Berkeley to look at residential permit parking citywide
The Berkeley City Council voted unanimously Tuesday night to study whether permit parking might be needed in more residential neighborhoods throughout the city, and whether the cost to buy those permits should increase.
To be included, residents would have to opt in to the program by garnering the support of at least 51% of homes per block face. In addition, a parking survey would need to show that at least 75% of available street parking is occupied at mid-morning and mid-afternoon. Council will set the boundaries but it is residents themselves who will determine which blocks will participate.
Parking in West Berkeley, particularly around Fourth Street and the city Corporation Yard on Allston Way, has been an area of concern for officials, as are blocks near Sacramento Street where many city staff reportedly park.
The city hopes to learn — via a new environmental study — where it might make the most sense to expand the permit parking program. Berkeley currently has 14 permit (RPP) zones in central Berkeley, most of which are near commercial areas. Via the staff report, "The existing RPP zones are bounded roughly on the north by Rose, Hopkins and Eunice Streets; on the east by UC Berkeley; on the south by Woolsey and part of 62nd Street; and on the west by Sacramento and Chestnut Streets."

AC Transit rolls back Line 51 changes after pushback
Citing budgetary and scheduling constraints, along with a desire to listen to community concerns, AC Transit has removed most of the "controversial" items from its proposal to improve service on the Line 51 bus route in Berkeley.
"I think it's safe to say it contains a lot less potentially controversial items than previously," AC Transit representative Robert del Rosario told Berkeley's Transportation Commission on Thursday night.
The panel voted to recommend the current list of modifications to the Berkeley City Council, which is expected to consider the item in April. Four members of the commission were absent, with commissioners Eric McCaughrin, Darby Watson, Terry Roberts, Ghanya Thomas and Mark Humbert voting unanimously to recommend that council approve the plan. … Continue reading »
Council to consider higher rates, evening hours for some Berkeley parking meters
New metered parking rates and time limits, in effect in Berkeley since last fall in three of the city's busiest commercial areas, have made it easier for many visitors to find daytime parking, according to new data released by city staff this week. But more changes are needed to meet the city's goal of freeing up 1-2 spaces per block.
Proposed changes include slightly higher hourly rates in some areas, and a new pilot program to extend metered hours until 8 p.m. The Berkeley City Council would have to sign off on any new changes at a meeting currently scheduled for late April. … Continue reading »
Man pepper sprayed in fight over parking in Berkeley
A Berkeley man has been arrested after allegedly assaulting another man with pepper spray during a fight over parking, authorities said Monday.
Thursday, Jan. 23, shortly before 7 p.m., the two men got into a verbal altercation over parking on Delaware Street near Walnut Street, said Officer Jennifer Coats, Berkeley Police Department spokeswoman, in response to an inquiry from Berkeleyside.
"As the victim was seated in his vehicle, the suspect sprayed a substance in the victim's face," said Coats, via email. Police believe the substance was pepper spray. … Continue reading »
Center Street garage slated for demolition, expansion
Parking in downtown Berkeley may get harder before it gets easier as a new project ramps up to demolish and rebuild the Center Street garage to add hundreds of spaces, improve seismic security and incorporate "green building" standards.
The project is expected to strain parking demand downtown, where availability is often scarce already. City staff have been working to improve the parking situation via its goBerkeley campaign, which has been underway this year. Merchants have been keeping a close eye on the Center Street project and say they hope the city will be thoughtful as it moves ahead.
The five-story Center Street parking garage — which has entrances on both Addison and Center streets — has 420 spaces, ground floor retail and was built in the 1950s, according to the staff report prepared for last week's Berkeley City Council meeting. Tuesday night, as part of the consent calendar, the Council approved paying up to $1 million to a consultant who will plan and manage the project. … Continue reading »
Traffic signal upgrades planned on Line 51 route
Intersections along AC Transit's Line 51 bus route in Berkeley may see upgrades, if approved by city staff, designed to improve traffic signal timing coordination and allow signals to better recognize when vehicles are waiting for a green light.
The changes are part of a larger plan by AC Transit to speed up and improve service on Line 51. Thursday night, Berkeley's Transportation Commission approved the signal changes as Phase 1 of the project. City transportation staff said they will take a closer look at those proposals before giving AC Transit the final go-ahead.
More controversial changes under consideration — such as a new traffic light at Russell Street and College Avenue, new bus bulbs, and the removal of numerous parking spots along University and College avenues — will be considered at a later date. … Continue reading »
AC Transit's Line 51 plans get second review Thursday
Proposed changes to AC Transit's Line 51 bus service in Berkeley will come back before the city's Transportation Commission on Thursday night for a second review.
AC Transit presented its plans — designed to speed up service and make it more reliable — in October, and met with steep opposition from members of the public who criticized the agency's attempts at public outreach, decried its lack of responsiveness to local concerns, and questioned whether the proposed changes and resulting gains would be worth the hardships some community members believe they would pose.
Since the last meeting, AC Transit has posted a draft parking study that outlines proposed changes along the route in Berkeley. If approved, a handful of parking spots would be added, but another 133 — metered, unmetered, handicapped, yellow, green and white — could potentially be removed. The bulk of the removals — 99 spaces along University Avenue — would be in effect during PM peak hours only. (See the full list here.) The other spots, in the Elmwood and Southside, do not appear to be tied to a particular time of day, but AC Transit could not be reached for confirmation.
Wednesday morning, AC Transit sent out an email notice about the meeting to be held Thursday night before the Transportation Commission: "We apologize for the late advisory, but we hope a number of riders will be able to attend and give their perspective on improving this vital transportation service in Berkeley." … Continue reading »
City parking garage fees up downtown, down on Telegraph
Tuesday night, the Berkeley City Council voted to change parking rates in three city-owned garages, downtown and near the Cal campus, as part of its goBerkeley effort to change driver behavior and make it easier for visitors to find street parking.
The multi-pronged campaign has been underway since earlier this year, and has included the promotion of alternative modes of transportation — via the distribution of car-sharing memberships and free transit passes — as well as adjustments to parking meter rates and time limits downtown, south of the UC Berkeley campus and in the Elmwood.
The pilot program aims to reduce pollution, congestion and drivers circling for a spot by using what's known as demand-responsive pricing, which sets parking rates based on a supply-and-demand philosophy. The most convenient spots tend to be the most expensive and are available for shorter amounts of time, while spots further away, which are in less demand, are cheaper and can be used for longer periods. … Continue reading »

