California ends
2013 as driest
year on record
San Francisco recorded 5.59 inches of
rain which is 18 inches below normal
By Alicia Chang
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES Aswath of California closed out 2013
as the driest year on record, marked by above-normal tem-
peratures and thirsty reservoirs.
While a drought has not been declared, some communities
urged residents to conserve water.
Dozens of cities saw historically parched conditions this
year, setting new marks in record-keeping that in some
cases dates back more than a century.
Downtown Los Angeles received a meager 3.60 inches of
rain since Jan. 1, the driest calendar year since 1877.
Normally, downtown would be soaked with about 15 inches
of precipitation.
Similarly, San Francisco recorded just 5.59 inches of rain
since the beginning of the year, 18 inches below normal.
Sacramento is 14 inches below average after receiving 6.13

Belmonts newest police ofcer
made his debut arrest after just six
weeks on the job during a daring
chase that helped San Mateo
police track down a suspected bur-
glar.
But this talented ofcer wont be
seen driving a patrol car or hold-
ing a weapon; his strengths are in
his nose.
Kilo is Belmonts 2-year-old
German shep-
herd who
helped appre-
hend Travell
Council, 20, a
suspect in a
string of vehi-
cle burglaries
who allegedly
assaulted a San
Mateo police
ofcer and ed on Christmas Eve,
according to Belmont police
Capt. Pat Halleran.
San Mateo police set a perimeter
after Council fled on foot then
called in Belmonts K-9. Kilo was
able to track the smell to a ladder
that led to the roof of a business
on the 200 block of Baldwin
Avenue where police found
Council hiding, Halleran said.
[San Mateo police chased
Council] for several blocks and
then lost him. They might have
found him if they kept searching,

and issued the Emancipation
Proclamation, declaring that slaves in

should have a new year. It is that we should

new backbone, new ears and new eyes.

but the dog picked up the scent right
away and tracked him to the backyard
to the base of a ladder, Halleran said.
Canines arent just used for appre-
hending suspects, they can also help
nd those who are missing, evidence a
person might discard and drugs,
Halleran said.
We use [dogs] primarily for their
ability to smell. Theyre ability to
smell is about 7,000 times stronger
than ours, Halleran said.
Police canines typically spend about
six weeks undergoing extensive train-
ing and Kilo will head back to school
sometime in April to learn how to sniff
out narcotics, Halleran said.
They can be used for nding not
only suspects, but lost people and evi-
dence. Then after he goes to narcotics
school, hell hopefully be nding nar-
cotics for us too, Halleran said.
As a professional, Kilos upfront
cost was about $8,000. However,
throughout a dogs seven- to eight-
year career, the department pays for
food, veterinary costs and further
training, Halleran said. The dog is
considered city property yet, when its
time for him to retire, the city depreci-
ates his value to a dollar and sells him
to his human counterpart, Halleran
said.
Kilo is currently working a regular
12-hour patrol shift from about 7 p.m.
to 7 a.m. and is always with his han-
dler Officer Dan Friedman, Halleran
said. Police officers go through an
extensive review to be partnered with a
police canine and are equipped with a
special patrol car, Halleran said.
Friedman spent some time with the
departments previous dog Nitro
before it retired in 2012 and will make
an excellent partner for Kilo, Halleran
said.
Police canines contribute to the
safety of ofcers and he too had his
very own canine partner between the
mid-80s and early 90s, Halleran said.
I know that there were numerous
ghts that I didnt get involved in just
because I had the dog; because there are
people who dont want to mess with
the dog. Ive had armed people surren-
der to me because I came with the dog,
Halleran said.
Police canines are intimidating
while theyre on the job; but theyre
not inherently vicious, theyre highly
trained and t in well with handlers
families, Halleran said.
I had [my dog] for seven years, it
was the best job I ever had in police
work, Halleran said. Its great being
able to have a partner like that every
day you go to work. Its a lot of work
because theyre with you all the time,
but its very rewarding.

inches of rain this year.
The records were not to become of-
cial until midnight, but there was not a
drop of rain in the forecast for the next
several days.
Its been pitiful, said Bob
Benjamin, a forecaster for the National
Weather Service in Monterey, Calif.
Its a concern, but we do have several
months to catch up.
December is typically one of the
wettest months, but a stubborn dome
of high pressure has steered storms
away from California for the past
month. While the country shivered
during Christmas, Californians
ocked to the beach and basked in sum-
mer-like temperatures.
The dry spell is not all good news.
The lack of rainfall does not bode
well for the winters rst snow survey
that will be released on Friday. Real-
time readings of the water content in
the snowpack which supplies much
of Californias water reveal its
only 20 percent of normal.
Many of the states major reservoirs
are below average for the month.
Shasta Lake, the states largest reser-
voir, is currently at 37 percent of its
total capacity. Folsom Lake recently
dipped below 20 percent of its capaci-
t y, marking a historic low for the
month. This triggered some communi-
ties in the Sacramento-San Joaquin
Delta region to issue water conserva-
tion orders.
The Northern California city of
Folsom recently mandated that resi-
dents cut water consumption by 20
percent. Sacramento County asked
unincorporated areas to voluntarily
reduce water use by the same amount.
State water managers are also dis-
cussing transferring water from places
with relative abundance to communi-
ties facing critical shortages.
Even before the state was gripped by
record dryness, several cities, includ-
ing Santa Monica and Long Beach in
Southern California, have planned to
reduce their dependence on imported
water in the coming years by maximiz-
ing groundwater supplies, harvesting
stormwater and increasing recycled
water distribution.
Despite an arid year, forecasters said
the rainy season is not over yet. In
past years, a dry December gave way to
storms in January.
Or we can get a miracle March that

NEW YORK Jerry Seinfeld loves
cars. Hes fond of coffee. And, of course,
hes a comedian who loves to talk come-
dy.
But the inspiration for his online talk
show, Comedians in Cars Getting
Coffee (wherein he and a fellow comedi-
an crack wise while powered by a car and
caffeine), was inspired by an episode of
his eponymous 1990s sitcom.
In that memorable episode, Jerrys
sad-sack pal, George, decided success
might await him if he lived his failed life
in the opposite manner.
That, recalls Seinfeld in a recent
interview, gave me
the idea to create a
talk show that was
the opposite of the
typical show.
With a typical
talk show, he
explains, you have
to go to a studio. You
have to tell them in
advance what youre
going to talk about. You have to dress
up. You have to put on makeup. Its very,
very organized.
I thought, maybe theres a different
way than being stuck on a couch: Outside
and moving is the opposite of inside and
still.
That, he sums up, is where it
began.
Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee
launched on the Crackle digital network
in 2012, and its third season hits the
road Thursday with Seinfeld joining
Louis C.K. for a cup of joe after a zany
ride on a clown-car-scale 1959 Fiat
Jolly.
I pick you up at your house and we lit-
erally go out for a cup of coffee. Future
ride-alongs include Patton Oswalt,
Howard Stern, Tina Fey, Todd Barry and
Jay Leno.
I wanted to make a show that people
would like to be on, instead of groaning
and going, Yeah, all right, Ill do it,
said Seinfeld.

WASHINGTON U.S. home prices rose
in October from the previous year at the
fastest pace in almost eight years. But price
gains slowed in most U.S. cities from
September to October, suggesting the
increases are leveling off.
The Standard & Poors/Case-Shiller 20-
city home price index rose 0.2 percent from
September to October, down from a 0.7 per-
cent increase from August to September.
Monthly price gains slowed in 18 of the
20 cities tracked by the index. And prices
declined in nine cities, including Chicago,
Denver, and Washington.
For the year, prices are still strong,
reecting big gains in earlier months. They
have risen 13.6 percent over the past 12
months, the fastest since February 2006.
Annual returns have been in double-digit
territory since March 2013 and increasing,
said David Blitzer, chairman of the S&P
Dow Jones index committee. However,
monthly numbers show we are living on
borrowed time and the boom is fading.
The Case-Shiller index covers roughly
half of U.S. homes. It isnt adjusted for sea-
sonal variations, so the change partly
reects slower buying in the fall. The index
measures prices compared with those in
January 2000 and creates a three-month
moving average. The October gures are the
latest available.
The housing market has been recovering
since 2012 and has helped drive economic
growth over the past year.
But the gains have slowed in recent
months, as increases in mortgage rates and
home prices have crimped affordability. The
partial government shutdown in October
also delayed some sales.
Sales of existing homes have fallen from
September to November, the National
Association of Realtors said earlier this
month.
Despite the declines, home re-sales
should reach 5.1 million in 2013, the best
total in seven years, the Realtors forecast.
Thats 10 percent higher than 2012. But it
is still below the 5.5 million that is consis-
tent with healthier housing markets.
Strong price gains in 2013, fueled in part
by a limited supply of homes for sale, may
be pricing some buyers out of the market.
Prices are up more than 19 percent year over
year in Atlanta, Las Vegas, Los Angeles,
San Diego and San Francisco, according to
the Case-Shiller index.
Mortgage rates have also risen by rough-
ly a full percentage point since the spring,
though they remain low by historical stan-
dards. Mortgage buyer Freddie Mac said last
week that the average rate on the 30-year
loan is 4.48 percent.
West Sacramento
company recalls cashew cheese
WEST SACRAMENTO ACalifornia com-
pany is voluntarily recalling all avors of
its cashew cheese because it might be con-
taminated by salmonella.
The Cultured Kitchen of West Sacramento
said the affected cheese includes all those
with expiration dates until April 19, 2014.
It was sold in 8-ounce round containers at
natural food stores and farmers markets in
the Sacramento Valley, San Francisco Bay
Area and Reno, the company said Tuesday.
The Cultured Kitchen said the recall was
initiated after it was suspected that raw
materials used to make the cashew cheese
could have been contaminated with a spe-
cific strain of salmonella found almost
exclusively in Southeast Asia, where the
companys cashews are sourced.
The listed avors are herb, smoked ched-
dar, pepper jack, habanero cilantro lime,
pesto, basil pesto and white cheddar.

Hospital wont aid
transfer of girl on ventilator
ACalifornia hospital is unwilling to allow
an outside doctor to t a 13-year-old declared
brain dead after tonsil surgery with the breath-
ing and feeding tubes that would allow her to
be safely transferred to another facility.
Lawyer Douglas Straus said Tuesday that
Childrens Hospital Oakland would not per-
mit the procedures on its premises because
Jahi McMath is legally dead in the view of the
doctors who have examined her.
But Straus reiterated in a letter to the lawyer
representing McMaths mother that the hos-
pital would release the girls body as soon as
her family provided a detailed plan about
accomplishing the move.

