San Brunos vision for creating a lively
transit corridor with more housing, new busi-
nesses and taller buildings will be one step
closer next week when the City Council will
give nal approval on the plan which took
many years to complete.
Work to create a plan to support about 150
acres including downtown started in the fall of
2008, was sidelined in 2010 and the effort
resumed last year. Despite the interruption in
planning, the goals remain to promote down-
town as a destination while enhancing local
character and economic vitality. The vision to
be discussed includes embracing the eclectic
architecture of San Mateo Avenue, creating
large mixed-use buildings to drive trafc into
the area and creating a cultural home to the
many ethnic groups that call San Bruno home.
On Tuesday, the council is expected to give a
nal vote on the plan. If approved, imple-
menting the plan will require voters to OK
new height limits.
Mayor Jim Ruane described next weeks
vote as the culmination of much public input
that shaped the plan which will work with the
grade separation, currently under construc-
tion. Passing the plan will be the rst step in
making the vision a reality. However, Ruane
is optimistic that the recent economic uptick
will bring interested developers to the city.
During his State of the City address last
month, Ruane mentioned there were people
coming forward with ideas.
For example, proposals to renovate the
Budget Motel at 850 El Camino Real and to
San Bruno transit corridor plan includes more housing, new businesses, taller buildings

Carolyn Hoskins stands in the Diana Ross section of her eclectic Black History Museum in Redwood City, open for Black
History Month.
By Sally Schilling
DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT
Not many people in their early 20s
have a museum named after them. But
Domini Hoskins, who went to Central
Elementary School in Belmont, has an
entire black history museum in his
name.
It was a mere conversation with his
grandmother, Carolyn Hoskins, that led
her to create a giant exhibit, which is
now a destination for school classes and
culturally curious folks all over the
Peninsula.
She told the Daily Journal the begin-
nings of her black history exhibit
which has enough artifacts and memora-
bilia to ll a Hillsborough mansion
started with Dominis elementary school
assignment. He had to write a report on
a famous African-American. This being
his third of such assignments, he asked
his grandmother if there were any other
African-Americans besides Dr. Martin
Luther King Jr., and Rosa Parks, who
did anything.
That was all it took for Hoskins to
begin what has turned into a gigantic
collection of items reflecting the
achievements and struggles of African-

Bay Area leaders
consider merger
Supporters say sharing resources would save
money, help businesses remain competitive
By Martha Mendoza
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN JOSE Hundreds of business and political leaders
gathered in San Jose to consider the advantages of merging the
nine-county San Francisco Bay Area and Silicon Valley into a
single region, sharing everything from city dumps to water
treatment plants as communities sprawl across borders.
Leaders attending the State of the Valley conference Friday
noted that Bay Area residents, businesses and local govern-
ments face the same challenges, from gridlock and earth-
quakes to steep housing prices and climate change.
They said the region, which amounts to the worlds 13th-
largest economy, should continue to boom if they coordinate
their planning and consider merging transit systems, police
and re services and even city governments.
Technology forecaster Paul Saffo told conference partici-
pants that sharing everything from landlls to police helicop-
ters could make the entire area more efcient, save money and
help businesses remain competitive.

George Stephen designed his rst kettle-
shaped barbecue grill in 1951. At the
time he worked for Weber Brothers
Metal Works near Chicago. He devel-
oped a barbecue with a lid on it. He
added three legs to the bottom, a handle
to the top, and the Weber grill was born.

A chuckwagon was a type of wagon
used to carry food and cooking equip-

The chuckwagon was invented by
Charles Goodnight (1836-1929) for long

***
There is a difference between grilling
and barbecuing. Grilling is done over the
direct heat of a re. The outside of the
meat is seared and concentrates the
juices on the inside. Barbecue is the
process of cooking meat at low tempera-
ture (210 degrees or less) for a long
time.
***
Answer: A rub, or dry rub, is a blend of
herbs and spices that gets rubbed on the
meat before putting it on the grill. Rubs
work best on fatty cuts of meat.
Marinades work best with leaner meats.

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
The Redwood City man accused of angrily
beating a teen neighbor girls poodle in the
head with a brick so severely it had to be euth-
anized was convicted Friday afternoon of ani-
mal cruelty and taken into custody without
bail.
Marcos Montano-Topete, 32, faces up to
three years prison when sentenced March
12. He testified Thursday that he threw the
brick at Globsis, a 5-year-old poodle, on
March 26 because he saw the 12-pound dog
having sex with his small Chihuahua.
Montano-Topete said he tossed it from
approximately seven feet away rather than
striking the animal direct-
ly.
But prosecutors called
the girls mom to testify
that he had never com-
plained about the dog and
a sheriffs deputy said
Montano-Topete had
admitted hitting the dog in
the face.
Prosecutors say
M o n t a n o - T o p e t e
approached his 16-year-
old neighbor, saying he was sick of the dog
coming onto his property and had struck it
with a piece of brick. Dr. Linda Janowitz, an
animal abuse expert who conducted the dogs
necropsy for the Peninsula Humane Society,
testied the dog suffered multiple skull frac-
tures which caused him extreme pain.
Montano-Topetes defense attorney has
contended from early on that his client was
simply defending his dog that had already
been impregnated by the poodle on two previ-
ous occasions.
The jury returned two guilty verdicts at
approximately 3:30 p.m. Friday, just hours
after beginning deliberations.
Montano-Topete had been free from cus-
tody on a $10,000 bail bond but was remand-
ed without bail following the verdict.

Getting a parcel tax passed in Millbrae is a
goal that has eluded school ofcials for years.
After a number of years of tight budgets, the
district is considering another round with vot-
ers. On Monday, the Millbrae Elementary
School District Board of Trustees will consid-
er approving contracts with TBWB and
Godbe Research to gure out the feasibility of
a parcel tax. For TBWB, the base consulting
fee is $6,500. For Godbes research, the pro-
jected costs range from $20,240 to $23,370
for the entire scope of project, according to
the staff report.
While Millbrae voters have been generally
supportive of schools, the two-thirds threshold
to pass a parcel tax has been too high.
Measure P, a $78-per-parcel tax put
before voters in 2009, gained 66.3 percent
support. In May 2007, voters also declined a
proposed $78 annual, five-year parcel tax.
The all-mail ballot showed 2,743 voters
64.4 percent were in favor of Measure R
falling just short of the required 66.7 per-
cent.
A proposal is working through the state to
lower the threshold to pass such a measure
to 55 percent.
Officials in the Belmont-Redwood Shores
Elementary School District wont seek to
extend or increase two parcel taxes this
spring and didnt discuss taking up the issue
later.
Currently, Belmont-Redwood Shores has
two parcel taxes. Measure G, a $96 a year
parcel tax for 10 years, passed in 2004. It
generates about $1.2 million annually. In
2008, voters passed Measure U, a seven-year
$78 annual tax that brings in about $950,000
per year. Both will end by the 2015-16
school year. On Thursday, the Board of
Trustees held a public hearing to discuss
extending and possibly increasing the parcel
tax amounts. Ultimately, it decided to hold
off on going back to voters for the time
being, said board President Robert Tashjian.
When the conversations started last year,
the districts future budget looked like it
needed a boost. Last month, Gov. Jerry
Brown suggested changes in school funding.
The impacts of the new system make budget-
ing a challenge for most districts. Should the
district decide to go for a tax later, it will
most likely conduct community polling.

Weapons sweep turns up 16 knives
A Thursday night law enforcement sweep
of parolees and probationers in San Mateo
County turned up 16 knives and a small
amount of cocaine.
The unannounced searches of juveniles and
adults was aimed at those legally barred from
possessing rearms or weapons. The effort
was led by the San Mateo County Probation
Department with assistance from the Sheriffs
Ofce and Daly City, Redwood City and
Foster City police departments.
Fifty-three searches were conducted, said
Cal Remington, the interim chief probation
ofcer.
One probationer was found with 15 knives
and one juvenile had one knife, according to
Remington.
The weapons were hidden in places like a
shoe box and duffel bag.
Remington said the sweeps were a good
sign that probationers are complying with the
terms of their probation.
Other searches are planned throughout
2013.
Google eyes airplane
hub at San Jose airport
San Jose airport ofcials are urging the city
lawmakers to approve a deal that would allow
Google to build an aviation hub so the compa-
ny can land and service its corporate jets at
Mineta San Jose International Airport.
Details of the proposal were unveiled
Thursday in a memo to the San Jose City
Council.
Google currently parks its aircraft at
Moffett Federal Aireld, a former Navy site
operated by NASA.
San Jose International Aviation Director
Bill Sherry said that the $82 million project
would be a nancial boon for the local econo-
my.
It calls for building an executive terminal,
hangars and ramp space for big business jets
used by Google and other corporate clients.

BIG BEAR LAKE All that was left were
footprints leading away from Christopher
Dorners burned-out pick-
up truck, and enormous,
snow-covered mountains
where he could be hiding
among hundreds of cab-
ins, deep canyons and
dense woods.
More than 100 ofcers,
including SWAT teams,
were driven Friday in
glass-enclosed snow
machines and armored
personnel carriers to hunt for the former Los
Angeles police ofcer suspected of going on
a deadly rampage to get back at those he
blamed for ending his police career.
With bloodhounds in tow, ofcers went
door to door as snow fell, aware to the reality
they could be walking into a trap set by the
well-trained former Navy reservist who
knows their tactics and strategies as well as
they do.
The bad guy is out there, he has a certain
time on you, and a distance. How do you
close that? asked T. Gregory Hall, a retired
tactical supervisor for a special emergency
response team for the Pennsylvania State
Police.
The bottom line is, when he decides that
he is going to make a stand, the operators are
in great jeopardy, Hall said.
As authorities weathered heavy snow and
freezing temperatures in the mountains, thou-
sands of heavily armed police remained on
the lookout throughout California, Nevada,
Arizona and northern Mexico.

