Men Only
12.18.12
The Matador Alcove, a sophisticated, grown up version of the Little Rascal’s “He-Man Women Haters club,” but with better hair, décor and refreshments, is a respite for men who want to relax away from the ladies. The men’s only full service grooming salon in Costa Mesa also boasts a top shelf bar, and it’s owner, David Zimmerman just launched a new shoe line, Bull + Tassel, a classic tux slipper reimagined for the modern gentlemen.
The B + T slipper ($195.00) comes in a nautical inspired Skip (white with powder blue repp stripe and
embroidered white anchor), the fraternity styled Biff (navy with white repp stripe and red embroidered B + t logo) and
the country gentleman’s glen (grey, white and red glen plaid pattern). Bull + Tassel is sold exclusively at [url=http://www.bullandtassel.com]http://www.bullandtassel.com[/url] and at Matador Alcove in Costa Mesa. Open 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday.
333 E. 17th St., Suite 4 in Costa Mesa. 949.650.0015.

New Research Center at UCI
12.18.12
Exciting news for families and those affected by autism and other neurodevelopmental disorders. Former PIMCO COO, William Thompson and his wife, Nancy, through their family foundation, along with the Children and Families Commission of Orange County just gave a generous donation of $14.8 million to create a Center for Autism and Neurodevelopmental disorders of Southern California, part of UC Irvine.
There’s nothing like it in SoCal, it will be a nationally recognized treatment and research center leading an innovative approach to research and treating a wide spectrum of autism related disorders. The Center will change autism treatment and research through an innovative multidisciplinary approach encompassing clinical trials and care, research, education, awareness, and community support. Chapman University and CHOC Children’s will also be involved in The Center for Autism.
