Today is Sunday, Jan. 25, the 25th day of 2015. There are 340 days left in the year. Today's Highlight in History: On Jan. 25, 1915, America's first official transcontinental telephone call took place as Alexander Graham Bell, who was in New York, spoke to his former assistant, Thomas Watson, who was in San Francisco, over a line set up by American Telephone & Telegraph. On this date: In 1533, England's King Henry VIII secretly married his second wife, Anne Boleyn, who later gave birth to Elizabeth I. In 1890, reporter Nellie Bly (Elizabeth Cochrane) of the New York World completed a round-the-world journey in 72 days, 6 hours and 11 minutes. The United Mine Workers of America was founded in Columbus, Ohio. In 1915, the U.S. Supreme Court, in Coppage v. Kansas, upheld the right of employers to bar employees from belonging to labor unions by making them sign a "yellow dog contract." In 1924, the first Winter Olympic Games opened in Chamonix (SHAH'-moh-nee), France. In 1945, the World War II Battle of the B ...

Uber says New York and San Francisco had nothing on Paris for New Yearâs Eve stamina
I am deeply saddened to hear about the passing of former New York Governor Mario Cuomo. Mario was a true New York icon, a man of great intellect and oratorical skill. As a delegate at the 1984 Democratic National Convention in San Francisco, I remember how much pride I and the other delegates felt when he gave what is arguably one of the best political speeches in history. Mario's life was the quintessential American success story, the son of Italian immigrants who rose from modest beginnings in Queens to the governorâs mansion in Albany. Having served with Governor Cuomo in the State Legislature I can say there was not a more ardent supporter of the working class. My condolences go out to Matilda Cuomo and the rest of Marioâs family during this difficult time, including his son and our current Governor, Andrew Cuomo, who as I watched just today at his second inaugural address, made his father proud.

A Trip through the 1960s in Haight-Ashbury The historical, groovy and fun neighborhood near Golden Gate Park Overview: As the Mamas & the Papas suggested in their hit 1967 song, "if you're going to San Francisco, be sure to wear some flowers in your hair." Good advice, especially if your visit includes a stop in the Haight. The song was written to promote the Monterrey Pop Festival in June 1967, an event that attracted some of rock's biggest names (Janice Joplin, Jefferson Airplane, Otis Redding, Jimi Hendrix and The Who) and that is widely regarded as the catalyst for the Summer of Love and two Years Later--Woodstock, the New York rock festival that helped define a generation. The Summer of Love in 1967 was arguably the Haight's heyday, when 100,000 high school and college-aged kids descended on the area to listen to and play music, experiment with drugs, explore new ideas about authority, sex, race and just be. Haight housing was cheap and plentiful for penniless hippies as a result of a proposed plan t ...

Bermuda to host 2017 America's Cup - report 11:45 AM Friday Nov 21, 2014 The tax haven of Bermuda has been picked over San Diego to host the 2017 America's Cup, a person with knowledge of the situation told The Associated Press today. But Team New Zealand says it hasn't been told of any decision. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because defending champion Oracle Team USA, based in San Francisco, hasn't made the decision public. The person said software billionaire Larry Ellison of Oracle Corp. made the decision after consulting with the CEO of his sailing team, New Zealander Russell Coutts, who also is director of the America's Cup Event Authority. However, Emirates Team New Zealand CEO Grant Dalton released a statement this afternoon saying the team had not been told of any decision.

Quite a day yesterday. A lovely gig by the up and coming Abigail Angus at WM Jazz Club in the afternoon. I like the fact that she and her band play so many of her own songs. A nearly full WM Jazz for China Crisis. Tommy Dean went on as support with a guitar borrowed from China Crisis, and maintained his near 100% record of breaking a guitar string. China Crisis were excellent, a couple of impressive new tracks and all their 1980's new wave hits. The 1980's was a bit of a golden decade for me. Graduation from the LSE, my beloved MGB roadster, the only previous car of mine whose number plate I can remember. Marriage, a couple of years in the Far East, cross border M&A, lecturing in Hong Kong, San Francisco, Chicago, New York and Spain, buying our first house for £48,000, youngest Finance Director of a listed company, the births of Christopher and Josh. Would I turn back the clock if I could? Wishful Thinking.

