A Pepto-pink wigged out Britney Spears was in a world of her own last night -- looking totally out of it as she drove all around L.A. with her paparazzi entourage.
Driving with no destination, Brit appeared lost as she pulled into the parking lot behind the Hustler store in West Hollywood, telling the paps "I'm scared." She's not the only one.
After flashing her goodies to the snappers, Brit started to walk into the store -- but banged a U-turn after the paps refused to calm down.
UMMM HELLO> is this enough to say GET THOSE LITTLE KIDS AWAY FROM THIS TRAIN WRECK? all that money and free time, she can afford to forget the car buying experience and get a driver with a limo.
What is it gonna take already a car accident that injures someone by Brit Brit or a Pap following her to realize she can't drive anymore and the Paps are breaking laws following her.
#2 is right this is what she does. Why not just sit home? Why not do something that makes sense? This is will come to an end soon and people will realize this person has so real problems!!
Brit is a very sick girl in need of some serious help. I think her family have tried but the end results must come from herself. No one can "make her" do anything. I think drugs have taken over her mind. Such a shame. I think one day we will read of her total demise. suicide or accidental death. Pray for her. She is in need of prayer.
She looks #@+%ed up on something. Is she going to have to actually kill someone for them to get her off the damn road. I'm afraid that will happen. Such a ignorant bitch.
That is just so totally ridiculous......no wonder she was scared. Just how many pictures does one pap need anyway? Are there no laws at all to protect a citizen? Must not be. Love you Britney!
What you guys and the rest of the Media Circus are doing is not right, you're given her everyday the atenttion she craves for, and the bad part is nobody cares anymore, Britney, Lindsey and Paris are like American Idol Winners, nobody cares, it is good for a while but now is not funny or fun anymore.
TMZ and other tabloids have to make their money sensationalizing everything. She like every other human being she just wants to go to the store but because she is Britney Spears it has to have a dramatic headline. The whole can not be told because TMZ and other make a living off of Britney Spears. She is always on the top of the page every morning. RATINGS! Unfortunetely Britney will not defend herself and that has cost her dearly. Get a life people!
I do feel bad that the girl can't even take two steps w/o the paps in her way. She has, however, brought this on herself. She definately looked disoriented. She needs help.
Pathetic! WTH? I'm adding her to the top of my death pool.... I say she totally self destructs and or OD's before Amy Winehouse... I give 'em both like 2 weeks!
She just keeps getting more pathetic and desperate. Can't anyone help this girl? It's so bad now, you don't even feel right making fun of her anymore.
She is trying to find happiness in all the wrong places.
The key to finding true happiness is to find a purpose in life and also by helping other people and animals in need.
in a world of her own last night? She's ALWAYS in a world of her own. What I don't understand is how she manages to stay out of a mental ward. It is just a matter of time before she seriously hurts herself or someone else.

