Officers with the Scottsburg police and the Sheriff's Department quickly reacted to a report on July 11 of a man who allegedly choked a woman and stole jewelry from her.
Deputy Rodney Rudder, Scottsburg Patrolman Trevis Burr and Capt. David Hardin were dispatched to Boatman Road and State Road 56 West around 9:30 a.m. concerning the incident. Capt. Hardin was holding a man whom he had located around a nearby business, and Sheriff's Reserve Deputy Bobby Thompson was talking to a woman by the time Deputy Rudder arrived.
The woman said she had picked up the man, whom she identified as Michael Chad Robinson, 38, at an Austin gas station. She said she was giving him a ride. When they got to the stop at Boatman Road and S.R. 56, she said Robinson grabbed her by the throat and then took a box of jewelry she had in the car. He got out of the car and headed north on foot, the woman said.
Employees of a nearby business saw the man walking around the front of their building. They noticed when officers arrived, the man went to the back of the building as if he was allegedly hiding from the police. Both said they saw the man had something in his hands.
Ptl. Burr searched around the building and located a box of jewelry, a glass pipe and an open pack of cigarettes. Inside the pack were small plastic wrapper which contained methamphetamine, it was learned. A GPS unit was also found with the other items.
When Robinson was being booked in at the Scott County Security Center, jailers said they located a card reader, a device which can record information from a credit or debit card, in his shorts.
Robinson appeared in Scott Circuit Court on July 14 for an initial hearing, during which a preliminary plea of not guilty was entered for him on Level 3 felony robbery, Level 6 felony possession of methamphetamine and two misdemeanor charges of battery and possession of drug paraphernalia.
His bail was fixed at $75,000 by corporate surety bond or $25,000 cash, and he was ordered to have no contact with the alleged victim of the crime.
A public defender was assigned to the case, which has been initially set for a jury trial on November 19.

Out against Berdych
Sorry to say that Roger lost in the semi finals of the Dubai Open to Tomas Berdych. In the first set he was strong and positive winning 6-3, then followed a score line of 6-7(8), 4-6 to see the match finish in favour of Berdych. The tiebreaker in the second set was back & forth with Berdych coming out the eventual winner – at one point our Champ was 5-4 in the tiebreak but could not convert this in to a set win. Berdych then upped his game and went on to win the 3rd set 6-4 helped by some untypical Roger errors. "Pity to lose that one, but Tomas did well to hang in there," Roger said. "Obviously I leave this match with a lot of regrets. "You do all the right things for so long, and then at the end you've got to explain why you didn't hit two shots decent," he said. "So it's disappointing."
Take it easy and WIN next time!!! Love you mucho
Tough day :( You're still the best! Take it easy and get ready for Indian Wells! Good luck with everything and I'll be cheering for you as always! :)
Your biggest fan,
Go for next one, enjoy the break and the training meanwhile.

Viewers partake in many joyous celebrations with the loveable Walton\'s clan, during the sixth season of this poignant classic series. John Boy (Richard Thomas) comes home from New York, participates in the re-opening of the old Guthrie mine, and also proposes to Daisy Garner (Deirdre Lenihan). Another significant homecoming is that of Grandma Esther (Ellen Corby), who is finally released from the hospital into the care of her loving family. The Walton\'s welcome a new addition to the family when Mary Ellen (Judy Norton-Taylor) and Curt (Tom Bower) have a baby boy named John Curtis. John and Olivia celebrate their 25th wedding anniversary and John discovers the family is nearly out of their debt. But the joy is fleeting when it\'s set against the tragedy of events in the outside world. As the fall of 1939 turns into the spring of 1940, war rages in Europe and the Waltons are soon caught in its chilling grasp. Curt is called up for duty and soldiers train on Walton property. The first local enlistee dies. British children flee the Blitz for the safety of the Blue Ridge Mountains. The Depression may finally be ending but even tougher times lay ahead.

I have only seen One or Two transactions from Privacy Matters and the rest are from 24 Protect Plus for 29.95 and all in the month of August. 24 Protect Plus has stole over 100 dollars from me.
When I cought on to what was going on I immediately Privacy matters to cancel and they said they did and that all refunds would be on your next billing cycle. Well today is August 26th and I just received another transaction for 29.95 from 24 Protect Plus when there should have been a few refunds already. It seems like the more you confront them about what is going on, the more they steal from you and don't give a number to call to talk to a representative

We were contacted and were offered some office suppllies from a company that was going out of business. These supplies were to be sent at a reduced rate totalling $78.62. The supplies that were sent were not what was ordered. We attempted to reach OMNI several times to return the items. Finally we spoke to Kelly Martin who told there was a 15% restocking fee so we decided it would be cheaper to keep the items. We were very surprised to receive a bill in the mail in the amount of $3587.70. We have had harrassing phone calls from OMNI and have told them not to call us again. They said they would call 6 times a day if they wanted to. We told them we would send the products back but we would not pay for them.

