DA wont seek death penalty


Sunny Day murder defendant was last awaiting decision
By Michelle Durand
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

District
Attorney
Steve
Wagstaffe will not seek death for a
third-strike gangmember charged
with murder and other crimes in
the Sunny Day operation that
saw indictments of 16 people a
year ago for a range of crimes over
a two-year period and left nine

potentially facing capital trials.


Raymond
Louis Bradford,
28, was the last
defen dan t
awaiting
a
death decision
in his case.
Wagstaffe pre-

viously announced the same conclusion for eight others also


charged with murder and gang
enhancements but held out on
Bradford because of his threestrike status and reported position
as a leader in the group.
He is charged with the murder of
Stoney Gipson in San Francisco on
Oct. 7, 2012, and attempted murder
for a Belmont drive-by shooting.

On Thursday, Wagstaffe said he


believes life in prison without
parole is appropriate in his case.
Despite the very violent
record, our evidence does not
establish him as an actual killer in
any of the cases, he said.
Bradfords defense attorney
Connie OBrien did not return a
call for comment.
Wagstaffe also cited the nature

of the cases which are essentially


gang conflicts. The crimes reportedly began when the Da Vill and
Sac Street gangs of East Palo Alto
teamed up against the Taliban
gang of East Palo Alto and Menlo
Park. Between 2012 and 2013, the
war allegedly included four murders in East Palo Alto and San

sales jumped in December, buoyed
by a stronger economy and lower
interest rates, a research firm said
Thursday. Prices rose modestly.
The median sales price for new
and existing single-family houses
and condominiums was $388,000,
up 1.8 percent from $381,000 in
November and up 6.3 percent from
$365, 000 in December 2013,
according
to
CoreLogic
DataQuick.
It was the 34th straight month
of annual price increases, but percentage gains have been singledigit since July.

There were 36,468 homes sold,


up 23.8 percent from an anemic
29,459 sales in November and up
4.3 percent from 34,949 sales in
December 2013. Sales were particularly strong in the San Francisco
Bay Area.
The numbers suggest job growth
and low borrowing rates are
attracting buyers who live in their
homes, as opposed to cash-paying
investors. Absentee buyers, mostly investors, made up 18.3 percent
of San Francisco Bay Area sales
last month, down from 22.5 percent a year earlier.
Absentee buyers accounted for

A sanctuary for women Judge delays pimps prison


San Mateos Lakota Moon a community art space

By Sanne Bergh

By Michelle Durand

DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT

Jan Eastman first opened Lakota


Moon a year ago as a community
art space to offer solace to women
by promoting peacefulness and
confidence through creative
expression and providing an
escape from the complexities of
our fast-paced world.
Lakota Moon identifies itself as
a place that fosters learning and
connection, all while providing a

community atmosphere as a powerful tribe of women who value


self-expression.
I feel like we live in a rat-racy
world, and its a place where people can come relax and find themselves Eastman said.
Eastman opened up the studio
with the vision that it would offer
up a place for women to come into
a non-competitive arena with
sharing circles combined with art.
Eastman, a life coach, intended
Lakota Moon to be a sanctuary

that helps women explore their


creativity while also engaging in
a community of peers. The business is still getting off of its feet,
yet Eastman said some of the
activities and workshops have
started to catch wind.
The drum circle, one of the more
popular and longest running weekly workshops, started out running
for only six weeks a year ago.
After that time passed, the circle

If so, a sheriffs office in Florida has
a rug for you. The Pinellas County
sheriffs office said Thursday it will
auction off a rug that had In Dog We

Proceeds from the auction will go to

he wanted to put the rug on the auction
block because the story garnered so

The rug was initially valued at $500.
Bidding had already far surpassed
that. The auction closes Wednesday.

Chicago strip club


gets award for cleanliness
CHICAGO A Chicago strip club
has received an award for its efforts at
dressing up the neighborhood.
The Admiral Theatre on Chicagos
northwest side received one of Albany
Park Neighbors six Block Star
Business awards this week. The
groups website says the honor is
meant to spotlight businesses that
work to keep the neighborhood clean
and presentable.
Its difficult to dispute the Admiral
doesnt deserve the award, group
member Shylo Bisnett said. They
recently upgraded their facade and even
during construction it was still tidy, it
was still passable.
Nick Cecola, the Admirals creative
director, said he thought it was a scam
when he received an email informing
him about the award.
The club plans to showcase the certificate in the main lobby.
Were actually getting it framed, he
said, adding that the club has someone
always keeping everything clean,
walking up and down the sidewalk,
making sure they sweep, keeping the
whole block basically immaculate.
Community members nominate
businesses and winners are selected via
Facebook votes, Bisnett said.

Millbrae Community TV contract resolved


More than year-long negotiations wrap up with more city funding
By Angela Swartz
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

A long-awaited contract settlement


between Millbrae Community Television
and the city of Millbrae has finally been
ironed out.
The contract between MCTV and the city
expired in December 2013 and the city has
held off on making a contract decision until
it decided if it wants to provide the station
additional funding and operating space,
while dealing with its own budget woes. In
November 2014, staff recommended the city
restore funding to prerecession levels and
provide MCTV with space in the Chetcuti
Community Room, recognizing the value of
the community-based programming provided. This, which the council approved 5-0
Tuesday night, provides the time for MCTV
to seek additional funding from other
sources to become less reliant on the city
grant funding in future years, according to a
staff report.
Before the item was ultimately approved,
Councilman Wayne Lee pulled the item from
consent for discussion.
I brought up the point that its public
money and they need to be transparent and
we need to know what theyre using the
money for, Lee said. Otherwise it will be
seen like giving away money without purpose. I think MCTV can be independently
funded, but they choose not to be.
Others are pleased with the contract resolution.
Im very, very happy that the contract
was finally signed, said Councilwoman

Marge Colapietro. It was a long time coming. It was agreeable to both the city and to
Millbrae television. I think that now
Millbrae television will be able to move
forward knowing that they do have a contract. Since they are so progressive when it
comes to cablecasting, and being in the
community, theyre going to have an
opportunity to begin to develop some of
the forward thinking concepts that they
have for community television in
Millbrae.
The city granted a 3 percent increase in
funding to $37,080 for the 2015-16 fiscal
year, while funding it at $36,000 for 201415. Separate grant funding, for facilities and
other needs, of $51,000 would go to MCTV
for each of the years. That means $87,000
in funding for the 2014-15 year and
$88,080 for the 2015-16 year.
The two-year agreements that retroactively date back to July 1, 2014, end June 30,
2016, and will be funded through the citys
general fund. MCTV has provided cablecasting services to the city since 1997 and its
broadcasts include news, community
announcements, sports, entertainment and
other community-related programming. Its
funding was cut from $86,040 in 2008 to its
level of $76,534 for operating costs.
The issue of whether MCTV will pay for
space in the 750-square-foot Chetcuti
Community Rooms conference room, formerly the fitness room, for a community
media center, is also being discussed. The
city estimates the value of renting out the
conference room would be about $11,000
per year. Utilities would be about $4,000

MCTV would be able to have access to the
Chetcuti Community Room as a studio and
production facility when no other meetings
are scheduled. MCTV could also continue to
use Room 165 in the Police Department
building as office space.
Of course Im happy the process is over
for MCTV, said Vice Mayor Anne Oliva.
The council did due diligence. It was a very
healthy conversation (Tuesday night) and
all the issues that were brought up were very
wise and responsible on both sides of the
arguments.

Ready to go
MCTV itself is extremely happy to be
able to move on with an approved contract
and to start preparations for the opening of
a new media center in Millbrae.
With the additional space the city has
granted us we will be able to offer a variety
of media training classes and other programs to the citizens of Millbrae and San
Mateo County that will go far beyond the
traditional model of public access television, wrote MCTV General Manager Andy
Pitman in an email. And, we look forward
to being able to accommodate more of the
volunteers and interns who play a big part
in our success since, in our current small
work space, we often have to turn people
away.
Pitman said MCTV is grateful to its supporters in Millbrae and beyond who spoke
up loudly to let the City Council know that

Reverse Mortgage Financial Assessment to begin March 2015


The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has issued a nancial assessment for
reverse mortgage borrowers that will take effect
March 2, 2015
HUD writes in explaining the purpose of nancial
assessment, The mortgagee must evaluate the
mortgagors willingness and capacity to timely meet
his or her nancial obligations and to comply with the
mortgage requirements. The mortgage requirements
include paying property taxes, homeowners insurance
and keeping up home maintenance.
HUD states, In conducting this nancial
assessment, mortgagees must take into consideration that some mortgagors seek a HECM due
to nancial difculties, which may be reected
in the mortgagors credit report and/or property