Primary Instrument: Sax, tenor
"Florencia Gonzalez performance (…) was again one of the most interesting and enjoyable acts, with the right balance between school and street, between north and south, between the past and future of music." LA DIARIA
"...tracks driven by Latin dance rhythms (tango, candombe, etc) but stretched into modern realms of harmony, rhythm and form that recall the best of Mingus, Monk and Gil Evans..."
"...an array of colors... as she marries modern jazz harmony and the occasional 12 tonish classical master to the deepest folkloric traditions of the south of South America." THE BOSTON PHOENIX
Florencia, composer, performer (multi woodwind player, singer), and session musician, leads bands that range from a duo of guitar and saxophone to a 20-piece Big Band. Her Big Band has been together since 2007; playing regularly in Boston until 2011, when it was selected one of the best 5 jazz bands in Boston right before moving to New York, where she established a new Big Band composed by the finest jazz musicians of the city.
Parallel to her large ensembles (Big Band and 11 Piece Band), she leads a Candombe Project, which includes horns, percussion, singing and a lot of beautiful tunes from Uruguay and Argentina. This project performs regularly in New York and has been part of a number of jazz and Latin music festivals.
Born and raised in Montevideo, Uruguay, her music career there encompassed a lot of different styles in a variety of groups (jazz, tango, bossa nova, rock, pop, funk, candombe, etc.).
She studied classical saxophone performance in Uruguay and as a classical musician was selected in 2003 as first saxophone of the National Symphonic Orchestra. In 2004 she moved to Boston, where she graduated with honors from Berklee College of Music with a dual Bachelor Degree in Jazz Composition and Performance. After graduating from Berklee College of Music she pursued her Master's Degree in Jazz Composition at New England Conservatory, from where she also graduated with honors.
Florencia has studied with George Garzone, Joe Lovano, Jerry Bergonzy, Charlie Banacos, Hall Crook, Michael Gandolfi, Ken Schaphorst, Frank Calberg, Ed Tomassi, Ken Pullig and Greg Hopkins among others.
Currently she is also working as a music educator, teaching Music Theory, Ear Training, Jazz Ensemble and Woodwinds in various New York City music schools and conservatoires.
"…Florencia's charts have an air you may call third Third-Stream, you may call world music. I' d call it worth hearing."
"…Woman Dreaming is in most respects a showcase for Gonzalez' ultra-modern compositions and arrangements, and she doesn't disappoint. As another flag-bearer in the ranks of such avant-garde writers as Schneider Carla Bley, Hazel Leach, Christina Fuchs and others, Gonzalez has made the sort of remarkable beginning that presages a bright and productive future. "
"…Gonzalez has crafted a program of long-form works that are packed generously with arranging delights and happy surprises."
"…tracks driven by Latin dance rhythms (tango, candombe, etc) but stretched into modern realms of harmony, rhythm and form that recall the best of Mingus, Monk and Gil Evans…"
"…an array of colors (…) as she marries modern jazz harmony and the occasional 12 tonish classical master to the deepest folkloric traditions of the south of South America."

I have read or glanced through some of the books you have agented over the last few years and we are impressed by the quality and focus of some of them whose lines and harmonics challenge the descriptive resources of language. It appears to us that your publishing focus has a different angle, which does not consider the book purely as an object, a physical construct of paper, cardboard, cloth, ink and glue.
Dear Mom and Dad, you were right. I should have been a doctor.

Streets are wet, and there are plenty of traffic problems at 7:50 a.m. Monday for Charlotte-area motorists.
An overnight wreck has knocked down power lines and forced the closure of Idlewild Road, for through traffic between East W.T. Harris Boulevard and East Independence Boulevard. The wreck scene is at Highland Road, so local traffic can negotiate around that.

Independence Boulevard and the Lawyers Road-Albemarle Road corridor will be the alternate routes.
Here is the 7:50 a.m. summary:
Idlewild Road, near Harris Boulevard ... Overnight wreck knocked down a power pole; road closed between Harris Boulevard and Independence Boulevard.
Independence Boulevard inbound ... Congestion, due to extra traffic off Idlewild Road; traffic moving 10-20 mph from Village Lake Drive to Idlewild Road.

I-485 inner loop, south Mecklenburg ... Congestion; traffic moving 15-25 mph from Providence Road to South Boulevard.
I-77 south, Lake Norman area ... Congestion; traffic moving 15-25 mph from Mooresville down to Exit 23 in Huntersville.
I-85 southbound, Cabarrus County ... Congestion; traffic moving 15-25 mph from N.C. 73 down to I-485.

Power Supplies, Reviews 0
FSP Group is a little known name to most enthusiasts, primarily because the company has only recently put its own name on its products. Founded in 1993 in Taiwan, FSP has been operating for years as an ODM, supplying OEMs with units for consumer computers or supplying more well-known companies with units to be rebadged and sold, including power supplies from Antec, Sparkle Power, OCZ, Nexus and Zalman. Its own line of Fortron Source was popular, as well. Notably, FSP designed the first fanless power supply and was one of the first to have an 80% efficient model. ThinkComputers received the 700W version of the Power Mod series.
Features & Specification
- 120 mm ball bearing fan
- 80% efficiency
- 1W standby energy saver
- NVIDIA SLI Ready certified
- RoHS certified, WEEE, G.P.
- Modular cable management
- Three-year warranty
The FSP Power Mod 700W arrives in a blue and black box which is covered in lightning bolts and other jagged-edged designs. It's quite neat for a power supply box. It highlights the quad 12V rail design and SLI support, as well as its excellent three-year warranty.
The package includes the power suppy, modular cables, a cable tie, a manual, and a power cord.

What's happened to my Recovery Manager?

