"On October 20, 1984, the Monterey Bay Aquarium first opened. Over 10,000 visitors came to the Aquarium the first day it opened, and after five months, it had seen its first million visitors. And it all started with a brainstorming session by four marine biologists on a scuba trip! Dr. Steven Webster told us all about the Aquarium’s legendary first 25 years, and how everything they’d planned in that first brainstorming session eventually came to be." - Melissa from Bookmarklet

"Here in Los Angeles there is a valued relationship between the food on our plates and the ground from which it comes. From weekly stops at favorite farmers' markets to digging in at a local community garden, the bounty of the land and its role in our eating lives has a profound meaning for many Angelenos, and Americans. Local Chefs are eager to share how they use the market to influence their menu, like Grace and BLD's Neal Fraser and Ford Filling Station's Ben Ford, while some, like Border Grill and Ciudad's Mary Sue Milliken and Susan Feniger have partnered with the LAUSD to help reinforce the importance of garden-based learning and to be conscious of what we eat. The politics of eating has become a local focal point, thanks to Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa's championing a Food Policy Task Force this summer as we celebrated 30 years of farmers' markets in L.A." - Melissa from Bookmarklet