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

U.S. House Speaker John Boehner , second right, sitting with his wife Debbie, second left,
attend the lighting of the U.S. Capitol Christmas Tree in Washington, D.C.
By Alan Fram
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON It says a lot about House
Speaker John Boehners rough 2013 that
even friends debate when the low point hit.
Some say it was Jan. 3, the rst day of the
113th Congress. With the Ohio Republicans
family watching from the House gallery, a
dozen deant GOP lawmakers refused to back
his bid to be re-elected speaker. The mini-
rebellion fell short but it delivered an embar-
rassing rebuke from conservatives.
To others the nadir came in September.
Thats when Republicans ignored his advice
and embraced a politically disastrous strate-
gy of partially shutting down the govern-
ment in a futile effort to force repeal of
President Barack Obamas prized health care
law.
Boehner, 64, still has serious problems
with tea party conservatives inside and out-
side Congress that limit his power. But many
say he stabilized his standing among his
Republicans in the nal weeks of 2013 and
that he ends the year stronger than ever with
them.
The speaker started out, like the
Republican Party, really in a ditch, said Ron
Bonjean, a GOP consultant and former con-
gressional leadership aide. By the time the
year was over, Republican lawmakers
learned, If they listen to him, he can guide
them correctly.
Boehners ups and downs underscore the
difculties of managing a narrow 232-201
GOP majority with two vacancies. The
2010 and 2012 freshman classes tea party
members would be tough for any leader to
control, Democrats and Republicans agree.
Octobers 16-day partial government shut-
down ended in a GOP defeat that damaged
Boehners party in public opinion polls but
won him the respect of GOP colleagues. The
12-term House veteran let conservatives play
out their ill-fated effort to dismantle the
health care law, and his warnings proved cor-
rect.
At years end, House Republicans voted
overwhelmingly in favor of a bipartisan
budget deal that will likely avert a govern-
ment closure for the next two years, enabling
Republicans to spend the 2014 election year
on offense attacking Democrats over their
widely unpopular health care law.
I think his stock has risen tremendously,
and certainly he has great security as our
leader and our speaker, conservative Rep.
John Fleming, R-La., said of Boehner at the
conclusion of the October shutdown.
He needed to demonstrate, not only to our
membership but probably to the Republican
base outside Washington, that he was willing
to go as far as possible and maybe farther
than was prudent in pursuit of conservative
goals, added Rep. Tom Cole, R-Okla., a
Boehner supporter. And he was spectacular-
ly vindicated, where it ended up.
Speaker John Boehner ends
rough year on a high note
By Ricardo Alonso-Zaldivar
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON All things good, bad and
unpredictable converge with the new year for
President Barack Obamas health care over-
haul as the laws major benets take effect,
along with an unpopular insurance mandate
and a risk of more nerve-wracking disruptions
to coverage.
The changes bring big improvements for
some, including Howard Kraft of Lincolnton,
N.C. Apainful spinal problem left him unable
to work as a hotel bellman. But hes got cov-
erage because federal law now forbids insurers
from turning away people with health prob-
lems.
I am not one of these people getting a pol-
icy because Im being made to, Kraft said. I
need one to stay alive.
Whats good for millions like Kraft is
secured through what others see as an imposi-
tion: requiring virtually every American to
get covered, either through an employer, a
government program, or by buying a plan
directly.
But the health care headlines early this year
could come from continued unpredictable con-
sequences of the insurance programs messy
rollout.
The consumer-facing side of the
HealthCare.gov website appears to be largely
xed with 2.1 million enrolled through
federal and state websites. But on the back
end, insurers say they are still receiving thou-
sands of erroneous sign-ups from the govern-
ment.
That means early in the year insured
patients could go for a medication rell or
turn up in the emergency room only to be
told there is no record of their coverage.
One of the main worries is over certain
error-tainted enrollment records that insurers
call orphans and ghosts.
Orphans are sign-ups that the govern-
ment has a record of, but they do not appear in
insurer systems. Insurers say those customers
never left the governments orphanage to
go and live with the carrier they selected.
Ghosts are new customers that the insurer
does have a record of, but mysteriously the
information does not appear in the govern-
ments computers.
The Obama administration says the rate of
such errors has been dramatically reduced, and
insurers agree. The catch is that the volume of
sign-ups has surged in the meantime, which
means even with a lower error rate the number
of problem cases keeps growing. And there is
no automated way to clear up mistakes quick-
l y.
Some people are actually going to start
using their coverage Jan. 1, and that is a good
thing for them, said Mark McClellan, who
oversaw the rollout of Medicares prescrip-
tion drug benet a program that also had
its share of issues. But there are going to be
problems for any number of people who
thought they had signed up, and it wont work
right off the bat. It would be particularly dis-
ruptive for people in the midst of treatment.
Anticipating disruptions, major drug store
chains like CVS and Walgreens have
announced they will help customers who face
coverage glitches, even providing temporary
supplies of medications without insisting on
up-front payment. Many smaller independent
pharmacies are also ready to help.
Obamas tarnished health
care law at a crossroads
There are going to be
problems for any number
of people who thought they
had signed up, and it wont
work right off the bat. It would be
particularly disruptive for people
in the midst of treatment.

SALT LAKE CITY Utah took
its ght against gay marriage to
the U.S. Supreme Court on Tuesday,
asking the high court to suspend
same-sex unions that became legal
when a judge struck down the
states voter-approved ban.
The heavily Mormon state wants
the marriages to stop while it
appeals a judges decision, which
said banning gay couples from
marrying violates their right to
equal treatment under the law.
In papers led Tuesday, the state
asked Justice Sonia Sotomayor to
overturn a decision that has led to
more than 900 gay marriages in
Utah. Sotomayor handles emer-
gency requests from Utah and other
Rocky Mountain states.
Sotomayor responded by setting
a deadline of by noon Friday for
legal briefs from same-sex cou-
ples. She can act by herself or get
the rest of the court involved.
Numerous same-sex marriages
are now occurring every day in
Utah, Utah lawyers complain in
the ling. Each one is an affront
not only to the interests of the
state and its citizens in being able
to dene marriage through ordinary
democratic channels, but also to
this courts unique role as nal
arbiter.
Also Tuesday, the Utah Attorney
Generals Ofce advertised a formal
bid request to outside law rms for
help preparing the appeals.
State ofcials have said it could
cost $2 million, bringing criti-
cism from a lawyer for couples who
sued to overturn the ban and say
Utah should give up the ght.
We are disappointed that Utah
will spend millions of dollars in
taxpayers money, to attempt to
reinstate laws which deny due
process and equal protection to all
of Utahs citizens, the lawyer,
James Magleby, said Tuesday.
Utah insists that states have the
authority to define marriage as
between a man and woman.

CHULA VISTA Mexican
license plates are common in park-
ing lots of shopping malls in U.S.
border cities. They will be even
more familiar after Mexico raises
its federal sales tax in border
regions to match the rest of the
country, say merchants and shop-
pers. The increase to 16 percent
from 11 percent, which takes effect
Wednesday, has sparked large
protests on the Mexican side of
the border. Facebook pages with
secessionist tones have generated
about 200,000 likes. Thousands
have signed petitions to challenge
the tax hike in court.
The Mexican government says
the two-tiered tax structure, which
was introduced decades ago to
make border cities competitive, is
no longer justied. Others say the
increase may backre by driving
more shoppers north of the border,
harming the economy and raising
less tax revenue than anticipated.
We dont compete against the
rest of Mexico, we compete
against the American economy,
said Juan Manuel Hernandez, pres-
ident of the Tijuana Business
Coordinating Council, an umbrel-
la group of business chambers.
U.S. border regions like
Californias Imperial Valley
which has three Wal-Mart
Supercenters and only 175,000
residents have long depended
on Mexican shoppers who buy
everything from gasoline to gro-
ceries. Brand-name clothing and
electronics are perennial draws for
Mexicans seeking products that
are more expensive or hard to nd
south of the border. Mexican shop-
pers spend more than $4.5 billion
a year in Texas border cities,
according to the Federal Reserve
Bank of Dallas. Fed economists
estimated in March that Mexican
border crossers account for 58 per-
cent of retail sales in Laredo and 42
percent in McAllen.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CAIRO Egypts interim government
has ordered the assets of more than 500
Muslim Brotherhood and Islamist leaders
seized including those of the countrys
ousted president as part of an ever-tight-
ening crackdown on the group, senior judi-
cial and security ofcials said Tuesday.
The escalation came as the military
vowed to confront the forces of terrorism
and darkness and protect the upcoming
Jan. 14-15 vote on Egypts draft constitu-
tion. Prime Minister Hazem el-Beblawi
called on Egyptians to head to the polls as
their top national duty, saying that a
heavy turnout is the only guarantee of a
successful vote.
Abdel-Azim el-Ashri, a Justice Ministry
spokesman, said that a ministerial invento-
ry committee ordered the movable and
immovable properties of 572 Muslim
Brotherhood leaders seized. Another Justice
Ministry ofcial said leaders on the list
included toppled President Mohammed
Morsi and his family, as well as provincial
Brotherhood leaders and members of its
General Guidance Bureau, which is the
groups executive body.
Asecurity ofcial said the list also includ-
ed female Muslim Brotherhood members
like Azza el-Garf and wife of leader Khairat
el-Shater and his daughter. He said other
Islamist leaders include Assem Abdel-
Maged, the leader of Gamaa Islamiyah,
which waged an anti-government insur-
gency in 1990s against autocrat Hosni
Mubarak.
The two ofcials said that the list includes
those indicted in cases of inciting violence
and those are under investigation or those
who could be investigated.
The order is part of a wider state crack-
down on the Brotherhood, rst banned by a
court order in September and declared a ter-
rorist organization by the military-backed
interim government last week. The court
order allowed the government to form the
committee that inventoried of the groups
nances and ordered its conscation.
Hundreds of Brotherhood members have
been arrested during protests and the
Brotherhoods daily newspaper, Freedom
and Justice, also was suspended after securi-
ty forces conscated Thursdays edition.
The government made the terrorist des-
ignation by linking the Brotherhood to a
wave of recent militant attacks targeting
security forces without publicly presenting
any evidence backing its claim. The move
signaled a new era of zero tolerance of the
group and ended any reconciliation efforts.
In the latest arrest, Egypts ofcial news
agency said former Morsi spokesman
Yasser Ali was arrested in an apartment in
Cairo late hours Tuesday. Its not clear what
accusations Ali faces as he was not known
to be involved in decision-making before
he was removed from his post as a
spokesman while Morsi was still in power.
He was appointed as head of information
center afliated to the Cabinet.
The group denies being involved in the
attacks and continues to hold near-daily
protests demanding the reinstatement of
Morsi, toppled in a July 3 military coup
after millions rallied against him. Islamic
militant groups have claimed responsibili-
ty for the bombings and shootings. During
his year-long presidency, Morsi allied with
hard-line Islamists and held talks with mili-
tants in the Sinai Peninsula to negotiate a
truce.
The government decision comes as secu-
rity authorities are on alert for possible
attacks during New Years Eve or Jan. 7,
when Coptic Christians mark Christmas.
They also fear the Brotherhood could dis-
rupt the coming constitutional referendum.
In most recent attack, a military ofcial
said that unidentied militants blow up a
gas pipeline in central Sinai Peninsula late
Tuesday. The pipeline feeds cement facto-
ries in the region with natural gas, the of-
cial said.
The officials spoke on condition of
anonymity because they were not author-
ized to speak to journalists.
A statement posted Tuesday on the
Facebook page of military spokesman Col.
Ahmed Mohammed Ali promised the armed
forces will not let the forces of darkness and
terrorism terrorize the sons of the Egyptian
people or obstruct the march toward the
upcoming referendum.

