Two bald eagle chicks hatch
on Californias Santa Cruz Island
LOS ANGELES Two bald eagle
chicks have hatched in a nest high in a
tree in Californias Channel Islands
National Park.
Park officials say the first egg
hatched Saturday and the second bird
poked its head out of its shell Monday
in Sauces Canyon on Santa Cruz Island.
Officials say its the first successful
hatch after three years of attempts for
the parents.
The 11-year old male was brought to
the island in 2005 and the female
arrived in 2006 as part of an ongoing
recovery effort.
Bald eagles disappeared from the
Channel Islands by the 1960s because
of DDT contamination. Since 2006, the
birds have re-established territories on
most of the eight islands.
The Sauces Canyon bald eagle pair is
the first to lay eggs this season across
the Channel Islands.

Officials OK Burlingame office building


Project approved after redesign to blend with community character
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

A redesigned office building previously


plagued by criticism regarding perceived
incompatibility with its surroundings is on
track to rise near the Burlingame Caltrain
station, under approval granted by city officials.
A proposal to build a mixed-use threestory building at 988 Howard Ave. received
unanimous support from the Burlingame
Planning Commission during a meeting
Monday, March 14.
Commissioners rejected a previous iteration of the project in January, citing concerns regarding an inability to blend with
the surrounding neighborhood, but ultimately decided those issues had been adequately
addressed through revisions made since the
initial discussion.
Commissioner Michael Gaul lauded the
responsiveness of applicant Dimitrios
Sogas and architect Toby Levy for integrating the criticism offered previously by officials in developing a more palatable project.
Youve done a great job of making a good
looking building, said Gaul.
The project is set to house 22,295 square
feet of office space split between two stories
over 1,325 of ground floor retail space
located on the corner of Howard Avenue and
Myrtle Road, just steps from the Burlingame

Courts: California traffic


amnesty program helped thousands
SAN FRANCISCO State authorities
reported Tuesday that tens of thousands of
California drivers have had traffic fines and
court fees reduced under an amnesty program
pushed by Gov. Jerry Brown to help the
poor.
More than 58,000 drivers benefited from

Caltrain station, at the site of the former


Olde English Garage auto repair shop.
Sogas said he has sensed an appetite in the
community for his building, and expressed
excitement to bring it to fruition.
Im really proud of what weve accomplished here, he said. I think weve got a
really great project.
Commissioners voted 4-3 during a meeting Jan. 11 to deny an earlier version of the
project, due largely to beliefs the size, scope
and placement of the building did not blend
well with the surrounding neighborhood,
which serves as a transition between the
citys commercial district and nearby
homes.
The amended design scales down the
height of the project by reducing the size and
location of a deck proposed on the roof,
which helps make the building appear nearly 7 feet shorter than the previous plans.
Sogas said project designers accomplished the goal of making the building
appear less massive.
Weve done a pretty good job of making
it look smaller, he said.
The color of the project siding was also
adjusted to fit better with the surrounding
homes and buildings, said Levy.
Levy said she believed the proposal was
improved through feedback offered by the
commission, and the applicants worked hard
to integrate those instructions into the

amended project.
Commissioner Peter Gum said he was
impressed by the redesigned building.
Im in favor of the project, he said.
Nirmala Bandrapalli, one of the commissioners along with Richard Terrones and
Richard Sargent who voted previously in
favor of the project, echoed a similar sentiment.
This looks really great. Its a great project, she said. It fits very well in the neighborhood.
She said she also appreciated the proposal
to use innovative methods, such as car
stacking mechanisms and offering one designated spot for car sharing vehicles, to
offer adequate parking at the site.
A majority of the 67 parking spots will be
housed in an underground lot, with a few
spaces scattered on the street, accessible
from East Lane.
Due to the proximity of the project near
the citys train station, Sogas questioned
whether all the parking spaces would be necessary, as he expects many of those who
work in the office building to access it by
taking public transportation.
Ultimately though, the commission
agreed the project would be an asset and a
welcome addition to the outskirts of downtown Burlingame.
Im looking forward to seeing it, said
Gaul.

Barack Obama delivers remarks on divisiveness in U.S. politics at the annual Friends of Ireland Luncheon at the U.S. Capitol.

Obama dismayed by vulgarity


and violence of campaign trail
By Kevin Freking
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON President Barack


Obama said Tuesday he was dismayed
by vulgar and divisive rhetoric
directed at women and minorities as
well as the violence that has occurred
in the 2016 presidential campaign, a
swipe at Republican front-runner
Donald Trump that also served as a
challenge to other political leaders to
speak out and set a better example.
The longer that we allow the political rhetoric of late to continue and the
longer that we tacitly accept it, we create a permission structure that allows
the animosity in one corner of our politics to infect our broader society,
Obama said. And animosity breeds
animosity.
Without mentioning the GOP candidate by name, Obama used a unity

luncheon at the Capitol to express his


concern with the nations political
discourse and the protests that have
escalated to attacks at the Trump rallies. The candidate has spoken of barring Muslims from entering the country and deporting immigrants living
here illegally.
Obama pleaded for civility and said
political leaders can either condone
this race to the bottom or reject it.
We have heard vulgar and divisive
rhetoric aimed at women and minorities, and Americans that dont look
like us or pray like us or vote like we
do, Obama said at the annual Friends
of Ireland luncheon.
Obama also emphasized that efforts
to shut down free speech were misguided. Protesters forced Trump to
cancel a rally in Chicago on Friday. He
said he rejects any effort to spread fear
or encourage violence or shut people

down while they are trying to speak.


We live in a country where free
speech is one of the most important
rights that we hold. In response to
those events weve seen actual violence, and weve heard silence from
too many of our leaders, Obama said.
Trumps political rivals and others
blame him for sowing division, rather
than unity, across the country. Trump
says hes done no such thing and calls
himself a uniter.
Obama said that while some may
bear more of the blame for the ugly
political climate, everyone bears
responsibility for reversing it.
It is a cycle that is not an accurate
reflection of America. It has to stop,
Obama said. And I say that not as a
matter of political correctness, its
about the way that corrosive behavior
can undermine our democracy and our
society and even our economy.

