Considered a spinster, Lady Drusilla Rudney has only one role in life: to chaperone her sister. So when her flighty sibling elopes, Dru knows she has to stop her! She employs the help of a traveling companion, who looks harmless enough .
Former army captain John Hendricks is intrigued by this damsel in distress. Once embroiled with her in a mad dash across England, he discovers that Dru is no simpering woman. Her unconventional ways make him want to forget his gentlemanly conduct and create a scandal all their own!
John Hendricks took a sip from his flask and leaned back into his corner of the northbound mail coach, stretching his legs in an effort to take up as much space as he could before another passenger encroached on his person. After the week he'd had, he was in no mood or condition to be packed cheek to jowl with strangers.
Mr Hendricks, if there is something else you have to say on your hopes for my future, know that I decided on the matter from the first moment I laid eyes on Adrian Longesley. Nothing said by another is likely to change me on the subject.
The words were still ringing in his ears, three days later. And with each repetition of them the heat of his embarrassment flared anew. The woman was married, for God's sake, and above his station. She'd made her uninterest in him plain enough. If he'd suffered in silence, as he had for three years, he could have kept his job and his pride. Instead, he'd been so obvious in his infatuation that he'd forced her to speak the truth aloud.
He took another swig from the flask. If the blush on his cheeks was visible in the darkness, better to let the others think it was from drunkenness and not the shame of unrequited love.
Adrian had known all along, of course. And would have allowed him to continue as a part of the household, if he'd not made such an ass of himself. But once it was out in the open, there was nothing to do but give up his position and slink away from London.
John's feelings for his old friend rose in a tangle of jealousy, pity and embarrassment at his own behaviour. Despite all that had happened, he liked and respected Adrian, and had enjoyed working for him. But what did it say of his own character that he'd even consider stealing the wife of a man who would need her support and unwavering love as the last of his vision faded?
And how foolish did it make him to think that Emily would leave a blind earl for an unacknowledged natural son? He might have been an equal to Lord Folbroke in looks and temperament, but he had no rank, no fortune. And though his sight was better than Adrian's, he could hardly call it perfect.
John slipped the flask into his pocket and removed his spectacles to give them a vigorous wipe. There was not a woman alive who would leave her husband for a man whose only asset was marginally better vision.
He stared sullenly through the cleared lenses at the two people on the seat opposite as though daring them to comment about his earlier drinking. When he had bought the ticket, he'd had some hazy idea that travelling to Scotland would be like venturing into the wilderness. It would be a place to heal the soul and the nerves in quiet and solitude. He had not allowed for the fact that, to arrive at this hermit's paradise, he would be crammed into a small enclosure with the very humanity he despised. They had been rattling about the interior of the conveyance like three beans in a bottle for hours already. He felt the impact of each bump and rut in his bones, his teeth and his aching brain. The swaying of the coach was made even worse by the gusting winds and the rain that hammered the sides and tried to creep in at the poorly sealed window on his right, wetting the sleeve of his coat when he tried to relax against the curtain.
He thought of the coaching schedule, forgotten in his pocket. It was over thirty hours to Edinburgh and he suspected that, with the wet roads and the gathering darkness, it would take even longer than normal. Not that it mattered to him. He was his own man now, with no schedule to keep.
He wished that the thought cheered him. Thank God that he was still half-drunk. When the last effects of the alcohol had gone from his system, they would be replaced by the panic of a man who had destroyed his old life.
Hung over was no way to start a new one. But when he'd gone to the Swan with Two Necks, trying to buy a ticket out of London, he had been several gins past the point of making that decision and would now have to live with the consequences.
'Beastly weather we are having.' The man across from him seemed to think that stating the obvious was a witty opening gambit.
John ignored him. He'd been forced to leave London because he had said far too much to his employer. That did not mean he wished to blurt every thought to strangers.
