Preschool shortage spurs outreach campaign

Advocates seek policy amendments throughout county to address lack of early education centers
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
To address the dearth of early
child care and preschool facilities
in San Mateo County, a band of
advocates are calling for policy
amendments easing development
of the centers they say are badly
needed.
Nearly 11,000 more preschool
and early education spaces are
needed across the county to
accommodate demand, according
to a recent study done in coordina-
tion with the county Office of
Education, and the gap is expected
to grow by about 3, 000 more
spaces over the next decade.
Educators and parents are work-
ing together to close the delta by
encouraging city and county offi-
cials to establish local policies
and loosen regulations paving the
way for developing the facilities
more easily.
Jean-Marie Houston, director of
Early Learning Services for the
Office of Education, said policies
encouraging developers to con-
sider preserving space for
preschools in large projects
would be a tremendous step to
accomplishing that goal.
This is a critical piece of devel-
opment that has to be thought
about as we prepare years in
advance for new development,
she said.
Sarah Kinahan, a San Carlos
parent who has worked alongside
Houston, expressed a similar sen-
timent.
Its getting the entities that
control the land to come to the
table and work on solutions with
us, she said, pointing not only to
developers but also major employ-
ers driving the economic boom
along the Peninsula.
The local economys health is a
primary contributor to the lack of
available preschool spaces, as

Trumps travel ban predicted to return for school tax measure

By Eric Tucker
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON Rebuffed in its bid for a quick
reversal, the White House said Sunday it expected the
courts to reafrm President Donald Trumps executive
power and reinstate a ban on refugees and travelers
from seven predominantly Muslim countries from
entering the United States.
The case promised to extend into Monday at least,
when fresh legal lings were due, and observers had
no doubt the Supreme Court ultimately will have a
say.
The San Francisco-based 9th U.S. Circuit Court of
Appeals, in a brief order overnight, denied the
administrations request to set
aside a Seattle judges ruling that
put a temporary hold on the ban
nationwide.
The lawsuit by Washington state
and Minnesota said Trumps order
harmed residents and effectively
mandated discrimination. Their
lawyers had until 2:59 a.m. EST
Donald Trump Monday to submit briefs oppos-
ing the governments request. The
Justice Department then had a 6 p.m. EST deadline to
respond.

Iranian Americans confused, afraid of travel ban
By Amy Taxin
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
IRVINE Iranian-American supermarket
supervisor Alan Tahmasebi voted for Donald
Trump last year, hoping a businessman
would be more trustworthy than a politi-
cian.
The 35-year-old now sorely regrets it,
seeing the havoc wreaked upon his fellow
countrymen and his family since the
new president issued a temporary travel ban
on refugees and citizens from seven Muslim-
majority countries, including his former
home.
Tahmasebi and his wife have spent more
than $7,000 on green card applications for
their parents. Now, their parents are in
limbo overseas as the Irvine couple awaits
the birth of their second child.
It was a land of opportunity but now, I
dont think so, he said. They wish to come
here and visit my new baby. They never
worked with the army, with the government
(in Iran) I have no idea what is going on.
The ban has rattled Americans with ties to
the listed countries, and its effects are per-
haps most widespread among the countrys
thriving Iranian American community. The
U.S. has nearly 370,000 Iranian immi-
grants, according to U.S. Census Bureau
estimates, far more than the other countries
targeted by the order.
While Tehran and Washington have a
lengthy history of friction, personal ties
between residents of the two countries have
held strong. Many Iranian Americans travel
back to visit family or bring aging parents
to join them in the U.S.
Since Trump imposed the travel ban, ten-
sion between the two governments has con-
tinued to rise.
On Friday, Iran barred U.S. wrestlers from
an important international tournament. The
same day, the Trump administration imposed
sanctions on 13 people and a dozen compa-

missile test, increasing pressure on Tehran
without directly undercutting a nuclear deal
with the country.
Later Friday, a federal judge temporarily
blocked the travel ban following a lawsuit
by Washington state and Minnesota that
said Trumps order is causing signicant
harm to residents and effectively mandates
discrimination.
A federal appeals court on Sunday denied a
Justice Department request for an immediate
reinstatement of the ban, meaning the legal
ght will continue for days at least.
Iranian Americans said they are perplexed
as to why Iran is even on Trumps list, not-
ing the country is not mired in war like Syria
and Yemen. In addition, many Iranians came
to the United States after the 1979 Islamic
Revolution in search of religious and per-
sonal freedom and continue to cherish those
ideals.
Theres two things in my country one
is people, one is government, Tahmasebi
said. This new law is not for the govern-
ment. Its for the people, who like the
United States.

Efforts underway to shift public workers from pensions
By David Eggert
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LANSING, Mich. Struggling under the
weight of pension and health care obliga-
tions, Michigan lawmakers appear ready to
take another whack at public employee ben-
efits a move that reflects renewed deter-
mination to shift workers to 401(k)-style
retirement systems, even if it happens in
baby steps.
Other states have made more modest
changes, but the latest push shows that
conservatives want to approve big
reforms 20 years after Michigan became
the first state to close pensions to future
state workers. Republican Gov. Rick
Snyder is pressing to address $14 billion
in unfunded liabilities, mostly from
retiree medical costs, spread across more
than 330 communities.
As a state, we cannot get ahead if too
many of our local communities have prob-
lems, he said.
The proposals could serve as a national
blueprint, and they will provoke a pitched
battle with public unions that are desperate
to preserve traditional benefits.

Trump throws Washington into state of anxious uncertainty
By Julie Pace
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON Two weeks into his presidency, Donald
Trump has thrown Washington into a state of anxious uncer-
tainty.
Policy pronouncements sprout up from the White House in
rapid succession.
Some have far-reaching implications, most notably
Trumps temporary refugee and immigration ban, but others
disappear without explanation, including planned executive
actions on cybersecurity and the presidents demand for an
investigation into unsubstantiated voter fraud.
The days agenda can quickly be overtaken by presidential
tweets, which often start ashing on smartphones just as the
nations capital is waking up.
The last two weeks feel like six months, said Rep.
Thomas Massie, R-Ky.
Indeed, the effect on Washington as well as the network
of lobbyists, businesses and other interest groups that orbit
the political power centers has been dizzying, beyond the
normal commotion that typically accompanies a White
House transition. One ofcial compared it to walking through
a sandstorm, grasping for a moment of clarity.