WASHINGTON In a major reversal, the Obama administration said Tuesday it will bar oil drilling off Americas
Atlantic Coast, a move cheered by environmentalists and
consistent with the presidents aggressive steps to combat
climate change.
Interior Secretary Sally Jewell said the decision protects
the Atlantic for future generations. She said the administration had listened to thousands of people in coastal communities from Florida to New England who said, Now is not
the time to start leasing off the Atlantic Coast.
However, business groups and most Republicans criticized it as another example of what they call executive overreach.
Despite a surge in oil and natural gas production in the
past seven years that has helped push gasoline prices below
$2 a gallon, Republicans and industry groups have criticized
President Barack Obama for imposing what they say are
unnecessary regulations on drilling, especially on federal
lands. Most of the drilling boom has occurred on state and
private lands and in the Gulf of Mexico, long the center of
U.S. offshore oil production.
The decision reverses a proposal made last year in which
the administration floated a plan that would have opened up
a broad swath of the Atlantic Coast to drilling. That January
2015 proposal would have opened up sites more than 50
miles off Virginia, North and South Carolina and Georgia to
oil drilling no earlier than 2021.
Obama, in his final year in office, is working to build an
environmental legacy that includes a global agreement to
curb climate change and an ambitious plan to reduce carbon
pollution from coal-fired power plants. He also has imposed
stricter limits on smog-causing pollution linked to asthma
and has rejected the Keystone XL oil pipeline from Canada.
The proposal on Atlantic drilling is likely to become an
issue in the 2016 presidential campaign. Both Democratic
candidates oppose it, while Republicans vow to expand
drilling.
The plan announced Tuesday covers potential lease sales
from 2017 to 2022 and calls for leasing 10 areas in the Gulf
and three off the Alaska coast.
A coalition of groups that oppose Atlantic drilling had
organized protests and petitions in southeastern and midAtlantic states, often running into opposition from governors and other political leaders.

WASHINGTON Prescription painkillers


should not be a first choice for treating common ailments like back pain and arthritis,
according to new federal guidelines designed
to reshape how doctors prescribe drugs like
OxyContin and Vicodin.
Amid an epidemic of addiction and abuse
tied to these powerful opioids drugs, the
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
is urging primary care doctors to try physical
therapy, exercise and over-the-counter pain
medications before turning to painkillers for
chronic pain. Opioid drugs include medications like morphine and oxycodone as well

Local brief

Broadway

WASHINGTON Its already being branded #Metromageddon.


Hundreds of thousands of Washington,
D.C., workers were preparing for a potentially soul-sucking commute with the rail system
serving the nations capital facing a full-day
shutdown Wednesday for an emergency safety
inspection of its third-rail power cables.
The federal government took some of the
pressure off the citys traffic-choked highways by announcing Tuesday that workers
have the option to take the day off or
telecommute. The announcement from the
Office of Personnel Management came under
pressure from several members of Congress
who said their constituents would have no
way to get to work.
The Metro systems general manager, Paul
Wiedefeld, said the closure was necessary to

ensure the safety of passengers after a series


of electrical fires on the tracks.
While the risk to the public is very low, I
cannot rule out a potential life and safety
issue here, and this is why we must take this
action immediately, he said.
Metro is the nations second-busiest transit network: Its six rail lines and 91 stations
serve more than 700,000 riders daily, and it is
a vital link for federal workers and other commuters to Washington from Maryland and
Virginia. The system will shut down at midnight Tuesday and remain closed for 29 hours
until 5 a.m. Thursday.
D.C. Councilmember Jack Evans, the
chairman of Metros board, said that while
the system had previously been closed for
days for weather, including earlier this year,
Wednesday was believed to be the first time
the system would be shut down for mechanical reasons.
A fire on the tracks led to major delays

The new recommendations which doctors do not have to follow represent an
effort to reverse nearly two decades of rising
painkiller use, which public health officials
blame for a more than four-fold increase in
overdose deaths tied to the drugs. In 2014,
U.S. doctors wrote nearly 200 million prescriptions for opioid painkillers, while
deaths linked to the drugs climbed to roughly
19,000 the highest number on record.

White House punches new holes in embargo on Cuba


By Michael Weissenstein
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

HAVANA The Obama administration


punched a new series of holes in the U.S.
trade embargo on Cuba on Tuesday, turning a
ban on U.S. tourism to Cuba into an unenforceable honor system and paving the way
for Cuban athletes to one day play Major
League Baseball and other U.S. professional
sports.
Five days ahead of the first presidential trip
to Havana in nearly 90 years, the U.S. also
eliminated a ban on Cuban access to the
international banking system. The inability
to send or receive payments that passed
through the U.S. banking system had crippled the countrys ability to trade with third
countries and became a major hindrance to
the U.S. attempt to normalize relations with
Cuba.
The simple basis of our policy is that by
loosening these restrictions we are better
able to engage with the Cuban people, to
support them and to build bridges between
our two countries, deputy national security
adviser Ben Rhodes said. We deeply believe
that this is in Americas national interest.

The Cuban government made no immediate


comment. Tuesdays announcement allows
Cuban citizens to earn salaries in the United
States as long as they dont pay special taxes
in Cuba, specifically mentioning athletes,
artists and performers as potential beneficiaries. Until Tuesday, only Cubans who had
begun the process of emigrating to the U.S.
could legally earn money in the United States
beyond a tiny living stipend.
Major League Baseball is negotiating with
both the U.S. and Cuban government to create a legal means for Cuban baseball players
to play in the U.S. without having to abandon their country, eliminating the need for
some of the worlds highest-priciest baseball
talent to use human traffickers to get to the
major leagues.
As for ordinary Americans, they can now
take people-to-people educational trips to
Cuba on their own instead of joining expensive group tours. That means any American
can legally go to Cuba after filling out a form
asserting that their trip is for educational purposes instead of tourism. Theyll have to
keep records for five years about what they
did in Cuba, but wont have to submit them
unless asked.

Police: One man found dead
after raid linked to Paris attacks
BRUSSELS Police found a man dead when they stormed
a house in Brussels at the end of a major anti-terror operation Tuesday, several hours after they were shot at during a
raid linked to last years attacks in Paris, a prosecutor said.
It was not clear whether the dead man was one of the suspects sought in the raid earlier Tuesday in the Forest neighborhood of Brussels, the Belgian capital where several of
the Paris attackers lived. Four police officers from the
French-Belgian operation were injured when at least one
suspect opened fire through the door, apparently with an
assault weapon, French Interior Minister Bernard
Cazeneuve said.
Forest mayor Marc-Jean Ghyssels told local media two
people had barricaded themselves in a home during the raid,
but it was not clear what happened to them.
The prosecutor, who asked not to be identified because the
operation was not finished, said it was not clear if suspects
from the raid were on the run. He said many people fled the
area when they heard gunfire, and it was too early to say if
some were suspects or all were just people trying to escape.

