour mixture into the pumpkin mixture just until
well combined.
In the bowl that previously held the
flour, stir together the remaining 1
tablespoon of flour, 2 teaspoons of cinnamon, the brown sugar, apples, dates
and pumpkin seeds.
Pour half of the pumpkin batter into
the prepared pan, spoon the streusel
mixture around the pan in the center of
the batter, not allowing the streusel to
touch the edges of the pan. Top with
remaining batter. The streusel mixture
should be entirely covered by batter.
Bake for 50 to 60 minutes, or until a
wooden skewer inserted at the center
comes out clean. Allow to cool in the
pan for 30 minutes before turning out
onto a cooling rack to finish cooling.
To make the glaze, in a medium
saucepan over medium heat, combine
the butter, brown sugar and cream.
Bring to a simmer and, stirring constantly, cook for 3 minutes. Remove
from the heat and stir in the salt. In a
small glass, dissolve the instant coffee
in the bourbon, then still into the
glaze. Allow to cool slightly, then drizzle about half over the cake. Serve the
remaining glaze, warm, alongside the
cake.

GRAVY
Continued from page 18
turkey parts that have been packed inside
the bird the neck and the giblets (that is,
the heart and the gizzards). Then, slice off
the birds wings which nobody eats anyway and add them to the other parts. (Do
not add the liver; it will make the stock bitter. Instead, just reserve or freeze it until
you can saute it in butter and serve it on
toast. Yum!)
Browning these turkey parts, in the company of some carrots and onions, develops
complex flavors. This is called the Maillard
reaction. Its what happens when amino
acids combined with the sugars found in
meat and many vegetables are heated above
300 F. Concentrated juices from these
ingredients will collect in the bottom of
the pan as you brown them. When you
deglaze the pan, you dissolve those juices
and add them to the browned ingredients,
further deepening the stocks flavor.
You may be surprised to find tomato paste
among this recipes ingredients, but tomatoes happen to be a terrific source of

WEEKEND JOURNAL
umami. Umami is the fifth taste, after
sweet, sour, salty and bitter. It is usually
described as meaty. The carrots in the
stock also contribute umami. Briefly sauteing the tomato paste in the skillet helps to
brown it and develop its natural sugars.
Having cooked up your stock in a separate pan, youre eventually going to want
to add to it the juices that streamed out of
the turkey while it roasted and use the fat
that accumulated in the pan while you basted the bird. Again, this is how you intensify the gravys turkey flavor.
By the way, dont despair if your turkey is
missing the happy little package of giblets
and neck bone usually found inside the cavity; youll still have the turkey wings. Just
cut them off and supplement with some
chicken wings. Youll need about eight
ounces of poultry parts in total. Finally, I
recommend making the turkey stock a day
or two in advance of the feast. It will make
the big day itself a little less stressful.

BIGGER AND BETTER TURKEY GRAVY

Start to finish: 4 hours 15 minutes (35
minutes active)
Makes 5 cups
The neck, wings and giblets (about 8-

ounces total) from an 18- to 24-pound

turkey
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 medium yellow onion, medium chopped
1 medium carrot, medium chopped
2 garlic cloves, smashed and peeled
1 tablespoon tomato paste
6 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1 celery stalk, coarsely chopped
2 sprigs fresh thyme
1 bay leaf
The drippings, 1/2 cup fat and pan juices
from an 18- to 24-pound roasted turkey
Butter, melted (if there is not enough fat
from the roast to make the gravy)
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons instant flour
(such as Wondra)
Kosher salt and ground black pepper
Carefully chop the neck and wings into 1inch pieces and pat them and the giblets
dry. In a large skillet over medium-high,
heat the oil. Add the turkey pieces and
giblets, reduce the heat to medium and
cook, stirring occasionally, until they are
golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the
onion, carrot and garlic and cook, stirring
occasionally, until the vegetables are golden brown, about 5 minutes.
Add the tomato paste and cook, stirring,
for 1 minute. Transfer the mixture to a medium saucepan and add 1 cup of water to the
skillet. Deglaze the pan over high heat,
scraping up the brown bits with a spatula,
until all the bits have been dissolved. Pour
the mixture over the turkey parts in the
saucepan. Add the chicken broth and 2 cups
water to the saucepan.
Bring the liquid to a boil, reduce to a simmer and cook, skimming the scum that
rises to the surface with a skimmer or slotted spoon, until there is no more scum, 15
to 20 minutes. Add the celery, thyme and
bay leaf, then simmer gently for 2 hours.
Strain the stock through a colander, pressing hard on the solids. Discard the solids
and measure the stock; you should have 4
cups. If you have more, return the liquid to
the saucepan and simmer until it is reduced
to 4 cups. If you have less, add water to the
stock to make 4 cups. Cool, cover and chill
until it is time to make the gravy.
When the turkey is cooked and resting on
a platter, pour all the liquid in the roasting
pan into a fat separator or large glass measuring cup. Pour or skim off the fat from the
cup and reserve it; leave the cooking juices
in the fat separator. You will need 1/2 cup of
the fat for the gravy; if you dont have 1/2
cup, supplement with melted butter.
Set the roasting pan on top of 2 burners

