Island Talkback: Alameda celebrates Harvey Milk
By Sean Cahill
On October 11, 2009, Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger officially instituted May 22 as "Harvey Milk Day" in the State of California. Only one other individual, the legendary John Muir, holds this honor.
Harvey Milk was born in New York on May 22, 1930 to Minerva Karns and William Milk. He moved to San Francisco in 1972 and five years later, in 1977, was elected to the San Francisco Board of Supervisors, the first time in the history of the United States that an openly gay man was elected to a prominent political office.
During his term on the Board of Supervisors, Milk sponsored and successfully passed a gay rights ordinance for the City of San Francisco. He was also instrumental in defeating California Proposition 6 – commonly known as the Briggs Initiative – which would have banned gays and lesbians from teaching in California public schools.
Milk's contributions to gay culture are far-reaching, and many of the traditions shared in the gay community today reflect his efforts. While his passion for justice saw great success, it also caused much controversy. And like many who stand at the boundary of difference, he knew the potential for harm to his person. As feared, on November 27, 1978, Harvey Milk was assassinated. In 2009, President Barack Obama honored Harvey Milk posthumously, with the Medal of Freedom.
Because of Harvey Milk's contributions, as with the lives of the many before him who have made significant contributions to American heritage, we make time to commemorate and honor his life on May 22. In recognition of this day, Alameda City Councilman Frank Matarrese, the College of Alameda, the College of Alameda Gay Straight Alliance, Alameda Social Services Human Relations Board, Alameda Multicultural Center and the Community Alliance Resource for Education are co-sponsoring the first annual "Alameda Harvey Milk Day" from 10 a.m. to noon May 22 in the Student Union at the College of Alameda, 555 Ralph Appezzato Memorial Parkway.
Some of the program highlights include performance by the renowned Oakland East Bay Gay Men's Chorus; invocation and benediction by the Rev. Laura Rose, senior pastor of the First Congregational Church of Alameda United Church of Christ; and an interview with the Rabbi Allen Bennett of Temple Israel on his reflections as Harvey Milk's rabbi and the experience of being the country's first openly gay rabbi.
The Hon. Beverly Johnson, Mayor, Alameda and Alameda Unified School District Superintendent Kirsten Vital will present proclamations made for this day. The keynote address will be from one of the youngest openly gay elected officials in the U.S., Campbell Mayor Evan Low.

