Latest News from Market Street Railway...
Muni Heritage Weekend September 26-27
Muni Heritage Weekend for 2015 has been officially scheduled on Saturday-Sunday, September 26-27.
The fourth edition of the popular event will again feature vintage streetcars, a special cable car, and vintage streetcars not often seen on the street, all available for the public to ride. Specifics are still being worked out, but it will be similar to the 2014 event, in terms of the vehicles involved. Working with Muni's great shop forces, we're hoping to introduce at least one newly restored vehicle to the operation.
If you're planning to travel from a distance, consider coming early, because we're working to set up special events for our members, including a possible charter, on Thursday, September 24. We'll have details soon.
In any event, late September is usually the best weather period of the year in San Francisco, and with school back in session, the summer visitor crush has passed. So if you're planning a trip here for Heritage Weekend this year, stretch it out and enjoy many more wonders of the City by the Bay, and Northern California beyond.1 Comment
Sign Up For Our April Trolley Tours
Trolley Tours are back in 2015! We've scheduled our first three, and will be announcing more in the months to come.
These private charters, arranged by Market Street Railway, give you the chance to ride vintage streetcars not often seen in regular service and along streetcar routes that the vintage cars only follow for events like these.
All the details are here, if you just want to cut to the chase.
Our first excursion, on April 12, brings out Muni's European PCC, the stylish Belgian adaptation of the U.S. streetcar design seen on the F-line. With exterior livery touting Zurich, San Francisco's sister city, but interior signs in French and Flemish heralding the city where it actually ran, Brussels, it's a rolling example of streetcar schizophrenia. It will run from our San Francisco Railway Museum out the F and J lines to Balboa Park and back.
Our second Trolley Tour is especially for grandparents and grandchildren, on the delightful 1934 boat tram from Blackpool, England. What better way to delight the little ones than an open air ride along the waterfront, with a guided tour included.
Then, on April 26, we'll have our first "Night Train" event, an evening excursion on beautifully restored 1912 Car No. 1, with beverages and a live band!

