SACRAMENTO REGION (MPG) - The
Cal Expo Board of Directors
unanimously approved a proposal from Ovations Fanfare,
in conjunction with Sacramento
Republic FC, to expand seating at Bonney Field from the
current 8,000 seats to between
approximately 10,500 to 11,500
seats for the 2015 season. Final
seating
capacity
will depend
on further
evaluation
from the
bleacher
manufacturer.
Expansion
includes
new seats along with the reconfigwuration of some existing
seats.
Given 2014’s sold-out attendance and the team’s USL Pro
National Championship victory
at Bonney Field, both Ovations
and Sacramento Republic FC
have been exploring the possibility of adding more temporary
seats to the facility to satisfy
demand. Sacramento Republic
FC reports that more than 7,200
season tickets have already been
sold for the 2015 season.
“Our partnership with
Ovations and Sacramento
Republic FC further demonstrates the vitality of Cal Expo
as a prominent community asset
and keeps with our efforts to
further enhance the State fairgrounds,” said Cal Expo CEO
Rick Pickering.
The additional seats will
require the use of more land
area. Consequently, additional
square footage will be added to
the north end of the existing 4.86
acres, for a total leased acreage
of 5.397. In exchange for this
additional land area, Ovations’
annual guaranteed minimum rent
to Cal Expo will increase from
$75,000 to $100,000.
Cal Expo entered into a Letter
of Understanding in October
2014 to review and evaluate
the expanded seating proposal
by Ovations. That proposal
launched the formal California
Environmental Quality Act
(CEQA) review process as well
as negotiations between Cal Expo
and Ovations. Ovations estimates

Carmichael Resident
Celebrates 104th Birthday

birthday. Photos courtesy of Aegis of Carmichael
Reaching the century mark three days after Christmas, Carmichaelite Rose Kenney shows a 1940s photograph of
herself and her late husband, Larry.
Story and photo
by Susan Maxwell Skinner
CARMICHAEL, CA (MPG) - If Rose
Kenney felt cheated of gifts by
having a birthday three days
after Christmas, she’s had 100
years to get over it.
Celebrating the century milestone on December 28th, the
five-foot-tall centenarian prefers greeting cards anyway. The
Carmichael home where she has
lived for over 50 years is as neat
as a pin, and she hardly wants to
add clutter. “Mom likes everything in its place,” reported her
daughter Sue (67). “She’s very
organized; she knows where
everything is.”
A century of tidy habits (she
loves plain American food,
eschews alcohol, and has never
smoked) shows its benefits. Rose
also credits her petal smooth
complexion to a lifetime use of
Oil of Olay and to sleeping every
night—summer or winter—with
an open window. “I just like
fresh air,” she confirmed.
The daughter of storekeepers, Rose was born in Bellwood,
NE. She married Errol Flynn
lookalike Larry Kenney when
she was 22 and moved west
when the Los Angeles Piggly
Wiggly offered him work. The
Kenneys reached Sacramento in
1963. With daughters Sue and
Christine in tow, they settled in
Carmichael. Larry worked for
Frito Lay and, like most married women of her generation,
Rose stayed home for her kids.
“My friends loved to come to
our house after school,” recalled
Sue Kenney. “Mom let us sing
and dance and do whatever we
liked. They loved her. She gave
us wonderful birthday parties
with homemade cheesecake.”
A voracious reader, Rose starts
each day with a newspaper and
manages to consume three romantic novels per week. No day is
complete without her favorite TV
soap operas, and she still roots
for the LA Dodgers. A widow
since 1967, she now has a live-in
caregiver and daughter Sue lives
minutes away. “All my life, I’ve
felt my mom was there for me,”
Sue explained. “I can still come
over any time and tell her anything. She listens carefully and
gives me good advice.”