Placebos in Clinical Practice
Medical dictionaries define placebo as a non-medication substance, prescribed or given to reinforce the patient's expectation to get well. Research on the effect of placebos is of great significance to healthcare professionals because of their widespread use. That widespread use draws from their effect in the improvement of a symptom or disease without specifically improving the condition under treatment. That effect, called the placebo effect, has been proven powerful and inherent in clinical work. Furthermore, the patient-practitioner relationship is an equally essential part of the psychosocial aspect of treatment. Within that context, the practitioner communicates information on recovery and wellness through words, gestures and behavior. In addition to previous studies on the wide acceptance and use of placebos, a more recent one revealed that 46% of academic physicians in the Chicago area used placebos in their everyday clinical practice. A high 96% of them believed in the therapeutic effect of placebos and the connection between the mind and the body.
No specific protocol governs the clinical use of placebos. The bioethical aspect of their use has also been questioned. Despite these issues, most academic physicians frequently use placebos in clinical practice out of a belief in their therapeutic effect and the mind-body connection.
Research Findings
Placebos were already commonly used before the 19th century until displaced by modern medicine (Raz et al., 2008). Modern knowledge about the neural correlates of placebo mechanisms, however, restored the use of placebos. They soon gained popularity and hounded only by bioethical issues in evidence-based medicine. Nonetheless, some clinicians, mostly academic physicians, favor their relative usefulness and role in the body-mind connection. The worth of placebos may be questioned outside the realm of research but they are popularly used in clinical trials (Raz et al.).
Research itself provides evidence of the usefulness of placebos in clinical settings (Raz et al., 2008). A study of head nurses at a Connecticut health district said that they used placebos at that time or for the past six months at 44%. Another study conducted with house officers and registered nurses. The house officers said that 78% of respondent physicians ordered the use of placebos and 82% of the registered nurses administered them as painkillers. Doctors and nurses at the Victoria General Hospital in Canada said that 80% of the nurses administered placebos while on duty, 91% I the form of saline injections. Another research conducted with 263 respondents found that 68% administered placebos and only 12% within the previous year. A separate study among physicians and nurses in Israel showed that 53 out of the total of 89 respondents prescribed placebos. Of this total, 33 were prescribed to take once a month. And the most recent evidence comes from the study conducted with academic physicians in the Chicago area (Raz et al.).
The Placebo Effect
"Placebo" is a Latin term for "as I please (Jansen, 2005; ACS, 2010)." It was connoted with death during the Middle Ages. Professional mourner-singers during funeral masses were also called "placebos (Thomas, 2002 as qtd in Jansen)." It was only in 1811 when the term was included in the Hooper's Medical Dictionary that it was made to refer to a type of medicine to please him rather than cure or keep healthy. The placebo effect is the response of the patient to the placebo. While the modern scientific community has been aware of the beneficial placebo effect, the prejudice remains that it is not real. Thus, the full recognition of all its potentials is not attained to contribute to healing. There was even a problem agreeing on an acceptable definition. It was not until researchers Walach and the team of Moerman and Jonas came up with one, which now is generally acceptable. Walack (2004 as qtd in Jansen) defines the placebo effect as a therapeutic meaning response, which offers critical information on the mind, the body and culture that will heal the sick. Moerman and Jonas (2000 as qtd in Jansen) defined it as a positive healing effect arising from any healing intervention, assumed to be mediated by the effect and which develops some meaning to the patient. Their definition suggests that the placebo effect can be created by complementary and alternative medicine modes too. These modes include therapeutic touch, hypnosis, acupuncture and biofeedback ( Available evidence supports and explains the valuable mechanism of the placebo effect (Jansen, 2005).
Available evidence supports and explains the valuable mechanism of the placebo effect (Jansen, 2005). In his editorial at the Journal of American Medical Association, David Spiegel wrote that the placebo effect is not merely mind over matter and that the mind clearly matters. The need of the hour is to explore the healing power of the placebo effect that will transform it into an accepted therapeutic mode. This goal may be achieved by three types of belief. The first is the belief and expectation of the patient. The second is that of the physician, clinician or mentor of the patient. And the third is that belief and expectation, which grow out of the positive relationship between the patient and the practitioner. This possibility requires openness to alternative forms of therapy (Benson, 2003 as qtd in Jansen).
Brown (Thomas, 2001 as qtd in Jansen, 2005) suggested a model that can respond to the requirements of informed consent, clinical trials and clinical settings. The clinician should develop a professional and trusting relationship with the patient. He should inform the patient about all treatment options. He should inform the patient if a medication, such a placebo, has no active ingredient but may induce some healing effects in him or her. And he should reveal necessary information in order to comply with legal requirements. These requirements will, however, not eliminate one's reason to believe in the beneficial action of placebos.
Academic Doctors of Chicago
A survey of 231 physicians from the Internal Medicine Department of three medical schools in Chicago said that almost half of them at 45% use placebo in clinical practice.
(Sherman & Hickner, 2008). Their most common reason for the use is to calm the patient and to as a supplemental treatment. The responding physicians did not have a uniform explanation to the mechanism of action. About 96% of them believed in the probable psychological therapeutic effect of placebos on patients. Of this total, about 40% believed that create physiological benefits to cure or alleviate certain health conditions. Only 12% of those surveyed thought that its use in routine medical care should be categorically disallowed (Sherma & Hickner).
Findings of 8 earlier studies on hospital-based physicians and nurses revealed that 10 & and 80% of them, respectively, used placebos in their clinical practice (Sherma & Hickner, 2008). The use in two of the most recent studies showed that more than 50% of them used placebos. They considered the use ethical under certain circumstances. There have been concerns over informed consent and non-deceptive therapeutics in the use of placebos in medical practice. Other practitioners say the placebo effect may be pursued if there are no ethical questions. Scientists put placebos under a broad category of interventions, which affect and induce "psycho-biological functioning." Anthropologist Daniel Moerman perceived the placebo effect as a "meaning response." In his view, it encompassed the physiological and psychological effects of meaning in treatment. Goodwin and associates almost 3 decades ago reported on what the majority of academic physicians thought about placebos. They thought that these could determine the genuineness of a patient's symptoms. Large numbers of physicians believe that placebos have therapeutic effects. They help distinguish between psychogenic and merely organic symptoms. More and more physicians are taking the same position about placebos (Sherma & Hickner).
Nature and Mechanism
A placebo is an inactive substance that mimics regular medicine or treatment (ACS, 2012). It is given or prescribed to a person but he or she does not know it is not medicine. It may be a sugar pill, an injection, a liquid, a procedure or any other form of therapy. It does not directly affect the illness under treatment. It may not have direct biological effect on the illness or condition but, in out of 3 patients, they seem to assert the desired effect. An observed change in symptoms is termed as the placebo effect. This effect often lasts for a short while. In that duration, it seems to relate with the body's inherent capacity to briefly relieve pain or other symptoms. In other cases, however, it creates the opposite undesirable or worse symptoms, "side effects" collectively called nocebo effect. Headaches, nervousness, nausea and constipation are among these (ACS).
Placebo and nocebo effects are referred to together as expectation effects (ACS, 2012). Experts interpret this as the patient's experiencing what he or she expects. If he or she expects to be better, that will happen. But if he or she thinks the placebo is too strong, it may produce the undesired side effects. The placebo, in reality, does not cause these side effects directly. Rather,…[continue]

Clear Channel takeover deal in jeopardy
The takeover of radio giant Clear Channel Communications is headed for a shocking rejection after powerful proxy adviser Institutional Shareholder Services on Tuesday recommended shareholders vote down the $27.1bn (€19.9bn) buyout.
The buyers, including Thomas H Lee Partners, Bain Capital and Clear Channel's founding Mays family, were hoping that their recently sweetened offer of $39 a share would be enough to persuade ISS to approve the deal. But the proxy adviser, which holds sway over nearly 20% of Clear Channel's shareholders, said on Tuesday that the price is still too low.
The proxy adviser makes it nearly impossible for the buyers to get the two-thirds majority needed to win the day, according to analysts.