Geary Car House, with Friends
Muni's first streetcar storage and maintenance facility was the Geary Car House, at Geary Blvd. and Presidio Avenue. It opened with Muni's first lines (the A and B) in 1912 and stopped being a streetcar facility after the Geary lines converted to buses at the end of 1956. Muni built its Presidio Division bus facility behind this carbarn at the end of the 1940s. Its offices sat above the streetcar storage tracks until the early 21st century.
We saw this shot on eBay but were not successful in getting the original. Still, it's worth sharing because of the "friends" we found in the photo.
That's double-end PCC No. 1006 on the left in the closeup, with a blank route sign and "Car House" as its destination. Chances are it had come in from the N-Judah, where the double-enders often ran in their early years. Next to it is Car No. 15, signed for the F-Stockton line, and then, lo and behold, Car No. 1, signed for the C-Geary-California line, which it often served in its waning days. Its destination sign, though, shows "Plymouth," the end of the M-Ocean View line. That could easily have been a "barn rat," a young railfan of the day, playing around. The ad on the end of one of the streetcars suggests the date is 1951. It's certainly not later than that because the F-Stockton became the 30-Stockton bus at the end of 1951, and it's not earlier than 1948 because that's when No. 1006 joined the fleet.
We were delighted to see this photo, featuring two streetcar friends that are still with us, thanks to Muni's commitment to preservation (with support from Market Street Railway).1 Comment
Sunday Streets on The Embarcadero March 8
The weather is scary-summery, leading us to wring our hands over the worsening drought. But there's an upside: a beautiful day expected Sunday for the first Sunday Streets event of the season, March 8 from 11 a.m.-4 p.m. (Daylight Savings Time!) on The Embarcadero between Third Street and Pier 39. Details here.
This is the now-established event where automobiles are detoured, opening the northbound roadway for bicyclists, tricyclists, unicyclists, skateboarders, and users of virtually any other self-powered vehicle. Including feet.
But the F-line streetcars will be operating, so it's a great opportunity to come down and enjoy a ride as part of the day. (Remember, though, the F-line streetcars cannot accommodate bikes on board.)
Market Street Railway sincerely wishes Muni could put out some of the unique streetcars, like Muni Car 1 and the Boat Tram, for the event, but Muni reports a continuing shortage of trained operators they've been trying to address for a couple of years now. (We're hoping that something positive in that regard will develop at the last minute, but it's not likely.) We'll have an article about this frustrating training situation in the next issue of our member newsletter, Inside Track, due out in early April.
While you're on the waterfront, stop into our San Francisco Railway Museum across from the Ferry Building to see our exhibit, "Fair, Please," on how Muni came of age in order to serve the 1915 Panama-Pacific International Exposition.
The Examiner just carried a long article on Muni's 1915 fair service with lots of quotes from us. Unfortunately, though, the article got mixed up about the historic streetcar extension to Fort Mason. As much as we might wish it to be true, the streetcar extension through the historic 1914 rail tunnel (built in part to bring materials to the Exposition site) will not be hosting streetcars this summer.
The reporter apparently confused the startup of weekend service on the E-Embarcadero historic streetcar line between Fisherman's Wharf and Caltrain, still slated by Muni for July of this year, with the future extension to Fort Mason, for which funding is still being sought. And the headline writer erroneously called the Fair service the "birthing of Muni," when it was more a case of Muni going from toddler to teenager in the course of a couple of growth-spurt years. But it was still a good piece, and we recommend it.No Comments
1915 Fair Celebration
On February 20, 1915, the Panama-Pacific International Exposition opened. On that opening day, tens of thousands of San Franciscans and visitors paraded north along Van Ness Avenue to reach the fairgrounds at Harbor View (now the Marina District). Tens of thousands more rode streetcars, such as No. 11 (identical to preserved Muni No. 1) shown here on Van Ness in the vicinity of Vallejo Street.
On Saturday, February 21, 2015, you're all invited to a community celebration marking the fair's centennial, under the dome of the Palace of Fine Arts (the only surviving structure from the Fair), Lyon and Francisco Streets, from 12 Noon to 5 p.m.. Buffalo Bill Cody, Charlie Chaplin, Laura Ingalls Wilder, and other famous 1915 fair attendees will be there (at least in spirit, and through impersonators). There'll be dancing, music and plenty of historic displays, including ours. All the details are here.
This weekend is also a great time to visit our San Francisco Railway Museum to see our free exhibit, "Fair, Please," telling the story of how this monumental exposition helped the young Municipal Railway come of age. If you can't make it to the museum this weekend, not to worry. The exhibit will run through November, just like the fair did a century ago.
You can also read our story about how Muni served the fair. It's a reprint from our exclusive quarterly member newsletter, Inside Track, filled with inside information, unique stories and rare photos, most of which we don't share online. Join us today and we'll send you the last four issues of this award-winning glossy newsletter.No Comments
Market Street Gets a Closeup
Peter Hartlaub is one of the best things about the Chronicle today. He mines the newspaper's archives, finding some real photographic gems along with contemporary news coverage. Then he puts them into context, sometimes in the newspaper itself but more often on his blog on sfgate.com.
Today, his article talks about Market Street's history. It's a good read and we recommend it. You should also look at his blog post from a few days ago, that has lots of additional photos of Market Street in the 1800s, including the one at the top of this post. That's a temporary "triumphal arch" over Market Street's relatively new cable car tracks in 1886, celebrating the gathering of the Grand Army of the Republic (Civil War veterans who fought for the Union).
Peter's pieces dovetail nicely with the talk MSR's Rick Laubscher will be giving this coming Thursday night, February 19, at the Mechanic's Institute. It's free for Market Street Railway members. Details here. Hope to see lots of you on Thursday.No Comments
Market Street Past and Future February 19
On Thursday, February 19 at 6 p.m., the venerable Mechanics' Institute will present a double-barreled program on the past and future of Market Street, featuring the transportation policy director of SPUR, Ratna Amin, and Market Street Railway President Rick Laubscher.
All the details and signups are here.
Market Street Railway members, SPUR members, and Mechanic's Institute members are free. Public tickets are $15. Note that we will check those who reserve seats as Market Street Railway members, but you can still join us in time if you're not a member yet.
Rick will present photographs illustrating Market Street's history as San Francisco's main transportation and business artery, with commentary on the different eras the street went through, particularly the long-troubled, now resurgent mid-Market area. He'll also sign copies of our guidebook, On Track, which will be available for sale at the event.
Ratna will outline the plans now under way to make traveling along Market Street safer and better. We expect a lively interchange with the audience as well.
If you've never visited the Mechanics' Institute, it is worth the trip all by itself. Its building at 57 Post Street, designed by noted architect Albert Pissis (who created the classic Emporium facade on Market, among other works) opened in 1910 and has been faithfully preserved. Entering the chess room is like time travel.
Come join us February 19 at the Mechanics' Institute.1 Comment