Senior Islamic State commander dies

BAGHDAD Omar al-Shishani, a


top Islamic State commander who was
a magnet for fighters from the former
Soviet Union, has
died of wounds suffered in a U. S.
airstrike in Syria, a
senior Iraqi intelligence official and
the head of a Syrian
activist group said

Al-Shishani, who
was wounded in a U.S. airstrike earlier
this month, died on Monday evening
outside the Islamic State groups main
stronghold of Raqqa in Syria, the two
told the Associated Press. A U.S. military spokesman confirmed the reports.
The IS-affiliated Aamaq news agency
cited an unnamed source as denying
that al-Shishani was wounded or
killed, without providing any evidence
that he was still alive.
The red-bearded al-Shishani, who
was in his 30s, was one of the most
prominent IS commanders, appearing
in several online videos leading fighters into battle. He served as the top
commander in Syria before being
appointed to lead three elite units that

and Iraq, according to Hisham alHashimi, an Iraqi scholar who closely
follows the group.
Al-Shishani, whose real name was
Tarkhan Batirashvili, was born in the
Pankisi Valley, a predominantly ethnic Chechen region within the former
Soviet republic of Georgia.
He did military service in the
Georgian army but was discharged after
an unspecified illness, a former neighbor told the Associated Press in 2014.
Georgian police later arrested him for

illegal possession of arms, the neighbor said. Upon his release in 2010,
Batirashvili left for Turkey.
He first surfaced in Syria in 2013
with his nom de guerre, which means
Omar the Chechen in Arabic, leading
an al-Qaida-inspired group called The
Army of Emigrants and Partisans,
which included a large number of fighters from the former Soviet Union.

from the Caucasus region joined IS
because of al-Shishani, al-Hashimi

MOSCOW Russian warplanes and


troops stationed at Russias air base in
Syria started leaving for home on
Tuesday after a partial pullout order from
President Vladimir Putin the previous
day, a step that raises hopes for progress
at the newly reconvened U.N.-brokered
peace talks in Geneva.
The U.N. special envoy for Syria
called Putins announcement a significant development. Staffan de Mistura
said in a statement that his team hoped
the Russian drawdown would have a
positive impact on the negotiations
aimed at finding a political solution to
Syrias war and a peaceful political
transition in the country.

Putin announced
the withdrawal of
most of the Russian
forces from Syria on
Monday, just hours
after de Mistura had
reconvened indirect
peace talks between
representatives of
Vladimir Putin Syrian President
Bashar Assads government and those of the so-called moderate opposition. After meeting with a
government delegation on Monday, the
U.N. envoy was to meet with opposition representatives on Tuesday. Later
Tuesday, Putins spokesman Dmitry
Peskov denied that Russias decision
was prompted by Kremlins displeasure
with the Syrian governments tough
position in the negotiations or that

it was intended to put pressure on Assad.


Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad
Javad Zarif Zarif welcomed Russias
decision to begin withdrawing forces
from Syria, saying it indicated that
Moscow doesnt see an imminent need
to use force for maintaining the ceasefire, which is fragile but holding.
That in and of itself should be a positive sign. Now we have to wait and
see, Zarif said during a visit to
Australia.
Russias Defense Ministry said a
group of Su-34 bombers was the first to
depart on Tuesday, accompanied by a
military transport aircraft. The planes
would be making stops at airfields in
Russia for refueling and technical
checks since some of them are stationed
more than 3,100 miles away from the
Syria base, the ministry said.

The Oracle of Omaha

Spring forward, and keep it there

his Sunday, we went about the


annual exercise of setting our
clocks forward one hour to
adhere to daylight saving time, a policy enacted through Proposition 12 in
1949.
Many enjoy the extra hour of sunlight in the evening but also dont
like the period of adjustment that
comes with changing our schedules
by an hour. And anyone with small
children can attest to the difculty of
adjusting bed times. Additionally,
many bemoan the shift in the fall that
requires us to set our clocks back an
hour as we move to standard time in
the winter, which also means our
nights are darker earlier.
In response, Assemblyman Kansan
Chu, D-San Jose, is proposing legislation that would ask voters to do

Editorial
away with Proposition 12 and eliminate daylight saving time altogether.
It has provoked a lot of attention,
with some people agreeing with the
change and many bringing up the
inherent aws of the original law. It
was intended to allow for farmers to
spend more time harvesting during
summer nights and save energy since
people would require less articial
light. However, many farmers complained that the morning was too dark
and it has been unclear how much
energy was actually saved. But whatever. The primary source of discontent
when it comes to daylight saving
time is the switching back and forth.

Most people actually enjoy the later


sunlight hours in the summer and
dont like the fact that the sun sets
before 5 p.m. on some winter nights.
So forget about the original intent
of the legislation to help farmers or
save energy and lets just adopt daylight saving time as our standard time
throughout the year. Though many
clocks now switch themselves, there
are still enough clocks to make it a
hassle. But the real hassle is in adjusting our sleep and work schedules
twice a year for no known benet.
Assemblyman Chu brought this up
with his legislation and the real issue
is eliminating the fall backward,
spring forward thing. So lets be done
with it, but lets keep our clocks
where they are right now.

Letters to the editor


My patience is ticking away
Editor,
Daylight saving time has existed in
America for 100 years, yet this is the
rst year I have seen any complaints
or studies against it. Why? Because
the people complaining about it have
nothing to do in life and all day to do
it.
Daylight saving time started after
World War I as an effort to save energy. The statements that daylight saving time doesnt save energy are a lie.
Obviously if the sun rises earlier in
the morning, then fewer houses,
buildings, ofces, etc. have to turn
their lights on. Fewer people have to
drive to work with their car lights on.
When the sun stays up longer during
summer evenings, that means more
houses, buildings, ofces, etc. dont
have to turn on their lights as much.
Fewer people driving home from
work have to use their cars lights. So
daylight savings time does save energy.
The statements that more car accidents happen and people suffer up to
three weeks after switching their
clocks times are also lies. There is
no documented proof either statement
is true. Why do people resort to lying
just to try to support their own opinion? Our government has always
scheduled daylight saving time on
weekends. Why? Because in the old
days, most people worked Monday
through Friday and had weekends off.
So with weekends off, citizens could
get used to the switch in time by
either sleeping in longer or getting
up earlier, or going to bed earlier or
staying up longer; it was their
choice. Either way, they had a full day
to rest and get used to the change in
time. There was never any problems.

