Good News from the Northeast in the Times
Ξ June 27th, 2009 | → | ∇ Highland Park |
So often, news stories on the Northeast can focus on the negative: Crime, struggling businesses, or falling home prices to name a few. Today it was nice to see our alma mater is doing well even during la crisis. Despite the fact that he never graduated from the school (unlike a few local bloggers), it looks like Oxy is receiving a bit of a bump thanks to President Obama. Read the story here.
Also, in today’s Times was coverage of the city’s Drew St. party celebrating the one year anniversary of the LAPD arresting dozens of gang members with a federal racketeering inditement. Despite all the complaints we frequently hurl at the city, I do have to give credit where credit is due with public safety. Anyone who heard Chief Bratton on Pat Morrison’s radio program last week has to appreciate his straightforward style.

I have noticed the contruction on the old Safeway and Big Lots buiding. What’s being built there? I have heard several names that might be there. Me, I really hope there’s a new grocery store, like Ralphs or Vons. I really hate Super A, Superior, and Fresh and Easy. Those stores are very not as convient like a comercial market and Super A and Superior only caters to certain kind. No offenses to any body, but I would like to know what’sbeing built there, thanks!