I am trying to restore my HP Celeron 550 laptop to its factory settings using HP's Recovery Partition. I've done this before with no problems. Now the customary tricks of tapping F11 at bootup or entering Recovery Manager in the Search box no longer work. Can anyone suggest another fix, please?

I found this on an HP forum:-
1.Right-click on "Computer" icon and select manage. 2.This will launch the Microsoft Management Console. 3.On the left side of the MMC, click on "Disk Management" and it will show you all of the partitions. 4.Right-click on the "HP Recovery" partition and select "Mark as Active Partition." 5.When the warning prompt appears, select "Yes" - Reboot and it will automatically boot into the Recovery Manager (without pressing F11).

For choreographer Julie Nathanielsz, it's about getting back to basics, about remembering where movement comes from, about the simple sensory perceptions that occur when the body moves, remembering what it's like to move the body to music.
That impulse led to "What is Common," a sleek, abstract modern dance piece for three dancers that Nathanielsz will present this weekend.

What a finish. I'll have more for you guys tonight. I got exclusives with Coach Boyle and Ben afterwards so I have some good quotes about his performance. Also, Ben will be playing in the Jordan Brand Classic International game next Saturday (which I'll be covering all day for you guys) so it will be fun to see him again there.
Montverde Head Coach Kevin Boyle on Ben
- "I thought he elevated his game [in the fourth quarter]. We're so much better with him pressing because he's more active and he can double team better than Devin [Williams] and Dakari [Johnson] can. He's a really versatile player."
- "He's such a great player because he can hurt you in so many ways. He's a guy that's going to fill the stat sheet and personally, I don't think there's anyone in the sophomore class better than him when you look at the whole picture. Especially next year with Dakari and Kasey gone, he's going to get 15-20 [points] a game."
- "He's got to get a little lower; he has a tendency to stand up and people get underneath him. He's a good shooter for his size, for the higher levels he needs to be a little more consistent. I think he needs to keep doing what he's doing and he's a pretty versatile player, it's about improving all aspects of his game. I think there are times where he tips balls when he can go get them and he can be a little more physical but overall, I think he's pretty complete."
Quotes from Ben
- "I was just trying to let the game come to me and make sure I was playing defense because I know the offense is always going to come to me. I was trying to get steals, blocks and keep my player in front of me."
- "I saw the ball go up [before the put-back dunk] so I was making sure I was going to get it and throw it down hard. After that play, I just wanted to get back on defense."
- "I know what to expect next season and I have to be one of those main players like Dakari or Kasey. We have me, D'Angelo [Russell] and Jalyn [Patterson] so we have to come out strong next year and get it again."
- "It's very helpful to play against Dakari and Devin in practice. You go against the best during training everyday and it forces you to bring your best too."

It's so very Riodney to immediately see the bad scenario and not believe that John was really interested, despite the hotness. I'm glad John got through to him. I agree with Ronon; Teyla was very sneaky :).

Awww, poor Rodney, refusing to believe someone could love him without "help". Makes me want to glomp him! Sweet story -- loved the conversation between Teyla and Ronon at the end! *G*

Nader behind in fund-raising
Ralph Nader's independent presidential bid is off to a slow start filling its campaign coffers.
The nonpartisan Center for Responsive Politics reported this afternoon that he had raised $321,700 by the end of February, including $40,200 from his own pocket and a quarter of his total take from California residents.
Nader, a longtime consumer advocate who is far behind the tens of millions raised and spent by the major-party candidates, has reported spending a paltry $43,700.
In 2000, Nader raised $8.4 million as the Green Party's candidate and received nearly 3 percent of the vote.
In 2004, also running as an independent, he collected $4.6 million, with nearly $800,000 from public financing, and won only 0.3 percent of the vote as an independent.

