WHO’S BEEN SNOOPED?

Meet You At The Boardwalk!

Well, this has certainly been a different winter. One day the temps are in the high 70’s and the next we are witnessing magnificent rainbows after a torrential downpour. But the beautiful ag core soil loves that fresh shot of water, especially when it is almost time to plant our famous Brentwood Sweet Corn. Great time to look in on a local restaurant that has been a favorite of mine for years, no matter what the weather looks like.

On assignment, I generally try to look at businesses with a fresh set of eyes to take in the whole experience so I can pass it on to you. That being said, our dear friends at The Boardwalk Grill in Discovery Bay didn’t let me down. It is super clean like always, and decorated for the upcoming Easter holiday season, but the outside seating is even better than my last visit. Once you arrive, one or two of the employees will give you a welcomed “hello” and are quick to come over to ask how many in your party and do you want to sit inside or out. With

the weather extremely cold on this day, it didn’t matter because the beautiful clear plastic enclosures along with the outside heaters made it super comfy.

We ordered our favorite Margarita’s with Patron Silver, which was delivered with Kayla’s beautiful smile minutes after ordering.

As usual, there were lots of customers, some regulars and some that had not been in before. The really cool thing about this restaurant is you can see the Delta from every seat in the house. The small bar is a perfect place to stop for a cocktail and appetizers and the restaurant is big enough for a large crowd. Last year we had 16 of us after a full day of boating. And, just like always, the service was great and the food outstanding. The tables are clean and tastefully set with light blue linen napkins waiting for their next guest. Great presentation!

I think the part I like most about the Boardwalk Grill is that the owners Chris and Erica Cookson built this business to what it is today. They are charming, personable and work their butts off to make the Boardwalk experience like no other. With it strategically located right off the dock to their door, it is no wonder this place has grown to be a Delta favorite. And, with the boardwalk shopping nearby, it is a great opportunity to have a great meal, shop and then walk the levee to see all the boats in the harbor. If you happen to be playing golf at the Country Club, it is a great place to collect those skins and have a cold beer after beating your buddies too.

Today our server was Kayla and she was just darling. Not only was she quick to take our order, but made sure during our visit that everything was just as we like it. Ten extra points. Fish tacos are my favorite, but this time I chose the Taco Salad (I so love their flair for Mexican food). WOW, DOUBLE WOW! Ice cold fresh lettuce and cilantro, freshly cooked taco flavored beef, multi-colored tortilla strips, fresh sliced avocado, house salsa, sour cream with great ranch dressing. And it was big enough for two, but I didn’t share. My husband had a cheese burger, that could also feed two with hot French fries. Is your mouth watering?

PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHY Unique, Fresh, Emotive & Different

So, Chris and Erica, as usual your entire crew showed that great Boardwalk hospitality, the food was wonderful, so you scored ten golden anchors from the Monthly Grapevine. It is an honor to write about you and an even bigger honor to recommend the Boardwalk to all of our readers. Who will be snooped next? It could be you!

Boardwalk Grill is located at the Discovery Bay Marina. They can be reached at 925513-2499 or visit www.BoardwalkGrill.net.

FOR YOUR DENTAL HEALTH

impotence, mortality and behavior problems.

Snoring And Obstructive Sleep Apnea If you snore loudly and often, you may be accustomed to middle of the night elbow thrusts and lots of bad jokes but snoring is not a laughing matter. That loud noise that keeps everyone awake comes from efforts to force air through an airway that is not fully open. This is one of the first indication of a potentially life threatening disorder “Obstructive Sleep Apnea.”

It has been estimated the indirect costs of sleep disorders is over forty one billion.

This includes motor vehicle accidents, work related accidents and also home and public accidents which makes it clearly a national problem. Obstructive Sleep Apnea or some form of snoring occurs in 90 million Americans according to the National Sleep Foundation. OSA is associated with high risks for coronary heart disease, high blood pressure, congestive heart failure, stroke, diabetes,

As we age and gain weight the ability of the tongue base muscles and the upper airway muscles to expand becomes less and causes the airway to narrow.

Snoring is a sign of narrowing airway.

Increase in body mass also increases airway narrowing. The continuation of airway narrowing begins in patients first as snoring and eventually may end up in obstructive sleep apnea. Continuous positive airway pressure is indicated as the first line of treatment but in patients who cannot tolerate this have the option of getting appliances made by their dentist for their individual needs, and in severe case may need surgical intervention.

Apollo Dental Care is the dental office of Dr. Sue Padavettan, D.D.S. Dr. Sue has 15 years of experience in dentistry.

Graduated from USC with outstanding achievement award for restorative dentistry and was elected member of Honor Dental Society by the Zeta Chapter and is a active member and ADA, CDA and CCDS. Apollo Dental Care supports Heritage Patriots & East County Little League.

Oral appliances are most commonly used for treatment for snoring and also in mild to moderate cases of sleep apnea.

These appliances have been shown to increase the dimensions of the upper airway passage and also activate the neuromuscuar activity of the upper airway muscles. Patients usually do need to get a sleep study called polysomnogram.

Patients also have to followup with the dentist for regular checkup.