Party Like It's 1915!
One hundred years ago this month, San Francisco launched perhaps its greatest party ever. Officially, the nearly year-long fair at Harbor View (now the Marina District) — the Panama-Pacific International Exposition — celebrated the opening of the Panama Canal. To city leaders and residents, though, it was really a celebration of the city's own resurrection from the devastating earthquake and fire of 1906.
To build excitement about the forthcoming fair, the city installed lights in 1914 that outlined the Ferry Building tower at night, along with a lighted "1915" above the famous clock. On the Bay side, ferryboat riders all saw the big neon sign running the length of the building: "California Welcomes the World — Panama-Pacific Exposition." The lights signs stayed up through the end of the fair.
Thanks to a great idea by San Francisco historian and civic leader Donna Ewald Huggins, the lights and "1915" sign are coming back next month, expected to be dedicated March 3. Carl Nolte's Chronicle story this morning has the details (but note that the content is behind the on-again Chron paywall, so the link may not work for everyone).
The signs and lights cost $80,000, the biggest single chunk coming at the last minute from Bay Area philanthropist Tad Taube. We thank Tad, Donna, and all the others involved in this great project.
The photo above, from our archives, shows the 1915 sign on the Ferry Building amid a cluster of streetcars operated by Muni and its competitor United Railroads. The banner strung above the Ferry Building entrance — "The Panama Canal is Open", the "Ball Park" dash sign on the A-Geary streetcar, center, (Ewing Field was a couple of blocks off the line, on Masonic), and the automobile license plate tell us its late summer 1914.
At our San Francisco Railway Museum through October, see our exhibit "Fair, Please!" on how Muni came of age by serving the 1915 fair. At the museum or on our online store, you can also buy a wonderful new book by Laura Ackley on the fair.No Comments
Double Play on 16th Street
Muni launches its new 55-Sixteenth Street bus route today, running from the BART station at 16th and Mission to Mission Bay, serving the new Benioff UCSF Children's Hospital and everything else in that fast growing neighborhood.
This means that 16th Street will host a double-double of Muni routes: The five-five and the two-two, much better known as the 22-Fillmore, one of the City's most venerable transit lines.
Today is the beginning of a big transition for the 22, a very long crosstown line that starts at the Marina Green and makes a giant "L" through Pacific Heights, the Western Addition, Upper Market, the Mission, and Potrero Hill. Its traditional route (since the very beginnings) has taken it over Potrero Hill on 18th Street to reach Third Street, but once overhead wire is strung along 16th Street (which will somehow take three years, though it used to take three months or less when Muni had large overhead wire crews), the 55 will go away and be replaced by a rerouted 22-Fillmore trolley coach running all the way along 16th to Third. At that point, the trolley wires on Potrero Hill will be taken over by a rerouted 33-Stanyan — ANOTHER double number route, and, it should be noted, San Francisco's very first trolley coach route, opened by our namesake, erstwhile Muni competitor Market Street Railway Company in 1935.
In celebration of today's double play with the 55 and 22, we bring you a 1948 shot from our archives of two 22-Fillmore streetcars passing each other at 16th and Bryant, where both the 55 and 22 now run. Fitting for two reasons: Seals Stadium on the left, where myriad double plays were turned over the decades, and, just out of frame to the right, the Double Play bar, still there today!
The next issue of our Member newsletter, Inside Track, will have a special feature on the history of the 22-Fillmore, with photos you can't see anywhere else. Join now, and we'll also send you our feature on one of the world's most unusual transit lines, the Fillmore Hill counterbalance (which was the northern extension of the 22-line until 1941).No Comments