A biological agent is stolen from a biocontainment lab. Weaponized, it could kill millions, and a desperate national hunt ensues to catch the terrorists before it is too late. Luke Stone, head of an elite FBI department, with his own family still in jeopardy, has vowed to walk away - but when the new president, barely sworn in, calls him, he can't turn his back on her.
Shocking devastation follows, winding its way all the way to the president, who finds her own family in jeopardy. Her strength tested as she steps into her new role, she surprises even her closest advisors. Rival presidential staff want Luke out of the picture, and with his team in danger, and left to his own resources, it becomes personal. But Luke Stone never gives up until he, or the terrorists, are dead.
Luke realizes quickly that the terrorist's final target is even more high value - and more terrifying - than even he could imagine. Yet with only a few days before doomsday, it's unlikely that even he can stop what's already in motion.
Oath of Office is a political thriller with non-stop action, dramatic international settings, unexpected twists, and heart-pounding suspense.
©2016 Jack Mars (P)2016 Jack Mars
I love espionage, legal, and detective thrillers but listen to most genres. Very frequent reviews. No plot spoilers! Please excuse my typos!
"Solid espionage thriller!"
The Luke Stone series has great potential. Luke Stone is not Mitch Rapp, Jack Mars is not Vince Flynn, and KC Kelly is not George Guidall, but they are almost as good. Oath of Office is a 5 star espionage thriller except for a flaw of having Luke Stone perform one literally impossible physical feat. My issue with Any Means Necessary, Book 1 of the Luke Stone series, is exactly the same. In that case he jumped five feet off a helicopter going 100 miles an hour onto the top of an SUV going 70 MPH and managed to hold on. In this book he does something even more impossible. Except for one scene in each book I would have rated both novels 5 stars.
Audible, when will you be releasing Situation Room, the next book in the Luke Stone series? It has been available in Kindle ebook format since late June of this year.
"Very Good Book"
I began this series because of other review comparing it to the Mitch Rapp series. While I don't feel it reaches that level of writing, I understand the comparisons. Based on the current books available in this category, Luke Stone definitely nears the top. Looking forward to the next one!
"Ok but not well developed"
I got this book based on my suggestions for reading from audible. The story was OK but pretty thin in detail and character development. Even the story development was pretty weak. Not bad enough to return it and get my money back but I'd wait till it was on the discount rack.
"Over The Top"
We expect to suspend elements of reality when we read fiction but when nothing is solid or based in reality, it becomes too difficult to connect with the characters, story or plot. Instead the reader or listener will find themselves noting inconsistencies and flaws. It really is a shame because the story has potential it just isn't told very well. The overall recipe for this story is the same as book 1. Luke is trying to leave the group, he gets pulled in, his family suffers for it and he has to choose between them and saving the world. He is the only one the president trusts, yet he gets fired and then rehired ... Meanwhile Luke is racing around doing the impossible with his wounded friend.
"Great book. Can't wait for more books from Jack."
What a great book. The series is awesome. Can't wait for more books from Jack
"Constant action"
This series with Stone is really pretty good. His character is a bit over the top successful, but we all need a larger than life character to make our days more exciting.
It's also nice to be able to read a military/suspense/espionage novel, where the author is good enough to lay out a believable plot without including the smutty and filthy language that some other authors feel compelled to include in their writings.
Thank you.
Retired Reader
"Two and out!"
I liked the first one and was looking forward to the second...
Won't be listening to the third...
Though the characters were way too cartoonish - the plot was implausible to say the least...
The only good part was the ending - and yes we know that a lot of men and women have made huge sacrifices to keep us free and safe - but think it could have been told more skillfully
"Ok Story"
It is an ok Story with ok narration.
The story is easy to follow, has some surprises in it.
The story is in one way disturbing do to the possibility of this happen in real live! Other aspects are just not realistic still I enjoyed reading and listening
"an interesting story"
the story line was so close to the first book... but then it was still the same story, just published in a second book, so maybe that is OK. was nice to see the president developer a back bone. enjoyed the read.
"can not wait for book 3"
waiting to find out what comes next
you get lost in the story and feel like your part of the events

Five years ago, Massachusetts had just 3.5 megawatts (MW) of solar power installed. Today, thanks to the leadership of the Patrick-Murray Administration, there are now 72 MW of solar power capacity installed in Massachusetts – enough to power 12,264 homes for a year.
The Commonwealth initiated its first program for solar PV rebates and partnerships in 2001, funded through a small renewable energy charge on electric utility bills. But solar really took off when, in April 2007, when Governor Patrick announced a goal of 250 MW of installed solar power by 2017 and launched the Commonwealth Solar (CommSolar) program in January 2008.
Of the $22 billion the Commonwealth spends annually to buy the energy that runs its power plants, buildings and vehicles, 80 percent flows out of state to purchase coal from Colombia, oil from Venezuela, and natural gas and oil from the Middle East and Canada. That's nearly $18 billion in lost economic opportunity that Massachusetts stands poised to reclaim through investments in home-grown renewable energy and energy efficiency.
Making solar a cornerstone of the Commonwealth's clean energy economy has created a vibrant industry. In 2007, just 50 solar installers were doing business in Massachusetts, while today there are more than 250 solar installers. Solar energy is the most prominent renewable energy technology area for Massachusetts clean energy companies, with more than two in three renewable energy employers working with solar energy technologies.
For more information about solar power in Massachusetts, visit the Department of Energy Resources or the Massachusetts Clean Energy Center. You can also see how the Commonwealth is progressing towards meeting its ambitious renewable energy goals on the Renewable Energy Snapshot.

