The Heiress and Her Chateau: Carolands of Californiasproducer and director Catherine Ryan looks at an old photograph in
the mansions library.
By Angela Swartz
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Hidden in Hillsborough, behind
massive gates, is a more than 65,000-
square-foot, 4.5-floor mansion con-
structed 100 years ago by an heiress to
the Pullman railway car fortune.
A new documentary, airing on PBS
this Sunday night, brings to light the
history of the 98-room Carolands
Chateau, which was built as on 554
acres of land purchased in April 1912
by Harriett Pullman Carolan, one of
the richest women in the country.
The Heiress and Her Chateau:
Carolands of California touches on
the changes the house has endured
since its inception. Gary Weimberg
and Catherine Ryan of Berkeleys Luna
Productions produced, directed, edited
and wrote the film after being
approached by the Jenny Johnson,
who thought it would be a great story
to tell. Jenny is the daughter of the
Ann Johnson who undertook a multi-
million dollar restoration of the home
in the late 1990s.
When we did research, we found the
stories of this building were so rich,
Ryan said. What a beautiful location
to lm at and we found some treasures.
Doing research was really fun. We were
able to access letters between Harriett
and her mother.
She noted it was a historic time when
people came to Hillsborough to create
a grand social lifestyle for those in the
San Francisco area. Pullman Carolan
brought on the well-known French
architect Ernest Sanson to design the
home, which ultimately included a
grand staircase, three antique rooms

Gov. Brown says state in the midst of
perhaps its worst dry spell in century
Its official:
California
in drought
By Gillian laccus and Jason Dearen
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES California is nearly
as dry as its ever been. High water marks
rim half-full reservoirs. Cities are
rationing water. Clerics are praying for
rain. Ranchers are selling cattle, and
farmers are fallowing elds.
Gov. Jerry Brown formally proclaimed
a drought Friday, saying California is in
the midst of perhaps its worst dry spell in a century. He made
the announcement in San Francisco amid increasing pres-
sure from lawmakers and as reghters battled are-ups in a
Southern California wildre that chased thousands of people
from their homes.
Unless the state gets signicant rainfall in the next two
months, television sets glowing with wildres could play

The rst landing of an aircraft on a

brought his Curtiss biplane in for a
safe landing on the deck of the

The compensation of growing old was simply this:
that the passions remain as strong as ever, but one
has gained at last! the power which adds the
supreme avor to existence, the power of taking hold
of experience, of turning it round, slowly, in the light.

Apossible $1 million white collar crime
ne is tripping up sentencing of two former
mosquito district workers who stole a half-
million dollars for personal needs, includ-
ing ones legal bills in an earlier embezzle-
ment case.
Defense attorney Geoff Carr said news of
the previously unknown ne allows him to
withdraw the no contest plea by his client
Jo Ann Dearman but hed prefer instead to
have prosecutors waive the penalty and let
her use some of that money to repay the ear-
lier victim. Carr also said theres no way
his client can pay $1 million to the state on
top of the $233,000 restitution shes put
together to repay the San Mateo County
Mosquito and Vector Control District.
Where is she going to get that? Its a
really bizarre statute developed for the
Madoffs of the world and this lady aint in
that circle, Carr said.
Dearman, who is also known by the name
Joanne Seeney, pleaded no contest in April
2013 to 10 felonies out of the original 200
charged and her sentence is predicated
largely on restitution. Carr is seeking ve
to six years while prosecutors are asking
for 10 years.
At the last court appearance, Carr pre-
sented a $200,000 check to the court but a
judge ordered Dearman, 62, into custody
without pending sentencing. She had been
out of custody largely the entire prosecu-
tion.
Her accomplice and former bookkeeping
assistant Vika Sinipata, 37, pleaded no
contest to 12 felonies in February 2013 but
her sentencing has been postponed repeat-
edly along with Dearman because attorneys
want them before a judge together. Sinipata
has been in custody on
$150,000 bail.
They next appear in
court Jan. 24 the
eighth attempt at sen-
tencing at which time
Carr said a decision about
the white collar fine
should be made.
District Attorney Steve
Wagstaffe said Carr
should have been aware
of the ne component of one allegation to
which Dearman pleaded and that his ofce is
not planning to forgo it.
Sinipata did not admit a similar allega-
tion or face the ne.
Carr said Friday he suggested taking the
$233,000 earmarked for the district and
giving $33,000 or so of it to his clients
previous employers from whom she stole
but that the county counsel wasnt in favor
of the suggestion.
The aggravated white collar ne is calcu-
lated by doubling the amount a defendant
took, Carr said.
The California penal code says the desig-
nation is for a person who commits two or
more felonies involving fraud or embezzle-
ment with losses more than $100,000.
In the latest case, Dearman and Sinipata
embezzled the funds between 2009 and
2011 by giving themselves extra pay at a
higher pay rate and fraudulent time off,
excessively contributing to their deferred
compensation funds, using credit cards for
personal purchases and electronically
transferring money into their own
accounts. An audit showed more than
$635,000 missing but prosecutors only
charged them with stealing approximately
$450,000 because they could not prove an
actual loss of the greater amount. Other
evaluations have placed
the district loss closer to
$800,000 for the embez-
zlement and more than
$1.2 million when attor-
ney fees are added in.
The embezzlement
came to light after a
board member appointed
by the city of San Carlos
questioned the balance in
a pesticide account.
The charges against Dearman and
Sinipata raised questions about the dis-
tricts oversight and operations, particular-
ly because at the time Dearman had one
embezzlement conviction on her record and
was being prosecuted for a second. District
Manager Robert Gay hired Dearman without
a background or reference check after
Sinipata, who Gay knew through her
accounting services, referred her. Dearman
then hired Sinipata.
According to a now-retired operations
director at the district, Dearman charged
defense attorneys fees for that case to the
district and at one point took medical
leave, claiming she needed to care for her
mother but in actuality served two years and
eight months in prison for the two different
embezzlement cases. In one case, Dearman
ran up more than a half-million dollars on
her boss credit card.

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
A San Francisco man charged with
throwing a hammer at picketing BART
workers and later threatening to take
care of jail ofcers is incompetent to
stand trial, according to two court-
appointed doctors.
The decision means Vincent
Matteucci, 39, will be hospitalized at
a state mental facility rather than pos-
sibly incarcerated. Competency is a
persons ability to aid in his or her
own defense while sanity is the mental
state at the time of an alleged crime.
Matteucci was rst arrested Oct. 21
after reportedly throwing the tool at
picketers outside the Daly City sta-
tion as his friend
yelled at the strik-
ers to get your
asses back to
work. The hammer
landed about 15 feet
away.
Officers who
arrested Matteucci
reported nding on
him a wood-handled
pick he called his
whittler and he allegedly told
authorities he threw the hammer in
self-defense.
While in jail awaiting prosecution
on felony counts of assault with a
deadly weapon, possessing a dirk or
dagger and a misdemeanor count of
brandishing a knife, Matteucci
allegedly refused to comply with
orders by two San Mateo County sher-
iffs deputies working there.
Prosecutors say he repeatedly threat-
ened to take care of them on the out-
side and that he would terminate their

Two more flu-related
deaths bump Bay Area total to 23
As u season continues this winter, Santa Clara County
reported two more u-related deaths Friday, bringing the Bay
Area total to 23.
Two women, ages 52 and 62, died this week from the H1N1
virus, also known as swine u, Santa Clara County Public
Health Department spokeswoman Amy Cornell said Friday.
The county reported the rst Bay Area u-related death this
season when a 41-year-old woman passed away in December
shortly before Christmas, Cornell said.
This month two men, 61 and 56 years old, and a 62-year-old
woman have also died from the virus, she said.
There have been six u-related deaths in the county this sea-
son.
There have also been 15 people who have been hospitalized
after coming down with severe cases of the u this season,
according to Cornell.
Throughout the state, there have been 45 conrmed inuen-
za deaths statewide and 50 more suspected cases as of Jan. 11,
according to Dr. Gil Chavez, deputy director and state epi-
demiologist with the Department of Public Healths Center for
Infectious Diseases.
There have been at least 23 u deaths in the Bay Area as of
Friday afternoon, according to local health departments. That
number is higher than the 14 conrmed in the region so far by
the state Department of Public Health.
The state health department is not required to report u
deaths of people over age 65, Chavez said.
Three Bay Area federal judge
nominees clear Senate committee
Three nominees for federal judgeships in San Francisco and
San Jose moved a step closer to taking the bench when they
won approval from U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee.
The committee sent President Obams nominations of
Deputy San Francisco City Attorney Vince Chhabria, San
Francisco attorney James Donato and San Mateo County
Superior Court Judge Beth Freeman to the full Senate.
All three were nominated to the U.S. District Court for
Northern California by Obama last year and were approved by
the committee but were never given a vote by the full Senate
before the congressional session ended. Obama re-nominated
them this month.
The U.S. District Court is based in San Francisco and has
branches in Oakland and San Jose. Chhabria and Donato were
nominated for seats in San Francisco and Freeman for a post in
San Jose.

A71-year-old registered sex offender
who allegedly molested a 10-year-old
girl in an isolated area of a San Mateo
bookstore in June and was later arrest-
ed in Mountain View for similar behav-
ior pleaded not guilty to the local case.
Christopher Wendell Miller, of San
Jose, is charged with kidnapping and
child molestation in the alleged June
23 incident at Barnes & Noble on
Hillsdale Boulevard. Bail was set at
$25,000 and he remains in custody.
Prosecutors say on June 23, a man
later identied as Miller approached
the girl in the San Mateo stores chil-
drens reading area and exposed him-
self. He also allegedly ordered the girl
to touch his genitals
and lured her to a
secluded area past
the store bathrooms
where he exposed
himself again and
touched her groin
over her clothing.
The suspect then
asked the girl for her
name, address and
when she was alone
at home, prosecutors said.
The man remained at large until iden-
tied through photographs and video
circulated by police and arrested in
Mountain View for fondling himself in
front of two young girls at a Walmart
store. The mother yelled at the man and
alerted store employees who followed
him to his car and wrote down the
license plate for police who arrested
him Sept. 7.
Miller, who was already a sex offend-
er registrant, was convicted in Santa
Clara County in November 2014 for
felony indecent exposure and child
annoyance. He received four years
prison.
He is also suspected in a Union City
incident at a Burger King. Like Miller,
the suspect wore a sherman-style hat.
Miller did not waive his right to a
speedy trial and returns to court Jan. 29
for a preliminary hearing.

