Two buildings will be built adjacent to the college center and bookstore at a cost of about $7 million. The board meets in the administration building, 980 Fremont St.
The U.S. Forest Service plans a prescribed burn Tuesday on the Brazil Ranch about 13 miles south of Carmel along Highway 1. Smoke will be visible for miles, and the highway could be affected by the 78-acre burn, forest officials said in a news release.
For information, visitors can call the Monterey ranger district at 386-0751.
Seaside city officials are converting Pachetti Park at Kimball and Noche Buena avenues into a dog-friendly park. City ordinances ban dogs from running unrestrained in parks, and officials want to make an exception for Pachetti Park.
With help from the state Department of Forestry, city workers will level and landscape the park. The project will take about six months.
A Michigan state senator and the president of the Detroit City Council attended the annual convention of the Nation of Islam, a black supremacist group headed by notorious anti-Semite Louis Farrakhan. Farrakhan, who once called Hitler a “very great man,” railed against Jews and called for a separate black nation in his speech at the convention on Sunday.
State Sen. Bert Johnson and Detroit City Council President Brenda Jones were among those on stage with Farrakhan during his speech, according to the Detroit Free Press. Jones served as a delegate for Hillary Clinton at the Democratic National Convention.
The left-leaning Southern Poverty Law Center classifies the Nation of Islam as an extremist organization. “Its theology of innate black superiority over whites and the deeply racist, anti-Semitic and anti-gay rhetoric of its leaders have earned the NOI a prominent position in the ranks of organized hate,” SPLC’s website states.
Farrakhan has a long history of spreading anti-Semitic conspiracy theories.
Like Farrakhan, Ellison once called for American blacks to carve out a separate nation for themselves within America.
The Financial District's Stone Street is usually crawling with people in finance.
In New York City, things can get old pretty fast. So we've taken it upon ourselves to revamp last year's list of the most obnoxious Wall Street bars. Several have since closed, but many are still kicking and as annoying as ever.
Frequented by financiers, these Manhattan bars are loud, rowdy, and ridiculous. If you're into sweaty crowds, flashing lights, or absurd conversations, it's time to scope some of these out.
Otherwise, we've done the rounds on these bars so you don't have to. You're welcome.
If we left out any of your favorites, let us know in the comments!
Vibe: Probably the biggest draw about 230 Fifth is that you're going to get a great Instagram photo of the Empire State Building. It's a huge rooftop space that can service a large crowd. The later it gets, the more packed this place gets.
Popular Drinks: Raspberry mojitos "in the summer".
Overheard: "Oh my gawd, the Empire State building is so beeaaauuuutiful."
Vibe: Turtle Bay is your "typical bar" with beer chuggers, cheerleader look-alikes, and even a handful of Mets fans watching games on the TVs. The front section is supersaturated with summer interns and young professionals. People over the age of 25 should seriously consider the pros and cons before they enter.
Vibe: The dim Irish bar is more calm during the summer, but come August and September, the bar is filled with finance guys that could have come straight out of "The Wolf of Wall Street."
Vibe: Most people who go to Johnny Utah's are there to check "ride a mechanical bull" off of their bucket list. On a good night, it can get incredibly full inside — but the wait for the bull is never too long. The bar itself is dark with high ceilings, but it somehow works.
Overheard: "This is the kind of place where no matter how casual you are, you still feel overdressed."
Vibe: The first half of Joshua Tree could seem like a standard bar, but the back room is where the magic happens. The magic being loud '80s and '90s music videos playing from all corners of the bar. Accompanied by bright neon lights, of course. The layout of the place isn't really ideal for dancing, but that doesn't stop some people.
Overheard: Not much, over the blaring music of "Barbie Girl."
Vibe: You descend stairs to get into the bar, so the whole thing had a sort of "drinking in a dark basement" vibe to it. This definitely isn't the kind of place you go for a quality drink — it seemed like the majority of people were clutching PBR's, relieved to be done with work for the day. Also, a surprising amount of people were on the older end.
Overheard: "Ahahahahaha... Barclays."; "Please tell my friend to shave that thing off."
Vibe: McFadden's is kind of like the Wall Street equivalent of a packed college bar. Most of the people inside are summer analysts and their friends. There was a lot of young looking guys wearing full suits, and for whatever reason only Avicii was playing.
Overheard: Right outside the bar, a summer analyst used the word "banker" four times in three minutes while hitting on two older women at the same time.
Vibe: This is probably where Barney Stinson picked up women; there were clusters of men in suits who were chatting up women in short and colorful dresses. The bartenders were incredibly nice and the whole bar has a country dive bar vibe.