Have you felt 'left out' of the traditional relationship self-help books because you derive great pleasure from following your partner's requests and direction on many things in your life? Or do you respond to the natural inclination to guide, direct and protect your partner? Are your friends and family having difficulty understanding that your relationship works more like a captain and first mate on a boat?
If so, this innovative book, Leading and Supportive Love, the Truth about Dominant and Submissive Relationships, can help with new and clearer understanding of yourself, your relationship and acceptance with those that you love and care for.
The Dominant and Submissive Relationship is an ancient and contemporary harmonious dance that has become mysterious, magnetic, powerful, and controversial in modern day society. It may not be what you think, and some of the truth may surprise you!
It's a law of nature for socialized animals and humans to have hierarchical relationships. There are those who answer that call in a more literal, thorough way. The couple has a "pack leader", or a dominant leader; and a submissive member. Through history to modern day, both roles have been held by both men and/or women...Oh and yes, this is a relationship where both partners are equals.
Read about case illustrations, research insights, relationship help, and surprising details that may make you look at this type of long-term, committed relationship in a whole different way, no matter what gender you are!
Do you identify with one of these lists of traits? Most people either do identify or know
someone who does. If so, this unprecedented book is for you!
- Service to your partner is of great priority to you and you take it very seriously.
- Decisiveness, direction, and guidance from your partner makes you feel secure and loved.
- You avoid conflict and are generally non-confrontative in nature in close relationships.
- You greatly appreciate your partner being clear and direct with communication, so there are no doubts about what the expectations are.
- You appreciate the freedom that comes from structure, surrender, and personal discipline.
- You have natural dominant traits and seem comfortable and confident when using them.
- You place an importance on follow-through and follow-up from your partner.
- You step into your natural abilities to lead, guide, protect and direct.
- It's important to you that you earn trust from your partner. You will not ask for it or demand it up front.
- You feel safe, secure and valued when your partner trusts you to lead and make decisions in the areas agreed upon.

As was the case last week in Jacksonville, Tampa Bay's offense struggled on the first day of joint practices with Cleveland and will look to rebound on Wednesday.
They may be nominally battling for a top spot on the depth chart, but tight ends Cameron Brate and Austin Seferian-Jenkins believe they can combine to produce big numbers for the Buccaneers.

AT the end of the day I still saw nothing ,I started to fell unsure about something, so I tried to find this company on line again to see if there was a contact# . I could not find them in my browser,so I went to google.com and put in free grants. I did not see them , but I saw a link for GRANT SCAMS ,4 OR 5 LISTINGS . I clicked on it just to see. It stated many fake companys out there , as many as 90% of them were no good, but they did say PLEASE LOOK AT THE # 1 PICK, so I clicked on it. Thats right it was the one I was looking for The Grant University . I said thank god I got a good one.
So I started to feel good ., but something just kept telling me to keep looking. I went to 4-5 more links all difirent web sites and they kept saying that this company was the best ,The Grant University .I still felt something was wrong,so I went back to each link to look for contact info for ea company , and the were all the same e mail to nothing .I then went to YELLOW PAGES .COM and did a search nation wide and came up with nothing. Thats when I found all of your reports about this company. I then contacted my credit card company and reported my card was lost .It was a close call . The only thing I lost was 2.95 and a nights sleep and a 10 day wait for another card. It could had been much worse if it was not for all of you doing the right thing and taking the time to tell your story, it goes to show that a few can make a differance.
I did contact them this morning to cancel, they gave me three different codes . I told them to email to me, they said ok. I called back three times and spoke to three different persons and three hrs later still nothing. here are some links to look out for. THANKS AGAIN EVERYONE.

