Editor’s note: When you’re driving, biking or walking around in downtown Ukiah do you often look over at a storefront and say to yourself “Gee, I didn’t know that was there.” Well, so do we. So we thought we’d start a kind of business census by photographing and identifying downtown businesses block by block, week to week, here on the Commerce Page. It's nothing fancy, just a quick look at what’s there. Of course it will take us some time to go through State, School and Main streets and then up and down Perkins, Gobbi and other streets. And that's just within the city limits. But we figure, like painting the Golden Gate Bridge, when we’re done, we’ll just have to start over. We hope you’ll enjoy discovering what’s out there.

I was reminded Kathy Borst of that one by professor Cass Sunstein’s current book, Boonville “The Second Bill of Rights: FDR’s Unfinished Revolution and Why We Need It More Than Ever” (Basic Voting machines invalidate Books). With the disorganized Democrats looking hard for a clear issue to present to voters during the midterm our votes elections and beyond, they might find a lifeline from FDR. To the Editor: In that State of the Union speech, Roosevelt said: Too many people don’t vote now. They “Essential to peace is a decent standard of living for all say their votes don’t matter. If this decision individual men and women and children in all nations. to re-certify voting machines that have Freedom from fear is eternally linked with freedom from proven flaws is allowed to stand, those want.” non-voters will be proven right.

DIRECTIONS: A. Using each "Chaos Grid" number with its letter one time, arrange the numbers with their letters for the "Order Grid" so each vertical column, horizontal row, and two diagonals each ADD to numbers inside thick lined cells. B. Some correct numbers with their letters have been put into the "Order Grid" to get you started. Also, above the "Order Grid" is a "Decoded Message" clue. C. After you have solved the "Order Grid" doing as direction "A" says, put the let- ters from horizontal rows, from left to right, under "Decoded Message" and make words to form the answer.