Overheard: "I want another drink before I get on the LIRR."
Vibe: Unless you know the promoter, you get to join the line waiting outside the Gansevoort Hotel, which one girl promised her friends, "moves really fast." Pink and purple lights, loud dance music, and a rooftop deck make the Plunge a popular weekend location.
Overheard: "It's, like, sweaty people."
Vibe: Although the entire Stone Street is usually swarming with people who work in finance, Ulysses often gets a nod for being one of the most popular and obnoxious options in the cobblestoned area.
Overheard: "Sorry I have a boyfriend." "It's OK, so do I."
Vibe: Another Stone Street favorite for an after-work drink. Although there are rows of wobbly tables outside, it's near impossible to find a spot during the most popular hours.
Overheard: "You're in finance ... why wouldn't you take the money from the boat, invest it, and buy a bigger boat? He has no money management skills."
Vibe: Probably the most popular of Tonic's three floors is the rooftop bar, repleted with two bars, tables, and a slew of people filling up the space in between. The rest of the place is very neon and loud, but during the less obnoxious hours most people know this place as your standard sports bar.
Overheard: "Molly? Oh, I can get you some."
Vibe: Lavo is expensive and over the top. It gets incredibly crowded and the whole place has a glaring Eurotrash vibe. Suited men frequently are accompanied by beautiful stiletto-wearing women.
Vibe: Chances are pretty good you'll eventually pop into a Brother Jimmy's. It gets really packed and people start dancing late at night. All the TVs stream sports matches — so game nights get especially rowdy. Sometimes your fish bowl comes with a plastic lizard.
Overheard: Obnoxious people who are legitimately enjoying themselves.
Location: The Standard Hotel — 848 Washington St.
Vibe: This place is really fun and is pretty close to what a true German biergarten is like. However, the lines can be insanely long and it can be near impossible to find seating. Plus, you need to purchase tickets in order to get drinks — which can get annoying.
And here is what you should not wear to those bars (or any bar).
Trump came to power promising that masterful leadership would replace the “stupid” kind. This action was malicious, counterproductive and inept – the half-baked work of amateurs who know little about security, little about immigration law, and nothing about compassion.
There is more systematic thought, however, behind Trump’s attempt to recast America’s global role – presumably the guiding influence of adviser Stephen Bannon. In his inaugural address, Trump asserted the “right of all nations to put their own interests first” and promised, “We do not seek to impose our way of life on anyone.” Trump’s version of America is a normal nation, like Holland or Ghana, concerned with its own borders and business, and generally indifferent to the “way of life” chosen by others. Our national identity – like for other nations – is ethnic and cultural. Trump’s America is vaguely Christian. Vaguely 1950s. Vividly white.
A number of policies emerge from these convictions: a walled country, a closed economy and highly restricted immigration. Traditional American commitments – to the special relationship with Britain, to a strong and growing NATO and European Union, to America’s Pacific security umbrella – seem up for grabs. The trumpet always calls retreat.
Every American president since World War II has disagreed with the stunted and self-defeating view of the country now held by Trump. Over the last century – in some ways from the beginning – the United States has been a cheerfully abnormal nation. American identity (in this view) is not based mainly on blood or soil, but rather on the patriotic acceptance of a unifying creed. American leaders, Democratic and Republican, have believed that a world where the realm of freedom is growing is more prosperous and secure; a world where freedom is retreating is more dangerous. The reason is not mystical. Dictators tend to be belligerent. Governments accountable to their people are generally more peaceful.
It is the lesson of hard experience. America found – twice – that it could not avoid the bloody disorders of Europe by ignoring them. It found that a Pacific dominated by a single, hostile power is a direct threat to its economy and security. It found that Russian aggression in Europe is like Newton’s First Law – moving until some force stops it.
Intimate moments with the 'Wolf of Wall Street' actress, featuring a funny joke in her kitchen... in her underwear.

Eco-Foosball? Yep. It's a Thing.
Will a cardboard foosball table actually work well? Not sure. But still... kinda cool.
You may have seen doorbell camera videos of sloppy deliveries, deliverymen opening up packages, and those holiday season porch thieves stealing holiday deliveries.
But this one really sets new ground.
Christa Thomas never thought she'd be one of those unlucky homeowners, with a bad delivery experience, until now.
Her security camera shows her husband almost running over a delivery, that was laying in the driveway.
"He said he found a package in the middle of the driveway. He found it strange," she said.