SAN FRANCISCO The FBI arrested a
San Jose man as he went through the
motions of detonating what he believed to be
a car bomb in front of a Northern California
bank, federal authorities said Friday.
FBI agents arrested Matthew Aaron
Llaneza, 28, Thursday night near a Bank
of America branch in Oakland as part of
a sting operation.
Llaneza had minutes earlier parked an
SUV in front of the bank believing the vehi-
cle contained an explosive rigged to deto-
nate from a cellphone command, authorities
said. Llaneza was arrested as he stood near-
by and tried to detonate the device with a
cellphone.
The FBI says Llaneza expressed support
for the Taliban and had hoped the bombing
would be blamed on anti-government
activists and would somehow spark a civil
war after a severe government crackdown.
The FBI said Llaneza expressed a desire to
travel to Afghanistan to train Taliban fight-
ers.
He is a convert to the Islam religion who
was once involuntary placed in a psychiatric
unit by police, officials said. He told police
he is a high school graduate who last worked
as a window washer in 2010, according to
Santa Clara County court records.

NATION 7
By Nicholas Riccardi
LITTLETON, Colo. It was little sur-
prise when freshman Republican Rep.
Mike Coffman in 2010 voted against a bill
to grant citizenship to some young illegal
immigrants. After all, the Marine Corps
veteran had just won the seat in Congress
formerly held by rebrand Rep. Tom
Tancredo, who had pushed the GOP to
take a harsher stance against illegal immi-
gration.
The bill, known as the DREAM Act,
died in the Senate.
Now Coffman has changed course. He
has introduced legislation to let unautho-
rized immigrants brought into the country
as children earn citizenship if they serve in
the military. And he spoke hopefully
about an immigration overhaul that a
bipartisan group of senators outlined last
week.
Since the
November elections,
many other
Republicans nation-
wide have tempered
their tone on immi-
gration if not
reversed course com-
pletely after years
of tacking right to
appeal to grass-roots
activists who dominate GOP primaries.
On Tuesday, House Majority Leader
Eric Cantor became the latest high-prole
Republican to shift gears. A leader of the
conservative caucus and previous oppo-
nent of the DREAM Act, Cantor called for
allowing illegal immigrants brought here
as children to become citizens.
Coffman won re-election by only 2
points and is a top target for Democrats
next year. But Coffman says his change of
heart is personal: He met a constituent
who served as a Marine and lost his legs
in an IED explosion in Afghanistan. The
man was a Canadian immigrant who
became a citizen, and his brother joined
the military and became a citizen, too.
Coffman also recalls a former Spanish
tutor telling him about the lack of oppor-
tunity for young illegal immigrants.
For young people who grew up in this
country, and dont know another country,
to not be able to serve in the military.
Coffman said, trailing off. He said the
broader overhaul seems to be moving in
the right direction.
All this suggests that the Republican
Party seems to have gotten the message
after its shellacking last fall, though it is
still unclear whether softer stances will
translate into broad enough support for an
overhaul that includes a pathway to citi-
zenship for the countrys estimated 11
million illegal immigrants.
Republicans scramble for
the center on immigration
DES MOINES, Iowa Once largely
united in resisting the Obama administra-
tions new health care overhaul, a growing
number of Republican governors are now
buying into parts of the system as the
nancial realities of their states medical
costs begin to counterbalance the erce
election politics of the issue.
This week, Michigans Rick Snyder
became the sixth GOP governor to pro-
pose expanding his states health insur-
ance program to cover more low-income
residents, in line with the Democratic
administrations strong recommendation.
Eleven Republican governors have reject-
ed the idea while a dozen, who have been
mostly critical, have not announced a
decision.
Although the Democratic presidents
re-election last fall cleared the way for
providing health insurance for millions of
Americans who dont have it, many
Republican governors have resisted parts
of the plan that remained optional. They
have been reluctant to expand their
Medicaid programs to cover more low-
income residents. And many declined to
take responsibility for the online market-
places called exchanges that would
offer subsidized private coverage to the
middle class.
In a switch, GOP governors back expanding Medicaid
Eric Cantor
Lawmakers consider regulating drone strikes
WASHINGTON CIA Director-designate John Brennans
vigorous defense of drone strikes to kill terror suspects even
American citizens overseas is causing
key lawmakers to consider lifting secrecy
from what has become an important
weapon in the ght against al-Qaida.
Brennan, President Barack Obamas top
counterterror adviser, was grilled for more
than three hours Thursday before the Senate
Intelligence Committee on the drone pro-
gram he leads, as well as on the CIAs harsh
interrogation techniques during the Bush
administration, which he denounced, and
on leaks of classied information to the media, which Brennan
vehemently denied being a part of.
Despite Brennans wide-ranging testimony and the White
Houses release of a top secret memo explaining its legal
rationale for the strikes just hours before the conrmation hear-
ing began, some senators said afterward it was time to bring the
drone program into the open.
After early start, worst of flu season may be over
NEW YORK The worst of the u season appears to be
over.
The number of states reporting intense or widespread illness-
es dropped again last week, and in a few states there was very
little u going around, U.S. health ofcials said Friday.
The season started earlier than normal, rst in the Southeast
and then spreading. But now, by some measures, u activity
has been ebbing for at least four weeks in much of the country.
Flu and pneumonia deaths also dropped the last two weeks, the
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported.

Obituaries
By Jason Dearen
SAN FRANCISCO California pro-
posed regulations on Friday that would
set new flammability standards and
allow furniture and baby product manu-
facturers to stop using chemical ame
retardants.
The change was proposed after
decades of complaints about the spread
of chemicals known as PBDEs and
TDCPP into the environment.
California is the only U.S. state with a
mandatory flammability standard for
residential furniture, a standard often
achieved by the use of chemically treat-
ed foams. But the rule has become the de
facto standard for the rest of the nation.
In June, Gov. Jerry Brown ordered the
state Bureau of Electronic and
Appliance Repair, Home Furnishings
and Thermal Insulation to re-examine
the standard to reduce manufacturers
reliance on toxic chemicals.
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention say people are being
exposed to the chemicals by eating sh
or breathing dust that has been contami-
nated.
People tested in the U.S. had levels of
the chemicals in their bodies several
times higher than people tested in
Europe, the CDC said.
Animal studies have shown PBDEs
can affect brain development, but human
health effects are still unknown, accord-
ing to the CDC.
While use of the PBDEs and TDCPP
which is listed as a carcinogen under
Californias Proposition 65 have been
regulated in California, furniture manu-
facturers have replaced the substances
with similar chemicals that have also
raised concerns.
So, instead of banning the chemical
retardants, the new rules seek to end the
use of any chemicals in treating foam.
The proposal came after a federal study
found no signicant difference in the
flammability of foams treated with
chemical retardants and those that were
not treated.
The current standard requires that
foams and other furniture lling with-
stand exposure to an open ame for 12
seconds. The standard also applies to
baby changing pads, infant mattresses
and other consumer products used by
children.
State studies found that cover fabric in
products ignites rst in a re, not the
interior foam. The covers can be made
from ame-resistant materials without
chemical treatment.
The new rules call for cover fabrics
and foams to be tested instead with a
smoldering cigarette the leading
cause of furniture res but would no
longer require that the interior padding
or foam be able to withstand an open
ame for 12 seconds.
California proposing new
flame retardant regulations
WASHINGTON A cornerstone of
President Barack Obamas drive to check
gun violence is gathering bipartisan steam
as four senators, including two of the
National Rie Associations congressional
champions, privately seek compromise on
requiring far more rearms purchasers to
undergo background checks.
The talks are being held even as Obamas
call to ban assault weapons and high-capac-
ity ammunition magazines, the two other
major pillars of his plan, are hitting rough
waters on Capitol Hill. An agreement
among the four senators to expand back-
ground checks would add signicant impe-
tus to that high-prole proposal by getting
the endorsement of a group that ranges
from one of the Senates most liberal
Democrats to one of its most conservative
Republicans. Well get something, I hope.
Im praying for it, said Sen. Joe Manchin,
D-W.Va., one of the participants.
Manchin, a moderate Democrat, is an
NRA member who aired a 2010 campaign
ad in which he literally shot a hole through
Democratic environmental legislation that
he pledged to oppose.
Also involved is Sen. Tom Coburn, R-
Okla., another NRA member with a strong
conservative record but occasional maver-
ick impulses; No. 3 Senate Democratic
leader Charles Schumer of New York, a
liberal; and moderate GOP Sen. Mark
Kirk of Illinois.
Senators seek pact on gun
buy background checks
Syrian rebels preparing
for advance on capital
BEIRUT Syrian rebels brought their
fight within a mile of the heart of
Damascus on Friday, seizing army check-
points and cutting a key highway with a
row of burning tires as they pressed their
campaign for the heavily guarded capital,
considered the likely endgame in the
nearly 2-year-old civil war.
The clashes raised fears that Damascus,
a major cultural center and one of the
worlds oldest continuously inhabited
cities, could fall victim to a protracted bat-
tle that would bring the destruction seen in
other major cities and trigger a mass
refugee exodus into neighboring countries.
Any attempt by the rebels to advance
into central Damascus would mean the
beginning of a very long ght, said
Syrian activist Rami Jarrah.

OPINION 9
Letters to the editor
Pocono Record, Stroudsburg, Penn.
G
rown-ups sure are funny people.
Funny ha ha, no. Just weird. They
say things like they mean it and
then they do something just the opposite.
Take guns. Lately all kinds of grown-ups
have been talking about putting guns in
schools and saying that we need to make
sure there are officers in schools to protect
kids from the bad guys. Some grown-ups
even think the teacher should have a gun
right in the classroom, just in case some-
thing happens, so theyll be ready. You
never know, you know?
But then these same grown-ups turn
around and get all mad because a little kid
was talking about a gun. Not a real gun.
Just a toy! Thats right. This little girl, she
was in kindergarten, she was 5 years old
and went to some school in Mount Carmel,
Penn.. She told another girl that she was
going to shoot her with her Hello Kitty
pink bubble gun machine. The grown-ups
got all mad. They even kicked her out of
school for 10 days. Like she was doing
something really, really wrong. Then they
changed their minds about punishing
her, anyway and let her come back after
two days.
Its just plain weird. Kids naturally do
things they see grown-ups doing. ... Really
little kids sometimes act big right in front
of their parents, because they dont know
yet that just because they are so little
theyre not supposed to even try these
things. Yet.
But this gun. It was a pink bubble gun,
for Petes sake! She didnt even have it with
her. She was just talking big, talking
well, kind of talking like the grown-ups,
about how everybody can have a gun and
use it and how we need guns in school and
everything.
Stealing
Editor,
While stealing any amount of money is of
course a crime, there seems to be a
tremendous discrepancy between the recent
$950,000 bail ordered by Commissioner
Kathleen McKenna for the Fair Oaks nanny
who stole $45,000 from her employer, if
compared to the ones ordered for much
higher defalcations recently reported by
local papers (Nanny in court for 95 forged
checks in the Feb. 7 edition of the Daily
Journal).
If I recall correctly, the bail amount for
the woman who stole more than $600,000
from the Mosquito and Vector Control
District was around a million. We never did
find out what the final misappropriation
was.
Oscar Lopez-Guerra
San Mateo
Catholics by name
Editor,
I consider myself a true Roman Catholic.
The reason I am using the adjective true
is that there are many who profess to be
Catholic but are only Catholic by name. I
was very shocked and angered when I
heard that President Obama received 40
percent of the Catholic votes who attend
church weekly. What boggles my mind is
how could any Catholic who expects to be
in good standing with the Catholic Church
vote for President Obama?
President Obama, an archenemy of the
Catholic Church, is now in the process of
forcing the church and all Christian church-
es to violate their God-given Christian prin-
ciples. He is forcing their affiliates;
schools, charities and hospitals, to include
in their insurance plan and pay for abortion,
contraception and various contraceptive
drugs. He has passed more legislation than
any other president, to increase and spread
abortion throughout the world. In other
words, he is a strong advocate of abortion
on demand, the killing of innocent pre-born
babies.
Also, he is a strong advocate against the
true definition of marriage as the Bible
defines it: between a man and women. He
wants to redefine the term to include same-
sex marriage between two men or two
women. Lastly, I strongly advise these
Catholics who voted for Obama, who have
lost their true faith, to ask for Gods for-
giveness and to repent, to go to confession,
and to ask for Gods mercy.

