HOUSE SPEAKER JOHN BOEHNER PUTS OFF VOTE
ON PLAN B
By Lisa Leff
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
California regulators on
Thursday unanimously approved
a two-year Pacific Gas and
Electric Co. rate increase of $299
million to help pay for pipeline
inspection and upgrade costs in
the wake of the fatal 2010 gas
pipeline explosion in San Bruno.
The amount approved by the
California Public Utilities
Commission was considerably less
than the nearly $769 million PG&E
had sought, but more than survivors
of the blast felt the company should
be allowed. Residential customers
will see their monthly bills go up by
an average of 88 cents next year and
$1.36 in 2014, utility spokeswoman
Brittany Chord said.
The money is aimed at safety test-
ing, replacing and upgrading hun-
dreds of miles of PG&Es gas trans-
mission lines after the Sept. 9, 2010,
blast that killed eight people and
destroyed 38 homes in the bedroom
community of San Bruno. The total
cost of those improvements has
been estimated at around $2.2 bil-
lion.
Consumer advocates and sur-
vivors of the inferno sparked by a
ruptured pipeline nonetheless criti-
cized commissioners for a last-
minute decision Thursday to scrap
an administrative law judges pro-
posal to lower how much PG&E
shareholders will be allowed to
prot in the next few decades from
investments connected to the safety
improvements.
The nonprofit Utility Reform
Network legal director Tom Long
said the commissions move means
that ratepayers ultimately will be
footing 55 percent of the safety
PG&E customers help foot bill

SACRAMENTO In response
to the killing of schoolchildren in
Connecticut, the federal government
should consider Californias strate-
gy for dealing with mental illness,
experts and lawmakers said
Thursday.
The Mental Health Services Act
passed by voters in 2004 levied a
special tax on high-income residents
to pay for housing, medication, ther-
apy and other services.
The tax has helped more than
60,000 Californians. A fth of the
money is dedicated to prevention
and early intervention, though The
Associated Press reported in August
that tens of millions of dollars had
gone to general wellness programs
for people who had not been diag-
nosed with any mental illness.
Senate President Pro Tem Darrell
Steinberg said the act that he cham-
pioned has been effective in promot-
ing early and broad-ranging inter-
vention.
He sent a letter to Vice President
Joe Biden, urging him to consider
Californias experience as he seeks
ways to increase mental health
resources and avert violence.
On Wednesday, President Barack
Obama instructed Biden to oversee
the administration-wide review that
also will consider gun control legis-
lation and ways to keep society from
glamorizing guns and violence.
The federal government should
match money raised in California
and other states to create the foun-
State offered as
national model
for mental health

Richard Lipn and Jerry Spence were homeless last year at this time.This year, they both live in the Vendome, a
facility in downtown San Mateo owned by the city and operated by InnVision Shelter Network to provide services
for the formerly homeless.
By Bill Silverfarb
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Last Christmas, Jerry Spence was
living in a Volkswagen van in down-
town San Mateo but at least he had
some shelter from the cold, unlike
some of the other chronically home-
less in the area. Richard Lipn spent
last Christmas pacing back and forth
in the parking lot of the downtown
Caltrain station on not what he
would call his best day. Lipn didnt
have a van to call home, though. He
had nothing really.
This year is a little different for
the two men as they both now live at
the Vendome, run by InnVision
Shelter Network and owned by the
city of San Mateo to provide perma-
nent supportive housing for the for-
merly chronic homeless. The city
bought the old hotel in 2009 to
address its homeless problem down-
town. It also created the Homeless
Outreach Team and downtown
police Ofcer Robert Anderson was
instrumental in reaching out to
homeless people living downtown
to bring them off the streets and into
housing.
Anderson is retired now but both
Spence and Lipn credit the man for
helping to make their lives more
healthy today.
All three celebrated with each
other yesterday as San Mateo Police
Chief Susan Manheimer hosted an
annual holiday party at the Vendome
for the people who live there and the
staff who provide services for them.
Lipfin, 46, was homeless for
about two years in downtown.
Having some mental health issues,
he now has access to psychiatry and
is being helped by InnVision Shelter
Network to access other critical
services to help the man lead a
healthy life. Not to mention the
daily hot showers he missed out on
for two years.
Spence, 66, lived in the van for
A healthy holiday

In Mexico, New Agers
hope Dec. 21 brings new era
MERIDA, Mexico The crystal
skulls have spoken: The world is not
going to end.
American seer Star Johnsen-Moser
led a whooping, dancing, drum-beating
ceremony Thursday in the heart of
Mayan territory to consult several of the
life-sized crystal skulls, which adherents
claim were passed down by the ancient
Maya.
The skulls werent the only inheri-
tances left by the ancient civilization
that have been making waves this week:
The supposed end of the Maya long-
count calendar on Friday has prompted a
wave of doomsday speculation across
the globe.
This is not the end of the world, this
is the beginning of the new world,
Johnsen-Moser said at a gathering of
hundreds of spiritualists at a convention
center in Merida. It is most important
that we hold a positive, beautiful reality
for ourselves and our planet ... Fear is
out of place.
The supposed 5 a.m. Friday doomsday
hour had already arrived in several parts
of the world with no sign of the apoca-
lypse.
The social network Imgur posted pho-
tos of clocks turning midnight in the
Asia-Pacic region with messages such
as: The world has not ended. Sincerely,
New Zealand.
In Merida, the celebration of the cos-
mic dawn began with a fumbling of the
sacred re meant to honor the calendars
conclusion.
Gabriel Lemus, the white-haired
guardian of the ame, burned his nger
on the kindling and later had to scoop up
a burning log that was knocked out of
the ceremonial brazier onto the wooden
stage.
Still, the white-clad Lemus was con-
vinced that it was a good start, as he was
joined by about 1,000 other shamans,
seers, stargazers, crystal enthusiasts,
yogis, sus and swamis at the conven-
tion center about an hour and a half from
the Mayan ruins at Chichen Itza.
It is a cosmic dawn, said Lemus.
We will recover the ability to commu-
nicate telepathically and levitate objects
... like our ancestors did.
Celebrants later held their arms in the
air in a salute to the Thursday morning
sun.
The galactic bridge has been estab-
lished, announced spiritual leader
Alberto Arribalzaga, who led the cere-
mony. At this moment, spirals of light
are entering the center of your head ...
Generating powerful vortexes that cover
the planet.
Few here believe the world will end on
Friday; the summit is scheduled to run
through Sunday. Instead, participants
say, they are here to celebrate the birth
of a new age.
A Mexican Indian seer who calls him-
self Ac Tah, and who has traveled
around Mexico erecting small pyramids
he calls neurological circuits, said he
holds high hopes for Dec. 21.
We are preparing ourselves to receive
a huge magnetic eld straight from the
center of the galaxy, he said.
Terry Kvasnik, 32, a stunt man and
acrobat from Manchester, England, said
his motto for the day is Be in love,
dont be in fear. While he didnt know
exactly which ceremony hell attend on
Friday, he guaranteed with a smile, Im
going to be in the happiest place I can.
Set up in the conferences exhibition
hall were dozens of booths, where in
addition to having your aura pho-
tographed with Chi light, you can buy
mandalas, get a shamanic cleansing,
develop your golden light and buy
sandals, herbs and whole-grain baked
goods. Cleansing here is done studious-
ly and repeatedly, and usually involves
copal incense waved around ones body.
Visitors could also learn the art of
healing drumming with a Mexican
Otomi Indian master who calls himself
Dabadi Thaayroyadi and says his slen-
der, handheld, plate-sized drums are
made with prayers embedded into them.
He said the drums emit an intelligent
energy that can heal emotional, physi-
cal and social ailments.
During the opening ceremony partici-
pants chanted mantras to the blazing
Yucatan sun, which quickly burned the
fair-skinned crowd.

BAY CITY NEWS SERVICE
Several Bay Area legislators Thursday
announced plans to expand two Northern
California national marine sanctuaries with
the National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration.
U.S. Sen. Barbara Boxer, U.S. Rep. Lynn
Woolsey, D-Petaluma, and fellow representa-
tives Barbara Lee, D-Oakland, and Jackie
Speier, D-San Mateo, joined together with
other federal ofcials in Washington, D.C., to
announce the expansion of the boundaries of
the Gulf of the Farallones and Cordell Bank
national marine sanctuaries.
The expanded area would extend from the
waters of Bodega Bay in Sonoma County to
Alder Creek in Mendocino County, which
includes Point Arena to the north, according to
NOAA ofcials.
The sanctuaries, established by Congress in
the 1980s, together already protect nearly
2,000 square miles of ocean near the coast of
San Francisco. Woolsey has been champi-
oning for expanded protection since 2004 by
introducing legislation to Congress. The
north coast of California is one of the most
beautiful and pristine, she said at Thursdays
news conference. This area is a national
treasure.
She called the sanctuaries a protective
shield that is expected to move forward with
expansion plans through NOAA within the
next 18 to 24 months starting in January.
The proposed plan would expand the sanc-
tuaries by more than 2,000 square miles, dou-
bling the area. Woolsey compared the sanctu-
aries as about the same size as the state of
Delaware.
The process to designate a larger nautical
area as a marine sanctuary involves NOAAs
Ofce of National Marine Sanctuaries, who
started a public process to review the bound-
aries. Comments will be accepted through
March 1, according to NOAA ofcials.
Three public scoping meetings are sched-
uled. One will be held at Bodega Bay Grange
Hall in Bodega Bay at 6 p.m. on Jan. 24.
Two other meetings will be held in February
in Point Arena and Gualala.
Boxer praised ongoing efforts to increase
the coastal area that is protected by law from
oil drilling, dumping, and excessive boat traf-
c and other use.
She noted the dozens of threatened or
endangered species, including the humpback
whale and leatherback turtle, that will be fur-
thered protected under the expansion.
The area is also known for its 300 species of
sh, abundance of seabirds and large stock of
the worlds whale and dolphin species, Boxer
said.
Along with protecting the environment,
Woolsey is concerned about maintaining the
economic status of the area, where industries
including shing and tourism provide many
jobs.
Jobs and livelihoods hang in the balance,
she said.
Boxer echoed those concerns, claiming the
expanded sanctuaries will preserve half a
million jobs.
Lee thanked Woolsey and other representa-
tives for pushing for the expansion to protect
the environment.
We are going to be a safe and secure and
pure place, she said.
Speier touched on the legacy Woolsey is
leaving behind before she retires Jan. 3.
Our real job is planning for and protecting
the future, Speier said.
Gov. Jerry Brown, other state and regional
leaders and many environmental advocates
have come out in support of the expansion,
according to Woolsey.

Jail and probation
for mugger who
stabbed teen, 17
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
A would-be mugger accused of stabbing a teenage Good
Samaritan who stepped in at his mothers urging in April was
sentenced yesterday to a year in jail and supervised probation
for possessing a dagger.
Hector Mora, 30, pleaded no contest last month to that
charge rather than stand trial on counts of attempted robbery
and assault with a deadly weapon. Mora also admitted having
a prior strike conviction in return for no more than 32 months
in prison.
Prosecutors sought the maximum time allowed but a judge
dismissed his prior strike and imposed the lesser term. He has
credit of 189 days against the term and the court recommend
he be allowed on work furlough after surrendering to jail Feb.
2.
San Mateo police arrested Mora April 12 not far from the
Monte Diablo Avenue overcrossing where they say he con-
fronted a 55-year-old Spanish-speaking man with a knife and
asked what he had in his bag.
A San Mateo woman who spotted the confrontation yelled
to her sons, ages 17 and 20, and they ran from their apartment
to the bridge. Mora allegedly raised the knife to the 17-year-
old, stabbing him in the hand and forearm, before running
away. The teen required eight stitches.
Police arrested Mora nearby and the victim and sons identi-
ed him.
He has been free from custody on $50,000 bail.

