St. Patrick's Day: Visit Patch Booth at Dublin Festival

Stop by to meet some of our editors and pick up some cool Patchy swag while enjoying the festivities this Saturday and Sunday.

Rain or shine (we're hoping for shine!), Patch will be at Dublin's St. Patrick's Day Festival Saturday and Sunday, taking photos, signing readers up for our newsletter and handing out cool Patchy swag.

We'd tell you to look for our bright green booth, but we have a feeling that our signature company color is not exactly going to stand out at this particular event. So just look for the big Patch banner and stop by to meet your friendly local Patch staffers.

We'll be there to answer your questions and share information about how you can be a part of our online community platform by claiming your business listing, blogging or adding your own events and announcements.

Of course, our booth is hardly the main attraction. This weekend will be full of festivities in Dublin (the one in Alameda County, not Ireland!).

Congratulations, Carla. The article failed to mention what a great neighbor you are.

I agree with Ross. A predator would have eaten those yummy, tender, tasty baby birds. It soundsRead More more like a case of incompetent nest construction to me. Were they doves? Doves are well-known for their inability to build proper nests but there are others who struggle too. Instinct and ability do not always travel hand-in-hand. Not much you can do about that, unfortunately. Some creatures are incompetent. Some people are incompetent. That's life.

I would think that if it were a cat or raccoon, you wouldn't be seeing little baby bird corpses onRead More the ground--they'd be et. Ditto for possums.

Hey! Cool! Now I know where to dump my unwanted items! ;-) Seriously though, "the city"Read More is not helpless, "the city" is lazy and sometimes you have to kick them in the ass to get them moving. What have you tries thus far? I assume you have communicated with the CV owner or contractor. What else have you done?

This is not only an eyesore. This is a health hazard. The boards you see in the photo have nailsRead More sticking out. This area has become the trash heap for anyone walking by wanting to dispose of garbage. With bins overflowing, trash is blown down the street into residents' yards.

Another example of more balanced reporting from Berkeleyside article:Read More http://www.berkeleyside.com/2013/05/17/uc-berkeley-seeks-funds-to-cut-down-22000-non-native-trees/. Some of the comments are useful especially about glyphosphate. The author of the article even used his own name.

The source cited in this announcement states up to 1,400 gallons of herbicide possibly includingRead More Roundup might be used rather than 14,000 gallons of Roundup will be used. Not that I am in favor of dosing the environment with petrochemicals, but I do like to make decisions based on facts. I also have to wonder about the accuracy of the source given that it is an opinion piece rather than an article.

And now for the more balanced reporting: "But U.C. Berkeley wants to remove most of its 22,000Read More eucalyptus and acacia trees, then restore native species like they did in the Claremont Canyon." From this article: http://abclocal.go.com/kgo/story?section=news/local/east_bay&id=9107025