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
A San Mateo County judge
denied a writ petition to overturn a
San Mateo City Council decision
to shut down a 7-Eleven store it
argued was operating illegally in a
residential area, according to
Councilman David Lim.
The petition came in a legal dis-
pute between the city and
Portfolio Development Partners
over the convenience store, which
opened in late 2012 after being
converted from a former deli. After
the deli closed, the location
should have reverted to a residen-
tial use but city staff issued build-
ing permits in error, city ofcials
have contended. Last January, the
City Council voted to shut down
the location and a court battle has
ensued.
Attorneys for both 7-Eleven and
PDP say they will lose a combined
$8 million if the store is forced to
close after buying the property for
$1 million and upgrading it from
an old deli into a modern market.
PDP had sought to strike down the
councils decision.
The judges ruling can be
appealed. The original lawsuit
led by the city to remove the 24-
hour convenience store will be
heard at a later date.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. As legislatures
return to action and governors outline their
budget plans, politicians in many states are
facing a pleasant election-year challenge:
What to do with all the extra money?
A slow but steady economic recovery is
generating more tax revenue than many states
had anticipated, offering elected ofcials tan-
talizing choices about whether to ply voters
with tax breaks, boost spending for favorite
programs or sock away cash for another rainy
day.
Its a tricky question because of the eco-
nomic experiments begun almost nationwide
since the recession. Acouple of dozen states
controlled by Republicans have been seeking
prosperity with tax cuts and less government.
Their Democratic counterparts have sought to
fortify their economies by investing more in
education and other social services.
The clamor for new spending is already
revealing ssures among some governors and
lawmakers. And clashes have arisen even
within the same party, suggesting that the
debate in some places could widen beyond
typical partisan disputes.
Democratic New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo,
for example, wants to tap a surplus to cut
taxes, despite other Democrats ideas for new
spending. In Louisiana, Republican Gov.
Bobby Jindal wants to steer the surplus to
education and health care.
The National Association of State Budget
Ofcers projects that almost all states will see
fairly decent surpluses in their 2014 budg-
ets. For some, it may be the rst extra cash
since before the recession began in late
2007. In many states, the surpluses coincide
with elections that mark the rst opportunity
for ofcials to be judged on the results of their
economic policies.
Voters in November will choose 36 gover-
nors and more than 6,000 state legislators in
what amounts to a referendum on whether
they want to continue the single-party domi-
nance that currently exists in three-fourths of
state capitols.
I think this election cycle will tell us a lot
about whether or not were going to have bet-
ter scal-management ofcials in charge, or
whether were going to go back to business
as usual, which is if the revenue comes in,
lets gure out a way to spend it, said Ross
DeVol, chief researcher at the Milken
Institute, an economic think tank in Santa
Monica.
In California, once the epitome of busted
budgets, a resurgent technology sector and
recent temporary tax increases have generated
forecasts of a $3.2 billion budget surplus.
Democratic Gov. Jerry Brown wants some
increased spending but also to pay down
debts and rebuild a rainy-day fund.
It isnt time to just embark on a raft of new
initiatives, Brown warned.
State surpluses spark debate on tax cuts, spending
San Francisco mayor touts new
housing proposal in city speech
San Francisco Mayor Ed Lee says at least
30,000 more housing units will be added in the
city within the next six
years as rental and hous-
ing costs continue to rise.
Lee said during his
State of the City address
on Friday that at least
one-third of new or reha-
bilitated housing built by
2020 will be for low- and
middle-income families.
He hopes it will address
San Franciscos housing shortage thats cre-
ating more demand and rising costs.
The mayor also outlined a seven-point
plan he believes will help affordable hous-
ing go up at a faster rate, protect residents
from eviction, stabilize rent-controlled
units and rebuild public housing.
The city has been criticized by many
longtime residents and housing advocates
who blame rising housing costs on the
regions ourishing technology industry.

Have you ever been
entrusted to make
final arrangements
for a funeral?
Those of you
whove had this
experience know
that important decisions are required and
must be made in a timely manner. The next
of kin is many times required to search for
information about the deceased which may
not be easily accessible, and must answer
questions without the time to think things
out. Even though your Funeral Director is
trained to guide you every step of the way, it
is still best for you to be prepared with the
proper information if the need should arise.
Ask your Funeral Director what info is
needed before you meet with him/her.
Making funeral arrangements can be very
simple, or can become difficult at times if
you are not prepared. A good Funeral
Director is experienced in leading you with
the necessary requirements, and will offer
details that you may not have thought about
or previously considered as an option.
Allowing him/her to guide you will make
the arrangements go by quickly and easily.
A number of items should be considered
in preparation for the future:
1. Talk to your loved ones about the
inevitable. Give them an indication on what
your wishes are regarding the type of funeral
you want, burial or cremation, etc., and ask
them their feelings about plans for their own
funeral. This is only conversation, but it is
an important topic which will help break the
ice and prevent any type of confusion when
the time comes.
2. Talk to your Funeral Director. Write
down a list of questions and make a phone
call to your Funeral Director asking how to
be prepared. He/she will gladly provide
detailed information and can mail this
information to you for your reference.
Asking questions doesnt cost anything and
will help you with being organized.
3. Make an appointment and Pre-plan a
Funeral. Many more people are following
through with this step by making Pre-Need
Arrangements. Completing arrangements
ahead of time makes this process more
relaxed, and putting these details behind you
will take a weight off your shoulders. Your
wishes will be finalized and kept on file at
the Mortuary. Your Funeral Director will
even help you set aside funding now as to
cover costs at the time of death. Families
who meet with us at the CHAPEL OF THE
HIGHLANDS are grateful for the chance to
make Pre-Need Arrangements. With their
final details in place it helps to make matters
more calming for surviving loved-ones.
4. Enjoy Life. There are those who dwell
on situations that cant be controlled.
Taking time to stop and look around at
beauty in the world and appreciate good
things can be therapeutic. If you need to use
a negative statement, try re-wording it into a
positive. Change I had a lousy day today
into Today was demanding, but it made me
appreciate my better days. As the song
goes: Accentuate the positive; Eliminate
the negative; Latch on to the affirmative.
If you ever wish to discuss cremation,
funeral matters or want to make pre-
planning arrangements please feel free to
call me and my staff at the CHAPEL OF
THE HIGHLANDS in Millbrae at (650)
588-5116 and we will be happy to guide you
in a fair and helpful manner. For more info
you may also visit us on the internet at:

Accentuating The Positive
Can Eliminate The Negative

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON After last falls tumul-
tuous, bitterly partisan debt ceiling and
government shutdown ghts, a sense of s-
cal fatigue seems to be setting in among
many Washington policymakers as
President Barack Obama prepares for his
fth State of the Union address later this
month.
A declining U.S. budget deficit, still-
accommodative Federal Reserve and a small-
bore budget deal negotiated last month
given nal approval Thursday in Congress
and signed by Obama on Friday are help-
ing to temper partisan rhetoric in the short
term as attention in Washington shifts to
the approaching midterm elections.
The recovery from the deep recession of
2007-2009 has been one of the slowest in
history and still has a
ways to go, especially in
terms of regaining lost
jobs. That was driven
home by a Labor
Department report last
Friday that U.S. employ-
ers added just 74,000 jobs
last month, far fewer
than had been forecast
and the smallest monthly
gain in three years.
The overall jobless rate dropped to 6.7
percent from 7 percent in November, the
lowest level since October 2008. Much of
the decline came from Americans who
stopped looking for jobs and are no longer
being counted by the government as unem-
ployed. Meanwhile, a growing number of
baby boomers are retiring.
Still, economists are generally predict-
ing a pickup in economic growth in 2014
amid a continued favorable climate of low
inflation, falling oil prices, a housing
recovery and the Fed sticking to its plan to
only slowly pare back the hundreds of bil-
lions of dollars in nancial stimulus it has
pumped into the economy over the past
four years.
Meanwhile, recent polls show rising pub-
lic distaste for brinkmanship and dysfunc-
tion on both sides of the political divide in
Washington. In a recent poll, conducted by
the AP-NORC Center for Public Affairs
Research, 70 percent said they lacked con-
dence in the governments ability to make
progress on the important problems and
issues facing the country in 2014.
Last October, GOP conservatives forced a
16-day government shutdown with their
failed attempt to defund Obamas health
insurance overhaul.
Fiscal fatigue grabs capital
as president preps speech

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON Tightening the reins on
the nations sweeping surveillance opera-
tions, President Barack Obama on Friday
ordered new limits on the way intelligence
ofcials access phone records from hundreds
of millions of Americans and moved
toward eventually stripping the massive
data collection from the governments
hands.
But Obamas highly anticipated intelli-
gence recommendations left many key
details unresolved, most notably who might
take over as keeper of the vast trove of U.S.
phone records. Final decisions on that and
other major questions were left to the
Justice Department and to intelligence
agencies that oppose changing surveillance
operations, and to a Congress that is divid-
ed about the future of the programs.
If fully implemented, Obamas proposals
would mark the most signicant changes to
the surveillance laws that were passed in
reaction to the Sept. 11, 2011, terror
attacks. While Obama has said he has wel-
comed the recent spying debate, its unlike-
ly to have happened without the national
and international backlash following a
wave of leaks from former National Security
Agency analyst Edward Snowden.
For now, the phone records will continue
to reside with the government. But the NSA
will need to get approval from the secretive
Foreign Surveillance Intelligence Court
each time it wants to access the data, a more
cumbersome process than currently
required. Exceptions will be made in the
event of a national security emergency, of-
cials said.
Responding to outrage overseas, Obama
pledged on Friday to curb spying on friend-
ly allied leaders and to extend some privacy
protections to foreign citizens. The propos-
als appeared to ease some anger in Germany,
which had been particularly incensed by
revelations that the NSA had monitored the
communications of Chancellor Angela
Merkel.
Obama tightens reins on surveillance programs
FDA OKs mental disability
blood test for infants
WASHINGTON The Food and Drug
Administration on Friday cleared a rst-of-
a-kind blood test that can help diagnose
mental disabilities in babies by analyzing
their genetic code.
The laboratory test from Affymetrix
detects variations in patients chromo-
somes that are linked to Down syndrome,
DiGeorge syndrome and other developmen-
tal disorders. About 2 to 3 percent of U.S.
children have some sort of intellectual dis-
ability, according to the National Institutes
of Health.
The test, known as the CytoScan Dx
Assay, is designed to help doctors diagnose
childrens disabilities earlier and get them
appropriate care and support. It is not
intended for prenatal screening or for pre-
dicting other genetically acquired diseases
and conditions, such as cancer.
While there are already genetic tests used
to detect conditions like Downs syndrome,
doctors usually have to order them individu-
ally and they can take several days to devel-
op.
Surgeon general urges
new resolve to end smoking
WASHINGTON One in 13 children
could see their lives shortened by smoking
unless the nation takes more aggressive
action to end the tobacco epidemic, the U.S.
Surgeon General said Friday even as,
astonishingly, scientists added still more
diseases to the long list of cigarettes
harms.
Enough is enough, acting Surgeon
General Borish Lushniak declared at a White
House ceremony unveiling the 980-page
report that urges new resolve to make the
next generation a smoke-free generation.
The clock is ticking, Lushniak said.
We cant wait another 50 years.

Banking profits
Editor,
Latest news flash: banks post
increase in profits, bank employee
stock awards climb, bank stocks
rally on Wall Street. How could this
be after the whipping they took for
selling mortgage backed securities
that went south?
For those who think there is
another plan by banks to rip off the
unsuspecting public, here is your
opportunity to get involved. The
Senate Committee on Banking,
Housing and Urban Affairs, in
Washington, D.C., will need to get
your input as soon as possible. This
committee is composed of 12
Democrats and 10 Republicans.
They will need to hear from you now
to avoid another fiasco. It appears
that they missed the boat on the last
one and need a heads-up this time
around.
So, rather than complain in these
columns, it is your patriotic duty to
write or call your representatives in
Washington.

Dimitre was on point
Editor,
My thanks to Dorothy Dimitre for
her column, Thoughts on
droughts, in the Jan. 15 edition of
the Daily Journal. As usual, she was
on point and insightful.
The only addition I would make is
to point out that almost a week
before Bishop Soto made his prayer
call, weather forecasters predicted
the dribble of rain we got a few days
after the call. So much for prayer.
The New York Times in its Jan. 17
edition has an article titled U.N.
Panel Questions Vatican on
Handling of Clergy Sexual Abuse.
Apparently it is being mostly not
handled and the Vatican is denying
responsibility for the decades of
reports of clergy sexual abuse. As
California and the now Cardinal
Mahony, formerly archbishop of
Los Angeles, are in the forefront of
the abuse scandal, Im guessing that
Bishop Soto and friends may have a
little more to talk about and pray
about at their next Conference of
Catholic Bishops than the weather.