An update (Dec 2008) on waterfront values:
Obviously being fewer in number and greater in demand, waterfront properties hold their value well in Provincetown. And I agree with my colleague Bob O'Malley, who has a much longer perspective than I (I started in real estate here in 1993) that generalization is perilous because of the small numbers we work with.
And of course there are niceties: West End is in higher demand than East, new constrction with all the bells and whistles(yes s/s and granite Im afraid) sells faster and at a higher price than older conversions; parking is VERY important; and the right to do WEEKLY rentals is critical.
Here are some telling examples:
In 2005 and 2006 brand new units in the East End(at September Morn) were selling at $1200/sf
In Dec 2006 a unit sold at Fisherman;s Cove ( an '80's conversion) for $510,000 ( 1Br with parking, direct water view, 470 sf) =$1085/sf
In Dec 2008 a 1 Br at Jones Locker with parking and good but not great water views (a late 80's conversion, the unit upgraded 2 yrs ago) is selling for about $460,000 for 600 sf =$765/sf
I think the old rule of thumb--$800 to - $1000 /sf (dependiing upon the niceties), holds.
Len Bowen
Generally speaking the decline in water front in Provincetown has been about 15-20% since 2005, the peak in this reporter's opinion. but one has to be very wary when looking at statistics in our market. As we are a tiny Town, the data can be skewed by just a few sales. And water front values also vary dramatically from the Truro line to the far West End.
The second response to this question is fraught with errors. First, 476 Commercial St., is not on the water. Second, there are two adjacent properties that were in joint ownership. The one that sold was a small but very cute cottage at the rear of the property, on a separate parcel. The one that is for sale is a multi-unit with 5 or 6 apartments. It is a true Provincetown landmark building and fairly priced in my opinion. This is not a flip but a totally separate listing.
Even though they are my competitors, the comments about the listing agent is totally unfair. She is a 1st class pro!
Robert O'Malley
Beachfront Realty
I love Provincetown...My mother in law studied at the Cape School of Art for many years, and we have quite a bit of art that was created in Provincetown.
To answer your question, there has been about a 25% decline in the median home value in Provincetown over the last 12 months.
I hope this helps.

Album Review: Nine Inch Nails, 'Hesitation Marks'
Nine Inch Nails have had plenty of time and space to regroup. New "Hesitation Marks" is the industrial rockers' first in five years, and first since taking time off from touring in as many moons. It's a fresh lineup and, in the time in-between, Trent Reznor has won and Oscar, launched How To Destroy Angels with his wife and longtime collaborator Atticus Ross and, apparently, made amends with a major labels in time to launch a proper campaign to push a significant and solid radio single.

James DeGale Admits He Had Thoughts of Leaving Boxing
James DeGale MBE says that he is in the right place physically and mentally as he faces Brandon Gonzales in an IBF World Super Middleweight title eliminator on the biggest night of his career on Saturday at Wembley Stadium connected by EE, live on Sky Sports Box Office.
'Chunky' tackles the unbeaten American with a fight against either champion Carl Froch or challenger George Groves waiting for the victor later this year, as they renew hostilities in a rematch on the top of the bill.
DeGale has won eight on the spin since his controversial defeat to Groves in May 2011, but despite landing the European title and then the WBC Silver crown in impressive fashion, the Harlesden star was close to quitting in the autumn after growing disillusioned with the sport.
With a World title shot within touching distance and a huge fight on the biggest stage in Britain, DeGale is feeling revitalised now though, and he's in the right frame of mind to get the job done – thanks to a pep talk from his mum.
"I'm a whole new person, I'm the real James DeGale now – I haven't felt like this since the first time I started boxing as a pro," said DeGale. "A couple of months back I was in a difficult situation and there was a period where I was thinking 'I'm going to give up'.
"I had three months last autumn when I was doing the sums, and talking to my parents about leaving the sport. I really was deeply depressed about it all. Boxing has been my life since I was 11 years old and it was all I knew. I have invested in a couple of properties from the money I have earned in boxing as a professional and I wondered if it was time to walk away.
"I was horrible to be around, always moaning, depressed. Then my mum said to me 'Stop being stupid, everything's going to work out right', and I just snapped out of it. Now I'm just a whole new person, loving life and loving boxing."
DeGale stopped unbeaten Dutchman Gevorg Khatchikian in the 11th round of their clash in Bristol in March to defend his WBC belt for the third time, and it was a significant night for DeGale as he was able to box for the first time injury-free for over a year.
The 28 year old has been patiently waiting for his shot at a World title but with Gonzales bringing a big reputation over from Oregon, DeGale knows there's no room for slip-ups in his first fight under new promoter Eddie Hearn.
"You can definitely say that it is make or break, 100 per cent," said DeGale. "If I win this fight I get the winner of Froch and Groves and I'm making it, and if I lose, where do I go? I'm back to rebuilding. So this is win or bust really, I just have to win this fight, have to. Brandon Gonzales is no joke; he's unbeaten, he has a good trainer in Virgil Hunter and mixes in the gym with Andre Ward and Amir Khan, he's serious and I've taken him that way.
"I've watched a lot of footage of him and I'm feeling good about the fight. I'm injury-free and mentally I am in a good place, I'm happy. They say that a happy fighter is a good fighter, I believe that and I think you will see that."
DeGale's clash with Gonzales provides the chief-support to Froch's grudge match with Groves at the national stadium.
Jamie McDonnell has the chance to become a two-time World champion when he takes on Tabtimdaeng Na Rachawat for the vacant WBA Bantamweight title, Kevin Mitchell meets Ghislain Maduma in a final eliminator for the IBF Lightweight title and Olympic Gold medal hero Anthony Joshua MBE faces Matt Legg in his sixth pro contest.