- These Japanese made Jointer and Planer Blades will outlast any other steel blades on the market - PERIOD! Tested against the finest European brands, these blades held their edge much longer, reducing down time and aggravation. Sure, they cost a bit more, but the results are worth it many times over. Manufactured with Japanese technology from a superior blend of quality steel and double ground to a 42º+45º edge angle. These blades include a higher percentage of Molybdenum for longer edge retention. We offer a full selection for just about every jointer and planer application. You won't be disappointed!

Sandals has 3 resorts in St. Lucia which are the Sandals Grande (5 stars hotel), the Sandals Halcyon(4 1/2 stars) and the Sandals Regency(5 stars).
The Sandals resorts offer all-inclusive vacation packages for couples. In july 2009, I have booked the Sandals Grande for 1 week in January 2010. It was my first time in a Sandals resort and I have appreciated every second of it. From the time we arrived at the resort until the time we left, everyone did the best they could for our vacation to be one to remember.
The Sandals Grande is located in the northern part of St. Lucia, in the Gros Islet area. It takes about 90 minutes to get to the resort from the international Airport. There is an helicopter shuttle that can transfer you in 10 minutes to the Castries airport, then you have a 20 minutes car ride to get to the resort. It is pretty expensive though, $145 US / person. We preferred to take the bus ride and look at the beautiful scenery of St. Lucia.
There are several restaurants at the Sandals Grande. You also have access to the restaurants at the other 2 Sandals on the island. There are free shuttles coming and going to the different Sandals resorts.
The food was always very good (buffet and à la carte restaurants) at the resort. I didn't try the other Sandals restaurants.
There are 5 beautiful pools at the resort. You will find many facilities such as a fitness center, a spa, a beauty salon, gift shops, an internet center and a jewelry store.
I really enjoyed my vacation at the Sandals Grande St. Lucian and I recommand it. For more information about the resort visit :

How to Locate People via Their Cell Phone
Locating someone through his cell phone can give you a peace of mind, especially with children. Although, you can call to check up on him, it is not always the "cool" thing to do. Luckily, many wireless providers have gotten this message and have implemented features to help customers locate phones connected to their wireless accounts. With the use of GPS capable phones or cell towers, you can receive real-time information as to the whereabouts of a cell phone. Although you may incur a monthly charge to use this service, the benefits usually outweigh the cost.
Things You'll Need
- Wireless Internet account
Step 1
Create an account on InstaMapper.com (See Resources).
Step 2
Download the software on to the phone that you want to locate.
Step 3
Log into your account using your computer or mobile phone to view the current location of the phone in which the GPS software is installed on.
Step 1
Sign up for an account on Mologogo.com (See Resources). Make sure your phone is compatible.
Step 2
Install the GPS tracking software on the phone that you want to locate.
Step 3
Run the software on your phone and then log into your Mologogo account to track its whereabouts.
Step 1
Register for an account on Buddyway.com (See Resources).
Step 2
Download the mobile phone tracking software on to the device that you want to locate.
Step 3
Log into your Buddyway account to track the whereabouts of your device.
Tips & Warnings
- Use your cell phone's Web browser to sign into your account and locate people. Enter the Website into the address bar on your mobile phone and follow the prompts the same as you would on a computer.

Dear eBirders, There are some new hotspots in the area between Freshwater Corners and Bridgeville via Kneeland. Specifically, they are (though not necessarily by these exact names): Freshwater Corners to Freshwater Park Freshwater Park to the top of Greenwood Heights Dr. Greenwood Heights Dr. to Butler Valley Rd. Butler Valley Rd. to Mountain View Rd. Mountain View Rd. Showers Pass Rd. Kneeland Rd. south of Showers Pass Rd. If you have checklists that conform to any of these new hotspots, please populate the hotspots by changing your personal locations to them. This will be very helpful to me as I write my birding guide to the county. Although hotspots don't exist yet for Kneeland Rd. between Mountain View and either end of Showers Pass Rd., those would be good to suggest if you have relevant data. Thanks very much! I look forward to seeing the databases for these new hotspots grow. Ken Burton Klamath
Hi All, This morning the Vermillion Flycatcher was seen by Chris Hayward and others between 7:35am and 9:30am, before my arrival . I arrived at 9:30am and watched and photographed the bird until a bit after 10:00am. The bird was still present when Chris and I left after 10:00am. It was moving around the headstones quite a bit but generally staying in the location of Birch and Oak (cemetery streets) and being quite cooperative. Cypress Lawn Cemetery is on both the east and the west side of El Camino Real. The Vermillion Flycatcher has been seen on the west side of El Camino Real not the east side. The original eBird hotspot "Cypress Lawn Cemetery" points to the east side of El Camino Real and this may create some confusion for those not familiar with the area and put folks in the wrong side of the cemetery. I have created a new eBird hotspot that points to the correct cemetery location and correct side of El Camino Real. The full name of the new hotspot is: Vermillion Flycatcher location - Cypress Lawn Cemetery-westside, San Mateo County, California, US ( Map ) ( Hotspot ) Here is my checklist with that map marker included: http://ebird.org/ebird/view/checklist/S32767656 What a super find! Congratulations PETER METROPULOS!!!!! Malia DeFelice
I see the Black Oystercatchers in Trinidad, California, doing this behavior frequently. They seem to forage on the beach more when the surf is high.