Its still a hoax
Editor,
Recently, I wrote a letter asserting
my thoughts on the global warming
hoax which was disputed by one
Mike Slavens of San Mateo. Since
that time, I have done a little more
looking and have come to this con-
clusion; we probably should listen
to Mike and support the scholars
and experts he mentioned.
Why? Well, those scholars and
experts are the ones who came up
with the hockey stick temperature
scam. Oops! Then, Gore and his
computer model said the ice caps
would probably be melted by last
year. That didnt happen, but the ice
caps have nearly doubled in one year
from September 2012 to September
2013. Oops! Then, there are the hun-
dreds and hundreds of emails by
scholars and experts around the
world trying to figure out what to do
to cover up the fact they cooked the
books on global warming. Oops! So
these are the scholars and experts we
should be listening to. Sorry I mis-
judged the whole thing, Mike.
One other thing, I want to thank
all those who have worn a military
uniform, mine was Navy, to keep
this country free; thank you for your
service. If you have not served your
country to keep it free, as far as I am
concerned, you do not have any
business talking about our countrys
military for any reason.

Letters to the editor
New York Times
I
t has been three years since the
last new case of polio was
reported in India. The country
can now be declared polio-free.
Indias victory is an important mile-
stone in the global effort to elimi-
nate polio. In 2013, just 250 people
were paralyzed by polio. But the
viral disease remains a threat. The
World Health Organization reported
359 new polio cases as of Dec. 10,
2013, up from 213 in December
2012. And the number of countries
where polio is present rose to eight
from four between December 2012
and December 2013, with polio
spreading out of Nigeria into the
Horn of Africa and from Pakistan
into the Middle East. Violent con-
flict and distrust of vaccination pro-
grams are to blame.
Cases of polio in Pakistan, where
skepticism of vaccination efforts
remains after the revelation that the
United States Central Intelligence
Agency used a fake vaccination pro-
gram in its hunt for Osama bin
Laden, rose to 85 in 2013 from 58 in
2012. The W.H.O. also reported 17
confirmed cases and 60 suspected
cases of polio in 2013 in and along
the borders of war-torn Syria, a
country that had been free of polio
for 14 years.
With eradication of polio so close,
these nations need to redouble
efforts to combat the disease. India
can play a vital role. It has wel-
comed experts from polio-affected
countries and has sent medical offi-
cers to Nigeria to help with eradica-
tion initiatives there. Pakistan is
also enhancing its efforts. It has
raised the salaries of vaccinators,
created police and army escorts to
ensure their safety and enlisted mul-
lahs and imams to calm fears that
vaccination is a Western plot.
In the most violent polio-affected
areas, warring factions and rebel
groups must be persuaded to embrace
Unicefs strategy where they agree
to cease hostilities long enough for
health workers to reach vulnerable
populations. Indias technical and
logistical success and Pakistans
efforts to enlist trusted local leaders
are important examples to follow.
All of these tactics will be necessary
to eradicate polio in 2014 and to
ensure that by 2018 this terrible
virus is gone for good.
Eradicating polio everywhere
Legacy of MLK
By John McDowell
M
onday will mark Martin Luther King Jr. Day,
31 years since Congress passed, and
President Reagan signed, the law setting
aside the third Monday in January as a holiday honoring
the Rev. Dr. King, and all of those who engaged in the
Civil Rights struggle. Martin Luther King has rightly
entered the pantheon of American heroes and this week-
end will be devoted to his life and legacy, including a
nationwide Day of Service.
Many people are better able to tell his story than I
can, especially those who worked directly with him and
who participated in civil rights
actions from marches, sit-ins and
voter registration drives. Instead, Id
like to explain how, in a personal
way, Dr. Kings legacy lives on today.
Early in the 80s, I thought of MLK
Day as just one more three-day week-
end and paid scant attention to who
Dr. King was, or what he stood for. I
dont think this attitude is all that sur-
prising for someone who grew up here in San Mateo
County. Even now, my town of San Carlos is less than 1
percent black, San Mateo County is 3 percent black, and
California as a whole is only 6.6 percent black.
The out of sight, out of mind nature of the black
population here insulated me from the evils of segregat-
ed America and the oppression suffered by those denied
education, employment and the right to vote simply
because their ancestors hailed from Africa. That same
insulation sheltered me from the fact that the black
community that did exist in East Palo Alto was the result
of racist real estate covenants and sundown town
police action in Palo Alto and other Peninsula cities.
In the mid-90s, I moved to my birthplace,
Washington, D.C. There, through my church, I encoun-
tered some amazing people. These were people who had
no reason to befriend me, yet they did. These were peo-
ple with whom I had almost nothing in common, yet
they invited me into their homes and into their lives.
When I visited their homes, I would see in a place of
honor pictures of Martin Luther King. It was then that I
began to understand the importance of his struggle in a
personal way. No longer was Dr. King an abstract figure
of a vague dream from years ago. Instead, he was a real
person, with a real life, who had real meaning.
The power of his Christian vision of the beloved com-
munity is striking. It is a vision, in the words of
Kenneth Smith and Ira Zepp, of a completely integrated
society, a community of love and justice wherein broth-
erhood would be an actuality in all of social life ... such
a community would be the ideal corporate expression of
the Christian faith.
Dr. King knew that integration meant a change in atti-
tudes. Positive personal and social relationships require
more than legislating civil rights. They require a deep
understanding of the kingdom of God brought about by
the incarnation of Jesus and his radical love for all.
Once physical segregation was legally abolished, inte-
gration demanded reaching out across psychological
barriers of class, education and upbringing.
Thats what my friends did. They reached out across
those barriers. They arent theologians, or political
activists. They are just ordinary people who absorbed,
from church and community, the fundamental impor-
tance of reconciliation and redemption in ones life.
They understand that forgiveness does more for the for-
giver, by lifting a heavy psychological burden, than it
does for anyone else. They learned from Dr. King.
Because of Dr. Kings leadership in demanding civil
rights for all built on the foundation of the
Declaration of Independence and its expression in the
Constitution and legacy of radical Christian love, I
have friends and family I would not otherwise have.
Because of Dr. King, I have godsons and goddaughters,
nieces and nephews who enrich my life. For that, I am
deeply grateful.
But beyond one persons experience, Dr. Kings life
and work has touched millions. And for that, all of us as
Americans should be deeply grateful as well.

Big movers

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK Investors werent
impressed with the earnings news
from big U.S. companies Friday.
Intel slumped after giving a weak
revenue forecast and General Electric
dropped after its profit margins fell
short. Capital One also fell after the
banks earnings missed expecta-
t i ons.
The Standard & Poors 500 index
slipped 7.19 points, or 0.4 percent,
to 1,838.70. The Dow Jones industri-
al average rose 41.55 points, or 0.3
percent, to 16,458.56. The Nasdaq
composite fell 21.11 points, or 0.5
percent, to 4,197.58.
The S&P 500 index retreated from a
record high close on Wednesday. It
ended the week 0.5 percent lower and
continued its lackluster start to
January.
Still, many investors arent ready
to give up on the stock markets lat-
est rally, which capped an exception-
ally strong 2013 with a gain of
almost 10 percent in the final three
months of the year.
Markets dont go straight up to
the moon, said Doug Cote, chief
market strategist at ING Investment
Management. This flat-lining is the
market regrouping ... its a healthy
pause.
GE slumped 62 cents, or 2.3 per-
cent, to $26.58 after profit margi ns
in the companys industrial unit fell
short of its own targets.
Intel dropped 69 cents, or 2.6 per-
cent, to $25.85 after its first-quarter
revenue forecast disappointed Wall
Street. Intel said revenue would reach
$12.8 billion, plus or minus $500
million, less than analysts expected.
The earnings news on Friday wasnt
all bad.
American Express rose $3.19, or
3.6 percent, to $90.97 after the com-
pany said late Thursday that its net
income more than doubled in the
fourth quarter. Amex cardholders
boosted their spending and borrow-
ing during the holiday season. The
news also lifted Visa. The payment
companys stock climbed $10.41, or
4.7 percent, to $232.18.
The two companies are members of
the Dow and together boosted the
blue-chip index by 87 points.
Without them, the Dow would have
ended the day down.
Morgan Stanley also rose after
reporting earnings that beat fore-
casts. The banks stock climbed
$1.40, or 4.4 percent, to $33.40.
Investors were impressed by improv-
ing profitability at the banks wealth
management unit, and its pledge to
return more capital to shareholders in
the form of dividends and stock buy-
backs, said Shannon Stemm, an ana-
lyst at brokerage firm Edward Jones.
About 10 percent of the companies
in the S&P 500 have reported fourth-
quarter results so far. Despite the dis-
appointing earnings on Friday, prof-
its are still forecast to climb 5.3 per-
cent for the period to a record of
$27.76 a share, according to S&P
Capital IQ.
Thirteen more companies, includ-
ing Johnson & Johnson, Delta Air
Lines and International Business
Machines, will report earnings on
Tuesday.
The stock market is closed on
Monday for the Martin Luther King
Jr. Day holiday.
In government bond trading, the
yield on the 10-year note fell to 2.82
percent from 2.84 percent late
Thursday. In commodities trading,
the price of oil rose 41 cents to
$94.37 a barrel. Gold climbed
$11.70, or 0.9 percent, to $1,251 an
ounce.
Stocks mostly lower as earnings fall short

WASHINGTON U.S. employers adver-
tised more jobs in November and more
Americans quit, positive signs for millions
who are unemployed and looking for work.
The Labor Department said Friday that
job openings rose 1.8 percent to a season-
ally adjusted 4 million, the most in 5 1/2
years. And the number of people quitting
increased 1.9 percent to a seasonally adjust-
ed 2.4 million, a ve-year high.
Job openings havent topped 4 million
since March 2008, just a few months after
the Great Recession began. Openings at
that level are generally consistent with a
healthy job market.
And more workers quitting can also be a pos-
itive signal, because people usually quit when
they either have a new job typically for
more pay or are condent they can nd one.
The data suggest the competition for jobs
is getting a little bit easier. There were 2.7
unemployed workers for each available job
in November, down from 6.7 just after the
recession ended in July 2009. In a healthy
economy the ratio is roughly 2 to 1.
More job openings and quits suggest
greater opportunities for the unemployed.
But those positive trends havent recently
translated into additional hiring. Overall
hiring ticked up just 0.2 percent in
November to nearly 4.5 million.
The gures also follow a disappointing
report on December job growth. The gov-
ernment last week said employers added just
74,000 jobs in December. Thats the fewest
in three years and below an average gain of
214,000 in the previous three months.
The unemployment rate fell to 6.7 per-
cent, the lowest in more than ve years. But
the rate dropped mostly because more
Americans gave up looking for work. The
government counts people as unemployed
only if they are actively hunting for jobs.
Last weeks employment report shows net
payroll gains the number of people hired
minus those who were laid off, quit or
retired. Fridays report, known as the Job
Openings and Labor Turnover survey, pro-
vides more details.
For example, it shows the overall number
of people hired each month, rather than just
the net gain. Total hires reached 4.6 million
in September, a ve-year high, but hiring
has dipped since then.
In the past year, the number of job open-
ings has increased 5.6 percent. But total
hiring is only 1.7 percent higher.
U.S. employers advertise most jobs since March 2008
Slumping Intel to cut
more than 5,000 jobs in 2014
SAN FRANCISCO Intel plans to trim
more than 5,000 jobs from its workforce this
year in an effort to boost its earnings amid
waning demand for its personal computer
chips.
The Santa Clara company conrmed the
job cuts Friday, the day after Intel Corp.
reported its prot and revenue had fallen for
the second consecutive year.
The purge represents about 5 percent of the
roughly 108,000 jobs that Intel had on its
payroll at the end of December. The company
intends to jettison the jobs without laying
off workers, said Intel spokesman Bill
Calder. The reductions instead will be
achieved through attrition, buyouts and early
retirement offers.
Jos. A. Bank rejects
Mens Wearhouse $1.61B bid
Jos. A. Bank Clothier Inc. has rejected a
$1.61 billion takeover offer from rival
Mens Wearhouse.
The two mens clothing retailers have been
engaged in a strange courtship for months.
Jos. A. Bank made a bid for The Mens
Wearhouse Inc. last year that was rejected.
Mens Wearhouse then turned the tables
and made a bid for Jos. A. Bank that was
denied in December. It then raised the offer to
$57.50 per share from $55 per share. But
Jos. A. Bank said Friday that the offer is still
too low and not in the best interest of share-
holders.