"The report we are launching today clearly demonstrates how the UNDP-EU partnership can advance human development around the world, and make a difference where it matters the most," said Rebeca Grynspan, UNDP Associate Administrator, when she, together with Mr. Frutuoso de Melo, Director-General of DG DEVCO, presented the first-ever report on the partnership between UNDP and the EU.
Taking a ten-year perspective, the report 'Towards a Life of Dignity for All – 10 Years of UNDP-EU Strategic Partnership' presents the context, rationale and added value of the partnership; takes stock of achievements in the last decade (2004-2013); and discusses the opportunities and challenges for the partnership in the future, framed in the context of a changing world. The reason for it being published now is that 2014 marks the 10th anniversary of the Strategic Partnership Agreement between UNDP and the European Commission, which was jointly signed in 2004.
"Because we share the same… values of respect and dignity of every human being, of justice and shared prosperity, and care for the planet, the European Union is also a natural – and important – partner to UNDP, and to the UN overall, in advancing peace and security, human rights and human development" said Rebeca Grynspan at the report launch in the European Parliament.
One of the key factors that make the partnership special is that the cooperation takes place at the policy, advocacy, knowledge sharing and programmatic levels, each feeding and complementing one another. Thus, the partnership adds value at the level of international policy and norms, but also translates these into practical realities on the ground to improve lives. Indeed, the results presented in the report show how international partnerships can successfully facilitate nationally driven and owned economic, social and political change.
In the last decade, the EU has provided EUR 3.3 billion to UNDP's activities in 115 countries (many more if including also regional and global programmes) through the signature of around 800 contracts.
Some key results include:
The report demonstrates that the UNDP-EU partnership makes a difference where it matters most – in improving the lives of people, around the world. However, the report argues that there is scope to deepen the partnership in areas where it clearly demonstrates an added value, and venturing into new, emerging areas where the partnership has potential to make an important impact.
"For our partnership to continue to be of value to those who need it the most, we need to keep pace with a challenging development landscape and the ever evolving needs and demands of our partner countries", said Ms. Grynspan.
The report complements the annual United Nations-European Union reports (the 'Improving Lives' series), which focus on the global partnership between the wider UN-family and the EU in a given year.

Hope you had a good Christmas, Scott.
It's still better than Star Wars. ;)
As a Niven fan, I liked the episode taken from his work including a Kzin crewman. The new movie series should go into the Man-Kzin Wars &/or Klingo-Kzin Wars.
As I was there from the date TOS aired on NBC, I disagree with the results of the toon's argument. I liked a lot of ST Enterprise due to Scott Bakula. The recent JJ Abrams movie w/young (re)cast, was pretty good too.
People (meaning mutual fans) need to give Enterprise a chance, it had it's rough moments like any other (Voyager, yeesh…) but rocked otherwise…. you get used to the theme song eventually.
Voyager is the best series!
I liked the 1970's cartoon as canon. Didn't like "Enterprise" because it changed the original history of the show. The Terran-Romulan war happened before warp ships were in use and yet they hadn't fought them yet in the show. "Voyger" (after the first 3 years) got really good, also like "DS9" too.