[CALBIRDS] Sent: Friday, December 02, 2016 11:33 AM To: email@example.com Subject: [CALBIRDS] Phenomenon New to group, but noted an interesting () sighting along US101 just south of Crescent City on 11/29/16. In wondering the nature of all the black shorebirds along the sandy beach aside the highway, I counted 33 black oystercatchers. They were chasing the surf as would sanderlings (=sandercatchers).

I most sincerely recommend that anyone that ever birds LA County or wanting more information on California birds, purchase this absolutely fabulous book that contains an incredible amount of information! There is such a wealth of details in over 600 pages that is well laid out, extremely helpful and elucidating with subheadings to quickly find various types of info. It is certainly mind-boggling to have this completeness! Historical information is included i.e. w/notes of skeletons from the La Brea Tar Pits. Dates and abundance have been updated. There is extensive info on localities, desired food at different times of year, and more information on habitat, subspecies and behavior, along w/detailed maps. Much I have never seen elsewhere is just phenominal and blows my mind about the comprehensiveness!!! Plus much more, all compiled into an easily referenced tome w/species index on the inside front cover. Credit is given to all those that helped in the surveys, or any other way, sponsoring individual birds, etc. It also has considerable info, insights & recommendations in setting up other county or future surveys. Do order thru LAAS@... , leave message at 323-876-0202 or www.laasaudubon.com . It will cost a bit more than the initial bulk mailing, but very much worth it! Primary authors Larry Allen, Kimball Garrett, Mark Wimer plus all those that started and contributed so extensively are to be highly commended! Wanda Dameron LAAS Field Trip Chair of early '80's Interesting Note: Former Co-leader Jim Hardesty kept ebird records of our Monday Birding Group (Southwest Bird Study Club) for many years. He notes we are seeing only 50% of the quantities we saw 10 years ago, then mainly birding in L.A. Co. We now see approximately the same number of species per year, (around 300) by traveling greater distances--to Santa Barbara, Salton Sea & Galileo!!! A shame we don't have quantity records since inception in 1919! This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. www.avast.com

County Coordinators/Contributors: The Fall Migration Season (1 August 2016 through 30 November 2016) is ended, and we solicit reports for inclusion in the Southern California Region of NORTH AMERICAN BIRDS. Reports should be arranged with species in the taxonomic order followed by the American Ornithologists Union (Check-List of North American Birds 1998 and all Supplements). Reports of species included on the California Bird Records Committee (CBRC) review list http://www.californiabirds.org must be accompanied by documentation (written description, photographs, etc.). Similar documentation should also accompany reports of species exceptional for the location or season. Full names, with all initials, should be used in the reports (this reduces the potential for different observers having the same initials, and makes it simpler to acknowledge contributors).

After yesterday's tantalizing glimpses, I returned this morning and was able to get more satisfying looks at what I'm upgrading from Petrochelidon species to a Cave Swallow. It was flying around with a few other swallows (Trees mostly but with two Barns and a Violet-green) and White-throated Swifts over the island and surrounding waters near the boat ramp of the recreation area. Best bet is to watch from somewhere on the south shore west of the boat ramp. It seems to make the occasional low pass, but largely feeds up high. It was significantly easier to observe this morning (8am-now, 9:30am) accompanied by mere dozens of birds in comparison with the swirling hundreds of yesterday late morning and afternoon.

Hi All, The Point Pinos Seawatch continues to record large numbers of Red Phalaropes, and Pacific Loons are really starting to push through. Compared with last year, tubenose diversity is higher, but Pacific Loon numbers are lagging (maybe just late). The big story is the Red Phalarope invasion, with massive numbers being seen daily off the Point. Yesterday there were more than 20,000 counted. These are really tough to count, with rafts of birds on the water, as well as streams of birds moving past. Complicated. Loons are easier and starting to become a spectacle.