President tries again to get


paid leave for more workers
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BALTIMORE President Barack Obama


launched a fresh push Thursday to bring paid

Pope urges Filipino officials to reject corruption


By Nicole WInfield and Oliver Teves
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MANILA, Philippines Pope Francis


called on Filipinos to reject the corruption
that has plagued this Asian nation for
decades and urged them to instead work to
end the scandalous poverty and social
injustices that afflicts its people, encouraging the government to continue the first
significant crackdown on high-level corruption since the fall of the Marcos regime
three decades ago.
Francis made the comments during a
speech to President Benigno Aquino III and
other Filipino authorities at the start of his

four-day visit to Asias


largest Catholic nation
where nearly a quarter of
its people lives in poverty. The visit was already
remarkable
for
the
unprecedented level of
security for a pope who
relishes getting close to

Corruption has been
rampant in the Philippines ever since the
20-year rule of late dictator Ferdinand
Marcos, who along with his shoe-loving
widow and cronies were suspected of stealing between $5 billion and $10 billion

International force mulled to


fight Boko Haram in Nigeria
By Christopher Torchia
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

JOHANNESBURG As Islamic militants


from Boko Haram step up attacks in Nigeria
that have led to the slaughter of more civilians, there is increasing talk that international military action, possibly including a
multinational force, may be needed to help
crush the insurgency in Africas most populous country.
The debate has taken on new urgency
since Jan. 3, when Boko Haram extremists
swept into the northeastern town of Baga in
Borno state, overran a military base and,
according to witnesses, killed hundreds of
civilians in the days that followed. It was
one of the most brazen assaults since militants kidnapped nearly 300 girls last year,
setting off an international outcry.
Amnesty International has released satellite images showing widespread destruction
with about 3,700 structures damaged or

before losing power in 1986.


The problem has festered amid a culture of
impunity among powerful politicians and
their allies, weak law enforcement and a
notoriously slow justice system. But
Aquino won the presidency by a wide margin in 2010 on promises to rid the nation of
corruption and poverty. Since then,
Congress has begun investigating highlevel politicians for corruption and three
senators have been detained.
Francis told the gathering in the presidential palace that more than ever today, political leaders must be outstanding for honesty,
integrity and commitment to the common
good. He said they must hear the cries of the

poor and address the glaring and indeed


scandalous social inequalities in society.
He challenged Filipinos at all levels of
society, to reject every form of corruption
which diverts resources from the poor, and
to make concerted efforts to ensure the
inclusion of every man and woman and child
in the life of the community.
Francis message will likely resonate in a
country where, according to government
statistics, nearly a quarter of the
Philippines 100 million people live on
just over $1 a day. And indeed, tens of thousands of people poured into Manilas streets
to catch a glimpse of Francis under the most
intense security of his two-year pontificate.

Chinas Xiaomi takes aim


at Apple with new phone
BEIJING Rising smartphone star
Xiaomi is moving upmarket and taking aim
at Apples iPhone.
The Chinese manufacturer known for ultralow-priced handsets on Thursday unveiled a
new model that Chairman Jun Lei said is comparable to Apples iPhone 6 but thinner,
lighter and much cheaper. The phone starts at
2,299 yuan ($375), less than half the 5,288
yuan ($865) price of an iPhone 6 in China.
We paid attention to every detail to make
it as perfect as possible, said Lei, standing
on stage before reporters at a convention
center in Beijing.
Xiaomi, founded in 2010, passed South
Koreas Samsung Electronics Co. in the second quarter of last year as the best-selling
smartphone brand in China by number of
handsets sold. The company is expanding
into India and other developing markets but
has yet to announce plans to enter the United
States or Europe.
The new Xiaomi could add to competition
for Apple Inc. in China, a market CEO Tim
Cook has said is expected to become its
biggest. Other Chinese smartphone brands
including Lenovo Group and Huawei
Technologies Ltd. also have released models they say offer features similar to the

Ukraine separatists
claim victory in battle for airport
DONETSK, Ukraine Russian-backed
separatists announced Thursday they had captured the shattered remains of the Donetsk
airport terminal in eastern Ukraine and plan
to claw back more territory, further dashing
hopes for a lasting peace agreement.
The airport, on the fringes of the rebel
stronghold of Donetsk, has been at the center
of bitter battles since May. Control over it
was split between the separatists and
Ukrainian forces who had held onto the main
civilian terminal. Reduced to little more than
a shell-littered wreck, the building is of limited strategic importance but has great symbolic value.
An AP reporter saw a rebel flag hoisted over
that building Thursday, although fighting
still appeared to be ongoing. Ukraine insisted government troops were holding their
positions at the airport.
Alexander Hug, deputy head of an
Organization for Security and Cooperation in
Europe monitoring mission to Ukraine, said
rebel forces carried out artillery attacks from
within residential areas.

Governor on right course to pay down debt


Other voices

Porterville Recorder

e support Gov. Jerry


Browns effort to pay
down the states debt
before allowing a slew more of spending by the state.
On Friday, the governor released his
$113 billion budget, a budget that
improves money for schools, but also
proposes to increase the states rainy
day fund should the economy falter,
and also pay down the billions of dollars in debt the state is still in despite
a balanced general fund.
In his budget, the governor proposes making a $1.2 billion deposit into
the rainy day fund, bringing the cushion against future recessions to $2.8

billion. It also includes a $1.2 billion


debt payment. Debt repayments
include retiring the last of a $15 billion decit-reduction bond incurred
under then-governor Arnold
Schwarzenegger and repaying local
governments $533 million for their
costs of following state mandates.
The governor also wants to reduce
the states unfunded liability for
retiree health-care benets, tagged at
$72 billion, or about three-fourths of
next years state spending plan. That
debt is cutting into the general fund
and is projected to grow to $300 billion in the next 30 years.
There are those in the governors

own party who want to spend now,


without worrying about existing or
future debts. There are also Democrats
who want to extend the temporary
tax increase voters approved to help
the state get out of debt, so they can
spend that money.
We hope the governor has luck getting those in his own party to be scally prudent and get rid of the debt
while they have the chance.
Economies ebb and ow and there will
be a day when cash is not as ush as it
is right now.
Capturing cash in the rainy day fund
is just the rst step to long-term scal
health. It is also imperative to reduce
all debt now, while the state has the
chance, before committing to more
long-term spending.

Foster City citizens


against developments
Editor,
Its extremely satisfying to hear citizens nally get upset over development in their areas (Citizens against
more housing in the Jan. 14 edition
of the Daily Journal).
Three cheers for Foster City citizens.
The cities in San Mateo County are
overbuilt, their support structures such
as water, trafc and schools are at the
breaking point. We are in a drought
that has no end in sight; our lakes are
empty, and we keep building. Trafc is
worse than ever and getting worse.
State Route 92 is not a highway; it is a
parking lot. Highway 101 from
Redwood City to Burlingame is the
same; both are getting worse.
Thousands of units are being added
throughout the county, and thousand
more are being planned just drive
around and look before its too late.
Los Angeles is being built in the Bay
Area and the rich are getting richer
over it. Lets put a stop to this absolute
destruction of a once wonderful area.
Im 65; I have lived here my whole
life and what I see is locked doors,
overpriced water, utilities and trafc
that is beginning to compare to Los
Angeles. I dont like the Dodgers and I
hate what our city planner is doing to
our once peaceful and undercrowded
area. Its time to get involved, people.
Dont let planners and developers
destroy your cities.

