Wish I was there right now...
With the end of the season the memories of many wonderful winter days spent where some of the Monarch's west of America's Continental Divide spend their winter.
During the winter month's way back in the early 70's when I was a partner of an insurance agency in Pacific Grove, CA (aka Butterfly Town, USA), I'd get overloaded by the insanity of the agency and need a break. Often I'd walk over to the Grove Market by my office, have them make me up something tasty in their deli for lunch, grab a drink and walk to the Monarch Sanctuary nearby.
On the below map my office was at the blue "O" and the sanctuary at the red "X", so it was a nice short walk through the old Victorian houses that lined Lighthouse Ave (most of them are really nice B&B's now) to Pacific Grove's butterfly trees. It was always amazing how quickly the peace and tranquility of "The Grove" would turn a hectic day into one to remember instead of dread.
The rest of the year I'd take my walks on the ocean path that runs all the way around Pacific Grove from Monterey to Pebble Beach. The ice plant was always colorful, the bay/ocean always beautiful and the crashing waves music to my ears. Carmel was a very fun place to live, and Pacific Grove a wonderful place to work back then. I miss the area and had hoped to visit it "one more time" in my life. Have lots of nice memories though.
Most will probably never get to go to the Mexican sanctuaries, but a trip to those along the central California coast would be well worth a looksee.
The Monarch numbers are pretty good this year.