The Amazon package -- luckily containing just children's DVD's, and not a new iPhone -- was laying right in the "tire lane" of her driveway.
When the Thomas' checked their second security camera, they saw precisely how it happened. A delivery pulled up and tossed the package out his SUV's window like a newspaper.
"It shows the driver on our driveway, throwing the package from the window onto the middle of the driveway," Thomas said, "and then immediately leaving."
A decade ago when you ordered from Amazon you could be assured that someone from FedEx, UPS, or the US Postal Service would bring that package to you.
But now with tens of millions of packages delivered during the holiday season, anyone could be bringing that package to your door.
These Amazon Flex drivers, as they are known, work for third-party companies, not Amazon. Then they contract with Amazon for the final leg of delivery.
But Amazon told one of our sister stations earlier this year "we have high standards for delivery, and expect every package to be handled with care."
An Amazon spokesman told us they will investigate this case.
Christa Thomas says they need to take a look. "It's highly concerning, had it been fragile and someone just throws it out the window like its trash, that's concerning."
Thomas says if a gift is made of glass, or is fragile electronics, she'll probably buy it at the store in the future.
Arrange for a neighbor to take a delivery during the holiday season.
That way you reduce your chance of a damaged package or missing gift, and you don't waste your money.
Rhinopithecus strykeri, also known as the Myanmar Snub-Nosed Monkey or Sneezing Monkey was discovered just a few years ago, in 2010. Their small numbers and elusive behaviors made them very hard to find, and since them, even harder to study.
All the species of snub-nosed monkeys have short stubby noses, but R. strykeri’s is just a little too much – their nostrils are turned upwards so much, that when it rains, droplets actually go into their noses, causing them to sneeze – hence the nickname. This of course, can get them into a lot of trouble, making them easier to find by predators – so they simply hide their face in their knees and patiently wait for the rain to end.
The species is critically endangered – they number less than 300 individuals, and their numbers are decreasing more and more. But it’s not predators which are the cause, it’s humans – the usual suspects when it comes to killing off species. Illegal loggers destroy the habitat more and more for their own profit, and there is no authority to impose the law there. Local tribes often get into conflict with the loggers (sometimes violent conflicts), but this is something way above their heads.
On March 28, Fauna & Flora International (FFI) released a special video of about two dozen of these monkeys traveling through the forest’s canopy – this is in fact the first video of these snub nosed monkeys, which makes it extremely special.
This video provides conservationists with critical information about the species. While many leaf-eating monkeys live in small families, this shows a relatively large group of them living together – highlighting just how little we understand of this remarkable, almost extinct species.

As a recreational runner, oftentimes it’s tough to tell if that twinge in your hip is something to worry about, or totally normal. There are so many stretching techniques, training fads, and conflicting bits of advice out there, that knowing best practices in running can be tough sometimes. That’s why we’re really excited at Stride to announce that we have an expert on hand to answer all your training questions. Brian Kura is a physical therapist with Athletico, and he’s our go-to for all things running. If you have a question about your training, a funky foot ache, or what the heck you’re supposed to do with a foam roller—Brian has the answer.
Born and raised in Park Ridge, Illinois, Brian was a three-sport athlete for Maine South High school, lettering in football, swimming, and track. He played varsity football for Cornell College for two years before transferring to Monmouth College, where he was a three-year letter winner on the men’s swimming team, graduating with a degree in exercise science. He then attended the Des Moines University of Osteopathic Medicine and Health Sciences, earning a doctoral degree in Physical Therapy in 2010.
Brian has been with Athletico for the past four years, is an active member of their Endurance program, and is trained in Video Gait Analysis as well as the Graston technique for manual therapy intervention. With patient care, he specializes in endurance athletes, foot and ankle injuries, post-surgical knee intervention, and high-level throwing athletes. He also volunteers as a swim coach at his alma mater, Maine South.
So if you have a question about running, training, injuries, best practices, and more—ask away! We’ll do a weekly “Ask the Expert” post, so leave a comment or tweet to @StrideNBC, and we’ll check with Brian and give you his answer.

Keith Cooper was convicted nearly 20 years ago of a crime he did not commit. On Thursday, he was finally pardoned.
Gov. Eric Holcomb issued the pardon to the former Elkhart resident who was put behind bars based on what his attorney would later describe as problematic witness statements, police actions and DNA results.
Cooper's plight became widely known following a 2015 IndyStar series on wrongful convictions. Although Cooper was released from prison in 2006, he said he has struggled to advance in a career and overcome the stigma associated with the felony conviction.