Rescued from a thread: I will always remember the time, early in my sojourn at the job from *** when I decided I wanted to go to Worldcon the following year. I submitted my time off schedule in writing the prior December. I repeated it in January. In March I was asked to schedule vacations for everyone in my apartment, so I produced a chart that included my plans and gave it to my boss again. Then the month before my vacation I reminded the bosses that it was coming up. Then again two weeks before. Then, I got called into the office and told something I had to take care of the following week. I told them I'd be in San Francisco. "But I thought you were going tomorrow?" "Yes, I am. But I will still be there next week. It's a ten day trip." "I thought you were just going for four days and that you'd be back on Monday!"

Every 5 years the global elite has starved to death approx. 54,750,000 people for corporate profit increases made from false food and resource scarcity. Here is the math: 16,000 children starve to death every day + 14,000 adults (approx.) = 30,000 x 365 = 10,950,000 x 5 = 54,750,000 That is more people than Hitler, Stalin, Mao, and George Bush combined; also consider the fact that it sure ainât poor people who can afford their own slavery. Therefore it is safe to assume that the same global elite fund all these fascist slave regimes all over the planet, making our current elite the most spoiled, genocidal, and least responsible of them all. And itâs not like we donât have the technology to solve these problems peacefully, except who wants peace and equality, when the promise of having billions of slaves is right in front of you?

Farewell America How French Intelligence Wrote a Book about the Kennedy Assassination William Turner He was slight and fidgety, with a wispy mustache and fingertips yellowed by countless Gitanes. He called himself Herve Lamarr, but in the twilight world of intelligence that may not have been the name on his baptismal certificate. The Frenchman had called the day before, long distance, saying he had to see me. It was September 1968, three months after the assassination of Robert F. Kennedy in Los Angeles. I was familiar with Lamarr's project: a book titled Farewell America, which contended that the assassination of John F. Kennedy at Dallas on Nov. 22 was a conspiracy that robbed America of her future. As we sat in the coffee shop of the Fairmont Hotel on top of San Francisco's Nob Hill, I wondered what the great urgency was. Lamarr chitchatted earnestly, but had no punch line. I introduced Lamarr to Jim Rose, who was driving me to the airport to catch a plane for New York. Rose was a pilot who had flown C ...

ON THIS DATE (23 Years Ago) October 25, 1991 - Bill Graham/Wolodia Grajonca (b. January 8, 1931) tragically and sadly died in a helicopter crash, when it hit a 200ft utility tower in Sonoma County, California Born in Berlin, a Holocaust survivor and orphaned, fate eventually took him to America, where he stayed in a foster home in The Bronx in New York City. After being taunted as an immigrant and being called a Nazi because of his German accent, he taught himself a perfect New York accent, graduated from DeWitt Clinton High School, changed his name, and was drafted into the United States Army in 1951, serving in the Korean War, where he was awarded both the Bronze Star and Purple Heart.

Heartbreaking sounds from the SF SPCA vet hospital. Just earlier, I drove past a pair of older homeless people (a New York kinda gruffly male and an obliterated drunk woman) in a shouting and flailing brawl over $10. Such a grey day in San Francisco. The silver lining is that it rained. Mad world.

