A little about me...
Enjoy being outdoors, don't mind yardwork, love walks, going out for dinner or a show, like traveling and exploring remote places. Not really into "touristy' kind of places. I come from a military family and really had no home until my late teens. I like having a place to call home but every once in a while the urge to go somewhere hits me. Usually a drive through town or around the countryside cures that and I'm back to being content again:-)
About the one I'm looking for...
Looking for a friend, someone honest and trustworthy, someone who laughs and jokes, likes holding hands. I'd love to meet a friend for coffee or to go to a show or just take a lazy drive.
I'd just like to add...
I like to talk and I like being around people who like to talk. There were 7 in my family growing up and we all talked a lot! Sometimes loudly, but then that was usually the only way we could be heard over the others. But on the other hand, I like quiet and stillness too.

Getting down to the wire on this season of Top Chef ... and I have to say, finally an episode that I was literally on the edge of my seat and kind of nauseous while watching. Talk about an episode for chefs. Jesus, the chef star power in that room is enough to make anyone want to throw up. Thomas Keller (basically the closest thing to God we have in the cooking world), Daniel Boulud, Traci Des Jardins, Gavin Kaysen ... I mean, I could go on and on and on. I have been fortunate in my career to have the opportunity to work with a few of those chefs and I'll tell you, the intimidation factor is high. I couldn't even imagine having to come up with a silver mirrored platter of food for that table. I was very impressed by all the chefs in this episode just for pulling it off! From my experience, doing intricate platters like that are really something you either do once or twice in culinary school and probably never again, unless of course you are part of a culinary competition and compete on a regular basis. Most chefs who work day to day in restaurants never have to create platters like these, and I know I would have been incredibly nervous going into the elimination. I am glad it was this season and not my season, because to be quite honest, I think the caliber of chefs this season could handle a challenge like this better then the chefs on my season (including myself). I am the first to admit when I don't know how to do something, and this would have definitely not been my game.
For the Quickfire, I really enjoyed the idea of stuffing meat inside meat inside meat. We all know how I feel about my meat given the last few weeks of blogging, and I think it's awesome when you get to shove one meat inside another. I really loved Eli's idea of the Scotch egg. But I think it was because it was so homey and down to earth. I have to say, I am a big, big fan of no-frills food, perhaps the reason a detail-oriented mirrored platter does not appeal to me in the slightest. I have always been that girl who would rather eat a can of chicken noodle soup then go out for a fancy dinner (throw knives at me now. It's OK. I know, I know...), but it's true; for the most part I like simple, not necessarily simple in flavor, but just simple in terms of fuss. I like food to be clean, and to make sense, and I think that's why I find myself gravitating to Kevin this year. That guy makes some serious no-nonsense delicious-sounding food that always seems to impress. He's my kind of chef. Out of all the chefs, I think his restaurant would be the one I would seek out if and when I had time to go out to eat (or time to go to Atlanta for that matter). Anyway, back to the Quickfire. I am starting to really, really not like the brothers V. I think they are both so incredibly talented, but they have the personalities of a wet rag. Why can't the two of them crack a smile, lighten up a little? I get that it's a competition. Believe me, I get it, but great cooks with crappy personalities make TV a wee bit boring. I think Micheal definitely did not grasp the concept of the Quickfire and then with his cocky comments about making a ballantine better then Team USA did I really wanted to smack him. His attitude in this episode reminded me a little of Stefan from my season ... cocky, cocky, and cocky, but at least Stefan was funny! It was hard not to take him too seriously, but these guys this year, man. I can only imagine dinner conversation at the Voltaggio house...
Micheal: "Bryan, man you really should have cooked that chicken in sous-vide a little longer. It's kind of pink and doesn't look perfect enough."
Bryan: "Well, Micheal you know I cooked it at 65 degrees for 45 minutes and it's perfect for me. It's supposed to be that way."
Micheal: "It doesn't matter. I can do it all better anyway, and NO, I won't teach you how."
Parent: "OK boys, go finish getting ready for school!"
Yeah, seriously. Micheal, that comment about how Kevin cooks food you cook on your day off? I really hope Kevin kicks your ass now in the finale just to rub your face in that one, and watch those bones buddy. You would have immediately gone home if you were actually cooking at the real Bocuse d'Or. You aren't perfect. Stop acting like you are.