NEWTOWN, Conn. While the people of
Newtown do their best to cope with loss and
preserve the memories of their loved ones,
another class of residents is also nding it dif-
cult to move on: the emergency responders
who saw rsthand the terrible aftermath of last
weeks school shooting.
Firefighter Peter Barresi was driving
through Newtown on Friday when police cars
with lights ashing and sirens blaring raced
toward his oldest sons elementary school.
After he was sent to Sandy Hook school him-
self, he saw things that will stay with him for-
ever.
With anguished parents searching for their
children, he prepared to receive the wounded,
but a paramedic came back empty-handed,
underscoring the totality of the massacre.
Barresi, whose own son escaped unharmed,
later discovered that among the 26 dead were
children who played baseball with his son and
had come to his house for birthday parties.
For some of us, its fairly difcult, said
Barresi, of the Sandy Hook Volunteer Fire and
Rescue Co. Fortunately most of us did not go
in.
Newtown and environs weathered a fourth
day of funerals Thursday, six days after a 20-
year-old gunman killed his mother at home, 20
children and six adults at the school and him-
self for reasons still unknown. Mourners laid
to rest Catherine Hubbard, Benjamin Wheeler,
Jesse Lewis and Allison Wyatt, all 6 years old;
and Grace McDonnell, 7.
A service was held in Katonah, N.Y., for
teacher Anne Marie Murphy, 52, who authori-
ties believe helped shield some of her students
from the rain of bullets. Roman Catholic
Cardinal Timothy Dolan compared her to
Jesus.
Like Jesus, Annie laid down her life for her
friends, Dolan said. Like Jesus, Annies life
and death brings light, truth, goodness and
love to a world often shrouded in darkness,
evil, selshness and death.
A bell tolled Thursday at Newtowns St.
Rose of Lima Roman Catholic Church at the
funeral for Catherine, who her family said
would be remembered for her passion for ani-
mals and her constant smile.
Trinity Episcopal church on Main Street was
lled to capacity for the funeral for Benjamin,
described as a budding musician and Beatles
fan. His service included a rendition of Here
Comes The Sun. About two dozen Boy Scout
leaders lined the front pathway to the church
in honor of the former Cub Scout.
In downtown Danbury, mourners led into
the ornate white-pillared First Congregational
Church for a memorial service for 30-year-old
teacher Lauren Rousseau. Friends wept at the
altar as they remembered the spirited, hard-
working, sunny-natured woman who bright-
ened their lives with silliness and gave them all
nicknames.
The gunmans mother, Nancy Lanza, also
was laid to rest Thursday, in a private ceremo-
ny at an undisclosed location in tiny Kingston,
N.H., where she used to live. About 25 family
members attended, the towns police chief
said.
Gov. Dannel Malloy has asked people
across Connecticut to observe a moment of
silence at 9:30 a.m. Friday, which will mark a
week since the shootings. Places of worship
and buildings with bells have been asked to
ring them 26 times, for the victims at the
school. Ofcials and clergy in many other
states have said they will also participate.
While family, friends and even strangers
weep, members of the emergency forces that
responded to the shooting, many of them vol-
unteers, are wrestling with frustration, guilt
and anguish as they receive counseling from a
state intervention team to help them deal with
the horrors they saw and heard.
Authorities say the victims were shot with a
high-powered, military-style rie loaded with
ammunition designed to inflict maximum
damage. All the victims had been shot at least
twice, the medical examiner said, and as many
as 11 times. Two victims were pronounced
dead at a hospital, while all others died in the
school.

SACRAMENTO Expanding the states
Medi-Cal program to meet new federal guide-
lines could add up to $4
billion a year in costs at
the same time California is
implementing federal
health reform, potentially
putting its budget right
out of whack, Gov. Jerry
Brown said Thursday.
In a telephone interview
with the Associated Press,
Brown said his adminis-
tration is seeking federal waivers for some of
the proposed expansions to Californias health
care program for the poor. The changes could
add more than a million people to the 7.7 mil-
lion already served under the states version of
Medicaid.
Were very interested in seeing everyone
as many people as possible covered, but
I am very concerned that negotiations in
Washington could have huge negative impacts
in California by loading billions of dollars of
new and unexpected costs that will just take
our budget and put it right out of whack, the
Democratic governor said.
States must commit to fully expanding cov-
erage for individuals who make up to about
$15,400 a year, or about 138 percent of the
federal poverty limit, in order to tap more gen-
erous funding. California is one of many states
that have yet to decide whether to expand their
programs.
In California, the change would add
between 1 million and 1.4 million people to
Medi-Cal. The state is also in the process of
moving 900,000 children to Medi-Cal from
the health insurance program known as
Healthy Families.
We certainly are going to come out with a
program that will chart a path to expand Medi-
Cal eligibility, but the federal government has
to give us the tools so that we can temper the
rising costs in health care, he said.
Brown said adding more people to the rolls
goes beyond what the state has available to
pay for it unless we can get waivers and law
changes that will allow us to deliver a health
care with a more, lets say, judicious, business
model.
Medicaid, the federal-state health insurance
program for the poor and disabled, is one of
two primary ways in which the Affordable
Care Act will expand coverage for people who
currently have no health insurance. California
has been aggressive in setting up its new
health insurance exchange, which will make
subsidized private health insurance available
starting in 2014.
Under the law, the federal government will
cover 100 percent of the cost for the rst three
years of the expansion, gradually phasing
down to a 90 percent share still a far more
generous match than the 50 percent states
have traditionally received. Theres no dead-
line for states to decide, and they can try the
expansion and later cancel it if it doesnt work
out.
Two nonpartisan groups, the Kaiser Family
Foundation and the Urban Institute, said in a
recent report that states can expect to receive
$9 in federal funds for every $1 they spend on
the expansion.
But some governors worry that Medicaid is
already a strain on their state budgets. The
Supreme Court in June gave states the right to
opt out of the expansion.
A report released this week by the National
Conference of State Legislatures found that
rising health care costs are boosting state
Medicaid costs, and that spending on public
health programs is over budget in 10 states,
compared with six at this time last year.
Texas Medicaid program was underfunded
by $4.3 billion in its 2012-13 biennial budget,
West Virginia estimates it will be over budget
by $180 million next year, and Maine noted
that despite declining caseload, Medicaid
spending continues to increase, the report stat-
ed.
Brown: Medi-Cal expansion
could hit California budget
Jerry Brown
I am very concerned that
negotiations in Washington
could have huge negative
impacts in California by loading
billions of dollars of new and
unexpected costs that will just
take our budget and put it right
out of whack.
Gov. Jerry Brown
STATE GOVERNMENT
State senators Jerry Hill, D-San Mateo, and Mark Leno, D-San
Francisco, announced the introduction of the California DISCLOSE
Act, which would require that the top three funders of political ads be
clearly identied on the ads themselves and on the campaigns web-
site.
The acronym DISCLOSE stands for Democracy is Strengthened
by Casting Light on Spending in Elections. Hills and Lenos bill,
SB 52, is sponsored by the California Clean Money Campaign and would apply to adver-
tising for ballot measure campaigns, independent expenditures and issue advocacy. The leg-
islation will be heard in Senate policy committees early in the coming year. A 2012 version
of DISCLOSE legislation, AB 1648, passed the Assembly on a 50-26 vote, but ran out of
time to pass the Senate, according to Hills ofce.

DES MOINES, Iowa The rst wide-
spread snowstorm of the season plodded
across the Midwest on Thursday, as whiteout
conditions sent drivers sliding over slick roads
and some travelers were forced to scramble
for alternate ways to get to their holiday desti-
nations.
The storm, which dumped a foot of snow in
parts of Iowa and more than 19 inches in
Wisconsin state capital, was part of a system
that began in the Rockies earlier in the week
before trekking into the Midwest. It was
expected to move across the Great Lakes
overnight before moving into Canada.
The storm led airlines to cancel about 1,000
ights ahead of the Christmas holiday rel-
atively few compared to past big storms,
though the number was climbing.
Most of the canceled flights were at
Chicagos OHare and Midway international
airports. At OHare, many people were taking
the cancellations in stride and the normally
busy airport was much quieter than normal
Thursday evening.
Aprielle Kugler said she was considering
taking a bus to Des Moines on Friday morning
to visit her boyfriend after she had two ights
canceled out of OHare. Sitting on top of her
luggage, the 18-year-old from Wisconsin said
her mom shoveled more than a foot of snow
out of the familys driveway that morning to
drive her to Chicago for her ight.
Its so ridiculous, its funny now, Kugler
said.
The storm made travel difcult from Kansas
to Wisconsin, forcing road closures, including
a 120-mile stretch of Interstate 35 from Ames,
Iowa through Albert Lea, Minn. Iowa and
Wisconsin activated National Guard troops to
help rescue stranded drivers.
In Iowa, two people were killed and seven
injured in a 25-vehicle pileup. Drivers were
blinded by blowing snow and didnt see vehi-
cles that had slowed or stopped on Interstate
35 about 60 miles north of Des Moines, state
police said.

WASHINGTON Confronted with a
revolt among the rank and file, House
Republicans abruptly
scrapped a vote Thursday
night on legislation allow-
ing tax rates to rise for
households earning $1
million and up, complicat-
ing attempts to avoid a
year-end scal cliff that
threatens to send the econ-
omy into recession.
The legislation did not
have sufficient support
from our members to pass, Speaker John
Boehner conceded in a brief statement. At the
same time he challenged President Barack
Obama and Senate Majority Leader Harry
Reid, D-Nev., to work on legislation to avoid
across-the-board tax increases and deep
spending cuts due to take effect in less than
two weeks.
The Senate must now act, said the Ohio
Republican, who has noted recently that he
has taken risks in supporting higher tax rev-
enues during several weeks of fruitless nego-
tiations on the scal cliff.
In a statement released a short while later,
the White House said the presidents main
priority is to ensure that taxes dont go up on
98 percent of Americans and 97 percent of
small businesses in just a few short days. The
president will work with Congress to get this
done and we are hopeful that we will be able
to nd a bipartisan solution quickly that pro-
tects the middle class and our economy.
Reids ofce sounded a more combative
note. The only way to avoid the cliff alto-
gether is for Speaker Boehner to return to
negotiations and work with President Obama
and the Senate to forge a bipartisan deal,
spokesman Adam Jentleson said.
Earlier, emerging from a hurriedly-called
evening meeting of House Republicans, Ohio
Rep. Steve LaTourette said Boehner had told
lawmakers hes going to call the president
and hes going to go down and talk to him and
maybe they can hammer something out.
The turn of events marked a major personal
defeat for Boehner and yet another indication
of the power of Tea Party-backed lawmakers
who helped Republicans gain a majority in the
2010 elections.
One rst-termer, Rep. Tim Huelskamp, said
the developments were a victory for
Republican principles. The Kansas
Republican is one of three lawmakers recent-
ly stripped of favored committee assignments
for bucking the leadership.
House GOP puts off vote on Plan B
Here are some key dates for negotiations
involving the White House and
congressional leaders to avert the year-
end series of federal tax increases and
spending cuts known as the scal cliff:
Its unclear if and when a deal may be
reached, but its unlikely to be before
Christmas. Senators are expected to leave
for their holiday break Thursday or Friday.
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said
lawmakers would return to the Capitol
on Dec. 27, the Thursday after Christmas,
to try to hammer out a compromise.
President Barack Obamas family is
expected to be in Hawaii for Christmas,
but the president is hanging back for now
in Washington.
If lawmakers reach Dec. 31 without a
deal, nancial markets might start to fall.
House Speaker John Boehner and
Obama are working to avoid that crunch
point.
The current Congress is in session only
through noon Eastern on Jan. 3, so that
is the deadline for it to approve a solution.
Without an agreement, the tax increases
and spending cuts would begin to go
into effect and it would be up to the
newly elected Congress that arrives Jan.
3 to try again for compromise.

WASHINGTON The House on Thursday
overwhelmingly passed a $633 billion defense
bill for next year despite Pentagon complaints
that it spares outdated but politically popular
weapons at the expense of the militarys abili-
ty to ght.
The vote was 315-107 and sent the legisla-
tion to the Senate, where leaders hoped to wrap
up the measure. The White House had threat-
ened a veto of earlier versions of the bill, and
spokesman Jay Carney said Thursday that the
threat still stands.
The far-reaching policy bill that covers the
cost of ships, aircraft, weapons and military
personnel would authorize $528 billion for the
Defense Departments base budget, $17 billion
for defense and nuclear programs in the Energy
Department and $88.5 billion for the war in
Afghanistan.
The bill is $1.7 billion more than Obama
requested.
House Republicans and Democrats debated
the measure against the backdrop of high-
stakes talks to avert the so-called scal cliff of
automatic tax hikes and spending cuts and the
loud cry for a sweeping deal to slash the decit.
Democrats argued that the bill runs counter
to demands for scal discipline.
This bill is more money than the Pentagon
wants, said Rep. Jim McGovern, D-Mass.
Were just throwing money at them.
Specically, the bill spares a version of the
Global Hawk unmanned aircraft, includes
upgrades for tanks and money for armored
vehicles.
In a speech this week, Defense Secretary
Leon Panetta criticized the pressure on the
Pentagon to keep weapons that it doesnt want.
Aircraft, ships, tanks, bases, even those that
have outlived their usefulness, have a natural
political constituency. Readiness does not,
Panetta said.
Whats more, readiness is too often sacri-
ced in favor of a larger and less effective
force. I am determined to avoid that outcome,
he said.
Panetta said members of the House and
Senate diverted about $74 billion of what we
asked for in savings in our proposed budget to
the Congress, and they diverted them to other
areas that, frankly, we dont need.
House Armed Services Committee
Chairman Howard Buck McKeon, R-Calif.,
insisted that the bill safeguards military readi-
ness in times of declining budgets.
The bill responds to the new threats and
upheaval around the globe while still providing
billions for the decade-plus war in Afghanistan.
The measure would tighten sanctions on Iran,
increase security at diplomatic missions world-
wide after the deadly Sept. 11 raid in Libya and
presses the military on possible options to end
the bloodshed in Syria.
The nal measure, a product of negotiations
between the House and Senate, addresses sev-
eral concerns raised by the Obama administra-
tion. It eliminates restrictions on alternative
fuels that the White House had complained
about and jettisons limits on the administra-
tions ability to implement a nuclear weapons
reduction treaty.