San Francisco is playing at St. Louis tonight in NFL Monday Night Football on ESPN. San Francisco played at St. Louis last night in MLB NLCS baseball on FOX Sports 1. In football it's the 49ers vs. the Rams. In baseball it's the Giants vs. the Cardinals. The baseball Giants, now in San Francisco, were originally from New York. The New York football Giants played last night vs. the Philadelphia Eagles in NFL Sunday Night Football on NBC. The Rams originated in Cleveland in 1936, moved to Los Angeles in 1946 until 1994. Now the Rams are St. Louis' football team. St. Louis used to be the home of the football Cardinals, which are now based in Arizona. The baseball Cardinals advanced to play the baseball Giants by defeating the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Federal Reserve SYSTEM is United States banking system which began operation on Nov. 16, 1914. The system consists of 12 Federal Reserve banks, 25 branches, two agencies, and a government supervisory body in Washington known as the board of governors of the Federal Reserve system. The 12 reserve banks are in Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Cleveland, Richmond, Atlanta, Chicago, St. Louis, Minneapolis, Kansas City, Dallas, and San Francisco. The reserve banks are bankers' bank in that they perform for the banks of the United States a service similar to that which commercial banks of deposit perform for their customers.They receive deposits from banks; they make loans to banks; and they receive and collect checks. In addition, they have power to issue Federal Reserve notes and act as fiscal agents of the United States. In more technical language, they are banks of issue and rediscount, with somewhat similar powers to the Bank of England, the Bank of France, the Reichsbank, and other European banks of issue. ...

Iâm all for protecting the environment, and we should continue to fully invest in technologies that can harness energy from the sun, wind and tides, with the goal of generating a large source of low cost power. However it always troubles me to see the Hollywood Stars that take leadership roles in environmental groups that complain about current fossil fuels being used when they live in multiple 25,000 sq ft mansions that require an abundance of energy to heat and AC and fly in private jets. Take Leo DiCaprio for example. He participated in the mid-day march, through midtown Manhattan along Central Park just two days before a United Nations summit on Tuesday at which world leaders will discuss how to decrease carbon emissions that scientists concerned about global warming believe threaten the environment. He always flies in private jets to multiple destinations around the world. According to The New York Times, a round-trip, commercial flight from New York to, say, San Francisco creates about three ton . ...

Apple has finally got the âbigâ religion. Americaâs biggest smartphone maker on Tuesday unveiled two new and larger-screen iPhones at a glitzy launch event in San Francisco. The event, which was one of the most anticipated in recent years, also saw the announcement of the Apple Watch, the companyâs first foray into the wearable computing space, and Apple Pay, its take on smartphone payments. This was easily the most important keynote that Apple CEO Tim Cook has delivered since taking the reins from the late Steve Jobs in August 2011. The market liked what it saw, at least at first, pushing the share price up by as much as 5% in intraday trading. But it fell back sharply in late afternoon trading in New York to end down by 0,4%. Itâs becoming increasingly difficult for Apple to keep anything itâs doing secret ahead of its big launch events. This yearâs big iPhone event was no different. The new one will be available in two variants, the iPhone 6 and the iPhone 6 Plus. The former will feature ...

"Skyline of the World" begins on the right, near the terminal entrance, with some well-known and lesser-known buildings of New York. Continuing to the left, the skyline proceeds, including buildings from cities throughout the world. "Skyline of the World" juxtaposes well known international landmarks such as the Sydney Opera House with the Toronto City Hall and the Fuji TV Building in Tokyo. At the center of this procession, the Brooklyn Bridge appears from the wall behind it. The skyline then begins to narrow and become smaller, concluding at a point where passengers approach the concourses where they can glimpse the real New York skyline through the terminal's large windows. Structures representing American Airlines destinations from JFK -- including Chicago, San Francisco, London, Paris, Rome, Tokyo, Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro -- are all shown
Centuries-old Mystery Comes to Light The FACTS AS THEY ARE ALLEGED: On November 29, 1848, young Heinrich Muller set off from his upstate New York farm to the California goldfields. The 24-year-old left behind his wife, Eliza, a three-month old son, two brothers and his parents. His plan was to strike it rich and return to Oneida County and purchase more farm land. Muller survived the four-month steamship voyage to Panama, then slogged across the Isthmus before boarding another steamship for the two-week trip to San Francisco. Upon his California arrival, he wangled his way onto a wagon heading to the newly named âHangtownâ in the Sierra Nevada foothills. After six-weeks of digging with others, Muller had found a bit of gold, seen a hanging or two and had his picture taken with all his new equipment in Hangtown! In a letter dated April 14, 1849 he wrote of his plans to go solo gold panning. His goal was to head up 13 miles northwest to a mining camp called Pilot Hill. THE LETTER: Mrs. Eliza Muller Post ...