text: Why the Media Hates and Fears Super PACs by John Nolte 12 Jun 2012 post a comment Share This: To begin with, you can't look at the mainstream media as a biased or out-of-touch entity. Instead, you have to look at the media for what it really is: a gaggle of left-wing operatives disguised as journalists who use objectivity and a near-monopoly to control the news and information-narrative all in an effort to damage the Right and promote the Left. As we've seen since the rise of the Internet and the media criticism that has become much of its muse, the media cannot be reasoned with, made to see the error of its ways, or shamed into doing its job honestly. This is a corrupt institution and if you love your country, the only moral approach in dealing with it should be to do whatever you can to put it out of business. And "business" is why the media fears the Supreme Court decision known as "Citizens United," a First Amendment victory that allows individuals and corporations -- through the use of the dreaded super PAC -- the right to spend as much money as they want on electioneering. Because the "business" of the media is not the dissemination of information for the public good or even commercial profit, but rather the furthering of leftist causes, what most terrifies the media is the competition for the narrative these super PACS will hopefully create. But to understand how terrified the media is of super PACs, you have to examine just how hypocritical and un-American their objections are. First off, at its very core, the media is objecting to free and unlimited political speech -- the very thing protected by the very first Amendment. The media's outrage that there are now no longer restrictions on how much money a company or individual can spend to further a political cause, is the same as expressing outrage that that most sacred of American rights -- unlimited political speech -- is no longer limited by a tyrannical government. But most hypocritically glaring is the fact that Obama, the Left, and the media (but I repeat myself) have always enjoyed many of the very same rights "Citizens United" has now given to everyone -- but they wanted those rights all to themselves. Prior to "Citizens United," a private or public sector union (funded with our tax dollars) could pretty much spend as much as they desired on electioneering (almost 100% of it benefiting the left) -- a right not extended to the company that hired these union workers or those among us not in a union. Fact: In 2008, unions spent hundreds of millions of dollars to elect Obama. Fact : In 2008, you heard almost no media outcry against all of that "outside money affecting elections." Today, that's all you hear, especially after a Republican victory like the one last week in Wisconsin. Prior to "Citizens United," the only corporations, big or small, allowed to spend unlimited amounts of money to push a political agenda were … media companies. ABC, NPR, CBS, NBC, MSNBC, CNN, The Washington Post, Politico, The Los Angeles Times, Boston Globe, The New York Times, and on and on, are all corporations, and in some cases, part of gargantuan multi-national corporations -- and yet before "Citizens United" not a single one lived under political spending restrictions. In other words, while NBC could spend billions through the Nightly News, the Today Show, its entertainment programming like Saturday Night Live, and MSNBC to openly shill for leftist causes, every other corporation could not. While Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert had a huge corporation (Viacom) amplifying their furthering of leftist causes, every other individual in the country had their free speech restricted. Furthermore, if you were a General Electric and owned all or part of NBC, you could openly use that branch of your corporation to spend as much money as was possible to push for left-wing causes. Think about this: pre-"Citizens United," the system was so immoral and gamed, that the purchase of a newspaper, television network, or cable news outlet is what gave you a workaround the campaign finance laws. Thanks to "Citizens United," though, what you now have are mainstream media corporations forced to compete on a level playing field with other individuals and corporations, who can now spend as much money as MSNBC and Politico and The Washington Post, etc. to affect the outcomes of our nation's politics. And this is why the media so loathes "Citizens United" and those beautiful super PACs that have blossomed as a result. This is also why the media's reactions to super PACs has been panic, lies, threats, and bullying. The media is not only openly coordinating its attacks on super PACs (with the Obama campaign), but it's also coordinating attacks on those who dare run or donate to super PACs. Politico's Maggie Haberman outing a Romney super PAC donor's silly misdemeanor criminal record isn't reporting, it's blackmail and sending a message to others that there's a price to pay for muscling into the business the corrupt media once had a monopoly on. Rather shamelessly, the media is now openly lying about the effect "Citizens United" had on Wisconsin -- lying through its teeth. The New York Times, CNN, NBC, NPR, Politico, Comedy Central, unions, and all the rest are nothing more than super PACs, and now they're mad as hell that everyone's allowed in on the game.