NBC won't go 'Legally Mad,' and what that means for 'Chuck'
NBC has decided to swallow a rather sizable cash penalty rather than pick up David E. Kelley's pilot "Legally Mad" next season.
The network has officially taken a pass on the show, about a young woman who takes a job at her dad's law firm and the band of eccentrics who work there. The showbiz trades say that means NBC will have to pay a seven-figure penalty to producer Warner Bros. TV as a result, since the network ordered the pilot with a play it-or-pay up provision.
Reports began trickling out last week, after NBC announced most of its shows for next season, that "Legally Mad" hadn't been that well-received in screenings but was still in play because of the financial arrangement with Warner Bros. There were also reports that linked its fate with that of "Chuck," another Warner Bros. show whose fate is still up in the air.
The speculation was that NBC would agree to pick up a third season of "Chuck" if the studio agreed to drop the penalty for "Legally Mad." Variety now says, however, that the two decisions aren't related and that "Chuck" is a decent bet to return next season.
At the very least, the decision to forego "Legally Mad" opens up a little bit of room for "Chuck" or another show -- "Medium" and "Law & Order" also have yet to be formally renewed -- on NBC's schedule for next season. The network will announce its full 2009-10 schedule, including its final series pickups, on Tuesday, May 19.
NBC picks up six shows, no word on 'Chuck' yet
2009 Fall TV preview: NBC's night-by-night schedule -- roughly
All of Zap2it's upfronts coverage
Come on bring back Chuck.
Actually be a major network NBC
Yea...all we needed was another Ally McBeal clone...GEEZ NBC...get with the original programming already...
Legally Mad sounds just like Eli Stone on ABC. Daughter worked at her father's law firm and there were a bunch of misfits with problems there too!!
Didn't I read last week that Medium HAD been renewed? I'm pretty sure I did.
Keeping my fingers crossed for Chuck!!
I don't really care if Chuck comes back or not but I'm glad that Legally Mad isn't being greenlit b/c it would've been a loser anyways. Hilary Duff should do a multi-cam sitcom with her sister or something.
Patricia Arquette's "Medium" received a pickup Sunday morning, though its exact order was being worked out and expected to be in the 13-18 episode range.
Should have been LIFE. NBC = No Bloody Clue to good programming!
Granted this story appears to have an actual Chuck connection... But does every goddamned story about pilot season have to include a Chuck mention?
I've said it before and I'll say it again...BRING BACK CHUCK!!!
Chuck and Life are better than all the other NBC shows combined. NBC should bring back Life and Chuck and cancel some of those other duds.

The Pacific Railroad Society acquired two Los Angeles Railway streetcars. These cars represent the ordinary and the unusual in the LARy fleet. The ordinary car is the LARy street car 1559. Los Angeles Transit Lines car number 1559 is one of sixty cars (1501-1560) constructed in Los Angeles Railway's shops during 1923 and 1924.
The unusual is represented by the Descanso funeral car. This car transported the deceased to their final resting place from the mortuaries along Washington Boulevard in Los Angeles to the cemeteries along Florence Avenue and other locations around Los Angeles.

The topic here is dance belts, the incredibly tight underwear worn by male ballet dancers and other guys who wear tights or unitards for plays, superhero, anime, cosplay, & halloween costumes, etc.
There is a certain amount of technique needed in order to comfortably wear a dance belt, which is traditionally passed down to young dancers in the men's dressing room. However, many boys in ballet are the only male student in their studio and when faced with having to wear a dance belt for the first time, have nobody to turn to. Others are too shy to ask questions about body issues.
Doctor Dancebelt's Guide is an online resource to give dance belt novices the information they need, and experienced wearers reviews, store information, and more.
It is designed to be a relatively safe place that dance studios and stores can link to, ballet teachers recommend, and parents learn from. However, it can't be totally PG rated because the care and comfort of the male genitalia is discussed here. If you're not comfortable with that, please don't go any further.

Reviewed by 1 customer Displaying review 1 11/22/2013 Flawed but Good for the Price Pros
Best Uses
Despite being a "solar" unit it does require three AA batteries to work. It does come with the wall mounting hardware in the box but not the batteries. My biggest complaint about this is the 5 second delay to disarm. In reality 5 seconds is not very long at all to get across a room and enter the code to disarm it. Very loud alarm is a plus and accurate motion detection.

