Thirty years for drugging, sodomizing 15
STAFF AND WIRE REPORT
A Pacifica man was sentenced to 30
years in state prison Thursday morning
for allegedly drugging 15 dates and then
sexually assaulting them with unidenti-
fied accomplices over an eight-year
period, according to the San Mateo
County District Attorney’s Office.
Joseph Paul Courtney, 33, pleaded no
contest to 14 felony sexual assaults
including sodomy by force or threat
while acting in concert, sodomy by use
of drugs and sodomy of an unconscious
person in August. Six of those felonies
were deemed violent, according to pros-
ecutors.
Courtney is HIV-positive, according
to prosecutors, and admitted to know-
ing about his HIV status at the time
these crimes were committed. At least
one of the victims has subsequently
tested positive for HIV, although the
court did not seek to prove that
Courtney was the person who transmit-

Drilling plan exemption

for Florida may be illegal
By Matthew Daly
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — The Trump
administration may have violated
federal law by exempting Florida
from a national plan to expand
offshore drilling, a Democratic
senator charged Thursday.
Sen. Maria Cantwell of
Washington state said Interior
Secretary Ryan Zinke’s decision
to give Florida a last-minute
exemption while ignoring at least
10 other states that made similar
requests may violate requirements
of the Outer Continental Shelf
Lands Act, which governs drilling
in U.S. coastal waters.
Zinke’s action is especially out-
rageous because Florida — unlike
California, Washington and other
states — did not expressly oppose
the drilling proposal in written
comments submitted to the
Interior Department, Cantwell
said.
While Florida Gov. Rick Scott
voiced opposition soon after the
plan’s Jan. 4 release, a letter sub-
mitted by the

Maria Cantwell to be exempted.
Instead, the let-

and gas activities on the environ-
ment and urged that “long-term

should be of paramount concern”
in developing a drilling plan.
By contrast, the governors of

House OKs spy program after Trump tweets spark confusion

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — President
Donald Trump’s puzzling tweets
about a key U. S. spying law
threw the House into temporary
disarray Thursday, but lawmakers
ended up renewing the law —
with a new restriction on when
the FBI can dig into the commu-
nications of Americans swept up
in foreign surveillance.
During a hectic morning of
House votes and presidential
tweets, Trump’s national intelli-
gence director also issued new
guidance for how officials can
find out the names of Americans
whose identities are blacked out
in classified intelligence reports.
Trump has said previous rules
were far too lax and led to damag-
ing leaks about top aides, a claim
fiercely contested by Democrats.
The new guidelines on
“unmasking” Americans, howev-
er, were a side show to the House
showdown over the Foreign
Intelligence Surveillance Act,
reauthorizing a collection pro-
gram set to expire on Jan. 19. The
bill passed 256-164 and is now
headed to the Senate. It would
extend for six years the program,
which includes massive monitor-
ing of international communica-
tions.
Trump has said he’ll sign the
renewal, but his first tweets
Thursday suggested he had sudden-
ly turned against the program,
alarming intelligence officials.
In one tweet, Trump linked the
program to a dossier that alleges
his presidential campaign had ties
to Russia.
“‘House votes on controversial
FISA ACT today,”’ Trump wrote,
citing a Fox News headline. “This
is the act that may have been used,
with the help of the discredited
and phony Dossier, to so badly
surveil and abuse the Trump
Campaign by the previous admin-
istration and others?”

President Donald Trump: Why allow
immigrants from ‘s—hole countries’
By Alan Fram and Jonathan Lemire
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — In bluntly vulgar lan-
guage, President Donald Trump questioned
Thursday why the U.S. would accept more
immigrants from Haiti and “s—hole coun-
tries” in Africa rather than places like
Norway, as he rejected a bipartisan immi-
gration deal, according to people briefed on
the extraordinary Oval Office conversation.
Trump’s contemptuous description of an
entire continent startled lawmakers in the
meeting and immediately revived charges
that the president is racist. The White House
did not deny his remark but issued a state-
ment saying Trump supports immigration
policies that welcome “those who can con-
tribute to our society.”
Trump’s comments came as two senators
presented details of a bipartisan compro-
mise that would extend protections against
deportation for hundreds of thousands of
young immigrants — and also strengthen
border protections as Trump has insisted.
The lawmakers had hoped Trump would
back their accord, an agreement among six
senators evenly split among Republicans
and Democrats, ending a months-long, bit-
ter dispute over protecting the “Dreamers.”
But the White House later rejected it, plung-
ing the issue back into uncertainty just
eight days before a deadline that threatens a
government shutdown.
Dick Durbin of Illinois, the Senate’ s No.
2 Democrat, explained that as part of that
deal, a lottery for visas that has benefited
people from Africa and other nations would
be ended, the sources said, though there
could be another way for them to apply.
Durbin said people would be allowed to stay
in the U.S. who fled here after disasters hit
their homes in places including El Salvador,
Guatemala and Haiti.
NATION
Donald Trump answers a question during a joint news conference with Norwegian Prime
Minister Erna Solberg at the White House.
Trump specifically questioned why the
U.S. would want to admit more people from
Haiti. As for Africa, he asked why more peo-
ple from “s—hole countries” should be
allowed into the U.S., the sources said.
The president suggested that instead, the
U.S. should allow more entrants from coun-
tries like Norway. Trump met this week with
Norwegian Prime Minister Erna Solberg.
Asked about the remarks, White House
spokesman Raj Shah did not deny them.
“Certain Washington politicians choose
to fight for foreign countries, but President
Trump will always fight for the American
people,” he said.
Trump’s remarks were remarkable even by
the standards of a president who has been
accused by his foes of racist attitudes and

rum that his modern predecessors have gen-

daughter of Haitian immigrants, said

ues.” She said, “This behavior is unaccept-
able from the leader of our nation” and
Trump must apologize to the American peo-
ple “and the nations he so wantonly
maligned.”
Trump has called himself the “least racist
person that you’ve ever met.”
Critics also have questioned his mental
fitness to serve as president, citing his
inability to muster some policy details and
his tweets asserting his “nuclear button” is
bigger than North Korea’s. He responded to
such criticism with a recent tweet calling
himself “a very stable genius” who is “like,
really smart.”
The sources spoke on condition of
anonymity because they weren’t authorized
to publicly describe the conversation. One
said lawmakers in the room were taken
aback by Trump’s remarks.
The Trump administration announced late
last year that it would end a temporary resi-
dency permit program that allowed nearly
60,000 citizens from Haiti to live and work
in the United States following a devastating
2010 earthquake.
Trump has spoken positively about
Haitians in public. During a 2016 campaign
event in Miami, he said “the Haitian people
deserve better” and told the audience of
Haitian-Americans he wanted to “be your
greatest champion, and I will be your cham-
pion.”
The agreement that Durbin and Sen.
Lindsey Graham, R-S. C. , described to
Trump also includes his $1.6 billion request
for a first installment on his long-sought
border wall, aides familiar with the agree-
ment said. They required anonymity because
the agreement is not yet public.
Trump’s request covers 74 miles of border
wall as part of a 10-year, $18 billion pro-
posal.