Stevedores end two-day strike at Brazil's Santos port
Stevedores at Brazil's key shipping port of Santos returned to work late on Wednesday, ending a two-day walkout at the country's main ports that had a limited impact on cargo movement.
The strike began unexpectedly at midday on Tuesday at the southeastern ports of Santos, Paranagua and Rio de Janeiro. But by Wednesday afternoon, workers at Santos were the only ones still reported to be striking.
Port workers were protesting reform legislation currently under debate in the Congress. The stevedores want to make sure the proposed reforms, which could allow potential new terminal investors to contract non-union labor, also protects union rights.
"We went back to work at 7 p.m. and everything will be normal", said Carlos Rodrigues Alves, secretary of the stevedores' union at the port of Santos.
The bill's aim is to attract billions of dollars in new investments by allowing private investors to manage some of the country's ports. Proponents believe that would make ports more efficient and in turn help lower the cost of doing business in Latin America's biggest economy.
The lower house of Brazil's Congress was expected to vote on the bill later on Wednesday. If approved, it will go to the Senate.
Brazilian port terminals charge some of the world's highest prices to move goods. Some of the high cost stems from labor agreements, but red tape, taxes and lack of competition between terminals are also to blame.
President Dilma Rousseff has made the bill a high priority for her push to improve Brazil's dilapidated infrastructure, which has become a drag on economic growth.
Loading was held up at 14 ships because of the strike at Santos this morning, according to the port's communication office. The ships affected were mostly carrying containers.
Typically bulk cargoes such as soy and corn are less affected by labor stoppages because they require fewer workers. The movement of container goods with perishables such as coffee, bagged sugar and meats are more vulnerable.
Shipping agent Williams said the strike did not affect the loading of bulk raw sugar at the port, but has slowed the loading of bagged sugar because of the need for stevedores.
Officials at Paranagua port said movement there returned to normal after the strike slowed operations.
Brazil is in the midst of exporting a record soy harvest, while coffee and sugar crops are due to hit its overburdened ports within weeks. (Reuters)

Hi Tim--
Not sure if this might be your Charles. I stumbled across this bit in the Alberta papers looking for some of my own folks.
This is NO RELATION to me. But when I run across something like this that could be a brick wall for someone, I try to help out where I can.
There is a Charles Driffel mentioned in the High River Times, (High River, Alberta) newspaper on May 31, 1928, p. 5. Says he had been there 13 years, and that he died of the flu. He is buried in High River. When it mentioned that he had a wife and daughter "somewhere in the US" who didn't know about his death, this looked like a challenge for someone who might be looking for him.
You can access Canadian newspapers here:
Hope this helps you!

text: First Pick of Super Bowl Champs Inducted into Hall Print article Send a Tip by Cole Muzio 4 Aug 2013 post a comment Jonathan Ogden, the first ever selection of the Super Bowl champion Baltimore Ravens after the franchise moved from Cleveland in 1996, became the first ever Hall of Fame inductee of the team currently at the top of the NFL. A massive 6'9", 345 pound tackle, Ogden anchored the Ravens' offensive line for 12 seasons until his retirement in 2007. General Manager Ozzie Newsome recognized Ogden as a key component of Baltimore's success. "He is part of the foundation of this franchise, part of the reason we have two Super Bowl championships," Newsome said. The man who drafted Ogden was the tackle's choice to do his introduction into Canton. Although Ogden was a physical specimen and immensely talented, he was quick to note that more was required to achieve his level of success. "Talent isn't enough," Ogden said. "A lot of people have talent, they don't always live up to it. For me it is about maximizing, striving for perfection." Ogden was a six time All-Pro, eleven time Pro-Bowl selection, and was instrumental in leading the Ravens to the 2000 Super Bowl victory.

Popular and widely awarded restaurateur Cindy Pawlcyn and her husband, John Watanabe, both of St. Helena, were injured when a Chevrolet Equinox SUV crossed the double line and slammed head-on into the Pawlcyn-Watanabe Lexus RX 450 on Highway 12/121 near di Rosa Preserve and Domaine Carneros Winery.
Tragically, the 4-year-old boy riding in the back seat of the Chevrolet died following the accident, and his mother is still hospitalized at Santa Rosa Memorial. Pawlcyn and Watanabe were taken to Queen of the Valley Hospital in Napa.
A native of Minneapolis, Pawlcyn has always been a giving and sharing resource and teacher. Currently she owns Mustard's Grill and Cindy's Backstreet Kitchen. She also founded Fog City Diner in San Francisco and played dominant roles in opening Tra Vigne, Pizzeria Tra Vigne, Bix, Roti, Betelnut and Buckeye Roadhouse.
Another automobile accident in 2000, in Mill Valley, led Pawlcyn to reevaluate her life and separate herself from the Real Restaurant Group's consulting firm.
Prayers and good thoughts are with everyone involved.