Response to considering
7-Eleven a good neighbor
Editor,
The operative phrase in Mr. Condons let-
ter published in the Feb. 8 of the Daily
Journal is that he drives by the 7-Eleven
every day on his way to work and back
home. He lauds the presence of a neighbor-
hood corner market in this location. As the
townhouse owner right next door, I bought
that property when there was a neighbor-
hood Italian deli in that location. I found it
charming and a source of neighborhood
camaraderie, great homemade food and the
ambiance of an urban corner market. That
is not the character of a 24/7 convenience
store and will never be, no matter how
many times they spin their new, healthy
retail story. So, while Mr. Condon express-
es satisfaction with 7-Eleven as he drives
by every day, would he be happy to buy my
townhouse and live next door to it 24/7 and
365 days a year?
Annie Coull
San Mateo
7-Eleven
Editor,
Ive noticed that two prominent
Burlingame residents, Joe Galligan and
Gene Condon, have spoken out in favor of
the 7-Eleven in San Mateo. They both work
in San Mateo but live in the Easton
Addition neighborhood in Burlingame.
Perhaps they can work with the officials in
Burlingame to lobby for a 7-Eleven in the
Easton Addition neighborhood. Like our
San Mateo Heights neighborhood, the
Easton Addition is a quiet residential neigh-
borhood. Im certain they would be in the
minority, but perhaps if they made their
voices heard, they could convince
Burlingame officials and residents that a
24-hour convenience store would be a nice
addition to the Easton Addition area.
Maybe they can even change those pesky
city zoning laws so that it can be done
legally.

Building for
the future
By David J. Canepa
A
s a fourth generation San Mateo
County resident, I take tremendous
pride in this wonderful county.
While we always have to look toward the
future of San Mateo County, it is essential
that we reect on our rich
past. The San Mateo
County Historical
Association continues to
preserve and foster this
rich history for future
generations through dif-
ferent historic locations
and exhibits throughout
the county. Our mission is
to enrich, excite and edu-
cate through understanding, preserving and
interpreting the history of San Mateo County.
Each year, more than 19,000 children and
their chaperones were given interactive tours
of the San Mateo County History Museum,
Woodside Store, Sanchez Adobe and now
Folger Stable. The overall attendance for
those museums has reached more than 46,000
attendees. Of course, a large part of private
donations underwrites the visits of our school
children throughout the county.
Recently, the association reached a huge
milestone by gaining reaccreditation from the
American Association of Museums. This is a
mark of distinction the association has
reached since 1972. Of the 18,000 museums
in America, just 4.4 percent have reached this
prestigious plateau.
Every aspect of the San Mateo County
Historical Association was measured in this
examination. Taken into account were how
they care for our historical collections, how
they make them available to the public, how
they develop the educational programs, how
much of our community they serve, how their
leadership manages the operations of the
association, how they provide the resources
necessary to professionally run their pro-
grams, how they manage their nancial assets
and how they evaluate all phases of their
activities.
The History Museum is still featuring long-
term exhibits such as: Natures Bounty: The
Natural Resources that Built San Francisco,
Ships of the World and Land of Opportunity;
The Immigrant Experience in San Mateo
County. The Museum is free the rst Friday
of the month if you have not been there.
On tap for this coming year is the creation
of a new temporary exhibit highlighting our
historic plow collection from Runnymede
Farm. The horse-drawn implements have
been meticulously restored under the supervi-
sion of architect Adolph Rosenkrans.
Lithographic farm scenes in our collection
will be added to the display. It will open in
March 2013.
While the San Mateo County Historical
Association continues their tremendous work,
they cannot do it by themselves. Funds raised
from its annual campaign account for 40 per-
cent of its annual budget. Your support will
help us further our mission of preserving the
past, and building the future by providing
high quality education programming,
exhibits, tours and community events.
If you would like to make a nancial con-
tribution to the San Mateo County Historical
Association or volunteer please call me
directly at (415) 513-9410 or Simone Garcia,
the Marketing Director at 299-0104. Also,
feel free to visit their website at www.histo-

By Steve Rothwell
NEW YORK The Standard and
Poors 500 edged up to a ve-year high
Friday, extending a rally that started in
January.
The S&P 500 rose 8.54 points to
1,517.93, closing 0.3 percent up for the
week. The index is at its highest since
November 2007 and has advanced for
six weeks, the longest streak of gains
since August.
The Dow Jones industrial average
rose 48.92 points, or 0.4 percent, to
13,992.97. The Nasdaq composite
climbed 28.74 points, or 0.9 percent, to
nish the week at 3,193.87.
The Dow had its best January in
almost two decades, and closed above
14,000 on Feb. 1 for the rst time since
2007. The index is up 6.8 percent so far
this year; the S&P 500 is up 6.4 percent.
A last-minute budget deal in
Washington to avoid the scal cliff of
tax hikes and spending cuts helped pow-
ered the rally, as did as optimism about
the housing sector and gradual improve-
ments in the jobs market.
The S&P 500 nished the week high-
er despite logging its biggest daily
decline in almost three months Monday
following worrying news from Europe.
The index fell 1.2 percent that day as
bond yields in Spain and Italy rose on
concern that the regions politicians will
drag Europe back into crisis. European
Central Bank President Mario Draghis
cautious comments about the regions
economy also weighed on markets
Thursday.
Everybody seems to be saying this
market needs to correct, said Robert
Pavlik, chief market strategist at Banyan
Partners. Nobody wants to be in it, but
nobody wants to be out of it.
Largely positive corporate earnings
reports and a report that showed that the
U.S. trade decit narrowed sharply in
December provided more fuel for the
markets advance Friday.
The trade decit fell nearly 21 percent
in December from November to $38.6
billion, the smallest in nearly three
years, as exports rose while oil imports
plummeted. The smaller trade gap
means the economy likely performed
better in the nal three months of last
year than rst reported last week.
The trade balance was surprisingly
very good, said Phil Orlando, chief
market strategist at Federated Investors.
The government estimated that the
U.S. economy contracted at an annual
rate of 0.1 percent in the last three
months of 2012. Orlando estimates that
may now be revised to growth of 0.5
percent.
Shares of LinkedIn, the online profes-
sional networking service, jumped
$26.39, or 21.3 percent, to $150.40 after
the company reported fourth-quarter
results late Thursday that beat analysts
forecasts. AOL soared $2.31 to $33.72
after the Internet company said its quar-
terly revenue grew for the rst time in
eight years, helped by strength in world-
wide advertising.
Currently, analysts are expecting
earnings for the fourth quarter of 2012
to rise 6.5 percent for S&P 500 compa-
nies, according to data from S&P
Capital I&Q. Thats an increase from
the 2.4 percent growth rate recorded for
the preceding quarter.
Stocks have benefited as investors
poured a net $4.1 billion into stock
mutual funds since the start of the year,
according to data provided by Lipper.
Im very encouraged by the fact,
that finally, for the first time in many
years, individual investors seem to be
participating in this, said David Kelly,
chief global strategist at J.P. Morgan
Funds.
The yield on the 10-year note, which
moves inversely to its price, fell one
basis point to 1.95 percent.
Trading volume was light as Wall
Street braced for what is forecast to be
the largest winter storm in more than a
year. Up to 2 feet of snow forecast along
the densely populated Interstate 95 cor-
ridor from the New York City area to
Boston and beyond.