Minecraft creator, Notch, was offered a job at Valve, but said no
Minecraft: The Unlikely Tale of Markus 'Notch' Persson and the Game that Changed Everything, is a book - yes, a book - which has revealed that the creator of Minecraft, Markus 'Notch' Persson, turned down a job at Valve.
Notch was invited to Valve at around the same time that Minecraft was entering its beta, and was just beginning to blossom. Notch was shown through the Valve offices, and met with Gabe Newell himself, before he was taken to a meeting room for a chat with Valve's HR team. He told the HR team a bit about himself, and his plans for Minecraft, and then realized he was in the middle of a job interview.
Moments later, he was made an offer. He declined, stating he wasn't interested in the position. Notch said that it was one of the hardest decisions of his life turning down Valve, but said that he felt like Minecraft was his chance to show his own version of Valve, rather than working for them. Now that over 33 million copies of his game have been sold, he should be quite proud of his move.
DICE introduces Top Issue Tracker for Battlefield 4
Today DICE announced that they have just unveiled a new Top Issue Tracking page for Battlefield 4. The issue tracker is designed to display the top issues that are being reported in Battlefield 4 by gamers across all platforms. DICE says that the tracking system is the same as it use internally and that this is just a way to display the top issues to its customers.
DICE says that the list is not comprehensive and only list the major top issues that are being experienced by gamers. Users can check the list to see of a bug they have been experiencing is listed, and see what its status is on each of the consoles or PC. Battlefield 4 is in my opinion the best shooter ever made, and this new list shows just how dedicated DICE is to keeping it that way!
Remedy teases time breaking and much more in Quantum Break
If there's a studio that can pump out some quality digital art, it's Remedy. The developer is responsible for some truly magical games, such as Max Payne and Alan Wake, and is back with another game: Quantum Break.
Max Payne himself, or the guy Remedy used to model him from, Sam Lake, Creative Director of the game, explains Quantum Break in the video above. The world of Quantum Break is all about time, and how it is broken, which introduce isolated anomalies, freezing time in place. It looks interesting to say the least, and I can't wait to see more of it.

Telltale Games deal with HBO for Game of Thrones is massive
We know that Telltale Games has its work cut out for it when it comes to the Game of Thrones game, but did you really think it would all start with, and end with just the single game? Nope.
According to a media release from the developer, the agreement between the company and HBO Global Licensing is a "multi-year, multi-title partnership". The Game of Thrones game will be released in episodic format, just like Telltale Games' The Walking Dead game, for consoles, Windows PC, Mac, and mobile devices.

Thief reboot will look better on the PC, winks at next-gen consoles
The upcoming Thief Reboot from Eidos Montreal will be a little special on the PC, even with the next-gen consoles having a air guitar competition over in the corner.
Eidos Montreal's Art Technical Director, Jean-Normand Bucci, said: "The new consoles are very strong, very powerful. They allow for much more than what a console gamer is used to. The gap between PC and next gen has massively reduced for sure. The new consoles and high-end PC offer better frame rate, higher resolution, and many new features along with DX11 support", when talking with DSOGaming.
When Bucci talked about the PC version of Thief, he said: "The PC version will support all the graphical features of the next-gen consoles with numerous improvements, including even better anti-aliasing, higher resolution shadows, and support for multi-monitor. Thief on PC will also be amongst the first batch of games that support AMD's new Mantle API for high performance graphics."
Bucci also teased that Thief for the PC will also include field of view (FOV) and mouse sensitivity options - something that I personally don't think should be highlighted, but default in this day and age - where he stated: "We don't apply acceleration or smoothing to our mouse-based camera controls--we want you to have direct control of Garrett's POV."

