Curlew Kai Folk - there has been a CONFIRMED cougar deer-kill on the private island just west of us. (South end of Lake across marsh from Dock Rd.) It happened in the wee hours of the morning. We had thought we had seen tracks but the kill confirms there is a BIG cat in our midst. Please don't feed the deer. It makes them easy prey and this cat might end up in your backyard. Please share with neighbors!!! Thanks.

 

 I have absolutely no idea of what I took but I got up at shortly after 3 in the morning on August 16, 2008 to do it. Could it possibly be the INSP hooked to a shuttle? I was using a Fujifilm Pro DSLR/Nikon with full 300 zoom. I am open to suggestions from anyone else who was up that morning. changed date to 16th

Taken from my old apartment...same complex before Guillain Barre. I looked out my bedroom window, through a screen which gave a nice effect Leslie Foster. In my film days they made filters to do this same effect. And sunflower? Not sure I think it was a self start as birds ate on the wires overhead.

Walking her dog, Cassandra Markley passes through the STA Plaza when she comes across two tables, both with fliers advertising data collection. When she approaches, a woman sitting at one of the tables says the city is "trying to get an idea of who is homeless and what sort of resources they need." After hearing that, Markley sits down and answers a basic questionnaire.

The data collection is for "Point in Time" a count of the homeless population in a number of cities across the country.