hazard style is as much a part of his political brand as his sig-
nature promise to build a border wall. In business and as a can-
didate, he used controlled chaos to keep his rivals off balance
and appears to be taking a similar approach to governing.
At times, Trumps style has tripped up his own White
House.
After an early morning tweet calling for an investigation
into voter fraud, Trumps advisers announced that the presi-
dent planned to sign an order to begin an inquiry. An Oval
Ofce event was scheduled and members of the media were
assembled. But the signing was abruptly scrapped and the
investigation appears to have been shelved.
The presidents advisers have taken some steps in recent
days to try to alleviate some of the anxiety gripping
Washington, including coordinating more closely with
Republican lawmakers ahead of the signing of executive
orders and giving more deference to the agencies putting in
place the refugee ban.
But uncertainty still remains the capitals prevailing mood.
Just on Saturday, the departments of State and Homeland
Security said they were stopping enforcement of the travel
ban after a federal judge put the order on hold. The White
House promised a prompt legal appeal.
Republicans who back Trumps calls for overhauling
President Barack Obamas health care law are eager for guid-
well-positioned to retain their grip on power in the 2018
elections.
While Republicans hold only a slim majority in the U.S.
Senate, Democrats occupy most of the seats up for election
in two years. That means they must play defense against
Republicans, especially in 10 states that Trump won.
In the U.S. House, Republicans will be aided by favorable
district boundaries that were drawn to maintain GOP politi-
cal dominance. In some cases, the congressional districts
were gerrymandered to pack high numbers of Democratic
voters into just a few districts as a way to create a greater
number of Republican-leaning seats.
Democrats are extremely fired up right now, said Sam
Wang, a Princeton University neuroscientist and statisti-
cian who has developed a statistical model for analyzing
partisan gerrymandering.
But for Democrats to win back Congress, Wang said it
would take an extreme event. The question is, are we see-
ing something thats headed towards that?
The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee is
targeting 59 Republican-held House seats in 24 states as it
builds toward the next election. Those include 23 districts
where Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton
defeated Trump and various others that Republicans took
away from Democrats in recent years.
It also is beginning to place full-time paid organizers in
20 of those districts, something the committee says it has
never done at this early stage.
The Democratic committee is touting a surge of 675,000
new supporters in January, many of whom joined the cause
amid nationwide protests against Trumps policies.
Whether that energy can be sustained through 2018 remains
to be seen.
National Republican Congressional Committee
spokesman Jesse Hunt calls the Democratic optimism a
pipe dream. Hunt notes that Democrats also held high
hopes for 2016, but unseated just four of the 15 freshmen
GOP representatives they targeted.
Democrats would appear to have history on their side.

Marilyn Tavenner, head of Americas Health Insurance Plans
told a Senate committee this past week.
Some businesses are on edge, too. Amid erce customer
opposition to Trumps immigration order, Uber CEO Travis
Kalanick dropped out of a White House business council.
Other executives fear theirs could be the next company to
wind up in Trumps crosshairs for a high-cost government
contract or overseas factory move.
Theres dread in corporate America to wake up every morn-
ing and see what the latest tweet is, said Tony Podesta, a
prominent Washington lobbyist.

was guiding the country through the Great Depression, and
2002, when President George W. Bush was leading the
response to the 2001 terrorist attacks.
In the 2010 election during the middle of President
Barack Obamas first term, Republicans flipped more than
five dozen seats to take control of the U.S. House away from
Democrats. Republicans also won control of a majority of
state legislative chambers and governors offices that year.
They then used that statehouse power to help cement their
control in Washington by redrawing congressional dis-
tricts following the 2010 Census.
In 2012, the first election under those new maps,
Republicans won a 33-seat majority in the U.S. House even
though Democratic candidates across the country received
1.4 million more votes than their Republican opponents.
Although court rulings have since forced the redrawing of
some districts, many of those boundaries remain in place
for the 2018 elections.
Wang estimates Democratic congressional candidates
would need to win the 2018 nationwide vote by 7 to 12 per-
centage points to capture enough seats to win control of the
House. The last time Democrats enjoyed such a spread was
2008, he said.

Trumps go-it-alone strategy carries its own risks
By Ken Thomas
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON Like his predecessor,
President Donald Trump seized on a go-it-
alone strategy for fast-tracking his agenda.
It took him two weeks to run into the
nations system of checks and balances.
The legal battle over his executive order
on immigration and refugees is a surpris-
ingly early demonstration of a lesson all
presidents learn eventually. Governing by
executive action may appear easier and
faster, but it carries its own legal and polit-
ical risks.
President Barack Obama was confronted
with that reality late in his tenure when,
thwarted by the GOP-controlled House, he
used what he called a pen and phone strat-
egy to advance his agenda. He ultimately
found one of his most sweeping actions, the
expansion of a program deferring deporta-
tion for some immigrants, blocked by the
courts, while Republicans blasted him for
what they said was an abuse of power.
Republicans have been notably quiet as
Trump has taken a similar approach, partic-
ularly taking advantage of the precedent
giving the president broad leeway when it
comes to immigration.

ting travelers from seven predominantly
Muslim countries showed the limits of the
presidents powers and the role of checks
and balances among the three branches of
government. The administration appealed
the judges order, but the higher court
denied its request for an immediate stay that
would have enabled Trump to reinstate the
ban.
The State Department cancelled visas for
about 60, 000 people from the affected
Western world.
We are facing an unprecedented level of
uncertainty today, said John Blaxland, a
former Australian intelligence official and
professor at Australian National
University. He said there is mutual benefit
to these broad, deep intelligence shar-
ing relationships, but added: It is hard to
calculate just how much damage the new
presidents approach may have.
It will be felt, Blaxland predicted,
and it wont be good.
Russia is a main concern.
If Trump moves forward with efforts to
improve U.S.-Russian relations, European
allies in particular will probably question

Trumps opening weeks have shown hes
likely to rely on the Republicans who hold
a majority in Congress to pass top agenda
items like overhauling the Obamacare
law, changing the tax code and repairing
aging roads and bridges.
The president has also signed a blitz of
actions on border security, health care and
nancial regulation, showing few signs of
slowing down.
On Friday, Trumps administration
imposed sanctions on companies and indi-
viduals in response to Irans recent ballis-
tic missile test after months of bitter
criticism of Obamas landmark nuclear deal
with Tehran.
Still, his actions stand out for their
sweep and haste. On some issues, Trump
didnt just leapfrog Congress, where his
own party is in control, he cut Republicans
out of the consultations and rollout of his
plans.
I think that Trump has been unusually
aggressive in the scope of what he is trying
to do and also I think remarkably casual in