The importance of ice rinks


Editor,
After 60 years of providing a place

at all hours of the day and night, and
where hundreds of young people of all
ages and abilities develop critical
skills perseverance, self-condence and the ability to work together

rain or shine, Belmont Iceland is
closing. Driving into a packed parking lot last weekend for a competition that included my 10-year-old
daughter whos skated there since she
was 4, and drew skaters from across
the Bay Area, it was impossible to
imagine.
Rinks to the north and south,
already operating at capacity, cant
absorb much from the soon-to-be
closed rink, especially for teams
needing practice ice. There is still
hope that the Bridgepointe rink will
open, despite its being mired in an
ugly battle for years. If not, I hope a
new rink will be built that can serve
the Peninsula. A viable solution will
require a real appreciation of the value
of the community benet derived by
it, resoluteness, commitment, creative problem-solving and, of course,
money. But it is possible.

odays child of the affluent society has every


miraculous opportunity that technology can
invent; the only thing that is lacking is
humanity. Eda LeShan, The Conspiracy Against
Childhood.
I have often admired Warren Buffett who, though one of
the wealthiest men in the United States, lives a lifestyle
of moderation in spite of it and contributes much to worthy causes. Thats why I was surprised to read what he
included in his letter to the stockholders of Berkshire
Hathaway about todays babies. For one, The babies
born in America today are the luckiest crop in history.
Add, Americas kids will live far better than their parents did. And a real shocker: Todays politicians need
not shed tears for tomorrows children.
I searched the Web and
read the complete letter and
couldnt find where Buffett
might have told us just
how he figures that todays
babies are so lucky. When I
think of my great-grandchildren and compare their
future possibilities with
their parents and grandparents, I cant see where
things are any better in
any way except maybe
technologically and/or
economically for those in
the upper classes. Yes, the
well-heeled have it pretty good when it comes to
finances and opportunities, but there are a lot of ways
that a great many of todays babies wont be doing so
well. Let me list a few.
1). Even more will be living with parents who are both
employed, often due to the fact that it is harder these
days for many families to exist, much less thrive, in
todays economy. More jobs do not come with benefits
and are not stable when it comes to hours and job security. As a result, more and more babies and young children
are being left in day care or in the charge of a caregiver
who may or may not be reliable. It also results in parents
having much less time to care for and nurture their children in a way that promotes a childs health and wellbeing. 2). The food they will be eating is much less
nourishing than it used to be due to the facts that fewer
meals are prepared at home and that fast and prepared
foods are so easily available and often inexpensive (I
can see where the Coca-Cola guzzling Buffet may not
relate to this). 3). They are bombarded with a opportunistic media that increasingly becomes a sump hole of
violence, sensuality and mindlessness. 4). And what will
they have to look forward to when it comes to higher
education? They will no doubt face huge tuition debt that
will interfere with starting a family and owning a home.
What Sylvia Ann Hewlett wrote in her book, When
the Bough Breaks way back in 1991 is still very relevant: For the last 25 years the proportion of mothers in
the paid labor force has tripled, and the number of children growing up without a father has increased by a factor of two. The central consequences for children has
been little contact with parents and large quantities of
time badly spent. ... Hundreds of thousands of kids have
been left to fend for themselves in a society that is
increasingly inhospitable to children. And 25 years
later?
Sorry, Warren, I have to challenge you. As Jim Tyler
wrote: Our government long ago gave in to big business, special interests and the bottom line. In doing so,
it rejected the very values on which our country was
founded and has shown only politically expedient concern for our children. Your Children Are Under
Attack. Maybe, in some ways like the proliferation
of technology some of todays babies will have
opportunities that children have never had before. But
when it comes to their physical, emotional and spiritual
well-being, they are facing an ever more hostile culture
that basically uses them for its own benefit. This
includes parents who are so overwhelmed by the challenges of modern life that their children are losing out
on many of the more important things that lead to a
rewarding and fulfilling life to greedy corporate interests
only interested in profits and a government that does not
regulate adequately.
Our childrens well-being is increasingly being jeopardized by corporations that, in their drive for profits,
often imperil their health and carry on like our children
can suffer from neglect and a lack of adequate nurturing
without serious consequences.
There is little question that our children are living in
a world that is not simply oblivious to their needs, but
is actually damaging them. Madeline Levine, Teach
Your Children Well.

disclosing how much of the traffic

Encryption shields 77 percent of
the requests sent from around the
world to Googles data centers, up
from 52 percent at the end of 2013,
according to company statistics
released Tuesday.
The numbers cover all Google

Encryption is a security measure


that scrambles transmitted information so its unintelligible if its

Google began emphasizing the
need to encrypt peoples online

National Security Agency contractor Edward Snowden revealed that
the U.S. government had been vacuuming up personal data transferred
over the Internet. The surveillance
programs exploited gaping holes
in unencrypted websites.
While rolling out more encryption on its services, Google has

Cougars open PAL play with shutout win


By Nathan Mollat

and if her start is any indication, the


Cougars have one of the best pitchers in the
league. Grace Garcia, who started a handful
of games last season, got the league-opening start and was in midseason form. Garcia
worked the first five innings, limiting
Burlingame to just two hits and two walks
while striking out 12.
She hits her spots. She throws hard
inside and outside, Rietmann-Grout said.
Garcia found her groove early, striking
out two of the first three batters she faced.
She then went on to strike out the side in the
second, third and fourth innings striking

them out in order in the latter two innings.


At one point, Garcia struck out eight batters
in a row.
When Garcia tweaked an ankle or knee
when her cleat caught on a pitch in the
fourth inning, Rietmann-Grout had just the
right pitcher to bring out of the bullpen for
the final two innings.
Ally Sarabia has been a workhorse the
last two seasons and with Grace forms as
good a 1-2 pitching punch youll see just

The Cougars opened the 2016 Peninsula

strong pitching and defense, aggressive atbats and, most importantly, energy.

