And it was his adorable photo in a “featured foster pet” ad in The Pine Cone that caused his family to adopt him. But cute isn’t a breed. And the family can’t quite confirm what kind of dog he is. AFRP said perhaps he is a German shepherd-corgi mix. His black-and-tan coat and his prominent ears, plus his short little corgi-like legs suggest they might be right. Yet, a passerby in the dog’s Mission Fields neighborhood felt sure he is a Swedish vallhund. “I looked up Swedish vallhund, and I could see what she meant,” his person said. “But his tail is wrong. It doesn’t have the right curve. I actually think you could get this look from a German shepherd and a corgi.”

Then, he hopped down from the bench, and they saw the corgi legs and paws hit the ground. No matter what he is, they wanted him. They named him Morley since their son was playing baseball in Morley, Australia. Besides, they like the way it sounds. The man of the house is a dog person, and his wife is a cat person, who has fostered close to 40 kittens during the nine years they’ve had Morley. sport coats, suits and pants “Morley mostly ignores the kittens,” his person said, “but when they come up to sniff him, he’ll lick their faces, causing them to tumble over.” Morley likes to go to the beach, and runs as fast as his little legs will carry him, along the shore. But, he seems to prefer the park, where plenty of people find him cute and take time to let him know.

The Local Water Project, seven years in the making, will pump about 125 acre-feet of non-potable water per year to irrigate the Pacific Grove Golf Links and El Carmelo Cemetery, and provide water for toilets for two public restrooms at Crespi Pond. The city currently uses drinking water at those facilities. Public works director Daniel Gho told The Pine Cone Monday that the $7.7 million project, which will free up water for other uses in the city, such as existing lots of record, could be up and running by Nov. 10. “All the testing has passed, so now we are waiting for the final permit from the division of drinking water to be able to

The operation, which he said is “producing very clean water,” includes a new satellite water treatment plant — located at the site of the old Point Pinos wastewater treatment Christopher Boyns plant off of Ocean View Boulevard — to recycle a portion of Pacific Grove’s wastewater. The project included about 2,800 Classic Wines of California feet of pipeline to covey treated water from the treatment [email protected] plant to the nearby golf links and cemetery’s irrigation systems. In October, the city got final approval from the State Water Resources Control Board for a low-interest loan for the facility. Pacific Grove has an arrangement with CourseCo, the private golf links operator, to sell it water to irrigate the greens. “The city will produce the water and sell it to CourseCo,” Gho said. Iwillmakehomeaandhospitalvisits CourseCo, which began managing the golf links three years ago after agreeing to a 10-year term, with two five-year options, will pay the city more than $400,000 per year for 2511 Garden Rd., Suuite A230 Monterey irrigation water.

By KELLY NIX

LIKE SHORT-TERM rentals, the Pacific Grove City Council is about to take on another topic that elicits strong opinions: leaf blowers. Those noisy but useful devices are so contentious that they led a Pacific Grove woman a few years ago to slap a gar- dener in the face and unleash a profanity-laced tirade against several of her neighbors. In hopes of settling the debate over leaf blowers, staff with the city recommended the council take up the matter in a future meeting, and on Wednesday night, council members agreed to do so. “Leaf blowers continue to be a source of code enforcement complaints, and staff is aware that code revisions are needed to provide provisions that are enforceable and impactful,” according to a staff report by Milas Smith, the city’s environmental programs manager. The city’s current ordinance includes a prohibition on leaf blowers that are “capable of producing continuous airborne sound that exceeds 62 decibels measured at 50 feet in any direction.” The problem is, the city’s police officers haven’t been trained on how to use decibel meters, so when they get a call about noise complaints involving leaf blowers, it’s difficult to determine if a violation has occurred. The city also acknowledges that the ordinance doesn’t work as it was intended. “Over time, staff has been unable to enforce compliance due to lack of proper sound measuring equipment, staff resource response, and reports being generated after the work has been completed,” the staff report said. Though leaf blowers’ effect on the environment would seem to be minuscule compared to the pollution from any number of vehicles that drive through Pacific Grove every day, the city recommended the council also consider environmental issues related to the devices, such air and water pollution. The city staff report requested that the council offer direction on the issue so it can be brought back to the council for discussion in a future meeting.

By the late 1950s and 1960s his duties involved numerous construction, design and engineering 831-372-3656 projects such as: railroad line changes, removal and enlarging of tunnels, replacing wood snow sheds with ones made of precast concrete, replacing overhead bridges www.gggregdowsdojo.com with open deck bridges, and constructing the centralized traffic control (CTC) System in Northern California and Oregon. Greg Dow’s Ultimate Fitness Center During this time, he developed a love of skiing and opened a ski shop in the basement 1169 Forest AAvvenue - Pacific Grove, CA of his home.

YOU DON’T hear the term “affirmative action” very much anymore. In the old days, the idea of giving minorities preferences in housing, jobs and educa- tion was seen as a way to remedy past discrimination. But with official discrimination having been illegal in all parts of the country for almost 50 years, it no longer seems possible to explain the need for racial preferences as a “remedy.” Instead, we now have a nationwide obsession with diversity, so much so that nearly every government agency, profession and school — not to mention sports team, private club, orchestra and theater company — feels obligated to have a diverse group of employees, members or players. In the 2003 decision, Grutter vs. Bollinger, the U.S. Supreme Court upheld racial preferences in the University of Michigan’s law school admissions process, explaining the need for diversity with these words: “The university’s admissions policy promotes cross-racial understanding, helps to break down racial stereotypes, and enables students to better understand persons of different races.” These benefits were “laudable,” the court said, because “classroom discussion is livelier, more spirited, and simply more enlightening and interesting” when the students have “the greatest possible variety of backgrounds.” Which is all very well. We don’t disagree with a single word. But backgrounds of what? In numerous parts of the world, homosexuality is not only illegal, it’s punishable with life in prison or death. Surely, even a considerable number of people

who live in the United States agree. Does the University of Michigan consider “He likes to hear the pitter patter of little feet.” it important to admit students who subscribe to the belief that homosexuality is not only a sin, but a grave crime? to acquire the system.

One exhibit, “Natural Selection,” showcases the talents of painters Pamela Carroll and Jeffrey Becom. Carroll presents a display of her intricately detailed and realistic still life oil paintings. Her subject matter includes vintage and antique items. “People wonder if I work from photos, but no, I don’t use them,” Carroll explained. “I always paint from life and make my own compositions.” Becom’s work is inspired by his love of nature and color. “My oil and wax paintings continue to evolve as I investigate abstraction and experiment with color interactions, while still staying faithful to my favored subjects — the local land and sea,” Becom said.
