ROUGHLY 100 CHILDREN DIE IN AN AVERAGE FLU SEASON

The city of South San Francisco
is considering the inspection of
homes prior to them being placed
on the market to curb safety con-
cerns but Realtors argue the plan is
illegal and inefcient.
On Wednesday, the South San
Francisco City Council will hold a
special study session to discuss the
proposal to create a residential point
of sale safety inspection program.
Under the proposal, a property
owner would be required to have an
inspection for possible code viola-
tions prior to selling the home. An
inspection would cost $125 and
would include a second walk-
through if changes need to be made,
according to a staff report by Fire
Chief Phil White. Such a program,
he wrote, would help curb ongoing
building violations which cause
safety concerns.
Requiring the inspection to
occur at the point of sale is recom-
mended because this provides the
best opportunity to identify and cor-
rect conditions that represent a seri-
ous threat to the health and welfare
of the homes new occupants, or the
public, by virtue of its unsafe, dan-
gerous or hazardous nature, as well
as ensure full disclosure of other
conditions which are a violation of
local or state code, that will need
xing, White wrote in the report.
The San Mateo County
Association of Realtors, on the
other hand, describes the proposal
as creating warrantless inspections
that can result in tens of thousands
of dollars in nes for homeowners.
If the city is hoping to improve
health and welfare, the proposal
seems ineffective, said Steve

Private Seton Medical Center,
county transportation agency
SamTrans and parks advocates were
among those asking county ofcials
yesterday for a piece of the $60 mil-
lion annual sales tax passed by vot-
ers in November.
The money was sought for seis-
mic upgrades, worker rehiring, para-
transit trips, a dedicated naturalist
and much-needed infrastructure
maintenance staved off by years of
cuts and a structural decit.
The tax, which increases the coun-
ty rate to 8.75 percent, begins April 1.
The Board of Supervisors wont
make any hard and fast decisions
about where to allocate the funds
until a Feb. 12 public workshop but
yesterday began the process by
offering up their priorities and hear-
ing from groups who hope they
make the cut.
The request by Seton Medical
Center, a private facility in Daly
City, was no surprise; the November
ballot specically listed the earth-
quake upgrades as a possible use
and Measure A backers said keeping
the hospital open was an important
element of delivering care to the

The caretaker for a now-deceased 88-year-
old Millbrae man is accused of hitting him
over the head with a walker, according to
prosecutors who say he slipped into a coma
and later died.
Investigators cannot conclusively prove the
alleged strike led to the mans death 10 weeks
later which is why Jalome Sukulu Balekaba,
50, is charged with felony counts of assault
and physical elder abuse rather than homicide,
said District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe.
When you have a victim of this age, you
have to determine if the
blow is what killed him or
if it was something else,
Wagstaffe said, adding that
the investigation continues
into the mans medical
condition.
Balekaba worked as a
caretaker for the man and,
during a Dec. 19, 2011
phone call with his
nephew, reportedly sound-
ed intoxicated, Wagstaffe said.
The nephew contacted the Sheriffs Ofces
Millbrae Bureau for a welfare check and
police reported nding Balekaba asleep in his
room while the man was in a living room chair
bleeding profusely from the head.
The man was hospitalized where he was
treated for a stroke and became comatose. He
died 10 weeks later.
Balekaba appeared in court Tuesday after-
noon for his initial arraignment on the felonies
and asked for a court-appointed attorney. He
pleaded not guilty to both charges and did not
waive his right to a speedy trial.
A court commissioner set bail at $200,000
and ordered Balekaba back to court Jan. 28 for
a preliminary hearing with a three-hour esti-
mate.
He remains in custody and has no prior
criminal record in San Mateo County.

The man accused of shooting his sister in
the hand while she tried escaping the South
San Francisco home where he held their fam-
ily hostage is mentally t to stand trial on two
dozen felony charges including premeditated
attempted murder, according to court-appoint-
ed doctors.
The decision means Alvin Baja Luis, 57, of
San Francisco, will be not be treated at a state
mental hospital but instead prosecuted on the
charges which also include residential burgla-
ry and several counts each of felony assault
with a rearm, false imprisonment and mak-
ing criminal threats.
Criminal proceedings
were reinstated and Luis
was scheduled for jury trial
March 4.
Prosecutor say on Nov.
20, 2011, Luis arrived at
his sisters home at 521
Spruce Ave. with duct tape,
ammunition and two guns.
Luis, reportedly angry
about his deceased moth-
ers estate, is accused of brandishing a pellet
gun and a handgun toward the seven people
inside which included his two sisters, children
and family friends gathered for a football
game. He reportedly hit one sister in the back
of the head with a weapon, kicked another sis-
ter in the stomach and shot one in the hand
when the group tried escaping out a bedroom
window.
Luis ed to a Carls Jr. in San Francisco
where he was later apprehended. Ofcers also
reported recovering the weapon and nding
the tape and a bag of ammunition at the crime
scene.
Luis was about to start a jury trial Dec. 3,
2012 when that morning his attorney raised
questioned about his competency which is the
ability to aid his own defense at trial.
He remains in custody without bail.

Four aging railroad bridges in San Mateo
that had their foundations rebuilt in 2011 will
likely be replaced and lifted up to four feet to
meet Caltrains future needs, including elec-
trication, ofcials with the transit agency
told the Daily Journal.
Plans have yet to be nalized, however, and
work will not begin until 2014 at the earliest,
Caltrain ofcials said.
In early 2011, Caltrain began rebuilding the
foundations of four railroad bridges that cross
Tilton, Monte Diablo, Santa Inez and Poplar
avenues in San Mateos North Central
Neighborhood. Caltrain completed that proj-
ect in December 2011.
The $2.4 million seismic rehabilitation
extended the life of the bridges, which are
more than 100 years old and will be kept in a
state-of-good repair until they are replaced,
according to Caltrain.
The crossings are currently low enough for
the occasional truck to slam into the bridges
and damage signage.
No cost estimate is available now as the
project will be funded out of next years budg-
et.

COUNTY GOVERNMENT
A hearing on the countys request
to toss a lawsuit over its now-defunct
at-large supervisorial elections has
been rescheduled from Monday to
Feb. 11. The county calls the suit by a
six residents moot because voters in
November changed the county charter
to require district election. The plaintiffs, which claim the
countys prior method is discriminatory and in violation of
the states voting rights act, want the suit to continue so a
judge can establish the change.

the fourth Tuesday of each month at 4 p.m. in Room 207 of
City Hall, 600 Elm St. Applications are available online at
www.cityofsancarlos.org or by contacting the City Clerks
Ofce at 802-4222. The deadline is 4 p.m. Friday, Jan. 18
with interviews tentatively scheduled with the City Council
Monday, Jan. 28.
The City Clerks Ofce of Redwood City is expanding
its passport counter hours and allows for drop-ins rather than
requiring appointments to pick up or drop off applications,
renewals and payments. The new hours are 1 p.m. to 4 p.m.
Monday and 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Tuesdays and Wednesdays. The
counter is closed Thursdays, Fridays and holidays.

The dual appeals of plans to expand
the number of gas pumps at the Costco
on Middleeld Road has been pushed
back until mid-March.
The City Council was scheduled
Monday night to take up the matter but
received a request by one party for more
time. The other appellant agreed to the
delay and the City Council reset the
hearing for March 11.
The council did not clarify which side
requested the delay or for what specic
reason.
The Planning Commission last year
voted 6-1 to allow Costco to expand its
current 12 pumps to 16 rather than the
full 20 sought by the business. Costco
appealed the decision as did nearby gas
station owner Andy Saberi who wants
the station number kept at 12.
Saberis appeal objects to the Planning
Commissions decision based on air and
trafc analysis and the lack of a condi-
tion prohibiting Costco from selling
gasoline to the public below cost.
City staff recommends the council
grant Costcos appeal to restore the orig-
inal plan which calls for adding the new
pumps on two additional islands and
recongure parking from 745 to 747
spaces by converting some oversized
stalls at the 2300 Middleeld Road loca-
tion. The business said the change will
decrease lines and idling times while
improving trafc.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON The Obama
administration on Tuesday gave a blister-
ing review of remarks that Egyptian
President Mohammed Morsi made
almost three years ago about Jews and
called for him to repudiate what it called
unacceptable rhetoric.
In blunt comments, the White House
and State Department said Morsis state-
ments were deeply offensive and ran
counter to the goal of peace in the region.
The State Department, noting that a sen-
ior congressional delegation is now visit-
ing Egypt, said the remarks complicated
efforts to provide economic and military
aid to Egypt.
We believe that President Morsi
should make clear that he respects people
of all faiths and that this type of rhetoric
is unacceptable in a democratic Egypt,
White House spokesman Jay Carney told
reporters.
Morsi was a leader in the Muslim
Brotherhood in 2010 when, according to
video broadcast last week on Egyptian
television he asked Egyptians to nurse
our children and our grandchildren on
hatred. Months later, in a television
interview, Morsi referred to Zionists as
bloodsuckers who attack Palestinians,
describing Zionists as the descendants
of apes and pigs.
We completely reject these statements
as we do any language that espouses reli-
gious hatred, State Department spokes-
woman Victoria Nuland told reporters.
This kind of rhetoric has been used in
this region for far too long. Its counter to
the goals of peace.

Suspect shoots Galt officer to death, kills self
GALT A police officer in the Sacramento County city
of Galt was shot to death Tuesday by a suspect who police
say then fired at other officers before shooting and killing
himself.

during a physical altercation with the suspect, Galt police Lt.
Jim Uptegrove said during an afternoon news conference.
The officer was shot once and died after being taken to a hos-
pital, Uptegrove said. Police initially said Tonn was 31.
Tonn and other officers were responding to call about a
burglary when a witness pointed to a suspect, and Tonn went
to question the suspect, police said.