While the players controlled how they

PHILADELPHIA The NFL is standing


behind a top executives acknowledgement
that the brain disease CTE can be linked to
football.
The comments by Jeff Miller, the senior
vice president for health and safety, accurately reflect the view of the NFL, league
spokesman Brian McCarthy said Tuesday.
Miller spoke Monday at a congressional
committees roundtable
discussion about concussions.
League officials have
long denied proof of a
connection
between
playing in the NFL and
the condition called
chronic
traumatic
encephalopathy.
Jeff Miller
Miller told the congressional panel that
brain research on former NFL players certainly shows a link between football and
CTE. Responding to questions, Miller referenced the work of Boston University neuropathologist Dr. Ann McKee, who has
found CTE in the brains of 90 former pro
football players.
Well, certainly, Dr. McKees research
shows that a number of retired NFL players
were diagnosed with CTE, so the answer to
that question is certainly yes, but there are
also a number of questions that come with
that, Miller said.
CTE is tied to repeated brain trauma and
associated with symptoms such as memory
loss, depression and progressive dementia.
Players diagnosed after their deaths include
Hall of Famers Junior Seau, Ken Stabler and
Mike Webster.
Critics of the NFLs proposed $1 billion
plan to settle concussion claims call
Millers sudden acknowledgement of a football-CTE connection a game changer.
The settlement is being appealed by players concerned that it excludes future cases of

Serra Jake Killingsworth knocks down a crucial base-line jumper in the fourth quarter of the
Padres 78-70 win over Antelope in the Nor Cal Division II semifinals.

See NFL, Page 16

After ripping No. 9 Leland 83-49 in the


Northern California Division II quarterfinals Saturday, top-seeded Serra appeared
ready to continue its domination in the
semifinals against visiting Antelope
Tuesday night.
Instead, the Padres had to weather a number of Titan runs, the No. 4 seed, in the second half and they needed all 78 of their
points in a 78-70 victory that sends Serra to
the Nor Cal finals for the first time since the
2005 team advanced to the Division II state
championship game.
We made enough plays to get it done,
said Serra coach Chuck Rapp. We withstood
their runs and answered their runs.
Serra will face No. 2 El Cerrito in the Nor
Cal title game at noon Saturday at Sleep
Train Arena in Sacramento. El Cerrito (2213) beat No. 3 Mitty 65-38 in the other
semifinal.
The Padres jumped out to a quick 18-9 lead
after the first quarter and led 41-25 at halftime. When Jack Wilson hit his second of
two free throws with 2:30 to play in the
third quarter, Serra enjoyed a 2-point lead,
58-38.
But this is the semifinals of the Nor Cal
tournament and no team is going to lay
down without a fight and the fourth-seeded
Titans didnt. They finished the third quarter
on an 8-0 run and when Everett Campbell
stole a lazy pass and scored an uncontested
layup, the Titans were within 10, trailing
62-54 with 6:54 to play. After another bucket from Everett and one from Montel Aaron,
Antelope was down just six, 64-58, with
5:07 to play.
But the Padres stayed calm. Jake
Killingsworth, the West Catholic Athletic
League Player of the Year, knocked down a
layup and Jeremiah Testa, who has been
playing out of his mind the last couple of
weeks, added a coast-to-coast layup of his
own to stretch the Serra lead to 68-59.

Sharks stay in hunt for division title, beat Boston


By Josh Dubow
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN JOSE Joonas Donskoi scored a


tiebreaking power-play goal with 13:23
remaining after an offensive zone penalty by
Bostons Jimmy Hayes and the San Jose
Sharks beat the Bruins 3-2 on Tuesday night.
Brent Burns helped set up Donskois goal
and scored one of his own, tying Sandis
Ozolinshs franchise records for goals and
points in a season by a defensemen.

Sharks 3, Bruins 2
Melker Karlsson also scored as San Jose
won consecutive home games for the rst time
in two months to move within one point of
Anaheim for second place in the Pacic
Division.
James Reimer made 21 saves on his 28th
birthday for his rst home win with San Jose.
David Krejci, Loui Eriksson scored for the
Bruins, who had their streak of seven straight
games with a point snapped. Boston fell one

point behind Florida in the Atlantic Division.


Tuukka Rask made 24 saves.
The Sharks went ahead shortly after Hayes
was called for an illegal hit to the head of
Sharks defenseman Justin Braun while Boston
was on the attack. With the second power-play
unit on the ice, Burns slid a cross-ice pass to
Joel Ward, who stopped it with his skate and
red a shot toward the net that Donskoi
deected in for his 11th goal.
Krejci nearly tied it late in the period shortly after Boston killed a penalty. But Reimer

forced him wide on a breakaway and Krejcis


shot hit the post. Reimer then stopped Torey
Krug in close in the nal seconds to seal it.
After being outscored 20-8 in losing all
three home games to the California teams, the
Bruins looked to reverse that trend to start a
three-game California road swing.
Boston came into the game with the top
road winning percentage in the NHL and
responded well in the rst period after allowing the rst goal on a nifty backhand feed
from behind the net by Donskoi to Karlsson.

Rockies down Oakland


Rockies 6, As 2

By Mike Cranston
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. Mark Reynolds hit a three-run


home run, Nolan Arenados two hits raised his spring average to .583 and the Colorado Rockies beat the Oakland
Athletics 6-2 on Tuesday.
Reynolds homered to left off wild Oakland starter Rich
Hill in the third inning. Arenado doubled and scored in a
two-run second, adding an RBI single off Fernando
Rodriguez in the fifth.
The 24-year-old Arenado, a first-time All-Star last year, is
14-for-24 and has a 1.494 OPS.
Hes something else, Rockies manager Walt Weiss said.
Hes been locked in since the first day of spring training.
Hill got through four innings despite walking six and
allowing five runs. The left-hander has walked 12 over 7 2/3
innings and three starts.
Rockies starter Jorge De La Rosa worked out of trouble in
three scoreless innings before allowing prospect Matt
Chapmans two-run homer on his final pitch of the fourth.
De La Rosa gave up five hits and walked two while getting
11 outs.
Hill, who signed as a free agent in the offseason, threw
only 29 of 67 pitches for strikes and saw his ERA rise to
15.26. The feel of getting the breaking ball out of my hand
has been an issue, Hill said.
De La Rosa wasnt as sharp as when he went three perfect
innings in his last start. He threw 47 of 63 pitches for
strikes and struck out two. My control wasnt there, but I
was able to get the outs when I needed them, De La Rosa
said.

What a Story
Trevor Story entered camp a long shot to be Colorados
opening-day shortstop. Its not so improbable anymore.
The 23-year-old started again and batted second with
Colorados mostly A lineup. He was 0-for-2 with a walk
and made a fine backhand on a tough hop to start a double
play. Story has four home runs and is hitting .318.
The Rockies need to replace Jose Reyes, whos on paid
leave while facing domestic violence charges.
I knew I finished (last year) in Triple-A and with Jose
being out someone was going to have to fill his spot for a
little bit, Story said. I just treated it as come in and have
fun and not worry about winning the job.