THE DAILY JOURNAL

set over medium-low. Add the fat, followed
by the flour. Whisk the mixture, preferably
using a flat whisk, for 5 minutes. Add the
reserved cooking juices from the roasting
pan and two-thirds of the turkey stock.
Bring the mixture to a boil, whisking. If
the gravy needs thinning, add more of the
turkey stock and the juices that accumulated
on the platter where the turkey has been
resting.
Reduce the heat to a simmer and simmer
for 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

MUSHROOM GRAVY
Proceed with the master recipe up to the

Add half the fat and 1/3 cup minced shallots
and cook over medium heat, stirring, for 3
minutes. Add 8 ounces of assorted sliced
mushrooms and 1 tablespoon chopped
fresh thyme. Cook, stirring occasionally,
until the mushrooms are golden, about 5
minutes. Add the remaining fat and the flour
and cook, stirring, for 5 minutes. Add 1/3
cup dry sherry, Madeira or tawny port, or
1/2 cup red wine, (this is optional; you can
leave the alcohol out) along with the
reserved cooking juices and two-thirds of
the turkey stock. Bring the mixture to a
boil, whisking. If the gravy needs thinning, add more of the turkey stock and the
juices that accumulated on the platter where
the turkey has been resting. Reduce the heat
to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes.
Season with salt and pepper.

MUSTARD-HERB GRAVY
Proceed with the master recipe up through

minutes. Add 1/2 cup of dry white wine (this
is optional; you can leave the alcohol out)
along with the reserved cooking juices and
two-thirds of the turkey stock. Bring the
mixture to a boil, whisking. If the gravy
needs thinning, add more of the turkey
stock and the juices that accumulated on the
platter where the turkey has been resting.
Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for 10
minutes. Whisk in 2 tablespoons Dijon
mustard and 2 to 4 tablespoons finely
chopped fresh basil, tarragon or sage.
Season with salt and pepper.

TURKEY
Continued from page 18
get? This one is more complicated.
Start by making a list of everyone
coming to dinner. Rate each guest on
an annoyance scale of 1 to 10. Bump up
the rating by 2 points for any guest
likely to spend the day standing in the
kitchen distracting you. Tally all of the
ratings, then divide by the total number of guests. If the final score is 5 or
more, dont waste your money on any
turkey. Youll probably overcook it
while being annoyed and distracted by
guests.
For more help navigating the
Thanksgiving math minefield, weve
assembled a cheat sheet to the most
common culinary calculations. And
because this is Thanksgiving, all estimates are generous to allow for plenty
of seconds and leftovers.

HOW BIG?
For turkeys less than 16 pounds,
estimate 1 pound per serving (this
accounts for bone weight). For larger
birds, a bit less is fine; they have a
higher meat-to-bone ratio. But if your
goal is to have very ample leftovers,
aim for 1 1/2 pounds per person no
matter how big the turkey is.
For 8 people, buy a 12-pound
turkey
For 10 people, buy a 15-pound
turkey
For 12 people, buy an 18-pound
turkey
For 14 people, buy a 20-pound
turkey

THE BIG THAW

The safest way to thaw a frozen
turkey is in the refrigerator. Youll need
about 24 hours per 4 to 5 pounds of
turkey. For speedier thawing, put the
turkey (still in its wrapper) in a sink of
cold water. Change the water every 30
minutes, and plan for about 30 minutes
per pound.

