[ gps ] proceed to the designated route. not today. [ male announcer ] for patients currently well managed on warfarin, there is limited information on how xarelto® and warfarin compare in reducing the risk of stroke. xarelto® is just one pill a day taken with the evening meal. plus, with no known dietary restrictions, jim can eat the healthy foods he likes. do not stop taking xarelto®, rivaroxaban, without talking to the doctor who prescribes it as this may increase the risk of having a stroke. get help right away if you develop any symptoms like bleeding, unusual bruising, or tingling. you may have a higher risk of bleeding if you take xarelto® with aspirin products, nsaids or blood thinners. talk to your doctor before taking xarelto® if you have abnormal bleeding. xarelto® can cause bleeding, which can be serious, and rarely may lead to death. you are likely to bruise more easily on xarelto® and it may take longer for bleeding to stop. tell your doctors you are taking xarelto® before any planned medical or dental procedures. before starting xarelto®, tell your doctor about any conditions such as kidney, liver, or bleeding problems. xarelto® is not for patients with artificial heart valves. jim changed his routine. ask your doctor about xarelto®. once a day xarelto® means no regular blood monitoring -- no known dietary restrictions. for more information and savings options, call 1-888-xarelto or visit goxarelto.com. time for "the pulse." we start with evidence that miss america is going modern. exhibit "a." forget the red bikini. check out the ink on miss kansas. it's right there. theresa vail is her name. >> she showed it off in the first round of the preliminaries. vail is a student of kansas state. he's been a member of kansas' national guard for five years. >> they supported her. vail said she would be a hypocrite. i am who i am, tattoos and all. a hawaiian woman is refusing a rare request by officials in her home state to shorten her name. >> that's because janice's last name, which i will not attempt to pronounce as 36 letters. the last letter can't fit on the driver's license. and there's not room for her first or middle name. janice has been asked to use some of the letters. >> janice is saying no can do. she wants to keep the name in honor of her husband, who passed away. hawaii is now considering extending the number of characters allowed on a license. >> i'm going to try that -- >> wow. >> that's pretty good. >> what the heck? finally, unexpected cat-like reflexes in the stands at a baseball game. >> you can't call this cat-like reflexes. the giants playing the rockies. you're going to get a look at it here. >> watch it in slow-mo. >> watch when it c comes in slow-motion. the batter fouls one off. a look at who caught it. here's how she catches it. she didn't get up. >> landed in the glove. >> just landed in her glove. that's okay. she had her glove out. made the catch. >> we mentioned, one more time, she's 70 years old. >> indeed. >> awesome. by the look after it, they may have been celebrating a little belated st. patrick's day. >> and she had a -- she caught it. maybe not. >> i used to wear my glove to the baseball games. met games at shea stadium, waiting for that ball. never once. >> you had a chance. >> i know. i have to keep trying until i'm 70. eventually, one will land right in my glove. >> you're actually going to a game soon, right? >> friday. >> take your glove. you never know. >> i'm inspired. >> we all are. would you mind if i go ahead of you? instead we had someone go ahead of him and win fifty thousand dollars. congratulations you are our one millionth customer. nobody likes to miss out. that's why ally treats all their customers the same. whether you're the first or the millionth. if your bank doesn't think you're special anymore, you need an ally. ally bank. your money needs an ally. ♪ [ jen garner ] what skincare brand is so effective... so trusted... so clinically proven dermatologists recommend it twice as much as any other brand? neutrogena®. recommended by dermatologists 2 times more than any other brand. now that's beautiful. neutrogena®. ♪ down to a science. you're the reason we reformulated one a day women's. a complete multivitamin that now has extra b vitamins, which help convert food to energy. energy support for the things that matter. that's one a day women's. would you cross a street? would you cross an ocean? would you go if you could use your knowledge to teach someone and, in the process, maybe learn something yourself? life is calling. how far will you go? peace corps. hey. look at mommy. dad: maybe the light hurts his eyes. mom: maybe she's just not hungry. look. maybe it's a phase. announcer: avoiding eye contact is one early sign of autism. learn the others today. >> live from the kgo-tv broadcast center this is abc7 news. >> good thursday morning at 4:28. thanks for joining us. >> on this thursday, friday eve, according to mike nicco. >> you like the sound of that?

>> we have clear conditions so far. we do have construction as we take you into oakland and alameda, the tunnel is closed until 5:00 for road work. if you travel out of alameda and oakland, clear conditions but slowing on 880 northbound. it is creating a bottleneck causing bumper-to-bumper traffic eric and kristen? >> more commuter news. bart and a key union resume negotiations with renewed pressure. halfway through a cooling-off period the two sides seem to be making little progress toward another strike. abc7 news reporter matt keller is at the fremont station. >> bart and officials will meet but rather than talking of the big issues they will focus on the small stuff. bart and the union are scheduled to meet to negotiate supplemental provisions. the big stuff -- salary and benefits -- are not going to be discussed until week. management said they need to take into account replacing of costs for parts and investment of expansion. unions say this is a pay cut and employees are forceed to pay more for health benefits. if no deal is reached another strike could begin october 11 and the governor will be powerless. bart riders want them to come to a deal because of the problems a strike creates for them on the commutes.