The over wintering Monarchs at The Grove start mating in late January to early February and just prior to starting the dispersal for the spring migration. So some of the first eggs from The Grove are laid in the vicinity of the Monterey Bay area, but most of them further inland to as far as the west slope of Sierra Nevada's and to where mostly the next generation takes over the migration duties. There are at least 5-6 species of Asclepias resident in Monterey Counties Central Coast Range, 4 of which they are known to use, with many more species further inland they use.
Want to have a "butterfly" December or January? There is something like 300 Monarch over-wintering sites along the west coast from the San Francisco Bay Area to Ensenada in Baja California. Most of them are on private land and so not easily accessible to the public. But there are at least a couple of dozen that are easily accessible along the California coast, mostly in parks, reserves and at state beaches. So a wonderful winter week or two could be spent driving California's beautiful Coast Highway 1 visiting as many of them as time and expenses allowed. Numbers present at each site varies from a few hundred to upwards of 200,000 (at CA's largest site, Pismo State Beach). The Grove in Pacific Grove normally gets around 50,000 most years, but there is up to another 150,000 more at two sites close by north in Santa Cruz, another few hundred a short drive south in Polo Colorado Canyon and maybe 10,000 more at Big Sur a little further south.
Wow, those pictures are spectacular, I can almost imagine being there. What a beautiful coastline. I would love to take a vacation like you describe. Do you know what the trees are growing in the grove and the purple and yellow flowers are that growing along the coast?
The Grove is called a mixed oak forest with mostly massive Monterey and Ponderosa Pines, Eucalyptus, Coast Live Oak and Monterey Cyprus, and smaller Scrub Oaks and other smaller species. The MonarchâÂÂs seem to favor the Eucalyptus trees to roost on despite them being an introduced tree on the peninsula from about the mid 1800âÂÂs. Before that they probably favored what is now their second choice, the Monterey Pines. The purple flowers along the Oceanview Walkway are probably Pride of Madeira. They are a favored nectar plant of the Monarchs and are commonly planted all around the peninsula. I canâÂÂt remember what the yellow flowers are⦠maybe forbs though as they can tolerate the salt spray as well as the ice plants do. At Butterfly Town USA, planting lots of nectar plants that the MonarchâÂÂs will use is a very common practice with the residents and business owners. So with all the color and the largest collection of Victorian homes per capita in America the town is beautiful.
A tidbit: Even though they are in close proximity to the cold North Pacific waters, the roost sites remain warmer than all the other areas on the peninsula in winter, and have just the right humidity for the MonarchâÂÂs.
With so many wonderful things to see and do in such a beautiful place, the Monterey Peninsula surly is a "must do" at least once in a life time isn't it? If for the Monarchs themselves December and January are the best because they start to disperse in February, and by March they are pretty much gone.
Carmel-by-the Sea is very beautiful place nestled in a hilly Ponderosa and Monterey pine, Cyprus and Coast Live Oak forest that runs right up to the oceans edge, with great beaches and graggy points. It has been a quaint "artists community" from day one, so it has always been a favored place to live for lots of the most well known theater and screen actors, painters, poets and writers, photographers, musicians, etc. When I lived in Carmel about 70% of it's residents were tied to the aesthetic arts in some way, and it was a very popular hangout for the Hollywood crowd since lots of movies and commercials are made there. So you become friends with a lot of mostly eccentric people in a small community with a fun but eccentric life style. With no street addresses the homes are found by a reference to the nearest cross streets, or by maps you can get in the cute shops that line Ocean Avenue of the cottages that have a name (like mine that was known as The Whales Tale, with a Disney like Moby Dick plaque out front in place of address numbers). There are lots of crazy laws there too, but tourists are not usually held to them. Doris Day and quite a few other actors do live in the area full time, but many more have homes in Carmel (as well as the Carmel Highlands, Carmel Valley and Pebble Beach) even though they live elsewhere most of the year. Carmel gets in your blood, so once you've visited or lived there you just know that there is no place else like it and will always want to go back. If it wasn't for the political climate in California now (100's of times worse than when I lived there), when I divorced in 2002 I would have moved back to Carmel in a heartbeat.
Carmel is known for its beautiful cottages, big and small. These pictures will give an idea of the habitat there.
Oh my goodness! Those cottages are adorable, Larry - they look like something out of a fairy tale! I hate to think what they'd cost if they ever go on the market! Carmel sure looks like my kind of place. My home is a raised Gulf Coast cottage in the woods, with a picket fence around it, and I have antiques inside and lots of whimsical things, being eccentric myself, but my house and land are boring compared to those cottages - they look like they could be used as sets in movies (and commercials) alright! The roofs are especially unique looking, like the boards are wavy, or am I seeing them wrong?
I agree with you about California politics, though. Those in charge seem to think 2+2=9, and the citizens won't vote in anybody with any sense.
Your pictures always make me realize how limited my experiences have been. I've lived only in South Mississippi all my life - my predecessors have lived here since 1811, so we're really entrenched - and I haven't seen much of the world, just a brief trip to Mexico in 1964 and a brief trip the year before out west, quickly through southern California, Nevada, Arizona, etc. My daughter in Tampa is real successful (vice-president of an international publishing company) and her job takes her all over the world. My grandson has already been to Europe twice, and he's just 11 years old - when I was his age, I'd been to Meridian! :)
But then, my poor daughter has to travel on airplanes, which these days is beyond horrible, so I feel sorry for her that way.
Keep posting pictures of all those exotic places you've been to and/or lived in - we all enjoy them!
The Monarch Teacher Network is planning a trip to CA instead of Mexico this year. Their trip is planned late February. Unfortuntely, I've been told most of the Monarchs will have left the coast by then.

The "storybook" cottages in Carmel seldom come up for sale, and usually cost 2-3 times what a more conventional home the same size in the area sells for when they do. Most of them at one time have belonged to a very famous person, so that adds to their value. Even with the real estate crash of recent years in CA, I'd guess those pictured would still be in the $5-10 million dollar range now.
Cedar shake shingles are very popular in Carmel, and are very expensive now days. But they do add a lot of charm. My cottage was similar to the last picture, did have a couple of Coast Live Oaks around the cobblestone courtyard and wood deck off the game room, but it was in a forest of massive Ponderosa Pines. It had hand split shakes that were quite gnarled, twisted and warped because my cottage was built in 1940 buy a famous Scandinavian Nordic skier and painter (water color). Builders of newer cottages hurry up the process by using commercially steamed and weathered shakes though. A funny side note about my roof... I was soon cussing it because the gray tree squirrels found great fun chasing each other around on them at day break to wake us. Sounded like elephants on the roof gone wild. And when they dropped a big Ponderosa pine cone from high in the trees on the roof it sounded like we had been hit by a bomb. Many of the squirrels on my property became cook pot fodder (shhh).
Air travel has always been horrible when you have to do a lot of it like your daughter does. During my years working for the Germans I flew up to 200K miles a year just for business, and got real tired of airports, hotels and restaurants. Some times I'd have to take 3 flights a day to 3 different states and still be home in time for dinner. Jet lag becomes a way of life for your daughter I'd bet just like it was for me.
Anybody want an infamous Carmel home? I see on-line that the Carmel Butterfly House is for sale for a cool $19.995 million. Steep price for a little 2 bedroom maybe, but the views and ever present crashing surf would be awesome. It has been used as a set in movies ("A Summer Place" was one of them).