Those king tides caused quite a stir
around the San Mateo County womens
jail in Redwood City last week ham-
pering operations and preventing the pub-
lic from visiting inmates for four days, a
sheriffs spokeswoman said. The womens
correctional facility, located at 1590
Maple St., is situated on land that is basi-
cally at sea level and its location makes it
prone to flooding from heavy rains and
high tides such as the king tide that
impacted the area on Thursday. King
tides, which usually occur at least once a
year, are caused by a unique position of
the sun and moon.

Bank robber nabbed
A parolee with a history of bank robbery
was arrested for allegedly taking over a
Foster City bank with a gun and mask the
week of Dec. 21, 2007.
Antoine Drake, 47, was arrested when
police spotted his car at the intersection of
Hillsdale and Edgewater boulevards, less than
a mile from a reported bank robbery just min-
utes earlier. A man matching Drakes descrip-
tion, wearing a black mask and holding black
semi automatic handgun entered Citibank,
located at 951 Edgewater Blvd., shortly after
9 a.m. Thursday of that week. The man
ordered everyone to the oor and demanded
money from the tellers before leaving the
bank and eeing in a white Toyota Rav4.

OPINION 9
End of days
(maybe not)
I
f you are reading this column,
you made it through the apoc-
alypse. Or, you have decided
to spend your last minutes on this
earth reading the
Daily Journal, in
which case, I
thank you, but
urge you to nd
something else
to do.
But if the sky
isnt falling, the
oceans havent
swallowed you,
the land hasnt
sucked you into magma and zom-
bies arent attacking your eyeballs,
then I suppose all that hype was just
that, hype. Or maybe it was so we
can all take a few moments to real-
ize how cool our lives really are.
Either way, it does make one
pause as to why there is often so
much ongoing talk about the end of
days. Disaster movies are always a
hit, whether it be about the Earths
core losing its spin, a meteor hitting
us, aliens attacking us or terrible
earthquakes and tidal waves, now
known, for some reason, as
tsunamis. I admit, tsunami is more
fun to say than tidal wave. But thats
not important.
What is important is that we made
it to Dec. 21, 2012 all relatively
unscathed. The Earth is ne, planes
havent dropped from the sky, satel-
lites havent been torched by solar
ares and we still must do our
Christmas shopping. At least we can
still use our smartphones. Now that
would be a true disaster.
The runup to today included real-
ly vague information on how the
world was supposed to end. And
being in the news business, I needed
some sort of scientic theory from
multiple sources. But alas, there was
nothing. A coworker emailed a
newspaper graphic with various sce-
narios and scientic refutations with
the resultant conclusion as being,
enjoy yourself. We made it.
Now there will be some other
cretin to come up with a conclusion
that we will all die in some sort of
cataclysmic event tied to some other
mark on the calendar, theory in their
mind or random collection of data
that can be conjured into a conclu-
sion by that very same cretin. And
the rest of us will go, huh, and
move about our day-to-day activi-
ties. But what fun is that? It is much
more fun to stock up on disaster
supplies, plan our demise or make a
run on candy like some supposedly
did in Russia and China in prepara-
tion for the end of the world
though Chinese government of-
cials did arrest about 500 people for
spreading rumors about that very
same end of the world. Thats no
fun.
But for now, until someone comes
up with an another end of days
scenario to distract us from actual
problems we face, we must face
those problems head-on. Like the
possibility of spending reductions
and tax increases so eloquently
described as the scal cliff that
should have been addressed more
than a year ago. Or the pending
increase in our health premiums. Or
what the state budget will reveal in
January. Or ... wait, thats no fun.
When is the next end of the world
again? It might still be today, after
all, the day isnt over. But at least
you made it to the end (of this col-
umn).

I
n the wake of the shooting at
Sandy Hook Elementary, we
are all asking ourselves what
can be done to make sure this is the
last of such tragedies. Sadly, there is
no single law that could be passed,
no assurance made, no panacea that
would guarantee that a madman may
take their rage out on innocents. I
believe, however, we can take steps
as a society to reduce the chances
that these terrible events occur and
minimize the damage done when
they do.
First, I intend to close a major
loophole in Californias Assault
Weapon Ban that gun manufacturers
exploit to skirt the intent of the
statute. Studies have shown that
states and nations with strong gun
laws have lower rates of rearm
related deaths. For years, California
had the strongest prohibitions against
such dangerous weapons of war.
Unfortunately, since the California
assault weapon ban went into effect,
manufacturers have found a loophole
and designed a product called a bul-
let button, which allows the legal
sale of many assault weapons in the
state of California. I will close this
loophole to stem
the proliferation
of these military
style weapons
designed for no
other purpose
than to kill.
Second, I am
authoring a bill
to require gun
owners to store their guns properly
and safely. Much has been made of
the fact that the Newtown killer used
his familys guns to commit this
recent atrocity. The use of trigger
locks and proper storage could have
put one more obstacle between him
and these deadly weapons.
It is far too common that children
come in contact with guns which are
not properly stored, and the results
are often deadly. In 2009, more than
3,500 minors were the victims of an
accidental shooting, many of which
could have been prevented by safely
storing the rearm or using a trigger
lock. While current law requires gun
owners to prove they have a safe
storage device to purchase a weapon,
the law does not insist that they actu-
ally use it. My bill will require that
all guns be equipped with a safety
lock and stored in a lock box when
not in use. Such a law has been
effective in Massachusetts and
should be implemented throughout
the country.
Third, I want to look at our system
for conducting background checks
on the purchasers of rearms to see if
we can nd additional efciencies in
the way we cross-reference databas-
es. Last year, we passed legislation
that nally brought sufcient funding
to the Armed Prohibited Person
System, which tracks who is prohib-
ited from purchasing and possessing
rearms. Unfortunately, in the years
prior to the passage of this bill, many
individuals who owned rearms
committed crimes or were found to
be adjudicated by the courts as men-
tally unsound. This resulted in a
backlog of thousands of weapons in
the hands of prohibited persons.
Adequate funding for this program
that removes rearms from criminals
is essential to keeping us safe. While
we do not have a crystal ball that can
tell us who will or wont commit a
violent act, we should at least be able
to make sure those with a history of
violent behavior cant sit on a stock-
pile of weapons and ammunition.
And there are other steps we must
take, such as increased funding for
mental health services and the further
implementation of Lauras Law to
make sure those who are a threat to
themselves and others are provided
treatment.
The debate over the use of guns
has long been a contentious one. I do
not doubt there are some who believe
these restrictions go too far, as well
as those who think they dont nearly
go far enough.
While we cannot stop every sense-
less act of gun violence, surely we
can strengthen our laws to limit such
tragedies in the future. We can no
longer simply accept the fact that our
country stands alone amongst the
industrialized world in terms of gun
violence and mass shootings. It is
incumbent upon all of us to deter-
mine how to end this ongoing cycle
of violence and tragedy.

Stopping the cycle of violence
Guest perspective
By Maxine Terner
T
he Draper University plan to
take over the Benjamin
Franklin Hotel and former
Collective Building is rushing for-
ward while San Mateo residents are
preoccupied with holiday activities.
The longtime retail tenants in the
Collective Building are gone. Rent-
a-desk ofce space is proposed to
replace them. These changes could
have major impacts on trafc, park-
ing, sales taxes and the many retail
shops that residents depend on. In its
Dec. 12 editorial, the Daily Journal
correctly noted that before the city
sacrices its own long-standing poli-
cies and vision for our downtown it
must ensure that the changes will
bring something of signicant value
to the community.
The proposal for the Benjamin
Franklin Hotel appears to meet that
threshold in that a long-vacant his-
toric landmark will once again be
lled with life. Additionally, the pro-
posed exterior landscape improve-
ments to the walk-through alley
between Third and Fourth avenues
will benet all downtown pedestri-
ans as well as students. But lets not
forget that Draper University is an
experimental concept in keeping
with Tim Drapers background as a
venture capitalist investing in
many ideas that fail before one suc-
ceeds. Even with community sup-
port, Draper
University does
not yet have a
track record that
can be relied
upon.
Unlike the
risk-taking
model of venture
capitalism, the
model for a successful community is
stability. Our downtown is not a
startup. In fact, startups are attracted
to downtown San Mateo because it
has stood the test of time and offers
the variety of activities that those of
us who live here value too.
Unfortunately, the proposal for the
Collective Building falls far short of
adding value to our community. In
place of retail, a trendy concept for
ofce space is proposed requiring a
major change to existing city poli-
cies that require retail uses along the
ground oor of key downtown
streets. The type of peer-to-peer
workspace proposed is more typical-
ly located in underutilized fringe
areas, not in prime downtowns.
Once a precedent is set of converting
retail space to ofce, every other
property owner can expect to do the
same.
The required retail policies in the
San Mateo General Plan are the
result of many years of community
involvement. Retail means that the
public can enter a store, interact with
salespeople and purchase a product.
This public interaction is vital to the
interesting and vibrant street life that
residents continually say they value.
A strong retail sector is also vital
to the citys tax base and budget. A
recent Downtown San Mateo Market
Analysis Update noted that convert-
ing an average retail property of
5,000 square feet (50 feet by 100
feet) to ofce would require 288
ofce employees to generate an
equivalent amount of sales tax as a
retail store. The conclusion was that
it is important to the tax base to
maintain ground oor retail. That
study also noted that downtown is
well positioned for strong economic
growth over the next several years.
The ofce workers proposed for the
Collective Building would not
replace the sales tax value of just
one of the retail stores that have
been vacated.
The most disruptive proposal
involves the removal of the ground
oor of the former Jud Green store
on the east end of the Collective
Building to make a two-story space
from the basement. This so-called
multi-purpose event space is pre-
sumably necessary to provide an
area for student lectures and hanging
out. When and if it will ever be
available to the general public has
not been dened nor ensured.
Why destroy a big hunk of an
existing building for an experimental
project that may or may not succeed
when a more measured reuse can
both meet the owners needs and
comply with community standards?
Keep the two end sections of the
Collective Building that formerly
housed Jud Green and Xcel Salon
for retail. Take advantage of the
recent revisions to retail policies that
allow ofce uses behind the retail
shops. That space along with the
large central section of the
Collective Building should easily
meet the stated needs of the universi-
ty for lectures and exible transition
startup space for graduates. Keep the
display window and pop-up retail
concepts as mitigation for the loss of
retail in the main Collective space.
All the buzz words about entrepre-
neurial, peer-to-peer workspace do
not change the fact that the current
proposal is for ofce space unrelated
to Draper University. Project sup-
porters stress that change is good ...
changing our downtown into an
ofce park maybe not so good!
The Planning Commission public
hearing is 7:30 p.m., Jan. 8 in the
City Council Chambers at City Hall,
330 W. 20th Ave., San Mateo.

