Elevated to celebrity status.
On Friday, he rushed in and out of the courthouse, his lawyer at his side.
Elder’s Bakersfield attorney Michael Lukehart told the judge he will ask the court to ban the press from using “electronic media — filming, recording or photographing” at the proceedings, noting that TV crews were filming as he spoke.
Judge Russell Scott said he had already granted permission for cameras to roll at the arraignment.
No, they are not losing 2nd amendment rights. Just disintegrating. The articles quotes a student saying the ocean floor resembles a graveyard. Ever see a graveyard with random limbs laying about? Scary thought.
Sarah Wilson, a student in the program, says, “It just looks lie a graveyard out there, just starfish arms scattered everywhere. Some are just one armed sea stars, two, three, some are doing a little better with four arms, but still it’s not what it should be.”
The central coast has thousands of different species of starfish lining their shorelines, but now Sarah says things are changing, “It looks like their tissues are degrading, so they are disintegrating away, and their arms are getting shorter, and shorter, and eventually falling off.”
P.G. has lost its fire department, police department, Mvsevm, the land under the fish prison and now is throwing out the golf course, cemetery and public works department.
What about contracting out the City Manager position?
City Manager Thomas Frutchey will ask the City Council on Wednesday to seek proposals for six different jobs, including managing the Pacific Grove Golf Links.
In a council report, Frutchey says that while the city is responsible for providing the services, “it does not follow that the city itself is always best able to provide those services.”
Contracting out the services would likely lay off city workers, but the city is encouraging employee groups to prepare their own proposals, the report says.
Denies being under the influence.
A week after the collision, Elder’s attorney Paul Puri issued a statement Elder flatly denied he was drunk at the time. The statement said Elder had comforted the injured Gattas and had taken “all precautions, care and concern under the circumstances.”
Messages touting two after-parties following that weekend’s Pebble Beach Food & Wine festival, including photos of the crowds in attendance, were posted from a Twitter account pertaining to Elder construction business several days before the collision.
The festival ended early Sunday afternoon, several hours before the fatal crash.
Through his attorney, Elder has said he was not coming from the festival when the crash occurred.
Was the pond dry as it is today? (11/9)
Pacific Grove police have identified Richard Haffner as the man killed Sunday at Pacific Grove Municipal Golf Course after they found him engulfed in flames. Police would not release any more details as of Monday afternoon.
Police are investigating the death of a man they found engulfed in flames Sunday morning at the Pacific Grove Municipal Golf Course.
Employees in the golf course’s restaurant and pro shop saw the man in flames running in the area of the stone restroom near Crespi Pond and the tees of the 17th hole on Ocean View Boulevard about 7:20 a.m.
Numerous calls to Pacific Grove police and the Monterey Fire Department reported a man and building on fire. Police arrived first and found the man and a fence outside the bathroom on fire. An officer immediately extinguished the flames but the man was pronounced dead at the scene.
A Pacific Grove resident lost $1,000 in what the city’s Police Department is calling the “IRS Investigations Scam.”
Scammers identifying themselves as Internal Revenue Service investigators call their victims with the threat of a looming arrest warrant because of a tax deficiency.
How can Pacific Grove residents be so gullible?

oh..
As businesses try to do anything to get people to spend money in town. Or timing parked cars is not the number one objective of AutoChalk, more like some kind of tracking system to read and log every license plate it sees.
The City of Pacific Grove is responding to numerous complaints that 90 minute parking downtown isn’t enough time to enjoy some lunch, browse the shops, or go to the beach without getting a $35 ticket.
A new pilot program will change the downtown’s 90 minute parking to 2 hour parking from Nov. 7-Jan. 15.
Shoot, I wanna know how to get an all-day parking space like the Victorian Corner workers get.
Aint there enough tax dollars going toward things that are not basic education? Parking lots, football stadiums, district offices and now give tablet computers to every student?
This is just another example of the kind of thinking that leads to an appalling waste of tax dollars like spending $6.8 million on a refurbished sports stadium. And now they want to buy iPads for every student? PGUSD does not need new iPads for every student. Oh, and by the way, what percent of students in the school district don’t already have iPads? Does the school district even know? Does it care?
The fact that this is how they are thinking of spending Measure G money demonstrates that they cannot be trusted to use your tax dollars wisely. It should be an easy call for every voter to reject Measure G.
Residents on the Monterey side of David Avenue support it . .
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.
