The California Majority Report reported that "Things were a bit cold between Sen. Dean Florez and Assemblymember Nicole Parra, longtime Kern County rivals, in an Agricultural Committee hearing yesterday. Florez was presenting a food safety bill aimed at beefing up (pardon the pun) inspection, but Parra shot him down.

I came for the bbq ideas I saw in this mornings LA Times food section, and stayed for all the other great recipies
Bon Appetite.
As a youngster as I always looked up to the man who had chosen to raise me, he had served in the navy as a cook, as I grew older, he and I disagreed about politics, he voted for Nixon, I went to the courthouse and saw John Kennedy, I voted for McGovern when I was old enough to cast a ballot, he quit talking about politics after Nixon resigned in disgrace, I bought him a "don’t blame me I voted for McGovern" bumper sticker and gave it to him, he smiled, took it and walked...
Vic Pollard, writes that the Lt. Governor position: “It’s the office that is traditionally viewed as the most meaningless job in state government, but it may never be the same if he (Dean Flores) wins”.
I don't know if "most" people agree with that or not, but this voter thinks, that the person who is elected to serve as the President of the State Senate, sits on, or appoints representatives to, many of California's regulatory commissions and...
Marylee's column is not posted on her Right Thinking blog site, which is hosted the Californian. I wanted to write and congratulate her for not insulting any one in her editorial journalism assignment for this week, she had really nothing to say, so she filled the entire length of the B1 section of yesterdays newspaper about nothing, ok, rude people should not go to school events. I know Jerry Seinfeld’s successful television show on the subject, was really funny; but Marylee...
Marylee offered up a column, in which she wrote that the juror member, known as #309, (of the Brothers trial), perhaps took his cue to basically recluse himself from serving on the jury, from the “...Rev. Jesse Jackson, who, after learning last year that a black stripper had accused Duke University lacrosse players of rape, promised to pay her college tuition whether her story proved true or not.
The fact is that Jackson told The Associated Press that his organization is committed...

Advocacy journalism
Subtle or obvious editorializing in reports, are part of the journalism. But insulting people who disagree with the journalist simply because they disagree is not playing fair, I hold this opinion because those being insulted lack the same means to counter the insulting journalist.
This type of journalism is one of life’s little frustrations, that causes my blood to heat up. Sure, I could just avoid such articles, and for the most part I do,...