I have no pictures of that house; the ex got all the pictures from my lifetime. Like I said above, the last one pictured is similar to mine. Mostly because of the seclusion plantings and courtyards all the way around it I guess. Ours was much bigger than this one even though only a 2 bedroom. It was shaped like a "T" with lots of property, and with a separate garage behind on one side and a guesthouse behind on the other side that both had their own pea gravel driveways through the forest. The top of the "T" was the two master bedrooms and their baths, the tail of the "T" the great room and kitchen and there were no other rooms in the house. The guest house had its own kitchen and bath. The great room was awesome at 25' X 45', with a wet bar and seating on one end, a built in library on the other with double French doors between the bookcases that went out onto a large cobblestome courtyard, and a stone fireplace on one side wall and double French doors that went out onto a raised redwood deck. I had a regulatition pool table on the bat end, a large conveersation pit circled in front of the fireplace and my home office on the library end. A dutch door from the kitchen went to a courtyard with an additional eating area, and there was another eating area built into the center of the redwood deck. The "lots of property" was the key to its value as land in Carmel is an expensive premium, and its storybook charm was enhanced by the property being left as natural as possible so the buildings would blend into the native coastal forest. It was the kind of place that you might expect Hansel and Gretel to knock on the door of.
A large part of the Carmel lifestyle is entertaining at home or going out, and we did both with friends and neighbors more days than not. One of our favorite hangouts in Carmel was Clint Eastwoods place... and it's still going strong all these years later. The ex did civic functions with his wife Maggie, I was on the board of directors of his and James Garner's private gun club in Carmel Valley and I can remember when his daughter Alison was born. We were both quite disappointed when he dumped Maggie for Sandra Locke the year before we left Carmel.

This aerial of Carmel gives an idea of how small and quaint it really is with less than 4,000 residents. Pebble Beach Golf Course is at bottom; old Carmel where most of the storybook cottages are located; above it the Carmel River State Reserve that runs up into Carmel Valley (gets 2 Steelhead runs a year); and at top is the Carmel Highlands and Point Lobos State Reserve

I was just thinking about Pacific Grove - of course I have been thinking of warmer places than Napa Valley. Not sure that is it tho. However I understand monarchs overwinter in Tomales also. I saw not one this year - I guess Napa was not on the tour.
I know they are in Santa Barbara too around this time of year - they were everywhere on a nice warm sunny winter day.
The Bodega Dunes site north of Bodega Bay is the best known on the north coast for the Monarchs overwintering most years in fair numbers (4,000). Tomales is not far south of there, although inland, so it could be a small site of theirs also. As many times as I went to Bodega Bay when I lived in the San Francisco Bay area I never stopped at Tomales though.
There are many sites in the San Luis Obispo - Santa Barbara - Ventura areas, with the biggest at Pismo Beach in SLO followed by the site at Goleta in SB.
The Bodega Bay area is another great place to visit in California. We used to go there fairly often when we lived in the San Francisco Bay Area, stop at The Tides (the place used for the filming of "The Birds") for a loaf or two of fresh french bread, the days catch of cracked crab, shrimp or some other seafood and a bottle of wine to take to a secluded cove with a great little beach we liked for a picnic. We'd do a little skinny dipping to collect some purple sea urchins for the bread and were in sea food heaven. What can I say... we were young, newly married, loved fresh sea food and even on weekends nobody else ever climbed down into our little cove. LOL
Sometimes we'd go to Bodega to snorkel for abalone and sea urchines, but our favorite place for the biggest reds and urchins was much further up the coast between Anchor Bay and Point Arena. We had to scale down an 80' cliff there on a steel cable to get to the rocks below, and had to time our visits and length of stay to the lowest tides of the year as there was no beach there and trying to go down or just being down there when the tide and crashing surf was in would have been deadly. When we didn't have time to drive up the coast we'd go for abs at Half Moon Bay south of the Bay Area, about the furthest south you could get big reds. When we lived in Carmel we had to settle for the much smaller black, green and pink abs, and smaller urchins, but they were just as tasty with Diego Red wine and hard french or sourdough bread for the roe. Between the DR and the urchin roe you'd be on your ear in short order if you weren't used to drinking and eating them though. ;)