Big movers
By Christopher S. Rugaber
WASHINGTON A jump in energy-relat-
ed exports and a steep decline in oil imports
lowered the U.S. trade decit in December to
nearly a three-year low.
The improvement suggests the economy
grew in the October-December quarter
instead of shrinking as the government esti-
mated last week.
A brighter outlook for trade also illustrates
how a boom in oil and gas production is
reducing crude oil imports and making the
U.S. a leader in the export of fuels. And it
shows that higher domestic sales of fuel-ef-
cient cars are lowering dependence on oil.
The trade gap fell nearly 21 percent in
December from November to $38.6 billion,
the Commerce Department said Friday.
Total exports rose 2.1 percent to $186 bil-
lion, driven in part by record exports of gaso-
line, diesel and other fuels.
At the same time, imports declined 2.7 per-
cent to $225 billion. That was largely because
oil imports plunged to 223 million barrels
the fewest in 15 years.
While we may see some give back in the
coming months ... the trend of a narrowing
petroleum trade gap will continue to drive
improvement in the overall trade balance,
said Michael Dolega, an economist at TD
Bank, said in a note to clients.
A narrower trade gap boosts growth
because it means U.S. companies earned more
from overseas sales while consumers and
businesses spent less on foreign products.
Fewer exports were one of the reasons the
governments first estimate of economic
growth in the October-December quarter
showed a contraction at an annual rate of 0.1
percent. The December trade decit gures
were not available when the government
reported its estimate last week.
Some of the gain from trade will be offset
by a decline in December wholesale stock-
piles.
Overall, economists at Barclays Capital
expect the governments second estimate for
fourth-quarter growth will be revised up to a
still-weak annual rate of 0.3 percent.
The monthly trade gures can be volatile.
Still, economists see the trade picture bright-
ening in 2013, helped by new technology that
has made U.S. fuel cheaper.
Production of oil and natural gas is surging
in the U.S. because drillers have learned to tap
once-inaccessible reserves trapped in shale
formations. New techniques such as horizon-
tal drilling and hydraulic fracturing, or frack-
ing, have made this possible.
Increased production has lowered U.S.
prices of crude oil and natural gas, which
reners use to make gasoline, diesel and other
fuels. Crude in the U.S. has been selling for
$20 per barrel cheaper than international
crude. U.S. natural gas is half the price of nat-
ural gas in Europe and one-third the price in
Asia.
With lower input costs, U.S. reners are
making enormous amounts of petroleum-
based fuels and selling them on the interna-
tional market at a huge prot.
For all of 2012, the trade decit narrowed
3.5 percent to $540.4 billion.
U.S. growth in Q4 likely stronger on export gains
By Michael Liedtke
SAN FRANCISCO Dell Inc.s decision to
sell itself for $24.4 billion to a group led by its
founder and CEO is being ridiculed as a rotten
deal by a major shareholder who estimates the
slumping personal computer maker is really
worth $42 billion.
The missive launched Friday by
Southeastern Asset Management Inc. threatens
to complicate Dell Inc.s efforts to end its 25-
year history as a public company.
In a letter to Dells board of directors,
Southeastern CEO O. Mason Hawkins threat-
ened to lead a shareholder mutiny unless the
company came up with an alternative to the
deal announced earlier this week.
Hawkins vowed to wield Southeasterns 8.5
percent stake to thwart the deal currently on the
table. Only Michael Dell, the companys
eponymous founder and CEO, owns more
stock with a roughly 14 percent stake.
Under Dells proposal, Southeastern and
other stockholders will be paid $13.65 per
share to leave the company in control of
Michael Dell, who founded the business in his
University of Texas dorm room in 1984.
Michael Dell is contributing about $4.5 billion
in stock and cash to help pay for the deal. The
rest of the money would be supplied by the
investment rm Silver Lake, loans from
Microsoft Corp. and a litany of banks. The loans
will burden Dell with debts that could leave the
company with less money to invest in innova-
tion and acquisitions.
Hawkins derided the price of the proposed
sale as woefully inadequate and laid out a sce-
nario that values Dell at $23.72 per share, or
about $42 billion. The per-share amount mirrors
Dells stock price six years ago, when Michael
Dell returned for a second go-round as the com-
panys CEO.
In statement late Friday, Dell said it is stand-
ing behind the merits of the current deal. The
company, which is based in Round Rock, Texas,
emphasized that its board had worked with
nancial advisers to explore a wide range of
alternatives before agreeing to sell the company
for $24.4 billion a price 80 percent below Dells
top market value of more than $150 billion at
the peak of the dot-com boom 13 years ago.
The transaction offers an attractive and
immediate premium for stockholders and shifts
the risks facing the business to the buyer group,
Dell Inc. said.
To allow for the possibility of something bet-
ter coming along, Dells board had already
opened a 45 day window for other potential bid-
ders to emerge.
Hawkins is worried other suitors will be dis-
couraged from bidding because Michael Dell
already has lined up a deal to buy the company
for what Southeastern believes to be a steep
discount.
Dells $24.4B deal opposed by major stockholder
Google Executive Chairman Eric Schmidt
plans to sell more than 40 percent of his stock
in the Internet search leader this year.
The plan disclosed Friday calls for Schmidt
to sell up to 3.2 million shares. If he were to
sell all that stock at Googles current price,
Schmidt would realize a $2.5 billion wind-
fall.
Schmidt ended December with 7.6 million
Google shares, or a 2.3 percent stake in the
Mountain View company.
Google co-founders Larry Page and Sergey
Brin are the only company executives who
own more stock than Schmidt. Page controls
an 8.7 percent stake and Brin holds an 8.5 per-
cent stake.
The 57-year-old Schmidt was Googles
CEO for a decade before turning over the job
to Page in April 2011.

EU leaders agree
to $1.3 trillion budget
BRUSSELS European Union leaders
have agreed to a budget worth (euro) 960 bil-
lion ($1.3 trillion), a signicantly reduced sum
that represents the rst decrease in a budget in
the unions history.
European Council President Herman Van
Rompuy said Friday that the agreement had
been reached after two days of negotiations.
A senior EU ofcial said the nal number
for the seven-year budget was (euro) 960 bil-
lion much less than the (euro) 1.03 trillion
that the EUs executive arm, the EU
Commission, originally proposed.
The two-day ght over what the EU pledged
to spend on everything from infrastructure to
development aid laid bare divisions over what
the role of the union should be.
HP sets labor guidelines

paid student interns and other temporary work-
ers.
The guidelines unveiled Friday are the latest
attempt by a major U.S. technology company

SAN FRANCISCO Sporting short hair
and black specs he doesnt need but chooses
to complete his new look, Tim Lincecum
hardly resembled the hard-throwing San
Francisco pitcher the Bay Area has come to
know for his shaggy do and strong arm.
Lincecum drew comparisons Friday rang-
ing from Buddy Holly to Elvis Costello and
even Greg Maddux. Silicon Valley smarty, to
poet and professor.
I wanted something different. Usually Id
take like six months between each haircut just
because I was lazy, Lincecum said. And
now its kind of nice to have something to
upkeep and take care of yourself.
A transformed Lincecum, indeed. One con-
stant he is counting on: staying in the starting
rotation for the reigning World Series champi-
ons in 2013.
You know, when I rst saw him, I didnt
recognize him to be honest with you, manag-
er Bruce Bochy said Friday, a day before the
teams FanFest. He looks good. I think it
took a couple years off his age, too. He looks
younger, a little more studious, too.
After a season of struggles and a career-
high 15 losses, the two-time NL Cy Young
Award winner embraced his role out of the
bullpen during the playoffs but is ready for a
comeback. He spent his winter in Seattle
working out with a pair of trainers who
pushed him to new physical limits after run-
ning his own routine during past offseasons.
Lincecum insists the work helped him gain
back about 10 pounds of strength putting
him at about 170 and regain his mechanics
that were lost for much of his lost 2012 sea-
son.
He improved his diet and started eating
more salads. He cant even recall his last x
from In-N-Out burger.
Lincecum hopes this is an overall change
mind, body and attire.
Very professorial, general manager Brian
Sabean observed of the former ace.
Somebody said he looks like Buddy Holly.
Somebody told me the glasses arent real.
Nice prop. He reinvented his look.
Now, the Giants are hoping Lincecum can
reinvent his game. Heading into the nal sea-
son of a $40.5 million, two-year deal that pays
him $22 million this year, Lincecum wants

Dons own the night
Late defensive press
keys win for Aragon
By Julio Lara
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
When you bring your squad to play the
Aragon boys basketball team, you must come
prepared to answer one very important ques-
tion: How well can you handle 32 minutes of
pressure?
Offense, defense and add to that a packed
Hillsdale High School gymnasium on Senior
Night no less there was enough pressure to
make Queen proud Friday night in San Mateo.
And when faced with wave after wave of
Aragon relentlessness, Hillsdale simply could
not keep up, falling to the Dons 64-47.
The Knights actually only trailed by three,
45-42, with 5:30 left in the game. But the
Dons turned up the heat in major fashion from
there, outscoring their rivals 19-5 the rest of
the way.
We love playing fast, said Aragon head
coach Sam Manu. We really turned up the
pressure and I think by the end it really got to
them (Hillsdale) and they couldnt handle it.
Ultimately, the Knights had no choice but to
give into the pressure; although for a handful
of stretches, the emotion of playing in front of
a packed house appeared to fuel the Knights.
Hillsdale jumped out to a 7-4 lead right out
of gate but then sat and watched the Dons
behind Nick Frankel, Isiah Atchan and Alex
Manu reel off the last eight points of the quar-
ter for a 12-7 lead.
Aragon landed the rst major punch of the
night in the second quarter by coming out on
a 6-0 run to take its lead to 11 point with 5:59
left in the half.
It took a Stevie Hasegawa 3-pointer to calm
things down for Hillsdale on the ensuing pos-
session. But as it was the case the entire night,
whenever the Knights showed a little some-
thing offensively, the Dons saw them and
raised them that much more. The Aragon lead
stayed at 10 for most of the quarter, but
Hillsdale closed the period out with the last
four points to make it 28-21 at the break.
When these guys get together to play, you
can throw records out the window, Manu
said. It doesnt matter to these guys. Its one
of those battle grudge matches. Its all about
controlling that emotion.
Aragon stayed in control throughout the
third quarter even when it looked like
Hillsdale was nally getting the home-friend-
ly rolls. The Knights knocked down three 3-
pointers in the third quarter after going 2 of 11
from beyond the arc in the rst half. It was

Ronberg leads the
Knights to big win
By Julio Lara
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
There are things that happen on a basketball
court that simply cant be measured with num-
ber on a stat sheet.
The Hillsdale girls basketball team is per-
fect example of this. Consider that in Friday
nights rivalry game against Aragon High
School, the Knights failed to hit a single eld
goal in the fourth quarter. In fact, they only hit
three shots the entire second half.
But they won.
Passion and heart, said Hillsdale head
coach Megan Hankins when asked to explain
this bit of a numeric anomaly. Weve been
talking about putting an entire game together
and we did that tonight. Its love. These girls
love this court.
It was Senior Night at Hillsdale and the
Knights made sure to send their lone senior,
Ashley Izumi, out in style with a 40-32 win.
Hillsdale trailed 10-9 after the rst quarter but
took the lead a eld goal into the second and
never relinquished the advantage. The win
was only the second one in league for the
Knights.
Hillsdale got huge contributions throughout
the game but none were bigger, tougher or
gutsier than Kara Ronberg whose rebounding