history of camera: The Committee for Accuracy in Middle East Reporting in America, or CAMERA, was founded in Washington, DC in 1982 by Winifred Meiselman, a teacher and social worker. Mrs. Meiselman formed CAMERA to respond to the Washington Postâs coverage of Israelâs Lebanon incursion, and to the paperâs general anti-Israel bias. Joining CAMERAâs Executive Board in the early days were such prominent Washington-area residents as Saul Stern and Bernard White. Win also recruited an Advisory Board which included Senators Rudy Boschwitz and Charles Grassley, Congressman Tom Lantos, journalist M. Stanton Evans, Ambassador Charles Lichenstein, Pastor Roy Stewart, and Rabbi David Yellin. Under Winâs leadership CAMERA created chapters in major cities, including New York, Chicago, Fort Lauderdale, Los Angeles, Miami, San Francisco, Philadelphia, and in 1988 a Boston chapter and office, founded and led by Andrea Levin. Ms. Levin had taught English in inner-city Philadelphia, and later served as associate ...
MUITA GENTE AINDA NAO SABE DA OTIMA LEI QUE O PREFEITO BILL DE BLASIO ASSINOU! Thursday, July 10, 2014 NEW YORK -- New York will offer identification cards to residents regardless of their immigration statuses under a plan expected that was signed into law by Mayor Bill de Blasio Thursday to create the nation's biggest municipal ID program. The legislation paves the way for the creation of a municipal ID for all New York City residents who meet the program's proof of identity and city residency requirements. The City will immediately initiate implementation of the program, with the goal of launching the new identification card in January 2015. de Blasio announced Thursdzay that the card will be issued at no cost for applicants during the program's first year. "The message is that the city belongs to everyone, regardless of who you are," Council Speaker Melissa Mark-Viverito said before the heavily Democratic council passed the measure 43-3 back in June.

This Is Y Vaccination Is Sooo Important: Here are three of the diseases that have come back due to the anti-vaccine movement: 1. Measles After the measles vaccine was introduced in 1963, incidences of the diseases dropped by 99%. Since then, there have been an average of 60 measles cases per year in the U.S., but that number increased to 222 cases in 2011. Outbreaks have been reported in New York, Boston, Philadelphia, San Francisco and Los Angeles. 2. Mumps An ongoing outbreak at Ohio State University has resulted in 23 confirmed cases, and there was a similar outbreak at New York's Fordham University last month, with over a dozen students affected. Before the vaccine was introduced in 1967, there were 300,000 cases of mumps per year. Although that number sharply declined in later years to 200 incidences per year, in 2006 alone, there were 6,584 cases of mumps. Another outbreak in 2009 led to 3,400 cases. 3. Whooping cough At the height of the epidemic, whooping cough afflicted more than 250,000 children ...
July 1914 For five years AT&T had wanted to link the phone lines from one side of the country to the other. They finally found the device that could help them do it: Lee De Forest's "audions," the first vacuum tubes. They placed them along the 3,400 miles of wires connecting one coast to the other. As a voice signal traveled along the wires it naturally weakened. Every time it hit an audion, the signal was boosted. The first trial took place in July of 1914, when the president of the company, Theodore Vail, spoke from one coast to the other -- his voice boosted in Pittsburgh, Omaha, and Salt Lake City along the way. But the big celebration didn't occur until January 25, 1915, at a meeting in San Francisco. Sitting in New York, Alexander Graham Bell said into the phone what he had once said decades before: "Mr. Watson, come here. I want you." But this time Watson, sitting in San Francisco, replied, "It will take me five days to get there now!" Resources: -- Crystal Fire by Michael Riordan and Lillian Hodd ...