B&V update: A couple of friends report having tried the burger and fries at Burgers & Vine at lunch during the Sonoma International Film Festival and said it was "really good." Marisela Rodriguez of La Casa Restaurant, next door on East Spain, says Burgers & Vine are great neighbors. "We trade things all the time, if one of us runs out of something." As we hoped, La Casa's business has been helped by the active corner.
After good friend Andy Weinberger, of Readers' Books, talked me into trying his son's girlfriend's croissants at the Friday farmers market, I began to think about croissants in general and how many bakers are making them in Sonoma. A lot.
So what is a croissant, and by whose definition? First of all, croissant is the French word for crescent. We already have Crescent City in Del Norte County, home to Pelican Bay Prison and lots of fishing vessels, and New Orleans, La., sometimes referred to as "The Crescent City" when not called "The Big Easy."
"Larousse Gastronomique" (1988) defines a croissant as "a crescent-shaped roll made with puff pastry or with a leavened dough." According to Larousse, "This delicious pastry originated in Budapest in 1686, when the Turks were besieging the city. To reach the centre of the town, they dug underground passages. Bakers, working during the night, heard the noise made by the Turks and gave the alarm. The assailants were repulsed and the bakers who had saved the city were granted the privilege of making a special pastry which had to take the form of a crescent in memory of the emblem on the Ottoman flag."
The "New Food Lover's Companion" (Barron's 2013) dictionary takes the story further, saying that, "Originally the croissant was made from a rich bread dough. It wasn't until the early 1900s that a creative French baker had the inspiration to make it with a dough similar to puff pastry …"
Our taste in croissants, or anything else for that matter, depends on our past experience and what we consider to be the standard by which we compare other croissants, what kind of toothpaste we used or juice we consumed, whether we get one from the front or back of the tray (sometimes day old or fresh), whether we taste it with butter and jam, and other variables.
My personal, first, great croissant experiences were as a student in Paris, of course, where it seemed as if they were always served with butter and preserves. But maybe my memory embellishes.
Let's look at croissants alphabetically, by bakery name. They range in price from $2.15 at Scandia Bakery to $5 with ham and cheese at the Friday farmers market.
Basque Boulangerie Café offers whole wheat and standard croissants, both formed into a full circle with points, rather than a crescent. The whole-wheat version felt and tasted like bread dough, while the conventional one was properly flaky on the outside and doughy inside. Weirdly, the conventional one was still edible a week later.
Crisp Bakeshop's croissants were smaller and more concentrated than others. I tried both the plain and almond and enjoyed them immensely. They come plain, and with various fillings from chocolate to mascarpone and strawberries.
Joanne Fusco bakes croissants in the Studebaker Cheesecake kitchen. Locals have raved about her croissants, but I had trouble hitting a day when there were some. One of the days I dropped in she had already left. Both the plain and berry croissants that I bought were overly singed on the bottom.
Scandia Bakery's croissants were the largest, lightest and possibly most appealing, while also the least expensive at $2.15. The others were all in the $3 to $5 range.
Yanne Campbell'S Foxfire Bakery makes four kinds of croissants and nice, gooey, sticky buns, using organic flour, Straus cream and Petaluma butter. Campbell also rents baking time at Studebaker Cheesecake. Hers are available only at Friday's farmers market, and they weigh and taste heavier than others, but she says they are meant to, that "they are American croissants, not French ones." I guess that means with organic ham and cheese ($5). Her whole display is fun, borrowing a wood and glass case from Roger Rhoten, heating croissants to taste slowly in an old iron oven, and keeping her supplies in a vintage suitcase.
Once again, I sacrificed my body for your vicarious tasting pleasure, and was happy to do it.
Speaking of Readers' Books, more than 60 people showed up and enjoyed Mollie Katzen and her new vegetable cookbook, "The Heart of the Plate" at our Last Wednesday Food Group on Wednesday. Several attendees made delicious foods from the book and brought platters to share, a real delight for everyone that adds to the experience. To say nothing of Betsy Spann's wines and Genevieve Ladha's organic chai teas.
Readers' sold out of Katzen's books and had to dip into her reserve bag from her car. Katzen, Marcy Smothers and I treated ourselves to an early dinner at Café LaHaye, where everything is always perfect, this time meaning the swordfish and salads.
April's Last Wednesday Food Group will feature Glen Ellen's Marcy Smothers and her new book, "Snacks," also available at Readers' Books at a 15 percent discount. If you wish, find something in it that appeals to you and bring it to Readers' on Wednesday, April 30, 7 to 8:30 p.m.
Chef John Ash will bring his new book, "Culinary Birds, The Ultimate Poultry Cookbook," to our May 28 Last Wednesday Food Group at Readers'. This book just made the finals for the 2014 James Beard Awards.
Sam and Carol Morphy, at The Red Grape, have a new manager in training, Nick Mendelson, who has been working there for a couple of years and will return to college in the fall.
Executive chef Todd Thompson has created some terrific April specials and new menu items. April brings asparagus soup with crème fraiche, chives and truffle oil, raw kale salad, veggie jumbo-shell fagioli pasta shells, and prosciutto crudo pizza with a crème fraîche base, mozzarella, gouda, shaved Brussels sprouts and capers ($5.95 to $7.95).
New lunch favorites include the Italiano pizza loaded with pepperoni, salami, pepperoncini, black olives and two cheeses; a grilled salmon entrée, porcini mushroom ravioli in a mushroom sugo.
Check out the creative pea pesto and burrata bruschetta on grilled sourdough topped with watercress, which, with a salad to share, could make a great meal. You might try the grilled artichoke with new wedge salad with baby iceberg lettuce, piquillo peppers, blue cheese, Zoe's bacon and blue cheese dressing; a housemade quinoa burger with gruyere cheese, sweet potato fries and caramelized onions and a side of house-cut fries; spring pea ravioli, cavatelli pasta with asparagus, and chili garlic crab capellini made with blue crab $6.95 to $17.25.
At dinner try the new roasted airline chicken breast with whipped scallion potatoes and grilled asparagus, the new Deluxe Burger of eight ounces of wagyu beef, Bel Paese cheese, a tall stack of beer battered onion rings and a secret sauce on a brioche bun – good to share, believe me.
Wild Thyme's next Dining Club Rive Gauche will feature the cuisine of Morocco with Sonoma's Belly Dance Superstar, Natalie Tedrick, on Wednesday, April 23, at FAHA Heritage Hall. Chef Keith Filipello will make a savory filled filo, a trio of Moroccan salads with traditional Moroccan bread, lamb tagine with vegetables, couscous and chickpeas, seasonal fruit with flower water and Moroccan cookies. Moroccan food expert Paula Wolfert said Filipello's salads were "perfect" at her Vintage House fundraiser. $35. BYOW, no corkage. Reservations required at 996-0900 or wildthyme.com.