DALLAS UPS may be forced to change
the way it plans for the holiday season after
December shipping problems took a bite
out of fourth-quarter earnings.
The company said Friday that it took
extraordinary steps to meet holiday
demand, including hiring 85,000 seasonal
employees 30,000 more than planned.
But the companys network of brown
trucks and planes was overwhelmed by
what it termed an unprecedented level of
online shopping including a surge of
last-minute orders. Bad weather and a
shorter shopping season were also fac-
tors, it said in a news release. Company
officials declined interview requests.
Analysts said the company will make
changes including higher last-minute prices
to smooth out the peak caused by the nal
rush of shopping just before Christmas.
Online shopping is good for UPS, as cus-
tomers count on delivery companies to get
those packages where they are supposed to
go on time. But volumes were so high last
month that hundreds of thousands of pack-
ages didnt get to their destinations before
Christmas UPS hasnt disclosed the exact
number. Amazon.com offered shipping-
charge refunds and a $20 credit for some cus-
tomers affected by UPS delays.
On Friday, UPS said that it delivered a
record 31 million packages on Dec. 23.
That peak, however, came six days later
than UPS had planned, and it was 7.5 per-
cent more packages than the company had
expected on the busiest day of the season.
Jim Corridore, an analyst with S&P
Capital IQ, suggested the company learned a
lesson.
We think UPS did a poor job forecasting
the holiday season, but we expect improved
readiness this year as online shopping con-
tinues to grow, he said in a note to clients.
Online shopping, he added, is a positive
trend, but UPS needs to do a better job capi-
talizing upon it.
Kevin Sterling, an analyst with BBT
Capital Markets, said UPS had to catch up
after icy weather delayed early-December
deliveries, only to get slammed by a wave of
late online shopping.

NEWYORK An email sent to the rough-
ly 70 million Target customers who may
have been affected by a pre-Christmas data
breach is causing panic among those who
fear it could be an attempt to victimize them
again.
Target says the email, which offers free
credit monitoring services to potential vic-
tims of the breach, is legitimate. But the
company has identied a handful of scam-
mers who are trying to take advantage of the
publics fear and confusion.
Consumers have been on edge since news
of the data breach broke last month. And
theyve been warned to be on alert for pos-
sible follow-up attacks that could come in
the form of phishing emails, electronic
messages designed to implant malicious
software on their computers or draw them to
websites that prompt them to enter person-
al information.
So when Targets email began circulating
earlier this week, many recipients ques-
tioned its authenticity. The email was espe-
cially suspicious to people who say they
havent set foot in a Target store in years.
Jim Reid, 60, of Minneapolis says he was
a little nervous about clicking on the link in
the email and he questioned whether it was a
good idea to send Target even more personal
information when they were unable to pro-
tect it in the rst place.
Theres too much uncertainty, Reid
says. They keep changing what theyre
saying about how many people were affect-
ed, about what kinds of information were
stolen. Its obvious that they really dont
know.

With Carlmont shooting guard Anisah
Smith struggling with her shot, the Menlo-

When Ilana Baer, a freshman making her

Aminute and 20 seconds later, Carlmonts

Our defensive intensity picked up in the

RENTON, Wash. Big, bad football
players dont get intimidated. Not by
noise, weather, statistics or hard hits.
Tell that to the two defenses about to
attempt to dominate the NFC champi-
onship game Sunday.
Or to the offenses, for that matter.
Seattle and San Francisco ranked rst and
third in points allowed this season. The
Seahawks (14-3) won the NFC West with
the stingiest defense in yardage yielded,
and the 49ers (14-4) were fth in that cate-
gory.
The Seahawks led the league in take-
aways (39), interceptions (28) and
turnover margin (plus-20), while the
Niners had a plus-12.
They did it with units that dont back
down ever. Physical, aggressive,
relentless. Choose your favorite term.
I think DBs playing physical is the way
football should be, Seahawks All-Pro cor-
nerback Richard Sherman said. A lot of
people want to see great offense. You see
great offense all the time, people running
through zones and guys not being able to
cover them.

It appears Rika Levi is trading his Bulldog
blue for some Texas Tech red.
Levi, the former South San Francisco
superstar and reigning California Defensive
Player of the Year for the College of San
Mateo football team, ended the suspense
Thursday when he verbally committed to
Texas Tech after two stellar seasons at CSM.
The 6-2, 350-pound defensive tackle is
expected to t right into the Raiders 3-4
defensive scheme and be a major contributor
on the defensive line. Levi had offers on the
table from Kentucky, Missouri and
Washington of the Pac-12.
He told me he was really excited about
playing at Texas Tech, said Tim Tulloch,
CSM assistant head coach and defensive
coordinator. Theyre going to use him as a
3-4 nose guard similarly to what we did. He
has the opportunity to go make an impact in
the Big 12 and a great opportunity to play a
couple years and go on to the NFL.
Levis dominance his sophomore season
at College Heights had very little to do with
his individual numbers. He recorded a mod-
est 25 tackles, 6.5 tackles for loss, three
sacks and two forced fumbles. But his con-
tributions to the Bulldogs were invaluable
as part of a defensive team that was near the
top of every statistical category in the
NorCal Conference and the state. Hence,
when it came down for the California
Community College Athletic Association
to choose its best defender, Levi was at the
top of list.
Hes great on and off the eld, Tulloch
said. Hes got so much passion for the
game. He loves playing football. Hes
explosive with his hands. Hes got unbe-
lievable power and athleticism for his size.
Theyre getting someone who is going
to be dominant on the football eld and hes
going to help change the locker room. Hes
going to help and create a championship
culture at Texas Tech. And thats the thing
coach [Kliff] Kingsbury was hoping for.
Every day we try to get better and hes
continuing to grow as a man. He established
himself as a leader of his team and everyone
wanted to work hard with him and get on the
eld with him and thats what made it so
special. He just does that in every aspect of
his life.
Levi made his ofcial trip to Texas Tech in
December and fell in love with the place,
according to Tulloch this after strong
suspicions oated around recruiting web-
sites that he was leaning toward
Washington of the Pac-12.
But, as recently as last Wednesday, Levi
began dropping strong hints on his Twitter
account and went nal with his commit-
ment: Just committed @RedRaiderSports
#GunzUp #RedRaiderNation
Levi joins an already strong transfer class
of Bulldogs that includes former Daily
Journal Athlete of the Year Trevor Kelly,
who committed to the University of
California at Berkeley. Other universities
adding Bulldogs to their rosters include
Alabama, Oregon and Washington State.
Tulloch said the next batch of commitments
will happen in February.
Last year was the best to date for CSM.
They had 32 players sign their transfer
papers to 4-year universities a record.

Sometimes in heavyweight basketball
confrontations, its the unusual suspects
that land the most important blows.
And that was the case Friday night at
Burlingame HIgh School as the Panthers
survived a furious second-half comeback by
Mills to come away with the 57-51 victory.
The Panthers led by as many as 14 points
on a couple of occasions before the Vikings
pulled to within three with less than half a
quarter of basketball to play.
But as was the case the entire night,
Burlingame relied on its supporting cast
during a couple of key stretches to thwart
Mills momentum.
A lot of the attention is to me and Nick
(Loew), said Burlingame guard Frankie
Ferrari, who nished with 11 points. I kind
of get a double (team), or different looks.
So, I just try to get everyone else involved
and they knocked down shots, thankfully.
By they, Ferrari is referring to Kevin
Abuyaghi, Bassel Mufarreh and Jack Larratt
all of whom had major contributions in
the game.
[Mills defensive] zone was tough, said
Burlingame head coach Pete Harames. You
have to work every single time down
because they extend it. There are a lot of
arms moving and you better hit your shots.
In the rst half, the Panthers had very lit-
tle trouble doing just that. Burlingame shot
almost 57 percent from the oor in the rst
16 minutes including 7 of 15 from beyond
the arc. Justin Gutang came out nice and hot
to start the contest and he fueled an early 8-
0 run that helped Burlingame to a 16-10 lead
after one quarter.
Mills picked up their offensive output in
the second quarter. After hitting just two

Giants agree to deals
with Blanco, Petit, Abreu
SAN FRANCISCO The Giants have
agreed to one-year deals with three of their ve
players in salary arbitration: outelder Gregor
Blanco, right-hander Yusmeiro Petit and
inelder Tony Abreu.
Blancos deal announced Friday is for
$2,525,000, Abreus is for $987,500 and
Petits is for $845,000.
First baseman Brandon Belt and inelder
Joaquin Arias remain in arbitration. Belt asked
for $3.6 million and the team offered $2.05
million; Arias is seeking $1.5 million to the
teams $1.1 million.
Blanco batted .265 with three home runs
and 41 RBIs last season. He has been a defen-
sive specialist since joining the Giants two
years ago, including making a diving catch to
preserve Matt Cains perfect game in 2012.
Petit went 4-1 with a 3.56 ERA in eight
games last season with San Francisco. Abreu
batted .268 with two home runs and 14 RBIs
in 53 games.
As agree to 1-year
deals with Lowrie, 3 others
OAKLAND The Oakland Athletics have
agreed to one-year contracts with four players
in arbitration: inelders Jed Lowrie and
Brandon Moss, outelder Craig Gentry and
reliever Luke Gregerson.
Gregersons deal announced Friday is worth
$5,065,000, Lowries is for $5.25 million,
Moss contract is for $4.1 million and
Gentrys is for $1,145,000.
The switch-hitting Lowrie batted .290 with
15 home runs and 75 RBIs last year. Moss hit
a team-leading 30 home runs and nished sec-
ond with 87 RBIs while hitting .256.
Gregerson was acquired from San Diego on
Dec. 3 for slugger Seth Smith after going 6-8
with four saves and a 2.71 ERA. And the As
got Gentry from Texas in a four-player trade on
Dec. 3 after he batted .280 with two home runs
and 22 RBIs.
The only Oakland player remaining in arbi-
tration is right elder Josh Reddick. He asked
for $3.25 million and the As offered $2 mil-
lion.
Scherzer, Tigers agree at $15,525,000
DETROIT ALCy Young Award winner has
agreed to a one-year contract with the Detroit
Tigers for $15,525,000, setting himself up
for an even bigger payday when he becomes