Snedeker in contention for 3rd straight week
By Doug Ferguson
PEBBLE BEACH Brandt Snedeker goes
into the weekend at Pebble Beach with anoth-
er chance to win, this time without golfs
biggest stars in his way.
Snedeker played bogey-free at tough
Spyglass Hill on Friday for a 4-under 68, giv-
ing him a share of the lead with Ted Potter Jr.
in the Pebble Beach National Pro-Am. Potter
three-putted his final hole at Monterey
Peninsula for a 67.
Hunter Mahan was among those one shot
behind. With one more round before everyone
has played all three courses in the rotation, the
leaderboard was a big trafc jam. Three dozen
players were within ve shots of the lead.
Snedeker, who was at 8-under 134, felt he
was at an advantage because he goes to Pebble
Beach for the nal two rounds.
And theres one other edge for his psyche
Tiger Woods isnt playing, and defending
champion Phil Mickelson is six shots behind.
Snedeker has played so well this year that
he is leading the FedEx Cup standings without
having won. He was runner-up the last two
weeks four shots behind Woods at Torrey
Pines, and then four shots behind Mickelson
in the Phoenix Open.
Keep running into guys who are or who are
going to be in the Hall of Fame, Snedeker
said at the start of the week.
Mickelson, going after a record-tying fth
win in the event, was easing his way into con-
tention until he made three bogeys in a four-
hole stretch along the ocean at Spyglass Hill
for a 71.
Snedeker made it look easy at Spyglass,
even though the day began in rugged condi-
tions with a light rain and temperatures in the
low 40s. He hit a towering 8-iron on the
downhill, par-3 12th hole that plopped 3 feet
next to the cup for his rst birdie. He added a
pair of simple up-and-down birdies on the par
5s and then closed out a solid day with an 8-
iron to 5 feet on the eighth hole.
Snedeker sees the upside of his two second-
place nishes: At least hes giving himself a
chance.
Thats how you win out here, he said.
You keep putting yourself in position, and
the more times you do, the more success
youre going to have. ... Im doing a better job
this week of making my way around the golf
courses and not putting myself in bad spots
and getting out of tough situations very quick-
ly.
His goal for the last two days?
Not do anything stupid, he said.
Unfortunately, I dont do it very often.
Potter remains somewhat of a mystery. He
won last year in his rookie season at The
Greenbrier Classic to claim a peculiar foot-
note in history the only player to win a
PGA Tour event in which Woods and
Mickelson missed the cut. Still, his perform-
ance has been spotty. Potter missed nine out of
the 12 cuts going into The Greenbrier, and
then missed four out of nine cuts after his win.
Its just a funny game like that, Potter
said. Some weeks you play really well and
you get the right kicks and everything goes
well. And then there are weeks you can still
hit the ball well and get the bad kicks.
Its been good so far on the Monterey
Peninsula, which has been graced with sur-
prisingly good weather. Even though the cold
rain nally arrived, it didnt last long. The sun
broke through about three hours into the
round, and by late afternoon, the Pacic was
gleaming.
Fredrik Jacobson had the low round of the
day, a 66 at Pebble Beach that put him in the
group at 7 under with Mahan, John Merrick
and Patrick Reed.
Saturdays forecast is for more sunshine,
giving those in the Northeast who are snowed
in some pretty pictures on television.
Snedeker is part of the celebrity rotation,
meaning he will join the circus Bill
Murray, Ray Romano and the rest of their
Hollywood crew, along with star power from
other sports such as Tony Romo, Matt Cain
and even San Francisco 49ers coach Jim
Harbaugh.

Grizzlies have Warriors number
MEMPHIS, Tenn. The
Memphis Grizzlies brought back the
inside play and tight defense that
made them successful earlier this
season.
And the performance with the
teams new players removed the bad
thoughts of the previous weeks
play.
Marc Gasol scored six of his 20
points down the stretch to help the
Grizzlies end their two-game slide
by defeating the Golden State
Warriors 99-93 on Friday night.
The Grizzlies said it was the most
comfortable the team had been since
adding Tayshaun Prince, Austin
Daye and Ed Davis in a three-team
deal that sent Rudy Gay to Toronto
on Jan. 30.
We let our defense dictate our
offense, said Gasol, who also
grabbed 11 rebounds and was 9 of
14 from the eld.
We were unselsh defensively.
We were helping each other. We
knew their schemes, and were real
aggressive in trying to get them
away from what they were trying to
do.
... Offensively, we moved it, and
we were fortunate that we hit a lot
of shots from the outside.
Tony Allen had a season-high 17
points on 7 of 8 shooting, Zach
Randolph had 16 points and 12
rebounds, while Jerryd Bayless n-
ished with 14 points.
Daye had 12 points for Memphis,
providing a spark in the rst half.
The adjustment to new players
and dealing with trade rumors con-
tributed to two tough losses earlier
in the week rst at home to
Phoenix, then in Atlanta.
All the talk about the teams
mindset after the shakeup led
Memphis coach Lionel Hollins to
address the issue in a 20-plus-
minute pregame discussion.
Among the topics was for the team
to forget the changes and play their
style of game.
We nally kind of calmed down
and let the game come to us, said
point guard Mike Conley, who had
10 of Memphis 26 assists on 36
eld goals.
We played inside-out down the
stretch. Got it to Marc and
(Randolph) and played off of them.
Thats what weve been known for
the last few years, and nally got
back to the inside-out style of bas-
ketball.
Stephen Curry
matched his sea-
son high with 32
points and eight
assists for the
Warriors, who
lost their third
straight. David
Lee was the only
other Golden
State player in
double gures with 26 points, con-
necting on 10 of 16 shots.
While allowing 63 points in the
first half, the Warriors limited
Memphis to 36 after the break, a
turnaround that presented some
optimism for Golden State.
We fell a little bit short, Curry
said. Its a frustrating feeling for us
losing three in a row. But it is a pos-
itive that we can take from this
game knowing that we got back to
our brand of basketball the last 24
minutes.
Warriors coach Mark Jackson said
the second half was a much better
performance on both ends of the
oor for his team.
I was pleased with the defensive
effort in the second half, Jackson
said. We gave up too many points
in the rst half. ... We played our
brand of basketball (in the second
half). I was pleased with that. It was
a tough loss for us.
Memphis took over in the fourth
quarter with nine unanswered
points after consecutive 3-pointers
from Curry gave the Warriors their
last lead of the game with about 8
minutes left.
The victory moved the Grizzlies 1
1/2 games ahead of Golden State for
the fth playoff spot in the Western
Conference.
We look at those standings every
day as we walk out, Allen said.
We knew those guys were right on
our heels, and we needed to get this
win.
The rst half had both teams hit-
ting above 50 percent from the eld
as the Grizzlies carried a 63-56 lead.
Allen, who hit all ve of his shots in
the half, had 13 points.
Daye hit 4 of 5 shots, including 3
of 4 outside the arc, for 12 points.
I hadnt made a shot in here yet,
Daye said, so it felt good to hit that
rst shot. Once I hit that rst shot, I
knew had a couple more in my
chamber.
Memphis was 8 of 20 on 3-point-
ers, compared to 6 of 17 for the
Warriors.
It didnt take long for Golden
State to erase Memphis halftime
advantage, scoring six unanswered
points to open the third as part of an
11-2 run that put the Warriors up 67-
65 near the midway point of the
period.
The game was close through the
rest of the third with ve ties and
four lead changes in the period. The
nal lead change of the period came
on an inside basket by Tayshaun
Prince as Memphis led 77-76 enter-
ing the fourth.
NOTES: The Grizzlies have won
nine straight in the series. ... The
Warriors have not defeated the
Grizzlies since Nov. 3, 2010. Their
last win in Memphis was April 4,
2008. ... Golden State G Jarrett Jack
missed his second straight game
with a right shoulder contusion. ...
The three-game slide for the
Warriors matches their longest of
the season. ... The 63 first-half
points for Memphis was only the
second time this season the
Grizzlies have surpassed 60 points
in a half.
Stephen Curry
nothing more than to return to his
dominant self in a contract year.
Lincecum went 10-15 with a 5.18
ERA in 33 starts and 186 innings
last season, his sixth in the majors.
Then, Bochy moved Lincecum to
the bullpen for the postseason in a
move that worked perfectly. Bochy
made it clear when the season ended
that Lincecum would have the
chance to start again this year,
though the manager does consider
him a possible closer candidate
down the road.
Lincecum, who pitched and won
the Game 5 World Series clincher at
Texas in 2010, allowed one earned
run on three hits with 17 strikeouts
in 13 innings for an 0.69 ERA as a
reliever during last seasons champi-
onship run.
I took it for what it was. It was-
nt a position that I was necessarily
100 percent familiar with, but I just
wanted to help the team, Lincecum
said. Right now, my perspective
isnt to be in the bullpen. My per-
spective is, I want to be a starter and
I want to get back to that elite status
that I was at.
He was embarrassed last season.
His condence took a hit. He tried
every which way to x things on the
y.
Its not just the jersey, but its the
name on my back, which is reec-
tive of my family and their work
ethic, he said.
The Giants are eager to see how
he bounces back at age 28 after the
rst prolonged funk of an impres-
sive career.
I certainly know he put the time
in and hes committed, Sabean said
of Lincecum. He ended his year on
a high note.
Lincecum has long struggled
through spring training with a
relaxed mindset regarding results,
knowing it was in no way indicative
of how his season would go. Thats
no longer how he looks at it.
I feel like as athletes, people are
judging you constantly. Youre judg-
ing yourself based on it, he said.
In the years past I kind of used
spring as work, just to get my work
in and if things go south, no big
deal. But now its like Ive got to
prove myself. That game is just the
same as it is when were playing
during the season. Granted, its dif-
ferent players but its still the same
kind of intensity. People are trying
to make the team and Ive got to
approach it that way.
Lincecum got some laughs when
it came to his look.
Ive got to get the bigger glasses
to be Buddy Holly, he quipped.
Pitching coach Dave Righetti has
formed his impression: Greg
Maddux.
Lincecum is just ready to get to
work. Pitchers and catchers report
Tuesday to spring training in
Scottsdale, Ariz., with the first
workout Wednesday at Scottsdale
Stadium.
I feel every year transitions into
its own year. Im taking every year
differently and approaching this one
with a fresh slate, he said. As an
introspective person, I kind of go on
any river that will take me to an
answer. Last year, I had a lot of
questions. I was trying to change a
lot things at once. Getting my mind
back to a stable point where I know
what Im doing and I know why Im
doing it, I feel like my condence is
back.
Notes: Sabean said the team is in
touch with Brian Wilson weekly
during his recovery from Tommy
John elbow surgery last April.
Re-signing the 2010 majors saves
leader is doubtful at this stage.
Their stance isnt our stance and
thats been longstanding, Sabean
said. Their camp holds the hope he
can get a contract with more guar-
anteed money. We see incentive-
based....
RHP reliever Ramon Ramirez, a
member of the 2010 title team who
re-signed on a minor league deal
this week, could be a late arrival to

Hasegawa again from the outside that cut
Aragons lead to just three points.
But up stepped Alex Manu and his nearly-
unstoppable dribble penetration that set up
David Manoa and Atchan on a couple of open
looks to take that lead back up to seven. The
third quarter closed out with Aragon up four
points.
Hillsdales nal surge came behind Angelo
Bautista, who struggled the entire game from
the outside but knocked down a couple of bas-
kets that kept Hillsdale alive. Unfortunately
for the Knights, his bucket to make it a three-
point game with 5:30 left was one of the last
ones Aragon allowed his team to make.
The Dons kicked it up a couple of notches.
Alex Manu sank a bucket, then Frankel hit his
second 3 of the game, then Sam Halaua
showed up and scored six straight points.
Before Hillsdale found another point, Aragon
tallied 11 and it was 58-43.
Frankel scored 10 of his 18 in the fourth
quarter to lead all scorers.
Alex Manu nished with 15 points.