THE BRINE
A good brine uses kosher salt and
sugar in a 1-to-1 ratio, and usually no
more than 1 cup of each. Feel free to add
any other seasonings. Brines typically
are made by heating the salt, sugar and
seasonings with a bit of water until dissolved. This mixture then is diluted
with additional cold water (volume will
vary depending on the size of your
bird) and ice. Be certain the brine is
completely cooled before using it.
Turkeys should be brined for at least
8 to 10 hours, but can go as long as 72
hours. A good rule of thumb is, the
longer the brine, the weaker the brine.
So for a 10-hour soak, use 1 cup each of
salt and sugar. For a longer one, consider backing down to 3/4 cup each.
Always keep the bird refrigerated during brining. If the turkey is
too big, an ice-filled cooler
stored outside works, too.
Dont have the time or
patience to brine? Try salting
instead. In fact, plenty of
folks say salting a turkey produces meat with far better flavor than brining. To do it, set
the turkey on a platter, then
rub a generous amount of
kosher salt on all surfaces.
Cover with plastic wrap and
refrigerate overnight. When
youre ready to roast, rinse the
salt from the turkey, pat it dry
and pop it in the oven.

THE ROAST
Roasting temperatures vary
widely by recipe. Some go at a
slow and steady 325 F. Others
crank the heat to 400 F or 425
F for the first hour, then drop
it down for the rest of the time.
However you roast, use an
instant thermometer inserted
at the innermost part of the
thigh (without touching bone)

to determine when your turkey is done.

The meat needs to hit 165 F for safe eating, though some people say thigh
meat tastes better at 170 F.
If the outside of the bird gets too dark
before the center reaches the proper
temperature, cover it with foil.
The following roasting time estimates are based on a stuffed turkey
cooked at 325 F. Reduce cooking time
by 20 to 40 minutes for turkeys that are
not stuffed (estimate total roasting
times at 15 minutes per pound for
unstuffed birds). And remember, a
crowded oven cooks more slowly, so
plan ahead if your bird needs to share
the space.
Using a convection oven? They are
great at browning, but require heating
or timing adjustments. Either cut the
temperature by about 25 F from what is
called for by the recipe and cook for the
time directed, or roast at the suggested
temperature, but reduce the cooking
time by about 25 percent.
The following times are for a standard oven:
12-pound turkey: 3 to 4 hours at
325 F
15-pound turkey: 4 to 4 1/2 hours at
325 F
18-pound turkey: 4 1/2 to 5 hours at
325 F
20-pound turkey: 5 to 6 hours at
325 F

THE BASTE
Basting the bird with its juices helps
crisp the skin and flavor the meat. Do it
every 30 minutes, but no more.
Opening the oven door too frequently
lets heat escape and can significantly
slow the cooking.

THE REST
The turkey never should go directly
from the oven to the table. Like most
meat, it needs to rest before serving for
the juices to redistribute. Cover the
turkey with foil and a few bath towels
layered over that (to keep it warm),
then let it rest for 20 to 30 minutes
before carving.

THE GEAR
You dont need to drop a load of cash
on special equipment to be thankful
this Thanksgiving, but there are some
tools that make life easier (and the food
safer). A digital instant thermometer or
wired probe (that remains in the turkey
during roasting) is the most critical.
Cheap thermometers will set you back
no more than $20.
A heavy duty roasting pan is a worthwhile investment, but only if you make
gravy from the drippings (the pan can
be set on the stovetop after roasting)
and if you roast other critters during the
rest of the year. Otherwise, do yourself
a favor and spend a few bucks on a disposable foil roasting pan (get a sturdy
one). This makes cleanup a whole lot
easier.
Speaking of foil, get the good stuff.

Friday Nov. 20, 2015

23

Skip the wimpy 12-inch rolls and grab

the heavy duty 18-inch stuff. It costs a
few dollars more, but makes it easier to
line pans, cover birds browning too
quickly and wrap leftovers.

THE SIDES
Carrots: a 1-pound bag makes 4 to 5
servings
Cranberry sauce: a 12-ounce package of fresh cranberries makes about 2
1/4 cups of sauce; a 16-ounce can has 6
servings
Gravy: plan for 1/3 cup of gravy per
person
Green beans: 1 1/2 pounds of beans
makes 6 to 8 servings
Mashed potatoes: a 5-pound bag of
potatoes makes 10 servings
Stuffing: a 14-ounce bag of stuffing
makes about 11 servings

DOUBLE OVEN TROUBLE?

Are you lucky enough to be blessed
with two ovens? Your Thanksgiving
prep just got easier. Heres how to
make the most of the extra roasting
space.
Dedicate one oven (if one is larger,
use the larger) to the turkey. Place one
rack on the ovens lowest shelf and
remove all others. When the bird goes
in the oven, it goes on that bottom
rack. Now see if you have room to add
another rack over it. If so, this is the
ideal place to cook your stuffing
(assuming it isnt in the bird), au gratin
potatoes and green bean casseroles,
which can cook at the same temperature
at the bird.
Early in the day, use the second
oven to cook anything that can be
done ahead. Pies and rolls are good.
Closer to the time you will serve the
meal, use the second oven to cook
things that need a higher temperature
than the turkey, such as roasted root
vegetables and pies. As the turkey is
being carved, use both ovens to reheat
items (such as those rolls) or keep
things warm; 150 F to 200 F is about
right for both tasks.