by questioning the value of U.S. military

their way to stress the durability of such

Meeting the need for affordable housing
By Evelyn Stivers
R

union called Unite Here, I
interviewed workers at a busi-
ness near the San Francisco
International Airport. Unfortunately,
few of these workers live in San
Mateo County most of the employ-
ees commute in from Tracy,
Richmond, Antioch and other far-
flung communities. One woman had
wrecked her car because she fell asleep
on the long drive home after getting
off work at 2 a.m. Without a function-
ing vehicle, she had to take public
transit to work. But BART doesnt run
at 2 a.m., so she slept at the BART
station until she could get her car
fixed. Now she skips her lunch break
so she can get off work a little earlier
and hopefully stay awake and alive on
her journey home.
Most jobs adjacent to the airport
are good ones. They pay relatively
well, dont require a college degree
and offer opportunities for advance-
ment. Theyll always be located in
San Mateo County, because SFO is
here. Unfortunately, the wages are
nowhere near high enough for work-
ers to live nearby.
Throughout the Bay Area, people
are struggling to afford a home but
the situation is particularly acute here

years, our county created 23 jobs for

be built for every job. And with more

vative housing programs. Our Board
of Supervisors will start discussions
on how much funding will go to hous-
ing efforts Tuesday, Feb. 14.
Additionally, many of our commu-
nities are adopting impact fees on
new development as an additional way
to fill the funding gap for affordable
housing.
A housing impact fee is a per
square-foot fee levied on market-rate
housing and commercial develop-
ment to generate funds used to build
affordable homes. The fees are based
on the idea that new development
creates a need for goods and services
typically provided by employees
paid less than the median income,
under their rights afforded to them by
the first amendment. Speech, no matter
how offensive to the listener, was pro-
tected and lawful.
Recently, a right wing provocateur
came to the iconic campus of Berkeley
and was violently shut down by protest-
ers and anarchists, preventing him from
speaking. The irony was too rich when
individuals, wearing black clothing and
fully masked, descended on a public uni-
versity famous for the birth of the free
speech movement, intent on stopping a
guest speaker from exercising his con-
stitutional right of free speech.
Today, speech is free in California as

such as hair dressers, coffee baristas,
gardeners, health care workers and
preschool teachers. The fee amount
is set based on an economic study
that takes into account the impact
that new development has on afford-
able housing demand and the feasi-
bility of the fee.
Our elected officials are leading the
way on adopting these innovative
policies. Redwood City adopted a new
set of fees in December 2015 and
Belmont, Colma, East Palo Alto,
Foster City, Palo Alto, San Bruno,
San Carlos, San Mateo and the county
have all either adopted new ordi-
nances or increased current fees in the
year and a half since.
Unfortunately, some of the commu-
nities that could generate the most
funding have still not adopted. South
San Francisco, Brisbane, Menlo Park
and Millbrae all have completed stud-
ies but have not moved forward with
ordinances.
Collectively, it is estimated that the
impact fees could generate $100 mil-
lion for affordable housing. Over
time, this funding will create a variety
of housing opportunities that will
make it easier for working people to
live and work in the same county.
We care deeply about our working
families, friends and neighbors being
priced out of our housing market and
weve got a comprehensive plan to
meet the need. It is in our own
enlightened self-interest to do so. To

is effectively shutting it down. Whether
itbe the feeble response from Califor-
nias police departments or the
indifference of local and state officials,
there is not much appetite for protect-

approve of. I dont think this is what

Meet Emily Beach
E
mily Beach was elected to the Burlingame City
Council in 2015. Before we met for the first time,
I looked her up online and was blown away by her
resume. She served as an Army captain and served in South
Korea, Saudi Arabia and Texas. How did this young
woman, the mother of two young children, end up as a city
councilmember? What was she doing in the Army and what
led her into military service?
Beach grew up in a small town, Longmeadow, in west-
ern Massachusetts (so no Boston accent). One of the
ways for her to pay for college was to enroll in ROTC.
She did at the University of Notre Dame. The commitment
was four years while in college and four years afterward.
She was a second lieutenant when she graduated in 1996
and her first overseas assignment was in South Korea
where she served in air defense. Next was a stint in Saudi
Arabia where even though she was in charge of a division
she was not allowed to drive and as a passenger in a car
had to sit in the back and wear a burka. She met her hus-
band in the military and they were married in 2000. He
was a member of the famous 101st airborne division. I
wondered who outranked who but they were both captains
by the time they wed.
After military life, her
husband attended law
school at UC Hastings
which brought them to the
Bay Area. Beach found a
job in technical sales in
Silicon Valley. They start-
ed a family and moved to
Burlingame in 2008. At
that time, she decided to
devote herself to bringing
up her young children. She
threw herself into volun-
teering and wound up as
chair of the Burlingame
Community for Education
Foundation. It was almost
a full-time job for four
years and it was something about which she was passion-
ate. When an opening occurred on the council, she decid-
ed to go for it.
When you meet Emily Beach in person, you realize how
fortunate Burlingame is to have her talent, energy and
enthusiasm. Its something councilmembers throughout
the county recognized when they recently elected her to
the San Mateo County Transportation Authority.
***
While she has never engaged in any political march or
rally before, Beach traveled to Washington, D.C., to par-
ticipate in the womens march, the day after inauguration.
She went by herself hoping to connect with friends but
there was no cellphone service because thousands of peo-
ple were trying to do the same thing. She attended an
early morning rally U.S. Rep. Jackie Speier, D-San
Mateo, held near her Rayburn office. She was in a good
position to hear the speakers but it was impossible to
move because of the throngs of people. Once you found
your spot, that was it.
Beach was impressed with the diversity of the crowd,
the number of senior citizens and young children, the
number of different states represented on the handmade
signs. The joy and camaraderie people felt even though
they didnt know each other. Just as military service over-
seas had made her so proud to be an American and treasure
what we have in this country, so participation in the
womens march made her proud to be American, too.
***
Other thoughts on the womens march: From a grand-
mother: many thousands packed around San Francisco
Civic Center which was bathed in pink, just as the
cheering wave was going through the crowd. The
march was so calm with the forceful impact of solidarity
and the dampening of despair. As I marched down Market
with three generations in tow, there was a family of
Middle Eastern descent in front with their son and
daughter. The fathers sign read Men of quality support
womens equality. Many images like this are etched in
my mind and did uplift my political spirits. We were all
together and we were all diverse. Impactful and grati-
fying ... with the realization that we have been an
important part of history made.
From a teacher who rode San Jose light rail from
Mountain View, and it was standing-room only Saturday
morning at 8:30! With each stop more and more people
packed the train as they were greeted with cheers. What
impressed me the most was the diversity of the crowd
ethnic diversity, babies/toddlers/teenagers/adults,
women/men/girls/boys ... a real representation of the Bay
Area. And even though there were diverse messages (pro
immigration, pro ACA, pro reproductive rights, etc.),
there was a palpable sense of unity. The united message
wasnt about what were against, but what we stand for.