NEW YORK The stock market
ended higher Thursday after ipping
between small gains and losses through-
out the morning. Uncertainty about the
scal cliff, just days away, was top of
mind for many traders.
The Republican-controlled House
pushed ahead with a bill aimed at avert-
ing the fiscal cliff, but President
Barack Obama has threatened to veto it
and Democratic leaders in the Senate
vowed to let it die.
Many traders now expect that the
Republicans and Democrats wont reach
an agreement before Christmas. The
political haggling kept markets muted,
and trading volume was low.
Every time someone makes a speech,
you get another move in the market,
said Ben Fischer, founder and managing
director of NFJ Investment Group in
Dallas. Everyones just tracking it on a
very short-term basis.
The Dow Jones industrial average fell
as much as 36 points before ending the
day higher, rising 59.75 points to close at
13,311.72. Other indexes followed simi-
lar patterns. The Standard & Poors 500
rose 7.88 to 1,443.69. The Nasdaq com-
posite index rose 6.02 to 3,050.39.
In Washington, the Republicans
offered in their Plan B to raise taxes on
the wealthy, but Democrats complained
that it would not address the steep budg-
et cuts that are automatically set to occur
for military and domestic agencies.
If the Republicans and Democrats
dont work out a compromise before the
end of the month, the U.S. could go over
the scal cliff, a reference to big tax
increases and government spending cuts
that would automatically kick in if no
budget deal is in place. Some economists
fear that would push the U.S. back into
recession.
But even a successful compromise is
no guarantee that the market will soar.
The market already assumes that a budg-
et compromise will be reached, Fischer
and others said, evidenced by its more-
or-less steady increase since mid-
November.
A compromise doesnt make every-
thing better, said Tim Biggam, market
strategist with the brokerage
TradingBlock in Chicago. It just stops
things from getting worse.
Biggam predicted that the economys
growth next year will remain anemic.
Problems that the headlines over budg-
et impasse have pushed out of the pub-
lic consciousness, like the European
debt crisis, still need to be resolved, he
said.

NEW YORK The brother of
imprisoned nancier Bernard Madoff
was sentenced Thursday to 10 years in
prison for crimes committed in the shad-
ow of his notorious sibling by a judge
who said she disbelieved his claims that
he did not know about the epic fraud.
Peter Madoff, 67, had agreed when he
pleaded guilty in June to serve the max-
imum sentence allowable to the charges
of conspiracy and falsifying the books
and records of an investment adviser. He
follows to prison his 74-year-old broth-
er, who is serving a 150-year sentence
after admitting he created a fraud so
large decades ago that thousands of peo-
ple lost $20 billion.
U.S. District Judge Laura Taylor
Swain urged Peter Madoff to tell the
truth even now about what he knows
about the fraud that cost thousands of
investors their original $20 billion
investment.
The judge said Peter Madoff, wearing
a well-tailored charcoal suit, was
frankly not believable when he
claimed at his plea that he only learned
of the fraud when his brother revealed it
to him just before he surrendered to
authorities.
Peter Madoff spoke only briey, say-
ing: I am deeply ashamed of my con-
duct and have tried to atone by pleading
guilty and have agreed to forfeit all of
my present and future assets.
He added: I am profoundly sorry that
my failures let many people down,
including my loved ones.
Two investors, among 40 who wrote
victim impact statements, spoke during
the proceeding, each describing the
nancial ruins of their extended family.
Investor Michael T. De Vita, 62, also
called for truth, saying he believed it to
be physically impossible for a single
person to carry out such a gargantuan
task all by himself.
De Vita said investors have waited
four years for others to accept responsi-
bility for this massive crime. We are still
waiting for that today.
All of this was preventable if only
one person was willing to do the right
thing and stop this in its tracks years
ago. Peter Madoff could have been that
person, he said.
Amy Luria Nissenbaum, 49, choking
up at times, also complained that Peter
Madoff had chosen even after his plea to
turn a blind eye to his brothers fraud,
saying her home was in foreclosure and
some days she struggles to clothe and
feed my children.
Nissenbaum said Peter Madoff was
part of his brothers fraud for more than
30 years and he should serve the same
amount of time in prison.
When Swain announced that Peter
Madoff will not have to report to prison
until Feb. 6, Nissenbaum laughed out
loud bitterly. The delay in reporting to
prison will let Peter Madoff attend his
granddaughters Bat Mitzvah on Jan. 19.
Madoffs brother gets 10-year sentence
By Michael Gormley
ALBANY, N.Y. From California to
New York, teacher and public-worker
retirement funds are reconsidering their
investments in gun makers and con-
fronting an uncomfortable fact: Their
pensions have supported the manufac-
ture of deadly weapons, in some cases
the same type of gun used in the
Connecticut school shooting.
For years, the gun industry has been a
reliable investment, attracting tens of
millions of dollars from some of the
nations largest retirement funds. The
rearms business has been strong, driven
by relaxed laws for carrying concealed
handguns and by buyers who feared that
tighter gun restrictions were more likely
under President Obama.
But after the bloodbath in
Connecticut, the practice is under review
in at least four states, including two of
the most populous, California and New
York.
Although the amount of money
involved is relatively small compared
with the size of the pension funds, it has
raised questions about the social respon-
sibilities of huge retirement systems that
invest on behalf of millions of American
workers.
Its a bad investment to put money
behind companies that put military-
grade weapons on our streets and refuse
to take responsibility for the outcome,
said New York City Public Advocate Bill
de Blasio. We should not be giving cap-
ital to an industry that is responsible for
the deaths of thousands of Americans
each year ... its our moral responsibili-
ty.
New York state Comptroller Thomas
DiNapoli, who has sometimes wielded
the states $150.1 billion pension fund to
urge companies to change their prac-
tices, is now reviewing nearly $12 mil-
lion invested in firearms companies,
which have seen their stocks plummet
since the attack.
Facebook tests charging
to route messages to inbox
SAN FRANCISCO Facebook says
it is testing a service that will charge
users $1 to guarantee that messages
they send to people they are not con-
nected to arrive in users inboxes, rather
than in an often-ignored folder called
other.
The other folder is where Facebook
routes messages it deems less relevant.
Not quite spam, these include messages
from people you most likely dont
know, based on Facebooks reading of
your social connections. Many users
ignore this folder.
Now, users will be able to pay $1 to
route their messages to non-friends.
Facebook said Thursday that it is test-
ing the service with a small percentage
of individuals not businesses in
the U.S.

Bombers hit a home run with toy drive
By Julio Lara
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
The California Bombers began
this holiday season by swinging for
the fences.
And in the process, the youth
softball team from San Mateo hit
home runs for children all over the
Bay Area.
Approximately 220 kids will have
a gift under their Christmas tree
next week due to the efforts of Rich
Rodriguez and the championship-
winning softball squad who as
recently as last summer, was taking
home tournament titles like the
Rebel Classic and sending players
to All-American teams.
The success on the softball eld
aside, 2012 will be known as the
year the Bombers triumph extended
past the diamond.
It all begins with the Rodriguez
family, who for the last 10 years,
has donated toys to local charities.
Its just gotten bigger and big-
ger, Rodriguez said. I got a better
job, got more money and I said Im
going to help more people. Its gone
from 10 toys, to 30 toys, to 40 toys.
Rodriguez said the light bulb for
this holiday season really went off
when the Bombers chose to partici-
pate in the Toys for Tots tournament
where the organizers would be
collecting toy donations prior to the
start of softball play.
Rodriguez said he didnt have to
tell his girls much.
They responded huge,
Rodriguez said. Everyone brought
toys and everyone wanted to get
involved. It was crazy. I didnt think
it would be this big of an event.
It was a pretty good year. A lot of
people felt the need to donate. We
just got a lot of toys. I was sur-
prised. Ive never got this many.
The total amount the Bombers
trucked over to the Toys for Tots
tournament was 150.
When the reghters looked at
the toys, they were like, We dont
have enough barrels to put these
toys in. We had four or ve girls
take the toys to the rehouse. It was
a good thing.
The Bombers werent done there.
After donating the 150 toys, they
collected another 70 that they
promptly donated to a YMCA in
San Francisco.
The other teams were like,
Wow. You guys really outdid your-
selves, Rodriguez said. My
daughter loves it. Shes nine years
old, so shes at the point when she
sees toys she says, Dad, look at

OAKLAND The moment Mark
Jackson saw Stephen Curry return to
the court in September for the rst time
since the point guards most recent right
ankle surgery, he had an epiphany.
Not the kind that comes to Jackson
when he preaches from the pulpit for
his ministry. Nor the sort he shouts from
the sideline as the Golden State
Warriors coach.
Instead, he just
kept quiet and
smiled about the
possibilities.
You just saw
like, Man, thats
what Im talking
about. I can really
be a better coach
this year, Jackson
said, chuckling.
The truth in Jacksons joke, as even
he admits, is that nobody is questioning
his coaching abilities now in large part
because nobody is questioning Currys
health.
The Warriors (17-9) are off to their
best start since the 1991-92 season,
when the team began 21-8 behind Tim
Hardaway and Chris Mullin. Golden
State enters Friday nights game against
Currys hometown Charlotte Bobcats
playing like a playoff-bound team in the
Western Conference.
Thats no small feat for a franchise
that has missed the postseason 17 of the
last 18 years. Neither is it a mild mile-
stone in Currys comeback, not after his
troubled right ankle sidelined him for
most of the last year and had some won-
dering whether he could ever be the
point guard who looked so promising in
his rst two seasons.
Missing games and not having com-
plete condence that my ankle would
hold up was tough, Curry said. To be
at this point right now playing and help-
ing the team win, it denitely feels great
to just be able to focus on games.
Warriors general manager Bob
Myers believes Currys breakthrough
this season came at Dallas on Nov. 19.
Curry made only 4 of 12 shots
through three quarters and rolled his
right ankle early in the fourth before he
picked it up offensively, scoring 14 of
Golden States last 17 points in regula-
tion. Curry added six points in overtime
to lift the Warriors to a 105-101 win.

SANTA CLARA Dashon Goldson has a
stack of manila envelopes in his locker, ling
away the paperwork every time the NFL has
ned the San Francisco 49ers safety.
While he has heard from the league ofce
more than a dozen times in his six-year career,
the letters often had little to do with his hard-
hitting ways until this season.
Goldson estimates he has been ned $70,000
for socks, pants and other uniform violations
about $5,000 for each offense. He said his latest
letter from the NFL, however, notied him of a
$21,000 ne for an illegal hit Sunday night on
Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez, which
Goldson plans to appeal.
All the crackdowns have earned the 49ers
franchise-tagged player a new league label:
multiple offender. The Hawk, as teammates call
Goldson for swooping in for shots on receivers,
said the nes still wont change the way he
plays when the 49ers (10-3-1) face the
Seahawks (9-5) on Sunday night in Seattle with
a chance to clinch the NFC West title.

ALAMEDA After spending most of the
season on the bench, Terrelle Pryor has been
playing a key role this week for the Oakland
Raiders by impersonating Cam Newton in
practice.
Pryor could have an even higher-prole role
come game time Sunday against the Carolina
Panthers. Offensive coordinator Greg Knapp
says Pryor will get on the eld in certain spe-
cialty packages for the Raiders (4-10).
Pryor made his season debut last week,
handing the ball off twice and throwing one
incomplete pass as the coaching staff wanted
to give him an entire series. The next step is
using him in specic situations that can take
advantage of his athleticism at quarterback.
Youll see him a little
bit on third downs, youll
see him maybe in the red
zone, try to create a differ-
ent look for the defense to
contend with, Knapp said.
It wont be so much the
structure of last week,
where he had a series,
which we thought was fair
to him. ... Were going to
try to use some of his athletic ability this
week.
With more and more teams turning to dual-
threat quarterbacks like Newton, Washingtons
Robert Grifn III or San Franciscos Colin
Kaepernick, Pryors athleticism has been tanta-
lizing for Raiders fans looking for any kind of
bright spot to a disappointing season.
As a star at Ohio State, Pryor showed many
of the same skills those other young quarter-
backs are displaying. He just wants the oppor-
tunity to prove he can do what theyre doing in
the NFL.
Right now I dont want to compare myself
to Kaepernick or Cam or any of those guys
because them guys and Grifn have proved
it, he said. I havent proved anything. I
cant really say Id be like them. I dont know
what Im going to be like because I havent
even played yet.
Pryor is using those skills right now on the
scout team to help the Raiders prepare for
Newton. Oakland has struggled most of the
season defensively and now has to deal with
a new kind of challenge. A running quarter-
back like Newton can beat teams with his
arm, as a scrambler or on designed runs out
of the read-option.
He creates a lot of other issues that you
have to worry about, coach Dennis Allen said.
You have to worry about him in the passing
game just scrambling around and keeping the
play alive. Obviously, they use him in a lot of
different ways in the running game also. He
presents some unique challenges.
In a league with more and more running
threats at quarterback, Newton still is one of
the most dangerous. He leads Carolina with
647 yards rushing and is averaging 6 yards per
carry trailing only Grifn for most by a
quarterback.
He leads all quarterbacks with seven touch-
downs rushing more than twice as many as
Oaklands team total of three and has
rushed for 1,353 yards and 21 touchdowns in
two seasons in the NFL.