BANGUI, Central African Republic
Thousands of angry people ooded the run-
way of the international airport in the
chaotic capital of Central African Republic,
shouting slogans against the nations
Muslim president, who grabbed power in a
coup nine months ago.
French forces deployed at the airport were
unable to stop them and international
ights appeared to have been suspended.
Central African Republic has been in a
state of near-anarchy since an attack on the
capital, Bangui, earlier this month by a
Christian militia aiming to overthrow
Michel Djotodia, the Muslim coup leader.
That attack unleashed a wave of communal
violence.
The number of displaced people in Bangui
has increased 70 percent in the past two
weeks, from 214,000 to 370,000, accord-
ing to the U.N. Ofce for the Coordination
of Humanitarian Affairs. Between 70,000
and 100,000 people have sought refuge at
the airport, the agency said in a statement
Tuesday.
Until now, the refugees, mostly
Christians, had been living peacefully
under pieces of plastic on the edge of the
airport.

LOCAL 8
Wednesday Jan. 1, 2014 THEDAILYJOURNAL
received Browns signature by the end of
September to take effect Jan. 1.
The laws are a mix of changes propelled
by tragedy, a continuing push for govern-
mental transparency and some ideas pro-
posed by constituents.
For state Sen. Jerry Hill, D-San Mateo,
2013 proved his first full year of legisla-
tion after shifting from the state
Assembly to the Senate. His first year
ended with 14 bills enacted into law, just
shy of the 18 he had signed last year in
the Assembly. State Sen. Leland Yees
eight laws to be enacted in 2014 join
dozens of his other legislative pieces a
total of 181 proposals of which 113 were
signed. Yee, D-San Francisco/San Mateo,
is being termed out. Assemblyman Rich
Gordon, D-Menlo Park, had seven pieces
signed into law and Assemblyman Kevin
Mullin, D-South San Francisco, the coun-
tys newest face in Sacramento, had six.
Elections and government
Several of the new laws focus on voting
or tweaks government itself.
One Hill bill requires taxpayer-financed
organizations be held to the same stan-
dards of other political action commit-
tees. Another the result of Hills annu-
al Oughta Be a Law ... Or Not contest
lets voters confirm their mail-in ballot
was counted by requiring county election
officials to establish a system where such
information can be checked. The resident
who proposed the law told Hill he has
voted absentee for more than a decade but
couldnt learn from the registrar if the
votes were actually counted.
Hill called the bill his most signifi-
cant of the year and noted that in the last
November election 60, 000 ballots
statewide were not counted.
Mullin is to thank for an increased like-
lihood those ballots are counted. His new
law lets county registrars compare a
vot ers ballot envelope signature to
other official documents in the voters
record.
Yees batch of bills includes a law
requiring all state websites add a link to
the Secretary of States voter registration
page. The bill follows a 2012 Yee bill
allowing online voter registration
throughout California which so far has
led 900,000 Californians to register or
update their registration.
In the same election vein, a Yee-
authored bill requires fee elections like
storm drain or levy assessments to imple-
ment the same oversight standards as oth-
ers and requires ballots kept for public
inspection rather than destroyed before
results are confirmed.
Thanks to Yee, the Brown Act,
Californias open meeting law, is also
extended to cover all meetings by large
intergovernmental agencies so that mem-
bers cannot vote anonymously.
Following in the footsteps of the city
of Bell scandal, existing compensation
restrictions and abuse of power provi-
sions now include deputy county execu-
tives, city managers and others employed
by local agencies. The result, according
to author Hill, will mean no extravagant
rewards to local agency employees and
reduced governmental liability to defend
employees convicted of abusing their
power.
Consumers
A key Gordon bill defines Community
Supported Agriculture a direct market-
ing program connecting consumers
directly to farmers by letting buyers use a
subscription service for a box of vegeta-
bles or similar products delivered regular-
ly throughout the season into statute
and gives consumers information about
the foods origin and safety.
There are an estimated 300 CSA pro-
grams currently operating within the
state. As the number of CSAs grow,
Gordon said his law demonstrates the
value Californians have placed on know-
ing the origins of their food and the ben-
efits of eating locally.
Hill successfully authored a law to
increase loan access to those with little
other recourse because of credit scores or
thin credit files. The bill establishes a
four-year pilot program to increase the
availability of affordable, credit-building
loans with principal amounts between
$300 and $2,500.
His other laws include continuing the
ways local governments uniformly meas-
ure and verify checkout stand scanners
and bolsters existing laws regarding the
sale of unlicensed secondhand goods to
help limit the potential of crime.
Quality of life
In 2013, the countys leaders also made
inroads in improving and protecting qual-
ity of life.
Mullin propelled bills that strengthened
human rights protections for immigrants
by expanding the definition of extortion
to include threats to report status. Another
bill keeps people from having to pay taxes
on the energy they produce an extra
incentive for Californians mulling the
costs and benefits of renewable energy.
Gordons legislation not only looked to
the future but also to continuing existing
programs. With a pilot child care program
in San Mateo County about to expire,
Gordon pushed an extension until 2018
which he said will not add an extra finan-
cial burden to the state or taxpayers. The
legislation created in 2003 allows the pro-
gram to provide adequate subsidized child
care at different eligibility and reimburse-
ment rates an acknowledgment that the
county has one of the states highest cost
of living.
This law is ultimately about local con-
trol and providing local governments with
the tools necessary to best serve their res-
idents, said Gordon in a prepared state-
ment.
Gordon similarly tackled affordable
housing by championing legislation to
keep local housing trust funds from expir-
ing and being absorbed back into the
state. The law actually took effect Oct. 12
with an urgency clause.
In the housing arena, a Hill-authored bill
increases the protections of consumers
who pay for rental listings and makes it
harder for unlicensed providers to operate.
Yees other bills allow plug-in hybrid
cars access to HOV lanes until 2019 and
another will move state contract data to a
new and more easily searchable system.
On a different note, Yee also mandates
that the majority of social worker visits of
foster youth must take place at the home to
ensure the child is receiving adequate care.
Another directs the Department of Social
Services to collect data on parenting and
pregnant youth and authorizes social
workers to give them reproductive health
information. The bill also prompts the use
of parenting conferences that teach par-
enting skills
Yee, in a prepared statement, said his
enacted bills as a whole will make our
government more transparent, better serve
the needs of foster children, improve our
environment and increase access to the
electoral process.
Abit off the beaten path, Hill proposed
protection for mountain lions after the
fatal shooting of two starving cubs in Half
Moon Bay on Nov. 30, 2012. Hills law
requires the Department of Fish and
Wildlife use non-lethal action like tran-
quilizing and relocating when called to
deal with a mountain lion that has wan-
dered into a residential area and does not
pose an imminent threat to the public.
There was considerable upset in the
community and I thought theres got to be
another way to do this, Hill said.
Also due to Hill, the Hollywood Park
Card Club has three years to divest from
the Sahara Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas
which is supposed to provide a smooth
ownership transition for the pension
funds that own it and the city of Inglewood
where the facility is located.
Lingering issues
At least two of the new laws backed by
local leaders are continuations of issues
spanning several years and just as much
debate.
Hill, a vocal critic of the California
Public Utilities Commission, proposed a
law requiring it to develop a safety
enforcement program for gas and electric
violations. Following National
Transportation Safety Board and
Independent Review Panel recommenda-
tions, the CPUC has allowed staff to cite
utilities for gas safety violations, but the
CPUC has not developed a program to
improve safety using this increased staff
authority. This bill requires the CPUC to
extend this staff authority to electric safe-
ty violations.
Another limits the high-speed rail proj-
ect on the Peninsula to a blended, primari-
ly two-track system that minimizes
impacts to communities along the
Caltrain right-of-way.
Hill said his bill ends Peninsula worry
that the California High-Speed Rail
Authority could revisit a four-track option
by giving local agencies like Caltrain the
right to veto it. The law also states that
funds cannot be transferred from the
Peninsula segment to other segments of
the project.

OPINION 9
Wednesday Jan. 1, 2014 THEDAILYJOURNAL
Guest perspective
misses the mark
Editor,
Rod Hsiaos guest perspective
More than one excellent high
school in the Dec. 31 edition of the
Daily Journal misses the mark.
Providing quality education to chil-
dren is the most important and per-
sonal task of any parent, fraught
with anxiety and stress. It deserves
more than Mr. Hsiaos admonition
to have another cup of cocoa and
relax.
Disparaging Asian parents in the
district by stereotyping them as
tiger moms and dads is not excusa-
ble merely because Mr. Hsiao hap-
pens to be Asian American. All par-
ents, regardless of race or socioeco-
nomic status, deserve our empathy
and support as they work to make
the best choices for their children.
As mayor and councilman for the
city of San Mateo, I have worked
individually with parents of all races
and backgrounds to build bridges
with the San Mateo Union High
School District on issues such as
improving communication for non-
English speaking parents, deciding
the location of the districts contin-
uation high school, and where to add
needed facilities.
I am grateful for the leadership of
Superintendent Scott Laurence, and
District Trustees Marc Friedman,
Robert Griffin and Peter Hanley.
Each has taken time to meet with me
and fellow parents to hear and
address our concerns. I am grateful
they did not merely cite arbitrary
statistics, call me a tiger coun-
cilmember, hand me a cup of cocoa,
and tell me to relax.
We must honor and empathize with
the tough choices made by parents
who seek to provide a better life for
their children.

New centrifuges for Iran
Editor,
In spite of Mr. Obamas trusting,
generous negotiation, Iran has just
announced it will now develop a new
generation of centrifuges to further
their nuclear ambitions. Many in
Congress are angry at this brazen
flaunting of the agreement and
pledge future tougher sanctions on
Iran if they do not seriously stop
their quest for a nuclear bomb. So
what is the response of our presi-
dent? He vehemently threatens to
veto these tougher sanctions. It
makes many folks wonder just on
whose side Mr. Obama stands: the
American people and their congres-
sional representatives or the mul-
lahs of Iran?