Utilities seek sun as Trump sides with coal, fossil fuels
By Emery P. Dalesio
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
RALEIGH, N.C. The plunging cost of solar power is
leading U.S. electric companies to capture more of the sun
just when President Donald Trump is moving to boost coal
and other fossil fuels.
Solar power represents just about 1 percent of the elec-
tricity U.S. utilities generate today, but that could grow
substantially as major electric utilities move into smaller-
scale solar farming, a niche developed by local coopera-
tives and non-prots.
Its both an opportunity and a defensive maneuver:
Sunshine-capturing technology has become so cheap, so
quickly, that utilities are moving to preserve their core
business against competition from household solar panels.
Solar growth is so extensive and has so much momen-
tum behind it that were at the point where you cant put the
genie back in the bottle, said Jeffrey R.S. Brownson, a
Pennsylvania State University professor who studies solar
adoption. You either learn how to work with this new
medium, solar energy, or youre going to face increasing
conicts.
The transition away from coal-burning power plants now
seems unstoppable, even if Trump scraps rules requiring
utilities to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The average
lifetime cost for utility-scale wind and solar generation in
the U.S. is now cheaper than coal or nuclear and compara-
ble to natural gas, according to nancial advisory rm
Lazard, which compared the fuel costs without their federal
tax subsidies.
Wind and solar were expected to account for about two-
thirds of the new electricity generation capacity added to
the nations power grid in 2016, outpacing fossil fuel
expansion for a third straight year, according to the U.S.
Energy Department.
Tax season is here with headaches for small businesses
By Joyce M. Rosenberg
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK With the start of tax season, stress lev-
els are rising at many small businesses.
Even owners who are organized, keep good books and
stay in touch with their accountants can find compiling
returns to be a painful process. One reason is that tax
laws change often, says Rosamaria Bravo, a certified
public accountant with the firm MBAF in Miami. One of
this years big differences: Partnership returns must be
filed by March 15, a month earlier than in the past. And
companies known as C corporations have a filing dead-
line of mid-April, after having a March due date in past
years.
Its very hard to stay on top of all the information,
Bravo says. The average business owner is more worried
about their day-to-day operations.
Heres a look at some lessons small business owners
learned:
USING SOFTWARE WISELY
When Christina Divigard started an advertising
BUSINESS

A workerr carries a solar panel during an installation at a
home in San Diego.
And even though big investor-owned utilities operate as
legal monopolies in many states, the bill-lowering appeal
of rooftop solar for many homeowners could eventually
threaten their ability to nance and manage the power
grids.
These trends help explain why utilities are increasingly
adopting a model called community solar, or shared
solar, which involves customers agreeing to buy or lease
solar panels on large arrays built for the utility, or to buy
the power they produce. That electricity is then credited off
utility bills under contracts that can lock in power prices
agency, she bought accounting software and began keep-
ing the companys books herself. When tax season
arrived, she discovered that out of inexperience, shed
incorrectly entered some information and misclassified
some types of deductions. It took two weeks to get her
books in order.
If I had to do it all over again, I would have put more
effort and budget behind setting up systems properly
from the get-go, says Divigard, managing director of
New York-based Valvespring.
Divigard subsequently hired a bookkeeper to help set
up accounts and understand how to input income and
expenses. She also learned more about the need to put
expenses into different accounting categories for
example, meals during a business trip are different from
meals to entertain customers under the tax law.
Having a system that is correctly set up has reduced the
chance of errors, and even if Divigard has to do repair
work, now it takes me a day rather than two weeks.
KEEPING UP
WITH THE CHANGES
Complying with tax law revisions can be hard even
with a bookkeeper and accountant, Barbara Karpf has
learned. As of this year, businesses must file W-2 forms
and 1099 forms with the IRS by Jan. 31. While compa-
nies were previously required to give those forms to
workers by the end of January, they didnt have to get
them to the government until the end of February. The
government can charge a penalty if it gets the forms late.
That created extra pressure for Karpf. Her home decor
Lending rules targeted under Dodd-Frank attack
By Ken Sweet
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK President Donald Trump has wasted lit-
tle time in beginning a push to reverse the stricter bank-
ing regulations enacted after the 2008 financial crisis.
Trump has branded the Dodd-Frank Act a disaster a
regulatory overreach that slowed the economy and stifled
lending to consumers and businesses.
Dodd-Frank did impose tighter curbs on U.S. banks and
how they operate. And the restrictions fell particularly
hard on community banks. Yet its also true that by just
much every measure, the U.S. economy is healthier now:
The job market is solid. The housing market has largely
rebounded. And the banking system, which nearly col-
lapsed at the height of the crisis, is safer and sturdier.
On the move
The Board of Directors of Pro v i dent Credi t Uni o n
recently announced Pres i dent and CEO Way ne Bunker

utive vice president of Provident Credit Union, will be his

for 10 years or more.
Utility-run shared solar also can address competition
from independent solar companies that install and operate
rooftop solar panels, harvesting and providing the energy
at a fixed cost to the individual consumer or some other
buyer.
These projects also could appeal to the roughly half of
American households that cant install solar panels
because they dont own their homes, lack the good credit
needed to finance an installation, or lack sufficient roof
space where the sun shines consistently, the Energy
Departments National Renewable Energy Laboratory
reported.
Like the much larger solar operations covering large
rural tracts with dark photovoltaic panels slanted toward
the sky, electricity from the utilities smaller-scale arrays
feed into the local power grid, not directly to individual
homes or businesses
Membership-based electric cooperatives, municipal
utilities and even non-profit groups run most of these
solar gardens around the country, but utilities are mov-
ing in. In California, Colorado, Massachusetts and
Minnesota, theyve been pushed into the space by state
law.
Investor-owned utilities now back about 20 percent of
the countrys community solar programs across 32 states,
and represent about 70 percent of the potential output,
said Dan Chwastyk of the Smart Electric Power Alliance, a
group providing utilities information about shifting into
clean-energy technologies.
Charlotte-based Duke Energy Corp., the largest electric-
ity company in the United States, this year plans to
launch a community solar program in South Carolina and
seek regulatory permission to do the same in North
Carolina, Florida, Kentucky, Ohio and Indiana, utility
vice president Melisa Johns said.
company, DecoratorsBest, moved offices in New York
right after Black Friday and Cyber Monday, two of its
busiest sales days. After she hired movers and a painter
for the new space, she realized she needed to get informa-
tion like Social Security numbers and addresses from
eight people. Well into January she was still getting all
the information together so 1099 forms for freelancers
and other contract workers could get to the government,
as well as the workers, on time.
Its more work in a shorter period of time, Karpf
says.
KEEPING
TRACK OF EXPENSES
When an owner is running a business day by day and
also trying to do long-term strategic planning, details
like tax-deductible expenses can get lost in the shuffle,
creating a headache later. Deborah Sweeney has learned
to look at her books monthly to be sure expenses like
charitable donations and the costs of employee meetings
are entered properly.
That way, we dont have to scramble at the end of the
year, says Sweeney, owner of MyCorporation. com, a
Calabasas, California-based company that helps busi-
nesses incorporate online.
Sweeney recalls errors of past years, such as not taking
a deduction for a service contract on a printer. She has
also learned to take her questions to her accountant to be
sure shes not missing some of the finer points of rules
about deductions. For example: How do we categorize
new furniture do we write it off or depreciate it?
The Dodd-Frank Act took effect in 2010, a response to
reckless risk-taking by banks that inflated a housing
bubble, kindled the financial crisis and eventually
required a $700 billion taxpayer bailout. The law was
designed, most broadly, to guard against another catas-
trophe.
But Republicans in Congress, emboldened Wall Street
lobbyists and the Trump White House argue that the law
went too far and want to roll back many of the regula-
tions. Just as vociferously, defenders of Dodd-Frank say
it remains a critically important bulwark against exces-
sive financial risk-taking and should stay intact.
The Dodd-Frank Act is a disastrous policy thats hin-
dering our markets, reducing the availability of credit and
crippling our economys ability to grow and create jobs,
Sean Spicer, Trumps press secretary, said Friday.
Bunker served as chair of the Board of Directors of the
Credit Union Executives Society, as a director of FSCC
(Shared Branch Network) and as a director of the San Mateo
County Chamber of Commerce. In 2016, he was the recipi-
ent of the David D. Bohannon Award of Excellence from the
San Mateo County Economic Development Association for
outstanding contributions to the Bay Area community.

