There she chronicles her love of making things like lemon curd from foraged fruit, spray-painted lampshades and cut felt placemats. The projects she creates are regularly picked up by national websites and magazines.

By weekend, she tends bees and grows vegetables in the backyard.",

However, the group will likely face a significant drop in sales volume that will impact its large operating budget, designed to handle more than 10,000 members a month, according to interviews with former staff and industry experts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two of the best years for Berkeley Patients Group were 2008 and 2009, when it recorded $17.4 million and $16.4 million respectively in total income from the distribution of marijuana buds, edible products infused with pot, as well as seeds, clones and other items (company discounts reduced the actual figures by $1.1 million in 2008 and $1.3 million in 2009). According to company documents, the cost for goods sold was about $10 million in 2008 and $9 million in 2009, leaving a gross profit margin close to 40 percent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The biggest portion of the group’s operating expenses went to labor costs, which totaled $3.3 million in 2009, including more than $911,00 paid to co-directors Deborah Goldsberry, Etienne Fontan and Tim Schick.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Berkeley Patients Group’s former bookkeeper, Doug McVay, said salaries for top executives were increased by as much as 50 percent in 2009, and that total compensation figures detailed in the documents reflected generous bonuses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was a lot of money,” he said, noting that salaries for other staff were also raised. \"Employees were treated quite well.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>State medical marijuana laws do not require dispensary operators to disclose salaries of any employees. Executives at Berkeley Patients Group and Harborside Health Center, a large dispensary based in Oakland, have repeatedly refused to publicly reveal compensation packages or report them to local authorities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Because BPG is a private company, it does not disclose salaries or other sensitive financial information to the public,” Berkeley Patients Group said in a written statement earlier this year, adding that compensation levels were in line with “other medical non-profits of our size in the Bay Area.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Allison Margolin, a Los Angeles defense attorney who has represented more than 70 dispensaries, said Berkeley Patients Group’s salaries looked fair and the books seemed to be in order.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Margolin said successful marijuana operators were justified in measuring themselves against other nonprofits of comparable size. “Executives of nonprofits can make millions of dollars – hospitals are nonprofits,\" she said. \"I think it's reasonable for dispensary executives to make millions, too, considering the risk and myriad skills involved.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In addition, she said the company’s finances could help explain why medical marijuana costs as much as $60 for an eighth of an ounce in California, which is similar to the cost on the black market. There's the cost of inventory, plus an endless list of expenses including insurance, attorney and accountant fees and advertising.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The truth is, if dispensaries weren't charging market prices they'd be out of business,” she said, adding that the constant threat of robberies and police raids raised the cost of doing business.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Berkeley Patients Group spent $151,789 for security in 2009.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One area where the dispensary appears to fall short of its public rhetoric is in its donations to local charities. While company executives have said they contribute generously to groups ranging from local libraries and schools to the Berkeley Chamber of Commerce, internal documents show the group gave $18,083 to charity in 2009. In contrast, it distributed $253,433 to marijuana advocacy organizations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over the past year, Berkeley Patients Group has faced a series of legal and financial challenges. According to a 2011 state audit, the group owed $6.4 million to the California State Board of Equalization for its failure to pay sales taxes from 2004 to 2007. Company officials have said they are paying off the debt in monthly installments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In addition, former co-owner Deborah Goldsberry filed a wrongful termination complaint last year accusing company directors of illegally funneling more than half a million dollars to finance four dispensaries in Maine. Her complaint was settled in January.

