A look at new laws of 2014
As we start the New Year, I thought it might be good time to look at a few of the new laws that could affect the way we do things. The hardworking men and women of our government write, review and pass thousands of laws every year, but we'll focus on a few that could affect our real estate.
‘Silent Sky’: A woman ahead of her time
First of all, please understand this is a play about a real woman who lived and produced amazing information in her male-dominated (keep a woman in her place) field of astronomy in the early 20th century.
Getting Out: Find your path at Calero County Park
The trail map of Calero County Park resembles an interlocking network of loops that allows a hiker to string them together in any number of ways. Any trail you choose will, at some point, present you with the option of continuing on and circling back or starting a new loop that itself will loop 360 degrees back to the same junction. Since our next Mt. Tallac Challenge prep hike is at Calero County Park, I decided to revisit familiar trails as well as walk some new ground.
Co-pastors combine gifts
The congregations of two historic South Valley churches are engaged in an exciting experiment. The Gilroy United Methodist Church (7600 Church St.) and Morgan Hill United Methodist Church (17175 Monterey St.) have shared co-pastors since July. Even more intriguing is the fact that the ministers involved are married to each other.
Parents plunk down cash to create senior memories
Here we are, halfway through my son's senior year of high school and I have learned something very important: Senior year is more expensive than any other year of high school. Basically, it's the year that parents spend like drunken Beverly Hills housewives using their soon-to-be-ex-husband's black AMEX for the last time.

At last, a rivalry game well worth developing a Sunday game plan for
Sunday Night Lights. That’s what we’re talking about. It will be under typically dour-gray skies when the San Francisco 49ers travel north to clash with their new rivals, the Seattle Seahawks. The lights will come on for the National Football Conference championship. It’s a late afternoon game – 3:30 west coast start – built for prime time TV around the country and it has EPIC written all over it. As a longtime 49ers fan, you have to love it. There’s nothing better to stoke the fan fires than a bitter rivalry, and this new Hatfield-and-McCoys-worthy feud harkens back to the old days when the Los Angeles Rams were all things rotten. This blossoming match-up might even be better since the trash-yakking Seahawks are coached by “Pretty Boy” Pete Carroll who left USC just in time to duck under the trail of rules violations and NCAA sanctions. Former Stanford and now 49ers coach Jim Harbaugh doesn’t like Pete one bit, and that’s the thing he’ll have to overcome to win Sunday. Jim would like nothing better than to run it down Pete’s team’s throat – especially in the Red Zone. But he has to be smarter than that, he has to be creative offensively when it counts, he has to balance smash-mouth football with Bill Walsh genius and he has to pretend that squeaky Pete on the opposite sideline is just a lousy rendition of a Disney character.