Police seek man who
exposed self to woman
Belmont police are looking for a
man who exposed himself to a
woman Sunday afternoon in a resi-
dential neighborhood.
At about 3:30 p.m., a woman was
walking on Hiller Street at Marine
View Avenue when a man in a car
pulled up and asked for directions,
according to police.
When the woman went over to the
car to talk to the driver, she saw that
he had exposed himself. The woman
turned and continued walking and the
suspect drove off south on Hiller
Street, according to police.
The suspect is described as a
heavyset male in his early 20s, medi-
um complexion, clean shaven with
short straight dark hair. He spoke
English with no accent and was
wearing oversize, square black sun-
glasses. He was driving a dark red,
early 90s Toyota Camry four-door
sedan, according to police.
Anyone with information on this
incident is encouraged to call
Belmont police at (650) 595-7400 for
the tip line at (650) 598-3000.
Special tours offered at
Edgewood County Park
Throughout 2013, the Friends of
Edgewood are celebrating their 20th
anniversary and that of the designa-
tion of Edgewood County Park as a
natural preserve.
In 1993, the San Mateo County
Board of Supervisors voted to pre-
serve the park from development in
perpetuity.
Edgewood Park, located in
Redwood City, is known throughout
the Bay Area for its springtime wild-
ower displays. The Friends of
Edgewood volunteer more than
4,000 hours annually to offer docent-
led wildower walks, host visitors in
the new Bill and Jean Lane
Education Center and support the
California Native Plant Society in
weeding and habitat restoration
efforts at Edgewood.
To celebrate this milestone, the
Friends and San Mateo County Parks
are presenting 2013: Year of
Edgewood. Special guided nighttime
walks, guided access to sensitive
areas normally off limits and walks
led by distinguished naturalists, sci-
entists and professional photogra-
phers highlight these events. This
access has never been possible in the
past, but is offered now through part-
nership with San Mateo County
Parks.
All events are free but donations
are suggested. Because space is lim-
ited, visitors must register in
advance. To register or to get more

Screaming
Eagles documentary
premieres this month
A documentary focusing on the
story of Linda and Steve Patterson
and the founding of America
Supporting Americans will debut in
San Mateo later this month.
The documentary details how the
city adopted A Company, and
infantry regiment of the 101st
Airborne Division known as the
Screaming Eagles.
It documents the activities sur-
rounding Operation Eagle Visit on
Memorial Day last year, the 40th
anniversary of San Mateos welcome
home parade for returning veterans in
1972.
Linda asked the city to adopt the
Screaming Eagles after a letter was
sent to her by her brother who was
serving in Vietnam at the time and
who was killed in action shortly after
sending the letter. Linda went on to
marry Steve Patterson after visiting
Vietnam herself. Patterson served
alongside Lindas brother on the
front lines.
The documentary debuts Thursday
Jan. 31 at City Hall in San Mateo.

MEMPHIS, Tenn. With interest
in locally grown food soaring, the
federal government said Tuesday it
has created a small loan program to
help community farmers who might
not be able to borrow money from
banks.
Call it seed money.
The low-interest microloans of
up to $35,000 are designed to aid
startup costs, bolster existing family-
run farms and help minority growers
and military veterans who want to
farm. Over the last three years, there
has been a 60 percent increase in
local growers who sell directly to
consumers or farmers markets,
Agriculture Department Secretary
Tom Vilsack said.
Kay Jensen, an organic farmer who
grows broccoli, strawberries and
tomatoes in Sun Prairie, Wis., saw
two immediate benets from the pro-
gram paperwork would go from
about 30 pages to seven, and it would
be easier to borrow a manageable
sum. She said she might consider a
loan for $3,000 to $10,000 to expand
her irrigation systems.
A lot times what we need is just
small amounts of money, but a lot of
times the only funding available is
large amounts of money, she said.

About 120 other plaintiffs have

NEW YORK How bad is this
u season, exactly? Look to the chil-
dren.
Twenty flu-related deaths have
been reported in kids so far this win-
ter, one of the worst tolls this early in
the year since the government start-
ed keeping track in 2004.
But while such a tally is tragic,
that does not mean this year will turn
out to be unusually bad. Roughly
100 children die in an average u
season, and its not yet clear the
nation will reach that total.
The deaths this year have included
a 6-year-old girl in Maine, a 15-year
Michigan student who loved robot-
ics, and 6-foot-4 Texas high school
senior Max Schwolert, who grew
sick in Wisconsin while visiting his
grandparents for the holidays.
He was kind of a gentle giant
whose death has had a huge impact
on his hometown of Flower Mound,
said Phil Schwolert, the Texas boys
uncle.
Health ofcials only started track-
ing pediatric u deaths nine years
ago, after media reports called atten-
tion to childrens deaths. That was in
2003-04 when the primary u germ
was the same dangerous u bug as
the one dominating this year. It also
was an earlier than normal u sea-
son.
The government ultimately
received reports of 153 u-related
deaths in children, from 40 states,
and most of them had occurred by
the beginning of January. But the
reporting was scattershot. So in
October 2004, the government start-
ed requiring all states to report u-
related deaths in kids.
Other things changed, most
notably a broad expansion of who
should get u shots.

ALBANY, N.Y. Jumping out
ahead of Washington, New York
state enacted the nations toughest
gun restrictions Tuesday and the
rst since the Connecticut school
massacre, including an expanded
assault-weapon ban and background
checks for buying ammunition.
Democratic Gov. Andrew Cuomo
signed the measure into law less
than an hour after it won nal pas-
sage in the Legislature, with sup-
porters hailing it as a model for the
nation and gun-rights activists con-
demning it as a knee-jerk piece of
legislation that wont make anyone
safer and is too extreme to win sup-
port in the rest of the country.
Common sense can win,
Cuomo said. You can overpower
the extremists with intelligence and
with reason and with common
sense.
Owners of an estimated 1 million
previously legal semiautomatic
ries, such as the Bushmaster model
used to kill 20 children and six
adults in Newtown, Conn., a month
ago, will be allowed to keep their
weapons but will have a year to reg-
ister them with police. The sale of
any more such weapons is prohibit-
ed.
When theres a pileup of events,
when the federal government does
not do it, the state of New York has
to lead the way, said state
Assemblyman Joseph Lentol, a
Brooklyn Democrat and co-sponsor.
In addition to outlawing a broader
array of military-style weapons, the
measure restricts ammunition maga-
zines to seven rounds, down from
the current 10, creates a more com-
prehensive database of people
barred from owning guns, and
makes New York the rst state to
require background checks to buy
bullets. The system will also help
flag customers who buy large
amounts of ammo.

WASHINGTON More than 10
weeks after Superstorm Sandy bru-
talized parts of the heavily populat-
ed Northeast, the House approved
$50.7 billion in emergency relief
for the victims Tuesday night as
Republican leaders struggled to
close out an episode that exposed
painful party divisions inside
Congress and out.
The vote was 241-180, and of-
cials said the Senate was likely to
accept the measure early next week
and send it to President Barack
Obama for his signature.
Democrats supported the aid in
large numbers, while majority
Republicans opposed it by a lop-
sided margin.
We are not crying wolf here,
said Rep. Chris Smith, R-N.J., one
of a group of Northeastern lawmak-
ers from both parties who sought
House passage of legislation rough-
ly in line with what the Obama
administration and governors of the
affected states have sought.
Democrats were more politically
pointed as they brushed back
Southern conservatives who sought
either to reduce the measure or off-
set part of its cost through spending
cuts elsewhere in the budget.
I just plead with my colleagues
not to have a double standard, said
Rep. Carolyn Maloney of New
York. Not to vote tornado relief to
Alabama, to Louisiana, to
Mississippi, Missouri, to with
Ike, Gustav, Katrina, Rita but
when it comes to the Northeast,
with the second worst storm in the
history of our country, to delay,
delay, delay.
One key vote came on an attempt
by Rep. Rodney Freylinghuysen to
add $33.7 billion to an original
allotment of $17 billion in aid.

Time for a change
Editor,
I cant believe all the ruckus about
Supervisor Don Horsley breaking a
campaign promise. Its been my experi-
ence that most campaigners say any-
thing to get elected and then break
promises as they see t for their own
benet.
What amazes me is that the public
repeatedly gets duped into electing the
same old people (double-dippers), or
not, and then all they do is complain.
Come on, people! Elect some new fresh
faces with new ideas. They cant be any
worse than what we repeatedly get
stuck with. Besides, it will give some-
one else a chance to get on the public
service gravy train that these elected
ofcials cherish so much.

Horsleys dilemma
Editor,
Supervisor Don Horsley has certainly
found himself between a rock and a
hard place. He promises not to accept
his supervisors salary, then recants due
to family illness, then ips again due to
public pressure to honor his initial cam-
paign promise. Im not sure he made
the right choice. He stated he was tak-
ing his salary to help care for his ill
mother-in-law. This may have been an
opportunity to help bring forward the
problem of caring for aging parents
a problem that many ill-prepared
Americans will have to deal with.
With the baby boomers reaching
retirement age, this is an escalating
societal problem with no easy solution.
Here we have a man with an income
signicantly higher than most
Americans and it is not enough. I do
not know what the supervisors mother-
in-laws illness or needs are, but I do
know that care in a long-term memory
unit will cost $7,000 to $10,000 per
month and is usually not covered by
any insurance. How unprepared are
we? I remember seeing a survey stating
that half of Americans have less than
three months reserves in the bank. I
have no problem allowing the supervi-
sor to take his salary to give a more
comfortable end to his mother-in-laws
life. I do not know why he again chose
not to take his salary. I can only hope
he did not place his political career
above the welfare of his mother-in-law.

Paper bags over plastic
Editor,
In response to Cathy Brownes guest
perspective, Everyone loses under bag
bans in the Jan. 3 edition of the Daily
Journal, the record on paper bags needs
to be set straight. When choosing a gro-
cery bag, paper is the most environ-
mentally-conscious choice. The guest
perspective states that plastic bags are
made from a natural gas derivative and
not from oil. Natural gas, just like oil,
is a fossil fuel and non-renewable.
Unlike plastic, paper bags are made
from recovered paper and wood ber, a
renewable and sustainable resource.
The Forest Products Industry sources
the ber used in its products from sus-
tainably managed forests. In fact, the
United States has 20 percent more trees
today than it did on the rst Earth Day
celebration more than 40 years ago.
Paper bags can be recycled, reused
and even composted, as evidenced by
their use throughout the country in
municipal leaf mulching programs.
Paper bags are 100 percent recyclable
and their recovery rate is at nearly 50
percent, while that of plastic bags is at
nearly 10 percent. Many of the prod-
ucts plastic bags are recycled into are
precisely the types of hard plastics that
the guest perspective claims are the
culprit of oceanic pollution. Plastic bag
litter itself is a major threat to marine
animals.
If you want to make a responsible
and sustainable choice, choose paper
bags.