Many Berkeley parking meters now accept most coins
In the wake of public frustration and confusion after Berkeley adjusted many of its parking meters to require a minimum cash payment of 30 or 35 cents, depending on the area, the city has rolled back the changes to allow meters city-wide to register any amount from a nickel on up.
According to a city staff report prepared for a September vote by the Berkeley City Council to fix the problem, the city began hearing criticism about the meter minimum earlier this year during its goBerkeley outreach campaign to change metered parking rates and time limits in three of the city's business districts.
Members of the public said they were confused because meters were failing to register payment. Unbeknownst to some, it was because the 30- or 35-cent threshold had not been met. Putting in change that didn't register left some wondering if the meters were broken. So they were unsure whether to keep trying, find a new space, or walk away and try their luck. … Continue reading »
Merchants ask AC Transit to revise Line 51 plans
Berkeley business owners took AC Transit to task last week for what they described as the agency's failure to communicate as it moves ahead with proposed changes on the Line 51 route designed to speed up and improve bus service.
Proposed changes along the route — which are still very much in the draft stage — include possible parking space removal during peak times, the relocation or removal of some stops, the installation of "bus bulbs," and, at College Avenue and Russell Street, a new traffic signal. (See a map of the proposed changes here.)
AC Transit held two community meetings about the proposal in late August, and presented an overview of the Line 51 project to Berkeley's Transportation Commission on Thursday. AC Transit is scheduled to return to the commission in November, then go on to the Berkeley City Council in December or January. The council will ultimately need to approve the changes for them to take place. (Scroll to the bottom of this story to view maps that show each proposed change.) … Continue reading »