Aluminum cans are the second leading beverage container type due to their widespread use in the massive soft drink and beer markets. Lightweight and non-breakable, cans come in varying heights and diameters. The U. S has historically used aluminum beverage containers with a diameter slightly in excess of 65mm. European countries generally use a much narrower size of 52mm for soft drinks and some beers. Red Bull introduced the smaller European sized can to the U.S. Since then, the options for aluminum beverage containers have taken off, providing numerous new and interesting beverage containers, including the bottle-can, which has an upscale appearance and provides a key element of product differentiation.
Aluminum-canned facts
The aluminum can – the only packaging solution that is 100 percent recyclable –has the highest recycling rate for any beverage container at 52 percent. Recycling one aluminum can saves enough energy to keep a 100-watt bulb burning for nearly four hours. The recycling rate for aluminum helps reduce the energy used to produce it by nearly 50 percent. The typical can comprises over 40 percent of recycled aluminum.
Beverage cans are no longer mere containers for carbonated soft drinks or beer. Today, cans are used for energy drinks, coffee and even wine. They are uniquely suited for dairy beverages, and for beverages with medical or health benefits, known as nutraceuticals. Drinks can be Gifts.
Beverage Container
The aluminum can has grown well beyond its traditional 12-ounce format, and continues to play a role in the beverage industry. Beverage cans today vary in shape and run the gamut in size from small and streamlined to big and hefty.
The beverage container selected for the new product should set apart it from the competitors. Several factors will ultimately determine which beverage containers will work best for a new drink - Beverage Containers Design

Ted Siefer's City Hall: Despite confusion, public comment is welcome at meetings
Gatsas told me the policy on public comments had simply not been fully hammered out. "If people think we were trying squelch anyone, that's not the case," he said.

Could full-day preschool again be considered by the school board?
The topic came up following a presentation made by Superintendent Debra Livingston based on a recent report that gave further support to the importance of children being able to read at grade level by the third grade. The issue is something of a mantra for Mayor Gatsas.
"The goal," Livingston said, "is all students doing well. That would close that gap."
The idea has the perhaps unlikely support of Gatsas and Ward 3 board member Chris Stewart, both Republicans.
"I support the mayor on all-day kindergarten," Stewart said. "If we're going to get into a discussion about busting the tax cap on the school side during our budget discussions, it would be great if we could look at that."
If you've had the pleasure of attending many school board meetings, you're probably aware that administrators have a fondness for acronyms. There's IEP (Individualized Education Program); EL (English Learner); STEM, or, ahem, STEAM, as the mayor insists on calling it, which stands for Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Math.
In one document, outlining the first phase of the federally funded Innovation Zone plan to improve 10 city schools, there was SAM, SIG and NWEA, without an explanation of what they stood for.
Livingston replied, "Yes we can." Long pause.
Langton: "Tonight?"
Livingston had to rifle through some paperwork, but then produced the answer: "Specific, Measured, Attainable, Relevant and Time-based."

Early state banks in the United States: how many were there and where did they exist?
This article describes a newly constructed data set of all U.S. state banks from 1782 to 1861. It contains the names and locations of all banks and branches that went into business and an estimate of when each operated. The compilation is based on reported balance sheets, listings in banknote reporters, and secondary sources. Based on these data, the article presents a count of the number of banks and branches in business by state. I argue that my series are superior to previously existing ones for reasons of consistency, accuracy, and timing. The article contains examples to support this argument.Download Info

Understanding Menopause Symptoms Article by Naomi Smith For a woman who is reaching her late forties or early fifties, how would you recognize the menopause symptoms? During this period, there would be noticeable changes both physically and psychologically. Most doctors do not usually give their patients with a complete list of the symptoms. Therefore, I have compiled a list of the most common symptoms so you could prepare on how to deal with them.There are actually two types of symptoms aside from the actual menopausal symptoms.These are premenopause and perimenopause. Each period has its own set of symptoms that varies from individual to another. While it is always best to consult your doctor on how you could best deal with them, you better equip yourself with ample information on each symptom and determine within yourself if you're already experiencing them or not. In that way, you and your doctor could better plan what steps to take and which menopause symptoms to deal with first.Some may experience most of these menopause symptoms or for others, they may experience it a little later or recognize it. Aside from hormonal imbalance, these menopause symptoms can be signs of health issues, which could be results from poor quality of sleep, lack of exercise, excessive alcohol consumption, excessive intake of birth control pills and stress.Most of these menopause symptoms are considered to be "today's problem" or normal by most women who experienced. However, if you have two or more of these symptoms, it is advisable to reconsider your health situation and consult your doctor. Many women once they reach forty would usually complain of aching joints, muscles pains, allergies, arthritis, breast tenderness, craving for sweets or food that are rich in carbohydrates. Depression is very common in this stage and it is therefore advised for women to involve themselves in as much activities as they can so they would avoid from being more depressed and left to themselves. There would be noticeable hair growth in the face, gallbladder pain, hair loss, vaginal dryness and yeast infections. Those are just some of the most common that women in their later forties or early fifties will tend to face. It would be helpful to help them get a proper and balanced diet, excess and get the right amount of sleep.