Obamas coin
Editor,
The other day, I was walking to my
car and saw that the parking enforce-
ment person was just about to reach my
spot as my meter started ashing red. I
immediately ran to it, pulled out a coin
and jammed it into the slot just in time.
As the little motorized enforcement
vehicle went by, I breathed a sigh of
relief. Just then, I realized I had put my
$1 trillion Obama coin into that meter.
Now what! Looks like we'll have to
choose between that scal cliff again or
else Ill just stand and smile at the
parking enforcement people for the
next 600,000 years.

Letters to the editor
I
n this space last week, we called
out Supervisor Don Horsley for
his decision to take his salary after
saying he would not during his cam-
paign.
The reason for Horsleys original
commitment was that he would already
be receiving a generous pension for his
35-year law enforcement career of
about $200,000. The rationale for that
campaign commitment was that, if he
did take the supervisor salary, he would
be making approximately $320,000 a
year. High pensions and double-dipping
are spark plug issues here and else-
where and Horsley negated the poten-
tial controversy by agreeing to not be
paid for the supervisor job. That is what
he did for the rst two years on the job.
Last month, in the heart of the holiday
season when most peoples minds are
elsewhere, Horsley announced he
would, in fact, begin taking the salary
because his circumstances changed and
he would soon have to pay for his
mother-in-laws medical care.
Last Friday, Horsley announced he
would not take his salary, simply saying
he made a commitment and intended to
honor that commitment. We are not so
presumptuous as to take credit for the
decision; ours was simply one voice
among others in suggesting that all was
not right in the decision and that he
should have honored the commitment
or not made it at all. However, one for-
mer candidate for the same job two
years ago also threatened a recall effort.
Though such an effort is often chal-
lenging, it obviously helped convince
Horsley that the issue was not going to
go quietly even though it was
announced during the holidays. So
credit Michael Stogner for his recall
plans and those who wrote letters to
this newspaper in response to our sto-
ries about Horsleys decision. And cred-
it should also go to Horsley for the
reversal.
Though the decision to begin taking
his pay was tone-deaf, he had the
wherewithal to realize it was a poor one
and change his mind. Not everyone
does that, and doing so removes what
could have been a stain of both disap-
pointment and ire to his tenure on the
board.
A positive reversal
Loners of America?
S
omewhere there ought to be a club for anti-
social people.
Ashleigh Brilliant.
I think Ive found it, Mr. Brilliant! You know those signs
every few miles along the freeways and highways that
inform us just what group had signed up to be responsible
for highway cleanup for a certain section of the road?
They may have read: Litter
removal next two miles
Dunsmuir Methodist
Church or Litter Removal
next three miles
Employees of Dans Diner.
We passed a very interesting
one when we would drive to
Ashland, Ore. to visit with
our son and family. It read,
Litter Removal next
three miles Loners of
America. This one always
caught my attention: Loners
of America! This must be
an organization of people
who want to be alone, right?
But why would a loner want to organize?
When I saw that sign I wondered about a lot of other
things, too, like how they communicated. By telephone?
By email? When they carried out their job every three
months or whatever, did they keep a certain distance so
they could work alone? How does a person qualify to
become a member? What was the original purpose of the
organization and how did they find each other in the first
place? Were they anti-social, or were they just people who
enjoyed their own company? Did they ever get together,
except possibly to clean up the highway? Were they sin-
gle? Did they live alone, far from everyone else? Is Greta
Garbo a charter member?
I would have loved to have known more about Loners
of America. What kind of people could they be? If I were
to meet them, would I admire them or think theyre a bit
odd? Were they hermits? After all of this, maybe Loners
of America meant something entirely different, but I
couldnt think what.
They are no doubt aware of the fact that in our culture
spending time alone is highly underrated. In fact, it is dis-
couraged by many (maybe a hangover from the Puritan
ethic). Not to worry too much these days because even if
theyd like to, most people are so busy that they rarely find
time to be alone except maybe in the car on their way to
work. And then the stress of traffic prevents this from
being quality time.
For some people, being alone is frightening and they
avoid it (consciously or unconsciously) like the plague. If
solitude threatens, they turn on the television, get on the
telephone or Internet, maybe go shopping, or take a nap.
Or they might have a few drinks to numb the feeling.
These types are very uncomfortable with themselves.
Theyre not like Anne Morrow Lindbergh who wrote: I
find that there is a quality to being alone that is incredibly
precious. Life rushes back into the void, richer, more
vivid, fuller than before.
Loners of America no doubt know that solitude (with-
out television, radio or other distraction) can add a great
deal to the quality of our lives. Cogitating and reflecting
when we are alone can help us know ourselves better. It
can also be a time for serious thought about such things as
relationships, events, the future and our values. It is when
we do our best creating whether new ideas, poetry,
music, handiwork or anything that challenges and/or
intrigues us. Its when we contemplate and absorb or dis-
card other peoples ideas. It can be a great time to renew
ourselves. But maybe Loners of America dont care
about any of that just want to do their own thing.
Well, finally, thanks to that amazing encyclopedia of the
Internet, Google, I found out that Loners of America is a
club for single RV owners. They have three rules: You
must love to travel. You must have some type of RV. You
must currently be single. Their motto is, Where singles
mingle.
Of course, some Loners of America may simply be
escaping getting away from it all avoiding the com-
plications that arise when living among others. Maybe,
like George Washington, they believe that It is better to
be alone than in bad company. But whatever they do now
that theyre not delittering the Interstate, I hope they
agree with Mr. Brilliant who would add: I live in a world
of my own, but visitors are always welcome.
I guess members of Loners of America are not clean-
ing up the highway anywhere any more (nor any others
that were listed on the signs along the way) but, according
to Google, they are still organized. Ill bet theyd appreci-
ate what William Cowper wrote: How sweet, how passing
sweet, is solitude! But grant me still a friend in my retreat,
to whom I may whisper, Solitude is sweet.

Big movers

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK Stocks edged higher
on Wall Street after a rally in retail stocks
offset concerns about aring tensions in
Washington over increasing the countrys
borrowing limit.
The Dow Jones industrial average
ended the day up 27.57 points at
13,534.89. The Dow moved higher in the
late afternoon after being down as much
as 62 points in the early going.
The Standard and Poors 500 rose 1.66
points to 1,472.34, a ve-year high. The
Nasdaq composite index, dragged down
by a fall in Apple, fell 6.72 points to
3,110.78.
Retail stocks moved higher throughout
the day, boosted by a report that showed
retail sales increased in December, help-
ing the major indexes reverse early losses.
Consumers bought more autos, furni-
ture and clothing, despite worries about
potential tax increases, the Commerce
Department said Tuesday. Sales rose 0.5
percent in December from November,
slightly better than Novembers 0.4 per-
cent increase and the best showing since
September.
J.C. Penney rose 62 cents, or 3.4 per-
cent, to $18.71. Dollar General gained
$1.62, or 3.8 percent, to $44.64. Ford
advanced 31 cents, or 2.2 percent, to
$14.30.
Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner
told congressional leaders in a letter late
Monday that the U.S. government will
reach its borrowing limit as soon as mid-
February, earlier than expected. Federal
Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke also
commented on the issue Monday, saying
it was one of the critical scal water-
sheds for the government in coming
weeks.
President Barack Obama has criticized
congressional Republicans for linking
talks over raising the debt ceiling to ongo-
ing budget negotiations. Obama said the
consequences of the U.S. government
defaulting on its debt would be disastrous
and shouldnt be used as a bargaining
chip to extract concessions on spending
cuts.
We are very concerned how the mar-
ket is going to respond to all the news
events that will be coming out of
Washington over the next few months,
said Eric Wiegand, a senior portfolio
manager at U.S. Bank Wealth
Management. It really comes down to
the uncertainty and the risk of a further
downgrade of our debt.
Markets were roiled in the summer of
2011 as lawmakers haggled over an
increase to the debt limit. The dispute
cost the U.S. its AAA ranking from the
credit-rating rm Standard and Poors.
The U.S. scal crisis is still the biggest
single individual risk facing investors,
with 37 percent of investors naming it as
the biggest worry, according to a survey
of fund managers published by Bank of
America Merrill Lynch Tuesday. The
European debt crisis was cited as the
biggest concern by 23 percent of those
polled and a hard landing for the
Chinese economy was third on the list
with 12 percent.
Apple fell $15.83, or 3.2 percent, to
$485.92, closing below $500 for the rst
time in almost a year. Apple slumped 3.6
percent Monday on concern that demand
for its iPhone 5 is slowing. Nomura ana-
lysts today lowered their target price for
the stock to $530 from $660 and cut their
estimates for iPhone sales this year.

MENLO PARK Facebook CEO Mark
Zuckerberg unveiled a new search feature
thats designed to entice people to spend more
time on his companys website and will put the
worlds largest online social network more
squarely in competition with Google and other
rivals such as Yelp and LinkedIn.
Called graph search, the new service
unveiled Tuesday lets users quickly sift
through their social connections for informa-
tion about people, interests, photos and places.
Itll help users who, for instance, want to scroll
through all the photos their friends have taken
in Paris or search for the favorite TV shows of
all their friends who happen to be doctors.
Although Zuckerberg stressed that graph
search is different from an all-purpose search
engine, the expanded feature escalates an
already erce duel between Google Inc. and
Facebook Inc. as they grapple for the attention
of Web surfers and revenue from online adver-
tisers.
This could be another reason not to use
Google and another reason to stay on
Facebook for longer periods, said Gartner
analyst Brian Blau. I dont think Google is
going to lose its search business, but it could
have an impact on Google by changing the
nature of search in the future.
Facebooks foray into search marks one of
its boldest steps since its initial public offering
of stock opped eight months ago amid con-
cerns about the companys ability to produce
the same kind of robust earnings growth that
Google delivered after it went public in 2004.
Although Facebooks stock has rallied in
recent weeks, the shares remain below their
IPO price of $38. Investors seemed let down
by Tuesdays news, causing Facebooks stock
to slip 85 cents, or 2.7 percent, to close at
$30.10. Googles stock gained $1.68 to close
at $724.93.
If the new search tool works the way
Facebook envisions, users should be able to
nd information they want to see on their own
instead of relying on the social networks for-
mulas to pick which posts and pictures to dis-
play in their fees, analysts said.