Metered parking changes launch Tuesday in Berkeley
After months of outreach and planning, new parking meter rules designed to change business-as-usual in three commercial districts in Berkeley go into effect Tuesday, Oct. 15.
The changes, under the moniker goBerkeley, are designed to make it easier for drivers to find parking spaces in three of the city's busiest commercial areas, and to cut down on pollution associated with circling to find a spot. The city says it hopes goBerkeley will make it easier for visitors "to dine, shop and enjoy the arts in three of the City's most vibrant districts," according to a statement released by officials last week.
The goBerkeley model is based on the concept of "demand-responsive" pricing, so that prices reflect demand in several congested areas around town. The hope is to free up one or two spaces per block, by raising or adjusting the pricing in a way that will encourage some of the people currently filling spaces to move a bit farther away or use alternative modes of transportation. The city has been studying current parking demand, and plans to analyze how the changes affect behavior.
"If it does what we hope it will – increase parking while decreasing pollution and traffic – the impact is huge," said city spokesman Matthai Chakko. … Continue reading »
Berkeley considers 'visionary' homeless housing project
Tuesday night, the Berkeley City Council took its first steps at considering a "super-green affordable housing project" that would offer extensive services to the homeless on the site of what's now a 112-spot parking lot at Berkeley Way and Henry Street.
The "innovative housing and services center with permanently supportive housing, along with emergency shelter and supportive services" would "meet a critical need, and help further the City's goals to end homelessness," according to a staff report from Tuesday's meeting.
Members of the business community have expressed concerns about the loss of parking during construction, and said the parking supply would need to be doubled to ensure that visitors to downtown, who are expected to increase as the area is revitalized, will have access to readily available spots. They noted that decreased parking already in effect or planned, with the construction of the new Berkeley Art Museum and a proposal to demolish and rebuild the Center Street garage. … Continue reading »
Parking losses, lane changes possible in Line 51 overhaul
Two community meetings are scheduled this week to collect public input on proposed changes to AC Transit's Line 51 service, which in Berkeley could include the temporary closure during peak travel hours of dozens of parking spots, the addition of three traffic signals, signal timing coordination, and more.
The city of Berkeley would have to approve many of these changes, in meetings that are set to take place this fall. Parking losses, stressed AC transit representatives, would only be in place during peak transit hours and are dependent on public feedback.
Line 51, which runs through Berkeley, Oakland and Alameda, carries more than 19,000 people each day, and is the most used route in the East Bay, according to AC Transit. … Continue reading »

- 1/2 cup green peas
- 1/2 avocado
- 1/4 onion, chopped
- 1 garlic clove
- 1 TBSP curry paste
- 1 TBSP coconut oil
- Heat coconut oil in a fry pan on medium
- Once the oil is melted, add the onion and garlic
- Meanwhile, thaw the spinach in the microwave for approx. 4 min
- Once the onion and garlic are fragrant, about 5 min of cooking, add the peas and spinach
- Stir in the curry paste
- Heat through for about 5 minutes
- Top with avocado
Now if you feel jipped on my WIAW post here is a quick and dirty overview of my eats, which pretty much stay the same every single day.

Snack – apple + almonds
Lunch – Big green salad + pitted dates
Snack – carrots + pepperoni stick

Happy Wednesday!

Tears are falling from my eyes, like raindrops… I've fought with them for so long and now I have finally set them free.
I used to cage my feelings up inside tight like ball of twine and now I'm able to slowly relinquish them one tear drop at a time.
I'm still clutching my cure close to my chest, and yet I seem to realize that maybe someday I can really be free from the chains that I've bond myself too, so very long ago...
Hello there.

Helmeted or Marsh Terrapin (Pelomedusa subrufa)
I recently had a good sighting of one of these guys, I read up on them and found some info that I found very interesting.
Marsh/Helmeted Terrapins are omnvorous, they eat almost anything, including water weed, insects and frogs. In some regions they act like crocodiles, they ambush, drown and then devour doves and sand grouse drinking at the water's edge.
The female lays her eggs (10-35) in a flask shaped pit which she digs with her hind feet in soft soil, if the ground is too hard she will urinate to soften it.