Local sports roundup
By Cliff Brunt
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
OKLAHOMACITY Kevin Durant scored
a career-high 54 points to help the
Oklahoma City Thunder beat the Golden
State Warriors 127-121 on Friday night.
Durant made 19 of 28 eld goals and 11 of
13 free throws in his third straight game
with at least 36 points.
Serge Ibaka had 21 points and eight
rebounds, Reggie Jackson scored 14 points
and Kendrick Perkins added 12 rebounds for
the Thunder (30-10), who won for the third
time in four games. Oklahoma City shot 58
percent from the eld and scored a season-
high point total.
Stephen Curry had 37 points and 11
assists and Klay Thompson added 26 points
for the Warriors (25-16), who shot 52 per-
cent but simply couldnt match up with
Durant.
Durant drained back-to-back 3-pointers
with Draymond Green in his face to give the
Thunder a 116-103 lead. He hit another 3
with 5:25 left to reach 50, and then, with
the crowd on its feet, made a turnaround
jumper to match his career high.
The crowd chanted M-V-P as he made two
foul shots with 2:45 remaining to establish
a new career best.
Oklahoma City led 39-32 at the end of the
first quarter after shooting 78.3 percent
from the eld. Even at the end of the period,
after Jeremy Lamb missed a fadeaway,
Steven Adams was there to tip it in with less
than a second remaining.
It was the most points the Thunder have
scored in a rst quarter this season and their
second-most for any quarter this season.
Golden State shot 57 percent from the eld
in the period, yet found itself barely hang-
ing on.
Golden State managed to stay with the
Thunder by kicking its offense into an even
higher gear, and a 3-pointer by Thompson
tied it at 48 midway through the second
quarter.
Oklahoma City created some distance at
the free-throw line to take a 71-65 lead at
the break. It was a season high for points in
a half for the Thunder.
Durant scores 54, Thunder hold off Warriors
Thunder 127, Warriors 121
who helped pick up the slack.
Since my shot wasnt falling, I decided to
work on other parts of the game, Smith
said.
In addition to her two dozen points, Smith
also came up with ve steals, a handful off
assists and two rebounds.
While Smith had a pair of baskets during
that 10-0 run in the third quarter, she also
set up her teammates. Cam Kondo started
the run by burying a jumper. Smith followed
with a pair of layups on a fastbreak and a
steal, then assisted on Kondo and Sophia
Paupusa buckets.
Were starting to trust our game more,
Smith said. Im trusting my teammates
because even if they dont catch (my pass),
theres always the next possession.
Given that Smith is the only senior on a
team that also features a pair of freshmen
and sophomores, that trust has taken a
while to build. But if the Scots can get con-
sistent points elsewhere, not only will it
take pressure off Smith, it was also make the
Scots a more potent team.
Smiths teammates definitely took the
pressure off of her in the second half. In the
rst two quarters, Smith scored 11 of the
Scots 19 rst-half points.
While Smith scored 13 in the second half,
her teammates chipped in with 30 over the
nal two periods. Kondo, a freshman, n-
ished with nine points and nine rebounds,
while Rachel Lum, a junior, added seven. In
all, nine players got in the scoring column
for Carlmont.
Its a growth process. [The rest of the
team] is playing with a lot more con-
dence, Mori said. Anisahs leadership has
been great in helping the other players.
After scoring 19 points in the rst half,
Carlmont exploded for 39 in the second
half.
M-A was led by Ilana Baers 12 points.
Natalie Fonseca added eight and pulled down
eight rebounds. Freshman Ofa Sili had six
points and six boards.
Despite the nal score, the game was
much closer in the rst half. The rst quarter
was a battle between Smith and M-As
Fonseca. Smith scored eight in the rst
quarter, while Fonseca went for six as the
Scots led 13-8 after one quarter.
The Bears scored the rst ve points of
the second period on a bucket from Ilana
Baer and a 3-pointer from Sarah Howell to
tie the game at 13. After Smith made 1 of 2
free throws to give the Scots a 14-13 lead,
Fonseca hit a pair from the charity stripe to
give M-A a 15-14 advantage one of two
times the Bears led in the game.
Carlmont responded with a Lum 3 and a
layup off a steal from Smith to retake the
lead for the Scots and they went into half-
time leading 19-17.
M-A stayed with Carlmont early in the
third quarter. Smith hit 1 of 2 free throws to
push the Scots lead to 20-17, but layups
from Sili and Erin Goode gave M-Aa 21-20
lead the Bears last lead of the game.
The Scots responded with an 8-1 run for a
28-22 lead. Ilana Baers bucket with 2:48 to
make the score 28-24, which would be as
close as the Bears would get the rest of the
way as they were held to just 21 second-half
points.

TRANSACTIONS
shots in the rst period, they were
7 of 12 from the oor in the sec-
ond quarter. But because
Burlingame stayed consistent, the
lead was up to 10 on a couple of
occasions. A big part of that was
Larratt, who scored eight of his 10
points in the second quarter,
including two buckets in the last
couple of seconds, that pushed
Burlingames lead to 13 come
recess.
We were able to get inside a lit-
tle bit, at the end of the rst half
and at the end of the third quarter,
Harames said.
Mills defense was the catalyst
for its rst run of the evening
that and Robert Noland started to
heat up.
Burlingame only got up 10
shots in the third quarter and, with
Tyler Wright dominating the
glass, Mills pushed, going on an
11-1 run to close the gap the
Panthers built behind Loews
tough work under the hoop and at
the free throw line.
Noland knocked down some
buckets and Marquis Adkins found
some offensive rhythm. Before
the period was over, Mills was
only down ve.
I wasnt surprised they made a
comeback, said Mills head coach
Rick Hanson. These kids have a
lot of ght in them.
I guess we didnt hit as many
shots and the ball movement was-
nt as good. I thought fouls
they were driving more on us,
Harames said of Mills run. I
thought our defense dropped off a
bit.
The entire fourth quarter was
tense, with Mills seemingly
always having the emotional
momentum. But for every one of
their big baskets, there was a play-
er like Abuyaghi and a big 3, or
Mufarreh, who had a couple of
massive hoops in the paint to
calm things down.
He played terrific, Harames
said of Mufarreh. Hes a factor. If
teams come in bigger, we can put
him in.
The Vikings had one more run in
them. Nolands drive to the hoop
made it a three-point game, but he
missed the free throw and from the
27-second mark on, Burlingame
added some freebies to ice the win.
Just momentum swings,
Ferrari said about the difference in
the game. Theyre part of the
game. Fortunately, we were able to
hit key shots down the stretch and
that propelled us to the win.
The Panthers improve to 4-0 in
league while Mills is now 2-2.

We stand up there and have a dog ght
every play. You know, there are going to be
some pushing-offs and grabbing here and
there, and that is the game of football.
Thats how it is. Thats how its always
been.
Pointing to the Seattle secondary for
instilling trepidation in opponents is a nat-
ural place to start. They specialize in tight
coverage and rugged tackling. They dont
back down.
Our aggression, our intensity is the same
as its been, Sherman said as he looked
ahead to a third meeting with their division
counterpart in what has become a tense and
bitter rivalry. In practice, our practices
now are the same as theyve been. Weve
been going 100 percent, competing, com-
peting, and nothing has changed. We have
the most intense competitors out there, and
that is showing on the practice eld, and it
shows up on game day.
As it does with the 49ers. For every
Sherman, Kam Chancellor, Bobby Wagner
and Michael Bennett in Seattle, there are
Patrick Willis, NaVorro Bowman, Donte
Whitner and Justin Smith in San Francisco.
And more. Everywhere.
You have to be physical, you want to
make them think about you out there, said
Whitner, who considered changing his
name to Hitner last year. Thats an impor-
tant part of the game.
It works both ways, too. Bowman, an All-
Pro linebacker, revels in the physicality of
Anquan Boldin, the veteran receiver who
joined the 49ers this season. Boldin is
among the toughest players at his position
in the NFL.
Make that one of the toughest at any posi-
tion, offense or defense.
Him making the big plays for us when we
need it, understanding where the stick is
when hes catching the ball, all those
things, Bowman says in praising Boldin,
who helped beat the 49ers in last seasons
Super Bowl while he was a Ravens wideout.
And intimidating those cornerbacks. Hes
so strong that corners understand that, so
they back off on him and just try to make
that tackle. But he just does a great job with
just making big plays for us.
Any meetings on the eld Sunday between
Sherman and Chancellor against Boldin
could be epic. They surely will make high-
light reels the way NASCAR crashes tend
t o.
Yet Pete Carroll, whose coaching style
always has leaned toward the assertive he
made his mark as a defensive coordinator
whose units attacked to the whistle does-
nt quite buy the intimidation label, even if
some of his players do.
Thats a word I would not go to, he said
Friday. It does not seem like it ts, to me.
There are a bunch of guys on this football
team and that football team who are very
serious about playing good ball on
defense.
And serious about letting offensive play-
ers know who is boss.
Ask Kam Chancellor, Seahawks receiv-
er Doug Baldwin said of the safety he often
practices against. I would say yes to some
degree, some players get intimidated, some
dont. I always tell Kam if he ever tried to
mess with me Ill punch him in the mouth. I
dont take to intimidation very well.
There are other ways of putting fear or
at least hesitation in an opponent, any-
way.
Baldwins fellow wideout in Seattle,
Golden Tate, stresses performance.
Intimidation comes from what you lay
out there for them to see on lm, what you
do on the eld, he said. I think my play
jumping for catches, going across the mid-
dle, catching the ball in the end zone, break-
ing a punt return with the guys blocking for
me up front and backing it up by making
more plays, thats what can be intimidat-
ing.

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. Embarrassing headlines. Sidelined
superstars. Retooled offenses. Shredded defenses. Its a won-
der the New England Patriots and Denver Broncos made it this
far.
Bill Belichicks smarts and Tom Bradys tenacity always
seems to trump tribulation.
This season, they brushed aside the Tim Tebow distraction
and overcame Aaron Hernandezs arrest and the losses of Rob
Gronkowski, Wes Welker, Vince Wilfork and Jerod Mayo to
put the Patriots (13-4) into the AFC championship for the
third straight year.
Im sure every team is probably at this point overcome a
lot, Brady said. I know Denver has done a lot of those
things, too. Theyve overcome a lot of things and injuries and
so forth. Its just part of the NFLfootball season.
To get out there and play 16 weeks and
really see where you stand at the end of
those 16 weeks, getting to the playoffs,
play the best teams and see if you can
advance. Its certainly not easy to do. Its
very challenging.
Nobody does it better than Brady and
Belichick, the best quarterback/coach
combo in history with a record 18 playoff
wins.
After last years stumble against
Baltimore in the playoffs, John Fox and
Peyton Manning also steered the Broncos
(14-3) through a mineeld to send Denver
to its rst conference championship in
eight years.
That shock of what happened against
the Ravens contributed to this team being
able to be as exible as it has been and
survive the adversity that its gone
through, said Hall of Fame quarterback
John Elway, who led the Broncos to back-to-back Super
Bowls in the late 1990s and now leads them from the front
ofce instead of the huddle.
After losing Elvis Dumervil in the infamous fax asco when
his renegotiated contract didnt reach team headquarters in
time, Elway hit the jackpot in free agency by signing Welker
and Louis Vasquez on offense and Shaun Phillips, Terrance
Knighton and Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie on defense.
They helped the Broncos weather an injury epidemic that
claimed Von Miller, Kevin Vickerson, Rahim Moore, Derek
Wolfe and Chris Harris while rendering captains Champ
Bailey and Wesley Woodyard backups for most of the season.
Fox overcame his own heart operation that sidelined him
for a month and even a player quitting on him at midseason,
and Manning set a slew of records, including throwing for 55
TDs and 5,447 yards, to help the Broncos become the rst
600-point team in league history.
The Broncos did it despite losing exceptional blindside pro-
tector Ryan Clady in Week 2 and being anchored by a con-
verted guard who hadnt played a full season at center in 14
years.
So, Manning sits just one win shy of returning to the Super
Bowl just two years after he was jettisoned by the
Indianapolis Colts following four neck surgeries that
strengthened his resolve but weakened his throwing arm.
You dont take it for granted, Manning said, especially
when youve been through an injury, been through a major
change and youre in the home stretch of your career.

of the edtech company. And to spread
whats happening to classrooms.
Borg, 27, and his company have had a
good last few years. In 2012, Edmodo
raised $25 million, bringing Edmodos
total funding raised to $57 million.
Founded in 2008, Edmodo is free and pro-
vides teachers, administrators, parents and
students a secure place to connect and col-
laborate, share and compare content and
educational applications, and access home-
work, grades, tests, class discussions and
notications. Edmodo also offers a plat-
form for app developers. There are now
about 600 apps from which the company
takes a revenue share.
Im always extremely excited and
amazed by how theyre (teachers) spreading
it to other teachers, said Borg, who grew
up in the Midwest and is married.
The company is growing, both in terms
of user base and employees, and recently
moved from downtown San Mateo to a
48,370-square-foot space at the newly
developed ofce spaces at 1200 Park Place
in San Mateo. There are now more than 30
million teachers and students who use the
platform in about 190 countries. Edmodos
goal is to help educators use social media to
customize the classroom for each and every
learner.
San Mateo is the perfect spot to attract
talent from San Jose and San Francisco,
said Borg who lives in Foster City. We
loved the atmosphere here. There are a lot
of options for going out to lunch.
Edmodo is different from other edtech
startups since it works at a much larger
scale than others.
They were all lonely islands, he said.
Ours is very teacher-centric and we want to
get teachers working on the same things
connected. That all comes from getting a
very large network.
Edmodo is what brought Borg, who has a
computer science and education back-
ground, out to California in the rst place.
Borg met his co-founder Jeff OHara
through OHaras wife, who taught at the
same school Borg worked at and was also
his high school biology teacher. The two
co-founders decided they wanted to build
projects to help students and teachers. Borg
also has an education background, as his
father worked in universities and his mom
taught as well.
Seeing how connected everyone was
outside of the classroom and how you got
back into the past when you go in, he said.
We wanted to help them see how they can
engage students and share what content is
effective.
Edmodo has helped Borg for his personal
growth, he said.
Edmodos been my graduate school, he
said.
With the shift to Common Core standards
in California and 44 other states, there will
be more project-based and team collabora-
tive learning in schools. There is also the
new Smarter Balance testing, which aligns
with these new standards, that will go into
effect during the 2014-15 school year.
Were focused on providing tools teach-
ers need to best leverage the transition, he
said. Its an opportunity for us to help.
For now, the company is focused on
unlocking of the power of the worlds
largest learning network. Borg wants
teachers to be able to turn feedback from
one another into actionable items.
People have a real belief that moving
the needle in K-12 education makes soci-
etys problems so much easier, he said.