NEW YORK Why wait on Washington when theres Wal-
Mart?
Wal-Mart Stores Inc., the worlds largest retailer and the
biggest private employer in the U.S. with 1.4 million workers
here, said Tuesday that it is rolling out a three-part plan to help
jumpstart the sluggish U.S. economy.
The plan includes hiring more than 100,000 veterans in the
next ve years, spending $50 billion to buy more American-
made merchandise in the next 10 years and helping its part-
time workers move into full-time positions.
The move comes as Wal-Mart tries to bolster its image amid
widespread criticism. The company, which often is criticized
for its low-paying jobs and buying habits in the U.S., recently
has faced allegations that it made bribes in Mexico and calls
for better safety oversight after a deadly re at a Bangladesh
factory that supplies its clothes.

strollers carrycot/seat carry handle can become disengaged
and cause the handle to detach. That could mean a young pas-
senger could fall or choke.

TRYING TO SAVE THE KINGS: SACRAMENTO MAYOR PREPARED TO MAKE COUNTEROFFER TO KEEP NBA TEAM IN TOWN >>> PAGE 12
By Julio Lara
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Adam Hyndmans second stint as the head
coach of the Capuchino High School football
team has come to an abrupt end.
The 15-year Mustang man conrmed to the
Daily Journal last night that he has been
relieved of his coaching duties effective
immediately following two years as the
Capuchino head coach. Hyndman had
returned to his high school alma mater after a
four-season hiatus in which Chris Chaika and
Jordan Seiden were at the helm.
Its just a shocking day for me, Hyndman
said. Ive been at the school for 15 years. I
came to Capuchino as an alumni and Im just
in shock. And to go through that evaluation
totally not agreeing with what took place was
a shock to me.
A phone call to Capuchino principal
Shamar Shanks went unanswered as of press
time.
Hyndman said he met with Shanks and
Capuchino athletic director Matt Wilson on
Tuesday at which time he was informed of the
schools decision.
The reasons, of course, all of them I dis-
agreed with, Hyndman said, adding he could
not go into specic detail. I can say, one of
the reasons were there were parent complaints
over the year. I was only aware throughout the
year of one parent complaint. Thats unfortu-
nate.

El Caminos Michael Smith goes up for a shot during the Colts 71-51 win over Westmoor.
Smith scored a game-high 28 points as the Colts improved to 3-0 in PAL NorthDivision play.
By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
The Westmoor at El Camino boys basket-
ball game Tuesday night in South San
Francisco was billed as a big showdown in the
Peninsula Athletic Leagues North Division.
It turned into a big blowout. After a close
rst quarter, El Camino put its foot on the gas
and pulled away from the Rams over the nal
three quarters, recording a 71-51 win.
It was a real pride and respect game, said
El Camino forward Michael Smith, who n-
ished with a game-high 28 points to go along
with 10 rebounds. We had to show were on
top.
Colts coach Archie Junio said he was more
concerned about how his team nished. El
Camino (2-0 PAL North, 11-4 overall) started
strong and finished strong with D.J.
Idolyantes punctuating the win by draining a
3-pointer as the nal horn sounded.
I call it a big game because we want to
make sure we can nish games, Junio said.
Against S.I., we didnt nish. Against San
Leandro, we didnt nish. Against Bellarmine,
we didnt nish.
Tuesday, the Colts were almost assured of
nishing strong, thanks in large part to their
fast start. Neither team was especially sharp in
the opening minutes and with 3:43 left in the
rst quarter, the Colts held a 7-2 lead. By the
time the quarter ended, El Camino enjoyed a
16-10 advantage and Westmoor (1-2, 12-3)
was still in the game.
We all came out with some nerves, espe-
cially since [this game] was one of our rst
home games, Smith said.
While the Colts got hot in the second quar-
ter, the Rams shooting woes that plagued
them in the rst quarter carried over for the
rest of the game. Westmoor shot just 25 per-
cent from the eld in the rst half, hitting just
seven of 28 shots. The Rams nished the game
shooting just 29 percent, on 17 for 59 shooting
from the eld.
[The Rams] couldnt buy a shot and at one
point, they couldnt handle the press and thats
when we built our lead, Junio said.
That came in the second quarter. A John

Woodside boys soccer coach Darrell
Ringman was satised with his teams 1-1
draw against host Hillsdale Tuesday afternoon.
A tie is better than a loss, Ringman said.
We got out of here with a point.
Knights head man Andy Hodzic, however,
was disappointed his team could not pull out
its rst Peninsula Athletic League win of the
season. The Knights had several second-half
opportunities to pull out the win, but they just
could not convert.
We should have won this game, Hodzic
said. Against Carlmont (last week) we played
excellent and lost. Today, was our worst game
and we tie.
And that, in a nutshell, best describes soccer
ties. PAL teams are getting used to them, how-
ever. Going into play Tuesday, there had been
10 draws in Bay Division action. Now, count-
ing Tuesday result, Woodside and Hillsdale
each have three times in league play.
Ive never seen anything like this, Hodzic
said.
Hillsdale (0-1-3 PAL Bay, 22-5 overall) had
several chances go by the board in the second
half, including a pair in the nal 10 minutes of
the game. Earlier in the half, Hillsdales Tony
Elian whipped a header off a cross from
Kleyton Barden, who had intercepted the ball
near mideld and sent a perfect cross to Elian
at the top of the Hillsdale penalty box.
His header banged off the post.
Then, with about 10 minutes to play, Fredie
Whitman sent a ball down the line. Alex
Golden beat Woodsides offside trap and burst
past the Wildcats defensive line. He broke in
on goal and had only Wildcats goalkeeper
Brian Lopez to beat. But Goldens last touch
was a bit too heavy, giving Lopez the space to
gobble up the ball and prevent a shot.
About ve minutes later, Whitman chipped a
ball to Elian, who had space about 25 yards
from the Woodside goal. He decided, however,
to carry the ball to the top of the box and three

SANTA CLARA Mike Nolans 3 1/2-
year tenure as coach for the San Francisco
49ers offered few highlights on the eld.
An 18-37 record before a mid-season ring
in 2008. No playoff berths for a franchise used
to winning championships. A parade of offen-
sive coordinators unable to develop Alex
Smith at quarterback.
Yet to call Nolans run in
San Francisco a complete
failure would clearly miss
the point. He took over a
franchise decimated under
the leadership of former
general manager Terry
Donahue and coach
Dennis Erickson and began
acquiring the pieces that
Jim Harbaugh later used to
make back-to-back runs to the NFC champi-
onship game.
Nolan, now the defensive coordinator in
Atlanta, gets the chance to see the results of
some of his work when the Falcons (14-3)
host the 49ers (12-4-1) on Sunday with a trip
to the Super Bowl on the line.
Theres a lot of players still playing there
that we added, that Ill see. I look forward to
seeing them before the game. Im glad theyve
done well. Not only for those players, but for
the organization, Nolan said. I put a lot of
time and effort into that. So, in a strange way,
its a little rewarding that some of those guys
are going so well.
San Francisco owner Jed York said he gives
Nolan a lot of credit for helping set the foun-
dation for this current 49ers team.
Its never easy to let somebody go that you
have so much respect for, and you wish things

Sacramento Mayor Kevin Johnson
is taking his ght to keep the Kings in
Californias capital city to NBA own-
ers.
Again.
Speaking at the annual State of
Downtown breakfast on Tuesday,
Johnson said he has received approval
from NBA Commissioner David
Stern to present a counteroffer to the
league from buyers who would keep
the team in Sacramento. He said the
city is in a six-week sprint to put
together a proposal for the NBAs
Board of Governors to consider over a
potential sale and relocation to Seattle.
The leagues deadline for teams to
apply for a move for the next season is
March 1, though that has been extend-
ed each of the last two years for the
Kings. And both times, Johnson a
former NBA All-Star has con-
vinced the league that Sacramento
could help x the franchises nancial
woes and secure its long-term home in
a new arena.
We want this
to be the nal act
of a saga thats
gone on for far
too long,
Johnson said.
People with
knowledge of the
situation said last
week that a group
led by San Francisco-based investor
Chris Hansen, who wants to return the
NBA to Seattle, has contacted the
Maloof family about buying the
Kings. They spoke on condition of
anonymity to The Associated Press
because no deal has been reached.
One person said the Kings could
sell for more than $500 million, top-
ping the NBA-record $450 million the
Golden State Warriors sold for in
2010. Some reports have suggested up
to $525 million.
The Kings future in Sacramento
has been uncertain because the
Maloofs and the city havent been
able to agree on a deal for a downtown
arena.
While I am sensitive to the impor-
tant role of the news media in inform-
ing the public, our position has not
changed, we will not comment on
rumors or speculation about the future
of the Sacramento Kings franchise,
Maloof family spokesman Eric Rose
said in a statement Tuesday.
The NBA declined to comment on
Johnsons remarks Tuesday.
Hansens goal has been to nd a
team and restore the SuperSonics
name after they were moved from
Seattle to Oklahoma City in 2008. He
reached agreement with local govern-
ments in Seattle last October on plans
to build a $490 million arena near the
citys other stadiums, CenturyLink
Field and Safeco Field. As part of the
agreement, no construction will begin
until all environmental reviews are
completed and a team has been
secured.
Johnson commended Seattles
efforts to bring the NBA back to the
Puget Sound. He just doesnt want it
to be at the expense of Sacramento.
We have a city and a community
that have done every single thing that
is required, Johnson said. I hope
Seattle gets another team. They
deserve another team. They didnt
deserve to lose a team in the rst
place. It just wont be the Sacramento
Kings if we have anything to do with
it.
The Maloofs backed out of a tenta-
tive $391 million deal for a new
downtown arena with Sacramento last
April, reigniting fears the franchise
could relocate. The Kings said the
deal didnt make nancial sense for
the franchise.
In 2011, the Kings appeared deter-
mined to move to Anaheim before
Johnson convinced NBA owners at a
meeting in New York to give the city
one last chance to help nance an
arena. That pitch bought Sacramento
time, before the brokered deal
between the city and the Maloofs
negotiated by Stern and league
lawyers fell apart last year.
Johnson said the Maloofs could still
participate in some way in the new
local ownership group if they want to
remain a part of this team and this
community.
The mayor called the potential $500
million to $525 million price tag for
the Kings an outrageous number.
He admits potential buyers he could
pull together in Sacramento will not
top that gure, but he also doesnt
believe it has to.
Johnson said the Maloof family still
must repay a $77 million loan to the
city and other lenders if they leave.
There also could be a potential reloca-
tion fee from the NBA that new own-
ers wouldnt have to pay if the team
stayed.
Subtracting those totals and adding
the proven support Kings fans have
shown in the past, Johnsons goal is to
line up buyers willing to pay about
$400 million to $425 million for the
team and argue Sacramentos side to
the league.
We were there two years ago and
we prevailed, Johnson said. We
have a very compelling case.

