So that you will know what kind of neighbors the Jenkins are--who are leading the charge against the harmless KOWS antenna--following is an email from one of their neighbors. It goes back 27 years...

Just hope the A-holes in Congress don't block every nomination Obama makes for his replacement.

He was not only homophobic, he was a woman hater. I celebrated as soon as I heard the news. We don't need people in control who serve to make our lives worse. Name calling is not the issue. His...

Scalia Dead!

It has been two neys cycles since the PD reported on racial taunting among Analy High students and there has been nothing here on WACCO. I mean we have a plea for more money for the hospital,...

after careful consideration, I've decided that this argument is convenient bullshit for the 1%. It's fatally flawed in the same way that analogies about the national deficit vs. personal debt are...

I totally agree with you. I am a single man working every day as a psychotherapist. I am stuck in senior housing. Every month I see my dream of gardening and having a sweat lodge on my own place...

Here's the poster that Nick put together.

I've also attached it as a printable PDF, a Word Doc and a Pages doc.

Please print it out and distribute widely, including street poles, bulletin...

I was walking after dark in that area the day after the rape occurred and met a caring and active citizen on the sidewalk who was informing walkers of what had happened. I was very grateful to her...

Maybe you can find the individuals or families, yourself, to donate the Rv's, instead of going to organizations.. ?
I know its more difficult and ridiculous, but, maybe it will be fun for you!

We, the residents of this county, need to push for temporary housing for our disaster victims, where people can be treated with dignity and given the chance to recover ... by "disaster" I mean...

Good luck finding ANY of them willing to put humanity before profits.

I totally agree.Stop the Greed. People before money or we will all be wiped out. Is Sonoma county totally Godless?? I hope not. Wine before water with more planted vineyards than vegetables.What are...

I have been searching for three months for a garage ,warehouse or barn for rent ,I have seen and been on properties with dozens ,any road you go down you see them ,chicken coops barns garages, all...

The Valley fire is the 5th devastating fire in Lake County this summer. People need housing and so much more. This is the time for the people of Sonoma County who have rental opportunities to...

All this is really good, and this description especially rocks:

Love it!

After trying to do this on my own.... I finally called the Graton Labor Center for some help,
They said they didnt have anybody that knew how to build a pond so I told them I didnt care.
Just send...

Spot on! Seeking clarity is a beautiful thing. It makes compassion-based solutions possible.

One of my mediation mentors is William Ury, co-author of the legendary negotiation tome Getting to...

Bravo and thank you Linda! While in all honesty I too would not be happy to see, nor would I encourage, big box/formula stores to be moving into any neighborhood, I wholeheartedly agree with your...

I again state what to me is obvious. Regardless whether the pricing is a mistake or not, it still amazes me that so many people support an overpriced store whose CEO is against things like affordable...

My problems with this proposal are how much bureaucratic dancing there needs to be to make it effective (in the eyes of its authors) and its fundamental tenant, which is to ban things that are...

Tom, I think you (and some others in the discussion) are confusing two separate issues. On the one hand, we have honest mistakes, which everyone makes. Of course every store will have some accidental...

Gentlemen,
It is entirely within the realm of reasonable possibility that this is a bona-fide scam implemented by one or two people -- BY RIGGING THE COMPUTERS used to code, identify, and label the...

Yes?


Almost? If it's true that they're purposely overpricing to rip people off, that would fit the definition of conspiracy. You do understand that there is such a thing as a conspiracy, don't...

Wine Empire replaces Redwood Empire

Sonoma County has been known as part of the natural Redwood Empire. Wine industry lobbyists re-branded it as the commercial...

I don't have much money, but I would contribute all that I can for recalling Carrillo. When women are not protected by the legal system, it's time to step up to the plate, and throw away rotting...

Linda, I didn't know it was you because the tone of yr comment is so unlike you. This woman is one of the most wonderful, generous, tolerant, loving women I know.

I still feel the same way that...

In the old world they had coopers that traveled in wagons and fixed peoples pots and things, perhaps Sebastopol could have a strange makers cart that would do the same and also collect canned goods...

This is sad to hear. I will make a point of stopping by Community Market. Thanks for pointing out the bin location. I have been there once and did not notice it. And yes we are very very blessed here...

This brought tears .... I'm going thru my pantry right now, and will buy some stuff if I can't find anything worth donating. OMG ... I feel a combination of shame, and deep, deep sadness ......

So for all of us on this board who live/shop in Sebastopol who care about where our grocery dollars go, it looks like we have options in "The Golden Triangle" - family-owned Andy's to the...

Many people who "complain" about organic food being expensive may be on an extremely low food budget. For many elders on social security of $800-$1000, this amount has to include rent, non-foods...

Another awesome thing at the new community Market in Sebastopol is the addition of a wine section. This is a new feature with the Sebastopol store, and the Santa Rosa store where I mostly shop...

Sorry, that was a sarcastic remark, not sincere at all, and very unlike me! But I'm glad to see people speaking up about WF, even though they still shop there. Habits are are to...

My experience with Community Market's new shop in The Barlow has been very positive. While I've liked their Santa Rosa store for the most part (it reminded me of the co-op stores I'd been a member...

Like many in our community, I want to support the local non-profit Community Market that opened in the Barlow, for many reasons. Local ownership, local produce, ALL organic, friendly service, etc.

Water today! Water tomorrow! Water forever!

I'm reminded of a conversation I had back in the late 70s, at a Rainbow Gathering in Oregon at which it rained day after day. I was huddled in a tent...

Just watched a story on KTVU tonight about how the draught is impacting Sonoma County vineyards, how the ground is so dry, when it should be deep, wet muck, and how low the Russian River is. Of...

Community Market is NOT owned by the workers. Yes, there is a board of directors made up of employees. If the company were to close today, any profit would go to charities, not to workers.

Really, so you shop at Walmart instead of CVS? And that somehow is suppose to be better or make sense? While we're on the subject of consistency, political correctness and corporate monster...

Now that I've been to the market 3 times, I can get there with no problem. I am very happy to have Community Market so close to where I live, I can bike it or stop by in my car easily. I'm looking...

I've been to the new Community Market twice. Just like when Community Market moved from Morgan St. to Mendocino, it took me a while to like the new store. The new store is very beautiful. I find...

I stopped today for some milk & yogurt, my first visit to your store. I've been looking forward to it. Beautiful store, easy parking! I had a couple of samples of pesto pizza which was great. I...

I would like to echo all that Jonathan expressed. Plus re-emphasize my interest in healthful hot foods to go or eat in. For me that means organic (or equivalent or better), gluten & dairy-free,...

Thanks for asking, Community Market :)
I visited during the Barlow opening and got some beverages. Some thoughts:

It is a beautiful market! Great design and open space and friendly staff.