The woman that shared the coach with them seemed to have similar sentiments. At the sound of the man's voice, her skirts rustled and she clutched the book of sermons she had been reading, bringing it closer to her face to catch the flickering light of the reading lamp in her corner.
John saw her give the slightest flinch as the other man turned his attention to her. 'Travelling alone, miss?'
She looked up long enough to give the man next to her the frosty glare of someone who did not answer to those to whom she had not been properly introduced. Then she returned to her book.
But the man who addressed her was undeterred. 'Because I would be happy to escort you to your destination.' Although there was plenty of room in the body of the coach, he'd made a point of choosing the seat next to the young lady and tended to use each swerve and jostle as an excuse to crowd her. Now, he was definitely leering.
John had a moment's concern that she might be naive enough to accept the man's offer out of hand. Then he dismissed it as none of his business.
Her skirts gave another rustle as she drew them tightly to her legs, as though trying to shrink herself enough to minimise contact with the stranger. But that would be near to impossible, for she was of an uncommon height. She did not seem to realise that the movement of the cloth over her legs outlined areas of her body that the man accosting her found most interesting.
As did John, come to that. They were long legs, to match the length of her body. If they matched the small amount of ankle he glimpsed beneath her skirts, they were well shaped. A pity the girl was so Friday-faced. If she'd smiled, she might have been quite pretty.
Though her expression hinted that she was travelling to a funeral, her clothing did not. Bright colours suited her fair skin and the deep blue of her gown made her brown eyes seem even darker. The fabric was expensive, but the cut was conservative, as though she renounced fashion when it impinged on movement or modesty. Her long, black hair was dressed severely away from her face and hidden under a poke bonnet.
If John had to guess, he'd have said spinster. Clearly, this was a girl with money, but no prospects. It was a very unusual combination, for the former often created the latter. But reading sermons in public hinted at a moral propriety that would make her unpleasant company, should she deign to open her mouth.
Her dark eyes caught his, just for a moment. In the dim light they seemed to glitter sharp and dark, like the eyes of a hawk.
Do something.
Had she spoken? Or had he just imagined the words, planted firmly in his brain? Surely, if they had come from her, there would have been some softness in them, some urgent courtesy in their appeal to a stranger for help. The command was an invention of his own drunken mind.
'It is quite lonely,' the other man announced, 'to travel without a companion of some kind.'
A merchant, thought John, for he could not seem to resist speculating about the other passengers. And a prosperous one as well. The man could afford his extra weight, for the fabric of the vest stretched across the bulging stomach was a fine brocade. But his head seemed to be outgrowing his hair, which struggled to conceal an expanding forehead that the man now mopped in the early summer heat. He spoke again, addressing the girl, who had not responded to his earlier comment.
'Is there someone waiting to join you at the next stop?' He was eyeing her carefully to see if there was some small acknowledgement that she was not as alone as she appeared.
John looked as well and saw no such response. The mystery deepened.
Her eyes flicked to him again, and then away, sharp and quick as a knife cut.
Well, indeed. The only advantage of being a gentleman of leisure was that he did not have to be at the beck and call of anyone. Not even young ladies with large dark eyes and forbidding expressions. It was ungentle-manly of him, but so be it. If nothing else, the last few weeks should have taught him not to become embroiled in the schemes of beautiful women who, in the end, would offer nothing more than dismissive thanks as they rushed past him to the object of their desire.
Very deliberately, he yawned and closed his eyes, pretending to sleep. Then he opened them just enough so that he could continue to watch his companions.
There was a flash of lightning, followed close by a crack of thunder loud enough to make the other man jump in his seat. But the woman was unmoved and the cold white light threw the annoyance on her features into sudden sharp relief.
Do you mean to allow this?
When John did not respond, she turned to look at the man next to her. The merchant was impervious to whatever messages she was sending or he'd have turned to dust in his seat before speaking again. This time, he was louder, as though he thought she might not have heard him before. 'I said, is there someone to greet you at your destination?' John watched the flicker of truth on the face of the girl that admitted she had no one.