text: Man.......how much more FUBAR can this situation get? http://thinkprogress.org/2007/02/25/hersh-qaeda/ There has been some violence. So America, my country, without telling Congress, using funds not appropriated, I don't know where, by my sources believe much of the money obviously came from Iraq where there is all kinds of piles of loose money, pools of cash that could be used for covert operations. All of this should be investigated by Congress, by the way, and I trust it will be. In my talking to membership — members there, they are very upset that they know nothing about this. And they have great many suspicions. We are simply in a situation where this president is really taking his notion of executive privilege to the absolute limit here, running covert operations, using money that was not authorized by Congress, supporting groups indirectly that are involved with the same people that did 9/11, and we should be arresting these people rather than looking the other way… BLITZER: And your bottom line, Sy… HERSH: … and could lead to a real mess… BLITZER: Your bottom line is that Negroponte was aware of this, obviously, and he wanted to distance himself from it? That is why he decided to give up that position and take the number two job at the State Department? HERSH: He — that is one of the reasons, I was told. Negroponte also was not in tune with Cheney. There was a lot of complaints about him because he was seen as much of a stickler, too ethical for some of the operations the Pentagon wants to run.

Father Yod and the Source Family
The Thought Adjusters
(Drag City)
This two-LP set features the music of James Edward Baker (aka Father Yod, or YaHoWa), a business owner and spiritual commune leader in California during the late '60s and early '70s, and comes from a batch of previously unreleased recordings made before Yod's 1975 death. Known as the Source Family, Yod's commune ran a health food restaurant by day but dabbled in psychedelic rock at night, resulting in the the band YaHoWha 13 as well this lo-fi collection of demos and jams. Though the sound is sometimes hampered by persistent static, lengthy freakouts like "Sleepy Heads" and "Osiris/ Isis" reach surprising heights amidst tribal drumming and chanted vocals. Yod's words resemble stream of consciousness sermons focusing on love, unity and energy. It's an inside look at the West Coast coming down from the summer of love. —Michael Cimaomo
The Catbirds
catbirds say yeah
The Catbirds describe themselves on their website as contributors to the "general din" of "noisy bands," but the music of Catbirds Say Yeah is a well-defined noise rather than a cacophonous assault on the ears. Rock laced with elements of blues and jazz keeps the album varied and engaging. Every song is led by vocals, often dual, that ride atop energetic bass and drum beats. The band members add to the noise with diverse individual talents—Dinty Child, Chandler Travis and Steve Wood sing and play guitar; Child also performs on the mandocello; and Travis plays bass. The Catbirds formed in 2010 to "fight the war on boring and get all you people moving again" through rhythm and blues, rock and roll and "crazy loud stupid stuff." Catbirds Say Yeah certainly keeps the boring at bay, with a well-defined—and loud—sound. —Patrick Kelley
Gato Libre
Gato Libre, as you might well not expect from the name, is a Japanese ensemble. The group began as a bass/trumpet duo, then became a quartet with guitar and accordion. The group's music sounds like a stroll along a long-lost cobblestoned street, a gritty and ever-changing tour of discordant sounds, spacious single-note passages, and deeply introspective moments broken up by stretches of clearly defined melody. It's not quite jazz, but it's jazzy in approach; it's similarly coy in its relationship to world music traditions, creating something that's not easily attached to any particular time or locale. The musicianship is self-assured throughout, comfortable with minimalist tendencies, moving and mysterious. It's a rewarding and evocative listen throughout. Track 6, "Japan," contains a strange treat: the musicians explain that, at the performance, audience and band heard a mysterious repeating tone—in key, no less—of unknown provenance, possibly the interaction of the band's sound with the space. —James Heflin

Can you handle the flannel?
The real question is, can the flannel handle you? Although the 686 Women's Reserved Tonic Insulated Jacket looks like some casual shirt you'd wear out to get coffee on a Saturday, it's really quite the tough puppy. For all but the worst winter conditions, this street-style outer layer can most definitely handle your moves and your favorite shred spots. The polyester brushed plaid face has been treated with infiDRY moisture-fighting technology; by wicking moisture on the inside and blocking the entrance of water particles on the outside, the infiDRY is able to keep you dry from multiple angles, making the Reserved Tonic both breathable and waterproof.