While Cameroon is peaceful compared to its volatile neighbours, its relative security means thousands of refugees flee across its border each year to escape violence back home. In recent years tens of thousands of people from Chad, the Central African Republic (CAR) and Nigeria have fled into Cameroon. Though stable, an estimated 40 percent of Cameroon's population lives below the poverty line, making it difficult to support the stream of refugees looking to rebuild their lives inside its borders.
International Medical Corps works along Cameroon's eastern border, where thousands of refugees from the CAR have settled. We provide basic health care, including maternal and child health care, immunization, and supplemental feeding services in the Djohong and Meiganga districts of the underserved Adamaoua region and Mokolo district in the Far North region. We also deliver health care via mobile medical units (MMUs) that make services available to approximately 12,000 people throughout the region. To help address the prevalence of malnutrition among refugees, International Medical Corps provides nutritional supplements to mothers and young children. We are also helping Cameroonians to strengthen local health care capacity by training traditional birth attendants and other health care providers throughout the country.
International Medical Corps has responded to deadly cholera outbreaks in northern and central Cameroon. We provided cholera responses in the Mokolo sub-division in the Far North, where the outbreak was centered and in Djohong, Meiganga and Tibati districts in Adamoua region. Our comprehensive cholera services include treatment, surveillance, water and sanitation support, infection control, social mobilization and prevention services.