EA donates $1.65 million to charity from its Origin Humble Bundle
Say what you want about EA, but any company that donates a large sum of money deserves praise. This even includes the recent issues with Battlefield 4, and SimCity, just to name a few, with the latter title seeing a CEO replacement.
The publisher's COO, Peter Moore, tweeted the picture above this week, where he presented a $1.65 million donation to the American Cancer Society. Shortly after the Origin Humble Bundle went on sale, Moore said that EA could "do better". It would be nice to see EA do this on a regular occasion from its giant-selling games, it could speed up the customer satisfaction it has lost in the recent years.
Star Citizen's team will continue to grow as the game expands
Just like the crowdfunding continues to grow Star Citizen into an unleashed space combat sim beast, the team behind it will also grow as time goes on. The brainchild of Cloud Imperium, and Star Citizen, has said that his team is continuing to expand as the project's needs skyrocket.
Roberts said: "We're expanding wide as well as deep, so we don't just bring on people to handle new components like the boarding actions. We also add to existing teams so that they can do more as well." Roberts also said that Star Citizen is still lifting off in 2015, with an alpha version of the game to be released late next year.
The Division's gorgeous 'Snowdrop Engine' detailed in new video
If there's a game that will make me buy a next-gen console, it will be The Division. The Division's graphics engine, the "Snowdrop Engine" has been detailed in a new video during the VGX show last night.
It looks absolutely incredible, with some truly jaw dropping detail in virtually all areas. There's the truly next-gen procedural damage, which chips away properly at cars, lights, buildings, and everything else. Dynamic weather and lighting effects, a day/night system which looks gorgeous and so much more. The trailer is above, and it needs your attention, now.

Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition headed to next-gen consoles
During VGX, Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition was confirmed for both the Xbox One and PlayStation 4. We heard rumors of this, but it has now been confirmed. The new version of the game will be "re-built specifically" for Microsoft and Sony's next-gen consoles.
The Definitive Edition of the game will feature all of the DLC from Tomb Raider, a digital art book, six outfits for Lara, and a digital comic. What I don't get, is why it needs to be "re-built specifically" for the next-gen consoles, if it was released on PC - which is a platform that completely outstrips every console on the market.
Unless, the developer is going to crank the graphics up even more - but I don't see that happening. Hopefully I'm surprised, though. What do you think? What do you expect from the Definitive Edition of Tomb Raider on the Xbox One and PS4? Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition hits the next-gen consoles on 1/28 in the US, and 30/1 in Europe.

Too often, though, the band takes a "how many sounds can we sample and layer at once?" approach. They're guilty of said trick on songs such as on "Reside Below" and "Everything," with misplaced, incoherent vocals and a multitude of bells and whistles where a back beat is supposed to live. To her credit, vocalist Lena Baisden still manages to do mad atmospheric justice on tunes that have a groove pocket for her smoky alto voice to dip and tumble into, especially on sexy tunes of relationship insanity such as "12 Drinks" and "Stray Cats." Lines like, "You don't think that you and I have something worth my time," from "Stray Cats," sound as if they're lifted straight from the diary of Portishead's Beth Gibbons. Occasionally, Baisden's mates cooperate. "Bena," a heartbreaking saxophone ballad woven tight with sparse drum beats, shows the band's ability to weave deliberately within a reasonable framework. Here, they leave out the unnecessary sparkle, and just ebb and flow together like a bunch of old pros.