Web gem
Oaklands Sam Fuld made a spectacular diving grab of D.J.
LeMahieus liner to right in the second and threw to second
in time to get Ryan Raburn out.

That was weird

the field for the ninth, but eventually did and many fans

Wichita States guards lead
70-50 NCAA win over Vanderbilt
DAYTON, Ohio Wichita States guards
used their Final Four experience to pull out a
defense-dominated First Four game on
Tuesday night, leading the way to a 70-50
victory over Vanderbilt.
Fred VanVleeet the two-time Missouri
Valley player of the year scored 14
points, and Ron Baker also had 14 as
Wichita State (25-8) took control at the
start of the second half and held on. The seniors were part of Wichita States 2013 Final
Four team.
The Shockers play Arizona on Thursday in
Providence, Rhode Island.
Vanderbilt (19-14) couldnt take advantage of its pronounced size advantage on
offense and never led in the second half. Joe
Toye and Riley LaChance had 10 apiece.
The Shockers returned three starters from
the team that knocked off Indiana and
Kansas to reach the Sweet 16 last year, drawing a No. 10 ranking in the preseason poll.
A lot of early injuries including
VanVleets pulled hamstring forced the
Shockers to reinvent themselves.
They got yet another setback on Tuesday
when VanVleet left to get treated for a cut on
the right side of his forehead only a few
minutes into the game. He gave the

Shockers a pep talk during the next timeout


but stayed on the bench.
VanVleet got back into the game with
13:13 left in the half and hit a baseline
jumper for his rst points.

DAYTON, Ohio Florida Gulf Coast

It wasnt the same Dunk City gang that

Eagles controlled the boards and blew past

Marc-Eddy Norelia opened the game with a
dunk, two of his 20 points on the night to
lead the Eagles (21-13). FGCU never relinquished the lead, going on a 23-6 run in the
rst 10 minutes and opening a 40-19 lead at
the half.
Fairleigh Dickinson got some looks but
couldnt get much to fall, shooting just 33
percent from the eld while playing thoroughly lackluster defense. It was one of the
teams worst shooting performances of the
season.
Florida Gulf Coast relied on outmuscling
its opponents big men inside and controlling the boards, while making 60 percent of

the final two innings, striking out two and
allowing just one hit.
We have three games this week, so I have
to manage my bullpen, Rietmann-Grout
said. Were going to use both of them in
most games.
With the pitching and defense on top of
its game, the last piece of the puzzle was the
hitting and after a slow start, the Cougars
checked that box as well. The Cougars
scored seven runs on 12 hits. The offense
was led by Helen Sewart, who was 3 for 4
and drove in three runs. Sarabia drove in a
pair of runs on two hits and Riley Donovan
added an RBI as well.
Half Moon Bay wasted little time in taking a lead, scoring an unearned run in the
first inning, but Burlingame starting pitcher Sara Slavsky wiggled out of trouble and
limited the damage.

In fact, Slavsky kept the Cougars off balance for the first few innings, holding them
scoreless in the second and third innings.
But the Cougars adjusted. They added two
more runs in the third with Sarabia driving
in Olivia Hedding and Lily Moffitt, who had
singled earlier in the inning.
[Slavsky] was throwing a nice outside
pitch (early on), Rietmann-Grout said. She
went on to say once her team focused on not
chasing that outside pitch and concentrated
on pitches over he plate, the Cougars started to hit the ball hard. After three hits in the
first three innings, Half Moon Bay had nine
hits over the last four innings.
Leading 3-0 after four, the Cougars tacked
on a fourth run in the fifth when Riley
Donovan walked, moved to second on a
passed ball and scored on a Sewart single to
center.
Half Moon Bay iced the game with three
runs in the sixth. Sewart had the big hit,
driving in a pair of runs. Riley Donovan
also had an RBI in the inning.
It was a great way to start league,

The key (in the fourth quarter) was we had


to keep scoring, Rapp said.
Killingsworth then knocked down a baseline jumper and Testa had back-to-back baskets at the rim to push the Serra lead back to
10, 74-64, with 1:19 to play. The Titans
made a pair of 3s down the stretch to make it
interesting, but the Padres held on for their
24th win of the season.
Teams are going to make runs on you.
Nobody is going to fold, Rapp said. Give
Antelope credit. Theyre a good team.
Rapp believed the turning point came in
the first quarter as the Padres got off to a
quick start. He said he wanted to jump on an
Antelope team that had to spend a couple
hours on a bus and were playing in a foreign
gym.
We talked about throwing that first
punch, Rapp said. We wanted to jump
them. The pivotal point of the [first quarter] was kind of the difference.
Testa went coast to coast for a layup to
opening the scoring before following that
with a step-back 3 to put Serra up 5-1 less
than two minutes into the game.
Lee Jones then got his penetration game
working. He hit one of two free throws to
put Serra up 6-3 and following a pair of
Killingsworth freebies, Jones knocked
down an off-balance jumper. Killingsworth
followed with a slashing drive to bucket for
a 12-4 lead and Jones floated in a runner for
a 14-7 advantage. A Wilson follow and a
pair of Testa free throws gave Serra an 18-9
lead after the opening eight minutes.
Jones would go on to finish with 17
points.
He was big, especially in the beginning, Rapp said of Jones. He gave up confidence early.
In addition to Jones 17, Testa added a

second period and opened up its biggest lead
of the half, 26-11, with 5:15 left in the second quarter.
But the Padres would go more than two
minutes without a point and Antelope finally seemed to settle in a groove. The Titans
would score 10 unanswered points and
closed to 26-20 with 3:22 to play in the
opening half.
I think we were a little tight, Rapp said.
There is so much at stake.
But Serra ended the half on a 13-4 run to
take a 41-25 lead at halftime.
In the second half, Antelope outscored the
Padres 45-38, but the early deficit in the
first quarter and the 20-point margin in the
third quarter proved to be too much for the
Titans. Antelope was led by Kai Tease, who
finished with 18 points. Campbell had 17

will face No. 7 Berkeley at 4 p.m. Saturday
at Sleep Train Arena.
In Division IV, top-seeded Half Moon Bay
saw its season come to an end with a 47-39
loss to No. 4 West Campus. It was the first
home loss for the Cougars this season.
On the girls side, second-seeded Menlo
School advanced to the Nor Cal final for the
first time in 25 years, getting a game-winning 3-pointer from Hannah Paye to post a
47-46 win over No. 3 St. Marys-Albany.
Paye finished with a team-high 15 points.
Sam Erisman added 14 for the Knights.
Menlo will face No. 1 Cardinal Newman at
2 p.m. Saturday at American Canyon High
School.
Eastside College Prep also made it to the
Nor Cal title game, beating fourth-seed
Urban 62-44 in the Division V semifinals.
It was the end of the line for two other San
Mateo County teams, however. MenloAtherton, the No. 4 seed, saw its season end
with a 74-51 loss against top-seeded St.
Francis-Sacramento in Division I action,
while Sacred Heart Prep closed its season
with a 69-32 loss to top-seeded Cardinal