Hello, Birders, Ive just arrived home from a four day road trip, birding San Benito Mountain and various places in south San Benito County. I noticed a post regarding Mercey Hot Springs and the Long-eared Owls. I received a notice from Mercey Hot Springs this evening, stating that they have been informed by Panoche Valley Solar LLC, that LITTLE PANOCHE ROAD WILL BE CLOSED from I-5 to Mercey Hot Springs due to road/bridge construction from approximately November 28 through December 4 (although this could change). Please continue to read this post for more information that may be important if you plan to visit Panoche Valley. I was last out in Panoche Valley on October 24 & 25. I was told that the County of Fresno had effectively halted the trail of large trucks traveling Little Panoche Road due to the wear and tear on the roads. It appears that Fresno County officials have effectively negotiated some sort of plan to repair the road. (I doubt that San Benito County has done anything about the wear and tear on their roads.) Panoche Valley Solar LLC has placed orange speed limit signs along Little Panoche Road that state the speed is 25 mph. At least one sign is located only 10-15 feet from a 55 mph sign. This is confusing. I spoke with the roads person in SBT County. The real speed limit in the construction area is supposed to be 35 mph . The only reason I bring this up is because the road is being heavily patrolled by the California Highway Patrol and the San Benito Sherif pretty much, day and night. I was stopped by the CHP for doing 35 mph on Little Panoche Road. I was not ticketed or anything like that. However, the CHP officer took my name and address. I drove off, thought about it thought he was probably giving my name and address to the solar people. Turned around, drove back to Little Panoche Road and, sure enough, there was the CHP stopped right in the middle of the road next to the solar companys pickup truck and, well, I have to think that was precisely what he did gave them my name and address. Bottom line: DO NOT SPEED. Do not give anyone an excuse to collect your name and address. The situation along Little Panoche Road has been and continues to be extremely hostile. I stated this to the roads person for SBT County, and he said that he has heard this from a lot of people! Be careful, especially when pointing cameras and binoculars (The CHP made special note that I had binoculars! Why) It was all I could do not to mouth off to the CHP when he stopped me. I didnt, though. However, when I returned and saw him talking to the solar truck, I did get his name and badge number, just in case Elsewhere in PV, there is a lot of activity in many places, including helicopter activity that is flushing many birds. IF Mountain Plovers show up anywhere in the valley (very unlikely along Little Panoche Road) anywhere, they are bound to be flushed by the helicopter activities especially out near Silver Creek Ranch area. But, there are operations as part of the solar installation going on almost everywhere in the valley, not just along Little Panoche Road. BTW, the solar workers tend to take lunch at the Panoche Inn. Ive steered clear of that. If you are driving Panoche Road from Hollister, be aware that I have encountered convoys of large pickup trucks 13 of them in one convoy on 24 October. So, take care when stopping to bird along this road as so many birders do. Be sure you are well off the road when stopping. Paicines Reservoir along Highway 25 has been a traditional stop for many field trips heading to Panoche Valley. This reservoir has been bone dry sine May 2014. The water level is completely controlled by the county at this reservoir. Ive just retuned from the far southern parts of SBT County. And, what I could see of Hernandez Reservoir is bone dry as well. Hernandez is at least twice as large as Paicines when either has any water. There is a good pullout next to Paicines Reservoir, although it can be muddy if it rains. I would welcome eBird checklists as the reservoir is a hot spot. It would be good to have negative data from this hot spot. Raptors have been hanging around. On 15 November, I recorded 2 FERRUGINOUS HAWKS , a male MERLIN , and a GREATER ROADRUNNER was walking on the dry floor of the reservoir. So, still worth a stop these days. There are many eBird hot spots along Panoche Road and in Panoche Valley itself. Please, please use these hot spots and limit traveling counts to 5 miles or less. Some other highlights from PV on October 24: MERLIN at McCullough Ranch; 410 HORNED LARKS and GOLDEN EAGLE soaring over Little Panoche Rd; 2 BELLS SPARROWS and 1 MOUNTAIN BLUEBIRD at the entrance to Panoche Hills BLM area and more of both species up in the hills along with 2 CHUKARS; FERRUGINOUS HAWK at Norton Rd; 2 CASSINS KINGBIRDS (they continue to be reported) and 1 CLAY-COLORED SPARROW (first for PV area) near Douglas Ranch. October 25: 1 NORTHERN HARRIER, 1 male LAWRENCES GOLDFINCH at Panoche Creek; 3 VESPER SPARROWS, 1 FERRUGINOUS HAWK at Silver Creek Ranch area; TRICOLORED BLACKBIRDS near Douglas Ranch; PRAIRIE FALCON along New Idria Rd; 1 RED-BREASTED SAPSUCKER near McCullough Ranch. BEAWARE if it rains, any dirt roads including road shoulders can easily cause your vehicle to get stuck! Panoche Hills BLM area has a lot of dirt roads. Panoche Road beyond Silver Creek corrals is dirt. It only takes a tiny bit of rain! Steel Your Heart if you are heading to Panoche Valley, Debi DEBRA SHEARWATER Shearwater Journeys, Inc.

Greeting Calbirders, As fall migration is winding down, I hope that you all got out and saw some good birds over the past few months. There were a number of reports on listservs and on eBird of California Bird Records Committee (CBRC) review species . If you saw any of these, I encourage you to submit your documentation (written descriptions, photos, and/or audio recordings) to the CBRC. In particular, I have included a list below for which the CBRC has received little or no documentation. If you have not submitted documentation to the CBRC previously and you dont know what to include, please visit the CBRC website where you can find submission guidelines as well as a report form . One of the CBRCs primary purposes is to permanently maintain documentation of rare birds in order to better understand the status and distribution of birds in California, as well as to preserve these records for future research. Your submission of documentation greatly facilitates the work of the CBRC in pursuing this goal.