Why Apple's Samsung Suit Is Such A Big Deal in Korea
From Korea Real Time:
The news of Apple Inc.'s lawsuit against Samsung Electronics Co. was buried inside the business sections of U.S. papers but it made the front pages of South Korean ones.
That difference reflects, in part, Samsung's huge role in the South Korean economy. It is by far the nation's largest business by revenue, profit, number of employees, stock market value and value of exports.
Portrayals of Samsung in the South Korean media are shaped by three forces – pride in its accomplishments as a world leader in high technology, anxiety about its power in the national economy and fear of it as the biggest advertiser in the country.
But the big attention on the Apple lawsuit against Samsung reflects another force – a kind of anxiety about Apple since the introduction of the iPhone here in late 2009.
Before then, Apple was a non-entity in South Korea. An obscure national regulation on encryption technology (abolished last year) meant that all online transactions had to be done with Microsoft Corp.'s Internet Explorer browser, which couldn't be used on Apple's Macintosh computers and relegated them to less than 1% of South Korea's PC market.
And until August 2009, another regulation kept the iPhone and smartphones like Research in Motion Inc.'s Blackberry off of the nation's big cellphone networks.
When that regulation fell, South Koreans rushed to buy the iPhone in what the South Korean media called the "Apple shock." The product shattered the image many South Koreans had that no cellphones could compare with those from Samsung or its crosstown rival LG Electronics Co.
And a theme soon developed in the tech coverage of South Korean media. It's most simply put as: Apple is beating Samsung and LG and this can't be good for South Korea since they are important to the national economy.
Apple's lawsuit, which says Samsung "slavishly" copied some of Apple's designs, fits that media theme and the anxiety underlying it. On to the front pages the story went.
Trouble is, the numbers have never supported the theme. Samsung (and LG, for that matter) sells more phones in South Korea than Apple does, not to mention producing far more products and generating more sales than Apple worldwide. And, as the more-nuanced coverage in South Korea points out, Apple gets many parts for its products from Samsung and other South Korean firms, creating mutual success.

"RE: First real 'photograph' with new D700"
Hi FriendsThanks for the interest. Long story just got them downloaded yesterday then found I couldnt post photos unless I was a paid member. I'll have to set that up then I'll post the pictures.Now that I have your attention I hope they dont entirely disappoint. Im still in that what am I doing wrong phase. Part of it may be more camera setup, some may be lost technique. I think that though my heart was in the right place, trying to learn with manual lenses might be the problem. I may need at least one good auto lens to get me started.Thanks

What is Tomahawk?
Tomahawk is a service and leadership honor society, and as such, Tomahawk selects outstanding, independent students of freshman level or above who have shown leadership characteristics in campus activities. By bringing these leaders together, Tomahawk hopes to further develop each student's abilities as well as broaden the scope of each member through a one semester pledge-ship and activities put forth by the organization.
Through dedication to this organization, all Tomahawk members help stimulate interest in the benefits derived from the participation in all activities.
- To give recognition to independent students for outstanding work in student activities and organizations
- To stimulate interest in and to cooperate with student organizations and activities
- To provide opportunities in leadership for its members
- To be of service to the college community
- To act as an athletic boosting organization
Each Tomahawk member's primary focus is on being of service to the college community. Throughout each semester, we provide many opportunities for the active members to be constantly engaged in various service events and projects around campus. To create a comfortable and family-like environment, our social coordinators plan multiple events for active members to attend throughout the semester. Aside from the service and social aspect, Tomahawk also acts as an active and athletic-boosting organization. Members may compete in intramural sports as a team in numerous sports offered by the Division of Recreational Sports. The ultimate purpose behind the service, social, and athletics is to support the Five Functions of Tomahawk.