Bird Feeders
I'm trying out making bird feeders. I saw an example on the web and ran across a chick feeder so made a few. There is a lot of work involved when you have to find all the right nuts, bolts etc. I finally got the hang of drilling the holes after about 6 shattered plates :). People are always asking me for bird feeders and I hadn't made these type before. I think I might stick to totems and plate flowers.
I use a small relish tray on the bottom. This allows the seed to flow down and out the bottle (or whatever) into the relish tray. YOu can see it on the left and of course, the chandelier birdfeeder on the right
Love the pictures with the birds eating. Love the chandelier idea. How does the seed flow down? Do you use an eye bolt at the top and bottom and not tighten the nuts all the way tight? This is part of the problems I've had trying to keep everything tightened up. I've used nilock nuts and then loctite so the nuts don't unscrew.
Thanks! There are so many different ideas on Garden Web that I like to try to create some of them myself. I do find some of them a little above my comfort zone though. Drilling glass and doing all the hunting for the right size nuts, bolts and rubber washers was more than I bargained for. These will probably be the last bird feeders I make. Oh, Oh, my sister just called and said she found me 4 more chick feeders. hmmmmm can I do 4 more????
I've made about a doz. of the bird feeders with the relish tray on the bottom. I drill the glass and use a threaded hollow rod like is used in the middle of lamps to put them together. You can get them at hardware stores. I usually use a 7" one. I use 2 nuts and 1 washer that fit the rods. I put 1 washer then the nut on the end of the rod. Add the drilled relish dish and secure with the other nut. Stack the other glass pieces on and thread a white plastic coated clothesline up from the bottom through the rod tying a knot at the bottom and leave enough line on the top to be able to remove the lid for filling, and tie a loop for hanging.
Hope you understand this. It's very simple and easy.
Sue, Thank you for the information. My hubby told me I had to put a rubber washer first to protect the glass then a metal one so the nut doesn't wear thru the rubber washer. He thought it would last longer that way. I will go to the hardware store tomorrow and find a threaded hollow rod. That seems like an easy way to make them. I like your idea of using plastic coated clothesline too. Thank you so much.

Manufacturing has changed greatly in the past 20 years in Rhode Island. We've moved from a mass- production environment to a mass-customization environment and many facets of this transformation are now critical to the region's economic vitality. Let's take a look at how local and global influences have had an impact on the Ocean State and how the state can move forward based on what can be learned from its recent experience. more
The Vermont single-payer initiative, which was cited both locally and nationally as a transformational model for a lower-cost health care system, collapsed in the latter part of December. It couldn't work because it tried to replace the employer-based system – one in which a majority of consumers receive health insurance from their employer – with an impractical proposal that would have required $2.5 billion in additional funding (in fiscal 2012, the state had only $2.7 billion in total tax revenue). more
Preet Bharara's March 31 speech was little noticed outside a small gathering of legal and compliance executives in Manhattan. He delivered it on the day Wall Street and the financial news media were obsessing over the contention in Michael Lewis' latest book that high-frequency traders have "rigged" the stock market. more

Recently there has been much discussion about the various means of public support for private historic rehabilitation and other construction projects. There has been criticism, some of it justified, of specific instances of the use of government tools – such as tax-stabilization acts – for promotion of economic activity. While this type of review is always healthy, there is a distinct danger that the larger picture will be missed. more

Tony Thomas | 5/5/14
It turns out that most people who enrolled in health insurance for 2014 through HealthCare.gov didn't bother going back to the site to shop around for better prices for 2015. That means they will pay higher premiums than necessary. It also raises a separate question: What's the point of having options if so few people use them? more

Moral: if you are working on a FOSS project, make sure you have disclaimers in writing from the company you work for. Double if you're the project lead.
Either way, if VMWare press the issue they will simply fork and go away, and VMWare will end as the leader of a deceased project.
It depends how hardball VMware want to play it. If they assert ownership of the code, and decline to release it under an open source licence then they can pretty much kill the fork as well. "Oh sorry, the code you thought was Apache licenced, sorry he had no right to do that - it's ours."
The major difference between bonds and bond traders is that the bonds will eventually mature.