This morning at Monterey Audubon's Point Pinos Seawatch, Skye Haas, Paul Fenwick and I, had one of the (or the) presumably continuing adult NAZCA BOOBIES foraging at the fogline north of the Point. In the mist it was difficult to determine the bill hue, but given the repeated documented sightings of adult Nazcas around the Monterey Bay this year (this is at least the fourth incident) today's bird seems likely to be one. Taken in conjunction with MTY's recent Great Frigatebird, one wonders what event(s) or conditions are driving these southerly birds so deep into the California Current in 2016 We will post a comprehensive Seawatch update soon. The count thus far has been characterized by robust SUSC numbers (with daily BLSC sightings), the continuing REPH event, high numbers of RHAU and PAJA. This morning we also saw an unusual movement of Surfbird flocks, as well as a couple inshore ASSP. Yesterday was our first 1000+ day for PALO. Good birding, -Blake Matheson Monterey Peninsula
One note to eBirders: please do note that we have two adjacent Hot Spots in the El Estero area; these are separated by Pearl Street and have very different habitats. If you visit El Estero, north of Pearl, please use that Hot Spot ["Monterey--El Estero"}. Here there are ducks, gulls, an island with heron roosts, and today even some Red Phalaropes. All of those would be scarce to rare in the cemetery. If you bird the cemetery south of Pearl for the tanager -- extensive lawns with flowering eucs and oaks -- please put those birds in the separate Hot Spot called "Monterey--San Carlos Cemetery." It badly confuses the maps and bar graphs if you "dump" a visit to both different spots into the same eBird list. Thanks Don Roberson eBird editor for Monterey County
Today an adult male Scarlet Tanager, in fresh basic plumage, was found in flowering eucalyptus in San Carlos Cemetery in downtown Monterey. The old Catholic cemetery is just south of the public parking areas at Lake El Estero, with one entrance just across Pearl St., and extends southwards to Fremont. There are access gates on both Pearl and Fremont, and the 'arms' of El Estero form the west and east sides of this eBird Hot Spot [Monterey--San Carlos Cemetery]. The tanager was found, identified, and photographed by Steve Rovell and Larry & Carole Rose about 11 a.m., and continued to be seen into mid-afternoon. It was initially in tall flowering eucs midway along the N side of cemetery, but moved to two very tall flowering eucs in the NE corner, which is where it was seen by most local birders who went today. The eucs are full of "Audubon's" Warblers and there is one Nashville there also. The tanager is bright yellow with black wings and tail; it retains a few tiny red feathers at mid-belly, and a couple of scarlet feathers in black upperwing coverts. Multiple photos are in eBird already. If you see it or anything else of interest, please report to the local BirdBox (831) 250-4550, and to MBB and/or eBird. If you are from out of town, do stop by the Monterey Audubon sponsored Pt. Pinos seawatch just west of Crespi Pond at the Point, which is manned dawn to dusk daily to 15 Dec. Today there were untold thousands of Red Phalaropes, and major flights of BV Shearwater, Pacific Loon, and scoters. Good luck, Don Roberson Pacific Grove CA http://creagrus.home.montereybay.com/
Two McKown's Longspurs, male and female, were in the NW corner of the field SW of San Jacinto Ave / Dunlap Rd near Perris in Riverside county this morning Nov 13, 8:30 to 9am. Also the 20 or so Mountain Plovers along San Jacinto, a Prairie Falcon, and a Burrowing Owl at the puddle in the channel. No Laplands seen. DaveWeber, Milpitas by phone
This afternoon (Nov 5), while birding with Roger and Michael Woodruff, Matt Grube, and Brittany O'Connor, we found a Winter Wren at Crystal Spring in the Kingston Mountains of the eastern Mojave Desert. For those not familiar with the area, this is about 15 miles east of Tecopa in southwestern Inyo County. The majority of the spring is in Inyo County, however, the bird did fly briefly to the south into San Bernardino County. Complete details, including photos and audio recordings are available in my eBird checklistor on my Flickr page.