Exciting Reasons To Start Skydive
We want a little adventure in life and one sport that can give the thrill many of us are looking for is sky diving. Although this activity doesn't require a lot of effort, there's a good amount of discipline and some physical activity involved. While there are lots of other extreme sports, there is nothing as amazing as skydiving. Here are exciting reasons to start sky dive.
Anyone can Enjoy Skydiving
Anyone can enjoy sky diving regardless of their age. As long as you don't have a heart condition or physical disability that could cause problems during the dive, you can skydive. Some families partake in skydiving activities and purchase packages designed for the whole family. You can learn how to make formations and how to break it as well as how to successfully land. This is also a great way to train aspiring competitive skydivers.
Low Fatality Rate
Skydiving has less than one percent fatality rate. Almost two million jumps are done every year and only thirty-five fatalities are recorded. Those incidents are usually caused by not following jumping procedures. The low fatality rate is due to safety equipment, safety precautions and extensive training that guarantee a safe landing.
Freestyle Skydiving
If you are looking for more excitement, you can engage in freestyle sky diving. You are free to do acrobatic moves. The overall concept is similar to extreme sports such as freestyle skiing. You can join skydiving competitions and show off your moves.
Sky diving adventures are offered at reasonable prices. A lot of air yards provide sky diving. You can also choose from different instruction companies. If you are looking forward to an exciting weekend activity with your friends or family, joining skydiving activities is one of the best choices you have. As the adventures are very affordable and there are many instruction companies to pick from, you'll surely be able to enjoy this sport without breaking the bank.
Solo or Group
If you want to skydive alone, you are free to do so. Skydiving can also be done in groups. Some couples choose to exchange their vows in the sky. Others choose to sky dive to celebrate anniversaries or birthdays. Some engage in skydiving just to experience how exciting this sport is. There are packages available to groups and individuals who want to sky dive. Packages for groups may come with discounts to help you save money.
Improve Your Skills
Skydiving is a sport where you can begin and remain slow for as long as you want. If you think you're not yet ready to take it to the next level, you don't need to do it. Over time, you'll be able to do a few flips and jump on your own.
Safety Equipment and Training
The first dives are done either bound or harnessed to an instructor. Before the jump, participants are trained and given the necessary safety equipment and proper instructions. There's always backup equipment to ensure everyone's safety.
Why Enroll in Skydiving Classes?
You cannot jump out of the plane unprepared. Enrolling in skydiving classes is a must. You need to remember that there's a small amount of risk associated with this sport, so lessons are really needed. It is possible to get your skydiving certification fast, depending on the skydiving methodology used and your instructors. You might even get your certification in as fast as two days.
Pay attention to your classes and don't be afraid to ask questions. If there's anything that is not clear to you, ask your instructor about it right away. There's nothing insignificant discussed in these classes. You'll learn how to use the equipment and hand signals so that you can communicate with others while in the air. All important information will be covered in these classes.
Once you've learned how to use the equipment and how to handle yourself while skydiving, you'll feel more confident than before. You will also be more prepared to jump out of the plane. Remember that preparation is very important. Skydiving can be fun, but going without learning the necessary safety precautions can be extremely dangerous. With the right number of classes, you'll be more than prepared to experience the thrill of skydiving.
It takes more than a bit of mental training to be prepared to jump off a plane and fall at speeds beyond one hundred miles per hour. No one also expects a first timer to start doing amazing flips as soon as they jump out of the plane. The first jump is normally done harnessed or bound to a coach or what is referred to as tandem skydiving. This allows you to try what skydiving is really all about. After the first time, this sport becomes addictive that you'd definitely want to come back for more.
There are many exciting reasons why you should start skydiving. Aside from being a sport with a low fatality rate, skydiving is also unique. Enroll in a skydiving class and experience what this sport has to offer!

Albany to become Berkeley's 9th council district
Update, April 2: This was indeed an April Fools' Day story. We hope you enjoyed!
Original post, April 1: In an early morning press conference hosted jointly by the Berkeley and Albany city councils, it was announced Friday the city of Albany is on track to become Berkeley's ninth council district.
"Albany has always been thought of as the northern suburb of Berkeley," explained Albany Rotary Chamber Chair and U.C. Professor of Geosociology Aileen Wright. "The two cities have common historical roots: If not for a misunderstanding about garbage disposal in 1909, Albany would never have been incorporated as a separate town. In fact, Albany's original name was Ocean View, same as the Ocean View that became part of Berkeley. Culturally, the two cities have become more-or-less indistinguishable."
"I'm tired of having to explain to people from all over the U.S. that I have nothing to do with that city in upstate New York," complained Mayor Pete Maass of Albany. "From now on, I'll be a Berkeley politico, and everyone the world over knows exactly what that means." … Continue reading »
NOSH neighborhood guide: San Pablo Ave., Albany
We know there's more to East Bay dining than Temescal, Rockridge and the Gourmet Ghetto. NOSH's neighborhood guides explore the best of the rest. This month, we explore the Albany stretch of San Pablo Avenue.
With all the talk about the rise of Oakland and Emeryville bars and restaurants, it may be easy to dismiss other East Bay cities as culinary destinations. We'd like you to resist that urge. Albany, for one, is full of hidden gems and classic bars, and the city's options are only getting better. (See our story on the transformation of the Ivy Room.) In fact, this city of only 2 square miles has so many of our favorite spots that we've divided up our neighborhood guide in two. This month, we trek down San Pablo Avenue. Look for our guide to Solano in the near future. … Continue reading »