ter of intent until April 17,
but he made his intentions
clear with one highly
anticipated oral commit-
ment.
Michigan State, Florida,
Stanford and Brigham
Young also made his top
ve, but he said it really
came down to three schools in the end, with
the Gators and Spartans right there with the
Blue Devils.
In the end, he chose to play for Mike
Krzyzewski for at least a year before making
what many believe will ultimately be a jump
to the NBA.
Duke is always going to be a team in the
tournament, he said. You cant go wrong at
the program and most importantly, the long-
term investment. I feel like if I go there, I can
get a good degree. I can also stay close to
home where its easily accessible to my par-
ents, my family. Its not too far away. Coach
K, thats one of the best coaches ever, and I
wanted to be able to experience the things that
he has next year.
Parker said he might play two or three sea-
sons in college. Either way, he vowed to get a
degree. He also said he didnt decide on a
school until about 1 p.m. Central, and he
apparently kept his parents in the dark until he
made his announcement.
His mom, Lola, said Jabari whispered his
decision to her and her husband Sonny as they
were walking into the gym. A few minutes
later, he pulled out a Duke T-shirt, drawing a
standing ovation from the crowd packing the
bleachers behind the podium.
Parker committed to join a program next
season will lose two key frontcourt players
seniors Mason Plumlee and Ryan Kelly
from a team that earlier this week rose to No.
1 for the rst time since February 2011.
Parker gures to t right in on a talented
group of players that will include Quinn
Cook, whos expected to be in his second year
as the starting point guard, and returns pure
shooter Andre Dawkins, whos expected back
after redshirting this season.
At 6-foot-8 and with the ability to nail
jumpers from just about any spot when hes
not throwing down ferocious dunks, its easy
to see why just about every major program
was interested in him.
Parker just might be the greatest prospect to
come out of Simeon, and thats saying some-
thing considering Derrick Rose played there.
All he did was go on to become the MVP with
the hometown Bulls.
As for Parker, his credentials sure are
impressive.
He received the Gatorade Boys Basketball
Player of the Year award after leading Simeon
to its third straight state championship while
averaging 19.5 points and 8.9 rebounds as a
junior.
His father played six seasons with the
Golden State Warriors in the NBA after star-
ring at Chicagos Farragut Career Academy.

European Champions League, a matchup that
sends Cristiano Ronaldo back to the stadium
where he made his reputation and Jose
Mourinho to the club many believe he wants to

Thursdays draw also paired favorite
Barcelona and Lionel Messi against seven-time
winner AC Milan.
Arsenal will face Bayern Munich, which lost
to Chelsea in last season nal, and high-spend-

Other pairings were Glasgow Celtic-Juventus,
Shakhtar Donetsk- Borussia Dortmund, Porto-
Malaga, and Galatasaray-Schalke.
First-leg matches are from Feb. 12-20, with
return legs of the total-goals series from March
5-13.
Madrid, a nine-time champion, hosts three-
time winner United on Feb. 13, with the second
leg at Old Trafford on March 5. Mourinho faces
off against United manager Alex Ferguson and
Ronaldo against Wayne Rooney.
Its a great opportunity for our fans to see
Cristiano again and also for me to meet up with
Jose again, Ferguson said in comments posted
on the clubs ofcial website.
The coaches met in Manchester this month,
ahead of Madrids group match against English
champion City, adding to speculation that
Mourinho covets the United job.
Mourinho is remembered for his amboyant
victory sprint down the sideline at Old Trafford
when
his Porto team eliminated United in the sec-

By Paul Newberry
Now that hes away from the pool, Michael
Phelps can reect really reect on what
he accomplished.
Pretty amazing stuff.
Its kind of nuts to think about everything
Ive gone through, Phelps said. Ive nally
had time to myself, to sit back and say, ... that
really happened? Its kind of shocking at
times.
Not that his career needed a capper, but
Phelps added one more honor to his stagger-
ing list of accomplishments Thursday The
Associated Press male athlete of the year.
Phelps edged out LeBron James to win the
award for the second time, not only a tting
payoff for another brilliant Olympics (four
gold medals and two silvers in swimming at
the London Games) but recognition for one of
the greatest careers in any sport.
Phelps nished with 40 votes in balloting
by U.S. editors and broadcasters, while James
was next with 37. Track star Usain Bolt, who
won three gold medals in London, was third
with 23.
Carl Lewis is the only other Olympic-relat-
ed star to be named AP male athlete of the
year more than once, taking the award for his
track and eld exploits in 1983 and 84. The
only men honored more than twice are golfs
Tiger Woods and cyclist Lance Armstrong
(four times each), and basketballs Michael
Jordan (three times).
Obviously, its a big accomplishment,
Phelps said. Theres so many amazing male
athletes all over the world and all over our
country. To be able to win this is something
that just sort of tops off my career.
Phelps retired at age 27 as soon as he n-
ished his nal race in London, having won
more gold medals (18) and overall medals
(22) than any other Olympian.
No one else is even close.
Thats what I wanted to do, Phelps said.
Now that its over, its something I can look
back on and say, That was a pretty amazing
ride.
The current ride isnt so bad either.
Set for life nancially, he has turned his
erce competitive drive to golf, working on
his links game with renowned coach Hank
Haney as part of a television series on the
Golf Channel. In fact, after being informed of
winning the AP award, Phelps called in from
the famed El Dorado Golf & Beach Club in
Los Cabos, Mexico, where he was heading
out with Haney to play a few more holes
before nightfall.
I cant really complain, Phelps quipped
over the phone.
Certainly, he has no complaints about his
swimming career, which helped turn a sport
that most Americans only paid attention to
every four years into more of a mainstream
pursuit.
More kids took up swimming. More adver-
tisers jumped on board. More viewers tuned
in to watch.
While swimming is unlikely to ever match
the appeal of football or baseball, it has
carved out a nice little niche for itself amid all
the other athletic options in the United States
largely due to Phelps amazing accom-
plishments and aw-shucks appeal.

these toys. Theyre 2 for $10. Lets get some.
I tell my daughter, when Im gone, you do it.
Its like a legacy.
The team responded well, but Rodriguez
pointed out that so did the community.
Its gotten a lot better, said Rodriguez, an
employee of San Franciscos MUNI. Now,
they ask you, What are you doing? Oh, were
going to go buy toys, and they kick in a little
here, a little there. Pretty soon, you have a sig-
nicant amount of money. No one really ques-
tion things.
And neither did Rodriguez when donating
of his time to actually go out and buy the toys
from the monetary donations everything
from board games to Barbie dolls to Hot
Wheels. I just looked for the good deals, he
said.
Rest assured, Rodriguez said he will contin-
ue to donate toys and up the ante a little more
each year mentioning that aside from the
children, hes trying to organize a Bombers
visit to local veterans hospitals in 2013.
Thats our goal, he said. Im going big
next year to help out some kids and veterans
that really need it.

Everybody kind of was thinking, Here we
go again, Myers said. He kind of had this
look, it was like a boxer who takes a punch and
starts laughing. He went the other with it and
came out guns blazing and performed excep-
tionally well and won us the game, really. He
took over the game. That, to me, was a pivotal
point in our season. Not only for his leadership
ability but for the rest of the players on the team
to see how talented he was, when needed to be
the man, he could do it.
Myers took the risk of signing Curry to a $44
million, four-year contract extension through the
2016-17 season hours before the season opener
at Phoenix. Curry had even sat out the nal two
exhibitions as a precaution because of ankle
issues.
It was the nal day Golden State could sign
Curry to an extension or he would become a
restricted free agent next summer. While the risk
of injury is no different now than it was then,
Currys condence has helped put everybody
around him at ease.
Every day that goes by and nothing tran-
spires, I feel better, Myers said.
Curry is averaging career-highs of 19.9 points
and 6.3 assists per game. He has started all 26
contests and is making a strong case, along with
co-captain David Lee, to be Golden States rst
All-Star since Latrell Sprewell in 1997.
All this after Curry averaged career lows of
14.7 points, 5.3 assists and 3.4 rebounds while
missing 40 games during last seasons lockout-
shortened 66-game schedule, repeatedly sprain-
ing, tweaking or rolling his right ankle.
Curry rehabbed in Charlotte for weeks.
Finally, in April, he had what the team called an
exploratory procedure that revealed a stable
ankle with no structural damage and consisted
of cleaning out loose debris and scar tissue. The
former Davidson star also had surgery to repair
a tendon in his ankle in the summer of 2011 and
often had problems even while playing that next
season.
Former Warriors head coach and longtime
assistant Keith Smart, in his second season at the
helm in Sacramento, shakes his head when he
recalls Currys ankle issues.
It was frustrating for him. It was frustrating
for us, because he wanted to try every single
time. I mean, the guy would walk across the
oor and roll his ankle, Smart said. Thats how
loose that thing was. And he would try to still
practice through it. You would tell him, Dont
do it. You would do all the things you could to
keep him off the oor, but he wanted to do it. He
wanted to play. Hes not one of those guys who
have earned his position in the NBA earned
the great salary now and feels that, Hey, I
can just wait and heal up and let this thing do its
own thing. That guy wanted to play. He loves
basketball.
WARRIORS
the timespan I have as a football player when
Im on the football eld to dictate whats a clean
and whats a not-so-clean hit, Goldson said.
Im not a dirty player. And thats just that.
Goldson, playing on a one-year contract of
$6.2 million, has had multiple nes for his play.
Among them:
$7,875 for a late hit on sliding Rams quar-
terback Sam Bradford on Dec. 2.
$7,875 for taunting unsportsmanlike con-
duct after tackling Seattle running back
Marshawn Lynch in October.
$25,000 for punching Arizona receiver
Early Doucet in November 2011 (Doucet was
ned $10,000 for unnecessary roughness for
striking Goldson in the helmet area).
$5,000 for a late hit on Raiders receiver
Louis Murphy in October 2010.
In his latest offense, ofcials whistled
Goldson for a 15-yard unsportsmanlike conduct
penalty after he barreled into Hernandez as the
tight end was still in the air and turning to make
a catch in the third quarter of San Franciscos
41-34 victory in Foxborough. Goldson put his
feet together, spread his arms out wide and
looked to the sky in a celebration that is becom-
ing routine in San Franciscos secondary.
Niners defensive coordinator Vic Fangio dis-
agreed with the call, but he understands that its
part of the NFLs safety-rst approach to protect
defenseless receivers.
He wrapped the guy up, hit him right here in
the chest area, Fangio said. I think whats hap-
pened, if it looks bad, the league has told of-
cials to err on the side of caution.
The violent collisions are a staple of San
Franciscos defense.
Goldson believes the style is a big reason why
the 49ers are tied with the Seahawks for the best
scoring defense in the league, allowing only
15.6 points per game. On the next play against
the Patriots, for instance, Hernandez looked
timid and had a pass from Tom Brady pop off
his hands that Aldon Smith scooped up for an
interception.
Hits like that get wide receivers the short
hands, Goldson said. Its been proven
throughout this league for years, and its been
proven since me and Donte (Whitner) have been
back there making hits and our whole defense.
Goldson has three interceptions this season
after six last year he had ve in his four sea-
sons combined. Others also have taken notice.
Seahawks coach Pete Carroll praised the
physicality of San Franciscos secondary this
week. Looking back at the 49ers 13-6 victory
over Seattle at Candlestick Park in Week 7,
Carroll said rookie quarterback Russell Wilson
will have to be aware of Goldson and Whitner if
they want a different result the second time
around.
Their safeties are ridiculous, Carroll said.
The only concern Goldson has about his ris-
ing reputation is that he could face a possible
suspension if hes agged for enough hits.
While he wants players to be intimidated by his
presence, he said hes not trying to hurt anybody
and practices proper techniques. He also doesnt
want to be known as the leagues hardest hitter.

U.S. teen Mikaela Shiffrin
earns first World Cup slalom win
ARE, Sweden Mikaela Shiffrin showed
that the American ski team can live without
Lindsey Vonn, at least for a little while.
In the rst World Cup race since Vonn said
she was taking a break from the circuit, the 17-
year-old Shiffrin picked up the slack quite nice-
ly. She won a night slalom, edging Swedens
Frida Hansdotter for her rst World Cup victo-
ry.
Shiffrin has been touted as the next American
ski star, and she performed like one under the
oodlights on Ares Olympia course. An out-
standing second run gave her a combined time
of 1 minute, 45.36 seconds.
Shiffrin was second after the rst run and was
then challenged by overall World Cup leader
Tina Maze, who had a blazing second run to
take a large lead just before the American was
to ski. But Shiffrin kept her composure in a run
that was even faster, setting a time that rst-run
leader Hansdotter couldnt match.

