There are shops throughout our communities for every need imaginable including, of course, our local downtown areas. We encourage you to seek out your local merchants where you’re sure to appreciate an out of the ordinary shopping experience and where you can always find a fabulous meal.

The Monthly Grapevine is synonymous with local shopping and services, and like most people, we love a good deal! If you haven’t checked out our online coupons, now is a great time to do so.

TRAVEL TIME

Wave Season It is February already and before you know it, the heavy travel season will be upon us. In the cruise business, this is perhaps the most heavily promoted month of the year and in our business, it is known as WAVE SEASON. During this time of year, you will see more and more cruise promotions and you will also see more of a presence in the TV and radio media, especially of commercials for the various cruise lines.

It is perhaps the best time of year, in general, to book a cruise and many of the cruise lines are throwing in extra goodies, like beverage packages, on board credit and even upgrades from interior rooms to ocean view and, in some cases, even balcony rooms.

So, please don’t hesitate to contact us as we get promotions on a daily basis this month, and what might have been a good deal yesterday, might even be a better deal today.

One thing, however, to keep in mind is the fact that all promotions are capacity controlled and only so many people can take advantage of these, so don’t delay. If you see something that has your name on, it then call us NOW NOW NOW. We can’t create what was available yesterday once it is gone.

most exciting things to do by both day and night.

And it is also where Pearl Harbor is. So, if you want to do a lot of sightseeing and also perhaps a bit of nightlife, then Oahu is your island to go to.

Kauai is also known as the Garden Isle, while Maui is commonly known as the golf capitol of the world, with more golf courses there than you can believe.

How about the Islands of Aloha? That’s right, Hawaii is, at least now, very affordable and air fares, especially from Oakland Airport to Hawaii, are quite competitive. We’ve found, in some cases, several hundred dollars different.

You have four wonderful islands to choose from, with the most popular being Oahu, which is where Honolulu is. But let’s not forget about Maui, Kauai and the Big Island that is also called Hawaii.

Each of these islands has additional things to do, but, as you can see, they also have their known special attractions and the outer islands are much more laid back than Oahu.

One thing to know though, is you will have to rent a car to get around on the outer islands, as public transit is virtually nonexistent, with the exception of taxis, of course. Contact us today for your holiday in paradise of for any of your travel needs on land or on sea.

All of the islands have something different to offer you with their own culture and taste and ambience and scenery. We get requests to see the volcanoes and the only active volcano is on the Big Island so, if you call, please tell us you want to go to the Big Island or you will be disappointed.

be contacted at 925-679-8428 or getawaycnt1@prodigy.net. Visit their website for the latest in cruise and tour specials at www.getawaycruisesntours.com.

FOR YOUR DENTAL HEALTH

the drugs for obesity. It is extremely important to let the dentist know all the medications the patient is taking and also the drugs for weight loss.

Weight Loss Medications and Dental Considerations Diet and lifestyle interventions are usually the first line of therapy for prevention and treatment of obesity. According to the Centers of Disease Control and Prevention and the World Health Organization, seventeen per cent of children and more than one third of adults in the United States are obese. Patients who are not successful in achieving their goals by using lifestyle modifications alone, sometimes turn to dietary supplement and weight loss medications. This can cause drug interactions, especially as Americans live longer and have other chronic conditions for which they take medications, including

Medications like orlistat may enhance the anticoagulant effect of warfarin and, therefore, cause problems if the patient needs any dental surgical procedures done. Other medications, like phentramine benzphetamine and topiramate, can cause drug interactions when local anesthetic is given to the patient by affecting the blood pressure and the pulse rate. Sometimes these medications can cause numbness in the mouth, metallic taste and also dryness in the mouth. These drugs can also cause increased risk in birth defects, like cleft lip or cleft palate.

The development of medications to treat obesity focused more on the weight loss and less on the safety until post marketing surveillance revealed cases in which patients

have been harmed by these drugs.

Drugs like fen-phen have been harmful to the heart and because of that, patients had to take antibiotics before having dental treatment. This drug has now been withdrawn from the market. It is very important for patients to keep the dentist updated on all the medications they take, including drugs to manage weight loss, to prevent any drug interaction and to safely undergo dental treatment.

REALTOR IN MOTION

Selling and Buying Simultaneously Requires Coordination So it’s time to make a change in your life. Your home is too small, too big, too expensive, too far from your work or friends, or simply no longer suites your changing needs.

The challenge you face is how do you sell your home and buy another in the most economical and convenient way possible?

What came first, the Chicken or the Egg? So what has to happen? Do you sell your home first and then start shopping for your next home, or do you get in Contract on a new home and proceed to sell yours quickly? The answer to this question depends very much on your situation. Obviously, if you’re a cash buyer, you can buy

whenever you’re ready and patiently sell your home. Since most people must sell to buy their next home, you’ll need the cooperation of the other parties, your Buyer’s and the Seller’s of your next home. In situations like this, your REALTOR® can list your home or make offers on other homes “subject to” you finding another home or getting into contract on your own. This strategy can work, but some Sellers and Buyers may not wish to be locked into your contingency requirements and pass on your offer. This strategy however can and does work.

days away from closing on your sale.

The risk here is that you don’t find what you want on time and have to rent or move twice. Here again, the market dictates the risk involved.