Letters to the editor
T
oday is the day when many
of us drag ourselves out of
bed to meet the new year
with bags under our eyes, fog in our
heads and remorse in our heart. Wi t h
that comes a certain amount of
resolve to somehow make a change
in our lives.
For those of us feeling the effects
of someone slipping us a bad ice
cube, the resolution typically cen-
ters on not imbibing for a while.
Others may be able to pinch more
than an inch and resolve to lose
weight and get in shape after a
stretch that began with Halloween
candy and may have ended last night
with a pig in a blanket (hopefully
the edible kind).
Others, too, can make some
changes and even resolve to do
something different than in this past
year. So with that in mind, here is
our holiday wish list of resolutions
for others to consider.
Politicians in Washington are just
about numbing their hands slapping
themselves on the back over the
budget deal compromise wrangled by
U.S. Rep. Paul Ryan and signed by
President Obama last week. But it
would be nice to see a little resolve
on the debt ceiling, which the
Treasury said must be somehow
addressed by late February or early
March. Though its easy to say to
just raise the ceiling and be done
with it, eventually the amount of
debt (currently $17.2 trillion) will
become unmanageable, especially
once interest rates rise. So lets
hope there is a little bit of compro-
mise on both sides to cut what needs
to be cut and raise what needs to be
raised without unduly impacting
those among us still struggling to
rise out of the Great Recession.
Alittle resolve on the Patient
Protection and Affordable Care Act
would be nice too. Though it has
struggled (to put it mildly) out of the
gate and proven to be incredibly bur-
densome to many segments of the
population (those who may have
believed the promise that they could
keep the doctors and plans they
liked), it is also evident there is a
nationwide need for some kind of
reform. Perhaps the steps taken so
far are not the remedy, but lets hope
our friends in Washington have the
resolve to consider a way to make
changes that will both serve the
acts primary goal of providing
affordable care for all while also
maintaining the quality of the care.
At the state level, we ask that the
Legislature invoke a little temper-
ance when it comes to the projected
surplus estimated to be in the
neighborhood of $5.6 billion to
$10 billion. While it might be
tempting to restore all those cuts
made during the Great Recession,
there is also a mounting wall of debt
that will have to be addressed some
time. The sooner, the better. If you
came into a small windfall, would
you spend all the money on new
clothes, or would you spend the
money on a new roof to make sure
your clothes dont get ruined? We all
know what the temptation may be,
but then we also all know what the
smart choice is. Lets hope our leg-
islators have the resolve to do the
right thing.
At the local level, there will be
more development proposals enter-
ing the public planning process in
2014. Thats what happens when the
economy starts picking up and
financing becomes easier. Heres to
wishing local officials have the
resolve to address the communitys
dual needs tax revenue and hous-
ing in a responsible way. They
dont have to be mutually exclusive
and they dont have to have a harm-
ful effect on those directly impacted
(neighbors, longtime residents) if
local officials keep the entire com-
munitys benefit in mind.
So with that, happy new year all
and lets hope everyone can keep
their resolutions.
A few ideas for resolutions
Resolution No. 1
I
f you dont do it, youll never know
what would have happened if you had
done it. Ashleigh Brilliant.
New Years Resolution No. 1! Make it a point to regu-
larly say more appreciative and encouraging things to
others.
Sometimes I get emails from people who enjoy my
columns or I see someone around town or at the San
Bruno Senior Center who compliments them. The
thoughtful (and, of course, astute) people who make my
day in this way can turn a lousy day into a good day or
enhance a good day into a great day. At any rate, such
feedback is always welcome and I always wonder if peo-
ple who have done that
realize how much a few
nice and appreciative
words can improve another
persons outlook and
boost the self-esteem. No
doubt they know it and
thats why they do it. The
good they do reaches all
the way down to the core.
We become not only emo-
tionally charged, but we
enjoy greater mental, spir-
itual and physical well-
being as well. Well be
kinder to ourselves and
those around us because well be more inclined to act
positively with others. And so the snowball keeps
rolling.
Some people naturally take the time and make the
effort to make another persons day by saying some-
thing sincerely appreciative and/or complimentary.
Whether its a note from a friend who tells you she had a
great time at your house the other evening, or a parent
saying to a child, Im so glad youre mine, or your
spouse who expresses appreciation for the millionth
dinner you have prepared for both of you, or even the
driver of the car who waves a smiling go ahead and turn
left in front of me. All, each in its own way, can make
life richer and much more pleasant.
How good it feels when visitors who come to my
home exclaim over the beauty of the bank of impatiens
that I have tended so faithfully right outside the patio
door. And how I beam when one of the young grandchil-
dren draws a beautiful picture and writes below it: I love
you, Grandma and Grandpa. And Im always glad to see
the smile on the face of the clerk at the bookstore I fre-
quent who has helped me find what Im looking for when
I thank her/him profusely.
How much more a holiday card means when the sender
pens a note telling you how your friendship has meant
so much to her. Makes me think of the time I sent an
email to the author of an article I totally agreed with but
which I knew would generate negative comments from
many readers. In return, she told me how much she
appreciated my positive response especially on that
particular day it arrived because the writer of the
email she had read just before mine had been very criti-
cal. My note had done more good than I even imagined.
As an important part of my resolution, I must profuse-
ly thank Jon, the intrepid editor in chief of this newspa-
per, for putting up with me for these past five years, and
tell him in print that Ive appreciated his patience great-
l y. Seems I may have emulated Ashleigh Brilliant when
he quipped I always think of the right thing to say after
the right time to say it has passed.
New Years Day (or shortly thereafter) is a great time
to resolve to say many appreciative and/or complimen-
tary things each day to those who are part of our lives.
But remember, kind words are good only if they are sin-
cere, come from the heart and are not intended (con-
sciously or unconsciously) to get something in return
except the natural byproduct of goodwill. Sincere, kind
words are an indication that those saying them are
secure enough in themselves to be able to reach out to
others and that these people possess a warmth that radi-
ates from the heart. Those who are not used to doing
this, at first may have to force themselves to notice
things that can be complimented. Then they may have
to consciously think of how to say something nice
without sounding insincere or condescending. But work-
ing on this is rewarding, and soon it will come natural-
l y.
Aprovocative thought by Piero Ferucci comes to
mind. Ultimately, it is all very simple. There is no
choice between being kind to others and being kind to
ourselves. Its the same thing. The Power of
Kindness.

Big movers

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK The stock market
closed out a record year with more all-
time highs on Tuesday, giving U.S.
indexes their biggest annual gains in
almost two decades.
The Standard & Poors 500 index
notched its best year since 1997; The
Dow Jones industrial average rose the
most since 1995.
While trading was light on the last
day of the year, investors were able to
rally behind a report that showed U.S.
consumer condence improved signi-
cantly in December.
The early signs for the stock market
in 2014 are also encouraging.
I expect a lot of good things for the
new year, Karyn Cavanaugh, market
strategist with ING U.S. Investment
Management, said. The economy is
getting better and corporate earnings
are improving. Thats going to drive
the market higher next year as well.
On Tuesday the Standard & Poors
500 rose 7.29 points, or 0.4 percent,
to 1,848.36. The index ended 2013 up
29.6 percent. With dividends included,
the total return was 31.9 percent.
The Dow Jones industrial average
rose 72.37 points, or 0.4 percent, to
16,576.66. The blue chips ended the
year up 26.5 percent.
Lastly, the Nasdaq composite rose
22.39 points, or 0.5 percent, to close
out 2013 at 4,176.59. The Nasdaq did
far better than the Dow and S&P, rising
38.3 percent for the year.
While stocks clawed higher for most
of 2013, the rally accelerated into the
end of the year. The Federal Reserves
announcement on Dec. 18 that it would
start paring back, or tapering, its
economic stimulus pushed stocks fur-
ther into record territory.
Since the Fed announced it was
tapering its stimulus program two
weeks ago, investors that were under-
invested in stocks have pulled out of
gold and bonds and moved it into
stocks, said J.J. Kinahan, chief
strategist with TD Ameritrade. Its
been a quiet rally.
All 10 sectors of the S&P 500 ended
the year higher, but the years biggest
gainers were companies most exposed
to the U.S. economic recovery.
Consumer discretionary stocks in the
S&P 500 rose 40 percent this year.
Close behind were industrial stocks
with a gain of 37 percent.
As it has been for the last two
weeks of the year, trading volume
was very low Tuesday. Roughly 2.3
billion shares were traded on the
New York Stock Exchange, about 40
percent below average. Most
investors closed their books before
the week of Christmas.
2013s rally took many investors by
surprise.
Any number of things could have
derailed the markets rally: The U.S.
government shutdown, the possibility
of a default, the threat of military
action in Syria, budget cuts and new
worries about European government
debt. Instead, the market just kept on
going.
Skittish investors who jumped out
of stocks this year not only lost out,
but were punished for it.
Bond investors lost money this
year, according to Barclays Capital
U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, a broad
measure of the debt market. The index
fell 3 percent this year, the rst decline
since 1999.
If bond investors had a disappoint-
ing year, gold investors got slammed.

NEW YORK Being safe left some
investors sorry in 2013.
Thats because some nancial assets that
are considered safe and steady lost money.
After three decades of steady gains, bonds
had a bad year. Prices for Treasurys and
other kinds of bonds slumped as the U.S.
economy improved, investors nerves
steadied and the Federal Reserve prepared to
pull back on its huge bond-buying pro-
gram.
Gold was another investment that went
from haven to headache. The price of gold
gained steadily for more than a decade, driv-
en by concerns about the health of the U.S.
economy and rising ination. The metal
plunged in 2013 as the U.S. maintained its
recovery and inflation was nowhere in
sight.
Keeping money in a bank account was
another safety-first strategy that worked
when the stock market was plunging in
2008, but not since then. With the Standard
and Poors 500 index soaring 29.6 percent
in 2013 or 31.9 percent including divi-
dends returns from a savings account
looked meager.
Heres a look at how some of the suppos-
edly safe assets have performed.
TREASURYS AND
OTHER KINDS OF BONDS
From 1981 through 2012, demand for
Treasurys rose and their yields, which move
in the opposite direction, fell. The yield on
the 10-year Treasury note bottomed at a
record low of 1.39 percent in July of 2012,
when the European debt crisis intensied
and people rushed to buy U.S. government
debt securities.
In the 1980s, investors bought Treasurys
as ination eased and interest rates fell.
That made higher-yielding Treasurys
already in the market more attractive.
Investors also bought Treasurys during the
nancial crisis in 2007. Treasurys are con-
sidered among the safest nancial assets
because they are backed by the U.S. govern-
ment, which, at least in theory, should
always be able to repay its debts.
Bonds also rose as the Fed began purchas-
ing Treasurys in response to the nancial
crisis and the recession to keep interest
rates low to boost the economy. The central
bank has been purchasing $85 billion
worth of Treasurys and mortgage-backed
securities each month.
The U.S. economy now appears to be
gaining steam and the Fed, the biggest
buyer of Treasurys, plans to start reducing
its purchases in January. The yield on the
10-year Treasury note climbed from 1.76
percent to as high as 3.04 percent in 2013
as investors sold bonds in anticipation of
the Feds pullback.
The rise in yields and the corresponding
decline in bond prices has meant losses for
bond investors, prompting them to cut
their holdings.
Investors pulled an estimated $32 billion
out of Treasury securities in the rst three
quarters of 2013, putting Treasury funds on
track for the rst year of net outows since
2003, according to Lipper fund ow data.
The Lipper U.S. index for Treasurys, which
measures the performance of government
debt, has lost 9.1 percent since the start of
2013.
Other bonds, which are priced in relation
to Treasury debt, also had a bad year.
Municipal bonds, issued by states and
cities, fell 2.6 percent, according to
Barclays indexes. High-quality company
bonds also edged lower.
At some point, interest rates are going
to have to go up, says Bob Gavlak, a
wealth advisor at Strategic Wealth Partners.
You need to understand that bonds arent
necessarily a safe haven as everybody has
viewed them over the last 30 years.
GOLD
Gold had its worst slump in more than 30
years.
The price of gold rose every year from
2001 to 2012 as investors looked for an
alternative to the U.S. dollar and protection
against ination. Gold went as high as
$1,900 an ounce in August 2011 as lawmak-
ers argued over raising the U.S. debt ceiling
and threatened to push the nation into
default.
In 2013, gold started to slump as ination
didnt materialize, investors shrugged off
the gridlock in Washington and the U.S.
economy recovered. In April, it plunged 9
percent in one day. Reports that the
Mediterranean island nation of Cyprus
could sell some of its gold reserves to pay
off its debts after a bailout by the European
Union also rattled the market.
At its current price of $1,202 an ounce,
gold has lost 28 percent of its value this
year, the worst drop since 1981, when it
slumped 33 percent.
Gold may still come back into favor with
investors, says George Gero, a precious
metals analyst at RBC Wealth Management.
Rising tensions between China and Japan
over islands in the East China Sea, or esca-
lating conicts in the Middle East could
unsettle nancial markets 2014 and ensure
that gold stays in investment portfolios.
Gold will retain its haven status next
year, says Gero. After all, you do hold
insurance on your car, hoping youll never
have to use it.
Safe investments like gold were hit hard in 2013

