Mayor Sam's Hotsheet for Tuesday
The old, dead, Republican Mayor is back from his trip to beautiful Klamath in Del Norte County in Northern California. Thanks to Walter Moore for holding down the fort while I was gone.City Attorney Rocky Delgadillo has lost another battle. The Frisky Kitty strip club in Tarzana can continue to operate, a judge ruled today. Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Dzintra Janavs denied a motion by the Los Angeles City Attorney's Office to issue a preliminary injunction against the club at 18454 Oxnard St. and its owner, Jamal Haddad.
Local activist David Hernandez continues on in his efforts to get Governor Schwarzenegger to veto AB 1381, legislation that would allow Mayor Villaraigosa to take over the LA schools. His "Republicans for Rational Reform" have set up a blog, click here.
The folks at the Palms-Village Sun are all for a local condo conversion, except they're a bit miffed at the buildings switch to a gray paint scheme and that the developer is telling folks the project is in Culver City, when its actually in Palms.
Fresh off being booted from LA Cityview by Councilman Bernie Parks, the Full Disclosure cable television program has a two part interview with controversial Maricopa County (Arizona) Sheriff, Joe Arpaio.
Gary Toebben, writing in the LA Chamber of Commerce's Business Perspective, has a report that the Automobile Club is making an adjustment as to how drivers' insurance rates are set, creating a net decrease in many motorists' insurance policies.
We need to rethink our love affair with the front lawn, according to a new report by the Public Policy Institute of California. Inland area homes in particular require two to three times more water for landscaping purposes than their coastal counterparts. Why are we so obsessed with the empty front lawn with all the mowing, watering and weeding necessary for its upkeep? And, with the increased strain on water resources, what, if anything, can be done to change our mindset about lush lawns? The topic will be discussed Tuesday on Patt Morrison's radio program on KPCC, 2:00 p.m.
While we were gone, Martini Republic set up a new blog. Big Apple Martini, penned by TS, is an already a well-known NYC blogger. His blog Tristram Shandy has been recently noted by the Columbia Journalism Review and on several prominent progressive blogs around the country.

In todays headlines we read "LA Officials Plan to Hire 1,000 New Officers by 2010"
If we follow this mentality we will be in need of 10,000 officers by 2010 based on trend of current events.
Tell Pat Morrison to eat tofu with exlax. Why doesn't she just move to Cuba already.

Hey - is anyone else worried about WW 3 or is petty LA politics all you can think about?
If you lived in the Ghettos of L.A. you would know it's WWIII every day.

What the fuck do you know about the ghetto, you goddamn Cracker?
World War 3 will erupt any minute now. The Jews will not stop until a regional conflict erupts. Once Iran steps in, all hell will break lose.
Paul Bunyan & Babe the Blue Ox? Tacky!!!!
In all seriousness, Klamath is stunningly beautiful. California is such a majestic state, I praise God every minute he gives me the privilege of living in this land.
This blog isn't the same. But then again, the goal was met. This blog was a clever political tool to bash Hahn and insinuate pay to play and other supposed unethical actions. Look at what happened since AV won: #1 posts on this blog gradually decrease #2 focus of conversation is cd14 and constant infighting (AV = CD14) #3 because most all of current staff is AV ally or relative no one dares say anything negative about our current establishment. This was an AV blog from the get go. Hertzberg ran against AV intentionally. They needed to divide the votes enough so when Hertzberg was defeated (being the minority of the three)his votes would automatically go to AV based on his endorsement.
So there you are,the reason this blog has fallen to crap. We do need a blog that can keep the focus on City Hall, development, city bonds and taxes, trash issues, water increases, environmental impact, nepotism and lastly "pay for play".
Will someone step up to the plate and create a new site similr to the original Mayor Sam???
Anon. Well said.

Who would be the moderator? And what about official contributors?
Moderators
Won't be difficult to find the following from our community.
A welfare recipient, retard, promiscuous politician, con artist, CD 14 wannabe leader with IQ of 90 (you'll have plenty to choose from).
By "ground zero" you mean his field offices, right? Zero progress!
The Jews are going to drag us into a war of mythic proportions. Somebody stop them.
I know the fucking Mayor won't do anything, everyone knows he panders to the Jews.
Quit with the cut-and-paste. Lets put our heads together and find a way to stop the Jews from warmongering.
Could care less about the cut and paste crew or person. What I do know is Aztlan.net and racist Marcos Aguilar spew hate towards jews and capitalist USA. What do you expect from Latin Community If they're all mixed up?
Jews are not the problem my friend. Clean your glasses, windows, mind and realize terrorists (gang bangers, hezbollah, hamas, Segregationists, marxists, communists)are the threat

Jew Watch. 'Nuff said.
All the news outlets are blaming the jews for the comming catastrophe. I hate the turbanheads and the wetbacks, but the Jews will be our real downfall.
1:35 Are you Villaraigosa?
I know you sympathize with rag heads but come on.
World War III started as soon as WW II ended:
Berlin, Hungary, Korea, Czechoslovakia, Cuba, Vietnam, China's invasion of India in the early 1906's, the 1967 war, the 1972 Olympics, the 1973 war, Northern Ireland, Grenada, Beirut in the early 1980's, the Pan Am bombing, the Red Brigade, the Tokyo subway poisoning, Panama, the first World Trade Center bombing, the USS Cole, Slovenia, etc., etc. The world has always been at war.
1960's, not 1906's -- pre-coffee typo
OH SHIT What's this shit
Somebody's gonna shit theirpants today.
Villaraigosa sends his two younger children to Catholic schools, where the tuitions together top $20,000 annually....
SEND DEM CRITTERS TO ACADEMIA SEMILAS DEL PUEBLITO

Oh Oh 5:17-
I want to be the burrito wrapped smart one.
