Mayor Sam's Hotsheet for Thursday

Jeffrey Anderson, writing in the LA Weekly, has a report about the trials and tribulations of real estate developer Richard Meruelo. Bottom line, he doesn't like to be called a liar, but that's what charges in a recent court case are doing. Read more about it here.

While in China, Mayor Villaraigosa found himself meeting with former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger. Read more about it here.

The LA Times is reporting that two more finalists have been added to the short list of candidates to follow retiring Los Angeles Unified School District Superintendent Roy Romer. The candidates include David L. Brewer III, who retired from the Navy this year and Maria Ott, a former senior Los Angeles schools administrator who runs the Rowland Unified School District.

Rep. Xavier Becerra has filed a complaint with the FCC against the Tonight Show's Jay Leno for hosting Governor Schwarzenegger on his show but not Becerra's fellow Democrat, Gubenatorial candidate Phil Angelides.

Former Gil Cedillo staffer and current Program Director Coro's Health Leadership Program - Edward Headington - has added a new gig. He'll be the publicist for the Los Angeles Press Club.

The City Council has cancelled its regular meeting for this Friday. The reason? Since a number of members are in Asia with Mayor Villaraigosa, and the usual number of no-shows, there won't be a quorom. Might as well, its Friday the 13th anyway.

Blogger Zach Behrens of In The Oaks has been elected to the Sherman Oaks Neighborhood Council. Congratulations Zach!

Early, touchscreen voting starts soon in Los Angeles County. For more information, please visit Mayor Sam 2.

Does anyone know if Duke Hefland of LA Slimes is gay? You would think he is the way his puff, gushy piece on Antonio reads in today's paper. The only men who write that way about another man are usually gay. No heterosexual man would be so complimentary to another man.

Meruelo is turning out to be another paper tiger, just like Tony the Liar. But just like Tony, like father like son. Meruelo's father in Miami has been sued over and over again for being a slumlord and for bilking 100's of old Jewish tenants out of their retirement nest eggs when he converted their apartment buildings into condos. A chip off the old block just like Tony. Except while the Meruelo's are leaving a trail of real estate fraud, Tony and his dad have left a trail of abandoned families that they started.

How much stock is Tony Jr. getting from Meruelo's SEC filing?

AV should be focusing on the following. It may not be as fun and glamorous as junkets to China and England, but vitally needed nonetheless:

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Los Angeles, Chicago and New York are among the least prepared cities in the United States to evacuate quickly in case of a catastrophe, a report by a transportation advocacy group showed on Thursday...

"The big cities with the biggest traffic problems right now face the biggest challenge," said Greg Cohen, president of the organization. "Los Angeles did the worst. It has legendary traffic jams on a daily basis."

MEMO TO THE "LA ANTONIA TIMES"

"MANHATTAN PROJECT" at the TIMES

A "TOP SECRET" Project is being undertaken by the "REV. EDITOR BAQUET JONES". New potions of "JOURNALIST KOOL-AID" are under development to "REENERGIZE THE READING PUBLIC".(MUST READ NIKKI FINKE ARTICLE AT THE WEEKLY ON EDITOR BAQUET). L.A. Observe has the scoop on this attempt to recapture the readers of L.A. Daily Fish Wrap. As one who daily reads the P.R. rants of the "OLD GREY HAG ON SPRING STREET" here are some reader observations.
First, Rid us of the following;
GEORGE "RED" SKELTON
PATT "PBS,NPR" MORRISON
STEVE "SKID ROAD" LOPEZ
MICHAEL "MULTIPLE PERSONALITY" HILTZIK
AL "BLOGGER HATING" MARTINEZ
and other, out of touch scribes.

Hire the following;
ZUMA DOGG
JOSEPH MAILANDER
WALTER MOORE
TAMMY BRUCE
JENNIFER SOLIS
DANIEL HERNANDEZ
these writer represent a broad cross section of the social-economic demographics of the Metro Los Angeles area. Plus these writer bring a devesity of thought from a native perspective. NOT SOME ELITIST, NEWSROOM MYOPIA.

"HIS POLLONESS DOES ASIA UPDATE"
Last readed, P.R. Specialist,eerrrr, Scribe Duke Helfand was regaling us with "HIS POLLONESS" at a Modeling Show featuring clothing made in L.A. Seated with "friend" Labor Leader, Maria Elena Durazo, POLLO was treated to show featuring "SKINNY MODELS" (HELFAND WORDS).
THOUGHT TO PONDER, one ha sto feel for Durazo after reading article in Weekly titled "WHAT A HAND JOB WILL GET YOU", pretaining to the Leland Wong Trail. Her late husband Miguel Contreas was spending alot of time at the "BONEAVENTURE". Today POLLO tarvels to some SMOG ECRUSTED coastal city. Wondering if "HIS POLLONESS" will call out the Chinese leadership for their lack of commitment to environmental regulation???? TOUR CONTINUES....

It doesn't matter if Hefland is gay or not. That's immaterial. However, his piece on the Mayor was extremely poor journalism and more like something one would expect from the Mayor's press office.

1:11pm that's hilarious. Yup the LA Slimes are losing readers in droves because of their bullshit puff pieces. You can add to that list Patrick "in the pocket" McGreevy who doesn't research shit and writes what Parks tells him. Richard Winton anoter lazy ass reporter and Jessica Villagarrison. Remember her puff pieces showing her love and groupieness for his highness during the campaign. It was pathetic to say the least for a reporter. She made no bones of letting everyone know she had the hots for our midget mayor. Interesting LA Slimes didn't report on Lisa Sarno aka Gabbage Patch having her interim term extended like the other papers. Get rid of them all!!!!

Becerra couldn't handle his own campaign staff - at least that was the line he gave Cooley - and now he's going to bat for Angelides?! Nothing but girlie men being put forth by the CA Democratic Party this year. But then again, who's the State Party Chair - none other than the epitomy of girlie men and Becerra's former boss, Art "backseat DUI" Torres himself. Pathetic!