Student recreates convicts on the First Fleet!
About Us March 7, 2013Skye was so interested in our talks about the first fleet that she went home and recreated a scene of the convicts imprisoned on the ships.
She used straws for the bars and plastecine to make the convicts and also made the watery porridge and bread roll that the convicts would eat for breakfast. Well done Skye!

To commemorate the royal wedding between Prince Humperdink and Buttercup, BrewDog is releasing a limited edition pale ale brewed with aphrodiacs/boner stimulators Viagra, chocolate, tiger peen and horny goat weed. Geez, I thought regular beer worked good enough. Allegedly three bottles is the equivalent of popping a single blue boner pill, which is hard to justify at £10.00 (~$16) a pop. You'd probably be better off just ordering from one of the emails flooding my inbox. Still, maybe you're bad at taking pills. Me? I'm bad at taking the trash out, which is why I just saw a rat run through the kitchen. ANYTHING BUT THE CEREAL, TEMPLETON! "Damn GW -- two Charlotte's Web references in two days?" Ha -- I'm learning to read, yo! Next up: The Little Prince.
Thanks to Dave and BellaCroix, who don't need boner beer because they drink Love Potion #69 (which is real and works).

Posted by Christina Shedlock under MiscellaneousLeave a Comment
Deed Research and Conducting a Chain of Title
Making sense of deeds and property records can be a daunting task, but is often useful for genealogists wishing to find where their ancestor's homes and land were located. This is brief introduction to how deeds are organized and indexed, how to format them to trace a historic property from the past to the present or vice versa, and some important steps to start the process. This guide is geared towards resources at the Charleston County Register of Mesne Conveyance, but should be useful for research in other counties as well, as deeds across the state are essentially organized in the same fashion. There is also a list of books in CCPL's holdings that contain useful deed information abstracts.