Hi Calbirders, Yesterday an immature frigatebird was seen from the Pt. Pinos Seawatch, as well as from a few other locations around Monterey Bay. The bird has been tentatively identified as a 3rd-cycle Great Frigatebird, but we are still seeking opinions as to its identification. Photos by Skye Haas can be seen on this eBird checklist: http://ebird.org/ebird/view/checklist/S32344362 Anecdotal reports of the bird are surfacing from as early as Monday (over Marina landfill with gulls), but it wasn't seen by birders until Wednesday. No sightings today that I am aware of. Thanks Brian -- =========== Brian L. Sullivan eBird Project Leader www.ebird.org Photo Editor Birds of North America Online http://bna.birds.cornell.edu/BNA -------------------------------
Today Linda & I found some notable birds in SIS Co. At Lake Siskiyou we refound 3 SURF SCOTERS. On 11/2 the Parkers reported 3 on ebird. Today we found them by scoping out from the causeway/dam. Next stop was at Lake Shastina. Scoping off the boat ramp we found both a PACIFIC & COMMON LOON, a number of HORNED GREBES, & several BONAPARTE GULLS. Most of these were close to the dam. Good Birding, Frances Lodi, CA
November 1 marked the beginning of Monterey Audubon's second annual Seabird Seawatch from Point Pinos on the outermost Monterey Peninsula. This year, under the guidance of expert counter Skye Haas, and supported by counter Mark Kudrav, we will collect year-over-year data on all migratory seabirds passing by the Point Nov 1 - Dec 15, dawn to dusk. Last year we inventoried 250,000 Pacific Loons and 50,000 Surf Scoters. What will this year bring Well in just two days we've rack ed up multiple Leach's Storm-Petrels, Harlequin Ducks, thousands upon thousands of Red Phalarope, and....a frigatebird! This second-cycle Frigatebird seen yesterday afternoon, 2 November, was initially assumed to be a Magnificent Frigatebird but closer looks point to other possibilities including Great Frigatebird. Second-cycle frigates are notoriously hard to ID. Magnificent Frigatebirds off California are rare enough, but If this is a Great Frigatebird it could be just the 4th in North America. Incredibly, another Great Frigatebird was seen off the Salinas river mouth, Monterey County, in 1979. A photo of the frigatebird is on our facebook page, at https://www.facebook.com/monterey.audubon . We'll also post occasional updates from the count there, as well. Good birding, Blake Matheson Monterey Peninsula
All, As far as I know nobody has refound the reported rosefinch today despite many looking. It has been raining off and on since around 1130 today and there have been hardly any House Finches seen in the vicinity where David found the bird late yesterday. Thanks, Rob Fowler -- Rob Fowler McKinleyville, CA www.fowleropebirding.com

TAG Heuer countdown success at Red Bull Rampage 2016 on Red Bull TV
The new partnership between Tag Heuer and Red Bull TV got off to a successful and timely start on Friday 14th October, as the luxury Swiss Avant-Garde watchmaker's new countdown clock on the channel ensured nobody missed out on watching 21 of the world's elite freeriders at the 11th Red Bull Rampage, the world's toughest freeride mountain bike event.
The TAG Heuer Red Bull Rampage countdown coincides with the announcement that the luxury watchmaker is the Official Timekeeping Partner for Red Bull TV. The developing relationship between Red Bull TV and TAG Heuer expands upon a winning partnership between the watchmaker and Red Bull Racing. The personalities featured on Red Bull TV continually innovate the possibilities of their sports, and competitions often come down to fractions of a second, while record setting is in TAG Heuer's DNA, with the company developing the first stopwatch accurate to 1/100 of a second.
Much of the Red Bull TV integration will support TAG Heuer's campaign theme, "Don't Crack Under Pressure" (#dontcrackunderpressure), where people are encouraged to push boundaries, take on challenges, and break rules. The inaugural countdown clock campaign celebrates two visionary rule breakers, born more than a century apart. In 1860, Edouard Heuer founded a company that has continually revolutionized the art of watchmaking around the world and beyond – TAG Heuer was the first Swiss watchmaker in space on the wrist of astronaut John Glenn. In 2001, pioneering freerider, Josh Bender, brought his crazy "you gotta go big" vision to life with the very first Red Bull Rampage; he remains on the judging panel to this day. Learn more about the inspiration behind Red Bull Rampage here.
At Red Bull Rampage, freeriders have the time of their lives trying to take smooth lines, nail large airs, and land spectacular jumps on descent trails of their own creation. Former Rampage competitors judge riders on their tricks, lines and technical ability. The new venue in Virgin, Utah brought the event back to its roots, inspiring riders to conquer raw and untamed natural terrain.
Ultimately, it was Brandon Semenuk who took the win for the second time at Red Bull Rampage 2016. Watch his incredible run, here.
Make sure you don't miss out on the next live events with the TAG Heuer countdown clock for Red Bull Straight Rhythm, live on October 23 and the Red Bull Cliff Diving World Series final, live on October 28.
The Ivory Game wins top international award at 'Oscars' of wildlife film and TV ceremony
Wins also for David Attenborough's Light on Earth and Wild Weather with Richard Hammond at Wildscreen Festival 2016
The Ivory Game, produced by Terra Mater Film Studios, and executive produced by Leonardo DiCaprio, has been named the winner of the international wildlife film and TV industry's most prestigious award - the WWF Golden Panda Award, at the 2016 Wildscreen Festival in Bristol, UK.
The documentary, which exposes the dark and sinister underbelly of global ivory trafficking, also won the evening's Theatrical Award.
There were further wins throughout the ceremony for Terra Mater, including Wild Weather with Richard Hammond, co-produced by Terra Mater, which won the Script Award and David Attenborough's Light on Earth, which won both the Technical Innovation Award and the NHK Science Award.
The biennial Wildscreen Festival is considered the most important wildlife film and TV festival in the world. Lucie Muir, CEO of the charity behind the festival, commented: "A major talking point at this year's Wildscreen Festival has been the growing success of independents, not only at finding fresh ways to tell wildlife stories but also new ways to share them. Our Golden Panda winner, The Ivory Game, is one example of this – as gripping as a thriller drama in style and soon to be shown by an on-demand channel with the unique ability to put an urgent conservation story in front of a huge global audience very speedily.
The Ivory Game premieres on Netflix November 4th 2016