A comeback for the ages

Patriots overcome 25-point deficit to win Super Bowl LI in overtime
By Barry Wilner
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
HOUSTON They looked old
and outmanned. Their star quarter-
back was frazzled, their stingy
defense was a sieve.
So what? Tom Brady and the New
England Patriots shrugged and did
what they always seem to do: Win
the Super Bowl.
Brady led one of the greatest
comebacks in sports history high-
lighted by a
Julian Edelman
catch that was
almost beyond
belief. The
Patriots pulled
themselves out
of a 25-point
hole against the
Julian Edelman Atlanta Falcons
to a 34-28 win
for New Englands fifth NFL cham-
pionship. It was the first Super
Bowl decided in overtime.
There were a lot of plays that
coach talks about, you never know
which one is going to be the Super
Bowl winner, said Brady, who
earned a record fourth MVP award
and a fifth Super Bowl ring, the
most for a quarterback. There
were probably 30 of those plays
tonight and (if) any one of those
were different, the outcome could
have been different.
But down 28-3 in the third quar-
ter, Tom?
Its hard to imagine us win-
ning, the 39-year-old Brady said.
It took a lot of great plays and
Patriots 34, Falcons 28
thats why you play to the end.
The Patriots scored 19 points in
the final quarter, including a pair
of 2-point conversions, then
marched relentlessly to James
Whites 2-yard touchdown run in
overtime after winning the coin
toss. White scored three
touchdowns and a 2-pointer.
We knew we had a shot
the whole game, White
said. It was an amazing
comeback by
our team. Its
surreal right
now. You
couldnt write
this script.
Brady guided
the Patriots
( 1 7 - 2 )
through a
t i r i n g
At l an t a
defense for
fourth-quarter touchdowns on a 6-
yard pass to Danny Amendola and
a 1-yard run by White, which came
with 57 seconds remaining in reg-
ulation. White ran for the first 2-
pointer and Amendola did the deed
with a reception on the second.
Brady finished 43 for 62, the
most attempts in Super Bowl his-
tory, for 466 yards, also a record,
and two touchdowns.
Before the stunning rally
New England already held the
biggest comeback in the final
period when it turned around a 10-
point deficit to beat Seattle two
years ago the Falcons (13-6)
appeared poised to take their first
NFL championship in 51 seasons.
Having never been in such a pres-
surized environment, their previ-
ously staunch pass rush disap-
peared, they stumbled on
offense and Brady tore
them apart.
Theres nothing you
can really say, Ryan said.
Thats a tough loss, obvi-
ously very dis-
ap p o i n t i n g ,
very close to
getting done
what we wanted to
get done.
It wasnt diffi-
cult for Patriots
owner Robert
Kraft as he
accepted the
Lo mb ardi
Trophy from
Commissioner Roger Goodell,
who naturally drew a flood of boos
from New England fans on hand.
Yes, Deflategate might be far
behind Kraft and Brady, but its
not forgotten.
Two years ago, we won our
fourth Super Bowl down in
Arizona and I told our fans that was
the sweetest one of all, owner
Robert Kraft said. But a lot has
transpired over the last two years
and I dont think that needs any
explanation. ADREES LATIF/REUTERS

I want to say to our fans, our
brilliant coaching staff, our amaz-
ing players who were so spectacu-
lar, this is unequivocally the sweet-
est.
Brady and coach Bill Belichick
won their 25th postseason game,
by far a record. The Falcons added to
Atlantas long history of pro sports
frustration.
Belichick became the first coach
with five Super Bowl crowns.
The Patriots won the coin toss for
overtime, and by then it was no
contest. Brady completed six pass-
es against an overmatched Falcons
secondary. A pass interference call
took the ball to the 2, and White
scooted to his right and barely over
the goal line.
His teammates streamed off the
sideline to engulf White as confetti
streamed down from the NRG
Stadium rafters.
The comeback included dozens of
huge plays, including Ryans fum-
ble on a sack, Edelmans catch off
of a defenders shoe and Bradys
passing.
White had 14 receptions for 110
The Trojans gave Falk a 3-2 lead
in the bottom of the fifth on an
RBI single by sophomore Aaron

three runs in the top of the sixth to
knock Falk out of the game.
Albaum currently paces Skyline

sive struggle, the Falcons went
sack-happy, getting two on the
Patriots second drive in what would
be a scoreless opening quarter.

Iran rescinds ban Cameroon denies Egypt 8th African Cup
on U.S. wrestling
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
TEHRAN, Iran Iran has lifted a ban on
U.S. wrestlers, allowing them to take part in
the Freestyle World Cup later this month in
the Iranian city of Kermanshah, Iranian
media reported on Sunday.
The Sunday report by state TV quotes
Foreign Ministry spokesman Bahram
Ghasemi as saying that the ban was lifted
after the discriminative restrictions on
Iranian nationals travelling to the U.S. was
suspended by a U.S. federal judge.
The wrestlers were originally banned
Friday from the Feb. 16-17 competition
after President Donald Trump temporarily
suspended travel from seven Muslim-major-
ity countries, including Iran. The Trump
administration is now appealing to rein-
state the travel ban. On Sunday a judge in
San Francisco rejected the governments
request for an immediate reinstatement.
Formal arguments in the case begin on
Monday.
Regardless of tensions between their gov-
ernments, American and Iranian wrestlers
have frequently hosted each other in compe-
titions and have a working relationship that
goes back decades.