Their companion saw it as well. 'I noticed, at the last stop, that you did not eat. If you lack funds, you needn't fear. The Cap and Bells does a fine joint. I would be only too happy to share my portion with you. And perhaps a brandy and hot water, to keep away the chill.'
Then he'd offer to share his room as well, John had no doubt. The fine example of London citizenry across the coach from him was on the make for a bedmate. Without someone to aid her, the man would grow more predatory the farther they got from town.
John offered a silent plea to the sense of duty that pushed him to become involved in the business of others, begging it to lie still, just this one time.
Without warning, the girl announced, 'I am not alone. I am travelling with my brother.' And then she kicked John smartly in the ankle.
It was rather like a nightmare he'd once had, of being an actor forced on stage in a play that he had not learned. The girl opposite him seemed to think him obliged to rescue her, though she had no way of knowing whether his intentions were any more gentlemanly then their companion's.
Very well, then. And be damned to his own sense of honour for participating in this farce. He gave a garumphing, snuffling cough, as someone awakening after a long sleep, opened his eyes with a start and shouted, 'What is it? What? Have we arrived already?' He looked straight into the eyes of the girl across from him, shocked at the feeling of sudden connection between them, as though she could manage to relay the whole of her situation with just a glance. Then he stared at the man beside them, as though just noticing him. 'Is this man bothering you, dear heart?'
'I most certainly am not,' the other man replied. 'And I doubt that you know any more of this girl than I do, for you have been travelling with us for some time and have said not a word to her.'
'I did not feel the need to speak to someone I have known since birth,' John said with some asperity.
'And you—' the man glared at the girl '—I'll wager you do not even know this man's name.'
Come on, he thought, in her general direction. Choose anything and I will answer to it. 'It is John,' she said.
He tried to contain his surprise, for she had chosen the single most common name in the world. There was something disappointing about the fact that it fit him so well. He glared at the insolent cit. 'And if I were to give you leave, you would call her Miss Hendricks. But I do not. My dear?' He held out a hand to her, and when she took it without hesitation, he pulled her across the body of the carriage into the seat beside him.
The carriage gave a sudden jolt and she landed half in his lap. The sudden contact was most pleasant, and, for a second, his thoughts were in no way filial. But not a hint of answering blush tinted her pale skin and she grabbed the strap beside the door and sorted herself into the seat between him and the opposite window without further assistance.
To hide his momentary confusion, he removed his spectacles and wiped the lenses on the corner of his handkerchief. When he replaced them, he could see that the woman next to him was bristling in outrage. But she was directing it at the other passenger, glaring in triumph across the coach at her adversary.

This is a Trilogy. The correct order is: 1) Lady Folbroke's Delicious Deception 2) Lady Drusilla's Road to Ruin 3) Lady Pricilla's Seceret. If you like historical romance books this series is for you. I read them all and loved them all. They are well written, funny and endearing. John is my favorite character in all the books. I really enjoyed his and Drucilla's story. Made me laugh. Enjoyed the romance.

This was a beautiful, brand new course when I visited a few years back. It's next to a lake front park. It wasn't very challenging; but a great course for a beginner and a fun course for someone more experience. There were a fair amount of oak trees if I remember correctly, so it was quite shaded. I will assume it could get flooded on a couple holes if there was a good rain. Hope you get the chance to play it some day!

For anyone who is eager to get the inside scoop on the evolution of the world's top social networking site, this Facebook infographic is ideal.
Graphic designers who created this business blueprint of Facebook wanted to visually lay out the history of the booming company. Viewers can easily skim the image and quickly learn about Facebook's history, spanning from the company's founding to its IPO. The content is clearly and cleanly laid out, and is visually appealing. The prominent color throughout the entire Facebook infographic is the company's well-known blue.
This Facebook infographic is a great learning tool for those interested in the history of the colossal company.