PARIS (AP) — French prosecutors are investigating a news website that claims to have evidence that Libya's late dictator Moammar Gadhafi offered campaign funds to France's president.
The investigation was opened Monday after President Nicolas Sarkozy filed a formal complaint against French website Mediapart.
Sarkozy has vigorously denied the allegation, which was first levied by one of Gadhafi's sons last year as France was pressing for international airstrikes against Gadhafi's forces to end a crackdown on rebels.
Although no evidence has emerged that the funding ever took place, Mediapart reported Saturday it had obtained a 2006 Libyan document signed by Gadhafi's then-intelligence chief Moussa Koussa with an offer by the regime to spend €50 million ($66 million) on Sarkozy's first presidential bid.
Sarkozy's complaint accused Mediapart of "forgery" and "publication of false news," according to the prosecutor's office. The complaint named Edwy Plenel, the site's executive editor, and two other journalists. After the investigation, the prosecutor will decide whether to file charges.

Great work!
Ive already given you my ideas I think, but I'll leave you a written review in case I forgot anything. I agree with benyue - while there is a theme, it it hard to pick it out from all of the other material unless you know what you're looking for. You have loads of wonderful stuff here, but sometimes you need to give the listener a nudge in the direction you want them to be listening :)
Some points of thought:
1. A motif doesn't have to be melodic - you can have an instrument or rhythm-based reoccurring theme. For instance - if you begin a piece with a gripping oboe solo, and then take out the oboe for 50 bars, when it comes back the listener will draw the connection, even if the melody is different.
2. Sometimes when I'm writing music I try to see how many times I can slip in the same motif. Beethoven was an absolute master at this - his 5th symphony is a great example. If nothing else it's a good exercise to try, and will get you thinking about intertwining lines and themes vs stacking them left to right.
Your music has such clarity, and has some clear Elfman influences in places :). Can't wait to hear more collaboration projects!
Hey Dave! First of all- thank you for the lengthy review!
That's a very interesting point you brought up about how a motif can be established not only by notation, but by tambre and rhythm as well. Another example of a great rhythmic motif is in Stravinski's Rite of Spring. The guy was an absolute genius- a master of rhythm.
Haha yes- I was on quite an Elfman kick when I wrote this piece. I'm not surprised you noticed :)

Date of Stay: July, 2010 - $33.00
Everyone we met here was very friendly and helpful. The campground is older with shady sites. Many seasonals. The hookups are not in normal locations. I didn't use the water so I can't comment on the lack of pressure. The electrical issues mentioned in another review must've been taken care of because the voltage was the highest I have ever seen. Not sure about the amperage as I have no way to measure it. Leaving was a challenge with a 38 ft motorhome. I wasn't sure if I was going to get around the loop at the end or have to back up and find a different exit. After a couple of tries I did get out OK. Convenient to Camping World, Sam's Club, Super Walmart and Concord. Many antique shops heading east on 202. We camped at Epsom Valley Campground in a Motorhome.Undo
Date of Stay: July, 2007 - $30.00
This is just a so-so campground. We stayed here for two months for medical reasons (doctors, surgery, etc.), and felt lucky to get a spot here on short notice. The owners and staff are friendly and accommodating. Most of the sites are taken by seasonal customers. They have some activities. The location is good for race fans going to NH International Speedway in Loudon. Camping World is nearby. The electrical voltage and water pressure are both atrocious! Had to use the water tank and pump just to get enough flow for bathing and dish washing. We had a digital voltmeter plugged in, and on hot weekends during peak A/C loads, the voltage dipped down to 95, and we had to switch the fridge to propane just to keep the A/C running. Had to do much juggling to run things like the toaster and microwave. Would probably look elsewhere if we visit New Hampshire again. We camped at Epsom Valley Campground in a Motorhome.Undo