LIBREVILLE, Gabon Cameroon rose
again after years of underachievement to win
the African Cup of Nations title on Sunday
with a fabulous goal in the 89th minute of the
final for a 2-1 come-from-behind victory
against mighty Egypt.
As the final whistle got nearer, substitute
Vincent Aboubakar controlled the ball just out-
side the area, clipped it over a defender, and
then shot past the goalkeeper to clinch
Cameroons fifth African title and first since
2002.
Egypts 44-year-old keeper, Essam el-
Hadary, watched the tournament-winning shot
slide past him right at the end to deny the
Egyptians a record-extending eighth title, and
el-Hadary a fifth triumph an incredible 19 years
after his first.
I cannot describe it. I know it was a won-
derful goal. It was a great goal. It was the goal
that gave us victory, said Cameroon striker
Robert Tambe, the player who was taken off to
make way for Aboubakar. We feel so much
joy. We say thanks to Aboubakar.
Egypt led through Mohamed el-Nenys goal

the next Cup of Nations, will be defending
champion for the 2019 tournament.
Aboubakars celebration saw him sprint
across the field toward the VIP section, in the
process flattening a member of the Cameroon
coaching staff who raced out to try and hug
him. The big striker was determined to get
close to the VIP area to deliver a message. As
he approached the enclosure, he stretched out

great Samuel Etoo, one of the African Cup
winners in 2002, stood celebrating the goal as
a spectator.
The message was: We are back. We are cham-
pions again. Weve done what you did.
The final in Libreville was rich in African
Cup history, although neither team was tipped
to get to the title-deciding game at the end of
the three-week tournament in Gabon.
Egypt is the record seven-time champion but
had qualified for the first time since winning a
third straight crown in 2010. With political
and couldnt even qualify for the final tourna-
ment in 2012, 2013 and two years ago.
Cameroon, with four titles, was one of two
teams with the next-best record after Egypt.
But Cameroon hadnt won a game at its last
three major tournaments and came to Gabon
without a bunch of its big-name players from
the European leagues. They decided to turn
down selection for the squad, perhaps fearing
that Cameroon would fail again.
Belgian coach Hugo Broos rebuilt the team
with youngsters, took 14 players that had
never been to a big event before to Gabon, and
focused on team spirit.
It clearly worked. Cameroon entered the sta-
dium ahead of the final with players singing
and dancing together. They exited in the same
way, this time taking the trophy with them.

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. Hideki
Matsuyama won the Waste Management
Phoenix Open on the fourth hole of a play-

Matsuyama won with a 10-foot birdie

where the 24-year-old Japanese star fin-

Matsuyama closed with a 5-under 66, par-

with 655, 434. The previous mark of
618,365 was set last year. A record 204,906

much busier day. In the case of
Wilson, for instance, the senior
competed in five matches on the
day to win gold at 106s. The two
underclassmen, in their quest for
consolation titles, endured a steep-
er workload, with McDonnell com-
peting in seven matches and Smith
in eight.
McDonnell went up against
Santa Teresas Melody Calderon
with the consolation title equat-
ing to third place overall on the
line. It was Calderon who knocked
McDonnell into the consolation
bracket via pin fall earlier in the
day. McDonnell returned the favor
in the consolation final, scoring a
pin while the match was dead-
locked 6-6 in the third period.
Smith faced a tough draw in her
opening match, being defeated by
No. 1 ranked Mia Olmos who
went on to win gold in 131s via
pin fall late in the second period.
Not only did Smith have to battle
through the consolation bracket
from there, she had to do so fight-
ing a stomach flu that had her
anguishing throughout the day.
Up until that (consolation
championship) match she was cry-
ing, Hoang said. She was cry-
ing, she was nervous. Coming
into it, it was very emotional.
Riding a streak of four consecu-
tive wins via pin fall into the
final, Smith faced Harkers Megan
Anderson, who held the lead until
late in the third period. With less
than one minute remaining in the
match, however, Smith scored a
reversal to take the lead and was
able to hold Anderson to the matt
without allowing an escape to cel-
ebrate a 6-5 victory.
It was the first time Hoang saw a
smile on Smiths face all day, he
said.
I think the adrenaline kicks in
at that point and you get to take a
big sigh of relief, Hoang said.
Last season, M-A took fourth
place at CCS which, until Saturday,
stood as the best finish in program
history. The Bears entered the
postseason at the No. 2 ranked
team in CCS, behind No. 1 Terra
Nova. But the Bears performed at a
remarkably high level, totaling 27
pin falls on the day.
These guys were hot, Hoang
said. The girls were on fire. Once
they got their lead they didnt turn
back. They just kept going.
By virtue of M-As five wrestlers
Wilson, Akinola, Ericson,
Smith and McDonnell finishing
in the top three of their respective
brackets, they each qualify for the

held at the Visalia Convention

Terra Nova also saw two
wrestlers win gold: Victoria

Minnah Adams took first in 189s.
Terra Nova earned two silver
medals as well, with Mikaela
Contreras taking second in 131s

Ants are critically important pollinators, dispersing

ant feed plants with their own feces. This, however, is the
first known example of ants managing and harvesting
plants which are necessary for the actual survival of that ant
species (this ant is found only on this one type of plant).
By the way, some ant species also appear to domesticate
other animals, herding wild aphids from leaf to leaf and
then milking them. OK, milking might be a stretch for

close to $40 million once the measure has
run its course. Those who campaigned for
the measure cited the poor condition of
Belmonts roads and its aging storm drain
system among the most urgent infrastruc-
ture projects the revenue would help fund,
while opponents argued the tax was unnec-
essary as the city had strong reserves, offi-
cials overinflated repair estimates and had
new development projects expected to gen-
erate revenue for the city.
The Measure I funds give us greater abil-
ity to carry out a lot of the projects that
have been on the drawing board for a num-
ber of years, said Councilman Warren
Lieberman.
Lieberman, who has served on the coun-
cil more than 11 years, said the choice to
include the advisory committee in the
Measure I language was a mechanism to
ensure citizens would have a chance to
review expenditures of the fund regardless
of council turnover.