Three-time Olympian Suzy Favor
Hamilton says she coped with
depression and a troubled marriage
by turning to a
life of prostitu-
tion.
In a series of
posts to her
Twitter account,
Favor Hamilton
acknowledged
working as an
escort following
a report
Thursday on The
Smoking Gun
website about her double life.
I do not expect people to under-
stand, Favor Hamilton tweeted. But
the reasons for doing this made sense
to me at the time and were very much
related to depression.
The Smoking Gun said the 44-
year-old athlete has been working for
the last year for a Las Vegas escort
service that booked her for dates
there, as well as in Los Angeles,
Houston and Chicago. The website
said she charged $600 an hour for her
services.
One of the countrys best-ever mid-
dle-distance runners, Favor Hamilton
competed for the U.S. at the
Olympics in 1992, 1996 and 2000 but
did not win a medal. She won seven
U.S. national titles. She lives in
Madison, Wis., where, The Smoking
Gun reported, she and her husband,
Mark, live in a $600,000 home and
appear to be in no nancial distress
based on the websites review of
court and municipal records.
Favor Hamilton told the website
that only her husband was aware of
her escort work, but that, He tried,
he tried to get me to stop. He wasnt
supportive of this at all.

Mitsubishi sedan features all-wheel drive
By Ann M. Job
Often overshadowed by its showier Lancer
Evolution rally car sibling, the Mitsubishi
Lancer sedan is a nimble-handling, decently
powered and competitive compact four door
in its own right.
In fact, the 2013 Lancer SE, which many
car shoppers dont realize comes standard
with all-wheel drive, is a worthy contender in
snowy locations and is the second lowest-
priced all-wheel drive sedan in the U.S. mar-
ket, after the Subaru Impreza.
With a starting retail price of $21,090, this
all-wheel drive Lancer with standard continu-
ously variable transmission (CVT) is priced
just $1,425 more than a comparable and simi-
larly sized 2013 Impreza sedan, which starts
at $19,665 with CVT.
And, buyers of the Lancer SE AWC for
Mitsubishis all-wheel control moniker get
a larger four-cylinder engine with 20 more
horsepower and 22 more foot-pounds of
torque than the Impreza.
Other pluses: The 2013 Lancer SE comes
standard with heated seats and heated outside
mirrors, good-sized, 16-inch wheels and tires,
seven air bags, including one for the drivers
knee, and outside door handles and mirror
covers that match body paint and are not
cheap-looking black plastic.
One downside: The Lancer SEs 168-horse-
power, naturally aspirated four cylinder does-
nt provide the higher fuel mileage that the
148-horsepower Subaru Impreza sedan does.
But a test Lancer SE easily got a bit more
than the 25-miles-per-gallon average in com-
bined city/highway travel that the federal gov-
ernment estimates for this model.

DETROIT The Toyota Camry, the best-
selling car in the U.S., performed poorly this
year in a new crash test and failed to get the
best safety rating from an insurance industry
group.
The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety
gave the Camry a Poor rating on a test that
measures how well people are protected when
the front corner of a car hits another car or an
object.
The Camry still did well on the institutes
other four tests and earned a Top Safety
Pick designation. But it failed to get a Top
Safety Pick-Plus rating because of the bad
performance on the new small overlap test
of corner crashes.
Ten moderately priced midsize cars got the
institutes highest rating. They include the
Honda Accord, Chrysler 200, Dodge Avenger,
Ford Fusion, Kia Optima, Nissan Altima,
Subaru Legacy and Outback, Suzuki Kashai
and the Volkswagen Passat.
Toyotas Prius v gas-electric hybrid wagon
also performed poorly on the new test, but
still earned a Top Safety Pick designation.
Toyotas engineers have a lot of work to do
to match the performance of their competi-
tors, IIHS President Adrian Lund said in a
statement Thursday.
Toyota said in a statement that IIHS has
raised the bar with the new test, exceeding
U.S. government requirements. But the com-
pany said it will respond to the challenge.
We are evaluating the new test protocols and
can say that there will not be one single solu-
tion to achieve greater crash performance in
this area, the statement said.
Through November, Toyota has sold more
than 373,000 Camrys in the U.S. It is the top-
selling car in the U.S. almost every year.
Both the Prius v and Camry performed well
in moderate front-end crash tests, as well as
side impact, roof strength and rear impact
tests, the institute said.
Moderately priced midsize cars outper-
formed midsize luxury cars in the new test,
the institute said. The only midsize luxury
cars to earn a Top Safety Pick-Plus award
were the Acura TL and Volvo S60.
IIHS is a nonprot research group funded
by auto insurance companies. It develops
crash tests to cut deaths, injuries and property
damage losses from car and truck crashes.

Top competitors in the lower-priced,
compact sedan segment include cars that
come only as front-wheel drive models and
compete in price more directly with the
base, front-wheel drive, 148-horsepower,
2013 Lancer DE, which starts at $16,790
with manual transmission.
As an example, the front-wheel drive,
2013 Toyota Corolla with 132-horsepower
four cylinder has a starting manufacturers
suggested retail price, including destina-
tion charge, of $17,025 with manual trans-
mission. The 2013 Hyundai Elantra sedan
with manual transmission and 148-horse-
power four cylinder starts at $17,590.
Rally car enthusiasts know all about the
high-performance, turbocharged
Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution and its World
Rally Championships. The starting price
tag for the Evolution is $35,490.
But the plainer, affordable Lancer sedan
has trouble breaking through to American
buyers shopping lists because, in part, its
not as well known as other cars in the
small sedan segment.
Pictures of the 2013 Lancer dont do it
justice, either. In real life, the exterior is
stylishly upscale and unlike the more
bland-looking Corolla and Honda Civic.
Inside, however, the Lancer can seem ho-
hum, with plastics and other materials that
come off as inexpensive.
Knobs and buttons in the test car worked
fine but didnt provide the kind of quality
feel noticed in some other small cars.
The Lancer interior was straightforward
and unadorned in the test model, save for an
optional, colorful, multi-function display
that was liquid crystal.
In comparison, the interior of the 2013
Hyundai Elantra, with its sweeping dash-
board and well-placed accent pieces, looks
fashionable.
Still, its worth noting that even the base
2013 Lancer comes with standard remote
keyless entry, power windows and outside
mirrors, including a driver window with
one-touch up and down, as well as 140-watt
AM/FM audio system with CD and MP3
players and volume control that is automat-
ically adjusted as the cars speed increases.
The test cars optional, 710-watt
Rockford Fosgate audio system with a 10-
inch subwoofer fitted into the side of the
trunk had bass so deep it could shake the
Lancer and be felt in nearby cars.
The test Lancer SEs 2.4-liter, double over-
head cam, four-cylinder engine had good
power, and peak torque of 167 foot-pounds
came on at a good point 4,100 rpm.
The Lancer SE test car wasnt a sportster,
but it moved with verve in city traffic and
sought to get up to highway speed in short
order.
Engine noise was noticed at the higher
revs, and both road noise and sounds from
passing vehicles came into the passenger
compartment.
Notably, the CVT in the test car didnt
strangle the power and worked so compe-
tently, some drivers might not be aware its
not a regular automatic transmission.
The government rates the all-wheel drive,
2013 Lancer SE, which comes only with the
CVT, at 22 and 29 mpg in city and highway
travel, respectively.
This is lower than the 27/36-mpg rating
that the 2013 Impreza has with lower-pow-
ered engine and CVT. All Subarus come
standard with all-wheel drive.
Still, the somewhat stiff-riding Lancer
SE, with its well-controlled body motions
and confident handling through slaloms
and in mountain curves, impressively
clung to the road and was enjoyable to
drive.
Even in a heavy, unrelenting rainstorm,
the car moved purposefully and never lost
traction. All-wheel drive, which can be
switched on via a button in the center con-
sole, was a comforting feature.
Note the Lancers all-wheel drive also
can be manually set to direct up to 70 per-
cent of the available power to the electron-
ic control coupling that manages the rear
wheels.
Front- and rear-seat headroom is within
0.1 or 0.2 inch of that in the Impreza
sedan.
As in many compact sedans, three adults
sit closely in the back seat. The Lancer
SEs trunk space is measured at 12.3 cubic
feet, but with the subwoofer that was in the
test cars trunk, space shrunk to 11.8 cubic
feet.
The material lining the trunk was pretty
barebones stuff.
Besides the knee air bag that helps keep
the driver properly positioned behind the
steering wheel during a frontal crash, stan-
dard safety equipment includes antilock
brakes, electronic stability control and
traction control.
The Lancer earned four out of five stars
in overall crash tests by the federal govern-
ment, with across-the-board four-out-of-
five stars in frontal and side crash testing.

DETROIT General Motors is recalling
more than 145,000 pickup trucks because the
hoods can y open unexpectedly and block
the drivers vision.
The recall affects Chevrolet Colorado and
GMC Canyon midsize trucks from the 2010
through 2012 model years. Most of the trucks
were sold in North America.
The U.S. National Highway Trafc Safety
Administration says some of the trucks may
not have a secondary hood latch. If the main
latch isnt fastened, the hoods can open while
the trucks are in motion.
GM said Thursday that it doesnt know of
any crashes or injuries caused by the problem.
The automaker traced the problem to a parts
supplier after getting four reports of trucks
with missing secondary latches.
Owners will have the option of checking the
hoods for the secondary latch or taking it to a
dealer. If theres no secondary latch, GM will
replace the hoods free of charge.
The recall includes 118,800 trucks in the
U.S., 15,264 in Canada, 7,492 in Mexico and
just over 4,000 in other countries, GM said in
a statement. Owners are expected to get recall
notices in the mail starting next month.

As drummer in a forgotten New
Jersey band in the 1960s, David
Chase never got close never even
got close to close to making it in
music. Yet from a sound check of his
rock-infused HBO series The
Sopranos, its clear the music never
faded away.
So what better way for the TV rev-
olutionary to make his lm directing
debut than with a story thats all
about the music? Chases Not Fade
Away a somewhat autobiograph-
ical drama about a Jersey boy play-
ing drums in a 60s band and dream-
ing of stardom would be called a
promising rst feature from some
unknown filmmaker doing the
rounds at Sundance. Coming from a
Hollywood heavyweight whos spent
decades in the TV trenches, its a
hopeful sign, or maybe just wishful
thinking, that more of the quality that
has ed lm for television might
somehow be channeled back to the