Anti-doping ofcials want
Armstrong under oath
A televised confession by Lance
Armstrong isnt enough.
Anti-doping ofcials want the dis-
graced cyclist to admit his guilt under
oath before considering whether to
lift a lifetime ban clouding his future
as a competitive athlete. That was
seconded by at least one former
teammate whom Armstrong pushed
aside on his way to the top of the Tour
de France podium.
Lance knows everything that hap-
pened, Frankie Andreu told The
Associated Press on Tuesday. Hes
the one who knows who did what
because he was the ringleader. Its up
to him how much he wants to
expose.
Armstrong has been in conversa-
tions with U.S. Anti-Doping Agency
ofcials, touching off speculation that
he may be willing to cooperate with
authorities there and name names.
Interviewer Oprah Winfrey didnt
say if the subject was broached dur-
ing the taping Monday at a down-
town Austin hotel. In an appearance
on CBS This Morning, she
declined to give details of what
Armstrong told her, but said she was
mesmerized and riveted by some of
his answers.
Asked whether the disgraced
cyclist appeared genuinely contrite
after a decade of fierce denials,
Winfrey replied, I felt that he was
thoughtful, I thought that he was seri-
ous, I thought that he certainly had
prepared for this moment. I would
say that he met the moment.
She was promoting what has
become a two-part special, Thursday
and Friday, on her OWN network.
Around the same time, World Anti-
Doping Agency ofcials issued a
statement saying nothing short of a
full confession under oath would
cause them to reconsider
Armstrongs lifetime ban from sanc-
tioned events.

Wildcat defenders closed him out
and cleared the ball away.
We had excellent opportunities
to score, Hodzic said. Much better
than [Woodside].
It was a disappointing nish after
such a promising start for Hillsdale.
The Knights took a 1-0 lead in 24th
minute of the first half when
Whitman, playing his rst game of
the season at striker, scored.
Whitman happened to be in the right
place at right time as Hillsdale
defender Milton Pleitez cleared the
ball toward midfield from the
Knights defensive end. The ball
took a big bounce in the center cir-
cle and sailed over the head of a
Woodside defender. Whitman
pounced on the loose ball and broke
in on the Woodside goal. With
Wildcat defenders in hot pursuit and
Woodside goalkeeper Juan
Mendoza charging off his goal line,
Whitman calmly chipped the ball
over Mendoza and into the net to
give the Knights the lead.
[My defender] typically judges
that ball and thwarts the attack. He
misjudged it, Ringman said. Stuff
like that happens in soccer.
It was a shortlived lead, however,
as Woodside (1-0-3, 5-2-3) knotted
the score at 1 10 minutes later on a
bang-bang play. Eric Lopez trig-
gered the goal by making a run
along the Hillsdale end line. He
slotted a pass to Luis Mancilla, who
was stationed near the post.
Mancilla quickly found Daniel
Mora stationed in the middle of the
Knights penalty box unmarked.
Mancilla sent a quick pass to Mora
who buried a one-timer to tie the
score at 1.
The PAL is about the long ball
into space and then using speed to
run onto the ball. I dont think its
the only way to score, Ringman
said. [Our goal] is the way I like to
score.
Now we just have to work on
putting a crooked number. One is
not enough.

Hillsdales Alex Golden, left, and Woodsides Chris Alvarado ght for
possession of the ball during a 1-1 tie in PAL Bay Division play Tuesday.
had worked out differently for Mike. ...
He is a very classy man and hes a heck
of a football coach, York said. Hes
not the person that I want to see with
the 49ers looking across the eld know-
ing he is coordinating the defense of
our opponent. Thats not a good thing
for me to see because he is very, very
good.
Ten of the current 49ers were
acquired during Nolans regime,
including rst-team All-Pros linebacker
Patrick Willis and safety Dashon
Goldson, second-teamers defensive
tackle Justin Smith and left tackle Joe
Staley and key contributors like run-
ning back Frank Gore, tight ends
Vernon Davis and Delanie Walker,
defensive lineman Ray McDonald and
cornerback Tarell Brown.
That helped transform the organiza-
tion from a laughingstock that went 2-
14 in 2004 in the nal season under
Erickson into a respectable one that still
fell short of the playoffs.
He turned us around, said punter
Andy Lee, one of 13 players left from
when Nolan coached. When he rst
got here we were the worst team in the
NFL. Then we slowly started this climb
from being the worst team in the NFL
to a mediocre, possible playoff team.
He did a good job. I really dont have
anything negative to say about him. He
denitely was part of the turnover part
of this organization.
But the talent Nolan acquired and the
work ethic he instilled in the locker
room failed to lead to success on the
eld. The Niners went 4-12, 7-9 and 5-
11 in his three full seasons at the helm.
He was red with a 2-5 record midway
through the 2008 season and has spent
the past few years as a successful
defensive coordinator.
After 2 1/2 more years of mediocrity
under Mike Singletary, the Niners have
turned into a winner the past two sea-
sons under coach Jim Harbaugh. San
Francisco has won back-to-back NFC
West titles and is in the NFC title game
for the second straight season where the
49ers will face Nolan and the Falcons
on Sunday.
Nolan did some good things when
he was here, denitely, said Goldson, a
fourth-round draft pick in 2007. But
its just a different feeling around here
lately. Its kind of hard to go back to
where we were because weve been
dealing with a lot of success lately. Its
just different.
Nolans run was not without its per-
sonnel missteps, most notably the rst
major decision he made. With the top
pick in the 2005 draft, Nolan selected
Alex Smith instead of local favorite
Aaron Rodgers, a decision that set the
franchise back.
With a different offensive coordina-
tor each season, Smith struggled to
become a consistent NFL quarterback.
Then there was a notable feud with
Nolan when he tried to come back from
a shoulder injury in his third season.
Smith lacked arm strength and later
needed two operations, but Nolan at the
time said there was nothing wrong with
Smiths shoulder and the issue was con-
dence. The two have long since
moved past that episode and have
respect for each other years later.

Since returning to Capuchino two season ago,
Hyndman had led the Mustangs to a 12-9 overall
record including a 9-1 mark in Peninsula Athletic
League Lake Division play that mark was good
for two league championships (co-championship
in 2011).
Dating back to 2001, the Mustangs have
enjoyed just four winning seasons, all of which
had come under Hyndmans control. The 2012
season also marked a Mustang return to the
Central Coast Section playoffs a rst since
2001.
And thats why its also shocking, Hyndman
said. And I know the kids are going to be shocked
as they nd out as well. And again, Im just in
shock that this took place.
Hyndman, a former Capuchino athletic director,
rst left the program in 2007. Records dating back
to 2001 have the Mustangs with a 28-34 mark
under his helm.
But the Capuchino football program had a
rebirth of sorts upon his return in 2011. Riding the
legs of Mustang legend Justin Ewing, Capuchino
went 4-1 in Lake Division play in 2011, capturing
a share of the league title but missing out on the
CCS playoffs.
Then in 2012, Ewings CCS-record 2,956 yards
on 396 carries catapulted the Mustangs to an out-
right Lake title their rst of that sort since 1958.
Capuchino went on to play as the No. 8 seed in the
CCS Division IV bracket where theyd lose to No.
1 Seaside.
Hydnmans ring marks the second Capuchino
head coach at the helm of a major team to be let go
within the last year. Last February, former
Mustangs basketball coach Doug Fountain, now
the head man at Woodside High School, was red
for allegedly not playing a player who, according
to Fountain, repeatedly violated team rules.