The winner of this years tournament, which
begins Monday, will be the last. The SAP
Open is being moved after this year, leaving
the Bay Area without a mens tournament.
Its incredibly disappointing, said ESPN
analyst Brad Gilbert, who won here in 1989.
As somebody who grew up here and has been
part of the tournament since I was like 8-years-
old, its sad.
Gilbert served as a ball boy as a kid at this
tournament, made it to the singles nals four
times as a player, and coached Agassi, Andy
Roddick and Andy Murray to titles here.
But he has watched as the tournament lost
star power in recent years after the group that
runs the San Jose Sharks bought it from former
star Barry MacKay in the 1990s.
The tournament moved from San Francisco
to San Jose and fell lower in the pecking order
on the ATP Tour, leading to weaker elds that
lacked tennis biggest names.
While American stars like Sampras and
Agassi were regular participants, current top
players from Europe like Roger Federer,
Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal have never
come. Murray hasnt played here since he was
teenager.
The Bay Area is a star town, Gilbert said.
We were getting two of the top four in the
world when Barry MacKay was running the
event. We got the Americans, but he also had
contracts with other top guys. When Barry
ran the tournament it was like his baby. He
loved it. After he stopped running it, it
became a different event.
As a 250-level event, the SAP Open has
struggled to attract top names. This years eld
has ve of the top 30 players, with the highest-
ranked being two-time defending champion
Milos Raonic at 13th.
Sharks Sports & Entertainment also own a
500-level tournament in Memphis that also has
a womens event with it. When a group from
Brazil made a lucrative offer to buy that tour-
nament, the Sharks decided to move the San
Jose event to Memphis because of better logis-
tics.

game. Ronberg nished with 13 points and 20
rebounds.
Kara is our heart beat, Hankins said. She
just goes harder than any girl I have ever
coached. It doesnt matter if a girl is 6-4 or 4-
11 in there, shes going after the ball.
The Knights shot 50 percent from the eld
in the rst half, 5 of 8 in the second quarter
alone. Its that offensive surge that had them
ahead at half time 19-17 in front of a packed
house.
I told we had to keep playing our game,
Hankins said of her half time message. We
cant get caught in the crowd or the emotion of
whats going on.
The game stayed fairly tight in the third
quarter but the strong play of Ronberg (seven
points in the period) got Hillsdales lead to as
much as seven points. By the end of three, the
Knights still led 28-24.
As mentioned, Hillsdale actually increased
its lead without hitting a single shot from the
eld in the fourth. While Aragon was 3 of 13,
the Knights shot 0 of 8 but they visited the
free throw line 20 times in the fourth, sinking
11 of those shots.
Utah State stops
San Jose State 63-36
SAN JOSE Spencer Buttereld
had 22 points and 10 rebounds, both
game highs, for his fth straight double-
double and Utah State routed San Jose
State 63-36 Friday night.
Buttereld was 9 for 11 from the eld
for the Aggies (17-5, 8-4 WAC), who
have beaten the Spartans 12 straight
times since 2008.
Jarred Shaw and Marcel Davis scored
12 points apiece for Utah State, which
has won three in a row, all on the road.
D.J. Brown led San Jose State with 16
points. Chris Cunningham had 10 points
and nine rebounds but San Jose State
still had its season low in points.
The Spartans (9-14, 3-9) have lost
eight in a row since beating independent
New Orleans on Jan. 8. That was the last
game James Kinney, SJSUs leading
scorer, played in before being suspend-
ed for violating team policies. Kinney
was averaging 20 points per game.

STANFORD Chiney Ogwumike
had 18 points and 12 rebounds for her
seventh straight double-double, leading
No. 4 Stanford past Arizona 73-43 on
Friday night.
Joslyn Tinkle added 15 points for the
Cardinal (21-2, 10-1 in the Pac-12), who
won their seventh straight. Mikaela
Ruef scored 11 points and had 10
rebounds for her rst career double-dou-
ble.
Alli Gloyd scored 13 points to lead
the Wildcats (11-11, 3-8 Pac-12), who
lost their sixth straight and eight of 10
overall since opening the season 9-3.
Ogwumike missed three of her rst
four shots, allowing Arizona to remain
within striking distance midway through
the rst half. She made four of her next
ve shots, however, coinciding with a
17-6 run that gave Stanford a 31-19

NEW ORLEANS The compa-
ny that supplied electricity to the
Super Bowl says the blackout that
halted the big game was caused by a
device it installed specially to pre-
vent a power failure.
But the utility stopped short of
taking all the blame and said Friday
that it was looking into whether the
electrical relay at fault had a design
aw or a manufacturing defect.
The relay had been installed as
part of a project begun in 2011 to
upgrade the electrical system serv-
ing the Superdome in anticipation of
the championship game. The equip-
ment was supposed to guard against
problems in the cable that links the
power grid with lines that go into the
stadium.
The purpose of it was to provide
a newer, more advanced type of pro-
tection for the Superdome, Dennis
Dawsey, an executive with Entergy
Corp., told members of the City
Council. Entergy is the parent com-
pany of Entergy New Orleans, the
citys main electric utility.
Entergy ofcials said the relay
functioned with no problems during
Januarys Sugar Bowl and other ear-
lier events. It has been removed and
will be replaced.
All systems at the Superdome are
now working, and the stadium was
to host a major Mardi Gras event
Saturday night, said Doug Thornton,
an executive with SMG, the compa-
ny that manages the stadium for the
state.

BOSTON A storm that forecasters
warned could be a blizzard for the history
books began clobbering the New York-to-
Boston corridor on Friday, grounding ights,
closing workplaces and sending people rush-
ing to get home ahead of a possible 1 to 3 feet
of snow.
From New Jersey to Maine, shoppers
crowded into supermarkets and hardware
stores to buy food, snow shovels, ashlights
and generators, something that became a pre-
cious commodity after Superstorm Sandy in
October. Others gassed up their cars, another
lesson learned all too well after Sandy.
Across much of New England, schools closed
well ahead of the rst snowakes.
This is a storm of major proportions,
Boston Mayor Thomas Menino said. Stay
off the roads. Stay home.
By Friday evening, Boston had just 2.5
inches of snow and New York City had just 2,
but parts of southeastern Massachusetts had
more than 6 inches and central Rhode Island
had more than 8. And, as more than 100,000
customers in the region lost power, the
National Weather Service warned the worst
was still to come.
The wind-whipped snowstorm mercifully
arrived at the start of a weekend, which meant
fewer cars on the road and extra time for san-
itation crews to clear the mess before com-
muters in the New York-to-Boston region of
roughly 25 million people have to go back to
work. But it could also mean a weekend
cooped up indoors.
Rainy Neves, a mother of two in
Cambridge, just west of Boston, did some
last-minute shopping at a grocery store, ll-
ing her cart to the brim.
Honestly, a lot of junk a lot of quick
things you can make just in case lights go out,
a lot of snacks to keep the kids busy while
theyd be inside during the storm, things to
sip with my friends, things for movies, she
said.

Powerful regions are the new basic unit of
governments in the 21st century, said Saffo,
pointing to Singapore and Hong Kong. City
states are the powerful nexus of power, com-
merce, culture and identity.
Stretching from the rolling vineyards in
north Sonoma County to the sprawling estates
of southern Santa Clara County, the Bay Area
has 6.9 million residents living in 101 cities,
centered in the tech-rich Silicon Valley and
San Francisco.
One simple start would be to get the 27 sep-
arate transit systems that residents currently
navigate to look and feel like one, with the
same paint, fares and a merged schedule, said
Egon Terplan, a regional planning director at
the San Francisco Planning and Urban
Research Association.
He said the Bay Area should look to exam-
ples like Washington, D.C., for inspiration on
putting jobs near transit. And he said Portland
and Minneapolis have managed to coordinate
neighboring governments and services.
The conference follows the release of a
2013 Index of Silicon Valley this week which
found the region is leading the country out of
the recession with 92,000 new jobs last year.
And the report found those jobs are well paid,
high-tech positions: a San Jose high school
graduate earns 60 percent more than a college
graduate in Flint, Mich., the report said.
The index and the conference were spon-
sored by Joint Venture Silicon Valley Network
and the Silicon Valley Community
Foundation, both nonprots associated with
the regions businesses and governments.

If you were born during the Year of the Snake:
People born in the Year of the Snake are the
most intuitive, even while remaining the most
private and reticent. Snake people represent
the symbol of wisdom.They are intelligent and
wise.Snake people are usually regarded as great
thinkers.
Snakes are materialistic and love keeping up
with the Joneses.They love to possess the best
of everything, but they have no patience for
shopping. Snake people prefer to work alone,
therefore they are easily stressed; if they seem
unusually stressed,it is best to allow them their
own space and time to return to normal.