JAMEEL PRIZE FINALISTS
ON DISPLAY AT CANTOR
ARTS CENTER AT STANFORD
UNIVERSITY. On view for the rst
time in the United States, The
Jameel Prize: Art Inspired by Islamic
Tradition at Stanford Universitys
Cantor Arts Center presents the work
of 10 artists selected as nalists for
the prestigious Jameel Prize, an
international award bestowed by the
Victoria and Albert Museum in
London and sponsored by Abdul
Latif Jameel Community Initiatives.
The Jameel Prize, awarded for
contemporary art and design inspired
by Islamic tradition, encourages the
exploration of long-established prac-
tices of Islamic art, craft and design
within a contemporary framework.
The resulting exhibition demon-
strates that artists can use these tradi-
tions in ways that are vividly relevant
to the contemporary world and fos-
ters a wider debate about Islamic cul-
ture and its role today.
The Prize is open to all and not
restricted to Muslims or those from
the Islamic world. Entry is by nomi-
nation and for the 2011 Jameel Prize
the names of almost 200 artists and
designers were put forward from
countries as diverse as the United
States, Spain, Nigeria, Egypt and
Pakistan. From this list, 10 nalists
were selected, with one chosen as a
winner for a prize of 25,000 British
pounds, or approximately $35,800.
Rachid Korachi won the Jameel
Prize 2011 for his series of embroi-
dered cloth banners entitled Les
Maitres invisibles (The Invisible
Masters), made in 2008. Korachi
uses Arabic calligraphy and symbols
and ciphers from a range of other
languages and cultures to explore the
lives and legacies of the 14 great
mystics of Islam. These masters
include great Muslim thinkers and
poets such as Rumi and EI Arabi,
whose teachings have spread even to
the West.
Connie Wolf, Cantor Arts Center
John and Jill Freidenrich Director,
said, We are pleased to offer our
visitors this exciting exhibition for its
rst U.S. viewing. These beautiful
contemporary artworks are inspired
by a long Islamic tradition, and it is
wonderful that we can have the
works on view at the Cantor, where
we are dedicated to presenting
important and engaging art from
around the world. We are delighted
to be able to introduce our visitors to
the works of 10 artists who are show-
ing their work for the very rst time
in the Bay Area.
The nalists are culturally diverse,
representing many countries. The
youngest artist, Noor Ali Chagani,
was born in Pakistan and lives in
Lahore. Monir Shahroudy
Farmanfarmaian, who has works in
the collection of the Metropolitan
Museum of Art, New York, was born
in Iran but spent many years in the
United States; she currently lives in
Tehran. Bita Ghezelayagh, born in
Italy, now lives in London and
Tehran. Babak Golkar, born in the
United States, now lives in Canada.
Hayv Kahraman, born in Iraq, now
lives in the San Francisco Bay Area.
Rachid Korachi, born in Algeria,
now lives in Tunisia and France.
Hazem EI Mestikawy, born in Egypt,
lives in Egypt and Austria. Hadieh
Shae, born in Iran, lives in the
United States. Soody Shari, born in
Iran, lives in the United States.
The exhibition is organized by the
Victoria and Albert Museum in
London in partnership with the
Abdul Latif Jameel Community
Initiatives with the support of Cantor
Arts Center Members and the Sohaib
and Sara Abbasi Program in Islamic
Studies at Stanford University. The
program is the central forum for
interdisciplinary research and teach-
ing in Islamic Studies at Stanford
University and facilitates and pro-
motes the study of Islamic cultures
and societies, including the history of
Islam from its beginnings to the 21
century, systematic study of Islamic
social contexts, the religion of Islam
in all its internal complexity, and the
diversity of human experience as
seen in literature and the arts origi-
nating in societies affected by
Islamic civilizations.
Related events include a Spotlight
Talk by a graduate student on Friday,
Jan. 11 at 2 p.m. and an Artists Talk
by Rachid Korachi on Thursday,
Jan. 24 at 5:30 p.m. On Thursday,
Feb. 7, beginning at 5:30 p.m., a
panel of experts engage in scholarly
debate about contemporary Islamic
art. The programs are open to the

smart and satisfying piece of nostalgia. Yet its
more than just a little acid trip down memory
lane. Chase writes intimately and authorita-
tively about a time and place and attitude he
lived himself, and does it with such energy
and affection that we wish we were back at the
beginning ourselves, when rock n roll grew
up from mere pop music to an art and lifestyle
all its own.
Like The Sopranos, much of the drama
arises out of generational conict, in this case
rebellious son Douglas (John Magaro) and his
pragmatic, my-way-or-the-highway dad
(Sopranos star James Gandolni). As count-
less teens before and since, Douglas is infect-
ed by music chiey, the bluesy, rootsy rock
of the early Rolling Stones and joins a
band with some New Jersey pals who are sim-
ilarly caught up in the British invasion of the
early and mid 60s.
From there we get not the overdone tale of
a group on the rise and struggling with the pit-
falls of fame and success. Instead, we get the
genuine and more illuminating story of all
those losers who didnt make it. Who maybe
didnt put in the time, maybe didnt have the
talent, maybe didnt pursue the dream with the
single-minded fanaticism that it usually takes
to rise to the top, or even to climb the rst cou-
ple of rungs.
Writer-director Chase lets his story and
characters evolve naturally with the music and
the decade, Douglas and his band mates
advancing from three-chord
cover tunes to their own stab at
a grand rock epic.
Along the way, they live the
rock life even if they dont reap
its rewards. Egos clash as the
band decides Douglas has a
better voice and is promoted to frontman over
initial vocalist Eugene (Jack Huston). Tragedy
strikes in a reckless accident involving gui-
tarist Wells (Will Brill). The band gets a dis-
heartening wake-up call about paying dues
after an audition for celebrated producer and
songwriter Jerry Ragovoy (Brad Garrett). And
Douglas satises what is arguably the main
goal for any guy who joins a rock band to
attract women as he wins over high school
dream girl Grace (Bella Heathcote).
Its no surprise, considering the union of
music and drama on The Sopranos, that
Chase assembles a killer soundtrack featuring
the Beatles, the Stones, the Kinks, Bo
Diddley, Robert Johnson, Lead Belly, Elmore
James and many others. Hes aided by fellow
Jersey guy and Sopranos co-star Steven Van
Zandt, a member of Bruce Springsteens E
Street Band, who does double duty as both
music supervisor and an executive producer
on the lm.
The period details lend great authenticity,
from Douglas gradually lengthening hair and
the ower-child adornments characters don, to
ghostly snippets of Rod Serling on The
Twilight Zone and Dean Martin on The
Hollywood Palace, to emergency-broadcast
system tests and duck-and-cover PSAs on
dealing with a nuclear attack.
Gandolni does a lovely variation on his
Tony Soprano act of domineering dad, here
playing a working-class drone who bellows
job security to his son yet reveals touching
respect and even wistful envy at the notion of
chasing impossible dreams rather than play-
ing it safe.
Not Fade Away is stronger for its talented
cast of unknowns, their unfamiliarity lending
an anonymous quality to this bands story that
makes it universal. If you werent in a failed
band yourself, you know people who were,
and Chases story IS their story, if not in the
particulars, then in the spirit and the passion.
The music may fade, but whats behind it
never does.
Not Fade Away, a Paramount Vantage
release, is rated R for pervasive language,
some drug use and sexual content. Running
time: 112 minutes. Three stars out of four.

NEW YORK After The Sopranos went
black, David Chases next move was never in
question: He would make a movie.
In all Chases time toiling as a writer in tele-
vision before The Sopranos decades rang-
ing from The Rockford Files to Northern
Exposure the big screen had beckoned. It
reached back to his days as a teenager taking
stills of 8 1/2 and Dr. Strangelove (clear
touchstones, still: one, Italian and surreal; the
other, darkly comic).
After his rst stab at writing a psychological
thriller went begging, he turned to an idea of
his since the 80s, one he occasionally kicked
around in the Sopranos writers room.
I love rock n roll so much that I really
wanted to make a movie about the music, not
about the personalities involved, not about the
ups and downs or the rise
and fall of it, says Chase.
I didnt want to do a
biopic. If it was going to be
a biopic, I wanted to do a
biopic about nobodies
which is what it kind of is.
Not Fade Away, which
Paramount Pictures will
open in limited release
Friday, is Chases first
project since The Sopranos remade
American pop culture and, among other things,
forever changed our relationship to Journey. A
coming-of-age tale set amid the generational
tumult of the 60s, its the debut of the most
promising 67-year-old lmmaker to come
along in some time.
In a recent interview at Paramounts New
York ofces, Chases steady demeanor is
belied by a romanticism that comes through in
his work and his frankness. Though many
viewers reveled in the week-to-week whacking
of The Sopranos, Chase summarizes the
show (and its infamous ending) as about the
eeting moments of tenderness in an otherwise
cold world.
All I wanted to do was present the idea of
how short life is and how precious it is, he
says. The only way I felt I could do that was
to rip it away.
Fans of The Sopranos will be pleased to
nd that Not Fade Away, while a clear depar-
ture, bears Chases distinctive storytelling: its
swirl of family dynamics, pop culture and psy-
chology. And New Jersey: The lm is set in the
suburbs of the state Chase grew up in and
where The Sopranos made its home.
Its a slightly autobiographical story about a
drummer (newcomer John Magaro) in a garage
band with outsized ambitions of becoming the
next Rolling Stones. Much of the drama comes
in the strife between an afro-ed son and his
working class family (James Gandolni, who
of course played Tony Soprano, is the disap-
proving father).
Unlike many 60s period lms, the decades
historical events are a backdrop, not the fore-
ground.
Steve Van Zandt, another Sopranos veter-
an, served as a producer and musical supervi-
sor on Not Fade Away, calls that approach
extremely accurate. The E Street Band gui-
tarist took the young actors of the lm through
a virtual rock n roll boot camp, guiding them
to sound like a genuine garage band.
Yeah there was the civil rights thing going
on; there was the womens rights thing going
on; there was this thing called Vietnam going
on, says Van Zandt. Cities were burning to the
ground. And we were like: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Just get me to band rehearsal and lets gure out
the chords to this new Yardbirds song.

M
ost Americans never
will sip the watermelon
margarita at Guy Fieris
behemoth Times Square restaurant,
nor savor the chicken Alfredo at
the Olive Garden in Grand Forks,
N.D.
Yet both eateries somehow shot
to the top of the nations culinary
zeitgeist in 2012, for this was the
year of the viral restaurant review,
when the rants and raves of sea-
soned pros and naive octogenarians
alike got superstar treatment on the
world wide smorgasbord.
It was a year when drought crip-
pled farmers while Californians
clamored for foie gras. Twinkies
died and Paula Deen endorsed a
diabetes drug. Which is to say, it
was a year when the unlikely was
the norm.
While restaurateurs bemoaned
the inuence of Yelp and other
social media review sites, 85-year-
old Grand Forks Herald restaurant
columnist Marilyn Hagerty cut
through the noise, heaping near
rhapsodic praise on the ne dining
at her communitys latest chain
restaurant. All she wanted to do
was get to her bridge game, but her
review became a must-read sensa-
tion.
And lest they be considered elite
for dissing her devotion to this ne
fare, the nations culinary upper
crust rushed to praise her. It was an
amusing and embarrassing
display of the food worlds split
personality, an ever growing chasm
between how real Americans eat,
and how real foodies want real
Americans to eat. Either way,
Hagerty did OK for herself, land-
ing a book deal with Anthony
Bourdain.
Meanwhile, New York Times
reviewer Pete Wells scored a celeb
smackdown when he slammed
Fieris New York restaurant, Guys
American Kitchen & Bar, in a
scathing 1,000-word review written
almost entirely in questions. Wells
took heat for beating on Food
Networks
bad boy, but
the review
which tore
across Twitter
the instant it
was posted
certainly
drove hordes
to Fieris
tables, even if
only to rub-
berneck the
culinary acci-
dent.
Speaking of restaurants taking a
beating, the Chick-l-A chain
earned plenty of scorn and some
support this summer when com-
pany president Dan Cathy came
out about his opposition to same
sex marriage. The dustup spawned
online Chick-l-Gay mockery,
but ended with the company saying
it would stop funding anti-gay mar-
riage groups.
Another revelation Twinkies
may not last forever. Blaming a
labor dispute for ongoing nancial
woes, Hostess Brands decided to
close shop this year, taking with it
lunch box staples such as Twinkies,
Ding Dongs and Wonder bread.
The company said it would try to
sell off its many storied brands, so
maybe there is hope for the myste-
riously enduring snack cakes.
Californias foie gras fans may
not get a similar second chance.
Despite opposition by the states
restaurant industry, as of July it
became illegal to sell
foie gras which is
made from goose or
duck livers enlarged by
force-feeding through
funnel-like tubes.
Back in New York, the
too-cool-for-you folks
spent the summer angst-
ing over whether
Brooklyn really did
have a hip dining scene.
Not that anyone outside
New York gives a ying
(artisanal bacon-wrapped) g. But
silly one-upmanship gave way to
legit worry and unity when
Superstorm Sandy dealt a devastat-
ing blow to the citys restaurant
scene.
For this years truly hot food
scene, you needed to head south.
Because THE South is where its
happening. Hugh Acheson, Tim
Love, John Besh and a gaggle
of others are putting a fresh
face on what
it means
to eat
well
when
youre
below
the
Mason-
Dixon Line, and
the rest of the country start-
ed to wake up to this.
And then theres Paula Deen, the
doyenne of butter, deep-frying and
at least this year public rela-
tions travesties. Though diagnosed
with diabetes several years ago, she
waited until January coinciden-
tally when she also had lined up a
lucrative drug endorsement deal
to go public with it. She came off
looking money-grubbing, and an
opportunity to educate Americans
about a devastating disease was
mostly lost.
But Americans did learn plenty
about their hamburgers. In March,
the Internet exploded with worry
over so-called pink slime, or what
the meat industry prefers to call
lean nely textured beef. Though it
had been part of the
food chain for
years, by
the
end of
the kerfufe the prod-
uct had all but disappeared.
Filling your grocery cart was
and will continue to be costly.
This summers massive drought in
the U.S. devastated famers and
drove up global food prices. And
the hardship isnt over. Analysts
say we can expect food prices here
to go up by as much as 4 percent in
2013.
Food safety also was a headline
grabber. For the rst time ever, the
Food and Drug Administration
used newly granted authority to
shutter a company without a court
hearing. In November, the govern-
ment shut down Sunland Inc., the
countrys largest organic peanut
butter processor, after repeated
food safety violations.
Meanwhile, the nations kids
seem to be sick of being told to
eat healthier. Nutritionists
praised the most signicant
overhaul of federal school
lunch standards in years, but
the kids in the lunch lines
were less
impressed;
schools
report-
ed
more
food
land-
ing
uneaten in
the trash.
But the kids wont get much
sympathy in New York City, where
a rst-in-the-nation ban on eateries
selling sodas larger than 16 ounces
means slurping a monster gulper is
going to require double sting.
At times this year it felt like the
food world belonged to the geeks,
and the rest of us just eat in it.
Nathan Myhrvolds science chic
approach to cooking continued to
woo foodies, and even the more
populist folks at Cooks Illustrated
magazine got in on the act with a
new cookbook, The Science of
Good Cooking.

