Shoulda just asked a cop.

The phrase "Robbing Peter to pay Paul" comes to mind.

There is a similar situation at the intersection of Franklin Blvd and Broadway. Traffic light, but no left turn signal which means it's impossible to turn left (from Broadway onto Franklin) when there is any significant traffic, which is always. Broadway is well known for red light runners anyway and this junction is a calamity waiting to happen.

The first weekend is over. Four performances, each one better than the last. Eight to go, with one night already completely sold out. This is a great show, not to be missed.

It's a bit farther than I like to walk for lunch but I'll give it a try. It seems to be a tough market (for Indian food) - I've seen two restaurants come and go in the last four years around 10/K area. There is a vendor that sells at the Wednesday farmers market in Cesar Chavez (now sadly gone until spring) that seems to do a good trade. I think to get the lunch crowd, you need to do a cheap, fast takeout service alongside the usual buffet, similar to the 'Golden Dragon' Chinese restaurant. I will gladly eat curry 7 days a week for lunch but it has to stay competitively priced and convenient for the huge State/City worker clientelle.

Perhaps I was being a little flippant but I think the question was fair - Do they need two, full-time incomes or could they perhaps cut back on vacations or new cars or eating out and spend that time more profitably in the raising of their child. I have every sympathy if the couple are living paycheck to paycheck but parents should think about their child first, not their own comfort. As the parents of three children, we have seriously struggled at times to provide for our home (on one salary), but never regretted spending the valuable time working to help our children grow up. And before it is suggested otherwise, this is not a sexist viewpoint - I would be overjoyed to be able to swap with my spouse, and that may happen in the future. Now that the children are older, my spouse is considering a return to work. All I'm really saying is that if you have children, you should consider their needs ahead of your own. I don't think that is being narrow-minded.

Do you NEED to go back to work? Perhaps your child needs you more. Just a thought...perhaps a puppy would have been a better bet.

NOBODY should be allowed to play Mariachi music, (or Zydeco for that matter). Davis eh? I think I've heard of that place.

Perhaps 'K' should look at 'R' for tips Shady Lady, Magpie Cafe, Burgers and Brews, a couple of boutiques - all goes to make this little stretch of 'transportation corridor' a far more fun (and safe) place to 'hang out'. The lack of shouty religious nuts, Courtroom/Jail effluent and panhandlers is just a bonus. It may just be me, but using a multi-story car park two blocks away takes the shine off of dropping in for a 'quick half' at the Dive Bar. Might as well go to the Fox and Goose instead.

Moving the deckchairs on the Titanic is the phrase that comes to mind. It's not the lack of vehicular access that makes K st unexciting - it's the lack of any actual shops. And, again, what is the point of cars driving through a street without the ability to park anywhere? This then defeats the only other reason to visit K St - to get food or see a movie.

I think the name was actually 'Bas Ted'.

Another brilliant example of why community journalism will often fail. SacPress should institute some quality thresholds and take notice of the community voting 'thumbs down' that they provide. What are they for if not to help flag articles that are offensive, illiterate or (in the case of this contributor) dull and disjointed? This author's submissions are always rambling and incoherent and the subject matter is risible to say the least. It often seems to be a dump of whatever blog it is that he/they own and has had the very minimum of sub-editing. If the Sac Press is a Community Press then I think the Community should also have a say in what will and will not appear here. Discuss.

....Only if you consider Thomas 'painter of shite' Kincaid the next John Constable.

This is entirely crystal-clear to me. When he says "Yes, the k-8 students have been cleverly desired to draft chosen health for their solitude. But by whose timepiece? The Mayor of faction and me both believe your maturation, just like they advent in publishing houses, is when your majority of age has been established." means.... errr... just what it says.

Actually he's pretty banal. Appeals to the older NPR crowd, which is fine. I prefer Rolf "Can you tell what it is yet?" Harris personally.

This event just reminded me that India and James used to do ballet, from the age of three - see http://youtu.be/eEmtD52XoyQ and http://youtu.be/WbGcb4GUC_o respectively to see them in their prime. Sadly they had to give up for creative (and financial) reasons but I was wondering if it's worth giving them another shot, or if it's already too late? Billy Elliot was 10 or so though wasn't he?

Update Again! The Kickstarter Project to help with funding this production was successful! The production will be more gorgeous and fabulous because of it. In other news, the search for the elusive replacement Centaur continues.....Gentlemen please forward your resumes!

Update! Amy actor types (male, 18+) who want to be a part of this production can apply for the role of the Centaur, which has become vacant due to unforeseen commitments. Contact the director, Michael Peters (studyatthestudio@live.com).

So if you put cops where lots of crimes are committed, the number of crimes committed goes down? That's a revolutionary concept - who would've thought of it? All our problems are over now! thanks so much - at last we can let the children play in the streets again without fear. Wait....

Sounds like it was auto translated but then I noticed the 'schitzophrenic' - I've seen the same writing style before - an oddly fractured, almost cubist style with it's almost complete unreadability. One's brain keeps faltering over the weird mixture of tenses, punctuation and word use. Sadly it fails to communicate in any way.
