Castro Valley painter Richard Geiger will hold a reception at 3 pm Monday at the Baywood Court Retirement Community to display 30 of his works.

Geiger, a retired newspaper librarian who has worked for the San Francisco Chronicle and San Jose Mercury, says he has been painting watercolors for about three years.

An avid sailor and rower, Geiger says the paintings will cover many subjects, not just boats. 

The Community is at 21966 Dolores Street (off Grove Way) and the show is on the 3rd floor gallery. Just sign in at the main desk and take the elevator up.

New Patch Layout Seems Inefficient

Admittedly, it looks much nicer. It looks very very similar on both my phone and desktop, and…

Another problem: When notified of a reply to a comment I could click the link in the email to go to…Read More the article. That was not possible this time. So because a small minority zooms there computer the layout should be as it is? I don't think so. All that white space means that an article that could be read with just one or two clicks to scroll through is now going to take more scrolling to view. One thing that seems to be missing in today's world are web designers who (1) change the layout just because and (2) web designers who have neglected to consider the audience. The more I look at this layout the less I like it. The font needs to be darker than it is. the blue (like in "announcements") needs to be bolder. Overall, on a scale of 1 to 10 (10 best), I rank the new "improved" design a 3.

Why does the new layout waste nearly half of the screen? There's a wide white space on the left and…Read More even wider white space on the right. While the old layout could have been tweaked some, the new format isn't the answer. One good thing. I no longer have to sign in each time I want to make a comment. It has finally decided that I'm serious when I say I want Patch to remember me on this computer.