WASHINGTON The State Department
on Thursday acknowledged major weaknesses
in security and errors in judgment exposed in
a scathing independent report on the deadly
Sept. 11 assault on a U.S. diplomatic mission
in Libya. Two top State ofcials appealed to
Congress to fully fund requests to ensure
diplomats and embassies are safe.
Testifying before two congressional com-
mittees, senior State Department officials
admitted that serious management and leader-
ship failures left the diplomatic mission in
Benghazi woefully unprepared for the terrorist
attack that killed Ambassador Chris Stevens
and three other Americans.
We clearly fell down on the job with regard
to Benghazi, Deputy Secretary of State
William Burns told the House Foreign Affairs
Committee. Earlier, before the Senate Foreign
Relations Committee, Burns said: We
learned some very hard and painful lessons in
Benghazi. We are already acting on them. We
have to do better.
Burns and Deputy Secretary of State
Thomas Nides testied in place of Secretary
of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, who was
under doctors orders to stay home and recov-
er from a concussion she suffered last week.
Burns and Nides reiterated Clintons written
acceptance of the panels report and vowed to
implement each of its 29 recommendations.
The White House on Thursday also made its
rst comment on the damning ndings of the
report. Spokesman Jay Carney said that what
happened in Benghazi was clearly unaccept-
able, and that problems had to be xed.
The report found that systematic failures
and leadership and management deciencies
at senior levels of the State Department
meant that security was inadequate for
Benghazi and grossly inadequate to deal with
the attack that took place.
The Senate hearing provided an odd scene
because the committee chairman, Sen. John
Kerry, D-Mass., is the top candidate to replace
Clinton as secretary of state in President
Barack Obamas second-term Cabinet. Kerry
presided at the hearing, but asked no questions
of ofcials who could be his future employ-
ees.
In an opening statement, Kerry said the
department had clear warning signs of a
deteriorating security situation before the
attack. He also faulted Congress for failing to
provide sufcient money to protect facilities
worldwide, forcing the department to scram-
ble to cover security costs.

UNITED NATIONS The U.N. Security
Council on Thursday authorized military
action to wrest northern Mali from the control
of al-Qaida-linked extremists but demanded
progress rst on political reconciliation, elec-
tions and training African troops and police.
A resolution adopted unanimously by the
U.N.s most powerful body stressed that there
must be a two-track plan, political and mili-
tary, to reunify the country, which has been in
turmoil since a coup in March.
The Security Council authorized an
African-led force to support Malian authori-
ties in recovering the north an area the size
of Texas but set no timeline for military
action. Instead, it set out benchmarks to be
met before the start of offensive operations,
beginning with progress on a political
roadmap to restore constitutional order.
The resolution also emphasizes that further
military planning is needed before the
African-led force is sent to the north and asks
Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon to conrm
in advance the councils satisfaction with the
planned military offensive operation.
U.N. peacekeeping chief Herve Ladsous
said recently he does not expect a military
operation to begin until September or October
of next year.
Mali was plunged into turmoil after a coup
in March created a security vacuum. That
allowed the secular Tuaregs, who have long
felt marginalized by Malis government, to
take half the north as a new homeland. But
months later, the rebels were kicked out by
Islamist groups allied with al-Qaida, which
have now imposed strict Shariah law in the
north.
Iraq finance minister says
staff members kidnapped
BAGHDAD Iraqs nance minister on
Thursday accused a militia force of kidnap-
ping members of his staff and said he holds
the prime minister personally responsible for
their safety.
Finance Minister Raa al-Issawi leveled the
charges just hours after Iraqs ailing president
was own to Germany for medical treatment
following a stroke. The 79-year-old president,
Jalal Talabani, is widely seen as a unifying g-
ure who is able to rise above Iraqs often bit-
ter politics and mediate among the countrys
ethnic and sectarian groups.
Al-Issawi made the accusations in a late
night press conference, where he called on
parliament to hold a vote of no condence
against Prime Minister Nouri al-Malikis
Shiite-led government.

dation of a national mental health sys-
tem, Steinberg, a Democrat from
Sacramento, said at a news conference.
The $1 billion in annual funding has
been offset as other California programs
have lost hundreds of millions of dollars
due to budget cuts elsewhere in the sys-
tem.
Jessica Cruz, executive director of the
National Alliance on Mental Illness-
California, praised Steinbergs proposal
but said the nation should do even more
to provide adequate funding for mental
health services.
Bidens ofce had no immediate com-
ment, but the proposal was backed by
lawmakers including Rep. Doris Matsui,
D-Sacramento, who has introduced the
Excellence in Mental Health Act. Her
legislation would support community
mental health services and make them
eligible for Medicaid reimbursement.
Steinbergs proposal had general sup-
port from state Sen. Ted Gaines of
Roseville, a conservative Republican
senator who generally opposes gun con-
trol efforts.
Gaines said he will introduce legisla-
tion that would permanently bar anyone
from owning a gun if they have been
deemed by the courts to be a danger to
others because of a mental disorder or
mental illness.
Current law allows such people to
petition the court to legally possess a
rearm after they have completed treat-
ment. Gaines bill would also extend the
weapons prohibition to mentally disor-
dered sex offenders.
He is among several lawmakers
advancing proposals to tighten gun
restrictions and improve school safety
preparations.
On Thursday, Assemblywoman Nancy
Skinner, D-Berkeley, said she will intro-
duce legislation requiring that those buy-
ing ammunition show identication, that
the purchases be reported to the state
Department of Justice, and that all
ammunition dealers be licensed and
undergo a background check. Her legis-
lation also would ban kits than can be
used to convert ammunition clips into
high-capacity magazines.
Gov. Jerry Brown told the AP on
Thursday that he has not had time to
consider the legislation being introduced
in response to last weeks massacre.
Though California is at the forefront
of regulating weapons, Brown said,
theres more things that can be done
and Im sure well see a lot of good sug-
gestions.
HEALTH
ried up to 20 years incarceration. The
deal also ends a case that drew Japanese
media to San Mateo County and saw
several bizarre moments during a ve-
day preliminary hearing this fall, includ-
ing the abrupt quitting of one translator
and his wife trying to secretly record her
testimony for a civil attorney. Consulate
members were also chastised by the
judge not to intimidate Yuka Nagaya
during her testimony.
Nagaya had been scheduled for a jury
trial Feb. 4 but will instead now return to
court that day for formal sentencing.
The settlement is completely appro-
priate. He is now convicted of two
counts and all counts can be considered
for sentencing. This once again proves
that we can protect women, Wagstaffe
said.
Yuka Nagaya testied that the couple,
who had married in April 2010, often
quarreled over suspicions he was having
a relationship with a fellow consul
employee. The alleged abuse began
when they lived in San Francisco and
continued after they moved to San
Bruno. She said between January 2011
and March 31, 2012, the incidents
included hitting her over the head with a
laptop, stabbing her hand with a minia-
ture screwdriver, pouring milk over her
head and striking her face so hard she
later lost a tooth. San Bruno police
arrested Nagaya April 1 after she said he
threw her from a car in the parking lot of
their San Bruno apartment.
During the preliminary hearing, prose-
cutors presented photographs Yuka
Nagaya took of the injuries.
Nagaya is free from custody on
$350,000 cash bail and has remained
employed with the consulate in San
Francisco.
NAGAYA
upgrades long-term costs.
Its not good for safety, because
PG&E wont get the message, Long
said.
Commissioners said they were trying
to strike a balance between punishing
the company for past mismanagement
and encouraging the company to invest
in safety, which requires meeting expen-
sive new infrastructure and operating
requirements for all state utilities and
xing record-keeping and other prob-
lems found to be unique to PG&E.
We want to make sure PG&Es new
management team has the resources to
provide the safe system we all want,
Commissioner Mike Florio said.
The explosion prompted a series of
state and federal investigations. The
National Transportation Safety Board
said the accident was caused by what
NTSB chairman Deborah Hersman
called a litany of failures by PG&E, as
well as weak oversight by regulators.
Hersman called the explosion the
nations most signicant pipeline acci-
dent in the last decade, not only in terms
of its destructiveness, but also for the
significant maintenance lapses it
revealed.
California State Sen. Jerry Hill
described the commissions decisions on
how to apportion the expense of operat-
ing gas pipelines safely as a Christmas
gift for PG&E.
This will allow PG&E to prot from
their gross negligence, he said.
PG&E could also face hundreds of
millions of dollars in possible nes in
other proceedings before the commis-
sion.
Attorneys for the San Bruno blast vic-
tims have argued that PG&E did not do
enough to determine if the pipeline had
defective welds.
PG&E has claimed in court lings that
the explosion was an accident and not
due to mismanagement.
PG&E
about five years before approaching
Anderson himself about nding some
housing. He worked but did not make
enough to afford the areas high rents.
This is life-changing, Spence told
the Daily Journal yesterday. I have no
complaints.
Both received Christmas presents yes-
terday, something neither really experi-
enced last year.
Prior to permanent housing, medical
expenses for the clients averaged about
$195 each a month. One year after hous-
ing, the expense has dropped to about
$29 each a month, according to
InnVision Shelter Network.
In the five years prior to the
HOT/Vendome program, San Mateos
police department spent a total of
$141,675 in expenses from the chroni-
cally homeless now housed at the
Vendome, according to InnVision
Shelter Network.
The city bought the hotel, remodeled it
and opened it up in 2009. InnVision
Shelter Network contracts with the city
to provide case management services for
the 16 men and two women who live
their now.

NOTICE OF PETITION TO
ADMINISTER ESTATE OF
Richard M. Alhona
Case Number 122863
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, con-
tingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or es-
tate, or both, of: Richard M. Alhona. A
Petition for Probate has been filed by
Patricia L. Alhona in the Superior Court
of California, County of San Mateo. The
Petition for Probate requests that Patricia
L. Alhona be appointed as personal rep-
resentative to administer the estate of
the decedent.
The petition requests the decedents will
and codicils, if any, be admitted to pro-
bate. The will and any codicils are avail-
able for examination in the file kept by
the court.
The petition requests authority to admin-
ster the estate under the Independent
Administration of Estates Act. (This au-
thority will allow the personal representa-
tive to take many actions without obtain-
ing court approval. Before taking certain
very important actions, however, the per-
sonal representative will be required to
give notice to interested persons unless
they have waived notice or consented to
the proposed action.) The independent
administration authority will be granted
unless an interested person files an ob-
jection to the petition and shows good
cause why the court should not grant the
authority.
A hearing on the petition will be held in
this court as follows: January 14, 2013 at
9:00 a.m., Dept. 28, Superior Court of
California, County of San Mateo, 400
County Center, Redwood City, CA
94063. If you object to the granting of
the petition, you should appear at the
hearing and state your objections or file
written objections with the court before
the hearing. Your appearance may be in
person or by your attorney. If you are a
creditor or a contingent creditor of the
decedent, you must file your claim with
the court and mail a copy to the personal
representative appointed by the court
within four months from the date of first
issuance of letters as provided in Pro-
bate Code section 9100. The time for fil-
ing claims will not expire before four
months from the hearing date noticed
above. You may examine the file kept by
the court. If you are a person interested
in the estate, you may file with the court
a Request for Special Notice (form DE-
154) of the filing of an inventory and ap-
praisal of estate assets or of any petition
or account as provided in Probate Code
section 1250. A Request for Special No-
tice form is available from the court clerk.
