La Jolla California Landslide
Posted by eBestAgent in NEWS, tags: La Jolla, NEWS, San DiegoLandslide: Mt. Soledad area in La Jolla, California
A major hillside collapse in La Jolla, Calif., caused massive damage to the overlying four-lane road and forced evacuations in a residential neighborhood Wednesday, October 3, 2007
A four-lane road buckled Wednesday and sank slowly in a hilly upscale neighborhood, one home was destroyed and at least eight others were in danger as the collapse buckled and folded a 50-yard span of asphalt, leaving deep trenches in the road. Rescue crews were evacuating residents and power and gas lines had been shut off in the area.
The sinkhole in the La Jolla neighborhood of million-dollar homes cut in a cone shape and was about 50 yards long. Homes in the area are worth to $2 million plus.
“This area has had some slide problems dating back a number of years,” said Maurice Luque, a spokesman for the San Diego Fire-Rescue Department. “The problems are not new to this area.”

A firm hired by the city last month was in the area Monday after a large section of slope on Mount Soledad began to slip. City officials said Monday they were moving quickly to prevent catastrophic loss. They sent letters two weeks ago to alert residents and began knocking on doors Monday. Street cracking began on Soledad Mountain Road in July and escalated in August, along with breaks in water and gas lines.
At least three significant hill slides have occurred in the general vicinity between 1961 and 1994, including a major failure in 1961 that destroyed seven homes under construction.

Zune and iPod: Most people compare the Zune to the Touch, but after seeing how slim and surprisingly small and light it is, I consider it to be a rather unique hybrid that combines qualities of both the Touch and the Nano. It’s very colorful and lovely OLED screen is slightly smaller than the touch screen, but the player itself feels quite a bit smaller and lighter. It weighs about 2/3 as much, and is noticeably smaller in width and height, while being just a hair thicker.

Your best bet is Walmart. They carry Kenmore, Singer, Brother etc. You can get one for less than $100.00 and they work very well. I bought one for a relative a few months ago (she wanted to learn as well); I have a machine I bought from Sears years ago and loved her machine for $99.00 so much I went back for one for myself. I sew everything!from clothes, stuffed animals, I’ve reupholstered my sofa etc. Have fun learning, once you start you won’t want to stop….
This is getting a bit more subjective, but I much prefer the Zune Marketplace. The interface is colorful, has more flair, and some cool features like ‘Mixview’ that let you quickly see related albums, songs, or other users related to what you’re listening to. Clicking on one of those will center on that item, and another set of “neighbors” will come into view, allowing you to navigate around exploring by similar artists, songs, or users. Speaking of users, the Zune “Social” is also great fun, letting you find others with shared tastes and becoming friends with them. You then can listen to a playlist created based on an amalgamation of what all your friends are listening to, which is also enjoyable. Those concerned with privacy will be relieved to know you can prevent the public from seeing your personal listening habits if you so choose.