CARMICHAEL, CA (MPG) - Aegis of
Carmichael’s resident, Valentina
Kern, recently celebrated her
104th birthday. She was born on
December 12th, 1910, in Irkutsk,
Siberia and was raised in Harbin,
China where her father assisted
with building railroads until they
moved to San Francisco in 1929,
before the Golden Gate Bridge
was even built.
Valentina married her husband
Max in 1933, and they were married for 71 years. While Max was
busy building alters and cupolas
at most of the Russian Churches
in the greater San Francisco area,
Valentina was busy raising their
only child, Nina Wulff, who
resides in Sacramento.
Valentina was very active in the
Russian Orthodox Church, loved
to cook Russian food (particularly
pierogi), and enjoyed knitting and

The Year That Santa
Almost Didn’t Come
By Edric Cane
“Santa! Santa!”
“Yes, Margie? (For such is the name of Mrs. Claus) — Come and
give me a hand, will you? I still have some presents to wrap.”
“All right. Coming right away. Just let me finish grooming that
reindeer.”
Well, a quarter of an hour later, Santa had still not come out of the
stable and Mrs. Claus was getting really impatient.
“Are you coming, Santa? You won’t need those reindeer if I can’t
get those parcels all wrapped up for you.”
“All right! All right! How can I
help you?”
“It’s all that string I
have to tie around
these parcels.
If you’re there
to put your finger when I tie
the knot it really
makes things go a
lot faster. Put your
finger here and hold
down fast.”
And so Santa Claus
helped Margie Claus
tie the Christmas
presents for Laura,
and Jean-Paul,
and Maureen, and
Michael, and a lot of
other boys and girls, big
and little, blond and
brown, thin and plump,
that lived in warm
places and cold
places, that were
in 5th grade, 4th
grade, 1st grade,
Kindergarten,
or that didn’t
go to school at
all.
After
a
while Santa got
tired of carefully watching
what was going on.
He just put his finger where he was told,
pressed down when
he was told, but he was
really thinking of something else. He was thinking
of the wonderful night that was
coming, when he would open up the
doors of his stable, jump on the sleigh,
and say ”Giddy-up!” to the reindeer as
they would bounce into the open sky pulling Santa and the sleigh full of toys and
presents. He thought of the flight over the
long stretch of snow-covered ground, perhaps
even over the clouds for a while, with the millions of bright stars lighting his way; and the moon
rising; and seeing its reflection in the lakes and rivers.
He thought of the quiet of it all, and the beauty. Peace
on earth, goodwill to men. He was playing his
part, and he hoped they would
understand.
He thought of the
lights he would see on
the ground: first a single light here and there from a solitary igloo or
farmhouse; then larger clusters as he moved closer to towns and cities. And at each light he would swoop down, jump off onto the roof
with some presents in the bag swung over his shoulder, and down the
chimney, stuff presents in stockings or under the tree, and up again,
and off again between the lights of the stars and the lights of the
houses. He loved that night, and it was well worth working hard all
year just preparing for it.
OOOOOCHHH! What was that? He was really paying no attention to what he or Mrs. Claus were doing, and he had forgotten to
pull out his finger at the very last moment, just before the knot was
pulled tight. And this time, the knot had got him! His finger was tied
to a big heavy parcel, and the more he wiggled, the less he seemed
able to pull it loose.
It seemed an easy matter at first to untie the knot. But you don’t
know the knots Margie Claus puts on her presents. They’re just big
strong knots made with solid string, and even Margie couldn’t untie
that knot.
“You clumsy Santa! Can’t you pay attention?” she said.
“Do you have to tie them so tight?” he replied.
“Well, yes, I have to, when they’re going to the other side of the
earth, through snow and wind, and down the narrow chimneys.
You’re the one who complained when I used cheaper string and half
your presents broke open the other year.”
She looked for a pair of scissors but just couldn’t find one. When
she did, she couldn’t slide it under the string so tightly was it
wrapped around the parcel.
“What are we going to do,” said Santa. “I can’t ride the reindeer
with that parcel tied around my finger.”
“It’s too silly,” said Margie. “There has to be a way to break that
string or we’ll have to cancel presents this year.”
“We can’t do that! All the stockings are out, the children have
gone to bed and are already dreaming of all the things they will find
when they wake up. Can’t you think of something?”
Margie couldn’t think of anything and it was getting late.
“I’ll have to try and drive with that parcel on my hand.”
“But you can’t do that, and even if you could, how are you going
to slide down the chimney and climb back up again?”
“I have to try….I have to try,” said Santa as he walked towards
the stable.
He opened the stable door and the reindeer were there, impatient
to leave on their journey. He climbed in his seat, and immediately he
saw how painful and difficult it would be to steer the sleigh in his situation. And then there was that pesky mouse he had been trying to
get rid of, squeaking in the corner, sneering at him he thought after
having eaten half the oat he had bought for his reindeer. He’ll really
have to do something about it on his return…that is, if he was able to
go at all. Santa was very near to being very mad, and that mouse was
not helping at all, squeaky, sneaky, sneering little thing.
But what was that? The mouse was running up the leg of one of
the reindeer, jumping from one to the other, jumping on the sleigh.
The brat had never been so bold.
“Off! Away! Get out of here!” said Santa. But he wasn’t very good
at brushing it off with his hand tied to the parcel.
The mouse was climbing up his pants! Up on his shoulder, down
his arm, and on that miserable parcel! What could he do to get rid of
it? It was sniffing here and there, and seemed actually ready to bite
his finger! But no, it wasn’t his finger it was after, it was the string.
And it nibbled and nibbled as Santa watched in amazement. A few
moments later the string broke loose. The little mouse had freed him
of the heavy present. He threw it into the back of the sleigh as the
mouse jumped off. Hardly waiting for the “Giddy-up!” the reindeer
bounced through the open door and into the night.
As he rode towards the land of the children between sky and snow,
he thought of that little mouse that had been waiting for the right
moment to say “Thank you.”
He too knew how he would say “Thank you” to the little mouse
when he came back from his very special journey.