Missouri governor admits having
affair but denies blackmail
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. — When Eric
Greitens sought Missouri’s highest office
in 2016, his resume
seemed hard to top: for-
mer Navy SEAL, former
Rhodes scholar and
founder of a veterans’
charity. Most important,
he said during the cam-
paign, was his role as “a
proud husband and
Eric Greitens father.”
On Thursday, the
square-jawed Republican governor fought
allegations that he photographed his hair-
dresser naked while having an affair with
her and threatened to publicize the image if
she spoke about their relationship. The top
prosecutor in St. Louis quickly launched an
investigation. A bipartisan group of state
lawmakers asked the attorney general to
investigate as well.
Greitens acknowledged being “unfaith-
ful” in his marriage but denied taking any
naked photos and blackmailing the woman
to stay quiet.
The governor and his wife released a
statement late Wednesday after St. Louis
television station KMOV aired a bombshell
report that he had a sexual relationship
with the hairdresser in 2015. The report
included allegations from the woman’s ex-
husband, who secretly recorded a conversa-
tion with his ex-wife discussing the affair.
Uber has used tool to evade
police during foreign raids
NEW YORK — The ride-sharing company
Uber confirms it had technology to shield
company data when law enforcement raided
offices outside the U.S.
Uber says this tool — no longer in use —
could lock computers and smartphones and
change passwords remotely from the com-
pany’s headquarters in San Francisco.
Bloomberg reported Thursday that Uber
used the tool, known as Ripley, from
spring 2015 until late 2016 in several
cities.
Bloomberg says some Uber employees
felt the Ripley system hindered legitimate
investigations, while some people
believed its use was justified when police
didn’t come with warrants or specific-
enough data requests.
The use of this tool raises questions for
Uber because the company has in the past
used a phony version of its app to thwart
authorities attempting to collect evidence
of local law-breaking.

CEQA and the California housing crisis

buses of the California

are aggravating the state’s
housing crisis, according to a recent
study by Los Angeles lawyers
Holland & Knight.
With more than half of renters and
over a third of homeowners with
mortgages in California cost-bur-
dened by housing — spending more
than 30 percent of household
incomes on housing — and many
forced to commute long distances to
work to live in affordable housing,
California’s housing crisis has made
life difficult even for those with
well-paying, professional jobs.
There are many reasons for this
situation beyond supply and demand.
Among them are overly restrictive
and antiquated government zoning
regulations that artificially limit
opportunities for development,
“affordable housing” regulations and
requirements that reduce incentives
for homebuilding and other govern-
ment restrictions or obstacles.
CEQA, passed in 1970 to ensure
environmental impacts of proposed
projects are considered by state and
local agencies and that identified
impacts are mitigated, has unfortu-
nately become a tool to block or
delay projects regardless of whether

percent and benefit both property

It is a fact that we have adequate

there are significant or legitimate

In recent years, housing develop-
ments have been the most frequent
target of CEQA lawsuits, with the
chief result being the blocking of
new housing developments and the
discouraging of others.
Holland & Knight conducted
reviews of CEQA lawsuits from
2010-12 and most recently in 2013-
15, finding that challenges to hous-
ing developments actually increased
from the first period to the second
even as the state’s housing crisis
intensified.
This issue was unfortunately well
on display locally. CEQA lawsuits in
the Los Angeles region (encompass-
ing Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside,
San Bernardino, Ventura and Imperial
counties) accounted for 38 percent of
CEQA lawsuits statewide in 2013-
15, up from 33 percent in 2010-12.
Whereas 24 percent of CEQA law-
suits statewide targeted housing
projects, in the L.A. region, more
than 33 percent of CEQA lawsuits
targeted housing projects, the study
says. These lawsuits targeted a com-
bined 13,946 housing units and a
200-bed homeless shelter in just the
L.A. region alone in 2013-15.

proponents that CEQA is needed to
protect low-income and minority
communities from environmental
harms, Holland & Knight note that
housing lawsuits in the L.A. region
“disproportionately target new hous-
ing in whiter, wealthier, healthier
communities,” with a vast propor-
tion of CEQA lawsuits filed in places
like West Los Angeles. Overall, 78
percent of CEQA lawsuits in 2013-
15 were filed outside of areas desig-
nated environmentally disadvan-
taged communities by the California
Environmental Protection Agency.
The overall result of the abuse of
CEQA by often wealthy NIMBYs is
the driving up of the cost of hous-
ing, the shifting of populations
elsewhere and potentially even
greater environmental harms on bal-
ance due to longer commutes.
To ameliorate these problems,
Holland & Knight suggests ideas
like ending anonymous CEQA law-
suits and eliminating duplicative
lawsuits against projects that have
already completed CEQA processes.
These would be a good start.
Lawmakers serious about tackling
the housing crisis cannot shy away
from at least considering CEQA
reform. The longer they wait, the
more the public will suffer the con-
sequences.

are coming directly from Redwood
City resident tax dollars. I have no
doubt that this will end up being
something that some developer is
drooling over.
Most residents don’t even know

mind). Just following suit like other
Peninsula cities, Redwood City is
going nuts building, building, build-
ing. Every available space is turned
over to greedy developers who could
care less about the values of the
community. Many people are saying
good riddance which makes living
here even less desirable.
It baffles me that the line between
“progress” and deconstruction of a
community is decided by a small
group of City Council members with
misguided agendas. We must vote
them off of the council.