When it comes to finding cheap flights, we have quite a bit to share with you. You see, we go through a lot of flight searches every day, and we have learned a few things that are good to keep in mind when searching for the cheapest flight available. Below you'll find 5 great tips.
1. Fly on Tuesdays or Wednesdays
Most people fly on Fridays and back on Sunday. This means that more seats tend to be available on Tuesdays and Wednesdays and so you are more likely to find the cheapest seats on these days.
2. Only use carry-on
Many airlines are charging extra for luggage, so pack everything you can into your carry-on bag. Luggage is overrated anyway. Who needs more than a pair of jeans and a toothbrush anyway?
3. Use the low-cost airlines.
The low-cost airlines are your friends. Well, not really, but they are the cheapest way to fly. easyJet, RyanAir, Vueling, Norwegian, WOW air…. the list goes on and on. And they are all to be found on Dohop.
4. Combine low-cost airlines
Don't just use one low-cost airline. It may be cheaper for you to fly with Ryanair to Alicante and then with Norwegian back, than it is to fly both ways with either one. Check out this search result to see for yourself.
5. Book 3 months in advance
Flight prices very rarely go down. It is always best for you to book as soon as possible, because the cheapest seats on the airplane are the ones that go first. So book early.
Secret extra tip: check Dohop Away for super-low flights from the airport of your choice.

Jackie's perfect pitch piano skills place her in demand as an accompanist, but her vocals and songwriting elevate her musicality to an even higher level. Be prepared to hear angels singing along with this gifted duo. Light refreshments and product sale follow the concert.

Connection to millennia of tradition begins at a small shop in Laguna Hills for many Jews.
• Passover is one of the most important holidays in Judaism. The weeklong holiday or festival starts Monday at sundown.
• It commemorates the emancipation of Israelites from slavery in ancient Egypt. It is said they left so quickly, they did not wait for their bread dough to rise. As a reminder, Jews avoid eating all chametz, or leavened bread products, during Passover.
• Passover's most popular custom is the Seder meal with its traditional food, stories, ceremonies and blessings.
• The Seder is a meal typically eaten the first two nights of Passover. It is considered the highlight of the Passover holidays. It often lasts two to three hours, including prayer, song, blessings and retelling the story of the Israelites' liberation from slavery.
• Participants take turns reading from a 14-section script called the Haggadah.
• Symbolic foods at the Seder include shank bones, matzo (unleavened bread products), hard-boiled eggs and horseradish.
• Families often open their home to others in the community or synagogue with no place to celebrate the holidays.
LAGUNA HILLS – It's tradition.
Each year about this time, a steady stream of people seek out a tiny deli almost hidden behind a Big Lots.
From all over Orange County they come, passing the window sign that reads: "Be nice or leave, thank you," in search of a woman who's been up all night cooking.
They come for food, but leave with something more.
"A connection," says grandmother Carole Linker, of Laguna Woods. "A feeling of belonging."
Linker and other patrons open their bags to show homemade charoset (a paste of fruit and nuts), macaroons, chopped herring and the hard-to-find but oh-so-necessary shank bone – all staples of the Jewish Passover, which begins at sundown Monday.
For many of Orange County's estimated 100,000 Jews, the countdown to Passover starts right here in the Kosher Bite Deli. Because here they find what are called "kosher for Passover" foods, prepared according to ancient customs.
Deli owner Maryann Goldberg has spent all week following those old customs – cleaning her shop of all leavened grain known as chametz – and using separate pots, pans, mixing bowls and utensils for her homemade Passover food.
"We clean like crazy," she says, "to ensure that there is no chance of foods prepared kosher-for-Passover to come in contact with chametz."
That brings customers like Alex Ribakoff, of Irvine, back every year, for so long he can't even remember.
He shouts to Goldberg behind the counter serving another customer: "How many years have I been coming here?"
"Since both our kids were cute!" she hollers back, laughing, before they figure it out – 22 years.
On this trip – Ribakoff's second of the week – he's buying a "boatload" of kosher-for-Passover meat, a quart of chicken soup and three matzo balls that he describes as the size of softballs.
They are part of what makes Passover so special to him.
"To me, emotionally, Passover is the biggest holiday of the year," he says. "I feel connected to every Jew throughout time, throughout the world. We all do this and have been doing this for thousands of years."

