Kind of like the immigration policy. Come here, give birth and you can stay. Will there be social programs for the seals? Fish Stamps?
The P.G. City Council Oct. 16 unanimously agreed to clarify the harbor-seal protection policy in the city charter. If pups are delivered at Lovers Point, officials will temporarily close the beach, install fences and post signs to keep the public away while they wean.
I’m all choked up…
Will the fights go on?
Nino and Marie Favaloro stand side by side at the stove in their aprons, stirring, in steady dignity, as their son John brings us to say goodnight. They look up, full of graciousness, not stopping stirring. They are still cooking for a restaurant that is full of diners at 9p.m., and was full when we walked in at 7:30.
This feeling of family pervades the restaurant that has served classic Italian on Lighthouse Avenue for going on 20 years — minus its time under a spell like Sleeping Beauty’s castle, in which a fire caused them to be closed for 18 months. Not 100 years, but it felt to everyone, loyal patrons included, that long.
Sedated and left to wake up with the munchies in a different place.
Workers responded on Oct. 10 to the school’s athletic field where the deer was discovered. To ensure the frightened animal didn’t hurt himself, rescue workers sedated him. Once the deer was sleeping, the workers dug a hole and guided him out from beneath the fence.
The deer was released to an area where he could safely regain consciousness and return to the woods. The entire operation spanned about two hours.

The most ambitious missions of the stormwater management project: to repurpose a California American Water corporate yard on David Avenue into a reservoir, and to renovate an abandoned wastewater treatment plant at Point Pinos back into productivity.
P.G. Environmental Programs Manager Sarah Hardgrave says the David Avenue reservoir could capture stormwater above Pine Avenue and send it through a new storm drain to a renovated Point Pinos wastewater treatment plant, which operated from the early 1950s to the late 1970s. Once treated, the water could irrigate the municipal golf course and cemetery, which currently use about 125 acre-feet of potable Cal Am water a year.
Are the suspects from Pebble Beach? DMP NIMBYs fear the workers’ housing.
Two women were robbed at approximately 9:48 p.m. Saturday on the 1200 block of Lincoln Avenue, according to the Pacific Grove Police Department.
The women had just returned home and as they exited their vehicle they were approached by a man who pointed a handgun at them and demanded their belongings.

Did you know that three out of the five offenders on Megan’s Law for the entire zip code 93950 are in Del Monte Park? Do the people against the Pebble Beach low cost housing know that? Do the people planning to move there know that?
Speaking Of Del Monte Park – It Holds 40% Of P.G. Sex Offenders
Well, their odds of being injured by a drunk have played out. Mine on the other hand have yet to be met. Please keep me safe and keep the man in jail..
Corn has served roughly half of his sentence, taking good behavior credits into consideration. If his full sentence is reinstated, he will likely be incarcerated 2½ years more.
“I’m just asking for one chance to prove that I can be a better person than I was three years ago,” he told Scott.
Scott then asked Corn a question, telling him he didn’t have to answer.
The judge read a three-year-old letter to the court from the father of one of Corn’s passengers that said Corn was manipulative and had lived “a lifetime of bad decisions.”
Scott asked Corn what he had to say about the statement.
Corn appeared stunned by the words and said he hardly knew the father, adding, “That’s not who I am.”
Prosecutor Todd Hornik asked for Corn’s full sentence to be reinstated.
“He will walk out” of prison, Hornik said. “Miss Hill will never walk.”
Hornik said Corn, who had been in a residential rehabilitation program before the crash, had used up his second chances.
“If he hadn’t been afforded that opportunity while he was in juvenile rehab, we wouldn’t be here today,” Hornik said.
Bicycles – dangerous in the hands of ill prepared riders.
Police, Monterey Fire Department and MR Ambulance were sent to an injury crash at 12:23 p.m. Monday in the area of Central Avenue and 14th Street in Pacific Grove.
The bicyclist was suffering from a laceration above her left eye and additional head trauma.
The investigation found the woman was riding her bicycle without a helmet eastbound on Central Avenue approaching 14th Street when she collided with the rear of a 2005 Honda Accord.
Self sustaining before it was a UN buzz phrase. One of the few remaining events that are not capitalized on. Flutter on, little chrysalis’ and butterflies.
On a sunlit, 80-plus degree Saturday morning in Pacific Grove, several hundred kids dressed up as insects, sea creatures, farmers, artists, pioneers, clowns and healthy vegetables for the 75th annual Butterfly Parade and Bazaar.
A few parents, grandparents, babies and dogs dressed for the occasion, too.
The popular, don’t-you-wish-you-lived-here event is a rite of passage for Pacific Grove grade-schoolers. As they move from kindergarten to fifth grade, they get promoted from caterpillars to monarch butterflies, lady bugs, bumble bees, jellyfish, otters, farmers, pioneers, gold miners and, finally, clowns.
They gather in their handmade costumes in front of Robert Down Elementary School to pose for the paparazzi, then convene with their classmates for a 1-square-block strut that starts and ends on Pine Avenue.