Also interesting is the last photo in this series by comScore which has been included to show the rapid viewer growth of Facebook compared to MySpace starting from November 2006 and spanning to January 2008. It's obvious that MySpace was the reigning competitor in 2006 to early 2007, but Facebook took the lead in November 2008 with over 25 million average daily viewers. This is no easy feat and it's intriguing to compare how Facebook has flourished to make it one of the most relevant social media tools on the web whereas MySpace has made decisions that has led it to become far less socially relevant. Will Facebook stand the test of time in the ever-changing world of social media?

T C 357 • Oxymorons that Make History: Military Creativity, Military Intelligence, War Games, and the Formulation of Strategy W
Unique | Days | Time | Location | Instructor |

Bay |
Course Description
This course primarily surveys historical ideas, concepts, thoughts, theories, speculations, philosophies, and ruminations about military strategy. However, this is not a military course. Identifying goals and creating policies to achieve those goals involves gathering information, weighing needs and desires, determining capabilities and assets, assessing possible futures, and then formulating a plan. This is strategic intelligence collection, strategic analysis and strategic planning. Actually "doing it" is applied strategy, or operations acting in the real world. This course will help students learn to assess "large-scale real world issues" and then tackle the truly big issue: "What can we do besides gripe about them?"
About the Professor Austin Bay is an author and a nationally syndicated newspaper columnist. His third novel, The Wrong Side of Brightness, was published in 2003 by Putnam/Jove. Bay also appears as a foreign affairs commentator on National Public Radios Morning Edition program. He has a doctorate in English and Comparative Literature from Columbia. Bay is a colonel in the US Army Reserve. In the 1970s he served in Germany with the 11th Armored Cavalry Regiment and 1st Infantry Division. He served on active duty during Operation Desert Storm. In October 2001 he served a special tour at US Central Command. For four years (1989-93) Bay worked as a special consultant in strategic wargaming in the Office of the Secretary of Defense. Bay is a graduate of the US Army Command and General Staff School and the US Army War College. He is also actively involved in developmental aid projects, primarily in East Africa and Central America, with the Episcopal Church. His other interests include his daughters basketball games, jazz piano, and yoga.

The Mobile Suit of Celestial Being Gundam Meister Setsuna F. Seiei.
Exia also makes a return in season 2 of Gundam 00 where Setsuna has been able to keep the Exia in some working condition while continuing his work as Gundam meister.
Like all the real Gundams of Celestial Being the suit is powered by the GN Drive with emits GN particles permitting the Gundam to perform a number of manouvers as well as distrubting enemy electronic communication.
When the full (but time-limited) power of Exia is unleashed the Trans Am mode is activated which is apparant by its red radiant colour.
Exia's pilot - Setsuna F Seiei - the same person who was once saved by the Gundam when he was still misguided and used as a soldier in the name of god. Through this Gundam, Setsuna is determined to be the pure essence of a Gundam's purpose and eradicate the world from war. It also would seem that Setsuna's Gundam is the most successful one (possibly due to the amazing trust Setsuna has in it).

Android is Googles OS with a Linux-Kernel, so is ChromeOS. And it has no
real impact regarding issues like hardware-support because Android does
not need to run on PC-Hardware, it does not even have a real USB-port.
So some may ask: But it is still some sort of Linux no? Does that not
mean, that Linux in general has arrived on the markets to get its share?
It has not, nobody who speaks about Android to sell it, mentions Linux.
Because Android is a product and more than 90% of the money, that Google
spends to develop Android as a product is for marketing. Names matter in
marketing, more than much else. Android is the brand to be pushed on the
market, nothing else.
Last time I checked, Canonical did the same about Ubuntu. End-user
oriented media adapts that gratefully, they speak about Ubuntu and many
do not even mention Linux in articles about Canonicals Distro. The money
to promote Ubuntu is spent to promote Ubuntu, nothing else. This is, how
marketing for end-users/consumers works.