COACH
Mayuga 3-pointer cut the Colts lead to 22-18
with 3:35 left in the rst half, but the Colts
defense fueled a 14-2 run to end the half with
El Camino holding a 36-20 lead at halftime.
El Camino point guard Elijah White was
virtually unstoppable in the rst 16 minutes as
he scored 14 of his 26 points. He made only
three shots from the eld, but his aggressive
drives to the hoops put him on the free-throw
line, where he made 8 of 10.
In the second half, Smith took over, scoring
15 of his 28 in just 14 minutes as he and White
were nally lifted from the game with 2:23
left in the game and the Colts holding a com-
manding lead.
Coming out in the second half, I tried to
get to the rim, all within the offense, Smith
said.
Westmoor, meanwhile, just could not nd a
rhythm offensively. Errol Fernandez was held
to just eight points and Mayuga to just seven.
Wai Min led the Rams with 20 points and 15
rebounds, while Alton Chen chipped in with
13.
The game plan was to keep them away
from the rim. Our game plan was to let them
shoot the mid-range jumpers, Junio said. I
think we kept them out of the paint for the
most part.
Smith said he could feel some sympathy for
the Rams, considering he knows a lot of their
players and has played with them during the
summer club season.
I know them on a personal basis, Smith
said. We know how they feel (after a disap-
pointing loss). Theyre really good basketball
players.
Smith also said, however, that his team was
looking to make a statement.
Theres been a lot of [people] who said we
wouldnt get as far as we did last year, Smith
said. The Colts won the PAL regular-season
and tournament championship and advanced
to the Central Coast Section Division III title
game.
We might not have the most talent, but we
have the grittiness.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
PITTSBURGH The headaches are gone.
Finally. So are the doubts, the ones Sidney
Crosby couldnt outrun as he rehabilitated from
concussion-like symptoms that robbed hockeys
best player from two years in the middle of his
prime.
Its no fun waking up the morning after a pun-
ishing workout and have your mind immediate-
ly drift to whether or not youll end the day in a
quiet room with the lights off hoping the pain
stops. Neither is fending off constant speculation
and breathless rumors about your health.
Those days, the Pittsburgh Penguins captain
insists, have vanished. They disappeared over
the summer, when Crosby began his annual
summer ritual back home in Canada of pushing
himself beyond his limits in an effort to regain
the form that made him the most dominant play-
er on the planet before a pair of hits to the head
in January 2011 seemed to put his career in jeop-
ardy.
Id be lying if I said the rst couple weeks I
wasnt evaluating that a bit but through the rst
few workouts, as long as anything doesnt come
up, you dont really think about it, Crosby said.
The 25-year-old heads is clear in more ways
than one. He signed a 12-year, $104.4 million
contract extension last June that will keep him in
Pittsburgh until hes pushing 40.
Now, all he has to do is go back to being
Sidney Crosby.
He never quite got there last spring. Sure, the
numbers look impressive: 37 points in 22 regu-
lar-season games. There was the spectacular
return to the ice against the New York Islanders
on Nov. 21, 2011, when he scored twice
including a dazzling backhand nish on and
end-to-end rush on his second shift.
Yet there was also the three months his missed
after the fuzziness as he called it resurfaced in
December 2011. There was the 12-game goal-
less drought, the longest of his career. There was
the breath-holding that happened every time he
went to dig out the puck in the corner or run into
an opponents wayward elbow. There was the
stunning rst-round postseason exit, when the
Penguins were blown out by Philadelphia in six
games.

MELBOURNE, Australia
Agnieszka Radwanska extended the
best winning streak of the year to 11
matches as she rolled into the third
round of the Australian Open with a
6-3, 6-3 victory over Romanias
Irina-Camelia Begu on Wednesday.
The No. 4-ranked Radwanska won
lead-up tournaments this month at
Auckland and Sydney and is unbeat-
en this year.
I can play even better, said
Radwanska, who lost last years
Wimbledon nal to Serena Williams.
I didnt really expect I could win
that many matches in a row, and
hopefully I can keep going.
Her last two trips to the Australian
Open have ended in quarternal loss-
es to the eventual champion Kim
Clijsters in 2011 and Victoria
Azarenka last year.
With top-ranked Azarenka and
Williams on the other half of the
draw, Radwanskas main obstacles to
reaching the nal are 2011 French
Open champion Li Na, who beat
Olga Goortsova of Belarus 6-2, 7-5
to reach the third round, and potential
seminal rivals Maria Sharapova or
No. 5 Angelique Kerber of Germany.
Kerber advanced with a 6-3, 6-1
win over Lucie Hradecka and No. 2-
ranked Sharapova, the reigning
French Open champion, was sched-
uled to play later Wednesday against
Japans Misaki Doi.
Williams hurt her ankle in her
opening victory on Tuesday, causing
speculation that her bid for a third
consecutive major title Open could
be in jeopardy. She has only lost one
match since her rst-round exit at the
French Open last year. Williams can-
celled a practice session at the indoor
courts on Wednesday afternoon.
In womens second-round match-
es, No. 11 Marion Bartoli beat
Serbian qualier Vesna Dolonc 7-5,
6-0, No. 18 Julia Gorges beat
Romina Oprandi 6-3, 6-2, Russian
qualier Valeria Savinykh upset No.
15 Dominika Cibulkova 7-6 (6), 6-4
and Kirsten Flipkens of Belgium
ousted No. 23 Klara Zakopalova 6-1,
6-0.
On the mens side, No. 4-ranked
David Ferrer needed five match
points before clinching a 6-0, 7-5, 4-
6, 6-3 win over American Tim
Smyczek, who got into the main
draw as a lucky loser from qualify-
ing.
Fifth-seeded Tomas Berdych beat
Guillaume Run of France 6-2, 6-2,
6-4, and No. 10 Nicolas Almagro and
No. 16-ranked Kei Nishikori also
moved on. No. 24 Jerzy Janowicz of
Poland rallied from two sets down to
overpower Indias Somdev
Devvarman 6-7 (10), 3-6, 6-1, 6-0, 7-
5.

Dozens killed in
blasts at Syria university
BEIRUT Twin blasts ripped through a
university campus in Syrias largest city on
Tuesday as students were taking exams, set-
ting cars alight, blowing the walls off dormito-
ry rooms and killing more than 80 people,
according to anti-regime activists and a gov-
ernment ofcial. The opposition and the gov-
ernment blamed each other for the explosions
inside Aleppo University, which marked a
major escalation in the struggle for control of
the hotly contested commercial hub.
Activists said forces loyal to President
Bashar Assad launched two airstrikes on the
area, while Syrian state media said a terrorist
group the governments shorthand for
rebels hit it with two rockets.
Either way, the explosions shattered the rel-
ative calm of the sprawling, tree-lined campus,
signaling the creep of Syrias civil war into
areas that were previously spared the violence
that has killed more than 60,000 people and
reduced entire neighborhoods to rubble.
French triple troops in
Mali, prepare for assault
BAMAKO, Mali After a punishing
bombing campaign failed to halt the advance
of al-Qaida-linked ghters, France pledged
Tuesday to triple the size of its force in Mali,
sending in hundreds more troops as it prepared
for a land assault to dislodge the militants
occupying the northern half of the country.
The move reversed Frances earlier insis-
tence on providing only aerial and logistical
support for a military intervention led by
African ground troops.
France plunged headrst into the conict in
its former colony last week, bombarding the
insurgents training camps, arms depots and
safe houses in an effort to shatter the Islamist
domination of a region many fear could
become a launching pad for terrorist attacks on
the West and a magnet for extremists from
around the world.
Pakistani court orders
PMs arrest amid huge rally
ISLAMABAD Pakistans leaders
received a powerful one-two punch Tuesday as
the Supreme Court ordered the arrest of the
prime minister in a corruption case and a re-
brand cleric led thousands of protesters in a
second day of anti-government demonstrations
in the capital. The events set the stage for
renewed political crisis in Pakistan, a key U.S.
ally in the ght against Islamic militants and
efforts to stabilize neighboring Afghanistan.
They sparked accusations that Pakistans top
judge and powerful generals were working to
destabilize the government ahead of parlia-
mentary elections expected in the spring, and
possibly delay the vote.
Around the world

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
BERLIN Call it Europes Got Talent for
geeks.
Teams of scientists from across the conti-
nent are vying for a funding bonanza that
could see two of them receive up to (euro) 1
billion ($1.33 billion) over 10 years to keep
Europe at the cutting edge of technology.
The contest began with 26 proposals that
were whittled down to six last year. Just four
have made it to the nal round.
They include a plan to develop digital
guardian angels that would keep people safe
from harm; a massive data-crunching machine
to simulate social, economic and technologi-
cal change on our planet; an effort to craft the
most accurate computer model of the human
brain to date; and a team working to nd bet-
ter ways to produce and employ graphene
an ultra-thin material that could revolutionize
manufacturing of everything from airplanes to
computer chips.
The two winners will be announced by the
European Unions executive branch in
Brussels on Jan. 28.
Initially, each project will receive (euro) 54
million from the European Unions research
budget, an amount that will be matched by
national governments and other sources.
Further funding will depend on whether they
reach certain milestones within the rst 30
months, but over a decade it could total (euro)
1 billion each.
Securing such vast sums will be made hard-
er by the austerity measures imposed by many
nancially drained European governments.
Still, the senior EU ofcial overseeing the
so-called Future and Emerging Technologies
Flagships program is condent the money will
be made available and insists the investment is
necessary if Europe wants to match the suc-
cess the CERN labs on the Swiss-French bor-
der that have become the worlds premier cen-
ter for particle research thanks to their $10 bil-
lion atom smasher.
Supporting research and development is
not a nice-to-have, it is essential because no
investment means no chance for a better
future, Neelie Kroes told the Associated
Press in an email. And especially during a
crisis we all need something positive to look
ahead to. Just cutting public expenditure and
austerity dont bring new growth and jobs.
North Countys needy.
The fact is we cannot continue to provide
any of these services without substantial sup-
port from the proceeds of Measure A, said
James Schuessler, interim CEO of Seton
Medical Center.
Whether the hospital remains sustainable is
a significant question without those
resources, he said.
Schuessler did not ask for a specic dollar
gure, instead focusing on the need and bene-
t to the county. The average population is the
same as the countys health plan, with approx-
imately 80 percent on Medi-Care or Medi-Cal
and 70 percent to 80 percent passing through
the emergency room, he said.
Schuessler said Seton is prepared to make a
long-term commitment to the county and
community if funded.
Maya Altman, CEO of Health Plan San
Mateo, echoed the idea that Seton, while
private, caters to a large needy population in
the North County and is a major partner
in the effort to expand senior services and
programs for mental health and those with
developmental disabilities.
Parks were another expected request, with
several speakers yesterday suggesting the
need for a dedicated natural resources profes-
sional and splitting the parks function away
from the Public Works Department where it
was consolidated as a cost-savings measure.
Julia Bott, executive director of the San
Mateo County Parks Foundation, also advo-
cated specically for eld staff.
They can do a lot and do double duty by
doing repairs and being a presence, Bott said.
Supervisor Carole Groom agreed on the
need for a resource management specialist in
the parks and also wants to separate parks and
public works or at least have a parks director.
SamTrans and San Mateo County serve
largely the same population through its trans-
portation offerings, including paratransit and
lifeline trips, said Mark Simon, SamTrans
executive ofcer of public affairs.
But barely any of the federally mandated
trips are reimbursed at the fare box and the
agency has an $131 million structural decit
to contend with along with debt service from
extending the BART line, he said.
The agency takes $10 million to $12 million
annually out of reserves to balance its budget
and is restricted nancially from the opportu-
nity to grow and innovate, he said.
SamTrans wants the county to use some of
the Measure A money to help the agency pro-
vide that transportation to the most needy,
including the disabled, young and the elderly.
If we do not nd some signicant relief we
will, within a relatively short period of time,
face drastic cuts to our budget and our servic-
es, Simon said.
At Tuesdays hearing, board President Don
Horsley appointed supervisors Adrienne
Tissier and David Pine to a subcommittee to
select and recommend how to set up the tax
oversight committee.
The board will receive a mid-year budget
update at the Jan. 29 meeting and pencil out
some more specic decisions on the tax Feb.
12, said County Manager John Maltbie. Any
agreement with Seton or creation of mental
health programs for schools, as suggested by
some speakers, will require further discussion
and board approval, Maltbie said.
Tissier suggested the board also receive an
economic development update and use the tax
money to leverage other dollars rather than
shell out for needs solely on the countys own.
She said replenishing reserves is also impor-
tant for the next rainy day.
But in the meantime, the supervisors said
they are happy for the challenge of doling out
the sales tax funds.
Its one of those good problems to have,
Pine said.