Alex Yao says the arrest total for the day so far (three minutes to go) is 39. He says all of the arrestees are being held at Alameda County's Santa Rita Jail. \"All of those arrested were arrested on two charges: resisting and delaying a police officer in the performance of their duties, and failure to disperse when given a dispersal order.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Update 11:55 p.m.:\u003c/strong> Oakland Tribune live blog says the crowd is thinning some. Meantime, the Daily California quotes ASUC leaders as saying the police are preparing to arrest protesters but that a warning will be issued first. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ABC7-KGO News (which is one of the stations that's had a helicopter flying endless circles over Berkeley all day and into the night) is reporting that 33 people have been arrested on the Cal campus as UC Police backed by Alameda County Sheriff's police struggle over a patch of grass outside the university's main administration building, Sproul Hall. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shortly before 10 p.m., officers moved in to remove a handful of tents that had been erected as part of the Occupy Cal protest just outside the building. ABC7-KGO quoted police as reporting 23 men and 10 women were taken into custody. As they had in at least two other confrontations earlier in the evening and afternoon, officers jabbed protesters with riot batons. There have been reports since late in the afternoon that some protesters were injured seriously enough by the baton-wielding officers that they needed medical attention. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Occupy Cal supporters put out repeated calls via Twitter for more people to join the crowd after police seized the Sproul Hall tents. Reports on ABC7-KGO and KTVU-Channel 2 estimated the crowd in the hundreds, but even in the TV pictures it was growing as midnight neared. An estimate of 1,000-plus doesn't seem reckless, just judging from the video.

Alex Yao says the arrest total for the day so far (three minutes to go) is 39. He says all of the arrestees are being held at Alameda County's Santa Rita Jail. \"All of those arrested were arrested on two charges: resisting and delaying a police officer in the performance of their duties, and failure to disperse when given a dispersal order.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Update 11:55 p.m.:\u003c/strong> Oakland Tribune live blog says the crowd is thinning some. Meantime, the Daily California quotes ASUC leaders as saying the police are preparing to arrest protesters but that a warning will be issued first. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ABC7-KGO News (which is one of the stations that's had a helicopter flying endless circles over Berkeley all day and into the night) is reporting that 33 people have been arrested on the Cal campus as UC Police backed by Alameda County Sheriff's police struggle over a patch of grass outside the university's main administration building, Sproul Hall. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shortly before 10 p.m., officers moved in to remove a handful of tents that had been erected as part of the Occupy Cal protest just outside the building. ABC7-KGO quoted police as reporting 23 men and 10 women were taken into custody. As they had in at least two other confrontations earlier in the evening and afternoon, officers jabbed protesters with riot batons. There have been reports since late in the afternoon that some protesters were injured seriously enough by the baton-wielding officers that they needed medical attention. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Occupy Cal supporters put out repeated calls via Twitter for more people to join the crowd after police seized the Sproul Hall tents. Reports on ABC7-KGO and KTVU-Channel 2 estimated the crowd in the hundreds, but even in the TV pictures it was growing as midnight neared. An estimate of 1,000-plus doesn't seem reckless, just judging from the video.

Newsom will be sworn in Monday as lieutenant governor. Gascón, who had been police chief just 18 months, will be jumping from one scandal-ridden department to another.

For nine years, police officers underwent 40 hours of training apiece in how to recognize mentally ill suspects and de-escalate crises. The training was called for under a lawsuit settlement with the family of a mentally disturbed man whom officers shot to death in 2001 when he brandished a knife at them in a movie theater. More than 1,000 officers completed the training before the department eliminated the program in June.

For 18 months, he was unable to break his dry spell, despite locking himself in his studio and undergoing psychoanalysis. A dream finally helped him to break out of this period of \"creative lockdown.\" One night, he envisioned a supertanker blasting out of the San Francisco Bay and soaring up into the sky. That image gave him the inspiration to write the powerful, pounding E-minor chords that launched a 40-minute symphony, \"Harmonielehre,\" which then opened the way for him to compose the much-acclaimed \"Nixon in China.\"\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://www.marinij.com/marinnews/ci_17036398\" target=\"_blank\">At San Rafael-based chain, a passion for bikes—and philanthropy \u003c/a>(Marin Independent Journal)\u003cbr>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>While Ken Martin and Matt Adams were traveling in Namibia, Africa, a couple years ago, two of their hosts appeared with a digital camera and a photo printer.

