I'll take a W.A.G. (wild azz guess), - inside Nieman-Marcus?

The wild guess knocks it for Triple Canopy. There are two decorative pedestals on the second floor of Neiman-Marcus with these whittled (shaved?) sticks. -- Lance Howland, editor, Walnut Creek Patch

Chem trails ... You tube..

The trails I saw at you tube, while bigger than vapor trails, were still very puny compared to theRead More banner cloud formations I saw this, banners stretching straight from East to West (or vice versa) from one horizon to the other. May guess is that they were over 500 feet wide, and I'm still inclined to think the straight-line winds that made the derecho in the East pushed backwards a straight banner of visible water vapor (ie, clouds). Compare the physics to the x-rays that are pushed backwards when matter is sucked into the spiral of a black hole, a new discovery this week.

Thanks, Jim. I appreciate it. Hi Julio, As we all know, Even the late movie guru, Roger Ebert'sRead More fans, sometimes, did not agree with his assessment. This is the beauty of a filmic conversation. There is really no right or wrong. It is highly subjective. Even Rotten Tomatoes sometimes do not agree with Top Critics from around the world.

Tonights meeting at 7 p.m. City Hall Agenda Item The following is copy/paste from Agenda availableRead More on City's Website. Attachment: STATEMENT OF ISSUE: The library café opened in September 2012 with a Rental Commencement Date of October 1, 2013. Since the very beginning of operations, the tenant has struggled to meet the lease obligations and most recently requested waived rent through September 2013. Staff has negotiated an amendment to the lease that addresses City concerns and supports the tenant’s viability for success, and recommends the new terms to the Council for approval. RECOMMENDED ACTION: Approve and authorize the Mayor to execute an amendment to the lease agreement with Café Pica Deli, Inc. to adjust the monthly rent from $1,250 to $400 per month for the first twenty-four (24) months of the Initial Term; modify the “Percentage of Sales” revenue sharing provision in the agreement, as well as add flexibility to the hours of operation.
