Hey, public bathrooms are important to some people -- even some incoming students. "...any tips/comments/advice about UNM...." No where did that statement indicate we were going for THE MOST IMPORTANT Advice here. If that were the case I'd have d…

Having a main door being shut or not isn't as much of an issue as the sounds emanating from said restrooms. I know it's a natural body function and all...but it is right across the street form the Frontier. Are you catching my drift here yet? We're…

I've been told to avoid BARK. So, Sophie beat me by suggesting pecan shells. Hey what do you know, something like this has already been covered.

-- yeah, I better keep my mouth shut about the numerous problems with the new school, but I will say it's a vast improvement to the old building(s). But the bathrooms there were at least private -- oops!

S. San Mateo Survey Results -- 11.2008 (part I)

Lesson learned for the day: Never Preview a post, click link to view uploaded file, and then Close Window. Check!

Finally, here are the results from the survey regarding South San Mateo Blvd and the immediate surrounding area concerning the blighted conditions. For those who have been waiting on the survey results, I want to again apologize and thank you for your patience. I also want to thank the good folks here at Dukecityfix for featuring my original post found h… Continue

87106 & 87108 San Mateo SE + Blight

SAN MATEO BLVD. SE & BLIGHT
Why is San Mateo Blvd. SE blighted? Why have some of the lots remained vacant for so long? And just Why hasn't anybody really developed this strip of land between Zuni Rd. and Gibson Ave.? I don't know.

But I'm trying to… Continue

How in the world can "we the people" buy back our government?

At 1:36pm on August 11, 2009, Grumpy said…: Another Mike - Disclosure: I'm not a patent lawyer but I do work for one. I give only my amateur opinions and these are my personal observations (which are not necessarily my firm's official line). It's hard to give a one size fits all scenario but following is my one of my takes on the situation.

Obtaining a utility patent (the most common kind) is a long (as in possibly 3-6 years), involved, and very expensive process (with no guarantee of being granted a patent when it's all said and done). Once you have obtained a patent it technically does not prevent someone else from copying your invention. What it does do is give you the right to sue someone that copies your idea. Which is even more expensive than obtaining the patent in the first place.

Some people are of the opinion that if you have a good idea whose time is ripe, rather than wasting time and money protecting the idea it's better to make the product and sell as many as you can before someone copies it.

There are several problems with the kind of outfits you linked to, but this post has already gone on long enough. If you want to know more, just ask.

At 3:05pm on August 5, 2009, Enrique said…: Accordion and thanks!

Good comments - there is always room for improvement. Given that last year there were 10 people BBQing in the rain, I think we had 100% improvement.

At 2:20pm on August 5, 2009, Enrique said…: I think last night went well. What do you think?

At 7:36am on May 20, 2009, Enrique said…: The hearing went OK. We'll have 15 days to wait for the hearing officer's decision.

At 5:25pm on May 12, 2009, Teri Farley said…: Hi Mike,

We are always interested in hearing what people want to see presentations on. Currently we don't have anything like that in the queue. I can bring up your request in the meeting tonight. Thanks!

Do you have any idea when the next meeting might happen? I ran across something yesterday and it looks like Gardenburger is giving out grants of up to $10,000 for community gardens, but we'd have to apply by May 15th. I would be happy to get the process started, but I'm not really sure who at EPC I should contact about it.
