Workshop update

Seventeen stories are in and 12 are in progress.

Highlights of who I've worked with thus far:
-Went with Tasha on assignment for interviews with a cafe manager and bartender for her restaurant service commentary in PB and La Jolla
-Met "Sam the Cooking Guy" with Remi at his kitchen in Carmel Valley while Daniela took hundreds of photos - no, we did NOT get to sample any food
-Attended a sermon on the current state of gay marriage in Mission Hills with Tasha and Lola. Daniela took photos from above the pews with the help of John. Ran into Peggy who was also there taking photo for the UT
-Listened to speakers at an education protest in Spring Valley with Joseph, Leonel, Daniela and John
-Drove to a press conference downtown about recycling tires with Karen on a last minute suggestion by Jose. It was over by the time we got there but we managed to get the contact info for the councilman sponsoring it
-Toured the Body Worlds exhibit at the San Diego Natural History Museum with Rachel - sickening and informative at the same time
-Read Remi's article about students trying to find summer jobs
-Gave Sofia feedback on her Border Field State Park story
