Re: “Is UC Berkeley's Plan to Cut Down 54,000 Trees Necessary?

Had the author exercised a modicum of due diligence, she could have saved the East Bay Express a lot of paper and ink.

The letter cited by the " respected environmental engineering company" is over four years old. A trip to the Claremont Canyon or a visit to my blog, where I have shared hundreds of recent photos, prove the " respected environmental engineering company" was dead wrong!

The biologist was right, the contractor was wrong. The stunted riparian woodland recovers quite rapidly once the oppressive eucalypti are eradicated.

The alternative to eradication, Thin, limp, and scrape, is not best practice for the developed sections of the park.

It is totally unworkable in the steep, rugged, undeveloped forest.

I don't know if Kathleen Richards has an agenda or not. Deliberately misleading, or just grossly misinformed, either way, this article is waster of paper and ink.

Re: “White Horse Inn

The oldest in the Bay Area still has it. Pool, Burlesque, events and beer busts. Still numero uno in my book.

Love their cocktails - high end and tons of whiskey and bourbon choices.

Re: “Mama's Royal Cafe

Their specials say it all. Never mind it's cash only and it's a $2 ATM fee. IT'S WORTH IT.

Re: “The Prizefighter

Laid back, outside and inside seating - you can go here all dolled up for dinner (it's swanky inside) or in your jeans with the dog to sit outside. It's the perfect blend, all while being just far enough away to make it not too hard to nestle up to that bar for another smooth cocktail.

Re: “Point Isabel

After moving to the East Bay, I thought nothing could match Fort Funston - until I met Point Isabel. The views are totally different and breathtaking. I went from the coastline at Funston to the span of the Bay overlooking San Francisco and being able to see at least 3 bridges at all times - all while my pup romps around off leash with other (mostly) well behaved dogs and awesome owners.

Re: “Sweet Adeline Bakeshop

Delicious and in a perfect spot to keep it just busy enough and not too busy so I can always get my fix. Their almond morning bread is mouth watering.

Re: “Sista Sandwich Allows Gluten-Free Diners to Grab and Go

Here's hoping some more like-minded people will do this all over the country. It truly is hard to find a gluten-free snack when travelling around. Thank you to these sisters for taking this first step!

Re: “Yelp and the Business of Extortion 2.0

Beware of Yelp and their extortionist tactics to push you into advertising with them. After complaining that two of my reviews were being "filtered" and hidden from viewers, I called them out on Twitter. Within the hour, a Yelp salesman called and urged me to advertise with them ($300) and suggested that it would help my reviews from being filtered. (These reviews are from legitimately satisfied customers that happen to really like us.) After rejecting Yelp and calling the tactics "bullying to small startups", I've discovered that ALL my legit reviews are now concealed, giving my business a disadvantage to the other businesses when being searched locally. I apologize to those of you who gave us great feedback.