Ban Ki-moon says four U.N.
personnel killed in Kabul attack
UNITED NATIONS Secretary-General
Ban Ki-moon says four United Nations per-
sonnel have been killed in the horric
attack on a Kabul restaurant.
Ofcials say a suicide bomber blew him-
self up outside a Kabul restaurant lled with
foreigners and afuent Afghans having din-
ner Friday night, while two gunmen sneaked
in through the back door and opened re.
The U.N. chief condemned Fridays attack
in the strongest terms, saying such tar-
geted attacks against civilians are com-
pletely unacceptable and are in flagrant
breach of international humanitarian law,
U.N. deputy spokesman Farhan Haq said.
Ban said the U.N. per-
sonnel, who were not
identied, were among at
least 14 foreigners and
Afghans killed, including
a number of people from
other international
organizations. Kabul
police say 16 people
were killed.
Ban demanded an
immediate end to the attacks.
Pope defrocked 400
priests in two years
VATICAN CITY In his last two years as
pope, Benedict XVI defrocked nearly 400
priests for raping and molesting children,
more than twice as many as the two years
that preceded a 2010 explosion of sex abuse
cases in Europe and beyond, according to a
document obtained Friday by the Associated
Press and an analysis of Vatican statistics.
The data 260 priests defrocked in 2011
and 124 in 2012, a total of 384 repre-
sented a dramatic increase over the 171
priests defrocked in 2008 and 2009.
It was the rst compilation of the number
of priests forcibly removed for sex abuse by
the Vaticans in-house procedures and a
canon lawyer said the real gure is likely far
higher, since the numbers dont include sen-
tences meted out by
diocesan courts.
The spike started a year
after the Vatican decided
to double the statute of
limitations on the crime,
enabling victims who
were in their late 30s to
report abuse committed
against them when they
were children.
The Vatican has actually made some data
public year by year in its annual reports.
But an internal Vatican document prepared
to help the Holy See defend itself before a
U.N. committee this week in Geneva com-
piled the statistics over the course of sever-
al years.

apartment building, causing signicant
damage, Palisi said.
The displaced residents who lived in the
building received aid from the American
Red Cross, he said.
One reghter injured his hand but there
were no other injuries, according to city
ofcials.
Damage to the machine shop was exten-
sive, including the collapse of the build-
ings roof, Palisi said.
The re also spread to three nearby indus-
trial businesses, he said.
All streets within a one-block radius of
the re remained closed to trafc late into
the morning, city spokeswoman Sheri
Costa-Batis said.
The San Mateo County Health System
advised residents to stay indoors during the
blaze to avoid exposure to smoke.
An inspector from the Bay Area Air
Quality Management District was at the
scene of the re for most of the morning to
monitor the air quality in the area, district
spokesman Tom Flannigan said.
San Mateo County is a boundary drop
county, meaning that when a re occurs, re
departments from across the County are
called to assist. Redwood City reghters
were the rst to arrive on scene as Redwood
City has the closest re station to the FMW
Machine Shop.
For Redwood City to endure four res
since the summer of 2013, and now a fth
in unincorporated San Mateo County is
hard to come to terms with, said Redwood
City Manager Bob Bell.
We know the area, especially in this dry
weather, is seeing a lot of fires, but our
community definitely feels overbur-
dened.
With several recent arson res in Santa
Clara County, the city has received ques-
tions about links between res and suspi-
cious activity. However, Redwood City Fire
Chief Jim Skinner said there is no reason to
believe the fires from the past several
months are linked in any way.
Based on California state law, buildings
built before 1980 are not required to have
sprinklers. The building in Fridays blaze
did not have re sprinklers and its owners
were not required to install them, according
to city ofcials.

Benedict XVI Ban Ki-moon

O
K. So its here. The nal semester
of high school. Ever. And let me
just say, for the record, that
senioritis is not some made-up thing that
people use to justify the certain degree of
slacking off that happens; its very much
real. Though it is only
my second week back, I
can see the early signs
of a shorter attention
span in class and an
overall lack of detail
when it comes to study-
ing and doing homework
assignments. I dont
even feel like I have
fully come back to school yet.
All in all, its pretty great.
I had the great experience of falling real-
ly sick on the last few days of winter break,
and had to miss a couple of days of school
last week. Under normal circumstances, i.e.
any other semester of high school, I would
have roughed out those days by taking
Claritin and Advil to control my symp-
toms.
As a second semester senior, I was able to
miss those days and have a complete recov-
ery, without the strain of worrying about
having my grades slip.
Another awesome perk of being in the
last semester of high school is the ability
to do everything I missed doing for the last
four years, when my primary concern was
maintaining my grades.
For example, as soon as my last set of
nals nished last month, I literally went
crazy with catching up on my favorite TV
shows and spent so much time as a volun-
teer gift wrapper at the mall, something
which I love to do, but was not really able
to spend much time in years past. And, for
the rst time, I actually visited Union
Square during the holiday season with
friends. That was pretty great just roam-
ing around Macys and sipping peppermint
hot chocolate.
Now, I also get to focus on those things
that I, unfortunately, had to put on the back
burner during the college application
process, like my musical training. I get to
spend more time singing and dancing
Indian classical music and dance and per-
form more.

NEWYORK Hollywood may be hoping
for a little less drama in 2014.
2013 was a tale of two cinemas.
Blockbusters like The Lone Ranger and
After Earth opped spectacularly while
many in the industry (including Steven
Spielberg) bemoaned the increasingly com-
mercial trajectory of the studios. And yet by
the end of the year, Hollywood had set a
record with nearly $11 billion in revenue,
while critics hailed the years crop from
Gravity to 12 Years a Slave to Inside
Llewyn Davis as one of the best in
years.
The movie business remains, as ever, an
incomprehensible Jekyll and Hyde act of up
and down, hit and bomb.
How will 2014 unfold? The plot, at least,
will be unchanged. However much some
would like to see a new rhythm to
Hollywoods seasonal cycle, the year will
move to the familiar pattern of sketchy
spring releases, summer superhero block-
busters and fall awards-contenders.
Here are 10 things to look for at the
movies in 2014:
STELLAR SCI-FI
Anticipation runs especially high for
Interstellar (Nov. 7), Christopher Nolans
deep space travel adventure starring
Matthew McConaughey. Nolan, the director
of Inception and The Dark Knight, is
one of few directors whose name alone
makes fanboys salivate. His imprimatur
promises a cinematic experience (he likes
to shoot with IMAX cameras) that few today
can match. Nolans name also looms large
in Transcendence (April 18), which he
produced. The articial intelligence tale,
starring Johnny Depp and Rebecca Hall, is
the directorial debut of Nolans longtime
cinematographer Wally Pster. Other sci-
ence-fiction entries in 2014 include a
reboot of Robocop (Feb. 12), a futuristic,
time-traveling war lm with Tom Cruise;
Edge of Tomorrow (June 6), the
Wachowskis latest fantasy oddity, Jupiter
Ascending (July 18); and Ryan Goslings
directorial debut How to Catch a Monster
(no date yet), a less effect-heavy domestic
drama that tunnels into an underwater realm.
HOLD-OVERS FROM 2013
This year will benet from last years
unusually good leftovers. George
Clooneys World War II art rescue tale The
Monuments Men will open Feb. 7 after
being delayed from December. James Greys
Ellis Island drama The Immigrant (undat-
ed), starring Joaquin Phoenix and Marion
Cottilard, could emerge as an Oscar dark
horse after earning acclaim on the festival
circuit. Bennett Millers Foxcatcher, fea-
turing a dark turn from Steve Carell, will
bow sometime in 2014. Grace of

Jack Ryan a reboot
of Patriot Games
By Jake Coyle
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Having clung to the Russians as go-to villains long
after the Cold War thawed, the movies nd themselves
current again with their favorite arch-enemy.
Cooling Russo-American relations have yielded
an opening for the return of Tom Clancys CIA
analyst, just in time for the Sochi Olympics. In
the Jack Ryan reboot, Jack Ryan: Shadow
Recruit, Chris Pine takes over as the spy
who was played by Alec Baldwin (The
Hunt for Red October), Harrison Ford
(Patriot Games, Clear and Present
Danger) and Ben Afeck (The Sum of
All Fears).
Its a decent legacy of a dark-haired,

And now for the potentially biggest
advantage to being a senior: I nally
get to be an outdoor ed counselor!
Ever since I was a camper at outdoor
ed in the fth-grade, all I wanted was
to be able to come back as a coun-
selor.
I potentially had the option of
doing this my junior year, but the
prospect of missing an entire week of
school, especially at a time when the
makeup work would have literally
killed me was just not appealing. And
while skipping a week of school is
still not ideal, I have much more
bandwidth to do it this semester.
I have so many fond memories of
going to Pebble Beach and taking the
Night Hike, so I look forward to see-
ing the camp counselors experience.
Call me crazy, but I still remember
the camp songs and my cabins spirit
songs.
Of course, I do have to acknowledge
that we seniors obviously still have
to maintain a certain degree of respect
toward our classes and grades. While
colleges dont accept you based on
your second semester senior year
grades, you dont want to risk letting
your grades drop so low that you get
prevented from graduating.
But enough of that. I think I can say
that we can all be OK if we maintain a
work ethic. But this is what we have
been waiting for, for four years!
So while we start the countdown to
Graduation Day, I am going to cram in
as many fun and amazing experiences
as I can, by which I will remember my
high school life.

