Guy himself died in 2002.Guy Rockwell Muldavin

Last week, a Massachusetts prosecutor announced that his office determined that Terry’s killer was her husband, Guy Rockwell Muldavin. In the 1980s, Muldavin hosted a popular three-hour weekly radio show, “Talk to Me,” on KAZU radio in Pacific Grove.

In 1985, a reporter for The Californian newspaper featured Muldavin and his radio show. “During the show, Muldavin draws on his experiences and conversations with
other people to deal with topics such as cuts in Social Security, Alzheimer’s disease and feelings about old people having sex,” the article said.
Muldavin was also the prime suspect in the murder of a previous wife and Stepdaughter in Seattle in the 1960s, according to the Associated Press. Those murders have not been solved, however.

Cultural Proficiency Takes Precedence For Teachers

Grading practices? In the 1970s it was pass ’em all regardless of the child’s ability to prove they were educated.

PGhs Speling

Oh, and having the DEI people on board can’t be a good sign.

Included in the ongoing cultural proficiency training for PGUSD staff, he said, are “instructional materials that represent diverse and “culturally proficient instructional strategies and grading practices.”

The district invited members of the city’s Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Task Force to attend the board meeting to listen in on the topic.

PGUSD’s invitation to members of the DEI Task Force this week comes after the task force’s vice chair, Nadja Mark, was accused of comparing a seemingly noncontroversial online comment by a citizen and member of the city’s economic development commission to the work of Nazi propaganda chief Joseph Goebbels.
That comment and other remarks Mark made on social media violated the city’s code of conduct, which prohibits members of city commissions and committees from making negative comments, including on social media, that could offend members of the public, and compels them to “show tolerance and respect other party’s opinions.”

Shark Makes Movie At Lovers Point

Otters and sea lions beware. The more we welcome and protect the prey, the more hunters we will get.

Great White Shark

The video, taken on Friday, shows the shark’s dorsal fin and tail appearing out of the water as it swims between the shoreline and the nearby kelp.

Barbara Block is a marine science professor at Stanford University, located at Hopkins Marine Station. Block tells KSBW 8 this is a very common spotting this time of year.

“At this time of year, we have a variety of shark species in the Monterey Bay region, including mako, white sharks, thresher sharks and leopard sharks,” said Block.

Wesley Langkamp joins the dumb criminals club.

A Pacific Grove man got a response he wasn’t expecting when he texted the wrong co-conspirator while trying to set up an armed confrontation with a group of men in Monterey Aug. 17, according to Monterey Police Lt. Ethan Andrews- Instead of his cohort, the police showed up.

The sender, later identified as 38-year-old Wesley Langkamp, “requested assistance in confronting a group of males.” He then texted the officer that he was waiting on North Fremont Street and described the car he was driving so, a few MPD officers headed to the area and found Langkamp in his vehicle,

What Fire Didn’t Take Out The Demolition Team Will

LaPorte Mansion

On May 26, a fire broke out at what’s known as the LaPorte Mansion at 1030 Lighthouse, severely damaging the five-bedroom, four-bathroom home, built in 1895. It appeared in Hollywood productions in the 1950s and 1970s but was in need of renovation. After the fire, the owner, Bill Turrentine, opted to tear it down.

A worker told The Pine Cone Thursday morning that the process of tearing down the home could begin Monday and that crews would likely be there all week cleaning up the remnants of the demolished home.

Newcomer Wants Live Music And Alcohol On Forest Ave

Good location. Are the apartments on the second floor still rented out? Hope they don’t have to share a sewer line with Pavel’s.

Resident Michaela Kuenster has proposed opening a business called Pop & Hiss in a 2,640-square-foot commercial building at 215 Forest Ave., formerly the site of a silk screen shop.

Kuenster — a music teacher who moved to P.G. from Los Angeles five years ago — said she envisions a record shop, food, a live music venue that could accommodate about 80 people, and an enclosed 1,450-square-foot beer garden to the rear of the building on Grand Avenue.

Need For Speed – Rec Trail

Racers whiz by, tourists block the paved portion. Admin here was nearly run over by two E-Bikes on the sidewalk downtown.

Bicycle Crash

Pacific Grove took a different approach when e-bikes started appearing on the scene, and in 2020 set a unilateral 12mph speed limit on its portion of the Rec Trail. I am not a fast biker, but on flat ground, I can tell you that you don’t even have to break a sweat to exceed 12mph on a regular old human-powered bike. Five minutes of observation in P.G. is all it takes to see this bizarrely low speed limit violated, and the same old premise that predated the speed limit comes into play: Pay attention and be courteous.

Unfortunately, for busy stretches of multi-use resources like the Rec Trail, “pay attention and be courteous” may not be enough clarity. The potential for widening the Rec Trail is low, Garcia tells me, based on right-of-way. Look for more on potential signage and speed limits to come in the coming years as the data gathering process ramps up.