planned a counterattack through the
Ardennes forest. Behind the cover of
the thick forest and the horrid weather,
the Germans scored initial successes,
creating the “bulge” in the Allies’ line.
The troops fought in conditions that
would, in other circumstances, have been
a winter wonderland, among evergreen
trees freshly covered in snow. The
inclement weather favored the Germans,
delaying reinforcements and neutralizing
Allied air superiority. American casualties
reached at least 80,000 throughout the
course of the battle.
Soldiers who were lucky created
makeshift Christmas trees by hanging
grenades on pine trees. But GIs who were
captured by the Germans were packed
into boxcars in unsanitary conditions and
got almost nothing to eat. “They filled the
time wanly singing carols,” Weintraub
writes. “The Germans complained that it
kept them awake and threatened to shoot
if the songs didn’t cease.”
At the front, German loudspeakers
broadcast across the lines, “How
would you like to die for Christmas?”
Americans didn’t intimidate so easily.
One American soldier in the encircled
city of Bastogne commented to another,
“They’ve got us surrounded -- the poor
bastards.” When a German commander
demanded the surrender of the
Americans at Bastogne, Gen. Anthony
THE RICH LOWRY COLUMN
By Rich Lowry
Christmas at the
Battle of the Bulge
“Sir, this is Patton talking ... You have
just got to make up Your mind whose
side You’re on. You must come to my
assistance, so that I may dispatch the
entire German Army as a birthday present
to your Prince of Peace ...” -- Prayer of
Gen. George S. Patton, Dec. 23, 1944
It is with Patton’s plea to the Ultimate
Commanding General that Stanley
Weintraub opens his book, “11 Days
in December: Christmas at the Bulge,
1944.” It’s the tale of the worst Christmas
for American soldiers since Valley Forge.
The Allied breakout from Normandy
after D-Day had convinced Gen. Dwight
Eisenhower that the war with Germany
would be over by Christmas, but as the
Allied advance slowed, the Germans

McAuliffe famously responded “Nuts!”
Gen. Patton, who had been looking
forward to thrusting toward the Saar
region of Germany, instead had to relieve
Bastogne. Earlier, he had badgered his
chaplain to pray for optimal conditions
for an offensive. The chaplain noted “that
it isn’t a customary thing among men of
my profession to pray for clear weather
to kill fellow men.” Undeterred, Patton
asked, “Are you teaching me theology or
are you the chaplain of the Third Army?”
Patton distributed a printed prayer for
good weather to his troops and made his
own appeal, noted above. The weather
improved, and Patton wrote in his diary,
“A clear, cold Christmas, lovely weather
for killing Germans, which seems a bit
queer seeing Whose birthday it is.” By
early January, the Germans were forced
to withdraw from the Ardennes, and the
Allies were at the Rhine by March.
One schoolmaster returning to his
blasted classroom after the battle found
a message scrawled on the blackboard
from a distraught German officer: “From
the ruins, out of blood and death shall
come forth a brotherly world.” Unlikely
as it seemed at the time, he was right. The
Allied victory created the predicate for a
free Europe at peace.