UC Gill Tract Farm blooms amidst controversy
On a Sunday in early August, about 20 volunteers milled around the UC Gill Tract Community Farm, plucking weeds, harvesting tomatoes and weighing buckets brimming with leafy kale.
"What are we supposed to do with aphids again?" said Vivek Nath, a first-time volunteer, as he bent over to pick broccolini.
"They're the little green bugs, you take off the pieces with a lot of them," replied fellow volunteer Allen Barth. "Chickens like to eat 'em."
A collaborative project between UC Berkeley and the public, the UC Gill Tract Community Farm is a year-and-a-half old urban farm that has sprouted up on land embroiled in years-long controversy. Open six days a week, people can harvest organic produce in exchange for help weeding, watering or planting. On Sundays, volunteers set up a farm stand where all the food is free or offered for a donation. … Continue reading »
Hal's Office coffee shop headed to Solano Avenue
Albany is about to get a bit more caffeinated.
Construction has begun on a new coffee shop at 1207 Solano Ave., the former location of Hal Hoffman's notary and real-estate business. Called, appropriately, Hal's Office, the new café is a project of Bonnee and Abraham Elterman, the owners of As You Wish, the frozen yogurt joint next door.
"We wanted to honor Hal and hope to maintain this location as a meeting place for locals to gather," said Bonnee Elterman this week.
Read more about East Bay coffee roasters.
Hal's Office will be serving coffee from Bay Area newcomer Counter Culture Coffee. The North Carolina-based company opened its first West Coast roasting and training facility in Emeryville this spring. (Learn more about Counter Culture coffee in our tour of the roasting facility.) Counter Culture is still only in a few local coffee shops, so Hal's Office will stand out. … Continue reading »
Berkeley softball field named in honor of Jane Hammond
A once-nameless field in Berkeley will now honor one woman's achievement in a local softball league, with the approval last week by the City Council to name the Codornices Park field the "Jane Hammond Field."
Bestselling Berkeley author Michael Lewis, whose daughter plays for the Albany Berkeley Girls Softball League (ABGSL), and who coaches one of its teams, is among the many who are delighted with the decision. Lewis said Hammond, who has devoted 25 years to the league to date, brings a persuasiveness to recruiting and retaining players from many different backgrounds, with graduates of her program going on to receive college athletic scholarships.
Read Michael Lewis on the unique Berkeley spirit of the ABGSL.
"It's fair to say that the players my kids play with have overlapped from other schools and crowds that otherwise we wouldn't have been with," Lewis said. "Communities are stitched together by people like her, and it's nice just to acknowledge all the works she's done." … Continue reading »
University Village, Sprouts get (final) green light
The disputed UC Berkeley land next to Albany's Gill Tract is in contention no more. Last week, the California Court of Appeals ruled in favor of the university to build a senior housing development and Sprouts Farmers Market grocery store on San Pablo Avenue in University Village.
Read more on Berkeleyside's coverage of Occupy the Farm.
The development, on a long-vacant lot next to the Gill Tract research field, has been the site of protests since April 2012 on the part of Occupy the Farm, which has stated that UC Berkeley's plans would "pave over a rare natural resource" and that the Gill Tract is "public farmland that belongs to the people."
Stefanie Rawlings, of Occupy the Farm, originally filed a lawsuit against the city of Albany and UC Berkeley that alleged that the city's approved Environmental Impact Report was deficient. When Rawlings lost the suit, she filed an appeal on the grounds that the report did not lay out appropriate alternatives for the building plan, and that the city did not appropriately consider the alternatives listed. … Continue reading »
Bites: Millennium on for Rockridge, Vampire Penguin
Openings, closings…
VAMPIRE PENGUIN HAS THE GREEN LIGHT Berkeley will soon have its own shaved ice restaurant. We brought you news about Vampire Penguin, the popular Sacramento-based Taiwanese dessert restaurant, last fall. The restaurant now has its hands on a building permit, and manager Anthony Bai hopes to be open by mid-May. Vampire Penguin specializes in gourmet shaved ice — made primarily of fruit concentrate, sugar and non-dairy cream — with a variety of flavors and toppings like fruit, oats, taro, condensed milk, candies and other treats. It's a potent combination; one Sacramento news outlet named the product, also known as "shaved snow," the "best mouthgasam" in the city. Vampire Penguin will be at 2575 Telegraph Ave. (at Parker Street), Berkeley. Connect with the restaurant on Facebook. … Continue reading »