PALO ALTO Personal computer giant
Hewlett-Packard Co. has conrmed that it
expects layoffs at the upper end of a range
that it outlined earlier this year, with 5,000
more workers than originally planned
expected to lose jobs by October 2014.
The company said in a securities ling
Monday that continued market and busi-
ness pressures were behind the move. The
additional cuts, on top of the 29,000 posi-
tions it planned to cut in a May 2012
restructuring plan, will likely boost the
accumulated restructuring charges to $4.1
billion from $3.6 billion, it said.
Hewlett-Packard said in March that its
estimated cutbacks could vary by as much as
15 percent from its original estimate. At an
October meeting with analysts, Chief
Financial Officer Cathie Lesjak said the
company planned to end up near the high
end of that range.
Cost cuts have helped HP weather revenue
declines in PCs, printing and enterprise
services. In the scal year through Oct. 31,
revenue fell 7 percent to $112.3 billion, but
the company posted $5.1 billion in net
prot, compared with a $12.7 billion loss a
year earlier.
HP shares rose 10 cents to $28.17 in mid-
day trading Tuesday.

BIG DAY FOR BOWLS: GATOR, CAPITAL ONE BOWLS OFFER INTRIGUING MATCHUPS>> PAGE 12
Grand Daddy turns 100
By Greg Beacham
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
PASADENA The game considered to be
the rst Rose Bowl was staged in 1902 to
help pay for the Tournament of Roses
Parade. An unexpectedly huge crowd of
about 8,000 sat on temporary stands in a
park and watched Stanford lose 49-0 to
Michigan.
No. 5 Stanford has returned to Pasadena
112 years later, facing No. 4 Michigan State
on Wednesday in the 100th edition of col-
lege footballs quintessential bowl game.
Far fewer fans will show up to Arroyo Seco
on horses and buggies this time, and the
game probably wont be called early because
of a blowout. The Spartans and Cardinal still
believe theyll put on a display of throw-
back football for the Granddaddy of Them
Alls centennial celebration.
There is a special quality to it, said
David Yankey, Stanfords All-American left
guard. The Rose Bowl will still go on, but
its kind of an end of an era in some sense,
and were excited to be part of that.
Both the Rose Bowl game and the stadium
have evolved since that initial outing was
eventually followed by the institution of an
annual New Years Day game in 1916. The
100th game falls during the nal season of
the Bowl Championship Series, and the sta-
dium also will host the last BCS title game
on Monday.
Both Stanford and Michigan State fell just
shy of contending for that title shot, but its
tough to nd any disappointed players on
either team during the usual week of
Southern California festivities for the Rose
Bowl teams.
The Cardinal (11-2) are in their fourth con-
secutive BCS bowl game after winning the
Pac-12, while the Spartans (12-1) blew
through their Big Ten schedule and won their
nal nine games to earn the long-suffering
schools rst trip to Pasadena since 1988.
I would say this is the biggest game in
our programs history, Michigan State
safety Kurtis Drummond said. Denitely
the biggest game in our lives. For us to go
down in history as potentially one of the
Warriors solve Orlando

GLENDALE, Ariz. By now, Central
Florida has heard it over and over: It has no
shot at beating No. 6 Baylor in the Fiesta
Bowl.
Viewed as the team none of the other BCS
bowls wanted, the 15th-ranked Knights
landed in the Fiesta Bowl by earning an
automatic berth as American Athletic
Conference champions.
Awaiting Central Florida on New Years
Day is the nations most explosive offense,
a group lled with big, athletic and fast
players who churned out more yards than all
but one team in FBS history.
But no way are the Knights intimidated.
Theyre in a BCS bowl for the rst time and
want to prove they belong, that theyre not
just some patsy for the Bears to beat up on.
Our motivation is were in a BCS bowl
game and were trying to put UCF on the
map, UCF linebacker Terrance Plummer
said. This is our prime-time game, we want
everyone to know about us, so as a team
were not worried about what others have to
say about us.
What theyre saying is not good.
The Fiesta Bowl was viewed as the most
lopsided game when the matchups were
announced and the perception has not
changed.
Baylor enters as a 16 1-2-point favorite,
highest among the 35 bowls.
The reason is that offense.

First college start
for LSU freshman
By Fred Goodall
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
TAMPA, Fla. No. 14 Louisiana State
has no qualms about Anthony Jennings
making his rst college start against Iowa
in the Outback Bowl.
The true freshman quarterback came off the
bench to lead a 99-yard drive in the closing
minutes of the Tigers regular season nale
to beat Arkansas, so LSU coach Les Miles
feels his offense will be in good hands
against the Hawkeyes on Wednesday.
Miles believes poise is one of Jennings
strongest assets, which is one of the rea-
sons LSU didnt blink when senior Zach
Mettenberger, whos thrown for nearly
5,800 yards in his career, injured his knee
with his team trailing 27-24 and seemingly
running out of time against Arkansas.
The condence of the team when he went
under center really didnt change a lick.
They kind of knew what to expect, Miles
said. Again, we expect him to play well.
Jennings has appeared in eight games, but
had only thrown three passes before
Mettenberger went down with a knee injury
that will keep him out of the Outback Bowl.
The 19-year-old from Marietta, Ga., was 4 of
7 for 76 yards against Arkansas, including a
49-yard TD throw to nish the eight-play
drive that gave the Tigers their ninth victo-
ry.

ANN ARBOR, Mich. As the novelty of
playing hockey outdoors seems to be wearing
off, the NHL is hoping bigger is better at the
Winter Classic.
The league has been playing at least one
game outdoors annually since 2008 other than
last season because of the lockout. The popular-
ity of the concept is being tested by putting six
games in the elements this season.
With a lot more fans and two Original Six
teams, including one from Canada for the rst
time, the NHL is condent the 2014 Winter
Classic will be different.
Those are two distinguishing factors, NHL
Deputy Commissioner Bill Daly said. Itll be
special.
The league said 105,500 tickets have been
sold for the game Wednesday between the
Detroit Red Wings and Toronto Maple Leafs at
Michigan Stadium. That almost doubles the
average of 53,045 spectators who watched the
rst ve Winter Classics.
If every person who paid for a ticket braves
temperatures in the teens on a snowy afternoon,
a record will be broken.
In the same football stadium, known as the
Big House, Michigan and Michigan State set a
hockey attendance record of 104,173 in 2010.
If you havent been to a football Saturday
here, then you should put it on your bucket list,
Red Wings coach Mike Babcock said Tuesday
after a brief practice. Its the best sporting
event. Ive been to the Olympic Games, the
World Series, the Stanley Cup. This is probably
the best sporting event Ive ever been to, bar
none.
Can it transfer into hockey? I assume it can.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. Georgia and
Nebraska are playing with backup quarter-
backs all the more reason to focus on two
of the top running backs in the country.
Georgias Todd Gurley and Nebraskas
Ameer Abdullah could make the Gator Bowl a
ground-and-pound celebration on New Years
Day.
Gurley, a 6-foot-1, 232-pound sophomore,
has 903 yards rushing and 10 touchdowns
despite missing three-plus games with an
ankle injury. He needs 93 yards on the ground
against the Cornhuskers on Wednesday to
become the third player in school history
with consecutive 1,000-yard seasons.
Herschel Walker (1980-83) and Knowshon
Moreno (2007-08) also accomplished the
feat.
Abdullah, a 5-foot-9, 190-pound junior,
has 1,568 yards and eight touchdowns. Only
three Cornhuskers Mike Rozier, Ahman
Green and Lawrence Phillips have enjoyed
better single seasons than Abdullah.
Theres no doubt theyre both great
backs, Nebraska coach Bo Pelini said.
Theyre different. They have different
styles, obviously built differently. ... But
great players come in a lot of different shapes
and sizes and a lot of different skill sets.
The 23rd-ranked Bulldogs (8-4) and
Cornhuskers (8-4) likely will rely on both in
the Gator Bowl, a rematch of last years
Capital One Bowl in Orlando.
Georgia is playing its second consecutive
game without four-year starter Aaron Murray,
who tore the anterior cruciate ligament in his
left knee against Kentucky on Nov. 23.
Nebraskas Taylor Martinez, meanwhile, was
limited to four games this season because of
a left foot injury.
Without Murray, Gurley ran 20 times for
122 yards and three touchdowns in a 41-34
double-overtime victory against Georgia
Tech. He also caught four passes for 36 yards
and a score.
We have a lot of respect for Gurley, said
Pelini, whose defense allowed Gurley to run
for 125 yards and a touchdown last year.
Hes a heck of a football player with his size
and his strength. He can do a lot of different
things in the running game and the passing
game.
So can Abdullah, who has 51 career recep-
tions for 421 yards and four TDs.
Hes a solid dude, a real tough, physical
runner, Georgia defensive end Garrison
Smith said. The guy can really play foot-
ball, a hard-nosed guy, gets after it, has great
vision, can cut back. Weve got our hands
full. Hes a problem cause hes such a talent-
ed back.
Aside from the star running backs, here are
five things to know about Georgia and
Nebraska heading into the Gator Bowl.
Gator Bowl features pair of big-time RBs
By Kyle Hightower
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ORLANDO, Fla. It would be understand-
able if South Carolina and Wisconsin were a
little disappointed when they arrived in
Orlando for the Capital One Bowl.
Even after some early season setbacks, both
teams had a chance to earn spots in a BCS
bowl game before coming up short.
But with a New Years Day matchup that on
paper could be one of the best among the non-
BCS games, neither the eighth-ranked
Gamecocks (10-2) nor No. 19 Badgers (9-3)
have had to search for motivation this week.
Thats especially true for Wisconsin, which
is trying to snap a three-game bowl losing
streak following three straight Rose Bowl
losses. The Badgers climbed as high as No. 15
in the BCS standings, but had their season
stunted by early-season losses to Arizona
State and Ohio State and loss to Penn State in
their regular-season nale.
Its tough. You denitely want to send the
seniors out on a high note. I havent won a
bowl game so Im anxious to get out there and
get a win, said Badgers running back James
White. It motivates me a lot, and I know it
motivates those guys (other seniors) as well.
With a new coaching staff, we denitely want
to get Coach (Gary) Andersen a bowl win in
his rst year.
Andersen downplayed his rst opportunity
as Wisconsins to play an SEC foe, but did
acknowledge the challenge in facing
Gamecocks coach Steve Spurriers offense.
When you mix coach Spurrier and (quarter-
back Connor) Shaw together in their offense,
its a pretty vicious weapon, Andersen said.
The Gamecocks enter their rst-ever
matchup with Wisconsin having won two-
straight bowl games over Big Ten foes, defeat-
ing Nebraska in 2012 and Michigan in 2013.
They reeled off four straight wins following
an early loss to Georgia, but were then upset
by Tennessee before ending the season on a
ve-game win streak.
Alot of eyes will be on South Carolina jun-
ior defensive end Jadeveon Clowney, who is
projected to be a top selection in this springs
NFL draft should he decide to enter his name.
He leads a Gamecocks defense that ranked
fourth in the SEC and tied for 14th in the coun-
try, allowing 20 points per game.
We were all wondering if hes got a limo to
take him out of the (stadium) tomorrow or
not, Spurrier said. We were kidding him
about all the autograph seeking around there.
Wait until after the game and he can start
charging for his autograph.
Jokes aside, though, what hasnt been lost
on the Gamecocks is that they will take the
eld as a 1.5-point underdog despite being the
higher-ranked team.
Spurrier said he mentioned it only briey
before the team arrived in Florida, but it seems
the slight did resonate.
I just kind of take it as a slap in the face,
defensive end Chaz Sutton said this week.
For us to be the (higher) ranked team coming
into this game and be labeled as the underdog,
we kind of take it as a slap in the face as a team
collectively because we know what type of
guys weve got coming to this (stadium)...and
we just feel like, you know, we deserve way
much more respect than what were getting
right now.