way it made me feel. HalfLife 2 arrived ten years ago as
of November 16th, but I got on
the train late, playing it only
recently out of ignorant curiosity rather than to experience
what many call the only perfect
game. I’ve played games that
have given me stronger emotions (some have even have
made me cry), and I’ve played
games with more profound
messages, but Half-Life 2 conveys a full range of emotions
over the course of its campaign,
more so than anything else I’ve
ever played.
I remember being completely
underwhelmed by the first HalfLife, released in 1998. I came
in expecting the first example of advanced storytelling
in gaming, but instead found
a series of outdated graphics
and mechanics. So, going into
Half-Life 2, I wasn’t expecting
much.
The first moment I knew that
I was in for something special,
that I was going to play a game
This one, dehumanizing act, from this one, bored soldier left me
feeling betrayed as a gamer. I had expected power, and was met with
degradation. Photo courtesy Noah Howard
that would be the entertainment
high-point of my life, was in the
first few minutes. I’d just gotten off of a train, entering for
the first time the station in the
gritty, post-apocalyptic City 17.
As I made my way through
the station, filled with faces
of oppressed citizens, I came
across a gas-masked soldier
standing lazily by a trash bin.
A soda can rested on the rim
of the bin. He knocked it to the
floor.
“Pick it up.”
I did the rational thing, and
picked up the can. And then I
threw it right in his face. My
disobedience was met with a
brutal beating from the business end of his electrified billy
club.It’s one of the simplest
moments in gaming, but one of
the most powerful. There have
been numerous analyses written, all valid, about this one
moment and what it means,
but for me, all it did was get
me angry. Most games (shooters especially) are, at their core,
power fantasies where you’re
the mightiest, most important person around . This one,
dehumanizing act, from this
one, bored soldier left me feeling betrayed as a gamer. I had
expected power, and was met
with degradation. In most
games, I shoot the enemy
because the game tells me they
deserve to be shot. Half-Life 2
was the first game where I was
motivated personally to fight
the enemy, where I wanted to
shoot them beyond the reason
“the game told me so.” I had
a vendetta to settle with this
soldier, and with all of his gasmasked kind.
This moment represents HalfLife 2 as a whole. Valve, the
developer, uses that initial kernel of rage to keep the player
emotionally invested in the
saga that turns you from everyman into the One Free Man, a
messiah to the game’s downtrodden humanity. Unlike
other games, it does so not by
instilling a physical change in
power-level or appearance in
the protagonist, but by manipulating players’ emotions so that
they feel themselves grow into
their saviour role.
Angelou almost assuredly
never played Half-Life 2, but
she would’ve remembered how
it made her feel.