Renault has unveiled the most hardcore RenaultSport Megane yet, the Trophy-R, and celebrated in style: by setting a new lap record at the Nurburgring. James will not be happy.
Piers Ward16 June 2014
The 'Ring has a new FWD record…
And it's the Megane RenaultSport 275 Trophy-R in 7'54.36". Not bad for a "family hatch"
The FWD battle has hotted up in recent times. The Trophy-R lapped the German track in a total time of 7min 54secs, smashing the previous front-wheel drive record of 7m58s set by a Seat Leon Cupra. Not half bad for a "family hatch", albeit one that costs almost £10,000 more than the Leon.
And let's face it, this new Trophy-R isn't really a family hatch anymore - it doesn't have any rear seats for starters. Renault has put the Megane on the most extreme weight loss regime since Christian Bale slimmed down for the Machinist. There's no rear windscreen wiper – saving one whole kilogram – no radio, no air con, no noise insulation, and the wheels are lighter, as are the seats. All in, the Trophy-R is nearly 100kg lighter than the normal Megane RS, no slouch itself.
But that's not all. Power from the 2.0-litre turbo engine has been increased to 271bhp, torque remains at 266lb ft, and it's been fitted with a titanium Akrapovic exhaust (saving yet more weight). There are adjustable Ohlins dampers – you can tweak them from inside the cabin – as well as Michelin Pilot Sport Cup tyres.
Safe to say that all this is squarely aimed at the track day enthusiast. Like the Toyota GT86, there's even enough room in the boot for four spare tyres, and you can get special wheel covers so you don't get the boot mucky.
None of this comes cheap, though, and as ever with these sort of track day specials, Renault charges more for less. The Trophy-R is £36,430, a steep increase of £7,500 on the normal Trophy. Good value for a record-breaker?

Wayne Dalton -vs- Amarr

We are in the process of purchasing (3) 9x7 garage doors / replacements. Both guys are real nice both are using the Liftmaster...Here is the question. Amarr Designers Choice is the appearance I want and the mechanics/construction my DH thinks we need. (we have alot of skate boards, LAX balls etc so denting is a concern) On the other side of the coin is the Wayne Dalton 8300 series which is pretty close in appearance and the cost is great. Is one door far superior in construction or are they pretty silimar? Any input is greatly appreciated. We live in the Ct so we get a fair share of cold nights.

Mark Bolton (LL '14), Director, Louisville Metro Department of Corrections
"From the exposure to places, people and new relationships, I've become part of this community in a way that I never would have without Leadership Louisville. The connectivity and passion that came up from our class was amazing. If you have the opportunity to do this, you owe it to yourself, and more importantly, you owe it to your community."
Tom Johnson (LL '13), Vice President, Public Relations & Chief Communications Officer, Norton Healthcare
"What a difference Leadership Louisville has made in my life and career! It's made me more introspective and evaluative about my own personal leadership and I'm now better able to work with and empower my staff. The most profound impact came from the group of impressive professionals in my class. We shared wisdom, advice, life experiences and ways to help each other."
Elaine Salvo (LL '13), Former President, Assumption High School

Bebe (Marcia DeBonis) is getting ready for the most romantic encounter of her life, and she needs her best friend Dee Dee (Anne Heche) to cheer her on. Too bad Dee Dee is so cynical about dating that she shows up three hours late only to spew cigarette smoke and bitterness all over the morning coffee. And too bad Clementine, a train wreck of a stranger (Alia Shawkat) has decided to invade their day with non-stop talk about her nymphomaniac escapades. Looking to turn the day around, this fearsome threesome embark on a day of misadventure that only New York City can offer. "That's What She Said" is a quirky and honest look at friendship in the face of adversity, asking one of life's great questions: why does it always have to be so hard? (That's what she said.)