ELPASO, Texas Brett Hundley threw two
touchdown passes and ran for two more scores
to help No. 17 UCLArout Virginia Tech 42-12
on Tuesday in the Sun Bowl.
The Bruins (10-3) outscored the Hokies (8-
5) 28-5 in the second half.
Hundley had an 86-yard touchdown run and
nished with 161 yards on 10 carries, and
completed 16 of 29 passes for 226 yards. He
was selected the co-MVP along with line-
backer Jordan Zumwalt, who had 10 tackles
and an interception.
After Virginia Tech cut it to 14-10 on
Michael Branthovers 22-yard eld goal with
3:53 left in the third quarter, UCLA answered
with a 12-play, 85-yard drive, capped by Paul
Perkinss 5-yard run early in the fourth.
Hokies backup quarterback Mark Leal then
threw a pass under heavy pressure that line-
backer Myles Jack intercepted and returned 29
yards for a touchdown that made it 28-10.
Virginia Tech, which lost starting quarter-
back Logan Thomas to an injury in the second
quarter, got its nal points when UCLApunter
Sean Covington stepped on the end line for a
safety with 9:38 left.
UCLA pushed it to 35-12 on Hundleys 8-
yard touchdown pass to Thomas Duarte with
7:31 to play. The Bruins stayed aggressive
late, and Hundley red a 59-yard scoring strike
down the right sideline to Shaquelle Evans for
another score with 5:49 remaining.
UCLA led 14-7 after the rst half. Hundley
had six carries for 168 yards in the half. He set
the Sun Bowl record for rushing yards by a
quarterback by halftime.
Worse for Virginia Tech, which entered the
game ranked No. 4 in the nation in total
defense, was that the Bruins rushed for 202
yards in the rst half. That already was the
most rushing yards the Hokies had given up in
a game this season. UCLA nished with 250
yards.

MINNEAPOLIS The NBA has
acknowledged the Minnesota
Timberwolves were on the short end
of an ofciating error once again,
and the latest one cost them dearly
in a loss to the Dallas Mavericks.
Less than 24 hours after the
Wolves lost at home to the
Mavericks, 100-98, NBApresident
of basketball operations Rod Thorn
announced Tuesday that Kevin Love
was fouled on his right arm by
Shawn Marion in the closing sec-
onds and should have been awarded
two free throws.
Ofcials Ed Malloy and David
Guthrie were near the play, but nei-
ther blew their whistle. Marion was
awarded a blocked shot on the play
that allowed the Mavericks to hang
on for an important road victory.
Thorn said replays showed Marion
did hit Love on his right arm while
he raised up to shoot a jumper in the
corner.
The acknowledgement held little
weight with the Timberwolves, who
are trying to chase down the
Mavericks in the Western
Conference playoff race.
Its like moral victories, Love
said. You dont really count those.
Its just something that well just
get past.
Its not the rst time the Wolves
have had to do that recently. They
have now been told by the NBA
three times since last March that
ofcials made an error in one of
their games. Last season, the NBA
said ofcials shouldnt have ejected
J.J. Barea from a game against
Miami on March 4 after a con-
frontation with Ray Allen in the
fourth quarter.
Later that month, the league said
ofcials erred in not calling Kobe
Bryant for a foul on Ricky Rubios
last-second 3-point attempt that
allowed the Los Angeles Lakers to
win, 120-117, on March 27.
Sometimes, its even more frus-
trating when the league acknowl-
edges the mistake, Rubio said
Tuesday. We cant do nothing. If
they didnt call it, they didnt call
it. Thats it. We dont care if they
say it was a foul or not. They didnt
call it. We didnt have the chance to
tie the game, and we lost that
game.
But Rubio, Love and Adelman all
were quick to point out that the
Wolves made plenty of other mis-
takes themselves to allow the game
to get to that point. A lackluster
rst half had them down by 19
points at halftime and 21 early in
the third quarter, and the at start
ultimately cost them.
The rst half, it was terrible,
Rubio said. We arent gonna blame
the ref for that game. ... It was us
who put us in that situation.
After the game, Adelman
expressed what has been a growing
concern among the team this sea-
son that Love and, to a lesser
extent, Nikola Pekovic arent get-
ting the respect from the ofcials
that they deserve.
Pekovic, the teams bruising cen-
ter, often nishes the games with
bruises on his arms and shoulders
from banging in the paint. But like
other heavyweights before him,
including Shaquille ONeal and Yao
Ming, his sheer strength can often
make it difcult for ofcials to see
him getting fouled.
NBA: Refs missed foul on Twolves Love
By Arnie Stapleton
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ENGLEWOOD, Colo. Peyton Manning
says his records wont last long. One of
them might not even last the week.
Elias Sports Bureau, which keeps the
NFLs statistical records, is reviewing a 7-
yard pass from Manning to Eric Decker that
occurred in the rst quarter of Denvers 34-
14 win at Oakland on Sunday to make sure it
was a forward pass.
If not, hell lose the single-season pass-
ing record he set on the nal day of the reg-
ular season.
Manning nished with 266 yards passing
before sitting out the second half, and his
final throw was a 6-yard TD toss to
Demaryius Thomas which gave him 5,477
yards for the season one more yard than
Drew Brees 2011 record.
Elias routinely reviews plays and often
tweaks totals in the days following games,
then notifies teams of
corrections to totals such
as yardage or sack num-
bers.
If Elias determines the
throw to Decker with just
over a minute remaining
in the first quarter was
actually a lateral, Decker
would be credited with a
7-yard run, not a catch.
That would leave
Manning with 5,470 yards passing, still
his career high but six yards shy of Brees
record.
Remember that camera angles can be
deceiving, depending on where the camera
is located. But Mannings pass looks like a
lateral in one camera angle. Another angle,
from above, however, appears to show
Decker gathering in the ball at the Denver
48-yard line with Manning about a foot
deeper than that.
Manning also threw four TD passes
Sunday, nishing the season with 55, ve
more than Tom Bradys record set in 2007,
considered a much more signicant achieve-
ment that the single-season yardage mark.
Manning broke the TD record two weeks
ago at Houston and was all smiles afterward,
crediting his coaches and teammates and
saying it was a signicant mark that meant
a lot to him because it came in the midst of
a successful season. The Broncos (13-3) are
the AFCs top seed in the playoffs for the
second straight season. They have a bye
this weekend and will host a divisional
round game Jan. 12.
When asked Sunday about the yardage
record, Manning said, I dont really have
much to say about it, to tell you the truth.
Had the play in question originally been
ruled a lateral, Manning might have started
the third quarter instead of backup Brock
Osweiler with the Broncos ahead 31-0 and
the playoffs looming.
Then again, maybe not.
Coach John Fox demurred when asked
Monday if he would have considered send-
ing Manning out for another series after
halftime if he hadnt already broken Brees
mark.
Thats hard to say. ... What was very pos-
itive was I thought we played, if not our
best, one of our better halves of football
that put us in a position where we could do
different things, Fox said. No. 1, all
those things are great, those individual
accomplishments, team accomplishments,
but not at the risk of putting a player at risk.
So I dont know if Ive answered your ques-
tion, Im just kind of telling you what would
go through our minds in that situation.
After breaking Bradys TD record,
Manning said he expected Brady to break
the mark again soon, adding that all sorts of
marks will fall like dominoes if NFLowners
get their way and expand the regular season
from 16 to 18 games.
Mannings record might not last very long

close as Orlando could come.
Golden State shut the Magic down
early, trapping Orlando ballhandlers
and making the Magic take many
attempts late in the shot clock.
Orlando shot 38.2 percent for the
game.
NOTES: Magic C Nik Vucevic
injured his left ankle in the rst quar-
ter after stepping on Andrew Boguts
foot. Vucevic injured the same ankle
earlier this season and missed four
games. ... In his last ve games
before Golden State, Magic G Arron
Afalo averaged 23.8 points, while
shooting 60.8 percent (42-69) from
the eld and 76.4 percent (13 of 17)
from 3-point range. ... Golden State

Warriors are 5-1 against the East this
season. ... The Magic have lost nine
straight to West teams.

Leading local news coverage on the Peninsula
best teams, its denitely a challenge that
were all ready to take on.
Last year, the Cardinal ended a 40-year
Rose Bowl victory drought by holding off
Wisconsin in a defense-dominated game.
Stanford expects much the same challenge
from Michigan State, since both schools
have run-rst offenses and the patience to
grind out wins the old-fashioned way.
Five reasons to watch the Rose Bowls
odometer ip to triple digits:
Missing middle
Michigan State must play without Max
Bullough, the starting middle linebacker
and the signal-caller for the Spartans domi-
nant defense. Kyler Elsworth has mostly
taken on the role, but the Spartans will miss
their leader. Ive been next to Max for three
years, linebacker Denicos Allen said. For
the last game of our season or career here,
him not being there is a different experi-
ence.
Gaffneys chance
Stanford tailback Tyler Gaffney took last
season off to play pro baseball, but traveled
to Pasadena anyway. The experience con-
tributed to his decision to return to football
for his senior year, which has featured 1,618
yards rushing and 20 touchdowns. As a
West Coast team, this is the big daddy,
Gaffney said.
Strength on strength
Gaffney will feature prominently when
Stanfords running game challenges
Michigan States overpowering defense,
ranked the nations best all season long
while yielding 248.2 yards per game. The
Cardinal have built their success on the
ground in the pass-happy Pac-12, although
quarterback Kevin Hogan had another quiet-
ly solid season. Stanfords defense is no
joke against the run, allowing the nations
fourth-fewest yards per carry, but Michigan
State is No. 1.
Langfords turn
While Gaffney gets plenty of attention,
Michigan State tailback Jeremy Langford
racked up a school-record eight 100-yard
games among his 1,338 yards rushing.
Langford is confident his Spartans will
thrive in adversity. I actually wanted it to
be a hard route to get to the Rose Bowl, he
said. Every game was a team trying to stop
us from our dream.