CASE: Elon Green Jr. (12/18/14)
PROSECUTOR: Deputy District Attorney Tate Davis, Elder Abuse Prosecution Unit
District Attorney Jan Scully announced today that Elon Green Jr. was convicted by jury of felony
criminal threats, felony residential burglary and misdemeanor elder abuse. The jury also found true
that Green had previously served time in prison for being a felon in possession of a firearm.
On September 2, 2014, 42-year-old Green approached his parents’ house. When he saw his
stepmother in the garage, he rushed towards her and repeatedly threatened to kill her. She retreated
into her house, locked the doors and called 911. Green then entered the attached garage and attempted
to break through the interior door with a screwdriver. Green’s 86-year-old wheelchair bound father
tried to stop Green’s attack. In response, he assaulted his father.
Green’s criminal history includes four separate prior felony convictions for felon in possession of
a firearm, a misdemeanor high speed evasion from law enforcement, and several drug and alcohol
related charges. Green has previously been sentenced to prison on two occasions.
Sentencing is set for January 23, 2015 at 9:00 a.m. in Department 10 before the Honorable Greta
Curtis Fall.
CASE: Joseph Francis Corey (12/12/14)
PROSECUTOR: Deputy District Attorney William Satchell, Homicide Unit
District Attorney Jan Scully announced today that the Honorable Greta Curtis Fall sentenced
Joseph Francis Corey to life in prison without the possibility of parole, plus 25 years. On October
30, 2014, a jury convicted Corey of the first-degree murder of Sacramento County Animal
Control Officer Roy Marcum. The jury also found true that Corey used a firearm and two special
circumstances, that the murder was committed against an appointed official and lying in wait.
On November 27, 2012, Corey was evicted from his residence in Galt after foreclosure. The next
day, Officer Marcum responded to the residence at the request of bank representatives to retrieve
several dogs and cats left by Corey. Unbeknownst to Officer Marcum, Corey had snuck back into the
residence and barricaded the door from the inside. When Officer Marcum approached the residence,
Corey shot Officer Marcum with a high-powered hunting rifle through the front door.
CASE: Taejuan Jackson (12/12/14)
PROSECUTOR: Deputy District Attorney Thien Ho, Gangs & Hate Crimes Unit
District Attorney Jan Scully announced today that the Honorable Curtis Fiorini sentenced Taejuan
Jackson to 50 years to life in prison. On November 12, 2014, a jury convicted Jackson of the firstdegree murder of Juwan Howard. The jury also found true that Jackson personally discharged a
firearm causing the victim’s death.
The evidence at trial demonstrated that Jackson had prior encounters with Juwan Howard. Upon
seeing Mr. Howard on December 21, 2013 at the Fast Trip gas station on Florin Road, Jackson
pulled out a firearm and shot him.
CASE: Johnathan Ball (12/10/14)
PROSECUTOR: Deputy District Attorney Nancy Cochrane, Special Assault & Child Abuse
Unit
District Attorney Jan Scully announced that Johnathan Ball was convicted by jury of 10 countsof
child molestation charges.
Ball molested a female family member for two years when she was between the ages of 10 and
12. The assaults included fondling, digital penetration and sexual intercourse, which resulted in the
victim becoming pregnant when she was 12 years old. The jury also found true the allegation that
Ball personally inflicted great bodily injury based on the resulting pregnancy.
Ball will be sentenced on January 23, 2015 in Department 17 by the Honorable Ernest Sawtelle.

First Hospice House in Sacramento Area
Sehr-Allen Charitable Foundation Breaks Ground
SACRAMENTO, CA (MPG) - People
facing a lack of resources for
hospice and placement benefits at the final stages of their
lives may now have a place welcoming them—and aiming to
provide them with the medical,
physical, emotional, and spiritual needs that are crucial during
this time in their lives. The SehrAllen Charitable Foundation will
break ground on this new, beautiful hospice house—the first of
its kind in the Sacramento area—
on Thursday, January 8th at 2:30
p.m. The ceremony will be held
at 4970 Walnut Ave, Sacramento,
CA.
Sacramento lawmakers,
community leaders, area care providers, Veteran’s Administration,
and elected officials including Congresswoman Matsui,
Assemblyman Ken Cooley, and
Sacramento City Supervisor
Susan Peters will b in attendance
at the groundbreaking ceremony.
Hospice House gives priority
to veterans; reaches underserved
populations including the homeless, those who don’t qualify for
Medicare, and the non/underinsured; accepts patients from
any hospice providers; and features a beautiful and private
outdoor garden, family sleeping
area, and onsite pet sanctuary.
The founders of Sehr-Allen
Charitable Foundation, Dr. James
Sehr and Mrs. Angela Sehr,
have dedicated their lives to caring for people who are injured
or ill. Through their first-hand
patient care experience, they
deeply understand the challenges and hardship patients and
their loved ones face during life
altering illnesses. It is even more
challenging when the illness is
terminal and patients and family
members must deal with death
and dying. Often times, family
members must leave their jobs to
care for a dying patient, adding
more burden to the already fragile situation. Dr. and Mrs. James
Sehr hope that the foundation
can serve as a sustaining source
of financial support to meet
the special needs of individual
dying patients and their families.
Further, the Foundation provides
a meaningful way for patients’
families, friends, and others to
honor their loved ones by contributing to the cause.