As those confirming reports get made, Im
hoping it will increase the confidence of
the community even more so and the faith
it has in the city staff and the council to do
the kind of things they say they are going
to do.
Though the council received some feed-
back from residents requesting that the
council broaden the scope of the advisory
committee, Lieberman said the committee
would focus on the use of Measure I funds.
Tim Strinden, a retired federal auditor,
was among a handful of residents who
requested the council consider expanding
the scope of the advisory committee before
the Jan. 24 meeting.
[The council] should expand the mis-
sion of the advisory committee to where it
looks at total spending on streets and
storm drains in the future compared to total
spending on streets and storm drains in the
past. So you can basically isolate Measure
I funding and see how much effect its real-
ly having, he said.
Strinden opposed the measure last fall
and said restricting the advisory commit-
tees focus so that it is only reviewing
judge would put our country in such peril. If
something happens blame him and court sys-
tem. People pouring in. Bad!
He followed with another tweet saying he
had instructed the Homeland Security
Department to check people coming into the
country but that the courts are making the
job very difcult!
Vice President Mike Pence defended Trump,
saying the president can criticize anybody
he wants. Pence added that he believes the
American people nd it very refreshing that
they not only understand this presidents
mind, but they understand how he feels about
things.
At issue is the legality of a presidential

security. Whatever the outcome and however
the case drags on, a president who was used to
Measure I funds would not give members
the information necessary to make a com-
prehensive financial assessment of these
projects. Because funding for infrastructure
projects could come from other revenue
sources, the committees ability to com-
pare total spending on projects like street
improvements or storm drain replacement
over the years would be limited. He also
believes the city has generated sufficient
revenue from new developments and hotels
to address urgent infrastructure projects,
and that city officials have exaggerated the
need for street and storm drain repairs.
There is no urgency or risk of collapse
of our streets and storm drains, he said.
The cost of repairing them later wont be
much more than it is now.
Mayor Charles Stone reaffirmed the
councils commitment to addressing urgent
infrastructure projects.
Theres a huge storm drain and roads
problem that needs extra funding to be
addressed. Those are definite council prior-
ities and will continue to be. Were not
advocating for some other use of Measure
I.
Though Stone was encouraged that the
funds would help the city make necessary

The president is not a dictator, said Sen.
Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif. He is the chief
executive of our country. And there is a ten-
sion between the branches of government.
The government had told the appeals court
that the president alone has the power to
decide who can enter or stay in the United
States, an assertion that appeared to invoke
the wider battle to come over illegal immi-
gration.
Congress vests complete discretion in
the president to impose conditions on entry
power is largely immune from judicial con-
trol, according to the court ling.
We dont appoint judges to our district
courts to conduct foreign policy or to make
decisions about the national security, Pence
said.
Feinstein, the top Democrat on the Senate
Judiciary Committee, predicted the appeals
court would not have the last word. I have no
doubt that it will go to the Supreme Court,
and probably some judgments will be made

that the city has an infrastructure, mainte-
nance and rehabilitation funding shortfall.
He confirmed that the council is not at this
time considering any additional taxes or
assessments to address those needs.
Stone said discussions at last months
council meeting and a priority setting
meeting on Feb. 2 have fueled future discus-
sions about the possibility of creating a
public works or infrastructure commission
as a mechanism for incorporating public
input on infrastructure projects. Stone
expects the council to conduct a study ses-
sion on this kind of group in the coming
months.
Im supportive of creating such a com-
mittee, he said. I look forward to dis-
cussing the pros and cons.
Though the details of how that group
would operate remain unknown, for
Strinden, it all comes down to how much
information the group is given.
It depends on whether they would give
that committee figures on total spending,
he said. I dont know how much informa-
tion they would give that committee to
help them in their work.
City officials expect to begin recruit-
ment of advisory committee members
around June or July.
whether this president has exceed his author-
ity or not, she said.
In his ruling, Robart said it was not the
courts job to create policy or judge the wis-
dom of any particular policy promoted by the
other two branches, but to make sure that an
action taken by the government comports
with our countrys laws.
Trumps order applied to Iraq, Syria, Iran,
Sudan, Libya, Somalia and Yemen Muslim-
majority countries that the administration
said raise terrorism concerns. The order had
caused unending confusion for many foreign-
ers trying to reach the United States, prompt-
ed protests across the United States and led to
multiple court challenges.
Trumps criticism of Robart echoed cam-
paign comments against a federal judge of
Mexican heritage who was overseeing a law-
suit against Trump University. Justice
Department lawyers could be called upon to
answer for Trumps words as the travel ban
case makes it way through the courts.
We all get disappointed from time to time
at the outcome in courts on things that we
care about, said Senate Majority Leader
Mitch McConnell, R-Ky. But I think it is
best to avoid criticizing judges individually.

PRESCHOOL

commonly both parents in a house-
hold work and need child care assis-
tance.
Those struggling to find preschool
space for their child can face serious
challenges in navigating a full-time
job while also managing the need to
transport their kids to different care
centers throughout the day.
David Fleishman, executive director
of Child Care Coordinating Council
of San Mateo County, said adequate
preschool access has special rele-
vance to those holding unstable jobs
because they may not have the work
flexibility needed to leave and trans-
port their children between facilities.
A number of people have to leave
their job midday to take their kids
from one place to another, and that
can cause disruption, he said.
Houston noted the requirements for
some to shuffle through facilities dur-
ing the day can add to more cars on the
road, worsening congestion along the
local thoroughfares seemingly per-
petually stuck in a traffic quagmire.
The trickle down of influences pre-
school and child care can have is