The conventional wisdom of cutting carbs
and calories generally has meant that pasta is
a no-go.
But recently, a new noodle has challenged
that thinking, giving dieters a fresh albeit
slightly different way to have their pasta
and their New Years resolutions. Were not
talking spaghetti squash which, while deli-
cious in its own right, has never made a satis-
fying substitute for the real deal.
Its so-called shirataki noodles that have
attracted the attention of so many dieters of
late. Their appeal? No carbs, no fat and almost
no calories.
No kidding?
Its true. These slightly chewy noodles
which usually are found alongside the tofu
and other refrigerated Asian foods in grocers
produce sections are made from a water-
soluble ber that comes from a type of sweet
potato (some are made with tofu as well,
which contains a tiny bit of fat). Though they
once were found only in Asian markets, they
have begun showing up in most large super-
markets.
And its not just a desire to cut carbs that is
fueling the growth of this product (which has
gone from just one or two varieties to many in
a span of a couple years). Food and shopping
expert Phil Lempert, founder and editor of
SupermarketGuru.com, says the growth of the
gluten-free (which shirataki happen to be) cat-
egory also is driving the popularity of this
product.
Shaped like spaghetti, fettuccine and even
rice, shirataki noodles come packed in water
and require nothing more than draining, rins-
ing and briey boiling.
And while these noodles can replace your
favorite pasta in many dishes, youll need to
keep in mind two things. First, dont skip the
rinsing step. This washes away a slight bitter-
ness and funky smell. Fear not, both disappear
entirely once youve rinsed and boiled.
Second, while they certainly are lling, in
keeping with their lack of carbs and calories
the noodles have virtually zero avor. But
Grace Young, author of Stir-Frying to the
Skys Edge, considers that an advantage. She
says a lack of avor makes shirataki the per-
fect ingredient for dishes where the other
ingredients or the sauce dene the dish.
Young was rst introduced to shirataki by a
home cook in the Philippines, who used the
carb-free noodles all the time because she was
diabetic, but still wanted pasta. Young says
she adds them to homemade broth with fresh
vegetables, or simply prepares them with a

Squeezing organic
food from pouches
By Michael Hill
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ALBANY, N.Y. Baby food used to have
an image as stable and bland as a jar
of strained peas. And its target market was
limited to, well ... babies.
No more.
Old-school glass jars of applesauce are
still around, but these days they share shelf
space in the baby food aisle with curious
(and often organic) combinations like zuc-
chini, banana and amaranth (its a grain)
packed in brightly colored pouches intended
to be squished and slurped by consumers
with little and not so little hands.
What we try to do is engage them, stimu-
late all of their senses, says Paul Lindley,
founder of Ellas Kitchen baby food, a pio-
neer in the use of pouch-style packaging.
Not just their taste sense, not just putting a
spoon in their mouth or a pouch into their
mouth ... but to try to stimulate all their
other senses.
Welcome to the world of premium baby
foods, part of a $1.5 billion industry thats
no longer just about babies. Babies dont
generally care much about food packaging.
But toddlers, older children and conven-
ience-driven parents do.
Pouches have allowed baby food makers
to broaden the appeal of their products
beyond the traditional baby food years.
Maureen Putman, chief marketing officer for
the Hain Celestial Group, maker of organic
brand Earths Best, says pouches have
helped fuel 11 percent growth at Earths
Best even as the U.S. birth rate declines.
Its allowing us to age up. Where moms
may have stopped baby food at 9 to 12
months, the pouches have really helped
extend the shelf life of baby food, she says.
We see growth for a long time to come.
Parents like Lindsey Carl, of Clarksville,
Tenn., make the case, saying pouches are a
less messy way to feed her 22-month-old
daughter and 10-month-old son simultane-
ously. They dont require a spoon, which
makes on-the-go easy, she says. You dont
have to worry about bringing a spoon:
Where do I wash the spoon? Where do I put
the spoon?
And the premium baby food world is an
increasingly crowded one, with other major
players including Plum Organics, Sprout,
the organic baby food company founded by
Food Network star Tyler Florence, and even
long established baby food maker Gerber.

Were excited about pouches and were the No. 1 in the
segment and we want to continue to grow it, said Aileen
Stocks, Gerbers head of integrated marketing.
Obviously, the premium trend also is about whats in the
pouches. And increasingly its organic. While organic
accounts for only about 4 percent of total U.S. food sales,
organic baby food represents a more impressive 21 percent
of that category, says Putman.
Gerber, with more than half the market, also is No. 1 in
pouch sales, with about a 30 percent share, Stocks said. She
said while organic pouches are driving growth in premium
products, Gerbers product line runs from infants to pre-
school and they are focusing on growth and innovation in all
the segments.
Pouches obviously, its an exciting story because youre
seeing a lot of it in the aisles right now, she said. But its
really just one part of the whole story as far as the childs
nutrition.
Putman says the popularity of organics is a sign that par-
ents are concerned about what theyre feeding their babies.
But there could be other reasons, too. The creative new
mixes available such as Plums sweet potato, mango and
millet, and Sprouts pasta with lentil Bolognese might
speak to Mom and Dads inner foodie.
Premium baby foods also bridge the gap between the par-
ents who feed out of jars and those who prefer a make-it-
from-scratch approach, creating a middle ground both sides
of that parenting debate are more comfortable with.
Florence sees Sprout as a way to expose more young
eaters to a wider variety of more flavorful foods. His own
Aha! moment came when a friends toddler was spitting
up old fashioned jar food. Florence steamed and pureed car-
rots, and the boy licked the bowl clean.
If youre feeding a child just sort of green gruel out of a
jar and theyre spitting it up all over their shirt, theyre say-
ing, Listen, I dont like this stuff, said Florence.
Organic pouches can run $1.69 for 4 ounces, compared to
99 cents for some jarred food. Still, Meagan Call of
Cleveland, Ohio, says she can get them on sale for about $1.
Call sees pouches as a healthy alternative to sugar-heavy
juice boxes for her 18-month-old son.
Theyre more like smoothies, Call said. Thats what I
see it as. Im giving him smoothies and smoothies are fairly
healthy as long as you dont overdo it.
Not everyone is cooing over pouches, though.
One common criticism is that in some cases a pouch will
read something like spinach and apples, giving an impres-
sion of a vegetable-rich meal even if the ingredient label
lists more apples than spinach. More pointedly, some critics
claim that parents tend to over-rely on pouches.
Dina Rose, a sociologist who writes the Its Not About
Nutrition blog, said while pouches can be a beneficial
bridge to fresh fruits and vegetables, they are no substi-
tute.
It lulls people into thinking that theyve done their fruit-
and-vegetable job. So theyre done, Rose said. And it gets
them out of what they think of as the struggle to get their
kids to eat fruit and vegetables.
good quality soy sauce and toasted
sesame oil.
Because of their bland flavor and
chewy texture, Young advises picking
companion ingredients for shirataki
carefully. Salty and bright, tangy avors
work well, along with crisp textures and
even the toothsome quality of cooked
mushrooms and meats. This way, she
says, every bite will have that perfect
blend of taste and consistency.
To give shirataki a more pasta-like
consistency, also try dry roasting them in
a well-oiled or nonstick skillet over high
heat for about a minute (be careful not to
burn them) before adding them to your
favorite dish.

T
his is my weeknight-friendly take on
fried chicken served on wafes, a
total comfort food perfect for a cold
winter night.
And two totally respectable convenience
foods make it a snap to get on the table in
almost no time rotisserie chicken and
frozen wafes. Im a big believer that if you
eat a lot of chicken and have a crazy busy
schedule, a rotisserie chicken should be a sta-
ple of your weekly shopping list. Dont
worry about what youll do with it. Since the
cooking is already done for you, sorting out
how youll eat it is the easy part.
I feel the same way about frozen whole-
grain wafes. I try to always have a box in
the freezer. Its not because my family eats
all that many for breakfast. But frozen waf-
es are a versatile workhorse in the kitchen. I
use them for sandwiches in my sons lunches
PB&J, ham and cheese, peanut butter and
banana, etc. all the time.
For this easy dinner, I used both of these
go-to ingredients, and dressed them with a
killer mushroom gravy. No frozen wafes
handy? You can serve this chicken and gravy
over toasted slabs of sourdough bread, too.