The deal announced by lead

August 2013 would instead pay up

failure to compensate present and
future CTE is inexcusable, lawyer
Steven Molo wrote Tuesday in a
letter to the federal appeals court
in Philadelphia that is hearing his
appeal.
The court heard arguments in
November on the fairness of the
settlement and was expected to
issue an opinion in the highstakes case soon. The NFL and lead
plaintiffs lawyers have said they
do not want to incentivize suicide
by offering future payments. CTE
cannot yet be diagnosed in the living.
The settlement would resolve
thousands of lawsuits and cover
more than 20,000 NFL retirees for
the next 65 years. The league estimates that 6,000 former players
nearly three in 10 could

next 65 years for those who are

Chris Nowinski, a former professional wrestler who runs the
Concussion Legacy Foundation,
noted that millions of children
still play tackle football despite
the suspected risks. The foundation seeks to study and prevent
head trauma in athletes.
If we actually believe that football is linked to CTE now, then
how is the NFL underwriting

Embracing a baked dinner as


your weeknight meal solution
By Melissa dArabian
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

People often ask me what my most-used


kitchen tool is (a high-speed blender). But if
you were to ask my mom that same question
30 years ago, I am sure she would have
answered her Pyrex baking dish.
When I was growing up, probably 75 percent of my meals were made in that thing.
Baked fish. Baked chicken. Baked pasta.
Baked rice casserole.
Baked dinner figured big in my childhood.
As I got older and moved into my own apartment, I wondered why my mom didnt
explore other techniques a little more. She
could have been searing that fish! And why
not saute that chicken for some delicious
crusty browning that results in so much flavor?
Now that Im a mom, I understand the
appeal of the litany of baked dishes my mom
had on her (admittedly limited) menu. Baked
stuff is easy! And as a mom of four busy
girls, I need something easy to make on a
Tuesday night, because between dance class
and lacrosse practice, I only have a short
window during which to make dinner happen. And since the healthiest dinners are the
ones we make ourselves, baked chicken is on
frequent repeat in my family meal repertoire.
But Ive learned a few lessons during the
past forty years, improving significantly
upon Moms version.
First, I use dark meat chicken with the
bone-in. This significantly widens the window of cooking time forgiveness, so if
someone is running late, dinner is still
juicy. Plus, dark meat chicken has more flavor, and the little extra fat means its more
filling. Second, I go heavy with the aromatics herbs, onion and garlic almost cant
be overused in baked chicken.
Upgrading from white wine to vermouth
also is a great flavor-booster. Lastly, I start

the chicken with just enough of a saute to get


a tasty, golden crust. But if you really cant
make that happen, dont be shy about just
loading up that glass baking dish and popping it into the oven.

BEST BAKED WEEKNIGHT CHICKEN


Start to finish: 1 hour 15 minutes
Servings: 4
8 bone-in chicken thighs, skin removed
Kosher salt and ground black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
2 teaspoons herbes de Provence (or dried
thyme and oregano mixed)
20 cloves garlic, peeled and lightly
smashed
3 shallots, thinly sliced
1/4 cup lemon juice
1/4 cup dry vermouth
Heat the oven to 350 F.
Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Use dark meat chicken with the bone-in for this recipe. It will significantly widen the window

heat 1 tablespoon of the oil. Working in
batches, briefly brown the chicken thighs
on both sides, 6 to 7 minutes, transferring
them to a plate as you work.
In a small bowl, toss together the herbes
de Provence, garlic, shallots and remaining
1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add a little salt
and pepper.
Once all the chicken has browned, return it
to the pot off the heat. Arrange the chicken
in a single, but tight layer. Spoon the shallot and garlic mixture around the chicken.
Pour the lemon juice and vermouth evenly
around the chicken. Cover the pot and bake
for 15 minutes. Uncover and bake for another 15 to 25 minutes, or until the chicken
reaches 175 F.

Mastering homemade teriyaki


sauce with five delicious recipes
I

f youre still using teriyaki sauce


from a bottle, youre doing it all
wrong. And youre depriving yourself
of the awesomeness that is homemade
teriyaki.
I didnt set out to master DIY teriyaki
sauce, but my 11-year-old suddenly started
craving the stuff. Not even sure where he
ate it that it was so
good to inspire almost
nightly requests for it.
But knowing how simple this potent sweetsavory sauce is to
make, I refused to buy
it. It took a few
attempts, but eventually I nailed an incredibly versatile and delicious version.
And by versatile, I
mean I slather it on
whatever protein I have on hand chicken, steak, pork or salmon. Ive included
the basic recipe for the sauce, as well as
instructions for using it on each of those
dishes. Then, just for fun, I added a slow
cooker version of the chicken. Because the
only thing better than a delicious chicken
teriyaki is a delicious chicken teriyaki that
practically cooks itself.

for another 3 to 5 minutes.
Meanwhile, pour the marinade into a

GARDEN
Continued from page 1
This years event features dozens of spectacularly unique and drought-friendly garden
displays, more than 125 speakers from
across the country offering up their expertise, hundreds of plants for sale and the first
hands-on Do It Yourself booth.
Other exciting urban homesteading activities include creating bee hotels, learning
how to propagate plants, experimenting
with fermented drinks and tips for gardening
in small spaces, said garden show producer
Sherry Larsen.
Textures, colors and scents are alive at the
various garden displays where West Coast
landscape designers are seeking to inspire
and motivate. With the drought still in the
forefront of everyones mind, Larsen said
the five-day event is an excellent opportunity for people to learn how to adapt in
style.
Last year everybody let everything die
and now theyve got to figure out what to do
with their lawns. So here youll find other
ways to enjoy your yard, Larsen said,
excited about the shows first DIY booth.
Its to do things instead of just seeing
things. Once you get that activity in some-