No. 4 Michigan State (12-1) vs.
No. 5 Stanford (11-2), 2 p.m. (ESPN)
Whats at stake
The 100th edition of the Granddaddy of
Them All matches two appropriate throw-
back teams. Stanford and Michigan State
have dominant defenses and run-first
offenses capable of grinding out a victory,
but the Cardinal also have the edge of
experience from last seasons Rose Bowl
victory and four straight BCS bowls over-
all.
Key matchup
Stanford RB Tyler Gaffney vs. Michigan
State LB Kyler Elsworth. Gaffney rushed
for 1,618 yards and 20 TDs behind the
Cardinals dominant offensive line, and
hes facing a Michigan State defense miss-
ing LB Max Bullough, who is suspended
for the Rose Bowl. Elsworth will start and
call defensive signals in Bulloughs place,
and hell have to lead an inspired effort to
slow down Stanfords run game.
Players to watch
Michigan State
QB Connor Cook. He isnt ashy, but
the sophomore quietly gets things done
right. After passing for 2,423 yards with
20 TDs and just ve interceptions, Cook
and his offense face an opponent that did-
nt allow more than 28 points all year.
Stanford
LB Trent Murphy. The second-team
All-American wraps up his college career
with his 40th consecutive start, and leads
the Cardinals big-play defense with 14
sacks and 21 1/2 tackles for loss.
Facts & gures
The rst Rose Bowl game was played Jan.
1, 1902, and Stanford lost 49-0 to Michigan
in what was billed as the Tournament East-
West football game in Pasadenas
Tournament Park. The game wasnt played
again until 1916. ... Michigan State has won
nine straight games and is making its rst
BCS appearance. ... Stanford has won six of
seven, including the Pac-12 title game. ...
Stanford beat Wisconsin 20-14 last year in
Pasadena for the Cardinals rst Rose Bowl
victory in 40 years. ... Michigan State is
making its fth Rose Bowl appearance, but
its rst since 1988. ... The last time these
schools met, Stanford routed Michigan State
38-0 in the Sun Bowl on Dec. 31, 1996. ...
The Cardinal are tied for the FBS lead with 40
sacks.
Rose Bowl at a glance
The Bears averaged 624.5 yards per game
during the regular season, second-most in
FBS history to Houston in 1989 (624.9)
and 50 yards more than any other team aver-
aged this season. Baylor also led the nation
in scoring (53.3), has one of the nations
best quarterbacks in Bryce Petty and a star
running back in Lache Seastrunk.
But for all the Bears have done this sea-
son, theyre in the same position as Central
Florida, in a BCS bowl game for the rst
time.
And because of that, they are in no way
taking this matchup lightly.
Were never going to feel like were the
big dog, Baylor coach Art Briles said.
When you start walking around wondering
who is looking at you is when you walk into
a pole. You better make sure you are taking
care of your business or someone is going
to sneak up on you and get you.

school-record four consecutive seasons
with at least 10 victories.
Iowa (8-4) is third in the Big Ten, seventh
nationally, in total defense, but Hawkeyes
coach Kirk Ferentz said LSUs balanced
attack poses problems for everyone.
There may not be much information avail-
able on Jennings, however Ferentz has seen
enough and knows enough about Miles
program to know what the Hawkeyes are
up against.
Thats really the only wild-card for us,
that we dont have that much tape on him.
But as Ive said before, the job of a quarter-
back regardless of his style or his age
is to the move the team, Ferentz said. And
he moved them in as about as extreme cir-
cumstances as you can possibly dream up.
You wouldnt put a guy in that situation in
practice and expect him to do what he did.
Just the fact that Jennings rose to No. 2
on LSUs depth chart as a true freshman tells
Ferentz a lot.
Theyve recruited a lot of good players at
LSU historically. ... Were not sure exactly
what to expect, but I know we can count on
a really good player being back there and a
guy whos a leader of their football team,
the Iowa coach said.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
GRENOBLE, France Michael
Schumacher underwent a second surgery
after a brain scan showed small, surpris-
ing signs of improvement, but grim doc-
tors said Tuesday they could offer no insight
into the prognosis for the Formula One
champion.
Schumacher, who turns 45 on Friday, suf-
fered critical head injuries when he fell and
struck a rock Sunday while skiing on a fam-
ily vacation in the French Alps. His manag-
er conrmed that the accident cracked his
helmet, which doctors
credited for giving him a
chance at survival.
Schumachers condi-
tion stabilized somewhat
after the second surgery,
but he remains in a med-
ically induced coma
and doctors gave no pre-
diction on how long that
would last.
We cannot tell you
any more about the future, said Gerard
Saillant, a surgeon and friend of the family
who is in Grenoble. Saillant said it would be
stupid to make any predictions about
Schumachers recovery.
Schumacher and his 14-year-old son were
skiing in the French Alpine resort of
Meribel, where the family has a chalet,
when he fell and hit the right side of his
head on a rock. He was taken rst to a local
hospital, then to Grenoble University
Hospital, which is recognized as having
one of Frances best neurology teams.
Dr. Emmanuel Gay, the hospitals chief
neurosurgeon, said a brain scan performed
late Monday showed bruising a little bit
everywhere in Schumachers brain but
also an unexpected easing of pressure.
The brain scan was, I must say, surpris-
ing, he said.
But Gay and other doctors cautioned that
Schumachers condition was still grave after
the successful two-hour surgery to eliminate
the largest and most accessible bruise, on
the left side of his brain.
We cannot say he is out of danger, said
Dr. Jean-Francois Payen, head of the hospi-
tals intensive care unit. Payen said any neu-
rological evaluation was out of the ques-
tion for now.

Some players will borrow a practice
from football, putting eye black on
their cheeks to help cope with glare.
I remember back to Wrigley Field
(in the 2009 Winter Classic), I
thought it looked kind of silly when
guys were doing it, Red Wings
defenseman Niklas Kronwall said
with black smudges under both eyes.
But it does actually help.
And like some football games,
shoveling might be necessary to
clear the playing surface.
Skaters with shovels cleared the ice
before both teams practiced on
Tuesday and they might be busier dur-
ing the game. Awinter weather advi-
sory is calling for 4 to 6 inches to fall
from Wednesday morning through
Thursday morning in Ann Arbor.
Alittle bit of snow just adds to the
romance of the game, NHL Chief
Operating Ofcer John Collins said.
Alot of snow, though, and 10 mph
wind could become a problem for the
Red Wings and Maple Leafs, who
enter the game tied in the Eastern
Conference standings with 45 points
halfway through their seasons.
Cold you can deal with, Red
Wings forward Justin Abdelkader said.
But if the snow is coming down hard
and its windy, it can be pretty tough.
If gusts are a signicant factor,
Toronto coach Randy Carlyle said the
NHL will have the teams switch ends
midway through the third period so
that both play into the wind for an
equal amount of time in the game.
Snow hasnt been much of a prob-
lem in previous Winter Classics
because theyve been played with an
average temperature of 39 degrees on
or around New Years Day.
A blizzard, gale-force wind and
below-freezing temperatures would
not be enough to wipe the smile off
the face of Maple Leafs captain Dion
Phaneuf one day after he signed a $49
million, seven-year contract.
I got chills coming into the build-
ing, Phaneuf said. You grow up
playing on outdoor rinks as a kid. And
to be able to come here and obviously
with this news being announced, to
have my family here its going to be a
special game to be a part of. .... When
there are 110,000 people, its going
to be an experience Ill never forget.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Fantasizing about throwing a big holiday
bash but fearful youll spend the whole
party or worse, the whole week in the
kitchen prepping? Weve got you covered.
Weve assembled an easy mix-and-match
approach to holiday entertaining. An hour
or so of prep and youll have enough nib-
bles to feed a crowd in high style.
Heres how it works: Weve divided the
menu into 10 base ingredients. Each
ingredient is paired with three simple sug-
gestions for dressing it up for the party. All
you need to do is pick enough base ingredi-
ents to feed your crowd, then decide how
youd like to prepare each. A little shop-
ping, a little prepping, then youre ready to
party.
Many of these options make easy dips,
spreads or other toppings for bread, so
when you make that trip to the grocer, round
out the menu with a variety of crackers and
baguettes or pita bread that can be sliced and
toasted.
BRIE
Top a round of brie with purchased g
jam and toasted pecans.
Top slices of brie on a platter with a
quick fresh herb sauce (puree 1/2 cup pars-
ley, 1/2 cup chives and 1/4 cup cilantro
with 1/4 cup olive oil and 2 tablespoons
sherry vinegar, season with salt and black
pepper).
Place a round of brie in a small, shallow
baking dish. Bake at 250 F for 10 minutes,
then top with fresh berries and drizzle with
warmed orange marmalade.
GOAT CHEESE
Spread on slices of baguette, then broil
for 2 minutes or until lightly browned. Top
with sliced strawberries and black pepper.
Stuff into Peppadew or sweet cherry pep-
pers.
Top a log of goat cheese with crumbled
bacon and thinly sliced scallions.
MANCHEGO CHEESE
Skewer cubes of manchego with
Castelvetrano olives and grape tomatoes.
Stuff pitted dates with a piece of
manchego, then wrap each date with half a
slice of prosciutto. Broil for 3 to 4 minutes.
Make a slaw by slicing fennel paper
thin, shredding manchego, then tossing
both with 2 tablespoons chopped fresh tar-
ragon, 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 table-
spoon white balsamic vinegar, salt and
black pepper.
ASPARAGUS
Start by arranging the spears (bottoms
trimmed) on a baking sheet, misting them
with cooking spray, then roasting for 10
minutes at 400 F. Then:
Toss with thinly sliced sun-dried toma-
toes and a bit of the oil from the jar they
were packed in.
Toss with a vinaigrette made from 1
tablespoon olive oil, 1 tablespoon red wine
vinegar, 2 cloves minced garlic, salt and
black pepper.
Toss with hoisin sauce and a drizzle of
toasted sesame oil. Garnish with thinly
sliced scallions.
ROASTED RED PEPPERS
Save yourself time and trouble by using
jarred. Just drain them well and pat dry with
paper towels.
Finely dice and toss the peppers with the
zest and juice of 1 lemon, 2 tablespoons
chopped fresh oregano and 2 cloves minced
garlic.
Slice and mix with 4 mashed anchovies,
2 tablespoons rinsed chopped capers and
1/4 teaspoon red pepper akes.
Make a roasted red pepper chimichurri
pesto. In a food processor, combine a 12-
ounce jar of red peppers (drained), 1/2 cup
fresh parsley, 2 tablespoons fresh oregano,
1/4 cup fresh mint, 2 tablespoons olive oil,
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar, salt and a
pinch of red pepper akes. Pulse until nely
chopped.
PITTED KALAMATA OLIVES