undeserved.
They want more of your money to
pad their salaries and fat pension
plans, said the opposition argument
authored by dedicated tax rivals Mark
Hinkle and Jack Hickey, who oppose
most local revenue measures.
Officials claim though the parcel
tax, which has been in place since
1991, provides an essential source of
money allowing the district to finance
core programs and support services,
plus offer competitive salaries to edu-
cators.
Yes on Y maintains and extends edu-
cational quality by simply continuing
existing, voter-approved local funding
with no increase in the current tax
rates, said an advocacy argument
signed by school board President
Chelsea Bonini, as well as local resi-
dents and members of the school com-
munity. State Sen. Jerry Hill, D-San
Mateo, San Mateo County Supervisor
Carole Groom, district Trustee Audrey
Ng have also expressed their support
for the measure, according to the docu-
ments filed with the county.
The district school board unani-
mously agreed in November to place
the tax extension on the ballot, fol-
lowing a public polling process show-
ing 76 percent of likely voters in a
coming election would favor the pro-
indicative of the need for officials
from many different agencies to come
together while addressing the short-
age, said Houston.
It is an interconnected issue, she
said. It is about housing and trans-
portation and support for working
families in this county in so many
ways.
In meeting with the San Carlos City
Council, San Mateo County Planning
Commission and other similar agen-
cies, preschool advocates are seeking
loosened zoning restrictions as a
means of allowing child care centers
in areas where they were previously
blocked. They have also called for
policies requiring builders to preserve
space for centers in dense develop-
ments likely to enhance demand on
the already strained system.
According to video of a San Carlos
City Council meeting last month,
such proposals were well received.
I would love to see us bring this
back and look at some of the
options, said Councilman Cameron
Johnson.
Though he appreciated officials
receptiveness, Fleishman noted pre-
school advocates still face a variety
of tall tasks ahead of accomplishing
their goals.
There is not a lot of land that is
posal. A supermajority of voter sup-
port would be required for the tax to
pass.
Should voters approve the measure,
it would remain through 2026 but sen-
iors would be eligible to exempt them-
selves from paying. If it were to fail,
the district claims it would lose a siz-
able amount of income, likely requir-
ing officials to examine a variety of
difficult programmatic cuts.
When current voter-approved funds
expire in June, our elementary and
middle schools will lose $7 [million]
annually reducing our ability to
maintain academic programs and
attract and retain quality teachers,
said the advocates.
Critics though believe the district is
already plugged into a variety of
hearty tax revenue streams, granting
officials an opportunity to offer
administrators inflated and unwarrant-
ed salaries.
The measure says that none of the
funds will be used for administration.
But funds generated separately from
this parcel tax can be use for adminis-
tration expenses without limits. So
that is really an empty promise. Do
not be fooled, said the oppositions
argument.
The parcel tax extension marks the
second measure the elementary school
district has sought from residents in
the last two years, following voters
approving in 2015 Measure X, a $148
facilities bond proposed to accommo-
date enrollment growth.
Last year, school officials struck a

readily available and it costs a lot of
money and there is not a lot of money
to be made in child care so its tough,
he said.
In light of studies showing expo-
sure to preschool and early education
can set children on the path for a life-
time of scholastic success, Houston
said the shortage is compounded
because many locals have enhanced
interest in enrolling their children.
Kinahan said a focus of the advoca-
cy effort is to spread awareness that
many residents may be in the same
boat facing difficulties in accessing
the education sought for their chil-
dren.
For parent who may be struggling
with juggling child care and pre-
school, they may not realize there are
thousands of other families that have
the same problem, she said.
Looking ahead, advocates and local
officials will come together later this
spring for a summit designed to close
the gap between supply of facilities
and demand for services. Houston said
she expects the collaborative effort
will advance a significant community
need.
This is a complex issue that
requires many different sectors to
come together for solutions, she
said.
deal to pay $61 million of the bond
money to the owner of Charter Square
Shopping Center in Foster City to pur-
chase the property and build a new ele-
mentary school.
The project long sought by officials
to address school overcrowding was
set to move ahead before Foster City
Councilman Herb Perez, as an individ-
ual, filed a lawsuit attempting to block
school construction due to claims the
deal violated the competitive construc-
tion bid process.
Money generated by a parcel tax can
be used to finance operations and pay
salaries while bonds may only be
spent to improve campuses and facili-
ties.
Parcel tax advocates claim a vote in
favor of the measure is a step toward
fortifying property values, as
improved public schools make a com-
munity more desirable.
And while critics claim the district
has not shown enough progress aca-
demically over recent years to justify a
call for more money, advocates argue
the concerns of those who consistent-
ly fight such measures are to be disre-
garded.
Our opponents dont know our Mindset for Maximum Success in
local schools, but we do. Join parents,
teachers, educators, civic leaders,
Realtors and a unanimous school board
in voting yes on Y, said the argument.

amended nOTICe OF PeTITIOn TO
admInISTeR eSTaTe OF
Teresita Da Silva Carag
Case Number: 17PRO00075
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, con-
tingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or es-
tate, or both, of Teresita Da Silva Carag.
A Petition for Probate has been filed by
Solanita Dela Pena in the Superior
Court of California, County of San Mateo.
The Petition for Probate requests that
Solanita Dela Pena be appointed as per-
sonal representative to administer the
estate of the decedent. The petition re-
quests the decedents will and codicils, if
any, be admitted to probate. The will
and any codicils are available for exami-
nation in the file kept by the court.
The petition requests authority to admin-
ister the estate under the Independent
Administration of Estates Act. (This au-
thority will allow the personal representa-
tive to take many actions without obtain-
ing court approval. Before taking certain
very important actions, however, the per-
sonal 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 ob-
jection to the petition and shows good
cause why the court should not grant au-
thority.
A hearing on the petition will be held in
this court as follows: MAR. 14, 2017 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 peti-
tion, you should appear at the hearing
and state your objections or file written
objections with the court before the hear-
ing. Your appearance may be in person
or by your attorney.
If you are a creditor or a contingent cred-
itor 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 representa-
tive, as defined in section 58(b) of the
Calilfornia Probate Code, or (2) 60 days
from the date of mailing or personal de-
livery to you of a notice under sectioin
9052 of the Callifornia Probate
Code.Other California statutes and legal
authority may affect your rights as a
creditor. You may want to consult with an
attorney knowledgable in California law.
You may examine the file kept by the
court. If you are a person interested in
the estate, you may file with the court a
Request for Special Notice (form DE-
154) of the filing of an inventory and ap-
praisal of estate assets or of any petition
or account as provided in Probate Code
section 1250. A Request for Special No-
tice form is available from the court clerk.

marich Confectionery Co. ISSUES ALLERGY ALERT ON
POTENTIAL UNDECLARED ALMONDS IN PRODUCT
marich Confectionery of Hollister, California is voluntarily
recalling 4.25oz Valentine Chocolate Caramel Hearts UPC
COde 797817-44440-9 because it may contain Triple Choco-
late Toffee which contains almonds. People who have an al-
lergy or severe sensitivity almonds run the risk of serious or
life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume these prod-
ucts.
Product was distributed in California, Oklahoma and minne-
sota in retail form.
The product can be identified by its Valentines Day themed
packaging. It comes in a 4.25oz (120g) bright red and pink box
with the product name of Chocolate Caramel Hearts. The lot
code being recalled is 0031711 with a best by date of 9/30/17
and can be found on the bottom of the package.
No illnesses have been reported to date.
The recall was initiated after it was discovered that product
containing almonds was distributed in packaging that did not
reveal the presence of almonds. Subsequent investigation in-
dicates the problem was caused by a temporary breakdown in
the company's packaging processes that resulted in the pack-
aging mix up.
Consumers who have purchased 4.25oz Valentine Chocolate
Caramel Hearts are urged to return it Marich Confectionery
for a full refund. Consumers with questions may contact the
company at 1-800-624-7055 Monday through Friday 8:00 am