mount video cameras throughout their
property.
The initiative is a safeguard for
businesses keeping a significant
amount of cash on hand, as a deterrent
or an asset in identifying suspects
after a crime has been committed, said
Police Chief Jeff Azzopardi.
If a business has a good camera
system, it will either deter the criminals from victimizing the people
there, or aid us in apprehension of the
bad guys, said Azzopardi.
Since the policy was initially proposed in November, state Sen. Jerry
Hill, D-San Mateo, raised concerns
regarding who would have access to
the surveillance footage.
He met with city officials to ensure
merchants would not be required to
share with law enforcement video
from the cameras without police first
presenting a warrant.
As officials have shown a willingness to consider Hills perspective,
he said he is satisfied.
Im really pleased and grateful they
listened and may adopt an ordinance
that fits the parameters I was looking
for and safeguards the publics
rights, he said.
Hill has been an outspoken advocate for protecting against potential
cases of law enforcement overreach in

bodys hands, it takes away the mystique of


it and then they can go home and expand on
it.
Got a garden dilemma? There will be lowcost consultations with experts and plenty
of plants to take home.
Landscapers have spent days preparing to
wow this years judges with elaborate
designs that instill a sense of walking
through a Mediterranean estate, not being
inside an event center hall. Even if one cant
replicate these artful masterpieces at home,
Larsen noted theres elements that can go
into every yard.
Landscape architect Benjamin Goulart,
owner of the Menlo Park-based Waterfall
Guy Goulart Designs, agreed conservation
can be beautiful and suggests creative features such as dry creeks and waterfalls using
recycled water. Common garden themes now
include sticking with California native
species or Mediterranean plants that offer a
tropical flair while flourishing in the Bay
Areas climate, Goulart said.
Traditional grassscapes can often use 50
to 100 gallons of water per irrigation but if
you plant drought-tolerant plants, youre
probably looking at 50 gallons a week
tops, depending on what types of plants
you look at. So you can literally cut your
water usage down to a quarter, Goulart said,
noting dry creek beds require nothing and
recycled water features typically use just a

attempting to access sensitive surveillance data collected with technology such as automated license plate
readers and cellphone interception
mechanisms.
Azzopardi said he is sensitive to the
opinions of those who may feel the
surveillance program is intrusive, but
ultimately felt the protections which
could be provided outweighs those
concerns.
Thats a hot topic, and we are aware
of that, he said of the programs critics. At the same time, what this ordinance is hoping to do is strictly deter
these people from being victims
when they are at our establishments,
and identifying wrongdoers.
He noted the cameras, which would
frequently be posted in lobbies, near
cash registers and in parking lots,
could only capture footage of people
in public settings.
We dont feel like it is intrusive on
anybodys privacy he said. It is all
public areas. Should the policy be
approved, it would apply to businesses such as restaurants and convenience stores which stay open all
night, banks, hotels, motels, storage
facilities, coin dealers and other

nature.
Front yards are where people engage
with nature on a day-to-day basis. So the
two missions we have at the company are
telling these [scientific] stories and bringing it to people to restore habitat,
Krimmel said. Front yards are the next
frontier for conservation. Pristine areas are
less than 1 percent of our land use, cities are
more than half. So when people are spending money on landscaping, they can make
it beautiful with native plants, just as good
as non-native ones, and it can be more than

businesses which stand to be subject


to the ordinance already have cameras
in place, and would not be required to
add any further appliances.
Merchants would be obligated to
pay for the equipment and cover the
cost of installation and maintenance,
which he expected to cost between
$500 and $1,500.
Should the council approve the policy, businesses would have about one
year to comply.
Those who elect to not participate
may ultimately face a fine, said
Azzopardi, but police would likely
first pursue a variety of less invasive
means of attempting to getting merchants on board.
Azzopardi said officials have not
received feedback from residents and
business owners criticizing the program.
Police have offered merchants guidance on the best places to install the
cameras which would provide the
most useful footage, said Azzopardi.
He said law enforcement officials
are leaning on the bond they have
established with local businesses in
efficiently rolling out the program,
should it be approved.
The general feedback we have
received is positive, he said. People
are hoping that the city will work
with them, and thats why we are giving them one year. We hope we can do
some outreach with them and help
them through the process.
Also during the meeting, the council stands to approve installing video
surveillance equipment on
city property.
Should the city approve
the camera program on city
property, a sign would be
posted in areas such as
parks, parking lots and public facilities informing the
public they are under surveillance.
Officials also claim cameras should be mounted on
light poles on Centennial
Way between West Orange
and South Spruce avenues,
as a pilot program to cut
down on a rash of vandalism
and graffiti which has
plagued the area, according
to a city report.
The pilot program would
cost roughly $40,000, and
would stay in place for one
year.

Landscape architect Iftikhar Ahmed, a
principal at Treeline Designz, said conservationists can play with a variety of textures, colors and plants that bloom year
round. Taking inspiration from Spanish and
Italian designs, Ahmeds Urban Oasis is a
functional eco-friendly work of art.
With offices from San Francisco to
Vancouver, Ahmed said using water wisely is
a top priority for many clients and a great
habitat to showcase.
Theyre more [focused] on drought tolerance, which is one of our specialties, to
work on sustainable, energy-efficient and
drought-tolerant gardens. Because of the
drought, even if we have a couple months
rain, its not enough to finish the drought,
Ahmed said. We need to concentrate on the
drought and instead of painting on lawns
and pavers, we can play around with
drought-tolerant species that dont need a
lot of physical work.

NOTICE OF PETITION TO
ADMINISTER ESTATE OF
Barbara Kelly Hoxter
Case Number: 126690
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or estate, or both, of Barbara Kelly Hoxter,
Barbara Kelly, Barbara Hoxter. A Petition
for Probate has been filed by Daniel G.
Hoxter, Jr. in the Superior Court of California, County of San Mateo. The Petition for Probate requests that Daniel G.
Hoxter, Jr. be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of
the decedent. The petition requests the
decedent swill and codicils, if any, be
admitted to probate. The will and any codicils are available for examiniation in the
file kept by the court. The petition requests authority to administer the estate
under the Independent Administration of
Estates Act. (This authority will allow the
personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval.
Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have
waived notice or consented to the proposed action.) The independent administration authority will be granted unless an
interested person files an objection to the
petition and shows good cause why the
court should not grant the authority.
A hearing on the petition will be held in
this court as follows: MAR 28, 2016 at
9:00 a.m., Department 28, Superior
Court of California, County of San Mateo,
400 County Center, Redwood City, CA
94063.
If you object to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing
and state your objections or file written
objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person
or by your attorney.
If you are a creditor or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your
claim with the court and mail a copy to
the personal representative appointed by
the court within the later of either (1) four
months from the date of first issuance of
letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the