THE DESSERTS
Pie: a 9-inch pie can be cut into 8
modest slices.
Whipped cream: Dolloping
whipped cream on those 8 modest
slices will require 1 cup of heavy cream
beaten with 2 tablespoons powdered
sugar (a splash of vanilla extract is
nice, too)
Ice cream: a la mode doesnt require
much 1 pint per pie should suffice

THE LEFTOVERS
For food safety reasons, leftovers
should be cleared from the table and
refrigerated within two hours of being
served. Once refrigerated, they should
be consumed within three to four days.
Leftovers can be frozen for three to
four months. Though safe to consume
after four months, they will start to
taste off.

NOTICE OF PETITION TO
ADMINISTER ESTATE OF
Jean L. Uhland aka Jean L. Booher aka
Jean Lorrain Booher
Case Number: 126250
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or estate, or both, of: Jean L. Uhland aka
Jean L. Booher aka Jean Lorrain Booher.
A Petition for Probate has been filed by
Janette Fulton and Michelle Pavan in the
Superior Court of California, County of
San Mateo. The Petition for Probate requests that Janette Fulton and Michelle
Pavan be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of the
decedent.
The petition requests the decedents will
and codicils, if any, be admitted to probate. The will and any codicils are available for examination in the file kept by the
court.
The petition requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent
Administration of Estates Act. (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval. Before taking certain
very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to
give notice to interested persons unless
they have waived notice or consented to
the proposed action.) The independent
administration authority will be granted
unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good
cause why the court should not grant the
authority.
A hearing on the petition will be held in
this court as follows: DEC 02, 2015 at

9:00 a.m., Department 28, Superior

Court of California, County of San Mateo,
400 County Center, Redwood City, CA
94063.
If you object to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing
and state your objections or file written
objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person
or by your attorney.
If you are a creditor or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your
claim with the court and mail a copy to
the personal representative appointed by
the court within the later of either (1) four
months from the date of first issuance of
letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the
California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days
from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under section
9052 of the California Probate Code.
Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in California law.
You may examine the file kept by the
court. If you are a person interested in
the estate, you may file with the court a
Request for Special Notice (form DE154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any petition
or account as provided in Probate Code
section 1250. A Request for Special Notice form is available from the court clerk.
Petitioner:
Janette Fulton & Michelle Pavan,

tion of the boulders, or riprap, which serve
as a cushion between breaking waves and the
road. The project also includes paving a
400-foot section of the currently informal
pedestrian path serving as a connector for
the California Coastal Trail, and building a
staircase for easier public access to the
beach.
Because the project spans a variety of
jurisdictions, the various city, county and
state entities had to reach an agreement on
the scope of the work. Half Moon Bay
Mayor Marina Fraser said shes pleased to
see this critical project proceeding.
Surfers Beach is a favorite of locals and
visitors and this well-loved beach has succumbed to erosion over time, where it has
destroyed our paths, stairway and the road we
travel every day, Fraser wrote in an email.
Highway 1 is a critical road where each day
thousands of people travel, so it impacts
daily life and commerce for coastsiders. Add
to that, our visitors, and you have the most
important travel artery on the coast.
While locals and those whove frequented
the coast over the years have noticed the
erosion slowly undermining the road and
pedestrian path, its taken more than two

dives in some of the more densely populated parts in the district.
What is surprising for us is a decline of
enrollment in Redwood City, said
Lianides.
Previous projections expected the entire
district to grow beyond the threshold of
9,000 students by the current school year,
but the demographer overshot enrollment
growth for the past three years, and 154 students expected to enroll over that time period did not actually join the district.
There are 8,207 students enrolled in the
districts four comprehensive schools, and
an additional 789 enrolled in various charters or alternative education programs.
We are continuing our growth in the
Sequoia Union High School District. Our
enrollment did increase from last year, he
said. However, it increased by an amount
lower than what we would have expected.
In the past decade, the school district has
grown by 808 students, and more than
1,000 when considering 305 enrolled at the

