Zoning changes aim to ease housing crunch but stir fears too by Jocelyn Dong hen Whitclem Drive resi- dent Don Marquardt looks W into his crystal ball, he sees — much to his consternation — a crowded future. The reason for his vision? The city could adopt a regulation in March to allow nearly 80 percent of Palo Alto’s single-family properties to potentially build second dwellings or granny units in their back yards. More units will bring more neighbors, traffic and noise, some opponents feel. “It would be a zoo,” said Marquardt, who lives on a corner lot. “There’s no way they could put a granny unit in any of these lots. Where are the cars going to park?” Whitclem has rental homes now, Nicholas Wright and, he contended, “every (rental) house has eight cars in front of them.” Currently, about 20 percent of single-family property owners in Palo Alto have the option to add on.

  • Cast Bios KATHERINE HEIGL
    Cast Bios KATHERINE HEIGL (Marty Claridge) - Ms. Heigl stars Dr. Isobel “Izzie” Stevens, the underwear model turned surgical resident in the ABC hit drama, “Grey’s Anatomy.” She began her career as a child model at the age of nine. Her big-screen debut came in the film "That Night" in 1992, followed by a role in Steven Soderbergh's poignant drama "King of the Hill" in 1993. The following year she starred opposite Gerard Depardieu in "My Father the Hero." Other feature credits include “Side Effects,” “The Ringer,” and the soon to be released “Knocked Up.” In 1999 Heigl was cast as the haughty yet vulnerable Isabel Evans in the TV series "Roswell." Her other TV credits include the ABC telefilm "Romy and Michele: Behind the Velvet Rope," a prequel to the hit feature film "Romy and Michele's High School Reunion." Heigl has often used her celebrity to promote the importance of organ donation, a cause she feels very strongly about. # # # DALE MIDKIFF (Clark Davis) – Dale Midkiff started acting off-Broadway before landing a starring role in the film "Streetwalkin'." Among his credits are guest-starring roles on “Without A Trace,” “CSI,” the starring roles of Elvis Presley in the made-for-TV biopic "Elvis and Me" and “A Cry for Help: The Tracey Thurman Story.” His other credits include "Torn Apart," "Video Voyeur: The Susan Wilson Story," "Another Woman's Husband" and the Hallmark Channel Original movies “Back to You & Me,” “Love’s Enduring Promise” and “Love Comes Softly,” for which he received the Grace Award for TV at the 12th Annual MovieGuide Awards.

    — OLIVER PEEBLES JENKINS Bantam, Ohio. Palo Alto, California. November 3, 1850. January 9, 1935. Perhaps few of us recall Dr. Jenkins—what a splendid teacher he was! An active mind—original, enthusiastic, and inspirational and a fund of humor were out- standing characteristics. Who could not profit from his instruction? To those of us who were much with J him he was a delightful companion and a lovable friend, in addition to his being a great naturalist. He was born at Bantam, Ohio, November 3, 1850, and died at Stanford University January 9, 1935 in his eighty-fifth year. He was buried at Palo Alto, California. He married Elizabeth R. Hester, formerly of Brookville, Indiana, where the writer and his wife, Mary Reynolds, attended Brookville College with her. His widow and two sons survive. He graduated from Moores OLIVER PEEBLES JENKINS Hill (now Evansville) College in 1869 and, after serving as teacher, high school principal, and superintendent in the public schools of Indiana, Wisconsin, and California, he returned, in 1876, to Moores Hill College as professor, where he remained for twelve years. That institution con- ferred upon him advanced and honorary degrees; he was also honored with a degree from Indiana University. He became a member of the faculty of the Indiana State Normal School, at Terre Haute in 1883, and left there to become Professor of Biology at DePauw University in 1886. He remained at DePauw until 1891, when he became a member of the faculty of Leland Stanford Jr. University at the time of its founding. He remained in this position until he retired as Professor Emeritus of Physiology in 1916.

    Run Screening Screening Screening Title Year Premiere? Director Time Icons Synopisis: 3-line Venue Date Time The Amateurs 2005 Michael Traegers 97 Mins. Michael Traeger's directorial debut The Amateurs is a hillarious, sexy comedy about this small Cable Car August 10th 5:00 PM town's attempt to make what becomes the world's most innocent adult film. The quest begins innocently enough with Andy (Jeff Bridges) seeing that sex is everywhere; in the paper, all over town, everywhere. It's a multi-billion dollar industry, and better yet, one of its more popular forms is the amateur variety. And Andy and his friends are indeed amateurs, so better yet, one of its more popular forms is the amateur variety. And Andy and his friends are indeed amateurs, so why shouldn't they be able to strike it rich in this booming industry? The Amateurs is a sweetly comic film that plays with the conventions of filmmaking and the movie business all while having fun with its good-hearted characters. Land of the Blind 2006 Robert Edwards 101 Min. LAND OF THE BLIND is a satiric and timely political drama about terrorism, revolution, and the Cable Car August 10th 7:00 PM power of memory. In an unnamed place and time, an idealistic soldier named Joe (Ralph Fiennes) strikes up an illicit friendship with a political prisoner named Thorne (Donald Sutherland), who eventually recruits him into a bloody coup d'etat. But in the post-revolutionary world, what Thorne asks of Joe leads the two men into bitter conflict, spiraling downward into madness until Joe's co- conspirators conclude that they must erase him from history.

Abstract: This bachelor thesis aims to compare the novel The Cider House Rules, written by John Irving in 1985, and its film adaptation (Miramax, 1999). After a short introduction of the writer and his work, the thesis compares the most important differences between the story featured in the original and the adaptation. The main part of the thesis deals with changes made for individual characters in the context of limitations of film as medium. In chapter 5 the thesis aims to impartially refer to the controversial topic of abortions and how the question of abortions differs in the novel and in the film.

The Handbook is not intended as a source book on radio astronomy, but is concerned principally with those aspects of radio astronomy that are relevant to frequency coordination, that is, the management of radio spectrum usage in order to minimize interference between radiocommunication services. Radio astronomy does not involve the transmission of radiowaves in the frequency bands allocated for its operation, and cannot cause harmful interference to other services. On the other hand, the received cosmic signals are usually extremely weak, and transmissions of other services can interfere with such signals.