Victor The Overman Wheel Company gained international stature during the 1890s as the manufacturer of the Victor/Victoria bicycles, reputed to be the finest of the new model "safety" bicycles built in the United States. With offices in Boston, New York, Detroit, Denver, San Francisco, Los Angles, Portland, Oregon, and in Europe, Overman challenged Albert A. Pope's Columbia Bicycle Company of Hartford, Connecticut, for leadership in the booming bicycle business of the late nineteenth century. By 1897, prices began to fall, and cheap knockoffs flooded the market, damaging the reputation of companies such as the Overman Wheel Company, which would be forced into bankruptcy before going out of business after 1899. (masshist.org) However, in 1899 A. H. Overman decided to produce a Steam Car he called the Victor. Overman named his Steam Car after the bicycle that he made. Overman sold his Victor Bicycle business to the Stevens Arms & Tool Co. also of Chicopee Falls, MA in 1900. In 1901 A. H. Overman reorganized ...

June 19, 2014 is National Martini Day Today is National Martini Day! Although the exact origin of the martini is unknown, this iconic drink has earned a permanent place in the pantheon of classic cocktails. The first printed recipe for a âMartinezâ cocktail appeared in a bartending manual published in San Francisco in 1887. However, historians disagree over whether the beverage actually originated on the West Coast. In 1911, a New York City bartender named Martini di Arma di Taggia began serving a cocktail made with gin, vermouth, orange bitters, and an olive garnish. The martini gained widespread popularity among Manhattan socialites, and has been associated with New York ever since. Today, 50% of all cocktails are served in a martini glass. Some of the most famous (historical and fictional) martini lovers include: John D. Rockefeller, Humphrey Bogart, Franklin D. Roosevelt, Clark Gable, Ernest Hemingway, and James Bond. To celebrate National Martini Day, enjoy a refreshing martini in the company of ...

Opponents of the Washington Redskins' name have once more made it clear: They're not going to stop and they plan to target more than just football fans with an ad scheduled to run during the NBA Finals. The Yocha Dehe Wintun Nation will run a one-minute ad Tuesday night during Game 3 between the San Antonio Spurs and Miami Heat. The ad, part of the Change the Mascot campaign, will air only in Washington, San Francisco, Chicago, Dallas, Los Angeles, New York and Sacramento. Meanwhile, the Redskins hired a lobbying firm. According to Politico, in the disclosure announcing the hiring of McGuire Woods Consulting in late May, it stated their responsibilities will be "discussions of team origins, history and traditions, Washington Redskins Charitable Foundation and youth sports, activities of Original Americans' Foundation." The Redskins used former political consultant Lanny Davis to combat some of the criticism last year. They've also tried to diffuse some of the controversy by starting a foundation designed ...

June 8, 1896, Frank Maguire Mayo, famous stage actor and comedian, died in Grand Island Nebraska at the age of 57. He was best known for portraying Davy Crockett and Mark Twain's Pudd'nhead Wilson onstage. As a 17-year-old living in San Francisco, he began acting, soon performing with the Edwin Booth troupe in Shakespearean roles. His first real success was in the role of Badger in "The Streets of New York" in 1865. In 1872, the same year Buffalo Bill Cody visited the Bowery Theatre to see J.B. Studley wearing buckskin and portraying Cody, Mayo began appearing in a revival of the Davy Crockett role in a play titled "Davy Crockett: Or Be Sure You're Right, Then Go Ahead" which he continued to perform for 24 years, in both American and in England until his death. His homespun, humorous interpretation of the frontiersman, was based on the role portrayed by the illiterate Crockett himself as he campaigned for election in Tennessee when he spun tall tales surrounding his life growing up and whose speeches were ...