It’s going to rain
G
ov. Jerry Brown was his typical austere self
this week in announcing his $137.5 billion
budget proposal that included the essential
provision that the state would keep on its current path
of spending and shovel away money to a rainy-day fund.
The governor is proposing to top off that fund with a
$3.5 billion infusion bringing it up to $13.5 billion —
or 10 percent of the state’s overall budget.
Keep in mind that this is the amount required by
2014’s Proposition 2, which stated the state should put
away 1.5 percent of the general fund every year until it
reaches 10 percent. So it’s kind of the minimum
required. While many might be patting themselves on
the backs for making it to 10 percent, it’s also impor-
tant to keep in mind that the state’s budget shortfall in
the 2009-10 budget year was
$40 billion and the state still
has a wall of debt accumulated
in the past 10 years that is
about $6 billion — down
from a high of $35 billion.
The state budget is strong
and holds a healthy surplus.
But as anyone knows in
California that could change
on a dime. Might I be so bold
as to suggest that we might
even want to pay more into
the rainy-day fund and into
the unfunded liabilities with
this one-time surplus? It seems that Brown’s frugal
nature is seen as the budgetary backstop and that legis-
lators can pull him to spend more money to make a deal.
However, there should be more attention paid to the
rainy-day fund and the ongoing debt. Consider similar
to a savings account and credit card bill. If you were to
get a healthy bonus because your company is doing
well, would you spend all of it on new obligations or
would you be smart to immediately pay off your credit
card and sock some money away for a rainy day?
I think we all know the mature and responsible per-
son’s answer. Brown has been a strong fiscal steward of
California’s money and this particular budget is no dif-
ferent. I worry, however, about the next governor who
might think Brown was a nervous Nelly and a cheap-
skate. Gubernatorial front-runner Gavin Newsom has
assessed certain new proposed programs as doable as
long as there is political courage, but such courage
doesn’t pay the bills and certainly won’t help in another
recession that is overdue.
Some Republican legislators suggest that some of the
budget surplus be returned to residents. While that is
fine and dandy in theory, it won’t be enough to make
much of a difference for the individual and the state is
nowhere near such a condition to consider such a pro-
posal.
In 2000, there was money flowing in and out of
Sacramento. New retirement plans were proposed and
debt obligations spiked as the economy tanked. In
2004, voters passed Proposition 58 which provided for
a rainy-day fund of about 5 percent of the state’s budget
as a way to pass long-term bonds to pay off the state’s
debts. It was a start of something that was a long time
coming but the time passed since our debt ballooned
means an entire generation of Californians is accus-
tomed to operating with it.
But think of what we could do without it. We would no
longer have to pay into it and could spend that money
elsewhere. If we put even more money into our rain-day
fund, increased by 2014’s Proposition 2, we could save
ourselves from painful cuts when our economy falls. It
would solidify our budget planning process and enable
legislators to actually begin long-term plans like truly
addressing early education and housing with stable fund-
ing sources.
The governor’s budget proposal begins the budgetary

Walmart boosts starting pay,

closing dozens of Sam’s Clubs
NEW YORK — Walmart confirmed
Thursday that it is closing 10 percent of its
Sam’s Club warehouse stores — a move that
a union-backed group estimated could cost
thousands of jobs — on the same day the
company announced that it was boosting its
starting salary for U.S. workers and handing
out bonuses.
The world’s largest private employer said
it was closing 63 of its 660 Sam’s Clubs
over the next few weeks, with some shut
already. Up to 12 are being converted into
distribution centers to handle online orders,
Business brief
the company said late Thursday.
It did not disclose how many people would
lose their jobs, but said some workers may
be placed at other Walmart locations.
Making Change at Walmart, a campaign
backed by the United Food and Commercial
Workers International Union, estimates
that 150 to 160 people work at each Sam’s
Club store, meaning the closures could
affect about 10,000 people.
Lauren Fitz, 22, said she was at her other
job as a church secretary when a colleague
texted to say that the Sam’s Club where they
both worked in Loveland, Ohio, had closed.
Local governments won’t say
what they’re offering Amazon
By Josh Cornfield
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
PHILADELPHIA — State and local govern-
ments have been more than happy to play up
the amenities they think make their loca-
tions the best choice for Amazon’s second
headquarters. But many of them will not dis-
close the tax breaks or other financial incen-
tives they are offering the online giant.
More than 15 states and cities, including
Chicago, Cleveland and Las Vegas, refused
requests from The Associated Press to detail
the promises they made to try to lure the
company.
Among the reasons given: Such informa-
tion is a “trade secret” and disclosing it
would put them at a competitive disadvan-
tage.
“We want to be in the best possible posi-
tion to negotiate. We don’t want the whole
world to know our strategy,” Democratic
Gov. Gina Raimondo of Rhode Island said in
a radio interview.
Amazon’s search for a second headquarters
city has triggered an unprecedented competi-
tion among governments around North
America to attract a $5 billion project that
promises to create 50,000 jobs. The retail-
ing behemoth has made clear that tax breaks
and grants will be a big factor in its deci-
sion. It received 238 proposals and said it
will announce a decision sometime this year.
Public records laws around the country
vary, but when courting businesses, govern-
ments generally aren’t required to disclose
tax breaks and other incentives during the
negotiating phase.

Ecuador’s Foreign Minister Maria Fernanda Espinosa gestures while addressing the media
next to vice ministers Rolando Suarez, left, and Jose Luis Jacome, right, in Quito, Ecuador.
Ecuador grants nationality to
WikiLeaks founder Assange
By Gonzolo Solano
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
QUITO, Ecuador — Ecuador has granted
citizenship to WikiLeaks founder Julian
Assange after more than five years of living
in asylum at the nation’s embassy in
London, officials announced Thursday.
Foreign Minister Maria Fernanda
Espinosa said officials accepted Assange’s
request for naturalization in December, and
they continue to look for a long-term reso-
lution to a situation that has vexed officials
since 2012.
“What naturalization does is provide the
asylum seeker another layer of protection,”
Espinosa said.
Ecuador gave Assange asylum after he
sought refuge in the embassy to avoid extra-
dition to Sweden for investigation of sex-
related claims. Sweden dropped the case, but
Assange has remained in the embassy
because he is still subject to arrest in Britain
for jumping bail.
He also fears a possible U.S. extradition
request based on his leaking of classified
State Department documents.
The Australian-born Assange posted a
photograph of himself wearing a yellow
Ecuadorean national soccer team jersey on
Instagram Wednesday and his name now
appears in the Andean country’s national
registry.
The new citizenship status, however,
WORLD
REUTERS
appears to change little
for Assange in the imme-
diate future. He would
still need to alert British
authorities of any move-
ment outside the
embassy.
“Even if he has two or
three nationalities, the
Julian Assange United Kingdom will
continue in its efforts
against him,” said Fredy Rivera, an expert
in foreign affairs at the Latin American
Faculty of Social Sciences in Ecuador.
Espinosa said Ecuador is trying to make
Assange a member of its diplomatic team,
which would grant him additional rights
under the Vienna Convention on
Diplomatic Relations, including special
legal immunity and safe passage.
Britain’s Foreign Office said earlier
Thursday it has rejected Ecuador’s request
to grant him diplomatic status in the U.K.
“Ecuador knows that the way to resolve
this issue is for Julian Assange to leave
the embassy to face justice,” the office
said.
Though protected by Ecuador, the rela-
tionship between Assange and nation’s
leaders has at times been dicey. Ecuador
has repeatedly urged Assange not to inter-
fere in the affairs of other countries follow-
ing his frequent online comments on inter-
national issues.
After 2017 breakthrough, 2018
is when Brexit will get tough
By Jill Lawless
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LONDON — After months of spats and
false starts, Britain and the European Union
ended 2017 by agreeing to have an amicable
divorce. In 2018, they have to find a way to
live together in the future — and that’s when
things could get complicated.
With the U.K. due to leave the bloc in just
over a year, the fates of Britain and of Prime
Minister Theresa May depend on whether
the two sides strike a friendly deal, a frosty
deal or no deal at all.
“This year is going to be messy,” said
Maike Bohn of The3Million, a group that
successfully lobbied to make the rights of
EU citizens in Britain one of the dominant
issues in the first round of Brexit talks. “Not
everything is resolved and there are some
big, crucial gaps.”
There was a Brexit breakthrough in
December, when the EU declared that “suffi-
cient progress” had been made on citizens’
rights, Britain’s financial obligations and
other divorce terms to start negotiating
future relations, including trade.
It’s a vast task that means setting rules for
Final day of talks on possible
German government coalition
BERLIN — Chancellor Angela Merkel
expressed confidence Thursday that her con-
servative Union bloc
would be able to find
enough common ground
with the center-left
Social Democrats to
move toward formal
coalition talks.
Heading in to final day
negotiations, Merkel told
reporters in Berlin that
Angela Merkel “large obstacles in the
path” remained but that
she intended to push for new compromises.
“The people expect us to find solutions,”
she said.
Following a dismal result in Germany’s
Sept. 24 election the Social Democrats
vowed they would not extend their “grand
coalition” of Germany’s biggest parties with
Merkel, but reconsidered after her attempts to
form a coalition with two smaller parties col-
lapsed.

