Regulators: no proof of grave desecrations at cemetery
This one seemed baseless from the start. It would be nice if things likes this didn't make the news based solely on the allegations of someone looking for money. (Thursday Nov 12 | post #3)
No peace in war over trailer billboards
The trailer signs don't bother me, you see higher concentrations of them as more and more "no unhitched trailers" signs go up (at taxpayer expense) reducing the areas they can be parked legally. What bothers me is the "bandit signs" posted on telephone poles or roadside, of course the city doesn't do anything about these because it's much easier to go after the trailer signs and unlike the bandit signs where most of the time the "advertiser " is a shady web site registered anonymously it's easy to get money out of the trailer sign operators.

Carly Fiorina expected to run for Republican Senate nomination
Good luck to her but her chances are slim, running as a moderate she will be (and is being) branded a "RINO" and will lose in the primary. If she runs as a conservative nutjob to secure the nomination she will alienate the general electorate who want a moderate but will chose a liberal over a conservative when forces to chose between these two extremes. Boxer has little to fear. (Wednesday Nov 4 | post #6)

Motorcyclist killed in collision with pickup truck in Northridge
The shop my parents own is right there, they said that the paramedics were on the scene in less than two minutes, indeed there is a fire station less than 1/4 mile away from where this accident occurred. (Tuesday Nov 3 | post #11)
Costco and Westfield in discussions about Woodland Hills location
I think you are confusing Costco and Wal-Mart, Costco has a huge number of small business owners as shoppers. (Monday Nov 2 | post #22)
Costco and Westfield in discussions about Woodland Hills location
Hiring more people would increase their cost and would result in higher prices, no thanks I'll find things on my own. (Monday Nov 2 | post #19)
Area code overlay still hasn't produced a single 747 telephone ...
There was no "need" for people with 818 numbers to dial 1-818 when calling another 818 number, this is an arbitrary inconvenience introduced presumably to head off potential complaining by future 747 users; "Why do I have to dial 1-818 for every call when my neighbor doesn't". This daily inconvenience was subjected to almost 2 million people to head off possible future complaints from 747 users who don't even exist yet. (Monday Nov 2 | post #9)

My mom just called me about this, she witnessed the accident, apparently the truck pulled out in front of the motorcycle, she said the guys arm came off in the accident. Sad story but it sounds like the rider was going way too fastThis wasn't on the freeway it was on city streets. (Friday Oct 30 | post #2)
L.A. Council to consider replacing city's e-mail system with Go...
GroupWise can be a great system if it's set up and configured properly, the city is probably still running their mail services on NetWare. (Tuesday Oct 27 | post #10)
Sherman Oaks woman polishes role as an interim executive
This is the second article this month giving positive press to this group. Despite what this woman says a quick perusal of the organizations web site makes it clear that they are absolutely against guns. Here are two of the organizations five "guiding principles" http://www.wagv.or g/mission.phpSerio usly DN, when did you allow yourselves to become mouthpieces for groups such as this?

High court takes up cross on parkland
It's things like this that preclude me being an ACLU supporter, I'm not Christian (I'm Jewish) and find it hard to comprehend how someone could be offended by this cross. Even if you are going to say that the separation of church and state is an issue that is worthy of your efforts, attacking a memorial to war dead, the words "under God" in the pledge of allegiance or a few tiny crosses on the L.A. County seal are clearly a waste of energy. Militant Atheists are no better than, and frequently worse than the fundamentalist religious nutjobs, they both seek to impose their own religious beliefs on all of society. (Oct 8, 2009 | post #1)
Government studies say 1 in 100 children have autism disorders
Autistic kids don't usually act out, they are much more likely to shut down. You must be thinking of ADD/ADHD. (Oct 5, 2009 | post #2)