Actor Denzel Hayes Washington was born on December 28, 1954, in Mount Vernon, New York. Washington is considered to be one of the most engaging leading men of our time. He is the son of a Pentecostal minister and a beauty shop owner and has two siblings. Washington first took the stage around the age of 7 or 8, appearing in a talent show at his local Boys & Girls Club. The club provided him with a safe place to be and to help keep him out of trouble. When he was 14, his parents' marriage broke down and he and his older sister were sent away to boarding school. Washington went to Fordham University, but he proved to be a poor student initially. After taking some time away from college, he returned to the university with a new interest in acting. Washington later won a scholarship to the American Conservatory Theater in San Francisco, and afterwards worked with the Shakespeare in the Park ensemble. Washington made his feature film debut in the comedy A Carbon Copy (1981). He also appeared in a number of off ...

Maya Angelou (1928 â 2014): She Put A Smile on the Face of the World Written By Jonah Raskin I never met Maya Angelou but I knew her one and only son, Guy Johnson, who took me to the Sonoma Hotel on the plaza in the town of Sonoma and showed me the room where she wrote Gather Together in My Name, the second in the series of seven autobiographies that bear her name. If Guy was rightly proud of her so, too, America was proud of her, and perhaps the whole world as well that devoured her poetry, pondered her essays, made ample use of her cookbooks, watched her perform on stage and cheered as she recited âOn the Pulse of the Morningâ at Bill Clintonâs inauguration in 1993. When she died on May 28, 2014 at the age of 86 the news traveled from North Carolina, where she was born, to Arkansas, where she spent part of her childhood, to San Francisco, New York, Tokyo, London, and the world of post-apartheid South Africa that her friend Nelson Mandela helped bring kicking and screaming into existence. She s ...
Did you know author & poet Maya Angelou was also a dancer. She studied dance & drama at the California Labor School & met dancers and choreographers Alvin Ailey & Ruth Beckford. Angelou & Ailey formed a dance team, calling themselves "Al and Rita". In her 20s, she moved to New York to study African dance with Trinidadian dancer Pearl Primus. In the early 1950s, she danced and sang calypso in night clubs in San Francisco.
"The precise Californian city in which the fortune cookie was invented is the subject of perhaps the most heated debate of our time â so heated, that there was actually a mock trial held in the â80s to settle the dispute, and San Francisco won. These days, the largest manufacturers are in Brooklyn and New York, but as in many instances, San Francisco wins for tiniest, cutest, and making-it-by-handiest â in this case, for fortune cookie manufacturers."

For all you girls that thing your hipsters, think twice.. here's the definition... educa te yourself on what your trying to be that your not. Hipsters are a subculture of men and women typically in their 20's and 30's that value independent thinking, counter-culture, progressive politics, an appreciation of art and indie-rock, creativity, intelligence, and witty banter. The greatest concentrations of hipsters can be found living in the Williamsburg, Wicker Park, and Mission District neighborhoods of major cosmopolitan centers such as New York, Chicago, and San Francisco respectively. Although "hipsterism" is really a state of mind,it is also often intertwined with distinct fashion sensibilities. Hipsters reject the culturally-ignorant attitudes of mainstream consumers, and are often be seen wearing vintage and thrift store inspired fashions, tight-fitting jeans, old-school sneakers, and sometimes thick rimmed glasses. Both hipster men and women sport similar androgynous hair styles that include combinatio ...