53 trees come down on UC Berkeley land as grocery store, senior living project kicks off
UC Berkeley has begun the process of removing dozens of trees from its University Village property in Albany as work begins on a vacant lot slated for development that has been the site of numerous protests in recent years.
University spokeswoman Christine Shaff said Thursday afternoon by email that 53 trees will be removed from the property, on San Pablo Avenue near Monroe Street. Those trees will be replaced on a 2.5-to-1 basis, she added.
The project, which received formal approval last year from the Albany City Council "will bring senior housing and retail, including a grocery store, to serve nearby student-family housing as well as the Albany and west Berkeley communities," Shaff said. … Continue reading »
The best bets for SF Beer Week in the East Bay
SF Beer Week, which kicks off on Friday, is a monster of an event, with countless happenings hosted across the Bay Area over the course of ten days. Its online schedule is almost impossibly long, even when it filters out events outside of the East Bay. But don't be discouraged — we've done the hard work for you and picked out our best bets for the week, including three Pliny the Younger sightings and an array of sweet (and less-so) events for Valentine's Day.
"Lost in the Woods" at The Good Hop This New Belgium-sponsored tasting is your only opportunity to taste the 2015 La Foile, a Flanders-style sour brown ale, and the 2015 Transatlantique Kriek, a lambic produced in collaboration with Belgium's Oud Beersel. They'll also be pouring a third New Belgium barrel-aged sour one-off and will hold a web-toast with the different brewers. The $40 event includes three 5-ounce tastings, food pairings, a globe glass and one 22-ounce bottle of La Folie or Transatlantique Kriek to take home. Those not wishing to pay the ticket price can still taste the beers on their own, but they will be served at full price.
Saturday Feb. 7, 5 to 8 p.m. Tickets are available at Brown Paper Tickets. The Good Hop, 2421 Telegraph Ave., Oakland. … Continue reading »

Solano Avenue: The pressure is on for North Berkeley shopping district to up its game
When French-style bakery La Farine abruptly closed up shop on Berkeley's Solano Avenue this summer, there was an outcry from local residents. Its departure also created another empty storefront on a street that has its fair share of them, particularly in its easternmost stretch, near The Alameda.
But La Farine owner Jeff Dodge said he misses the North Berkeley commercial district and is actively looking for a way to return there. And Gina Gould, the landlord of the building Dodge vacated, at 1820 Solano, said she's confident she will sign up a new, likely food-related, business for the space before Christmas.
The new store will join a cluster of new businesses that have opened, or are about to, on the wide shopping street that stretches 2 miles east to west through Albany and Berkeley.
Will they bring new energy to a street that is known for its gigantic annual Solano Stroll event, but which, unlike Berkeley's Elmwood or Gourmet Ghetto neighborhoods, retains a slightly folksy feel? … Continue reading »

Judge denies lawsuit to halt grocery plans
Earlier this week, a Superior Court judge in Oakland rejected a lawsuit brought last year related to a proposed mixed-use development project in Albany underway by the University of California.
Judge Evelio M. Grillo had already issued a tentative denial, but heard additional arguments from attorneys in mid-May that could have changed his mind.
The University of California, which owns the 6.3-acre property, plans to develop a grocery store, run by tenant Sprouts Farmers Market, and a senior housing complex, along with several other retail spaces, on the site, which straddles Monroe Street at San Pablo Avenue. … Continue reading »
Cal plows again, after weekend occupation
For the third time in less than a week, Cal staff have plowed up crops planted in Albany by a group of activists who have been working to turn a UC-owned vacant lot slated for development into a community farm.
The activists, called Occupy the Farm, have been visiting the San Pablo Avenue site regularly since May 11. They've planted crops and camped several times, and many of its members say the land should be protected in perpetuity and used for farming. The University of California, which owns the land, has been working with the city of Albany for about five years to develop a project for the property, at Monroe Street, which is set to include a Sprouts Farmers Market and a senior housing complex. … Continue reading »
Lawsuit to stop grocery store tentatively denied
After a preliminary ruling issued this week tentatively denied a lawsuit to block the development of a grocery store and senior housing project planned in Albany by the University of California, attorneys for both sides argued the matter further before a Superior Court judge in downtown Oakland on Thursday.
The lawsuit — which questions the environmental review process undertaken when local officials approved the project — was filed last summer by supporters of Occupy the Farm. Some of the urban farming activists have said they want to see existing open space — several pieces of land owned by the university that include two vacant weedy lots slated for development, and an agricultural research field — protected and turned into public community farm space in perpetuity. … Continue reading »


text: A great way to preserve your child's school work is to use it as a background for your layouts. Take photo's of your child around the time the work was done ( really anytime in that semester counts ) then either cut the work and use it in kinda a collage manner or just adhere the whole piece to the card stock background. Layouts with several pieces of work overlapping especially look cute and help you preserve more papers at a time. But remember these pages are not acid free so either back your photos or use the archival spritz to rid the papers of there acid.