Quality does not sell, stability does not sell, freedom does not sell at
all -- marketing does.
Real bad quality and stability and maybe even severe lack of respect for
the user can, in some cases, contradict marketing to some extent. But
only, if there is an alternative, that is pushed to the market real hard
with billions of Dollars behind it.
MacOSX is such a competitor and it comes with better quality so nobody
is bothered too much by the fact, that it slaps the face of the user
even harder than Microsoft. Android is another and Ubuntu is a dwarf- if
not microscopic player in that ring.
Imagine, all the devs, that write free software *would* be payed
decently for their good work. Sum up all the salaries and apply a
multiplicator such as 100 and you got the figure needed to really push
GNU/Linux on the market.

Dinner with my granddaughter near Radio City I'll be taking my 8 year old granddaughter to see the Christmas show in a few weeks. Does anyone have any ideas about a place I can take her for dinner? She is an experienced restaurant goer, and eats a variety of different foods. I was just wondering if there's any fun places close by. |

The Courage to Refuse to Cooperate in Evil
Modern health care is replete with situations that tempt us to cooperate immorally in evil.
Tim Roach and his family
An electrician by trade, Tim Roach is married with two children and lives about an hour outside Minneapolis. He was laid off his job in July 2009. After looking for work for more than a year and a half, he got a call from his local union in February 2011 with the news anyone who is unemployed longs for, not just a job offer, but one with responsibility and a good salary of almost $70,000 a year. He ultimately turned the offer down, however, because he discovered that he was being asked to oversee the electrical work at a new Planned Parenthood facility under construction in St. Paul on University Avenue. Aware that abortions would be performed there, he knew his work would involve him in "cooperation with evil," and he courageously declined the offer.
Significant moral issues can arise if we knowingly cooperate in another's evil actions, even though we don't perform those evil actions ourselves. Some helpful "principles of cooperation" have been developed over the centuries in the Catholic moral tradition as a way of discerning how properly to avoid, limit, or distance ourselves from evil, especially intrinsically evil actions. In particular, these principles enable us to recognize that there are certain real-life situations when we must refuse to cooperate.
A simple example can be helpful to illustrate some of these principles: suppose a nurse were to hand the instruments to a physician performing a direct abortion, or turn on the suction machine used to dismember the unborn baby. If the nurse intended the abortion, she would be guilty of formal cooperation in evil. Yet even if she personally opposed the abortion and did not share the intention of the physician performing the procedure, there would still be grave moral objections to her cooperation. Because she would be participating in circumstances essential to the performance of that particular act of abortion, like handing instruments or turning on the suction machine, her cooperation would be morally unacceptable, and would be known as immediate material cooperation.
The key point, then, is that both types of cooperation (formal and immediate material) are morally unacceptable. Whenever we are faced with the temptation to cooperate in intrinsically evil actions like abortion, destruction of embryos for stem cell research, euthanasia, assisted suicide, or direct sterilization, morally we must refuse. This is different, for example, from what theologians call "remote cooperation" in another's evil, as, for example, is done by the postal carrier who delivers letters to an abortion facility; although what occurs there might sicken the carrier's stomach, delivering the mail would not constitute an essential ingredient to the wrongful destruction of human life that occurs there.
On the other hand, driving someone to an abortion clinic so she can undergo an abortion, assisting as a nurse in the operating room during a tubal ligation, or thawing out human embryos from the deep freeze so that a researcher might vivisect them for their stem cells – even if we opposed the practices – all would constitute unacceptable forms of immediate material cooperation with evil.
Real world decisions about cooperation can be daunting and complex. Pharmacists, for example, cannot in good conscience provide the morning-after pill for use by a woman who has had consensual sex and wishes to avoid a pregnancy. The morning-after pill has a contraceptive effect, and may sometimes also work by altering the uterine environment and preventing implantation of an embryo (causing a pregnancy loss/abortion). Even if the pharmacist personally opposed both contraception and abortion, by providing the pill and knowing the purposes to which it would be put, he would cooperate in wrongdoing in an immediate and material way.