So long old pal


I

t all started with the power suit. Or maybe it was a


power shirt. No one can really remember at this
point. But when Michelle Durand first walked into
the Daily Journal office in 2001, she was definitely
dressed professionally. Matching jacket and pants and a
red shirt. And for a newsroom that was a little rag-tag at
that time, it was a surprising breath of fresh air.
From the get-go, Michelle was hard-working and
smart about her job and carved out a fairly nice niche of
reporting in the Daily Journals southern coverage area,
covering San Carlos, Redwood City, the county government and courts. I would guess she has written about
5,000 court stories for the Daily Journal in her time
here.
And now she is leaving for a new gig in the County
Center in which she will be on the receiving end of
inquiries from the press about the goings-on at the
countys widespread government.
The news profession has its share of turnover. In fact,
reporter Angela Swartz is also leaving after nearly a year
and a half here for a
reporting job with the
Silicon Valley Business
Journal. I dont have as
long of a history with
Angela as I do with
Michelle, but she has
impressed me with her
hard work, dedication to
the craft, fairness and
honesty with her reporting. Shes also very
nice and has the best
dog in the world.
However, despite the
occasional turnover,
Michelle has long been
a bastion of stability
and a source of institutional knowledge. I cant recall
how many times the line remember that time? ended
with a multi-minute trip down memory lane. The time
Michelle covered a murder in Burlingame on a Sunday.
The time she covered the Scott Peterson verdict and won
an award. The time I challenged her to write a column
about her second-biggest toe. The intern who insisted
on calling her Tracy and Michelles very Michelle
reaction to that. Her death penalty scarf. The short-lived
Gas Watch feature. The time she hit her throat on the
back of the breakdown chair (dont ask). The time I sent
her out in the rain again to take the perfect wet weather
shot. She was game for it all. And she could turn a story
on a dime, turn a phrase like a veteran and churn and
burn with the best.
But more importantly, you tend to get to know someone after spending about a decade and a half working
with them. The time I asked to look at her fingers
because I was trying to guess my girlfriends ring size
before I popped the question. Or the time I asked her if
she liked princesses when she was a child to determine
if I should be worried about my daughters new infatuation. You see, I respect Michelle for many reasons
her value as a reporter, columnist and fill-in editor kind
of goes without saying. But shes smart, tough and nononsense. Shes also funny as hell and actually very
kind all attributes Id like to see in my daughter when
she grows up.
Weve been through a lot together. I always knew this
day would come and am actually surprised it took this
long, but it doesnt make it any easier. Ill know well
be in touch, after all Michelles new job requires she
talk to the press. But it wont exactly be the same.
Some say change can be good. But sometimes its just
change. Im grateful I got to work with Michelle for so
long and that she not only made me a better editor, but a
better person.
***
A bit of housekeeping is also in order since some
might be wondering who will be filling the newlyvacated beats. Daily Journal prodigal son Bill Silverfarb
is returning to cover the county, courts, Redwood City
and San Carlos. Austin Walsh, who most recently covered education for Patch.com, will be taking over education, real estate, the Peninsula Health Care District and
the cities of Burlingame, Millbrae, San Bruno and South
San Francisco. Both Bill and Austin start Monday.
Samantha Weigel will continue to cover transportation,
the San Mateo County Harbor District and the cities of
San Mateo, Belmont, Foster City and Half Moon Bay.

NEW YORK Disappointing


results from Bank of America and
Citigroup tugged the stock market to
its fifth straight loss Thursday.
Oil prices continued their slide, and
U.S. government bonds jumped.
Weak revenue from trading pulled
down Bank of Americas profit 11 percent in the fourth quarter. The banks
earnings and revenue fell short of Wall
Streets estimates. BofAs stock sank
84 cents, or 5 percent, to $15.20.
Discouraging news on the global
economy and falling oil prices have
rattled investors recently, even as the
bull market for stocks closes in on its
sixth anniversary.
The stock markets fall is likely to
prove temporary, another pause in a
long climb higher, said Henry Smith,
chief investment officer at Haverford
Trust.
Bull markets dont die because of
age, he said. They die almost always
in anticipation of the next recession.
But where are the indications of that?
Despite slowing growth overseas,
the U. S. economy continues to
improve. Last week, the government
said that the unemployment rate
declined to 5.6 percent in December, a
six-year low. On Thursday, the New

York branch of the Federal Reserve


reported manufacturing expanded in
the region.
Lately, it has ... been the economy
versus the markets, said Jack Ablin,
the chief investment officer at BMO
Private Bank. Theres a divergence.
The financial markets are worried
about the impact of plunging oil
prices, at the same time the economic
backdrop in the U.S. is improving.
On Thursday, the Standard & Poors
500 index fell 18.60, or 0.9 percent,
to close at 1,992.67. The Dow Jones
industrial average dropped 106. 38
points, or 0.6 percent, to 17,320.71,
while the Nasdaq composite fell
68.50, or 1.5 percent, to 4,570.82.
A volatile day of oil trading ended
with crude falling $2.23 to end at
$46.25 a barrel. Earlier in the day it
jumped over $51. Brent crude, a benchmark for international oils, fell $1.02
to close at $47.67 in London.
Smith said he isnt troubled by the
drop in oil. Lower oil prices are good
for the vast majority of the economy,
he said. It cant be bad because consumers in the U.S. and globally benefit from lower energy costs.
With JPMorgan Chase posting a
drop in profits on Wednesday, the
fourth-quarter earnings season has had
a rough start. But that shouldnt come
as a surprise. Analysts have spent the

past few weeks trimming their forecasts. They now predict big corporations will report earnings growth of 4
percent, according to S&P Capital IQ,
down from forecasts of 6.6 percent on
December 1. Overall sales are expected
to rise just 2.1 percent, largely the
result of sliding revenue for oil companies.
Citigroup sank $1.82, or 4 percent,
to $47.23 following news that the
banks quarterly profit fell 86 percent.
The bank booked legal and restructuring charges at the end of last year to
cover costs tied to a number of investigations. Analysts had expected
stronger results.
In Europe, Frances CAC 40 climbed
2.4 percent, while Germanys DAX
gained 2.2 percent. Britains FTSE
100 rose 1.7 percent.
Switzerlands central bank rocked
currency markets on Thursday when it
abandoned efforts to keep the Swiss
franc artificially low against the euro.
The Swiss currency soared in response.
But Swiss stocks took a pounding on
the prospect of the countrys exports
becoming more expensive to overseas
buyers.
In Asia, Japans Nikkei 225 jumped
1. 9 percent. Chinas Shanghai
Composite surged 3.5 percent, and
Hong Kongs Hang Seng rose 1 percent.

Switzerland stuns markets by giving up on currency peg


By Pan Pylas
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LONDON Rarely has one statement


prompted such a dramatic move in currency
markets.
The Swiss franc achieved a turbo-charged
lift Thursday after the Swiss National Bank,
or SNB, ditched an increasingly expensive
policy to limit the export-sapping rise of
the currency. Within minutes of the early
morning announcement, the currency
spiked around a third against the euro and
the dollar while Swiss shares tanked,
prompting confusion and a fair degree of
anger across trading room floors.
The decision by the SNB to call time on
its efforts to prevent the euro from trading
below 1.20 francs was a huge surprise and
came amid mounting speculation that the
European Central Bank will next week back
a big stimulus program that will put more
euros in circulation which would further
dilute their value. That expectation has
pushed the euro down to near-decade lows

against the dollar.


As the outlook for the euro has darkened,
the cost for the Swiss central bank of
defending the peg by buying euros or selling francs has risen.
Though the timing of the Swiss decision
proved a surprise, most foreign exchange
experts thought the peg would have to be
abandoned, just as previous such efforts
had. In 1992, for example, the British
pound suffered similarly dramatic losses as
it crashed out of a fixed exchange-rate system that was then operating in Europe.
Like the Bank of England then, the Swiss
central bank faced a tough task controlling
its currency. That was evident in the francs
movements in the markets after it abandoned the peg. The euro plunged to a low
around the 0.85 francs mark in the minutes
after the decision, before recovering somewhat to trade 13 percent lower at 1.04
francs.
It wasnt just the euro that got caught up
in the francs frenzied moves. The dollar
initially plunged by a similar amount,

Apple, Google, other tech firms


to pay $415 million in wage case
By Michael Liedeke
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO Apple, Google and


two other Silicon Valley companies have
agreed to pay $415 million in a second
attempt to resolve a class-action lawsuit
alleging they formed an illegal cartel to
prevent their workers from leaving for better-paying jobs.
The settlement filed Thursday in a San
Jose, California, federal court revises a
$324. 5 million agreement that U. S.
District Judge Lucy Koh rejected as inadequate five months ago. Koh indicated that
she believed the roughly 64,000 workers
in the case should be paid at least $380
million, including attorney fees.
The lawsuit, filed in 2011, sought $3
billion in damages that could have been
tripled under U.S. antitrust law. Attorneys
for the workers decided to settle after concluding it would have been difficult to
prove the alleged conspiracy to a jury.
If Koh approves the latest settlement, it
would avoid a potentially embarrassing
trial over claims that Apple Inc., Google

Inc., Intel Corp. and Adobe Systems Inc.


secretly agreed not to recruit each others
employees from 2005 to 2009.
The alleged collusion stopped after the
U.S. Justice Department opened an investigation that culminated with an antitrust
complaint being filed against Apple,
Google and the other participating companies in 2010. The Justice Departments
case was settled without the companies
admitting any guilt or paying any fines.
The evidence gathered in the ensuing
class-action lawsuit has exposed Apple
and Google emails that have cast some of
their top executives in an unflattering
light.
Apples late CEO Steve Jobs is depicted
as the conniving ringleader of a scheme
designed to minimize the chances that the
top computer programmers and other talented employees would defect to other
technology companies. The lawsuit contends the secret no-poaching agreements orchestrated by Jobs suppressed the
wages of the employees, many of whom
were already making more than $100,000
annually.

though it also recouped some of its kneejerk


losses to trade 15 percent lower at 0.8884
francs.
For years central banks have tried to
avoid days like today by being transparent
and making moves like this over time while
drip feeding their intentions to the markets, said Craig Erlam, market analyst at
Alpari. The SNB have shown themselves
to be amateurs today and there are many
people that will suffer considerably as a
result.
Despite the backlash, the SNB will face
from those who are nursing potential losses
that could run into billions, many analysts
thought the decision was inevitable in light
of next weeks expected announcement by
the ECB to break new ground in its efforts
to inject life into the ailing 19-country
eurozone economy. Its stimulus package is
expected to be worth as much as 1 trillion
euros ($1.17 trillion).
The SNB clearly expected to see a huge
surge of inflows in the week ahead and saw
little reason to provide these buyers of

Google to stop consumer


sales of Glass to redesign device
SAN FRANCISCO Google will stop
selling its Internet-connected eyewear to
consumers until the company can develop a
more polished and affordable version thats
less likely to be viewed as a freakish device.
The sales moratorium on the nearly 2year-old Explorer edition of Google Glass
goes into effect Jan. 19. The decision
announced Thursday coincides with Glass
spin-off from the secretive Google X lab
where it was invented.
Glass will now operate in a division run
by veteran marketing executive Ivy Ross.
She will report to Tony Fadell, who runs the
smart-appliance maker Nest Labs that
Google bought for $3.2 billion last year.
Glass is a hands-free device featuring a
thumbnail-sized screen above the wearers
right eye. It cost $1,500 and raised privacy
concerns for its potential to secretly take
pictures and videos.

