Jellyfish Win Latest Bay Crossing Challenge
Jellyfish 3, Humans 2
Dublin’s Patti Bauernfeind made it about halfway through her second attempt to swim across the Monterey Bay on Tuesday morning before jellyfish stings once again forced her to stop.
Cindy Cleveland crossed the Monterey Bay in 1983 in 17 hours, becoming the only person known to complete the swim without a wetsuit. Last year, Santa Cruz native Chase Bruckner completed the swim in 14 hours after stopping near Moss Landing to put on a wetsuit when jellyfish stings became unbearable.
Have We Forgotten The Squid?
Oohhh, the Squid Festival. That was fun. I’d start a calamari booth at the Farmer’s Market just to be able to munch on fresh squid.
Even with those record hauls, Tringali laments the overall loss of identity with squid in the general community, pointing to the now-defunct Monterey Bay Squid Festival, the annual Memorial Day weekend event that ended its run in the late 1980s.
“It would be fantastic to have a squid festival again, but it’s hard to get people to (organize) it,” said Tringali, who encouraged squid fans to try instead the local Santa Rosalia Festival, a free event in September that blesses the local fleet and serves a myriad of Italian delicacies such as calamari.
NOAA Lights Approved By CCC, Hated By JQP
It’s the government approving what the government wants, silly. And taxpayers foot the bill.
The lights drawing protest include six 24-foot-tall fiberglass poles with attached LED lights, solar panels and battery units, which some residents say look out of place in the scenic neighborhood.
But according to NOAA, the new low-wattage lights are an improvement over the old halogen system because they are “dark sky certified,” turn off three hours after sunset and turn on one hour before sunrise, and don’t have as much effect on the night sky, points reiterated by the coastal commission.
“The LED lights will reduce the footprint and intensity of night-time lighting when compared to the previous non-directional searchlights that illuminated the [NOAA] parking lots,” Delaplaine wrote, “and the commission believes this element of the project yields a reduction in adverse lighting effects on adjacent neighborhoods and environmentally sensitive habitat.”
Sheriff Miller’s Son Arrested On Drug Charges
Let the gossip & conspiracy stories begin.
Cmdr. Jerry Teeter said Miller was arrested at the residence on suspicion of possessing methamphetamine for sale and possession of drug paraphernalia.
Detectives found the drugs packaged in a manner consistent with sales, Teeter said.
The search began about 11 a.m., and according to a neighbor, deputies remained on the property until about 2:30 p.m.
Sheriff Miller said he first learned of the investigation shortly before deputies arrested his son.
“I was informed they were executing a search warrant on my son’s apartment while they were on the property and knocking on the door,” Sheriff Miller said.
Stove Fire On Wave Street
Was someone drinking wine from Torelli’s and didn’t notice the fire?
The fire was reported shortly after 4 p.m., firefighters said, in the kitchen of a house at 470 Wave St.
Three engines and a ladder truck responded and the fire was confined to the kitchen, firefighters said. The blaze originated on the kitchen stove, which was removed from the house after the fire was put out. No one was injured, firefighters said.
Aquarium Cleans, Renames Exhibit
Remodel from “Outer Bay” into “The Open Sea”. Notice that the Fish Jail is losing most of the Monterey Bay part of it’s name?
In what may be the mother of all fish tank spring-cleaning projects, the Monterey Bay Aquarium is putting the final touches on the overhaul of its Outer Bay tank — a 1 million gallon structure that holds more water than the other 90 tanks in the aquarium combined and ranks among the largest tanks in the United States. It’s all part of a $19 million transformation that re-opens to the public Saturday.
7 More Rape Victims To Testify Against Pollacci
Good chance of Tom being put away for life.
Tom Pollacci won’t have to face the woman whose powerful testimony riveted his first rape trial last spring, with her story of being kidnapped in her bathrobe and raped by him in 1980 when she was just 16 years old.
But seven other women who say they were raped by Pollacci — including Jane Doe 10, whose accusations resulted in his conviction in April 2010 and sentence of eight years in prison — will be allowed to testify against him on charges of raping two more victims in 2007 and 2008, a judge ruled Friday.Prosecutors now say there at least 10 women were victimized by Pollacci during a crime spree that began when he was 20 years old and continued while he worked at his family’s liquor stores in Carmel and Pacific Grove

Presidio Plans Portal On 68 Pikeway
A new entrance, could it help the traffic at Lighthouse & PVT. Bolio?
The work, which would include widening Highway 68 near the S.F.B. Morse Gate into Pebble Beach, could cause major traffic problems on the two-lane highway, the document shows.
The new gate, or “access control point” as the Army calls it, would “shift traffic demands” from the DLI’s existing gates and handle more than 700 cars each hour during morning and evening commutes, according to a 2010 Presidio of Monterey traffic study, the EIS shows.