Great care, discretion, and courage are required as we seek to avoid cooperation in medical situations where immoral practices may not only be tolerated, but even at times almost imposed on us. |
In fact, a pharmacist in these circumstances would not even be able to refer the woman to a co-worker, because if he were to do so, he would still be cooperating in an essential way in the causal chain leading to the prevention or ending of a pregnancy. He would rather have to decline to assist her, forcing the woman herself to initiate a new sequence of choices and actions that would not involve him – approaching a different pharmacist, for example, who might then provide the drug. For a pharmacist to choose the morally correct course of action in this situation not only requires fortitude, but also could cause significant tension with his supervisor, the pharmacy owner and with others who work there, particularly if such a scenario had not been discussed ahead of time.
Modern health care is replete with situations that tempt us to cooperate immorally in evil. Clearly, certain activities like abortion are not authentic medicine at all, but rather, acts of immorality veiled behind the professionalism of white coats and institutional protocols. Great care, discretion, and courage are required as we seek to avoid cooperation in medical situations where immoral practices may not only be tolerated, but even at times almost imposed on us.
Father Tadeusz Pacholczyk, Ph.D. "The Courage to Refuse to Cooperate in Evil." Making Sense Out of Bioethics (April, 2011).
Father Tad Pacholczyk, Ph.D. writes a monthly column, Making Sense Out of Bioethics, which appears in various diocesan newspapers across the country. This article is reprinted with permission of the author, Rev. Tadeusz Pacholczyk, Ph.D.
The National Catholic Bioethics Center (NCBC) has a long history of addressing ethical issues in the life sciences and medicine. Established in 1972, the Center is engaged in education, research, consultation, and publishing to promote and safeguard the dignity of the human person in health care and the life sciences. The Center is unique among bioethics organizations in that its message derives from the official teaching of the Catholic Church: drawing on the unique Catholic moral tradition that acknowledges the unity of faith and reason and builds on the solid foundation of natural law.
The Center publishes two journals (Ethics & Medics and The National Catholic Bioethics Quarterly) and at least one book annually on issues such as physician-assisted suicide, abortion, cloning, and embryonic stem cell research. Educational programs include the National Catholic Certification Program in Health Care Ethics and a variety of seminars and other events.
Inspired by the harmony of faith and reason, the Quarterly unites faith in Christ to reasoned and rigorous reflection upon the findings of the empirical and experimental sciences. While the Quarterly is committed to publishing material that is consonant with the magisterium of the Catholic Church, it remains open to other faiths and to secular viewpoints in the spirit of informed dialogue.

Summary: Since the late 1960s the Internet has grown from a single experimental network serving a dozen sites in the United States to a network of networks linking millions of computers worldwide. In Inventing the Internet, Janet Abbate recounts the key players and technologies that allowed the Internet to develop; but her main focus is always on the social and cultural factors that influenced the Internet's design and use. The story she unfolds is an often twisting tale of c ...show moreollaboration and conflict among a remarkable variety of players, including government and military agencies, computer scientists in academia and industry, graduate students, telecommunications companies, standards organizations, and network users.
The story starts with the early networking breakthroughs formulated in Cold War think tanks and realized in the Defense Department's creation of the ARPANET. It ends with the emergence of the Internet and its rapid and seemingly chaotic growth. Abbate looks at how academic and military influences and attitudes shaped both networks; how the usual lines between producer and user of a technology were crossed with interesting and unique results; and how later users invented their own very successful applications, such as electronic mail and the World Wide Web.