Litany of problems pushes


Target into giving up on Canada
MINNEAPOLIS Target is giving up on
its money-losing foray into Canada after
just two years, closing 133 stores and cutting loose more than 17,000 employees.
Target said it didnt see how it could stop

francs with an artificially cheap rate, said


Simon Derrick, chief currency strategist at
BNY Mellon.
The Swiss central bank argued that the
exceptional and temporary measure to
protect the Swiss economy was no longer
justified.
The peg, which was introduced in Sept.
2011, was an attempt to halt the rise of the
franc a traditional haven currency for
investors against the euro at a time when
the eurozone debt crisis was at its height.
The strong franc was then particularly problematic for Swiss exporters, who were
forced to drastically cut prices to remain
competitive.
Thursdays move prompted a painful 8.7
percent drop in Switzerlands stock market
as investors took fright at the worsening
outlook for Switzerlands traditional
exporters, such as those selling chocolate
or ski holidays.
And as in the eurozone, theres a growing
fear that the country will suffer a sustained
period of falling prices, or deflation.

losing money before at least 2021 on its
first international expansion. The closing
links Target with a series of other retailers
who have learned the hard way that the
northern border is tough to cross.
During a call with investors Thursday,
CEO Brian Cornell described the decision as
very tough.
What went wrong? Cracking the Canadian
retail market, about one-tenth the size of the
U.S. and right next door, looks simple.
Targets difficulties show its not.

Intel beats Street 4Q forecasts


SANTA CLARA on Thursday reported
fourth-quarter profit climbed by 39 percent
to $3.66 billion.
The Santa Clara-based company said it had
profit of 74 cents per share.
The results beat Wall Street expectations.
The average estimate of analysts surveyed
by Zacks Investment Research was for earnings of 66 cents per share.
The worlds largest chipmaker posted revenue of $14.72 billion in the period, also
topping Street forecasts. Analysts expected
$14.71 billion, according to Zacks.
For the year, the company said profit
increased 22 percent to $11.7 billion, or
$2.31 per share.

Edelman has come long way from CSM to Pats


By Howard Ulman

Wildcats to a 13-0 record as a senior.


On Sunday night, hell play in the AFC championship game against the Indianapolis Colts
(13-5) after leading the Patriots (13-4) with 92
receptions in the regular season and adding
eight against Baltimore.
Thats quite a journey for an undersized athlete
who had to go to the College of San Mateo for
one year to attract scholarship offers, received
just two from four-year colleges after that and
wasnt drafted until the final round in 2009.
Pollack, since promoted to head coach at San
Mateo, remembers Edelman as driven, hardworking and extremely elusive.

Hes very tenacious. Hes unrelenting,


Pollack said. If somebody tells him he cant do
something, all his energy goes into doing it
just to say, I told you so.
During Edelmans season at San Mateo,
Martin, the coach at Kent State at the time, told
him hed have a chance to compete for the quarterback job at the Ohio school.
Edelman jumped at it.
He has a really healthy chip on his shoulder, said Martin, now head coach at New

Carlmont girls soccer coach Tina Smith


said her main goal Thursday against Woodside
was to limit any kind of breakaway chances
for Wildcats super striker Jillienne Aguilera.
Mission accomplished as the Scots held
Aguilera without a goal for only the second
time this season.
My teams worries about that offense, and
for good reason, Smith said. We didnt want
to give up anything easy. We wanted to make
them work (for their goals).
Unfortunately for the Scots, Woodside
proved its more than a one-woman squad.
Sesayde Youngs rst-half strike from the top
of the penalty box was the games only goal
as the Wildcats remained undefeated in
Peninsula Athletic League Bay Division play
with a 1-0 victory over the Scots.
Its three points (in the standings). We
love three points, said Woodside coach Jose
Navarrete. Give credit to Carlmont. Thats
the only time this year [someone] held us to
one goal.
Smith said her strategy was to man mark
Aguilera with stoppers Veronica Pontis and
Amelia Armstrong, and then to have the rest
of the defense shut down the angles and prevent the Wildcats from making that deadly
through ball to Aguilera, who came into the
game with nine goals in three PAL games.
We practiced shutting down that pass,
Smith said. We were shutting down (passing)
lanes.
That made Youngs goal even more important in the eyes of Navarrete.
We have to look for other (scoring)
options and [Young] stepped up, Navarrete
said. Shes been waiting her turn. Shes capable of getting goals for us and taking pressure
off Jillienne.
But Carlmonts focus on defense allowed
Woodside (4-0 PAL Bay, 8-1 overall) to dominate most of the play in the rst half. The
Scots came out of their defensive shell a bit
more in the second half to even things up, but
never had really too many dangerous opportunities.

Woodsides Lauren Holland shields the ball from a Carlmont player during the Wildcats 1-0
win over the Scots in Belmont Thursday afternoon.

Sequoia has certainly had its ups-anddowns in recent years.


Two years ago, the Cherokees went undefeated in league to capture the Peninsula
Athletic League Ocean Division title. Last
year in the PAL Bay Division, they got clobbered by going winless through league play
and winning just two games overall on the
season.
This year, the Cherokees are poised to
make their way back to the top. Thursdays
3-0 win over Capuchino at Terremere Field
was a convincing step in that direction.
Sequoia (3-0 PAL Ocean, 6-2-2 overall) dominated play, allowing just one legitimate
offensive chance throughout to hand the
Mustangs (2-1, 4-4-1) their first loss in
Ocean Division play.
I think we have a strong team, Sequoia
head coach Melissa Schmidt said. We have
a lot of experience and theyre playing
incredibly well together.
With 12 seniors in the mix, the Cherokees
have plenty of experience. And they capitalize by spreading the ball around to a variety
of offensive weapons. In Wednesdays 2-1
win over South City, Kayla Funk and Ashlyn
Wray tabbed Sequoias two goals. Thursday
against Cap, two other players got on the
board in the first half before Funk added a
second-half insurance goal for the
Cherokees.
There's always a different person taking a
shot, Cherokees junior striker Alice
Mylod-Vargas said.
Mylod-Vargas scored the first goal to get
Sequoia on the board early. In the seventh
minute, Sequoia wrestled possession at midfield and saw Gennie Cheatham race up the
right sideline to gain a 2-on-1 advantage.
The sophomore sent a perfect pass into the
penalty box for a wide-open Mylod-Vargas,
who hammered a clean goal from 10 yards
out.
The defense was pulled out, so it left the
opening for me, Mylod-Vargas said.
Weve been working on communicating

Lady Mustangs making waves in Ocean Division


By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Capuchinos dramatic win Wednesday night


at Menlo-Atherton made things a whole lot
more interesting in the Peninsula Athletic
League South Division.
On paper, the Cap girls basketball team
(2-1 in PAL South, 7-7 overall) entered the
game as the underdog. M-A hadnt lost to
Cap in over 10 years, albeit with just three
matchups between the two in that time, a

result of the Bears playing in the upper PAL


Bay Division and the Mustangs in the lower
PAL Ocean prior to the North-South realignment of 2012-13.
As M-A head coach Markisha Coleman
pointed out though, the game of basketball
isnt played on paper.
It appears that theres a lot of competitive teams [in the PAL South], Coleman
said. What I tell my team is, no matter what
it says on paper, teams are going to come
out and compete.

Caps 54-53 win over M-AWednesday night


was one of the seasons most competitive
games in the PAL to date.
Entering into play, M-A seemed to be
emerging as an unstoppable force, much in
part to two standouts, sophomore center Ofa
Sili and senior forward Naomi Baer.
Neither Sili nor Baer were in the starting
lineup Wednesday night, however. Baer was
simply feeling under the weather and ultimately still got into the game in the second half to
help the Bears rally from a 14-point deficit to

nearly pull off a remarkable comeback.