years to derive a plan. Supervisor Don
Horsley, who represents the coast, initiated
conversations with Caltrans and Half Moon
Bay officials to ensure Highway 1 wouldnt
be compromised.
As the citys Chamber of Commerce estimates nearly 80 percent of coastside residents commute over the hill to work, it was
critical to protect the road that serves as one
of only two main entryways to Half Moon
Bay, according to Horsley.
I am extremely proud of San Mateo
Countys ability to foster this collaborative
solution to a very real and potentially devastating infrastructure challenge, Horsley
said in a press release. I am certain the community will be pleased when they see that
Highway 1 will be more stable at the popular
Surfers Beach. This will be a major benefit
to the entire community, not to mention a
general peace of mind for commuters.
Like most development along the
California
shoreline,
the
Coastal
Commission had to approve a permit a
condition of which was the project is intended to protect the road only until a long-term
solution is identified, according to
Horsleys office.
Enter in another local agency and the federal government, and the bureaucracy behind
a more permanent resolution to combat erosion intensifies.
Erosion at the beach is exacerbated by the
outer jetty of Pillar Point Harbor, which falls
which officially came to the district last
year.
And though the district is experiencing
pockets of slowing enrollment, other areas
continue to grow, according to a district
report, particularly in communities such as
Menlo Park, Belmont and Redwood Shores.
Enrollment at Menlo-Atherton High
School has grown by 125 students since
last year, according to a district report, and
though Carlmont High School has
decreased by 50 students in that same period, Lianides said the decline is attributable
to recently approved boundary shifts.
He said he expects enrollment at
Carlmont High School to pick up in coming
years, as the freshmen and sophomore
classes are larger than the class graduating
in the spring, which could indicate a growth
trend.
To address the pockets of growth in the
regions near Menlo-Atherton and Carlmont
high schools, district officials have agreed
to build two new small schools in Menlo
Park and San Carlos.
Lianides said he was considering working with the demographer to potentially
adjust prediction models to account for
changes in the community over recent
years, to ensure school officials are
receiving the most accurate and current

under the jurisdiction of, and is being studied

by, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. The
San Mateo County Harbor District, which
owns the harbor, has been working to get
federal approval for a dredging and sand
replenishment project.
The jetty was constructed in the late 1950s
to help protect boats in the harbor but has
slowly led to the loss of sand and degradation of the beach. The Harbor District
recently opted to take the lead on the proposal to benefit boaters, surfers, beachgoers
and commuters.
Such a project will require various state
and federal permits, as well as approval from
the Monterey Bay National Marine
Sanctuary which prohibits artificial
movement of sediment in sanctuary waters.
The Harbor District has estimated nearly
250,000 cubic yards of sand has been
deposited in the harbor in the past 50 years
sediment that should have replenished the
coast near Surfers Beach.
To abide by environmental and sanctuary
policies that prohibit dredged material
being placed in marine habitat, one option
is to use dry sand from the inner harbor to
replenish Surfers Beach above the high-tide

While it may take quite some time for the

district to solidify a replenishment plan
with the corps and sanctuary, the shoreline
repairs are slated to offer interim protection.

enrollment projections possible.

Were living in a very dynamic time, he
said. On a yearly basis, we need to revisit
our projections to make sure we are staying
current.
Officials are expected to receive another
updated enrollment projection report from
the demographer in January, which Lianides
said will hopefully offer a clear vision of
what to expect in coming years.
Trustee Alan Sarver noted the district has
seen a decrease in the amount of students
enrolled in the migrant education program,
which denotes a shift in the demographics
of those enrolled in district schools.

In combination, that highlights the way

our population is growing, but also being
transformed by the housing crunch, he
said. We need to take into account the number, but also the characteristics, of our population.
Though there has been some changes in
the demographics of certain communities
which has resulted in enrollment slowdowns, Trustee Allen Weiner urged officials
to remain vigilant in keeping a keen eye on
potential growth of the student population.
We need to be careful about assuming
that the tide has crested, he said. I think
the tide is still coming.

Caltrans anticipates construction mostly

taking place between 7 a.m. and 3:30 p.m.
with some night work required as well.
Minimal impacts to traffic are expected
although some lane closures may take place.
No detours are slated for vehicular traffic,
however, the pedestrian trail will be temporarily closed at times, according to
Caltrans.
Fraser said shes proud of the collaborative effort yet with climate change anticipated to greatly affect the California coast, the
various agencies must continue to consider
protective measures.
Recognizing that this is a short-term fix
for Highway 1, with sea level rise, you have
an acceleration of erosion along the bluffs
due to the patterns of currents, waves and the
tides. We still need to understand and work
with the Army Corps of Engineers for a
long-term resolution, Fraser wrote. Yet for
now, we will soon have our safe pathway and
trail to Surfers Beach.