Did you know there is an edible garden for inmates on Rikers Island in New York? Reoffending has dropped to 6% for those involved!! Compare that to 29% recidivism rate for those who don't garden!! Check out some more successful prison gardens in the link below. "These types of programs not only enhance the environment by increasing the green:asphalt ratio, but growing food near prison sites improves the nutritional intake of the inmates, as well as trains them for green jobs when they get outâa track that when followed has been proven to reduce the rate at which former inmates return to prison. One study in San Francisco showed that 29 percent of prisoners were re-arrested within four months of their release, while only 6 percent of those who partook in a gardening program were re-arrested."
My commencement address to the Class of 2014. Wherever you are... get out. Even if you grew up in cool cities like New York or San Francisco, or Chicago or Nashville... get out. There is way more to life than your hometown, as much as you love it, and you always will... or you might even hate it and you don't need this verbal push. The world is big, time is short. Live hard, love fast, experience everything, travel, travel, travel, and experience things your mother said was "bad for you", but remember to never take things to extreme... like drugs and alcohol for instance... they can be bad, and I know this from experience. Pursue all dreams, but if they don't come true, you might have to resort to other means to make a living, and that resort might become a rewarding career... so, be open to it, unless that resort is prostitution or a corporate investor. You are NOT the only person on Earth, and your entry into this world isn't any more special than the billions of others who inhabit this marble, s ...

Coffee History.1956 " Those were the days my friend, we thought they'd never end" This is the beginning of the modern era of coffee houses in areas such as North Beach in San Francisco and Greenwich Village in New York where Jazz beats play and intellectuals, poets, and the avant-garde exchange revolutionary ideas of politics and philosophy over coffee and espresso. This gives rise to the counter-culture of the Beatniks, Bohemians, and other free thinkers and their rebellion against traditions, setting the stage for the political and cultural revolutions of the 1960s.

Life and careerr Myers was born in San Francisco, the daughter of an Australian rabbi and Austrian Jewish mother.[1] Her father became well-connected with California's emerging film industry, and introduced her to film pioneer D. W. Griffith, who gave Carmel a small part in Intolerance (1916). Myers also got her brother Zion Myers into Hollywood as a writer/director. From this beginning, Myers left for New York, where she acted mainly on stage for the next two years. She was signed by Universal, where she emerged as a popular actress in vamp roles.

I don't think I could have lived in any of the five New York City Burroughs. I guess if I was born in one it would have been different. I never liked LA much, but but I didn't spend much time there. That Big Hollywood sign and those sidewalks in Hollywood with all the stars footprints outside of Grauman's Chinese theater was good for a day. I've always been culturally and geographically adaptable. I loved the Bay Area and the city of San Francisco and the fresh sea food at the piers but I felt more at home in the desert, for some reason it fit my personality. It's Friday the weekend begins, there is a breeze and it's happy hour so I think I'll go see if I can get some cute bartender to put a smile on my face!...

For a real mezzo, the chance to play Cherubino â and actually get paid for it â thatâs worth a lot. Sheâs lucky if she breaks even on the deal â but then sheâll have that role on her resume.

There was a lovely memorial service for my Mom at her church this morning. Part of it was a time for friends and family members to say things. Here's what I said. When my Mom was in the Coast Guard in W.W. II she was stationed in New Orleans and she met a handsome sailor and married him. That was my father. He was a good fellow, from all I've learned. The problem was that he had a girl back home he really wanted to go back to. So the marriage ended. I wound up being raised by my Mom's parents. They were wonderful people and they were very good to me. Too good to me, probably.. In any event when I was growing up with my grandparents and my Mom was raising her Davis family in Mentor-On-The-Lake I didn't see her all that often and never got to know her very well. Years went by. In the late 1990's I was in San Francisco making my living as a sidewalk banjo player. A friend of mine in New York wanted to meet me in Las Vegas. At the same time my Mom was going to Las Vegas for the purpose of seeing t ...

EAST - Boston Red Sox A.L. CENTRAL - Detroit Tigers A.L. WEST - Oakland Athletics Wild Card - Kansas City Royals Wild Card - Tampa Bay Rays (I also think that Baltimore, New York, and maybe Cleveland will be in it as well)

I am searching for any information on my great grandmother. Her name was Bertha Warshauer Kaplan and all I know is that she was born in Russia (now the Ukraine) in 1885 and died in San Francisco in 1967.

I am working on ways to get more on the Kaplan side but the Warshauer side is also of interest. Is anyone else connected to or searching for this name? Thanks!! Laura
