А скажите мне, господа, как разумнее поступить в данном случае. Только что мне позвонили с обычной просьбой о пожертвованиях, мол, firefighters, underprivileged children - ничего особенного. Но когда я в ответ поинтересовалась, почему у них номер блокирован, и как мне удостовериться в... услышала "Go back to Russia, bitch". Оно, конечно, можно плюнуть и забыть. Но есть ведь более доверчивые души, нежели bitches from Russia. И они не читали про "Союз меча и орала". Может, следует позвонить в полицию? Или без толку? (тэг legal_advise не слишком подходит, но лучшего не нашла). |

Lonely at Christmas in SF? Some ideas from Craigslist
(This was originally posted on Craigslist 12/24/2001. I'm not the author but it helped me during a sad time in my life so I post it every year on behalf of the real author in the hopes that it might help someone else.) Christmas bums me out. I have no family, and most of my friends have died. I have no place to go for a friends & family & tree dinner and day of Yule Tide Spirits. However, I won't pule about my misery. I've done this for the past four years and it works for me. But. This is what I do to make Christmas bearable for me. Preface this with saying that this Christmas looks like it's going to be nice weather, so no reason to sit isolated at home! OK? These are just my things. Think of some of your own, too. 1. Get out of your apartment. 2. Take a walk. 3. Ride MUNI somewhere neat. The drivers aren't happy about working Christmas, so be nice to them and greet them with "Merry Christmas," and thank them for the transfer. Make eye contact with other passengers and smile. 4. Go to different parts of town you've not been to. 5. Round up some of that spare change you have in a jar or such ... carry it around with you and give it to panhandlers and watch their surprize ... sure, let 'em buy a beer or cigs or whatever. It's Christmas for them, too. Who am I to judge? ( Read more... ) |

unique trans-friendly greeting cards?
A friend's partner is having top surgery soon and I was going to send a card or two to cheer him up during his recovery. I'm new to the area, but in the past in situations like these, I never expected to find anything beyond the standard "get well" card. However, now that I'm living in the bay area, I figured there just might be a local artist or store selling more appropriate cards. Do any of you have any suggestions? I'm near Oakland and Berkeley most often, but a trip into SF is pretty easy for me, too. (I'd prefer to stick close to home!) Thanks! |

Moving to San Francisco
So my husband and I are planning on moving to the San Francisco Bay Area sometime next year, in January, February, or March 2010. We are looking for a studio or one bedroom apartment and these are some of the questions we’ve had for people who live in the area. From the research we’ve done thus far, West Portal, Noe Valley, the Marina, Northern Sunset, and Richmond seem to be areas that we would be interested in living. What’s the culture like in these areas? Which areas are more commercial and which areas are more locally focused? Generally speaking, is rent cheaper in any of these areas more so than others, and which areas have more available apartments? We were also interested in the North Beach and Russian Hill. I am curious as to what you can tell me about Oakland and Berkeley. Are there any areas within Oakland and Berkeley that are less commercial and more local, but also near the BART? Can you tell me anything about the Lake Merritt area? For locals, where are the best beaches to go to in the Bay Area? What ones are the most popular, and where can you find some that are less busy? Finally, I’m interested in knowing if anyone has any insights into the job market at non-profits. I just completed my MA in International Human Rights, and I would really like to find a job at a non-profit, particularly focused in poverty alleviation and economic development in Asia, but I’m open to other non-profits too! Well, thanks ahead of time! (Cross-posted at bayarea, sanfrancisco, and sfbayarea) |

Looking for a jazz dance class (SF, east bay preferred)
Howdy! After 30 years of being away from it, I have the urge to take a jazz dance class. I used to be reasonably competent, but I'm in my 40s and out-of-shape, so I'm looking for a beginner-level class. When I say jazz, I mean Broadway-style dancing, not something that involves a partner. I'm also looking for something that focuses on dance, not jazzercise. Can anyone recommend a place in San Francisco, the Oakland/Berkeley area, or somewhere nearby that would have an adult beginner-level jazz class? |

Хайкин о Гедике Неутомимый труженикВ 1920 году я поступил в Московскую консерваторию по специальности фортепиано и был зачислен в класс А. Ф. Гедике. С тех пор и по самый день смерти Александра Федоровича — 9 июля 1957 года — я был тесно связан с ним, или, правильнее было бы сказать, горячо привязан к нему как к учителю, музыканту, замечательному человеку. Александр Федорович был подлинным музыкальным воспитателем, самозабвенно посвятившим себя этому труду. ( Read more... )«А. Ф. Гедике. Сборник статей и воспоминаний», М., 1960 |

Хайкин о Сараджеве
(Из кн.: "Хайкин Б. Э. Беседы о дирижерском ремесле. Статьи. - М., 1984.) Большой художникВ 1922 году в Московской консерватории был организован специальный дирижерский класс. Этот класс возглавил профессор консерватории Константин Соломонович Сараджев, с которым я тогда познакомился как один из его первых учеников. ( Read more... )«К. С. Сараджев. Статьи.

From SFGate: Boxer supports abortion deal Boxer supports abortion dealCalifornia Sen. Barbara Boxer, deep in the negotiations with health care holdout Ben Nelson, signed off on the abortion compromise that goes further than she wanted, but clears the way to get the health care bill out of the Senate by Christmas. Democrats consider the deadline a political imperative. The compromise goes further than Rep. Lois Capps, D-Santa Barbara, wanted, but may help keep the Stupak crowd on board in the House, another political imperative. Here's Boxer's statement with Sen. Patty Murray of Washington: "We said all along that we wanted to ensure there was a firewall between private and public funds -- this compromise achieves that. "We said we would not accept language that prohibited a woman from using her own private funds for her legal reproductive health care --this compromise meets that test. "And we said we would stop Stupak -- which we did. Let's be clear -- we were both much happier with the Capps language and the language in the underlying bill. "But compromise was necessary to get a health care bill for the American people, and this compromise achieves that." #### ( My Call for Action under the cut ) Current Mood: determined |