VNET detectives had long
heard rumors about a house in
Rancho Cordova being a major
source of GHB in Roseville and
the rest of the Sacramento metropolitan area.
On December 9th, Roseville
officers served a search warrant at that home in Rancho
Cordova. The house had a fortified security door and was
protected with numerous surveillance cameras. Inside the
house, officers found a large
quantity of a GHB substitute drug disguised as, and
sold as, massage oil. They also
found more than $20,000 in
cash, firearms, methamphetamine packaged for sale, and
other evidence of illegal drug
sale and other related charges,
and booked at the Sacramento

The initial Annual Percentage Rate (APR) is currently 5.00% for a new Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC), and is fixed for the first 5 years of the
loan which is called the draw period. After the initial 5 year period, the APR can change once based on the value of an Index and Margin. The Index
is the weekly average yield on U.S. Treasury Securities adjusted to a constant maturity of 10 years and the margin is 3.50%. The current APR for the
repayment period is 6.00%. The maximum APR that can apply any time during your HELOC is 10%. A qualifying transaction consists of the following
conditions: (1) the initial APR assumes a maximum HELOC of $100,000, and a total maximum Loan-to-Value (LTV) of 70% including the new HELOC
and any existing 1st Deed of Trust loan on your residence; (2) your residence securing the HELOC must be a single-family home that you occupy as
your primary residence; (3) if the 1st Deed of Trust loan is with a lender other than El Dorado Savings Bank, that loan may not exceed $200,000
and may not be a revolving line of credit. Additional property restrictions and requirements apply. All loans are subject to a current appraisal. Property
insurance is required and flood insurance may be required. Rates, APR, terms and conditions are subject to change without notice. Other conditions
apply. A $375 early closure fee will be assessed if the line of credit is closed within three years from the date of opening. An annual fee of $50 will be
assessed on the first anniversary of the HELOC and annually thereafter during the draw period. Ask for a copy of our “Fixed Rate Home Equity Line of
Credit Disclosure Notice” for additional important information. Other HELOC loans are available under different terms.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19)
The New Year brings challenges
that can change many things
in your life. You need to be
prepared not only to confront
them, but also to deal with
what
happens
afterward.
TAURUS (April 20 to May 20)
You have what it takes to set
your goals quite a bit higher
this year. Learn what you
need to know and put what
you learn into your efforts. A
partner offers loving support.
GEMINI (May 21 to June 20)
In true Gemini Twin fashion,
you’re conflicted about a
decision you know you’ll have
to make in this New Year. Best
advice: Get the facts before
you make any commitment.
LIBRA (September 23 to
October 22) Your most important
New Year’s resolution should
be to work out problems with a
family member in order to avoid
continuing misunderstandings.
Do it soon, for both of your sakes.
SCORPIO (October 23 to
November 21) The New Year
has much to offer the intensely
determined Scorpian, who isn’t
afraid to take on challenges
and stay with them until
they surrender their rewards.
SAGITTARIUS
(November
22 to December 21) You’ll
have many fine opportunities in
this New Year. But be warned:
Reject offers of “help.” You
work best when you’re free
to be your own creative self.

everyday items like newspaper (think
color comics) and children’s drawings, which can be glued together

houseplants in the green while you’re
away from home: Set plants in the

your flowerpot does not have drain

and feed it from the topsoil to the tub.
This will keep plants alive and thriving for a week or more.” — D.R. in