Our special coverage of the closest race for years
Explore the personal stories of Syrian refugees in Lebanon
06 Jan 2014 22:22 GMT | Politics, Middle East, US & Canada, Egypt, Eritrea
Thousands of African migrants have marched in the Israeli city of Tel Aviv, appealing for the support of Western governments against Israel's detention policy towards migrants who entered the country illegally.
Protesters chanted "no more prison" outside the US embassy, and also marched on to the French, Italian, British, Canadian and German embassies on Monday, to hand over letters appealing for international support.The protests prompted a strongly worded statement from the UN refugee agency (UNHCR), saying that Israel's incarceration of migrants, caused "hardship and suffering" and was "not in line with" a 1951 world treaty on the treatment of refugees."Placing asylum-seekers in duress that may force them to opt to return without having examined their asylum claims could amount to a violation" of international refugee conventions, Walpurga Englbrecht, the UNHCR representative in Israel, said in a statement on Sunday.
Englbrecht criticised Israel's official description of migrants as "infiltrators", saying most were refugees or deserved international protection.
Hundreds arrested
Israel's newest detention facility "would appear to operate as a detention centre from where there is no release", she said.
Israel isn't their home and we will make efforts to ensure it won't become a state of infiltrators
Gideon Saar, Israel Interior Minister
The protests on Monday followed a mass demonstration of Africans outside Tel Aviv city hall on Sunday.On December 10, Israel's parliament approved a law permitting authorities to detain migrants without valid visas indefinitely.
More than 300 migrants have been arrested since the new law went into effect, and dozens more have been summoned for detention, the UNHCR said.
Israeli Interior Minister Gideon Saar rejected the allegations, telling Israel Army Radio on Monday the vast majority of migrants had come in search of jobs, not asylum."But Israel isn't their home and we will make efforts to ensure it won't become a state of infiltrators," he said.
Some 60,000 migrants, largely from Eritrea and Sudan, have crossed into Israel across a once-porous border with Egypt since 2006, Israeli authorities say.
An Israeli border fence has cut off the African influx from Egypt since 2012, but migrants who have already crossed can be sent to what the government describes as an open prison in Israel's southern desert.
The new detention facility resembles a half-way house. Detainees can leave but must report back three times a day, including at nightfall, and may be held without a time limit pending voluntary repatriation, implementation of deportation orders or resolution of their asylum requests.

Japanese reject longtime rulers
Propelled by economic slump and populist appeal, opposition sweeps conservatives in control since 1955.
Japan's opposition swept to a historic victory in elections Sunday, crushing the ruling conservative party that has run the country for most of the postwar era and assuming the daunting task of pulling the economy out of its worst slump since World War II.
A grim-looking Prime Minister Taro Aso conceded defeat just a couple of hours after polls had closed, suggesting he would quit as president of the Liberal Democratic Party, which has ruled Japan for all but 11 months since 1955.
"The results are very severe," Aso said. "There has been a deep dissatisfaction with our party."
Unemployment and deflation – and an aging, shrinking population – have left families fearful of what the future holds.
Fed up with the LDP – traditionally the champion of big business and conservative interests in Japan – voters turned to the opposition Democratic Party of Japan, which ran a populist-leaning platform with plans for cash handouts to families with children and expanding the social safety net.
"This is a victory for the people," said Yukio Hatoyama, leader of the Democrats and almost certainly Japan's next prime minister. "We want to build a new government that hears the voices of the nation."
Japan's economy has been jolted amid the global recession and falling demand for its exports. The unemployment rate has spiked to a record 5.7 percent. Incomes are stagnant and families have cut spending.
The country also must deal with more people on elderly pensions as the taxpayer pool to pay for them shrinks.
The Democrats' plan to give families $275 a month per child through junior high is meant to ease parenting costs and encourage more women have babies. Japan's population of 127.6 million peaked in 2006, and is expected to fall below 100 million by the middle of this century.
Among other Democratic Party proposals: toll-free highways, free high schools, income support for farmers, a higher minimum wage and tax cuts. The estimated bill comes to $179 billion if fully implemented. Critics say that will further bloat Japan's already massive debt.