everything from trade in
automotive parts to intel-
ligence-sharing. Time is
tight: A withdrawal treaty
and an outline of future
relations need to be ready
by the fall, so that EU
member states and the
European Parliament can
Theresa May approve them before
Brexit day on March 29,
2019. And the two sides have differing —
even contradictory — visions.
Britain wants a frictionless free-trade deal
with the EU that allows goods to flow freely
and the U.K.’s huge financial services sector
to keep doing business across Europe.
The EU insists Britain cannot “cherry
pick” benefits of EU membership, such as
access to its borderless single market,
without any of the responsibilities. EU
chief negotiator Michel Barnier said this
week that the bloc was willing to strike a
deal covering “security, defense and for-
eign policy, as well as justice and home
affairs and include some sectors such as
aviation and fisheries” — but not financial
services.

Eight earthquakes strike along
Iran-Iraq border, rattle Baghdad
TEHRAN, Iran — A series of eight earth-
quakes hit the Iran-Iraq border area and rat-
tled Baghdad on Thursday, apparent after-
shocks of a temblor that struck the moun-
tainous region in November and killed over
530 people. Four people suffered minor
injuries in Iran, state television reported.
The U.S. Geological Survey said seven of
the quakes struck near the Iraqi city of
Mandali, 75 miles northeast of the Iraqi cap-
ital. Mandali is right on the border between
the two nations. The eighth hit near Mehran
in western Iran, about 55 miles southeast of
Mandali along the sparsely populated
Zagros Mountains that divide Iran and Iraq.
All the earthquakes struck within an hour
of each other, beginning at 0659 GMT. Six
had a preliminary magnitude of at least 5,
while two registered at magnitude 4.
Scientists consider earthquakes of magni-
tude 5 as moderate.

Majority of Egypt’s lawmakers want president to run again
By Hamza Hendawi
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CAIRO — More than 500 of Egypt’s 596
lawmakers have signed “recommendations”
supporting a re-election bid by President
Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi, even before he has for-
mally announced his candidacy, according to
news reports published Thursday.
El-Sissi is considered virtually certain to
run in the March 26-28 election and to win a
second four-year term. So far, no candidate

ty Parks Director Jonathan Gervais. “It’s
going to be a really neat experience to
cross the dam and have these great views.”
The new trail winds south from the dam
and is a rare chance to open another por-
tion of the protected watershed to visitors.
There have been several delays to when
authorities will be able to welcome
motorists and pedestrians back to the
unique portion of road that hovers above
the dam’s spillway. The reconstruction has
led to a yearslong closure of this section of
Highway 35, also known as Skyline
Boulevard.
The project offers recreational as well as
safety benefits, and has involved collabo-
ration between the county, Pacific Gas and
Electric and the San Francisco Public
Utilities Commission.
The SFPUC owns and operates the dam as
well as the watershed connected by miles
of tunnels to the Hetch Hetchy Reservoir.
The utility completed its work in 2012 to
meet state and federal standards requiring it
more than double the spillway’s capacity.
PG&E’s work involves relocating a high-
voltage transmission line that powers
communities in San Mateo and San
Francisco counties. Slated to begin con-

The county’s responsibility has been to
reinstate the road atop the spillway,
realign the approaches and create the new
route about 7 feet higher than before. Once
complete, the bridge will also include a
new 15-foot-wide pedestrian trail safely
protected from two lanes of vehicular traf-
fic, said Gil Tourel, a county engineer over-
seeing the project.
The new 626-foot-long, 51.5-foot-wide
bridge is where the reservoir meets the San
Mateo Creek.   Built in 1888, the concrete Crystal
“The public will be able to enjoy the
view in a safer setting,” Tourel said.
But visitors could have to wait before
taking a scenic stroll atop a 130-year-old
dam.
Its opening has been stunted for a variety
of reasons and just last year officials had
anticipated reopening by the end of 2017.
At one point, federal funding for such proj-
ects was frozen. Construction on the
bridge was temporarily delayed while the
SFPUC finished up work on a major trans-
mission line nearby. Most recently, during
the bridge’s construction contractors dis-
covered the actual dam extended further
under the road than was originally
believed, prompting design changes,
Tourel explained.
“It’s an extensive planning and coordi-
nated effort between the county and the
SFPUC and PG&E and the contractor. Each
party has to work and coordinate with the
others to ensure the project keeps moving
forward,” Tourel said.
A PG&E spokesperson echoed the need

2013 ouster of an Islamist president.
Under the constitution, to qualify to run,
any would-be candidate must gather formal
recommendations from at least 20 elected
members of parliament, or alternatively
25,000 recommendations from voters, with a
minimum of 1,000 each in 15 of Egypt’s 29
provinces. Rather than waiting for el-Sissi to
seek recommendations, the lawmakers rushed
to offer them first.

importance of the project and meeting cur-
rent dam safety regulations.
“Given the dam’s importance to our sys-
tem and location, this was a top priority
project for the water system improvement
program,” Dan Wade, SFPUC director of
water capital projects and programs, said
in an email.
Upgrading history
Springs Dam is marveled for its unique
three-dimensional molded brick design and
has needed few improvements in its histo-
ry. In fact, located just 400 feet from the
San Andreas Fault line, it’s withstood both
the 1906 and 1989 earthquakes with no
loss of structural integrity, according to
the SFPUC.
But state and federal mandates prompted
a project to increase capacity of the dam’s
spillway. Now, it must be able to withstand
a release of up to 25,000 cubic feet of water
per second, instead of its prior approxi-
mate 10,000 cubic feet per second capaci-
ty. That resulted in the SFPUC investing
$35 million to widen the spillway from 89
feet to 208 feet, according to the utility.
The structure’s unique brick design was
replicated by the federal government for
construction of the Hoover Dam and tests
have shown the pioneering concrete mix-
ture used at Crystal Springs is getting
stronger, the SFPUC said previously.
The man-made structure is wedged into a
canyon to enable the SFPUC to store rain-
fall and water from the pristine Hetch
Hetchy. Years ago the SFPUC was required
feet of retail space, 18 acres of parks and
open space and a private high school. The
first phase of the transformation of total
160-acre former horse racing track site
included the city’s new police station,
Franklin Templeton Investments’ headquar-
ters, the Kaiser Permanente Medical Offices
and a Whole Foods Market.
While construction is underway at Bay
Meadows, Caltrain is also in the midst of a
massive project to raise the tracks above
grade at 25th, 28th and 31st avenues, as
well as relocate the Hillsdale Caltrain sta-
tion a few blocks to the north.
The long-planned transit-oriented devel-
opment is centrally located in Silicon
Valley and sandwiched between Highway

