Was that what i heard in the middle of the night on Wednesday? I thought i was dreaming. It sounded…Read More like some sort of loudspeaker.

Gee...are you SURE that alarm IS coming from Portola Middle School? Um...I suppose that you ARE…Read More sure! Yes...it IS turbo-annoying but I had assumed that it was some stupid car alarm.

A neighbor of mine on Colusa tried to give him food when he was on Colusa, but he refused, so I…Read More never tried. Dorothy, is that the shelter near the Berkeley Historical Society/Veteran's Building? Perhaps he would need a ride to it. Perhaps he's concerned about leaving his things there if he can't be there during the day. I'm afraid I don't know enough about it.

I did mention that I'm donating 10% of my royalties for "Midnight" to the EC's Open Space…Read More fund, didn't I?
I'm a Down-home Ten Percenter.

Lucy, I like the idea in principal, but in reality I think it would just give ECPD more work to do.…Read More "People hanging out" doesn't necessarily translate to a friendly,fun-filled, folksy kind of environment. It *can* mean quite the reverse.
"Midnight On the Ohlone" sounds like a new recording. Something like "I left my little babeeeeee, down by the tracks....and now I want her back....she's a needle in the haaaaaaay staaaaack...'
Arhoolie awaits.

What a great idea for pocket parks!!! I am all for them. Instead of spening a big amount on one…Read More (which we don't have space anyway), I would like to see many mini parks of $20,000 along the Bart tracks. With more visibility and people hanging out, it would make Bart paths safer too, especially the one around fairmont park. Really mini pocket parks just needs some play structures, benches and tables there.

Part Two.....
If you are fortunate to own a TV and watch the flood of video of robberies at…Read More convenience stores you can easily see that the cameras did nothing to prevent the crimes. The Tsarnaev brothers went to an ATM, all of which have cameras and made no attempt to cover their identity. I’m just saying that if indeed one wants to stem crime one needs to think it through instead of jumping to a wild-west position. art

Part One
And of course with all the cameras at the Safeway, it has done so much to stop all the…Read More ongoing crime there......So what is the discussion about here? Preventing street crime, or politically/religiously motivated terrorist crime? The article is a classic "Let's titillate with a banner about Islamic extremist jihad bombers, but the body will be about thug crime." These are two completely different issues and as such the author ought to go back and rethink this. It’s an irresponsible article. El Cerrito certainly has a thug crime problem that includes burglary and car theft break-ins. El Cerrito is not on ANYBODY's political map. Most native born Bay Area reisdents can’t find it on a map let alone a lunatic bent on making a martyr’s statement, Islamic , Christian or otherwise. If you look at the other crime headlines in the patch page you will see that were robberies also on the BART path, Sketchers, and Denny’s all of which are heavily “surveilled”. The Tsarnaev brothers are young enough to completely know that everyone and their grandmother has a picture phone, and cameras are everywhere in Boston, and YET they did what they did. SO… to “blanket statement” that all this camera surveillance has stopped the “perps” is simple thinking at best. It is helpful in solving crimes AFTER the fact.

That was one crime that caused then-Chief Kirkland to push for the new law. Another question would…Read More be: how many crimes have been prevented because certain businesses are required to have video recording? Perps know they're on camera in EC.
