No drill, baby, drill off California - San Francisco Chronicle
15.04.09
Fortunately, within weeks of President Obama's inauguration, his new Interior secretary, Ken Salazar, put the plan on hold, calling it a "headlong rush of the worst kind" that was made with "almost no consultation from states, industry or community input." Salazar, to his credit, is in San Francisco Thursday for the last of four regional meetings to listen to our concerns.
As Californians, we should speak with one voice and tell the new administration, unequivocally, that oil and gas drilling off our coast would be an environmental and economic disaster.
This is not our first battle to protect our coast. In the 1970s, President Jimmy Carter's Interior secretary, Cecil Andrus, came to California after the oil embargo to explore the idea of new offshore oil and gas leases. In the 1980s, President Ronald Reagan's Interior secretary, James Watt, made a desperate push to build new oil rigs off our coast. Now the "drill, baby, drill" mantra could once again put California's coast in peril.
What makeup school has the best reputation in the high fashion industry in southern California?
Oct 02, 2008 by blah | Posted in Makeup
I want to be a makeup artist for the high fashion industry and was thinking of attending MUD in Burbank or MKC Academy in L.A. but don't know which one is better or if there is a better school in southern California.
I'm more familiar with MUD in Burbank than MKC, and plus MUD has a wider variety of makeup styles. Not only fashion and beauty makeup, but special effects makeup. Plus it looks like it's a little cheaper. Good luck!

What agency and laws in California regulate the porn industry?
the porn "industry" is really in lots of areas. there is no specific agency with responsibility for regulating it, and that is lucky because under the 1st Amendment, there is nothing to regulate as long as content is not obscene.