showed smiling lawmakers standing in a half
circle with copies of their recommendations
in hand. The Egyptian parliament is packed
with el-Sissi supporters and has since its
election acted more like a rubber-stamp
chamber.
Hundreds of advertisements have been put
up across Cairo imploring el-Sissi to run. “So
you can build it,” is the catch phrase of one
such campaigns, alluding to the president’s
focus on overhauling Egypt’s infrastructure
and his ambitious program to overhaul the
battered economy and build mega projects.

capacity requirements, and has kept
Crystal Springs lower due to a unique plant
sprouting up along the rim of the reservoir.
The SFPUC is now in the process of
replanting the endangered fountain thistle
plant before slowly raising the reservoir
over the next decade.
The dam’s storied history and age may
also be a factor in the public’s ability to
enjoy a scenic view after the project’s com-
pletion. It’s not common to have a road
atop a spillway, but officials have long
planned to reopen it to motorists and
pedestrians.
Construction of the new bridge, not
including design costs, has a more than
$13 million price tag and even the new
pedestrian trail doesn’t come cheap. The
county is applying for a $750,000 grant
that will cover about of half the cost for its
Close the Gap Trail Project — an 800-foot
path connecting the bridge to the new
South of Dam Trail section.
Gervais, the parks director overseeing
the trail project, said he hopes the opening
of the new trail will align with visitors
being welcomed back along the bridge.
The new mile-long stretch of paved trail
will enable visitors to get a bit closer to
the SFPUC’s protected reservoir, although
people will still be kept behind a fence.
While most of the expansive watershed is
off limits to the public, the new segment of
trail and reopening of the bridge will be a
recreational asset, Gervais said.
“It’s going to increase use and enjoy-
ment of this already popular facility,” he
said. 
office space at stations 1 and 5. Those two
smaller office buildings are approved for
about 95,000 square feet of new develop-
ment each. But the developer now seeks to
nearly double the square footage and reduce
previously approved ground-floor retail
space, according to plans submitted with
the city.
But a number of residents in surrounding
neighborhoods have already begun to raise
concerns about the proposal. Some
expressed frustration as they feel squeezed
by an influx of development that’s affect-
ing parking, traffic and other quality of life
issues.
A community meeting was held in
November and the proposal is still being
reviewed by city staff before a formal pub-
lic hearing is scheduled. With only a por-
tion of the planned office space complete
and occupied, it’s unclear how the proposal
to expand the development will fare with
the community and city officials.

It’s halftime
for the NBA
By Tim Reynolds
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
MIAMI — It’s halftime in the NBA.
Officially, Thursday night’s Cleveland at
Toronto game was the 615th on the NBA
schedule for this season — the exact midway
point on the 1,230-game regular-season
slate. Everyone tends to call what follows
the All-Star Game as the second half, but it’s
more like two-thirds of the season that will
be in the books before that showcase in Los
Angeles next month.
Here’s a look at 10 storylines for the sec-
ond half:
TRADE DEADLINE
Always a big deal, this seems even bigger
this year.
The deadline is Feb. 8, 15 days earlier than
a year ago and that means teams will have to
choose to be a buyer or a
seller before the All-Star
break.
Watch the Los Angeles
Lakers, who will be on a
free-agent spending spree
this summer and might
want to deal now.
DeAndre Jordan and
Nikola Mirotic are
DeAndre known to be trade targets
Jordan for several clubs, and
New Orleans might decide
to shop DeMarcus Cousins.
The guess? The market will move super
slowly until about Feb. 6, when several
NBA general managers will risk arm injuries
by holding their phones to their ear for 66
consecutive hours.
PLAYOFF WATCH
There will be races all the way to the end.
Golden State, Houston, San Antonio,
Minnesota, Boston, Toronto and Cleveland
can go ahead and start printing playoff tick-
ets. Going into Thursday, seven teams were
within five games of each other for the final

It was an unlikely run in that Terra Nova
had to do most of it without its starting for-
ward on the floor, as senior Numi Saini was
in foul trouble and had to sit. So,
Summerville went with his best defensive
five in senior guard Venus Pascua, junior for-
ward Morgan Fillipo, junior guard Aaliyah
Haynes, freshman guard Kapua Wong Hin
and 6-5 junior center Kenady Armstrong.

Ajayi ready to give Eagles a ride on Jay Train
By Rob Maaddi
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
PHILADELPHIA — Jay Ajayi is rested,
refreshed and ready.
The Philadelphia Eagles can jump aboard
the Jay Train when they host Atlanta in an
NFC divisional playoff Saturday and try to
ride Ajayi to the conference title game.
Ajayi will see his first action in 19 days
when he lines up against the Falcons (11-6).
He sat out the final game before enjoying
his third bye week of the season — one with
Miami and two with Philadelphia (13-3).
“I feel really good, like, I feel really
good,” said Ajayi, who has been bothered
by knee issues. “No. 1 seed team with an
opportunity to go get a Super Bowl. I’m
grateful, I’m blessed, I’m excited for this
opportunity because it’s all in front of us
and if we really take advantage of what we
want to do and execute how we can, we can
get it done.”
Two weeks before he joined the Eagles,
NFL to ‘look into’ whether the
Raiders violated Rooney Rule
By Josh Dubow
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ALAMEDA — The NFL said Thursday it
will investigate whether the Oakland
Raiders violated the
“Rooney Rule” when
they hired Jon Gruden as
coach.
The Fritz Pollard
Alliance called for the
investigation on
Wednesday out of con-
cern that Raiders owner
Mark Davis came to an
Mark Davis agreement with Gruden
before the team inter-
viewed any minority candidates as required
by the NFL since 2003.
NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy said in a
statement that the NFL will “look into
this.”
The Fritz Pollard Alliance is dedicated to
promoting diversity and equality of job
opportunity in the coaching, front office
and scouting staffs of NFL teams.
Davis said Tuesday at the news conference
introducing Gruden as the team’s new coach
that he had been trying to make the move
SPORTS
Ajayi ran for 130 yards in Miami’s 20-17
win over Atlanta on Oct. 15. He hasn’t car-
ried the ball as much in Philadelphia, but he
might have to be a workhorse this week.
“Same guys. My mentality hasn’t
changed, ” Ajayi said. “My mindset is
always downhill, attacking, try to punish
guys. One-on-one, it’s all about not being
tackled.”
Ajayi was the main man in Miami, aver-
aging 20 carries per game. He had 465 yards
rushing, an average of 3.4 yards and no
touchdowns. Last year, Ajayi went to the Pro
Bowl after running for 1,272 yards, includ-
ing three 200-yard games.
After coming to Philly, he adjusted to
being part of a rotation. Ajayi shared the
backfield with LeGarrette Blount and Corey
Cement and didn’t get more than 15 carries
in any game following the trade.
Ajayi finished with 408 yards rushing,
one touchdown and an average of 5.8 yards
per carry in seven games for the Eagles.
Blount led the team with 766 yards rushing
for six years and finally believed it would
happen after a meeting in Philadelphia on
Christmas Eve, the day before Gruden
worked a game between the Raiders and
Eagles on ESPN.
“I felt pretty confident that he was all-in,”
Davis said. “And that’s the term that we were
using in our discussions and everything, are
you all-in? And I never wavered from all-in.
And this time he didn’t waver, either.”
Davis fired Jack Del Rio a week later and
the team officially hired Gruden on Jan. 6.
Davis also said he wouldn’t have fired Del
Rio if he didn’t believe Gruden would sign
on as coach.
“I believe that I would’ve sat down with
Jack and we would’ve figured out coordina-
tors and assistant coaches and things like
that and try to figure out how to reinvigo-
rate the franchise through Jack,” he said.
Raiders general manager Reggie
McKenzie said Tuesday he interviewed two
minority candidates before Gruden’s hiring
was announced. Those candidates were