Silis absence is much more a concern to MA. The sophomore injured her right knee
Saturday in the Bears victory over Sacred Heart
Prep. She has not so much as practiced with the
team since. The sophomore underwent an MRI
Wednesday, the results of which will not be
available until Friday, according to Coleman.
Were hopeful that its not anything
bad, Coleman said. Shes walking fine,

said Thursday, when he was formally introduced as Harbaughs successor. Im not trying to be that guy. Thats absolutely no disrespect to him. I am comfortable with who I
am.
Promoted to the head job on a four-year
deal despite never being an NFL coordinator, Tomsula is ready to make the leap just as
he is colorful, enthusiastic, humble and
unpolished.

The journeyman coach,


with 2 1/2 decades of
coaching experience at
various levels, emerged
as the surprising choice
of CEO Jed York and general
manager
Trent
Baalke following an
exhaustive search that
Jim Tomsula included names such as
Rex
Ryan,
Mike
Shanahan and hot commodity Denver offensive coordinator Adam Gase.
I dont believe I do anybody any good
trying to justify anything, Tomsula said.
Im not going to do that.
He is already working to build his coaching staff, with running backs coach Tom
Rathman the only expected holdover from
Harbaughs group. Baalke met with many of
the others early Thursday to find closure
in face-to-face meetings.
When the 49ers parted ways with
Harbaugh on Dec. 28, York said afterward he
wanted to find a teacher to lead the team forward and someone who would return the
49ers to winning with class in the wake of a
rash of off-the-field incidents and arrests in

recent years.
Theres a way you carry yourself,
Tomsula said. The second step winning
with class is how you conduct yourself.
Tomsula insists it starts with doing all of
the little things to take responsibility for
your own actions, and he said he presented a
proactive approach to York and Baalke
during the interview process. He considers
part of the solution for players with so
much so fast, being able to handle it, being
able to channel it.
He is a tremendous coach, as well as a
great guy, and I know hes going to help us
win, quarterback Colin Kaepernick said. I
cant wait to get the playbook in my
hands.
Perhaps the biggest challenge will be getting Kaepernick and the offense back on
track after a disappointing 8-8 season and
the first missed playoffs in four years.
Kaepernick is working out under the guidance of Kurt Warner and quarterback coaches
in Phoenix this winter.
Baalke made clear they would all work
together to build the best supporting cast
around Tomsula.
One thing Im confident in, were going

to do this together, and were going to do it


together from Day 1 on, Baalke said.
Baalke pointed to the fact each time the
49ers interviewed candidates many with
ample credentials he and York kept coming back to Tomsula as the one who could
check off every box they wanted checked.
At one point, Baalke stepped in to help
Tomsula make a point about coaching the
offense.
Somewhere in there, he said, Were
going to run the ball, Baalke said.
Tomsula has been a winning coach in NFL
Europe and always wanted more. The real
NFL back home, where he once lived in his
car trying to make ends meet as a low-level
assistant at his alma mater, Catawba
College in North Carolina.
Theres always an asterisk in front of
NFL Europe, theres always an asterisk
there, he said. Its awesome. I cant deny
that fact. Its wonderful. Theres also a
strong sense of responsibility. I get it, I do,
I get the decision. I get everything that
goes along with it, too. Its an honor. You
get somebody to step up for you like that,
step out there, and show you belief, you
want to do good for them.

San Jose loses appeal in As move


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO A federal appeals court upheld the dismissal of antitrust claims in a lawsuit by the city of San Jose
against Major League Baseball, which accused the sport of
illegally blocking a proposed move of the Oakland Athletics
to the area.
A three-judge panel of the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals
ruled unanimously Thursday that the claims were barred by
baseballs antitrust exemption, established by the U.S.
Supreme Court in 1922 and upheld in 1953 and 1972.
San Jose sued MLB in June 2013 for conspiring to block
the relocation. San Jose is in Santa Clara County, part of the
San Francisco Giants territory under MLBs constitution.
The city said the territory rules violated federal antitrust laws.
U.S. District Judge Ronald M. Whyte dismissed most of
San Joses claims in October 2013 but ruled the city could
move forward with its count that MLB illegally interfered
with an option agreement between the city and the As for
land.
The city of San Jose steps up to the plate to challenge the

baseball industrys 92-year old exemption from the antitrust


laws, Judge Alex Kozinski wrote. It joins the long line of
litigants that have sought to overturn one of federal laws
most enduring anomalies.
Kozinski said only Congress or the Supreme Court could
determine the fate of the exemption. In concluding, Kozinski
gave a nod to Ernest Thayers poem Casey at the Bat.
Like Casey, San Jose has struck out here, the judge wrote.
Judges Barry G. Silverman and Richard R. Clifton also sat
on the panel, which heard oral arguments in August.
San Jose Mayor Sam Liccardo said the city has nothing
but upside to continue to pursue this to the Supreme Court.
When the City Council decided to pursue this lawsuit, we
knew that success would likely require a ruling from the U.S.
Supreme Court, because only the Supreme Court can revisit
its century-old decision that created an anti-trust exemption
that no American industry other than Major League Baseball
enjoys, Liccardo said in a statement. San Jose should be
allowed to compete with other cities for major league teams,
and I expect the U.S. Supreme Court to affirm the nations fundamental predisposition toward fair and free competition.

QB Kevin Hogan to return to Stanford


By Antonio Gonzalez
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

STANFORD Stanford quarterback


Kevin Hogan will return to school as a fthyear senior, opting to make one more run
with the Cardinal next season instead of
entering the NFL draft or pursuing other
career paths.
Hogan announced his decision via Twitter
on Thursday, the nal day for early-entry
candidates to declare for the draft. A couple
hours later, junior cornerback Wayne Lyons
tweeted he also would return.
The school conrmed both would be back.
Some of the guys I talked to said to rely
on your gut and dont make a decision you
might regret down the road, Hogan said in
an article posted on the Stanford athletics
website. This is something I cant regret.
Coming back to Stanford really was a winwin situation for me. Im happy, and I want
to get back to work and get better.

CAP
Continued from page 11
but we dont yet know what happened.
Meanwhile, the Mustangs are emerging as
one of five legitimate players in the PAL
South Division race.
With Thursdays win, paced by a gamehigh 18-point performance by senior forward Brianna Deckman, Cap moved into a
four-way tie for second place with M-A,
Aragon and Sequoia. Burlingame and
Hillsdale are tied atop the division in the
early-season standings.
Like M-A, the Mustangs played a tough

Hogans return should


boost Stanfords chances
to contend for the Pac-12
title. It also delays plans
for his highly touted
backups,
freshman
Keller Chryst and sophomore Ryan Burns, to take
over the position.
Hogan helped stabiKevin Hogan
lize the program after
Andrew Lucks departure, leading the
Cardinal to consecutive conference championships and Rose Bowl berths in his rst
two years as the starter before he and the
program slid back this season. He has
thrown for 6,518 yards, 48 touchdowns and
21 interceptions.
Hogan is 24-8 as the starter.
Stanford won its nal three games this
season to nish 8-5, with Hogan playing
exceptional in each contest. That included
beating Maryland 45-21 in the Foster Farms
Bowl on Dec. 30 at Levis Stadium in Santa
Clara, California.

Hogan is on track to graduate in the


spring and had been weighing whether to
enter the draft, where he would likely have
been a late-round pick at best. There also
had been speculation he could transfer to a
school closer to his hometown of McLean,
Virginia, after his father, Jerry, died in
December of cancer something that hung
over Hogan all season but he never publicly
discussed.
Hogan said he never considered transferring and found those suggestions kind of
funny.
A lot of my decision wasnt necessarily
related to the football program, he said. It
was the school in general. I feel I can further
dedicate myself academically and possibly
get my masters degree next year. Theres no
better locker room in the country and I wasnt ready to leave these guys.
Had Hogan left, Stanford coach David
Shaw believed he had two capable successors.
Chryst was one of the countrys top pocket-passers coming out of high school before

redshirting this season, and the strongarmed Burns also wouldve challenged for
the job. Now both will likely compete to be
Hogans backup.

nonleague schedule this season. With an overall record currently at the .500 mark, the
Mustangs seven losses have come to teams
with a current combined record of 63-30.
We had a very tough preseason and I think
it got our girls ready for the likes of what is to
come in the league season, Cap head coach
Mike Dozier said. We hung in all those
games. Even though we lost, the girls had the
right attitude. They were like, we should have
won those games.
Caps emergence last year came as quite
some surprise. In Doziers first season, the
Mustangs qualified for the Central Coast
Section postseason for the first time since
2005-06 and with last years Division III
first-round win 70-61 over Live Oak
earned their first victory in a CCS playoff

game since 1978-79.