Recent musings
February 25, 2010 - John Stack
I guess the party of NO didn't recognize what they were getting in Scott Brown or the Tea Partyers. As (again) the GOP tried to filibuster a Democrat (and somewhat bipartisan) bill, Scott Brown stood up and voted against the filibuster! Maybe he needs some indoctrination education, eh?
I can't wait for the next presidential election cycle. If only to have another year of anticipation of Sarah Palin's next inane utterance, and the lemmings that see her as the oracle. Her latest is to take Rahm Emanuel to task for using the word 'retard' in a private conversation. She is demanding that the WHITE HOUSE CHIEF OF STAFF resign for using a term she objects to. Exactly what would that accomplish? Here is Rahm Emanuel at a press conference "Today, I have chosen to resign my position as I used a term that was offensive to Sarah Palin. I can't go on knowing she is upset about this, and I cannot fulfill my duties with this stain. I mean, I can understand lying to a federal grand jury about a covert CIA agent, or outing such agent. Or firing of lawyers for not being political enough. That's small potatoes. Plus, Rush Limbaugh was able to use the term, but I'm told Sarah Palin considered Rush calling liberals retards an acceptable form of satire. As with all politics, its only bad if someone from the other party says it.
On the good side, the Olympics have been great. Andrew Weibrecht took a bronze in a sport most of us have at least tried and care about. Bode finally got his gold (and silver and bronze) in his first Olympics where there were no expectations. The US beat the Canadians at hockey , in what I don't think is such a great upset at the Canadian apologists claim. Hey! The US is in the hockey medal round! It wasn't a fluke! Watching the women's bobsled last night was about true sport. The US got a bronze and they were ecstatic. The Canucks got gold and silver – and were unabashedly elated. It was a welcome sight after the whinings of Nancy Kerrigan and the like who only care when they are the best, and even then, as a coronation.
The Plattsburgh girls hockey team just doesn't get the recognition they deserve. Again, they are ranked number one in the nation in Div 3. Still, no one goes to their games. I am also to blame, as I only went to one college game this year, and it was in Potsdam (my alma mater) against Plattsburgh. I had to boo the home ice when, rather than come out with a Zamboni, they had an Olympia! The same type as those that ruined the ice and broke down for the speed skaters. (Plus, I gotta represent for my favorite band, The Zambonis). Speaking of the Zambonis, the Chevastack production crew is hard at work on a documentary of this awesome band. Like Gretzky is roundly acknowledged as the greatest hockey player ever, the Zambonis are hands down the greatest hockey band in the world. I went down last week to meet some of them, and they are the best group of guys you ever want to meet.
As the ADE would say, a 'valley' would be Obama's tiptoeing about 'don't ask/don't tell' as well as gay marriage. He was voted in on a platform, a mandate, to fix these two laws as well as others. It sure is easier to be a candidate than the President. (Although that may have not been so for W – he would just ask 'What should I do, Dick (Cheney)?)
I don't often write about local politics, but… Revcently, a couple village candidates blasted Clyde Rabideau over his plans for sludge reclamation. Now, I am glad the candidates are actually taking positions on topics, but the sludge throwing was too much. Why? Well, the expert analysis done by the candidates (of the party of NO) seemed to come exclusively from an old Press Republican story. A project they claim could cost 800,000 to 1.2 million plus even more yearly costs than current, and they don't even research what type of method is being discussed or the scope of the project, but seem to just want to attach something completely unrelated from when Clyde was mayor in Plattsburgh? Its like screaming to ban cars because they read somewhere that a person had been killed by someone else driving a car. I don't know any of the candidates. I once met Clyde for 5 minutes 5 years ago at a Halloween party. But I in good conscience can't vote for people who are so fast and loose with the economic facts, especially when my village tax bill is approximately what my town, county and school taxes are COMBINED!
Mountain? For ORDA helping out all our local Olympians and doing all they can to support them. Valley – how many people knew the Olympic cauldron was burning last week? I came home from Connecticut Saturday nite passing the show grounds, and lo and behold, the torch was burning. I stopped (as well as seemingly a few dozen others who stopped to view and photograph the torch) and videoed and photographed it too. I wish there had been more publicity about this (then again, the Vancouver Olymoic Committee somehow didn't recognize that fans wouldn't be happy with the restrictions placed on the torch, of which until recently couldn't even be viewed unobstructedly by the public).
Finally, the Stanley Cup was in Placid last weekend. Yeah, the most famous iconic trophy in sport. The holy grail of hockey. I read about it Monday after it left Sunday. My hockey-addicted friends also didn't know. This is a hockey area, and it wasn't better publicized? The last time I was this close to the Coupe De Stanley was 15 years ago taking a summer class in Ithaca. A Cornell hockey player was on the cup winning team, and had it at a bar. He had it there about an hour and I missed out then. I guess some time in my life I will see it live. Until then, I can only hope our paths cross serendipitously and one of the top 10 on my bucket list will be crossed off.