My tiny slice of suburban EdenRank :15Votes:4
I own a very small two-bedroom house which has an even smaller L-shaped back yard. After buying the house and struggling unsuccessfully to make the grass grow under the shade trees (which it just wouldn\'t) I finally decided to dig a fish pond and surround it with gravel and potted plants. After several years of enjoying the pond, the waterfall, and adding some fish, I felt an ongoing desire to \"swim\" in the pond on the hot Texas summer days. Finally, early in 2010 I changed the pond into an in-ground spa-ool that can be heated in winter, and still enjoyed in summer. I have done all the landscaping of my yard myself and it is relatively maintenance free.Comments On This Entry

The project IVEZA was formed in Kragujevac in 2007 by the former members of a local bands. The IVEZA line – up are: Ivan Ivezic-vocal,guitar,songwriter and producer and Malena-vocal,keyboards. It's hard to relegate the project to any musical genre and even the band's members wouldn't like to be relegated. Besides the lyrics written in English language, the main features of the original IVEZA sound are the aggressive guitar, jungle rhythms,house,electro,drum and bass moment… Once someone has described it all as ….newschool/dnb/jungle/electro/house furia….. So far the IVEZA had enormous number of gigs all around Serbia and in several neighborhood countries. They appeared at the best-selling Serbian musical press, in many local TV shows, as well as on the Serbian national TV ("RTS") several times.All songs produce and mastering by member-Ivan Ivezic. Please,listen to IVEZA!!!

In Danielle Steels thrilling new novel, a successful womans seemingly perfect world is shattered when she faces embezzlement by the last person she would ever suspect.
At thirty-nine, Tallie Jones is a Hollywood legend. Her work as a film director is her passion and the center of her life; one after another, her award-winning productions achieve the rare combination of critical and commercial success. With no interest in the perks of her profession or the glitz and glamour of Los Angeles, Tallie maintains close and loving relationships with her college-age daughter and her aging father, and has a happy collaboration with Hunter Lloyd, her respected producing partner, confidant, and live-in lover. Rounding out the circle and making it all work is Brigitte Parker, Tallies devoted personal assistant. Friends since film school, they are a study in contrasts, with Brigittes polished glamour balancing Tallies artless natural beauty, and her hard-driving, highly organized style a protective shield for Tallies casual, down-to-earth approach.
As Tallie is in the midst of directing the most ambitious film she has yet undertaken, small disturbances begin to ripple through her well-ordered world. An outside audit reveals troubling discrepancies in the financial records maintained by Victor Carson, Tallies longtime, trusted accountant. Mysterious receipts hint at activities of which she has no knowledge. Soon it becomes clear that someone close to Tallie has been steadily funneling away enormous amounts of her money. In the wake of an escalating series of shattering revelations, Tallie will find herself playing the most dangerous game of allto trap a predator stalking her in plain sight.
In this riveting novel, Danielle Steel reveals the dark side of fame and fortune. At the same time, she brilliantly captures a womans will to navigate a minefield of hurt and losstoward a new beginning.

It's Home Run Derby for Padres
The Royals scored another run on an RBI single by Alberto Castillo and a wild pitch before Trevor Hoffman was retired Damian Jackson and David DeJesus for his 19th save of the season.
In his return from a 41-day stay on the disabled list with a strained flexor tendon in his right forearm, Padres starter Jake Peavy allowed just three hits and a run over 5 1/3 innings. He threw 89 pitches, 59 for strikes, and his fastball was consistently clocked at 93-94 mph.
"Before he went on the DL, Jake was basically a fastball-slider pitcher," said Padres pitching coach Darren Balsley. "So maybe this stay on the DL was a blessing in disguise. We think the slider is the pitch that bothered him.
"So I'd like to eliminate either the slider or the cutter from his arsenal, so he can be more consistent with two pitches. Jake's one of the few pitchers who can throw just two pitches in a game and get away with it."
With the win, Peavy improved to 5-2 and lowered his ERA to 1.98.