Kelly, opens March 14. The schedule for 2014 will doubt-
less contain its own shifts, too. The seventh Fast &
Furious film, planned for July, was moved to 2015 fol-
lowing the death of star Paul Walker in November.
MARVELs EXPANDING UNIVERSE
Marvels world domination continues with Captain
America: The Winter Soldier (April 4), The Amazing
Spider-Man 2 (May 2), X-Men: Days of Future Past
(May 23) and Guardians of the Galaxy (Aug. 1). The
last, the lone non-sequel, represents Marvels reach for
another ensemble team-up film, and, with a cast including
Chris Pratt and Bradley Cooper, perhaps something a lit-
tle different than its usual output.
MUSICALS SING AGAIN
Though 2013 contained no major live-action musical,
several are coming this year. Clint Eastwood, of all peo-
ple, directs the screen adaptation of the hit production
about Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons in Jersey Boys
(June 20). Annie (Dec. 19), produced by Will Smith and
Jay Z, will get a contemporary update with Beasts of the
Southern Wild star Quvenzhane Wallis as the titular
orphan. Rob Marshall (Chicago) will transfer James
Lapine and Steven Sondheims Grimm fable Into the
Woods to the big screen (Dec. 25), with Meryl Streep as
the Witch and Depp as the Big Bad Wolf. The Muppets,
too, will be back in Muppets Most Wanted (March 21),
a caper where Jim Hensons furry troupe travels to Europe.
And not yet dated is John Carneys Once follow-up,
Can a Song Save Your Life? a similarly naturalistic
musical starring Keira Knightley as an aspiring singer
and Mark Ruffalo as a record producer.
SURE BETS FROM VETERAN HANDS
Paul Thomas Anderson (There Will Be Blood, The
Master) releases have become the highlight of many a
movie buffs year. His Inherent Vice (not yet dated),
adapted from Thomas Pynchons novel and starring
Phoenix, continues the directors series of California-set
films. Also hotly anticipated is David Finchers version
of Gillian Flynns best-selling thriller, Gone Girl (Oct.
3), starring Ben Affleck. Other directors to watch in 2014
include Wes Anderson (The Grand Budapest Hotel,
March 7), Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu (Birdman, undat-
ed), Woody Allen (Magic in the Moonlight, undated)
and Tim Burton (Big Eyes, undated). Terrence Malicks
latest is also expected this year, though little is ever cer-
tain with The Tree of Life director.
BEARDED MEN OF THE BIBLE
This year will boast not just a Noah, but also a Moses.
First will come Darren Aronofskys Noah (March 28),
starring Russell Crowe and a very big boat. Ridley Scott
will follow on Dec. 12 with Exodus, starring Christian
Bale as Moses. Greek mythology will also double up in
2014 with two Hercules movies. The demigod will be
played by Dwayne Johnson in Brett Ratners Hercules
(July 25) and by Kellan Lutz in The Legend of Hercules
(out Friday). More Greek warfare comes with the sequel
300: Rise of an Empire (March 7).
SEQUELS, REMAKES
AND, AT LAST, A FINAL HOBBIT
Naturally, 2014 boasts a boatload of sequels and
remakes including Godzilla (May 16), The Hunger
Games: Mockingjay, Part 1 (Nov. 21), Transformers:
Age of Extinction (June 27), Dawn of the Planet of the
Apes (July 11), 22 Jump Street (June 13), The
Expendables 3 (Aug. 15) and How to Train Your Dragon
2 (June 13). Peter Jackson will finally close out his life-
time with J.R.R. Tolkien with his final Hobbit install-
ment: The Hobbit: There and Back Again (Dec. 17).
Other franchise expansions include The Lego Movie
(Feb. 7), Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (Aug. 8) and
Veronica Mars (March 14), the cult TV show propelled
to the big screen by a crowd-funding campaign on
Kickstarter.
THAT WAS NOT THE END
Co-directors Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg will quick-
ly follow up their 2013 hit This Is the End with The
Interview (Oct. 10), a comedy starring James Franco as a
talk-show host caught up in an assassination plot. Rogen
also stars with Zac Efron in Neighbors (May 9), by
Forgetting Sarah Marshall director Nicholas Stoller,
about a young family living next to a frat house. The
2014 comedy lineup also includes Dumb and Dumber To
(Nov. 14), with Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels; the one-
night-stand comedy Walk of Shame (April 25) with
Elizabeth Banks; Sex Tape (Aug. 1) with Cameron Diaz;
the spelling bee farce Bad Words (March 14), directed
by and starring Jason Bateman; Seth MacFarlanes comic
Western A Million Ways to Die in the West (May 30);
and the road trip comedy Tammy (July 2) with Melissa
McCarthy, directed by her husband, Ben Falcone.
JOLIES RETURN
Angelina Jolie hasnt starred in a live-action film since
2010s forgettable The Tourist, but shell be a large
presence in 2014. She stars as the title villain in
Maleficent (May 30), the twisted Sleeping Beauty
tale. She also directs her second feature in Unbroken
(Dec. 25), a World War II prisoner-of-war drama co-script-
ed by Joel and Ethan Coen. Jolies famous companion,
Brad Pitt, stars in a WWII story of his own, Fury (Nov.
14), about an American tank crew in Nazi Germany.
HUNTING THE HUNGER GAMES
The competition is thick for the next hit young-adult
franchise. Among the films looking to draw teenage audi-
ences with stories from popular young-adult novels are:
the post-apocalyptic Divergent (March 21); the high-
school vampire fantasy Vampire Academy: Blood
Sisters (Feb. 14); and the sci-fi dystopia The Maze
Runner (Sept. 19). May the odds be ever in your favor.

GEORGE BERNARD SHAWS
MAJOR BARBARA AT AMERICAN
CONSERVATORY THEATER RAISES
TIMELESS QUESTIONS OF MONEY
AND MORALS. Should a charity accept
money from questionable sources in order to
fund programs that benet the poor? In
George Bernard Shaws 1905 play Major
Barbara, young and idealistic Barbara
Undershaft has joined the Salvation Army to
help the downtrodden. When her wealthy
father offers a large contribution, Barbara
rejects the money because it represents prof-
its from his armaments factory. Her churchs
decision to accept his donation forces
Barbara, along with her friends and family,
to wrestle with the economic realities of the
cost of doing good. The pros and cons are
lobbed back and forth in elegant, fast-paced
and often very funny verbal volleys.
Directed by Dennis Garnhum. Two hours and
40 minutes with a 15-minute intermission.
Through Feb. 2.
OH, AND DID YOU KNOW?: In his
1906 Preface to Major Barbara: First Aid to
Critics, playwright Shaw said: On the point
that the Army ought not to take such money,
its justication is obvious. It must take the
money because it cannot exist without
money, and there is no other money to be
had. Practically all the spare money in the
country consists of a mass of rent, interest
and prot, every penny of which is bound up
with crime, drink, prostitution, disease and
all the evil fruits of poverty, as inextricably
as with enterprise, wealth, commercial pro-
bity and national prosperity. The notion
that you can earmark certain coins as tainted
is an unpractical individualist superstition.
None the less the fact that all our money is
tainted gives a very severe shock to earnest
young souls when some dramatic instance of
the taint rst makes them conscious of it.
AN ASIDE: A.C.T. Artistic Director
Carey Perloff said: As I was planning the
season and wrestling with the enormous
conicts in this country around guns, vio-
lence and money, it suddenly seemed an
urgent time to revisit Shaws visionary
Major Barbara. I can think of no other play
that so brilliantly explores the uneasy rela-
tionship between ill-gotten gains and cor-
porate philanthropy, as Undershaft tries to
appease his passionate daughter Barbara by
paying for her good deed with gunpowder
prots.

intellectual action hero. Ryan is a naviga-
tor of murky, reasonably realistic, interna-
tional espionage worlds. He has neither
James Bonds preternatural suavity nor
Jason Bournes visceral butt-kicking
skills, but instead anxiously finds his way
with patriotic cunning.
Shadow Recruit, which was scripted
without a Clancy book by Adam Cozad and
David Koepp, tells a new backstory for
Ryan. Inspired by Sept. 11, he joins the
Marines and is heroically injured in
Afghanistan. During his recovery, he
meets his eventual fiancee (a doctor named
Cathy played by Keira Knightley) and is
lured to the CIA by a mysterious recruiter
(Kevin Costner, unconvincingly trying to
exude a Donald Sutherland-like gravitas).
Hes covertly embedded at a Wall Street
bank where he uncovers a Russian plot to
buy up U.S. Treasury bonds, which he sus-
pects will be sold off in a coordinated act
of terrorism and currency devaluation.
Surely, if Ronald Reagan (whose endorse-
ment of Clancys first novel, The Hunt for
Red October, propelled his fame) was still
around, hed swoon over a spy thriller
based on the harrowing threat of inflation.
Ryans investigation leads him to the
Russian oligarch Viktor Cherevin, played
by Kenneth Branagh, who also directed the
film. Certainly, it takes a bite out of the
nationalistic politics when the movies
villain is played by a knighted British
actor known for his Shakespeare work.
Branagh endows his film with (mostly)
old-fashioned competency something
often lacking in todays action films
but little to distinguish it from superior
thrillers that have come before. The best
thing here is the sleekness of modern
Moscow, where much of the action takes
place. The film is filled with a nighttime
mix of neon and taillights set against the
Kremlin and other monuments a hand-
some enough rendering to send a viewer
back to the recent Bond, Skyfall, for
those elegant Shanghai scenes.
But Shadow Recruit is also disappoint-
ingly formulaic, relying on the familiar
set piece-driven story of an implausible
heist and a time-bomb finale. Knightley is
too strong a force for this girlfriend role.
And when the global scheme is figured out
in a minute with a bank of computer-
searching analysts, one foresees the obso-
lescence of the action film: sprawling
plots undone with a few keystrokes.
Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit is perhaps
most significantly a test for Pine as a
movie star. Early in the film, when Ryan is
forced to defend his life in a hotel room
battle, he ably depicts the shock and hor-
ror of a man encountering such a circum-
stance for the first time.
But Pine also fails to make his Jack
Ryan more than an afterthought to
Baldwins know-it-all or Fords reluctant
hero. As Costners character says, he too
much resembles a Boy Scout on a field
trip.
One unlikely cameo should be noted:
New Yorks famed repertory art-house the-
ater, the Film Forum, appears early in the
movie when Ryan swaps information at a
screening of Sorry, Wrong Number. At
least in Shadow Recruit, the interior has
finally been upgraded to plush stadium
seating.
Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit, a
Paramount Pictures release, is rated PG-13
by the Motion Picture Association of
America for sequences of violence and
intense action, and brief language.
Running time: 105 minutes. Two stars out
of four.

like reruns throughout the year.
Reservoir levels in the north and
central parts of the state were more
depleted than in Southern California,
but Brown still asked Los Angeles to
do its part to conserve and gave a
nod to the politics of water in the vast
state.
The drought accentuates and further
displays the conicts between north
and south and between urban and rural
parts of the state. So, as governor, Ill
be doing my part to bring people
together and working through this.
Farmers and ranchers in the nations
No. 1 farm state already are making
hard choices to conserve. Some cities
are in danger of running out of water.
And the rst snow survey of the winter
found more bare ground than fluffy
white stuff a key barometer of future
supply.
I am a fth-generation cattle ranch-
er, and it has never been this bad ever
in my lifetime and from my fami-
lys history, its never been anywhere
close to this bad ever, said Kevin
Kester, 58. He said his familys
records show the areas worst drought
previously was in the 1890s.
Kesters Central California ranch
normally gets 20 inches of rain
between October and April. Its gotten
about a half-inch of precipitation
since late fall. His cattle usually graze
on lush green hillsides in winter. Now,
theyre eating hay instead a propo-
sition that is too expensive to contin-
ue for long.
I hope its something we can tell
our great-grandkids about, but right
now were just trying to gure out how
were going to survive, he said.
The drought doesnt bode well for
Californias notorious wildfire sea-
son, either.
Previous super-dry years led to cata-
strophic wildre seasons in California
in 2003 and 2007, said Tom Scott, a
natural resources specialist with the
University of California system. Fire
crews beat back a wildre northeast of
Los Angeles earlier this week, but it
was a stark reminder of the dry and
dangerous conditions.
People say that the re season is
starting early, but I guess you could
say it never ended, Scott said. If you
live in the backcountry, come July
you probably should be thinking
about putting your valuables in stor-
age.
Droughts also are persisting or
intensifying elsewhere in the U.S.
On Wednesday, federal ofcials said
they were designating portions of
Colorado, New Mexico, Nevada,
Kansas, Texas, Utah, Arkansas,
Hawaii, Idaho, Oklahoma and
California as primary natural disaster
areas, highlighting the financial
strain facing farmers in those regions.
Even in the moist Pacic Northwest,
things were a little bit drier.
In Seattle, rainfall dropped by near-
ly 70 percent in December, with just
1.66 inches falling. Ski resorts are
opening several weeks late, and a
Bavarian-themed town in the Cascade
Mountains had to modify its annual
ice fest because there isnt enough
snow on the ground for activities. A
plan to truck in snow was scrapped
with high temperatures forecast this
weekend.
And despite heavy flooding in
Colorado in September, large portions
of Colorado and Wyoming are abnor-
mally dry, while ranchers on the
plains of southeastern Colorado have
severe drought conditions.
In California, the governors
drought declaration will help battle
unemployment in the agriculture
industry as elds are left fallow.
Nearly 10,000 people lost their
jobs during the last drought in 2009,
said Karen Ross, Californias agricul-
ture secretary. The drought also
increases the burden on food banks in
rural and agricultural communities.
The lack of rain also could have
long-standing implications for the
demand for crops that are almost
entirely exclusive to California.
Eighty percent of the worlds
almonds, for example, are grown in
California, and the Almond Board of
California receives 3 cents for every
pound sold to build future demand for
the nut. With many almond growers
having to irrigate their crops three
months early, a smaller crop might
put a dent in the boards ability to mar-
ket almonds as broadly as it has been,
said David Phippen, an almond grower
who serves on the board.
Theres huge implications every-
where you look, he said. What about
ve years down the road?

