"While the Coastal Steelhead is on a very long arch of decline- one that started with the arrival of the current interglacial cycle thousands of years ago, it may still be a useful club for control, thanks to the poorly written Endangered Species Act.
Like the California Condor, or the Sabertooth Cat, these species had their time, but the perpetually shifting , long term climate picks different winners and losers.
For now , ‘environmentalist’ lawyers can profit from fighting for them and the political elites can use them to take cover and continue to regulate and control the community.
Putting fish over people with a resource like Lopez lake is an absurdity. If Arroyo jumps in with State water , I wonder if the same enviro groups will petition to remove the dam all together.
Only time will tell."

"This is who Ty Lewis hangs around with, our former (hot tub) Paso Robles Police Patrolman, coward Police Chief, and bumbling, manipulating, incompetent City Manager. What other thugs does he pal around with?"

"The Halls are the weak link to the Paso/Fulks crowd, and as happens with weak links, the relationships described in this reporting will be the undoing of the cabal. Watch this space, and thank you for your attention to this matter."

"Ernest Hall then attempted to headbutt the Fresno man, but only Ernest Hall’s cap hit the man.
So then there was no headbutt. No assault. Nothing burger.
posted claims of racism against the couple’s business
Well when you have the business owner on camera saying the N-Word, it seems the evidence shows more than a claim.
In the days that followed, Grace Hall left several messages on the couple’s phone threatening to finish what they had started, the Fresno woman said.
Sounds like they have a recording. Interesting to hear if it's actually who they say it is -- after all, the entire Internet started bombing their business page/phone/etc once that video went viral."

"The 2014 Interview where Mccaine and Graham say they want to invade Russia and take out Putin while speaking to Ukrainian soldiers is titled: "Lindsey Graham and the Ghost of John McCain Speak to Ukrainian Troops" - So, Russia was just basically stopping a genocide of Russian Speakers in the Donbass which were being shelled by the Banderite government, as well as defending itself against NATO expansion that went against the Minsk Accords.. They were being cornered, and defended themselves accordingly."

"Ukraine has been known as the most corrupt country in Europe for a very long time, and we're sending them so much in our taxdollars and military support? Which side were the Banderites on in WW2? I'll let you guys look that up, and where the term "Slava Ukraini" came from- Bandera (a Uki Nazi supporter).. John McCain and Lindsay Graham were in Ukraine talking about "going on the offensive" in 2016 with military support.. Russia lost more people in WW2 than any other country."

"Your points are well stated . I guess I’m just a little tired… tired of hearing about the “Russkies” for the past 50 plus years. Opinions and information vary , and the ‘Truth is out there somewhere’. Probably in the middle…
In the meantime, we are the ones who roll around the world practicing ‘Containment’.
I’ve seen enough of it personally- without having to rely on second or third hand reporting to come to my conclusions.
But we all see things differently. And I respect that too."

"PG&E is dangerous to all of us Californians:
PG&E equipment is responsible for sparking numerous destructive wildfires in California, primarily due to tree contact, equipment failure, or inadequate maintenance. Between 2014 and 2017 alone, PG&E was attributed with starting over 1,500 fires, a significantly higher rate than other utilities in the state.
Major incidents include:
The Camp Fire (2018): The deadliest and most destructive wildfire in California history, killing 85 people and destroying over 18,800 structures. PG&E pleaded guilty to 85 counts of involuntary manslaughter for this fire, which was caused by a worn metal hook on a transmission tower.
The Dixie Fire (2021): The largest single-source wildfire in California history, burning over 963,000 acres and destroying more than 1,300 structures. Cal Fire determined it was sparked by a tree falling on PG&E power lines; the company agreed to a $45 million penalty in 2024.
The Zogg Fire (2020): Caused by a grey pine tree that had been marked for removal after the 2018 Carr Fire but was never cleared. It burned over 56,300 acres, destroyed 204 structures, and killed four people.
The Kincade Fire (2019): Caused by a broken jumper cable that failed due to wear and wind fatigue. It burned over 77,700 acres and destroyed 374 structures.
The Butte Fire (2015): Caused by a tree contacting a power line. It burned over 70,800 acres, destroyed nearly 1,000 structures, and killed two people.
Other notable fires attributed to PG&E include the 2017 North Bay Fires (including the Tubbs Fire), the Cascade Fire (2017), and the 1994 Trauner Fire. In 2019, PG&E filed for bankruptcy and established a $13.5 billion settlement for victims of the Camp Fire and other major blazes."

"Good grief! It was caused by underground boring hitting a water main. It has nothing to do with the current condition of the road, which is slated to get its renovation after school lets out. The boring was part of the work to get utilities undergrounded before active construction starts, and is just unfortunate that it caused this situation."

"Another example of our neglected infustructure road construction and overall planning. This intersection is a major traffic intersection. I hope we get it repaired and fast unlike most of our road projects in this City that often take forever to get completed! But on the bright side we have great pickleball courts"