T
his past Monday, a fair amount of
small talk started off with some men-
tion of football. Conversations
ranged anywhere from a casual Did you
enjoy the game? the response to which,
in one instance, was a
caustic No! We lost!
to snark like I heard
there was some game at a
Beyonce concert. In a t
of faux enthusiasm, one
Facebook friend went out
of his way to post, ON
DAT [sic] SPORTS
HYPE MAN. No one
knows how excited [I] am
for this extremely special moment of my
life.
About halfway through the day, though, I
received a curious response. When I asked a
close friend if she had watched the Super
Bowl, she grimaced slightly and said, I
dont like to watch sports, partly because of
the violence [It] just makes people angry.
At the time, I only thought back to the
mess that broke out during the second quar-
ter, right after Baltimore safety Ed Reed
intercepted a pass from Colin Kaepernick.
But in hindsight, her comment reected a far
more holistic observation than I had original-
ly recognized. Like a barnacle, physical con-
frontation has become a key part of nearly all
contact sports culture, whether American
football, ftbol, hockey or basketball.
To me, the sad part is not the presence of
such a dynamic: In many ways, it is a human

NEW YORK Having recently purchased
the Star Wars franchise from Lucaslm for
$4 billion, the Walt Disney Co. is shifting the
lms into hyperdrive.
Not only has Disney already begun working
on a new trilogy, to start with J.J. Abrams
directing episode seven, but studio chief Bob
Iger said this week have said possible spinoffs
are being developed for young Han Solo, the
bounty hunter Boba Fett and Yoda.
Obviously, the tauntaun is totally out of the
bag. The Star Wars universe is set to rapid-
ly expand, with every penny drained out of
George Lucas franchise.
But why stop with a few predictable choic-
es when there are others deserving of a close-
up? Here are a few lighthearted suggestions
for further Star Wars spinoffs.
ADMIRAL ACKBAR:
Sure, the leader of the Rebel Alliances
Endor assault doesnt exactly have the mati-
nee looks youd normally want in a star. Truth
be told, he looks like a sh. But hes a master
tactician and no one is better at taking evasive
action. An Ackbar lm could revolve around
his deep-seated paranoia of constantly being
ambushed. Ackbar drives into a parking
garage: Its a trap! Ackbar drops off his dry
cleaning: Its a trap!
THE CANTINA BAND:
An obvious one, perhaps, but who doesnt
want to know more about the Mos Eisley
Cantina Band? Technically known as Figrin
Dan and the Modal Nodes, one cant help but
wonder about the band dynamics. Is Figrin
Dan like the Sammy Hager of the outt and
Doikk Nats the Eddie Van Halen? Do they
tour? And what about Max Rebo, the blue ele-
phant-looking guy who plays keyboards in
Jabba the Hutts palace. Do they ever jam
together??
LIFE ON THE DEATH STAR:
It was an entire planet (twice) created by
Dark Side, but whats it like to live there?
How are property values? The whole thing
looks entirely grey. Where are the parks?
Where do the Stormtroopers get their hel-
mets? This would have to be directed by the
comedian Eddie Izzard, who contemplated
the scene of a Death Star cafeteria in a famous
stand-up bit. Izzard imagined Darth Vader
ordering the penne alla arrabiata and arguing
with a caterer over whether he needs a tray.
C-3PO AND R2D2 ON HOLIDAY:
Because droids need a vacation, too. R2D2
and C-3PO nally get away for an eventful
week in the Caribbean where the two learn
some lasting lessons on friendship, love and
Suggestions for Disney onStar Wars spinoffs
In Chasing Ice, climate
change gets its close-up
By Dana Schimmel
NEW YORK There is a scene in the docu-
mentary Chasing Ice that shows the edge of the
massive Ilulissat glacier in Greenland collapsing
or calving and violently crashing into the
sea below. The piece of ice that breaks away is
compared to the size of lower Manhattan, and
appears taller than any building there.
The video of the glacier, also called by its
Danish name, Jakobshavn, is what photographer
James Balog calls irrefutable evidence of cli-
mate change. Balog is the subject of Chasing
Ice, which won the Excellence in
Cinematography Award at this years
Sundance Film Festival.
Filmmaker Jeff Orlowski followed Balog as
he set up more than 20 time-lapse cameras in
remote locations around Alaska, Montana,
Nepal, Iceland and Greenland to capture
images of Arctic glaciers as they change.
Balog designed each camera to withstand
extreme conditions, including sub-zero tem-
peratures and 150 mph winds, and to snap about
8,000 frames a year, some of which have been
featured in National Geographic magazine.
The lm opens Friday in New York City and
the following week in select cities.
In an interview with the Associated Press,
Orlowski and Balog talked about the lm and
their experiences making it.
AP: Climate change did not come up during
any of the three presidential debates. Do you
regret not releasing the lm earlier?
Orlwoski: I dont think that this is a political issue.
Its been turned into a political
issue but it shouldnt be. We

MANIC PIXIE DREAM GIRL: TWEN-
TY-SOMETHING ANGST AGAINST A
GRAPHIC NOVEL BACKDROP. What, oh
what, is going on with Lee and who in the
world is that girl in his apartment? His best
buddy, his ex-girlfriend, and his bartender
would like to know. An aspiring painters drab
and downward-spiraling life gets a starburst
of color from a mysterious young woman.
Manic Pixie Dream Girl, a Graphic Novel
Play by Katie May, is an intriguing mix of
media, using changing, large-scale, black-
and-white graphic novel panel projections to
both parallel and comment on the live action
as vivid characters, well-acted, volley crisp
dialogue with an edge. Intimate seating in a
small-scale theater brings the audience close
to the action. Directed by Jon Tracy. Artwork
by Rob Dario. Set Design by Jon Tracy.
Projection Design by Micah Steiglitz.
Costume Design by Antonia Gunnarson.
Sound Design by George Psarras. Lighting
Design by Jon Tracy and Krista Smith. 70
minutes without intermission. Through Feb.
17.
CAST: Joshua Roberts as Lee Tallman,
Lyndsy Kail as Lilly, Michael Barrett Austin
as Porter Price, Lucas Hatton as
Rick/Bartender/Phil; and Liz Anderson as
Jackie/Broadcaster/Receptionist.
SOME TERMS TO KNOW: MANIC
PIXIE DREAM GIRL Wiki says: The
Manic Pixie Dream Girl (MPDG) is a stock
character in lms. Film critic Nathan Rabin,
who coined the term after seeing Kirsten
Dunst in Elizabethtown, describes the MPDG
as that bubbly, shallow cinematic creature
that exists solely in the fevered imaginations
of sensitive writer-directors to teach brood-
ingly soulful young men to embrace life and
its innite mysteries and adventures. MPDGs
are said to help their men without pursuing
their own happiness, and such characters
never grow up, thus their men never grow up.
They invariably serve as the romantic interest
for a (most often brooding or depressed) male
protagonist. Prime examples are Natalie
Portmans character in the movie Garden
State, Kate Hudsons character, Penny Lane,
in Almost Famous, and Zooey Deschanels
roles in (500) Days of Summer and Yes Man.
GRAPHIC NOVEL The term is not strictly
dened, though one broad denition is a c-
tional story in comic-strip format, normally
containing only a single story with the same
cast of characters, generally having more
pages than a traditional comic book, and usu-
ally bound the way thicker magazines and
books are bound.
TICKETS: Performances are scheduled for
8 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 9, and Sunday, Feb. 10,

Sunday, Feb. 17. Tickets ($25-$40) available
for purchase at manicpixiedreamgirl.org or

AN ASIDE: Playwright and Producer Katie
May said, Manic Pixie Dream Girl was born
out of a need to write a play for my friends. I
nd myself surrounded by people in their 20s
and 30s who appreciate art and performance
but dont go to the theater because so few pro-
ductions speak directly to their interests or to
their own experiences.
STAGE DIRECTIONS: The A.C.T.
Costume Shop Theater, a 49-seat black-box
venue performance space, is located at 1117

SERVATORY THEATER. Feb. 28 March
24, A.C.T. presents the world premiere of
George F. Walkers Dead Metaphor a dark
comedy about the hypocrisies of postwar liv-
ing. When Dean returns home from the war in
the Middle East, he discovers that his superi-
or military skills dont get him very far in the
working world. He readjusts to non-bunker
life by moving in with his parents and preg-
nant ex-wife, then takes the only job he can

variable that derives from a competitive
atmosphere, less-than-stellar sportsman-
ship and physics. Whats really sad is
the extent to which it exists, both on
and off the eld, especially considering
the values professional athletics ostensi-
bly promote.
On the eld, take the New Orleans
Saints bounty scandal as an example. In
a column published in the April 2012
edition of the Aragon Outlook, writer
Blake Tandowsky notes, Let it be
known that paying players for injuring
an opposing player is wrong. Injuries
are a part of football, but they should be
accidents, not premeditated assaults.
He goes on to conclude, Chances are
this whole Bountygate situation will
blow over because the NFL is thriving
right now as the most popular sport in
America and xing an unbroken car is
unreasonable but the culture of
physicality and violence will continue
to stick in the NFL.
Seems right on both counts, Mr.
Tandowsky. The proteering incentive
notwithstanding, the fact that this inci-
dent even came to light reected an
individual organizations gambit at
leverage, one which necessitates an
institutional adjustment in terms of reg-
ulation.
Now, off the eld, I am struck by the
evidence which indicates that domestic
violence is correlated with professional
athletics competitions. A study of the
2010 World Cup cited this past October
in The Atlantic noted, Both dramatic
wins and devastating losses during the
World Cup were associated with signi-
cantly increased domestic violence in
England, while ties didnt appear to
have any effect. Still closer to home,
however, the New York Times blog
Economix highlighted a separate study
which indicated, [U]pset losses by the
home team were associated with higher
rates of domestic violence. In fact, an
upset typically led to an 8 percent
increase in police reports of at-home
incidents where a man attacked a
female partner.
Considering all this, none of it seems
unfamiliar within the context of high
school. Just amongst water polo play-
ers, there are stories of coaches who got
angry and threw folding chairs into the
pool. But curiously enough, none of
this seems foreign thinking as far back
as AYSO Saturday soccer matches. A
wholesome, American family tradition.
With elementary and middle school
kids punting balls back and forth across
the eld, the coaches stood on the side-
line wearing T-shirts that read I coach.
They play. You cheer. Even after all
these years, I still love the AYSO
Boards diplomatic subtly.