Christmas Around the World By Sabrina Napolitano
In America, Christmas means Santa
Claus, brightly decorated Christmas
trees and gingerbread cookies. But
other countries celebrate Christmas in
their own special way! Take a look at
some of the unique Christmas traditions
below and share them with your family.
It’s a fun way to learn about a new
culture, and might even provide some
ideas to spice up your own Christmas.
In Australia, Santa’s sleigh is pulled by
The United Kingdom
6 white kangaroos.
The British celebrate much the way
we do in America, but with an added a nice Christmas pudding, traditionally
twist. During Christmas dinner, they’ll made with dried fruits held together by
tear apart Christmas “crackers” -- egg or suet.
cardboard tubes wrapped in decorative Italy
paper made to resemble a large sweet. The Italians love to use nativity crib
Inside is a paper hat, small toy and scenes to tell the Christmas story. In
a riddle or trivia. The paper hats are fact, it’s not uncommon for nativity
normally worn at Christmas dinner, crib scenes to be very grandiose,
which usually consists of roast beef or sometimes covered in candles and
goose. For dessert, the British will have decorative paper. The largest nativity
crib scene is in the Italian city of
Naples, with more than 600 objects on
it! Typically, Italian families eat a light
fish dinner on Christmas Eve before
going to Midnight Mass. One of the real
treats of an Italian Christmas are the
sweets such as struffoli, balls of fried
dough drizzled in honey.
Australia
Down Under, it’s actually summertime
during Christmas! Even though it’s
hot, that doesn’t stop the Australians
from celebrating. Many decorate their
houses with Christmas bush, a native
tree with white flowers that turn red in
the summer. Australians even have
their own Christmas carols, such as
“Six White Boomers,” which tells the
story of Santa using kangaroos to
delivery presents in Australia’s summer
weather.

• It was ancient Greek philosopher
Plato who made the following sage
observation: “Good people do not
need laws to tell them to act responsibly, while bad people will find a way
around the laws.”
• How would you like to brush your
teeth with salt, chalk or ground brick?
The first tooth powders that were used
with toothbrushes were made of just
such materials.
• When you think of hibernating
bears, you typically imagine some
cozy cave in the woods, right? Well,
the next time you’re out for a winter
hike, you’d better pay close attention
to exactly where you’re going; some
bears spend the cold season curled up
on the ground in large nests made of
branches.
• Greyhounds have better vision
than any other breed of dog.
• Every May, horse lovers flock
to Churchill Downs in Louisville,
Kentucky, to see the world’s finest
thoroughbreds race in the Kentucky
Derby. While there, spectators will
collectively consume more than 1,800
gallons of mint juleps.
• If you’re a cat lover, you might not
be surprised to learn that a group of
felines can be referred to as a glaring,
a pounce, a clutter or a clowder. Feral
cats en masses are known as a destruction of cats.

Fred’s hopeless grouchiness begins

a lot left ahead of them.

NOTICE OF PETITION TO ADMINISTER
ESTATE OF RAYMOND OTHELLO CRUTCHER
(descendent)
ESTATE NO. 34-2014-00171769
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, and
contingent creditors of and persons who may be
otherwise interested in the will or estate, or both of
RAYMOND OTHELLO CRUTCHER (deceased):
A petition has been filed by MERLIN
CRUTCHER AND MICHAEL CRUTCHER
(BROTHERS) in the Superior Court of
California, County of Sacramento, requesting
that MERLIN CRUTCHER be appointed as
Executor to administer the estate of the decedent.
The petition requests the decedent’s will
and codicils, if any, be admitted to probate.
The will and any codicils are available for
examination 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 executor
to take many actions without obtaining court
approval. Before taking certain very important
actions, however, the executor will be required to
give notice to interested persons unless they have
waived notice or have 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.
Bond is not required.
A hearing on the petition will be held in this court
as follows: December 18, 2014, 9:00 a.m. in Dept.
No. 129 at Ridgeway Family Relations Courthouse,
3341 Power Inn Road, Sacramento, CA 95826.
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 deceased, 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 California Probate Code, or (2)
60 days from the date of mailing or personal
delivery to you of a notice under section 9052
of the California Probate Code. Other California
statutes and legal authority may affect your
rights as a creditor. You may want to consult
with an attorney knowledgeable in California law.
YOU MAY EXAMINE the file kept by the
court. If you are 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
appraisal of estate assets or of any petition or
account as provided in Probate Code section
1250. A Request for Special Notice form is
available from the court clerk. The name, address
and telephone number of the Attorney for the
Petitioner is: Merlin A. Crutcher, 2333 North
Avenue, Sacramento, CA 95838 (916)715-5958