Servings: 4
1 tablespoon olive oil
Two 4-ounce contain-
ers sliced button mush-
rooms
1 medium yellow
onion, diced
2 cloves garlic,
minced
1/4 cup white wine
1 cup heavy cream
Salt and ground black
pepper
4 frozen wafes
Meat from a 2-pound rotisserie chicken,
warmed and shredded
In a large skillet over medium-high, heat
the oil. Add the mushrooms, onion and gar-
lic, then saute until the mushrooms are
browned and the pan is nearly dry, about 5
minutes.
Add the wine and stir to deglaze the pan.
When the wine has evaporated, stir in the
cream, then bring to a simmer. Season with
salt and pepper, then set aside.
Toast the wafes according to package
directions.
Place one toasted wafe on each serving
plate. Top with a heap of warmed, shredded
chicken, then spoon ample amounts of mush-
room gravy over it.

The weeknight-easy way
J.M. HIRSCH
By Alison Ladman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
The day of the big game calls for big, stick-
to-your-ribs grub.
So we went with that as a theme, creating a
recipe for boneless beef short ribs that are
inspired by all the sweet and sticky goodness
of Chinese-style pork ribs. To keep you in
front of the television instead of the stove, we
kept the recipe simple. Start by dumping
everything in a bowl to marinate. When youre
ready to cook, transfer it to a baking sheet and
pop it in the oven. Done.
To make sure the ribs are meltingly tender,
they cook low and slow while you watch the
rst half of the game. They should be good to
go right around half-time. And if beef isnt
your thing, the same approach will work with
pork ribs and chicken wings (though youll
need to adjust the cooking time).
SWEET AND STICKY
SLOW-COOKED SHORT RIBS
The servings indicated are for appetizer por-
tions. If the friends gathered around the game
are hearty eaters, or this is to be served as a
main course, plan accordingly.
Start to nish: 1 1/2 hours (plus marinating)
Servings: 12
1/2 cup hoisin sauce
1/2 cup rice vinegar
1/2 cup low-sodium soy sauce
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon red pepper akes
1/2 teaspoon ve-spice powder
2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
3 cloves minced garlic
3 pounds boneless beef short ribs, cut into
long, thin strips (1/4 inch thick by 1 inch
wide)
In a medium bowl, whisk together the
hoisin, rice vinegar, soy sauce, brown sugar,
red pepper akes, ve-spice powder, sesame
oil and garlic. Reserve 1/2 cup of the mixture
in a small bowl. Add the short ribs to the orig-
inal mixture and toss to thoroughly coat.
Cover the bowl and refrigerate at least 8 hours,
or overnight.
When ready to cook, heat the oven to 275 F.
Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with foil and
place a rack over each pan.
Arrange the short ribs on the rack and bake
for 45 to 60 minutes, or until tender. Brush the
ribs with the reserved 1/2 cup of marinade and
increase the oven temperature to 450 F. Return
to the oven and cook for another 10 minutes,
or until browned and caramelized. Thread a
skewer through each piece of meat to serve.
Sweet, sticky and totally
tender ribs for the game
Frozen wafes are a versatile workhorse in the kitchen.
If beef isnt your thing,the same approach will
work with pork ribs and chicken wings.

walled, open-beam construction and
open oor plan homes.
Eichler Homes, Inc. built its last home
in 1973, however, the year before Joseph
Eichler died.
Now, Ned Eichler wants to see the
homes reborn and is consulting Monique
Lombardelli, who recently formed the
Eichler Homes Development
Corporation after lming the documen-
tary People in Glass Houses: The
Legacy of Joseph Eichler with the help
of Ned.
Eichler and his company built about
11,000 homes, mostly in the Bay Area,
in the 1950s and 60s and Ned worked
alongside his father, working in the sales
ofce among other duties.
If I were younger and in better health,
I would do this myself, Ned Eichler, 82,
told the Daily Journal. He is impressed
with Lombardellis energy.
When I worked in the sales ofce, I
would have hired her, he said.
Lombardellis goal is to bring back the
company how Joseph Eichler left it, with
the same marketing, the same principles
of form and function and affordability
and up to todays codes. Eichlers con-
cept was to bring the outside in and he
achieved it with lots of glass and sky-
lights, often looking into gardens.
I noticed a huge market of buyers
wanting an Eichler and minimal invento-
ry, Lombardelli said.
She plans to start small and has an eye
on a three-acre lot in Portola Valley to
build the rst homes.
She is also hiring a team of architects
to bring the Eichler back to life and the
ultimate goal, she said, is to build an
entire neighborhood with new Eichlers.
She also considers herself a purist,
with an intent to keep to the original
home designs as possible.
Monique may be more of a purist
than I am, Ned Eichler told the Daily
Journal.
He intends to inspect plans for every
home, review the construction and the
design.
Im going to help her make it work,
he said.
Eichler now lives in Tiburon but not in
one of his fathers famous homes.
He recounted numerous arguments
with his famous father over items such
as heat and air conditioning. His father
was somewhat inexible, however.
Purity is not necessary, he said. Im
going to be more exible and not insist
on things.
Lombardellis passion for the home
grew as she lmed her documentary,
which recently won the CreaTiVe
Business Award at the San Jose Film
Festival.
Through her research, she discovered
that many Eichlers still have their origi-
nal owners and that they barely ever go
on the market.
Its a home that families will live in
until they die, she said.

tional $1.4 million in cuts in the 2013-14
and 2014-15 school years. On
Wednesday, the board will start dis-
cussing the parameters like the budget
development calendar and school clo-
sure, which is agendized as school con-
solidation.
In November, a report by the Fiscal
Sustainability Task Force put out some
possible options for cuts. For example,
closing a school could save $236,000;
eliminating contracted physical educa-
tion in fourth and fth grades would save
$110,000; moving a special education
class back to the district would save an
estimated $450,000; and furloughs could
save hundreds of thousands. Raising rev-
enue is also an option. Most notably, the
task force report shows renting a closed
school could generate more than
$600,000 annually.
How to proceed will be a difcult con-
versation for the district.
In April, the board voted against a pro-
posal to close two schools El Crystal
and Crestmoor elementary schools. The
conversation caused a community
uproar and meeting protests featured
children speaking about the importance
of their teachers and school community.
A petition with more than 900 signatures
was presented in opposition to the idea
of school closure. Another cause for
concern was how the talks of school clo-
sure had progressed.
The committee charged with making a
recommendation about which district
school to close found there were no
overwhelming reasons to close a school,
but suggested combining two schools if
the board were to move forward.
Talks about school closure had two
results: a parcel tax effort and a no con-
fidence online petition asking for
Superintendent David Hutt to be
replaced.
The districts Board of Trustees hoped
to curb the decit with Measure G, a
ve-year, $199 annual parcel tax that
failed on the Nov. 6 ballot. The measure
would have generated an estimated $2
million annually. Without it, the district
is back to talking about cuts this spring.
Also on Wednesday, the board will
consider formally ratifying a four-year
contract with Hutt from July, 1 2013
through June 30, 2017. The contract
calls for a base salary of $132,138 with
$8,000 in stipends recognizing his doc-
torate, time with the district, for life
insurance, and for a car allowance,
according to the staff report.
At the same meeting, the board will
again discuss the plans to convert El
Crystal Elementary into a magnet school
this fall. In November, the board
approved the proposal to allow the
school to focus on science, technical
engineering and mathematics (known as
STEM) in the 2013-14 school year.
The board meets 7 p.m. Wednesday,
Jan. 16 at the District Ofce, 500 Acacia
Ave., San Bruno.

BUDGET
Blanton, executive ofcer of the San
Mateo County Association of Realtors.
Only about 2 percent of the housing
stock in the city turns over annually.
Under this plan, it would take nearly 50
years to check the properties, he said.
As Realtors, we have serious practi-
cal and legal concerns with South San
Francisco invading the privacy of its cit-
izens with warrantless inspections, and
interfering with a citizens right to buy
or sell their home, Blanton said, who
added the group was willing to work
with the city but did not favor the pro-
posal.
A recent review of completed home
safety inspections showed the Fire
Department completed 454 inspections
in a 14-month period. During those
inspections, 15 percent, or 68 homes,
had a safety violation. Unpermitted con-
struction such as illegal bedrooms
and/or garage conversions was the
most common violation followed by
improperly installed water heaters and
window bar violations. About 5 percent
of the homes received a citation which,
in total, created less than $5,000 in nes,
White wrote.
Since 2005, White wrote that the city
has received a large number of com-
plaints for families living in a single-
family home neighborhood near a prop-
erty that was illegally converted into
apartments or a boarding house. Code
enforcement often found owners who
said they were unaware that the setup
was illegal because the home was pur-
chased in that condition. Looking for
illegal conversions was added to the
safety checklist in 2008 as a result, he
wrote.
The council meets 6:30 p.m.
Wednesday, Jan. 16 at the Municipal
Services Building, 33 Arroyo Drive.

you would usually reserve for weekends.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) Make a concerted
effort to stay in contact with family and/or friends
who are extremely important to your immediate
plans. Theyll be more inclined to help if youre in
close proximity.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) Dont hesitate to
think bigger-than-life when putting together a
fnancial endeavor. Conditions are exceptionally
good for you to pull off something on a grand scale.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) What works out well
for you is likely to do so for those with whom youre
directly involved. This is because everyone is apt to
be looking out for one anothers interests.

like theyre going against you, your associates are likely
to come through. Theyll not let you down.

lately and have the means to do something about it,
this might be a good time to make some travel plans.
Target a place that youve always wanted to visit.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) This could be a
proftable day in more ways than one. Although you
might gain fnancially, youll also learn something
extremely valuable in the process.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) Persons with whom
youll have one-on-one dealings, either socially and
commercially, are likely to treat you in a more bountiful
fashion than usual. Be just as generous in return.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) Your motives for
helping others will be honest and sincere, yet owing to
conditions of which youre unaware, youll be the one
who stands to beneft the most from your actions.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) Although
your rabbits foot might not be working in high-
risk situations, you still could be very lucky when
dealing with someone with whom you share strong
emotional bonds.