Regardless of which tactic you use to move from one home to another, you need to have specific coordination of the details. Ultimately, your personal situation will dictate the strategy.

Planning ahead, and working with your REALTOR® can save you considerable time, money, and frustration.

Rent your own Home!

Another option involves rent-backs.

If you’re confident about finding another home, your REALTOR® can negotiate a 30-day or longer rentback, keeping you in possession “after your sale.” Buyers of your home are much more comfortable knowing when they can occupy their new home vs. waiting till you get into contract on your next home. Once you’re in contract on your sale, getting an accepted offer for your next home is greatly increased since you’re only

Save Water as Easy as 1, 2...

Living “green” means conservation of all kinds. In addition to things like recycling and better-planned resources for construction, it also includes taking steps to achieve greater energy-efficiency and saving one more often overlooked, but critical resource: water.

Water conservation has become a national priority, and in some areas of the country, it is now an urgent concern mandating reductions in usage.

Saving water starts with the obvious.

First, fix leaks, from dripping faucets to running toilets. Second, monitor and reduce the amount of water you are actually using. This includes more efficient yard watering, sweeping driveways versus hosing them down, shorter showers, not running water while brushing teeth or doing dishes, etcetera, etcetera, etcetera... you get the idea.

Next up is installing water saving products, such as low-flow showerheads

and high-efficiency toilets, which reduce both water usage and your monthly water bill without any real extra effort on your part.

How important are toilets? According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), toilets account for 30% of the water used inside a home (assuming they don’t leak or keep running). If yours is more than 10-years old, it uses about 3.5 gallons of water per flush. In an average household with three or four people and a couple of toilets, that’s a lot of water used per day. Newer highefficiency toilets use only 1.6 gallons per flush. Big difference (about 2 gallons per flush) and they cost as little as $100.

Toilet-wise, things got even better when an Australian named Bruce Thompson invented the “dual flush” commode that uses a small one gallon flush for liquids and a larger 1.6 gallon flush for solids.

While these super-johns are catching on fast, they are a bit pricey and can cost from $200 to $750. Still, they are gaining in popularity and sales are steadily increasing.

However, for those who are both water-conscious and cost-conscious, a new product introduced at this year’s

National Hardware Show (NHS) in Las Vegas meets both criteria and appears to be an extremely easy and affordable solution. And being the first of its kind, the new One2Flush conversion kit won both the NHS Retailer’s Choice Award and was honored as an Innovative Product of the Year.

For less than $30.00, a few tools and less than 30-minutes time, the new “One2flush” DIY toilet conversion kit (www.one2flush.com) lets you turn any old water-wasting toilet into a highefficiency, low-flow, dual-flush model.

In essence, it can reduce your toilet’s full flush to as little as 1.6 gallons and to about three quarts for a “number 1” flush. Just push the handle to the left for a light flush or to the right for a full power flush – and you’re saving both water - about 12% or 10,000 gallons per year - and money.

Not only is the payback period attractive (often only a few months), but in droughtstricken regions, one can be part of the answer – not part of the problem.

WHO’S BEEN SNOOPED?

Pesky Pests Gone In An Instant!

Here it is playoff time. The farmlands are still dry with no sign of rain in the forecast. Some of the local farmers have put a winter crop in the ground since the winter has yet to produce any showers and some say the drought is upon us. That being said, those little pests will probably be back before the summer months.

What a perfect time to look in on a local business that helps eliminate the problem of spiders, ants and other pesky little creatures that manage to make their home in yours.

Discovery Pest Control has 33 years of experience, 23 here in the East Bay. Having used their service several times before, this is an easy assignment. First and foremost, I have always found them to be

friendly, trustworthy and quick to respond. Their reputation around this area is solid and they are highly recommended by many of my friends. I think the thing I like most about them is there isn’t any pest they can’t handle.

Their motto “from baseboard to fence” really does cover it all. They take care of mice, spiders, ants, bees, termites, pigeons and even weeds. Like I said, there is nothing they can’t handle. In our case, it was bees and the problem was solved in one visit. They can come one time for an emergency or bi-monthly and monthly to keep ahead of any problems. I really like the fact that they can take care of weeds since that seems to be a big problem out here in the country.

They also service dairy farms and ranches by helping control those horrible flies. They use an organic larvae treatment that doesn’t harm the fowl or livestock. This is a big plus for those of us living next to a small ranch with horses.

Before you sign a contract; Before you pay for repairs; Call the Contractors State License Board toll-free:

1-800-321-CSLB

Their service teams are friendly and always on time and the best part is, they always seem to know what type of bug you are talking about, even with explanations like “it was really big and had funny colored spots.”

No matter what the question, they have always been more than helpful with all of my calls.

One other plus is you can schedule an appointment online and know they will be there when they promised. And their prices are affordable and very competitive with other local pest control companies.

So Discovery Pest Control, this secret shopper gives you five golden fly swatters for taking such good care of me for so many years and bringing such quality service to this area. The Snoop highly recommends your company to all of our readers.

Who will be snooped next? It could be you!

Spamalot includes such songs as “I Am Not Dead Yet,” “Fisch Schlapping Dance,” “Run Away,” and “The Song That Goes Like This.”

Director Chris Fallows adapted the script to be more family www.MonthlyGrapevine.com