The teams newfound intensity with Dozier
at the helm should come as no surprise
though. Serving as a part-time assistant coach
at Mission College under head coach Corey
Cafferata, Dozier had plenty of time to learn
from one of the most successful girls basketball coaches in the PAL in recent years while
Cafferata was at Westmoor from 2002-08.
Deckman has been Caps star player in
every facet of the game. Shes come close to
tabbing a triple-double on several occasions
in points, assists and steals, but has yet to do
so. With the way Dozier raves about the senior
though, it seems to be just a matter of time
before she does.
And it was her steal in the waning seconds
of Wednesdays game that denied M-A an the

all-important final possession of the game.


She does a good job of anticipating the
plays in the passing lanes, Dozier said. She
plays possum a little bit.
Cap sophomore Jordan Ramirez added 16
points. Sophomore forward Ani Ukilifi
grabbed a game-high 12 rebounds.
The Mustangs will face another big test
Friday in hosting their first quad of the season, against Burlingame. Theres some bad
blood between the two teams, according to
Dozier. Last year, the teams split the season
series. But after Cap won the first game at
Burlingame, the Panthers returned the favor
on the Mustangs home floor despite Cap
leading after three quarters.
It should be pretty packed and pretty energetic, Dozier said.

Evan Crower, who played behind Hogan


the last two seasons, will be a fth-year
senior next season and could be a candidate
to transfer. Left tackle Andrus Peat and cornerback Alex Carter previously announced
they would forgo their nal year of eligibility at Stanford and enter the draft.
While the Cardinal are losing top playmaker Ty Montgomery and several starters
on defense to graduation, the offense should
be loaded.
Four of ve starters will be back on the
offensive line, and Hogan should have no
shortage of targets. Wide receiver Devon
Cajuste and electric playmaker Christian
McCaffrey will be back along with emerging tight ends Austin Hooper, Eric Cotton,
Greg Taboada and Dalton Schultz.

EDELMAN
Continued from page 11
but it drives him. And I dont think in
30 years of coaching Ive ever had a
player thats been more appreciative
than Julian of the opportunity we
gave him.
He texted me after Saturdays game
and said, Coach, I just want to thank
you for everything to give me the
opportunity to be where I am today.
Edelman got his NFL opportunity
when the Patriots drafted him in the
seventh round, the 232nd out of 256
players picked.
Playing behind Wes Welker, he
caught just 69 passes as he battled
injuries in his first four seasons.
While waiting his turn at wide receiver, Edelman returned three punts for
touchdowns one each in 2010,
2011 and 2012 showing elusiveness developed in spread offenses at
San Mateo and Kent State.
He made plays for us where you
just shook your head and said,
Wow, Pollack said.
After the 2012 season, Welker left
for Denver and Edelman became a free
agent before signing a one-year contract with New England.
His 105-catch season in 2013
earned him a four-year deal.
Everyone starts at a certain place,
but you earn what you get in the NFL.
The competition is tough, quarterback Tom Brady said. So a guy like
Julian, for example, who has fought
every single day of his life to get to
this point talk about something
that strengthened him over time
obviously his experience as a

younger athlete did.


He fought every day since he got
here and he doesnt stop now.
Edelman says hes self-motivated,
but also got a push from his father
while preparing for the NFL combine.
Id be done training and hed be
like, Did you outwork those guys?
Edelman said, and I was like, Dad, I
was running by myself. He goes,
Im not talking about those guys.
Im talking about the three kids that
are still in high school that are going
to be trying to take your job in three,
four years, five years.
I always try to think about (that)
kind of stuff.
In three years at Kent State,
Edelman threw for 30 touchdowns and
ran for 22.
His coach, Martin, took over in
2004 for Dean Pees. Hes the Ravens
coordinator whose defense gave up
Edelmans touchdown pass.
And this Sunday night, the Patriots
will face the Kent State quarterback
who preceded Edelman, Colts kickoff
and punt returner Josh Cribbs.
Ive never been around a more
competitive person than Julian,
Martin said. Its not even close.
Coach Bill Belichick demands maximum effort and, he says, no one works
harder than Edelman.
So even though the Patriots had never
used Edelmans pass play this season,
they kept practicing it until they found
just the right moment. And Martin, at
home in New Mexico, watched with
pride.
I told him I was glad to see he could
still throw a little bit, he said with a
laugh. Hes just really excited to be
where he is.

Gennie Cheatham drives past Cap midfielder Jennifer Ortega in Sequoia's 3-0 victory. The
sophomore had a goal and an assist.

SEQUOIA
Continued from page 11
and getting the ball to feet. Thats been a
majority of our goals this year, on the [cross
passes].
On the Cherokees following possession,
they quickly struck again. In the 10th minute
it was Cheatham who benefitted from a perfect
assist. Sequoia senior forward Sarah Huber
fished a ball deep out of the corner and threaded it to Cheatham 10 yards out from the left
goalpost and sent a shot to the opposite side
that deflected off the right goalpost and into
the net.
Even with the wealth of experience, Sequoia
is still finding its footing in integrating new
players into the mix. Cheatham is one of
those players in her first year at the varsity
level. Last year as a freshman, she served as a
team captain on the frosh-soph team and
scored in double-figures on the season to lead
the team.
Cheatham is fitting into the strong mix
with the varsity Cherokees nicely though.
And strong they are as they outmuscled
Capuchino by allowing just one shot on goal.
We have to be able to bring out our
strength, especially against a good team like
Capuchino, Cheatham said.
The alignment of the Cherokees back row
has been a work in progress this season.
Center defender Alexandra Kurland is a mainstay as a third-year starter. She is one of four

Sequoia players along with Huber, Phoebe


Hopp and Jackie Vargas who played for the
PAL Ocean Division champion team of 2013.
But the Sequoia defense really came together Thursday. First-year varsity starter Jenna
Pucel has anchored the middle with Kurland.
And sophomore Emma Leeper has settled in
since being called up from the frosh-soph
team Dec. 20 to replace the injured Abigail
Mejia.
All three of them did a great job, Schmidt
said. Theyve really been learning to work
together as a unit in the back. Thats just crucial.
Entering into Thursdays game, Cap had
outscored Ocean Division teams, Mills and
Terra Nova, 5-1. But Sequoias defense not
only dealt a shutout. It set the stage for the
offense by freeing up the attackers to do what
they do best.
Theyre allowing us to attack hard on
offense, Schmidt said.
Sequoia continued to attack in the second
half, breaking through for a final goal in the
72nd minute. Funk tabbed the goal with a
touch at the end of a nice drive by Rebecca
Melmon, who drove through the right side and
buzzed a shot through traffic. It deflected off a
Cap player and seemed on target to roll into
goal, but Funk chased it down to guide it in for
the score.
With the win, Sequoia takes over sole possession of first place in the PAL Ocean
Division. El Camino (2-0 in PAL Ocean) kept
pace Thursday as the only other undefeated
team in league after defeating Westmoor 2-1.

We didnt have a whole of shots, Smith


said.
Woodside, on the other hand, had plenty
threatening attacks and if not for the play of
Carlmont goalkeeper Lauren Racioppi, the
score could have been severely lopsided.
Racioppi made 13 saves, many of the spectacular variety and a couple from point-blank range.
She was phenomenal. If I was to give a game
a game ball, I would give it to her, Smith said
of Racioppis performance. She made some
huge saves.
There was no way, however, Racioppi was
going to make the save on Youngs goal
unless she grew about three inches instantly.
Carlmonts inability to clear the ball out of its
own end following a Woodside corner kick led
to Youngs tally in the 15th minute. Young
received the ball at the top of the penalty box
and after making a cutback move to lose her
defender, turned and red a shot high into upper
left corner of the net, just over the outstretched
hand of Racioppi.
The Wildcats continued their offensive assault

the rest of the half, with Alex Augulis wreaking


havoc on the right ank. Her speed and deft
footwork left many a Carlmont defender in her
wake as she consistently put dangerous crosses
into the Scots penalty box.
I told [the team] to give the ball to her and let
her work, Navarrete said.
Woodside continued to pressure Carlmont (22, 3-7) in the second half, but the Scots were a
little more offensive minded over the nal 40
minutes, and while it didnt translate to very
many opportunities, at least the Scots evened
up possession.
The second half, we looked better, Smith
said. [Woodside] deserved that one. They were
the better team today. They outplayed us.
Despite coming into the game on a threegame league winning streak, Navarrete was worried about Carlmont. And for good reason.
Before Woodsides ascension to the top of the
Bay Division, the Scots were the team to beat
and while the Wildcats have ruled the division
for the last several years, they always know if
they want to win a league title, they have to beat
Carlmont.
We were really prepared for this one. I told
the girls to expect the toughest game of the
year, Navarrete said. Carlmonts forwards are
as good as anybodys including Woodside.
Theyre going to make waves.