1 tablespoon minced fresh rosemary, the

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SYRACUSE, Sicily Sicilians
pride themselves on their contribu-
tion to the world of ice cream.
History may not credit them defini-
tively with the invention of the
frozen treat, but it turns out that
nature allowed them to have ice long
before electricity made its way to the
Mediterranean island.
If you visit Mount Etna, the
regions famous volcano, you can
find ice trapped below layers of vol-
canic ash, insulating it from warm
weather. In a region known for its
cuisine, the ice provided an option
for chilling and preserving food long
before modern refrigeration.
And within Italy, which already
takes credit for making gelato a
world favorite, Sicilians deservedly
top the list of the best ice-cream
makers. Their brioscia, a warm
sweet bun loaded with ice cream, is
one of the regions top confections.
The sheer number of calories in it
around 1,800 per serving make it
somewhat daunting, but it certainly
should be tried at least once. I asked a
Sicilian friend how people could eat
it day after day, and he said, We dont
eat it after the meal. Its the meal
itself. We just have that for lunch in
the summer. What a treat!
On a recent trip here, I found the
sights, stunning as they are, took a
backseat to the food, and I spent
seven days on a quest for Sicilys best
ice cream. I tried ice cream parlors in
most of the islands big cities, and
many of its small ones. And while
what makes great ice cream is certain-
ly subjective, the main criteria for me
were texture and taste. You dont want
the sugar to overpower everything
else in the ice cream. And you dont
want it to be too soft. It should in fact
feel like you are biting into it at
least thats what I like.
With that in mind, and mouth, and
after a couple of dozen cones, the tro-
phy went to La Voglia Matta, which
literally translates to crazy desire.
The corner mom-and-pop parlor in
Syracuse is a couple of blocks across
the bridge from Ortygia, the touristy
center. Voglia Matta is nearly
unknown to tourists; I found it
through a friend who was born and
raised in the city. His recommenda-
tion was confirmed by several restau-
rant owners and hotel receptionists.
Excited, we strolled to the shop one
late evening to find the place buzzing
with teenagers and young adults and
their parents lining up for a cone.
With the first bite of their chocolate
flavor, all doubts were gone. Its dif-
ficult to explain why its so good; it
just is. Dense, colorful yet honest
flavors almost 60 in total daz-
zle the eyes before the mouth. The ice
cream is fresh, daily made on the
premises. The shop is also famous for
cakes, although we never ventured
there. The ice cream was more than
enough.
Pistachio is a famous regional fla-
vor, but make sure you also try carru-
ba derived from the carob tree.
An honorable mention should go to
Gelateria degli Angeli, a small chain
in Sicilys southeastern towns of
Ragusa, Scicli and Modica.
We were so smitten by Vogl i a
Mattas offerings that everything
after that paled in comparison. On
our last night, we ventured out to find
good ice cream in Catania, our last
stop. We got three different recom-
mendations, and an hour later three
cones had been discarded in trash
bins across the city center. No need
to waste the calories on bad ice
cream.

Wednesday Jan. 1, 2014 THEDAILYJOURNAL
By Elizabeth Karmel
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
With the exception of a good margarita,
Ive never been one for mixed drinks.
Which doesnt mean I dont like a great
cocktail.
I just tend to be very selective about the
cocktails I love. And the ones I love tend
to be simple and made mostly from brown
liquors, such as bourbon and rye. The rea-
son is simple. I dont like lots of mixtures
of unidentifiable alcohols. Not only are
they usually overly sweet, but they are a
headache literally!
And I recently learned just how impor-
tant each element is to making a terrific
simple cocktail. Because when youre
working with just a few ingredients,
everything even the ice matters.
I learned this when I visited Mike
Hudman, Andy Ticer and Nick Talarico at
Hog & Hominy in Memphis, Tenn. I loved
Hog & Hominy before I ever walked
through the front door just because of the
name, which is an old moniker for the
state of Tennessee, as in the Hog &
Hominy state.
Everything they do in their fused
together American Southern and Italian
restaurant, they do with care. But the real
reason to visit Hog & Hominy is their
artisanal cocktail bar, where handcrafted
ice balls are put to very good use. Under
the guise of ordering a drink to try one of
their signature BIG ice balls, I asked them
to make me whatever cocktail they
thought I would like.
Take about attention to detail... The ice
balls are made from triple-distilled water
and hand-carved by a local ice carver. They
are perfectly clear like those sculptures
you see in hotel ballrooms.
The balls are about 2 inches in diameter
and they literally fill the whole glass.
They are priced a la cart for $3 each. But
before you gasp in shock, I must tell you
that the ball will last all night and hardly
melts, thus preventing that awful dilution
that cocktail lovers dread.
Talarico set down a beautiful drink of
brown water and a great waft of fresh
orange oil greeted me before I took my
first sip. It was their version of an old
fashioned and there was nothing typically
old fashioned about it. I fell in love with
it immediately. In fact, our whole table
did, including several whiskey haters.
Needless to say, after the second drink,
we were unified in our love for Talaricos
old fashioned. So much so, that I had to
learn to make it!
The crew at Hog & Hominy are purists
and set out to uncover the original recipe
for an old fashioned before it got bogged
down in sweet fruits and watered down with
way too much club soda. They went all the
way back to a couple of old bartender
books, including one from 1887.
What makes this old fashioned so much
better for me is that the cherries and their
sticky sweet pink syrup are gone. The
sweet notes are natural and perfect for the
holidays orange and vanilla and spice.
A big strip of orange zest is twisted to
release the oils and rubbed all over the
inside of the glass, creating the bold citrus
aroma. It is removed and then placed in the
glass as a garnish once the drink is made.
Great bourbons are rich with notes of
vanilla and spice, and those are essential
for this recipe. And two kinds of bitters
are essential here orange bitters to bal-
ance out the sweet orange oil, as well as
the classic unmistakable flavor of
Angostora bitters.
And of course youll want a large ice
ball. Plenty of companies sell trays to
make large cubes, so start there. And in a
pinch, regular ice is fine.
NICKS OLD FASHIONED
To make the orange twist, use a veg-
etable peeler or paring knife and slice a
long strip of zest off a clean orange.
Make sure not to include the bitter white
pi t h.
Start to finish: 10 minutes
Servings: 1
2- to 3-inch strip of orange zest
1 demerara sugar cube (or 1 teaspoon raw
sugar)
3 drops orange bitters
1 drop Angostura bitters
1 tablespoon club soda
2 ounces bourbon (or rye)
1 big or 4 normal ice cubs
Twist the orange zest to help release its
oils, then rub it along the inside of a tum-
bler, as well as along the rim. Reserve the
zest.
Place the sugar in the bottom of the tum-
bler. Add both bitters directly to the sugar.
Pour the club soda over the sugar to help
to dissolve the sugar crystals. Muddle
until melted. Add the bourbon and mix.
When the mixture is smooth, add the ice.
Slide the reserved orange twist into the
side of the glass so it sits between the ice
and glass. Serve immediately.
Simple cocktails that are sensational
Great bourbons are rich with notes of vanilla and spice,and those are essential for this recipe.
And two kinds of bitters are essential here orange bitters to balance out the sweet orange
oil, as well as the classic unmistakable avor of Angostora bitters.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
DUBAI, United Arab Emirates
With reworks, dancing and late-
night revelry, millions around the
world welcomed 2014 on Tuesday,
gathering for huge displays of jubi-
lation and unity as the new year
arrived.
Dubai, a Persian Gulf city known
for glitz, glamour and over-the-top
achievements like the worlds
tallest skyscraper, sought to break
another record by creating the
largest reworks show.
In Ukraine, anti-government
protesters hoped to set their own
record for the most people to sing a
national anthem at the same time.
Crowds heading to New York
Citys Times Square could expect
the traditional ball drop but no
mayor this year. The new year was
to be rung in by U.S. Supreme
Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor
instead.
The Dubai skyline was a canvas
for a dazzling 30-minute show cap-
ping off with six minutes of re-
works that engulfed the citys man-
made, palm-shaped island, with its
fronds and trunk shimmering in
thousands of lights.
Organizers had promised that the
reworks would form a ying fal-
con, sunrise and United Arab
Emirates ag. It was not immedi-
ately clear if the promised designs
or world record had been achieved.
In total, the extravaganza was
slated to include half a million re-
works from 400 ring locations
synchronized by 100 computers,
said Barrett Wissman, co-chairman
of IMG Artists, which was manag-
ing the event. The company also
organized the grand reworks for
the Atlantis hotel opening on
Dubais Palm island in 2008.
The spectacle erupted at mid-
night at the worlds tallest sky-
scraper, the Burj Khalifa, and
moved to the citys sail-shaped
Burj Al-Arab hotel before ending at
the Palm.
It is really mind-blowing the
size of this, Wissman said of the
display.
The reworks display was slated
to surpass the current world record
held by another Gulf Arab state in
just the rst 60 seconds. Kuwait has
held the record since last year, when
it red more than 77,000 reworks
in a display lasting more than an
hour.
Guinness World Record ofcials
were on hand to measure the scale of
Dubais event, which needed to be
longer than ve minutes to qualify.
On Kievs main square, at least
100,000 Ukrainians sang their
national anthem in a sign of sup-
port for integration with Europe.
The square has been the scene of
massive pro-European protests for
more than a month, triggered by
President Viktor Yanukovychs
decision to ditch a key deal with
the European Union.
Britain planned to welcome
2014 with a mixture of futuristic
reworks and torch-lit tradition.
For people in London, the New
Year offered the opportunity to
taste the reworks.
The citys mayor in conjunc-
tion with telecommunications
company Vodafone said this
years explosive display would
come packed with peach-avored
snow, edible banana confetti and
orange-scented bubbles, allowing
people to feast with more than just
their eyes. The multisensory dis-
play will also include scratch-and-
sniff programs, LED wristbands
and fruit-avored sweets.
In Sydney, Australia, reworks
organizers expected to set off 7
metric tons (7.7 U.S. tons) of
pyrotechnics in 12 seconds in a
display that sprayed from the sails
of the Sydney Opera House and the
citys harbor bridge.
It lled up the whole sky, said
Mona Rucek, a 28-year-old tourist
from Munich, Germany.
Closer to the International
Dateline, New Zealand concluded
2013 with its own reworks that
erupted from Aucklands Sky Tower
while cheering crowds danced in
the streets of the South Pacic
island nations largest city.
In Tokyo, five priests at the
Zojoji temple used ropes to swing a
wooden pole against a large bell,
sounding the rst of 108 gongs to
mark the new year.
Simultaneously, 2014 lit up in
white lights on the modern Tokyo
Tower in the background.