Cyclocross = cheap, fun cycling
No sooner had I written a blog about how expensive (but fun) cyclocross can be than Genesis Bikes send over a Day One 'cross bike. We'll be reviewing it later next week, but I've just been out for a quick shake-down ride and came back smiling. Yes, it's only got one gear – but I seem to be lurking near bottom gear on my flash bike most of the time. It's a few pounds heavier, but this entire bike costs less than my Hakkalügi's rear wheel…
Look for our 'Impluse Buy-ke' feature next week on this bike. Don't believe us? Since this bike turned up on Tuesday we've been on the phone had two more turn up and all of them are sold to Singletrack staff and contributors. Three of them sold in a week? Does that make us 'Dealer of the week' or something?
More after the weekend. Now, dare I race the Bingley 'cross on it next weekend?

- Zoning changes for new housing in Fairfax may face referendum vote
VOLUNTEERS recently gathered almost 1,000 signatures in Fairfax to overturn the town's new zoning ordinance. That law, subsequently repealed by the Town Council, would have permitted building 142 housing units in the community's downtown.
In a town with barely 2,000 registered voters, that's a substantial outpouring against what some perceived as enabling excessive concentrated growth.
While there are two sides to debate over the zoning law's merits, few dispute that town staff and the council majority were deficient in effectively communicating their message.
The large number of signatures on the referendum petition is revealing about those opposing urbanization of the east side of Marin.
These folks are occasionally labeled by some high-density housing activists as "Tea Partyites." That slam doesn't wash.
Fairfax is Marin's most politically left-leaning municipality and one of California's most progressive towns. It would be amazing if there are 20 Tea Party members in the whole place.
A leader behind the referendum is former Fairfax mayor Frank Egger. Over four decades on the Town Council, Egger earned a reputation as one of the North Bay's most progressive elected officials.
Then there's Bob Silvestri. He was the speaker at Saturday's gathering attended by almost 425 residents upset about Larkspur's SMART Station Area Plan. The Mill Valleyan is at the intellectual center of efforts to thwart regional agencies' efforts to encourage "transit-centered" high-density housing.
Silvestri, who spent most of his professional career as an affordable housing developer, is a certifiable progressive on most issues.
There are some conservatives opposing the regional agencies' housing initiative, but the effort to retain Marin's small-town character is locally based and nonpartisan. Similarly, there are both liberal Democrats and big business-oriented Republicans backing high-density development.
The demonization that most citizens opposed to densification are Tea Party acolytes is just spin. While it's fair to disagree with those wishing to preserve small-town Marin, this stunt quickly collapses under examination.
THE June 3 first round election is fast approaching with voting-by-mail well under way.
Under California's top-two system, the tactic in legislative races is to come in first or second regardless of party. Those two candidates then become finalists in November's runoff.
In the Marin-Southern Sonoma 10th Assembly District, incumbent San Rafael Democrat Marc Levine should easily come in first.
The contest for No. 2 is a four-way scramble, with one candidate pursuing an odd strategy.
Four Democrats are running. Three are progressives. "Progressive" is political speak for those Democrats further left than more moderate traditional liberals like Levine.
College of Marin Trustee Diana Conti looks like Levine's strongest challenger. A public employee union-backed progressive, the Mill Valleyan is running a vigorous campaign in both counties.
Two other progressives are campaigning: Santa Rosa Councilwoman Erin Carlstrom and former Santa Rosa councilwoman Roni Jacobi.
Carlstrom is working hard in Sonoma. That's a tactical dilemma because 60 percent of voters are Marinites.
The candidate employing the most unusual tactic is Jacobi, a passionate environmentalist. Sensing her electoral weakness, Jacobi endorsed Conti. Incongruously, she is still campaigning.
It's as if she were running in a San Francisco-style "ranked choice" election, where endorsing a competing candidate is a common tactic. Jacobi will receive a percentage of the votes no matter what she does between now and Election Day. That's due to her presence at candidate forums and the green votes she'll naturally garner.
That leads to the fifth candidate, Novato Republican Greg Allen. Despite North Bay GOP registration hovering around 20 percent, it's plausible that Allen makes the runoff if Levine, Conti, Carlstrom and Jacobi divide the Democratic vote.
