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.

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.

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.

Jewell Park Clubhouse To get Remodeled

Posted on by

One of the greatest things that could happen to P.G., in Moammar speak. I remember seeing old men playing dominoes in there when I was a kid.

The house was built and donated by Pacific Grove Rotary in 1952 and has been a venue for community and support group meetings, including Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous.

In addition to meetings, the renovated meeting house will serve increased needs generated by the use of Jewell Park for the Monday farmers market.

Pollacci Gets Maximum Sentence

Tom Pollacci

“Mr. Pollacci has a well known, long lasting and enduring reputation as a rapist,” said Monterey County Superior Court Judge Russell Scott before pronouncing the sentence.

Scott also said Pollacci showed a great deal of “sophistication” and forethought in planning his attacks. And he quoted a letter from a woman who said she was one of Pollacci’s earlier victims. “He has no reason to live a productive life due to his family, who is willing to take care of him,” wrote the woman

Setting the stage for civil suit. I say go get ’em.

Aaron Corn DUI Charges – Who Bought The Beer?

No one is saying.

No additional charges will be filed in connection with a Feb. 21 accident that injured five Pacific Grove High School students, including 18-year-old Chelsie Hill, who was partially paralyzed.

While the driver of the vehicle, Aaron Corn, 18, faces felony drunken driving charges, Carr said no one will be charged with furnishing alcohol that Corn allegedly drank before he crashed into a tree off rain-slickened Skyline Drive.

“We don’t have the evidence to support a furnishing (alcohol to a minor) charge against an adult,” Carr said. “We don’t have any information to hold an adult responsible.”

According to records obtained by The Herald, Monterey police investigated reports that a 21-year-old acquaintance purchased two 30-packs of Keystone beer at Rite Aid in Pacific Grove and gave them to the teenagers. The allegation was not supported by security video from the store, and the man denied involvement.