During the past several years he and Adams have expanded that mission beyond their Northern California customer base to Africa, where they see the bicycle as an affordable form of transportation in a region where cars are often out of reach and many people rely on walking.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-beliefs-desert-20110108,0,2708832.story\" target=\"_blank\">Interfaith group seeks to protect California deserts\u003c/a> (Los Angeles Times)\u003cbr>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>Seven religious leaders climbed out of their vehicles on a recent weekday and scattered on foot across Whitewater Canyon northwest of Palm Springs.

Calling the ceremony his “final mayoral act,” Newsom announced George Gascón’s surprise appointment during a hasty, crowded ceremony outside the mayor’s offices on the second floor of City Hall. Newsom will be sworn in Monday as lieutenant governor. Gascón, who had been police chief just 18 months, will be jumping from one scandal-ridden department to another. He replaces Kamala Harris, who stepped down to become the state attorney general.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2011/01/08/MNAC1H5VHO.DTL\" target=\"_blank\">Gascón faulted for ending training of officers\u003c/a> (San Francisco Chronicle)\u003cbr>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>In the wake of two police shootings of mentally disturbed men within a week, mental health advocates criticized San Francisco Police Chief George Gascón for cutting a program that trained officers in dealing with unstable suspects. For nine years, police officers underwent 40 hours of training apiece in how to recognize mentally ill suspects and de-escalate crises. The training was called for under a lawsuit settlement with the family of a mentally disturbed man whom officers shot to death in 2001 when he brandished a knife at them in a movie theater. More than 1,000 officers completed the training before the department eliminated the program in June. Mental health workers say police officials described their action as a budget-cutting move.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://www.sacbee.com/2011/01/10/3311863/browns-countdown-day-1-plan-takes.html\" target=\"blank\">Brown's budget plan would eliminate redevelopment agencies \u003c/a>(Sacramento Bee)\u003cbr>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>Old Sacramento was revived with the help of public redevelopment money, back in the 1960s. The city's new downtown nightlife venue, the \"mermaid bar\" complex on K Street, got millions of redevelopment dollars, too. Even the midtown loft building that Gov. Jerry Brown calls home was partially funded with redevelopment money. Now California's multibillion-dollar redevelopment industry is fighting for its life – with Brown as its would-be executioner. In the budget proposal he will release today, the governor is expected to call for the elimination of every local redevelopment agency in the state, according to a source familiar with the proposal.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://www.insidebayarea.com/top-stories/ci_17026280\" target=\"_blank\">Berkeley takes heed of DA's warning on pot farms\u003c/a> (Berkeley Voice)\u003cbr>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>It may be a very long time -- or maybe not at all -- for Berkeley's voter-approved medical marijuana farms to start growing the green.

For 18 months, he was unable to break his dry spell, despite locking himself in his studio and undergoing psychoanalysis. A dream finally helped him to break out of this period of \"creative lockdown.\" One night, he envisioned a supertanker blasting out of the San Francisco Bay and soaring up into the sky. That image gave him the inspiration to write the powerful, pounding E-minor chords that launched a 40-minute symphony, \"Harmonielehre,\" which then opened the way for him to compose the much-acclaimed \"Nixon in China.\"\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://www.marinij.com/marinnews/ci_17036398\" target=\"_blank\">At San Rafael-based chain, a passion for bikes—and philanthropy \u003c/a>(Marin Independent Journal)\u003cbr>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>While Ken Martin and Matt Adams were traveling in Namibia, Africa, a couple years ago, two of their hosts appeared with a digital camera and a photo printer.

Martin said he admired their entrepreneurial spirit, but something else excited him about what he saw: \"They transported it all on the back of a bicycle.\" As co-owner of the San Rafael-based Mike's Bikes chain, Martin wants more people around the world to ride bicycles. During the past several years he and Adams have expanded that mission beyond their Northern California customer base to Africa, where they see the bicycle as an affordable form of transportation in a region where cars are often out of reach and many people rely on walking.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-beliefs-desert-20110108,0,2708832.story\" target=\"_blank\">Interfaith group seeks to protect California deserts\u003c/a> (Los Angeles Times)\u003cbr>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>Seven religious leaders climbed out of their vehicles on a recent weekday and scattered on foot across Whitewater Canyon northwest of Palm Springs.