Crenshaw, Los Angeles
This article needs additional citations for verification. (January 2010) |
Coordinates: 34°01′05″N 118°20′26″W / 34.01810°N 118.34064°W
Crenshaw (also known as The Crenshaw District) is a neighborhood[1] and district in southwestern Los Angeles, California. It derives its name from Crenshaw Boulevard, one of the city's principal thoroughfares.
Crenshaw is bordered by Chesterfield Square on the east, Hyde Park on the south, View Park-Windsor Hills on the west. It includes Leimert Park. The district's boundaries are roughly Van Ness and Arlington Avenues on the east, Exposition Boulevard on the north, La Brea Avenue near Baldwin Hills on the west, and roughly Stocker Street & Slauson Avenue on the south. The Crenshaw Strip is the area directly on Crenshaw between Exposition Boulevard on the north and Vernon Avenue on the south.
Crenshaw is the center of Los Angeles County's African-American community.
The area is part of the Los Angeles Unified School District. Crenshaw High School, which is south of Martin Luther King Boulevard and east of Crenshaw Boulevard, is the local public high school.
Charter schools in the area include the KIPP KIPP Academy of Opportunity[2] middle school, Celerity Nascent Charter School[3] the New Design Charter School (built in 2004), the View Park Preparatory Charter High School,[4] and the View Park Preparatory Charter Middle School.[5]
Crenshaw is a largely residential area of single-story bungalows and low-rise apartment buildings, with an industrial corridor along Jefferson Boulevard, and several commercial districts.
Developed from the early 1920s onward, Crenshaw was initially a very diverse neighborhood of Whites (including many Jewish Americans and other Eastern Europeans). Covenants on property deeds barred African Americans and Asian Americans from owning real estate in Crenshaw. During preparations for the 1932 Summer Olympics, Crenshaw's sidewalks and medians, like other Los Angeles neighborhoods, were planted with towering palm trees that, to this day, dominate the area's otherwise low-rise skyline.
After courts ruled segregation covenants to be unconstitutional, the area opened up to other races. A large Japanese American settlement ensued, which can still be found along Coliseum Street, east and west of Crenshaw Boulevard.[6] Blacks started arriving in the 1960s, and by the 1970s were the majority.
Since the 1970s, Crenshaw, Leimert Park and neighboring areas together have formed one of the largest African-American communities in the western United States. Crenshaw suffered heavy damage from both the 1992 Los Angeles riots and the 1994 Northridge earthquake. Crenshaw has significant middle-class areas, and some areas with some poverty rates such as Baldwin Village.
In 2006, the population of Crenshaw was around 27,600. Recently, there has been some increased middle-class Black migration to cities in the Inland Empire as well as cities in the Antelope Valley sections of Southern California. Despite the demographic shift, Blacks maintain their status as the neighborhood's largest ethnic group, with African-Americans forming 63.34% of the population, followed by Latinos (any race) at 30%,[7] White (not Latino), 16.89%; Asian, 4.37%; American Indians, 0.43%; Native Hawaiian and other Pacific Islanders, 0.20%; other races, 9.20%; two or more races, 9.32%.
Notable buildings[edit]
The Crenshaw district is known for the Baldwin Hills Crenshaw Plaza shopping mall, which is home to a tri-level Wal-Mart (formerly a Broadway store and later Macy's), a Sears and a Macy's, as well as many big stores. A bid to bring Nordstrom to the mall did not work out. The West Angeles Church of God in Christ, on the corner of Crenshaw and Exposition, is home to Bishop Charles E. Blake.
A misconception is that Crenshaw Christian Center is located in the Crenshaw district. Crenshaw Christian Center is actually located at 7901 Vermont Avenue in Los Angeles. The church was originally situated in the Morningside Park district of Inglewood on Crenshaw Boulevard at Hardy Street.
The Crenshaw Square sign, a local landmark, had been in serious disrepair for years. In 2007, it was replaced by a modern red-and-green sign that lights up at night.
Santa Barbara Plaza was a shopping center in the district. This aging center was in disrepair and is a failed redevelopment project, for which much money has been spent but little has been achieved until in 2011 when Marlton Square Santa Barbara Plaza was demolished and will bring new stores in the future.[8]
The Holiday Bowl was a center of activity during the 60s and 70s in Crenshaw. It featured a sushi bar known as the Sakiba Lounge with live musical acts. Its historic Googie architecture has been retained by the new Starbucks in that location.
This section requires expansion. (August 2013) |
In the post-World War II era, a Japanese-American community was established in Crenshaw. There was an area Japanese school called Dai-Ichi Gakuen. Due to a shared sense of being discriminated against, many of the Japanese-Americans had close relationships with the African-American community.[9] At its peak, it was one of the largest Japanese-American settlements in California, with about 8,000 residents around 1970, and Dai-Ichi Gakuen had a peak of 700 students.[10]
Beginning in the 1970s the Japanese American community began decreasing in size and Japanese-American businesses began leaving. Scott Shibya Brown stated that "some say" the effect was a "belated response" to the 1965 Watts riots and that "several residents say a wave of anti-Japanese-American sentiment began cropping up in the area, prompting further departures."[10] 82-year old Jimmy Jike was quoted in the Los Angeles Times in 1993, stating that it was mainly because the residents' children, after attending universities, moved away.[10] By 1980, there were 4,000 Japanese ethnic residents, half of the previous size.[10] By 1990 there were 2,500 Japanese-Americans, mostly older residents. By 1993, the community was diminishing in size, with older Japanese Americans staying but with younger ones moving away.[9] That year, Dai-Ichi Gakuen had 15 students.[10]
Presently, the Crenshaw Community is home to Los Angeles's largest African-American community, and remains the hub for African-American culture it has been for the last 40 years.

The LCD TV in my office started having issues with the LCD screen a couple weeks ago so I had to take the TV in to get the screen replaced. Luckily the LCD panel happened to be under warranty or I would have been out $2200. Regardless though it left me without the TV in my office which I use not only for TV but also for a second computer screen from one of my desktop computers so I was limited to using my HP w2408h monitor to watch movies, etc. One of the things I wanted to accomplish was to get the HD DVD player from my Xbox 360 working on a Windows 7 computer so I could watch some older movies on the monitor while the TV was in the shop. Below is information regarding what issues I ran across and how to overcome them which really is limited to the software used to play the HD DVD movies.