The Space
" A conserved, period villa situated in the midst of the "lung" of Barcelona.Unbeatably situated within the metropolitan area of Barcelona and in the midst of the Collserola Nature Reserve. A beautiful, 1930s house, pleasantly situated in typically Mediterranean woodland with terraces. Recently restored maintaining its original, officially catalogued style. , at an unbelievable 15 minutes by metro from the Ramblas and at only 3 minutes walk from the nearest station, Les Planes. Surounded by nature, wildlife and silence, yet maintaining the advantages of a great city, the house is ideal for combining work and holidaying, creativity and culture activities or simply enjoying moments of tranquility away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Consisting of two-floors, the house is spacious and comfortable. On the upper floor there are 3 bedrooms and a small studio, a bathroom and a terrace with lovely, parkland views. On the lower floor there is a self-contained single bedroom, equipped with a shower; a living room with a sofa-bed; an American style kitchen-dining room; and a hall. A spacious garden terrace surrounds the house which is itself, surrounded by mixed woodland and attractive villas. On the garden terrace there are numerous spots in which to relax and read, chat, play table-tennis or make bar-b-ques. Surrounded as it is by trees, the house is cool and fresh on summer nights. "

This location is just perfect. There are several beautiful places around the house to relax at every daytime. In 15 minutes you reach the city center by train. We had a great time. Thanks for all.
Villa as lovely as the photos suggest ! The inside stays cool during the hot summer days and conversely you won't get chilly when the nights are fresh. Getting to the heart of Barcelona only takes a bit more than 15 minutes so accessibility is not a problem during the day - however late at night the distance does become a bit problematic, as trains stop running at 11:30pm (except on Friday and Saturday nights). The setting is great, in particular the view of Les Planes at dusk !
Beatriz was very kind and welcoming, she provided us with a few addresses and some useful tips concerning transports, etc. She was also always available whenever we had questions.
Be wary of staying on the large terrace behind the house late at night, neighbours are close and may be disturbed even if you are simply chatting.
All in all, thanks to Beatriz for a very pleasant stay in Barcelona !
Very beautiful view from the villa!
Cristina and Roman are super nice people!
Easy to get to the center of the city.
Wonderful experience for everybody who want to spend lovely time in Barcelona!
Best wishes for all the tenants after!
Cristina's (aka Beatriz's) villa is lovely and, as many others have noted, extremely convenient to the center of Barcelona. It was wonderful to be ensconced in what felt like a small mountain village (that included daily encounters with some friendly local wild boars on the 5 min. walk to the train station), and yet have just a 20 min. trip to Barri Gothic, Barceloneta and all the pleasures of our favorite neighborhoods. Cristina is very warm and friendly, and graciously welcomed our group with cake, muffins, fruit and coffee. She provided insider tips about restaurants and activities, made phone calls on our behalf, and offered practical suggestions about how to avoid lines at popular tourist sights. She also responded immediately when we had problems with the bathroom drain -- it was repaired the following morning. Two of the three upstairs bedrooms have french doors that open out onto the beautiful terrace overlooking the town. The downstairs bedroom is small and directly off the kitchen, but it does have a private bath. There is a large patio with ample outside space and a ping-pong table that helped keep the kids occupied. One key issue: if you are heading to the villa from the airport, either have Cristina arrange a taxi for you, or take the airport shuttle to Plaza Catalunya and get on the FGC train (which is right there in Catalunya) to the Les Planes station (just north of the city). The villa can be quite difficult to find by car -- most taxi drivers have no idea how to get there, so the fare can get quite high if they get lost! Overall, a wonderful place to stay and get the best of all worlds -- country and city! Many thanks, Cristina!
Lovely villa and beautiful views and surroundings. A perfect base while visiting Barcelona. Very easy to go by subway to the city; only 3 minutes walk to the station (Les Planes) and in 15 minutes by train you are in the middle of the city. Christina is very nice and helpful.
We would love to come back some day!
This is a great base for exploring Barcelona and Catalunya. In a leafy suburb, but a 20 minute subway ride from the city center. Ideal for a family with kids who have space to run around in the garden. Beatriz is a wonderful host who goes out of her way to make you feel welcome (for it included making a doctor appointment for my daughter and helping to set up a business meeting in Barcelona. Recommended!