the effects of salt water on their parts.
The tagline: These ARE the droids

ANOTHER SKYWALKER:
It was long ago that on his death bed,
Yoda uttered his last words: There is
another Skywalker. It turned out, of
course, that Princess Leia was that
Skywalker, the twin sister of Luke. But
what if Yoda came back to say, There
is another another Skywalker? Not
twins, but triplets. Imagine the possi-
bilities. Im thinking the third
Skywalker should be the black sheep of
the family (other than, um, Darth
Vader). Possible casting choices for the
third, less talented Skywalker: John
Goodman, Will Ferrell, Tina Fey, Jason
Schwartzman.
OLD HAN SOLO:
Granted, young Han Solo is probably
very dashing and risk-taking. But dont
we all kind of expect old Han would end
up a lot like old Elvis? His hard-living is
sure to catch up with him. All that time
frozen in carbonite cant be good for
your metabolism.

were considering releasing it before the
election but that would have associated
the lm with a very specic political
agenda and were trying to stay a little
bit more neutral in that regard.
AP: Talk about the technical chal-
lenges you faced.
Balog: I had a number of electronic
engineers that were advising and con-
sulting on this thing and these are guys
who have been involved with sending
equipment to Mars, sending things to the
bottom of the ocean, sending remote
equipment across Antarctica on these lit-
tle wheeled contraptions going across
the ice, and in the end they said, We
cant calculate what you need. We cant
gure it out just by bench-testing and
mathematical formulas. All you can real-
ly do is build something and put it out
there and see if it works.
AP: Theres a scene when you com-
pletely break down. What happened?
Balog: Thats in May of 2007. ... I felt
incredibly, intensely the pressure of
man, this stuff has to work. Im not here
to be a scientist doing a eld experiment.
Nothing is of any value, any meaning,
any purpose unless I can be sure that I
come home with pictures. ... Im not just
there with my head on the camera crying
because Im upset that the camera is
malfunctioning. Im upset because Im
thinking the entire commitment, the
entire obligation is going to fail. Were
going to put out 12 cameras in
Greenland and come back with garbage,
so that was terribly stressful and upset-
ting.
Orlowski: Its gut-wrenching. Its
hard for me to watch James in that
scene, personally.
Balog: He loves to see me come apart,
I know he does, really. (Laughs)
Orlowski: It was really powerful.
AP: What was the absolute worst
moment?
Balog: Probably the worst moment in
the entire project ... that scene is in the
lm, when the helicopter pilot turns to
my collaborator Jason Box and says Ah,
were losing oil pressure.... So you
look out the window and you realize,
Well, I hope that other engine just keeps
working ne because its really cold
down there and theres icebergs and if
we go in that well die really, really fast.
And as we were going back and this
unfortunately wasnt caught on video-
tape, he came on the radio again. He
said, Im losing oil pressure in engine
number two and we were still a ways
out from the landing eld and then
youre really starting to think OK,
wheres the life raft; wheres the life
jackets; what happens if we go down?
What will this be like? ... Thats what
really keeps me awake at night. Thats
what gets me upset when Im saying
goodbye to my daughters at home.
AP: What was it like watching the
Ilulissat glacier in Greenland come
apart?
Orlowski: It was just the two of us
(Orlowski and Extreme Ice Survey eld
coordinator Adam LeWinter) watching
this monumental event happen and
nobody else was there to observe it or to
see it. We felt very fortunate that we
were at the right place, at the right time,
with the right equipment. ... Theres a
juxtaposition of emotions that you feel.
When youre out there with the camera,
youre really excited to capture that and
you want that to happen so you can
record it and document it, but when you
look back at the footage you realize how
horric the story is and what its actual-
ly telling.
AP: James, you were once a climate
change skeptic. Were you as skeptical
as Sean Hannity?
Balog: Nooo, no no no. Lets not over-
state that. No. Look, 25 years ago I
thought that maybe there was a lot of
hyperbole around this. I thought that the
science was based on computer models
which I knew at the time were relatively
sketchy. Computer models are quite
good now. Also like almost everybody
else on this planet back then, it never
occurred to me that humans were capa-
ble of altering the basic physics and
chemistry of the planet.
AP: Why do you think this lm
might have a different impact than
other climate change documentaries
like An Inconvenient Truth?
Orlowski: What James has been able
to accomplish is taking this invisible
subject matter of climate change and
making it visual, making it emotional
and so people can see it for the rst time
and when you can see it, you understand
it in a different way.

create a mixed-use, residential project
on San Mateo Avenue home to a
vacant run-down theater are being
discussed. Both will require a local sub-
sidy. Even without redevelopment
money, Ruane expressed hope that a
possible agreement could be reached.
Approval by the City Council isnt the
last step in the process. Voters will need
to weigh in on the proposed increases to
height limits, which the city is seeking to
promoted mixed-use development.
San Bruno currently has an overall
height limit for buildings of 50 feet or
three stories, whichever is more restric-
tive. Plans over that height limit, like
The Crossing project on El Camino Real
just north of Interstate 380, must get
voter approval. Within the plan are ideas
to raise height limits in downtown to
four stories or 55 feet, up to ve stories
on El Camino Real and San Bruno
Avenue, and up to seven stories at the
old San Bruno Lumber site near the
Caltrain station. Those height increases
require setbacks so buildings dont
appear to tower over the area.
Once built out, the plan would allow
for the development of up to 1,610 hous-
ing units, 147,700 square feet of retail
use, 988,100 square feet of ofce uses
and 190 hotel rooms over 20 years,
according to a staff report. Compared to
the current general plan, thats an
increase of 890 housing units, 19,100
square feet of retail, 666,600 square feet
of ofce and 190 hotel rooms.
It will also require changes to the zon-
ing ordinances, which will need to go
before the Planning Commission and
City Council later this year, said
Community Development Director
David Woltering.
The council meets 7 p.m. Tuesday,
Feb. 12 at the San Bruno Senior Center,

Americans throughout history.
People who come into the exhibit, which is
open for the month of February, are often
shocked at the number of pieces she has.
Theyre amazed, said Hoskins. They
think I just have a couple of tables and they are
blown away. You cant just come one time.
More than athletes
Dominis school project turned into an
exhibit that Hoskins would bring to his class-
room each year. It started with a few of
Hoskins own items and friends including
Jerry Rice, who played with her late husband
Bob Hoskins for the San Francisco 49ers in the
1970s.
Hoskins began taking her collection to
schools as far as San Francisco.
Now the exhibit is open to the public in an
11,000-square-foot vacant commercial space
next to Luckys in Redwood City.
This is only a portion of what I have, said
Hoskins.
There are countless items from black ath-
letes, including Mike Tyson photographs,
Wheaties boxes with Olympic runner Michael
Johnson, posters of the Harlem Globetrotters,
signed 49ers jerseys and old cards of San
Francisco Giants players.
You always get the stereotype African-
Americans are only good at sports, said
Hoskins.
Hence, the historic signed jerseys and bob-
bleheads are just the tip of the iceberg that is
Hoskins exhibit.
There are sections featuring authors and doc-
tors, and articles on little-known civil rights
scandals.
Then there is the music. Atop a book about
Aretha Franklin is a note saying she was the
rst black person to be on the cover of Time
magazine
These tidbits are scattered throughout the
exhibit, making it simple for visitors to absorb
fascinating facts.
If they remember one little thing, I will be
happy, she said, beaming.
She has signed photos of rappers Tupac
Shakur and 50 Cent. Some items come from
her childrens collections.
I could ll half this room with Diana Ross
stuff, she said, adding that her daughter is a
huge fan.
Hanging near the Diana Ross shrine is a glit-
tering jacket that MC Hammer wore on tour
and sent to Hoskins.
Accomplishments despite challenges
As she moved toward a section at the front of
the room about slavery, she reached into a box
and pulled out a piece of cotton from
Mississippi, with thorns still stuck in it.
Hoskins likes to show children what cotton
looks like when it is picked, as many have
never seen it before.
Also in this section are two pairs of shackles
that were worn by slaves.
She has a section on hair care products and a
section she particularly likes: inventors. There
are tables full of little objects representing
things that were invented by black Americans,
including the clothes dryer and the golf tee.
She pointed out that many of these accom-
plishments were achieved by people whose
parents were illiterate.
Hoskins highlights the achievements reect-
ed in her collection, but also the adversity.
Standing near her medicine section, she talked
about Dr. Charles Drew. His medical research
greatly improved the blood transfusion
process.
When Dr. Drew got into a car accident and
needed a blood transfusion, he was denied
entrance to the hospital and died, said Hoskins.
Sharing history
At a celebration of this years exhibit open-
ing, friends of Hoskins ate soul food and talked
about Hoskins will to keep her museum going.
Shes a high-energy person, said Gladys
Young, former president of the local chapter of
the National Association for the Advancement
of Colored People.
She never does anything small, said
Daphne, who Hoskins met while working at
her old sports shop, Bob Hoskins Locker
Room in Redwood City.
She loves decorating, said Hoskins moth-
er Lucille Yarbrough, who is in her 90s.
Yarbrough, who went to an all-black school,
did not think she would live to see the day the
country would have a black president.
Now her daughter has a whole corner dedi-
cated to President Barack Obama and his wife
Michelle. The Obama section includes a life-
like baby Barack doll wearing a shirt that reads
Birth of Hope with his inauguration date.
When Yarbrough thinks about how much
country has changed in her lifetime, she
remembers what she once heard a minister say:
The race of people is like a piano. You play
the black keys, you get one sound. You play the
white keys, you get another sound. If you play
them together, you get harmony.
Yarbrough, like her daughter, shares black
history with people she meets. She recently
asked a doctor at Sequoia Hospital if he knows
that the rst person that performed open-heart
surgery was a black doctor.
He said yes, he had read that somewhere,
she said.
Seeking a permanent home
Hoskins has been putting on her exhibit for
15 years, bouncing from venue to venue each
year to any space she can nd that is afford-
able. She began setting up this years exhibit in
December.
It is hard for her to put everything up, take
everything back down and store it every year,
said Yarbrough of her daughter.
I just hope one day shell have a permanent
building, she said.
The Domini Hoskins Black History Museum
is located at 282 Woodside Plaza (next to
Luckys), Redwood City.
Open for the month of February. Hours:
Monday-Friday: 10 a.m.-7 p.m., Saturday: 10
a.m.-6 p.m., Sunday: noon-5 p.m.
Special events include live Motown and
gospel music, an NFL player autograph sign-
ing and an Obama button giveaway. For the