tor Tee Martin.

“I’m excited. I’m already a round further
than I’ve been in my career,” said Ajayi,
who had 33 yards rushing in a wild-card loss
to Pittsburgh last year. “For the guys
who’ve been to the playoffs and lost, those
memories of getting bounced should defi-
nitely fuel you. You should have that chip,
want to get there and want to bring it home
and that starts this Saturday.”
The Eagles are the first No. 1 seed to be an
underdog in their first playoff game. The
sixth-seeded Falcons are 3-point favorites.
“It’s not insulting. That’s the story line
right now, ” Ajayi said . “Without 11

five Tigers righted the shooting woes of the
first half.  Terra Nova shot just 25 percent (8
of 32) in the opening half. In the second
half, the Tigers were good for 38.8 percent
(14 of 36), including a clutch 3-point spree
to end the scoring streak.
The only timeout Summerville called dur-
ing the streak was after Armstrong (21
points, 12 rebounds and six blocked
shots) scored to close the EC lead to 40-38.
That’s when the Tigers coach put Saini back
on the floor.
“We could see it was almost like it was cav-
ing in,” Summerville said.
It turned out to be the finishing touch on
the comeback from 17 points down, as Saini
(11 points, nine rebounds) tied it. The senior
then grabbed a defensive rebound at the
other end and pushed the action, kicking for
an assist to Wong Hin on a 3-pointer to give
Terra Nova the lead.
“They were fired up,” Summerville said.
“Once we hit that 3-pointer, the bench erupt-
ed.”
It was the first of three straight 3s on con-
secutive possessions, as Pascua and Saini
converted as well. Game over.
Pascua finished with seven points, five
assists and five rebounds. Hin had six
points, 11 rebounds and four steals.
The win was Terra Nova’s fifth straight
road game, a schedule Summerville purpose-
ly constructed in response to the Tigers’ fail-
ure to make the Central Coast Section play-
offs last year, snapping a streak of 38 con-
secutive years that Terra Nova qualified for
the postseason. The last time the Tigers did-
n’t make the postseason was in 1977, the
inaugural season of the CCS playoffs.
“When you’re just playing at home you
get comfortable and I didn’t want them com-
fortable this year,” Summerville said.
It was a tough stretch in which the Tigers
went 3-2, with wins over Santa Cruz 45-44

Scheduling issues hamper the NBA
NBA’s European expansion plans
By Mattias Karen
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LONDON — If Adam Silver learned one thing
from his latest trip to London, it’s that the
appetite for more NBA games remains huge
around Europe — and the rest of the world.
And while the league commissioner would
love to satisfy that appetite, there is still an
Atlantic-sized gap between the NBA’s desire for
overseas expansion and
what’s actually doable.
So while the NFL contin-

For MVP, the vote could be close: Harden,
LeBron James, Stephen Curry and
Antetokounmpo all clearly deserve consid-
eration.
THE PROCESS
No longer the league’s No. 1 losers, the
Philadelphia 76ers are right in the mix for an
East playoff spot.
They’re a very respectable 10-10 on the
road, but need to figure things out at home.
The Sixers are only 9-9 in Philadelphia this
season.
Reason for concern: Philadelphia entered
Thursday 1-5 in games decided by three
points or less, and 1-7 in games where it
doesn’t score 100 points.
Reason for optimism: They’re holding
teams to 44 percent shooting this season,
and the defense keeps looking better.
ALL-STAR
It’s a new format for the All-Star Game this
season, with captains picking teams in what
will surely lead to some wildly overblown
stories about how this person didn’t pick
that person and whatever.
Most players in the league will get about a
week off, and everyone is assured at least
three full off days between games — after the
All-Star Game on Feb. 18, no teams are back
in action until Feb. 22.

Over-ripe bananas? Then
make better pancakes
By Elizabeth Karmel
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
I hate to throw over-ripe bananas away. It
is such a wasted opportunity for fresh fra-
grant banana bread. But, there is only so
much banana bread that one can eat. That is
why I asked myself, what else can I make
with over-ripe bananas?
And, since it was Sunday, banana pan-
cakes popped into my head. I had never
made banana pancakes with over-ripe
bananas. I usually make them with slices of
firm, slightly green bananas because that is
how I like to eat fresh bananas. As it turned
out, the over-ripe bananas are way better for
pancakes.
I also wanted to try a pancake technique
that a friend of mine swears by. You separate

into the batter at different times. It is sup-
posed to make the pancakes lighter. I am
not sure that it made that much difference but
it is easy to do, doesn’t take any extra time
like beating egg whites, and the resulting
pancakes were light and fluffy and tooth-
some all at once.
The recipe is pretty basic with both sour
milk and cream used as the liquid. I had
cream on hand, but you could use half and
half. I opted for cream because my milk was
2 percent and not whole milk. If I had had
whole milk in the fridge, I would have used
whole milk and half and half. I also soured
my milk with white vinegar, but you could
substitute buttermilk for the milk and vine-
gar combination.
A touch of nutmeg accented the ripe
banana. I mashed the bananas as if I was
making banana bread and added it to the bat-
ter right before I made the pancakes. The
result was incredible — almost like banana

bread pancakes. I love how the essence of
banana was evident through the entire pan-
cake but there were no discernable chunks of
fruit.
Most pancake recipes instruct you to heat
oil or melt butter in a skillet and “fry” the
pancake. I prefer to cook them on a dry non-
stick skillet so that they brown and bubble
without any extra fat. If you do a side-by-
side taste test, you can really see the differ-
ence. One looks like the top of a grilled que-
sadilla and the other resembles a baked
good. The non-fried version is softer and
more delicate in texture. The fried has a
slightly crunchy top and is a bit greasy.
Neither is right or wrong, it’s all a matter of
preference.
It’s important to serve the pancakes with
a good salted butter to bring out the banana
flavor — I like Kate’s Homemade Butter or
Kerrygold — and real maple syrup. Other
good additions are mini chocolate chips,
dried coconut, toasted walnuts and pecans.
These pancakes are good for breakfast, but
even better served as “Breakfast for Dinner”