Cavanagh et al v. Northern New England Benefit Trust
Filing 10
ORDER denying 3 Motion to Remand to State Court. So Ordered by Magistrate Judge Landya B. McCafferty.(gla)
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF NEW HAMPSHIRE Robert V. Cavanagh and Rhoda M. Cavanagh v. Civil No. 12-cv-394-LM Northern New England Benefit Trust O R D E R In a case that has been removed from the New Hampshire Superior Court, Robert and Rhoda Cavanagh have petitioned for a declaratory judgment. Among other things, they seek a declaration limiting the amount of the lien that may be asserted by Northern New England Benefit Trust ("NNEBT"), the sponsor of Mr. Cavanagh's employee-benefit plan, against his $200,000 recovery from a third-party tortfeasor whose negligence resulted in injuries for which NNEBT paid approximately $46,000 in medical bills and disability benefits.1 Before the court is the Cavanaghs' motion to remand this case to the superior court. 1 Specifically, the Cavanaghs asked the superior court to: (1) declare that NNEBT's "liens are subject to a one-third reduction for attorney's fees incurred in recovering those liens," Notice of Removal, Attach. 1 (doc. no. 1-1), at 3; (2) "charge [NNEBT] a pro-rata share of costs incurred in recovering settlement proceeds," id.; and (3) determine "the full and fair value of [their] claims so that the recoveries of all parties may be equitably apportioned," id. NNEBT objects. For the reasons that follow, the Cavanaghs' motion to remand is denied. In its notice of removal, NNEBT observed that the medical and disability benefits it paid, and which underlie the lien it has asserted, were provided under an employee-benefit plan regulated by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA"). For that reason, it argues that the Cavanaghs' requests for relief are preempted by ERISA, see 29 U.S.C. § 1144(a), which gives this court subject-matter jurisdiction over them and makes removal proper. In their motion for remand, the Cavanaghs agree that NNEBT provided benefits to Mr. Cavanagh pursuant to an ERISA-governed employee-benefit plan. Their argument for remand goes like this: (1) Mr. Cavanagh's NNEBT benefit plan does not cover expenses for which a plan beneficiary has received payment from a third-party tortfeasor, see Notice of Removal, Ex. A (doc. no. 1-2), at 35; (2) when NNEBT has paid expenses that later become uncovered expenses due to a beneficiary's recovery from a thirdparty tortfeasor, the plan's subrogation provision allows NNEBT to recover those uncovered expenses from its beneficiary, see id.; and (3) because the plan does not cover expenses for which a beneficiary has received compensation from a third-party tortfeasor, the plan's subrogation provision "create[s] rights 2 as to subjects that are not covered by the Plan," Pet'r's Mem. of Law (doc. no. 3-1), at 3, which makes the subrogation provision "legally untenable," id. What is legally untenable is the Cavanaghs' argument against preemption. ERISA . . . preempts state laws to the extent that they "relate to any employee benefit plan" governed by ERISA. 29 U.S.C. § 1144(a). Thus, "[e]xpress ERISA preemption analysis . . . involves two central questions: (1) whether the plan at issue is an 'employee benefit plan' [within ERISA] and (2) whether the cause of action 'relates to' this employee benefit plan." Hampers v. W.R. Grace & Co., Inc., 202 F.3d 44, 49 (1st Cir. 2000) (internal quotation marks omitted). Colonial Life & Accident Ins. Co. v. Medley, 572 F.3d 22, 29 (1st Cir. 2009). With respect to the interplay between preemption and the issue on which the Cavanaghs base their request for relief, i.e., the extent of NNEBT's subrogation rights, the court of appeals for this circuit has explained: ERISA preempts state legislation designed to limit plans' subrogation and coordination of benefits provisions. See FMC Corp. v. Holliday, 498 U.S. 52 (1990); Travitz v. Northeast Dept. ILGWU Health and Welfare Fund, 13 F.3d 704 (3d Cir. 1994). Such preemption applies a fortiori to state common law doctrines (like the collateral source rule) which purportedly alter the benefit limitation provisions of a plan. See Pilot Life Ins. Co. v. Dedeaux, 481 U.S. 41, 52-57 (1987) (precluding both state claims to recover benefits under an ERISA plan and state claims to recover compensation for harms suffered because of improper denial of such benefits). 