FAMILY FEATURES
D
elicious food, fine wine, friends and family. These are a few of everyone’s favorite things
during the holiday season.
Luckily, there are a few ways to help you host the ultimate party with family and friends
this season without breaking the bank. Shoppers who switch to ALDI can save as much as
50 percent on products such as wine, cooking and baking necessities.*
A menu consisting of mulled wine and beautifully presented appetizers can make your
holiday gatherings truly special. Consider these tips from food stylist and loyal ALDI shopper
Janice Stahl:
n
n
n
Choose a Theme: Introduce a conversation-starter and create excitement amongst
guests by choosing a party theme. Host a
“Winter White” party that asks guests to
wear only white and offer white and
sparkling wines and light-colored foods
like shrimp, cheeses and shortbread
cookies for dessert.
Set the Mood: Decorate to create an
ambiance that goes with your theme. Bring
a winter wonderland indoors with artificial
snow sprinkled on tabletops and evergreen
branches painted gold and silver placed
throughout to create an experience for
guests that goes beyond a typical dinner
party.
Dress Up Your Cheese Tray: Put together
a simple but spectacular cheese platter by
providing a selection of 3–5 cheeses that
have different textures and tastes. Soft
cheese, like goat, pairs well with crackers
and semi-hard cheese, like manchego, can
stand up to the flavors of tangy jams or
jellies. Serve smoked cheeses with nuts,
such as walnuts, and aged cheeses, like
Parmesan, with fresh, crisp vegetables
Shrimp DeJonghe Bites

such as celery or cucumber to highlight
the flavors that develop during the aging
process.
Infuse European Charm: Create your
own unique version of European mulled
wine, a classic combination of red wine
and spices that warm together to make a
festive drink. Add a bit of French flair by
serving savory crepes as an appetizer or
sweet crepes for dessert.
DIY Dessert: Create a candy buffet in
lieu of serving dessert. Use clear glass
containers to hold a variety of chocolates,
sweets and hard candies, mixing and
matching different shapes and sizes for an
eye-catching display. Provide small bags
and twist ties so guests can customize their
dessert and even take some home for later.
These simple tips and affordable, easy-tomake recipes will help you get ready for
the holidays. Visit www.aldi.us for more
entertaining ideas.

The Exciting New World of
Implant Supported Dentures
• Has the Security of a Fixed Bridge! • Easier to Maintain Good Oral Hygiene
There are millions of people in the U.S. who are edentulous (meaning without teeth) who struggle daily with dentures.
A majority suffer from discomfort as a result of loose or illfitting dentures. Many prosthetic wearers simply withdraw from any
type of social engagement as a result of having to wear their dentures.
Lower dentures almost never fit properly. They are loose fitting due to less surface area which can’t create a suction, shrinking
gum tissue and bone loss, which can cause irritation in the mouth, sores and pain. The only relief is using sticky dental
adhesive to help it, but it is very messy, hard to clean off and needs multiple applications throughout the day.
Upper dentures are better than lower dentures due to a suction in the upper palate that keeps the denture in place.
However, having the palate covered reduces the tastes of foods and the ability to tell the temperature of foods.
Partial Dentures can be a source of discomfort due to lack of supporting teeth or an illfitting partial. Partials also use clasps
to secure to existing teeth which can be noticeable and can put added pressure to the existing teeth.
Now there is a solution
to these issues, Implants
with “Snap On” Dentures!

Attachments to a Denture
$1500 Off
Whether you are new to dentures or have worn them for years, a snap on denture is a great solution to
uncomfortable chewing and slippery painful dentures. There are several types of snap on dentures available,
including snap on partials. We make your denture or partial fit and function in harmony with the space available in
your mouth, and give custom attention to the delicate fabrication of your snap on denture.
A snap on denture gets some support from the implants that it snaps onto. Unlike conventional dentures that rest
on the gums, a snap on denture is anchored to multiple implant snaps and is therefore much more stable and
comfortable.
Two or more implant snaps can be used on the upper and/or lower jaw. The more snaps that are placed, the more
stable the denture will be. Much like a four legged chair would be more stable than a three or two legged chair, the
use of denture snaps keep the denture stable, secure and comfortable. These snaps are designed with different
levels of retention, customized to the needs of the patient. When the snaps wear out, replacing them is a simple and
inexpensive procedure.
If you already wear a conventional denture or partial denture, we can sometimes use your denture to accommodate
the snaps to fit on your new dental implants.
If you are interested in learning more about improving your quality of life
with an implant retained snap on denture or partial, please contact us for a
FREE CONSULTATION today!