MUSEUM GOTTA SEE ‘UM
By Susan Cohn
DAILY JOURNAL SENIOR CORRESPONDENT
AMERICA IN COLOR: 1 9 4 0 -1 9 4 3 ,
AT THE SAN FRANCISCO AIRPORT
MUSEUM. Beginning in the early 1930s,
the United States government commis-
sioned a group of photographers under the
Farm Security Administration (FSA) to doc-
ument the daily lives, working conditions
and plight of Americans. Many of the result-
ing photographs, such as Dorothea Lange’s
image of the migrant mother, Florence
Owens Thompson, would become iconic of
the era and engrained in the nation’s collec-
tive consciousness. While the 1930s are
often remembered in black and white, the
decade also marked the advent of
Kodachrome, Kodak’s first commercially
available color-positive film. At the time,
color photography was largely considered a
medium of advertising and commerce.
Artists and documentarians had their reser-
vations about using it — the film was diffi-
cult to work with, and the developing
process was complicated and expensive.
While working for the FSA, later the
Office of War Information (OWI), a number
of photographers including Jack Delano,
John Vachon and Russell Lee began experi-
menting with the use of Kodachrome in the
field, producing an archive of approximate-
ly 16,000 photographs between 1939 and
1945. Though dwarfed by the Office’s
library of black-and-white images made dur-
ing the same time period — over one
100, 000 — these lesser-known photo-
graphs offer a departure from the mono-
chrome images that we often associate with
this period of the country’s history.

How the cauliflower can morph into movie night snack food
By Melissa d’Arabian
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Years ago, I was attempting to reverse my
daughter Valentine’s disdain for cauliflower.
She was always my veggie-loving kiddo, so
I was stumped by her dislike of one my
favorites. Who doesn’t love roasted cauli-
flower florets, with those crispy
caramelized golden edges?
She loved artichoke — pulling apart the
leaves and scraping them on her teeth. So,
why not create a pull-apart version of cauli-
flower? I roasted it whole on a lower tem-
perature (about 350 F) for nearly an hour,
and then pumped up the heat to 400 F for
some browning. I then seasoned the whole
head of cauliflower with a little lemon butter
or cheese. The idea worked: all four of my
kids had fun pulling apart the cauliflower,
eating little florets like finger food.

Over the years, cauliflower morphed from
dinner table favorite to movie night snack
food, right alongside popcorn. The recipe
has changed a little: I’ve found that steam-
ing the cauliflower a few minutes first cuts
the cook-time in half and the florets are eas-
ier to pull apart.
And, I’ve upped my seasoning, for exam-
ple slathering on a garlicky cheese mixture
spiked with just a touch of hot sauce to
remind me of the buffalo wings of my col-
lege days, when I thought nothing of down-
ing a half-dozen fried wings, skin and all.
With today’s recipe for Cheesy Pull-Apart
Whole Cauliflower, the high-cal buttery and
cheesy coating packs a garlic punch, even
though each serving has relatively little of
it, so healthy eating goals stay on track.

CHEESY PULL-APART
WHOLE CAULIFLOWER
Servings: 8
Start to finish: 30 minutes
1 medium head of cauliflower (about 1 1/2
pounds), trimmed of leaves
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, softened
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1/4 cup grated parmesan
2 cloves garlic, pressed or finely minced
1 tablespoon hot sauce or buffalo sauce
Preheat the oven to 400 F.
Turn the cauliflower upside down and gen-
tly cut out the bulk of the core, leaving a tri-
angle-shaped indentation at the bottom of
the cauliflower. Add an inch of salted water
to a large pot and bring to a boil. Place the
cauliflower right side up in the pot and
cover the pot to steam the cauliflower until
tender, but still firm (not mushy), about 7-
know that Knuckles begins with a K and not
an N.
Grant seems to be having the most fun
he’s had in years on screen as the overly
theatrical villain, who debates his devious
plans out loud with a room full of costumed
mannequins that he also provides the voic-
es for (Hamlet and Scrooge among them).
And there are some wonderfully fun digs at
the egotism of actors throughout, including
when Mrs. Bird explains that actors are
“some of the most evil, devious people on
the planet.”
Sally Hawkins also gets a nice spotlight
as the eager-to-believe matriarch who is
compelling enough to make you really trust
that she’s possibly gotten a lead from a
drop batter in heaping spoonfuls to the pan,
allowing room for the batter to spread out.
Unlike most recipes, I prefer not to “fry”
the pancakes in oil or butter. I like a drier
non-oily finish. If your skillet is non-stick,
this will not be a problem.
Cook for about 1-2 minutes, depending
on size. When the pancake begins to bub-
ble, use a thin off-set spatula to gently flip
to the other side. The pancake should be
golden brown, if the heat is too high, the
pancake will burn on the outside and be
uncooked on the inside. Cook on the other
side for another 2 minutes, or until the bot-
tom of the pancake is golden brown.

10 minutes, depending on the size and age
of the cauliflower. Test with a slim sharp
knife.
Once the cauliflower is done, remove it
from the pot and place on paper towels to
cool. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix
together the butter, mayonnaise, parmesan
cheese, garlic and hot sauce. Blot the cooled
cauliflower with paper towels. Coat the out-
side of the cauliflower with the cheesy mix-
ture, using your hands to coat the whole
head. Place the cauliflower on a baking tray
lined with foil or parchment. Bake until the
cauliflower is golden brown, about 15 min-
utes. Let cool a few minutes before serving.

newsstand parrot about who framed
Paddington.
Is it too lame to get wrapped up in the
messages in a kid’s film? “Paddington 2”
has a lot of worthy ones — the importance
of kindness, family, and, heck, even saving
money to get a thoughtful gift for someone
who means something to you.
It is a cheerful, sweet movie, where there
is no problem that a lovingly made mar-
malade sandwich won’t fix, and it’ll be sure
to leave kids and adults smiling and even
wiping a few tears away at the end.
“Paddington,” a Warner Bros. release, is
rated PG by the Motion Picture Association
of America for “some action and mild rude
humor.” Running time: 103 minutes. Three
and a half stars out of four.

you cook all the batter. Scrape any stray

Serve as soon as possible, with salted butter
and maple syrup.
Chef’s Note: If cooking for a crowd, this
recipe can be easily doubled and extra pan-