3 LaRocca v. Borden, Inc., 276 F.3d 22, 30 (1st Cir. 2002) (parallel citations omitted). Turning to the first requirement for preemption, the Cavanaghs concede that Mr. Cavanagh's NNEBT-sponsored plan is an employee-benefit plan governed by ERISA. As for the second requirement, their cause of action relates to NNEBT's right to subrogation, which is a topic directly addressed by Mr. Cavanagh's ERISA-governed benefit plan. While it is true that injuries for which a plan beneficiary receives compensation from a third-party tortfeasor are not a risk that is covered by the plan, NNEBT's right to recover from a plan beneficiary who has recovered from a third-party tortfeasor is most assuredly a subject that is expressly covered by the plan. Thus, the issues raised in the Cavanaghs' petition are completely preempted by ERISA. See Colonial Life, 572 F.3d at 29. Accordingly, this court has subject-matter jurisdiction over their petition, which makes removal proper. See Metro. Life Ins. Co. v. Taylor, 481 U.S. 58, 66-67 (1987); Levine v. United Healthcare Corp., 402 F.3d 156, 161-63 (3d Cir. 2005) (affirming district court's denial of motion to remand beneficiary's claim against ERISAgoverned employee-benefit plan to recover money paid to plan in satisfaction of plan's subrogation claim); Arana v. Ochsner Health Plan, 338 F.3d 433, 440 (5th Cir. 2003) (holding that 4 declaratory judgment action challenging lien asserted by ERISAgoverned employee-benefit plan was properly removed to federal court); Singh v. Prudential Health Care Plan, Inc., 335 F.3d 278, 292 (4th Cir. 2003) (affirming trial court's denial of motion for remand where beneficiary of ERISA-governed employeebenefit plan sought "return of a plan benefit unreduced by subrogation"). For the foregoing reasons, the Cavanaghs' motion to remand, document no. 3, is denied. SO ORDERED. __________________________ Landya McCafferty United States Magistrate Judge November 19, 2012 cc: Kenneth M. Brown, Esq. William R. Cahill, Jr., Esq. William D. Pandolph, Esq. 5

According to the publication "Songadina" of the NGO Conservation International (CI), from the perspective that human being can achieve development without harming the natural resources which provide the latter with good things and services, the CI has published two guide-books destined for actors in conservation and development.
The first one, "Torolalana amin'ny fanarenana atiala" (Forest Restoration Guide), describes, among other things, the different criteria and important steps required to identify species, land and appropriate restoration techniques to ensure the sustainability of the action. Indeed, the restoration of forest and natural resources is conducted in many ways, including the transfers of natural resource management to local communities and particularly to the contractual management of Forest (GCF).
The second guide, "Torolalana Momba tetikasa velontena" (Autonomous Project Guide), in its turn, helps the practitioner or the actor of development to choose the most appropriate approaches and activities for a sustainable livelihood activity. Both guides are very useful for conservation and development actors working around forest areas in the restoration of degraded forests or the interdependency of forests.