Paddington is sweet, cuddly


By Jocelyn Noveck
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Paddington Bear. How well we know him.


Hes cuddly, hes loyal, hes sensitive. Hes
well-traveled but loves to stay home,
too. And he can whip up a mean homemade
marmalade.
As Mom would say, whats not to love?
And one can say precisely the same of the
engaging new Paddington, written and
directed by Paul King and based of course on
the famous 1958 book by Michael Bond. It
doesnt try to be too clever. Or too sweet. Or
too dark, for that matter, though theres
plenty of mischief, thanks to Nicole

Kidman, channeling her inner villainess.


And it works. For parents looking for a
film thatll please them and their kids in
equal measure, Paddington is as
Goldilocks would say in that other bear
story just right.
The ingenuity in Kings approach at a
few points, his technique even recalls Wes
Anderson is apparent from the start. We
knew that Paddington (thats not his name,
at first) came from darkest Peru, but
Kings version shows us the backstory in
entertaining fashion. In the Peruvian jungle, a friendly British explorer befriends a
bear family and introduces them to certain
veddy veddy English inventions like

marmalade. When he leaves, he tells them


theyd always be welcome in London.
Years later, when an earthquake destroys
the bears home, orphaned Paddington
(well, thats not his name quite yet) decides
to set off for London on a boat, leaving his
elderly aunt (Imelda Staunton) behind at a
retirement home. He brings with him only a
suitcase filled with jars of marmalade, the
hat the explorer left behind, and a tag
around his neck: Please look after this
bear.
Arriving in London, though, our bear
(entirely computer generated, and sensitively voiced by Ben Whishaw) finds people
arent that welcoming its hard to even

get noticed, let alone immediately adopted


and taken to a nice home. Luckily, the
Brown family, alighting at Paddington
Station, does notice him. The rather uptight
Mr. Brown (a delightful Hugh Bonneville,
whom most of us know from Downton
Abbey) isnt keen to take him in for the
night, but the two kids are, as is their warmhearted mum (an equally delightful Sally
Hawkins.)
Once at home just for one night, Mrs.
Brown promises Mr. Brown, while they
help find the explorer friend from long ago
Paddington (so named after the station)

Nicole Kidman shows her silly side in Paddington

BEVERLY HILLS Nicole Kidman


knows most people dont consider her a
comedic actress.
In her 31-year career, her roles have
ranged from the morose to the deliciously
sadistic. There are a few straight comedies
in her resume, but Kidman is the first to

admit that she just doesnt get many offers to do


that type of work.
Shes won an Oscar.
Shes
worked
with
Stanley Kubrick, Jane
Campion, and Lars Von
Trier. So how did she end
up in a modest role as a
Nicole Kidman delightfully villainous

taxidermist in the childrens film


Paddington with a relatively unknown
director at the helm?
The answer is simple: She was asked.
The desire to run the gamut and be
diverse is something youre taught at drama
school, said Kidman on a recent afternoon
at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel. Were
trained in Shakespeare and then were
trained in Nol Coward and were trained in

mime classes. But a lot of times youre not


given the opportunity to explore the things
that youve cultivated.
For director Paul King, it was a no-brainer. But it wasnt Kidmans 1996 romantic
fantasy romp Practical Magic that he was
thinking of. Hed seen Gus Van Sants To
Die For and knew Kidman had to be his
Millicent.

MUSEUM GOTTA SEE UM


By Susan Cohn
DAILY JOURNAL SENIOR CORRESPONDENT

EGYPTIAN REVIVAL: AN EVERLAS TING ALLURE, AT THE S AN


FRANCIS CO AIRPORT MUS EUM.
One-hundred years of Egyptian-inspired
objects, including 19th-century mantel
clocks, ornate Victorian table stands and Art
Deco beaded purses, are on display in
Egyptian Revival: An Everlasting Allure, at
the San Francisco Airport Museum.
Egyptian culture first enchanted the West
when Cleopatra captured the hearts of legendary Romans Julius Caesar and Mark
Antony more than two thousand years ago.
Before long, Rome incorporated Egypt into
its empire (31 B.C.). Obelisks, Egyptianstyle architectural elements and sculpture
inspired by such figures as the Egyptian
deity Isis, emerged in Rome. Centuries
later, Napoleons Egyptian campaign
(1798-1801) ignited an inextinguishable
fascination with ancient Egypt.
Other significant events contributed to
the Wests fascination with Egypt, particularly in the early 1800s and in the later part
of that century. In 1822, French scholar
Jean-Franois Champollion deciphered
hieroglyphics when he translated the
Rosetta Stone. Obelisks were transported
from Egypt and raised in Paris, London and
New York. In 1869, the Suez Canal opened
in Egypt, connecting the Mediterranean and
Red seas. A number of worlds fairs included
Egyptian displays. Archaeologists and
scholars published accounts of their discoveries in Egypt throughout the century.
Theater productions, such as the highly
acclaimed opera Aida, set in ancient Egypt,
debuted in Cairo in 1871 and New York in
1873.
This exposure to Egypt inspired Egyptian
Revival. The design style permeated
Western decorative arts, furniture, jewelry
and architecture. Egyptian-inspired designs

provided an exotic alternative to other fashionable styles of the period. Obelisks,


hieroglyphs, sphinxes, pyramids, scarabs
and lotus blossoms were popular motifs.
Imagery was construed and adapted in different ways, from literal interpretations to fanciful artistic motifs.
In 1922, Howard Carters discovery of
King Tutankhamuns tomb and the extensive artifacts uncovered with it sparked
renewed enthusiasm for all things
Egyptian. Ancient Egypt influenced everything from commercial buildings, movie
theaters and films, to clothing, mass-produced items and advertisements. Decades
later, in the 1970s, world tours of the treasures of King Tutankhamuns tomb prompted
another wave of what scholars often refer to
as Egyptomania. No other ancient civilization has captivated the Western world in
quite the same manner. The publics love of
ancient Egypt remains eternal.
Egyptian Revival: An Everlasting Allure
is on display at Departures Level 3
Pre-Security through July 5. There is no
charge to view this exhibition.

LACY BEGINNINGS: CHRISTENING GOWNS AT THE LACE MUSEUM
IN SUNNYVALE. Exceptional handmade
lace adorns christening gowns, baby bonnets, bibs, mittens, head bands, blankets
and handkerchiefs from the collection of the
Lace Museum. Christening robes or gowns
have been popular for centuries and were
worn by both boys and girls. These slip
dresses were traditionally white for purity
and made in silk, satin or, in later years,
cotton. The gown had a long flowing skirt,
which fell from a short bodice with a low
neck and short sleeves. The special gowns
were adorned with beautiful lace, ribbons
and embroidery, including handmade tucks
and other features. After the ceremony, the
gown would be saved for the next child or
handed down from one generation to the
next, becoming a family heirloom. The

Lace Museums collection of gowns


includes those decorated with Ayrshire white
work from the 1840s, eyelet, ruching, bobbin lace, needle lace, pin tucks, stiletto
work and other hand-work techniques. The
Lace Museum is the only lace museum in the
western part of the United States and houses
hundreds of lacemaking tools, lace examples, books and other materials covering
the history of lace. The museum provides

to actually put the script in front of


Kidman. As King describes it, its a
process of being politely insistent.
Despite all the warnings that Kidman was
never going to say yes, as soon as she
heard the name Paddington, she jumped.
Kidman had grown up reading Michael
Bonds books in Australia and it just struck
a nerve.
Ultimately, King said, she was the easiest person to cast. She signed on in just 12
hours.
You dont often see the silly side of
Nicole and shes such a funny, easygoing
person, said King, who really put the
actress to the test. On day one, she was
hanging upside down on wires and it just
got more challenging from there.
I hope it gets a good response. Its

smart, said Kidman of the movie, excitedly talking about how the physical comedy
of the CG bear makes her two young daughters squeal with laughter.
Taken alongside a recent segment on
The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy
Fallon, where Kidman charmingly
revealed that the host had missed an opportunity to date her years ago (the YouTube
video has over 19 million views to date), it
might seem as though the actress who once
urinated on Zac Efron for a role, is in a new
phase of her career.
The past year was not exactly a stellar
one for the Oscar-winner either, with middling limited releases like the thriller
Before I Go To Sleep and the historical
drama The Railway Man, and the mysterious non-release of Grace of Monaco in

the United States.


Its sad, said Kidman of the Grace
Kelly drama. I put so much work into it. I
would have loved for it to have been
embraced.
But Kidman insists that shes not the
actor who makes strategic choices. If you
look at my career, its pretty random.
Even the Fallon bit was so not planned.
Still, she is taking the reins where she
can. Kidman and Reese Witherspoon
optioned the rights to the book Big Little
Lies, which is in development as a limited series. Shes also staring in and producing the adaptation of the quirky novel The
Family Fang.
My life is a roller coaster. My career is
a roller coaster. Some people get smooth
sailing. I never get that, she said.

bears head gets stuck in the toilet. Who


doesnt love a good toilet flood scene?
As the search for the explorer continues,
trouble rears its head. It seems that an evil
museum taxidermist named Millicent
(Kidman, with short, blunt-cut blonde hair
and an unhinged demeanor) has designs on
Paddington. She doesnt want to give him a
home she wants to stuff him, and store
him in a glass case. Just why will become

clear soon enough.