5 Quick Organization Tips For Your Home Office

Home Office Wall Organizer

Working from home is becoming a far more popular concept in the digital age. Almost anyone in an office-based position now has the luxury and the choice to skip the daily commute and water cooler gossip for the peace and comfort of a home office. Creating an office in your home is one thing, but keeping it organized is something different altogether.

If you’re tired of sifting through the mountain of paperwork to find what you’re looking for, then consider any of these five quick home office organization ideas below.

Filing Cabinets In a previous article, we discussed the many ingenious locations already in your home for an office nook. While these allow you to take advantage of the space you already have rather than searching for a purpose-built office to add to your property, it may not solve the problem of storage.

Many documents are now digital rather than physical records, so some people assume filing cabinets may no longer be needed. But, a filing cabinet can be a great home office organization idea! It can be both a set of drawers for your office supplies and a secure place for paperwork, and a terrific home for a printer or other easy-to-access office equipment. Consider sectioning off areas for stationery and work tools, and leave the remaining space for necessary files. The best part is, most filing cabinets come with dividers that can be labeled. Say goodbye to the days when

Commercial

There are so many ways you can convert a part of your home into your office, but space can often be limited. If you’re lacking room and want to organize your home office space efficiently, consider an office wall organizer. Instead of building your office space outwards with drawers and cabinets, build it upward instead! There are plenty of wall organizers on the market to suit your requirements. Some have basic cork boards for notes, while others include shelves, pouches, and more!

Use Trays In an office environment, trays are often used to separate your workload. Just because you work from home doesn’t mean you need to ditch the very organization tips that worked well in your office. Consider adding stacking workflow trays to your home office and benefit from a more controlled and organized environment that reduces stress levels.

Planning Boards When you have several simultaneous tasks, it’s easy to get overwhelmed. You can improve your productivity by organizing your home office to include planning boards.

Premium Technology You’re only as productive and as organized as the office tools you use.. Peak productivity has a direct relationship with your office hardware, software and the technology. Consider office equipment – computer, printer, smartphone, tablet, etc. – as investment rather than expense.

Doing so will help you work smart, rather than work hard.

If you’re a telecommuter, the most crucial part of working from your home office is ensuring your technology easily and safely accesses your company’s data – be it from a shared server or the cloud.. Consider investing in a second (or even a third) monitor and technologically-advanced ergonomic furniture, so you can be as comfortable as you are productive.

Bonus Tip! Given the space, don’t forget a comfy hangout for Fido or Mittens. Having your furry friend nearby to keep you company can reduce stress and make your workday more enjoyable.

When you’re looking to organize your home office, there are so many different techniques, tips, and advice. The more organized you are, the more productive your working day is. Consider these home office organization tips and benefit from an entirely new, workable space!

For many, a wall-mounted planning board has been replaced by a digital notepad or organization app on a smartphone or tablet. However, many still need and enjoy the constant reminder and organizational benefit offered by a traditional planning board.

In the morning or before you wrap up your workday, create a list of everything you need to achieve. As you accomplish tasks, tick them off your list. Before long, you’ll find your system, your office, and your work is far more organized than before.

They make it easy to schedule and worked within our time constraints to get our truck ready for a trip over the Sierra's and even worked the weekend to make it travel ready.

Can I Get My Contractor’s License Back?

Construction, like all business, has risks and rewards. Most licensed contractors do good work and complete jobs even if unexpected events mean the job is no longer profitable.

When a job goes bad, really bad, the contractor’s license can be in jeopardy.

The purpose of a contractor’s license is twofold: first, to establish a standard of competence and second, to create a system of accountability.

Two of the biggest problems contractors encounter are difficult customers and injury. Unfortunately, if you work with the public you soon learn some customers have unrealistic expectations. In fact, some are never satisfied. Construction requires the use of heavy equipment, power tools, lifting, cutting, and climbing.

The truth be told, even the most skilled craftsman is at risk for injury. Needless to say, a serious injury can leave the

contractor unable to complete a job on schedule.

and get back to work. Bankruptcy can also help get your driver’s license back.

A contractor’s license can be suspended for failure to pay a construction related judgment or settlement. That means if a contractor is sued by a customer the stakes are high. Unless the contractor wins the suit, he or she must be prepared to either pay the claim or agree to make payments to satisfy the claim. If a contractor is injured and unable to work construction, things get behind and customers get upset. At the same time, contractors are people with personal bills to pay. This is where bankruptcy can come in.

If you are a contractor with construction related claims, lawsuits or judgments you are unable to pay, bankruptcy may be your best option. At the Law Office of Michael Primus we have helped thousands of clients get out of debt, stop wage garnishments, and start fresh through bankruptcy. If you live in Contra Costa, Alameda or Solano counties and have debt problems, contact us for a free in-office consultation. We have offices in Walnut Creek, Antioch, and Hercules.

The bankruptcy laws are the laws society provides to allow the honest but unfortunate person to have most debts forgiven. This means a bankruptcy can forgive a non-governmental construction related judgment assuming the job was bid in good faith and the contractor intended to do the work when the money was paid. That’s not all, bankruptcy can forgive some types of governmental debts and can establish a payment plan for governmental debts that are not forgiven.

Bankruptcy can forgive (or establish a payment plan) for most debts so you can reinstate your contractor’s license quick
