Kizomba has nothing LATIN in it. It is an African dance.
It comes from the mix of Semba (yeah not…Read More samba, in fact samba comes from Semba) and Caribbean zouk. Not going to call out all the other fake facts it this article. You should check your facts before lying to your costumers.

Kizomba. Sounds more African than Latin. Who knowa, this may last or go away as fast as the Lambada.…Read More I remember when salsa was just a type of music. Some people say there is no such dance as the salsa. It is like jazz, There is jazz music and you may go to a dance studio to learn jazz dancing, but you don't go into a dance studio and say. "I want to learn the jazz,"

This looks like a great workout too! I like any music with strong African beats, so I'm sure I'll…Read More enjoy Kizomba!

Thanks Maria! It is hard to hear criticism, especially when we are set in our ways. But if someone…Read More notices something, it's better to consider there perspective because they'll notice things we may not. Look forward to reading more of your blogs!

If the city council likes fake plastic nature, then let them saran-wrap their own yards! LEAVE OUR…Read More PARKS ALONE!! This is soccer special interest pressure on city government at its worst, and the city council appears unwilling or unable to withstand it.
Crestview Park is a particularly quiet, serene, simple park with lovely views which the council now wants to turn into a sports arena. Any day you can go there and see families playing on the grass, toddlers and moms enjoying picnics and play time, kids learning to ride their bikes on the nice flat paved area, athletes and older folks enjoying the flat natural track (the only one in San Carlos) to get in shape, teens throwing frisbees on the lawn. It is a perfect place for ALL residents to enjoy according to their needs, not a sports arena dedicated to one activity at the expense of all.
Belmont faced a similar lack of sports venues, but they did not choose to pave paradise. They wisely raised money and built a sports complex and spared their beautiful parks for use by ALL residents. I would like to see our city council do the right thing also.
And by the way, the opposition to this short-sighted plan is far more than "some residents"! Please visit our booth at Hometown Days.

One summer my kid had soccer camp on at an artificial turf field. It was terrible. It made…Read More everything hotter and very uncomfortable. I had to pull my kid out of camp early because of it. I do not think it is better for the environment OR for kids. Just go to any turf field and try to walk across it on a hot day. Try to go barefoot on it (good luck!) We have been told not to microwave plastic containers because of BPA and bad chemicals that can cause cancer. What about heating up plastic grass and running around on it, breathing the fumes that come off it?? How is that any different?

Artificial turf is appropriate for dedicated use sports venues, not for multi-use city parks.

Great, review! Saw it based on this and am telling all my friends to see the movie.

Hi! Wow, that must have been so stressful! It is important to take your gown to someone that does…Read More everything on site, and is hands on with the bride. I offer the option to view before preservation, as well as the option to be present while I preserve the gown. I also work directly with every bride and handle all of the gowns myself, to ensure nothing goes wrong throughout the process. I hope you were able to get your daughters gown back!

Hi, we had my daughter's wedding dress cleaned and boxed just after her wedding and put the box…Read More away for several days before deciding to peek at it just one more time, took the outer box off and peered into the "window" and we're astonished to see it wasn't her dress at all!!! Brides/Moms. Be sure to check to see that the cleaners give you the correct dress!

Nope. Nothing of the sort. I do not write or do my reviews with any bias in mind and I do not…Read More receive any compensation. It's a great product that stands on its own and I would still recommend it, friendship or no friendship. Thanks for reading.

Do you get a cut of the sale? You should get something for turning your blog into a sales pitch for…Read More your friend.

No question there are less expensive ways to make raised beds, Rico. I like the M braces because…Read More they are a quick solution, save time, and are recyclable. For me the ininitial investment will pay off over time. Thanks for reading!

Thanks for doing this. The one blatant thing I observe on a daily basis is the number and frequency…Read More of deputy's at Starbucks on 800 laurel street and the sky kitchen. I never see them in the neighborhoods. The police department was much better

Tsk, tsk, tsk. You left out the word communist, and you also neglected to blame President Obama.

Agreed. Thanks for putting this together for us, Cliff.
