I'm tempted to suggest that the middle of town might be the best place for a junkyard. Seeing what happened to the stuff we bought years ago, then discarded, might make us more thoughtful about what...

funny, I kinda like junkyards - gives us the rural, hillbilly look. I find too much flavor of a suburban paradise makes an area uninviting; signs of people's activities are interesting. I actually...

Small Town Sebastopol settles with CVS

SEBASTOPOL, CA, July 1, 2014 – Helen Shane, for the Committee for Small Town Sebastopol announced today that it has settled its CEQA suit against CVS....

How about a small parking area and the rest grass, park, trees.

What happened, the thread is gone?

Efren Carrillo reached out and requested a conversation. We spoke and came to an understanding. He explained himself and his position convincingly. We've...

The person that I favor to continue Michael Kyes' legacy is Una Glass, if she might be willing. When I moved to Sebastopol in 1992 she was active at that time and has continued her activity with...

Jeeze, Geoff, I know beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but I would never call Efren Carrillo "a handsome stud." IMO, he's not even attractive. He would not be welcome at my front door, let...

At first I was shocked, too, but I hate to say it, but I can see it being the correct answer to the legal question.

I believe Efren was telling the truth when he said he was going over to Jane...

Look, I'm not sure if I agree with you or not. I'm still on the fence. But your posts are also a little too much of "Listen to ME! I have a PhD and my partner went to Harvard!" I don't care. ...

Maybe we shouldn't "pre-judge" the fact that the cop fired 7 bullets into Andy Lopez. However, this is not "circumstantial evidence" as in Carillo's case. These bullets are actual facts that show...

While your point is worthy, Nancy, (though I think misplaced regarding Sara), your venom is not welcome.

There's lots going on the CVS issue. It's a big chain right at the center of Sebastopol,...

Freedom of speech doesn't apply here. In fact I wouldn't deny that WaccoBB is yet more restrictive then the PD. People can be quite rude and disrespectful there, more so than I will tolerate here.

It's up to us of course, but our history of coexisting with other species is-as you all know-sickening. So very sadly it's a pipe dream to believe that all non-human animals , with the possible...

Can't we all just get along?
That is everyone's hope, of course. But it's comforting to know that if things go awry that F&G can come and move the bear(s), rather than kill them.

There are at least two bears currently in West County. Two juvenile-sized bears were spotted together, crossing Dutch Bill Creek along Bohemian Hwy, on Monday evening 6/10. My opinion is that these...

Having read all of these bear-related posts, and the reports of sightings from Occidental Ridge to Willow Creek to Camp Meeker to Monte Rio, and knowing someone who spotted two juvenile-sized bears...

Few black bears learn to kill livestock, but the behavior, once...

If it happened, it WAS a crime and I am amazed if Fish & Wildlife--who I respect greatly- never followed up and that the Press Dem ignored it. If it is just rural legend, then let's not slander...

It's been a while since I did any work in connection with a case like this, but I'll put in my 2 cents. When the defendant has a mental illness, there are a number of events that can take place.