DROUGHT
that had been carefully measured in
Paris so the architect could incorporate
them into his design without altering
their historic proportions and a
kitchen with white glass tiling. There
is also a large wood library, which
holds 10,000 volumes. The yellow
salon is Louis XVI style with a view of
the large outside garden.
The 56-minute movie, lmed in 19
days, also documents how the French-
style chateau wasnt always so grand at
times. The home suffered through
years of decline as owners couldnt
keep up with the mantienance costs
and nearly bankrupted the heiress and
subsequent owners. The heiress closed
the house in 1918 after only living in
the chateau for two years. Next, the
home became dilapidated until a count-
ess purchased it in 1950 to save it from
demolition by promoters. It deteriorat-
ed once again when the countess was
unable to maintain it. During the next
decline, a pornographic lm was made
on the premises. Then, in 1985, a care-
taker sexually assaulted and stabbed
two teenage girls he had given a tour of
the house to while he was on duty. One
ultimately died from her wounds. In
1989, the Loma Prieta earthquake
struck the home. After the home was
used as a designer showcase home, the
Johnson family took it upon them-
selves to restore the mansion.
It was a sleeping beauty, said
Carolands historian Paul Price. Its as
if the Titanic were reoated in perfect
condition. The house was her (Pullman
Carolans) pride and joy. There is a
great deal of misinformation about
this house partly because she only
lived here from 1916-18.
On Jan. 1, the home officially
became preserved as a public nonprof-
it foundation. There have been very
few times for the public to access the
home and since it is now a public non-
prot, there is a chance there could be
public docent led tours. There also
needs to be logistics for security, said
historian Allen Deering.
They wouldnt want to open it up to
a bus, he said. Why wouldnt you
want to show people such a jewel
though?
One other lm has been made about
the mansion called Three Women and
a Chateau.
The new lm premiers 7 p.m. Jan. 19
on KQED 9. The lm was made in asso-
ciation with the San Mateo County
Historical Association. The founda-
tions website is coming soon at car-
olands.org.

SATURDAY, JANUARY 18, 2014
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Dont let impulse
take over, or you may make a costly mistake. Make
choices based on knowledge and facts, not hearsay
and fear of missing out. Love should be a priority.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) Speak up and
let everyone know what you think and how you
feel. Someone will try to take advantage of your
kindness and enthusiasm if youre not careful.
Protect your heart and your money.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) Join a group that
will help you reach your personal goals. Starting a
diet or a new exercise routine will get you back on
track and boost your confidence.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) A fast-paced
approach to whatever you do will attract interest.
Develop your ideas and share your thoughts. A
partnership with someone who is pursuing a similar
dream will help you excel.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Staying in the
background may be difficult. Someone will try to
flesh out your ideas. Focus on what you can offer
physically, rather than mentally, and you will avoid
an unsettling situation.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Enjoy your home today.
Entertain friends and new acquaintances, and share
what you have to offer. Your hospitality will result in an
interesting proposal that could lead to good fortune.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) Partnerships should
take top priority. Offer something special, or make a
move on someone you want to get to know better. An
unusual discovery will result in a moneymaking idea.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Your willingness to make
the changes that are necessary to keep your personal
relationships running smoothly will not go unnoticed.
An unusual offering will lead to certainty and security.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Participate in
community events or activities that will allow you to
be indulgent with friends, family or someone you love.
Dont let an impulsive move quash your good time.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) Be careful how you
handle domestic situations. Invest your time and
money wisely. Home improvements, a move or altering
the way you live will result in greater happiness.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) Keep your emotions
well- hidden. Consider what you can do to help a
greater cause. A unique approach to the way you live
will make you feel more at ease.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) Let your
competitive side take over. Play a game of chance
or make a personal change that will inspire you to
follow your dreams.

NOTICE OF PETITION TO
ADMINISTER ESTATE OF
John P. Sheehan, aka John Sheehan,
aka Jack Sheehan
Case Number: 124038
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, con-
tingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or es-
tate, or both, of: John P. Sheehan, aka
John Sheehan, aka Jack Sheehan. A Pe-
tition for Probate has been filed by Di-
ane Key in the Superior Court of Califor-
nia, County of San Mateo. The Petition
for Probate requests that Diane Key be
appointed as personal representative to
administer the estate of the decedent.
The petition requests the decedents will
and codicils, if any, be admitted to 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-
ister 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 29, 2014 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 peti-
tion, you should appear at the hearing
and state your objections or file written
objections with the court before the hear-
ing. Your appearance may be in person
or by your attorney.
If you are a creditor or a contingent cred-
itor of the decedent, you must file your
claim with the court and mail a copy to
the personal representative appointed by
the court within the later of either (1) four
months from the date of first issuance of
letters to a general personal representa-
tive, as defined in section 58(b) of the
California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days
from the date of mailing or personal de-
livery to you of a notice under section
9052 of the California Probate Code.
Other California statutes and legal au-
thority may affect your rights as a cred-
itor. You may want to consult with an at-
torney knowledgeable in California law.
You may examine the file kept by the
court. If you are a person interested in
the estate, you may file with the court a
Request for Special Notice (form 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.

FINDING OF NO SIGNFICANT IMPACT
AND
NOTICE OF INTENT TO REQUEST RELEASE OF FUNDS
January 18, 2014
Housing Authority of the County of San Mateo
264 Harbor Blvd., Bldg. A
Belmont, CA 94002
This Notice shall satisfy the above-cited two separate but related procedural notification require-
ments for activities to be undertaken by the Housing Authority of the County of San Mateo.
REQUEST FOR RELEASE OF FUNDS
On or about February 3, 2014, the Housing Authority of the County of San Mateo will submit a re-
quest to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) for the release of 33
Project-Based Section 8 Vouchers as authorized by the United States Housing Act of 1937, Sec-
tion 8(c)(9), as amended, to undertake a project known as Foster Square Affordable Senior
Housing for the purpose of providing affordable housing to seniors.
MidPen Housing Corporation proposes to develop a half-acre on a portion of a vacant 15-acre
site in Foster City, adjacent to Foster Citys City Hall. Located at the southwestern corner of Fos-
ter City Blvd. and Balclutha Drive, the development will be comprised of ground level commercial
and retail space and 66 affordable senior housing units contained in a four-story building. The
ground floor space will accommodate meeting rooms, office space, computer lab, laundry, fitness
room and other amenities and approximately 10,000 square feet of retail space. The second floor
will have a landscaped terrace available for private tenant use as well as residential units. The
third and fourth floors will contain residential units. Parking for residents will be provided on an
adjacent surface parking lot to the east of the site. There are 39 dedicated spaces for residents
and an additional 316 general parking shared spaces.
The approximately 10,000 square feet of ground level commercial space will be owned and man-
aged by The New Home Company and will most likely attract retail tenants in the casual dining
category.
There will be 65 one-bedroom units in three floor plans. A total of 47 units will be 593 square feet
in size; 12 units will be 562 square feet; and 6 units will be 613 square feet in size. One two-bed-
room unit will be 793 gross square feet in size.
Total project cost is estimated to be $26,661,101 from all funding sources.
FINDING OF NO SIGNIFICANT IMPACT
The Housing Authority of the County of San Mateo has determined that the project will have no
significant impact on the human environment. Therefore, an Environmental Impact Statement
under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of 1969 is not required. Additional project
information is contained in the Environmental Review Record (ERR) on file at the Housing Au-
thority of the County of San Mateo, 264 Harbor Blvd., Bldg. A, Belmont, CA 94002, and may be
examined or copied weekdays 9:00 A.M. to 5:00 P.M.
PUBLIC COMMENTS
Any individual, group or agency disagreeing with this determination or wishing to comment on the
project may submit written comments to Debbie McIntyre, Administrative Services Manager,
Housing Authority of the County of San Mateo, 264 Harbor Blvd., Bldg. A, Belmont, CA 94002.
All comments received by 5:00 PM on Sunday, February 2, 2014 will be considered by San Ma-
teo County prior to submission of a request for release of funds. Comments should specify which
Notice they are addressing.
ENVIRONMENTAL CERTIFICATION
The Housing Authority of the County of San Mateo certifies to HUD that William Lowell, in his ca-
pacity as Executive Director of the Housing Authority of the County of San Mateo, in his capacity
as NEPA Certifying Officer consents to accept the jurisdiction of the Federal Courts if an action is
brought to enforce responsibilities in relation to the environmental review process and that these
responsibilities have been satisfied. HUDs approval of the certification satisfies its responsibili-
ties under NEPA and related laws and authorities, and allows San Mateo County to use Program
funds.
OBJECTIONS
HUD Office will accept objections to the Responsible Entitys (RE) Request for Release of Funds
and Environmental Certification for a period of fifteen days following the submission date speci-
fied above or the actual receipt of the request (whichever is later) only if they are on the following
bases: (a) the certification was not executed by the Certifying Officer or other officer of the Hous-
ing Authority of the County of San Mateo approved by HUD; (b) the RE has omitted a step or
failed to make a determination or finding required by HUD regulations at 24 CFR Part 58 or by
CEQ regulations at 40 CFR 1500-1508, as applicable; (c) the RE has omitted one or more steps
in the preparation, completion or publication of the Environmental Assessment or Environmental
Impact Study per 24 CFR Subparts E, F or G of Part 58, as applicable; (d) the grant recipient or
other participants in the development process has committed funds for or undertaken activities
not authorized by 24 CFR Part 58 before release of funds and approval of the environmental cer-
tification; (e) another Federal, State or local agency has submitted a written finding that the proj-
ect is unsatisfactory from the standpoint of environmental quality. Objections must be prepared
and submitted in accordance with the required procedures (24 CFR Part 58, Section 58.75) and
shall be addressed to Maria Cremer, Office of Community Planning and Development, U.S. HUD
San Francisco Regional Office, Region IX, 600 Harrison Street, 3rd Floor, San Francisco, CA
94107-1300. Potential objectors should contact HUD to verify the actual last day of the objection
period.

California law requires that contractors
taking jobs that total $500 or more (labor
or materials) be licensed by the Contrac-
tors State License Board. State law also
requires that contractors include their li-
cense number in their advertising. You
can check the status of your licensed
contractor at www.cslb.ca.gov or 800-
321-CSLB. Unlicensed contractors taking
jobs that total less than $500 must state
in their advertisements that they are not
licensed by the Contractors State Li-
cense Board.