TAXES
Continued from page 1
Raigoza wrote in his report.
The total tax levy includes about
$1.94 billion from the general 1 per-
cent tax, $231 million in various debt
service payments for bonds and $244
million in special charges, according
to the report. The controller is respon-
sible for distributing taxes to 131
local government agencies that
include the county, cities, school dis-
tricts and special districts.
Proposition 13 keeps the general
tax at 1 percent and allows assessed
property values to increase at no more
than 2 percent. Of the $1.94 billion
collected from the general tax,
schools will receive 46 percent, the
county gets 25 percent, 16 percent is
split amongst the cities, 11 percent
supports special districts and 2 per-
cent will be collected by former rede-
velopment agencies.
With the $2.4 billion pot of funds
based on last fiscal year, even more
could be available at the end of fiscal
year 2017-2018. The assessor last
year announced San Mateo County
property values topped the $200 bil-
lion mark for the first time following
a $15 billion year-over-year increase.
The next time the controller divvies
out property taxes, it will be based on
$206 billion in countywide assessed
property values.
In the meantime, local governments
are seeing revenue pour in from fiscal
year 16-17. The 1 percent general tax
also includes funds from vehicle

Puerto Rico fears post-Maria murder surge: 11 days, 32 slain
By Danica Coto
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CAROLINA, Puerto Rico — Before the
sun rose on the first day of 2018, someone
called 911 to report the charred, bullet-rid-
dled body of a man with a snake-like tattoo
on his left hand, lying beside a road in the
Puerto Rican town of Vega Baja.
The next day, two men were found dead
with their feet and hands bound in
Bayamon, a working-class city southwest
of the capital. Another man was shot to
death before dawn in nearby Vega Baja
while trying to stop thieves from stealing
his generator.
Thirty-two people have been slain in
Puerto Rico in the first 11 days of the year,
double the number killed over the same
period in 2017. If the surge proves to be
more than just a temporary blip, January
could be the most homicidal month on the
island in at least two years, adding a dan-
gerous new element to the island’s recovery
from Hurricane Maria, its worst disaster in
decades.
While the number of homicides did not
immediately spike in the weeks after the
hurricane struck on Sept. 20, police and
independent experts say many killings
appear at least partly related to its afteref-
fects.
The storm has plunged much of the island
into darkness, increased economic hard-
ship and contributed to a sickout by police,
all fueling lawlessness. What’s more, offi-
cials say a turf war has broken out among
drug gangs looking to grab territory after
the storm’s disruption.
“Hurricanes affect everyone, including
criminals,” said criminologist Jose Raul
Cepeda.
Already bankrupt, the island’s over-
whelmed government has fallen behind
with millions of dollars in overtime pay-
ments owed to police officers, who have
begun calling in sick in big numbers to
protest. The sickout has taken about 2,000
police off the street each day in a territory
that has 13,600 officers. It has forced more
than a dozen police stations to close for
several hours to a couple of days during the
holiday period because of a lack of officers.
No arrests have been made in the 32
killings this year.
Maria, which hit as a Category 4 storm,
destroyed much of the island’s electrical
grid. For those police on duty, the streets
are darker and more dangerous because
power has been restored to only 60 percent
of customers in the U.S. territory. Drug
gangs are fighting to re-establish territory
they lost in the disruption from Maria,
which pushed thousands from their homes
and left entire neighborhoods uninhabit-
able for weeks.
Police Chief Michelle Hernandez
resigned Monday after only a year on the
job, and local and federal authorities are
rushing from meeting to meeting to debate
how to best protect 3.3 million Puerto
Ricans, especially those still living in the
dark.
“This has been devastating,” said Ramon
Santiago, a retiree who lives less than a
block from where three bodies were discov-
ered Sunday near a basketball court. “You
can’t sleep peacefully in so much dark-
ness.”
Puerto Rico’s homicide rate is roughly 20
killings per 100,000 residents, compared
with 3.7 per 100,000 residents on the U.S.
mainland. In the last two years, Puerto Rico
has seen an average of 56 homicides a
month, a rate that held through December.
Then after New Year’s, the killings started
accelerating.
A man was shot Jan. 3 by a security guard
while trying to rob a bakery. Two double
homicides were reported Jan. 8 — two men
found shot to death in a car near an upscale
resort on the north coast and two other men
discovered sprawled on the street near a
public housing complex on the west coast.
Five killings alone were reported Monday,
in addition to three people wounded by gun-
fire during a shootout that night in the
parking lot of a strip mall in Bayamon.
This week, police say, the son of a former
judge was killed after trying to write down
the license plate number of a car whose
occupants were firing a gun.
“The lack of police is increasing Puerto
Rico’s safety issues,” said legislator Denis
Marquez, who was mugged at gunpoint last
month. “Everybody is feeling that insecu-
rity.”

Aviation Administration spokesman, said
in an email.
The tower ordered the Aeromexico Boeing
737 jet to circle around.
“Aeromexico 668 go around!” an air traf-
fic controller is heard saying on audio
recordings, the Mercury News in San Jose,
California, reported.
The pilot quickly acknowledges the
request to abort the landing: “Aeromexico
668 going around.”
The 11:45 a.m. event happened after the
Aeromexico jet was cleared on Runway 28R
28L. The R stands for right and the L stands
for left, Gregor said.
Crew on the Aeromexico jet were “cleared
to land on Runway 28R, and correctly read
back that clearance. When the plane was
about a mile from the airport, air traffic con-
trollers noticed the aircraft was lined up for
Runway 28L and instructed the crew to exe-
cute a missed approach,” Gregor said.
The plane later safely landed, Gregor said.
He said the FAA has opened an investiga-
tion.
Pilots and safety experts said air traffic
controllers did a good job when they quick-
ly redirected the Aeromexico jet at an airport
that many pilots say is notoriously difficult
to land at. The runways are close together
landing and taking off often share the same
runways.
“I would not say there’s cause for alarm,”
said retired airline captain and aviation safe-
ty expert John Cox. “The tower, air traffic
control, did a very good job, they sent the
Aeromexico flight around.”
Longtime American Airlines pilot Chris
Manno said “it seems a pilot got left and
right wrong in their head,” Manno said.
“The good news is the controller recognized
it and the system worked.”
An Air Canada flight crew landed in
October on one of the airport’s runways
despite repeated warnings to abort because a
controller believed another airplane had not
left the area yet.
on board nearly landed on one of the air-
port’s taxiways where four planes were wait-
ing to take off, prompting the FAA to issue
new rules for nighttime landings and con-
trol tower staffing at the airport.
“The third incident in six months, it does
raise an eyebrow,” said Doug Moss, an avi-
ation consultant and airline pilot. “All three
incidents were caused by different reasons,
but in general the San Francisco airport is
somewhat problematic, in that there’s a lot
of traffic in and out of there, and there’s not
enough runways, the runways they do have
are not separated laterally enough.”
He said officials have pushed for years to
expand the airport, but there is significant
community opposition.