Meanwhile, all the Browns are falling for
Paddington, including the all-knowing
housekeeper (Julie Walters). Even the stuffy
old Mr. Brown there are clear echoes of
the dad in Mary Poppins here comes
round, and becomes one of Paddingtons
biggest defenders. As the showdown with
Millicent reaches its climax, it is Mr.
Brown who will utter the films warm, cud-

arent only about who youre born to.
Theyre about who you love.
And movies like this are easy to love,

Nominations add intrigue if HOME SALES


not diversity to Oscar race

Continued from page 1

By Jake Coyle
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

The Oscar nominations added intrigue


if not diversity to an Academy Awards
race by favoring one late-season release
(American Sniper) over another
(Selma).
The flip-flopping of fortunes, however, did little to dislodge the humble
coming-of-age epic Boyhood, which
has steadily grown into the movie to
beat in a little-seen Oscar field, closely
followed by Alejandro Gonzalez
Inarritus

Birdman.
The two films solidified themselves
as favorites with best-picture and bestdirector nominations. Boyhood
chalked up its expected six nominations, including supporting nods for
Patricia Arquette and Ethan Hawke. And
Birdman, (or the Unexpected Virtue of
Ignorance) landed a co-leading nine
nominations, including best actor for
Michael Keaton.
I dont care how much people tell
you: Its gonna happen. When it happens, youre thrilled, said Keaton
about his first nomination.
But the Oscar race the near-culmination Hollywoods ever-expanding
industrial complex called awards season
may have gotten more competitive
in Thursdays nominations.
Clint Eastwoods American Sniper

Budapest Hotel (nine nominations) and

opened up to become a weekly occurrence Tuesday evenings as more people stopped in to engage for $20 a session. The studio isnt open regularly,
but is open for activities based on the
class schedule.
The intimate setting is a change
from typical places because it blends
circle time with special art projects,
Eastman said.
The class schedule ranges from
workshops specializing in painting,
making mosaics, crafts, collages and
mandalas, a Hindu and Buddhist ritual

The Imitation Game (eight nominations) all emerged as heftier contenders,


while Selma largely fizzled.
Each joined a best-picture field that
also included the Stephen Hawking
biopic The Theory of Everything and
the music school psychodrama
Whiplash.
The modestly sized movies all
dwarfed by Hollywoods stampede of
bigger blockbusters at the box office
make for a classy but not particularly
high-wattage batch of nominees. That
may challenge host Neil Patrick Harris
to drive viewers to the Feb. 22 ceremony.
The nominees also amount to a distinctly white Oscars. All 20 of the nominated actors are white, which led to the
trending
Twitter
hashtag
OscarsSoWhite on Thursday.
Though Ava DuVernays civil rights
drama Selma was once seen as a major
contender, it landed just two nominations. (The second was for best song.)
David Oyelowo, who stars as Martin
Luther King Jr. in Selma, was surprisingly left out of best actor.
The poor showing of Selma (and on
Kings birthday no less) came after nagging criticism over its portrayal of
President Lyndon Johnson. Rev. Al
Sharpton said the lack of votes for the
drama about the voting rights movement was ironic and called the diversity
of the nominations overall appalling.
Its a nightmare scenario for the
Academy of Motion Pictures, which has

in recent years sought to diversify its


ranks. It also comes a year after the bestpicture win for 12 Years a Slave, during which there was much chest-thumping about Hollywoods thawing closemindedness.
Whereas the late December arrival of
Selma appeared to hurt its chances,
similar timing was on target for Clint
Eastwoods
Navy
SEAL drama
American Sniper. Bradley Cooper,
who plays lethal marksman Chris Kyle
in the film, seemed to take Oyelowos
best-actor spot.
Wes Andersons old Europe caper The
Grand Budapest Hotel, which also won
best comedy or musical at the Globes,
has emerged as the most unexpected
awards heavyweight. It managed nine
nominations without a single acting
nod and was instead repeatedly cited for
Andersons meticulous craft in directing, production design, makeup and
screenplay.
The Grand Budapest Hotel (opening
all the way back in March) is also the
most lucrative best-picture entry, with
$59.1 million at the North American
box office. (That, though, will soon
change after American Sniper expands
nationwide this weekend.)
Box-office hits were scarce.
Christopher Nolans Interstellar
reeled in five nominations in technical
categories. David Finchers popular and
well-reviewed Gone Girl managed
only a best-actress nomination for
Rosamund Pike.

symbol, to a new week-long camp for


girls, which is still in its experimental
stages.
The girls camp is called The Tribe
and will focus on creating a space
where girls ages 8-11 will drum, meditate and write in journals. Eastman recognized the need for something more
personal for young girls, and said that
they need a strong sense of self to
move through society confidently.
The camp will focus in on themes such
as personal body image, nature appreciation, music, storytelling and creative expression. Its a spiritual
adventure, Eastman said. Its so
much better when you just get out of
the world for a while and to just take a
breath and to take a break.
Lakota Moon has had different types

of workshops exclusively for girls


ages 9-13. They have had meditation,
art classes and drumming for girls and
combine sacred circle time with art.
The welcoming studio has a garden
in the backyard, couches and displays
of collaborative art pieces from past
workshops. Paintings include portraits of women with crowns and blue
hair and mosaic pots covered in jewels.

and the lowest level since October 2010.
You dont want to extrapolate too much from one
month but the numbers suggest regular buyers are starting
to step up, said CoreLogic DataQuick analyst Andrew
LePage.
Tight inventories kept a lid on sales. The California
Association of Realtors said Thursday there was a 3.3month supply of unsold single-family homes in the state
last month, down from 4.4 months in November and 3
months in December 2013. A normal supply is considered
five to seven months.
Analysts said they didnt anticipate any surge in home
construction and that it was unclear if there would be
enough sellers to satisfy demand. Selma Hepp, senior
economist for the Realtors group, said inventories
improved throughout the year but fell in December as buyers snapped up remaining supplies.
The median sales price in the San Francisco Bay Area
was $603, 000, little changed from $601, 000 in
November and up 9.9 percent from $548,500 in December
2013, CoreLogic DataQuick said. There were 7,456 homes
sold in the nine-county region, up 24.2 percent from
November and up 14.1 percent from December 2013.
The median sales price in Southern California was
$415,000, barely changed from $412,000 in November
and up 5.1 percent from $395,000 in December 2013. It
was the smallest annual price increase in percentage terms
since April 2012. There were 19,205 homes sold in the
six-county region, up 22.8 percent from November and up
4.3 percent from December 2013.
December sales are typically higher than the previous
month but the numbers alleviated concerns after an unusually weak November.
Theres lots of solid job growth and people are just
more confident, said Christopher Thornberg, founding
partner of Beacon Economics, a Los Angeles-based consulting firm. I think November was a blip. December is
back on trend.

learning the woman worked for him
since 2011 and she tried leaving in
July 2013.
However, Gaines threatened to burn
down his victims home and her parents even obtained a restraining order,
Wagstaffe said.
After his arrest, the woman reportedly continued visiting him in jail and

placed money on his books. Gaines


told the Probation Department she was
still his girlfriend and not an abused

Wagstaffe said.
Gaines was originally charged with
several charges including human trafficking but, on his November jury trial
date, pleaded no contest to felony
counts of pimping and witness dissuasion. He also admitted his prior strike
in return for a flat eight-year sentence.
Wagstaffe said Gaines case and history make him unsuitable for the

The defendant is ... a convicted
woman abuser and has a prior conviction for shooting two people which
garnered him a 13-year prison sentence. In our view, clearly inappropriate to make special efforts to allow

All right, title, and interest conveyed and now held by the trustee in the hereinafter described property under and pursuant to a Deed of Trust described as
Note: Because the Beneficiary reserves the right to bid less than the total debt owed, it
is possible that at the time of the sale the opening bid may be less than the total debt.

written request to commence foreclosure, and the undersigned caused a Notice of Default and Election to Sell to be recorded in the county where the real property is located.
NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property
lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction.
You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a
trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the
property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior
lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title
to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of
outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder's office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender
may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property.
NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be
postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information
about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a
courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date
has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of
this property, you may call (855) 427-2204, visit this Internet Web site http://www.altisource.com/MortgageServices/DefaultManagement/TrusteeServices/Sales.aspx using
the file number assigned to this case 2013-05552. Information about postponements
that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not
immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The
best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.
