See What Happens When They Don’t Lock The Doors To The Mvsevm?

And now they have to take a full inventory.

The Mvsevm

Attendance in May exceeded last year’s by 80 percent, said museum director Lori Mannel. She attributes increased public interest in the museum’s programs for children and adults.

Its Science Saturdays bring scientific experts from throughout the region to the museum, other programs feature artists demonstrating their work and techniques and authors lecture on their books. The restoration of the Native Plant Garden was completed in April. These events have advanced the museum’s role as “a living field guide for the Central Coast,” Mannel said. “We’re becoming a regional resource.”

Artists demonstrating their work. Authors lecturing on their books. How many of these visits have nothing related to a museum? Sustainable P.G. kooks lapping up Dan Cort rewriting the history of his failures should not count as visits to view natural history.

Let’s give out free beer at the Mvsevm during the farmers market and we can quadruple attendance.

Dissing The Armed Forces Then Hits Lady With Beer Bottle

Tyler Tirado, you are a loser.

Arrested for DUI August 2008

No respect for those that protect your freedom. Almost reminds me about the P.G. Ice Cream Shoppe where the military are not welcome.

Tirado

Police said Tyler Tirado, of Monterey, had confronted the group of Defense Language Institute students, called them “baby killers” and struck a 20-year-old woman in the head with a beer bottle.

Officers responded around 11:50 p.m. on the 1800 block of Sunset Drive to reports of a woman with a one-inch cut to her scalp.

The victim and about a dozen of her friends, police said, were gathering on Asilomar Beach when they were confronted by another group who began making derogatory comments towards them.

Public Works Director Terminated

Another Colon-Jello come-here gets the ax. Lots of mismanaged public works projects under her watch such as the clear cutting of the butterfly trees.

By the way, can someone clean up that downtown juxtaposition of American flags, paper lanterns and X-mas lights and focus on one season at a time?

Celia Perez Martinez, Pacific Grove’s public works director for the past four years, has been terminated from her job.

The reasons for her separation from the city are confidential personnel issues, all four city officials said.

Martinez, a Salinas resident, was hired by the city Jan. 15, 2006, as public works supervisor under then-City Manager Jim Colangelo. She was named business manager May 8, 2007.

Smart Meter Backlash – For All The Wrong Reasons

You’d think the protests would be about loss of privacy, grossly inaccurate readings or detecting that one has an indoor pot garden (this is an article from Santa Cruz), but no. People are imagining ill effects of the RF energy by them. Is it same people that became ill when moth spraying was scheduled, but didn’t happen?

Joshua Hart said he was protesting PG&E’s smart meters after researching the amount of radiation that comes from the devices.

“It’s significantly higher than cell phones. (In) brief periods of time, you have short spikes of intense electromagnetic radiation,” Hart said. PG&E started installing the smart meters in Santa Cruz County in July.

Marilyn Garret said she has a smart meter at her Aptos home.

“It makes me feel quite ill,” Garret said. “My tremors increase and (I have) very painful headaches.”

Pebble Beach “Art Theft” Updates

Insurance investigators look for proof of ownership, DA backs off on charges against “victims”.

The saga began when the artwork was reported stolen from a rented Pebble Beach home in September. Its value has been estimated by Amadio at up to $27 million for a collection said to include works by Jackson Pollock, Van Gogh, Miro and Rembrandt.

County prosecutors last week decided not to file charges stemming from a sheriff’s investigation looking into whether the men may have filed a false police report, sheriff’s Cmdr. Mike Richards said.

A sheriff’s detective recently had an “informal discussion” with the Monterey County District Attorney’s Office to determine if criminal charges related to the reported burglary might be filed, Richards said.

I still do not support any more taxes until cuts are made elsewhere. Fool me once…

There was a sense, Headley said, that Measure J would only “save the library at the level it had sunken to.”

Language in the new initiative has been written to assure the public that funds raised would support only the library and not be transferred to other city departments, she said. The parcel tax is expected to raise $600,000 in additional revenue each year. The ballot measure requires that the city continue to fund the library at the rate of 2.83 percent of the total general fund budget.
