(AP) — Nevada's bear hunting season opened on Sunday with no reports of any bears taken, but state wildlife officials confirm two were killed by cars. One, a cub, was struck in Incline Village. The other, a 5year-old female, was killed in Verdi west of Reno. Nevada Department of Wildlife spokesman Chris Healy says this is the time of year when bear activity is on the rise. Forty-five tags have been issued for the hunting season running Sept. 15 to Dec. 31, or until the statewide quota of 20 bears is reached. Eleven were killed last year and 14 were bagged during Nevada's first bear hunting season in 2011. Judge rules for California city in mortgage suit SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — A judge has dismissed a lawsuit over a Northern California city's plan to use eminent domain to seize underwater mortgages. U.S. District Court Senior Judge Charles Breyer ruled Monday that the lawsuit was premature because the city of Richmond had not yet approved the plan. Wells Fargo & Co., Deutsche Bank AG and The Bank of New York Mellon sued Richmond after city officials began discussing plans to use eminent domain to seize the mortgages and offer them back to homeowners at cheaper rates. The banks want to stop Richmond from seizing the loans.

Immigrants prepare for reform, beware of fraud SANTA ANA (AP) — Immigration reform is stalled in Congress but that's not stopping immigrants from contacting lawyers, filling out paperwork and making other preparations in hopes of getting a head start should laws change. That's got some advocates concerned that immigrants, who have been duped before by unscrupulous attorneys and others, could be snookered again. California lawmakers last week passed a bill to ban the practice of charging fees for services related to immigration reform before Congress passes an overhaul. Immigrant supporters are warning people to be wary of anyone — lawyers, immigration consultants or ''notarios'' — who offers to help fill out paperwork for a still-non-existent legalization program. Yet many are also urging immigrants to make sure their personal documents are in order now, saying there could be long lines at consular offices for passports and other paperwork. ''If you start planning for it the day it passes, you are probably going to be too late,'' said Daniel Sharp, legal director at the Central American Resource Center in Los Angeles. Immigration is one of President Barack Obama's top priorities for his second term, but a reform bill faces an uncertain future in Congress. With an estimated 11 million immigrants in the country illegally, a broad overhaul could mean millions of people would be seeking legal services and consular documents and filing paperwork with the U.S. government. Immigrants, especially those who are newcomers and speak little English, have been conned in the past, most infamously by so-called ''notarios,'' who try to earn their trust with a term that carries hefty legal weight in many Latin American countries. Such scams not only sap immigrants of their hard-earned cash but could even wind up getting them deported. To steer immigrants clear of fraud, the Mexican government has started a free hotline to provide information about the immigration debate. And in Los Angeles, officials said they are investigating websites that claim to help immigrants get their legal papers even though no legislation has passed. The California bill, if signed into law by Gov. Jerry Brown, would also crack down on those billing themselves as ''notarios.'' ''Everybody wants to be first in line but there's no line to get in,'' said the bill's author, Assemblywoman Lorena Gonzalez, D-San Diego. The State Bar pushed hard for the legislation, over the cries of immigration attorneys, fearing the rampant fraud that has long been a problem in immigration services could bankrupt a fund created to compensate clients duped by crooked lawyers. Should an immigration bill pass, advocates say, immigrants may only have a year to submit an application. Some advocates say it's too soon to see a lawyer, and certainly too early to shell out large sums of money to get ready for immigration reform. Immigrants can better spend their time obtaining their children's school records and collecting documents to prove their residence like rental agree- ments and car loans, said Jorge-Mario Cabrera, a spokesman for the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights of Los Angeles. Lawyers say they can help now by running background checks and potentially find that immigrants are eligible for other benefits, which has occurred with young people trying to stay in the U.S. legally under an Obama administration program, said Reed Trautz, director of the American Immigration Lawyers Association's practice and professionalism center. Ric Inzunza, a former deputy commissioner for the Immigration and Naturalization Service who now lives in Mississippi, said he doesn't see a problem with getting started now. Inzunza said he started RIA International five years ago to be the go-to place for legalization services once immigration reform passes, adding that many immigrants turned in ill-prepared paperwork during the 1980s-era legalization. For now, he collects a non-refundable $300 fee from immigrants to prepare an internal application that outlines their history in the country. If reform passes, it would take another $2,700 for his company to finish and file their application with federal authorities. ''You can't send an application to Homeland Security or a program that isn't implemented yet, but that doesn't mean you can't get your ducks lined up,'' Inzunza said, adding that the Starkville, Miss., company has signed up 13 clients to date. In California, should Gonzalez's bill become law, immigration attorneys say they want to ensure they can still run background checks for clients before reform passes, insisting it is crucial for immigrants to know where they stand with federal authorities regardless of what happens in Congress. THE PASSING PARADE (From Dave Minch's I Say column circa 1942) I was very glad to have Mr. and Mrs. Grant Wilcox see our plant Sunday. While we were in the grocery business, Mr. Wilcox was very kind to me. He not only gave me a lot of business when he was running his own sheep, but once when another man had leased his sheep, and could not pay his large grocery bill, I went to Mr. Wilcox and asked him what I should do about it. He must have realized how much we needed the money, for he took out his checkbook and paid the bill right there. I think many men in Red Bluff could tell similar stories of his kindness to them. *** Friday's S.F. Examiner had a picture of Marshall Horner and an article saying he had been elected to the Board of Directors of Roos Brothers Inc. (a men's clothing store chain). I have known him for 15 years and am very glad to see him receive this honor. His advancement proves that opportunity still exists in America for those who are willing to work. In 1920 he was a salesman in one of their stores. He rose from this position as manager of a little branch store they ran on Montgomery street in San Francisco. From there he advanced to manager of their Palo Alto store, then Hollywood, Berkeley and now manager of their large store in Oakland. His very charming wife is the daughter of Joe Burt who used to operate a grocery store on Walnut (present site of Wells Fargo). *** Dug in that Indian mound again Sunday afternoon.

Instead of doing the simple thing and just setting a price that could be paid for live hogs in each locality, the regulations call for each slaughterer and jobber selling pork and pork products to sell at the prices they sold for in the first week in March. We sold dressed pork from 20 to 20 1/2 cents per pound and do not know at what price we should choose in order to sell profitably and stay out of Alcatraz. Sometimes I wonder if the men in Washington responsible for these regulations ever had any actual experience in operating a business profitably. *** One of the Sunday columnists said that President Roosevelt was married on St. Patrick's Day and has no trouble remembering that date. I'll go the columnist one better: I'll bet that the President has no trouble remembering that he is married either. And Winchell must have had a hard time filling his column yesterday.