Reviews for Waste Of Paint LyricsPerformed by Bright Eyes

Add Your New Review About The Song
Touching | Reviewer: bob Sharlington | 10/20/07
This song is truly amazing. It has opened my eyes to somany things. It is hands down the best song i've ever heard. It showed me how we really are wasting our lives away. And it has given me so many ideas.
Enlightmenment | Reviewer: Wolfeski | 10/11/07
I've gotten almost all of my friends that are usually more into Lynard Skynard and such into this song. Ha, its one of indie's finest hours for sure.
incredible | Reviewer: cluh | 8/27/07
one of the best songs i've ever heard. Conor Oberst is incredibly talented for his young age.
Waste of Paint | Reviewer: Jeffrey McFlanaghan | 5/2/07
Waste of Paint is an epic song about struggling with depression, lack of love, and absence of religion. Conor Oberst takes on three of the toughest subjects to write about in one song alone-- truly a feat that could only be taken on by someone like Oberst. "Waste of Paint" is possibly the deepest song on the whole "Lifted, or The Story Is in the Soil, Keep Your Ear to the Ground." Though the music is nothing special, the lyrics are phenomenally moving. Oberst has the haunting ability to make you feel as if each song is written about you. If anyone is looking for an album that has actual meaning and musical quality instead of the processed beats that major labels pump out daily, "Lifted" is soemthing that you should look into purchasing.
Amazing | Reviewer: Josh Gallagher | 3/15/07
Im not a diehard Bright eyes fan, In fact most of the music is a little to whiny, a little to sad for my daily routine, BUT, this song is mindbendingly powerful, the raw emotion of this song is unquestionable (wow thats really a word). Really great poetic music

Previously on my blog I've detailed how personal injury solicitors work – this week I thought I'd take a look at divorce law, which is slightly different to my speciality of accident claims matters – but something close to my heart nonetheless.
Domestic violence can be a traumatizing nightmare that can cause deep frustrations within the family. A party may be violent and abusive towards the other, what may start as assault may grow to grievous harm. Through an solicitor you can restrain the other party from violent conduct by obtaining compelling injunctions. In a similar vein, where you are a victim of domestic violence, your solicitor will enable you get reliefs through the courts while still restraining a spouse or the perpetrators from engaging in the deplorable acts and conduct. The solicitor may also enable you to resolve your issues by enumerating the rights and interests amicably. Grievous harm will attract charges in criminal law; your solicitor can handle the matter and file it with the relevant prosecuting authority.
There are many laws that will be invoked to tilt scales in your favor if you have a domestic violence solicitor. Certain legal principles and rules can be used to get justice for the victim of violent acts. Sometimes it can even extend to serious offences such as child molestations or sexual abuse. Getting all the charges in the prosecution's case can be enabled by a solicitor who can investigate and represent your interests in civil litigation. This will enable you get the utmost justice that would at least restore the disturbed equilibrium. On the other hand, the perpetrator may also have a solicitor; this may cause a pivotal imbalance in legal arguments.
To safeguard and enforce your inherent rights, getting a domestic violence solicitor fast as the crime has been committed is the best way. This is because you can obtain an injunction to stop the perpetrator before they can harm you grossly. There is no need for fear, if you can apprehend that the violence will persist, it would be beneficial for the family to have the perpetrator subjected to the wheels of justice. This will protect all the family members from the culprit; furthermore some punishment would be apt to restrain future violent acts. Sometimes the case may cost you lower costs if you do not wish to pursue civil litigation. Public prosecutors are also important in family violence prosecution.
A domestic violence solicitor may also be necessitated by other matters that may be as a result of the violent acts such as separation or divorce. The solicitor may also be specializing in family law issues, this may enable you to get a smooth and seamless termination of the marriage and stop further violence. The violence may also emanate from complex matters such as battery, there are remedies and reliefs that can enable you feel your rights are protected and enforced whenever they are breached by the other party. You may also need a solicitor to navigate certain troubles such as post-divorce trauma as you can obtain damages from the court to make good the loss. Through a good solicitor, if you have been injured or harmed by anyone within the family can be a great relief.

November 26, 2014
Enforcing a dress code banning gang attire, Santa Cruz County Fair officials refused to allow about 100 members of the Hells Angels motorcycle club inside the fairgrounds.
The Hells Angels decided to defy new dress restrictions and showed up Saturday night in full motorcycle club regalia.
But the Hells Angels were turned away.
The fair's updated dress code clear states quoting now "The wearing or displaying of clothing, clothing accessories with gang insignias, monikers or identification, including a specific combination of colors or symbols commonly associated with an 'outlaw motorcycle gang,' a 'criminal street gang,' or associated clubs or gangs, as those terms are defined by the California Department of Justice, is prohibited."
Hells Angels lawyer Randolph Hammock wrote the fair board earlier that the club will go to court if the bikers are not allowed access while wearing their Hells Angels insignia.
He says the fair was violating the civil rights of Hells Angels.
